00:01:39No, Rachel. You're too good. Hey
00:01:41I was covering for her Rachel's got class you just a thief from the gutter
00:01:47No, it wasn't me
00:01:49I
00:01:50How dare you lie
00:01:51Rachel may be adopted, but she has grace
00:01:54Poise
00:01:56Everything you lack
00:01:58Emma, please
00:02:00Don't make this worse
00:02:03She's already hurt because of you. What more do you want?
00:02:06She's lying. It was her to me
00:02:08You're no daughter of mine
00:02:10You're no daughter of mine
00:02:11Get out
00:02:14Mom
00:02:15I'm your daughter
00:02:17And so what?
00:02:19Rachel has everything you're not
00:02:21You should have left your way
00:02:23Mom
00:02:24You should have stayed with your father
00:02:29You should have stayed with your foster family.
00:02:55Your mom and dad love me.
00:02:57Your brothers trust me.
00:02:59Everything that was yours, it's mine now.
00:03:07There's another life.
00:03:10Never forgive them.
00:03:14My child, I've heard you.
00:03:17May your soul feel salvation and solace.
00:03:22You're the daughter of mine.
00:03:24Get out.
00:03:25I was dead.
00:03:38How is this even possible?
00:03:40What's with the theatrics?
00:03:42You have no class.
00:03:44No grace.
00:03:46Nothing like Rachel.
00:03:47Dad, I don't believe I'm always being deliberate.
00:03:50She hurt you?
00:03:52Why are you explaining for her?
00:03:54Ever since you came back, all you've done is steal and bully.
00:03:57Is that the education you've got from your foster family?
00:03:59So be it.
00:04:01I will never explain myself.
00:04:03That's for stealing my family.
00:04:09And that's for twisting the truth.
00:04:11Emma, what the hell are you doing?
00:04:13Stop this madness.
00:04:14Why should I?
00:04:15You'll only ever believe Rachel anyway.
00:04:18So fine.
00:04:19Why not make all the lies about me the truth?
00:04:21You little brat.
00:04:25How dare you?
00:04:27If you believe all her lies so easily, I will never be like her.
00:04:30Then get out of my house.
00:04:34We should have left you the rotten slums.
00:04:40Fine.
00:04:41I'm the stain on your perfect family, right?
00:04:44Then let me make it official.
00:04:46From now on, I have no family.
00:04:55You should have stayed in the slums where you belong.
00:04:58I'm just a thief from the gutter.
00:05:00Rachel has everything you're not.
00:05:02Then let's go home.
00:05:32I made you some tea.
00:05:42Thanks, honey.
00:05:43You're welcome.
00:05:46Hi.
00:05:47You moved here just for me?
00:05:50Of course we did, Emma.
00:05:52You're our daughter.
00:05:54It doesn't matter if it's not by blood.
00:05:56I knew it.
00:05:57The walkers didn't treat you right.
00:05:59Just look at you.
00:06:00What kind of family lets this happen?
00:06:03They did this to you?
00:06:05I'll make them pay.
00:06:06No, Daniel.
00:06:08It's over.
00:06:09I've already cut ties.
00:06:11It's not worth it.
00:06:13Alright.
00:06:15So what now?
00:06:15I've applied to Harvard.
00:06:21I'm just waiting to hear back.
00:06:23That's not easy.
00:06:26I know.
00:06:28But I'm confident I can make you guys proud.
00:06:31Oh, Emma.
00:06:31Please, don't stress yourself.
00:06:34You're brilliant.
00:06:35You've always been brilliant.
00:06:36You're brilliant.
00:06:37You'll get it.
00:06:41I know you will.
00:06:46Tell me about the mines.
00:06:48Well, the weather.
00:06:49Everything in South America.
00:06:55Where's Emma?
00:06:56Why do you care?
00:06:58She's just some slum rat.
00:07:00Just stole from us.
00:07:01Then hit Rachel.
00:07:02And then ran off.
00:07:04Good riddance.
00:07:07She's about to graduate.
00:07:08And she just left?
00:07:15Show me your room.
00:07:16What the hell?
00:07:35She's been living in a storage room this whole time?
00:07:37Wow.
00:07:43Has anyone even tried looking for Emma?
00:07:45She's just pulling a stunt.
00:07:47She wants us to beg her to come back.
00:07:50Have any of you even seen the room that she's living in?
00:07:53It's worse than what we give to the mains.
00:07:55No way.
00:07:56Did Emma put that into your head?
00:07:58Fine.
00:07:59Come with me.
00:08:00I'll show you.
00:08:07I said take me to Emma's room, not some damn storage closet.
00:08:11This is Emma's room, ma'am.
00:08:15So this little slum rat thinks she can waltz in and take what's mine?
00:08:26Hi.
00:08:26You must be Emma.
00:08:27I'm Rachel.
00:08:29Let me show you to your room.
00:08:38Emma, you've been through so much.
00:08:40Mom and Dad thought a simpler space might make you feel more at home.
00:08:47If that's what they think is best, then this is fine.
00:08:59Emma insisted.
00:09:01She preferred it.
00:09:02Emma, her grades were good enough for Harvard.
00:09:14Oh, this is mine.
00:09:17I told Emma the other day I was applying to Harvard.
00:09:19She must have taken it by accident.
00:09:21I knew it.
00:09:22There's no way Emma could get into Harvard.
00:09:24She probably stole it out of jealousy.
00:09:26Rachel, you're the daughter we raised, right?
00:09:30I know you'll do us proud.
00:09:33Why don't you go shopping tomorrow with your mother to celebrate?
00:09:37Damn it, Emma.
00:09:38Now I actually have to apply to Harvard because of you.
00:09:46Emma.
00:09:48Miss Helen.
00:09:49I didn't expect to see you here.
00:09:50Well, how's your Harvard application coming along?
00:09:52You know, you're the best in school.
00:09:55I believe I can make it.
00:10:06Miss Walker?
00:10:08Congratulations.
00:10:09You've been accepted to Harvard.
00:10:13Wow.
00:10:17Emma.
00:10:19Congratulations.
00:10:20You've been accepted into Harvard.
00:10:21I knew it.
00:10:23Really?
00:10:24You don't know?
00:10:26Well, we informed the walkers several days ago.
00:10:29I must have thought it was Rachel.
00:10:36Rachel, you've made us so proud.
00:10:41Rachel, it's for you.
00:10:43You got into Harvard.
00:10:47Congratulations, Rachel.
00:10:48Miss Walker, the school would like to honor you at the graduation ceremony.
00:10:57Wait, did I actually get accepted?
00:11:01I'll be there.
00:11:09Yes!
00:11:09Yes!
00:11:09Yes!
00:11:10Fantastic!
00:11:11Fantastic!
00:11:11It's been a week since Emma left.
00:11:17I wonder how she's doing.
00:11:18Why waste your time thinking about her?
00:11:21We have Rachel.
00:11:26Mom!
00:11:27Dad!
00:11:33Emma.
00:11:33So, you finally come crawling back to admit you were wrong.
00:11:42Mrs. Walker, you've got it all wrong.
00:11:44I'm here for the graduation ceremony.
00:11:47Rachel has a top-tier education.
00:11:50She's always been top of her class.
00:11:52You?
00:11:54A community college is the best you can hope for.
00:11:56And Rachel isn't like you.
00:12:00She doesn't embarrass us.
00:12:05Emma.
00:12:05We pulled you from the slums.
00:12:08Gave you everything.
00:12:10And yet you, still the same worthless thief you've always been.
00:12:15You're a disgrace.
00:12:17A stain on this family.
00:12:18I did everything I could to earn your approval.
00:12:22But still, no matter what, you will only believe Rachel.
00:12:25Maybe I was never meant to be a part of your family.
00:12:28And that's fine.
00:12:30Because I already have one.
00:12:33Rachel is the daughter we raised.
00:12:36Just wait.
00:12:37You'll see she's far more successful than you'll ever be.
00:12:41Are you sure Rachel's the one that got into Harvard?
00:12:44What?
00:12:48What nonsense.
00:12:50If not Rachel, then who?
00:12:52You?
00:12:53Don't make me laugh.
00:12:54Dad, don't be too harsh on her.
00:12:57Emma's probably just obsessed she didn't get in.
00:12:59Let's not make her feel worse.
00:13:01The one who actually got into Harvard is...
00:13:04Let's wait and see.
00:13:06Shall we?
00:13:06Welcome, everyone, to this year's graduation ceremony.
00:13:10Everyone, please take a seat.
00:13:11A special congratulation to this girl's one and only student...
00:13:18accepted into Harvard.
00:13:20And now, let's invite her parents to the stage.
00:13:25Accepted into Harvard is none other than Mr. Walker's daughter.
00:13:33Harvard students are one in a million.
00:13:35And we would like to thank Mr. Walker for raising such an exceptional child.
00:13:39It's Rachel.
00:13:41Rachel got into Harvard.
00:13:42Of course it's Rachel.
00:13:44You heard the principal say himself.
00:13:45A Walker family's daughter.
00:13:48Congrats, Rachel.
00:13:50It's all thanks to how well you raised me.
00:13:53Come on, Rachel.
00:13:53Let's go together.
00:13:55This time, your mother and I can finally bask in your success.
00:13:58Don't worry, Emma.
00:13:59Whether or not you get into Harvard, we're proud of you.
00:14:02Dad, Mom, don't worry.
00:14:05I've got a surprise for you.
00:14:06Good evening, everyone.
00:14:12Mr. Walker, your family has brought honor to our school.
00:14:16On behalf of everyone here.
00:14:19It's our duty as parents to ensure our children succeed.
00:14:24Rachel is truly remarkable.
00:14:26So obedient.
00:14:27So accomplished.
00:14:29She's everything we'd hoped for.
00:14:31Well done.
00:14:33You've lived up to all my expectations.
00:14:35It wasn't that hard for me.
00:14:38To celebrate my daughter's acceptance to Harvard, I'm donating a brand new library to the school,
00:14:45which will be named after her through Rachel Walker.
00:14:52Wait, wait, wait a moment.
00:14:55Mr. Walker, did you say your daughter's name is Rachel?
00:14:58Yes, of course.
00:15:00Is there a problem?
00:15:01Sir, that's incorrect.
00:15:04The student accepted into Harvard is Emma.
00:15:11The student accepted into Harvard is Emma.
00:15:17Yes, it's Emma.
00:15:20I knew she was amazing.
00:15:24Let's invite Emma to the stage.
00:15:26This can't be real.
00:15:33Why does Emma have grades like that?
00:15:35There's no way she's better than Rachel.
00:15:38All right.
00:15:39Whether it's Rachel or Emma that got into Harvard, they're both Walker daughters.
00:15:46I suppose Emma isn't so bad after all.
00:15:48She must have inherited our genes.
00:15:51At least she's not embarrassing the family.
00:15:53She'll have to make a speech.
00:15:55Thank you, our family.
00:15:56We should be ready to share the spotlight.
00:15:59Right.
00:16:01Emma's top of her class, and it's all thanks to us.
00:16:05Her upbringing and our sacrifices.
00:16:09Yeah.
00:16:12Achieving this today wouldn't be possible without the people that I'm most grateful for.
00:16:17My mom, my dad, and my brother.
00:16:20Without their love and support, I wouldn't be standing here today.
00:16:23From now on, I will keep striving to make them proud.
00:16:26Check my ears.
00:16:27Okay.
00:16:33Now, let's invite Emma's parents to the stage.
00:16:37Michael Foster, Grace Foster, and Emma's brother, Daniel.
00:16:40Emma, you really got into Harvard.
00:16:55She kept it all a secret just to surprise us.
00:16:58I knew it.
00:16:59You must have been up late studying again, weren't you?
00:17:01I told you I'd make you guys proud.
00:17:03Oh, you silly girl.
00:17:04We never wanted you to be perfect.
00:17:06We just wanted you to be happy.
00:17:08The ceremony's almost over.
00:17:10Let's go home.
00:17:12Emma!
00:17:13What the hell is wrong with you?
00:17:16We're your parents.
00:17:18You should be thanking us, not clinging to some strangers.
00:17:22Strangers?
00:17:24Mr. Walker, let's not forget.
00:17:26We cut ties a long time ago.
00:17:28They're my family now.
00:17:29How dare you speak to us like that?
00:17:33Let's go.
00:17:34Wait a minute.
00:17:36What now?
00:17:37Since you're smart enough to get into Harvard, I'll give you a chance.
00:17:41If you come back, I might consider taking you back into the family.
00:17:51Willing to forgive everything.
00:17:53I'm offering you a chance to be back.
00:17:56Consider yourself lucky.
00:17:57We'd even allow it.
00:17:58Emma, dad's cooled off.
00:18:02Just come home.
00:18:04I mean, after all, we are your real family.
00:18:09I already told you.
00:18:10I have a family now.
00:18:12The Emma that once begged for your approval, she's long dead.
00:18:16You never said anything.
00:18:17How are we supposed to know?
00:18:19You never asked.
00:18:20Do you even know what classes she took?
00:18:22What she scored on her exams?
00:18:24How many late nights she spent studying?
00:18:25You never cared.
00:18:27Now you want to call yourselves your family?
00:18:32Forget it, Daniel.
00:18:34There's nothing more to say.
00:18:35Mr. Walker, we cracked down his old phone.
00:18:56The password's removed.
00:18:57It's 5 a.m.
00:19:02Julian has an early meeting, so I made him a special breakfast.
00:19:06Julian, look.
00:19:08I made you a special breakfast.
00:19:10Rachel's on a diet.
00:19:11I made this for him.
00:19:22It's my fault.
00:19:25I'm the one who hurt Emma.
00:19:36I don't know why you didn't just have him delivered.
00:19:39Why come to yourself?
00:19:41Emma, I'm glad you finally agreed to see us.
00:19:46Say what you need to.
00:19:48I made these for you.
00:19:50They're, uh, pineapple, your favorite.
00:19:54Stop pretending, Julian.
00:19:55The late affection is worth less than grass.
00:19:58Take your fake kindness and leave.
00:20:00Emma.
00:20:01Julian worked all night to make those for you.
00:20:04Have some decency.
00:20:06Please leave.
00:20:08Emma, don't forget where you came from.
00:20:10I'm already drawing up papers to sever ties.
00:20:13From now on, I'm a foster.
00:20:15Not a walker.
00:20:19Emma.
00:20:22Julian!
00:20:24She's been working you sick.
00:20:26Been thinking about her day and night, even making her your favorite snack.
00:20:29All for her to toss you to the side.
00:20:31Don't, don't blame Emma.
00:20:34How could you still defend her after this?
00:20:40That's Emma's phone.
00:20:42Watch the videos.
00:20:44You'll understand.
00:20:47Ah, Julian!
00:20:48Dr. Walker, your brother's condition isn't life-threatening.
00:20:55His stomach condition of fire looked through to stress.
00:20:58He just needs rest.
00:21:00Thank you, Lee.
00:21:00Emma's gone too far.
00:21:10She doesn't...
00:21:11She shouldn't see us as brothers.
00:21:14Just enemies.
00:21:14That's Emma's phone.
00:21:22Watch the videos.
00:21:24You'll understand.
00:21:24I heard Eric's been searching for a rare medicinal herb.
00:21:35Do you know where it grows?
00:21:37I think someone saw it in the wild hills west of here.
00:21:40But Emma, you're not thinking of going there, are you?
00:21:42That's too dangerous.
00:21:44Don't worry.
00:21:45I'm not.
00:21:46But you went anyways.
00:21:48Came back injured.
00:21:49Eric, look.
00:21:55I found the herbs you needed.
00:21:58I don't need them.
00:22:00Don't come to my place at work again.
00:22:03Who's that girl?
00:22:05Just the maid's daughter dropping something off.
00:22:13I was wrong.
00:22:19Miss Walker, you're doing much better.
00:22:22All the tests are good.
00:22:23Just be mindful of your diet going forward.
00:22:25Got it.
00:22:26Thank you, doctor.
00:22:29You were abused by the Walkers to the point of malnutrition.
00:22:32Fortunately, I found it.
00:22:35Emma.
00:22:37I heard you were in the hospital.
00:22:39Are you all right?
00:22:40I'm fine.
00:22:41Leaving the Walker family was the best decision I've ever made.
00:22:44Emma, maybe I was too harsh before.
00:22:47I'm sorry.
00:22:50No matter what, we're still family.
00:22:53Family?
00:22:55You think a half-hearted apology can erase years of neglect?
00:22:59You never cared about me.
00:23:00Just about keeping up appearances.
00:23:02That's not what I meant.
00:23:04I...
00:23:04Help!
00:23:04Please someone help my daughter!
00:23:08Help!
00:23:09Please someone help my daughter!
00:23:11I'm a doctor.
00:23:12Let me have a look.
00:23:13I'm a doctor.
00:23:17You're pressing the wrong spot.
00:23:20That'll kill her.
00:23:21Emma, this isn't the time.
00:23:23Let me handle it.
00:23:25The method works for adults.
00:23:26She's a child.
00:23:27You're going to block her airway.
00:23:31Press here.
00:23:32About the wound.
00:23:33Slightly to the side.
00:23:35Don't block her airway.
00:23:47How?
00:23:49How did you know that?
00:23:52Back when you were too busy looking down on me to notice.
00:23:55Daniel?
00:23:56Let's go.
00:23:59I can't wait for the day the Walkers finally regret everything.
00:24:02Emma, I was wrong.
00:24:19Happy birthday to you.
00:24:28Happy birthday, my sweet Emma.
00:24:31Thank you, Mom.
00:24:32Dad.
00:24:33Daniel.
00:24:35So, Emma, what program did you apply for at Harvard?
00:24:38I want to be a designer.
00:24:40That makes sense.
00:24:41You've been into drawing ever since you were a kid.
00:24:44Thanks.
00:24:45The program is expensive.
00:24:47Don't worry.
00:24:49I'll work part-time.
00:24:52Well, actually, Emma,
00:24:55we got a surprise for you.
00:24:57What do you want?
00:25:14I mean, I heard you applied to a design program.
00:25:19That's none of your business.
00:25:21Emma, please.
00:25:22Just hear us out.
00:25:25Your foster family can't afford that program.
00:25:28If you want a future,
00:25:29come back to us.
00:25:31Cut ties with them.
00:25:33We'll forget about everything that happened.
00:25:35Oh.
00:25:36So now that I have something that you want,
00:25:38you suddenly remember I exist?
00:25:41Please, Emma, listen.
00:25:42Don't be stubborn, okay?
00:25:43This isn't about the past.
00:25:44This is about your future.
00:25:46You can either stay here in this shack
00:25:49or come back to us
00:25:50and have every opportunity imaginable.
00:25:55But the choice is obvious.
00:26:01Sure.
00:26:02I'll come with you.
00:26:07Wow.
00:26:10Come on.
00:26:11You guys are delusional.
00:26:12No matter how poor the Fosters might be,
00:26:14they're my family and they love me.
00:26:17Unlike you.
00:26:18Selfish,
00:26:19shallow,
00:26:20and obsessed with money.
00:26:29Don't believe a word they said.
00:26:31We know, sweetheart.
00:26:34Even if a billionaire begged me to call him dad,
00:26:37I'd still choose you.
00:26:39Oh, honey.
00:26:40Well,
00:26:42well,
00:26:42before we were interrupted,
00:26:44we had something we wanted to tell you.
00:26:57Wait.
00:26:59Why are we standing outside someone else's house?
00:27:02This isn't someone else's house.
00:27:04Welcome home,
00:27:06Miss Emma.
00:27:08Mom.
00:27:09Dad.
00:27:10Daniel.
00:27:11What's going on?
00:27:13Wow.
00:27:15It took a long time to tell you this.
00:27:17Emma,
00:27:18our family,
00:27:19we're billionaires.
00:27:21Wait,
00:27:22what?
00:27:23That's a family tradition.
00:27:24We wait until our children turn 20.
00:27:26That way,
00:27:27they grow up learning hard work,
00:27:28not privilege.
00:27:29We wanted to wait until you got into Harvard
00:27:31and turned 20
00:27:32before we revealed everything.
00:27:34then your biological family
00:27:35tried to buy you back with money,
00:27:37but you stood firm.
00:27:39Emma,
00:27:40having a daughter like you
00:27:41has been our greatest blessing.
00:27:44I love you guys so much.
00:27:46Well,
00:27:48now that everything's out in the open,
00:27:49I've made a decision.
00:27:51We're going to turn your sketches
00:27:52into real designs.
00:27:54I'm going to finance an exhibition for you.
00:27:58Those were just childhood doodles,
00:28:00and it would cost a fortune.
00:28:02Who would even show up?
00:28:04Trust me, Emma,
00:28:05that exhibition is going to be packed.
00:28:07packed.
00:28:09Wow.
00:28:12Wow.
00:28:21What's with you,
00:28:22Eric, huh?
00:28:23Look like someone died.
00:28:24Julian,
00:28:26I saw Emma today
00:28:27at the hospital.
00:28:30At the hospital?
00:28:31What happened?
00:28:32Is she okay?
00:28:33She's fine.
00:28:34Thriving.
00:28:35Actually,
00:28:36better than I've ever seen her.
00:28:38Do you think we
00:28:40went a little too hard on her?
00:28:43We lost her for 16 years,
00:28:45and when she got back,
00:28:46we treated her like nothing.
00:28:48When Rachel failed her exams,
00:28:50mom and dad took her on vacation.
00:28:52And Emma?
00:28:53No one is even asked
00:28:55if she was okay.
00:28:57Today at the hospital,
00:28:58she saved someone's life.
00:29:00Everyone was clapping,
00:29:01calling her brilliant.
00:29:02In this house,
00:29:04no matter how hard she worked,
00:29:07she never even heard
00:29:08a single good job.
00:29:10Well, maybe
00:29:11if we'd just seen her
00:29:13for who she was,
00:29:14she wouldn't have walked away.
00:29:16Yeah.
00:29:18Maybe.
00:29:19What is with you two?
00:29:21When did you start
00:29:23worshipping her, huh?
00:29:24What'd she do?
00:29:25Cry a little
00:29:25and then make you feel guilty?
00:29:27She's our sister, Chris.
00:29:28No, she's not my sister.
00:29:31Hey, Rachel is.
00:29:35I'll never forgive Emma
00:29:36for what she did to me.
00:29:39Chris.
00:29:41Do you even know her?
00:29:48Wow.
00:29:56What is she doing
00:29:57at an event like this?
00:29:58I heard she said a design.
00:30:00Her brother is introducing
00:30:01to some pretty powerful people tonight.
00:30:03What a joke.
00:30:05Could she even hold
00:30:06a pencil properly?
00:30:07I wouldn't estimate her.
00:30:09The word is Esten,
00:30:11the legend of the jewelry design.
00:30:13He was impressed
00:30:14with her work.
00:30:15He's planning to attend
00:30:16her upcoming exhibition.
00:30:19Maybe you should see it yourself.
00:30:21Not interested.
00:30:21I heard you at an event tonight.
00:30:30What happened?
00:30:31I saw Emma
00:30:32at the jewelry gala.
00:30:34And?
00:30:35She's studying design,
00:30:37hosting her own exhibition.
00:30:38I mean,
00:30:39even Esten,
00:30:39out of all people,
00:30:40is impressed with her.
00:30:41I never realized
00:30:42she could do so much.
00:30:44I don't care how talented she is.
00:30:45She's not my sister.
00:30:47She saved a life
00:30:48at the hospital.
00:30:48That doesn't change anything.
00:30:53After you see what's on you,
00:30:55why would I?
00:30:57Maybe it's time you had it.
00:31:09This is a waste of time.
00:31:10Thanks for encouraging me
00:31:16after my accident.
00:31:19I thought I'd never walk again.
00:31:21I hope you're always happy.
00:31:24No way.
00:31:37It was her.
00:31:40All along.
00:31:41This can't be real.
00:31:50Back then,
00:31:51she left me.
00:31:52She's been the one
00:31:53keeping me together.
00:31:57Just so we're clear,
00:31:58I'm only picking you up
00:31:58because it's Christmas.
00:31:59Okay?
00:32:00So I don't get any ideas.
00:32:01Thanks, Chris.
00:32:04Hold it down!
00:32:05Your leg.
00:32:22Chris,
00:32:23you might never walk again.
00:32:27Dr. Aaron?
00:32:29There's a girl inside.
00:32:30Emma?
00:32:31She wants to see him.
00:32:32Tell her to leave.
00:32:33I don't want to see her.
00:32:39This is all her fault.
00:32:40I should have never
00:32:41picked her up.
00:32:42It's okay.
00:32:43It's okay.
00:32:44I never want to see her again.
00:32:52If she left me
00:32:54at the hospital that day,
00:32:56why did she...
00:32:57Hi, Chris.
00:32:58I'm Lucky Bear.
00:32:59Here to spread happiness
00:33:00to everyone.
00:33:02No.
00:33:03She was the one
00:33:05helping me all along.
00:33:09Mr. Walker,
00:33:11you need a drink.
00:33:16Get out.
00:33:17I almost slipped.
00:33:28I almost slipped.
00:33:44Hey, you.
00:33:47Stop looking so gloomy.
00:33:48Who the hell are you?
00:33:49I'm Lucky Bear.
00:33:51Here to spread happiness
00:33:52to everyone.
00:33:53Okay, well, get out.
00:33:55Should we be cheering up
00:33:56some sick kids somewhere?
00:33:57Instead of wasting time
00:33:57on a grown man
00:33:58with a busted leg?
00:33:59You're acting like
00:34:00a cranky six-year-old,
00:34:01so I thought I'd start here.
00:34:03Come on.
00:34:04Don't be like that.
00:34:06You survived.
00:34:07That's what counts, right?
00:34:08There are people out there
00:34:10who love you.
00:34:11Keep pushing through.
00:34:13I know you can do it.
00:34:23It's gonna be okay.
00:34:29Emma?
00:34:29What have I done?
00:34:36I'm gonna find out
00:34:37the truth tonight.
00:34:43Lily?
00:34:45Where's Emma's room?
00:34:46The storage room.
00:34:54She lived like this.
00:34:55Chris, world tour singer,
00:35:06acclaimed actor,
00:35:08a true star.
00:35:09Just like everyone else,
00:35:11I admired him.
00:35:12I was his biggest fan.
00:35:14After Chris's accident,
00:35:16the doctor said
00:35:17he might never walk again.
00:35:18But now he's starting rehab.
00:35:20I really hope
00:35:21he recovers soon.
00:35:23Chris can never know
00:35:24I left to save him.
00:35:25It's better if he lives on.
00:35:27Carefree and happy.
00:35:30Emma?
00:35:37I thought that...
00:35:39Julian.
00:35:41What happened
00:35:42the day of my accident?
00:35:44The truth.
00:35:46Julian, no more lies.
00:35:49If you want answers,
00:35:52we have to go back
00:35:53to the hospital.
00:35:55Chris,
00:36:02it was a young woman
00:36:04who saved your life
00:36:05three years ago.
00:36:10Please,
00:36:10please help my brother.
00:36:11Please, send help.
00:36:23We're on Jefferson Street.
00:36:24There's been a bad car accident.
00:36:26My brother's still inside.
00:36:28The car,
00:36:28the car,
00:36:29it's leaking fuel.
00:36:30It might explode.
00:36:31Come on,
00:36:31get back.
00:36:35Save you, Chris.
00:36:36Please, wake up.
00:36:48Please, wake up.
00:36:48Please, wake up.
00:36:49Please, wake up.
00:36:49Please, wake up.
00:36:59If she hadn't pulled you from that car,
00:37:01we wouldn't be having this conversation.
00:37:03Despite her own injuries, her only concern was you.
00:37:07And when the medics arrived, she begged them to treat you first.
00:37:11You're very lucky to have a sister like that.
00:37:21So, I misjudged her.
00:37:25I was wrong.
00:37:28Eric, Julie and Emma didn't abandon me.
00:37:32She saved me.
00:37:33I understand.
00:37:34No, you don't understand.
00:37:35She was the lucky bear.
00:37:38She was there for me when no one else was.
00:37:40And all I did was just hurt her.
00:37:43And for Rachel.
00:37:44We all failed her, Chris.
00:37:47Eric, Emma never hurt Rachel.
00:37:49Rachel hurt herself and then blamed it on Emma.
00:37:52I got her kicked out, but I'm going to fix it.
00:37:55I'm going to get Emma back.
00:37:56Look, it's too late now.
00:37:58No.
00:37:59She hates us all now, Chris.
00:38:00Emma never gave up on me when I was in rehab.
00:38:04And we're not giving up on her.
00:38:06If we prove that we've changed, she'll take us back.
00:38:10Look, we may have had a chance back then when she wanted our love.
00:38:13I'm so proud of her.
00:38:26She did amazing.
00:38:27This is incredible.
00:38:31Your sketch is brought to life.
00:38:34Your parents must be so proud.
00:38:35And this venue, it only features top designers.
00:38:38Your brother really pulled out the stops.
00:38:39I used to give my heart to people who didn't deserve it.
00:38:43Not anymore.
00:38:44Now I know better.
00:38:45And I'm determined more than anything to make my family proud.
00:38:49Your exhibit's about to start.
00:38:51Come on.
00:38:52Let's do one last check to make sure everything is perfect.
00:38:55Still nothing from Emma?
00:39:00Julian.
00:39:05Mr. Walker, we've located Emma.
00:39:08She's at the dual reactivant.
00:39:09When did Emma become like this?
00:39:39Emma, I get it now.
00:39:42After the accident, you were the one that saved me.
00:39:44You were the lucky bear behind all those messages, weren't you?
00:39:47So what?
00:39:48Why didn't you say anything?
00:39:50You know, all those years...
00:39:50And say what?
00:39:51That I saved your life after you turned your back on me?
00:39:58It's okay.
00:39:59It's okay.
00:40:00It's okay.
00:40:01Why didn't she lose her life?
00:40:03I never want to see her again.
00:40:05Dr. Walker, her wounds have reopened.
00:40:12She needs care.
00:40:13She's not going to die.
00:40:15She'll be fine.
00:40:16She can go home now.
00:40:21Julian, please don't send me away.
00:40:23I just want to see Chris recover.
00:40:26Get out.
00:40:29Julian.
00:40:30Get out!
00:40:31Seems like it's all coming back to you.
00:40:41Now leave.
00:40:50I don't think we can come back from this.
00:40:57There has to be a way.
00:40:59She doesn't trust us.
00:41:01We're not the family she once loved.
00:41:04Not anymore.
00:41:05She must have cared a lot.
00:41:09To hate us this much.
00:41:13Maybe only time can fix this.
00:41:16Emma, your brother really pulled out all the stops.
00:41:20He brought in so many VIPs to make sure your exhibition was a hit.
00:41:24You two made some pretty impressive connections yourselves.
00:41:27I heard you reached out to some big names.
00:41:29Hey, guilty as charged.
00:41:33Let's be real, Emma.
00:41:34They're not just here for connections.
00:41:35They're here for your work.
00:41:37I couldn't agree more.
00:41:41Mr. Reston, it's an honor to have you here.
00:41:44Emma, you're an exceptionally young designer.
00:41:47I'd like to invite you to collaborate with my team.
00:41:51Working with you is every designer's dream.
00:41:53I'd be honored to.
00:41:54Here's to Emma.
00:42:01Her first exhibition was a huge success.
00:42:07So, Emma, what's next?
00:42:08Mr. Reston and I agreed I'd join his team after graduation.
00:42:12Until then, I'll work on sharpening up my skills.
00:42:15Well, if that's the case, why don't you work for the family company?
00:42:18It'd be a great experience.
00:42:19Sounds good to me.
00:42:22But first, let's have a drink.
00:42:32What?
00:42:34What do you mean someone reported me?
00:42:40Outrageous.
00:42:41Whoever reported you is going to regret it.
00:42:44I'll make sure they face the consequences.
00:42:46I've got somebody handling it.
00:42:51You've been accused of plagiarism.
00:42:54I know exactly who did it.
00:42:58She definitely plagiarized them, but you didn't hear it from me.
00:43:07Where do you think you're going, Ms. Walker?
00:43:11Emma, what's your problem?
00:43:13I didn't report you.
00:43:14Funny, I didn't even mention the report.
00:43:17Yet, here you are, in your own grave.
00:43:21You're just as dumb as always.
00:43:23You're the dumb one.
00:43:24Your own parents didn't want you.
00:43:26Your brothers hate you.
00:43:28And even if I did report you,
00:43:30what the hell are you going to do about it?
00:43:34Thanks for the reminder.
00:43:36Daniel, mind if I borrow your car keys for a sec?
00:43:39What?
00:43:40What are you doing?
00:43:42Emma, what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:43:47Your mom and dad love me.
00:43:49Your brothers trust me.
00:43:51Everything that was yours, it's mine now.
00:43:55What do you want?
00:44:10You are no daughter of mine.
00:44:12Rachel has everything you're not.
00:44:14Everything that was yours, it's mine now.
00:44:17Now you know what it feels like.
00:44:32Next time, I won't hit the brakes.
00:44:34Miss Walker, I'm right outside your family's home.
00:44:50Pay up, or I'll be paying your parents a visit.
00:44:54No!
00:44:54No!
00:44:54Final warning.
00:45:06If we don't have the 20 million by tomorrow,
00:45:08I'm knocking on your parents' door.
00:45:11If it clears the debt,
00:45:13that's a little theft.
00:45:15No one's caught me all these years anyway.
00:45:16No one's caught me all these years anyway.
00:45:24Ma'am, is everything all right?
00:45:28Rachel's interested in jewelry design.
00:45:31Reviewed the top schools
00:45:33and narrowed down the best options.
00:45:36Tonight, I'll let her choose.
00:45:38You're so thoughtful, ma'am.
00:45:41Rachel is lucky to have you.
00:45:44Where is she?
00:45:45She wandered off.
00:45:48She did seem a bit upset.
00:45:52I'll go check.
00:45:54Rachel!
00:46:02Rachel!
00:46:05Rachel!
00:46:07Where is she?
00:46:10The code was my birthday.
00:46:12Rachel, are you in there?
00:46:34Rachel, are you in there?
00:46:37Hi, Mom.
00:46:39What's in your hand, Rachel?
00:46:41Nothing.
00:46:42Where is the necklace that was in that box?
00:46:47I haven't seen it.
00:46:49I swear, Mom, I didn't take it.
00:46:50I don't know what you're thinking, but I did not...
00:46:53Rachel, you stole this?
00:46:56Mom, I'm sorry.
00:46:58I just thought it was so beautiful.
00:46:59I wanted to show it off.
00:47:01I didn't mean anything bad.
00:47:02Please, forgive me.
00:47:05Rachel, things kept disappearing while Emma was here.
00:47:08Was it you all along?
00:47:09No, that wasn't me.
00:47:11It was Emma.
00:47:11I swear, this is the first time.
00:47:14Telling your father tonight, you can explain yourself to him.
00:47:17No, Mom, please.
00:47:19Dad will kick me out.
00:47:21Please just listen.

01:07:39designs, appearance isn't everything. What truly matters is quality. Now, Ms. Walker
01:07:47claims that the Walker Luxe Group's jewelry is sourced by top tier South American mines.
01:07:53These mines have a solid reputation. Is there an issue?
01:07:57Over the past two years, production has plummeted. In fact, exports have nearly halted in the
01:08:04last several months. This shows serious underlining problems. That's a lie. We've done multiple
01:08:11site inspections. I can guarantee that unless some catastrophic event happens, those mines
01:08:17remain stable. What if I told you that catastrophic event is about to happen?
01:08:25Landslides are mines' worst nightmare. Production halts or investments are done for.
01:08:30Seriously? A catastrophic event? What are you, a psychic?
01:08:34As a matter of fact, I can see the future.
01:08:37Breaking news. Heavy flooding in South American mines has triggered catastrophic havens, resulting
01:08:43in major casualties. Affected businesses have now faced imminent bankruptcy.
01:08:48Dad, I know you're in the jewelry business, so I made a design. Could you take a look?
01:08:55Emma, please. You didn't even get into college. What could you possibly know about jewelry design?
01:09:00Dad was just saying, it's not just about the designs, it's about consistent supply from
01:09:05reliable mines. Right, Dad?
01:09:07That's my girl. You'd catch on so fast.
01:09:10Jewelry design isn't some hobby. It's a world of prestige, wealth, and exclusivity. Not for someone
01:09:28like you.
01:09:42Emma, stop spewing baseless lies! Here's some evidence.
01:09:47Dad, I heard the weather's been bad in South America. If investors find out the mines might
01:09:53shut down, won't that hurt the Walker Group's reputation?
01:09:56Ah, business is a battle. They chose to invest in us. That's on them.
01:10:02The Walker-Lux Group knew the mines were failing, yet still scammed investors.
01:10:07Unbelievable. If they're lying about this, what else are they hiding?
01:10:12How did this happen?
01:10:15Chairman Walker, looks like your golden child isn't quite up to the task after all.
01:10:19Alright, alright, alright. It looks like we have a clear winner!
01:10:23Oh my god, Fosters. The wealthiest family in the city.
01:10:40Why would they bother showing up here in person?
01:10:43What's with the commotion? It's like no one of these people have ever seen slum rats in designer clothes.
01:10:49Mom, Dad, I never knew you were coming.
01:10:52Daniel told us about your win at the design showcase.
01:10:56Your father and I thought it was time to make things official.
01:10:59Look at them, acting like they own the place.
01:11:03Wait till the whispers turn against them.
01:11:06With such esteemed guests gathered, it's time for a formal introduction.
01:11:11Emma Foster, my daughter, my pride, and the rarest gem of the Emberstone Corporation.
01:11:18Irreplaceable. One of a kind.
01:11:21Emma's adopted parents are the richest, the one and only foster family?
01:11:31Oh my god.
01:11:33Way to go, honey.
01:11:35Proud of you.
01:11:36Job, sis.
01:11:38Thank you so much for coming.
01:11:40It means more to me that you're here.
01:11:43I'm just gonna use the restroom real quick.
01:11:45Sure.
01:11:46Alright, we'll wait and head out together.
01:12:00Emma!
01:12:01I'll never lose to you.
01:12:02Just die!
01:12:03Still no answer.
01:12:04That's not like her.
01:12:05Something's happened to Emma.
01:12:06I'm gonna go find her.
01:12:08What do you mean Emma's gone missing?
01:12:10No.
01:12:11I am not losing her again.
01:12:12I need every man on this.
01:12:16Rachel, killing me comes with consequences.
01:12:17Oh, consequences.
01:12:18Spare me the lecture.
01:12:19What is it?
01:12:20I'm gonna go find her.
01:12:21I'm gonna go find her.
01:12:23What do you mean Emma's gone missing?
01:12:24What do you mean Emma's gone missing?
01:12:25No.
01:12:26I am not losing her again.
01:12:27I need every man on this.
01:12:29Rachel, killing me comes with consequences.
01:12:32Oh, consequences.
01:12:33Spare me the lecture.
01:12:34By the way, do you know how Veronica ended up in that wheelchair?
01:12:51I pushed her down the stairs with my own two hands.
01:13:01I'm gonna go find Emma.
01:13:02Now.
01:13:03So, imagine loving a daughter for over a decade only to find out that she nearly killed you.
01:13:11Must have been devastating.
01:13:13Oh, what really broke her wasn't the fall.
01:13:16It was realizing she turned against you.
01:13:19Threw you out herself.
01:13:22Well, let's be honest, Emma.
01:13:26If we hadn't made your life hell, we wouldn't be here today with you.
01:13:33You're right.
01:13:35Without the walkers, I wouldn't be who I am today.
01:13:39How did you get loose?
01:13:41Please, I knew you would try something like this.
01:13:44I was just playing along.
01:13:46No, that's impossible.
01:13:47I should be thanking Patrick for his selfishness.
01:13:56He taught me to live for myself.
01:13:59Veronica, favoritism, forced me to endure.
01:14:04And Jillian, he taught me how to be ruthless.
01:14:09Eric, showed me what it means to be two-faced.
01:14:14And Chris, who covered for you time and time again, pinning every single crime on me.
01:14:21He taught me what true betrayal really is.
01:14:24And you, Rachel, the bastard child who stole what was never yours.
01:14:30You taught me what shamelessness is.
01:14:33What it means to cut the weeds at its roots.
01:14:36Stay back.
01:14:42This necklace has a hidden camera.
01:14:45Everything you said, every single word has been broadcasted live.
01:14:51It's time for this to end.
01:14:54Bitch, if I'm going down, I'm taking you with me!
01:15:05Get this lunatic out of here.
01:15:07Yes, sir.
01:15:08Julian!
01:15:09Eric!
01:15:10Chris!
01:15:11Help me!
01:15:14What are you doing here?
01:15:15Are you okay?
01:15:16Emma, I'm sorry.
01:15:18I didn't know that Rachel was-
01:15:19Save your apologies for the next life.
01:15:20I found this and I'm as old blonde.
01:15:25Consider it a parting gift.
01:15:31Today my birth parents came to see me.
01:15:33They said they wanted to take me home.
01:15:35I didn't want to leave my foster parents and Daniel.
01:15:37I couldn't help feeling excited.
01:15:39I knew I wasn't abandoned.
01:15:41For years, I never forgot our family moments.
01:15:44I still remember my three brothers.
01:15:46Julian doesn't talk much, but he taught me the important things.
01:15:51Like how to read or write my name.
01:15:53Eric was the kindest brother in the whole world.
01:15:56Even when I spilled a drink on his clothes, he didn't scold me.
01:15:59He taught me to treat people with warmth.
01:16:01And Chris?
01:16:03He always took me to the amusement park.
01:16:05He promised I'd always be his little sister.
01:16:07He said as long as he was there, no one would ever hurt me.
01:16:11I had parents who loved me more than anything.
01:16:14If I promise I won't upset you again,
01:16:16I'll just go back to the way it was before.
01:16:24You need to watch this.
01:16:26Dad.
01:16:27Mom.
01:16:28I don't know if you'll ever see this.
01:16:30This will be my third Christmas without you.
01:16:33Only this time.
01:16:34Looks like I'll be spending it alone again.
01:16:36But this is something I did.
01:16:38Did I stop being good enough?
01:16:40Dad?
01:16:41Dad.
01:16:42Dad?
01:16:43Dad?
01:16:44Dad.
01:16:46Dad?
01:16:47Dad?
01:16:48Dad.
01:16:49Dad.
01:16:50Dad.
01:16:53Dad.
