Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I need you help. I need you to wire me $100,000. My mom's in the ICU. I wouldn't be asking if it were in life or death, please.
00:00:10Just use your own money.
00:00:12I gave you all my savings just so you would marry me.
00:00:15The house, the car, they're in your name. My paychecks go directly to your bank account, please. Please just help me.
00:00:20She's so old anyway. I mean, a funeral would be cheaper than wasting money on treatments, right?
00:00:26Gotta go. Bye.
00:00:30Your delivery is about to expire.
00:00:36I have to make money. I need to hurry up.
00:00:54You alright?
00:00:56Do you need a doctor?
00:01:00I almost need any.
00:01:14Alright, let's not get too touchy now.
00:01:16I'll cover the damages, though. Name your post.
00:01:18Your delivery is about to expire.
00:01:21This order is almost late.
00:01:22I gotta go.
00:01:23You're late.
00:01:36Wait, wait, look. I know I'm late. I'm sorry.
00:01:38But if you just give me a five-star rating, I'd really appreciate it.
00:01:40Forget the food.
00:01:41I can't wait another second. I want you to do that tongue trick again.
00:01:47That's fine.
00:01:51Amber.
00:01:52Ethan!
00:01:55Amber.
00:01:56Ethan!
00:01:57So this is the husband.
00:01:59You didn't tell me he was a delivery driver. How much more pathetic can you get?
00:02:06Amber, for the past three years that we've been together, I've never once been unfaithful to you.
00:02:11I worked myself to the bone.
00:02:13Just to get you every handbag that you wanted.
00:02:16All for this?
00:02:17Ethan, Lance is a millionaire.
00:02:24And he actually cares about my family.
00:02:26He's buying my brother a house because you wouldn't.
00:02:31Congrats, Amber.
00:02:32You upgraded.
00:02:34Hey, man. No hard feelings.
00:02:36Though, uh, you'll definitely miss her in the bedroom.
00:02:39She's, uh, quite the performer.
00:02:42So, hmm?
00:02:45Ethan!
00:02:46Think about your mother.
00:02:47She's still in the ICU.
00:02:49If you go to jail,
00:02:51who's gonna take care of her?
00:02:58You'll regret this, ain't you?
00:03:04I saw those golden numbers above Amber and that cheating bastard again.
00:03:08Am I losing my mind?
00:03:20What happened to me in that accident?
00:03:220.5 out of 0.5?
00:03:28What does that even mean?
00:03:32I can see life spans.
00:03:34If it was going to die, the numbers would turn red.
00:03:37Does that mean I can actually change my fate?
00:03:41Now I need to make money.
00:03:42This whole place is a scam.
00:03:58Wait.
00:03:59That's real.
00:04:00My powers are evolving.
00:04:09Living things show life spans.
00:04:11Objects show age and value.
00:04:13Cool.
00:04:13Hey.
00:04:17You, my friend, have a great eye.
00:04:19You're holding my most prized possession.
00:04:21That right there is from the Roman Empire.
00:04:24Roman Empire.
00:04:25Mm-hmm.
00:04:25Yeah.
00:04:26It looks like it was minted last week.
00:04:28No, no, that's, uh, I just gave it a nice polish.
00:04:30Gotcha.
00:04:31Okay.
00:04:31Uh, I'll take it.
00:04:33How much?
00:04:33For you, only $300,000.
00:04:37Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:04:38No, don't go anywhere.
00:04:39Don't go anywhere.
00:04:39Make me an offer.
00:04:40Let's negotiate.
00:04:42$300.
00:04:43No, $1,000.
00:04:46$300.
00:04:49Final offer.
00:04:50Take it or leave it.
00:04:52Fine, fine.
00:04:53All right, just deal.
00:04:55Well, Jesus Christ, you're killing me, all right?
00:04:57Just take it before I change my mind.
00:04:59Thanks.
00:05:01Idiot.
00:05:01Fished that out of a dumpster yesterday.
00:05:04Maybe worth a few pennies.
00:05:12Hey, don't touch anything.
00:05:14You break it, you buy it.
00:05:16I'm here to sell.
00:05:18Oh, yeah?
00:05:22This is the real deal.
00:05:23But this kid looks clueless.
00:05:26Lucky me.
00:05:28Not bad.
00:05:29Post-World War II era.
00:05:31Common, though.
00:05:32The engraving is a little sloppy.
00:05:35I'll give you $5,000.
00:05:38Do I look stupid to you?
00:05:39Hey, that's a good deal.
00:05:41Most wouldn't offer you that much.
00:05:43Okay.
00:05:43First off, this is from the early federal period.
00:05:47Second, this was one of the first coins struck by the Philadelphia Mint.
00:05:51And third, I won $100,000 for it.
00:05:54Not a penny less.
00:05:56Damn.
00:05:56He's no amateur.
00:05:59My apologies.
00:06:00I misjudged you.
00:06:03$100,000, you said?
00:06:04Yeah.
00:06:05Let me cut you a check right now.
00:06:06You're going to be okay, Mom.
00:06:14Hey, what can I help you get these with?
00:06:16We're looking for Byzantine-era jewelry.
00:06:19Let me go see what I have for you.
00:06:20Thank you so much.
00:06:21All right, let's see.
00:06:26It's you.
00:06:29You took off after the crash.
00:06:31I was worried you were dead in a ditch somewhere.
00:06:34Not dead.
00:06:36Very much alive, actually.
00:06:38Ironically, I should be thanking you.
00:06:40That crash, it awakens something in me.
00:06:42Something that will help me.
00:06:47This morning, she had decades left.
00:06:53Okay, listen.
00:06:54I know you're probably going to think I'm crazy for saying this.
00:06:57Please don't freak out, but I think you're about to die.
00:07:04We just met, and you're cursing me to die young?
00:07:14Let me guess.
00:07:15Next, you'll try to sell us some magic charm to avoid this terrible fate.
00:07:20Yeah, we know your type.
00:07:22You have to listen.
00:07:24I'll just try to help.
00:07:25Why is she still here?
00:07:35Get her out now.
00:07:36Dr. Morrison, she's critical.
00:07:38Moving her could kill her.
00:07:39Keeping her here is a waste of resources.
00:07:41She's taking a bed another patient could use.
00:07:44But her son is still gathering the funds.
00:07:47Her son?
00:07:48The delivery boy?
00:07:49Let's just pull the plug and end her misery.
00:07:52Get away from her.
00:08:02Sorry.
00:08:03If you can't make the payment, there's nothing else we can do.
00:08:06We've told you that several times already.
00:08:08You're going to kill her.
00:08:10Sorry, no payment.
00:08:11No treatment.
00:08:12Dr. Morrison, how's my hotel room coming along?
00:08:17You know I love these comfy, comfy ICU beds.
00:08:20Any delay in Lance's treatment will cost you dearly.
00:08:24We can even sue for malpractice.
00:08:26His knee almost bleeding.
00:08:28I'm handling it personally.
00:08:30He refuses to leave.
00:08:31Would you like me to call security?
00:08:35Ethan.
00:08:36My condolences about your mother.
00:08:39She's not dead, you asshole.
00:08:40Yeah, cool.
00:08:42Whatever.
00:08:43Dr. Morrison, I will donate $10 million to your hospital if you get these losers out of
00:08:49here in one minute.
00:08:50Do you have the $80,000 for payment or not?
00:08:54He doesn't even have $8 because we didn't tip him.
00:08:57I have a proposal for you.
00:08:59Why don't you kiss my shoe?
00:09:00$10K for one kiss.
00:09:03Pay for a funeral expenses at least.
00:09:04Who says I can't pay for her treatment myself?
00:09:24Congrats.
00:09:25You paid for one more night $80,000 for a night in the ICU.
00:09:30Who will pay for it from here on out?
00:09:35I will.
00:09:39Thanks for the business, ladies.
00:09:41Mm-hmm.
00:09:41I think you're about to die.
00:09:48Van, you're not actually buying that Conardist story, are you?
00:09:52What if he's right?
00:09:54No, no.
00:09:55He can't be.
00:09:56You are being crazy, Vanessa.
00:09:59Let's just wait a few more minutes.
00:10:02Can't hurt, right?
00:10:03Okay.
00:10:03It's been 10 minutes and nothing happened.
00:10:11We need to get back to prepare for your grandfather's Christmas party.
00:10:14Get a grip, Vanessa.
00:10:15He was clearly concussed and not in his right mind.
00:10:20I think I'm like, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:10:23I'm sorry.
00:10:24I'm sorry.
00:10:24I'm sorry.
00:10:25Oh my God!
00:10:27Oh my God, he was telling the truth?
00:10:30How did he know?
00:10:31Dear God, what is happening out here?
00:10:35I was just bringing you these.
00:10:37You left them behind.
00:10:39Oh my God, it's a critical illness notification.
00:10:42Grace Cole, Ethan Cole, Trinity.
00:10:45Oh God, his mother is in our hospital.
00:10:46Get me everything you can find on that man.
00:10:48I want his full file in 10 minutes.
00:10:50We're going to Trinity.
00:10:55Who will pay for it from here on out?
00:11:01Ms. Shaw?
00:11:10Ms. Shaw?
00:11:12Are you the hospital director?
00:11:14Yes, nice to see you.
00:11:16Yes, you're not the hospital director anymore.
00:11:21I don't...
00:11:22No, I'm the hospital director.
00:11:24You, ensure that Mrs. Cole has the best room and the best specialists.
00:11:33If you do save her, you might just be the new hospital director.
00:11:37Of course, Ms. Shaw.
00:11:41Who the hell are you to waltz in here giving orders, bitch?
00:11:45Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:11:46How cute.
00:11:50You must be Amber Young, Ethan's ex-wife.
00:11:54I could tell from all the bad Botox.
00:11:56How dare you?
00:11:58Hey, hey, why, why, why, why, why?
00:11:59Shut up.
00:12:01That's Ms. Shaw.
00:12:03Don't say another word.
00:12:05Yes.
00:12:05Allow me to introduce myself.
00:12:07I'm Vanessa Shaw, president of the Shaw Group.
00:12:10And Ethan's life.
00:12:16What?
00:12:18How is that even possible?
00:12:20Someone like you would never marry someone like him.
00:12:24Oh, honey, you threw away a diamond.
00:12:28Which isn't surprising.
00:12:29You probably can't tell the difference between gold and copper.
00:12:33Are you sure you want to do this?
00:12:35I wish I could tell them how he saved my life.
00:12:37How it was destiny.
00:12:40Vanessa is destined for greatness.
00:12:44But she is cursed to die at 23.
00:12:48If she survives, her future is limitless.
00:12:53How do we break the curse?
00:13:00It cannot be broken.
00:13:02Only a faded man can save her.
00:13:05So that's it.
00:13:13You're nothing but a male hoe.
00:13:16I mean, surely you could do better than this little delivery driver, right?
00:13:21It's Shaw.
00:13:26How dare you?
00:13:28My father hasn't even eaten.
00:13:30Your father never taught you any manners.
00:13:33It's actually so funny because I could bankrupt your family with one phone call.
00:13:39My husband is very gentle.
00:13:42Me, on the other hand, I have a pretty short temper.
00:13:45Don't.
00:13:47Test it.
00:13:53You okay?
00:13:54I hate seeing them bully you like that.
00:13:56Why are you doing all this for me?
00:13:58You were right.
00:14:00At the antique shop.
00:14:02My car exploded and I almost died.
00:14:04Excuse me.
00:14:05Have you forgotten?
00:14:07We're still married.
00:14:11Got it.
00:14:13See?
00:14:14Then let's go to town hall and get divorced.
00:14:16I'm done with you.
00:14:17So you can run to your sugar mommy?
00:14:19Fine.
00:14:19But it'll cost you.
00:14:21Three million and I'll sign.
00:14:23I'll never do that, Amber.
00:14:25I will.
00:14:26Three million.
00:14:30I'll pay the net.
00:14:31Maybe now you can afford some decent Botox.
00:14:41Go ahead.
00:14:42Take the money.
00:14:43But just know I'll make you pay back every cent with interest.
00:14:55I'm going to check something.
00:14:57Okay.
00:14:58All right.
00:14:58Here it is.
00:14:59So, the Shaw family patriarch is actually sick.
00:15:03There's a whole, like, battle over the inheritance.
00:15:06Vanessa definitely has a better chance if she's married to someone.
00:15:12So that's where the money came from.
00:15:15No wonder she picked up trash like Ethan.
00:15:18She's just using that pushover.
00:15:21I mean, the Shaw family is going to kick that dude out in, like, two days.
00:15:25They'll never accept him.
00:15:27After that, that's when we strike.
00:15:30Huh?
00:15:32Come on, babe.
00:15:36You can drop me off at the bus station up there.
00:15:38Oh, hey.
00:15:40What's wrong?
00:15:41I thought you were coming to my grandpa's party.
00:15:45I don't think it's a good idea.
00:15:46The three million.
00:15:49I'm so, so grateful.
00:15:51I'll pay you back.
00:15:52No, no, no.
00:15:53Ethan, you can't bail now.
00:15:55I told my entire family I was bringing my, say, to my grandpa's holiday party.
00:16:00I really don't think it's a good idea.
00:16:05Okay, Ethan, just this one thing, I promise, and then you can go.
00:16:12Okay.
00:16:13Fine.
00:16:15Who knew a delivery driver I hit with my car would save my life?
00:16:19He really is a diamond.
00:16:20I'll buy this.
00:16:33That box has been gathering dust for three years.
00:16:36Guess this idiot's buying junk now.
00:16:40How much?
00:16:41Ten thousand.
00:16:42Um, ten thousand for that.
00:16:45That looks like it's worth ten dollars.
00:16:48All sales are final.
00:16:50Take it or leave it.
00:16:52If you give that to Vanessa's grandfather,
00:16:55you are going to be laughed out of their mansion.
00:17:04Whoa.
00:17:06You okay?
00:17:10Yeah.
00:17:11Damn fine.
00:17:13Still a little lightheaded from the accident.
00:17:15Seems like I have extra vision now, too.
00:17:20My power must be evolving.
00:17:23I'm sure your grandfather will love this.
00:17:26This party is your chance to impress him, Van.
00:17:31Sounds like she's got family issues.
00:17:34Let's make a hell of an impression at this party.
00:17:36The Shaw Empire began right here.
00:17:42From a single clinic to the largest pharmaceutical group in L.A.
00:17:47My father, Vincent Shaw, grew this company over the past 15 years.
00:17:54Today, on Christmas, we honor that legacy.
00:17:58My branch brought Christmas gifts in honor of his legacy.
00:18:03Uncle Paul, don't strain yourself.
00:18:06The first branch will always be the heart of this family.
00:18:10Where's the third branch?
00:18:12Late as usual.
00:18:13I mean, does anyone even care if Vanessa shows up?
00:18:17It's not like she's real competition anyways.
00:18:19I am going to grab Grandpa's gift and get myself ready.
00:18:26I will be right back.
00:18:28Okay?
00:18:28Okay.
00:18:31They still doubt my gift.
00:18:33Well, they're in for a surprise.
00:18:36Please, save my son.
00:18:39He needs medical treatment.
00:18:40How dare you show up on a holiday?
00:18:42Leave immediately.
00:18:44Peter, it's a child's life.
00:18:45Unusual.
00:18:54Take a look, Peter.
00:19:01Heart failure.
00:19:03There's no help for him.
00:19:05I'm sorry, but you really must leave.
00:19:13Leave.
00:19:14You call yourself doctors?
00:19:18You'd let a child die so you can have your party?
00:19:26The Shas don't treat hopeless cases.
00:19:29Failure hurts our reputation.
00:19:31Goodbye.
00:19:40Are you a Shah?
00:19:41Please help my son.
00:19:42There's water in his lungs.
00:19:55What?
00:19:55How do you know that?
00:19:56Are you medically trained?
00:19:58No, I'm not a doctor, so you can still refuse my help.
00:20:02Has he been around water recently?
00:20:05Yes.
00:20:06He passed out after his bath.
00:20:08I turned my back for a second.
00:20:09I'm a bad mother.
00:20:11You're not a bad mother.
00:20:13You must have just accidentally swallowed some water.
00:20:15That's it.
00:20:17Oh my god, he's turning blue.
00:20:19Please help him.
00:20:26Oh my god, he's breathing again.
00:20:29He still needs care though, right?
00:20:31Just take him to the hospital right now.
00:20:33You're a saint.
00:20:35I'm Lydia Waldorf.
00:20:36My family will reward you handsomely.
00:20:39What's your name?
00:20:40Methan corn.
00:20:41No reward needed, all right?
00:20:42Just get him to the hospital.
00:20:43Just get him to the hospital.
00:21:02Shaloli?
00:21:03Darling?
00:21:04Show me the way.
00:21:06Is he doing?
00:21:06Good.
00:21:07Oh, what's this?
00:21:16The famous fiance, Vanessa?
00:21:20You got a problem, Frank?
00:21:22I know every important person in this city.
00:21:25I don't recognize you.
00:21:27I'm not part of any important family.
00:21:29I'm just an ordinary dude.
00:21:31Wow.
00:21:32I didn't know you were doing charity work already, Vanessa.
00:21:36That's good.
00:21:37Not really.
00:21:37That's good for you.
00:21:38Yeah.
00:21:39Hey, brah.
00:21:40Brah.
00:21:41We live in separate worlds.
00:21:43You're like Neptune, okay?
00:21:45This is Earth.
00:21:47We don't breathe the same air, brah.
00:21:50Okay?
00:21:50You should probably fucking leave.
00:21:52Before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:21:55If she marries, she claims her share of the fortune.
00:22:01A Shaw's daughter marrying a loser.
00:22:04Take this million and disappear from our lives forever.
00:22:13I told you this was a bad idea.
00:22:19No, no, I got this.
00:22:20Whoa.
00:22:21What's the matter?
00:22:23It's not enough?
00:22:24No?
00:22:25You wouldn't make a million dollars in your entire lifetime.
00:22:32Don't get greedy, young man.
00:22:34It's very unbecoming, even from the less privileged.
00:22:39Peter, since when do you get to decide who I marry?
00:22:42How dare you disrespect your uncle?
00:22:46I call you uncle as a courtesy.
00:22:49And let's remember who has the power to cut funding from your entire branch.
00:22:54Or who can approve of your $3 million allocation.
00:22:59Right?
00:22:59Mr. Vincent Shaw has arrived.
00:23:08Vanessa, so, this is the man you've chosen.
00:23:15You've got a good face, son.
00:23:18Grandfather, please keep your children in check.
00:23:23They've been harassing us since we got here.
00:23:25Oh, that's rich.
00:23:28She was late to her own grandfather's Christmas card.
00:23:31The most important event of the year.
00:23:34And you're trying to drag us into your drama, Vanessa?
00:23:37We were delayed.
00:23:41It wasn't that lady out front, was it?
00:23:43Tell me you didn't offer to treat her son.
00:23:46Don't embarrass the Sean Naye.
00:23:48We did, actually.
00:23:49And I cured the boy.
00:23:53You!
00:23:55You're not even a doctor!
00:23:57I've been practicing for 30 years.
00:23:59And I didn't even claim to cure that child.
00:24:03What's your experience?
00:24:06This nobody is digging his own grave.
00:24:10Perfect chance to ruin him.
00:24:13Father, I examined the patient myself.
00:24:17His heart condition was terminal.
00:24:20Yet this delivery boy claims he cured him?
00:24:23He's clearly lying to win over your favors.
00:24:27This delivery boy has a name.
00:24:32Ethan.
00:24:33The child's illness was indeed incurable.
00:24:37Is Ethan mine?
00:24:38You know, I don't know you, young man.
00:24:41But I know that a lying tongue reflects a flawed character.
00:24:46Vanessa.
00:24:47I can't bless a match based on falsehoods.
00:24:51Mr. Shaw, I speak only the truth.
00:24:53All right, send someone to verify and you'll see.
00:24:55To verify?
00:24:56There's no witnesses.
00:24:58I mean, how convenient.
00:25:00Your source.
00:25:01Grandfather.
00:25:03I trust Ethan.
00:25:06Please just verify.
00:25:08And when you all see that he's telling the truth,
00:25:11there will be repercussions.
00:25:13Enough.
00:25:18Today is worth celebrating Christmas.
00:25:23Come on, Grandpa.
00:25:24You can take my seat.
00:25:26My favorite father.
00:25:28Thank you, son.
00:25:29Yes.
00:25:31Now, you're right.
00:25:33It's Christmas.
00:25:35I got a gift for you.
00:25:36This is a watch from Louis XIV.
00:25:41May your life be as enduring as time itself.
00:25:45Thank you, grandson.
00:25:49A gift from the first branch.
00:25:52An original deal.
00:25:57And from the second branch, your favorite branch.
00:26:00Hemingway's personal typewriter.
00:26:03Wow.
00:26:04Hemingway's own.
00:26:09Your gifts have touched my heart.
00:26:14I'm sure Vanessa's will outdo all of ours.
00:26:19Pull out your showstopper, niece.
00:26:26Grandfather, this was last minute.
00:26:29I hope it will suffice.
00:26:34Oh, my.
00:26:38Beautiful, certainly.
00:26:40But one would expect more substance
00:26:43than father's favorite granadol.
00:26:48Thanks, darling.
00:26:53Shall we dine?
00:26:54Wait, Vanessa.
00:26:56What about my gift?
00:26:57Okay, now, don't you dare.
00:26:58Put that down.
00:26:59Ethan is mistaken.
00:27:01Let's eat.
00:27:04Sir?
00:27:12Grandfather, don't.
00:27:14It's unworthy of your eyes.
00:27:15Your choice in gifts continues to surprise us, niece.
00:27:24Compared to all the trash that you got,
00:27:26I'd say mine exceeds all expectations.
00:27:29Excuse me?
00:27:30What did you just say about our gifts?
00:27:33Lucas is safe?
00:27:35Thank God.
00:27:37Lydia, you understand that we're going to owe the Shaw family big for this?
00:27:41Okay.
00:27:43Goodbye, sweetheart.
00:27:46Sir, we just learned that today is Vincent Shaw's Christmas party.
00:27:49Would you like to arrange for a gift to be sent?
00:27:51Hmm.
00:27:54Acquire something from the vault.
00:27:56Something high-dollar.
00:27:58And call for the car.
00:28:00I'll deliver it myself.
00:28:01But, sir, with all due respect,
00:28:04the Shaw's are beneath our level for personal visits.
00:28:08They saved my grandson.
00:28:10And the Waldorf's always honor it there.
00:28:15You don't even know what my gift is.
00:28:17Oh, yeah, I think I do, actually.
00:28:19I think it's a box that you found in the dumpster next to where you live.
00:28:22Mike, your pocket watch is a replica with modern mechanics worth maybe $1,000.
00:28:29Peter, your original peel is painted by a street artist.
00:28:33$50 at best.
00:28:34And Paul, your typewriter might be fetching $3,000.
00:28:39But this snuff box once belonged to Napoleon, valued at $2 million.
00:28:44You're in no position to question me.
00:28:46You do know who Napoleon is, right?
00:28:48How dare you accuse us of bringing fakes?
00:28:52Grandfather, you better kick him out right now or I'll handle this myself.
00:28:57Please, sit.
00:29:01Vanessa, I'm deeply disappointed in your taste in men.
00:29:08Please leave.
00:29:09No.
00:29:10Ethan, stop.
00:29:15Don't leave when you've done nothing wrong.
00:29:18Get out.
00:29:19Now.
00:29:20Don't talk to him now.
00:29:21You betrayed this family for this liar?
00:29:25Father, I gave you everything after you lost your parents.
00:29:31How could you stoop so low?
00:29:34Unbelievable, Vanessa.
00:29:36You're not even married yet.
00:29:38And you're already taking his side?
00:29:40You know what?
00:29:41I think I figured it out.
00:29:43This is all just a ploy for her to try to take the Shah Group and make it the Cold Group.
00:29:49Grandfather, do not let her destroy our good name.
00:29:53Effective immediately, Vanessa is removed as president of the Shah Group.
00:30:15Charles Waldorf, president of the Waldorf Group has arrived.
00:30:20Merry Christmas, old friend.
00:30:31Merry Christmas, old friend.
00:30:33Your presence honors us beyond measure, Charles.
00:30:40Charles Waldorf here in the flesh?
00:30:44Definitely a testament to our family's reputation.
00:30:46Charles is a renowned collector and appraiser, but does he warrant difference from Paul there?
00:30:52You underestimate him.
00:30:54Collecting his new to his past IP, he chairs California's medical association and controls
00:31:00the state's entire medical trade.
00:31:03Even the Shah's was remaining as good graces.
00:31:07I can't afford to miss this chance to make an impression.
00:31:09This could shape my entire future.
00:31:11I come here today for two things.
00:31:14To celebrate a patriarch's milestone and repay a debt of gratitude.
00:31:20My daughter Lydia and my grandson Lucas were passing by their estate the other day
00:31:24when the boy mysteriously fell ill.
00:31:27Someone in your family saved his life.
00:31:29And I'm here to meet that hero personally.
00:31:32So that woman and child were Waldorf's?
00:31:35But you didn't offer treatment.
00:31:37Now that I recall, Mike was the last to enter the mansion.
00:31:45Yeah, I saw him in the room outside.
00:31:48He must have seen his childhood.
00:31:50Yes.
00:31:52He must have recognized the case without our capabilities.
00:31:55He discreetly provided aid to his fair art.
00:31:58Professional pride.
00:31:59Peter, you've raised that beautiful man, child.
00:32:05Was that you, son?
00:32:07If they think I saved this child and am a savior,
00:32:12then the family's succession is mine for the taking.
00:32:14Yes.
00:32:16Father, it was.
00:32:18I stayed behind to treat the boy discreetly
00:32:21because I didn't want to make a big deal about it.
00:32:23I just, I just wanted to save that poor boy's life.
00:32:29I was the one who saved that boy.
00:32:33Eden, you're smart, but you're not a doctor.
00:32:36Great.
00:32:37You don't believe me either.
00:32:39Shut it.
00:32:40Van is sacrificing everything for you
00:32:42and you're about to put us out of a job.
00:32:45I'm so grateful to you, son.
00:32:47And your compassion astonishes me.
00:32:49The Waldors will always remember this kindness.
00:32:52That's my son.
00:32:54Stop, stop, stop, please.
00:32:55Please.
00:32:56You know I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:32:59Not only skilled, but humbled and discreet.
00:33:02From this day forward,
00:33:05I'm appointing you as CEO of the Shah Group.
00:33:09Oh, Grandpa.
00:33:10Grandpa, are you sure?
00:33:12Look, I promise.
00:33:13I will not let you down.
00:33:15No, that's great.
00:33:17Yeah, well, thanks to you,
00:33:18Van lost out on running the court
00:33:20and I lost out on being chief of staff.
00:33:23God, I need a fucking martini.
00:33:25Okay, so it's my fault that I saved that child?
00:33:27Vanessa,
00:33:28I trust that you're a judgment,
00:33:31but this man
00:33:32is a fraud and a liar.
00:33:36If you leave him,
00:33:37I will reconsider your place in the family.
00:33:41Grandpa, I'm sorry.
00:33:43I believe him.
00:33:45Hey, sweetie.
00:33:49Father, I forgot to mention.
00:33:51The man who saved us
00:33:52was some guy named Ethan, I think.
00:33:54Yes, Ethan Cole.
00:33:56Send him my love, please.
00:34:00Okay, thank you.
00:34:03Mr. Waldorf?
00:34:05You look a little shocked.
00:34:07Mike, come here.
00:34:09Come on.
00:34:10Yes, sir?
00:34:11Come a little closer.
00:34:12Oh!
00:34:15Ow!
00:34:17What was that for?
00:34:19How dare you take credit for something.
00:34:21You lied.
00:34:23You're a fraud.
00:34:25The real person that saved my grandson
00:34:27is Ethan Cole.
00:34:31No.
00:34:32Go sit down.
00:34:36You must be Ethan Cole.
00:34:39Hello, sir.
00:34:40I failed to recognize my benefactor,
00:34:43and I can usually smell a rat.
00:34:46It's nothing, sir.
00:34:47I'm just glad your grandson's all right.
00:34:48Was he?
00:34:50How?
00:34:50I tried to tell you.
00:34:52Mr. Waldorf,
00:34:54there must be some mistake.
00:34:55Ethan isn't even a doctor.
00:34:58We all examined your grandchild,
00:35:00and the condition was incurable.
00:35:02Perhaps we should investigate further.
00:35:05Are you questioning me?
00:35:07Oh, no, sir.
00:35:08Not at all.
00:35:09I apologize.
00:35:10How did you save Lucas?
00:35:12He just got some water in his lungs.
00:35:15It really was a minor condition,
00:35:16but clearly the Shaw family here
00:35:18didn't take the time
00:35:19to properly evaluate him.
00:35:21You did CPR on a child's chest?
00:35:25You could have killed him!
00:35:26No, Peter.
00:35:28Ethan did the right thing.
00:35:31We should be ashamed of ourselves
00:35:32for not considering that.
00:35:34The Great Shaw Medical Dynasty,
00:35:36outdone by one young man.
00:35:38Get a handle on your boys, Vincent.
00:35:40I hate liars.
00:35:42Ethan,
00:35:43I misjudged you.
00:35:45You have some incredible talents.
00:35:48We owe you an apology, Ethan.
00:35:51The goal you have
00:35:52to try and deceive a Waldorf.
00:35:54No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:35:55I was just confused
00:35:57with another child.
00:35:58I'm sorry.
00:35:59Apologize to Ethan.
00:36:01Seriously?
00:36:02Bang!
00:36:04Okay.
00:36:05Okay, hey, hey, buddy.
00:36:07Look, I know we don't know
00:36:08each other that well,
00:36:08but, you know,
00:36:09Vanessa and I,
00:36:10we're just competitive,
00:36:12but, you know,
00:36:12we're just a family, okay?
00:36:14Just water under the bridge.
00:36:18Ethan,
00:36:19just say the word
00:36:20and I'll make them disappear.
00:36:21Disappear?
00:36:22Please, have mercy.
00:36:24Okay, dude, I'm sorry.
00:36:25All right, please, please.
00:36:27Vanessa.
00:36:28Ethan is still thin.
00:36:31It's weird.
00:36:32Get your hands off.
00:36:33Yeah, okay.
00:36:34You lied
00:36:36about treating a child.
00:36:38That's about as low
00:36:38as a person can go.
00:36:40I don't know about that.
00:36:41Uncle Paul's done
00:36:42some weird shit.
00:36:43It's up.
00:36:43He's a little fool.
00:36:45Hey, hold on!
00:36:46Who's that?
00:36:46Please, please,
00:36:47grab him!
00:36:48Dad, Uncle Paul!
00:36:51What should have been
00:36:52a joyous occasion
00:36:53has been marred
00:36:55by my temper.
00:36:56Let me offer
00:36:57these three gifts
00:36:58to Mr. Shah
00:36:59for an apology.
00:37:00What are these?
00:37:07This was Mike's gift,
00:37:11worn by Louis XIV himself,
00:37:14powered by antique mechanics.
00:37:20If Waldorf praises this piece
00:37:22and speaks well of us to bother,
00:37:25the first branch
00:37:26might still recover.
00:37:28This is clearly a replica.
00:37:29Smooth movement,
00:37:31odd mechanics.
00:37:33Probably worth $1,000.
00:37:35But it came directly
00:37:36from Versailles.
00:37:37Are you questioning
00:37:38my expertise?
00:37:39You clearly don't have
00:37:40an eye for luxury goods.
00:37:43And what is this monstrosity
00:37:45that is posing as appeal
00:37:47that was obviously painted
00:37:49by some street artist?
00:37:51Mr. Shah,
00:37:52forgive my bluntness,
00:37:53but it appears
00:37:54that either your offspring
00:37:55is deceiving you
00:37:56with cheap goods
00:37:57or they lack refining.
00:37:59Peter,
00:38:01first your son steals credit
00:38:03and you gift me
00:38:05forgeries.
00:38:06You're a disgrace
00:38:07and no longer
00:38:09part of this family.
00:38:10But father!
00:38:11What is this?
00:38:12this Byzantine emerald
00:38:25is a real beauty.
00:38:27Probably worth
00:38:28several hundred thousand.
00:38:32Hmm.
00:38:33How is that good?
00:38:37Why, this piece of junk?
00:38:39Junk?
00:38:41Let me see this.
00:38:46This isn't junk.
00:38:47This is Napoleon's
00:38:48personal snuff box.
00:38:50It's a peace offering
00:38:51from the Prussian king.
00:38:53Look at the turtle shell
00:38:54translucency.
00:38:56The wood grain.
00:38:57This is obviously authentic.
00:38:59Worth at least
00:38:59two million dollars.
00:39:01Two million?
00:39:02So the third match
00:39:05is gift
00:39:05and shines us all.
00:39:07Mr. Waldorf's assessment
00:39:08matches Ethan's
00:39:09exactly.
00:39:13Not only
00:39:14are you a medical expert,
00:39:16Ethan,
00:39:16but an antique
00:39:17honor sort.
00:39:19Ethan,
00:39:20I misjudged you.
00:39:22Your skill set
00:39:23is something
00:39:24I have never seen.
00:39:26I told you
00:39:27I had good taste.
00:39:31So Ethan's
00:39:32evaluation
00:39:33matched mine.
00:39:34That's remarkable
00:39:35insight for someone
00:39:36so young.
00:39:37It was nothing.
00:39:38Truly.
00:39:39Since you're so talented,
00:39:41let me test
00:39:41your skills further.
00:39:43Ethan,
00:39:44come over here.
00:39:51This is a
00:39:52Greek red vase
00:39:53that I've just
00:39:53acquired recently.
00:39:56I've been in this
00:39:57business for decades.
00:39:59The shape looks right,
00:40:00the texture,
00:40:01the color,
00:40:03but something
00:40:03just seems
00:40:04off.
00:40:09A forgery
00:40:10by the Renaissance
00:40:11master counterfeiter
00:40:12of Rasmus.
00:40:14I see nothing wrong
00:40:15externally.
00:40:17Perhaps
00:40:17he's not as skilled
00:40:18as I thought.
00:40:19If you don't mind
00:40:19me asking,
00:40:20how much do you
00:40:21pay for it?
00:40:2330 million.
00:40:23Oh,
00:40:26I'm sorry,
00:40:26sir.
00:40:27I'm afraid
00:40:28you've wasted
00:40:28your money.
00:40:29So you think
00:40:31it's a fate?
00:40:32You see,
00:40:32the flaws
00:40:33don't lie
00:40:33on the outside.
00:40:35It's a thing.
00:40:38The floor's
00:40:38too clean.
00:40:40Don't do that,
00:40:41Ethan.
00:40:42Unless you're
00:40:43absolutely certain
00:40:44you better not
00:40:46show
00:40:47hell!
00:40:48Have you
00:40:54lost your
00:40:55mind?
00:40:56Our whole
00:40:57liquidity of our
00:40:58company isn't even
00:40:59worth 30 million,
00:41:00you dumbass!
00:41:01Mr. Waldorf,
00:41:03Ethan is acting
00:41:03alone,
00:41:04so if you want
00:41:05to press charges
00:41:05against her,
00:41:06we fully support you.
00:41:09You're all
00:41:10pathetic
00:41:11and spineless.
00:41:12I'm sure
00:41:13Ethan has a good
00:41:14reason for breaking
00:41:15the face,
00:41:16right?
00:41:17It's clear as day.
00:41:25Fabrica
00:41:26Parasas.
00:41:29It's
00:41:30unfortunate.
00:41:33Congratulations,
00:41:34old friend.
00:41:35With this remarkable
00:41:36new son-in-law,
00:41:37the Shahs will
00:41:38surely rise,
00:41:39perhaps even
00:41:39becoming one of
00:41:40LA's wealthiest
00:41:41families.
00:41:42His eye is
00:41:43unlike anything
00:41:44I've ever
00:41:44witnessed.
00:41:46From this

00:41:58Thank fucking
00:41:58God!
00:42:07Ethan,
00:42:08the gifts
00:42:09earlier that
00:42:09were for the
00:42:10Shahs,
00:42:11this is for
00:42:12you.
00:42:12It's a villa
00:42:13in Sunshine
00:42:14Hills.
00:42:15It's a token
00:42:15of our
00:42:16appreciation.
00:42:17Please enjoy
00:42:18it.
00:42:18No, sir,
00:42:20Sunshine Hills
00:42:21is like a
00:42:21five million
00:42:22dollar property.
00:42:24Sir, thank
00:42:25you.
00:42:27But I can't
00:42:28accept this.
00:42:29Are you
00:42:29suggesting that
00:42:30my grandson
00:42:31isn't worth
00:42:32one villa?
00:42:34You insist.
00:42:37And your appraisal
00:42:38skills are
00:42:38unmatched.
00:42:39I'm sure
00:42:40I'll be
00:42:40using your
00:42:41expertise
00:42:41here shortly.
00:42:42Give me
00:42:43a call.
00:42:48Ethan,
00:42:49the hospital
00:42:50just called.
00:42:51Your mother
00:42:51woke up.
00:42:54It's amazing.
00:43:03Hello?
00:43:04Hello?
00:43:06Yes, yes,
00:43:06I'll be right there.
00:43:07Okay.
00:43:10Ethan, I'm
00:43:10sorry, I can't
00:43:11come.
00:43:12There's
00:43:12something I have
00:43:12to do with
00:43:13on the lab.
00:43:13You're fine.
00:43:15I'll take care
00:43:16of things here.
00:43:16Okay.
00:43:25Mr. Cole,
00:43:27your mother's
00:43:27condition is
00:43:28stabilized.
00:43:29With proper
00:43:29medication,
00:43:31she can be
00:43:31discharged.
00:43:32Though, I do
00:43:33recommend a month's
00:43:34observation.
00:43:34whenever you
00:43:36say that.
00:43:37Baby, let's
00:43:37go home.
00:43:39This place
00:43:39is too
00:43:40expensive.
00:43:41Shh, well,
00:43:42don't worry
00:43:42about the cost.
00:43:44Okay, it's
00:43:44covered.
00:43:45Indeed.
00:43:46Mr. Cole
00:43:47has connections
00:43:48with our CEO,
00:43:51Ms. Shaw.
00:43:51I don't want you
00:43:52to be indebted
00:43:53to anyone,
00:43:54and I can't
00:43:55really sleep
00:43:56well here.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:58If you insist,
00:43:59I'll take you
00:44:00to our new home.
00:44:01new home.
00:44:04With what
00:44:04money?
00:44:05I mean,
00:44:05you barely
00:44:06have a job.
00:44:08You better
00:44:08not be doing
00:44:09something illegal.
00:44:11Relax, Mom.
00:44:12I promise you
00:44:12everything's
00:44:13legitimate.
00:44:14Okay?
00:44:14I'll explain
00:44:14on the way.
00:44:15Then all my
00:44:16things are at
00:44:17the old place.
00:44:18I'll buy you
00:44:18new things.
00:44:21A lot has
00:44:22changed since
00:44:22I was in a
00:44:23coma, I guess.
00:44:24More than you
00:44:25could ever
00:44:25imagine.
00:44:28Rest.
00:44:28I'll pack up
00:44:29your things.
00:44:30Thank you,
00:44:31honey.
00:44:31I love you.
00:44:32Love you, Mom.
00:44:33Thanks, Duncan.
00:44:39Hey, hubby.
00:44:41Amber, get
00:44:42the hell away
00:44:43from me.
00:44:44We're through.
00:44:45Hey, drop
00:44:46the act.
00:44:47We know
00:44:47Vanessa's using
00:44:48you as a beard
00:44:49just so she
00:44:49could take power.
00:44:50She's using
00:44:51you.
00:44:52Someone like
00:44:53her would not
00:44:54be into someone
00:44:54like you.
00:44:56You're eating
00:44:57like a lost
00:44:57dog.
00:44:58Did she kick
00:44:58you out already?
00:45:00We won't take
00:45:00up too much
00:45:01of her time,
00:45:02but we did
00:45:03want to invite
00:45:04you to our
00:45:04wedding.
00:45:07You really
00:45:08enjoy my
00:45:08seconds, don't
00:45:09you, Lance?
00:45:10Yeah, and
00:45:10you're my
00:45:10forgettable
00:45:11first.
00:45:12What Lance
00:45:13and I have
00:45:14is real
00:45:15love.
00:45:17You should
00:45:17make an
00:45:18appearance.
00:45:19Bring
00:45:19Miss Shaw.
00:45:20It'll be
00:45:21unforgettable.
00:45:22Don't you
00:45:23worry.
00:45:24I'll be
00:45:25there.
00:45:26And I
00:45:26promise you
00:45:27it'll be a
00:45:28night you
00:45:29never forget.
00:45:34Oh my
00:45:39goodness.
00:45:40Wow.
00:45:41I...
00:45:42Well, yeah,
00:45:48that's pretty much
00:45:48everything that's
00:45:49happened.
00:45:50It's been a
00:45:50whirlwind, but
00:45:51I promise
00:45:52every dollar's
00:45:53clean.
00:45:53I don't
00:45:54know what
00:45:55to say.
00:45:58It's your
00:45:59son's name
00:45:59right there.
00:46:00It sure
00:46:01is.
00:46:02I am so
00:46:02proud of my
00:46:03boy.
00:46:04I didn't
00:46:05really like
00:46:05Amber anyway.
00:46:08Um, kind
00:46:09of slutty if
00:46:10you ask me.
00:46:11Yeah.
00:46:12What about
00:46:13a new
00:46:15daughter-in-law?
00:46:16A daughter-in-law.
00:46:17That'll happen
00:46:18when it happens,
00:46:19okay?
00:46:19I just
00:46:21want you to
00:46:21be happy,
00:46:22darling.
00:46:23I will
00:46:24be.
00:46:30Hello?
00:46:31Ethan, I'm
00:46:32heading to an
00:46:32auction with
00:46:33some high-stakes
00:46:34pieces I'm not
00:46:34confident about.
00:46:35I'd value your
00:46:36eye if you're
00:46:37available.
00:46:38Okay.
00:46:39I'll head
00:46:39that way now.
00:46:42All right,
00:46:42I'll be back.
00:46:44I gotta go make
00:46:45some money for us,
00:46:45all right?
00:46:46I'll see you
00:46:47later.
00:46:47Enjoy it.
00:46:48Watch the TV.
00:46:48It's huge,
00:46:49all right?
00:46:50I love you.
00:46:51Love you,
00:46:51Mom.
00:47:01Three million,
00:47:02three hundred
00:47:02thousand.
00:47:03Three million,
00:47:04three hundred,
00:47:05and one thousand.
00:47:08Must you
00:47:08always overbid
00:47:10me by one thousand?
00:47:11Really,
00:47:11Joseph?
00:47:12It's allowed.
00:47:13Change the rules
00:47:14if you can.
00:47:15Otherwise,
00:47:16keep up
00:47:17or shut up.
00:47:18three million,
00:47:21three hundred
00:47:21and one thousand.
00:47:22Going once,
00:47:23twice,
00:47:25sold to Mr. Quinn
00:47:30for the Persian Shamshir.
00:47:33Not so powerful
00:47:34now, are you,
00:47:35Mr. Chairman
00:47:36of the Antique
00:47:37Association?
00:47:37Joseph is still upset
00:47:41that Dad beat him
00:47:41in the Antique
00:47:42Association election.
00:47:44He's been out
00:47:44for us ever since.
00:47:46So this is the headline
00:47:47items I wanted you to see.
00:47:49Rumor has it
00:47:50that one of these
00:47:51contain a flawless
00:47:5224 carat.
00:47:54But I can't risk
00:47:56guessing and get it wrong
00:47:57because Joseph
00:47:58will jack the price
00:47:59way up.
00:48:00Leave it to me,
00:48:01Charles.
00:48:01Claiming I can evaluate
00:48:05from here
00:48:05would make me
00:48:06sound like a phony.
00:48:07I'll need the right
00:48:07moment.
00:48:10Our final lots.
00:48:12Three premium,
00:48:13uncut diamonds
00:48:14from Botswana.
00:48:16The delegates
00:48:16may now approach
00:48:17for inspection.
00:48:19You might see
00:48:19a closer look.
00:48:23Charles,
00:48:24is that your expert?
00:48:26Is he even old
00:48:27enough to drink alcohol?
00:48:28Dad,
00:48:30are you sure
00:48:30about this?
00:48:31Sure,
00:48:31his medical skills
00:48:32are impressive,
00:48:33but gem appraisal?
00:48:35There's a lot of money
00:48:36on the line here.
00:48:37Trust me,
00:48:38he's the most skilled
00:48:39evaluator I've ever seen.
00:48:41If he wasn't already
00:48:42part of the Shaw family,
00:48:44I'd be having you
00:48:45try to get to know him.
00:48:58Lot one and two
00:49:04have moderate value.
00:49:07Lot three,
00:49:08that's the prize.
00:49:10Go for that one.
00:49:12Understood.
00:49:13But if we show our hand,
00:49:15Joseph's gonna raise
00:49:16the price.
00:49:18I got an idea.
00:49:19Lot one,
00:49:27uncut diamond.
00:49:29Window section reveals
00:49:30potential imperial markings.
00:49:32Opening bid,
00:49:33one million.
00:49:34Minimum raise,
00:49:35100,000.
00:49:371.1 million.
00:49:391.2 million.
00:49:411.3 million.
00:49:431.4 million.
00:49:452 million.
00:49:47Charles is determined.
00:49:49If he wants it,
00:49:50this badly,
00:49:51it must be the real one.
00:49:542.1 million.
00:49:56Must you always interfere?
00:49:583 million!
00:50:003.1 million.
00:50:02What's the matter, Charles?
00:50:03Tempt out already?
00:50:0719 million!
00:50:1020 million.
00:50:12Let that be an end to it.
00:50:14Don't think I don't know
00:50:15your family's wealth, Charles.
00:50:17I know 19 million
00:50:19is your ceiling.
00:50:2020 million going once,
00:50:2220 million going twice.
00:50:27Are you bidding, sir?
00:50:29No.
00:50:29Sorry.
00:50:30Just stretching.
00:50:3120 million third.
00:50:34Sold
00:50:35to Mr. Joseph Quinn.
00:50:37Goddamn Joseph.
00:50:38Looks like Dual Tech
00:50:40is going to take
00:50:41number one spot
00:50:42now that we've acquired
00:50:44that.
00:50:46Once Joseph has
00:50:47that stone car,
00:50:48it'll be priceless.
00:50:50We have to secure
00:50:51the second lot now
00:50:52if we even have a chance
00:50:53of competing
00:50:53with Joseph's company.
00:50:55Lot two.
00:50:56Uncut diamond
00:50:57with ice grade clarity.
00:50:58Opening bid,
00:50:591 million.
00:51:00Minimum raise,
00:51:01100,000.
00:51:0315 million.
00:51:05Friends,
00:51:06I would consider it
00:51:07a courtesy
00:51:07if you allow me
00:51:08to acquire this piece.
00:51:11And I will always
00:51:12remember your courtesy.
00:51:15You're out of your league,
00:51:15Charles.
00:51:1620 million.
00:51:18Match that if you can.
00:51:20This isn't over, Joseph.
00:51:2420 million once,
00:51:26twice,
00:51:28sold.
00:51:30Again,
00:51:31to Mr. Quinn.
00:51:32Charles Waldorf.
00:51:34Poor fool.
00:51:35Never stood a chance.
00:51:37Lot three.
00:51:38Linear ice grade veining.
00:51:40Opening bid,
00:51:40500,000.
00:51:42Minimum raise,
00:51:4330,000.
00:51:44We're leaving empty-handed.
00:51:46Our store's inventory
00:51:47is going to be empty.
00:51:49It's all right.
00:51:49Even a modest piece
00:51:50is better than nothing.
00:51:52600,000.
00:51:54650,000.
00:51:56700,000.
00:51:58That stone
00:51:59is worthless.
00:52:01I inspected it myself.
00:52:04The vein is fractured
00:52:06and discontinuous.
00:52:07A flawed stone?
00:52:10Glad I didn't bend.
00:52:11Joseph knows diamonds
00:52:13better than anyone.
00:52:14No point buying
00:52:15a plot, Judas.
00:52:18700,000 going once,
00:52:20twice,
00:52:21sold to Miss Lydia.
00:52:24You played yourself,
00:52:27Joseph.
00:52:28That stone is worthless,
00:52:29I tell you.
00:52:31Thanks to your
00:52:32assistance and idiocy,
00:52:35we acquired what we wanted.
00:52:39Thanks to your
00:52:40assistance and idiocy,
00:52:42we acquired what we wanted.
00:52:44That
00:52:44is scrap metal.
00:52:47You know,
00:52:48you'd be better off
00:52:49buying a piece of jewelry
00:52:50at a carnival.
00:52:52Since you auctioned the stones,
00:52:53I'm assuming that
00:52:54you facilitate cutting, too?
00:52:56We do, sir.
00:52:57I can do that for you now
00:52:58if you prefer.
00:52:59Yeah, please do.
00:53:03Oh my God,
00:53:04it's so large.
00:53:05That glory?
00:53:06It has to be
00:53:07ice grade, at least.
00:53:08Congratulations, Charles.
00:53:09What a find.
00:53:11I saw him whispering
00:53:13behind his ear
00:53:14before the bidding.
00:53:15I think he
00:53:16must be the strategist.
00:53:18Charles,
00:53:19would you consider
00:53:19selling it?
00:53:21We're prepared
00:53:21to offer you
00:53:22$100 million
00:53:23to repurchase it.
00:53:24No, no, no.
00:53:25No, no, no.
00:53:26Don't make a fuss.
00:53:28If that rubbish stone
00:53:29yielded that diamond,
00:53:32mine's got to be
00:53:33worth a lot more.
00:53:34Cut mine open.
00:53:35Mr. Quinn,
00:53:40regarding your two stones,
00:53:42the yield,
00:53:42shall we say.
00:53:44Well,
00:53:45get to it.
00:53:46How much are they worth?
00:53:47Well, perhaps
00:53:48as a courtesy,
00:53:50we could offer you
00:53:50$20,000.
00:53:53$20,000?
00:53:55Maybe.
00:53:57I need a doctor.
00:53:59You guaranteed
00:54:01those stones
00:54:02would yield
00:54:03high-grade diamonds.
00:54:04The $40 million
00:54:06we spent
00:54:06was our entire
00:54:07operational capital.
00:54:09The board
00:54:10will hold you
00:54:11responsible.
00:54:12We'll see you
00:54:13removed by tomorrow.
00:54:15You'll repay
00:54:16every cent,
00:54:17even if it
00:54:18bankrupts you
00:54:19personally.
00:54:22Well, Joseph,
00:54:23I'm guessing
00:54:24you'd admit
00:54:25that I do know
00:54:25how to evaluate
00:54:26stones now.
00:54:27Sir,
00:54:29what would it take
00:54:30to bring you
00:54:31on board
00:54:31as our lead
00:54:32authenticator?
00:54:33mean your price.
00:54:35$10 million a year?
00:54:36Not interested.
00:54:38Thanks.
00:54:44You did it.
00:54:45Hey,
00:54:46the look on
00:54:47Joseph's face
00:54:48when he realized
00:54:48he was on a
00:54:49fucking sinking ship.
00:54:51I would have
00:54:51paid extra
00:54:52for that shit.
00:54:53Oh my God.
00:54:54You know,
00:54:55there's somebody
00:54:55I want to introduce
00:54:56you to.
00:54:56Thanks,
00:54:57but I'm really
00:54:58not looking
00:54:59to work for...
00:54:59Just trust me.
00:55:01His name's
00:55:01Maximus Tyson.
00:55:02He's the true
00:55:03power in L.A.
00:55:04He's the head
00:55:04of the Pacific Syndicate.
00:55:06One word
00:55:06out of his mouth
00:55:07and the city
00:55:08just shifts.
00:55:10You meet him
00:55:11and you never
00:55:11have to fear
00:55:12anyone again.
00:55:13He's a good person
00:55:14to have in your
00:55:14back pocket.
00:55:15Trust me.
00:55:20Mr. Tyson,
00:55:21this is Ethan Cole,
00:55:22the young man
00:55:23that saved
00:55:23my grandson.
00:55:26You're the famous
00:55:27Ethan I've been
00:55:28hearing about.
00:55:30Well,
00:55:30if you need
00:55:31anything in the city,
00:55:32anything at all,
00:55:34just give me a call.
00:55:36Father,
00:55:37you should be resting.
00:55:38The doctor said
00:55:39you should be
00:55:40in bed at six.
00:55:41Quiet,
00:55:41hurry.
00:55:42I am never
00:55:43too sick
00:55:44to discuss business.
00:55:45Well,
00:55:46Mr. Tyson,
00:55:47sir,
00:55:48with all due respect,
00:55:49you really should
00:55:50prioritize your health
00:55:51above everything
00:55:52else right now.
00:55:52Be careful
00:55:53what you say
00:55:54or your next
00:55:55words may be
00:55:56your last.
00:55:57If you kill me,
00:55:58you kill the only
00:55:58man who can help
00:55:59your father.
00:56:00Is that a threat?
00:56:02Explain yourself
00:56:03right now.
00:56:04Ethan,
00:56:05this isn't part
00:56:06of the plan.
00:56:07Mr. Tyson,
00:56:08you've been experiencing
00:56:09progressive fatigue
00:56:10and unexplained
00:56:11loss of consciousness.
00:56:12Am I wrong?
00:56:13How could you
00:56:14know that?
00:56:15He could be a spy.
00:56:16He could know
00:56:17about your fatigue
00:56:17with surveillance.
00:56:19Well,
00:56:19outside this room,
00:56:20who else knows
00:56:21about the paralysis?
00:56:22All being
00:56:24only Uri and I.
00:56:27Not even the
00:56:28syndicate leadership
00:56:29knows.
00:56:31Ethan,
00:56:32Ethan,
00:56:33can you really
00:56:33help me?
00:56:34He could see you
00:56:38sufierno's life.
00:56:45Man,
00:56:46he's not
00:56:46Ingalls
00:56:56Are you just going to stand there?
00:56:58Or are you going to help my father?
00:57:00It's your locket.
00:57:17How dare you!
00:57:19That was a medieval heirloom from Uncle Roland.
00:57:21Why?
00:57:22It was irreplaceable!
00:57:24Why?
00:57:25Father.
00:57:26It's like I stepped in the warmth of the sun.
00:57:33Your legs, they're working.
00:57:37My God, after all these years, I didn't think this was possible.
00:57:42Ethan, Ethan, you're giving me back my life.
00:57:47I'm indebted to you forever.
00:57:49Mr. Tyson, you really should sit.
00:57:51You shouldn't stress yourself out right now.
00:57:53How could the locket have caused all this?
00:57:57It was a soul snatcher.
00:57:58An ancient artifact.
00:58:01Draining his life force.
00:58:02That's why his condition seemed untraceable.
00:58:05And Uncle Roland gave it to you.
00:58:08Someone's going impatient in my position.
00:58:11Oh, it is time for a reorganization of the Pacific Syndicate.
00:58:17Well, you've diagnosed my father so easily.
00:58:23How about me?
00:58:26Boys have been all over the place.
00:58:29You've been irritable lately.
00:58:31Night sweats, mood swings.
00:58:33How did you know?
00:58:34I thought it was going to be all because of my boxing training.
00:58:40Maybe you need a boyfriend.
00:58:44How do you know I don't already have a boyfriend?
00:58:48Come on, quiet, child.
00:58:49You're getting on my damn nerves.
00:58:51You see what I mean?
00:58:53Mr. Tyson, there is one favor I would like to ask you for.
00:58:57Talk to me.
00:58:58Anything.
00:58:59I want to see the Chrome World group destroyed in three days.
00:59:04He did say anything.
00:59:14We'll transfer agreement, Mr. Cole.
00:59:16One fine, the hotel is yours.
00:59:18It's just, it's too much.
00:59:19Dad insists.
00:59:20The hotel is nothing after everything you've given him.
00:59:23Please.
00:59:24Fine.
00:59:24Another hotel?
00:59:26I can't believe it.
00:59:27I should pinch myself.
00:59:34Oh my God, I thought you were a homeless person.
00:59:37We invited you to our wedding.
00:59:38We did not say you could come to one of my properties.
00:59:41Have you ever even heard of a hotel like this?
00:59:44This is called a five-star hotel.
00:59:47I know you could only afford cheap motels before.
00:59:50I actually have business here.
00:59:51Business?
00:59:54What business could you possibly have here?
00:59:57Wouldn't you like to know?
00:59:59Alright, bro.
01:00:00Security!
01:00:02Get this clown out of here.
01:00:05Sir Cole, please.
01:00:08Come in.
01:00:11Feels good getting slapped.
01:00:13Doesn't it?
01:00:18How did they know his name?
01:00:21Don't worry.
01:00:22I'll look into it.
01:00:23We are going to humiliate him properly at our wedding ceremony, yeah?
01:00:27Yay!
01:00:31Marrying Lance is the happiest moment of my life.
01:00:34And there's one person I really want to thank.
01:00:37My ex-husband, Ethan.
01:00:40Without having the experience of dating such a poor, cheap, and honestly, not that cute kind of man,
01:00:46I wouldn't understand what real love is.
01:00:49My pleasure.
01:00:50Oh, and I brought you a wedding gift, okay?
01:00:52Don't forget.
01:00:52We're a fucking loser.
01:00:54Uh, honey?
01:00:55Grandma group stock just plummeted 90%.
01:00:58That's impossible.
01:00:59Some of the tech.
01:01:00Now, who the hell would be a...
01:01:01How's that for a wedding gift?
01:01:04Yeah, like, you could do that.
01:01:06You probably had to take out a loan just to afford an Uber to get here.
01:01:10This boy's delusional.
01:01:11Only Maximus Tyson could do that.
01:01:13Yeah, exactly.
01:01:15Tyson's the only man in L.A. with that kind of power.
01:01:17Our warehouses, all 18 of them are on fire.
01:01:20We've lost everything.
01:01:24We have maximum security on all those sites.
01:01:26How could they burn?
01:01:27I just saw the footage.
01:01:28Someone infiltrated.
01:01:29If the goods are gone, we'll breach every contract we've signed.
01:01:32They'll be ruined.
01:01:33I told you.
01:01:35This will be a night you never forget.
01:01:38Ethan, be real, man.
01:01:40There's no way this will...
01:01:42There's no way.
01:01:43Come on, Ethan.
01:01:44Tell them you had nothing to do with this.
01:01:45Every disaster hitting at once looks like he had a reason.
01:01:49The main office just got seized by Mr. Tyson's team.
01:01:53We really should go.
01:01:54So Cromwell pissed off Mr. Tyson.
01:01:57That all makes sense now.
01:01:58Yeah, this Ethan guy is just fucking bloody.
01:02:00Next you'll say Tyson works for you.
01:02:03What could we have done to offend Mr. Tyson?
01:02:06He did.
01:02:08But he did offend Ethan, and that is even worse.
01:02:11Looks like you were right, Amber.
01:02:15The way I do work for Ethan.
01:02:18Mr. Cole.
01:02:19Are you satisfied with the downfall, Cromwell?
01:02:22Sir, I'm going to be happy.
01:02:25My pleasure.
01:02:27Who?
01:02:28Who the hell are you?
01:02:30Please, sir.
01:02:31We didn't know who you were.
01:02:33Just spare my family.
01:02:34Don't pay.
01:02:36Beg him.
01:02:41You fool!
01:02:43Get down on your knees and apologize.
01:02:45Oh, Ethan.
01:02:46I mean Mr. Cole.
01:02:47Forgive us, please.
01:02:48I'm begging you.
01:02:49Ethan, would you really do this to me?
01:02:51I did love you.
01:02:52Why would you hurt me now?
01:02:53You stupid money beggar.
01:02:55This is all your fault.
01:02:57You.
01:02:58You destroyed my family.
01:03:00I don't ever want to see your face again.
01:03:04We're done.
01:03:07So as I walk out that door.
01:03:08Is that enough for you, Mr. Cole?
01:03:12Lance, you should really be careful who you mock.
01:03:15You never know who they might become one day.
01:03:16Ethan, baby, let's just start over.
01:03:18I love you, baby, please.
01:03:20We can make this work.
01:03:21Happy wedding day.
01:03:23Beautiful, beautiful ceremony.
01:03:25Thanks for having me.
01:03:30I hear the Cromwells have fallen.
01:03:32How does it feel?
01:03:33Your father's name is justified.
01:03:36Who?
01:03:38What's this?
01:03:39It's just some stocks I'm buying.
01:03:42Damn it.
01:03:43You know what?
01:03:43I call myself the syndicate stock goddess, yet I'm losing like hell.
01:03:47Let's see if my powers work on stocks, too.
01:03:52Bingo.
01:03:52I can see a month ahead.
01:03:54I'd say buy Helen Group, Inc. now.
01:03:56And then sell it after seven trading days when it peaks.
01:03:58But just don't get greedy, okay?
01:04:01Are you serious?
01:04:01Do you know anything about trading stocks?
01:04:04I mean, Helen Group is down 4% from last week.
01:04:06Well, to your call.
01:04:08But you know what I'm capable of.
01:04:09Screw it.
01:04:11But this takes again, Ethan Cole.
01:04:12I'm holding you personally accountable.
01:04:14That's fine.
01:04:18Let's test this.
01:04:19I'll invest most of my cash, too.
01:04:21Seven days and then we'll know.
01:04:25Hello?
01:04:25Ethan, come get me.
01:04:27I miss you.
01:04:27Are you drunk?
01:04:28The client kept pushing drinks.
01:04:30That pig definitely had ulterior motives.
01:04:33But don't worry.
01:04:34I can handle it.
01:04:35Your wife knows her limits.
01:04:37Stay put.
01:04:38All right, I'm on my way.
01:04:43Another toast, President Shaw.
01:04:45I found you this partnership immensely.
01:04:48Drink.
01:04:49Let's celebrate.
01:04:50Mr. Wayne, I really shouldn't have another.
01:04:52Then perhaps we should reconsider the procurement contract.
01:04:59There seems to be issues.
01:05:02If I have this last change, you will sign the billion dollar offer?
01:05:07That'll be enough profit to carry Shaw Group for two years.
01:05:10The choice is yours.
01:05:13Yes, ma'am.
01:05:14Once it hits your system, you'll be mine tonight.
01:05:17I've been waiting so long for this.
01:05:22Put it down, Vanessa.
01:05:28Ethan?
01:05:29You're here.
01:05:30Who the hell is this?
01:05:31Come on.
01:05:32Come on, let's go.
01:05:33Mr. Wayne, allow me to introduce you to my fiancé, Mr. Ethan.
01:05:38I've heard about you.
01:05:39The live-in fiancé.
01:05:41Writing on Shaw Group's coattails.
01:05:43That's so cute.
01:05:44There, it's drunk.
01:05:52So the deal still stands.
01:05:54You think you're qualified to drink for President Shaw?
01:05:57With all due respect, Vanessa, you have looks, figure, status.
01:06:02Why settle for this trash?
01:06:07Boss, I just saw Mr. Cole into the VIP room.
01:06:10Which Mr. Cole?
01:06:11Ethan Cole, they say you saved Mr. Tyson's life.
01:06:14Oh, it's him.
01:06:15My branch has specifically ordered us to treat him with utmost respect.
01:06:18Boss, should we go toast, Mr. Cole?
01:06:20I'll do it myself.
01:06:22Prepare a bottle of Romani Cunti.
01:06:24Right away, sir.
01:06:27Mr. Wayne, you can make my life as difficult as you want, but do not insult.
01:06:33Ethan, I don't need this deal.
01:06:35That way.
01:06:37Come with me.
01:06:38You won't regret it.
01:06:39So this deal's important.
01:06:44Not really, not that important.
01:06:45It's $1 million, the equivalent of Shaw Group's profit for two years.
01:06:49If I recall correctly, Vanessa, if Shaw Group does not close this deal, they're likely to go bankrupt.
01:06:56Right?
01:06:58Mr. Grant.
01:06:59I wanted to introduce myself to Mr. Romani Cunti.
01:07:03That's worth several hundred thousand dollars.
01:07:05You have a good eye, sir.
01:07:06But I was wanting to introduce myself to Mr. Cunti.
01:07:08I'm so honored that you would hand deliver this bottle of wine to me.
01:07:12As you know, my company values your participation in the syndicate.
01:07:15It's not for you.
01:07:18It's for Mr. Cole here.
01:07:22Pleasure, sir.
01:07:27You've got to be kidding me.
01:07:28Why would you want to talk to him?
01:07:31Ethan, I need to use the restroom.
01:07:33Mr. Wayne, I really hope you'll be considered it.
01:07:35Let me show you.
01:07:36Mr. Wayne, I'm afraid you're making a fool out of yourself here.
01:07:44Like Mr. Grant cares who you are.
01:07:47He's obviously confused.
01:07:51Gentlemen, I've come to propose a toast.
01:07:54Mr. Grant, it is I who should propose a toast to you.
01:07:58Mr. Cole, my apologies for not knowing you're dining with us today.
01:08:02I hope you can forgive us for our poor service.
01:08:04What? Even Zach Grant shows in such respect?
01:08:07Just who is Ethan?
01:08:08He can't be just a simple live-in son-in-law.
01:08:11Mr. Grant, the Pacific Syndicate operations are quite extensive, yeah?
01:08:15Yes, we report to the Valley Branch,
01:08:17the head of which is Miss Yuri Paisons.
01:08:18Yuri?
01:08:19I hadn't realized she'd become so accomplished
01:08:21leading an entire branch by herself.
01:08:23Damn, Ethan is actually someone important in the Pacific Syndicate?
01:08:29Mr. Wayne, I'm feeling unwell.
01:08:31You're sweating profusely.
01:08:32Mr. Cole, please, I look down on you when I shouldn't have.
01:08:43Please, I beg your forgiveness.
01:08:45So, do I qualify to speak with you now, Mr. Wayne?
01:08:49Yes, of course you qualify. You more than qualify.
01:08:52Whatever you need.
01:08:56How about that contract?
01:08:57We'll sign it tomorrow morning.
01:08:59I will personally deliver it.
01:09:01Sign the contract and transfer the payment.
01:09:04Good, yes.
01:09:05That's exactly what I want to hear.
01:09:09Damn it, I forgot about the drugged wine,
01:09:10but I can't mention it now.
01:09:11If Mr. Cole finds out I tried to drug them,
01:09:13you'll have me killed.
01:09:14Are they leaving?
01:09:24Yeah.
01:09:25You decided you wanted to head out early.
01:09:27Great.
01:09:28Another deal gone.
01:09:32That's okay.
01:09:33I'll find another partner.
01:09:35I would hate to think that I can't survive
01:09:37without Harmony Pharmaceuticals.
01:09:39It's fine.
01:09:41I took care of everything.
01:09:42Ethan, I know you're just trying to make me feel better,
01:09:45but you really don't have to do things like that.
01:09:48And I know Mr. Walder holds you in high regard,
01:09:51but Harmony Pharmaceutical,
01:09:53their influence goes beyond his and yours.
01:09:59Fine, if she doesn't believe me now,
01:10:01Anthony will personally deliver the contract
01:10:02to Shaw Group tomorrow.
01:10:04That'll be her surprise.
01:10:05Come on, I'll take you home.
01:10:12No, no, I can't go back.
01:10:14Grandpa hates me drinking.
01:10:17Could you walk me to a room?
01:10:20Yeah.
01:10:23Father, I had a detective investigate.
01:10:26Ethan, he's not even Vanessa's fiance.
01:10:29She's been playing us all.
01:10:31How dare she deceive me.
01:10:33I'll bet you anything.
01:10:34He just got lucky.
01:10:35Saw my antique store.
01:10:37Made a couple hundred thousand dollars.
01:10:39He doesn't have a company.
01:10:40No real assets.
01:10:41He's unestablished.
01:10:43I'll bet you anything,
01:10:45he's deliberately targeting Vanessa.
01:10:47Why, he wants to...
01:10:49Get close to Vanessa,
01:10:50then take over the Shaw family empire.
01:10:54Grandpa,
01:10:55you spent your whole life building this company.
01:10:58Tell me you're not going to let
01:10:59some outsider take it from us.
01:11:01Mike,
01:11:03you're back in the family.
01:11:06Starting tomorrow,
01:11:07you'll join the company
01:11:07as deputy CEO.
01:11:10We have to put a stop to this.
01:11:12Exactly.
01:11:13Bye-bye, Vanessa.
01:11:15Hey, you okay?
01:11:27Yeah, I'm good.
01:11:28You all right?
01:11:30Yeah.
01:11:31I'm good.
01:11:36I...
01:11:37I wanted this.
01:11:39Me too.
01:11:39Me too.
01:11:47Mr. Wayne,
01:11:48from Harmony Pharmaceutical.
01:11:51It's an honor to meet you.
01:11:53And you are?
01:11:53Mike.
01:11:54Any business you have,
01:11:55you can discuss it with me.
01:11:57I see.
01:11:58So they're all part of the same family.
01:12:00Signing with this Mike
01:12:01should accomplish the same thing.
01:12:03So,
01:12:03what brought you in today?
01:12:04I came to deliver a signed contract
01:12:06for the billion dollar deal
01:12:07between Harmony Pharmaceuticals
01:12:09and the Shaw Group.
01:12:10What?
01:12:11The billion dollar deal?
01:12:13Wasn't Vanessa handling this?
01:12:15Seems she failed to close it,
01:12:16and now the contract
01:12:17just walks in my door.
01:12:19Is there something wrong,
01:12:20Mr. Shaw?
01:12:21No, no,
01:12:22not at all.
01:12:22You know what?
01:12:23Let's sign this right now.
01:12:24You need a pen?
01:12:25Yeah.
01:12:30Put it right there.
01:12:31Put it right there.
01:12:34You got it.
01:12:40This is an incredible one.
01:12:42Helen Group has just tripled
01:12:43in one day.
01:12:45My original four million
01:12:46is now with over ten million.
01:12:47This just proves
01:12:48my ability to predict stops.
01:12:50Now I can really get to work.
01:12:52White sand mine,
01:12:53Increscent Pictures,
01:12:54Dragon Creek Holdings,
01:12:57the next three ten-baggers.
01:12:59But with my current capital,
01:13:00even a ten-fold return
01:13:02wouldn't be enough.
01:13:02Ethan, you're a god.
01:13:09I finally hit the big time.
01:13:11From now on,
01:13:12I'll be running Wall Street.
01:13:13I'll take any investment tips
01:13:15from you.
01:13:15That'd be great.
01:13:16Uh, but don't forget
01:13:18what I told you, all right?
01:13:19You gotta sell today.
01:13:20The crash is coming.
01:13:21Don't worry,
01:13:21I'm following your every word.
01:13:23You're my money god.
01:13:25Guess how much I made?
01:13:27One million.
01:13:28Thanks, Baker.
01:13:29I made 900 million.
01:13:32How did you get
01:13:32that much capital?
01:13:33I'll play you later.
01:13:35See you tonight.
01:13:38Port this month's earnings.
01:13:40Uh, Hollywood had a
01:13:42complication.
01:13:4446 million.
01:13:45Downtown branch,
01:13:4760 million.
01:13:48Don't tell me.
01:13:53Valley branch was last again.
01:13:55Well,
01:13:56we're used to it right now.
01:13:58So, Nice,
01:13:58how much did you lose this time?
01:14:01Do we have to
01:14:02cover you again?
01:14:06You're an excellent combat.
01:14:09Not business.
01:14:11Six straight months of losses,
01:14:12you'll lose all authority
01:14:14to lead Valley branch.
01:14:15Valley branch netted
01:14:17900 million this month.
01:14:23They're joking, huh?
01:14:25That's impossible.
01:14:28See for yourself.
01:14:331,000 million.
01:14:35900 million.
01:14:38It's real.
01:14:41How?
01:14:41Ethan.
01:14:43I followed all his
01:14:44stock trading tips
01:14:45with our monthly funds
01:14:47and we tripled
01:14:49our money.
01:14:50A lucky coincidence.
01:14:52Can he do it again?
01:14:54Every exit and entry point
01:14:55was timed perfectly.
01:14:57Okay, this was no luck.
01:14:59Who is this Ethan?
01:15:02The one Mr. Tiger mentioned.
01:15:04The medical genius,
01:15:06now a stock market
01:15:07prodigy as well.
01:15:09This information?
01:15:10We're going to leave this room.
01:15:13He's bringing him here
01:15:13right now.
01:15:18Ethan,
01:15:19the Pacific Syndicate
01:15:20has decided to entrust
01:15:21all of our liquid capital
01:15:22into your management.
01:15:24It will be receiving
01:15:2530% of the profits.
01:15:27Are you certain
01:15:28you can trust me with it?
01:15:29I have complete faith
01:15:30in your character
01:15:31and your ability.
01:15:33If that's not enough,
01:15:34we'll assign Yuri
01:15:35as your secretary
01:15:36to help you manage
01:15:37your company
01:15:37and your assets.
01:15:38Sir, I give you my word.
01:15:41I'll handle these funds
01:15:42as if they were my own.
01:15:44Leave me here.
01:15:45You also have real estate
01:15:47properties you can leverage.
01:15:48Yeah.
01:15:49And Dad is friends
01:15:50with the president
01:15:50of the LA Commercial Bank.
01:15:52He can get you
01:15:53a low interest loan
01:15:53and easily secure you
01:15:54$500 million.
01:15:55And with $500 million
01:15:57in capital,
01:15:58if handled properly,
01:16:00we could potentially
01:16:01grow to $5 billion
01:16:02just this round.
01:16:03Well, Ethan,
01:16:04funds of this size
01:16:05and this scale
01:16:07is a good idea
01:16:08for you to establish
01:16:09your own company.
01:16:10I can help with this.
01:16:16I'm going to take this
01:16:17real quick, sir.
01:16:17All right.
01:16:17Hey, Vanessa,
01:16:23I've been calling you.
01:16:24Hey, babe.
01:16:25Can you come to the Shaw
01:16:26Family Celebration Banquet
01:16:28this weekend?
01:16:29Yeah, yeah, of course.
01:16:30Mike secured
01:16:31the Harmony Pharmaceuticals
01:16:32contract.
01:16:33Grandfather is considering
01:16:35having the first branch
01:16:36inherit the Shaw legacy.
01:16:38He's replacing me
01:16:39with Mike.
01:16:40Don't even worry about it.
01:16:41Okay, we'll figure it out together.
01:16:42All right.
01:16:44I'll see you
01:16:45at the banquet.
01:16:52I owe you
01:16:52for this place, Yuri.
01:16:54It's the least I could do.
01:16:56And the $2.5 billion
01:16:57is already an allocated
01:16:58funds for the future
01:17:00contracts that you specified.
01:17:01Great work.
01:17:03I can see a business empire
01:17:04in the brewing.
01:17:05Now that everything is set,
01:17:07I need to go save
01:17:09my future wife.
01:17:10It's going to be a great show.
01:17:12To the $1 billion deal.
01:17:15And to many more
01:17:16to come in the future.
01:17:19With that secured,
01:17:20Shaw Group was set for years.
01:17:23Well, a certain somebody
01:17:24couldn't secure a deal
01:17:26in three months.
01:17:27I did this
01:17:28in only two days.
01:17:30And who are you
01:17:31implying that about, Mike?
01:17:34Well, well, well,
01:17:35look who it is.
01:17:37It's the former CEO
01:17:38who couldn't secure a deal
01:17:40in three months.
01:17:41As for you,
01:17:43I've tolerated you long enough.
01:17:45Effective immediately,
01:17:46you're hereby terminated
01:17:47from the Shaw Group.
01:17:48Thank you so much
01:17:49for all your hard work, Yuri.
01:17:52Um, excuse me.
01:17:54No, Mike.
01:17:55Mike,
01:17:56do you actually think
01:17:57that you secure that contract
01:17:59for your own merit?
01:18:01Of course I did.
01:18:02Who else?
01:18:02Vanessa and I made Anthony
01:18:04from Harmony Pharmaceuticals
01:18:05cooperate.
01:18:06Without us,
01:18:07you wouldn't have even
01:18:07glanced your way.
01:18:08What a joke.
01:18:10Anthony gave me
01:18:11that contract himself.
01:18:14Like it or not,
01:18:15I'm a hero.
01:18:17Ethan,
01:18:18don't think knowing
01:18:19a few people
01:18:20makes you important.
01:18:21Status comes from
01:18:22capability
01:18:23and wealth.
01:18:25Don't forget
01:18:26who you are.
01:18:28Nothing.
01:18:28Friends,
01:18:34thank you for helping us
01:18:36celebrate
01:18:36our family's success tonight.
01:18:39I'd like to propose
01:18:40a toast to
01:18:41Mike,
01:18:42my dear grandson
01:18:43who saved
01:18:45the company.
01:18:46Oh,
01:18:46Grandma.
01:18:48No, no, no.
01:18:48To you.
01:18:50Cheers.
01:18:51Cheers.
01:18:53This seems like
01:18:54the perfect moment
01:18:55for an important announcement.
01:18:56My eldest grandson,
01:18:59Mike,
01:19:00who has proven
01:19:01his capabilities
01:19:02beyond all doubt.
01:19:04Effective immediately,
01:19:05I appoint him
01:19:07CEO of the Shaw Group.
01:19:10Cheers,
01:19:11big Mike.
01:19:12Come on.
01:19:13You're about dead?
01:19:17Father,
01:19:18can we have him arrested?
01:19:19I think technically
01:19:20he's trespassing.
01:19:24No, no,
01:19:25I'm dead.
01:19:25Don't worry.
01:19:26I got this.
01:19:27Hey,
01:19:27Ethan,
01:19:28what's the matter,
01:19:29buddy?
01:19:30Are you afraid
01:19:30you're going to lose
01:19:31your meal ticket
01:19:32because Vanessa's
01:19:33not CEO anymore?
01:19:34I may not be family,
01:19:36but I negotiated
01:19:37that billion-dollar contract,
01:19:38so I have every right
01:19:39to speak on it.
01:19:40Bullshit.
01:19:41Prove it.
01:19:42One more word
01:19:43and I'll have security
01:19:44throw you out.
01:19:47Mr. Wayne.
01:19:48I can confirm
01:19:55Ethan and Vanessa
01:19:56secured that contract.
01:19:58My apologies,
01:19:59Mr. Cole.
01:19:59I assumed all Shaw's
01:20:00were equal.
01:20:01I didn't realize
01:20:02I was letting Mike
01:20:02take the credit.
01:20:03How can the Shaw's
01:20:05expect the public
01:20:06to trust them anymore?
01:20:07Hey!
01:20:08You shut the fuck up,
01:20:09you fucking parasite!
01:20:10Mr. Wayne,
01:20:11okay,
01:20:11the contract
01:20:13was already signed.
01:20:14I mean,
01:20:14there's no backing out.
01:20:17There would be
01:20:17penalties!
01:20:18Penalties!
01:20:20Technically, yes.
01:20:21Yes,
01:20:22of course,
01:20:22of course,
01:20:23there would be
01:20:23penalties.
01:20:25There would be
01:20:25you.
01:20:27You see, Grandpa?
01:20:28This was Ethan.
01:20:30This was his plan
01:20:31all along.
01:20:31He's been playing,
01:20:32Vanessa,
01:20:33because he wants
01:20:33to get her share
01:20:34of the company.
01:20:35That's what this
01:20:36is all about.
01:20:38Vanessa,
01:20:39I'm sorry.
01:20:41Mike earned
01:20:41his place.
01:20:42I want him
01:20:43to run the
01:20:44family business.
01:20:45Great.
01:20:46Where was the
01:20:47sentiment when you
01:20:48wanted me to
01:20:48save the company?
01:20:49We both know
01:20:51Mike would run
01:20:51it straight into
01:20:52the ground.
01:20:52How dare you
01:20:53speak of your
01:20:54cousin like that?
01:20:55I move we
01:20:56disinherit her.
01:20:58Nothing but trouble.
01:20:59Second.
01:21:02Can you leave?
01:21:03I would rather
01:21:04go broke than
01:21:05spend a single
01:21:06extra second
01:21:07with this
01:21:07godforsaken family.
01:21:09You will take
01:21:10over Shaw Group.
01:21:11Not as CEO,
01:21:12but as president.
01:21:14Delusional.
01:21:15That would require
01:21:16you to outbuy
01:21:17us all.
01:21:18Don't really
01:21:18see that happening.
01:21:21Not exactly.
01:21:23I'm acquiring
01:21:24Shaw Group.
01:21:27The market cap
01:21:29is five
01:21:30billion dollars.
01:21:32Ethan,
01:21:33with more money.
01:21:34We did it.
01:21:43Everything is
01:21:43liquidated?
01:21:44How much?
01:21:45Well, after our
01:21:46original investment,
01:21:47we have 11 billion
01:21:48dollars in our
01:21:49account.
01:21:50Oh my god.
01:21:51That's a 10 billion
01:21:51dollar profit.
01:21:52That's perfect.
01:21:53This means we can
01:21:54acquire Shaw Group.
01:21:55Yeah.
01:21:56And their market cap
01:21:57is locked at five
01:21:57billion.
01:21:58Since Mike took
01:21:59over, they've been
01:22:00plagued with scandal
01:22:01and poor performances.
01:22:02The acquisition
01:22:03should be pretty
01:22:04straightforward.
01:22:05Okay.
01:22:05Okay, mark the
01:22:06arrangements.
01:22:07I want to acquire
01:22:07every possible share
01:22:09of Shaw Group.
