00:00:00I'm sorry. What? Are you sure?
00:00:05Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe it.
00:00:08The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:00:12Wait, what?
00:00:13One hundred billion dollars.
00:00:16What?
00:00:17It's Lady Thunder's move.
00:00:18You know, the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:00:21This is her first formal return back to the States and we're her first target.
00:00:27You got it.
00:00:28A hundred billion dollars.
00:00:34That's better.
00:00:35She was right.
00:00:37It was a hundred billion.
00:00:39Parker, find her.
00:00:42Find who?
00:00:43The girl from the Nairobi flight, Eleanor.
00:00:46I don't care what it takes, you find her.
00:00:48Understood, but what do you want with her?
00:00:52I'm going to marry her.
00:00:54Wait, what?
00:00:56I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:01:02She's the one I want.
00:01:08You self-important bitch.
00:01:11Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:12I get it, Eleanor.
00:01:14You're not upset about the breakup.
00:01:16You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:01:19Name your number.
00:01:20Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off and then we're done.
00:01:25Is that what you think?
00:01:27That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:30How about a hundred grand?
00:01:36Two hundred?
00:01:37Daniel.
00:01:38Three.
00:01:39Three.
00:01:40That's my final offer.
00:01:42Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:01:45Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:01:48Just take the money and go.
00:01:50Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:01:53God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:01:56And what do you mean by that?
00:01:58I mean, if you weren't selling yourself, how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:02:06Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:11What?
00:02:13How dare you, Eleanor?
00:02:15For the sake of our seven years together.
00:02:19Just take the money and leave.
00:02:21Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:24He's done it with you.
00:02:27Get it through your thick head.
00:02:31She's not worth your time.
00:02:33Oh, where's Margaret?
00:02:34Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:02:36Yeah.
00:02:36Said she had to handle something first, but she'll be here soon.
00:02:39Margaret?
00:02:43Margaret.
00:02:45Daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:02:49Practically next in line, next to the bathroom.
00:02:52Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:02:56Rich, properly pedigreed.
00:03:00And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:04Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:03:07You should leave.
00:03:09Trust me, you don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:03:12Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:19So that's what this really is about.
00:03:21This isn't about the job.
00:03:23This is about her.
00:03:24This is about Margaret.
00:03:25At least with her, I can build something bigger.
00:03:28Really?
00:03:29Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:03:33You?
00:03:35Please.
00:03:37So.
00:03:43Do you actually think you're better than me?
00:03:54Margaret, my dear.
00:03:55You're here.
00:03:58So.
00:03:59Who must be Eleanor?
00:04:01Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:04:04I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:04:07Bargain bin dress.
00:04:08Basic face.
00:04:10Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:13But don't mind her.
00:04:15She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:17She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:20So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:24I'm Margaret West, daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:30And you, you're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:35You're right.
00:04:37Unlike you, I don't need to cling to daddy's title to matter.
00:04:40Excuse me?
00:04:41You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:44Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:04:49Exactly.
00:04:52This is a ceremony for elites, not fed group.
00:04:56What the hell is going on?
00:05:01Oh, Margaret.
00:05:04Is everything all right?
00:05:05Why don't you ask her?
00:05:07Daniel dumped her and now she's crashing his party.
00:05:11Well, Dr. Prescott was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.
00:05:17So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:21Exactly.
00:05:22Take a look around.
00:05:25These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:27This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:05:29CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:34And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:05:40I was running a charity.
00:05:42Oh, charity!
00:05:45Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:47Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:05:52Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:05:55To chase my son hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:06:00So she's a gold digger.
00:06:02How pathetic.
00:06:03Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:10Hear that? This is reality.
00:06:12My son, a PhD.
00:06:14Future partner.
00:06:15And you are just the mud on his shoes.
00:06:24Now, crawl back into your cave where you came from.
00:06:29Your fairy tale is over.
00:06:31Eleanor, a woman can be broke.
00:06:46Or uneducated, but delusional.
00:06:51Now, that's where I draw the line.
00:06:53No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:06:58Funny, Daniel.
00:06:59You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:07:01Believing in you.
00:07:03Seven years.
00:07:04Seven years of working and wearing you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:07:09And this is how it ends?
00:07:10Don't twist this.
00:07:13I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:15I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:18I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:20I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:07:23And the second you get upstairs, you drop me.
00:07:28I said I would pay you back.
00:07:29What more do you want?
00:07:31This isn't a transaction.
00:07:33That's not remorse, Daniel.
00:07:35That's cowardice wrapped up in a check.
00:07:40We're done.
00:07:47You ungrateful bitch!
00:07:54That's enough.
00:07:56I'm done with your tantrums.
00:08:01Get the fuck out of my life!
00:08:04Oh god.
00:08:06Look at her.
00:08:07So pathetic.
00:08:09Somebody give me a towel?
00:08:10Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:08:14Lady, that's enough.
00:08:16Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:08:18If you, you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:22Get out!
00:08:27We found Eleanor, sir.
00:08:28What?
00:08:28Where?
00:08:29She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:08:32But things are getting ugly.
00:08:34Dr. Prescott.
00:08:36Quick.
00:08:37Get to HQ now.
00:08:44You see that?
00:08:45Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:49Just leave, Eleanor, before this gets worse for you.
00:08:53Worse?
00:08:55What, because I dared to stand where I don't belong?
00:08:59You want to be a circus act?
00:09:01Fine.
00:09:02But don't expect me to save you when all this blows up in your face.
00:09:06Save me?
00:09:07That's rich.
00:09:08You don't have the right.
00:09:10You never did.
00:09:12Final warning.
00:09:14Walk out on your own.
00:09:15Or I'll security drag you out.
00:09:18Go ahead.
00:09:20Call the guards.
00:09:21But just know that I walked in here because I have every right to be here.
00:09:24And no one has the right to push me out.
00:09:27Not even Sebastian.
00:09:30Faster.
00:09:31I don't care what it takes.
00:09:32Get me to her now.
00:09:33Yes, sir.
00:09:37Eleanor, do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:43Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:09:46You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:09:50Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him, but you?
00:09:54You are so dumb.
00:09:56In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable, but in mine, he's just a man.
00:10:01If I were you, I'd be more worried that you laid a hand on me.
00:10:05Sebastian might not be okay with that.
00:10:08God, you must really have a death wish.
00:10:11Eleanor, forget it.
00:10:13You're upset about the breakup, but now you're spiraling.
00:10:19Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that.
00:10:21You know, I was actually going to offer you a job as a janitor here, but after this, I don't even think you're worth that.
00:10:30You were going to recommend me for a janitor position?
00:10:32Do you know how competitive it is to work here?
00:10:35Even our security guards have degrees, and you never finished yours.
00:10:41So that's what you think of me?
00:10:45That's reality.
00:10:46And after everything, trust me, Eleanor.
00:10:50Whitmore has no place for you.
00:10:53I don't need your recommendation.
00:10:57And as for whether Whitmore has a place for me or not, why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?
00:11:10Where is she?
00:11:15Where is she?
00:11:15Conference hall.
00:11:16It's tents.
00:11:17From what I heard, she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:11:21Dumped her.
00:11:22They broke up?
00:11:23Yeah.
00:11:23Well, I guess that saved me the trouble of stealing someone's fiancée.
00:11:29What's your goal here, Eleanor?
00:11:32Seriously, you're trying to crash and burn in public?
00:11:35I'll tell you what it is.
00:11:36She couldn't keep you, so she's trying to drag you down with her.
00:11:40Ew.
00:11:41Pathetic.
00:11:42Ex revenge?
00:11:45Don't worry, Daniel.
00:11:47I've got you.
00:11:51Remember, Margaret's father is vice chair.
00:11:54With their support, whatever stunt you're pulling, ends.
00:11:57Trust me.
00:11:58When Mr. Whitmore gets here, she'll have maybe five minutes left.
00:12:03I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.
00:12:07Honestly, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.
00:12:11Was it?
00:12:13Because when the truth comes out, you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:12:20I can't believe it.
00:12:21I can't believe it.
00:12:22Yes.
00:12:24Mr. Whitmore is arriving.
00:12:27Mr. Whitmore, he came straight from the airport.
00:12:29He's in the lobby.
00:12:31Wait.
00:12:31He actually came?
00:12:32Oh my god!
00:12:33He's here for Daniel!
00:12:34You hear that, everyone?
00:12:36Sebastian Whitmore is here!
00:12:38For my son!
00:12:40This is it.
00:12:44No one can touch us now.
00:12:48You hear that, sweetheart?
00:12:49Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:12:53Get out!
00:12:56While you still have legs to walk out on.
00:12:58This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:13:03Half a million dollars.
00:13:06Half a million?
00:13:07For her?
00:13:08It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.
00:13:14Take the money, Eleanor.
00:13:15Disappear.
00:13:16This is ten times more than you'll ever see in your life.
00:13:22Be smart.
00:13:27Take it and vanish.
00:13:33You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:13:41But when you realize the truth about who I really am...
00:13:52You'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.
00:14:02What the hell?
00:14:04You dare humiliate me?
00:14:07So you're someone now, huh?
00:14:10Someone who's gonna change things?
00:14:13Then go ahead.
00:14:15Make your little announcement.
00:14:17But if it's bullshit, you're gonna be crawling out of here kissing every single person's shoes.
00:14:24This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:28This low status nobody doesn't deserve to kiss anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:41She's my wife.
00:14:43Is that high status enough for you?
00:14:48Mr. Whitmore?
00:14:49I did this to you?
00:15:00It's fine.
00:15:03Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:15:09I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:15:13I meant what I said.
00:15:15Now let me take out the trash.
00:15:17And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:15:20Did you not hear me the first time?
00:15:22I'm her husband.
00:15:25This woman here?
00:15:27She's my wife.
00:15:29Wait, what?
00:15:30Mr. Whitmore married?
00:15:31But he's never, he's always kept his distance from women.
00:15:34Oh god, I'm dead.
00:15:37I'm so dead.
00:15:43Did you just say she's your wife?
00:15:45Eleanor, you shameless bitch.
00:15:47You strung Daniel along for years.
00:15:49For what?
00:15:50To sleep behind his back and marry someone else?
00:15:53So she was already married.
00:15:54She was never in it for you.
00:15:55She just wanted your money.
00:15:57Was this your plan all along, Eleanor?
00:16:00Playing me while you're sleeping with another man?
00:16:02Don't twist it.
00:16:04You know exactly who betrayed him.
00:16:06She's right.
00:16:07You don't even realize what you've thrown away.
00:16:10Eleanor's a brilliant woman.
00:16:12You were never even close to being worthy of her.
00:16:15So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker.
00:16:18He has a PhD.
00:16:20He has a 30 million dollar partner deal.
00:16:23You watch your mouth.
00:16:25Please.
00:16:26Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing and you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:16:31Let me guess, she hired you, right?
00:16:33Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband and save your pride, right?
00:16:38So would you say she hired an actor?
00:16:41Look at him.
00:16:42Designer suit, sexy look, total escort vibes.
00:16:46Exactly.
00:16:50She probably paid for the full fantasy package.
00:16:54Maybe he throws in a couple of extra services too.
00:16:58Oh god, that's Mr. Whitmore.
00:17:01She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:17:08Dr. Prescott.
00:17:09Oh, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:11He probably works at some private club in Soho.
00:17:14She hired him by the hour.
00:17:16Let's not kid ourselves.
00:17:17Okay, you're not seem to understand.
00:17:19Relax, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:22This cheap street whore doesn't belong at Whitmore.
00:17:28But since Eleanor brought him, we don't have to worry about it.
00:17:31Really, Eleanor?
00:17:33You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:17:36It just screams pathetic.
00:17:39Exactly.
00:17:40You pathetic social climber.
00:17:42Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.
00:17:45Wait, wait, wait, please stop, okay?
00:17:46Uncle Thomas, what?
00:17:47I've gotten into you.
00:17:49Why do I feel fussy?
00:17:51It's just a washed up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:17:56Don't worry about it.
00:17:56Look, I will handle it, okay?
00:17:59You want to keep up the fantasy?
00:18:02Good.
00:18:03But before the night ends, both of you will be finished.
00:18:08So you think this is pretend?
00:18:10It's still clinging to the drama.
00:18:19No offense, pretty boy, but if she can afford you, so can I.
00:18:24What's the rate?
00:18:26Whatever she's giving you, I'll give you 10 times the amount if you strip for the room.
00:18:32Oh god, no, no, they're dead.
00:18:38They are also dead.
00:18:40Say that again.
00:18:42You heard him.
00:18:4310 times your rate.
00:18:46Ooh, and let Uncle Thomas have a peek.
00:18:48I don't think he's seen a male stripper before.
00:18:50No, no, no, I want no part of this.
00:18:54Oh come on, don't be shy.
00:18:56Just enjoy the bachelor's show.
00:18:58You're going to give us a twirl, pretty boy.
00:19:04Daniel, Margaret, you have no idea the line you just crossed.
00:19:09Then stop faking.
00:19:11If you're going to play pretend, you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:19:16All right, cowboy.
00:19:19Final offer.
00:19:20Ten times.
00:19:24Name your price.
00:19:33You watch your mouth.
00:19:38How dare you heal my son?
00:19:40Baby, are you okay?
00:19:42I'm gonna kill that bastard.
00:19:44Are you insane?
00:19:45Do you have any idea who you just laid your hands on?
00:19:48I don't care who you are.
00:19:49You don't talk about me or my wife like that ever again.
00:19:53You two are dead.
00:19:54You let a cowboy punch a senior candidate,
00:19:58and then one will save you now.
00:20:00You just brought war on yourself.
00:20:02You have no idea who her father is.
00:20:06Is that supposed to scare us?
00:20:10Let her talk.
00:20:12I'm interested to see who she thinks I should be afraid of.
00:20:14My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:20:20Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:20:23And you two?
00:20:24You just rushed your future down towards it.
00:20:27Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:20:43That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:20:45Who do you think you are?
00:20:46No one else dares sit here.
00:20:49I think it kind of suits me.
00:20:52Thomas.
00:20:54You recognize the seat.
00:20:57Would you say I belong here?
00:20:59Yes sir, of course you do.
00:21:06Are you out of your mind?
00:21:08That seat belongs to Mr. Whitmore.
00:21:10No one sits there except for him or my father.
00:21:14And you actually dare to park your dumpy ass there?
00:21:18Funny.
00:21:19I'm sitting and I'm not moving.
00:21:21Got a problem?
00:21:22If you want to play big shot, fine.
00:21:28I'll give you one more chance.
00:21:30You can crawl out of that seat like a little dog and beg with Eleanor.
00:21:35Maybe I'll consider not ruining your life.
00:21:40Beg you?
00:21:42Yeah.
00:21:43Get on your knees, bark, and crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.
00:21:48That's the price you pay when you defy us.
00:21:51You hear that, Eleanor?
00:21:53You and your little boy can bark together.
00:21:57How romantic.
00:21:58You're playing with fire.
00:22:00No, sweetheart.
00:22:02I am the fire.
00:22:04Now I'll give you three seconds to kneel.
00:22:07Now.
00:22:09One.
00:22:15You...
00:22:16Stop! Margaret, please!
00:22:17Please, Margaret, don't!
00:22:19Get off of me!
00:22:21She hit me!
00:22:22You think I'm going to let that slide?
00:22:24Stand.
00:22:25I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:22:27I'm hitting that bitch.
00:22:29Margaret, you should apologize.
00:22:34What?
00:22:34You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:37It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:40Just think about it.
00:22:45Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:48You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:50Yes, but you are good.
00:22:53The only reason I call you uncle is because of my father.
00:22:56Now I get humiliated and you want me to apologize?
00:23:00Yes, I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:23:02You don't know what you've got to step into.
00:23:04I'm calling my father and we will see who crawls away when that happens.
00:23:12No, don't call him!
00:23:14Letter.
00:23:15I'd love to see what James West is going to do to me.
00:23:17Dad, I'm down on the meeting floor and some bitch just hit me.
00:23:25Can you get down here now, please?
00:23:30He's on his way.
00:23:32And when he gets here, you'll both be done.
00:23:36Oh, Eleanor.
00:23:39Mr. West, Margaret's father, second only to Sebastian in this company.
00:23:45He's coming now.
00:23:46This time, you're finished.
00:23:49Not even I can help you.
00:23:51Help them?
00:23:52Please.
00:23:52They did this to themselves.
00:23:54She and her boy toy need to be crushed.
00:23:57Best.
00:23:58Well, Daniel, you don't get to save me.
00:24:00In my world, you're nothing.
00:24:02Still bluffing?
00:24:04I can't wait to see how hard you cry when James West walks in the room.
00:24:13Who the hell is hitting my daughter in my building?
00:24:27Dad, thank God you're here.
00:24:30This was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.
00:24:33What the hell's going on?
00:24:35It's not my fault.
00:24:36This woman is causing a scene.
00:24:39Look, she even slapped me.
00:24:41That's insane.
00:24:42Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:24:46You tell them who I am?
00:24:47Of course I did.
00:24:48They didn't care.
00:24:50And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's seat.
00:24:55It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:24:57That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:25:00Okay, Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know that-
00:25:04Shut up, you fool!
00:25:06You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:25:10No, Mr. West, you understand.
00:25:11That man is Mr. Whitmore.
00:25:13You dare bring up Mr. Whitmore?
00:25:17Dr. Prescott was hired by him.
00:25:19And this, this is what you allow to happen when Mr. Whitmore is to return?
00:25:24No!
00:25:24I-
00:25:25You.
00:25:29You two.
00:25:32You are the ones that are stirring up all this trouble?
00:25:37That's right!
00:25:38Him!
00:25:39He is Eleanor's fake husband!
00:25:42And she is the one that's been causing all of the problems!
00:25:47Mr. West, my son Daniel, he used to date Eleanor, but that's been done for a long time now.
00:25:54He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:25:57Relax.
00:25:58Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.
00:26:01He won't be held responsible.
00:26:03Oh, thank you, Mr. West!
00:26:07Hear that?
00:26:08My dad is here.
00:26:10He runs this place right under Sebastian.
00:26:13You are so done.
00:26:15And what happened to all that attitude?
00:26:18Hiding behind a chair now that a real boss is in the room?
00:26:21You really have no idea what's coming.
00:26:24Have you completely lost it?
00:26:28You dragged some random escort in here to play husband.
00:26:31And now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair too scared to turn around.
00:26:37Hey!
00:26:38You!
00:26:40Get your ass out of that chair right now before this gets ugly.
00:26:46All right, that's enough.
00:26:47Someone go turn that damn chair around so I can see this clown's face!
00:26:51With pleasure.
00:26:55With pleasure.
00:26:56Daniel, I wouldn't touch that chair if I were you because when you do your little career crumbles.
00:27:03Is that supposed to scare me?
00:27:06No, it's just a fact.
00:27:09He's not someone you're with us.
00:27:11My father is the vice chair of Whitmore.
00:27:15No one outranks him except for Sebastian.
00:27:18And you actually think that we should be afraid of your little cowboy here?
00:27:22You think we're supposed to be scared of a guy you picked up in a nightclub?
00:27:26Please.
00:27:28These two are running this like some sort of drama box show.
00:27:31But everybody knows trash is trash.
00:27:36Maybe all those years of poverty fried your brain, Eleanor.
00:27:40You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford to offend.
00:27:45Really? And why is that?
00:27:47Because you're a nobody.
00:27:49Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.
00:27:53You all love to talk about who's finished.
00:27:56But once that chair turns around, you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:28:01You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?
00:28:03You have truly lost your fucking mind since our breakup.
00:28:07Well, this...
00:28:09I don't think I've ever had a kid tell me I was done for.
00:28:13You got guts.
00:28:14I'll give you that.
00:28:16My guts aren't going to help you if you piss me off.
00:28:18Now...
00:28:25Let me tell you what happens when your little husband
00:28:28tries to con his way into the Whitmore group.
00:28:34Oh, this is exciting.
00:28:35But do you think breaking their legs is enough?
00:28:38Maybe we should just drop them out of the country for good.
00:28:40Yes, that's what I plan to do.
00:28:44You.
00:28:45Turn that damn chair around right now, or I'm going to do it myself.
00:28:51No, Mr. West, please! You can't!
00:28:53Why the hell not?
00:28:56They deserve it.
00:28:58The only thing I can't understand is why everyone is acting so scared!
00:29:02You know, they actually told me to apologize.
00:29:04Apologize?
00:29:06To them?
00:29:08Well, since you're all so desperate to meet them...
00:29:15Sebastian?
00:29:17Mind saying hello?
00:29:18Suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:29:21That voice sounds so familiar.
00:29:24No, it can't be!
00:29:25Stop pretending! Turn that chair around!
00:29:45Is that supposed to scare me?
00:29:48I turned the chair, so now what?
00:29:51No.
00:29:53No way.
00:29:55You wanted to see me, James West?
00:29:59Mr. Whitmore!
00:30:01Dev, no need to call Mr. Whitmore.
00:30:04He'll be here any minute.
00:30:06And when he gets here, you two are dead.
00:30:09This is your last chance, Eleanor.
00:30:12Before Mr. Whitmore gets here, beg.
00:30:15You might just walk out of here.
00:30:17I won't beg anyone.
00:30:18But you?
00:30:20You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:30:25Don't waste your breath on them.
00:30:27If they want to burn, let them.
00:30:30You see that, Eleanor?
00:30:31The fantasy is dead.
00:30:34Now that my dad's here, he'll-
00:30:35He'll kill you both.
00:30:37So get out of that chair, call boy,
00:30:38before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:30:41Shut up.
00:30:49Dad, why are you shaking?
00:30:52Oh, I get it.
00:30:53You're gonna kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:30:56Perfect.
00:30:57Do it.
00:31:00You two are dead.
00:31:02You see my dad's hands?
00:31:03They're shaking.
00:31:05They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:31:07And the more they shake, the angrier he is.
00:31:11Consider, perhaps, he's not shaking from anger.
00:31:15Please.
00:31:16My father fears no one.
00:31:20And if they're trembling,
00:31:21it's because he's about to fire every last one of you.
00:31:27You still don't see where it sits, do you?
00:31:31Pathetic.
00:31:32You're still bragging even when you're about to be thrown out of here?
00:31:35Keep talking, Eleanor.
00:31:36You're digging your own grave.
00:31:38Dad, are you done digging yet?
00:31:40Dad, can we go ahead and deal with these nobodies?
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:46Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:31:51Boom!
00:31:53I'm dealing with you!
00:31:54Dad!
00:32:05You fool!
00:32:07Do you not know what you've done?
00:32:10Me?
00:32:11They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:32:15Shut it!
00:32:17And apologize to them right now!
00:32:20Apologize to them?
00:32:21Mr. West, they assaulted your daughter.
00:32:23Why would we apologize to them?
00:32:31You brainless idiot!
00:32:34Do you not know who that is?
00:32:36You can't do this!
00:32:38I just...
00:32:39I'm a PhD!
00:32:40I just made partner at Whitmore!
00:32:42Oh!
00:32:43A PhD?
00:32:45Who made partner?
00:32:46I had no idea!
00:32:48That changes zero!
00:32:55PhD!
00:33:03What are you doing?
00:33:04This is my son's celebration!
00:33:07There's no celebration!
00:33:09Not without that guy!
00:33:12Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:33:17What?
00:33:18Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:21I apologize for my idiot kid.
00:33:26Please, sir, forgive us.
00:33:28Mr. Whitmore, please forgive us!
00:33:34Mr. Whitmore, is my family Sebastian Whitmore?
00:33:42I don't know!
00:33:43Eleanor said she was married to that guy, that man, Sebastian.
00:33:49Ow!
00:33:50No, no, no, no!
00:33:52He's not Sebastian!
00:33:54That is just some gigolo that she hired!
00:33:57Dad, this is a trick, right?
00:33:59This is just some joke!
00:34:01You idiot!
00:34:02You have ruined the West's name!
00:34:07Now get our roomies and beg him for forgiveness!
00:34:11So that really is Sebastian?
00:34:18Mr. Whitmore, I am so sorry!
00:34:21Please forgive me!
00:34:22I didn't know who you were!
00:34:23Please don't ruin us!
00:34:26You're lucky I don't lay my hands on a woman.
00:34:29But this isn't over.
00:34:30Mr. Whitmore, James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:34:34Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is.
00:34:37Mr. Whitmore, no, sir, I am sorry.
00:34:41My daughter is young, she's stupid, and she does not represent me.
00:34:46Mr. Whitmore, you're right, she doesn't.
00:34:49But you do, and that's the problem.
00:34:52You're fired.
00:34:53Mr. Whitmore, no, please, sir, don't!
00:34:55So now I get it, Eleanor.
00:34:58That's why you had no fear.
00:35:00Because you had Whitmore beside you the whole time.
00:35:04You must really think you're an untouchable big shot now, huh?
00:35:07No, you've got it wrong.
00:35:12I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.
00:35:15I'm untouchable because I always was.
00:35:18Seven years, Daniel.
00:35:21And you never once asked who I was.
00:35:24You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving.
00:35:30Dr. Prescott, we fast-tracked you for talent.
00:35:33Yes, your academic record is impressive, but here at Whitmore, we hire for integrity.
00:35:38And you failed that test.
00:35:40Your offer is dead.
00:35:41What?
00:35:42Wait, Mr. Whitmore, please!
00:35:45My son has been working his entire life for this place!
00:35:48I'll throw him out!
00:35:49My decision is final.
00:35:50No amount of begging is going to change it.
00:35:52And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Prescott.
00:35:55I... I... I... I...
00:35:58Sebastian Whitmore!
00:36:06You have gone too far!
00:36:11Madam Whitmore!
00:36:17Grandma...
00:36:17Don't you dare call me that!
00:36:21The way you have defied this family!
00:36:25You've really outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.
00:36:30Grandma told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell, and what do you do?
00:36:33Huh?
00:36:34Ghost us?
00:36:35And then strut back in here and try to fire people?
00:36:38About the engagement, I'm...
00:36:40You forgot who runs this place.
00:36:42You might have the CEO title, but Grandma built the Whitmore Group from the ground up.
00:36:48And as far as Dr. Prescott and Mr. West, you don't have the authority to fire them.
00:36:52Oh, did you hear that, Daniel?
00:36:56We were getting fired!
00:36:58But who is that guy?
00:37:00Why is he talking back to Sebastian Whitmore?
00:37:02That's Winston, Sebastian's big brother.
00:37:06Word is, through families at war, Grandma prefers Winston.
00:37:10Don't overstep, Winston. I'm still the acting CEO. Staffing decisions are mine.
00:37:17If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:37:22Sebastian, James has given decades to this company, and his termination is not happening.
00:37:29Thank you, Madam Whitmore. I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:37:33And as for him, he stays.
00:37:41You do not have the authority to touch him.
00:37:44Grandma, he...
00:37:44Thunder Circle funds all of the top scholars of the world.
00:37:49And their chairwoman, Lady Thunder, arrives tomorrow.
00:37:53We must garner her favor.
00:37:57And Dr. Prescott, he is just the golden boy that she is looking for.
00:38:05So, he stays for Whitmore.
00:38:09You got that?
00:38:15Yes.
00:38:15Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:38:19Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:38:23That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:38:28Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia. I'm already...
00:38:32I have made my decision, and it will not change!
00:38:37No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.
00:38:41He helped me once.
00:38:42I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.
00:38:50Lady Thunder, Whitmore's proposal has been approved.
00:38:53We'll go public at tomorrow's gala.
00:38:54When are we our first official U.S. partner?
00:38:57Perfect. Make sure it's loud.
00:39:04I'm gonna give my husband a surprise.
00:39:11Sebastian, I know you're upset.
00:39:14But your marriage to Sylvia connects us to the Caldwell family and to the Thunder Circle.
00:39:21That is the future.
00:39:22You'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else?
00:39:27I believe in building things myself, not chasing shortcuts.
00:39:31Shortcuts?
00:39:33It's called strategy.
00:39:35If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?
00:39:42Then I disagree, madam.
00:39:45That's not strategy, that's fear.
00:39:47You can't force Sebastian to marry someone else.
00:39:49What the hell is she doing?
00:39:52Oh god, it's her again.
00:39:54Doesn't she ever get tired of humiliating herself?
00:39:57Who let the trash in?
00:39:59Someone needs to take her back out to the curb.
00:40:01Who is she?
00:40:02Madam Whitmore, this is Eleanor, my ex.
00:40:06She stalked me here and then latched onto Sebastian, pretending to be his wife just to oppose your
00:40:12engagement plans.
00:40:13Shut up, Daniel.
00:40:15One more word and I'll shatter your jaw.
00:40:17Do you see that?
00:40:18He's panicking.
00:40:20Madam?
00:40:22Those two are lying to your face.
00:40:25That girl Eleanor, she just latched onto Sebastian to get herself out of trouble.
00:40:30That's just part of their scheme.
00:40:32Sebastian is using this little act to get out of his engagement with Sylvia.
00:40:38Yes.
00:40:39Sebastian and I started out as pretenders, but we're not pretending anymore.
00:40:43And what are you playing at?
00:40:47Sebastian Whitmore?
00:40:57For real?
00:41:00Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
00:41:04Are you out of your mind? You're doubling down on this circus.
00:41:09It's hilarious that you actually think he is going to marry you.
00:41:15So you're trying to take advantage now. Even if Sebastian's in trouble, there's no way he'd stoop to
00:41:20marrying a lowlife like you.
00:41:22Sebastian, if you say yes to her now, you will lose everything.
00:41:28Do you even know what you're doing?
00:41:30Of course.
00:41:31You proposed to me, I'm just returning the favor.
00:41:34What's the matter, Sebastian? Are you scared?
00:41:36Eleanor, when I proposed to you, I had everything and you turned me down.
00:41:40And now that I'm suddenly in trouble, it's a yes?
00:41:43Exactly. I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune. I'm saying yes to you.
00:41:50Just as you are.
00:41:51Then, Eleanor, I say yes to you. I will marry you.
00:42:06There.
00:42:08There's my wife now. Anyone got a problem with that?
00:42:11Well done, Sebastian.
00:42:25So what? You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:42:32I see now my word means nothing to you anymore.
00:42:36So let me make this clear.
00:42:39I am suspending Sebastian from all duties as CEO of the Whitmore Group.
00:42:49Grandma, you can't be serious.
00:42:51I've already secured an investment from the Thunder Circle.
00:42:53Stop calling me that.
00:42:56The moment you proposed to that woman, you made your choice over the thing.
00:43:02And this is only the beginning.
00:43:04Tomorrow's gala will honor Lady Thunder.
00:43:06And the family received invite-only tickets from Sylvia, who you betrayed.
00:43:11And you will attend. And you will pacify, Sylvia.
00:43:15Because it's your last chance. And if you fail,
00:43:18you can go pack your things and move out of our thing.
00:43:32And I know you've been chasing investments behind our back.
00:43:36But Sylvia has promised me that unless you marry her, you won't see a single cent from the Thunder Circle.
00:43:43That's impossible.
00:43:44I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle. The deal's done.
00:43:47Confirmation?
00:43:48The talk is cheap. Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:43:57Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received the signed contract yet.
00:44:01See?
00:44:03How I can't wait to see you fall, little brother.
00:44:06And you, girl, think you can just come in here and steal Sylvia's fiance?
00:44:13You have no idea the hell you've raised.
00:44:19And Dr. Prescott, you'll be joining us tomorrow for the gala.
00:44:23Did you hear that, Daniel? You're invited to a gala that only invites a billionaire.
00:44:29That's right. Your recommendation comes directly from the Thunder Circle.
00:44:33What? Comes from where?
00:44:37Is that true? The Thunder Circle wrote my son a letter?
00:44:42According to Sylvia, Lady Thunder has a soft spot for Polish scholars.
00:44:46Tomorrow's your chance.
00:44:48You play your cards right. She might take a liking to you.
00:44:52Thank you, Mr. Whitmore. I will go.
00:44:55Good. Then it's settled.
00:44:58The Thunder Circle gave their word. They wouldn't back out.
00:45:06Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:45:08Yes, sir.
00:45:10Hey. Relax. I said they'd invest in you in Slowbo.
00:45:16Really? A back room's nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:45:22We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.
00:45:29And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:45:33You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:45:37You are not invited, but we are.
00:45:41You'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:45:42Tomorrow? You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband. Be lucky if you're still breathing by tomorrow.
00:45:50And if you have even a shred of sense left, you'll get on a plane tonight.
00:45:54Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:46:00So I'm the gold digger now?
00:46:02Of course! You're cleaning to Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:46:06But not even he can support you now.
00:46:08Forget it, Mom. Talking to her is a waste of time.
00:46:12If I do end up impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow, maybe I'll toss you a favor.
00:46:17I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle, you still feel this high.
00:46:35Hey, don't listen to them. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:46:44Relax, Mr. Whitmore. I got this.
00:46:48Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:46:51Yes, ma'am. I get it. You're the dangerous one.
00:46:56But the Thunder Circle, the Caldwell family, they're a lot to handle.
00:47:00So what?
00:47:02So, tomorrow I'll sign the deal. I'll secure everything.
00:47:05Because keeping you safe is my job now.
00:47:07Wow, what a hero.
00:47:10Now what happened to that cocky CEO who was begging me to marry him on the plane?
00:47:16Oh, come on. That was so embarrassing.
00:47:18That guy on the plane, he's dead now. He no longer exists, all right?
00:47:23So, my wife, shall we move to the next step?
00:47:26Yeah. Let's get married.
00:47:44Baby Thunder.
00:47:50How are the preparations for tomorrow's gala?
00:47:53Everything is ready. The media is locked and the billion dollar contract for Whitmore has been firewashed.
00:48:00Just remember, this isn't for the Whitmore family. This is for Sebastian.
00:48:04So, make sure all the funds fall into his hands only.
00:48:08Understood.
00:48:09Also, two of our allies are requesting a move.
00:48:13One is Prince Amir of the Diamond Magnate and the other is General Varelli.
00:48:17They're outside. Should I let them in?
00:48:19Turn them in.
00:48:22Okay.
00:48:25Lady Thunder.
00:48:27Lady Thunder.
00:48:29Please.
00:48:33So, how have you been? Your business is good?
00:48:37Yes, Lady Thunder. And thank you. Your support doing my toughest year meant everything.
00:48:44My weapons empire now spans five continents.
00:48:47Impressive. And you, Amir?
00:48:52As usual, I'm doing well. Without your backing, I wouldn't be where I am, leaving my country with stability.
00:48:59It's good to hear. So, can I expect both of you at the gala tomorrow?
00:49:02Of course. Whatever you want, Lady Thunder. Just say the word. I will back you, no matter what.
00:49:10I'm afraid I can't attend. Things have grown tense between the Cold West and me.
00:49:20What happened?
00:49:21Well, in the past few years, they've been expanding aggressively, crushing competitors left and right.
00:49:29I thought they were acting with your approval, so I didn't intervene.
00:49:35No, I never authorized any of that.
00:49:41Seems I underestimated how far they'd go.
00:49:44This ends now. They will answer for everything that they've done.
00:49:48Well then, tomorrow should be... entertaining.
00:50:01Let's shake the world together.
00:50:03Cheers.
00:50:04Sebastian?
00:50:21Sebastian?
00:50:23Hey. Just checked me in. I wanted to see if you're free tomorrow.
00:50:27What's going on?
00:50:28Well, the gala's tomorrow and I had a few dresses made for you.
00:50:32A few? You make it sound like you're hosting a fashion week for me.
00:50:38Well, as your husband, it's my job to make sure you're the most stunning woman in the room.
00:50:42Is that so? Or is it so you can make your enemies jealous?
00:50:47Who says I can't do both?
00:50:50I gotta go. Talk tomorrow.
00:50:55Mr. Whitmore.
00:50:57Lady Thunder is currently in a closed meeting. She won't be seeing anyone today.
00:51:01Uh, Mr. Lee, I just need to confirm about the investments.
00:51:05Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:06Lady Thunder has a high level of belief in you. You'll get your answer at the gala.
00:51:11Thank you, Mr. Lee.
00:51:21Let's go.
00:51:37Hello.
00:51:40Hmm, tonight is the gala. Luckily, Sylvia introduced us to her brother Ravine. He owns
00:52:07the most exclusive boutique in the city. Even celebrities come here and still
00:52:13leave empty-handed. Unbelievable. Mr. Cogwell, you really shouldn't have. Every piece in here
00:52:21costs at least six figures. Well, it is worth every penny if it gains Lady Thunder's attention.
00:52:30Pick out anything you want in the store. Thank you. And your sister, too.
00:52:36Dr. Prescott, you will be representing both the Whitmore and Caldwell families at the gala.
00:52:43Do help us gain Lady Thunder's favor. Absolutely. That's my boy. PhD perfect. And maybe about to
00:52:54become Lady Thunder's future partner. My boy, let's be honest. Next to Lady Thunder,
00:53:01that girl Eleanor, even Margaret. They're nothing. If she notices you, and you end up marrying her,
00:53:09you'd rule.
00:53:11You have got to be kidding me.
00:53:16Well, well. Look who thinks she's someone now. You've got some nerve showing your face around here.
00:53:31Watch your mouth. My wife can go wherever the hell she pleases.
00:53:34Sebastian brought you to play dress-up. Adorable.
00:53:43Too bad this dress costs more than you may hear.
00:53:45Who is she, Sebastian? I thought you were still with my sister.
00:53:50And you are? You seriously don't know? This is Sylvia Caldwell's brother?
00:53:58How shameless. First, you stole Sylvia Caldwell's fiancé and now you're shopping like you belong here?
00:54:05Wait, so what?
00:54:06Poor Avian, you didn't know. This gold digger cons Sebastian to marrying her. She's pretending to be Mrs. Whitmore.
00:54:17What? Married? Sebastian, you threw away my sister for this cheap whore?
00:54:24Watch your mouth. Whatever arrangement I had with Sylvia is over and I'll deal with her.
00:54:28But you never get to insult my wife.
00:54:31Your wife? In my store? I have every right to throw you both out. Her first.
00:54:39Oh yeah? Let me make it easy for you. We'll take everything. Every dress, every necklace, every damn shoe in this place.
00:54:46By the end of this day, the store will be mine.
00:54:48Wow, Eleanor. What did it take? Two days to hook him? Seriously, Sebastian, you're giving up Sylvia. For her? What's the appeal?
00:55:05I mean, maybe it's a little bit better in bed now.
00:55:11Oh, but no more. You don't get to speak about my wife ever.
00:55:15Mr. Whitmore, you're not even CEO anymore.
00:55:19Just because I'm not sitting in the chair doesn't mean I'm powerless.
00:55:23Please, my son has a PhD. One day, he's going to surpass you.
00:55:29Surpass me?
00:55:31Yes, my son Daniel. He is about to marry the most powerful woman alive. Lady Thunder herself.
00:55:40What? I'm sorry, what?
00:55:44So, you regret it now? You left my son and now he's going to marry the woman that could crush you both.
00:55:51Actually, you're not entirely wrong. Daniel, your mother thinks you'll marry the Lady Thunder.
00:55:57Maybe that was possible. Once, but not anymore.
00:56:01And who the hell are you to say that?
00:56:03Because I'm Lady Thunder.
00:56:09Chairwoman of the Thunder Circle.
00:56:11And you, I mean, you've lost the right to even dream of standing by my side.
00:56:17You, Lady Thunder. Okay, can someone give the girl an Oscar?
00:56:28Everyone hear this? This lunatic thinks she runs the Thunder Circle and decides my son's future.
00:56:34I don't know, Lady Thunder's no thing we could throw around like that. We can't.
00:56:37You bitch. You break into my store spouting delusions.
00:56:44I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
00:56:55Adam, I'd like you to buy up every Caldwell Boutique worldwide. I want the brand under my name.
00:57:01What? Do you even know how much it costs to buy my store?
00:57:06Eleanor, I get it. The breakup scrambled your brain but pretending to be Lady Thunder?
00:57:14You're gonna get poor Sebastian killed.
00:57:17So Daniel, in your world, a woman like me could never be her?
00:57:21Even if you clod your way up by some miracle, you'd still be nothing.
00:57:28Sucking them dry. That's all you're good for.
00:57:32Enough of the circus.
00:57:34Can we call security and drag them out of here before she brings all of us down?
00:57:39If anyone touches her, I'll ruin you.
00:57:43Do you realize what you're doing? You are crossing a line.
00:57:49Seriously, Sebastian. You side with her, you're both done. The Thunder Circle will eat you alive.
00:57:56Oh, okay. Sylvia.
00:58:04Yes, I'm handling it.
00:58:07What? They bought it.
00:58:11The Thunder Circle has acquired all Caldwell Boutiques.
00:58:15What? That's impossible.
00:58:17And Eleanor is the new owner?
00:58:26No, no. This is some mistake.
00:58:29There is no way that street rat owns this place. It's a scam, a trick.
00:58:35Well, Vivian, looks like I own the shop now.
00:58:37You're no longer welcome here, so leave before I have the guards escort you out.
00:58:43What? You bitch. You can't do this. You have any idea.
00:58:49Say one more word and I'll have your name erased from the fashion world like chalk in the rain.
00:58:54Do you want to try me?
00:58:58No.
00:58:59Guards, remove them.
00:59:07Daniel, could she really be Lady Thunder?
00:59:14Absolutely not. I've known her for years. There's no way she could run the Thunder Circle.
00:59:20Then how the fuck did she buy my sword?
00:59:22You still don't get it? That nanny work she did in Africa, that's where she met Lady Thunder,
00:59:29who just so happens to also run a charity there.
00:59:33So you're saying she used Lady Thunder's sympathy to get this?
00:59:37Exactly. She's nothing but a side piece with great timing.
00:59:43But tonight, I'll expose her. Tonight, her little luck ends.
00:59:52Eleanor, you're not seriously telling me the real Lady Thunder.
00:59:59I can't tell Sebastian everything. Not yet. Not until the gala.
01:00:04Yeah. Back when I was working in Africa, I met her.
01:00:07You met Lady Thunder?
01:00:09Yes.
01:00:10She visited one of the shelters. We spoke, so I reached out to her just now and asked for help.
01:00:19Why didn't you tell me you knew her before?
01:00:21Look, I'm sorry.
01:00:22This is great. I mean, if Lady Thunder's on your side, there is no way Sylvia's gonna lay a hand on you tonight.
01:00:29Sounds like you really don't want to see me get hurt.
01:00:34Of course not. You're my wife.
01:00:38And you stood behind me when everything fell apart.
01:00:43Tonight, I'm gonna do everything it takes to protect you. It's my only job now.
01:00:47That's the first time a man's ever said that to me.
01:01:01But tonight, after the gala, it's official. Public group. That doesn't scare you?
01:01:09I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:01:26Winston, congratulations.
01:01:28Everyone knows your grandmother suspended Sebastian from his position,
01:01:31and that makes you next in line for CEO.
01:01:35Well, let's be honest. Sebastian has never been CEO material.
01:01:41My grandmother saw that.
01:01:42And so did the board.
01:01:44You've got the support of the Caldwell family, and their ties to the circle aren't small.
01:01:49And tonight, Lady Thunder will be announcing who's next in line for the billion dollar investment.
01:01:55And you, Whitmore's golden boy, look like you've got it locked.
01:01:58You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:18You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:21This is the Thunder Circle Return Galley.
01:02:23As a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:02:25Well, you should be at Sylvia's Suite, not parading around here like you still belong at the top.
01:02:31And you, since when did gutter trash just show up?
01:02:36Eleanor's my wife. You don't get to speak to her that way.
01:02:39Your wife? Did you just sing that out loud?
01:02:43Everyone, gather round. I have a little joke to tell you.
01:02:47Now this man, my brother, used to be the acting CEO of the Whitmore Group.
01:02:55Well, he could have married Sylvia and joined the powerful Caldwell family.
01:02:59But instead, he married her, a gold digger.
01:03:05Now, isn't that hilarious?
01:03:07It's true. Sebastian used to be a force.
01:03:11And now, he's just another doughy boy who got tricked by the wiles of a cheap hole.
01:03:17He offended the Caldwell family. He's dead now.
01:03:20You hear that, Sebastian? Doesn't that make you feel pathetic?
01:03:25You shut your mouth or I'll break that smug little jaw of yours.
01:03:33But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:03:38And you, this poor excuse for life. I'll deal with you first.
01:03:44I'd like to see what kind of idiot thinks they can deal with me here.
01:03:48Don't you run your mouth!
01:03:55You bitch!
01:04:02You come to me, Winston. You bastard. I'm your brother!
01:04:07You're gonna let this bitch humiliate me in front of everyone, huh?
01:04:11Sebastian, let him go.
01:04:15I'm curious to see how far he'll take this.
01:04:17Isn't she just a nobody? Where does she get the guts?
01:04:20Because she's riding Sebastian's coattails. Once he's gone, she's out.
01:04:25You just humiliated your entire family in front of everyone.
01:04:30You chose a bitch over blood. That's fine.
01:04:35As far as I'm concerned, you are exiled from the Whitmore family.
01:04:38You don't have the authority to exile me from Whitmore.
01:04:41He does not, but I do!
01:04:54Grandma.
01:04:55Sebastian.
01:04:59I'm going to ask you this for the last time. Are you going to marry Sylvia?
01:05:05No, grandmother. I never loved her.
01:05:08I didn't ask you if you loved her. I asked, will you marry her?
01:05:14No. I won't divorce Eleanor.
01:05:17You're going to risk the future of our family for this useless woman?
01:05:23You might be my grandmother, but you don't get to insult my wife.
01:05:27You really think marrying into the Caldwell family is going to elevate us?
01:05:30Of course I do. And what are you trying to say?
01:05:35The Caldwells say merge, but you and I both really know what they want.
01:05:38They want our assets, our name, and when they're done sucking us dry,
01:05:42Wilma will be nothing. We can't trust them. And we can't trust Sylvia.
01:05:51No wonder Sebastian's a CEO. Sharp instincts.
01:05:54Looks like I picked the right man.
01:05:56Grandma, don't listen to him. Sylvia promised. And if Sebastian agrees,
01:06:02the Caldwells will take us deep into the inner core of the Thunder Circle.
01:06:06You're sure?
01:06:07Absolutely. That's what this whole night is for. And Sylvia's already on her way.
01:06:11Me. Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this gay law.
01:06:16If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:06:21You're right. We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now.
01:06:26Do you hear that? Do you see what we have at stake?
01:06:30What are you laughing at?
01:06:33All of this. You're ready to sell Sebastian off for a shot at winning Sylvia's attention.
01:06:40And you call that a strategy? You're sniffing up the wrong trail.
01:06:45What do you mean?
01:06:46What I mean is, if you're looking for investment from the Thunder Circle, you don't need the Caldwells.
01:06:53You need me.
01:06:53What are you saying?
01:06:58Don't be ridiculous. Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:02It's out of her mind. The Thunder Circle is untouchable. How does someone like her say something like that?
01:07:09You're all looking down on me because you don't know who I really am. But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:07:16Prove it. But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:07:20This isn't about her lies. She's going to bring down the entire Whitmore family legacy.
01:07:33Mrs. Whitmore, you may not know this, but yesterday, Sebastian and Eleanor aggressively acquired every Ravine Caldwell boutique.
01:07:40Sebastian, is this true?
01:07:44The boutiques were taken over by Lady Thunder. Eleanor just asked for help.
01:07:49How did she know?
01:07:50Because they played the charity card. Years in Africa, nannying kids, all of it was to gain the Lady Thunder's favor.
01:08:00Exactly. No wonder she seduced Sebastian, turned him against his own family.
01:08:05She has made a career out of culling into powerful people. She's dangerous.
01:08:11She's a conniving parasite. You have offended the heir of the Caldwell family, and now you're trying to drag us down with you?
01:08:21You ruined the alliance, and now you show up here and crash the Thunder Circle Gala.
01:08:28We should make her crawl and beg for forgiveness.
01:08:32The ones who've been trying to crush you are the Caldwells. They should beg for forgiveness.
01:08:37You arrogant lunatic! Who are you to talk shit about the Caldwells?
01:08:43I'm just stating the facts.
01:08:45She's amazing.
01:08:46Facts, huh?
01:08:55That's Sylvia Caldwell. Things are about to get ugly.
01:08:57Eleanor's finished. Once you cross the Caldwells, you're out.
01:09:01Is that the famous Caldwell heiress? My son, you could do worse than marrying her.
01:09:09Mother!
01:09:09All right, all right. You were made for Lady Thunder. That's the one you deserve.
01:09:15Sylvia.
01:09:17Thank God you're here.
01:09:18Seriously, Winston?
01:09:20One girl, when you crumble?
01:09:22You're pathetic. Move!
01:09:29So, first you steal, then you get our stores and fire my brother.
01:09:37Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:09:40Why do I have to choose either?
01:09:42Are you that rattled?
01:09:45Good. Let's see how brave you are.
01:09:48Sylvia, don't.
01:09:53Sebastian, you're my fiancé and you're defending her?
01:09:56I never agreed to marry you.
01:09:58I came here tonight to talk, to build something better.
01:10:01Better?
01:10:03You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:10:10Fine. You want something better?
01:10:12Neil, both of you, and beg me for it.
01:10:23Enough! I've only gotten started.
01:10:26By the time tonight's gala ends, Whitmore won't even exist.
01:10:30Miss Caldwell, you can't do this.
01:10:33You promised to back our rise into the thundership home.
01:10:36You promised Sebastian would marry me.
01:10:39Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:10:41Do you hear that?
01:10:42Neil! Marry her!
01:10:44Don't drag this family down with you!
01:10:46You're trying to doom us all, you ungrateful bastard!
01:10:50What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:10:53Too proud to kneel?
01:10:55Looks like...
01:10:56You're the one who should be mourning me.
01:11:09Oh my god!
01:11:10She's insane! She's totally insane!
01:11:15Sylvia, are you hurt?
01:11:19Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:21You bitch!
01:11:28No one humiliates me like this!
01:11:30Oh, well there's a first sign for everything.
01:11:32I'm sure that you will get used to it.
01:11:35Kill her!
01:11:40This woman desecrated the Thunder Circle Gala.
01:11:43It's not only an insult to me, it's treason against Lady Thunder herself.
01:11:48She will be eliminated.
01:11:51And anyone who stands with her becomes my enemy.
01:11:56This is it. If I stand with Sylvia now, I'll win her and Lady Thunder's favor.
01:12:01Sylvia's right!
01:12:03Eleanor defied Lady Thunder.
01:12:06She deserves to be punished.
01:12:07I second that. She's a disgrace.
01:12:10She defies everything we stand for.
01:12:13We must punish her.
01:12:14Punish her!
01:12:25No, you got it all wrong!
01:12:26Everyone saw what she did.
01:12:28You're really gonna defend her?
01:12:29Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:12:31Game over.
01:12:34You breathe because I allow it.
01:12:36When I say you're finished...
01:12:38Don't you dare.
01:12:38If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:12:41Shut up, Sebastian. Everyone here wants her gone.
01:12:45You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her.
01:12:48You want to ruin yourself? Fine.
01:12:50But don't drag the Whitmores down with you.
01:12:52This is what happens when you defy the Caldwells.
01:12:56So, Eleanor, how do you want to die?
01:12:58Impressive, Sylvia.
01:12:59You twisted the truth so quickly.
01:13:02But you picked the wrong opponent.
01:13:04All of you?
01:13:05You're just insects in my eyes.
01:13:07Still mouthing off?
01:13:09I'll send you straight to hell.
01:13:16And who exactly are you planning on sending to hell?
01:13:18General Varelli and Prince Amir?
01:13:26What are they doing here?
01:13:27This is the Thunder Circle's return gala.
01:13:29Big names were expected.
01:13:32Too bad for her.
01:13:33She's even more screwed now.
01:13:36What are you doing here, Varelli?
01:13:38We were just about to take out the trash.
01:13:41So, unless you plan on interfering with Thunder Circle justice,
01:13:45I suggest you let us finish.
01:13:47Shhh.
01:13:47Sylvia Cowboy.
01:13:49Who excited me were you planning to kill?
01:13:53Her.
01:13:54She attacked me in public.
01:13:57She disrupted the gala.
01:14:00Look, I know we've had our differences.
01:14:02Well, don't tell me you're here to steal my credit to impress Lady Thunder.
01:14:06Steal credit?
01:14:09You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:14:11One more word out of you.
01:14:13And the Caldwell name is history.
01:14:15You're serious?
01:14:18You touch her again and your entire empire burns to the ground.
01:14:22Because the woman you just threatened is Lady Thunder herself.
01:14:27Lady Thunder!
01:14:28Lady Thunder, don't be ridiculous.
01:14:40She's just a gold digger, for God's sake.
01:14:41Exactly!
01:14:42She's a broke hooker.
01:14:45This is just another bluff.
01:14:47She's pulling the same stunts.
01:14:49Okay?
01:14:50She already used Lady Thunder to crush the Caldwell stores.
01:14:54And now she's doing the same thing, sabotaging our alliance.
01:14:57She's a fraud!
01:14:59You all must be delusional.
01:15:01Fine!
01:15:02If you want to stand with a liar, you're all as good as dead.
01:15:06Now I understand just how bold your entire family has become.
01:15:09Do you really think that Morelli, Amir, and the entire Thunder Circle couldn't erase your family over them?
01:15:16The real Lady Thunder could.
01:15:19But tonight, she's gonna destroy you and all your fake pretenders.
01:15:23Weapons up!
01:15:32Lay a finger on her and I promise you, none of you will be alive to regret this.
01:15:37You won't want to defend it, liar!
01:15:41Stand down!
01:15:46Stand down!
01:15:48That's Adam Lee, Lady Thunder's right hand.
01:15:51He only arrives when she commands it.
01:15:53What is happening?
01:15:56Mr. Lee, finally.
01:15:59Your Lady Thunder's assistant, tell them this woman is lying.
01:16:03Tell them she's not Lady Thunder!
01:16:05Right!
01:16:06She's just my ex.
01:16:07How could she be anything?
01:16:09Lady Thunder manages portfolios worth billions.
01:16:12She babysits Orphan.
01:16:15Shut up!
01:16:17For years, Lady Thunder's been running the largest charity in Africa.
01:16:21While you were polishing your shoes, she was saving children.
01:16:25That can't be!
01:16:28No, no, no.
01:16:31If that's true, then let her prove it.
01:16:35Lady Thunder is to confirm this circle's billion dollar investment.
01:16:39And the system's only locked with one thing.
01:16:42Her fingerprints.
01:16:45If she is who she says she is, let her unlock it.
01:16:49Yeah, let her prove it!
01:16:51She can't!
01:16:52It's all just empty words!
01:16:53Go ahead, Eleanor.
01:16:56Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:16:59Unlock the funds.
01:17:00Right here!
01:17:01Right now!
01:17:04Eleanor.
01:17:07Are you sure you can confirm this?
01:17:08No thanks.
01:17:09Sebastian.
01:17:11It's time for them to see the truth.
01:17:29Highest level authorization.
01:17:34Verified, Eleanor Thunder.
01:17:36Type, CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:39One hundred billion funds activated.
01:17:42My God!
01:17:48My God!
01:17:50She is Lady Thunder!
01:17:52CEO of the Thunder Circle!
01:17:54She's investing a hundred billion dollars into Sebastian?
01:17:57What?
01:17:58No, this isn't happening.
01:17:59Now you all know who I really am.
01:18:02She really opened it!
01:18:04Eleanor is Lady Thunder!
01:18:08Lady Thunder!
01:18:10Lady Thunder!
01:18:13What now, Sylvia?
01:18:14What else do you have to say?
01:18:24Sylvia!
01:18:31Sylvia!
01:18:33This is her.
01:18:35Call mom.
01:18:36Leave her start.
01:18:38My father will kill me.
01:18:40Take them out.
01:18:41We'll deal with them later.
01:18:55So Eleanor, it's true.
01:18:59You're the Lady Thunder.
01:19:04CEO of the Thunder Group and the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:11Does this even matter anymore?
01:19:14Of course it matters.
01:19:16I would have never broken up with you if I had known things could have been different.
01:19:20Could they have been, Daniel?
01:19:26If I had told you that I was Lady Thunder, would you have believed me?
01:19:29That I was the one who funded you?
01:19:31That I was the one who recommended you for Whitmore Group?
01:19:35We were together for seven years and you never believed in me.
01:19:40No, that's, that's, that's not true.
01:19:45All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top.
01:19:50I didn't mean anything to you.
01:19:55I, this, this, this, I, I, I don't...
01:19:57You made your choice, Daniel.
01:19:59So every benefit that I gave you, every contact, every dollar, I'm taking it all back.
01:20:10Eleanor, please. We've known each other for years.
01:20:15You've always been like a daughter to me.
01:20:18Whatever misunderstandings are between us, we can fix.
01:20:22A daughter?
01:20:24Weren't you the person that called me a useless girl?
01:20:27Not good enough for your son?
01:20:29It was before. I didn't know.
01:20:31I was stupid and blind. You, you're perfect, Eleanor.
01:20:38So now that I'm Lady Thunder, I'm good enough for your son.
01:20:43You know, ever since I got back from Africa, this has been done.
01:20:48You and Daniel, you're not part of my life anymore.
01:20:53No, please, no.
01:20:55We were together for so long, Eleanor. Please, please forgive me.
01:21:01You're the fast track to power.
01:21:04Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the fall.
01:21:17Eleanor.
01:21:20Lady Thunder, you and my grandson make a perfect pair, so congratulations.
01:21:28Yes. Congratulations to you both.
01:21:33You were Sebastian. That's interesting. Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:21:42No, that was a mistake. He's always part of my family. He will always be my grandson.
01:21:50I did warn you all. I told you that you would regret casting him aside.
01:21:57Grandma, I've decided I'm stepping away from the Wittenwolves.
01:22:03It's time I've made something that's truly mine and not in the family's shadow.
01:22:08But Sebastian, you...
01:22:13I think you should be grateful that he's still calling you grandfather.
01:22:18Don't push your luck, madam.
01:22:23You're right.
01:22:24I think I will accept whatever choice you make and respect you.
01:22:42Eleanor, as you can see, I'm no longer just a Whitmore, a man starting over.
01:22:54But if you'll have me, I'd like to start it with you.
01:23:01Will you stay by my side and marry me?
01:23:06Of course I will.
01:23:09And this time as your wife, investor, and co-founder.
01:23:13I love you.
01:23:15I love you, darling.
01:23:16But it's just me.
01:23:18I can't do this, you see.
01:23:21I'm sorry I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:25And the world is on your shoulder.
