02:01What?
02:02Are you okay?
02:03Just back insuapt.
02:04Nothing to…
02:05Oh my god, your water broke!
02:10Oh my god, your water broke!
02:21Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:26Multi-tasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:31Dad called. He won't let you know if we should come, but...
02:35I told him that he lost his visiting privileges
02:38He decided that his assistant's been more comfortable than ours.
02:43That's my girl.
02:54Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:56But there's a condition.
02:59We need to slash costs.
03:01Immediately.
03:03Layoffs.
03:05Half of it without leave.
03:09Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:12Well, just remember.
03:14Ever cleaned up that Malayan disaster?
03:17And get immunity.
03:19In fact, um...
03:21They deserve a promotion.
03:23No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:34Boss, the Mulan collection crisis? Averted. Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:39Ew, you saved the entire collection? Impressive.
03:44Oh, Ashley.
03:45How about I make you the new creative director?
03:47Starring today.
03:51Oh my god, is this really happening?
03:53She's offering Victoria's job?
03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
03:59No?
04:04But, Victoria...
04:05Don't worry about her.
04:06I'm not useless.
04:07I know it's not fire.
04:13You know that collection I just rescued up?
04:17I hid something in the design.
04:20Your initials and now little graces.
04:23Hold right in the fabric.
04:24And that's going to give him a long runway?
04:31Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:35Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:38Mom, if we have to...
04:40We're going to that private school.
04:42No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just the way.
04:47This job will keep us apart.
04:49I love you, Mom.
04:54Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
05:06After all these years in your shadow, Victoria,
05:09I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:25Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
05:36What the hell?
05:38Listen up, everyone.
05:39Victoria Winter is terminated.
05:42Effective immediately.
05:44You can't just do that.
05:46She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:48They're a loss against this.
05:50Vic worked while in labor.
05:51She's the creative backbone of Miss El Niveau.
05:55Maternity leave, medical insurance,
05:57these preggos are bleeding us dry.
06:01Everything okay here?
06:05Great timing.
06:07Victoria Winter, you're fired.
06:10Clear out your desk now.
06:12You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:23I saved this company three times when your father could have been here.
06:27Three times.
06:30Well, that's ancient history.
06:34The word was fresh blood.
06:36And I'm eager to save the entire long collection.
06:39What?
06:44I'm the one who...
06:46I see you.
06:48Me, I hear you.
06:51Feel that curve.
06:53That's her signature.
06:54That's what makes it me as a lover.
07:00How could you?
07:02I taught you everything you know.
07:03Everything you know.
07:10I wish things were different, Vic.
07:14I should have thought about your career before I got into Brandon.
07:22What happens to my team?
07:24Miranda pulled all that matters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:31Things cost so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:35Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:40These jobs are their lifelines, health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:44You can't just throw them away.
07:47Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:51No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
07:55And that's corporate America for you.
07:57Or, we can shift the math.
08:00You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:04Think of it as taking one for the team.
08:10Miranda's still drowning in her husband's guts.
08:14And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:17They can't lose their jobs.
08:23Come on, Vic. We'll see you care about them.
08:26Prove it.
08:34Prove it.
09:01Fine for it.
09:02That's my sandwich package after 15 years.
09:05That's what it worked to.
09:20Careful.
09:22I got you.
09:28Vincent?
09:30Vincent Chevalier?
09:32Hi.
09:36High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:48So.
09:50It's true.
09:52Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving what you saw in the Lord's Mulan collection.
09:57How do you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:07Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:10What are you getting at exactly?
10:11I'm talking about you and me.
10:12Partners.
10:13You're genius.
10:14My money.
10:15No corporate BS.
10:16No one holding you back.
10:17No one holding you back.
10:18I thought it may need you to think about now.
10:19And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:27Just saying.
10:28Vincent Chevalier, wow.
10:29You can expect to see the head of Chauvin our corporate nemesis throwing into the office.
10:33Got your spy here?
10:34Don't mind me.
10:35I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing.
10:37office with you in an attached nursery.
10:41Just saying.
10:45Vincent Chevalier, wow!
10:49We didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin, our corporate nemesis, thrown into the office.
10:53Got your smile here?
10:57Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria your
11:01soft landing, triple her salary, corner office.
11:05You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel
11:09swoop in.
11:11So you're dumpster diving now, rescuing a washed up single mom with
11:15outdated ideas?
11:17It's an interesting take to have, considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:21I mean the jacket, it's
11:25Victoria's spring collection, right? The earrings, it's Victoria's
11:29collaboration with Cartier. If her work is so far beneath
11:33you, maybe you should just strip.
11:37Shit, shit, shit!
11:39What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:43Actually, those were my designs.
11:53What did you just say?
11:55The spring collection.
11:57The Cartier pieces.
11:59I designed them.
12:01Under your supervision of course, but they came from me.
12:03Oops, looks like you've been backing your own horse, Vincent.
12:07I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:11Let us clean my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:17So what, sketches get past her all the time, it doesn't freeze the quad.
12:27Maybe she was in the middle, what did they call it?
12:29Dress designer?
12:31And the logo?
12:35The EW, woven in, Victoria's signature mark.
12:39It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:41Mommy, explain it, maybe shut up.
12:49It's funny, all those pieces,
12:51with the Milan collection that everyone's losing their word,
12:55they all have EW and GW's so good too.
12:57Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter,
13:01her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:03It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
13:09Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
13:13Well, Mia, tell them.
13:15Tell them you designed this.
13:17Tell them you saved Milan.
13:19The logo?
13:21It's...
13:23It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:27You lying little bitch!
13:29Black Motions are saving the company.
13:33Look at the logo again.
13:37It's not EW or GW.
13:41It's actually two Ms, M-M, for McMichael, my last name.
13:47See?
13:49One M flipped, one upright.
13:53It's not for Grace or Emily.
13:57It's mine.
13:59That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:03Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two Ms.
14:07Human.
14:09She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:13You learned well, Mia.
14:17Maybe too long.
14:19You'll regret this.
14:21Come on, let's see.
14:23We don't have to see today.
14:25Okay.
14:27Let me drive you over here.
14:29I have four hours outside.
14:31I got this. You shouldn't be carrying it.
14:35Through.
14:37Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:41Just...
14:43Take care of my honor of Holly, will you?
14:47That's right! Get the hell out of my company!
14:51Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:53Call of Victoria.
14:59V.I.P. invitation, Paris Fashion Week.
15:05Front row.
15:07I didn't even find it.
15:09Enlightening.
15:17Every pregnant woman fired.
15:21All of us.
15:23Just like that.
15:24No severance.
15:25No warning.
15:26Nothing.
15:27But a box of insecurity, ask her.
15:34Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:38For a termination, he can work back when you pay for your sign.
15:41Bonus, my guardian star.
15:43Now, I'm not near slashing you.
15:46Your designs are eerily lighted.
15:48Oh, my God!
15:50Mom!
15:51This is insane!
15:52I can't believe we're actually here.
15:54Victoria, wait for it!
15:55It's a nuclear tank.
15:57Your mom's basically a legend.
15:58You know that, right?
15:59Yeah.
16:00Oh my god, Mom.
16:02This is insane.
16:04I can't believe we're actually here.
16:06Victoria Winter.
16:08The nuclear dick.
16:10Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
16:12Yeah.
16:14We've been taking bets on where you'll land
16:16after Maison de Vaux.
16:18Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:22Wait. Maison de Vaux?
16:24Well, well.
16:26The queen of the outer crown
16:28graces us for her presence.
16:30Great with you to show up here.
16:32What's next? Applying for retail jobs
16:34at the mall?
16:36Leaving so soon?
16:38You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:40Does mommy dare to build a deal of her little
16:44career update about getting a can
16:46for not cutting it anymore?
16:48Mom, is that true?
16:54Don't worry. She'll explain
16:56once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
16:58Ladies and gentlemen,
17:00Victoria Winter.
17:02Still pretending she matters.
17:08My mom is one of the most talented designers
17:10in this entire room.
17:12If Miss Honeyville is putting people like you
17:14in charge of the business,
17:16then maybe deserves to crash and burn!
17:18Well, look at that. It seems entitlement
17:20runs in the family.
17:22Say whatever you want about me,
17:24but leave my daughter out of it.
17:26That's gotta sting, huh?
17:28Exposes unemployed in front of your kid
17:30and worships you like some kind of hero?
17:32But hey, good news!
17:34There's a factory down the street
17:36that's always looking for hard-working children.
17:38If paying bills is getting tough,
17:40maybe send her over there.
17:42That's enough!
17:46That's enough!
17:48You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
17:50You never belonged in this world.
17:52Look at her!
17:54A jobless single mom
17:56still pretending she can afford couture.
17:58That dress...
18:00It's a cheap knockoff.
18:04Wearing fakes to Paris fashion
18:06is not just pathetic.
18:08It's insulting to everyone here who actually
18:10deserves to be here.
18:12What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:16Remove that dress!
18:18We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:22Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
18:26Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:30Take your hands off her now.
18:32I'm gonna sit.
18:34I'm gonna sit.
18:40You're dismissed.
18:50You're alright.
18:54You're alright?
18:56What the fuck?
18:57Jesus Christ!
18:58That's Vincent Chamellier!
19:00The reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
19:02What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:06That knockoff?
19:08That you're so near to trash her for?
19:12It's Chauvenne.
19:14Booked Couture.
19:15Winter Collection.
19:16Not even released yet.
19:18Price tag?
19:20300,000.
19:22Wow!
19:23You gave her that.
19:25That's right.
19:26I did.
19:29I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:33Oh my god, everyone mystery solved!
19:35Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
19:39Mr. Billionaire is not a white knight.
19:41He's a walking trust fund.
19:45Victoria's leaving her way to the top.
19:47It's just so predictably desperate.
19:54You really don't understand real talent, do you?
19:59For those of you who don't know me,
20:01I'm Vincent Chamellier.
20:03CEO of Chamellier.
20:07Yes.
20:08I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:13I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:15Your brilliance.
20:18Your principles.
20:20Your passion.
20:22Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:25Mom, did you know about this?
20:28I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:32But in the meantime, what I will do
20:35is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:39She won't let you down, boss.
20:40You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chamellier.
20:42She's nothing but a has-been.
20:43The show's about to start.
20:45Your seats are waiting.
20:46Holy shit.
20:47The industry bold boy and the creative powerhouse together?
20:50Talk about a power couple.
20:52They come on the entire industry.
20:54This isn't over, bitch.
20:55Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
20:56So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
20:58No.
20:59No.
21:00No.
21:01No.
21:02No.
21:03No.
21:04No.
21:05No.
21:06No.
21:07No.
21:08No.
21:09No.
21:10No.
21:11No.
21:12No.
21:13No.
21:14No.
21:15No.
21:16No.
21:17No.
21:18No.
21:19No.
21:20No.
21:21No.
21:22No.
21:23No.
21:24No.
21:25No.
21:26No.
21:27No.
21:28No.
21:29No.
21:30No.
21:31No.
21:32No.
21:33No.
21:34No.
21:35No.
21:36No.
21:37No.
21:38No.
21:39No.
21:40No.
21:41No.
21:42No.
21:43No.
21:44No.
21:45No.
21:46No.
21:47No.
21:48No.
21:49No.
21:50No.
21:51No.
21:52No.
21:53It's true, she took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:56I've slaved away on those designs, day and night.
22:02And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:09That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:12Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:16That's enough, Holly.
22:18Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:23Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:28Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:32That's her real design strategy.
22:34Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
22:37And those kids she's so proud of? Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:43Oh, Gafu!
22:44It's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
22:54Not now.
23:00The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights.
23:04The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:06We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:09Is this some kind of sick joke with them all?
23:11Are you canceling the show because you're incompetent?
23:14This is completely unprofessional.
23:17I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:20This is breach of contract!
23:24It's actually fixable.
23:28You can't seriously be thinking about helping with back-stabbing vultures.
23:33Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week!
23:36Mason Milford appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:40Sources say the entire collection need to cancel.
23:42Minutes before showtime!
23:44The question on everyone's mind?
23:46Is this the end for the once prestigious fashioners?
23:48This show doesn't happen?
23:49You're personally liable for the breach counties.
23:50We're talking buildings, aren't we?
23:51Buildings.
23:52Buildings.
23:54Buildings.
23:55What is it?
23:57This show doesn't happen?
23:58You're personally liable for the breach counties.
23:59We're talking buildings, aren't we?
24:00Buildings.
24:22What's this?
24:24Now.
24:26How?
24:28The fiber supplier must have sent us affected materials.
24:31I can't magically make you dresses in an hour.
24:34You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:38If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:42That's billions of dollars.
24:45Then you better figure something out.
24:47Because if you don't, I'm already fired.
24:50I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:03Miss Winter, how do you respond to accusations over design theft?
25:08Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:12Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:15And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:19We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:32Excuse me.
25:34Excuse me.
25:36It's okay. It'll be alright.
25:38What do you want, Mia?
25:39Vic. I really need your help.
25:53Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
25:57Look, I know you're furious. I would be too.
26:01But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
26:04What about them?
26:05Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:08If we tank, they're done.
26:10Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:12Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just don't pull this out with you.
26:18Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:21Yes, absolutely. And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:25Please, Vic. Not for me. For that. That's weird.
26:30I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
26:35What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:40They... they couldn't make it. Holly cut the travel budget.
26:45Is that right?
26:47Toria, I know I don't deserve your help.
26:52They do.
26:54Fine.
26:56I'll help.
26:58But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
27:01Not for you.
27:13Oh my god. It's Victoria Winter.
27:16The nuclear vec.
27:17I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric. Now.
27:22I need royal fuchsia for this stitching. Regular fuchsia won't work with this fabric.
27:32Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:37You miss work?
27:44Vincent, how did you...?
27:47I figured you might need some supplies, so...
27:50I had my assistant bring over Javen as an emergency kit.
27:56This is perfect, but...
27:58Javen and Maison Lavo are competitors.
28:00Why would you help them?
28:04I'm not helping them.
28:07I'm helping you.
28:09I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:12I have a design I've been saving.
28:14Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:17It's yours now.
28:19I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:23Then what do you want?
28:26You.
28:29What?
28:30You're a talent.
28:34You're a vision.
28:36Come and work as you're in.
28:39I'm in.
28:41I'll work for you.
28:43Just like that?
28:44Just like that.
28:45Now?
28:46Let me finish my final job for Maison Lavo.
28:49What?
28:51What?
28:52I hate it.
28:54When I'm calling school.
28:56I wish I was cool.
28:58Like the new world's cool.
29:00I regret it.
29:02So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get it.
29:05I won't be bad.
29:07Don't ever change.
29:10I'ma be proud of my name.
29:16She's doing it in minutes.
29:18But would've taken us hours.
29:20Whoa.
29:21No wonder they call it the nuclear pick.
29:24It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
29:28The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
29:36Five minutes to show time.
29:37We made it.
29:40Woo!
29:41Woo!
29:42Woo!
29:43Woo!
29:51Well?
29:52Do we pull the plug or not?
29:54We're good.
29:55Everything's back on track.
29:57See?
29:58I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:00You've got twice your talent.
30:03Yeah.
30:04Right.
30:05This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:08Big sense is not making.
30:17To Victoria.
30:19The real hero of the night.
30:21Mom, you're insane.
30:22I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:36Couldn't have done it without you.
30:38You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
30:45Well, well, still hanging around.
30:46I've been too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
30:47Fraud.
30:48Pauline.
30:49Why didn't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
30:50What are you talking about?
30:51Just ask the models.
30:52Any of them.
30:53Oh, and Mia.
30:54Don't forget about our agreement.
30:55About Miranda and Pauline.
30:56Are you talking about them?
30:57Two new beginning search event?
30:58No.
30:59No.
31:00No.
31:01Oh, I'm not.
31:02No.
31:03No.
31:04No.
31:05No.
31:06No.
31:07No.
31:08No.
31:09No.
31:10No.
31:11No.
31:12No.
31:13No.
31:14No.
31:15No.
31:16No.
31:17No.
31:18No.
31:19No.
31:20No.
31:21No.
31:22No.
31:23No.
31:24No.
31:29Speaking of the new beginnings, Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:36I want to help with her education.
31:39What?
31:40This and that?
31:41That's too much when we barely know each other.
31:45Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
31:50I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress, the one you made from scratch.
31:59I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
32:05You remember that?
32:07I remember everything.
32:10I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:18Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:21You were married.
32:23And then worse.
32:25And then you were building your career.
32:28The timing is not right.
32:32Until now.
32:42I have been away for 20 years to do this.
32:48I should probably get this.
33:01Mia?
33:02God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:16That Milan disaster you turned around?
33:19Absolute magic.
33:20And now I have an opportunity to put you in the map for good.
33:25Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:30Sean Gosling?
33:31The Sean Gosling?
33:33The very one.
33:34Three-time Oscar winner.
33:35People's Sexies Men Alive.
33:36And if you play your cards right, the next face in the maze only goes to Vince Ware.
33:42They're taking pitches now.
33:44If he picks yours, this changes everything.
33:48For you.
33:49For the brand.
33:50Where it is, she'll land in the right too.
33:53Land this.
33:54Vincent is where Victoria are done.
34:01Seal the deal.
34:02I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:04I've got this, Holly.
34:06You won't regret it.
34:07God, what am I going to do?
34:16I can't design menswear.
34:18I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:21Lauren and Felina are gone too.
34:23I'm completely on my own.
34:26If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:33maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over it.
34:58Thanks for meeting me.
34:59I know things are complicated between us.
35:01You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
35:03Cut to the chase.
35:08We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tucks.
35:10Miranda and Pauline are also there.
35:12Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:13She can handle this about me.
35:15Please, wait.
35:16There's more to it.
35:17After Paris, Pauline needs someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:20Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:23I've been fighting for them.
35:25Are you serious?
35:26Pauline's due any day now.
35:28Trust me, I know.
35:30This project is our only shot.
35:32If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them off.
35:35Have you worked with Sean before?
35:37No, but I've heard you have.
35:39Ages ago.
35:41I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala.
35:44Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left Mason at all.
35:49Really? What concept?
35:51Well...
35:56Perfect. She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:00I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:04Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:05I do.
36:06Actually, I...
36:07I took him with me when I left Mason on the boat.
36:09Wait.
36:10Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:11How exactly is she a part of this project?
36:12Well, since she's the best mentor designer we have, Holly's liking her work from home.
36:19Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:20Of course, Vic.
36:21Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:22Do you have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:23Do you have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:24I do.
36:25Actually, I...
36:26I took him with me when I left Mason on the boat.
36:27Wait.
36:28Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:29How exactly is she a part of this project?
36:30Well, since she's the best mentor designer we have, Holly's liking her work from home.
36:35Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:36Of course, Vic.
36:37Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:40You lose my daughter.
36:41Take all the time you need.
36:42Mia, don't make me regret trusting you...
36:57Again.
36:58we're trusting you. Again.
37:18Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:20Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything was sideways?
37:24The Sean Gosselin one with the black hat and lapels?
37:27That's the one. Can you check my home office? It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:34Got it. Grace is napping for the perfect timing.
37:38Thanks, sweetie. I just need to double check something about that.
37:44Shoulder.
37:48Mom, are you okay?
37:54Miranda?
37:55What?
38:00Mom! Mom! What's going on?
38:02Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:06Miranda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:10Girls don't pay themselves.
38:12Girls don't pay themselves.
38:14You met my husband.
38:15Old child with no paycheck.
38:17And now there's a newborn at home.
38:19Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:23What?
38:25Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:34No severance, no copper, nothing. Just gone.
38:38That's completely illegal.
38:41Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
38:45All at once. What are the odds, right?
38:50And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours that year.
38:55Her sister, Becca Bielski, piling up.
38:58And Mia knew about all this.
39:05Mia, front row seat when Hal made an announcement.
39:10Didn't blink.
39:12To be said by her shiny new creative director title.
39:17She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
39:20Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:24What?
39:25That bitch!
39:28This ends now.
39:36Dammit!
39:41Yes, Ms. Michael.
39:42This is right from Milan.
39:44We need a group of lighting.
39:46Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:50Um...
39:59What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
40:02Victoria will never shoot someone else.
40:06I heard that.
40:07You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:10Then where is she now?
40:12Gone.
40:13Now I'm in charge.
40:14And if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:17What the hell is going on here?
40:18Just a great disagreement. Everything is in control.
40:19You're causing it. Tell me it was something presentable.
40:20Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:22Show me.
40:23It's not quite ready for-
40:24Now.
40:25This is garbage.
40:26Absolute garbage.
40:27Absolute garbage.
40:28Absolute garbage.
40:29I just need a little more time.
40:30We don't have more time.
40:31This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:32If Shufin gets this deal instead of us-
40:33If Shufin gets this deal instead of us-
40:34What do you think?
40:35Is this something presentable?
40:36What are you doing with Ryan?
40:37It's something presentable.
40:38Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:39Show me.
40:40I'm just finalizing some details-
40:41Show me.
40:42It's not quite ready for-
40:43Now.
40:49This is garbage.
40:51Absolute garbage!
40:53I just need a little more time.
40:55We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:58If Shufin gets this deal instead of us...
41:04What's that?
41:06It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:14I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil,
41:18get me a way to design with tomorrow morning,
41:21or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:36I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:55Right on cue.
41:59Read that sketch ASAP.
42:01Miranda and Poland's futures depend on it.
42:04The absolute nerve of this woman!
42:09She'll get her sketch.
42:11And that's when we spin the trap.
42:25You're early?
42:26Vic, I really need that sketch.
42:29I said I'd help, not hand over my design.
42:39Polly's all over me about this.
42:42If I don't have something tonight,
42:44Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:48Still lying, Mia.
42:49You'd never learn.
42:50Guess it's payback time.
42:52So, do you want my help or not?
42:55I can walk you through it.
42:56Your design could be just as good.
42:58She's such a snake!
43:02Vic, my stomach is killing me!
43:04Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:08Fine.
43:09But don't touch anything.
43:11Do you want her too?
43:12I don't know.
43:13I don't know.
43:14You do, I'm just gonna touch her.
43:15And I'm pretty sure it's a snake.
43:20My mother.
43:21My mother.
43:22My mother.
43:23I'm pretty.
43:24My mother is the snake.
43:25My mom.
43:26My mom.
43:27Yeah.
43:28My mom.
43:29My mom.
43:30My mom.
43:31My mother.
43:32My mom.
43:33My mom.
43:34My mom.
43:35My mom.
43:36My mom.
43:37So.
43:38My mom.
43:39You just let her take your work?
43:53She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
43:58You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:02Go after the same clients.
44:04Show them what real design looks like.
44:07We're not out yet.
44:09Oh, there's a revolution room.
44:27Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:32You're welcome, Mom.
44:33I want you and your team as your men.
44:42Full creative control.
44:45Oh, Miranda, your husband's debt.
44:48Handled.
44:49And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:53Especially, I...
44:54I'm Pauline.
44:57Your sister is in good hands.
45:00The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:02It's already prepping for her next surgery.
45:05Master Chevalier!
45:07Thank you!
45:08Don't thank me.
45:10Thank Victoria.
45:11I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:13Vincent, I...
45:16I don't even know what to say.
45:20It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:22God bless you!
45:38Thanks.
45:43Bye.
45:44Bye.
45:45Bye.
45:46Bye.
45:47Bye.
45:49Bye.
45:49Bye.
45:50Bye.
45:50Bye.
45:51Bye.
46:22And you're still here.
46:31Final tweaks, the pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:37You've got Grace to sleep.
46:42Yeah.
46:44And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:47Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
46:57Remember, it's in my red abdomen history.
47:03Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:06We don't follow trends, we create them.
47:08Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcala moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:22I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:25What is that bitch doing here?
47:38Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:41My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:48Didn't expect to see you here.
47:50Thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
47:55I multitask.
47:58Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:02You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategy is working wonders.
48:07The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:10And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:14Proud new woman in Tokyo.
48:17Three accident weeks and I'm the CEO.
48:19What's next?
48:20The bake sale?
48:22Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:24You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:27And what real loyalty looks like.
48:29Sean, glad you could make it.
48:44We have something very special to show you.
48:49Big.
48:53I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
48:55You never know.
48:57Congratulations.
48:58Thank you, Sean.
48:59It's good to see you.
49:01Let's begin the pitches.
49:05You ready to lose?
49:06You're out of your league.
49:08You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:18First up, me and McMichael, Maison Laveau.
49:28Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:29Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:30Next, Victoria, Miranda and Pauline.
49:34Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:43Beautiful work.
49:49Both pools.
49:53We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:03After careful consideration, we're rewarding Project 2.
50:10Let's all go.
50:12Yes!
50:14Of course.
50:16This is what we planned all along, wasn't it?
50:28What the hell did you people put me in?
50:31Are you trying to kill me?
50:33Mr. Galsing has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:36Who designed the tuxedo?
50:37Did you even read the brief?
50:40I mean, you must have read the brief.
50:44It's not complicated.
50:46It says no synthetic blends.
50:49I mean, there must be some end mistake.
50:52Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
50:54A mistake?
50:55I could have ended up in the emergency room.
50:58Victoria, please, tell these amateurs how you pulled your glasses off.
51:04I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:14I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's health for a deadline.
51:17And that's why Victoria is the best.
51:19Which actually pays attention.
51:21After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:25The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:32Mr. Galsing was just a slip up.
51:34Mia's design was the front runner all along.
51:37That's why they picked her first.
51:43Maybe everyone should see this.
51:45Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
51:58Not to me, Lowe.
51:59Even for you.
52:04Nathan and Lowe will be hearing from my liars.
52:08And so you know,
52:10I will be supporting Victoria's case for this like that.
52:15We thought the world's reputation is toast.
52:18We're suspending all collaborations.
52:30Don't even think about Tronland anywhere else.
52:33You're blacklisted.
52:40Victoria, please.
52:45I'll do anything, please.
52:46Just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
52:48You made your choices, Holly.
52:49Now you live with them.
52:50Why didn't you go too far?
52:52Why didn't you go too far?
52:53Why didn't you go too far?
52:54You went too far.
52:55I'll do anything.
52:56Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
52:58You made your choices, Holly.
53:00Now you live with them.
53:01Wow, you went too far.
53:05Sean Gawzing's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team of Joe Men.
53:16Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:27To the best comeback in fashion history, and to the women who made it happen.
53:33And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
53:39Mom, you might want to see this.
53:51Happy birthday, Victoria.
53:56Happy birthday to you!
53:58Nice! Look!
54:04Maison Lévois on the brink? Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:11Ouch! I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
54:15Strange, isn't it?
54:17I gave them everything. Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:30Now it's all crashing down. I thought I felt vindicated.
54:33Honestly, it's a weird mix.
54:37Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
54:42Look, who said that our best years are behind us? Look at this!
54:46Jeven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
54:53Victoria, this is you! You did this!
54:57Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
55:03Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
55:06Careful, Vincent. You must love the best part.
55:19I...
55:23Victoria Winsor.
55:27Will you marry me?
55:28Will you marry me?
55:33Yes! A thousand times yes!
55:36Woo!
55:37Woo!
55:38Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:48Woo!
55:56Ever!
55:57Ever!

56:04Woo!
56:06Woo!
56:08Woo!
56:14You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:18I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:21When word got out you left.
56:24Clients bailed.
56:26The board freed.
56:27Numbers tanked.
56:29I couldn't stop it.
56:31You, Steward Mace on the boat, into this storm holly.
56:34I know.
56:35I know.
56:36I know.
56:38I know.
56:40My father.
56:42The stress gave him a heart attack. He wouldn't even speak to me anymore.
56:48I destroyed everything.
56:49My thoughts slashing costs and save us.
56:50But instead I got to the company.
56:51I didn't mean to pretend like this.
56:52I mean, I don't know if I was in debt. I bought it. Last week. The brand. The archives. Even the debt. It's part of Jevan now.
57:02People, why would you do that?
57:03To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:07You and Victoria.
57:08You and Victoria.
57:09To help you do better than I did.
57:10I'll do it differently.
57:11Goodbye, Polly.
57:12Goodbye.

57:41Miss Wintour, I just, I want to thank you.
57:54Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
57:59I can keep working and have my baby.
58:04You changed everything.
58:06Congratulations.
58:08Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:20Ready?
58:24Always.
58:36And now, Jovan's new collection, designed by Victoria Ventura and Mercy.
