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.
00:00:17Good morning, Mr. Whitmore.
00:00:23Remember the deal, buddy? You make the call today. Whoever 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.
00:00:42The 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. The next one wanted a mansion and a yacht.
00:01:03A penthouse downtown, a driver, a yacht.
00:01:05I don't even know what that is.
00:01:08So, does your daddy even have a yacht?
00:01:10We probably can't afford one.
00:01:13Your dad must be a real loser.
00:01:17You don't need a stepmom, kid. You need a charity.
00:01:23Finding a mom is taking forever.
00:01:34Lou, I said two o'clock and I meant two o'clock.
00:01:41Yeah, I'm at the blind date right now.
00:01:43Five minutes, in and out, then I'm hauling your freight.
00:01:46All right, 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.
00:01:58I'm Aiden Vandergruth.
00:02:00I'm here to do my dad's blind date.
00:02:04You?
00:02:05You're covering for your dad?
00:02:08What is his face wanted by the FBI?
00:02:10He sends a kid to do his dirty work?
00:02:14And look at you.
00:02:17You're a mess, kid.
00:02:19You 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.
00:02:40Twenty-eight.
00:02:41Twenty-eight 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.
00:02:58Fifty-nine bucks, completely wrong size.
00:03:01Store wouldn't take them back, so they've just been taking up space in my cab.
00:03:05Go on.
00:03:06Try them on.
00:03:10What, waiting for a written invitation?
00:03:11Come here.
00:03:19Hey, look at that.
00:03:21Cinderella fit.
00:03:22How's it feel?
00:03:23Squishing your toes at all?
00:03:26What?
00:03:27Do I have something on my face?
00:03:30My 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.
00:03:51Thirty-eight dollars for orange juice?
00:03:53What's in it, liquid gold?
00:03:56Come on, kid.
00:03:59I know a place that doesn't rob people.
00:04:05Better, right?
00:04:06Yeah.
00:04:13Hey!
00:04:14Watch 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?
00:04:31Catch me in my 18-wheeler and I'll flatten your bumper into a pancake.
00:04:35Morons.
00:04:42Hey, what's wrong?
00:04:43You okay?
00:04:44Claire, will you be my mom?
00:04:48My name is Aiden Vandergruf.
00:04:51I'm 10.
00:04:53Kid, you're picking out a mom like you're picking out produce.
00:04:58I haven't even met your dad.
00:05:01What if he's a total creep?
00:05:04Come on!
00:05:05I'm taking you to meet him right now!
00:05:11Hey, wait!
00:05:13My truck is still parked back there!
00:05:18I've got a home to deliver!
00:05:25Two billion into the Cloud Hevel project.
00:05:27I want ground broken by Tuesday.
00:05:29No excuses.
00:05:31Yes, Mr. Whitworth.
00:05:34Sir, the young master found himself a stepmom.
00:05:36He's bringing her into the lobby right now.
00:05:40They're here already?
00:05:42Quick, take me down there.
00:05:56Whoa, your dad works here?
00:06:02Why's he got you dressed like a street urchin?
00:06:06Wait, is your dad the janitor here?
00:06:08Or, like, the night guard?
00:06:12Nope, my dad is...
00:06:14Aiden 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.
00:06:35Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:36Why is our boss dressed like a mechanic for a blind date?
00:06:40Has 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.
00:06:52Daddy, why are you wearing that?
00:06:56Just moving some heavy boxes for the big bosses today, buddy.
00:07:00Didn'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.
00:07:22Let's see what she's made of.
00:07:23Should we find a place to sit down?
00:07:25Grab a drink?
00:07:27Lead 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.
00:07:44Here comes the complaints.
00:07:46Not a fan of water?
00:07:48Tell you what.
00:07:49It's payday.
00:07:50Let me go grab us some iced teas.
00:07:53Let's splurge.
00:07:55Sit 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 this date goes south.
00:08:14Sir, she just told you not to spend money on her.
00:08:18That's a first.
00:08:21Hey.
00:08:26All right, let's do this properly.
00:08:28I'm Grant Whit-
00:08:29Sir!
00:08:32Whitmore Group.
00:08:34Whitmore Group delivery guy.
00:08:35That's me.
00:08:36Grant the delivery guy.
00:08:38Got it.
00:08:39He doesn't just deliver there.
00:08:41My dad owns the whole building.
00:08:45Whoa.
00:08:46The whole building?
00:08:47That's so cool, bud.
00:08:52Okay, buddy.
00:08:53Let's not exaggerate.
00:08:55He means I work all over the building.
00:08:57Every floor.
00:08:58You know, hauling stuff.
00:08:59A guy with my resume isn't exactly sitting in the boardroom.
00:09:02I'm just a guy doing the heavy lifting.
00:09:04Really?
00:09:05Yeah.
00:09:07I'm 35.
00:09:08His mom passed a long time ago.
00:09:10It's just been the two of us.
00:09:13I bust my back from dawn till dusk.
00:09:15Pull in about three grand a month.
00:09:17But Aiden says he picked you out to be his new mom.
00:09:21So, you think we could make this work?
00:09:24The three of us?
00:09:27Three grand?
00:09:28A month?
00:09:29In this city?
00:09:30And you've got the nerve to bring up marriage?
00:09:38Right on cute.
00:09:39The money always does it.
00:09:42Sorry, buddy.
00:09:43Your mom radar's busted this time.
00:09:45Hello?
00:09:46Are 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.
00:09:55What did she just say?
00:09:57I didn't even finish high school.
00:09:59But I drive an 18-wheeler and pull in eight grand a month.
00:10:03I give my girl a good life.
00:10:05And you want to know what actually makes me mad?
00:10:07It's not your paycheck.
00:10:08It's your attitude.
00:10:14We can break our backs for our kids.
00:10:16But they shouldn't have to suffer with us.
00:10:18Look at him.
00:10:19You bring your boy out here in rags?
00:10:22He's got to walk around like that in front of strangers?
00:10:24The only decent thing on him is the pair of sneakers I bought him.
00:10:29Kids have pride, Grant.
00:10:31That little boy has pride.
00:10:34What kind of father lets his son go out in public like that?
00:10:39Oh, man.
00:10:40She's eating you alive, sir.
00:10:44Yikes.
00:10:45Wife is really letting him have it.
00:10:47We're not married.
00:10:48You want him?
00:10:49Take him.
00:10:51Keep walking.
00:10:59Dad, does she hate me?
00:11:01Okay.
00:11:02Maybe I overplayed the broke card.
00:11:04Nobody 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.
00:11:18You empty this trailer, you get 300 bucks.
00:11:23All of this?
00:11:24By myself?
00:11:25It's 5,000 pounds.
00:11:27Don't be a baby.
00:11:28Earn the cash and go buy your kids some decent clothes.
00:11:32There's your cut for the haul, Claire.
00:11:34Count it if you want.
00:11:35We're good, Lou.
00:11:36I trust you.
00:11:41Seriously, though.
00:11:42Where did you dig this guy up?
00:11:44Looks like he's never worked a day in his life.
00:11:46Been at it all afternoon and barely made a dent.
00:11:50Guy's useless.
00:11:52You tie yourself to a man who can't even lift a box.
00:11:55You're going to be miserable.
00:11:58Should have let me set you up with my guy from the docks.
00:12:00Pulls in 800 a day.
00:12:02Easy.
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.
00:12:26What 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?
00:12:43Just sit down and catch your breath.
00:12:45I'll do the heavy lifting.
00:12:47You're going to move these?
00:12:50What's the alternative?
00:12:51Wait for you?
00:12:52We'd be here until Christmas.
00:12:54I'm the man here.
00:12:55I should be ticked.
00:12:56So what?
00:12:57You think a Y-Bromen 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?
00:13:02Newsflash.
00:13:03Anything you can haul, I can haul just as well.
00:13:05She really isn't like anyone I've ever met.
00:13:09Let me help.
00:13:17Hey, what happened?
00:13:18Let me see.
00:13:20It's nothing.
00:13:21Just a scratch.
00:13:22Don't do that.
00:13:23You want a bacterial infection?
00:13:25Hold still.
00:13:27Next time you get cut, you clean it properly.
00:13:29Don't just ignore it, okay?
00:13:34Claire, why is your face so red?
00:13:37What?
00:13:38No, it's not.
00:13:39It's just, it's really hot in here.
00:13:41I can fan you if you want.
00:13:43Look at you three.
00:13:45Perfect little family.
00:13:47Good hustle today, buddy.
00:13:49Here's your cut.
00:13:52I'll take that.
00:13:53So that's it.
00:13:54She just wanted the 300 bucks.
00:13:56Guess I really played myself.
00:13:58What?
00:13:58You got a problem with that?
00:14:01No problem.
00:14:03Keep it.
00:14:04Good.
00:14:05Because from now on, I handle our family's money.
00:14:08Sure.
00:14:09Whatever you do.
00:14:10Wait.
00:14:11What did you just say?
00:14:12Our family?
00:14:14Our family.
00:14:15She said our family.
00:14:21What exactly does that mean?
00:14:23It means I'm not after your money, Grant.
00:14:25I know what it looked like last night.
00:14:26I'm not going to pretend it didn't.
00:14:27But 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.
00:14:32With Aiden.
00:14:33All 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, I believe her.
00:14:48You two finally on the same page?
00:14:50Good.
00:14:51Because 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.
00:15:00Thank you, Lou.
00:15:02Thanks, Lou.
00:15:03Consider it an early wedding gift.
00:15:05Catch you later.
00:15:06Take 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.
00:15:29As long as you're willing to put in the work, we'll figure the rest out together.
00:15:32She means it.
00:15:34Every woman I've ever known wanted the money, the name, the status.
00:15:37She just wants this.
00:15:39We'll put in the work.
00:15:41Together.
00:15:50All right, 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?
00:16:17Don't just sit there.
00:16:18Say hi to Grant.
00:16:20Hey.
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.
00:16:29Figured you couldn't go wrong with Barbie.
00:16:31Got this for you.
00:16:33Hope you like it.
00:16:34I already have this one.
00:16:38Oh.
00:16:39Uh.
00:16:41It's okay.
00:16:42You didn't know.
00:16:50Fair enough.
00:16:51That was a total amateur move on my part.
00:16:53My 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?
00:17:01What 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.
00:17:11She'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.
00:17:21Interesting kid.
00:17:23Interesting kid.
00:17:27The ultimate SAT mastery bundle?
00:17:31Exactly.
00:17:32I'd rather put this time into something that actually matters for my future.
00:17:36Maya, honey, we've been over this.
00:17:38You're a kid.
00:17:39You're allowed to just be a kid and play.
00:17:40You 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.
00:17:50All right, all right.
00:17:51I'll just sit back and let you take care of everything then.
00:17:53You guys make yourselves at home.
00:17:54I'm going to start dinner.
00:17:55Let me give you a hand with that.
00:17:56Not a chance.
00:17:57You sit.
00:18:03Can we play a game now?
00:18:06Yeah, definitely.
00:18:10Let's do timed practice sections.
00:18:24Can we just turn the TV on just for a second?
00:18:27No, you haven't even finished this section.
00:18:29Look 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 Tudor since day one.
00:18:36Must have chewed through a hundred of them.
00:18:38Finally, someone who can actually keep her in line.
00:18:40All right, clear a space.
00:18:43Soup's up.
00:18:45Whoa, the big pieces.
00:18:49Here you go, Maya.
00:18:51Eat up.
00:18:54Of course, not her own blood.
00:18:56She's always going to play favorites.
00:18:58Did 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.
00:19:05Yes!
00:19:23Thanks, Mom.
00:19:26Thanks, Mom.
00:19:35Ten years, I've kept him isolated.
00:19:38I really thought my money was enough.
00:19:40I was wrong.
00:19:45Hello?
00:19:46No, I am 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.
00:19:53You?
00:19:54Tomorrow?
00:19:55My parents' house?
00:19:56We're getting engaged.
00:20:00Come again?
00:20:01Come again?
00:20:11Tell me we're ready.
00:20:12Ten million in the wire transfer, the deed to the penthouse in the Heights, and three million in custom diamonds.
00:20:17Locked and loaded, sir.
00:20:20You ready to go get your new mom?
00:20:23Let's do it.
00:20:28A bricklater?
00:20:29Making three grand a month?
00:20:31With a ten-year-old kid?
00:20:32Are you out of your mind?
00:20:33I told you, it's handled.
00:20:35He's coming to propose today.
00:20:37Should be hitting the edge of town right about now.
00:20:40Yeah!
00:20:41A broke brickler!
00:20:43Over my dead bite!
00:20:54Beggars can't be choosers, Claire.
00:20:56The guy owns three coal mines.
00:20:57He pulls in seven figures.
00:20:58You 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.
00:21:09From now on, Claire Doyle looks out for Claire Doyle and my daughter.
00:21:12I'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.
00:21:17I 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!
00:21:26I am your father!
00:21:28Stepfather.
00:21:28Let'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.
00:21:33Sip it, Margaret!
00:21:34We 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?
00:21:45I've been taking it for the team my whole life.
00:21:47Walter drilled it into my head since I was ten.
00:21:49I dropped out of high school to pay your tuition.
00:21:50I 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?
00:21:56Or Cody's?
00:21:57You picked my first husband, too, remember?
00:21:58Promised 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 to keep 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
00:22:11up the dirt road right now,
00:22:12huffing and puffing.
00:22:30What is he doing here?
00:22:42Dale, Mr. Sinclair, what an absolute honor.
00:22:45To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:22:46I'm here for Claire, making it official today.
00:22:49Vintage McAllen, imported Cuban cigars,
00:22:51a couple of Rolex.
00:22:51Oh, and the main event,
00:22:52a cashier's check for $880,000.
00:22:55Back off.
00:22:56Nobody's selling me today.
00:22:57If you're so desperate for his money,
00:22:59go divorce my brother and marry him yourself.
00:23:02Excuse me?
00:23:03Oh, my God.
00:23:04Dale, you are way too generous.
00:23:05A catch like you?
00:23:06Claire would be out of her mind
00:23:07not 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?
00:23:21Marry 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.
00:23:29I'm giving you a way out.
00:23:33We don't need your money.
00:23:36Keep it.
00:24:00Sinclair!
00:24:04Get back here.
00:24:05We're not finished.
00:24:14Look, Dale.
00:24:15You'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.
00:24:23The 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.
00:24:33She'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,
00:24:41there 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!
00:24:46Cut 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.
00:24:51You little brat.
00:24:53I'll teach you some respect.
00:24:55Stop it!
00:24:56Just let her marry who she wants.
00:25:03You sold her to a gambling addict
00:25:04the first time just to get a payout.
00:25:06You ruined her life once.
00:25:08I won't let you do it again.
00:25:10Shut your mouth!
00:25:13Grandma!
00:25:17Don't you touch her!
00:25:19You put one more hand on her
00:25:20and I swear to God!
00:25:24She is your wife.
00:25:26She defended me.
00:25:28You hit her for that.
00:25:29I will never forgive you for this.
00:25:32Not ever.
00:25:33Not ever.
00:25:40You want to hit my mother?
00:25:42Fine!
00:25:43Nobody walks out of this yard today!
00:25:45No!
00:25:46No!
00:25:47No!
00:25:47No!
00:25:47No!
00:25:48No!
00:25:49No!
00:25:50Are you crazy?
00:25:51Put that down!
00:25:54Claire, come on.
00:25:54You're...
00:25:55You're being totally unreasonable right now.
00:26:01You beat my mother
00:26:02and you want to talk to me
00:26:02about being reasonable?
00:26:04Bullshit!
00:26:04Get 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!
00:26:10We didn't even do anything wrong!
00:26:12You're not going to do anything!
00:26:16Not going to apologize.
00:26:18Right?
00:26:19Good.
00:26:20Help!
00:26:24Help!
00:26:32You pull a weapon on your own father?
00:26:34You're out of your damn mind!
00:26:41Walter Doyle, my mother swallowed your garbage for 30 years and I am done swallowing it for
00:26:47her. You are going to look her in the eye and apologize right now. Claire, come on. Put it
00:26:51down. Claire, please drop it. Don't do this. Apologize. Say it to her. Girl's completely
00:27:03snapped. Nope. No way. You bring a psycho like that into the house, you don't wake up in
00:27:08the morning. You folks, you work this out yourselves. I'm out. Dale, wait! You crazy
00:27:15bitch. You just scared off the only money this trash help is ever going to see. What
00:27:19kind of man is ever going to want a psychotic, broken down spinster like you?
00:27:40I want her. I want her. Look at the cut on that jacket. That's real money. Makes Dale
00:27:56look like a cheap joke, doesn't it? Dressed up like a billionaire. Bet he still hauls bricks
00:28:01for a living. Please. He probably rented the whole get it just to come down here and play
00:28:05the big shot. Mom! Grandma! Grandpa! Oh, look at you. Aren't you sweet? Hold it right
00:28:16there, kid. I'm nobody's grandpa yet. Uncle Cody, Aunt Brittany. Uh, yeah. Hey. Aiden, get
00:28:26over here. Those are the bad guys. Mr. Doyle. Mrs. Hidges. I came here today to formally
00:28:32ask for Claire's hand. I've prepared. Let's skip the polite garbage. You want my daughter?
00:28:34We do things a certain way around here. It's 50,000 for the dowry, plus another 20,000 to
00:28:38help my boy build a new house. 70 grand total. Unbelievable. We brought 8 million in the trunk
00:28:41and these idiots are holding around walk right back out for 70 grand. So, just 70,000? That's
00:28:46all you want? Dad, you're pushing it. A construction worker doesn't have 700 grand. You already scared
00:28:51off the factory manager. If this guy walks, we get nothing. Tell you what, I'm in a Friedenig
00:28:55mood today. Let's call it a family discount. Half a million flat. A discount? He's auctioning
00:28:58off his own kid. Did it before, too. Sold her to that deadbeat drunk for 100 grand the first
00:29:02time around. Now he wants five times that? For a divorced woman with baggage, she ain't
00:29:05worth half a million. Boss, these people are absolute vultures. We're not actually indulging
00:29:10this, are we? I'm Marion Claire. Whatever she wants to do, we do. Walter Doyle! Half a million
00:29:18dollars? Are you out of your mind? She's your daughter, not a piece of livestock. I put
00:29:22a roof over her head for 20 years. I'm collecting my return on investment. It's fine, Mom. Let
00:29:30him have it. Pay the man. Unbelievable. Rewarding these parasites here. Put the plastic away.
00:29:37That's too much effort. I got this. Five bucks. That's what I'm worth to you? Fine. I'm buying
00:29:51myself back. Five dollars? What the hell is this supposed to mean? It means I'm done.
00:30:10I bled for this family since I was a kid. Five bucks? That's my buyout. As of right now,
00:30:13I don't owe you a single cent and we are no longer family. Too ungrateful little brat.
00:30:17I put a roof over your head. I raised you. Save it. You didn't raise me. Every dime
00:30:21you had went straight to Cody. The only person in this house who ever gave a damn about me
00:30:25was Mom. She washed my clothes. She cooked my meals. She slipped me whatever spare chain
00:30:28she could hide from you. You? You treated the stray dogs in the alley better than you ever
00:30:31treated me. And I'm not just cutting ties. I'm taking my mother. She's coming to live
00:30:34with me. Her days of being your unpaid servant and walking on eggshells around you are over.
00:30:39Let's go, Mom. Boss, she does not take prisoners. Told you I had good taste. Let's go.
00:30:50Dad, wait. If Mom leaves, who's going to cook dinner tonight? Let the country bumpkin throw
00:30:55her little tantrum. She doesn't have a dime to her name. Don't worry about it, Cody. She'll
00:31:00be back by dinner. Wait right here, Mom. I'll go pull the rig around. No need. We're taking
00:31:09this one. Whose is that? A Rolls? That's a half million dollar car. It's mine. I'll explain
00:31:16later. Just get in. Hold it right there. All right, you've had your little tantrum. Now
00:31:24get back inside and start dinner. Yeah, Mom. Dad's practically begging. Don't push it. Besides,
00:31:28what kind of life are you going to have with this broke brick waiter? That car's a rental,
00:31:30honey. I can smell the hertz on it. Exactly. You guys are going to be eating breadcrumbs by
00:31:33Tuesday. Listen to me very carefully. She's with us now. I'm going to give them a life
00:31:37you can't even comprehend. Stay out of our way. You? Please. You haul boxes for minimum
00:31:41wage and you've got three mouths to feed now. You'll be living in a cardboard box.
00:31:45Enough of this garbage. Get in the house now.
00:31:50Go back yourself. I'm done.
00:31:59So who's cooking tonight?
00:32:05Dad, I think she actually left.
00:32:07Great going, Walter. You just had to push her. Now who's making dinner?
00:32:12Who's making it? You are! Get in the kitchen!
00:32:15Excuse me? I don't cook. Cody, tell him!
00:32:19I should have asked you first. Dragging my mum into this. Are you furious?
00:32:23Furious about what? Your family is my family, Claire.
00:32:28That's five mouths to feed now. I'm going to have to pick up double shifts at the yard just
00:32:32to keep the lights on. You won't have to worry anymore.
00:32:34What does that mean? Where are we even going? We're going to our new home.
00:32:40Don't cry, Grandma. We're safe now. I'm not sad, sweetheart. It's just 30 years.
00:32:45It's the first time I feel like I can actually breathe.
00:32:48When I get bigger, I'm going to make a million dollars. I'll buy you the biggest house in
00:32:51the world, Grandma. Nobody will ever yell at you again.
00:32:53You're a good girl, Maya. Aiden, honey, is your dad's place going to fit all of us? I
00:32:58don't want to crowd you. I can always find a friend's couch for a few weeks.
00:33:00Trust me, Grandma. We've got room.
00:33:13Grandma, this is home now.
00:33:16Mom, Maya, you made it. Let's get you inside.
00:33:20Grant, honey, where did Claire go? She was in the car when we left. I didn't see her get out.
00:33:26Right. About that.
00:33:28Frank, are you serious? Eight grand for one run? Yes, I'll take it. Thank you.
00:33:33Just bagged a massive long haul. 2,000 miles, 8,000 brucks. I need to go load the rig right
00:33:37now. Grant, pull over.
00:33:40Claire, wait. You don't have to kill yourself driving trucks anymore. I'm actually...
00:33:44Babe, we've got a whole house of people depending on us now. If I don't hustle,
00:33:47how are we going to feed them? I'll only be gone a few days. Just take good care of my
00:33:50mom
00:33:50and Maya for me, okay? Hey, be careful out there. Always.
00:33:59Let's head inside and get settled.
00:34:02Grant, did you actually buy this place?
00:34:09Mr. Whitmerd, everything is prepared as you requested.
00:34:16Welcome home, Margaret. You and Maya can finally relax. This is all yours now.
00:34:21But Claire always said you loaded boxes at a warehouse. And yet the butler just called
00:34:25you Mr. Whitmore like you own the whole county, which I'm starting to think you do.
00:34:28Grandma, please, look at him. You're not a mover. You're the boss, aren't you?
00:34:31That obvious, huh? Guess the butler already did the introduction for me.
00:34:35I don't just study math all day. I watch TV. The undercover billionaire stepdad is a classic
00:34:39trope. A boss? Wait, so you make, what, 10,000 a month? Let's just say I can keep the lights
00:34:45on for
00:34:45us. Mom still thinks we're completely broke. She's out there hauling freight right now. So
00:34:48when are you telling mom the truth? As soon as she finishes this run, I'll come clean. Until then,
00:34:52just let yourselves be spoiled. Welcome home, madam.
00:35:09Gotta make enough for the family. Time to roll.
00:35:18Doyle, you're putting us in an awkward position. Can't you just sit down and have a proper meal?
00:35:22A dollar's a dollar, Mac. You guys want to waste time at a diner, go ahead. I'm on the clock.
00:35:26You're putting us in an awkward position. Can't you just sit down and have a proper meal?
00:35:30Got mouths to feed. I push through a few more of these long hauls. My mom and my kid can
00:35:34actually
00:35:34breathe for a minute. Well done, girl. Two days since I called. Hope mom's holding up okay with
00:35:40everything. Ma'am, your daughter is calling. Hey, sweetie. Who is this?
00:36:02It's your mother, sweetheart. Mom, why are you dressed like that? Where are you right now?
00:36:09Oh, just home. Grant? Grant Whitmore? The guy who hauls boxes for three grand a month? He got you a
00:36:16mansion with a staff? Mom, are you being scammed right now? Oh, stop it. It's your husband. He set
00:36:20all this up. A few days ago, I was still scrubbing floors for Walter out in the country. I've never
00:36:25seen a house like this, Claire. We've got maids, honey. Maids. You walked out on Walter just a few days
00:36:29ago. What? Did Grant win the lottery while I wasn't looking? Why would I lie? I texted
00:36:33you the address. Just finish your route and come see for yourself. Now let me go. My neck
00:36:36massage is starting. Mom, wait. Don't hang. There is no way that was real.
00:36:46This, this is the address.
00:36:51Okay. Either Grant hit the lottery or something's very wrong.
00:36:57Skyline Estates? Mom definitely copy-pasted the wrong zip code.
00:37:06Hey, done with your route? Grant, listen. Mom sent me an address for the new place. I'm
00:37:10sitting outside something called Skyline Estates. There are literal fountains out here.
00:37:13Tell me she made a typo. No typo. Just go up and knock. I'll be home soon to explain everything,
00:37:17okay? See you in a bit. Are they pranking me? Whatever. Let's just get this over with.
00:37:29Can I help you? I'm looking for my mom. Your mom? Yeah. Margaret Hicks and my daughter,
00:37:36Maya Doyle. Are they inside? Oh, yes, ma'am. Let me go get them.
00:37:41No way. They're actually in there? I asked Grant to keep an eye on them and he stashed them in
00:37:46a
00:37:46mansion. What did he do? Rob a bank? Hit the Powerball? Mom's here. Oh, good. You found it.
00:37:56What? Why are you dressed like that? What are you wearing? Oh, it's my uniform, sweetie.
00:38:03Your uniform? Yeah. We actually asked if we could help out around the place. We didn't want to just
00:38:07sit here doing nothing. Housekeeping, dusting, that sort of thing. Let me get this straight.
00:38:11You're living in a multi-million dollar mansion and you volunteer to scrub the floors?
00:38:15Then what's she wearing? I'm the study buddy. Aiden asked me herself. I get to read with the
00:38:19young lady of the house during my break. She's actually really sweet. Hey, we don't pay you
00:38:23to stand around chatting. Hurry up. And you, get back to the study room. Right away, ma'am. Sorry.
00:38:31Hey, you made it. You want hot pot tonight? Oh, wait. I've been out there hauling freight for weeks,
00:38:37breaking my back. And I come home to find my mom and my daughter running around in uniforms in your
00:38:41house. Did you even try to stop them? You've got 10 minutes. Start talking. They insisted. I told
00:38:46them they didn't have to. Your mom said she'd go crazy just sitting around and Maya latched on to
00:38:49Aiden the first day. Nine minutes. Maya, help me out. Your mom gets back tomorrow. Do I go with the
00:38:57diamond ring or the necklace? If you want to keep the dad title, you won't buy a single thing. Wait,
00:39:02why?
00:39:02My mom despises liars. If she finds out you've been faking this whole poor guy routine,
00:39:06you're dead meat. I need to save. Fast. Sweetheart, don't be mad at him. I was just
00:39:11going stragrazy at home. Figured I'd pick up a few shifts, help out with the groceries.
00:39:13Exactly. And I'm just here for the academics. Tutoring rich kids is basically my hobby.
00:39:17Grant's been working himself to the bone, Claire. Taking every delivery job he can get,
00:39:20sweating through his shirts just to save up a few bucks. Save up? Save up for what? I'm the one
00:39:23keeping
00:39:23the lights on. To buy you this. You, you bought this for me? We kind of skipped the whole wedding
00:39:37part. You still deserve the rock. Grant, what were you thinking? We can't afford this kind
00:39:42of luxury. Okay, I'm not going to lie. It looks incredible. How much was it?
00:39:49It wasn't bad. Two grand. Two grand? Are you out of your mind? That's a fortune.
00:39:54If I told her it was 20 million, she'd literally skin me alive. Yeah, for my own survival,
00:39:59the billionaire secret stays in the vault. You're an idiot, but you're my idiot.
00:40:03Don't mention it. Whatever you want, I'll get it for you.
00:40:07Dad, I cleared out the recycling for the whole block. Oh my God, you sent the poor kid out
00:40:12to dig through the trash? We are taking this bit way too far. Hey, hey, it's honest work.
00:40:16As long as we all pull our weight and stick together, this family is going to be just fine.
00:40:20You're right. We're going to make it work.
00:40:25Oh, thank God, Mr. Grant Whitmore. Please, sir, I'm begging you. Just give Starlight Group
00:40:30one chance to partner with you. You called him Grant Whitmore?
00:40:37Look, Claire, I'm kind of a legend in the freight game. Independent contractor,
00:40:40basically the CEO of lifting heavy things. The CEO of lifting, right. So what was that
00:40:44partnership he was just begging you for? Oh, that? He's got a massive warehouse clear
00:40:47out, needs the best back in the business, had to track me down personally. He drove a luxury
00:40:50sedan all the way out here just to hire one guy to move boxes? I'm very efficient. Five-star
00:40:54rating. Anyway, you go warm up the truck. I'll lock down the logistics with Mr. Banker right
00:40:57here. Exactly. So, Mr. Whitmore, we have an agreement on the heavy lifting? You got it. We'll talk
00:41:03boxes tomorrow. I just locked a partnership with Whitmore Group? Hell yes! That shoebox you're
00:41:15renting barely fits a twin bed. Just pack your stuff and bring the kid here. It's a dump,
00:41:20but it beats sleeping on top of each other. I'd like that. Mom, your phone's going off.
00:41:27Ryan Ashford? My dad? What the hell does he want from me now?
00:41:34What do you want? Put Maya on. I didn't call to hear your voice.
00:41:38Feelings mutual. Maya, it's your father.
00:41:45Hi, Dad. Okay, I'll think about it.
00:41:53Hey, what did he say? Nothing. He's getting married. He wants me at the wedding. The absolute
00:41:57nerve of that man. Spent years drinking his paychecks and gambling away. The rent never
00:42:00gave a damn about this girl. Now he wants her playing prop at his shiny new wedding? Look
00:42:03at me. Do you want to go? No. You sure? Because if you want to go, I'm taking you. We'll
00:42:09walk
00:42:09right in there and see exactly what kind of trash life your deadbeat dad is living these
00:42:12days. Okay. Good. Get back to your homework. Well, well, if it isn't my lovely ex-wife,
00:42:28Claire, did you get lost on your way to the trailer pack? Babe, who is this? Allow me to
00:42:34introduce my beautiful wife, Sloane. And Sloane, this is Claire, the tomboy and ex I told you
00:42:38about. Oh, the truck driver. Wow. You really went all out for a wedding, didn't you? Love
00:42:43the casual look. I didn't send you an invite, Claire. Figured seeing me upgrade to someone
00:42:46this gorgeous would just be too hard on you. Didn't want you getting jealous. Don't flatter
00:42:49yourself, Ryan. You aren't the only one who moved on. I just got remarried myself. The
00:42:53only reason I stepped foot in this circus is because my daughter wanted to come. Dad.
00:42:57Well, look at you. You've gotten so tall, Maya. Hang on a second. Here. Daddy got you a special
00:43:03present. I don't even like cars, but he actually got me something. He still cares. Thank you, Dad.
00:43:10Hey, why does she have my own junk? I threw that in the trash.
00:43:20Hey, buddy, it's okay. You know what, Maya? You didn't even like this clunky old thing anyway,
00:43:24right? Tell you what, Daddy will get you the brand new model next week. We'll just let him keep this
00:43:27one. But you said you went to the store and picked it out just for me. I did. And your
00:43:31brother,
00:43:31Tansy, barely even touched the box. It's basically brand new.
00:43:36Unbelievable. For a second there, I actually thought you were trying to be a real father
00:43:39today, but you're just palling off his hand-me-down trash on your own kid. Oh, please. She should be
00:43:42grateful she's getting anything. I hear that new guy you're dragging around hauls boxes for a
00:43:45living. A toy like this is what half-fored it. Beggars can't be choosers, Claire. What my husband
00:43:48makes is none of your business. But you, Ryan, you abandon your actual flesh and blood just to play
00:43:51daddy to a kid when he takes your last name and father of the year? And you think you can
00:43:54toss my
00:43:54daughter his garbage like it's charity? Keep your voice down, Claire. Watch your mouth. Oh, I haven't even started.
00:43:59You should be on your knees thanking me it's your wedding day or I'd air out exactly...
00:44:02You're just gonna stand there? He's terrorizing your daughter and you do nothing.
00:44:05Careful, buddy. Don't hurt your foot on that junk. Daddy promises. From now on,
00:44:09even your garbage stays yours. Nobody else gets it. My daddy buys me whatever I want.
00:44:13You don't even have one. Mr. Whitfield, are you absolutely sure you shouldn't be at that wedding
00:44:18with him? She's facing her biological father today. It's not my place to intrude. But the guy's a piece
00:44:24of work. He treats that little girl like dirt. You don't understand how blood works, Dean. It
00:44:28leaves a mark. No matter how much he fails her, in her heart, he's still the man who gave her
00:44:31life.
00:44:32Nobody gets to just umberride that. Not even me. Oh, don't look so sour. The boy's just telling
00:44:36the truth. Poor little orphan. You think that new guy your mom dragged in actually cares about you?
00:44:40You're not his blood. Give it a month and he'll kick you out to beg on the street.
00:44:43You're right. I shouldn't hit a child. Are you out of your mind? You just hit me?
00:44:50Talk to my kid like that again. See what I do.
00:44:54Are you just gonna stand there? Do something about this psycho!
00:44:58What is wrong with you, Claire? Always with the hands. You're completely uncraned. Kicking you to
00:45:02the curb was the best move I ever made. Best move you made? Let's get the history straight,
00:45:07Ryan. You were drowning in poker debt. Bleeding my paychecks dried. You didn't leave. I threw your
00:45:12deadbeat ass out. Wait, he was broke? I thought he was old money. You're lying! Shut your mouth
00:45:20and apologized to my wife right now! I'll apologize the second you two apologized to Maya.
00:45:26In her dreams! You laid hands on me, Claire. You're gonna pay for this.
00:45:33Whoa, watch out! That's the VIP reserve from the penthouse! It's a six million dollar bottle!
00:45:47What is wrong with you, Claire? You just wrecked the hotel's entire display!
00:45:52Hey, buddy. How much was that thing, anyway?
00:45:57Six million dollars.
00:46:02Six million? What's in it? Unicorn tears? For grape juice?
00:46:08Right this way, Mr. Ellenston. Your 82 Lafotte is perfectly secure. We're having it brought up to
00:46:12your private suite now. My wine. This is your idea of perfectly secure? Mr. Ellenston, please. I am so
00:46:21sorry. If you'll just head up to the suite, I swear I will handle this immediately. Find out! Who did
00:46:27this? Her! She knocked the whole tray over! We all saw it! Exactly. It was all her. My mom
00:46:34didn't do it. She was pushed.
00:46:38Security!
00:46:39Pull the footage. Now!
00:46:43Security. Pull the overhead feed to this tablet. Right now.
00:46:49Wait, what? That's not how this is supposed to work.
00:46:52Oh, come on. Is that really necessary? Those lenses are always blurry anyway. You have 50 eyewitnesses
00:46:57right here who saw her smash it. Exactly. Don't waste Mr. Elliston's time with technical difficulties.
00:47:02We all know who did it. I think we have time for a quick movie. What? You think I'm some
00:47:06brain-dead soap opera villain who refuses to look at the actual evidence? Play the tape.
00:47:19Crystal clear. You tripped the waiter. She hit the rack. Shared liability. Three million
00:47:24dollars each. Six million total. We take wire transfers.
00:47:31Congratulations. You played yourself.
00:47:33Three hundred thousand is insane. Come on. There has to be some kind of discount for a
00:47:37miser standing like this. Big talker suddenly lost his wallet. Swipe the card, Ryan. We're getting
00:47:42bored. Shut your mouth, Claire. You think this is funny? You're on the hook for the exact same amount.
00:47:47So? I'll pay the second you do. Worst case, we share a sell.
00:47:52I am done negotiating. You pay right now, or I dial 911 and the police can explain the bill to
00:47:57you.
00:47:57No. No cops. I got it. Here.
00:48:04Transaction approved. Three hundred thousand cleared.
00:48:08You actually had that kind of cash sitting around?
00:48:13Damn right I do. Since I dumped you, I've actually been able to build real wealth.
00:48:18Three hundred thousand? I'll make that back in a year.
00:48:21Your turn, sweetheart. Let's see you match it.
00:48:24How will you be settling your three hundred thousand? Card or wire?
00:48:37You said you'd pay if we'd paid, Claire. We just cleared our tab. Time to pony up.
00:48:41Just give me a second.
00:48:44Forty-two bucks. Right. Let me just pull three million dollars out of thin air.
00:48:48What's the holder? We don't have all day for you to count your pennies.
00:48:52You know what? I'm tapping out.
00:48:55Grant, it's mom. You need to get here right now.
00:49:01I can't pay it. Take me to jail.
00:49:03Mom, no!
00:49:07Hey, look at me. While I'm in there, you do your homework, okay?
00:49:11Make sure you actually eat your dinner. I'll do my time and come right back to you.
00:49:14Be good.
00:49:16Stop right there!
00:49:20Stop right there!
00:49:25Grant! What are you doing here?
00:49:29You were really going to let them haul you off to jail before calling your own husband?
00:49:35Thank God someone in this family knows how to use a phone.
00:49:39This is the new guy? Look at him. He's got less in his pockets than you do, Claire.
00:49:43What's a guy in a dirty shirt going to do to save you?
00:49:45You'd be surprised what I can do.
00:49:47Grant, stop. The wine we broke, it's $3 million.
00:49:51I said I've got it. Who owns the bottle?
00:49:55Mr. Victor Ellenson of Star Group.
00:49:58Star Group. Perfect. Where is he?
00:50:03The VIP room down the hall.
00:50:07Give me a minute. I'll be right back.
00:50:11As if the CEO of Star Group is going to give a day laborer the time of day.
00:50:16Let him dig his own grave. I can't wait to see how this plays out.
00:50:21He's been in there way too long. Why hasn't he come out?
00:50:24Take a breath, Mom. It's just three guys. Grant's probably wrapping it up right now.
00:50:29Wrapping it up? Please. He's probably on his hands and knees in there begging them not to break his legs.
00:50:34That's the reality of being broke, Claire. When you can't afford the check, you pay with your dignity.
00:50:41Oh, hell no. You can push me around all you want, but nobody humiliates my man.
00:50:45Please, gentlemen. Three million is impossible. I don't have a dime to my name. Have mercy!
00:50:57Mom?
00:50:59We are not missing this. Come on.
00:51:06Grant! I'm getting you out of here!
00:51:10Grant! I got you! Hang on! What the hell is going on in here?
00:51:13Hey, nothing crazy. Just having a little heart-to-heart with the guys.
00:51:15Turns out they're incredibly reasonable. They decided to waive the damages entirely. Isn't that right, gentlemen?
00:51:18Absolutely. Mr. Whitmore here. He really put things in perspective for me. Opened my eyes.
00:51:21I pull in eight figures a year, throwing a tantrum over three million. It's embarrassing. Completely petty of me.
00:51:25One hundred percent. Ms. Doyles, we are so incredibly sorry for the misunderstanding.
00:51:29Are you kidding me? She gets a free pass? What about the three million we just wired you?
00:51:32Yeah, Craig, since everybody's in such a forgiving mood today, we'll just take our refund now.
00:51:37A refund? Right, of course.
00:51:41Not a chance in hell.
00:51:43A refund? Not a chance. Consider that three million in educational expense. Maybe it'll teach your wife to keep her
00:51:49hands to herself.
00:51:49Are you kidding me? Why do they get a free pass?
00:51:52Shut your mouth. You want him to come after us for the full six million? Drop it. Everything's settled. Let's
00:51:57get out of here.
00:51:58I'll be damned. Guess some of these corporate guys actually have a conscience. Just wipe three million off the board
00:52:02like it was nothing.
00:52:03Maya, wait!
00:52:04Ryan Ashford? What the hell do you want now?
00:52:06I just want a minute with my girl. Maya, honey, listen to me. Next time I see you, I'll buy
00:52:10you that brand new toy you wanted. The really expensive one, okay?
00:52:12I don't play with toys anymore. And I already have a dad now. He gets me whatever I need. Keep
00:52:17your money for your new baby. I don't want it. Let's go home, Dad.
00:52:21You got it. Let's go.
00:52:23You ghosted her for her entire childhood, Ryan? Nobody waits around forever. Not even your own flesh and blood.
00:52:28She's gone. Way too close. We were about five seconds away from getting blacklisted by the entire Whitmore group.
00:52:34You're telling me, why the hell does a guy who owns half the industry dress like a day laborer? It
00:52:38must be some kind of weird roleplay thing with a wife.
00:52:44Hey, back there in the room, did you really mean it when you called me Dad?
00:52:50Well, yeah. You're my dad, aren't you?
00:52:54Yes!
00:52:56You've been a father for ten years. Try to play it cool.
00:52:58You don't get it. A decade with a boy is one thing. A little girl calling me Dad, a whole
00:53:03new ballgame.
00:53:05Dad? Can you buy me something?
00:53:07Anything. Name your price, kiddo. The sky's the limit.
00:53:10Ten full sets of the state-standardized prep exams. The thick ones with the answer keys in the back.
00:53:15Uh, what?
00:53:17Your mom didn't show up again, Aiden. Are you sure you even have one?
00:53:23Aiden!
00:53:25Mom! My mom is here! Mom!
00:53:29Finished my route early. Figured I'd come grab you.
00:53:34Delivery for you.
00:53:35No way! Dad never lets me eat stuff from the street carts. He says it's a health code violation.
00:53:40Please. A little street dirt builds the immune system. Try it. It's pure sugar.
00:53:47Aiden? Is that your mom?
00:53:50Yep. She drove her truck straight from work to get me, and she bought me this.
00:53:57The place looks like a literal palace. What do they even teach you in there? How to be royalties?
00:54:01Half those words are in Latin. Who reads Latin anymore?
00:54:04Dad says it's an exclusive academy for the global elite.
00:54:08The global elite, huh? Tell your dad to lay off the sci-fi movies.
00:54:13Claire? Claire Doyle? Oh my God, is that really you?
00:54:21Diane Sullivan?
00:54:22It's been what? Ten years? You look exactly the... Well, you look exactly the same.
00:54:29Wait. Your kid goes here?
00:54:31Claire, this is an elite academy. Base tuition alone is $2 million a year.
00:54:36A dock worker doesn't... I mean, that doesn't... How is that possible? Who's actually paying for this?
00:54:42Wait. $2 million?
00:54:43Base. Add in the meal plans, the equestrian fees, the mandatory annual fund. You're looking at over $3 million a
00:54:49year.
00:54:49$3 million?
00:54:51Okay, Diane, very funny. You trying to scare the blue calls, girl? Is 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 if we worked for eight lifetimes.
00:55:03Eight lifetimes, Diane!
00:55:10Hey, you're back late. I saved you some...
00:55:12$3 million.
00:55:14What?
00:55:16$3 million, Grant. A year. That's what Aiden's school costs.
00:55:21I ran into an old friend at the gates today. She knows the place.
00:55:24I know about the rolls.
00:55:26I've seen Skyline Estates.
00:55:28I've been telling myself there was some explanation I wasn't ready to ask for,
00:55:31but $3 million a year for a school?
00:55:33I need you to say it out loud, right now!
00:55:36Claire, sit down.
00:55:37Don't tell me to sit down. Say it!
00:55:42The school belongs to me. The car is mine. The estate is mine. All of it.
00:55:48I knew something was off. I just didn't want to believe how far off it was.
00:55:52I 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.
00:56:02You 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.
00:56:14And 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!
00:56:21We are.
00:56:22Mommy, don't hit him.
00:56:24Daddy didn't mean to be bad. He 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.
00:56:35His hands bled for a whole week.
00:56:38He said it was worth it because you bought him a Band-Aid.
00:56:42You 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.
00:56:59Are 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, there's one more thing.
00:57:13And it's not about the money.
00:57:14What now?
00:57:15You on the moon too?
00:57:17It's about Aiden.
00:57:18His birth mother was a Vandergruf.
00:57:20The eldest daughter of the main bloodline.
00:57:22She died the night he was born.
00:57:24Vandergruf?
00:57:25Wait, 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.
00:57:32I built the Whitmore Empire to be a wall between him and them.
00:57:35I 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
00:57:56out 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
00:58:04family down to the studs.
00:58:06Claire.
00:58:06Listen 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
00:58:18straight 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.
00:58:44You have three seconds to give me a name before I break your jaw.
00:58:48One.
00:58:48Margaret!
00:58:49It's Margaret Vandergruf.
00:58:52She froze my accounts.
00:58:53She dug up the offshore discrepancies from five years ago and threatened to take my branch's
00:58:57equity to zero.
00:58:57I had no choice.
00:58:58She doesn't give a damn about family bloodlines or bringing the boy home.
00:59:01Then what does she want?
00:59:03The inheritance rights.
00:59:04If 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.
00:59:15The dummy accounts are all in there.
00:59:17I'm dead if she finds out I came here.
00:59:23Let him go.
00:59:24Get inside.
00:59:29Shell Companies.
00:59:30She'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.
00:59:36She'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.
00:59:43If 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 obedece the empty warehouses and she goes to federal prison.
00:59:51You think she left the 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.
01:00:25Who?
01:00:26The signature is just one letter.
01:00:27It's G.
01:00:35G.
01:00:36As in Grant.
01:00:37Fifty containers.
01:00:39Bypassed customs.
01:00:40Shipped 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.
01:00:49044.
01:00:50What does that mean?
01:00:52It's a Vandergruf executive override.
01:00:53I haven't had access to that tier of their network in ten years.
01:00:56But you know who does?
01:00:59Margaret.
01:01:01She didn't just smuggle family assets to line her own pockets.
01:01:03She 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.
01:01:18She wants to play dirty for your kid?
01:01:20Let's show her what a real truck driver can do.
01:01:23Print every single page.
01:01:24It's time for a family reunion.
01:01:31I called a family hearing, Grant.
01:01:33Why did you bring the hired help?
01:01:34We don't let the staff track mud on the Persian rugs.
01:01:38Mud washes out.
01:01:39Not 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.
01:01:49Look 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.
01:02:15You have a lot of money, and you smell like expensive perfume.
01:02:19Exactly, 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.
01:02:50I'll have this truck-driving trash thrown in a cell for kidnapping by morning.
01:02:55Brett!
01:02:55Did you hear me?
01:02:56Call them!
01:02:57No.
01:02:58Excuse me?
01:03:00The inheritance or your freedom.
01:03:03Pick one, Margaret Vandergrift.
01:03:06Aiden, 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.
01:03:17You sold me out?
01:03:18I stopped digging my own grave.
01:03:28I'm stepping down from the subsidiary.
01:03:30I'm done with the games, Grant.
01:03:31Keep your shares, Brett.
01:03:32Just stay out of the driver's seat.
01:03:34Understood.
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.
01:03:51You have to be nice to me.
01:03:53Keep dreaming, squirt.
01:03:54Let's go.
01:03:59You okay?
01:04:00Better than okay.
01:04:01Though 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?
01:04:10I 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.
01:04:25Good answer.
01:04:25Good answer.
