Marcus: Eleanor, please step back.
Eleanor: You are taking her side?
Marcus: I am trying to prevent a lawsuit in my lobby.
Eleanor: I own this lobby!
Maya: Actually, the hotel is now part of the trust fund.
Eleanor: What trust fund?
Maya: The one my father set up for me.
Eleanor: That is impossible. He left everything to me.
Maya: He left you the house in the Hamptons.
Eleanor: Just the summer house?
Maya: And a monthly allowance.
Eleanor: An allowance? I am a billionaire's widow!
Maya: You were a billionaire's wife. Now you are just a beneficiary.
Eleanor: I will contest this fake document.
Maya: It is fully notarized.
Eleanor: You forged his signature.
Marcus: Let me see the papers, Maya.
Maya: You can look, but do not give them to her.
Marcus: I won't.
Marcus took the heavy legal packet, adjusting his glasses as he scanned the first page.
Eleanor: Well? Tell her she is going to jail.
Marcus: Eleanor...
Eleanor: What is it?
Marcus: This bears the official seal of Sterling and Associates.
Eleanor: Sterling is in on it!
Marcus: It also has Arthur's signature. I would recognize it anywhere.
Eleanor: He was sick! He wasn't in his right mind.
Maya: He was perfectly lucid.
Eleanor: He had dementia.
Maya: No, he had heart failure. His mind was sharp until the end.
Eleanor: You manipulated him on his deathbed.
Maya: I didn't even know he was wealthy until yesterday.
Eleanor: Oh, please. You smelled the money.
Maya: My mother raised me in secret to protect me from you.
Eleanor: From me?
Maya: She knew how ruthless you were.
Eleanor: Your mother was a homewrecker.
Maya: My mother was his first wife.
A murmur ran through the crowd, several people holding their phones closer to catch the drama.
Eleanor: They divorced thirty years ago.
Maya: But he never stopped caring about us.
Eleanor: He paid you off to stay away.
Maya: He paid for my education. He bought our house.
Eleanor: Using my money!
Maya: It was his family business.
Eleanor: I helped him build this empire.
Maya: You spent his empire on private jets and charity galas.
Eleanor: I maintained our social standing.
Maya: You drained the accounts. That's why he changed the will.
Eleanor: Give me those papers, Marcus.
Marcus: I can't do that, Eleanor.
Eleanor: I demand you hand them over right now.
Marcus: According to this, Maya is the new majority shareholder.
Eleanor: That means nothing until a judge signs off.
Maya: A judge signed off this morning.
