00:00:00I'm sorry.
00:00:01What?
00:00:02Are you sure?
00:00:05Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe this.
00:00:08The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:00:11Wait, 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.
00:00:26We got it.
00:00:28A hundred billion?
00:00:34That's better.
00:00:35She was right.
00:00:37It was a hundred billion.
00:00:39Parker.
00:00:40Find her.
00:00:41Find who?
00:00:42The girl from the Nairobi flight.
00:00:44Eleanor.
00:00:45I don't care what it takes.
00:00:47You find her.
00:00:48Understood, but what do you want with her?
00:00:51I'm going to marry her.
00:00:53Wait, what?
00:00:55I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:01:01She's the one I want.
00:01:04You self-important bitch.
00:01:10Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:12I get it, Eleanor.
00:01:13You're not upset about the breakup.
00:01:15You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:01:18Name your number.
00:01:19Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off.
00:01:22And then we're done.
00:01:23Is that what you think?
00:01:25That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:30How about a hundred grand?
00:01:35Two hundred?
00:01:37Daniel.
00:01:38Three.
00:01:39That's my final offer.
00:01:41Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:01:44Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:01:47Just take the money and go.
00:01:49Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:01:52God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:01:55And what do you mean by that?
00:01:57I mean, if you weren't selling yourself,
00:02:01how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:02:05Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:10What?
00:02:12How dare you, Eleanor?
00:02:14For the sake of our seven years together,
00:02:18just take the money and leave.
00:02:21Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:24He's done with you.
00:02:27Get him through your thick head.
00:02:29She's not worth your time.
00:02:32Oh, where's Margaret?
00:02:34Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:02:35Yeah.
00:02:36Said she had to handle something first.
00:02:38She'll be here soon.
00:02:39Margaret?
00:02:41Margaret.
00:02:43Daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:02:48Practically next in line, next to the bathroom.
00:02:51Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:02:55Rich.
00:02:56Properly pedigree.
00:02:58And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:02Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:03:06You should leave.
00:03:08Trust me, you don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:03:11Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:16So that's what this really is about.
00:03:20This isn't about the job.
00:03:22This is about her.
00:03:23This 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?
00:03:32You?
00:03:33Please.
00:03:34So.
00:03:35You actually think you're better than me.
00:03:39Margaret, my dear.
00:03:40You're here.
00:03:41So.
00:03:42You must be Eleanor.
00:03:43Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:03:44I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:03:46Bargain bin dress, basic face, still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:01Don't mind her.
00:04:02She never deserved to be with me.
00:04:03I'm a woman.
00:04:04I'm a woman.
00:04:05She's a man.
00:04:06I'm a woman.
00:04:07I'm a woman.
00:04:08I'm a girl.
00:04:09You're a man.
00:04:10I'm a woman.
00:04:11I'm a woman.
00:04:12I'm a woman.
00:04:13And I'm a woman.
00:04:14I'm a woman.
00:04:15She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:18She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:21So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:24I'm Margaret West, daughter of James West,
00:04:28vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:31And 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.
00:04:41Excuse me?
00:04:42You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:46Get out of here before I have security drag you out
00:04:48like the street rat you are.
00:04:51Exactly.
00:04:52This is a ceremony for elites, not fake.
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?
00:05:08Daniel dumped her.
00:05:09And now she's crashing his party.
00:05:12Well, Dr. Piscott was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.
00:05:17So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:21Exactly.
00:05:23Take a look around.
00:05:25These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:27This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:05:30CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:35And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:05:41I was running a charity.
00:05:43Oh, charity.
00:05:45Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:48Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:05:53Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:05:56To chase my son, hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:06:01So she's a gold digger.
00:06:02How pathetic.
00:06:04Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:06Hear that?
00:06:11This is reality.
00:06:12My son, a PhD, future partner, and 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.
00:06:32Eleanor, a woman can be broke or uneducated, but delusional.
00:06:50Now, that's where I draw the line.
00:06:52No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:06:57It's funny, Daniel.
00:06:59You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:07:02Believing in you.
00:07:03Seven years.
00:07:04Seven years of working and wiring you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:07:09And this is how it ends?
00:07:11Don't twist this.
00:07:14I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:16I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:18I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:21I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:07:24And the second you get upstairs, you drop me.
00:07:28I said I would pay you back.
00:07:30What more do you want?
00:07:32This isn't a transaction.
00:07:34That's not remorse, Daniel.
00:07:36That's cowardice wrapped up in a check.
00:07:39We're done.
00:07:43You ungrateful bitch.
00:07:50That's enough.
00:07:54Enough.
00:07:55I'm done with your tantrums.
00:07:58Get the fuck out of my life.
00:08:03God.
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.
00:08:10Lady, that's enough.
00:08:11Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore Group.
00:08:13You?
00:08:14You're humiliating yourself.
00:08:15Get out.
00:08:16We found Eleanor, sir.
00:08:17Where?
00:08:18She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:08:20What?
00:08:21Things are getting ugly.
00:08:22Dr. Prescott?
00:08:23Quick.
00:08:24Get to HQ now.
00:08:25You see that?
00:08:26Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:27Just leave, Eleanor.
00:08:28Before this gets worse for you.
00:08:29Worse?
00:08:30No.
00:08:31No.
00:08:32No.
00:08:33No.
00:08:34No.
00:08:35No.
00:08:36No.
00:08:37No.
00:08:38No.
00:08:39No.
00:08:40No.
00:08:41No.
00:08:42No.
00:08:43No.
00:08:44No.
00:08:45No.
00:08:46No.
00:08:47No.
00:08:48No.
00:08:49No.
00:08:50No.
00:08:51No.
00:08:52No.
00:08:53No.
00:08:54No.
00:08:55No.
00:08:56No.
00:08:57No.
00:08:58No.
00:08:59No.
00:09:00No.
00:09:01No.
00:09:02No.
00:09:03No.
00:09:04No.
00:09:05No.
00:09:06No.
00:09:07No.
00:09:08No.
00:09:09No.
00:09:10No.
00:09:11No.
00:09:12No.
00:09:13No.
00:09:14No.
00:09:15No.
00:09:16No.
00:09:17No.
00:09:18No.
00:09:19No.
00:09:20No.
00:09:21No.
00:09:22No.
00:09:23because I have every right to be here,
00:09:25and no one has the right to push me out.
00:09:27Not even Sebastian.
00:09:31Faster, I don't care what it takes.
00:09:32Get me to her now.
00:09:33Yes, sir.
00:09:38Eleanor, do you have any idea
00:09:40what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:43Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:09:47You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:09:50Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him,
00:09:52but you, you are so dead.
00:09:56In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable,
00:09:58but in mine, he's just a man.
00:10:01If I were you, I'd be more worried
00:10:04that you laid a hand on me.
00:10:06Sebastian might not be okay with that.
00:10:09God, you must really have a death wish.
00:10:11Eleanor, forget it.
00:10:13You're upset about the breakup,
00:10:15but now you're spiraling.
00:10:19Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that,
00:10:22you know, I was actually going to offer you a job
00:10:25as a janitor here, but after this,
00:10:27I don't even think you're worth that.
00:10:30You were going to recommend me for a janitor position?
00:10:33Do you know how competitive it is to work here?
00:10:36Even our security guards have degrees,
00:10:39and 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.
00:10:58And 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?
00:11:15Where is she?
00:11:16Comfort hall.
00:11:17It's tense.
00:11:18From what I heard,
00:11:18she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:11:21Dumped her.
00:11:22They broke up?
00:11:23Yeah.
00:11:24Well, I guess that saved me the trouble
00:11:25of stealing someone's fiance.
00:11:26What'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.
00:11:37She couldn't keep you,
00:11:38so she's trying to drag you down with her.
00:11:40Ew.
00:11:41Pathetic.
00:11:43Ex-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,
00:11:55whatever stunt you're pulling?
00:11:57Yes.
00:11:57Trust me.
00:11:59When Mr. Whitmore gets here,
00:12:00she'll have maybe five minutes.
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 trip comes out,
00:12:15you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:12:22Yes.
00:12:23Mr. Whitmore is arriving.
00:12:27Mr. Whitmore, he came straight from the airport.
00:12:30He's in the lobby.
00:12:31Wait, he actually came?
00:12:32Oh my God.
00:12:33He's here for Daniel.
00:12:35You hear that, everyone?
00:12:37Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son.
00:12:43This is it.
00:12:44No one can touch us now.
00:12:46You 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.
00:12:59This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:13:03Half a million dollars.
00:13:06Half a million?
00:13:08For 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.
00:13:24Be smart.
00:13:27Take it.
00:13:29And finish.
00:13:30You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:13:41But when you realize the truth about who I really am...
00:13:45You'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.
00:14:23Come on.
00:14:24This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone she was in here.
00:14:41She's my wife.
00:14:43Is that high status enough for you?
00:14:45I did this to you?
00:14:59It's fine.
00:15:01Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:15:09I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:15:12I meant what I said.
00:15:15Now let me take out the trash.
00:15:18And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:15:21Did you not hear me the first time?
00:15:22I'm her husband.
00:15:25This woman here...
00:15:26She's my wife.
00:15:29Wait, what?
00:15:30Mr. Whitmore married?
00:15:32But he's never...
00:15:33He's always kept his distance from women.
00:15:34Oh, God.
00:15:36I'm dead.
00:15:37I'm so dead.
00:15:42Did you just say she's your wife?
00:15:45Eleanor, you shameless bitch!
00:15:47You strung Daniel along for years.
00:15:50For what?
00:15:50To sleep behind his back and marry someone else?
00:15:52So she was already married.
00:15:54She was never in it for you.
00:15:56She 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.
00:16:08You don't even realize what you've thrown away.
00:16:11Eleanor's a brilliant woman.
00:16:13You were never even close to being worthy of her.
00:16:15So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker?
00:16:19He has a PhD.
00:16:20He has a $30 million partner deal.
00:16:23You watch your mouth.
00:16:25Please.
00:16:26Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing,
00:16:28and you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:16:31Let me guess, she hired you, right?
00:16:34Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband
00:16:36and save your pride, right?
00:16:39So would you say she hired an answer?
00:16:41Look at him.
00:16:42Designer suit, sexy look,
00:16:45total escort vibes.
00:16:48Exactly.
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.
00:16:59That's Mr. Whitmore.
00:17:01She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:17:08I'm Dr. Prescott.
00:17:10Oh, 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.
00:17:18Okay.
00:17:18I need 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,
00:17:30we don't have to worry about it.
00:17:31Really, Eleanor?
00:17:32You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:17:36I mean, it 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, please stop, okay?
00:17:46Uncle Thomas, what?
00:17:48I've gotten into you.
00:17:49Why do I feel fussy?
00:17:50It's just a washed-up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:17:56Don't worry about it.
00:17:57Look, I will handle it, okay?
00:18:00You 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?
00:18:11Still clinging to the drama.
00:18:19No offense, pretty boy,
00:18:21but if she can afford you, so can I.
00:18:24What's the rate?
00:18:26Whatever she's giving you,
00:18:27I'll give you ten times the amount
00:18:29if you strip for the room.
00:18:33Oh, God, no, no.
00:18:37They're dead.
00:18:38They are also dead.
00:18:40Say that again.
00:18:42You heard him.
00:18:44Ten 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.
00:18:50Ooh, I, no, no, no, I want no part of this.
00:18:54Oh, come on, don't be shy.
00:18:56Just enjoy the Bachelor show.
00:18:58You're gonna give us a twirl, pretty boy?
00:19:03Daniel, Margaret.
00:19:06You have no idea the line you just crossed.
00:19:09Then stop faking.
00:19:12If you're gonna play pretend,
00:19:13you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:19:16All right, cowboy.
00:19:19Final offer.
00:19:22Ten times.
00:19:24Name your price.
00:19:31You watch your mouth.
00:19:37How dare you have 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.
00:20:15My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:20:19Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:20:23And you two?
00:20:24You just flushed your future back with it.
00:20:31Thank you, Ricky.
00:20:41Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:20:43That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:20:46Who do you think you are?
00:20:47No one else dare to sit here.
00:20:49I think it kind of suits me.
00:20:52Thomas.
00:20:54Do you recognize the seat?
00:20:57Would you say I belong here?
00:21:02Yes, sir.
00:21:03Of 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.
00:21:21You got a problem?
00:21:24If 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 license.
00:21:39Beg?
00:21:39You?
00:21:40Yeah.
00:21:40Get 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, how 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.
00:22:15Margaret, please, please, Margaret, don't.
00:22:19Get off of me!
00:22:21She hit me! You think I'm gonna let that slide?
00:22:24I understand.
00:22:25I do not care if she is the Queen of England. I'm hitting that bitch.
00:22:29Margaret, you should apologize.
00:22:33What?
00:22:35You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:37It's not too late to apologize. Just think about it.
00:22:45Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:48You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:51Listen, 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're not to step into.
00:23:05I'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 gonna 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?
00:23:30He'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.
00:23:49Not even I can help you.
00:23:51Help them?
00:23:52Please.
00:23:53They 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.
00:24:03Still 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?
00:24:27Dad, 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 slaps me.
00:24:41That's insane.
00:24:43Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:24:46Did you tell them who I am?
00:24:48Of course I did. They didn't care.
00:24:50And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's feet.
00:24:56It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:24:57That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:25:01Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know.
00:25:04Shut up, you fool!
00:25:06You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:25:10Mr. West, you understand?
00:25:11That man is Mr. Whitmore!
00:25:15You 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!
00:25:25I...
00:25:27You.
00:25:29You two.
00:25:32You are the ones that are stirring up all this trouble?
00:25:35That's right! Him! He is Eleanor's fake husband! And she is the one that's been causing all of the problems!
00:25:46Mr. West, my son Daniel, he used to date Eleanor, but that's been done for a long time now. He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:25:57Relax. Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore. He won't be held responsible.
00:26:02Oh, thank you, Mr. West!
00:26:07Hear that? My dad is here. He runs this place right under Sebastian. You 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?
00:26:22You really have no idea what's coming.
00:26:25Have you completely lost it?
00:26:28You dragged some random escort in here to play husband, and now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair too scared to turn around.
00:26:35Hey! You! Get your ass out of that chair right now before this gets ugly.
00:26:45Alright, that's enough. Someone go turn that damn chair around so I can see this clown's face!
00:26:51With pleasure.
00:26:55With pleasure.
00:26:57Daniel, 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?
00:27:07No, it's just a fact. He's not so familiar with us.
00:27:11My father is the vice chair of Whitmore. No 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?
00:27:27Please. These 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.
00:27:52You all love to talk about who's finished, but once that chair turns around,
00:27:58you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:28:02You'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... I don't think I've ever had a kid tell me I was done for.
00:28:12You've got guts. I'll give you that.
00:28:16But guts aren't gonna help you if you piss me off.
00:28:21Now...
00:28:22Let me tell you what happens when your little husband tries to con his way into the Whitmore group.
00:28:34Oh, this is exciting, but 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.
00:28:45You...
00:28:47Turn that damn chair around right now, or I'm gonna do it myself.
00:28:51No, Mr. West, please! You can't!
00:28:54Why the hell not?
00:28:56They deserve it.
00:28:58The only thing I can't understand is why everyone is acting so scared!
00:29:03You know, they actually told me to apologize.
00:29:05Apologize?
00:29:07To them?
00:29:08Well, since you're all so desperate to meet them...
00:29:15Sebastian?
00:29:17Mind saying hello?
00:29:19Suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:29:21That voice sounds so familiar.
00:29:24No, it can't be!
00:29:26Stop pretending! Turn that chair around!
00:29:38Take care!
00:29:48Is that supposed to scare me?
00:29:49I turned the chair, so now what?
00:29:52No.
00:29:53No way.
00:29:55You wanted to see me, James West?
00:29:59Mr. Whitmore.
00:30:01Dad, 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.
00:30:19But you?
00:30:19You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:30:24Don'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, I'll...
00:30:35He'll kill you both.
00:30:37So get out of that chair, cowboy,
00:30:39before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:30:42Shut up.
00:30:49Dad, why are you shaking?
00:30:51Oh, I get it.
00:30:53You're going to kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:30:56Perfect.
00:30:57Do it.
00:30:59You two are dead.
00:31:02You see my dad's hands?
00:31:04They'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.
00:31:17My father fears no one.
00:31:19And if they're trembling,
00:31:21it's because he's about to fire every last one of you.
00:31:25You 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.
00:31:39Dad, are you done digging yet?
00:31:41Can we go ahead and deal with these nobodies?
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:47Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:31:48I'm dealing with you!
00:32:04Dad!
00:32:06You fool!
00:32:07Do you not know what you've done?
00:32:10Me?
00:32:11They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:32:14Shut it!
00:32:16And apologize to them right now!
00:32:20Apologize to them?
00:32:21Mr. West, they assaulted your daughter.
00:32:24Why would we apologize to them?
00:32:30You brainless idiot!
00:32:34Do you not know who that is?
00:32:36You can't do this!
00:32:37I 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!
00:32:54PhD!
00:33:03What are you doing?
00:33:05This is my son's celebration!
00:33:07There'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!
00:33:21I apologize for my idiot kid!
00:33:26Please, sir, forgive us!
00:33:29Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:30Please forgive us!
00:33:31Do you want to take my family to 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!
00:33:50No!
00:33:50No!
00:33:51No!
00:33:51No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:52He's not Sebastian!
00:33:54That is just some gigolo that she hired!
00:33:57Dad!
00:33:58Dad, this is a trick, right?
00:34:00This is just some joke!
00:34:01You idiot!
00:34:03You have ruined the West's name!
00:34:07Now get our roomies and beg him for forgiveness!
00:34:11So that really is Sebastian?
00:34:13Mr. Whitmore, I am so sorry!
00:34:22Please forgive me!
00:34:23I didn't know who you were!
00:34:24Please 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!
00:34:31James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:34:34Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is!
00:34:38No, sir!
00:34:39I am sorry!
00:34:41My daughter is young!
00:34:43She's stupid and she does not represent me!
00:34:47You're right, she doesn't!
00:34:49But you do!
00:34:51And that's the problem!
00:34:52You're fired!
00:34:54No, please, sir!
00:34:55Don't!
00:34:56So 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?
00:35:11No, you've got it wrong!
00:35:13I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian, I'm untouchable because I always was!
00:35:18Seven years, Daniel, and you never once asked who I was!
00:35:24You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving!
00:35:29I, Dr. Prescott, we fast-tracked you for talent!
00:35:32Yes, your academic record is impressive, but here at Whitmore, we hire up for integrity!
00:35:38And you failed that test!
00:35:41Your 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, I'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...
00:35:57Sebastian Whitmore!
00:36:00You have gone too far!
00:36:08You have gone too far!
00:36:10Madam Whitmore!
00:36:11Madam Whitmore!
00:36:12Madam Whitmore!
00:36:17Grandma...
00:36:18Don't you dare call me that!
00:36:21The way you have defied this family!
00:36:27You've really outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.
00:36:30Grandma told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell, and what do you do, huh?
00:36:34Ghost us, and then strut back in here and try to fire people?
00:36:38No, about 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.
00:36:55Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:36:57They 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.
00:37:05Where it is, the family's at war, Grandma prefers Winston.
00:37:12Don't overstep, Winston.
00:37:14I'm still the acting CEO. Staffing decisions are mine.
00:37:17If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:37:22Sebastian.
00:37:23James has given decades to this company.
00:37:26And his termination is not happening.
00:37:29Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:37:31I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:37:35And 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.
00:37:53So, we must garner her favor.
00:37:58And Dr. Prescott, he is just the golden boy that she is looking for.
00:38:05So, he stays for Whitmore.
00:38:10You got that?
00:38:11Yes.
00:38:16Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:38:20Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:38:24That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:38:28Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia. I'm already...
00:38:30I have made my decision and it will not change!
00:38:35No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.
00:38:40He helped me once.
00:38:42I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.
00:38:45Hey 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 US partner.
00:38:58Perfect.
00:38:59Make sure it's loud.
00:39:04I'm gonna give my husband a surprise.
00:39:06Sebastian, 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.
00:39:23Would you 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.
00:39:34If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying breaks?
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.
00:39:50What 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.
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.
00:40:14Shut up, Daniel.
00:40:16One more word and I'll shatter your jaw.
00:40:18You see that? He'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.
00:40:31That'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. Sebastian and I started out as pretenders, but we're not pretending anymore.
00:40:42And what are you playing at?
00:40:47Sebastian Whitmore?
00:40:49Are you kidding me?
00:40:57For real?
00:40:58Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
00:41:01Are you out of your mind?
00:41:06You're doubling down on this circus.
00:41:08It'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.
00:41:26Do 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?
00:41:37Eleanor, 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.
00:41:46I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune, I'm saying yes to you.
00:41:50Just as you are.
00:41:56Then, Eleanor, I say yes to you.
00:42:02I will marry you.
00:42:05There.
00:42:08Here's my wife now.
00:42:10Anyone got a problem with that?
00:42:23Well done, Sebastian.
00:42:24So what? You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:42:31I see now my word means nothing to you anymore.
00:42:35So let me make this clear.
00:42:39I am suspending Sebastian from all duties as CEO of the Whitmore Group.
00:42:46Grandma, you can't be serious. I've already secured an investment from the Thunder Circle. I-
00:42:53Stop calling me that.
00:42:56The moment you proposed to that woman, you made your choice over the family.
00:43:00And this is only the beginning.
00:43:03Tomorrow's gala will honor Lady Thunder, and the family received invite-only tickets from Sylvia, who you betrayed.
00:43:11And you will attend, and you will pacify Sylvia, because it's your last chance.
00:43:16And if you fail, you can go pack your things and move out of our family.
00:43:25And I know you've been chasing investments behind our back.
00:43:37But 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. I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle. The deal's done.
00:43:48Confirmation?
00:43:50Talk is cheap. Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:43:56Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received the signed contract yet.
00:44:00See?
00:44:02How 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 fiancƩ?
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.
00:44:34What? Comes from where?
00:44:37Is that true? The Thunder Circle wrote my son the letter?
00:44:41According to Sylvia, Lady Thunder has a soft spot for Polish scholars. Tomorrow'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.
00:45:01The Thunder Circle gave their word. They wouldn't back up.
00:45:05Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:45:07Yes, sir.
00:45:08Hey, relax. I said they'd invest in you in Slowbo.
00:45:16Really? A backrooms nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:45:22We'll see who's laughing tomorrow. And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:45:33You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:45:36You are not invited. But we are.
00:45:40You'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:45:43Tomorrow? You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband. Be 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.
00:45:54Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:45:59Oh, so I'm the gold digger now?
00:46:02Of course! You're cleaning Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:46:06But not even he can support you now.
00:46:09Forget 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.
00:46:18Keep you alive.
00:46:21Let's go.
00:46:24I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle, you still feel this high.
00:46:38Hey, don't listen to them. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:46:44Relax, Mr. Whitmore. I got this. Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:46:50Yes, ma'am. I get it. You're the dangerous one.
00:46:55But the Thunder Circle, the Caldwell family, they're a lot to handle.
00:47:01So what?
00:47:03So, tomorrow I'll sign the deal. I'll secure everything.
00:47:06Because 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, alright?
00:47:21So, my wife, shall we move to the next step?
00:47:27Let's get married.
00:47:28Let's get married.
00:47:44Navy Thunder.
00:47:45Navy 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 finalized.
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 the news.
00:48:13One is Prince Amir of the Diamond Magnate, and the other is General Vereda.
00:48:17They're outside. Should I let him in?
00:48:19Fingerman?
00:48:25Lady Thunder.
00:48:27Lady Thunder.
00:48:29Please.
00:48:33So, how have you been? Your business is good?
00:48:36Yes, Lady Thunder. And thank you. Your support doing my toughest year meant everything. My weapons empire now spans five continents.
00:48:48Impressive. And you, Amir?
00:48:51As usual, I'm doing well. Without your backing, I wouldn't be where I am, leaving my country with stability.
00:48:58It's good to hear. So can I expect both of you at the gala tomorrow?
00:49:01Of 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.
00:49:19What happened?
00:49:20Well, in the past few years, they've been expanding aggressively. Crushing competitors left and right.
00:49:30I thought they were acting with your approval, so I... I didn't intervene.
00:49:35No, I never authorized any of that.
00:49:41Seems I underestimated how far they've gone.
00:49:43This ends now. They will answer for everything that they've done.
00:49:51Well, then tomorrow should be... entertaining.
00:49:58I can't.
00:50:00Let's shake the world together.
00:50:03Cheers.
00:50:04Sebastian?
00:50:21Sebastian?
00:50:23Hey. Just checking in. I wanted to see if you're free tomorrow.
00:50:27What's going on?
00:50:28Well, the gala's tomorrow and, uh, I had a few dresses made for you.
00:50:33A 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?
00:50:44Or 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.
00:50:59She won't be seeing anyone today.
00:51:01Uh, Mr. Lee, I just need to confirm about the investment.
00:51:05Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:06Lady Thunder has a high level of belief in you.
00:51:09You'll get your answer at the gala.
00:51:11Thank you, Mr. Lee.
00:51:26Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:35Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:40THE VIEW OF THE UNITED ROW
00:51:46Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:49The job is a great team.
00:51:51Hmm, tonight is the gala. Luckily Sylvia introduced us to her brother Ravine. He owns the most
00:52:08exclusive boutique in the city. Even celebrities come here and still leave empty-handed. Unbelievable!
00:52:16Mr. Caldwell, you really shouldn't have. Every piece in here costs at least six figures.
00:52:23Well, it is worth every penny if it gains Lady Thunder's attention. Pick out anything you want in the store.
00:52:32Thank you! And your sister too. Dr. Prescott, you will be representing both the Whitmore and
00:52:40Caldwell families at the gala do help us gain Lady Thunder's favor. Absolutely. That's my boy!
00:52:50PhD perfect! And maybe about to become Lady Thunder's future partner? My boy, let's be honest.
00:53:00Next to Lady Thunder? That girl Eleanor? Even Margaret? They're nothing! If she notices you
00:53:08and you end up marrying her, you'd rule! You have got to be kidding me. Eleanor!
00:53:23Well, 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.
00:53:35Sebastian brought you to play dress up. Adorable.
00:53:43Too bad this dress costs more than you may hear.
00:53:46Who is she, Sebastian? I thought you were still with my sister?
00:53:51And you are? You seriously don't know? This is Sylvia Caldwell's brother?
00:53:58How shameless. First, you stole Sylvia Caldwell's fiancƩ and now you're shopping like you belong here?
00:54:06Wait, so what?
00:54:09Poor Avian, you didn't know. This gold digger cons Sebastian to marrying her. She's pretending to be Mrs. Whitmore.
00:54:18What? 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. Your wife? In my store? I have every right to throw you both out.
00:54:37Her first. Oh yeah? Let me make it easy for you. We'll take everything. Every dress, every necklace,
00:54:44every damn shoe in this place. At the end of this day, the store will be mine.
00:54:51Wow, Eleanor. What did it take? Two days to hook him? Seriously, Sebastian, you're giving up Sylvia.
00:55:03For her? What's the appeal?
00:55:08Maybe it's a little bit better in bed now.
00:55:12Oh, Whitmore. You don't get to speak about my wife, ever.
00:55:16Mr. 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.
00:55:30Surpass me?
00:55:31Yes, my son Daniel. He is about to marry the most powerful woman alive. Lady Thunder herself.
00:55:42What? 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?
00:56:04What? Because I'm Lady Thunder.
00:56:09Chairwoman of the Thunder Circle. And you? I mean, you've lost the right to even dream of standing by my side.
00:56:17You? Lady Thunder.
00:56:26Okay, 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 if you can't.
00:56:37You bitch. You break into my store spouting delusions?
00:56:44I don't know.
00:56:55Adam, I'd like you to buy up every Caldwell Boutique worldwide. I want the brand under my name.
00:57:02What? 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 clog 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. Can we call security and drag them out of here before she brings all of us down?
00:57:42If 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. 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.
00:58:34Well, Vivian, looks like I own the shop now. You're no longer welcome here, so leave
00:58:40before I have the guards escort you out. What? 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. Guards. Remove them.
00:59:02Daniel, 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 store?
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.
00:59:50I can't tell Sebastian everything. Not yet. Not until the gala.
01:00:05Back when I was working in Africa, I met her.
01:00:07You met Lady Thunder?
01:00:10Yes. She visited one of the shelters. We spoke, so I reached out to her just now and asked for help.
01:00:20Why didn't you tell me you knew her before?
01:00:22Look, I'm sorry. This is great. I mean, if Lady Thunder's on your side,
01:00:27there is no way Sylvia's gonna lay a hand on you tonight.
01:00:32Sounds like you really don't want to see me get hurt.
01:00:35Of course not. You're my wife. 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.
01:00:48That's the first time a man's ever said that to me.
01:01:01But tonight, after the gala, it's official. Public. 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,
01:01:32and 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. 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.
01:02:13You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:18You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:20This is the Thunder Circle return gallery. As 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?
01:02:42Everyone, gather around. I have a little joke to tell you.
01:02:49Now 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, 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. And now he's just another doughy boy who got
01:03:14tricked by the wiles of a cheap hole.
01:03:17He offended the Caldwell family? He's dead now.
01:03:21You hear that, Sebastian? Doesn't that make you feel pathetic?
01:03:28You shut your mouth or I'll break that smug little jaw of yours.
01:03:31Don't do it. But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:03:38And you, this poor excuse for a wife. 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!
01:03:50You bitch!
01:04:02You come to me, Munston. 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 did 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 the 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.
01:04:57Sebastian.
01:05:00I'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.
01:05:39They want our assets, our name, and when they're done sucking us dry,
01:05:43Wilmore 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.
01:05:58Sylvia 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.
01:06:09And Sylvia is already on her way.
01:06:12Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this game.
01:06:16If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:06:21You're right. We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now.
01:06:25Do 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? Sniffing up the wrong trail.
01:06:44What 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. Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:03She's out of her mind. The 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.
01:07:13But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:07:16Prove it.
01:07:18But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:07:21I am...
01:07:21This 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
01:07:39every Rev. 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.
01:08:05She has made a career out of culling into powerful people. She's dangerous.
01:08:12A conniving parasite.
01:08:15You have offended the heir of the Caldwell family,
01:08:19and now you're trying to drag us down with you?
01:08:22You ruined the Alliance.
01:08:25And 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.
01:08:38You arrogant lunatic! Who are you to talk shit about the Caldwells?
01:08:43I'm just stating the facts.
01:08:53That'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.
01:09:18Thank God you're here.
01:09:19Seriously, Winston?
01:09:20One girl. When you crumble?
01:09:23Pathetic. Move!
01:09:29So, you found the one.
01:09:31First you steal.
01:09:34Then you get our stores.
01:09:36And fire my brother.
01:09:37Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:09:41Why do I have to choose either?
01:09:44Are you that rattled?
01:09:46Good.
01:09:47Let's see how brave you are.
01:09:48Sylvia, don't.
01:09:53Sebastian, you're my fiancƩ and you're defending her?
01:09:56I never knew you were married.
01:09:58I came here tonight to talk. To build something better.
01:10:01Better?
01:10:03You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:10:10Fire. You want something better?
01:10:15Neil.
01:10:16Both of you, and beg me for it.
01:10:23That'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.
01:10:33You promised the back I'll rise into the thundership home.
01:10:37You promised Sebastian would marry me.
01:10:39Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:10:41Do you hear?
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.
01:10:51What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:10:53Too proud to kneel?
01:10:54Looks like you're the one who should be the man.
01:11:09Oh my god!
01:11:10She's insane! She's totally insane!
01:11:12Oh my god!
01:11:15Sylvia?
01:11:16Are you hurt?
01:11:20Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:26You 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.
01:11:57If 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.
01:12:08I second that.
01:12:09She's a disgrace.
01:12:11She defied 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!
01:12:22No, you got it all wrong!
01:12:26Everyone saw what she did.
01:12:28You're really going to defend her?
01:12:29Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:12:31Game over.
01:12:33You breathe because I allow it.
01:12:36And when I say you're finished-
01:12:38Don't you dare.
01:12:38If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:12:42Shut up, Sebastian.
01:12:43Everyone here wants her gone.
01:12:45You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her.
01:12:48You want to ruin yourself?
01:12:50Fine.
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 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?
01:13:19General Varelli and Prince Amir?
01:13:26What are they doing here?
01:13:27This is the Thunder Circle's return gala.
01:13:30Big 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.
01:13:47Sylvia Caldwell.
01:13:49Who exalts me who you're 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,
01:14:02but don't tell me you're here to steal my credit
01:14:04to impress Lady Thunder.
01:14:06Steal credit?
01:14:09You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:14:12One more word out of you.
01:14:14And the Caldwell name is history.
01:14:15You're serious?
01:14:16Deadly.
01:14:17Deadly.
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!
01:14:29Lady 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, sabotaging our alliance.
01:14:58She'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.
01:15:18But 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!
01:15:42Stand down!
01:15:46Stand down!
01:15:48That's Adam Lee, Lady Thunder's right hand.
01:15:50He only arrives when she commands it.
01:15:53What is happening?
01:15:56Mr. Final.
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!
01:16:15For years, Lady Thunder's been running the largest charity in Africa.
01:16:21While you were polishing your shoes, she was saving children.
01:16:27That 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 the circle's billion dollar investment.
01:16:40And the system's only locked with one thing.
01:16:42Her fingerprints.
01:16:46If she is who she says she is, will unlock her.
01:16:49Yeah, let her prove it!
01:16:51She can't!
01:16:52It's all just empty words!
01:16:54On that, Eleanor.
01:16:56Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:16:59Unlock the funds right here, right now!
01:17:02Eleanor.
01:17:07Are you sure you can confirm?
01:17:08No thanks, Sebastian.
01:17:11It's time for them to see the truth.
01:17:32Highest level authorization, verified Eleanor Thunder.
01:17:36Type, CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:39One hundred billion funds activated.
01:17:43My God!
01:17:48My God!
01:17:50She is Lady Thunder, CEO 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!
01:18:05Eleanor is Lady Thunder!
01:18:08Lady Thunder!
01:18:09Lady Thunder!
01:18:13What now, Sylvia?
01:18:14What else do you have to say?
01:18:24Sylvia!
01:18:31Sylvia!
01:18:32You're the Lady Thunder!
01:18:38My father will kill me!
01:18:40Take them out.
01:18:42We'll deal with them later.
01:18:55So, Eleanor, it's true.
01:18:58You're the Lady Thunder, CEO of the Thunder Group and the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:09Does this even matter anymore?
01:19:12Of course it matters!
01:19:16I would have never broken up with you if I had known things could have been different.
01:19:22Could they have been, Daniel?
01:19:24If 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?
01:19:34No, that's not true.
01:19:43That's not true.
01:19:44It...
01:19:45All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top.
01:19:50I didn't mean anything to you.
01:19:55This, this, this...
01:19:56I don't...
01:19:57I 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.
01:20:05Eleanor, please.
01:20:13We've known each other for years.
01:20:15You've always been like a daughter to me.
01:20:18Whatever misunderstandings are between us, they can...
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?
01:20:28It was before! I didn't know! I was stupid and blind! 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.
01:21:01I wanted a fast track to power.
01:21:04Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the fall.
01:21:18Eleanor.
01:21:18Lady Thunder, you and my grandson make a perfect pair, so congratulations.
01:21:29Yes, congratulations to you both.
01:21:33Where's Sebastian?
01:21:35That's interesting. Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:21:42Well, no!
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.
01:22:04It's time I've made something that's truly mine and not in the family's shadow.
01:22:09But 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.
01:22:28I will accept whatever choice you make and respect.
01:22:38Elinor, as you can see, I'm no longer just a Whitmore or a man starting over.
01:22:54But if you'll have me, I'd like to start it with you.
01:22:58Will you stay by my side and marry me?
01:23:07Of course I will.
01:23:09And this time, as your wife, investor, and co-founder.
01:23:14I've been so fica, you know?
01:23:26Good job.
01:23:28Let's go.
01:23:29First time, when I'm open.
01:23:30I'm literally a totally guilty.
01:23:30That's not true.
01:23:31Good job.
01:23:32I'm sorry, I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:33When the world is on my shoulders.
01:23:34The world is on my shoulders.
01:23:38I love you.
01:23:39I'm sorry, you were I'm sorry.
01:23:39I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:39I'm sorry, I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:41I need the one to hold you.
01:23:42I'm sorry, I can't be the one to hold you.
