00:00:00I brought you all here today for one reason only
00:00:05Foreclose the mansion my son Edward is living in
00:00:08Freeze every single one of his personal and business bank accounts
00:00:12Terminate all investments into his company immediately
00:00:17Madame Vance, if you go through with this, your son won't just face bankruptcy
00:00:21His entire family will be thrown onto the streets
00:00:26Completely homeless, are you absolutely certain?
00:00:30I want them homeless
00:00:32Yes, madam
00:00:36On the exact day my granddaughter returned from her luxury studies abroad
00:00:41I chose to personally destroy their world
00:00:44People might call me a wicked, heartless grandmother
00:00:48But nobody knows that thirty years of slaving away
00:00:53Pouring my blood and sweat into that family
00:00:56Was bought with a single word
00:00:59Idiot
00:01:01I'm done with that family
00:01:05Soup's ready?
00:01:14Chloe, honey, why aren't you eating anything?
00:01:20Here, try the BBQ ribs
00:01:23You used to love these when you were little
00:01:25You'd get sauce all over your face
00:01:30Ugh, grandma
00:01:31In Paris, I only eat wagyu steaks and fresh arugula salads
00:01:37This stuff is dripping in grease and loaded with calories
00:01:40Who even eats like this anymore?
00:01:43Well, at least have some soup then
00:01:48I simmered it all morning
00:01:50Homemade noodles, fresh vegetables, the whole nine yards
00:01:53It's good for you
00:01:55Oh my god, grandma
00:01:56Can you just eat your own food and leave me alone?
00:01:59I said I don't want any
00:02:02Chloe
00:02:04That's no way to talk to your grandmother
00:02:07Mom, don't take it personally
00:02:09Chloe just got back from Paris
00:02:11And she's really jet-lagged
00:02:12She's just tired and cranky
00:02:15It's fine
00:02:17I'll just have some myself
00:02:27Chérie, you have to do with it
00:02:29Your grandmother is a good ignorance
00:02:30It doesn't serve you to talk to her
00:02:33Mom, I can't do it
00:02:34How can this old woman be so stupid?
00:02:41Stop, stop
00:02:42Your father is just there
00:02:43And so?
00:02:44I told her to not touch me
00:02:46But she looks like an animal
00:02:47Who doesn't understand the human language
00:02:48Look at those two, Mom
00:02:49They're so close already
00:02:51Chattering away in French like best friends
00:03:01Tell me
00:03:02Who are you treated as a fool
00:03:04Exactly?
00:03:11You...
00:03:12How do you speak French?
00:03:14I asked you a question
00:03:16Who exactly were you calling an idiot?
00:03:21Mom
00:03:22What are you even talking about?
00:03:24We didn't say anything
00:03:25Chloe was just...
00:03:27She was just practicing her French vocabulary
00:03:30Practicing vocabulary?
00:03:32Embasal?
00:03:33Embasal?
00:03:34Idiot?
00:03:34Is that the kind of vocabulary you learned in Paris?
00:03:39While I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on your tuition?
00:03:45Grandma, I... I didn't mean...
00:03:47Mom, have you had enough yet?
00:03:49Chloe just got back!
00:03:51Can't we just have a normal family dinner?
00:03:53Do you absolutely have to pick a fight over nothing?
00:03:57Edward...
00:03:58I was just called an ignorant idiot by my own granddaughter
00:04:02And you, my own son
00:04:04Accused me of picking a fight?
00:04:06Is that what I am to you?
00:04:08Just a crazy, dramatic old woman?
00:04:12Aren't you?
00:04:13You probably picked up a few foreign words from the TV
00:04:15And now you're flaunting them to make a scene
00:04:18Do you have any idea how embarrassing you're being right now?
00:04:21You're ruining my reputation
00:04:23Enough!
00:04:24Elena, don't push your luck!
00:04:26You're nothing but a glorified maid who cooks and cleans every single day
00:04:30How dare you talk to us about dignity?
00:04:33If it weren't for Edward's pity, do you honestly think you'd be allowed to live in this mansion for a
00:04:37single day?
00:04:38Miranda isn't wrong
00:04:40You're uncultured and uneducated
00:04:43All you're good for is domestic work
00:04:46Don't forget who has been financially supporting you all these years
00:04:50Who feeds you?
00:04:51A glorified maid
00:04:5430 years
00:04:54I slaved away for you ungrateful monsters for 30 whole years
00:04:59I thought humans had hearts
00:05:03But all I got in return was maid and idiot
00:05:08Since you hate my cooking so damn much
00:05:10Then nobody eats
00:05:13Oh no!
00:05:14Oh my god!
00:05:22Mom!
00:05:23Have you completely lost your mind?
00:05:25Yes, I lost my mind
00:05:27Only a lunatic would sliv away for you ungrateful monsters for 30 whole years
00:05:33Starting right now, I am done being your maid!
00:05:43What kind of dramatic scene are you throwing now?
00:05:47Edward, let her walk
00:05:50Let's see how far she gets
00:05:52A penniless, useless old woman like her
00:05:56Can't even afford a single meal without this family
00:05:58Keep throwing your little tantrum, Elena
00:06:01In less than 3 days
00:06:02You'll come crawling back on your knees
00:06:06Begging us to take you in
00:06:10Mark my words
00:06:12Mark my words
00:06:13I am never setting foot in this house again
00:06:39I need to leave

00:07:40What's this investment gala?
00:07:41The chairman of the Vance Foundation is your father's ultimate benefactor.
00:07:45Every single major milestone, his promotions, his initial venture capital, it all came from her hands.
00:07:50But she's remained a complete ghost to the public for 30 years.
00:07:52Rumor has it she's finally appearing tomorrow.
00:07:54This gala is life or death for your father's career.
00:07:57Exactly, Chloe. Go put on your finest designer dress tomorrow.
00:08:02You're coming with us to see how high society operates.
00:08:05Don't end up like your grandmother, completely uncultured and unpresentable.
00:08:10Got it, Dad.
00:08:13Here we are, ma'am. That'll be 20 bucks.
00:08:21Keep the change.
00:08:35Good afternoon, ma'am. Welcome to the Ritz-Carlton.
00:08:37How may we assist you today?
00:08:39I'd like to book an executive suite, please.
00:08:42An executive suite?
00:08:43Ma'am, are you entirely certain?
00:08:45The base rate for our suite starts at $5,000 a night, excluding tax.
00:08:50I am well aware of the price.
00:09:07Madam Vance!
00:09:08Forgive my ignorance.
00:09:09You are a Supreme Diamond VIP member.
00:09:12Your exclusive private butler has already been notified.
00:09:15Allow me to personally escort you to your estate.
00:09:27Put your makeup on, get your nails done, curl your hair, run the extra mile, keep it slim.
00:09:34So they like you.
00:09:37Do they like you?
00:09:42Cause I like you.
00:09:52Welcome back, Madam Vance.
00:09:55Madam Vance, I am Leon, your dedicated private butler.
00:10:00It is the greatest honor of my career to serve you once again.
00:10:05Thank you, Leon.
00:10:07I need you to arrange a few things for me immediately.
00:10:10First, I'd like a proper lunch.
00:10:13Second, call the absolute best attorney in the city.
00:10:17Someone who specializes in massive asset protection and high-stakes real estate disputes.
00:10:23Consider it done, Madam.
00:10:30Madam Vance, the legal team has arrived.
00:10:34Good afternoon, Madam Vance.
00:10:35I am Arthur Sterling, senior partner at Sterling & Associates Law.
00:10:39Thank you for coming, Arthur.
00:10:40I need you to untangle and secure some of personal holdings.
00:10:48These assets were left to me entirely by my late husband.
00:10:51For the last 30 years, I was completely consumed by my fam, so I never bothered to assume direct control.
00:10:57I want to know exactly what I am looking at today.
00:11:00Madam, this is beyond stuggling.
00:11:03According to these authenticated deeds, your personal net worth is astronomical.
00:11:07It includes the entire multi-billion dollar Vance S. Foundation, dozens of offshore accounts,
00:11:13and a historic, hyper-exclusive private estate right in the heart of Manhattan.
00:11:29Madam Vance, according to your late husband's restructuring of the Vance Family Trust,
00:11:35you are now the sole executor of the entire foundation and ultimate beneficiary.
00:11:41From this moment on, you hold supreme command.
00:11:49I am merely a university professor, Raymond.
00:11:54I have no desire to run a multi-billion dollar N-Empire.
00:12:00For now, you will manage the daily operations as vice chairman.
00:12:07If possible, use the foundation's name to grant an anonymous line of credit to my son, Edward.
00:12:15He is fiercely independent and has a fragile ego.
00:12:19Do not let him know that I am the one pulling the strings.
00:12:25For 30 years, I was completely wrong.
00:12:29People treat your kindness as a birthright.
00:12:33The more you step back, the more they push you.
00:12:37Dignity is taken back with power, not given.
00:12:42Mr. Sterling, first order, reclaim all real estate under my name,
00:12:47including the penthouse where Edward's family lives.
00:12:51Reclaim it? Madam Vance, you mean immediate eviction?
00:12:54I want them served an official eviction notice.
00:12:57Out by tomorrow night.
00:12:58Madam Vance, they are your family.
00:13:00A 24-hour eviction will leave them with nothing.
00:13:03Are you sure?
00:13:03Counselor, you only need to answer one thing.
00:13:06Do I have the absolute legal right?
00:13:08You have unassailable absolute rights, madam.
00:13:11You are the sole title holder.
00:13:12Legally, you can evict them at any time.
00:13:14Then do it.
00:13:14Now.
00:13:16Second, freeze all bank accounts and credit cards assigned to my son.
00:13:19Cut them off completely, not another dime.
00:13:21Finally, notify Raymond.
00:13:24Tomorrow's investment gala, the chairwoman will attend in person.
00:13:32Dad, Mom, I'm starving.
00:13:34Is there anything to eat in this house?
00:13:37Eat, eat, eat.
00:13:38That's all you ever do.
00:13:39Your grandmother ran away because you insulted her,
00:13:42so nobody is here to cook for you.
00:13:44All right, both of you, shut up.
00:13:46Babe, go clean up the leftovers from lunch.
00:13:49I'll take us out for a nice dinner in a bit.
00:13:51Why the hell should I clean it?
00:13:53Your mother usually handles all this garbage.
00:13:56Honestly, Grandma is being so dramatic.
00:13:59I literally just called her a name.
00:14:01Is that really worth running away from a luxury mansion over?
00:14:06She thinks because she cooks and cleans, we can't survive without her.
00:14:11She's trying to hold us hostage.
00:14:14Too bad for her.
00:14:16I haven't even given her this month's allowance yet.
00:14:21Once she burns through whatever pocket change she has and gets hungry,
00:14:27she'll come crawling back on her knees, begging for my forgiveness.
00:14:37So, this is what it feels like to not wake up at five in the morning to slave over a
00:14:42stove.
00:14:43Thirty years.
00:14:45I finally slept in peace.
00:14:54Good morning, Madam Vance.
00:14:56Your world-class breakfast has been prepared to your exact specifications.
00:15:10Madam Vance, the Global Investment Gala hosted by the Vance Foundation
00:15:14has already commenced downstairs in the Grand Ballroom.
00:15:18Furthermore, we are currently finalizing the total asset freedom
00:15:21on all of Edward's bank accounts and Centurion cards.
00:15:24And this is the official 24-hour eviction notice you requested yesterday,
00:15:28legally demanding your son and his family to vacate your property today.
00:15:32My son is currently downstairs at that gala,
00:15:35desperately trying to pitch his company, isn't he?
00:15:38Go downstairs right now.
00:15:40Hand this eviction notice directly to his face in front of everyone.
00:15:45Consider it done, Madam.
00:15:47Also, our background checks revealed an interesting detail.
00:15:50Your granddaughter, Chloe, is currently enrolled at the University of Framark,
00:15:53majoring in aristocratic editorial.
00:15:54The prestigious International Exchange Scholarship
00:15:57happens to be fully funded by your Vance Foundation.
00:15:59She is their top recipient.
00:16:03So you're telling me my own granddaughter
00:16:05has been burning through millions of my dollars abroad
00:16:07to learn so-called high society manners,
00:16:10only to return home and use those exact manners
00:16:13to call me an uneducated animal?
00:16:15I am afraid that is exactly the case, Madam.
00:16:25In the name of the Vance Foundation,
00:16:28terminate her scholarship immediately.
00:16:31Revoke her enrollment,
00:16:32force her expulse from the university,
00:16:35and blacklist her from higher education.
00:16:38Go.
00:16:39Yes, Madam.
00:16:45Edward, I heard your daughter just got back
00:16:47from her luxury studies in Europe.
00:16:49It truly shows.
00:16:50Of course.
00:16:51My Chloe spent years in Europe
00:16:53mastering aristocratic etiquette.
00:16:54The chairman of the Vance Foundation
00:16:55is your ultimate angel investor, isn't she?
00:16:58You got it!
00:16:58The only reason the chairman has continuously backed me
00:17:01is because she recognizes my personal brilliance.
00:17:04My objective today is to lock in
00:17:06a permanent, lifetime partnership
00:17:08with the Vance Foundation.
00:17:19Excuse me.
00:17:20Are you Mr. Edward Vance?
00:17:22I am.
00:17:23Who are you?
00:17:24I am Arthur Sterling,
00:17:25senior partner at Sterling Associates Law.
00:17:27I have been retained by Madam Elena Vant
00:17:30to serve you with an official legal notice.
00:17:36My mother hired you?
00:17:43Immediate forefusion and eviction notice?
00:17:45Wait, what?
00:17:46That's our house!
00:17:47What the hell is Grandma doing?
00:17:49Has she completely lost her?
00:17:50You must have made a mistake.
00:17:52That penthouse belongs to me.
00:17:53Where does she get the damn right to evict us?
00:17:56She is the sole, absolute legal owner
00:17:58of that entire property.
00:18:00You are merely tenants at will.
00:18:02You are legally ordered to vacate the premises
00:18:04before midnight tonight.
00:18:13Your mother has lost her mind.
00:18:15Just because we had a few words with her,
00:18:17she dares to fight us for the house?
00:18:20Where is Mom now?
00:18:22Tell her to come out here!
00:18:24Mr. Edward,
00:18:26I have no obligation to disclose
00:18:28my client's whereabouts.
00:18:30Good day.
00:18:41What is Mom thinking?
00:18:43All these years,
00:18:46I've provided her
00:18:47with food and shelter.
00:18:50And now she has a lawyer!
00:18:53She deliberately showed up
00:18:55at my investor meeting
00:18:57to fight me
00:18:59for the property!
00:19:01Enough.
00:19:03Keep your voice down.
00:19:05There's so many people
00:19:06you're watching.
00:19:16Leon,
00:19:19the meeting has started.
00:19:21Yes, ma'am.
00:19:22Prepare a complete outfit for me,
00:19:25from head to toe.
00:19:28Certainly, ma'am.
00:19:30Any preferences?
00:19:32Nothing too flashy,
00:19:34but the best.
00:19:41Edward,
00:19:43soon I'll show you
00:19:46who I really am.
00:19:57Good afternoon, Mrs. Vance.
00:20:00Take me to the investor meeting.
00:20:03Mr. Vance,
00:20:04what's going on?
00:20:06I just had a few words with her.
00:20:08And she's threatening
00:20:09to leave home!
00:20:12Calm down.
00:20:13We'll settle accounts
00:20:14with her later.
00:20:17The president
00:20:18of the Vance Foundation
00:20:19has arrived.
00:20:28I never imagined
00:20:30the president
00:20:30of the Vance Foundation
00:20:31would be an elderly lady.
00:20:33That demeanor,
00:20:34that elegance,
00:20:36truly befitting
00:20:37someone worth billions.
00:20:38Indeed.
00:20:39Despite her age,
00:20:40that innate nobility
00:20:41cannot be hidden.
00:20:43What nobility?
00:20:45She's not the president
00:20:46of the Vance Foundation.
00:20:47She's just a maid
00:20:49who only knows
00:20:50how to cook and clean.
00:20:51A maid?
00:20:54Mom,
00:20:55who told you
00:20:56to come here?
00:20:57Haven't you
00:20:57embarrassed me enough?
00:20:58Where'd you get
00:20:59that costume to wear?
00:21:00Don't call me mom.
00:21:02I don't have a son
00:21:03like you.
00:21:04Besides,
00:21:05if you can be here,
00:21:06why can't I?
00:21:08Enough!
00:21:08Do you know
00:21:09what kind of occasion
00:21:10this is?
00:21:11You think hiring
00:21:12a few people
00:21:13to act
00:21:13gives you
00:21:14the resonate
00:21:15to impersonate
00:21:15the president
00:21:16of the Vance Foundation?
00:21:18Grandma,
00:21:18I know what I said
00:21:20yesterday upset you.
00:21:21I apologize,
00:21:22okay?
00:21:22Stop making a scene.
00:21:24If you keep this up,
00:21:25mom and dad
00:21:25won't give you
00:21:26any living expenses.
00:21:28I'm making a scene.
00:21:30You three
00:21:31are truly ridiculous.
00:21:32What's going on?
00:21:33Didn't they say
00:21:33this lady
00:21:34is the president
00:21:34of the Vance Foundation?
00:21:35How did she become
00:21:36Mr. Vance's mother?
00:21:38Everyone,
00:21:39listen to me.
00:21:40This old woman
00:21:41is not the president
00:21:43of the Vance Foundation.
00:21:45She's my drama queen
00:21:47mother-in-law.
00:21:51Just because my daughter
00:21:53said something
00:21:53she didn't like yesterday,
00:21:55she flipped the dinner table
00:21:57and threatened
00:21:58to leave home.
00:22:00Tell me,
00:22:01what kind of mother
00:22:02does that?
00:22:13I thought she was
00:22:14the president
00:22:15of the Vance Foundation.
00:22:16Turns out she's just
00:22:17Mr. Vance's mother?
00:22:18At her age,
00:22:19still causing drama.
00:22:21If I had a mother like that,
00:22:22I'd have kicked her out
00:22:23long ago.
00:22:24What you don't know
00:22:25is that we provide her
00:22:26with food,
00:22:27clothing,
00:22:28and shelter,
00:22:29accommodating her
00:22:29in every way.
00:22:30In the end,
00:22:31she wants to fight us
00:22:32for the house
00:22:33and even sabotage
00:22:34my husband's partnership
00:22:36with the Vance Foundation.
00:22:37Tell me,
00:22:38does she act like
00:22:39a mother at all?
00:22:39This old woman
00:22:40is terrible.
00:22:41What's the difference
00:22:42between her
00:22:43and a parasite?
00:22:44Mom,
00:22:45I've been too lenient
00:22:46with you.
00:22:47This time,
00:22:47you must apologize
00:22:48to us sincerely.
00:22:50As long as you apologize,
00:22:51I'll let bygones
00:22:52be bygones
00:22:53and allow you
00:22:53to move back in with us.
00:22:55Grandma,
00:22:55if you don't come back,
00:22:56where else can you go?
00:22:57You don't have a pension
00:22:58or social security.
00:23:00Dad has been supporting you.
00:23:02Do you really think
00:23:03you can move out?
00:23:05Had enough
00:23:06of your performance?
00:23:09When did I ever say
00:23:10I wanted to move back
00:23:11in with you?
00:23:12The ones who should move out
00:23:14are you.
00:23:15Wasn't the legal notice
00:23:16clear enough?
00:23:17The house you're living in
00:23:18is mine.
00:23:19Elena,
00:23:19have you no shame?
00:23:21You think hiring
00:23:22a few lawyers
00:23:22gives you the right
00:23:23to claim our house?
00:23:25Exactly, Grandma.
00:23:26I remember Dad and Mom
00:23:27bought this house.
00:23:28They've let you live
00:23:29with us all these years.
00:23:30Instead of being grateful,
00:23:31you want to kick us out?
00:23:32On what grounds?
00:23:34On the grounds
00:23:35that I am the sole owner
00:23:37of this house.
00:23:38Is that enough?
00:23:54This is impossible.
00:23:56Edward,
00:23:57didn't you say
00:23:57you bought this house
00:23:58before we got married?
00:24:00I...
00:24:01I was busy preparing
00:24:02for our wedding.
00:24:03I left the house
00:24:04purchased to Mom.
00:24:05How was I supposed
00:24:06to know only her name
00:24:07is on the deed?
00:24:08Grandma,
00:24:09for a house
00:24:09you've been scheming
00:24:10for over a decade,
00:24:12you're so calculating!
00:24:17I'm calculating?
00:24:19Why don't you ask
00:24:20your father
00:24:21whose money
00:24:22bought this house?
00:24:26Of course I bought it
00:24:27with my money!
00:24:29Mom,
00:24:30stop this nonsense,
00:24:31will you?
00:24:32We're not moving
00:24:33out of the house.
00:24:34If you keep this up,
00:24:35don't blame me
00:24:36for disowning you!
00:24:37Ah,
00:24:38Mr. Vance
00:24:38having such a mother
00:24:39is truly
00:24:40a family misfortune.
00:24:42Indeed,
00:24:43what kind of mother
00:24:44fights her own son
00:24:45for a house?
00:24:46She's despicable.
00:24:47Go ahead,
00:24:48insult me.
00:24:49The harsher you are now,
00:24:51the harder you'll cry later.
00:24:52Edward,
00:24:53I really want to see
00:24:55if you'll still have
00:24:55that attitude
00:24:56when you learn
00:24:57my true identity.
00:24:58Elena,
00:24:59you think you can
00:25:00kick us out?
00:25:01I'm telling you,
00:25:02no way!
00:25:03Withdraw that
00:25:04ridiculous legal notice now,
00:25:06or I'll never
00:25:06let this go!
00:25:07Never let it go?
00:25:09Perfect.
00:25:10I don't plan
00:25:11on letting you
00:25:12off either!
00:25:16Mom!
00:25:17What else
00:25:18do you want to do?
00:25:19Ma'am,
00:25:20I just received
00:25:21a call from
00:25:22Attorney Arthur.
00:25:23He said he has
00:25:24completed the freeze
00:25:25on all bank accounts
00:25:27under your son's name.
00:25:30What did you say?
00:25:32Freeze all my accounts?
00:25:34That's right.
00:25:35I've been your servant
00:25:36for 30 years,
00:25:38wasting most of my life.
00:25:39I'm going to get it
00:25:40all back with interest.
00:25:42Elena,
00:25:42who do you think you are?
00:25:44You're just an old woman
00:25:45who only knows
00:25:46how to cook and clean.
00:25:47You think you can freeze
00:25:48Edward's bank accounts?
00:25:49Do you have
00:25:49that kind of power?
00:25:53How is this possible?
00:25:55My accounts,
00:25:55they're actually frozen?
00:25:57Frozen?
00:26:00Frozen?
00:26:00Frozen?
00:26:03Frozen?
00:26:10How can this be?
00:26:12Elena,
00:26:13what have you done?
00:26:15Why the rush?
00:26:17That's just
00:26:18personal accounts.
00:26:19They're still
00:26:20his company accounts.
00:26:26Hello?
00:26:28Hello?
00:26:28Mr. Vance,
00:26:29we have a problem.
00:26:30The company accounts
00:26:30have been frozen.
00:26:31and we can't access
00:26:32a single dollar.
00:26:35What?
00:26:38Didn't they say
00:26:40Mr. Vance's mother
00:26:41is just an old woman
00:26:42who does housework?
00:26:43What's going on?
00:26:45She just casually froze
00:26:47all of Mr. Vance's accounts
00:26:48and company funds?
00:26:50Could she really be
00:26:51the president
00:26:51of the Vance Foundation?
00:26:57Impossible!
00:26:58Mom,
00:26:58what methods
00:26:59did you use?
00:27:00the methods
00:27:01don't matter.
00:27:02What matters
00:27:04is this is the price
00:27:05you should have paid!
00:27:08Grandma,
00:27:09you're being so petty!
00:27:11Yes,
00:27:12I admit
00:27:12I was wrong first,
00:27:13but I apologized!
00:27:15Besides,
00:27:16what good does
00:27:16freezing dad's accounts
00:27:17do you?
00:27:18If dad has no money,
00:27:20you won't even have
00:27:21living expenses!
00:27:23Living expenses.
00:27:25In your eyes,
00:27:26must I,
00:27:27Elena Vance,
00:27:28depend on him
00:27:29for support?
00:27:30Isn't that the case?
00:27:32You've been living
00:27:33off us for free
00:27:34all these years.
00:27:35Hasn't everything
00:27:36you spent
00:27:37put in money
00:27:37my dad earned?
00:27:38I spent his money?
00:27:40What if I told you
00:27:42that for the past
00:27:4230 years,
00:27:43everything your family
00:27:45has,
00:27:45including your father's
00:27:46company,
00:27:47his career,
00:27:48even your education
00:27:49at that elite
00:27:50French academy,
00:27:51I paid for it all.
00:28:02You've truly lost
00:28:04your mind!
00:28:05You paid for it?
00:28:06You really think
00:28:07you're the president
00:28:08of the Vance Foundation?
00:28:09Exactly!
00:28:11Back then,
00:28:12dad spent a fortune
00:28:13pulling strings
00:28:14to get me into
00:28:15that prestigious
00:28:16French academy.
00:28:17Now it's become
00:28:18your achievement!
00:28:30What are you doing?
00:28:37Don't think speaking
00:28:38a little French
00:28:38makes you superior.
00:28:40You think I don't
00:28:40understand?
00:28:42The biggest regret
00:28:43of my life
00:28:44is sending you
00:28:45to that elite
00:28:46French academy.
00:28:47Not only did you
00:28:48pick up bad habits,
00:28:49but you also think
00:28:50you're better
00:28:51than everyone else.
00:28:52Let me tell you,
00:28:53I won't indulge you
00:28:54anymore!
00:28:55Dad!
00:28:57Dad,
00:28:58look at her!
00:29:03Mom!
00:29:04Enough!
00:29:05What do you want today?
00:29:08Chloe studied
00:29:08at one of the most
00:29:09prestigious academies
00:29:10in France
00:29:11and even got
00:29:11a scholarship.
00:29:13What more
00:29:14do you want?
00:29:15Top student?
00:29:17Someone who
00:29:18constantly insults
00:29:19others in French
00:29:20is that your
00:29:21so-called elite
00:29:22education?
00:29:23But it doesn't matter.
00:29:25Her privileged status
00:29:26will soon be gone too.
00:29:28What do you mean?
00:29:30Is there a Chloe Vance
00:29:32here?
00:29:32You have an urgent
00:29:33delivery from France.
00:29:35Please sign here.
00:29:38For me?
00:29:53Chloe?
00:29:54What is this?
00:29:56I don't know.
00:41:35Je t'ai dit que je t'ai dit.
00:41:36Tu ?
00:41:37Elena, tu es pratiquement sur ta mort.
00:41:39Le chef de la Vance Foundation ?
00:41:40Tu penses que nous sommes idiotes ?
00:41:42Grandma, tu n'as jamais dit que tu es une femme dramaqueen ?
00:41:44Dad, tu n'as qu'elle qu'elle qu'elle qu'elle soit.
00:41:46La avoir une grand-mère comme elle est tellement embarrasse.
00:41:48Qu'est-ce que vous deux attendez ?
00:41:49Vous avez entendu ?
00:41:50J'ai l'écouté !
00:41:50J'ai l'écouté !
00:41:50Tu n'as pas de vous arrêter.
00:42:07Vice-President Raymond est ici.
00:42:08Où est-il l'écouté de la Vance Foundation ?
00:42:12Vice-President ?
00:42:13Vice-President Raymond, merci de Dieu que vous êtes ici.
00:42:18J'ai appelé vous tellement de fois, mais vous n'avez jamais apprécié...
00:42:22Edward, la Vance Foundation a terminé sa partenaire avec votre compagnie.
00:42:27Ne m'appelle pas encore.
00:42:30Vice-President Raymond, ce n'est pas de l'écouté.
00:42:33Au moins, me dit pourquoi.
00:42:37Vice-President Raymond,
00:42:38Did Edward's mother say something to you ?
00:42:40Is that why you're ending this ?
00:42:41Don't believe a word she says !
00:42:43She's a jinx who hates seeing our family happy !
00:42:47You have no idea !
00:42:52We've fed her and housed her all these years,
00:42:55and look what she does.
00:42:56She hires lawyers to fight us for the house.
00:43:00She reports her own granddaughter to get her expelled.
00:43:04What are we supposed to do with a mother-in-law like that ?
00:43:08So you're saying this is all her fault ?
00:43:11Exactly !
00:43:12If you don't believe me, ask these people !
00:43:14They'll tell you what my mom's really like !
00:43:15It's true, we can all vouch for Mr. Vance.
00:43:17That old woman is impossible !
00:43:20She said she'd make his whole family miserable !
00:43:22What kind of mother does that ?
00:43:28All of you, shut up !
00:43:40I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
00:43:43What ? The chair ?
00:43:45The chair ?
00:43:48Ray, long time no see.
00:43:55Chair, welcome back to the Vance Foundation.
00:43:58Wait, did I hear that right ?
00:43:59Vice-President Raymond called her chair ?
00:44:03Is this old woman actually the head of the Vance Foundation ?
00:44:08Vice-President Raymond, you must have the wrong person.
00:44:12My mom ?
00:44:14How could she be the chair ?
00:44:15Why couldn't she be ?
00:44:17Edward, use your head.
00:44:20If it weren't for your mother, why do you think the Foundation funded your company all these years ?
00:44:30No way ! That's impossible !
00:44:33But she was just a regular office worker back then.
00:44:37If she hadn't said that, you would have run the Foundation into the ground years ago.
00:44:42She secretly funded your company, gave you everything you ever wanted, all to protect your pride.
00:44:50And how did you repay her ?
00:44:52I...
00:44:54Mom, I'm sorry. I was wrong.
00:44:57I'll have Chloe apologize.
00:44:59Just tell Raymond to unfreeze my accounts, or my company will collapse.
00:45:17Save your apologies. I don't want them.
00:45:20Besides, you're not my son anymore, and she's not my granddaughter.
00:45:30Mom...
00:45:31Edward, the chair gave up everything at the Foundation to slave away for your family.
00:45:38She did manly.
00:45:40She did all the housework, cooked, cleaned, raised your kid.
00:45:46And did you ever show her even basic respect ?
00:45:48You learned a few French words and used them to call your own grandma an idiot.
00:45:52You deserve everything that's happening to you.
00:46:02No wonder she's been so tough, fighting for the house, freezing accounts.
00:46:06Turns out Edward and his family are the ungrateful leeches.
00:46:09I thought she was just being unreasonable at first, but this whole family is terrible.
00:46:14She slaved away as their unpaid maid and got called an idiot for it.
00:46:19She was treated worse than a part-time cleaner.
00:46:23Vice President Raymond is right. They brought this on themselves.
00:46:28They had an amazing mom and took her for granted.
00:46:34Now, it's too late to fix it.
00:46:38Mom, you can't do this to me. I'm your own son. Chloe's your granddaughter. Give us another chance.
00:46:46Yeah, Mom. If we'd known you ran the Foundation, we never would have treated you this way.
00:46:55So if I was just a housewife who cooks and cleans, I deserve to be called an idiot ?
00:47:01Grandma, I didn't mean it. I just didn't want to eat. And you kept pushing me.
00:47:07Enough. Ray, get them out of here. I don't want to see them again.
00:47:13And make sure they're out of my house by the end of today.
00:47:17Understood.
00:47:33Mom. Mom, you can't do this to us. Mom.
00:47:40Ray, take me back to the Foundation. I need to be alone.
00:47:44Yes, Chair.
00:47:47Someone.
00:47:56We'll be here tonight.
00:47:56You are.
00:47:57We'll be here.
00:47:57Mom.
00:48:08We'll be here.
00:48:09We'll be here.
00:48:09Bye-bye.
00:50:40The priority right now is Chloe's scholarship. Where are we going to come up with that much money?
00:50:45By the time we figure it out, they'll have already sued her. Here's the plan. I'll sell all the bags
00:50:51and jewelry you bought me. That should cover the scholarship.
00:50:55But getting expelled, that'll ruin Chloe's future.
00:51:07Wait! I've got it! I know a linguistics professor at Columbia. I can ask him to help transfer Chloe there.
00:51:14If she gets her degree from Columbia, her future will be fine.
00:51:18Really? That's awesome! Okay, so Chloe's situation might work out. But what about the company?
00:51:28If there's no other way, I'll have to beg that old woman.
00:51:52Elena? Is it really you?
00:51:54Oh, President Lyndon. It's been so long.
00:52:08Far too long. Welcome back.
00:52:19Alayna, ever since you resigned, I've hoped you'd come back to teach.
00:52:23I never thought it would take 30 years. So, would you consider coming back?
00:52:36President Lyndon, it's been 30 years since I stood in front of a classroom. I'm worried I...
00:52:42Professor Vance, don't sell yourself short. You were the first scholar in the U.S. to earn international translation certification
00:52:52in seven languages.
00:52:55What do you have to worry about?
00:52:57How about this? I have a Russian class coming up, and a student returning from France is coming about transferring.
00:53:03Why don't you cover my class for me, Professor Vance? It'll help you get back in the swing of things.
00:53:13I... I...
00:53:15Are you sure I can do that?
00:53:18You'll never know until you try. The student and her parents are already in my office.
00:53:24I'll come take over once I'm done with them.
00:53:28All right. If you insist.
00:53:40Professor White.
00:53:42Sorry to keep you waiting. Did you bring all the paperwork?
00:53:44Everything's here.
00:53:49Expelled from Sarbol University?
00:53:56This won't work.
00:53:58Columbia doesn't accept students spelled from top-themed universities like that.
00:54:04You should leave.
00:54:07What?
00:54:11Professor White, isn't there any way to make an exception? My daughter is extremely talented.
00:54:19Talented? Then why was she expelled?
00:54:26Well...
00:54:27Professor White, my daughter already passed Intermediate French.
00:54:32She has a real, a real gift for languages. Please, just help us.
00:54:39Intermediate French?
00:54:45All right. A professor fluent in seven languages is rejoining Columbia today.
00:54:52Her French is the best in the entire department.
00:54:54If she approves of your daughter and writes her a recommendation, the school might make an exception.
00:55:02Really? Professor White, please take us to meet her right now.
00:55:07Professor Van is covering my class right now. Come on.
00:55:13Chloe, you need to impress her. Professor White says she's won tons of international awards.
00:55:19If you become her student, she'll set you up for life.
00:55:28Relax, Dad. My French is great. I'll blow her away. She'll be super impressed.
00:55:33Good morning, everyone. Today I am Professor White. Let me introduce you to her.
00:55:47Her Russian pronunciation is perfect. Look at the back. The president and all the linguistics professors are here.
00:55:54Who is this woman?
00:55:55Oh my gosh. I remember now. She's the legendary professor who got certified in seven languages all at once.
00:56:02I can't believe we're actually in her class.
00:56:06Keep your voices down. Don't interrupt Professor Vance.
00:56:10Grandma?
00:56:16Chloe, what are you talking about?
00:56:18Nothing. I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:56:23Wow. Her Russian handwriting is amazing. No grammar mistakes at all. And it's so smooth.
00:56:30And it's so pretty. You'd never guess it's not her first language.
00:56:37Mom, that back looks just like grandma's.
00:56:44Don't be ridiculous. Your grandma can barely handle laundry and cooking. There's no way she knows Russian.
00:56:59That's Professor Vance Foundation now. Deep down. Isn't every fine. She's still just a housewife.
00:57:08There's no way she's a Columbia professor. That's Professor Vance for you.
00:57:15Even after 30 years away from the classroom, her blackboard work is still flawless.
00:57:24Professor White, she must be the top linguistics professor at Columbia now, right?
00:57:30Coming back to teach at her age is really impressive.
00:57:35She was a distinguished tenured professor 30 years ago.
00:57:41Sadly, she gave up her career for her family.
00:57:48But it's never too late to come back.
00:57:52All right, everyone. That's the core material for today.
00:57:56Now, let's go over the key features of Russian grammar.
00:58:01Mom?
00:58:06The hardest part of Russian grammar is noun declaration and verb convigination.
00:58:12Take this sentence, for example.
00:58:16Grandma is a Columbia professor? No wonder she understood me when I spoke French.
00:58:22How many more secrets is this old woman hiding?
00:58:26Dad, what do we do now? Grandma will never write me a recommendation.
00:58:32We'll just have to beg her later.
00:58:36You were always her favorite.
00:58:40If you say nice things and apologize, she might forgive us.
00:58:46Can you please be quiet? You're disrupting Professor Vance's class.
00:58:50Sorry about that.
00:58:55All right, everyone. That's all for today's Russian class.
00:58:59Be sure to finish the grammar exercises for homework.
00:59:03Class dismissed.
00:59:07Professor Vance, that was amazing. I'm definitely coming to your next class.
00:59:11Great. You're always welcome.
00:59:19Professor Vance, after all these years, your expertise is still as sharp as ever.
00:59:25I know. I learned so much just sitting in on your class.
00:59:29Oh, stop. I was so nervous. It's been 30 years since I taught.
00:59:42Professor Vance, I'd like you to meet this student. She just returned from studying in France at-
00:59:47No need.
00:59:49I know exactly who she is.
00:59:57Grandma.
00:59:58Don't call me Grandma. I've cut ties with your father, and I have no granddaughter like you.
01:00:06Wait. What's going on here?
01:00:08Mom, how can you be so cold? You already got her expelled from Sarom. If she can't transfer to
01:00:14Columbia, her future is ruined. Even if you disown me, she's still your granddaughter.
01:00:18That's right. Elena, you will write Chloe a recommendation letter today.
01:00:24Sorry, but she doesn't deserve a recommendation from me.
01:00:31Grandma, why? I already apologized. Why won't you forgive me?
01:00:40You're almost 70. Can't you just let it go?
01:00:44Let it go? Chloe, you don't get it.
01:00:48Columbia is one of the best schools in the country.
01:00:52Every student here excels academically and has good character.
01:00:57Do you really think you belong here? Elena, that's enough.
01:01:01Chloe isn't that bad. You turned our whole lives upside down over one little insult.
01:01:06For someone your age, you hold a mean grudge.
01:01:10Say what you want. Columbia will never accept her.
01:01:14You're just one professor. You don't speak for the whole university.
01:01:19Chloe, we don't need her letter. We'll go straight to the president.
01:01:25With your skills, he'll make an exception for you.
01:01:29No need. I am the president, and I stand by Professor Vance.
01:01:34If she says no, then the answer is no.
01:01:39What?
01:01:46Why?
01:01:48Dr. Linden, my daughter has an extraordinary gift for languages.
01:01:53She earned multiple honors while studying at the Servo in Paris.
01:01:57Yes, Mr. Vance, your daughter is not being rejected because of a personal disagreement.
01:02:02Her revoked scholarship, disciplinary record, and conduct during this meeting
01:02:07make her ineligible for transfer consideration at Columbia.
01:02:10This!
01:02:11There is something else you clearly don't know.
01:02:15Thirty years ago, your mother, Elena Vance, was one of Columbia's most distinguished
01:02:21and eight professors in the Department of Languages and Cultures.
01:02:26My mother was a tenured professor at Columbia?
01:02:30Professor Vance's judgment is respected by every person in this room.
01:02:33If even she has serious concerns about Chloe's character, that only confirms what the record
01:02:38already shows. Chloe's transfer request is denied. This decision is final. Please leave.
01:02:44But Dr. Linden...
01:02:46There is nothing more to discuss. Professor White, please show them out.
01:02:50Mr. Vance, this meeting is over. Columbia will not be admitting Chloe. Please leave.
01:02:54Professor White! Leave. Now.
01:03:05Dr. Linden, I'm sorry you and the other professors had to witness that.
01:03:10You left Columbia all those years ago to take care of them, didn't you?
01:03:19After seeing how they treat you, I can't help feeling that all those sacrifices were wasted on the wrong people.
01:03:28It's all in the past now. They are no longer part of my life.
01:03:43Edward, you promised you could get Chloe into Columbia. What are we supposed to do now?
01:03:49How should I know? I had no idea my mother had been a tenured professor here.
01:03:53This is all grandma's fault. She got my scholarship rebate, pushed the Soron to dismiss me from the program,
01:03:59destroyed dad's company and left us without a home. I never knew she could be this calculating.
01:04:07What is it?
01:04:11What did you just say?
01:04:14The original funding came from my father's company?
01:04:22Edward, what's going on? What did they say?
01:04:25That was the lawyer handling my father's estate. He said that when my father passed,
01:04:31he left behind a substantial enderritance. But my mother used all of it to fund a scholarship
01:04:37at Columbia in my father's name. So all this time, we've been living in poverty while she was sitting
01:04:47on my father's fortune using it to fund some scholarship. She never told me any of this.
01:05:00Edward, are you saying the Vance Foundation was built with money your father left behind?
01:05:05Exactly. My father sold his company before he died and transferred the proceeds into the foundation.
01:05:10Elena kept that from us for 30 years. Then you should have inherited part of it. She had no right
01:05:16to keep every dollar under her control. No wonder grandma never told us. She was afraid we'd claim
01:05:22grandpa's estate. We are not letting this go. She needs to hand over at least 90%.
01:05:31Mom, Dad, I know how to make grandma give us the money willingly.
01:05:35What are you planning?
01:05:38We make sure the whole world hears our side first.
01:05:48Professor Vance, you're here early again.
01:05:50I have an early class. It's only my third day back. I can't be late already.
01:06:06She looks harmless. I can't believe she left her own son and granddaughter with nothing.
01:06:12Her granddaughter posted everything. She says Professor Vance took her late husband's entire
01:06:17estate and made the family homeless. And Columbia still lets someone like that teach?
01:06:31Madame Chair, we have a serious problem.
01:06:35We have a serious problem.
01:06:37One day back.
01:06:54Ray, what happened?
01:07:04Edward's family forced their way onto the road,
01:07:07Ils disent qu'ils ont mis en train de couper le tout en ligne.
01:07:15Ils disent qu'ils ont mis en train de rouler Mr. Vance's estate,
01:07:18ont mis en train de rouler Edward's company,
01:07:20et ont mis en train de rouler l'homeless.
01:07:26NYPD est en train de faire les détails.
01:07:28Tu veux que je puisse avoir la sécurité de l'homper de l'homper de l'homper de l'homper
01:07:32de l'homper?
01:07:35Non.
01:07:37Ne t'en touche pas.
01:07:39Attends pour moi.
01:07:48La classe n'a pas commencé, où est-ce que tu vas?
01:07:51Ne t'en souviens, tu es partout sur la Internet.
01:07:55Nous ne voulons les enseignants de quelqu'un qui va détruire sa famille contre l'argent.
01:08:14Prof. Vance, est-ce que tu as-tu ?
01:08:17President Linden, je peux expliquer.
01:08:20Je sais que les accusations de l'homper de l'homper de l'homper de l'homper de l'homper
01:08:24de l'homper,
01:08:25mais la université a reçu des milliers de complains,
01:08:29et la situation est dérruptant vos classes.
01:08:31Take the rest of the day off.
01:08:33I'll have the university review the facts independently.
01:08:37Handle the emergency first, then come back.
01:08:48Thank you.
01:08:51I will bring back the truth.
01:09:16Madame Chair,
01:09:17look at the roof.
01:09:27I'm sorry for taking up everyone's time,
01:09:31but my family has nowhere else to turn.
01:09:35Columbia professor and chairwoman of the Vance Foundation.
01:09:40My grandmother is a...
01:09:42She cut my grandfather's estate,
01:09:43bankrupt my father's company,
01:09:45and put us out on the street.
01:09:49With a mother-in-law like her,
01:09:52we have nothing left to live for.
01:09:55What kind of grandmother does this to her own family?
01:09:58Columbia should fire her immediately,
01:10:01find her address,
01:10:02make her answer for this.
01:10:05This time,
01:10:06I'll destroy you
01:10:07before you can fight back.
01:10:09She lived in our home for years
01:10:11and never lifted a finger.
01:10:14My parents waited on her every day,
01:10:16and this is how she repaid us?
01:10:24She's lying about everything.
01:10:35I only took back what belonged to me.
01:10:38I was ready to cut them off and walk away.
01:10:41But if they want to turn lies into a public trial,
01:10:45I'll stay until the final verdict.
01:10:50Take me upstairs.
01:10:53Go to the next one.
01:10:54Go to the next couple lessons!
01:10:56Go upstairs!
01:10:56Merci.
