Transcript

00:00:00Mi esposa pidió divorciar.

00:00:02Me acuerdo a signar todo.

00:00:05Allí me pidió, era mantener mis dos chicos.

00:00:08Pero en la juventud, él me pintó todo y me pintó como una madre maldita.

00:00:11Y luego mis chicos dijeron,

00:00:13Si tu mamá y papá vivían aparte de ahora, ¿quién le gustaría vivir con?

00:00:16Mi honor, ¿puedo te contar un secreto?

00:00:18Something que incluso mi mamá no sabe.

00:00:29That's the man I married ten years ago.

00:00:31Yesterday we were still eating at the same table.

00:00:34Today he's here trying to take my own children away from me.

00:00:36Don't worry, Mr. Anderson, everything you asked for is in place.

00:00:39We've got this case in the bag.

00:00:40Ten years of marriage.

00:00:42He lives in a mansion, drives luxury cars, and spends a fortune on another woman.

00:00:46But somehow, a new coat for his wife was too much to ask.

00:00:50I'll take the divorce.

00:00:51I don't want a single tenny from him.

00:00:53But my boys, I'm keeping both of them.

00:00:56And where is counsel for the respondent?

00:01:00Your honor, I don't have an attorney.

00:01:02I'm representing myself.

00:01:05You can't even afford a lawyer, and you think you can fight me for custody?

00:01:08You're way out of your league.

00:01:11Counsel for the petitionate, you may proceed.

00:01:14The petitioner, Charles Anderson, is seeking dissolution of his marriage, Miller,

00:01:17as well as to their two minor children, Jaden and Jasper Anderson.

00:01:20On what grounds?

00:01:21First, the respondent has repeatedly failed to provide adequate supervision for the children.

00:01:25We have a written statement from the family nanny, Betty Sullivan.

00:01:28On multiple occasions, the respondent left both minor children home alone for hours at a time,

00:01:32once for more than six hours.

00:01:34Six hours?

00:01:35When did I ever leave them alone that long?

00:01:40Second, the respondent has demonstrated serious emotional instability.

00:01:44On multiple occasions, she has thrown and smashed objects

00:01:48and had screaming, crying outbursts in front of the children.

00:01:51That kind of behavior poses a serious threat to their emotional well-being.

00:01:56I smashed things?

00:01:58He's the one who did that.

00:02:00This place looks like a damn pigsty.

00:02:02Are you blind or are you just that lazy?

00:02:03The boys wanted me to play with them after school.

00:02:05I'll clean up sooner next time.

00:02:07Next time? Next time?

00:02:08Is that all you ever know how to say?

00:02:09You don't work.

00:02:10You don't earn a dime.

00:02:11I pay for everything.

00:02:12And you can't even handle something this simple?

00:02:17You're useless.

00:02:18Without me, you're nothing.

00:02:26Your Honor, I wasn't the one smashing things third.

00:02:29The respondent has also been in frequent contact with another individual,

00:02:33giving my client reasonable grounds to suspect that she engaged in an inappropriate relationship

00:02:37during the marriage.

00:02:39These are the respondent's phone records.

00:02:41In January alone, she spoke 27 times with a contact whose number ends in 3879.

00:02:46The longest call lasted 43 minutes.

00:02:493879?

00:02:50That's Michelle.

00:02:51Your Honor, Michelle's a woman.

00:02:53She was my college roommate.

00:02:54She's an attorney.

00:02:55I only called her because I needed advice about the divorce and what might happen with custody.

00:02:59Mrs. Miller, you'll have an opportunity to respond.

00:03:01Please take your seat.

00:03:03Given her repeated neglect, emotional outbursts, and suspected affair,

00:03:08Mrs. Miller is clearly unfit to have custody of these children.

00:03:10No, that's not true.

00:03:13Mr. Anderson owns real estate and multiple vehicles,

00:03:15and his company is financially successful.

00:03:17He has more than sufficient means to provide for both children.

00:03:20We therefore ask the court to award custody of Jaden and Jasper to their father.

00:03:24Keep losing your temper, Sophia.

00:03:26The more worked up you get, the more unfit you look.

00:03:28I don't make a move unless I already know I'm going to win.

00:03:31Mrs. Miller, you may respond now.

00:03:33Your Honor, I agree to the divorce.

00:03:37I don't want the house, the cars, or the money.

00:03:40He can keep all of it.

00:03:43I only ask for one thing.

00:03:46Let my two boys stay with me.

00:03:49Mrs. Miller, what makes you think you're capable of supporting two children?

00:03:52You have no job, no income, and no property in your name.

00:03:56I can work.

00:03:57I used to have a career.

00:03:58He's the one who made me give it up.

00:04:00Two years into our marriage, he told me the boys needed their mother at home full-time,

00:04:03so I quit my job at the research institute.

00:04:05Mrs. Miller, this behavior you're displaying right now

00:04:07only reinforces my client's concerns about your emotional instability.

00:04:11Ten years, Sophia.

00:04:12That's how long it took me to turn you into a bird in a cage.

00:04:15Now you can barely spread your wings.

00:04:17What makes you think you can fight me?

00:04:19Charles, you've never even cared about those boys.

00:04:21The only reason you're fighting for custody is that $80 million contract.

00:04:25I heard you on the phone in your study.

00:04:27You said the client cares about a perfect family.

00:04:30Get custody of the kids, let another woman raise them, and the deal is mine.

00:04:33You don't want sons.

00:04:34You want two props to help you close a deal.

00:04:36What the hell are you talking about?

00:04:38You're out of your mind.

00:04:39Your Honor, the respondent is making malicious accusations

00:04:41and personal attacks without a shed of evidence.

00:04:44We ask that she be instructed to stop.

00:04:45Mrs. Miller, control yourself.

00:04:48Stick to the facts.

00:04:51Charles, I kept my mouth shut when you brought your mistress into our lives.

00:04:55I endured it for my boys.

00:04:57But you think I'm going to let her take my place as their mother?

00:05:00Not a chance.

00:05:01In determining custody, the court must consider both parents' circumstances

00:05:05as well as the children's wishes.

00:05:07Jaden and Jasper are nine years old.

00:05:09They're old enough to express their own feelings on the matter.

00:05:12I'd like to hear from the children myself.

00:05:14Are they here?

00:05:18Jaden, Jasper.

00:05:19Mom.

00:05:25Jaden, Jasper.

00:05:26I'll do whatever it takes to get you away from that bastard.

00:05:29Jaden, Jasper, I'd like to ask you something.

00:05:31There's no need to be nervous.

00:05:32Just tell me how you really feel, okay?

00:05:35If your mom and dad live apart from now on,

00:05:37who would you want to live with?

00:05:39My babies.

00:05:40I nearly died bringing you into this world.

00:05:41I had surgery.

00:05:42I hemorrhaged.

00:05:43I almost didn't make it.

00:05:45Please, choose mom.

00:05:47Jaden, Jasper, trust me.

00:05:48I'll give you the best life, the best schools, and the best future possible.

00:05:52They're nine years old.

00:05:53It's an easy choice.

00:05:54With me, they'll have everything.

00:05:55With you, they'll have nothing.

00:05:57They know exactly who to choose.

00:05:59Here we go again.

00:06:00The second there's an audience, he puts on his perfect dad act.

00:06:04Happy birthday, Jaden.

00:06:06Happy birthday, Basper.

00:06:09Jaden, Jasper, are you having a good birthday?

00:06:11Yeah.

00:06:12Thanks, mom.

00:06:15Sophia works so hard taking care of the boys at home.

00:06:18Smile.

00:06:18Don't embarrass me.

00:06:21My son really is such a wonderful father.

00:06:24All that matters is that the family's happy together.

00:06:27This wonderful father only shows up when he has an audience.

00:06:30My boys, can they see who he really is?

00:06:34Your honor, can I tell you a secret?

00:06:36Something even my mom doesn't know.

00:06:39Go ahead, Jaden.

00:06:40Your honor, any statement from a minor requires proper representation to ensure...

00:06:44Both of his legal guardians are present, his mother and his father.

00:06:47What kind of secret could he possibly have?

00:06:49I never leave anything behind that can come back to bite me.

00:06:52A flash drive?

00:06:52I've never seen that before.

00:06:54Where did Jaden even get it?

00:06:55Jaden, what is that?

00:06:56Your honor, our teacher gave us a sound diary project.

00:06:59We were supposed to record sounds from home every day, like a diary.

00:07:03These are the sounds I recorded at our house.

00:07:08Something's wrong with Mr. Anderson.

00:07:10Does he actually have something to hide?

00:07:12Your honor, the admissibility of these recordings needs to be reviewed first.

00:07:16Ms. Voss will hear what's on them first, then we'll address any procedural issues.

00:07:20Sit down.

00:07:23Which one should I play first?

00:07:24The first one.

00:07:26You there.

00:07:28Drive safe.

00:07:29Yeah, I just parked.

00:07:31Have you eaten yet?

00:07:34Dad's talking to that woman again, and she's not mom.

00:07:37I've been waiting for you.

00:07:39So, um, where is she?

00:07:42That woman?

00:07:42She's at home.

00:07:43Where else would she be?

00:07:45Don't worry.

00:07:45The house and the cars are all in my name.

00:07:47She doesn't own a piece of my company.

00:07:49Once the divorce is finalized, she can go live in some dump for all I care.

00:07:54What about the kids?

00:07:56The kids?

00:07:57She can take them and figure out how to feed them herself.

00:07:59Why the hell would I want them?

00:08:01They're nothing but a burden.

00:08:04How the hell did they get that recording?

00:08:10A burden?

00:08:11I nearly died bringing those boys into this world.

00:08:13They're my children, and they're yours, too.

00:08:17What's taking so long?

00:08:19She's been in labor all day and all night.

00:08:22They're here.

00:08:23Finally.

00:08:25Congratulations, Mr. Anderson.

00:08:27Twin boys.

00:08:28Mother and babies are doing well.

00:08:30Thank you, doctor.

00:08:33Look at them.

00:08:34They both look like me.

00:08:35This is amazing.

00:08:37Our boys.

00:08:38Have you thought of names for them?

00:08:40Jaden for the older one, Jasper for the younger one.

00:08:42I've been thinking about it for over a month.

00:08:44What do you think?

00:08:44I love them.

00:08:46They're perfect.

00:08:48You play the loving father whenever it helps your business, always telling them how much

00:08:52daddy loves them.

00:08:53But behind closed doors, they're nothing but a burden to you.

00:08:58Charles, you make me sick.

00:09:01That recording is fake.

00:09:02A nine-year-old couldn't have done all this on his own.

00:09:05Your Honor, Sophia put him up to this.

00:09:07She made the kids fake those recordings.

00:09:11Your Honor, she made the kids fake those recordings.

00:09:14This woman is so twisted, she's using her own nine-year-old sons to do her dirty work.

00:09:19Mr. Anderson, sit down.

00:09:20Don't touch me.

00:09:21I'm going to expose her for who she really is.

00:09:23Sit down.

00:09:23This is a courtroom.

00:09:26Jaden, when did you make this recording, and what did you use?

00:09:29October 15th last year, I used Mom's old phone.

00:09:32My old phone?

00:09:33I can't believe he thought of that.

00:09:35Sometimes I'd record Mom doing chores.

00:09:37Sometimes I'd record us having dinner together.

00:09:39Then one day, I accidentally recorded Dad talking on the phone.

00:09:43At first, I just thought, Dad sounded different when he talked to that person.

00:09:47He didn't sound the way he did when he talked to Mom, Jasper, or me.

00:09:49So I saved it.

00:09:51When I was in third grade, I heard Dad say,

00:09:54That woman.

00:09:54I thought he was talking about somebody on TV.

00:09:57That woman was me.

00:09:58I thought I'd married the right man.

00:10:00Turns out, I'm married.

00:10:02Later, I realized he was talking about my mom.

00:10:06I stayed because I thought I was protecting them.

00:10:08And now they're the ones bringing out the evidence to protect me.

00:10:11Your Honor, would you like to hear the second recording?

00:10:13Play the second recording.

00:10:19I thought the boys hadn't seen what their father did to me that night.

00:10:23You can't even make a decent apple pie.

00:10:25What the hell are you good for?

00:10:28I'm sorry.

00:10:30I didn't mean to.

00:10:31Shut up.

00:10:32Don't give me that.

00:10:33You did it on purpose.

00:10:38Please, stop.

00:10:40You're going to scare the boys.

00:10:42I paid for this stuff.

00:10:43I'll smash whatever the hell I want.

00:10:45Who do you think you are?

00:10:49They're only nine.

00:10:50They should have been the ones being protected.

00:10:53Instead, what kind of mother have I been?

00:10:57Jayden, is there anything else you'd like to tell the court about the recording?

00:11:02Your Honor, I want to tell you why Dad was so mean to Mom.

00:11:12That night, Mom was making apple pie.

00:11:15It's Jasper's and my favorite.

00:11:17She just put a little too much sugar in the filling.

00:11:19Dad took one bite and got mad.

00:11:22He was the one who smashed the bowl first.

00:11:23It was white with little blue flowers on it.

00:11:25What the hell are you good for?

00:11:29Then, Dad...

00:11:29What happened next, Jayden?

00:11:31It's okay.

00:11:31You can tell me.

00:11:33Then he pushed Mom.

00:11:34She hit the corner of the table and got hurt.

00:11:37Jasper and I saw it through the crack in our bedroom door.

00:11:40Mom didn't know we were watching.

00:11:42That night, I thought I'd shut their bedroom door.

00:11:45I thought they were asleep.

00:11:54For the boys...

00:11:55To keep our family together, I have to put up with this.

00:11:58Mom, what happened to your back?

00:12:00Mom, does it hurt?

00:12:02Mommy's fine.

00:12:03It doesn't hurt.

00:12:04I just bumped into the door.

00:12:06They knew all along.

00:12:07I tried so hard to protect them, to keep them from seeing any of this.

00:12:11But they were right there, watching everything through that crack in the door.

00:12:15Your Honor, I have some other things, too.

00:12:17They're not recordings.

00:12:19Can I show them to you?

00:12:22Your Honor, this is my diary.

00:12:24I wrote down a lot of the bad things Dad did.

00:12:27March 7th, 2023.

00:12:29Dad didn't come to our parent-teacher conference.

00:12:31Mom did.

00:12:32She'd been crying before she came.

00:12:33Her eyes were all puffy.

00:12:35Jayden, do you think Dad's coming?

00:12:37Don't you remember?

00:12:38Dad never comes to our parent-teacher conferences.

00:12:40What about Mom?

00:12:41Mom will come.

00:12:42She always does.

00:12:42I'm sorry, boys.

00:12:44Mommy's late.

00:12:45Mom, why were you crying?

00:12:47I wasn't crying.

00:12:48I just got something in my eye.

00:12:49Come on, let's go inside.

00:12:50That morning, I bed him for an hour, just to come to one parent-teacher conference.

00:12:55But he...

00:12:56There's a parent-teacher conference this Friday.

00:12:58Could you come just this once?

00:12:59The boys really want you there.

00:13:00I'm busy.

00:13:01I've got a company to run.

00:13:02Not everyone gets to sit around at home all day like you.

00:13:04I don't just sit around.

00:13:05I take care of the boys.

00:13:06That's your job.

00:13:06I pay for you and those boys.

00:13:07The least you can do is take care of the house.

00:13:08Stop bothering me with this crap.

00:13:09But they need their dad.

00:13:10They need their dad?

00:13:11Then tell them their dad is out making money.

00:13:12I don't have time to play house with them.

00:13:14Keep nagging me and you won't see another dime for household expenses.

00:13:17Your Honor, these are just ordinary family matters.

00:13:20None of this proves anything.

00:13:22Sit down.

00:13:22Go on.

00:13:26Okay, Your Honor.

00:13:27I'll read the next one.

00:13:31May 2nd, 2023.

00:13:33Dad took us to the amusement park, but he was on the phone the whole time.

00:13:37He was gone for a long time.

00:13:38Jasper fell down.

00:13:39And when Dad came back, he yelled at Mom and Jasper.

00:13:44Mom, where's Dad?

00:13:46Where did he go?

00:13:47Daddy has some work to take care of.

00:13:49We can have fun on our own for now, okay?

00:13:52Dad!

00:13:53Jasper!

00:13:54Are you okay?

00:13:54Does it hurt?

00:13:56Jasper, don't run.

00:13:57Slow down.

00:13:59Why are you running around like that?

00:14:00You're old enough to know better than to fall like that.

00:14:04I'm sorry.

00:14:05I'm sorry.

00:14:05I should have been watching him more closely.

00:14:07You call yourself a mother?

00:14:08You can't even watch your own kid.

00:14:09What the hell do you do all day?

00:14:11It's not Mom's fault.

00:14:12Jasper was running because he wanted to see you.

00:14:14Jaden, you're just like your mother.

00:14:16Always talking back.

00:14:18The boys had begged him for six months to take them to that amusement park.

00:14:21I thought at least they'd have a good time.

00:14:23But instead...

00:14:24Sophia's damned.

00:14:26Always taking her side against me.

00:14:28Your Honor, I'll read the third one now.

00:14:33August 19th, 2023.

00:14:35I heard Mom crying in the kitchen that night.

00:14:37She was trying to be really quiet.

00:14:39I got up because I wanted to hug her, but Jasper stopped me.

00:14:41He said if we went in, Mom would just pretend had been crying.

00:14:44They knew.

00:14:45They even knew when I was pretending not to cry.

00:14:46I really thought I'd hidden it from them.

00:14:51Could you send me some money?

00:14:52My stomach really hurts.

00:14:53I think I need to go to the hospital.

00:14:55Is money all you ever think about?

00:14:56You think it's easy for me to earn it?

00:14:58It really hurts.

00:14:59I can't take it anymore.

00:15:00If you've got enough strength to call me, you're not dying.

00:15:02Take some painkillers.

00:15:03Stop bothering me with every little problem.

00:15:09Your Honor, please look.

00:15:11I filled three notebooks in total.

00:15:13This is the third one.

00:15:14The other two, I left at my friend's grandma's house.

00:15:16I was afraid Dad would find them.

00:15:19Your Honor, everything my brother said is true.

00:15:22I have something to say, too.

00:15:26Mom bought me this lucky bracelet.

00:15:28One time, I got really sick, but Dad had a meeting and wouldn't take care of me.

00:15:33Mom, I don't feel good.

00:15:37He's burning up.

00:15:38104 degrees.

00:15:39Jayden, go get your dad.

00:15:40Hurry.

00:15:41Okay.

00:15:42What the hell is going on in the middle of the night?

00:15:44Can't anyone let me get some sleep?

00:15:45Jasper's fever is 104.

00:15:46Please, can you drive us to the hospital?

00:15:47Why the hell do I have to drive you?

00:15:49Take him yourself.

00:15:50I've got a contract to sign first thing tomorrow morning.

00:15:54It's okay, Basper.

00:15:56Mommy's taking you out to the hospital right now.

00:16:01Mom was really scared after I got sick, so she bought these lucky bracelets.

00:16:05One for me and one for Jayden.

00:16:06Mom said they'd keep us safe and healthy.

00:16:08Mom carried Jasper to the hospital all by herself that night.

00:16:11Later, she told me that if they'd gotten there any later, Jasper could have been in real danger.

00:16:15To him, that contract mattered more than his own son's life.

00:16:19My hands were shaking the whole way there.

00:16:21I was terrified something would happen to Jasper before we even made it to the hospital.

00:16:26Your Honor, Dad didn't just leave me when I was sick.

00:16:29When Mom got sick, he brought another woman into our house.

00:16:32Jasper, stop making things up.

00:16:34Did your mother tell you to say that?

00:16:35Did she?

00:16:37Mr. Anderson.

00:16:38Sit down and let the boy finish.

00:16:45Last December, Mom was in the hospital with appendicitis.

00:16:48Dad didn't go see her the night she had surgery.

00:16:50He said he was busy.

00:16:51But he brought another woman home.

00:16:53She came to our house.

00:16:55She sat in the living room and drank out of Mom's mug.

00:16:58She walked around the house in Mom's slippers.

00:17:00They were pink with a little bunny on them.

00:17:01Then she went into Mom's bedroom.

00:17:03She slept in Mom's bed.

00:17:06Jasper,

00:17:06That woman was just...

00:17:08Mr. Anderson, do not interrupt.

00:17:10Sit down.

00:17:13That night, I cried.

00:17:15Jaden did too.

00:17:16But we were too scared to leave our room.

00:17:18We didn't want that woman to hear us.

00:17:20And we were even more scared Dad would find out we were awake.

00:17:23I was lying in a hospital bed after surgery.

00:17:26While you brought another woman into our home and put her in my bed.

00:17:30Our boys were hiding in their room crying, too scared to make a sound.

00:17:34She left later that night.

00:17:36The next day, Dad said something to us.

00:17:42He said,

00:17:43Don't you dare tell your mother what happened last night.

00:17:47You threatened your own children just to cover for your mistress?

00:17:51Charles, what kind of monster are you?

00:17:54Is there a video of this?

00:17:57Yes.

00:17:57There's a folder on the flash drive called night.

00:18:00It's in there.

00:18:05Here, baby.

00:18:07Have a sip.

00:18:08Oh, stop it.

00:18:15That's way too strong.

00:18:17You're going to get me drunk.

00:18:23Charles, you let that woman wear my slippers, drink from my mug, sleep in my bed.

00:18:28You're disgusting.

00:18:31Those sluppers, they were on sale for $29.99.

00:18:34I went back to look at them three times.

00:18:36But I could never bring myself to spend the money.

00:18:39Meat, vegetables, eggs, milk.

00:18:42That's everything.

00:18:43I should still be under budget.

00:18:45Mom, look.

00:18:47These bunny slippers are so cute.

00:18:49They'd look great on you.

00:18:51I already have slippers.

00:18:52I don't need new ones.

00:18:53Mom, your old pair is falling apart.

00:18:55What if you trip?

00:18:56Please, just get these.

00:18:58Okay.

00:18:59Thank you, sweethearts.

00:19:01I'll get them.

00:19:02And that mug?

00:19:03Jaden gave it to me for Mother's Day last year.

00:19:08Happy Mother's Day, Mom.

00:19:12Thank you, Jaden.

00:19:14Where did you get the money for this?

00:19:16I saved my allowance for a whole month.

00:19:19Do you like it, Mom?

00:19:21I love it.

00:19:22I really do.

00:19:25That mug was a Mother's Day gift from my son.

00:19:28I treasured it, and you let your mistress use it like it was hers.

00:19:31Charles, you make me and our boys sick.

00:19:34Mr. Anderson, is there anything you'd like to say?

00:19:39I, I, well.

00:19:42Your Honor, my client needs time to review and verify this evidence.

00:19:46We request a brief recess.

00:19:4815-minute recess.

00:19:50God, that was more exhausting than running a 10K.

00:19:53Mom!

00:19:55Mom!

00:19:56Don't be scared.

00:19:58Mommy's right here.

00:19:59Can we, can we please never go back there?

00:20:01I don't want to go back to that house.

00:20:03I don't want it anymore.

00:20:05Okay.

00:20:06We won't go back.

00:20:08Never again.

00:20:12Jaden, come here.

00:20:15Mom.

00:20:17You're the best mom in the whole world.

00:20:19It doesn't matter what anyone else says.

00:20:21What Jasper and I say, that's what matters.

00:20:25Mom, don't cry.

00:20:28Okay, I won't.

00:20:30For the past three years, every time you cried, I wrote it down in my diary.

00:20:34I was scared that one day, you wouldn't be able to take it anymore and you'd leave.

00:20:38And if I didn't have any proof, I wouldn't be able to help you.

00:20:42I was scared Dad would keep hurting you forever.

00:20:45I'm sorry.

00:20:46All this time, I thought I was protecting you.

00:20:49But for three years, the two of you were the ones trying to protect me.

00:20:52You were just little boys carrying all of this for me.

00:20:55I failed you as your mother.

00:20:59Mom, you didn't fail us.

00:21:00You're the best mom in the whole world.

00:21:02It's been three years.

00:21:03I filled three whole notebooks.

00:21:05My little boy.

00:21:06He started when he was only six.

00:21:07In those tiny notebooks with his crooked little handwriting, he wrote down every single day his mother cried.

00:21:13August 19th, 23.

00:21:15I heard Mom crying quietly in the kitchen.

00:21:17I got up to give her a hug, but Jasper stopped me.

00:21:19He said if we went in, Mom would just pretend she wasn't crying.

00:21:22When he didn't know how to spell something, he'd draw a little picture instead.

00:21:26A little person with a sad face.

00:21:29Three years.

00:21:30Three notebooks.

00:21:31Page after page after page.

00:21:34Jayden, when did you start making those recordings?

00:21:39Last year, around the holidays.

00:21:41One day, Dad was gone all day.

00:21:43Then he came home that night and started yelling at you.

00:21:46Look at you.

00:21:46You don't even bother doing your hair or changing your clothes.

00:21:49I'm embarrassed to be seen with you.

00:21:51You can't keep the house in order and you can't even take care of the kids.

00:21:54What are you good for besides spending my money?

00:21:56You're useless.

00:21:58Completely useless.

00:21:59At least a damn dog would wag its tail when I fed it.

00:22:01You're worse than a dog.

00:22:05Jayden, where are we going?

00:22:07Shh.

00:22:07Just follow me.

00:22:10Just follow me.

00:22:12What the hell are you crying about?

00:22:14Did I say anything that wasn't true?

00:22:16Jayden, what are you doing?

00:22:18Dad might hear us.

00:22:19Looking for a phone.

00:22:20We have to help Mom.

00:22:21Watch the door.

00:22:22If Dad comes, cough so I'll know.

00:22:24Okay, hurry.

00:22:25Found it.

00:22:26Let's go.

00:22:31Jayden, what do you need that for?

00:22:33To record things.

00:22:34Dad keeps hurting Mom.

00:22:35They said on TV that if you go to court, you need proof.

00:22:37How to record audio on an iPhone.

00:22:39Do you know how to record?

00:22:40We learned how to search for stuff in computer class.

00:22:43How to record audio on an iPhone.

00:22:45There.

00:22:45You found it.

00:22:46Let's try it.

00:22:48Test.

00:22:49Test.

00:22:50It works.

00:22:53From now on, whenever Dad hurts Mom or does something bad, we record it.

00:22:56Okay.

00:22:57From now on, we'll protect Mom.

00:22:59Jasper and I spent an hour figuring it out.

00:23:01That's how we learn to record things.

00:23:03What about the tablet?

00:23:05How did you get that video?

00:23:09What about the tablet?

00:23:10How did you get that video?

00:23:11The tablet belongs to Jasper.

00:23:13His school gave it to him for homework.

00:23:15That night, Jasper heard something going on in the living room.

00:23:19He woke me up, and I told him to get the tablet so he could record it.

00:23:22That frumpy wife of yours?

00:23:25She's really not home?

00:23:26She's in the hospital.

00:23:27Just had her appendix out.

00:23:29The anesthesia hasn't even worn off yet.

00:23:30She's not going to ruin our fun tonight.

00:23:36Jaden, wake up!

00:23:37Hmm.

00:23:38Is Mom home?

00:23:39Dad brought a woman home!

00:23:42What?

00:23:44Come on.

00:23:45We need to record them.

00:23:48Jaden, use this.

00:23:50The video will be clearer.

00:23:52It'll be better proof to protect Mom.

00:23:54Let's go.

00:23:55Come on, baby.

00:23:56Have a sip.

00:23:58No.

00:23:59I want you to give it to me with your mouth.

00:24:06You two, why didn't you tell me?

00:24:10My babies, you did all of this for me?

00:24:14Why didn't you tell me?

00:24:15Because you would have cried if you knew.

00:24:18Mom, you were sick then.

00:24:20You'd just had surgery.

00:24:21Crying would have made it hurt even more.

00:24:25Even if you knew you didn't have proof yet,

00:24:27and you couldn't stand up to Dad on your own,

00:24:29you would have just cried.

00:24:31We didn't want you crying for nothing.

00:24:33But weren't you scared?

00:24:34What if he'd caught you?

00:24:36We were scared.

00:24:38But we were more scared you'd keep crying.

00:24:40Mom, Jaden said we had to get enough proof

00:24:42before we told you right.

00:24:44The recordings, the diaries, the video.

00:24:46We wanted enough proof to stop him once and for all.

00:24:48They're only nine,

00:24:50and they've been gathering evidence for me.

00:24:52What kind of mother lets her children grow up this fast?

00:24:55Mom, you always used to say,

00:24:57for you and Jasper, there's nothing I can't endure.

00:24:59Now it's our turn.

00:25:01For you, there's nothing Jasper and I won't do.

00:25:06Jaden.

00:25:07Jasper.

00:25:11Mom, we still have lots more proof.

00:25:13Don't be scared.

00:25:14We'll help you win in court,

00:25:15and we'll make sure Dad can't hurt you anymore.

00:25:17We're gonna win.

00:25:17Yes.

00:25:19We're going to win.

00:25:23Jaden.

00:25:24Jaden, listen to me.

00:25:25Those things, they're not what you think.

00:25:27Stay away from us.

00:25:29Jaden, I know I was wrong.

00:25:31I'll change.

00:25:32I promise.

00:25:33Just give me a chance, okay?

00:25:35Your lawyer's waiting for you.

00:25:37Mom, we're going to help you win this case.

00:25:40We will.

00:25:45Mom, trust Judge Harrison.

00:25:48We're not going to lose.

00:25:49Okay.

00:25:50I trust the law.

00:25:56Mr. Anderson, take a look at this.

00:26:02Court is back in session.

00:26:05Your Honor, we object to the admissibility

00:26:08of all audio and video recordings

00:26:10submitted by the respondent.

00:26:11Any recordings made without the other party's consent

00:26:14must be carefully reviewed

00:26:15before they can be admitted as evidence.

00:26:17And more importantly,

00:26:18these recordings were made by two nine-year-old children.

00:26:20We have reasonable grounds to believe

00:26:22that Sophia Miller directed them behind the scenes,

00:26:24if not orchestrated the entire thing herself.

00:26:26Mrs. Miller used her own minor children

00:26:29as tools to secretly monitor my client for months.

00:26:31That conduct alone represents

00:26:33a serious breach of trust within this family.

00:26:35And it only reinforces what my client stated

00:26:37in his petition,

00:26:38that Mrs. Miller is not a fit mother.

00:26:41How does that make any sense?

00:26:42The boys saw what your client was doing

00:26:44with their own eyes.

00:26:45How does that suddenly mean I manipulated them?

00:26:48In addition, we request that Betty Sullivan,

00:26:50the Anderson family's former nanny,

00:26:51be called to testify regarding Mrs. Miller's

00:26:53day-to-day care of the children.

00:26:55You submitted Ms. Sullivan's written statement

00:26:57before the recess.

00:26:58You're now asking to have her testify in court?

00:27:00Yes, Your Honor.

00:27:02Very well.

00:27:03Call the witness.

00:27:11Betty, how long did you work as a nanny

00:27:12for the Anderson family?

00:27:14A little over three years.

00:27:15I started when the boys were six.

00:27:17During that time,

00:27:18how involved was Mrs. Miller

00:27:19in the children's day-to-day care?

00:27:21Mrs. Miller went out a lot

00:27:22and left the boys with me.

00:27:24Sometimes she'd come home really late.

00:27:26There were nights when the boys were already asleep

00:27:28and she still wasn't back.

00:27:29And she had a bad temper.

00:27:32Sometimes she'd smash things

00:27:33and scream right in front of the boys.

00:27:35They'd get so scared,

00:27:36they'd cry.

00:27:37Three and a half years.

00:27:38She worked in my home

00:27:39for three and a half years,

00:27:40and I treated her like family.

00:27:42I always paid her on time.

00:27:44I never forgot to get her gifts.

00:27:47When she got sick,

00:27:48I took her to the hospital.

00:27:49I stayed with her all day

00:27:51through registration,

00:27:52waiting,

00:27:53and picking up her medication.

00:27:56And this is how she repays me?

00:27:58Lying about me like this?

00:28:00Saying I smashed things

00:28:01and screamed in front of my own children?

00:28:03Your Honor, that's not true.

00:28:05When I went out,

00:28:06it was to buy groceries,

00:28:07take the boys where they needed to go,

00:28:09or see a doctor.

00:28:10And I wasn't the one smashing things.

00:28:13Your Honor,

00:28:14can I play another recording?

00:28:16Don't tell me this kid

00:28:17has even more evidence.

00:28:19Play it.

00:28:22January 8th,

00:28:23ten days before Charles

00:28:24filed for divorce.

00:28:26Did you bring it?

00:28:27Mr. Anderson,

00:28:28are you sure about this?

00:28:30Mr. Anderson,

00:28:31are you sure about this?

00:28:33Just write what I told you.

00:28:34Say she neglects the kids,

00:28:35she's emotionally unstable,

00:28:36and she's always going out

00:28:37and leaving them behind.

00:28:38Once it's done,

00:28:39I'll wire you a million.

00:28:40But Mrs. Miller,

00:28:41she's always been good to me.

00:28:43That's her problem.

00:28:44I'm the one paying you

00:28:45so you do what I tell you.

00:28:46Doesn't your daughter

00:28:46want to go to grad school?

00:28:47A million is enough

00:28:48to put her through grad school

00:28:49three times over.

00:28:50If you want the money,

00:28:51quit stalling and write.

00:28:53Fine.

00:28:54What do you want me to write?

00:28:55I'll send it to you.

00:28:57Just copy it word for word.

00:28:58Your Honor,

00:28:59the recording has ended.

00:29:02I...

00:29:03I...

00:29:04Your Honor,

00:29:05I...

00:29:07Your Honor,

00:29:08we...

00:29:09we need time

00:29:09to look into this further.

00:29:11Jaden,

00:29:12do you have any other evidence

00:29:13you'd like to submit?

00:29:18Yes.

00:29:20I heard Dad on the phone

00:29:22saying he was going

00:29:22to transfer company money

00:29:23to someone named Lydia.

00:29:24I found this

00:29:25in the trash.

00:29:29My son,

00:29:30at an age when other kids

00:29:31should be watching cartoons,

00:29:32he was outside his father's study

00:29:34copying down account numbers,

00:29:35all so that one day

00:29:36he could help his mom in court.

00:29:38Is this a three or an eight?

00:29:39An eight.

00:29:40Dad said he was transferring

00:29:41eight million to an account

00:29:42under Lydia's name.

00:29:43And what does

00:29:43Building 6,

00:29:44Unit 1202 refer to?

00:29:46An apartment.

00:29:47I heard Dad say on the phone,

00:29:48put it in your name.

00:29:49It has nothing to do with me.

00:29:50Your Honor,

00:29:51he's nine years old.

00:29:52He hears a few numbers

00:29:53and suddenly that's evidence?

00:29:54He doesn't even know

00:29:55what a bank account number is.

00:29:56Sophia must have coached him

00:29:57to memorize all of this.

00:30:00Your Honor,

00:30:00these are nothing more

00:30:01than a child's personal notes.

00:30:03They have no evidentia value

00:30:04and we ask the court

00:30:05to disregard them.

00:30:06Your Honor,

00:30:07Jaden would never lie.

00:30:08Charles,

00:30:09he's your son too.

00:30:09How could you say that about him?

00:30:12Sophia,

00:30:12you're using your own son

00:30:13as a weapon against me.

00:30:14You taught him

00:30:15to throw around a few numbers

00:30:16and accuse me

00:30:16of something I didn't do?

00:30:17You're insane.

00:30:20She really thinks

00:30:21some kid with a scrap of paper

00:30:22can take me down?

00:30:24Pathetic.

00:30:25Sophia,

00:30:25if you're going to manufacture evidence,

00:30:27at least teach him

00:30:28how to do it right.

00:30:29Jaden,

00:30:30what do we do now?

00:30:35Your Honor,

00:30:36I'm Michelle Schmidt,

00:30:37counsel for Sophia Miller.

00:30:39My apologies for being late.

00:30:40I just finished obtaining

00:30:41the bank records.

00:30:43Your Honor,

00:30:44she's my college roommate,

00:30:45the suspicious person

00:30:46Charles' attorney claimed

00:30:47I was constantly talking to.

00:30:49I didn't want to drag her

00:30:50into my mess,

00:30:51so I came here alone.

00:30:52But she still showed up,

00:30:54right when I needed her most.

00:30:55Mrs. Miller previously stated

00:30:57that she was representing herself.

00:30:59I was retained it

00:30:59on an emergency basis.

00:31:02And you have evidence to submit?

00:31:04I do.

00:31:05And there's more than one piece.

00:31:08When Michelle found out

00:31:09I was planning to face

00:31:10this divorce hearing alone,

00:31:11she spent 15 minutes

00:31:13tearing into me last night.

00:31:14You're going to court alone?

00:31:15Without a lawyer?

00:31:16Have you lost your mind?

00:31:18I didn't want to bother you.

00:31:19You're already so busy with work.

00:31:20Bother me?

00:31:21How many years

00:31:21have we known each other?

00:31:22Do you even consider me your friend?

00:31:24Michelle,

00:31:24I really don't want to...

00:31:25I've already asked so much

00:31:26of you over the years.

00:31:27Sophia, listen to me.

00:31:28That man lied to you

00:31:29for 10 years

00:31:29and made you give up

00:31:3010 years of your life.

00:31:31But you have never been a burden.

00:31:33But, but...

00:31:33No buts.

00:31:34Look at you.

00:31:35An old coat,

00:31:35a beat-up phone,

00:31:36and you can't even afford an attorney.

00:31:38What happened to the brilliant

00:31:38life sciences student

00:31:39who used to be top of her class

00:31:40at university?

00:31:41I never wanted my life

00:31:43to turn out like this.

00:31:44You gave up your career for him.

00:31:45You had his children.

00:31:46You sacrificed everything

00:31:47for that family.

00:31:48And what did he do?

00:31:49He got himself a mistress,

00:31:50hid your money,

00:31:51and now he's trying

00:31:51to take your children too?

00:31:52I'm going with you tomorrow.

00:31:54I'll handle the evidence.

00:31:55And don't argue with me.

00:31:55This isn't up for discussion.

00:31:58Thank you.

00:31:59You were number one

00:32:00in your entire department, Sophia.

00:32:01Professor Helen Quinn

00:32:02considered you

00:32:02her most promising student.

00:32:04You buried all that talent

00:32:05for that man.

00:32:06I, I was such a fool.

00:32:08Tomorrow you walk

00:32:09into that courtroom

00:32:09with your head held high,

00:32:10and you show everyone

00:32:11that Sophia Miller

00:32:12is done letting people

00:32:13walk all over her.

00:32:17These are bank records

00:32:18for accounts held

00:32:19by the petitioner,

00:32:20Charles Anderson,

00:32:21obtained from two

00:32:21commercial banks.

00:32:22I also have the city's

00:32:24property registration records.

00:32:26Here, take a good look.

00:32:28According to the bank records,

00:32:30between June 23 and 2024,

00:32:32Charles Anderson made

00:32:33seven SEP transfers

00:32:34from his business

00:32:34and personal accounts

00:32:35to accounts held

00:32:36by a woman named Nadine Lydia,

00:32:37totaling $86 million.

00:32:39That includes a single transfer

00:32:40of $3.2 million,

00:32:41separate 17-3,

00:32:42labeled Consulting to Fee.

00:32:44Property records also show

00:32:45that on October 8, 23,

00:32:46Unit 1202,

00:32:47Building 6,

00:32:48Victoria Gardens

00:32:49was transferred to Lydia's name

00:32:50for $3.86 million.

00:32:52Building 6,

00:32:53Unit 1202.

00:32:54Jaden, you got it right?

00:32:55Yeah.

00:32:55The funds used

00:32:56to purchase that property

00:32:57came directly from

00:32:58a business account

00:32:59controlled by Charles Anderson.

00:33:00During the marriage,

00:33:01Charles transferred

00:33:02more than $12 million

00:33:03in marital assets

00:33:04to Lydia,

00:33:04the woman he was

00:33:05having an affair with.

00:33:06$12 million.

00:33:07I nearly died

00:33:08giving him children.

00:33:09I gave him my youth,

00:33:10became his maid,

00:33:11and let him treat me

00:33:11like a punching bag.

00:33:12And this is what

00:33:13I got in return.

00:33:15He took our money

00:33:16and handed it all

00:33:16to another woman.

00:33:18So now,

00:33:19I'm fighting for my children

00:33:20and my share of everything.

00:33:21And I'm not backing down.

00:33:25This evidence proves

00:33:26one thing.

00:33:26Charles Anderson

00:33:27is the one who should

00:33:28forfeit his claim

00:33:28to the marital assets.

00:33:30I earned that money.

00:33:31I can do whatever

00:33:32the hell I want with it.

00:33:33Mr. Anderson, order.

00:33:35Charles,

00:33:35when you spent $3.86 million

00:33:37buying your mistress a home,

00:33:39did it ever occur to you

00:33:40that some of that money

00:33:40belonged to me too?

00:33:41Spare me the victim act, Sophia.

00:33:43You've lived off me

00:33:44for 10 years

00:33:44without working a single day.

00:33:45What makes you think

00:33:46you're entitled to my money?

00:33:47When you made me quit my job,

00:33:48you said the boys

00:33:48need their mother at home.

00:33:49Now you're throwing it

00:33:50in my face

00:33:51that I haven't worked

00:33:51in 10 years.

00:33:52So what was I to you?

00:33:53A free nanny?

00:33:54Someone to have your children?

00:33:55Don't stand there

00:33:55and put on an act.

00:33:56When you were handing

00:33:57your mistress $8 million,

00:33:58I was taking care of your mother

00:33:59and helping our boys

00:33:59with their homework.

00:34:00Who exactly was I

00:34:01putting on an act for?

00:34:02The law says I have a claim

00:34:03to what we built

00:34:03during our marriage.

00:34:04And whatever you secretly gave her,

00:34:06I'm taking my share back.

00:34:07Mr. Anderson,

00:34:08how do you explain

00:34:09these bank records?

00:34:10Those were legitimate

00:34:11business transactions.

00:34:11Legitimate business payments

00:34:12don't go straight

00:34:13into someone's personal account.

00:34:14Lydia was neither your employee

00:34:15nor a business partner

00:34:15at the time.

00:34:16Lydia's last employer

00:34:17was H Properties,

00:34:19Charles Anderson's company.

00:34:20She worked there

00:34:21as the general manager's assistant.

00:34:24Lydia left the company

00:34:25in May 2023.

00:34:27That very same month,

00:34:29she received the first

00:34:30large transfer from Charles.

00:34:32Charles, you wanted the wife

00:34:33who gave you two children

00:34:34and devoted 10 years

00:34:34of her life to your family

00:34:35to walk away with nothing

00:34:36while you handed another woman

00:34:37$12 million?

00:34:38Do you have any conscience at all?

00:34:4110 years of planning.

00:34:43And in the end,

00:34:44my own son is the one

00:34:45who brought me down.

00:34:47My client will need

00:34:48additional time

00:34:48to review the allegations

00:34:49concerning the transfer

00:34:50of marital assets.

00:34:51Until then,

00:34:51we reserve the right

00:34:52to challenge those claims.

00:34:53Do you have any other

00:34:54witnesses to call?

00:34:56No, Your Honor.

00:34:57Given the volume

00:34:58of newly submitted evidence,

00:34:59the court will review

00:35:00the relevance and admissibility

00:35:01of the audio and video

00:35:02recordings as a whole.

00:35:03The court will also

00:35:04investigate the allegations

00:35:05that the potential

00:35:05concealed or transferred

00:35:07marial assets

00:35:07during the marriage.

00:35:09And one more matter.

00:35:11Ms. Sullivan,

00:35:13knowingly providing

00:35:13false testimony

00:35:14can have serious

00:35:15legal consequences.

00:35:16This court may refer

00:35:17the matter to the appropriate

00:35:18authorities.

00:35:19Knowingly providing

00:35:20false testimony

00:35:21can have serious

00:35:22legal consequences.

00:35:23This court may refer

00:35:24the matter to

00:35:24the appropriate authorities.

00:35:26Three years,

00:35:26I treated you like family.

00:35:27And for a million dollars,

00:35:29you were willing

00:35:29to destroy me?

00:35:30Whatever happens to you now,

00:35:31you brought it on yourself.

00:35:32Your Honor,

00:35:33please,

00:35:34I didn't mean for this

00:35:35to happen.

00:35:36Mr. Anderson said,

00:35:36he said nothing would happen.

00:35:38He told me...

00:35:38You can explain that

00:35:39to the authorities

00:35:40if necessary.

00:35:42This court will recess

00:35:44for another 15 minutes.

00:35:49Only parties to the case

00:35:50and their attorneys

00:35:50may enter during the hearing.

00:35:51I'm the petitioner's mother.

00:35:52You still can't go in.

00:35:54Let me through.

00:35:56That's Charles' mother,

00:35:57isn't it?

00:35:58She's dressed like she's

00:35:58headed to a red carpet premiere.

00:36:00She's worn some version

00:36:01of that outfit

00:36:01to every formal occasion

00:36:02since the day I married

00:36:03into the Anderson family.

00:36:04She's new money

00:36:05trying way too hard

00:36:06to pass for old money.

00:36:07And she still looks down

00:36:07on everyone else.

00:36:08I got a taste of that

00:36:0910 years ago.

00:36:10Mom,

00:36:11this is my girlfriend,

00:36:12Sophia.

00:36:13It's very nice

00:36:13to meet you,

00:36:14Mrs. Anderson.

00:36:15Pretty enough,

00:36:15I suppose.

00:36:16Your posture

00:36:17could use some work.

00:36:18The Andersons

00:36:19are a respected family

00:36:20in this city.

00:36:20Charles is our only son,

00:36:22so one day

00:36:22he'll inherit

00:36:23the family business.

00:36:24And you?

00:36:25What's your educational background?

00:36:26I have a master's

00:36:27in life sciences

00:36:28from A University.

00:36:29A master's?

00:36:30I suppose that's acceptable.

00:36:31The least accomplished

00:36:32women before you

00:36:32had doctorates.

00:36:33I'm not quite sure

00:36:34what he sees in you.

00:36:35What does your family do?

00:36:36I don't have a family.

00:36:38I grew up an orphan.

00:36:39All right,

00:36:40that's enough.

00:36:42I understand.

00:36:43You're lucky Charles chose you.

00:36:45Once you're married,

00:36:45good care of your husband,

00:36:47give him children,

00:36:48and keep the household

00:36:49in order.

00:36:50The Anderson family

00:36:51certainly doesn't need

00:36:52whatever little salary

00:36:53you'd bring home.

00:36:55Sophia!

00:36:55You dragged your problems

00:36:56with Charles into court

00:36:57and humiliated

00:36:58this entire family.

00:36:59Go tell the judge

00:37:00this was all your fault.

00:37:01Put an end to this nonsense

00:37:02and take the boys home!

00:37:08Jaden and Jasper

00:37:09have been so brave.

00:37:10It's time for their mom

00:37:11to be brave too.

00:37:12Sophia,

00:37:12whatever Charles has done,

00:37:13he's still their father.

00:37:14If you insist on blowing

00:37:15this whole thing up,

00:37:16you'll be the one

00:37:17who pays for it in the end.

00:37:18Oh, really?

00:37:18You don't have a job

00:37:19or any income.

00:37:20How exactly are you going

00:37:22to support two children?

00:37:23Just who do you think you are?

00:37:24The Anderson family

00:37:25has connections

00:37:25all over this city.

00:37:26You...

00:37:27Grandma,

00:37:27your son is the one

00:37:28who said he didn't want us.

00:37:30Jaden,

00:37:30of course your father wants you.

00:37:32Don't believe everything

00:37:33your mother tells you.

00:37:34There's a recording of Charles

00:37:35saying he doesn't want the boys.

00:37:37There's video of him

00:37:38bringing another woman

00:37:39into our home.

00:37:40There's a recording of him

00:37:41offering our nanny

00:37:42a million dollars

00:37:43to lie for him.

00:37:44And there are bank records

00:37:45showing he transferred

00:37:46over eight million

00:37:47to that woman.

00:37:49The judge has heard

00:37:50all of it.

00:37:51He's seen all of it.

00:37:53What?

00:37:54What recording?

00:37:55What video?

00:37:56You're lying!

00:37:57Mom isn't lying.

00:37:58You can ask your son yourself.

00:38:00But the bailiff said

00:38:01you can't go in.

00:38:01Penelope!

00:38:02You go!

00:38:03Go find your brother!

00:38:05Excuse me,

00:38:06could I...

00:38:07The petitioner's sister

00:38:08can't go in either.

00:38:10Sophia,

00:38:11who the hell

00:38:12do you think you are

00:38:13going up against

00:38:13the Anderson family?

00:38:15If you don't stop

00:38:16this right now,

00:38:17I swear I'll make

00:38:18you regret it!

00:38:20The Anderson family

00:38:21and I are already finished.

00:38:23This is all you're doing,

00:38:24you bitch!

00:38:25You put those boys

00:38:26up to this!

00:38:27You set Charles up!

00:38:28You!

00:38:28For ten years,

00:38:29I swallowed every insult,

00:38:31cried every tear,

00:38:32and put up with everything

00:38:33for my boys.

00:38:34But we're done

00:38:34putting up with it.

00:38:35They had the courage

00:38:36to do what I couldn't.

00:38:37So I have no excuse

00:38:39to be afraid anymore.

00:38:40Sophia,

00:38:40you've poisoned my grandsons

00:38:42against their own father!

00:38:43I guess rotten mothers

00:38:45really do raise rotten sons!

00:38:46Grandma,

00:38:47Dad's a grown-up.

00:38:48If he's the one

00:38:49doing bad things,

00:38:50why are you blaming Mom

00:38:51for how she raised us?

00:38:52Grandma,

00:38:53Dad failed as a father.

00:38:54If he turned out this way,

00:38:56doesn't that mean

00:38:57you failed as a mother too?

00:38:59That's right, boys.

00:39:01You!

00:39:02He's your father!

00:39:03How can you-

00:39:04I know he's our dad.

00:39:05He just never acted like one.

00:39:06He said we were in the way.

00:39:08He said we were annoying.

00:39:09He even said Mom

00:39:10could take us and starve.

00:39:12Does that sound like a dad to you?

00:39:13Yes!

00:39:14That's exactly right!

00:39:16Thank God you boys

00:39:16didn't learn from your father.

00:39:18Otherwise,

00:39:18this family really

00:39:19would be rotten to the core.

00:39:21You!

00:39:21All of you!

00:39:22Mom,

00:39:23please,

00:39:24just stop.

00:39:25All parties in council,

00:39:27court is back in session.

00:39:28Come on, boys.

00:39:30Sophia,

00:39:31don't get too cocky.

00:39:33I hired the best lawyer

00:39:34money can buy for my son.

00:39:35By the time he's done with you,

00:39:37you'll have nothing left!

00:39:40Look,

00:39:41the Andersons brought in

00:39:42another lawyer.

00:39:43Oh?

00:39:43Let's see what he's got.

00:39:45Your Honor,

00:39:45I'm Edward Bennett,

00:39:46additional counsel for the petitioner.

00:39:48Given the new developments in this case,

00:39:49we'd like to revise our position

00:39:50on the relief requested.

00:39:52In what respect?

00:39:53With regard to custody,

00:39:55the court should not base

00:39:55its decision solely

00:39:56on one parent's misconduct.

00:39:58The petitioner holds

00:39:59a clear advantage

00:40:00in terms of financial stability.

00:40:01Mrs. Miller has been unemployed

00:40:03for the past 10 years.

00:40:04She owns no home,

00:40:05has no vehicle,

00:40:07has no stable source of income,

00:40:08and has been out of the workforce

00:40:10for a decade.

00:40:11It's not that I couldn't

00:40:12earn my own money.

00:40:12Someone made sure

00:40:14I never got the chance.

00:40:15After 10 years

00:40:15as a stay-at-home mother,

00:40:17how can she guarantee

00:40:18these children

00:40:18the standard of living

00:40:19and education they need?

00:40:21How is she supposed

00:40:22to handle a financial emergency?

00:40:23According to this city's

00:40:242023 family court report,

00:40:26in comparable cases,

00:40:28the parent with greater

00:40:28financial resources

00:40:29was awarded custody

00:40:3073% of the time.

00:40:32That's data.

00:40:33Your Honor,

00:40:34not a motion.

00:40:35Counsel for the respondent?

00:40:36You may respond.

00:40:39You said she's been out

00:40:40of the workforce

00:40:41for 10 years.

00:40:42So let me ask you this.

00:40:43Who made Sophia leave

00:40:44the workforce in the first place?

00:40:46Your client, Charles.

00:40:48In the second year

00:40:49of their marriage,

00:40:49he repeatedly pressured Sophia

00:40:51to quit her job

00:40:52and stay home with the kids.

00:40:53His reason?

00:40:54The children need their mother.

00:40:56And now,

00:40:5710 years later,

00:40:58not only does he refuse

00:40:59to take care of his own children,

00:41:00he turns around

00:41:01and uses the very sacrifice

00:41:03he demanded of her

00:41:04against her,

00:41:04claiming that because she has

00:41:06no job and no income,

00:41:07she's somehow unfit

00:41:08to raise them.

00:41:09He made his wife

00:41:10give up her career

00:41:11and now he's using the fact

00:41:13that she gave it up

00:41:14to take her children away?

00:41:17This is a courtroom,

00:41:18not a stage.

00:41:19The law deals in facts,

00:41:20not a motion.

00:41:21And the facts are these.

00:41:23Over the past 10 years,

00:41:24the defendant has had

00:41:25zero income,

00:41:26zero assets in her name,

00:41:28and zero employment record.

00:41:29Three zeros.

00:41:31How does the defense

00:41:31explain that?

00:41:32You can dress it up

00:41:33however you like, Michelle.

00:41:34The numbers don't lie.

00:41:36A mother with zero income,

00:41:37zero assets,

00:41:38and zero employment history

00:41:40can't even support herself.

00:41:42How is she supposed

00:41:42to support two children?

00:41:44Three zeros?

00:41:46Then let me tell you

00:41:47who put those zeros there.

00:41:49Your client.

00:41:50He funneled money

00:41:51to his mistress,

00:41:52put property in her name,

00:41:53and left his wife

00:41:54with nothing.

00:41:56Your Honor,

00:41:57this isn't about Sophia

00:41:58being incapable

00:41:59of supporting herself.

00:42:00She was deliberately

00:42:02denied the chance

00:42:03to do so.

00:42:03She didn't simply

00:42:04choose not to work.

00:42:06She was pushed

00:42:06out of the workforce.

00:42:08Even if everything

00:42:09you just said is true,

00:42:10it doesn't change the past.

00:42:12The question before this court

00:42:13is who can give

00:42:14these children

00:42:15a better future.

00:42:16Love doesn't put food

00:42:18on the table.

00:42:20We can provide evidence

00:42:21showing that the plaintiff's

00:42:22company is projected

00:42:23to generate substantial profits

00:42:25over the next three years.

00:42:26He can provide these children

00:42:28with the best education,

00:42:29health care,

00:42:30and living conditions.

00:42:31As for the defendant,

00:42:32after the divorce,

00:42:33she'll have no choice

00:42:34but to rent.

00:42:35And if she can't find a job,

00:42:37she may not even be able

00:42:38to afford that.

00:42:39Is she going to drag

00:42:40two children from place to place

00:42:42with nowhere to call home?

00:42:43I'd rather rent a place

00:42:44with my kids

00:42:45than have them live

00:42:46under that bastard's roof

00:42:47walking on eggshells

00:42:48around their stepmother

00:42:49every single day.

00:42:51Your Honor,

00:42:52Sophia holds a master's degree

00:42:53in molecular biology

00:42:54from the Institute

00:42:55of Life Sciences

00:42:56at A University.

00:42:57Her academic advisor,

00:42:58Professor Helen Quinn,

00:42:59is one of the country's

00:43:00leading experts in the field.

00:43:01My client is more than capable

00:43:03of supporting her two children.

00:43:04And since you're so interested

00:43:06in statistics,

00:43:07over the past three years,

00:43:0896% of master's graduates

00:43:10from A University's

00:43:11Institute of Life Sciences

00:43:12have found employment

00:43:13with an average monthly salary

00:43:14of $30,000.

00:43:16There's also a major shortage

00:43:17of qualified professionals

00:43:18in the field.

00:43:19Would you like to look up

00:43:20those numbers too?

00:43:21Even if she was qualified

00:43:2210 years ago,

00:43:23she's been out of the field

00:43:24for a decade.

00:43:25Her skills are obsolete.

00:43:27Employers care about

00:43:28what you've done

00:43:28in the last three years,

00:43:30not a paper you published

00:43:3110 years ago.

00:43:32If you're so confident,

00:43:34show this court

00:43:35a single job offer.

00:43:36Until she has one,

00:43:38none of that means anything.

00:43:40There's no law

00:43:41that says a parent

00:43:42needs a job lined up

00:43:43before they can seek custody.

00:43:44Your Honor,

00:43:44I'd like to say something.

00:43:45You may proceed.

00:43:47I just received

00:43:47these three job offers.

00:43:49This one is from

00:43:49A University's

00:43:50Institute of Life Sciences,

00:43:52a principal investigator position

00:43:53with an after-tax

00:43:54annual salary of $2 million.

00:43:57That salary is more than enough

00:43:58to support me

00:43:59and both of my children.

00:44:01Your Honor,

00:44:02I didn't suddenly

00:44:03become capable today.

00:44:0410 years ago,

00:44:05I earned my master's

00:44:06at A University's

00:44:07Institute of Life Sciences

00:44:08and published research

00:44:09in leading academic journals.

00:44:1110 years later,

00:44:11I'm still the same person.

00:44:14I don't need to prove

00:44:14how impressive I am.

00:44:16I just need to prove

00:44:17that with me,

00:44:17my boys will have food

00:44:18on the table,

00:44:19clothes on their backs,

00:44:20a good education,

00:44:21and the chance

00:44:21to grow up with dignity.

00:44:23This offer pays me

00:44:24more in one year

00:44:25than your client gave me

00:44:26for household expenses

00:44:27over the entire

00:44:2810 years of our marriage.

00:44:29So tell me,

00:44:29which is it?

00:44:30Was I incapable

00:44:31of earning money

00:44:32or did someone make sure

00:44:33I never got the chance?

00:44:34These documents

00:44:34will be admitted

00:44:35into evidence.

00:44:36I also want to address

00:44:37the court's preliminary review

00:44:38of the audio recordings

00:44:39submitted this morning.

00:44:42After a preliminary review

00:44:43of the audio evidence

00:44:44submitted this morning,

00:44:45the court finds

00:44:45that the recordings

00:44:46were made independently

00:44:47by the two minor children

00:44:48out of a genuine concern

00:44:50for their own safety.

00:44:51They've been quietly

00:44:52standing up for me

00:44:53for three years.

00:44:55Now it's my turn

00:44:56to stand up for them.

00:44:57The recordings contain

00:44:58evidence relevant

00:44:59to allegations

00:45:00of domestic violence

00:45:01and marital misconduct.

00:45:02No evidence

00:45:03has been presented

00:45:04to suggest that the recordings

00:45:05were altered

00:45:05or fabricated.

00:45:07The court will therefore

00:45:08admit them into evidence.

00:45:09Damn it.

00:45:10This judge isn't

00:45:10buying any of this.

00:45:11If those recordings

00:45:12are admitted,

00:45:13we don't have a case.

00:45:14As for the plaintiff's

00:45:15transfer of marital assets

00:45:16to a third party,

00:45:17Lydia,

00:45:17the bank records

00:45:18and property records

00:45:19submitted by the defense

00:45:20have also been

00:45:21preliminarily verified.

00:45:22I looked Judge Harrison

00:45:23up online.

00:45:23He's been a family court judge

00:45:25for 14 years

00:45:25and he has a solid reputation.

00:45:27I trust him

00:45:28to make a fair ruling.

00:45:29The court therefore

00:45:29finds that during the marriage,

00:45:31the plaintiff transferred

00:45:31and concealed marital asset.

00:45:33Charles,

00:45:34is there anything else

00:45:35you wish to add?

00:45:37Charles,

00:45:38is there anything else

00:45:39you wish to add?

00:45:40Jayden,

00:45:40Jasper,

00:45:42Dad,

00:45:42Dad knows he was wrong.

00:45:43Jayden.

00:45:44Don't say my name.

00:45:44You were never good to us.

00:45:46You called Mom

00:45:46that woman.

00:45:47You shoved her

00:45:48into the corner of the table

00:45:49and made her bleed.

00:45:50You even let that horrible woman

00:45:51wear Mom's favorite slippers.

00:45:53You let her use the mug

00:45:54we gave Mom.

00:45:55You're not a good dad at all.

00:45:56Jayden's right.

00:45:57Whenever we needed you,

00:45:58you were never there.

00:45:59I just want to stay

00:45:59with Mom now.

00:46:00I don't want to live with you.

00:46:02Charles,

00:46:03look at you now.

00:46:04I gave 10 years

00:46:05of my life to this family

00:46:06and I gave my boys

00:46:0710 years of love and care.

00:46:09That's why they're

00:46:09standing up for me today.

00:46:10But you treated

00:46:11your own children

00:46:12like tools

00:46:12to get what you wanted

00:46:13so of course

00:46:13you ended up with nothing.

00:46:15Now it's time

00:46:16to repay everything

00:46:16you've owed me

00:46:17for the past 10 years.

00:46:18Based on the statements

00:46:19of both parties,

00:46:20the evidence presented

00:46:21and examined

00:46:21before this court

00:46:22and the clearly expressed

00:46:23wishes of the two

00:46:24minor children,

00:46:25the court hereby

00:46:26enters the following judgment.

00:46:29The court hereby

00:46:30enters the following judgment.

00:46:31First,

00:46:31the marriage between

00:46:32the plaintiff,

00:46:33Charles Anderson,

00:46:33and the defendant,

00:46:34Sophia Miller,

00:46:35is here high dissolved.

00:46:3610 years

00:46:36and it's finally over.

00:46:38Starting today,

00:46:38I'm no longer

00:46:39Mrs. Anderson.

00:46:40I'm Sophia Miller

00:46:40and more importantly,

00:46:42I'm Jayden and Jasper's mom.

00:46:43Second,

00:46:43primary custody of Jayden and Jasper

00:46:45is awarded to the defendant,

00:46:46Sophia Miller.

00:46:47The plaintiff,

00:46:47Charles Anderson,

00:46:48shall pay $12,000 per month

00:46:49in child support

00:46:50until both children

00:46:51reach the age of 18.

00:46:52My boys,

00:46:53they're finally staying with me.

00:46:55I didn't take them away from him.

00:46:56They made their own choice.

00:46:58They chose me.

00:46:59Third,

00:47:00given the plaintiff's misconduct

00:47:01during the marriage,

00:47:01including his transfer

00:47:02of marial assets

00:47:03to a third party,

00:47:04the marital estate

00:47:04shall be divided unequally

00:47:06in accordance with the law.

00:47:07The plaintiff shall pay

00:47:08the defendant $6 million

00:47:09as her share

00:47:09of the marial estate

00:47:10in a lump sum

00:47:11within 30 days

00:47:12after this judgment

00:47:12takes effect.

00:47:16Sophia,

00:47:17you deserve this.

00:47:18Six million,

00:47:19ten years of my youth,

00:47:20my tears,

00:47:21my dignity.

00:47:22The law finally gave back

00:47:23what he took from me.

00:47:24Fourth,

00:47:25due to the substantial amount

00:47:26of marital assets

00:47:26the plaintiff is suspected

00:47:27of concealing and transferring,

00:47:29the court will refer

00:47:30the relevant evidence

00:47:30to law enforcement

00:47:31for further investigation.

00:47:35Jaden, Jasper.

00:47:37Mom, mom, we won.

00:47:38We don't have to go back there.

00:47:40You're not going back.

00:47:41I'll never make either of you

00:47:42go back to that place

00:47:43that never felt like a home again.

00:47:45Those two boys of yours,

00:47:46they're something special.

00:47:48They fought this battle

00:47:49for their mom.

00:47:50They've been carrying

00:47:51all of this for three years.

00:47:53Today, they can finally

00:47:53put it down.

00:47:55Mr. Anderson,

00:47:56we should go.

00:48:00God.

00:48:03Jaden,

00:48:04do you really hate

00:48:05your dad that much?

00:48:08Dad was wrong.

00:48:09I know that now.

00:48:10I really do.

00:48:11Jasper and I waited for you

00:48:12for nine years.

00:48:13We waited for you

00:48:13to come home for dinner.

00:48:14We waited for you

00:48:15to show up at parent-teacher conferences.

00:48:16We waited for you

00:48:17to hug us.

00:48:18Then I realized

00:48:19you weren't busy.

00:48:19You just didn't want to be there.

00:48:20So go back to your home.

00:48:22Mom, Jasper, and I

00:48:23are going back to ours.

00:48:25Mom, let's go.

00:48:29Sophia, you bitch!

00:48:31How dare you take

00:48:32my grandsons away from me?

00:48:37Sophia, you bitch!

00:48:38How dare you take

00:48:39my grandsons away from me?

00:48:41They made their own choice.

00:48:42You turned them against us!

00:48:43You poisoned their minds!

00:48:45Grandma, nobody told us

00:48:46what to think.

00:48:47We have eyes.

00:48:48We saw what happened.

00:48:49We have ears.

00:48:50We heard what he said.

00:48:51You, you're nine years old.

00:48:52What could you possibly understand?

00:48:54Your mother put you up to this.

00:48:55The only things I've taught my boys

00:48:56are to be honest, kind, and brave.

00:48:59Unlike you, I didn't raise my son

00:49:00to lie, cheat on his wife,

00:49:02and hide marital assets.

00:49:03Who the hell do you think

00:49:04you are, Sophia?

00:49:05You think you can take

00:49:06my grandsons away

00:49:07from this family?

00:49:08I'm their mother.

00:49:09I can take better care of them

00:49:11than your son ever could.

00:49:12And I love them more

00:49:13than he ever has.

00:49:14You think this is over

00:49:15just because the court

00:49:16ruled in your favor?

00:49:17We'll appeal.

00:49:18We'll drag this through

00:49:19every court we can.

00:49:20You're an orphan

00:49:21with no job

00:49:22and no money.

00:49:23How long do you think

00:49:24you can afford

00:49:25to fight the Anderson family?

00:49:26Your son secretly transferred

00:49:27$12 million in marital assets,

00:49:29and the court is already

00:49:30looking into it.

00:49:31And you want to appeal?

00:49:32On what grounds?

00:49:32You're not even a party

00:49:33to this case.

00:49:34You, who the hell are you?

00:49:36This is Anderson family business.

00:49:37She's my attorney.

00:49:39And after 10 years,

00:49:40she's also the closest thing

00:49:41I've had to family.

00:49:42Someone who isn't related

00:49:43to me by blood,

00:49:44but still chose

00:49:44to stand up for me.

00:49:45Charles, get out here.

00:49:47Your mother is being attacked,

00:49:49and you're still sitting

00:49:49in there doing nothing?

00:49:55Charles, look at that bitch.

00:49:57She's taking both

00:49:58of your sons away.

00:49:58Do something.

00:49:59Mom, just stop.

00:50:01What did you say?

00:50:03The judge already ruled.

00:50:04Both boys are going with her.

00:50:06And you can stand there

00:50:07and say that?

00:50:08I told you to fight for them,

00:50:09and this is what you call fighting?

00:50:10You let some woman

00:50:11with no family

00:50:12walk all over you?

00:50:13You've humiliated

00:50:14the entire Anderson family.

00:50:16Mom, just go home.

00:50:17Sophia, don't think

00:50:19winning one case

00:50:20makes you untouchable.

00:50:21The Anderson family

00:50:22isn't done with you.

00:50:23Threaten me one more time.

00:50:24Go ahead.

00:50:24I'll report you

00:50:25for making threats.

00:50:27Grandma, if you keep this up,

00:50:29I'll give Judge Harrison

00:50:29a recording of this, too.

00:50:32Grandma, Dad chose another woman

00:50:33and hurt Mom.

00:50:34We're not going back.

00:50:35Mrs. Anderson,

00:50:36keep making threats,

00:50:37and you could end up

00:50:38in custody yourself.

00:50:39Want to go keep

00:50:40your son company?

00:50:41At least you'd get

00:50:42a family reunion.

00:50:43Mom, please stop.

00:50:45Let's just go.

00:50:46Shut up.

00:50:46You're useless.

00:50:48Your brother is getting

00:50:48torn apart,

00:50:49and you don't even have

00:50:50the guts to stand up for him.

00:50:51Sophia, you just wait.

00:50:53The Anderson family

00:50:54will appeal this

00:50:55as far as we have to.

00:50:56You won't see a dime.

00:50:57You and those two greats

00:50:59can go sleep on the street.

00:51:02If the court-ordered payment

00:51:03isn't made within 30 days

00:51:04after the judgment

00:51:05takes effect,

00:51:06we'll freeze all your company's

00:51:07accounts, properties,

00:51:08and vehicles.

00:51:09So tell me, Mrs. Anderson,

00:51:10who's going to end up

00:51:11on the street then?

00:51:12Come on, boys.

00:51:13Let's go.

00:51:14Let's go.

00:51:15It's gone.

00:51:17I've lost everything.

00:51:18What a mess.

00:51:19We had a family,

00:51:20and now it's all

00:51:21fallen apart.

00:51:22Ten years.

00:51:23I think this is the first time

00:51:24the sun has actually felt warm

00:51:26and the air has felt this good.

00:51:27Don't breathe too deep.

00:51:28I can still smell

00:51:29your ex-mother-in-law's

00:51:30perfume from here.

00:51:31It's enough to choke you.

00:51:32Can you not ruin the moment?

00:51:34Sophia, congratulations.

00:51:35You got your life back.

00:51:36Mom, I'm hungry.

00:51:38What do you want to eat?

00:51:39Chinese food.

00:51:40And I want something spicy.

00:51:42Since when can you

00:51:43handle spicy food?

00:51:44Then, can I just have

00:51:45a little spicy?

00:51:46That's what you said last time.

00:51:48And what happened?

00:51:49You drank a whole liter of milk

00:51:50and sat there with your tongue

00:51:51hanging out like a puppy.

00:51:52You're the puppy.

00:51:53You drank two liters

00:51:54and you stole my Coke.

00:51:56Oh my God.

00:51:57There they are.

00:51:58Actual nine-year-olds.

00:51:59Who were those two little

00:52:00grown-ups testifying

00:52:01in court earlier?

00:52:03These are my boys.

00:52:04They argue.

00:52:05They whine.

00:52:05They drive each other crazy.

00:52:07And when their mom

00:52:08needed them,

00:52:09they stood up in court

00:52:10like two brave little witnesses

00:52:11and protected me.

00:52:13All right, all right.

00:52:14Enough fighting.

00:52:15Come on.

00:52:15Let's go get Chinese food.

00:52:20That old hag

00:52:21and her two little brats

00:52:22are finally gone.

00:52:23This house,

00:52:24all of it.

00:52:25It's mine now.

00:52:26What the hell are you doing?

00:52:27You're divorced.

00:52:27Why keep all this garbage around?

00:52:29I lost the case.

00:52:30She got custody of both boys.

00:52:32You lost?

00:52:33Isn't that a good thing?

00:52:34If you're worried about that deal,

00:52:36we can borrow my brother's kids

00:52:37for a while

00:52:37and keep up appearances.

00:52:38You were always complaining

00:52:39that those two were in the way anyway.

00:52:41Now they're Sophia's problem.

00:52:43Isn't that what you wanted?

00:52:44Then someday,

00:52:45I'll give you a child.

00:52:46One that's ours.

00:52:48They found out about

00:52:49the money I transferred.

00:52:50The court ordered me

00:52:51to pay Sophia six million dollars.

00:52:53What?

00:52:53You said you had

00:52:54everything taken care of.

00:52:55You said you hired

00:52:56the best lawyers money could buy.

00:52:58How the hell did this happen?

00:52:59I lost.

00:53:00That's it.

00:53:01What about our place?

00:53:02The apartment at Victoria Gardens?

00:53:03They found that too.

00:53:04So what?

00:53:05It's in my name.

00:53:06What the hell does Sophia

00:53:07have to do with it?

00:53:08They traced the money

00:53:09I used to buy it.

00:53:10The court found that

00:53:11the funds involved

00:53:11marital assets.

00:53:12So after all that,

00:53:13you lost the case,

00:53:14you owe her six million,

00:53:15and now we might lose

00:53:16the apartment too?

00:53:17What the hell are you good for?

00:53:18Shut up.

00:53:20You're useless.

00:53:21I must have been out of my mind

00:53:22to waste all this time on you.

00:53:24I need to sell

00:53:25that apartment fast.

00:53:26That bitch isn't

00:53:26getting a dime out of it.

00:53:31Mine.

00:53:32Not anymore.

00:53:33Hey, you've already

00:53:34had five pieces.

00:53:35Six.

00:53:36Stop fighting.

00:53:37Here, eat this.

00:53:38Here, take this

00:53:39and stop stealing mine.

00:53:40Slow down.

00:53:40Nobody's taking your food.

00:53:42Michelle, pinch me.

00:53:44Why?

00:53:44I need to make sure

00:53:45I'm not dreaming.

00:53:47Ow!

00:53:48Well, it hurts,

00:53:48so wake,

00:53:49but don't get too comfortable yet.

00:53:50This isn't completely over.

00:53:51Leave enforcement

00:53:52of the judgment to me.

00:53:53I'll handle the paperwork.

00:53:54If Charles thinks he can hide assets

00:53:55to avoid paying you,

00:53:56he's got another thing coming.

00:53:57What about the false evidence

00:53:58and Betty's testimony?

00:54:00Everything related to that

00:54:01has been turned over

00:54:01to the proper authorities.

00:54:02Whether they open an investigation

00:54:03and where it goes from there

00:54:04is up to them.

00:54:05Is Dad going to jail?

00:54:07That's for the authorities

00:54:08and the courts to decide, sweetheart.

00:54:09Not us.

00:54:10For now,

00:54:11you three can stay at my place

00:54:12and stop worrying

00:54:13about everything else.

00:54:14Okay.

00:54:14Sophia, you're free now.

00:54:16Go back to research

00:54:16if that's what you want.

00:54:17Date again someday

00:54:18if you feel like it.

00:54:19Live your life

00:54:19however you damn well please.

00:54:21Nobody gets to tell you no anymore.

00:54:22I just want the judgment enforced

00:54:24without any more surprises.

00:54:25Leave it to me.

00:54:27Tomorrow I'll come with you

00:54:27to get your things.

00:54:29Okay.

00:54:31Hello, Mr. Thompson.

00:54:33Mr. Anderson,

00:54:34we've looked into the situation.

00:54:35That happy, stable marriage

00:54:36you sold us

00:54:37is currently falling apart

00:54:38in divorce court.

00:54:38Integrity matters to us.

00:54:39If you were willing to lie to us

00:54:41about something this fundamental,

00:54:42why would we trust you

00:54:43with an $80 million contract?

00:54:44Please, let me explain.

00:54:46I do have a family.

00:54:47I have children.

00:54:47You deliberately concealed

00:54:48your divorce

00:54:49and presented yourself

00:54:50as a devoted husband and father.

00:54:51Now we know that wasn't true.

00:54:52We don't do business

00:54:53with people we can't trust.

00:54:54The deal is off.

00:54:55Permanently.

00:54:57No.

00:54:57The contract.

00:54:59It's gone.

00:55:00Everything's gone.

00:55:03Sophia, please,

00:55:05don't go through with the divorce.

00:55:06I can't lose you.

00:55:07I can't lose the boys.

00:55:08Let go of me.

00:55:08No, I know I was wrong.

00:55:10I know that now.

00:55:11Please, can't we just start over?

00:55:12You don't care about losing me.

00:55:13You care about losing $6 million

00:55:14in that $80 million contract.

00:55:16Wow, Charles.

00:55:17Where was this performance

00:55:18when we were in court?

00:55:19Sophia, I swear I'll change.

00:55:21I'll never yell at you again.

00:55:22I'll never insult you again.

00:55:23I'll give you $30,000 a month.

00:55:24No, $50,000.

00:55:24More if you want.

00:55:25Just, please,

00:55:26you and the boys, stay.

00:55:28No.

00:55:29You'll pay exactly

00:55:29what the court ordered.

00:55:30Not a penny more.

00:55:32Jaden, daddy was wrong.

00:55:34Please, tell your mom to come back.

00:55:36Stay away from us.

00:55:37Mom doesn't want to see you

00:55:39and she definitely

00:55:39doesn't want you touching her.

00:55:41Jasper, you're starting

00:55:42second grade soon, right?

00:55:43I swear, from now on,

00:55:45I'll come to every

00:55:45parent-teacher conference.

00:55:46I'll never miss another one.

00:55:48I'll spend time with you

00:55:49every day, okay?

00:55:50Jaden and I are going

00:55:51into fourth grade.

00:55:54I, I'm sorry.

00:55:55Dad got it wrong.

00:55:57Enough, Charles.

00:55:58We're not here to listen to this.

00:55:59We're here to get our things.

00:56:04Charles, what are you doing?

00:56:07Sophia, if you won't take me back,

00:56:08I'll die right here

00:56:09in front of you.

00:56:12I'm recording this.

00:56:13Keep threatening me like this

00:56:14and I'll take this video

00:56:15straight to the court

00:56:16and ask for a protective order.

00:56:17I'll also ask the judge

00:56:18to reconsider your visitation rights.

00:56:19What did you just say?

00:56:20You wouldn't dare.

00:56:21You're holding a broken bottle

00:56:22and threatening to hurt yourself

00:56:23in front of Sophia

00:56:24and your own children.

00:56:25You really think a judge

00:56:26is going to watch this

00:56:26and decide you're safe

00:56:27to be alone with those boys?

00:56:30Everything I did,

00:56:30I did for this family.

00:56:32Do you have any idea

00:56:33how exhausted I was?

00:56:34You're the one

00:56:35who tore this family apart.

00:56:37Jaden, Jasper,

00:56:38let's go upstairs

00:56:39and pack your things.

00:56:40Jaden, don't go.

00:56:42Please don't go.

00:56:43Just pack enough clothes

00:56:44for now.

00:56:45Leave the rest of this junk.

00:56:46We'll get you new stuff later.

00:56:47Okay.

00:56:49Jaden, Jasper,

00:56:50pack your school books

00:56:51and supplies.

00:56:52Okay.

00:56:57Jaden, I gave you that.

00:56:58It used to be your favorite.

00:57:00You don't want it anymore?

00:57:02Mom begged you for six months

00:57:04before you finally bought it.

00:57:05Don't you remember

00:57:06what you said back then?

00:57:11The two kids just want a doll.

00:57:13Could you buy one for them?

00:57:15Why the hell

00:57:16do they need another toy?

00:57:17I already spend enough money

00:57:18supporting you

00:57:19and those two kids.

00:57:20All their friends have one.

00:57:21They've been asking

00:57:22for one forever.

00:57:23Are you fucking kidding me

00:57:25with this again?

00:57:26You think it's easy

00:57:27making all this money?

00:57:28Just this once.

00:57:30Please.

00:57:31Take it out

00:57:32of the household budget.

00:57:33Now get the hell out of here

00:57:34and stop bothering me.

00:57:36Jaden,

00:57:37does Dad not love us?

00:57:42He doesn't love us

00:57:44and he doesn't love Mom either.

00:57:46Don't.

00:57:47Don't hurt Mom.

00:57:49May 10th.

00:57:51Mom asked Dad

00:57:52to buy us a doll.

00:57:53Dad yelled at Mom.

00:57:55Mom cried.

00:57:56I'm going to protect Mom.

00:57:58I won't let anyone

00:57:59hurt her anymore.

00:58:02That's when I started

00:58:03keeping a diary.

00:58:03I wrote down

00:58:05every time Mom cried

00:58:06and every awful thing

00:58:07you said to her.

00:58:08Three years.

00:58:10He's been writing

00:58:10all of this down for me

00:58:11since he was six?

00:58:13Jaden,

00:58:13I was under a lot of pressure

00:58:14at work back then.

00:58:16I had a temper.

00:58:17I...

00:58:18I didn't mean any of it.

00:58:21You two wait for me

00:58:22in the living room.

00:58:23Mommy just needs to grab

00:58:24a few things from the bedroom

00:58:25then we'll leave.

00:58:35ten years of marriage

00:58:37and this is all

00:58:38I have to pack.

00:58:39Ten years

00:58:39and this cheap bastard

00:58:40couldn't even buy

00:58:41his wife decent clothes.

00:58:42Sophia,

00:58:44can't you just...

00:58:45No.

00:58:46I wore this thing

00:58:47for ten years.

00:58:48You can have it back.

00:58:51Hang on to it,

00:58:52Mr. Anderson.

00:58:52Even a pawn shop

00:58:53probably wouldn't

00:58:54take that thing.

00:58:55Then again,

00:58:55I guess the ring

00:58:56and its owner

00:58:56have that in common.

00:58:58Let's go.

00:59:03Sophia,

00:59:04ten years of marriage

00:59:05and you're really

00:59:06going to be this heartless?

00:59:07You were all alone

00:59:07when I met you.

00:59:08Have you forgotten

00:59:09who gave you a family?

00:59:10That's exactly why

00:59:11I fell for your lies.

00:59:12I was an orphan

00:59:13who wanted a family

00:59:14so badly

00:59:15I believed every word

00:59:16you said

00:59:16and because I had

00:59:17no family of my own

00:59:19the Andersons

00:59:20walked all over me

00:59:21for ten whole years.

00:59:22For the boys.

00:59:23For the sake of

00:59:24keeping this family together.

00:59:25Can't you just

00:59:26give in for once?

00:59:27If it weren't for the boys

00:59:28I wouldn't have stayed

00:59:29for a single day.

00:59:30You pushed two

00:59:30nine-year-old kids

00:59:31to the point where

00:59:32they had to make recordings,

00:59:33keep diaries,

00:59:33and collect evidence.

00:59:34Even they found the courage

00:59:35to stand up for themselves.

00:59:37If a few empty promises

00:59:38from you are enough

00:59:38to make me come crawling back

00:59:39then I don't deserve

00:59:40to call myself their mother.

00:59:41I just...

00:59:42Lydia fooled me.

00:59:42Please,

00:59:43can't you forgive me

00:59:44just this once?

00:59:44Save it, Charles.

00:59:45Don't make me say

00:59:45what I really think

00:59:46of you in front of the kids.

00:59:47You don't deserve

00:59:47to be forgiven.

00:59:48Mom, let's go.

00:59:50Mom, what about

00:59:51these pictures?

00:59:53You don't deserve

00:59:54to be in this family picture.

00:59:56Jaden, Jasper, Michelle,

00:59:57let's go.

01:00:10What are you looking at?

01:00:12Lydia's trying to sell

01:00:13the place at Victoria Gardens.

01:00:14She dropped the price 10%,

01:00:16listed at $3.48 million.

01:00:20She's getting desperate.

01:00:21I need to move faster

01:00:22on getting a court order

01:00:23to stop her

01:00:23from unloading that property.

01:00:25Exactly.

01:00:25We can't let her move

01:00:26the asset before

01:00:26the court can act.

01:00:27I'll push for emergency relief

01:00:28and make sure she can't

01:00:29transfer the property.

01:00:30Lee's the agent

01:00:31handling the listing.

01:00:32I've referred several clients

01:00:33to her before.

01:00:34I'll ask her to keep an eye on it

01:00:35and let me know

01:00:35the second Lydia tries

01:00:36to close a deal.

01:00:37There's the Sophia I remember.

01:00:39Looks like that brilliant brain

01:00:40of yours is finding me

01:00:40back online.

01:00:41Damn right.

01:00:41I'm not letting them

01:00:42get away with what they did.

01:00:43Sooner or later,

01:00:44they have to face the consequences.

01:00:45Take a look around.

01:00:46The natural light is amazing

01:00:47and all the furniture

01:00:48and appliances are

01:00:48practically brand new.

01:00:49I haven't even lived here

01:00:50six months.

01:00:51Not bad.

01:00:52I could see myself buying it.

01:00:53I'm leaving the country soon

01:00:54so I need the full $3.48

01:00:55paid at closing.

01:00:56That's fine.

01:00:57Let's see the contract.

01:00:58Great.

01:00:58Lee, get the paperwork.

01:01:01Stop.

01:01:01Don't sign that.

01:01:05Ma'am, don't sign that contract.

01:01:07This property was purchased

01:01:08with marital funds

01:01:08and the money Charles used

01:01:09to buy it

01:01:10is already under investigation.

01:01:11That's right.

01:01:12If you sign now,

01:01:12you could be walking straight

01:01:13into a disputed transaction.

01:01:14Wait, what exactly is going on?

01:01:16Is there a problem

01:01:17with the title?

01:01:17Don't listen to her.

01:01:18She's crazy.

01:01:19She's just jealous of me

01:01:19so she's been harassing me nonstop.

01:01:21This property is completely clean.

01:01:22I'm the only owner on the title.

01:01:23Lydia, what are we supposed

01:01:24to do here?

01:01:25Ma'am, I'm an attorney.

01:01:26The fact that the property

01:01:27is titled in Lydia's name

01:01:28doesn't necessarily settle the issue.

01:01:29The funds used to purchase it

01:01:30are already being disputed in court

01:01:32and we're seeking an order

01:01:33to prevent the property

01:01:34from being sold or transferred.

01:01:35If you pay $3.48 million today

01:01:37and the court blocks the transfer,

01:01:38you could end up trapped

01:01:38in a legal mess.

01:01:39Are you sure that's a risk

01:01:40you want to take?

01:01:41What?

01:01:41The court could block the sale?

01:01:42She's bluffing.

01:01:43Don't let her scare you.

01:01:44My lawyer already looked everything over.

01:01:45This property is completely legal.

01:01:46Lydia, say something.

01:01:47Maybe you should clear this up

01:01:48with them first.

01:01:49Then we can talk about the sale.

01:01:50Fine, I'll sell it to you

01:01:50for $3 million.

01:01:51You won't find a deal

01:01:52like that anywhere else.

01:01:53If I weren't in such a hurry

01:01:53to leave the country,

01:01:54I'd never sell it this cheap.

01:01:56This is the court filing

01:01:57concerning the property

01:01:58and I've already requested

01:01:59emergency relief

01:02:00to stop any sale or transfer

01:02:02while the disputed funds

01:02:03are being reviewed.

01:02:04So, ma'am,

01:02:05do you still want to buy it?

01:02:09Ms. Hayes,

01:02:09I'm no longer interested

01:02:10in your property.

01:02:11Wait, don't go.

01:02:12I'll knock another $100,000 off.

01:02:13Half a million.

01:02:14We can close today.

01:02:14Do you think I'm an idiot?

01:02:15I'm not putting millions

01:02:16into a property

01:02:17that's tied up in a court dispute.

01:02:18Get your legal mess sorted out

01:02:19before you try selling it

01:02:20to someone else.

01:02:20Sophia!

01:02:21You bitch!

01:02:22You did this on purpose,

01:02:23didn't you?

01:02:24You're trying to destroy me!

01:02:25Lydia, you've been living

01:02:26in a home bought

01:02:27with marital money,

01:02:27wearing dresses my ex-heaven

01:02:29paid for and rubbing it

01:02:30in my face for months.

01:02:31And now you're accusing me

01:02:32of destroying you?

01:02:33He bought those things

01:02:34for me because he wanted to.

01:02:36It's not my fault

01:02:37you couldn't keep

01:02:37your own husband interested.

01:02:38I don't need you

01:02:39judging my worth.

01:02:40At least every dollar

01:02:41I spend is mine to spend.

01:02:43Charles is about to answer

01:02:44for what he's done

01:02:45and sooner or later,

01:02:46so will you.

01:02:48Actually, I'd say sooner.

01:02:50Lydia Hayes,

01:02:50I'm here to enforce

01:02:52a court order

01:02:52of seizing this property.

01:02:53What?

01:02:53Why?

01:02:54What right do you have

01:02:55to seize my house?

01:02:56This property is tied

01:02:57to Charles Anderson's

01:02:58embezzlement case.

01:02:59It's believed to have been

01:03:00purchased with illegally

01:03:00obtained funds.

01:03:01The court has ordered

01:03:02its seat.

01:03:03Charles Anderson's

01:03:04embezzlement case?

01:03:05I saw that on the news.

01:03:06It's been everywhere.

01:03:08Wait, she's the mistress?

01:03:09So she helped him

01:03:10move marital assets

01:03:11and now they're

01:03:11seizing the house?

01:03:12Serves her right.

01:03:13I don't care if God

01:03:15himself shows up.

01:03:16Nobody is taking my house.

01:03:18Still trying to obstruct

01:03:20justice?

01:03:20Fine.

01:03:21Today I'm making sure

01:03:22justice gets done.

01:03:23Quick, record this!

01:03:24Put her all over social media

01:03:26and let everyone

01:03:26see what she did.

01:03:27Stop!

01:03:28Stop filming me!

01:03:29Anyone who keeps recording me,

01:03:30I'll sue you

01:03:31for invasion of privacy!

01:03:32What was that?

01:03:33You're gonna sue them?

01:03:34Funny, because I've got

01:03:35several wealthy men's wives

01:03:37who are lining up

01:03:37to sue you.

01:03:38Charles wasn't the only man

01:03:39you took money from,

01:03:40was he, Lydia?

01:03:41That's bullshit!

01:03:42I'll sue you for defamation!

01:03:44Leo, one house.

01:03:46Mark, one BMW.

01:03:48Jay, one commercial property.

01:03:49Stop reading that!

01:03:50Shut the hell up!

01:03:52Want me to call

01:03:52their wives too?

01:03:53I'm sure they'd love to hear

01:03:54where their husband's money went.

01:03:56And I'd be more than happy

01:03:57to represent them

01:03:58and help them recover

01:03:58every dollar

01:03:59they're legally entitled to.

01:04:00And I'd be happy

01:04:01to tell them exactly

01:04:02what I learned about

01:04:02fighting to get their assets back.

01:04:04You think you won?

01:04:05You're just some

01:04:06washed up old woman

01:04:07nobody wants.

01:04:09Your own husband

01:04:10would rather go to prison

01:04:11than stay with you.

01:04:12Get your facts straight.

01:04:13I left him.

01:04:14He didn't leave me.

01:04:15As for you,

01:04:15let's see who still wants you

01:04:16when all of this is over.

01:04:17Damn right!

01:04:18She had it coming!

01:04:19You reap what you sow.

01:04:20That's what happens

01:04:20when you build your life

01:04:21on someone else's marriage.

01:04:22Nice work!

01:04:26Let's go.

01:04:27One more second around her

01:04:28and I'm gonna be sick.

01:04:30Oh, Sophia.

01:04:31If you'd had this much fight

01:04:32in you ten years ago,

01:04:35my boys saved me.

01:04:36and they finally opened my eyes.

01:04:39All right, all right.

01:04:41Next step,

01:04:41we collect what your cheating ex owes you.

01:04:46And then I'm buying us a big house.

01:04:51You still have the nerve

01:04:52to sit there?

01:04:52Get those boys!

01:04:53Get the money back!

01:04:54Don't give that bitch

01:04:55a single cent!

01:04:56Mom,

01:04:56the court already ruled.

01:04:58You're useless!

01:04:58You lost the case,

01:04:59you lost your children,

01:05:00and now you're letting a woman

01:05:01walk all over you?

01:05:02I begged her.

01:05:02I got down on my knees

01:05:03and begged her.

01:05:04It didn't work.

01:05:04Nothing worked.

01:05:05Those boys are Andersons.

01:05:06They belong with this family,

01:05:07not with some woman

01:05:08who doesn't even have

01:05:09a family of her own.

01:05:09What the hell

01:05:09was I supposed to do?

01:05:10I even held a broken bottle

01:05:11to my own throat.

01:05:12If I push this any further,

01:05:13she'll use that video

01:05:14to ask for a protective order

01:05:15and have the court

01:05:16restrict my visitation.

01:05:17Those boys,

01:05:18they're the future

01:05:19of the Andersons family.

01:05:21Dad,

01:05:21please stop.

01:05:22Just take it easy.

01:05:23Breathe slowly.

01:05:24Look what you've done

01:05:25to your father.

01:05:26This family finally

01:05:27had twin boys,

01:05:28and you let that woman

01:05:29take both of them away.

01:05:30Then what the hell

01:05:31do you expect me to do?

01:05:32Do you want me to die?

01:05:33Charles Andersons,

01:05:35you're under arrest

01:05:36on suspicion

01:05:36of embezzling company funds,

01:05:38financial fraud,

01:05:39and witness tampering.

01:05:40We have a warrant

01:05:41for your arrest.

01:05:45Arrest me?

01:05:47What right do you have

01:05:48to arrest my son?

01:05:49Do you have any idea

01:05:50who you're dealing with?

01:05:51Let him go!

01:05:51Ma'am, step back.

01:05:52Interfere with this arrest again,

01:05:54and you'll be coming with us.

01:05:55Mom, stop, please!

01:05:57Sophia, you bitch!

01:05:58You destroyed

01:05:59the Andersons family!

01:06:03Dad!

01:06:04Dad, what's wrong?

01:06:05Dad, wake up!

01:06:07Somebody call an ambulance!

01:06:08Look, Charles got arrested.

01:06:10It's blowing up

01:06:11all over social media.

01:06:12Oh, that's it?

01:06:14Oh, you're not excited?

01:06:15You don't want to celebrate?

01:06:16Pop open a bottle of wine?

01:06:17I used to think

01:06:18that when the day finally came

01:06:19and I saw him

01:06:19get what he deserved,

01:06:20I'd laugh, I'd drink,

01:06:22I'd drag you onto the dance floor

01:06:23and dance all night.

01:06:24But now that it's actually happened,

01:06:25it doesn't feel like anything.

01:06:26Whether he goes to prison

01:06:27or goes bankrupt,

01:06:28it won't give me

01:06:29those ten years back.

01:06:30I already gave him

01:06:30the best years of my life.

01:06:31But those ten years

01:06:32weren't for nothing.

01:06:33You got the two greatest boys

01:06:33in the world out of them.

01:06:35From today on,

01:06:35every second of your life

01:06:36belongs to you.

01:06:38You're right.

01:06:39So from now on,

01:06:40the boys and I

01:06:40are finally going to

01:06:41start our new life.

01:06:44What are you doing here?

01:06:45If you're here to cause trouble,

01:06:46we're calling the police.

01:06:47I'm not here to cause trouble.

01:06:48I heard Sophia had moved

01:06:49into a new place,

01:06:50so I just wanted to stop by.

01:06:51It's okay, Michelle.

01:06:52Let her in.

01:06:55Sophia, congratulations.

01:06:56Have a seat.

01:06:58You're not here

01:06:58to plead Charles' case, are you?

01:07:00Because if you are,

01:07:01don't bother.

01:07:01No, no,

01:07:02that's not why I'm here.

01:07:03Charles brought this on himself.

01:07:05After everything he did

01:07:05to Sophia and the boys,

01:07:07even as his sister,

01:07:08I can't defend him.

01:07:09He needs to answer

01:07:10for what he did.

01:07:11Whatever consequences he faces,

01:07:13he brought them on himself.

01:07:14Well, look at that.

01:07:14An Anderson who actually

01:07:16has some sense.

01:07:17Actually,

01:07:17there is something else

01:07:19I wanted to ask.

01:07:20Sophia, my dad,

01:07:21he's getting older

01:07:22and his health

01:07:23has been getting worse.

01:07:24He really misses the boys.

01:07:25Would you consider

01:07:26letting Jaden and Jasper

01:07:27visit their grandpa

01:07:28once in a while?

01:07:29That's their decision.

01:07:30I'm not going to make it for them.

01:07:32No.

01:07:33Maybe when I'm older.

01:07:35Okay.

01:07:36Then we'll leave it up

01:07:37to you boys.

01:07:37I won't bother you anymore.

01:07:40Sophia, I'm sorry

01:07:41for everything this family

01:07:42put you through

01:07:43these past 10 years.

01:07:44It's in the past now.

01:07:45Yeah, you deserve

01:07:46a better life.

01:07:48Never thought she'd be

01:07:49the most decent

01:07:50Anderson of the bunch.

01:07:56Everyone, I'd like you

01:07:57to meet Sophia Miller,

01:07:58our new senior

01:07:59research scientist.

01:08:00Sophia studied here

01:08:0110 years ago

01:08:02and she was one of the

01:08:03most promising students

01:08:04I've ever mentored.

01:08:05Hi, everyone.

01:08:06I'm Sophia.

01:08:06It's great to meet you all.

01:08:08I'm really looking forward

01:08:08to working with you.

01:08:10Sophia, I've read

01:08:11those two papers

01:08:12you published

01:08:12in top journals

01:08:13back in grad school.

01:08:14They were way ahead

01:08:15of their time.

01:08:16Absolutely.

01:08:17We've been looking forward

01:08:17to having you back.

01:08:18What kind of wife

01:08:19spends all day

01:08:20holed up in a lab?

01:08:21What are you doing?

01:08:22That's my lab coat.

01:08:23Starting tomorrow,

01:08:23you're done.

01:08:24Quit the lab

01:08:24and stay home

01:08:25with the kids.

01:08:26Charles, I published

01:08:26two papers in top journals

01:08:28during grad school.

01:08:28Professor Quinn said

01:08:29I had real potential.

01:08:30I don't want to throw

01:08:31this opportunity away.

01:08:32What opportunity?

01:08:32I gave you a home.

01:08:33I made you Mrs. Anderson.

01:08:34Your job now is to

01:08:35take care of the kids

01:08:36in this house.

01:08:37I can work and take

01:08:37care of the boys.

01:08:38I can do both.

01:08:39I promise.

01:08:39Fine.

01:08:40Don't quit.

01:08:41I'll send the boys

01:08:42to my parents' estate

01:08:43and let my mother raise them.

01:08:44The Andersons can afford

01:08:45all the nannies we need.

01:08:46But once they're there,

01:08:47don't expect to see them again.

01:08:48Please,

01:08:49don't take my children

01:08:50away from me.

01:08:51Sophia,

01:08:52just do what I'm asking.

01:08:53I'm doing this

01:08:54for our family.

01:08:55Why does a wife and mother

01:08:56need a career in research?

01:08:57Put that energy

01:08:58into your family

01:08:59where it belonged.

01:09:00I finally understand now.

01:09:01Charles didn't marry me

01:09:02because he loved me.

01:09:03He married an orphan

01:09:04because I had no one

01:09:05to turn to.

01:09:05He knew I'd be easy

01:09:06to control.

01:09:07For ten years,

01:09:07he treated me like

01:09:08I was only there

01:09:08to give him children.

01:09:09He trapped me

01:09:10in that marriage.

01:09:10He never wanted a wife.

01:09:12He wanted someone

01:09:13he could control.

01:09:14And now,

01:09:14I finally found myself again.

01:09:17Welcome back, Sophia.

01:09:19This is where you belong.

01:09:21Sophia,

01:09:22I've got some huge news.

01:09:23Oh,

01:09:24what is it?

01:09:24Remember those other

01:09:25married men Lydia

01:09:26was involved with?

01:09:27Their wives hired me

01:09:28to trace the assets

01:09:29their husbands secretly moved

01:09:30and see what they can recover.

01:09:32Congratulations.

01:09:33Sounds like you're about

01:09:34to make a fortune

01:09:35in legal fees.

01:09:36Damn right.

01:09:37They've actually started

01:09:38working together

01:09:38and you were the one

01:09:39who inspired them.

01:09:40They're going after

01:09:41the husbands who betrayed them

01:09:42and fighting to recover

01:09:44for whatever

01:09:44they're legally entitled to.

01:09:46Good.

01:09:47I hope they get

01:09:48what they're owed

01:09:49and then move on

01:09:50with their lives.

01:09:51Jasper,

01:09:51what is this

01:09:51vocabulary homework?

01:09:53You seriously don't know

01:09:54what fickle means?

01:09:55Sure I do.

01:09:55It means you find

01:09:56someone else you like

01:09:57and go live with them.

01:09:58What kind of definition

01:09:59is that?

01:09:59That's not what it means.

01:10:00Well,

01:10:01that's what dad did

01:10:02and he's a bad guy.

01:10:04Shh.

01:10:05Don't let mom hear you.

01:10:07Just don't talk

01:10:08about dad anymore,

01:10:09okay?

01:10:09What Charles did to them

01:10:10isn't something

01:10:11that's going to disappear

01:10:12overnight.

01:10:14But they're dealing

01:10:15with all that pain

01:10:15on their own.

01:10:16They hide it from me

01:10:17because they don't

01:10:18want me to be sad.

01:10:19Don't worry.

01:10:20Those two boys of yours

01:10:20are stronger than you think.

01:10:21If I had a choice,

01:10:22I wish they didn't have

01:10:23to grow up so fast.

01:10:24I wish they could just

01:10:25be carefree kids

01:10:26a little longer.

01:10:26Here,

01:10:27I'll help you with this one.

01:10:28And next time,

01:10:29don't just make up

01:10:29your own definition.

01:10:30Then,

01:10:31Jaden,

01:10:31what does fickle

01:10:32actually mean?

01:10:33It's when someone

01:10:34used to love someone,

01:10:35but then their feelings

01:10:36change.

01:10:36But why do people's

01:10:38feelings change?

01:10:38I never thought

01:10:39a nine-year-old

01:10:40could see straight

01:10:41to the heart of it.

01:10:42They've seen what

01:10:42a bad example looks like.

01:10:45That's why they know

01:10:46what a good one should be.

01:10:47Maybe,

01:10:48like on TV,

01:10:49they think they'll

01:10:50find someone better.

01:10:51Oh,

01:10:51okay,

01:10:52then I'm not watching

01:10:53TV anymore.

01:10:54Let's just do

01:10:55the next question.

01:10:56Jaden,

01:10:57you're not going to

01:10:58change like that,

01:10:59are you?

01:11:00Never.

01:11:00I'm your big brother.

01:11:01I'll always protect

01:11:02you and Mom.

01:11:04And hear that?

01:11:05Those boys know

01:11:05exactly what matters.

01:11:06Yeah,

01:11:07better than I did.

01:11:08Jaden,

01:11:09Jasper,

01:11:09almost done with

01:11:10your homework.

01:11:10I'll cut up some fruit

01:11:11for you when you're

01:11:12finished.

01:11:12Almost.

01:11:13I want watermelon.

01:11:15You got it.

01:11:19Jaden,

01:11:19you're still keeping

01:11:20a diary?

01:11:20Mom,

01:11:21this one's new.

01:11:21Oh,

01:11:22what did you write?

01:11:22Can Mommy see?

01:11:25Jaden,

01:11:26thank you.

01:11:26Mom,

01:11:27Jasper and I

01:11:27will always be here

01:11:28for you.

01:11:28We'll protect you.

01:11:29And I'll always be here

01:11:30for you and Jasper.

01:11:31I'll love and protect

01:11:32both of you no matter

01:11:33what.

01:11:33Mom?

01:11:35Jasper,

01:11:36what's wrong?

01:11:37Mom,

01:11:37I want to sleep

01:11:38with you tonight.

01:11:38You're nine years old

01:11:40and you still want

01:11:40to sleep with Mom?

01:11:41I don't care.

01:11:42I'm sleeping with

01:11:43Mom tonight.

01:11:44Okay, okay.

01:11:45You can sleep with me.

01:11:46Jaden,

01:11:46you come too?

01:11:48Okay.

01:11:50Mom?

01:11:51Hmm?

01:11:51In every life

01:11:53after this one,

01:11:54can you still

01:11:55be our mom?

01:11:55They said something

01:11:56like this

01:11:57when they were six.

01:11:59Mom,

01:11:59we met you up

01:12:00in heaven

01:12:00before we were born.

01:12:01Oh,

01:12:02really?

01:12:02There were tons

01:12:03of kids lined up

01:12:03picking their moms.

01:12:05Jasper and I

01:12:05both wanted you

01:12:06and then we started

01:12:07fighting over you.

01:12:08Neither of us

01:12:09would give up.

01:12:09Then,

01:12:10it ended in a tie

01:12:11and somebody said,

01:12:13then why don't you

01:12:13both pick her

01:12:14to be your mom?

01:12:14They were only six.

01:12:15Maybe it was just

01:12:16a beautiful dream,

01:12:17but I'd rather believe

01:12:18that some people

01:12:19are simply meant

01:12:19to find each other.

01:12:20Thank you God

01:12:21for giving me

01:12:21these two incredible boys.

01:12:23I couldn't ask

01:12:23for anything more.

01:12:25Jaden,

01:12:25Jasper,

01:12:26time to sleep.

01:12:27Tomorrow's a brand new day.

01:12:28Mom,

01:12:29I love you.

01:12:30Mom,

01:12:30I love you too.

01:12:32Mommy loves you both too,

01:12:34more than anything

01:12:35in the world.
