00:00:01I can't find a delivery anywhere!
00:00:03The entire Anya Winter-Spring collection
00:00:05is missing hours before the Paris runway show.
00:00:07I can get the courier on the phone.
00:00:09This is a nightmare!
00:00:10Bad news.
00:00:11The delivery truck lost control.
00:00:15Thirty couture gouts destroyed.
00:00:17We're gonna have to cancel the show.
00:00:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:20This is Anya's biggest collection ever, okay?
00:00:24She worked on it for years,
00:00:25and if she comes back and we have nothing to show,
00:00:28we're all dead!
00:00:29What other designer besides Anya
00:00:31can make an entire couture collection in just hours?
00:00:35Don't worry, guys.
00:00:37I can handle it.
00:00:39Didn't she graduate college, like, yesterday?
00:00:41She definitely looks like she just pulled an all-nighter in a library.
00:00:44There's no way some intern who grabs coffee
00:00:46and schedules Anya's lunches
00:00:48can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:50Guys, there's no time to argue.
00:00:51The show is in five hours!
00:00:53What are we gonna do?
00:00:55Give me that.
00:00:59And this.
00:01:07What is she doing?
00:01:12She's not even using a pattern.
00:01:13I've never seen someone beat so quickly.
00:01:16The invisible stitching, it's immaculate.
00:01:20There you have it.
00:01:22A gown fit for the Anya Winter Spring Couture collection.
00:01:26Push.
00:01:30This is impossible.
00:01:32I thought you were just some delusional intern, but this dress...
00:01:37Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:40This is gonna launch a million dupes,
00:01:42but none of them are gonna come close to the real thing.
00:01:45I heard Anya have recently hired a fashion school prodigy
00:01:48who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:51Is that you?
00:01:53No!
00:01:54No!
00:01:55It still isn't right!
00:01:56Ow!
00:01:57Oh!
00:01:58Oh!
00:01:59Um...
00:02:00Miss Winter, I'm here to...
00:02:02I'm here for the fall internship.
00:02:03It's Anya.
00:02:04Why would I have time to interview some useless errand-running baby
00:02:06when the fall couture show is in two days
00:02:07and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:08May I?
00:02:09Sure.
00:02:10So sorry that I ripped the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:13Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:16Not everybody knows that.
00:02:17An entire team of couture legends and names are going to be
00:02:19in the interest of the day.
00:02:20Ok.
00:02:21No, I'm not.
00:02:22I have time to interview some useless errand-running baby
00:02:23when the fall couture show is in two days
00:02:24and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:25May I?
00:02:26Sure.
00:02:27So sorry that I ripped the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:29The sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:31Not everybody knows that.
00:02:34An entire team of couture legends and names of the flowers
00:02:39of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:44Forget about the internship.
00:02:46You are going to be my head designer.
00:02:49There's no time to explain.
00:02:51We need 29 more gowns to make before the show.
00:02:54It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:55Where are we going to find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:02:57Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:02:59And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:02And rip the fringe from the carpet.
00:03:04And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:07And the new flowers.
00:03:08Stack.
00:03:11But we're going to destroy this place.
00:03:13Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:17Anya will understand.
00:03:26Holy cow.
00:03:28This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
00:03:31You're a visionary.
00:03:32Now let's kill this fashion show.
00:03:37I'm speechless.
00:03:38I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:39This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:40Dior who?
00:03:41Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:43I'm speechless.
00:03:44I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:46This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:47Dior who?
00:03:48Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:50I'm speechless.
00:03:51I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:52This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:53Dior who?
00:03:54Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:56You all head back to the studio.
00:03:57I don't know.
00:04:07You all head back to the studio,
00:04:09I'll grab some champagne to celebrate.
00:04:10Oh my God!
00:04:13I can't believe Danny completed
00:04:14this entire collection overnight.
00:04:16Where'd she even come from?
00:04:17No clue, but her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:20What the hell is going on here?
00:04:27This is disgusting.
00:04:29Is this a design studio or the girls' bathroom of a club?
00:04:33We make groundbreaking pieces with our hands,
00:04:36not our big fat mouths.
00:04:37Jordan, who is this woman?
00:04:39Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:40PR?
00:04:41This woman is the daughter of Anya Winter.
00:04:45Vanessa got her degree from central St. Martin's in London
00:04:50and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:53And she'll be acting as CEO
00:04:54while Anya recovers from a minor heart attack.
00:04:58Is this really the design team
00:04:59that created the top couture collection
00:05:01in all of Paris Fashion Week?
00:05:03Because all I'm seeing is a bunch of incompetent yappers.
00:05:06If this is about the original collection-
00:05:08I didn't ask you to speak.
00:05:11You're fired.
00:05:12Pack up your bags and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:17Anya Winter is now the top couture collection
00:05:21in the entire world.
00:05:22Time to separate the fashion icons from the frogs.
00:05:27You think my mother is a hard ass?
00:05:28Just you wait.
00:05:30I expect only the most original, exciting sketches,
00:05:34lightning-fast designs, and perfect technicality,
00:05:38and no unnecessary distractions.
00:05:41Who does she think she is?
00:05:42Miranda Priestly?
00:05:43Oh my god.
00:05:49What is this?
00:05:51Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:57No!
00:05:58That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:00Well, you should have done a better job reinforcing your steam.
00:06:07Jordan, be a doll and go get her a souvenir Eiffel Tower keychain
00:06:13as a thank you for her hard work.
00:06:14Oh yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:20Okay!
00:06:22Now, please, can somebody show me something?
00:06:25A collection?
00:06:27Congratulations!
00:06:31Who are you?
00:06:32You.
00:06:33You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:37They're fired.
00:06:39Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:41Danny Maxwell.
00:06:44Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:48Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:50She's an intern?
00:06:53So what?
00:06:54You decided that you could take advantage of my mother's showroom
00:06:56to throw a rager the night before the biggest couture show
00:07:00in the history of this house?
00:07:02That's not what we-
00:07:03I would say we could take out the damages from your salary,
00:07:07but you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:09Actually, she's our highest paid employee.
00:07:11She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:13Jordan!
00:07:15That's, that's confidential.
00:07:16So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:19You know, she might be getting old, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:22And what?
00:07:24This is how you spend the money?
00:07:25No, no.
00:07:26Look, the team was up all night working.
00:07:28Our hands are cramping.
00:07:30We're tired, but we saved the spring show.
00:07:33Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:36Celebrate?
00:07:38By destroying a studio?
00:07:42Lying?
00:07:43Talking back to your superiors?
00:07:44Drinking on the job?
00:07:46No wonder my mother had a heart attack?
00:07:48Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities.
00:07:53Unless, of course, you're just as useless as she is.
00:07:56Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:00Jordan and I have been dating for two years.
00:08:03He knows how hard I work.
00:08:05But there's no way he's going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:07Danny's my girlfriend.
00:08:09If I take her side, I'll be committing career suicide.
00:08:13You're right.
00:08:14Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:18Jordan, seriously?
00:08:20What are you still doing here, intern?
00:08:23Pack up your shit and get out of here.
00:08:26If that's how it's going to be.
00:08:27This isn't Danny's fault.
00:08:29She's the one who saved-
00:08:30Oh! Do you want to go with her?
00:08:34If anyone else here helped Danny destroy this studio, please feel free to speak up now.
00:08:40It's okay, guys.
00:08:42Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now.
00:08:44You've all earned your spots.
00:08:46It was my fault.
00:08:47I'm leaving.
00:08:55How could you?
00:09:00Be back.
00:09:02Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:06Baby!
00:09:07I'm so sorry.
00:09:10We've been together for two years.
00:09:12You couldn't even defend me?
00:09:13She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:14Look, we both know that I don't have a degree.
00:09:20And it's a miracle that you got me this job.
00:09:24And if I lose it, then who's going to pay for all the expensive champagne
00:09:30that we're going to have at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:33Well, you better spring for caviar, too.
00:09:36You owe me big time, Jordan.
00:09:40I promise I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:43Let's meet tonight at eight, okay?
00:09:46Let's have a magical last night in Paris.
00:09:49I'll see you then.
00:09:57Your frumpy little girlfriend is a recipe for bad press.
00:10:00So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:04Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:06Today's not my...
00:10:07She better not be.
00:10:12You're hot, you know.
00:10:14My mother wants to start a menswear line.
00:10:17You could be the PR director.
00:10:20What do you prefer?
00:10:21An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:23Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:28Say it.
00:10:29Mommy?
00:10:31What else?
00:10:33What else?
00:10:34Does baby need a change?
00:10:37Baby needs a change.
00:10:38Mm-hmm.
00:10:39Yeah, he does to change.
00:10:40Stinky.
00:10:41Stinky, snooker.
00:10:43Yes, mother.
00:10:46Mm-hmm.
00:10:49Stupid people.
00:10:51They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:53I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:11:01I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:11:06I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:08Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:10I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:13You better treat her right.
00:11:18Maxwell?
00:11:20Oh, God.
00:11:21Is that the frumpy intern I just fired?
00:11:23Hello?
00:11:24I'm speaking to you.
00:11:25Yes, mother.
00:11:26One second.
00:11:29Is there any other Maxwell on the design team?
00:11:31I must have sent me to stop this at some point.
00:11:33She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:40A creative genius.
00:11:42I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't
00:11:47get their hands on her.
00:11:48Without her, this whole house will crumble.
00:11:59Don't worry, mother.
00:12:00I'll treat her like a queen.
00:12:02You better.
00:12:03And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:06What is her name?
00:12:08Anyway, she is a fucking disaster.
00:12:10A brain-dead Nepo Baby intern who never shows up.
00:12:14And when she does, she's useless.
00:12:18Do me a favor.
00:12:19Fire her.
00:12:20Thank God.
00:12:22Of course, that tasteless tornado I fired was just a pointless intern.
00:12:26Don't worry, mother.
00:12:27I already handled it.
00:12:32I'll come check on things the second they discharge me from this hellhole.
00:12:37Rest up and I'll take care of everything.
00:12:39I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:46Now, where were we?
00:12:48What the hell do you want?
00:12:56The studio phone's been ringing off the hook.
00:12:58Well, who is it?
00:12:59It's Solea's team.
00:13:01Solea?
00:13:02As in the most famous actress in the world.
00:13:04She needs a dress for the Met Gala.
00:13:06She wants to see sketches for five looks inspired by the new collection.
00:13:11In one hour.
00:13:14Oh, let's hope Maxwell can pull this off.
00:13:20Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:21Jordan, get Brynn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:36What happened?
00:13:37I thought everyone would hate me for causing the crash that destroyed the whole collection,
00:13:41but I guess they've got bigger problems.
00:13:46Dani, the bumpy dumbass.
00:13:48She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:13:51Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:13:53No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:55I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:04I'm definitely getting fired.
00:14:06Where are you?
00:14:07We need five sketches to send to Solea's team for her Met Gala look ASAP.
00:14:11Miss Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:17Be right there.
00:14:21Why would they ask me, a brand new intern,
00:14:23to dress the most famous woman in the world?
00:14:26Whatever.
00:14:27I'll use Dani's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:30Oh my gosh, I'm gonna be a star.
00:14:34Well, Brynn's handling it.
00:14:37Nice work.
00:14:39Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, I'm so sick.
00:14:43I know.
00:14:44This partnership will take this brand to a whole new level.
00:14:49And as acting CEO of this fashion house, I'll be invited to the best parties.
00:14:53With the most rich and famous people.
00:14:56And you could be my D.
00:14:58Unless, of course, you want to go with Dani.
00:15:05Where is Jordan? He's 20 minutes late.
00:15:07No, I don't want her.
00:15:10I was gonna break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:14I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:16Mmm, good choice.
00:15:21Guess I'll drag him here myself.
00:15:22Gosh, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:36It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:39She is a fashion superstar, okay? And you're just...
00:15:47An unemployed loser.
00:15:48You spineless dick.
00:15:51You psycho bitch, are you out of your fucking mind?
00:15:53That's it, you cheating piece of...
00:15:55Dani, Dani, you are embarrassing yourself.
00:15:58I'm the embarrassment.
00:16:00Three hours ago, you were begging for my forgiveness.
00:16:03And now you're shoving your tongue down your new box's throat?
00:16:07Know your place, you tacky, talentless slump.
00:16:12Face it, Dani.
00:16:14You're a fool.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for...
00:16:17upgrading.
00:16:18I love to, Jordan.
00:16:24And the only reason you're here is because of me.
00:16:27Because I told Anya to make you PR manager.
00:16:29Are you kidding me?
00:16:31More ridiculous lies.
00:16:33You?
00:16:34You're a deadbeat intern.
00:16:35As if my mother would have anything to do with you.
00:16:40We...
00:16:42are...
00:16:43over...
00:16:44Dani.
00:16:49I'm calling security.
00:16:50Why don't you call your mother instead?
00:16:52The founder of this house.
00:16:54She'll tell you that you're making a huge mistake.
00:16:57You know, enough with the bullshit, Dani.
00:16:59It's cringe.
00:17:00Is this how you got your job here?
00:17:02By spewing insane lies?
00:17:04Hi, security.
00:17:05Yes, there's a delusional ex-employee
00:17:07who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:12Oh, Dani.
00:17:13Don't be sad.
00:17:14Look, I get it.
00:17:15I'm powerful, smart, experienced.
00:17:22And you?
00:17:23Well, you're jobless, talentless, and irrelevant.
00:17:28Look, if I were you, I would go on home and drown your sorrows in a bottle of cheap champagne.
00:17:34Unless, of course, you'd rather spend your last night in Paris in a jail cell.
00:17:37Fine.
00:17:37I'm done here anyway.
00:17:44And where do you think you're going, Dani?
00:17:47Guards!
00:17:48She's over here.
00:17:48Who the hell are you?
00:17:53I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture collection.
00:17:56We're in, Max.
00:17:59Oh, wow.
00:18:00Well, I can see why my mother sung your praises.
00:18:05Oh, is that an archival saline bag?
00:18:09Well, you obviously have impeccable taste.
00:18:12It's no wonder you created such a groundbreaking collection.
00:18:15These dumbasses don't even know that I'm totally jacking Dani's glory.
00:18:18Who cares?
00:18:19As long as Anya's daughter thinks I'm a genius,
00:18:22I'll get promoted to creative director without lifting a finger.
00:18:26Vanessa, I know who's responsible for destroying Anya's first Spring collection.
00:18:32She's the one that made the routing error that caused a truck to crash.
00:18:36She's obviously trying to sabotage the brand.
00:18:38What?
00:18:45Dani's done it again.
00:18:48You know that one design school prodigy you've had your eye on?
00:18:51Dani Maxwell?
00:18:52She was just fired from Anya Winters' fashion house.
00:18:55The show was a hit.
00:18:56How is that possible?
00:18:57Apparently, Anya's daughter, Vanessa, forced her out.
00:18:59Of course.
00:19:02I would love to see the look on Anya Winters' face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo of a daughter
00:19:07fired her star designer.
00:19:09Call Dani up.
00:19:10Let's get her here.
00:19:11But Anya Winters is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:14We're not even ranked top ten.
00:19:15Dior and Chanel are probably banging down Dani's door already.
00:19:18You really think she would work for us?
00:19:19I'll do anything to get Dani on this team.
00:19:22Rumor has it that Soleil is looking for a new designer for her Met Gelo look.
00:19:26And if we can dress the most famous woman on the planet on the biggest night in fashion,
00:19:31we'll be the new brand on top.
00:19:34Get the jet ready.
00:19:35I'm going to Paris.
00:19:37And I'm not leaving without Dani Maxwell.
00:19:40Sabotage?
00:19:43Are you kidding me?
00:19:45You can take the fall from my stupid mistake, Dani.
00:19:48Who will believe you over me?
00:19:49You were out partying all night when you should have been confirming the route with the courier.
00:19:53And you destroyed my mother's studio on your drunken bender.
00:19:56You all see me as some incompetent intern just because I'm not wearing the latest off-the-runway
00:20:01clothes.
00:20:02Maybe daddy's black card can buy you Celine, but can it buy you talent too?
00:20:05You think I caused that disaster? You think she is your savior?
00:20:12Well then best of luck when Anya comes back and sees what a mess you've made.
00:20:15This is your mess, Dani Maxwell.
00:20:18I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate yes.
00:20:22Don't touch me.
00:20:24Jordan, don't let them do this. We both know you're not capable of handling the outcome.
00:20:28First you threaten Brynn, and then you threaten me.
00:20:31You know, you shouldn't be such a bitter bitch, Dani.
00:20:36You know, jealousy looks hideous on you, so why don't you go ahead and pick up your mistakes
00:20:42and get the fuck out before you get locked up.
00:20:45What can they even arrest me for?
00:20:47Let's see, vandalism, insubordination, and that sweater is definitely a crime against fashion.
00:20:54Don't you know that I can end your entire fashion career with one phone call to my mother?
00:20:58Then go ahead. Do it.
00:21:04If Vanessa calls Anya, she'll find out that Dani's the real star designer.
00:21:09Vanessa! Your mom's in recovery.
00:21:11Shouldn't you go to the fashion council first instead?
00:21:15To make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Dani's terrible taste?
00:21:19Brynn's right. You should go right to the source.
00:21:21Do not let her get away with this.
00:21:23I have all my mother's industry contacts at my fingertips. I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:30Dani Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter. Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:38No other fashion house will want you now. Good luck getting a part-time job at Forever 21.
00:21:43I guess that's that then. But before I go, I have one question for you, Vanessa.
00:21:50Does Anya, the CEO and creator of this fashion house, know that you fired me?
00:21:55What kind of idiot do you think I am, Dani? My mother practically begged me to fire your incompetent ass.
00:22:01You thought you could roll up here in your bargain bin sweater and call yourself a fashion icon?
00:22:06Your career is so hopeful.
00:22:10Hey, uh, security, can you take her away and throw her to something? Jail cell, police, whatever?
00:22:17Get your hands off of her.
00:22:22That is my new creative director.
00:22:26Dani Maxwell will join Claude St. Jean Fashion House.
00:22:30Claude St. Jean of St. John Couture?
00:22:32You came all the way from New York for me?
00:22:34Of course.
00:22:35I flew straight here.
00:22:40Nice to see you again, Dani.
00:22:42I haven't seen you since I interned at Valentino my freshman year.
00:22:45Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:50How'd you get that job, Dani?
00:22:52You scam your way into that one too?
00:22:55God, Dani, we went out.
00:22:57I had no idea that you were such a grifter.
00:23:02I feel so, so used.
00:23:05So this is how Anya Winter treats their most talented designers.
00:23:08You know, I can't say I'm surprised with someone like you working here.
00:23:11Claude, I...
00:23:12That is Mr. St. Jean to you.
00:23:14And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:18Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:20You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:22Mr. St. John, Dani here has done irreparable damage and...
00:23:26Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:27Obviously, I.
00:23:28I'm right.
00:23:30I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:31Enough!
00:23:31This idiot destroyed my mother's collection, wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio, ruined the entire
00:23:39couture show, almost lost us millions.
00:23:41And why are we still talking about her?
00:23:43Did you not ask your mother who Dani was before you fired her?
00:23:46What kind of idiot do you think I am?
00:23:53My mother runs this fashion house with an iron fist.
00:23:56Of course, I consulted her.
00:23:58And you know what she said?
00:23:59She said that this idiot Dani is a Nepo baby intern who scammed her way into the job.
00:24:06Brain dead.
00:24:07Anya actually said this.
00:24:09And a useless disaster.
00:24:10She quite literally said to me, do me a favor and fire this bitch.
00:24:15Anya practically begged me to work for her.
00:24:18She wouldn't walk back on a decision like that.
00:24:20Okay, we all know Anya, okay?
00:24:22And she wouldn't beg anyone for anything.
00:24:25Especially to work with a deadweight intern.
00:24:28Then why are you still here?
00:24:29What, you little...
00:24:30Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:33Dani, will you come with me and be my new creative director of St. John Couture?
00:24:38God, I don't know.
00:24:39Hey, whatever you are making, I will double it.
00:24:41Okay, her salary is 500k.
00:24:43She's literally robbing us blind.
00:24:46A millionaire is that?
00:24:51Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:53Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top 10.
00:24:56Are you clinically insane?
00:24:58You're an even bigger bullshitter than Dani.
00:25:02A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:05Hm, way to dig your own grave.
00:25:08I thought I told you to shut up.
00:25:11Claude, I really appreciate what you're trying to do.
00:25:14Seriously, but it's not about the money.
00:25:16Dani, if you join my fashion house, the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:22Creative control over the next season's couture collection will be yours.
00:25:26My designers, my studio, my full trust.
00:25:28And hell, if you want me, I'm even yours too.
00:25:35Oh, Claude.
00:25:37Okay, look, I get it.
00:25:39You hustled from the bottom to build your own fashion brand.
00:25:42And I respect you for that.
00:25:44So let me remind you that Dani is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:48Even my mother says hiring her is a literal death wish.
00:25:52In that case...
00:25:59Okay.
00:26:00What is all this shit?
00:26:01This shit is everything that your mother gifted me.
00:26:04Her one and only key to her personal studio, the business black card in my name,
00:26:08which I could have used to repair the damages, but I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:13You can tell Anya that I, Dani Maxwell, am more than happy to walk away from this fashion house
00:26:20and never, ever come back.
00:26:23Oh, so sad for us.
00:26:26Not.
00:26:28You did not deserve any special treatment, Dani.
00:26:31I mean, just look at you.
00:26:32You're a complete fashion flop.
00:26:34You know, you are all so wrapped up in beauty standards and
00:26:38bullshit that you can't even see the design talent that is right in front of you.
00:26:41Dani, it is true.
00:26:45We have been struggling to beat out Anya Winter for the number one title spot.
00:26:48Then I'm going to change that.
00:26:50I'll join as creative director.
00:26:53And by this time, next season's runway show,
00:26:57Saint Jean Couture will be number one.
00:27:03You know, I almost feel embarrassed for you, Dani.
00:27:05Losing your spot at the number one fashion house to go and work for this
00:27:09desperate up and comer.
00:27:13Although, who else would hire you?
00:27:15I'm embarrassed for her.
00:27:17You know Vanessa's going to burn this place to the ground and you
00:27:20are going to be left for this PR shitstorm to clean up.
00:27:23And something tells me you're not qualified for that, are you?
00:27:27Qualified?
00:27:28And what exactly are you qualified for?
00:27:30Propositioning idiotic interns to go out and peddle up your hideous designs to some micro-influencers?
00:27:37What?
00:27:43I did.
00:27:46She did.
00:27:49She will.
00:27:51Who is that?
00:27:52That was Solea's team.
00:27:54They've asked for five sketches from Dani for her Met Gala look.
00:27:57What was that about micro-influencers?
00:28:00If I'm not mistaken, she has more followers than anyone in the world?
00:28:06Absolutely not.
00:28:08Brynn is supposed to design Solea's gown.
00:28:10Brynn?
00:28:13Guess we got ourselves some competition.
00:28:15This isn't a competition.
00:28:16It's an all-out fashion war.
00:28:18Well, I hope you're ready to die on the battlefield.
00:28:20Let's go, Dani.
00:28:22Gladly.
00:28:23I'm losing brain cells talking to these people.
00:28:27May the best designer win.
00:28:31Don't worry about her, Vanessa.
00:28:33Just send these to Solea's teams and there's no way she won't pick us.
00:28:37I'll be Dani with her own designs.
00:28:42Oh my god, Brynn, these are incredible.
00:28:45Between these and the spring couture collection, you've really proven yourself.
00:28:50I'm officially naming you as creative director of Ani Winter Couture.
00:28:56This is a dream come true.
00:29:02And don't forget about me in the face of the menswear line.
00:29:08Great.
00:29:09One step at a time.
00:29:11Stick with me and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:14Every designer will be gunning for our spot as top couture collection in the world.
00:29:21That's why we need to dress Solea the Mechella.
00:29:25And no one can touch us.
00:29:27Not even Claude and that hack Dani.
00:29:30I won't let you down, Vanessa.
00:29:32Now, walk me through how you designed the couture collection in four hours.
00:29:37How did I do it?
00:29:41Oh god, I can't design for crap.
00:29:43I have no idea how Dani pulled that off.
00:29:45What the hell am I going to tell her?
00:29:48I used a highly specialized sewing technique that I learned in my final year of fashion school.
00:29:56The details are really boring.
00:29:57I could show you later.
00:29:59Of course.
00:30:00You have your own technique.
00:30:01You are the creative genius.
00:30:03I mean, these are already Met Gala worthy.
00:30:05If you can bring them to life half as well as you did the spring collection,
00:30:09you have nothing to worry about.
00:30:10Nothing at all.
00:30:12I am now the creative director of the number one fashion house in the world.
00:30:18Step aside, Dani.
00:30:19I'm the new couture queen now.
00:30:24What do you want?
00:30:26Anya, it's Claude Zanjean.
00:30:28Listen, I'm just calling to let you know that we are officially in the running to dress Solea at
00:30:32Hermit Gala.
00:30:34What?
00:30:36We are the number one couture house in the world right now.
00:30:40Why would she want you to dress her as if some young, arrogant, dumbass could...
00:30:44Listen, I'm not calling to discuss this.
00:30:46I'm just simply letting you know.
00:30:47What the hell is that rat up to?
00:30:57He knows I have a design prodigy at my right hand.
00:31:01Why would he think anybody could beat a superstar like Dani?
00:31:10Unless...
00:31:10Mother, you'll never believe the sketches I got from...
00:31:16Tell me you didn't fire my most talented designer!
00:31:21Calm down, mother, or else you'll have another heart attack.
00:31:26Like I told you already, I fired that brain-dead slacker intern.
00:31:30Why the hell is Claude St. John competing with us for the Met Gala partnership?
00:31:36Well, I just figured it was pointless to talk him out of it when he's obviously going to crash
00:31:40and burn along with that talentless intern.
00:31:43They'll design something cheap and tacky for Solea,
00:31:46and then she'll tell everybody she knows not to touch St. John Couture with a 10-foot pole.
00:31:54And then their sad little fashion careers.
00:31:56They'll be over it before they even started.
00:31:59So you gaslit Claude into hiring our cast off?
00:32:04Sure did.
00:32:05He's convinced that the talentless Nepo baby is the creative genius behind our spring line.
00:32:10That's brilliant!
00:32:11And I thought you're a weak little pushover like your father, but...
00:32:18Maybe you're more like me than I knew.
00:32:19Vanessa, I want you to take full control over the Met Gala partnership with Solea.
00:32:26Oh, thank you!
00:32:27No more talking.
00:32:29It's time to get to work and we need to make damn sure Solea picks our gown for the gala.
00:32:36We are going to make Claude St. John the laughing stock of the fashion industry.
00:32:44Everyone's buzzing about this Met Gala partnership.
00:32:47Vanessa's never run a fashion house before.
00:32:50Are you sure she can handle this?
00:32:51Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:54My daughter can't fuck this up.
00:32:56Not with Danny Maxwell designing the gown for Solea.
00:33:01Did I tell you that she actually convinced Claude St. John to hire our strung out sad sack of an intern?
00:33:09I get to sit back and watch Danny work her magic for Solea's gown while that hack of a talent
00:33:18completely tanks what's left of Claude's fashion house.
00:33:22So, how does our studio compare to the great Anya Winters?
00:33:37It's insane what you've accomplished.
00:33:39I mean, four years ago you were a glorified errand boy at Valentino and now look at you.
00:33:45Your own couture line.
00:33:47It's everything you ever wanted.
00:33:49Not everything.
00:33:50Well, what about you Danny?
00:33:54I mean, when I met you you were a quiet little intern and now you're a fashion genius.
00:34:00I'm serious.
00:34:00I mean, that work you did on that spring collection, it was inspiring.
00:34:11Yes.
00:34:14Of course.
00:34:17You'll be there.
00:34:17So, Leah loved your Michael sketches, huh?
00:34:22She chose her favorite from you and Brayden and she wants you both to show her a sample.
00:34:26Oh my god, when?
00:34:30Tomorrow afternoon.
00:34:31You have 24 hours to make this dress for Solea.
00:34:34Better get started.
00:34:36I mean, we just got back from New York and I...
00:34:38You created an entire couture collection in what?
00:34:41Four hours?
00:34:43This should be a breeze, right?
00:34:44Right.
00:34:45I can totally pull this off.
00:34:47Then do it.
00:34:49Now!
00:34:53Do you think you can pull off creating a Met Gala gown for a triple A-list celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:57Who do you think you're talking to?
00:34:59Whatever it is, it just needs to be better than this.
00:35:02This is our competition.
00:35:04That's my sketch.
00:35:05That fraud brand's been stealing my designs.
00:35:14Of course.
00:35:16She has no real talent of her own.
00:35:21Damn, that dress is insane.
00:35:25A skirt made of stained glass?
00:35:27Insane is right.
00:35:29It's going to be nearly impossible to sew a bodice I can support the weight of the skirt.
00:35:34If Solea puts on this gown, it's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:35:38Prima wants to be a fashion icon so bad.
00:35:41How will she pull us off?
00:35:43Then it's an easy win, right?
00:35:45We'll just sit back and let the thieves crash and burn.
00:35:47Not exactly.
00:35:50I'm going to make the same exact dress, only better.
00:35:53Then there'll be no question who the real designer is.
00:35:57But I thought you said it was impossible to pull off.
00:36:01I said nearly impossible.
00:36:07Bryn can try to rip off my designs all she wants.
00:36:11But without the brains or skills to back it up, there's no way she's going to pull it off.
00:36:16And if she tries, that gown is going to fall apart faster than you can say a fashion victim.
00:36:23Let's remember this day, the last day that Claude Sijon Couture will be at the bottom of the fashion food chase.
00:36:33By this time tomorrow will be the new roars of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:41What the hell is this?
00:36:43Why can't you guys attach the top of the dress to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:48Bryn, the skirt is too heavy.
00:36:50I have no excuses!
00:36:51We have four hours to make a dress for Salaya.
00:37:01Gosh, I wish I was getting trash at a club right now.
00:37:03Bryn!
00:37:05How's everything going?
00:37:06Great!
00:37:07I just dropped my scissors.
00:37:09We're putting on the finishing touches.
00:37:12Phone call.
00:37:13I need an update on the Met Gala.
00:37:17Now!
00:37:17Don't worry, Mother.
00:37:18I have everything under control.
00:37:20That clown, Claude, and that fraud designer are going down.
00:37:26You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:28Your mother raised an amazing woman.
00:37:33Keep it up.
00:37:34There might be another promotion in your future.
00:37:36If I can pull this off, I'll go down in fashion history.
00:37:45Who's the brain-dead Nepo baby now?
00:37:47You're killing it.
00:38:02Denny.
00:38:03Denny.
00:38:05Wake up.
00:38:06Come on.
00:38:10Let's get you to bed.
00:38:11Good morning, Superstar.
00:38:30Good morning, Superstar.
00:38:41This is it.
00:38:45The gown that can make or break me.
00:38:54You should be proud, Denny.
00:38:57It's exceptional.
00:39:00Just like you.
00:39:02Thanks, I...
00:39:06I couldn't have done it without you.
00:39:11Oh, God.
00:39:14I need to change what I'm wearing to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:17Don't worry about it.
00:39:19I had my editor friend Marco pull some things from the Vogue closet for you.
00:39:24Pick anything you like.
00:39:33See you at the meeting.
00:39:33Gosh, this is a freaking disaster.
00:39:45What am I gonna do?
00:39:47Brynn!
00:39:53That better be the best dress you've ever made.
00:39:57Let's go.
00:39:57Ready to retire early, Claude?
00:40:04We're gonna get that Met Gala partnership.
00:40:07In your dreams, Vanessa.
00:40:08Where's your top secret weapon?
00:40:10She'll be here soon.
00:40:11She'll make a big impression on Salaya.
00:40:14Did she bother to iron out the lumps in today's big baggy sweater?
00:40:18I'm sure the most fashionable woman in the world will absolutely love her Walmart chic style.
00:40:23Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:25Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:31I just have to find a way to switch mine and Danny's garment bags when no one's looking.
00:40:35It's not like Salaya would even trust that unstylish little piece of...
00:40:39Danny.
00:40:51You look stunning.
00:40:53Thanks.
00:40:56Speechless.
00:40:58Is that a first?
00:40:59Are those that...
00:41:00One of a kind Anya winter fall couture books?
00:41:03Yes, I am.
00:41:06Okay, but why would my mother give you those?
00:41:08She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:09They were a gift for designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:13What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:16Look, I always knew you were a lazy, deadbeat intern,
00:41:19but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:22That's a whole new loan.
00:41:24Taking credit for another designer's work.
00:41:27Friend, I knew a thing or two about that.
00:41:30Watch, he used...
00:41:31Careful now.
00:41:33You think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:35This, give me that, this is what the work of a genuine fashion superstar looks like.
00:41:43If Vanessa opens the bag, everyone's going to see that I'm a total fraud.
00:41:50Salaya will see you now.
00:41:52Designers only.
00:41:53For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:56Hey, you've got this.
00:42:02There's no way she's not going to pick you.
00:42:08Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership.
00:42:11Don't fuck it up.
00:42:13I won't let you down.
00:42:17Salaya is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes.
00:42:20You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:22Just don't touch anything.
00:42:27The dress you made?
00:42:29Is that an original Bryn Maxwell design or is it stolen?
00:42:34I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:37You mean you didn't steal my portfolio and pass off my sketches as yours so you could dress
00:42:44the most famous woman in the world for the Met Gala?
00:42:47Tell me Bryn, have you ever actually picked up a sewing needle?
00:42:52That dress you designed is beautiful but very, very complicated.
00:43:00How did you manage to pull that off?
00:43:02We'll just see.
00:43:04Won't we?
00:43:06Yes, we will.
00:43:15Oh, my gown is hideous.
00:43:17If I don't do something fast, everyone's going to find out that I'm a total frost.
00:43:30I've just gotten a close to fashion fame and I'm not letting Dani that disaster take it from me.
00:43:53Bye bye Dani.
00:43:56Salaya's arriving now.
00:43:57No photos, no sucking up, and no touching.
00:44:01Unless she touches you.
00:44:02Got it?
00:44:03Got it.
00:44:12Salaya, this is Bryn Maxwell.
00:44:14It's so nice to meet you.
00:44:16Where's the other one?
00:44:17She must be running a little bit late.
00:44:19I hate people who waste my time.
00:44:21I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:25Let's see it then.
00:44:27Let's see it then.
00:44:45Bryn knocked me out and stole my dress.
00:44:48I knew she was a snake, but I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:55The sample preview is starting now and I have nothing to show.
00:44:58Or maybe I did.
00:45:10I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:13Sorry, fam.
00:45:17It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:20This is like the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:24I feel connected to it on like a cosmic level.
00:45:27I must wear this dress.
00:45:29I knew you would love it.
00:45:30But what about the other designer?
00:45:32She might.
00:45:33She's late.
00:45:34I'll give her three seconds.
00:45:35If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:38Three, two, one.
00:45:40Wait!
00:45:43I'm so sorry.
00:45:44I'm late, Celia.
00:45:44I had a little bump in the rug.
00:45:49I suppose I can forgive you.
00:45:50Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:54Nice gown, Bryn.
00:45:55I wish I could say the same, Dani, but your stinks.
00:46:01Gee, I wonder why that is.
00:46:04This dress is so trippy.
00:46:08My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:11Okay, but you're not like crying.
00:46:13I mean, like, mine is still better, right?
00:46:18I wouldn't say that.
00:46:20What?
00:46:22Isn't that crazy?
00:46:23That you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me,
00:46:27and Celia still likes my design better?
00:46:31How much longer can you keep up this shriek?
00:46:33I must know.
00:46:35What was your inspiration?
00:46:37I was inspired by those times when someone just
00:46:40tries to knock you out, and you get the trash and make a treasure.
00:46:48Like the phoenix rises from the ashes again.
00:46:51Or like a rat from a dumpster.
00:46:54I've always felt spiritually connected to the phoenix.
00:46:58Dani, I feel like you really get me.
00:47:01You're a true artist with a true vision.
00:47:03Okay, well, what about my vision?
00:47:06What about my art?
00:47:08Bryn's right.
00:47:09She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:14Bryn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:22Crap, I have no idea how Dani made this.
00:47:26What do I say?
00:47:28How did I do it?
00:47:29Um, you're not gatekeeping your creative process from Celia, are you?
00:47:36If you want her to wear your gown at the Met Gala, doesn't she deserve to know how you made it?
00:47:46It's true, Celia doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:49It's a simple question, Bryn.
00:47:51If you can't answer it, then like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:54I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:48:02Clearly, she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:06Okay, this taped together thing is not fashion, okay? It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:13Celia, you cannot wear Dani's dress. I mean, look at it. It's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:48:19Besides, it's made out of New York Street trash.
00:48:23She's right. It does kind of have like a fishy smell to it.
00:48:28It's giving and I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:33Well, obviously this is just a sample. The real dress would not-
00:48:36Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:38I mean, Celia, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway, but Dani's?
00:48:44Dani's is probably made out of disease, rat feces and meat juice.
00:48:51Oh god, you know I'm a die-hard vegan.
00:48:58I've made my decision. The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:49:04Brin's.
00:49:08I can't wear street trash to the Met Gala. It's too big of a risk, even for me.
00:49:13Oh, I'm sorry Dani, but it's easier to go back to trash when you are trash.
00:49:20But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:25Brin, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:27Like, like, right now?
00:49:30You made this dress in 24 hours. Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:35Once Celia sees Brin for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:40Yeah. Brin, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do? Now.
00:49:47I really work better alone.
00:49:56Not today you don't. Do you want me to wear your dress to the Met Gala or not?
00:50:00This is it.
00:50:01This is it.
00:50:03The moment everyone sees that I'm a total fraud.
00:50:07The moment my talents will finally be recognized.
00:50:12Celia, Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine is here to see you.
00:50:17Oh my god, and she's the chair of the Met Gala board.
00:50:20She must have heard I'm picking my dress today.
00:50:22Maybe they're going to do a feature.
00:50:24Oh my god, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:26Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:33Miss Summer had to take a call in the car and sent me up instead.
00:50:37I'm her personal assistant here to deliver a message.
00:50:41On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders,
00:50:46Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:53Banned? What the hell for?
00:50:57Insubordination. Sabotage amounting to millions of dollars and potential losses.
00:51:02A general lack of personal style.
00:51:07Those aren't just faceless lies.
00:51:09I think we all know who the real liar is here, Danny.
00:51:13How dare you come into Celia's personal studio,
00:51:16waste her precious time knowing you are hated by literally everyone in the fashion industry.
00:51:21Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:24This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:28This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:31Get her out of here, now.
00:51:37Congratulations.
00:51:38I can't wait to wear your gown to the Met Gala.
00:51:41And I can't wait to steal all of Danny's glory.
00:51:44Hey, Danny, what the hell?
00:51:50Hey, get your hands off of me right now.
00:51:54You okay?
00:51:56Okay, I'd stay back if I were you.
00:51:58Unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life too.
00:52:00Banned?
00:52:02By who?
00:52:03Hannah Summer herself.
00:52:06The editor-in-chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:10This is the best day of my life.
00:52:14Mine too.
00:52:15Vanessa, I bow to you.
00:52:20I am the real hero here.
00:52:22I mean, Celia's wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:26And Danny here is going to get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:29The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:32I've given everything for this fashion house.
00:52:35And how do you repay me?
00:52:38By turning everyone in the industry against me?
00:52:41Not everyone.
00:52:44Let's go, Danny.
00:52:53I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:57I don't know.
00:52:58Who'd believe it?
00:52:59Look at our latest post.
00:53:00I can't wait to reveal my hashtag Met Gala look tomorrow.
00:53:04I'll be giving the designer a very special shout out on stage after my exclusive performance.
00:53:12That's my dress.
00:53:13That should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:16Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this.
00:53:18They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:22They're everything that you're not.
00:53:26You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:28And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:33I know what I have to do.
00:53:37I'm gonna sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:41Hell yes you are.
00:53:42I'm sneaking into the Met Gala now.
00:53:44I have work to do.
00:53:46Hey, let me handle that.
00:53:49Now, let's drink.
00:53:50Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:52Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:54:00But it will.
00:54:06You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:08I think I used to call you One Cup Club.
00:54:14You're tall, but you're quite the length.
00:54:17I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:20And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:25You know, you were lightweight.
00:54:41Speak for yourself.
00:54:46Let's get to the bed.
00:54:47I used to watch the champagne situation.
00:54:50Seriously, I'm not kidding.
00:54:56Wow.
00:54:56Oh, Lord.
00:55:03I suddenly feel very sober.
00:55:06Me too.
00:55:07What do you think?
00:55:31I think the stitching's immaculate.
00:55:35But what's it for?
00:55:37This?
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40This is your party crashing uniform.
00:55:43Marco's going to meet you on the side entrance of the gala.
00:55:47I owe you both my legs.
00:55:50I just want to make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:59I'll meet you there.
00:56:01Where are you going?
00:56:02I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:56:06When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house and sent a fraud to the biggest event in fashion history,
00:56:12it's going to be over for her and Britain.
00:56:14Thank you for everything.
00:56:22I'll meet you there.
00:56:23I'll meet you there.
00:56:23I'll meet you there.
00:56:31Good luck.
00:56:31Good luck.
00:56:31We're here at fashion's biggest night, the Met Gala, where everyone who is anyone has gathered in New York City to celebrate the best of fashion.
00:56:54And, oh my god.
00:56:56Solea!
00:56:58Darling, how are you?
00:56:59Oh my god.
00:57:00I am freaking out right now.
00:57:02I made this gown.
00:57:06Anyway, best dress of the night, hands down.
00:57:11Now tell me, who made this incredible creation?
00:57:14I'm actually not revealing who made it yet, but it'll be a big surprise for everyone inside.
00:57:19Krypton, I love it.
00:57:22Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:27You know, that spring collection that you did was just like, whoa, you know?
00:57:33Yeah, I'm kind of like, a genius.
00:57:44Brynn got me banned from the Met Gala, but I made it in, and soon she'll be exposed for the fraud she is.
00:57:51How did that slut get in here?
00:57:53She's going to ruin everything.
00:57:57Champagne Brynn?
00:57:58You cannot be here.
00:58:01You competed against me to dress Solea, the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala, and you lost.
00:58:08Okay, tonight is my special night, and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:12I'm the one who designed Solea's dress.
00:58:14I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:16After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown, she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:23Brynn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:27I do not have to answer.
00:58:30Face it, Dani, I have won the respect of everyone who matters in the fashion industry.
00:58:36I'm going to be up there next to Solea on that stage, basking in all your glory.
00:58:41And you, you will still be a no one.
00:58:47You come in here dressed up like a servant expecting me to do what?
00:58:50Fall out your feet and go, oh, I'm so sorry, Dani, you are so smart and so talented.
00:58:55It's never going to happen.
00:58:58I am rubbing elbows with the hottest, most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:59:03I am wearing the gown of the Met Gala, and you can't touch me now.
00:59:09And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:12Certainly not you, if that's what you're implying.
00:59:20Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:24Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:28You think Brynn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:37Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:40Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:42And what have you done to prove yourself?
00:59:44Sneak into the Met Gala dressed as the help?
00:59:46You know, the servant suit really fits you, Dani. I think you, uh, found your true calling.
00:59:55Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
01:00:00You know, we dated for two years, and I never asked you for a thing.
01:00:04But the minute Vanessa offers you 15 minutes of fame, you drop me without a thought.
01:00:11What will you do once she's used you up and left you in the dust?
01:00:15You have no idea what you're talking about.
01:00:21Yeah. Jealousy is a disease, Dani.
01:00:26Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:32You literally got banned for being a talentless scammer.
01:00:35Are you really so desperate to steal my glory that you'd crash the biggest night in fashion?
01:00:41You must be psychotic.
01:00:43Really?
01:00:44And what's the word for stealing another designer's work and using it for clout?
01:00:56Claude.
01:00:56Did you come here to fall at my feet and beg me for a job now that my fashion house officially has the Met Gala partnership and yours?
01:01:09Yours is dead in the water.
01:01:12I'll bet you regret hiring that sneaky little weasel now, don't you?
01:01:15Not as much as you're going to regret putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:18Excuse me?
01:01:22Look, I know you and I haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:01:29Yeah.
01:01:30But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:36There's something you should see.
01:01:36Bitch!
01:01:42My star designer worked her fingers to the bone to make that dress for Saleya.
01:01:47Don't you dare try to take credit for her creative genius.
01:01:50Hmm, very soft.
01:01:55But if she worked her fingers to the bone, then wear the calces.
01:01:58Ah, how dare you assault me.
01:02:02Leave.
01:02:03Now.
01:02:04Or what?
01:02:06So entitled.
01:02:07You know, you should be grateful to my mother for even allowing you to step foot into her historic couture house.
01:02:13I never said I wasn't.
01:02:15Your mother is one of the best designers in the world and she took a chance on me.
01:02:20I've always been grateful to her.
01:02:22Grateful?
01:02:24You've tarnished her name and reputation and now you're trying to sabotage the biggest night in the history of this fashion house.
01:02:30Just like you tried to sabotage the spring couture show.
01:02:38I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:40Enough!
01:02:49God, you are so embarrassing, Danny.
01:02:52You know, breaking up with you was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:56You did need the favor, really.
01:02:59Thank you so much for saving me from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:03:04Disappointment?
01:03:06If we're talking disappointment, I think it's you because you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:13Oh my god, is there security around here?
01:03:16This disturbed employee is trying to ruin my couture.
01:03:20And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:23So Leia is about to announce Brynn as the designer of her gown and you will not ruin this moment.
01:03:29Get your hands off her.
01:03:39Vanessa, what the hell have you done with my fashion house?
01:03:46Nothing, Mom. I fired Danny just like you asked.
01:03:48You what?
01:03:57I don't understand. It's a mistake.
01:03:58A mistake?
01:04:00A mistake?
01:04:01I...
01:04:03Oh my god, Mom, are you okay?
01:04:06I...I just need a minute.
01:04:09Okay.
01:04:12Anya, are you okay?
01:04:13Oh Danny, I'm fine.
01:04:16I...there's something I need to say.
01:04:20I can't let that old slut blow my cover.
01:04:23No, she shouldn't speak.
01:04:25She could have another heart attack.
01:04:28Security, get her out of here.
01:04:32I'm okay, I'm fine.
01:04:33Don't touch her, you're making it worse.
01:04:35Don't listen to anything this worthless server has to say.
01:04:38Take my mother somewhere quiet.
01:04:41I'm fine.
01:04:42I'll be right there.
01:04:44Danny!
01:04:45Hey, I said hands off.
01:04:47Unless you want me to cut it off, please.
01:04:49What the hell was that about?
01:04:56I know you've all been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the designer I've chosen to partner with.
01:05:03Bryn Maxwell, will you join me on stage?
01:05:07Oh my god, she had a poor joke malfunction.
01:05:12Brick!
01:05:13Fuck!
01:05:13Come on!
01:05:15What the fuck happened?
01:05:16I told you not to fuck it up.
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:18I don't know.
01:05:20What are you looking at me for?
01:05:22You're the designer of the dress.
01:05:25She wants to be a star designer, so that let's see if she has the skills to throw it off.
01:05:30Someone needs to fix this now!
01:05:34Danny, Danny, if that dress splits anymore, this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:38I know you can do it.
01:05:39I'm so pleased you go ahead and fix the dress.
01:05:44Why would I be able to help?
01:05:45I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:50Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:54No.
01:05:54Danny is a Nepo baby intern who knows nothing.
01:05:57And Bryn is the creative genius.
01:06:00Remember?
01:06:01Yes, right?
01:06:02Right.
01:06:02Right.
01:06:03I totally know what I'm doing.
01:06:06Mm-hmm.
01:06:07Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress up.
01:06:11Mm-hmm.
01:06:16Thanks, Danny.
01:06:17I knew you were useless.
01:06:19They got Bryn's here.
01:06:21I can do this.
01:06:23How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:29I put my heart and soul into a dress.
01:06:31Soleil will be proud to wear at the Vecala.
01:06:33And you built your couture house from the ground up and made so many sacrifices to hire me.
01:06:41I can't let Bryn ruin it all.
01:06:43I have to show Soleil what I can do.
01:06:45So go show them who you are.
01:06:49Prove to say that you are the genius behind that dress.
01:06:58Bryn.
01:06:59The seams are delicate.
01:07:00The stitch has to be.
01:07:01Shut up!
01:07:02You're ruining her concentration.
01:07:04Um, weren't you the girl who was, like, banned from the Met Gala for her life?
01:07:08Yeah, she is.
01:07:09She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:11I shouldn't be here?
01:07:12Look at the way Bryn's holding that needle.
01:07:15How much longer can you keep on this act?
01:07:16Just step aside and let me...
01:07:21Okay, somebody has to call Hannah Summer.
01:07:23The chair of the Gala will know how to handle this dirty little party crasher.
01:07:31What now?
01:07:32We have a security situation.
01:07:33Party crasher on the Gala floor.
01:07:35Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:38Danny?
01:07:39Anya's star designer?
01:07:41I'm fine.
01:07:45I am not some delicate little flower.
01:07:48I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:53Hannah, darling.
01:07:57Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the Gala.
01:08:02Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:08:04What?
01:08:06I said I've got it.
01:08:10Fine.
01:08:11That's the way you want it to be.
01:08:17See?
01:08:18As a true genius behind this dress, I think it's good as new.
01:08:24Shout out to my hella talented designer Brynn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture for dressing me tonight.
01:08:31Thanks to her, I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:39All of my hard work ruined by Brynn's ego.
01:08:54What's that?
01:08:56You know, it takes a profound lack of talents to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:09:04Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair job was that?
01:09:06That girl is so not worthy of dressing Salaya.
01:09:09Yes, I am.
01:09:11I'm suing Anya Winters for all your brand is worth.
01:09:14This is all your fault.
01:09:16My fault?
01:09:18I was trying to help.
01:09:20I was trying to take your mom's little washed up brand and make it relevant by dressing the hottest,
01:09:24most famous woman in the world.
01:09:26How dare you call my mother's brand washed up.
01:09:29You're gonna pay for that.
01:09:30How?
01:09:31Are you gonna fire me like you fired Danny?
01:09:35When all those loser designers got let go.
01:09:38I replace the staff with my own people.
01:09:40If I go, they go.
01:09:43How will Anya Winters keep its title as number one couture house without a design staff?
01:09:49You won't keep your spot as number one, as long as you have a fraud like Brynn
01:09:53as your creative director either.
01:09:57Dude, that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:10:00I'm calling my lawyers.
01:10:02Brynn, this is all your fault.
01:10:05Okay, if you guys all want someone to blame for this, why did you blame Fanny?
01:10:08Okay, I didn't even make that stupid dress.
01:10:11She did.
01:10:17I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't mean.
01:10:19I think it's finally time to show them who you really are.
01:10:24Brynn's right.
01:10:24Okay, I designed the dress.
01:10:28And I'll prove it.
01:10:38Solea, will you meet me on stage?
01:10:41Don't!
01:10:42You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch.
01:10:45I mean, look at her.
01:10:46She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:49Image means nothing without substance, without talent.
01:10:54A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:56Damn, that's deep.
01:10:59I agree.
01:11:00I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:18Danny Maxwell, you were a genius.
01:11:29I have never seen something so stunning.
01:11:32I need her to dress me like that.
01:11:34Wait, this means that I fumbled a super talented baddie?
01:11:40Fuck!
01:11:41It's everything I've ever wanted.
01:11:44You saved this night.
01:11:48Holy cow, this is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
01:11:53You're a visionary.
01:11:54And this time, everyone knows it.
01:11:58Solea, who are you wearing?
01:12:01I'm wearing Danny Maxwell.
01:12:08The Corset Jean Couture.
01:12:11I can't be.
01:12:12Danny's the superstar designer that I've found.
01:12:15This is what I've been trying to tell you.
01:12:17Danny is a fashion icon.
01:12:22Eww.
01:12:23You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's couture brand.
01:12:28You were the brain-dead nepo baby idiot she warned me about.
01:12:31What is that strung out deadbeat intern doing at the fucking Met Gala?
01:12:37I thought you fired her.
01:12:39I didn't fire her.
01:12:41Um, I actually promoted her to creative director.
01:12:44You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my star designer?
01:12:52Yeah, I did.
01:12:54Do you know how hard I've worked?
01:12:56Do you know how much money I spent to get Danny Maxwell in my fashion house?
01:13:02She is the lifeblood of this brand.
01:13:06And what did you do?
01:13:07Do you fired her?
01:13:12So is that Maxwell along?
01:13:15Vanessa, you're fired.
01:13:18No, Mom, please, please, you can't.
01:13:19I, I, I need this.
01:13:21I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter.
01:13:23When I turned this over to you, my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture.
01:13:29And now look at it.
01:13:30It's a laughing stock.
01:13:33You.
01:13:33You did this.
01:13:35Mom, I'm really sorry.
01:13:38She made me fucked up.
01:13:40How did I fucked up so bad?
01:13:42Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala and she personally banned Danny.
01:13:51You would not want to bash an outcast on your team now, would you?
01:13:54You have some nerve telling me what I did or didn't do?
01:14:01You duped us all into thinking you're a fashion icon when you're nothing more than
01:14:07a dirty scammer in a designer dress.
01:14:12Danny Maxwell is officially granted a lifetime invitation to the Met Gala.
01:14:19But you are banned forever.
01:14:23And you're fired too.
01:14:25Security.
01:14:26No.
01:14:26Take her away.
01:14:27No, please.
01:14:28Hand her over to the cops.
01:14:29She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion.
01:14:32No, please.
01:14:36Danny, please come back to work for me.
01:14:40You know how much I have done for you.
01:14:44My fashion house can't survive without you.
01:14:46I am begging you.
01:14:50Everything you gave me,
01:14:51I gave it all back when your daughter accused me of sabotaging a thing I put my heart and soul
01:14:56into creating.
01:14:57No, she's exaggerating.
01:14:59That's not what happened.
01:15:00It was Brynn.
01:15:01She was scheming to try to steal Danny's job the whole time.
01:15:05That bitch duped me and got me all confused.
01:15:07Seriously?
01:15:09Well, that confusion almost cost me my whole fashion career and everything I've worked for.
01:15:14Did it feel good making me take the fall for your stupid mistakes?
01:15:17Danny, look, I'm so sorry.
01:15:22I'm sorry too.
01:15:25I'm not coming back to Anya Winter Couture.
01:15:28I'm staying where I know I'm appreciated.
01:15:30Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style.
01:15:35So please step aside.
01:15:42This is our moment.
01:15:47Then we at Claude Saint-Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best on it.
01:15:50You've ruined it.
01:15:59You have ruined everything I've built.
01:16:02I can't.
01:16:03Oh my god.
01:16:07Wow, they're really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:10Yes.
01:16:11I'm sorry, are you crying?
01:16:13Mm-hmm.
01:16:15God, you're hot.
01:16:17Have you ever wanted to be the face of the menswear line?
01:16:21Hell yeah.
01:16:24You better not show up at the office tomorrow.
01:16:27I never should have hired you.
01:16:32Oh no, I need a job.
01:16:34Vanessa, Vanessa.
01:16:38I'm too hot to be on these streets.
01:16:39I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who made my dress team.
01:16:57Give me five minutes.
01:17:01I knew you'd take back your crown.
01:17:16Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:19I always have.
01:17:20And I always will.
01:17:21Congratulations.
01:17:36You made it to the top.
01:17:39And that's where I'll stay.
01:17:51I will be doing a motorcycle.
01:17:53I'm excited for you.
01:17:54I won't be like, show up!
01:17:56You
