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