[00:00:01]Please let me come inside.

[00:00:03]>> You will never tell your father that I took this phone.

[00:00:07]Do you understand? [music] >> So, after school Oh my god, she changed the babies.

[00:00:19]>> Karen, she has only been gone for 30 seconds.

[00:00:22]>> I waited 16 years.

[00:00:25]Dear God, [music] please help me.

[00:00:29]Please don't forget.

[00:00:32]>> Eugene, this is one of the hardest conversations I have had to have.

[00:00:38]The company is making major cuts.

[00:00:40]Today will be your last day.

[00:00:44]>> What happened?

[00:00:47]>> I lost my job.

[00:00:53]>> I have waited long enough.

[00:00:56]The rent has not been paid.

[00:00:59]>> Mirabelle?

[00:01:05]Oba.

[00:01:09]Can somebody tell me what is going on?

[00:01:12]>> Madam Karen, the young man lost his job.

[00:01:15]They haven't been able to pay the rent.

[00:01:17]I have no choice.

[00:01:22]>> Listen to me.

[00:01:24]Call me tonight. [music] We're going to find a solution.

[00:01:29]>> You would really help me?

[00:01:31]>> Of course.

[00:01:32]That's what friends are for.

[00:01:41]>> Thank you.

[00:01:42]You don't know how much this means [music] to us.

[00:01:47]>> We'll talk tomorrow.

[00:01:49]>> Do you think she can really help us?

[00:01:52]>> I think she wants to.

[00:01:54]>> Let's pray.

[00:01:59]>> That's Karen, my old friend. I don't like her. She's always showing off.

[00:02:03]I can't believe this is happening.

[00:02:05]>> Why do you hate her so much? She's the one friend trying to help matters.

[00:02:09]>> Mirabelle and her husband lost everything.

[00:02:12]They were carrying their bags on the roadside.

[00:02:16]I want to help them.

[00:02:20]I hope she answers.

[00:02:22]>> She will.

[00:02:30]>> Mirabelle.

[00:02:32]I am glad you called.

[00:02:34]I am going to text you my address.

[00:02:37]My husband and I will see what we can do to help.

[00:02:40]I'm happy you both came.

[00:02:42]Your home is beautiful.

[00:02:43]>> Comfort should be shared.

[00:02:45]>> You've done a lot for us.

[00:02:50]You seem quiet today.

[00:02:52]Just thinking.

[00:02:53]>> Thinking can be dangerous.

[00:02:55]>> [music] >> He's right.

[00:02:59]You start on Monday.

[00:03:02]I won't disappoint you.

[00:03:04]We believe in you.

[00:03:06]>> Thank you.

[00:03:09]This is the key to your new apartment.

[00:03:11]Rent-free for as long as you want.

[00:03:14]You didn't have to.

[00:03:16]>> You're family.

[00:03:21]>> One day I will have all of this, too.

[00:03:32]This house belongs [music] to both of you now.

[00:03:35]Karen, this is too much.

[00:03:39]We went to school together, yet things are still difficult for me.

[00:03:45]God, when?

[00:03:52]Karen always gets everything first.

[00:04:00]I'm leaving for the salon now.

[00:04:07]>> [music] >> Welcome Madame Karen.

[00:04:14]Thank you.

[00:04:16]What style do you want today?

[00:04:20]Madame, you have always been very good to me.

[00:04:24]Thank you. You are my best stylist.

[00:04:27]This salon building belongs to you.

[00:04:30]And my rent is very cheap because of you. So, I want to tell you what your friend said.

[00:04:37]Madame, I know your friend Mirabelle.

[00:04:40]She is not a good friend.

[00:04:44]The other day Mirabelle came here with another woman.

[00:04:48]They were gossiping about you.

[00:04:53]She said she hates you very much.

[00:04:58]I don't think you know my friend Mirabelle.

[00:05:07]You must be mistaking [music] her for somebody else.

[00:05:11]How much do I owe you?

[00:05:14]Madame, please take it.

[00:05:21]I don't understand. My hair stylist has never lied to me before.

[00:05:25]How can Mirabelle be gossiping about me how? I gave her a house, a job, gave her husband a job also.

[00:05:32]>> [music] [music] >> Welcome back, my I Thank you.

[00:05:47]>> You look tired today.

[00:05:50]>> I've been feeling strange lately.

[00:05:59]Could I really [music] be pregnant?

[00:06:02]Edgar, we're having a baby.

[00:06:05]>> Karen, really?

[00:06:06]>> [snorts] >> This is the best news ever.

[00:06:14]>> God has blessed us.

[00:06:17]>> Finally going to be parents.

[00:06:19]>> God answered our prayers.

[00:06:26]Eugene, I'm pregnant.

[00:06:29]>> We're going to have a baby.

[00:06:35]>> Madam Karen, we need to take you to theater immediately.

[00:06:39]She'll be safe, I promise.

[00:06:44]>> Please protect my baby.

[00:06:46]>> Your baby will be safe, madam. [music] >> Karen has always taken the better life.

[00:07:11]From today, my daughter will become rich.

[00:07:20]>> What is this woman trying to do?

[00:07:23]Let me record this.

[00:07:41]Oh my god, she changed the babies.

[00:07:59]She really changed the babies, wait.

[00:08:02]Now my daughter will live like a queen.

[00:08:15]My baby.

[00:08:17]Your daughter is fine, madam.

[00:08:22]>> [music] >> My daughter will never suffer again.

[00:08:35]This is so wrong.

[00:08:39]I have to tell somebody.

[00:08:43]No, no, no, please don't spoil.

[00:08:47]God, please help me.

[00:08:54]God help Karen discover the truth one day.

[00:08:58]Amen.

[00:09:03]Our daughters are so beautiful.

[00:09:07]Yes, very beautiful.

[00:09:13]Everything changed.

[00:09:24]You are such a blessing from God.

[00:09:34]Should I tell her?

[00:09:38]What if nobody [music] believes me?

[00:09:44]>> Madam Karen, I saw something.

[00:09:48]>> What did you see, dear?

[00:09:54]>> Madam Karen, that baby is not your baby.

[00:09:59]>> What are you saying?

[00:10:04]>> I saw her change the babies.

[00:10:07]>> No.

[00:10:08]Mirabel can't do this.

[00:10:14]>> Let's take [music] our daughter home.

[00:10:16]>> Yes.

[00:10:24]>> Our daughter is beautiful.

[00:10:27]>> She will never suffer.

[00:10:30]Our little princess [music] is finally going home.

[00:10:34]>> She deserves the best.

[00:10:40]Our daughter will make us proud.

[00:10:42]>> She already changed our future.

[00:10:49]>> Eugene, I've decided to make you head of our Abuja branch.

[00:10:53]>> Sir, thank you so much.

[00:10:59]>> But your wife just had a baby.

[00:11:01]>> My wife is strong, sir. We'll make it work.

[00:11:11]>> I'll tell Karen to keep an eye on your wife and [music] the baby.

[00:11:15]>> I truly appreciate that, sir.

[00:11:19]>> This Abuja opportunity will change our lives.

[00:11:23]>> Thank you, Jesus, for safe delivery. [music] >> God has been faithful to us.

[00:11:34]Let us pray for our daughter.

[00:11:36]>> Yes.

[00:11:46]May God protect you always.

[00:11:48]>> Amen.

[00:11:55]She is truly a gift from God.

[00:11:58]>> Yes, she is.

[00:12:04]Thank you, Lord, for this blessing.

[00:12:07]>> Amen.

[00:12:12]>> Edgar, my spirit keeps thinking about Mirabel's baby.

[00:12:16]>> Maybe God wants you to check on them.

[00:12:20]>> I want to take baby food and gifts to Mirabel.

[00:12:23]>> That's a good idea.

[00:12:30]I'll miss you and the baby.

[00:12:32]>> We'll be fine.

[00:12:40]>> This new position is a big responsibility.

[00:12:49]>> Welcome, sir.

[00:12:51]>> Thank you, everyone.

[00:12:58]How are you and the baby?

[00:13:00]>> We're fine.

[00:13:04]>> [crying] >> Please take good care of the baby.

[00:13:11]>> She's fine.

[00:13:18]Don't look at me like that.

[00:13:22]You are never going to have had [music] the life that Karen's daughter should have had.

[00:13:28]You think life will be easy for you?

[00:13:31]By the time I finish with you, you will know what it means to live in poverty.

[00:13:38]>> God will continue blessing your kind heart.

[00:13:41]>> A child should never suffer.

[00:13:48]>> Don't worry, I will take care of baby Layla.

[00:13:52]>> Please, her breast milk is in the fridge. Always warm it and check the temperature.

[00:14:16]>> [crying] >> Why is the baby crying like this?

[00:14:22]Where is Mirabel? Why is the front door open? Anyone can walk in here and take the baby.

[00:14:27]>> [crying] >> Who left you crying all alone like this?

[00:14:41]>> [snorts] >> That's better, baby.

[00:14:51]Mirabel, why did you leave your baby crying? Always cries all the time.

[00:14:57]Please, don't mind this baby. I just fed her.

[00:14:59]>> [music] >> This baby cries a lot.

[00:15:03]>> [music] >> Is the front door unlocked, Wei?

[00:15:07]I know. Don't worry, it's safe.

[00:15:11]I brought more baby food and baby things for her.

[00:15:19]Thank you.

[00:15:21]You shouldn't the baby crying alone.

[00:15:25]I was only outside for a short time.

[00:15:31]Edgar, every time I go there that baby is always crying.

[00:15:36]>> Maybe Mirabel is overwhelmed.

[00:15:41]>> My spirit keeps pulling me toward that child.

[00:15:45]>> Then maybe God wants us to help her.

[00:15:51]>> I want the nanny to help Mirabel with the baby.

[00:15:55]>> That's a good idea.

[00:16:00]>> I want you to help my friend with her baby.

[00:16:04]>> Yes, madam.

[00:16:08]>> I brought someone to help you with the baby.

[00:16:12]>> A nanny?

[00:16:18]>> She will help you take care of the baby.

[00:16:21]>> I will take good care of her.

[00:16:24]>> Thank you.

[00:16:27]Poor poor little angel.

[00:16:35]>> The baby should never lack anything.

[00:16:38]>> You've really helped us.

[00:16:44]>> Don't worry, baby.

[00:16:46]I'm here now.

[00:16:54]Thank God Madam Karen brought me here for you.

[00:17:05]>> That baby becomes peaceful whenever I carry her.

[00:17:09]>> Maybe God is using you to comfort her.

[00:17:15]>> Isaiah 49:15 says a mother should never forget her child.

[00:17:20]>> Amen.

[00:17:32]>> How is the baby now?

[00:17:34]>> She's much better, madam.

[00:17:44]>> God, please protect this child.

[00:17:52]>> She really loves you whenever you carry her, madam.

[00:17:54]>> [music] >> I feel strangely connected to her.

[00:18:02]Father Lord, please protect every innocent child.

[00:18:05]>> Amen.

[00:18:12]>> Your real mother must be a very kind woman.

[00:18:23]>> Madam, the baby needs more attention.

[00:18:26]That's why Karen brought you here.

[00:18:32]She becomes peaceful immediately you carry her, madam.

[00:18:37]>> I don't know why my heart keeps pulling me toward her.

[00:18:41]God will always protect you, baby.

[00:18:45]>> baby.

[00:18:51]She cries so much these days.

[00:18:57]She mostly cries when madam leaves her alone.

[00:19:01]She becomes peaceful immediately you carry her.

[00:19:09]>> I don't understand this connection.

[00:19:13]Sometimes my heart keeps going back to Lucy.

[00:19:18]>> Then maybe God is trying to tell us something.

[00:19:23]>> I just need to finish before it rains.

[00:19:32]Oh, no.

[00:19:35]The rain is starting.

[00:19:42]Please let me come inside.

[00:19:45]I am sorry.

[00:19:47]>> Stay there. [music] >> Please let me come inside.

[00:19:56]I am cold.

[00:19:58]>> Stay where you are.

[00:20:03]>> Dear God, please help me.

[00:20:07]Please don't forget me.

[00:20:12]You stayed with me.

[00:20:16]Thank you, my friend.

[00:20:23]>> Why >> [music] >> was that dog following you?

[00:20:26]>> I don't know.

[00:20:28]Maybe he likes me.

[00:20:32]>> Lucy, you've been washing since morning.

[00:20:36]>> Mama said I must finish weaving.

[00:20:42]>> Lila, don't behave like that.

[00:20:44]>> I'll make her.

[00:20:54]>> God, please help me know why my mother doesn't love me.

[00:21:01]>> You're very intelligent, Lucy.

[00:21:07]>> I I to become somebody great one day.

[00:21:11]>> Stop wasting time reading books and wash those plates.

[00:21:15]>> Yes, Mama.

[00:21:23]>> Leila, food is a blessing from God.

[00:21:26]>> I don't want it.

[00:21:31]>> Leila, you already have many toys.

[00:21:34]>> But I want the new one, too.

[00:21:41]Psalm 27 says the Lord is my light and my salvation. Amen.

[00:21:52]>> Lucy, why are you washing all these clothes alone?

[00:21:56]>> Mama asked me to wash them.

[00:22:03]>> Leila, this is the third complaint this week.

[00:22:07]>> But Mama, we were just playing.

[00:22:11]>> Leila is intelligent, but she keeps distracting other pupils.

[00:22:15]I'll speak to her.

[00:22:23]Lucy, why aren't you in school?

[00:22:32]Lucy is not very intelligent, so normal school is difficult for her.

[00:22:37]>> Oh.

[00:22:39]>> Lucy, do you like school?

[00:22:42]>> Yes, Mama, very much.

[00:22:44]One day you'll go to school school like [music] this, too.

[00:22:51]One day, you will say, "By God's grace."

[00:22:58]>> Leila, please pay attention.

[00:23:00]>> Sorry, Mom.

[00:23:07]You're smarter than many children in private school.

[00:23:12]God helps me understand quickly.

[00:23:16]Edgar, Lucy doesn't go to school properly.

[00:23:20]>> That child is very intelligent from what I've seen.

[00:23:26]>> God, please help me.

[00:23:28]Please let me go to school.

[00:23:30]Please let my dad have.

[00:23:33]And thank [music] you for current.

[00:23:35]God, please bless Auntie Mirabelle, too.

[00:23:38]Please help her to like me one day.

[00:23:40]Please give her a soft heart.

[00:23:43]I don't want her to be angry with me anymore.

[00:23:47]>> Dad!

[00:23:48]>> My daughter. Oh.

[00:23:53]>> [music] >> I brought something for you.

[00:23:57]>> For me?

[00:24:03]>> On Monday, I am taking you to register in a private school.

[00:24:07]>> A private school?

[00:24:12]Dad, are you serious?

[00:24:14]I'm really going to school?

[00:24:18]Thank you, [music] Dad.

[00:24:20]Thank you so much.

[00:24:22]>> You deserve it, my [music] daughter.

[00:24:30]>> Edgar, don't get me [music] wrong. I love Leila.

[00:24:38]But somehow, I feel deeply connected to Lucy, too.

[00:24:48]Lucy behaves like me. She even looks like me sometimes.

[00:24:58]No matter how much we discipline Lila, she naturally creates chaos everywhere.

[00:25:04]>> I've noticed it, too.

[00:25:10]>> Lucy, go to your room.

[00:25:13]I want to talk to your father.

[00:25:17]>> Yo.

[00:25:20]>> I hope Dad is right.

[00:25:23]I hope I really get to go to school.

[00:25:28]>> What do you mean you want to register her in a private school?

[00:25:32]>> Exactly what I said.

[00:25:33]>> Can we even afford that?

[00:25:36]>> We are still living in this bungalow.

[00:25:38]Lucy is our daughter.

[00:25:40]She deserves a good education.

[00:25:42]I have been working extra shifts for this.

[00:25:46]Our education comes [music] first.

[00:25:49]>> So, we will continue living in this bungalow.

[00:25:51]You want to spend all that money on school.

[00:25:55]I thought we were moving to a bigger house.

[00:25:58]You know what?

[00:26:00]You are right.

[00:26:01]Lucy deserves a good education.

[00:26:04]Why don't you send me the money and I will register her myself.

[00:26:09]>> Thank you.

[00:26:10]>> Of course, Eugene. I'm happy to help.

[00:26:12]>> I was actually thinking of staying until Monday.

[00:26:14]>> That's no problem at >> But if you can register her for me, I can return to Abuja on Sunday.

[00:26:18]The school fees are ready.

[00:26:21]I am sending everything to you now.

[00:26:24]Please make sure Lucy is registered first thing Monday morning.

[00:26:27]>> Don't worry.

[00:26:28]>> I'm heading out now. Safe travels.

[00:26:32]>> Private school?

[00:26:35]Not a chance.

[00:26:38]Sometimes I worry [music] that something happened in that hospital.

[00:26:43]Something happened [music] in the hospital.

[00:26:47]Yes.

[00:26:48]But I wasn't completely sure before.

[00:26:51]>> And you never told me.

[00:26:57]>> I can't help but feel that Lucy is my baby, but I beg God for forgiveness to claiming.

[00:27:03]>> My dear, I feel the same. I'm not connected to Layla as I should.

[00:27:07]>> Maybe we are wrong. Maybe because Lucy's mom is cruel to her, we are naturally trying to protect her.

[00:27:14]>> In time, God will reveal it to us.

[00:27:18]>> I don't want to accuse anybody wrongly.

[00:27:21]>> And you [music] won't.

[00:27:26]But if God is [music] revealing something to you, then we should pay attention.

[00:27:31]>> You really [music] believe me?

[00:27:36]>> I will always [music] respect your decision.

[00:27:39]>> Thank you.

[00:27:46]>> I already sent the school money to your mother.

[00:27:49]Tomorrow, she will register you.

[00:27:54]I have to go back to Abuja [music] today.

[00:27:58]>> I'll miss you, princess.

[00:28:00]>> Lucy, why do you look sad?

[00:28:02]>> Nothing, Dad.

[00:28:06]>> Enjoy your new [music] phone.

[00:28:13]>> Go and bring me that phone.

[00:28:16]>> The phone Dad gave me?

[00:28:17]>> Now.

[00:28:23]>> Here it is.

[00:28:25]>> Good.

[00:28:31]>> You will never tell your father that I took this phone.

[00:28:35]Do you understand?

[00:28:37]>> Yes.

[00:28:41]>> And another thing, you are not going to any private school.

[00:28:50]>> But dad said tomorrow.

[00:28:52]Dad said you would register me.

[00:28:59]>> If you tell your father that I did not register you, you will regret it.

[00:29:02]>> Yes.

[00:29:04]>> If you tell him anything that happens in this house, you will regret it.

[00:29:09]>> Dad was so happy.

[00:29:13]I wish he knew.

[00:29:21]Dinner is ready.

[00:29:30]Can I have some, too?

[00:29:32]>> Have what?

[00:29:35]Go away from here.

[00:29:39]>> God, please bless my mom, Karen.

[00:29:41]I don't know why, but every time she comes to visit, she's always kind to me.

[00:29:46]Please keep her [music] safe wherever she is.

[00:29:49]Please bless my dad, Eugene.

[00:29:52]He works very hard for us.

[00:29:55]Please help him and bring him home safely from Abuja.

[00:30:03]Thank you for today.

[00:30:05]Please forgive me, May.

[00:30:07]>> When was the last time you ate?

[00:30:09]>> Yesterday.

[00:30:13]>> See, that is not okay.

[00:30:18]Here.

[00:30:20]>> Thank you.

[00:30:21]>> Friends help each other.

[00:30:29]Lucy, what subjects do you enjoy most?

[00:30:32]>> I love mathematics [music] and English, Ma.

[00:30:37]>> You're a very intelligent girl, Lucy.

[00:30:40]>> Thank you, ma.

[00:30:50]>> You're finally back.

[00:30:52]>> Abuja stressed me seriously.

[00:30:56]Living in Abuja and Lagos at the same time is not easy.

[00:31:01]>> We'll make it work.

[00:31:04]I'm not happy with how Karen keeps interfering with Lucy.

[00:31:09]>> She only wants to help.

[00:31:14]>> Lucy is not our biological daughter.

[00:31:18]>> What?

[00:31:20]What do you mean Lucy is not our daughter?

[00:31:23]>> I changed the babies in the hospital.

[00:31:28]>> Why would you do something like that?

[00:31:33]>> Because I was tired of always being beneath Karen.

[00:31:42]>> That child would still have gone to private school with us.

[00:31:45]>> You don't understand my vision.

[00:31:50]>> So, Leila is actually my biological daughter?

[00:31:54]>> Yes.

[00:32:00]>> How do we come out of this mess?

[00:32:03]>> We'll say there was a mistake in the hospital.

[00:32:09]Once we say there was a hospital mistake, nobody will blame us.

[00:32:13]>> This is too dangerous.

[00:32:19]Lucy has suffered for something she knows nothing about.

[00:32:24]>> She is not my daughter.

[00:32:29]>> They already deprived her of inheritance without knowing.

[00:32:37]Just try to be kinder to Lucy.

[00:32:40]>> I can never love her.

[00:32:46]Her mother took everything that belonged to me.

[00:32:49]>> Karen never stole from you.

[00:32:57]>> If you ever expose this secret, you will go down with me.

[00:33:04]>> I still cannot believe you changed innocent babies.

[00:33:10]>> And I would do it again.

[00:33:19]>> I will respect your decision for now on.

[00:33:25]But Lucy is still an innocent child.

[00:33:34]Whatever happens, Karen and Edgar must never suspect us.

[00:33:40]>> They will never know.

[00:33:44]>> She really looks like Karen.

[00:33:46]Oh God, I can't do this. She's just an innocent child.

[00:33:53]>> Good night, Daddy.

[00:33:55]>> Good night, Lucy.

[00:33:58]>> God, please bless Mommy Karen for helping [music] me.

[00:34:09]>> That child is innocent, Mirabelle.

[00:34:12]>> She is not my concern.

[00:34:19]Everything Karen touches becomes perfect.

[00:34:22]>> That is not Karen's fault.

[00:34:29]Lucy prays for Karen every night.

[00:34:32]>> Then Karen can adopt her.

[00:34:38]>> Because she did nothing wrong.

[00:34:45]>> One day Karen will discover the truth herself.

[00:34:48]>> And that day will destroy everybody.

[00:34:55]Forgive us, Lucy.

[00:34:59]>> Sorry.

[00:35:01]>> Maybe poor people should learn how to walk properly.

[00:35:07]>> My assignment is inside there.

[00:35:10]>> Then buy her another one.

[00:35:11]>> She's about to cry.

[00:35:16]>> Lila, Vivian, and Joy, this behavior must stop.

[00:35:19]>> My parents donate so much money to this school for anybody to threaten me.

[00:35:23]>> She says this every [music] time.

[00:35:25]And nobody can do anything.

[00:35:28]>> Lila, another complaint again?

[00:35:30]>> Students in this school are too emotional.

[00:35:32]They should stop acting scared all the time.

[00:35:36]>> I don't understand why you enjoy humiliating.

[00:35:39]>> They're poor and annoying.

[00:35:40]>> That is not how I raised you.

[00:35:45]>> You skipped school preparation for this?

[00:35:48]>> It was just a party.

[00:35:49]>> Lila, your behavior is becoming dangerous.

[00:35:53]>> So after school today, where are we going?

[00:35:56]>> We're going shopping first.

[00:35:58]>> [laughter] >> And after shopping?

[00:36:00]>> Beach party tonight.

[00:36:03]>> Lila, Vivian, and Joy, focus on this lesson immediately.

[00:36:06]>> We already know all this.

[00:36:08]>> Show me the silver heels again.

[00:36:10]>> [sighs and gasps] >> Tonight is going to be crazy.

[00:36:13]>> My presentation topic is >> Can somebody translate what she's saying?

[00:36:17]>> She sounds terrified.

[00:36:19]>> Maybe scholarship students should stop presenting.

[00:36:22]>> That is enough.

[00:36:23]All three of you report to the principal's office immediately.

[00:36:27]>> My parents will settle everything like always.

[00:36:29]She's actually shaking. Nobody can suspend us.

[00:36:34]This school is tired of your bullying and disrespect. My parents pay too much money to this school for all this drama.

[00:36:40]She's angry again.

[00:36:41]She can't do anything.

[00:36:44]Karen, this situation is becoming impossible.

[00:36:48]What happened this time?

[00:36:50]She humiliated another scholarship student again.

[00:36:54]Lila, why do you enjoy hurting people?

[00:36:56]Poor people cry too much.

[00:36:59]That's why nobody respects them. [music] Madam Karen asked me to bring you home immediately.

[00:37:05]I'm not going home yet.

[00:37:07]Let's go to the designer store first, and then we're posting everything online.

[00:37:12]This party is better than last weekend.

[00:37:14]Isla always throws the craziest parties.

[00:37:17]My parents are too rich to care.

[00:37:20]>> [laughter] >> Lucy, why are you crying again?

[00:37:25]I just want to go to school like other children.

[00:37:28]You are smarter than most of them already.

[00:37:32]Auntie Mirabel says education is a waste for somebody like me.

[00:37:35]She should not speak to you like that.

[00:37:38]Sometimes I feel like they are not my real parents.

[00:37:42]God, please show me who I really am. If Mirabel and Eugene are truly my parents, help me understand why they hate me.

[00:37:52]So now you sit outside crying for attention? I was only praying. Prayer will not change your life. Instead of helping inside this house, you are here behaving like a victim. I already finished cleaning the house. Then go inside and wash the dishes again.

[00:38:04]My mommy hates me sometimes.

[00:38:06]But your daddy My daddy always tells me to pray and trust God.

[00:38:10]Your daddy sounds like a good man.

[00:38:13]He works in Abuja most of the time.

[00:38:16]If he stayed home more, maybe my mommy would treat me better.

[00:38:20]Lucy, where is your mommy?

[00:38:22]My mommy traveled to Abuja to see my daddy.

[00:38:25]>> She left you here alone?

[00:38:29]Do you still study even though you are not in school?

[00:38:32]>> Yes, ma. I study every night after praying.

[00:38:34]>> She is very intelligent.

[00:38:36]You wrote all these answers by yourself?

[00:38:39]>> Yes, ma. I study from old textbooks.

[00:38:42]Lucy learns faster than students in real school.

[00:38:48]>> These answers are very correct.

[00:38:51]>> I study every night after praying.

[00:38:54]>> You deserve to be in school, Lucy.

[00:38:57]Lucy, you look so much like somebody I know.

[00:39:01]>> Really, ma?

[00:39:07]Ma, are you my mom?

[00:39:10]>> That is what I want to find out.

[00:39:17]>> I always see you in my dreams.

[00:39:19]>> I have also [music] been feeling something strange in my heart.

[00:39:23]>> If you are my mom, how come you do not know?

[00:39:27]>> My dear, I do not know yet.

[00:39:31]But by the grace of God, we are going to [music] find out.

[00:39:37]Lucy, would you trust me if I asked you to come somewhere with me [music] tomorrow?

[00:39:42]>> Yes, ma.

[00:39:43]>> I just feel like God is trying to show me something important.

[00:39:47]Do not be afraid, Lucy.

[00:39:50]>> By the [music] gods, go we and we have to lose.

[00:39:57]>> Lucy, has anybody ever told you that you look Ethiopian?

[00:40:01]>> No, ma.

[00:40:02]>> You remind me so much of myself.

[00:40:07]>> When I pray, I always see your face.

[00:40:11]>> God may be trying to reveal something to both of us.

[00:40:17]>> Sometimes I feel like God is trying to tell me something, [music] too.

[00:40:22]>> What do you feel, Lucy?

[00:40:23]>> That I belong somewhere else.

[00:40:27]>> You have been a good friend to Lucy [music] from the beginning.

[00:40:30]>> She is my best friend.

[00:40:33]>> May God bless you for always standing beside [music] her.

[00:40:37]Karen, where are your parents?

[00:40:39]>> They live down the road.

[00:40:41]>> Tomorrow I would like to meet them.

[00:40:44]>> Okay, Ma.

[00:40:48]>> Karen, we can do the DNA test today [music] instead of waiting.

[00:40:52]>> You also feel something is wrong?

[00:40:54]>> Yes.

[00:40:56]So, this is Lucy.

[00:40:59]>> Yes.

[00:41:02]>> She looks so much like you, Karen.

[00:41:06]Karen told me about Lucy's friend.

[00:41:09]>> So, we bought clothes for both girls.

[00:41:11]>> Me, too?

[00:41:17]I have never worn clothes like this before.

[00:41:21]We look beautiful.

[00:41:23]>> Yes.

[00:41:24]Both of you are beautiful girls.

[00:41:28]>> Karen, she really looks like family.

[00:41:31]>> I know.

[00:41:33]Do I really look okay?

[00:41:37]>> You are a very beautiful girl, Lucy.

[00:41:40]>> Thank you, Ma.

[00:41:41]I told you already.

[00:41:47]>> Lucy, are you afraid?

[00:41:49]>> A little.

[00:41:51]>> Do not [music] worry, we are with you.

[00:41:57]>> Ma, what exactly are we doing here?

[00:42:00]>> We just want to confirm something.

[00:42:01][music] >> And no matter what happens, you are safe with us.

[00:42:07]So, you would like to carry out a DNA relationship test?

[00:42:10]>> Yes, doctor.

[00:42:17]>> This will only take a few minutes.

[00:42:20]>> Will it hurt?

[00:42:22]>> No, my [music] dear.

[00:42:26]>> You slapped another student today. Do you know who my parents are?

[00:42:32]>> That's enough, young lady.

[00:42:36]>> He deserved it.

[00:42:37]>> You cannot continue behaving like this.

[00:42:43]>> No, you cannot punish me.

[00:42:45]>> Your father already gave permission.

[00:42:48]>> Do you know who my father is?

[00:42:50]>> That is enough, Leila.

[00:42:53]>> Dad, they are threatening me.

[00:42:56]>> Yes, Leila.

[00:42:57]>> Tell them they cannot touch me.

[00:43:00]>> Yes, Leila.

[00:43:02]I told them to punish you.

[00:43:04]>> Dad, what?

[00:43:05]>> You must apologize and change your behavior.

[00:43:10]>> You heard your father.

[00:43:12]>> No, I'm Digba.

[00:43:16]>> You need to calm down, miss.

[00:43:20]>> Stop looking at me.

[00:43:22]>> You should have behaved better.

[00:43:25]>> My dad has never treated me like this before.

[00:43:30]You people cannot do this to me.

[00:43:33]>> Miss, please cooperate.

[00:43:34]>> [music] >> This punishment is for your own good.

[00:43:40]>> No.

[00:43:43]No, I cannot stay here.

[00:43:46]>> You should have thought about that before behaving badly.

[00:43:51]>> Mirabel, why did you not tell me you are coming? Where is my daughter?

[00:43:54]>> I didn't have to tell you, please.

[00:43:58]>> So, what exactly brought you here?

[00:44:02]Where is Lucy?

[00:44:03]>> She is at home.

[00:44:05]>> You left that little girl alone in Lagos?

[00:44:11]>> Call Lucy right now.

[00:44:13]>> She does not have a phone anymore.

[00:44:18]>> What do you mean she does not have a phone?

[00:44:20]>> I took it from her. She does not deserve it.

[00:44:24]>> You collected the iPhone 11 Pro Max I bought for Lucy?

[00:44:28]You abandoned Lucy alone.

[00:44:30]>> She is not my biological child.

[00:44:33]>> She She was still a baby when you switched them.

[00:44:36]>> And you were too busy to notice.

[00:44:38]>> YOU RUINED HER LIFE.

[00:44:40]>> She has everything now. You're just jealous.

[00:44:44]>> You left Lucy all alone.

[00:44:47]>> She survives every other time.

[00:44:49]>> ONE DAY SOMETHING TERRIBLE could happen to that girl.

[00:44:54]You stopped her education.

[00:44:57]>> She does not need school. She is somebody's child.

[00:45:05]>> I work day and night to support this family.

[00:45:08]>> And?

[00:45:10]>> And you were stealing an innocent child.

[00:45:15]She may not be your biological child.

[00:45:18]But she is still my daughter.

[00:45:25]>> Come and eat, Lucy.

[00:45:27]>> All this food is for me, too?

[00:45:30]>> Yes, Lucy.

[00:45:35]>> No one has ever treated me like this before.

[00:45:39]>> You deserve to be loved, Lucy.

[00:45:43]You will sleep [music] here tonight.

[00:45:46]>> This room is bigger than our whole house.

[00:45:54]>> The DNA result is confirmed.

[00:45:57]Lucy is your biological daughter.

[00:46:02]The test confirms [music] Karen, you are Lucy's mother.

[00:46:05]>> You're really my mommy?

[00:46:07]>> [gasps] >> Yes, Lucy. He is my baby.

[00:46:13]I missed so many years with you.

[00:46:15]But you were always there for me somehow.

[00:46:19]God kept bringing me close to you.

[00:46:22]>> So, I really belong with you?

[00:46:25]>> You always [music] belong with me.

[00:46:27]>> You are our daughter, Lucy.

[00:46:30]>> [snorts] >> It still [music] feels like a dream.

[00:46:38]>> No, Lucy. You are finally [music] at home.

[00:46:43]>> We need three London tickets.

[00:46:45]>> London? Yes, my papa.

[00:46:52]>> [music] >> You really want me to stay with you?

[00:46:55]>> Forever.

[00:46:56]>> You are our daughter, Lucy.

[00:47:04]>> Mama.

[00:47:05]>> Yes, my baby. [music] >> I always prayed [music] God would show me who my real mother is.

[00:47:18]>> And God answered [music] your prayer.

[00:47:23]>> I still cannot [music] believe this is happening.

[00:47:26]>> This is your new beginning, Lucy.

[00:47:35]>> How are you, Jean?

[00:47:41]I am fine, sir. [music] My wife went to your house to check on Lucy. There was nobody there.

[00:47:56]My wife has gone there two or three times.

[00:47:59]There was no sign of Lucy.

[00:48:05]What do you mean the house was empty?

[00:48:10]Are you serious, sir?

[00:48:13]Lucy is supposed to be there.

[00:48:20]If you want to come to Lagos and look for Lucy, go ahead.

[00:48:25]Take permission from work and find your daughter.

[00:48:32]Thank you, sir.

[00:48:34]I will find my daughter.

[00:48:40]Where is Lucy?

[00:48:42]She ran away.

[00:48:44]You told me she was at home.

[00:48:48]She left before I came back from Abuja.

[00:48:50]YOU ABANDONED HER.

[00:48:52]She is stubborn.

[00:48:57]I AM REPORTING THIS TO the police.

[00:49:00]You will get both of us arrested.

[00:49:03]I would rather go to jail than let my daughter suffer.

[00:49:08]I am going to Lagos tomorrow.

[00:49:10]Why? To find my daughter.

[00:49:16]What about Leila?

[00:49:18]Do not talk to me about Leila.

[00:49:20]She is our daughter.

[00:49:26]People complained about Leila for years.

[00:49:30]I used to wonder how Karin and Edgar could raise a child like that.

[00:49:40]Now I understand.

[00:49:42]Understand what?

[00:49:43]Leila got her character from you.

[00:49:48]Because it is true.

[00:49:50]How can you say that?

[00:49:56]You care more about Lucy than me.

[00:49:59]>> Because Lucy is innocent.

[00:50:01]You are evil, Mirabelle.

[00:50:06]But now I know I will never take Lila as my daughter. Never.

[00:50:11]As for you, consider this marriage over.

[00:50:17]>> Please don't leave angry.

[00:50:19]>> I am going [music] to find Lucy.

[00:50:21]And when I find her, I am bringing her home.

[00:50:28]Lucy, wherever you are, I will find you.

[00:50:36]>> What is the problem?

[00:50:38]>> My daughter is missing.

[00:50:46]>> When was the last time you saw her?

[00:50:49]>> Before I traveled to Abuja for work.

[00:50:53]>> And you reported it immediately upon your return?

[00:50:58]Do you have a photograph of your daughter?

[00:51:01]>> No.

[00:51:07]>> You are reporting your daughter missing and you do not have a single photograph of her.

[00:51:11]>> I work in Abuja most of the time.

[00:51:17]>> We need a photograph.

[00:51:20]Without a photograph, it will be extremely difficult to find her.

[00:51:29]>> What kind of father am I?

[00:51:37]>> What happened?

[00:51:39]>> They cannot help.

[00:51:41]Because you destroyed all our photos, I will never forgive you. You will go to jail.

[00:51:46]They asked for a photograph of Lucy.

[00:51:49]And we do not have one.

[00:51:57]16 years.

[00:52:00]16 years and I do not even have one picture of my daughter.

[00:52:08]The only reason I am still in this house is because I believe Lucy may come back one day.

[00:52:17]>> You want to move me?

[00:52:19]>> [gasps] >> I already lost my daughter.

[00:52:22]>> I am not [music] thinking about anything else right now.

[00:52:29]Where is Leila?

[00:52:31]>> I don't know.

[00:52:37]I thought Karen took Leila to London.

[00:52:40]>> Why would you think that?

[00:52:47]>> Karen, where is Leila?

[00:52:50]>> She's in boarding school.

[00:52:57]>> What boarding school?

[00:52:59]>> You do not need to know.

[00:53:07]>> Just like you told me your daughter was in boarding school.

[00:53:11]>> My daughter is also in boarding school.

[00:53:17]>> That is why I thought Leila was in London.

[00:53:21]>> You think too much and care too little.

[00:53:28]>> Where is my dad?

[00:53:30]>> Sit down.

[00:53:38]>> Where is my dad?

[00:53:42]Where is mom?

[00:53:47]>> There have been repeated reports of bullying, intimidation, and aggressive behavior.

[00:53:57]>> Leila, do you understand why you are here today?

[00:54:01]>> Yes.

[00:54:03]>> This hearing is about your actions and your future.

[00:54:07]>> I never thought I would have a room like this.

[00:54:12]>> You deserve much more than this, my daughter.

[00:54:17]>> I never thought one day you will truly be my mom. I have wished for this all my life.

[00:54:23]>> The same I have wished also you were my baby.

[00:54:27]Sometimes God sends people to tell us the truth even when we are not ready to believe it.

[00:54:38]There was a girl at the hospital once.

[00:54:40]She told me that babies had been switched.

[00:54:47]She told me she had proof.

[00:54:49]She said everything had been recorded on her phone.

[00:54:52]But her phone was damaged, so I didn't believe her.

[00:55:00]>> You know something, Mom?

[00:55:02]It feels like a dream. [music] >> You are not dreaming.

[00:55:07]I am your mother.

[00:55:11]And you are [music] daughter.

[00:55:15]>> I am not sad about the years we lost.

[00:55:19]Because somehow you were always there.

[00:55:25]>> I never understood why I kept coming back to see you.

[00:55:29]No matter how busy life became, something always pulled me back to [music] you.

[00:55:35]Now I know.

[00:55:39]My dad should be here by now.

[00:55:49]Visiting hours are over.

[00:55:52]>> What about my parents?

[00:55:55]>> No one came.

[00:55:59]>> That is impossible.

[00:56:01]My father always comes for me.

[00:56:09]You must have made a mistake.

[00:56:11]>> No mistake was made.

[00:56:13]>> My father never leave me here.

[00:56:22]Can I make [music] a phone call?

[00:56:24]>> Not today.

[00:56:29]>> Did Karen come? [music] >> No.

[00:56:39]Your court review has been scheduled.

[00:56:42]>> My father is coming?

[00:56:49]>> We cannot promise that.

[00:56:52]You need to prepare yourself for the hearing.

[00:57:01]>> My father will come today.

[00:57:11]Did anyone come for me for me?

[00:57:13]>> You need to go inside.

[00:57:19]Leila is currently in a youth rehabilitation program.

[00:57:23]>> You mean she got into trouble?

[00:57:29]>> Leila made some very bad choices.

[00:57:32]Now she has to learn from those mistakes.

[00:57:38]I never thought thought that it would happen.

[00:57:42]Neither did I.

[00:57:47]Mom?

[00:57:49]Yes, my baby.

[00:57:50]Will I ever have to see Mirabel again?

[00:57:53]No one will force you to see anybody.

[00:57:57]That decision will always be yours.

[00:58:05]Then I never want to see her again.

[00:58:08]Not ever.

[00:58:15]Nobody is going to hurt you again.

[00:58:19]As long as I am alive, nobody.

[00:58:23]Mom, I'm sorry I sold the phone you gave me.

[00:58:27]I used the money to buy my basic hygiene, like pads, deodorant, and cream.

[00:58:33]Mirabel didn't buy them?

[00:58:37]No, she didn't see me as human. She actually didn't know when I started my period.

[00:58:42]I'm so [music] sorry we wasn't there for you.

[00:58:49]Thank you.

[00:58:53]Thank you for finding me.

[00:58:59]Mom. What is it? Doris, can Doris come to London one day, too?

[00:59:09]Cary didn't come.

[00:59:15]Dad didn't [music] come, either.

[00:59:22]Please take your seat.

[00:59:29]I thought my parents would be here.

[00:59:32]That somebody would come.

[00:59:39]I thought I could do whatever I wanted.

[00:59:43]I never thought there would be consequences.

[00:59:49]>> Lela Demos, are you sorry for your actions?

[00:59:53]>> Yes, sir.

[01:00:00]>> Lela, the court is ordering you to remain in the youth rehabilitation program for the next 3 years.

[01:00:05]You will continue your education, counseling, and rehabilitation activities.

[01:00:10]>> Of course, Doris will come.

[01:00:14]>> I I promised you we would not separate you from your best friend.

[01:00:19]>> Tomorrow, we will start making arrangements.

[01:00:24]We are bringing Doris to London, too.

[01:00:27]>> Really?

[01:00:30]Doris is going to scream when she hears this.

[01:00:39]>> You can return to your bunk.

[01:00:49]>> Karen.

[01:00:52]Why didn't you come?

[01:00:58]This is the happiest day of my life.

[01:01:07]Come closer.

[01:01:11]This is our first family picture.

[01:01:17]What if nobody likes me?

[01:01:20]>> Everybody is going to love you.

[01:01:24]Lucy, look at me.

[01:01:27]You are smart, kind, and beautiful.

[01:01:30]Never forget that.

[01:01:34]>> And if anybody gives you trouble, >> tell them your father is very rich.

[01:01:45]>> I love you both.

[01:01:46]>> We love you, too.

[01:01:49]Go make us proud, [music] princess.

[01:01:57]>> Hi. Are you new here?

[01:01:59]>> Yes.

[01:02:00]My name is Emma.

[01:02:02]>> My name is Lucy. Would you like to sit with me during lunch?

[01:02:07]>> I would like that.

[01:02:12]Do you have friends in Nigeria?

[01:02:15]Yes.

[01:02:16]My best friend's name is Doris.

[01:02:22]The best part is that she may be coming to London, too.

[01:02:26]>> Really?

[01:02:26]>> Yes. My parents promised me.

[01:02:31]>> So, how do you like London so far?

[01:02:34]>> I love it.

[01:02:36]Everything still feels new.
