00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:14The system crashed mid-upload!
00:16Half the collection is the wrong season!
00:18We're on everything!
00:20We're on runways in 48 hours!
00:26If production starts 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!
00:40I have a fashion that you're from low, but right now!
00:42One word for me, you're industry poison!
00:56Enough!
01:00Vic!
01:02Mia, Japanese indigo.
01:06Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:10Pauline, handle those vultures.
01:14Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:2028 minutes?
01:22The whole system takes 15 to reboot!
01:2527 now.
01:27Tick-tock.
01:48I'm done!
01:49Crisis averted!
01:50I swear to god, you're not human!
01:5327 minutes!
01:55Holy shit!
01:56Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:57This will shatter every record!
02:06Vic!
02:07Are you okay?
02:10Just Braxton Hicks, nothing to-
02:16Oh my god, your water broke!
02:20Mom, 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 I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since he decided that his assistants then was more comfortable than ours.
02:45That's my girl.
02:46That's my girl.
02:47Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
03:00But there's a condition.
03:02We need to slash costs immediately.
03:04Layoffs?
03:05Layoffs?
03:06That's it without leave.
03:07Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:17Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster, they get immunity.
03:22In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
03:30No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:34Boss?
03:35The Milan collection crisis?
03:36Averted.
03:37Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:38You saved the entire collection?
03:39Impressive.
03:40Oh, actually.
03:41How about I make you the new creative director?
03:42Starting today.
03:43Oh my god, is this really happening?
03:44She's offering me Victoria's job?
03:45I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
03:51But, Victoria-
03:53Don't worry about her.
03:54I'm not useless.
03:55Pre-going is now fired.
03:56Oh my god.
03:57You saved the entire collection?
03:58Impressive.
03:59Oh, actually.
04:00How about I make you the new creative director?
04:01Starting today.
04:02Oh my god, is this really happening?
04:03She's offering me Victoria's job?
04:04I 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.
04:11Pre-going is now fired.
04:12You know that collection I just rescued, Em?
04:19I hid something in the design.
04:23Your initials and now little graces.
04:26Hold them right into the fabric.
04:33And that's gonna give him a long runway?
04:35Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:39Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:41Mom, you ain't have to.
04:42You're going to that private school.
04:43No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:45This job will keep us afloat.
04:46I love you, Mom.
04:47I love you, Mom.
04:48Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company.
04:52After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
04:59Aaronuo-
05:11Your twitter-
05:14I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:30Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
05:41What the hell?
05:42Listen up, everyone.
05:43Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:46Effective immediately.
05:48You can't just do that.
05:50She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:52There are laws against this.
05:54Vic worked while in labor.
05:56She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
06:00Maternity leave, medical insurance,
06:02these preggles are bleeding us dry.
06:06Everything okay here?
06:10Great timing.
06:11Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:14Clear out your desk now.
06:16Clear 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.
06:31So many times.
06:32Whoa.
06:33That's ancient history.
06:35The board wants fresh blood.
06:36And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
06:40What?
06:41What?
06:42I'm the one who?
06:43Mia, you.
06:44Feel that curve?
06:45That's your signature.
06:46That's your signature.
06:47That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
06:48How could you?
06:50How could you?
06:51I taught you everything you know.
06:52I wish things were different, Vic.
06:53I wish things were different, Vic.
06:54I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
06:56I wish things were different, Vic.
06:57I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
06:58I wish it was different, Vic.
06:59No, it's bad for you.
07:00That's what makes it by one-time.
07:01Let me tell you what I want to love.
07:02It's a bad idea.
07:03I've gone wrong.
07:04I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:05But I'm not in a bad mood.
07:06Don't start to tell you about your everything.
07:07It's a bad mood.
07:08That's when I'm in a bad mood.
07:09I'm not in a bad mood.
07:10You're a bad mood.
07:11I know.
07:12Okay, you're a bad mood.
07:13But you're a bad mood.
07:14I don't know a bad mood.
07:15How could you?
07:16You're a bad mood.
07:17I mean, you're a bad mood.
07:18I'm a bad mood.
07:19I don't know.
07:20This is no good mood.
07:23What happens to my team?
07:31Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:37Things got so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:41Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:45These jobs are their lifelines.
07:47Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:50You can't just throw them away.
07:53Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:56No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection, but hey, that's corporate America for you.
08:02Or we can shift the math.
08:06You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:11Think of it as taking 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.
08:54You say you're so busy.
08:55You're welcome, babe.
08:55You're welcome, all may I have verschiedene guys.
08:57Five grand?
09:08That's my severance package after 15 years.
09:11That's what I'm worth to them.
09:26Careful.
09:27I got you.
09:34Vincent?
09:36Vincent 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 Maison Laveau's Milan collection.
10:02How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:12Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:18What are you getting at exactly?
10:20I'm talking about you and me.
10:26Partners.
10:28Genius.
10:29My money.
10:30No corporate BS.
10:32No one holding you back.
10:34I've got a baby to think about now.
10:40And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:44Just saying.
10:45Vincent Chevalier.
10:46Wow.
10:47You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis strolling into the office.
10:50Got your spy here?
10:51Don't mind me.
10:52I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing.
10:56Triple her salary, corner office.
10:57You know.
10:58Before the vultures at LV or Chanel swoop in.
10:59Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:00Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:02It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head-to-toe.
11:03I mean the jacket, it's Dutch美容.
11:26victoria's designs head to toe i mean the jacket it's victoria's spring collection right
11:34the earrings it's victoria's collaboration with cartier if her work is so far beneath you
11:40maybe you should just strip shit shit shit what are you talking about victoria designed all of this
11:49actually those were my designs
11:57what did you just say the spring collection the cartier pieces i designed them under your
12:08supervision of course but they came from me oops looks like you've been backing the wrong horse
12:13vincent i thought you were better than this man then explain my signature on the original sketch
12:22dated six months ago
12:24so what sketches get passed around all the time it doesn't prove squat maybe she was your little
12:34what do they call it dress designer and the logo
12:39the ew woven in victoria's signature mark it's been on every major piece she's designed for years
12:48explain it make me shut up
12:51it's funny all those pieces from the milan collection that everyone's losing their work
13:01they all have ew and gw so new too victoria's daughter is emily winter
13:08her newborn is grace winter it's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear
13:15in all your designs mia is there a special ew and gw in your life too
13:20well mia tell them tell them you designed this tell them you saved milan
13:27the logo it's adapted based on traditional motifs you lying little bitch that promotion is for saving the company

13:55see one m flipped one upright it's not for grace or emily
14:04it's mine
14:07that is absolutely ridiculous
14:09oh my god she's right it does look more like two m's

19:58I have been in love with Victoria winter since high school
20:00I've followed your career from a distant end
20:04you know
20:05Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top
20:07it's just so predictably desperate
20:11you really don't understand real talent, do you?
20:13for those of you who don't know me
20:15I'm Vincent Chevalier
20:17CEO of Chevenne
20:19yes
20:21I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school
20:23I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:27Your brilliance.
20:29Your principles.
20:30Your 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 going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:43But in the meantime, what I will do
20:45is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:50She won't let you down, boss.
20:52You'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.
21:09Holy 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.
21:51Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:55This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:59She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
22:03And Victoria had the nerve to pass them 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.
22:22That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:25Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:29That's enough, Holly.
22:33Everyone 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.
22:41Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:44That'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?
22:56How dare you?
23:00Mr. Jenkins, Mr. Michaels, it's a disaster in there.
23:04There's something wrong with the collection.
23:05It's the fabric.
23:07Not now.
23:08The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights.
23:16The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:19We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:22Is this some kind of sick joke, Maisel Mavale?
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.
23:41Mom, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with backstabbing vultures.
23:47Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:50Maisel Mavale 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, is 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, home.
24:13Billions.
24:14Billions.
24:14Fix this.
24:38Now.
24:39Now.
24:41How?
24:42The 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.
25:06Miss Winter, how do you respond of accusations over design theft?
25:22Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:26Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:30And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:34We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:36What do you want, Mia?
26:01Vic, I really need your help.
26:08Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
26:12Look, I know you're furious.
26:15I would be too.
26:16But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
26:19What 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.
26:27Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just help us out here.
26:34Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:37Yes, absolutely.
26:38And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:41Please, Vic, not for me.
26:43For them.
26:45For it's good.
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.
27:17Not for you.
27:22Oh, my God.
27:29It's Victoria Winter.
27:31The nuclear VEC.
27:32I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:35Now.
27:42I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:44Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:47Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:49Will 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?
28:17I'm not helping them.
28:22I'm helping you.
28:24I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:27I have a design I've been saving.
28:30Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:33It's yours now.
28:35I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:38Then what do you want?
28:41You.
28:44What?
28:44Your talent.
28:50Your vision.
28:52Come and work as you've been.
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.
29:12I 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 out.
29:21I want me back.
29:24Don't ever change.
29:26I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:31She's doing it in minutes.
29:34What would have taken us hours?
29:36Whoa.
29:37No wonder they call her the nuclear vic.
29:39It'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.
29:53You made it.
29:54Well, do we pull the plug or not?
30:10We're good.
30:10Everything's back on track.
30:13See?
30:14I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:16You've got twice your talent.
30:19Yeah, right.
30:21This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:23You need to fix this, just not make them.
30:33To Victoria.
30:35The real hero of the night.
30:47Mom, you're insane.
30:49I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:52I couldn't have done it without you.
30:56You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
31:01Well, well, still hanging around.
31:08I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
31:12Fraud.
31:13Pauline, 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, don't forget about Miranda and Pauline.
31:30I won't.
31:31Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
31:38Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
31:45Speaking of new beginnings, Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:50Victoria, I 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.
32:04I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress, the one you made from scratch.
32:15I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
32:22You remember that?
32:23I remember everything.
32:25I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:35Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:37We were married.
32:40And then you were.
32:41And then you were building your career.
32:44Timing was never right.
32:48Until now.
32:55I have been waiting for 20 years to do this.
33:15I should probably get this.
33:25Mia?
33:31God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:34That Milan disaster you turned around?
33:36Absolute magic.
33:37And now I have an opportunity that could put you on the map for good.
33:41Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars' red carpet.
33:47Sean Gosling?
33:49The Sean Gosling?
33:50The very one.
33:51Three-time Oscar winner, People's Sexiest Man Alive.
33:55And if we play our cards right, the next face of Maison Nouveau is a menswear.
34:00They're taking pitches now.
34:02If he picks yours, this changes everything.
34:05For you.
34:06For the brand.
34:07Where it is, Joven'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 of Victoria's help.
34:38Miranda and Felina are gone too.
34:40I'm completely on my own.
34:42And if Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria, maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over her.
34:53Thanks for meeting me.
35:16I know things are complicated between us.
35:18You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
35:20Cut to the chase.
35:25We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tux.
35:27Miranda and Pauline are also on the team.
35:29Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:30She can handle this without me.
35:32Please, wait.
35:32There's more to it.
35:33After 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.
35:43Am I serious?
35:44Pauline's due any day now.
35:46Trust me.
35:47I know.
35:48This project is our only shot.
35:49If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them both.
35:53Have you worked with Sean before?
35:54No, but I've heard you have.
35:58Ages ago, I did a jacket for him for the Met Gala.
36:03Actually, I was sketching in your tuxedo concept for him right before I left Maison L'Avon.
36:07Really?
36:08What concept?
36:12Well.
36:13Perfect if 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?
36:39I do.
36:40Actually, I took them with me when I left Maison L'Avon.
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?
37:02Of course, Vic.
37:04Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
37:06Take all the time you need.
37:12Mia, don't make me regret trusting you.
37:18Again.
37:18Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:38Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:42The Sean Gosselin one with the black satin lapels?
37:46That's the one.
37:47Can 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.
37:59Mom, are you okay?
38:07Mom, are you okay?
38:12Miranda?
38:14Vic?
38:18Mom, Mom, what's going on?
38:22Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:25Miranda, what happened?
38:27Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:30Bills don't pay themselves.
38:32You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
38:38Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the gossling project.
38:42What?
38:44Is that a story she's spinning now?
38:48After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:52No severance, no cover, nothing.
38:55Just gone.
38:56That's completely illegal.
38:59Company lawyer said that we all suddenly violated some buried performance clause.
39:04All at once.
39:06What are the odds, right?
39:08And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours diner.
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 director title.
39:34She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me.
39:38Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:41What?
39:43That bitch!
39:44This ends now.
39:53Damn it!
39:59Miss Michael, he's just arrived from Milan.
40:02We need approval by name for that.
40:03Can't you see I'm working on something important?
40:14What are y'all looking at?
40:17Get back to work!
40:19Victoria would never treat us.
40:20I heard that.
40:24You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:27Then where is she now?
40:29Gone.
40:30Now I'm in charge.
40:31And if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:34Well, at least you could actually design it.
40:41What 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.
40:59Now.
41:04This is garbage.
41:08Absolute garbage.
41:10I just need a little more time.
41:12We'll have more time.
41:13This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
41:15If Shuf Ben gets this deal instead of us.
41:21What's that?
41:27It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:30I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
41:35Get me when you design 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.
42:05Right on cue.
42:16Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:18Miranda 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 spring the trap.
42:43You're early.
42:44Vic.
42:45I really need that sketch.
42:47I said I'd help.
42:56Not hand over my design.
42:58Polly's all over me about this.
43:01If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
43:06Still lying, Mia.
43:07You 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.
43:17She's such a snake.
43:21Vic, my stomach is killing me.
43:23Can you run to the funnel and see and get something, please?
43:27Fine.
43:28But don't touch anything.
43:29Sorry, man.
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.
45:04I'm Miranda.
45:05Your husband's dead.
45:07Handled.
45:09And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
45:12Mr. Chirulia, 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.
45:24Mr. Chirulia, 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.
45:38It'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 to say.
46:01I don't know what to say.
46:32And you're still here.
46:51Final tweaks.
46:52The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:58You've got Grace to sleep.
47:02Yeah.
47:04And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
47:10Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
47:18Remember, smile.
47:19We're about to make history.
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.
47:43I 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.
48:03My company is thriving because of your generosity.
48:09Didn'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.
48:31And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:35Pregnant women talk, you know.
48:38Three X and 3s in a minus video.
48:41What's next?
48:41The bake sale?
48:44Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:45You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:48And what real loyalty looks like.
48:51Sean, glad you could make it.
49:05We have something very special to show you.
49:11Vic.
49:14I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
49:18Congratulations.
49:19Thank you, Sean.
49:21It's good to see you.
49:23Let's begin the pitches.
49:26You ready to lose?
49:27You're out of your league.
49:29You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:39First up, Mia McMichael, Maison 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 Maison Laveau.
50:34The next day.
50:37This is what you planned all along.
50:39Wasn't it?
50:42What the hell did you people put me in?
50:52Are you trying to kill me?
50:54Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk. Who designed this tuxedo?
50:59Did you even read the brief?
51:03I mean, you must have read the brief. It's not complicated. It says no synthetic blends.
51:10I mean, it must be some kind of mistake. Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
51:15A mistake? I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:19Victoria, please, tell 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.
51:39And that's why Victoria is the best. She actually pays attention.
51:43After reviewing all of the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:47The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Paul Neen.
51:54Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip-up.
51:56Mia's design was the front runner all along.
51:59That's why they picked her first.
52:05Maybe everyone should see this.
52:08Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:20Not so near low. Even for you.
52:26Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
52:29So you know, I would be supporting Victoria's case for design theft.
52:38Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:40We're suspending all collaborations.
52:43Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:56You're blacklisted.
53:02Victoria, please.
53:03I'll do anything. Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
53:20You made your choices, Holly. Now you live with them.
53:24You finally went too far.
53:34Sean 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.
53:56And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
54:03Mom, you might want to see this.
54:12Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:20Happy birthday to you!
54:26Guys, look!
54:30Maison Laveau on the brink.
54:32Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:35Ouch!
54:37I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:39It's strange, isn't it?
54:42We gave them everything.
54:47Late nights, weekends, all the best years and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:53Now it's all crashing down, I thought I'd feel vindicated.
54:58Honestly, it's a weird mix.
55:01Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
55:06Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
55:09Look at this!
55:10Joven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
55:17Victoria, this is you!
55:20You did this!
55:22Here'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.
55:31Careful, Vincent. You almost forgot the best part.
55:35Victoria Winter.
55:36Will you marry me?
55:37Yes!
55:38A thousand times yes!
55:39Woohoo!
55:40.
55:41.
55:42.
55:45.
55:46.
55:47.
55:49.
55:50.
55:51.
55:53.
55:54.
55:55.
55:57.
55:58.
55:59Yes. A thousand times, yes.
56:22Happy birthday ever!
56:29You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:44I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:47When word got out you left. Clients failed.
56:52The board freaked. Numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
56:57You steered Maison Laveau into this storm, Holly.
57:01I know. I know.
57:07My father...
57:10The stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
57:14I destroyed everything.
57:16I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
57:22I didn't mean for it to end like this.
57:27Maison Laveau isn't dead. I bought it. Last week.
57:32The brand. The archives. Even the debt.
57:36It's part of Given now.
57:38If you want it, why would you do that?
57:41To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:46You win, Victoria. I hope you do better than I did.
57:53I'll do it differently. Goodbye, Holly.
58:02Miss Winter, I just... I wanted to thank you.
58:20Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
58:25I can keep working and have my baby.
58:30You changed everything.
58:33Congratulations.
58:35Wishing you and your little one every happens.
58:47Ready?
58:48Always.
59:03And now, Jovan's new collection designed by Victoria Wintour and your team.
59:09Stay.
59:10Stay.
59:11Stay.
59:12Stay.
59:13Stay.
59:14Stay.
59:15Stay.
59:16Stay.
59:17Stay.
59:18Stay.
59:19Stay.
59:20Stay.
59:21Stay.
59:22Stay.
59:27Stay.
59:29Stay.
59:30Stay.
59:32Stay.
59:33We're not just talking about this competition.
59:35You've got points for me, but I'm mixing things right now.
