00:00Shit! No, no, no! The system crashed mid-upload! Half the collection was the wrong season…
00:18We want everything.
00:22We're on runways in 48 hours.
00:26If productions start with these botched designs, we're all dead.
00:30Not just fire, we're dead.
00:32Company collapses, our careers are over.
00:35Come out here and talk to us.
00:37We have 8 million tied up in this collection.
00:39I have a passionate jerky boat.
00:41Right now, one word for me, your industry poison.
00:48Enough.
01:00Vic!
01:02Mia, Japanese indigo.
01:06Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:10Pauline, handle those vultures.
01:12Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:2128 minutes?
01:22The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
01:2527 now.
01:27Tick tock.
01:27I'm done.
01:49Crisis averted.
01:50I swear to God, you're not human.
01:5327 minutes.
01:54Holy shit.
01:56Pre-orders are flooding in.
01:57This will shatter every record.
02:06Vic, are you okay?
02:10Just frax and hicks, nothing to...
02:13Oh my God, your water broke.
02:17Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:29Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin.
02:33Dad called.
02:35He wanted to know if he should come, but...
02:38I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since...
02:41He decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
02:45That's my girl.
02:56Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:59But there's a condition.
03:02We need to slash costs.
03:05Immediately.
03:07Layoffs?
03:10That's it without leave.
03:12Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:17Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster, they get immunity.
03:23In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
03:27No way, this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:38Boss, the Milan collection crisis?
03:40Averted.
03:41Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:43Ew, you saved the entire collection?
03:45Impressive.
03:46Oh, actually, how about I make you the new creative director, starting today?
03:54Oh my God, is this really happening?
03:57She's offering me Victoria's job?
04:00I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
04:07But, Victoria...
04:09Don't worry about her.
04:10I'm not useless.
04:11They're going to sound fire.
04:12Another collection I just rescued, Em.
04:21I hid something in the design.
04:23Your initials, and now little graces.
04:27Hold them right into the fabric.
04:33And that's going to be a Milan runway?
04:36Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:39Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:41Mom, you can't have to.
04:44We are going to that private school.
04:46No discussion.
04:48Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:51This job will keep us afloat.
04:53I love you, Mom.
04:54Holy shit.
05:06Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company.
05:10After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:15Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
05:32Victoria Winter is terminated.
05:45Victoria Winter is terminated.
05:46Effective immediately.
05:47You can't just do that. She's in the hospital having her baby. They're a loss against this.
05:54Vic worked while in labor. She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
05:59Maternity leave, medical insurance, these preggos are bleeding us dry.
06:04Everything okay here?
06:07Great timing. Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:14Clear out your desk now.
06:25You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:28I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll.
06:32Three times.
06:35Well, that's ancient history.
06:39The board wants fresh blood.
06:41And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
06:48What?
06:49I'm the one who...
06:52Mia, you...
06:56Feel that curve?
06:57That's your signature.
06:59That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
07:01How could you?
07:07I taught you everything you know.
07:16I wish things were different, Vic.
07:20I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:24What happens to my team?
07:30Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:36Things got so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:39Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:45These jobs are their lifelines.
07:47Health insurance.
07:48Paid maternity leave.
07:49Basic human dignity.
07:50You can't just throw them away.
07:52Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:55No mandated paid maternity leave.
07:58No real protection.
07:59But hey, that's corporate America for you.
08:02Or, we can shift the math.
08:06You sign.
08:07They stay.
08:08The budget works out.
08:11Think of it as...
08:13Taking one for the team.
08:16Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
08:19And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:22They can't lose their jobs.
08:28Come on, babe.
08:29You say you care about them.
08:31Prove it.
09:01Five grand.
09:02That's my seventh package after 15 years.
09:03That's what I'm worth to them.
09:04Careful.
09:05I got you.
09:06I got you.
09:07Vincent?
09:08Vincent?
09:09Vincent Chevalier?
09:10I got you.
09:11Vincent?
09:12Vincent?
09:13Vincent Chevalier?
09:14Hi.
09:15High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:16I got you.
09:17I know.
09:18You're not.
09:19No, you're not.
09:20I know.
09:21I know.
09:22I know.
09:23Yeah, I know.
09:24I know.
09:25I know.
09:26I know.
09:27I got you.
09:34Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:38Hi.
09:41High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:53So, it's true.
09:57Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Mison LeBeau's Milan collection.
10:06How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:13Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:18What are you getting at exactly?
10:21I'm talking about you and me.
10:25Partners.
10:27Your genius, my money.
10:31No corporate BS.
10:33No one holding you back.
10:35I've got a baby to think about now.
10:41And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:47Just saying.
10:48Vincent Chevalier, wow.
10:49You didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin, our corporate nemesis strolling into the office.
10:59Got your spy here?
11:00Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria your soft landing, triple her salary, corner office.
11:12You know, before the vultures at LV or Chanel swoop in.
11:15Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:16You're rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:18Wow, that's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:27I mean, the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:34The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:37If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:42Strip.
11:44Shit, shit, shit.
11:46What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:55Actually, those were my designs.
12:00What did you just say?
12:02The spring collection.
12:04The Cartier pieces.
12:06I designed them.
12:07Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
12:10Oops.
12:11Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
12:15I thought you were better than this, ma'am.
12:19Then explain my signature.
12:21On the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:29So what? Sketches get passed around all the time, it doesn't prove squat.
12:33Maybe she was her little, what do they call it?
12:36Ghost designer?
12:38And the logo?
12:41The EW, woven in Victoria's signature mark.
12:46It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:49Well, Mia, explain it and make her shut up.
12:51Shut up.
12:55It's funny.
12:57All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing at her heart.
13:02They all have EW and GW so near, too.
13:05Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
13:08Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:10It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs.
13:16Mia, is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
13:21Well, Mia, tell them.
13:23Tell them you designed this.
13:25Tell them you saved Milan.
13:26The logo?
13:27It's...
13:29It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:34You lying little bitch!
13:37That promotion was for saving the company!
13:40Look at the logo again.
13:45It's not EW or GW.
13:49It's actually two Ms.
13:52MM for McMichael, my last name.
13:55See?
13:59One M flipped.
14:01One upright.
14:02It's not for Grace or Emily.
14:05It's mine.
14:07That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:10Oh my god, she's right.
14:12It does look more like two Ms.
14:15You manipulative bitch.
14:17You really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:21You learned while Mia.
14:23Maybe two of them.
14:26You'll regret this.
14:29Mom, it's me.
14:31We don't have to sink to that level.
14:33Okay.
14:35Then let me drive you home, Carrie.
14:37My Ferrari is outside.
14:39If I got this, you shouldn't be caring anymore.
14:46Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:49Just take care of Miranda and Polly, Mia.
14:52That's right.
14:53Get the hell out of my company.
14:55Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:58Paul and Victoria.
14:59VIP invitation.
15:00Paris Fashion Room.
15:01Front Row.
15:02I didn't even find it.
15:03Lightning.
15:04Every pregnant woman fired.
15:05All of us.
15:06Just like that.
15:07No severance.
15:08No warning.
15:09No warning.
15:10Nothing.
15:11But a box and a security escort.
15:12A box and a security escort.
15:13Finally,
15:15Finally,
15:18purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:19They're termination people.
15:20What?
15:21What?
15:22What?
15:23What?
15:24What?
15:25What?
15:26What?
15:27What?
15:28You weren't even the just being used.
15:29What?
15:30What?
15:31What?
15:32We took it out for 200 filming.
15:33I killed it.
15:34What?
15:35What?
15:36Why did not see if that?
15:37What's the pain in my organs?
15:38Yes.
15:39It's okay.
15:40Word.
15:41It's fine.
15:42khĂ´ng!
15:43We'll try to cure the company in May.
15:44What?
15:45This was me.
15:46Wait.
15:47All of us!
15:48Just like that.
15:49bonus late writing star. Now, about Paris fashion movie, your designs are eagerly awaited.
15:59You should have kept your legs closed.
16:10Oh my god, mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
16:15Victoria Wintour. It's a nuclear Vic. Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
16:22We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison LĂ©veau.
16:25Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:31Wait, Maison LĂ©veau?
16:34Well, well, the queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
16:38Brave of you to show up here. What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:43Leaving so soon. You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:50Mommy, dear, has to build you in on her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
16:58Mom, is that true?
17:02Don't worry. She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
17:07Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour. Still pretending she matters.
17:15My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:19If Maison LĂ©veau was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash and burn.
17:26Well, look at that. It seems entitlement runs in the family.
17:30Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:34That's got a sting, huh? Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
17:41Hey, good news. There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
17:46If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:51That's enough.
17:55That's enough.
17:57You've always been a fraud, Victoria. You never belonged in this world.
18:02Look at her. A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
18:07That dress. It's a cheap knockoff.
18:13Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
18:17It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:23What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:26Remove that dress.
18:29We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:33Hey, stop it. Let go of my mom.
18:35Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:40Take your hands off her now.
18:50You're dismissed.
19:00You're right.
19:00You're right.
19:06Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
19:10The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
19:12What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:16That knockoff that you're so here to trash her for?
19:21It's Chevenne.
19:23Montcouture. Winter Collection.
19:27Not even released yet.
19:28The price tag?
19:31300,000.
19:32Wow!
19:34You gave her that.
19:35That's right.
19:36You did.
19:39I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:42Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
19:46Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy.
19:50Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
19:52He's her walking trust fund.
19:56Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
19:58It's just so predictably desperate.
20:01You really don't understand real talent, do you?
20:09For those of you who don't know me, I'm Vincent Chevalier.
20:14CEO of Jevenne.
20:15I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:23I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:27Your brilliance.
20:28Your principles.
20:31Your passion.
20:33Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:37Mom, did you know about this?
20:40Now, I'm not gonna pursue anything until she's ready.
20:42But in the meantime, what I will do is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:51She won't let you down, boss.
20:55You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
20:58She's nothing but a has-been.
21:01The show is about to start.
21:03Your seats are waiting.
21:10Holy shit.
21:11The industry golden boy and the creative powerhouse together?
21:15Talk about a power couple.
21:17They could run the entire industry.
21:20This isn't over, bitch.
21:22Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
21:33So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
21:36Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:45Some people, too.
21:46Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:57This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:59She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
22:03It's true, she took my work and passed it off as her own.
22:08I've slaved away on those designs day and night.
22:13And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:23That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:25Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:28That's enough, Holly.
22:30Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:36Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:40I know what you're doing.
22:41Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:45That's her real design strategy.
22:47Stop it, Holly.
22:48You're embarrassing yourself.
22:50And those kids she's so proud of?
22:52Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:54How dare you?
23:02It's a disaster in there.
23:04There's something wrong with the collection.
23:05It's the fabric.
23:07Not now.
23:10The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights.
23:17The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:20We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:22Is this some kind of sick joke, Mesmova?
23:24Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
23:27This is completely unprofessional.
23:30I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:34This is breach of contract.
23:38It's actually fixable.
23:40You can't seriously be thinking about helping me backstabbing vultures.
23:47Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:50Mesmova appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:53Sources say the entire collection may be canceled minutes before showtime.
23:57The question on everyone's mind.
23:59Is this the end for the once prestigious fashion groups?
24:06This show doesn't happen.
24:08You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
24:11We're talking billions, Holly.
24:13Billions.
24:13Billions.
24:14Billions.
24:15Billions.
24:15Billions.
24:15Billions.

24:21Billions.

24:36Billions.
24:37Billions.
24:38Billions.
24:39Billions.
24:40Billions.
24:41How? The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials.
24:45I can't magically make new dresses in an hour.
24:49You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:52If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:56That's billions of dollars.
24:59Then you better figure something out.
25:01Because if you don't, not only are you fired, I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:11Miss Winter, how do you respond of accusations over design theft?
25:22Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:27Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:29And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:34We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:41Excuse me.
25:50Excuse me.
25:51It's okay, punk. I'll be right.
25:59What do you want, Mia?
26:05Vic, I really need your help.
26:08Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
26:11Look, I know you're furious.
26:15I would be too.
26:17But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
26:20What about them?
26:21Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:23If we tank, they're done.
26:25Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:28Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just don't help us out here.
26:34Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:36Yes, absolutely.
26:38And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:41Please, Vic, not for me.
26:44For them.
26:45For it's weird.
26:46I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
26:50What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:52They, they couldn't make it.
26:58Holly cut the travel budget.
27:01Is that right?
27:03Victoria, I know I don't deserve your help.
27:08They do.
27:10Fine.
27:12I'll help you.
27:13But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline.
27:16Not for you.
27:28Oh my God.
27:29It's Victoria Winter.
27:31A nuclear veck.
27:32I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:35Now.
27:35I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:45Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:47Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:53Would this work?
27:59Vincent, how did you...
28:02I figured you might need some supplies, so I had my assistant bring over Joven's emergency kit.
28:11This is perfect, but Joven and Maison Laveau are competitors.
28:16Why would you help them?
28:19I'm not helping them.
28:22I'm helping you.
28:24I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:28I have a design I've been saving.
28:30Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:32It's yours now.
28:35I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:38Then what do you want?
28:41You.
28:44What?
28:48You're a talent.
28:50You're a vision.
28:52Come and work as Joven.
28:55I'm in.
28:56I'll work for you.
28:58Just like that?
28:59Just like that.
29:01Now, let me finish my final job for Maison Laveau.
29:04I hate it when I'm gone.
29:11Oh, I wish I was cool.
29:14Like the new girl at school.
29:17I regret it.
29:18So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get at it.
29:21I won't be back.
29:24Don't ever change.
29:26I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:32She's doing a minute.
29:34What would have taken us hours?
29:36Whoa.
29:37No wonder they call her the nuclear vic.
29:40It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
29:44The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
29:47Five minutes till showtime.
29:54You made it.
30:07Well?
30:08Do we pull the plug or not?
30:10We're good.
30:11Everything's back on track.
30:13See?
30:13I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:16You've got twice her talent.
30:19Yeah.
30:20Right.
30:21This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:24You fix vests, not make them.
30:33To Victoria.
30:35The real hero of the night.
30:36Mom, you're insane.
30:49I can't believe you actually picked that disaster in under an hour.
30:53I couldn't have done it without you.
30:56You know, if you start dating before you work together,
30:59it doesn't count as an office romance.
31:01Well, well, still hanging around.
31:09I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
31:12Fraud.
31:14Pauline, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:18What are you talking about?
31:20Just ask the models.
31:22Any of them.
31:23Oh, and Mia.
31:26Don't forget about our agreement.
31:28About Miranda and Pauline.
31:30I will.
31:36Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
31:38Yeah.
31:45Speaking of new beginnings.
31:48Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:50I want to help with their education.
31:55What?
31:56Vincent, that's too much.
31:58We barely know each other.
32:01Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
32:06I remember watching you win that regional competition.
32:11In that silver dress.
32:13The one you made from scratch.
32:14I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
32:22You remember that.
32:24I remember everything.
32:27I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:35Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:36You were married.
32:40And then you worked.
32:42And then you were building your career.
32:44The timing was never right.
32:48Until now.
32:49I have been waiting for 20 years to live.
33:15I should probably get this.
33:18Mia?
33:27Mia?
33:31God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:34That Milan disaster you turned around?
33:36Absolute magic.
33:38And now I have an opportunity that could put you on the map for good.
33:42Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:45Sean Gosling?
33:49The Sean Gosling?
33:50The very one.
33:52Three-time Oscar winner.
33:53People's Sexiest Man Alive.
33:54And if you play our cards right, the next face of Maison de Beauvoir's handswear.
34:00They're taking pitches now.
34:02If he picks yours, this changes everything.
34:05For you.
34:06For the brand.
34:07Word is.
34:08Jovan's in the running too.
34:10Land this.
34:12Vincent and his whore Victoria are done.
34:17Seal the deal?
34:19I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:20I've got this, Holly.
34:23You won't regret it.
34:31God, what am I going to do?
34:33I can't design menswear.
34:35I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:38Miranda and Felina are gone too.
34:40I'm completely on my own.
34:43If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:50maybe I can squeeze one more vehicle over it.
34:54Thanks for meeting me.
35:16I know things are complicated between us.
35:18You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
35:21Cut to the chase.
35:24We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax.
35:27Miranda and Pauline are also in the...
35:29Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:30She can handle this without me.
35:32Please, wait.
35:32There's more to it.
35:34After Paris, Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:38Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:41I've been fighting for them.
35:43Are you serious?
35:44Pauline's due any day now.
35:46Trust me, I know.
35:48This project is our only shot.
35:50If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them both.
35:52Have you worked with Sean before?
35:55No, but I've heard you have.
35:58Ages ago, I did a jacket for him for the Met Gala.
36:03Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept for him right before I left Maison-Lau.
36:07Really?
36:08What concept?
36:13Well...
36:13Perfect, she's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:31I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:35Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:38I do.
36:41Actually, I...
36:42I took them with me when I left Maison-Laubeau.
36:46Wait.
36:48Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:50How exactly is she part of this project?
36:53Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have,
36:56Holly's letting her work from home.
36:58Is the company covering her health insurance?
37:00Of course, Vic.
37:04Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
37:09I need to thank God.
37:11Take all the time you need.
37:14Mia.
37:15Don't make me regret trusting you.
37:18Again.
37:18Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:39Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:43The Sean Gosselin one with the black fashion lapels?
37:46That's the one.
37:46Can you check my home office?
37:48It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:53Got it.
37:54Grace is napping.
37:55The perfect timing.
37:56Thanks, sweetie.
37:57I just need to double check something about that.
38:03Shoulder.
38:04Instruction.
38:07Mom, are you okay?
38:12Miranda?
38:14Vic?
38:16Mom, mom, what's going on?
38:22Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:25Brenda, what happened?
38:27Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:30Bittles don't pay themselves.
38:32You met my husband, old child with no paycheck,
38:35and now there's a newborn at home.
38:38Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:42What?
38:43What?
38:44Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:48After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:53No severance, no cover, nothing.
38:55Just gone.
38:57That's completely illegal.
38:58Company lawyer said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
39:04All at once.
39:06What are the odds, right?
39:08And Polly, working night shifts at 24 hours time here.
39:13Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
39:16And Mia knew about all this.
39:23Mia, front row seat when Holly made an announcement.
39:28Didn't even blink.
39:30Too busy admiring her shiny new creative and direct title.
39:34She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
39:38Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:41What?
39:43That bitch!
39:46This ends now.
39:53Damn it!
39:59Miss Michael, he's just arrived from Milan.
40:02We need approval by name for that.
40:04Can't you see I'm working on something important?
40:16What are you all looking at?
40:17Get back to work!
40:19Victoria would never treat us all.
40:23I heard that.
40:24You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:27Then where is she now?
40:29Gone.
40:30Now I'm in charge, and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:34Well, at least she could actually design her.
40:42What the hell is going on here?
40:44Just a creative disagreement.
40:46Everything's under control.
40:48The Gosling page.
40:49Tell me you have something presentable.
40:54Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:56Show me.
40:58It's not quite ready.
40:59Right now.
41:06This is garbage.
41:08Absolute garbage.
41:10I just need a little more time.
41:12We don't have more time.
41:13This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
41:15If your friend gets this deal instead of us...
41:17What's that?
41:27It's just some inspiration.
41:29I recorded for the design.
41:32I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
41:35Get me a winner.
41:36Design me till morning.
41:37Or pack up your desk by lunch.
41:39I still can't believe they're using this as leverage.
42:05I still can't believe they're using this as leverage.
42:06Right on cue.
42:16Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:19Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:22The absolute nerve of this woman.
42:24She'll get her a sketch.
42:29And that's when we spin the trap.
42:43You're early.
42:44Vic, I really need that sketch.
42:47I said I'd help.
42:57Not hand over my design.
42:59Holly's all over me about this.
43:01If I don't have something tonight...
43:03Miranda and Pauline are toast.
43:06Still lying, Mia.
43:08You never learn.
43:09Guess it's payback time.
43:10So, do you want my help or not?
43:14I can walk you through it.
43:15Your design could be just as good.
43:18She's such a snake.
43:21Vic, my stomach is killing me.
43:24Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:27Fine.
43:28But don't touch anything.
43:29Sorry, Nick.
43:56Survival of the fittest.
43:57You just let her take your work?
44:12She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:17You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:21Go after the same clients.
44:23Show them what real design looks like.
44:26We're not out yet.
44:27Oh, there's a revolution, bro.
44:46Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:52You're welcome, Mom.
44:53I want you and your team as your van.
45:01Full creative control.
45:05I'm Miranda.
45:05Your husband's debt.
45:07Handled.
45:09And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
45:13Mr. Chiavillie, I...
45:15I'm Pauline.
45:17Your sister is in good hands.
45:18The best heart surgeon in the country is already prepping for her next surgery.
45:25Mr. Chiavillie, thank you.
45:28Don't thank me.
45:29Thank Victoria.
45:31I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:35Vincent, I...
45:36I don't even know what to say.
45:39It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:42It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:42I don't even know what you deserve.
45:54I don't know.
45:58I don't know.
46:01I don't know.
46:33You're here.
46:49And you're still here.
46:51Final tweaks.
46:53The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:58You've got Grace to sleep.
47:03Yeah.
47:05And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
47:10Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
47:18Remember, smile.
47:20We're about to make this week.
47:24Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:27We don't follow trends.
47:28We create them.
47:35Satin black lapels.
47:37Nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Met Gala moment.
47:40A blend of tradition and boldness.
47:44I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:53What is that bitch doing here?
47:55Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
48:04My company is thriving because of your generosity.
48:09I didn't expect to see you here.
48:11We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
48:15I multitask.
48:19Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:24You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
48:28The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:32And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:36Pregnant women talk, you know.
48:38Three X and threes in a rival CEO.
48:41What's next?
48:41The price sale?
48:42Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:45You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:48And what real loyalty looks like.
49:04Sean, glad you could make it.
49:06We have something very special to show you.
49:11Vic.
49:12I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
49:17You'd never know.
49:18Congratulations.
49:20Thank you, Sean.
49:21It's good to see you.
49:23Let's begin the pitches.
49:26You ready to lose?
49:28You're out of your league.
49:29You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:32First up, me and McMichael.
49:41Maison Laveau.
49:41Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
50:02Beautiful work.
50:12Both themes.
50:14We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:20After careful consideration, we're awarding the project to...
50:28We're awarding the project to...
50:31Maison Laveau.
50:33Oh, my God.
50:36Of course.
50:36This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
50:40Mm-hmm.
50:42What the hell did you people put me in?
50:53Are you trying to kill me?
50:55Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:58Who designed this tuxedo?
50:59Did you even read the brief?
51:03I mean...
51:04You must have read the brief.
51:06It's not complicated.
51:08It says no synthetic blends.
51:11I mean...
51:12It must be some kind of mistake.
51:13Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
51:15A mistake?
51:17I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:20Victoria.
51:21Please.
51:22Tell these amateurs why you pulled your last design.
51:32I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:36I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
51:40And that's why Victoria's the best.
51:42She actually pays attention.
51:43After reviewing all of the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:48The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:54Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip-up.
51:57Mia's design was the front runner all along.
52:00That's why they picked her first.
52:05Maybe everyone should see this.
52:12Wait.
52:13Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:20That's a new low.
52:21Even for you.
52:26Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
52:30So you know,
52:31I will be supporting Victoria's case for design theft.
52:38Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:40We're suspending all collaborations.
52:53Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:56You're blacklisted.
53:02Victoria, please.
53:03Victoria, please.
53:14I'll do anything.
53:16Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
53:19You made your choices, Holly.
53:23Now you live with them.
53:26Why don't you go too far?
53:28Why don't you go too far?
53:28Shawn Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Joven.
53:39Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:42To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
53:55And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
53:59Mom, you might want to see this.
54:15Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:19Happy birthday to you!
54:22Guys, look!
54:30Maison Laveau on the brink.
54:32Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:35Ouch!
54:36I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:39It's strange, isn't it?
54:41I gave them everything.
54:47Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:54Now it's all crashing down.
54:56I thought I'd feel vindicated.
54:58Honestly, it's a weird mix.
55:02Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
55:06Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
55:09Look at this!
55:11Joven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
55:18Victoria, this is you!
55:20You did this!
55:23Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers.
55:28Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
55:33Careful, Vincent.
55:35You almost forgot the best part.
55:36Victoria Winter.
55:50Will you marry me?
55:54Yes!
55:55Yes!
55:59A thousand times, yes!
