Evelyn: Clara? What are you doing at my front door? And who are these people?
Clara: Hello, Evelyn. Or should I say... stepmother of the year?
Evelyn: You look ridiculous in that waitress uniform. Get off my porch before I call the security guards.
Richard: Don't bother calling security, Mrs. Montgomery. The Dallas Police Department is right behind us.
Evelyn: What is the meaning of this? Who are you?
Richard: My name is Richard Vance. Three years ago, I adopted a child named Maya from the Sunrise Adoption Agency.
Evelyn: I... I don't know what you're talking about. I have nothing to do with any adoption agency.
Clara: Really? Because your notary stamp is right here on the fake surrender papers, Evelyn!
Evelyn: That's a forgery! Clara is unstable, officers! She's been off her medication since her baby died at birth!
Officer Miller: Ma'am, we have a warrant signed by a state judge to inspect your financial records and personal safe.
Evelyn: A warrant? On what grounds?
Richard: On the grounds of human trafficking, falsifying legal documents, and grand larceny of a multi-million dollar trust fund!
Evelyn: You can't search my home! This is private property!
Officer Miller: Step aside, ma'am. Search team, move in.
Clara: You told me my baby died in my arms while I was asleep, Evelyn! How could you be so cruel?
Evelyn: Your father left everything to you! Everything! I spent twenty years taking care of him, and I got nothing!
Clara: So you stole my daughter to steal my inheritance?
Evelyn: You were too weak to raise a child anyway! I did that baby a favor by putting her in a wealthy home!
Richard: You used my family's grief to cover up your crime! You took money from me and stole a life from her!
Officer Miller: We found the original offshore bank records in the safe, detective. Wire transfers from Dr. Miller's account straight to Mrs. Montgomery.
Evelyn: It was a loan! It was just a private business loan!
Officer Miller: Evelyn Montgomery, you are under arrest for conspiracy, adoption fraud, and child trafficking. Put your hands behind your back.
Clara: Enjoy the prison cell, Evelyn. It's much smaller than this mansion.
