00:00What's up?
00:02What's up?
00:04Shit!
00:08No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:10No, the system crashed the main upload!
00:12The collection was the wrong season!
00:14Wrong everything!
00:16Come on, Ron!
00:18Wait until 48 hours!
00:20The production starts with these botched designs,
00:22they're all dead!
00:24Not just fire!
00:26The company collapses our careers are over!
00:30Come out here and talk to us!
00:32We have 8 million tied up in this election!
00:34Prepare the Bastion at your boat!
00:36Right now!
00:38One word for me, your age is poison!
00:40Enough!
00:54Nick!
00:56Enough.
00:58Nick!
01:00Mia, Japanese Indigo.
01:04Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:08Pauline, and Liz Vultures.
01:16Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:2028 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
01:2427 now. Tick tock.
01:46Engine. Crisis averted.
01:48I swear to God, you're not human. 27 minutes.
01:52Holy shit. Pre-orders are flying in. This will shatter every record.
02:04Are you okay?
02:06Just Sparks and Hicks, nothing to do.
02:12Oh my god, your water broke.
02:14Your water broke.
02:22Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:26Multi-tasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:30Dad called.
02:32He wanted to know if we should come, but...
02:34I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since...
02:38He decided that his assistance man was more comfortable than ours.
02:42That's my girl.
02:44No.
02:54The company's yours now, Holly.
02:56But there's...
02:58a condition.
03:00We need to slash costs.
03:02Immediately.
03:04That's it without leave.
03:08Oh, Dad.
03:10I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:12Well, just remember.
03:14We'll ever clean up that Malayan disaster...
03:16and get immunity.
03:18In fact, um...
03:20They deserve a promotion.
03:26No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:34Boss, the Mulan collection crisis? A burden.
03:38Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:40Ew, you saved the entire collection. Impressive.
03:44Oh, actually...
03:46I'm gonna make you the new creative director.
03:48Starting today.
03:50Oh, my God. Is this really happening?
03:52She's offering Victoria's job?
03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
04:04But, Victoria...
04:05Don't worry about her.
04:06You're not useless.
04:07I'm gonna just have fire.
04:13You know that collection I just rescued up?
04:16I hid something in the design.
04:18I hid something in the design.
04:20Your initials and now little graces.
04:22Who have right in the fabric.
04:28And that can give a long runway?
04:30Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:34Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:36We have to.
04:38We have to.
04:40We're going to that private school.
04:42No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:46This job will keep us apart.
04:48I love you, Mom.
04:50I love you, Mom.
05:00Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
05:06After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:10Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
05:26What the hell?
05:36Listen up, everyone.
05:38Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:40Effective immediately.
05:42You can't just do that.
05:44She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:46There are laws against this.
05:48Vic worked while in labor.
05:50She's a creative backbone of his own adult.
05:54Maternity leave, medical insurance.
05:56These preggos are bleeding us dry.
05:58Everything okay here?
06:04Great timing.
06:06Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:08Clear out your desk now.
06:10You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:22I saved this company three times when your father could have been here.
06:26Three times.
06:30Well...
06:32That's ancient history.
06:34The world wants fresh blood.
06:36I'm eager to save the entire long collection.
06:44What?
06:45I'm the one who...
06:48Me or you?
06:51Feel that curve?
06:52That's a signature.
06:54That's what makes it be some other.
07:01How could you?
07:02I taught you everything you know.
07:06I wish things were different, Vic.
07:08I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:22What happens to my team?
07:24Miranda pulled all of matters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:30These are so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:34Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:38These jobs are their lifelines.
07:40Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:44You can't just throw them away.
07:46Actually, legally speaking we can.
07:48No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
07:52That's corporate America for you.
07:54Or we can shift the math.
08:00You sign.
08:02They stay.
08:03The budget works out.
08:04Think of it as...
08:06Taking one for the team.
08:08Noelle is still drowning in her husband's guts.
08:10Aunt Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:12They can't lose their jobs.
08:14Come on, babe.
08:15You say you care about them.
08:16Prove it.
08:17They can't lose their jobs.
08:23Come on, babe, because they ain't care of them.
08:25Prove it.
08:47No.
09:01Five breaths.
09:03That's my seventh package for 15 years, that's what I'm worth to-
09:17Be careful, I got you.
09:29Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:33Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:47So, it's true. Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving we saw in the Lord's Mulan collection.
10:00How do you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:07Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:12What are you getting at exactly?
10:15I'm talking about you and me.
10:19Partners.
10:21Your genius, my money.
10:24No corporate BS.
10:27No one holding you back.
10:33I've found a baby to think about now.
10:36And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:41Just saying.
10:44Yes.
10:46Vincent Chevalier, wow.
10:48We didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin and our corporate nemesis scrolling into the office.
10:53Got your spine here?
10:57Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here.
11:01Soft landing.
11:03Triple her salary, corner office.
11:05Before the vulture's LB or Chanel swooping.
11:10I don't see your dumpster diving now.
11:13Rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:17Wow, that's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:21I mean the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:27The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:31If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:36Strip.
11:37Shit, shit, shit, shit.
11:39What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:48Actually, those were my designs.
11:50What did you decide?
11:51The spring collection.
11:52The Cartier pieces.
11:53I designed them.
11:54Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
11:55Oops.
11:56Looks like you've been backing your own horse, Vincent.
11:57I thought you were better than this, Mia.
11:58Let me explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:03So what, sketches get past her all the time, it doesn't really squat.
12:04Maybe she was in the middle of, what do they call it?
12:05The dress designer?
12:06And the logo?
12:07No.
12:08No.
12:09No.
12:10No.
12:11No.
12:12No.
12:13No.
12:14No.
12:15No.
12:16No.
12:17No.
12:18No.
12:19No.
12:20No.
12:21No.
12:22No.
12:23No.
12:24No.
12:25No.
12:26No.
12:27No.
12:28No.
12:29No.
12:30No.
12:31No.
12:32No.
12:36And the logo?
12:38The E.W.
12:39Woven in Victoria's signature mark.
12:40It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:42Mom, Mia.
12:43Explain it.
12:44May we shut up.
12:48That's funny.
12:50All those pieces, from the Milana collection that mouse and everything, they all have pero
12:56E.W. and G.W.'s simply, too.
12:58Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter. Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:05It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
13:10Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
13:14Well Mia, tell them. Tell them you designed this. Tell them you saved Milan.
13:20The logo, it's... it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:27You lying little bitch!
13:29Black Promotions are saving the company.
13:36Look at the logo again. It's not EW or GW. It's actually two Ms.
13:44MM for McMichael, my last name.
13:48See? One M flipped. One upright. It's not for Grace or Emily. It's mine.
14:00That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:03Oh my gosh, she's right. It does look more like two Ms.
14:08You're manipulative.
14:09She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:14You learned well, Mia. Maybe too long.
14:18Come on. You'll regret this.
14:22Come on, Miss. We don't have to see today at home.
14:26Okay. Let me drive you home, man.
14:29But for hours outside.
14:31If I got this, you shouldn't be carrying any more.
14:35True.
14:36True.
14:39Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:42Just take care of my honor of Paula, will you?
14:48That's right. Get the hell out of my company.
14:51Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:53Call of Victoria.
14:59V.I.P. invitation, Paris Fashion Week.
15:06Front row. I think you'll find it.
15:09Enlightening.
15:18Every pregnant woman fired.
15:20All of us.
15:22Just like that.
15:24No severance.
15:25No warning.
15:26Nothing.
15:27But a box and a security escort.
15:34Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:38The determination here would have to be paid for your sign.
15:41The phone is my guardian star.
15:44Now, I'm not going to slash you again.
15:46The signs are eerily lighted.
15:49See, look up your legs closed.
16:01Oh my god, Mom.
16:03This is insane!
16:04I can't believe I actually hear!
16:06Victoria went to her, the nuclear pick.
16:09Your mom's basically a legend, you know that right?
16:11We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Marie Saint Leval.

19:22Wow! You gave her up.
19:25That's right. I did.
19:29I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:33Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
19:35Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
19:39Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight, he's her walking trust fund.
19:45Victoria's sleeping her way to the top.
19:48It's just so predictably desperate.
19:53You really don't understand real talent, do you?
19:58For those of you who don't know me, I'm Vincent Chevalier, CEO of Jeven.
20:06And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:12I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:16Your brilliance, your principles, your passion.
20:20Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:25Mom, did you know about this?
20:28I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:32But in the meantime, what I will do is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:38She won't let you down, boss.
20:44You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier. She's nothing but a has-been.
20:48The show's about to start. Your seats are waiting.
20:57Holy shit. The industry bold boy and the creative powerhouse together?
21:03Talk about a power couple. They can own the entire industry.
21:06This isn't over, bitch. Wait till we see what I've prepared for.
21:12You seriously didn't love my mom since high school?
21:25Some talents. You recognize me. Some people do.
21:34Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:44This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:47She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:50It's true. She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:57I've slaved away on those designs. Day and night.
22:02And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:09That's just particularly iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:13Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:16That's not Holly.
22:17Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:23Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:27Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:32That's her real design strategy.
22:34Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
22:37And those kids she's so proud of, who knows who their real fathers are.
22:42How get you?
22:43It's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
22:54Not now.
22:55The primary habits are disintegrating into the lights. The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:07We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:09Is this some kind of sick joke in them all? Are you canceling the show because you're incompetent?
23:14This is completely unprofessional.
23:17I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:20This is breach of contract.
23:21It's actually fixable.
23:22Paul, you can't seriously be kidding me about helping with back-stabbing vultures.
23:32Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:36Mason from Furrow appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:40Sources say the entire collection need to cancel, minutes before showtime.
23:43The question on everyone's mind, is this the end for the most prestigious fashioners?
23:52If this show doesn't happen, you're personally liable for the Breach Actors.
23:57We're talking millions, Holly.
24:00No millions.
24:07Ready?
24:08Hit this!
24:25Now!
24:27How? The fiber supplier must've sent us affected materials!
24:31I can't magically make you dresses in an hour!
24:35You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:38If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:42That's billionths of dollars.
24:45Then you better figure something out.
24:47Because if you don't, I'll never be fired.
24:50I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:03Miss Winter, how do you respond to accusations over design theft?
25:08Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:12Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:15And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:20We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:33Excuse me.
25:35Excuse me.
25:37It's okay.
25:38It'll be right.
25:45What do you want, Mia?
25:50Vic, I really need your help.
25:53Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
25:56Look.
25:57I know you're furious.
25:59I would be too.
26:00But think about Miranda and Philippe for a second.
26:04What about them?
26:05Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:07If we tank, they're done.
26:09Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:12Please.
26:13If you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out.
26:17Miranda and Holly are responsible for the show.
26:18Yes, absolutely.
26:19And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:20Please.
26:21Like, not for me.
26:22For that.
26:23That's weird.
26:24I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make or break show.
26:34What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:35They...
26:36They couldn't make it.
26:37Holly cut the travel budget.
26:38Is that right?
26:39Victoria.
26:40I know I don't deserve your help.
26:41They do.
26:42Fine.
26:43I'll help you.
26:44But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
26:45Not for you.
26:46Oh my god.
26:47It's Victoria Winter.
26:48It's Victoria Winter.
26:49Oh my god.
26:50It's Victoria Winter.
26:51Oh my god.
26:52It's Victoria Winter.
26:53Is that right?
26:54Is that right?
26:55Victoria.
26:56I know I don't deserve your help.
26:57They do.
26:58Fine.
26:59I'll help you.
27:00But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
27:01Not for you.
27:14Oh my god.
27:15It's Victoria Winter.
27:16The nuclear vec.
27:17I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:20Now.
27:27I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:29Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:31Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:38Do you miss work?
27:44Vincent.
27:45How did you...
27:46I figured you might need some supplies.
27:49So I had my assistant bring it over Joven's emergency kit.
27:53This is perfect, but Joven and Maison Navo are competitors.
28:00Why would you help them?
28:03I'm not helping them.
28:06I'm helping you.
28:07I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:12I have a design I've been saving.
28:14Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:17It's yours now.
28:18I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:19I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:23Then what do you want?
28:26You.
28:28What?
28:29You're a talent.
28:30You're a vision.
28:31Come and work as Joven.
28:32I'm in.
28:33I'll work for you.
28:34Just like that?
28:35Just like that.
28:36Now?
28:37Let me finish my final job for my solo bell.
28:43Just like that?
28:44Just like that.
28:45Now?
28:46Let me finish my final job for my solo bell.
28:49So I'm gonna get.
28:50I'mma get.
28:51I'mma get.
28:52I'mma get.
29:05I'mma get.
29:06I'm gonna get back.
29:09Don't let me shake you.
29:11I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:16She's doing this for what would taken up all day?
29:18What would've taken us hours?
29:20Whoa. No wonder they call it a nuclear vick.
29:24It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
29:28The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
29:36Five minutes to show time. We made it.
29:48Well? Do we call the plug or not?
29:54We're good. Everything's back on track.
29:57See? I knew firing Victoria was the right call. You've got twice your talent.
30:03Yeah. Right.
30:06This is exactly why I'm promoting you.
30:08Any big sizes do not make them.
30:10To Victoria. The real hero of the night.
30:31Mom, you're insane.
30:33I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:37Couldn't have done it without you.
30:40You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't help as an office romance.
30:50Well, well. Still hanging around.
30:53I gave you two matters to show your face at the after party. Fraud.
30:58Holly, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:02What are you talking about?
31:04Just ask the models. Any of them.
31:08Oh, and Mia.
31:10Don't forget about our agreement.
31:12About Miranda and Pauline.
31:13Right.
31:14Cool.
31:20Two new beginnings to show them.
31:22Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:23I want to help. With their education.
31:25What? This and that. That's too much. You better know each other.
31:27Victoria.
31:28Victoria, I've known you since we were 17. I remember watching you win that regional competition.
31:32In that silver dress. The one you made from scratch.
31:33I saw the way your eyes lit up.
31:34I saw the way your eyes lit up.
31:35I saw the way your eyes lit up.
31:36when you talked about changing the fashion world.
31:37changing the fashion world.
31:38changing the fashion world.
31:39That's right.
31:40You gotta go with us.
31:41You gotta go with us.
31:42You gotta go with us.
31:44You gotta go with us.
31:45I want to help. With our education.
31:47you since I was 17. I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver
31:55dress, the one you made from scratch. I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about
32:03changing the fashion world. You remember that? I remember everything. I have followed your
32:12career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again. Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:19You were married, and then you weren't. And then you were building your career. Timing was just, is that right? Until now.
32:32I have been away 20 years to do this.
32:46I should probably get this.
33:01Mia?
33:14God, I was so right about firing Victoria. That Milan disaster you turned around, absolute magic.
33:21And now I have an opportunity to complete you in the maps for good.
33:25Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:28Sean Gosling? The Sean Gosling?
33:34The very one, three-time Oscar winner, People's Sexies and Unalive, and if you play our cards right,
33:40the next face of Mia's only goes anywhere. They're taking pitches now. If he picks yours,
33:47this changes everything. For you, for the brand. Where it is, Jovan's in the right too.
33:53Landless, Vincent, and this is where Victoria are done.
34:01Seal the deal? I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:05I've got this, Holly. You won't regret it.
34:07God, what am I gonna do? I can't design menswear. I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:20Lorraine and Felina are gone too. I'm completely on my own.
34:25If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:33maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over it.
34:37Thanks for meeting me. I know things are complicated between us.
34:49You mentioned Miranda and Pauline? Cut to the chase.
35:04We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax. Miranda and Pauline are also detained.
35:12Miranda's excellent menswear. She can handle this without me.
35:15Please, wait. There's no to it.
35:17After Paris, Holly and someone to blame for the Faberic disaster.
35:21Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block. I've been fighting for them.
35:25Are you serious?
35:27Pauline's due any day now.
35:29Trust me, I know. This project is our only shot.
35:32If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them both.
35:35Have you worked with Sean before?
35:38No, but I've heard you have.
35:40Ages ago. I did a jacket for him from that gala.
35:45Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left Mason at all.
35:49Really? What concept?
35:55Well...
36:02I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:18Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:21I do.
36:23Actually, I took him with me when I left Mason on the boat.
36:26Wait. Miranda went on maternity leave last week. How exactly is she a part of this project?
36:34Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's liking her work from home.
36:40Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:44Of course, Vic.
36:45It's like Pauline and Rhett's jobs are on the line here.
36:51It was my day.
36:53Take all the time you need.
36:55Mia.
36:57Don't make me regret trusting you.
36:59Again.
37:00Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:20Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:24The Sean Gosson one with the black pads and lapels?
37:27That's the one. Can you check my home office? It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:34Got it. Grace is napping for the perfect timing.
37:38Thanks, sweetie. I just need to double check something about that.
37:44Shoulder.
37:48Mom, are you okay?
37:53Miranda? Vic?
37:57Mom, mom, what's going on?
38:04Emilia, I'll call you right back.
38:07Miranda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:12Girls don't beat themselves.
38:14You've met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
38:20Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the galsing project.
38:23What? Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:34No severance, no copper, nothing. Just gone.
38:38That's completely illegal.
38:41Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance laws.
38:46All at once. What are the odds, right?
38:49And Polly, marking nine shifts at 24 hours down here.
38:54Her sister, Becca Bielski, piled up.
39:03And Mia knew about all this.
39:05Mia, front row seat when Hal made an announcement.
39:10Didn't blink.
39:11To be said by her shiny new creative director title.
39:17She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
39:20Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:23What?
39:25That bitch!
39:28This ends now.
39:35Damn it!
39:41Mrs. Michael, this is right from Milan. We need a group of lighting.
39:46Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:58What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
40:01Victoria never treats us.
40:03I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:10Then where is she now?
40:11Gone. Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:24What the hell is going on here?
40:26Just a great disagreement. Everything is in control.
40:30The gossip is telling you something presentable.
40:33Of course, I'm just finalizing the city.
40:39Show me.
40:41It's not quite ready.
40:42Now.
40:49This is garbage.
40:51Absolute garbage.
40:53I just need a little more time.
40:54I don't have more time. This is Sean Gosselin we're talking about.
40:58If she'll then get this deal instead of us.
41:04What's that?
41:10It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:15I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil,
41:18get me when we design you tomorrow morning, or pack up your desk by lunch.
41:34I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:48Right on cue.
41:59Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:01Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:05The absolute nerve of this woman.
42:06And she'll get her sketch.
42:11And that's when we spin the trap.
42:12You're early.
42:25Vic, I really need that sketch.
42:28I said I'd help, not hand over my design.
42:39Polly's all over me about this.
42:42If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:45Still lying, you'll never learn.
42:50Guess it's payback time.
42:52So, do you want my help or not?
42:55I can walk you through it.
42:56Your design could be just as good.
42:58She's such a snake.
43:02Vic, my stomach is killing me.
43:04Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:06It's fine, but don't touch anything.
43:23You just let her take your work?
43:53She worked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
43:58You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:02Go after the same clients.
44:04Show them what real design looks like.
44:07We're not out yet.
44:18I'm happy.
44:19I'm happy.
44:20I'm happy.
44:20I'm happy.
44:21There's a revolution room.
44:26Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:29You're welcome, Mom.
44:37I want you and your team as your men.
44:41Full creative control.
44:45On Miranda, your husband's debt. Handled.
44:49And every casino in the country is been told he's not welcome.
44:53Mr. Shelley, I...
44:55I'm Pauline. Your sister is in good hands.
44:59The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:01It's already prepping for her next surgery.
45:04Mr. Chevalier! Thank you!
45:07Don't thank me. Thank Victoria.
45:10I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:14Vincent, I...
45:16I don't even know what to say.
45:19It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:25I don't even know what to say.
45:27I don't know what to say.
45:29I need to find a money.
45:32Thank you very much.
45:34I like my own money.
45:35I love you, too.
45:37I love you, too, too.
45:39I love you, too.
45:41I love you.
45:43I love you, too.
45:47I love you, too.
45:49I love you.
45:50I love you too.
46:22And you're still here.
46:31Final tweaks, the pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:37You've got Grace to sleep.
46:42Yeah.
46:44And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:49Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
46:52Remember, it's in my right back to make history.
47:03Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:06We don't follow trends, we create them.
47:09Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gossling's Metcalfe moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:23I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:26What is that bitch doing here?
47:38Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:42My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:48Didn't expect to see you here.
47:50We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
47:56I multitask.
47:58Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:01You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
48:07The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:10And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:15Pregnant woman in Tokyo, three excellent employees and one CEO.
48:20What's next?
48:20The base sale?
48:22Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:24Holly, you're about to see what real T-Mart looks like.
48:27And what real loyalty looks like.
48:42Sean, glad you could make it.
48:44We have something very special to show you.
48:49Vic.
48:50I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
48:56You never know.
48:57Congratulations.
48:58Thank you, Sean.
48:59It's good to see you.
49:01Let's begin the pitches.
49:05You ready to lose?
49:06You're out of your league.
49:08You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:18First up, me and McMichael.
49:19Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:41Beautiful work.
49:52Both, please.
49:57We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
49:58After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
50:10Maison Laveau.
50:12Oh, my God.
50:14Of course.
50:16This is what we planned all along.
50:19What?
50:19What the hell did you people put me in?
50:31Are you trying to kill me?
50:33Mr. Galsing has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:36Who designed the tuxedo?
50:37Did you even read the brief?
50:39I mean, you must have read the brief.
50:44It's not complicated.
50:46It says no synthetic blends.
50:49I mean, there must be some endless sleep.
50:52Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
50:54A mistake?
50:55I could have ended up in the emergency room.
50:58Victoria, please, tell these amateurs
51:02why you pulled your glasses off.
51:10I pulled my design
51:12because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:15I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's help for a deadline.
51:18And that's why Victoria is the best.
51:20Which actually pays attention.
51:22After reviewing all the entries,
51:24the committee has reached a decision.
51:25The commission goes to
51:27Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:32Mr. Galsing was just a slip-up.
51:35Mia's designed as the front runner all along.
51:38That's why they picked her first.
51:43Maybe everyone should see this.
51:50Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
51:55That's a new low.
51:59Even for you.
52:04Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my letters.
52:08So you know,
52:10I will be supporting Victoria's case
52:12for this event.
52:15We're suspending all collaborations.
52:25Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:34You're blacklisted.
52:39Victoria, please.
52:48Victoria, please.
52:50I'll do anything, please.
52:53Just help me save the company,
52:55the brand you built for 50 years.
52:58You made your choices, Holly.
53:00Now you live with that.
53:04Why are you going too far?
53:05Sean Galsing's look tonight is a game changer
53:13crafted by the trailblazing team at JoVen.
53:16Social media is already calling it
53:18the Winter Revolution.
53:19To the best comeback in fashion history
53:30and to the women who made it happen.
53:33And to the maternity leave
53:35that actually means something.
53:39Mom,
53:41you might want to see this.
53:42Happy birthday, Victoria.
53:56Happy birthday to you!
54:02Guys, look!
54:06There's only a hole on the brink.
54:08Scandal pushes fashion diet
54:10towards bankruptcy.
54:11Ouch!
54:13I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
54:16It's strange, isn't it?
54:21I gave them everything.
54:23Late nights,
54:25weekends,
54:26all the best years
54:27and they tossed us aside
54:28like we were nothing.
54:30Now it's all crashing down.
54:32I thought I felt vindicated.
54:35Honestly, it's a weird mix.
54:37Relief, sure,
54:39but also a little bit of grief.
54:42Look,
54:42who said that our best years
54:44are behind us?
54:45Look at this!
54:48JoVen pushes for
54:49paid leave and parental support
54:51across all industries.
54:54Victoria,
54:54this is you!
54:56You did this!
54:58Here's to a future
54:59where women don't have to choose
55:01between our families
55:02and their careers.
55:03not just for us
55:05but for every woman
55:06who comes after.
55:09Careful, Vincent.
55:10What's not the best part?
55:17Bye.
55:23Victoria Winter.
55:24What's not the best part?
55:26Will you marry me?
55:33Yes!
55:34A thousand times yes!
55:36Woo!
55:48Woo!
55:49Woo!
55:49Woo!
55:49Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:50Woo!
55:51Woo!
55:51Woo!
55:51Woo!
55:52Woo!
55:52Woo!
55:53Woo!
55:53Woo!
55:54Woo!
55:54Woo!
55:55Woo!
55:56Woo!
55:56Woo!
55:57Woo!
55:57Woo!
55:57Woo!
55:57Woo!
55:58Woo!
56:14Woo!
56:15Woo!
56:15I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:18I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:21When word got out you left,
56:23clients bailed. The board freed. Members taped. I couldn't stop it.
56:31You stood Mace on the boat into this storm, Holly.
56:37I know. I know. My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
56:48I destroyed everything. My thoughts slashed in costs and saved us, but instead I gutted the company.
56:57I didn't mean to pretend like this.
57:00Maison Lavois was in debt. I bought it. Last week. The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of Jevan now.
57:13Why would you do that? To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:22You and Victoria. To help me do better than I did.
57:28I'll do it differently. Goodbye, Holly.
57:34Miss Winter, I just, I want to thank you. Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave. I can keep working and have my baby.
58:03You changed everything. Congratulations. Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:08Ready? Always.
58:25Always.
58:36And now, Jevan's new collection designed by Victoria Ventura and Lucien.
58:42Mixed a comment.
58:47Always.
