00:00:00I'm sorry.
00:00:01What?
00:00:02Are you sure?
00:00:05Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe this.
00:00:08The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:00:11Wait, what?
00:00:13One hundred billion dollars.
00:00:16What?
00:00:17It's Lady Thunder's move.
00:00:18You know, the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:00:21This is her first formal return back to the States, and we're her first target.
00:00:26You got it.
00:00:28A hundred billion.
00:00:34That's better.
00:00:35She was right.
00:00:37It was a hundred billion.
00:00:39Parker.
00:00:40Find her.
00:00:41Find who?
00:00:42The girl from the Nairobi flight.
00:00:44Eleanor.
00:00:45I don't care what it takes.
00:00:47You find her.
00:00:48Understood.
00:00:49But what do you want with her?
00:00:51I'm going to marry her.
00:00:53Wait, what?
00:00:55I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:01:01She's the one I want.
00:01:04You self-important bitch.
00:01:10Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:12I get it, Eleanor.
00:01:13You're not upset about the breakup.
00:01:15You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:01:18Name your number.
00:01:19Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off.
00:01:22And then we're done.
00:01:23Is that what you think?
00:01:25That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:30How about a hundred grand?
00:01:35Two hundred?
00:01:37Daniel.
00:01:38Three.
00:01:39That's my final offer.
00:01:41Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:01:44Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:01:47Just take the money and go.
00:01:49Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:01:52God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:01:55And what do you mean by that?
00:01:57I mean, if you weren't selling yourself,
00:02:01how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:02:05Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:10What?
00:02:12How dare you, Eleanor?
00:02:14For the sake of our seven years together.
00:02:18Just take the money and leave.
00:02:21Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:24He's done with you.
00:02:27Get it through your thick head.
00:02:29She's not worth your time.
00:02:32Oh, where's Margaret?
00:02:34Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:02:35Yeah.
00:02:36Said she had to handle something first.
00:02:38She'll be here soon.
00:02:39Margaret?
00:02:41Margaret.
00:02:43Daughter of James West, vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:02:48Practically next in line, next to Sebastian.
00:02:51Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:02:55Rich.
00:02:57Properly pedigreed.
00:02:59And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:03Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:03:07You should leave.
00:03:09Trust me, you don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:03:12Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:17So that's what this really is about.
00:03:21This isn't about the job.
00:03:23This is about her.
00:03:24This is about Margaret.
00:03:25At least with her, I can build something bigger.
00:03:27Really?
00:03:29Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:03:32You?
00:03:33Please.
00:03:34So.
00:03:35You actually think you're better than me.
00:03:44Margaret, my dear, you're here.
00:03:57So.
00:03:58You must be Eleanor.
00:04:00Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:04:03I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:04:06Bargain bin dress.
00:04:08Basic face.
00:04:09Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:13But don't mind her.
00:04:15She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:17She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:20So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:23I'm Margaret West.
00:04:25Daughter of James West.
00:04:27Vice Chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:29And you!
00:04:31You're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:34You're right.
00:04:36Unlike you, I don't need to cling to daddy's title to matter.
00:04:40Excuse me?
00:04:41You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:44Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:04:51Exactly.
00:04:52This is a ceremony for elites, not fed group.
00:04:55What the hell is going on?
00:05:01Ah, Margaret.
00:05:03Is everything alright?
00:05:04Why don't you ask her?
00:05:06Daniel dumped her.
00:05:08And now, she's crashing his party.
00:05:11Well, Dr. Prescott was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.
00:05:16So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:20Exactly.
00:05:21Take a look around.
00:05:23These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:25This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:05:27CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:33And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:05:40I was running a charity.
00:05:42Oh, charity!
00:05:44Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:46Honey, 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.
00:05:59So she's a gold digger.
00:06:01How pathetic.
00:06:02Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:09Hear that?
00:06:10This is reality.
00:06:11My son, a PhD.
00:06:13Future partner.
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 fairytale is over.
00:06:31A woman can be broke.
00:06:45Or uneducated.
00:06:47But delusional.
00:06:49Now that's where I draw the line.
00:06:52No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:06:57Funny, Daniel.
00:06:58You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:07:01Believing in you.
00:07:02Seven years.
00:07:03Seven years of working and wiring you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:07:08And this is how it ends?
00:07:09Don't twist this.
00:07:11I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:14I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:16I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:19I 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?
00:07:30This 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!
00:07:53That's enough.
00:07:54I'm done with your tantrums.
00:07:57Get the fuck out of my life!
00:08:02God.
00:08:03Look at her.
00:08:04So pathetic.
00:08:05Somebody give me a towel?
00:08:06Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:08:08Lady, that's enough.
00:08:09Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:08:10You?
00:08:11You're humiliating yourself.
00:08:12Get out!

00:08:14Where?
00:08:15She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.

00:09:37Eleanor do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means wow you are even
00:09:44more idiotic than I thought you just insulted the man who built this empire
00:09:49even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him but you you are so dumb in your world
00:09:56Sebastian may be untouchable but in mine he's just a man
00:10:00if I were you I'd be more worried that you laid a hand on me Sebastian might not be
00:10:07okay with that God you must really have a death wish Eleanor

00:20:21you just lost your future
00:20:25you just lost your future
00:20:26I'm sorry
00:20:27are you out of your fucking mind?
00:20:30that seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore
00:20:32who do you think you are?
00:20:34no one else dares sit here
00:20:48I think it kind of suits me
00:20:54Thomas, do you recognize this seat?
00:20:57would you say I belong here?
00:21:01Yes, sir. Of course you do.
00:21:06Are you out of your mind?
00:21:08That seat belongs to Mr. Whitmore.
00:21:10No one sits there except for him or my father.
00:21:14And you actually dare to park your dumpy ass there?
00:21:18Funny. I'm sitting, and I'm not moving.
00:21:21Got a problem?
00:21:24You want to play big shot?
00:21:27Fine.
00:21:28I'll give you one more chance.
00:21:30You can crawl out of that seat like a little dog and beg with Eleanor.
00:21:35Maybe I'll consider not ruining your life.
00:21:40Beg you?
00:21:42Yeah.
00:21:43Get on your knees, bark, and crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.
00:21:48That's the price you pay when you defy us.
00:21:51You hear that, Eleanor?
00:21:53You and your little boy can bark together.
00:21:57How romantic.
00:21:58You're playing with fire.
00:22:00No, sweetheart.
00:22:02I am the fire.
00:22:04Now, I'll give you three seconds to kneel.
00:22:07Now.
00:22:09One.
00:22:09Margaret, please, please, Margaret, don't.
00:22:19Get off of me.
00:22:21She hit me.
00:22:22You think I'm going to let that slide?
00:22:24Stand.
00:22:25I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:22:27I am hitting that bitch.
00:22:29Margaret, you should apologize.
00:22:34What?
00:22:34You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:37It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:40Just think about it.
00:22:41Has everyone lost their minds?
00:22:48You want me to apologize to these two?
00:22:51Yes.
00:22:51I'm good.
00:22:53The only reason I call you uncle is because of my father.
00:22:56Now I get humiliated, and you want me to apologize?
00:23:00Yes!
00:23:00I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:23:03You don't know what you're going to step into.
00:23:05Ah!
00:23:06I'm calling my father, and we will see who crawls away when that happens.
00:23:12No, don't call him!
00:23:14Letter.
00:23:15I'd love to see what James West is going to do to me.
00:23:19But, uh...
00:23:20Dad, I'm down on the meeting floor, and some bitch just hit me.
00:23:25Can you get down here now, please?
00:23:30He's on his way.
00:23:31And when he gets here, you'll both be done.
00:23:37Oh, Eleanor.
00:23:39Mr. West, Margaret's father, second only to Sebastian in this company.
00:23:45He's coming now.
00:23:47This time, you're finished.
00:23:49Not even I can help you.
00:23:51Help them?
00:23:52Please.
00:23:53They did this to themselves.
00:23:54She and her boy toy need to be crushed.
00:23:57Best.
00:23:58Well, Daniel, you don't get to save me.
00:24:00In my world, you're nothing.
00:24:02Still bluffing?
00:24:04I can't wait to see how hard you cry when James West walks in the room.
00:24:13Who the hell is hitting my daughter in my building?
00:24:27Dad, thank God you're here.
00:24:29This was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.
00:24:34What the hell's going on?
00:24:35It's not my fault.
00:24:36This woman is causing a scene.
00:24:39Look, she even slapped me.
00:24:41That's insane.
00:24:43Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:24:46You tell them who I am.
00:24:48Of course I did.
00:24:48They didn't care.
00:24:50And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's seat.
00:24:55It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:24:57That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:25:01Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know.
00:25:04Shut up, you fool!
00:25:06You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:25:10Mr. West, you understand?
00:25:12That man is Mr. Whitmore.
00:25:13You dare bring up Mr. Whitmore?
00:25:17Dr. Prescott was hired by him.
00:25:19And this, this is what you allow to happen when Mr. Whitmore is to return?
00:25:24No!
00:25:25I...
00:25:25Mr. Whitmore is to return to my daughter here in my building, Mr. Whitmore is to return
00:25:26to my daughter.
00:25:27You...
00:25:28You two...
00:25:30You are the ones that are stirring up all this trouble?
00:25:34Mr. Whitmore is to return to my daughter here in my building, Mr. Whitmore is to return
00:25:39to my daughter.
00:25:40He is Eleanor's fake husband, and she is the one that's been causing all of the problems.
00:25:45Mr. West, my son Daniel, he used to date Eleanor, but that's been done for a long time
00:25:54now.
00:25:56He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:25:57Relax.
00:25:58Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.
00:26:01He won't be held responsible.
00:26:03Oh, thank you, Mr. West.
00:26:07Hear that?
00:26:08My dad is here.
00:26:10He runs this place right under Sebastian.
00:26:13You are so done.
00:26:15And what happened to all that attitude?
00:26:18Hiding behind a chair now that a real boss is in the room?
00:26:21You really have no idea what's coming.
00:26:24Have you completely lost it?
00:26:27You dragged some random escort in here to play husband, and now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's
00:26:33chair too scared to turn around.
00:26:36Hey!
00:26:37You!
00:26:38Get your ass out of that chair right now before this gets ugly.
00:26:44All right, that's enough.
00:26:47Someone go turn that damn chair around so I can see this clown's face!
00:26:51With pleasure.
00:26:56With pleasure.
00:26:57Daniel, I wouldn't touch that chair if I were you.
00:27:01Because when you do, your little career crumbles.
00:27:03Is that supposed to scare me?
00:27:06No, it's just a fact.
00:27:08He's not someone you're across.
00:27:10My father is the vice chair of Whitmore.
00:27:14No one outranks him except for Sebastian.
00:27:17And you actually think that we should be afraid of your little cowboy here?
00:27:21You think we're supposed to be scared of a guy you picked up in a nightclub?
00:27:26Please.
00:27:27These two are running this like some sort of drama box show, but everybody knows trash
00:27:34is trash.
00:27:36Maybe all those years of poverty fried your brain, Eleanor.
00:27:40You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford to offend.
00:27:45Really?
00:27:46And why is that?
00:27:47Because you're a nobody.
00:27:49Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.
00:27:53You all love to talk about who's finished.
00:27:56But once that chair turns around, you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:28:01You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?
00:28:04I've truly lost her fucking mind since our breakup.
00:28:07Well, this is me.
00:28:09I don't think I've ever had a kid tell me I was done for.
00:28:12You got guts.
00:28:14I'll give you that.
00:28:16My guts aren't gonna help you if you piss me off.
00:28:21Now.
00:28:22Let me tell you what happens when your little husband tries to con his way into the Whitmore
00:28:31group.
00:28:34Oh, this is exciting.
00:28:35But do you think breaking their legs is enough?
00:28:38Maybe we should just throw them out of the country for good.
00:28:41Yes.
00:28:42That's what I plan to do.
00:28:44You.
00:28:47Turn that damn chair around right now.
00:28:49Or I'm gonna do it myself.
00:28:51No, Mr. West.
00:28:52Please.
00:28:53You can't.
00:28:54Why the hell not?
00:28:56They deserve it.
00:28:58The only thing I can't understand is why everyone is acting so scared.
00:29:02You know they actually told me to apologize.
00:29:05Apologize?
00:29:06To them?
00:29:08Well, since you're all so desperate to meet them.
00:29:15Sebastian?
00:29:17Mind saying hello?
00:29:18I suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:29:21That voice sounds so familiar.
00:29:24No, it can't be.
00:29:25Stop pretending.
00:29:27Turn that chair around!
00:29:46Was that supposed to scare me?
00:29:48I turned the chair, so now what?
00:29:51No.
00:29:53No way.
00:29:55You wanted to see me?
00:29:56James West?
00:29:59Mr. Whitmore!
00:30:01Doug, no need to call Mr. Whitmore.
00:30:04He'll be here any minute.
00:30:06And when he gets here, you two are dead.
00:30:09This is your last chance, Eleanor.
00:30:12Before Mr. Whitmore gets here, beg.
00:30:15You might just walk out of here.
00:30:17I won't beg anyone.
00:30:19But you?
00:30:20You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:30:23Don't waste your breath on them.
00:30:26If they want to burn, let them.
00:30:29You see that, Eleanor?
00:30:31The fantasy is dead.
00:30:33Now that my dad's here, he'll-
00:30:35He'll kill you both.
00:30:37So get out of that chair, cowboy, before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:30:41Shut up!
00:30:42Dad?
00:30:43Why are you shaking?
00:30:44Oh, I get it.
00:30:45You're gonna kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:30:46Perfect.
00:30:47Do it.
00:30:48You two are dead.
00:30:49You see my dad's hands?
00:30:50They're shaking.
00:30:51They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:30:52And the more they shake, the angrier he is.
00:30:53Consider perhaps, he's not shaking from anger.
00:30:54Please.
00:30:55My father?
00:30:56No.
00:30:57No.
00:30:58No.
00:30:59No.
00:31:00No.
00:31:01No.
00:31:02No.
00:31:03No.
00:31:04No.
00:31:05No.
00:31:06No.
00:31:07No.
00:31:08No.
00:31:09No.
00:31:10No.
00:31:11No.
00:31:12No.
00:31:13No.
00:31:14No.
00:31:15No.
00:31:16No.
00:31:17No.
00:31:18No.
00:31:19No.
00:31:20No.
00:31:21No.
00:31:22No.
00:31:23No.
00:31:24No.
00:31:25No.
00:31:26No.
00:31:27No.
00:31:28No.
00:31:29No.
00:31:30No.
00:31:31No.
00:31:32No.
00:31:33No.
00:31:34No.
00:31:35No.
00:31:36No.
00:31:37No.
00:31:38No.
00:31:39No.
00:31:40No.
00:31:41No.
00:31:42and deal with these nobodies?
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:47Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:31:53I'm dealing with you!
00:32:05Dad!
00:32:06You fool!
00:32:07Do you not know what you've done?
00:32:10Me?
00:32:11They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:32:14Shut it!
00:32:16And apologize to them right now!
00:32:19Apologize to them?
00:32:21Mr. West, they assaulted your daughter.
00:32:24Why would we apologize to them?
00:32:31You brainless idiots!
00:32:34Do you not know who that is?
00:32:36You can't do this!
00:32:38I just...
00:32:39I'm a PhD!
00:32:40I just made partner at Whitmore!
00:32:42No!
00:32:43A PhD!
00:32:45Who made partner?
00:32:47I had no idea!
00:32:48That changes zero!
00:32:55PhD!
00:32:57What are you doing?!
00:32:59What are you doing?!
00:33:03This is my son's celebration!
00:33:07There's no celebration!
00:33:09Not without that guy!
00:33:11Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:33:16What?
00:33:17What?!
00:33:18Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:19Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:19I apologize for my...
00:33:23idiot kid!
00:33:25Please, sir...
00:33:27forgive us!
00:33:28Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:29Please forgive us!
00:33:30Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:31Please forgive us!
00:33:31Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:32Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:33Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:34Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:35Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:36Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:37Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:38Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:39Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:40Is my family Sebastian Whitmore?
00:33:41Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:42I don't know!
00:33:43Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:44I don't know!
00:33:45Eleanor said she was married to that guy!
00:33:46That man!
00:33:47That man!
00:33:48Sebastian!
00:33:49How?!
00:33:50No!
00:33:51No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:53No!
00:33:54No!
00:33:55No!
00:33:56He's not Sebastian!
00:33:57That is just some gigolos that she hired!
00:33:59Dad!
00:34:00Dad, this is a trick, right?
00:34:01This is just some joke!
00:34:02You idiot!
00:34:03You have ruined the West name!
00:34:07Now get on whom he is!
00:34:09And beg him for forgiveness!
00:34:11So that really is Sebastian?
00:34:18Mr. Whitmore!
00:34:19Whitmer, I am so sorry.
00:34:22Please forgive me.
00:34:23I didn't know who you were.
00:34:24Please don't ruin us.
00:34:26You're lucky I don't lay my hands on a woman.
00:34:29This isn't over.
00:34:31James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:34:34Perhaps you should resign from the board
00:34:36and teach your daughter what respect is.
00:34:38No, sir.
00:34:39I am sorry.
00:34:41My daughter is young.
00:34:43She's stupid, and she does not represent me.
00:34:47You're right.
00:34:47She doesn't.
00:34:49But you do.
00:34:51And that's the problem.
00:34:52You're fired.
00:34:54No, please, sir, don't.
00:34:56So now I get it, Eleanor.
00:34:58That's why you had no fear.
00:35:00Because you had Whitmore beside you the whole time.
00:35:04You must really think you're an untouchable big shot now, huh?
00:35:11No, you've got it wrong.
00:35:13I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.
00:35:16I'm untouchable because I always was.
00:35:20Seven years, Daniel.
00:35:22And you never once asked who I was.
00:35:25You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving.
00:35:30I, Dr. Prescott, we fast-tracked you for talent.
00:35:32Yes, your academic record is impressive, but here at Whitmore, we hire for integrity.
00:35:38And you failed that test.
00:35:41Your offer is dead.
00:35:42What?
00:35:43Wait, Mr. Whitmore, please!
00:35:45My son has been working his entire life for this place.
00:35:48I'll throw him out.
00:35:49My decision is final.
00:35:50No amount of begging is going to change it.
00:35:53And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Prescott.
00:35:55I, I, I...
00:35:57Sebastian Whitmore!
00:36:06You have gone too far!
00:36:08Madam Whitmore!
00:36:11Madam Whitmore!
00:36:12Madam Whitmore!
00:36:16Grandma!
00:36:17Don't you dare call me that!
00:36:21The way you have defied this family!
00:36:23You've really outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.
00:36:30Grandma told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell.
00:36:32And what do you do?
00:36:33Huh?
00:36:34Ghost us?
00:36:35And then strut back in here and try to fire people?
00:36:38About the engagement, I'm...
00:36:40You forgot who runs this place.
00:36:42You might have the CEO title, but Grandma built the Whitmore Group from the ground up.
00:36:48And as far as Dr. Prescott and Mr. West, you don't have the authority to fire them.
00:36:52Did you hear them, Daniel?
00:36:57They were getting fired!
00:36:59But who is that guy?
00:37:00Why is he talking back to Sebastian Whitmore?
00:37:02That's Winston, Sebastian's big brother.
00:37:06Word is, through families at war, Grandma prefers Winston.
00:37:12Don't overstep, Winston.
00:37:14I'm still the acting CEO.
00:37:16Staffing decisions are mine.
00:37:17If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:37:20Sebastian, James has given decades to this company.
00:37:26And his termination is not happening.
00:37:30Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:37:31I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:37:35And as for him, he stays.
00:37:38Grandma, he...
00:37:45Thunder Circle funds all of the top scholars of the world.
00:37:49And their chairwoman, Lady Thunder, arrives tomorrow.
00:37:53We must garner her favor.
00:37:58And Dr. Prescott?
00:37:59He is just the golden boy that she is looking for.
00:38:05So, he stays for Whitmore.
00:38:09You got that?
00:38:15Yes.
00:38:16Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:38:19Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:38:23That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:38:28Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia.
00:38:30I'm already...
00:38:31I have made my decision, and it will not change!
00:38:37No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.
00:38:41He helped me once.
00:38:43I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.
00:38:45Hey, Thunder.
00:38:51Whitmore's proposal has been approved.
00:38:53We'll go public at tomorrow's gala.
00:38:55Whitmore, we are your first official U.S. partner.
00:38:57Perfect.
00:38:59Make sure it's loud.
00:39:04I'm going to give my husband a surprise.
00:39:11Sebastian, I know you're upset.
00:39:13But your marriage to Sylvia connects us to the Caldwell family.
00:39:19And to the Thunder Circle.
00:39:21That is the future.
00:39:23You'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else?
00:39:27I believe in building things myself, not chasing shortcuts.
00:39:31Shortcuts?
00:39:32It's called strategy.
00:39:35If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?
00:39:42And I disagree.
00:39:43Madam, that's not strategy, that's fear.
00:39:47You can't force Sebastian to marry someone else.
00:39:50What the hell is she doing?
00:39:52Oh God, it's her again.
00:39:54Doesn't she ever get tired of humiliating herself?
00:39:57Who let the trash in?
00:39:59Someone needs to take her back out to the curb.
00:40:01Who is she?
00:40:02Madam Whitmore.
00:40:03This is Eleanor, my ex.
00:40:06She stalked me here and then latched onto Sebastian, pretending to be his wife just to oppose your engagement plans.
00:40:14Shut up, Daniel.
00:40:15One more word and I'll shatter your jaw.
00:40:17Do you see that?
00:40:18He's panicking.
00:40:20Madam?
00:40:20Those two are lying to your face.
00:40:26That girl Eleanor, she just latched onto Sebastian to get herself out of trouble.
00:40:31That's just part of their scheme.
00:40:33Sebastian is using this little act to get out of his engagement with Sylvia.
00:40:37Yes, Sebastian and I started out as pretenders, but we're not pretending anymore.
00:40:43And what are you playing at?
00:40:47Sebastian Whitmore.
00:40:49Are you kidding me?
00:40:57For real?
00:41:00Oh, you gotta be shitting me!
00:41:04Are you out of your mind?
00:41:06You'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.
00:41:17Even if Sebastian's in trouble, there's no way he'd stoop to marrying a lowlife like you.
00:41:22Sebastian, if you say yes to her now, you will lose everything.
00:41:28Do you even know what you're doing?
00:41:30Of course.
00:41:31You proposed to me, I'm just returning the favor.
00:41:34What's the matter, Sebastian?
00:41:36Are you scared?
00:41:37Eleanor, when I proposed to you, I had everything.
00:41:39And you turned me down.
00:41:41And now that I'm suddenly in trouble, it's a yes?
00:41:44Exactly.
00:41:45I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune.
00:41:48I'm saying yes to you.
00:41:50Just as you are.
00:41:56Then, Eleanor,
00:41:58I say yes to you.
00:42:00I will marry you.
00:42:06There.
00:42:08Where's my wife now?
00:42:10Anyone got a problem with that?
00:42:11Well done, Sebastian.
00:42:26So what?
00:42:26You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:42:31I see now.
00:42:33My word means nothing to you anymore.
00:42:36So let me make this clear.
00:42:39I am suspending Sebastian from all duties as CEO of the Whitmore Group.
00:42:47Grandma, you can't be serious.
00:42:51I've already secured an investment from the Thunder Circle.
00:42:53Stop calling me that.
00:42:57The moment you proposed to that woman, you made your choice over the thing.
00:43:01And this is only the beginning.
00:43:04Tomorrow's gala will honor Lady Thunder.
00:43:06And the family received invite-only tickets from Sylvia, who you betrayed.
00:43:11And you will attend.
00:43:13And you will pacify Sylvia.
00:43:15Because it's your last chance.
00:43:17And if you fail,
00:43:19you can go pack your things
00:43:22and move out of our family.
00:43:31And I know
00:43:33you've been chasing investments behind our back.
00:43:37But Sylvia has promised me that unless you marry her,
00:43:40you won't see a single cent from the Thunder Circle.
00:43:43That's impossible.
00:43:45I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle.
00:43:47The deal's done.
00:43:48Confirmation?
00:43:51Talk is cheap.
00:43:53Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:43:57Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received a signed contract yet.
00:44:01You see?
00:44:03How I can't wait to see you fall, little brother.
00:44:07And you, girl,
00:44:08think you can just come in here and steal Sylvia's fiancée?
00:44:13You have no idea the hell you've raised.
00:44:19And Dr. Prescott,
00:44:20you'll be joining us tomorrow for the gala.
00:44:23Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:44:25You were invited to a gala that only invites a billionaire.
00:44:29That's right.
00:44:30Your recommendation comes directly from the Thunder Circle.
00:44:34What?
00:44:35Comes from where?
00:44:37Is that true?
00:44:39The Thunder Circle wrote my son a letter?
00:44:42According to Sylvia,
00:44:43Lady Thunder has a soft spot for Polish scholars.
00:44:47Tomorrow's your chance.
00:44:48You play your cards right.
00:44:50She might take a liking to you.
00:44:52Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:44:54I will go.
00:44:56Good.
00:44:57Then it's settled.
00:45:01The Thunder Circle gave their word.
00:45:04They wouldn't back up.
00:45:05Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:45:08Yes, sir.
00:45:10Hey.
00:45:12Relax.
00:45:13I said they'd invest in you.
00:45:15They slow both.
00:45:16Really?
00:45:17A backroom's nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:45:22We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.
00:45:29And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:45:33You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:45:37You are not invited to what we are.
00:45:41You'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:45:43Tomorrow?
00:45:45You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband.
00:45:47Be lucky if you're still breathing by tomorrow.
00:45:50If you have even a shred of sense left, you'll get on a plane tonight.
00:45:55Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:45:59So I'm the gold digger now?
00:46:02Of course.
00:46:03You're cleaning Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:46:05But not even he can support you now.
00:46:09Forget it, Mom.
00:46:10Talking to her is a waste of time.
00:46:12If I do end up impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow,
00:46:15maybe I'll toss you a favor.
00:46:18Keep you alive.
00:46:21Let's go.
00:46:29I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle,
00:46:33you still feel this high.
00:46:35Hey, don't listen to them.
00:46:41I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:46:45Relax, Mr. Whitmore.
00:46:47I've got this.
00:46:48Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:46:51Yes, ma'am.
00:46:52I get it.
00:46:53You're the dangerous one.
00:46:54But the Thunder Circle, the Caldwell family, they're a lot to handle.
00:47:01So what?
00:47:02So tomorrow I'll sign the deal.
00:47:04I'll secure everything.
00:47:06Because keeping you safe is my job now.
00:47:08Wow, what a hero.
00:47:10Now what happened to that cocky CEO who was begging me to marry him on the plane?
00:47:16Oh, come on.
00:47:17That was so embarrassing.
00:47:18That guy on the plane, he's dead now.
00:47:20He no longer exists, all right?
00:47:23So my wife, shall we move to the next step?
00:47:26Let's get married.
00:47:44Baby Thunder.
00:47:45How are the preparations for tomorrow's gala?
00:47:53Everything is ready.
00:47:54The media is locked, and the billion-dollar contract for Whitmore has been firewashed.
00:47:59Good.
00:48:00Just remember, this isn't for the Whitmore family.
00:48:02This is for Sebastian.
00:48:04So make sure all the funds fall into his hands only.
00:48:08Understood.
00:48:10Also, two of our allies are requesting a meeting.
00:48:12One is Prince Amir of the Diamond Magnate, and the other is General Verretti.
00:48:17They're outside.
00:48:18Should I let them in?
00:48:25Lady Thunder.
00:48:27Lady Thunder.
00:48:29Please.
00:48:33So, how have you been?
00:48:36Your business is good?
00:48:37Yes, Lady Thunder.
00:48:38And thank you.
00:48:40Your support doing my toughest year meant everything.
00:48:44My weapons empire now spans five continents.
00:48:48Impressive.
00:48:50And you, Amir?
00:48:52As usual, I'm doing well.
00:48:55Without your backing, I wouldn't be where I am, leaving my country with stability.
00:48:59It's good to hear.
00:49:00So, can I expect both of you at the gala tomorrow?
00:49:03Of course.
00:49:05Whatever you want, Lady Thunder.
00:49:06Just say the word.
00:49:08I will back you, no matter what.
00:49:10I'm afraid I can't attend.
00:49:15Things have grown tense between the Coldwells and me.
00:49:20What happened?
00:49:22Well, in the past few years, they've been expanding aggressively, crushing competitors left and right.
00:49:29I thought they were acting with your approval, so I didn't intervene.
00:49:35No, I never authorized any of that.
00:49:41Seems I underestimated how far they'd go.
00:49:44This ends now.
00:49:46They will answer for everything that they've done.
00:49:48Well, then tomorrow should be entertaining.
00:49:58Let's shake the world together.
00:50:03Cheers.
00:50:17Sebastian?
00:50:18Hey.
00:50:24Just checking in.
00:50:25I wanted to see if you're free tomorrow.
00:50:27What's going on?
00:50:28Well, the gala's tomorrow, and I had a few dresses made for you.
00:50:33A few?
00:50:34You make it sound like you're hosting a fashion week for me.
00:50:38Well, as your husband, it's my job to make sure you're the most stunning woman in the room.
00:50:42Is that so?
00:50:44Or is it so you can make your enemies jealous?
00:50:47Who says I can't do both?
00:50:48I'm going to go.
00:50:51Talk tomorrow.
00:50:55Mr. Whitmore.
00:50:57Lady Thunder is currently in a closed meeting.
00:51:00She won't be seeing anyone today.
00:51:01Mr. Lee, I just need to confirm about the investments.
00:51:05Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:06Lady Thunder has a high level of belief in you.
00:51:09You'll get your answer at the gala.
00:51:11Thank you, Mr. Lee.
00:51:12Mymon.
00:51:19Firefoxe.
00:51:19Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:20My partner.
00:51:29I'm tutte.
00:51:31I feel my partner.
00:51:32I feel my partner.
00:51:32Hmm, tonight is the gala.
00:52:01Luckily, Sylvia introduced us to her brother, Ravine.
00:52:07He owns the most exclusive boutique in the city.
00:52:11Even celebrities come here and still leave empty-handed.
00:52:14Unbelievable.
00:52:16Mr. Cogwell, you really shouldn't have.
00:52:21Every piece in here costs at least six figures.
00:52:24Well, it is worth every penny if it gains Lady Thunder's attention.
00:52:30Pick out anything you want in the store.
00:52:33Oh, thank you.
00:52:35And your sister, too.
00:52:37Dr. Prescott, you will be representing both the Whitmore and Caldwell families at the gala.
00:52:43Do help us gain Lady Thunder's favor.
00:52:46Absolutely.
00:52:47That's my boy!
00:52:49PhD perfect!
00:52:53And maybe about to become Lady Thunder's future partner?
00:52:57My boy, let's be honest.
00:52:59Next to Lady Thunder?
00:53:01That girl Eleanor?
00:53:02Even Margaret?
00:53:03They're nothing.
00:53:05If she notices you, and you end up marrying her, you'd rule!
00:53:15You have got to be kidding me.
00:53:19Eleanor!
00:53:23Well, well, look who thinks she's someone now.
00:53:28You've got some nerve showing your face around here.
00:53:31Watch your mouth.
00:53:33My wife can go wherever the hell she pleases.
00:53:36Sebastian brought you to play dress-up.
00:53:39Adorable.
00:53:41Too bad this dress costs more than you make in here.
00:53:46Who is she, Sebastian?
00:53:48I thought you were still with my sister.
00:53:51And you are?
00:53:52You seriously don't know?
00:53:55This is Sylvia Caldwell's brother?
00:53:59How shameless!
00:54:00First, you stole Sylvia Caldwell's fiancé, and now you're shopping like you belong here?!
00:54:05Wait, so what?
00:54:07Poor Avian, you didn't know.
00:54:11This gold digger cons Sebastian to marrying her.
00:54:15She's pretending to be Mrs. Whitmore.
00:54:18What?
00:54:19Married?
00:54:21Sebastian, you threw away my sister for this cheap whore?!
00:54:24Watch your mouth.
00:54:25Whatever 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?
00:54:32In my store?
00:54:35I have every right to throw you both out.
00:54:37Her first!
00:54:39Oh yeah? Let me make it easy for you.
00:54:41We'll take everything.
00:54:43Every dress, every necklace, every damn shoe in this place.
00:54:46By the end of this day, the store will be mine.
00:54:48I'll deal with you.
00:54:50I'll deal with you.
00:54:51Wow, Eleanor.
00:54:53What did it take?
00:54:54Two days to hook him?
00:54:57Seriously, Miss Ashton?
00:55:00You're giving up Sylvia.
00:55:03For her?
00:55:04What's the appeal?
00:55:05I mean, maybe it's a little bit better in bed now.
00:55:12Oh, but no, you don't get to speak about my wife ever!
00:55:15Mr. Whitmore!
00:55:17You're not even CEO anymore!
00:55:19Just because I'm not sitting in the chair doesn't mean I'm powerless.
00:55:21What?
00:55:23Please!
00:55:24My son has a PhD!
00:55:27One day, he's going to surpass you!
00:55:29You surpass me?
00:55:30Yes!
00:55:31My son, Daniel!
00:55:34He is about to marry the most powerful woman alive!
00:55:38Lady Thunder herself!
00:55:43What? I'm sorry, what?
00:55:43So, you regret it now?
00:55:45You 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.
00:55:54Daniel, 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.
00:56:11And you, I mean, you've lost the right to even dream 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?
00:56:29This lunatic thing!
00:56:31She runs the Thunder Circle and decides my son's future!
00:56:34I don't know, Lady Thunder's no thing we could throw around like that if you can't.
00:56:37You bitch!
00:56:41You break into my store spouting delusions!
00:56:55Adam, I'd like you to buy up every Caldwell boutique worldwide.
00:57:00I want the brand under my name.
00:57:01What?
00:57:03Do you even know how much it costs to buy my store?
00:57:06Well, Eleanor, I get it.
00:57:09The 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 clawed your way up by some miracle, you'd still be nothing.
00:57:28Sucking and dry.
00:57:30That'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?
00:57:42If anyone touches her, I'll ruin you.
00:57:43Do you realize what you're doing?
00:57:46You are crossing a line.
00:57:49Seriously, Sebastian.
00:57:51You side with her, you're both done.
00:57:53The Thunder Circle will eat you alive.
00:57:56The Thunder Circle has acquired all Caldwell boutiques.
00:58:16What?
00:58:16That's impossible.
00:58:17And Eleanor is the new owner?
00:58:26No.
00:58:27No.
00:58:27This is some mistake.
00:58:29There is no way that street rat owns this place.
00:58:32It's a scam!
00:58:33A trick!
00:58:35Well, Levine, looks like I own this shop now.
00:58:38You're no longer welcome here, so leave before I have the guards escort you out.
00:58:43What?
00:58:45You bitch!
00:58:46You can't do this!
00:58:48You have any idea!
00:58:49Say one more word and I'll have your name erased from the fashion world like chalk in the rain.
00:58:54Do you want to try me?
00:58:58No.
00:58:59Guards!
00:59:01Remove them.
00:59:01Daniel, could she really be Lady Thunder?
00:59:14Absolutely not.
00:59:16I've known her for years.
00:59:17There's no way she could run the Thunder Circle.
00:59:20Then how the fuck did she buy my sword?
00:59:22You still don't get it?
00:59:24That nanny work she did in Africa, that's where she met Lady Thunder,
00:59:29who just so happens to also run a charity there.
00:59:33So you're saying she used Lady Thunder's sympathy to get this?
00:59:37Exactly.
00:59:38She's nothing but a side piece with great timing.
00:59:43But tonight, I'll expose her.
00:59:47Tonight, 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.
01:00:01Not yet.
01:00:03Not until the gala.
01:00:05Back when I was working in Africa, I met...
01:00:08You met Lady Thunder?
01:00:10Yes.
01:00:12She visited one of the shelters we spoke, so...
01:00:16I reached out to her just now, as well.
01:00:20Why didn't you tell me you knew her before?
01:00:21Look, I'm... I'm sorry.
01:00:24This is great.
01:00:26I mean, if Lady Thunder's on your side, there is no way Sylvia's gonna lay a hand on you tonight.
01:00:32Sounds like you really don't want to see me get hurt.
01:00:35Of course not.
01:00:37You're my wife.
01:00:40And you stood behind me when everything fell apart.
01:00:43Tonight, I'm gonna 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.
01:01:01But tonight, after the gala, it's official.
01:01:06Public.
01:01:08That doesn't scare you?
01:01:11I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:01:17I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:01:18I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:01:26Winston, congratulations.
01:01:28Everyone knows your grandmother suspended Sebastian from his position,
01:01:32and that makes you next in line for CEO.
01:01:35Wow.
01:01:36Let's be honest.
01:01:37Sebastian has never been CEO material.
01:01:41My grandmother saw that.
01:01:43So 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.
01:01:49And tonight, Lady Thunder will be announcing who's next in line for the
01:01:53billion dollar investment.
01:01:56And you, Whitmore's golden boy, look like you've got it locked in.
01:01:59You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:18You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:20This is the Thunder Circle Return Galley.
01:02:23As a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:02:25Well, you should be at Sylvia's Suite, not parading around here like you still belong at the top.
01:02:31And you, since when did gutter trash just show up?
01:02:36Eleanor's my wife.
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?
01:02:43Everyone, gather around.
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.
01:02:56He could have married Sylvia and joined the powerful Caldwell family.
01:02:59But instead, he married her.
01:03:03A gold digger.
01:03:05Now, isn't that hilarious?
01:03:09It'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.
01:03:31But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:03:38And you, this poor excuse for a wife.
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.
01:03:49Don't you run your mouth!
01:03:58You bitch!
01:04:02You come to me, Winston.
01:04:04You bastard.
01:04:05I'm your brother!
01:04:07You're gonna let this bitch humiliate me in front of everyone, huh?
01:04:11Sebastian, let him go.
01:04:15I'm curious to see how far he'll take this.
01:04:18Isn't she just a nobody?
01:04:19Where did she get the guts?
01:04:20Because she's riding Sebastian's coattails.
01:04:23Once he's gone, she's out.
01:04:25You just humiliated your entire family in front of everyone.
01:04:30You chose a bitch over blood.
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.
01:04:57Sebastian.
01:05:00I'm going to ask you this for the last time.
01:05:03Are you going to marry Sylvia?
01:05:06No, grandmother.
01:05:07I never loved her.
01:05:08I didn't ask you if you loved her.
01:05:11I asked, will you marry her?
01:05:14No.
01:05:15I won't divorce Eleanor.
01:05:17You're going to risk the future of our family for this useless woman?
01:05:23You might be my grandmother, but you don't get to insult my wife.
01:05:27You really think marrying into the Caldwell family is going to elevate us?
01:05:31Of course I do.
01:05:33And what are you trying to say?
01:05:35The Caldwells say merge, but you and I both really know what they want.
01:05:39They want our assets, our name, and when they're done sucking us dry,
01:05:43Wilma will be nothing.
01:05:45We can't trust them.
01:05:47And we can't trust Sylvia.
01:05:51No wonder Sebastian's a CEO.
01:05:53Sharp instincts.
01:05:54Looks like I picked the right man.
01:05:57Grandma, don't listen to him.
01:05:58Sylvia promised.
01:06:00And if Sebastian agrees,
01:06:02the Caldwells will take us deep into the inner core of the Thunder Circle.
01:06:06You're sure?
01:06:07Absolutely.
01:06:07That's what this whole night is for.
01:06:09And Sylvia's already on her way.
01:06:12Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this gay rock.
01:06:16If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:06:19You're right.
01:06:22We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now.
01:06:26Do you hear that?
01:06:27Do you see what we have at stake?
01:06:29What are you laughing at?
01:06:33All of this.
01:06:34You're ready to sell Sebastian off for a shot at winning Sylvia's attention.
01:06:40And you call that a strategy?
01:06:43Sniffing up the wrong trail.
01:06:44What do you mean?
01:06:46What I mean is if you're looking for investment from the Thunder Circle,
01:06:51you don't need the Caldwells.
01:06:53You need me.
01:06:57What are you saying?
01:06:58Don't be ridiculous.
01:07:00Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:03It's out of her mind.
01:07:04The 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.
01:07:13But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:07:16Prove it.
01:07:18But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:07:21I am...
01:07:22This isn't about her lies.
01:07:24She's going to bring down the entire Whitmore family legacy.
01:07:33Mrs. Whitmore, you may not know this, but yesterday,
01:07:36Sebastian and Eleanor aggressively acquired every Ravine Caldwell boutique.
01:07:41Sebastian, is this true?
01:07:45The boutiques were taken over by Lady Thunder.
01:07:47Eleanor just asked for help.
01:07:49How did she know?
01:07:51Because they played the charity card.
01:07:54Years in Africa, nannying kids, all of it was to gain the Lady Thunder's favor.
01:08:00Exactly.
01:08:02No wonder she seduced Sebastian, turned him against his own family.
01:08:05She has made a career out of clinging to powerful people.
01:08:09She's dangerous.
01:08:12She's a conniving parasite.
01:08:15You have offended the heir of the Caldwell family.
01:08:19And now you're trying to drag us down with you?
01:08:23You ruined the Alliance.
01:08:25And now you show up here and crash the Thunder Circle Gala.
01:08:29We should make her crawl and beg for forgiveness.
01:08:32The ones who have been trying to crush you are the Caldwells.
01:08:36They should beg for forgiveness.
01:08:37You arrogant lunatic!
01:08:41Who are you to talk shit about the Caldwells?
01:08:43I'm just stating the facts.
01:08:45She knows her.
01:08:46I'm just stating the facts.
01:08:48Facts, huh?
01:08:55That's Sylvia Caldwell.
01:08:56Things are about to get ugly.
01:08:58Eleanor's finished.
01:08:59Once you cross the Caldwells, you're out.
01:09:03Is that the famous Caldwell heiress?
01:09:05Yes.
01:09:06My son, you could do worse than marrying her.
01:09:09Mother.
01:09:10All right, all right.
01:09:12You were made for Lady Thunder.
01:09:14That's the one you deserve.
01:09:16Sylvia.
01:09:16Thank God you're here.
01:09:19Seriously, Winston?
01:09:21One girl.
01:09:22And you crumble?
01:09:23Thaddeck, move!
01:09:29So, how do I?
01:09:31First you steal.
01:09:34Then you get our stores.
01:09:36And fire my brother.
01:09:37Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:09:41Why do I have to choose either?
01:09:43Are you that rattled?
01:09:45Good.
01:09:47Let's see how brave you are.
01:09:50Sylvia, don't.
01:09:53Sebastian, you're my fiancé and you're defending her?
01:09:56I never knew her.
01:09:58I came here tonight to talk.
01:10:00To build something better.
01:10:01Better?
01:10:03You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:10:10Fine.
01:10:11You want something better?
01:10:15Neil.
01:10:17Both of you and beg me for it.
01:10:23Enough.
01:10:25I've only gotten started.
01:10:27By the time tonight's gala ends, Whitmore won't even exist.
01:10:31Miss Caldwell, you can't do this.
01:10:33You promised the back I'll rise into the thundership home.
01:10:37You promised Sebastian would marry me.
01:10:39Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:10:41Do you hear that?
01:10:42Neil, marry her.
01:10:45Don't drag this family down with you.
01:10:47You're trying to doom us all, you ungrateful bastard.
01:10:51What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:10:53Too proud to kneel?
01:10:56Looks like you're the one who should be kneeling.
01:10:59Oh my god.
01:11:10She's insane.
01:11:11She's totally insane.
01:11:15Sylvia, are you hurt?
01:11:17Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:11:26You bitch.
01:11:28No one humiliates me like this.
01:11:30Oh, well there's a first sign for everything.
01:11:32I'm sure that you will get used to it.
01:11:35Kill her.
01:11:40This woman desecrated the Thunder Circle Gala.
01:11:43It's not only an insult to me,
01:11:45it's treason against Lady Thunder herself.
01:11:48She will be eliminated.
01:11:51And anyone who stands with her becomes my enemy.
01:11:56This is it.
01:11:57If I stand with Sylvia now,
01:11:58I'll win her and Lady Thunder's favor.
01:12:01Sylvia's right.
01:12:03Eleanor defied Lady Thunder.
01:12:06She deserves to be punished.
01:12:08I said it back.
01:12:09She's a disgrace.
01:12:11She defies everything we stand for.
01:12:13We must punish her.
01:12:15Punish her.
01:12:16Punish her.
01:12:17Punish her.
01:12:18Punish her.
01:12:19Punish her.
01:12:20Punish her.
01:12:25No, you got it all wrong.
01:12:27Everyone saw what she did.
01:12:28You're really going to defend her?
01:12:30Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:12:32Game over.
01:12:34You breathe because I allow it.
01:12:36When I say you're finished...
01:12:38Don't you dare.
01:12:39If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:12:41Shut up, Sebastian.
01:12:43Everyone here wants her gone.
01:12:45You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her.
01:12:48You want to ruin yourself?
01:12:50Fine.
01:12:51But don't drag the Whitmores down with you.
01:12:53This is what happens when you defy the Caldwells.
01:12:56So, Eleanor, how do you want to die?
01:12:58Impressive, Sylvia.
01:12:59You twisted the truth so quickly.
01:13:02But you picked the wrong opponent.
01:13:04All of you?
01:13:05You're just insects in my eyes.
01:13:07Still mouthing off?
01:13:09I'll send you straight to hell.
01:13:16And who exactly are you planning on sending to hell?
01:13:24General Varelli and Prince Amir?
01:13:26What are they doing here?
01:13:27This is the Thunder Circle's return gala.
01:13:30Big names were expected.
01:13:32Too bad for her.
01:13:33She's even more screwed now.
01:13:36What are you doing here, Varelli?
01:13:38We were just about to take out the trash.
01:13:41So, unless you plan on interfering with Thunder Circle justice,
01:13:45I suggest you let us finish.
01:13:47Sylvia Caldwell.
01:13:49Who excited were you planning to kill?
01:13:53Her.
01:13:54She attacked me in public.
01:13:57She disrupted the gala.
01:14:00Look, I know we've had our differences,
01:14:02but don't tell me you're here to steal my credit to impress Lady Thunder.
01:14:06Steal credit?
01:14:09You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:14:12One more word out of you,
01:14:14and the Caldwell name is history.
01:14:15You're serious?
01:14:17Deadly.
01:14:18You touch her again,
01:14:19and your entire empire burns to the ground.
01:14:22Because the woman you just threatened
01:14:25is Lady Thunder herself.
01:14:28Lady Thunder!
01:14:32What?
01:14:35Lady Thunder, don't be ridiculous!
01:14:38She's just a gold digger!
01:14:40For God's sake!
01:14:42Exactly!
01:14:43She's a broke cooker!
01:14:46This is just another bluff!
01:14:47She's pulling the same stunts, okay?
01:14:50She already used Lady Thunder to crush the Caldwell stores,
01:14:54and now she's doing the same thing, sabotaging our alliance.
01:14:58She's a fraud!
01:14:59You all must be delusional.
01:15:01Fine!
01:15:02If you want to stand with a liar, you're all as good as dead.
01:15:06Now I understand just how bold your entire family has become.
01:15:09Do you really think that Morelli, Amir, and the entire Thunder Circle couldn't erase your family over them?
01:15:16The real Lady Thunder could.
01:15:19But tonight, she's gonna destroy you, and all your fake pretenders.
01:15:27Weapons up!
01:15:28Lay 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.
01:15:53What is happening?
01:15:56Mr. Lee, finally, your Lady Thunder assistant, tell them this woman is lying!
01:16:03Tell them she's not Lady Thunder!
01:16:05Right!
01:16:06She's just my ex!
01:16:07How could she be anything?
01:16:09Lady Thunder manages portfolios worth billions.
01:16:12She babysits Orphan.
01:16:15Shut up!
01:16:17For years, Lady Thunder's been running the largest charity in Africa.
01:16:21While you were polishing your shoes, she was saving children.
01:16:27Can't be!
01:16:31If that's true, then let her prove it.
01:16:34The Lady Thunder is to confirm this circle's billion-dollar investment.
01:16:40And the system's only locked with one thing.
01:16:42Her fingerprints.
01:16:45If she is who she says she is, let her unlock her.
01:16:49Yeah, let her prove it!
01:16:51She can't!
01:16:52It's all just empty words!
01:16:53Go ahead, Eleanor.
01:16:56Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:16:59Unlock the funds right here, right now!
01:17:02Eleanor.
01:17:07Are you sure you can confirm this?
01:17:08No thanks, Sebastian.
01:17:11It's time for them to see the truth.
01:17:32Highest level authorization.
01:17:34Verified, Eleanor Thunder.
01:17:36Type, CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:17:39One hundred billion funds activated.
01:17:42My God!
01:17:48My God!
01:17:49She is Lady Thunder!
01:17:51The CEO of the Thunder Circle!
01:17:54She's investing a hundred billion dollars into Sebastian?
01:17:57What?
01:17:58No, this isn't happening.
01:17:59Now you all know who I really am.
01:18:02She really opened it!
01:18:05Eleanor is Lady Thunder!
01:18:07Lady Thunder!
01:18:08Lady Thunder!
01:18:09Lady Thunder!
01:18:11You are...
01:18:13What now, Sylvia?
01:18:14What else do you have to say?
01:18:15I don't know who you are.
01:18:17I don't know who you are.
01:18:24Sylvia!
01:18:25Sylvia!
01:18:31Sylvia!
01:18:33This is her.
01:18:35Call Mom.
01:18:36Leave her start.
01:18:38My father will kill me.
01:18:40Take them out.
01:18:42We'll deal with them later.
01:18:51So, Eleanor, it's true.
01:19:00You're the Lady Thunder.
01:19:05CEO of the Thunder Group and the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:11Does this even matter anymore?
01:19:14Of course it matters.
01:19:16I would have never broken up with you if I had known things could have been different.
01:19:22Could they have been, Daniel?
01:19:26If I had told you that I was Lady Thunder, would you have believed me?
01:19:29That I was the one who funded you?
01:19:31That I was the one who recommended you for Whitmore Group?
01:19:35We were together for seven years and you never believed in me.
01:19:42No, that's not true.
01:19:45All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top.
01:19:50I didn't mean anything to you.
01:19:55I don't...
01:19:57You made your choice, Daniel.
01:19:59So every benefit that I gave you, every contact, every dollar, I'm taking it all back.
01:20:05Eleanor, please, we've known each other for years.
01:20:15You've always been like a daughter to me.
01:20:18Whatever misunderstandings are between us, I confess.
01:20:22Cotter, weren't you the person that called me a useless girl?
01:20:27Not good enough for your son?
01:20:29It was before! I didn't know!
01:20:31I was stupid and blind! You'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.
01:20:47You and Daniel, you're not part of my life anymore.
01:20:53No, please, no!
01:20:55We were together for so long, Eleanor. Please, please forgive me.
01:21:01You wanted a fast track to power.
01:21:04Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the fall.
01:21:15You and my grandson make a perfect pair, so congratulations.
01:21:29Yes, congratulations to you both.
01:21:33Where is Sebastian?
01:21:35That's interesting. Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:21:38Well, no. That was a mistake.
01:21:45Uh, he's always part of my family. He will always be my grandson.
01:21:49I did warn you all, I told you that you would regret casting him aside.
01:21:57Grandma, I've decided I'm stepping away from the Wittenwolves.
01:22:02It's time I've made something that's truly mine, and 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 grandmother.
01:22:18But don't push your luck, madam.
01:22:23You're right.
01:22:28I will accept whatever choice you make, and respect you.
01:22:32Eleanor, as you can see, I'm no longer just a Whitmore, a man starting over.
01:22:50But if you'll have me, I'd like to start it with you.
01:23:01Will you stay by my side, and marry me?
01:23:07Of course I will.
01:23:08And this time, as your white, investor, and co-founder.
01:23:14I wish I could have done it, but it's just me.
01:23:18I can't do this, you see.
01:23:21I'm sorry I can't be the one to hold you.
01:23:25And the world is on your shoulders.
