Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no. The system crashed mid-upload. Not that the collection is the wrong season. Wrong everything.
00:00:20Runway is in 48 hours. If production starts with these butch 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 corruption.
00:00:40Prepare the fast ninja. Right now, one word for me, your industry poison.
00:00:59Enough. Vic!
00:01:03Mia, Japanese indigo. Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7. Pauline, handle those vultures.
00:01:18Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes. 28 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot. 27 now. Tick tock.
00:01:33I'm done. Crisis averted.
00:01:52I swear to god, you're not human. 27 minutes.
00:01:57Holy shit. Pre-orders are flooding in. This will shatter every record.
00:02:01I swear to god, I swear to god.
00:02:07Vy, are you okay?
00:02:10I just practiced some things, nothing to-
00:02:13Oh my god, your water broke.
00:02:18God, your water broke.
00:02:26Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
00:02:31Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
00:02:35Dad called.
00:02:37He 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.
00:02:59Well, 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.
00:03:19Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster, they get immunity.
00:03:26In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
00:03:33No way this Victoria went to where saved the company since she's not even there.
00:03:37Boss, the Milan collection crisis, averted.
00:03:45Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:47Ew, you saved the entire collection?
00:03:49Impressive.
00:03:51Oh, Ashley.
00:03:52How about I make you the new creative director?
00:03:54Starting today.
00:03:55Oh, my God.
00:03:58Is 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...
00:04:12Don't worry about her.
00:04:14I'm not useless, Greg.
00:04:15I'm just going to have fire.
00:04:21You 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 be a Milan runway?
00:04:40Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:43Enough for your full tuition and private school.
00:04:47Mom, you don't have to.
00:04:48You're going to that private school.
00:04:51No discussion.
00:04:53Your 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.
00:05:15After all these years in your shadow, Victoria,
00:05:17I'm finally taking what I deserve.
00:05:32Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
00:05:45What the hell?
00:05:47Listen up, everyone.
00:05:48Victoria Winter is terminated.
00:05:51Affected immediately.
00:05:53You can't just do that.
00:05:56She's in the hospital having her baby.
00:05:58There are laws against this.
00:05:59Vic worked while in labor.
00:06:02She's the creative backbone of Ms. El Naveau.
00:06:06Maternity leave, medical insurance.
00:06:08These preggles are bleeding us dry.
00:06:11Everything okay here?
00:06:16Great timing.
00:06:18Victoria Winter, 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.
00:06:42Well, that's ancient history.
00:06:45The word wants fresh blood.
00:06:48And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
00:06:51I'm the one who...
00:06:57Mia, you...
00:07:01Feel that curve.
00:07:04That's your signature.
00:07:06That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
00:07:12How could you?
00:07:14I taught you everything you know.
00:07:16I wish things were different, Vic.
00:07:27I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:30What happens to my team?
00:07:38Miranda 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, no real protection.
00:08:08But hey, that's corporate America for you.
00:08:11Or we can shift the math.
00:08:13You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
00:08:19Think of it as taking one for the team.
00:08:25Miranda'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.
00:08:33Come on, babe, because they don't care about them.
00:08:40Prove it.
00:08:41You sign, they don't care about them.
00:09:11That's why I served a package after 15 years.
00:09:21That's why I worked to them.
00:09:36Careful.
00:09:38I got you.
00:09:41Vincent?
00:09:45Vincent Chevalier.
00:09:49Hi.
00:09:52High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:09:55So, it's true.
00:10:08Great Victoria Winter's being shown the door after single-handedly saving he saw in LeBeau's Milan collection.
00:10:14How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
00:10:24Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
00:10:29What are you getting at exactly?
00:10:31I'm talking about you and me.
00:10:34I'm talking about you and me.
00:10:37Pardons.
00:10:38You're genius.
00:10:40My money.
00:10:42No corporate BS.
00:10:43There's no one holding me back.
00:10:50I've got a baby to think about now.
00:10:53And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
00:10:59Just saying.
00:11:00Vincent Chevalier, wow.
00:11:06You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
00:11:12Got your spine here?
00:11:13Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here.
00:11:20Soft landing.
00:11:21Triple her salary.
00:11:23Corner office.
00:11:25You know.
00:11:26Before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
00:11:29Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
00:11:31Rescuing the washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
00:11:36It'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?
00:11:47The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
00:11:50If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:57Shit, shit, shit.
00:11:59What are you talking about?
00:12:00Victoria designed all of this.
00:12:02Actually, those were my designs.
00:12:13What did you just say?
00:12:15The spring collection.
00:12:17The Cartier pieces.
00:12:19I designed them.
00:12:21Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
00:12:24Oops.
00:12:25Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
00:12:27I thought you were better than this, Mia.
00:12:33They explained my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:43So what?
00:12:44Sketches get past her and all the time.
00:12:45It doesn't prove squat.
00:12:47Maybe she was your little, what do they call it?
00:12:50First designer.
00:12:51And the logo?
00:12:53The EW, woven in, Victoria's signature mark.
00:13:00It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:13:04Mommy, explain it.
00:13:05Make me shut up.
00:13:10It's funny.
00:13:11All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's the museum have.
00:13:16They all have the EW and GW so they're too.
00:13:19Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
00:13:23Her newborn is Grace Winter.
00:13:27It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
00:13:32Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
00:13:36Well, Mia, tell them.
00:13:38Tell them you designed this.
00:13:40Tell them you saved Milan.
00:13:41The logo, it's, it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:49You lying little bitch.
00:13:52Dr. Ocean is saving the company.
00:13:58Look at the logo again.
00:14:01It's not EW or GW.
00:14:04It's actually two M's, M-M, for McMichael, my last name.
00:14:14See?
00:14:15One M flipped, one upright.
00:14:18It's not for Grace or Emily.
00:14:21It's mine.
00:14:23That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:27Oh my god, she's right.
00:14:28It does look more like two M's.
00:14:32You met me, you met me.
00:14:33Pinch, you really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:38You learned well, Mia.
00:14:41Maybe too well.
00:14:43You'll regret this.
00:14:46I'm not, Vincent.
00:14:48We don't have to sink to that level.
00:14:50Okay.
00:14:52I love you, I'll be driving home, Karen.
00:14:54Bye for hours outside.
00:14:56I got this, you shouldn't be carrying it.
00:14:58Okay.
00:15:03Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:15:07Just take care of the matter of Paulie, Mia.
00:15:10That's right, get the hell out of my company.
00:15:16Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
00:15:24Paul and Victoria.
00:15:28VIP invitation, Paris Fashion Week.
00:15:30Front row.
00:15:32I think you'll find it.
00:15:34Lightning.
00:15:35Every pregnant woman fired.
00:15:46All of us.
00:15:48Just like that.
00:15:49No severance.
00:15:51No warning.
00:15:52Nothing.
00:15:53But a box and a security escort.
00:15:55Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
00:16:04For termination people work back.
00:16:06You paid for your sign and bonus made right in star.
00:16:10Now, about Paris Fashion Week.
00:16:12Your designs are eerily weighted.
00:16:17You should have kept your legs closed.
00:16:19Oh my god, mom.
00:16:30This is insane.
00:16:32I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:34Victoria Wintour.
00:16:35It's a nuclear vehicle.
00:16:37Your mom's basically a legend.
00:16:38You know that, right?
00:16:41We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Levo.
00:16:44Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:47Wait, Maison Levo?
00:16:53Well, well.
00:16:54The Queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
00:16:58Brave of you to show up here.
00:17:00What's next?
00:17:00Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
00:17:05Leaving so soon.
00:17:06You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:17:10Mommy, dear.
00:17:11I spilled you in on a good little career update
00:17:12about getting canned for not cutting it anymore.
00:17:15I don't know.
00:17:17Mom, is that true?
00:17:22Don't worry.
00:17:24She'll explain once she figures out
00:17:25how to keep paying your tuition bills.
00:17:27Ladies and gentlemen,
00:17:29Victoria Wintour.
00:17:30Still pretending she matters.
00:17:36My mom is one of the most talented designers
00:17:38in this entire room.
00:17:40If Maison Levo was putting people like you
00:17:42in charge of the business,
00:17:44then maybe deserves to crash and burn.
00:17:47Well, look at that.
00:17:48It seems entitlement runs in the family.
00:17:51Say whatever you want about me,
00:17:53but leave my daughter out of it.
00:17:55That's got a sting, huh?
00:17:57Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid
00:17:59who worships you like some kind of hero.
00:18:00Hey, good news.
00:18:03There's a factory down the street
00:18:05that's always looking for hard-working children.
00:18:08If paying the bills is getting tough,
00:18:09maybe send her over there.
00:18:11That's enough.
00:18:16That's enough.
00:18:18You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
00:18:21You never belonged in this world.
00:18:23Look at her.
00:18:24A jobless, single mom
00:18:26still pretending she can afford couture.
00:18:29That dress...
00:18:30It's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:34Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week,
00:18:37it's not just pathetic.
00:18:38It's insulting to everyone here
00:18:40who actually deserves to be here.
00:18:44What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:18:47Remove that dress.
00:18:50We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
00:18:54Hey, stop it!
00:18:55Let go of my mom!
00:18:57Now let's see what garbage
00:18:59is really hiding under that dress.
00:19:01Take your hands off for now.
00:19:06You're dismissed.
00:19:21You all right?
00:19:24Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
00:19:31The reclusive billionaire
00:19:32who never shows up anywhere?
00:19:34What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
00:19:38That knockoff
00:19:39that you're so here to trash her for?
00:19:43It's Chevenne.
00:19:46But Couture, winter collection.
00:19:48Not even released yet.
00:19:51Price tag?
00:19:53$300,000.
00:19:55Wow!
00:19:56You gave her that.
00:19:58That's right.
00:19:59You did.
00:20:02I would give her the entire damn collection
00:20:04if you wanted.
00:20:05Oh my god, everyone.
00:20:07Mystery solved.
00:20:08Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy.
00:20:10Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
00:20:14He's her walking trust fund.
00:20:18Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
00:20:21It's just so predictably desperate.
00:20:23You really don't understand real talent, do you?
00:20:30For those of you who don't know me,
00:20:35I'm Vincent Chevalier,
00:20:37CEO of Chevenne.
00:20:40And yes,
00:20:41I have been in love with Victoria Winter
00:20:44since high school.
00:20:46I have followed your career
00:20:48from a distance for years.
00:20:50Your brilliance,
00:20:51your principles,
00:20:53your passion.
00:20:56Victoria,
00:20:57there is no one else like you
00:20:58in this entire industry.
00:21:00Tom,
00:21:00did you know about this?
00:21:03Now,
00:21:03I'm not going to pursue anything
00:21:04until she's ready.
00:21:06But in the meantime,
00:21:08what I will do
00:21:08is ensure that her incredible talent
00:21:11has the platform
00:21:12that it deserves.
00:21:14She won't let you down, boss.
00:21:15You're making a complete ass
00:21:20of yourself, Chevalier.
00:21:21She's nothing but a has-been.
00:21:24The show is about to start.
00:21:27Your seats are waiting.
00:21:33Holy shit.
00:21:35The industry golden boy
00:21:36and the creative powerhouse
00:21:37together?
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
00:21:46what I've prepared for.
00:21:57Did you seriously
00:21:58get in love
00:21:59with my mom
00:21:59since high school?
00:22:04Some talents
00:22:05you recognize immediately.
00:22:09Some people do.
00:22:15Ladies and gentlemen,
00:22:16before we kick off
00:22:17tonight's show,
00:22:18I have an important announcement.
00:22:20This woman is nothing
00:22:22but a fraud and a thief.
00:22:24She's been stealing designs
00:22:25from my creative director
00:22:26for years.
00:22:29It's true.
00:22:30She took my work
00:22:31and passed it off
00:22:32as her own.
00:22:33I slaved away
00:22:35on those designs
00:22:36day and night.
00:22:38And Victoria
00:22:40had the nerve
00:22:41to pass them off
00:22:42as her own.
00:22:47That's just the tip
00:22:48of the iceberg,
00:22:48isn't it, Victoria?
00:22:50Your entire career
00:22:51is based on lies
00:22:52and manipulation.
00:22:54That's enough, Holly.
00:22:57Everyone thinks
00:22:58you're this creative genius,
00:22:59but I know
00:23:00what you really are.
00:23:01Your personal life
00:23:02is just as fake
00:23:03as the so-called talent.
00:23:06Did you know
00:23:06she slept with
00:23:07half the executives
00:23:08in the industry?
00:23:10That's her real
00:23:11design strategy.
00:23:12Stop it, Holly.
00:23:13You're embarrassing yourself.
00:23:15And those kids
00:23:16she's so proud of,
00:23:17who knows
00:23:17who their real products are?
00:23:21How dare you!
00:23:25Listen, please.
00:23:26Listen, my listen.
00:23:27It's a disaster in there.
00:23:29There's something wrong
00:23:30with the collection.
00:23:31It's the fabric.
00:23:31What now?
00:23:39Primary fabrics
00:23:40are disintegrating
00:23:41under the lights.
00:23:42The dresses
00:23:43are literally
00:23:44falling apart.
00:23:45We've only got
00:23:4650 minutes left
00:23:47until showtime.
00:23:48Is this some kind
00:23:49of sick joke,
00:23:50Maison Leval?
00:23:50Are you canceling
00:23:51the show
00:23:51because of your incompetence?
00:23:53This is completely
00:23:54unprofessional.
00:23:56I have 10 million
00:23:57invested in this collection.
00:23:59This is breach of contract.
00:24:01It's actually fixable.
00:24:07You can't seriously
00:24:09be thinking about

00:38:30It should be in the portfolio March Men's Formal 2025.
00:38:35Got it, Grace is napping.
00:38:37The perfect timing.
00:38:38Thanks, sweetie.
00:38:39I just need to double check something about that.
00:38:45Shoulder destruction.
00:38:48Mom, are you okay?
00:38:54Miranda?
00:38:56Rick?
00:38:57Mom!
00:38:58Mom!
00:39:02What's going on?
00:39:04Emily, I'll call you right back.
00:39:08Brenda, what happened?
00:39:09Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
00:39:11Girls don't think themselves.
00:39:14You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
00:39:21Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
00:39:25What?
00:39:27Is that the story she's spinning now?
00:39:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
00:39:35No silver variants, no copper and nothing.
00:39:38Just gone.
00:39:40That's completely illegal.
00:39:42Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
00:39:47All at once.
00:39:48All at once.
00:39:49What are the odds, right?
00:39:51And Polly, working night shifts at 24 hours down here.
00:39:56Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
00:40:05And Mia knew about all this.
00:40:07Mia.
00:40:09Front row seat when Holly made an announcement.
00:40:12Didn't even blink.
00:40:14Too busy admiring her shiny new creative director title.
00:40:18She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
00:40:22Telling me her draw depended on me helping her.
00:40:25What?
00:40:27That bitch!
00:40:31This ends now.
00:40:38Damn it!
00:40:43My name is Michael.
00:40:45Let's just arrive from Milan.
00:40:47We need approval by name for that.
00:40:49Can't you see I'm working on something important?
00:41:01What are you all looking at?
00:41:02Get back to work!
00:41:04Victoria would never trace.
00:41:05I heard that.
00:41:09You think Victoria is so perfect?
00:41:12Then where is she now?
00:41:14Gone.
00:41:16Now I'm in charge.
00:41:17And if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
00:41:20Well at least you've got a key designer.
00:41:27What the hell is going on here?
00:41:29Just a creative disagreement.
00:41:32Everything's under control.
00:41:33It's the Gosling bitch.
00:41:34Tell me you have something presentable.
00:41:39Of course.
00:41:40I'm just finalizing city details.
00:41:42Show me.
00:41:44It's not quite ready.
00:41:45Now.
00:41:51This is garbage.
00:41:54Absolute garbage!
00:41:56I just need a little more time.
00:41:57We don't have more time.
00:41:58This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
00:42:01The two men get this deal instead of us.
00:42:04What's that?
00:42:06What's that?
00:42:13It's just some inspiration.
00:42:14I recorded for the design.
00:42:17I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:42:21Get me when you design me till morning.
00:42:24Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:42:25I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:26I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:43Right on cue.
00:42:44Meet that sketch ASAP.
00:42:45Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:42:46The absolute nerve of this woman.
00:42:47She'll get her sketch.
00:42:48And that's where we're spending it.
00:42:49I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:50I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:51I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
00:42:59Right 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.
00:43:14She'll get her sketch.
00:43:15And that's where we're spending the trash.
00:43:18Right.
00:43:30You're early.
00:43:32Bec.
00:43:33I really need that sketch.
00:43:43I said I'd help.
00:43:44Not hand over my design.
00:43:46Holly's all over me about this.
00:43:49If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:43:54Still lying Mia.
00:43:56You never learn.
00:43:57Guess it's payback time.
00:43:59So.
00:44:01Do you want my help or not?
00:44:03I can walk you through it.
00:44:04Your design could be just as good.
00:44:06She's such a snake.
00:44:07Nick.
00:44:09Nick, my stomach is killing me.
00:44:12Can you run to the pharmacy and get something please?
00:44:15Fine.
00:44:17Don't touch anything.
00:44:18You...
00:44:19You...
00:44:20You...
00:44:21You...
00:44:22No.
00:44:23Alright.
00:44:24We're sorry with the...
00:44:25Sorry, the survival of the fittest.
00:44:55You just let her take your work?
00:45:02She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
00:45:08You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves, go after the same clients, show them what real
00:45:14design looks like.
00:45:17We're not out yet.
00:45:25I heard there's a revolution, bro.
00:45:37I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
00:45:43You're welcome, mom.
00:45:48I want you and your team as your van.
00:45:53Full creative control.
00:45:56Oh, Miranda, your husband's dead, handled.
00:46:00And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
00:46:04Mr. Chevalier, I...
00:46:07I'm Pauline.
00:46:08Your sister is in good hands.
00:46:10The best heart surgeon in the country is already prepping for her next surgery.
00:46:16Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
00:46:19Don't thank me, thank Victoria.
00:46:23I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:46:27Vincent, I...
00:46:29I don't even know what to say.
00:46:31It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:46:34We were mad.
00:46:36I'm a teacher.
00:46:49I'll see you.
00:47:53I'm amazed 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.
00:48:07Remember, smile, we're about to make history.
00:48:18Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:48:21We don't follow trends, we create them.
00:48:29Fatin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcalfe 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?
00:48:53Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
00:48:58My company is thriving because of your generosity.
00:49:04Didn't expect to see you here.
00:49:05We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
00:49:12I multitask.
00:49:14Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:49:17You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in waters.
00:49:22The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:49:25And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
00:49:30Pregnant woman talk, you know.
00:49:31Three X and threes and a five of CEOs.
00:49:35What's next?
00:49:35The sales?
00:49:36Laugh all you want, Holly.
00:49:37We're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
00:49:39Laugh all you want, Holly.
00:49:40We're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
00:49:42And what real loyalty looks like.
00:49:45Sean, I'm glad you could make it.
00:50:01We have something very special to show you.
00:50:03Pick.
00:50:05I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
00:50:13Congratulations.
00:50:14Thank you, Sean.
00:50:15It's good to see you.
00:50:16Let's begin the pitches.
00:50:19You ready to lose?
00:50:20You're out of your league.
00:50:21You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
00:50:35First up, me and McMichael, Maison Laveau.
00:50:52Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:50:56Beautiful work.
00:51:10Both themes.
00:51:12We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:51:17After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
00:51:24Maison Laveau.
00:51:26Oh my god.
00:51:27Of course.
00:51:28This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
00:51:32What the hell did you people put me in?
00:51:33Are you trying to kill me?
00:51:34Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
00:51:39Who designed this tuxedo?
00:51:40Did you even read the brief?
00:51:46I mean, you must have read the brief.
00:51:47It's not complicated.
00:51:48It says no synthetic blends.
00:51:49I mean, it must be some kind of mistake.
00:51:51Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
00:51:52A mistake?
00:51:53I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:51:54Victoria, please.
00:51:55Victoria, please tell these amateurs how you pulled your glasses off.
00:52:00up.
00:52:01Victoria, please tell these amateurs how you pulled your glasses off.
00:52:03I mean, you must have read the brief.
00:52:04I mean, you must have read the brief.
00:52:05It's not complicated.
00:52:06It says no synthetic blends.
00:52:09I mean, it must be some kind of mistake.
00:52:12Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
00:52:14A mistake?
00:52:15I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:52:17Victoria, please tell these amateurs how you pulled your glasses off.
00:52:23I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
00:52:35I'd never risk Mr. Gossing's health for a deadline.
00:52:38And that's why Victoria is the best.
00:52:40She actually pays attention.
00:52:42After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
00:52:46The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:52:51The commission goes to Victoria.
00:52:54Mr. Goggling, it was just a slip up.
00:52:56Mia's design was the front runner all along.
00:52:59That's why they picked her first.
00:53:04Maybe everyone should see this.
00:53:12Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:53:16That's a new low. Even for you.
00:53:26Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
00:53:30And so you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design that.
00:53:37Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:53:40We're suspending all collaborations.
00:53:53Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
00:53:56You're blacklisted.
00:54:02Victoria, please.
00:54:03Victoria, please.
00:54:04Victoria, please.
00:54:12Victoria, please.
00:54:15I'll do anything.
00:54:16Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
00:54:22You made your choices, Holly.
00:54:24Now you live with that.
00:54:28Mom, you went too far.
00:54:34Shea Ngosling's look tonight is a dame junior
00:54:37crafted by the trailblazing team at Joven.
00:54:40Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
00:54:51To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
00:54:54fashion history and to the women who made it happen and to the maternity leave
00:55:00that actually means something

00:55:10happy birthday Victoria
00:55:19happy birthday to you
00:55:24guys look
00:55:30there's only one on the brink
00:55:34scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy
00:55:37ouch I guess karma has a sense of humor
00:55:41strange isn't it
00:55:44I gave them everything
00:55:50late nights weekends all the best years
00:55:54and they tossed us aside like we were nothing
00:55:56now it's all crashing down I thought I feel vindicated
00:56:01honestly it's a weird mix
00:56:04relief sure but
00:56:06also look who said that our best years are behind us
00:56:12look at this
00:56:14she then pushes for pay leave and parental support across all industries
00:56:21Victoria this is you you did this
00:56:24here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers
00:56:32not just for us but for every woman who comes after
00:56:35careful Vincent you almost forgot the best part
00:56:40just for me
00:56:52this is that
00:56:53it's a very good thing
00:56:54that means we want to see
00:56:55but if you want to see
00:56:56that means we want to see
00:56:57that means we want to see
00:56:59Yes! A thousand times yes!
00:57:26That's Amber!
00:57:29You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
00:57:47I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
00:57:51One word got out you left. Clients failed.
00:57:56The word freaked. Numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
00:58:01You steered me as on the boat into this storm, Holly.
00:58:05I know. I know. My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore. I destroyed everything. I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company. I didn't mean to pretend like this.
00:58:32Maison Laveau isn't dead. I bought it. Last week. The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of Given now.
00:58:44You're blind. Why would you do that?
00:58:47To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
00:58:55You win, Victoria. To help you do better than I did.
00:58:59I'll do it differently. Goodbye, Holly.
00:59:05Miss Winter, I just... I want to thank you. Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave. I can't keep working and...
00:59:34have my baby. You changed everything. Congratulations. Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
00:59:45I say you.
00:59:47Let's do it differently.
00:59:53Ready?
00:59:55Always.
00:59:59Always.
01:00:00And now, Jovan's new collection designed by Victoria Winsmore and Rosie.
