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 gonna be sick.
00:00:49No, no, no, no. But we use protection.
00:00:53Sarah, listen to me. I've let this little fling go on because I assumed you were just some high school
00:00:59amusement.
00:01:01Oh, and can't have some trashy low-class girl on his arm if he wants to succeed.
00:01:05What have you got there?
00:01:08Give it to me.
00:01:11Give it to me.
00:01:12Give it to me!
00:01:19You're pregnant.
00:01:22This 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,
00:01:38his career is over before it begins.
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?
00:01:49If you really love Owen, you will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:01:58Understand?
00:02:06Owen, 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'd talk 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.
00:02:31We 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.
00:02:59Owen.
00:03:00I'm so sorry.
00:03:02I-
00:03:03Hey, man.
00:03:05She came on to me, so...
00:03:06You son of a bitch!
00:03:08Owen!
00:03:08Look at the Ivy Leagues in Congress.
00:03:10Don'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.
00:04:11What the fuck?
00:04:12My coffee isn't even hot.
00:04:14If I wanted a room temperature slop,
00:04:15I would've ordered it.
00:04:17I'm so sorry about that, ma'am.
00:04:18It was hot when I first brought it out,
00:04:20but 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 here tomorrow.
00:04:33Filming?
00:04:34Filming what?
00:04:35Filming what?
00:04:36I'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's 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.
00:05:04There you go.
00:05:05Okay.
00:05:06Uh, do you want to run your speech
00:05:07before you head out?
00:05:08Ah, 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.
00:05:15Owen Carter, who left 10 years ago
00:05:16for Washington, D.C.,
00:05:18has returned to his hometown to run for mayor.
00:05:20From young, handsome billionaire
00:05:22to mayor of one of the East Coast biggest cities.
00:05:26Can Carter pull it off?
00:05:27I can think of some things I'd love
00:05:28Owen Carter to pull off of me.
00:05:30Owen Carter?
00:05:31Wow, no way.
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.
00:05:55Um, as in he wears the same jeans and pants.
00:05:59As you do.
00:06:00As you do.
00:06:00So you are going to be late for your young leaders conference.
00:06:03Remember.
00:06:03If you're late.
00:06:05You've already lost the debate.
00:06:06Uh-huh.
00:06:07Goodbye, Mom.
00:06:08I love you.
00:06:09Bye.
00:06:10Bye.
00:06:12I'm sorry.
00:06:14I 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.
00:06:20You 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.
00:06:33He'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?
00:07:00Oh my God.
00:07:00Everyone needs Owen Carter in their life.
00:07:02He's perfect.
00:07:03He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:05He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:06He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:06Oh my God.
00:07:08Oh my God.
00:07:09Oh my God.
00:07:13Oh my God.
00:07:14Oh my God.
00:07:15Oh my God.
00:07:15Oh my God.
00:07:18Oh my God.
00:07:19We're gonna be our leader.
00:07:21We're gonna start by leading me.
00:07:23Oh my God.
00:07:25Oh my God.
00:07:25Get in mind, bitches.
00:07:27I'm going to be Mrs. Mayor.
00:07:29We can already see Owen Carter's passionate fan base, as he makes his first stop at the Simple
00:07:34Cafe where 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
00:07:45for you because I did my opposition research.
00:07:46Brittany, my whole campaign is about helping small businesses.
00:07:49I think I know what questions to ask.
00:07:51Alright.
00:08:10What's wrong?
00:08:11You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:08:13Not a ghost.
00:08:15A fairy.
00:08:27Are you sure you want to do this?
00:08:29Yeah.
00:08:30I want you to be mine first.
00:08:40Alright, let's get you out of the sun.
00:08:42Gotta 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?
00:09:05Uh, 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.
00:09:27What are you doing?
00:09:34Oh!
00:09:35Oh!
00:09:36Oh my god, I am...
00:09:37I'm so sorry.
00:09:38I'm so sorry.
00:09:39Uh, are you okay?
00:09:41Heh.
00:09:42I'll live.
00:09:44How are you, Barry?
00:09:49That's gonna burn.
00:09:51Um...
00:09:51Luckily, I work all day with boiling hot liquids, so...
00:09:56I always carry something all on me.
00:10:04Um...
00:10:10Look at you saving me again.
00:10:13Just like old time South Airy.
00:10:17What the fuck, Sarah?
00:10:18You spilled coffee on the future mayor?
00:10:20Hey, it'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.
00:10:24I can't afford quality girls, so I have to set off a trash like...
00:10:28Hey!
00:10:29That 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.
00:10:41You 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...
00:10:50I quit!
00:10:51You fucking bitch!
00:10:55Don't you dare lay a hammer 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.
00:11:25So...
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.
00:11:34You should at least let me give you a ride home.
00:11:37I live close enough to walk.
00:11:38It's fine.
00:11:40In 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?
00:12:00Thanks for helping me out.
00:12:01Yeah.
00:12:02I mean, I did sell coffee on you, so I would, yeah.
00:12:05Uh, shower is right there.
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:16Uh, 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.
00:12:24No boyfriend.
00:12:25No husband.
00:12:26No shirt.
00:12:27Uh, the only thing I have that might fit you are the sweatshirts I sleep in.
00:12:37This is my sweatshirt.
00:12:40You kept it.
00:12:42Oh.
00:12:43I mean, not like for any reason.
00:12:45Just saving money, I guess, but yeah.
00:12:48Ah, 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.
00:13:07Or that I'm even interacting with Owen at all.
00:13:11So what are you gonna 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 by the people who lead
00:13:33it, 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 by who it refuses to leave behind.
00:13:53So?
00:13:54I got a proposal for you.
00:13:57You should come work for me.
00:14:02I need a political advisor.
00:14:04Remember high school? You used to help me strategize for debate team.
00:14:07You, you helped me write up my talking points.
00:14:10You helped me beat Joe Callahan back then. We can beat him again now.
00:14:13You remember all that?
00:14:14I remember everything, Sarah.
00:14:19Sarah!
00:14:20What are you doing?
00:14:26Oh.
00:14:27Sorry.
00:14:29Truth is,
00:14:31I'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. I 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, Ferry.
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.
00:15:36No, 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.
00:16:00Don't tell me.
00:16:02Who?
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 kinda right, though.
00:16:22Owen needs a miracle.
00:16:23I know how to make him a miracle.
00:16:25Okay.
00:16:27It is not. 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.
00:16:49He's 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.
00:17:09Our 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.
00:17:46What 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.
00:17:54I 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.
00:18:15What are you doing here?
00:18:17You have a lot of nerves showing up again.
00:18:21I thought we got rid of you like you got rid of your fetus.
00:18:25I warned you years ago to stay away.
00:18:29And I am very powerful in this town.
00:18:33Owen.
00:18:34Look who crashed your little event.
00:18:38The sweetheart who cheated on you with Joe Callahan.
00:18:42Mom, let's leave the past in the past.
00:18:44Sarah's my new political advisor.
00:18:49You gotta be kidding.
00:18:50She's your new advisor?
00:18:52Yes.
00:18:53She's a brilliant political mind.
00:18:55No.
00:18:56No.
00:18:56Nope.
00:18:56I don't work for him.
00:18:57I helped him with one small thing.
00:19:00That's it.
00:19:01I hope you'll reconsider.
00:19:03I'm behind in the polls.
00:19:04I need you.
00:19:05No, you don't.
00:19:06You already have Brittany and me.
00:19:08And this one didn't even go to college.
00:19:11She saved us.
00:19:12It was her idea to buy the house.
00:19:14That's just some basic idea from an inexperienced mind trying to pander to the masses.
00:19:22Okay.
00:19:23I'm gonna go.
00:19:25So thank you and goodbye.
00:19:27Mom, what are you doing here?
00:19:30You have a child?
00:19:31You have a child.
00:19:36Sarah, is this your son?
00:19:38Tom, what are you doing here?
00:19:39You forgot to give me my campaign stickers for the council.
00:19:42Daisy said you'd be here.
00:19:44Do you work for Owen Carter?
00:19:48I don't know.
00:19:50Maybe.
00:19:51Wow, Mr. Carter.
00:19:53My name is Tom Watson.
00:19:56I'm a big fan.
00:19:58I wish I was old enough so I could vote for you.
00:20:01I wish I was young enough to vote for you.
00:20:03Student council president, huh?
00:20:05You know, I once had the same job at the same school.
00:20:09Of course I know.
00:20:10I know, like, everything about you.
00:20:13Okay, bud.
00:20:13Uh, we gotta get back to work.
00:20:15Wait, can I get a picture first?
00:20:17Absolutely.
00:20:19Okay.
00:20:21All right.
00:20:24One, two.
00:20:25We look so natural together.
00:20:29Maybe I should just tell them.
00:20:32The resemblance is uncanny.
00:20:34Any advice for my campaign?
00:20:37Uh, well, I've always said do good when no one's looking, but, uh, your mom's the real campaign genius.
00:20:45Thanks.
00:20:45I know.
00:20:46My mom told me my dad's a politician, too.
00:20:53Okay, you should probably get back to class.
00:20:55Bye, Mr. Carter.
00:20:56Good luck.
00:20:59Great kid.
00:21:01Yes, Sarah.
00:21:03Exactly.
00:21:04How old is your charming little boy?
00:21:08He's, um, almost ten.
00:21:12Is it possible that Tom is my son?
00:21:15I understand now.
00:21:18That politician father must be Joe Callahan.
00:21:25I mean, they did date.
00:21:28And, or at least, whatever it was we saw them doing.
00:21:32Mom, it's none of our business.
00:21:35I'm gonna head out.
00:21:37Wait.
00:21:39I have a surprise for you.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:48This room needs a little work.
00:21:52I cannot believe that this is the house you bought.
00:21:56Heh.
00:21:56You remember it?
00:21:57The house you grew up in.
00:22:00Smart.
00:22:01More mind voters of your childhood.
00:22:03Lots of good memories in this room.
00:22:10Admittedly, you could use a little furniture.
00:22:13I remember my desk used to be right over there.
00:22:15Oh, my God.
00:22:16Do you remember?
00:22:17You used to get that mattress and bring it down here.
00:22:19You used to put it right here.
00:22:21Uh, yeah.
00:22:22To be near my books.
00:22:24No, exactly.
00:22:25Oh, God.
00:22:26That was finals week.
00:22:28Finals week.
00:22:31That was our first time.
00:22:37Are you sure you want to do this?
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41I want you to be my first.
00:22:48That's why it still feels like home here.
00:22:51All my best memories were here.
00:22:54Because they all involved you.
00:22:59Owen, you can't be serious.
00:23:01We have three mansions, a penthouse in D.C. and Manhattan, a lake house, and you want
00:23:07to live here.
00:23:08I like it.
00:23:10I'm staying.
00:23:11May I have a word with my son?
00:23:16You never did think clearly when I came to that girl.
00:23:19She has trouble.
00:23:20She's not.
00:23:21And I'm a grown man.
00:23:22Trust me.
00:23:23Every choice she makes will cost you.
00:23:29Owen, I can't believe it.
00:23:31But that whole buying a house thing?
00:23:32It worked.
00:23:33You just went up almost 20 points in the polls.
00:23:38You see, Mom, you gotta trust me.
00:23:41Sarah and I can do great things together.
00:23:43Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.
00:23:47Well, I'm doubling that squirrel's offer.
00:23:49That's my decision.
00:23:51It's not changing.
00:23:52All right.
00:23:53If that's your decision as your campaign manager, I will close the deal with her.
00:23:58Now, you just focus on winning and Sarah and I will start fresh.
00:24:05Hey, Sarah.
00:24:08Your plan worked.
00:24:09We went up in the polls.
00:24:10I know.
00:24:11I saw.
00:24:12See, Eleanor, I told you.
00:24:13I'm not trying to hurt Owen.
00:24:15I'm trying to help him.
00:24:16I am sure we can work together.
00:24:19Now, Owen has a call scheduled with the governor.
00:24:22We should let him take that.
00:24:31You saw the polls.
00:24:32Oh, just shut up.
00:24:34So, in the end, you kept seeing Joe, even though it started as a facade.
00:24:41I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
00:24:43I can't tell her who Tom's father really is.
00:24:47Imagine getting knocked up by both candidates.
00:24:51Listen up, you two-bit skank.
00:24:54Here's how it's going to be.
00:24:56We both know that you are dangerous to Owen's career.
00:24:59If it gets out that he got you pregnant in high school and you got an abortion.
00:25:04I listened to you in high school.
00:25:07I'm not that little girl anymore.
00:25:08I'm not.
00:25:10I need this job and I would never hurt Owen.
00:25:15You have no idea who you're dealing with.
00:25:19You will tell Owen you are refusing the job or I will make your life hell.
00:25:25You already did make my life hell.
00:25:29You cost me the love of my life.
00:25:31I have nothing left to lose.
00:25:33Hmm.
00:25:34Really?
00:25:35Your son goes to Montclair Academy, correct?
00:25:41Did you know I am still on their school board?
00:25:45You leave my son out of this?
00:25:48If you want your bastard to have a future, you will get out of our lives.
00:25:54So either Tom loses the opportunity of his life or I lose the man who is the love of mine.
00:26:03So, Sarah, make your choice.
00:26:11Second, let's adjust the tie.
00:26:12Alright.
00:26:15You know what?
00:26:15Let's take a picture together.
00:26:18Don't we look like we're a couple?
00:26:21Sorry if I'm interrupting anything.
00:26:22You are interrupting everything.
00:26:25I just need to talk to Owen.
00:26:27Sure.
00:26:27This can wait.
00:26:30That whore.
00:26:31I will get my man.
00:26:33What's up?
00:26:34Hey, um, I can't take this job.
00:26:37Why?
00:26:37It's too hard.
00:26:39Just working together, it's just bringing up a lot of really painful memories for me.
00:26:43Oh, look, Sarah, this is hard for me, too.
00:26:45I mean, you broke my heart, but I'm willing to put it behind me because I believe in what we're
00:26:49doing here.
00:26:50Well, I do, too.
00:26:51I just can't.
00:26:52If I can't convince you to stay, you gotta at least let me pay you for your first day.
00:27:04Five thousand dollars?
00:27:07For one day?
00:27:08Owen, I can't take, that's too much.
00:27:10And that one day, you changed the whole momentum of this election.
00:27:13You're really talented, Sarah.
00:27:15Truth is, I need you.
00:27:19I'm sorry.
00:27:21If you want your bastard to have a future, you will get out of our lives.
00:27:27I can't.
00:27:28Change your mind.
00:27:29I'm right here.
00:27:35Five grand.
00:27:37For one day?
00:27:38We make $150 at the cafe.
00:27:41I know.
00:27:42I have to give it back.
00:27:43Don't you dare.
00:27:44Okay, you don't have a job thanks to him.
00:27:46And you have bills to pay, you have a child to raise.
00:27:51Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:27:52What's up?
00:27:53What's wrong?
00:27:54Whoever does not know his past, his present is poor and his future is shrouded in fog.
00:28:00Hey, what are you talking about?
00:28:01All the candidates for student council president had to fill out a family tree today to show the pride in
00:28:07where they come from.
00:28:08Frickin' Jaden saw that I didn't know who my dad was, though I don't have a future.
00:28:15Hey.
00:28:16Hey.
00:28:17No, no, no, no, no.
00:28:18Frickin' Jaden doesn't know what he's talking about.
00:28:20He has no idea.
00:28:21He's wrong.
00:28:22Okay?
00:28:22No, he isn't.
00:28:24I'm withdrawing from the ring.
00:28:25Hey, hey, don't do that, my love.
00:28:27Don't.
00:28:27Then tell me who my father is.
00:28:31I will.
00:28:32I will, hon.
00:28:33When you're older, though, I promise.
00:28:34Just not right now.
00:28:35Why not?
00:28:36It's complicated.
00:28:37But I promise, I promise you, you do have a future, even if you don't have a dad, okay?
00:28:42I hate you!
00:28:49Sarah, don't.
00:28:50Don't start with the you have to tell him.
00:28:55Eleanor threatened to expel him from school.
00:28:59She's gonna ruin him before he even has a chance to start.
00:29:02To be honest, he's gonna give it all up himself.
00:29:06Because you're keeping this secret.
00:29:07You're not 18 anymore.
00:29:10If Eleanor fights dirty, you can fight back.
00:29:13It's not just about me.
00:29:16It's Owen.
00:29:17If people find out that he had a kid out of wedlock in high school, I mean, he could lose
00:29:23this election. His career could be over.
00:29:25Okay, Sarah, this is not the 1970s. So what if he had a kid out of wedlock? Plenty of elected
00:29:33officials have done way worse. Tom and Owen both deserve to know the truth.
00:29:38You'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 the issues.
00:29:55Well, take small business, for example. I proposed we raise workers' wages.
00:30:01Which places a financial burden on small businesses, right?
00:30:05How can anyone benefit if they can't afford to keep the business running?
00:30:09Yes.
00:30:13You'll have to excuse me. I'm having a little trouble articulating at the moment.
00:30:17Isn'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.
00:30:28He's stressed. He's been focusing so much on the campaign. He could use a little feminine comfort.
00:30:36I wish. That would be my dream. I've wanted Owen for years.
00:30:42Well, 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 strategy?
00:30:56Maybe later.
00:30:58Go after him and make sure that white trash parasite stays away.
00:31:03What is your problem? Why is she good enough for Owen and I'm not?
00:31:07She actually helps his future. Remind me again how your story ended.
00:31:14Wow. No, I remember exactly how it ended and I think it's time Owen finds out exactly who ended it.
00:31:21You did?
00:31:26Security? We have an intruder.
00:31:32Knew I'd find you here. You always came here to clear your head.
00:31:37Yeah. Last I was here was a decade ago... after you cheated on me with Jo.
00:31:44i actually wanted to talk to you about that when i 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

00:35:24elections no no no no miss holden please look this is just this is a terrible mistake tom loves this

00:35:38to their children the school board will meet and decide if tom should be expelled ex- goodbye
00:35:51another fatherless child turned to crime first there'll be a police report then child welfare will get
00:35:58get involved why you might lose everything what kind of person frames their own grandchild a woman

00:36:18going to
00:36:18open it and ruin tom's life fine

00:36:36off of tom's
00:36:36record oh i can't do that but i can have him reinstated in the student council election on the condition
00:36:46that you get out of our lives the moment this campaign ends hi

00:37:41why would someone lie about me destroying the computer lab i didn't even do anything
00:37:46yeah you know in politics you learn a lot about lies
00:37:50liars are weak and they're afraid of the truth you just might have been the truth for someone
00:37:55who you running against jayden green but i don't think it's him yesterday our class pet your will
00:38:02the gerbil bit him he was crying for two hours
00:38:09how does joe callahan have such an amazing son and he's not even around well jayden might not be the

00:39:28model student but now he understands children often act out when they are neglected neglected
00:39:38i would never neglect tom and he didn't act out he was frank oh well if you know the perpetrator
00:39:45i'd
00:39:45love to know she'll never believe eleanor did it not without any proof and then tom would get thrown out
00:39:51i know tom like the back of my hand he would never act out like this the evidence says otherwise
00:39:59and uh as the parent it is your responsibility to pay for the damages
00:40:07twenty thousand dollars
00:40:11well i 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

00:58:00The sound of your laugh.
00:58:11I never forgot you, Sarah.
00:58:22Don't move.
00:58:23You look perfect in this light.
00:58:27Good morning.
00:58:29Good morning.
00:58:36I missed you.
00:58:37I missed you, too.
00:58:40But...
00:58:41Owen, this scares me.
00:58:43What, the campaign?
00:58:45My 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.
00:58:58Owen,
00:59:00I've been keeping a secret from you.
00:59:04And when I tell you...
00:59:07I don't know if he'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 I am guessing this means you haven't had time to see the news yet.
00:59:50You 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.
01:00:15Owen, your 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.
01:00:35So, I'm resigning as your advisor.
01:00:41Sarah!
01:00:41Excellent.
01:00:42So, we'll issue a denial.
01:00:44Claim 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.
01:00:57Where are you going?
01:00:59Do 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?
01:01:11It'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 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?
01:01:37Am I another casualty of your mental breakdown?
01:01:39Look, I want you to issue a joint statement with me against the Senator.
01:01:43Now write.
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?
01:02:06No, Sarah came on to me that one time, kissed me, you saw us, then she disappeared, and that's it.
01:02:18Where the fuck's my driver?
01:02:22Hey, Tom, Daisy, where are y'all?
01:02:26Okay, ha, I'm not moving for jokes.
01:02:28Where are you guys?
01:02:29Tom, Daisy.
01:02:30You can't find your son.
01:02:32Miss Holden?
01:02:33Uh, sorry, 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's been a huge misunderstanding.
01:02:51My friend stayed with Tom last night, so they're just probably out getting breakfast or something right now.
01:02:55Sarah, I'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, are you saying that you didn't make it here last night?
01:03:04No.
01:03:06Where is Tom?
01:03:09Tom?
01:03:10Tom, please, please, where are you?
01:03:12Your babysitter never arrived to take care of your son, and now he's missing?
01:03:17This is very serious.
01:03:18Miss 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.
01:03:27What?
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,
01:03:41you belong in prison.
01:03:44I 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.
01:04:12I was so worried.
01:04:13I...
01:04:16Where 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.
01:04:30Your 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.
01:04:44You did this.
01:04:45You locked Daisy in that bathroom.
01:04:48Probably on Eleanor's orders.
01:04:50I'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.
01:05:07I will kill you.
01:05:08I'm gonna be killer.
01:05:10She's not worth it.
01:05:13Brittany, you can see yourself out now.
01:05:15Owen, I can explain.
01:05:17I was just trying to do this.
01:05:17Owen, please.
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.
01:05:40Owen 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.
01:06:12If Tom has a stable parental figure in his life,
01:06:17then 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.
01:06:36The 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
01:06:53concocting 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.
01:07:06Should I tell Owen now that he's Tom's father?
01:07:14Owen.
01:07:18Meet your son.
01:07:21Tom.
01:07:22Tom.
01:07:24Owen Carter is your dad.
01:07:27For real.
01:07:30Tom.
01:07:31Tom's my son.
01:07:32You're my dad?
01:07:35No way.
01:07:36Way.
01:07:36Long way, but...
01:07:39Way.
01:07:41Dad!
01:07:42I can't believe it.
01:07:46You know, it's strange.
01:07:47But I think I can believe it.
01:07:50You can't?
01:07:55Yeah, I, uh...
01:07:57Talked to Joe.
01:07:58He said you two never...
01:07:59Yeah.
01:08:00You know?
01:08:01Yeah.
01:08:03Um...
01:08:03Owen, listen, I'm really sorry.
01:08:06But I lied to you.
01:08:07I just...
01:08:09I thought this would ruin your career.
01:08:11And your mom had promised me...
01:08:13That 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?
01:08:23I know.
01:08:23But it's not an excuse.
01:08:24I know that it's not an excuse.
01:08:25I am so sorry.
01:08:27You had a right to all of those years with your son.
01:08:30Hey, people.
01:08:31Let bygones be bygones.
01:08:35So, are you and mom...
01:08:38Boyfriend 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.
01:09:08The future mayor has stated his position.
01:09:10Your rebuttal?
01:09:12My rebuttal.
01:09:22Is that?
01:09:23The 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.
01:09:33It has.
01:09:37Sarah Watson.
01:09:39Will 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.
01:09:57The election.
01:09:59Joe's video.
01:10:00We 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, no.
01:10:07You can still win this.
01:10:09Nah, the polls are open.
01:10:10Joe's going to win.
01:10:11No, no, I will.
01:10:12I'll go.
01:10:13I 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.
01:10:40Because that's what we do.
01:10:42I'm sorry.
01:10:43Bye.
01:10:46You guys, my video is blowing up.
01:10:50I 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.
01:11:28So you could go to a prestigious college and go to D.C. 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.
01:11:53I can't even look at you.
01:11:55Owen?
01:11:56You know, Mother, I'm not going to lose this race because I'm going to withdraw from it to focus on
01:12:03the 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.
01:12:26Dear friends, I'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.
01:12:41No, no, no, no, no, no, no, he's not.
01:12:43He is not.
01:12:47Everyone, open the news.
01:12:49My video has gone viral.
01:12:53You need to watch Daisy's video right now.
01:12:56Dress is from H&C.
01:12:59Okay, look right there.
01:13:00Zoom in.
01:13:02The lip liner is from Foxy.
01:13:04Make sure y'all click the link in my bio.
01:13:06Carter protected a woman.
01:13:08He'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 on the land.
01:13:19Mom, Dad, guess what?
01:13:21I won.
01:13:21I'm student council president.
01:13:23What?
01:13:24What?
01:13:24That's amazing, buddy.
01:13:25Come here.
01:13:26Come here.
01:13:28You'll win too, Dad.
01:13:29I know it.
01:13:30Yeah.
01:13:34That'll be the results.
01:13:36I, I can't.
01:13:39Okay.
01:13:41Hello?
01:13:44Yeah.
01:13:46Yeah, I'll tell him.
01:13:52How bad is it?
01:13:54The landslide.
01:13:57Congratulations, Mayor Carter.
01:14:00What?
01:14:00Yeah.
01:14:01You 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.
01:14:24I went about it the wrong way, but I never, I never meant to hurt you.
01:14:31I'm so, so sorry.
01:14:34You are my life.
01:14:40Please, forgive me.
01:14:48You don't owe my mother anything.
01:14:52No.
01:14:53But, you'll find this out soon enough.
01:14:59When you become a parent, your entire world becomes about that child.
01:15:05And I know what it's like to not see straight, trying to protect them.
01:15:11And you're going to make plenty of mistakes, too.
01:15:13Trust me.
01:15:15You should forgive her.
01:15:32Now, who wants a victory photo?
01:15:37One, two, three.
01:15:42Oh, you're going to make a great cover story.
01:15:47Oh, I am so sorry.
01:15:49We're renovating right now.
01:15:49We?
01:15:51You 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.
01:16:00Congratulations, the Mary left.
01:16:02One small question that interests our readers.
01:16:06Is it hard for you to work together, live 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, the truth always wins in the end.
01:16:18And who decides what the truth is?
01:16:22Me.
