00:00:00Let me go.
00:00:03Not a chance, Gray.
00:00:04The cage is locked.
00:00:06I got the cage.
00:00:07Help!
00:00:08Help me!
00:00:09Help me, please!
00:00:15Let the lady go.
00:00:26Shut up, janitor.
00:00:28You stick to your chores.
00:00:30I take it you never heard a snake-eye sledge.
00:00:33Does that name mean anything to you?
00:00:35I never cared much for childish names.
00:00:37Why don't we make this easy and let the lady go?
00:00:40Who the hell do you think you are?
00:00:42Break his legs.
00:00:43Both of them.
00:00:44They're bleeding in the parking garage.
00:00:49Come on, sweetheart.
00:00:50We got plans.
00:00:58It's pretty nice.
00:00:59Who the hell are you?
00:01:16You okay?
00:01:37Don't worry.
00:01:39I'll get you to sleep.
00:01:40You're dead.
00:01:47You hear me?
00:01:48Dead.
00:01:50What the hell are you idiots waiting for?
00:01:52Kill them!
00:01:52Wait!
00:02:07It's the president of Del Caronis.
00:02:09What is she doing here?
00:02:16Don Moretti.
00:02:17You're needed.
00:02:18Don Moretti.
00:02:21Holy fuck!
00:02:24I am fucked!
00:02:27How many times have I told you not to bother me?
00:02:30Unless someone is dying or we're going bankrupt.
00:02:33So what is it?
00:02:33The board has convened.
00:02:35They're requesting you chair the meeting.
00:02:37The board can't handle himself?
00:02:39Tell him to wait till morning.
00:02:41I've got plans for my son.
00:02:42I'm sorry, sir.
00:02:45I don't think this one can wait.
00:02:48Who's she?
00:02:50It's a long story.
00:02:51Just get her home safe.
00:02:52And, uh, what do you want me to do with them?
00:03:10Idiots?
00:03:11Put the damn knives away.
00:03:12We're in public.
00:03:13People are going to get hurt.
00:03:16This was a total misunderstanding.
00:03:18Mr. Don Moretti, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
00:03:21You can call me Richie.
00:03:24Richie?
00:03:26What happened to tough guy, snake-eyed sledge?
00:03:31I stand before you, but a worm.
00:03:34Unworthy of your attention.
00:03:36It's a misunderstanding.
00:03:38It's a mistake.
00:03:39If you ever slither near a woman like that again,
00:03:43I will skin you alive and make a nice vlog for myself.
00:03:48Now, get out of my sight.
00:04:00What the hell was that?
00:04:06Dad?
00:04:08Babe, what are you looking at?
00:04:11Oh, nothing.
00:04:12I mean, it's my baby.
00:04:14My...
00:04:14seed?
00:04:15Yeah, I'll see you.
00:04:22Before the meeting, the annual report for Desert Crown Police.
00:04:39Hey, Aaron.
00:04:39Hey, were you just outside of the Desert Crown?
00:04:42Thought I just saw you.
00:04:43Oh, you must be tired, kiddo.
00:04:46I'm running errands across town.
00:04:49Don't stay out too late, okay?
00:04:51Yeah, okay, Dad.
00:04:52I'm just dropping Vanessa off.
00:04:54Oh, and by the way, I signed you up for a dating website.
00:04:58You've got a blind date tomorrow.
00:05:00What?
00:05:00A blind date?
00:05:01What?
00:05:04A blind date?
00:05:06A blind date?
00:05:08The kid's lost his mind.
00:05:10His heart's in the right place, I'm sure.
00:05:12His heart, maybe.
00:05:13But his brain is...
00:05:15completely set to airplane mode.
00:05:17How long are you planning on hiding your identity from him?
00:05:23I promised his mother I'd look after him.
00:05:26Keep him grounded, raise him right.
00:05:29But I'm worried he's too good-hearted.
00:05:31He always sees the best in people, but never the bad.
00:05:36He's a long way from taking over for me.
00:05:39You'd really move mountains for him, wouldn't you?
00:05:50What's that?
00:05:51The heart of the ocean.
00:05:52Or your date tomorrow.
00:05:54Your diamonds tend to go over well with the lake.
00:05:58Don't remind me.
00:05:59So you're Fear of Spring.
00:06:12Minus the filter and professional lightings.
00:06:15Look, I'm not here to waste time.
00:06:18If you want to marry me, you better have a six-figure income.
00:06:23I'm sorry.
00:06:25Go on.
00:06:26Yeah, my son's getting married,
00:06:27so he's going to need a home
00:06:29and also a car.
00:06:33Something European,
00:06:34like a Mercedes or a Porsche.
00:06:37Oh, and I'm going to need a monthly allowance.
00:06:41You know, for like hair, Botox, nails, designer bags.
00:06:46Yeah, I'm thinking $10,000 a month.
00:06:49Should probably cover.
00:06:50Oh, I'm sorry.
00:06:53But do you see walking ATM tattooed on my forehead?
00:06:56ATM?
00:06:59Ugh.
00:07:00What I'm giving you is practically a clearance sale.
00:07:06Don't worry.
00:07:07I'll get you the suit.
00:07:11Oh, my God.
00:07:13It's him.
00:07:15Miss Springs,
00:07:16can I ask you something?
00:07:18What exactly are you going to bring to this relationship?
00:07:23Me?
00:07:25Well, I'm a housewife.
00:07:28But my son is in development at Meridian Ventures,
00:07:32the biggest company in Nevada.
00:07:34So if you marry me,
00:07:37you can ride his coattails straight to retirement.
00:07:41Speaking of,
00:07:42what do you do for a living?
00:07:44Oh, you're going to be very disappointed.
00:07:47I do the odd job here and there.
00:07:49Whatever it takes to pay minimum wage.
00:07:52Minimum wage?
00:07:57Are you kidding me?
00:07:59Oh, do you usually do this on days?
00:08:01Like, waste people's time?
00:08:03That's hard.
00:08:04We found him.
00:08:05The man who saved me last night.
00:08:07Michael Smith.
00:08:08He's a local.
00:08:09Would you like me to send him the same cue?
00:08:11No.
00:08:12I'll deliver it in person.
00:08:15Come on, show a little respect.
00:08:17Respect is earned with money.
00:08:22And you're broke.
00:08:25Everyone, take a look at this loser
00:08:27who decides to show up on a date
00:08:30with nothing but the clothes on his back.
00:08:34Listen, lady.
00:08:35If I'm not who you're looking for,
00:08:37feel free to walk through that door.
00:08:39Let's not make a scene.
00:08:40Who would want you?
00:08:42I mean, you're old.
00:08:44What woman would ever want you?
00:08:47I would.
00:08:51And who the hell are you?
00:08:53Someone who knows a real man when she sees one.
00:08:55The date's over.
00:08:56He's with me now.
00:09:01You would actually want this penniless old loser?
00:09:05I mean, you must be truly desperate.
00:09:08Shut your mouth before I shut it for you.
00:09:11Oh, so threatening.
00:09:13You don't scare me.
00:09:18Oh.
00:09:21How dare you hit me?
00:09:23Say another word and I'll do it again.
00:09:24Ha ha.
00:09:25You have no idea who you're messing with.
00:09:28My son is very powerful at Meridian Ventures.
00:09:32You're finished.
00:09:34Oh, it's the Ventures.
00:09:35How interesting.
00:09:38Yeah.
00:09:38Tell him I'm waiting.
00:09:40Oh, okay.
00:09:41Okay.
00:09:41Hugh.
00:09:46Get in here now.
00:09:48Your mother is being harassed.
00:09:55Who in the hell dares to put their hands on my mother?
00:09:58These two, son.
00:10:00You?
00:10:01Some washed up old man and what?
00:10:03A bitch with some nerve?
00:10:04Ah.
00:10:06Wait.
00:10:08You look familiar.
00:10:11Think about it real hard.
00:10:13Who am I?
00:10:20Whatever.
00:10:21You know what?
00:10:22Whoever messes with my mom,
00:10:23well,
00:10:24they made the price.
00:10:27Stop.
00:10:28How dare you threaten the president of Meridian Ventures?
00:10:37How dare you threaten the president of Meridian Ventures?
00:10:42The president?
00:10:44Yeah, that's right.
00:10:47Hugh Springs, is it?
00:10:48Consider this your official and immediate termination.
00:10:54Take your disgrace of a mother and get out of my sight.
00:11:03How dare you?
00:11:04Bye.
00:11:04Thank you, Claire.
00:11:10I don't believe we've been properly introduced.
00:11:13Though I owe you my life.
00:11:15That bit with the poker chips was impressive.
00:11:17How did you know it was me?
00:11:19I'm the CEO and president of Meridian Ventures.
00:11:21If I want to find someone,
00:11:23nobody can stop me.
00:11:25No, it looks like you're missing your date.
00:11:26Do you mind if I fill in?
00:11:30Well, it wouldn't be a date if I was all alone now, would it?
00:11:33Indeed.
00:11:33What possibly makes you interested in me?
00:11:38I'm just a casino maintenance worker.
00:11:41I hardly scrape by.
00:11:43Money doesn't matter.
00:11:45I have more money than I know what to do with.
00:11:47But character, that's rare.
00:11:50I'm older than you.
00:11:52It's fine.
00:11:53I'm into it.
00:11:53How about this?
00:11:56I've got a 20-year-old son.
00:11:59A perfectly made family just waiting for the right woman to walk in?
00:12:03It's perfect.
00:12:05Anything else?
00:12:07I...
00:12:07I...
00:12:08I...
00:12:08I...
00:12:10am out of objections.
00:12:12Great.
00:12:12Let's get going.
00:12:13Whoa, where to?
00:12:15To get married.
00:12:16We're...
00:12:16We're in Vegas.
00:12:18Okay, let me just catch my breath.
00:12:20I...
00:12:20If we do this, I've got three ground rules.
00:12:30Okay, I'm listening.
00:12:31Number one, you spend your own money.
00:12:34I don't want anyone thinking that I'm a gold digger.
00:12:37Okay, I can do that.
00:12:38Second, boundaries.
00:12:40We give each other space.
00:12:42Mutual respect.
00:12:44Minimal meddling.
00:12:45And third?
00:12:51My son never had a mother.
00:12:53We're married.
00:12:54I want you to treat him like your own.
00:12:56Deal.
00:12:57I can do that.
00:12:59Now, before you find any more rules, can we get going?
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:02Things are moving fast.
00:13:14Speed is a new romance.
00:13:15All the kids are doing it.
00:13:16Gotta keep up with the time.
00:13:18Well, maybe I'm old-fashioned, but at least it's legally binding.
00:13:23You've got a good sense of humor, too.
00:13:25Oh, I'm full of surprises.
00:13:27Oh, that reminds me.
00:13:28I got you a little something.
00:13:35For me?
00:13:35I hope you don't have something like this already.
00:13:40Oh, my God.
00:13:41That's beautiful.
00:13:44Do you mind if I...
00:13:46Yeah.
00:13:47Okay.
00:13:58How do I look?
00:14:00You make it look more beautiful than it ever was.
00:14:04Okay, Romeo.
00:14:05I've got some meetings to catch, but...
00:14:07See you later, okay?
00:14:08Okay.
00:14:08Okay.
00:14:17Sir, she's gone.
00:14:22You can close your mouth now.
00:14:24Oh, cut me some slack.
00:14:26Sophia, do you think she really knows who I am?
00:14:29Impossible.
00:14:31Your identity is buried really deep.
00:14:33Only a handful of people know the truth.
00:14:35But why would someone like her want to be with someone like me?
00:14:38I'm just a maintenance worker.
00:14:41You did save her life.
00:14:42Or maybe she sees something in you that the rest of the world doesn't.
00:14:48Yeah.
00:14:59It's hard.
00:15:01I came across a few things about Michael's son.
00:15:04Aaron?
00:15:05Mm-hmm.
00:15:06His fiance works for us.
00:15:08Vanessa Cole.
00:15:10She's an intern in administration.
00:15:11She just started a month ago.
00:15:13Intern?
00:15:14Call HR.
00:15:15Have her promoted to director of administration.
00:15:18But Ms. Hubbard, she...
00:15:19She started three weeks ago,
00:15:21and she has no experience or qualification.
00:15:25She's family now.
00:15:26My family.
00:15:28We'll help her.
00:15:29Run to her.
00:15:29We'll go onto the wrong.
00:15:30Okay.
00:15:38Is that Michael?
00:15:44Hello, Tiff.
00:15:46You made it.
00:15:47Girl, you booked Desert Crown for your birthday?
00:15:50My Instagram's about to explode.
00:15:52Aaron must have maxed out every credit card he owns.
00:15:55Maybe sold a kidney, too.
00:15:58Anything for my girl.
00:15:59Thank you, sweetie.
00:16:00Mm-hmm.
00:16:01Mm-hmm.
00:16:02Mm-hmm.
00:16:03Mm-hmm.
00:16:03Mm-hmm.
00:16:03Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:04Mm-hmm.
00:16:05Mm-hmm.
00:16:05Mm-hmm.
00:16:06Mm-hmm.
00:16:06Mm-hmm.
00:16:06Oh, my God.
00:16:16It's Brandon Reed.
00:16:19Sorry, I'm late.
00:16:21We couldn't have booked this lounge without you.
00:16:23You know, money doesn't go all the way.
00:16:27Say thank you.
00:16:28Thanks, Brandon.
00:16:30Don't thank me.
00:16:31Thank the family.
00:16:32Oh, and my father is actually going to sweat.
00:16:36It's going by later, so don't get all weird about it, you know.
00:16:39He hates ass kissers or suckers.
00:16:43I'll thank him personally.
00:16:47My friend has got it all.
00:16:48Connections, talent, look, and he's the youngest manager at Meridian Ventures.
00:16:53Like, how?
00:16:55Well, I can tell he's dork.
00:16:56Say, these quarterly numbers are looking solid.
00:16:59I am happy with your contribution.
00:17:02Thank you, sir.
00:17:03With dad.
00:17:04One more thing.
00:17:04I want to expand our charitable foundation.
00:17:07Starting next quarter, dedicating 5% annual revenue.
00:17:13Dad?
00:17:16Dad?
00:17:18Aaron, your dad is here?
00:17:20Wait, that's your dad?
00:17:22What's he do, exactly?
00:17:29Ladies and gentlemen, the valet parking is just around the corner.
00:17:33I can show you.
00:17:34No, we'll find our own way.
00:17:39Dad, what are you doing here?
00:17:40Just picking up some temp work.
00:17:44They needed a few extra hands for a convention.
00:17:47200 bucks a day, cash.
00:17:55Hey, Vanessa.
00:17:57Happy birthday, sweetheart.
00:17:59Thanks.
00:18:01200 bucks a day.
00:18:02Jesus!
00:18:06So, what are you kids doing here?
00:18:10It's Vanessa's birthday.
00:18:13We're celebrating.
00:18:14In this place?
00:18:16Seems a bit expensive.
00:18:18Dad, it's fine.
00:18:19Really.
00:18:20Okay, I'll just let you guys go.
00:18:23See you later.
00:18:23Hold up, valet boy.
00:18:29Park my car.
00:18:35Are you talking to me?
00:18:37Yeah, you.
00:18:39And be careful with it.
00:18:40Okay, you put a scratch on my ride
00:18:42and I'll have you paying me back
00:18:43with organs.
00:18:46Brandon, what the hell, man?
00:18:47That's my dad.
00:18:48So?
00:18:49He works here, doesn't he?
00:18:50Staff, park, cars.
00:18:52That's how it works.
00:18:58There.
00:18:58Now it's a paid service.
00:19:01Do you still feel
00:19:02disrespected?
00:19:04It's easy money.
00:19:17Thanks for the tip.
00:19:21Dad.
00:19:21Oh, and
00:19:23after you've parked the car,
00:19:25stop by our private room, okay?
00:19:27We'll need someone
00:19:28to pour our drinks.
00:19:30Right, guys?
00:19:31Absolutely.
00:19:33That's enough, Brandon.
00:19:35What's the problem?
00:19:36I mean, I'm doing
00:19:37your family a favor.
00:19:38Seems like your family
00:19:38could use a bit of extra money.
00:19:41Brandon, you fucking...
00:19:42Easy, son.
00:19:44It's okay.
00:19:47My God.
00:19:48This is crazy.
00:19:55I'm gonna...
00:19:56go to the party.
00:20:02Aaron, sweetie.
00:20:03Could you maybe tell your dad
00:20:04not to mention you work here?
00:20:06I want him entering my party
00:20:07with, like, a broom or something.
00:20:08That would be...
00:20:08How embarrassing.
00:20:10Wait up for me!
00:20:11I know, I'm so excited!
00:20:19Go for it, son.
00:20:20Thanks, Aaron.
00:20:25Hey, it's my shift.
00:20:30Thank you, everyone, for coming.
00:20:32And thank you to my amazing
00:20:33fiance, Aaron.
00:20:35He's the reason for this whole party.
00:20:36Stop it, guys.
00:20:44Anything for you, Vanessa.
00:20:50Just one moment.
00:20:53Ben, it's the head of HR.
00:20:55It's for you.
00:20:55Is everything okay?
00:20:59Congratulations, Vanessa Cole.
00:21:01Effective immediately,
00:21:02you're being promoted
00:21:03to director of administration.
00:21:04Base salary, two million,
00:21:06plus a corner office.
00:21:08Oh, me?
00:21:09Me, director?
00:21:10Man, that's incredible.
00:21:11Two million?
00:21:12You made it.
00:21:13President Hart must really see
00:21:14something special in you.
00:21:15Your future's set.
00:21:17Hell, even I'm jealous.
00:21:18We're at Inventures.
00:21:21That's everyone's company.
00:21:26I'm sorry.
00:21:26I need a moment.
00:21:28It's all so sudden.
00:21:29Wait, is this for real?
00:21:31I mean, you just started
00:21:31as an intern, what?
00:21:33Three weeks ago?
00:21:34How can somebody
00:21:34jump straight to director?
00:21:37What's that supposed to mean, huh?
00:21:39What?
00:21:39You think she can't do it?
00:21:41She's not enough?
00:21:42Sounds like jealousy of me.
00:21:45No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:46She's my fiancée.
00:21:47Of course I want her to succeed,
00:21:48but this?
00:21:49This doesn't make any sense.
00:21:51What?
00:21:52You don't think I deserve it?
00:21:54What?
00:21:55You don't think I deserve it?
00:21:56No, Vanessa, that's not what I...
00:21:57Don't even talk to me.
00:21:58Enough of this drama.
00:22:00Hey, you.
00:22:01Over here.
00:22:03Yes?
00:22:04You.
00:22:05Over here.
00:22:06Here, boy.
00:22:07Woo-hoo-hoo.
00:22:07Can't whistle, but just get here.
00:22:09Okay, so...
00:22:10Uh, this...
00:22:11This is champagne.
00:22:12It's from France.
00:22:14That's a country across many oceans.
00:22:16Water.
00:22:17Have you heard of it?
00:22:18So it's very expensive.
00:22:20Oh.
00:22:22But, you know, I'm feeling quite generous,
00:22:26so what I'll do
00:22:27is I'll give you this glass of expensive champagne
00:22:30if you raise a toast
00:22:32to our beautiful friend Vanessa
00:22:34and tell everyone
00:22:35just how wrong Aaron is about her.
00:22:38Brandon, what the hell, dude?
00:22:39Leave my dad out of this.
00:22:40Why?
00:22:41I'm doing him a favor.
00:22:42I mean, how else would he be able
00:22:44to afford such fine spirits?
00:22:47Mmm, you want it?
00:22:48What's the problem, Aaron?
00:22:49You don't want someone
00:22:50to say something nice about me?
00:22:52Vanessa, how could you say that?
00:22:53My dad has nothing to do with this.
00:22:55Leave him out of it.
00:22:56I just got...
00:22:57Director!
00:22:58Is that not a cause for celebration?
00:23:03Mmm.
00:23:04Mmm.
00:23:05Hello?
00:23:06Michael, where are you?
00:23:09I'm a bit sore.
00:23:12He's busy toasting
00:23:13the birthday girl, Vanessa!
00:23:17Vanessa?
00:23:18Is he her daughter-in-law?
00:23:19No, no, no, sorry.
00:23:20Nope.
00:23:21Not daughter-in-law.
00:23:22No, I would never marry
00:23:23into the family, old hag.
00:23:29Old hag?
00:23:31Claire, has the promotion letter
00:23:33been delivered?
00:23:34It should have arrived.
00:23:35Great.
00:23:35Prepare the gift.
00:23:36I'm going there myself.
00:23:41Vanessa, are...
00:23:42Are you saying
00:23:44you won't marry me?
00:23:44Yes.
00:23:45Yes, you heard that right.
00:23:46We're done.
00:23:46It's over.
00:23:48But...
00:23:48But why?
00:23:49Excuse me.
00:23:51Is our Miss Vanessa Cole here?
00:23:53Me?
00:23:54That's me.
00:23:55Your official promotion letter
00:23:56from your own ventures.
00:23:58Oh, thank you.
00:23:59Congratulations.
00:23:59Thanks.
00:24:05Aaron,
00:24:05you want to desperately
00:24:06know why,
00:24:07I'll tell you.
00:24:08I did this on my own.
00:24:13By myself,
00:24:14President Evelyn Hart.
00:24:16She saw my achievements.
00:24:19She saw what I could do.
00:24:21I went from intern to director
00:24:22in no time
00:24:24at a trillion,
00:24:25trillion dollar company.
00:24:26What have you accomplished?
00:24:30Nothing.
00:24:31Oh, what?
00:24:31So I'm not good enough
00:24:32for you anymore?
00:24:33Basically.
00:24:34Dude, face it.
00:24:35She's moved up.
00:24:36She's out of your league.
00:24:37She's on another level.
00:24:38Whatever you need
00:24:39to understand it.
00:24:41And after today,
00:24:42Vanessa headed
00:24:43to the penthouse
00:24:44while you'll
00:24:45still be crawling
00:24:46in the gutter.
00:24:47Five years together,
00:24:52Vanessa.
00:24:53All erased
00:24:53by some piece of paper.
00:24:56Okay, listen, listen.
00:24:57I need just somebody
00:24:58who can stand by me,
00:24:59not bring me down.
00:25:01Um, think of it like this.
00:25:02You're a liability.
00:25:04Yes, not an asset.
00:25:06Oh, fine.
00:25:07I get it now.
00:25:08It's all my fault
00:25:09for just aiming
00:25:09out of my league, huh?
00:25:11Old flag, huh?
00:25:17But still makes them
00:25:17think that you
00:25:18disrespect me and my friend.
00:25:29Son,
00:25:30sometimes it's better
00:25:32to see someone's true colors
00:25:33rather sooner than later.
00:25:35It's never easy, though.
00:25:37Yeah, Dad, you're right.
00:25:38I just...
00:25:39I just hate myself
00:25:40for being so blind,
00:25:42for not seeing
00:25:42who she really was.
00:25:46There's no need for hate.
00:25:48All we can do
00:25:49is learn from our mistakes
00:25:50and do better next time.
00:25:52Lord knows I've made
00:25:54plenty of mistakes.
00:25:56How do you think
00:25:57the old man
00:25:57got where he is today?
00:26:00Yeah, Dad, I get it.
00:26:02Can we just go now?
00:26:03Yeah.
00:26:06Whoa, hold on, go.
00:26:08You think you can
00:26:09leave that easy?
00:26:09Yes, hold on a minute.
00:26:11I mean, what's the rush?
00:26:12What else could you
00:26:13possibly want from us?
00:26:15An apology?
00:26:17You embarrass me
00:26:18in front of everyone.
00:26:19You question my promotion
00:26:21in front of everyone.
00:26:23Why don't we just
00:26:24step back and
00:26:25cool off a bit?
00:26:29Cool off?
00:26:30Dad.
00:26:31Cool off.
00:26:32Dad.
00:26:32I'm going to make this
00:26:34very simple for you.
00:26:36You leave
00:26:36when I say so.
00:26:41When Vanessa gives you
00:26:43an order,
00:26:43you follow it.
00:26:45Unless you want me
00:26:46to break your legs.
00:26:48Why don't you calm down
00:26:49before you do something
00:26:50you'll regret?
00:26:53Regret?
00:26:54Please.
00:26:57Dad, let me handle this.
00:26:59Vanessa?
00:27:04Director Vanessa?
00:27:05There you go.
00:27:07I'm sorry.
00:27:09I shouldn't have
00:27:10questioned you.
00:27:11You clearly earned
00:27:12this position.
00:27:13You deserve it.
00:27:14I did.
00:27:14And I hope you're happy
00:27:15with your new life.
00:27:21Yay.
00:27:22I got it, Dad.
00:27:31We're in this together, son.
00:27:40Jump.
00:27:41I didn't play no games.
00:27:43Wouldn't let her
00:27:43trade her name
00:27:44for a fake adieu.
00:27:47Boy, you better know
00:27:48what you're getting into.
00:27:50Can we go now?
00:28:01What a boy!
00:28:03Now, here's your reward!
00:28:05Why don't you take it?
00:28:19Peck it.
00:28:20Crawl out like
00:28:21the dog you are!
00:28:23Ha ha ha ha!
00:28:23No!
00:28:24No!
00:28:25No!
00:28:25No!
00:28:25No!
00:28:26No!
00:28:26No!
00:28:26No!
00:28:27No!
00:28:27No!
00:28:27No!
00:28:28No!
00:28:28No!
00:28:28No!
00:28:29No!
00:28:30No!
00:28:31No!
00:28:32No!
00:28:33No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:34No!
00:28:35No!
00:28:38Crawl like dogs?
00:28:43You've got some nerve.
00:28:45You've got some nerve.
00:28:49President Hart,
00:28:50this is all just a big
00:28:52misunderstanding.
00:28:53These two, they, uh...
00:28:55They, uh...
00:28:56They snuck in to the event.
00:28:57I'm throwing them out.
00:28:58I might have been a big...
00:28:59Do you think I'm blind?
00:29:03I'll deal with you later.
00:29:05Read it.
00:29:08This isn't right.
00:29:09Something's odd.
00:29:11One villa at the Desert Crown Resort.
00:29:14One limited edition Maserati.
00:29:19And ten luxury items.
00:29:23Including the tech relief, Rolex, and Hermes people.
00:29:30And a check for ten million dollars.
00:29:38What the hell?
00:29:39Oh my god.
00:29:40This has to be for you.
00:29:42For me?
00:29:43Think about it.
00:29:44I mean, you went from intern to director in one day.
00:29:48I mean, she obviously sees something special in you.
00:29:50And she came here to personally congratulate you.
00:29:53I didn't really think so.
00:29:56Hi, she's coming.
00:29:58I don't deserve this honor.
00:29:59Wait, those aren't for Vanessa?
00:30:07What?
00:30:08Aaron Smith, this is for you.
00:30:18For me?
00:30:20No, this can't be true.
00:30:23Give me that.
00:30:23Hi, President Hart.
00:30:25I think you had a mistake.
00:30:26You can see.
00:30:27I am the one you value.
00:30:28I am the one that you made director.
00:30:30And Aaron, you see, he's just a nobody.
00:30:33I know.
00:30:36You think you're worthy of these gifts?
00:30:39You're not even worthy of the paper that you're printed on.
00:30:42Aaron, Aaron, it's so wonderful to finally meet you.
00:30:56I wasn't sure what you'd like, so I just got you a little bit of everything.
00:31:00I hope it's okay.
00:31:01But, uh, you and I, we've never met before.
00:31:07Why are you giving me all these things?
00:31:10Michael, you haven't mentioned me yet?
00:31:14I haven't found the right moment yet.
00:31:18I'm sorry, what exactly is your relationship with these two losers?
00:31:21Oh, you want to know?
00:31:26Do the words, old hag, ring any bells?
00:31:30What?
00:31:33Michael, I imagine this is as good a time as any to let the boy know.
00:31:37Ted, what's going on?
00:31:39Son, I'd like you to meet somebody.
00:31:42This is Evelyn Hart.
00:31:44My wife.
00:31:45Wife?
00:31:47It's true.
00:31:48Although, like, once we get to know each other better, I'd prefer you call me more.
00:31:51But, Mom?
00:31:52Dad, what the fuck?
00:31:54Yeah, you've been on my case all these years about finding somebody.
00:31:57Well, I did.
00:31:59What have I done?
00:32:02Seems like nobody here thinks I got any game.
00:32:05Don't worry about it, babe.
00:32:06I know what I got.
00:32:13Eve, uh, these gifts.
00:32:14They're too much.
00:32:16You should take them back.
00:32:18Eve, they're nothing.
00:32:19They're tokens.
00:32:20We had an agreement.
00:32:23Fine.
00:32:25Aaron can decide.
00:32:26Whether you keep them or not, that's up to you.
00:32:37Look, I appreciate your generosity.
00:32:39I do.
00:32:40But, I'm young.
00:32:42And, I'm capable.
00:32:45I'd rather earn these things than have them handed to me.
00:32:48I can't breathe.
00:32:56I can't breathe.
00:32:57Dan, had you not broken up with him, he would have been the daughter-in-law of President Hart.
00:33:02And you could have ran Maradie Inventures one day.
00:33:04No, that's really helpful.
00:33:07I had my whole future set and planned, and I just ruined it.
00:33:10Like, in any case, maybe no matter.
00:33:12Aaron still has feelings for you.
00:33:14I can tell.
00:33:16Maybe you can get him back.
00:33:17After everything I said, after everything I've done?
00:33:20Who cares about pride?
00:33:22Okay?
00:33:23All you have to do is think about the life that you want.
00:33:25All you have to imagine is wearing your Chanel earrings and carrying the latest Hermes bag to your new Maserati.
00:33:32Move.
00:33:35Aaron.
00:33:38Aaron, can we talk?
00:33:39About what?
00:33:41We have been together for five years.
00:33:43That has to mean something, right?
00:33:45Listen, I messed up.
00:33:46I know that, but...
00:33:48Can't you forgive me?
00:33:49It's so easy.
00:33:55Always has been.
00:33:57You humiliated me today, Aaron.
00:33:59I'll make sure you do that later.
00:34:00Get your dirty hands off me.
00:34:03Aaron, you...
00:34:06Aaron, you...
00:34:08I gave you five years of my life.
00:34:11And the second you got a taste of power, you tossed me aside like garbage.
00:34:16You even insulted my father to his face.
00:34:19Wow.
00:34:21You really thought I'd take you back.
00:34:23I apologized.
00:34:24What else am I supposed to do?
00:34:25Honestly, Vanessa.
00:34:27I liked you better when you were arrogant.
00:34:30At least then you were being honest about who you really are.
00:34:32Please, we can fix this.
00:34:33I'll be so much better, I promise.
00:34:35We can start over.
00:34:37Yeah, I guess...
00:34:37Not a chance.
00:34:40I'm not following you up whatever ladder you think you're climbing.
00:34:43So what?
00:34:44You're just going to let me be damaged?
00:34:47You dug your own grave.
00:34:49Don't blame anyone else.
00:34:54I'm proud of you, son.
00:34:56There's more and better things for you out there.
00:34:58One day you'll find out what you deserve.
00:35:00She wasn't worth your time.
00:35:02Wasn't worth his time?
00:35:06That'll be your immediate dismissal.
00:35:09You will never be associated with my company ever again.
00:35:14And Brandon, you're fired too.
00:35:17Fine.
00:35:18You think I really care about that job?
00:35:20What are we going to do?
00:35:23Relax.
00:35:24You've still got me.
00:35:26In fact, I think it's about time you learned who I really was.
00:35:31My father is Anthony Reed.
00:35:36He's the senior VP at Desert Crown Holdings.
00:35:40What?
00:35:43If that's true, why were you working at Meridian Ventures?
00:35:47For her.
00:35:49Me?
00:35:49Honestly, Vanessa, Meridian is not worth your time.
00:35:53I mean, one word from me and you are in like that with Desert Crown.
00:35:58You've got better pay, better position, better everything.
00:36:01Are you serious?
00:36:02Would I lie to you?
00:36:03Then I need some help with these two losers.
00:36:07And that bitch.
00:36:09Because she slapped me twice and it hurt.
00:36:11So pay back.
00:36:12Double.
00:36:13Consider it done.
00:36:14I've actually already made the call.
00:36:17We've got a special guest coming.
00:36:19The Terror of the Strip.
00:36:21Jade Torres!
00:36:23Jade Torres?
00:36:25As in the woman who killed 12 men with her own weapons?
00:36:28You don't mean the right hand of Sludge himself?
00:36:31Snake eyes?
00:36:32I called in a favor.
00:36:34I told her we needed some backup.
00:36:36Trust me, it was not easy to manage.
00:36:38Jade Torres, now we're in trouble.
00:36:43Jade.
00:36:47That's your big threat?
00:36:49She's more than a threat.
00:36:51They say Snake Eyes has order over all of Nevada because of her alone.
00:36:55She has a ruthless reputation.
00:36:56We have to be ready.
00:36:57Get all of our security in here now.
00:37:00Oh my god, they're already shaking.
00:37:01Listen, you want payback?
00:37:04Fine.
00:37:05You settle it with me.
00:37:06Leave my father and Evelyn out of this.
00:37:09Oh gosh.
00:37:10Ignore them, Vanessa.
00:37:12Jade will be here any minute.
00:37:14And then they'll learn what happens when you go out of your league.
00:37:17Oh, my hero.
00:37:19Oh, and you'll show me just how grateful you are later.
00:37:23You honestly think one phone call is going to win this for you?
00:37:27And why wouldn't it?
00:37:28Because not even Snake Eyes would dare to talk to me the way you are right now.
00:37:32Who the hell said that?
00:37:45Oh, Jade.
00:37:47You're here.
00:37:48Thank God you're here.
00:37:49We have a bit of a situation that requires your expertise.
00:37:57Well, lucky me.
00:37:58Because I was having a slow night.
00:38:00And then you called about a nobody with the nerve to disrespect my boss.
00:38:07Oh, I wouldn't miss that for the world.
00:38:09You did this to yourself, old man.
00:38:12Running your mouth about things you don't understand.
00:38:15Make them hurt.
00:38:16But show them what happens when you disrespect a legend.
00:38:21And those two, they're with him.
00:38:24Good.
00:38:25Then they can all bleed together.
00:38:27Eve, Aaron, this is about to get messy.
00:38:30Please both sneak out the back while you have a chance.
00:38:35I'm not leaving you, Dad.
00:38:37You're my husband, Michael.
00:38:38I'm not leaving.
00:38:40Not while I'm still breathing.
00:38:42How touching.
00:38:43The happy little family.
00:38:45Well, too bad Evelyn is just some businesswoman who likes to play dress-up.
00:38:49What are you going to do against Jade?
00:38:51File a lawsuit?
00:38:53I'm going to make this simple.
00:38:55Whatever you want.
00:38:56Name your price.
00:38:57Money.
00:38:58Connections.
00:38:59Favors.
00:39:00Just leave my family out of it.
00:39:02And you'll have it all.
00:39:05Just leave my family out of it.
00:39:07And you'll have it all.
00:39:09Eve.
00:39:09Oh, what's this?
00:39:12The great Evelyn Hart begging for mercy?
00:39:15Yeah, that's right.
00:39:17So let's talk business.
00:39:18What'll it be?
00:39:20Name it.
00:39:21I'll pay it.
00:39:22Tempting.
00:39:23You know, under different circumstances, I would probably consider that.
00:39:28But I'm afraid not this time.
00:39:31What do you mean?
00:39:33This man blatantly disrespected my boss.
00:39:37And that is an action that cannot be excused.
00:39:41Please, you didn't mean anything by it.
00:39:43Just tell me what it'll take.
00:39:44You really don't get it, do you?
00:39:46Some debts can pay the cash.
00:39:49Richard Sledge is the only person in the world I respect.
00:39:52But I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I let this slide.
00:39:57Evelyn, there's no need to beg on my behalf.
00:40:00I've got one question.
00:40:02What does your boss think you're doing here right now?
00:40:03How dare you mention him?
00:40:05What does Richard Sledge think is happening in this room right now?
00:40:09Oh, since when does Snake Eyes need to give permission to Jay Torres to handle trash like you?
00:40:15I'll give you one more chance.
00:40:17Call him before things get worse.
00:40:19Now, don't run into him.
00:40:22He's stalling.
00:40:24My boss doesn't have time for small-time garbage like you.
00:40:28Trust me.
00:40:30I'm doing him a favor by getting rid of you right here, right now.
00:40:35Oh, really?
00:40:37So why would Richard Sledge dare to come out here and face me?
00:40:42And when did he just let his people just run wild without consequences?
00:40:46Dad.
00:40:49Richard Sledge.
00:40:52Three minutes.
00:40:54If he's late, anyone bearing the name Sledge will be banned within 100 miles of the strip.
00:41:02Forever.
00:41:03Adam Harlow.
00:41:06What are the chances?
00:41:08I can polish the Don face to face.
00:41:11You?
00:41:12An audience with the Don?
00:41:15Don't be absurd.
00:41:19Three minutes.
00:41:20If he's late, anyone bearing the name Sledge will be banned within 100 miles of the strip.
00:41:26Forever.
00:41:27Copy that.
00:41:27Looks like it's your lucky day after all.
00:41:31What do you mean?
00:41:32The Don's requesting your immediate presence in the private.
00:41:35I suggest you not be late.
00:41:37I won't.
00:41:38I won't let you down either.
00:41:41Did you hear this?
00:41:43He just fake called Richard Sledge.
00:41:47Hello.
00:41:48Richard?
00:41:48Are you there?
00:41:49Are you there, Richard?
00:41:50I'm sorry, but Michael, no one is believing that.
00:41:55Come on.
00:41:56Come on.
00:41:58Yeah, look, if he does turn up, I will eat dog shit on Livestream.
00:42:04Don't worry, Evelyn.
00:42:05I got this under control.
00:42:06Michael, how could you?
00:42:07Enough, Gabe.
00:42:08First, you disrespect Richard, and now you mock me?
00:42:13You think I'm someone you can toy with?
00:42:15I advise you to wait.
00:42:17I'm not waiting.
00:42:18I have enough of that.
00:42:20All I want right now is this old man's blood on the floor.
00:42:23You want my dad?
00:42:25Come through me first.
00:42:26Oh, beautiful.
00:42:27So you can all die together.
00:42:29Take them out.
00:42:30Take them out.
00:42:38Everyone, stand down.
00:42:59Right.
00:43:00Don doesn't want anyone knowing.
00:43:06The father actually came.
00:43:09It's very impossible.
00:43:11Mr. Sledge, you're not really here for him, right?
00:43:23Because of him?
00:43:25Does that look like someone's errand boy?
00:43:26Watch your mouth.
00:43:27Of course.
00:43:28My apologies, sir.
00:43:29My mistake.
00:43:30Mr. Sledge, I wasn't expecting you.
00:43:35This is just a small matter.
00:43:37I had it all handled.
00:43:39Oh, God.
00:43:41Small matter.
00:43:44Is that what this looks like?
00:43:45I don't understand.
00:43:47I was just doing my job, protecting your honor.
00:43:51Why are you angry at me?
00:43:53Exactly.
00:43:54We all saw it.
00:43:55This guy has been disrespecting you all night.
00:43:58He's been claiming he could snap his fingers and you just come running.
00:44:02She was defending your honor.
00:44:04Sir, I'm just going to eat my dog shit.
00:44:07Don't worry.
00:44:12I've got this under control.
00:44:16Mr. Smith, I apologize for my subordinates.
00:44:21They're going to be dealt with however you see fit.
00:44:24I think you should teach your people some restraint.
00:44:28Sir, what are you...
00:44:32Enough!
00:44:34In this organization, honor comes first.
00:44:37Always.
00:44:38You think you could throw my name around like some sort of weapon?
00:44:41Intimidate whoever you want?
00:44:42If I ever hear about anything like this happen ever again, you're going to wish the only thing I did was fire you.
00:44:51But since when do we...
00:44:53Since I said so.
00:44:54And what I say is law.
00:44:55The rest of you, put your damn weapons down.
00:45:04Now!
00:45:07Mrs. R.
00:45:10About that other night, there was a misunderstanding.
00:45:13And that was on me completely.
00:45:15I'm hoping that you will accept my apology.
00:45:19You're apologizing to me?
00:45:21Exactly.
00:45:22Well, he shouldn't be, should he?
00:45:27I offer my sincerest apology.
00:45:32Fine.
00:45:34Apology accepted.
00:45:37Mr. Sledge, what the hell are you doing?
00:45:39This is some random businesswoman and he...
00:45:42He is a nobody, okay?
00:45:44He's nothing but a damn freeloader.
00:45:46You should be putting them in their place, not just...
00:45:48You know I'm putting them...
00:45:49Freeloader?
00:45:53Are you okay?
00:45:56Sir, my father.
00:45:58You and two go way back.
00:45:59You can't...
00:46:00God, what has got you so spooked?
00:46:02I know these people.
00:46:03They're nobody.
00:46:04They don't even have connections.
00:46:05No connections?
00:46:06Ah!
00:46:07Oh, my God.
00:46:08You open your mouth again.
00:46:09I'll have you dragged out of here.
00:46:10Okay.
00:46:10Okay.
00:46:10Now, your turn.
00:46:16Apologize, Mr. Smith.
00:46:17Now.
00:46:18Sir, what are you doing?
00:46:19Are you deaf?
00:46:20Get on your knees and apologize.
00:46:24I'm sorry.
00:46:27That's enough.
00:46:28Dad, you're here!
00:46:44That gun!
00:46:45That's enough, Richard.
00:46:47Mr. Sledge has locked his mind.
00:46:49He's reading up Brandon and making him apologize to these people.
00:46:52I can see that.
00:46:53Release my son now, Richard.
00:46:55Anthony, perfect timing.
00:47:06Your son needs a lesson in respect.
00:47:08He's gone too far this time.
00:47:09Oh.
00:47:10My son is my business, not yours.
00:47:13You would do well remembering your place.
00:47:16You understand me?
00:47:18If I hadn't stepped in, he might not have survived.
00:47:21Survived?
00:47:23Survived.
00:47:23You nearly were trying to kill him.
00:47:28Your son picked a fight with the wrong man.
00:47:31And if I hadn't stepped in, you'd both be dead by now.
00:47:34The wrong man?
00:47:36Who's that exactly?
00:47:45But this guy, him.
00:47:49Richard is scared.
00:47:50Who the hell is this guy?
00:47:53Well, sir, can I ask you something?
00:47:58What exactly did my son do?
00:48:00He threatened to kill someone over basically nothing.
00:48:04You better get them under control before it's too late.
00:48:06I know these people.
00:48:08They're nobodies.
00:48:09They're just ordinaries.
00:48:11Exactly.
00:48:12You heard them, Richard?
00:48:14You humiliated my son for some nobody.
00:48:18Believe what you want.
00:48:20But I warned you.
00:48:21You better have a damn good excuse for this.
00:48:23Gentlemen, this whole situation was started because of Brandon's behavior.
00:48:27As a Desert Crown executive, I'm sure that you value conflict resolution.
00:48:32I'm sure that we can find some way to amend it.
00:48:34The Ocean Heart.
00:48:36Wait.
00:48:37How...
00:48:38How is that possible?
00:48:41Excuse me?
00:48:42Ocean Heart?
00:48:43Yes.
00:48:44What, this?
00:48:44Yes, that.
00:48:46The Ocean Heart.
00:48:47Desert Crown spent $250 million acquiring it.
00:48:52And it was supposed to be handed off to Don Moretti himself.
00:48:56Mr. Reed, I'm sure there's been some sort of mistake.
00:48:58No, there's no mistake, miss.
00:49:00I was there when the auction happened.
00:49:02I saw it with my own eyes.
00:49:04How did this piece come to be in your possession?
00:49:07Who gave it to you?
00:49:09Michael gave it to me.
00:49:11Michael gave it to you.
00:49:12Ha, ha, ha, bullshit!
00:49:15How could a tribute that's meant to be handed over to Don Moretti end up in possession of someone like you?
00:49:21Because someone I knew gave it to me.
00:49:24It's no big deal.
00:49:25Oh, it's no big deal.
00:49:26It's no big deal.
00:49:26Did you hear it?
00:49:27That necklace is worth over $250 billion, lots of money, and you're calling it no big deal?
00:49:33Son, so you're telling me that someone just gave you this necklace?
00:49:37Please don't go and tell me that Sophia Marlowe handed it to you.
00:49:40The president of Desert Crown Holdings.
00:49:43Actually, that's true.
00:49:47Sophia did indeed give it to me.
00:49:49This guy is at the bottom of the food chain.
00:49:55He's a temp worker.
00:49:56How could a nobody like him meet any president?
00:49:59Son, it's...
00:50:00Connor.
00:50:01He stole it.
00:50:02I know this family.
00:50:03I've known them for five years.
00:50:04They are nobody.
00:50:04There is no way that thing is legitimate.
00:50:07This is a joke.
00:50:08Interesting theory, though, I must say.
00:50:10I mean, it would take big balls to steal from the Desert Crown estate.
00:50:17You know, I've been told, in word of mouth, that poor people sometimes are honest.
00:50:23I'd be crazy if they stole something that valuable.
00:50:25I mean...
00:50:26That's enough.
00:50:28My father isn't a thief.
00:50:30Oh, my God.
00:50:31I'm so glad I broke up with you.
00:50:32Jesus, I would be stuck in this train wreck.
00:50:35Stealing from Desert Crown?
00:50:37You two?
00:50:38Finished.
00:50:39I trust Michael completely.
00:50:41I'm sure there's some sort of explanation for this.
00:50:43Michael, do you care to clarify?
00:50:46Clarify?
00:50:46There's nothing to clarify.
00:50:48It was a gift.
00:50:50Oh, okay.
00:50:51Oh, it was a gift.
00:50:52It was a gift.
00:50:52It was a gift.
00:50:53What are you going to say next?
00:50:54You're a dumb already himself.
00:50:55Oh, I'm a dumb already himself.
00:50:57Stranger things have happened.
00:51:04Unbelievable!
00:51:04First, he steals the ocean hard.
00:51:07Then, he has the nerve to claim he's Don Moretti.
00:51:10Have you lost your mind, old man?
00:51:13Impersonating the Don in front of Anthony?
00:51:15Mind you, a senior executive at Desert Crown?
00:51:18What, are you signing a desk?
00:51:20Sure, fuck you.
00:51:24The Dons have been in the shadows for years.
00:51:26We don't just give low-life losers the right to use his name.
00:51:31And, you know I was willing to overlook how disrespectful you were earlier.
00:51:38Michael, you goddamn better have an explanation for this.
00:51:43Because if you don't, this is going to end bad for you.
00:51:48Adelaide, stop talking.
00:51:50Let's just handle this right now.
00:51:51Guards!
00:52:10President Hart.
00:52:11President Hart.
00:52:26Perfect timing.
00:52:27Stand your ground.
00:52:29Evelyn, what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:52:31You're protecting the thief?
00:52:33I'm protecting an innocent man from a witch hunt.
00:52:36He's in the possession of stolen...
00:52:38Stolen!
00:52:38Evelyn, you're making accusations without a shred of proof.
00:52:41The proof you're wearing around your neck.
00:52:44So that's how it is.
00:52:46You want to go to war with Desert Crown holdings.
00:52:52You're really going to war with Desert Crown?
00:52:55Tell me, Evelyn, are you stupid or just completely brainless?
00:52:58Oh, Brandon, let's be fair.
00:53:00I mean, if she wasn't smart, she wouldn't be able to build more adventures.
00:53:04My guess?
00:53:06She's desert for a man.
00:53:10He's ready to go up against Desert Crown for me?
00:53:17For husband and wife.
00:53:19We rise together.
00:53:20We fall together.
00:53:22Besides, I know you didn't do the thing they're accusing you of.
00:53:25Can we just talk about this for a second?
00:53:32Richard, stay out of this.
00:53:35We still have a score to settle.
00:53:36You're accusing Mr. Smith of stealing the ocean, Art.
00:53:39Where's your proof?
00:53:40My proof?
00:53:41It's obvious.
00:53:43Oh, you think I'm framing him.
00:53:47I'm saying there's one person that knows the truth.
00:53:50Why don't we call her?
00:53:51I mean, because it's my love.
00:53:52Exactly.
00:53:53Better service.
00:53:57If Sophia shows up and I've recovered the ocean heart, she'll owe me one.
00:54:02Maybe even take him to meet the Don himself.
00:54:08What could Anthony Reed possibly want from me?
00:54:13President Marlowe, Mr. Reed is confronting the Don.
00:54:15He's threatening to kill him.
00:54:16What?
00:54:17Let's go.
00:54:18Now.
00:54:19I can't wait for President Marlowe walks through those doors and none of you, none of you are
00:54:26walking out of here, especially Evelyn.
00:54:28Her little small-time, small-time company, Meridian Ventures, challenging desert crown holdings.
00:54:36You're going to regret this for the rest of your goddamn life.
00:54:38I won't regret a thing.
00:54:41Anthony, you're the one that's going to live with regrets.
00:54:43You better start thinking about what she's going to say when Sophia gets here.
00:54:47Do you ever shut up?
00:54:49You just don't quit, do you?
00:54:51Dad, stop wasting time!
00:54:53Just let me break this old man's knees and have him crawl out like the dog he is.
00:54:57Ruff, ruff, ruff!
00:54:58I'll show you what happens when you go up against desert crown holdings, LLC!
00:55:03Patience, son.
00:55:05Audience, with the president is opportunity.
00:55:07In your faith, Michael, your stupidity.
00:55:11You're not just destroying yourself.
00:55:14You're destroying your little mistress there, too.
00:55:17And your entire company.
00:55:18You're taking everyone down with you to the grave.
00:55:21Anthony!
00:55:21Anthony!
00:55:21Anthony!
00:55:22Anthony!
00:55:23Anthony!
00:55:23Anthony!
00:55:24Anthony!
00:55:25Anthony!
00:55:26Anthony!
00:55:27Anthony!
00:55:28Anthony!
00:55:28You're the one that's going to be ruined.
00:55:32I'm so glad you're here.
00:55:33President Marlowe, please forgive my boldness of bringing you here, but I have something extremely
00:55:37important to report to you.
00:55:38Do tell.
00:55:39This man, Michael Smith, stole the Ocean Heart.
00:55:43I was going to arrest myself and bring him straight to you and the Don for judgment.
00:55:47You're accusing him of theft?
00:55:50Absolutely certainly.
00:55:51He's a thief.
00:55:52Your accusation means nothing.
00:55:55The president's standing right here.
00:55:56Your lies will not save you this time.
00:55:57Besides, we have witnesses.
00:56:00No?
00:56:02Who?
00:56:03Me?
00:56:03Hi.
00:56:04Me too.
00:56:05President Marlowe, I can testify.
00:56:06Michael stole the Ocean Heart.
00:56:08He's very shady.
00:56:11We can back that up.
00:56:13It's true.
00:56:14This man has zero respect for desert mountains.
00:56:17You need to make an example out of him.
00:56:19You are all delusional.
00:56:20My father wouldn't steal anything.
00:56:22Easy, son.
00:56:23The truth doesn't change just because they wanted to.
00:56:26President Marlowe, I trust Michael completely.
00:56:28I hope that you will handle this properly and not be manipulated by these low lies.
00:56:34I know the exact truth.
00:56:37What would you say if I told you I gave it to him?
00:56:42What?
00:56:43What?
00:56:43What?
00:56:45What?
00:56:46Wait, how is that possible?
00:56:48Everyone out.
00:56:50Now.
00:56:54Wait a second.
00:56:54What is going on?
00:56:55President Marlowe?
00:57:04Killing it fine, aren't you?
00:57:06You know.
00:57:08Is he with the president taking his time?
00:57:10What's going on?
00:57:12The president of Desert Crown Holdings gave him the ocean crown.
00:57:17Personally.
00:57:18Oh, my God.
00:57:19What if he's the Don?
00:57:20Oh, my God.
00:57:20He's the Don.
00:57:21He's the Don.
00:57:22He's been the Don all this time.
00:57:24We're dead.
00:57:25What are we going to do now?
00:57:26Brandon, you have to fix this.
00:57:28I can't fix it.
00:57:29We're all going down.
00:57:30Shut up.
00:57:32Michael, who are you really?
00:57:34Dad, are you the Don of Desert Crown?
00:57:38The Don?
00:57:39Me?
00:57:39Come on.
00:57:41I barely manage my cleaning supplies.
00:57:43Then explain why the president gave him the ocean heart.
00:57:46She answers to one person only.
00:57:49The Don.
00:57:52Why don't we let President Marlowe explain?
00:57:55Tell them.
00:57:56The Don still wants to stay hidden.
00:57:58But how am I supposed to explain this?
00:58:02Well, Mr. Smith here provided an exceptional service as a hotel staff member.
00:58:10I was so impressed that I gifted him the ocean heart.
00:58:15That's it.
00:58:16I heard Desert Crown acquire that necklace at an enormous cost, specifically as a gift for
00:58:21the Don himself.
00:58:23The Don of the Desert Crown possesses wealth beyond imagination.
00:58:27Trillions.
00:58:27Something like the ocean heart?
00:58:30It's a trinket to him.
00:58:31Wouldn't you agree, President Marlowe?
00:58:34Absolutely.
00:58:35The Don wouldn't think anything else.
00:58:38Guys, he's not the Don.
00:58:39He's not the Don.
00:58:40He's not the Don.
00:58:40No.
00:58:41The ocean heart as a gift for good customer service?
00:58:44Yeah, he's just insanely lucky.
00:58:46The Don operates with the president in secrecy.
00:58:49Come on.
00:58:50What's the likelihood of us stumbling across the Don?
00:58:53Right?
00:58:54It's like stumbling across Jesus.
00:58:56Jesus, I've been given reports that you've been embezzling company funds for your own personal
00:59:01game.
00:59:03The evidence.
00:59:05Compelling.
00:59:07Take him into custody.
00:59:09Take him into custody.
00:59:11That's not.
00:59:12It's not.
00:59:13This is bullshit.
00:59:15Daddy!
00:59:16No, you don't leave me!
00:59:18Bitches!
00:59:20Oh, honey.
00:59:22Listen, I'm so sorry.
00:59:23Take the rest of this trash out.
00:59:24Okay.
00:59:25I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
00:59:26President Marlowe.
00:59:29Is there something else?
00:59:30Yes, I have a small matter I would like to discuss, if it's not too much trouble.
00:59:34Speak freely, Miss Hart.
00:59:35I'll answer what I can.
00:59:36I've heard that Desert Crown hosts a very important investment conference every ten years.
00:59:42Is that true?
00:59:43Yes, it's true.
00:59:44The next one is in three months.
00:59:46Desert Crown uses these conferences to identify the most promising company in the country.
00:59:50And then parting with them for full exclusivity.
00:59:54Maximum resources.
00:59:55How do you know all of them?
00:59:58Oh, from my working in casinos and hotels?
01:00:02Could be wrong, though.
01:00:03No, actually, Mr. Smith's information is accurate.
01:00:08Are you thinking about participating?
01:00:10Yes.
01:00:11Um, Meridian Ventures has been on a steady incline, but lately we have plateaued.
01:00:16We're confined to the southwest.
01:00:18I think with Desert Crown's backing, we could expand nationwide, perhaps even become a top-tier
01:00:23corporation.
01:00:24Ambitious, Miss Hart.
01:00:25I respect that.
01:00:28However, ultimately, it will be up to the dawn.
01:00:30I'm probably dreaming the competition will be insane.
01:00:35There will be dozens of corporations, way more established than Meridian.
01:00:38My champs are slim at that.
01:00:40Don't sell yourself short.
01:00:41You have an advantage that the others don't possess.
01:00:45What advantage?
01:00:50Evelyn, I'm sure that you succeed.
01:00:54It's getting late, though.
01:00:55We should let her go.
01:00:57Oh, of course.
01:00:58President Marlowe, thank you for your time.
01:01:00I'll see you at the investment conference.
01:01:05Okay.
01:01:05I, uh, I almost forgot.
01:01:09Um, I found our new home this afternoon.
01:01:12What?
01:01:13Moving it together already.
01:01:14I mean, we are married.
01:01:16Can't back out now.
01:01:18Aaron, would you like to come, too?
01:01:19Yeah, no thanks.
01:01:20I'd, uh, rather not be your third wheel on your newlywed tour.
01:01:24Okay.
01:01:25Should we go and get out of here?
01:01:31Hmm.
01:01:34What do you think of the neighborhood?
01:01:36It's quite nice.
01:01:38These homes must be quite expensive, though.
01:01:41Comfort is not cheap.
01:01:43But I'm paying for it, so why worry?
01:01:46No.
01:01:46Makes me feel like dead weight.
01:01:48Nonsense.
01:01:50All you have to do is just sit back, relax, and enjoy the fortune while it lasts.
01:01:54Oh, shoot.
01:01:54I think I forgot my phone in the car.
01:01:56I'm gonna go grab that.
01:01:57Um, our house is just up the path here.
01:02:00Number one.
01:02:00Okay.
01:02:02Oh, here.
01:02:02I'll be right back.
01:02:04Okay.
01:02:05But darling, I really think we should go to the club after...
01:02:12What?
01:02:13Michael?
01:02:13Michael?
01:02:14Oh!
01:02:14Linda Carter?
01:02:18Is that you?
01:02:19What are the odds?
01:02:20It's been years.
01:02:22Get your dirty hand away from my wife.
01:02:25Linda?
01:02:25Who is this?
01:02:26He's just an old classmate.
01:02:2720 years ago, he was the most popular guy in school.
01:02:31All the girls had crushes on him.
01:02:34But, um...
01:02:35From what I hear, he hasn't exactly set the world on fire.
01:02:39No real job to speak of.
01:02:42I see you're still bitter about me turning you down, huh?
01:02:46Bitter?
01:02:47Oh, my God.
01:02:49I haven't even thought about that until you mentioned it just right now.
01:02:52Uh, I must have been blind back then.
01:02:55Hmm.
01:02:55Popularity doesn't pay the bills.
01:02:58Reality has a way of humbling people.
01:03:00What are you doing here, exactly?
01:03:03How did security even let you in?
01:03:05This is an exclusive community.
01:03:08Let me in.
01:03:10I live here.
01:03:12I live here.
01:03:15Oh, God.
01:03:17You live here.
01:03:18Are you kidding?
01:03:19Do you have any idea the type of people who can actually afford to live here?
01:03:24Cloud Heights is the most exclusive community in Nevada.
01:03:29Each homeowner is either wealthy or well-connected.
01:03:32So, take a good look in the mirror.
01:03:35Do you really think that you belong?
01:03:37What would I like?
01:03:39Well, it has taken us decades of hard work and the right connections to even get the smallest lot in this place.
01:03:47But, you know, if you do live here, which house is yours?
01:03:52The big one at the top of the hill.
01:03:54Number one.
01:04:02If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.
01:04:08That estate is worth over a billion dollars.
01:04:11Money alone can't even buy it.
01:04:13You have to have connections at the highest level.
01:04:17Oh, right, right.
01:04:18Michael, look.
01:04:18We're old classmates.
01:04:20You know, you don't have to put on an act.
01:04:21But, if you do own that house, why don't you prove it?
01:04:27Oh, I don't need to prove anything to you.
01:04:29Right, because you can't.
01:04:32If you insist.
01:04:33Okay, I thought the path was straight there.
01:04:38Maybe it's somewhere around here.
01:04:42Oh, excuse me.
01:04:45Which way to number one?
01:04:47Right across the field there.
01:04:49There'll be an elevator that will take you straight.
01:04:51You hear that?
01:04:52He doesn't even know where it is.
01:04:54Just, just stop, Michael.
01:04:56You're only going to embarrass yourself.
01:05:01God.
01:05:01This ought to be good.
01:05:03Let's watch him crash and burn.
01:05:05Yeah.
01:05:10I can't.
01:05:11Oh, God.
01:05:13Have you two got anything better to do than just follow me?
01:05:16Oh, Michael, Michael, Michael.
01:05:18You know what?
01:05:19You really committed to the bit, walking all the way up here.
01:05:23But you didn't think we'd actually fall for it, did you?
01:05:26How stupid do you think we are?
01:05:29Unless you can prove that you're the owner.
01:05:32Right.
01:05:32What if I can?
01:05:33If you can prove that you're the owner, I will get down on my knees and I will lick your shoes.
01:05:38You just said it.
01:05:42Okay.
01:05:46Access granted.
01:05:47Welcome home.
01:05:48What?
01:05:48What?
01:05:49What?
01:05:50What?
01:05:54No!
01:05:56What?
01:05:57No!
01:05:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:00This is impossible.
01:06:02There's no way he actually owns this place.
01:06:05Come on.
01:06:06If I weren't the owner, how'd I get in?
01:06:08Promise is a promise.
01:06:10I'm waiting for you to get down on your knees.
01:06:11This doesn't prove anything.
01:06:14Look at his clothes.
01:06:15He's probably the hired help.
01:06:18Oh, yes, exactly.
01:06:19That's the only explanation.
01:06:21Are you being serious?
01:06:23You can't handle losing.
01:06:25What more proof do you need?
01:06:27You know what, Michael?
01:06:28Just forget it.
01:06:29If you feel better playing pretend, go right ahead.
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:33Come on, honey.
01:06:34I think we've wasted enough time with this clown.
01:06:37Right.
01:06:41Who were they?
01:06:45Oh, just an old acquaintance.
01:06:48Very pleasant people.
01:06:50They seemed upset.
01:06:51You know, some people just can't help being wrong.
01:06:55Huh.
01:06:57Well, they're locked.
01:06:58Shall we?
01:07:00Fuck you.
01:07:07Sis.
01:07:08Glad you could make it.
01:07:09Daniel, what the fuck are you doing in my house?
01:07:11Who let you in?
01:07:12Well, you're not at the office.
01:07:13You're not answering your phone.
01:07:14Where else am I supposed to be?
01:07:15Okay.
01:07:16Um, Michael.
01:07:18This is Daniel, my brother.
01:07:20Daniel, this is Michael, my husband.
01:07:23You have a problem.
01:07:24Getting married without telling anybody?
01:07:26That's fucked up.
01:07:27You know, Dad almost had another heart attack when he found out.
01:07:30Dad's been nagging me to get married for years.
01:07:31Now that I have, he's complaining.
01:07:35That's who you choose?
01:07:37Yes.
01:07:38Are you shitting me?
01:07:39He's way older than you.
01:07:40He's broke as shit.
01:07:41He doesn't have a real job.
01:07:42And he's, I mean, he's quite striking physically.
01:07:44But it's not like he's Jake Gyllenhaal or Heath Ledger or something.
01:07:46Why is this guy worthy of you?
01:07:48Well, that's not very polite now, is it?
01:07:50We're brother-in-laws.
01:07:52Brother-in-laws.
01:07:53Yeah, guess again, asshole.
01:07:54F, you can have any guy you want.
01:07:56Tech moguls.
01:07:57Heirs to billion dollar fortunes.
01:07:59Literally everyone we set you up with who's better than him.
01:08:01Daniel, my life is none of your business.
01:08:02Except you're my sister, and it kind of is.
01:08:05I'm not just going to let you get taken advantage of like this.
01:08:07All right, dude.
01:08:08What's the scam?
01:08:09Come on, tell me.
01:08:10What kind of con are you running?
01:08:13Daniel, that's enough.
01:08:14Enough?
01:08:15You marrying this guy is going to make us a joke in every boardroom in Vegas.
01:08:18I don't give a shit what they think.
01:08:20All right.
01:08:22What's your number?
01:08:23What is it?
01:08:23Five million?
01:08:24Ten million?
01:08:25Come on, just tell me.
01:08:26I can give it to you, and then you can leave.
01:08:28Money?
01:08:28That's not what I care about.
01:08:30Fuck it.
01:08:30We'll do this the hard way.
01:08:36Boys.
01:08:38What are you doing?
01:08:39I'm going to teach this old man a lesson he won't forget.
01:08:44If we're going to do this, let's take it outside.
01:08:46No, Michael, don't.
01:08:49Michael, stop.
01:08:50Daniel, stop.
01:08:52Guys, call it off.
01:08:53Daniel, stop.
01:08:56You choosing this guy over your own family?
01:08:58Let go of me.
01:08:59If anything happens to him, you're fucking dead to me.
01:09:01You're throwing everything away for him.
01:09:03What happened to you?
01:09:04Why did you become this desperate?
01:09:05He saved my life.
01:09:06Dumbass.
01:09:07Write him a check.
01:09:08You don't have to marry every idiot that does you a favor.
01:09:11You wouldn't even understand.
01:09:13He'll stop and call them off before...
01:09:15Before what?
01:09:15It's already happened.
01:09:16They're ex-special forces.
01:09:17Are they?
01:09:19Are they?
01:09:20Are you hurt?
01:09:31I'm fine.
01:09:32I think your brother here got some bad intel.
01:09:35These guys can shake up a lemonade stand.
01:09:38They're not special forces.
01:09:39That's impossible.
01:09:47Are you willing to test that theory?
01:09:49You're Evelyn's brother.
01:09:50But you need to leave.
01:09:52Now.
01:09:52This isn't over.
01:09:56Not by a long shot.
01:10:01I'm sorry about him.
01:10:04Sometimes I don't know how I'm related to him.
01:10:06I can't believe you...
01:10:09That was so dangerous.
01:10:11Where'd you learn to fight like that?
01:10:13Oh, here and there.
01:10:14It's nothing to worry about.
01:10:16I'm fine.
01:10:18God, and you ruined your clothes.
01:10:21Boys, boys, boys.
01:10:24Come on.
01:10:25Get you cleaned up, too.
01:10:25Okay.
01:10:25I'm humiliated by a fucking janitor.
01:10:38All right.
01:10:39Didn't want to have to do this.
01:10:41Here we go.
01:10:43Victor.
01:10:45It's Daniel Hart.
01:10:47Listen, remember that favor you owe me?
01:10:49Yeah.
01:10:50Well, my sister just married this fucking middle-aged maintenance worker.
01:10:55Uh, she's still thirsty for Desert Crown's back.
01:10:58So I was wondering if...
01:11:00Tonight?
01:11:01That fast?
01:11:03Yeah.
01:11:04Sure.
01:11:06Yeah.
01:11:07I'll make sure she's there.
01:11:20Do you think Daniel's mystery contact actually has pull at Desert Crown?
01:11:23Or is it just more of the usual hot air?
01:11:26It's getting a bit late, Eve.
01:11:28Why don't we leave this until tomorrow?
01:11:30Fresh eyes.
01:11:32Clear heads.
01:11:33You don't get it.
01:11:35I don't take every chance that I can.
01:11:37I'll never forgive myself.
01:11:38This is how I understand it.
01:11:41The final call at this investment conference goes to the dawn.
01:11:46Period.
01:11:46So even if this mystery contact has connections, can he really overwrite it?
01:11:52I don't know.
01:11:53Maybe, maybe not.
01:11:55But I still have to try.
01:11:58Wait for me outside, okay?
01:12:00I won't be long.
01:12:00A bar?
01:12:22Who has a business meeting at a bar?
01:12:24You want answers?
01:12:26Right through there.
01:12:28Here to see Vic.
01:12:31Gentlemen.
01:12:36Let me introduce you to Victor Castellano,
01:12:39the son of the Chancellor of Desert Crown.
01:12:44Please, take a seat.
01:12:49Chancellor's son?
01:12:51I mean, I've heard of the Don and President Marlowe,
01:12:56but his position seems new.
01:12:58Well, that shows what you don't know.
01:13:00Sure, the Don's the head honcho.
01:13:01He runs the whole thing,
01:13:02but beneath him are two equally powerful positions,
01:13:04the President and the Chancellor.
01:13:06Your brother's right.
01:13:07Think of Desert Crown as more than just a company,
01:13:10an empire.
01:13:12President Marlowe deals with the business side of things,
01:13:14the legitimate operations.
01:13:16But my father, he handles everything else.
01:13:19The machine that keeps the wheels turning.
01:13:22I see.
01:13:23And the investment conference?
01:13:24Oh, we can help you.
01:13:26But I can't guarantee that you'll win.
01:13:28That would be dishonest.
01:13:29But I will do everything in my power
01:13:31to improve the Meridian Venture's chances.
01:13:34I'll stack the deck in your favor,
01:13:37if you will.
01:13:38That would be...
01:13:39That would be incredible.
01:13:42Name your price.
01:13:44No matter the outcome,
01:13:45I'll make sure you're compensated very fairly.
01:13:47Oh, I don't need compensation.
01:13:50I mean, look around you.
01:13:51I have everything that money can buy, right?
01:13:54Consider it a gesture of friendship.
01:13:58Two.
01:14:00Business partners
01:14:02and mutual success.
01:14:07Hmm?
01:14:08Well, I'm celebrating.
01:14:09Huh?
01:14:14Huh?
01:14:15You know, I've heard about
01:14:26Meridian Venture's president.
01:14:28They say you're the most beautiful woman in Las Vegas.
01:14:30And the rumors,
01:14:32ooh,
01:14:33they do not cut it.
01:14:36It's getting late.
01:14:38I wish I'd get going.
01:14:39I have to get...
01:14:40Who are my...
01:14:41husband?
01:14:42Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:14:43Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:14:47Okay?
01:14:53A drink.
01:14:55Are you okay?
01:14:57What's going on?
01:15:00Congratulations, boss.
01:15:05The most untouchable woman in Vegas.
01:15:08Not so untouchable anymore.
01:15:10Thought I had you fired.
01:15:13Oh, you did more than that.
01:15:16Thanks to Michael and that bitch, Sophia,
01:15:18I lost everything.
01:15:20My position,
01:15:21my reputation,
01:15:22and now I'm even facing time
01:15:24in federal prison.
01:15:25Victor, what the fuck is going on?
01:15:27What is this?
01:15:28You really are as stupid as you look,
01:15:30aren't you?
01:15:31You think Victor was ever really interested
01:15:34in some trust fund baby
01:15:35with a gambling problem?
01:15:36He was never interested in you,
01:15:38you idiot.
01:15:39I just wanted your sister.
01:15:40What's taking her so long?
01:15:49Why are you doing this?
01:15:51Do you really have to ask?
01:15:52I mean,
01:15:53I mean, look at you.
01:15:53You're beautiful.
01:15:54You're powerful.
01:15:56You're...
01:15:56untouchable.
01:15:58But you just made yourself
01:16:00two errors.
01:16:01You touch my sister,
01:16:02I'll fucking kill you.
01:16:06Oh, Daniel,
01:16:07I'm going to do more
01:16:08than just touch her.
01:16:09I'm going to make you watch
01:16:11every single second.
01:16:14And this is going to haunt you
01:16:16for the rest of your pathetic
01:16:18little life.
01:16:19Hey, man,
01:16:20you don't have to do this.
01:16:21You can just let her go.
01:16:22Oh, my God,
01:16:23someone shut this loser up, please.
01:16:25Your husband?
01:16:26The janitor?
01:16:27I mean,
01:16:27he hasn't even touched you yet,
01:16:28has he?
01:16:29Which means you are mine
01:16:31to declare.
01:16:32A gift, really.
01:16:34Unopened.
01:16:35Get your dirty hands off her.
01:16:42Get your dirty hands off her.
01:16:44Hey, God.
01:16:48This place is surrounded
01:16:49with security.
01:16:50How did you get in?
01:16:51Oh, those three rented thugs?
01:16:52They weren't much of an obstacle.
01:16:54As a member of Desert Crown Holdings,
01:16:56you should know better
01:16:57than to act like this.
01:16:59Aren't you afraid
01:16:59what happens
01:17:00when the organization
01:17:01finds out?
01:17:03Found out.
01:17:04About what?
01:17:04This is just a business meeting.
01:17:06Oh, man,
01:17:07you really don't know
01:17:08how this works, do you?
01:17:09Victor is the Chancellor's son.
01:17:12No one at Desert Crown
01:17:13would dare touch him.
01:17:14Nobody.
01:17:15Not even President Marlow
01:17:16dares to cross me.
01:17:17I'm untouchable.
01:17:19What about the Don?
01:17:20The Don?
01:17:22Please, he operates
01:17:22so far above this,
01:17:24he doesn't care
01:17:25about any of this, okay?
01:17:27So I suggest
01:17:27you turn around,
01:17:29walk your ass out of here,
01:17:30and pretend like
01:17:31you were never here.
01:17:32Go.
01:17:32No, I am untouchable.
01:17:55I made that specifically clear.
01:17:57I am untouchable.
01:17:59Ah!
01:18:00Ah.
01:18:01Ah, you just signed
01:18:02your death with
01:18:03assholes.
01:18:07Ah.
01:18:12Holy shit, Mike,
01:18:14you're a beast.
01:18:20Evelyn,
01:18:20are you doing better?
01:18:22I'm fine.
01:18:22And I think
01:18:24whatever that bastard
01:18:25gave me is finally a break.
01:18:28Oh, I'm so tired.
01:18:30I can't believe
01:18:31I fell for Victor's lies.
01:18:32He won't get away with it.
01:18:34I promise.
01:18:35We can deal with that
01:18:35another time.
01:18:37Right now,
01:18:38she needs some rest.
01:18:39I'm fine.
01:18:39I'm fine.
01:18:39I'm fine.
01:18:52It's twice you save me now.
01:19:01I wouldn't be
01:19:02a very good husband
01:19:03if I didn't save you.
01:19:12You need some rest.
01:19:14I need you.
01:19:15I need you.
01:19:22Well,
01:19:36I feel kind of
01:19:37feel better.
01:19:40I need you.
01:19:43I need you.
01:19:45I need you.
01:19:47I need you.
01:19:48I need you.
01:19:48I need you.
01:19:48I need you.
01:19:49I need you.
01:19:51Look, let me.
01:19:52Good morning, welcome back to the land of living.
01:20:22How are you feeling?
01:20:24Better, clearer, after a night of vigorous sex.
01:20:29Is that what you're going to call it?
01:20:31Well, I guess I could get a few more reps here.
01:20:33Well, as your personal trainer, I insist that you take it easy and eat your breakfast.
01:20:40Stop.
01:20:44You know, it's just a shame that my chance at Desert Crown is ruined.
01:20:47Why'd you say that?
01:20:48Mike won't be realistic. He's the Chancellor's son.
01:20:51He has connections that we can't match.
01:20:54Trust me on this. You should still attend the conference.
01:20:57In fact, I guarantee you, you'll be glad that you did.
01:21:00Claire, please tell me we've everything handled.
01:21:13Please tell me that we're not about to humiliate ourselves.
01:21:16All available capitals have been mobilized, President.
01:21:19Fifty billion dollars. Liquid and bare pipe.
01:21:23It sounds like a fortune, but when you look around this room, half the companies in here could just match that.
01:21:29The blink of an eye.
01:21:30And why are we here? Why are you doing this, dude?
01:21:31Because Michael told me to be here.
01:21:34Says he has a surprise.
01:21:36Oh, okay.
01:21:37Speaking of, where is he?
01:21:38Well, well, well, look who's here.
01:21:43Victor, here to embarrass yourselves.
01:21:47I mean, don't get me wrong.
01:21:48We're in Ventures is respectable in a regional company kind of way.
01:21:54I guess if that's your thing.
01:21:55But everyone in this room is Fortune 500 territory.
01:21:58I mean, you actually won't even survive the competition.
01:22:01The game hasn't even started.
01:22:03Don't count your chips at the table, Anthony.
01:22:04Oh, I'm not counting chips, Evelyn.
01:22:08I am stating the facts.
01:22:09The winner has already been decided.
01:22:12Our family is backing a candidate, and when we back somebody, they don't lose.
01:22:16That's funny.
01:22:18I almost said the same thing.
01:22:20Let's be equally clear.
01:22:23The real winner is Meridian Ventures.
01:22:27The real winner is Meridian Ventures.
01:22:30I'm sorry, what?
01:22:31You think Meridian Ventures is going to win?
01:22:35And that's based off of what?
01:22:37Your dazzling personality?
01:22:39Why do you keep showing up where you don't belong?
01:22:41Shouldn't you be mopping floors somewhere?
01:22:43You know, scrubbing toilets?
01:22:46The balls on the sky.
01:22:49Glorified handyman.
01:22:51What do you think?
01:22:51You're going to declare victory and make it happen?
01:22:55You want an answer?
01:22:56It's simple.
01:22:57Through me.
01:22:58Oh, wow.
01:22:59Well, you hear that, everybody?
01:23:01That is golden.
01:23:02Absolutely priceless.
01:23:03Michael, what are you doing here?
01:23:05How could you possibly guarantee that?
01:23:07Please tell me you have an actual plan, please.
01:23:09Don't worry, both of you.
01:23:11Trust me.
01:23:12Okay.
01:23:13You know what?
01:23:14If you are so certain Meridian Ventures is going to win, let's test it.
01:23:18Capital verification right here, right now.
01:23:22The company that my family is backing has 90 billion in liquid assets.
01:23:27And with a little bit of strategic liquidation, we could get past 100 billion without breaking
01:23:32a sweat.
01:23:33That's immense.
01:23:35That's impossible.
01:23:36We barely scraped up 50 billion.
01:23:38That's everything that we have.
01:23:39We can't compete with that.
01:23:42You hear that?
01:23:43That's reality knocking.
01:23:4550 billion versus 100.
01:23:47That's not just a gap.
01:23:48Sweetheart, it's a god damn thing.
01:23:52What if this changes everything?
01:23:56What?
01:23:59What if this changes everything?
01:24:04What?
01:24:05That's not real.
01:24:07That is a Desert Crown Royal card.
01:24:10Those cards, there's only five in existence.
01:24:14Each one has access to Jesus Christ.
01:24:17Trillions.
01:24:18Fuck.
01:24:19Mike, how did you get that?
01:24:21Don't worry.
01:24:21You'll find out soon enough.
01:24:23Does this answer your capital verification question?
01:24:27How does someone like you have a Desert Crown Royal card, huh?
01:24:30Just who the hell are you?
01:24:31What does it matter?
01:24:32What matters is that Meridian Ventures passed capital verification with room to spare.
01:24:37Okay, well, you know, it could be fake.
01:24:39Anybody could print out a little plastic piece of a black card, all right?
01:24:44Someone bring me a card reader right now.
01:24:46Okay.
01:24:46If this is fake, I'm going to have you arrested for fraud.
01:24:53Then not even God will be able to save you.
01:24:56Current available balance, one trillion dollars.
01:24:59Michael, where did you get that kind of money?
01:25:12I mean, a trillion dollar?
01:25:14Does that change anything?
01:25:16When I had nothing, you married me anyway.
01:25:18And now that I've got money, does it matter?
01:25:19No, it doesn't.
01:25:21No, no, no.
01:25:23Capital verification doesn't mean anything.
01:25:25Okay, the decision on the partnership has to be made by the Don.
01:25:29Only the Don can authorize it.
01:25:31You're absolutely correct.
01:25:34That's why I asked him to be here.
01:25:36What?
01:25:36You can come in now.
01:25:37What?
01:25:45Greetings, Don Moretti.
01:25:49Greetings, Don Moretti.
01:25:54Don.
01:25:56Your husband is the Don of Desert Crown Holdings?
01:25:59Michael, are you really?
01:26:01Dad, you let me stock shelves and worry about rent for seven years.
01:26:05All while you were running a trillion dollar empire?
01:26:07You're doing good, kid.
01:26:09You turned out to be a better man than I hoped for.
01:26:11I officially announced that Meridian Ventures will become Desert Crown Holdings' exclusive strategic partner.
01:26:17No, no.
01:26:18With immediate effect, you'll be given full access to networks, resources, and infrastructure
01:26:25backed with initial investment of one trillion dollars.
01:26:31How's that for a marriage proposal?
01:26:33Last time I checked, we were already married.
01:26:36Legally, sure.
01:26:37But it wasn't a proper proposal.
01:26:39Not a real moment.
01:26:44Evelyn Hort, will you marry me again?
01:26:49For real, this time?
01:26:51Yeah, I will.
01:27:00Aaron, you've been thinking your whole life that you're a nobody.
01:27:18But you are my son.
01:27:20And it's about time you learned how to run this empire.
01:27:22I'm putting him under your guidance.
01:27:25Teach him everything you know.
01:27:29Thanks, Dad.
01:27:31I'll do my best.
01:27:32As for you three, deal with them.
01:27:42Quietly, but thoroughly.
01:27:45And let everyone know that this is what happens when you forget who you work for.
01:27:50I...
01:27:51Hold on a second.
01:27:53No, that...
01:27:54Just let go of me.
01:27:55No, please.
01:27:57You're cool.
01:27:58You're great.
01:27:58Okay.
01:27:59Hi, guys.
01:28:05Get a follow, guys.
01:28:08Here we go.
01:28:09Smile.
01:28:10Alright, everyone get in position.
01:28:12Come on.
01:28:21Shit.
