00:00:02Soon each of us will go our separate ways, to different cities, different colleges.
00:00:08But the important thing isn't so much where we're going, but what we take with us.
00:00:14Let's show the world that studying at Montclair isn't just a privilege, it's a responsibility.
00:00:21My boyfriend is the hottest and smartest guy in school, and I cannot believe he chose me.
00:00:26And just as bees spread pollen from one flower to another, allowing an entire field to bloom,
00:00:33now's our turn to spread what we've learned at Montclair everywhere we go.
00:00:40I love you, fairy.
00:00:46I feel like I'm getting sick.
00:00:49No, no, no, no.
00:00:51But we use protection.
00:00:53Sarah, listen to me.
00:00:55I've let this little fling go on because I assumed you were just some high school amusement.
00:01:01Oh, and can't have some trashy, low-class girl on his arm if he wants to succeed.
00:01:06What have you got there?
00:01:08Give it to me.
00:01:11Give it to me!
00:01:19You're pregnant.
00:01:21This is between me and Owen.
00:01:24You stupid girl!
00:01:26Owen has a future in D.C. and Congress.
00:01:29People say he could become President of the United States.
00:01:34If people find out he had a child out of wedlock in high school, his career is over before it
00:01:40begins.
00:01:41Is that what you want for Owen?
00:01:44For him to be stuck here with you?
00:01:46To give up his dreams?
00:01:48If you really love Owen, you will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:01:58Understand?
00:02:05Owen, I am so proud of you.
00:02:08After that performance, all the Ivy Leagues will be calling and then Congress.
00:02:12The sky's the limit for you.
00:02:15For us, you mean.
00:02:16Sarah's the reason I won today.
00:02:19You think you've talked to some of your connections about getting her a scholarship too?
00:02:23Mom, you know it's not her fault she can't afford the Ivy Leagues.
00:02:26She's the most brilliant student in the school.
00:02:28I want her with me.
00:02:31You will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:02:36You know I'd do anything for you.
00:02:40Thanks, Mom.
00:02:45I have to do this for Owen's future.
00:02:48Sarah!
00:02:50Sarah, I've got great new...
00:02:52Sarah!
00:02:54What are you doing?
00:02:56Exactly what I told her to.
00:02:58Owen.
00:03:00I'm so sorry.
00:03:03I...
00:03:03Big man.
00:03:04She came on to me, so...
00:03:06You son of a bitch!
00:03:08Look at the Ivy Leagues in Congress.
00:03:09Don't ruin your future over some high school girlfriend.
00:03:13You better get out of here right now.
00:03:15I don't care, I'll break your face.
00:03:21I thought you loved me.
00:03:23We had a future.
00:03:27I don't love you.
00:03:30We don't have a future.
00:03:32We never did.
00:03:35You need to move on with your life.
00:03:41I was gonna propose to you.
00:03:44God, I'm such an idiot.
00:03:49Good job.
00:04:04The campaign officially starts tomorrow.
00:04:06Be ready.
00:04:10What the fuck?
00:04:12My coffee isn't even hot.
00:04:14If I wanted a temperature slop, I would have ordered it.
00:04:17I'm so sorry about that, ma'am.
00:04:18It was hot when I first brought it out, but you were on the phone.
00:04:20How dare you contradict me?
00:04:22The customer is always right.
00:04:24Tony!
00:04:28Straighten out your employees, please.
00:04:31Otherwise, we won't be filming your tomorrow.
00:04:33Filming?
00:04:34Filming what?
00:04:35Filming what?
00:04:35I'm sorry about that, Brittany.
00:04:37I'll straighten her out.
00:04:39You.
00:04:39You're lucky your ass is so nice.
00:04:41Otherwise, I'd fire it a long time ago.
00:04:43Now go clean the toilets.
00:04:44And that coffee is coming out of your tips.
00:04:53Why don't you quit?
00:04:54Unlike me, you're smart.
00:04:56You went to Montclair.
00:04:58You know why I can't.
00:05:00Tom, come grab your lunch.
00:05:03There you go.
00:05:05Okay, do you want to run your speech before you head out?
00:05:08Nah, I'm good, Mom.
00:05:09Of course, you're good.
00:05:10You're the best.
00:05:11Local women, get ready.
00:05:13Mom, turn up the TV.
00:05:14Owen Carter, who left 10 years ago for Washington, D.C.,
00:05:18has returned to his hometown to run for mayor.
00:05:20From young, handsome billionaire to mayor of one of the East Coast's biggest cities.
00:05:26Can Carter pull it off?
00:05:27I can think of some things I'd love Owen Carter to pull off of me.
00:05:30Owen Carter?
00:05:31Wow, no way.
00:05:33Hey.
00:05:35Mom?
00:05:36Mom, what's wrong?
00:05:38Are you okay?
00:05:40Do you know Owen Carter?
00:05:42No.
00:05:43No.
00:05:43He was at Montclair with your mom.
00:05:46I want to be just like him one day.
00:05:48No wonder you have the same jeans.
00:05:51Wait.
00:05:53Jeans as in pants is what she meant.
00:05:55As in, he wears the same jeans and pants as you do.
00:06:00So you are going to be late for your Young Leaders Conference.
00:06:03Remember, if you're late, you already lost the debate.
00:06:06Uh-huh.
00:06:07Goodbye, Mom.
00:06:08I love you.
00:06:09Bye.
00:06:12I'm sorry.
00:06:13It slipped out.
00:06:15But you know you're going to have to tell him.
00:06:17Right?
00:06:18You don't know Owen's mom.
00:06:20He will end his pregnancy.
00:06:22And never speak to him again.
00:06:26As long as I can avoid him while he's on the campaign trail, it'll be fine.
00:06:29Yeah.
00:06:30About that.
00:06:31I just gotta push.
00:06:32He's supposed to be filming some PR thing for his campaign tomorrow.
00:06:36At the cafe.
00:06:39What?
00:06:42What?
00:06:43So, he comes in.
00:06:44You shake hands.
00:06:45Talk about small business.
00:06:46The value of hard work.
00:06:47Blah, blah, blah.
00:06:48That's Owen's PR director.
00:06:50He cannot find out I had his son.
00:06:52I have to avoid him.
00:06:54Showtime.
00:06:55Don't fuck this up, you guys.
00:06:56Yeah.
00:06:57Why is Owen Carter good for this role?
00:06:59Oh, my God.
00:07:00Everyone needs Owen Carter in their life.
00:07:03He's, like, literally perfect.
00:07:05He took the wristband out of my mouth.
00:07:07Oh, my God.
00:07:09He's right.
00:07:10Oh, my God.
00:07:18Oh, my God.
00:07:19He's gonna be our leader.
00:07:21He can start by leading me.
00:07:25Get in line, bitches.
00:07:27I'm going to be Mrs. Mayor.
00:07:29We can already see Owen Carter's passionate fan base
00:07:32as he makes his first stop at the Simple Cafe
00:07:34where he wrote his first speeches.
00:07:40So, we go in, you chat with the business owner, you stick to the questions that I prepared
00:07:44for you because I did my opposition research.
00:07:46Brittany, my whole campaign is about helping small businesses.
00:07:48I think I know what questions to ask.
00:07:51All right.
00:08:10What's wrong?
00:08:11You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:08:13Not a ghost.
00:08:15A fairy.
00:08:26Are you sure you want to do this?
00:08:29Yeah.
00:08:30I want you to be the one first.
00:08:40All right, let's get you out of the sun.
00:08:42Let's go inside.
00:08:52So much for not seeing Owen.
00:08:57Hello, future mayor.
00:08:59What can I get for you?
00:09:00Viennese coffee?
00:09:01A macchiato on soy?
00:09:02How about a cortado with Ethiopian beans?
00:09:05Oh, wow.
00:09:07Guess my secret's out.
00:09:09Just, uh, black drip coffee, please.
00:09:12Oh, he's such a man.
00:09:15Don't let him notice me.
00:09:16Don't let him notice me.
00:09:17Sarah.
00:09:18How's the blend for Mr. Carter?
00:09:26Let's go for a minute.
00:09:28What are you doing?
00:09:36Oh, my God.
00:09:37I'm so sorry.
00:09:38I'm so sorry.
00:09:39Are you okay?
00:09:42I'll live.
00:09:44How are you, Barry?
00:09:48That's gonna burn.
00:09:50Um, luckily, I work all day with boiling hot liquids, so I always carry something all on me.
00:09:57Um.
00:10:10Look at you saving me again.
00:10:13Just like old-time son fairy.
00:10:16What the fuck, Sarah?
00:10:18You spilled coffee on the future mayor?
00:10:20Hey.
00:10:21It's an accident.
00:10:22It's fine.
00:10:22You wanna know about small business?
00:10:24I'm gonna tell you the truth.
00:10:25I can't afford quality girls, so I have to set up a trash like her.
00:10:28Hey, that is not okay.
00:10:30It most definitely isn't.
00:10:32I'm glad you agree.
00:10:33I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.
00:10:36Sarah, you're fired.
00:10:38What?
00:10:39That is not what I meant.
00:10:40You know what?
00:10:42That's okay.
00:10:44I don't wanna work for a horny, misogynistic, shit-breathing asshole anyways.
00:10:48So actually, I quit.
00:10:51Oh, you fucking bitch.
00:10:55Don't you dare lay a hand on her.
00:10:56Okay.
00:10:57I wanna do a photo op in this dump anyway.
00:11:00Let's get out of here.
00:11:01Yeah.
00:11:02Couldn't agree more.
00:11:07You know what?
00:11:08I'll find another job.
00:11:09I'll even work at night if I need to, to pay for Tom's education.
00:11:14Sarah, I'm not gonna let him fire you.
00:11:18I don't need you to fight my battles for me.
00:11:20I have been through enough since high school to learn how to survive on my own,
00:11:23even when things get hard, so.
00:11:25What do you mean?
00:11:26What things?
00:11:29Things.
00:11:30Owen, I'm a grown woman.
00:11:31I've been through things.
00:11:32I know.
00:11:33You should at least let me give you a ride home.
00:11:37I live close enough to walk.
00:11:38It's fine.
00:11:39Uh, in that case, I might need a favor.
00:11:43I'm supposed to be on national TV in an hour, and I am covered in coffee.
00:11:49Any chance I might use your shower?
00:11:52Any chance I might use your shower?
00:12:00Thanks for helping me out.
00:12:01Yeah, I mean, I did spill coffee on you, so I would, yeah.
00:12:05Uh, shower is right there.
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:15Uh, you wouldn't happen to have a men's dress shirt lying around, would you?
00:12:20It belongs to a husband or boyfriend?
00:12:23Uh, no, no boyfriend, no husband, no shirt.
00:12:27Uh, the only thing I have that might fit you are the sweatshirts I sleep in.
00:12:31Um, this is my sweatshirt.
00:12:40You kept it.
00:12:42Oh.
00:12:43Yeah, I mean, not like for any reason, just, yeah, saving money, I guess, but yeah.
00:12:47Ah, well, I'm sure my mom would kill me for doing an interview in this, but, uh, maybe it'll be
00:12:54relatable.
00:12:58So his mother still controls his life.
00:13:03She can't find out that I have Tom.
00:13:06Or that I'm even interacting with Owen at all.
00:13:11So what are you going to do now?
00:13:13For work?
00:13:14Uh, you know, there's bound to be someone who wants to hire an unskilled dropout.
00:13:18Oh, stop it.
00:13:19You were one of the smartest kids in the school.
00:13:21Yeah, well, life happened.
00:13:25And I'm actually glad Tony fired me.
00:13:27He's just, he's one of those people where he doesn't realize that society isn't measured
00:13:32by the people who lead it, but by the people it refuses to leave behind.
00:13:39What was that thing you just said?
00:13:44Uh, what?
00:13:46Society isn't measured by who leads it, but...
00:13:49By who it refuses to leave behind.
00:13:53So?
00:13:53I got a proposal for you.
00:13:57You should come work for me.
00:14:01I need a political advisor.
00:14:04Remember high school?
00:14:05You used to help me strategize for debate team.
00:14:07You, you helped me write up my talking points.
00:14:09You helped me beat Joe Callahan back then.
00:14:11We can beat him again now.
00:14:12You remember all that?
00:14:14I remember everything, Sarah.
00:14:19Sarah, what are you doing?
00:14:26Oh, sorry.
00:14:29Truth is, I'm starting to feel like an imposter.
00:14:34It's only a matter of time before everybody's gonna start seeing it.
00:14:37Owen, you've always been the best.
00:14:38I was the best with you.
00:14:41That was high school.
00:14:42I didn't even go to college.
00:14:44That doesn't matter.
00:14:45I take your instincts over the degrees of all those empty suits around me any day.
00:14:51You know this town better than anyone.
00:14:54You got guts.
00:14:56What I have is responsibilities.
00:14:58I can't just start taking risks now.
00:15:01Sarah, you don't have a job.
00:15:06Right.
00:15:08Just think about it, okay?
00:15:11I won't forget what you were for me, Fari.
00:15:14We can do great things together.
00:15:27Are you crazy?
00:15:29Being Owen's advisor is the perfect job for you.
00:15:32Then bringing me on as the campaign influencer?
00:15:34It's a win-win-win.
00:15:35No, no, it is a bad idea for so many reasons.
00:15:40Name one.
00:15:41One, his evil mom.
00:15:43She's vicious, she's connected, and she thinks I aborted her grandson.
00:15:51Is that Owen?
00:15:53I like the new look.
00:15:55One of my guiding principles is that a society is not measured by who leads it, but by who it
00:15:59refuses to leave behind.
00:16:01Don't tell me.
00:16:02You wrote that.
00:16:04Joe Callahan, your response.
00:16:06Like my opponent's sweatshirt, Owen Carter's not a serious candidate.
00:16:10No, he's a pretty boy poser who left his hometown to become an out-of-touch Washington insider.
00:16:16I still can't believe he's running against that ass Joe Callahan.
00:16:19I mean, he's kind of right, though.
00:16:22Owen needs a miracle.
00:16:23I know how to make him a miracle.
00:16:25Okay.
00:16:27But his mom, I can't.
00:16:29What will she do?
00:16:30Fire you from a job you don't have?
00:16:32You wrote all his speeches with him back in the days.
00:16:35You're smart.
00:16:36Go help him.
00:16:37We don't want Joe as mayor, right?
00:16:44Owen, as your PR consultant, I beg you, do not respond to Joe Callahan.
00:16:49Can't you just jealous that everyone was reporting on how devastatingly handsome you are?
00:16:54Which you are.
00:17:01What the fuck is she doing here?
00:17:06Hey.
00:17:07Hey.
00:17:08Our high school library is your campaign headquarters?
00:17:12Ironic, isn't it?
00:17:13It's where I lost you to Joe Callahan.
00:17:16I'm about to lose to him again.
00:17:17I might have an idea that could help.
00:17:20No, that's stupid, though.
00:17:21You know what you're doing.
00:17:22No, no, wait.
00:17:23Tell me.
00:17:24What idea?
00:17:26Okay.
00:17:27You need to prove to the voters that you're the real deal.
00:17:31And I'll show them evidence that they can see with their own eyes.
00:17:34Tell me what to do.
00:17:35Call a press conference.
00:17:38My opponent, Joe Callahan, keeps saying I'm not authentic.
00:17:43And he's right.
00:17:45What the fuck?
00:17:47I did leave town.
00:17:48I went to Yale, Washington.
00:17:50I rubbed shoulders with the elites for years.
00:17:52But here's where Joe's wrong.
00:17:53I am proud of where I come from.
00:17:56That's why I want to be mayor of this town, so I can serve the hardworking people here.
00:18:01That's why I sold my house in D.C.
00:18:05And bought one right here.
00:18:07Visit anytime you like, Joe.
00:18:14You.
00:18:15You.
00:18:15What are you doing here?

00:27:48a child to
00:27:48please hey hey hey hey what's up what's wrong whoever does not know his past his present is poor
00:27:57and his future is shrouded in fog hey what are you talking about all the candidates for student
00:28:02council president had to fill out a family tree today to show the pride in where they come from
00:28:08freaking jayden saw that i didn't know who my dad was so i don't have a future hey hey no
00:28:17no no no
00:28:17freaking jayden doesn't know what he's talking about he has no idea he's wrong okay no he isn't
00:28:24i'm withdrawing from the ring hey don't do that my love don't then tell me who my father is
00:28:31i will i will hon when you're older though i promise just not right now why not it's complicated
00:28:37but i promise i promise you you do have a future even if you don't have a dad okay i
00:28:42hate you
00:28:49sarah don't don't start with that you have to tell him eleanor threatened to expel him from school
00:28:59she's gonna ruin him before he even has a chance to start to be honest he's gonna give it all
00:29:05up
00:29:05himself because you're keeping this secret you're not 18 anymore if eleanor fights dirty you can fight
00:29:13back it's not just about me it's owen if people find out that he had a kid out of wedlock
00:29:20in high
00:29:20school i mean he could lose this election his career could be over okay sarah this is not the
00:29:281970s so what if he had a kid out of wedlock plenty of elected officials have done way worse
00:29:35tom and owen both deserve to know the truth you're right i'm sorry
00:29:48one criticism is that you're all style and no substance that you offer no real solutions to
00:29:54the issues well take small business for example i proposed we raise workers wages which which places
00:30:02a financial burden on small businesses right how can anyone benefit if they can't afford to keep the
00:30:07business running yes um you'll have to excuse me i'm having a little trouble articulating at the
00:30:17moment isn't it a public servant's job to articulate things to the public
00:30:23he's been totally unfocused since that waitress advisor left
00:30:27he's stressed he's been focusing so much on the campaign he could use a little feminine comfort
00:30:35i wish that that would be my dream i've wanted owen for years well now's the time make your move
00:30:47owen hey that was great sure a few places we could tighten maybe we go get a drink talk
00:30:56strategy maybe later go after him and make sure that white trash parasite stays away what is your
00:31:03problem why is she good enough for owen and i'm not she actually helps his future remind me again how
00:31:12your story ended wow no i remember exactly how it ended and i think it's time owen finds out exactly
00:31:19who
00:31:19when do i do it security we have an intruder
00:31:32knew i'd find you here you always came here to clear your head yeah last i was here was a
00:31:38decade ago
00:31:40after you cheated on me with joe
00:31:44i actually wanted to talk to you about that i want to explain no you don't have to
00:31:50you were right we shouldn't work together too much painful history
00:31:56i mean it wasn't all painful some of it was pretty great
00:32:06and there's something you don't know so tell me
00:32:10just say it sarah he deserves to know and he could be a great father owen the truth is
00:32:22owen the truth is that that's her arrest her mom what are you doing she doesn't
00:32:31work for you anymore she's probably spying don't forget her connection with joe i would never do that
00:32:38i would never i actually want to join your campaign i've decided
00:32:46all right welcome back owen no mom i wanted to run for mayor of my hometown to reconnect with who
00:32:53i am
00:32:53with what i believe in sarah's an integral part of that i want her here nobody said anything like that
00:33:00to me in years and in a minute he'll know everything fine if that's what you want
00:33:08it's time for your interview this is the most important network in the country let's nail it all
00:33:14right so you finish telling me later yeah you come with me tell him what that would be between me
00:33:23and owen
00:33:23not your business that alert i just got it was a dna test i know that tom is owen's son
00:33:38it's right your son and i have a little chat yesterday he's really very trusting he didn't
00:33:46hesitate when i offered him a glass of water giving me plenty of dna to work with
00:33:53you have no right to approach my son you had that child behind my back your back my body my
00:34:01choice
00:34:02oh cool it with the protest slogans and now listen to what's going to happen here i will allow you
00:34:07to
00:34:08continue working for owen as long as you never tell him that tom is his son or anyone else or
00:34:16what this
00:34:17time hmm tom is an a plus student nobody's going to expel him because of one of your wins not
00:34:24this
00:34:25time especially not when they all find out that he is the child of our next mayor sweetheart
00:34:33you underestimate me tom is my grandchild i have no intention of pressuring anyone to expel him really
00:34:42no i'll let fate do that for me i would um answer that if i were you
00:34:53uh miss holden hi is everything okay what's wrong did something happen to tom
00:34:58not to tom by tom he vandalized the school's computer lab wait sir what that no that doesn't
00:35:06sound like tom he would never i know but the damage was so severe we brought in the police
00:35:11and we have tom's dna at the scene dna i'm sorry to tell you tom is suspended from school and
00:35:21thus
00:35:22disqualified for the student council elections no no no no no miss holden please look this is just this
00:35:29is a terrible mistake tom loves this school he loves it he would never do anything like that parents
00:35:35often have blind spots when it comes to their children the school board will meet and decide if
00:35:43tom should be expelled ex- goodbye
00:35:50another fatherless child turned to crime first there'll be a police report then child welfare will
00:35:58get involved why you might lose everything what kind of person frames their own grandchild a woman
00:36:09who loves her son now are you going to keep your mouth shut about tom being owens or are you
00:36:17going to
00:36:18open it and ruin tom's life fine you win i won't say anything to owen or to tom but you
00:36:33have to get
00:36:34this little incident erased off of tom's record oh i can't do that but i can have him reinstated in
00:36:43the
00:36:43student council election on the condition that you get out of our lives the moment this campaign ends
00:36:53hi
00:36:59yes it's a lot of nuance it's hard to explain a few short soundbikes but
00:37:05yes thank you for your time i hope everyone listening goes out to vote
00:37:23hello you okay in there go away i'm sorry you're having a hard time kid
00:37:29i can relate i once locked myself in that same stall after a bad day long time ago
00:37:41why would someone lie about me destroying the computer lab i didn't even do anything yeah you
00:37:46know in politics you learned a lot about lies liars are weak and they're afraid of the truth
00:37:52you just might have been the truth for someone who you running against jayden green but i don't think
00:37:59it's him yesterday our class pet your will the gerbil bit him he was crying for two hours
00:38:09how does joe callahan has such an amazing son and he's not even around well jayden might not be the
00:38:17criminal mastermind but you know what else i've learned the truth always wins in the end keep the faith
00:38:43you always stick your tongue out like that when you're concentrating
00:38:48i guess i do the same thing he couldn't be mine could he
00:38:56you
00:38:57tom i heard about the computer lab i'm so sorry are you okay where are you
00:39:03oh
00:39:06holden hi what are you doing here following up on your son's vandalism i don't know if you
00:39:12understand how much damage was done it looks even worse than your house oh oh um
00:39:21sorry i just i started a new job and i haven't really had time to go i admit i was
00:39:25surprised to
00:39:25learn tom was behind it he's a model student but now i understand children often act out when they
00:39:35are neglected neglected i would never neglect tom and he didn't act out he was frank oh well if you
00:39:44know the perpetrator i'd love to know she'll never believe eleanor did it not without any proof and then
00:39:49tom would get thrown out i know tom like the back of my hand he would never act out like
00:39:55this the
00:39:56evidence says otherwise and uh as the parent it is your responsibility to pay for the damages
00:40:10i don't have that kind of money miss watson
00:40:14your son smashed 15 laptops and broke three windows the only reason he did not get expelled
00:40:22is because eleanor carter spoke on his behalf she's the one who did this in the first place
00:40:28and if i leave your house today without a check even she can't help him
00:40:37tom where were you wait are you saying you had no idea where your son was this whole time his
00:40:45bus
00:40:45should have dropped him off long ago i missed it what how did you get home i got a ride

00:42:22don't buy that whose child is tom really

00:57:48I never forgot your smell.
00:58:00The sound of your laugh.
00:58:11I never forgot you, Sarah.
00:58:22Don't move.
00:58:23You look perfect in this light.
00:58:28Good morning.
00:58:29Good morning.
00:58:36I missed you.
00:58:37I missed you, too.
00:58:40But...
00:58:41Oh, and this scares me.
00:58:43What, the campaign?
00:58:44My mom?
00:58:46Look, Sarah, we're gonna figure this out.
00:58:49No one can defeat us when we're together.
00:58:51I'm here to stay.
00:58:53I have to tell him.
00:58:55He's Tom's father, and I have to tell him right now.
00:58:59Owen...
00:59:00I've been keeping a secret from you.
00:59:04And when I tell you...
00:59:06I don't know if you'll ever be able to forgive me.
00:59:11There's nothing you could say that would change the way I feel about you.
00:59:18Tom...
00:59:21Is...
00:59:22Owen, are you in there?
00:59:24Oh my God, that's your move.
00:59:25Um, I'll hide.
00:59:26No.
00:59:27We're together now.
00:59:28We have nothing to hide.
00:59:32I should have known.
00:59:34Mom, I'm a grown man.
00:59:35Yes, and I don't have time to deal with this.
00:59:39And...
00:59:40I am guessing this means you haven't had time to see the news yet.
00:59:49You assaulted the senator on the night before election day?
00:59:54The man is a state hero.
00:59:57Do you want to lose?
00:59:58He tried to assault Sarah.
01:00:00Oh, why am I not surprised?
01:00:02You've been bad luck to my son his whole life.
01:00:05None of this is Sarah's fault.
01:00:07She does nothing but cause damage.
01:00:09Who knows what other secrets she might have that could ruin your life?
01:00:12Sarah didn't cause any of this.
01:00:16Owen...
01:00:17Your mom's right.
01:00:21What are you talking about?
01:00:22You've only ever made my life better.
01:00:24Even when she cheated on you with Joe Callahan.
01:00:27Mom, that was years ago.
01:00:30I don't want to cause you any more trouble.
01:00:33You need to distance yourself from me.
01:00:36So...
01:00:37I'm resigning as your advisor.
01:00:40Sarah!
01:00:41Excellent!
01:00:42So we'll issue a denial, claim it's a fake video put out by your rivals.
01:00:47Liars are people who are afraid of the truth.
01:00:50That's not me.
01:00:51Owen, think of your political life!
01:00:54I don't want that life if I can't have my integrity.
01:00:56Where are you going?
01:00:58Do something I should have done a long time ago.
01:01:01Talk to Joe Callahan.
01:01:05You tell me, huh?
01:01:09Where the hell have you been?
01:01:10It's election day.
01:01:11I need to shut down the food bank and get to the polls.
01:01:18What the fuck, Carter?
01:01:19You're here to beat me up like you did to Senator Whitmore?
01:01:21He deserved it.
01:01:22Whatever the reason, that's the best thing that could have happened to me.
01:01:25You just handed me this election on a silver platter.
01:01:28He sexually assaulted Sarah Watson.
01:01:30You remember Sarah.
01:01:32You two hooked up in high school when she was still with me.
01:01:34So you're just here for revenge?
01:01:37By another casualty of your mental breakdown?
01:01:39Look, I want you to issue a joint statement with me against the Senator.
01:01:42All right.
01:01:44No, I'm writing this into the mayor's office.
01:01:47I mean, there are so many corporations in my pocket.
01:01:50And I'm cashing in.
01:01:52Do the right thing for once, Joe.
01:01:55Sarah's the mother of your child.
01:01:57What the fuck are you talking about, Carter?
01:01:59I never slept with Sarah.
01:02:02So Joe isn't Tom's father?
01:02:05You never slept with Sarah?
01:02:07No.
01:02:07Sarah came on to me that one time.
01:02:09Kissed me.
01:02:10You saw us.
01:02:11Then she disappeared.
01:02:13That's it.
01:02:18Where the fuck's my driver?
01:02:22Hey, Tom!
01:02:23Daisy, where are y'all?
01:02:26Okay, hi.
01:02:27I'm not moving for jokes.
01:02:28Where are you guys?
01:02:29Tom!
01:02:29Daisy!
01:02:29You can't find your son.
01:02:32Miss Holden?
01:02:34Uh...
01:02:34Sorry, what are you doing here again?
01:02:37I received an anonymous tip that Tom was left alone last night.
01:02:41As his principal, I came over right away to check.
01:02:45And to see if I need to call CPS.
01:02:48Okay.
01:02:49There has been a huge misunderstanding.
01:02:51My friend stayed with Tom last night,
01:02:53so they're just probably out getting breakfast or something right now.
01:02:55Sarah!
01:02:56I'm so sorry.
01:02:57I got locked in the bathroom at the gala, and then my phone died.
01:03:00I just...
01:03:00Look, so...
01:03:01Are you saying that you didn't make it here last night?
01:03:03No.
01:03:06Where is Tom?
01:03:09Tom?
01:03:10Tom, please!
01:03:11Please, where are you?
01:03:12Your babysitter never arrived to take care of your son, and now he's missing?
01:03:16Really?
01:03:16This is very serious.
01:03:18Ms. Holden, if you care about Tom at all, I need you to help me look for him.
01:03:23I will help Tom by calling the police and having you arrested.
01:03:28What?
01:03:29Tom needs to be placed in a safe home.
01:03:31And between your bikini photos at the campaign headquarters and the video of you egging Owen Carter on to hit
01:03:40our senator, you belong in prison.
01:03:43I don't have time for this bullshit right now.
01:03:46I need to find my son.
01:03:54Oh my god.
01:03:55I was just at HQ and I overheard someone saying that they saw your son.
01:04:00He's down by the river with some older man.
01:04:05Mom?
01:04:06I'm fine.
01:04:10Hi.
01:04:11Oh my god, I was so worried.
01:04:15Where were you?
01:04:17When I woke up, you weren't here and neither was Daisy.
01:04:20So I went to the cafe to look for you, and Owen found me.
01:04:24I've heard enough.
01:04:27Mr. Carter can't save you this time.
01:04:29Your child could have been killed while you were off doing God knows what.
01:04:34It wasn't her fault.
01:04:36Somebody locked me in the bathroom.
01:04:42You.
01:04:43You did this.
01:04:45You locked Daisy in that bathroom.
01:04:48Probably on Eleanor's orders.
01:04:49I'm willing to bet that you're also the one that made that call to Miss Holden.
01:04:55You know what?
01:04:56You mess with me.
01:04:58Fine.
01:04:59I can handle it.
01:05:01But you crossed a line trying to get my son taken away from me.
01:05:06I will kill you!
01:05:08I'm gonna kill her!
01:05:09Hey!
01:05:10She's not worth it.
01:05:13Brittany, you can see yourself out now.
01:05:15Owen, I can explain.
01:05:17You heard me.
01:05:17Owen, please, I...
01:05:18You're fired.
01:05:20After everything I've done.
01:05:28I'll add assault to the list of things I need to report to the police and CPS.
01:05:33Poor Tom has no stable adult presence in his life.
01:05:38But I do.
01:05:39Owen Carter is my father.
01:05:44Owen Carter is your father?
01:05:46Of course.
01:05:47Isn't that right?
01:05:48Dad?
01:05:50Yes.
01:05:52He's my son.
01:05:56Can't you see we look alike?
01:05:58I've known you a long time, Mr. Carter.
01:06:01You've never mentioned any children.
01:06:04Well, we didn't want it to get out.
01:06:06We were young and unmarried and thought it might scare off the voters.
01:06:10But Tom is my son.
01:06:11If Tom has a stable parental figure in his life, then I don't have to call the authorities.
01:06:21I'm sorry.
01:06:22I really was only trying to help Tom.
01:06:31Now, does anyone have a charger?
01:06:34I need to upload my videos.
01:06:36Um, the public is waiting.
01:06:37Sure, Aunt Daisy.
01:06:46Thank you for saving us again.
01:06:51Well, it was all thanks to this little guy, concocting that story that I'm his father.
01:06:56The resourcefulness of a true politician.
01:06:59How'd you come up with that brilliant story?
01:07:01I told you, it's in my blood.
01:07:05Should I tell Owen now that he's Tom's father?
01:07:15Owen.
01:07:18Meet your son.
01:07:20Tom.
01:07:22Tom.
01:07:24Owen Carter is your dad.
01:07:27For real.
01:07:30Tom.
01:07:31Tom's my son.
01:07:33You're my dad?
01:07:35No way.
01:07:36Way.
01:07:36Long way, but...
01:07:41Dad!
01:07:43I can't believe it.
01:07:45You know, it's strange.
01:07:47But I think I can believe it.
01:07:50You can't?
01:07:52Me.
01:07:55Yeah, I, uh...
01:07:57Talked to Joe.
01:07:58He said you two never...
01:07:59Yeah.
01:08:00You know.
01:08:02Um...
01:08:03Owen, listen, I'm really sorry.
01:08:06That I lied to you.
01:08:07I just...
01:08:09I thought this would ruin your career, and your mom had promised me that it would.
01:08:15She forced me to break up with you.
01:08:19And she gave me money for an abortion.
01:08:22She what?
01:08:22I know, but it's not an excuse.
01:08:24I know that it's not an excuse.
01:08:25I am so sorry you had a right to all of those years with your son.
01:08:30Hey, people.
01:08:31Let bygones be bygones.
01:08:34So, are you and mom boyfriend and girlfriend?
01:08:40Well, I don't know.
01:08:43Are we?
01:08:48Why can't you just say yes?
01:08:51I lied to you.
01:08:53I don't know how to come back from that.
01:08:55I can fix this.
01:08:57Like a politician.
01:08:59Dad, do you love mom?
01:09:03I do.
01:09:06I don't want to be with her.
01:09:07The future mayor has stated his position.
01:09:10Your rebuttal?
01:09:12My rebuttal.
01:09:22Is that the ring you were going to propose to me with in high school?
01:09:26You kept it?
01:09:27I hoped for so long that this moment would come.
01:09:33And it has.
01:09:37Sarah Watson, will you marry me?
01:09:43Yes.
01:09:45Owen, it's always been you.
01:09:50We're going to be a family?
01:09:53I'm the mayor's son.
01:09:56Oh, my God, the election.
01:09:59Joe's video.
01:09:59We never made a rebuttal.
01:10:00What do we do?
01:10:02The only thing we can do.
01:10:04Lose.
01:10:06No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:10:07You can still win this.
01:10:08Nah, the polls are open.
01:10:10Joe's going to win.
01:10:10No, no, I will.
01:10:12I'll go.
01:10:12I will give an interview.
01:10:13I'll tell everybody what happened.
01:10:14You were just protecting me.
01:10:15Too little, too late.
01:10:17It's your word against the senators.
01:10:19But you said the truth always wins.
01:10:21Hey.
01:10:24And the truth did win today.
01:10:26The only truth that matters.
01:10:28That you're my son.
01:10:30We're going to go to HQ with our heads held high.
01:10:33We're going to say thank you to the volunteers and staffers.
01:10:36And we're going to move right on to the next election.
01:10:39Because that's what we do.
01:10:42I'm sorry.
01:10:46You guys, my video is blowing up.
01:10:49I mean, I guess I did look good in that dress.
01:10:53Whoa.
01:10:54Did I miss something?
01:10:59Where the hell is Owen?
01:11:04How dare you walk in here with my son after you cost him the election?
01:11:08Mother, meet your grandson.
01:11:11My son, the one you tried to have aborted.
01:11:16You forced Sarah to hide him from me for all these years.
01:11:21Convinced her to break my heart.
01:11:23And then you tried to have him expelled.
01:11:25How could you?
01:11:26I did it for you.
01:11:27So you could go to a prestigious college and go to DC and live your dreams.
01:11:33Without me, you'd be a plumber right now.
01:11:37If it would give me back ten years with my son, I would gladly be a plumber.
01:11:42Well, you might get your wish.
01:11:44Since you punched Senator Whitmore, you're certain to lose the race.
01:11:49That's what you care about?
01:11:52Just go. I can't even look at you.
01:11:55Owen?
01:11:56You know, mother, I'm not going to lose this race.
01:12:00Because I'm going to withdraw from it.
01:12:02To focus on the important things.
01:12:15It doesn't make any sense.
01:12:17I've gotten a million views in just two hours.
01:12:19What?
01:12:20Yes.
01:12:21Let me see.
01:12:25Dear friends,
01:12:27I'm so grateful for all the hard work you put into this campaign.
01:12:31But I regret to inform you that due to personal circumstances, I'm withdrawing my candidacy for mayor.
01:12:40No, no, no, no, no. He's not. He is not.
01:12:47Everyone, open the news. My video has gone viral.
01:12:53You need to watch Daisy's video right now.
01:12:56Dress is from agency.
01:12:58See?
01:12:58Okay, look right there.
01:13:00Zoom in.
01:13:01The lip liner is from Foxy.
01:13:04Make sure y'all click the link in my bio.
01:13:06Carter protected a woman. He's the mayor we need.
01:13:10People are starting to believe you.
01:13:12You're still in this race.
01:13:14Owen is not aware yet.
01:13:19Mom! Dad, guess what?
01:13:21I won! I'm student council president!
01:13:23What?
01:13:24That's amazing, buddy!
01:13:25Come here!
01:13:27You'll win too, Dad. I know it.
01:13:30Just now.
01:13:34That'll be the results.
01:13:36I... I can't.
01:13:38I...
01:13:39Okay.
01:13:41Hello?
01:13:44Yeah.
01:13:45Yeah, I'll tell him.
01:13:52How bad is it?
01:13:54The landslide.
01:13:55Wow.
01:13:57Congratulations, Mayor Carter.
01:13:59What?
01:14:00Yeah. You won!
01:14:04My dad is mayor!
01:14:14It's all thanks to you.
01:14:17Congratulations, son.
01:14:20All I ever wanted was for you to be happy.
01:14:23I...
01:14:24I went about it the wrong way.
01:14:26But I never...
01:14:28I never meant to hurt you.
01:14:31I'm so...
01:14:32So sorry.
01:14:35You are my life.
01:14:40Please...
01:14:41Forgive me.
01:14:45Hey.
01:14:49You don't owe my mother anything.
01:14:52No.
01:14:54But...
01:14:56You'll find this out soon enough.
01:14:59When you become a parent,
01:15:01your entire world becomes about that child.
01:15:05And I know what it's like to not see straight,
01:15:08try and protect them.
01:15:10And you're gonna make plenty of mistakes too.
01:15:12Trust me.
01:15:15You should forgive her.
01:15:32Now,
01:15:34who wants a victory photo?
01:15:36Okay.
01:15:36Okay.
01:15:38One...
01:15:38Two...
01:15:39Three.
01:15:43You're gonna make a great cover story.
01:15:47Oh, I am so sorry.
01:15:48We're renovating right now.
01:15:50We?
01:15:50You mean I get a say in the design?
01:15:53You have much more important things to worry about, Mr. Mayor.
01:15:57Mm-hmm.
01:15:59Congratulations.
01:16:00The mayor he left.
01:16:02One small question that interests our readers.
01:16:06Is it hard for you to work together,
01:16:09live together, and raise a child together?
01:16:12Well, we have one rule at home.
01:16:14Whatever the argument, no matter who says what,
01:16:16the truth always wins in the end.
01:16:19And who decides what the truth is?
01:16:21Me.
01:16:23What's up?
01:16:25What's up?
01:16:26Well, we'll get you together,
01:16:34and we can't be together.
01:16:35I'll show you the pattern.
01:16:37Well, no, no.
