00:00Celine, we are late to our company's $50 million open house.
00:05Is your makeup really more important?
00:07I'm just trying to look good for you, sweetheart.
00:10Spare me.
00:11Our marriage contract ends this month.
00:14You can stop pretending.
00:23I can call a tow truck.
00:31Okay, see that little grease pit over there?
00:34You're gonna walk over there in your expensive heels and figure it out.
00:41You want my signature on the divorce agreement, right?
00:53Hi.
00:55How fast can you fix my car?
01:00We don't exactly keep those parts laying around.
01:05Maybe my nephew can help us.
01:07Hey, Knox!
01:30What, uh, seems to be the problem on Cory?
01:47She's sitting right out there in that broke-down Mercedes.
01:50Look, I know you've probably never seen a car that nice.
01:54It might be worth even more than this shop.
02:00Well, she lacks a lot of attention.
02:04Are you talking about me? Or the car?
02:07The engine.
02:08The engine.
02:11So you know how to fix it.
02:13Well, that depends.
02:17On what?
02:19If you ask us nicely.
02:25All right.
02:26Please, can you help?
02:29Please, can you help?
02:34Somebody made you walk all the way down here in them heels.
02:36What, you had me waiting so long for some shop boy?
02:52You waited this long just to throw some shade?
02:54Pop the hood.
02:58Pop the hood.
02:59Wait, the hood?
03:03Toss me the damn keys.
03:25She's worth more than your bloodline.
03:28So how long is this gonna take?
03:30Just a couple minutes.
03:33More if you keep talking.
03:35So you got a name?
03:37Knox.
03:39Sure you're not trying to profit off the name of the failed Knoxwood Empire?
03:42Knoxwood Empire.
03:53Start it.
03:54Oh my gosh, thank you.
04:12How much do we owe you?
04:14Nothing.
04:16Just the chance to work on one of these is enough.
04:21Jackson.
04:25Oh, um.
04:33Selene.
04:37And if it's still late.
04:39Let's get the fuck out of here, all right?
04:49That's gotta be the snobbiest couple we've ever had.
04:54Yeah.
04:55Good thing we don't live that billionaire lifestyle no more.
05:04Victor, you've outdone yourself. This listing is magnificent.
05:08Oh well, I couldn't have done it without my queen.
05:12To the woman who made this all so effortless.
05:16Honey, you shouldn't have.
05:21You have motor oil on your shoes.
05:26Is that why you took so long in the shop?
05:30On their knees begging for a discount.
05:31Maybe my next wife will be more deserving of that necklace.
05:44I tried so hard to make this marriage work.
05:45My family got what it needed from yours.
05:46You?
05:47You're just a receipt.
05:48You?
05:49You're just a receipt.
05:51You're just a receipt.
05:56You're just a receipt.
05:57You're just a receipt.
05:58You're just a receipt.
06:03You're just a receipt.

09:15go ahead and hang out wherever you like
09:17go ahead and hang out where you like
09:42When I said hang wherever you like, the back office wasn't included.
10:10Sorry, I didn't know.
10:12I didn't know.
10:42I didn't know.
11:12Team 5.
11:31Is he always that quiet?
11:35Only when he likes him.
11:38How long has he worked here for?
11:40Long enough to forget who he once was.
11:44Who was he?
11:46Knox would.
11:48Shit, Jake.
11:51Come on.
11:52It hurts, man.
11:54Let's go. I'll drive you.
11:58Shop's closed.
12:01Sweet little Elvis almost fainted.
12:05Me too.
12:10Mrs. Beaumont. Always nice to see you.
12:15Long morning.
12:17Not just catching up on a few details.
12:20I hate to point it out, but it looks like the catching up got a little bit messy.
12:26She's always been a little, uh, hands-on.
12:32Isn't that right, sweetheart?
12:34We like to be thorough.
12:36Shall we?
12:37Mm-hmm.
12:38You show up late, covered in filth, make me look small in front of her?
12:50Victor, I was working.
12:52Clearly not hard enough to get my signature on the divorce agreement.
12:55I already earned my freedom from you, Victor.
12:56And every cent of what you owe me.
12:59You know what?
12:59You'll work as my assistant.
13:02It's an apology to me.
13:04Get my dry cleaning, finish the contracts.
13:06That's if you still want my signature.
13:10Mm-hmm.
13:12Well, she's still in one piece.
13:38And your friend from today?
13:39Stubborn as hell.
13:42He'll survive.
13:47You doing okay?
13:49Just had a long day.
13:52Seems you've been having quite a few of those in a row.
13:56Do you always carry it this well?
13:59You get used to it.
14:00Well, you know, I'll try not to break this one, all right?
14:18New promises.
14:20Well, I guess I'll be seeing you again.
14:22What are you doing?
14:42I'm laying out like some trophy and not doing the work I gave you.
14:46I finished it three hours ago.
14:47It's on your desk.
14:48Well, then, get my dry cleaning for tonight.
14:51I've got a date with a Winston heiress.
14:54That wasn't on your calendar?
14:56Well, that's not business.
14:57It's pleasure.
14:58Their family owns half the city, and it would do well for the Beaumont name if I marry her next.
15:05You're already courting your next wife.
15:08Why not just end our contract if that's the case?
15:10Because legally, you're still mine.
15:14I was hoping you would see me, Victor.
15:17Not just as your name.
15:18Not just for our deal.
15:22That must be our little shop boy.
15:25Ready to tune up the Mercedes for tonight's impression.
15:35Ha, ha, ha.
15:37There he is.
15:38All right, and you will bring it back here tonight, yeah?
15:49You got plans with it?
15:51Dinner with a beautiful woman.
15:54Taking the missus out.
15:56Please.
15:57A real woman.
15:59One worthy of my company.
16:02You would disrespect a good woman like that.
16:05What'd you say?
16:06I said, you need to treat Selene with more respect.
16:19Women like that aren't loved.
16:23They're leased.
16:26Focus on the car.
16:28Not my wife.
16:29God damn it!
16:43The Winstons are bringing another suitor to dinner after everything I laid out for them.
16:47I guess she found out who she was being sold off to.
16:49What, you're still clinging on to your payout from our marriage contract?
16:55I earned it, Victor.
16:56Every cent.
16:58I gave up my life to buy time for my father.
17:00You knew that when you offered me this arrangement.
17:03You will get your shares when I say that's what we agreed on.
17:07I signed up to save my father's life.
17:10And because I thought maybe I could build something real in the process.
17:15And now he's dead.
17:18And you will never find love.
17:24Where the hell is Knox with my car?
17:28Go get it.
17:30If it's not out in my driveway in ten minutes, you'll never see that payout that you earned.
17:35I didn't think I'd be back here again.
18:05I didn't think you'd come here alone.
18:15I figured you could use a break from all the noise.
18:33Do you work on all your client's cars?
18:35Furtless.
18:39Maybe just the one showing up here in heels and lipstick.
18:49You're not here for the car.
18:56What if I am?
18:57I'd be disappointed.
19:02I'd be disappointed.
19:02I'll see you in.
19:02I'll see you in.
19:03I'll see you in.
19:08If I am.
19:10I'll see you in.
23:12We'll just have to earn it back.
24:15Happy?
24:16Yeah.
24:17Like running right.
24:19But you don't even have to look.
24:21You just know.
24:23Well, it's got a certain rhythm to it.
24:30You know, the way it breathes.
24:34You just feel it.
24:35You just feel it.
24:46You ever felt anything like that?
24:47Something like that.
24:48Go upstairs.
24:57Go upstairs.
24:58Why?
25:00Why?
25:01Why?
25:02Because that's where I'm going to show you.
25:07I'm going to show you.
25:08I'm going to show you.
25:10I'm going to show you.
25:12I'm going to show you.
25:13And then you go.
25:14So, you know, I got to show you.
25:28Tell me.
25:29so if you're if you're nervous I mean you don't have to
25:50no way I don't want you to stop
25:59does he ever touch you like this
26:29I'll lie back
26:59Oh, my God.
27:29Yes, Jeffrey. I know. It's all part of our agreement.
27:59I know.
28:29Bitch, shut the fuck up.
28:37What?
28:38Sorry, Jeffrey. It's nothing. I'll call you back.
28:50Look into Jackson Knox.
28:51I don't think I know his full story.
29:01Oops.
29:02Missed a spot.
29:04Here?
29:04I like having you around the shop.
29:32So you're hiring.
29:37I mean, you look like the boss to me.
29:40Maybe I'll start giving out orders.
29:43Merci.
29:43Merci.
29:43All right.
29:48Bye.
29:50I don't know.
30:20I don't know.
30:50I don't know.
30:57Good morning, darling.
30:59You're up early.
31:00Hey, you know what I was thinking?
31:02You know the North Valley redevelopment, right?
31:05Well, the land under Knox Auto.
31:08Thinking of adding that to the acquisition list.
31:10I'll make sure that's noted.
31:14Hey, let's have dinner tonight.
31:16Just us.
31:18Let me cook for you.
31:19That's the least I can do for such a good wife.
31:22So, your husband wants to buy this dump?
31:41He thinks it's charming.
31:43That usually means demolition is next.
31:46He sure has got a nasty habit of trying to own things he shouldn't.
31:50I was one of them.
31:51Just another piece of the Beaumont collection.
31:57Beaumont?
31:57It's not a name I'm trying to keep.
32:12So, you're telling me your last name is Beaumont?
32:14Why does that matter?
32:21Victor Beaumont.
32:24Yes.
32:26His father built their company.
32:28No.
32:30He took it.
32:31From mine.
32:32That family didn't acquire us.
32:45They gutted us.
32:48And then they buried the story.
32:50So, Knoxwood is your real name?
32:52It was.
32:53Before everything was stolen.
32:55Mavali tried to do business with them.
32:58But they set him up.
32:59Stole his patents.
33:03All our assets.
33:06And my father, he...
33:08He couldn't live.
33:11With the shame.
33:14I'm so sorry, Jackson.
33:22I'm done.
33:24Hiding in this garage.
33:26We're taking things back.
33:28And I'm going to protect you.
33:31I have to go back tonight.
33:33If I don't, he'll get suspicious of us.
33:36Then be careful.
33:39To leave.
33:49There she is.
33:50Perfect timing.
33:52So, you did cook.
33:54Of course.
33:55You deserve to be spoiled.
33:58Go on.
33:59Sit.
34:05So.
34:07How was your day?
34:09I just ran some errands.
34:13Like what I've done with the place?
34:15What?
34:16Look around.
34:17You've worked up quite the appetite.
34:27Eat.
34:31You had someone follow me?
34:33You're sick.
34:35I had to keep tabs on our little shop boy.
34:38Just didn't expect to see him with my wife.
34:40You never wanted me as your wife.
34:42You just wanted something to own.
34:44I tried.
34:45I tried my hardest with you.
34:46You pushed me away.
34:48You know what?
34:49I'm done pushing.
34:51Contract's over.
34:52What are you talking about?
34:53Let my lawyer tear it up.
34:55No more divorce.
34:57No more payouts.
34:59Just marriage.
35:01Till death do us part, darling.
35:03After everything I gave you.
35:04Everything I sacrificed.
35:06You can't do this.
35:08You're evil.
35:10Look at this.
35:13$12,000 a bottle.
35:16Same year Jackson's father died.
35:21I think...
35:23we should toast to his legacy.
35:28Cheers, darling.
35:32Oh, my God!
35:33Victor!
35:37Victor!
35:49What did he do to you?
35:56He told me I was his forever.
35:59Come on.
36:11Sorry if my clothes are a little big on you.
36:15Finally looks like I work at the shop.
36:19I told you.
36:20You look like the boss.
36:23It doesn't really feel like that after what happened tonight.
36:26It's me.
36:40It's me.
36:40Nobody.
36:42It's gonna hurt you like that again.
36:47I'll make sure of it.
36:51I care about you.
36:53It's me.
36:56I want you in my life.
36:58I want you in my life.
36:58I want you in my life.
37:26I want you in my life.
37:28I want you in my life.
37:29I want you in my life.
37:30I want you in my life.
37:31I want you in my life.
37:32I want you in my life.
37:33I want you in my life.
37:34I want you in my life.
37:35I want you in my life.
37:36I want you in my life.
37:37I want you in my life.
37:38I want you in my life.
37:39I want you in my life.
37:40I want you in my life.
37:41I want you in my life.
37:42I want you in my life.
37:43I want you in my life.
37:44I want you in my life.
37:45I want you in my life.
37:46I want you in my life.
37:47I want you in my life.
37:48I want you in my life.
37:49I want you in my life.
37:50I want you in my life.
38:21Good morning, I'd like to talk to the owner.
38:51He wants a scene.
38:54It's a power game.
38:56Then let him see who he's playing with.
38:59Wow.
39:00Your place is really running on fumes, Raymond.
39:04Are you looking for a mechanic or just to rattle some cages?
39:08Depends who's in the cage.
39:10Something I can help you with?
39:14Knox.
39:14Knox.
39:16Wow, I thought I'd have to send a tow truck to come get you.
39:20Nah.
39:21We don't break down as easy as your cars.
39:25Tough talk for the man whose roof I'm about to own.
39:29So what's all this chest-puffing bravado really about, huh?
39:33I think you know.
39:34Oh, yeah?
39:36What do you tell me?
39:43You abused her.
39:46Wow.
39:47Jackson, Knoxwood.
39:49All grown up.
39:50Daddy's lost boy.
39:52Here to save the town slut.
39:53I could snap your frame in half.
39:59No lift.
40:00No tools.
40:02Just me.
40:06I'm going to turn this shithole into a parking lot.
40:09And I'm going to finish what my father started.
40:13You ain't built for this, right?
40:15Fuck this.
40:28Jackson, I don't feel so good.
40:32Uncle Ray?
40:33Uncle Ray.
40:38Is he okay?
40:40Uncle Ray, hey, hey, hey, stay with me.
40:42You always were dramatic, boy.
40:47Don't scare me like that, old man.
40:49Come on.
40:50Raymond, you should really rest.
40:53It's not my heart.
40:56It's a shock.
40:58This place is the last piece of our name.
41:01That bastard's going to wipe it out of existence.
41:04No.
41:05You won't.
41:07We fight for our name.
41:10It's what they took from us.
41:12And for her.
41:18She's not his to own.
41:22Let's take the Beaumont Empire down.
41:23Tonight matters.
41:38The mayor's here.
41:39Investors.
41:40Our future are together.
41:42I know.
41:43Then pretend like you still love me.
41:45Be proud to wear your name.
41:47Tonight, you'll get the perfect show.
41:48And tonight, we are happy to announce the Beaumont Holdings' newest acquisition.
41:56The North Valley Corridor.
41:59None of which could have been done without the help of my darling wife, Celine.
42:03Thank you, baby, for always standing by my side.
42:08You're right, Victor.
42:10I have stood by your side.
42:13Through the lies, humiliation, and the threats.
42:17But I'm done performing.
42:18If legacy is what matters to you, then tonight, let's rewrite one.
42:24Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to Jackson Knoxwood, the lost heir to the Knoxwood Empire.
42:31The Beaumont family tried to bury my name.
42:59I ain't here to beg for your respect.
43:04I'm here to reclaim what was stolen.
43:09What?
43:10This is pathetic.
43:11You think you can just put on a suit and everyone's going to believe you?
43:14I don't need them to believe me.
43:17I just need them to remember me.
43:20And they will.
43:26You are beneath me.
43:28You don't belong in this room.
43:30You're nothing but a filthy rat.
43:50Jackson, is it true?
43:51Will you be reviving Knoxwood Industries?
43:53We're just getting started.
44:12This wasn't a merger.
44:14It was a robbery.
44:16Reading a bedtime story.
44:17That's my favorite chapter.
44:21It's all here.
44:23Your family stole everything.
44:28Get out of my house.
44:30What's this?
44:56Jacks, Dick, you're reading this.
45:20It means I wasn't strong enough to win back what they stole.
45:26But maybe you can be.
45:29I wish I could see the man you've become.
45:33I know you still have your mother's heart.
45:37Just remember one thing for me.
45:40You're at Knoxwood.
45:42You're the last one left.
45:45But maybe that makes you the strongest of us all.
45:50We love you, kid.
45:52Everett.
45:55You left me a goodbye.
46:00When I wasn't even old enough to understand it.
46:02He built Knoxwood from nothing.
46:11When he partnered with the Beaumonts.
46:13They didn't just steal his patents.
46:17They stole the life from him.
46:19I remember coming home from school.
46:22They said he had a stroke.
46:23But he left a note
46:27next to a design
46:30on his desk.
46:34And
46:34he said
46:36he said he can't
46:43watch his legacy die
46:45while he still had breath in him.
46:48Jax, he built something lasting.
46:52And you
46:53already doing what he asked.
46:57Even if you didn't see it until now.
46:59I hated myself.
47:03For not living up to his legacy.
47:06Not knowing his pain.
47:09And I've been
47:10hiding here in this garage
47:12like he saw all I was good for.
47:14You're not hiding.
47:16You're healing.
47:18And fighting back.
47:20I'm making sure
47:21they don't bury another name
47:23again.
47:26Not mine.
47:28Not yours.
47:40We'll talk on the record.
47:41Everything.
47:42We have everything
47:43that we need
47:44to expose him.
47:47I'll send the documents over.
47:52Sounded
47:53serious.
47:54Reporter from the Herald.
47:56She wants to break the story for us.
47:58Laying out
47:58everything Victor has done.
48:01You really don't
48:03scare easy, do you?
48:04I cut the ears.
48:16We have orders from Mr. Beaumont
48:18to gut this place by noon.
48:20This is private property.
48:21Y'all are trespassing.
48:23Not anymore, pretty boy.
48:24Anyone else want a piece of Nox Auto?
48:30No?
48:30Huh?
48:32All right, stop.
48:40All right, stop.
48:42If you touch one more inch of this shop,
48:44I will have you all arrested for criminal trespassing.
48:47Look, we're just following orders, lady.
48:48Well, then you can follow them
48:49back up that hill.
48:51If you want this shop,
48:52you provide the proper document
48:53so that you can acquire it.
48:55Otherwise, get lost.
48:58We'll be back.
49:01Are you hurt?
49:04Not as much as him.
49:05Victor is getting desperate.
49:14Keep him on his heels.
49:23She said she'd be here by five.
49:25I think she got cold feet.
49:29Or got bought.
49:30Look, if she doesn't show,
49:36we go public ourselves.
49:38That's not how this works.
49:40If we move too early,
49:41he'll spin it.
49:42Make us look like nobodies.
49:45We ain't nobodies anymore.
49:46We ain't nobodies anymore.
50:00Hope you weren't waiting
50:12on your little reporter.
50:13She's not coming.
50:15You paid her off.
50:16Well, I simply offered her the truth.
50:19Run the story.
50:20She'll never work again.
50:23Own your little, uh,
50:25defense of the shop.
50:26Who's cute.
50:28But my men won't be held back forever.
50:30You ain't touching the shop, Victor.
50:32No matter how many men
50:34you bring with you.
50:36Darling,
50:37you've had your fun.
50:39Now come home with me.
50:41I'm not yours to own.
50:43Come back with me now,
50:44or I'll bring you back myself.
50:47I ain't gonna threaten her anymore.
50:50I'm just getting started.
50:56We go public.
50:58Tomorrow.
51:00Mr.
51:02Beumont,
51:03are you playing with your husband's
51:05minutes for a crime?
51:06Mr.
51:07Knox,
51:07what truth do you have
51:08of the stolen legacy?
51:12For years,
51:13Victor Beumont
51:14has paraded himself
51:15as a visionary.
51:17But in reality,
51:18he's just a tyrant.
51:20We build his empire
51:21of stolen ground.
51:22Ground that once belonged
51:24to my family.
51:25Now the Knoxwood name
51:26used to mean something.
51:28My father built it
51:29with his hands,
51:30with his mind.
51:33Everything he had
51:34in this folder,
51:37you can see.
51:38schoolk of training.
51:47Oh!
51:48Oh!
51:48GokuOLD
51:48Oh!
51:50Oh!
51:50Oh!
51:55Luke!
51:56open up.
52:01Oh!
52:02Oh!
52:02I just want her home safe, and whoever has her, please, just talk to me, face to face.
52:27I'm waiting.
52:28Well, that was a shitty award speech.
52:35He wants me to go to him.
52:38It's a trap.
52:40So what are you going to do?
52:44Go anyway.
52:46Want to come?
52:48I'm about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.
52:52You know what to do.
52:53What's that?
52:54Give that boy a country ass-whooping.
52:58Finally, some peace.
53:14You were always so loud with your little dreams.
53:18Now you're as quiet as a prayer.
53:20But I do miss the sound of your voice.
53:31Come on, sweetheart.
53:33Say something.
53:34Why the hell are we guarding a dinner party?
53:42Stop complaining.
53:43Boss, there's no one in the room.
53:44Yeah, I'm not on the guest list.
54:07I hate you.
54:08I think it's time you eat.
54:11We have to rebuild trust, right?
54:17Not so fast.
54:20Selene, we were doing so well.
54:22I will never love you.
54:24But you'll never leave me, either.
54:26To us.
54:43Dinner's over.
54:51The mechanic.
54:52Why'd you break in here with a wrench?
54:56Back away from her.
54:58You're too late, Knox.
54:59She chose me.
55:00He's lying.
55:02I know, sonny.
55:03This whole time.
55:04I'm gonna kill this piece of trash.
55:07Like my father killed his.
55:09Jackson, are you okay?
55:30Never better.
55:31Never better.
55:31Now that's the country ass-whooping.
55:50I thought I'd lost you.
55:52You'll never lose me.
55:55We're getting you out of this place.
55:57For good.
55:57For good.
56:01In the stunning aftermath of the Beaumont scandal,
56:15former mogul Victor Beaumont
56:16has been formally charged with conspiracy,
56:19abduction, and corporate fraud.
56:21It would appear that the long-buried
56:22Knoxwood family conspiracy has been exposed.
56:25And the rightful heir, Jackson Knoxwood,
56:27is ready to revitalize the fallen empire.
56:29Well, I'll be.
56:32From oil stains to headlines.
56:38Well, if it isn't the first lady of Knox Auto.
56:43Don't start with me, Ray.
56:44I'm here to work.
56:46That's just what I'm afraid of.
56:48More work.
56:50I've got rebrand consultants
56:51and merger meetings lined up
56:53for Knoxwood Industries.
56:55Where's our CEO?
56:56Where he always is.
56:59So this is where the CEO hides all day.
57:18I wasn't hiding.
57:20I was waiting.
57:22For what?
57:23My favorite distraction.
57:35I can't distract you for too long.
57:38We've got a legacy to rebuild.
57:41And let's rebuild it together.
57:43Right.
57:43I can't distract you for too long.
57:45I've got a legacy to rebuild.
57:46Right after I take you for a ride.
