00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:12The system crashed mid-upload.
00:14Half the collection was the wrong season.
00:16Wrong everything.
00:18No.
00:20The runways in 48 hours.
00:24The production starts with these botched designs.
00:26We're all dead.
00:28Not just fired, but his head.
00:30Company collapses, our careers are over.
00:33Come out here and talk to us.
00:35We have 8 million tied up in this collection.
00:38I have a fashion editor from Vogue.
00:40Right now, one word for me, your industry poison.
00:43Enough.
00:58Vic!
01:00Mia, Japanese indigo.
01:04Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:08Pauline, handle those vultures.
01:15Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:1928 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
01:2327 now.
01:25Tick tock.
01:45I'm done. Crisis averted.
01:47I swear to god, you're not human.
01:5027 minutes.
01:52Holy shit.
01:53Pre-orders are flooding in.
01:54This will shatter every record.
02:04Vic, are you okay?
02:07Just Brax and Hicks, nothing to...
02:09Oh my god, your water broke.
02:21Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:26Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:28Dad called.
02:31He 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.
02:44No.
02:54Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:56But there's...
02:58a condition.
03:00We need to slash costs.
03:02Immediately.
03:04Layoffs.
03:08Absent without leave.
03:10Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:12Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster, they get immunity.
03:19In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
03:26No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:34Boss, the Milan collection crisis? A burden.
03:38Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:39You? You saved the entire collection? Impressive.
03:43Oh, actually...
03:45How about I make you the new creative director?
03:48Starting today.
03:50Oh my god, is this really happening?
03:53She's offering me Victoria's job?
03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
03:58But... Victoria...
03:59Don't worry about her.
04:00I'm not useless.
04:01I'm going to smack fire.
04:02You know that collection I just rescued, Em?
04:04I hid something in the design.
04:06Your initials and now little graces.
04:07Hold them right into the fabric.
04:08And that's gonna be Milan Runway?
04:09Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:10Enough for your full tuition of privacy.
04:11Mom, you don't have to.
04:12You're going to that Marty's job.
04:13I am not the only thing.
04:14Is that a lot of money?
04:16You know that collection I just rescued, Em?
04:17I hid something in the design.
04:18Your initials and now little graces.
04:19I'll hold them right into the fabric.
04:20I hid something in the design.
04:21I hid something in the design.
04:22Your initials and now little graces.
04:23I'll hold them right into the fabric.
04:24And that's gonna give him a long runway?
04:31Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:35Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:38Mom, you don't have to.
04:40You're going to that private school.
04:42No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:47This job will keep us afloat.
04:49I love you, Mom.
04:54Holy 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.
05:24Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
05:36What the hell?
05:37Listen up, everyone.
05:39Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:41Effective immediately.
05:43You can't just do that.
05:45She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:48They're a loss against this.
05:50Vic worked while in labor.
05:52She's the creative backbone of Maison Nouveau.
05:55Maternity leave, medical insurance, these preggles are bleeding us dry.
06:01Everything okay here?
06:06Great timing.
06:07Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:10Clear out your desk now.
06:21You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:23I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll.
06:27How many times?
06:31Well, that's ancient history.
06:34The board wants fresh blood.
06:37And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
06:44What?
06:45I'm the one who...
06:48Mia, you...
06:51Feel that curve?
06:53That's her signature.
06:54That's what makes it Maison Nouveau.
07:01How could you?
07:02I taught you everything you know.
07:11I wish things were different, Vic.
07:15I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:24What happens to my team?
07:25Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:32Things got so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:36Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the loo.
07:41These jobs are their lifelines.
07:43Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:45You can't just throw them away!
07:48Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:52No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection, but hey, that's corporate America for you.
07:58Or, we can shift the math.
08:01You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:05Think of it as...
08:08Taking one for the team.
08:11Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
08:14And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:17They can't lose their jobs.
08:23Come on, Vic. You say you care about them.
08:26Prove it.
08:27Do the beat.
08:28You too lot.
08:29What do you think, in the heart of mine?
08:32Youдеal, baby.
08:34There a heart of his not available on the planet.
08:47Someone never did what you think...
08:51the heart of hisạn.
08:52So, I get out on the earth.
08:53Five grand.
09:03That's my severance package after 15 years.
09:06That's what I'm worth to them.
09:20Careful.
09:23I got you.
09:29Vincent?
09:31Vincent Chevalier?
09:33Hi.
09:36High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:48So, it's true.
09:50Great 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.
10:11What are you getting at exactly?
10:14I'm talking about you and me.
10:19Partners.
10:20Partners.
10:20You're genius.
10:22My money.
10:23No corporate BS.
10:25No one holding you back.
10:27I've got a baby to think about now.
10:30And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:35Just saying.
10:36Vincent Chevalier, wow.
10:43I didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
10:45Got your spine here?
10:48Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria your soft landing.
10:50Triple her salary, corner office.
10:52You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
10:55Oh, so you're dumpster diving now, rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas?
11:16Wow, that's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:22I mean, the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:28The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:31If her work is so far beneath you, then maybe you should just strip.
11:37Shit, shit, shit.
11:39What are you talking about?
11:41Victoria designed all of this.
11:49Actually, those were my designs.
11:51What did you just say?
11:55The spring collection.
11:57The Cartier pieces.
11:58I designed them.
12:00Under your supervision, of course, but they came for me.
12:04Oops.
12:05Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
12:08I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:10Then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:18So what?
12:19Skitches get passed around all the time.
12:20It doesn't prove squat.
12:21Maybe she was your little, what do they call it?
12:22Dress designer?
12:23And the logo?
12:24The EW, woven in.
12:25Victoria's signature mark.
12:27It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:30Hold me it.
12:31Explain it.
12:32Make me shut up.
12:33It's funny.
12:34All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing in their life.
12:37They all have EW and GW so many too.
12:38Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
12:40Her newborn is Grace Winter.
12:42It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
12:46It's funny. All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing in their life, they all have EW and GW so many, too. Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter. Her newborn is Grace Winter. It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia. Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
13:14Hmm. Well, Mia, tell them. Tell them you designed this. Tell them you saved Milan.
13:21The logo, it's... it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:28You lying little bitch!
13:31That promotion was for saving the company!
13:37Look at the logo again. It's not EW or GW.
13:42It's actually two M's, M-M, for McMichael, my last name.
13:52See? One M flipped, one upright. It's not for Grace or Emily. It's mine.
14:01That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:04Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two M's.
14:07You manipulate a bitch. You 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.
14:23Martin, sir.
14:25We don't have to sink to that level.
14:27Okay.
14:29Then let me drive you home, Karen.
14:30My Ferrari's outside.
14:31I got this. You shouldn't be carrying it anymore.
14:40Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:44Just take care of Miranda and Paulie, will you?
14:49That's right! Get the hell out of my company!
14:52Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:54Oh, I'm Victoria.
15:04VIP invitation.
15:06Paris Fashion Week.
15:07Front row.
15:08I think you'll find it.
15:10Enlightening.
15:11Every pregnant woman fired.
15:22All of us.
15:23Just like that.
15:25No severance.
15:26No warning.
15:27Nothing.
15:28But a box and a security escort.
15:30Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:40Their termination people weren't practically paid for your signing phone as my writing star.
15:45Now, about Paris Fashion Week.
15:47Your designs are eagerly weighted.
15:52You should have kept your legs closed.
15:54Oh, my God, Mom.
16:05This is insane.
16:06I can't believe we're actually here.
16:08Victoria Wintour.
16:10It's a nuclear Vick.
16:11Your mom's basically a legend.
16:12You know that, right?
16:15We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Levo.
16:19Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:21Wait, Maison Levo?
16:27Well, well.
16:28The Queen without her crown graces us for her presence.
16:32Brave of you to show up here.
16:33What's next?
16:34Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:38Leaving so soon?
16:40You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:43Has Mommy Dearest filled you in on her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
16:48Mom, is that true?
16:56Don't worry.
16:57She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
17:01Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour.
17:03Still pretending she matters.
17:05My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:13If Maison Levo was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash and burn.
17:19Well, look at that.
17:21It seems entitlement runs in the family.
17:23Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:27That's got a sting, huh?
17:29Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero.
17:34Hey, good news.
17:36There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
17:40If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:44That's enough.
17:44You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
17:53You never belonged in this world.
17:55Look at her.
17:57A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
18:00That dress.
18:02It's a cheap knockoff.
18:06Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
18:09It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:13What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:19Remove that dress.
18:21We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:25Hey, stop it.
18:26Let go of my mom.
18:28Now let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:32Take your hands off her now.
18:37Vincent.
18:37You're dismissed.
18:52You all right?
18:56You all right?
18:58I'm fine.
18:58Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
19:00The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
19:04What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:08That knockoff that you're so here to trash her for?
19:13It's Chauvin.
19:16Mote Couture.
19:17Winter Collection.
19:19Not even released yet.
19:21Price tag?
19:22$300,000.
19:24Wow!
19:26You gave her that.
19:27That's right.
19:28I did.
19:31I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:35Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
19:37Victoria's bagged herself a sugar daddy.
19:41Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
19:43He's her walking trust fund.
19:44Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
19:50It's just so predictably desperate.
19:56You really don't understand real talent, do you?
20:01For those of you who don't know me,
20:03I'm Vincent Chevalier.
20:06CEO of Jeven.
20:09And yes,
20:10I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:14I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:19Your brilliance.
20:20Your principles.
20:22Your passion.
20:24Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:28Mom, did you know about this?
20:31Now I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:34But in the meantime, what I will do
20:36is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:41She won't let you down, boss.
20:43You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
20:49She's nothing but a has-been.
20:52The show is about to start.
20:54Your seats are waiting.
21:00Holy shit.
21:02The industry golden boy and the creative powerhouse together?
21:05Talk about a power couple.
21:07I could run the entire industry.
21:10This isn't over, bitch.
21:12Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
21:24So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
21:27Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:36Some people, too.
21:41Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
21:44I have an important announcement.
21:45This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:50She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:53It's true.
21:56She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:59I've slaved away on those designs, day and night.
22:05And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:08That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:15Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:19That's enough, Holly.
22:22Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:26Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:31Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:35That's her real design strategy.
22:37Stop it, Holly.
22:38You're embarrassing yourself.
22:40And those kids she's so proud of?
22:42Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:45How dare you!
22:49Miss Jenkins.
22:51Listen, Michaels.
22:52It's a disaster in there.
22:54There's something wrong with the collection.
22:55It's the fabric.
22:57Not now.
23:03Primary fabrics are disintegrating under the light.
23:06The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:09We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:12Is this some kind of sick joke, Maisamovale?
23:14Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
23:17This is completely unprofessional.
23:19I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:23This is breach of contract.
23:24It's actually fixable.
23:31You can't seriously be thinking about helping you back-stabbing vultures.
23:36Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:39Maisamovale appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:42Sources say the entire collection may be canceled minutes before showtime.
23:46The question on everyone's mind, is this the end for the once-prestigious fashion weeks?
23:55This show doesn't happen.
23:57You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
24:00We're talking billions, Holly.
24:02Billions.
24:03What's this?
24:28Now.
24:29How?
24:31The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials.
24:34I can't magically make new dresses in an hour.
24:38You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:41If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:45That's billions of dollars.
24:48Then you better figure something out.
24:50Because if you don't, not only are you fired,
24:53I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:06Miss Winter.
25:07How do you respond of accusations over design theft?
25:11Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:15Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:18And for the record,
25:20you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:22We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:36Excuse me.
25:38Excuse me.
25:40It's okay, Pum.
25:41I'll be right back.
25:48What do you want, Mia?
25:52Look, I know you're furious.
26:03I would be too.
26:05But think about Miranda and Philippe for a second.
26:08What about them?
26:09Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:12If we tank, they're done.
26:14Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:16Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs,
26:20just put this out.
26:22Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:25Yes, absolutely.
26:26And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:29Please, Vic.
26:30Not for me.
26:32For them.
26:33Please, Vic.
26:34I would have expected them to be here in Paris,
26:37you know, for such a make-or-break show.
26:38What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:44They...
26:45They couldn't make it.
26:46Holly cut the travel budget.
26:49Is that right?
26:51Toria,
26:52I know I don't deserve your help.
26:56They do.
26:58Fine.
27:01I'll help you.
27:02But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline.
27:04Not for you.
27:16Oh, my God.
27:18It's Victoria Winter.
27:20The nuclear beck.
27:21I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:23Now.
27:24I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:33Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:35Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:41Can this work?
27:48Vincent,
27:49how did you...
27:51I figured you might need some supplies.
27:54So,
27:54I had my assistant bring over Joven as an emergency kit.
28:00This is perfect,
28:01but
28:01Joven and Maison Laveau are competitors.
28:04Why would you help them?
28:07I'm not helping them.
28:10I'm helping you.
28:13I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:16I have a design I've been saving.
28:18Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:21It's yours now.
28:22I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:27Then what do you want?
28:29You.
28:32What?
28:33You're a talent.
28:38You're a vision.
28:40Come and work.
28:42As you're in.
28:43I'm in.
28:45I'll work for you.
28:46Just like that?
28:48Just like that.
28:49Now,
28:50let me finish my final job for Maison Laveau.
28:53I hate it when I'm calling you.
29:00I wish I was cool.
29:02Like the new girl at school.
29:05I regret it.
29:06So I'ma get,
29:07I'ma get,
29:07I'ma get,
29:08I'ma get.
29:09I want me back.
29:12Don't ever take you.
29:14I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:20She's doing it in minutes.
29:22What would have taken us hours?
29:24Whoa.
29:25No 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 replace making me look like an amateur.
29:35Five minutes till showtime.
29:41You made it.
29:55Well?
29:56Do we pull the plug or not?
29:57We're good.
29:58Everything's back on track.
30:00See?
30:02I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:04You've got twice your talent.
30:07Yeah.
30:08Right.
30:09This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:12You fix this,
30:13it's not make them.
30:20To Victoria.
30:23The real hero of the night.
30:24Mom, you're insane.
30:37I 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.
30:50Well, well, still hanging around.
30:57I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
31:00Fraud.
31:01Pauline,
31:03why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:06What are you talking about?
31:08Just ask the models.
31:09Any of them.
31:12Oh, and Mia.
31:14Don't forget about our agreement.
31:16About Miranda and Pauline.
31:17I won't.
31:18Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
31:32Speaking of new beginnings,
31:35Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:39I want to help.
31:41With her education.
31:43What?
31:44Vincent, that's too much.
31:46We barely know each other.
31:47Victoria,
31:49I've known you since we were 17.
31:53I remember
31:54watching you win that regional competition
31:58in that silver dress,
32:00the one you made from scratch.
32:02I saw the way your eyes lit up
32:05when you talked about
32:07changing the fashion world.
32:09You remember that?
32:11I remember everything.
32:12I have followed your career
32:17all these years,
32:19just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:22Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:24We were married.
32:27And then you weren't.
32:29And then you were building your career.
32:31And the timing just
32:33was never right.
32:36Until now.
32:37I have been waiting
32:47for 20 years to do this.
32:50I should probably get this.
33:05Mia?
33:15Mia?
33:18God, I was so right
33:19about firing Victoria.
33:21That Milan disaster you turned around,
33:23absolute magic.
33:25And now I have an opportunity
33:26that can put you on the map for good.
33:29Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo
33:31for the Oscars' red carpet.
33:35Sean Gosling?
33:36The Sean Gosling?
33:38The very one.
33:39Three-time Oscar winner,
33:41People's Sexiest Man Alive.
33:43And if you play our cards right,
33:44the next face,
33:45the Maison Levois hands where.
33:47They're taking pitches now.
33:50If he picks yours,
33:51this changes everything.
33:52For you,
33:53for the brand.
33:55Where it is,
33:56Joven's in the running too.
33:58Land this,
33:59Vincent is for Victoria.
34:01They're done.
34:05Seal the deal?
34:06I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:08I've got this, Holly.
34:10You won't regret it.
34:18God, what am I gonna do?
34:20I can't design menswear.
34:22I barely pulled off the woman's
34:24with Victoria's help.
34:26Miranda and Paulina are gone too.
34:28I'm completely on my own.
34:29And if Holly bought that
34:33I saved Milan
34:34and fixed Paris
34:35when it was
34:35all Victoria,
34:38maybe I can squeeze
34:39one more miracle over her.
34:41thanks for meeting me.
34:46I know things are complicated between us.
34:49You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
34:51Cut to the chase.
34:52We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax.
34:54Miranda and Pauline are also...
34:54Miranda's excellent with menswear.
34:56She can handle this without me.
34:56Please, wait.
34:57There's more to it.
34:58After Paris, Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:03Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:05I've been fighting for them, but...
35:06Are you serious?
35:07Holly's due any day now.
35:08Trust me.
35:09I know.
35:10This project is our only shot.
35:11If we land it, I can convince Pauline.
35:12I'm going to go to the chase.
35:13We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax.
35:14Miranda and Pauline are also...
35:15Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:17She can handle this without me.
35:18Please, wait.
35:19There's more to it.
35:20After Paris, Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:24Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:27I've been fighting for them, but...
35:29Are you serious?
35:30Pauline's due any day now.
35:32Trust me.
35:33I know.
35:34This project is our only shot.
35:35If we land it, I can convince Pauline to keep them both.
35:38Have you worked with Sean before?
35:40No, but I've heard you have.
35:42Ages ago.
35:44I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala.
35:47Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left Maison L'Homme.
35:52Really?
35:53What concept?
35:54Well...
36:13Perfect.
36:14She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:17I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:21Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:23I do.
36:24Actually, I...
36:25I took them with me when I left Maison L'Homme.
36:26Wait.
36:27Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:28How exactly is she part of this project?
36:29Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's letting her work from home.
36:30Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:31Of course, Vic.
36:32Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:39Take all the time you need.
36:40Mia.
36:41Don't make me regret trusting you.
36:42Again.
36:43I can't.
36:44I can't.
36:45I can't.
36:46I can't.
36:47Pulle.
36:48I can't.
36:49Colleen and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:55You just need to be.
36:57Take all the time you need.
36:59Mia, don't make me regret trusting you.
37:03Again.
37:20Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:24Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:28The Sean Gosselin one with the black satin lapels?
37:31That's the one.
37:32Can you check my home office?
37:33It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:38Got it.
37:39Grace is napping.
37:40The perfect timing.
37:41Thanks, sweetie.
37:42I just need to double check something about the...
37:48Shoulder.
37:49Instruction.
37:52Mom, are you okay?
37:57Miranda?
37:59Vic?
38:04Mom, Mom, what's going on?
38:07Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:11Miranda, what happened?
38:12Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:15Bills don't feed themselves.
38:17You've met my husband.
38:18Old child with no paycheck and now there's a newborn at home.
38:23Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:28What?
38:30Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:33After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:38No severance, no copper, nothing.
38:40Just gone.
38:41What?
38:42That's completely illegal.
38:43Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some buried performance clause.
38:49All at once.
38:51What are the odds, right?
38:53And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours down here.
38:58Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
39:00And Mia knew about all this.
39:08Mia.
39:10Front row seat when Holly made an announcement.
39:13Didn't even blink.
39:15Too busy admiring her shiny new creative director title.
39:18She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me.
39:23Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:26What?
39:28That bitch!
39:30This ends now.
39:39Damn it!
39:45Miss Michael, he's just arrived from Milan.
39:48We need approval by noon for them.
39:50Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:59What are you 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.
40:15Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:20Well at least she could actually design that.
40:22What the hell is going on here?
40:27What the hell is going on here?
40:29Just a great disagreement. Everything is in control.
40:33The 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.
40:47This is garbage.
40:53Absolute garbage!
40:55I just need a little more time.
40:57We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
41:01If Shofen gets this deal instead of us...
41:06What's that?
41:07It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:17I 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.
41:29Mama.
41:30I still can't believe they're 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.
42:14And that's where we spring the trap.
42:15You're early.
42:29Thick.
42:31I really need that sketch.
42:32I said I'd help. Not hand over my design.
42:43Holly's all over me about this.
42:46If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:50Still lying, Mia. You never learn.
42:54Guess it's payback time.
42:55So.
42:57Do 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.
43:06Beck, my stomach is killing me.
43:08Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:11Fine.
43:13But don't touch anything.
43:14I don't need anything.
43:15No.
43:16I don't know.
43:17I can't take it.
43:18I can't always love it.
43:19I don't know.
43:20No.
43:38Sorry, Mick.
43:39Sorry, Nick. Survival of the fittest.
43:55You just let her take your work?
43:57She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:03You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:06Go after the same clients.
44:08Show them what real design looks like.
44:11We're not out yet.
44:25I heard there's a revolution, bro.
44:32I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:35You're welcome, Mom.
44:38You're welcome, Mom.
44:42I want you and your team as your vent.
44:47Full creative control.
44:50I'm Miranda. Your husband's debt handled.
44:54And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:57Mr. Chevalier, I...
45:01I'm Pauline.
45:02Your sister is in good hands.
45:05The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:07Is already prepping for her next surgery.
45:10Mr. Chevalier!
45:12Thank you!
45:14Don't thank me.
45:15Thank Victoria.
45:16I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:20Vincent, I...
45:22I don't even know what to say.
45:25It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:28It's about time you all get to tell you...
45:30Well, I don't know what you deserve.
45:32I don't know what you deserve.
46:33And you're still here?
46:38Final tweaks. The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:44You've got Grace to sleep.
46:49Yeah.
46:51And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:56Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
46:59We're about to make history.
47:11Maison 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.
47:56I didn't expect to see you here.
47:58I thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
48:02Unlike 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.
48:19And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:22Pregnant woman talk, you know.
48:25Three X and threes are the final CEO.
48:28What's next?
48:28A fake 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.
48:38Sean, 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.
49:09It's good to see you.
49:11Let'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.
50:09After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
50:20Maison Laveau.
50:21what the hell did you put me in?
50:37What the hell did you people put me in? Are you trying to kill me?
50:44Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk. Who designed this tuxedo?
50:49Did you even read the brief?
50:52I mean, you must have read the brief. It's not complicated. It says no synthetic blends.
51:00I mean, it must be some kind of mistake. Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
51:05A mistake? I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:09Victoria, please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your last design.
51:23I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:27I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
51:30And that's why Victoria is the best. She actually pays attention.
51:34After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:38The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:42Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip up.
51:47Nia's design was the front runner all along. That's why they picked her first.
51:52Maybe everyone should see this.
51:57Wait, Nia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:02Wait, Nia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:12That's a new low. Even for you.
52:15Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
52:22So you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design theft.
52:28Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:32We're suspending all collaborations.
52:45Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:47You're blacklisted.
52:54Victoria, please.
53:02I'll do anything. Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
53:15You made your choices, Holly. Now you live with them.
53:19Why did we win too far?
53:29Sean Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Joven.
53:34Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:49To the best comeback in fashion history.
53:52And to the women who made it happen.
53:55And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
54:02Mom, you might want to see this.
54:14Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:19Happy birthday to you.
54:25Guys, look.
54:29Maison Laveau on the brink.
54:31Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:34Ouch.
54:36I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:38Strange, isn't it?
54:39Strange, isn't it?
54:47I gave them everything.
54:49Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:56Now it's all crashing down. I thought I'd feel vindicated.
55:00But honestly, it's a weird mix.
55:03Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
55:06Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
55:11Look at this.
55:13Joven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
55:19Victoria, this is you. You 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.
55:49Victoria Winterer.
55:50Will you marry me?
55:52Will you marry me?
55:53Will you marry me?
55:54Will you marry me?
56:03Yes!
56:05A thousand times yes!
56:07No!
56:08Yes!
56:09Yes!
56:11Whoah!
56:12Whoah!
56:14Best birthday ever!
56:28Amber!
56:45You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:49I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:52When word got out you left.
56:54Clients failed.
56:56The board freaked. Numbers tanked.
56:59I couldn't stop it.
57:02You steered Maison Laveau into this storm, Holly.
57:17I know.
57:19I know.
57:20My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
57:29I destroyed everything.
57:31I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
57:37I didn't mean for it to end like this.
57:39Maison Laveau isn't dead. I bought it. Last week. The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of Gevin now.
57:53You bought it? Why would you do that?
57:55To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
58:01You win, Victoria. I hope you do better than I did.
58:08I'll do it differently.
58:11Goodbye, Holly.
58:13Miss Winter. I just... I wanted to thank you.
58:27Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave. I can keep working and have my baby. You changed everything.
58:47Congratulations. Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:53Ready?
58:55Always.
58:57Always.
59:01Always.
59:03Always.
59:05Always.
59:07Always.
59:09Always.
59:11Always.
59:13Always.
59:15Always.
59:17Always.
59:18Always.
59:19Always.
59:22Always.
59:24Always.
