The Ultimate Legacy

Synopsis: An entitled young man with wanderlust must prove himself worthy of a new stipulation in his grandmother's will after her passing.

Miss Sally,

you asked me to remind you

when we were 30 minutes out.

Oh, so I did.

Well...

You will look after him,

won't you?

Of course you will.

Oh, you always have.

Ma'am, she's here.

Come in.

.Anderson has arrived.

I hear, um, St. Thomas is just

lovely this time of year.

First things first, shall we?

All right.

Tell Mr. Colby

we're making every effort

to settle his father's

estate expeditiously.

I don't how much longer I can

keep him leashed before he sues.

You might consider replacing

his leash with a choke chain.

I take threats seriously.

Here you go, Kelly.

Thank you so much.

- Well, take care.

- Thanks.

Why, Kelly,

you look lovely!

Thank you, miss Sally.

It's so wonderful

to see you again.

And that's for the office.

So, tell me, have you found

Mr. right yet?

Still looking.

No keepers yet.

Oh.

Oh, thank you.

I, uh, rode my bike in today.

I...

Oh, miss Sally.

Always a treat!

Yes.

Mr. Hamilton

is expecting you.

Thank you.

- Well, later.

Bye-bye.

I know you don't take cream.

I remembered.

Oh, wonderful.

You do know

Mr. Hamilton is retired.

Miss Sally,

you know that we'd been glad

to come to you.

We enjoy any excuse to

visit Anderson house.

Well, nonsense.

You know I enjoy getting out.

Sister, what do we owe

this honor?

Well, I'm afraid there's

no delicate way to put this.

I've come to make

final arrangements.

Uh, for Anderson house.

I'd like it to go

to my grandson, Joey.

You do know that Joey

can't take care

of Anderson house.

Now, now,

don't be so hard on the boy.

Besides, I'm afraid

there's no time for debate.

You see, I have been told...

That I have less than a month.

Excuse me?

This comes as quite a shock.

Joey can't possibly

manage Anderson house.

Ted, Anderson house

doesn't need Joey.

Why, hawthorne, Claudia, and

Oscar handle the day to day,

but Joey does need

Anderson house,

and he is our only link

to the family legacy.

Your wishes

will be fulfilled.

Thank you.

Then the rest

is merely details.

Everything is here.

My final request of you

is that you make it legal.

It's not

going to be easy.

Thank you, Ted.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Miss Hastings:

Ah, I'll see you out,

miss Sally.

Oh, that won't be

necessary, darling.

Oh, and, uh,

when you do find a keeper,

make sure he can keep up.

I'm almost there.

Can you give me a biner?

Yeah.

- Hey, Joey.

- Yeah?

I think

we got company, man.

Oh, thanks, lino.

Hey, lino, can you lower me?

Lowering.

On command?

I wish.

I thought about it, though.

Who is this guy?

I don't know. Kgb?

You serious?

No, I'm not serious.

I can't ever tell if

you're telling the truth.

Dude, just stop talking.

- Mr. Anderson.

- Yeah.

I'm ulrik keel.

Okay.

You're needed

at Anderson house.

Nobody called me.

Your phone has been

disconnected.

My phone's been disconnected.

What's going on here?

Mr. Anderson, your

grandmother has passed away.

Oh.

Uh, hey, guys,

can you...

Can you drive the jeep back

to the cabin for me?

Thanks.

Who are you exactly?

Your grandmother

and I are...

Were very close.

I'm here to take you home.

Yeah. Let's go.

Hey, lino.

Ohh!

Chloe:

Ohh! Oh. Ohh.

Hey, hey, hey, are my

kids making messes again?

Yes, we are!

Hello.

Oh, hi, Ted.

Uh, yes, he's right here.

Hi, Ted.

Yeah, yeah.

No. I just got your text now.

Yeah, of course, of course.

I'll be right there.

Okay, bye.

You have to go now?

I'm sorry.

Alexia:

I'm sorry.

I'll be back soon.

You better be.

Jason, thank you

for joining us.

Of course.

Miss Sally mae

Anderson was my first referral.

And many famous personalities.

More humanitarian work

was done around the dining room

table of Anderson house

than any boardroom in the world.

Sadly, she passed away.

She left her grandson a

significant monetary legacy

with a few stipulations.

That sounds familiar.

Hm.

Poppy, why did you

call us in here?

I didn't know miss Sally other

than what I heard from you.

Or that she had a grandson.

We need your help.

Angelica, you and Kelly

will handle the legal side.

Jason, I know that you

have a foundation to run

and that you're very busy,

but I have a unique request.

I'd like you to be just

a little more... hands on.

We know you three can do this.

I'll do my best.

Uh, Mr. Stevens,

I look forward

to working with you.

Likewise.

Just call me Jason.

Okay.

Jason, I'd like you

to be at the funeral

so you can help Joey understand

his new circumstances.

Once you read the documents,

you'll understand.

Oh, I'm sure I will, poppy.

Don't you ever call me

that in public.

Never. Poppy.

Now get out of here.

Angelica:

Entitled "cornerstones,"

which she learned from our

mutual friend, red Stevens.

"If I am to dream,

let me dream magnificently.

Let me dream grand and lofty

thoughts and ideals

that are worthy of me

and my best efforts."

Oh, dear.

Ma'am, can I help you?

Why, yes, yes.

I have a flat tire.

Yeah, I see that.

I have no idea

where the, uh, the Jack is.

I have never changed

a tire in my life.

Well, neither have I,

but no worries,

- I'll just search it.

- Okay.

Where do you find

the Jack on a...

Right.

Can I borrow your phone?

Yes, yes, my phone.

It's right here.

Okay, well,

so much for that.

Where were you headed?

A funeral.

Nearer, my God, to thee

nearer to thee

e'en though it be a cross

that raiseth me

I thought you were going

to pick the kid up?

Dropped him off

to get his bike.

Ahh.

Nearer, my God, to thee

nearer, my God, to thee

nearer to thee

ahhhh...

...men

Gus:

Miss Sally mae Anderson

lived an incredible life.

She would want us

to celebrate her memory.

But most of all,

she would want us

to honor her legacy

by embracing the future

with the same respect, love,

hard work, and wisdom

that are the foundation

of Anderson house's

many successes.

You must be Hamilton.

It's "Mr. Hamilton" to you.

Okay, Mr. Hamilton,

I'm Joey.

I know who you are.

All right, I understand

that my grandmother

trusted the execution of

the estate to your firm.

He's all yours.

Well,he's charming.

We'll be

handling all the legal affairs

regarding the estate.

Just tell me

what I need to do.

We'll meet in two hours.

Oscar will show you

to your room.

I know where my room is.

Can you tell me

what's going on here?

We'll see you

in two hours.

Before we go to my room,

there's someone we need

to take care of.

Thanks, buddy.

All right.

Just tell me what I need to sign

so I can leave.

Unfortunately, Mr. Anderson,

it's not that simple.

Angelica will fill you in

all the legalities,

and Jason Stevens here will

handle everything else.

Joey, hi, I'm alexia.

I'm Jason's wife.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

- Bye.

- See you later.

I'll see you at home.

Bye, baby girl.

I'll see you later, okay?

I truly am sorry

for your loss.

Wait a second,

miss Hastings.

I'm the only person

at this meeting

who's an heir to
