An overweight sewer worker Mason Brooks takes the blame for his best friend’s construction accident and spends three years in prison. Upon release, he discovers his wife has betrayed him, and his once‑trusted friend has taken over his family. Penniless, humiliated and cut off from his beloved daughter Sophie, he accidentally picks up a discarded lottery ticket which wins him a staggering 500‑million‑dollar jackpot. With massive wealth, he pays for his father’s medical treatment, embarks on tough fitness transformation, and fights hard for his daughter’s custody. Gradually, he exposes his former friend’s crime, rebuilds a warm home for Sophie, and meets Erin, a kind‑hearted old classmate. From a despised bottom‑level laborer to a dignified man, Mason rewrites his shattered life with money, perseverance and fatherly love.

00:00:00$500 million! I actually won $500 million!
00:00:08Sophie, Daddy misses you so much.
00:00:13Olivia will be happy to see me.
00:00:16Derek came. He must be here to celebrate my release.
00:00:26Olivia?
00:00:33Close the door.
00:00:34Don't bring the stench of prison into my house.
00:00:36This is my house.
00:00:38It was three years ago. It isn't anymore.
00:00:41Three years ago, you begged me to take the fall.
00:00:44I went to prison for you for three years.
00:00:47And this is how you take care of my wife and daughter?
00:00:52Mason, you come home reeking.
00:00:55I can't even stand the thought of you in my bed.
00:00:59After you went inside, Sophie asked me where Daddy was,
00:01:02and I couldn't even tell her that her father is a fat slob who crawls through shit.
00:01:11For three years, I've been the one celebrating Sophie's birthdays and taking her to school.
00:01:17I gave her a good school, nice clothes, and a clean home.
00:01:20What can you give her?
00:01:23Fine.
00:01:24You two want to be together? I'll let you.
00:01:27But Sophie is my daughter.
00:01:29I'm taking her with me.
00:01:33Take her?
00:01:34You can't even support yourself, and you want to raise a child?
00:01:37Sophie will only be looked down on her whole life if she stays with you.
00:01:41Mommy, why is it so noisy?
00:01:49Daddy?
00:01:51Daddy missed you, too.
00:01:55Mommy, I want to be with Daddy!
00:01:57You are not going with him.
00:01:59Sophie, look at him right now. Do you really want him as your father?
00:02:01Mason, don't ruin this child.
00:02:03If Sophie stays with you, she'll only get bullied at school for having a fat, broke sewer worker dad.
00:02:07Are you willing to let her suffer that?
00:02:08I don't care if Daddy is fat!
00:02:10Sophie, Daddy doesn't have money right now, but Daddy will make sure you have a good life.
00:02:17Get lost. This is my home now.
00:02:21Daddy promises.
00:02:28$4.
00:02:29Can I pay you back tomorrow?
00:02:30I'll work tonight. I promise I'll pay you back.
00:02:32This isn't a charity. If you can't pay, put it back.
00:02:39Ten years of buying tickets and never won a single jackpot.
00:02:52Top prize is $500 million?
00:02:56$500 million. I don't even have 50 bucks right now.
00:03:00Only three years gone, and prices have gone up this much.
00:03:07I can't win $500 million. Maybe I can win a small prize. That's still money.
00:03:11The mall's underground sewage is backing up. $500 to whoever can clear it.
00:03:14Not for $500. That job is disgusting. Who can stand that smell?
00:03:17You need professional cleaners. Who dare go down there?
00:03:19I can do it.
00:03:20You? Can you even fit down there? Don't get stuck or we'll have to haul you out.
00:03:23I used to do this for a living.
00:03:24Fine. If you screw it up, you don't get a cent.
00:03:29Daddy!
00:03:31Sophie, you see this? This is your father.
00:03:33Stay with him, and you'll end up living in some filthy basement smelling like a sewer every single day.
00:03:38Hey, Fatsy, stop staying around. Are you going down or not?
00:03:40That fat, he's really going down there? He'll probably block the access hatch even more.
00:03:50Daddy, don't go. It must be so smelly down there.
00:03:58Sophie, Daddy is fat and broke right now. But Daddy isn't afraid of dirt, and he isn't afraid of hard
00:04:03work.
00:04:04Daddy will give you a better life. When that day comes, I'll come take you home myself.
00:04:10I'll wait for you, Daddy.
00:04:23Oh, it's clear. He actually cleared it.
00:04:28Register here. Show me your ID.
00:04:32You just got out today.
00:04:34Does that matter?
00:04:35Take this and get out.
00:04:37We agreed on 500.
00:04:38A fat ex-con crawling into mall pipes.
00:04:41How do I know you didn't damage something?
00:04:42The pipes are clear and undamaged. Leave now, or I'll call the police and say you deliberately damaged mall property
00:04:48and tried to extort me.
00:04:49Let it go, man. You just got out. Don't get into more trouble.
00:04:54Mason, they're doing you a favor giving you 50.
00:04:56Sophie, see? Your bather busts his ass crawling through filth and still can't get paid.
00:05:00Stay with him, and you won't even afford a hot meal.
00:05:02No! Daddy won't be like this!
00:05:04Sophie, Daddy will earn money. What Daddy promised you, he will do.
00:05:09Get out! Don't come back!
00:05:11The mall doesn't welcome people like you.
00:05:19Mason, come home quickly!
00:05:23Mason, come back quickly.
00:05:25Your father suddenly collapsed and was taken to the hospital.
00:05:31What did the doctor say?
00:05:33The doctor says we need to pay a deposit for his hospital staying in the next few days.
00:05:38I can't scrape it together.
00:05:42You just got out today.
00:05:44I didn't want to burden you.
00:05:47Are Olivia and Sophie okay?
00:05:50Bring them with you.
00:05:52Your father has been missing his granddaughter.
00:05:56Mom, don't be scared. I'm doing fine.
00:05:59Don't worry about the money. I'll figure it out.
00:06:02I'll bring Sophie to see Dad.
00:06:09Olivia, my father is in the hospital. He wants to see Sophie.
00:06:12I need to take her back with me.
00:06:14With what?
00:06:15The $50 you made today won't even cover your own dinner.
00:06:18You want Sophie to ride long-distance buses and stay in cheap motels with you?
00:06:23When she goes back to school, how will she tell her classmates that her father is a fat,
00:06:27stinking sewer cleaner who can't hold a job?
00:06:30Daddy, I want to go see Grandpa!
00:06:33No!
00:06:35Mason, you can't even support yourself.
00:06:37Sophie will only grow up ashamed if she stayed with you.
00:06:39I will earn money. I won't let Sophie suffer.
00:06:42With what? Your sewer hook?
00:06:45Daddy, why did I need to see Grandpa?
00:06:48I can carry goods. I can start tonight.
00:06:54You're too fat. You'll be wheezing after two boxes.
00:06:56We need people who can work, not a liability with a record.
00:07:02My restaurant! What am I going to do?
00:07:05I'll do it.
00:07:07Don't make it worse.
00:07:15I didn't expect you to actually know what you're doing.
00:07:18Call me fat. Call me broke. Doesn't matter.
00:07:21As long as I can still work,
00:07:24I won't make Sophie wait too long.
00:07:26Who can clear this drain?
00:07:2850 bucks if you fix it.
00:07:30Who can unclog this drain?
00:07:3250 dollars if you fix it.
00:07:3550.
00:07:36That job stinks and it's exhausting.
00:07:39Not worth it.
00:07:40Yeah, you go down there and you'll stink for a week.
00:07:42Can't get any other work tomorrow.
00:07:44Boss, I'll do it.
00:07:47You?
00:07:48You'll probably just waste my time.
00:07:5030 is fine.
00:07:51As long as you let my try.
00:07:52If I can't fix it, I won't take a cent.
00:07:55Fat like that fighting for dirty work?
00:07:56You must be desperate.
00:07:57Every extra dollar means Sophie waits one less day.
00:08:02What kind of guy takes this kind of job?
00:08:12It actually worked.
00:08:13Here, didn't expect you to actually know what you're doing.
00:08:18Dad, Sophie, just give me a little more time.
00:08:22This week's jackpot has rolled over to 500 million dollars.
00:08:26The largest jackpot in history.
00:08:33500 million, luck like that doesn't happen to a broke, fat guy like me.
00:08:39Coming up next, we will reveal the winning numbers for this week's super jackpot.
00:08:45Third prize numbers, 0-3, 16, 27.
00:08:50Can't even win 500.
00:08:52Next, the second prize numbers.
00:08:53First number, 0-7.
00:08:56I matched.
00:08:57First number, 28.
00:09:01I knew it.
00:09:02Not that easy.
00:09:03Will be announced in a special live broadcast tomorrow.
00:09:06No third prize, no second prize.
00:09:08500 million, even more impossible.
00:09:10Lottery tickets are just a scam for poor people.
00:09:13Wash this row, and you get 20.
00:09:16Move these, $10.
00:09:23Move out tomorrow.
00:09:24You stink up my property with all that sewer work.
00:09:27Perfect timing.
00:09:28Derek and I are taking Sophie on a trip to Europe tomorrow.
00:09:31After that, we're moving there permanently.
00:09:32You're taking Sophie away?
00:09:33That's right.
00:09:34She's leaving you.
00:09:34She'll live in a big house, attend the best schools, and never have to smell your sewer stench again.
00:09:38I'm her father.
00:09:39When Sophie starts at her new school, I'll be listed as her father on the forums.
00:09:44In a few years, she won't even want to mention the fat, broke, sewer-diving man who fathered her.
00:09:49Daddy, I don't want to go.
00:09:52Sophie will forget you, and you need to face reality.
00:09:55Stop dreaming about seeing her.
00:10:06Now announcing the winning numbers for the $500 million super jackpot.
00:10:100-7-12-19-31-42, special number 09.
00:10:14Congratulations to this week's sole jackpot winner, $500 million.
00:10:20Time's up.
00:10:21Get out.
00:10:22Give me one more day.
00:10:23I'll pay the rent tomorrow.
00:10:24I promise.
00:10:25You said the same thing yesterday.
00:10:27Take the stinking trash with you.
00:10:30Don't leave it in my house.
00:10:33Last night's $500 million jackpot numbers were 19-31-42, special number 9.
00:10:390-7-12-19.
00:10:44Why do those numbers look so familiar?
00:10:50$500 million, someone like me could never win.
00:10:56My lottery ticket!
00:10:59Oh, now you're fighting over garbage?
00:11:12I actually won $500 million!
00:11:15$500 million.
00:11:17It actually hit my account.
00:11:20A few days ago, I was digging through trash for food.
00:11:24Today, I'm rich.
00:11:28Mason, where did you get this much money?
00:11:30Use the best medicine for Dad.
00:11:32Get him the best room.
00:11:33Don't worry about money anymore.
00:11:35Did you do something illegal again?
00:11:37No.
00:11:38I bought some stocks before.
00:11:39They went up, and I made a lot of money.
00:11:41I'm doing fine now.
00:11:44Before, every day was about rent, food, work.
00:11:49I didn't even have time to lose weight.
00:11:51Just surviving was hard enough.
00:11:55Things are different now.
00:11:56I need to get in shape.
00:12:00Daddy!
00:12:01Sophie, don't go.
00:12:02Come home with Daddy.
00:12:04Daddy will give you a home and make your life better than anyone else's.
00:12:08Are you insane?
00:12:09What gives you the right to take her?
00:12:12Looking like that, you think you deserve to have Sophie with you?
00:12:15I want to go with Daddy.
00:12:19Mason, you can't even feed yourself.
00:12:21What are you going to raise her with?
00:12:23Go on.
00:12:24Say it.
00:12:24On what grounds?
00:12:26On the grounds that I'm rich now.
00:12:29You rich, Mason.
00:12:31Don't make me laugh.
00:12:32A sewer diving fat guy saying he's rich?
00:12:34Who's going to believe that?
00:12:35Today you say you're rich.
00:12:36Tomorrow are you going to say you lost weight and turned into a handsome guy?
00:12:39With a body like this, you'd be out of breath after two steps.
00:12:42You want to come back?
00:12:42Lose the fat first, then learn to talk big.
00:12:47Sophie, is that fat uncle really your dad?
00:12:49He's so fat, can he even run?
00:12:50Does he live in a sewer?
00:12:52Don't talk about my daddy like that!
00:12:55See?
00:12:55If she stays with you, she'll only be laughed at by everyone.
00:12:59Sophie won't be ashamed of me.
00:13:00Not now, because she's still young.
00:13:03But when she grows up and realizes other kids' dads drive nice cars and live in nice houses
00:13:06while her dad is an ex-con, sewer-cleaning fatso, she'll hate you.
00:13:10Look at you.
00:13:10I give her a future, you give her a lifetime of shame.
00:13:13If you really cared for Sophie, you'd stay away from her and stop using your pathetic fatherly love to trap
00:13:16her.
00:13:17I just want to be her father.
00:13:18Look at you.
00:13:18No money, no job, no body, no skills.
00:13:20Three years ago, you were only fit for sewers.
00:13:22Three years later, still only fit for sewers.
00:13:27Daddy, I don't want to go!
00:13:29Mason, stop dreaming.
00:13:31The best thing you can give Sophie is to stay out of her life.
00:13:36Goodbye, fat pig.
00:13:37Enjoy your pig's bid.
00:13:47That fat, he should just stop before he ends up in the hospital.
00:13:57Olivia's right.
00:13:58I can't let my daughter be bullied at school because of me.
00:14:07Mason, your father is doing much better.
00:14:10The doctor says it's because the money came in time.
00:14:12He can be discharged in a few days.
00:14:15That's good.
00:14:16There's something else.
00:14:17I just found out you and Olivia are divorced.
00:14:23Why didn't you tell me earlier I just found out how much you've been suffering?
00:14:28Mom, I'm doing fine now.
00:14:29I even bought a car.
00:14:30Don't go spending recklessly.
00:14:32Anyway, I have a friend whose daughter is a great match.
00:14:36She says she doesn't care about money or looks.
00:14:38She just wants someone steady and dependable.
00:14:41Mom, I'm not in the mood for that right now.
00:14:43You're still young.
00:14:45You can't keep going alone forever.
00:14:47I'm still fat and ugly.
00:14:49What's the point of meeting someone?
00:14:51What's wrong with being a little heavy?
00:14:53You work hard and you're good to your child.
00:14:56That's worth more than a pretty face.
00:14:58This weekend, just meet her.
00:15:01Don't leave me worrying about you all the time.
00:15:06Fine.
00:15:07I've been losing weight lately.
00:15:08Maybe I've slimmed down enough that she'll actually like me.
00:15:12I'll go.
00:15:15Mom is right.
00:15:16I can't hide from people forever.
00:15:23Sir, would you like to order?
00:15:26I'm waiting for someone.
00:15:34Are you Mason Brooks?
00:15:40You're my blind date?
00:15:43You're my blind date?
00:15:44Yes, I'm Mason.
00:15:46I'm Mason.
00:15:50Let's get this straight.
00:15:51I've never been married, I'm good looking, and I'm a high quality woman.
00:15:54My standards are not low.
00:15:55What kind of conditions do you want?
00:15:57House, car, and a nanny all must be provided.
00:15:59I don't like working, it's too restrictive, so you also need to give me monthly living expenses.
00:16:04Those are pretty high demands.
00:16:05You must be offering a lot in return.
00:16:07The fact that I'm willing to marry you is already the biggest thing I could offer.
00:16:10What about housework, elderly parents, and children?
00:16:13Those are all things the man should handle.
00:16:15Do you have children?
00:16:16I have a daughter.
00:16:17She lives with her mother.
00:16:19Good.
00:16:20Just don't let her bother me in the future.
00:16:22She's my daughter.
00:16:23She's not a bother.
00:16:24I don't want children, and I don't want to take care of one.
00:16:26If we get married, you'd better get a vasectomy.
00:16:28Don't make trouble for me.
00:16:30Young lady, are you here to find a husband or a free butler and wallet?
00:16:34Ma'am, stay out of this.
00:16:36I'm a modern, high quality, independent woman.
00:16:38I have every right to have requirements for my future life.
00:16:40Independent?
00:16:41You want the man to buy the house, earn the money, and handle all the kids and elderly?
00:16:44Where's the independence in that?
00:16:45You can have high standards for your life, but you can't treat someone else's effort
00:16:48as your entitlement.
00:16:49So what do you do for work?
00:16:51I clear sewers.
00:16:52Fat, divorced with a kid, and a sewer cleaner, Mason.
00:16:54Did your mom think I'm blind or stupid?
00:16:56If you're not satisfied.
00:16:58Posting this so all my girls can avoid this disaster.
00:17:00Sisters, I got set up on a blind date with a fat pig today.
00:17:03Almost threw up.
00:17:10Since you don't want to continue, I'll take my leave.
00:17:14At least you know yourself.
00:17:16Nobody would ever like someone like you.
00:17:18Young man, don't take it to heart.
00:17:21It's fine.
00:17:28See that car?
00:17:29The owner of a sports bar like that is the only kind of man who deserves me.
00:17:34Someone like you can't even afford a wheel on that thing.
00:17:39So where's your car parked?
00:17:43Right over there.
00:17:50You mean that bicycle?
00:17:52Of course.
00:17:54Sports cars for me, bicycles for you.
00:17:56Fair enough.
00:17:57Just be careful when you get on.
00:17:58Don't break the frame.
00:18:00Come on.
00:18:01A fat pig riding a bike?
00:18:04Let me give my followers some bonus content.
00:18:12Look.
00:18:13He's actually going to ride it.
00:18:19A bike like that and he still locks it up?
00:18:22Who'd steal it?
00:18:24What are you pretending?
00:18:25You think that car has anything to do with you?
00:18:38This car is yours?
00:18:40Who else is?
00:18:45Mason, I was just joking earlier.
00:18:47If you have a car like this, why didn't you say so?
00:18:50Did you ever ask?
00:18:51You only asked if I was fat, poor, and whether I deserved you.
00:18:57That's not what I meant.
00:18:59I just have some insecurities.
00:19:01I just want a man who can give me security.
00:19:04You were never interested in me.
00:19:06You were interested in this car.
00:19:07We can start over.
00:19:09However, I'm actually very caring.
00:19:12Can I sit in your car for a bit?
00:19:15I know exactly how to please a man.
00:19:19No need.
00:19:20I don't lack a car, and I don't lack money.
00:19:23And I definitely don't lack someone who looks down on me.
00:19:29Mason, I'll delete that post right now.
00:19:31No, I shouldn't have treated you like that.
00:19:34Keep it.
00:19:39My money!
00:19:41Serves a right.
00:19:44Daddy, I'm at my new school now.
00:19:47Are you settling in okay?
00:19:48The teacher says there's a parent-teacher meeting next month.
00:19:51Daddy, can you come?
00:19:53Daddy promises.
00:19:53I'll be there.
00:19:54Really?
00:19:55I want all my classmates to meet you.
00:19:58You have to wear your nicest outfit.
00:20:03Who said you could call him?
00:20:05Sophie invited me to the parent-teacher meeting.
00:20:07A fat slob like you, standing in the classroom dripping sweat?
00:20:11With your pig face for everyone to see?
00:20:13I told her I'd go.
00:20:14Then come.
00:20:15Let's see how much humiliation you can bring to Sophie.
00:20:17Don't worry.
00:20:18When the meeting comes in a month, I'll be there.
00:20:32Sophie, Daddy kept his promise.
00:20:39Still plenty of time.
00:20:42Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to Harborview Elementary?
00:20:45Just look it up yourself.
00:20:47I'm busy.
00:20:51Harborview Elementary?
00:20:53I know where that is.
00:20:54I can take you there.
00:20:55No need.
00:20:56Just point me in the right direction.
00:20:57Hey, handsome.
00:20:58Can I get your number?
00:21:01Sorry, I have a daughter.
00:21:03She's having her parent-teacher meeting today, and I can't be late.
00:21:09A father with a daughter?
00:21:11Even hotter.
00:21:12I'd love to call him Daddy in bed.
00:21:17Mason said he was coming.
00:21:18I bet he won't dare show up.
00:21:20I hope he does.
00:21:21Then everyone can see what a fat, filthy loser Sophie's real father is.
00:21:31Whose parent is that?
00:21:37Is he a model or something?
00:21:42Which kid's father is that?
00:21:43He's better looking than a movie star.
00:21:47Who is this guy?
00:21:49No idea.
00:21:50Must be some rich parent.
00:21:51Sophie's biological father is nothing like him.
00:21:53He's fat, filthy, and clean sewers for a living.
00:21:56If he shows up, he'll only embarrass himself.
00:21:58Better if he doesn't come.
00:22:00Hello.
00:22:01Are you here for the parent-teacher meeting?
00:22:03Yes.
00:22:05Which student are you here for?
00:22:10He's so handsome.
00:22:12I wish my dad looked like that.
00:22:16Whose dad is that?
00:22:18He's ridiculously good-looking.
00:22:21Sophie, is he the father of a new classmate?
00:22:23I've never seen him before.
00:22:27Who the hell is this?
00:22:28No clue.
00:22:30He looks nothing like that fatso Mason.
00:22:39Sophie, where are you going?
00:22:41Sophie, come back here.
00:22:45He's my daddy.
00:22:48He's my daddy.
00:22:52Sophie, I thought you said your dad was fat.
00:22:55How is he this good-looking?
00:22:57My daddy has always been amazing.
00:23:00So you're Sophie's father.
00:23:02She's been saying all along that her daddy would definitely come to the parent meeting.
00:23:05She really loves you.
00:23:08Daddy always keeps his promises.
00:23:12Impossible.
00:23:13Who are you really?
00:23:15I get it now.
00:23:17Mason was too scared to come, so he paid you to pretend to be him.
00:23:20That suit must not be cheap.
00:23:22He really splurged just to save face.
00:23:24Mason is probably still clearing sewers right now, weasing and sweating.
00:23:28A loser like that has no right to stand in a place like this.
00:23:33Hey, handsome.
00:23:35How much did Mason pay you?
00:23:37Take the money and do the job, but don't lie to Sophie.
00:23:39She'll actually believe it.
00:23:41When she meets her real father, it'll break her heart even more.
00:23:46Don't you talk about my daddy like that.
00:23:52Olivia, don't you recognize me?
00:23:58You... you really are, Mason.
00:24:01Impossible.
00:24:01A month ago, you were a fat pig.
00:24:03How could you turn into this?
00:24:05You two kept saying I should lose weight.
00:24:07I thought you were right, so I did it.
00:24:09Don't act like some inspiration story.
00:24:11There's no way you did this on your own.
00:24:13You must have gotten liposuction or plastic surgery.
00:24:16After liposuction, the skin gets all loose and saggy, like rotting meat hanging off your body.
00:24:20No matter how well your suit covers it up, you're still the same piece of trash underneath.
00:24:25Under that shirt, I bet your skin is just hanging off you.
00:24:28Olivia, you still can't stop looking down on people.
00:24:31Then prove it.
00:24:32Show everyone.
00:24:33This is a school, not a stage for your tantrums.
00:24:36Not daring means you're guilty.
00:24:38You think putting on a suit can fool everyone?
00:24:40Don't be fooled, everyone.
00:24:42He used to be so fat he could barely fit down a sewer hatch.
00:24:48I have to make him lose face in front of Sophie.
00:24:52Olivia, what are you doing?
00:24:54Let everyone see what you're hiding.
00:24:57Don't cause a scene here.
00:25:09How is that even possible?
00:25:11A month ago he was fat and now he's built like this?
00:25:13That must have been brutal training.
00:25:15Can I just...
00:25:16What do you think you're doing?
00:25:17Impossible.
00:25:17How did you lose it?
00:25:19Are you on drugs?
00:25:19Did you get surgery?
00:25:21No shortcuts.
00:25:22Eat a little less every day.
00:25:24Run a little more.
00:25:25Rest when I'm tired, then keep going.
00:25:27Before, I fought just to survive.
00:25:29Now I'm changing for Sophie.
00:25:36Sophie, your dad is awesome.
00:25:38My dad could never get abs like that.
00:25:42You little brat.
00:25:43Is that how you talk about your old man?
00:25:47Come on, sweetheart.
00:25:49Daddy's taking you to the amusement park.
00:25:50Really?
00:25:51Really?
00:25:54No, Sophie is not going with you.
00:25:57I want to play with Daddy.
00:25:58She said she wants to go.
00:25:59No, you can't stop her.
00:26:06Where did you get this kind of money?
00:26:10I knew it.
00:26:12You won the lottery.
00:26:15The recent lottery drawing.
00:26:17Did you win third prize or second prize?
00:26:20Got a bit of dumb luck?
00:26:22And now you're renting luxury cars and hiring drivers to play rich?
00:26:26A one-day rental isn't cheap, is it?
00:26:28Once the money runs out, you'll still be that sewer-cleaning bottom feeder.
00:26:32You'll never climb up.
00:26:33Do you want to go to the amusement park?
00:26:35Yes!
00:26:35I don't agree to this.
00:26:37Mommy, I just want to play with Daddy for a little while.
00:26:40Have you forgotten how he used to live?
00:26:41But Daddy has changed.
00:26:44Your child wants to spend time with her father.
00:26:47You shouldn't put adult conflicts on her.
00:26:50Go ahead.
00:26:50Go see his rented car and his rented amusement park.
00:26:54When the money runs out, who can take care of Sophie isn't decided by words.
00:26:59Sophie can feel for herself who truly cares about her.
00:27:04Daddy, is this really your car?
00:27:06Of course.
00:27:06When has Daddy ever lied to you?
00:27:08Can I eat snacks in here?
00:27:09I'm afraid of making it dirty.
00:27:11The car can be washed.
00:27:13From now on, Daddy will never miss a happy day with you again.
00:27:23Daddy, the amusement park is so big.
00:27:26Uncle Derek never took me here.
00:27:29Whatever you want to play today, Daddy will be right there with you.
00:27:34Daddy, can we really go in?
00:27:37Of course.
00:27:38I've only seen these in photos from my classmates.
00:27:43From now on, whenever you want to come, just tell Daddy.
00:27:47Daddy will bring you.
00:27:49Daddy, you come too!
00:27:52Will Daddy fit?
00:27:54You fit now.
00:27:57Daddy, you're so much faster than before.
00:28:00Daddy will get even better.
00:28:05It's okay, Daddy.
00:28:06You're already amazing.
00:28:08One more time.
00:28:15Daddy won!
00:28:17Daddy, will you ever leave again?
00:28:22No.
00:28:23Before, Daddy had no choice.
00:28:25But now, Daddy has the means.
00:28:26As long as you call for Daddy, Daddy will come.
00:28:29Pinky promise?
00:28:36Excuse me.
00:28:37Are you Mason?
00:28:39I am.
00:28:40And you are?
00:28:42Aaron.
00:28:43Senior year of high school, I sat behind you.
00:28:46You used to lend me your eraser all the time.
00:28:50You still remember.
00:28:51You've changed so much, I almost didn't recognize you.
00:28:53I know, I used to block your view of the blackboard.
00:28:55I just broke up with someone and came to the amusement park alone to clear my head.
00:28:58Didn't expect to run into an old classmate.
00:29:00Alone at the amusement park?
00:29:02Better than being alone at home.
00:29:04Daddy, who is this lady?
00:29:06Daddy's old classmate, Aaron.
00:29:08Hi, Sophie.
00:29:10Aaron, are you here by yourself?
00:29:11Yes.
00:29:12Then come play with us.
00:29:15If you don't mind, we were just about to ride the Ferris wheel.
00:29:17Sure.
00:29:20Your daughter is adorable.
00:29:22She's braver than I am.
00:29:26So you already have a family.
00:29:28Sophie's mother and I are already divorced.
00:29:32Really?
00:29:32That's great.
00:29:36No, wait.
00:29:36I mean, that's terrible.
00:29:37Divorce is never a good thing.
00:29:39It's okay.
00:29:39I know what you meant.
00:29:44Three years ago, I went to prison for my best friend, Derek.
00:29:48I thought he would take care of Olivia and my daughter.
00:29:50When I got out, they were already together.
00:29:53Derek, weren't you two like brothers?
00:29:55You never really know people.
00:29:57Those two?
00:29:57I never liked either of them back then.
00:29:59That wasn't your fault.
00:30:01They betrayed you.
00:30:04The fact that you changed yourself this much for your daughter, that's already incredible.
00:30:09My daddy is the best.
00:30:16Let's not think about those awful people today.
00:30:18Let me treat Sophie to some ice cream.
00:30:19Yay!
00:30:21I can't let you pay.
00:30:22Old classmate, a little ice cream is nothing.
00:30:27Aaron, will you come play with us again?
00:30:31As long as your daddy doesn't mind me intruding.
00:30:35I won't.
00:30:42I used to be on the shooting team in school.
00:30:44Let me try.
00:30:48Aaron is amazing!
00:30:53Even though you're losing weight, you still need to eat.
00:30:57I'm afraid of gaining it back.
00:30:59You've already done enough.
00:31:01Don't push your body too hard.
00:31:04Daddy needs to eat so he has energy to play with me.
00:31:11Daddy on the left, Aaron on the right.
00:31:14And Sophie in the middle.
00:31:22If you don't like it, I can throw it away.
00:31:25No need.
00:31:26I like it.
00:31:27It's nice.
00:31:28My first photo with Sophie since I got out.
00:31:30You seem to be doing well now.
00:31:33Hmm.
00:31:33I guess so.
00:31:35That's good.
00:31:39I should get going.
00:31:40Don't go, Aaron.
00:31:43I'll play with you again next time.
00:31:46Old classmate, can I get your contact?
00:31:50If Sophie ever wants to come back, or if you need someone to accompany her, you can reach out.
00:31:57Okay.
00:31:58Thanks for today.
00:31:59Thanks, Sophie.
00:32:00She's the one who invited me.
00:32:01Bye, Aaron.
00:32:02See you next time.
00:32:03See you next time.
00:32:05Daddy, is Aaron going to be my new mommy?
00:32:10Don't say things like that, sweetheart.
00:32:11I'm not making it up.
00:32:13The way she looks at you from how mommy looks at Uncle Derek.
00:32:18You don't understand these things yet.
00:32:20Then can Aaron be my friend?
00:32:23Of course.
00:32:24And Daddy's friend, too?
00:32:26Yes.
00:32:31Daddy, when will I see you again?
00:32:33Soon.
00:32:34As long as you want.
00:32:35Even tomorrow.
00:32:45Who is this woman?
00:32:47That's Aaron.
00:32:48She spent the whole day playing with me and Daddy.
00:32:52Who is she?
00:32:55My old classmate.
00:32:59You just got a little money, and you're already rushing to find a new woman?
00:33:02Who I see is none of your business.
00:33:04And besides, we're divorced.
00:33:06Even if I really were marrying her, it would have nothing to do with you.
00:33:08Just like you and Derek being together has nothing to do with me.
00:33:11Mommy, Aaron is not a bad person.
00:33:13She played with me, and we had so much fun.
00:33:16Sophie, you're too young.
00:33:18You don't know what some women are after.
00:33:20At least she never stood in front of our daughter and called her father fat and smelly.
00:33:31What, you regret choosing me?
00:33:33I just think he's changed too fast.
00:33:36He just got lucky.
00:33:38Once the money runs out, that woman will run faster than anyone.
00:33:42And Sophie will understand who really cares about her.
00:34:13I just think he's changed too fast.
00:34:22Sophie is growing up.
00:34:24She can't just hold everything in her arms.
00:34:26She should have her own room, her own toys.
00:34:29It's time to give her a real home.
00:34:36Welcome, sir.
00:34:38Do you have an appointment for a townhouse or the penthouse?
00:34:41I'd like to see something suitable for a child.
00:34:44Of course.
00:34:44When will your wife and child be joining us?
00:34:47I'll look on my own first.
00:34:48My daughter is still with her mother.
00:34:55How's the natural light in the children's room?
00:34:57Is it close to schools?
00:34:58Can the balcony fit an easel?
00:35:00All good.
00:35:01I'd like to see the showroom.
00:35:05Sir, the penthouse isn't cheap.
00:35:07I know.
00:35:08But I still need to take a look first.
00:35:10Take your time.
00:35:11I have to attend to customers with appointments.
00:35:19Mason, what are you doing here?
00:35:21Aaron, what a coincidence.
00:35:23I'm looking at a place for Sophie.
00:35:26Don't mind them.
00:35:27They always look down on people like that.
00:35:28I work here.
00:35:29If no one's helping you, I'll show you around.
00:35:36Don't feel pressured.
00:35:37You don't have to buy.
00:35:38I don't have any clients today anyway.
00:35:40Just treat it as catching up with an old classmate.
00:35:43How long have you worked here?
00:35:45Almost a year.
00:35:46How many units have you sold?
00:35:49Not one.
00:35:50If I don't close a sale this month, I might be let go.
00:35:54Because this place is too expensive?
00:35:56Maybe because I'm not good at sweet-talking.
00:35:58Or maybe because I'm not as snobbish as they are.
00:36:07Sophie likes to draw.
00:36:08Does this room get afternoon sun?
00:36:10Yes.
00:36:10And the balcony can be converted into a little art corner.
00:36:13Will it be too bright?
00:36:15No, it won't be harsh.
00:36:17If there are a lot of toys, will they fit?
00:36:20This entire wall can be used for storage.
00:36:22Sophie also loves dollhouses.
00:36:24There's a perfect spot right next to the balcony.
00:36:27She'll love this place.
00:36:32Aaron's so desperate for a sale, she'll take any client.
00:36:35That guy is pretty handsome, though.
00:36:38So what?
00:36:39Probably some pretty boy sponging off a rich woman, just here to daydream.
00:36:43Bet he doesn't even know what brand the water is in the showroom.
00:36:49Don't mind them.
00:36:50I really don't know the brand.
00:36:51Not cheap, is it?
00:36:53Not cheap.
00:36:54$20 a bottle.
00:36:56I just don't get how rich people think.
00:36:58I tried one once.
00:37:00Tasted exactly the same as the $1 bottle from the supermarket.
00:37:04Rich people's money is easy to take.
00:37:10Close to schools, big children's room, space for her toys.
00:37:13It really is nice.
00:37:14This unit isn't cheap.
00:37:16I know.
00:37:17If you're just looking, I can walk you through it slowly.
00:37:20No need to force anything.
00:37:23I'm very satisfied with this place.
00:37:25Aaron, get the contract ready.
00:37:30Contract?
00:37:31Yes.
00:37:32I want to buy this unit.
00:37:37Even with installments, the down payment, taxes, and property fees add up to a huge amount.
00:37:43You don't have to push yourself beyond your means just to support my sales record.
00:37:48I just want Sophie to have a home.
00:37:50But are you really sure?
00:37:52This isn't a small amount.
00:37:54I think you should think it over.
00:37:57I'm sure.
00:37:58This is the one.
00:38:00That's touching.
00:38:01Let's see if you even have enough in your account when the contract's ready.
00:38:06Aaron, don't be fooled by him.
00:38:09Men like him love putting on a show in front of women.
00:38:12In the end, you'll be the one embarrassed.
00:38:17Pretty lady.
00:38:19Mason, what are you doing here?
00:38:21Looking at houses?
00:38:22You.
00:38:23So it's you.
00:38:24You're the one seducing my ex-husband?
00:38:26You're mistaken.
00:38:27I'm just a salesperson here.
00:38:29Don't play innocent.
00:38:30A saleswoman who latches onto a suddenly rich man?
00:38:33Isn't that just looking for a payday?
00:38:37Olivia, watch your mouth.
00:38:43Don't you dare touch her.
00:38:48If you have a problem, take it up with me.
00:38:50Don't take your anger out on innocent people.
00:38:53She's seducing you, and you're defending her?
00:38:56She's just doing her job.
00:38:57Mommy, the pretty lady didn't do anything to you.
00:39:01You said you wanted to buy a house.
00:39:02Perfect timing.
00:39:03We're here to buy one too.
00:39:04Sophie's growing up, and the old place isn't big enough.
00:39:07Don't think losing weight and winning some lottery money makes you somebody.
00:39:09Houses here cost millions, tens of millions.
00:39:11Can you afford it?
00:39:13He won the lottery?
00:39:14Yeah.
00:39:16Probably third or second prize.
00:39:18Maybe a few hundred thousand?
00:39:20Not even close to enough for a place here.
00:39:23I almost fell for it too.
00:39:24Thought some big shot walked in.
00:39:27My daddy is not a liar!
00:39:29If Mr. Mason really has money, why not buy our most expensive unit?
00:39:33That one's ten million.
00:39:35Not many people in Harbor City can afford it in cash.
00:39:37Forget it.
00:39:38Just leave.
00:39:39Don't get yourself in trouble over a few words.
00:39:42Do you have anything more expensive?
00:39:43There is.
00:39:44A large villa.
00:39:46Twenty million.
00:39:46But since it went on the market, no one has ever bought it.
00:39:49If I buy it, does the commission go to you?
00:39:50It would be mine.
00:39:52Good.
00:39:53I'll take the twenty million one.
00:39:54I want the twenty million dollar one.
00:40:03Twenty million, Mason?
00:40:05Do you even know how many zeros are in twenty million?
00:40:08Renting a car and changing clothes is one thing.
00:40:10Now you're trying to play billabier?
00:40:13Don't sell your organs just to save face.
00:40:15Your body isn't worth as much as you think.
00:40:18Oh, wait.
00:40:19Even if you sold everything, you still couldn't afford it.
00:40:22Daddy never lies.
00:40:25Twenty million isn't a small amount.
00:40:28Plenty of people make impulsive purchases because of a few insults,
00:40:32then end up crushed by down payments and monthly installments.
00:40:35I know what I'm doing.
00:40:37Then even more reason not to show off.
00:40:39I'm buying this house to give Sophie a home.
00:40:41She deserves the best.
00:40:43Even with installments, this penthouse will be hard to get approved.
00:40:47I'm not doing installments.
00:40:51I'm paying in full.
00:40:55Twenty million in full?
00:40:57Who do you think you are?
00:40:58The guy who won the five hundred million jackpot?
00:41:01Don't make me laugh.
00:41:06Impossible.
00:41:07How could he win the jackpot?
00:41:08He probably mortgaged that rented car underground.
00:41:10He can't even afford the down payment.
00:41:12What a joke.
00:41:14Mason, are you really sure?
00:41:16I've thought it through.
00:41:18Before, I couldn't even afford a toy for my daughter.
00:41:23Now I have the means.
00:41:25I don't want her to wait any longer.
00:41:28Daddy, I don't need the most expensive house.
00:41:31I just need you.
00:41:33Daddy wants to give it to you.
00:41:37Get the contract ready, but swipe the card.
00:41:41Go ahead, swipe it.
00:41:43Let's see if that card even beeps.
00:41:51Why isn't it beeping?
00:41:53Told you, no matter how good the act, a fake is still a fake.
00:41:57Sophie, see?
00:41:58Your father is lying again.
00:42:00No, Daddy wouldn't lie to me.
00:42:04A card he probably picked up off the street, and he's trying to buy a 20 million house?
00:42:08He used to be a fat slob crawling through sewers.
00:42:11Lose the weight and change the face, and the bones are still broke.
00:42:14Aaron, now you see?
00:42:16He's just using you.
00:42:17Because you're naive.
00:42:19Making a fool out of you.
00:42:22It's okay if you don't have the money.
00:42:23You don't have to actually spend 20 million just because of what they said.
00:42:28Wait a little longer.
00:42:30Mason.
00:42:31I told you, I'm giving Sophie a home.
00:42:33Daddy, can we just not buy it?
00:42:36Do you trust Daddy?
00:42:38Yes.
00:42:39Then trust me all the way.
00:42:40The room I promised you, I'm buying it today.
00:42:43Manager, someone's causing trouble with a fake card.
00:42:46He can't pay and he won't leave.
00:42:47Who's causing trouble in my sales office?
00:42:54Manager, it's him.
00:42:55No appointment, no budget.
00:42:56He spent the whole afternoon peroding around the showroom with that woman, and now he's waving a dead card pretending
00:43:02to be rich.
00:43:03He only won some small lottery prize.
00:43:07Give me the card.
00:43:12A 20 million transaction, and you used a standard terminer?
00:43:15This level of transaction requires a VIP terminer.
00:43:18Standard machines don't even have the clearance to read these cards.
00:43:22Just because you've never seen one doesn't mean they don't exist.
00:43:25I sold a 10 million property before I became manager.
00:43:28Bring the VIP transaction terminer.
00:43:31Mason, what exactly?
00:43:33Let's buy the house first.
00:43:34We can talk about the rest later.
00:43:36Mr. Brooks, you may try again.
00:43:42Even with a different machine, it's still useless.
00:43:44Mason, you've embarrassed yourself enough.
00:43:47Leave before you drag Sophie down with you.
00:43:49Manager, now can we please escort him out?
00:43:52Sir, if the payment still doesn't go through, it's...
00:43:55Payment successful.
00:43:56Amount charged 20 million dollars.
00:44:0220 million?
00:44:04Impossible.
00:44:05Is this machine broken?
00:44:06The VIP terminal is directly linked to the banking system.
00:44:09It does not malfunction.
00:44:10I knew Daddy wouldn't lie.
00:44:12The room Daddy promised you, it's yours now.
00:44:1520 million in full.
00:44:16And that saleswoman just said he couldn't afford it.
00:44:19Mr. Brooks, congratulations.
00:44:21You are now the owner of the Cloudtop Estate Penthouse.
00:44:24All future delivery, renovation, and property management
00:44:26will be handled by our highest level team.
00:44:29Let Aaron handle the paperwork.
00:44:31Of course, Aaron will be your dedicated consultant.
00:44:36So what if he bought one house?
00:44:37Who knows if that money is even his?
00:44:39Exactly.
00:44:39You couldn't even afford a meal before.
00:44:41Suddenly you have 20 million?
00:44:43Where did it come from?
00:44:44Does it matter where my money came from?
00:44:46Of course it matters.
00:44:48Sophie is my daughter.
00:44:49I can't let her be around someone with shady income.
00:44:52You want to know?
00:44:53How much did you actually win?
00:45:05How much did you actually win?
00:45:07Second prize?
00:45:08Third prize?
00:45:10Even if he got lucky, it's probably only a few hundred thousand.
00:45:14You spend 20 million on a house,
00:45:16but it's probably borrowed, loaned, or some rich woman's money.
00:45:20Suddenly thin, suddenly has a car, suddenly buys a house.
00:45:22Who knows who's behind it?
00:45:24Daddy, why do they keep not believing you?
00:45:28Because some people only believe what they want to believe.
00:45:31They'd rather think Daddy depends on someone else
00:45:34than accept that Daddy changed through his own effort.
00:45:37But Daddy really did it.
00:45:40Yes. Daddy did it.
00:45:42Don't give us that speech.
00:45:44If you've got the guts, tell everyone where your money came from.
00:45:48Can't say it, can you?
00:45:50I knew it. He's not a legitimate rich person.
00:45:53Didn't you just mention the lottery?
00:45:56What do you mean?
00:45:58You said there's no way the $500 million jackpot
00:46:00could fall on someone like me.
00:46:02Isn't that true?
00:46:04I used to think the same thing.
00:46:07That it was impossible.
00:46:10That $500 million jackpot winner you're all talking about?
00:46:15That's me.
00:46:16If you really won $500 million,
00:46:18it would be all over the news by now.
00:46:21Exactly.
00:46:21He's definitely sponging off some rich woman.
00:46:23Taking a woman's money to play big shot
00:46:25and then claiming he won the lottery?
00:46:27Pathetic.
00:46:28I don't need you to believe me.
00:46:29You don't want us to believe you because you're lying.
00:46:32Believe what you want.
00:46:32The money's already paid.
00:46:34The house is already mine.
00:46:36Daddy is not a liar.
00:46:40As long as you know the truth, that's enough.
00:46:43The $20 million transaction is confirmed.
00:46:45According to company policy,
00:46:47the commission, sales credit,
00:46:48and all follow-up services go to Aaron.
00:46:51Me?
00:46:53You were the one who assisted Mr. Brooks throughout.
00:46:55You completed the purchase process.
00:46:57Why should she get it?
00:46:58I was the first one to receive him.
00:47:00You left him standing at the model?
00:47:02I was busy with real customers.
00:47:07Then tell me,
00:47:08what exactly did you do when you received Mr. Brooks?
00:47:11Did you show him the unit?
00:47:13Did you prepare the contract?
00:47:14Or did you complete the $20 million transaction?
00:47:17But I didn't know he was this rich.
00:47:19That's exactly the problem.
00:47:21This commission belongs to Aaron.
00:47:24Aaron hasn't sold a single unit.
00:47:27Why should she get the commission?
00:47:29On a $20 million sale?
00:47:31She just got lucky running into Mason.
00:47:34I never tried to take credit from you.
00:47:36Don't play innocent.
00:47:37You used your connection with Mason to steal my client.
00:47:39Enough!
00:47:40Mr. Brooks is not your client.
00:47:42He's the client you gave up.
00:47:44Serves her right.
00:47:45The commission on $20 million alone is huge.
00:47:47Aaron took him as a normal client.
00:47:49You judged him by appearances.
00:47:51Cloudtop Estate doesn't need salespeople like you.
00:47:56Mr. Brooks, I was blind earlier.
00:47:59Please put in a word for me with the manager.
00:48:01I swear I'll never do it again.
00:48:03You brought this on yourself.
00:48:06Blair, go to HR and process your termination.
00:48:12I won't be fired after all.
00:48:14You earned it.
00:48:16Mr. Brooks, the property is ready for delivery.
00:48:18Whenever you'd like to discuss renovation or furnishing, please contact us.
00:48:25Is this the key to my new home?
00:48:27Yes.
00:48:28Do you want to see your room?
00:48:32Yes, I want to see it right now.
00:48:35Let's go, sweetheart.
00:48:36Daddy's taking you home.
00:48:37The penthouse has a dedicated butler service already arranged.
00:48:40I'll go with you.
00:48:41The pretty lady can come too.
00:48:43Okay.
00:48:44Mr. Brooks, welcome as the most distinguished owner of Cloudtop Estate.
00:48:48Whatever you need, renovation, furniture, or children's room setup,
00:48:52Erlin will arrange it all.
00:48:54Daddy, can my room really fit a dollhouse?
00:48:57Whatever you love, Daddy will put it in there.
00:49:02Everyone, see Mr. Brooks off.
00:49:05Congratulations, Mr. Brooks, on becoming the distinguished owner of Cloudtop Estate.
00:49:14You two were also here to view properties, correct?
00:49:16Have you found a unit you like?
00:49:19We're just looking.
00:49:20No problem.
00:49:21We have standard units and special offer units available.
00:49:25We'll come back another day.
00:49:34Daddy, is this really going to be my home?
00:49:38Always.
00:49:40Daddy, come quick.
00:49:41My room is so much bigger than before.
00:49:44Tonight, we'll set up your room.
00:49:46I can decorate it however I want.
00:49:49It's your room.
00:49:50You call the shots.
00:49:52This one lives on the first floor.
00:49:55This one on the second.
00:49:56Where does Daddy live?
00:49:58Daddy lives here, closest to me.
00:50:03I helped pick the furniture.
00:50:05You two hang the pictures yourselves.
00:50:07I won't interrupt.
00:50:09Thanks for everything today.
00:50:11No need.
00:50:11As long as Sophie likes it.
00:50:13Hang it here so I can see it when I wake up.
00:50:19Daddy, can I really sleep here tonight?
00:50:21Of course.
00:50:22Will Mommy be mad?
00:50:26Daddy will talk to her.
00:50:27You just get a good night's sleep.
00:50:31Seen enough?
00:50:32Take the kid and let's go.
00:50:34She hasn't been this happy in a long time.
00:50:37So she gets excited about a new house?
00:50:39Big deal.
00:50:45Sophie wants to stay here tonight.
00:50:47I'll bring her back tomorrow.
00:50:48Mason.
00:50:50We need to talk.
00:50:53What do you want to talk about?
00:50:55Do you still hate me?
00:50:57What do you think?
00:51:02These three years haven't been easy for me either.
00:51:04Sophie needed school, needed a life.
00:51:06I had to handle everything alone.
00:51:08So you're saying you got together with Derek for Sophie's sake?
00:51:13You weren't afraid Sophie would suffer.
00:51:15You were afraid of suffering with me.
00:51:22Back then, you were fat and broke, crawling through sewers every day.
00:51:26You couldn't even take care of yourself.
00:51:29So the moment I went to prison, you couldn't even wait?
00:51:31I didn't mean to give up on you.
00:51:32I just made a mistake.
00:51:34But now you've changed.
00:51:35We could start over.
00:51:36Sophie needs a complete family.
00:51:40You don't regret betraying me.
00:51:42You just regret not choosing the one who would win the jackpot.
00:51:46Mason, I really know I was wrong.
00:51:48Knowing you were wrong doesn't mean I have to forgive you.
00:51:50I bought this house so Sophie could have a home, not to give you a second chance.
00:51:54But I'm her mother.
00:51:55You will always be her mother.
00:51:56But you are no longer my wife.
00:52:06Olivia, you'd better remember whose side you're on.
00:52:16What were you talking to Mason about last night?
00:52:19I just wanted to discuss Sophie.
00:52:22Discuss Sophie or discuss going back to Mason?
00:52:25Don't be ridiculous.
00:52:26He's got 500 million.
00:52:28A mansion, a sports car.
00:52:30You dare tell me you haven't thought about it once?
00:52:36Mason isn't the same person anymore.
00:52:38He's lost weight, he has money, and Sophie would rather be with him.
00:52:41You think because he's changed, he'll take you back?
00:52:44At least he wouldn't make Sophie suffer now.
00:52:46Are you worried about Sophie or about yourself?
00:52:49Mason has money.
00:52:51And Aaron isn't some innocent bystander.
00:52:54If Sophie goes to Mason's side, Aaron will eventually sweet-talk her way into his fortune.
00:52:59Aaron isn't as bad as you say.
00:53:01What do you know?
00:53:02We have to keep Sophie with us.
00:53:04As long as the kid is in our hands, Mason has to pay.
00:53:11Uncle Derek?
00:53:13Are you trying to use me to get money from Daddy?
00:53:19Who said you could eavesdrop on adults?
00:53:23Sophie, don't listen to him.
00:53:26You said you loved me.
00:53:28Weren't you supposed to love me?
00:53:31Kids shouldn't ask so many questions.
00:53:33Go to your room.
00:53:35Mommy, he's hurting me!
00:53:41Mommy, was what Uncle Derek said last night true?
00:53:45What?
00:53:46He said as long as the kid is in your hands, Daddy has to pay.
00:53:50Sophie, adult matters are complicated.
00:53:53Don't overthink it.
00:53:54Are you trying to trade me for money?
00:53:56Of course not.
00:53:58Don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask.
00:54:02Give me back my backpack!
00:54:03Your daddy buys you a house, and suddenly you don't know who raised you for three years?
00:54:06That's not true!
00:54:10Daddy, I don't want to go back to that house.
00:54:14Sophie, Daddy is coming to get you right now.
00:54:16But what if Mommy won't let me?
00:54:19Daddy won't fight with them anymore.
00:54:20Daddy will use legal means to bring you to where you really want to be.
00:54:27Hello?
00:54:28I'd like to apply for fixed visitation and joint custody.
00:54:30My daughter no longer wants to return to her mother's current home.
00:54:33Mr. Brooks, you'll need to prepare evidence of the child's wishes and her actual living situation.
00:54:36I will.
00:54:37This time, I won't let anyone make decisions for me.
00:54:48Sophie, wait for Daddy.
00:54:51Mr. Brooks, you can apply for fixed visitation, joint custody, and if necessary, a temporary residence arrangement.
00:54:59So now you have money, you want to take my daughter away?
00:55:02I'm not taking her.
00:55:03I just want her to have somewhere to go when she's scared.
00:55:07Sophie, would you like to tell us how you feel?
00:55:11I want to live with Daddy because Daddy never calls me a bargaining chip.
00:55:15You misspelled because. It needs an extra letter.
00:55:18You don't have to make it perfect.
00:55:20I want the teacher and the lawyer to understand it clearly.
00:55:24Erin, thank you.
00:55:26I didn't do much.
00:55:28These are her own words.
00:55:30She should be the one to say them.
00:55:35I never called her that.
00:55:36Kids don't know anything.
00:55:38Mason coached her to write it.
00:55:40Mason would never coach her to say something like that.
00:55:43This is my little castle.
00:55:46She really doesn't want to come back.
00:55:51Whether she wants to doesn't matter.
00:55:57Mr. Derrick, your car loan is two months overdue, and your mortgage is past due as well.
00:56:02I'll deal with it tomorrow.
00:56:02You said the same thing last week.
00:56:04If you don't pay up, we'll repossess the vehicle.
00:56:10Mr. Derrick, the interest on that loan you took out is due today.
00:56:13Just give me a few more days.
00:56:14You're not in a position to negotiate with us.
00:56:17Mason won $500 million, and I'm the one being crushed by debt?
00:56:23Go to Mason today and bring Sophie back.
00:56:26Sophie doesn't want to come back.
00:56:28Then coax her.
00:56:29You're her mother.
00:56:31Mason already hired a lawyer.
00:56:33Perfect.
00:56:34Tell him if he ever wants to see his daughter, he'll pay us back for the past three years.
00:56:38Do you actually want Sophie, or do you just want Mason's money?
00:56:42What's the difference?
00:56:43As long as Sophie is with us, Mason has to do what we say.
00:56:46That's not what you used to say.
00:56:48Before, Mason was a broke, fat loser with nothing to squeeze out of him.
00:56:53But now it's different.
00:56:54His money should have been ours all along.
00:56:57If talking won't work, then we'll make Mason hand over the money on his own.
00:57:06Three years of child-rearing expenses, $1 million.
00:57:11$1 million.
00:57:14Sophie's schooling, food, medical care, none of it was free.
00:57:17Without us, she wouldn't be where she is today.
00:57:20Trip to Europe, $30,000.
00:57:22Luxury handbag, $28,000.
00:57:24Fine dining membership, $15,000.
00:57:26Sports car down payment, $120,000.
00:57:29Those were household expenses.
00:57:31When exactly did Sophie start driving a sports car?
00:57:34When the adults live well, the child lives well.
00:57:38If Olivia and I have a decent life, Sophie won't be looked down on.
00:57:43So you used her name to buy yourselves bags, cars, and vacations.
00:57:47Mason, I really did spend on Sophie.
00:57:50You spent, sure.
00:57:51But that doesn't mean you can turn her into a receipt.
00:57:55Pay up, and we won't stop you from seeing Sophie.
00:57:58Refuse, and don't blame us for doing things by the book.
00:58:03Fine.
00:58:05You agree?
00:58:06Let's settle this account.
00:58:08Slowly.
00:58:13How much do they want?
00:58:15They want to turn Sophie into money.
00:58:20Told you, no matter how rich he is, he can't give up his daughter.
00:58:26Let's settle this today.
00:58:27Sophie's tuition, $8,000.
00:58:29That I'll accept.
00:58:30Her health insurance, $1,200.
00:58:32That I'll accept too.
00:58:36But this bag, this car, this trip to Europe, what do they have to do with Sophie?
00:58:40If I live well, I have more energy to take care of her.
00:58:44How you live is your choice.
00:58:45Don't use Sophie to pay for your desires.
00:58:47Mason, don't act so righteous.
00:58:49If it weren't for me these past three years, Olivia and Sophie would have been on the street.
00:58:53So you slept with my wife, and now you want to use my daughter to bill me for your lifestyle?
00:58:59I never meant to force you.
00:59:01Then why did you come to me with this list?
00:59:06Because if you don't pay, we won't let you see Sophie.
00:59:09Custody is in Olivia's hands.
00:59:11What are you going to do about it, rich boy?
00:59:12Say that again.
00:59:13Unless you pay $1 million, you'll never see her again.
00:59:16So it's true?
00:59:17You really are trying to get money from Daddy because of me?
00:59:24Sophie, let Mommy explain.
00:59:29I heard everything.
00:59:37Uncle Derek, did you take care of me because you liked me?
00:59:42Or because you wanted to use me to get money from Daddy?
00:59:45Sophie, don't listen to Mason's nonsense.
00:59:47I heard it myself.
00:59:49Baby, that's not what Mommy meant.
00:59:52You knew he wanted to trade me for money.
00:59:54Why didn't you stop him?
00:59:56Mommy was just scared we'd have no money.
00:59:59Scared you wouldn't have a good life.
01:00:01But all I ever wanted was Daddy.
01:00:08I don't want a big house.
01:00:09I don't want trips to Europe.
01:00:11Daddy, I just don't want to hear you say Daddy is fat, poor, dirty, and embarrassing anymore.
01:00:17Enough!
01:00:17What does a kid know?
01:00:19Come home with me.
01:00:23Don't touch her.
01:00:27I raised her for three years.
01:00:28You raised a bargaining cub you could cash in against me.
01:00:32I am not your money.
01:00:33And I am not your bargaining chip.
01:00:36Mommy, if you really love me, stop pushing me toward him.
01:00:42Daddy, I want to go home.
01:00:44Okay, sweetheart.
01:00:45Daddy's taking you home.
01:00:48You dare take her today, and you'll face the consequences.
01:00:52I've already shouldered three years of consequences.
01:00:54I'm not afraid to shoulder more.
01:00:56Stop right there.
01:00:58She called me Daddy for three years.
01:01:01I am her father.
01:01:03Just because she called you that doesn't mean you deserved it.
01:01:06I bought her clothes, paid her tuition, took her to school.
01:01:09What did you ever do?
01:01:12You did all that to make her dependent on you.
01:01:15And what about you?
01:01:16You're buying her a house?
01:01:18Buying her toys?
01:01:19How is that any different?
01:01:21When she was sick?
01:01:22When she was wronged?
01:01:24When people called her Daddy a loser?
01:01:26Did you ever ask who she wanted to see?
01:01:28I called you Daddy before because Mommy told me to.
01:01:35But today you said I was just something to trade for money.
01:01:39I don't want to call you Daddy anymore.
01:01:43I only have one Daddy.
01:01:45Sophie!
01:01:46Mommy didn't abandon you!
01:01:51But you never believed in Daddy.
01:01:54You always believed Uncle Derek more than you believed me.
01:02:07Based on Sophie's clearly expressed wishes
01:02:09and the current family arraignment has been granted,
01:02:11the Sophie may temporarily reside with Mason.
01:02:13Olivia retains visiting rights.
01:02:15Mr. Derek, pending further assessment,
01:02:17you are not permitted to have unsupervised contact with Sophie.
01:02:23Mason, so now you have money?
01:02:24You hire lawyers and buy houses
01:02:26just to take my daughter away?
01:02:28I'm her mother!
01:02:29That's why you still have visitation.
01:02:31But you need to learn how to be a real mother to her first.
01:02:34You can't do this to me.
01:02:35I raised her for three years.
01:02:37You are not Sophie's legal guardian.
01:02:41You planned this all along, didn't you?
01:02:43This is the result of your own choices.
01:02:52Daddy, can I really live here from now on?
01:02:56This has always been your home.
01:03:06My little castle, I'm back!
01:03:15Mason, you took what's mine.
01:03:16I'll make you pay it back double.
01:03:21Car loan, mortgage, that personal loan?
01:03:23How much do you actually owe?
01:03:24Shut up.
01:03:25As long as Mason coughs up a little,
01:03:27every debt gets paid.
01:03:28Sophie is already not with us.
01:03:30How are you going to force him?
01:03:31Sophie's not here,
01:03:32but that doesn't mean I can't make him pay.
01:03:36I didn't want to bring this up.
01:03:38But now Mason has money.
01:03:40And he's taken the child away from Olivia.
01:03:42Mason just got out of prison, right?
01:03:43How did he suddenly get rich?
01:03:47He won the lottery.
01:03:48But since he came into money,
01:03:50he won't even acknowledge the people
01:03:51who took care of his family while he was gone.
01:03:55When Mason got into trouble,
01:03:57I was the one holding his family together.
01:03:59I never wanted anything from him.
01:04:02I just think a man shouldn't forget his roots
01:04:04the moment he gets rich.
01:04:06Then let's call him and talk it out.
01:04:09Forget it.
01:04:10He's a different person now.
01:04:13He probably won't even show up
01:04:14to see old classmates like us.
01:04:21Derek's organizing a class reunion.
01:04:23He says he wants to clear things up with you.
01:04:25He's suddenly that generous?
01:04:27He's already painted himself as the victim.
01:04:31He wants to force me to bow my head in public.
01:04:34You don't have to go.
01:04:37Before, I didn't go because I was afraid of losing face.
01:04:43A class reunion? I'll be there.
01:04:46You've lost so much weight,
01:04:47I almost didn't recognize you.
01:04:49But you remember the accident three years ago?
01:04:50I remember.
01:04:51I've never been able to forget it.
01:04:52What really happened that day?
01:04:54You always knew.
01:04:55You just refused to believe Derek was the one who set you up.
01:04:58When that batch of pipes arrived at the site,
01:05:00you spotted the problem immediately.
01:05:01You said the material was substandard
01:05:03and we had to stop work.
01:05:04Derek said the company was just starting out
01:05:05and stopping would bankrupt us.
01:05:06He said use them first, deal with it later.
01:05:08After the accident,
01:05:09he told us all to say you were in charge of inspection
01:05:11and you signed off on them.
01:05:18That batch of defective pipes,
01:05:19he signed for him personally.
01:05:22Why are you only showing me this now?
01:05:24Back then I had a family.
01:05:26I was afraid of what he'd do.
01:05:28The original documents,
01:05:30supply records and Hank's testimony
01:05:31are enough to request the case be reopened.
01:05:33I don't need him to apologize to me.
01:05:35Then what is your goal?
01:05:35I want the person who actually did wrong
01:05:37to bear the consequences.
01:05:38I'll submit this to the police.
01:05:43Do you want me to go in with you tomorrow?
01:05:46No need to speak for me.
01:05:48Tomorrow I'll only say what needs to be said.
01:05:50The words I couldn't say three years ago,
01:05:52it's time to say them.
01:05:56Mason hasn't had it easy these past few years,
01:05:58I know that.
01:06:00But Olivia and Sophie haven't either.
01:06:04After Mason got into trouble,
01:06:06we were the ones keeping that family together.
01:06:08Didn't Mason go to prison?
01:06:11Yeah.
01:06:12And we never held it against him.
01:06:14But now that he's come into money,
01:06:16he's taken Sophie away.
01:06:17No matter what,
01:06:18you can't just take the child.
01:06:19Derek was so loyal to Mason.
01:06:21How could Mason turn on him like this?
01:06:24I don't want him to repay me anything.
01:06:27I just want him to remember
01:06:28who didn't abandon him at his lowest.
01:06:31Derek, stop.
01:06:33What?
01:06:33Am I wrong?
01:06:38Is that...
01:06:39Mason?
01:06:41You've lost so much weight?
01:06:44How did he turn into this?
01:06:46Mason, you finally made it.
01:06:51Go on.
01:06:52Keep talking.
01:06:54Tell everyone how you took care of my wife
01:06:57and daughter these past three years.
01:07:03Mason, let's not dwell on the past.
01:07:07I just want to ask you one thing.
01:07:09For three years,
01:07:10wasn't I the one supporting Olivia and Sophie?
01:07:13What do you want me to say?
01:07:15Simple.
01:07:16You now have 500 million.
01:07:18At the very least,
01:07:19you should set aside something for Sophie.
01:07:22Don't let the kid end up with nothing
01:07:23after living in a mansion today
01:07:25and on the street tomorrow.
01:07:26Sophie's education fund,
01:07:28medical insurance,
01:07:29and living expenses after she's grown.
01:07:31I've already arranged all of it.
01:07:33She doesn't lack security.
01:07:34What she lacks
01:07:35is someone who won't treat her
01:07:37like a bargaining chip.
01:07:38Bargaining chip?
01:07:40Mason,
01:07:41don't bring your personal grudges here.
01:07:43I'm just reminding you
01:07:44that winning the lottery isn't a skill.
01:07:46You just got lucky.
01:07:48Everyone here knows what you used to be.
01:07:51You think losing weight
01:07:52and putting on a suit
01:07:53washes away your past?
01:07:54Derek, that's enough.
01:07:55Am I wrong?
01:07:56He went to prison.
01:07:57That's a fact.
01:08:00You're right.
01:08:01I went to prison.
01:08:02I signed the confession.
01:08:03I admitted guilt.
01:08:04I served three years.
01:08:07But do you dare tell them
01:08:08whose idea that confession was
01:08:10and who begged me to sign it?
01:08:13He's making up stories.
01:08:15Whether it's a story or not,
01:08:16you'll find out soon.
01:08:20Everyone's here.
01:08:21Let's finally talk about
01:08:22what happened three years ago.
01:08:24Three years ago,
01:08:25who was in charge of inspection, Mason?
01:08:27Who signed the report, Mason?
01:08:29Who confessed negligence in court, Mason?
01:08:31You tell me.
01:08:32If a man did nothing wrong,
01:08:34why would he confess?
01:08:35That does seem strange.
01:08:37Mason,
01:08:37why did you confess back then?
01:08:39Because I trusted him.
01:08:40Trusted me to do what?
01:08:42The night of the accident,
01:08:44you grabbed me and said
01:08:45the company was just starting out
01:08:47and workers were waiting
01:08:48to get paid.
01:08:50You said you couldn't go inside.
01:08:52You said I had skills
01:08:53and could still find work
01:08:55after I got out.
01:08:56You promised to take care
01:08:58of Olivia and Sophie for me.
01:08:59I was just comforting you.
01:09:01You screwed up.
01:09:02You chose to confess.
01:09:03Don't pin it on me.
01:09:04I did sign.
01:09:05But before I signed,
01:09:07I asked you why those pipes
01:09:08were different
01:09:09from the original ones.
01:09:11You're lying.
01:09:13Pipes?
01:09:13Don't listen to him.
01:09:14You told me the material was fine.
01:09:16You told me to keep working.
01:09:19After the accident,
01:09:20you told me that
01:09:21if I just went inside
01:09:22for three years,
01:09:24everything would go back to normal.
01:09:26And what did you actually do?
01:09:28Of course,
01:09:28you won't believe me alone.
01:09:31But someone who worked with me
01:09:32back then is here too.
01:09:34What are you doing here?
01:09:35I could ask you the same thing.
01:09:38Three years ago,
01:09:39he went inside for you.
01:09:40And you've been living
01:09:41pretty well since.
01:09:44When that batch of pipes
01:09:45arrived at the site,
01:09:46Mason spotted the problem
01:09:47in order to stop.
01:09:48He said they were too thin
01:09:50and would never hold up
01:09:50under underground pressure.
01:09:51A sewer cleaner,
01:09:52what does he know about materials?
01:09:53He knows enough.
01:09:55If he hadn't pulled people out that day,
01:09:57more workers would have been hurt.
01:09:58How much did he pay you?
01:10:01Mason has $500 million now.
01:10:03Buying a witness is nothing to him.
01:10:06I didn't take a cent from him.
01:10:08You told me to keep my mouth shut.
01:10:10You said if I cooperated,
01:10:11you'd promote me.
01:10:12When I refused,
01:10:13you fired me.
01:10:17You wanted evidence?
01:10:19The original delivery receipt
01:10:20for that defective batch,
01:10:22I've kept it all these years.
01:10:23Impossible.
01:10:24You signed it
01:10:25and threw away the duplicate.
01:10:27I picked it up.
01:10:32It really is his signature.
01:10:37Easy.
01:10:39This is only the beginning.
01:10:43This batch of defective pipes,
01:10:45you signed for them.
01:10:46Signing for them
01:10:47doesn't mean I switched them.
01:10:49Then tell everyone.
01:10:51Why were the original qualified pipes
01:10:53replaced with this cheap batch?
01:10:55I don't know.
01:10:55Of course you know.
01:10:57You were the one who told me
01:10:58to send the original materials back.
01:11:00I was just trying to keep the company alive.
01:11:02We were short on funds.
01:11:03What's wrong with using
01:11:04slightly cheaper materials?
01:11:09So,
01:11:11it really was you.
01:11:13Olivia,
01:11:14I did it for our future.
01:11:16You gambled with people's lives
01:11:18for your future?
01:11:20After the accident,
01:11:21you didn't say a single word of apology.
01:11:23You just knelt there begging me,
01:11:25saying you couldn't go to prison.
01:11:27I trusted you.
01:11:28I gave you three years.
01:11:30And you stole my home,
01:11:31stole my daughter,
01:11:32and tried to use her
01:11:33to extort more money from me.
01:11:34That's because you were stupid.
01:11:37You're right.
01:11:38I was stupid.
01:11:39Friend.
01:11:40Stupid enough to call you a friend.
01:11:42But now I understand.
01:11:44A friend doesn't push you into prison
01:11:46and then climb over your ruined life.
01:11:51You're all being fooled by him.
01:11:53He's rich.
01:11:53He can afford lawyers.
01:11:55He just wants to destroy me.
01:11:58It's time you took responsibility
01:11:59for what you did, Derek.
01:12:05Mr. Derek,
01:12:06we have received new evidence
01:12:07regarding the underground pipeline accident
01:12:09three years ago.
01:12:10Please cooperate with the investigation.
01:12:12All you have is a scrap of paper
01:12:15and the word of some old worker.
01:12:17The original delivery receipt,
01:12:19supply records,
01:12:20and witness testimony
01:12:21have all been verified.
01:12:22It's him.
01:12:23He got rich and now he wants revenge.
01:12:25Whether it's revenge
01:12:25will be determined by the investigation.
01:12:27But you are suspected
01:12:29of purchasing substandard materials,
01:12:32covering up the cause of the accident,
01:12:35and inducing another person
01:12:36to take responsibility.
01:12:38I didn't.
01:12:39I just asked him to help me out once.
01:12:41Mason, we've known each other for years.
01:12:44Are you really going to ruin me
01:12:45over something that happened three years ago?
01:12:47Three years.
01:12:49To you, it's just something that happened.
01:12:52To me, it was losing my daughter's birthdays,
01:12:54losing the chance to see my father,
01:12:56losing everything.
01:12:58When you destroyed me,
01:12:59did you think about how long
01:13:00we'd known each other?
01:13:06Say something for me.
01:13:07You took the fall for me once.
01:13:09Help me again.
01:13:13Taking the fall for you back then
01:13:14was my stupidity.
01:13:16This time,
01:13:17no one is taking your place.
01:13:27I didn't hurt anyone.
01:13:30I just wanted to keep the company alive.
01:13:32The investigation will determine
01:13:34the full picture.
01:13:36You have 500 million.
01:13:38Isn't that enough?
01:13:39Why do you have to destroy me?
01:13:42You knew this day would come.
01:13:44You're part of this too.
01:13:45You knew Mason was taking the fall.
01:13:48I...
01:13:48Don't act all innocent now.
01:13:52I was going.
01:13:56He's right.
01:13:58I knew.
01:13:59I just didn't want to face it.
01:14:01Mason, help me one more time.
01:14:06The person you should be asking isn't me.
01:14:08It's the workers you sent to the hospital
01:14:10three years ago.
01:14:11It's the people whose lives you ruined.
01:14:14They won't forgive you.
01:14:16And neither will I.
01:14:29Mason, I'm sorry.
01:14:32Mason, wait.
01:14:34What?
01:14:37Sophie.
01:14:38I used to tell myself I left you for Sophie.
01:14:41But today I finally have the courage to admit it.
01:14:43I left because I was ashamed of you.
01:14:47Ashamed of your weight, your poverty, the smell of sewers on your clothes.
01:14:53I thought Derek could give me the life I wanted.
01:14:55I thought choosing him meant I'd never have to struggle again.
01:14:59I was wrong.
01:15:00Wanting a better life isn't a sin.
01:15:03What was wrong was trading my trust to get it.
01:15:05I know.
01:15:07Is there any chance for us?
01:15:09No.
01:15:11Mason.
01:15:13Sophie needs a mother.
01:15:15If you're willing to change, she'll need you too.
01:15:18But I will never need you as my wife again.
01:15:25Daddy, you're home.
01:15:28Is Uncle Derek not coming back anymore?
01:15:31No.
01:15:32He won't be coming back.
01:15:33Then let's go home.
01:15:35Okay.
01:15:35Let's go home.
01:15:36Derek has pleaded guilty to charges including illegal use of substandard pipes and concealing the cause of the accident.
01:15:42He will serve his sentence according to law.
01:15:48Daddy, I want extra jam on my toast.
01:15:51Got it, princess.
01:15:52I used to worry you'd never make it through alone.
01:15:55You don't have to worry anymore.
01:15:58I brought this for you.
01:16:01Thank you, mommy.
01:16:04From now on, mommy will ask what you want first.
01:16:07Okay.
01:16:11Last time was a housewarming gift.
01:16:12This time, consider it a celebration.
01:16:15Pretty lady.
01:16:16Want to go to the amusement park this weekend?
01:16:18Daddy, you come too.
01:16:20Together.
01:16:27Daddy, are we never going to be apart again?
01:16:34No.
01:16:35Never again.
01:16:37Before, daddy couldn't come home.
01:16:39But from today on, daddy will always be here.
01:16:42Daddy's home.
01:16:44Daddy's home.
01:16:44Ha ha ha ha.
01:16:45Ha ha ha.
01:16:45Ha ha ha ha ha.
