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.
00:00:12Wait, 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,
00:00:24and we're her first target.
00:00:27We got it.
00:00:28A hundred billion dollars.
00:00:34That's better.
00:00:35She was right.
00:00:37It was a hundred billion.
00:00:40Parker, find her.
00:00:42Find who?
00:00:43The girl from the Nairobi flight.
00:00:45Eleanor, I don't care what it takes.
00:00:47You find her.
00:00:49Understood, but what do you want with her?
00:00:53I'm going to marry her.
00:00:54Wait, what?
00:00:56I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:01:02She's the one I want.
00:01:04You self-important bitch.
00:01:11Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:12I get it, Eleanor.
00:01:14You're not upset about the breakup.
00:01:16You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:01:19Name your number.
00:01:20Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off.
00:01:23And then we're done.
00:01:25Is that what you think?
00:01:27That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:31How about a hundred grand?
00:01:37Two hundred?
00:01:38Daniel.
00:01:39Three.
00:01:40That's my final offer.
00:01:42Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:01:45Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:01:48Just take the money and go.
00:01:50Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:01:53God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:01:57And what do you mean by that?
00:01:58I mean, if you weren't selling yourself,
00:02:02how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:02:06Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:11What?
00:02:13How dare you?
00:02:14Eleanor.
00:02:15For the sake of our seven years together,
00:02:19just take the money and leave.
00:02:22Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:26He's done with you.
00:02:28Get it through your thick head.
00:02:31She's not worth your time.
00:02:34Oh, where's Margaret?
00:02:35Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:02:36Yeah.
00:02:37Said she had to handle something first.
00:02:39She'll be here soon.
00:02:40Margaret?
00:02:43Margaret.
00:02:45Daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:02:49Practically next in line, next to the bathroom.
00:02:52Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:02:56Rich, properly pedigree.
00:03:00And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:04Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:03:07You should leave.
00:03:09Trust me.
00:03:10You don't want to be here when she walks in because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:19So that's what this really is about.
00:03:21This isn't about the job.
00:03:23This is about her.
00:03:24This is about Margaret.
00:03:25At least with her, I can build something bigger.
00:03:28Really?
00:03:29Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:03:33You?
00:03:34Please.
00:03:35Please.
00:03:36So.
00:03:37You actually think you're better than me.
00:03:46Margaret, my dear.
00:03:47You're here.
00:03:48So.
00:03:49You must be Eleanor.
00:03:50Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:03:51I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:04:07Bargain bin dress, basic face.
00:04:10Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:14But don't mind her.
00:04:15She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:17She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:20So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:23I'm Margaret West, daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:30And you, you're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:35You're right.
00:04:36Unlike you, I don't need to cling to daddy's title to matter.
00:04:40Excuse me?
00:04:41You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:44Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:04:49Exactly.
00:04:50This is a ceremony for elites, not fed group.
00:04:55What the hell is going on?
00:04:57Oh, Margaret, is everything all right?
00:05:05Why don't you ask her?
00:05:07Daniel dumped her, and now she's crashing his party.
00:05:12Well, Dr. Piscot was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore herself.
00:05:16So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:20Exactly.
00:05:21Take a look around.
00:05:24These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:26This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:05:28CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:33And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:05:39I was running a charity.
00:05:41Oh, charity!
00:05:43Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:47Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:05:52Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:05:55To chase my son, hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:06:00So she's a gold digger.
00:06:02How pathetic.
00:06:03Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:10Hear that?
00:06:11This is reality.
00:06:12My son, a PhD.
00:06:14Future partner.
00:06:15And you are just the mud on his shoes.
00:06:24Now, crawl back into your cave where you came from.
00:06:29Your fairy tale is over.
00:06:31Elinor, a woman can be broke.
00:06:46Or uneducated, but delusional.
00:06:50And that's where I draw the line.
00:06:53No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:06:57Funny, Daniel.
00:06:59You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:07:01Believing in you.
00:07:03Seven years.
00:07:04Seven years of working and wearing you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:07:09And this is how it ends?
00:07:10Don't twist this.
00:07:12I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:15I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:17I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:20I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:07:22And the second you get upstairs, you drop me.
00:07:27I said I would pay you back.
00:07:29What more do you want?
00:07:31This isn't a transaction.
00:07:33That's not remorse, Daniel.
00:07:35That's cowardice wrapped up in a check.
00:07:40We're done.
00:07:41You ungrateful bitch!
00:07:54That's enough.
00:07:55I'm done with your tantrums.
00:08:01Get the fuck out of my life!
00:08:04God.
00:08:05Look at her.
00:08:06So pathetic.
00:08:08Somebody give me a towel?
00:08:10Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:08:14Lady, that's enough.
00:08:16Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:08:18You?
00:08:19You're humiliating yourself.
00:08:21Get out!
00:08:26We found Eleanor, sir.
00:08:28Where?
00:08:29She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:08:31What?
00:08:32Things are getting ugly.
00:08:33Dr. Prescott?
00:08:35Quick!
00:08:36Get to HQ now.
00:08:40You see that?
00:08:41Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:42Just leave, Eleanor.
00:08:43Before this gets worse for you.
00:08:44Worse?
00:08:45What?
00:08:46Because I dared to stand where I don't belong?
00:08:47You want to be a circus act?
00:08:48Fine.
00:08:49But don't expect me to save you when all this blows up in your face.
00:08:56Save me?
00:08:57That's rich.
00:08:58You don't have the right.
00:08:59You never did.
00:09:00Final warning.
00:09:01Walk out on your own.
00:09:02I'll security drag you out.
00:09:04Go ahead.
00:09:05Call the guards.
00:09:06But just know that I walked in here because I have every right to be here.
00:09:11And no one has the right to push me out.
00:09:13Not even Sebastian.
00:09:14Faster.
00:09:15I don't care what it takes.
00:09:16Get me to her now.
00:09:17Yes, sir.
00:09:18Eleanor.
00:09:19Do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:23Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:09:24You just insulted the mason.
00:09:25You just insulted the mason.
00:09:27You just insulted the mason.
00:09:28You just insulted the mason.
00:09:29You just insulted the mason.
00:09:30No.
00:09:31Go ahead.
00:09:32Call the guards.
00:09:33Call the guards.
00:09:34But just know that I walked in here because I have every right to be here.
00:09:35And no one has the right to push me out.
00:09:37Not even Sebastian.
00:09:38Faster.
00:09:39I don't care what it takes.
00:09:41Get me to her now.
00:09:42Yes, sir.
00:09:43Eleanor.
00:09:44Do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:46You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:09:50Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him, but you?
00:09:53You are so dead.
00:09:55In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable, but in mine, he's just a man.
00:10:01If I were you, I'd be more worried that you laid a hand on me.
00:10:05Sebastian might not be okay with that.
00:10:08God, you must really have a death wish.
00:10:11Eleanor, forget it. You're upset about the breakup, but now you're spiraling.
00:10:19Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that.
00:10:22You know, I was actually going to offer you a job as a janitor here, but after this, I don't even think you're worth that.
00:10:30You were going to recommend me for a janitor position?
00:10:33Do you know how competitive it is to work here?
00:10:36Even our security guards have degrees, and you? Never finished yours.
00:10:43So that's what you think of me?
00:10:45That's reality.
00:10:47And after everything, trust me, Eleanor.
00:10:51Whitmore has no place for you.
00:10:55I don't need your recommendation.
00:10:57And as for whether Whitmore has a place for me or not,
00:11:00why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?
00:11:03Where is she?
00:11:14Where is she?
00:11:15Conference Hall.
00:11:16It's tense.
00:11:17From what I heard, she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:11:20Dumped her.
00:11:21They broke up?
00:11:22Yeah.
00:11:23Well, I guess that saved me the trouble of stealing someone's fiance.
00:11:29What's your goal here, Eleanor?
00:11:31Seriously?
00:11:32You're trying to crash and burn in public?
00:11:34I'll tell you what it is.
00:11:36She couldn't keep you, so she's trying to drag you down with her.
00:11:40Ew.
00:11:41Pathetic.
00:11:42Ex revenge?
00:11:45Don't worry, Daniel.
00:11:46I've got you.
00:11:50Remember, Margaret's father is vice chair.
00:11:53With their support, whatever stunt you're pulling ends.
00:11:56Trust me.
00:11:57When Mr. Whitmore gets here, she'll have maybe five minutes left.
00:12:02I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.
00:12:06Honestly, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.
00:12:11Was it?
00:12:13Because when the trip comes out, you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:12:17No one can touch us now.
00:12:22Yes?
00:12:24Mr. 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.
00:12:34You hear that, everyone?
00:12:36Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son!
00:12:39This is it.
00:12:44No one can touch us now.
00:12:47You hear that, sweetheart?
00:12:49Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:12:53Get out.
00:12:56While you still have legs to walk out on.
00:12:58This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:13:03Half a million dollars.
00:13:06Half a million?
00:13:07For her?
00:13:08It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.
00:13:14Take the money, Eleanor.
00:13:15Disappear.
00:13:17This is ten times more than you'll ever see in your life.
00:13:24Be smart.
00:13:27Take it and vanish.
00:13:33You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:13:38But when you realize the truth about who I really am...
00:13:44You'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.
00:13:59Shit!
00:14:00What the hell?
00:14:01You dare humiliate me?
00:14:05So you're someone now, huh?
00:14:06Someone who's gonna change things?
00:14:08Then go ahead.
00:14:09Make your little announcement.
00:14:11But if it's bullshit, you're gonna be crawling out of here kissing every single person's shoes.
00:14:14Come on.
00:14:15This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:24This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:28She's my wife.
00:14:29Is that high status enough for you?
00:14:30Is that high status enough for you?
00:14:31Mr. Rickmore?
00:14:32Mr. Rickmore?
00:14:33I did this to you?
00:14:48Mr. Rickmore?
00:14:58They did this to you?
00:15:00It's fine.
00:15:03Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:15:09I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:15:13I meant what I said.
00:15:15Now let me take out the trash.
00:15:17And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:15:20Did you not hear me the first time?
00:15:22I'm her husband.
00:15:24This woman here, she's my wife.
00:15:28Wait, what? Mr. Whitmore married?
00:15:31But he's never, he's always kept his distance from women.
00:15:34Oh God, I'm dead. I'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.
00:15:49For what? To sleep behind his back and marry someone else?
00:15:52So she was already married.
00:15:54She was never in it for you.
00:15:55She just wanted your money.
00:15:57Was this your plan all along, Eleanor?
00:15:59Playing me while you're sleeping with another man?
00:16:02Don't twist it.
00:16:03You know exactly who betrayed him.
00:16:05She's right.
00:16:06You don't even realize what you've thrown away.
00:16:09Eleanor's a brilliant woman.
00:16:11You were never even close to being worthy of her.
00:16:14So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker?
00:16:18He has a PhD.
00:16:19He has a $30 million partner deal.
00:16:22You watch your mouth.
00:16:23Please.
00:16:24Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing and you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:16:29Let me guess, she hired you, right?
00:16:33Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband and save your pride, right?
00:16:38So would you say she hired an actor?
00:16:40Look at him.
00:16:42Designer suit, sexy look, total escort vibes.
00:16:46Exactly.
00:16:47She probably paid for the full fantasy package.
00:16:53Maybe he throws in a couple of extra services too.
00:16:57Oh God, that's Mr. Whitmore.
00:17:00She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:17:07I'm Dr. Prescott.
00:17:09Oh, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:11He probably works at some private club in Soho.
00:17:14She hired him by the hour.
00:17:16Let's not kid ourselves.
00:17:17Okay, you're not seem to understand.
00:17:19Relax, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:22This cheap street whore doesn't belong at Whitmore.
00:17:27But since Eleanor brought him, we don't have to worry about it.
00:17:31Really, Eleanor?
00:17:32You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:17:35I mean, it just screams pathetic.
00:17:38Exactly.
00:17:39You pathetic social climber.
00:17:41Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.
00:17:44Wait, please stop, okay?
00:17:46Uncle Thomas, what?
00:17:47I've gotten into you.
00:17:48Why are you so fussy?
00:17:50It's just a washed up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:17:55Don't worry about it.
00:17:56Look, I will handle it, okay?
00:17:59You want to keep up the fantasy?
00:18:01Good.
00:18:02But before the night ends, both of you will be finished.
00:18:07So you think this is pretend?
00:18:10Still clinging to the drama.
00:18:15No offense, pretty boy, but if she can afford you, so can I.
00:18:24What's the rate?
00:18:25Whatever she's giving you, I'll give you ten times the amount.
00:18:29If you strip for the room.
00:18:32Oh, God, no, no.
00:18:36They're dead.
00:18:37They are also dead.
00:18:39Say that again.
00:18:41You heard him.
00:18:43Ten times your rate.
00:18:45Ooh, and let Uncle Thomas have a peek.
00:18:48I don't think he's seen a male stripper before.
00:18:50No, no, no.
00:18:52I want no part of this.
00:18:53Oh, come on.
00:18:54Don't be shy.
00:18:55Just enjoy The Bachelor Show.
00:18:57You're gonna give us a twirl, pretty boy.
00:19:03Daniel, Margaret, you have no idea the line you just crossed.
00:19:08Then stop faking.
00:19:10If you're gonna play pretend, you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:19:15All right, cowboy.
00:19:18Final offer.
00:19:20Ten times.
00:19:23Name your price.
00:19:26You watch your mouth.
00:19:33How dare you have my son!
00:19:39Baby, are you okay?
00:19:41I'm gonna kill that bastard!
00:19:43Are you insane?
00:19:44Do you have any idea who you just laid your hands on?
00:19:47I don't care who you are.
00:19:48You don't talk about me or my wife like that ever again.
00:19:51You two are dead.
00:19:53You let a cowboy punch a senior candidate, no 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?
00:20:08Let her talk.
00:20:10I'm interested to see who she thinks I should be afraid of.
00:20:15My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:20:19Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:20:22And you two?
00:20:24Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:20:25That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:20:26Who do you think you are?
00:20:27No one else dares sit here.
00:20:29I think it kind of suits me.
00:20:30Thomas?
00:20:31You recognize the seat?

00:21:35Maybe I'll consider not ruining your life.
00:21:40Beg you?
00:21:42Yeah.
00:21:43Get on your knees, bark, and crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.
00:21:48That's the price you pay when you defy us.
00:21:51You hear that, Eleanor?
00:21:53You and your little boy can bark together.
00:21:56How romantic.
00:21:57You're playing with fire.
00:21:59No, sweetheart.

00:22:18I am hitting that bitch.
00:22:19Margaret!
00:22:20You should apologize.
00:22:21What?
00:22:22You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:23It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:24Just think about it.
00:22:25Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:26You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:27Yes.

00:23:00I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:23:02You don't know what you're going to step into.
00:23:07I am calling my father and we will see who crawls away when that happens.

00:35:26you never stopped to see who you were leaving i dr prescott we fast-tracked you for talent

00:35:39test your offer is dead what wait mr whitmore please my son has been working his entire life for this
00:35:48place i'll throw him out my decision is final no amount of begging is going to change it

00:36:06you have gone too far
00:36:11madame whitmore
00:36:12grandma don't you dare call me that the way you have to find this family
00:36:26you've really outdone yourself this time sebastian grandma told you to marry sylvia
00:36:31caldwell and what do you do huh ghost us and then strut back in here and try to fire people
00:36:37about the engagement i'm you forgot who runs this place you might have the ceo title but grandma
00:36:45built the whitmore group from the ground up and as far as dr prescott and mr west you don't have
00:36:50the authority to fire them did you hear that daniel they were getting fired but who is that guy why is
00:37:00he talking back to sebastian that's winston sebastian's big brother word is the family
00:37:07is at war grandma prefers winston don't overstep winston i'm still the acting ceo staffing decisions
00:37:16are mine if grandma doesn't say otherwise little brother sebastian james has given decades to this
00:37:25company and his termination is not happening thank you madam whitmore i appreciate you standing up for me
00:37:33and as for him he stays
00:37:41you do not have the authority to touch him grandma he thunder circle funds all of the top scholars of
00:37:47the world and their chairwoman lady thunder arrives tomorrow we must garner her favor
00:37:57and dr prescott he is just the golden boy that she is looking for so he stays for whitmore you got that
00:38:15yes now let's focus on what matters your marriage to sylvia caldwell
00:38:23that marriage will lock us into the thunder circle grandma i'm not marrying sylvia i'm already
00:38:32i have made my decision and it will not change
00:38:37no wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry
00:38:41he helped me once i guess now it's my turn to return the favor
00:38:45hey thunder whitmore's proposal has been approved we'll go public at tomorrow's gala
00:38:54whitmore we are first official u.s partner perfect make sure it's loud
00:39:04i'm gonna give my husband a surprise
00:39:05i'm gonna give my husband a little bit of a surprise
00:39:11Sebastian i know you're upset but your marriage to sylvia connects us to the callback family
00:39:18and to the thunder circle that is the future you'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else
00:39:26i believe in building things myself not chasing shortcuts shortcuts it's called strategy if the
00:39:35road to power is already paved why waste time laying breaks
00:39:42and i disagree madam that's not strategy that's fear you can't force sebastian to marry someone else
00:39:49who the hell is she doing oh god it's her again doesn't she ever get tired of humiliating herself
00:39:57who let the trash in someone needs to take her back out to the curb who is she madam whitmore this
00:40:04is eleanor my ex she stalked me here and then latched onto sebastian pretending to be his wife just
00:40:11to oppose your engagement plans shut up daniel one more word and i'll shatter your jaw do you see
00:40:17that he's panicking madam those two are lying to your face that girl eleanor she just latched onto
00:40:28sebastian to get herself out of trouble that's just part of their scheme sebastian is using this little
00:40:34act to get out of his engagement with sylvia yes sebastian and i started out as pretend but we're
00:40:41not pretending anymore and what are you playing at sebastian whitmore
00:40:57for real
00:41:00oh you gotta be shitting me
00:41:04are you out of your mind you're doubling down on this circus
00:41:09it's hilarious that you actually think he is going to marry you
00:41:15so you're trying to take advantage now even if sebastian's in trouble there's no way he'd stoop
00:41:19to marrying a lowlife like you sebastian if you say yes to her now you will lose everything
00:41:28do you even know what you're doing of course you propose to me i'm just returning the favor
00:41:33what's the matter sebastian are you scared ellenor when i proposed to you i had everything and you
00:41:39turned me down but now that i'm suddenly in trouble it's a yes exactly i'm not saying yes to your title

00:51:44so
00:51:45Tonight 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.
00:52:16Unbelievable. Mr. Cogwell, you really shouldn't have. Every piece in here costs at least six figures.
00:52:24Well, it is worth every penny if it gains Lady Thunder's attention. Pick out anything you want
00:52:31in the store. Thank you. And your sister too. Dr. Prescott, you will be representing both the
00:52:39Whitmore and Caldwell families at the gala. Do help us gain Lady Thunder's favor. Absolutely.
00:52:47That's my boy. PhD perfect. And maybe about to become Lady Thunder's future partner?
00:52:56My boy, let's be honest. Next to Lady Thunder, that girl Eleanor, even Margaret, they're nothing.
00:53:07If she notices you and you end up marrying her, you'd rule.
00:53:15You have got to be kidding me. Eleanor.
00:53:19Well, 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.
00:53:36Sebastian brought you to play dress-up. Adorable.
00:53:43Too bad this dress costs more than you make in here.
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?
00:53:59How shameless. First you stole Sylvia Caldwell's fiance and now you're shopping like you belong here?
00:54:05Wait, so what?
00:54:09Poor Avian, you didn't know. This gold digger cons Sebastian the marrying her.
00:54:15She'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.
00:54:31Your wife? In my store. I have every right to throw you both out. Her first.
00:54:38Oh 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.
00:54:48Wow, Eleanor. What did it take? Two days to hook him? Seriously, Miss Ashton?
00:55:00You're giving up Sylvia. For her? What's the appeal?
00:55:05Maybe it's a little bit better in bed now.
00:55:11Oh, you don't get to speak about my wife ever.
00:55:15Mr. Whitmore, you're not even CEO anymore.
00:55:19Just because I'm not sitting in the chair doesn't mean I'm powerless.
00:55:21Please. My son has a PhD. One day, he's going to surpass you.
00:55:29Surpass me?
00:55:30Yes, my son Daniel. He is about to marry the most powerful woman alive. Lady Thunder herself.
00:55:43What? I'm sorry, what?
00:55:43So, you regret it now? You left my son and now he's going to marry the woman that could crush you both.
00:55:52Actually, 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?
00:56:04Because I'm Lady Thunder.
00:56:09Chairwoman of the Thunder Circle. And you? I mean, you've lost the right to even
00:56:15dream of standing by my side.
00:56:22You? 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, a Lady Thunder stuff thing we could throw around like that. You can't.
00:56:37You bitch. You break into my store, spouting delusions.
00:56:55Adam, I'd like you to buy up every Caldwell boutique worldwide. I want the brand under my name.
00:57:01What? Do you even know how much it costs to buy my store?
00:57:06Eleanor, I get it. The breakup scrambled your brain, but pretending to be Lady Thunder?
00:57:14You're gonna get poor Sebastian killed.
00:57:16So 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.
00:57:31Enough of the circus.
00:57:34Can we call security and drag them out of here before she brings all of us down?
00:57:38If 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.
00:58:03Sylvia?
00:58:03Yes, I'm handling it.
00:58:05What? They bought it.
00:58:11The Thunder Circle has acquired all Caldwell boutiques.
00:58:16What? 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 this shop now. You're no longer welcome here. So leave
00:58:41before I have the guards escort you out.
00:58:43What?
00:58:43You bitch.
00:58:46You 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.
00:58:53Do you want to join me?
00:58:58No.
00:58:58No.
00:58:58Guards, remove them.
00:59:10Daniel, could she really be leading Thunder?
00:59:13Absolutely 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.
00:59:32So you're saying she used Lady Thunder's sympathy to get this?
00:59:37Exactly. She's nothing but a side piece with great timing.
00:59:43But tonight, I'll expose her. Tonight, her little luck ends.
00:59:52Eleanor, you're not seriously telling me the real Lady Thunder.
00:59:55I can't tell Sebastian everything. Not yet. Not until the gala.
01:00:05Back when I was working in Africa, I met her.
01:00:08You 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 did you tell me you knew her before?
01:00:22Look, I'm sorry.
01:00:24This is great. I mean, if Lady Thunder's on your side,
01:00:27there is no way Sylvia's going to 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.
01:00:40And you stood behind me when everything fell apart.
01:00:43Tonight, I'm going to do everything it takes to protect you.
01:00:46It's my only job now.
01:00:48That's the first time a man's ever said that to me.
01:00:54But tonight, after the gala, it's official.
01:01:06Public.
01:01:08That doesn't scare you?
01:01:10I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:01:12I'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, and that makes
01:01:32you next in line for CEO.
01:01:35Well, let's be honest. Sebastian has never been CEO material.
01:01:41My grandmother saw that.
01:01:42And so did the board.
01:01:44You've got the support of the Caldwell family.
01:01:46And their ties to the circle aren't small.
01:01:48And tonight, Lady Thunder will be announcing who's next in line for the billion dollar investment.
01:01:55And you, Whitmore's golden boy, look like you've got it locked in.
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.
01:02:21This is the Thunder Circle Return Gallo.
01:02:23As a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:02:26Well, you should be at Sylvia's Suite, not parading around here like you still belong at the top.
01:02:31And you, since when did Gutter Trash just show up?
01:02:36Eleanor's my wife.
01:02:38You don't get to speak to her that way.
01:02:39Your wife?
01:02:41Did you just sing that out loud?
01:02:42Everyone, gather round.
01:02:46I 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.
01:02:59But instead, he married her.
01:03:02A gold digger.
01:03:05Now, isn't that hilarious?
01:03:07It's true, Sebastian used to be a force.
01:03:12And now, he's just another doughy boy who got tripped by the wiles of a cheap hole.
01:03:16He offended the Caldwell family.
01:03:19He's dead now.
01:03:21You hear that, Sebastian?
01:03:23Doesn't that make you feel pathetic?
01:03:28You shut your mouth or I'll break that smug little jaw of yours.
01:03:33But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:03:38And you, this poor excuse for life.
01:03:42I'll deal with you first.
01:03:43I'd like to see what kind of idiot thinks they can deal with me here.
01:03:48Don't you run your mouth!
01:03:58You bitch!
01:04:02You come to me, Winston.
01:04:04You bastard.
01:04:04I'm your brother!
01:04:07You're gonna let this bitch humiliate me in front of everyone, huh?
01:04:10Sebastian, 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.
01:04:24You just humiliated your entire family in front of everyone.
01:04:29You chose a bitch over blood.
01:04:33That's fine.
01:04:35As far as I'm concerned, you are exiled from the Whitmore family.
01:04:38You don't have the authority to exile me from Whitmore.
01:04:41He does not, but I do.
01:04:54Grandma.
01:04:56Sebastian.
01:04:59I'm going to ask you this for the last time.
01:05:02Are you going to marry Sylvia?
01:05:06No, grandmother.
01:05:07I never loved her.
01:05:09I didn't ask you if you loved her. I asked, will you marry her?
01:05:14No. I won't divorce Eleanor.
01:05:17You're going to risk the future of our family for this useless woman?
01:05:23You might be my grandmother, but you don't get to insult my wife.
01:05:27Do you 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. Sylvia promised.
01:06:00And if Sebastian agrees, the Caldwells will take us deep into the inner core of the Thunder Circle.
01:06:06You're sure?
01:06:07Absolutely. That's what this whole night is for.
01:06:09And Sylvia is already on her way.
01:06:12Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this gay law.
01:06:16If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:06:19You're right. We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now. Do you hear that? Do you see what we have at stake?
01:06:30What are you laughing at?
01:06:32All of this. You're ready to sell Sebastian off for a shot at winning Sylvia's attention. And you call that a strategy?
01:06:42I'm sniffing up the wrong trail.
01:06:45What do you mean?
01:06:45What I mean is if you're looking for investment from the Thunder Circle, you don't need the Caldwells. You need me.
01:06:53What are you saying?
01:06:58Don't be ridiculous. Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:02She's out of her mind. The Thunder Circle is untouchable.
01:07:07How does someone like her say something like that?
01:07:09You're all looking down on me because you don't know who I really am. But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:07:16Prove it. But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:07:21I am...
01:07:22This isn't about her lies. She's going to bring down the entire Whitmore family legacy.
01:07:27Mrs. Whitmore, you may not know this, but yesterday Sebastian and Eleanor aggressively acquired every Ravine Caldwell boutique.
01:07:42Sebastian, is this true?
01:07:45The boutiques were taken over by Lady Thunder. Eleanor just asked for help.
01:07:50How did she know?
01:07:51Because they played the charity card. Years in Africa, nannying kids, all of it was to gain the Lady Thunder's favor.
01:08:00Exactly. No wonder she seduced Sebastian, turned him against his own family.
01:08:05She has made a career out of clinging into powerful people. She's dangerous.
01:08:12A conniving parasite. You 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. And now you show up here and crash the Thunder Circle Gala.
01:08:29We should make her crawl and beg for forgiveness.
01:08:33The ones who've been trying to crush you are the Caldwells. They should beg for forgiveness.
01:08:38You, you're a good lunatic. Who are you to talk shit about the Caldwells?
01:08:43I'm just stating the facts.
01:08:45You're amazing.
01:08:48Facts, huh?
01:08:55That's Sylvia Caldwell. Things are about to get ugly.
01:08:58Eleanor's finished. Once you cross the Caldwells, you're out.
01:09:03Is that the famous Caldwell heiress?
01:09:06My son, you could do worse than marrying her.
01:09:09Mother!
01:09:10All right, all right. You were made for Lady Thunder. That's the one you deserve.
01:09:16Sylvia.
01:09:18Thank God you're here.
01:09:19Seriously, Winston? One girl, when you crumble, that it could. Move!
01:09:29So, Eleanor, first you steal her. Then you get our stores and fire my brother.
01:09:37Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:09:41Why do I have to choose either?
01:09:43Are you that rattled?
01:09:46Good. Let's see how brave you are.
01:09:49Sylvia, don't.
01:09:53Sebastian, you're my fiancé and you're defending her?
01:09:56I never even married. I came here tonight to talk, to build something better.
01:10:01Better. Better.
01:10:03You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:10:10Fine. You want something better?
01:10:15Neil.
01:10:17Both of you, and beg me for it.
01:10:19I'm sorry, that's enough.
01:10:23Enough! I've only gotten started. By the time tonight's gala ends, Whitmore won't even exist.
01:10:30Miss Caldwell, you can't do this.
01:10:33You promised to back our rise into the thundership home.
01:10:36You promised Sebastian would marry me. Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:10:41Do you hear?
01:10:42Neil! Marry her! Don't drag this family down with you.
01:10:46You're trying to doom us all, you ungrateful bastard!
01:10:50What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:10:53Too proud to kneel?
01:10:56Looks like you're the one who should be kneeling.
01:10:59Oh my god!
01:11:10She's insane! She's totally insane!
01:11:15Sylvia, are you hurt?
01:11:20Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:21You bitch! No one humiliates me like this!
01:11:30Oh, well there's a first sign for everything. I'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. And anyone who stands with her becomes my enemy.
01:11:56This is it. If I stand with Sylvia now, I'll win her and Lady Thunder's favor.
01:12:01Sylvia's right!
01:12:03Eleanor defied Lady Thunder. She deserves to be punished.
01:12:07I second that. She's a disgrace.
01:12:10She defied everything we stand for. We must punish her.
01:12:14Punish her!
01:12:25No, you got it all wrong!
01:12:26Everyone saw what she did. You're really going to defend her?
01:12:29Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:12:31Game over. You breathe because I allow it. When I say you're finished...
01:12:38Don't you dare. If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:12:41Shut up, Sebastian! Everyone here wants her gone!
01:12:45You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her?
01:12:48You want to ruin yourself? Fine. But 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. You twisted the truth so quickly.
01:13:02But you picked the wrong opponent.
01:13:03All of you? You're just insects in my eyes.
01:13:07Still mouthing off? I'll send you straight to hell.
01:13:16And who exactly are you planning on sending to hell?
01:13:18General Varelli and Prince Amir? What are they doing here?
01:13:27This is the Thunder Circle's Return Gala. Big names were expected.
01:13:32Too bad for her. She's even more screwed now.
01:13:35What are you doing here, Varelli? We were just about to take out the trash.
01:13:41So, unless you plan on interfering with Thunder Circle Justice, I suggest you let us finish.
01:13:47Sylvia Caldwell. Who excited were you planning to kill?
01:13:53Her. She attacked me in public.
01:13:57She disrupted the gallop.
01:14:00Look, I know we've had our differences, but don't tell me you're here to steal my credit
01:14:04to impress Lady Thunder.
01:14:06Steal credit? You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:14:11One more word out of you, and the Caldwell name is history.
01:14:15You're serious?
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.
01:14:28Lady Thunder!
01:14:28What? Lady Thunder, don't be ridiculous.
01:14:38She's just a gold digger, for God's sake.
01:14:42Exactly! She's a broke hooker. This is just another bluff.
01:14:47She's pulling the same stunts. Okay? She already used Lady Thunder to crush the Caldwell stores,
01:14:54and now she's doing the same thing. Sabotaging our alliance. She's a fraud.
01:14:59You all must be delusional. Fine. If you want to stand with a liar, you're all as good as dead.
01:15:06Now I understand just how bold your entire family has become.
01:15:10Do you really think that Morelli, Amir, and the entire Thunder Circle couldn't erase your family
01:15:15over her? The real Lady Thunder could. But tonight,
01:15:19she's going to destroy you and all your fake pretenders.
01:15:27Weapons up!
01:15:32Lay a finger on her, and I promise you, none of you will be alive to regret this.
01:15:37You won't want to defend a liar!
01:15:42Stand down!
01:15:42Stand down!
01:15:48That's Adam Lee, Lady Thunder's right hand.
01:15:50He only arrives when she commands it. What is happening?
01:15:56Mr. Lee, finally, your Lady Thunder assistant, tell them this woman is lying. Tell them she's not Lady
01:16:04Thunder!
01:16:05Right! She's just my ex. How could she be anything? Lady Thunder manages portfolios worth billions.
01:16:12She babysits orphans. Shut up!
01:16:17For years, Lady Thunder's been running the largest charity in Africa. While you were polishing your
01:16:22shoes, she was saving children. That can't be.
01:16:28No, no, no. If that's true, then let her prove it. Lady Thunder is to confirm this circle's billion
01:16:38dollar investment. And the system's only locked with one thing. Her fingerprints.
01:16:45If she is who she says she is, let her unlock her.
01:16:49Yeah, let her prove it.
01:16:51She can't! It's all just empty words.
01:16:53Go ahead, Eleanor. Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:16:59Unlock the funds. Right here. Right now!
01:17:04Eleanor. Are you sure you can confirm this?
01:17:08No thanks. Sebastian. It's time for them to see the truth.
01:17:21Highest level authorization.
01:17:34Verified Eleanor Thunder. Type CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:39One hundred billion funds activated.
01:17:42My god!
01:17:48My god! She is Lady Thunder. The 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. Eleanor is Lady Thunder.
01:18:07Lady Thunder! Lady Thunder!
01:18:13What now, Sylvia? What else do you have to say?
01:18:24Sylvia!
01:18:31Sylvia!
01:18:31My father will kill me.
01:18:40Take them out. We'll deal with them later.
01:18:55So, Eleanor, it's true.
01:18:58You're the Lady Thunder.
01:19:04The CEO of the Thunder Group.
01:19:06And the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:09Does this even matter anymore?
01:19:14Of course it matters.
01:19:16I would have never broken up with you if I had known.
01:19:18Things 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?
01:19:35We were together for seven years.
01:19:38And you never believed in me.
01:19:42No, that'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.
01:19:55I- this- this- this- I- I- I don't-
01:19:57You made your choice, Daniel.
01:19:59So every benefit that I gave you, every contact, every dollar, I'm taking it all back.
01:20:04Eleanor, 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, we can fix.
01:20:22Your daughter?
01:20:24Weren't you the person that called me a useless girl?
01:20:27Not good enough for your son?
01:20:29It was before.
01:20:30I didn't know, I was stupid and blind.
01:20:34You- 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.
01:20:54No, we were together for so long, Eleanor.
01:20:58Please, please forgive me.
01:21:01I wanted a fast track to power.
01:21:04Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the fall.
01:21:17Eleanor.
01:21:18Lady Thunder, you and my grandson make a perfect pair.
01:21:25So, congratulations.
01:21:29Yes, congratulations to you both.
01:21:33Where's Sebastian?
01:21:35That's interesting.
01:21:36Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:21:42Well, no.
01:21:43That was a mistake.
01:21:45Uh, he's always part of my family.
01:21:47He will always be my grandson.
01:21:50I did warn you all.
01:21:51I 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
01:22:07and not in the family's shadow.
01:22:09But Sebastian, you-
01:22:10I 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.
01:22:40I will accept you.
01:22:42Eleanor.
01:22:45As you can see, I'm no longer just a Whitmore.
01:22:49A man starting over.
01:22:54But if you'll have me, I'd like to start it with you.
01:23:01Will you stay by my side and marry me?
01:23:04Of course I will.
01:23:09And this time as your wife, investor, and co-founder.
01:23:14I wish I could have done it.
01:23:16But it's just me.
01:23:18I can't do this, you see.
01:23:21I'm sorry I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:26When the world is on your shoulder.
