00:00:00Alex! Alex!
00:00:04Man down with our drink! We have a man down! We need backup now!
00:00:08Cold!
00:00:10It's alright, man.
00:00:12Let's get out of here.
00:00:14I'll take you on your bed.
00:00:16We're getting another drink together.
00:00:20Take it.
00:00:22You are my best.
00:00:24You're the best. Promise me.
00:00:26Get back home.
00:00:28I protect my sister Victoria.
00:00:32The King's family is a snake pit
00:00:34that you have to protect her.
00:00:36There's a large, simple view.
00:00:52Alex saved my life that day,
00:00:54and I've never looked back since.
00:00:56I left the bloodshed behind,
00:00:58and built the Shadow Alliance,
00:01:00the country's largest veterans' network.
00:01:02The Shadow Alliance quickly rose to power,
00:01:04feared, and respected across the world.
00:01:08But I chose a much simpler post.
00:01:10Content to live in the shadows as the Kingsley security guard.
00:01:14Given one promise to a fallen friend.
00:01:16To protect Victoria.
00:01:18To protect Victoria.
00:01:20Or a Torres?
00:01:24Not that he had too many people,
00:01:26but, I knew he had too many people.
00:01:28The Shadow Alliance came from the
00:01:41생각을 through the
00:01:44رuss that came home.
00:01:47After Victoria gets married today, my job is done.
00:02:00And we're hiding my identity.
00:02:05Yo, Cole, looking sharp as ever.
00:02:08You think we'll get a slice of that buddy cake?
00:02:10Hire Mrs. Kingsley to marry and some rich bastard to trust my money.
00:02:14The least they can do is give us some good food and booze.
00:02:17Let's talk.
00:02:19Or work.
00:02:20Or work.
00:02:21It's not our fault they sent us to do some patrol to some empty church.
00:02:24Look around, man.
00:02:26Not a soul in sight.
00:02:28Even the stray cats around here have better things to do.
00:02:34Now take that back.
00:02:36My bra is rolling up.
00:02:37Showtime, baby.
00:02:47No speeches, no pictures, no champagne power.
00:03:06We'll have to strap it up in 30 minutes.
00:03:07Um, boss, nobody's here.
00:03:13Not even the groom.
00:03:16Where is everyone?
00:03:18I just got word.
00:03:20The groom's backed out.
00:03:21He said...
00:03:22Said what?
00:03:25He said that if you're the one that Tristan Vann wants, no man in the city will dare to marry you.
00:03:30Tell Tristan to leave me the hell alone.
00:03:35That idiot doesn't get to decide how I live my life.
00:03:38But, boss, the deadline for your marriage is coming up.
00:03:40If you don't get married soon, then they'll take back my parents' company, right?
00:03:44My parents might be dead, and my brother might have gone missing, but no one's touching our family business.
00:04:03Congratulations on the wedding, Ms. Kingsley.
00:04:08Who are you?
00:04:10Cole Slate.
00:04:11You married?
00:04:12No.
00:04:13Girlfriends?
00:04:14Also, no.
00:04:16Good.
00:04:17Then you can marry me.
00:04:25Sorry, no can you.
00:04:30It's purely transactional.
00:04:32I'll pay you a salary for every month that you're my husband.
00:04:3620K.
00:04:37How does that sound?
00:04:39After a year, we can get divorced.
00:04:41Still no.
00:04:42Do you know who I am?
00:04:46I'm Victoria Kingsley.
00:04:48CEO of Kingsley Tech.
00:04:53Fine.
00:04:54Name your price.
00:04:55I know who you are, Ms. Kingsley.
00:04:57I know who you are, Ms. Kingsley.
00:04:57That's exactly why I can't marry you.
00:05:00You're the sister of my best friend.
00:05:01Someone I swore to protect.
00:05:03Not everyone will stop me.
00:05:05Seriously, you're a goddamn security guard.
00:05:08You have no right to turn down my boss.
00:05:10No, no.
00:05:11It's fine.
00:05:13I'll handle this.
00:05:14You try to put out the fires with my family.
00:05:16I'll handle this.
00:05:16I'll handle this.
00:05:16I'll handle this.
00:05:17I'll handle this.
00:05:17I'll handle this.
00:05:17I'll handle this.
00:05:18Tristan Vann.
00:05:38Kingsley's arch nemesis.
00:05:44What is he doing here?
00:05:46He's a car, dog.
00:06:01Alex.
00:06:03I can't do this anymore.
00:06:07Where are you?
00:06:10Oh, maybe.
00:06:12I heard you're in the market for a groom.
00:06:16Oh, Alex.
00:06:18Looks like your sister's in trouble.
00:06:23Who the hell let you in here?
00:06:25Hey, Corey Kingsley.
00:06:27You know how much I love you.
00:06:31Marry me.
00:06:32And you know I'd rather die than marry you.
00:06:36Oh, baby.
00:06:36But then, what do you most kingsley for?
00:06:41New flesh.
00:06:41Every man in the city knows you're mine.
00:06:44No one's going to marry you, sweet cheeks.
00:06:49It's either me or nothing.
00:06:53Your ass is mine.
00:06:56Not in a million years, you scumbag.
00:06:59You think I don't know?
00:07:01You were just after the quantum chip tech my parents left behind.
00:07:04And marrying me happens to be the fastest, cleanest way to get your hands on it.
00:07:08Fine.
00:07:10You caught me.
00:07:12Come on, then.
00:07:14Let's make this matter.
00:07:23Get off me!
00:07:27Come on, then.
00:07:28Just give me a little hold on.
00:07:38Where the hell are you going?
00:07:40I'm going in.
00:07:42Oh, man.
00:07:43Is it brilliant enough to please save you from those kings?
00:07:45Who the fuck are you?
00:08:08Leave him alone.
00:08:09He has nothing to do with this.
00:08:10This guy must have a death wish.
00:08:14You think you can come in here and play hero?
00:08:18Do you know who the fuck I am?
00:08:21I don't give a shit who you are.
00:08:23Victoria is my fiancée.
00:08:29You married Victoria Kingsley.
00:08:33Don't make me laugh.
00:08:34That's right.
00:08:35We're getting married, and there's nothing you can do to change that, Tristan.
00:08:39Sorry, buddy.
00:08:40When you're going out in a body bag,
00:08:43Victoria is mine.
00:08:46Kill this cocky piece of shit.
00:08:48Let's go.
00:08:48Let's go.
00:08:48You can't just be a security guard.
00:09:18I am.
00:09:28Easy there, bud.
00:09:30It's a trigger happy.
00:09:32In your hands, all a woman doesn't make you a man.
00:09:35If you want to fight, try some of your own size.
00:09:38You're pretty tough for a guard, dog.
00:09:40I'll give you that.
00:09:42Do you think this shit scares me?
00:09:46Casey Bank was snagging.
00:09:48I'm going to make sure everyone hears that you married a security guard.
00:09:55Let's see how long it takes your family to sell you.
00:09:57Is that a threat?
00:09:58No.
00:09:59Just the truth.
00:10:02The Kingsley's are broke, Vicky.
00:10:08You think this red cop's going to fix that?
00:10:10Well, if I can't fix it.
00:10:14No.
00:10:15Stop.
00:10:15Give me this one.
00:10:17No, no, no.
00:10:18If you kill me,
00:10:20the Kingsley's are finished.
00:10:23We'll see about that.
00:10:25Fine, fine, fine.
00:10:26We'll have a civilized discussion at the banquet.
00:10:30Please.
00:10:31You don't kill me.
00:10:32Pick the fuck out.
00:10:43Thanks for saving me just now.
00:10:45You okay?
00:10:45You okay?
00:10:48Cole.
00:10:49Did you mean what you said earlier?
00:11:06Will you marry me?
00:11:10Marry him.
00:11:10I've got the city's biggest crime boss, Tristan Van,
00:11:15bring it down your neck and you all get married.
00:11:17Is this supposed to be a thank you or a death sentence?
00:11:20You're right.
00:11:21It's too much to ask.
00:11:35But I happen to like a good job.
00:11:37See you, I'll marry you.
00:11:45Really?
00:11:46So make it official.
00:11:48Alex,
00:11:49if marrying your sister is the only way to exact her,
00:11:51I've got to do what I've got to do.
00:11:53You're not mad at me, brother.
00:11:55Let's go.
00:12:00Oh my god, boss, you did it.
00:12:02You really did it.
00:12:03This means you saved your parents' company.
00:12:05Yes, yes.
00:12:06Keep your voice down, Emily.
00:12:08By the way, husband,
00:12:10tomorrow's our family banquet.
00:12:12You're coming with me.
00:12:14You're called.
00:12:15Hmm.
00:12:16And
00:12:16here's a hundred grand.
00:12:22I need you to get a gift for the banquet.
00:12:25Call it a wedding gift from my husband to the king's list.
00:12:29Got it?
00:12:30But boss,
00:12:31a hundred grand gift isn't going to make them forget you married a security guard.
00:12:36That's just how it works.
00:12:38I better get back to the office.
00:12:42Wow.
00:12:43You're right.
00:12:44The Kinsley family really is a snake pet.
00:12:49Yeah, it's me.
00:12:51Have the shadow of a month prepared you for the Kinsley thing.
00:12:54Oh.
00:12:55Thank you, babe.
00:12:56Mr. Conrad Kinsley.
00:13:07I heard you just closed the East Coast portail at the assistance of your father, Alistair.
00:13:12It's very impressive.
00:13:13It's just another small win for the family.
00:13:16Nothing to brag about.
00:13:38Kinsley.
00:13:38It's a many more years of good health and fortune.
00:13:41How's father?
00:13:42How's son?
00:13:44I've been, uh, praying for him.
00:13:46I have been planning on leaving the Kinsley legacy for years.
00:13:51He's fine.
00:13:53Just a little something.
00:13:57Keep the Kinsley family shiny.
00:14:00What is it?
00:14:01Jesus.
00:14:02That's the legendary revolver from Albus Presley's private collection.
00:14:06Plus, I heard it was coming for three million.
00:14:09That is a very generous gift.
00:14:11Three million?
00:14:12That's got to be worth at least five.
00:14:14Their family certainly knows how to make an entrance.
00:14:16A little bird told me that you think porting my niece, Victoria.
00:14:19It's too bad.
00:14:21Because Miss Victoria's given a heart to someone else.
00:14:25Has she?
00:14:26Who is that with Victoria?
00:14:50Her security guard.
00:14:52Wow, the mighty Kinsleys really have fallen since their grandfather, Alistair Kinsley, is sick.
00:15:00I heard they're barely hanging on under comrade's leadership.
00:15:04Tristan was supposed to bail them out.
00:15:06Guess Victoria's a lostie.
00:15:09Victoria, who is this?
00:15:11Uncle?
00:15:12This is Cole Slade.
00:15:14My husband.
00:15:15Husband?
00:15:16Trying to kill your grandfather?
00:15:20You're young.
00:15:21You know, throw tantrums, but marriage is not a game.
00:15:24This isn't a tantrum.
00:15:26And it's not about money, either.
00:15:28I love Cole, and that's why I chose him.
00:15:32Oh.
00:15:34Now that you're married, niece?
00:15:36Tristan, maybe our families can join together through my daughter, Serena.
00:15:42This is a family banquet.
00:15:43You didn't come out of the hand, did you?
00:15:47Tristan brought a five-mil revolver for Grandpa.
00:15:50Who bought you, Vicki?
00:15:51What did you bring?
00:15:53Oh, shoot.
00:15:54I only gave Cole a hundred grand.
00:15:56Tristan dropped five-mil?
00:15:58We're screwed.
00:15:59Of course he did.
00:16:08Cole, you actually brought something?
00:16:09Of course he brought a gift.
00:16:13Let's see what he's got.
00:16:15Perhaps Mr. Slade is a secret billionaire.
00:16:32What is this?
00:16:33Seriously?
00:16:33That's the gift?
00:16:36It looks like some toy from a dollar store's clearance bin.
00:16:43Victoria, nice election year, but this is a family banquet.
00:16:45You can't just phone it in.
00:16:47But a security guard is a security guard.
00:16:51Cole, I thought I'd give you a hundred grand.
00:16:54How are you sure?
00:16:57You don't want to know what that badge is actually worth.
00:17:00Go on.
00:17:01I'm listening.
00:17:03Let's see what kind of crap this security guard has been.
00:17:06Let me guess.
00:17:07My dear cousin-in-law is going to tell us that this is some sort of secret society emblem.
00:17:13Woo!
00:17:13Let the kids talk.
00:17:15This is the Shadow Alliance badge.
00:17:20Whoever holds it can move capital and access assets at will.
00:17:24Oh, my God.
00:17:27The Shadow Alliance holds sway over governments and the criminal underworld.
00:17:31They press it in the middle of the world.
00:17:33With this badge, the kings at least can finally get their hands on that trans-Pacific trade group permit they've been framing about for years.
00:17:40Wait.
00:17:42Did you just say the Shadow Alliance?
00:17:44You mean the infamous league of military veterans?
00:17:47Who are you?
00:17:52And what are you doing with the Shadow Alliance, is that?
00:17:54I'm the founder of the Shadow Alliance.
00:17:57The badge is my ID.
00:18:00It carries my authority.
00:18:02Is this Rent-A-Cop the founder of the Shadow Alliance?
00:18:06Don't make me laugh.
00:18:08Vicky?
00:18:09Your man got a PhD in bullshit or what?
00:18:12Yo, security guy, do you need us to call you a shrink?
00:18:18Hey, did you just walk in that hundred grand I gave you, and now you're sending these lies to cover it up?
00:18:23Of course not, Victoria.
00:18:25Everything I'm telling them is true.
00:18:28Dead house.
00:18:30Don't show your face around here again.
00:18:33Especially in front of your grandfather.
00:18:37This badge was a gift for Alistair.
00:18:40Given out of respect for Victoria.
00:18:43Now it's a shame one of you that can recognize value what it's from of you.
00:18:48But luckily, I brought back up.
00:18:53Victoria said her grandfather was a collector of Renaissance art.
00:18:57So I had my people send us over right away.
00:19:06The original.
00:19:08Mona Lisa.
00:19:10So what do you think?
00:19:12A little more for you, right?
00:19:15This can't be real.
00:19:17That painting is worth $10 billion.
00:19:23Mission accomplished.
00:19:27Wait, Boston, you just gave him a hundred grand?
00:19:30Where did the $10 billion come from?
00:19:32I have no idea.
00:19:34This is one of the nicest gifts you've ever received.
00:19:38Might actually get your grandfather out of bed.
00:19:41What's the point?
00:19:42You rang him off.
00:19:44Oh.
00:19:45Mr. Slade is a very generous man.
00:19:49What are you waiting for?
00:19:51To chase after him.
00:19:53Bring him back here so your grandfather can meet him.
00:19:55Having gold diggers as family is humiliating.
00:20:01Ten billion blown.
00:20:15I couldn't even get a decent meal out of me.
00:20:19Watching money-hungry jackasses.
00:20:21Couldn't even cover a burger.
00:20:27Really?
00:20:28A guy who could pull out $10 billion without blinking is eating this?
00:20:32Well, he's hanging out with someone who wouldn't even buy any of these.
00:20:38Get in.
00:20:39So, where are we going?
00:20:54Home.
00:20:57Well done, a little quick, Aubrey.
00:20:59I'm cooking.
00:21:01Just with your guide, thank you properly.
00:21:04Hold on.
00:21:05Okay.
00:21:06McCurry Kingsley.
00:21:08In the kitchen.
00:21:08Wow.
00:21:10Okay, you know what?
00:21:11I'm going to have to record this just so we can have it as part of our family history.
00:21:15Oh.
00:21:17Ugh, shut up.
00:21:18We'll go up.
00:21:23Excuse me, my parents' voice.
00:21:25Security's solid.
00:21:27Make yourself comfortable.
00:21:29I'm going to go change.
00:21:38How's the steak sound?
00:21:47How do you actually cook?
00:21:50I thought you just signed checks.
00:21:52There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:21:55That $10 billion.
00:21:57Where did it actually come from?
00:21:59Well, you gave it to me, remember?
00:22:07No, it was...
00:22:08Are you crazy?
00:22:16Security's solid, huh?
00:22:38How did you know this place was bugged?
00:22:43Occupational answer?
00:22:45Security guard's supposed to keep things secure, right?
00:22:47A security guard who throws around $10 billion like it's pocket change?
00:22:54I'll pay you back soon.
00:22:55Three days from now, the Shadow Alliance is supposed to be on the Big Golden Coast on the Naval Hotel.
00:23:01Do decide on the next headquarters.
00:23:11That'll put your family at the top of the list.
00:23:15Smoother goes for you, the faster you're getting the money back, right?
00:23:19You're telling me this little thing's that powerful?
00:23:23We'll see.
00:23:24Fine.
00:23:25I owe you.
00:23:28Twice.
00:23:29Yeah, yeah, the gift.
00:23:31And our marriage, which, by the way...
00:23:35What?
00:23:36Is a contract.
00:23:38So, we need rules.
00:23:42I'm listening.
00:23:44Rule number one, stay out of each other's love lives.
00:23:48Fair.
00:23:50Rule number two, my place isn't safe anymore.
00:23:53My grandpa and uncle just keep signing us, so...
00:23:55So, we act like the best couple.
00:24:01Luckily for you, I am really good at being here.
00:24:07Rule three.
00:24:11My bedroom is off limits.
00:24:13To everyone.
00:24:14But me.
00:24:19Especially.
00:24:21No kissing, no sex.
00:24:23Kissing, no sex.
00:24:25Yeah.
00:24:27They'll be the perfect couple.
00:24:29Not my problem.
00:24:30There's no age tonight.
00:24:42You're allergic.
00:24:44How did you know that?
00:24:48You're sobbing on me, too?
00:24:50Relax.
00:24:53Just break room gossip.
00:24:54That's all.
00:24:56Victoria Kingsley breaks down.
00:24:58Ah, it's when she has eight.
00:24:59What is that worth that?
00:25:00Nine bucks?
00:25:02My allergies are none of your business.
00:25:06Just a time, mate.
00:25:08General, be ready soon.
00:25:08That's fine.
00:25:10I don't know.
00:25:40It's real and still.
00:25:46Just like I thought.
00:26:10I thought I'm not kissing.
00:26:30I'm dead again.
00:26:32Why can't I resist him?
00:26:33I'm dead again.
00:27:04Now, about that accidental kissing thing.
00:27:07Shut up.
00:27:09Need a hand wiping?
00:27:11Call me that again and I'll knock you out in this frying pan.
00:27:14I see.
00:27:15I can't.
00:27:16It's like these two are getting along.
00:27:41Better than we expected.
00:27:44Dad, doesn't this seem off?
00:27:48That cool guy just casually drops ten billion, but he's working as a security guard?
00:27:54All the bugs are dead?
00:27:56Every single one.
00:27:58And whoever did it knows exactly what they were doing.
00:28:02Interesting.
00:28:04Our little niece and this red cop are just full of surprises.
00:28:07And you ran on the usual checks?
00:28:11Through all the contacts we have, still nothing.
00:28:15No bank accounts.
00:28:17No credit history.
00:28:19Not even a parking ticket.
00:28:21There's only three kinds of people in this world who stay this clean.
00:28:26Spies.
00:28:28The dead.
00:28:32And those which of us.
00:28:35So which one is he?
00:28:37Excuse him as you can't answer.
00:28:39Get out of my way.
00:28:40I'm so sorry, Mr. Keaton.
00:28:46So it was you.
00:28:49You planted the bugs.
00:28:52Victoria, did you just protect my brother's company?
00:28:55Protect it?
00:28:56You mean steal it from his only daughter?
00:28:59Enough!
00:29:04Victoria, who is this Cole?
00:29:06Some hotshot?
00:29:09Why can't we dig anything up on it?
00:29:12A hotshot?
00:29:14It's just our company's security guard.
00:29:18You really think we're going to fall for that?
00:29:21You're embarrassing our whole family.
00:29:25Explain it, Zendol, you know.
00:29:27There's only two options here.
00:29:29One, you funnel company funds.
00:29:32Two, you get some fakes.
00:29:42All of them.
00:29:47There's no ten billion dollars in your company accounts.
00:29:50So that only leaves one option.
00:29:52I guess they're all knockoffs.
00:29:55Knockoffs?
00:29:57Don't you even know how bad this makes our family look?
00:30:00I told you, Dad.
00:30:02She's always been a stain on this family.
00:30:06Stop taking assumptions.
00:30:07Just because you don't know who Cole is
00:30:09doesn't mean it gets to our fate.
00:30:11Shut up!
00:30:11The King's legacy is not yours to sell off the Semoretica.
00:30:14No, you shut up.
00:30:15Even if it gets to our fate,
00:30:16I would still never marry Tristan.
00:30:18Ever!
00:30:18Ever!
00:30:24Serena, from now on,
00:30:25I want you to spend more time with Tristan, man.
00:30:27The King's legacy needs to be
00:30:30the band family's support now more than ever.
00:30:35Dad?
00:30:36I'll give him a call.
00:30:43The band family has a real pull
00:30:45with the Shadow Alliance.
00:30:47It will secure their deal
00:30:48in three days' time
00:30:49with the band family's support.
00:30:51By our side.
00:30:51Three days from now,
00:30:56the Shadow Alliance
00:30:56is hosting the Big Golden Coast
00:30:58somewhere at the Maple Hotel
00:30:59to decide on the next big partnership.
00:31:04That'll put your family
00:31:05on the top of the list.
00:31:07The smoother goes for you,
00:31:08the faster I get the money back, right?
00:31:13The vans have the power
00:31:14to open the door.
00:31:16We just have to follow their lead
00:31:18and take our cut.
00:31:20Gloria, when everything is,
00:31:22I want you to resign.
00:31:24It's time to rethink
00:31:27who runs the family business.
00:31:30Dearest cousin,
00:31:33what can you do
00:31:34with this pile of junk
00:31:35for your rent-caught boyfriend?
00:31:37Burn it.
00:31:39Always.
00:31:41The King's in the house
00:31:42there's no place
00:31:44for a cheap print.
00:31:50No, wait.
00:31:52Wait, it's not...
00:31:53Wait!
00:32:03The King's in the room for me!
00:32:05No, stop!
00:32:05What are you doing?
00:32:06Is it real, Mona Lisa?
00:32:07Shh!
00:32:12No, stop!
00:32:15Stop!
00:32:16It's anywhere else!
00:32:30Stop!
00:32:31They were real!
00:32:32Oh, little princess
00:32:34living in your fairy tale.
00:32:39Let this be a warning to you.
00:32:41You'll regret this.
00:32:42No.
00:32:44You will regret this.
00:32:46Once I marry Tristan,
00:32:48you won't even be able
00:32:49to afford your rent-a-copped husband.
00:33:04You know,
00:33:05it takes a lot of guts
00:33:07for you to show up
00:33:07in my place like this.
00:33:09How did you self-filled?
00:33:22Still have my cousin
00:33:23on your mind?
00:33:24Hmm.
00:33:26You're miles above her.
00:33:27You know why the Van family
00:33:34is in LA?
00:33:37Because we do anything
00:33:39for the Shadow Alliance.
00:33:42Anything.
00:33:44That's something you and I
00:33:45have in common.
00:33:48If you can get my family
00:33:50into the Shadow Alliance,
00:33:51I may be willing to relieve
00:33:57some of your frustrations.
00:34:04Si.
00:34:05You're not
00:34:06in a position
00:34:08to negotiate.
00:34:10You're right.
00:34:18There are many positions
00:34:19we can negotiate in.
00:34:23Which one's your favorite?
00:34:28The one where you're
00:34:29arming these?
00:34:33Now we're talking.
00:34:34Since I realized
00:34:58it's your talents,
00:35:00I believe I can be the king's
00:35:02lead to the summer.
00:35:03Come on, Mr. Van.
00:35:06I knew you would
00:35:06come to your senses.
00:35:08A man of your talents?
00:35:11Nothing's impossible.
00:35:12You haven't heard
00:35:13the cost yet.
00:35:16You have a lot
00:35:17of work
00:35:18to do.
00:35:22To earn
00:35:22the privilege of an invite.
00:35:26That was only a taste
00:35:28of what I'm capable of.
00:35:30Well, I guess I had
00:35:31to find out that
00:35:32later.
00:35:34But
00:35:35now
00:35:36I want something
00:35:37from Kings and Tech.
00:35:40Victoria's Company
00:35:41has been falling apart
00:35:43ever since her parents died.
00:35:45I'm serious.
00:35:47If it didn't have
00:35:48the king's name on it,
00:35:50nobody in my family
00:35:51would even care about it.
00:35:52That's not your problem.
00:35:53Do what I say
00:35:57or you'll be left
00:35:59with nothing.
00:36:02All right.
00:36:04Good thing we still have
00:36:05an insider in her company.
00:36:09That's better.
00:36:10Three days
00:36:22into the summit.
00:36:23I have to lock
00:36:24priority access.
00:36:29Power on it?
00:36:30Paul?
00:36:54Mike?
00:36:56Anybody?
00:36:57Anybody?
00:37:00who's there?
00:37:18I'm just
00:37:19saying, please.
00:37:22Who's there?
00:37:24Who's there?
00:37:28Who's there?
00:37:28Who's there?
00:37:29Just here.
00:37:52Oh my gosh.
00:37:56Check the apartment now.
00:37:59Who are you?
00:38:01You really can't tell.
00:38:03It's you?
00:38:12Emily!
00:38:13It's you?
00:38:14Surprise.
00:38:16Emily, since the day you've joined this company,
00:38:18vacations, bonuses, phrases, you've had everything.
00:38:22Why did you turn your back on?
00:38:24Quit whining.
00:38:26You've been good to me, Victoria.
00:38:28But the Vann family is offering more.
00:38:32Why wouldn't I take it?
00:38:40I am your employee, not your slave.
00:38:44I've got a better deal now, and you should be happy for me.
00:38:48Emily, you've let my blind you.
00:38:51Shut up!
00:38:53You're taking me to the tech department now!
00:38:58Move it!
00:39:02Finally!
00:39:15Tristan, get for the woods!
00:39:17Not so fast.
00:39:20What's that supposed to mean?
00:39:21This tech is split into three parts.
00:39:24You've only got one of them.
00:39:26Where's the rest?
00:39:27Tell me you wish.
00:39:32They're dying!
00:39:41Excuse me, Floyd.
00:39:43I've got a lot of mistakes.
00:39:45But I'm not going to be through anymore.
00:39:46Aaaaah!
00:39:48I've got one of them.
00:40:06Bye.
00:40:07Never mind.
00:40:08Bye.
00:40:08Bye.
00:40:09Bye.
00:40:10Bye.
00:40:10Bye.
00:40:12Bye.
00:40:13Bye.
00:40:14Bye.
00:40:14Bye.
00:40:15Bye.
00:40:15Bye.
00:40:16Yeah, I'm fine.
00:40:20I just never thought anyone went back to set me like that.
00:40:24It's just an after anyway.
00:40:27That's worth going this far.
00:40:29The quantum chip tech.
00:40:32My parents' last research.
00:40:35From the sham engagement to buying off my uncle, every move led to this.
00:40:40I just never thought my own assistant would sell me out.
00:40:44Say the word and I'll make my despair.
00:40:48No, it's fine.
00:40:51I'll figure something out.
00:40:52How?
00:40:53As long as you land new deals, you won't have any hold over us.
00:41:05Motherfucker!
00:41:09It's cold again! He's fucking up!
00:41:13No fucking mutt!
00:41:16Easy, babe.
00:41:18I know how to do it, Cole.
00:41:20I have an idea.
00:41:22Oh, yeah?
00:41:24What?
00:41:26No matter how tough you are,
00:41:30if a woman sucks your interests,
00:41:33you're done for.
00:41:35I like that.
00:41:37I like that, but I...
00:41:38Who is this?
00:41:57Come on, Cole.
00:41:59Don't be so mean.
00:42:01I'm just trying to help.
00:42:02Listen,
00:42:03the Van family's been looking into Victoria.
00:42:06What's your point?
00:42:08All right, all right.
00:42:10My point is,
00:42:11they've got a file on Victoria's company.
00:42:14And if it leaks,
00:42:15she's screwed.
00:42:17Who the hell are you?
00:42:19What do you want?
00:42:20Relax.
00:42:21I'm not trying to threaten you.
00:42:22Just meet me at the bar tonight,
00:42:258 o'clock.
00:42:26And maybe,
00:42:27I'll take care of this for you.
00:42:35Cole,
00:42:36what's going on, Beth?
00:42:37I've got to head out for a minute.
00:42:39Keep an eye on Victoria.
00:42:40If anything happens,
00:42:42call me.
00:42:42Oh, my God.
00:42:44Oh, my God.
00:43:14I've got to head out for a minute.
00:43:15I've got to head out for a minute.
00:43:17I'll do something.
00:43:19You want to have some fun?
00:43:22I don't believe.
00:43:27It's so crazy.
00:43:28I'm sorry.
00:43:34Oh.
00:43:44Oh.
00:43:49Oh.
00:44:01Oh.
00:44:05Oh.
00:44:05Oh.
00:44:06Oh.
00:44:07Oh.
00:44:11Oh.
00:44:12You're lucky I don't hit on me.
00:44:33What if you keep pushing me?
00:44:36I will.
00:44:39Just nothing for a drink.
00:44:45For Victoria and her company.
00:44:50I knew that day would get you back.
00:45:00Cut the crap.
00:45:02You're not getting anywhere near Victoria.
00:45:04I'm not gonna let that happen.
00:45:07I'm not drinking.
00:45:09And then...
00:45:12I'll tell you what my secrets.
00:45:15Call me.
00:45:16Tell me now.
00:45:25Tell me now.
00:45:43It's my own special hunt.
00:46:01It's an african.
00:46:01Yeah.
00:46:06You got two options.
00:46:09One, you hand me Victoria's research and I give you the name.
00:46:13Two, we skip the business.
00:46:20We have a little bit of fun.
00:46:22And she can find out the message right away.
00:46:24No, no, don't move.
00:46:27Don't move.
00:46:37Thanks for watching with me, my husband.
00:46:40Who's coming home with me?
00:46:41Oh, no.
00:46:42Sweetheart, so he's really smiling.
00:46:47It's okay.
00:46:49Nothing happened to us.
00:46:50I know.
00:46:52You have better taste than us.
00:46:54Excuse me?
00:46:57Come on, Cole.
00:46:58Let's go.
00:46:58It's too hot.
00:47:09I can't breathe.
00:47:20Cole Slade.
00:47:22Zero number zero nine two four one four.
00:47:27My brothers in the room is just one to jail.
00:47:32Who are you?
00:47:38Cole!
00:47:39Cole!
00:47:39Did you just kiss me?
00:47:57Cole!
00:47:58Did you just kiss me?
00:48:01How the hell did I end up here?
00:48:26Cole!
00:48:26Cole!
00:48:28Cole!
00:48:28Cole!
00:48:28Good morning.
00:48:52Morning.
00:48:56Morning.
00:48:58Last night we, um...
00:49:03Nope.
00:49:06Nothing happens.
00:49:13You seem almost happy about that.
00:49:16Oh.
00:49:17You were in the military?
00:49:24No.
00:49:25No.
00:49:26What are you looking at?
00:49:34Profile in the Shadowlands' new U.S. Director.
00:49:38What?
00:49:39It's a woman.
00:49:41It's a woman.
00:49:43I know Amber's a woman.
00:49:45How did you know her name is Amber?
00:49:50Why are you still digging into the Shadowlands?
00:49:54Well, Amber is picking a new partner tonight.
00:49:59It's all right.
00:50:00It'll be the Vann family.
00:50:01If that happens, they'll take over my parents' ownership tech.
00:50:05So you want to use the Shadowlands to protect them?
00:50:09The problem is, I can't even get an invite.
00:50:13Doesn't your family already have one?
00:50:16Yeah, but they're not taking me.
00:50:18Why?
00:50:19Why?
00:50:20I thought I gave your grandpa that painting.
00:50:23They...
00:50:24Burned it.
00:50:26Just that was a knockoff.
00:50:28I'll pay you back.
00:50:31If I get you, Daddy.
00:50:36Who forgot about that deal in there?
00:50:55Coming in?
00:50:59Nothing.
00:51:01If you can really give me that invite, I'll do anything you want.
00:51:20I just carried that bash with you.
00:51:23I'll take care of this.
00:51:26Go on ahead.
00:51:34You're not coming in with me?
00:51:38I'll catch up.
00:51:39Okay.
00:51:40Give me an invite to this room.
00:51:53You're the best one you got.
00:52:07Now...
00:52:08It already kicked out two execs from the power of the invites.
00:52:09If the inn...
00:52:10Hey, hey.
00:52:11Don't worry.
00:52:12Why are you getting in?
00:52:13They're also walking out with you.
00:52:15How are you getting in?
00:52:17You're also walking out with you.
00:52:20Yeah, right.
00:52:21If I can just get the Shadow Alliance to protect me and keep my parents' research safe, that's all I need.
00:52:27Victoria, you have to trust me.
00:52:30Say hi.
00:52:32Yeah, she called.
00:52:43Aw, come on, Cole.
00:52:45Oh, since you missed me, I missed you so much.
00:52:48Say hi.
00:52:49I've got to knock it off.
00:52:51I'm just friends with your dad.
00:52:53That's it.
00:52:54Who cares?
00:52:56I like you, and I'm not letting go.
00:53:02Victoria.
00:53:09Miss Cross.
00:53:11My wife does not like us.
00:53:15Now.
00:53:17The invite.
00:53:18Here.
00:53:20The Shadow Alliance's most exclusive invites.
00:53:24Thanks.
00:53:25Hold up.
00:53:26You're really going to give out this invite?
00:53:28This invite is worth a fortune.
00:53:31No one else has ever gotten one.
00:53:32This is the first and the only.
00:53:36I know.
00:53:38But it's for my wife.
00:53:39So, sit down for my life here.
00:53:48I've got to see what kind of woman has that Cole all hung up.
00:53:53Victoria.
00:53:54Wait.
00:53:55Look, she's just a friend.
00:53:57That's all.
00:53:58Don't touch me.
00:53:59Go away.
00:53:59Come.
00:54:01Trust me.
00:54:16She's just a friend.
00:54:18She came to drop off the invite.
00:54:21That's all.
00:54:22Yeah, right.
00:54:24Mr. Slade's got a girl on the left, another on the right.
00:54:28Looks like you're having the time of your life.
00:54:34You feel that?
00:54:36It all looks for you.
00:54:40She's you.
00:54:41The end, right?
00:54:53Yeah.
00:54:54I saw this last weekend.
00:54:57Is that it?
00:54:59I'll deal with you when we get home.
00:55:01I'll deal with you when we get home.
00:55:06Tristan's cousin is the host tonight.
00:55:31Without him, our family wouldn't have even made it to an event like this.
00:55:35We do owe a lot to Tristan.
00:55:38And to you.
00:55:39You're the reason he's helping us.
00:55:41Oh, Grandpa.
00:55:42So at least I can do.
00:55:44You know, Victoria isn't your only granddaughter.
00:55:49Well, after the summer, I'm going to take Victoria's title and positions away.
00:55:54She's not fit to be the CEO.
00:56:00Victoria.
00:56:01I told you Mary Ranger, that's optional.
00:56:04But you're even listening.
00:56:06Once Serena takes over as CEO, your parents' research will still end up in my hands.
00:56:12And when that day comes, you'll be mine.
00:56:15Just something to use, however I want.
00:56:22Is it that Victorian call?
00:56:24What the hell are they doing here?
00:56:37Mr. Kingston.
00:56:40Grandpa?
00:56:42Victoria.
00:56:43Coming in under Tristan's name is one thing.
00:56:45But to bring this?
00:56:47This guy who tried to pass off a fake?
00:56:49I didn't think you'd seek this load.
00:56:52Grandpa, I don't understand.
00:56:54I'm still the CEO of our family company, which means I have every right to be here.
00:57:00And it's my call to bring whoever I want.
00:57:02I'm sure if you got that invite yourself, but you're only here because of Serena and Tristan.
00:57:09Showing up with this security guard husband of yours is not helping at all.
00:57:15I'm here because I got the invite myself.
00:57:18Serena and Tristan had nothing to do with it.
00:57:20Oh, come on, Vicky.
00:57:22This is a business event?
00:57:25Not a beauty pageant.
00:57:27No one's looking for eye candy.
00:57:29If I was here, I'd walk out of here right now.
00:57:34You come in over here, trying to steal a spotlight is embarrassing.
00:57:40Why don't you take a good look?
00:57:42You really think you got that on your own?
00:57:48More like a host handing it off because you're still riding on Tristan's coattails.
00:57:54That's weird.
00:57:56I haven't told the host a letter.
00:57:59There's only one man's possible.
00:58:02It's three.
00:58:02It's three.
00:58:12Can you believe it?
00:58:14Someone actually faked a shadow of a lion tonight.
00:58:18That's insane.
00:58:20If people were to find out the entire Kingsley Empire died.
00:58:24No, you've got it wrong.
00:58:26It doesn't matter if this invite is real or good.
00:58:32That's not your call to me.
00:58:34Shut up!
00:58:35Are you trying to drag this family down?
00:58:38Victoria, you need to get this useless man out of here!
00:58:42Now!
00:58:44Becky!
00:58:46What would you fund a grandpa?
00:58:47Apologize now!
00:58:49Could this invite actually be fake?
00:58:51Paul, let's go.
00:58:54Wait.
00:58:55Why are you guys running?
00:58:58You were so confident that invite was real.
00:59:03Well, if my invite is fake...
00:59:07This entire event is a sham and...
00:59:10We can go home.
00:59:12Prove it.
00:59:14Open it up.
00:59:16And show us.
00:59:19Yeah.
00:59:19Yeah.
00:59:20Let us see it.
00:59:21Open it up!
00:59:21Open it up!
00:59:22Open it up!
00:59:23Open it up!
00:59:23Open it up!
00:59:24Open it up!
00:59:25Open it up!
00:59:26Open it up!
00:59:27Open it up!
00:59:28Come on, bud.
00:59:28Stop wasting everybody's time.
00:59:30Now you are absolutely sure this invite is fake.
00:59:31Damn right.
00:59:32Come on, bud.
00:59:33Stop wasting everybody's time.
00:59:36Now you are absolutely sure this invite is fake.
00:59:45Damn right.
00:59:46You know what?
00:59:48Let's make it interesting.
00:59:49If that invite is force, I'll break your leg.
00:59:55See, end of the quantum ship.
00:59:58And if it's real.
00:59:59I'll kneel down and kiss your shoes.
01:00:05I'll get the hell out of here.
01:00:08Yeah.
01:00:08You're called that an invitation?
01:00:26You have got to be kidding me.
01:00:33You see this?
01:00:34This is the sloppiest fake I've ever seen.
01:00:39The Snuggies.
01:00:41Shadow Alliance invites come in black, for standard, and blue, for VIPs.
01:00:48Vicki, if you're going to fake one, at least do your research first.
01:00:54Grandpa was right.
01:00:56You don't deserve to lead the Kingsley family.
01:01:02Victoria, you have brought this on yourself.
01:01:04You are turning this family into a complete joke.
01:01:08Who said it's fake?
01:01:10God, do crap.
01:01:12Like I said, this is Shadow Alliance's most exclusive to me.
01:01:17Only ones have ever been sent out since then, someone found it.
01:01:21Any sense they've got to see you from here.
01:01:24That doesn't mean it's fake.
01:01:27Enough, Cole.
01:01:29Everyone here doesn't believe a word you say.
01:01:32I'm about to make you regret.
01:01:34I'm running your mouth.
01:01:35Grab him.
01:01:38I'll break his leg myself.
01:01:39I'll break his leg myself.
01:01:39That is the Lester Duvall.
01:02:01He is from the Shadow Alliance.
01:02:03I heard he handles everything, all the Shadow Alliance's outside business.
01:02:09I can't believe you're actually getting to see him a person.
01:02:12If I could work with him, I'd be on Wall Street in no time.
01:02:15You wish.
01:02:17The Shadow Alliance is definitely going to Pinterest and has a new partner for sure.
01:02:21The Kingsley family is already hanging on them.
01:02:23Well, just soon.
01:02:25Sounds like you're going to need to sell it tonight.
01:02:28Look at you, Vicky.
01:02:30Even with a fake invite, you still get to meet Mr. Duvall.
01:02:32Once you become the Shadow Alliance's new leader, you'll introduce me and Mr. Duvall, right?
01:02:39Of course.
01:02:40My family is coming.
01:02:43Oh, my God.
01:02:44Don't worry.
01:02:45I got it.
01:02:46But from now on, Serena Kingsley runs the family couple.
01:02:53Yes.
01:02:54Of course.
01:02:55Of course.
01:02:56Don't worry.
01:02:58You're going to be the Shadow Alliance's new partner.
01:03:02Please change me.
01:03:04You do.
01:03:05We'll see you all more about this.
01:03:10Mr. Duvall, this is Tristan Vann, heir to the Vann's richest family in the state.
01:03:16And he's my cousin.
01:03:18Tonight I'm going to meet you, Mr. Duvall.
01:03:23This is Serena Kingsley, the new appointed CEO of the Kingsley Company.
01:03:29Mr. Duvall, it's a pleasure.
01:03:33Tristan, Mr. Duvall is picking the Shadow Alliance's new partner tonight.
01:03:38Don't mess up.
01:03:40Guys, Mr. Duvall, if you pick me, I will not let the Shadow Alliance down.
01:03:46Which one of them did Ms. Cross tell me to look at you?
01:03:52Didn't you say Victoria would be the new partner in the Shadow Alliance?
01:03:56Looks like she couldn't even get a nod from Mr. Duvall.
01:03:59He's probably just scared Mr. Duvall's going to find out the end by the state.
01:04:05That's why he's keeping his mouth shut.
01:04:07The event's just started.
01:04:12Nothing knows yet that the Shadow Alliance is going to be.
01:04:16Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Shadow Alliance Summit.
01:04:20And please welcome Mr. Lester Duvall from the Shadow Alliance.
01:04:24Tonight's agenda is simple.
01:04:32Mr. Duvall will be selecting the Shadow Alliance's new partner
01:04:35and donating $50 billion to the Quantum Ship Research.
01:04:43This is a shot.
01:04:44If you would like to be considered, step forward now.
01:04:50Get back there.
01:04:53The Vann family?
01:04:55We're the partner of the Shadow Alliance.
01:04:57Mr. Duvall, the Vanns are, frankly, the strongest candidate.
01:05:04I stopped you soon.
01:05:06Oh crap!
01:05:07If there are no other candidates,
01:05:10I'll now announce the Shadow Alliance's new partner...
01:05:13Hyman!
01:05:16I want that partnership, too.
01:05:21Victoria, stop it!
01:05:23Tristan is the Shadow Alliance's new partner.
01:05:25Quit embarrassing us!
01:05:27Vicky, I know you want the spotlight,
01:05:30but don't embarrass our family or your ego.
01:05:33Well, aren't you a Kingsley, too?
01:05:38Mr. Duvall, you can forget about her.
01:05:40Serena is our new CEO.
01:05:42That is all you need to know.
01:05:44Victoria never said she wants to become
01:05:46the Shadow Alliance's partner
01:05:47as part of the Kingsley family.
01:05:49And what does that mean?
01:05:51She's starting her own company.
01:05:53Under her name.
01:05:56Are you serious?
01:05:58A shell company partnering with the Shadow Alliance?
01:06:01Do you think everyone's dumb enough to believe, Vax?
01:06:04You got in here on a fake invite.
01:06:06Don't push your luck.
01:06:08Someone forged the Shadow Alliance's invite.
01:06:16You know,
01:06:17since the Shadow Alliance started,
01:06:20there were two people
01:06:21that forged an invite.
01:06:24And they
01:06:25paid the price.
01:06:27They didn't think I'll see such a fool today.
01:06:32What's the matter?
01:06:33Didn't they Mr. Duvall
01:06:34would show up in person?
01:06:36Why not show them these fake invites?
01:06:41Your cover's blown.
01:06:43And you're done.
01:06:45Cool.
01:06:48Oh, wait.
01:06:51Mr. Duvall,
01:06:52here it is.
01:06:53That's
01:06:56the most exclusive
01:06:57invite to the summit.
01:06:59This is the cheapest fake
01:07:01I've ever seen.
01:07:02And an outright insult
01:07:04to you.
01:07:05Let me take this garbage out for you.
01:07:09Oh!
01:07:09Oh!
01:07:10Oh!
01:07:10Oh my gosh!
01:07:16Mr. Paul,
01:07:17why are you...
01:07:18That's right.
01:07:19This really is the Shadow Alliance's
01:07:21most exclusive invite.
01:07:24It's all just a fake.
01:07:25Shut up!
01:07:26Oh my God.
01:07:30Mr. Slade,
01:07:32this is the Shadow Alliance's
01:07:34exclusive invitation.
01:07:36You have access to all our properties.
01:07:38No interference.
01:07:40What?
01:07:41He doesn't have the authority
01:07:41to get someone like this?
01:07:43Are you going to question
01:07:44my judgment?
01:07:46Not
01:07:47now.
01:07:48Focus on securing
01:07:50the partnership first.
01:07:51We'll do the best
01:07:52once this is over.
01:07:56Vicki,
01:07:57partnerships run on resources.
01:08:00Without the Kingsley's,
01:08:02what can you...
01:08:03If you are
01:08:06found and determined
01:08:08to start your own
01:08:09company,
01:08:10the Kingsley family
01:08:11will give you
01:08:12nothing.
01:08:15Sure.
01:08:16Victoria's company is new.
01:08:18doesn't have all the resources
01:08:19it needs yet.
01:08:21We have something
01:08:21you can't
01:08:22sing out to.
01:08:26If you make Victoria
01:08:27your new partner,
01:08:29we're going to make
01:08:29someone be really happy.
01:08:31Are you nuts?
01:08:32$50 billion
01:08:33to make
01:08:34one person happy?
01:08:35Do you think
01:08:36the Shadow Alliance
01:08:37is that stupid
01:08:38to believe that?
01:08:40Victoria,
01:08:40shut him up
01:08:41before he drags
01:08:42us all down.
01:08:43Victoria,
01:08:44get him out of here
01:08:45now!
01:08:46exactly who
01:08:47is going to be happy.
01:08:50Well, you're not here
01:08:51to make money
01:08:52or do business.
01:08:54Would you share
01:08:55a police?
01:08:57Enough!
01:08:58Take this
01:08:59for your funeral!
01:09:01Get him out of here!
01:09:02All you have to do
01:09:02is take Victoria
01:09:03and you will get
01:09:05exactly
01:09:06what you want.
01:09:09Trust me.
01:09:10the badge
01:09:12are here.
01:09:14Here is that.
01:09:22Hold it!
01:09:27Victoria,
01:09:28if this family
01:09:29takes a hit,
01:09:30we're going to
01:09:30sever ties with you
01:09:31for good.
01:09:32Oh,
01:09:33Mr. DeVall's
01:09:34coming right for you.
01:09:35Looks pretty pissed,
01:09:37too.
01:09:38Miss Kansas,
01:09:39I don't have that
01:09:41bash books.
01:09:50That,
01:09:51that's it.
01:09:52It's the real thing.
01:09:54Miss Gainsley,
01:09:55do you intend
01:09:56to start a new company
01:09:57and form a partnership
01:09:58with the Shadow Alliance?
01:10:00Mr. DeVall,
01:10:01no need to get upset.
01:10:02I'll get these two
01:10:03out of here.
01:10:04What's the holdup?
01:10:05Move it!
01:10:05Do you think
01:10:10you can just
01:10:10interrupt me?
01:10:13You see this?
01:10:14I'm in hot water
01:10:14because you two
01:10:15pissed them off.
01:10:17When the summer
01:10:17is over,
01:10:18you two are getting
01:10:19with coming to me.
01:10:20Don't worry,
01:10:20Chester.
01:10:21The moment we
01:10:22step out of this room,
01:10:23Victoria is no longer
01:10:24a member of this
01:10:25staff.
01:10:27Ladies and gentlemen,
01:10:29the Shadow Alliance
01:10:29has made a decision.
01:10:32Our new partner
01:10:33is...
01:10:38Once you land
01:10:40Shadow Alliance,
01:10:41taking down
01:10:42the Trojan Cole
01:10:43is going to be
01:10:43child's play.
01:10:46The new partner
01:10:47of the Shadow Alliance
01:10:49is...
01:10:51Miss Victoria,
01:10:54Kingsley.
01:10:59Miss Hanksley,
01:11:01please have your
01:11:01paperwork ready
01:11:02by tomorrow.
01:11:03Now I'm lying
01:11:04inside it myself.
01:11:06No way!
01:11:08How does it hurt?
01:11:11This has to all
01:11:12be about training.
01:11:14If they take
01:11:14any dollars
01:11:15that's yours,
01:11:16you can use it
01:11:17as you see things.
01:11:18And if you need
01:11:19any resources
01:11:20from now on,
01:11:21give the word
01:11:22and I'll make it happen.
01:11:24What is the deal
01:11:25with Victoria?
01:11:27I mean,
01:11:27who is she?
01:11:29The Shadow Alliance
01:11:29doesn't just partner
01:11:30with made-up people.
01:11:32That deal
01:11:33is basically
01:11:34free money.
01:11:36Cole said
01:11:36that Lester
01:11:37was just trying
01:11:38to make people
01:11:39happy, right?
01:11:41Who do you think
01:11:42the elephant
01:11:42in the room is?
01:11:43He looked like
01:11:44a switch
01:11:45deciding he's
01:11:45not a bachelor.
01:11:47He was always
01:11:48doing the partnership
01:11:49to Tristan.
01:11:53No!
01:11:54Madness is impossible!
01:11:57I never lose!
01:11:59Cole,
01:12:00am I dreaming?
01:12:03All right,
01:12:03sonny.
01:12:05Carry that badge.
01:12:06I'll take you.
01:12:07Period.
01:12:09But,
01:12:1050 billion dollars?
01:12:13All with one
01:12:13tiny badge?
01:12:15Miss Gainsley,
01:12:17I look forward
01:12:17to working with you.
01:12:19Have your paperwork
01:12:20ready by tomorrow?
01:12:20pop and buy
01:12:22to sign it.
01:12:23If you need anything
01:12:23in the meantime,
01:12:24say the word
01:12:25and I'll make it happen.
01:12:26You're serious?
01:12:28All of this
01:12:29is real?
01:12:29Of course it's not real!
01:12:31Wake up!
01:12:32He only picked you
01:12:33because he assumed
01:12:34you were
01:12:34one of the kings
01:12:36and family!
01:12:37Mr. Valsh,
01:12:38she's just a pretty face.
01:12:41She is unfit
01:12:42to partner
01:12:43with the Shadowlands.
01:12:44Okay?
01:12:44She has no resources!
01:12:46Mr. Deval,
01:12:47if we're
01:12:49talking about
01:12:50power
01:12:51and influence,
01:12:53Tristan is
01:12:54the only
01:12:54logical choice.
01:12:56That's right,
01:12:58Victoria,
01:12:59as of today,
01:13:00you are no longer
01:13:01a member of this family.
01:13:03Without the kingsley name,
01:13:04you have
01:13:05absolutely nothing
01:13:06to offer
01:13:07the Shadow Alliance!
01:13:14You kingsley sure
01:13:15you want to
01:13:16cut Victoria loose?
01:13:21That's that
01:13:22friend of yours.
01:13:24What's she doing here?
01:13:25I almost thought
01:13:26she was
01:13:27someone important,
01:13:28but if she's
01:13:29Colstrand,
01:13:30she probably
01:13:30doesn't go around.
01:13:31Keep talking like that,
01:13:33and the band
01:13:33is going to be
01:13:34six feet under
01:13:35by midnight.
01:13:39Go on,
01:13:40Mr.
01:13:40Well,
01:13:40let's distinguish
01:13:41Mr. Van
01:13:42who I am.
01:13:44Oh!
01:13:45Oh!
01:13:45Oh!
01:13:46Oh!
01:13:46Oh, God!
01:13:48This is
01:13:49Miss Amber
01:13:49Cross,
01:13:50the U.S.
01:13:51Director
01:13:51of the Shadowlands.
01:13:54And if I
01:13:54remember,
01:13:55you just
01:13:56referred to
01:13:57Miss Cross
01:13:58as a
01:13:59photo rat.
01:14:00I didn't know
01:14:00who she was.
01:14:01Oh!
01:14:01Mr. Ball,
01:14:02please!
01:14:03Tristan's just
01:14:04young Hickory.
01:14:05Come on,
01:14:06give him another
01:14:07chance to me.
01:14:08Prove himself.
01:14:10What the fuck,
01:14:11man?
01:14:11This is my
01:14:13cover.
01:14:14I'm the one
01:14:15who wants it.
01:14:16No one comes in here
01:14:17and pushes me around.
01:14:20Thank you so much.
01:14:22You hear me?
01:14:23If all you had done
01:14:25was cross the Shadowlands,
01:14:27I may have given you
01:14:28a free pass.
01:14:29But what's really
01:14:30unforgettable
01:14:31is that you disrespected
01:14:33Mr. Korya Kingsley,
01:14:34the woman with the badge.
01:14:36Cole,
01:14:38what is this?
01:14:40Even Amber's
01:14:41acting like
01:14:41the most valuable
01:14:42thing in the world.
01:14:44Yeah,
01:14:44it doesn't seem bad
01:14:45Cole tried to give you
01:14:47at the family dinner.
01:14:49No way that thing
01:14:50actually has
01:14:51any real pull.
01:14:52Well,
01:14:52I tried to tell you.
01:14:53this badge
01:14:55could single-handedly
01:14:56make your family
01:14:57crisis disappear
01:14:58and turn you
01:15:00into financial giants.
01:15:02You kingsley
01:15:03lit
01:15:04the golden secret
01:15:05on fire.
01:15:08Seeing this badge
01:15:10is seeing
01:15:11the owner.
01:15:12No one disrespects you.
01:15:15No one.
01:15:16Forget 50 million.
01:15:18Make it 100.
01:15:19200.
01:15:19Hell,
01:15:20make it the entire
01:15:21Shadow Alliance.
01:15:21If it was the badge
01:15:23owner's orders,
01:15:24we'd have to give it over.
01:15:25No questions asked.
01:15:27Cobalt's a pluffy.
01:15:28That means
01:15:29that was the actual
01:15:30Mona Lisa.
01:15:32Oh my God.
01:15:34I've crushed her
01:15:34for trying to
01:15:35finally forge you
