Clara: Father, do something! Don't just stand there!
Arthur: Mark, as the CEO of Vance Holdings, I strongly advise you to take a breath.
Arthur: Whatever personal disputes exist, they can be settled in arbitration, behind closed doors.
Mark: Personal disputes? Your daughter stole medical funds meant for my dying wife!
Arthur: Sarah was never your legal wife, Mark. You two were separated for three years while you built your executive profile.
Mark: We were separated because I was working ninety hours a week here to pay her cancer treatment bills!
Mark: And Clara promised me her family's trust fund was matching my payments to the specialized hospital in Houston!
Arthur: A misunderstanding of financial terms, nothing more.
Lily: It wasn't a misunderstanding! The mean lady came to the hospital room with police!
Lily: She took Mommy's phone so she couldn't call you!
Mark: You took her phone?!
Clara: She was constantly calling you, distracting you before big board meetings!
Clara: Every time you spoke to her, you wanted to run back to Texas! I had to secure our alliance!
Mark: You didn't secure an alliance. You committed wire fraud and extortion!
Arthur: Watch your tongue, young man! You have no proof of anything!
Mark: I have bank account statements. I have every transfer confirmation saved on my private cloud server!
Mark: I transferred money to the account Clara specified for the clinic!
Clara: That account was a legal corporate entity managed by Vance Holdings!
Mark: Which means you embezzled over two hundred thousand dollars of my personal money!
Guests: Embezzlement? On top of everything else?
Guests: Someone call the authorities, this is insane!
Arthur: Silence! Clear the room! Security, clear the wedding hall immediately!
Mark: Don't bother. We are leaving right now.
Clara: If you leave, Mark, I will make sure you never work in financial management again in this state!
Mark: Go ahead and try, Clara.
Lily: Daddy, Mia is cold...
Mark: Wrap her in my suit jacket, sweetie. Here, give her to me.
Mark: I've got you both. You're safe now.
Clara: You're throwing away a twenty-million-dollar inheritance for two orphans?!
Mark: They aren't orphans. They have a father.
