Short filmTranscript
00:00What? You heard me.
00:03Neil. Bang.
00:05Why are you here? Are you stalking me? You've got some nerve.
00:08It's about your family, sir.
00:10Lisa Hopkins was suspected of hiring a hitman to take out her own husband?
00:19It is my birthday for crying out loud.
00:22Unless the two of you are going to tell me that you're getting a divorce, I don't want to hear anything.
00:27I'm not divorcing him!
00:29Believe it or not, not everybody marries for money.
00:32Some people marry for love, like us.
00:35One day I'm going to make my loving wife Carrie proud.
00:38But today, it was her hateful grandmother, Lisa's day.
00:42If you want the money, you kneel and beg for it.
00:46And I'll give it to you.
00:49What?
00:51You heard me.
00:53Neil. Bang.
01:00Please, Lisa.
01:03I know you think I'm worthless. Maybe I am.
01:07But none of that matters.
01:09Miss Jane is about to die.
01:12And I will do anything I can to help her.
01:14Please help me. Please.
01:17I'll give you the money.
01:21And you can pay me back by divorcing my granddaughter.
01:27How dare you interfere in my life!
01:29Someone has to.
01:37We won't let anything happen to Miss Jane.
01:40And I'll go visit her now.
01:41I'm here to see Jane Goodwin, please.
01:43Can I see some ID, please?
01:52I'm sorry. I'm afraid she's been moved.
01:55I'm sorry. I'm afraid she's been moved, sir.
01:57Moved? Where?
01:59She's been moved to another hospital. I'll write the address down for you.
02:02But I was just told a few hours ago that she was to have surgery, not that she was being moved.
02:07Actually, it says that her condition got worse.
02:10And her surgery will now cost almost three million dollars.
02:14Three million?
02:17Yes.
02:21But it says here that the bill has already been paid in full.
02:26What?
02:28I don't have three million dollars. There's no way.
02:31The benefactor who paid her medical expenses is the one who had her moved to the new facility.
02:35But who paid for it?
02:37That's confidential. I'm sorry.
02:40I suggest going to this new hospital and asking them.
02:46Okay.
02:48Thanks.
02:51Steven.
02:53Don't be afraid, sir. My name is Sean Drake.
02:56We've met before. A long time ago.
03:03I know you.
03:06My parents are dead because of you.
03:08Sir, please.
03:10You insisted they drive across the country.
03:12They were so concerned with making good time.
03:14They fell asleep at the wheel.
03:16They never even saw that truck that hit them.
03:19I was thrown into an orphanage after that, and that's all your fault.
03:22Why are you here? Are you stalking me?
03:25You've got some nerve.
03:26It's about your family, sir. Your real family.
03:28My real family is dead because of you.
03:31Didn't you hear what I said?
03:33Your grandfather, sir. He sent me.
03:35Excuse me?
03:37My grandfather?
03:39He didn't know what orphanage you were sent to.
03:41He couldn't find you despite how hard he tried.
03:43It seems the files were lost.
03:45Why now?
03:46Why did no one come find me after all these years?
03:49He tried, Steven, for years.
03:51He tried every avenue.
03:52He had a team of experts looking everywhere.
03:54Using AI to age your likeness by 20 years to track you down.
03:58Who is my grandfather, then?
04:00Mr. Winston Gemsworth. He'll be overjoyed to hear the news.
04:03Winston Gemsworth is my grandfather?
04:06One of the richest men in the world is my grandfather?
04:09He's the one that paid for Miss Jane's treatment and had her moved to another hospital.
04:12Look, he wants to see you now.
04:14Let's go. He'll explain everything more.
04:26Steven.
04:27Mr. Gemsworth?
04:29Oh.
04:30Please don't call me that.
04:32You're my grandson.
04:34Oh.
04:36How long I've looked for you.
04:39All my prayers have finally been answered.
04:42You look just like your father.
04:45I do?
04:47You do.
04:48Do you, uh, remember him?
04:51No.
04:52And yes.
04:54Nothing makes sense.
04:56I can't remember his face.
04:59Or mom's.
05:01It's all right, my child.
05:03It was many years ago. You were quite young.
05:06I'm sorry we left you alone for so long.
05:09Come. We have much to catch up on.
05:12Winston shared stories about my parents while I told him about my life.
05:16I couldn't believe I finally had family of my own.
05:20Have you heard of the Sterling Group?
05:23Of course.
05:25It's impossible not to if you live in New York.
05:27Well, as of this afternoon, I own it.
05:29You do?
05:31Indeed. And if you accept, I'd like you to be president.
05:35You want me to be what?
05:37You heard me. Do you accept?
05:40Of course I do.
05:41Great.
05:43Sign here.
05:46You start tomorrow.
05:49Steven, where are you?
05:51It's a long story, Carrie.
05:53But the good news is, everything's going to be okay.
05:55What do you mean, everything's going to be okay?
05:57Not a lot makes sense right now, but you have to trust me on this.
06:00Everything is taken care of. We're going to be okay.
06:03You, me, Miss Jane. It's all going to work out.
06:08I'm worried. It's just so hard to believe.
06:11I'm handling everything. Just give me a few days to get the details worked out,
06:14and I promise I will explain everything.
06:16We will finally be able to live outside your family shadow.
06:20Okay. I trust you.
06:31Wait. What's this?
06:39Lisa Hopkins was suspected of hiring a hitman to take out her own husband?
06:49I could not believe what I was reading.
06:51We were led to believe that Grandpa Hopkins was the one behind all of this.
06:55Lisa could take out her own husband?
06:57I could not believe what I was reading.
06:59We were led to believe that Grandpa Hopkins died of natural causes.
07:02But these files held proof that that was not the case.
07:05Here it was in black and white.
07:07Lisa likely killed her husband to inherit his fortune.
07:12I have to tell Carrie about this.
07:14Then I realized I couldn't.
07:18Not until I knew more.
07:20I needed to get the facts straight.
07:22This could ruin a family. And a marriage.
07:34This is Steven.
07:36Hello, Steven.
07:37Who is this?
07:38I have some information regarding Mr. Hopkins' death.
07:41What do you know?
07:43Who is this?
07:45Happy to tell you.
07:47If you're willing to pay for it.
07:49Yes. Of course. Any price.
07:51Next week. Meet me at Grand Central Station.
07:54How will I find you?
07:56You'll know.
07:57But how?
07:59Pleasure doing business with you.
08:01Especially when it hurts Lisa Hopkins.
08:03Who is this?
08:09Who was the mysterious man on the phone?
08:12What evidence did he have against Lisa Hopkins?
08:15Why did he hate her as much as I did?
