Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no. The system crashed mid-upload. Half the collection is the wrong season. We're on everything.
00:00:20Runway is in 48 hours. If productions start with these batch designs, we're all dead. Not just fire, we're dead. Company collapses, our careers are over. Come out here and talk to us. We have 8 million tied up in this collection.
00:00:40They're the batch ninja. Right now, one word for me, your industry toys in here.
00:00:59Enough.
00:01:01Mick!
00:01:04Mia, Japanese indigo. Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7. Pauline, handle those ultras.
00:01:18Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
00:01:22It's 28 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
00:01:2627 now. Tick tock.
00:01:34I'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. This will shatter every record.
00:02:0128 minutes.
00:02:0228 minutes.
00:02:0329 minutes.
00:02:0420 minutes.
00:02:0530 minutes.
00:02:0630 minutes.
00:02:0735 minutes.
00:02:08Vet, are you okay?
00:02:10Just practicing the heck? It's nothing to do with you.
00:02:18My god, your water broke.
00:02:21Mom, 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 I told him that he lost his visiting privileges
00:02:43since he decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
00:02:48That's my girl.
00:02:51Well, the company's yours now, Holly, but there's a condition.
00:03:05We 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.
00:03:18Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster, they get immunity.
00:03:26In fact, they deserve a promotion.
00:03:29No way, Visitori went to where saved the company since she's not even there.
00:03:41Boss, the Milan collection crisis? Averted. Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:47You saved the entire collection? Impressive.
00:03:49Oh, actually, how about I make you the new creative director, starting today.
00:03:57Oh my God, is this really happening?
00:04:00She's offering me Victoria's job?
00:04:03I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
00:04:11But, Victoria...
00:04:11Don't worry about her.
00:04:13I'm not useless. I'm just going to have fire.
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.
00:04:31Hold them right into the fabric.
00:04:32And 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 ain't have to.
00:04:48We're going to that private school.
00:04:51No discussion.
00:04:52Your sister and I will manage just fine.
00:04:55This job will keep us afloat.
00:04:58I love you, Mom.
00:05:02Holy 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 Laveau.
00:06:05Maternity leave, medical insurance.
00:06:08These preggos are bleeding us dry.
00:06:11Everything okay here?
00:06:12Great timing.
00:06:18Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
00:06:21Clear out your desk now.
00:06:23You'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.
00:06:41Well, that's ancient history.
00:06:45The board wants fresh blood.
00:06:47And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
00:06:55What?
00:06:56I'm the one who...
00:06:59Mia, you...
00:07:02Feel that curve.
00:07:04That's her signature.
00:07:05That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
00:07:12How could you?
00:07:14I taught you everything you know.
00:07:23I wish things were different, Vic.
00:07:25I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:36What happens to my team?
00:07:38Miranda 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.
00:07:49Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
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.
00:08:07No real protection.
00:08:08But hey, that's corporate America for you.
00:08:11Or we can shift the math.
00:08:14You sign.
00:08:16They stay.
00:08:17The budget works out.
00:08:18Well, 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.
00:08:38Because they care about them.
00:08:40Believe it.
00:08:41Will, if you're one of those days.
00:08:47Please.
00:08:48I'm just kidding.
00:08:50I'll be able to come.
00:08:51I'll be able to meet you.
00:08:52Bye-bye.
00:08:52Bye-bye.
00:08:53Bye-bye.
00:08:53Bye-bye.
00:08:54Bye-bye.
00:08:55Bye-bye.
00:09:06Bye-bye.
00:09:06Bye-bye.
00:09:06Bye-bye.
00:09:07Bye-bye.
00:09:07Bye-bye.
00:09:08Bye-bye.
00:09:09Bye-bye.
00:09:09Bye-bye.
00:09:10That's why seven to package after 15 years, that's what I'm worth to them.
00:09:22Be careful, I got you.
00:09:38Vincent? Vincent Chevalier.
00:09:48Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:10:04So, it's true.
00:10:08Grey Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Nisan Laveau's Milan collection.
00:10:16How 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.
00:10:28What are you getting at exactly?
00:10:32I'm talking about you and me.
00:10:36Pardons.
00:10:38Your genius, my money.
00:10:42No corporate BS.
00:10:44No one holding me back.
00:10:46I'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.
00:11:00Vincent Chevalier, wow.
00:11:04You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
00:11:10Got your spy here?
00:11:12Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here.
00:11:18Soft landing.
00:11:20Triple her salary, corner office.
00:11:24You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
00:11:28Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
00:11:30Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas?
00:11:34It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
00:11:40I mean the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
00:11:46The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
00:11:49If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:55Shit, shit, shit.
00:11:57What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this?
00:12:01Actually, those were my designs.
00:12:08What 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, but 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, Mia.
00:12:30That explained my signature.
00:12:34On the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:42So what?
00:12:43Sketches get past her and all the time.
00:12:45It doesn't prove squat.
00:12:46Maybe she was your little...
00:12:48What do they call it?
00:12:49This designer?
00:12:51And the logo?
00:12:53The EW woven in Victoria's signature mark.
00:12:59It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:13:02Mommy, explain it. Make me shut up.
00:13:05It's funny.
00:13:10All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's using.
00:13:15They all have EW and GW so they 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, Mia.
00:13:31Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
00:13:35Well, Mia, tell them.
00:13:37Tell them you designed this.
00:13:39Tell them you saved Milan.
00:13:41The logo?
00:13:42It's...
00:13:43It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:48You lying little bitch!
00:13:51Black 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.
00:14:16One upright.
00:14:17It's not for Grace or Emily.
00:14:21It's mine.
00:14:23That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:26Oh my god, she's right.
00:14:27It does look more like two M's.
00:14:29Human M's.
00:14:32Human M's.
00:14:33You really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:38You learned well, Mia.
00:14:41Maybe too well.
00:14:42You'll regret this.
00:14:46I'm not Vincent.
00:14:48We don't have to sink 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.
00:15:00Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:15:06Just take care of the matter 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.
00:15:24Hold on, Victoria.
00:15:26I'll see you soon.
00:15:28A VIP invitation passed fashion week.
00:15:32Prompt room.
00:15:33I've even found it,
00:15:34shining.
00:15:43Every pregnant woman fired.
00:15:46All of us.
00:15:47Just like that! No severance, no warning, nothing! But a box and a security escort!
00:16:00Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities!
00:16:04Your termination people wouldn't practically pay for your sign and bonus made right in Star.
00:16:09Now, about Paris fashion. Your designs are eerily awaited.
00:16:17You should have kept your legs closed.
00:16:28Oh my god, mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:33Victoria Wintour. A nuclear vick.
00:16:36Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
00:16:40We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Lavaux.
00:16:44Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:49Wait. Miss Oliveau?
00:16:53Well, well. The Queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
00:16:57Brave of you to show up here.
00:16:59What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
00:17:04Leaving so soon? You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:17:07Does mommy dearest build you in on her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
00:17:17Mommy, that's true.
00:17:22Don't worry. She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
00:17:26Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour. Still pretending she matters.
00:17:35My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:17:39If Miss Oliveau was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash and burn.
00:17:46That'll look at that. It seems entitlement runs in the family.
00:17:49Say whatever you want about me and leave my daughter out of it.
00:17:54That's gotta sting, huh?
00:17:56Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
00:18:00Hey, good news. There'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.
00:18:09That's enough.
00:18:11That's enough.
00:18:15That's enough.
00:18:17You'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.
00:18:28That dress.
00:18:30It's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:33Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
00:18:36It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
00:18:43What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:18:46Remove 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 her now.
00:19:01Vincent.
00:19:11You're dismissed.
00:19:21You alright?
00:19:25You alright?
00:19:27Lookin' for it.
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?
00:19:38That knockoff?
00:19:40That you so here to trash her for?
00:19:43It's Chevenne.
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 you wanted me.
00:20:05Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
00:20:08Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
00:20:11Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight, he's her walking trust fund.
00:20:16Victoria'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.
00:20:35CEO of Jevenne.
00:20:38And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
00:20:44I have followed your career from a distance for years.
00:20:49Your 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?
00:21:00I'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.
00:21:17You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
00:21:21She's nothing but a has-been.
00:21:23The show is about to start.
00:21:26Your seats are waiting.
00:21:27You're waiting.
00:21:33Holy shit.
00:21:35The industry Boldenboy and the creative powerhouse together?
00:21:38Talk about a power couple.
00:21:40They can run the entire industry.
00:21:43This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:45Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:46What's the problem?
00:21:47It's over.
00:21:56So you seriously did I have loved my mom since high school?
00:22:00What?
00:22:04Some talents you recognize immediately.
00:22:06recognize immediately. Some people too. Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
00:22:18I have an important announcement. This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief. She's been
00:22:24stealing designs from my creative director for years. It's true. She took my work and passed
00:22:32it off as her own. I slaved away on those designs day and night. And Victoria had the nerve to pass
00:22:41them off as her own. That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria? Your entire career
00:22:51is based on lies and manipulation. That's enough, Holly. Everyone thinks you're this creative genius,
00:22:59but I know what you really are. Your 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? That's her real design strategy.
00:23:12Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself. And those kids she's so proud of, who knows who
00:23:17their real products are? Oh, dear you!
00:23:22It's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
00:23:32Not now.
00:23:38The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights. The dresses are literally falling apart.
00:23:45We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime. Is this some kind of sick joke, Maison Movala?
00:23:50Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence? This is completely unprofessional.
00:23:56I have 10 million invested in this collection. This 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 Movala 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?
00:24:32This show doesn't happen.
00:24:34You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
00:24:36This. We're talking buildings, homie.
00:24:40Buildings.
00:25:04What's this?
00:25:05Now.
00:25:08How?
00:25:09The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials.
00:25:12I can't magically make new dresses in an hour.
00:25:16You 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, now I'm ready for it.
00:25:31I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
00:25:35Miss Winter, how do you respond of accusations over design theft?
00:25:49Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
00:25:54Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
00:25:57And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
00:26:02We're gathering evidence as we speak.
00:26:03What do you want, Mia?
00:26:17Excuse me.
00:26:18It's okay, Pop.
00:26:20Help me right.
00:26:22What do you want, Mia?
00:26:25Nick, I really need your help.
00:26:36Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
00:26:39Look, I know you're furious.
00:26:43I would be too.
00:26:45But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
00:26:48What about them?
00:26:49Their jobs are on the line with the show.
00:26:52If we tank, they're done.
00:26:54Holly will fire them without a second thought.
00:26:57Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out with you.
00:27:03Miranda and Pauline are responsible for the show.
00:27:05Yes, absolutely, and they're counting on this being a hit.
00:27:10Please, Nick, not for me.
00:27:13For them.
00:27:14For school.
00:27:15I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
00:27:20What exactly happened to them, Mia?
00:27:25They, they couldn't make it.
00:27:27Holly cut the travel budget.
00:27:30Is that right?
00:27:31Victoria, I know I don't deserve your help.
00:27:40Fine.
00:27:42I'll help.
00:27:43But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline.
00:27:46Not for you.
00:27:47Oh, my God.
00:28:00It's Victoria Winter.
00:28:01A nuclear beck.
00:28:03I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric now.
00:28:13I need royal fuchsia for the stitching.
00:28:15Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
00:28:18Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
00:28:24Would this work?
00:28:31Vincent, how did you...
00:28:34I figured you might need some supplies, so...
00:28:37I had my assistant bring over Joven's emergency kit.
00:28:40This is perfect, but Joven and Maison Laveau are competitors.
00:28:47Why would you help them?
00:28:50I'm not helping them.
00:28:53I'm helping you.
00:28:56I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
00:28:59I have a design I've been saving.
00:29:01Something special I've never shown anyone.
00:29:04It's yours now.
00:29:05I don't want your design, Victoria.
00:29:10Then what do you want?
00:29:13You.
00:29:16What?
00:29:20You're a talent.
00:29:22You're a vision.
00:29:24Come and work.
00:29:25I should have had.
00:29:27I'm in.
00:29:28I'll work for you.
00:29:29Just like that.
00:29:31Just like that.
00:29:33Now, let me finish my final job for Maison Laveau.
00:29:37I hate it when I call her school.
00:29:44I wish I was cool.
00:29:47Like the new girl at school.
00:29:49I regret it.
00:29:51So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get.
00:29:53I won't keep fighting.
00:29:57Don't let it change.
00:30:00I'm gonna be proud of my name.
00:30:03She's doing it in minutes.
00:30:06What would have taken us hours.
00:30:09Whoa.
00:30:10No wonder they call her the nuclear pick.
00:30:13It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
00:30:16The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
00:30:25Five minutes to a show time.
00:30:27You made it.
00:30:33Well, do we pull the plug or not?
00:30:43We're good.
00:30:44Everything's back on track.
00:30:46See?
00:30:47I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
00:30:50You've got twice your talent.
00:30:53Yeah, right.
00:30:55This is exactly why I promoted you.
00:30:57Your business is not Nathan.
00:30:59The real hero of the night.
00:31:11Two Victoria.
00:31:12The real hero of the night.
00:31:13Well, you're insane. I 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.
00:31:36Well, well, still hanging around. I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party. Fraud.
00:31:48Pauline, 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.
00:31:59Oh, and Mia, don't forget about our agreement. About Miranda and Pauline.
00:32:04I think I will.
00:32:11Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
00:32:20Speaking of new beginnings, Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
00:32:27I want to help. With her education.
00:32:30What? Vincent, that's too much. We barely know each other.
00:32:35Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
00:32:40I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress, the one you made from scratch.
00:32:50I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
00:32:58You remember that?
00:33:00I remember everything.
00:33:01I 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.
00:33:16And then you were building your career.
00:33:19The timing was just never right.
00:33:25Until now.
00:33:26I have been working at him for 20 years to be with him.
00:33:52I should probably get this.
00:33:56Mia?
00:34:04God, I'm so right about firing Victoria.
00:34:10That Milan disaster you turned around? Absolute magic.
00:34:14And now I have an opportunity that could put you on the map for good.
00:34:18Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
00:34:24Sean Gosling?
00:34:26The Sean Gosling?
00:34:28The very one, three-time Oscar winner, People's Sexiest Man Alive.
00:34:32And if we play our cards right, the next face remains on the both ends there.
00:34:38They're taking pitches now.
00:34:40If he picks yours, this changes everything.
00:34:42For you, for the brand.
00:34:44Where it is, Joe Ben's in the running too.
00:34:48Lanthus, Vincent, or Victoria are done.
00:34:52Seal the deal?
00:34:56I'll bump your pay by 20%.
00:34:58I've got this, Holly. You won't regret it.
00:35:02God, what am I gonna do? I can't design menswear.
00:35:14I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
00:35:16Miranda and Felina are gone too.
00:35:18I'm completely on my own.
00:35:20If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
00:35:28maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over here.
00:35:54Thanks for meeting me. I know things are complicated between us.
00:35:58You mentioned Miranda and Pauline. Cut to the chase.
00:36:05We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tucks. Miranda and Pauline are also on the table.
00:36:09Miranda's excellent at menswear. She can handle this without me.
00:36:12Please, wait. There's more to it.
00:36:14After Paris, Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
00:36:18Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block. I've been fighting for them.
00:36:22Are you serious? Pauline's due any day now.
00:36:26Trust me, I know. This project is our only shot.
00:36:29If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them both.
00:36:32Have you worked with Sean before?
00:36:34No, but I've heard you have.
00:36:36Ages ago, I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala.
00:36:41Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept frame right before I left Maison Hall.
00:36:46Really? What content?
00:36:52Well...
00:36:53Perfect, she's handing everything over without even realizing.
00:36:56I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
00:37:02Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
00:37:06I do. Actually, I... I took him with me when I left Maison LaBeau.
00:37:11Wait. Miranda went on maternity leave last week. How exactly is she part of this project?
00:37:15Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's letting her work from home.
00:37:17Is the company covering her health insurance?
00:37:18Of course, Vic.
00:37:19Colleen and Miranda's jobs are on the line.
00:37:20I don't know.
00:37:21Do you have any of the sketches somewhere?
00:37:22I do.
00:37:23Actually, I... I took him with me when I left Maison LaBeau.
00:37:26Wait.
00:37:27Miranda went on maternity leave last week. How exactly is she part of this project?
00:37:32Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's letting her work from home.
00:37:38Is the company covering her health insurance?
00:37:41Of course, Vic.
00:37:44Colleen and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
00:37:47You need to know about it. Take all the time you need.
00:37:53Mia, don't make me regret trusting me. Again.
00:38:14Pumpkin, I need a quick favor. Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
00:38:23The Sean Gosselin one with the black side from lapels?
00:38:27That's the one. Can you check my home office? It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
00:38:33Got it. Grace is napping. The perfect timing.
00:38:37Thanks, sweetie. I just need to go and check something about that.
00:38:41Shoulder.
00:38:46Destruction.
00:38:48Mom, are you okay?
00:38:54Miranda? Vic?
00:39:01Mom, Mom, what's going on?
00:39:03Emily, I'll call you right back.
00:39:06Brenda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
00:39:11Those don't pay themselves.
00:39:13You had left my house with an old charitable paycheck and now there's a newborn at home.
00:39:19Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
00:39:24What? Is that the story she's spinning?
00:39:28After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
00:39:34No severance, no copper and nothing. Just gone.
00:39:38That's completely illegal.
00:39:41Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
00:39:46All at once. What are the odds, right?
00:39:51And Polly, working night shifts at 24 hours diner.
00:39:56Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
00:39:59And Mia knew about all this.
00:40:06Mia. Front row seat when Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink.
00:40:12Too busy admiring her shiny new creative director title.
00:40:17She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me.
00:40:21Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
00:40:24What? That bitch!
00:40:30This ends now.
00:40:37Damn it!
00:40:43My name is Miss Michael.
00:40:44Let's just arrive from Milan.
00:40:46We need approval by name for that.
00:40:48Can't you see I'm working on something important?
00:40:51What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
00:41:04Victoria would never change.
00:41:08I heard that.
00:41:09You think Victoria is so perfect?
00:41:12Then where is she now?
00:41:14Gone.
00:41:15Now I'm in charge.
00:41:16And if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
00:41:19Well, 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 in control.
00:41:33The gossip bitch, tell me you have something presentable.
00:41:40Of course, I'm just finalizing the details.
00:41:42Show me.
00:41:44It's not quite ready.
00:41:45Now.
00:41:49This is garbage.
00:41:50Absolute garbage.
00:41:51I just need a little more time.
00:41:52We don't have more time.
00:41:53This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
00:41:54If she then gets this deal instead of us.
00:41:55What's that?
00:41:56It's just some inspiration.
00:41:57I recorded for the design.
00:41:58I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:02Get me when you design me till morning.
00:42:03Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:04I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:05Get me when you design me till morning.
00:42:06Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:09Oh, I'm gonna-
00:42:12Oh, what?
00:42:13Oh.
00:42:14Oh.
00:42:15That's true.
00:42:16No, I'm gonna go to the edge.
00:42:17I will try and finish.
00:42:18I will try.
00:42:19But the next day is the end.
00:42:20It's just some inspiration.
00:42:21I recorded for the design.
00:42:22I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:23Get me when you design me till morning.
00:42:24Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:26I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:56Right on cue.
00:43:03Meet that sketch ASAP.
00:43:06Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:43:09The absolute nerve of this woman is...
00:43:14She'll get her sketch, and that's where we spin the trap.
00:43:22Bec, I really need that sketch.
00:43:35I said I'd help, not hand over my design.
00:43:42Holly's all over me about this.
00:43:49If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:43:55Still lying, Mia.
00:43:56You never learn.
00:43:57Guess it's payback time.
00:43:59So, 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.
00:44:08Vic, my stomach is killing me.
00:44:11Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
00:44:15Fine.
00:44:16Don't touch anything.
00:44:19I'm sorry about the survival of the fittest.
00:44:44I'm sorry about the survival of the fittest.
00:44:59You 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.
00:45:10Go after the same clients.
00:45:12Show them what real design looks like.
00:45:15We're not out yet.
00:45:17I heard there's a revolution room.
00:45:32More lights.
00:45:39I think so.
00:45:42I wouldn't say that.
00:45:47I would rather suck everybody.
00:45:49I've never stopped planning.
00:45:53It's really bad.
00:45:54Just kidding, man.
00:45:59and 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.
00:46:11The best heart surgeon in the country
00:46:12is already prepping for her next surgery.
00:46:16Mr. Chevalier!
00:46:18Thank you!
00:46:19Don't thank me.
00:46:21Thank Victoria.
00:46:22I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:46:26Vincent, I...
00:46:28I don't even know what to say.
00:46:31It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:46:34Thank you!
00:47:37We're here.
00:47:42And you're still here.
00:47:44Final tweaks.
00:47:46The pitch goes out tomorrow.
00:47:51You've got Grace to sleep.
00:47:56Yeah.
00:47:58And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
00:48:01Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
00:48:11Remember, smile.
00:48:13We're about to make history.
00:48:17Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:48:20We don't follow trends.
00:48:22We create them.
00:48:29Fat and black lapels.
00:48:31Nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcala moment.
00:48:34A blend of tradition and boldness.
00:48:37I 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.
00:48:58My 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.
00:49:09I multitask.
00:49:14Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:49:18You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategy's working wonders.
00:49:23The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:49:26And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
00:49:31Pregnant woman talk, you know.
00:49:33Three X and threes in a life of CEO.
00:49:36A flex.
00:49:37The trade sale?
00:49:37Laugh all you want, Holly.
00:49:41We're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
00:49:44And what real loyalty looks like.
00:49:59Sean, glad you could make it.
00:50:01We have something very special to show you.
00:50:07Pick.
00:50:07I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
00:50:15Congratulations.
00:50:16Thank you, Sean.
00:50:17It's good to see you.
00:50:19Let's begin the pitches.
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.
00:50:28First up, me and McMichael.
00:50:38Maison Laveau.
00:50:38Next is Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:59Beautiful work.
00:51:11Both themes.
00:51:12We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:51:18After careful consideration, we're awarding the project to...
00:51:27Maison Laveau.
00:51:31You're out of your league.
00:51:32You're out of your league.
00:51:32You're out of your league.
00:51:33You're out of your league.
00:51:34Oh, my God.
00:51:35Of course.
00:51:36This is what we planned all along, wasn't it?
00:51:39What 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 his tuxedo?
00:51:58Did 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. I mean, it must be some kind of mistake. Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
00:52:15A 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.
00:52:36I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
00:52:39And that's why Victoria's the best. She 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.
00:52:54Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip-up.
00:52:57Mia's design was the front runner all along.
00:52:59Well, that's why they picked her first.
00:53:05Maybe everyone should see this.
00:53:13Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:53:20That's a new low.
00:53:21Oh, even for you.
00:53:27Maison Laveau, we'll be hearing from my liars.
00:53:31And so you know,
00:53:33I will be supporting Victoria's case for design night.
00:53:38Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:53:41We're suspending all collaborations.
00:53:44Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
00:53:57You're blacklisted.
00:54:03Victoria, please.
00:54:04Victoria, please.
00:54:16I'll do anything.
00:54:17Please just help me save the company,
00:54:19the brand you built for 15 years.
00:54:22You made your choices, Holly.
00:54:24Now you live with them.
00:54:28You finally went too far.
00:54:29Sean Gosling's look tonight is a dame junior
00:54:38crafted by the trailblazing team at Joben.
00:54:41Social media is already calling it
00:54:43the Winter Revolution.
00:54:52To the best comeback in fashion history
00:54:55and to the women who made it happen.
00:54:58And to the maternity leave
00:55:00that actually means something.
00:55:05Mom, you might want to see this.
00:55:17Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:55:22Happy 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.
00:55:43Strange, isn't it?
00:55:48I gave them everything.
00:55:50Late nights, weekends,
00:55:52all the best years
00:55:54and they tossed us aside
00:55:55like we were nothing.
00:55:58Now it's all crashing down.
00:55:59I thought I felt vindicated.
00:56:02Honestly, it's a weird mix.
00:56:05Relief, sure,
00:56:06but also a little bit of grief.
00:56:09Look,
00:56:10who said that our best years are behind us?
00:56:12Look at this!
00:56:14Jevain pushes for
00:56:17pay, leave, and parental support
00:56:19across all industries.
00:56:21Victoria, this is you!
00:56:23You did this!
00:56:26Here's to a future
00:56:27where women don't have to choose
00:56:29between their families
00:56:30and their careers.
00:56:32Not just for us,
00:56:33but for every woman
00:56:34who comes after.
00:56:36Careful, Vincent.
00:56:38You must forgot the best part.
00:56:39Victoria Winsor.
00:56:56Will you marry me?
00:57:01Yes!
00:57:03A thousand times yes!
00:57:05Woohoo!
00:57:05Yeah!
00:57:09Take my heart and go for your hands.
00:57:15I've been spending all my days
00:57:17just running out of front of my head.
00:57:23Give me love and listen to me.
00:57:25I've spent the effort.
00:57:26I've spent the effort.
00:57:39You came.
00:57:45I thought you'd want to see me like this.
00:57:47I came because
00:57:48I wanted to hear it from you.
00:57:51When word got out,
00:57:52you left.
00:57:53Clients failed.
00:57:56The board freaked.
00:57:57Numbers tanked.
00:57:59I couldn't stop it.
00:58:01You stood me as on the boat
00:58:03into this storm, Holly.
00:58:04I know.
00:58:10I know.
00:58:12My father...
00:58:14The stress gave him a heart attack.
00:58:16He won't even speak to me anymore.
00:58:19I destroyed everything.
00:58:22My thoughts,
00:58:23slashing costs
00:58:24would save us,
00:58:25but instead I gutted the company.
00:58:29I don't mean to pretend like this.
00:58:32Maison Laval isn't dead.
00:58:34I bought it
00:58:35last week.
00:58:38The brand,
00:58:39the archives,
00:58:40even the debt.
00:58:42It's part of Jeven now.
00:58:45People, why would you do that?
00:58:47To make sure that no more women
00:58:49have to suffer
00:58:50because 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 Wintour,
00:59:23I just,
00:59:24I want to thank you.
00:59:27Because of your campaign,
00:59:28my company gave me maternity leave.
00:59:32I can keep working
00:59:33and have my baby.
00:59:37You changed everything.
00:59:40Congratulations.
00:59:42Wishing you and your little one
00:59:43every happiness.
00:59:44Ready?
00:59:54Ready?
00:59:59Always.
00:59:59And now, Jovan's new collection
