Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I can't find a delivery anywhere. The entire Anya Winter-Spring collection is missing hours before the Paris runway show.
00:00:10I can get the courier on the phone. This is a nightmare!
00:00:13Bad news. The delivery truck lost control.
00:00:17Thirty couture gallons. Destroyed. We're gonna have to cancel the show.
00:00:22No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is Anya's biggest collection ever, okay?
00:00:27She worked on it for years, and if she comes back and we have nothing to show, we're all dead!
00:00:32What other designer besides Anya can make an entire couture collection in just hours?
00:00:38Don't worry, guys. I can handle it.
00:00:42Didn't she graduate college, like, yesterday?
00:00:45She definitely looks like she just pulled an all-nighter in a library.
00:00:47There's no way some intern who grabs coffee and schedules Anya's lunches can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:52Guys, there's no time to argue. The show is in five hours!
00:00:56What are we gonna do?
00:00:58Give me that.
00:01:06And this.
00:01:10What is she doing?
00:01:15She's not even using a pattern.
00:01:16I've never seen someone beat so quickly.
00:01:19Invisible stitching, it's immaculate.
00:01:23There you have it.
00:01:25A gown fit for the Anya Winter Spring Couture collection.
00:01:30This is impossible.
00:01:35I thought you were just some delusional intern, but this dress...
00:01:40Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:43This is gonna launch a million dupes, but none of them are gonna come close to the real thing.
00:01:48I heard Anya recently hired a fashion school prodigy who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:54Is that you?
00:01:58No, it's delusional white!
00:01:59Um, Miss Winter, I'm here to...
00:02:10I'm here for the fall internship.
00:02:12It's Anya.
00:02:13Why would I have time to interview some useless errand-running baby when the fall couture show is in two days and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:22May I?
00:02:23Sure.
00:02:24I'm so sorry that I brushed the fabric and destroyed the flower.
00:02:33Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:37Not everybody knows that.
00:02:39An entire team of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:46Forget about the internship.
00:02:48You are gonna be my head designer.
00:02:51There's no time to explain.
00:02:53We need 29 more gowns to make before the show.
00:02:56It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:57Where are we gonna find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:03:00Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:03:01And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:05And rip the fringe of the carpet.
00:03:07And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:09And I need flowers to stack.
00:03:14But we're gonna destroy this place.
00:03:15Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:18Anya will understand.
00:03:23You're a visionary.
00:03:24Now let's kill this fashion show.
00:03:25I'm speechless.
00:03:26I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:29This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:30Dior who?
00:03:31Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:35Dior who?
00:03:36Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:42You all head back to the studio?
00:03:43I'll grab some champagne.
00:03:44And they are coming over.
00:03:45I'll grab a champagne.
00:03:46I'll go in the next one.
00:03:47Now let's finish.
00:03:48Let's go in.
00:03:49We're going to add one stick.
00:03:50You should do this for it.
00:03:51I'm speechless.
00:03:52I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:53This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:54Dior who?
00:03:55Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:56You all head back to the studio, I'll grab some champagne.
00:04:12I can't believe Dani completed this entire collection overnight.
00:04:18Where'd she even come from?
00:04:20No clue, but her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:26What the hell is going on here?
00:04:30This is disgusting.
00:04:32Is this a design studio or the girls' bathroom of a club?
00:04:35We make groundbreaking pieces with our hands, not our big fat mouths.
00:04:39Jordan, who is this woman?
00:04:41Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:43PR?
00:04:44This woman is the daughter of Anya Winter.
00:04:48Vanessa got her degree from central St. Martin's in London and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:55And she'll be acting as CEO while Anya recovers from a minor heart attack.
00:04:59Is this really the design team that created the top couture collection in all of Paris Fashion Week?
00:05:05Because all I'm seeing is a bunch of incompetent yappers.
00:05:08If this is about the original collection...
00:05:10I didn't ask you to speak.
00:05:12You're fired.
00:05:14Pack up your bags and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:19Anya Winter is now the top couture collection in the entire world.
00:05:24Time to separate the fashion icons from the frogs.
00:05:28You think my mother is a hard ass?
00:05:30Just you wait.
00:05:31I expect only the most original exciting sketches, lightning fast designs, and perfect technicality.
00:05:39And no unnecessary distractions.
00:05:42Who does she think she is?
00:05:43Miranda Priestly?
00:05:44Oh my god.
00:05:46What is this?
00:05:51Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:58No!
00:05:59That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:05Well, you should have done a better job reinforcing your seams.
00:06:09Jordan, be a doll and go get her a souvenir Eiffel Tower keychain as a thank you for her hard work.
00:06:16Oh yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:22Okay!
00:06:23Now please, can somebody show me something?
00:06:26A collection!
00:06:27Congratulations!
00:06:29Who are you?
00:06:33You.
00:06:34You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:37You're fired.
00:06:39Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:42Danny Maxwell.
00:06:44Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:48Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:51She's an intern?
00:06:53Mmm.
00:06:54So what?
00:06:55You decided that you could take advantage of my mother's showroom to throw a rager the night before the biggest couture show in the history of this house?
00:07:03That's not what we-
00:07:04I would say we could take out the damages from your salary, but you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:10Actually, she's our highest paid employee.
00:07:12She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:14Jordan!
00:07:15That's, that's confidential.
00:07:17So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:19You know, she might be getting owned, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:23And what?
00:07:24This is how you spend the money?
00:07:26No, no.
00:07:27Look, the team was up all night working.
00:07:29Our hands are cramping, we're tired, but we saved the spring show.
00:07:34Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:37Celebrate?
00:07:39By destroying a studio?
00:07:42Lying?
00:07:43Talking back to your superiors?
00:07:46Drinking on the job?
00:07:48No wonder my mother had a heart attack.
00:07:50Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities.
00:07:55Unless, of course, you're just as useless as she is.
00:07:58Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:01Jordan and I have been dating for two years.
00:08:04He knows how hard I work.
00:08:06But there's no way he's going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:09Danny's my girlfriend.
00:08:10If I take her side, I'll be committing a career suicide.
00:08:13You're right.
00:08:15Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:20Jordan, seriously?
00:08:21What are you still doing here, intern?
00:08:24Pack up your shit and get out of here.
00:08:27If that's how it's going to be.
00:08:28This isn't Danny's fault.
00:08:30She's the one who saved-
00:08:31Oh!
00:08:32Do you want to go with her?
00:08:34If anyone else here helps Danny destroy this studio, please feel free to speak up now.
00:08:41It's okay, guys.
00:08:42Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now.
00:08:45And you've all earned your spots.
00:08:47It was my fault.
00:08:50I'm leaving.
00:08:53How could you?
00:08:57I'll be back.
00:09:02Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:07Baby!
00:09:08I'm so sorry.
00:09:10We've been together for two years. You couldn't even defend me?
00:09:13She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:15Look, 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 that we're going to have at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:34Well, you better spring for caviar, too.
00:09:37You owe me big time, Jordan.
00:09:41I promise I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:44Let's meet tonight at 8, okay?
00:09:47Let's have a magical last night in Paris.
00:09:50I'll see you then.
00:09:54You're frumpy little girlfriend is a recipe for bad press.
00:10:01So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:04Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:07Thanks not much.
00:10:08She better not be.
00:10:11Hmm.
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?
00:10:22An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:24Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:29Say it.
00:10:31Mommy.
00:10:32What else?
00:10:34What else?
00:10:36Does baby need a change?
00:10:38Baby needs a change.
00:10:39Mm-hmm.
00:10:40Yeah, he does.
00:10:41Stinky.
00:10:42Stinky.
00:10:43Stinky.
00:10:44Yes, Mother.
00:10:45Mm-hmm.
00:10:47Stupid people.
00:10:52They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:59I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:11:02I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:11:07I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:09Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:12I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:16You better treat her right.
00:11:20Maxwell?
00:11:21Oh, God.
00:11:22Is that the frumpy intern I just fired?
00:11:24Hello?
00:11:25I'm speaking to you.
00:11:26Yes, Mother.
00:11:27One second.
00:11:30Is there any other Maxwell on the design?
00:11:32Oh, I'm going to just let me stop this at some point.
00:11:38She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:41A creative genius!
00:11:42I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't get their hands on her.
00:11:49Without her, this whole house will crumble.
00:12:00Don't worry, Mother.
00:12:01I'll treat her like a queen.
00:12:03You better.
00:12:04And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:06What is her name?
00:12:08Anyway, she is a fucking disaster.
00:12:11A brain-dead Nepo Baby intern who never shows up.
00:12:14And when she does, she's useless.
00:12:18Do me a favor.
00:12:20Fire her?
00:12:21Thank God.
00:12:23Of course, that tasteless tornado I fired was just a pointless intern.
00:12:27Don't worry, Mother.
00:12:28I already handled it.
00:12:30I'll come check on things the second they discharge me from this hellhole.
00:12:38Rest up, and I'll take care of everything.
00:12:43I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:47Now, where were we?
00:12:55What the hell do you want?
00:12:57The studio phone's been ringing off the hook.
00:12:59Well?
00:13:00Who is it?
00:13:01It's Solea's team.
00:13:02Solea?
00:13:03As in the most famous actress in the world?
00:13:05She needs a dress for the Met Gala.
00:13:07She wants to see sketches for five looks inspired by the new collection.
00:13:12In one hour.
00:13:16Oh.
00:13:17Let's hope Maxwell can pull this off.
00:13:19Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:20Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:25Jordan, get Brynn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:29What happened?
00:13:30I thought everyone would hate me for causing the crash that destroyed the whole collection.
00:13:42But...
00:13:43Guess they've got bigger problems.
00:13:44Danny, the grumpy dumbass.
00:13:45She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:13:46Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:13:47No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:48I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:13:50I'm definitely getting fired.
00:13:51Where are you?
00:13:52We need five sketches to send to Solea's team for her Met Gala look ASAP.
00:13:57Ms. Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:03Be right there.
00:14:04I'll be right there.
00:14:05Oh my gosh, she left her old sketch portfolio.
00:14:06She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:14:07Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:14:08No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:14:09I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:13Mr. Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:18Be right there.
00:14:22Why would they ask me, a brand new intern, to dress the most famous woman in the world?
00:14:27Whatever.
00:14:28I'll use Danny's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:31Oh my gosh, I'm gonna be a star.
00:14:35Well?
00:14:36Brynn's handling it.
00:14:38Nice work.
00:14:40Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, I'm so sick.
00:14:44I know.
00:14:45This 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 with the most rich and famous people.
00:14:56And you could be my Danny.
00:14:59Unless of course you want to go with Danny.
00:15:02Where is Jordan? He's 20 when it's late.
00:15:08I don't want her.
00:15:11I was gonna break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:14I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:17Good choice.
00:15:19Yes, I'll drag him here myself.
00:15:23Gosh, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:28It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:43She is a fashion superstar, okay? And you're just...
00:15:47An unemployed loser.
00:15:49You spineless dick.
00:15:51You psycho bitch, are you out of your fucking mind?
00:15:54That's it, you cheating piece of...
00:15:56Danny, Danny, you are embarrassing yourself.
00:15:59I'm the embarrassment.
00:16:01Three hours ago, you were begging for my forgiveness.
00:16:04And now you're shoving your tongue down your new box of the throat?
00:16:08Know your place, you tacky, talentless sloth.
00:16:13Face it, Danny.
00:16:14You're a failure.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for... upgrading.
00:16:19I love to, Jordan.
00:16:24And the only reason you're here is because of...
00:16:27Because I told Anya to make you PR manager.
00:16:30Are you kidding me?
00:16:32More ridiculous lies.
00:16:34You?
00:16:35You're a deadbeat intern.
00:16:36As if my mother would have anything to do with you.
00:16:41We...
00:16:42are...
00:16:44over...
00:16:45the end.
00:16:46I'm calling security.
00:16:51Why don't you call your mother instead?
00:16:52The founder of this house.
00:16:55She'll tell you that you're making a huge mistake.
00:16:58You know what, enough with the bullshit, Danny.
00:17:00It's cringe.
00:17:01Is 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
00:17:08who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:13Aw, Danny.
00:17:14Don't be sad.
00:17:15Look, I get it.
00:17:17I'm powerful.
00:17:18Smart.
00:17:20Experienced.
00:17:23And you?
00:17:24Well, you're jobless, talentless, and irrelevant.
00:17:29Look, if I were you, I would go on home and drown your sorrows in a bottle of cheap champagne.
00:17:35Unless, of course, you'd rather spend your last night in Paris in a jail cell.
00:17:38Fine.
00:17:40I'm done here anyway.
00:17:45And where do you think you're going, Danny?
00:17:48Guards!
00:17:49She's over here.
00:17:52Who the hell are you?
00:17:54I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture Collection.
00:17:57Brynn Maxwell.
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 Danny's glory.
00:18:19Who cares?
00:18:20As 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.
00:18:28I know who's responsible for destroying Anya's first Spring Collection.
00:18:33She's the one that made the routing error that caused the truck to crash.
00:18:36She's obviously trying to sabotage the brand.
00:18:39What?
00:18:40Danny's done it again.
00:18:41You know that one design school prodigy you've had your eye on?
00:18:42Danny Maxwell?
00:18:43She was just fired from Anya Winter's fashion house.
00:18:44The show's a hit.
00:18:45How is that possible?
00:18:46Apparently, Anya's daughter, Vanessa, forced her out.
00:18:47Of course.
00:18:48I would love to see the look on Anya Winter's face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo
00:18:49of a daughter fired her star designer.
00:18:50I'm sorry.
00:18:51I'm sorry.
00:18:52I'm sorry.
00:18:53I'm sorry.
00:18:54I'm sorry.
00:18:55I'm sorry.
00:18:56I'm sorry.
00:18:57I'm sorry.
00:18:58I'm sorry.
00:18:59I'm sorry.
00:19:00I'm sorry.
00:19:01I'm sorry.
00:19:02I'm sorry.
00:19:03I'm sorry.
00:19:04I'm sorry.
00:19:05I'm sorry.
00:19:06I'm sorry.
00:19:07But Anya Winter's is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:14We're not even ranked top ten.
00:19:16Dior and Chanel are probably banging down Danny's door already.
00:19:19You really think she would work for us?
00:19:20I'll do anything to get Danny on this team.
00:19:22Rumor has it, Soleil is looking for a new designer for her Met Gala 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.
00:19:36I'm going to Paris.
00:19:37And I'm not leaving without Danny Maxwell.
00:19:42Sabotage?
00:19:43Are you kidding me?
00:19:45You can take the fall from my stupid mistake, Danny.
00:19:48Who will believe you over me?
00:19:50You 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.
00:19:57You all see me as some incompetent intern just because I'm not wearing the latest off-the-runway clothes.
00:20:02Maybe daddy's black card can buy you Celine, but can it buy you talent too?
00:20:06You think I caused that disaster?
00:20:09You 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, Danny Maxwell.
00:20:18I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate BS.
00:20:22Don't touch me.
00:20:24Jordan, don't let them do this.
00:20:26We both know you're not capable of handling the outcome.
00:20:29First you threaten Brynn, and then you threaten me.
00:20:32You know, you shouldn't be such a bitter bitch, Danny.
00:20:36You know, jealousy looks hideous on you.
00:20:39So why don't you go ahead and pick up your mistakes and 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.
00:21:00Do it.
00:21:02If Vanessa calls Anya, she'll find out that Danny's the real star designer.
00:21:08Vanessa, your mom's in recovery.
00:21:11Shouldn't you go to the fashion council first instead to make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Danny's terrible taste?
00:21:19Brynn's right.
00:21:20You 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.
00:21:28I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:30Danny Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter.
00:21:34Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:39No other fashion house will want you now.
00:21:41Good luck getting a part-time job at Forever 21.
00:21:43Guess that's that then.
00:21:46But 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?
00:21:56What kind of idiot do you think I am, Danny?
00:21:59My mother practically begged me to fire your incompetent ass.
00:22:02You thought you could roll up here in your bargain bin sweater and call yourself a fashion icon?
00:22:09Your career is so hopeful.
00:22:11Hey, uh, security, can you take her away and throw her to something?
00:22:14Jail cell, police, whatever?
00:22:17Get your hands off of her.
00:22:22That is my new creative director.
00:22:26Danny Maxwell will join Claude Saint-Jean Fashion House.
00:22:30Claude Saint-Jean of Saint-Jean Couture?
00:22:33You came all the way from New York for me?
00:22:35Of course.
00:22:37I flew straight here.
00:22:40Nice to see you again, Danny.
00:22:42I haven't seen you since I interned at Valentino my freshman year.
00:22:45Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:51How'd you get that job, Danny?
00:22:53You scam your way into that one too?
00:22:56God, Danny.
00:22:57We went out and I 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.
00:23:09You know, I can't say I'm surprised with someone like you working here.
00:23:11Claude, I...
00:23:12That is Mr. Saint-Jean to you.
00:23:14And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:17Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:20You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:23Mr. Saint-Jean, Danny here has done irreparable damage and...
00:23:27Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:28Obviously, I.
00:23:29I'm right.
00:23:30I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:31Enough!
00:23:32This idiot destroyed my mother's collection, wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio, ruined the entire couture show, almost lost us millions.
00:23:41And why are we still talking about her?
00:23:43Did you not ask your mother who Danny was before you fired her?
00:23:50What 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 and you know what she said?
00:23:59She said that this idiot Danny 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?
00:24:30You little-
00:24:31Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:33Danny.
00:24:35Will you come with me and be my new creative director of Saint Jean 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. She's literally robbing us blinds.
00:24:46A million it is then.
00:24:51Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:53Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top ten.
00:24:56Are you clinically insane?
00:24:58You're an even bigger bullshitter than Danny.
00:25:01A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:05Hm.
00:25:06Way 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.
00:25:13Seriously, but it's not about the money.
00:25:16Danny, if you join my fashion house, the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:21Creative control over the next season's couture collection will be yours.
00:25:26My designers, my studio, my full trust.
00:25:31And hell, if you want me, I'm even yours too.
00:25:33Oh, Claude.
00:25:36Okay, look, I get it.
00:25:38You hustled from the bottom to build your own fashion brand, and I respect you for that.
00:25:43So let me remind you that Danny is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:48Even my mother says hiring her is a literal death wish.
00:25:51In that case...
00:25:58Okay.
00:25:59What is all this shit?
00:26:01This shit is everything that your mother gifted me.
00:26:03Her one and only key to her personal studio.
00:26:06The business black card in my name, which I could have used to repair the damages, but...
00:26:10I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:13You can tell Anya that I, Danny Maxwell, am more than happy to walk away from this fashion house and never, ever come back.
00:26:23Aww.
00:26:24So sad for us.
00:26:27Not.
00:26:28You did not deserve any special treatment, Danny.
00:26:31I mean, just look at you.
00:26:33Your complete fashion flop.
00:26:35You know, you are all so wrapped up in beauty standards and bullshit that you can't even see the design talent that is right in front of you.
00:26:43Danny, 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 gonna change that.
00:26:50I'll join as creative director.
00:26:53And by this time, next season's runway show, Saint Jean Couture will be number one.
00:26:59You know, I almost feel embarrassed for you, Danny.
00:27:05Losing your spot at the number one fashion house to go and work for this desperate up-and-comer.
00:27:12Although, who else would hire you?
00:27:15Embarrassed for her.
00:27:17You know Vanessa's gonna burn this place to the ground and you are gonna 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? And what exactly are you qualified for?
00:27:30Propositioning idiotic interns to go out and peddle up your hideous designs to some micro-influencers?
00:27:38What?
00:27:43I did.
00:27:46She did.
00:27:49She will.
00:27:51Who is that?
00:27:52That.
00:27:53The Soleil's team.
00:27:54They've asked for five sketches from Danny for her Met Gala look.
00:27:57What was that about micro-influencers?
00:28:01If I'm not mistaken, she has more followers than anyone in the world?
00:28:06Absolutely not.
00:28:07Brynn is supposed to design Soleil'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.
00:28:21Let's go, Danny.
00:28:22Gladly.
00:28:23I'm losing brain cells talking to these people.
00:28:26May the best designer win.
00:28:28Don't worry about her, Vanessa.
00:28:32Just send these to Soleil's team, and there's no way she won't pick us.
00:28:38I'll be Danny with her own designs.
00:28:41Oh, my God.
00:28:42Brynn, these are incredible.
00:28:45Between these and the spring couture collection, you've really proven yourself.
00:28:51I'm officially naming you as creative director of Anya Winter Couture.
00:28:55This is a dream come true.
00:29:01And don't forget about me in the face of the menswear line.
00:29:08Right.
00:29:09One step at a time.
00:29:11Stick with me and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:16Every designer will be gunning for our spot as top couture collection in the world.
00:29:21That's why we need to dress Soleil at the Met Gala.
00:29:24And no one can touch us.
00:29:27Not even clawed in that hack of Danny.
00:29:30I won't lay 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 Danny pulled that off.
00:29:45What the hell am I going to tell her?
00:29:47I used a highly specialized sewing technique that I learned in my final year of fashion school.
00:29:55The details are really boring. I could show you later.
00:29:58Of course. You have your own technique. You are the creative genius.
00:30:02I 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, you 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.
00:30:16Step aside, Danny. I'm the new couture queen now.
00:30:23What do you want?
00:30:26Anya, it's Claude Saint-Jean.
00:30:28Listen, I'm just calling to let you know that we are officially in the running to dress Soleil at her Met Gala.
00:30:33What?
00:30:35We 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. I'm just simply letting you know.
00:30:51Cheers.
00:30:52What 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 Danny?
00:31:09Unless...
00:31:13Mother, you'll never believe the sketches I got from.
00:31:16Tell me you didn't fire my most talented designer!
00:31:22Calm down, Mother, or else you'll have another heart attack!
00:31:25Like I told you already, I fired that brain-dead slacker intern.
00:31:30Why the hell is Claude Saint-Jean 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 and burn along with that talentless intern.
00:31:43They'll design something cheap and tacky for Soleil.
00:31:45And then she'll tell everybody she knows not to touch Saint-Jean-Couture with a ten-foot pole.
00:31:53And then their sad little fashion careers, they'll be over before they even started.
00:31:58So you...
00:32:00Gaslit Claude into hiring our cast-off?
00:32:04Sure did. He's convinced that the talentless Nepo Baby is the creative genius behind our spring line.
00:32:09That's brilliant!
00:32:12And I thought you're a weak little pushover like your father, but...
00:32:17Maybe you're more like me than I knew.
00:32:20Vanessa, I want you to take full control over the Met Gala partnership with Soleil.
00:32:26Oh, thank you!
00:32:27No more talking.
00:32:30It's time to get to work and we need to make damn sure Soleil picks our gown for the Gala.
00:32:35We are going to make Claude Saint-Jean 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.
00:32:49Are you sure she can handle this?
00:32:51Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:53My daughter can't fuck this up.
00:32:56Not with Danny Maxwell designing the gown for Soleil.
00:33:00Did I tell you that she actually convinced Claude Saint-Jean to hire our strung out sad sack of an intern?
00:33:09I get to sit back and watch Danny work her magic for Soleil's gown while that hack of a talent
00:33:17completely tanks what's left of Claude's fashion house.
00:33:30So, how does our studio compare to the great Anya Winters?
00:33:37It's insane what you've accomplished.
00:33:38I mean, four years ago you were a glorified errand boy at Valentino and now look at you.
00:33:44Your own couture line?
00:33:46It's everything you ever wanted.
00:33:49Not everything.
00:33:52Well, what about you Danny?
00:33:53I mean, when I met you, you were a quiet little intern and now you're a fashion genius?
00:33:58I'm serious.
00:34:00I mean, that work you did on that spring collection, it was inspiring.
00:34:03It's inspiring.
00:34:10Yes.
00:34:14Of course.
00:34:16You'll be there.
00:34:19So, Lea loved your Mechal sketches, huh?
00:34:22She tells her favorite from you and Brayden she wants you both to show her a sample.
00:34:26Oh my god, when?
00:34:29Tomorrow afternoon?
00:34:30You have 24 hours to make this dress for Solea.
00:34:33Better get started.
00:34:35I mean, we just got back from New York and I-
00:34:37You created an entire couture collection in what?
00:34:40Four hours?
00:34:42This should be a breeze, right?
00:34:43Right.
00:34:45I can totally pull this off.
00:34:47Then do it.
00:34:48Now!
00:34:52You think you can pull off creating a Mechal gown for a triple A-list celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:56Who do you think you're talking to?
00:34:57Well, whatever it is.
00:35:00It just needs to be better than this.
00:35:01This is our competition.
00:35:03That's my sketch!
00:35:07A fraud friend's been stealing my designs.
00:35:13Of course.
00:35:15She has no real talent of her own.
00:35:16Damn.
00:35:21Damn.
00:35:22That dress is insane.
00:35:24A skirt made of stained glass?
00:35:27Insane is right.
00:35:29It's gonna be nearly impossible to sew a bodice I could support the weight of the skirt.
00:35:33If Solea puts on this gown, it's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:35:37Prima wants to be a fashion icon so bad.
00:35:40How will she pull us off?
00:35:42Then it's an easy win.
00:35:43Right?
00:35:44We just sit back and let the thieves crash and burn.
00:35:47Not exactly.
00:35:49I'm gonna make the same exact dress.
00:35:51Only better.
00:35:53Then there'll be no question who the real designer is.
00:35:56But I thought you said it was impossible to pull off.
00:35:58I said nearly impossible.
00:36:06Brin can try to rip off my designs all she wants.
00:36:10But without the brains or skills to back it up, there's no way she's gonna pull it off.
00:36:15And if she tries, that gown is gonna fall apart faster than you can say fashion victim.
00:36:24Let's remember this day.
00:36:25The last day that Classe Jean Couture will be at the bottom of the fashion food chase.
00:36:32By this time tomorrow, we'll be the new rulers of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:40What the hell is this?
00:36:42Why can't you guys attach the top of the dress to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:47Brin, the skirt is too heavy.
00:36:49I have no excuses!
00:36:51We have four hours to make a dress for Solea.
00:36:55Ugh!
00:37:00Gosh, I wish I was getting trash at a club right now.
00:37:03Brin!
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.
00:37:14I need an update on the Met Gala.
00:37:16Now!
00:37:17Don't worry, Mother.
00:37:18I have everything under control.
00:37:19That clown, Claude, and that fraud designer are going down.
00:37:25You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:27Your mother raised an amazing woman.
00:37:32Keep it up.
00:37:34There might be another promotion in your future.
00:37:35If I can pull this off, I'll go down in fashion history.
00:37:43Who's the brain-dead Nepo baby now?
00:37:45Denny.
00:37:46Denny.
00:37:47Denny.
00:37:48Wake up.
00:37:49Come on.
00:37:50Denny, Denny, wake up, come on, let's get you to bed.
00:38:20Good morning superstar.
00:38:43This is it, the gown that can make or break me.
00:38:46You should be proud Denny, it's exceptional, just like you.
00:39:01Thanks I, I couldn't have done it without you, oh god, I need to change what I'm wearing
00:39:15to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:17Don't worry about it, I had my editor friend Marco pull some things from the Vogue closet
00:39:22for you.
00:39:24Pick anything you like.
00:39:29See you at the meeting.
00:39:34Gosh, this is a freaking disaster, what am I going to do?
00:39:47Brynn!
00:39:49That better be the best stress you've ever made.
00:39:55Let's go.
00:40:02Ready to retire early Claude?
00:40:04We're going to get that Met Gala partnership.
00:40:06In 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 Saleya.
00:40:13Did 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.
00:40:22Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:24Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:29I 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 Saleya would even trust that unstylish little piece of-
00:40:39Danny, you look stunning.
00:40:52Thanks.
00:40:55Speechless.
00:40:56Is that a first?
00:40:58Are those that-
00:40:59One of a kind Anya winter fall couture books?
00:41:02Yes, I am.
00:41:05Okay, but why would my mother give you those?
00:41:07She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:09They were a gift for designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:12What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:15Look, I always knew you were a lazy, dead beep intern, but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:21That's a whole new low.
00:41:23Taking credit for another designer's work.
00:41:26Friend, I know a thing or two about that.
00:41:29Watch-
00:41:30Careful now.
00:41:32Do you think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:36This-
00:41:37Give me that.
00:41:38This is what the work of a genuine fashion superstar looks like.
00:41:43If Vanessa opens the bag, everyone's gonna see that I'm a total fraud.
00:41:49Saleya, we'll see you now.
00:41:51Designers only.
00:41:53For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:58Hey.
00:42:00You've got this.
00:42:01There's no way she's not gonna pick you.
00:42:07Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership.
00:42:10Don't fuck it up.
00:42:12I won't let you down.
00:42:13Saleya is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes.
00:42:19You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:21Just don't touch anything.
00:42:23The dress you made?
00:42:27Is that an original Bryn Maxwell design?
00:42:31Or is it stolen?
00:42:33I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:36You mean you didn't steal my portfolio and pass off my sketches as yours so you could dress the most famous woman in the world for the Met Gala?
00:42:45Tell me Bryn, have you ever actually picked up a sewing needle?
00:42:51That dress you designed is beautiful but very, very complicated.
00:42:57How did you manage to pull that off?
00:43:01We'll just see.
00:43:03Won't we?
00:43:04Yes, we will.
00:43:14Ugh, my gown is hideous.
00:43:16If I don't do something fast, everyone's gonna find out that I'm a total frost.
00:43:20I've just gotten a taste of fashion fame and I'm not letting Danny that disaster take it from me.
00:43:41Bye-bye, Danny.
00:43:55So Leia's arriving now.
00:43:56No photos, no sucking up, and no touching.
00:44:00Unless she touches you.
00:44:01Got it?
00:44:02Got it.
00:44:11So Leia, this is Bryn Maxwell.
00:44:13It's so nice to meet you.
00:44:15Where's the other one?
00:44:16She must be running a little bit late.
00:44:18I hate people who waste my time.
00:44:20I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:24Let's see it then.
00:44:28Oh!
00:44:29Ugh!
00:44:30No!
00:44:31Ah!
00:44:32Ah!
00:44:33Ah!
00:44:34Ah!
00:44:35Ah!
00:44:36Ah!
00:44:37Ah!
00:44:38Ah!
00:44:39Ah!
00:44:40Ah!
00:44:44Bryn knocked me out and stole my dress.
00:44:47I knew she was a snake, but...
00:44:49I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:53The sample preview is starting now and...
00:44:56I have nothing to show.
00:45:04Or maybe...
00:45:05I did.
00:45:07I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:15Sorry, fam. It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:18This is, like, the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:23I feel connected to it on, like, a cosmic level.
00:45:26I must wear this dress.
00:45:28I knew you would love it.
00:45:29But what about the other designer? She might...
00:45:32She's late. I'll give her three seconds.
00:45:34If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:37Three, two...
00:45:39Wait!
00:45:41I'm so sorry. I'm late, Soleil. I had a little...
00:45:44bump in the road.
00:45:48I suppose I can forgive you. Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:52Nice gown, Brynn.
00:45:54I wish I could say the same, Dani, but...
00:45:58you are stinks.
00:46:00Gee, I wonder why that is.
00:46:03This dress is so trippy.
00:46:06My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:10Okay, but you're not, like, crying. I mean, like, mine is still better.
00:46:15Right?
00:46:17I wouldn't say that.
00:46:19What?
00:46:19Isn't that crazy that you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me, and Soleil still likes my design better?
00:46:29How much longer can you keep up this shrink?
00:46:31I must know. I must know. What was your inspiration?
00:46:36I was inspired by those times when someone just tries to knock you out, and you get the trash and make a treasure.
00:46:46Like, the phoenix rises from the ashes again.
00:46:50Or like a rat from a dumpster.
00:46:52I've always felt spiritually connected to the phoenix.
00:46:56Dani, I feel like you really get me.
00:46:59You're a true artist with a true vision.
00:47:02Okay, well, what about my vision?
00:47:05What about my art?
00:47:07Brynn's right.
00:47:09She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:13Brynn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:19Well, crap. I have no idea how Dani made this. What do I say?
00:47:26How did I do it? Um, you're not gatekeeping your creative process from Soleil, 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?
00:47:44It's true. Soleil doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:47It's a simple question, Brynn.
00:47:50If you can't answer it, then, like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:55I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:48:01Clearly, she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:05Okay, this taped-together thing is not fashion, okay?
00:48:09It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:12Soleil, you cannot wear Dani's dress.
00:48:14I mean, look at it. It's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:48:18Besides, 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.
00:48:28Thanksgiving, I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:31Well, obviously, this is just a sample. The real dress would not be-
00:48:35Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:38I mean, Soleil, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway, but Dani's?
00:48:43Dani's is probably made out of disease, rat feces, and meat juice.
00:48:50Oh, God. You know I'm a die-hard vegan.
00:48:56I've made my decision.
00:48:58The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:49:03Brin's.
00:49:06I can't wear street trash to the Met Gala. It's too big of a risk, even for me.
00:49:12Oh, I'm sorry, Dani. But it's easier to go back to trash when you are trash.
00:49:19But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:24Brin, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:27Like, like, right now?
00:49:29You made this dress in 24 hours. Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:34Once Soleil sees Brin for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:38Yeah. Brin, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do? Now.
00:49:52I really work better alone.
00:49:55Not today you don't. Do you want me to wear your dress to the Met Gala or not?
00:49:59This is it. This is it.
00:50:03The moment everyone sees that I'm a total fraud.
00:50:06The moment my talents will finally be recognized.
00:50:11Soleil, Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine is here to see you.
00:50:16Oh my god, and she's the chair of the Met Gala board.
00:50:19She must have heard I'm picking my dress today.
00:50:21Maybe they're going to do a feature.
00:50:22Oh my god, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:29Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:31Miss Summer had to take a call in the car and sent me up instead.
00:50:35I'm her personal assistant, here to deliver a message.
00:50:40On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders,
00:50:44Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:53Banned? What the hell for?
00:50:54Insubordination, sabotage amounting to millions of dollars in potential losses,
00:51:01a general lack of personal style.
00:51:04Those aren't just faceless lies.
00:51:07I think we all know who the real liar is here, Danny.
00:51:11How dare you come into Soleil's personal studio, waste her precious time knowing you are hated by
00:51:17literally everyone in the fashion industry.
00:51:20Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:23This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:26This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:29Get her out of here. Now.
00:51:35Congratulations. I can't wait to wear your gown to the Met Gala.
00:51:40And I can't wait to steal all of Danny's glory.
00:51:43Hey, Danny, what the hell?
00:51:48Hey, get your hands off of me right now.
00:51:52You okay?
00:51:54Okay, I'd stay back if I were you, unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life too.
00:51:59Banned? By who?
00:52:02Hannah Summer herself.
00:52:04The editor-in-chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:10This is the best day of my life.
00:52:11Haha, mine too.
00:52:14Vanessa, I bow to you.
00:52:16Okay.
00:52:19I am the real hero here.
00:52:21I mean, Soleil is wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:24And Danny here is going to get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:28The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:31I've given everything for this fashion house.
00:52:34And how do you repay me?
00:52:36By turning everyone in the industry against me?
00:52:38Not everyone.
00:52:42Let's go, Danny.
00:52:51I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:55I believe it.
00:52:57We'll get our latest post.
00:52:59Can't wait to reveal my hashtag Met Gala look tomorrow.
00:53:02I'll be giving the designer a very special shout out on stage after my exclusive performance.
00:53:07I'll be giving the designer a very special shout out on stage.
00:53:11That's my dress.
00:53:11That should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:15Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this.
00:53:16They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:19And they're everything that you're not.
00:53:24You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:26And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:31I know what I have to do.
00:53:36I'm going to sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:39Hell yes you are.
00:53:40I'm sneaking into the Met Gala tomorrow.
00:53:43I have work to do.
00:53:44Hey, hey, hey.
00:53:46Let me handle that.
00:53:48Now, let's drink.
00:53:48Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:55Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:53:58But it will.
00:53:59You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:07Didn't they used to call you one cup club?
00:54:12You're tall, but you're quite delicate.
00:54:16I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:18And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:29Oh, you were lightweight.
00:54:40Speak for yourself.
00:54:44Let's get you to bed.
00:54:47You used to watch the same thing.
00:54:49Seriously, I'm not kidding.
00:54:54Oh, Lord.
00:54:59I suddenly feel very sober.
00:55:04Me too.
00:55:29What do you think?
00:55:30I think the stitching's immaculate.
00:55:33But what's it for?
00:55:35This.
00:55:38Yeah, this is your party crashing uniform.
00:55:41Marco's going to meet you on the side entrance of the Gala.
00:55:45I owe you both my life.
00:55:48I just want to make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:53I'll meet you there.
00:55:58Where are you going?
00:56:00I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:56:04When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house and sent a fraud to the
00:56:08biggest event in fashion history, it's going to be over for her and Bryn.
00:56:15For everything.
00:56:20I'll meet you there.
00:56:23I'll meet you there.
00:56:29Good luck.
00:56:40We'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.
00:56:52And, oh my god, Solea!
00:56:56Darling, how are you?
00:56:57Oh my god, I am freaking out right now.
00:57:00I mean, this gown!
00:57:04Anyway, best dress of the night, hands down.
00:57:09Now tell me, who made this incredible creation?
00:57:12I'm actually not revealing who made it yet, but it'll be a big surprise for everyone inside.
00:57:17Cryptic. I love it.
00:57:19Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:23You know, that spring collection that you did was just like, whoa, you know?
00:57:31Yeah, I'm kind of like,
00:57:36a genius.
00:57:42Bryn got me banned from the Met Gala, but I made it in.
00:57:46And soon she'll be exposed for the fraud she is.
00:57:48How did that slut get in here?
00:57:51She's going to ruin everything.
00:57:55Champagne Bryn?
00:57:57You cannot be here.
00:57:59You competed against me to dress Solea, the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala, and you lost.
00:58:05Okay, tonight is my special night and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:09I'm the one who designed Solea's dress. I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:14After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown,
00:58:18she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:21Bryn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:25I do not have to answer.
00:58:28Face it, Dani, I have won the respect of everyone who matters in the fashion industry.
00:58:34I'm going to be up there next to Solea on that stage,
00:58:37basking in all your glory.
00:58:39And you?
00:58:41You will still be a no one.
00:58:45You come in here dressed up like a servant expecting me to do what?
00:58:48Fall out your feet and go, oh I'm so sorry Dani, you are so smart and so talented.
00:58:54Never gonna happen.
00:58:56I am rubbing elbows with the hottest, most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:59:01I am wearing the gown of the Met Gala.
00:59:03And you can't touch me now.
00:59:07And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:13Certainly not you if that's what you're implying.
00:59:18Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:22Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:26Do you think Brynn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:35Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:38Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:40And what have you done to prove yourself? Sneak into the Met Gala dressed as the help?
00:59:47You know, the servant suit really fits you, Dani. I think you, uh, found your true calling.
00:59:52Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
00:59:57You know, we dated for two years and I never asked you for a thing.
01:00:02But the minute Vanessa offers you 15 minutes of fame, you drop me without a thought.
01:00:09What will you do once she's used you up and left you in the dust?
01:00:12You have no idea what you're talking about.
01:00:19Yeah. Jealousy is a disease, Dani.
01:00:24Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:30You literally got banned for being a talentless scammer.
01:00:33Are you really so desperate to steal my glory that you'd crash the biggest night in fashion?
01:00:39You must be psychotic.
01:00:41Really? And what's the word for stealing another designer's work and using it for clothing?
01:00:53Claude, did you come here to fall at my feet and beg me for a job now that my fashion house
01:01:03officially has the Met Gala partnership and yours?
01:01:07Yours is dead in the water.
01:01:09I bet you regret hiring that sneaky little weasel now, don't you?
01:01:14Not as much as you're going to regret putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:16Excuse me?
01:01:20Look.
01:01:20I know you and I haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:01:29But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:34There's something you should see.
01:01:34Bitch!
01:01:39My star designer worked her fingers to the bone to make that dress for Salaya.
01:01:44Don't you dare try to take credit for her creative genius.
01:01:48Very soft.
01:01:53But if she worked her fingers to the bone, then wear the calces.
01:01:56Ugh!
01:01:57How dare you assault me.
01:01:59Leave.
01:02:00Now.
01:02:01Or what?
01:02:02So entitled.
01:02:04You know, you should be grateful to my mother for even allowing you to step foot into her historic couture house.
01:02:10I never said I wasn't.
01:02:12Your mother is one of the best designers in the world and she took a chance on me.
01:02:18I've always been grateful to her.
01:02:19Grateful.
01:02:21You've tarnished her name and reputation and now you're trying to sabotage the biggest night in the history of this fashion house.
01:02:28Just like you tried to sabotage the spring couture show.
01:02:36I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:38Enough!
01:02:39God, you are so embarrassing, Danny.
01:02:50You know, breaking up with you was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:54You did me the favor, really.
01:02:56Thank you so much for saving me from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:03:02Disappointment!
01:03:03If we're talking disappointment, I think it's you because you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:09Oh my god, is there security around here?
01:03:14This disturbed employee is trying to ruin my couture.
01:03:18And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:21So Leia is about to announce Brynn as the designer of her gown and you will not ruin this moment.
01:03:31Get your hands off of her.
01:03:32Vanessa, what the hell have you done with my fashion house?
01:03:44Nothing, mom. I fired Danny just like you asked.
01:03:47You what?
01:03:47I don't understand. It's a mistake.
01:03:56A mistake? A mistake? I...
01:04:01Oh my god, mom, are you okay?
01:04:04I... I just need a minute.
01:04:06Okay.
01:04:09Anya, are you okay?
01:04:11Oh, Danny. I'm fine. I... there's something I need to say.
01:04:17I can't let that old slut blow my cover.
01:04:20No, she shouldn't speak. She could have another heart attack.
01:04:25Security, get her out of here.
01:04:29I'm okay. I'm fine.
01:04:30I'm fine.
01:04:31Don't touch her. You're making it worse.
01:04:32Don't listen to anything this worthless server has to say.
01:04:35Take my mother somewhere quieter.
01:04:36I'm fine. I'll be right there.
01:04:41Danny!
01:04:43Hey, I said hands off. Unless you want to be cut it off, please.
01:04:48What the hell was that about?
01:04:53I know you've all been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the designer I've chosen to partner with.
01:05:01Bryn Maxwell, will you join me on stage?
01:05:03Oh my god. She had a wardrobe malfunction.
01:05:10Break the fuck for me. Come on.
01:05:12What the fuck happened? I told you not to fuck out.
01:05:14I don't know.
01:05:18What are you looking at me for?
01:05:19You're the designer of the dress.
01:05:22She wants to be a star designer, so that let's see if she has the skills to throw it off.
01:05:26Oh! Someone needs to fix this! Now!
01:05:31Danny, if that dress splits anymore, this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:36I know you can do it. So, please, you go ahead and fix the dress.
01:05:41Why would I be able to help? I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:46Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:51No.
01:05:52Danny is a Nepo baby intern who knows nothing. And Bryn is the creative genius. Remember?
01:05:58Yes.
01:05:59Right? Right! I... I totally know what I'm doing.
01:06:04Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress up.
01:06:08Thanks, Danny. I knew you were useless that God brings here.
01:06:18I can do this. How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:26I put my heart and soul into a dress so I will be proud to wear at the Met Gala.
01:06:30And you built your couture house from the ground up and made so many sacrifices to hire me.
01:06:35I can't let Bryn ruin it all. I have to show Soleil what I can do.
01:06:44So, go show them who you are. Prove to Soleil that you are the genius behind that dress.
01:06:55Bryn, the seams are delicate. The stitch has to be...
01:06:58Shut up! You're ruining her concentration.
01:07:01Um, might be the girl who was, like, banned from the Met Gala for her life.
01:07:05Yeah, she is. She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:08I shouldn't be here? Look at the way Bryn's holding that needle.
01:07:12How much longer can you keep up... Just step aside and let me...
01:07:18Okay, somebody has to call Hannah Summer. The chair of the Gala will know how to handle this dirty little party crasher.
01:07:24What now? We have a security situation. Party crasher on the Gala floor. Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:35Danny? Anya's star designer?
01:07:41I'm fine. I am not some delicate little flower. I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:48Honey. Hannah, darling.
01:07:55Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the Gala.
01:07:59Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:08:01What?
01:08:03I said I've got it.
01:08:07Fine. That's the way you want it to be.
01:08:09See? As a true genius behind this dress, I think it's good as new.
01:08:23Shout out to my hella talented designer Bryn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture for dressing me tonight.
01:08:28Thanks to her, I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:32All of my hard work ruined by Bryn's ego.
01:08:53You know, it takes a profound lack of talents to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:08:56Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair gown was that?
01:09:03That girl is so not worthy of dressing Solea.
01:09:06Yes, I am.
01:09:08I'm suing Anya Winters for all your brand is worth.
01:09:11This is all your fault.
01:09:13My fault?
01:09:15I was trying to help. I was trying to take your mom's little washed up brand and make it relevant by
01:09:20dressing the hottest, most famous woman in the world.
01:09:23How dare you call my mother's brand washed up? You're gonna pay for that.
01:09:27How? Are you gonna fire me like you fired Danny?
01:09:32When all those loser designers got let go, I replaced the staff with my own people.
01:09:37If I go, they go.
01:09:40How will Anya Winters keep its title as number one couture house without a design staff?
01:09:46You won't keep your spot as number one, as long as you have a fraud like Bryn as your creative director either.
01:09:53Do that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:09:57I'm calling my lawyers.
01:09:59Bryn, this is all your fault.
01:10:02Okay, if you guys all want someone to blame for this, why didn't you blame Danny?
01:10:05Okay, I didn't even make that stupid dress. She did.
01:10:08I didn't, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't mean, I think it's finally time to show them who you really are.
01:10:19Bryn's right.
01:10:21I designed the dress.
01:10:23And I'll prove it.
01:10:26Sorry, will you meet me on stage?
01:10:37Don't.
01:10:39You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch. I mean look at her!
01:10:43She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:45Image means nothing without substance, without talent.
01:10:49A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:53Damn. That's deep.
01:10:55I agree. I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:19Lady Maxwell, you were a genius.
01:11:25I have never seen something so stunning.
01:11:28I need her to dress me like that.
01:11:30Wait, this means that I fumbled a super talented baddie?
01:11:35Oh, fuck!
01:11:37It's everything I've ever wanted.
01:11:39You saved this night.
01:11:43Holy cow.
01:11:45This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
01:11:49You're a visionary.
01:11:51And this time, everyone knows it.
01:11:54So, Leia! Who are you wearing?
01:11:57I'm wearing...
01:11:59Danny Maxwell.
01:12:03The corset jean couture.
01:12:06I can't be.
01:12:08Danny's the superstar designer that I've found.
01:12:11This is what I've been trying to tell you.
01:12:13Danny is a fashion icon.
01:12:16You.
01:12:18You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's couture brand.
01:12:22You were the brain dead network baby idiot she warned me about.
01:12:26What is that strung out deadbeat intern doing at the fucking Met Gala?
01:12:33I thought you fired her.
01:12:35I didn't fire her.
01:12:37Um, I actually promoted her to creative director.
01:12:40You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my star designer?
01:12:46Um, yeah, I did.
01:12:49Do you know how hard I've worked?
01:12:51Do you know how much money I spent to get Danny Maxwell in my fashion house?
01:12:58She is the lifeblood of this brand.
01:13:02And what did you do?
01:13:04You fired her?
01:13:08So, is that Maxwell along?
01:13:11Vanessa, you're fired.
01:13:13No, Mom, please, please. You can't. I need this.
01:13:17I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter.
01:13:19When I turned this over to you, my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture.
01:13:25And now look at it. It's a laughing stock.
01:13:28You.
01:13:30You did this.
01:13:32Mom, I'm really sorry.
01:13:34She made me fucked up.
01:13:36How did I fucked up so bad?
01:13:41Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala.
01:13:44And she personally banned Danny.
01:13:47You would not want to bash an outcast on your team now, would you?
01:13:50You have some nerve telling me
01:13:54what I did or didn't do?
01:13:57You duped us all into thinking you're a fashion icon
01:14:01when you're nothing more than a dirty scammer in a designer dress.
01:14:08Danny Maxwell is officially granted a lifetime invitation to the Met Gala.
01:14:13But you are banned forever.
01:14:18And you're fired too.
01:14:20Security?
01:14:21No!
01:14:22Take her away.
01:14:23No, please!
01:14:24Hand her over to the cops.
01:14:25She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion.
01:14:28No!
01:14:29Please!
01:14:30Ah!
01:14:31Danny, please come back to work for me.
01:14:35You know how much I have done for you.
01:14:38My fashion house can't survive without you.
01:14:42I am begging you.
01:14:45Everything you gave me, I gave it all back when your daughter accused me of sabotaging the thing I put my heart and soul into creating.
01:14:52No!
01:14:53She's exaggerating!
01:14:54That's not what happened!
01:14:55It was Brynn!
01:14:56She was scheming to try to steal Danny's job the whole time!
01:15:00That bitch duped me and got me all confused!
01:15:03Seriously?
01:15:04Well, that confusion almost cost me my whole fashion career and everything I've worked for.
01:15:09Did it feel good making me take the fall for your stupid mistakes?
01:15:14Danny, I'm so sorry.
01:15:17I'm sorry too.
01:15:20I'm not coming back to Anya Winter Couture.
01:15:23I'm staying where I know I'm appreciated.
01:15:26Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style.
01:15:31So please, step aside.
01:15:38This is our moment.
01:15:42And we at Claude Saint-Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best, Anya.
01:15:46You ruined it!
01:15:55You have ruined everything I've built!
01:15:58Hey!
01:16:03Wow.
01:16:04Really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:06Yes.
01:16:07I'm sorry, are you crying?
01:16:09No.
01:16:10God, you're hot.
01:16:12Yes.
01:16:13Have you ever wanted to be the face of a menswear line?
01:16:16Hell yeah.
01:16:20You better not show up at the office tomorrow.
01:16:22I never should have hired you.
01:16:24Oh, no.
01:16:25I need a job.
01:16:26Vanessa!
01:16:27Vanessa!
01:16:29I'm too hot to be on these streets!
01:16:33Call me.
01:16:34Danny!
01:16:35Why did I ever leave you?
01:16:36We have to take some riot carpet pics together.
01:16:48I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who made my dress team.
01:16:53Give me five minutes.
01:16:55I knew you'd take back your crown.
01:17:12Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:14I always have.
01:17:15And I always will.
01:17:16I always will.
