00:00Ah! I swear I don't know who the father is!
00:04I'm paying you to carry my grandchildren. Tell me who he is!
00:08You're the one who artificially impregnated me. Shouldn't you know who the father is?
00:12Ms. Sinclair, this is an operating room. I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
00:16I'm not leaving until I get answers. Do not lie to me, Jenny! Who is the father?
00:22Ah!
00:23Ms. Sinclair, she's delivering. Please step back.
00:26Okay, Jenny. Time to push.
00:29Ah!
00:31Upon seeing the baby, Jenny felt a warmth and love she couldn't ever imagine.
00:38Ah!
00:40Ah!
00:42No, stop!
00:43This boy is a Sinclair. I'm not going to let you put your dirty hands on him!
00:47Please, my baby! Someone do something! Don't let her take my baby!
00:50Ah!
00:51Second one's coming. Okay, Jenny, I need you to take a deep breath and push!
00:55Oh my God, it hurts so much!
00:57I know. You've got to breathe through the pain. Push!
01:00Oh, a beautiful baby girl!
01:03Okay, Jenny, one more. One more time.
01:06Now push!
01:08Ah!
01:10Oh, it's a boy!
01:16They were the most beautiful little babies she had ever seen.
01:21But Jenny didn't trust the Sinclairs.
01:24She suspected their devious plans for her weren't finished.
01:28Jenny! Jenny! Oh, Jenny!
01:32You need to take those two and run!
01:34I can't leave my firstborn.
01:36It's too late. Aster already left with him.
01:38You need to get out of here before she comes back for these two.
01:41And just like that, Jenny changed her identity.
01:44She was now Quinn Murphy, mother of two.
01:48Jenny left the country determined to protect her babies.
01:52She worked hard to provide for them.
01:55But it wasn't enough.
01:57So she went back to college.
01:59She was always the bright one and graduated early with honors.
02:04But Jenny still felt incomplete.
02:07The thought of her firstborn's well-being haunted her day and night.
02:12Don't let her take my baby!
02:18Beep. Beep.
02:23But now, Jenny was back in town with a new identity and a new job.
02:29Why are we here, Mommy?
02:31Because you were born in this city. We're here to find your lost brother.
02:34Jenny!
02:36I'm so happy to see you, Miss Simpson.
02:38Miss Nora Simpson had been a loyal part of the Monroe family since Jenny was a child,
02:43even when the Monroe business fell apart.
02:46When Jenny's fiancé left her, Miss Simpson stayed by her side.
02:50Jenny! Sammy!
02:53Mommy, is that you?
02:55Jenny was geeky and unimpressive.
02:58Someone who would get easily lost in the crowd.
03:01But Quinn Murphy was the opposite.
03:04She radiated confidence.
03:06Mommy, can we go to the zoo?
03:08I promise I'll take you to the zoo.
03:10But first, Mommy has to go meet with her new boss.
03:13Keep an eye on Denny's jacket. He loses everything.
03:16Oh, no problem.
03:18Good luck today.
03:20I'll have a homemade feast for you when you get home.
03:23Jenny was joining the Roosevelt Hospital as a neurosurgeon.
03:27The same hospital where she gave birth six years ago.
03:36Quinn Murphy.
03:38Welcome to Roosevelt's Neurology Department.
03:41I'm Dean Crawford, head of the surgical department, and your new lead.
03:45Excited to be on board.
03:49I have to ask, with a resume like yours, why Roosevelt?
03:54Why not go to the best of the best?
03:57Ms. Murphy?
03:59Unfinished business, I guess.
04:02Dr. Crawford to surgery. I repeat, Dr. Crawford to surgery.
04:06Duty calls. We'll continue this later, I promise.
04:09Meanwhile, take a look around, make yourself comfortable, and I'll see you in the morning, bright and early.
04:17Denny had left a lucrative position at the National Institute for Medical Research in London to return home.
04:23She was determined to find her firstborn.
04:27I will not let you put your dirty hands on him!
04:30No! Don't let him take my baby!
04:32Jenny wondered if her child was even alive.
04:35The thought weighed heavily on her heart.
04:37Oh! Sorry. You alright?
04:39Oh, I'm sorry.
04:40Denny, what? Did you follow me here?
04:43Who's Denny? I'm not Denny.
04:45Jake, where are you?
04:47Quit playing games and come out right now!
04:52Please, don't let him take me.
04:54Where are you, Jake?
05:00What do you mean my son was kidnapped from the hospital?
05:02Mr. Smith, I can explain.
05:04You can't explain s***!
05:06You had one job.
05:08To look after Jake!
05:10What am I going to tell his mother?
05:12He went to the restroom during his medical check-up and he just disappeared.
05:16Reveal the security footage.
05:18And find my son.
05:20I'm on my way right now.
05:21Yes, sir. I'm on it.
05:22Find Jake!
05:23Or I won't just fire you.
05:25I will kill you myself!
05:28No!
05:37We're just going to eat, then we'll take you back, okay?
05:39They don't let me eat burgers at home.
05:42Denny felt a strange tug of curiosity and hope,
05:45struck by the uncanny resemblance between Jake and Denny.
05:49Could this boy be her firstborn?
05:51Why did you run away like that?
05:53It's not safe to go with strangers.
05:55You're not dangerous, are you?
05:57No, Jake, I'm not dangerous.
05:59I just want to help.
06:01I wish you were.
06:03Where is your mom?
06:06Step away from the child!
06:08Officers, this is all just a big misunderstanding.
06:10All I did was take the kid out for a meal.
06:12I gave you explanations for the station.
06:15You're under arrest for child abduction.
06:17Get this woman out of my sight.
06:19No, please, don't take her away.
06:22Let's go.
06:24She's my mom.
06:26She's my mom.
06:28She's my mom.
06:30She's my mom.
06:32She's my mom.
06:35What have I told you about talking to strangers?
06:38And why were you calling that crazy woman your mom?
06:40Beatrice is your mother.
06:42And you know that.
06:44She hates me.
06:46She's only nice when you're around.
06:50What's gotten into you, bud?
06:55Hi, Beatrice.
06:57Your son's having a rough day.
06:59I think it's best if you don't come around today.
07:01I'll call you later.
07:05Dad, that lady was really nice today.
07:08Could you make the police let her go?
07:12If you promise to behave and take your medications,
07:15I'll let her go.
07:16I promise.
07:18Lance, call the chief and ask him to drop the charges.
07:21You got it, boss.
07:26How could Jake have established such a bond with a stranger so swiftly?
07:31I don't know.
07:39Hey.
07:41Are you all right?
07:43Was everything okay at the hospital?
07:46Come here.
07:50Jenny recounted her stressful day to Miss Simpson.
07:53Running into Jake, the child of the powerful Fred Smith,
07:56with an uncanny resemblance to her own son, Denny.
08:00Arrested for child abduction,
08:02then suddenly being released.
08:05Miss Simpson could tell that Jenny was afraid.
08:09Dr. Murphy to surgery. I repeat, Dr. Murphy to surgery.
08:12An overwhelming sense of fear gripped her like a vice,
08:16as if Miss Sinclair wanted her and her children dead.
08:21We need to talk.
08:23Dr. Crawford, I can explain. It's all just a big mix-up.
08:26That's all been taken care of.
08:28Mr. Smith didn't know you were a doctor in this hospital.
08:31In fact, you're going to be treating Jake from now on.
08:34He'll be here in a moment.
08:36What is Jake being treated for?
08:40He's been coming to this hospital for behavioral issues.
08:43He's been coming to this hospital for mental health issues.
08:47He's been coming to this hospital for behavioral issues and temper tantrums.
08:51And he's prone to violent outbursts.
09:04They're here.
09:06I was worried I would never see you again.
09:08Hi, sweetie.
09:10Mr. Smith, allow me to introduce our new neurosurgeon, Dr. Quinn Murphy.
09:15Fred felt something as he shook hands with her,
09:18but he couldn't quite grasp what it was until finally it hit him.
09:22He had met Quinn before.
09:25Does Fred know more than he was letting on?
09:27Will the truth come out about Jenny's past?
09:30I apologize for the misunderstanding.
09:34My assistant thought you were some random lunatic and not our new doctor.
09:39Quite all right, Mr. Smith.
09:41Hop on up and we'll begin the exam.
09:44We'll leave you two at that.
09:50Will you take me to burgers after the exam?
09:53We'll talk to your dad about it, but first I have to ask you a few questions, okay?
09:58So I read your chart. Outbursts, medications.
10:01Is something bothering you, Jake?
10:06Is everything okay at home?
10:08I just get really mad because of my mom.
10:11She's not really my mom, and she's mean to me when no one's around.
10:16She hates me.
10:18All right, Jake, I believe you.
10:20I'm going to ask you an important question, and I want you to answer it honestly.
10:24Can you do that?
10:26Does your mother ever hurt you?
10:32Jenny's heart broke upon hearing this.
10:36She knew what she had to do.
10:38She needed to immediately convene with Dr. Crawford
10:42to gauge whether the situation was serious enough to be reported to authorities.
10:48I'll be right back.
10:53Can I speak to you in private?
10:55Is something wrong with my son?
10:57I haven't done any neurological exams on the boy yet, but I just need to speak with Dr. Crawford.
11:02You haven't even examined him yet, and you already need your boss's help?
11:05Doc, is she even competent enough to treat my son?
11:08All right, calm down, Fred. I'm sure everything is...
11:10I need to know. I do not trust just anybody with my son.
11:14Is he okay, Ms. Murphy?
11:16Quinn, it's okay. He's the father.
11:19What's going on?
11:21Jake seems to be under significant stress.
11:24There seems to be something going on at home.
11:26What are you accusing me of, Dr. Murphy?
11:29You think I'm torturing my own child?
11:31No, not you.
11:36Your wife.
11:37I need Dr. Crawford to tell me how to proceed in light of this information.
11:40We are legally required to report all abuse to the authorities.
11:43You're telling me you think my wife is abusive?
11:47I only know what Jake told me.
11:49This is outrageous! How dare this woman throw such allegations against my family?
11:54I will have your medical license revoked.
11:57Don't you care about your son's well-being, Mr. Smith?
11:59I did you a favor by coming to Dr. Crawford.
12:01Maybe I should have just immediately reported you to the authorities.
12:04I should have never dropped those charges against you.
12:06I'm taking my son home.
12:15Jake!
12:18What kind of outfit are you running here?
12:20How can my son go missing twice in two days?
12:23You. You are going to pay for this.
12:26Jenny thought of how much Jake looked like Denny, her son.
12:29Same age, same height, same hair.
12:32It hit her. Jake was her missing son.
12:35And he was being raised by this horrible man.
12:39Fred, please calm down.
12:41I'm sure he's around here somewhere.
12:43I'll alert the facility. We will find him.
12:45Damn right you will. And get this woman out of my sight.
12:48I demand her to be fired.
12:50Let's not be too hasty.
12:52You need to do something.
12:53I will have this place on lockdown if my son isn't found in an hour.
13:00I'm sorry, Quinn.
13:01I'm going to have to suspend you pending an investigation or until we find Jake.
13:05This is wrong and you know it, Dean.
13:07I know, but Fred Smith is not just the president of Rex Corp.
13:11He's our biggest donor.
13:12I'm a senior member of the board.
13:14My hands are tied.
13:15So you just bow down to him every time he decides to throw a temper tantrum?
13:18I am truly powerless here.
13:20And for what it's worth,
13:22I'm sorry.
13:31Attention all staff.
13:32We have a code purple.
13:34Please be on the lookout for a lost child.
13:48Miss Simpson?
13:49Jenny, are you alright?
13:51I just heard there was an emergency at the hospital.
13:53The boy, Jake, he's missing.
13:56Again? Oh dear, I hope they find him.
13:59I'm sure they will.
14:00Fred Smith is a powerful man.
14:02I don't know if Jake's safe with him.
14:04What do you mean?
14:05I'm his mother.
14:07I know I am.
14:09And he needs to be with me and his brother and his sister.
14:11Calm down, Jenny.
14:13I'm outside with the children.
14:15I just rushed here as soon as I heard.
14:18I'll see you soon.
14:22Jenny?
14:29Your mom's coming now.
14:32Sammy.
14:33Sammy, where's Jenny?
14:36Looking for mom.
14:38Jenny!
14:41Jake.
14:43When you stop running away,
14:45you're gonna get in serious trouble.
14:48Let's get you home.
14:50Jake knew he should set the record straight
14:53and stop Fred from taking the wrong boy home.
14:56But he had wanted to get away from his father for so long.
14:59This was his chance.
15:02Jenny!
15:04Jenny!
15:08Jenny!
15:10I'm not Jenny.
15:11Come back to the car right away.
15:13You can't just wander off.
15:16I'm not Jenny.
15:22Thank you for coming, Miss Simpson.
15:25Were they behaved today?
15:27For the most part.
15:32But Jenny had no idea that her firstborn son,
15:35the one that was taken from her,
15:37was sitting in her car instead of the child she'd raised all these years.
15:41But what would happen to Denny
15:43now that he was under the care of that terrible man?
15:46And worse yet,
15:47what would Fred do when he found out who Jenny really was?
