00:00:00I'm sorry.
00:00:01What?
00:00:02Are you sure?
00:00:05Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe me.
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.
00:00:19You know, the ghost chair woman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:00:21This is her first formal return back to the States,
00:00:24and we're her first target.
00:00:27We 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.
00:00:40Parker.
00:00:41Find her.
00:00:42Find who?
00:00:43The girl from the Nairobi flight.
00:00:45Eleanor.
00:00:46I don't care what it takes.
00:00:47You find her.
00:00:49Understood.
00:00:49But what do you want with it?
00:00:53I'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.
00:01:09You self-important bitch.
00:01:11Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:13I 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.
00:01:21Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off, and then we're done.
00:01:24Is that what you think?
00:01:27That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:31How about a hundred grand?
00:01:36Two hundred?
00:01:38Daniel.
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
00:02:05Daniel's education?
00:02:06Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:11What?
00:02:12How dare you?
00:02:13Eleanor.
00:02:14For the sake of our seven years together, just take the money and leave.
00:02:21Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:25He's done with you.
00:02:28Get 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.
00:02:37Said she had to handle something first, but she'll be here soon.
00:02:40Margaret?
00:02:42Margaret.
00:02:44Daughter 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.
00:02:57Properly pedigree.
00:02:59And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:03Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:03:07You should leave.
00:03:09Trust me.
00:03:10You don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:03:12Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:18So 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.
00:03:27Really?
00:03:28Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:03:33You?
00:03:34Please.
00:03:35Please.
00:03:36So.
00:03:42You actually think you're better than me.
00:03:54Margaret, my dear.
00:03:55You're here.
00:03:56So.
00:03:57You must be Eleanor.
00:03:58Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:03:59I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:04:03Bargain bin dress.
00:04:04Basic face.
00:04:05Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:09But don't mind her.
00:04:10She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:11She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:12So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:13I'm Margaret West.
00:04:14Daughter of James West.
00:04:15Vice Chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:16And you!
00:04:17You're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:18You're right.
00:04:19Unlike you, I don't need to cling to daddy's title to matter.
00:04:20Excuse me?
00:04:21You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:22Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:04:23Exactly.
00:04:24This is a ceremony for me.
00:04:25I'm Margaret West.
00:04:26I'm Margaret West.
00:04:27Daughter of James West.
00:04:28Vice Chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:30And you!
00:04:31You're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:35You're right.
00:04:36Unlike 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.
00:04:51Exactly.
00:04:52This is a ceremony for elites, not fed group.
00:04:55What the hell is going on?
00:05:01Oh, Margaret.
00:05:03Is everything alright?
00:05:04Why don't you ask her?
00:05:06Daniel dumped her.
00:05:08And now she's crashing his party.
00:05:11Well, Dr. Prescott was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.
00:05:16So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:20Exactly.
00:05:21Take a look around.
00:05:24These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:26This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:05:28CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:33And 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!
00:05:43Charity!
00:05:44Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:47Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:05:51Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:05:55To chase my son hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:05:59So she's a gold digger.
00:06:01How pathetic.
00:06:02Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:06Hear that?
00:06:07This is reality.
00:06:08My son, a PhD.
00:06:09Future partner.
00:06:10And you are just the mud on his shoes.
00:06:13Now, crawl back into your cave where you came from.
00:06:28Your fairy tale is over.
00:06:41Eleanor, a woman can be broke.
00:06:46Or uneducated, but delusional.
00:06:50Now that's where I draw the line.
00:06:53No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:06:57Funny, 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.
00:07:12I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:15I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:17I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:20I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:07:22And the second you get upstairs, you drop me.
00:07:27I 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.
00:07:41You ungrateful bitch!
00:07:42That's enough.
00:07:43I'm done with your tantrums.
00:07:45Get the fuck out of my life.
00:07:46Oh God.
00:07:47Look at her.
00:07:48So pathetic.
00:07:49Somebody give me a towel?
00:07:50Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:07:51Lady, that's enough.
00:07:52Lady, that's enough.
00:07:53Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:07:54You?
00:07:55You're humiliated.
00:07:56You're humiliated yourself.
00:07:57Get out.
00:07:58I'm done with your tantrums.
00:07:59I'm done with your tantrums.
00:08:01Get the fuck out of my life.
00:08:03Oh God.
00:08:04Look at her.
00:08:05So pathetic.
00:08:06Somebody give me a towel?
00:08:07Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:08:09Lady, that's enough.
00:08:10Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:08:11You?
00:08:12You're humiliating yourself.
00:08:13Get out.
00:08:14We found Eleanor, sir.
00:08:15Where?
00:08:16She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:08:19But things are getting ugly.
00:08:20Dr. Prescott.
00:08:21Quick.
00:08:22Get to HQ now.
00:08:44You see that?
00:08:45Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:49Just leave, Eleanor.
00:08:51Before this gets worse for you.
00:08:53Worse?
00:08:54What?
00:08:55Because 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.
00:09:13Walk out on your own.
00:09:15Or I'll security drag you out.
00:09:18Go ahead.
00:09:19Call 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.
00:09:26Not even Sebastian.
00:09:30Baster, I don't care what it takes.
00:09:31Get me to her now.
00:09:32Yes, sir.
00:09:37Eleanor, do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:42Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:09:45You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:09:48Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him.
00:09:51But you?
00:09:52You are so dead.
00:09:55In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable, but in mine, he's just a man.
00:09:59If 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.
00:10:10Eleanor, I get it.
00:10:12You're upset about the breakup, but now you're spiraling.
00:10:18Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that.
00:10:21You know, I was actually going to offer you a job as a janitor here.
00:10:25But after this, I don't even think you're worth that.
00:10:29You 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.
00:10:43So that's what you think of me?
00:10:45That's reality.
00:10:47And after everything, trust me, Eleanor.
00:10:51Whitmore 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,
00:11:00why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?
00:11:10Where is she?
00:11:14Where is she?
00:11:15Conference Hall.
00:11:16It's tense.
00:11:17From what I heard, she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:11:20Dumped her.
00:11:21They broke up?
00:11:22Yeah.
00:11:23Well, I guess that saves me the trouble of stealing someone's fiancée.
00:11:29What's your goal here, Eleanor?
00:11:31Seriously?
00:11:32You'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.
00:11:46I've got you.
00:11:47I've got you.
00:11:50Remember, 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.
00:12:02I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.
00:12:06Honestly, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.
00:12:11Was it?
00:12:13Because when the trip comes out, you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:12:16Yes.
00:12:17Mr. Whitmore is arriving.
00:12:19Mr. Whitmore, he came straight from the airport.
00:12:20He's in the lobby.
00:12:21Wait, he actually came?
00:12:22Oh my god.
00:12:23He's here for Daniel.
00:12:24You hear that, everyone?
00:12:25Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son!
00:12:27This is it.
00:12:29No one can touch us now.
00:12:31You hear that, sweetheart?
00:12:32Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:12:34Get out.
00:12:35While you still have legs to walk out on.
00:12:37This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:12:40Half a million dollars.
00:12:41Half a million?
00:12:42For her?
00:12:43It's worth it.
00:12:44To keep her from ruining my life.
00:12:48That's not what I have shared.
00:12:49I love my family.
00:12:50This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:12:52It's not what I'm talking about.
00:12:53I love my family.
00:12:54I love you.
00:12:55I love your family, my family.
00:12:56I love four of my family.
00:12:57I love you.
00:12:58I love you.
00:12:59I love you.
00:13:00I love you.
00:13:01I love you.
00:13:03I love you, too.
00:13:04I love you.
00:13:05I love you.
00:13:06I love you.
00:13:07I love you.
00:13:08It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.
00:13:14Take the money, Eleanor.
00:13:15Disappear.
00:13:17This is ten times more than you'll ever see in your life.
00:13:24Be smart.
00:13:27Take it and vanish.
00:13:33You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:13:38But when you realize the truth about who I really am...
00:13:56You'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.
00:14:01Shit! What the hell?!
00:14:03You dare humiliate me?!
00:14:05So you're someone now, huh?
00:14:09Someone who's gonna change things?!
00:14:12Then go ahead.
00:14:14Make your little announcement.
00:14:16But if it's bullshit, you're gonna be crawling out of here kissing every single person's shoes.
00:14:22Come on, this low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's heels in here.
00:14:27anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:41She's my wife.
00:14:43Is that high status enough for you?
00:14:44Mr. Rickmore?
00:14:46I did this to you?
00:14:48It's... fine.
00:14:50Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:14:52I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:14:53I meant what I said.
00:14:54Now let me take out the trash.
00:14:55And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:14:56Did you not hear me the first time?
00:14:57I'm her husband.
00:14:58This woman here...
00:14:59she's my wife.
00:15:00It's fine.
00:15:03Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:15:08I 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.
00:15:24This woman here, she's my wife.
00:15:28Wait, what? Mr. Whitmore married?
00:15:31But he's never, he's always kept his distance from women.
00:15:34Oh God, I'm dead.
00:15:36I'm so dead.
00:15:42Did you just say she's your wife?
00:15:44Eleanor, you shameless bitch!
00:15:46You strung Daniel along for years, for what?
00:15:49To sit behind his back and marry someone else?
00:15:52So 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?
00:15:59Playing me while you're sleeping with another man?
00:16:02Don't twist it.
00:16:03You 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.
00:16:14So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker.
00:16:18He has a PhD.
00:16:20He has a $30 million partner deal.
00:16:22You watch your mouth.
00:16:24Please.
00:16:25Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing.
00:16:28And you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:16:30Let me guess, she hired you, right?
00:16:33Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband and save your pride, right?
00:16:37So were you saying she hired an actor?
00:16:40Look at him.
00:16:42Designer suit.
00:16:43Sexy look.
00:16:44Total escort vibes.
00:16:48Exactly.
00:16:49She probably paid for the full fantasy package.
00:16:53Maybe he throws in a couple of extra services too.
00:16:57Oh God, that's Mr. Whitmore.
00:17:00She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:17:07I'm Dr. Prescott.
00:17:09Oh, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:10He probably works at some private club in Soho.
00:17:13She hired him by the hour.
00:17:15Let's not kid ourselves.
00:17:17I just need to understand.
00:17:19Relax, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:21This cheap street whore doesn't belong at Whitmore.
00:17:26But since Eleanor brought him, we don't have to worry about it.
00:17:31Really, Eleanor?
00:17:32You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:17:35I mean, it just screams.
00:17:37Pathetic.
00:17:38Exactly.
00:17:39You pathetic social climber.
00:17:41Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.
00:17:44Wait, wait, please stop, okay?
00:17:46Uncle Thomas, what?
00:17:47I've gotten into you.
00:17:49Why are you so fussy?
00:17:50It's just a washed up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:17:55Don't worry about it.
00:17:56Look, I will handle it.
00:17:58Okay?
00:17:59You want to keep up the fantasy?
00:18:01Good.
00:18:02But before the night ends, both of you will be finished.
00:18:07So you think this is pretend?
00:18:10Still clinging to the drama.
00:18:15No offense, pretty boy, but if she can afford you, so can I.
00:18:24What's the rate?
00:18:25Whatever she's giving you, I'll give you ten times the amount if you strip for the room.
00:18:31Oh God, no.
00:18:32No.
00:18:33They're dead.
00:18:34They are also dead.
00:18:35Say that again.
00:18:36You heard him.
00:18:37Ten times your rate.
00:18:38Ooh, and let Uncle Thomas have a peek.
00:18:39I don't think he's seen a male stripper before.
00:18:40No, no, no.
00:18:41I want no part of this.
00:18:42Oh, come on.
00:18:43Don't be shy.
00:18:44Just enjoy The Bachelor show.
00:18:45You're gonna give us a twirl, gritty boy.
00:18:46Daniel.
00:18:47Margaret.
00:18:48You have no idea the line you just clicked.
00:18:49Then stop faking.
00:18:50If you're gonna play pretend, you can't get mad when people lose your face.
00:18:52You're gonna play pretend.
00:18:53You're gonna play pretend.
00:18:54What's the hell?
00:18:55You're gonna play pretend.
00:18:56You can't get mad when people lose your face.
00:18:57I'm gonna play pretend.
00:18:58I'm gonna play pretend.
00:18:59Squirrel, gritty boy.
00:19:04Daniel, Margaret, you have no idea the line you just crossed.
00:19:09Then stop faking.
00:19:11If you're gonna play pretend, you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:19:16Alright, cowboy. Final offer.
00:19:22Ten times.
00:19:24Name your price.
00:19:29You watch your mouth.
00:19:37How dare you kill my son?
00:19:40Katie, are you okay?
00:19:42I'm gonna kill that bastard.
00:19:43Are you insane?
00:19:45Do you have any idea who you just laid your hands on?
00:19:47I don't care who you are.
00:19:49You don't talk about me or my wife like that ever again.
00:19:52You two are dead.
00:19:54You let a cowboy punch a senior candidate?
00:19:57No one will save you now.
00:20:00You just brought war on yourself.
00:20:02You have no idea who her father is.
00:20:05Is that supposed to scare us?
00:20:08Let her talk.
00:20:11I'm interested to see who she thinks I should be afraid of.
00:20:15My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:20:19Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:20:22And you two?
00:20:23You just flushed your future at that toilet.
00:20:29Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:20:30That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:20:32Who do you think you are?
00:20:33No one else dares sit here.
00:20:34I think it kind of suits me.
00:20:36Thomas.
00:20:37You recognize the seat.
00:20:38Would you say I belong here?
00:20:39Yes sir.
00:20:40Of course you do.
00:20:41Are you out of your mind?
00:20:42That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:20:44Who do you think you are?
00:20:45No one else dares sit here.
00:20:46I think it kind of suits me.
00:20:47Thomas.
00:20:48You recognize the seat.
00:20:49Would you say I belong here?
00:20:50Yes sir.
00:20:51Of course you do.
00:20:52Are you out of your mind?
00:20:53That seat belongs to Mr. Whitmore.
00:20:57No one sits there except for him or my father.
00:20:59And you actually dare to park your dumpy ass there?
00:21:03Funny.
00:21:04I'm sitting and I'm not moving.
00:21:06Got a problem?
00:21:07What?
00:21:08What?
00:21:09What?
00:21:10What?
00:21:11What?
00:21:12What?
00:21:13What?
00:21:14What?
00:21:15What?
00:21:16What?
00:21:17What?
00:21:18What?
00:21:19What?
00:21:20What?
00:21:21What?
00:21:22What?
00:21:23You want to play big shot?
00:21:26Fine.
00:21:27I'll give you one more chance.
00:21:29You 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?
00:21:41Yeah.
00:21:42Get 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?
00:21:52You and your little boy can bark together.
00:21:56How romantic.
00:21:57You're playing with fire.
00:21:59No, sweetheart.
00:22:01I am the fire.
00:22:02Now, I'll give you three seconds to kneel.
00:22:06Now.
00:22:07One.
00:22:08You...
00:22:09Margaret, please!
00:22:10Please, Margaret, don't!
00:22:11Get off of me!
00:22:12She hit me!
00:22:13You think I'm gonna let that slide?
00:22:14I understand.
00:22:15I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:22:16I am hitting that bitch.
00:22:17Margaret, you should apologize.
00:22:18What?
00:22:19You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:20It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:21Just think about it.
00:22:22Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:23You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:24I do not know the only reason I hope you have to have to be the only reason I hope you have to be the only reason I don't understand.
00:22:25I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:22:26I am hitting that bitch.
00:22:27Margaret, you should apologize.
00:22:29What?
00:22:30You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:31Apologize?
00:22:33What?
00:22:34You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:37It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:39Just think about it.
00:22:45Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:47You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:50Yes, I'm good.
00:22:52The only reason I call you uncle is because of my father.
00:22:56Now I get humiliated and you want me to apologize?
00:22:59Yes, I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:23:02You don't know what you're going to step into.
00:23:07I'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.
00:23:20Dad, I'm down on the meeting floor and some bitch just hit me.
00:23:24Can you get down here now, please?
00:23:29He's on his way.
00:23:32And when he gets here, you'll both be done.
00:23:37Oh, 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.
00:23:48Not even I can help you.
00:23:50Help them.
00:23:51Please.
00:23:52They did this to themselves.
00:23:54She and her boy toy need to be crushed.
00:23:56Best.
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.
00:24:08Who the hell is hitting my daughter in my building?
00:24:15Dad, thank God you're here.
00:24:29What?
00:24:30This was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.
00:24:33What the hell's going on?
00:24:34It's not my fault.
00:24:36This woman is causing a scene.
00:24:38Look, she even slapped me.
00:24:40That's insane.
00:24:42Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:24:45Did you tell them who I am?
00:24:47Of course I did.
00:24:48They didn't care.
00:24:49And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's feet.
00:24:55It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:24:57That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:25:00Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know.
00:25:03Shut up, you fool!
00:25:05You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:25:09Mr. West, you understand.
00:25:11That man is Mr. Whitmore.
00:25:14You dare bring up Mr. Whitmore?
00:25:16Dr. 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!
00:25:25I...
00:25:27You.
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!
00:25:41And she is the one that's been causing all of the problems!
00:25:46Mr. West, my son Daniel?
00:25:49He used to date Eleanor, but that's been done for a long time now.
00:25:53He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:25:56Relax.
00:25:57Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.
00:26:00He won't be held responsible.
00:26:02Oh, thank you, Mr. West!
00:26:06Hear that?
00:26:07My dad is here.
00:26:08He runs this place right under Sebastian.
00:26:11You are so done.
00:26:13And what happened to all that attitude?
00:26:16Hiding behind a chair now that a real boss is in the room?
00:26:20You really have no idea what's coming.
00:26:24Have you completely lost it?
00:26:26You dragged some random escort in here to play husband,
00:26:30and now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair too scared to turn around.
00:26:36Hey!
00:26:37You!
00:26:39Get your ass out of that chair right now before this gets ugly.
00:26:45Alright, that's enough.
00:26:46Someone go turn that damn chair around so I can see this clown's face!
00:26:50With pleasure.
00:26:51With pleasure.
00:26:55With pleasure.
00:26:56Daniel, I wouldn't touch that chair if I were you.
00:27:00Because when you do, your little career crumbles.
00:27:04Is that supposed to scare me?
00:27:06No, it's just a fact.
00:27:08He's not someone you're a boss.
00:27:11My father is the vice chair of Whitmore.
00:27:14No one outranks him except for Sebastian.
00:27:17And you actually think that we should be afraid of your little cowboy here?
00:27:21You think we're supposed to be scared of a guy you picked up in a nightclub?
00:27:26Please.
00:27:27These 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.
00:27:39You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford.
00:27:44To a fan.
00:27:45Really, and why is that?
00:27:47Because you're a nobody.
00:27:48Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.
00:27:54You all love to talk about who's finished,
00:27:56but once that chair turns around,
00:27:58you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:28:01You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?
00:28:04You 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.
00:28:12You've got guts.
00:28:14I'll give you that.
00:28:15My guts aren't going to help you if you piss me off.
00:28:21Now...
00:28:25Let me tell you what happens when your little husband
00:28:28tries to con his way into the Whitmore group.
00:28:31Oh, this is exciting.
00:28:35But do you think breaking their legs is enough?
00:28:37Maybe we should just throw them out of the country for good.
00:28:40Yes.
00:28:41That's what I plan to do.
00:28:44You.
00:28:46Turn that damn chair around right now,
00:28:48or I'm going to do it myself.
00:28:51No, Mr. West, please!
00:28:52You can't!
00:28:53Why the hell not?
00:28:56They deserve it.
00:28:58The only thing I can't understand
00:28:59is why everyone is acting so scared!
00:29:02You know, they actually told you 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?
00:29:18I suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:29:21That voice sounds so familiar.
00:29:24No, it can't be!
00:29:26Stop pretending!
00:29:27Turn that chair around!
00:29:46Is that supposed to scare me?
00:29:47I turned the chair, so now what?
00:29:51No.
00:29:53No way.
00:29:55You wanted to see me?
00:29:56James West?
00:29:59Mr. Whitmore!
00:30:01Deb, 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.
00:30:16I won't beg anyone.
00:30:17But you?
00:30:19You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:30:22Don't waste your breath on them.
00:30:26If they want to burn, let them.
00:30:29You see that, Eleanor?
00:30:31The fantasy is dead.
00:30:33Now that my dad's here, he'll-
00:30:35He'll kill you both.
00:30:36Both.
00:30:37So get out of that chair, cowboy, before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:30:42Shut up!
00:30:43Dad, why are you shaking?
00:30:44Oh, I get it.
00:30:45You're gonna kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:30:46Perfect.
00:30:47Do it.
00:30:48You two are dead.
00:30:49You see my dad's hands?
00:30:50They're shaking.
00:30:51They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:30:52And the more they shake, the angrier he is.
00:30:53Consider, perhaps, he's not shaking from anger.
00:30:54Please.
00:30:55My father fears no one.
00:30:56And if they're trembling, it's because he's about to fire a man.
00:30:57You're gonna kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:30:59Perfect.
00:31:00Do it.
00:31:02You two are dead.
00:31:04You see my dad's hands?
00:31:05They're shaking.
00:31:06They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:31:08And 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.
00:31:19And if they're trembling, it'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?
00:31:41Can we go ahead and deal with these nobodies?
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:46Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:31:52I'm dealing with you!
00:32:04Dad!
00:32:06You fool!
00:32:07Do you not know what you've done?
00:32:09Me?
00:32:10They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:32:14No!
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?
00:32:25You brainless idiots!
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!
00:32:41Oh!
00:32:42A PhD!
00:32:43Who made partner?
00:32:44I had no idea!
00:32:45That changes zero!
00:32:46PhD!
00:32:47What are you doing?!
00:32:48This is my son's celebration!
00:32:50There's no celebration!
00:32:51Not without that guy!
00:32:52Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:32:56What?
00:32:57Mr. Whitmore!
00:32:58I apologize for my idiot kid.
00:32:59Please!
00:33:00Please!
00:33:01I'm a PhD!
00:33:02I'm a PhD!
00:33:04What are you doing?!
00:33:05This is my son's celebration!
00:33:06What are you doing?!
00:33:07This is my son's celebration!
00:33:08There's no celebration!
00:33:09Not without that guy!
00:33:11Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:33:17What?
00:33:18Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:20I apologize for my idiot kid.
00:33:26Please, sir, forgive us.
00:33:29Mr. Whitmore, please forgive us.
00:33:31Mr. Whitmore, is this man really Sebastian Whitmore?
00:33:42I don't know.
00:33:44Eleanor said she was married to that guy, that man, Sebastian.
00:33:49How?
00:33:50No, no, no, no, he's not Sebastian.
00:33:54That is just some gigolo that she hired.
00:33:57Dad, Dad, this is a trick, right?
00:33:59This is just some joke.
00:34:01You idiot.
00:34:03You have ruined the West name.
00:34:07Now get on your knees and beg him for forgiveness.
00:34:11So that really is Sebastian?
00:34:18Mr. Whitmore, I am so sorry.
00:34:22Please 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.
00:34:29This isn't over.
00:34:30James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:34:34Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is.
00:34:37No, no, no, sir.
00:34:39I, I am sorry.
00:34:41My daughter is young.
00:34:42She's stupid and she does not represent me.
00:34:47You're right.
00:34:47She doesn't.
00:34:49But you do.
00:34:50And that's the problem.
00:34:52You're fired.
00:34:54No, please, sir.
00:34:55Don'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.
00:35:13I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.
00:35:16I'm untouchable because I always was.
00:35:20Seven years, Daniel.
00:35:21And you never once asked who I was.
00:35:25You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving.
00:35:30I, Dr. 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.
00:35:39Your offer is dead.
00:35:42What?
00:35:43Wait, 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.
00:35:53And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Prescott.
00:35:55I...
00:35:56I...
00:35:57I...
00:35:58Sebastian Whitmore!
00:36:06You have gone too far.
00:36:09Madam Whitmore!
00:36:12Get more!
00:36:16Grandma!
00:36:17Don't you dare call me that!
00:36:21The way you have defied this family!
00:36:26You'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?
00:36:38No, about the engagement.
00:36:40I'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.
00:36:52Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:36:57You were getting fired!
00:36:59But 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.
00:37:16Staffing decisions are mine.
00:37:17If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:37:22Sebastian, James has given decades to this company.
00:37:26And his termination is not happening.
00:37:30Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:37:31I 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...
00:37:45Thunder 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.
00:38:16Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:38:20Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:38:23That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:38:28Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia.
00:38:30I'm already...
00:38:31I 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.
00:38:43I 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.
00:38:55Whitmore, we are our first official U.S. partner.
00:38:57Perfect.
00:38:59Make sure it's loud.
00:39:04I'm going to 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.
00:39:19And to the Thunder Circle.
00:39:21That is the future.
00:39:23I'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else.
00:39:27I believe in building things myself, not chasing shortcuts.
00:39:31Shortcuts?
00:39:32It's called strategy.
00:39:35If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?
00:39:40What the hell is she doing?
00:39:51What 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?
00:39:58Someone needs to take her back out to the curb.
00:40:01Who is she?
00:40:02Madam Whitmore.
00:40:04This is Eleanor, my ex.
00:40:07She stalked me here and then latched onto Sebastian, pretending to be his wife just to oppose your engagement 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.
00:40:26That girl Eleanor?
00:40:27She just latched onto Sebastian to get herself out of trouble.
00:40:30That's just part of their scheme.
00:40:33Sebastian 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?
00:40:49Are you kidding me?
00:40:57For real?
00:41:00Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
00:41:04Are you out of your mind?
00:41:07You're doubling down on this circus.
00:41:09It's hilarious that you actually think he is going to marry you.
00:41:14So you're trying to take advantage now.
00:41:17Even if Sebastian's in trouble, there's no way he'd stoop to marrying 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?
00:41:29Of course.
00:41:31You propose to me, I'm just returning the favor.
00:41:34What's the matter, Sebastian?
00:41:36Are you scared?
00:41:37Eleanor, when I proposed to you, I had everything and you turned me down.
00:41:41And now that I'm suddenly in trouble, it's a yes?
00:41:44Exactly.
00:41:45I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune.
00:41:48I'm saying yes to you.
00:41:50Just as you are.
00:41:51Then, Eleanor, I say yes to you.
00:42:02I will marry you.
00:42:06There.
00:42:08There's my wife now.
00:42:10Anyone got a problem with that?
00:42:11Well done, Sebastian.
00:42:25So what?
00:42:26You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:42:31I see now my word needs 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.
00:42:47Grandma, 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.
00:43:10And you will attend, and you will pacify, Sylvia, because it's your last chance.
00:43:17And if you fail, you can go pack your things and move out of our family.
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.
00:43:45I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle.
00:43:47Deal's done.
00:43:48Confirmation?
00:43:51Talk is cheap.
00:43:53Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:43:57Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received a 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 fiancée?
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?
00:44:25You're invited to a gala that only invites a billionaire.
00:44:29That's right.
00:44:30Your recommendation comes directly from the Thunder Circle.
00:44:33What?
00:44:35Comes from where?
00:44:37Is that true?
00:44:39The 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.
00:44:50She might take a liking to you.
00:44:51Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:44:55I will go.
00:44:56Good.
00:44:57Then it's settled.
00:45:01The Thunder Circle gave their word.
00:45:03They wouldn't back out.
00:45:06Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:45:08Yes, sir.
00:45:08Hey, relax.
00:45:14I said they'd invest in you, they slow both.
00:45:16Really?
00:45:18A backroom's nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:45:25We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.
00:45:29And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:45:32You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:45:37You are not invited, but we are.
00:45:41We'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:45:43Tomorrow?
00:45:45You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband.
00:45:47Be lucky if you're still breathing by tomorrow.
00:45:50If you have even a shred of sense left, you'll get on a plane tonight.
00:45:55Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:45:59Oh, so I'm the gold digger now?
00:46:02Of course!
00:46:03You're cleaning to Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:46:06But not even he can support you now.
00:46:08Forget it, Mom.
00:46:10Talking to her is a waste of time.
00:46:12If I do end up impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow,
00:46:15maybe I'll toss you a favor.
00:46:18Keep you alive.
00:46:21Let's go.
00:46:21I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle,
00:46:33you still feel this high.
00:46:38Hey.
00:46:39Don't listen to them.
00:46:41I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:46:45Relax, Mr. Whitmore.
00:46:46I've got this.
00:46:48Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:46:51Yes, ma'am.
00:46:53I get it.
00:46:53You're the dangerous one.
00:46:56But the Thunder Circle,
00:46:58the Caldwell family,
00:46:59there are a lot to handle.
00:47:01So what?
00:47:02So, tomorrow I'll sign the deal.
00:47:04I'll secure everything.
00:47:06Because keeping you safe is my job now.
00:47:08Wow, what a hero.
00:47:10Now what happened to that
00:47:11cocky CEO who was begging me
00:47:14to marry him on the plane?
00:47:16Oh, come on.
00:47:17That was so embarrassing.
00:47:18That guy on the plane, he's dead now.
00:47:20He no longer exists, all right?
00:47:23So, my wife,
00:47:25shall we move to the next step?
00:47:27Let's get married.
00:47:28Let's get married.
00:47:28Let's get married.
00:47:30Let's get married.
00:47:44Let's get married.
00:47:49How are the preparations for tomorrow's gala?
00:47:53Everything is ready.
00:47:54The media is locked
00:47:55and the billion dollar contract
00:47:57for Whitmore has been firewashed.
00:48:00Just remember,
00:48:01this isn't for the Whitmore family.
00:48:02This is for Sebastian.
00:48:04So make sure all the funds
00:48:06fall into his hands only.
00:48:08Understood.
00:48:09Also,
00:48:10two of our allies
00:48:11are requesting a news.
00:48:13One is Prince Amir
00:48:14of the Diamond Magnate
00:48:15and the other is General Veretti.
00:48:17They're outside.
00:48:18Should I let him in?
00:48:19Bring him in.
00:48:25Lady Panda.
00:48:27Lady Thunder.
00:48:28Lady Thunder.
00:48:29Please.
00:48:33So,
00:48:34how have you been?
00:48:36Your business is good?
00:48:37Yes, Lady Thunder.
00:48:39And thank you.
00:48:40Your support doing
00:48:41my toughest year
00:48:43meant everything.
00:48:44My weapons empire
00:48:45now spans
00:48:46five continents.
00:48:48Impressive.
00:48:50And you, Amir?
00:48:52As usual,
00:48:53I'm doing well.
00:48:55Without your backing,
00:48:55I wouldn't be where I am.
00:48:57Leading my country
00:48:57with stability.
00:48:59It's good to hear.
00:49:00So can I expect
00:49:01both of you
00:49:01at the gals tomorrow?
00:49:03Of course.
00:49:04Whatever you want,
00:49:05Lady Thunder.
00:49:06Just say the word.
00:49:08I will back you
00:49:09no matter what.
00:49:12I'm afraid
00:49:13I can't attend.
00:49:15Things have grown
00:49:16tense
00:49:17between the Cold West
00:49:18and me.
00:49:20What happened?
00:49:21Well,
00:49:23in the past few years,
00:49:25they've been
00:49:25expanding aggressively,
00:49:27crushing competitors
00:49:28left and right.
00:49:30I thought they were
00:49:31acting with your approval,
00:49:32so I
00:49:32didn't intervene.
00:49:35No, I never
00:49:36authorized any of that.
00:49:41Seems I underestimated
00:49:43how far they'd go.
00:49:44This ends now.
00:49:46They will answer
00:49:47for everything
00:49:47that they've done.
00:49:48Well, then,
00:49:52tomorrow should be
00:49:53entertaining.
00:49:58Let's shake
00:50:02the world
00:50:02together.
00:50:03Cheers.
00:50:17Sebastian?
00:50:18Hey.
00:50:24Just checking in.

00:50:41woman in the room.

00:50:44Or is it so you can
00:50:45make your enemies jealous?

01:01:01but tonight after the gala it's official public that doesn't scare you i've been dying to tell the world you're mine
01:01:22winston congratulations with us and that makes you next in line for ceo
01:01:35wow let's be honest sebastian has never been ceo material
01:01:40My grandmother saw that, and 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.
01:01:56And you, Whitmore's golden boy, look like you've got it locked.
01:02:10You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:17You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:21This is the Thunder Circle Return Gallery.
01:02:23As a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:02:26Well, 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.
01:02:48Now this man, my brother, used to be the acting CEO of the Whitmore Group.
01:02:55He could have married Sylvia and joined the powerful Caldwell family, but instead, he married her.
01:03:02A gold digger. Now, 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 tripped by the wiles of a cheap hole.
01:03:16He offended the Caldwell family. He's dead now.
01:03:21You 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.
01:03:31But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:03:36And you, this poor excuse for life. I'll deal with you first.
01:03:43I'd like to see what kind of idiot thinks they can deal with me here.
01:03:48Don't you run your mouth!
01:03:58You 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?
01:04:10Sebastian, let him go. I'm curious to see how far he'll take this.
01:04:18Isn't she just a nobody? Where did she get the guts?
01:04:21Because she's riding Sebastian's coattails. Once he's gone, she's out.
01:04:26You just humiliated your entire family in front of everyone.
01:04:30You chose a bitch over the blood.
01:04:33That'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.
01:04:46He does not, but I do!
01:04:54Grandma.
01:04:56Sebastian.
01:04:59I'm going to ask you this for the last time. Are you going to marry Sylvia?
01:05:06No, grandmother. I never loved her.
01:05:09I 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.
01:05:26Do you really think marrying into the Caldwell family is going to elevate us?
01:05:31Of course I do!
01:05:33And what are you trying to say?
01:05:35The Caldwells say merge, but you and I both really know what they want.
01:05:39They want our assets, our name, and when they're done sucking us dry, Wilmore will be nothing.
01:05:44We can't trust them. And we can't trust Sylvia.
01:05:51No wonder Sebastian's a CEO.
01:05:53Sharp instincts.
01:05:54Looks like I picked the right man.
01:05:57Grandma, don't listen to him.
01:05:59Sylvia promised.
01:06:00And if Sebastian agrees, the 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.
01:06:09And Sylvia's already on her way.
01:06:12Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this gala.
01:06:16If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:06:19Everything.
01:06:21You're right.
01:06:23We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now.
01:06:26Do you hear that?
01:06:28Do you see what we have at stake?
01:06:30What are you laughing at?
01:06:33All of this.
01:06:35You're ready to sell Sebastian off for a shot at winning Sylvia's attention.
01:06:40And you call that a strategy?
01:06:43Sniffing 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.
01:06:57What are you saying?
01:06:58Don't be ridiculous.
01:07:00Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:03She's out of her mind.
01:07:05The Thunder Circle is untouchable.
01:07:07How does someone like her say something like that?
01:07:10You're all looking down on me because you don't know who I really am.
01:07:12But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:07:17Prove it!
01:07:18But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:07:21I am...
01:07:23This isn't about her lies.
01:07:24She's going to bring down the entire Whitmore family legacy.
01:07:27Mrs. Whitmore, you may not know this, but yesterday Sebastian and Eleanor aggressively acquired every Ravine Caldwell boutique.
01:07:42Sebastian, is this true?
01:07:45The boutiques were taken over by Lady Thunder. Eleanor just asked for help.
01:07:49How did she know?
01:07:51Because they played the charity card.
01:07:54Years in Africa, nannying kids, all of it was to gain the Lady Thunder's favor.
01:08:01Exactly! No wonder she seduced Sebastian, turned him against his own family!
01:08:06She has made a career out of clinging to powerful people!
01:08:10She's dangerous!
01:08:11She's conniving Paris, son!
01:08:15You have offended the heir of the Caldwell family, and now you're trying to drag us down with you?
01:08:23You ruined the Alliance.
01:08:25And now you show up here and crash the Thunder Circle Gala?
01:08:29We should make her crawl and beg for forgiveness.
01:08:33The 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.
01:08:45You miser.
01:08:48Facts, huh?
01:08:54That's Sylvia Caldwell. Things are about to get ugly.
01:08:58Eleanor's finished. Once you cross the Caldwells, you're out.
01:09:02Is that the famous Caldwell heiress?
01:09:05My son, you could do worse than marrying her.
01:09:09Mother!
01:09:10Alright, alright!
01:09:12You were made for Lady Thunder.
01:09:14That's the one you deserve.
01:09:16Sylvia!
01:09:18Thank God you're here.
01:09:20Seriously, Winston?
01:09:22One girl, and you crumble?
01:09:24Pathetic! Move!
01:09:29So, you found the line.
01:09:31First you steal.
01:09:34Then you get our stores.
01:09:36And fire my brother.
01:09:38Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:09:41Why do I have to choose either?
01:09:43Are you that rattled?
01:09:46Good.
01:09:48Let's see how brave you are.
01:09:50Sylvia, don't!
01:09:52Sebastian, 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.
01:10:00To build something better.
01:10:02Better?
01:10:04You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:10:10Fine.
01:10:12You want something better?
01:10:14Oh!
01:10:16Kneel.
01:10:18Both of you, and beg me for it.
01:10:22That's enough.
01:10:24Enough!
01:10:25I've only gotten started.
01:10:27By the time tonight's gala ends, Whitmore won't even exist.
01:10:31Miss Caldwell, you can't do this.
01:10:34You promised to back our rise into the thunderstorm.
01:10:37You promised Sebastian would marry me.
01:10:40Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:10:41Do you hear now?
01:10:43Kneel!
01:10:44Marry her!
01:10:45Don't drag this family down with you.
01:10:47You're trying to doom us all, you ungrateful bastard!
01:10:51What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:10:53Too proud to kneel?
01:10:56Looks like...
01:10:58you're the one who should be the one.
01:11:00Oh my god!
01:11:01She's insane!
01:11:02She's totally insane!
01:11:03Oh my god.
01:11:04Sylvia?
01:11:05Are you hurt?
01:11:07Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:10Oh my god!
01:11:11She's insane!
01:11:12She's totally insane!
01:11:15Oh my god.
01:11:16Sylvia?
01:11:17Are you hurt?
01:11:20Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:27You 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!
01:11:44It's not only an insult to me,
01:11:46it's treason against Lady Thunder herself!
01:11:49She will be eliminated!
01:11:51And anyone who stands with her,
01:11:54becomes my enemy!
01:11:56This is it.
01:11:57If I stand with Sylvia now,
01:11:58I'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!
01:12:08I second that!
01:12:09She's a disgrace!
01:12:11She defies everything we stand for!
01:12:13We must punish her!
01:12:15Punish her!
01:12:16Punish her!
01:12:17Punish her!
01:12:18Punish her!
01:12:19Punish her!
01:12:20Punish her!
01:12:21Punish her!
01:12:22Punish her!
01:12:25No, you got it all wrong!
01:12:27Everyone saw what she did.
01:12:28You're really gonna defend her?
01:12:30Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:12:32Game over.
01:12:34You breathe, because I allow it.
01:12:37When I say you're finished...
01:12:38Don't you dare.
01:12:39If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:12:42Shut up, Sebastian!
01:12:43Everyone here wants her gone!
01:12:45You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her!
01:12:49You wanna ruin yourself? Fine.
01:12:51But 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 wanna die?
01:12:58Impressive, Sylvia.
01:13:00You twisted the truth so quickly.
01:13:02But you picked the wrong opponent.
01:13:04All of you?
01:13:06You're just insects in my eyes.
01:13:08Still mouthing off?
01:13:10I'll send you straight to Hell!
01:13:12And who exactly are you planning on sending to Hell?
01:13:15General Varelli and Prince Amir?
01:13:17What are they doing here?
01:13:18This is the Thunder Circle's Return Gala.
01:13:19Big names were expected.
01:13:21Too bad for her.
01:13:22She's even more screwed now.
01:13:24What are you doing here, Varelli?
01:13:26We were just about to take out the trash.
01:13:28So, unless you plan on interfering with Thunder Circle justice,
01:13:32I suggest you let us finish.
01:13:33Sylvia Caldwell.
01:13:34Sylvia Caldwell.
01:13:35Who excited were you planning to kill?
01:13:37Her.
01:13:38She attacked me in public.
01:13:40She disrupted the Gala.
01:13:42Look, I know we've had our differences, but don't tell me.
01:13:43I'm sorry.
01:13:44I'm sorry.
01:13:45I'm sorry.
01:13:46I'm sorry.
01:13:47I'm sorry.
01:13:48I'm sorry.
01:13:49I'm sorry.
01:13:50I'm sorry.
01:13:51I'm sorry.
01:13:52I'm sorry.
01:13:53I'm sorry.
01:13:54I'm sorry.
01:13:55You're here to steal my credit to impress Lady Thunder.
01:14:07Steal credit?
01:14:09You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:14:12One more word out of you, and the Caldwell name is history.
01:14:15You're serious?
01:14:17Deadly.
01:14:18You touch it again, and your entire empire burns to the ground.
01:14:22Because the woman you just threatened is Lady Thunder herself.
01:14:28Lady Thunder!
01:14:35What?
01:14:36Lady Thunder, don't be ridiculous.
01:14:38She's just a gold digger, for God's sake.
01:14:42Exactly.
01:14:43She's a broke hooker.
01:14:46This is just another bluff.
01:14:47She's pulling the same stunts, okay?
01:14:50She already used Lady Thunder to crush the Caldwell stores,
01:14:54and now she's doing the same thing.
01:14:56Sabotaging 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.
01:15:10Do you really think that Morelli, Amir, and the entire Thunder circle
01:15:14couldn't erase your family ever had it?
01:15:16The real Lady Thunder could.
01:15:18But tonight, she's gonna destroy you.
01:15:21And all your fake pretenders.
01:15:27Weapons 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 a liar!
01:15:42Stand down!
01:15:46Stand down!
01:15:48That's Adam Lee.
01:15:49Lady Thunder's right hand.
01:15:51Lee only arrives when she commands it.
01:15:53What is happening?
01:15:56Mr. Lee, finally.
01:15:59Your Lady Thunder 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.
01:16:22While you were polishing your shoes, she was saving children.
01:16:26That can't be!
01:16:28No.
01:16:29No, 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.
01:16:40And the system's only locked with one thing.
01:16:43Her fingerprints.
01:16:46If she is who she says she is, let her unlock it.
01:16:50Yeah, let her prove it.
01:16:51She can't!
01:16:52It's all just empty words.
01:16:54Go ahead, Eleanor.
01:16:56Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:17:00Unlock the funds.
01:17:01Right here.
01:17:02Right now!
01:17:05Eleanor.
01:17:07Are you sure you can confirm this?
01:17:09Sebastian.
01:17:11It's time for them to see the truth.
01:17:13Highest level authorization.
01:17:14Verified, Eleanor Thunder.
01:17:15Type, CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:16One hundred billion funds activated.
01:17:17My God!
01:17:43My God!
01:17:47She is Lady Thunder.
01:17:48The CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:50She's investing a hundred billion dollars into Sebastian?
01:17:52What?
01:17:53No, this isn't happening.
01:17:55Now you all know who I really am.
01:17:57She really opened it.
01:17:59Eleanor is Lady Thunder.
01:18:01Lady Thunder!
01:18:02Lady Thunder!
01:18:04Lady Thunder!
01:18:06What now, Sylvia?
01:18:07What else do you have to say?
01:18:09I don't know.
01:18:10I don't know.
01:18:11I don't know.
01:18:12I don't know.
01:18:13I don't know.
01:18:14I don't know.
01:18:15I don't know.
01:18:16I don't know.
01:18:17I don't know.
01:18:18I don't know.
01:18:19I don't know.
01:18:20I don't know.
01:18:21I don't know.
01:18:22I don't know.
01:18:23Sylvia!
01:18:24Sylvia!
01:18:25Sylvia!
01:18:31Sylvia!
01:18:33This is her.
01:18:35Your call won't be even started.
01:18:38My father will kill me.
01:18:40Take them out.
01:18:41We'll deal with them later.
01:18:43So, Eleanor, it's true.
01:19:00You're the Lady Thunder.
01:19:04The CEO of the Thunder Group.
01:19:07And the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:11Does this even matter anymore?
01:19:14Of course it matters.
01:19:17I would have never broken up with you if I had known.
01:19:19Things could have been different.
01:19:22Could they have been, Daniel?
01:19:26If I had told you that I was Lady Thunder, would you have believed me?
01:19:30That 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.
01:19:38And you never believed in me.
01:19:43No, that's not true.
01:19:45All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top of it.
01:19:51I didn't mean anything to you.
01:19:52I didn't mean anything to you.
01:19:55I... this... this... this... I... I... I... I don't...
01:19:58You made your choice, Daniel.
01:20:00So every benefit that I gave you, every contact, every dollar, I'm taking it all back.
01:20:05Eleanor, please! We've known each other for years!
01:20:16You've always been like a daughter to me!
01:20:19Whatever misunderstandings are between us, we can fix...
01:20:23A daughter?
01:20:25Weren't you the person that called me a useless girl?
01:20:27Not good enough for your son?
01:20:28It was before! I didn't know! I 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.
01:20:52No! Please! No!
01:20:55We were together for so long, Eleanor. Please! Please forgive me.
01:21:01I wanted a fast track to power.
01:21:04Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the show.
01:21:18Eleanor...
01:21:19Lady Thunder...
01:21:22You and my grandson make a perfect pair, so...
01:21:27Congratulations!
01:21:29Yes. Congratulations to you both!
01:21:33You are Sebastian. That's interesting. Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:21:42Well, no! That was a mistake!
01:21:45He'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...
01:22:00I've decided I'm stepping away from the Witten Wolves.
01:22:03It's time I've made something that's truly mine.
01:22:06And not in the family's shadow.
01:22:08But Sebastian, you...
01:22:11I think you should be grateful that he's still calling you Grandfather.
01:22:18Don't push your luck, madam.
01:22:20You're right.
01:22:23I will accept whatever choice you make. And respect you.
01:22:28I will accept whatever choice you make.
01:22:31And respect you.
01:22:32Eleanor.
01:22:33Eleanor, as you can see I'm no longer just a Whitmore, a man starting over, but if you'll
01:22:55have me, I'd like to start it with you. Will you stay by my side and marry me? Of course I will.
01:23:09And this time as your white investor and co-founder.
