00:00:00Olivia.
00:00:03Dad, you must go to Aunt Lana's matchmaking event.
00:00:06Alright, alright, I know, I'm on my way.
00:00:09Tommy, delay the presentation, I have to go to a matchmaking event.
00:00:13A matchmaking event? Of course.
00:00:16And sir, we found out designer Amber, she's not the one who saved you back then.
00:00:21You were right, she's been deceiving you.
00:00:30Oh man, I just saw Marilyn Monroe.
00:00:48Oh no, this isn't good.
00:00:51Oh my god, I'm so sorry, are you alright? I really didn't mean to.
00:00:55I'm fine.
00:00:56I'm terribly sorry. I'll tell you what, this car is yours for today.
00:00:59Wherever you need to go, I'll take you.
00:01:02I really am running late for the matchmaking event.
00:01:06Okay, could you take me to Moonshadow Cafe, 5th Street?
00:01:11What a coincidence. That's the same address Olivia sent me.
00:01:16Please.
00:01:29Hey, thank you for the lovely ride.
00:01:40To Central Avenue now.
00:01:42We need to leave now, I'm in a rush.
00:01:44Come on, don't go, let's go.
00:01:46We could get married, but first you must have two more children for me.
00:02:01Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:03I could still have...
00:02:04Good luck, good luck. Take care.
00:02:06Right here?
00:02:07Right here.
00:02:11Hi.
00:02:12Hi.
00:02:13We could get married, but first I'd have to discuss this with my boyfriend.
00:02:19And we would need to sign a prenuptial agreement.
00:02:23I love your dress.
00:02:25I've had enough.
00:02:27Never mind.
00:02:28It's you.
00:02:31What a surprise.
00:02:34It's you.
00:02:36What a surprise.
00:02:38Allow me to introduce myself properly.
00:02:40I'm Alaric.
00:02:41Alaric Miller.
00:02:43Olivia's father.
00:02:45It is great to see you again, Alaric Miller.
00:02:48I am Lana Cooper.
00:02:51Please, take a seat.
00:02:54I'm truly pleased to meet you, Lana Cooper.
00:02:56I actually came here today to thank you personally.
00:02:59Octavia told me about the allergic shock incident and you stepped in to help.
00:03:03Yeah, Olivia, she is a good girl.
00:03:05You know, whether or not I had been there that day, I am sure God would have sent someone to take care of her.
00:03:11Regardless, I'm very grateful.
00:03:13Olivia means a lot to me.
00:03:15She's actually my adopted child.
00:03:16I've never married, it's just always been her and me.
00:03:22Octavia, I missed you so much.
00:03:24Are you free tonight?
00:03:26Octavia.
00:03:31Listen, alright?
00:03:32You got two choices.
00:03:34Pay up, or go with the boss.
00:03:43No!
00:03:45No, no, no!
00:03:47Get out of here!
00:03:48No!
00:03:50Get out of here!
00:03:51No!
00:03:52No!
00:03:53No!
00:03:57Lana, how dare you do to know a man behind my back.
00:04:00What am I going to do with you, huh?
00:04:02Sir, mind your behavior.
00:04:04Who the hell are you?
00:04:06This is my woman.
00:04:07Get it?
00:04:08I don't care who you are.
00:04:09Lana doesn't like you.
00:04:11Rick, we have been divorced now for five years.
00:04:14Why are you still harassing me?
00:04:17You...
00:04:18You stole so much money from me, you betrayed me!
00:04:20You're a scumbag!
00:04:22You dumb bitch!
00:04:23You dumb bitch!
00:04:25Listen!
00:04:26If you ever bother her again, I'll make you regret being born.
00:04:35Are you okay?
00:04:37Did he hurt you?
00:04:38I just...
00:04:40I don't know what I can...
00:04:42Thank you?
00:04:43You don't need to do anything.
00:04:45Don't you remember, you saved my daughter's life.
00:04:47I don't need anything in return.
00:04:49I'm just glad to be able to protect somebody important to me.
00:04:54Don't worry.
00:04:56It will pass.
00:05:03Will you marry me?
00:05:04Will you marry me?
00:05:21Dad?
00:05:23You should meet Elena.
00:05:25She's a really nice person.
00:05:26She saved me.
00:05:28And refused any rewards.
00:05:30She wouldn't even take the money.
00:05:31Are you sure it wasn't because she didn't offer her enough?
00:05:33And she wasn't interested in your little gesture.
00:05:36No way.
00:05:37She doesn't seem like she cares about it at all.
00:05:40Dad, once you meet her, I promise, I'll stop nagging you about getting married.
00:05:50Was I too impulsive just now?
00:05:52I have no other choice.
00:05:54Maybe I should be braver and give it one last try.
00:05:57Why?
00:06:01Yes.
00:06:12I do need to get back, though.
00:06:15Tomorrow's dessert stall.
00:06:17It's not ready yet.
00:06:19Cupcakes, they won't bake themselves.
00:06:21And ice cream won't scoop itself in the freezers.
00:06:23Understood.
00:06:24I actually need to get back to have a whole crowd of customers waiting to experience the alaric luxury fantasy adventure.
00:06:29Okay, we'll see you next time, Mr. Fantasy Adventure Alive.
00:06:36Oh.
00:06:37Dad, how come you're back so early? I thought...
00:06:48What are you wearing?
00:06:51Oh, my God!
00:06:53You're married?
00:06:55To Aunt Lana?
00:06:57That's wonderful. I'm so happy for you.
00:06:59I told her I drove a taxi. She didn't mind at all.
00:07:01I told you so. So, why don't you plan to tell her your real identity?
00:07:07Oh, let's wait a little bit. Driving a taxi isn't so bad.
00:07:10Mmm...
00:07:24Where's my money, bitch?
00:07:26Huh?
00:07:27Listen, I don't have any money left, okay? And I'm married now, so...
00:07:33You're married? To that taxi driver from today? We'll just get the money from him, then.
00:07:37No, he doesn't have the kind of money you're looking for, okay?
00:07:39Then why did you marry that poor bastard, huh?
00:07:42Listen, Lana, you don't get it, do you? You don't get it.
00:07:45I don't care where you get the money from, okay?
00:07:48What's yours is mine. You owe me.
00:07:50Or I will take it, okay?
00:07:52No! No, please don't! Please don't!
00:07:55Please don't! Please don't!
00:07:59What are you doing? I'm gonna call my mom!
00:08:02Oh, look. It's an old bastard you raised. Come to protect you.
00:08:06Listen up, punk. Your mom has married some poor taxi driver.
00:08:11I don't know what else what he's got. I don't know what he's gonna get from you.
00:08:13Mind your own business. I'm telling you, if you cause any more trouble, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life!
00:08:19Tough girl. Why don't you come over here and show me how you're gonna handle me, huh?
00:08:22I don't need to. I'll just call the police.
00:08:26You got guts, kid!
00:08:29I'm out of here anyway!
00:08:33You owe me!
00:08:36Are you okay, mom?
00:08:38Mm-hmm. I'm fine. I'm fine.
00:08:40What's this about you getting married?
00:08:42He doesn't have much money, but he's a good man.
00:08:45What good does that do if he can't support you?
00:08:48Calm down, Ryan, okay? He has a legitimate income.
00:08:51Now that Rick knows we're married, hopefully he just stops bothering us.
00:08:55What are you doing here?
00:08:57Is everything okay?
00:08:59Yeah, yeah. It's, um...
00:09:01Julia. She's pregnant.
00:09:04And we're planning to get married.
00:09:06That's wonderful.
00:09:07Just take good care of her.
00:09:12I will, I will.
00:09:14But, you know, houses are really expensive.
00:09:17Getting married, having a kid, raising a child.
00:09:20It all costs us money.
00:09:24Hang on.
00:09:28This is all the money I've saved.
00:09:29This should get us by for a while.
00:09:33Thank you, mom.
00:09:35You're the best.
00:09:40Maybe I should sell my house.
00:09:44Oh, oh, hey, hey, hey.
00:09:46Hey.
00:09:50This is a top-notch luxury service, especially for you today.
00:09:55You're selling this place?
00:09:56Yeah, I'm making plans for my grandson.
00:09:59Where will you live?
00:10:01Well, that is a great question.
00:10:03I need to start making plans for myself, too.
00:10:06Well, come live with me.
00:10:07We're married, aren't we?
00:10:09Yeah, that kind of a new home is not bad.
00:10:13Feels like, you know, freedom to be able to hit the road any time.
00:10:17That's not what I meant.
00:10:18It's a very open.
00:10:19Yeah, kind of. For now.
00:10:24Please help me find a smaller apartment. Nothing too fancy.
00:10:26Sure.
00:10:28How big do we want? 6,500?
00:10:30No, no, no. Let's keep it simple.
00:10:31How about 650 square feet?
00:10:32For the bathroom, right?
00:10:34The whole apartment should be 650 square feet.
00:10:37Okay.
00:10:39Oh, Tommy, look what you've done.
00:10:40I really can't trust your jokes.
00:10:42I'm not a little bit.
00:10:43I love it.
00:10:44Yeah, kind of. For now.
00:10:46Please help me find a smaller apartment. Nothing too fancy.
00:10:48Sure.
00:10:50How big do we want? 6,500?
00:10:51No, no, no. Let's keep it simple.
00:10:52How about 650 square feet?
00:10:53Okay.
00:10:54Oh, Tommy, look what you've done.
00:10:55I really can't trust your jokes.
00:10:57It's not a friend's place.
00:10:58He's abroad, so we can stay as long as we want.
00:11:01And, uh, about the furniture?
00:11:04Mr. Montgomery, here's the furniture you ordered.
00:11:06Please sign in front.
00:11:08Montgomery?
00:11:10Montgomery?
00:11:11Montgomery?
00:11:13Montgomery?
00:11:15Montgomery?
00:11:17Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:18Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:19Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:20Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:21Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:22Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:23We wish you both a wonderful day.
00:11:27Did he just call you the chairman?
00:11:30Look, they must be mixed up.
00:11:31I'm not the chairman.
00:11:32Well, my friend is.
00:11:33This must be some kind of VIP service.
00:11:38Oh, wow, look at that.
00:11:39Such a nice sergeant.
00:11:46She's perfect.
00:11:48But that outfit, it doesn't do her justice.
00:11:52Oh, no.
00:11:53I forgot the wedding room.
00:11:55So, how's your breakfast?
00:11:57Amazing.
00:11:58Better than any Michelin-style restaurant.
00:12:00Well, you certainly flatter me like you've been to many of them.
00:12:03Oh, well...
00:12:05Oh, um, remember the lunch that I made for you?
00:12:07I need a head to work.
00:12:08Wait.
00:12:09Don't work today.
00:12:10I want to show you something.
00:12:15Oh, no, my heart is beating so fast.
00:12:20It feels so good to be with her.
00:12:33What do you want?
00:12:34A wedding ring.
00:12:35We're just looking.
00:12:41It's way too expensive.
00:12:42Expensive?
00:12:44Expensive?
00:12:45Then don't buy it.
00:12:46This is a top-tier luxury store.
00:12:48Not just anyone can stroll in here.
00:12:50Plus, at your age, why are you even buying wedding rings?
00:12:55We'll take this one.
00:12:58Are you sure?
00:12:59That's part of our latest collection.
00:13:01I'm not sure.
00:13:03We don't allow try-ons.
00:13:05Well, how are we supposed to know if it fits if we can't try it on?
00:13:08Let's just go.
00:13:10Yeah.
00:13:11That's a good idea.
00:13:12We might have better luck at a different store.
00:13:14Is this the kind of service that represents your brand?
00:13:17We're not going to waste our money on stuff like this.
00:13:19Especially considering your situation.
00:13:20Let's just save our money for...
00:13:23A pair of poppers.
00:13:25Just look at the poverty-stricken air about you.
00:13:27Nearly having you here makes our air feel cheap.
00:13:31What did you just say?
00:13:32Say that again.
00:13:33If you can't afford it, just say so.
00:13:36Why pretend to be rich?
00:13:37How do you know what I can afford?
00:13:39Show us your credit card.
00:13:44Open your eyes and look closely.
00:13:49Open your eyes and look closely.
00:13:54Is this a JPMorgan Reserve card made from 24 karat gold?
00:13:59Only available to super wealthy individuals who have assets at $10 million.
00:14:04How is this possible?
00:14:05I've never seen one of these and I've been working here for years.
00:14:08Is this a fake?
00:14:10Where did you get this?
00:14:12I came prepared.
00:14:14Call your manager over.
00:14:16Who is asking for me?
00:14:21I'm so sorry.
00:14:23I truly didn't expect it to be you.
00:14:26Please forgive me.
00:14:28It's okay. It's okay. You're forgiven.
00:14:30I'm just a regular taxi driver with my newlywed wife looking at wedding rings.
00:14:34Who gave you the audacity to treat our extinct guests rude?
00:14:38Manager, they're just two old folks with no money.
00:14:41Why bother?
00:14:42Shut your mouth.
00:14:43From now on, we're fired.
00:14:45Manager.
00:14:47Hurry everyone.
00:14:48Bring over our finest, most expensive, most dozen jewelry.
00:14:51Sir, Madam, today is the most special in our store. Everything is free. Pick anything you like. We guarantee your satisfaction.
00:15:00In that case, we'll start with the most expensive.
00:15:03Tell your wallet it can relax today.
00:15:16Did you really know that manager?
00:15:18Kind of.
00:15:35Look at you, living in the clouds.
00:15:39You've been with Elena for so long, and you're still not planning for a wedding?
00:15:47Well, Elena told me she doesn't really have any family here, just an adopted son.
00:15:51And you know my current situation is complicated.
00:15:54It's just not the right time for a wedding yet.
00:15:56Plus, she worries about me spending money.
00:15:59And who says weddings have to be luxury and wasteful?
00:16:02You need to put that upper-class mentality away.
00:16:06Plus, Elena doesn't go for that.
00:16:09Then what do you think I should do?
00:16:11Leave it to me.
00:16:13Hey, just remember, you can't call her Aunt Lana anymore.
00:16:17Roger that, boss. It's Mama Lana now.
00:16:25Here you are, like your sweet mama.
00:16:29Oh, my little princess.
00:16:30I do love when you call me Mom.
00:16:34Mom, you will always love me, right?
00:16:36Of course, sweetheart.
00:16:38Just as much as ice cream.
00:16:40I never get tired, but even if I ruined all your makeup?
00:16:43Oh, no, that one depends.
00:16:45But generally, I still love you more.
00:16:47Then, can I keep sneaking chocolates from your fridge?
00:16:52You little devil!
00:16:53But how can I say no to that face?
00:16:57You're the best.
00:16:58And you are my favorite little troublemaker.
00:17:01Mom, come with me.
00:17:03I have a surprise for you.
00:17:04No need.
00:17:05You're the best gift a mom could ask for.
00:17:07Trust me, you're gonna love it.
00:17:09Don't run so fast, my elbows can't keep up.
00:17:12You don't have time. Come on, you have to get changed.
00:17:13This must be a friend's dinner party, right?
00:17:17It's amazing.
00:17:19Not at all.
00:17:21Surprise.
00:17:26Let's go.
00:17:27Friends, family, and dogs, thank you all for coming to witness this blessed union.
00:17:47Now, please, let the couple exchange their vows.
00:17:52I do.
00:17:54I do.
00:17:57This wedding is so tacky.
00:18:11Hey, didn't you see your mom was rich?
00:18:13She told me all of her money went into my education.
00:18:16How can there be enough for such a lavish wedding?
00:18:18Let me tell you this, Ryan.
00:18:20Our wedding has to be ten times more grand.
00:18:22Oh, no, I'm not very good at this.
00:18:28I'll teach you.
00:18:29I love you, my dear.
00:18:30I love you, too.
00:18:31I love you, too.
00:18:33I love you, too.
00:18:34I love you.
00:18:40I love you, too.
00:19:04How did this happen?
00:19:16It's a cut from the shards of glass.
00:19:31From now on, I'll take good care of you.
00:19:34I won't let anybody hurt you again.
00:20:04I'm going to Ryan's engagement party tonight.
00:20:07I just, as his mother, I cannot embarrass him.
00:20:10What should I wear?
00:20:13Mom, try all of these.
00:20:15Oh, oh, okay, okay, okay.
00:20:17Yes, this one's perfect.
00:20:41Dad, what do you think?
00:20:45Uh, yeah, absolutely beautiful.
00:20:49Well, Olivia, she has such a great sense of style.
00:20:52I mean, this dress looks well made and looks expensive.
00:20:56How much is it?
00:20:57No, no, no, no, it's not that expensive.
00:21:03Don't worry.
00:21:05It's an insider price.
00:21:06Insider price, yes.
00:21:07But Olivia, you only just started working.
00:21:09I can't afford something like this.
00:21:10No, no, don't worry, dear.
00:21:12This is from Olivia's friend's shop.
00:21:13It's all insider price.
00:21:15Very cheap.
00:21:16Really?
00:21:17Absolutely.
00:21:20Okay, well, that makes me feel better.
00:21:22I'm meeting Julia's parents today.
00:21:24I'm so nervous.
00:21:26Apparently, there's some big shots,
00:21:27CEOs of Truefield Partners or something like that.
00:21:30Oh, I feel better.
00:21:31Well, now, let's go fix your makeup, then.
00:21:34Okay.
00:21:36Truefield Partners?
00:21:38Isn't that the small company bidding
00:21:39for our Montgomery Group's 30 million project?
00:21:43The 30 million projects.
00:21:44Let the Truefield Partners sign it.
00:21:47Consider it a gift for Lana's children.
00:21:56Marcus, glad you can make it tonight.
00:21:59We have a lot to catch up on.
00:22:00We've been waiting so long for you.
00:22:03Have a drink.
00:22:04Tonight, you're our guest of honor.
00:22:07I'm happy to be here for such a special day.
00:22:09Today, I also have some good news.
00:22:11The $30 million project.
00:22:13Our chairman has chosen your company.
00:22:14Really?
00:22:20That's all for now.
00:22:22Our chairman has other important guests.
00:22:24Go meet him.
00:22:25All right.
00:22:25I will have to catch up.
00:22:26101.
00:22:29It's so weird.
00:22:30It's so weird.
00:22:32It's so weird.
00:22:33It's so weird.
00:22:35Yeah.
00:22:35Mom, why are you wearing that dress?
00:22:43I've seen that dress before.
00:22:44It costs like $10,000.
00:22:46There's no way she could afford that.
00:22:48Must be a rental.
00:22:50Such vanity.
00:22:51Anyways, it doesn't matter how expensive her clothes are.
00:22:54She can't hide her impoverished roots.
00:22:58Wait, is she the poor woman that's been taking advantage of our family?
00:23:01Doesn't she work down at that ice cream or dessert stall or whatever down by the beach?
00:23:06Listen, I just came here to see Julia and the fish.
00:23:09What are you doing?
00:23:13What are you doing?
00:23:15How do you think that somebody like you is worthy to touch this precious baby inside Julia's belly?
00:23:24Exactly.
00:23:25You can't have someone with something impoverished aura coming around.
00:23:28What if the Carter family has to deal with that later on?
00:23:39Good evening, sir.
00:23:40This way, please.
00:23:42Where's Marcus?
00:23:42Today's your son's engagement party.
00:23:44His old race in Montgomery.
00:23:46I just delivered a gift for your son.
00:23:48Also, the chairman of the Estereo Global Holdings is waiting for you in the royal suite.
00:23:53Well done.
00:23:54Half the hotel had a set of plates for the engagement party like ours.
00:23:57I'll take care of it right away.
00:24:03Mom, you didn't have to bring us a gift.
00:24:07What is it?
00:24:08It's just some cookies I made and I hope you guys...
00:24:12Oh my god, get away from us.
00:24:14I'm allergic to poor people.
00:24:18I'm allergic to poor people's stuff.
00:24:21Julia, is this seriously the man you're going to marry?
00:24:23You can't even bring out anything nice or expensive.
00:24:26Just a cheap box of cookies.
00:24:29Julia, please don't do this to me.
00:24:32I'm begging you.
00:24:33We need some dignity here.
00:24:34Look, I didn't mean anything by it.
00:24:37All I want to do is just see you guys happy.
00:24:39That's all I need.
00:24:40Well...
00:24:40Satisfied?
00:24:43God, Julia is so out of his league.
00:24:47Are you kidding?
00:24:48Ryan has always worked hard.
00:24:50He's not a toad.
00:24:52Working hard.
00:24:53He has a job at my company because of my daughter.
00:24:56Things have changed.
00:24:57Now we have a very important partner with the Montgomery Company.
00:25:02Good evening.
00:25:03This is a token from our chairman.
00:25:05Oh my god.
00:25:06My goodness.
00:25:07This is a $20,000 bottle of the Screaming Eagle.
00:25:10Oh my god.
00:25:11We've got to pop this open.
00:25:13Please convey my gratitude to Mr. Montgomery and we will put our full effort into this project.
00:25:21Now the whole Montgomery revolves around us and you parasites cling to the powerful.
00:25:26Aren't you ashamed?
00:25:27It's hilarious.
00:25:28His wedding expenses will be tenfold and your family will get the bill.
00:25:33No.
00:25:34Please.
00:25:34Please don't treat us that way.
00:25:36I promise you we really don't have that much money.
00:25:39And I beg you.
00:25:41Please don't force us.
00:25:43Julia.
00:25:43Woman.
00:25:44How dare you hurt my sister.
00:25:47Please just don't force us.
00:25:49Julia.
00:25:49Julia.
00:25:50Woman.
00:25:50How dare you hurt my sister.
00:25:53Bob.
00:25:55This would be a great business venture for the both of us.
00:25:58Very profitable.
00:25:58For sure.
00:26:00Sir.
00:26:00I'm just making a play to give you a fire.
00:26:05What?
00:26:07I dare bully Lana.
00:26:08Oh my god.
00:26:09Sweetheart.
00:26:10Are you okay?
00:26:11Oh my god.
00:26:12I'm so worried.
00:26:13Please tell me.
00:26:14Are you okay?
00:26:14My precious baby.
00:26:16Are you a wretch?
00:26:18Get out.
00:26:19You're the one who needs to get out.
00:26:31Are you okay?
00:26:33Don't worry.
00:26:34I'm here.
00:26:36Who the hell are you?
00:26:37And what's it to you?
00:26:39Dad.
00:26:40Shut up, dumbass.
00:26:42Who the hell are you to slap my husband?
00:26:45Mom, isn't that the cab driver?
00:26:48Aw.
00:26:49Look at him all dressed up.
00:26:51Here, I thought we had pissed off some big shot.
00:26:55What is wrong with being a taxi driver?
00:26:57We have worked hard for our money.
00:26:59You guys just have no right.
00:27:01Look at you.
00:27:03Do you really think you can compare with us?
00:27:05Let me tell you.
00:27:07The Carter family is way out of your league.
00:27:15Come, hold it private, stop all dealings with the true-feel partners, and blacklist them.
00:27:20Blacklist the whole damn Carter family.
00:27:22Who the hell are you to say blacklist?
00:27:24Because of these two penniless losers?
00:27:27Kid, we are the Montgomerys.
00:27:29Security, get them the hell out of here.
00:27:32What?
00:27:33What?
00:27:34Mom.
00:27:34What?
00:27:36Mom, are you okay?
00:27:38How come it got hurt like this?
00:27:40Don't worry, sweetheart.
00:27:41I'm fine.
00:27:42Thankfully, your father got there just in time.
00:27:45But why did they hate you?
00:27:47Wasn't Ryan there?
00:27:48Just a bunch of bullies abusing their power.
00:27:51An adopted son of yours?
00:27:52To be honest, I'm disappointed.
00:27:54He just stood there and said nothing while you're being bullied.
00:27:58How could he do that?
00:28:00No, I can't blame him.
00:28:02Ryan, he has been struggling for years now, and he's got a family to support,
00:28:07and I just can't make things even more difficult for him.
00:28:11I just, I need to be able to handle these things myself now.
00:28:15But he can't just stand by and watch.
00:28:17It's not his fault.
00:28:18Things were never easy for him.
00:28:20I rescued him years ago.
00:28:23We did everything we could to just try and give him a good family,
00:28:27but then Rick, he just, he just never accepted him from the start.
00:28:31How could he do that?
00:28:33He wasn't always like he was now.
00:28:35He used to be actually a really good father.
00:28:38We once had a daughter named Emma.
00:28:41Emma?
00:28:42Emma!
00:28:42Emma!
00:28:43The day that I rescued Ryan, Emma disappeared.
00:28:49We did everything we could to just try and find her,
00:28:53but we just couldn't find any trace of her.
00:28:56And then Rick, he just, he just changed,
00:28:59and he started drinking and gambling,
00:29:01and he never got to forgive me.
00:29:04It's not a excuse if you didn't treat her, Emma.
00:29:06Don't worry.
00:29:07It will get better.
00:29:08And we will help you find Emma.
00:29:09I remember seeing a heart-shaped birthmark on my mother's thigh
00:29:19when I was a child,
00:29:21but this is a floral-shaped scar.
00:29:24Ugh.
00:29:24If only she was my biological mother.
00:29:28Oh, are you okay? What's wrong?
00:29:30Yeah.
00:29:30I'm sorry.
00:29:32I'm just very clumsy today.
00:29:36Mom.
00:29:38I believe
00:29:39your biological daughter
00:29:41was guided by the angels.
00:29:43Look at me.
00:29:44All happy and carefree.
00:29:46Well looked after by Dad.
00:29:51I think we're all gonna be happy.
00:29:55Oh, darling, you mail.
00:29:58This is just my high school reunion invite.
00:30:02They send it every year.
00:30:03I changed my address so it got sent here.
00:30:06So my little darling was the popular girl
00:30:07back in the day, huh?
00:30:08Definitely have to make an appearance at this one.
00:30:16Cheers.
00:30:18Jessica, did you hear?
00:30:19The old queen bee from our high school, Lana,
00:30:22is coming tonight.
00:30:23Oh, the poor girl who sells the desserts?
00:30:25Yes, but apparently her dessert stand
00:30:27is quite popular on social media.
00:30:29She's making quite a bit of money.
00:30:31She could be rich?
00:30:32What a joke.
00:30:33Oh, my God.
00:30:38She's even more beautiful now
00:30:40than she was before.
00:30:40She's...
00:30:41That is the woman that's causing
00:30:44so many problems for my husband's company.
00:30:47Let me teach her a lesson.
00:30:48Oh, no, I'm so sorry.
00:30:57That was totally an accident.
00:30:59That's more like it.
00:31:01This downtrodden look suits you.
00:31:04Aren't you embarrassed?
00:31:05You need to go change into some clean clothes.
00:31:08The social gap between people is so obvious.
00:31:14My goodness.
00:31:15Are those Montgomery limited edition gems?
00:31:18They are.
00:31:19My husband got them for me.
00:31:20Too bad he had to miss this.
00:31:22He's supposed to get dinner meeting
00:31:22with Mr. Montgomery,
00:31:24the head of the Montgomery group just upstairs.
00:31:26Among all of us,
00:31:27we really are the most successful.
00:31:29Ian, isn't your wife hosting a class reunion
00:31:37at your house tonight?
00:31:38Yes, Mr. Montgomery.
00:31:39How did you know?
00:31:39My wife's attendant.
00:31:41Take me with you to check her out.
00:31:42Yes, sir.
00:31:43If you're going to go up against us,
00:32:00don't expect it to go good for you.
00:32:10Look, everyone.
00:32:13Poor baby.
00:32:30Oh, so sloppy.
00:32:34Oh, look at that.
00:32:36The taxi driver's playing hero.
00:32:40Enough!
00:32:41Do you realize who you're talking about?
00:32:43That's the chairman of the Montgomery group.
00:32:45Chairman?
00:32:46You've really done it now.
00:32:48You've caused serious trouble.
00:32:51Don't worry.
00:32:51Okay.
00:32:52Isn't that charming chairman of Montgomery group?
00:32:54Just like the rumor said.
00:32:56How is that possible?
00:32:58How could a little baker girl know someone like him?
00:33:01Oh!
00:33:03Watch your mouth.
00:33:05Is that any way to speak about our chairman's wife?
00:33:08Everybody shut up!
00:33:12Everybody shut up!
00:33:13Yes, of course, Mr. Montgomery.
00:33:15Everyone, please, disperse.
00:33:17You have five minutes to fix this mess.
00:33:20I'll make sure your bribery material puts you behind bars for life.
00:33:25I'm so sorry, Mr. Montgomery.
00:33:26It won't happen again.
00:33:27I promise!
00:33:30She was the chairman's wife?
00:33:32You tried to trick me, you wretch!
00:33:34I didn't do anything.
00:33:36Oh!
00:33:36Oh!
00:33:37Get off of me!
00:33:39You bitch!
00:33:40Can you believe it?
00:33:56Did I just hear that right?
00:34:00Are you truly the chairman of the Montgomery group?
00:34:04Yes, indeed, my dear.
00:34:06You are the wife of the Montgomery group's chairman.
00:34:10Oh, my dear.
00:34:18Darlene.
00:34:21Wait for me.
00:34:22Are you still mad?
00:34:25Lana, please, just hear me out.
00:34:27Here's your jacket, Mr. Chairman.
00:34:29Lana, please.
00:34:30Just leave me alone, okay?
00:34:32Lana, I'm sorry.
00:34:34It's my fault.
00:34:35I never should lie to you about who I am.
00:34:36I was scared.
00:34:39Scared.
00:34:41Scared you'd be like the others.
00:34:43Just loving me for my status.
00:34:47Lana, please just give me another chance.
00:35:03Alright, Lana, you're up.
00:35:04Listen, about last night I was just really...
00:35:06No, don't even explain it to me, okay?
00:35:08I get it, I need to get to work, so just don't be in my way, please.
00:35:11You're the Mrs. Montgomery now, do you really need to work so hard?
00:35:16I can come with you?
00:35:17Are you not supposed to be out of town?
00:35:19At least let me drive you.
00:35:21Yeah.
00:35:23That taxi driver husband affairs hasn't shown up today.
00:35:27Everything's going according to the boss's plan.
00:35:30Let's make this quick.

00:36:46Hold it.

00:36:49The fun of the hunt has just begun.
00:36:51Understood, boss. You're calm.
00:36:59Dad, come back quickly.
00:37:06Something's happening at home.
00:37:08Calm down, baby. What's going on?
00:37:10It's mom.
00:37:11Mom is in danger.
00:37:12Please come and save her.
00:37:13Get the helicopter ready, quick!
00:37:15Right away.
00:37:16Okay.
00:37:18Olivia, don't be afraid.
00:37:20You can do this.
00:37:21You must do this.
00:37:23Okay.
00:37:23Freeze!
00:37:35Hands up!
00:37:37Or else you're dead!
00:37:41Oh, no.
00:37:43Do it.
00:37:45Mom!
00:37:46Mom!
00:37:49Please?
00:37:50Just leave her alone.
00:37:51Please.
00:37:52Please, please, don't shoot her.
00:37:59Please!
00:38:00Let me go.
00:38:01You don't know who my father is.
00:38:03Oh, you mean the taxi mogul?
00:38:05What do I ask for you?
00:38:05We'll leave you with five-star ratings.
00:38:07You're fools.
00:38:08Just wait and see.
00:38:09You'll regret everything.
00:38:12Lovely little one.
00:38:14Tell me what's so important
00:38:15about your incompetent dad.
00:38:18He is Alaric Montgomery.
00:38:21The chairman of the current Montgomery family.
00:38:25Montgomery family?
00:38:26Mm-hmm.
00:38:27Don't come in here spewing these high titles.
00:38:30Around here, it's not about your background.
00:38:32It's about who shoots first.
00:38:33Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:38:34Let it go!
00:38:36We'll die!
00:38:39Let it go!
00:38:40We'll die!
00:38:40Just try!
00:38:42See?
00:38:43If you're faster, or she dies first.
00:38:46Let's make a deal.
00:38:46Let's make a deal, okay?
00:38:47You want me, right?
00:38:48Okay?
00:38:49Well, here I am.
00:38:50No, Mom!
00:38:51No!
00:38:52Your wife smells great.
00:38:59He's in here.
00:38:59He's just...
00:39:01Mom!
00:39:02Mom!
00:39:02Mom!
00:39:02Mom!
00:39:02Mom!
00:39:02Mom!
00:39:03Mom!
00:39:03Mom!
00:39:03Mom!
00:39:03Mom!
00:39:04Mom!
00:39:04Mom!
00:39:04Mom!
00:39:04Mom!
00:39:05Mom!
00:39:05Mom!
00:39:06Mom!
00:39:06Mom!
00:39:07Mom!
00:39:07Mom!
00:39:08Mom!
00:39:09Mom!
00:39:10Mom!
00:39:11Mom!
00:39:12Mom!
00:39:13Mom!
00:39:14Mom!
00:39:15Mom!
00:39:16It's over!
00:39:17Rick!
00:39:18You kissed your daughter with Lana.
00:39:19I'll spare your life today.
00:39:20Get out!
00:39:21And don't ever let me see you again!
00:39:23Dad!
00:39:24You guys okay?
00:39:25Yeah.
00:39:26We're fine.
00:39:28It's too dangerous living here, Lana.
00:39:29Mm-hmm.
00:39:30Let's go home together.
00:39:31Huh?
00:39:32Yes.
00:39:33Back to our real home.
00:39:35Welcome home, Mr. Montgomery.
00:39:36Mrs. Montgomery.
00:39:37And Miss Olivia.
00:39:38Welcome home, my lady.
00:39:40This feels like a dream.
00:39:41This isn't a dream.
00:39:42This is our home together.
00:39:43This isn't a dream.
00:39:44This is our home together.
00:39:45It's windy tonight.
00:39:46Don't catch a cold.
00:39:47It's windy tonight.
00:39:48Don't catch a cold.
00:39:49This view from here is...
00:39:50Thanks.
00:40:03The view from here is...
00:40:05to me.
00:40:08How did you now do this?
00:40:11It's windy tonight. Don't catch a cold.
00:40:15The view from here is amazing.
00:40:19But it is too far from work. Does that mean that I can't go back
00:40:23to the dessert stand? If you still want to, I can have someone drive you there every day.
00:40:27Maybe not. The expense is too high and
00:40:31it just doesn't feel as important to me anymore. Anything you love
00:40:35is always worth it. Actually, I'm not even sure if I should continue.
00:40:39But besides that, I don't know what else I could do.
00:40:43I know it sounds silly, but I never even finished college.
00:40:47My mom got ill and we needed the money, so I started working
00:40:51in the dessert style. Do you remember what you enjoyed doing back then?
00:40:55Design. Fashion design. My mom, she was the best
00:40:59tailor in town and she used all her money to put me through design
00:41:03school. But after a year, she got sick and
00:41:07she was bedridden. I see.
00:41:11Actually, I've noticed the talent in you for a long time.
00:41:13You've got a great sense of fashion coordination
00:41:15and these clothes and items are all handmade by you.
00:41:19You noticed?
00:41:21I always wanted to be like my mom,
00:41:23but I don't know, it's just, it's been so long now.
00:41:25Don't worry, Lana, you can be great at it.
00:41:27You should join our company's fashion department as a designer.
00:41:31Now?
00:41:33It's time to let this dream alive again.
00:41:35I've never even finished design school.
00:41:37Nobody's born a designer, but you have enough talent
00:41:39to stand out. With some professional training,
00:41:41you can be great, you can do better than anyone.
00:41:43Do you really believe I can do it?
00:41:45Of course. You're the chosen lady of the Montgomery family.
00:41:57Ta-da!
00:42:01Well, this is truly a masterpiece of nature.
00:42:03Aw, you do flatter me.
00:42:05But you guys don't think this is too, you know,
00:42:07extravagant for my first day at work?
00:42:09Not at all.
00:42:11As a fashion designer, you should dress confidently.
00:42:15You two are something else?
00:42:17Let's see.
00:42:23Don't be nervous.
00:42:25You're just a new designer. Let's go, Tommy.
00:42:27No, Tommy, sorry.
00:42:29This car is just too flashy.
00:42:31I'm just gonna walk from here.
00:42:35Sir, if that were any other woman,
00:42:37she'd probably flaunt her wealth everywhere
00:42:39and bully others in your name.
00:42:41Ms. Cooper is truly unique.
00:42:43Lana is indeed unique.
00:42:45Go greet the head of the fashion department
00:42:47to ensure no one accidentally offensive.
00:42:49Understood.
00:42:51What?
00:42:53Amber from the France branch is coming back today?
00:42:55Don't worry, I'll treat her well.
00:42:57We're counting on you.
00:42:59What?
00:43:00Amber from the France branch is coming back today?
00:43:02Don't worry, I'll treat her well.
00:43:04We're counting on her to bring great results to this department.
00:43:12Ms. Sophia, the chairman's wife will be visiting your department today.
00:43:16Please be attentive.
00:43:17No problem.
00:43:18I've heard all about it.
00:43:20Um, rest assured, I'll make all the necessary arrangements.
00:43:24My lucky stars are shining.
00:43:30This is a huge opportunity.
00:43:34No.
00:43:36The weather in France is unbearably boring.
00:43:42But at least the people there understand fashion.
00:43:46I'm just popping into a meeting.
00:43:48Move, you country bumpkin.
00:43:54Are you going to move, or are you going to just stand there like a statue?
00:44:00Sorry, I'm not sure.
00:44:01Where was I?
00:44:02Ah, I'm back this time to take down Alaric Montgomery.
00:44:04He won't slip out of my grasp this time.
00:44:06Is she talking about my husband, Alaric?
00:44:08Miss Amber, it is such an honor to meet you.
00:44:10I've heard such good things about your France branch, and we really need a designer here like you.
00:44:22I suppose.
00:44:23I'll give you all the chance to prove you're worthy of my presence.
00:44:27Of course, of course.
00:44:29Well, we've set up a welcome party, and we have quite a few designs awaiting your approval already.
00:44:35Oh, shh.
00:44:36Where's I, Miss Amber?
00:44:37In a script font.
00:44:39Is this the design department, or a kindergarten?
00:44:42Who put that there?
00:44:44Was it you?
00:44:45Take it down immediately.
00:44:50Who's this?
00:44:51Is she new?
00:44:54New here?
00:44:55Oh.
00:44:56I'm the new designer, Lana Cooper.
00:44:58Don't stand so close, please.
00:45:00So inspiring.
00:45:02Trying to break into the fashion industry at that age.
00:45:06I admire your guts.
00:45:07Go get us some water.
00:45:08Quick.
00:45:09Please.
00:45:10Okay.
00:45:11Are you crazy?
00:45:12Oh my God.
00:45:13I am truly, truly sorry.
00:45:14The newbie is doomed.
00:45:15I heard those clothes cost over 10k.
00:45:16High end, custom, obviously.
00:45:17She's in really big trouble now.
00:45:18How are we going to solve this issue?
00:45:19What is wrong with you?
00:45:23What is wrong with you?
00:45:24You can't even do a simple task?
00:45:25You need to pay Miss Amber.
00:45:26Right now.
00:45:27What did you say this is worth?
00:45:28Maybe 150,000?
00:45:29150,000?
00:45:30150,000?
00:45:31This is your mess.
00:45:32You have to take responsibility.
00:45:33I can't afford that.
00:45:34I can't afford that.
00:45:35It's too expensive.
00:45:36Can I just dry clean it for you?
00:45:38What is wrong with this company these days?
00:45:39Can just anyone walk in here and start working here now?
00:45:40How are we going to solve this issue?
00:45:41How are we going to solve this issue?
00:45:42How are we going to solve this issue?
00:45:43What is wrong with you?
00:45:44You can't even do a simple task?
00:45:46You need to pay Miss Amber.
00:45:48Right now.
00:45:49What did you say this is worth?
00:45:51Maybe 150,000?
00:45:53150,000?
00:45:54This is your mess.
00:45:55You have to take responsibility.
00:45:56I can't afford that.
00:45:57It's too expensive.
00:45:58Can I just dry clean it for you?
00:45:59What is wrong with this company these days?
00:46:00Can just anyone walk in here and start working here now?
00:46:01Who even brought her in here?
00:46:02Somebody get her out.
00:46:03Security!
00:46:04Just one second, ma'am.
00:46:05Just take a closer look at her outfit.
00:46:06She's wearing unreleased pieces from Paris Fashion Week this year.
00:46:19What?
00:46:20Yes.
00:46:21These are Master Misha's newest designs.
00:46:22Worth over a million.
00:46:23Oh my god.
00:46:24Alaric's gift is just too extravagant.
00:46:25She must have some serious connections to have access to clothes like these.
00:46:26She's no ordinary person.
00:46:27I want to see what you're made of.
00:46:28You know, forget it.
00:46:29I won't argue with a newbie.
00:46:30What if I let you go?
00:46:31What if I let you go?
00:46:32No.
00:46:33No.
00:46:34No.
00:46:35No.
00:46:36No.
00:46:37No.
00:46:38No.
00:46:39No.
00:46:40No.
00:46:41No.
00:46:42No.
00:46:43No.
00:46:44No.
00:46:45No.
00:46:46No.
00:46:47No.
00:46:48No.
00:46:49No.
00:46:50Maybe you could do something for me in return.
00:46:54What can I do for you?
00:46:55Hmmmm.
00:47:00Remember, at Montgomery Fashion Week, we value ability over connections.
00:47:07To really reach the pinnacle, you're gonna have to show us what you're capable of.
00:47:10This is the Montgomery Annual Most Important Fashion Show.
00:47:17You have two days.
00:47:19Either present a design that dazzles us, and I'll let you go.
00:47:25Or you can remove yourself from the design department.
00:47:29Your choice.
00:47:32All right.
00:47:33Two days it is.
00:47:38Quite brave.
00:47:39The Montgomery Fashion Show is fueled with experts.
00:47:44A newbie like her?
00:47:45She's destined to fail.
00:47:46This is just to teach her a little lesson,
00:47:49so that she understands that messing with me isn't just a simple mistake.
00:47:54It has deadly consequences.
00:48:08Madam?
00:48:09Do you like it?
00:48:23The scent reminds me of morning dew and sunshine.
00:48:26And then incorporate those elements into your design.
00:48:31What do you mean?
00:48:33Think about it.
00:48:33Why is your dessert stand always busier than the others?
00:48:36Well, I choose top quality ingredients for the taste and aroma,
00:48:41and I pay attention to the appearance.
00:48:44You know, the colors, and also layers of taste sensations.
00:48:48And the way you design the car, the place you picked on the beach for the scenery,
00:48:52your unforgettable singing and warmly enthusiastic service.
00:48:56I think I know what to do now.
00:49:04I think I know what to do now.
00:49:08Thank you, honey.
00:49:11Go for it.
00:49:12I believe in you.
00:49:13In conclusion, sexiness is a woman's power, and that's the soul of design.
00:49:26That is my design philosophy.
00:49:33Your turn.
00:49:36Amber is the top designer at Montgomery.
00:49:39Her presentation is flawless.
00:49:41If I were you, I would just give up now, avoid embarrassment.
00:49:44Oh, well, you might not be able to produce anything, right?
00:49:51No worries.
00:49:52Maybe you could just take a janitor job at Montgomery.
00:49:59So my creativity is inspired not only by visuals, but also by sound, smell, and touch.
00:50:06What a joke.
00:50:07How do you imbue a piece of clothing with sound, touch, and smell?
00:50:13Like you said, a female sexiness is a form of power,
00:50:18but I believe that true sexiness comes from imagination,
00:50:23and it evokes a deeper sense of emotion
00:50:25through a blend of visuals and auditory and even tactile perceptions
00:50:31by integrating advanced microencapsulation technology
00:50:35to embed into the fabric a certain sense.
00:50:39Wow, that's a really cool idea.
00:50:41Also, even light and shadow can stimulate related sensory associations.
00:50:46Therefore, a woman's sexiness is not just superficial,
00:50:51but a resonance from inside and out.
00:50:54A deeper connection from emotions to senses.
00:51:00Enough.
00:51:01This design is ridiculous.
00:51:09Who do you think you are?
00:51:11Miss Amber, what is exactly wrong with my design?
00:51:14What's wrong with it?
00:51:15Do you think you can clamber on stage at the Montgomery International Fashion Show
00:51:20with this whimsical nonsense?
00:51:22Yes, that is a battleground for global design masters,
00:51:27not some sandbox for an amateur like yourself to daydream in.
00:51:32This entire design is a joke.
00:51:35Design should not be confined by just visuals,
00:51:38and a woman's charm should not be limited by her appearance.
00:51:42I don't claim that my work is the best,
00:51:45but it does hold significance.
00:51:47And your so-called professional opinion
00:51:50is just another example of that limitation.
00:52:02Done.
00:52:03Let's go check on the progress of the design department.
00:52:05And will you be checking on a certain someone, sir?
00:52:09Get onto your own work right away.
00:52:11Are you accusing me of making things deliberately difficult for you?
00:52:20Is that not the case?
00:52:22Who do you think you are to deserve so much of my effort?
00:52:27Lana, I advise you not to court trouble.
00:52:30Do you know who you're talking to?
00:52:31Amber is Chairman Alaric Montgomery's officially designated fiancée.
00:52:36You're a newcomer.
00:52:38You think you can challenge her?
00:52:39You have no idea.
00:52:41Did you just say that she is the chairman's fiancée?
00:52:49Wait, what did you just say?
00:52:51Amber is the chairman's fiancée.
00:52:54Yeah.
00:52:55Designer Amber is not only the Montgomery Group's chairman's wife.
00:52:59She's also everyone's crush.
00:53:02You're a newcomer, sweetheart.
00:53:04You think you can offend her repeatedly?
00:53:06You must have the heart of a lion and the courage of a leopard.
00:53:10How can this be?
00:53:13I am Alaric's wife.
00:53:15For someone of such insignificant background as yourself, just being at this company is an honor.
00:53:21Now, since you don't seem to understand the rules, let's just start with the basics.
00:53:28From now on, you'll handle my coffee orders and the office cleaning.
00:53:31And maybe, if I'm in a good mood, maybe, I'll teach you a thing or two about life.
00:53:37It's not your place to teach anyone about life.
00:53:40Darling, you're here.
00:53:42I don't think our relationship was good enough for you to call me that.
00:53:49Sir, we didn't expect to interrupt you.
00:53:52We were just having a minor internal department adjustment telling this new employee here,
00:53:58you know, the company rules.
00:53:59Rules?
00:54:00What rules allow you to treat employees like this?
00:54:03I'd like to know exactly what she did wrong.
00:54:05Mr. Montgomery, she came in here with the most ridiculous design plan,
00:54:09trying to overthrow Montgomery's company culture.
00:54:12Brand philosophies.
00:54:14It's bullying new employees' company culture.
00:54:17Alaric, relax.
00:54:19Have some water.
00:54:20We were just trying to maintain the reputation of Mon-
00:54:23Of Montgomery.
00:54:29A designer like her will only drag the rest of the team down.
00:54:32Shut up, Amber.
00:54:33It's not your place to decide who drags the company down.
00:54:36Alaric Montgomery.
00:54:39Alaric Montgomery.
00:54:40Are you seriously doing this for her?
00:54:42I'm the damn daughter-in-law of the Montgomery family hand-picked for you.
00:54:47Amber, the favor I owe you for saving my ass.
00:54:51It's paid in full.
00:54:53You have abused this chairman's fiancée title for years and gotten away with whatever you want.
00:54:59Well, let me make one thing clear.
00:55:01If you try any more of your little games, I will personally throw your ass out of the Montgomery family.
00:55:06You think this is some playground for you to play with power?
00:55:09Montgomery is the heart and soul of this family, not your personal stage.
00:55:14Bringing you back from France is to ensure that this fashion show goes smoothly.
00:55:18If another scene like this happens, no one will be able to protect you.
00:55:21And as for this controversial new design, I've reviewed it in advance.
00:55:30It's bold, innovative, aligned with the direction our brand seeks to pursue and fit in perfectly with our vision and position in the industry.
00:55:37So, Sophia, as the head of the design department, I hope you understand your responsibilities.
00:55:45It's your task to lead the team to fully support this new designer to complete the project and not create more trouble.
00:55:51Yes, sir.
00:55:54I understand.
00:55:57And you.
00:55:59Come with me for a moment.
00:56:01Yes, sir.
00:56:08Get out!
00:56:09Are you okay?
00:56:15I'm so worried seeing you surrounded like that.
00:56:17Don't worry, I can handle it.
00:56:19Why can't we just tell everyone you're my wife?
00:56:21It could save you some unnecessary trouble.
00:56:23Because I want to stand up for myself now.
00:56:26And prove my worth.
00:56:28What do you mean?
00:56:28When I see everyone's initial distrust turn into surprise and then recognition,
00:56:34I just, I know I've taken control of the room.
00:56:36You always do this.
00:56:40You make me proud and worried at the same time.
00:56:45Don't worry.
00:56:46The hardest part is over.
00:56:51And honestly, I couldn't have done any of this without your unwavering support.
00:56:56The next stage is mine.
00:56:58And I promise you that our designs are going to be unmatched at the fashion show.
00:57:02I never doubted you.
00:57:03You're the ace of the Montgomery family.
00:57:07But I do have one request.
00:57:09Okay, what is it?
00:57:11At a celebration party, I want to let everyone know you're my wife.
00:57:14You're not just Lana.
00:57:16You're the core of Montgomery.
00:57:19Okay, deal.
00:57:21And you will not be disappointed.
00:57:23Mr. Alaric Montgomery, are you introducing your wife to us today?
00:57:44Yes, this is my wife, Lana Cooper Montgomery.
00:57:48She's also the creative director of tonight's fashion show.
00:57:51And this year's theme is Dream of Roses.
00:57:54So please stay tuned.
00:57:55Are you expecting kids anytime soon?
00:57:57Hey, when's the party?
00:58:00Your house?
00:58:01When do you guys live?
00:58:02Come on, give me some information, please.
00:58:04No worries.
00:58:08We'll make sure you're out of Montgomery for good.
00:58:11No coming back.
00:58:15You have a problem?
00:58:16Tyler's dress has been completely destroyed by someone.
00:58:19Mom!
00:58:20What do we do?
00:58:21Tyler's about to go on stage, like now.
00:58:22Okay, you go check the other dresses and see if they're okay.
00:58:27Okay.
00:58:27I would dare do anything at this point.
00:58:31Tyler's about to perform.
00:58:33She's the most important singer in the show.
00:58:34What do we do?
00:58:38Give me the flowers.
00:58:41Give me the flowers.
00:58:49Can you please cut the stems?
00:58:52Thank you, sweetie.
00:58:57It's time.
00:59:04We need to get Tyler to the stage right now.
00:59:06Okay.
00:59:07Olivia, can you please collect the remaining rose petals?
00:59:10Now?
00:59:10100%.
00:59:10Yeah.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:27Thank you to tonight's magical creator, Lana Cooper.
00:59:52Witness the birth of a miracle.
00:59:57You always knew you'd have to go cheer in for you.
01:00:01Well, if your rose is by my side, you can bury Liz.
01:00:04Go on, mother.
01:00:06Come on.
01:00:09Yay, my brother!
01:00:24It's this bitch!
01:00:25She plagiarized my design!
01:00:30You've been deceived this entire time by her!
01:00:38You've been deceived this entire time by her!
01:00:4520 minutes ago, this dress was in tatters because of her.
01:00:48It was Alaric's roses that turned decay into a miracle.
01:00:51It was Alaric's roses that turned decay into a miracle.
01:00:58Enough, Amber!
01:00:59Do you think the surveillance footage would lie?
01:01:01Alaric, why?
01:01:03Why are you always protecting her?
01:01:06I'm the woman you loved for years.
01:01:08Why are you taking her side now?
01:01:11Because 30 years ago, it was her, Alana, that saved me.
01:01:15Yeah.
01:01:16You've deceived me for a decade.
01:01:17No.
01:01:18It's impossible.
01:01:19You're mistaken.
01:01:20Baby.
01:01:21Get away!
01:01:22Leave him alone!
01:01:23I said get away!
01:01:24It's okay.
01:01:25You're gonna be okay.
01:01:26It's okay.
01:01:27It's okay.
01:01:28It's okay.
01:01:29It's okay.
01:01:30It's okay.
01:01:31It's okay.
01:01:32It's okay.
01:01:33It's okay.
01:01:34It's okay.
01:01:35It's okay.
01:01:36It's okay.
01:01:37It's okay.
01:01:38It's okay.
01:01:41Help!
01:01:42Someone help!
01:01:50Thank God you're awake.
01:01:51I'm so glad I saved your life.
01:01:58Amber, don't you understand yet?
01:02:00There's never been any debt of gratitude between us.
01:02:03Do you think I couldn't see through your deception?
01:02:06I just chose not to expose it.
01:02:28Noonde before, nor is your retainer.
01:02:34Leather jacket on in the snow,
01:02:39Always such a cool guy,
01:02:41New life, new clothes,
01:02:44But maybe you're the same.
01:02:47I see it from afar.
01:02:50Morning director, here's your coffee.
01:02:59That's so thoughtful of you.
01:03:01Good morning, Miss Lana.
01:03:02Good morning.
01:03:03You bunch of sycophants.
01:03:06None of you will get away unscathed.
01:03:18Well, good morning everyone.
01:03:19Let's get to work.
01:03:21We have a major project starting today,
01:03:23and I expect everyone to exceed their own limits.
01:03:25Let's do it.
01:03:30You know, this is because of your damn mother.
01:03:32Our family's nearly bankrupt now.
01:03:34How long are you going to do the Good Guy Act for, huh?
01:03:36Here, you can take care of your own child.
01:03:41I'll figure something.
01:03:42Why can't you ask your mom for money?
01:03:44She's a lead designer of the Montgomery Group.
01:03:46She's getting all the Montgomery's money.
01:03:48Oh, no.
01:03:49Right.
01:03:50If you don't get money from her this time,
01:03:52you're getting a divorce and you're out of here.
01:03:54I'll do my best.
01:03:56I'll do my best.
01:04:08Come in.
01:04:09Director, there's someone claiming to be a relative of yours here to see you.
01:04:12Okay.
01:04:13Let him in.
01:04:14Mom, this place is amazing.
01:04:16But I want to hear about you.
01:04:17How's everything been?
01:04:18How's the child?
01:04:19We're all right.
01:04:20The baby was born a few weeks ago.
01:04:21Very healthy.
01:04:22That's good.
01:04:23It's great to hear.
01:04:24I'm so happy for you.
01:04:25Yeah.
01:04:26But, you know, we're having some complications.
01:04:28You know, Mom, the engagement party and the Montgomery thing.
01:04:32I understand.
01:04:33What do you need help with?
01:04:34Well, you know, it's really expensive to raise a child.
01:04:35I was thinking one million should cover it for now.
01:04:36One million?
01:04:37Oh, no.
01:04:38No.
01:04:39No.
01:04:40No.
01:04:41No.
01:04:42No.
01:04:43No.
01:04:44No.
01:04:45No.
01:04:46No.
01:04:47No.
01:04:48No.
01:04:49No.
01:04:50No.
01:04:51No.
01:04:52No.
01:04:53No.
01:04:54No.
01:04:55No.
01:04:56No.
01:04:57No.
01:04:58No.
01:04:59No.
01:05:00No.
01:05:01No.
01:05:02One million?
01:05:04Are you joking?
01:05:07Are you joking?
01:05:08We're really desperate.
01:05:10And he married to Montgomery now.
01:05:12So, isn't one million just a piece of cake for you?
01:05:20Here's what I've saved
01:05:21over the past few months.
01:05:22Just running.
01:05:23Please use it for emergencies.
01:05:25How much is on you?
01:05:2620,000.
01:05:28Are you serious?
01:05:2920,000?
01:05:31Didn't you marry a Montgomery chairman who controls the whole Montgomery group and this is all you can give me?
01:05:39Ryan, a lark's wealth is his and what I earn is...
01:05:42Ridiculous.
01:05:43This petty cash is not enough to raise a child.
01:05:47Didn't you marry a lark to have a good life?
01:05:49Now that you hit the jackpot, you should plan ahead and cash out as much as you can.
01:05:53Ryan, what your plan is to have me beg a lark to hand over all the Montgomery assets to you to save your financial problems.
01:05:59Just, what if you just once just considered me?
01:06:02Who do you think you are talking to right now?
01:06:06It's your fault that we're in this mess.
01:06:08And here you are enjoying what Montgomery has to offer.
01:06:11Dressing to the nines every day, sitting there doing nothing.
01:06:15How does that actually benefit us?
01:06:17You're so heartless.
01:06:19Enough.
01:06:20Enough.
01:06:25Ryan, I finally see you clearly now.
01:06:27From the beginning, you never once considered me, my situation, whether or not I'm happy.
01:06:34All you just keep doing is just keep coming back, asking for money, asking me just to keep bailing you out.
01:06:40You know what?
01:06:41I don't owe you a goddamn thing.
01:06:44Is this how you trip your own family?
01:06:46Can't put aside your so-called pride.
01:06:48Ryan, take the money and leave.
01:06:50I don't want to see you anymore.
01:06:52How can you be so heartless, Mom?
01:06:57Ryan, I am cutting you off.
01:07:01You bitch!
01:07:04Cindy, can you please show him out?
01:07:09Sir, please leave immediately.
01:07:11You'll pay for this, Lana.
01:07:12I curse you.
01:07:13What the hell are you doing?
01:07:31Did you get the money?
01:07:33No.
01:07:33What?
01:07:34You can't even handle your own mother?
01:07:36How can you be so useless?
01:07:37I'm not useless.
01:07:40Showing a true collision, shoving me down and throwing me out like some heartless lunch?
01:07:47It just shows that she doesn't consider me as family.
01:07:51Ryan, you have no way out.
01:07:53Remember, once you find her weakness, you can destroy everything she has.
01:07:58You're right.
01:08:00She closed all the doors on me, leaving me only one path.
01:08:03I won't let her off so easily.
01:08:07I'll make her see that I'm actually capable of fighting back.
01:08:17Rick, you made up my mind.
01:08:19I'm going with your plan.
01:08:21I'm going to make Lana pay.
01:08:23Make her lose everything.
01:08:25You ready for this?
01:08:26I've been waiting for you to say that.
01:08:28Don't worry.
01:08:29We're not the only ones who wanted to suffer.
01:08:31There's someone else willing to drop serious cash to make sure she's in pain.
01:08:35Well, what are we waiting for?
01:08:37Let's get started.
01:08:38Now.
01:08:56You spotted me.
01:09:01Lana Cooper.
01:09:13Your precious daughter is in our hands.
01:09:17Ryan, are you going out of your mind?
01:09:19Why the hell are you doing this?
01:09:22Tell me, how much do you want?
01:09:26If we had a co-operated earlier, we wouldn't have to go this far.
01:09:29But it's too late now.
01:09:31You think we care about a little cash?
01:09:34What we want now is for you to wish you were never born.
01:09:38Ryan, just wake up, okay?
01:09:40Just stop.
01:09:41Just stop going down to some cash.
01:09:43Yo.
01:09:44I'm glad you've seen Mrs. Montgomery.
01:09:46Oh, Rick, I knew it was you.
01:09:47What the hell do you want?
01:09:49What do I want?
01:09:51Think about that.
01:09:52But first, how about we put a little, uh, game time on it?
01:09:57It was 10 minutes, 41 seconds, and counting.
01:10:00No, Rick, just please, just stop!
01:10:09Seems like your stepmom doesn't love you after all.
01:10:11What's the difference, princess?
01:10:14You're just like me.
01:10:16I'm not a pathetic soul.
01:10:2310, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2...
01:10:31Rick, please, stop!
01:10:34Rick, please, stop, okay?
01:10:36I have your mind here.
01:10:36Just please, just let her go.
01:10:37I have to get your attention somehow.
01:10:51It's just a little surprise.
01:10:55I have your money here.
01:10:58Okay, so please, just let her go, okay?
01:11:01Had enough, okay?
01:11:02Here it is, here it is.
01:11:04You know what?
01:11:04You go ahead and keep that.
01:11:06Pay for a decent funeral.
01:11:08Boys, let's have some fun.
01:11:10No, no, no!
01:11:13Are you insane?
01:11:14Stop it, you disabled bastard!
01:11:16Our little game has just begun.
01:11:19Why the rush to leave?
01:11:24We're fine.
01:11:26You can watch as I strip down your stepdaughter.
01:11:30Bits by bits.
01:11:33Emma, how could she have the same birthmark as Emma?
01:11:46Rick, stop.
01:11:47You have no idea what you're doing.
01:11:50Rick, it's your daughter!
01:11:51It's Emma!
01:11:52Stop!
01:11:53Just stop touching her!
01:11:55You'll regret it, please!
01:11:56Please!
01:11:57No, Emma, no, it can't be!
01:12:04She's Emma?
01:12:05Look, look, Rick.
01:12:06Look, do you remember this birthmark?
01:12:08Emma had the exact same one when she was born.
01:12:10It was shaped like a heart.
01:12:11The last time you hit me, you cut me here and turned it into this ugly scar.
01:12:15Rick, just look!
01:12:17It is her!
01:12:18She has the exact same one!
01:12:19Oh, my God, what have I done?
01:12:40Shut up, everyone!
01:12:42Stop acting like you care!
01:12:44Rick, this isn't time to waver.
01:12:47Brian, please stop this!
01:12:49No, I won't stop.
01:12:51Never.
01:12:52You've never loved me!
01:12:56Brian, Rick!
01:12:57Brian, no, I'm...
01:12:58Why are you hesitating?
01:12:59Brian, stop going down this path, okay?
01:13:02It's not too late!
01:13:03Enough!
01:13:04Put the gun down!
01:13:05No, I can't.
01:13:07I can't give up.
01:13:10Oh, no!
01:13:11No!
01:13:19Rick?
01:13:23Rick?
01:13:30It's off your weapon.
01:13:31I'm sorry.
01:13:32Oh!
01:13:32Oh!
01:13:33What the hell?
01:13:41Mom!
01:13:43Mom!
01:13:45Mom!
01:13:47Mom!
01:13:49Mom!
01:13:51Mom!
01:13:53Mom!
01:13:55Mom!
01:13:57Mom!
01:13:59Mom!
01:14:01Mom!
01:14:03Mom!
01:14:09I hope Ryan can find his way.
01:14:13He will. You did everything you could, my dear.
01:14:15I...
01:14:17Oh, are you okay?
01:14:19Do you need me to take to the hospital?
01:14:21No, everything's fine.
01:14:25Mom is fine.
01:14:27But what I think is...
01:14:29You're going to be Dad.
01:14:31Really?
01:14:33Lana, you're pregnant?
01:14:35My God.
01:14:37I'm so happy this is the best news in the world.
01:14:39Thank you, Lana.
01:14:41You're my miracle.
01:14:43Thank God for blessing us with new life.
01:14:45And, finally, I'm going to be big sister.
01:14:49Yes, Olivia, you're going to be an amazing big sister.
01:14:53Black woman years old.
01:14:55That's true.
