00:00:02My name is Aiden Vandergruth. I'm 10. Today I'm interviewing blind dates for my dad.
00:00:09Which means I'm picking my new mom.
00:00:18Good morning, Mr. Whitmore.
00:00:23Remember the deal, buddy. You make the call today.
00:00:26Whoever you like, I marry.
00:00:30Okay, but why do I have to look like I live in a dumpster?
00:00:36Because it's the only way we'll know if they actually have a heart.
00:00:43The first lady took one look at my shirt and walked right out the door.
00:00:51The second one was really pretty.
00:00:54Hey, what do you think you're doing? Ew, you're filthy!
00:00:58But I don't think she liked me.
00:01:01The next one wanted a mansion and a yacht.
00:01:03A penthouse downtown, a driver...
00:01:06I don't even know what that is.
00:01:08So? Does your daddy even have a yacht?
00:01:11We probably can't afford one.
00:01:14Your dad must be a real loser.
00:01:17You don't need a step-mom, kid. You need a charity.
00:01:24Finding a mom is taking forever.
00:01:35Lou, I said two o'clock and I meant two o'clock.
00:01:41Yeah, I'm at the blind date right now.
00:01:44Five minutes, in and out, then I'm hauling your freight. Relax.
00:01:50All right, let's get this over with.
00:01:52I'm Claire Doyle. I drive a rig.
00:01:55Who the heck are you?
00:01:56The broker said booth six.
00:01:59I'm Aiden Vandergruth. I'm here to do my dad's blind date.
00:02:05You? You're covering for your dad?
00:02:08What is his face wanted by the FBI?
00:02:11He sends a kid to do his dirty work?
00:02:14And look at you.
00:02:18You're a mess, kid.
00:02:20You look like you just rolled around in the mud.
00:02:27Good grief, your toes are hanging out of your shoes.
00:02:33Your dad can't even find the time to get you a new pair of shoes.
00:02:4128. 28 ladies who hate me.
00:02:44Hey, come on now.
00:02:47Try these on.
00:02:53I've never had new shoes before.
00:02:56Bought them for my little girl.
00:02:5859 bucks, completely wrong size.
00:03:01The store wouldn't take them back, so they've just been taking up space in my cab.
00:03:05Go on, try them on.
00:03:10What, waiting for a written invitation?
00:03:12Come here.
00:03:20Hey, look at that. Cinderella fit.
00:03:22How's it?
00:03:22How's it feel?
00:03:23Squishing your toes at all?
00:03:27What?
00:03:27Do I have something on my face?
00:03:31My mom used to do that for me.
00:03:33Oh.
00:03:34Your folks split up or something?
00:03:36Who walked out on who?
00:03:40She died.
00:03:42Oh, buddy.
00:03:44Look, let's get you a drink.
00:03:46My treat.
00:03:51$38 for orange juice?
00:03:53What's in it, liquid gold?
00:03:57Come on, kid.
00:03:59I know a place that doesn't rob people.
00:04:05Better, right?
00:04:06Yeah.
00:04:14Hey! Watch where you're driving, jerk!
00:04:16You almost soaked a kid!
00:04:20Come on, sweetie.
00:04:22Let's go home.
00:04:27Mommy?
00:04:32Catch me in my 18-wheeler and I'll flatten your bumper into a pancake.
00:04:35Morons.
00:04:43Hey, what's wrong? You okay?
00:04:45Claire, will you be my mom?
00:04:49My name is Aiden Vandergruf.
00:04:51I'm 10.
00:04:53Kid, you're picking out a mom like you're picking out produce.
00:04:59I haven't even met your dad.
00:05:02What if he's a total creep?
00:05:04Come on!
00:05:05I'm taking you to meet him right now!
00:05:12Hey, wait!
00:05:14My truck is still parked back there!
00:05:18I've got a home to deliver!
00:05:25Two billion into the Cloud Hevel project.
00:05:28I want ground broken by Tuesday.
00:05:30No excuses.
00:05:31Yes, Mr. Whitworth.
00:05:34Sir, the young master found himself a step-mom.
00:05:37He's bringing her into the lobby right now.
00:05:41They're here already?
00:05:42Quick, take me down there.
00:05:56Whoa!
00:05:57Your dad works here?
00:06:02Why has he got you dressed like a street urchin?
00:06:05Wait.
00:06:07Is your dad the janitor here?
00:06:09Or like, the night guard?
00:06:13Nope! My dad is-
00:06:15Aiden Vandergruf!
00:06:26Hold the perimeter.
00:06:27Nobody blows Mr. Whitmorm's cover.
00:06:29Nice weather today, huh?
00:06:31Wow, would you look at that?
00:06:33You can practically see your reflection in these floors.
00:06:36Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:37Why is our boss dressed like a mechanic for a blind date?
00:06:41Has he been watching too much reality TV?
00:06:44You want a gold digger raising the kid?
00:06:46It's a stress test.
00:06:47Now keep your head down.
00:06:53Daddy, why are you wearing that?
00:06:57Just moving some heavy boxes for the big bosses today, buddy.
00:07:01Didn't want to ruin my Sunday best.
00:07:04Daddy, this is my new mom!
00:07:07Nice outfit.
00:07:08You moonlining as a janitor?
00:07:12And don't just claim me, kid.
00:07:14You might not be picky, but I actually have standards.
00:07:1728 interviews, and this is the one he brings home?
00:07:21Fine. Let's see what she's made of.
00:07:23Should we find a place to sit down?
00:07:26Grab a drink?
00:07:28Lead the way.
00:07:37You said grab a drink, and here we are, drinking tap water on a bus bench.
00:07:42Classy.
00:07:43Right on schedule. Here comes the complaints.
00:07:47Not a fan of water?
00:07:48Tell you what, it's payday.
00:07:51Let me go grab us some iced teas.
00:07:53Let's splurge.
00:07:56Sit down.
00:07:57Don't waste your money.
00:07:58Water's fine.
00:08:02With how cheap you're acting, I'm scared you'll make me pay you back the difference for the iced tea.
00:08:09If the state goes south.
00:08:14Sir, she just told you not to spend money on her. That's a first.
00:08:22Okay.
00:08:27All right, let's do this properly. I'm Grant Whit-
00:08:29Sir!
00:08:33Whitmore Group.
00:08:34Whitmore Group delivery guy, that's me.
00:08:37Grant the delivery guy. Got it.
00:08:38He doesn't just deliver there. My dad owns the whole building.
00:08:45Whoa. The whole building? That's so cool, bud.
00:08:52Okay, buddy, let's not exaggerate.
00:08:55He means I work all over the building. Every floor. You know, hauling stuff.
00:08:59A guy with my resume isn't exactly sitting in the boardroom. I'm just a guy doing the heavy lifting.
00:09:04Really?
00:09:06Yeah. I'm 35. His mom passed a long time ago. It's just been the two of us.
00:09:13I bust my back from dawn till dusk. Pulling about three grand a month.
00:09:17But Aiden says he picked you out to be his new mom.
00:09:22So, you think we could make this work? The three of us?
00:09:27Three grand? A month? In this city? And you've got the nerve to bring up marriage?
00:09:38Right on cue. The money always does it. Sorry, buddy. Your mom radar is busted this time.
00:09:45Hello? Are you even listening to me?
00:09:50What exactly are you trying to say?
00:09:52That you're not even trying!
00:09:54Wait. What did she just say?
00:09:57I didn't even finish high school. But I drive an 18-wheeler and pull in eight grand a month.
00:10:03I give my girl a good life. And you want to know what actually makes me mad?
00:10:07It's not your paycheck. It's your attitude.
00:10:15We can break our backs for our kids. But they shouldn't have to suffer with us. Look at him!
00:10:20You bring your boy out here in rags? He's gotta walk around like that in front of strangers?
00:10:25The only decent thing on him is the pair of sneakers I bought him!
00:10:30Kids have pride, Grant. That little boy has pride.
00:10:34What kind of father lets his son go out in public like that?
00:10:39Oh, man. She's eating you alive, sir.
00:10:44Yikes. Wife is really letting him have it.
00:10:47We're not married. You want him? Take him.
00:10:51Keep walking.
00:10:59Dad? Does she hate me?
00:11:02Okay. Maybe I overplayed the broke card. Nobody in their right mind would stay for this.
00:11:12It's her!
00:11:14You two getting in or what?
00:11:17Cleared it with the floor manager. You empty this trailer, you get 300 bucks.
00:11:24All of this? By myself?
00:11:26It's 5,000 pounds. Don't be a baby. Earn the cash and go buy your kids some decent clothes.
00:11:32There's your cut for the haul, Claire. Count it if you want.
00:11:35We're good, Lou. I trust ya.
00:11:41Seriously, though. Where did you dig this guy up?
00:11:44Looks like he's never worked a day in his life.
00:11:47Been at it all afternoon, and barely made a dent.
00:11:50Hmm. Guy's useless.
00:11:52You tie yourself to a man who can't even lift a box, you're gonna be miserable.
00:11:58Should've let me set you up with my guy from the docks.
00:12:00Pulls in 800 a day. Easy.
00:12:05Back up.
00:12:17What is the point of being six foot whatever if you can't even hold a box?
00:12:22Are you even a man?
00:12:24No degree, no muscle, no money.
00:12:27What exactly do you bring to the table?
00:12:31You expect a wife to just suffer through life with you?
00:12:37You talk to me like that.
00:12:39Do you have any idea who I am?
00:12:44Just sit down and catch your breath. I'll do the heavy lifting.
00:12:48You're gonna move these?
00:12:50What's the alternative? Wait for you?
00:12:52We'd be here until Christmas.
00:12:54I'm the man here. I should be ticked.
00:12:56So what? You think a Y-broman makes you a forklift?
00:12:59You think a woman has to sit around waiting for a guy to carry her weight or pay her bills?
00:13:03Newsflash. Anything you can haul, I can haul just as well.
00:13:06She really isn't like anyone I've ever met.
00:13:10Let me help.
00:13:17Hey, what happened? Let me see.
00:13:20It's nothing. Just a scratch.
00:13:23Don't do that. You want a bacterial infection? Hold still.
00:13:27Next time you get cut, you clean it properly. Don't just ignore it, okay?
00:13:34Claire, why is your face so red?
00:13:37What? No, it's not. It's just, it's really hot in here.
00:13:41I can fan you if you want.
00:13:43Look at you three. Perfect little family.
00:13:47Good hustle today, buddy. Here's your cut.
00:13:52I'll take that.
00:13:53So that's it. She just wanted the 300 bucks.
00:13:56Guess I really played myself.
00:13:58What? You got a problem with that?
00:14:02No problem. Keep it.
00:14:04Good. Because from now on, I handle our family's money.
00:14:08Sure. Whatever you do.
00:14:11Wait. What did you just say? Our family? Our family?
00:14:15She said our family.
00:14:22What exactly does that mean?
00:14:24It means I'm not after your money, Grant.
00:14:26I know what it looked like last night.
00:14:27I'm not going to pretend it didn't.
00:14:28But I came back this morning, didn't I?
00:14:29I'm standing here.
00:14:30That's me saying I want to see where this goes.
00:14:32With you. With Aiden. All of it.
00:14:38Last night I was sure she just wanted the 300 bucks.
00:14:41Now she's standing here saying the opposite.
00:14:43And the thing that kills me is...
00:14:45I believe her.
00:14:49You two finally on the same page?
00:14:51Good. Because watching you dance around each other is exhausting.
00:14:55A little extra for the household.
00:14:57Congrats, you two.
00:14:59I appreciate this. Thank you, Lou.
00:15:02Thanks, Lou.
00:15:03Consider it an early wedding gift.
00:15:05Catch you later.
00:15:07Take care.
00:15:10So you're really going to be my mom?
00:15:12I don't have to be the kid without a mom anymore?
00:15:15I don't have much.
00:15:16You sure about this?
00:15:20Who cares?
00:15:21We're just regular people trying to get by.
00:15:23You're a grown man raising a kid on your own.
00:15:25You might be a little rough around the edges, but you show up for him.
00:15:28That's enough for me.
00:15:30As long as you're willing to put in the work, we'll figure the rest out together.
00:15:33She means it.
00:15:34Every woman I've ever known wanted the money, the name, the status.
00:15:37She just wants...
00:15:38this.
00:15:40We'll put in the work.
00:15:42Together.
00:15:50Alright, enough of that in front of the kid.
00:15:52Tonight, come to my place.
00:15:53I want you to meet my daughter.
00:15:55We'll be there.
00:16:00Is she nice?
00:16:18Don't just sit there.
00:16:19Say hi to Grant.
00:16:21Hey.
00:16:25Hey there.
00:16:26I was in a bit of a rush getting here.
00:16:28Didn't know exactly what you were into.
00:16:30Figured you couldn't go wrong with Barbie.
00:16:32Got this for you.
00:16:33Hope you like it.
00:16:35I already have this one.
00:16:39Oh.
00:16:41Uh...
00:16:42It's okay.
00:16:43You didn't know.
00:16:50Fair enough.
00:16:52That was a total amateur move on my part.
00:16:54My bad.
00:16:55Claire's a saint.
00:16:56And this kid's got a good poker face.
00:16:58Reminds me of someone.
00:16:59Next time I'll do better.
00:17:01Any hints?
00:17:02What are you actually into?
00:17:04I like art stuff.
00:17:06Markers and things.
00:17:08Markers.
00:17:09Got it.
00:17:10I can work with that.
00:17:12She's just a kid.
00:17:13Don't blow your cover trying to be the big shot.
00:17:16Keep it simple.
00:17:17Keep it real.
00:17:22Interesting kid.
00:17:28The ultimate SAT mastery bundle?
00:17:31Exactly.
00:17:32I'd rather put this time into something that actually matters for my future.
00:17:37Maya, honey, we've been over this.
00:17:38You're a kid.
00:17:39You're allowed to just be a kid and play.
00:17:41You don't need to be grinding through textbooks every waking second.
00:17:43Mom, I just want to work really hard so I can take care of you someday.
00:17:46I want you to have a good life.
00:17:47That's all I'm thinking about.
00:17:49Wow.
00:17:50Alright, alright.
00:17:51I'll just sit back and let you take care of everything then.
00:17:53You guys make yourselves at home.
00:17:55I'm going to start dinner.
00:17:56Let me give you a hand with that.
00:17:57Not a chance.
00:17:57You sit.
00:18:03Can we play a game now?
00:18:06Yeah, definitely.
00:18:11Let's do timed practice sections.
00:18:24Can we just turn the TV on just for a second?
00:18:27No.
00:18:28You haven't even finished this section.
00:18:30Look at this one.
00:18:30It's basic math and you messed it up.
00:18:32Erase it and do it again.
00:18:33The kid's been a nightmare with tutors since day one.
00:18:36Must have chewed through a hundred of them.
00:18:38Finally, someone who can actually keep her in line.
00:18:41Alright.
00:18:42Clear a space.
00:18:43Soup's up.
00:18:46Whoa.
00:18:47The big pieces.
00:18:50Here you go, Maya.
00:18:51Eat up.
00:18:54Of course.
00:18:55Not her own blood.
00:18:57She's always going to play favorites.
00:18:59Did I make a massive mistake bringing her here?
00:19:01And these two monsters are for you, Aiden.
00:19:03You're a growing girl.
00:19:06Yes!
00:19:24Thanks, Mom.
00:19:26Thanks, Mom.
00:19:29Tell me that she Zielinski is.
00:19:35Yes, isn't it?
00:19:35What 1993 was yours?
00:19:36Ten years I kept him isolated.
00:19:38I really thought my money was enough.
00:19:41I was wrong.
00:19:45Hello?
00:19:46No.
00:19:47I'm not marrying that bald crap.
00:19:48I told you I already found someone.
00:19:49Why would I lie about that?!
00:19:51Fine.
00:19:52I'll bring him by tomorrow.
00:19:54You, tomorrow, my parents' house, we're getting engaged.
00:20:00Come again?
00:20:12Tell me we're ready.
00:20:13Ten million in the wire transfer, the deed to the penthouse in the Heights,
00:20:16and three million in custom diamonds.
00:20:17Locked and loaded, sir.
00:20:20You ready to go get your new mom?
00:20:24Let's do it.
00:20:28A bricklayer?
00:20:30Making three grand a month?
00:20:31With a ten-year-old kid?
00:20:33Are you out of your mind?
00:20:34I told you, it's handled.
00:20:36He's coming to propose today.
00:20:37Should be hitting the edge of town right about now.
00:20:40Yeah!
00:20:41A broke bricklayer!
00:20:43Over my dead bite!
00:20:55Beggars can't be choosers, Claire.
00:20:56The guy owns three coal mines.
00:20:57He pulls in seven figures.
00:20:59You should be kissing the ground he walks on.
00:21:00Plus, if you marry him, Cody gets a management spot at the mine.
00:21:03You gotta think about the family for once, not just yourself.
00:21:05Yeah, come on, sis.
00:21:05Take one for the team.
00:21:09I'm done.
00:21:10From now on, Claire Doyle looks out for Claire Doyle and my daughter.
00:21:13I'm not settling for anyone's leftovers ever again.
00:21:14Tell him, Mom!
00:21:15We are trying to secure your future, you ungrateful brat.
00:21:18I hear his fancy car.
00:21:19I don't care.
00:21:19He's not setting one foot past this gate.
00:21:21I'm locking it right now.
00:21:22It's my wedding, Walter.
00:21:23Your permission wasn't on the registry.
00:21:24I'm just giving you a heads up so you don't act surprised.
00:21:26Watch your mouth!
00:21:27I am your father!
00:21:28Stepfather, let's not blur the lines.
00:21:30Please, Walter, let it go.
00:21:31She's a grown woman.
00:21:32Let her make her own choices.
00:21:34Sip it, Margaret!
00:21:35We hand her a millionaire on a silver platter,
00:21:36and she throws it away for some guy who lays bricks!
00:21:38A millionaire?
00:21:39You mean Dale Sinclair?
00:21:40The guy's got three hairs left on his head.
00:21:42If we ever got into a fight,
00:21:43I wouldn't even have anything to grab!
00:21:45Take one for the team?
00:21:46I've been taking it for the team my whole life.
00:21:48Walter drilled it into my head since I was ten.
00:21:49I dropped out of high school to pay your tuition.
00:21:51I made two grand a month driving trucks
00:21:52and sent you 800 of it.
00:21:53And what did you get on your SATs, Cody?
00:21:54You bombed it!
00:21:55You're useless!
00:21:56My future?
00:21:57Or Cody's?
00:21:57You picked my first husband too, remember?
00:21:59Promised me the moon?
00:21:59Turned out he was a drunk who gambled away the rent.
00:22:00I barely lasted a year.
00:22:01So yeah, I'm picking my own husband this time.
00:22:02Well, pick better.
00:22:03Probably having Dale who keeps in his ashtray.
00:22:04Don't come crying to us for grocery money
00:22:05when you're living in a trailer.
00:22:06Exactly.
00:22:07Guy probably can't even afford a decent six-pack
00:22:09to bring to the door.
00:22:10I bet he's peddling his rusty little tenskier
00:22:12up the dirt road right now,
00:22:13huffing and puffing.
00:22:30What is he doing here?
00:22:43Dale, Mr. Sinclair, what an absolute honor.
00:22:46To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:22:47I'm here for Claire, making it official today.
00:22:49Vintage McAllen, imported Cuban cigars,
00:22:51a couple of Rolex.
00:22:52Oh, and the main event,
00:22:53a cashier's check for $880,000.
00:22:55Back off.
00:22:57Nobody's selling me today.
00:22:58If you're so desperate for his money,
00:23:00go divorce my brother and marry him yourself.
00:23:02Excuse me?
00:23:03Oh my God!
00:23:04Dale, you are way too generous.
00:23:06A catch like you?
00:23:07Claire would be out of her mind
00:23:08not to marry you even without the cash.
00:23:09Back off.
00:23:10Nobody's selling me today.
00:23:11If you're so desperate for his money,
00:23:13go divorce my brother and marry him yourself.
00:23:15Excuse me?
00:23:17Come on, Claire.
00:23:18I hear you're still out there
00:23:19driving those big rigs.
00:23:20Why work yourself to the bone like a man?
00:23:22Marry me.
00:23:22You can stay home, lounge by the pool,
00:23:24sit mimosas, easy living.
00:23:25And the kid?
00:23:26I'll put her in that $800,000 a year prep school.
00:23:28No more sweating over public school tests.
00:23:30I'm giving you a way out.
00:23:34We don't need your money.
00:23:36Keep it.
00:24:01St. Clair!
00:24:04Get back here!
00:24:05We're not finished!
00:24:15Look, Dale.
00:24:16You've got a great bank account,
00:24:17but I'm just not into the shiny head.
00:24:19Pack up the boxes and hit the road.
00:24:22Plus, you're double booked.
00:24:24The guy I'm actually marrying
00:24:25is showing up today to put a ring on it.
00:24:28Excuse me?
00:24:29Cody!
00:24:30What kind of circus are you running here?
00:24:32Dale, man, I'm sorry.
00:24:34She's just...
00:24:34She's acting out right now.
00:24:39Have you lost your damn mind, Claire?
00:24:41I'm telling you right now,
00:24:42there is no negotiation.
00:24:43You are marrying Mr. Sinclair.
00:24:44You can pack your bags.
00:24:44I'll cut you off completely.
00:24:45You won't be a Doyle anymore.
00:24:46Good!
00:24:47Cut us off.
00:24:47Mom and I don't need a bunch of greedy leeches anyway.
00:24:49I'll get a scholarship
00:24:50and buy her a real house.
00:24:52You little brat!
00:24:53I'll teach you some respect!
00:24:55Stop it!
00:24:57Just let her marry who she wants!
00:25:03You sold her to a gambling addict
00:25:05the first time just to get a payout.
00:25:07You ruined her life once.
00:25:08I won't let you do it again.
00:25:11Shut your mouth!
00:25:13Grandma!
00:25:17Don't you touch her!
00:25:19You put one more hand on her
00:25:21and I swear to God!
00:25:25She is your wife.
00:25:27She defended me.
00:25:28You hit her for that.
00:25:30I will never forgive you for this.
00:25:32Not ever.
00:25:34Not ever.
00:25:40You want to hit my mother?
00:25:42Fine!
00:25:43Nobody walks out of this yard today!
00:25:50Are you crazy?
00:25:51Put that down!
00:25:54Claire, come on.
00:25:55You're...
00:25:55You're...
00:25:56You're being totally unreasonable right now.
00:26:01You beat my mother
00:26:02and you want to talk to me
00:26:03about being reasonable?
00:26:04Bullshit!
00:26:05Get on your knees
00:26:05and apologize to her right now
00:26:06or I swear to God
00:26:07this doesn't end.
00:26:08Apologize to my own wife?
00:26:09Not a chance in hell.
00:26:10Yeah!
00:26:11We didn't even do anything wrong!
00:26:12You're not going to do anything!
00:26:17I'm not going to apologize.
00:26:19Right?
00:26:19Good.
00:26:20No!
00:26:23No!
00:26:24No!
00:26:25No!
00:26:26No!
00:26:26No!
00:26:32No!
00:26:33You threw a weapon
00:26:33on your own father?
00:26:35You're out of your damn mind!
00:26:37No!
00:26:42No!
00:26:43My mother swallowed your garbage
00:26:45for 30 years
00:26:45and I am done
00:26:46swallowing it for her.
00:26:48You are going to look her
00:26:48in the eye
00:26:49and apologize.
00:26:49Right now!
00:26:50Claire, come on.
00:26:51Put it down.
00:26:53Claire, please!
00:26:55Drop it!
00:26:56Don't do this!
00:26:59Apologize.
00:27:00Say it to her.
00:27:02The girl's completely snapped.
00:27:05Nope.
00:27:06No way.
00:27:07You bring a psycho like that
00:27:08into the house
00:27:08you don't wake up in the morning.
00:27:09You folks,
00:27:10you work this out yourselves.
00:27:11I'm out!
00:27:11Del!
00:27:12Wait!
00:27:15You crazy bitch!
00:27:16You just scared off
00:27:17the only money
00:27:18this trash hilt
00:27:18was ever going to see.
00:27:19What kind of man
00:27:20is ever going to want
00:27:21a psychotic,
00:27:21broken-down spinster
00:27:22like you?
00:27:40I want her.
00:27:50I want her.
00:27:53Look at the cut
00:27:54on that jacket.
00:27:55That's real money.
00:27:56Makes Dale look like
00:27:57a cheap joke,
00:27:58doesn't it?
00:27:59Dressed up like a billionaire.
00:28:00Bet he still hauls
00:28:01bricks for a living.
00:28:02Please.
00:28:03He probably rented
00:28:04the whole get it
00:28:04just to come down here
00:28:05and play the big shot.
00:28:09Mom!
00:28:11Grandma!
00:28:12Grandpa!
00:28:13Oh, look at you.
00:28:14Aren't you sweet?
00:28:16Hold it right there, kid.
00:28:17I'm nobody's grandpa yet.
00:28:20Uncle Cody?
00:28:22Aunt Brittany?
00:28:23Uh, yeah.
00:28:24Hey.
00:28:25Aiden, get over here.
00:28:27Those are the bad guys.
00:28:29Mr. Doyle.
00:28:30Mrs. Hidges.
00:28:31I came here today
00:28:32to formally ask for Claire's hand.
00:28:33I've prepared...
00:28:33Let's skip the polite garbage.
00:28:34You want my daughter?
00:28:35We do things a certain way
00:28:36around here.
00:28:36It's 50,000 for the dowry
00:28:37plus another 20,000
00:28:38to help my boy build a new house.
00:28:3970 grand total.
00:28:40Unbelievable.
00:28:41We brought 8 million
00:28:41in the trunk
00:28:42and these idiots
00:28:42are holding around
00:28:43and walk right back out
00:28:43for 70 grand.
00:28:44So, just 70,000?
00:28:46That's all you want?
00:28:48Dad, you're pushing it.
00:28:50A construction worker
00:28:50doesn't have 700 grand.
00:28:51You already scared off
00:28:52the factory manager.
00:28:52If this guy walks,
00:28:53we get nothing.
00:28:54Tell you what,
00:28:54I'm in a Friedenig mood today.
00:28:56Let's call it a family discount.
00:28:57Half a million flat.
00:28:57A discount?
00:28:58He's auctioning off his own kid.
00:29:00Did it before, too.
00:29:00Sold her to that deadbeat drunk
00:29:01for 100 grand the first time around.
00:29:03Now he wants five times that?
00:29:04For a divorced woman with baggage,
00:29:05she ain't worth half a million.
00:29:07Boss, these people
00:29:08are absolute vultures.
00:29:09We're not actually
00:29:10indulging this, are we?
00:29:12I'm Marion Claire.
00:29:13Whatever she wants to do,
00:29:14we do.
00:29:16Walter Doyle!
00:29:17Half a million dollars?
00:29:18Are you out of your mind?
00:29:20She's your daughter,
00:29:20not a piece of livestock.
00:29:22I put a roof over her head
00:29:23for 20 years.
00:29:24I'm collecting my return
00:29:26on investment.
00:29:29It's fine, Mom.
00:29:30Let him have it.
00:29:31Pay the man.
00:29:33Unbelievable.
00:29:34Rewarding these parasites here.
00:29:36Put the plastic away.
00:29:37That's too much effort.
00:29:38I got this.
00:29:47Five bucks.
00:29:48That's what I'm worth to you?
00:29:50Fine.
00:29:51I'm buying myself back.
00:29:54Oh.
00:30:06Five dollars?
00:30:08What the hell is this supposed to mean?
00:30:09It means I'm done.
00:30:10I've bled for this family
00:30:11since I was a kid.
00:30:12Five bucks?
00:30:12That's my buyout.
00:30:13As of right now,
00:30:14I don't owe you a single cent
00:30:15and we are no longer family.
00:30:16You ungrateful little brat.
00:30:18I put a roof over your head.
00:30:19I raised you.
00:30:20Save it.
00:30:20You didn't raise me.
00:30:21Every dime you had
00:30:22went straight to Cody.
00:30:23The only person in this house
00:30:24who ever gave a damn about me
00:30:25was Mom.
00:30:25She washed my clothes,
00:30:26she cooked my meals,
00:30:27she slipped me whatever spare change
00:30:28she could hide from you.
00:30:29You?
00:30:29You treated the stray dogs
00:30:30in the alley better
00:30:31than you ever treated me.
00:30:32And I'm not just cutting ties.
00:30:33I'm taking my mother.
00:30:34She's coming to live with me.
00:30:35Her days of being
00:30:36your unpaid servant
00:30:37and walking on eggshells
00:30:38around you are over.
00:30:39Let's go, Mom.
00:30:41Boss,
00:30:43she does not take prisoners.
00:30:45Told you I had good taste.
00:30:46Let's go.
00:30:50Dad, wait.
00:30:51If Mom leaves,
00:30:52who's going to cook dinner tonight?
00:30:54Let the country bump
00:30:55and throw her a little tantrum.
00:30:57She doesn't have a dime
00:30:57to her name.
00:30:58Don't worry about it, Cody.
00:31:00She'll be back by dinner.
00:31:04Wait right here, Mom.
00:31:05I'll go pull the rig around.
00:31:08No need.
00:31:09We're taking this one.
00:31:11Whose is that?
00:31:12A Rolls?
00:31:13That's a half-million-dollar car.
00:31:15It's mine.
00:31:16I'll explain later.
00:31:17Just get in.
00:31:21Hold it right there!
00:31:23All right,
00:31:23you've had your little tantrum.
00:31:24Now get back inside
00:31:25and start dinner.
00:31:26Yeah, Mom.
00:31:26Dad's practically begging.
00:31:27Don't push it.
00:31:28Besides,
00:31:28what kind of life
00:31:29are you going to have
00:31:29with this broke brick waiter?
00:31:30That car's a rental, honey.
00:31:31I can smell the hurts on it.
00:31:32Exactly.
00:31:32You guys are going to be
00:31:33eating breadcrumbs by Tuesday.
00:31:34Listen to me very carefully.
00:31:35She's with us now.
00:31:36I'm going to give them a life
00:31:37you can't even comprehend.
00:31:38Stay out of our way.
00:31:39You?
00:31:40Please!
00:31:40You haul boxes for minimum wage
00:31:42and you've got three mouths to feed now.
00:31:43You'll be living in a cardboard box!
00:31:46Enough of this garbage.
00:31:47Get in the house, now!
00:31:50Go back yourself.
00:31:52I'm done.
00:32:00So who's cooking tonight?
00:32:04Dad.
00:32:05I think she actually left.
00:32:08Great going, Walter.
00:32:09You just had to push her.
00:32:11Now who's making dinner?
00:32:12Who's making it?
00:32:13You are!
00:32:14Get in the kitchen!
00:32:15Excuse me?
00:32:16I don't cook!
00:32:17Cody, tell him!
00:32:20I should have asked you first.
00:32:22Dragging my mum into this.
00:32:23Are you furious?
00:32:24Furious about what?
00:32:25Your family is my family, Claire.
00:32:28That's five mouths to feed now.
00:32:30I'm going to have to pick up
00:32:31double shifts at the yard
00:32:32just to keep the lights on.
00:32:33You won't have to worry anymore.
00:32:35What does that mean?
00:32:36Where are we even going?
00:32:37We're going to our new home.
00:32:40Don't cry, Grandma.
00:32:41We're safe now.
00:32:42I'm not sad, sweetheart.
00:32:44It's just 30 years.
00:32:46It's the first time I feel like
00:32:47I can actually breathe.
00:32:48When I get bigger,
00:32:49I'm going to make a million dollars.
00:32:50I'll buy you the biggest house
00:32:51in the world, Grandma.
00:32:52Nobody will ever yell at you again.
00:32:53You're a good girl, Maya.
00:32:55Aiden, honey,
00:32:56is your dad's place
00:32:57going to fit all of us?
00:32:58I don't want to crowd you.
00:32:59I can always find
00:33:00a friend's couch for a few weeks.
00:33:01Trust me, Grandma.
00:33:02We've got room.
00:33:14Grandma, this is home now.
00:33:17Mom, Maya.
00:33:18You made it.
00:33:19Let's get you inside.
00:33:21Grant, honey,
00:33:22where did Claire go?
00:33:23She was in the car when we left.
00:33:25I didn't see her get out.
00:33:26Right.
00:33:27About that.
00:33:28Frank, are you serious?
00:33:30Eight grand for one run?
00:33:31Yes, I'll take it.
00:33:33Just bagged a massive long haul.
00:33:352,000 miles, 8,000 brucks.
00:33:36I need to go load the rig right now.
00:33:38Grant, pull over.
00:33:41Claire, wait.
00:33:42You don't have to kill yourself
00:33:43driving trucks anymore.
00:33:44I'm actually...
00:33:45Babe, we've got a whole house
00:33:46of people depending on us now.
00:33:47If I don't hustle,
00:33:47how are we going to feed them?
00:33:48I'll only be gone a few days.
00:33:50Just take good care
00:33:50of my mom and Maya for me, okay?
00:33:53Hey, be careful out there.
00:33:55Always.
00:33:59Let's head inside
00:34:00and get settled.
00:34:02Grant,
00:34:03did you actually buy this place?
00:34:09Mr. Whitmerd,
00:34:11everything is prepared
00:34:12as you requested.
00:34:16Welcome home, Margaret.
00:34:18You and Maya can finally relax.
00:34:20This is all yours now.
00:34:22But Claire always said
00:34:23you loaded boxes at a warehouse,
00:34:24and yet the butler
00:34:25just called you Mr. Whitmore
00:34:26like you own the whole county,
00:34:27which I'm starting to think you do.
00:34:28Grandma, please, look at him.
00:34:30You're not a mover.
00:34:30You're the boss, aren't you?
00:34:32That obvious, huh?
00:34:33Guess the butler
00:34:34already did the introduction for me.
00:34:35I don't just study math all day.
00:34:37I watch TV.
00:34:37The undercover billionaire stepdad
00:34:39is a classic trope.
00:34:40A boss?
00:34:41Wait, so you make, what,
00:34:4210,000 a month?
00:34:44Let's just say
00:34:44I can keep the lights on for us.
00:34:46Mom still thinks
00:34:46we're completely broke.
00:34:47She's out there
00:34:47hauling freight right now.
00:34:48So when are you telling mom the truth?
00:34:49As soon as she finishes this run,
00:34:51I'll come clean.
00:34:52Until then,
00:34:52just let yourselves be spoiled.
00:34:59Welcome home, madam.
00:35:09Gotta make enough for the family.
00:35:11Time to roll.
00:35:18Doyle, you're putting us
00:35:19in an awkward position.
00:35:20Can't you just sit down
00:35:21and have a proper meal?
00:35:22A dollar's a dollar, Mac.
00:35:24You guys want to waste time
00:35:24at a diner, go ahead.
00:35:25I'm on the clock.
00:35:27You're putting us
00:35:27in an awkward position.
00:35:28Can't you just sit down
00:35:29and have a proper meal?
00:35:30Got mouths to feed.
00:35:32I push through a few more
00:35:33of these long hauls.
00:35:34My mom and my kid
00:35:34can actually breathe for a minute.
00:35:36Well done, girl.
00:35:38Two days since I called.
00:35:39Hope mom's holding up
00:35:40okay with everything.
00:35:49Ma'am,
00:35:50your daughter is calling.
00:35:52Your daughter is calling.
00:35:56Hey, sweetie.
00:35:59Who is this?
00:36:02It's your mother, sweetheart.
00:36:04Mom,
00:36:05why are you dressed like that?
00:36:08Where are you right now?
00:36:09Oh, just home.
00:36:12Grant?
00:36:13Grant Whitmore?
00:36:14The guy who hauls boxes
00:36:15for three grand a month?
00:36:16He got you a mansion
00:36:17with a staff?
00:36:18Mom,
00:36:18are you being scammed right now?
00:36:19Oh, stop it.
00:36:20It's your husband.
00:36:20He set all this up.
00:36:22A few days ago,
00:36:22I was still scrubbing floors
00:36:23for Walter out in the country.
00:36:25I've never seen a house
00:36:25like this, Claire.
00:36:26We've got maids, honey.
00:36:28Maids.
00:36:28You walked out on Walter
00:36:29just a few days ago.
00:36:30What,
00:36:30did Grant win the lottery
00:36:31while I wasn't looking?
00:36:32Why would I lie?
00:36:33I texted you the address.
00:36:34Just finish your route
00:36:35and come see for yourself.
00:36:36Now let me go.
00:36:36My neck massage is starting.
00:36:37Mom, wait.
00:36:38Don't hang.
00:36:39There is no way
00:36:40that was real.
00:36:46This,
00:36:46this is the address.
00:36:51Okay.
00:36:52Either Grant hit the lottery
00:36:54or something's very wrong.
00:36:58Skyline Estates?
00:36:58Mom definitely copy-pasted
00:37:00the wrong zip code.
00:37:05Hey.
00:37:07Done with your route?
00:37:08Grant, listen.
00:37:08Mom sent me an address
00:37:09for the new place.
00:37:10I'm sitting outside
00:37:11something called Skyline Estates.
00:37:12There are literal fountains out here.
00:37:13Tell me she made a typo.
00:37:14No typo.
00:37:15Just go up and knock.
00:37:16I'll be home soon
00:37:17to explain everything, okay?
00:37:18See you in a bit.
00:37:22Are they pranking me?
00:37:23Whatever.
00:37:24Let's just get this over with.
00:37:29Can I help you?
00:37:31I'm looking for my mom.
00:37:32I'm looking for my mom.
00:37:33Your mom?
00:37:34Yeah.
00:37:35Margaret Hicks
00:37:36and my daughter, Maya Doyle.
00:37:37Are they inside?
00:37:38Oh, yes, ma'am.
00:37:40Let me go get them.
00:37:42No way.
00:37:43They're actually in there?
00:37:44I asked Grant to keep an eye on them
00:37:45and he stashed them in a mansion.
00:37:47What did he do?
00:37:48Rob a bank?
00:37:48Hit the Powerball?
00:37:50Mom's here.
00:37:51Oh, good.
00:37:52You found it.
00:37:56Why are you dressed like that?
00:37:59What are you wearing?
00:38:00Oh, it's my uniform, sweetie.
00:38:03Your uniform?
00:38:04Yeah.
00:38:05We actually asked if we could help out around the place.
00:38:07We didn't want to just sit here doing nothing.
00:38:09Housekeeping, dusting, that sort of thing.
00:38:11Let me get this straight.
00:38:12You're living in a multi-million dollar mansion
00:38:13and you volunteer to scrub the floors?
00:38:15Then what's she wearing?
00:38:16I'm the study buddy.
00:38:17Aiden asked me herself.
00:38:19I get to read with the young lady of the house
00:38:20during my break.
00:38:21She's actually really sweet.
00:38:22Hey, we don't pay you to stand around chatting.
00:38:25Hurry up.
00:38:25And you, get back to the study room.
00:38:27Right away, ma'am.
00:38:28Sorry.
00:38:31Hey, you made it.
00:38:33You want hot pot tonight?
00:38:34Oh, oh, wait.
00:38:36I've been out there hauling freight for weeks,
00:38:37breaking my back.
00:38:38And I come home to find my mom and my daughter
00:38:40running around in uniforms in your house.
00:38:42Did you even try to stop them?
00:38:44You've got ten minutes.
00:38:45Start talking.
00:38:45They insisted.
00:38:46I told them they didn't have to.
00:38:47Your mom said she'd go crazy just sitting around
00:38:49and Maya latched on to Aiden the first day.
00:38:50Nine minutes.
00:38:54Maya, help me out.
00:38:55Your mom gets back tomorrow.
00:38:57Do I go with the diamond ring or the necklace?
00:38:59If you want to keep the dad title,
00:39:00you won't buy a single thing.
00:39:02Wait, why?
00:39:02My mom despises liars.
00:39:04If she finds out you've been faking
00:39:05this whole poor guy routine,
00:39:06you're dead meat.
00:39:08I need to save.
00:39:09Fast.
00:39:10Sweetheart, don't be mad at him.
00:39:11I was just going stragrazy at home.
00:39:12Figured I'd pick up a few shifts,
00:39:13help out with the groceries.
00:39:14Exactly.
00:39:14And I'm just here for the academics.
00:39:15Tutoring rich kids is basically my hobby.
00:39:17Grant's been working himself to the bone, Claire.
00:39:19Taking every delivery job he can get,
00:39:20sweating through his shirts
00:39:21just to save up a few bucks.
00:39:22Save up.
00:39:22Save up for what?
00:39:23I'm the one keeping the lights on.
00:39:30To buy you this.
00:39:35You bought this for me?
00:39:37We kind of skipped the whole wedding part.
00:39:38You still deserve the rock.
00:39:40Grant, what were you thinking?
00:39:41We can't afford this kind of luxury.
00:39:44Okay, I'm not going to lie.
00:39:46It looks incredible.
00:39:47How much was it?
00:39:49Wasn't bad.
00:39:50Two grand.
00:39:51Two grand?
00:39:52Are you out of your mind?
00:39:53That's a fortune!
00:39:55If I told her it was 20 million,
00:39:56she'd literally skin me alive.
00:39:58Yeah, for my own survival,
00:40:00the billionaire secret stays in the vault.
00:40:01You're an idiot,
00:40:03but you're my idiot.
00:40:04Don't mention it.
00:40:05Whatever you want,
00:40:06I'll get it for you.
00:40:08Dad!
00:40:08I cleared out the recycling
00:40:09for the whole block!
00:40:10Oh my God!
00:40:11You sent the poor kid out
00:40:12to dig through the trash?
00:40:13We are taking this bit way too far.
00:40:15Hey, hey,
00:40:16it's honest work.
00:40:17As long as we all pull our weight
00:40:18and stick together,
00:40:19this family is going to be just fine.
00:40:21You're right.
00:40:22We're going to make it work.
00:40:26Oh, thank God,
00:40:27Mr. Grant Whitmore.
00:40:28Please, sir,
00:40:28I'm begging you.
00:40:29Just give Starlight Group
00:40:30one chance to partner with you.
00:40:33You called him?
00:40:35Grant Whitmore?
00:40:37Look, Claire,
00:40:38I'm kind of a legend
00:40:39in the freight game.
00:40:39Independent contractor,
00:40:40basically the CEO
00:40:41of Lifting Heavy Things.
00:40:42The CEO of Lifting.
00:40:43Right.
00:40:43So what was that partnership
00:40:44he was just begging you for?
00:40:45Oh, that?
00:40:46He's got a massive warehouse clear out,
00:40:48needs the best back in the business,
00:40:49had to track me down personally.
00:40:50He drove a luxury sedan
00:40:51all the way out here
00:40:52just to hire one guy
00:40:52to move boxes.
00:40:53I'm very efficient.
00:40:54Five-star rating.
00:40:55Anyway, you go warm up the truck.
00:40:56I'll lock down the logistics
00:40:57with Mr. Bankerate here.
00:40:58Exactly.
00:40:59So, Mr. Whitmore,
00:41:00we have an agreement
00:41:00on the heavy lifting?
00:41:02You got it.
00:41:03We'll talk boxes tomorrow.
00:41:11I just locked a partnership
00:41:12with Whitmore Group?
00:41:13Hell yes!
00:41:15That shoebox you're renting
00:41:16barely fits a twin bed.
00:41:17Just pack your stuff
00:41:18and bring the kid here.
00:41:19It's a dump,
00:41:20but it beats sleeping
00:41:20on top of each other.
00:41:22I'd like that.
00:41:25Mom,
00:41:26your phone's going off.
00:41:27Ryan Ashford?
00:41:29My dad?
00:41:29What the hell
00:41:30does he want from me now?
00:41:34What do you want?
00:41:35Put Maya on.
00:41:36I didn't call to hear your voice.
00:41:38Feelings mutual.
00:41:41Maya,
00:41:41it's your father.
00:41:45Hi, Dad.
00:41:46Dad?
00:41:47Okay.
00:41:48I'll think about it.
00:41:53Hey,
00:41:53what did he say?
00:41:54Nothing.
00:41:55He's getting married.
00:41:56He wants me at the wedding.
00:41:57The absolute nerve of that man.
00:41:58Spent years drinking his paychecks
00:41:59and gambling away the rent
00:42:00never gave a damn about this girl.
00:42:01Now he wants her playing prop
00:42:02at his shiny new wedding?
00:42:03Look at me.
00:42:03Do you want to go?
00:42:05No.
00:42:06You sure?
00:42:07Because if you want to go,
00:42:07I'm taking you.
00:42:09We'll walk right in there
00:42:09and see exactly what kind of trash life
00:42:11your deadbeat dad
00:42:11is living these days.
00:42:13Okay.
00:42:14Good.
00:42:15Get back to your homework.
00:42:24Well, well.
00:42:26If it isn't my lovely ex-wife, Claire,
00:42:29did you get lost
00:42:30on your way to the trailer pack?
00:42:32Babe, who is this?
00:42:33Allow me to introduce
00:42:34my beautiful wife, Sloane.
00:42:36And Sloane, this is Claire,
00:42:37the tomboy and ex I told you about.
00:42:39Oh, the truck driver.
00:42:40Wow.
00:42:41You really went all out
00:42:42for a wedding, didn't you?
00:42:43Love the casual look.
00:42:44I didn't send you an invite, Claire.
00:42:45Figured seeing me upgrade
00:42:46to someone this gorgeous
00:42:47would just be too hard on you.
00:42:48Didn't want you getting jealous.
00:42:49Don't flatter yourself, Ryan.
00:42:50You aren't the only one
00:42:51who moved on.
00:42:52I just got remarried myself.
00:42:53The only reason I stepped foot
00:42:54in this circus
00:42:54is because my daughter
00:42:55wanted to come.
00:42:56Dad?
00:42:57Well, look at you.
00:42:59You've gotten so tall, Maya.
00:43:00Hang on a second.
00:43:01Here.
00:43:02Daddy got you a special present.
00:43:04I don't even like cars,
00:43:05but he actually got me something.
00:43:07He still cares.
00:43:09Thank you, Dad.
00:43:10Hey!
00:43:11Why does she have my own junk?
00:43:12I threw that in the trash!
00:43:20Hey, buddy.
00:43:21It's okay.
00:43:22You know what, Maya?
00:43:23You didn't even like
00:43:23this clunky old thing anyway, right?
00:43:24Tell you what.
00:43:25Daddy will get you
00:43:25the brand new model next week.
00:43:26We'll just let him keep this one.
00:43:27But you said you went to the store
00:43:28and picked it out just for me.
00:43:30I did.
00:43:31And your brother, Tansy,
00:43:32barely even touched the box.
00:43:33It's basically brand new.
00:43:37Unbelievable.
00:43:37For a second there,
00:43:38I actually thought you were
00:43:38trying to be a real father today,
00:43:39but you're just palling off
00:43:40his hand-me-down trash
00:43:41on your own kid.
00:43:41Oh, please.
00:43:42She should be grateful
00:43:43she's getting anything.
00:43:43I hear that new guy
00:43:44you're dragging around
00:43:44hauls boxes for a living.
00:43:45A toy like this is what
00:43:46half-fored it.
00:43:46Beggars can't be choosers, Claire.
00:43:47What my husband makes
00:43:48is none of your business.
00:43:49But you, Ryan,
00:43:50you abandon your actual
00:43:51flesh and blood
00:43:51just to play daddy to a kid.
00:43:52What, he takes your last name
00:43:53and father of the year?
00:43:54And you think you can toss
00:43:54my daughter his garbage
00:43:55like it's charity?
00:43:56Keep your voice down, Claire.
00:43:57Watch your mouth.
00:43:57Oh, I haven't even started.
00:43:59You should be on your knees
00:44:00thanking me it's your wedding day
00:44:01or I'd air out exactly...
00:44:02You're just gonna stand there?
00:44:03He's terrorizing your daughter
00:44:04and you do nothing.
00:44:05Careful, buddy.
00:44:06Don't hurt your foot on that junk.
00:44:07Daddy promises.
00:44:08From now on,
00:44:09even your garbage stays yours.
00:44:11Nobody else gets it.
00:44:12My daddy buys me
00:44:12whatever I want.
00:44:13You don't even have one.
00:44:15Mr. Whitfield,
00:44:16are you absolutely sure
00:44:17you shouldn't be
00:44:18at that wedding with him?
00:44:19She's facing her
00:44:20biological father today.
00:44:21It's not my place to intrude.
00:44:23But the guy's a piece of work.
00:44:25He treats that little girl
00:44:26like dirt.
00:44:27You don't understand
00:44:27how blood works, Dean.
00:44:28It leaves a mark.
00:44:29No matter how much he fails
00:44:30or in her heart,
00:44:31he's still the man
00:44:31who gave her life.
00:44:32Nobody gets to just
00:44:33umberride that,
00:44:34not even me.
00:44:34Oh, don't look so sour.
00:44:36The boy's just telling the truth.
00:44:37Poor little orphan.
00:44:38You think that new guy
00:44:39your mom dragged in
00:44:40actually cares about you?
00:44:41You're not his blood.
00:44:42Give it a month
00:44:42and he'll kick you out
00:44:43to beg on the street.
00:44:44You're right.
00:44:44I shouldn't hit a child.
00:44:47Are you out of your mind?
00:44:48You just hit me?
00:44:50Talk to my kid
00:44:51like that again.
00:44:53See what I do.
00:44:55Are you just gonna stand there?
00:44:57Do something about this psycho!
00:44:58What is wrong with you, Claire?
00:45:00Always with the hands.
00:45:01You're completely uncraned.
00:45:02Kicking you to the curb
00:45:03was the best move
00:45:04I ever made.
00:45:05Best move you made?
00:45:06Let's get the history straight, Ryan.
00:45:07You were drowning in poker debt,
00:45:09bleeding my paychecks dried.
00:45:10You didn't leave.
00:45:12I threw your deadbeat ass out.
00:45:14Wait, he was broke?
00:45:16I thought he was old money.
00:45:18You're lying!
00:45:19Shut your mouth
00:45:20and apologize to my wife
00:45:22right now!
00:45:23I'll apologize
00:45:24the second you two
00:45:25apologize to Maya.
00:45:27In her dreams!
00:45:28You laid hands on me, Claire.
00:45:31You're gonna pay for this.
00:45:33Whoa, watch out!
00:45:35That's the VIP reserve
00:45:36from the penthouse!
00:45:37It's a six million dollar bottle!
00:45:47What is wrong with you, Claire?
00:45:50You just wrecked
00:45:51the hotel's entire display!
00:45:53Hey, buddy.
00:45:53How much was that thing, anyway?
00:45:58Six million dollars.
00:46:02Six million?
00:46:03What's in it?
00:46:04Unicorn tears?
00:46:06For grape juice?
00:46:08Right this way, Mr. Ellingston.
00:46:10Your 82 Lafotte
00:46:11is perfectly secure.
00:46:12We're having it brought up
00:46:13to your private suite now.
00:46:16I whine.
00:46:17This is your idea
00:46:18of perfectly secure?
00:46:20Mr. Ellingston, please.
00:46:21I am so sorry.
00:46:22If you'll just head up
00:46:23to the suite,
00:46:23I swear I will handle
00:46:24this immediately.
00:46:26Find out!
00:46:27Who did this?
00:46:28Her!
00:46:29She knocked the whole tray over!
00:46:30We all saw it!
00:46:31Exactly.
00:46:32It was all her.
00:46:33My mom didn't do it.
00:46:35She was pushed!
00:46:39Security!
00:46:40Pull the footage.
00:46:41Now!
00:46:43Security!
00:46:44Pull the overhead feed
00:46:46to this tablet right now.
00:46:49Wait, what?
00:46:50That's not how this
00:46:51is supposed to work.
00:46:52Oh, come on.
00:46:53Is that really necessary?
00:46:54Those lenses are always
00:46:55blurry anyway.
00:46:56You have 50 eyewitnesses
00:46:57right here who saw her smash it.
00:46:58Exactly.
00:46:59Don't waste Mr. Ellingston's time
00:47:01with technical difficulties.
00:47:02We all know who did it.
00:47:03I think we have time
00:47:04for a quick movie.
00:47:05What?
00:47:06You think I'm some
00:47:07brain-dead soap opera villain
00:47:08who refuses to look
00:47:09at the actual evidence?
00:47:11Play the tape.
00:47:20Crystal clear.
00:47:21You tripped the waiter.
00:47:22She hit the rack.
00:47:23Shared liability.
00:47:24Three million dollars each.
00:47:26Six million total.
00:47:27We take wire transfers.
00:47:31Congratulations.
00:47:32You played yourself.
00:47:33Three hundred thousand
00:47:34is insane.
00:47:36Come on.
00:47:36There has to be some kind
00:47:37of discount for a miser
00:47:38standing like this.
00:47:39Big talker suddenly
00:47:40lost his wallet.
00:47:41Swipe the card, Ryan.
00:47:42We're getting bored.
00:47:43Shut your mouth, Claire.
00:47:44You think this is funny?
00:47:45You're on the hook
00:47:46for the exact same amount.
00:47:48So?
00:47:48I'll pay the second you do.
00:47:50Worst case,
00:47:51we share a sell.
00:47:52I am done negotiating.
00:47:54You pay right now
00:47:55or I dial 911
00:47:56and the police
00:47:57can explain the bill to you.
00:47:58No.
00:47:58No cops.
00:47:59I got it.
00:47:59Here.
00:48:04Transaction approved.
00:48:06Three hundred thousand cleared.
00:48:09You actually had
00:48:10that kind of cash
00:48:11sitting around?
00:48:14Damn right I do.
00:48:15Since I dumped you,
00:48:16I've actually been able
00:48:17to build real wealth.
00:48:18Three hundred thousand?
00:48:19I'll make that back in a year.
00:48:21Your turn, sweetheart.
00:48:23Let's see you match it.
00:48:25How will you be settling
00:48:26your three hundred thousand?
00:48:27Card or wire?
00:48:37You said you'd pay
00:48:38if we paid, Claire.
00:48:39We just cleared our tab.
00:48:41Time to pony up.
00:48:42Just give me a second.
00:48:45Forty-two bucks.
00:48:46Right.
00:48:46Let me just pull
00:48:47three million dollars
00:48:47out of thin air.
00:48:48What's the holder?
00:48:49We don't have all day
00:48:50for you to count your pennies.
00:48:52You know what?
00:48:53I'm tapping out.
00:48:55Grant, it's mom.
00:48:56You need to get here
00:48:57right now.
00:49:01I can't pay it.
00:49:02Take me to jail.
00:49:03Mom, no!
00:49:07Hey, look at me.
00:49:09While I'm in there,
00:49:10you do your homework, okay?
00:49:11Make sure you actually
00:49:12eat your dinner.
00:49:12I'll do my time
00:49:13and come right back to you.
00:49:14Be good.
00:49:26Grant, what are you doing here?
00:49:29You were really going to let them
00:49:31haul you off to jail
00:49:31before calling your own husband?
00:49:35Thank God someone in this family
00:49:36knows how to use a phone.
00:49:39This is the new guy?
00:49:40Look at him.
00:49:41He's got less in his pockets
00:49:42than you do, Claire.
00:49:43What's a guy in a dirty shirt
00:49:44going to do to save you?
00:49:46You'd be surprised
00:49:47what I can do.
00:49:48Grant, stop.
00:49:49The wine we broke,
00:49:50it's three million dollars.
00:49:52I said I've got it.
00:49:54Who owns the bottle?
00:49:56Mr. Victor Ellenson
00:49:57of Star Group.
00:49:59Star Group.
00:50:00Perfect.
00:50:01Where is he?
00:50:03The VIP room down the hall.
00:50:08Give me a minute.
00:50:09I'll be right back.
00:50:11As if the CEO of Star Group
00:50:13is going to give a day laborer
00:50:15the time of day.
00:50:16Let him dig his own grave.
00:50:18I can't wait to see
00:50:19how this plays out.
00:50:21He's been in there
00:50:22way too long.
00:50:23Why hasn't he come out?
00:50:24Take a breath, Mom.
00:50:25It's just three guys.
00:50:26Grant's probably wrapping
00:50:27it up right now.
00:50:29Wrapping it up?
00:50:30Please.
00:50:31He's probably on his hands
00:50:32and knees in there
00:50:32begging them not to break his legs.
00:50:34That's the reality
00:50:35of being broke, Claire.
00:50:37When you can't afford the check
00:50:38you pay with your dignity.
00:50:41Oh, hell no.
00:50:42You can push me around
00:50:43all you want
00:50:43but nobody humiliates my man.
00:50:45Please, gentlemen.
00:50:47Three million is impossible.
00:50:48I don't have a dime to my name.
00:50:50Have mercy!
00:50:57Mom?
00:50:59We are not missing this.
00:51:01Come on.
00:51:07Grant!
00:51:08Grant!
00:51:08I'm getting you out of here!
00:51:10Grant!
00:51:11I got you!
00:51:11Hang on!
00:51:12What the hell is going on in here?
00:51:13Hey, nothing crazy.
00:51:14Just having a little heart-to-heart
00:51:15with the guys.
00:51:16Turns out they're incredibly reasonable.
00:51:17They decided to waive the damages entirely.
00:51:18Isn't that right, gentlemen?
00:51:19Absolutely.
00:51:19Mr. Whitmore here.
00:51:20He really put things in perspective for me.
00:51:21Opened my eyes.
00:51:22I pull in eight figures a year
00:51:22throwing a tantrum over three million.
00:51:24It's embarrassing.
00:51:24Completely petty of me.
00:51:25One hundred percent.
00:51:26Ms. Doyles, we are so incredibly sorry
00:51:28for the misunderstanding.
00:51:29Are you kidding me?
00:51:30She gets a free pass?
00:51:31What about the three million
00:51:32we just wired you?
00:51:33Yeah, Craig.
00:51:34Since everybody's in such a forgiving mood today,
00:51:35we'll just take our refund now.
00:51:38A refund?
00:51:39Right.
00:51:40Of course.
00:51:42Not a chance in hell.
00:51:43A refund?
00:51:44Not a chance.
00:51:45Consider that three million
00:51:46an educational expense.
00:51:48Maybe it'll teach your wife
00:51:49to keep her hands to herself.
00:51:50Are you kidding me?
00:51:51Why do they get a free pass?
00:51:52Shut your mouth!
00:51:53You want them to come after us
00:51:54for the full six million?
00:51:55Drop it!
00:51:56Everything's settled.
00:51:57Let's get out of here.
00:51:58I'll be damned.
00:51:59I guess some of these corporate guys
00:52:00actually have a conscience.
00:52:01Just wipe three million off the board
00:52:03like it was nothing.
00:52:03Maya, wait!
00:52:04Ryan Ashford,
00:52:05what the hell do you want now?
00:52:07I just want a minute with my girl.
00:52:08Maya, honey, listen to me.
00:52:09Next time I see you,
00:52:10I'll buy you that brand new toy you wanted.
00:52:11The really expensive one, okay?
00:52:12I don't play with toys anymore.
00:52:14And I already have a dad now.
00:52:15He gets me whatever I need.
00:52:17Keep your money for your new baby.
00:52:18I don't want it.
00:52:20Let's go home, Dad.
00:52:21You got it.
00:52:23Let's go.
00:52:23You ghosted her for her entire childhood, Ryan?
00:52:26Nobody waits around forever.
00:52:27Not even your own flesh and blood.
00:52:29She's gone.
00:52:30Way too close.
00:52:31We were about five seconds away
00:52:33from getting blacklisted
00:52:34by the entire Whitmore group.
00:52:35You're telling me,
00:52:36why the hell does a guy
00:52:36who owns half the industry
00:52:37dress like a day laborer?
00:52:38Must be some kind of weird
00:52:39roleplay thing with a wife.
00:52:45Hey, back there in the room,
00:52:47did you really mean it
00:52:48when you called me Dad?
00:52:50Well, yeah.
00:52:51You're my dad, aren't you?
00:52:54Yes!
00:52:56You've been a father for 10 years.
00:52:58Try to play it cool.
00:52:59You don't get it.
00:53:00A decade with a boy is one thing.
00:53:01A little girl calling me Dad,
00:53:03a whole new ballgame.
00:53:05Dad, can you buy me something?
00:53:07Anything.
00:53:08Name your price, kiddo.
00:53:09The sky's the limit.
00:53:10Ten full sets of the state-standardized prep exams,
00:53:13the thick ones with the answer keys in the back.
00:53:15Uh, what?
00:53:17Your mom didn't show up again, Aiden.
00:53:19Are you sure you even have one?
00:53:23Aiden!
00:53:26Mom!
00:53:26My mom is here!
00:53:27Mom!
00:53:29Finished my route early.
00:53:31Figured I'd come grab you.
00:53:34Delivery for you.
00:53:36No way!
00:53:36Dad never lets me eat stuff from the street carts.
00:53:38He says it's a health code violation.
00:53:40Please.
00:53:41A little street dirt builds the immune system.
00:53:43Try it.
00:53:43It's pure sugar.
00:53:48Aiden?
00:53:49Is that your mom?
00:53:50Yep.
00:53:51She drove her truck straight from work to get me,
00:53:53and she bought me this.
00:53:57Place looks like a literal palace.
00:53:59What do they even teach you in there?
00:54:00How to be royalties?
00:54:02Half those words are in Latin.
00:54:03Who reads Latin anymore?
00:54:04Dad says it's an exclusive academy for the global elite.
00:54:09The global elite, huh?
00:54:11Tell your dad to lay off the sci-fi movies.
00:54:14Claire?
00:54:16Claire Doyle?
00:54:17Oh my God, is that really you?
00:54:21Diane Sullivan?
00:54:22It's been what, 10 years?
00:54:24You look exactly the...
00:54:25Well, you look exactly the same.
00:54:29Wait.
00:54:30Your kid goes here?
00:54:32Claire, this is an elite academy.
00:54:34Base tuition alone is $2 million a year.
00:54:37A dock worker doesn't...
00:54:38I mean, that doesn't...
00:54:39How is that possible?
00:54:40Who's actually paying for this?
00:54:42Wait.
00:54:43$2 million?
00:54:43Base.
00:54:44Add in the meal plans, the equestrian fees,
00:54:46the mandatory annual fund.
00:54:48You're looking at over $3 million a year.
00:54:49$3 million?
00:54:52Okay, Diane, very funny.
00:54:53You trying to scare the Blue Calls girl?
00:54:55Is this a joke?
00:54:56$3 million.
00:54:58What kind of school costs $3 million?
00:55:00My husband and I couldn't make that kind of money
00:55:02if we worked for eight lifetimes.
00:55:03Eight lifetimes, Diane!
00:55:10Hey, you're back late.
00:55:11I saved you some...
00:55:12$3 million.
00:55:15What?
00:55:16$3 million, Grant.
00:55:18A year.
00:55:19That's what Aiden's school costs.
00:55:21I ran into an old friend at the gates today.
00:55:23She knows the place.
00:55:25I know about the roles.
00:55:26I've seen Skyline Estates.
00:55:29I've been telling myself there was some explanation I wasn't ready to ask for,
00:55:32but $3 million a year for a school?
00:55:34I need you to say it out loud, right now.
00:55:36Claire, sit down.
00:55:37Don't tell me to sit down.
00:55:39Say it!
00:55:42The school belongs to me.
00:55:44The car is mine.
00:55:45The estate is mine.
00:55:47All of it.
00:55:48I knew something was off.
00:55:50I just didn't want to believe how far off it was.
00:55:53I hid the daily reality of it because I had to know if someone could love me and Aiden for
00:55:57nothing.
00:55:58Just us.
00:55:59My world is full of people chasing the Whitmore name.
00:56:03You still lied.
00:56:05Every single day.
00:56:07You watched me haul 200-pound crates in the freezing rain.
00:56:10You let me budget groceries down to the penny so I could buy you new work boots.
00:56:15And the whole time...
00:56:16I thought we were building something real from the dirt up.
00:56:19I thought we were in this together.
00:56:22We are.
00:56:22Mommy, don't hit him.
00:56:25Daddy didn't mean to be bad.
00:56:27He just wanted a real mommy for me.
00:56:29The other ladies only liked his big cars and his money.
00:56:32He really did carry those heavy boxes with you.
00:56:36His hands bled for a whole week.
00:56:38He said it was worth it because you bought him a Band-Aid.
00:56:43You carried cargo for 12 hours a day.
00:56:45Knowing what was waiting for you at Skyline Estates.
00:56:48Knowing what that car cost.
00:56:50I would have carried them for the rest of my life if it meant keeping you.
00:57:00Are you guys done?
00:57:01My ribs are getting flattened.
00:57:03And does this mean I don't have to go on any more terrible blind dates for you?
00:57:07Yeah, kid.
00:57:08Your max-making days are officially over.
00:57:11Claire.
00:57:12There's one more thing.
00:57:13And it's not about the money.
00:57:15What now?
00:57:16You own the moon too?
00:57:17It's about Aiden.
00:57:19His birth mother was a Vandergruf.
00:57:20The eldest daughter of the main bloodline.
00:57:23She died the night he was born.
00:57:24Vandergruf?
00:57:26Wait, like the guys who own half the real estate on the coast?
00:57:28Yes.
00:57:29And for 10 years, they've been hunting for their only blood heir.
00:57:33I built the Whitmore Empire to be a wall between him and them.
00:57:36I went off the grid, played the dock worker to keep us completely off their radar.
00:57:40But they found you anyway.
00:57:41The text I just got.
00:57:42They're initiating formal custody proceedings.
00:57:44But it's not Brett Vandergruf pulling the strings.
00:57:46Brett is a lapdog.
00:57:47Then who?
00:57:49Margaret Vandergruf.
00:57:50The matriarch.
00:57:51She operates entirely in the shadows.
00:57:53She's holding Brate's family shares hostage, forcing him to do the dirty work and rip Aiden
00:57:57out of my house.
00:57:58I hid to give my son a normal life.
00:58:00But if Margaret thinks she can use her leverage to take what's mine, I will tear the Vandergruf
00:58:05family down to the studs.
00:58:06Claire.
00:58:07Listen to me, Whitmore.
00:58:08I didn't marry a billionaire for the cash.
00:58:10I don't care about your bank accounts.
00:58:12But this is my kid now, too.
00:58:14And if some shadow-dwelling rich lady thinks she can steal him, I'll drive my 18-wheeler
00:58:19straight through her front gates.
00:58:28Grant.
00:58:29You have exactly three seconds to get off my property before I break your legs.
00:58:34It wasn't my idea.
00:58:35I didn't want to come here, I swear to God.
00:58:40It's Margaret.
00:58:41It wasn't me.
00:58:42I didn't want to come here.
00:58:43It's Margaret.
00:58:45You have three seconds to give me a name before I break your jaw.
00:58:48One.
00:58:49Margaret!
00:58:49It's Margaret Vandergruf.
00:58:52She froze my account.
00:58:54She dug up the offshore discrepancies from five years ago and threatened to take my branch's
00:58:57equity to zero.
00:58:58I had no choice.
00:58:59She doesn't give a damn about family bloodlines or bringing the boy home.
00:59:02Then what does she want?
00:59:03The inheritance rights.
00:59:05If she gets legal custody of Aiden, she controls his proxy vote.
00:59:07She'll use his shares to trigger a total asset restructure and gut the rest of the family.
00:59:11It's a hostile takeover disguised as a custody suit.
00:59:16The dummy accounts are all in there.
00:59:18I'm dead if she finds out I came here.
00:59:24Let him go.
00:59:25Get inside.
00:59:29Shell Companies.
00:59:31She's been bleeding the Vandergrufs of Pivites dry for months to build a war chest.
00:59:34If she gets Aiden's proxy, she legalizes the theft.
00:59:37She's moving capital on paper.
00:59:38But you can't fake the physical supply chain at this volume.
00:59:41Hundreds of millions then.
00:59:42I drove freight for ten years.
00:59:44If Margaret is shifting hundreds of millions in assets to dummy corps, the actual inventory
00:59:47has to move too.
00:59:48Otherwise, the IRS abides the empty warehouses and she goes to federal prison.
00:59:52You think she left a paper trail on the road?
00:59:53I know she did.
00:59:54Three years ago, Vandergruf Logistics had a massive routing anomaly on the East Coast.
00:59:58Cash under the table, no questions asked.
01:00:03I kept copies of every digital manifest I ever hauled.
01:00:06If she was moving ghost inventory, the wait stations and port authorities won't match.
01:00:14Got it.
01:00:15A Class A freight manifest.
01:00:17Fifty containers routed to a shell facility in Delaware.
01:00:20Goods that should have cleared customs, but the port registry is blank.
01:00:22Someone bypassed the port authority and signed for the transfer manually.
01:00:26Who?
01:00:26The signature is just one letter.
01:00:28It's G.
01:00:36G.
01:00:36As in Grant.
01:00:38Fifty containers, bypassed customs, shipped straight to a shell company in Delaware.
01:00:42And signed for by someone with enough power to make the port authority look the other way.
01:00:45You want to tell me something, Grant?
01:00:47Look at the authorization code.
01:00:50044.
01:00:51What does that mean?
01:00:52It's a Vandergruf executive override.
01:00:54I haven't had access to that tier of their network in ten years.
01:00:57But you know who does?
01:01:00Margaret.
01:01:01She didn't just smuggle family assets to line her own pockets.
01:01:04She forged my initial.
01:01:05If the feds ever audited this warehouse, the paper trail points straight to me.
01:01:08She gets the money, I get the prison sentence.
01:01:11She thought she covered all her bases.
01:01:13Too bad she didn't know my network keeps offline hard copies of every class A run.
01:01:19She wants to play dirty for your kid?
01:01:21Let's show her what a real truck driver can do.
01:01:23Print every single page.
01:01:25It's time for a family reunion.
01:01:31I called a family hearing, Grant.
01:01:33Why did you bring the hired help?
01:01:35We don't let the staff track mud on the Persian rugs.
01:01:38Mud washes out.
01:01:40Not sure what you're going to do about that personality of yours, though.
01:01:42You have a lot of nerve for a woman who hauls freight for a living.
01:01:46Aiden, darling, come here.
01:01:48Look at this house.
01:01:50Look at the art on the walls.
01:01:52You are a Vandergruth.
01:01:54You have royal blood in your veins.
01:01:56You belong in high society.
01:01:58Not riding shotgun in a diesel truck with a woman who buys her clothes at a gas station.
01:02:02At your feet.
01:02:04Come to your real family.
01:02:06You'll have trust funds, private jets, the entire world at your feet.
01:02:16You have a lot of money, and you smell like expensive perfume.
01:02:20Exactly, sweetheart.
01:02:21But it gives me a headache.
01:02:24You didn't buy me my light-up sneakers.
01:02:27She drives a big truck to pick me up from school every day.
01:02:30She makes sure I eat my vegetables even when I don't want to.
01:02:34She doesn't care about my blood.
01:02:36She's my mom, and I'm not going anywhere with you.
01:02:45How incredibly pathetic.
01:02:47Brett, call the legal team right now.
01:02:49We are filing for emergency custody.
01:02:51I'll have this truck-driving trash thrown in a cell for kidnapping by morning.
01:02:55Brett!
01:02:56Did you hear me?
01:02:57Call them!
01:02:58No.
01:02:59Excuse me?
01:03:01The inheritance or your freedom.
01:03:03Pick one, Margaret Vandergrift.
01:03:07Aiden, I'm your family.
01:03:08You belong with us, not with some truck driver.
01:03:10She's my mom.
01:03:11You're just a lady who yells a lot.
01:03:14It's over.
01:03:15Sign the relinquation.
01:03:16I already gave them the rest of the files.
01:03:18You sold me out?
01:03:19I stopped digging my own grave.
01:03:29I'm stepping down from the subsidiary.
01:03:30I'm done with the games, Grant.
01:03:32Keep your shares, Brett.
01:03:33Just stay out of the driver's seat.
01:03:35Understood.
01:03:37Let's make this official for the record.
01:03:39This is Claire and my wife and Aiden's mother.
01:03:43Anyone who has a problem with that can leave their key card on the table.
01:03:46Don't mess this up.
01:03:47You step on my shoes, I'm putting hot sauce in your juice box.
01:03:50You're my sister now.
01:03:52You have to be nice to me.
01:03:54Keep dreaming, Squirt.
01:03:55Let's go.
01:03:59You okay?
01:04:01Better than okay.
01:04:02Though I still think we overpaid for the flowers.
01:04:04I'll write it off as a business expense.
01:04:08You know what Margaret Vandegris never understood?
01:04:11I didn't need her money, her boardrooms, or her approval.
01:04:14I fought for my kid and I fought for this family.
01:04:16I'd do it again tomorrow without blinking.
01:04:18I know.
01:04:20That's why I'm standing here.
01:04:21Good answer.
01:04:22Now put the ring on before I change my mind.
01:04:24I don't want to change my mind.
01:04:24I don't want to change my mind.
01:04:26I don't want to change my mind.
