05:39What the hell?
05:41Listen up everyone
05:43Victoria Wintour is terminated
05:45Effective immediately
05:47You can't just do that
05:49She's in the hospital having her baby
05:51There are laws against this
05:53Vic worked while in labor
05:55She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau
05:57Maternity leave, medical insurance, these preggles are bleeding us dry
06:03Everything okay here?
06:05Everything okay here?
06:09Great timing
06:11Victoria Wintour, you're fired
06:13You're fired
06:15Clear out your desk now
06:25You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:27I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll
06:31Three times
06:35Well
06:37That's ancient history
06:39The board wants fresh blood
06:41And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection
06:49What?
06:50I'm the one who
06:53Mia you
06:56Feel that curve?
06:57That's her signature
06:59That's what makes it Maison Laveau
07:06How could you?
07:07I taught you everything you know
07:11I wish things were different Vic
07:13I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant
07:15What happens to my team?
07:17Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections
07:19Things got so bad she had to get hair implants
07:23Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre
07:25These jobs are their lifelines
07:27These jobs are their lifelines, health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity
07:29You can't just throw them away
07:31Well actually, legally speaking, we can
07:33No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection
07:35But hey, that's corporate America
07:37You can't just throw them away
07:39Well actually, legally speaking we can
07:41No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection
07:43But hey, that's corporate America for you
07:45Or we can shift the math
07:47You sign, they stay, the budget works out
07:51Think of it as taking one for the team
07:53Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts
07:59And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery
08:01They can't lose her family
08:03But what's the difference?
08:04Well actually, legally speaking we can
08:05No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection
08:07But hey, that's corporate America for you
08:09Or we can shift the math
08:11You sign, they stay, the budget works out
08:13Think of it as taking one for the team
08:16Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts
08:19And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:22They can't lose their jobs.
08:28Come on, babe. You say you care about them.
08:31Prove it.
08:49Five grand. That's my severance package after 15 years. That's what I'm worth to them.
09:19Be careful. I got you.
09:34Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:37Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:49So, it's true.
09:56Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Rizan Laveau's Milan collection.
10:06How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:12Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:16What are you getting at exactly?
10:19I'm talking about you and me.
10:23Partners. You're genius. My money.
10:28No corporate BS. No one holding you back.
10:33I've got a baby to think about now.
10:40And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:47Just saying.
10:52Vincent Chevalier, wow!
10:54You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis, strolling into the office.
10:59Got your spy here?
11:04Don't mind me. I'm just giving Victoria your soft landing.
11:09Triple her salary, corner office.
11:12You know, before the vultures at LV or Chanel swoop in.
11:15Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:18Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:23Wow, that's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:29I mean, the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:34The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:36If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:43Shit, shit, shit.
11:45What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:54Actually, those were my designs.
11:59What did you just say?
12:01The spring collection.
12:03The Cartier pieces.
12:04I designed them.
12:07Under your supervision, of course.
12:08But they came from me.
12:10Oops.
12:11Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
12:14I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:19Then explain my signature.
12:21On the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:29So what?
12:30Sketches get past her and all the time.
12:31It doesn't prove squat.
12:32Maybe she was her little, what do they call it?
12:36Best designer?
12:38And the logo?
12:41The EW, woven in.
12:44Victoria's signature mark.
12:46It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:49Well, Mia, explain it.
12:50Make her shut up.
12:51It's funny.
12:52It's funny.
12:53All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing with her.
13:01They all have EW and GW so near, too.
13:05Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
13:08Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:10It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs.
13:16Mia.
13:17Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
13:21Well, Mia, tell them.
13:23Tell them you designed this.
13:25Tell them you saved Milan.
13:26The logo, it's...
13:30It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:34You lying little bitch!
13:36That promotion was for saving the company.
13:40Look at the logo again.
13:45It's not EW or GW.
13:49It's actually two Ms.
13:52MM for McMichael, my last name.
13:58See?
13:59One M flipped.
14:01One upright.
14:02It's not for Grace or Emily.
14:05It's mine.
14:06That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:10Oh my god, she's right.
14:11It does look more like two Ms.
14:15You manipulative bitch.
14:16You really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:21You learned wild Mia.
14:24Maybe two bucks.
14:26You'll regret this.
14:29Come on, Vincent.
14:31We don't have to sink to their level.
14:33Okay.
14:34Okay.
14:35Then let me drive you home, okay?
14:37My Ferrari's outside.
14:39I got this.
14:40You shouldn't be caring anymore.
14:46Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:50Just take care of your honor and poly, Mia.
14:55That's right!
14:56Get the hell out of my company!
14:58Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
15:05Hi, I'm Victoria.
15:08A VIP invitation.
15:11As fashionary.
15:13Front row.
15:15I didn't mean to find it.
15:17Lightning.
15:18Every pregnant woman fired. All of us. Just like that. No severance. No warning. Nothing. But a box and a security escort.
15:42Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:45Their termination paperwork practically paid for your sign and bonus made right in Star.
15:51Now, about Paris fashion movie. Your designs are eagerly awaited.
15:58You should have kept your legs closed.
16:09Oh my god, Mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
16:14Victoria Wintour. The Nuclear Vic. Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
16:21We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison LĆ©veau.
16:25Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:30Wait. Maison LĆ©veau?
16:31Maison LĆ©veau?
16:34Well, well. The Queen without her crown graces us with her presence. Brave of you to show up here.
16:40What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:45Leaving so soon? You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:48Has Mommy Dearest filled you in on her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
16:57Mom, is that true?
17:02Don't worry. She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
17:06Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour. Still pretending she matters.
17:15My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:19If Maison LĆ©veau was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crash and burn!
17:26Well, look at that. It seems entitlement runs in the family.
17:30Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:34That's got a sting, huh?
17:36Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
17:41Hey, good news. There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hard-working children.
17:46If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:50That's enough.
17:51That's enough.
17:56You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
17:59You never belonged in this world.
18:01Look at her.
18:03A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
18:07That dress...
18:09It's a cheap knockoff.
18:13Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
18:17It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:22What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:25Remove that dress.
18:28We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:31Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
18:35Now let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:38Take your hands off her now!
18:43Vincent...
18:49You're dismissed.
18:50You're dismissed.
19:00You alright?
19:04You alright?
19:06Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier!
19:08The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
19:12What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:16That knockoff?
19:18That you're so eager to trash her for?
19:21It's Chauvin.
19:23Haute Couture.
19:25Winter Collection.
19:27Not even released yet.
19:29Price tag?
19:30300,000.
19:32Wow!
19:34You gave her that.
19:36That's right.
19:38You did.
19:40I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:43Oh my god, everyone mystery solved!
19:46Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
19:49Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
19:52He's your walking trust fund.
19:55Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
19:58It's just so predictably desperate.
20:04You really don't understand real talent, do you?
20:08For those of you who don't know me,
20:11I'm Vincent Chevalier.
20:13CEO of Jeven.
20:16Yes.
20:18I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:22I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:26Your brilliance.
20:28Your principles.
20:30Your passion.
20:33Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:37Mom, did you know about this?
20:39Now, I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:42But in the meantime, what I will do
20:46is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:50She won't let you down, boss.
20:55You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
20:58She's nothing but a has-been.
21:00The show is about to start.
21:03Your seats are waiting.
21:04Holy shit.
21:06The industry golden boy and the creative powerhouse together?
21:10Talk about a power couple.
21:12They could run the entire industry.
21:14This isn't over, bitch.
21:16Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
21:17So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
21:18Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:19Some people, too.
21:20Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:21Some people, too.
21:22Some people, too.
21:24Ladies and gentlemen,
21:25so you seriously been in love with my mom since high school
21:36some talents you recognize immediately some people too
21:46ladies and gentlemen before we kick off tonight's show i have an important
21:55announcement this woman is nothing but a fraud and thief she's been stealing
22:00designs for my creative director for years it's true she took my work and
22:07passed it off as her own i've slaved away on those designs day and night and
22:15Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own
22:20that's just the tip of the iceberg isn't it Victoria your entire career is
22:27based on lies and manipulation that's enough Holly everyone thinks you're this
22:34creative genius but i know what you really are
22:36your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent did you know she slept
22:42with half the executives in the industry that's her real design strategy stop it
22:48Holly you're embarrassing yourself and those kids she's so proud of who
22:52knows who their real fathers are
22:56how dare you
23:02it's a disaster in there there's something wrong with the collection it's the
23:05fabric not now
23:10the primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights the dresses are
23:18literally falling apart we've only got 50 minutes left until showtime
23:22is this some kind of sick joke mesemovale are you cancelling the show because of your incompetence
23:27this is completely unprofessional i have 10 million invested in this collection this is breach of contract
23:35it's actually fixable
23:41oh you can't seriously be thinking about helping me backstabbing vultures
23:47breaking news from paris fashion week mason's mafoe appears to be imploding underneath new leadership
23:53sources say the entire collection need to cancel minutes before showtime
23:57the question on everyone's mind is this the end for the once prestigious fashion groups
24:06this show doesn't happen you're personally liable for the breach penalties
24:11we're talking billions
24:35what's this now how the fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials
24:45i can't magically make new dresses in an hour you have exactly 30 minutes to make this work
24:52if you don't those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket that's billions of dollars then you
24:59better figure something out because if you don't not only are you fired i'll make sure you never work in fashion again

46:52The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:57You've got Grace to sleep.
47:01Yeah.
47:04And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
47:09Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
47:18Remember, smile, we're about to make history.
47:24Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:26We don't follow trends, we create them.
47:29Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Met Gala moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:43I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:47What is that bitch doing here?
47:59Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
48:03My company is thriving because of your generosity.
48:08I didn't expect to see you here.
48:11We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
48:17I multitask.
48:19Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:23You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
48:28The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:30And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:36Pregnant women talk, you know.
48:38Three X and threes in a rival's video.
48:41What's next?
48:41The fake sale?
48:43Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:45You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:48And what real loyalty looks like.
48:50Sean, glad you could make it.
49:05We have something very special to show you.
49:10Vic.
49:14I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl you'd never know.
49:18Congratulations.
49:19Thank you, Sean.
49:20It's good to see you.
49:23Let's begin the pitches.
49:26You ready to lose?
49:27You're out of your league.
49:29You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:39First up, Mia McMichael, Maison Laveau.
49:41Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
50:02Beautiful work.
50:12Both themes.
50:14We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:20After careful consideration, we're awarding the project to...
50:29Maison Laveau.
50:32Yes!
50:33Oh my God!
50:35Of course.
50:37This is what you planned all along, wasn't it?
50:40What the hell did you people put me in?
50:52Are you trying to kill me?
50:54Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:57Who designed this tuxedo?
50:59Did you even read the brief?
51:03I mean, you must have read the brief.
51:06It's not complicated.
51:07It says no synthetic blends.
51:10I mean...
51:11It must be some kind of mistake.
51:13Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
51:15A mistake?
51:16I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:19Victoria.
51:20Please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your last design.
51:32I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:36I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline.
51:39And that's why Victoria's the best.
51:41She actually pays attention.
51:43After reviewing all of the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:47The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:54Mr. Gosling, it was just a slip up.
51:56Mia's design was the front runner all along.
51:59That's why they picked her first.
52:05Maybe everyone should see this.
52:12Wait, Mia.
52:13Did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:20That's a new low.
52:21Even for you.
52:22Maison Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
52:29So you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for design theft.
52:37Maison Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:39We're suspending all collaborations.
52:52Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:55You're blacklisted.
52:56Victoria, please.
52:57Victoria, please.
52:58Victoria, please.
52:59I'll do anything.
53:00Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
53:03You made your choices, Holly.
53:04Now you live with them.
53:05Uh, you're fine.
53:07You're fine.
53:08Yeah, I'm fine.
53:09I'm fine.
53:10Hardly, you've been there.
53:11I'm fine.
53:12I'm fine.
53:13You're fine.
53:14I didn't care.
53:15You're fine.
53:16I'm fine.
53:17All right, Laveau's good.
53:18You're fine.
53:19All right.
53:20I'm fine.
53:21You're fine.
53:22So you're fine.
53:23But you're fine.
53:24Hey, don't worry.
53:25I'm fine.
53:26I don't know if you want to get out of a lot of time.
53:27In fact, I'm fine.
53:28What?
53:29I don't know if I'm fine with you.
53:30And I'm fine.
53:31Sean Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Joven.
53:40Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:46To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
53:56To the maternity leave that actually means something.
54:03Mom, you might want to see this.
54:15Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:19Happy birthday to you!
54:25Guys, look!
54:29Maison LĆ©veau on the brink? Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:35Ouch! I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:39It's strange, isn't it?
54:44I gave them everything. Late nights, weekends, all the best years and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:54Now it's all crashing down. I thought I'd feel vindicated.
54:58Honestly, it's a weird mix.
55:01Relief? Sure, but also a little bit of grief.
55:05Look, who said that our best years are behind us? Look at this!
55:12Joven pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
55:17Victoria, this is you!
55:19Victoria, this is you! You did this!
55:21Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between their families and their careers.
55:27Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
55:31Careful, Vincent. You almost forgot the best part.
55:35Victoria Winter, will you marry me?
55:53Will you marry me?
55:58Yes! A thousand times yes!
56:01Woo!
56:02Woo!
56:03Woo!
56:12Woo!
56:17Happy birthday ever!
56:24Who came? I thought you'd want to see me like this.
56:43I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:47When word got out, you left. Clients failed.
56:51The board freaked. Numbers tanked.
56:54I couldn't stop it.
56:57You steered Maison Laveau into this storm, Holly.
57:04I know. I know.
57:07My father, the stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
57:15I destroyed everything.
57:17My thoughts, slashing costs, would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
57:22I didn't mean for it to end like this.
57:27Maison Laveau isn't dead. I bought it. Last week.
57:33The brand, the archives, even the debt.
57:37It's part of Gevin now.
57:39If you bought it, why would you do that?
57:41To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:49You win, Victoria.
57:52I hope you do better than I did.
57:55I'll do it differently.
57:58Goodbye, Holly.
57:59Miss Wintour, I just, I wanted to thank you.
58:19Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
58:25I can keep working and have my baby.
58:30You changed everything.
58:34Congratulations.
58:35Wishing you and your little one every happens.
58:38Ready?
58:48Ready?
58:52Always.
58:52And now, Gervain's new collection
