00:00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:14The system crashed mid-upload.
00:00:16Half the collection is the wrong season.
00:00:18We're on everything.
00:00:20No.
00:00:22We're on runways in 48 hours.
00:00:26If production starts with these batch designs, we'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 corruption.
00:00:40I have a bastard.
00:00:42Right now, one word for me, your industry poison.
00:00:52Enough.
00:01:01Vic!
00:01:03Mia, Japanese indigo.
00:01:07Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
00:01:11Pauline, handle those ultras.
00:01:15Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
00:01:21It's 28 minutes?
00:01:23The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
00:01:2627 now.
00:01:28Tick tock.
00:01:49I'm done.
00:01:50Crisis averted.
00:01:51I swear to god, you're not human.
00:01:5427 minutes.
00:01:56Holy shit.
00:01:57Pre-orders are flooding in.
00:01:59This will shatter every record.
00:02:07Vic?
00:02:08Are you okay?
00:02:09Just...frax and hicks, nothing to...
00:02:13Oh my god, your water broke.
00:02:14Mom, you're seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
00:02:31Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
00:02:34No.
00:02:35Dad called.
00:02:36He wanted to know if he should come, but...
00:02:40I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since he decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
00:02:47That's my girl.
00:02:48Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
00:02:49But there's a condition.
00:02:50We need to slash costs immediately.
00:02:54Layoffs?
00:02:55Layoffs?
00:02:56That's it without leave.
00:02:57Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
00:03:01Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Malan disaster, they get immunity.
00:03:02In fact, they deserve a promotion.
00:03:03They deserve a promotion.
00:03:04Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:03:05No way this Victoria Wintors is going to end up in the world.
00:03:06No way this Victoria Wintors is going to end up in the world.
00:03:07We need to slash costs immediately.
00:03:08Layoffs?
00:03:09That's it without leave.
00:03:10Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
00:03:11Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Malan disaster, they get immunity.
00:03:26In fact, they deserve a promotion.
00:03:30No way this Victoria Wintors saved the company since she's not even there.
00:03:37Boss, the Malan collection crisis?
00:03:43Averted.
00:03:44Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:46You, you saved the entire collection?
00:03:48Impressive.
00:03:49Oh, actually, how about I make you the new creative director starting today?
00:03:55Oh, my God, is this really happening?
00:03:59She's offering me Victoria's job?
00:04:02I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
00:04:06But, Victoria...
00:04:08Don't worry about her.
00:04:09I'm not useless.
00:04:10I'm gonna just have fire.
00:04:11You know that collection I just rescued?
00:04:12I hid something in the design.
00:04:14Your initials, and now little graces.
00:04:15Hold them right into the fabric.
00:04:16I can't bring back to the Mulan runway?
00:04:17Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:18And I've got to bring back to the Mulan runway.
00:04:19Enough for your full tuition of private school.
00:04:20Mom, you don't have to.
00:04:21I'm going to go.
00:04:22I can't bring back to the Mulan runway.
00:04:24I can't bring back to...
00:04:25I can't bring back to the Mulan runway?
00:04:27I could.
00:04:29I can't bring back to the Mulan runway.
00:04:31Can I mean, that's a little extra?
00:04:32You're not alone!
00:04:33Even back to the Mulan runway?
00:04:34You're falling.
00:04:35I can't bring back to the Mulan runway.
00:04:37and that's going to give him a long runway?
00:04:40Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:43Enough for your full tuition of private school.
00:04:46Mom, you don't have to.
00:04:48You'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.
00:05:07Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company.
00:05:14After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
00:05:19Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
00:05:45What the hell?
00:05:47Listen up, everyone.
00:05:48Victoria Wintour is terminated.
00:05:51Effective immediately.
00:05:53You can't just do that.
00:05:55She's in the hospital having her baby.
00:05:58They're a loss against this.
00:06:00Vic worked while in labor.
00:06:02She's the creative backbone of Maison L'Aveau.
00:06:05Maternity leave, medical insurance.
00:06:08These preggos are bleeding us dry.
00:06:11Everything okay here?
00:06:15Great timing.
00:06:17Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
00:06:20Clear out your desk now.
00:06:31You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
00:06:33I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll.
00:06:38Three times.
00:06:41Well, that's ancient history.
00:06:45The board wants fresh blood.
00:06:48And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
00:06:51I'm the one who...
00:06:56I'm the one who...
00:06:58Mia, you...
00:07:02Feel that curve.
00:07:04That's her signature.
00:07:06That's what makes it Maison L'Aveau.
00:07:12How could you?
00:07:13I taught you everything you know.
00:07:22I wish things were different, Vic.
00:07:27I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:30What happens to my team?
00:07:37Miranda 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 loo.
00:07:53These jobs are their lifelines.
00:07:55Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
00:07:58You can't just throw them away.
00:08:01Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
00:08:04No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection.
00:08:07But hey, that's corporate America for you.
00:08:11Or we can shift the math.
00:08:13You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
00:08:19Think of it as taking one for the team.
00:08:24Miranda'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 care about them.
00:08:40Prove it.
00:08:43Prove it.
00:08:44And I'll take you.
00:08:53Prove it.
00:08:55Prove it.
00:08:57People.
00:08:57Live.
00:08:58All right.
00:09:02I come on.
00:09:04I come on.
00:09:06I come on.
00:09:08Sit in.
00:09:11Listen, let's go.
00:09:11That's what I severed to package after 15 years, that's what I'm worth to them.
00:09:22Be careful, I got you.
00:09:39Vincent?
00:09:46Vincent Chevalier?
00:09:48Hi.
00:09:51High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:10:04So, it's true.
00:10:08Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Lisanne LeBeau's Milan collection.
00:10:17How 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.
00:10:29What are you getting at exactly?
00:10:32I'm talking about you and me.
00:10:36Harms.
00:10:38You're genius.
00:10:39My money.
00:10:40No corporate BS.
00:10:41No 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.
00:10:58Just saying.
00:10:59Vincent Chevalier?
00:11:00Wow.
00:11:01You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis strolling into the office.
00:11:10Got your spy here.
00:11:11Don't mind me.
00:11:12I'm just giving Victoria here.
00:11:17Soft landing.
00:11:18Triple her salary.
00:11:19Corner office.
00:11:20Yeah.
00:11:21Before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
00:11:22Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
00:11:23Rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas.
00:11:24It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
00:11:39I mean the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
00:11:44The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
00:11:49If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:56Shit, shit, shit.
00:11:58What are you talking about?
00:11:59Victoria designed all of this.
00:12:07Actually, those were my designs.
00:12:13What did you just say?
00:12:14The spring collection.
00:12:16The Cartier pieces.
00:12:18I designed them.
00:12:20Under your supervision, of course.
00:12:22But they came from me.
00:12:23Oops.
00:12:24Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
00:12:27I thought you were better than this, ma'am.
00:12:30Then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:37So what?
00:12:38Skitches get passed around all the time.
00:12:39It doesn't prove squat.
00:12:40Maybe she was your little, what do they call it?
00:12:41dress designer?
00:12:42And the logo?
00:12:43The EW, woven in.
00:12:44Victoria's signature mark.
00:12:45It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:12:46Tell me, explain it.
00:12:47Make me shut up.
00:12:48It's funny.
00:12:49All those pieces.
00:12:50All those pieces.
00:12:51From the Milan collection.
00:12:52They all have EW and GW sewn it, too.
00:12:53Because they all have EW and GW sewn it, too.
00:12:54It's funny.
00:12:55All those pieces.
00:12:56The EW, woven in.
00:12:57Victoria's signature mark.
00:12:59It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:13:03Tell me.
00:13:04Explain it.
00:13:05Make me shut up.
00:13:06It's funny.
00:13:11All those pieces.
00:13:12From the Milan collection that everyone's using.
00:13:15They all have EW and GW sewn it, too.
00:13:19Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
00:13:22Her newborn is Grace Winter.
00:13:25It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs,
00:13:30Nina.
00:13:31Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
00:13:35Well, Nina, tell them.
00:13:37Tell them you designed this.
00:13:39Tell them you saved Milan.
00:13:41The logo, it's...
00:13:44It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:48You lying little bitch!
00:13:51That promotion is by 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.
00:14:07M-M.
00:14:08For McMichael.
00:14:09My last name.
00:14:13See?
00:14:14One M flipped.
00:14:15One upright.
00:14:16It's not for Grace or Emily.
00:14:21It's mine.
00:14:22That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:25Oh my god, she's right.
00:14:27It does look more like two M's.
00:14:29Human, if you're a little bitch, you really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:36You learned wild, Mia.
00:14:40Maybe too long.
00:14:42You'll regret this.
00:14:45Not Vincent.
00:14:47You don't have to seek to that level.
00:14:50Okay.
00:14:51And I'll be driving home, okay?
00:14:53Bye for hours outside.
00:14:55When I got this, you shouldn't be carrying it anymore.
00:14:58Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:15:06Just take care of your manner of Pauline, will you?
00:15:12That's right!
00:15:13Get the hell out of my company!
00:15:15Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
00:15:24Pauline, Victoria.
00:15:25A VIP invitation passed fashion week.
00:15:31I've even found it.
00:15:34Lightning.
00:15:43Every pregnant woman fired.
00:15:46All of us.
00:15:47Just like that.
00:15:49No severance.
00:15:50No warning.
00:15:51Nothing but a box and a security escort.
00:15:56Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
00:16:03For a termination, people would practically pay for your sign and bonus made right and star.
00:16:09Now, about Paris fashion week.
00:16:12Your designs are eerily awaited.
00:16:16You should have kept your legs closed.
00:16:18Put your legs closed.
00:16:28Oh my god, mom.
00:16:30This is insane.
00:16:31I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:33Victoria Wintour.
00:16:35The nuclear dick.
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 Léveau.
00:16:44Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:49Wait.
00:16:50Maison Léveau?
00:16:52Well, 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?
00:17:04Leaving so soon.
00:17:06You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:17:09Mommy dearest, we'll do a little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore.
00:17:17Mom, that's 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 Wintour.
00:17:30Still pretending she matters.
00:17:32My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:17:39If Maison Léveau was putting people like you in charge of the business,
00:17:44then maybe she deserves to crash and burn.
00:17:47That'll look at that.
00:17:48It seems entitlement runs into the family.
00:17:50Say whatever you want about me,
00:17:52but 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?
00:17:59Hey, 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.
00:18:10That's enough.
00:18:16That's enough.
00:18:18You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
00:18:20You never belonged in this world.
00:18:22Look at her.
00:18:24A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
00:18:27That dress, it's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:34Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
00:18:37It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
00:18:41What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:18:46Remove that dress.
00:18:47Remove that dress.
00:18:49We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
00:18:53Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
00:18:56And let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
00:19:00Take your hands off for now.
00:19:01Vincent.
00:19:11You're dismissed.
00:19:12You all right?
00:19:25You all right?
00:19:27I'm full.
00:19:28Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
00:19:31The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
00:19:33What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
00:19:38That knockoff?
00:19:40That you so eager to trash her for?
00:19:43It's Chevenne.
00:19:45But Vitor.
00:19:47Winter Collection.
00:19:49Not even released yet.
00:19:51Price tag?
00:19:53$300,000.
00:19:54Wow!
00:19:56You gave her that.
00:19:57That's right.
00:19:58You did.
00:20:01I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted.
00:20:05Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
00:20:08Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy.
00:20:12Mr. Billionaire's not a white knife, he's her walking trust fund.
00:20:18Victoria'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?
00:20:31For those of you who don't know me,
00:20:34I'm Vincent Chevalier.
00:20:36CEO of Gevenne.
00:20:40Yes.
00:20:42I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
00:20:46I have followed your career from a distance for years.
00:20:48Your brilliance.
00:20:51Your principles.
00:20:53Your passion.
00:20:55Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
00:20:59Mom, did you know about this?
00:21:01I'm not gonna pursue anything until she's ready.
00:21:05But in the meantime, what I will do
00:21:07is 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.
00:21:20She's nothing but a has-been.
00:21:23The show is about to start.
00:21:26Your seats are waiting.
00:21:32Holy 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.
00:21:41This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:43Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:44Can I seriously have been in love with my mom since high school?
00:21:59Some talents you recognize immediately.
00:22:08Some people do.
00:22:14Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
00:22:17I have an important announcement.
00:22:19This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
00:22:23She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
00:22:26It's true.
00:22:29She took my work and passed it off as her own.
00:22:33I slaved away on those designs day and night.
00:22:39And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
00:22:46That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
00:22:49Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
00:22:53That's enough, Holly.
00:22:54Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
00:23:00Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
00:23:04Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
00:23:09That's her real design strategy.
00:23:12Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
00:23:14And those kids she's so proud of, who knows who their real fathers are?
00:23:18How dare you!
00:23:24Just wait, please. Just wait, Miles.
00:23:27It's a disaster in there.
00:23:29There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
00:23:32Not now.
00:23:33The 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.
00:23:47Is this some kind of sick joke, Maison Laveau?
00:23:50Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
00:23:52This is completely unprofessional.
00:23:55I have 10 million invested in this collection.
00:23:59This is breach of contract.
00:24:00It's actually fixable.
00:24:05Oh, you can't seriously be thinking about helping you back-stabbing vultures.
00:24:11Breaking news for Paris Fashion Week.
00:24:15Maison Laveau appears to be inputting underneath new leadership.
00:24:19Sources say the entire collection may be canceled minutes before showtime.
00:24:23The question on everyone's mind, is this the end for one's prestigious fashion books?
00:24:27This show doesn't happen.
00:24:30You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
00:24:33We're talking billions, homie.
00:24:35Billions.
00:24:37Billions.
00:24:39Billions.
00:24:58Billions.
00:25:04What is this!
00:25:06Now!
00:25:07How?
00:25:09The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials!
00:25:12I can't MAGICALLY make new dresses in an hour!
00:25:15Y'VE YOU HAVE exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
00:25:19If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket
00:25:24That's billions of dollars...
00:25:26Then you better figure something out.
00:25:28Because if you don't, I'm running forward.
00:25:31I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
00:25:44Miss Winter, how do you respond of accusations over design theft?
00:25:49Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
00:25:53Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
00:25:56And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
00:26:01We're gathering evidence as we speak.
00:26:14Excuse me.
00:26:16Excuse me.
00:26:18It's okay, Pop. Let me run.
00:26:23What do you want, Mia?
00:26:32Vic, I really need your help.
00:26:35Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
00:26:38Look, I know you're furious. I would be too. But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
00:26:47What about them?
00:26:48Their jobs are on the line with this show. If we tank, they're done. Holly will fire them without a second thought.
00:26:55Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just help us out with you.
00:27:02Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
00:27:04Yes, absolutely. And they're counting on this being a hit.
00:27:08Please, Vic, not for me. For them. For school.
00:27:14I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make or break show.
00:27:19What exactly happened to them, Mia?
00:27:21They, they couldn't make it. Holly cut the travel legend.
00:27:30Is that right?
00:27:32Victoria, I know I don't deserve your help.
00:27:39Fine.
00:27:40I'll help. But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline. Not for you.
00:27:58Oh my God. It's Victoria Winter. A nuclear beck.
00:28:02I need scissors, thread and fresh lining fabric. Now.
00:28:10I need royal fuchsia for this stitching. Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
00:28:17Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
00:28:23Would this work?
00:28:30Vincent, how did you...
00:28:34I figured you might need some supplies, so I had my assistant bring over Jovan's emergency kit.
00:28:41This is perfect, but Jovan and Maison Laveau are competitors. Why would you help them?
00:28:50I'm not helping them. I'm helping you.
00:28:55I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
00:28:59I have a design I've been saving. Something special I've never shown anyone. It's yours now.
00:29:06I don't want your design, Victoria.
00:29:10Then what do you want?
00:29:13You.
00:29:15What?
00:29:16You're a talent. You're a vision. Come and work as Jovan.
00:29:26I'm in. I'll work for you.
00:29:30Just like that?
00:29:32Just like that. Now, let me finish my final job for Maison Laveau.
00:29:36I hate it when I'm gone.
00:29:44I wish I was cool.
00:29:46Like the new girl at school.
00:29:49I regret it.
00:29:50So I'mma get, I'mma get, I'mma get, I'mma get ready.
00:29:54I won't keep fighting.
00:29:56Don't ever change.
00:29:58I'm gonna be proud of my name.
00:30:04She's doing it in minutes.
00:30:06What would have taken us hours?
00:30:08Whoa.
00:30:10No wonder they call her the nuclear pick.
00:30:12It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
00:30:16The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
00:30:19Five minutes to show time. We made it.
00:30:40Well, do we pull the plug or not?
00:30:43We're good. Everything's back on track.
00:30:45See?
00:30:46I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
00:30:49You've got twice your talent.
00:30:52Yeah.
00:30:53Right.
00:30:55This is exactly why I promoted you.
00:30:57Your fix mess is not Nathan.
00:31:06To Victoria.
00:31:08The real hero of the night.
00:31:16Well, you're insane.
00:31:17I can't believe you actually picked that disaster in under an hour.
00:31:27Couldn't have done it without you.
00:31:30You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
00:31:35Well, well, still hanging around.
00:31:36I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party. Fraud.
00:31:49Pauline, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
00:31:52What are you talking about?
00:31:53What are you talking about?
00:31:55Just ask the models.
00:31:56Any of them.
00:31:59Oh, and Mia.
00:32:01Don't forget about our agreement.
00:32:03About Miranda and Pauline.
00:32:05I think I will.
00:32:06Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
00:32:20Speaking of new beginnings.
00:32:23Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
00:32:27I want to help.
00:32:29With her education.
00:32:31What?
00:32:32Vincent, that's too much.
00:32:33We barely know each other.
00:32:34Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
00:32:41I remember watching you win that regional competition.
00:32:46In that silver dress.
00:32:48The one you made from scratch.
00:32:50I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
00:32:57You remember that?
00:32:59I remember everything.
00:33:00I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
00:33:11Why didn't you ever reach out?
00:33:13We were married.
00:33:14And then you were building your career.
00:33:15And then you were building your career.
00:33:17And then you were building your career.
00:33:20And the timing was never right.
00:33:24Until now.
00:33:25Until now
00:33:35I've been waiting 20 years to be with me
00:33:39I should probably get this
00:34:04Mia
00:34:06God I'm so right about firing Victoria
00:34:11That Milan disaster you turned around
00:34:13Absolute magic
00:34:14And now I have an opportunity
00:34:16That could put you on the map for good
00:34:18Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo
00:34:21For the Oscars red carpet
00:34:23Sean Gosling
00:34:27The Sean Gosling
00:34:28The very one
00:34:29Three time Oscar winner
00:34:31People's Sexiest Man Alive
00:34:33And if we play our cards right
00:34:35The next place remains on the Bozeman's wear
00:34:37They're taking pitches now
00:34:39If he picks yours
00:34:42This changes everything
00:34:43For you
00:34:44For the brand
00:34:45Where it is
00:34:47Is your Ben's in the running too
00:34:48Lanthus
00:34:50Vincent and poor Victoria
00:34:52Are done
00:34:52Seal the deal
00:34:57I'll bump your pay by 20%
00:34:59I've got this Holly
00:35:01You won't regret it
00:35:03God what am I gonna do
00:35:11I can't design men's wear
00:35:13I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help
00:35:17Miranda and Felina are gone too
00:35:19I'm completely on my own
00:35:21If Holly bought that I saved Milan
00:35:26And fixed Paris when it was all Victoria
00:35:29Maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over
00:35:33Thanks for meeting me
00:35:56I know things are complicated between us
00:35:58You mentioned Miranda and Pauline
00:36:00Cut to the chase
00:36:02We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tux
00:36:07Miranda and Pauline are also on the team
00:36:09Miranda's excellent at men's wear
00:36:11She can handle this without me
00:36:12Please wait
00:36:13There's more to it
00:36:13After Paris
00:36:15Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster
00:36:18Miranda and Pauline
00:36:19Are on the chopping block
00:36:21I've been fighting for them
00:36:23Are you serious?
00:36:24Pauline's due any day now
00:36:26Trust me
00:36:27I know
00:36:28This project is our only shot
00:36:30If we land it
00:36:30I can convince Holly to keep them both
00:36:33Have you worked with Sean before?
00:36:35No
00:36:36But I've heard you have
00:36:37Ages ago
00:36:39I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala
00:36:42Actually I was sketching a new tuxedo concept frame
00:36:45Right before I left Maison Hall
00:36:47Really?
00:36:47What consonant?
00:36:48What consonant?
00:36:53Well
00:36:53Perfect
00:37:08He's handing everything over without even realizing
00:37:11I'll use our design to save my ass and learn this project
00:37:15Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
00:37:18I do
00:37:20Actually I took him with me when I left Maison Laveau
00:37:24Wait
00:37:27Miranda went on maternity leave last week
00:37:30How exactly is she part of this project?
00:37:33Well
00:37:34Since she's the best menswear designer we have
00:37:37Holly's letting her work from home
00:37:38Is the company covering your health insurance?
00:37:42Of course
00:37:43Vic
00:37:44Colleen and Miranda's jobs are on the line here
00:37:47You need to know God
00:37:51Take all the time you need
00:37:54Mia
00:37:55Don't make me regret trusting me
00:37:58Again
00:38:08Pumpkin I need a quick favor
00:38:19Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
00:38:23The Sean Gosselin one with the black item lapels?
00:38:27That's the one
00:38:28Can you check my home office?
00:38:30It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025
00:38:33Got it
00:38:35Grace is napping
00:38:36The perfect timing
00:38:37Thanks sweetie
00:38:38I just need to double check something about them
00:38:44Shoulder
00:38:45Instruction
00:38:47Mom are you okay?
00:38:53Miranda?
00:38:54Vic?
00:38:56Mom!
00:38:57Mom!
00:38:58Mom!
00:38:59What's going on?
00:39:00Emily!
00:39:01I'll call you right back
00:39:03Miranda!
00:39:04What happened?
00:39:05Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
00:39:06Because the girls don't pay themselves
00:39:07You made my house with an old child with no paycheck
00:39:09And now there's a newborn at home
00:39:11Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project
00:39:15What?
00:39:16What?
00:39:17Is that a story she's spinning now?
00:39:18After you left she fired every pregnant woman in the company
00:39:22No surveillance, no copper and nothing
00:39:23Just gone
00:39:24That's completely illegal
00:39:26Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some of the money
00:39:28What?
00:39:29What?
00:39:30What?
00:39:31What?
00:39:32What?
00:39:33What?
00:39:34What?
00:39:35What?
00:39:36What?
00:39:37What?
00:39:38What?
00:39:39What?
00:39:40What?
00:39:41What?
00:39:42What?
00:39:43What?
00:39:44What?
00:39:45We're gone
00:39:46That's completely illegal
00:39:47Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance calls
00:39:48Only at once
00:39:50What are the odds, right?
00:39:51When Polly working night shifts at 24 hours down here
00:39:55Her sister medical bills keep piling up
00:40:04And Mia knew about all this
00:40:06Mia, front row seat when Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink.
00:40:13Too busy admiring her shiny new creative director title.
00:40:18She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me, telling me her job depended on me helping her.
00:40:25What? That bitch!
00:40:29This ends now.
00:40:36Damn it!
00:40:43Miss Michael, let's just arrive from Milan. We need approval by name.
00:40:48Didn't you see I'm working on something important?
00:41:00What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
00:41:03Victoria would never turn this over.
00:41:07I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect? Then where is she now? Gone.
00:41:14Now I'm in charge, and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
00:41:18Well, at least you got a key designer.
00:41:22What the hell is going on here?
00:41:28Just a creative disagreement. Everything's under control.
00:41:32You're gauzy bitch. Tell me you have something presentable.
00:41:39Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
00:41:41Show me.
00:41:42It's not quite ready.
00:41:44Now.
00:41:51This is garbage.
00:41:54Absolute garbage!
00:41:55I just need a little more time.
00:41:57We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
00:42:00If Shufin gets this deal instead of us.
00:42:06What's that?
00:42:12It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
00:42:16I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:20Get me when you design me till morning.
00:42:23Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:25I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:50I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:52Right on cue.
00:42:59Meet that sketch ASAP.
00:43:04Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:43:08The absolute nerve of this woman.
00:43:13She'll get her a sketch.
00:43:15And that's when we spin the trap.
00:43:22You're early.
00:43:31Vic.
00:43:32I really need that sketch.
00:43:42I said I'd help.
00:43:43Not hand over my design.
00:43:45Holly's all over me about this.
00:43:47If I don't have something tonight.
00:43:49Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:43:54Still lying Mia.
00:43:55You never learn.
00:43:56Guess it's payback time.
00:43:58So.
00:43:59Do you want my help or not?
00:44:01I can walk you through it.
00:44:02Your design could be just as good.
00:44:04She's such a snake.
00:44:06Vic.
00:44:07My stomach is killing me.
00:44:09Can you run to the phone and see and get something please?
00:44:13Fine.
00:44:14Don't touch anything.
00:44:16Don't touch anything.
00:44:17Anything.
00:44:44Sorry then.
00:44:45Survival of the fittest.
00:44:59You just let her take your work?
00:45:01She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
00:45:07You know boss.
00:45:08We could pitch ourselves.
00:45:10Go after the same clients.
00:45:12Show them what real design looks like.
00:45:15We're not out yet.
00:45:29I heard there's a revolution rope.
00:45:35I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
00:45:38You're welcome mom.
00:45:39I want you.
00:45:40And your team.
00:45:41As your then.
00:45:42Full.
00:45:43Creative control.
00:45:44I'm Miranda.
00:45:45Your husband's debt.
00:45:46Handled.
00:45:47And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
00:45:51Mr. Chevalier.
00:45:52I'm Pauline.
00:45:53I'm Pauline.
00:45:54Your sister is in good hands.
00:45:58The best heart surgeon in the country is already prepping for her next surgery.
00:46:04Mr. Chevalier.
00:46:05Mr. Chevalier.
00:46:07Don't thank me.
00:46:08Thank Victoria.
00:46:09I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:46:11Vincent.
00:46:12I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:46:14Vincent, I don't even know what to say.
00:46:15It's about time.
00:46:16You all get what you deserve.
00:46:25It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:46:26Vincent, I don't even know what to say.
00:46:31It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:46:56I don't even know what to say.
00:47:26We're here.
00:47:42And you're still here.
00:47:44Final tweaks.
00:47:45The pitch goes out tomorrow.
00:47:51You've got Grace to sleep.
00:47:56Yeah.
00:47:56And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
00:48:03Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
00:48:11Remember, smile.
00:48:13We're about to make the sleep.
00:48:18Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:48:20We don't follow trends.
00:48:22We create them.
00:48:29Satin black lapels.
00:48:30Nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcala moment.
00:48:34A blend of tradition and boldness.
00:48:36I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
00:48:47What is that bitch doing here?
00:48:49Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
00:48:56My company is thriving because of your generosity.
00:49:02I didn't expect to see you here.
00:49:05I thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
00:49:09I multitask.
00:49:10I multitask.
00:49:12Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:49:17You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in waters.
00:49:23The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:49:26And the only thing growing it in his own level is the legal risk.
00:49:30Pregnant woman talk, you know.
00:49:32Three ex and threes and a five of CEOs.
00:49:35What's next?
00:49:36The sale?
00:49:37Laugh all you want, Holly.
00:49:40We're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
00:49:42And what real loyalty looks like.
00:49:45Sean, glad you could make it.
00:50:01We have something very special to show you.
00:50:03Pick.
00:50:06I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
00:50:13You never know.
00:50:14Congratulations.
00:50:15Thank you, Sean.
00:50:16It's good to see you.
00:50:18Let's begin the pitches.
00:50:22You ready for news?
00:50:23You're out of your league.
00:50:25You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
00:50:35First up, me and McMichael, Maison LeVaux.
00:50:44Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:45Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:46Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:50Beautiful work.
00:50:51Both themes.
00:50:52We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:50:53We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:50:56Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:58Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:59Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:51:01Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:51:07Beautiful work.
00:51:08Both themes.
00:51:09We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:51:13After careful consideration, we're rewarding the project to...
00:51:18After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2...
00:51:29Maison Le Vaux.
00:51:32Oh my god!
00:51:34Of course.
00:51:36This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
00:51:48What the hell did you people put me in? Are you trying to kill me?
00:51:53Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk. Who designed this tuxedo?
00:51:57Did you even read the brief?
00:52:02I mean, you must have read the brief. It's not complicated.
00:52:06It says, no synthetic blend.
00:52:09I mean, it must be some kind of mistake. Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
00:52:14A mistake? I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:52:19Victoria! Please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your last design.
00:52:31I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
00:52:35I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
00:52:38And that's why Victoria's the best. She actually pays attention.
00:52:43After reviewing all of the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
00:52:46The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:52:54Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip-up.
00:52:56Mia's design was the front runner all along.
00:52:59That's why they picked her first.
00:53:01Maybe everyone should see this.
00:53:02Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:53:16That's a new low. Even for you.
00:53:18Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
00:53:30And so you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design debt.
00:53:37Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:53:40We're suspending all collaborations.
00:53:43Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else. You're blacklisted.
00:53:57Victoria, please.
00:53:58Victoria, please.
00:53:59Victoria, please.
00:54:00I'll do anything. Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
00:54:04You made your choices, Holly. Now you live with them.
00:54:25She finally went too far.
00:54:36Sean Gosling's look tonight is a dame junior 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.
00:55:14Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:55:22Happy birthday to you!
00:55:28Guys, look!
00:55:32Maison Léveau on the brink?
00:55:34Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:55:38Ouch! I guess karma has a sense of humor.
00:55:42It's strange, isn't it?
00:55:44I 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. I thought I'd feel vindicated.
00:56:02Honestly, it's a weird mix.
00:56:04Relief, 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!
00:56:25Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers.
00:56:31Not just for us, not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
00:56:36Careful, Vincent. I almost forgot the best part.
00:56:39Victoria, Victoria wins her.
00:56:52Will you marry me?
00:56:57Yes!
00:56:58Yes!
00:57:02A thousand times, yes!
00:57:04Woo!
00:57:05Yay!
00:57:05Woo!
00:57:06Woo!
00:57:07I'm gonna go!
00:57:09Take my heart with over your hands
00:57:13I've been spending all my time
00:57:17Cause you've been struggling to feel bad
00:57:19Give me love and missing all
00:57:25Best ever!
00:57:27You 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, clients failed
00:57:55The board freaked, numbers tanked
00:57:59I couldn't stop it
00:58:01You stood maize on the boat into this storm, Holly
00:58:08I know, I know
00:58:11My father, the stress gave him a heart attack
00:58:16He won't even speak to me anymore
00:58:19I destroyed everything
00:58:22My thought slashing costs would save us
00:58:25But instead I gutted the company
00:58:28I don't need to pretend like this
00:58:32Maison Laveau isn't dead
00:58:34I bought it, last week
00:58:37The brand, the archives, even the debt
00:58:42It's part of Jovan now
00:58:44You're blind, why would you do that?
00:58:47To make sure that no more women
00:58:49Have to suffer because of policies like yours
00:58:55You win, Victoria
00:58:57To help you do better than I did
00:59:00I'll do it differently
00:59:02Goodbye, Holly
00:59:05Miss Winter, I just, I want to thank you
00:59:26Because of your campaign
00:59:28My company gave me maternity leave
00:59:31I can keep working and have my baby
00:59:36You changed everything
00:59:39Congratulations
00:59:41Wishing you and your little one every happiness
00:59:54Ready?
00:59:55Always
00:59:58Always
00:59:59Always
01:00:10And now, Jovan's new collection
01:00:13Designed by Victoria Winsmore and your team
01:00:15I want to thank you
01:00:16Thank you
