00:00Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in thanking Mrs. Elaine Montgomery for her extraordinary donation of $500 million for Stellar
00:08Education Foundation.
00:14Excuse me, we got a phone call.
00:18One moment.
00:22Elaine, I don't care what dump you're wasting your time at.
00:25It's Christmas tomorrow, and I want you to get your three deadbeat kids and get your ass back home.
00:30I'm not the same person I used to be.
00:35Hi, sweetheart. Change of plans. We're heading back to town for Christmas tomorrow.
00:41Welcome back, sir.
00:42Got it. I'm on my way.
00:44Both of them Montgomery, your motherboards. Thank you.
00:47Okay, great. I'll get in a fight soon.
00:53General!
00:57Hey, Mom. Yeah, I'll be there. I promise.
01:01Okay.
01:03All right, everybody, wrap it up!
01:05Nothing better!
01:07We won't dare to disrespect you again, Mom. I'm not under my watch.
01:14I can't believe after all these years, we're finally all going to be together again.
01:22Ma'am, this is the gift Mr. Jack prepared. A limited edition cigar and your hot couture gun. Let me
01:28carry it in for you.
01:29Let's tone it down, okay? Um, put it in something simple. I'm not here to show off.
01:34All right.
01:38Thank you. I'll take it from here. I'd like to keep it low-key.
01:48Hi, Daddy.
01:50Merry Christmas, Daddy. I brought you this expensive bottle of wine. It's from Greg's collection. There's only 12 left in
01:59the entire world.
02:00Ha! That's my girl!
02:03Robert, you raised a good one.
02:05Damn right I did.
02:06Sophia, your being here is the best gift that I could ever ask for. And yes, I did raise a
02:12good one.
02:12She just got promoted to senior director of one of the biggest firms in the state. And my son-in
02:20-law, Greg, Fortune 500 CEO. I hope you appreciate his new BMW.
02:28What about your daughter? Elaine, right?
02:32Her? Uh, I don't know. She... She can't even afford a car.
02:38Merry Christmas, Dad. I brought you your favorite...
02:41What the hell is this? You stop off at some thrift store on your way here? Trying to make a
02:46joke out of me?
02:54Look at what Sophia brought me. A beautiful bottle of wine. And you, you turn up with me.
03:01With a, with, with, with, with what? A grocery bag? Take that back to wherever it came from.
03:07Well, I heard after the divorce, Elaine been running around in a small store.
03:12Barely keeping the lights on.
03:14Where are the kids?
03:15They're stuck at work, but they'll be here later.
03:18Work? Please. Your kids don't have real jobs. They're just a bunch of losers like their mother.
03:25Elaine! Oh! Oh!
03:30Come inside and help me check on the desserts, okay?
03:34Don't let it get to you, sweetheart. Your father just cares too much about what people think.
03:41I'm fine, Mom. I'm, I'm used to it by now.
03:44My two most successful kids deserve to sit where everyone can see them.
03:56Oh! I dropped my ring. Elaine, can you please pick it up?
04:00You dropped it. You pick it up. What?
04:05Greg and Sophia are serious executives. And you, well, you basically live off of your dead husband's life insurance. So,
04:15yeah, you gotta pick it up.
04:17Dad, that's way out of line.
04:18I said pick it up.
04:25Sophia!
04:27Dad! She just tried to push me down.
04:31I asked you to do one simple thing, and you pull this. That's it. Now get out on the patio
04:37and set up.
04:39Robert, it's fine. I'll go do it.
04:43No, Mom. You stay. I'll go.
04:47Stay busy, sis. I hear poor people do that really well.
04:55Hey, sweetheart. You guys on the road?
04:58Mom? You don't sound right. Did something happen?
05:03I'm fine.
05:04Um, how far out are you?
05:07Okay, we're almost there. And I'm not coming alone.
05:10I promise nobody's gonna treat you like shit again.
05:13Not while I'm around.
05:17I'm fine. Don't you worry about me.
05:20But just don't bring your people inside tonight.
05:24Um, you'll give your grandfather a heart attack.
05:26Mom, I need to tell you something.
05:28I looked into Greg's financials.
05:30His winery is drowning in debt.
05:32Do you want me to give Grandpa a heads up?
05:34Lena, hold off on that.
05:37Tonight's Christmas Eve.
05:39Let them have their dignity for one night.
05:42Okay. Got it.
05:43We're really just coming to see you.
05:45Oh, and by the way, we made a sizable donation to the town in your name.
05:48Those people who are bullying you, they're about to realize who you really are.
05:53So just...
05:53Hang in there, okay? We're coming.
05:56I will.
05:56See you soon.
05:58Love you.
06:04Elaine, take this. It's from Sophia's collection, Top Chef.
06:09Give it to your father.
06:12Do not let them take advantage of you.
06:15Mom, I can't take Sophia's wine.
06:18The present I brought is perfectly fine.
06:21Jack picked it himself.
06:23I'm sure it's wonderful, honey.
06:25But your father is very ussy.
06:27Trust me, he's going to like what I brought.
06:30Check this out.
06:32Mom is trying to give Elena your bottle of wine so she can gift it to Dad?
06:37And pretend it's hers.
06:38What the hell? That bottle is worth like two grand.
06:41Okay, I've got an idea.
06:44When she gives it to Dad, we will expose her in front of everyone.
06:48Yeah, I like that.
06:50And did you see what she's wearing? That fake Petit Philippe?
06:52What did she knock off?
06:54I have an idea.
06:56What if you accidentally bump into her, knock it off her wrist,
07:00and then we can expose her in front of the whole family for being the poor little fake she is?
07:05Oh my God.
07:05I just got an idea.
07:08My company got a luxury authenticator.
07:11I'll have them bring it over to here,
07:13and we'll expose her right in front of everyone.
07:16Buster.
07:17Is this too much?
07:19Maybe I should have left it at home.
07:24I'll have to trust you.
07:26I'll have to trust you.
07:27It's good to see you.
07:34Mom?
07:35Merry Christmas.
07:37Oh, I got this just for you.
07:39It is a Van Cleef and Arpels bracelet.
07:42It's custom design.
07:44It's beautiful.
07:46Thank you, Lonnie.
07:47Um, Merry Christmas, Mom.
07:49I brought you something.
07:52Hey, Elaine.
07:54Didn't you just take that big bottle of Chateau Margaux from Mom?
07:58I thought that was your big gift.
08:02Hold on.
08:03My Thanksgiving gift?
08:05Mary.
08:06I know you have a soft spot for her name.
08:08We all do.
08:10But giving her my gift so she can pretend it's hers?
08:12Well, that's...
08:13That's insulting.
08:15Okay, I'm sorry.
08:17I didn't mean to.
08:18I just...
08:20What the hell is going on here?
08:23Tell you what, sis.
08:24You get on your knees and beg real nice,
08:27and maybe I'll give you some of my old clothes.
08:29You know, the ones I was gonna donate anyway.
08:32I didn't steal anything.
08:34I brought my own gift.
08:35Every time you showed up, you do nothing but cause problems.
08:39Can't you just sit down and shut up for myself?
08:49Oops!
08:52My watch!
08:53Sophia, you did this on purpose.
08:56It's just a cheap watch anyway, right?
08:59You know, if you're really that sad about it, I'll just buy you a new one.
09:02This watch was a gift from my husband.
09:05He gave it to me when he died.
09:07It's irreplaceable.
09:09You could have paid for it in 10 lifetimes.
09:13Wait.
09:14Is that particularly Sky, Moon, Torbillon?
09:20Give me a break.
09:22Look at her.
09:23She's practically homeless.
09:25Everything she's wearing was either borrowed or from a dumpster.
09:29That watch has to be a knockoff.
09:30You couldn't afford something like that in a million years.
09:33This watch was my husband's grandfather's.
09:37It's been passed down for three generations.
09:40It's real.
09:41Words are cheap, Elaine.
09:43Prove it.
09:45You, sir.
09:47You're one of the top watch authenticators in New York, aren't you?
09:51Mind taking a look?
09:53Of course.
09:53Please.
09:54Is there any way it can be repaired?
09:57Drop the act, Elaine.
09:59Geez.
10:00Tell you what.
10:01If that piece of junk is worth more than 50 bucks, I'll get on my knees and apologize.
10:06I'm sorry.
10:07But it's a fake.
10:09Only the movement looks like it might be worth something.
10:12That loser that she married never had anything worth a damn.
10:18Don't call him that, Dad.
10:20You can look down on me all you want.
10:23But don't insult Richard.
10:25Are you talking back to me?
10:32You ungrateful bitch.
10:34Now apologize to your sister.
10:36So this is what they really think of me?
10:39This is what I'm worth to this family?
10:42Elaine, we all get that you're struggling.
10:45But lying in front of everyone to protect your ego?
10:48Well, it's honestly pathetic.
10:52I wasn't lying.
10:54The watch is real.
10:56Everything you're wearing probably costs less than my shoes.
11:00There is no way that watch is real.
11:04You really think that we'll believe you could wear a million dollar watch?
11:09Fine.
11:11Let's make a bet.
11:13What kind of bet?
11:15If everything I'm wearing costs more than $50,000,
11:19you will apologize to me in front of everyone.
11:23And if not, you get on your knees and apologize to me.
11:29Do you know what this is?
11:32Do you know what this is?
11:40That's an unharmed caliber.
11:42Those watches only exist in eight figures.
11:50Let me have a better look at it.
11:53Oh, just wait a minute.
11:55How do we know these two aren't in it together?
11:59She's been broke for years and now she's wearing a million dollar watch?
12:02No.
12:03That doesn't add up.
12:05Oh, excuse me, sir.
12:06I've been working in this industry for 30 years.
12:08I've been building my reputation and I'm not gonna risk it for just some woman that I've never met.
12:13That's insulting.
12:14Well, wait.
12:16He's got a point.
12:17I mean, where are the papers?
12:19The certificates?
12:21You can't just say it's real and expect us all to believe you.
12:25If you say it's valuable, that means you know a price.
12:28So why don't you tell all of us what is it worth?
12:32I don't know the exact price.
12:34It was Richard's grandfather's.
12:36It was passed down through generations.
12:39It's a family heirloom, but to me it's priceless.
12:42Elaine, please.
12:46Just admit it.
12:47You brought a fake watch to impress us all.
12:50It's pathetic.
12:51You lying little bitch.
12:54I mean, you are a disgrace to this family.
12:56Get out of this house.
12:58You are dead to me.
12:59Oh!
13:00Robert!
13:01Robert!
13:02Stop it!
13:04That is your trial.
13:05Why am I always such a disappointment to you?
13:11Why do you always believe Sophia over me?
13:15You can't trust me.
13:17Even once.
13:22Ma'am, the item you requested is here.
13:27Get an authenticator over here right now.
13:30I'm gonna expose that bitch Elaine for the fraud that sh-
