00:00:26To be continued...
00:00:30I trust you'll stay quiet about what happened here.
00:00:32The Lord sees and hears everything.
00:00:46Three years at a convent, and you still haven't fixed that attitude.
00:00:50Come on, let's go. We're going home.
00:00:56What happened?
00:00:57She used to be my shadow.
00:01:05Mark, you're back! How was work?
00:01:07Mom said you've been swamped. Here, let me help.
00:01:14You mad at me or something?
00:01:16I skipped an international conference to come pick you up in person.
00:01:19Come on, Mom and Dad are waiting.
00:01:21They put together this whole thing to welcome you home.
00:01:24Mom and Dad are dead to me.
00:01:25What are you talking about? You're my sister. You're a Blair.
00:01:28No. You guys only ever cared about Victoria.
00:01:32The girl you adopted to replace me.
00:01:34I'm just some stupid girl from the orphanage that no one wanted!
00:01:40Are you done?
00:01:41Okay, cut it out. Quit whining.
00:01:43Three years ago, you laced Grace Klein's drink at the pool party.
00:01:46You made her OD on Oxy, and she's still in a coma.
00:01:49We did everything we could to keep you out of jail.
00:01:51You had it easy, do you understand?
00:01:53Fuck, I thought the nuns would have shaped you up.
00:01:55You think this is over just because you got out?
00:01:57Every day Grace spends at the hospital is another day where you should be atoning for your sins!
00:02:04Grace! Grace! Grace!
00:02:18You skank!
00:02:19You put Oxycon in Grace's drink? How much did you give her?
00:02:22Are you trying to kill her?
00:02:23It wasn't me, Dad. It was Victoria!
00:02:27Shut up, you liar! I wish you were never born!
00:02:34I should have realized. My parents never loved me.
00:02:38I should have never left that orphanage.
00:02:40Time to go home, Elena. Don't make me say it again.
00:02:44I'm never going back there.
00:02:45Have a good life, Mr. Blavin.
00:02:47I hope we never see each other again.
00:02:55I hope we never see each other again.
00:02:59Elena! Sorry I'm late.
00:03:04Happy release day, Elena.
00:03:06Eric Gills.
00:03:07He grew up in the same orphanage I did and he was my best friend and the person I trusted
00:03:11the most in the world.
00:03:13Oh, Miss Elena!
00:03:14I promise I'll get into the same school you do!
00:03:16So I can always protect you as your knight in shining armor!
00:03:21But he stabbed me in the back when I needed him most.
00:03:24He put me in hell with his own two hands.
00:03:27Help!
00:03:32Help!
00:03:33Help!
00:03:33Help!
00:03:34Help!
00:03:36Help!
00:03:37Help!
00:03:38Help!
00:03:39Help!
00:03:40If you saw Victoria lacing Grace's drink, please just tell them the truth!
00:03:45I can't, Elena.
00:03:46Victoria grew up in wealth.
00:03:48She wouldn't last a day at the reform school.
00:03:50Just go in her place, alright?
00:03:59Eric ruined my life so he could get with Victoria.
00:04:02With her influence, he got scouted by a Big Ten school and now he's the next best thing in football.
00:04:06Look, I even got flowers for you.
00:04:12No thanks, Giles.
00:04:16If there's one thing I learned at reform school,
00:04:22now bark like a dog or we'll cane you.
00:04:34It's that you have to make yourself as small of a target as possible.
00:04:38That's the only way to survive when you have no one in your corner.
00:04:41The Blairs hate me, but at least they say it to my face.
00:04:45I'd rather know what I'm getting into than to have Eric pull the rug from out under me again.
00:04:57I changed my mind.
00:04:58Let's go.
00:05:01Elena!
00:05:12Mom and dad have been worried sick over you the past three years.
00:05:16Be nice when you get back, okay?
00:05:20I want you to watch your temper and stop bullying Victoria.
00:05:24Don't make our life harder than it already is.
00:05:26Keep your head down and we won't treat you any different.
00:05:32Elena, are you even listening? I'm talking to you.
00:05:34I spent three years at that fucking reform school and they didn't come visit me on once.
00:05:39Thanksgiving, Christmas, spring break, nothing.
00:05:41It's only 30 miles out.
00:05:43They couldn't take two hours out of their day to see their own daughter.
00:05:45You still think they give a shit about me?
00:05:46It's because you keep acting like a child.
00:05:49They decided not to visit so you can have a chance to heal,
00:05:52to become a better person.
00:05:55Everything they did was for your own good, Elena.
00:05:57Elena.
00:06:00Elena.
00:06:03Elena.
00:06:05Elena.
00:06:06Elena.
00:06:06Elena.
00:06:07Elena.
00:06:08Elena.
00:06:15Hurry up and change into something presentable.
00:06:17I'll see you at the banquet hall.
00:06:21Oh.
00:06:21That's for Victoria.
00:06:35Home sweet home.
00:06:39This is where the Blairs had me live for threes before they sent me to the convent.
00:06:47Change into something presentable.
00:06:49As if I have anything nice to wear.
00:06:52Even the clothes I'm wearing I bought with my own money.
00:06:55Mom!
00:06:56Dad!
00:06:56Look what I bought!
00:06:58Elena.
00:06:59What on earth are you wearing?
00:07:01You're a blade now.
00:07:02You can't go out looking like this.
00:07:04Learn how to dress yourself properly, like Victoria.
00:07:06Now take that off and throw it out.
00:07:10I might be their bio daughter, but they never cared about me.
00:07:14They only ever cared about Victoria.
00:07:16Even though she's adopted, she's their real pride and joy.
00:07:20I'm just some shameful secret they managed to snatch back from the orphanage.
00:07:24They even made me the scapegoat for Victoria's crime.
00:07:28I wish you were never born!
00:07:29It wasn't me, Dad!
00:07:31It was Victoria!
00:07:34They sent me to that hellhole of a reform school to be tortured for the last three years.
00:07:41This is what I was wearing when they brought me here.
00:07:44So this is what I'm wearing to leave them for good.
00:07:49Congratulations.
00:07:50It's a big day for the Blairs.
00:07:53Ain't that the truth?
00:07:59Well, where's our special girl?
00:08:01She'll be out in just a minute.
00:08:06Who is that girl?
00:08:07Why is she wearing a dirty school uniform?
00:08:11Three years ago, my family had me dragged away like a criminal junkie in front of all the elites of
00:08:16New York.
00:08:19And now, their idea of a warm welcome is to air out all my dirty laundry for all their party
00:08:23guests to see.
00:08:25Because who cares about preserving my privacy or my dignity?
00:08:31What are you wearing?
00:08:32I thought I told you to put on something nice.
00:08:35You've been giving me attitude ever since I picked you up.
00:08:37Now you're trying to throw yourself a pity party by wearing those rags and making us look bad?
00:08:41Heck, it looks like we've been mistreating you.
00:08:45Elena Blather.
00:08:46You haven't changed at all.
00:08:48You're still a petty, stuck-up, impulsive child.
00:08:51You're not coming back until you change.
00:08:53Come on, stop being such an embarrassment.
00:08:56You damn run away!
00:08:58I don't have a dress.
00:08:59Then why didn't you buy one?
00:09:01Because I don't have any money!
00:09:03Elena, when you were at home, we wired you 10k a month for three whole years.
00:09:08That's $360,000.
00:09:10Was that really not enough for a dress and some decent-looking clothes?
00:09:13You're dressing like a ho-o to make us look like we're abusing you?
00:09:17Look, enough's enough.
00:09:19We've more than made it up to you.
00:09:20Don't bite the hand that feeds.
00:09:2110k?
00:09:22I never even got as much as $10 from you.
00:09:24If you're going to yell at me for something I didn't do,
00:09:26at least come up with something believable.
00:09:28That's it.
00:09:28If you won't stop making shit up, don't blame me for exposing you.
00:09:34Eva, I want you to check just exactly how much money we've sent to Elena over the years.
00:09:38Elena?
00:09:39Blabel?
00:09:40Yes.
00:09:41If it's Elena, there's no point in checking.
00:09:43What do you mean?
00:09:44Mr. Blaise,
00:09:45The estate's never given Elena anything.
00:09:48What did you say?
00:09:51Wait, what?
00:09:52But I specifically told them to-
00:09:53Mrs. Blainer canceled the payments.
00:09:56She was scared Elena might have picked up nasty habits,
00:09:59growing up in an orphanage with God knows who.
00:10:01She didn't trust Elena with 10k a month, so...
00:10:05She canceled her allowance.
00:10:07The extra money went to Victoria.
00:10:10Mrs. Blainer was worried Victoria would feel left out after Elena came back,
00:10:14so her allowance was up to 20k a month to compensate.
00:10:18Mr. Blainer,
00:10:20Please tell me you knew about this.
00:10:22Really?
00:10:24You're a billionaire,
00:10:25and your daughter doesn't get any spending money?
00:10:29Fine.
00:10:30Maybe you didn't get anything from the estate,
00:10:33but Mom and Dad would have given you something!
00:10:36The Blairs never gave me a single cent.
00:10:40Go ahead and ask them if you don't believe me.
00:10:43They're your parents.
00:10:44Surely you'll trust their word over mine.
00:10:48Mom?
00:10:49Dad?
00:10:50How much were you giving her?
00:10:52Well,
00:10:53I thought she was getting money from you,
00:10:57so I never...
00:10:58Me too!
00:10:59I thought the estate...
00:11:03Elena,
00:11:04why didn't you say anything?
00:11:05You should have told us you didn't get any money.
00:11:08Mommy would have given you anything if you just asked.
00:11:10Yeah!
00:11:11It's all my fault.
00:11:12I couldn't even tell you were struggling.
00:11:14But Elena,
00:11:15Mommy loves you just as much as she loves Victoria, okay?
00:11:19You're my mom,
00:11:20but you still gave away what was supposed to be mine to Victoria.
00:11:24You gave your adoptive daughter $20,000 all because you felt mad for her?
00:11:29Are you that scared of hurting her precious feelings?
00:11:32No, honey, I...
00:11:34You have a mouth and a brain.
00:11:36You could have just asked.
00:11:38Mom's right.
00:11:39You should have said something.
00:11:40We have billions.
00:11:42They're not so heartless they wouldn't give you a bit of cash if you needed it.
00:11:46I did tell you!
00:11:47But you didn't care enough to listen!
00:11:54Mom, Dad, can I have $300?
00:12:00It's for school.
00:12:01Money.
00:12:02It's always money with you.
00:12:04You wouldn't even have come home if we were poor, would you?
00:12:07Seriously.
00:12:08Sometimes I wonder why Mom and Dad even brought you back.
00:12:11Look at Victoria.
00:12:12She never asks us for money.
00:12:14And she just took the AMCs and placed 10th in the state.
00:12:16Why can't you be like her?
00:12:18Yeah, sure you did.
00:12:20What?
00:12:20I really did?
00:12:21I got first.
00:12:22Mark, you promised you'd get me something if I made it to the AMC.
00:12:27Well, what do you want?
00:12:29Um, there's this bag I've been looking at.
00:12:31But it's $10,000.
00:12:33What if you got it for me?
00:12:35As a treat?
00:12:36All right.
00:12:37I'll get it for you.
00:12:38As long as it makes my baby sister happy.
00:12:40It could be $100,000 for all I care.
00:12:43What are you still standing around for?
00:12:45Go to your room and think about what you did.
00:12:46You'll never be like Victoria.
00:12:50That girl's out of control.
00:12:52If only she had half the manners Victoria did.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:13:01Remember that?
00:13:04That's because you never did anything we could be proud of you for.
00:13:09And you're still a liar.
00:13:12I never lied about anything.
00:13:14I got first place in the AMCs.
00:13:16You just didn't want to believe me.
00:13:21Whatever.
00:13:24You didn't even know what school I went to.
00:13:26Why would you care if I won a math competition?
00:13:33Wait.
00:13:34Were you not at St. Augustine's with Victoria?
00:13:40I thought she went to St. Augustine's.
00:13:44Elena, what high school did you go to?
00:13:50I got first at the AMCs, so I got a full ride into Oak Ridge Valley Academy.
00:13:55Oak Ridge Valley?
00:13:56That's the best high school on the East Coast.
00:13:58They produce some of the top minds in our nations.
00:14:00Not like St. Augustine's where just having cash gets you through the door.
00:14:04Every kid that goes to Oak Ridge Valley is handpicked through a rigorous interview process.
00:14:07For Elena to get a full-run scholarship, she has to be a generational talent.
00:14:12No.
00:14:13No way.
00:14:14Oak Ridge Valley's 20 miles away.
00:14:15There's no way you made it to school every day riding on that crappy bike?
00:14:19Yeah.
00:14:20Me and Victoria were never at the same school.
00:14:23Ever wondered why I never ate breakfast with you guys?
00:14:25It's because I had to wake up at 5 every day so I can get to school by 7.
00:14:29And I never got any lunch money.
00:14:31So I had to make do with expired moldy bread.
00:14:35And then when I got home, you'd be done with dinner already.
00:14:38All I ever had was cold leftovers.
00:14:40And you would still call me a dirty hobo digging through the trash, scarfing down the food.
00:14:44Because I was so hungry by that point, I didn't even care anymore.
00:14:49Oh, Elena, I'm so sorry you had to live like that.
00:14:51I just never realized you were suffering.
00:14:54Save it.
00:14:55Look, you weren't around to see me grow up.
00:14:57It makes sense you wouldn't care about me at all.
00:15:00Whatever.
00:15:01I'm used to it.
00:15:03Can't break a kid who grew up in the system, right, Mrs. Blair?
00:15:08Mom, please!
00:15:10Just watch the security footage.
00:15:11I didn't do it.
00:15:12Victoria's the one that lays Grace's drink.
00:15:29Mom, did you just delete the security tape?
00:15:32Why would you do that?
00:15:35Are you seriously protecting Victoria over me right now?
00:15:39I'm your bio daughter!
00:15:42Elena, I'm so sorry, but I can't let them take Victoria.
00:15:45She's not cut out for that.
00:15:47But you grew up in this system, and you were fine.
00:15:50I know you won't break at the reform school either.
00:15:51So just go with the nuns and take Victoria's place, okay, honey?
00:16:01Shut up!
00:16:02What are you even saying, Elena?
00:16:04Oh, right.
00:16:05They never told you.
00:16:07The security camera caught everything!
00:16:10Victoria was the one that laced Grace's drink!
00:16:12But our poor, pathetic excuse of a mother decided to wipe the tapes to protect Victoria over me,
00:16:18even though I'm her bio daughter.
00:16:20She made me look like a guilty criminal in front of everyone!
00:16:22Come on!
00:16:24What?
00:16:30Stop lying.
00:16:31I know you're upset at us for ignoring you,
00:16:33but if you had a problem with us, it's your responsibility to say something.
00:16:38You're just jealous that Victoria had a better life than you did.
00:16:41That's why you've been bullying her and trying to pin all the blame on her.
00:16:44Did you stop and think for one second what's the right thing to do?
00:16:47No!
00:16:47You just kept on taking it out on us!
00:16:49You're the worst person I've ever met.
00:16:51Mark, don't say that about your sister.
00:16:53Mom, stop cuddling her.
00:16:55She needs to grow up.
00:16:56The only reason she's like this is because we kept caving into her tantrums.
00:16:59We tried so hard to get her into a reform school instead of prison,
00:17:02and how does she repays us?
00:17:04She comes back and ruins our party and makes it look like we're the bad guys!
00:17:09All right, stop it!
00:17:10Both of you!
00:17:11Elena, you should have told us you'd already gone home.
00:17:14Mommy and I would have gone out and got you a nice dress or something.
00:17:17Wait, you didn't know I had already gone home?
00:17:22Of course not, honey.
00:17:23I would have had the chauffeurs pick you up.
00:17:26Wait, how did you even get here?
00:17:28Mark picked me up.
00:17:29He said this was a welcome home party.
00:17:34Wait, I thought this was a birthday party for Victoria.
00:17:38That's what it said on the RSVP, Victoria Blair's 18th birthday.
00:17:42Since when was this for Elena?
00:17:44If it's Elena, then I'm leaving!
00:17:46She tried to kill the Klein kid three years ago.
00:17:49Poor girl's still in a coma.
00:17:50I don't want anything to do with that homicidal maniac.
00:17:54Ever since I started living with the Blairs, it's been one disappointment after another.
00:17:59No, Elena, please!
00:18:00You can't just abandon us!
00:18:11Victoria!
00:18:12Oh my god, Victoria!
00:18:17Victoria, are you okay?
00:18:19It's so bad, Mom.
00:18:20Ow.
00:18:21Oh, do you have a boo-boo?
00:18:22Let me see.
00:18:27Did Elena push you?
00:18:28I bet she shrugged you!
00:18:31No, no, Gabe.
00:18:33Are you fucking blind?
00:18:34Really?
00:18:35You're just gonna start running your mouth over nothing?
00:18:38She bumped into me on purpose!
00:18:41If anyone's blind, it's you!
00:18:43You!
00:18:57You want to know the truth?
00:19:00You want to know the truth?
00:19:00Ask literally anyone else!
00:19:05They all saw her bump into me!
00:19:08Yeah, uh, Mark, Victoria's shoulder-checked her.
00:19:12Pretty obvious.
00:19:13It was pretty obvious.
00:19:15Fine.
00:19:16Even if Victoria bumped into you, it was probably an accident!
00:19:19Why didn't you move?
00:19:20You didn't have to come crashing down!
00:19:22You did that on purpose!
00:19:24You think I'm faking it?
00:19:34You think I wanted to injure my arm?
00:19:36All for you to yell at me and call me a liar?
00:19:39Do you think I have that little self-respect?
00:19:42Elena, does it... does it hurt?
00:19:44Oh, gosh, I'm so sorry, Elena.
00:19:47I was just having a really bad day
00:19:50because someone ruined the special evening gown Mark got me.
00:19:54But I still shouldn't have bumped into you on accident like that.
00:19:59So you admit that it actually wasn't my fault?
00:20:02You admit that you've been lying this whole time?
00:20:07What?
00:20:07No!
00:20:08That's not what I meant at all!
00:20:11Oh, my God, do you really think I'm that kind of person?
00:20:14Victoria didn't mean it, all right?
00:20:17She's always been such a sweet girl.
00:20:19She'd never hurt anyone on purpose.
00:20:21Here, why don't you say you're sorry and tell her happy birthday
00:20:25so we can all put this behind us.
00:20:27Listen to your mother, Elena.
00:20:33You know, this isn't the first time
00:20:35Victoria's tried to frame me for something.
00:20:37Although I'm sure you're well aware of that, Mrs. Blaine.
00:20:42Well, I...
00:20:48You still owe us an explanation.
00:20:51For fucking what?
00:20:56Oh, I see what this is.
00:20:59You want me to apologize for ruining Victoria's dress?
00:21:02You were the only other person in my car.
00:21:05You were the only one who could have touched that dress.
00:21:09Elena!
00:21:09I can't believe you sabotaged me at my own birthday party!
00:21:14Why are you such a bully?
00:21:16I know you're upset, Elena,
00:21:18but you can't just destroy your sister's things!
00:21:20I'll let it slide this time,
00:21:22but there better not be a next time.
00:21:24Really, guys?
00:21:25Look, Mark has a dash cam.
00:21:27Check for yourself and you'll see I didn't touch a thing.
00:21:34Mark, pull the footage up on your phone right now.
00:21:38I'm done taking the fall for Victoria.
00:21:41Oh, actually, don't bother.
00:21:43We wouldn't want Elena to look bad in front of everyone, right?
00:21:48Elena, just let it go.
00:21:49Enough!
00:21:50We're done discussing this!
00:21:52Elena, you've made enough of a scene as it is.
00:21:54Now go clean up your arm.
00:21:55No.
00:21:57You just want me to leave so you can keep pretending she's your perfect little princess.
00:22:01I have no problem checking the dash cam footage.
00:22:08It's only you guys who are afraid to watch it.
00:22:11What are you so scared of?
00:22:14Fine.
00:22:15I'll answer that question for you.
00:22:18It's because you know I didn't do anything to the dress.
00:22:24It was sitting untouched in the box when Mark brought it into the house.
00:22:33And then after that, it just magically gets ripped as soon as it's passed to Victoria.
00:22:39I think you all catch my drift here.
00:22:42The only problem is, you're scared to check the tapes.
00:22:47Because you know full well Victoria ripped her own dress.
00:22:50You just want me to be her scapegoat!
00:22:53Again!
00:22:55Isn't that right, Victoria?
00:22:58Elena, please.
00:22:59I would never do such a thing.
00:23:03You and Victoria, you're my two beloved daughters.
00:23:09I can't bear to see either of you have to suffer!
00:23:12God, just stop already!
00:23:14I might have bought that pathetic excuse if this was three years ago.
00:23:19But after what you put me through at the reform school,
00:23:22hearing you lie to my face like that makes me sick!
00:23:28Alright, I'll give you what you want.
00:23:31As of tonight, I'm giving up the Blair name.
00:23:35I relinquish all rights that come along with my heritage.
00:23:38I'm done playing these stupid games.
00:23:40I'm done being part of your family.
00:23:50No.
00:23:51Have I been wrong?
00:23:54About her all along?
00:24:02I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:03I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:06I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:12I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:13I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:16I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:20I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:20I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:21I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:21I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:21I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:23I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:26I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:28I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:30I'm done being part of your family.
00:24:31and guide a sinner like you back into his fold.
00:24:34They're here now to take you home.
00:24:36I trust you'll stay quiet about what happened here.
00:24:39The Lord sees and hears everything.
00:24:53Three years at a convent, and you still haven't fixed that attitude.
00:24:57Come on, let's go. We're going home.
00:25:03What happened? She used to be my shadow.
00:25:12Mark, you're back! How was work?
00:25:14Mom said you've been swamped. Here, let me help.
00:25:21You mad at me or something?
00:25:23I skipped an international conference to come pick you up in person.
00:25:26Come on, Mom and Dad are waiting.
00:25:28They put together this whole thing to welcome you home.
00:25:30Mom and Dad are dead to me.
00:25:32What are you talking about? You're my sister. You're a Blair.
00:25:35No. You guys only ever cared about Victoria.
00:25:38The girl you adopted to replace me.
00:25:41I'm just some stupid girl from the orphanage that no one wanted!
00:25:47Are you done?
00:25:48Okay, cut it out. Quit whining.
00:25:50Three years ago, you laced Grace Klein's drink at the pool party.
00:25:53You made her OD on Oxy, and she's still in a coma.
00:25:56We did everything we could to keep you out of jail.
00:25:58You had it easy, do you understand?
00:26:00Fuck, I thought the nuns would have shaped you up.
00:26:02You think this is over just because you got out?
00:26:04Every day Grace spends at the hospital is another day where you should be atoning for your sins.
00:26:09Grace? Grace? Grace?
00:26:13Grace?
00:26:24You stink!
00:26:26You put Oxycon in Grace's drink? How much did you give her? Are you trying to kill her?
00:26:30It wasn't me, Dad. It was Victoria!
00:26:34Shut up, you liar! I wish you were never born!
00:26:41I should have realized. My parents never loved me. I should have never left that orphanage.
00:26:47Time to go home, Elena. Don't make me say it again.
00:26:50I'm never going back there.
00:26:52Have a good life, Mr. Blavin. I hope we never see each other again.
00:27:02I hope we never see each other again.
00:27:06Elena! Sorry I'm late.
00:27:11Happy release day, Elena.
00:27:13Eric Gills. He grew up in the same orphanage I did and he was my best friend and the person
00:27:17I trusted the most in the world.
00:27:20Oh, Miss Elena, I promise I'll get into the same school you do, so I can always protect you as
00:27:25your knight in shining armor.
00:27:28But he stabbed me in the back when I needed him most.
00:27:31He put me in hell with his own two hands.
00:27:41Eric, please! You saw Victoria lacing Grace's drink. Please just tell them the truth!
00:27:52I can't, Elena. Victoria grew up in wealth.
00:27:55She wouldn't last a day at the reform school.
00:27:57Just go in her place, alright?
00:28:00Okay.
00:28:06Eric ruined my life so he could get with Victoria.
00:28:09With her influence, he got scouted by a Big Ten school and now he's the next best thing in football.
00:28:13Look, I even got flowers for you.
00:28:19No thanks, Giles.
00:28:23If there's one thing I learned at reform school...
00:28:29Now bark like a dog or we'll cane you.
00:28:41It's that you have to make yourself as small of a target as possible.
00:28:45That's the only way to survive when you have no one in your corner.
00:28:48The Blairs hate me, but at least they say it to my face.
00:28:52I'd rather know what I'm getting into than to have Eric pull the rug from out under me again.
00:29:04I changed my mind. Let's go.
00:29:08Elena!
00:29:19Mom and Dad have been worried sick over you the past three years.
00:29:22Be nice when you get back, okay?
00:29:26I want you to watch your temper and stop bullying Victoria.
00:29:31Don't make our life harder than it already is.
00:29:33Keep your head down and we won't treat you any different.
00:29:39Elena, are you even listening? I'm talking to you.
00:29:41I spent three years at that fucking reform school and they didn't come visit me on once.
00:29:46Thanksgiving, Christmas, spring break, nothing.
00:29:48It's only 30 miles out. They couldn't take two hours out of their day to see their own daughter?
00:29:52You still think they give a shit about me?
00:29:53It's because you keep acting like a child.
00:29:56They decided not to visit so you can have a chance to heal, to become a better person.
00:30:01Everything they did was for your own good, Elena.
00:30:22Hurry up and change into something presentable. I'll see you at the banquet hall.
00:30:28Oh, that's for Victoria.
00:30:42Home, sweet home.
00:30:46This is where the Blairs had me live for threes before they sent me to the convent.
00:30:54Change into something presentable.
00:30:56As if I have anything nice to wear.
00:30:59Even the clothes I'm wearing I bought with my own money.
00:31:02Mom! Dad! Look what I bought!
00:31:05Elena! What on earth are you wearing?
00:31:08You're a blave now! You can't go out looking like this!
00:31:11Learn how to dress yourself properly, like Victoria.
00:31:13Now take that off and throw it out!
00:31:17I might be their bio daughter, but they never cared about me.
00:31:21They only ever cared about Victoria.
00:31:23Even though she's adopted, she's their real pride and joy.
00:31:27I'm just some shameful secret they managed to snatch back from the orphanage.
00:31:31They even made me the scapegoat for Victoria's crime.
00:31:35I wish you were never born!
00:31:36It wasn't me, Dad! It was Victoria!
00:31:41They sent me to that hellhole of a reform school to be tortured for the last three years.
00:31:47This is what I was wearing when they brought me here.
00:31:50So this is what I'm wearing to leave them for good.
00:31:56Congratulations. It's a big day for the Blairs.
00:32:00Ain't that the truth?
00:32:06Well, where's our special girl?
00:32:08She'll be out in just a minute.
00:32:13Who is that girl?
00:32:14Why is she wearing a dirty school uniform?
00:32:18Three years ago, my family had me dragged away like a criminal junkie in front of all the elites of
00:32:23New York.
00:32:26And now, their idea of a warm welcome is to air out all my dirty laundry for all their party
00:32:30guests to see.
00:32:32Because who cares about preserving my privacy or my dignity?
00:32:38What are you wearing?
00:32:39I thought I told you to put on something nice.
00:32:41You've been giving me attitude ever since I picked you up.
00:32:44Now you're trying to throw yourself a pity party by wearing those rags and making us look bad?
00:32:48Heck, it looks like we've been mistreating you.
00:32:52Elena Blather.
00:32:53You haven't changed at all.
00:32:55You're still a petty, stuck-up, impulsive child.
00:32:58You're not coming back until you change.
00:33:00Come on, stop being such an embarrassment.
00:33:03You damn run away!
00:33:05I don't have a dress.
00:33:06Then why didn't you buy one?
00:33:08Because I don't have any money!
00:33:10Elena, when you were at home, we wired you 10k a month for three whole years.
00:33:15That's $360,000.
00:33:17Was that really not enough for a dress and some decent-looking clothes?
00:33:20You're dressing like a ho-ho to make us look like we're abusing you?
00:33:23Look, enough's enough.
00:33:25We've more than made it up to you.
00:33:27Don't bite the hand that feeds.
00:33:2810k?
00:33:29I never even got as much as $10 from you.
00:33:31If you're gonna yell at me for something I didn't do, at least come up with something believable!
00:33:35That's it.
00:33:35If you won't stop making shit up, don't blame me for exposing you.
00:33:41Eva, I want you to check just exactly how much money we've sent to Elena over the years.
00:33:45Elena?
00:33:46Blabel?
00:33:47Yes.
00:33:48If it's Elena, there's no point in checking.
00:33:50What do you mean?
00:33:51Mr. Blase.
00:33:53The estate's never given Elena anything.
00:33:55What did you say?
00:33:58Wait, what?
00:33:59But I specifically told them to-
00:34:00Mrs. Blainer cancelled the payments.
00:34:03She was scared Elena might have picked up nasty habits, growing up in an orphanage with
00:34:07God knows who.
00:34:09She didn't trust Elena with 10k a month, so...
00:34:12She cancelled her allowance.
00:34:14The extra money went to Victoria.
00:34:16Mrs. Blainer was worried Victoria would feel left out after Elena came back, so her allowance
00:34:22was up to 20k a month to compensate.
00:34:25Mr. Blainer, please tell me you knew about this.
00:34:29Really?
00:34:31You're a billionaire, and your daughter doesn't get any spending money?
00:34:36Fine.
00:34:37Maybe you didn't get anything from the estate, but Mom and Dad would have given you something!
00:34:43The Blairs never gave me a single cent.
00:34:47Go ahead and ask them if you don't believe me.
00:34:50They're your parents.
00:34:51Surely you'll trust their word over mine.
00:34:55Mom?
00:34:56Dad?
00:34:57How much were you giving her?
00:34:59Well, I thought she was getting money from you.
00:35:04So, I never-
00:35:05Me too!
00:35:06I thought the estate-
00:35:10Elena, why didn't you say anything?
00:35:12You should have told us you didn't get any money.
00:35:15Mommy would have given you anything if you just asked.
00:35:17Yeah!
00:35:18It's all my fault.
00:35:19I couldn't even tell you were struggling.
00:35:21But Elena, Mommy loves you just as much as she loves Victoria, okay?
00:35:26You're my mom, but you still gave away what was supposed to be mine to Victoria!
00:35:31You gave your adoptive daughter $20,000 all because you felt mad for her?
00:35:36Are you that scared of hurting her precious feelings?
00:35:39No, honey, I-
00:35:40You have a mouth and a brain.
00:35:43You could have just asked.
00:35:45Mom's right.
00:35:45You should have said something.
00:35:47We have billions.
00:35:49They're not so heartless they wouldn't give you a bit of cash if you needed it.
00:35:53I did tell you!
00:35:54But you didn't care enough to listen!
00:36:01Mom, Dad, can I have $300?
00:36:07It's for school.
00:36:08Money.
00:36:09It's always money with you.
00:36:11You wouldn't even have come home if we were poor, would you?
00:36:14Seriously.
00:36:14Honestly, sometimes I wonder why Mom and Dad even brought you back.
00:36:18Look at Victoria.
00:36:19She never asks us for money.
00:36:21And she just took the AMCs and placed 10th in the state.
00:36:24Why can't you be like her?
00:36:25Yeah, sure you did.
00:36:27What?
00:36:27I really did!
00:36:28I got first!
00:36:29Mark!
00:36:30You promised you'd get me something if I made it to the AMC?
00:36:34Well, what do you want?
00:36:36Um, there's this bag I've been looking at.
00:36:38But it's $10,000.
00:36:40What if you got it for me?
00:36:42As a treat?
00:36:43All right.
00:36:44I'll get it for you.
00:36:45As long as it makes my baby sister happy.
00:36:47It could be $100,000 for all I care.
00:36:50What are you still standing around for?
00:36:52Go to your room and think about what you did.
00:36:53You'll never be like Victoria!
00:36:57That girl's out of control.
00:36:59If only she had half the manners Victoria did.
00:37:06Yeah.
00:37:08Remember that?
00:37:11That's because you never did anything we could be proud of you for!
00:37:16And you're still a liar!
00:37:18I never lied about anything.
00:37:21I got first place in the AMCs.
00:37:23You just didn't want to believe me.
00:37:28Whatever.
00:37:31You didn't even know what school I went to.
00:37:33Why would you care if I won a math competition?
00:37:40Wait.
00:37:41Were you not at St. Augustine's with Victoria?
00:37:47Dad.
00:37:48I thought she went to St. Augustine's.
00:37:52Elena, what high school did you go to?
00:37:57I got first at the AMCs, so I got a full ride into Oak Ridge Valley Academy.
00:38:02Oak Ridge Valley?
00:38:03That's the best high school on the East Coast.
00:38:05They produce some of the top minds in our nation.
00:38:07Not like St. Augustine's, where just having cash gets you through the door.
00:38:11Every kid that goes to Oak Ridge Valley is handpicked through a rigorous interview process.
00:38:14For Elena to get a full run scholarship, she has to be a generational talent.
00:38:19No.
00:38:20No way.
00:38:21Oak Ridge Valley's 20 miles away.
00:38:22There's no way you made it to school every day riding on that crappy bike.
00:38:26Yeah.
00:38:27Me and Victoria were never at the same school.
00:38:30Ever wondered why I never ate breakfast with you guys?
00:38:32It's because I had to wake up at 5 every day so I can get to school by 7.
00:38:36And I never got any lunch money.
00:38:38So I had to make do with expired moldy bread.
00:38:42And then when I got home, you'd be done with dinner already.
00:38:45All I ever had was cold leftovers.
00:38:47And you would still call me a dirty hobo digging through the trash, scarfing down the food.
00:38:51Because I was so hungry by that point, I didn't even care anymore.
00:38:55Oh, Elena, I'm so sorry you had to live like that.
00:38:58I just never realized you were suffering.
00:39:01Save it.
00:39:02Look, you weren't around to see me grow up.
00:39:04It makes sense you wouldn't care about me at all.
00:39:07Whatever.
00:39:08I'm used to it.
00:39:10Can't break a kid who grew up in the system, right, Mrs. Blair?
00:39:15Mom, please!
00:39:16Just watch the security footage.
00:39:18I didn't do it.
00:39:19Victoria's the one that lays Grace's drink.
00:39:36Mom, did you just delete the security tape?
00:39:39Why would you do that?
00:39:42Are you seriously protecting Victoria over me right now?
00:39:46I'm your bio daughter!
00:39:49Elena, I'm so sorry, but I can't let them take Victoria.
00:39:52She's not cut out for that.
00:39:54But you grew up in this system, and you were fine.
00:39:57I know you won't break at the reform school either, so just go with the nuns and take Victoria's place,
00:40:00okay, honey?
00:40:08Shut up!
00:40:09What are you even saying, Elena?
00:40:11Oh, right.
00:40:12They never told you.
00:40:13The security camera caught everything!
00:40:17Victoria was the one that laced Grace's drink!
00:40:19But our poor, pathetic excuse of a mother decided to wipe the tapes to protect Victoria over me, even though
00:40:26I'm her bio daughter.
00:40:26She made me look like a guilty criminal in front of everyone!
00:40:31What?
00:40:37Stop lying.
00:40:38I know you're upset at us for ignoring you, but if you had a problem with us, it's your responsibility
00:40:42to say something.
00:40:44You're just jealous that Victoria had a better life than you did.
00:40:48That's why you've been bullying her and trying to pin all the blame on her.
00:40:51Did you stop and think for one second what's the right thing to do?
00:40:54No!
00:40:54You just kept on taking it out on us!
00:40:56You're the worst person I've ever met.
00:40:58Mark, don't say that about your sister.
00:41:00Mom, stop cuddling her.
00:41:02She needs to grow up.
00:41:03The only reason she's like this is because we kept caving into her tantrums.
00:41:06We tried so hard to get her into a reform school instead of prison, and how does she repays us?
00:41:11She comes back and ruins our party and makes it look like we're the bad guys!
00:41:16All right, stop it!
00:41:17Both of you!
00:41:18Elena, you should have told us you'd already gone home.
00:41:21Mommy and I would have gone out and got you a nice dress or something.
00:41:24Wait, you didn't know I had already gone home?
00:41:29Of course not, honey.
00:41:30I would have had the chauffeurs pick you up.
00:41:32Wait, how did you even get here?
00:41:35Mark picked me up.
00:41:36He said this was a welcome home party.
00:41:41Wait, I thought this was a birthday party for Victoria.
00:41:45That's what it said on the RSVP, Victoria Blair's 18th birthday.
00:41:49Since when was this for Elena?
00:41:51If it's Elena, then I'm leaving!
00:41:53She tried to kill the Klein kid three years ago.
00:41:56Poor girl's still in a coma.
00:41:57I don't want anything to do with that homicidal maniac.
00:42:01Ever since I started living with the Blairs, it's been one disappointment after another.
00:42:06No, Elena, please!
00:42:07You can't just abandon us!
00:42:18Victoria!
00:42:19Oh my God, Victoria!
00:42:24Victoria, are you okay?
00:42:26It's so bad, Mom.
00:42:27Ow.
00:42:27Oh, do you have a boo-boo?
00:42:29Let me see.
00:42:34Did Elena push you?
00:42:35I bet she shrubbed you!
00:42:38No.
00:42:39I'm okay.
00:42:40Are you fucking blind?
00:42:41Really?
00:42:42You're just going to start running your mouth over nothing?
00:42:45She bumped into me on purpose.
00:42:48If anyone's blind, it's you!
00:42:50You!
00:43:04You want to know the truth?
00:43:06Ask literally anyone else.
00:43:12They all saw her bump into me.
00:43:15Yeah, uh, Mark, Victoria shoulder-checked her.
00:43:19Pretty obvious.
00:43:20It was pretty obvious.
00:43:22Fine.
00:43:23Even if Victoria bumped into you, it was probably an accident!
00:43:26Why didn't you move?
00:43:27You didn't have to come crashing down!
00:43:29You did that on purpose!
00:43:31You think I'm faking it?
00:43:41You think I wanted to injure my arm?
00:43:43All for you to yell at me and call me a liar?
00:43:46Do you think I have that little self-respect?
00:43:49Elena, does it...
00:43:49Does it hurt?
00:43:51Oh, gosh.
00:43:52I'm so sorry, Elena.
00:43:54I was just having a really bad day
00:43:57because someone ruined the special evening gown Mark got me.
00:44:01But I still shouldn't have bumped into you on accident like that.
00:44:06So you would admit that it actually wasn't my fault?
00:44:09You admit that you've been lying this whole time.
00:44:14What?
00:44:14No!
00:44:15That's not what I meant at all!
00:44:18Oh, my God!
00:44:18Do you really think I'm that kind of person?
00:44:21Victoria didn't mean it, all right?
00:44:24She's always been such a sweet girl.
00:44:26She'd never hurt anyone on purpose.
00:44:28Here, why don't you say you're sorry
00:44:30and tell her happy birthday
00:44:32so we can all put this behind us.
00:44:34Listen to your mother, Elena.
00:44:40You know, this isn't the first time
00:44:41Victoria's tried to frame me for something.
00:44:44Although I'm sure you're well aware of that, Mrs. Blaine.
00:44:49Well, I...
00:44:55You still owe us an explanation.
00:44:58For fucking what?
00:45:03Oh, I see what this is.
00:45:06You want me to apologize for ruining Victoria's dress?
00:45:09You were the only other person in my car.
00:45:12You were the only one who could have touched that dress.
00:45:16Elena!
00:45:16I can't believe you sabotaged me at my own birthday party!
00:45:21Why are you such a bully?
00:45:23I know you're upset, Elena,
00:45:25but you can't just destroy your sister's things.
00:45:27I'll let it slide this time,
00:45:29but there better not be a next time.
00:45:31Really, guys?
00:45:32Look, Mark has a dash cam.
00:45:34Check for yourself and you'll see I didn't touch a thing.
00:45:41Mark, pull the footage up on your phone right now.
00:45:45I'm done taking the fall for Victoria.
00:45:48Oh, actually, don't bother.
00:45:50We wouldn't want Elena to look bad in front of everyone, right?
00:45:55Elena, just let it go.
00:45:56Enough!
00:45:56We're done discussing this.
00:45:59Elena, you've made enough of a scene as it is.
00:46:01Now go clean up your arm.
00:46:02No.
00:46:04You just want me to leave
00:46:05so you can keep pretending she's your perfect little princess.
00:46:08I have no problem checking the dash cam footage.
00:46:15It's only you guys who are afraid to watch it.
00:46:18What are you so scared of?
00:46:21Fine.
00:46:22I'll answer that question for you.
00:46:25It's because you know I didn't do anything to the dress.
00:46:31It was sitting untouched in the box when Mark brought it into the house.
00:46:40And then after that, it just magically gets ripped as soon as it's passed to Victoria.
00:46:46I think you all catch my drift here.
00:46:49The only problem is you're scared to check the tapes.
00:46:54Because you know full well Victoria ripped her own dress.
00:46:57You just want me to be her scapegoat.
00:47:00Again.
00:47:02Isn't that right, Victoria?
00:47:05Elena, please.
00:47:06I would never do such a thing.
00:47:10You and Victoria.
00:47:12You're my two beloved daughters.
00:47:16I can't bear to see either of you have to suffer.
00:47:19God, just stop already.
00:47:21I might have bought that pathetic excuse if this was three years ago.
00:47:26But after what you put me through at the reform school,
00:47:29hearing you lie to my face like that makes me sick.
00:47:35All right, I'll give you what you want.
00:47:38As of tonight, I'm giving up the Blair name.
00:47:42I relinquish all rights that come along with my heritage.
00:47:45I'm done playing these stupid games.
00:47:47I'm done being part of your family.
00:47:57No.
00:47:58Have I been wrong about her all along?
00:48:02I see.
00:48:10I see.
00:48:19No.
00:48:22No.
00:48:26No.
00:48:33Elena, darling, your family entrusted you to us so we could show you the Lord's compassion
00:48:38and guide a sinner like you back into his fold.
00:48:41They're here now to take you home.
00:48:43I trust you'll stay quiet about what happened here.
00:48:46The Lord sees and hears everything.
00:49:00Three years at a convent, and you still haven't fixed that attitude.
00:49:04Come on, let's go. We're going home.
00:49:10What happened? She used to be my shadow.
00:49:19Mark, you're back! How was work?
00:49:21Mom said you'd been swamped. Here, let me help.
00:49:28You mad at me or something?
00:49:30I skipped an international conference to come pick you up in person.
00:49:33Come on. Mom and Dad are waiting.
00:49:35They put together this whole thing to welcome you home.
00:49:37Mom and Dad are dead to me.
00:49:39What are you talking about? You're my sister. You're a Blair.
00:49:42No. You guys only ever cared about Victoria, the girl you adopted to replace me.
00:49:48I'm just some stupid girl from the orphanage that no one wanted!
00:49:54Are you done?
00:49:55Okay, cut it out. Quit whining.
00:49:57Three years ago, you laced Grace Klein's drink at the pool party.
00:50:00You made her OD on Oxy, and she's still in a coma.
00:50:03We did everything we could to keep you out of jail.
00:50:05You had it easy, do you understand?
00:50:07Fuck, I thought the nuns would have shaped you up.
00:50:09You think this is over just because you got out?
00:50:11Every day Grace spends at the hospital is another day where you should be atoning for your sins!
00:50:17Grace?
00:50:18Grace?
00:50:19Grace!
00:50:20Grace!
00:50:20Grace!
00:50:23Grace!
00:50:25Grace!
00:50:26Grace!
00:50:28Grace!
00:50:30Grace!
00:50:32You stink!
00:50:33You put Oxycon in Grace's drink? How much did you give her? Are you trying to kill her?
00:50:37It wasn't me, Dad! It was Victoria!
00:50:41Shut up, you liar! I wish you were never born!
00:50:48I should have realized. My parents never loved me. I should have never left that orphanage.
00:50:54Time to go home, Elena. Don't make me say it again.
00:50:57I'm never going back there. Have a good life, Mr. Blavin. I hope we never see each other again.
00:51:09I hope we never see each other again.
00:51:13Elena! Sorry I'm late.
00:51:18Happy release day, Elena.
00:51:20Eric Gills. He grew up in the same orphanage I did and he was my best friend and the person
00:51:24I trusted the most in the world.
00:51:27Oh, Miss Elena, I promise I'll get into the same school you do, so I can always protect you as
00:51:32your knight in shining armor.
00:51:35But he stabbed me in the back when I needed him most. He put me in hell with his own
00:51:39two hands.
00:51:48Eric!
00:51:52Eric, please! You saw Victoria lacing Grace's drink. Please just tell them the truth!
00:51:59I can't, Elena. Victoria grew up in wealth. She wouldn't last a day at the reform school. Just go in
00:52:05her place, alright?
00:52:13Eric ruined my life so he could get with Victoria. With her influence, he got scouted by a Big Ten
00:52:18school and now he's the next best thing in football.
00:52:20Look, I even got flowers for you.
00:52:26No thanks, Giles.
00:52:30If there's one thing I learned at reform school...
00:52:48It's that you have to make yourself as small of a target as possible.
00:52:52That's the only way to survive when you have no one in your corner.
00:52:55The Blairs hate me, but at least they say it to my face.
00:52:59I'd rather know what I'm getting into than to have Eric pull the rug from out under me again.
00:53:11I changed my mind. Let's go.
00:53:15Elena!
00:53:26Mom and Dad have been worried sick over you the past three years.
00:53:29Be nice when you get back, okay?
00:53:33I want you to watch your temper and stop bullying Victoria.
00:53:38Don't make our life harder than it already is.
00:53:40Keep your head down and we won't treat you any different.
00:53:46Elena, are you even listening? I'm talking to you.
00:53:48I spent three years at that fucking reform school and they didn't come visit me on once.
00:53:53Thanksgiving, Christmas, spring break, nothing.
00:53:55It's only 30 miles out. They couldn't take two hours out of their day to see their own daughter?
00:53:59You still think they give a shit about me?
00:54:00It's because you keep acting like a child.
00:54:03They decided not to visit so you can have a chance to heal, to become a better person.
00:54:08Everything they did was for your own good, Elena.
00:54:29Hurry up and change into something presentable. I'll see you at the banquet hall.
00:54:35Oh, that's for Victoria.
00:54:37Victoria.
00:54:49Home, sweet home.
00:54:53This is where the Blairs had me live for threes before they sent me to the convent.
00:55:01Change into something presentable.
00:55:03As if I have anything nice to wear. Even the clothes I'm wearing I bought with my own money.
00:55:09Mom! Dad! Look what I bought!
00:55:12Elena, what on earth are you wearing?
00:55:15You're a blave now! You can't go out looking like this!
00:55:18Learn how to dress yourself properly, like Victoria. Now take that off and throw it out!
00:55:24I might be their bio daughter, but they never cared about me.
00:55:28They only ever cared about Victoria.
00:55:30Even though she's adopted, she's their real pride and joy.
00:55:34I'm just some shameful secret they managed to snatch back from the orphanage.
00:55:38They even made me the scapegoat for Victoria's crime!
00:55:42I wish you were never born!
00:55:43It wasn't me, Dad! It was Victoria!
00:55:48They sent me to that hellhole of a reform school to be tortured for the last three years.
00:55:54This is what I was wearing when they brought me here.
00:55:57So this is what I'm wearing to leave them for good.
00:56:04Congratulations. It's a big day for the Blairs.
00:56:07Ain't that the truth?
00:56:13Well, where's our special girl?
00:56:15She'll be out in just a minute.
00:56:19Who is that girl?
00:56:21Why is she wearing a dirty school uniform?
00:56:25Three years ago, my family had me dragged away like a criminal junkie in front of all the elites of
00:56:30New York.
00:56:32And now, their idea of a warm welcome is to air out all my dirty laundry for all their party
00:56:37guests to see.
00:56:39Because who cares about preserving my privacy or my dignity?
00:56:45What are you wearing?
00:56:46I thought I told you to put on something nice.
00:56:49You've been giving me attitude ever since I picked you up.
00:56:51Now you're trying to throw yourself a pity party by wearing those rags and making us look bad?
00:56:55Heck, it looks like we've been mistreating you.
00:56:59Elena Blather.
00:57:00You haven't changed at all.
00:57:02You're still a petty, stuck-up, impulsive child.
00:57:05You're not coming back until you change.
00:57:06Come on, stop being such an embarrassment.
00:57:10You damn run away!
00:57:12I don't have a dress.
00:57:14Then why didn't you buy one?
00:57:15Because I don't have any money!
00:57:17Elena, when you were at home, we wired you 10k a month for three whole years.
00:57:22That's $360,000.
00:57:24Was that really not enough for a dress and some decent-looking clothes?
00:57:27You're dressing like a ho-o to make us look like we're abusing you?
00:57:31Look, enough's enough.
00:57:32We've more than made it up to you.
00:57:34Don't bite the hand that feeds.
00:57:3510k?
00:57:36I never even got as much as $10 from you.
00:57:38If you're going to yell at me for something I didn't do, at least come up with something believable!
00:57:42That's it.
00:57:42If you won't stop making shit up, don't blame me for exposing you.
00:57:48Eva, I want you to check just exactly how much money we've sent to Elena over the years.
00:57:52Elena?
00:57:53Blabel?
00:57:54Yes.
00:57:55If it's Elena, there's no point in checking.
00:57:57What do you mean?
00:57:58Mr. Blase.
00:57:59The estate's never given Elena anything.
00:58:02What did you say?
00:58:04Wait, what?
00:58:06But I specifically told them to-
00:58:07Mrs. Blainer cancelled the payments.
00:58:10She was scared Elena might have picked up nasty habits, growing up in an orphanage with God knows who.
00:58:16She didn't trust Elena with 10k a month, so...
00:58:19She cancelled her allowance.
00:58:21The extra money went to Victoria.
00:58:23Mrs. Blainer was worried Victoria would feel left out after Elena came back,
00:58:28so her allowance was up to 20k a month to compensate.
00:58:32Mr. Blainer, please tell me you knew about this.
00:58:36Really?
00:58:38You're a billionaire, and your daughter doesn't get any spending money?
00:58:43Fine.
00:58:44Maybe you didn't get anything from the estate, but Mom and Dad would have given you something!
00:58:50The Blairs never gave me a single cent.
00:58:54Go ahead and ask them if you don't believe me.
00:58:57They're your parents.
00:58:58Surely you'll trust their word over mine.
00:59:02Mom?
00:59:03Dad?
00:59:04How much were you giving her?
00:59:06Well, I thought she was getting money from you.
00:59:11So, I never-
00:59:12Me too!
00:59:13I thought the estate-
00:59:17Elena, why didn't you say anything?
00:59:19You should have told us you didn't get any money.
00:59:22Mommy would have given you anything if you just asked.
00:59:24Yeah!
00:59:25It's all my fault.
00:59:26I couldn't even tell you were struggling.
00:59:28But Elena, Mommy loves you just as much as she loves Victoria, okay?
00:59:33You're my mom, but you still gave away what was supposed to be mine to Victoria!
00:59:38You gave your adoptive daughter $20,000 all because you felt mad for her?
00:59:43Are you that scared of hurting her precious feelings?
00:59:46No, honey, I-
00:59:47You have a mouth and a brain.
00:59:50You could have just asked.
00:59:52Mom's right.
00:59:52You should have said something.
00:59:54We have billions.
00:59:56They're not so heartless they wouldn't give you a bit of cash if you needed it.
01:00:00I did tell you!
01:00:01But you didn't care enough to listen!
01:00:08Mom, Dad, can I have $300?
01:00:14It's for school.
01:00:15Money.
01:00:16It's always money with you.
01:00:18You wouldn't even have come home if we were poor, would you?
01:00:21Seriously, sometimes I wonder why Mom and Dad even brought you back.
01:00:24Look at Victoria.
01:00:26She never asks us for money.
01:00:27And she just took the AMCs and placed 10th in the state.
01:00:30Why can't you be like her?
01:00:32Yeah, sure you did.
01:00:34What?
01:00:34I really did!
01:00:35I got first!
01:00:36Mark!
01:00:37You promised you'd get me something if I made it to the AMC?
01:00:41Well, what do you want?
01:00:43Um, there's this bag I've been looking at.
01:00:45But it's $10,000.
01:00:47What if you got it for me?
01:00:49As a treat?
01:00:50All right.
01:00:51I'll get it for you.
01:00:52As long as it makes my baby sister happy, it could be $100,000 for all I care.
01:00:57What are you still standing around for?
01:00:59Go to your room and think about what you did.
01:01:00You'll never be like Victoria!
01:01:04That girl's out of control.
01:01:06If only she had half the manners Victoria did.
01:01:13Yeah.
01:01:15Remember that?
01:01:18That's because you never did anything we could be proud of you for!
01:01:23And you're still a liar!
01:01:25I never lied about anything.
01:01:28I got first place in the AMCs.
01:01:30You just didn't want to believe me.
01:01:35Whatever.
01:01:38You didn't even know what school I went to.
01:01:40Why would you care if I won a math competition?
01:01:47Wait.
01:01:48Were you not at St. Augustine's with Victoria?
01:01:54Dad.
01:01:55I thought she went to St. Augustine's.
01:01:58Elena.
01:01:59What high school did you go to?
01:02:04I got first at the AMCs, so I got a full ride into Oak Ridge Valley Academy.
01:02:09Oak Ridge Valley?
01:02:10That's the best high school on the East Coast.
01:02:12They produce some of the top minds in our nation.
01:02:14Not like St. Augustine's, where just having cash gets you through the door.
01:02:18Every kid that goes to Oak Ridge Valley is handpicked through a rigorous interview process.
01:02:21For Elena to get a full-run scholarship, she has to be a generational talent.
01:02:26No.
01:02:27No way.
01:02:28Oak Ridge Valley's 20 miles away.
01:02:29There's no way you made it to school every day riding on that crappy bike.
01:02:33Yeah.
01:02:34Me and Victoria were never at the same school.
01:02:37Ever wondered why I never ate breakfast with you guys?
01:02:39It's because I had to wake up at 5 every day so I can get to school by 7.
01:02:43And I never got any lunch money.
01:02:45So I had to make do with expired moldy bread.
01:02:49And then when I got home, you'd be done with dinner already.
01:02:52All I ever had was cold leftovers.
01:02:54And you would still call me a dirty hobo digging through the trash, scarfing down the food,
01:02:58because I was so hungry by that point I didn't even care anymore!
01:03:02Oh, Elena, I'm so sorry you had to live like that.
01:03:05I just never realized you were suffering!
01:03:08Save it.
01:03:09Look, you weren't around to see me grow up.
01:03:11It makes sense you wouldn't care about me at all.
01:03:14Whatever.
01:03:15I'm used to it.
01:03:17Can't break a kid who grew up in the system, right, Mrs. Blair?
01:03:22Mom, please!
01:03:24Just watch the security footage!
01:03:25I didn't do it!
01:03:26Victoria's the one that lays Grace's drink!
01:03:43Mom, did you just delete the security tape?
01:03:46Why would you do that?
01:03:49Are you seriously protecting Victoria over me right now?
01:03:53I'm your bio daughter!
01:03:56Elena, I'm so sorry, but I can't let them take Victoria.
01:03:59She's not cut out for that.
01:04:01But you grew up in the system, and you were fine.
01:04:03I know you won't break at the reform school either,
01:04:05so just go with the nuns and take Victoria's place, okay, honey?
01:04:15Shut up!
01:04:16What are you even saying, Elena?
01:04:18Oh, right.
01:04:19They never told you.
01:04:21The security camera caught everything!
01:04:24Victoria was the one that laced Grace's drink!
01:04:26But our poor, pathetic excuse of a mother
01:04:29decided to wipe the tapes to protect Victoria over me,
01:04:32even though I'm her bio daughter.
01:04:34She made me look like a guilty criminal in front of everyone!
01:04:36Come on!
01:04:38What?!
01:04:44Stop lying.
01:04:45I know you're upset at us for ignoring you,
01:04:47but if you had a problem with us,
01:04:48it's your responsibility to say something.
01:04:51You're just jealous that Victoria had a better life than you did.
01:04:54That's why you've been bullying her
01:04:56and trying to pin all the blame on her.
01:04:58Did you stop and think for one second
01:04:59what's the right thing to do?
01:05:01No!
01:05:01You just kept on taking it out on us!
01:05:03You're the worst person I've ever met.
01:05:05Mark, don't say that about your sister.
01:05:07Mom, stop cuddling her.
01:05:09She needs to grow up.
01:05:10The only reason she's like this
01:05:11is because we kept caving into her tantrums.
01:05:13We tried so hard to get her into a reform school
01:05:15instead of prison,
01:05:16and how does she repays us?
01:05:18She comes back and ruins our party
01:05:20and makes it look like we're the bad guys!
01:05:23All right, stop it!
01:05:24Both of you!
01:05:25Elena,
01:05:26you should have told us you'd already gone home.
01:05:28Mommy and I would have gone out
01:05:30and got you a nice dress or something.
01:05:31Wait,
01:05:32you didn't know I had already gone home?
01:05:34I know.
01:05:36Of course not, honey!
01:05:37I would have had the chauffeurs pick you up!
01:05:39Wait,
01:05:40how did you even get here?
01:05:42Mark picked me up.
01:05:44He said this was a welcome home party.
01:05:48Wait,
01:05:49I thought this was a birthday party for Victoria.
01:05:52That's what it said on on the RSVP,
01:05:54Victoria Blair's 18th birthday.
01:05:56Since when was this for Elena?
01:05:58If it's Elena,
01:05:59then I'm leaving!
01:06:00She tried to kill the Klein kid three years ago.
01:06:03Poor girl's still in a coma.
01:06:04I don't want anything to do
01:06:05with that homicidal maniac!
01:06:08Ever since I started living with the Blairs,
01:06:10it's been one disappointment after another.
01:06:13No, Elena, please!
01:06:14You can't just abandon us!
01:06:25Victoria!
01:06:26Oh my god, Victoria!
01:06:31Victoria, are you okay?
01:06:33It's so bad, mom.
01:06:34Ow.
01:06:35Aw, do you have a boo-boo?
01:06:36Let me see.
01:06:41Did Elena push you?
01:06:42I bet she shrubbed you!
01:06:45No, I'm okay.
01:06:46Are you fucking blind?
01:06:48Really?
01:06:48You're just gonna start running your mouth over nothing?
01:06:52She bumped into me on purpose!
01:06:55If anyone's blind, it's you!
01:06:57You!
01:06:59You!
01:07:11You wanna know the truth?
01:07:13Ask literally anyone else!
01:07:19They all saw her bump into me!
01:07:22Yeah, uh, Mark,
01:07:25Victoria's shoulder checked her.
01:07:26Pretty obvious.
01:07:27It was pretty obvious.
01:07:29Fine.
01:07:30Even if Victoria bumped into you,
01:07:32it was probably an accident!
01:07:33Why didn't you move?
01:07:34You didn't have to come crashing down!
01:07:36You did that on purpose!
01:07:38You think I'm faking it?
01:07:48You think I wanted to injure my arm?
01:07:50All for you to yell at me and call me a liar?
01:07:53Do you think I have that little self-respect?
01:07:56Elena, does it...
01:07:56Does it hurt?
01:07:58Oh, gosh, I'm so sorry, Elena.
01:08:01I was just having a really bad day
01:08:04because someone ruined the special evening gown Mark got me.
01:08:08But I still shouldn't have bumped into you on accident like that.
01:08:13So you would admit that it actually wasn't my fault?
01:08:16You admit that you've been lying this whole time?
01:08:21What?
01:08:21No!
01:08:22That's not what I meant at all!
01:08:24Oh, my God, do you really think I'm that kind of person?
01:08:28Victoria didn't mean it, all right?
01:08:31She's always been such a sweet girl.
01:08:33She'd never hurt anyone on purpose.
01:08:35Here, why don't you say you're sorry
01:08:37and tell her happy birthday
01:08:39so we can all put this behind us.
01:08:41Listen to your mother, Elena.
01:08:47You know, this isn't the first time
01:08:48Victoria's tried to frame me for something.
01:08:51Although I'm sure you're well aware of that, Mrs. Blaine.
01:08:56Well, I...
01:09:02You still owe us an explanation.
01:09:05For fucking what?
01:09:10Oh, I see what this is.
01:09:13You want me to apologize for ruining Victoria's dress?
01:09:16You were the only other person in my car.
01:09:19You were the only one who could have touched that dress.
01:09:22Elena!
01:09:23I can't believe you sabotaged me at my own birthday party!
01:09:28Why are you such a bully?
01:09:30I know you're upset, Elena,
01:09:32but you can't just destroy your sister's things!
01:09:34I'll let it slide this time,
01:09:36but there better not be a next time.
01:09:38Really, guys?
01:09:39Look, Mark has a dash cam.
01:09:41Check for yourself and you'll see I didn't touch a thing.
01:09:48Mark, pull the footage up on your phone right now.
01:09:52I'm done taking the fall for Victoria.
01:09:55Oh, actually, don't bother.
01:09:57We wouldn't want Elena to look bad in front of everyone, right?
01:10:02Elena, just let it go.
01:10:03Enough!
01:10:04We're done discussing this!
01:10:06Elena, you've made enough of a scene as it is.
01:10:08Now go clean up your arm.
01:10:09No.
01:10:11You just want me to leave so you can keep pretending she's your perfect little princess.
01:10:15I have no problem checking the dash cam footage.
01:10:22It's only you guys who are afraid to watch it.
01:10:24What are you so scared of?
01:10:28Fine.
01:10:29I'll answer that question for you.
01:10:32It's because you know I didn't do anything to the dress.
01:10:38It was sitting untouched in the box when Mark brought it into the house.
01:10:47And then after that, it just magically gets ripped as soon as it's passed to Victoria.
01:10:52Victoria, I think you all catch my drift here.
01:10:56The only problem is you're scared to check the tapes.
01:11:01Because you know full well Victoria ripped her own dress.
01:11:04You just want me to be her scapegoat!
01:11:07Again!
01:11:09Isn't that right, Victoria?
01:11:12Elena, please.
01:11:13I would never do such a thing.
01:11:17You and Victoria, you're my two beloved daughters.
01:11:22I can't bear to see either of you have to suffer!
01:11:26God, just stop already!
01:11:28I might have bought that pathetic excuse if this was three years ago.
01:11:33But after what you put me through at the reform school,
01:11:36hearing you lie to my face like that makes me sick!
01:11:42Alright, I'll give you what you want.
01:11:45As of tonight, I'm giving up the Blair name.
01:11:49I relinquish all rights that come along with my heritage.
01:11:52I'm done playing these stupid games.
01:11:54I'm done being part of your family.
01:12:04No.
01:12:05Have I been wrong?
01:12:07About her all along?
01:12:17I'm done playing these stupid games.
01:12:18All right, let's stand too.
01:12:19What is that?
01:12:20I got it!
01:12:20Bye!
01:12:20Bye!
