00:00Shit! No no no no no no no!
00:12The system crashed mid-upload!
00:14Half the collection was the wrong season!
00:16We're on everything!
00:2248 hours!
00:24If production starts with these botched designs,
00:26we're all dead!
00:28Not just fire, we're dead!
00:30Company collapses, our careers are over!
00:32Come out here and talk to us!
00:34We have 8 million tied up in this collection!
00:36I have a fashion editor from Moe,
00:38right now!
00:40One word for me, you're into some poison!
00:56Enough!
00:58Vic!
01:00Mia, Japanese Indigo.
01:04Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:08Pauline, handle those vultures.
01:12Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:18It's 28 minutes!
01:20It's 28 minutes?
01:22The whole system takes 15 to reboot!
01:2427 now!
01:26Tick tock!
01:28I'm done!
01:34Crisis averted!
01:36I swear to god, you're not human!
01:3827 minutes!
01:40Holy shit!
01:42Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:46This will shatter every record!
01:48I swear to god, you're not human!
01:5027 minutes!
01:52Holy shit!
01:54Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:56This will shatter every record!
01:58It's not less than a figure!
02:00It's time to get away!
02:04What is he saying?
02:06Just practice and hecks, nothing to me.
02:08It's a snake, it's nothing to...
02:13Oh my god, your water broke.
02:21Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:26Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:31Dad called, he wanted to know if he should come, but...
02:35I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since he decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
02:43That's my girl.
02:53Well, the company's yours now, Holly, but there's a condition.
02:59We need to slash costs immediately.
03:03Layoffs?
03:06That's it without leave.
03:09Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:13Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Malayan disaster, they get immunity.
03:19In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
03:23No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:34Boss, the Milan collection crisis? Averted. Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:39You, you saved the entire collection? Impressive.
03:43Oh, actually, how about I make you the new creative director? Starting today.
03:48Oh my God, is this really happening?
03:49Oh my God, is this really happening? She's offering me Victoria's job? I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
03:58Hanging over my head?
04:03But, Victoria...
04:05Don't worry about her. I'm not useless if I go in a snow fire.
04:08You know that collection I just rescued, Em? I hid something in the design. Your initials and now little graces.
04:22Hold them right into the fabric.
04:29And that's gonna give him a long runway?
04:32Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:35Enough for your full tuition of private school.
04:38Mom, you ain't have to.
04:40We're going to that private school. No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:47This job will keep us afloat.
04:49I love you, Mom.
04:52Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
05:05After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:22Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
05:35What the hell?
05:37Listen up, everyone.
05:39Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:41Effective immediately.
05:42You can't just do that. She's in the hospital having her baby. There are laws against this.
05:50Vic worked while in labor. She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
05:54Maternity leave, medical insurance. These preggles are bleeding us dry.
06:01Everything okay here?
06:05Great timing.
06:07Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:10Clear out your desk now.
06:12You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:23I saved this company three times when your father couldn't make payroll.
06:27Three times.
06:29Well, that's ancient history.
06:33The board wants fresh blood.
06:36And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
06:43What?
06:45I'm the one who...
06:47Mia, you...
06:49Feel that curve?
06:52That's her signature.
06:54That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
06:55How could you?
06:56I taught you everything you know.
07:11I wish things were different, Vic.
07:15I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:19What happens to my team?
07:22Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:28Things got so bad she had to get hair. Implants.
07:31Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:37These jobs are their lifelines. Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:42You can't just throw them away.
07:43Well, actually, legally speaking, we can. No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection, but hey, that's corporate America for you.
07:57Or, we can shift the math.
08:00You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:05Think of it as taking one for the team.
08:09Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
08:14And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:18They can't lose their jobs.
08:23Come on, Vic. You say you care about them.
08:26Prove it.
08:39Five grand...
08:57Five grand...
09:01That's my severance package after 15 years, that's what i'm worth to them!?
09:07Careful. I got you.
09:29Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:33Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:48So, it's true.
09:52Grey Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Mison LeBeau's Milan collection.
09:58How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:07Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:12What are you getting at exactly?
10:15I'm talking about you and me.
10:20Partners. You're genius. My money.
10:25No corporate BS. No one holding you back.
10:33I've got a baby to think about now.
10:36And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:42Just saying.
10:47Vincent Chevalier, wow!
10:49You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
10:54Got your spine here?
10:59Mind me, I'm just giving Victoria your soft landing.
11:04Triple her salary, corner office.
11:07You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
11:10Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:13Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:17Wow, that's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:23I mean, the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:28The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:31If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:38Shit, shit, shit.
11:40What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:49Actually, those were my designs.
11:55What did you just say?
11:56The spring collection.
11:58The Cartier pieces.
11:59I designed them.
12:02Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
12:05Oops.
12:06Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
12:09I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:13Then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:23So what?
12:24Sketches get past her all the time, it doesn't prove squat.
12:26Maybe she was your little, what do they call it?
12:31Best designer?
12:33And the logo?
12:36The EW, woven in.
12:39Victoria's signature mark.
12:41It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:44Well, Mia, explain it and make her shut up.
12:46It's funny.
12:47All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing in their life.
12:56They all have EW and GW's similar, too.
12:59Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
13:03Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:04It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
13:11Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
13:15Well, Mia, tell them.
13:17Tell them you designed this.
13:19Tell them you saved Milan.
13:20The logo, it's, it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:28You lying little bitch!
13:30That promotion was for saving the company.
13:34Look at the logo again.
13:39It's not EW or GW.
13:43It's actually two Ms.
13:46MM for McMichael, my last name.
13:52See?
13:54One M flipped, one upright.
13:56It's not for Grace or Emily.
13:59It's mine.
14:00That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:04Oh my god, she's right.
14:05It does look more like two Ms.
14:09You manipulative bitch.
14:11You really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:15You learned well, Mia.
14:18Maybe too well.
14:20You'll regret this.
14:23What?
14:25We don't have to sink to that level.
14:27Okay.
14:28Then let me drive you home, Mary.
14:31My Ferrari's outside.
14:33I got this.
14:34You shouldn't be carrying it anymore.
14:40Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:44Just take care of your honor and poly, will you?
14:49That's right!
14:50Get the hell out of my company!
14:52Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:59Oh, I'm Victoria.
15:02A VIP invitation, Paris Fashion Week.
15:07Front row.
15:08I think you'll find it.
15:10Enlightening.
15:11Every pregnant woman fired.
15:22All of us.
15:24Just like that.
15:26No severance.
15:27No warning.
15:28Nothing.
15:29$100 bucks and a security S group.
15:36Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:40Their termination people weren't practically paid for your sign and bonus my riding star.
15:45Now, about Paris Fashion Week.
15:48Your designs are eagerly awaited.
15:49You should have kept your legs closed.
15:52Oh my God, Mom.
15:53This is insane.
15:54I can't believe we're actually here.
15:55Victoria Wintour.
15:57The Nuclear Vic.
15:59Your mom's basically a legend.
16:00You know that, right?
16:01We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Levaux.
16:02Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:04Wait, Maison Levaux?
16:07Well, well, the queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
16:09Brave of you to show up here.
16:10What's next?
16:11Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:12Oh, no.
16:13Oh no.
16:14Oh no.
16:15Oh, no.
16:16Oh no.
16:17Oh no.
16:18Oh no.
16:19Oh no.
16:20Oh no.
16:21Oh no.
16:22Oh no.
16:23Oh no.
16:24Oh no.
16:25Oh no.
16:26Oh no.
16:27Oh no.
16:28Oh no.
16:29Oh no.
16:30Oh no.
16:31Oh no.
16:32Oh no.
16:33Oh no.
16:34Oh no.
16:35Oh no.
16:36Oh no.
16:37Oh no.
16:38Oh no.
16:39Oh no.
16:40Oh no.
16:41Oh no.
16:42Oh no.
16:43Oh no.
16:44Oh no.
16:45Oh no.
16:46Oh no.
16:47Oh no.
16:48Oh no.
16:49Oh no.
16:50Oh no.
16:51Oh no.
16:52Oh no.
16:53Oh no.
16:54Oh no.
16:55Oh no.
16:56Oh no.
16:57Oh no.
16:58Oh no.
16:59Oh no.
17:00Oh no.
17:01Oh no.
17:02Oh no.
17:03Oh no.
17:04Oh no.
17:05matters. My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room. If Ms. Oliveau
17:14was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash
17:19and burn. Well, look at that. It seems entitlement runs in the family. Say whatever you want
17:24about me, but leave my daughter out of it. That's got a sting, huh? Exposed as unemployed
17:30in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero. But hey, good news. There's
17:36a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children. If paying the bills
17:40is getting tough, maybe send her over there. That's enough. That's enough. You've always
17:51been a fraud, Victoria. You never belonged in this world. Look at her. A jobless single
17:57mom still pretending she can afford couture. That dress, it's a cheap knockoff. Wearing
18:06fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic. It's insulting to everyone here who actually
18:11deserves to be here. What the hell do you think you're doing? Remove that dress. We don't tolerate
18:22counterfeits in this industry. Hey, stop it. Let go of my mom. Let's see what garbage
18:30is really hiding under that dress. Take your hands off her now.
18:35Vincent. You're dismissed.
18:43You all right? You all right?
18:57Looking for it. Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier. The reclusive billionaire who never
19:03shows up anywhere. What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:09That knockoff that you're so here to trash her for? It's Chauvinne. Mote Couture. Winter
19:17Collection. Not even released yet. Price tag? $300,000.
19:23Wow! You gave her that. That's right. I did. I would give her the entire damn collection if
19:33she wanted it. Oh my god, everyone mystery solved. Victoria's bagged herself a sugar daddy.
19:41Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight. He's her walking trust fund. Victoria's sleeping her
19:48weight at the top. It's just so predictably desperate.
19:56You really don't understand real talent, do you? For those of you who don't know me, I'm
20:04Vincent Chevalier, CEO of Jeuvenne. And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since
20:12high school. I have followed your career from a distance for years. Your brilliance, your
20:19principles, your passion. Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:27Mom, did you know about this? I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready. But in
20:35the meantime, what I will do is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that
20:40it deserves. She won't let you down, boss. You're making a complete ass of yourself,
20:48Chevalier. She's nothing but a has-been. The show is about to start. Your seats are waiting.
21:00Holy shit. The industry golden boy and the creative powerhouse together? Talk about a power couple.
21:06Make it run the entire industry. This isn't over, bitch. Wait till you see what I've prepared
21:13for you.
21:23So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
21:29Some talents you recognize immediately. Some people, too.
21:41Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:46This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief. She's been stealing designs from my creative
21:51director for years. It's true. She took my work and passed it off as her own. I've slaved
21:59away on those designs day and night. And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:07That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria? Your entire career is based on lies and
22:17manipulation.
22:19That's enough, Holly.
22:20Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are. Your personal
22:25life is just as fake as the so-called talent. Did you know she slept with half the executives
22:32in the industry? That's her real design strategy.
22:37Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
22:39And those kids she's so proud of? Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:43How dare you!
22:49Miss Jenkins, Miss Michaels, it's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the
22:54collection. It's the fabric.
22:56Not now.
23:02The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights. The dresses are literally falling
23:08apart.
23:09We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:11Is this some kind of sick joke, Maison LeVoe? Are you cancelling the show because of your
23:15incompetence?
23:16This is completely unprofessional.
23:19I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:22This is breach of contract.
23:26It's actually fixable.
23:29Oh, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with backstabbing vultures.
23:36Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:38Maison LeVoe appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:41Sources say the entire collection may be cancelled minutes before showtime.
23:46The question on everyone's mind, is this the end for the once prestigious fashion house?
23:51This show doesn't happen.
23:52You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
23:53We're talking billions, Holly.
23:54Billions.
23:55Billions.
23:56Billions.
23:57Billions.
23:58Billions.
23:59Billions.
24:00We're talking billions, Holly.
24:01Billions.
24:02Billions.
24:03Billions.
24:04Billions.
24:05Billions.
24:06Billions.
24:07Billions.
24:08Billions.
24:09Just take the picture of the shops, you're easier to travel over to
24:28How? The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials.
24:33I can't magically make new dresses in an hour.
24:37You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:40If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:44That's billions of dollars.
24:47Then you better figure something out.
24:49Because if you don't, not only are you fired,
24:52I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
24:58Miss Winter, how do you respond to accusations over design theft?
25:10Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:14Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:17And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:21We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:28Excuse me.
25:37Excuse me.
25:39It's okay, Papa. I'll be right back.
25:47What do you want, Mia?
25:52Vic, I really need your help.
25:55Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
26:00Look, I know you're furious. I would be too.
26:04But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
26:07What about them?
26:08Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:10If we tank, they're done. Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:16Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just help us out here.
26:21Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:24Yes, absolutely. And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:28Please, Vic. Not for me. For them. It's weird.
26:33I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make or break show.
26:38What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:40They, they couldn't make it. Holly cut the travel budget.
26:49Is that right?
26:51Victoria, I know I don't deserve your help. They do.
26:58Fine. I'll help you.
27:01But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline. Not for you.
27:16Oh my God. It's Victoria Winter. The nuclear beck.
27:20I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric. Now.
27:30I need royal fuchsia for the stitching.
27:32Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:35Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:41Can this work?
27:42The
27:47Vincent, how did you...
27:50I figured you might need some supplies so, I had my assistant bring over Jovaine's Emergency Kit.
27:59This is perfect, but Jovaine and Maison Lavo are competitors. Why would you help them?
28:05I'm not helping them
28:08I'm helping you
28:11I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return
28:15I have a design I've been saving
28:18Something special I've never shown anyone
28:20It's yours now
28:22I don't want your design, Victoria
28:25Then what do you want?
28:29You
28:30What?
28:35You're a talent
28:37You're a vision
28:39Come and work as you're in
28:42I'm in
28:44I'll work for you
28:46Just like that?
28:47Just like that
28:48Now, let me finish my final job for Maison Lebel
28:52I hate it when I'm gone
28:59I wish I was cool
29:02Like the new girl at school
29:04I regret it
29:06So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get
29:08She's doing it in minutes
29:21What would have taken us hours?
29:24Whoa
29:24No wonder they call her the nuclear vic
29:27It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing
29:31The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur
29:34Five minutes till showtime
29:41We made it
29:43Well, do we pull the plug or not?
29:57We're good
29:58Everything's back on track
29:59See?
30:01I knew firing Victoria was the right call
30:04You've got twice your talent
30:05Yeah, right
30:08This is exactly why I promoted you
30:11You fix this, let's not make them
30:14To Victoria
30:22The real hero of the night
30:24Mom, you're insane
30:36I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour
30:40I couldn't have done it without you
30:42You know, if you start dating before you work together
30:47It doesn't count as an office romance
30:49Well, well, still hanging around
30:56I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party
30:59Fraud
31:01Holly, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:05What are you talking about?
31:08Just ask the models
31:09Any of them
31:10Oh, and Mia
31:13Don't forget about our agreement
31:15About Miranda and Pauline
31:17I won't
31:18Two new beginnings at Chauvet
31:25Speaking of new beginnings
31:33Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:39I want to help
31:40With her education
31:42What?
31:44Vincent, that's too much
31:46We barely know each other
31:47Victoria
31:49I've known you since we were 17
31:52I remember
31:54Watching you win that regional competition
31:57In that silver dress
31:59The one you made from scratch
32:02I saw the way your eyes lit up
32:05When you talked about changing the fashion world
32:09Do you remember that?
32:11I remember everything
32:12I have followed your career
32:17All these years
32:18Just hoping that our paths would cross again
32:21Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:23Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:23You were married
32:25And then you were
32:28And then you were building your career
32:31And the timing just
32:33Was never right
32:34Until now
32:37I've been waiting
32:4720 years to do this
32:50I should probably get this
33:05Mia
33:14God, I was so right about firing Victoria
33:20That Milan disaster you turned around
33:23Absolute magic
33:24And now I have an opportunity
33:26That can put you on the map for good
33:28Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo
33:31For the Oscars' red carpet
33:33Sean Gosling?
33:36The Sean Gosling?
33:37The very one
33:39Three-time Oscar winner
33:40People's Sexiest Man Alive
33:42And if you play our cards right
33:44The next face
33:45Maison Nouveau's hands where
33:46They're taking pitches now
33:48If he picks yours
33:50This changes everything
33:52For you
33:53For the brand
33:54Where it is
33:55Joven's in the running too
33:57Lanthus
33:58Vincent
33:59And support Victoria
34:00Are done
34:01Seal the deal
34:06I'll bump your pay by 20%
34:08I've got this Holly
34:10You won't regret it
34:12God, what am I gonna do?
34:20I can't design menswear
34:22I barely pulled off the woman's
34:24With Victoria's help
34:25Miranda and Felina are gone too
34:27I'm completely on my own
34:29If Holly bought
34:32That I saved Milan
34:34And fixed Paris
34:35When it was
34:35All Victoria
34:37Maybe
34:38I can squeeze
34:39One more miracle over
34:41Thanks for meeting me
35:03I know things are complicated
35:04Between us
35:05You mentioned Miranda and Pauline
35:07Cut to the chase
35:09We're pitching for Sean's Oscar text
35:14Miranda and Pauline are also
35:16Miranda's excellent with menswear
35:18She can handle this without me
35:19Please, wait
35:20There's more to it
35:20After Paris
35:22Holly needed someone to blame
35:23For the fabric disaster
35:25Miranda and Pauline
35:26Are on the chopping block
35:28I've been fighting for them
35:29Are you serious?
35:31Pauline's due any day now
35:33Trust me
35:34I know
35:34This project is our only shot
35:36If we land it
35:37I can convince Holly
35:38To keep them both
35:39Have you worked to Sean before?
35:42No
35:42But I've heard you have
35:43Ages ago
35:45I did a jacket frame
35:47For the Met Gala
35:48Actually, I was sketching
35:50A new tuxedo concept
35:51Right before I left
35:52Maison Valor
35:53Really?
35:54What concept?
35:59Well
36:00Perfect
36:14She's handing everything over
36:15Without even realizing
36:16I'll use her design
36:18To save my ass
36:19And lay on this project
36:21Do you still have
36:23Any of the sketches somewhere?
36:25I do
36:26Actually
36:27I took them with me
36:29When I left Maison Laveau
36:30Wait
36:32Miranda went on maternity leave
36:35Last week
36:35How exactly is she part of this project?
36:38Well
36:39Since she's the best menswear designer
36:41We have
36:42Holly's letting her work from home
36:43Is the company covering
36:45Her health insurance?
36:47Of course
36:48Vic
36:49Pauline and Miranda's jobs
36:51Are on the line here
36:52Are on the line here
36:53Oh
36:53Don't
36:54What is she
36:54Do you do, Scott?
36:56Take all the time you need
36:58Mia
36:59Don't make me regret trusting you
37:03Again
37:04Pumpkin, I'm going to love you
37:16You're going to love you
37:17I'm going to love you
37:18Pumpkin, I'm going to love you
37:19Pumpkin, I'm going to love you
37:20Pumpkin, I'm going to love you
37:21Pumpkin, I'm going to love you
37:22I need a quick favor.
37:24Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on
37:26before everything went sideways?
37:28The Sean Gosselin one with the black
37:30satin lapels? That's the one.
37:32Can you check my home office?
37:34It should be in the portfolio marked
37:36Men's Formal 2025.
37:38Got it. Grace is napping.
37:40The perfect timing.
37:42Thanks, sweetie. I just need to double check
37:44something about the...
37:48Shoulder.
37:52Mom, are you okay?
37:58Miranda? Vic?
38:04Mom! Mom! What's going on?
38:08Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:10Miranda, what happened?
38:12Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:14Bill's don't pay themselves.
38:16You met my husband
38:18old child with no paycheck
38:20and now there's a newborn
38:22at home.
38:24Mia said you were on maternity leave
38:26working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:28What?
38:30Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:32After you left,
38:34she fired every
38:36pregnant woman in the company.
38:38No severance, no cover, nothing.
38:40Just gone.
38:42That's completely illegal.
38:44Company lawyer said that we all
38:46suddenly violated some buried
38:48performance clause.
38:50All at once.
38:52What are the odds, right?
38:54And Polly, parking night shifts
38:56at 24 hours down here.
38:58Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
39:02And Mia knew about all this.
39:08Mia.
39:10Front row seat when Holly made an announcement.
39:14Didn't even blink.
39:16Too busy admiring her shiny new
39:18create and direct to the title.
39:20She's been using you and Pauline
39:22to manipulate me.
39:24Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:26What?
39:28That bitch!
39:32This ends now.
39:39Damn it!
39:44Here's Miss Michael.
39:46He's just arrived from Milan.
39:48We need approval by noon for them.
39:50Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:58What are y'all looking at? Get back to work!
40:04Victoria would never treat us like this.
40:08I heard that.
40:10You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:12Then where is she now?
40:14Gone.
40:16Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that,
40:18there's the door.
40:20Well at least you can actually design it.
40:22What the hell is going on here?
40:28Just a great disagreement. Everything's under control.
40:32The Gosling page, tell me you have something presentable.
40:40Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:42Show me.
40:44It's not quite ready.
40:45Now!
40:46This is garbage.
40:52Absolute garbage!
40:54I just need a little more time.
40:56We don't have more time.
40:58This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
41:00If Chauvin gets this deal instead of us...
41:06What's that?
41:08It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:18I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil,
41:21get me a winner, design me till morning,
41:23or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:38I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:57Right on cue.
42:01Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:04Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:07The absolute nerve of this woman!
42:12She'll get her a sketch.
42:13And that's when we spin the trap.
42:28You're early.
42:30Vic, I really need that sketch.
42:37I said I'd help.
42:41Not hand over my design.
42:43Holly's all over me about this.
42:46If I don't have something tonight,
42:48Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:51Still lying, Mia.
42:53You never learn.
42:54Guess it's payback time.
42:56So, do you want my help or not?
42:59I can walk you through it.
43:00Your design could be just as good.
43:02She's such a snake.
43:06Vic, my stomach is killing me.
43:08Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:11Fine.
43:12But don't touch anything.
43:14Anything.
43:15I'm sorry, Vic.
43:24Survival of the fittest.
43:26You do.
43:27I'm sorry, Vic.
43:28Survival of the fittest.
43:29I'm fine.
43:32I'm sorry, Vic.
43:33It's all my stuff.
43:34What?
43:37It's all my stuff.
43:38Oh, I'm fine.
43:39I'm fine.
43:41I'm not familiar.
43:42I'm fine.
43:43I'm not familiar.
43:44I'm fine.
43:45You're fine.
43:46But don't, I'm fine.
43:47I'm fine.
43:48I'm fine.
43:49I'm fine.
43:50You're fine.
43:51I don't know.
43:52Sorry.
43:53You just let her take your work?
43:58She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:04You know boss, we could pitch ourselves, go after the same clients, show them what real
44:10design looks like.
44:12We're not out yet.
44:23I heard there's a revolution, bro.
44:33Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:38You're welcome mom.
44:43I want you and your team as your van.
44:48Full creative control.
44:50I'm Miranda, your husband's debt, handled.
44:55And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:59Mr. Chevalier, I...
45:01I'm Pauline, your sister is in good hands.
45:05The best heart surgeon in the country is already prepping for her neck surgery.
45:10Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
45:14Don't thank me.
45:15Thank Victoria.
45:17I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:21Vincent, I...I don't even know what to say.
45:25It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:29You know what I actually believe in life.
45:34If you've texted the people, once you've done, it is a perfect unit for yourself.
45:39I don't want to clarify anything.
45:41Good news about just what you've done.
45:43Thanks.
45:43And now, we can go ahead and push up into very an amazing experience.
45:45I'm leaving it right into a carriage.
45:46Don't bring it in.
45:48Even around.
45:49I definitely haven't.
45:50It's because it's interesting, but.
45:52You know how to move?
45:53Don't try yourself so fast.
45:54It's because it doesn't just center you.
45:55You know, don't worry about yourself.
46:27And you're still here.
46:38Final tweaks.
46:39The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:44You've got Grace to sleep.
46:49Yeah.
46:51And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:53Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
47:06We're about to make history.
47:10Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:13We don't follow trends.
47:15We create them.
47:16Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Met Gala moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:30I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:33What is that bitch doing here?
47:46Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:50My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:55I didn't expect to see you here.
47:58We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
48:06Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:11You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
48:15The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:17And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:23Pregnant women talk, you know.
48:25Tiny X and 3s and a rival CEO.
48:28What's next?
48:28The bake sale?
48:31Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:32You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:35And what real loyalty looks like.
48:37Sean, I'm glad you could make it.
48:53We have something very special to show you.
48:58Vic.
49:02I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
49:06Congratulations.
49:07Thank you, Sean.
49:08It's good to see you.
49:10Let's begin the pitches.
49:14You ready to lose?
49:15You're out of your league.
49:17You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:28First up, Mia McMichael, Maison Laveau.
49:48Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:51Beautiful work.
50:02Both themes.
50:03We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:08After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
50:20Maison Laveau.
50:21Yes!
50:22Oh my God.
50:23Of course.
50:25This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
50:28Wasn't it?
50:39What the hell did you people put me in?
50:42Are you trying to kill me?
50:44Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:47Who designed this tuxedo?
50:48Did you even read the brief?
50:52I mean, you must have read the brief.
50:55It's not complicated.
50:56It says no synthetic blend.
50:59I mean, it must be some kind of mistake.
51:02Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
51:04A mistake?
51:05I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:08Victoria, please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your last design.
51:14I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:26I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
51:29And that's why Victoria's the best.
51:31She actually pays attention.
51:33After reviewing all of the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:37The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:41Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip up.
51:46Nia's design was the front runner all along.
51:49That's why they picked her first.
51:51Maybe everyone should see this.
51:56Wait, Nia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:06That's a new low, even for you.
52:18Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
52:21And so you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design theft.
52:27Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:32We're suspending all collaborations.
52:44Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:47You're blacklisted.
52:53Victoria, please.
52:57I'll do anything, please.
53:10Just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
53:15You made your choices, Holly.
53:17Now you live with them.
53:20You finally went too far.
53:27Sean Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Joven.
53:32Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:36To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
53:54And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
54:01Mom, you might want to see this.
54:04Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:14Happy birthday to you!
54:19Happy birthday to you!
54:24Guys, look!
54:28Maison Laveau on the brink?
54:30The scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:34Ouch!
54:35I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:38Strange, isn't it?
54:39I gave them everything.
54:40Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:54Now it's all crashing down.
54:56I thought I'd feel vindicated.
54:58Honestly, it's a weird mix.
55:02Relief?
55:03Sure, but also a little bit of grief.
55:07Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
55:10Look at this!
55:13Joven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
55:19Victoria, this is you!
55:21You did this!
55:23Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers.
55:28Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
55:33Careful, Vincent. You almost forgot the best part.
55:48Victoria Winter.
55:53Will you marry me?
55:58Yes!
55:59A thousand times yes!
56:02Woo!
56:03Woo!
56:04A thousand times, yes.
56:06Woo!
56:26Let's spread the hamper!
56:34You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:48I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:51When word got out you left. Clients bailed.
56:56The board freaked. Numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
57:01You steered Maison Laveau into this storm, Holly.
57:05I know. I know.
57:19My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
57:26I destroyed everything.
57:30I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
57:36I didn't mean for it to end like this.
57:40Maison Laveau isn't dead. I bought it. Last week.
57:44The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of Jeven now.
57:52If you want it, why would you do that?
57:55To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
58:02You win, Victoria. I hope you do better than I did.
58:07I'll do it differently.
58:11Goodbye, Holly.
58:13Miss Winter, I just... I wanted to thank you.
58:25Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
58:31I can keep working and have my baby. You changed everything.
58:50Congratulations. Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:55Ready?
59:05Always.
59:09And now, Jovan's new collection...
