Plot of Understated Guardian King
"Retired special forces soldier Cole Slade—codename “Reaper”—goes into hiding as a security guard to fulfill his fallen comrade Alexander’s last wish: protect his younger sister, Victoria. On Victoria’s wedding day, the groom runs away, the guests vanish, and a carefully planned corporate conspiracy comes to light. When the proud Victoria forces Cole into a fake marriage, they’re pushed into an uneasy alliance against their sworn enemy, Tristan—an ambitious man set on taking over the Kingsley family’s tech empire. As Cole’s lethal battlefield instincts resurface—from a bloody fight in the church to displays of overwhelming power at high-society banquets—they face not only Tristan’s deadly retaliation, but also the shocking truth that Victoria’s uncle, Conrad, is the mastermind. When a bloodstained dog tag reveals what really happened to Alexander, Cole must use the most extreme measures to protect this marriage—born from a lie—through both corporate warfare and gunfire."

Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Alex! Alex! Man down! We have a man down! We need backup now!
00:00:10Cole, you guys are surrounded, man. Let's get out of here. Looks like you won the bet.
00:00:17Alright, we're getting out of here together.
00:00:21Take this.
00:00:23You are the best of the best.
00:00:25Promise me, get back home.
00:00:30To protect my sister, Victoria.
00:00:33The Kingsley family is a snake pit. You have to protect her.
00:00:37There's an honor serving with you.
00:00:45Alex!
00:00:52Alex saved my life that day, and I never looked back since.
00:00:56I left the bloodshed behind and built the Shadow Alliance.
00:00:59The country's largest veterans network.
00:01:01The Shadow Alliance quickly rose to power, feared, 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.
00:01:14Keeping one promise to a fallen friend.
00:01:16To protect Victoria.
00:01:17To protect Victoria.
00:01:18To protect Victoria.
00:01:26Good morning, boss.
00:01:40Good morning, boss.
00:01:56After Victoria gets married today, my job is done, no more hiding my identity.
00:02:04Yo Cole, looking sharp as ever.
00:02:06You think we'll get a slice of that wedding cake?
00:02:08I heard Mrs. Kingsley is marrying some rich bastard with trust fund money.
00:02:12At least they can do what's giving us some good food and booze.
00:02:16Less talk.
00:02:17More work.
00:02:18What work?
00:02:19It's not our fault they sent us to do some patrol to some empty church.
00:02:23Look around, man.
00:02:24Not a soul in sight.
00:02:27Even the stray cats around here have better things to do.
00:02:32Now take that back.
00:02:34Our bride's rolling up.
00:02:35Showtime, baby.
00:02:37Let's get the speeches.
00:02:49No pictures.
00:02:50No champagne tower.
00:02:51I want this wrapped up in 30 minutes.
00:03:06Um, boss?
00:03:08Nobody's here.
00:03:10Not even the groom.
00:03:12Where is everyone?
00:03:14I just got word.
00:03:16The groom's backed out.
00:03:18He said...
00:03:19Said what?
00:03:21He said that if you're the one that Tristan Vann wants, no man in the city will dare to marry you.
00:03:28Tell Tristan to leave me the hell alone.
00:03:31That idiot doesn't get to decide how I live my life.
00:03:34Boss, the deadline for your marriage is coming up.
00:03:37If you don't get married soon, then they'll...
00:03:39Take back my parents' company, right?
00:03:42My parents might be dead.
00:03:44And my brother might have gone missing.
00:03:46But no one's touching our family business.
00:03:48Congratulations on the wedding, Miss Kingsley.
00:04:04Who are you?
00:04:05Cole Slade.
00:04:06You married?
00:04:07No.
00:04:08Girlfriend?
00:04:09Also no.
00:04:10Good.
00:04:11Then you can marry me.
00:04:22Sorry, no can do.
00:04:26It's purely transactional.
00:04:28I'll pay you a salary for every month that you're my husband.
00:04:3120k.
00:04:32How does that sound?
00:04:34After a year, we can get divorced.
00:04:36Still no.
00:04:38Do you know who I am?
00:04:41I'm Victoria Kingsley.
00:04:43CEO of Kingsley Tech.
00:04:48Fine.
00:04:49Name your price.
00:04:50I know who you are, Miss Kingsley.
00:04:52That's exactly why I can't marry you.
00:04:54You're the sister of my best friend.
00:04:56Someone I swore to protect.
00:04:58Not everything is about me.
00:04:59Seriously?
00:05:00You're a goddamn security guard.
00:05:02You have no right to turn down my boss.
00:05:04No, no.
00:05:05It's fine.
00:05:08I'll handle this.
00:05:09You try to put out the fires with my family.
00:05:30Tristan Vann, Kingsley's arch nemesis.
00:05:34What is he doing here?
00:05:39What is he doing here?
00:05:49Move the car, dog.
00:05:55Alex, I can't do this anymore.
00:05:59Where are you?
00:06:01Where are you?
00:06:04Oh, Vicky.
00:06:05I heard you were in the market for a groom.
00:06:10Alex, looks like your sister's in trouble.
00:06:16Who the hell let you in here?
00:06:18Victoria Kingsley.
00:06:21You know how much I love you.
00:06:24Marry me.
00:06:25And you know I'd rather die than marry you.
00:06:29Oh, baby.
00:06:30But then, you lose Kingsley Corp.
00:06:34Newsflash, every man in the city knows you're mine.
00:06:39No one's gonna marry you, sweet cheeks.
00:06:42It's either me or nothing.
00:06:46Your eyes is mine.
00:06:47Not in a million years, you scumbag.
00:06:51You think I don't know?
00:06:53You're just after the quantum chip tech my parents left behind.
00:06:56And marrying me happens to be the fastest, cleanest way to get your hands on it.
00:07:00Fine.
00:07:03You caught me.
00:07:05Well then, let's make this marriage official.
00:07:09Get off me!
00:07:09Go ahead.
00:07:14Just give me a little hug out.
00:07:23Yo, where the hell you going?
00:07:25I'm going in.
00:07:27No man is brave enough to play savior from this kingdom.
00:07:31No man.
00:07:48I am.
00:07:51Who the fuck are you?
00:07:53Leave him alone.
00:07:53He has nothing to do with this.
00:07:56This guy must have a death wish.
00:07:59You think you can come in here and play hero?
00:08:03Do you know who the fuck I am?
00:08:06I don't give a shit who you are.
00:08:08Victoria is my fiance.
00:08:13You marry Victoria Kingsley.
00:08:17Don't make me laugh.
00:08:19That's right.
00:08:20We're getting married and there's nothing you can do to change that, Tristan.
00:08:22Sorry buddy.
00:08:24When you're going out on the body bag,
00:08:27Victoria is mine.
00:08:30Kill this cocky piece of shit.
00:08:32Let's go.
00:08:52You can't just be a security guard.
00:09:03But I am.
00:09:12Easy there, bud.
00:09:14Don't get too trigger happy.
00:09:15Laying your hands on a woman doesn't make you a man.
00:09:18If you want to fight, try someone your own size.
00:09:21You're pretty tough for a guard, dog.
00:09:23I'll give you that.
00:09:25Do you think this shit scares me?
00:09:29Kingsley Banquets tonight?
00:09:31I'm going to make sure everyone hears that you married a security guard.
00:09:38Let's see how long it takes your family to disown you.
00:09:40Is that a threat?
00:09:41No.
00:09:42Just the truth.
00:09:44The Kingsleys are broke, Vicky.
00:09:50You think this runner cop's going to fix that?
00:09:54Well, if I can't fix it.
00:09:57Maybe this will.
00:09:59No, no, no.
00:10:00If you kill me,
00:10:02the Kingsleys are finished.
00:10:04We'll see about that.
00:10:07Fine, fine, fine, fine.
00:10:08We'll have a civilized discussion at the banquet.
00:10:11Please.
00:10:13Don't kill me.
00:10:18Get the fuck out.
00:10:24Thanks for saving me just now.
00:10:26You okay?
00:10:29Cole?
00:10:30Cole?
00:10:45Did you mean what you said earlier?
00:10:47Will you marry me?
00:10:48Marry you.
00:10:53You've got the city's biggest crime boss, Tristan Van, breathing down your neck and you want
00:10:57me to marry you?
00:10:58Is this supposed to be a thank you or a death sentence?
00:11:01You're right.
00:11:03It's too much to ask.
00:11:04But I happen to like a good challenge.
00:11:22So yeah, Victoria, I'll marry you.
00:11:25Really?
00:11:27Let's go make it official.
00:11:28Alex, if marrying your sister is the only way to protect her, then I gotta do what I gotta do.
00:11:34I hope you're not mad at me, brother.
00:11:36Let's go.
00:11:41Oh my god, boss, you did it!
00:11:42You really did it!
00:11:44This means you saved your parents' company!
00:11:46Yes, yes, keep your voice down, Emily.
00:11:49By the way, husband, tomorrow's our family banquet.
00:11:53You're coming with me.
00:11:54Your call.
00:11:56And?
00:11:56Here's a hundred grand.
00:12:02I need you to get a gift for the banquet.
00:12:05Call it a wedding gift from my husband to the Kingsleys, got it?
00:12:09But boss, a hundred grand gift isn't going to make them forget you married a security guard.
00:12:15Let's just hope it works.
00:12:17I've got to get back to the office.
00:12:22Alex, you're right.
00:12:24The Kingsley family really is a snake pet.
00:12:28Yeah, it's me.
00:12:30Have the Shadow Alliance prepare a gift for the Kingsley family.
00:12:33Oh.
00:12:35Make it big.
00:12:36Mr. Conrad Kingsley, I heard you just closed the East Coast port deal at the insistence of your father, Alistair.
00:12:51It was very impressive.
00:12:52It's just another small win for the family.
00:12:54Nothing to brag about.
00:12:55Mr. Kingsley, to many more years of good health and fortune.
00:13:19How's father Alistair?
00:13:21I've been praying for him.
00:13:24I have been planning on leading the Kingsley legacy for years.
00:13:28He's fine.
00:13:31Just a little something to keep the Kingsley family shining.
00:13:37What is it?
00:13:38Jesus!
00:13:39That's the legendary revolver from Elvis Presley's private collection.
00:13:44Last I heard it was going for three million.
00:13:46That is a very generous gift.
00:13:48Three million?
00:13:49That's got to be worth at least five.
00:13:51Van family certainly knows how to make an entrance.
00:13:53A little bird told me that you've been courting my niece, Victoria.
00:13:56That's too bad.
00:13:57Because Miss Victoria has given a heart to someone else.
00:14:02Has she?
00:14:03Who is that with Victoria?
00:14:15Her security guard.
00:14:16Wow.
00:14:17The mighty Kingsleys really have fallen since their grandfather Alistair Kingsley is sick.
00:14:28I heard they're barely hanging on under Conrad's leadership.
00:14:41Tristan was supposed to bail them out.
00:14:43I guess Victoria's lost it.
00:14:45Victoria, who is this?
00:14:47Uncle.
00:14:48This is Cole Slade.
00:14:50My husband.
00:14:51Husband.
00:14:54You trying to kill your grandfather?
00:14:56You're young.
00:14:57You know, throw tantrums, but marriage is not a game.
00:14:59This isn't a tantrum.
00:15:01And it's not about money, either.
00:15:04I love Cole, and that's why I chose him.
00:15:07Wow.
00:15:08Now that you're married niece?
00:15:11Tristan, maybe our families can join together through my daughter, Serena.
00:15:16You know, this is a family banquet.
00:15:19You didn't come empty-handed, did you?
00:15:22Tristan brought a five mil revolver for Grandpa.
00:15:25What about you, Vicky?
00:15:27What did you bring?
00:15:28Oh, shoot.
00:15:29I only gave Cole a hundred grand.
00:15:31Tristan dropped five mil?
00:15:33We're screwed.
00:15:34Of course we did.
00:15:36Oh, you actually brought something?
00:15:45Of course we brought a gift.
00:15:48Well, let's see what he's got.
00:15:50Perhaps Mr. Slade is a secret billionaire.
00:15:53What is this?
00:16:08Seriously, that's the gift?
00:16:11It looks like some toy from a dollar store's clearance bin.
00:16:15Victoria, not to lecture you, but this is a family banquet.
00:16:20You can't just phone it in, but a security guard is a security guard.
00:16:25Cole, I thought I gave you a hundred grand house.
00:16:29Now, are you sure you don't want to know what that badge is actually worth?
00:16:34Go on.
00:16:35I'm listening.
00:16:36Let's see what kind of crap this security guard can spend.
00:16:39Let me guess.
00:16:41My dear cousin-in-law is going to tell us that this is some sort of secret society emblem.
00:16:47Let the kid talk.
00:16:49This is the Shadow Alliance badge.
00:16:54Whoever holds it can move capital and access assets at will.
00:16:58Oh, my gosh.
00:17:00The Shadow Alliance holds sway over government and the criminal underworld.
00:17:04They practically run the whole world.
00:17:06With this badge, the Kingsley's can finally get their hands on that trans-Pacific trade
00:17:11route permit they've been dreaming about for years.
00:17:13Wait.
00:17:14Did you just say the Shadow Alliance?
00:17:17You mean the infamous League of Military Veterans?
00:17:20Who are you and what are you doing with the Shadow Alliance's badge?
00:17:28I'm the founder of the Shadow Alliance.
00:17:30This badge is my ID.
00:17:33It carries my authority.
00:17:35This rent-a-cop, the founder of the Shadow Alliance?
00:17:39Don't make me laugh.
00:17:41Vicky, your man got a PhD in bullshit or what?
00:17:45Yo, security guy, do you need us to call you a shrink?
00:17:49Hey, did you just pocket that hundred grand I gave you and now you're spending these
00:17:54lives covered up?
00:17:55Of course not, Victoria.
00:17:57Everything I'm telling them is true.
00:18:00Get out.
00:18:02And don't show your face around here again, especially in front of your grandfather.
00:18:09This badge was a gift for Alistair, given out of respect for Victoria.
00:18:14You know, it's a shame none of you can recognize value when it's right in front of you.
00:18:20But luckily, I brought back up.
00:18:25Victoria said her grandfather was a collector of Renaissance art.
00:18:29So I had my people send this over right away.
00:18:31The original, Mona Lisa.
00:18:40So what do you think?
00:18:43A little more to your liking?
00:18:45This can't be real.
00:18:48That painting is worth 10 billion.
00:18:55Mission accomplished.
00:18:59Wait, boss, didn't you just give him a hundred grand?
00:19:01Where did the 10 billion come from?
00:19:03I have no idea.
00:19:05This is one of the nicest gifts we've ever received.
00:19:09Might actually get your grandfather out of bed.
00:19:11What's the point?
00:19:13You ran him off.
00:19:15Oh.
00:19:16Mr. Slade is a very generous man.
00:19:19What are you waiting for?
00:19:21Go chase after him.
00:19:23Bring him back here so your grandfather can meet him.
00:19:26Having gold diggers as family is humiliating.
00:19:4310 billion blown.
00:19:46Couldn't even get a decent meal out of it.
00:19:49Bunch of money-hungry jackasses.
00:19:52Couldn't even cover a burger.
00:19:57Really?
00:19:58A guy who could pull out 10 billion without blinking is eating this?
00:20:02Well, it beats hanging out with someone who wouldn't even buy me one of these.
00:20:09Get in.
00:20:13So, where are we going?
00:20:23Home.
00:20:26We've been a little quick, aren't we?
00:20:28I'm cooking.
00:20:30Just figured I'd thank you properly.
00:20:34Hold on.
00:20:35Okay.
00:20:36Victoria Kingsley in the kitchen.
00:20:38Wow.
00:20:39Okay, you know what?
00:20:40I'm gonna have to record this just so we can have it as part of our family.
00:20:42History.
00:20:43Why my phone?
00:20:45Ugh, shut up.
00:20:47Buckle up.
00:20:52This used to be my parents' place.
00:20:54Security is solid.
00:20:55Make yourself comfortable.
00:20:57I'm gonna go change.
00:20:58How's steak sound?
00:20:59Wow, you actually cook.
00:21:00I thought you just signed checks.
00:21:01There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:21:03That 10 billion.
00:21:04Where did it actually come from?
00:21:05Well, you gave it to me, remember?
00:21:06That 10 billion.
00:21:07Where did it actually come from?
00:21:08Well, you gave it to me, remember?
00:21:09Me?
00:21:10No.
00:21:11It was...
00:21:12It was...
00:21:13It was...
00:21:14Ga-
00:21:15It was...
00:21:16It was...
00:21:17It was...
00:21:18Well, you gave it to me, remember?
00:21:19Me?
00:21:20No.
00:21:21It was...
00:21:22It was...
00:21:23I...
00:21:24It was...
00:21:25Where did it actually come from?
00:21:30Well, you gave it to me, remember?
00:21:34Me? No, it was...
00:21:43Are you crazy?
00:21:55Security's solid, huh?
00:22:07How did you know this place was bugged?
00:22:10Occupational hazard?
00:22:12Security guards supposed to keep things secure, right?
00:22:15A security guard who throws around 10 billion like it's pocket change?
00:22:22I'll pay you back soon.
00:22:23Three days from now, the Shadow Alliance is hosting the Golden Coast on the Maple Hotel
00:22:28to decide on the next big partnership.
00:22:38That'll put your family at the top of the list.
00:22:41The smoother it goes for you, the faster I get my money back, right?
00:22:46You're telling me this little thing's that powerful?
00:22:49We'll see.
00:22:51Fine.
00:22:52I owe you.
00:22:54Twice.
00:22:56Yeah, yeah, the gift.
00:22:58And our marriage, which, by the way...
00:23:01What?
00:23:03Is a contract.
00:23:05So we need rules.
00:23:09I'm listening.
00:23:11Rule number one, stay out of each other's love lives.
00:23:14Fair.
00:23:15Rule number two, my place isn't safe anymore.
00:23:19My grandpa and uncle will just keep spying on us, so...
00:23:22So we act like the perfect couple.
00:23:28Luckily for you, I am really good at faking it.
00:23:34Rule three, my bedroom is off limits.
00:23:38To everyone.
00:23:39To everyone.
00:23:40But me.
00:23:44Especially.
00:23:46No kissing, no sex.
00:23:48No kissing, no sex.
00:23:50Yeah.
00:23:52Really, it'd be the perfect couple.
00:23:54Not my problem.
00:23:55Not my problem.
00:24:06No eggs tonight.
00:24:08You're allergic.
00:24:10How did you know that?
00:24:13You're spying on me too?
00:24:15Relax.
00:24:17Just break room gossip, that's all.
00:24:20Victoria Kingsley breaks out in hives when she has eggs.
00:24:24What is that worth, like, nine bucks?
00:24:26My allergies are none of your business.
00:24:28Just sit down and wait.
00:24:32Dinner will be ready soon.
00:24:58There's a surveillance, too.
00:25:10Just like I thought.
00:25:28I told him no kissing, but we did it again.
00:25:54Why can't I resist him?
00:25:58Damn, wifey.
00:26:06How was Oscar worthy?
00:26:08It was an accident.
00:26:11Honey, the steak's burning.
00:26:22You did that on purpose.
00:26:24Just another day in married life.
00:26:26Now, about that accidental kissing thing.
00:26:30Shut up.
00:26:32Need a hand, wifey?
00:26:33Call me that again, and I'll knock you out with this frying pan.
00:26:37Icedy.
00:26:38Like it.
00:26:39Looks like these two are getting along.
00:27:02Better than we expected.
00:27:06Dad, doesn't this seem off?
00:27:11That coal guy just casually drops ten billion, but he's working as a security guard?
00:27:16All the bugs are dead?
00:27:18Every single one.
00:27:19And whoever did it knows exactly what they were doing.
00:27:23Interesting.
00:27:25Seems our little niece and this rent-a-cop are just full of surprises.
00:27:30Mm-hmm.
00:27:31And you ran all the usual checks?
00:27:32I went through all the contacts we have.
00:27:34Still nothing.
00:27:36No bank accounts.
00:27:38No credit history.
00:27:40Not even a parking ticket.
00:27:43There's only three kinds of people in this world who stay this clean.
00:27:47Spies.
00:27:49The dead.
00:27:53And those richer than us.
00:27:56So which one is he?
00:27:58Excuse me, miss.
00:27:59You can't enter.
00:28:00Get out of my way.
00:28:02I'm so sorry, Mr. Kingsley.
00:28:07So it was you.
00:28:10You planted the bugs.
00:28:13Victoria, I did this to protect my brother's company.
00:28:16Protect it?
00:28:17You mean steal it from his only daughter?
00:28:20Enough!
00:28:24Victoria, who is this coal?
00:28:28Some hotshot?
00:28:30Why can't we dig anything up on him?
00:28:33A hotshot?
00:28:34He's just our company's security guard.
00:28:39You really think we're going to fall for that?
00:28:41You're embarrassing our whole family.
00:28:45Explain the $10 billion.
00:28:47There's only two options here.
00:28:49One, you funneled company funds.
00:28:54And two, the gifts are fakes.
00:29:02All of them.
00:29:02There's no $10 billion in your company accounts, so that only leads to an option.
00:29:12The gifts are all knockoffs.
00:29:15Knockoffs?
00:29:16Don't you even know how bad this makes our family look?
00:29:20Told you, Dad.
00:29:21She's always been a stain on this family.
00:29:24Stop making assumptions.
00:29:27Just because you don't know who Cole is doesn't mean the gifts are fake.
00:29:30Shut up!
00:29:31The Kingsley legacy is not yours to sell off to some rent-a-cop.
00:29:33No, you shut up!
00:29:35Even if the gifts are fake, I would still never marry Tristan.
00:29:37Ever!
00:29:43Serena, from now on, I want you to spend more time with Tristan Vann.
00:29:46The Kingsleys need the Vann family's support now more than ever.
00:29:53Yes, Dad.
00:29:55I'll give him a call.
00:30:02The Vann family has a real pull with the Shadow Alliance.
00:30:06We will secure their deal in three days' time with the Vann family's support.
00:30:10By our side.
00:30:10Three days from now, the Shadow Alliance is hosting the Golden Coast Summit at the Maple Hotel
00:30:18to decide on the next big partnership.
00:30:23That'll put your family at the top of the list.
00:30:25The smoother it goes for you, the faster I get my money back, right?
00:30:31The Vanns have the power to open the door.
00:30:35We just have to follow their lead and take our cut.
00:30:38Tori, when everything ends, I want you to resign.
00:30:43It's time to rethink who runs the family business.
00:30:48Dearest cousin,
00:30:50what do we do with this pile of junk from your rent-a-cop boyfriend?
00:30:55Burn it.
00:30:57All of it.
00:30:59The Kingsley House is no place for a cheap print.
00:31:03No, wait.
00:31:09Just wait, it's not.
00:31:11Wait!
00:31:21Miss Kingsley, you can't come in.
00:31:22No, stop!
00:31:23What are you doing?
00:31:24It's for real Mona Lisa.
00:31:29No!
00:31:30Stop!
00:31:31They were real!
00:31:49Oh, little princess living in your fairy tale.
00:31:56Let this be a warning to you.
00:31:58You'll regret this.
00:31:59No.
00:32:00You will regret this.
00:32:03Once I marry Tristan,
00:32:05you won't even be able to afford your rent-a-cop husband.
00:32:08You know, it takes a lot of guts for you to show up in my place like this.
00:32:25You'll get yourself killed.
00:32:38Still have my cousin on your mind?
00:32:42You're miles above her.
00:32:43you know why the van family gets an invite because we do anything for the shadow alliance
00:32:57anything that's something you and i have in common
00:33:04if you can get my family into the shadow alliance
00:33:07i may be willing to relieve some of your frustrations
00:33:13see you're not in a position to negotiate
00:33:30you're right there are many positions we can negotiate in
00:33:35which one's your favorite
00:33:39the one where you're on your knees
00:33:45now we're talking
00:34:05since i realized your talents i believe i can get the kingsley to the summit
00:34:16oh mr van i knew you would come to your senses
00:34:21as a man of your talents nothing's impossible

00:34:28you have a lot of work to do
00:34:33to earn
00:34:36the privilege of an invite
00:34:39that was only a taste of what i'm capable of
00:34:43well i guess i have to find out that
00:34:45please
00:34:47later but now i want something from kingsley tech
00:34:51victoria's company
00:34:54it's been falling apart ever since her parents died
00:34:57i'm serious
00:34:59if it didn't have the kingsley name on it
00:35:02nobody in my family would even care about it
00:35:05that's not your problem

00:35:09or you'll be left with nothing.
00:35:14All right.
00:35:17Good thing we still have an insider in her company.
00:35:21That's better.
00:35:33Three days into the summit,
00:35:35I have to lock priority access.
00:35:41Power outage?
00:36:03Paul?
00:36:04Mike?
00:36:06Anybody?
00:36:08Anybody?
00:36:22Who's there?
00:36:25I'm just hearing this.
00:36:33There.
00:36:34There.
00:36:35I'm just hearing this.
00:36:48I'm just hearing this.
00:36:52I'm just hearing this.
00:36:54I'm just hearing this.
00:36:55I'm just hearing this.
00:37:04Breaker room should be...
00:37:06Check department, now.
00:37:10Who are you?
00:37:11You really can't tell.
00:37:14It's you?
00:37:22Emily.
00:37:23It's you?
00:37:24Surprise.
00:37:26Emily, since the day you've joined this company,
00:37:29vacations, bonuses, raises, you've had everything.
00:37:33Why'd you turn your back on me?
00:37:34Quit whining.
00:37:36You've been good to me, Victoria,
00:37:38but the Vann family's offering war.
00:37:42Why wouldn't I take it?
00:37:50I am your employee, not your slave.
00:37:54I've got a better deal now, and you should be happy for me.
00:37:58Emily, you've let money blind you.
00:38:00Shut up!
00:38:02You're taking me to the tech department now!
00:38:06Move it!
00:38:11Move it!
00:38:23Finally!
00:38:24Tristan gets what he wants!
00:38:26Not so fast.
00:38:28What's that supposed to mean?
00:38:30This tech is split into three parts.
00:38:32You've only got one of them.
00:38:35Where's the rest?
00:38:38Tell me!
00:38:39You wish!
00:38:41Then die!
00:38:42It's a cute toy.
00:38:52It even stings.
00:38:54Blood enough to make you feel every bone.
00:38:55Ah!
00:39:02You good?
00:39:02Yeah, I-I-I'm fine.
00:39:27I just never thought Emily would backstab me like that.
00:39:31What's Tristan after, anyway?
00:39:35That's worth going this far.
00:39:37The quantum chip tech.
00:39:40My parents' last research.
00:39:43From the sham engagement to buying off my uncle, every move led to this.
00:39:48I just never thought my own assistant would sell me out.
00:39:51Say the word, and I'll make more disappear.
00:39:56No.
00:39:57It's fine.
00:39:58I'll figure something out.
00:40:00How?
00:40:01As long as we land new deals,
00:40:04you won't have any hold over us.
00:40:05Motherfucker!
00:40:17It's Cole again!
00:40:18He's-he's fucking it all up!
00:40:20Little fucking mutt!
00:40:22Easy, babe.
00:40:25I know how to deal with Cole.
00:40:27I have an idea.
00:40:29Oh yeah?
00:40:31What?
00:40:33No matter how tough you are,
00:40:37if a woman's got your interest,
00:40:40you're a done for.
00:40:42I like that.
00:40:44I like that alive.
00:40:45Who is this?
00:41:04Come on, Cole.
00:41:06Don't be so mean.
00:41:07I'm just trying to help.
00:41:09Listen.
00:41:09The Van family's been looking into Victoria.
00:41:12What's your point?
00:41:13All right, all right.
00:41:16My point is,
00:41:17they've got a file on Victoria's company.
00:41:20And if it leaks,
00:41:21she's screwed.
00:41:23Who the hell are you?
00:41:25What do you want?
00:41:26Relax.
00:41:27I'm not trying to threaten you.
00:41:29Just meet me at the bar tonight,
00:41:31eight o'clock.
00:41:32And maybe,
00:41:33I'll take care of this for you.
00:41:41Cole, what's going on, man?
00:41:43I've got to head out for a bit.
00:41:45Keep an eye on Victoria.
00:41:46If anything happens,
00:41:47call me.
00:41:48I'll take care of it.
00:42:05I'll take care of it.
00:42:07What's going on, man?
00:42:09What's going on?
00:42:09Let's go.
00:42:10What's going on?
00:42:11Hey handsome, you want to have some fun?
00:42:25I can eat it.
00:42:28Take it easy.
00:42:33Take it easy.
00:43:03Take it easy.
00:43:19Take it easy.
00:43:25You're lucky I don't hate women.
00:43:37What if you keep pushing me?
00:43:41I will.
00:43:43Just join me for a drink.
00:43:47For Victoria and her company.
00:43:53I knew that name would get you back.
00:44:02Cut the crap.
00:44:04You're not getting anywhere near Victoria.
00:44:06I'm not going to let that happen.
00:44:09Have your drink.
00:44:12And then...
00:44:14I'll tell you all my secrets.
00:44:23Call me you asshole.
00:44:36Tell me now.
00:44:44The truck man.
00:44:57No.
00:44:58Better.
00:44:59It's my own special blend.
00:45:01It's an aphrodisiac.
00:45:03You got two options.
00:45:09One, you hand me Victoria's research and I give you that name to doubt.
00:45:16Or two, we skip the business.
00:45:20We have a little bit of fun.
00:45:22And she can find out the messy way.
00:45:24No, no.
00:45:25Don't move.
00:45:26Don't move.
00:45:27Thanks for watching over my husband.
00:45:40He's coming home with me now.
00:45:41Oh no.
00:45:42Sweetheart only so.
00:45:43He's here and he's mine.
00:45:45I'm sorry.
00:45:46Nothing happened between us.
00:45:47I swear.
00:45:48I know.
00:45:49You have better taste than this.
00:45:50Excuse me?
00:45:51Come on Cole.
00:45:52Let's go home.
00:45:53It's too hot.
00:45:54I can't breathe.
00:45:55I can't breathe.
00:45:56I can't breathe.
00:46:21Cole Slade.
00:46:22Zero number zero nine two four one four my brother's number was just one digit off
00:46:32Who are you
00:46:38Cole
00:46:52Cole did you just kiss me
00:47:00How the hell did I end up here
00:47:23Cole
00:47:30Oh

00:47:54Morning
00:47:56Last night did we um nope

00:48:04You seem almost happy about that
00:48:13You were in the military
00:48:19No
00:48:22No
00:48:23What are you looking at
00:48:31Profile in the Shadow Alliance's new U.S. director
00:48:35What it's a woman
00:48:39I know Amber's a woman
00:48:41How did you know her name is Amber
00:48:46Why are you still digging into the Shadow Alliance
00:48:52Well
00:48:53Amber is picking a new partner tonight
00:48:56Odds are it'll be the Vann family
00:48:59If that happens
00:49:01They'll take over my parents' quantum chip tech
00:49:04So you want to use the Shadow Alliance to protect it
00:49:07Problem is I can't even get an invite
00:49:10Doesn't your family already have one
00:49:13Yeah but they're not taking me
00:49:15Why I thought I gave your grandpa that painting
00:49:18They burned it
00:49:21Said it was a knockoff
00:49:24I'll pay you back
00:49:26If I get you that
00:49:33Can we forget about that deal we made
00:49:43Come again

00:50:48Best one you got
00:50:50Now
00:50:52Cole
00:51:02They've already kicked out two execs for not having invites
00:51:05If we can't
00:51:06Hey hey
00:51:07Don't worry
00:51:08Not only are you getting in
00:51:10You're also walking out with the deal
00:51:12Yeah right
00:51:14If I can just get the Shadow Alliance to protect me
00:51:17And keep my parents' research safe
00:51:19That's all I need
00:51:20Victoria
00:51:21You have to trust me
00:51:23Say hi
00:51:24Ha

00:51:44Or I'm just friends with your dad
00:51:46That's it
00:51:47Who cares
00:51:49I like you
00:51:51And I'm not letting go
00:51:53Victoria

00:52:12The Shadow Alliance's most exclusive invite
00:52:15Thanks
00:52:17Hold up
00:52:18You're really going to give out this invite?
00:52:21This invite is worth a fortune
00:52:23No one else has ever gotten one
00:52:25This is the first and the only
00:52:27I know
00:52:29But it's for my wife
00:52:32Don't say that in front of my wife again
00:52:37I gotta see what kind of woman has got Cole all hung up
00:52:43Victoria
00:52:45Wait
00:52:46Look
00:52:47She's just a friend
00:52:49That's all

00:52:51Go away
00:52:51Come
00:52:53Trust me
00:53:07She's just a friend
00:53:09She came to drop off the invite
00:53:12That's all
00:53:13Yeah right
00:53:15Mr. Slade's got a girl on the left
00:53:18Another on the right
00:53:19Looks like you're having the time of your life
00:53:21You feel that
00:53:27It only beats for you
00:53:29Just you
00:53:33The invite?
00:53:44Yeah
00:53:44That's something that's about to begin
00:53:46Let's head in
00:53:49I'll deal with you when we get home
00:53:52Hello
00:54:08Hello
00:54:11Grandpa
00:54:17Tristan's cousin is the host tonight
00:54:21Without him
00:54:22Our family wouldn't have even made it to an event like this
00:54:25Well we do owe a lot to Tristan
00:54:28And to you
00:54:29You're the reason he's helping us
00:54:31Oh grandpa
00:54:32It's the least I can do
00:54:34You know
00:54:35Victoria isn't your only granddaughter
00:54:38Well after the summit
00:54:40I want to take
00:54:41Victoria's title and positions away
00:54:44She is not fit
00:54:45To be the CEO
00:54:46Victoria
00:54:50I told you marrying me is your best option
00:54:53But you didn't listen
00:54:55Once Serena takes over as CEO
00:54:57Your parents' research will still end up in my hands
00:55:01And when that day comes
00:55:03You'll be mine
00:55:04Just something to use
00:55:06However I want
00:55:07Is it that Victorian coal?
00:55:17What the hell are they doing here?
00:55:26Mr. Kingsley
00:55:27Grandpa?
00:55:31Victoria
00:55:31Coming in under Tristan's name is one thing
00:55:34But to bring this?
00:55:36This guy who tried to pass off a fake?
00:55:39I didn't think you'd sink this low
00:55:41Grandpa
00:55:41I don't understand
00:55:42I'm still the CEO of our family company
00:55:45Which means I have every right to be here
00:55:48And it's my call to bring whoever I want
00:55:50Sure if you got that invite yourself
00:55:53But you're only here because of Serena and Tristan
00:55:56Showing up with this
00:55:58Security guard husband of yours is not helping at all
00:56:02I'm here because I got the invite myself
00:56:05Serena and Tristan had nothing to do with it
00:56:08Oh, come on, Vicky
00:56:10This is a business event
00:56:13Not a beauty pageant
00:56:14No one's looking for eye candy
00:56:16If I was you
00:56:18I'd walk out of here right now
00:56:21You come in over here
00:56:23Trying to steal the spotlight is embarrassing
00:56:26Why don't you take a good look?
00:56:32You really think you got that on your own?
00:56:35More like a host handed it off
00:56:37Because you're still riding on Tristan's coattails
00:56:40That's weird
00:56:42I never told the host to let her in
00:56:45There's only one way that's possible
00:56:47It's fake
00:56:49Can you believe it?
00:57:01Someone actually faked a Shadow Alliance invite
00:57:04That's insane
00:57:06If people were to find out the entire Kingsley Empire is done
00:57:09No, you've got it wrong
00:57:12It doesn't matter if this invite is real or not
00:57:17That's not your call to me
00:57:20Shut up!
00:57:22Are you trying to drag this family down?
00:57:25Victoria, you need to get this useless man out of here now!
00:57:31Vicky!
00:57:32What would you have done to Grandpa?
00:57:33Apologize now!
00:57:35Could this invite actually be fake?
00:57:37Cole, let's go
00:57:38Wait
00:57:40Why are you guys running?
00:57:44You were so confident that invite was real
00:57:46Well, if my invite is fake
00:57:50Well, then this entire event is a sham and
00:57:55We can go home
00:57:57Prove it
00:57:58Open it up
00:58:01And show us
00:58:03Yeah
00:58:04Yeah?
00:58:05Let us see it
00:58:06Open it up!
00:58:06Open it up!
00:58:07Open it!
00:58:09Open it!
00:58:10Open it!
00:58:12Open it!
00:58:13Open it!
00:58:17Come on, bud
00:58:18Stop wasting everybody's time
00:58:21Now you
00:58:25Are absolutely sure
00:58:27This invite is fake
00:58:29Damn right
00:58:30You know what?
00:58:32Let's make it interesting
00:58:33If that invite is forged
00:58:35I'll break your leg
00:58:38She
00:58:39Hands over the quantum chip
00:58:41And if it's real
00:58:43And I'll kneel down and kiss your shoes
00:58:47And I'll get the hell out of here
00:58:50Deal
00:58:52You call that an invitation?
00:59:08Oh my god
00:59:09You have got to be kidding me
00:59:11Nice
00:59:12You seen this?
00:59:17This is the sloppiest fake
00:59:20I've ever seen
00:59:22Listen up, genius
00:59:23Shadow Alliance invites come in black
00:59:26For standard
00:59:27And blue
00:59:28For VIPs
00:59:30Vicky, if you're gonna fake one
00:59:33At least do your research first
00:59:36Grandpa was right
00:59:38You don't deserve
00:59:40To lead the Kingsley family
00:59:42Victoria, you have brought this on yourself
00:59:46You are turning this family into a complete joke
00:59:49Who said it's fake?
00:59:53Cut the crap
00:59:54Like I said
00:59:55This is Shadow Alliance's most exclusive invite
00:59:59Only one's ever been sent out since it's been founded
01:00:02Makes sense
01:00:03They've never seen it before
01:00:04That doesn't mean it's fake
01:00:07Enough, Cole
01:00:09Everyone here doesn't believe a word you say
01:00:13And I'm about to make you regret
01:00:15We're running your mouth
01:00:16Grab him
01:00:17I'll break his leg myself
01:00:37That is the Lester Duvall
01:00:41He is from the Shadow Alliance
01:00:44I heard he handles everything
01:00:47All the Shadow Alliance's outside business
01:00:49I can't believe we're actually getting to see him in person
01:00:51If I could work with him
01:00:53I'd be on Wall Street in no time
01:00:55You wish
01:00:56The Shadow Alliance is definitely going to pick Tristan
01:00:59As their new partner for sure
01:01:00The Kingsley family's already hanging on them
01:01:03Tristan
01:01:04Sounds like you're gonna be the star tonight
01:01:07Lucky you, Vicky
01:01:09Even with a fake invite
01:01:11You still get to meet Mr. Duvall
01:01:12Once you become the Shadow Alliance's new leader
01:01:16You'll introduce me to Mr. Duvall, right?
01:01:18Of course
01:01:19My family is counting on you
01:01:22Don't worry
01:01:24I got it
01:01:26But from now on
01:01:28Serena Kingsley runs the family company
01:01:31Yes, of course, of course
01:01:34Don't worry
01:01:36You're gonna be the Shadow Alliance's new partner
01:01:38Nobody's changing that
01:01:42Yeah
01:01:43We'll see how long that lasts
01:01:45Mr. Duvall
01:01:49This is Tristan Vann
01:01:51Heir to the Vann's richest family in the state
01:01:54And he's my cousin
01:01:56It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Duvall
01:01:58Oh, this is Serena Kingsley
01:02:04The new appointed CEO
01:02:06Of the Kingsley company
01:02:07Mr. Duvall, it's a pleasure
01:02:10Tristan
01:02:12Mr. Duvall is picking the Shadow Alliance's new partner tonight
01:02:16Don't mess it up
01:02:18Got it
01:02:19Mr. Duvall
01:02:20If you pick me
01:02:21I will not let the Shadow Alliance down
01:02:24Which one of them did Ms. Cross tell me to look after?
01:02:30Didn't you say Victoria would be the new partner of the Shadow Alliance?
01:02:34Looks like she couldn't even get a nod from Mr. Duvall
01:02:36He's probably just scared Mr. Duvall's gonna find out that invite's fate
01:02:40That's why he's keeping his mouth shut
01:02:44The event's just started
01:02:48Nobody knows yet who the Shadow Alliance is gonna pick
01:02:52Ladies and gentlemen
01:02:54Welcome to the Shadow Alliance Summit
01:02:57And please welcome Mr. Lester Duvall
01:02:59From the Shadow Alliance
01:03:01Tonight's agenda is simple
01:03:08Mr. Duvall will be selecting the Shadow Alliance's new partner
01:03:12And donating $50 billion to the quantum chip research
01:03:17This is our shot
01:03:21If you would like to be considered, step forward now
01:03:25Get back there
01:03:28The Van family?
01:03:31Is ready to partner with the Shadow Alliance
01:03:33Mr. Duvall, the Vans are, frankly
01:03:36The strongest candidate in the room
01:03:38Nice job, Tristan
01:03:41Don't grats
01:03:43If there are no other candidates
01:03:45I'll now announce the Shadow Alliance's new partner
01:03:48I'm in
01:03:49I want that partnership, too
01:03:53Victoria, stop it
01:03:58Tristan is the Shadow Alliance's new partner
01:04:01Quit embarrassing us
01:04:02Vicky, I know you want the spotlight
01:04:05But don't embarrass our family for your ego
01:04:08Aren't you a Kingsley, too?
01:04:13Mr. Duvall, you can forget about her
01:04:15Serena is our new CEO
01:04:17That is all you need to know
01:04:18Victoria never said she wants to become the Shadow Alliance's partner
01:04:22As part of the Kingsley family
01:04:23And what does that mean?
01:04:26She's starting her own company
01:04:27Under her name
01:04:29Are you serious?
01:04:33A shell company partnering with the Shadow Alliance?
01:04:36Do you think everyone's dumb enough to believe that?
01:04:38You got in here on a fake invite
01:04:41Don't push your luck
01:04:42Someone forged a Shadow Alliance invite?
01:04:46You know
01:04:50Since the Shadow Alliance started
01:04:53There were two people
01:04:55That forged an invite
01:04:57And they
01:04:58Paid the price
01:05:00Didn't think I'll see such a fool today
01:05:04What's the matter?
01:05:06Didn't think Mr. Duvall would show up in person?
01:05:08When I show them this fake invite
01:05:11Your cover's blown
01:05:16And you're done
01:05:18Cool
01:05:19Oh, wait
01:05:22Mr. Duvall
01:05:25Here it is
01:05:26That's the most exclusive invite to the summit
01:05:32This is the cheapest fake I've ever seen
01:05:34And an outright insult to you
01:05:37Let me take this garbage out for you
01:05:40Stop!
01:05:46Mr. Duvall
01:05:48Why are you
01:05:49That's right
01:05:51This really is the Shadow Alliance's most exclusive invite
01:05:55Mr. Duvall, it's just a fake
01:05:57Shut up!
01:05:58Oh my god
01:05:59Mr. Slade
01:06:03This is the Shadow Alliance's exclusive invitation
01:06:07You have access to all of our properties
01:06:09No interference
01:06:10What?
01:06:12He doesn't have the authority to get someone like this
01:06:14Are you gonna question
01:06:15My judgment?
01:06:17Not
01:06:18Now
01:06:19Focus on securing the partnership first
01:06:22We'll deal with the rest once this is over
01:06:25Vicki
01:06:27Partnerships run on resources
01:06:30Without the Kingsleys
01:06:33What can you even do?
01:06:34Victoria
01:06:36If you are
01:06:37Bound and determined to start your own company
01:06:40The Kingsley family will give you nothing
01:06:43Well sure
01:06:46Victoria's company is new
01:06:48Doesn't have all the resources it needs yet
01:06:51But we have something you can't say no to
01:06:54If you make Victoria your new partner
01:06:58You're gonna make someone really happy
01:07:00Are you nuts?
01:07:0250 billion dollars to make one person happy?
01:07:06You think the Shadow Alliance is that stupid to believe that?
01:07:10Victoria, shut him up before he jacks us all down
01:07:12Victoria, get him out of here now!
01:07:16Exactly who
01:07:17Is going to be happy?
01:07:19Well you're not here to make money or do business
01:07:23You're just here to please
01:07:25Enough!
01:07:28You know what?
01:07:28Save this for your funeral
01:07:29Get him out of here!
01:07:31All you have to do is pick Victoria
01:07:33And you will get exactly what you want
01:07:37Trust me
01:07:39The badge I gave you
01:07:42Where is it?
01:07:49Hold it
01:07:52Victoria
01:07:56If this family takes a hit
01:07:58We're gonna sever ties with you for good
01:08:00Oh, Mr. Duvall's coming right for you
01:08:03Looks pretty pissed too
01:08:05Miss Kingsley
01:08:07May I have that badge please?
01:08:10That, that's it
01:08:20It's the real thing
01:08:21Miss Kingsley
01:08:22Do you intend to start a new company
01:08:24And form a partnership
01:08:26With the Shadow Alliance?
01:08:28I'm a mission of all
01:08:29No reason to get upset
01:08:30I'll get these two out of here
01:08:31What's the holdup?
01:08:33Move it!
01:08:34You think you can just interrupt me?
01:08:39You see this?
01:08:41I'm in hot water
01:08:42Because you two pissed them off
01:08:43When this summit is over
01:08:45You two are getting what's coming to you
01:08:47Don't worry, Tristan
01:08:48The moment we step out of this room
01:08:50Victoria is no longer a member of this family
01:08:52Ladies and gentlemen
01:08:55The Shadow Alliance
01:08:57Has made a decision
01:08:58Our new partner is
01:09:01Once you land Shadow Alliance
01:09:08Taking down Victoria and Cole
01:09:10Is going to be child's play
01:09:11The new partner
01:09:14Of the Shadow Alliance is
01:09:16Miss Victoria Kingsley
01:09:21Miss Kingsley
01:09:26Please have your paperwork
01:09:28Ready by tomorrow
01:09:29And I'll come by and sign it
01:09:31Myself
01:09:32No way!
01:09:34How is it her?
01:09:35But this has to all be about training
01:09:39The $50 billion is yours
01:09:41You can use it as you see fit
01:09:44And if you need any resources from then on
01:09:46Give the word
01:09:48And I'll make it happen
01:09:49What is the deal with Victoria?
01:09:52I mean, who is she?
01:09:54The Shadow Alliance doesn't just partner with random people
01:09:57That deal is basically free money
01:10:00Cole said that Lester was just trying to make people happy, right?
01:10:07Who do we think the elephant in the room is?
01:10:09He flipped like a switch the second he saw that badge in her hand
01:10:11He was going to give the partnership to Tristan
01:10:14No!
01:10:19Man, this is impossible!
01:10:21I never lose!
01:10:24Cole, am I dreaming?
01:10:27When I tell you
01:10:28I carry that badge
01:10:30I'll pick you
01:10:31Period
01:10:32But $50 billion?
01:10:37All of one tiny badge?
01:10:39Miss Kingsley
01:10:40I look forward to working with you
01:10:42Have the paperwork ready by tomorrow
01:10:44I'll come and I'll sign it
01:10:46And if you need anything in the meantime
01:10:48You say the word and I'll make it happen
01:10:49You're serious?
01:10:52All of this is real?
01:10:53Of course it's not real!
01:10:55Wake up!
01:10:56He only picked you because he assumed you were
01:10:58Running the Kingsley family!
01:11:01Mr. Valsh
01:11:01She's just a pretty face
01:11:04She is unfit
01:11:05To partner with the Shadow Alliance
01:11:07Okay?
01:11:08She has no resources!
01:11:10Mr. Duvall
01:11:11If we're talking about power and influence
01:11:16Tristan is the only logical choice
01:11:19That's right, Victoria
01:11:22As of today
01:11:23You are no longer a member of this family
01:11:25And without the Kingsley name
01:11:27You have absolutely nothing to offer
01:11:30The Shadow Alliance
01:11:32You Kingsley sure you want to cut Victoria loose?
01:11:40That's that friend of yours
01:11:45What's she doing here?
01:11:48I almost thought she was someone important
01:11:50But if she's Cole's friend
01:11:52She's probably just a gutter rat
01:11:53Keep talking like that
01:11:55And the Van family's gonna be six feet under by midnight
01:11:57Go on, Lester
01:12:02Tell the distinguished Mr. Van who I am
01:12:05Oh!
01:12:06Oh, Tristan!
01:12:07This is Ms. Amber Cross
01:12:12The U.S. Director of the Shadow Alliance
01:12:14And if I remember
01:12:17You just referred to Ms. Cross
01:12:19As a gutter rat
01:12:21I know who she was
01:12:22Oh, God!
01:12:23Mr. Duvall, please
01:12:24Tristan's just
01:12:25Young and ignorant
01:12:26Give him another chance to prove himself
01:12:30What the fuck, man?
01:12:33This is my turf
01:12:35I'm the one who wants this
01:12:37No one comes in here and pushes me around
01:12:39I need the Shadow Alliance
01:12:43You hear me?
01:12:44If all you had done was cross the Shadow Alliance
01:12:48I may have given you a free pass
01:12:50But what's really unforgivable
01:12:52Is that you disrespected Ms. Victoria Kingsley
01:12:55The woman with the badge
01:12:56Cole, what is this?
01:13:00Even Amber's acting like it's the most valuable thing in the world
01:13:03Dad, isn't it the same badge Cole tried to give you at the family dinner?
01:13:09No way that thing actually has any real pull
01:13:12Well, I tried to tell you
01:13:13This badge could single-handedly make your family crisis disappear
01:13:18And turn you into financial giants
01:13:21You Kingsley's lit the golden ticket on fire
01:13:26Seeing this badge is seeing the owner
01:13:32No one disrespects it
01:13:34No one
01:13:35Forget 50 billion
01:13:37Make it 100
01:13:38200
01:13:39Hell, make it the entire Shadow Alliance
01:13:41If it was the badge owner's orders
01:13:43We'd have to give it over
01:13:44No questions asked
01:13:46The code wasn't bluffing
01:13:47That means that it's the actual Mona Lisa
01:13:51Oh my god
01:13:52I've crushed our entire family's fortune with my own hands
01:13:55You said that ID was yours
01:14:00Who the hell are you, Mr. Slade?
01:14:04I'm sorry
01:14:07What?
01:14:11This badge is your ID?
01:14:13You've all heard the legend, right?
01:14:16How there's a phantom tycoon lurking in the shadows
01:14:20He's a mystery billionaire
01:14:22Who holds the entire economy in the palm of his hand
01:14:26One word from him
01:14:28And blue chip stocks cradle
01:14:31One word
01:14:32And he turns a deadbeat into a star of high society
01:14:35And the only way to identify this mystery man
01:14:40The man who has the power to tilt the world on its axis
01:14:44Is that badge right there?
01:14:47And he is the owner
01:14:49Cole Slade
01:14:51The man behind the mask
01:14:53The real mystery billionaire
01:14:55Mr. Slade
01:14:57I am sorry for speaking out of term
01:15:00Please accept my apologies
01:15:05Lester, really?
01:15:07Please, let's cut the formalities
01:15:08It's a fake, okay?
01:15:11It has to be a fake
01:15:12Lester
01:15:13I want you to bankrupt the van family
01:15:17In three minutes or less
01:15:19Yes, sir
01:15:20I'm sorry, Mr. Slade
01:15:24Please, please
01:15:27Mr. Slade
01:15:29The van group stock has just tanked
01:15:33They are now bankrupt
01:15:35No!
01:15:38No!
01:15:38Get off of me!
01:15:49Since you love him so much
01:15:56You can go keep him company
01:15:58Let's go
01:15:59Vicky
01:16:01We're family
01:16:03I'm your cousin
01:16:05Please don't do this
01:16:07Family
01:16:07My days as a Kingsley are over
01:16:11You walk myself
01:16:15Well now that you Kingsleys are nothing to Victoria
01:16:23I want you to do yourselves a favor and get out of our sight
01:16:28If I were to so much as see your faces again
01:16:31It would be as if the Kingsley name never existed
01:16:34So, Victoria has the Shadow Alliance deal and her parents' research is safe
01:16:43You've accomplished your mission, right?
01:16:46All there's left for you to do is leave her and marry me
01:16:50Victoria, don't
01:16:57Cole, I know you knew my brother
01:17:01I'm safe now, okay?
01:17:04You should go
01:17:06Thank you for everything
01:17:11Victoria
01:17:17Cole, stop
01:17:18You've already done so much for me
01:17:22I can't keep weighing you down
01:17:25Remember when you asked if I ever served in the military?
01:17:32So
01:17:33You're finally ready to tell me
01:17:35I served with your brother, Alex
01:17:37You knew my brother?
01:17:39We were brothers in arms
01:17:40His last words were to keep you safe
01:17:43He's
01:17:44Dead?
01:17:46The mission failed
01:17:47He didn't make it back
01:17:50He didn't want you to know because he was afraid it was going to break you
01:17:54Why didn't you tell me?
01:17:58Why didn't you let me see him one last time?
01:18:00Go
01:18:03I'll take you to him
01:18:05Alex
01:18:09You're such a jerk
01:18:11Do you know how hard it's been?
01:18:15All on my own
01:18:16Everyone tried to tear me apart
01:18:19But now
01:18:20I have Cole
01:18:22I think
01:18:24I think I'm in love with him
01:18:27He's the most powerful man in the Federation
01:18:32I'm not good enough, am I?
01:18:36I'm sure you'd call me stupid again
01:18:37What the hell?
01:18:51Alex
01:18:52Hey man
01:18:54Now you remember our pact
01:19:02Whoever dies first, the other has to wear a wedding dress
01:19:05And now it's for the bride
01:19:08Well that's your sister
01:19:14What?
01:19:17Have you lost your mind?
01:19:19Victoria Kingsley
01:19:20Your brother asked me to guard you for life if he didn't make it back
01:19:25But I don't want to just be a guard too
01:19:28Is this your idea of a proposal in a wedding dress?
01:19:35Just keep my promise
01:19:36I'm marrying you
01:19:38Unless you have a problem with that
01:19:41Idiot
01:19:43Rest easy, my brother
01:19:57I'll protect Victoria for the rest of my life
