00:00:00Oh no!
00:00:17How dare you evade my home!
00:00:20It's my mother's home.
00:00:21She's dead.
00:00:22Your father signed the deed over to me and my daughter, Caitlyn.
00:00:26So get the hell out!
00:00:27You need to get the hell out, Ravita! The house is on fire!
00:00:29You expect me to believe a stupid line like that.
00:00:34The house is on fire!
00:00:36Oh my God! The house is on fire!
00:00:42Caitlyn!
00:00:44Caitlyn!
00:00:49My mother's dress.
00:00:50I have to get it.
00:00:52Oh my God!
00:00:53Oh my God!
00:00:55Oh my God!
00:00:59Caitlyn!
00:01:03Shit!
00:01:04What the fuck are you doing here?
00:01:06Excuse me?
00:01:08This is my room.
00:01:09This is my room!
00:01:16Hey!
00:01:18What's up?
00:01:19Steele! You're fucking my sister!
00:01:22Stuck sister! This is your fault!
00:01:25Poor Margaret!
00:01:26While you were busy dreaming about your wedding,
00:01:29I was here, satisfying your fiancé.
00:01:32I just made him come three times on your bed.
00:01:34You are nothing but a social climbing, home-wrecking whore,
00:01:37just like your mom!
00:01:39Come on!
00:01:55Babe, are you okay?
00:01:56Uh-huh, yeah.
00:01:57Margaret, you stupid fucking bitch!
00:02:01Let me be clear.
00:02:03You get married, you get your mom's business.
00:02:05Why else do you think I propose to you?
00:02:07I'll see you.
00:02:08Oh my god!
00:02:09You were just using me to get to my mom's company?
00:02:11You lying scumbag!
00:02:13The wedding's off!
00:02:15I hope you burn in this fire!
00:02:17Fire? What fire?
00:02:19Fire! Fire!
00:02:20Fire!
00:02:21Ah! Fuck!
00:02:22Fuck!
00:02:23No!
00:02:24We need to get out!
00:02:25We need to get out!
00:02:26We need to get out!
00:02:27We need to get out!
00:02:28Get out!
00:02:29This is my wedding dress, honey.
00:02:30Promise me that you'll wear it when you get married.
00:02:34That way, I know no matter what happens, I'll be there with you on your wedding day.
00:02:52Heart's a heart.
00:02:53I promise mommy.
00:02:54I hope I might not get to wear this wedding dress.
00:03:07This is my fiancee, the cheating asshole.
00:03:09Oh my god, I gotta get out of here.
00:03:14Boss!
00:03:15The private helicopter's on the way.
00:03:28They'll airlift you out.
00:03:29You take the airlift.
00:03:30I'm gonna go check out the neighbors.
00:03:31What?
00:03:32No!
00:03:33Boss!
00:03:34Come on!
00:03:35LA's an inferno!
00:03:36Everyone's in danger!
00:03:37I know!
00:03:38That's why I've gotta stay.
00:03:39Goddamn wildfires.
00:03:40Boss!
00:03:44No...
00:03:46No!
00:03:47Oh, no!
00:04:09Oh, no!
00:04:11Is that bitch still in there?
00:04:18Whatever.
00:04:19Oh, no!
00:04:20Oh, no!
00:04:21We...
00:04:22Someone has to help us!
00:04:24I can't lose my custom-built home!
00:04:27Help!
00:04:28Help!
00:04:29Help!
00:04:30Guys, you've got to evacuate and get out of here!
00:04:35Evacuate!
00:04:36The minimal appraisal value is 10 million!
00:04:40Millie!
00:04:41I'm just tired of now!
00:04:43Okay, clear it out!
00:04:45Is someone still in there?
00:04:46That's just my stupid sister!
00:04:47Who cares about her?
00:04:49What's her name?
00:04:51Margaret, but you can just call her loser!
00:04:54Wait if you're going inside!
00:04:55I have 10 Hermes bags!
00:04:58Birkin!
00:04:59You have to take them, please!
00:05:01Okay!
00:05:02They're in my closet!
00:05:05I think he might do it!
00:05:07Margaret!
00:05:09Margaret!
00:05:10Margaret!
00:05:11Margaret!
00:05:12Where are you?
00:05:13Can you hear me?
00:05:15Oh, no!
00:05:18Oh, no!
00:05:19Oh, no!
00:05:20Oh, no!
00:05:21Oh, no!
00:05:22What?
00:05:23Margaret!
00:05:24Can you hear me?
00:05:25You're going to be okay!
00:05:27Yeah!
00:05:28Alright?
00:05:29Oh, no!
00:05:30Thank you!
00:05:31Margaret, can you hear me?
00:05:42You're going to be okay.
00:05:44All right?
00:05:50Congrats on your wedding.
00:05:53Belong to my mom.
00:05:55That's cream.
00:05:57Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:05:59Hold on to me, okay?
00:06:01Let's get out of here.
00:06:25Where are my designer bags?
00:06:27You guys need to take her to the hospital right now.
00:06:29You saved her?
00:06:30Why?
00:06:31She doesn't even live in the zip code.
00:06:33If you all don't take her to safety, you'll all be charged with attempted murder.
00:06:36Uh, don't talk to me like that, you cringy firefighter.
00:06:40Take her to the hospital now.
00:06:42Ridiculous.
00:06:43Fine.
00:06:44You take her.
00:06:48Stop touching her.
00:06:50Then how am I supposed to carry her?
00:06:51I don't know.
00:06:53You canceled the engagement.
00:07:09Are you out of your mind?
00:07:12Are you out of your mind?
00:07:13I almost die in a fire and that's all you have to say to me?
00:07:17His mother is mayor of this whole city.
00:07:19She can open doors with a wave of her hand.
00:07:21I don't care if she can fart rainbows with a wave of her butt.
00:07:25Oh, and did they tell you that he's been fucking Caitlyn?
00:07:28Watch your mouth.
00:07:31Tell her to watch what she sticks between her legs.
00:07:34Don't you dare talk to me like that.
00:07:36I should have let you die in that house so you can burn in hell.
00:07:39You tried to leave me there, remember?
00:07:41You think I don't know that?
00:07:42Cut the crap.
00:07:44You're going to marry Steel and you're going to make him happen.
00:07:47No, I'm not a tramp who sells my body to men for money.
00:07:52That's more Caitlyn style.
00:07:57You know what?
00:07:59Dad, you can climb into bed with the Wicked Witch of the West every night.
00:08:04That's your business.
00:08:05But I will not sleep with some slimy-ass bottom feeder to make you happy.
00:08:10Well, then you can kiss your inheritance goodbye.
00:08:12I guess I'll be taking over your mother's company.
00:08:15She left it to me.
00:08:16Only if you're married by next week.
00:08:19And then what are you going to do if Steel dumps you?
00:08:22Just look at you.
00:08:24You can't even get out of bed.
00:08:28Oh, gosh, Ravina.
00:08:31It looks like I can get out of bed after all.
00:08:36And you can't stop me.
00:08:39Are you high?
00:08:41Where the hell do you think you're going?
00:08:43To find a husband.
00:08:46To find a husband.
00:08:56And I know just where to find him.
00:08:59Stop right now, young lady.
00:09:01Stop her!
00:09:02A $50 million donation?
00:09:10This is a godsend.
00:09:12Look, man.
00:09:13You guys are the real heroes.
00:09:15I was just happy I could help.
00:09:17Well, I appreciate it.
00:09:19I actually got you a gift.
00:09:23Come on, man.
00:09:23You may have to do that.
00:09:24Chief Tanner, this is perfect.
00:09:33Sincerely.
00:09:34Who did it to me?
00:09:47Where is he?
00:09:49Who did what to you?
00:09:51Saved my life yesterday.
00:09:52No, no, not you either.
00:09:59No, you're not the one.
00:10:02It's not here.
00:10:08What about that guy?
00:10:11You are.
00:10:12Let's go.
00:10:13Excuse me for a second, sir.
00:10:14It's you.
00:10:21I'm sorry, miss?
00:10:23You're the guy.
00:10:25I think you might have it.
00:10:33Whoa.
00:10:34Slow down.
00:10:36It's me.
00:10:38Margaret.
00:10:38I know I'm silly.
00:10:41I shouldn't have come here.
00:10:42I just...
00:10:43I have nowhere else to go.
00:10:45No one to trust.
00:10:46I lost everything that I had.
00:10:50Hey.
00:10:51It's okay.
00:10:52You're safe now.
00:10:54You say you were...
00:10:57Margaret.
00:11:22I knew you'd remember me.
00:11:23I'm sorry.
00:11:24I didn't recognize you.
00:11:27I don't know what he's going to do after.
00:11:44Okay.
00:11:45I have two requests.
00:11:46Okay.
00:11:48First, in the future when we do that,
00:11:50your hugs don't have to be so delicate.
00:11:52I'm not breakable.
00:11:54Agreed?
00:11:54Yeah, sure.
00:11:57And my second request is...
00:11:59Marry me.
00:12:01What?
00:12:02I'll explain all the details later,
00:12:03but we got to go right now.
00:12:06Hey, if he doesn't want to, I'm available.
00:12:08Yeah, me too.
00:12:09I'm here all day.
00:12:10When it comes to hot women,
00:12:12nobody handles them like firemen.
00:12:13We're specialists.
00:12:15Whoa.
00:12:16Easy.
00:12:17Down, down, boys.
00:12:19Did any of the three of you hear me say no?
00:12:21Let's go.
00:12:22Why couldn't that happen to me?
00:12:27We'll have a big ceremony later.
00:12:28For now, this makes it official.
00:12:31By the way, how do you feel about kids?
00:12:34I feel great about kids.
00:12:37When I was a little girl,
00:12:39my mom always told me to always bring nice pajamas to bed.
00:12:42You know why?
00:12:43Why?
00:12:44In case of an emergency,
00:12:46if a fireman came in,
00:12:47she said,
00:12:48you never know.
00:12:50Maybe he might become your husband.
00:12:52I'm Margarita.
00:12:53I'm sorry I haven't had the chance to tell you this yet,
00:12:55but I'm not actually a firefighter.
00:12:57I just happened to be there
00:12:58and was able to help that day.
00:13:00But you saved my life
00:13:06and my mother's dress
00:13:08and that meant a lot to me.
00:13:10You're my hero.
00:13:13I should tell her who I am.
00:13:15Margarita, I'm the...
00:13:17Okay, I can tell her later.
00:13:35You know,
00:13:37we can't just kiss every single time
00:13:39we look into each other's eyes.
00:13:41You're right.
00:13:42You're right.
00:13:44No, no, you're not.
00:13:47No, no, no, no.
00:13:48No, no, no.
00:13:49No, no, no, no.
00:13:50No, no, no, no.
00:13:55Oh.
00:13:55Oh.
00:13:56Right, thank you.
00:14:01Come flip.
00:14:06Well, my husband,
00:14:07shall we go to your place or mine?
00:14:09I'm...
00:14:10I'm actually homeless.
00:14:12My house burned down in the fires.
00:14:15I...
00:14:16I'm so sorry.
00:14:17Well,
00:14:18you're my husband now,
00:14:19so you can just move in with me.
00:14:21I'll help you move.
00:14:22I can't let her know I'm staying in the W Hotel.
00:14:25It's too fancy.
00:14:30That's so kind and sweet of you,
00:14:32but I wouldn't want you to get your hands dirty.
00:14:34I'll help you move.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:36Okay.
00:14:38Well...
00:14:40This...
00:14:42is my address.
00:14:43See you soon, husband.
00:14:45Dad, you can't make me sleep on the floor
00:14:54while you sleep with my mother
00:14:56on the Eiderdown Savoir Grand Emperor bed.
00:15:00That's not fair.
00:15:01No.
00:15:02Book me a suite right now.
00:15:05Are you delusional?
00:15:07Every decent hotel runs out of rooms.
00:15:11Oh.
00:15:12How about you?
00:15:13Go get yourself a room at the Motel 6.
00:15:15What?
00:15:16Noah!
00:15:18Honey.
00:15:20Can I stay at your place?
00:15:22Look.
00:15:23Either we solve this with Margaret,
00:15:25or we're gonna leave.
00:15:26No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:15:27We'll fix it.
00:15:28She will marry you.
00:15:29Excuse her.
00:15:30She's still a little out of sorts
00:15:32after the whole city burning down thing.
00:15:35Well, she's gonna have to come crawling back to me
00:15:37on her knees.
00:15:39Too bad you couldn't choose Caitlin instead.
00:15:41No, Ravina.
00:15:42This is a business transaction.
00:15:44Steel marries Margaret,
00:15:45then becomes CEO of Foster Incorporated.
00:15:49My ex-wife's business.
00:15:51That's the perfect arrangement
00:15:53because Margaret supplies Steel with the money.
00:15:55Yeah.
00:15:56And Caitlin supplies him with other benefits.
00:15:59Other benefits.
00:16:00They're like a tag team.
00:16:03A tag team?
00:16:11Let's get this clear once and for all.
00:16:14None of you are ever getting your hands
00:16:16on my mother's money, ever.
00:16:18Not you.
00:16:19Not my sleazy, ass-for-sale stepsister.
00:16:22Not this cheating man whore.
00:16:24And not whoever the hell you are.
00:16:29I'm the mayor of this city.
00:16:30And you just called my son a man whore.
00:16:42You will apologize.
00:16:44Now, on your knees.
00:16:48Or I will crush you.
00:16:51No, I don't get on my knees.
00:16:55That's Caitlin's specialty.
00:16:57But I am so sorry that I called your son a man whore.
00:17:01I should have called him a wannabe man whore
00:17:04because he only has one pitiful pickup line.
00:17:07My mother's the mayor.
00:17:09A mayor who let the reservoirs get so dry
00:17:12that the whole city could burn.
00:17:14You want me to apologize?
00:17:16You should be apologizing to the people of this city.
00:17:19One more word.
00:17:21Sit down and shut it.
00:17:24You will be a humble, obedient, respectful wife.
00:17:29Or you will never inherit that company.
00:17:32I'm afraid I can't marry Steele.
00:17:35Don't you know that polygamy is illegal in California?
00:17:38A woman can't have two husbands.
00:17:40What are you talking about?
00:17:43Well, you see, I'm already married.
00:17:51My paper beats your paper.
00:17:53What did you do?
00:17:55Grab some homeless guy to marry?
00:18:01Everyone knows you were engaged to the mayor's son.
00:18:04How dare you embarrass the mayor publicly?
00:18:08You were a liability to this company
00:18:09and you'll be replaced as a CEO by me.
00:18:12I am the new CEO.
00:18:15That is not gonna happen.
00:18:17Hmm.
00:18:22I'll get up with you guys in a little bit.
00:18:23I feel clear out of my room.
00:18:26Boss, you married a girl you don't even know?
00:18:29What were you thinking?
00:18:34Whitman, sometimes in life you crunch the numbers
00:18:38and read the market and leverage your assets.
00:18:42And then there's other times you just listen to your heart.
00:18:47This is one of those times.
00:18:52There's my wife right now.
00:18:57Margaret, you're done.
00:18:59Who's that creep that's threatening her?
00:19:02That's Jackson Foster, your father-in-law.
00:19:05I did some research.
00:19:07Step ahead of you, boss.
00:19:08Well, I'm gonna put an end to this.
00:19:13Anyone can make a fake marriage license.
00:19:15Just admit you don't have a husband.
00:19:17Excuse me.
00:19:18Who the hell are you?
00:19:22I'm Margaret's husband.
00:19:24Dad.
00:19:25Is this some kind of joke?
00:19:26You're the joke.
00:19:28Of course it's you.
00:19:30You found some random fireman to marry.
00:19:33Oh my God.
00:19:35How pathetic.
00:19:37How much does he make a year?
00:19:39Like 30,000 after taxes?
00:19:42You really lowered yourself, Margaret.
00:19:45A fireman?
00:19:48What's wrong with being a fireman?
00:19:52Poor.
00:19:53Stinky.
00:19:56These men save your lives and you bitches point your noses down at them?
00:20:00They are saving this city.
00:20:02Because she was too inept to do it.
00:20:04Keep it up.
00:20:06And I'll wipe that ugly look off of your face permanently.
00:20:10You know who I am.
00:20:14Move your fat asses.
00:20:16Go out there and do your goddamn jobs.
00:20:18And stop interrupting us.
00:20:20I'm sorry.
00:20:22We all know who you are.
00:20:25Miss do nothing mayor.
00:20:27Why are you here sitting in a hotel lobby blabbing while the whole city is burning down?
00:20:33Who are you to challenge me?
00:20:36I can fire all of you.
00:20:40Hey guys.
00:20:41We're being fired.
00:20:43Oh wait a minute.
00:20:44We're not our chief so you can't fire us.
00:20:47That's it. We're done talking to you idiots.
00:20:49As for you, you're gonna dump this pathetic loser and you're coming home with me.
00:20:53Touch her again and I will drop you where you stand.
00:20:58You and what army?
00:21:00This army.
00:21:02You owe us an apology.
00:21:04All of you.
00:21:06Apologize.
00:21:07No.
00:21:08Oh.
00:21:10Poor firemen.
00:21:12I'm so sorry.
00:21:14Sorry about to get your asses kicked out of here.
00:21:17Security!
00:21:22Good move, Madam Mayor.
00:21:25And when this whole city burns down, how are you gonna explain to your people that you fired the firefighters that were trying to protect it?
00:21:31This is breaking news.
00:21:32It seems the mayor is firing a team of firefighters.
00:21:36Madam Mayor, do you have a comment?
00:21:39I would never do that.
00:21:41LA firefighters are our true heroes.
00:21:44I'm here to support them.
00:21:47That is very lovely.
00:21:49By the way, why are you here in a luxury hotel when the entire city is on fire?
00:21:54She was cutting a deal for a corporate takeover with a rich ass CEO.
00:21:59Rich ass CEO.
00:22:01Madam Mayor, is that true?
00:22:04And do you have a comment?
00:22:06As I said, I am here to support these brave men.
00:22:12Go firefighters!
00:22:14You know, many people are criticizing your complete and utter incompetence in the handling of the wildfires.
00:22:20In fact, people are pointing out the fact that you cut 17.5 million dollars from the fire department's budget right as the wildfires were starting.
00:22:30What is your response?
00:22:31I have no comment.
00:22:41No comment.
00:22:45You know, not all rich CEOs are assholes.
00:22:49Believe me, they're all aggressive narcissists. I've seen way too many of them.
00:22:52That's why I just want a regular guy like you.
00:22:55Okay. I don't think she's going to like me if I tell her who I am.
00:22:59So, hey. So, how much did she pay you to be her fake husband?
00:23:04Well, like a hundred bucks a day.
00:23:07Boy, you've really gotten desperate, huh?
00:23:09Hiring some nobody to pretend to be your husband just to cheat us.
00:23:14Just so you could comply to the will and take over the company.
00:23:17It's very clever.
00:23:20How many times do I have to tell you that this is my mother's company so it belongs to me?
00:23:27You'll never pull it off.
00:23:29Let's go.
00:23:35Chris, thank you for standing by me.
00:23:38You married me for a business deal and didn't tell me?
00:23:42It wasn't for a business deal. It was a lawyer thing.
00:23:47I had to get married by next week or else I wouldn't have been able to inherit my mother's company, but it...
00:23:53I'm such an idiot.
00:23:57What?
00:24:00It wasn't a fake marriage!
00:24:03Don't go!
00:24:05He's a fireman?
00:24:07That is hot.
00:24:10He's incredibly hot, even though he's not an actual firefighter.
00:24:13She thinks you're hot and you saved her life. That's a pretty good start.
00:24:18So, he saved her life and then you told him you needed a husband for the inheritance and then he said...
00:24:23Actually, I didn't tell him that.
00:24:27Yeah, but I didn't hear that from her.
00:24:29I'm sure she was planning to.
00:24:31But there was a lot going on, you know? I almost died in a fire and then I escaped the hospital and the next thing you know I'm kissing a guy that I had to...
00:24:37Oh no!
00:24:38And he kissed you back?
00:24:40Well, no. I mean, it was more than a kiss. I mean, it was like it was melting into him.
00:24:44She makes me feel like she's melting into me.
00:24:48I've never had anybody make me feel that way before.
00:24:51But then to find out that she wasn't being honest with me...
00:24:54You can still fix this, Margaret. Go talk to him.
00:24:58No!
00:25:00Talk to her.
00:25:01No! She was hiding things from me.
00:25:04What about you?
00:25:06I told her the truth that I am not a firefighter but was just to help her.
00:25:10Well, what about the fact that you're the CEO of the Fortune 500 company with a net worth of like one point...
00:25:15Yeah, I didn't tell her that part, alright?
00:25:18What if I talk to him and he just shuts me out?
00:25:21She's afraid you'll shut her out.
00:25:23Do you want to shut her out? Really?
00:25:25What do you really want, Margaret?
00:25:26Margaret, this is one of those moments in life where it's do or die.
00:25:30You need to open up to her!
00:25:31You need to open up to him!
00:25:46Thank you guys. I appreciate it.
00:25:49Let's do our part.
00:25:51Boss! Boss! Boss!
00:25:53Hi!
00:26:11Hi, Chris.
00:26:14I know you're busy with the fires.
00:26:17Hi, Margaret.
00:26:18Margaret.
00:26:19I have something I need to tell you.
00:26:21Now is probably not the best time.
00:26:22I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.
00:26:25I know that you're upset with me.
00:26:27I didn't mean to keep things from you.
00:26:28Everything just started happening so fast.
00:26:31I don't expect you to forgive me but...
00:26:35I needed you to know that I'm sorry.
00:26:36I need you to know that I'm sorry.
00:26:50Wait!
00:26:53How did you find me?
00:26:55I was just driving around. I figured you'd be near the fires.
00:26:58Do not do that again!
00:27:00I...
00:27:01Just stay away, okay?
00:27:08Just stay away, okay?
00:27:11If you want to contact me, call me and tell me where to meet you but please let it be a safe place.
00:27:18You mean you want me to contact you?
00:27:20I certainly don't want you driving around in a red zone. It's far too dangerous.
00:27:25Right. I'll be more careful next time.
00:27:27Will there be a next time?
00:27:29Will there be a next time?
00:27:32Listen.
00:27:34I didn't exactly tell you everything about me either, okay?
00:27:37Wow, you were so mad that you took your ring off, huh?
00:27:42But when I saw you in that fire...
00:27:45And then afterwards...
00:27:47And you kissed me?
00:27:49Okay, wait. Let's get one thing clear.
00:27:51I don't just go around kissing strange guys, okay?
00:27:54I know. Of course.
00:27:55Of course not. It was a special circumstance.
00:28:00I'm sure I'm never going to do anything like that in my life ever again.
00:28:03I know. It's just that my financial situation is not what...
00:28:06How do you do that?
00:28:07Do that thing where you make me melt into you?
00:28:15Me? I thought you did that. Isn't that what you do?
00:28:16No. It just happens. It's never happened to me before, but it only happens when I'm with you.
00:28:24How do you do that?
00:28:26Do that thing where you make me melt into you?
00:28:29Me? I thought you did that. Isn't that what you do?
00:28:33No. It just happens. It's never happened to me before, but it only happens when I'm with you.
00:28:38We were talking about something. What was that again?
00:29:00Money.
00:29:01Right. Money. Oh my God. Who cares about money? I don't care if you're poor or in debt or whatever.
00:29:10Well, that's the thing. I'm not actually...
00:29:12I don't want a rich man. I mean, my father is one and my stepmother and you've seen them.
00:29:18They're like a cross between Rita Repulsive and Mr. Krabs.
00:29:22Okay, but you don't think every rich person is like that, right?
00:29:26Look, let's just leave it at this. You don't have money and so what? I don't need all the details.
00:29:32Are you sure? You're not going to abandon me because I'm poor?
00:29:37Poor? You are the most handsome, smartest man that I have ever met.
00:29:43I will never abandon you.
00:29:46Let's just...
00:29:48They will be totally honest with each other from now on.
00:29:52Premise?
00:30:01What's next?
00:30:07Here's your new home. My husband.
00:30:13I am a lucky guy.
00:30:15Come on in.
00:30:16I'm sorry about the space. My company's struggling a little bit, so it's a bit modest, but...
00:30:31No, don't!
00:30:35Oh! Oh! Stop it! Stop it!
00:30:37Oh!
00:30:39Oh!
00:30:43I'm sorry. Um...
00:30:45Um...
00:30:46I could fix your pipes for you so that it doesn't explode again.
00:30:50Sure, of course.
00:30:56This is your problem.
00:30:57No problem.
00:31:06He's so hot.
00:31:16Should be all good.
00:31:21So...
00:31:22So...
00:31:52Sorry. I've got to take it. It's work.
00:32:05I... I know.
00:32:07This better be important.
00:32:09That's... a big move.
00:32:11I'll see what I can do.
00:32:13I'm so sorry. I've got to go to work.
00:32:16What?
00:32:17I know.
00:32:19Chris, what is it you actually do for a living?
00:32:29So, you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Moor Corp?
00:32:33Kind of.
00:32:34That's so cool. And it's going to stop the wildfires?
00:32:37We hope so.
00:32:40My team...
00:32:42Our team has been making some progress this week, but we're supposed to roll it out this weekend, so...
00:32:49There's not much time.
00:32:51Geez.
00:32:53I didn't know. You should have told me.
00:32:55I tried.
00:32:56Well, I'm sure you can do it, Chris.
00:32:58I'm rooting for you.
00:33:00You know, I'm not used to having someone at home rooting for me.
00:33:04It's new, but...
00:33:08It's nice.
00:33:18It's nice.
00:33:59I'll be right there.
00:34:22Something wrong? What happened?
00:34:25What happened is...
00:34:28We did it.
00:34:35We did it.
00:34:38It worked.
00:34:39Margaret, this is going to save lives.
00:34:43Oh, shoot.
00:34:46I have to go meet with the fire captain.
00:34:47This is the big test. We have to prove the suppression works.
00:34:50I'll see you later.
00:34:51Okay.
00:34:58Yes. The fires are going out. We are kicking this fire's ass. I mean, this is a breakthrough in science.
00:35:07We are making history, my friend.
00:35:09All right, guys. Grab every container we got. Bambi buckets, tsunami tanks. Get them filled and airborne.
00:35:17We are going to kill this fire now.
00:35:32Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:38No. We just tested a fire suppressant from Moore Corp. It's superior to that crap you've been sending us.
00:35:45L.A. is burning. We don't have time for your city hall bullshit.
00:35:49And I don't have time for your insubordination.
00:35:52How 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?
00:36:00I gave you an order.
00:36:03Load my fire suppressant or you're fired.
00:36:06Good. Fire.
00:36:08Because I will not be responsible for your disaster.
00:36:11Your wish is granted.
00:36:14You're fired.
00:36:18This is the end of Chief Taylor.
00:36:20No.
00:36:21I think this is the end of Mayor Davis.
00:36:24Yes. Remember I said it.
00:36:25Get out of here and take this piece of trash with you.
00:36:36Okay.
00:36:37Our deal has changed.
00:36:39One third is not enough.
00:36:42I want a two third cut.
00:36:43I need to make some money off of this thing.
00:36:46Don't you look so glum?
00:36:48I'm going to make you CEO of Foster Inc.
00:36:52I got a new plan.
00:36:55Come on.
00:36:56The door won't open itself.
00:37:04Congratulations on your victory.
00:37:06I'm so proud of you.
00:37:07Almost victory.
00:37:08The mayor shut us down.
00:37:12She's been colluding with your dad.
00:37:15We're finished.
00:37:17She's the whole city hall to back her up.
00:37:19Hey.
00:37:20Don't let them scare you.
00:37:21And bureaucrats like to live in these little protected hives.
00:37:25Once you crack those hives open, they scatter like roaches looking for the nearest drain pipe.
00:37:33Boss, I think your dad set up a board meeting behind your back for tomorrow.
00:37:39Copy that.
00:37:43Great.
00:37:43My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:46So it seems like we have a common enemy.
00:37:49Hmm?
00:37:50And?
00:37:51And I'm going to do you the favor of destroying him.
00:37:55How?
00:37:56Do you want me to put you on the board of directors?
00:37:58No, no.
00:38:00I want to be your assistant.
00:38:02What?
00:38:03I, I, I'm going to be your boss?
00:38:06Mm-hmm.
00:38:07I've got an idea.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:13All right, let's make this fast.
00:38:18Margaret cannot be the CEO of this company.
00:38:20I, I don't care what the will says.
00:38:22Even the mayor wants Margaret out.
00:38:25Shouldn't Margaret be here to at least speak for herself?
00:38:28Don't be dense.
00:38:29Margaret will be out before she knows what hit her.
00:38:31And Caitlin will be in.
00:38:33Any board meeting without my approval is illegal.
00:38:37You are not authorized.
00:38:39She is fully authorized.
00:38:41Oh, what the hell?
00:38:42Not you again.
00:38:44This is a board meeting.
00:38:46Only for employees of Foster Incorporated.
00:38:49Right.
00:38:49Well, why don't you all help me welcome our newest employee?
00:38:53I put Chris on the payroll this morning.
00:38:55He's my new personal assistant.
00:38:58That's strange.
00:38:59Assistant of what?
00:39:01Cleaning toilets?
00:39:02Margaret, this is just so like you.
00:39:07Soling our company with your low-life husband.
00:39:11Well, I'm glad you acknowledged me as Margaret's husband.
00:39:14As I cover our first point today on our agenda.
00:39:17Section 12-3-C.
00:39:20Margaret Foster will inherit Foster, Inc.
00:39:23So long as she is married by the designated date.
00:39:27So, this means that Margaret is now the owner of Foster Incorporated.
00:39:33From now on, you are going to call her Madam CEO.
00:39:38No.
00:39:39What are you going to get me one of those?
00:39:41When you get some class, don't bow.
00:39:44We're going to take him out right now.
00:39:46It doesn't change anything.
00:39:49That's right.
00:39:50This company has been hemorrhaging money because of you, Margaret.
00:39:54We 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.
00:40:00Me.
00:40:01And my brilliant new man.
00:40:04Steel can turn this company around like that.
00:40:07Tell them, honey.
00:40:10Get rid of her, and I'll double the company's revenue in four months.
00:40:14Backed by the mayor.
00:40:15My mom.
00:40:16100%.
00:40:17The mayor herself.
00:40:21That's exactly what we need.
00:40:23I like when you take control.
00:40:26Hold on.
00:40:27Margaret and I can also increase Foster Incorporated's revenues.
00:40:33He's going to double the revenue in four months.
00:40:36No one else can mention.
00:40:38Oh, we can.
00:40:40Chris, what are you saying?
00:40:42Stick with me, okay?
00:40:44What I'm about to say is a promise.
00:40:45A guarantee.
00:40:48Mr. Davis, you claim that you can double revenues in four months.
00:40:52Yes, I can.
00:40:54We will increase revenues tenfold in only one month.
00:41:00In only one month.
00:41:11No one can do that.
00:41:15I don't think you know how it works.
00:41:16It's crazy.
00:41:17We can't make that kind of promise.
00:41:19It's impossible.
00:41:20Margaret, follow my lead.
00:41:22Okay?
00:41:24This is ludicrous.
00:41:26Okay.
00:41:27How the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company revenue?
00:41:30Margaret 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.
00:41:58Well, there is no harm to let her try.
00:42:02What?
00:42:04You'd better not disappoint us, Margaret.
00:42:06Okay, okay.
00:42:06Let'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.
00:42:22And you disappear.
00:42:26Forever.
00:42:26Agreed.
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, where you belong.
00:42:39With your gutter husband.
00:42:42Got it.
00:42:43Got it.
00:42:51Chris, you can't make up stories like this.
00:42:53God, 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 is expecting you.
00:43:06Tomorrow.
00:43:07They are?
00:43:07You're, you're not joking?
00:43:10No.
00:43:11Oh my God, Chris, that's amazing.
00:43:14By the way, his rings are great.
00:43:17They almost look real.
00:43:19Yeah, almost.
00:43:21Calm down.
00:43:32We're not going to let your daughter beat you.
00:43:36There's no way she can beat me.
00:43:38Moore Corp's will never work with a nobody like her, right?
00:43:41Or what if she makes it happen?
00:43:43Then we'll stop her.
00:43:44How?
00:43:45Gina, I'm sending over the contact info for Christopher Moore, the CEO of Moore Corporation.
00:43:57Tell his office the mayor is coming to see him tomorrow.
00:44:00I expect him to be there.
00:44:05Either Mr. Moore does what I tell him to do, or 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 is a real mystery man.
00:44:23No public appearances.
00:44:24Then let's not forget, we rejected his fire suppressant, so 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.
00:44:54This PowerPoint isn't quite ready yet, I don't think.
00:45:04You need to grab their attention right away.
00:45:07And the flower you're writing, it's a business medium, not a poetry club.
00:45:14I mean, have you heard of Bullet Boys?
00:45:17Okay, all right, all right.
00:45:18Well, why don't you show me what you would do at the presentation?
00:45:22I like the pink.
00:45:28I don't think they're going to like me very much.
00:45:31The CEO loves you.
00:45:35The CEO of Moor Corp?
00:45:37How could 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.
00:45:52You're not a nobody.
00:45:54You're my husband.
00:45:55I'm a husband.
00:46:01The idea is great.
00:46:03It's just that these guys don't have the attention spans.
00:46:05Read, you're poetic.
00:46:06For the business proposal, we could do something along the lines.
00:46:08Let's have...
00:46:09Wow.
00:46:12We are.
00:46:13We are.
00:46:13We are.
00:46:14We are.
00:46:14We are.
00:46:14We are.
00:46:15We are.
00:46:15We are.
00:46:16We are.
00:46:16Today, we are going to be talking about...
00:46:19Do you feel like you're giving a school presentation?
00:46:21We're playing Twister?
00:46:24I'm...
00:46:24Dramatic fact.
00:46:26Okay.
00:46:26I'm pulling their attention.
00:46:27You are, exactly.
00:46:28It's acting.
00:46:28Jordan's up.
00:46:30Good.
00:46:31Good.
00:46:31Talking about my presentation that I have.
00:46:37Yeah.
00:46:38Good morning, boss.
00:46:48I mean, boxes of mints are on the table if 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 and he's my...
00:47:08...manager.
00:47:13Do you feel ready?
00:47:14I think so.
00:47:15You need to be happy.
00:47:16It's all right.
00:47:19I need to just say what a meeting do.
00:47:21I have an agreement to sign.
00:47:25She still doesn't know who you are.
00:47:27Copy that.
00:47:28I'll set up the meeting now.
00:47:29Oh, and the mayor wants to meet you.
00:47:32Of 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?
00:47:37Uh...
00:47:38Surprise.
00:47:41What's the surprise?
00:47:42Uh, someone else wants a meeting, but they are just going to have to wait.
00:47:53We have been waiting here for half an hour.
00:47:56Yes, that'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.
00:48:09Don't you have more important things to do right now?
00:48:11How dare you?
00:48:12How dare you?
00:48:13You are just a useless office girl.
00:48:17Now, tell Mr. Moore that I insist...
00:48:21Good morning, Mr. Moore.
00:48:32That's him!
00:48:36Oh, my God.
00:48:39Can you believe they let common street trash in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:43Excuse me, why did you call him Mr. Moore?
00:48:52Oh, 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.
00:49:05Okay, I might have underestimated you, okay?
00:49:06But don't you get delusional.
00:49:08Whoever you're meeting has to be a low-level lackey.
00:49:11Let's get real.
00:49:11The mayor and I are meeting the CEO.
00:49:15Stall them.
00:49:16Which means you have zero chance of ever beating me.
00:49:22Got it?
00:49:22Uh, Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:27Do you mind waiting here just a bit longer?
00:49:29Mmm.
00:49:30Sorry 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.
00:49:37That's very professional.
00:49:39I think Moore Corp is really going to like it.
00:49:43I'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.
00:50:02Um, thank you all for meeting with me today.
00:50:05Um, my name is Marvin Foster and I will...
00:50:09And I would love to work with you.
00:50:21Congratulations.
00:50:21He still isn't here?
00:50:35This is outrageous!
00:50:37Mr. Moore is on the way, but...
00:50:39You know, L.A. traffic plus the fires make it even worse.
00:50:43Oh, excuse me.
00:50:51Sorry to interrupt your indignation, but do you have a sheet protector that I could use?
00:50:55I just signed a contract and I don't want to get it stained or anything.
00:50:59Oh, congratulations, Ms. Foster.
00:51:00Of course.
00:51:01Yeah, okay.
00:51:01Quit playing games.
00:51:03You didn't sign any contract.
00:51:05Well, unfortunately for you, I did.
00:51:07And 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.
00:51:21You must be so proud of your daughter, Dad.
00:51:26Call me that!
00:51:27I will not let you do this.
00:51:31By the way, what are your friends showing up?
00:51:33Three, two, one...
00:51:37Madam Mayor, what do you have to say about the new fires that just broke out?
00:51:44Oh no, not again.
00:51:48You'll have to schedule an interview with my press team.
00:51:51I don't have time for this right now.
00:51:53Oh, well, 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?
00:52:00It is completely unfair that you are judging me.
00:52:03I am working every minute on this.
00:52:06But you rejected more corpse 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.
00:52:18Oh, Mr. Foster, it's you.
00:52:20We 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.
00:52:30Uh, that is complete nonsense.
00:52:32Complete 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 as a paid consultant for city contractors.
00:52:46So much corruption, so little time.
00:52:49Let's go.
00:52:50Yeah, yeah, right now.
00:52:51Let's go.
00:52:51Wait, wait, Madam Mayor, just one more.
00:52:53For the people.
00:52:54Last question about your personal records.
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 showing the city is paying triple for the fire suppressant.
00:53:14You know,
00:53:15this begs the question, Madam Mayor.
00:53:16You were perfect in today's meeting.
00:53:18Yeah, but the CEO, Mr. Moore, didn't show up.
00:53:23I wonder what he's like.
00:53:24Probably just some rich a-hole.
00:53:30That's what you said, remember?
00:53:32Yeah, but this 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, uh, might try to steal you from me.
00:53:46Oh, that is not gonna 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.
00:53:58I'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.
00:54:04I can be the rock of your life now.
00:54:10I 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.
00:54:37In the crowd, in the club, at the bar, yeah, what's up?
00:54:42I saw you cross the road, yeah, glowing in the moonlight.
00:54:47I don't know where you've been, but I'm glad that you're here.
00:54:51When I take you by the hand, I'll read you to the dance floor.
00:54:57Girl, it's our time, just you and I.
00:55:02Don't, I don't hide.
00:55:05No, I'll do it right.
00:55:09We got all right.
00:55:11I'll take you so high, yeah.
00:55:16Baby, let me love you.
00:55:19Let me love you.
00:55:21Baby, let me love you.
00:55:29You 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 suppressant 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?
00:56:25Are you sure Amoral Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:28Are you sure Amoral Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:38A hundred percent.
00:56:40Why would they shell out cash to someone like that?
00:56:43Because a down payment of $30 million just landed in our corporate account.
00:56:49From Amoral Corp.
00:56:52Ooh, long again, Dad.
00:56:56Seems like you're making a real habit out of that.
00:56:59Just you wait.
00:57:00Once they see that my suppressant is superior,
00:57:03all of this
00:57:04is going to be all gone.
00:57:08Margaret, 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.
00:57:26Today's the day
00:57:27that we prove our suppressant is 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?
00:57:42No.
00:57:44Make sure you follow my commands.
00:57:47It'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.
00:58:07Remember?
00:58:08Well, for a regular guy,
00:58:09you 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.
00:58:32That'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.
00:58:46It's too late.
00:58:47The pain loads have all been dropped.
00:58:49Good God.
00:58:51It's coming our direction.
00:58:52You're an idiot.
00:58:53If this reaches us,
00:58:55everything here is going to blow sky high.
00:58:58Oh.
00:59:00No, but how do half-quarters like this
00:59:02get control of the city?
00:59:03We've got to do something about this.
00:59:05No.
00:59:07I'll figure something out,
00:59:07but first, I've got to get you to safety.
00:59:09Come on.
00:59:09Okay.
00:59:10Come on.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:11Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:14Okay.
00:59:14Okay.
00:59:14Okay.
00:59:15Okay.
00:59:15Okay.
00:59:15Okay.
00:59:16Okay.
00:59:16Okay.
00:59:16Okay.
00:59:16Okay.
00:59:17Okay.
00:59:17Okay.
00:59:18And be careful.
00:59:19You need to be careful, too, Chris.
00:59:21You're not fireproof, you know.
00:59:25What are you doing here?
00:59:26Step ahead of you.
00:59:27Thought you might need my help.
00:59:30Okay.
00:59:31Yeah, I've got a few things you 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...
00:59:41I'm...
00:59:43As your manager,
00:59:44I have to look after my employees.
00:59:46Why, I might even give you a raise next year, Chris.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:50Hmm.
00:59:53Just stay here.
00:59:54Keep a watch on the fire alerts, okay?
00:59:57I will call my people, our people, to protect you.
01:00:04Tomorrow.
01:00:05Call Caps on fire and have them come to Margaret's house immediately.
01:00:12Really?
01:00:12You didn't even do that for your own house, which is worth like a hundred million dollars.
01:00:16Just do it, okay?
01:00:17Okay.
01:00:18I'm only saying her house is worth like half a million.
01:00:22The cost of the service is 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.
01:00:40Fire Protection Service.
01:00:43Where'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 with just two words.
01:00:58More Corp.
01:01:00Okay?
01:01:01We buy all their fire suppressant.
01:01:03You know, very hush-hush.
01:01:05And then you get 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.
01:01:12But Margaret can't.
01:01:16And she is still my daughter.
01:01:23My critics are politically motivated.
01:01:26We have the fires completely under control.
01:01:30This is bullshit.
01:01:31I grew up in Los Angeles.
01:01:32I played in these parks and in these playgrounds.
01:01:42Not to watch it all burn down because these fools won't use a fire suppressant that works.
01:01:48Margaret!
01:01:48I hope you don't mind me interrupting, Mr. Whitman.
01:02:01Huh?
01:02:02Oh, yes.
01:02:03Well, yes, it's my office.
01:02:06But, you know, if it's important.
01:02:07It is.
01:02:08Chris, my father called.
01:02:11He wants something.
01:02:15My father called.
01:02:16He wants something.
01:02:18The answer is no.
01:02:20If there's something that your dad wants, it's probably bad.
01:02:23Maybe not this time.
01:02:24He wants to call a truce.
01:02:26It's very unusual for Mr. Moore to grant a meeting on such short notice.
01:02:35You'll need to be quick.
01:02:37Right.
01:02:38Mr. Moore is a very private man, and this meeting is entirely confidential.
01:02:41Do not try to look at his face.
01:02:45Talk.
01:02:45Well, uh, to be a vendor in this city, you have to go through lots of protocols, and that
01:02:53takes time.
01:02:54We don't have time.
01:02:57Exactly.
01:02:59You see, Mr. Foster's company is already an approved vendor, and 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, Mr. Moore.
01:03:13So, what's your price?
01:03:16Free.
01:03:18But you have to answer this one question.
01:03:20Why are you doing this?
01:03:24Well, we were just concerned for the sake...
01:03:28Cut the bullshit!
01:03:30Speak to me straight, or get out.
01:03:34Okay.
01:03:37Oh, okay.
01:03:38Let's put our cards on the table.
01:03:39We'll put our cards on the table.
01:03:45We're doing this because our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:03:51It made the fires worse.
01:03:54If the public finds out, we're screwed.
01:03:57So, we'd like to use the Moore Corps fire suppressant, but you can't tell anyone.
01:04:04They have to believe we made it.
01:04:07If you agree, I will guarantee permission of the shopping mall you applied for in downtown LA.
01:04:16Deal?
01:04:19Deal.
01:04:21We'll deliver 2,000 tons of the suppressant this afternoon, but you must deploy it immediately.
01:04:27Fine.
01:04:30Just to confirm, what's the price?
01:04:35Zero.
01:04:37You don't pay a penny.
01:04:40Well, that sounds like a win-win.
01:04:43Cut the formalities.
01:04:45We're done here.
01:04:46Okay, thanks.
01:04:56This guy's a prime idiot.
01:04:58He gives us for free.
01:05:00He's a billionaire, you fool.
01:05:03He doesn't care about small money.
01:05:06I knew he wanted to build that mall.
01:05:08That's how I got him.
01:05:10I don't understand.
01:05:12Why did you give it to them for free?
01:05:13Because I got exactly what I wanted.
01:05:21Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:05:24It made the fire worse.
01:05:32It's been an hour.
01:05:34Why haven't we gotten any word?
01:05:36It's been 20 minutes.
01:05:38The pilots need time to confirm.
01:05:39Mrs. Mayor, it worked.
01:05:41It's like a miracle.
01:05:44Morcorp Suppressant is...
01:05:45Don't say Morcorp.
01:05:48No one is to know where it's from.
01:05:51As far as the world is concerned,
01:05:54it's our suppressant.
01:05:58Got it?
01:05:59Yes.
01:06:00Got it.
01:06:01No problem.
01:06:02You know how much money this is going to make us.
01:06:10You are going to be known as the mayor who saved the city.
01:06:17And you are going to win the next election by a landslide.
01:06:22You are going to be known as the mayor who saved the city.
01:06:23Exactly.
01:06:30Gina, arrange a press conference for tomorrow.
01:06:34We are going to let everyone know I saved Los Angeles.
01:06:39Every news outlet is saying the same thing.
01:06:49It's not a fluke.
01:06:51The first time in a week, the fires are retreating.
01:06:55What about the suppressant?
01:06:57They've dropped all of it.
01:06:58And they want more.
01:06:59The winds have even died down.
01:07:02It's like nature is on our side now.
01:07:03Oh, finally.
01:07:10Finally.
01:07:13The mayor is calling a press conference.
01:07:15You know she's going to take credit for stopping the fires.
01:07:18I know she's going to try.
01:07:21Oh, what about Margaret?
01:07:23This is not good, boss.
01:07:25She really thinks I run more court.
01:07:27I don't know why.
01:07:29You are entirely unconvincing.
01:07:30Totally convincing.
01:07:34What you need is some acting classes.
01:07:38Don't you think it's time to let her in on this?
01:07:41As a matter of fact, I've got it all planned out for tonight.
01:07:45One step ahead of you, boss.
01:07:50Margaret, I have to tell you something.
01:07:52It's my father trying to sabotage me again.
01:07:54You know, I'm not afraid of him.
01:07:55No, it's not like that.
01:07:58It's about your husband.
01:07:59My husband, he is totally overprotective.
01:08:12You know that I had to convince him that it was safe enough for me to come into my own office.
01:08:17Margaret, it's about those rings.
01:08:19I have a surprise for you tonight, sweetheart.
01:08:33Two dozen fresh roses.
01:08:35Noki de la Luna.
01:08:37Oh, and I can finally tell you those rings on your finger are real.
01:08:41They are a little ridiculous.
01:08:46I mean, who has diamonds this size?
01:08:48Well, that's the thing.
01:08:50Some people do have diamonds that size.
01:08:53There's a name for those people.
01:08:56Billionaires.
01:08:57Isabel, what are you talking about?
01:09:00Margaret, I've got something to tell you.
01:09:03Now, I would have told you sooner,
01:09:04but you hate rich people so much that
01:09:07I was afraid you would get your guillotine out.
01:09:11How much do you know about Moore Corp's CEO, Christopher Moore?
01:09:16He's some rich guy?
01:09:18Who never met with you because he doesn't make public appearances.
01:09:22Yeah, so?
01:09:25Do you remember that private investigator we used
01:09:27to look into that auditing glitch last year?
01:09:29Good God, Isabel, would you just tell me what you're talking about?
01:09:32I asked the P.I. to trace known records of Moore.
01:09:35There was very little there,
01:09:38but he did find one tidbit.
01:09:40Moore purchased some jewelry.
01:09:43Okay, yeah.
01:09:44Rich guys buy jewelry, so what?
01:09:47So?
01:09:49This is what he bought.
01:09:52Look familiar?
01:09:53Yeah, those look like my rings.
01:09:55So, he bought the real ones,
01:09:57and Chris bought coffees.
01:09:59Well, this is the ledger entry.
01:10:01Look at the date.
01:10:03He bought these in L.A.
01:10:05the same day that Chris gave you those.
01:10:14So that means my husband is...
01:10:17Christopher Moore?
01:10:19So, you're making a fire suppressant
01:10:21because you work for Moore Corp?
01:10:23Kind of.
01:10:24Margaret is a master of outreach.
01:10:26She will set up a strategic partnership
01:10:28with the Moore Corporation.
01:10:30Good morning, Mr. Moore.
01:10:31I trusted him!
01:10:32How many times am I going to be lied to in my life?
01:10:35Margaret, your husband's a billionaire.
01:10:38Who cares about you?
01:10:40Every woman in L.A. wants to be you.
01:10:42No!
01:10:42No, this is so wrong!
01:10:44I...
01:10:44Okay.
01:10:50Cash was in the oven.
01:10:52Salads in the fridge.
01:10:54Jean-Fillard Beaujolais on the chill.
01:11:04Now, I just have the prayer
01:11:05that you'll listen to me with an open mind.
01:11:06Margaret, I have something to tell you.
01:11:19Margaret, I have something to tell you.
01:11:23Margaret, I...
01:11:24Don't say another word.
01:11:28Just leave.
01:11:32You're a liar!
01:11:33I am proud to announce that the fires
01:11:52that have been ravaging this city
01:11:54are now extinguished.
01:11:58These fires are out because of our brave mayor,
01:12:01Michelle Davis.
01:12:05And I just want to say thank you to the firefighters.
01:12:08I am the one who put out these fires.
01:12:13Girl, you really kicked a billionaire out of your house?
01:12:18He lied to me.
01:12:19I've had enough betrayal for an entire lifetime.
01:12:21I'm sure he had his reasons.
01:12:23He didn't mean to hurt you, Margaret.
01:12:25Yeah, well, it hurts anyway.
01:12:28And I would like to acknowledge myself
01:12:36for the courage, the vision,
01:12:40and the leadership
01:12:41that great leaders show
01:12:44when they're leading.
01:12:48Cringe.
01:12:49You cannot overstate how stupid she is.
01:12:51Can I just say one more thing?
01:12:54No, you cannot.
01:12:56The fire suppressant
01:12:58that put out the fires
01:13:00was created by me
01:13:02and deployed at my command.
01:13:08Yes, yes, yes, thank you.
01:13:10It's me who saved L.A.
01:13:14Support me.
01:13:15Vote for me.
01:13:17Y'all know you can trust me.
01:13:23God bless...
01:13:25Ladies and gentlemen,
01:13:28excuse me.
01:13:34Everything that you have just heard
01:13:36is a fairy tale.
01:13:38Fiction.
01:13:40A lie.
01:13:42Oh my goodness.
01:13:44Is that your billionaire husband?
01:13:46The mayor has been lying to you all.
01:13:53Pay no attention to this man.
01:13:56Security!
01:13:57Have him removed.
01:13:58Y'all pay no attention to this.
01:14:00There's nothing to see here.
01:14:02The firemen are the true heroes
01:14:04who saved this city.
01:14:05The mayor has time and time again
01:14:07tried to stop them.
01:14:09That is bullshit.
01:14:11Security!
01:14:12Do your jobs!
01:14:13No, no, no.
01:14:14Let him speak.
01:14:15It's a free country.
01:14:16Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:18Yeah, we want a statement.
01:14:19Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:20Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:21Mayor Davis,
01:14:22why are you afraid of this man?
01:14:23Are you hiding something?
01:14:25Of course not.
01:14:27She's afraid of me
01:14:28because she knows
01:14:28that I can tell you all right now
01:14:30what actually happened.
01:14:31And why should we listen to you?
01:14:33Because the fires of President
01:14:36that actually put out the fires
01:14:38was supplied by Moor Court.
01:14:40And I am the CEO
01:14:41of Moor Court.
01:14:45I am Christopher Moore.
01:14:47Well, he's not hiding
01:14:49his identity anymore.
01:14:50He's taking on the whole city.
01:14:53Instead of trying to put the fires out,
01:14:55the mayor and her collaborators
01:14:56were profiting off of them.
01:14:59I want to watch this live.
01:15:01You coming?
01:15:03No.
01:15:10Yes?
01:15:10Hold on, Isabel.
01:15:11My company
01:15:16has been trying to assist
01:15:17the firefighters.
01:15:18He's the CEO of Moor Court?
01:15:21Why didn't you tell me,
01:15:22you dumbass?
01:15:23If we don't stop him,
01:15:24we're all screwed.
01:15:26Then do something to stop him.
01:15:27The mayor threatened us
01:15:28and time and time again
01:15:30tried to get in our way.
01:15:31That is not true.
01:15:34Look, I received a medal
01:15:36for all of my hard work
01:15:38in putting out those fires.
01:15:39I wouldn't have given myself
01:15:41this medal
01:15:42if I didn't deserve it.
01:15:44Mr. Moore,
01:15:45I think there's been
01:15:45a little misunderstanding
01:15:47that I speak to you
01:15:48privately.
01:15:50The mayor wanted me
01:15:51to remind you
01:15:52about the permission
01:15:54for the shopping mall.
01:15:57Oh, of course.
01:15:58That reminds me.
01:16:00Whitman!
01:16:01Let's play them
01:16:02that video we brought.
01:16:03Let's play them
01:16:03that video we brought.
01:16:09Our fire suppressant
01:16:11didn't work.
01:16:12It made the fires worse.
01:16:15If the public finds out,
01:16:17we are screwed.
01:16:19Why are you hiding
01:16:20the truth from the citizens
01:16:21in your own city?
01:16:23Okay, this
01:16:24is a complete fabrication.
01:16:26I mean, look at that.
01:16:27It's an AIGC deepfake.
01:16:30I have something
01:16:31to say about that.
01:16:32No.
01:16:41No!
01:16:43This man has
01:16:44no business here.
01:16:45He was fired
01:16:46for dereliction of duty.
01:16:49Officers!
01:16:50Remove him!
01:16:55Are you going to stop?
01:16:59No search.
01:17:00We'll clear the way.
01:17:03Everyone,
01:17:04wait for Chief Taylor
01:17:05and his men.
01:17:07They're heroes.
01:17:13They're heroes.
01:17:14Stop them!
01:17:15That's an order!
01:17:18Now, uh...
01:17:18You've got to stop.
01:17:19You guys can't come up here.
01:17:21This is...
01:17:22This is a violation.
01:17:24Don't you touch me!
01:17:28We want Chief Taylor
01:17:30reinstating.
01:17:31Yeah!
01:17:32That's right!
01:17:34Taylor!
01:17:34Taylor!
01:17:35Taylor!
01:17:36Taylor!
01:17:36Taylor!
01:17:37Taylor!
01:17:37Taylor!
01:17:38Taylor!
01:17:38Taylor!
01:17:39Shut up!
01:17:42All of you
01:17:43are fired!
01:17:44No!
01:17:44You can't do that!
01:17:46Let him speak!
01:17:50Stop touching me!
01:17:52Ladies and gentlemen,
01:17:53the reason I was dismissed
01:17:55is because I refused
01:17:56to use the mayor's
01:17:58defective fire suppressant.
01:18:00You can't prove that!
01:18:03Actually,
01:18:04I can.
01:18:05All the data
01:18:05is in these documents.
01:18:09They include
01:18:10sworn testimony
01:18:11from the pilots
01:18:12who were eyewitnesses.
01:18:14Mayor Davis,
01:18:16this is a huge scandal.
01:18:17You should resign.
01:18:19Get out of here!
01:18:20No!
01:18:21Shh!
01:18:22No!
01:18:23Listen to me!
01:18:24Stop it!
01:18:25Stop it!
01:18:27Stop it!
01:18:28Stop it!
01:18:29Stop it!
01:18:30Stop it!
01:18:30Stop it!
01:18:31Stop!
01:18:32Stop it!
01:18:32Stop it!
01:18:33Yeah!
01:18:34Yay!
01:18:34Before we wrap this up, I'd like to share something personal.
01:18:48Before we wrap this up, I'd like to share something personal with you all.
01:18:53Chief Taylor, if you don't mind, go ahead.
01:18:58We've all lived through this horrible disaster, but in the midst of tragedy, sometimes you
01:19:06can find clarity, beauty, and even love.
01:19:11The catastrophe of these LA wildfires has brought much darkness, but it's also brought
01:19:18people together.
01:19:19It brought a woman with a beautiful heart into my life, and if I can take a moment of
01:19:24your time, I'd like to try to get a message to her.
01:19:28Margaret, I love you.
01:19:33It hurts to not be with you.
01:19:36I know I kept things from you, and that was not right.
01:19:40I don't expect you to forgive me, but if I'm being honest, you're the only person I'll
01:19:46ever love.
01:19:47LA is full of idols and superstars, but you, you're the only superstar I've ever wanted
01:19:56or will ever want.
01:19:59The fires may be out now, but there's a fire in my heart that will never stop burning.
01:20:06It will burn forever for you.
01:20:10So, if you can find it in your heart to forgive me, no matter how much time it takes, I will
01:20:20be waiting.
01:20:21I don't know where you are, but I hope somehow you've heard my message.
01:20:29I heard it.
01:20:30Margaret.
01:20:31Last time you proposed to me.
01:20:32Now I'm proposing to you.
01:20:33Margaret.
01:20:34Will you marry me and be my wife?
01:20:38Margaret.
01:20:39Will you marry me and be my wife?
01:21:07You're doing that melting thing again.
01:21:34Mom, that's not good.
01:21:37Christopher Moore is accusing you of embezzlement, money laundering, securities fraud?
01:21:41I will make his life a living hell!
01:21:45Michelle Davis, you're under arrest on 12 counts of corruption.
01:21:50Are you insane?
01:21:52You just committed career suicide.
01:21:55You're fired!
01:21:57You're all fired!
01:21:59She's the mayor, and you are under arrest for interfering with law enforcement.
01:22:04No!
01:22:05Let's go! Take them both!
01:22:06What have I done?
01:22:07You have the right to remain silent.
01:22:08I fired you!
01:22:09Well, you're gonna regret this.
01:22:13Hurry up. We need to run. The police will be here soon.
01:22:16Why should I leave? I don't want to go anywhere!
01:22:19I've got three tickets to Venezuela. You get to sit by the window. We have to rebuild our lives there.
01:22:25Don't worry. I have plenty of cash, and I have a buyer lineup for the house.
01:22:30Apologies. But you can't sell something that's not rightfully yours.
01:22:36What the hell is going on here?
01:22:38You can't sell my mother's house because you acquired it illegally.
01:22:42Margaret. My daughter. I wasn't gonna sell it. It belongs to you.
01:22:50Your mother's company, her home, it's all yours.
01:22:54Chris. Mr. Moore. I'm your father-in-law. I'm almost 60. You don't want to put me away, do you?
01:23:04You know, you have a good point, Dad.
01:23:07Oh, wait. You asked me specifically to not call you that.
01:23:11You know, in fact, since the day that I met you, you've done nothing but tried to destroy your own daughter.
01:23:16You're paying for what you did, Dad.
01:23:19Hey, Abby. How dare you put your own father in jail? You are an ungrateful little bitch.
01:23:31Oh, no. I forgot. You can't leave the country until the trial's over.
01:23:36Oh, and by the way, your assets are frozen so you can't stay at this hotel.
01:23:49But don't worry. We've made arrangements for you to stay at a different place.
01:23:54What other arrangements?
01:23:57You know that Motel 6 right around the corner?
01:23:59Ah! What? Oh, my God.
01:24:01No! No, no, no!
01:24:04No!
01:24:09Those cheating scumbags can't get their hands on this house ever again.
01:24:13I bet your mom was an amazing person. And I'm sure she loved you so much.
01:24:23She always wanted me to get married in her wedding dress.
01:24:26She'd say no matter where she was, she'd be able to feel it. Heart to heart. What do you think?
01:24:43I think you are so radiant that she can most certainly see your glow all the way from heaven.
01:24:48Well, if she is really looking down, then she'll be very glad to know that I found a much better man.
01:24:56And I bet she'd be so excited to know that I'm marrying a...
01:25:00A bloody letter?
01:25:02No. A fireman.
