00:00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:14The system crashed mid-upload.
00:00:16Half the collection is the wrong season.
00:00:18Wrong everything.
00:00:20No.
00:00:22I'm on runways in 48 hours.
00:00:26If productions start with these batch designs,
00:00:28we're all dead.
00:00:30Not just fire, we're dead.
00:00:32Company collapses, our careers are over.
00:00:35Come out here and talk to us.
00:00:37We have 8 million tied up in this collection.
00:00:40I have a bastard.
00:00:42Right now, one word for me.
00:00:44Your industry poison.
00:00:58Enough.
00:01:02Mick!
00:01:04Mia, Japanese Indigo.
00:01:07Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
00:01:11Pauline, handle those ultras.
00:01:18Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
00:01:22It's 28 minutes.
00:01:24The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
00:01:2627 now.
00:01:28Tick tock.
00:01:29I'm done.
00:01:30Crisis averted.
00:01:35I swear to God, you're not human.
00:01:4427 minutes.
00:01:46Holy shit.
00:01:47I'm done. Crisis averted.
00:01:52I swear to God, you're not human.
00:01:5427 minutes.
00:01:56Holy shit. Pre-orders are flooding in.
00:01:59This will shatter every record.
00:02:07Vet, are you okay?
00:02:11Just practice some heck.
00:02:13It's nothing to...
00:02:14Oh my God, your water broke.
00:02:25Mom, we're seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
00:02:31Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
00:02:35Dad called. He wanted to know if he should come, but...
00:02:40I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since...
00:02:43He decided that his assistants said he's more comfortable than ours.
00:02:48That's my girl.
00:02:58Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
00:03:01But there's a condition.
00:03:04We need to slash costs immediately.
00:03:09Layoffs?
00:03:13That's it without leave.
00:03:15Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
00:03:19Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster...
00:03:24They get immunity.
00:03:25In fact, um...
00:03:26They deserve a promotion.
00:03:32No way, Miss Victoria Wintour saved the company, since she's not even there.
00:03:37Boss, the Milan collection crisis, a burden.
00:03:44Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:46Ew, you saved the entire collection? Impressive.
00:03:50Oh, actually...
00:03:52How about I make you the new creative director?
00:03:54Starting today.
00:03:55Oh my God, is this really happening?
00:04:00She's offering me Victoria's job?
00:04:02I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
00:04:10But, Victoria...
00:04:12Don't worry about her.
00:04:13That useless prego is so fired.
00:04:20You know that collection I just rescued, Ab?
00:04:24I hid something in the design.
00:04:27Your initials and now little graces.
00:04:30Hold them right into the topic.
00:04:32I hid, and that's going to be a Milan runway?
00:04:40Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:43Enough for your full tuition at private school.
00:04:46Mom, you ain't have to.
00:04:48We're going to that private school.
00:04:50No discussion.
00:04:52Your sister and I will manage just fine.
00:04:55This job will keep us afloat.
00:04:57I love you, Mom.
00:05:02Holy shit.
00:05:10Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company.
00:05:15After all these years in your shadow, Victoria,
00:05:17I'm finally taking what I deserve.
00:05:19Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
00:05:37Victoria Wintour is terminated.
00:05:51Effective immediately.
00:05:52You can't just do that.
00:05:55She's in the hospital having her baby.
00:05:58There are laws against this.
00:06:00Vic worked while in labor.
00:06:02She's the creative backbone of Ms. Olnagot.
00:06:05Maternity leave, medical insurance.
00:06:08These preggos are bleeding us dry.
00:06:09Everything okay here?
00:06:15Great timing.
00:06:18Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
00:06:21Clear out your desk now.
00:06:31You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
00:06:34I saved this company three times when your father could have been here.
00:06:38Three times.
00:06:39Well, that's ancient history.
00:06:45The word wants fresh blood.
00:06:48And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
00:06:56I'm the one who...
00:06:59Mia, you...
00:07:02Feel that curve.
00:07:04That's her signature.
00:07:06That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
00:07:07How could you?
00:07:13How could you?
00:07:14I taught you everything you know.
00:07:16I wish things were different, Vic.
00:07:27I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:30Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
00:07:44Things got so bad she had to get hair.
00:07:47Implants.
00:07:47Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
00:07:53These jobs are their lifelines, health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
00:07:58You can't just throw them away.
00:08:00Well, actually, legally speaking, no mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection, but hey, that's corporate America for you.
00:08:11Or we can shift the math.
00:08:14You sign.
00:08:16They stay.
00:08:16If the budget works out, think of it as taking one for the team.
00:08:25Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
00:08:28And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
00:08:31They can't lose their jobs.
00:08:37Come on, babe, because they don't care about them.
00:08:40Prove it.
00:08:40Come on, babe.
00:09:10That was my severed package after 15 years.
00:09:20That's what I'm worth to them.
00:09:36Careful.
00:09:37I got you.
00:09:40Vincent?
00:09:45Vincent Chevalier.
00:09:48Hi.
00:09:51High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:09:55So, it's true.
00:10:06Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Rizan Laveau's Milan collection.
00:10:13How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
00:10:24Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
00:10:27What are you getting at, exactly?
00:10:31I'm talking about you and me.
00:10:36Pardons.
00:10:37You're genius.
00:10:38You're genius.
00:10:40My money.
00:10:41No corporate BS.
00:10:44No one holding me back.
00:10:45I've got a baby to think about now.
00:10:52And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
00:10:59Just saying.
00:11:00Vincent Chevalier, wow.
00:11:06You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
00:11:12Got you, Spiky?
00:11:12Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing.
00:11:21Triple her salary, corner office.
00:11:25You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
00:11:29Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
00:11:31Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
00:11:36It's an interesting take to have, considering you're wearing Victoria's designs head-to-toe.
00:11:40I mean, the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
00:11:47The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Picardier.
00:11:50If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:57Shit, shit, shit.
00:11:58What are you talking about?
00:12:00Victoria designed all of this.
00:12:02Actually, those were my designs.
00:12:13What did you just say?
00:12:15The spring collection.
00:12:17The Cartier pieces.
00:12:19I designed them.
00:12:21Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
00:12:24Oops.
00:12:25Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
00:12:27I thought you were better than this, ma'am.
00:12:32Then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:43So what?
00:12:44Sketches get passed around all the time.
00:12:45It doesn't prove squat.
00:12:47Maybe she was your little, what do they call it?
00:12:50This designer?
00:12:52And the logo?
00:12:53The EW, woven in, Victoria's signature mark.
00:13:00It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:13:04Mommy, explain it.
00:13:05Make me shut up.
00:13:10It's funny.
00:13:11All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's in the museum have,
00:13:16they all have the EW and GW so they do.
00:13:19Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
00:13:23Her newborn is Grace Winter.
00:13:27It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
00:13:31Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
00:13:36Well, Mia, tell them.
00:13:37Tell them you designed this.
00:13:39Tell them you saved Milan.
00:13:41The logo, it's, it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:49You lying little bitch.
00:13:52That promotion is for saving the company.
00:13:58Look at the logo again.
00:14:00It's not EW or GW.
00:14:04It's actually two M's, M-M, for McMichael, my last name.
00:14:14See?
00:14:15One M flipped, one upright.
00:14:17It's not for Grace or Emily.
00:14:21It's mine.
00:14:23That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:25Oh my God, she's right.
00:14:28It does look more like two M's.
00:14:30Human, if you're a little bitch, you really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:38You learned well, Mia.
00:14:41Maybe too well.
00:14:43You'll regret this.
00:14:46Not Vincent.
00:14:48We don't have to sink to that level.
00:14:50Okay.
00:14:52I'm not be driving home, okay?
00:14:53Bye for hours outside.
00:14:55When I got this, you shouldn't be carrying it.
00:15:00Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:15:07Just take care of your manner of Paul being for you.
00:15:12That's right.
00:15:13Get the hell out of my company.
00:15:15Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
00:15:24Paul and Victoria.
00:15:25A VIP invitation passed fashionably.
00:15:31From row.
00:15:32I think you'll find it.
00:15:34Lightning.
00:15:43Every pregnant woman fired.
00:15:46All of us.
00:15:47Just like that.
00:15:48No severance.
00:15:51No warning.
00:15:52Nothing.
00:15:52But a box and a security escort.
00:16:00Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
00:16:04For termination people would practically pay for your sign and bonus made right in star.
00:16:09Now, about Paris fashion.
00:16:12Your designs are eagerly awaited.
00:16:17You should have kept your legs closed.
00:16:19Oh my god, mom.
00:16:30This is insane.
00:16:31I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:33Victoria Winter.
00:16:35It's a nuclear vehicle.
00:16:37Your mom's basically a legend.
00:16:38You know that, right?
00:16:40We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Levo.
00:16:44Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:47Wait, Maison Levo?
00:16:53Well, well.
00:16:54The Queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
00:16:57Brave of you to show up here.
00:16:59What's next?
00:17:00Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
00:17:03Let's go.
00:17:04Leaving so soon.
00:17:06You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:17:09Mommy, dear, has filled you in on your little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
00:17:15Mom, is that true?
00:17:22Don't worry.
00:17:23She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
00:17:27Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter.
00:17:30Still pretending she matters.
00:17:32My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:17:40If Maison Levo was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash and burn.
00:17:47Well, look at that.
00:17:48It seems entitlement runs in the family.
00:17:50Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
00:17:54That's got a sting, huh?
00:17:56Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
00:18:02Hey, good news.
00:18:03There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
00:18:07If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
00:18:11That's enough.
00:18:12You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
00:18:20You never belonged in this world.
00:18:23Look at her.
00:18:24A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
00:18:28That dress.
00:18:30It's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:34Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
00:18:38It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
00:18:41What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:18:47Remove that dress.
00:18:49We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
00:18:54Hey, stop it. Let go of my mom.
00:18:57And let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
00:19:01Take your hands off her now.
00:19:05Instant.
00:19:11You're dismissed.
00:19:21You all right?
00:19:25You all right?
00:19:27I'm flied.
00:19:28Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
00:19:31The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
00:19:34What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
00:19:35That knockoff that you're so here to trash her for?
00:19:43It's Chauvin.
00:19:45Look at the tour.
00:19:47Winter collection.
00:19:49Not even released yet.
00:19:51Price tag?
00:19:53300,000.
00:19:54Wow.
00:19:56You gave her that.
00:19:57That's right.
00:19:59You did.
00:20:01I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
00:20:05Oh my God, everyone mystery solved.
00:20:08Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy.
00:20:11Mr. Billionaire is not a white knight.
00:20:14He's your walking trust fund.
00:20:15Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
00:20:20It's just so predictably desperate.
00:20:27You really don't understand real talent, do you?
00:20:32For those of you who don't know me,
00:20:34I'm Vincent Chevalier, CEO of Jevent.
00:20:38And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
00:20:46I have followed your career from a distance for years.
00:20:50Your brilliance, your principles, your passion.
00:20:56Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
00:20:59Mom, did you know about this?
00:21:02I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
00:21:05But in the meantime, what I will do
00:21:08is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
00:21:13She won't let you down, boss.
00:21:18You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
00:21:21She's nothing but a has-been.
00:21:24The show is about to start.
00:21:26Your seats are waiting.
00:21:33Holy shit.
00:21:34The industry golden boy and the creative powerhouse together?
00:21:38Talk about a power couple.
00:21:40I can run the entire industry.
00:21:43This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:45Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:47Have you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
00:22:04Some talents you recognize immediately.
00:22:09Some people do.
00:22:10Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
00:22:18I have an important announcement.
00:22:20This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
00:22:23She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
00:22:29It's true.
00:22:30She took my work and passed it off as her own.
00:22:33I slaved away on those designs, day and night.
00:22:37And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
00:22:42That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
00:22:50Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
00:22:54That's enough, Holly.
00:22:55Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
00:23:01Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
00:23:06Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
00:23:10That's her real design strategy.
00:23:12Stop it, Holly.
00:23:13You're embarrassing yourself.
00:23:15And those kids she's so proud of?
00:23:17Who knows who their real fathers are?
00:23:21How dare you?
00:23:22It's a disaster in there.
00:23:29There's something wrong with the collection.
00:23:31It's the fabric.
00:23:32Not now.
00:23:38The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights.
00:23:42The dresses are literally falling apart.
00:23:45We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
00:23:48Is this some kind of sick joke, Maison Moval?
00:23:50Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
00:23:53This is completely unprofessional.
00:23:56I have 10 million invested in this collection.
00:23:59This is breach of contract.
00:24:03It's actually fixable.
00:24:06Oh, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with backstabbing vultures.
00:24:11Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
00:24:16Maison Moval appears to be inputting underneath new leadership.
00:24:19Sources say the entire collection may be canceled minutes before showtime.
00:24:23A question on everyone's mind?
00:24:25Is this the end for everyone's prestigious fashion books?
00:24:28This show doesn't happen.
00:24:34You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
00:24:37We're talking buildings, homie.
00:24:39Buildings.
00:24:40Buildings.
00:24:40Buildings.

00:30:05What are these doing in minutes?
00:30:07What would have taken us hours?
00:30:09Whoa. No wonder they call her the nuclear pick.
00:30:13It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
00:30:17The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
00:30:25Five minutes till showtime. We made it.
00:30:35Well? Do we pull the plug or not?
00:30:43We're good. Everything's back on track.
00:30:45See? I knew firing Victoria was the right call. You've got twice your talent.
00:30:51Yeah. Right.
00:30:55This is exactly why I promoted you. Your business is not Nathan.
00:31:05To Victoria.
00:31:09The real hero of the night.
00:31:21Mom, you're insane.
00:31:23I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
00:31:27Couldn't have done it without you.
00:31:29You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
00:31:41Well, well. Still hanging around.
00:31:43I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party. Fraud.
00:31:49Holly, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
00:31:53What are you talking about?
00:31:55Just ask the models. Any of them.
00:31:58Oh, and Mia. Don't forget about our agreement. About Miranda and Pauline.
00:32:04I hope.
00:32:10Two new beginnings at Chauvin?
00:32:20Speaking of new beginnings...
00:32:22Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
00:32:26I want to help. With your education.
00:32:30What?
00:32:32Vincent, that's too much. We barely know each other.
00:32:36Victoria...
00:32:38I've known you since we were 17.
00:32:40I remember...
00:32:42I remember...
00:32:44Watching you win that regional competition.
00:32:46In that silver dress.
00:32:48The one you made from scratch.
00:32:50I saw...
00:32:52The way your eyes lit up.
00:32:54When you talked about...
00:32:56Changing the fashion world.
00:32:58Can you remember that?
00:33:00I remember everything.
00:33:02I...
00:33:04Have followed your career.
00:33:06All these years, just...
00:33:08Hoping that our paths would cross again.
00:33:10Why didn't you ever reach out?
00:33:12We were married.
00:33:14And then you were...
00:33:16And then you were building your career.
00:33:18And...
00:33:20Timing was...
00:33:22Was never right.
00:33:24Until now.
00:33:26I've been waiting...
00:33:2820 years to do that.
00:33:30I've been waiting...
00:33:32I've been waiting...
00:33:3420 years to do that.
00:33:36I've been waiting...
00:33:3820 years to do that.
00:33:52I should...
00:33:54Probably get this.
00:33:56...
00:33:58...
00:34:00...
00:34:02Mia?
00:34:04God, I was so right about firing Victoria.

00:40:06Mia
00:40:07FFRONTRODSEOTE
00:40:09old seat when Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink. Too busy admiring her shiny new
00:40:16creative director title. She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me. Telling me her
00:40:23draw depended on me helping her. What? That bitch. This ends now.
00:40:32Damn it.
00:40:43My name is Michael. He's just arrived from Milan. We need approval by name.
00:40:49Didn't you see I'm working on something important?
00:40:51What? What are you all looking at? Get back to work.
00:41:04Victoria would never turn this.
00:41:08I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect? Then where is she now? Gone. Now I'm in charge
00:41:16and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
00:41:20Well, at least you've got a key designer.
00:41:27What the hell is going on here?
00:41:29Just a creative disagreement. Everything's under control.
00:41:33I'll say bitch. Tell me you have something presentable.
00:41:40Of course. I'm just finalizing some details.
00:41:42Show me.
00:41:44It's all quite ready.
00:41:45Now.
00:41:46This is garbage.
00:41:54Absolute garbage.
00:41:56I just need a little more time.
00:41:58We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
00:42:01If Shufin gets this deal instead of us.
00:42:07What's that?
00:42:13It's just some inspiration.
00:42:15I record it for the design.
00:42:18I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:21Get me when I'm just like, wait till morning.
00:42:24Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:26I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:39I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:53Right on cue.
00:42:54I need that sketch ASAP.
00:43:05Miranta and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:43:09The absolute nerve of this woman.
00:43:11Well, she'll get her sketch.
00:43:15And that's when we spring the trap.
00:43:17You're early.
00:43:31I really need that sketch.
00:43:34I said I'd help.
00:43:44Not hand over my design.
00:43:46Polly's all over me about this.
00:43:49If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:43:53Still lying, Mia.
00:43:56You never learn.
00:43:57Guess it's payback time.
00:44:00So, do you want my help or not?
00:44:02I can walk you through it.
00:44:04Your design could be just as good.
00:44:06She's such a snake.
00:44:09Vic, my stomach is killing me.
00:44:12Can you run to the funnel and see and get something, please?
00:44:15Fine.
00:44:16Don't touch anything.
00:44:18Sorry, then.
00:44:46Survival of the fiddles.
00:44:48You just let her take your work?
00:45:02She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
00:45:07You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
00:45:11Go after the same clients.
00:45:13Show them what real design looks like.
00:45:16We're not out yet.
00:45:18Oh, there's a revolution, bro.
00:45:37Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
00:45:39You're welcome, Mom.
00:45:47I want you and your team as your van.
00:45:52Full creative control.
00:45:55Oh, Miranda, your husband's dead, handled.
00:45:58And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
00:46:04Mr. Chevalier, I...
00:46:06I'm Pauline.
00:46:08Your sister is in good hands.
00:46:10The best heart surgeon in the country.
00:46:13She's already prepping for her next surgery.
00:46:16Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
00:46:18Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
00:46:20Don't thank me.
00:46:21Thank Victoria.
00:46:22I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:46:26Vincent, I...
00:46:27I don't even know what to say.
00:46:31It's about time.
00:46:33You all get what you deserve.
00:46:34zenie andurer...
00:46:37______
00:46:40______
00:46:40______
00:46:41______
00:46:41______
00:46:51______
00:47:22We're here.
00:47:42And you're still here.
00:47:44Final tweaks.
00:47:45The pitch goes out tomorrow.
00:47:47You've got Grace to sleep.
00:47:55Yeah.
00:47:58And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
00:48:03Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
00:48:06Remember, smile.
00:48:13We're about to make the sleep.
00:48:17Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:48:20We don't follow friends.
00:48:22We create them.
00:48:23Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcala moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
00:48:37I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
00:48:41What is that bitch doing here?
00:48:53Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
00:48:57My company is thriving because of your generosity.
00:49:03I didn't expect to see you here.
00:49:05I thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
00:49:12I multitask.
00:49:13Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:49:18You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in letters.
00:49:22The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:49:26And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
00:49:31Pregnant women talk, you know.
00:49:33Three excellent employees and a viable CEO.
00:49:36What's next?
00:49:36A big sale?
00:49:39Laugh all you want, Holly.
00:49:41We're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
00:49:44And what real loyalty looks like.
00:49:52Sean, glad you could make it.
00:50:01We have something very special to show you.
00:50:06Vic.
00:50:10I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
00:50:14Congratulations.
00:50:16Thank you, Sean.
00:50:17It's good to see you.
00:50:19Let's begin the pictures.
00:50:22You ready to lose?
00:50:24You're out of your league.
00:50:26You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
00:50:36First up, me and McMichael, Maison Laveau.
00:50:52Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:51:09Beautiful work.
00:51:11Both themes.
00:51:16We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:51:18After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
00:51:29Maison Laveau.
00:51:31Oh my god.
00:51:34Of course.
00:51:36This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
00:51:39What the hell did you people put me in?
00:51:51Are you trying to kill me?
00:51:53Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
00:51:56Who designed this tuxedo?
00:51:58Did you even read the brief?
00:51:59I mean, you must have read the brief.
00:52:05It's not complicated.
00:52:06It says no synthetic blend.
00:52:09I mean, it must be some kind of mistake.
00:52:12Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
00:52:15A mistake?
00:52:16I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:52:19Victoria, please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your last.
00:52:24I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
00:52:36I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
00:52:39And that's why Victoria's the best.
00:52:41She actually pays attention.
00:52:43After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
00:52:48The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:52:51Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip-up.
00:52:57Nia's design was the front runner all along.
00:53:00That's why they picked her first.
00:53:05Maybe everyone should see this.
00:53:13Wait, Nia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:53:16That's a new low, even for you.
00:53:27Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
00:53:31So you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design night.
00:53:38Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:53:40We're suspending all collaborations.
00:53:53Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
00:53:57You're blacklisted.
00:54:03Victoria, please.
00:54:04Victoria, please.
00:54:15I'll do anything.
00:54:17Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
00:54:22You made your choices, Holly.
00:54:24Now you live with that.
00:54:28Why don't you go too far?
00:54:29Sean Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Joben.
00:54:41Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
00:54:44To the best comeback in fashion history, and to the women who made it happen.
00:54:58And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
00:55:05Mom, you might want to see this.
00:55:08Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:55:22Happy birthday to you!
00:55:24Happy birthday to you!
00:55:28Guys, look!
00:55:32Maison Laveau on the brink.
00:55:35Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:55:38Ouch!
00:55:39I guess karma has a sense of humor.
00:55:42It's strange, isn't it?
00:55:48I gave them everything.
00:55:50Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
00:55:57Now it's all crashing down.
00:55:59I thought I'd feel vindicated.
00:56:02Honestly, it's a weird mix.
00:56:03It's relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
00:56:09Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
00:56:12Look at this!
00:56:13Jevent pushes for pay, leave, and parental support across all industries.
00:56:21Victoria, this is you.
00:56:23You did this.
00:56:26Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers.
00:56:31Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
00:56:35Be careful, Vincent.
00:56:37You almost forgot the best part.
00:56:51Victoria Windsor.
00:56:56Will you marry me?
00:56:57Yes!
00:57:02Yes!
00:57:03A thousand times, yes!
00:57:04Woo!
00:57:05Yeah!
00:57:06Woo!
00:57:07Yeah!
00:57:25Best ever!
00:57:26You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
00:57:47I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
00:57:51When word got out you left.
00:57:53Clients failed.
00:57:54Clients failed. The board freaked. Numbers tanked.
00:57:58I couldn't stop it.
00:58:01You stood me as on the bow into this storm, Holly.
00:58:08I know. I know.
00:58:12My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
00:58:19I destroyed everything.
00:58:20I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
00:58:29I didn't mean to pretend like this.
00:58:32Maison Laveau isn't dead.
00:58:34I bought it.
00:58:36Last week.
00:58:37The brand.
00:58:39The archives.
00:58:40Even the debt.
00:58:41It's part of J'Ven now.
00:58:44You blind. Why would you do that?
00:58:47To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
00:58:55You win, Victoria.
00:58:57I hope you do better than I did.
00:59:00I'll do it differently.
00:59:04Goodbye, Holly.
00:59:05Miss Wintour, I just, I want to thank you.
00:59:26Because of your campaign, my company gave me maturity leave.
00:59:32I can keep working and have my baby.
00:59:37You changed everything.
00:59:40Congratulations.
00:59:42Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
00:59:54Ready?
00:59:55Always.
01:00:10And now, J'Ven's new collection, designed by Victoria, Wintour, and Moutinho.
01:00:16Wishing you and your little one every last minute on earth.
