00:00:00Kids will be kids. It's nice to have some peace and quiet finally.
00:00:30What the fuck, Jack? Who said you could come in here? Hey, hey. No reason to get worked up, Principal Davis.
00:00:45How did you see, you old perv? Look, I didn't see anything. I'm just here to clean, okay? Good boy. Now keep your mouth shut. Or else.
00:01:00What the fuck?
00:01:29What the fuck? What's happening? Isn't that our janitor, Jack?
00:01:37Really? Smoking? Don't you know that these will kill you?
00:01:45Boss. Boss.
00:01:48Alright kids, come on, get out of here.
00:01:51What have I told you to? Don't make a scene in public. What's with the crazy entourage?
00:02:01Boss, you're the CEO of Orion Corporation.
00:02:03Orion has become the world's largest military defense contractor under your leadership. We need you now. More than ever.
00:02:09Boss, you're the richest man in the world. Are you really gonna retire as a janitor?
00:02:13I'm old now. I don't care about any of that stuff. Besides, there's nothing wrong with being a janitor. Not today. Today is my grandson's birthday. And all I want now is to watch him grow up safe and happy.
00:02:31You two leave me in peace. Boss, wait. This is from the Da Vinci collection. It's 50 million dollars. It's our birthday gift for your grandson.
00:02:45This is a corporate card. No limits set. In case you need to buy anything. I don't need these things.
00:02:59Alright, alright. Just this once. Now, somebody give an old man a ride home, okay? I can't be late for my grandson's birthday.
00:03:15Just, just drop me off here. I don't want anyone to see me with you guys. Thanks for the ride.
00:03:30Who is that? What is the janitor doing here?
00:03:33Maybe he's homeless and he's trying to steal some food?
00:03:42Dad?
00:03:45Why did you come here dressed like that?
00:03:50If Tommy's birthday party and your dad pulls this shit on me, he's obviously trying to spite me.
00:03:55Grandpa, why are you dressed like a poor person?
00:03:58Mommy, she said that janitors are losers.
00:04:03Tommy, clothes aren't important, okay?
00:04:06What's important is I'm here to celebrate your birthday, buddy.
00:04:10Dad, you're embarrassing us.
00:04:12Exactly. All of our guests are dressed to the nines.
00:04:15You are being so rude to them showing up looking like a bum.
00:04:18Who is that? He looks broke.
00:04:21Wait, did you hear Mike? He was calling him his dad.
00:04:23Yeah, I did.
00:04:26Lisa, Mike.
00:04:27Come on.
00:04:28It's not a big deal.
00:04:29Let's not make a scene, okay? We can talk about it after the birthday party.
00:04:32Not a big deal.
00:04:33You're the one embarrassing us. You don't get to say it's not a big deal.
00:04:36It's not a big deal.
00:04:43Thank you all for coming to Tommy's birthday party.
00:04:45I'd also like to share some exciting news with you all.
00:04:49Tommy will be getting a new baby sibling soon.
00:04:53What? Lisa's pregnant? That's amazing, Mike. Congratulations, Lisa.
00:05:03God, I have a very special present for you.
00:05:07Are you going to tell your dad or me?
00:05:13Dad? Lisa's pregnant?
00:05:16We don't have enough room in the house.
00:05:21What does that mean?
00:05:23The best present you could give my family.
00:05:25Move out.
00:05:32You can't be serious.
00:05:34Dad, I'm almost 30.
00:05:35I want to live alone here with my wife and my kids.
00:05:39I bought this house. Where am I supposed to go?
00:05:42Who cares?
00:05:43You're just a useless old man that no one wants around.
00:05:46I can't have a smelly, filthy janitor around my baby.
00:05:49Mike has everything that he needs.
00:05:51A beautiful wife and soon two healthy little children.
00:05:56We're the picture of a perfect family.
00:05:58Are you really going to ruin things for him?
00:06:00I wasn't there when Mike was growing up.
00:06:03And I regret that every single day.
00:06:07Guys, I just...
00:06:09I just want to spend time with my family.
00:06:11But we don't want to spend time with you.
00:06:16Okay.
00:06:17Yeah, I'll just...
00:06:18I'll go.
00:06:19One last thing, Mike, before I go.
00:06:20What?
00:06:21Don't make the same mistake that I did.
00:06:22Family is everything.
00:06:23Remember that.
00:06:24Yeah.
00:06:25I spent the last 20 years working for Money and Power.
00:06:27What's the use being CEO of Ryan Corporation?
00:06:28If I've...
00:06:29I've...
00:06:30I've...
00:06:31I've...
00:06:32I've...
00:06:33No one by my side.
00:06:34Leave me alone.
00:06:35Don't be so cold.
00:06:36Don't be so cold.
00:06:37Family is everything, remember that.
00:06:49I spent the last 20 years working for money and power.
00:06:53What's the use of being CEO of a Ryan Corporation if I have no one by my side?
00:06:59Leave me alone.
00:07:03Don't be so cold.
00:07:05Let's have some fun.
00:07:06Just giving you what you wanted.
00:07:08What are you asking for?
00:07:09Strutting around, late at night, just like that?
00:07:13Stop!
00:07:33Mr. Bradshaw!
00:07:34Who the fuck are you?
00:07:37Hey, you old fuck.
00:07:39Mind your business.
00:07:41Or...
00:07:42We'll beat your ass.
00:07:44Leave her alone.
00:07:45Wow.
00:07:46I didn't know our school's janitor is so dope.
00:07:51Are you all right, Amelia?
00:07:52Yeah.
00:07:53Thank you, Mr. Bradshaw.
00:07:57I didn't know our school's janitor is so dope.
00:08:01Are you all right, Amelia?
00:08:02Yeah.
00:08:03Thank you, Mr. Bradshaw.
00:08:05I didn't know our school's janitor is so dope.
00:08:09Are you all right, Amelia?
00:08:10Yeah.
00:08:11Thank you, Mr. Bradshaw.
00:08:12Yeah.
00:08:13Mr. Bradshaw.
00:08:14If it's not too much trouble, could you walk me home?
00:08:17Yeah.
00:08:18Thank you, Mr. Bradshaw.
00:08:20Yeah.
00:08:23Mr. Bradshaw.
00:08:24If it's not too much trouble, could you walk me home?
00:08:30Yeah.
00:08:31Of course.
00:08:36So what were you doing at the school so late?
00:08:38I forgot to bring my homework after cheer practice, so I came back to get it.
00:08:42What about you?
00:08:44How come you're out so late at night all alone too?
00:08:47No reason.
00:08:49Oh, come on.
00:08:50You can tell me.
00:08:51Fine.
00:08:52My son and daughter-in-law kicked me out of the house.
00:08:57I had nowhere to go, so I went back to the school.
00:09:02After my wife died, I buried myself in work, neglected my son.
00:09:10I guess this is what I get.
00:09:12No.
00:09:13Your son and daughter-in-law are terrible.
00:09:15They don't deserve you.
00:09:17You're handsome and you're really tough.
00:09:20Hey, do you want a wife?
00:09:30What?
00:09:31Listen, I'm serious.
00:09:32You're a great guy.
00:09:33I really like you.
00:09:34No.
00:09:35No.
00:09:36No.
00:09:37I'm too old for you.
00:09:39You're too young for even my son.
00:09:40No.
00:09:41I know that.
00:09:42Duh.
00:09:43I was talking about my mom.
00:09:45Oh.
00:09:47Wait.
00:09:48Your mom?
00:09:49My mom is our school's chairwoman.
00:09:51She's pretty.
00:09:52She's smart.
00:09:53And a total badass.
00:09:55Do you want to meet her?
00:09:56I could totally introduce you to him.
00:09:59No.
00:10:00That's okay.
00:10:01Look, are we almost there?
00:10:02Because I gotta get going.
00:10:03Come on!
00:10:04All right.
00:10:11Amelia, it's late.
00:10:13Where were you?
00:10:14Mom, I ran into some trouble on the way home, but Mr. Bradshaw saved me.
00:10:20Help me ride the storm.
00:10:23Help me ride the storm.
00:10:26Help me ride the storm.
00:10:30Help me ride the storm.
00:10:34Are you okay?
00:10:35Are you okay?
00:10:36Yeah.
00:10:37I'm alright.
00:10:38Okay, we'll talk about that later.
00:10:40And you are?
00:10:41Jack Bradshaw.
00:10:43I'm a janitor at your school.
00:10:45Janitor?
00:10:46Yes.
00:10:47And you're walking my daughter home alone?
00:10:49Why?
00:10:50Mom, I asked him to.
00:10:53It's only right to help those in need.
00:10:56Is that so?
00:10:57Oh.
00:10:58Well, aren't you a man of principle?
00:11:00Mom, Mr. Bradshaw is a good man.
00:11:03He saved me.
00:11:04Amelia, why don't you go inside so I can talk to this good man?
00:11:13Now that she's gone, why don't you tell me why you really came all this way?
00:11:18Hmm?
00:11:19Money?
00:11:20A promotion?
00:11:21Something else?
00:11:27No.
00:11:28Just trying to do the right thing.
00:11:30It's okay to want money.
00:11:32I'll write you a check.
00:11:33Just come by my office to pick it up.
00:11:35I know you think because I'm a janitor I want money or something, but I really don't.
00:11:43Goodnight.
00:11:44Wait.
00:11:46I should thank you for helping Amelia.
00:11:50That's all I need.
00:11:52You're welcome.
00:11:57You're an interesting man.
00:12:18Mom, what did you think about Jack?
00:12:22What do you mean?
00:12:23I mean, isn't he handsome?
00:12:27And he saved me today.
00:12:29He is handsome.
00:12:31And?
00:12:33And single.
00:12:34So you should marry him.
00:12:37What?
00:12:39What?
00:12:41Yeah.
00:12:42You've been single for so long, Mom.
00:12:44It's time for you to find a cute guy and get married.
00:12:47Jack is handsome.
00:12:48And he's a good person.
00:12:50And you would look so cute together.
00:12:52You can't joke like that.
00:12:54He's the janitor at my school.
00:12:56I'm his boss's boss.
00:12:59Oh, come on.
00:13:00You can at least try.
00:13:02Come on for me.
00:13:03Please.
00:13:05Alright.
00:13:06I'll consider it.
00:13:07But before I even think about dating him,
00:13:09I gotta see if I'll pass my test.
00:13:12Test?

00:33:51I'll find you
00:34:52Wow, you clean up nicely.
00:35:33What is it?
00:35:45It's late.
00:35:45Chairwoman, this is a formal notice.
00:35:49The school board has called an emergency meeting for tomorrow at 9 a.m.
00:35:53They have requested you attend.
00:35:55An emergency board meeting?
00:35:57For what?
00:35:58To discuss Principal Davis' proposal to have you removed as chairwoman.
00:36:02Carl, he's faster than we thought.
00:36:14Don't worry.
00:36:15I told you.
00:36:17I'll take care of this.
00:36:18Trust me.
00:36:26Trust me.
00:36:30The past 20 years, I'm worth billions.
00:36:42Not to mention this black card Lewis gave me.
00:36:45Emma, I won't let them threaten you.
00:36:47I'll ruin anyone who rises against you.
00:36:56Vivian, right now, as CEO of Orion Corporation, I need you to do something for me.
00:37:02Yes, boss.
00:37:03First, make an announcement that in three days, Orion Corporation will be holding a charity banquet with an emphasis on education.
00:37:12Second, before 9 a.m. tomorrow morning, I need you to prepare $30 million in cash.
00:37:19Mr. Davis, as principal, do you have anything to say about the future of the school?
00:37:41Everyone, I will be stepping up and taking control of the school.
00:37:46And I will steer it toward a prosperous future.
00:37:51Now, as far as Emma...
00:37:53As far as Emma, she has seriously offended Chairman Grumman, one of our school's longtime patrons.
00:38:02Emma has seriously damaged our school's reputation.
00:38:07I condemn her reckless and irresponsible behavior.
00:38:16From this day on, I will be leading this school to the new age of glory.
00:38:30Look, someone's coming.
00:38:39Who is this? I've never seen them.
00:38:41Miss Grayson, what do you have to say to Mr. Davis' accusations?
00:38:52Please, don't push. Just stay back. Thank you. Please, stay back.
00:38:54Miss Grayson, it's rumored your conflicts with Principal Davis are due to your failures to secure funding for the school.
00:38:59What do you have to say?
00:39:00Miss Grayson, you've been accused of sleeping with the school janitor and seriously offending Chairman Grumman.
00:39:05For his sake, explain yourself.
00:39:07I'll answer that question.
00:39:09After all, I am that janitor.
00:39:13Or do you know who I really am?
00:39:15You don't know?
00:39:18Not for that for now.
00:39:20Today will not be Emma Grayson's last day.
00:39:23But rather, a new beginning.
00:39:26And as for Carl Davis...
00:39:30Carl's through.
00:39:32That's all. No more questions. Thank you.
00:39:37They're already starting to vote.
00:39:55Emma's going to be a nobody after today.
00:39:57You're so right, Miss White.
00:39:59Emma should have been fired years ago.
00:40:01She's not fit to manage this school.
00:40:04Of course.
00:40:04But don't you worry.
00:40:06Once I become part of this faculty, I'll make sure to put you in charge of finances.
00:40:11Oh, thank you, Miss White.
00:40:14And tell Mr. Davis I won't let him down.
00:40:16Well, look who's here.
00:40:34It's the janitor who's been dragging the chairwoman down.
00:40:38Jack, this is an important, exclusive board meeting.
00:40:42There's no place for you here.
00:40:45Just get out of our way.
00:40:46Jack!
00:40:47You're just a dirty janitor.
00:40:49How dare you speak to Miss White like that?
00:40:51And you.
00:40:52You're just hurting my eyes.
00:40:54You get out of the way, too.
00:40:57Security!
00:40:58Throw them out!
00:41:02No!
00:41:02Emma, you've already been fired by the school board.
00:41:13Who do you think you are?
00:41:15Fired?
00:41:15By who?
00:41:16By Carl?
00:41:17That's right.
00:41:18Mr. Davis already gathered the necessary votes.
00:41:21It's all over.
00:41:22Wonderful.
00:41:22Well, Mr. Davis can tell me to my face.
00:41:25Now move.
00:41:27What are you waiting for?
00:41:29Throw them out!
00:41:29Are you okay?
00:41:57You're lucky I don't hit women.
00:41:58What are you so smug about?
00:42:02All this talk, Emma.
00:42:03And your last hope is a janitor who punches his problems.
00:42:08Thanks for protecting me.
00:42:11Jack is above hitting women.
00:42:12But I'm not.
00:42:17Now why don't you escort us in?
00:42:19Oh my God!
00:42:20Oh!
00:42:20Oh!
00:42:21Oh!
00:42:21Oh!
00:42:22Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:23Oh!
00:42:28Oh!
00:42:41Carl!
00:42:42Emma's attacking me!
00:42:44Emma!
00:42:45The board meeting is in progress to determine your fate!
00:42:48And as you are the involved party, you cannot be here.
00:42:54Emma is a chairwoman, and as the chairwoman, she's also a member of the school board.
00:43:21So any school board meeting without the chairwoman is ineligible.
00:43:28So your decision today, well, it doesn't matter.
00:43:33Now tell me, who's for and who's against?
00:43:42Emma, the forgery that you presented, Chairman Grumman, is the reason that the school has lost its funding.
00:43:49Or have you forgotten enough with your baseless accusations?
00:43:56I have uncovered the truth, and it was you.
00:44:04You were the one who planted the forgery in an attempt to ruin my wife's good reputation.
00:44:10Where's your proof?
00:44:17Without proof, your accusations are just slander.
00:44:22We're not interested in your personal differences with Mr. Davis.
00:44:28We need solutions.
00:44:30That's right.
00:44:31The school has no funding.
00:44:33We need to do something.
00:44:34Hey, don't worry.
00:44:38I got this.
00:44:48Funding won't be a problem.
00:44:49In three days, the governor's daughter, Vivian, will be hosting a charity banquet in the city.
00:44:58She works for the Orion Corporation.
00:45:01So what?
00:45:02So, Emma will attend as chairwoman, and once she secures a donation from the governor's daughter, Vivian,
00:45:10the school will have more than enough funding.
00:45:14I didn't know anything about this.
00:45:16Don't be absurd.
00:45:18Why would the governor's daughter care about what you have to say?
00:45:21Because I'm her boss.
00:45:28Now, any objections?
00:45:30You, a janitor.
00:45:37Now, why would Vivian, the governor's daughter, listen to you?
00:45:43Ridiculous!
00:45:44Jack, you're just a janitor.
00:45:47You're not fooling anyone.
00:45:48You're expecting this janitor to save you?
00:45:52Ha!
00:45:54Ridiculous!
00:45:56Jack, can you really take care of this?
00:45:59We can't risk anything.
00:46:01Trust me, Emma.
00:46:03Emma, you have been making mistake after mistake after mistake ever since you chose a janitor as a husband.
00:46:14Jack, I...
00:46:15That's enough!
00:46:17What we need is more money.
00:46:21You see, sweetheart?
00:46:23They can't wait for our demise.
00:46:26Well, what should we do?
00:46:27Don't worry.
00:46:28I came doubly prepared.
00:46:29We're talking $30 million.
00:46:32$30 million?
00:46:34I could bring $300 million.
00:46:36Come in.
00:46:45Come in.
00:46:46Come in.
00:46:50Come in.
00:46:56Who?
00:46:57Your janitor buddies?
00:46:59They're too busy mopping the floor.
00:47:09I prepared $30 million for this school.
00:47:13It's going to arrive in three minutes.
00:47:14Jack, it was already a stretch to say that we could get all the funding from Vivian.
00:47:20How are you going to get $30 million?
00:47:22It's $30 million, Jack.
00:47:25You could sell Emma.
00:47:27You still come up short.
00:47:28But now you say you'll have the money ready in three minutes?
00:47:33That's absurd.
00:47:34What if I do?
00:47:35If you bring us $30 million, I will get down on my knees and I will lick your shoes.
00:47:43But if you fail, you'll get down on your knees and beg me for mercy.
00:47:53Deal.
00:47:54I'd say we got about one more minute.
00:47:57Mr. Davis, you're too kind.
00:48:01But this isn't something getting on your knees will solve.
00:48:05Emma still needs to be fired.
00:48:06That's right.
00:48:08It's why we're gathered here today.
00:48:10Emma, don't be stubborn.
00:48:13We need you.
00:48:14Roman's support.
00:48:16Only Principal Davis can save the school from bankruptcy now.
00:48:21Emma, don't worry.
00:48:23I won't make you beg.
00:48:25Just be in my bed this evening.
00:48:29I'll help you out.
00:48:30I promise.
00:48:31That's disgusting.
00:48:33Well, been three minutes.
00:48:35Where's the money?
00:48:36I won't make you beg.
00:48:37I won't make you beg.
00:48:37I won't make you beg.
00:48:38I won't make you beg.

00:48:41I won't make you beg.
00:48:42I won't make you beg.
00:48:42I won't make you beg.
00:48:43I won't make you beg.
00:48:43I won't make you beg.
00:48:44I won't make you beg.
00:48:45I won't make you beg.
00:48:46I won't make you beg.
00:48:47I won't make you beg.
00:48:48I won't make you beg.
00:48:49I won't make you beg.
00:48:50I won't make you beg.
00:48:51I won't make you beg.
00:48:52I won't make you beg.
00:48:53I won't make you beg.

00:59:04I
00:59:09I
00:59:13It looks like I found your big secret.
00:59:43Principal Davis, it's been a long time.
00:59:58I heard that Chairman Grumman personally invited you as a guest of honor.
01:00:02Yes, of course.
01:00:04As you know, our school is in need of some resources.
01:00:07Well, Mr. Davis, your school should be honored to have such a hardworking, dedicated principal.
01:00:13You'd make a splendid headmaster, should you get the chance.
01:00:21Hi.
01:00:34Principal Davis, thank you so much for inviting us to such an important banquet.
01:00:40Hello, Mike. You're welcome.
01:00:42I'm so glad you could make it.
01:00:44Mr. Davis, I heard that all of high society was clamoring for an invitation tonight.
01:00:49Thank you so much for inviting us.
01:00:51Oh, no. You should be thanking your father, Old Man Jack.
01:00:55Who is that? They're so intimidating.
01:00:56Isn't that Emma? Why is she here? Who's that man with her? He looks important.
01:01:10Mike, isn't that your dad? But isn't he just a janitor? That's right. He's just a janitor.
01:01:25Dad, what are you doing here? You shouldn't be at a place like this.
01:01:27Who are you? He's my son. That's right. I'm his son. And who are you? Why did you bring him to such a high-class banquet?
01:01:32I'm Emma Grayson, the chairwoman. And who I bring as a guest is no one's business but my own.
01:01:47Chairwoman? So you should know my father is just a janitor at your school.
01:01:52Mike, shut up.
01:01:54Dad, don't embarrass me in front of everybody. Mr. Davis personally invited me here.
01:01:58You're just a janitor. Why do you get to be here?
01:02:00Oh, Mike, don't be so hard on your father. After all, he's no simple janitor.
01:02:15Carl, what are you trying to say?
01:02:16Nothing. It's just not everyone is so sorry.
01:02:18You're the only one who's doing this.
01:02:21I'm the only one who's doing this.
01:02:23I'm the only one who's doing this.
01:02:25I'm the only one who's doing it.
01:02:26I'm the only one who's doing it.
01:02:27Nothing, it's just not everyone is supposed to be here.
01:02:31Miss Grayson, if I remember correctly, you weren't invited.
01:02:36Is security just letting anyone into the charity banquet?
01:02:39I was invited.
01:02:40Oh, really? By whom?
01:02:43Because I'm pretty sure Mr. Davis never sent you an invitation.
01:02:54My invitation.
01:02:55Impossible.
01:02:57Mike, was your dad actually invited?
01:03:03Mr. Grumman would never have invited you.
01:03:07Emma.
01:03:08Crashing a charity banquet posted for the elite?
01:03:11That doesn't seem proper.
01:03:13Proper?
01:03:15Proper by whose standards?
01:03:17Principal Davises?
01:03:19Jack, what are you trying to say?
01:03:21Give the invitation back.
01:03:22No.
01:03:23This invitation is a fake.
01:03:26What are you doing?
01:03:27Emma, your invitation is a fake.
01:03:40What are you doing?
01:03:41Emma, your invitation is a fake.
01:03:53What do you mean?
01:03:54I personally designed all the invitations myself.
01:03:58Our guests all had invitations that were blue and silver.
01:04:03He's right.
01:04:04Their invitation looks completely different from mine.
01:04:06This is so embarrassing for Emma.
01:04:08Emma and Jack must feel humiliated.
01:04:11Dad, if you're going to forge an invitation, at least make it the right color.
01:04:15Mike, I can't believe your father would do this.
01:04:18How?
01:04:19Are you so certain that the invitation is fake?
01:04:22Of course.
01:04:23A black invitation.
01:04:24Don't be ridiculous.
01:04:25The black invitation was delivered in person.
01:04:26It's for one person.
01:04:27The guest of honor.
01:04:28It's above your pay grade, so that's why you didn't see it.
01:04:29Good job.
01:04:30You're taking your bluff a little too far.
01:04:31Guest of honor?
01:04:32You?
01:04:33You're a fraud.
01:04:34Who does this guy think he is?
01:04:38A black invitation?
01:04:45He's too special for us.
01:04:46Ridiculous.
01:04:48Dad, you're embarrassing yourself.
01:04:51Carl, we'll find out who he is for this other winner.
01:05:02We'll find out who the true fraud is soon enough.
01:05:05Jack, we're done with your lies.
01:05:07Security, take them out of here.
01:05:10Sir, may I?
01:05:26There's no push.
01:05:27Chairman Grumman, you got here just in time.
01:05:33Some people are trying to crash the charity banquet.
01:05:37They even forge their invitations.
01:05:40Don't worry, we're on it.
01:05:42Forging invitations to the charity banquet.
01:05:44Who would dare?
01:05:46They chose the wrong color, too.
01:05:48They have black invitations, thinking that they could fool us.
01:05:53Black invitation?
01:05:54Could it be the VIP invitation that Vivian had me personally prepare?
01:06:00Let me see who.
01:06:07Emma?
01:06:09It can't be you.
01:06:10Why can't it be me?
01:06:12Can you be the guest of honor that the governor's daughter Vivian mentioned?
01:06:15Guest of honor?
01:06:23I didn't hear anything about that.
01:06:25I received an invitation, so I came here to the charity banquet.
01:06:28That's it.
01:06:32Sherman Grumman, was a black and gold invitation really sent out?
01:06:35I can't confirm that we did prepare a special black invitation for the guest of honor, but the identity of that guest is still unknown.
01:06:47So, Emma, show me your invitation.
01:06:51I can't.
01:06:53Carl destroyed it.
01:06:54I cannot tell anything from such a small piece.
01:07:03Chairman Grumman, it couldn't be Emma, let alone her janitor husband.
01:07:09Do you remember that painting that they forged and gave you?
01:07:13Are you saying that Emma's invitation is also a forgery?
01:07:17Emma, what do you have to say for yourself?
01:07:32It isn't a forgery.
01:07:33Mr. Grumman, the painting, did you have it appraised?
01:07:38What did they say?
01:07:40It is genuine.
01:07:43However.
01:07:45However?
01:07:46Remember, the painting belongs to the governor's daughter, Vivian.
01:07:58Oh my god.
01:08:00How did the janitor get his hands on that painting?
01:08:03Who is this man?
01:08:06The painting belongs to Vivian?
01:08:11Correct.
01:08:12The painting belonged to Vivian.
01:08:14Jack.
01:08:14You stole the painting from Vivian?
01:08:17Stole?
01:08:18Carl, you have such an active imagination.
01:08:21Okay, Jack.
01:08:21How did you get a hold of that painting?
01:08:24Vivian gave it to me.
01:08:28The governor's daughter gave it to you, Vivian.
01:08:32You're a janitor.
01:08:34Who's going to believe your lies?
01:08:35Emma, you must apologize and beg Vivian for forgiveness the moment she arrives.
01:08:40Stealing from the elite?
01:08:42That's a serious crime.
01:08:45Dad.
01:08:46What has gotten into you?
01:08:48You've disappeared from our lives for 20 years, and the moment you come back, you've
01:08:51been causing us nothing but trouble.
01:08:57Jack, stealing from the elite will affect us.
01:09:00If it comes down to it, I'll divorce your son and take my kids with me.
01:09:06Dad.
01:09:07Please.
01:09:08Just leave.
01:09:12Mike.
01:09:12Do you even hear yourself?
01:09:16I'm your family.
01:09:17I'm your father.
01:09:20Not anymore.
01:09:21What?
01:09:22You're my dad.
01:09:23When have you ever acted like it?
01:09:27When I was a kid, were you ever even around?
01:09:29You missed my wedding.
01:09:31You missed my graduation.
01:09:33And you missed my son being born.
01:09:37Where were you?
01:09:39Now because of your worthless pride, you're lying about your status and your connections?
01:09:44Did you ever take a moment to think what that could do to your son?
01:09:47What your lies could do to my family?
01:09:50Lisa's been at my side all these years, and I can't lose her.
01:10:01We've both had enough.
01:10:05I can't lose everything I've worked for just because of you.
01:10:12Mike, I never knew.
01:10:15You never knew because you, you never cared.
01:10:19You've only cared about yourself.
01:10:41Vivian has arrived.
01:10:43General Lewis is here too.
01:10:44Vivian, you're finally here.
01:10:50Oh.
01:10:51Sounds like you're sick of waiting.
01:10:53Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:10:54We're honored.
01:10:55We are so honored to have you here tonight.
01:11:10Vivian, there's somebody I would like to introduce you to.
01:11:12This is the man who single-handedly organized the charity banquet tonight.
01:11:18This is Mr. Davis, and he is our principal.
01:11:21Vivian.
01:11:23General Lewis.
01:11:25Good evening.
01:11:30Good evening, everyone.
01:11:31Vivian is pleased to announce that tonight she plans to approve a $10 billion grant.
01:11:38Oh, my God.
01:11:46$10 billion?
01:11:47Whoa.
01:11:49Jack, did you hear that?
01:11:50$10 billion?
01:11:51Yes.
01:11:52I heard.
01:11:54And she will be personally selecting a representative to oversee that grant with final say over the allocation of all funds.
01:12:02Looks like I may be coming out on top.
01:12:05Congratulations, Principal Davis.
01:12:08Or should I say, Headmaster Davis.
01:12:12Good evening.
01:12:13Tonight's charity banquet is not just about a donation.
01:12:18It's about an investment in our future generation.
01:12:22This grant will provide free education to countless young minds to help them reach their full potential.
01:12:30I am looking for someone committed to forging a brighter future.
01:12:34Looks like the show's about to begin.
01:12:43Vivian.
01:12:44Please wait a moment.
01:12:47I have an important accusation to make.
01:12:51Here, at this important charity banquet, there is someone who came here uninvited, forging an invitation.
01:13:04But, not only are they a fraud, they're a thief as well.
01:13:09They stole your priceless painting.
01:13:12We must get on this at once.
01:13:17Who would be so bold?
01:13:20Now, I heard, at the Governor's Gallery, there's a precious old painting valued at $50 million.
01:13:29Yes, that's correct.
01:13:31Are you still in possession of this painting?
01:13:34No, I am not.
01:13:37They are the thieves of this painting.
01:13:40You're lying.
01:13:44We didn't forge anything, and we're not thieves.
01:13:47Tiffany, you're clearly just projecting.
01:13:50You know very well what you're guilty of.
01:13:53You're saying they stole a painting from my gallery?
01:13:58Yes.
01:13:58And luckily, Chairman Grumman caught it just in time.
01:14:02Please, let us return this priceless painting to you.
01:14:10Vivian, we just can't stand for this criminal behavior.
01:14:17Yes, they cannot get away with stealing from the Governor.
01:14:20They need to be punished.
01:14:22It's not true.
01:14:24We wouldn't dare steal from the Governor.
01:14:26That painting...
01:14:26I brought the painting.
01:14:32Jack, what are you saying?
01:14:36The painting.
01:14:39I brought it.
01:14:40Jack, you admitted.
01:14:43We're finally manning up.
01:14:46Mike, it's a good thing you cut your father off before we could be dragged down with him.
01:14:50Dad, have you gone insane?
01:14:52Do you know what would happen to you?
01:14:54How serious stealing from the Governor is?
01:14:56I didn't steal.
01:14:58You didn't.
01:14:59How did it just fall into your hands?
01:15:01Did Vivian give it to you?
01:15:05Jack, you're a dirty janitor who doesn't deserve such a beautiful painting.
01:15:11Jack, he's not a thief.
01:15:14There must be a misunderstanding.
01:15:17He did all this for me.
01:15:19Punish me instead.
01:15:20Emma, you don't have to do this.
01:15:28I can't let this happen to you.
01:15:30You've done so much to help me.
01:15:33Emma, you're gonna lose everything.
01:15:36He'll even lose the title as chairwoman.
01:15:39Jack has stood by me every time.
01:15:42I'm willing to do the same for him.
01:15:44Emma, you don't have to do this.
01:15:48We're family.
01:15:50We share the same problems, and we deal with them together.
01:15:58Emma, you're willing to give up everything for Jack.
01:16:04Yes, Vivian.
01:16:06Very well.
01:16:08But there's something you all should know.
01:16:11I never said the painting was stolen.
01:16:14What?
01:16:15If the painting wasn't stolen, how else could a janitor have gotten his hands on it?
01:16:20Because it was already given as a gift.
01:16:23What?
01:16:26Gifted?
01:16:27To whom?
01:16:30To my boss.
01:16:31The CEO of Orion Company.
01:16:34Does that mean my dad is?
01:16:36Impossible.
01:16:37Your dad is a janitor.
01:16:39How could he be Orion Corporation's CEO?
01:16:42No, no, no.
01:16:43The Orion Corporation is an international arms company.
01:16:47It's control spans the whole world.
01:16:50The CEO has been famously discreet, and he has never made a public appearance.
01:16:55How were you able to steal the painting from the Orion Corporation?
01:17:00First, you accused me of stealing the painting from the governor's gallery.
01:17:04Now, stealing it from the Orion Corporation?
01:17:06What?
01:17:06Am I some kind of phantom thief?
01:17:09Jack, shut up!
01:17:12You're a dirty janitor who's not even supposed to be here!
01:17:19Yeah!
01:17:21He's a filthy janitor who forged an invitation to be here.
01:17:26Wait.
01:17:27What did you say?
01:17:28Yes, sir.
01:17:29As I was saying, they never received an invitation.
01:17:33They forged a document that looked like an invitation and said that it came from Chairman
01:17:37Grumman.
01:17:39It's all lies.
01:17:40Well, yeah, that invitation was destroyed well before I had the opportunity to verify it.
01:17:45Who destroyed it?
01:17:47I did.
01:18:00Carl, you hope this idiot.
01:18:02Jack is my guest of honor.
01:18:04His invitation was personally prepared by us.
01:18:10General Lewis, how is this possible?
01:18:18Jack?
01:18:19How could he?
01:18:20Guest of honor?
01:18:22My father.
01:18:23Mike, why didn't you tell me your dad was invited by the governor's daughter?
01:18:27I didn't know.
01:18:30How could you hide this from me?
01:18:32Hide?
01:18:32Mike, I never hid anything from you.
01:18:39I only wanted to spend time with my family, with my son.
01:18:45And you pushed me away.
01:18:47You never told me who you were.
01:18:49I thought you were an ordinary person.
01:18:52Mike, status is not how you should value a person's worth.
01:18:57He never hid anything.
01:19:00He just wanted to live a quiet life with you, but you chose to reject him.
01:19:09I didn't know.
01:19:11I thought you were a janitor.
01:19:13A failure of a father.
01:19:15This can't be.
01:19:15Mike has been trying to climb the ranks, never realizing his father could have helped him.
01:19:20Mike, people who are obsessed with rank and status, they're doomed for failure.
01:19:30Because they lose sight of what truly matters.
01:19:34Family.
01:19:35Family.
01:19:37And the people that they love.
01:19:41Dad, don't be like that.
01:19:44Mike and I are still your family, right?
01:19:46Family.
01:19:47Lisa, you are the person that tore this family apart.
01:19:53You are so obsessed with climbing the social ladder, you didn't even realize that you were being used.
01:19:59Used?
01:20:00What do you mean?
01:20:01Why are you even here?
01:20:03Can't you see you're the odd man out?
01:20:05The only reason that they invited you was to try to humiliate me.
01:20:10And you played right into their hands.
01:20:12You gave them everything that they wanted.
01:20:14Carl, you lied to me.
01:20:18No, this is nonsense.
01:20:20Then tell him, tell Dad that we deserve to be here, that you invited us personally.
01:20:25Say it!
01:20:26You little shit.
01:20:28We don't know you.
01:20:30Stay away from Carl, you dumb bitch.
01:20:33Carl is ruthless turning on them like that.
01:20:36Poor Lisa.
01:20:38Played like a fool.
01:20:39That's enough!
01:20:43Girl, he's too out of here now.
01:20:45No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:20:48Dad, Dad, save me, please, please, please, come on, stop me, stop me, stop me, stop me, stop me, stop me, stop me, stop me!
01:20:53I can't believe Jack was personally invited by the governor's family as the guest of honor, but I can't lose sight of the real prize.
01:21:05As long as I secure that $10 billion grant, I'll still be the winner tonight.
01:21:10Emma, look at what you've done.
01:21:13How could you do this to me?
01:21:15Carl, shut up.
01:21:18Everyone, sorry for the interruption, but we still must not lose sight of our goal tonight.
01:21:24We are here to honor our Tyler's educators.
01:21:28So, let's continue.
01:21:30Yes, Chairman Grumman, let's continue.
01:21:35Jack, I'm nervous.
01:21:37There's no need for you to be nervous.
01:21:39Why?
01:21:39Because I told you, tonight, you're the star of this charity event.
01:21:47Now, who would like to put their name forward for the grant?
01:21:55Vivian, our lovely governor's daughter, I would be honored to be in charge of that $10 billion grant.
01:22:04I'd also like to put myself into consideration, Vivian.
01:22:11Chairman Grayson?
01:22:12But aren't they from the same school?
01:22:14They're competing against each other.
01:22:18Wow, this is the most exciting banquet I've ever seen.
01:22:23Emma, are you sure?
01:22:25This is a $10 billion grant.
01:22:28We can't have somebody that's so emotional at the helm.
01:22:32Emotional?
01:22:33Yes, I completely agree.
01:22:37Which is why I'm confident that I'm the right person for the job.
01:22:41This grant is a very serious matter.
01:22:43We must make the best possible choice.
01:22:47Who are they going to choose?
01:22:49Chairman Grumman?
01:22:51Principal Davis?
01:22:52It can't be Emma.
01:22:54Emma?
01:22:54With much deliberation, we have decided to award the grant to...
01:23:02Emma Grayson.
01:23:07Emma Grayson?
01:23:14Impossible.
01:23:16She got the $10 billion grant?
01:23:20Miss Grayson, please prepare a proposal for the grant.
01:23:23We'll set it up with you as the director as soon as possible.
01:23:27The $10 billion grant will be under your complete discretion.
01:23:30Jack, am I dreaming?
01:23:32No, you're not dreaming, Emma.
01:23:34I told you.
01:23:35Tonight.
01:23:36You are the star of the ball.
01:23:45Vivian, this is not right.
01:23:48Um...
01:23:48Why?
01:23:49Why Emma?
01:23:50This is impossible.
01:23:52Emma's just...
01:23:54a normal person.
01:23:55Who Emma is, is not important.
01:23:59What is important is who Emma chose.
01:24:04Boss?
01:24:14I can't believe you're the CEO of Orion Corporation.
01:24:18The world's largest arms manufacturer.
01:24:20Yes.
01:24:22But more importantly,
01:24:24I'm your husband.
01:24:28Jack!
01:24:29Jack!
01:24:30No, no, no.
01:24:31Mr. Bradshaw!
01:24:33Please, please, forgive my insolence.
01:24:37I have no idea who you were!
01:24:40Yeah, I'm...
01:24:41Mr. Bradshaw, I'm...
01:24:42I'm so sorry.
01:24:43Please, have mercy.
01:24:45Mr. Grumman.
01:24:46Carl.
01:24:49I've seen enough.
01:24:50I'll be looking into your finances.
01:24:53I hope you haven't left any...
01:24:55proof of your...
01:24:57poor...
01:24:58behavior.
01:25:00I'm sorry.
01:25:01Yeah, no, I really can't.
01:25:02Oh, my God.
01:25:03I can't believe the janitor turned out to be the CEO of Orion Corporation.
01:25:13I know.
01:25:13Chairman and Grumman are doomed.
01:25:16Emma is so lucky.
01:25:19Emma, you are a kind, brave woman.
01:25:23Boss is lucky to have met you.
01:25:26Boss, I'd like to congratulate you.
01:25:28Miss Grayson as well.
01:25:29You won't bless his heart.
01:25:31You earned our trust on the multi.
01:25:33Thank you both.
01:25:34Your blessing means everything to us.
01:25:41Emma,
01:25:42you loved me
01:25:44even when you thought I was just a janitor.
01:25:46You stood by my side
01:25:49when you didn't have to.
01:25:51You're strong.
01:25:53You're brave.
01:25:55And you're beautiful.
01:25:58Will you be my wife?
01:26:01Will you marry me?
