00:00:00Happy birthday
00:00:11Happy birthday Lucas
00:00:15Empty-handed on your brother's birthday classy Ethan
00:00:21God only knows where all your allowance goes
00:00:24It's fine mom
00:00:26Come on Ethan a toast
00:00:42Sure
00:00:46Lucas Lucas what's wrong?
00:00:49The wine
00:00:51What's wrong with the wine is it poisoned?
00:00:55Ethan
00:00:56You poisoned Lucas?
00:00:58No I didn't
00:01:09Then what the hell is this?
00:01:15No Lucas told me to
00:01:17Lucas is your brother
00:01:18How can you be so sickeningly vicious?
00:01:23We saved you from the gutter and brought home a monster
00:01:27No listen to me
00:01:31Drop the act I told you to stop
00:01:34Stop
00:01:36Lucas get Lucas to the hospital
00:01:38Right
00:01:48It hurt her
00:01:48Hey Ethan
00:01:50Remember to spray the garden for bugs tomorrow
00:01:54Sure
00:02:08It was you
00:02:09It was you
00:02:10It was you
00:02:32You're an utter disgrace
00:02:34You're an utter disgrace
00:02:35Stealing your sister's underwear?
00:02:37Have you no shame at all?
00:02:41Lucas is the same age as you
00:02:43He's helping run the company
00:02:44And look at you
00:02:45You're a complete disaster
00:02:47Wait, I'm dead
00:02:50Aren't I?
00:02:51Dad
00:02:52Don't blame Ethan
00:02:53He grew up in the slums
00:02:56He grew up in the slums
00:02:56Old habits die hard
00:02:57Give him time
00:03:00Give him time?
00:03:01He stole money, jewelry, now sister's panties?
00:03:04Slum trash is just disgusting
00:03:10Ethan, we brought you home and gave you everything
00:03:14Why would you do this?
00:03:19Wait
00:03:20This is
00:03:21Ten years ago
00:03:22It wasn't me
00:03:24I didn't do it
00:03:28What the hell are you laughing at?
00:03:35I said on your knees
00:03:38Where's the evidence?
00:03:40You accused me of stealing her clothes?
00:03:42Got any proof?
00:03:43Like Lucas would lie?
00:03:44Please, Ethan
00:03:45Who else in this house could be that twisted but you?
00:03:49In my last life
00:03:50I bled myself dry for this family
00:03:51Only to die like a dog
00:03:53Never again
00:03:55How dare you talk back?
00:03:57On your knees
00:03:59Not
00:04:00A chance
00:04:10I'm your father
00:04:12You ungrateful bastard
00:04:13One word
00:04:14One word from your precious Lucas
00:04:16And I'm guilty?
00:04:18What a loving family
00:04:20Don't say that, Ethan
00:04:22You're mom and dad's biological son
00:04:24I'm just an adopted nobody
00:04:26I didn't raise you this way
00:04:28Lucas is such an angel
00:04:30Does his kindness mean nothing to you?
00:04:33Why are you so jealous?
00:04:34Lucas?
00:04:35Lucas has been here for us for 17 years
00:04:37He is my only brother, not you
00:04:40Get the fuck back to your room
00:04:41No food, no water
00:04:43Not until Lucas forgives you
00:04:45Dad, please don't
00:04:47I stole Ethan's life
00:04:48And your love
00:04:49I'm the problem here
00:04:51Sweetie, no
00:04:52You are both my sons
00:04:53I love you both equally
00:04:55Always
00:04:55Happy now?
00:04:56You're tearing this family apart
00:04:59Apologize
00:04:59Or I swear to god
00:05:00I'll disown you
00:05:02Relax
00:05:04I was gonna leave this toxic dump anyway
00:05:07What did you just say?
00:05:20I said
00:05:21You can keep your damn family
00:05:22I'm done
00:05:31You out of your mind?
00:05:33A piece of paper doesn't change the blood in your veins
00:05:35Ethan, stop
00:05:38Mom gave you life
00:05:39How can you be so cruel?
00:05:41Ethan!
00:05:42Dad's just venting
00:05:43Stop playing the fedific victim with your calculated manipulation
00:05:49Ethan, why must you make everything so difficult?
00:05:53We're your parents
00:05:54We raised you
00:05:55You raised me?
00:05:56I grew up in foster care
00:05:58Working odd jobs since I was 10
00:05:59Did you ever spend a dime on me?
00:06:01Are you blaming me?
00:06:03I am your mother
00:06:04I've lived with the guilt of losing you for 18 years
00:06:07So you adopted Lucas
00:06:08Gave him everything
00:06:09And hid me like some filthy secret?
00:06:11Did that make you feel better?
00:06:13So it's just envy
00:06:14Come on
00:06:15A leech like you would never leave a rich family like ours
00:06:20What's so special about this pathetic family?
00:06:22You think anyone gives a damn?
00:06:23Why you-
00:06:23Your turn, Mr. Hawthorne
00:06:25What did you call me?
00:06:28You ungrateful bastard
00:06:29I'll beat the shit out of you
00:06:36You wanna hit me?
00:06:37Go ahead
00:06:38If I'm going down
00:06:39I'm dragging you all to hell with me
00:06:46Lucas
00:06:47Lucas, are you alright?
00:06:49Have you lost your damn mind?
00:06:50Don't thank me
00:06:51That pervert deserves it
00:06:53Mom, don't blame him
00:06:54As long as he feels better
00:06:55I can take it
00:06:58Ethan
00:06:59What is wrong with you?
00:07:01Lucas is your brother
00:07:02How could you do this?
00:07:04Why must you destroy this family over your petty jealousy?
00:07:07What?
00:07:08Not used to me fighting back?
00:07:10Broke your little heart?
00:07:10Can't take it already?
00:07:11Hawthorns!
00:07:15Oh god
00:07:17Where did you get all those?
00:07:19Save your fake tears, Mrs. Hawthorne
00:07:21You were right there every time I got beaten
00:07:23Don't play dumb now
00:07:26No, Ethan
00:07:27I-
00:07:30I'm sorry, brother
00:07:33It's all my fault
00:07:34I'll leave
00:07:34I'll pack my things right now
00:07:36Don't wait, don't wait, sir
00:07:37No, Lucas
00:07:38You can't just leave me
00:07:40You're all I've got
00:07:41Oh, come on
00:07:42You got hit because you stole
00:07:44You asked for it
00:07:47Ever since you came back
00:07:50This family's been a complete mess
00:07:52You want out?
00:07:54Great!
00:08:01Now get the hell out of my house!
00:08:09Much obliged
00:08:10Send me the bill for the last four years
00:08:12I'll pay it
00:08:12We can stop pretending we're family
00:08:22Ungrateful brat
00:08:23Who does he think he is?
00:08:25Cutting ties with us?
00:08:27After everything we've done for him?
00:08:30He's just jealous of Lucas
00:08:32When he's starving out there
00:08:34He'll come crawling back
00:08:36Hmph
00:08:37The second he walks in
00:08:38I'll break his legs
00:08:41Ethan's always been an up-over
00:08:43Where did he get the guts now?
00:08:45Dad, don't blame Ethan
00:08:46It's my fault
00:08:48I shouldn't have told the truth
00:08:49And gotten him punished
00:08:51Honey, you did the right thing
00:08:53Your brother, he's just
00:08:56That ungrateful beast
00:08:58He wants to sever ties?
00:08:59Fine, I'll fulfill his wish
00:09:00Robert!
00:09:02Sir
00:09:04Tally up everything he's cost us
00:09:06Let's see how Mr. High and Melly pays me back
00:09:08Right away, sir
00:09:19Come in, Ethan
00:09:20Come in
00:09:20Make yourself at home
00:09:23Sorry about the mess
00:09:24I'll clear a space
00:09:26Let me help
00:09:26You're doing me a huge favor
00:09:28I'm in no position to complain
00:09:31Are you kidding?
00:09:32You saved my ass back then
00:09:37Don't worry, man
00:09:37I got your back
00:09:42That should be Frank
00:09:43I'll get the door
00:09:48Ryan, my boys
00:09:49Everything packed up?
00:09:50All set
00:09:51Take a look, Frank
00:10:0380 bucks
00:10:04Only because we're neighbors
00:10:05Anyone else?
00:10:06You'd be lucky to get 20 for this garbage
00:10:08Thanks, man, I appreciate it
00:10:14A hundred grand?
00:10:16Cash
00:10:17And you go home with it
00:10:21What did you say, kid?
00:10:23A hundred grand
00:10:25And you can take it home
00:10:29A hundred grand for this junk?
00:10:31Are you nuts?
00:10:33Ryan, who the hell is this guy?
00:10:35Ethan and I survived foster care together
00:10:37He...
00:10:39I got this
00:10:43One hundred grand
00:10:45Trust me
00:10:46You're getting a fair deal
00:10:48You know what that is?
00:10:50In my last life, Ryan never knew what he had
00:10:52Sold it for almost nothing
00:10:53The buyer flipped it for a fortune later
00:10:56Not this time
00:10:58Well?
00:11:00What's it gonna be?
00:11:01A card like this doesn't come around often
00:11:05Hey, hey!
00:11:06Let's talk, man!
00:11:09Fine
00:11:10I'll give you a hundred grand
00:11:13Smart man
00:11:20Damn!
00:11:21Didn't expect to run into a real expert in a shithole like this
00:11:23Pleasure doing business with you
00:11:37All right, you've counted that tiny pile ten times already
00:11:40Ethan! You're a fucking genius!
00:11:42I found these in the dirt!
00:11:44Never expected this much money
00:11:46Here
00:11:47Half of this is yours
00:11:50Hey, I can't take this
00:11:52Just take it!
00:11:54If it weren't for you
00:11:56I would have sold it for next to nothing
00:12:00To cut ties with the Hawthorns and make them pay
00:12:02I need capital
00:12:04Big capital
00:12:08Fine
00:12:10But I'll pay you back with interest later
00:12:13Hey
00:12:14We are beyond keeping score
00:12:18Thanks, man
00:12:23Eat up, sweetie
00:12:24How could your brother be so heartless?
00:12:27I'm fine
00:12:28Don't blame Ethan, he's just
00:12:30He's just, you know, a bit insecure
00:12:33Stop defending him, he's slum trash
00:12:35Absolutely hopeless
00:12:41Sir, I've pulled the records for all of Ethan's expenses
00:12:43How much did he spend?
00:12:45Let's see how he repays it
00:12:47It's, um
00:12:49It's zero, sir
00:12:53Robert
00:12:54Even if you're covering for him
00:12:56Don't make up such a stupid lie
00:12:58Zero dollars?
00:13:00Who are you kidding?
00:13:01Miss Charlotte, I've checked three times
00:13:05How is that possible?
00:13:06He's been living here for four years
00:13:08Didn't spend a single dime?
00:13:10How the hell did he even survive?
00:13:13You must be wrong
00:13:14Ethan is our son, he wouldn't
00:13:19It's really zero
00:13:21How could this be?
00:13:23Ma'am, you stopped his allowance
00:13:26So, Lucas wouldn't feel left out
00:13:30I, did I really say that?
00:13:32Lucas gets a hundred grand a month
00:13:35How could you leave Ethan with nothing?
00:13:37Come on, Victoria, are you blaming Mom?
00:13:40Besides, why didn't he ask?
00:13:41He's just playing victim, that's not what I'm saying
00:13:46Mom, don't overthink it
00:13:48Ethan lived here, he had free room and board
00:13:51Right, we gave him a roof over his head
00:13:54Food on the table
00:13:56Actually, ma'am, Ethan never ate a single meal in this house
00:14:00What?
00:14:03Actually, ma'am, Ethan never ate a single meal in this house
00:14:08What?
00:14:08Nonsense!
00:14:10He's home every day, how could he not eat here?
00:14:12His seat is right-
00:14:18Where is his chair?
00:14:19There's no place set for Ethan, sir
00:14:22What do you mean?
00:14:27Well, Miss Charlotte gave explicit orders
00:14:31I never said anything like that
00:14:37Mom, Dad
00:14:39I, I brought you something
00:14:46These are from the farm where I grew up, they're really-
00:14:51Lucas, what's wrong?
00:14:55Nothing, Mom
00:15:07Lucas is allergic to pig peanuts
00:15:10Are you trying to kill him?
00:15:13I, I didn't know, I'm sorry
00:15:19Lucas, somebody call 911
00:15:22Get him to the hospital, now!
00:15:24Keep your gutter rat tricks out of my house!
00:15:28Sorry, I didn't mean to
00:15:29Get the hell away from us!
00:15:34I didn't, I really didn't know
00:15:37I, how was I supposed to know he'd take it literally?
00:15:40My god, what have we done to him?
00:15:46So what if he doesn't eat at home, he could've just grabbed takeout?
00:15:50With what money, Charlotte?
00:15:54My son!
00:15:55How did he survive all these years?
00:15:58Ma'am, he used to eat downstairs with the kitchen staff, but, but what?
00:16:05Those are all part of our Hawthorne Empire
00:16:11Whatever you want, your big sis has you covered
00:16:13You're the best, Victoria
00:16:17V, Victoria
00:16:23Are we starving you at home?
00:16:25Stop drooling like a stray
00:16:28I, I was-
00:16:29I don't want to hear your pathetic excuses, Robert!
00:16:32Yes, Miss Victoria?
00:16:34Lock the kitchen, we're rich, but we're not running a charity for moopers
00:16:40But, yes Miss
00:16:52Why, why was I so cruel to him?
00:16:54Don't blame yourself, Inspiratoria
00:16:56We owe him nothing, so we overlooked him a bit, big deal
00:16:59He stole from us, remember? Mom's necklace, your bracelet, my ring
00:17:05He must've had a reason, we need to bring him back, right now
00:17:11Good luck finding him, he's probably with his lowlife trash friends
00:17:14He has no money, he'll probably be at the company
00:17:18We'll talk, and everything will be fine
00:17:30I don't care how you do it, fire Ethan immediately
00:17:38Touch screens and cameras are cool, but the software and the OS, that's what changes the game
00:17:45Nova phone is at the finish line, stick to my blueprint, you'll be fine
00:17:49What's the point? Lucas could just walk in here and steal all your credit
00:17:59Keep it down, Lucas is the heir, do you want to lose your job?
00:18:03So what if he's the heir? He's just an empty suit
00:18:07Since Ethan's leaving, I'm quitting too
00:18:08Whoa, calm down Emma
00:18:11Leaving was my personal decision, nothing to do with anyone
00:18:14Ethan, are you seriously leaving? You spent years on this, walking away now?
00:18:19I'm just handing things off, so they won't throw you under the bus later
00:18:23What about Nova's core tech? You built it from scratch, you're just giving it up?
00:18:27In ten years, smartphones will explode, Apple, Peer, tech giants everywhere
00:18:32What Hawthorne owns today is obsolete trash
00:18:35Knowing how the next decade unfolds, I'll crush them easily
00:18:41Yes sir, I fired him already, don't worry
00:18:51Why the hell are you still here? You're fired, pack up your shit!
00:19:05Mark, I know you're the manager, but Ethan built Nova Mobile Westgate Plaza from nothing!
00:19:10You can't just fire him!
00:19:17You stole all his credit! Isn't that enough? How much more are you going to push him?
00:19:22Emma, right?
00:19:24Look, success comes from teamwork, not just one guy
00:19:28Teamwork? Ethan built the entire system from scratch, the data, the security, all him
00:19:31It's the company that made him! Otherwise, you'd think a street rat like him could manage billion dollar projects?
00:19:37You-
00:19:38Besides, the Hawthorne's own this place
00:19:40Lucas Hawthorne can fire whoever he wants
00:19:42Anyone got a problem?
00:19:44You're abusing your power!
00:19:45No, no problem at all
00:19:50Bottom feeders like you, stay at the bottom
00:19:52Cross Lucas Hawthorne and this is what you get
00:20:00The chairman is here!
00:20:10Welcome, Mr. Hawthorne!
00:20:11Mr. Hawthorne! Welcome to the office, sir
00:20:14Just dropping by. Are the company's major projects running smoothly?
00:20:18Everything's on track, sir
00:20:20Victoria has been exceptional as CEO
00:20:22And Lucas has handled both Nova Mobile and Westgate Plaza remarkably well
00:20:26Good. Walk me around the floor, it's been a while
00:20:29Yes, right this way, sir
00:20:36Ethan, are you really gonna let them walk all over you?
00:20:39They can't walk all over me when I'm the one walking away
00:20:42You can't just-
00:20:43Keep your heads up, guys
00:20:44Maybe I'll see you around
00:20:55Since this took over, profit skyrocketed
00:20:57Team morale has never been higher
00:21:00Ethan
00:21:02Excuse me, make way, please
00:21:04Stop right there
00:21:05Have I not made it clear?
00:21:06You're fired!
00:21:07Fired! Get lost before security drags you out
00:21:10Fired?
00:21:12Ma'am, this slacker was ruining office morale
00:21:14I fired him already
00:21:16I'll throw him out now
00:21:19Who gave you the right to fire him?
00:21:24Ma'am, you know him?
00:21:28He is-
00:21:29If I reveal Ethan's identity, it'll break Lucas
00:21:32My poor baby can't handle the scandal
00:21:34He is our housekeeper's son
00:21:36Who gave you the nerve to fire him?
00:21:38Just as I expected
00:21:39How can I still hope?
00:21:42Wait, Ethan actually knows the Hawthorns?
00:21:45Does that mean he can stay?
00:21:46The housekeeper's son?
00:21:48But I got calls from-
00:21:53Mark, I explicitly told you to look out for Ethan on day one
00:21:57Ah, yes, my bad
00:21:58It's just-
00:21:59Ethan's performance has been terrible
00:22:00But since his father works for your family
00:22:02I'll let it slide
00:22:03Hey Ethan, you can stay!
00:22:07Typical leech
00:22:08Zero talent
00:22:10Just freeloading off our family
00:22:11Charlotte, do you have to?
00:22:14Alright Ethan
00:22:16Come home tonight
00:22:18Apologize to Lucas
00:22:19And we move on
00:22:23Apologize?
00:22:24What on earth do I need your forgiveness for?
00:22:27You!
00:22:28I told you I have nothing to do with the Hawthorns
00:22:30I came today to hand in my resignation anyway
00:22:33What did you just say?
00:22:38I'm giving you one last chance
00:22:40Think carefully!
00:22:42Ethan, don't be so stubborn
00:22:43Just apologize
00:22:44And let this go
00:22:46No!
00:22:47I will never forget what your family did to me
00:22:50Don't you yell at us!
00:22:52You're nothing but a parasite living off our family
00:22:54Ethan, don't ruin your future over anger
00:22:59Ethan!
00:23:00How did you become such a monster?
00:23:08A monster?
00:23:10You pushed me down this road
00:23:11Oh, by the way, did you figure out how much I owe you?
00:23:14Watch your tone
00:23:15Let me guess
00:23:17Zero?
00:23:18After all, you never gave me a dime
00:23:19But since I lived under your roof for four years
00:23:23Here's twenty grand
00:23:23That should cover the rent for that little storage room
00:23:28You!
00:23:29Now stay the hell out of my life
00:23:35Good luck running your empire without me since I'm such a perigate
00:23:44Unbelievable
00:23:45The nerve of him!
00:23:46Ethan!
00:23:46You ungrateful leech!
00:23:48The Hawthorns gave you a job, and this is how you repay them?
00:23:52Mr. Hawthorn, don't worry
00:23:54Our projects are solid
00:23:55We don't need him
00:23:56Projects were all built by Ethan from SIR
00:23:58Dad, don't get mad
00:23:59Ethan's just naive
00:24:00Once he gets a taste of the real world, he'll understand
00:24:04Without the Hawthorn family, he's nothing
00:24:06Mark?
00:24:06Sir!
00:24:07Mark!
00:24:08Make sure no one in the industry hires Ethan
00:24:10Any company that does will be an enemy of the Hawthorn group
00:24:12Yes, sir!
00:24:16Let's see how long that arrogant brat lasts on the streets
00:24:18Dad, isn't that a bit too far?
00:24:21He earned it
00:24:22He wanted to cut ties with us?
00:24:23Fine, let him starve outside
00:24:25That brat is completely out of control
00:24:26Lucas, stay on top of the projects and keep them moving
00:24:28Make that brat regret what he did
00:24:30Count on me, Dad
00:24:31I won't let you down
00:24:52Lucas, what are you doing?
00:24:58I-
00:25:00Oh, I was just about to do the laundry
00:25:02That's what the staffer's for
00:25:03Did you need something?
00:25:05I-
00:25:06Nothing, never mind
00:25:08Okay
00:25:10I have to head back to the office soon
00:25:11Will I need to get changed?
00:25:13Yeah, okay
00:25:13I-
00:25:19I-
00:25:20I-
00:25:20I-
00:25:20I-
00:25:20I-
00:25:21I-
00:25:22I-
00:25:24We used to be a happy family
00:25:26We used to be a happy family
00:25:26How did everything fall apart?
00:25:31Where did Ethan even get that much cash?
00:25:34Think about it
00:25:34He must have sold mom's diamonds
00:25:36That's stolen money
00:25:39He left without taking a single bag
00:25:41He couldn't possibly carry all those jewels out
00:25:45Then he sold them way before he got kicked out
00:25:47Then where's the money?
00:25:48His accounts are clean
00:25:50And he couldn't carry that cash around
00:25:58He must have hidden it
00:25:59His room
00:26:00The money has to be in his room
00:26:02I'm gonna find it right now and expose him
00:26:04Where's Ethan's room?
00:26:13Ew! What's that smell?
00:26:15Mary, why did you bring us here?
00:26:17This is where Ethan lives, Miss
00:26:22Mary, please
00:26:23Look around
00:26:24No one can live in this dump
00:26:26It's true, Miss Charlotte
00:26:28I've been taking care of Ethan all this time
00:26:31He's lived here for four years
00:26:39Poor baby
00:26:40He suffered so much out there
00:26:43How could he live here at our home?
00:26:46Richard!
00:26:46You said you'd take care of his room!
00:26:48Is this how you took care of it?
00:26:51Robert!
00:26:52What is going on?
00:26:54Why does Ethan live here when we have other empty rooms?
00:26:56Sir, these were your direct orders
00:26:58Nonsense!
00:26:59When on earth did I say that?
00:27:06So this is my home?
00:27:10Robert!
00:27:13Get him a room, right away, sir
00:27:16Lucas, you're our little brother no matter what
00:27:19If that street rat gives you any trouble, we'll deal with him
00:27:23Ugh! Smells like gutter trash
00:27:26He's polluting our house
00:27:27Sir, all the guest rooms are occupied
00:27:29Ethan, welcome home
00:27:31Don't worry, you can have my room
00:27:34It was never really mine anyway
00:27:37That room is yours, Lucas
00:27:39Nobody is taking it from you
00:27:41Enough!
00:27:42Put him somewhere else
00:27:43Any rooms empty?
00:27:44There is a storage room, but
00:27:46Then the storage room
00:27:47He can stay there until he gets that slum stink off him
00:27:50Yes, sir
00:27:53Four years, Richard
00:27:54You let our son live in a rotting dump for four years?
00:27:58I was busy with work
00:28:01Besides, he's a man
00:28:02So what if his room isn't that nice?
00:28:04It builds his character
00:28:06When he comes back, I'll give him a better room
00:28:08No big deal
00:28:21Back off! You stink! Stay away from me!
00:28:25It's fine, Ethan. Just stand over there
00:28:29Smile on three
00:28:30One, two...
00:28:32Cheese!
00:28:32Cheese!
00:28:39Are these all of Ethan's clothes?
00:28:41Yes, Ethan didn't have any money
00:28:43These were all Lucas' hand-be-downs
00:28:45What?
00:28:48I don't like it
00:28:49Take it off, Lucas
00:28:50I'll buy you a better one
00:28:54Hey, Ethan
00:28:55Perfect timing
00:28:56Here, you can have this
00:28:59Thank you, Victoria
00:29:00This is the first gift I've ever gotten
00:29:02I'll cherish it
00:29:06How could he not even have his own clothes?
00:29:08Is this even his home?
00:29:11He could have just asked for help
00:29:13But he chose to play the victim
00:29:15Besides, our storage room is a million times better than his old dump
00:29:18He stole so much stuff from us
00:29:19Watch me find the evidence
00:29:28Found it
00:29:31What is this garbage?
00:29:33Typical slum kid
00:29:34Typical slum kid
00:29:34No taste at all
00:29:35He can't even steal proper stuff
00:29:37Wait
00:29:39This is...
00:29:41Victoria?
00:29:44Victoria, is there anything you like?
00:29:46Your birthday's coming up and I was thinking
00:29:48Vic
00:29:49Why are you even talking to him?
00:29:51We're gonna be late
00:29:55Coming!
00:29:58Uh, gardenias, I guess
00:30:00Anything's fine, Ethan
00:30:04Okay
00:30:05Have fun, guys
00:30:08Thank you for being my family
00:30:09I hope we'll always be happy together
00:30:12Happy birthday, big sist
00:30:13I just said it without even thinking
00:30:16And Ethan...
00:30:18How can it not be here?
00:30:20Lucas saw him steal it with his own eyes
00:30:22Enough!
00:30:22If Ethan really stole that jewelry, why would he starve?
00:30:25Lucas wouldn't lie to us
00:30:26Ethan must've...
00:30:28What if Lucas was wrong?
00:30:29We never had any proof and we never even listened to Ethan
00:30:34Tell me!
00:30:37Maybe we should check the DNA again
00:30:39Look at him, he's nothing like a Hawthorn
00:30:41Ethan, just give the bracelet back to Victoria
00:30:44Apologize to her and she'll forgive you
00:30:46Ethan, why can't you be more like Lucas?
00:30:48Why do you have to steal?
00:30:50Victoria, I didn't steal your bracelet, I didn't!
00:30:52Alright, what's done is done
00:30:54He has no money, he won't survive a week out there
00:30:58Maybe he was treated unfairly, I'll give him a promotion when he comes back
00:31:01That should be enough
00:31:06How could they be so cruel to their own son?
00:31:10Ethan, fly free
00:31:12Don't ever come back
00:31:20Man, I miss this
00:31:22Ever since you found your family, we haven't hung out like this
00:31:26In my last life, I pushed away my real friends just to kiss up to that toxic family
00:31:32And in the end, I lost everyone
00:31:35How ironic
00:31:42Here you go
00:31:44Thanks, how much?
00:31:45It's on the house
00:31:46If you boys hadn't pulled my kid out of that fire, he'd be dead
00:31:52Wait, are you?
00:31:55Don't tell me you forgot
00:31:56We were working there when that hotel caught fire
00:31:58We pulled his son out, saved his life
00:32:06He breathed in too much smoke
00:32:08It damaged his brain
00:32:11But hey, he's alive
00:32:12Drink up, more beer's coming
00:32:14Hey, man
00:32:15It's in the past
00:32:16Just surviving that fire is a miracle
00:32:21But hey, you're really just walking away?
00:32:23You worked so hard to find your parents
00:32:25I mean, it's the Hawthorne family
00:32:27They're billionaires
00:32:29They never treated me like family
00:32:31Why kiss their ass?
00:32:33If I knew they'd treat me like trash, I would have never gone back
00:32:40So what if they're billionaires?
00:32:42We're young, Ryan
00:32:44We can build our own empire
00:32:48Bro, that's Hawthorne Corp. They own Nova Mobile and Westgate Plaza
00:32:52They're everywhere, what's our play?
00:32:55Simple
00:32:56We can't fight their tech line yet
00:32:58But taking down a department store?
00:33:00Those brick and mortar shops?
00:33:02Piece of cake
00:33:08Dude, let's be real
00:33:11Westgate Plaza, people go there for everything
00:33:13How do we even compete?
00:33:19Have you ever heard of online shopping?
00:33:22Online shopping?
00:33:33I need these files back before the end of the day
00:33:37I still have the Nova phone data to handle
00:33:39I don't have time
00:33:42Make time then
00:33:43If you can't handle tasks
00:33:45What's the company paying you for?
00:33:48You piece of
00:33:50Of course we have time
00:33:53Consider it done by five, boss
00:33:58Smart boy
00:33:59Smart boy
00:34:01Know your place at the bottom
00:34:03And accept reality
00:34:05Don't dream of fighting back
00:34:10Almost forgot
00:34:12You're off Nova project
00:34:13Lucas is taking over both Nova and Westgate
00:34:15From now on you guys can focus on filing paperwork and running errands
00:34:20Are you kidding me?
00:34:21We built those projects from zero
00:34:23You can't just steal our hard work
00:34:27You want a reason?
00:34:29Fine
00:34:29The Hawthorne name is on the building
00:34:31If Lucas Hawthorne wants your project, it's his
00:34:34You understand now?
00:34:37Face it!
00:34:38You people will stay working class for the rest of your lives
00:34:52Screw you, you piece of shit!
00:34:58Are you insane, Kevin?
00:35:00Do you wanna get fired?
00:35:04You and your Hawthorne mesters!
00:35:06I quit!
00:35:14I can't believe I hit the manager
00:35:16That was badass!
00:35:18That punch was so satisfying
00:35:20Mark stole all our credit
00:35:22Someone had to kick his ass
00:35:23Sure, it felt great, but now what?
00:35:25Fired by Hawthorne, who else would hire us in this city?
00:35:29What about Ethan?
00:35:32Right
00:35:33Ethan, he's a damn genius
00:35:34He designed Nova and Westgate
00:35:36I'm sure he can rebuild them
00:35:37Let's go find him
00:35:46Is it done?
00:35:47Yes sir, they're both fired
00:35:49Good
00:35:54Jesus
00:35:56What the hell happened to your face?
00:35:57They lost their minds
00:35:58That moron punched me
00:35:59Mr. Hawthorne, you have-
00:36:00Whatever, as long as they're gone
00:36:02I need Nova Mobile and Westgate Plaza under my control
00:36:05So I can prove nice to my father
00:36:06You can go fix your face now
00:36:08Yes sir
00:36:14We have a crisis, sir
00:36:17There's a security breach in Nova OS
00:36:19The system is about to crash
00:36:21What?
00:36:25Then go fix it
00:36:27Why are you still standing here?
00:36:33Sir, the engineers who could fix it have all been fired
00:36:40You idiots!
00:36:41Can't this company run without them?
00:36:43Do I have to do your jobs?
00:36:56Yes, this is Hawthorne Group
00:36:57Sorry sir, we'll fix your problem ASAP
00:36:59We are so sorry, we will cover your losses
00:37:02Please don't cancel your order
00:37:04How did this happen?
00:37:06Mark!
00:37:07Yes sir
00:37:09Fix this security hole in 24 hours
00:37:12I don't care how
00:37:1524 hours?
00:37:16Boss, that's impossible
00:37:17I'm not a developer
00:37:19One day
00:37:20If it's not fixed, don't bother coming back
00:37:25How am I going to fix it?
00:37:29Wait, Ethan
00:37:31He built the system
00:37:32He must have a way
00:37:45Ethan?
00:37:49Emma?
00:37:50What are you guys doing here?
00:37:52Well, we got fired from Hawthorne
00:37:56Sorry, I dragged you two into this
00:38:00We're unemployed now, Ethan
00:38:01You'll take us in, right?
00:38:03Hey, you guys are senior engineers
00:38:05Welcome aboard
00:38:06Meet Ryan, my childhood friend and co-founder
00:38:15So that's the plan
00:38:16What do you guys think?
00:38:18Brilliant!
00:38:19Online retail plus express delivery
00:38:20And a third party handling the payment
00:38:22So buyers and sellers can trust each other?
00:38:24Genius!
00:38:25This will cripple traditional retail like Westgate
00:38:28Ethan, you're openly challenging Hawthorne
00:38:31I'm not just challenging them
00:38:33I'm going to crush them
00:38:34It's tough
00:38:36Besides retail, Hawthorne also has Nova Phone
00:38:38It's your brain craft
00:38:39You know its value
00:38:40I was worried
00:38:43Until they fired you two
00:38:45Unmaintained code will crash
00:38:47They did this to themselves
00:38:49Ethan, there's a guy named Mark outside
00:38:55Mark?
00:39:00So this is your big empire?
00:39:02Looks like a rat hole to me
00:39:04You ass!
00:39:05Mark, did you really come all this way to roast me?
00:39:08Of course not
00:39:11I'm here to give you a chance to come back to Hawthorne
00:39:14Come back to Hawthorne?
00:39:16Yes!
00:39:17A chance others would beg for
00:39:18What's the catch?
00:39:20Fix Nova OS today
00:39:21Take the blame publicly
00:39:22And take a 50% pay cut
00:39:26What's so funny?
00:39:27Sorry, didn't you say Lucas did all the work?
00:39:30Why ask me?
00:39:31Can't he fix the problem?
00:39:33Ethan!
00:39:34Don't be ungrateful!
00:39:35Do you know how many people would kill for a job at Hawthorne?
00:39:38Then go hire them
00:39:39We're just blood sucking parasites, remember?
00:39:42We can't help you
00:39:44Ethan!
00:39:45Don't think you and these losers can fight Hawthorne
00:39:47Think about the consequences
00:39:48Worry about yourself, Mark
00:39:50If Nova Project dies, will Lucas spare you?
00:39:53You...
00:39:53Got a problem?
00:39:57You got balls, Ethan
00:39:59Just wait, Hawthorne will destroy you
00:40:03Take care!
00:40:04Come by anytime
00:40:09Don't worry, Dad
00:40:11Those security leaks are just rumors
00:40:13Everything's fine here
00:40:14Alright, if Ethan's back, I'll let you know
00:40:22Did you fix the security issue?
00:40:24Sir, I need time
00:40:25Ethan was the one who coded it
00:40:27Give me three days
00:40:28No, two
00:40:31Do you know how much we're losing every day?
00:40:34You useless piece of shit
00:40:35You'd better
00:40:38Lucas
00:40:39Everything alright?
00:40:42Victoria, hey
00:40:44Everything's fine
00:40:45Just dropped the glass
00:40:46What are you doing here?
00:40:48I came to look for Ethan
00:40:49Did he come to work today?
00:40:52Nope, he's probably still mad at us
00:40:54He'll be back once he's cooled off
00:40:56No, I'm still worried
00:40:57I have to go find him
00:41:00Victoria, wait!
00:41:02Ethan, Ethan, it's always Ethan!
00:41:05Mark
00:41:06Yes, sir
00:41:08Swap out the operating system
00:41:10Downgrade it, whatever
00:41:11Just get it to market
00:41:13But the OS is Nova Phone's biggest selling point
00:41:18Buyers are sheep
00:41:19Give them bigger screens and louder speakers
00:41:21That's what they care about
00:41:22Know your place, Mark
00:41:24Execute
00:41:26Go!
00:41:26Right away, sir
00:41:31Ethan, watch me
00:41:32I'll make Nova a hit without you
00:41:42Ethan is such a headache, so dramatic
00:41:45He's nothing compared to Lucas
00:41:47Victoria went to look for him
00:41:49And I talked to Lucas
00:41:50It'll be fine
00:41:52Ethan is my son
00:41:53I lost him for 18 years
00:41:56Now he's left home again, how can I not worry?
00:41:59No one forced him, he's petty
00:42:00Always jealous of Lucas
00:42:01Trust me, he'll come back for money
00:42:02Whatever, my patients need me at the hospital
00:42:04I'm leaving
00:42:09All done
00:42:11Buy Hub?
00:42:12Holy smoke!
00:42:13Ethan, you're amazing!
00:42:14You built this whole site so fast!
00:42:16Hold off on the celebration
00:42:17How's your work going?
00:42:18Don't worry
00:42:18After years in restaurants
00:42:19I know tons of delivery guys
00:42:23Meet Dave and Ben
00:42:24They know every delivery guy in the whole city
00:42:27It's not that big of a deal
00:42:28Just making a living
00:42:29Ethan, don't worry
00:42:30I've got plenty of muscle
00:42:31So what kind of job is this?
00:42:33I'm not giving you a job
00:42:34I'm offering a real business partnership
00:42:37Business partnership?
00:42:46Buy Hub Express?
00:42:47Ethan, I can deliver packages, sure
00:42:49But start a whole delivery company?
00:42:51Are you sure about this?
00:42:51Yeah
00:42:52And it'll be exclusively for our online shoppers
00:42:54Online shoppers?
00:42:55Yeah, Buy Hub Express will handle all the deliveries for Buy Hub
00:42:58I'll take care of the strategy, you guys execute
00:43:01I trust Ryan, you're his best friend so I trust you too
00:43:03I'm in
00:43:04I won't let you guys down, let's make some money together
00:43:06Screw it, count me in
00:43:11Ethan, we went viral
00:43:12We only launched yesterday and already got 300 orders
00:43:17Dave's team can barely keep up
00:43:19That's just the start
00:43:21Once Swift Pay launches and Buy Hub goes nationwide
00:43:23That's success
00:43:25Hurry, post some job listings
00:43:34Ethan, are you alright?
00:43:37You must have been exhausted, let's take a break
00:43:39I'm fine, just low blood sugar, give me a second
00:43:46Ethan!
00:43:50Victoria Hawthorne? Why is she here?
00:43:53Ethan
00:43:55Miss Hawthorne?
00:43:56Last I checked, I don't owe the Hawthorne family anything
00:43:59Don't bother me now
00:44:01Ethan, I'm your sister
00:44:03I'm taking you home
00:44:05Sister?
00:44:06Isn't Ethan the housekeeper's son?
00:44:08Is that what they told you?
00:44:10They hid Ethan's identity for years to protect their precious adopted son
00:44:14I'm confused here
00:44:16Stop right there!
00:44:17You're not my sister
00:44:20I have nothing to do with you Hawthorns
00:44:21Ethan, we checked
00:44:23You never stole anything
00:44:24It was all a misunderstanding
00:44:26Please, come home
00:44:27You checked?
00:44:29A misunderstanding?
00:44:30Lucas got it wrong
00:44:31Come home Ethan, talk to mom and dad
00:44:33They're waiting
00:44:34So Lucas got it wrong, huh?
00:44:36I lived in hell for four years
00:44:37I was your punching bag
00:44:38You beat me, humiliated me, and gaslighted me
00:44:41I'm sorry Ethan, forgive us please
00:44:43Take your fake apology and get lost
00:44:48Ethan!
00:44:50Ethan!
00:44:55Stop acting like you care
00:44:57He's in the hospital all thanks to you Hawthorns
00:45:00He worked all year round
00:45:02Anyone can boss him around at the company
00:45:04And for what?
00:45:05You stole his life's work and kicked him out
00:45:07Is that how you treat your own family?
00:45:08Wait, who stole his work?
00:45:11Abusing the real son for an adopted son?
00:45:14Unbelievable
00:45:17Why are you here? Who are these people?
00:45:20Charlotte, thank God you're here
00:45:21Ethan, he's...
00:45:24Doctor, how is my brother doing?
00:45:26Your brother is severely malnourished and anemic
00:45:29They're clear signs of long-term abuse
00:45:31It'll take months for him to recover
00:45:34Please, he missed a few meals, that's all
00:45:36No big deal
00:45:37Here's his medical report, see for yourself
00:45:43How is this possible?
00:45:46Victoria, look at this!
00:45:47Did we really abuse him?
00:45:55Ethan, how are you feeling?
00:45:57I'm fine, just low blood sugar
00:45:59The IV helped
00:46:01You scared us to death
00:46:07Ethan...
00:46:12Thanks for bringing me to the hospital
00:46:17This covers my medical bills
00:46:18I owe you nothing
00:46:20Ethan, don't be like this
00:46:22The doctor said you need rest
00:46:23Come home with us
00:46:27Home?
00:46:29A cage with no windows?
00:46:31That's my home?
00:46:33A place where I can't even eat at the table
00:46:35Is that my home?
00:46:36Why should I go back?
00:46:38For more abuse?
00:46:41Ethan, watch your tone
00:46:43We're your sisters
00:46:45Besides, if you hadn't been so jealous of Lucas
00:46:47None of this would have happened
00:46:49Charlotte, shut up
00:46:53I'm sorry, I failed you Ethan
00:46:54But I promise
00:46:55This will never happen again
00:47:01Look...
00:47:01This is the necklace you gave me
00:47:03I love it, I really do
00:47:14So you visited my room
00:47:15Four years for the first time
00:47:18How was it?
00:47:19Did you enjoy the view?
00:47:22So you slept in a storage room?
00:47:24You're a man
00:47:25Stop being so petty
00:47:29Petty?
00:47:31Why don't you go sleep in that dump
00:47:33And tell me how you feel
00:47:38I...
00:47:39Charlotte
00:47:40You swore I was the thief
00:47:43Did you find the stolen jewels in my room?
00:47:45Who knows?
00:47:46Maybe you sold them ages ago
00:47:50Where's the money then?
00:47:53I walked out of your house with nothing
00:47:54Remember?
00:48:03What? Lost your tongue?
00:48:05Zero evidence, yet Lucas' words convicted me?
00:48:09You didn't even bother to check
00:48:11Is this your so-called fairness?
00:48:14Ethan, please
00:48:15Give me a chance to make it up to you
00:48:18How?
00:48:18Four years in a dark hole
00:48:20Got beaten every day
00:48:23How can you make it up?
00:48:25You are an abuser, Victoria
00:48:29Playing the saint now is disgusting
00:48:35As for this necklace
00:48:37You were right back then
00:48:38It's garbage
00:48:39Just throw it away
00:49:06Victoria, did you bring Ethan back?
00:49:13He refuses to come home, doesn't he?
00:49:16Don't worry, Mom
00:49:18Ethan's just throwing a tantrum
00:49:19He needs time
00:49:21He's playing the tragic hero, handing out flyers on the street
00:49:25A Hawthorne, handing out flyers?
00:49:28He's disgracing our family name
00:49:33Dad, is that all you care about?
00:49:36The family's name?
00:49:38What is that supposed to mean?
00:49:41No
00:49:42No wonder Ethan left
00:49:43He'd rather slave away out there than come home and be abused
00:49:53Dad, is Ethan really your son?
00:50:08Dad, Mom, hurry up! We're gonna miss our flight
00:50:15Look at you, sweetie, all hyped up for the trip to Maldives
00:50:22Ethan, you're back
00:50:26Mom, Dad, are you guys going on vacation?
00:50:30Where were you fooling around?
00:50:32Look at this filthy mess
00:50:33Do you have to embarrass us?
00:50:38Dad, it's not like-
00:50:39Enough with the excuses!
00:50:40Go kneel in the study
00:50:42Don't you dare get up until we're back
00:51:01Mom, did you ever celebrate Ethan's birthday?
00:51:04Do you even remember it?
00:51:09I...
00:51:23Happy birthday, Lucas!
00:51:26Mom, Dad, I love you so much.
00:51:31Hey, don't forget who ordered your favorite cake.
00:51:35Of course I love you too.
00:51:37And Victoria.
00:51:53Should we let Ethan in? It's freezing outside.
00:51:59No. He smashed your gift out of jealousy.
00:52:01I won't allow such behavior in this house.
00:52:04Let him stay out there and think about what he's done.
00:52:14Happy birthday.
00:52:20And Lucas, did you actually see Ethan stealing things?
00:52:26Vic, come on.
00:52:28Victoria, are you accusing Lucas of lying?
00:52:31He's far too kind to do that.
00:52:34Lucas, I want to hear it from you.
00:52:36Well, I saw Ethan enter Mom's room and the necklace went missing the next day.
00:52:41Everyone's been in Mom's room. That's not evidence.
00:52:44You never saw Ethan take the necklace, did you?
00:52:47Enough, Victoria. It's just a necklace.
00:52:51Why are you interrogating your brother like a criminal?
00:52:54Yeah, just a necklace.
00:52:56You don't even need it.
00:52:57But Ethan got whipped for it!
00:52:59I asked Lucas a few questions and you can't take it, Mom?
00:53:03Why didn't you speak up for Ethan back then?
00:53:05Is Ethan not your son?
00:53:07Come on.
00:53:08Even if we all went into Mom's room, we wouldn't steal.
00:53:11Ethan's the only one in this family who's broke.
00:53:14Right.
00:53:15Ethan's broke.
00:53:16But why?
00:53:17Have you ever thought about it?
00:53:19Because he doesn't have any allowance!
00:53:21That's no excuse for stealing.
00:53:22He didn't.
00:53:23We checked his bank records.
00:53:25Zero.
00:53:26It's zero.
00:53:28He never touched a dime.
00:53:31Meanwhile, Lucas spends over a million every single month.
00:53:40Enough, Victoria.
00:53:42What are you implying?
00:53:43Are you doubting Lucas?
00:53:45He lived with us for 20 years.
00:53:47He even saved our lives, remember?
00:53:55Charlotte, stay awake.
00:53:57Lucas got out.
00:53:58Mom and Dad, they'll come save us.
00:54:05Help.
00:54:07Help.
00:54:20My son is still inside.
00:54:22Somebody help!
00:54:27You're finally awake.
00:54:29Thank goodness.
00:54:29Lucas, did you save us?
00:54:36Lucas, did you save us?
00:54:39Charlotte, why bring it up?
00:54:40We're family.
00:54:42I just did what any brother would do.
00:54:43I'm not doubting Lucas.
00:54:45I just think we should drop our bias against Ethan.
00:54:55What do you mean our plaza's losing customers?
00:55:04Why did the price go up again?
00:55:06Hey, look.
00:55:06The exact one you wanted, right?
00:55:11How is it so cheap?
00:55:12Is this a knockoff or what?
00:55:15No way.
00:55:16Buy Hub is huge right now.
00:55:17Everyone's buying on it.
00:55:18Guaranteed authentic or 10 times refund.
00:55:23Then what the hell are we doing here?
00:55:25Screw Westgate.
00:55:26Let's shop online.
00:55:34Sir, this new platform, Buy Hub, came out of nowhere and completely hijacked our market.
00:55:39Over 10,000 orders in just a few days.
00:55:42Online platforms cut rent and storage costs to drop prices.
00:55:46But scaling this fast requires massive capital.
00:55:49Merchant deposits can't do that.
00:55:54Well, Mr. Vance, who agreed to fund Westgate, backed out at the last minute.
00:55:59He pulled out?
00:56:01What happened?
00:56:02He went to Buy Hub's headquarters.
00:56:03Word is, he's investing in them instead.
00:56:13Mr. Vance, this is Ethan.
00:56:14He built Buy Hub from the ground up with us.
00:56:17Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Vance.
00:56:20I didn't expect Buy Hub's founder to be so young.
00:56:22Impressive work, young man.
00:56:24You flatter me.
00:56:25We're still small, sir.
00:56:26To build an empire, we need your rocket fuel.
00:56:29Bold pitch.
00:56:30But my checkbook doesn't open for free, kid.
00:56:33Right this way.
00:56:34I'll show you why we're worth every penny.
00:56:48I'll show you why we're worth every penny.
00:56:53Impressive.
00:56:54I'm glad I turned down Westgate to come to you.
00:56:56But I have one question.
00:56:58Please, go ahead.
00:56:59Linking SwiftPay to Buy Hub.
00:57:01This third-party payment solves trust issues between buyers and sellers, which is brilliant.
00:57:06But going nationwide is tough.
00:57:08Online shopping is still new to most people.
00:57:10I've considered that.
00:57:11The solution is actually quite simple.
00:57:13I'm all ears.
00:57:14Make SwiftPay everyone's daily habit.
00:57:17Replace cash with online payments.
00:57:20That's a pretty bold statement.
00:57:22I wouldn't have invited you here if I wasn't confident, sir.
00:57:32Payment successful.
00:57:33What is this?
00:57:35A phone with SwiftPay.
00:57:36One tap, that's it.
00:57:40I like your vision.
00:57:41I'm in.
00:57:42If this works, it could change the way people pay for everything.
00:57:47Thank you, sir.
00:57:49Your investment couldn't have come at a better time.
00:57:50Come on.
00:57:51Good projects like yours never lack investors.
00:57:53Make it huge.
00:57:54Go change the world.
00:58:09Westgate has lost over 10% of its foot traffic.
00:58:12At this rate, we'll face a financial crisis.
00:58:17Lucas, don't blame yourself.
00:58:19Nobody saw this Buy Hub coming out of nowhere.
00:58:22Yeah, it's probably just a fad.
00:58:24They'll be gone soon.
00:58:26I found him.
00:58:27Mr. Hawthorne.
00:58:28Buy Hub's founder.
00:58:31It's Ethan.
00:58:32What?
00:58:33No way.
00:58:33He was passing out flyers on the street.
00:58:35He even ended up at the hospital for it.
00:58:37When the hell did he launch Buy Hub?
00:58:38Ethan's in the hospital?
00:58:40When did that happen?
00:58:41Mark, step outside.
00:58:43Yes, sir.
00:58:48Yesterday, I didn't get the chance to tell you.
00:58:50No!
00:58:50I have to go see my son.
00:58:54Relax, Mom.
00:58:55Ethan's fine.
00:58:56Just malnutrition.
00:58:56He's already been discharged.
00:58:58Malnutrition?
00:59:00How could he be malnourished?
00:59:02It's all my fault!
00:59:04I failed him as a mother!
00:59:06He's left home long enough.
00:59:08Time to bring him back and end this nonsense.
00:59:15Cheers!
00:59:16We did it, guys.
00:59:18We got the funding.
00:59:19Everybody give it up for Ethan!
00:59:20Speech!
00:59:20Speech!
00:59:21Speech!
00:59:21Speech!
00:59:22All right, I guess I'll say a few words.
00:59:24First of all, securing Mr. Vance's investment means Buy Hub and Swift Pay are officially on track.
00:59:30None of this would be possible without your hard work.
00:59:32I promise it'll all pay off.
00:59:34This bonus is just the beginning.
00:59:36There's a lot more coming.
00:59:37Yeah!
00:59:39Ethan!
00:59:39Ethan!
00:59:40Ethan!
00:59:41And second, to take Swift Pay to the world, software isn't enough.
00:59:46We'll build our own budget smartphone.
00:59:48Easy to use, and with our pre-installed payment app, we'll lock in users forever.
00:59:52Awesome!
00:59:53Ethan, now that we're expanding, we need a real company name, not just Buy Hub.
00:59:58I've got it.
00:59:59You thought beating the Hawthorns was just a fantasy, yet here we are.
01:00:02This is a miracle for those who never give up.
01:00:05So, welcome to Miracle Era.
01:00:08Miracle Era?
01:00:09To the Miracle!
01:00:11To the Miracle!
01:00:16Ethan?
01:00:21Mrs. Hawthorn, is your family ever going to stop?
01:00:23I don't owe you anything.
01:00:25Stop bothering me.
01:00:27How dare you talk to Mom like that!
01:00:29Shut up!
01:00:30You don't get to boss me around.
01:00:33You...
01:00:33Ethan, what did you call me?
01:00:35I'm your mother.
01:00:37My mother?
01:00:38You said I'm your housekeeper's son, remember?
01:00:42You're Victoria's mom, Charlotte's mom, and Lucas's mom, but never mind!
01:00:46Ethan, I know you hate me, but how could you talk to Mom like that?
01:00:48You're breaking her heart.
01:00:49Is it just me, or does anyone else hear that manipulative bullshit?
01:00:52Who are you?
01:00:53Enough!
01:00:54I get it, Ethan.
01:00:55We overlooked you before, and I shouldn't have hit you.
01:00:57Come home with us.
01:00:59And that amateur buy-heg project, we can take over and run it properly.
01:01:05I was wondering why the great Chairman Hawthorne came all the way himself, playing the loving father.
01:01:10No, Ethan, please.
01:01:11We really want you back home.
01:01:12Oh, really?
01:01:13Then what about BuyHub?
01:01:15Merge it into Hawthorne Group, of course.
01:01:17A venture this big is beyond your capability.
01:01:21You and Lucas will compete to run it.
01:01:23That's only fair.
01:01:25Fair.
01:01:26I guess you really have no shame.
01:01:28You...
01:01:29How dare you disrespect your father like that!
01:01:32Respect is earned, not demanded.
01:01:34I built BuyHub from scratch.
01:01:36You think you can just steal it and make me compete with Lucas?
01:01:39Is he worthy?
01:01:40Are you worthy?
01:01:42Ethan, don't be ungrateful.
01:01:44Letting you back home is a privilege.
01:01:45Lucas is better than you in every way.
01:01:47You're just scared you'll lose to him.
01:01:49Scared of a loser?
01:01:51Charlotte!
01:01:52Get your brain checked.
01:01:53If he's so great, why did my startup steal all his customers at Westgate?
01:01:58You just got lucky!
01:02:02Your company is crumbling, bleeding cash, isn't it?
01:02:10Ethan, mom and dad mean well.
01:02:12Come home, please.
01:02:13I won't fight you for BuyHub.
01:02:14You can have it.
01:02:15Oh, do I owe you a thank you now?
01:02:17We're family.
01:02:18No need for thanks.
01:02:20Was stealing Westlok and Novaphone not enough for you?
01:02:23Now you want Buyetch too?
01:02:25Aren't you afraid of choking on your greed?
01:02:27I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:02:29Ethan, stop lying.
01:02:31Lucas built those brands from scratch.
01:02:34You had nothing to do with them.
01:02:36That's bullshit!
01:02:38Ethan came up with those projects and built the whole framework.
01:02:42Lucas stole them by abusing his position as VP.
01:02:46Use your brain before speaking.
01:02:48Novaphone has an advanced operating system.
01:02:51Could he possibly build that?
01:02:53That was...
01:02:56Don't argue with idiots, Emma.
01:02:59They only believe what they want to believe.
01:03:01What did you say?
01:03:02I'm not good enough for your high and mighty family, all right?
01:03:05Do me a favor.
01:03:06Stay the hell away from me.
01:03:07I'd actually like to live a few more years.
01:03:12You ungrateful brat!
01:03:14So you're dead set on not coming home?
01:03:18I told you a million times.
01:03:20I have nothing to do with your family.
01:03:22Ethan, please.
01:03:23Come home and let your father run your company.
01:03:27Money can't buy family, Ethan.
01:03:29We're your family.
01:03:30You'll always have a place at our table.
01:03:33I never had a full meal in that house in four years.
01:03:37You didn't even allow me to eat with the staff.
01:03:45Quick, Ethan.
01:03:46Eat before they get back.
01:03:53You're shivering.
01:03:55God forgive them.
01:03:56Treating their boy like dirt.
01:03:57You starved me!
01:03:59Without Mary, I'd have died!
01:04:01Did you ever treat me like family?
01:04:02No, Ethan!
01:04:03That's not true!
01:04:04I didn't know!
01:04:05Of course you didn't know.
01:04:07You believed whatever Lucas said.
01:04:09I'm never coming back.
01:04:11Get lost!
01:04:12Fine!
01:04:13You tricked Vance into funding you.
01:04:14You think you're big now?
01:04:16Your little company is no match for Hawthorne Group.
01:04:19Let's see how long it lasts.
01:04:20You'll come begging soon!
01:04:34God!
01:04:35Those rich monsters!
01:04:38Ethan, are you doing okay?
01:04:42We totally burn bridges with them.
01:04:45They'll target us next.
01:04:52Let them come.
01:04:54I have a plan to crush them once and for all.
01:04:59Ungrateful brat!
01:05:02He thinks he can walk all over me?
01:05:05Ethan disowned us.
01:05:07It's all my fault.
01:05:09I failed as a mother.
01:05:14Mom, don't cry.
01:05:16Ethan is only acting tough because of Bi-Head.
01:05:19If his company is gone,
01:05:21I'm sure he'll come back.
01:05:23Right!
01:05:24Cut off his funding!
01:05:26Crush him!
01:05:26That brat dared to talk back to me in public!
01:05:30I must teach him a lesson.
01:05:32Show him who controls the market.
01:05:35Dad, Ethan hates us already.
01:05:38Doing this just pushes him further away.
01:05:42So what?
01:05:43Should we let him blackmail us?
01:05:45That piece of trab!
01:05:46Charlotte!
01:05:48He's your brother.
01:05:49How could you say that?
01:05:52Enough!
01:05:53It's decided.
01:05:56Lucas, put everything into developing Nova Phone.
01:06:00BiGub can't compare to Nova in scale.
01:06:02At next week's launch,
01:06:04we must get Vance to invest again.
01:06:06Don't worry, Dad.
01:06:07I'll make Nova a huge success.
01:06:13Dad, maybe we should reconsider.
01:06:15I've made up my mind.
01:06:17When that brat loses funding,
01:06:19he'll crawl back and beg for forgiveness.
01:06:24Ethan, is this place really ours now?
01:06:27Chill out, man.
01:06:28Act like you belong here.
01:06:30Mr. Vance is really generous
01:06:31for giving us such a luxurious office.
01:06:34Guys, Vance is the top VC in the city.
01:06:37It's not charity.
01:06:39He expects a ten times return on his investment.
01:06:42Get ready.
01:06:43We're about to go head-to-head with Hawthorne Group.
01:06:46Lead the way, boss.
01:06:47We're ready.
01:06:50Kevin, Emma, get our OS ready ASAP.
01:06:53Make sure it's perfect.
01:06:54Here's my design.
01:06:55We have one week.
01:06:56With our experience with Nova,
01:06:58it won't be hard.
01:06:59Leave it to us.
01:07:02Ryan, keep handing out flyers to promote SwiftPay
01:07:04and post some job openings.
01:07:07We need more people.
01:07:08Got it.
01:07:09Dave, Ben, upgrade our logistics.
01:07:13BuyHub orders will explode.
01:07:15We need to keep up.
01:07:16Yes, boss.
01:07:21Hawthorns, I'll reclaim everything I lost
01:07:24in my past life with interest.
01:07:26Not a single one of you will escape.
01:07:44Idiots.
01:07:45What the hell am I paying you for?
01:07:47Isn't everything ready?
01:07:48Just put it together.
01:07:49Sir, integrating the built-in camera
01:07:51and touchscreen is super complex.
01:07:52Ethan's team handled it before.
01:07:54We just took over and-
01:07:54I don't care.
01:07:55I only want results.
01:07:56Give me a working product before the launch
01:07:57or you and your team can get the f*** out.
01:08:00Yes, understood.
01:08:01I'll get on them right now.
01:08:09Hey, what are you doing?
01:08:11Mr. Hawthorne needs to sign this.
01:08:14Lucas is pissed off right now.
01:08:16Just give it to me.
01:08:49I'll settle this.
01:08:49I'll score with the Hawthorns today.
01:08:52My dear brother.
01:08:53I didn't expect you to actually show up.
01:08:57Mom's not here, so done playing Angel, huh?
01:09:02Heard you're making a phone, too.
01:09:04What's it called?
01:09:05X-Phone?
01:09:06What a stupid name.
01:09:08You got a problem?
01:09:10Not at all.
01:09:11Just didn't expect you to humiliate yourself with such trash.
01:09:15Pride comes before the fall, Lucas.
01:09:17I developed Novaphone myself.
01:09:19Fooling your parents was easy,
01:09:20but don't fool yourself.
01:09:25So what if you developed it?
01:09:27It's mine now.
01:09:28After today, Vance will write me a fat check
01:09:31while you go bankrupt.
01:09:40Ethan, what are you doing?
01:09:42Ethan, what are you doing?
01:09:49What do you think you are doing?
01:09:53He's bullying my brother.
01:09:54I'm teaching him a lesson.
01:09:56Let go!
01:09:57Are you blind?
01:09:58Lucas tripped over his own feet.
01:10:02It's fine, Charlotte.
01:10:03Don't blame Ethan.
01:10:05He didn't mean it.
01:10:08Charlotte, just leave it.
01:10:12Oh, I definitely mean it.
01:10:23Have you lost your mind?
01:10:25Now you see it.
01:10:28Love playing the victim?
01:10:30Don't worry.
01:10:31He'll be a real one soon.
01:10:37Ethan.
01:10:38Ethan, this is your last chance to come home.
01:10:41Or don't blame me for what happens next.
01:10:46Save the speech.
01:10:48If you've got what it takes, bring it on.
01:10:54Lucas, are you okay?
01:10:56Haven't you embarrassed us enough?
01:10:57Lucas, get up.
01:10:58The launch is about to start.
01:11:02Just you wait, Ethan.
01:11:03I will drag you back down to the gutter.
01:11:08Ethan, my friend.
01:11:11Mr. Vance.
01:11:14Isn't that Mr. Vance?
01:11:16The top VC in town.
01:11:18Sponsor?
01:11:18For today's event.
01:11:19He looks pretty close to Ethan.
01:11:21Vance never misses.
01:11:22This Ethan guy must be the next tech tycoon.
01:11:28Mr. Vance.
01:11:29Such an honor.
01:11:30I'm Lucas.
01:11:30Okay.
01:11:31This way, Ethan.
01:11:32I saved you a seat up front.
01:11:36Oh, look at me.
01:11:38I'm Lucas.
01:11:41Let's just go.
01:11:44Lucas, I'm sure once Mr. Vance sees your talent, he'll regret everything.
01:11:50Now, I'll demonstrate Nova Phone's unique operating system.
01:11:54Unlike anything else on the market.
01:11:58It's not just a cell phone.
01:12:00It's also a 5 megapixel HD camera.
01:12:03Parable.
01:12:04Always ready to go.
01:12:05Never miss a moment.
01:12:07It is also a music player.
01:12:10A movie theater.
01:12:13Most importantly, Nova Phone features the latest touchscreen and fingerprint unlocking.
01:12:19Nova Phone, your new digital soul mud.
01:12:29Congratulations, Mr. Hawthorne.
01:12:31Nova Phone is shaking up the industry.
01:12:33Like father, like son.
01:12:35It just reshaped the tech world.
01:12:37Built-in camera, multi-touch, all in one.
01:12:40You're sitting on a gold mile.
01:12:42You flatter us.
01:12:43Lucas came up with it.
01:12:45We look forward to working with you all.
01:12:50Enjoyed the show, Ethan?
01:12:52Impressed by my Nova Phone, huh?
01:12:54Lucas, I don't even know what to say.
01:12:56You can't even copy and paste?
01:13:01I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:13:04Don't worry.
01:13:05I'll show you what a real smartphone can do.
01:13:13Built-in camera, touchscreen.
01:13:15Nova Phone did bring some hardware innovations, but I wouldn't call it smart.
01:13:21Now, Miracle Era presents X-Phone.
01:13:24Welcome to the future.
01:13:30Congratulations, Mr. Hawthorne.
01:13:32Nova Phone is shaking up the industry.
01:13:34Like father, like son.
01:13:36It just reshaped the tech world.
01:13:38Built-in camera, multi-touch, all in one.
01:13:40You're sitting on a gold mile.
01:13:43You flatter us.
01:13:44Lucas came up with it.
01:13:45We look forward to working with you all.
01:13:51Enjoyed the show, Ethan?
01:13:52Impressed by my Nova Phone, huh?
01:13:55Lucas, I don't even know what to say.
01:13:57You can't even copy and paste?
01:14:01I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:14:05Don't worry.
01:14:05I'll show you what a real smartphone can do.
01:14:08Okay.
01:14:13Built-in camera, touchscreen.
01:14:16Nova Phone did bring some hardware innovations, but I wouldn't call it smart.
01:14:21Now, Miracle Era presents X-Phone.
01:14:25Welcome to the future.
01:14:28Ladies and gentlemen, the world's first full-screen smartphone.
01:14:34That's a phone?
01:14:35No buttons?
01:14:36Where are the buttons?
01:14:37Does it have a 5 megapixel camera?
01:14:39X-Phone's camera goes way beyond 5 megapixels.
01:14:42It packs a 7MP front camera, plus two 12MP cameras on the back.
01:14:46Time to say goodbye to those heavy professional cameras.
01:14:49Unlike Nova's pressure-based resistive screen,
01:14:52X-Phone uses an advanced capacitive touchscreen.
01:14:54It responds to your body's electrical charge instantly.
01:14:58Zero lag.
01:14:59Smooth like magic.
01:15:00Its high-performance processor and memory can handle complex apps and massive data.
01:15:04This is a real smartphone.
01:15:06A portable computer.
01:15:07No buttons?
01:15:08How do you unlock it?
01:15:10Fingerprints are history.
01:15:13X-Phone unlocks by simply scanning your face.
01:15:18Incredible.
01:15:31Yes!
01:15:32Yes!
01:15:37Where are you going, Victoria?
01:15:41Cheers!
01:15:46Did you see their faces?
01:15:47They look so pissed.
01:15:55Ethan?
01:15:59Are they ghosts or what?
01:16:00Why are you two here?
01:16:02Don't give me that attitude.
01:16:03Winning once doesn't mean anything.
01:16:06Ethan, you won.
01:16:08You've made your point.
01:16:09Now come home with me.
01:16:11Victoria, I don't care what changed your mind.
01:16:12But I am never going back to that hell.
01:16:15Not in this lifetime.
01:16:18Ethan.
01:16:19Get out!
01:16:20You're not welcome here.
01:16:22What's your problem?
01:16:23We are paying customers.
01:16:24Anyone can stay except the Hawthorns.
01:16:27Ethan saved my son from the fire at that hotel.
01:16:30He's my hero.
01:16:31You mess with him, you mess with me.
01:16:34Hotel fire?
01:16:35Which hotel?
01:16:37The one in Southside?
01:16:38Out.
01:16:39Both of you.
01:16:40Get out!
01:16:43Ethan, isn't that your necklace?
01:16:45The one you lost in the fire.
01:16:46Why does she have it?
01:16:47What did you say?
01:16:48It's Ethan's?
01:16:52It touched her skin.
01:16:53I don't want it anymore.
01:16:55What did you just say?
01:16:57This necklace is clearly Lucas.
01:17:00Just look at that thing.
01:17:02I bought it for a few bucks.
01:17:04Like your precious Lucas would wear something this cheap?
01:17:10No.
01:17:11That's impossible.
01:17:14What about that fire years ago?
01:17:16Did you guys save two girls from that fire?
01:17:18We saved a lot of people.
01:17:20Wait.
01:17:22Holy shit.
01:17:23Those two girls we saved were you two?
01:17:25Two snakes.
01:17:26We should have left you there so Ethan wouldn't have suffered so much.
01:17:30Whatever.
01:17:30I don't want buzz cues ruining the mood.
01:17:32I got you.
01:17:32They're out of here.
01:17:33Out.
01:17:33Stop being an eyesar.
01:17:35Wait.
01:17:35Ethan, tell us what happened.
01:17:37Come on, guys.
01:17:38Don't let them ruin our fun.
01:17:42Dad, today was just an accident.
01:17:44Next time I'll-
01:17:44An accident?
01:17:45X-Phone crushed Nova in every way.
01:17:50Ethan's startup beat us.
01:17:51How did I raise a loser like you?
01:17:53Why yell at him?
01:17:55Can't you talk to him nicely?
01:17:56I trusted him with the project,
01:17:58and he embarrassed me in front of the whole city.
01:18:01He handed our market to Ethan like a fool.
01:18:05Speak.
01:18:06Disaster.
01:18:06Mark took most of our cash.
01:18:08He skipped town.
01:18:09What?
01:18:11Find him.
01:18:12Don't just sit there whining.
01:18:13One more thing.
01:18:15Sir, Nova's servers just went down.
01:18:17Users are complaining.
01:18:17Then fix it, dammit!
01:18:19Do I pay you to report bad news?
01:18:20But Ethan, who built Nova's system, was fired.
01:18:22Now none of our engineers can fix it.
01:18:25What did you just say?
01:18:27Sir, if we don't fix this in time, Nova will collapse.
01:18:30Mark left us with a huge financial hold.
01:18:32We can't take another hit.
01:18:36Richard, what happened?
01:18:38You damn fool!
01:18:42Lucas!
01:18:43Lucas!
01:18:46Tell me, Lucas.
01:18:47Where did you get this necklace?
01:18:54What's wrong, Charlotte?
01:18:56I bought it in Europe.
01:18:57Lie!
01:18:57I've checked.
01:18:58It's a flea market thing.
01:18:59Ten bucks.
01:19:01Charlotte, you must have gotten it wrong.
01:19:02Why did you lie?
01:19:03You didn't save us from that fire.
01:19:04Why lie to us?
01:19:07And our missing clothes over the years?
01:19:09Was that you too?
01:19:24We've raised a monster.
01:19:26We tortured our own brother for a sociopath.
01:19:30Charlotte, what happened?
01:19:32Are you trying to kill your brother?
01:19:33Yes!
01:19:34I want him dead.
01:19:35He played me like a fool.
01:19:36I thought he saved me, so I spoiled him over the years.
01:19:38But Ethan was the one who saved me!
01:19:40Yet I abused him for years.
01:19:43What?
01:19:44Victoria, is this true?
01:19:46Ethan was the one who saved you from the fire?
01:19:50Oh, how could this happen?
01:19:53You bastard!
01:19:54What else are you hiding from us?
01:19:55How pathetic!
01:19:56We throw away our own family for a damn liar!
01:19:59A monster!
01:20:00Fine!
01:20:00I'm a monster!
01:20:02But do you really think you are innocent?
01:20:06Please.
01:20:06I wasn't the one holding the whip.
01:20:08It was you people!
01:20:10You chose to put Ethan through hell.
01:20:12Not me.
01:20:13God, what have I done?
01:20:14I tortured my brother.
01:20:15I starved him.
01:20:16I'm a monster!
01:20:17Charlotte!
01:20:19How did it come to this?
01:20:20We were such a happy family.
01:20:23Mom, what's done is done.
01:20:24Ethan won't come back.
01:20:25I'm your only son now.
01:20:26Can't we just go back to how things were?
01:20:28Oh!
01:20:29Get the hell away from me!
01:20:31Guards!
01:20:31Throw this bastard out!
01:20:33Strip him of everything we gave him!
01:20:35Dad!
01:20:36Dad!
01:20:36You can't do this to me!
01:20:37I'm your only son!
01:20:39You old fool!
01:20:44No swift pay?
01:20:45My God!
01:20:45Who carries cash these days?
01:20:47Forget it.
01:20:48Let's just buy it online.
01:20:49BiHub is way cheaper anyway.
01:20:53No.
01:20:54It's over.
01:20:56All over.
01:20:57Sir, are you alright?
01:20:59We tried to talk to Ethan, hoping he could fix Nova's system, but it's been a month, and
01:21:03he still refuses to meet us.
01:21:05Right, Ethan.
01:21:06My son.
01:21:08We still have hope.
01:21:10Sir, where are you going?
01:21:17Ethan, I know I messed up before.
01:21:18I'm so grateful you reached out.
01:21:20I've got a ton of money.
01:21:21If you help me, we can split it 50-50.
01:21:22You mean the money you stole from the Hawthorns?
01:21:24Don't you hate them too?
01:21:25They're done for this time.
01:21:26Isn't that what you want?
01:21:27They were doomed the second Nova failed.
01:21:29That money won't save them.
01:21:30Of course.
01:21:31I know you're brilliant, Ethan.
01:21:33I'm just giving you a little boost here.
01:21:34Sir, Hawthorn's money makes me sick.
01:21:37They're filth.
01:21:38And so are you.
01:21:40What do you mean?
01:21:41You want to leave me to die?
01:21:43Listen up!
01:21:43I can still drag you down with me!
01:21:46What is this?
01:21:47Ethan, what are you doing?
01:21:49Hand him over to the police.
01:21:50Yes, sir.
01:21:51You set me up?
01:21:52Damn you, Ethan!
01:21:54See you in hell!
01:21:55It's been a month.
01:21:57She comes here every day.
01:21:58She wants to see you.
01:22:03Fine, I'll give her a chance.
01:22:16You're finally willing to see me.
01:22:17Ethan, I'm sorry.
01:22:18Please forgive me.
01:22:18We're still family, okay?
01:22:20Family?
01:22:20Have you no shame?
01:22:21You're not worthy of it.
01:22:23Ethan, please!
01:22:24I'm begging you!
01:22:25Tell me what to do so you'll forgive me!
01:22:27Never!
01:22:28Abusers don't get to ask for forgiveness.
01:22:30I'll never forgive you.
01:22:31Get out now.
01:22:32Never show your face again.
01:22:37Ethan!
01:22:39Ethan, I know everything.
01:22:40You built the Nova Project.
01:22:41You saved your sisters.
01:22:43My boy!
01:22:44Forgive your stupid mother!
01:22:46Come home, son.
01:22:47You're my blood.
01:22:49I'm handing you the empire.
01:22:50Yeah, Ethan.
01:22:52We kicked Lucas out and took back everything we gave him.
01:22:54Please, come home.
01:22:58You're passing the Hawthorne group over to me.
01:23:00You are my only son.
01:23:01My only heir.
01:23:04Your company is an empty shell now.
01:23:07All your projects are crippled.
01:23:10Mark stole all your money.
01:23:12You lost clients.
01:23:13And now you remember to hand it to me?
01:23:15Ethan.
01:23:16Don't touch me.
01:23:17Your angel Lucas is a fraud.
01:23:19So you want me back now?
01:23:20Sorry.
01:23:21Too late.
01:23:25Ethan!
01:23:30The son who begged for your love is dead.
01:23:32You murdered him.
01:23:33Get out.
01:23:35I don't ever want to see you again.
01:23:37I don't know that guy, man.
01:23:37Woo!
01:23:38Go!
01:23:38Go!
01:23:39You're all işte!
01:23:39Go!
