Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I thought this was the beginning of forever.
00:00:07I was wrong.
00:00:09When I married Julian Thorn, I thought I'd won the world.
00:00:14I gave him everything.
00:00:16All for us.
00:00:19Fame changed him.
00:00:21Appreciation turned into indifference,
00:00:23and then indifference into forgetting I was even there.
00:00:30Julian, on our anniversary, this can't be real.
00:00:51This is awkward.
00:00:53Milo, it was a mistake.
00:00:55It was a mistake.
00:00:56You do not accidentally fall inside of someone.
00:01:01Do you have any idea how this feels?
00:01:03To realize that what I thought was ours isn't ours at all.
00:01:09Um, actually, sweetie, you're stepping on my sketches.
00:01:15Could you move?
00:01:16These are my sketches.
00:01:26You did say we were a team, right?
00:01:30You're stealing my work and passing it off as their own?
00:01:34Turns out they weren't just screwing each other.
00:01:37They were screwing me, too.
00:01:38All this time, I thought our love was real.
00:01:51Turns out, I was the only one who believed it.
00:01:55Happy anniversary, Julian.
00:01:57You just lost your wife.
00:01:59It meant nothing, Lila.
00:02:20It was a mistake.
00:02:23It was a mistake?
00:02:25On our anniversary.
00:02:26Today isn't about us.
00:02:28It's about the gallery event.
00:02:31In honor of my mother, they're unveiling her portrait today.
00:02:34It's important that I have you there.
00:02:37Wear the sapphire necklace.
00:02:39She wore it on our wedding day.
00:02:43You cheated on me.
00:02:45And expect me to just stand by your side?
00:02:47God, you are exhausting when you're like this.
00:02:51You know what?
00:02:52I'll meet you there.
00:02:54Not feeling well.
00:02:55Fine.
00:03:00Don't let this ruin what we have.
00:03:02You have nothing without me.
00:03:07When Julian and my mother founded House of Thorn,
00:03:11she taught us that clothes don't just adorn a woman.
00:03:15They armor her.
00:03:17Thank you for being part of that legacy.
00:03:27Lila.
00:03:28I don't remember seeing your name on the guest list.
00:03:31You're starting to look desperate.
00:03:34Your brother insisted I come.
00:03:35Oh.
00:03:36How precious.
00:03:38You're like a little stray who doesn't realize she's been locked outside.
00:03:41You know, every family has one leech who just doesn't know when to let go.
00:03:48You know, one thing about strays is they bite.
00:03:55Bite?
00:03:56Oh, please.
00:03:57You're more like a yappy little squeak toy.
00:04:00You're just so last season.
00:04:02I mean, you're like the sample sale rack of a clothing store.
00:04:14Lila shoved me!
00:04:15Oh, my God!
00:04:23Lila shoved me!
00:04:24What is wrong with you?
00:04:28Are you okay?
00:04:30Julian, she did this to herself.
00:04:32You're better than this, Lila.
00:04:41Julian!
00:04:41Ivy!
00:04:42Over here!
00:04:43Ivy!
00:04:44Have a look!
00:04:45Over the shoulder!
00:04:46Love it!
00:04:47Yes, just like that.
00:04:48Gorgeous!
00:04:49Looking great!
00:04:50Give me a spin!
00:04:50Yeah, that's right!
00:04:51Look over here!
00:04:52Looking great!
00:04:53Mrs. Thorne, could you step aside?
00:04:54Julian, over here!
00:04:55Ivan!
00:04:56Look over here!
00:04:57Look over here, please!
00:04:58Over the shoulder!
00:04:59Yes!
00:05:00Over the shoulder!
00:05:00Over the shoulder!
00:05:05Move on!
00:05:06Over here!
00:05:06Over here!
00:05:07Over there!
00:05:07Oh, oh!
00:05:08Looking great!
00:05:08Julian!
00:05:09Julian!
00:05:09Julian!
00:05:10Julian!
00:05:10Over here!
00:05:11Julian!
00:05:12Julian!
00:05:13Julian!
00:05:14Ivan!
00:05:15Julian!
00:05:15Go!
00:05:16Go!
00:05:16Go!
00:05:17Go!
00:05:17Go!
00:05:18Go!
00:05:18Go!
00:05:19Easy. I got you.
00:05:44Those vultures aren't worth breaking an ankle.
00:05:57No thanks, Nina.
00:06:07Sign here, Mrs. Thor.
00:06:13Every morning, I wake up thinking how lucky I am.
00:06:30Lila filed for divorce?
00:06:34She filed without even telling me?
00:06:37Nice bitch!
00:06:38You filed for divorce behind my back? I will not be left.
00:06:51You like your car? Your credit card? Your excess?
00:06:55I can make your world smaller than a closet for you.
00:06:59You know, I loved you so much that I forgot myself.
00:07:06And I will not make that mistake again.
00:07:09Goodbye, Julian.
00:07:13Maybe I drove her away, broke what we had.
00:07:16But broken or not, she belongs to me.
00:07:19I let myself believe that being next to him meant something.
00:07:27That if I was patient, I'd be seen.
00:07:31I was never meant to be seen.
00:07:33I was meant to be erased.
00:07:36I know you're angry, but don't be stupid, Lila.
00:07:40We're not doing this.
00:07:42You're my wife, not some runaway brat filing for divorce because you didn't get your way.
00:07:48If you walk away from me, if you make this public, I will ruin you.
00:07:53I swear to God, I will destroy everything you care about personally, financially, publicly.
00:08:00I can make your life a living hell.
00:08:02Do not test me.
00:08:05Oh, it's a beautiful piece.
00:08:07Clean cut, rare stone.
00:08:23Take it.
00:08:25Take it.
00:08:53Take it.
00:08:58You okay?
00:09:00You again.
00:09:02There's blood on your shoes.
00:09:06It's not my blood.
00:09:08I guess you owe me a new pair of shoes.
00:09:15I didn't even get his name.
00:09:17I told myself that I wouldn't come back here, but I came for my things, not the memories.
00:09:30Oh my gosh, don't tell me.
00:09:33Did you finally work up the nerve to leave him?
00:09:40Ivy, if I wanted your opinion, I'd ask your publicist.
00:09:44Oh, but I just think it is such a shame that you're not going to be walking around the office anymore.
00:09:50Now I'm going to have to buy a new doormat for the lobby.
00:09:53So nice to see that you're still obsessed with my comings and goings.
00:09:56Aw, did I strike a nerve?
00:09:58First your designs, now your dignity.
00:10:02Hmm, what's left?
00:10:04Funny.
00:10:05I could say the exact same thing about you once everyone realizes you can't sketch your way out of a paper bag.
00:10:09Sweetie, you're the human equivalent of a for sale sticker on a clearance rack.
00:10:14But even discount bins have standards.
00:10:18Oh Ivy, I think we all know who the real knockoff is.
00:10:22Lip filler, Botox, fake lashes, fake tan.
00:10:27Everything you have, your man, your entire world, that's my name.
00:10:31It must eat you alive, doesn't it?
00:10:36To know that you will never be remembered for anything than a sad little wannabe that stole my designs.
00:10:49Oops!
00:10:51Clumsy.
00:10:53You bitch! This isn't over!
00:10:55No!
00:10:58She's right about that.
00:11:04There is a reason Lila sounds like a liar.
00:11:07Would you just let it go?
00:11:08That's all I'm going to say, Julian.
00:11:10She doesn't belong in this family.
00:11:12She attacked me, Julian.
00:11:15In front of everybody.
00:11:16She called me a gold digging whore.
00:11:17And then she threw coffee on me.
00:11:19What did you say to her?
00:11:21I was just being friendly.
00:11:23And she went feral on me.
00:11:24Well, maybe next time you shouldn't poke a wild animal with a stick.
00:11:29Julian, we have buyers flying in from Paris and Tokyo.
00:11:33Do you really want Lila assaulting one of your biggest investors' daughters in front of half of the staff?
00:11:40People talk, Julian.
00:11:42One whisper in the wrong ear.
00:11:44And this company bleeds value.
00:11:48Lila's been emotional lately.
00:11:51Unbelievable. You're taking her side after everything I've done for you?
00:11:57Listen, if Lila's becoming a liability, we need to handle it.
00:12:03Leave her to me.
00:12:06If you start scheming behind my back, I will cut you up like a tumor.
00:12:10And no one will miss you.
00:12:14Don't threaten me.
00:12:19You still love her.
00:12:26Lila, you're going to pay for this.
00:12:29You're the guy from the parking lot.
00:12:30You're the guy from the parking lot that saved me.
00:12:47You're the guy from the parking lot that saved me.
00:12:52You're the guy from the parking lot that saved me.
00:12:55I never got a chance to thank you.
00:12:57New to the building?
00:12:59Yeah.
00:13:01Well, you only had a pair of shoes.
00:13:04That's right.
00:13:07What's your shoe size?
00:13:08You guys.
00:13:13Does he think I'm a mind reader?
00:13:25Girl, you're about to make half of this room feel underdressed.
00:13:29Here for a job, Kat.
00:13:31Not a date.
00:13:32I mean, there's fashion execs crawling in this place.
00:13:35If I'm lucky, I can get my portfolio in front of the right people.
00:13:39You have to be the only person in Miami who should have a nightclub with a resume.
00:13:46Stop.
00:13:50Oh, Lila.
00:13:52Name not on the list.
00:13:54Don't tell me you actually thought you could get it.
00:13:57This isn't your world anymore.
00:13:58It's pathetic.
00:13:59Look.
00:14:00Some people just aren't built for this life.
00:14:06Oh, my God.
00:14:07That's Cyrus Voss.
00:14:09CEO of Voss Italian.
00:14:11House of Thorns biggest rival.
00:14:12That's the Cyrus Voss.
00:14:14The hottest up and coming designer in Miami.
00:14:17The latest event.
00:14:19That's the guy that saved me in my parking lot.
00:14:21He's in my new building.
00:14:25She's with me.
00:14:29Nobody's trying to do it.
00:14:31No.
00:14:33No, no.
00:14:35Are you too much around your way?
00:14:40Come and get around the street.
00:14:42Have a good night.
00:14:44No, no.
00:14:46No.
00:14:48No, no.
00:14:52No, no.
00:14:54No.
00:14:59You never told me your shoe size.
00:15:03You never told me your name.
00:15:06Lila.
00:15:09Cyrus.
00:15:12I knew that.
00:15:14Now.
00:15:16Look, this may be really forward, but I'm looking for a job.
00:15:23Any chance you're hiring?
00:15:27I don't think so.
00:15:29You are overqualified.
00:15:34Are you serious?
00:15:37Try again.
00:15:40You want to know the truth?
00:15:44I want to last a week as your boss.
00:15:47Not when all I'd be thinking about is bending you over my drafting table.
00:15:58Well then, it was lovely to see you.
00:16:16That was quick.
00:16:17Yeah, well, it's not the interview I expected.
00:16:21Let's just say he has a very interesting hiring process.
00:16:27He's still looking like you.
00:16:30Are you sure you don't want to go back over there and negotiate?
00:16:33What the hell is 11 and a half?
00:16:44His shoe size.
00:16:45Lila.
00:16:58Lila.
00:17:02Where is she?
00:17:02She's renting an apartment in Coral Gables.
00:17:12Hey, it's Ivy.
00:17:13How about a truce?
00:17:15Meet me at the Garmin Warehouse.
00:17:17I'm here pulling looks for the resort preview.
00:17:19Maybe she's ready to apologize.
00:17:29How did you know I was here?
00:17:31Are you having me follow?
00:17:32You've proved your point.
00:17:34Now pack your things.
00:17:35You're coming home.
00:17:36What's the point?
00:17:39It was a goodbye.
00:17:41Goodbye?
00:17:42Don't flatter yourself.
00:17:44You may have blindsided me with divorce papers,
00:17:46but I didn't give you permission to leave me.
00:17:52I don't need your permission.
00:17:54The papers are filed.
00:17:56Whether you agree to sign them or not.
00:17:59Watch your mouth.
00:18:01Or what?
00:18:02You'll stand there and sulk harder?
00:18:04You think this little rebellion makes you strong?
00:18:07It just makes you foolish.
00:18:14Where's your wedding ring?
00:18:16I sold it.
00:18:22Oh, you need money?
00:18:23Here.
00:18:28Buy whatever you want.
00:18:34When you're done with this little fit,
00:18:37come home.
00:18:38I am home.
00:18:39He doesn't get it.
00:18:45I'm not scared of him anymore.
00:18:53Hey, it's Ivy.
00:18:55How about a truce?
00:18:56Meet me at the Garmin warehouse.
00:18:58I guess I could hear what she has to say.
00:19:08That's the woman from the parking lot.
00:19:10No driver.
00:19:11No security.
00:19:13I better follow her.
00:19:14Mr. Voss.
00:19:24She's here.
00:19:25Alone.
00:19:26Something's not right.
00:19:29Okay, Ivy.
00:19:31Let's give this women supporting women thing a try.
00:19:34Ivy.
00:19:43Ivy?
00:19:47Ivy?
00:19:51I'm here.
00:19:57Hello?
00:19:57Hello?
00:20:01Hello?
00:20:01Right on time.
00:20:22Where's Ivy?
00:20:23She wasn't able to make it.
00:20:26I don't think so.
00:20:28Come on.
00:20:29Don't make this harder than it has to be.
00:20:41She showed up like a moth to flame.
00:20:43Can you believe that?
00:20:47Ivy?
00:20:48I thought you were going to scare her,
00:20:50not scar her.
00:20:52Don't be so dramatic.
00:20:54They're just there to give her a little fright.
00:20:55You know,
00:20:57remind the bitch who she's dealing with.
00:20:59If anything happens,
00:21:01if Julian finds out,
00:21:03he won't.
00:21:04The boys know the rules.
00:21:06Besides,
00:21:07if Lila doesn't learn her place now,
00:21:08she never will.
00:21:10Well, you better pray this doesn't backfire.
00:21:12By the time I'm done with her,
00:21:14House of Thorn won't owe her a dime.
00:21:16Miss Monroe went in ten minutes ago.
00:21:31She still hasn't come out.
00:21:32Something doesn't feel right, boss.
00:21:33You didn't go in after her?
00:21:35I didn't want to overstep.
00:21:36I'm on my way.
00:21:37Send me the location.
00:21:38You're going to want to see this.
00:21:50Pull up the footage now.
00:21:52I already did.
00:21:53It's your wife.
00:21:54Lila,
00:21:55what the hell have you walked into?
00:21:56You want to play, princess?
00:22:13Let's play it.
00:22:14Don't make us chase you.
00:22:21Still inside?
00:22:23No movement since you went in.
00:22:26You're not getting out of here!
00:22:45Man of the lines, Bjorn.
00:22:47You're going to get it now, bitch.
00:22:51Let's go!
00:22:56Be a good girl.
00:23:13It's all over for a second.
00:23:17I'm acting as a security camera.
00:23:19Back forward.
00:23:20Let's go.
00:23:20Let's go.
00:23:26Get away from her!
00:23:38All you need.
00:23:41Lila, hey.
00:23:43Hey, are you okay?
00:23:45You okay?
00:23:46Are you hurt?
00:23:47I think I'm okay.
00:23:48Yeah?
00:23:49Yeah.
00:23:51Okay.
00:23:53Let's get you out of here.
00:23:54Okay?
00:23:54Okay.
00:23:56All yours, Lila.
00:24:01Copy that.
00:24:03Move, and I'll blow your dicks off.
00:24:05Cops are on the way.
00:24:18What have you done?
00:24:20I don't know what you're talking about.
00:24:22I'll drop the innocent act.
00:24:23If Lila is hurt, you will pay.
00:24:27Or you forget what I told you before.
00:24:30I am protecting this family.
00:24:33I don't know why you dragged her into our world.
00:24:36She's beneath us.
00:24:37She doesn't belong here.
00:24:38She's nothing but a liability.
00:24:39And yet, without her, House of Thorn starts to look like a house of cards.
00:24:44You don't actually think she's indispensable.
00:24:47Don't I?
00:24:49Every stitch they praise, every article they write, it's always been her.
00:24:56I've let them believe that it's me.
00:24:59You're saying you want her back?
00:25:01She is mine.
00:25:03Not you.
00:25:04Not her.
00:25:06Not anybody is going to take her from me.
00:25:08Lila, I've been trying to get a hold of you all night.
00:25:23Where have you been?
00:25:25Why do you care so much all of a sudden?
00:25:27Because until a judge makes it official, you are still my wife.
00:25:31Come on, you're coming home.
00:25:33I've already told you, I am home now.
00:25:36And I'm not going anywhere.
00:25:37Nonsense.
00:25:39You're coming with me.
00:25:40Did you not hear her?
00:25:42She said she could take care of herself.
00:25:45Voss Thorn.
00:25:47I should have known you wouldn't just poach my seamstress.
00:25:50Now you're circling my wife.
00:25:55Wife?
00:25:57It's complicated.
00:25:59I mean, we're not.
00:26:00We're divorced.
00:26:04She's mine.
00:26:05Every stitch she's wearing.
00:26:07Everything she's ever sewn is because of me.
00:26:11Well, that's hard to believe.
00:26:13Considering you've always coasted off the talents of others.
00:26:15You don't know a damn thing about me.
00:26:17Oh, I know.
00:26:18Enough.
00:26:19Like the fact that whatever hold you think you had on her, it's gone.
00:26:22Okay, enough.
00:26:23Both of you.
00:26:24Lila.
00:26:25Save it.
00:26:26And you.
00:26:27Thank you for the assist tonight.
00:26:29And I'm fine now.
00:26:30I'm going to get some rest.
00:26:32Okay.
00:26:33Please.
00:26:34I'll call you tomorrow.
00:26:34This isn't over.
00:26:55Julian knows everything.
00:26:57I warned you about this.
00:26:59Relax, okay?
00:27:00He's emotional, not stupid.
00:27:03Besides, he's going to thank me in the end.
00:27:06You went too far this time.
00:27:09Okay, well, somebody will have to do what you wouldn't.
00:27:11Plus, now we're both going to get what we want.
00:27:14My family is willing to invest another hundred million into House of Thorn.
00:27:18All you have to do is back our engagement.
00:27:21Fine.
00:27:22The spring couture exhibition is tonight.
00:27:26I'll make it official there.
00:27:31Not interested.
00:27:33It's Cyrus.
00:27:34It's Cyrus.
00:27:44May I?
00:27:50Yeah.
00:27:56What are you doing here?
00:27:57I'm headed to the House of Thorn's spring couture exhibition.
00:28:02And I wanted you to be my date.
00:28:09What?
00:28:11Why?
00:28:11One, I like to keep an eye on my competition.
00:28:15And two, I suspect you might be responsible for what they're showcasing there.
00:28:20You're quite perceptive.
00:28:23But I would have nothing to wear, so...
00:28:26Evening, Mr. Rowe.
00:28:34You really came prepared.
00:28:37When it comes to what I want, you bet I come prepared.
00:28:40Nothing to Shoot.
00:28:41Papa jiver.
00:28:42We'll be back.
00:28:42Goodbye.
00:28:43Bye.
00:28:44Bye.
00:28:45Bye.
00:28:45Bye.
00:28:47Bye.
00:28:48Bye.
00:28:50Bye.
00:28:55Bye.
00:29:04Bye.
00:29:06Bye.
00:29:07Bye.
00:29:08Bye.
00:29:08Bye.
00:29:09Bye.
00:29:10This one?
00:29:12That one.
00:29:14Who knew revenge could look this good?
00:29:40You're here.
00:29:42Just agreed a few investors.
00:29:44I won't be staying long.
00:29:46Oh, you came to sleep.
00:29:48Not tonight.
00:29:50And why not?
00:29:56Ladies and gentlemen,
00:29:58before we unveil this season's Spring Couture Collection,
00:30:02I have a very special announcement today.
00:30:04It is with great honor that I share that my brother,
00:30:08Julian Thorn,
00:30:10and the luminous Ivy Blake,
00:30:12are engaged
00:30:14to be married!
00:30:18And tonight,
00:30:20I would like to honor her
00:30:22with a piece of her choosing
00:30:24as a proper welcome
00:30:26to the Thorn family.
00:30:28I'll soon be Mrs. Thorn.
00:30:30That useless skank Lila
00:30:32never stood a chance.
00:30:34They really are perfect for each other.
00:30:36The Thorn name and the Blake fortune,
00:30:38a ton of stuff.
00:30:42Who says I'm getting married?
00:30:44How are you?
00:31:04Is that Lila Munroe?
00:31:06I thought her and Julian were getting divorced.
00:31:08And she's with Cyrus Voss?
00:31:10Why the hell is she here?
00:31:12With him?
00:31:20Lila, what are you doing?
00:31:23Julian and I are engaged.
00:31:25You're making a scene.
00:31:27Their divorce isn't even official yet.
00:31:30If Lila goes Scorch to Earth, our reputation would be completely ruined.
00:31:34I can't let that happen.
00:31:37This is my brother's night.
00:31:40Whatever point you think you're trying to make, don't.
00:31:44You need to leave now.
00:31:48I wouldn't dream of stealing the spotlight.
00:31:52I'm simply just here to wish my ex-husband well.
00:31:59Lila, what is this?
00:32:00Some pathetic stunt to embarrass me?
00:32:03No.
00:32:04I just thought it this time that everyone learned the truth.
00:32:08About everything.
00:32:10A toast to the truth.
00:32:13That you're a nobody clinging to a name that you never deserved.
00:32:16You should have walked away when you had the chance.
00:32:31Yeah.
00:32:32You should have walked away when you had the chance.
00:32:36But instead, here you are, embarrassing yourself in front of half of the industry.
00:32:42I'm not embarrassed.
00:32:43Well, you should be.
00:32:44Showing up here in some knockoff dress with...
00:32:46Him.
00:32:49Oh, it's pathetic.
00:32:50She's just clinging to whatever little attention she can get.
00:32:53She was a nobody when you met her.
00:32:55And she's a nobody now.
00:32:57Let's be honest.
00:32:58She was always the wife that you kind of kept tucked away.
00:33:01Like a house plant.
00:33:04Quiet.
00:33:05Decorative.
00:33:07And easy to ignore.
00:33:11Julian gave you everything.
00:33:14Oh my god.
00:33:15I mean, status.
00:33:16Privilege.
00:33:17A life that most women would kill for.
00:33:20And yet somehow, you still think you were owed applause for, what, staying home and playing
00:33:25dressy?
00:33:25I think we've all heard enough from you two.
00:33:28No.
00:33:29Let them keep talking.
00:33:31You're really just digging yourself into a bigger hole.
00:33:33You don't get to just show up here and ruin my night.
00:33:37Not after the way you acted.
00:33:38Running away.
00:33:40Quitting.
00:33:40Selling your ring like some cheap pawn shop queen.
00:33:44It's vulgar.
00:33:45And you show up here with him, whose name and money you think gives you some kind of relevance?
00:33:49Well, it won't.
00:33:51Because you're still the sad, desperate little girl from Coral Way.
00:33:56Right.
00:33:57You know what?
00:33:59Think what you want.
00:34:01Oh, we will.
00:34:02Because every person here knows the real truth.
00:34:06You're not talented enough, smart enough, or beautiful enough to be a thorn.
00:34:14You never were.
00:34:19You'll leave here tonight forgotten.
00:34:25And tomorrow, when this moment is over, you'll just be a sad little footnote.
00:34:31My legacy lives on in the designs I created.
00:34:35You know, the ones that you stole.
00:34:37Oh, please, don't claim that you, a kitchen trophy, are the genius behind the brand.
00:34:44This is a media event.
00:34:49We don't need to end up on page six.
00:34:51Don't worry.
00:34:53By the time I'm finished, we'll end up on the first page of time styles section.
00:34:58Why, what?
00:34:58This is beneath you.
00:35:00No, Julian.
00:35:01What's beneath me is standing by one more second while you and Ivy take credit for my designs.
00:35:06Everybody knows that Julian is the genius behind the brand.
00:35:10The rest of us are just lucky to orbit his brilliance.
00:35:14Really?
00:35:16Okay.
00:35:17What about you?
00:35:19Please, please tell everyone your inspiration behind the new fall design you pitched.
00:35:23New Leaf?
00:35:23I know how personal it was to you.
00:35:27Go ahead.
00:35:31Inspiration isn't linear.
00:35:34It's a process.
00:35:35You know, it's about turning over a new page.
00:35:40Or leaf.
00:35:43I don't need to answer any of your questions.
00:35:46Yeah.
00:35:47You know, my mother was a quilter.
00:35:50The leaf stitch patterns?
00:35:51I adapted them from our old design journals and bought the whole concept around renewal.
00:35:58New life.
00:36:00Old threads.
00:36:01And you stole it and put your name on it.
00:36:05Oh, who are you going to believe?
00:36:07Somebody born of this world?
00:36:09Or somebody desperate to be let in?
00:36:14Oh, who are you going to believe?
00:36:16Somebody born of this world?
00:36:17Or somebody desperate to be let in?
00:36:19I have proof.
00:36:24This ends now.
00:36:25Okay, you made your little scene.
00:36:27But if you say one more word, I'm going to ruin whatever pathetic life you think you still have.
00:36:35I backed up everything.
00:36:40Every draft.
00:36:41Every edit.
00:36:42Every time she borrowed something and passed it off as her own.
00:36:45I'll tweak a few seams and slap my name on it.
00:36:48Lila's an apron model with a Pinterest board.
00:36:50No one will question it.
00:36:51My God!
00:36:53That is criminal.
00:36:54That's clearly doctored.
00:36:56I mean, AI can make anything seem real these days.
00:36:57No, and I'm not the only one she stole from.
00:37:01Oh, come on.
00:37:02They're nobodies.
00:37:04Bitter nobodies who are just jealous.
00:37:06She stole my internship designs and sold them to an overseas buyer.
00:37:12And she said no one would believe me because I didn't have the look for couture.
00:37:16She blackmailed me into silence with a fake NDA.
00:37:20Just so we're clear, none of this has been verified.
00:37:22Oh, it's verified.
00:37:23All these statements and footage got sent to House of Thorn, Inside Council.
00:37:28Oh, and a copy sent to Woman of Fashion today, and Mode, and Time Stylist.
00:37:37TikTok.
00:37:39Do something.
00:37:41You told me the fall line was yours.
00:37:44It is.
00:37:45I mean, parts of it.
00:37:49Jesus Christ.
00:37:50Okay, you could have done something.
00:37:52You could have stopped Ivy, but instead, you chose her over me.
00:37:58Okay, but that is not true.
00:38:03Do you remember when I said it's time for everyone to know the truth about everything?
00:38:06I would think very carefully about the next words that come out of your mouth.
00:38:11Or what?
00:38:13Yeah.
00:38:14You know, yesterday I got a very interesting text from Ivy.
00:38:18Hey, it's Ivy.
00:38:19How about a truce?
00:38:21Meet me at the garment warehouse.
00:38:23I'm here pulling looks for the resort preview.
00:38:26She's making it up.
00:38:27I did not text that.
00:38:27You asked for a truce, and to talk, and I show up, expecting to find you, but instead
00:38:35there's two men waiting for me who locked the doors and cornered me.
00:38:38She could have been killed.
00:38:39This is insane.
00:38:41There's no proof that I had anything to do with that.
00:38:44It's your word against mine.
00:38:45You sent it to me.
00:38:47You knew what was waiting.
00:38:48That's not true.
00:38:49And you can't prove that.
00:38:50Actually, we can.
00:38:51Inside are the names of the two men that attacked Lila.
00:38:58Their employment information, security footage, bank statements, and text messages from Ivy's phone.
00:39:06Julian, they're making this up.
00:39:08I mean, you don't believe them, do you?
00:39:09You went too far this time, I know.
00:39:11This is character assassination.
00:39:13I'm the victim here.
00:39:14No.
00:39:15Lila is.
00:39:16You know, you tried to scare me into silence, or worse, but you only made me stronger.
00:39:23Lila, I didn't know.
00:39:25I promise you, Lila, I didn't know any of this.
00:39:28That's your problem, Thorn.
00:39:30You never know.
00:39:32You're so wrapped up by your own ego that you miss everything.
00:39:35Watch it, Foss.
00:39:37Or I might just forget the word public.
00:39:38By all means, try me.
00:39:40Ivy Blake, you're on the arrest for a conspiracy to commit assault and attempted kidnapping.
00:39:54No, get your hands off me, I'm innocent.
00:39:58Julian, do something.
00:40:00Margaret Thorn, we're taking you in for questioning as well.
00:40:03What?
00:40:04Why?
00:40:05We have phone records of you and Miss Blake communicating during the time of the incident.
00:40:10Julian, you need to stop this.
00:40:13You know this was Ivy.
00:40:15You didn't seem to have a problem with it last night.
00:40:18You're really going to take Lila's side and destroy this family after everything we've built?
00:40:22This isn't over, Lila.
00:40:23Okay, you're nothing compared to me.
00:40:25You hear me?
00:40:34Goodbye, Julian.
00:40:36And good riddance to all of you.
00:40:40Well, that was entertaining.
00:40:46I'm exhausted.
00:40:52For tonight.
00:40:54Well, you avenged yourself.
00:40:56You should be happy now.
00:40:58I'm not going to lie.
00:41:00It was satisfying.
00:41:00Can I ask you something?
00:41:15The other day, in the parking lot, what were you doing there?
00:41:22I'm saving your life, apparently.
00:41:26I'm serious.
00:41:29Well, I wasn't following you, if that's what you're asking.
00:41:32I was meeting the supplier.
00:41:34Wrong place.
00:41:36Right time, I guess.
00:41:40Good night, Lila.
00:41:44Good night, Cyrus.
00:41:45I wasn't finished.
00:42:03Good night.
00:42:33I haven't done that.
00:42:35Maybe.
00:42:37But you didn't stop me.
00:42:51Of all the mistakes I've made,
00:42:53this one
00:42:55might be my favorite.
00:42:57Bad news sir.
00:42:59Your assistant was up all night
00:43:01with food poisoning and now there's not enough time
00:43:03to find a temp.
00:43:05We bored in two hours, Arthur.
00:43:07I'm meeting with investors and have the runway reveal.
00:43:09What do you want me to do?
00:43:11Take some stranger off the street?
00:43:13I need somebody to keep me sane.
00:43:23What?
00:43:25Why are you looking at me?
00:43:27Come on.
00:43:29Congratulations.
00:43:31Excuse me?
00:43:33Well, remember that assistant job you were asking about?
00:43:35It's yours.
00:43:37If you want it.
00:43:39This could finally be a chance to prove myself.
00:43:41Not just as a designer,
00:43:43but as someone who belongs in the room.
00:43:45At the table,
00:43:47and calling shots.
00:43:49Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:51Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:52Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:53Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:54Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:55Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:56Mrs. Thorne.
00:43:57Mrs. Lyla.
00:43:58Mrs. Lyla.
00:43:59She was last seen arriving at T&B Airport with Cyrus Voss.
00:44:01What?
00:44:02He has no right to take my wife anywhere.
00:44:05Anywhere.
00:44:21Mr. Lyla, I'm on my way to the airport.
00:44:23Don't get on that plane.
00:44:25Mr. Lyla, I'm on my way to the airport.
00:44:27Don't get on that plane.
00:44:29Mr. Lyla.
00:44:33Did you find her?
00:44:35There's no sign of her on any commercial flight.
00:44:38She must have taken Mr. Voss's private jet.
00:44:42Lila, you're going to regret this.
00:45:03Maybe we should have took the stairs.
00:45:24About last night.
00:45:26I apologize.
00:45:28It won't happen again.
00:45:30Especially since now we'll be working together.
00:45:35Of course.
00:45:39So, uh, what's on the itinerary for tonight?
00:45:43Cocktail party at Victor Danes.
00:45:45He's the VP for Monarch Capital Partners.
00:45:48Well, then I'll take a quick nap.
00:45:50Be sure to wake me up at six.
00:46:00Cyrus?
00:46:05Six o'clock.
00:46:10Cyrus?
00:46:11No, no, no.
00:46:24Pull it together Lila.
00:46:27Just do your job.
00:46:30Cyrus?
00:46:32Wake up.
00:46:34Mr. Gloves?
00:47:04This is a terrible idea.
00:47:34I know.
00:47:44We shouldn't.
00:48:00Are you leading with the fall design tonight?
00:48:21Yes, it's the most buzzworthy right now.
00:48:25Yeah, it's buzzworthy, but that's not what Monarch Capital wants to hear tonight.
00:48:32She sounds awfully sure of herself.
00:48:35Let's see if she could back it up.
00:48:38May I?
00:48:51Go on?
00:48:53Okay.
00:48:54All right, yes.
00:49:00See, these designs are made with upcycled materials, right?
00:49:04Lower production, premium pricing.
00:49:06That aligns perfectly with Victor Dane's ESG priorities.
00:49:10Conscious in luxury and sustainability in fashion.
00:49:14Go with this tonight.
00:49:21You really are overqualified to be an assistant.
00:49:24It's a good thing I don't want to have to do this for long.
00:49:29Are you sure you're ready to charm a room full of billionaires?
00:49:38Well, I termed you.
00:49:40Didn't I?
00:49:45What the hell is she doing here?
00:49:50Of course.
00:49:51Why would he look at me when he could have her?
00:50:00Who's that?
00:50:01Allegra St. Clair.
00:50:03Vogue cover model.
00:50:05Her father's the CEO of St. Clair Group.
00:50:07We dated for a hot second.
00:50:10Oh.
00:50:11And we may or may not have been engaged.
00:50:15I'm sorry.
00:50:16What?
00:50:17Cyrus.
00:50:18It's good to see you.
00:50:20Allegra.
00:50:23Who's this?
00:50:24Arch.
00:50:25Lila.
00:50:26Monroe.
00:50:27I'm Cyrus' assistant.
00:50:30Assistant?
00:50:31Looks like you need a drink.
00:50:33We have a lot to catch up on.
00:50:41Myla, when are you going to end this foolishness?
00:50:58You're still my wife.
00:51:00You can't just disappear from my life like this.
00:51:02And you can't take a hint, can you?
00:51:05I want nothing to do with you.
00:51:11Where's the private jet land?
00:51:15Upstate New York.
00:51:16Just outside the city.
00:51:28Do you want me for a cocktail?
00:51:30No, thanks.
00:51:31I'm good.
00:51:32Come on, just one.
00:51:34You look like you need something to take the edge off.
00:51:37I'm not drinking tonight.
00:51:41It's not real smart to be rude in a place like this.
00:51:45You don't know who you're refusing an offer from.
00:51:48Let me go.
00:51:50Or what?
00:51:52Or I'll break every one of your fingers myself.
00:52:01Mr. Voss, I was just trying to be friendly.
00:52:05You work for the Briarstone Group, don't you?
00:52:09Yeah.
00:52:10Well then, I will be sure to tell Howard that you are the reason that Briarstone won't be underwriting our IPO.
00:52:16That'll cost him what?
00:52:1825 million dollars?
00:52:20Mr. Voss, please.
00:52:21I swear, it won't happen again.
00:52:22I'll apologize.
00:52:23To her, to Howard, whoever you want.
00:52:25Don't bother.
00:52:26Why don't you disappear?
00:52:28Before I really lose my patience.
00:52:35You enjoyed that.
00:52:36Didn't you?
00:52:37Very much.
00:52:38Yes.
00:52:41Hey, why don't you go wait in the car?
00:52:43I need to go say goodbye to Victor.
00:52:45Hey.
00:52:53I thought tonight I would prove I could hold my own in this world.
00:52:57That I was more than just someone's assistant.
00:53:00Here I am again.
00:53:02Still invisible.
00:53:04First Julian, now Cyrus?
00:53:18I guess all men are the same.
00:53:23How many times do I need to tell you, Allegra?
00:53:26We are over.
00:53:27What am I supposed to do?
00:53:29I'm still in love with you.
00:53:31Yeah, well you should have thought about that before you cheated on me.
00:53:36And now would be a great time to know how to read lips.
00:53:39But no.
00:53:40I just vanish instead.
00:53:45Goodbye, Allegra.
00:53:47Cyrus, you don't get to decide when we're finished.
00:53:50I do.
00:53:51Have fun peeping on us?
00:54:01I wasn't peeping.
00:54:03I looked over and caught a glimpse of...
00:54:07I looked away immediately.
00:54:09Caught a glimpse of what?
00:54:12You kissing her.
00:54:13You saw it wrong.
00:54:22I don't believe it.
00:54:24But I can pretend that I do.
00:54:27Fine.
00:54:28I saw it wrong.
00:54:30You don't believe me, do you?
00:54:32I do.
00:54:34Look, there's only one person I've kissed tonight.
00:54:40And there's only one person I have any interest in kissing again.
00:54:47I must have jumped to the wrong conclusion.
00:54:55Arthur, take us back to the hotel.
00:54:57The Flash runway reveal is at 5pm tonight.
00:55:06Some SoHo members only rooftop club.
00:55:08I assume you already checked the guest list?
00:55:10Twice.
00:55:11And I flagged the influencers that actually matter.
00:55:14Good.
00:55:16We got a problem.
00:55:20Define problem.
00:55:22Everything for the reveal, the gowns, the accessories, the entire line is gone.
00:55:27Comp escaped.
00:55:28Had it checked.
00:55:29The driver said something about incomplete permits.
00:55:32But it smells intentional.
00:55:35You don't think Julian had something to do with this?
00:55:38I want to put it past him.
00:55:40So you're saying we have nothing?
00:55:42No samples.
00:55:43No backups.
00:55:44And no time.
00:55:45Eight hours.
00:55:47Sir?
00:55:49We have eight hours to build it up from scratch.
00:55:53You said you wanted to prove yourself.
00:55:55Well, now's your chance.
00:56:00Let's get to work.
00:56:01All right.
00:56:02Well, that's not too bad.
00:56:04For an assistant.
00:56:05Oh!
00:56:06Oh!
00:56:07All right, well that's not too bad for an assistant.
00:56:33Is that all I am doing?
00:56:40I warned you, I wouldn't last a week as your boss.
00:57:07All right, one last check on the front of the house.
00:57:19You're in charge until I get back.
00:57:35So this is what it feels like to actually be seen.
00:57:50I warned you, Lila.
00:57:57Have you completely lost your mind?
00:58:00The checkpoint, it was you.
00:58:04Just a few missing documents, tipped to the right customs officer, and suddenly the whole line is held up for inspection.
00:58:10No, you and I, we really deserve each other.
00:58:13What choice did you give me?
00:58:15Without you, House of Thorn crumbles.
00:58:17Every investor out there should be mine, just like you.
00:58:22You're insane if you think we have a future together.
00:58:24You think I'm gonna let Cyrus have you?
00:58:36You're coming home, or everything burns.
00:58:40I think you've mistaken me for someone who's afraid of you.
00:58:45You should be.
00:58:47Want to destroy everything?
00:58:49Fine.
00:58:50But just remember, you go down with it.
00:58:53That's where you're wrong.
00:58:55I'm untouchable.
00:58:57Step away from her!
00:58:59Step away from her!
00:59:04Step away from her!
00:59:06Savior's arrived.
00:59:27Security!
00:59:28Do you think this is over?
00:59:41You're nothing without me.
00:59:43You need me!
00:59:45Not anymore.
00:59:48Nice swing.
00:59:49Thanks!
00:59:50I've been waiting for so long to hit him with something.
00:59:54Well, our runway awaits.
01:00:11And now, the award for Creative Director of the Year goes to...
01:00:18Voss Atelier's Lila Monroe!
01:00:24Julian used to think that love meant belonging to someone else.
01:00:36Now, I know.
01:00:38It means standing beside someone.
01:00:41And never, ever feeling invisible again.
