00:32:16What?
00:32:17I know.
00:32:18Chris, what is it you actually do for a living?
00:32:29So you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Morcorp?
00:32:33Kind of.
00:32:34That's so cool.
00:32:35And it's going to stop the wildfires?
00:32:37We hope so.
00:32:40My team, our team has been making some progress this week, but we're supposed to roll it out
00:32:47this weekend, so there's not much time.
00:32:50Geez.
00:32:51I didn't know.
00:32:52You should have told me.
00:32:53I tried.
00:32:54Well, I'm sure you can do it, Chris.
00:32:56I'm rooting for you.
00:32:58You know, I'm not used to having someone at home rooting for me.
00:33:02It's new, but it's nice.
00:34:01I'll be right there.
00:34:22Something wrong?
00:34:23What happened?
00:34:25What happened is...
00:34:28We did it.
00:34:29Oh!
00:34:30We did it.
00:34:35It worked.
00:34:39Margaret, this is going to save lives.
00:34:42Oh!
00:34:43Shoot.
00:34:44I have to go meet with the fire captain.
00:34:47Today's the big test.
00:34:48We have to prove the suppressant works.
00:34:49I'll see you later.
00:34:50Okay.
00:34:59Yes!
00:35:00The fires are going out!
00:35:01We are kicking this fire's ass.
00:35:03I mean, this is a breakthrough in science.
00:35:06We are making history, my friend.
00:35:09Alright, guys.
00:35:10Grab every container we got.
00:35:12Bambi buckets.
00:35:13Tsunami tanks.
00:35:14Get them filled and airborne.
00:35:16We're gonna kill this fire now.
00:35:18Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:38No.
00:35:39We just tested a fire suppressant from Moore Corp.
00:35:42It's superior to that crap you've been sending us.
00:35:45LA is burning.
00:35:46We don't have time for your city hall bullshit.
00:35:48And I don't have time for your insubordination.
00:35:51How much kickback are you making from this, Madam Mayor?
00:35:54How many houses need to burn down in order for you to make a profit off of the bogus chemicals that don't even work?
00:35:59I gave you an order.
00:36:01Load my fire suppressant or you're fired.
00:36:05Good.
00:36:06Fire.
00:36:07Because I will not be responsible for your disaster.
00:36:10Your wish is granted.
00:36:12You're fired.
00:36:16This is the end of Chief Taylor.
00:36:20No.
00:36:21I think this is the end of Mayor Davis.
00:36:23Remember I said it.
00:36:25Get out of here and take this piece of trash with you.
00:36:28Okay.
00:36:29Our deal has changed.
00:36:38One third is not enough.
00:36:41I want a two third cut.
00:36:43I need to make some money off of this thing.
00:36:45Don't you look so glum?
00:36:47I'm gonna make you CEO of Foster Inc.
00:36:51I got a new plan.
00:36:53Come on.
00:36:54The door won't open itself.
00:36:56Congratulations on your victory.
00:37:01I'm so proud of you.
00:37:02Almost victory.
00:37:03The mayor shut us down.
00:37:04She's been colluding with your dad.
00:37:05We're finished.
00:37:06She's the whole city hall to back her up.
00:37:07Hey, don't let them scare you.
00:37:08The bureaucrats like to live in these little protected hives.
00:37:11Once you crack those hives open, they scatter like roaches looking for the nearest drain pipe.
00:37:16Boss, I think your dad set up a board meeting behind your back for tomorrow.
00:37:36Copy that.
00:37:38Great.
00:37:39My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:41So it's so good.
00:37:43My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:45So it seems like we have a common enemy.
00:37:49And?
00:37:50And I'd like to do you the favor of destroying him.
00:37:54How?
00:37:55Do you want me to put you on the board of directors?
00:37:58No, no.
00:37:59I want to be your assistant.
00:38:01What?
00:38:02I'm gonna be your boss?
00:38:05Mm-hmm.
00:38:06I've got an idea.
00:38:08Okay.
00:38:13All right, let's make this fast.
00:38:17Margaret cannot be the CEO of this company.
00:38:19I don't care what the will says.
00:38:21Even the mayor wants Margaret out.
00:38:24Shouldn't Margaret be here to at least speak for herself?
00:38:27Don't be dense.
00:38:28Margaret will be out before she knows what hit her.
00:38:30And Caitlin will be in.
00:38:32Any board meeting without my approval is illegal.
00:38:36You are not authorized.
00:38:38She is fully authorized.
00:38:41What the hell?
00:38:42Not you again.
00:38:43This is a board meeting.
00:38:45Only for employees of Foster Incorporated.
00:38:48Right.
00:38:49Well, why don't you all help me welcome our newest employee?
00:38:52I put Chris on the payroll this morning.
00:38:54He's my new personal assistant.
00:38:56That's strange.
00:38:58Assistant?
00:38:59Of what?
00:39:00Cleaning toilets?
00:39:01Oh, my God.
00:39:03Margaret, this is just so like you.
00:39:06Soling our company with your low-life husband.
00:39:10Well, I'm glad you acknowledged me as Margaret's husband.
00:39:13As I cover our first point today on our agenda.
00:39:16Section 12-3-C.
00:39:19Margaret Foster will inherit Foster, Inc.
00:39:22So long as she is married by the designated date.
00:39:26So, this means that Margaret is now the owner of Foster Incorporated.
00:39:33From now on, you all recall her Madam CEO.
00:39:37What are you going to get me one of those?
00:39:41When you get some class, don't power.
00:39:44We're going to take them out right now.
00:39:48It doesn't change anything.
00:39:49That's right.
00:39:50This company has been hemorrhaging money because of you, Margaret.
00:39:53We will not let you destroy it.
00:39:55And the only people who can take care of that is sitting right here in this room.
00:39:59Me and my brilliant new man.
00:40:03Steel can turn this company around like that.
00:40:07Tell them, honey.
00:40:09Get rid of her and I'll double the company's revenue in four months.
00:40:13Backed by the mayor.
00:40:14My mom.
00:40:15100%.
00:40:17The mayor herself.
00:40:20That's exactly what we need.
00:40:22I like when you take control.
00:40:24Hold on.
00:40:26Margaret and I can also increase Foster Incorporated's revenues.
00:40:30He's going to double the revenue in four months.
00:40:35No one else can mention.
00:40:37Oh, we can.
00:40:38Chris, what are you saying?
00:40:40Stick with me, okay?
00:40:41What I'm about to say is a promise.
00:40:42A guarantee.
00:40:43Mr. Davis, you claim that you can double revenues in four months.
00:40:44Yes, I can.
00:40:45We will increase revenues tenfold.
00:40:46In only one month.
00:40:47Ah, shit.
00:40:48Hey.
00:40:49No one can do that.
00:40:50No one can do that.
00:40:51I don't think you are going to work.
00:40:52It's crazy.
00:40:53We can't make that kind of promise.
00:40:54It's impossible.
00:40:55Margaret, follow my lead.
00:40:56Okay?
00:40:57No one can do that.
00:40:58I don't think you are going to work.
00:40:59It's crazy.
00:41:00Margaret, follow my lead.
00:41:01Okay?
00:41:02This is ludicrous.
00:41:03Okay.
00:41:04How the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company rights?
00:41:05No one can do that?
00:41:06No one can do that.
00:41:07No one can do that.
00:41:08Oh, shit.
00:41:09No one can do that.
00:41:10No one can do that.
00:41:11No one can do that.
00:41:12No one can do that.
00:41:13No one can do that.
00:41:14I don't think you are going to work.
00:41:16We can't make that kind of promise.
00:41:19It's impossible.
00:41:21Margaret, follow my lead.
00:41:23Okay?
00:41:24This is ludicrous.
00:41:26Okay, how the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company revenue?
00:41:32Margaret is a master of outreach.
00:41:34She will set up a strategic partnership with the Moore Corporation.
00:41:38The Moore Corporation has operations in every countryman in the world.
00:41:42They won't even take a phone call from Margaret.
00:41:45Oh, but they already have.
00:41:47In fact, the manager has set up a meeting for Margaret tomorrow.
00:41:53Yeah, that's bullshit.
00:41:54Moore Corp would never work with a nobody like Margaret.
00:41:57You're delusional.
00:41:59Well, there is no harm to let her try.
00:42:02What?
00:42:03You'd better not disappoint us, Margaret.
00:42:06Okay, let's just make this straight here, okay?
00:42:10Margaret, you have one month to deliver Moore Corp.
00:42:14And make this company's revenue, what, tenfold you said?
00:42:17One month.
00:42:19Or else the will is null and void.
00:42:21And you disappear forever.
00:42:28Agreed.
00:42:29That's right.
00:42:30All right.
00:42:32Oh, you dug your own grave, sis.
00:42:35One month from now, we're going to kick you to the gutter.
00:42:38Where you belong.
00:42:39With your gutter husband.
00:42:40Got it.
00:42:43Chris, you can't make up stories like this.
00:42:54God, I'm going to lose my mother's company.
00:42:58Why did you tell them that they scheduled a meeting?
00:43:01Because I did.
00:43:04Moore Corp was expecting you tomorrow.
00:43:07They are?
00:43:08You're not joking?
00:43:10No.
00:43:11Oh, my God, Chris.
00:43:12That's amazing.
00:43:14By the way, his rings are great.
00:43:17They almost look real.
00:43:19Yeah.
00:43:20Almost.
00:43:21Oh.
00:43:22Oh.
00:43:31Calm down.
00:43:34We're not going to let your daughter beat you.
00:43:36There's no way she can beat me.
00:43:38Moore Corp's would never work with a nobody like her, right?
00:43:42But what if she makes it happen?
00:43:43Then we'll stop her.
00:43:44How?
00:43:49Gina, I'm sending over the contact info for Christopher Moore,
00:43:54the CEO of Moore Corporation.
00:43:57Tell his office the mayor is coming to see him tomorrow.
00:44:01I expect him to be there.
00:44:02Either Mr. Moore does what I tell him to do,
00:44:08or I'll shut down his operations in the city.
00:44:12That'd be a multi-billion dollar loss for him.
00:44:19Christopher Moore guy.
00:44:21He's a real mystery man.
00:44:23No public appearances.
00:44:25And let's not forget,
00:44:26we rejected his fire suppressant,
00:44:29so he's probably pretty pissed off at us.
00:44:31Don't worry about that.
00:44:34We'll find out who he is and how to get to him.
00:44:37That's my specialty.
00:44:42I've never met with the management of a global corporation before.
00:44:46Who knows?
00:44:47Maybe you have and you just didn't know it.
00:44:50I'd know.
00:44:51They're all assholes.
00:44:52You see them coming from a mile away.
00:44:53Okay.
00:44:53Okay.
00:44:54This PowerPoint isn't quite ready yet, I don't think.
00:45:03You need to grab their attention right away.
00:45:07And the flower you're writing,
00:45:10it's a business meeting,
00:45:12not a poetry club.
00:45:14I mean, have you heard of Bullet Boys?
00:45:17Okay.
00:45:17All right.
00:45:18All right.
00:45:18Well, why don't you show me what you would do
00:45:20at the presentation?
00:45:26I like the pink.
00:45:29I don't think they're going to like me very much.
00:45:32The CEO loves you.
00:45:35The CEO of Moor Corp?
00:45:37How would he love me?
00:45:38I've never even met the guy.
00:45:39Um, I mean, he knows you.
00:45:43I've mentioned you to him before.
00:45:46Whoa, Chris, you know the CEO?
00:45:49Who are you?
00:45:51I'm just a nobody.
00:45:53You're not a nobody.
00:45:54You're my husband.
00:45:55You're my husband.
00:46:02It's great.
00:46:03It's just that these guys don't have the attention spans.
00:46:05Read your poetic.
00:46:06For the business proposal,
00:46:07we could do something along the lines of...
00:46:11Today, we are going to be talking about...
00:46:19Do you feel like you're giving a school presentation?
00:46:22We're playing Twister.
00:46:23I'm a dramatic fact.
00:46:26I'm pulling their attention.
00:46:27You are, exactly.
00:46:28It's acting.
00:46:28Jordan, stop.
00:46:30Good.
00:46:31Good.
00:46:31Talking about my presentation that I have.
00:46:45Good morning, boss.
00:46:48I mean, boxes of mints are on the table
00:46:51if you'd like to try one.
00:46:53He will show us to the office.
00:46:55I will show you to that office.
00:46:57What an honor.
00:46:58It's nice to meet you.
00:46:59I think I've heard your voice before.
00:47:01Oh, of course.
00:47:02We work closely together,
00:47:04and he's my...
00:47:07manager.
00:47:09Do you feel ready?
00:47:14I think so.
00:47:15I need to just hit a meeting for my wife.
00:47:22We have an agreement to sign.
00:47:24She still doesn't know who you are.
00:47:26Copy that.
00:47:28I'll set up the meeting now.
00:47:29Oh, and the mayor wants to meet you.
00:47:31Of course she does.
00:47:33She's in the office now.
00:47:34What a surprise.
00:47:35Surprise.
00:47:36What's the surprise?
00:47:37Um...
00:47:38Surprise.
00:47:41What's the surprise?
00:47:42Um, someone else wants a meeting,
00:47:44but they are just going to have to wait.
00:47:53We have been waiting here for half an hour.
00:47:57Yes.
00:47:58That's because you didn't make an appointment in advance.
00:48:01I am the mayor.
00:48:03I know who you are.
00:48:04We all do.
00:48:05My cousin lost her home in the fires.
00:48:08Don't you have more important things to do right now?
00:48:12How dare you?
00:48:14You are just a useless office girl.
00:48:18Now, tell Mr. Moore that I insist...
00:48:29Good morning, Mr. Moore.
00:48:32That's him.
00:48:36Oh, my God.
00:48:39Can you believe they let common street trash
00:48:42in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:44Excuse me.
00:48:45Why did you call him Mr. Moore?
00:48:51Oh, no, no.
00:48:54I was just saying Mr. There's Moore.
00:48:57Like, more mints in the waiting room.
00:49:00What is with the mints here?
00:49:02We've got really good mints.
00:49:03Don't worry about it.
00:49:05I might have underestimated you, okay?
00:49:06But don't you get delusional.
00:49:08Whoever you're meeting has to be a little level of lackey.
00:49:11Let's get real.
00:49:12The mayor and I are meeting the CEO.
00:49:15Stallman.
00:49:16Which means you have zero chance of ever beating me.
00:49:22Got it?
00:49:24Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:27Do you mind waiting here just a bit longer?
00:49:29Oh, sorry your meeting got delayed.
00:49:32Well, mine is right on the dot.
00:49:34You see, my husband and I made a presentation together.
00:49:37It's very professional.
00:49:39I think Moore Corp is really going to like it.
00:49:41I'm taking three.
00:49:46Meant to be.
00:49:50How dare she?
00:49:51How dare she?
00:49:52Fine.
00:49:54We wait.
00:49:55But he better be here soon.
00:49:58I mean, of course.
00:49:59After all, you're the mayor.
00:50:02Thank you all for meeting with me today.
00:50:05Um, my name is Marvin Foster and I will be here for you today.
00:50:19And I would love to work with you.
00:50:30Congratulations.
00:50:33He still isn't here?
00:50:35This is outrageous.
00:50:37Mr. Moore is on the way, but, you know, LA traffic, plus the fires, make it even worse.
00:50:44Excuse me.
00:50:51Sorry to interrupt your indignation, but do you have a sheet protector that I could use?
00:50:56I just signed a contract and I don't want to get it stained or anything.
00:50:59Congratulations, Ms. Foster.
00:51:00Yeah, okay, quit playing games.
00:51:03You didn't sign any contract.
00:51:04Well, unfortunately for you, I did.
00:51:08And it's for a hundred million dollar deal.
00:51:12Bullshit.
00:51:15About that.
00:51:16Looks like I will be the CEO of Foster Inc. after all.
00:51:20You must be so proud of your daughter, Dad.
00:51:26Call me that!
00:51:28I will not let you do this.
00:51:31By the way, what are your friends showing up?
00:51:33Three, two, one.
00:51:34Madam Mayor, what do you have to say about the new fires that just broke out?
00:51:43Oh, no, not again.
00:51:45You'll have to schedule an interview with my press team.
00:51:51I don't have time for this right now.
00:51:53Well, it looks like you have plenty of time.
00:51:56Tell us, why aren't you out there stopping the fires?
00:51:58What do you have to say?
00:51:59It is completely unfair that you are judging me.
00:52:03I am working every minute on this.
00:52:06But you rejected Moor Corp's fire suppressant.
00:52:09And you made a deal with Mr. Foster.
00:52:11I had my reasons.
00:52:13And what were they?
00:52:14Personal profits?
00:52:15Stock options.
00:52:16Oh, Mr. Foster, it's you.
00:52:21We got a tip that you have an under-the-table deal with Madam Mayor.
00:52:26And that your fire suppressant doesn't even work.
00:52:30That is complete nonsense.
00:52:33Complete nonsense, that is.
00:52:35This is a witch hunt.
00:52:37Madam Mayor, just one more.
00:52:39Ask her why she canned the fire chief while her son is collecting millions
00:52:43as a paid consultant for city contractors.
00:52:45Oh, so much corruption, so little time.
00:52:49Let's go.
00:52:50Yeah, yeah, let's go.
00:52:51But Madam Mayor, just one more.
00:52:53For the people.
00:52:54Last question about your personal record.
00:52:58Why aren't you out there trying to stop the fires?
00:53:02It is completely unfair for you to judge me.
00:53:05I have been working on this every day.
00:53:08One of our eyewitness team members has found a secret ledger
00:53:11showing the city is paying triple for the fire suppressant.
00:53:14You know.
00:53:15You were perfect in today's meeting.
00:53:20Yeah, but the CEO, Mr. Moore, didn't show up.
00:53:23I wonder what he's like.
00:53:27Probably just some rich a-hole.
00:53:30That's what you said, remember?
00:53:32Yeah, but his company's actually doing good things.
00:53:36I kind of want to meet him.
00:53:37I don't know if that's a great idea.
00:53:40He's a bachelor, you know.
00:53:42He might try to steal you from me.
00:53:46Oh, that is not going to happen.
00:53:48I felt you supporting me today, Chris.
00:53:53All day.
00:53:55I haven't felt that support since my mom passed away.
00:53:57I'm sorry you had to go through that.
00:54:00I know it must have been a very dark time.
00:54:03She was my rock.
00:54:05I can be the rock of your life now.
00:54:07I want to be the person you lean on when you need it.
00:54:13You know, sometimes I just want to rip your clothes off and drag you to bed,
00:54:18and other times I just want to get closer and feel your heart beating next to mine.
00:54:22My heart is racing for you.
00:54:35My heart is racing for you.
00:54:52I want to take you by the hand and lead you to the dance floor.
00:54:57Girl, it's our time.
00:55:00Just you and I.
00:55:02Don't, I don't hide.
00:55:05No, I'll do it right.
00:55:09We got all night.
00:55:11I'll take you so high.
00:55:16Yeah.
00:55:17Baby, let me love you.
00:55:19Let me love you.
00:55:21Baby, let me love you.
00:55:22You killed it, Margaret.
00:55:31You're a rock star.
00:55:33We're with you, Margaret.
00:55:35Always.
00:55:36You see?
00:55:37Everyone's with you now.
00:55:39No one supports you now.
00:55:41Because this is a bogus agreement.
00:55:44It's a publicity stunt.
00:55:46You guys just see?
00:55:47Like anyone's going to give her a hundred million dollars.
00:55:51Oh my gosh.
00:55:52Put me through to finance.
00:56:07We need to make a bank transfer.
00:56:08Once they find out that my surprise is better than more companies,
00:56:12they're going to cut Margaret off like that.
00:56:18Oh, so, uh, who you supported now?
00:56:26Are you sure a moral corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:28100%.
00:56:29Why would they shell out cash to someone like that?
00:56:42Because a down payment of $30 million just landed in our corporate account.
00:56:49From more corp.
00:56:52Ooh, wrong again, Dad.
00:56:56Seems like you're making a real handle on that.
00:56:59Just you wait.
00:57:00Once they see that my surprise is superior,
00:57:03all of this
00:57:04is going to be all gone.
00:57:06Margaret, we want you to know that we support you
00:57:11and we've been on your side all along.
00:57:13Yes.
00:57:15I really appreciate that.
00:57:19Seems like we have some big things to do.
00:57:21Today's the day that we prove our suppressiveness superior
00:57:29once and for all.
00:57:31Get those stupid reporters off our backs.
00:57:34And as the new fire chief,
00:57:36you know what your job is, right?
00:57:40Fight the fires?
00:57:41No.
00:57:42Make sure you follow my commands.
00:57:50It's them.
00:57:53How did you know they were going to be here?
00:57:55Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:00Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:02Hey, I'm just a regular guy.
00:58:05That's what you said.
00:58:06That's why you like me.
00:58:08Remember?
00:58:08Well, for a regular guy,
00:58:10you sure do have a lot of inside information.
00:58:12I just know they ordered a chopper today.
00:58:14Off record,
00:58:14and I want to know why.
00:58:17There it is.
00:58:30The fires are getting worse.
00:58:31Holy shit.
00:58:33Oh.
00:58:34Oh.
00:58:35No.
00:58:36That's not fire suppressant.
00:58:38It's more like fire starter.
00:58:40Call the chopper and tell him to stop dropping it.
00:58:43Oh, my God.
00:58:45Oh.
00:58:46It's too late.
00:58:47The payloads have all been dropped.
00:58:49Good God.
00:58:51It's coming our direction.
00:58:52You're an idiot.
00:58:54If this reaches us,
00:58:55everything here is going to blow sky high.
00:58:58Oh.
00:58:59Oh.
00:59:00No, but how do half-ports like this
00:59:02get control of the city?
00:59:03We've got to do something about this.
00:59:05No.
00:59:05I'll fix it with you now,
00:59:07but first,
00:59:08I've got to get you to safety.
00:59:09Come on.
00:59:10Okay.
00:59:10Come on.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:15For now,
00:59:16I just want you to stay here
00:59:17and be careful.
00:59:19You need to be careful, too, Chris.
00:59:21You're not fireproof, you know.
00:59:22Okay.
00:59:25What are you doing here?
00:59:26Step ahead of you.
00:59:28Thought you might need my help.
00:59:30Okay.
00:59:31Yeah, I've got a few things
00:59:32you can do for me.
00:59:34You've got stuff to do for him?
00:59:36But I thought he was your manager.
00:59:38He is.
00:59:39But the thing is...
00:59:42I'm...
00:59:43As your manager,
00:59:44I have to look after my employees.
00:59:47Why, I might even give you a raise
00:59:49next year, Chris.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:53Just stay here.
00:59:55Keep a watch on the fire alerts, okay?
00:59:57I will call my people...
00:59:59Our people...
01:00:00To protect you.
01:00:05Tomorrow.
01:00:09Call Caps on fire
01:00:10and have them come to Margaret's house
01:00:11immediately.
01:00:12Really?
01:00:13You didn't even do that
01:00:13for your own house,
01:00:14which is worth like
01:00:15a hundred million dollars.
01:00:16Just do it, okay?
01:00:18Okay.
01:00:19I'm only saying
01:00:20her house is worth
01:00:21like half a million.
01:00:22The cost of the service
01:00:23is probably...
01:00:24It's not always about money, Whitman.
01:00:26Okay.
01:00:27Call them right now.
01:00:29You're paying the bill.
01:00:31It's going to be an expensive call.
01:00:41Fire Protection Service?
01:00:44Where'd they come from?
01:00:45You screwed this up!
01:00:51I could bankrupt you like that!
01:00:54Hold on.
01:00:55I know how to fix all of this
01:00:56with just two words.
01:00:58More, Corb.
01:01:00Okay?
01:01:01We buy all their fire suppressant.
01:01:03You know, very hush-hush.
01:01:05Then you
01:01:06get all the credit for it.
01:01:07How?
01:01:08They blocked our calls.
01:01:10We can't get to them.
01:01:11Yeah, we can't.
01:01:13But Margaret can.
01:01:16And she
01:01:17is still my daughter.
01:01:22My critics
01:01:23are politically motivated.
01:01:26We have the fires
01:01:27completely
01:01:28under control.
01:01:30This is bullshit.
01:01:31I grew up in Los Angeles.
01:01:33I played in these parks
01:01:34and in these playgrounds.
01:01:35Not to watch it all burn down
01:01:44because these fools
01:01:45won't use a fire suppressant
01:01:46that works.
01:01:48Margaret!
01:01:56I hope you don't mind
01:01:58me interrupting,
01:01:59Mr. Whitman.
01:02:01Huh?
01:02:02Oh, yes.
01:02:03Well, this...
01:02:04Yes, it's my office.
01:02:05But, you know,
01:02:06if it's important...
01:02:07It is.
01:02:09Chris,
01:02:10my father called.
01:02:11He wants something.
01:02:15My father called.
01:02:16He wants something.
01:02:18The answer's no.
01:02:20If there's something
01:02:20that your dad wants,
01:02:21it's probably bad.
01:02:23Maybe not this time.
01:02:24He wants to call a truce.
01:02:26Yes.
01:02:26He wants to call a truce.
01:02:26It's very unusual
01:02:32for Mr. Moore
01:02:33to grant a meeting
01:02:34on such short notice.
01:02:36You'll need to be quick.
01:02:37Right.
01:02:38Mr. Moore is a very private man
01:02:40and this meeting
01:02:40is entirely confidential.
01:02:42Do not try to look
01:02:43at his face.
01:02:45Talk.
01:02:47Well,
01:02:47to be a vendor
01:02:49in this city,
01:02:50you have to go through
01:02:51lots of protocols.
01:02:53That takes time.
01:02:54We don't have time.
01:02:57Exactly.
01:02:59You see,
01:03:00Mr. Foster's company
01:03:01is already
01:03:02an approved vendor.
01:03:04And so...
01:03:05So we sell to Mr. Foster.
01:03:06He sells to the city.
01:03:08We can't let anyone know.
01:03:10Do I have that right?
01:03:11You are fast,
01:03:13Mr. Moore.
01:03:14So,
01:03:15what's your price?
01:03:17Free.
01:03:18But you have to answer
01:03:19this one question.
01:03:20Why are you doing this?
01:03:24Well,
01:03:25we were just concerned
01:03:27for the city.
01:03:28Cut the bullshit.
01:03:30Speak to me straight
01:03:32or get out.
01:03:34Okay.
01:03:37Oh, okay.
01:03:38Let's put our cards
01:03:39on the table.
01:03:43We'll put our cards
01:03:44on the table.
01:03:45We're doing this
01:03:47because
01:03:48our fire suppressant
01:03:50didn't work.
01:03:51It made the fires worse.
01:03:54If the public finds out,
01:03:56we're screwed.
01:03:57So,
01:03:58we'd like to use
01:04:00the Moore Corps fire suppressant.
01:04:02But you can't tell anyone.
01:04:05They have to believe
01:04:06we made it.
01:04:07If you agree,
01:04:09I will guarantee
01:04:10permission
01:04:11of the shopping mall
01:04:12you applied for
01:04:13in downtown L.A.
01:04:14deal?
01:04:19Deal.
01:04:21We'll deliver
01:04:212,000 tons
01:04:23of the suppressant
01:04:23this afternoon.
01:04:24But you must
01:04:25deploy it
01:04:27immediately.
01:04:28Fine.
01:04:30Just to confirm,
01:04:32what's the price?
01:04:35Zero.
01:04:37You
01:04:37don't pay
01:04:38a penny.
01:04:39Well,
01:04:41that sounds
01:04:41like a win-win.
01:04:43Cut the
01:04:43formalities.
01:04:45We're done here.
01:04:51Okay.
01:04:52Thanks.
01:04:56This guy's
01:04:57a prime idiot.
01:04:58Angels for free.
01:05:00He's a billionaire,
01:05:02you fool.
01:05:03He doesn't care
01:05:04about small money.
01:05:05I knew he wanted
01:05:06to build that mall.
01:05:07That's how
01:05:09I got it.
01:05:10I don't
01:05:11understand.
01:05:12Why did you
01:05:12give it to them
01:05:13for free?
01:05:15Because I got
01:05:16exactly
01:05:17what I wanted.
01:05:21Our fire suppressant
01:05:22didn't work.
01:05:24It made
01:05:25the fire worse.
01:05:32It's been an hour.
01:05:34Why haven't
01:05:35we gotten any word?
01:05:36It's been 20 minutes.
01:05:37The pilot's
01:05:38need time to confirm.
01:05:39Mrs. Mayor,
01:05:40it worked.
01:05:41It's like
01:05:42a miracle.
01:05:44Moore Corp
01:05:44suppressant
01:05:45is...
01:05:45Don't say
01:05:46Moore Corp.
01:05:48No one
01:05:49is to know
01:05:50where it's from.
01:05:51As far as
01:05:52the world
01:05:53is concerned,
01:05:54it's
01:05:55our
01:05:55suppressant.
01:05:58Got it?
01:05:59Yes.
01:06:00Got it.
01:06:01No problem.
01:06:02you know how much
01:06:06money this is
01:06:07going to make us.
01:06:10You are going to
01:06:11be known as
01:06:12the mayor
01:06:13who saved
01:06:15the city.
01:06:17And you
01:06:18are going to
01:06:19win the next
01:06:20election
01:06:20by a landslide.

01:06:39every news outlet
01:06:47saying the same
01:06:48thing.
01:06:49It's not a fluke.
01:06:51The first time
01:06:52in a week,
01:06:53the fires are
01:06:54retreating.
01:06:55What about
01:06:56the suppressant?
01:06:57They've dropped
01:06:57all of it
01:06:58and they want
01:06:58more.
01:06:59The winds have
01:07:00even died down.
01:07:02It's like nature
01:07:02is on our side
01:07:03now.
01:07:04Finally.
01:07:09The mayor is
01:07:13calling a press
01:07:14conference.
01:07:15You know she's
01:07:16going to take
01:07:16credit for
01:07:17stopping the fires.
01:07:18I know she's
01:07:19going to try.
01:07:21Oh, what about
01:07:22Margaret?
01:07:23This is not
01:07:24good, boss.
01:07:25She really
01:07:26thinks I run
01:07:26more court.
01:07:27I don't know
01:07:28why.
01:07:29You are entirely
01:07:30unconvincing.
01:07:31I'm totally
01:07:32convincing.
01:07:34What you need
01:07:35is some acting
01:07:35classes.
01:07:36Don't you
01:07:38think it's
01:07:39time to let
01:07:39her in on

01:13:36heard is a
01:13:37fairy tale,
01:13:38fiction,
01:13:40a lie.
01:13:42Oh my goodness.
01:13:44Is that your
01:13:45billionaire husband?
01:13:46No.
01:13:46The mayor has
01:13:51been lying to
01:13:52you all.
01:13:53Pay no
01:13:54attention to
01:13:54this man.
01:13:56Security,
01:13:57have him removed.
01:13:58Y'all pay no
01:13:59attention to this.
01:14:00There's nothing to
01:14:01see here.
01:14:02The firemen are
01:14:03the true heroes
01:14:04who saved this
01:14:05city.
01:14:05The mayor has
01:14:06time and time
01:14:07again tried to
01:14:07stop them.
01:14:09That is
01:14:10bullshit.
01:14:11Security,
01:14:12do your
01:14:12jobs.
01:14:13No,
01:14:14let him
01:14:14speak.
01:14:15It's a free
01:14:16country.
01:14:16Yeah,
01:14:17let him talk.
01:14:18Yeah,
01:14:18we want a
01:14:19statement.
01:14:19Yeah,
01:14:19let him talk.
01:14:20Yeah,
01:14:20let him talk.
01:14:21Mayor Davis,
01:14:22why are you
01:14:22afraid of this
01:14:23man?
01:14:23Are you hiding
01:14:24something?
01:14:25Of course
01:14:26not?
01:14:27She's afraid
01:14:27of me because
01:14:28she knows that
01:14:29I can tell you
01:14:29all right now
01:14:30what actually
01:14:31happened.
01:14:31And why
01:14:32should we
01:14:32listen to
01:14:32you?
01:14:35Because the
01:14:36fire suppressant
01:14:36that actually
01:14:37put out the
01:14:37fires was
01:14:39supplied by
01:14:39MoorCorp,
01:14:40and I am
01:14:41the CEO
01:14:41of MoorCorp.
01:14:45I am
01:14:46Christopher
01:14:46Moore.
01:14:47Well,
01:14:48he's not hiding
01:14:49his identity
01:14:49anymore.
01:14:50He's taking
01:14:51on the whole
01:14:51city.
01:14:53Instead of
01:14:53trying to put
01:14:54the fires out,
01:14:55the mayor and
01:14:56her collaborators
01:14:56were profiting
01:14:57off of them.
01:15:00I want to
01:15:01watch this
01:15:01live.
01:15:01You coming?
01:15:03No.
01:15:10Yes?
01:15:10Hold on,
01:15:11Isabel.
01:15:15My company
01:15:16has been trying
01:15:16to assist
01:15:17the firefighters.
01:15:18He's the
01:15:19CEO of MoorCorp?
01:15:21Why didn't
01:15:22you tell me,
01:15:22you dumbass?
01:15:23Don't stop him.
01:15:24We're all
01:15:25screwed.
01:15:26Then do
01:15:26something to
01:15:27stop him.
01:15:27The mayor
01:15:28threatened us
01:15:28and time
01:15:29and time
01:15:30again tried
01:15:30to get
01:15:31in our
01:15:31way.
01:15:31That
01:15:32is not
01:15:33true.
01:15:34Look,
01:15:35I received
01:15:35a medal
01:15:36for all
01:15:37of my
01:15:37hard work
01:15:38in putting
01:15:38out those
01:15:39fires.
01:15:40I wouldn't
01:15:40have given
01:15:41myself this
01:15:41medal if I
01:15:42didn't deserve
01:15:42it.
01:15:44Mr. Moore,
01:15:45I think there's
01:15:45been a little
01:15:46misunderstanding
01:15:47that I speak
01:15:48to you privately.
01:15:49The mayor
01:15:50wanted me to
01:15:51remind you
01:15:52about the
01:15:53permission
01:15:54from the
01:15:55shopping mall.
01:15:57Oh,
01:15:57of course.
01:15:58That reminds me.
01:16:00Whitman!
01:16:01Let's play them
01:16:02that video we brought.
01:16:03our fire
01:16:11suppressant
01:16:11didn't work.
01:16:12It made the
01:16:13fires worse.
01:16:15If the public
01:16:16finds out,
01:16:17we are screwed.
01:16:19Why are you
01:16:20hiding the truth
01:16:21from the citizens
01:16:21in your own city?
01:16:23Okay,
01:16:23this is a
01:16:25complete fabrication.
01:16:26I mean,
01:16:27look at that.
01:16:27It's an AIGC
01:16:29deepfake.
01:16:30I have
01:16:31something to
01:16:31say about
01:16:32that.
01:16:40No.
01:16:41No!
01:16:43This man
01:16:43has no
01:16:44business here.
01:16:45He was
01:16:46fired for
01:16:47dereliction
01:16:47of duty.
01:16:49Officers!
01:16:50Remove him!
01:16:55Are you
01:16:55going to
01:16:56stop me?
01:16:56No search.
01:17:01We'll
01:17:02clear the
01:17:02way.
01:17:03Everyone,
01:17:04wait for
01:17:05Chief Taylor
01:17:05and his
01:17:06men.

01:17:13They're
01:17:13heroes.

01:17:52gentlemen,
01:17:53the reason

01:21:37Christopher Moore is accusing you of embezzlement, money laundering, securities fraud.
01:21:43I will make his life a living hell.
01:21:46Michelle Davis, you're under arrest on 12 counts of corruption.
01:21:51Are you insane?
01:21:53You just committed career suicide.
01:21:56You're fired.
01:21:58You're on fire.
01:21:59Take your hands over her.
01:22:00She's the mayor.
01:22:00And you are under arrest for interfering with law enforcement.
01:22:05Let's go.
01:22:05Take them both.
01:22:06On my side.
01:22:06You have the right to remain silent.
01:22:08I fired you.
01:22:09You're going to regret this.
01:22:13Hurry up.
01:22:14We need to run.
01:22:15The police will be here soon.
01:22:16Why should I leave?
01:22:17I don't want to go anywhere.
01:22:19I've got three tickets to Venezuela.
01:22:21You get to sit by the window.
01:22:23We have to rebuild our lives there.
01:22:25Don't worry.
01:22:26I have plenty of cash.
01:22:27And I have a buyer lined up for the house.
01:22:30Apologies.
01:22:31But you can't sell something that's not rightfully yours.
01:22:36What the hell is going on here?
01:22:37You can't sell my mother's house because you acquired it illegally.
01:22:42No.
01:22:43Margaret.
01:22:45My daughter.
01:22:47I wasn't going to sell it.
01:22:48It belongs to you.
01:22:50Your mother's company.
01:22:51Her home.
01:22:52It's all yours.
01:22:54Chris.
01:22:56Mr. Moore.
01:22:59I'm your father-in-law.
01:23:01I'm almost 60.
01:23:02You don't want to put me away, do you?
01:23:03You know, you have a good point, Dad.
01:23:08Oh, wait.
01:23:09You asked me specifically to not call you that.
01:23:12You know, in fact, since the day that I met you,
01:23:14you've done nothing but tried to destroy your own daughter.
01:23:16No.
01:23:17You're paying for what you did, Dad.
01:23:20Hey, I...
01:23:21How dare you put your own father in jail?
01:23:26You are an ungrateful little bitch.
01:23:31Oh, no.

01:23:33You can't leave the country until the trial's over.
01:23:45Oh, and by the way,
01:23:47your assets are frozen, so you can't stay at this hotel.
01:23:50But don't worry.
01:23:51We've made arrangements for you to stay at a different place.
01:23:55What other arrangements?

01:24:01No.
01:24:03No, no, no.

01:24:49Well, if she is really looking down, then she'll be very glad to know that I found a much better man.
01:24:57And I bet she'd be so excited to know that I'm marrying a...
01:25:00A bloody letter?
