00:00:01Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack.
00:00:06In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in ARK's situation.
00:00:11Don't be up here on drowning. I just drowned you.
00:00:14Don't be up here on drowning. I just drowned you.
00:00:16Don't be up here on drowning. I just drowned you.
00:00:21No, you have to...
00:00:22I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:24You gotta do it now.
00:00:26This isn't some random dip. Whoever's shorting us came prepared.
00:00:29They're tearing us apart. We can't hold the line.
00:00:31We're about to become the laughing stock of Wall Street.
00:00:33No, no, we're not finished.
00:00:36We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:41The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:46Julian, we need you. Again.
00:00:49Shit. Shit.
00:00:53Give me a sec.
00:00:58Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing?
00:01:01Good, good, yeah.
00:01:03I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:10Julian, you saved my ass last time. I owe you.
00:01:13I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:17Great.
00:01:21The stock price is recovering.
00:01:24How is that possible?
00:01:25Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:28Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:31Julian, Damien's assistant called.
00:01:34Called in all hands.
00:01:35All department leads.
00:01:36Conference room in 10 minutes.
00:01:38Chairman's orders.
00:01:39Why will Damien call in the meeting?
00:01:41He despises you.
00:01:43Watch your back.
00:01:44Let's go.
00:01:49Let's go.
00:02:03Let's go.
00:02:12Today, Damien successfully neutralized the short attack against Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:18Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:27Since when does Damien know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:30He must have stole the swing from someone else.
00:02:32Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:35Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:37Anthony pushed back and Damien used this pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:45Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:49Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire.
00:02:52The least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:53Damien.
00:02:56Of course.
00:02:58Questions.
00:03:00I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:08Julian.
00:03:09Our company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:13Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:18This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:22Wait, I'm sorry everyone.
00:03:24I forgot.
00:03:27You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:28My strategies, you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:37Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, we'll start with a question.
00:03:42Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:44And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:46And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:48Doesn't matter.
00:03:49What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:51You can't even name your enemy?
00:03:53Alright, fine.
00:03:54Next question.
00:03:55Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:03:57And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:00Well...
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:06Well...
00:04:06Well...
00:04:06Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:09Alright.
00:04:10So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:13the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight,
00:04:15or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:21Let's be real.
00:04:23You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees for real.
00:04:37You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:42You know what, Clark?
00:04:44You're fucking fired!
00:04:45Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:57You hear that, Dad?
00:04:59I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:03Understood.
00:05:05Now, hearing's not enough.
00:05:06I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:08Now.
00:05:13You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:19You've proven everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:21Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:24Harper's, uh, old friends, good staff, you know?
00:05:29Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:32What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:34Feelings could grow, brat.
00:05:36Our families go way better.
00:05:38Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:40My life, my choice.
00:05:42Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that-
00:05:45Enough!
00:05:46Oh, that's it.
00:05:47You're going to do this.
00:05:48I've already arranged everything.
00:05:50You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:52Go work with Serena.
00:05:55And date her properly, hmm?
00:05:59You'll refuse.
00:06:02Okay.
00:06:03Nurse, Doctor, I'm checking out.
00:06:05My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:06What's the point?
00:06:07Okay.
00:06:07Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:09Okay, all right.
00:06:10I'll go.
00:06:12I know when I pass, okay?
00:06:15For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:18We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:21The Harpers, they're in trouble.
00:06:23We do not abandon our own.
00:06:26Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:29And help them.
00:06:31Please, for me.
00:06:33Fine.
00:06:35I'll do it.
00:06:37I hear you.
00:06:45For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked.
00:06:48Using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:50I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:54I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:06:57And for what?
00:06:58So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:03It's time to come home.
00:07:10You asked for my opinion and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:13So...
00:07:14Pathetic.
00:07:15I said you're fired.
00:07:16Get your shit and get the fuck out of my door.
00:07:18I heard you.
00:07:20I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay and then I'm gone.
00:07:23I said now!
00:07:24Or I'm gonna call security and you're gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:27Suit yourself.
00:07:29Julian, this is Harper Enterprise.
00:07:32Not your family's playground.
00:07:33Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:36You will leave.
00:07:37Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:41Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:43I will not repeat it.
00:07:45And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:47You know what, Serena?
00:07:48Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:56You don't push your luck, Clark.
00:07:58The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:01is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:03And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:06You're fucking nothing.
00:08:08You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:11I mean, even your old Beyoncé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:14So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost
00:08:17before I fucking...
00:08:18What?
00:08:26You're broke.
00:08:28You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:30A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:34We lost your balance.
00:08:36Maybe work on your question.
00:08:37Julian, that is enough.
00:08:39Disrupting proceedings.
00:08:41Assault.
00:08:42Destruction of property.
00:08:43As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:47Effective immediately.
00:08:48Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:51Serena, he broke my watch.
00:08:52The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:54He has to pay for it.
00:08:55Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:56Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:03Fine.
00:09:05I'll pay.
00:09:06Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:08What one hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:09It's a million.
00:09:11A million for that.
00:09:12It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:13It's priceless.
00:09:14A million dollars being generous.
00:09:16You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:18A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:20He does have a point card.
00:09:22You break it, you buy it.
00:09:24That's the rule.
00:09:25Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:32Well, you gonna wire me the money?
00:09:35Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:37And if so, you can crawl out of here,
00:09:40and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:43So what if you're Serena's fiancé?
00:09:47Look at her now.
00:09:48She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:51A million dollars.
00:09:53That's the final offer?
00:09:55What do you mean?
00:10:00Hi.
00:10:00I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room
00:10:03at Harper headquarters.
00:10:13I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room
00:10:17at Harper headquarters.
00:10:21You just called for a million dollars in cash,
00:10:23like a stakeout?
00:10:24What's next?
00:10:25A private army?
00:10:27All right, Julian.
00:10:27The charade ends now.
00:10:28Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:31But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:34We are done.
00:10:36You sure?
00:10:37Whoa, whoa.
00:10:38You heard that, Julian?
00:10:39Your engagement's over.
00:10:40Now get out before I throw you-
00:10:42Get your hands off me!
00:10:46You put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:49You know what?
00:10:50I'm gonna wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:56Enough!
00:11:01Mr. Brooks!
00:11:04That's David Brooks.
00:11:06President of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:07What's a Wall Street titan doing an accomplishment?
00:11:09Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:11It can't be.
00:11:12That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:17Mr. Clark.
00:11:18The one million.
00:11:20As requested.
00:11:41Mr. Brooks.
00:11:45Personally delivering cash?
00:11:46To Julian?
00:11:48Wait, the money is- it's real?
00:11:50Wait.
00:11:50Uh.
00:11:52Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:53I mean.
00:11:54Wait.
00:11:54Who are you?
00:11:57Much appreciated.
00:11:58You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:07Mr. Brooks.
00:12:08Sir.
00:12:08We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:11My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:13I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:18Mr. Clark.
00:12:20Is there anything else you require?
00:12:21My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:24No, thank you.
00:12:24You can go down.
00:12:25Of course.
00:12:33A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:38Unprofessional.
00:12:39I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:42We'll reassess when there's, uh, adult supervision.
00:12:45Yes, sir.
00:12:46Mr. Brooks, I-
00:12:50Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:52Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:54The chairman won't have his head.
00:12:56This is all your fault, alright?
00:12:58You gotta fix this.
00:12:59You call him back here and get that loan reinstated or I swear I'm gonna-
00:13:02You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:05As for us...
00:13:09One million.
00:13:10In full.
00:13:11Which makes this watch...
00:13:16It's mine.
00:13:18You arrogant.
00:13:19Son of a bitch!
00:13:24I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:26I bet you had to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:33But it's all mine now.
00:13:35Yeah, sure.
00:13:36The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:37But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:40That useless piece of junk?
00:13:41How much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:42Oh.
00:13:43I don't know.
00:13:44Maybe about...
00:13:45A hundred million?
00:13:47A hundred million dollars!
00:13:51For a laptop?
00:13:53Have you lost your mind?
00:13:56A hundred million.
00:13:58For a laptop.
00:13:59Julian.
00:14:00The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:03Which your committee is extortion.
00:14:05That's illegal!
00:14:06So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:09By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:12Huh?
00:14:13That's conservative.
00:14:14Enough!
00:14:15Julian.
00:14:17You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:19What?
00:14:19A stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:23A hundred million dollars?
00:14:25I...
00:14:26Dream on.
00:14:27Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:29But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:31What is it, made of gold?
00:14:32Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:36You know what?
00:14:37You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:46Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:48That's Bill Sullivan.
00:14:49SVP for Stellar.
00:14:51Here?
00:14:51You think it's about the three hundred million dollar partnership here?
00:14:54Three hundred million?
00:14:55That's huge for us, Bill.
00:14:56Pocket change for Stellar.
00:14:58Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:00Mr. Sullivan.
00:15:02What an unexpected honor.
00:15:04I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO.
00:15:06What do we owe the...
00:15:07Mr. Clark, the security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:12And the signal originated here.
00:15:14We were concerned for your safety and care immediately.
00:15:16Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:18Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:21Unbelievable.
00:15:22Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:24Yeah, I'm fine. It just took a fall.
00:15:28God.
00:15:29This damage is significant.
00:15:30With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate?
00:15:35This could be thirty million.
00:15:39Thirty million dollars?
00:15:40No, no, no, no.
00:15:41To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:43That's impossible!
00:15:44There's no way!
00:15:45Are you questioning me?
00:15:46No, I just...
00:15:47I'll open your eyes.
00:15:48This is a one-off laptop with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:53You better pray that those data partitions are intact or that compensation will ruin you.
00:15:58I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:01Highly confidential files.
00:16:03High market value.
00:16:05I mean, with our declarations, this is at least seventy million dollars.
00:16:11That's seventy million dollars?!
00:16:12Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:18All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:21Here.
00:16:23Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:27See for yourself.
00:16:36Who carries around a hundred million dollar laptop?!
00:16:43Who exactly are you?
00:16:44You don't get to know.
00:16:46In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:49And there's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs a hundred million dollars!
00:16:53You know what?
00:16:53This is a fucking scam.
00:16:54These two, they're working together.
00:16:56I'm telling you.
00:16:57It's a con!
00:16:57Are you serious?
00:16:59I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:00I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:02I don't fly across the city a scam at nobody like you.
00:17:05Listen, I'm sorry.
00:17:06This Harper, this is the employee you hire.
00:17:10He's a fool.
00:17:11And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:14Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:16Consider it terminated.
00:17:18What?!
00:17:19Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:21Damien is just...
00:17:23He's stressed.
00:17:24He didn't mean...
00:17:25Save it.
00:17:26You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:29And you, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:32My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:35I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:40Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:43He never lost.
00:17:44Damien can't fight this.
00:17:46Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:50He's done for.
00:17:53Sir, may I go down?
00:17:54Please.
00:17:59Please.
00:18:02Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:07Will that suffice?
00:18:08I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:11You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:15Full payment.
00:18:17In my account.
00:18:18Within three days.
00:18:20In that case, we're done here.
00:18:22Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else.
00:18:25I'll do it.
00:18:27Mr. Sullivan, are our partners-
00:18:28Miss Harper.
00:18:29Get your house in order first.
00:18:31Stellar has standards.
00:18:33We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:35That'll be all.
00:18:36Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:37That was funny.
00:18:39Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:40A hundred million on the line and you swoop in the cover for him.
00:18:44You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:49Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business!
00:18:53We don't need someone like you worrying about it!
00:18:56He's right.
00:18:58Julianna, I give you my word.
00:19:00The full amount will be paid within three days.
00:19:02But under one condition.
00:19:03Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:06And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:09Now.
00:19:10You hear that, Julianna?
00:19:12You know, I'll admit it. Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:13But it's not about what you made.
00:19:15It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:16And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:19So get the fuck out!
00:19:21Get the fuck out?
00:19:23One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:28Remind me.
00:19:29Which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:32Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:35He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:39Stop. Stop!
00:19:45This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:49Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:52Funny.
00:19:53Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:55Remind me.
00:19:56Which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:00You.
00:20:11Get the fuck out!
00:20:12Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:15This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:17I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:20Security, remove him.
00:20:25Julian, please.
00:20:26Don't make us get physical.
00:20:28I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:30You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:32Chairman Harper?
00:20:34Brought you in?
00:20:35Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:37Who do you think you are?
00:20:39You think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:41Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:43The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:49Do it.
00:20:52Looks like I don't need that phone call.
00:20:54Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:56Luke, get me the fuck out of here.
00:21:02What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:06Stand down!
00:21:07All of you!
00:21:08You!
00:21:09Out of here!
00:21:09Now!
00:21:10Dad?
00:21:11Grandpa?
00:21:12What are you doing here?
00:21:18Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's going on today.
00:21:23I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:28Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:31Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:35Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:39Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games!
00:21:42How could you possibly?
00:21:44Shut up!
00:21:53How dare you disrespect Julian?
00:21:55Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has, you can't just hit people!
00:21:58I wish we hit him more.
00:22:00Sylvina, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:05We didn't tell you everything because of your ego.
00:22:08And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:09You were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:13But who knew?
00:22:15Sylvina, you've been blind.
00:22:17Julian is-
00:22:18Thomas, you can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:20No real feelings, no need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:24Julian, please understand, all of this is on us.
00:22:28Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harpofen.
00:22:32Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:38Apologize to Julian, now!
00:22:40No!
00:22:41I don't care who you are Julian.
00:22:44To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:49But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:54I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:22:59Serena!
00:22:59Enough!
00:23:00Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:02Let me apologize.
00:23:03Save it.
00:23:05If Serena can't manage an apology herself,
00:23:08then I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:12Issue my order.
00:23:14Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:16Cease every protective measure, effective immediately!
00:23:19Julian, please!
00:23:21Don't!
00:23:21Without you, this place doesn't survive!
00:23:24Look!
00:23:26Whoa!
00:23:27What?
00:23:30What?
00:23:32Oh, I guess you would've just pulled the orders!
00:23:34What do you mean?
00:23:35Hostile takeover!
00:23:36All of my investors pulled out!
00:23:38How can that be?
00:23:43Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:49What?
00:23:49My entire division just stopped!
00:23:51We can't operate like this!
00:23:52A stunning reversal.
00:23:54Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant,
00:23:58leaving the group facing massive losses.
00:24:01Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:05Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:07Why did Harper Enterprise suddenly lose power?
00:24:10What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:13How is that possible?
00:24:16Are you attacking the company?
00:24:17No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you!
00:24:24Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks!
00:24:27Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:29It's Harper!
00:24:30This isn't a race!
00:24:31Our major partners are terminating their contracts!
00:24:34And our own liquidity can't cover the gas!
00:24:37This continues!
00:24:38The stocks will crash straight through the floor!
00:24:41What did you say?
00:24:43Damn it!
00:24:44How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:47Why him?
00:24:48I won't accept this!
00:24:49I won't!
00:24:50Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:55Apologize to Julian!
00:24:57Now!
00:25:01Serena, apologize!
00:25:05Serena...
00:25:15Serena, Serena, do not apologize!
00:25:17Harper Enterprise is worth hundreds of billions of dollars!
00:25:21You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:23Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:28to you!
00:25:29No!
00:25:32It's not your fucking fault!
00:25:33You apologize to Julian right now!
00:25:35Get on your neck!
00:25:37Dad!
00:25:39Damien!
00:25:40Damien!
00:25:40Dad, stop!
00:25:42Damien has only ever stood up for me!
00:25:44He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you treat him like this!
00:25:47Stay out of the way!
00:25:48No!
00:25:50You really gonna go to war with Julian over this snake?!
00:25:54Do you even have any idea who he really is?!
00:25:57Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this!
00:26:00I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me!
00:26:07Serena, that is enough!
00:26:08So wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:11What about this guy?
00:26:12What about him?
00:26:13He hides behind your name to steal other people's work!
00:26:16He throws tea on me in this very room!
00:26:18He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a hundred thousand dollar watch!
00:26:21Don't you think that's bullying?!
00:26:23Oh, I...
00:26:25But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:28Yeah, you're no saint.
00:26:30You're just biased.
00:26:33You know, I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:36I have asked you out 37 times.
00:26:39Yeah, because I thought we should at least get to know each other.
00:26:41Every time I have asked you out, you said,
00:26:43I'm too busy with work.
00:26:45But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:47The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:26:50Listen to him and sing your praises, right?!
00:26:54Who's that?
00:26:56Hell, let me guess.
00:26:57Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:02Just... ignore him.
00:27:03Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:06Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:10I just... I can't stand him.
00:27:12A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:17So what if I did?
00:27:19Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice.
00:27:22We're engaged, not married.
00:27:24I can see whoever I want.
00:27:27Serena, shut up!
00:27:29No, I am not done!
00:27:31Damien has worked himself to the bone!
00:27:34He is driven and disciplined,
00:27:36and when Harper first went public, he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:40If you had even half his talent, Julian,
00:27:43maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:46But you don't.
00:27:50Damien was a key reason you made it.
00:27:51That's your story, right?
00:27:53What is so funny?
00:27:54I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:27:58Do you know why, for the past six months,
00:28:00all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:03Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:06Why every time that you wanted a loan,
00:28:08the banks rolled out a special fast track for you.
00:28:10Because Damien is brilliant!
00:28:12Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way!
00:28:15Damien?
00:28:16Brilliant?
00:28:17That was Julian!
00:28:19Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together!
00:28:24Serena!
00:28:25No, that is impossible.
00:28:28I don't believe it!
00:28:38Hey.
00:28:39Hi's up Serena.
00:28:40In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections and cleared a path for you.
00:28:45Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange.
00:28:47And you know, I've made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:50That's Iron Gate, North Bridge, and even Silver Line.
00:28:53Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:55They've all been backing us behind the scenes?
00:28:57No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:00Julian is the one with this kind of network.
00:29:02Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this.
00:29:05That's a death wish!
00:29:09No, no, no.
00:29:10It's not true, huh?
00:29:11Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me and my hard work and my connections!
00:29:16Shit!
00:29:16You arrogant fool!
00:29:19Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:28Alright, that's enough.
00:29:31I finally got the all clear from my grandfather.
00:29:32I didn't go home.
00:29:34So as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:37Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:40But the engagement...
00:29:42Let him go.
00:29:42I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:49Without my connections and my network, Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:53And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:29:57Wait, what?
00:29:59What?
00:30:01Prepare yourselves.
00:30:03Julian!
00:30:03Julian!
00:30:04Julian!
00:30:08Serena!
00:30:09You silly, foolish, foolish girl!
00:30:12Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:16With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:19Serena's right.
00:30:20Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper, I'm going to stand by Serena's side and I'm going to give her everything that I've
00:30:25got.
00:30:26Crap.
00:30:27I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all!
00:30:30Dad, that is enough!
00:30:32Dad?
00:30:33Grandpa?
00:30:34I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:37But I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:40And so will I.
00:30:43I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:30:47It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:51This meeting is over.
00:30:53Serena, wait up!
00:30:56You!
00:30:56Uh, tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:04Serena!
00:31:05Serena!
00:31:06Don't even worry about that.
00:31:07I know our Enterprise took a huge hit today, but as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake
00:31:11project,
00:31:12change the game, and everyone will still think that we're in control. Easy!
00:31:17The three billion dollar Crescent Lake project.
00:31:20If we can win that contract, we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:25Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before, and I'm going to put this one in your hands too.
00:31:31It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:33No, no, absolutely. You can count on me. Amber Group's deputy VP of projects. I mean, you trust me clearly.
00:31:40Who else has been his eyes?
00:31:49Get the Crescent Lake contract ready. Same as always.
00:31:52Once the Harper team arrives, we hand it straight to them.
00:31:55Ms. Lawson, we just got an update. Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise. The engagement is off.
00:32:00Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:04Are you sure?
00:32:07Absolutely.
00:32:08Word is she listened to her assistant Damien, who really stirred the pot, and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:14Serena really thinks she got where she is because of Damien? That pretty little laptop?
00:32:18Then do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:23Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake? Not a chance. Open it to public bidding.
00:32:31Yes, ma'am.
00:32:39Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:42Damien, Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon. How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:02Damien? What does this mean, huh?
00:33:04Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:09That's one million in clean crypto, untraceable. Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:18We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:22Oh my, Damien. You're too kind.
00:33:25Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:33Sit tight.
00:33:35Contract's yours.
00:33:38Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:44Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:33:59Miss Larson.
00:34:12Well, well. Prince, Jillian.
00:34:18Heard Serena kicked you out?
00:34:20Six months of hard work.

00:52:03damian right mason wasn't that the reason for six months harper enterprise got everything it wanted
00:52:13from ember group for one reason julian clark
00:52:19damian has nothing to do with that he was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts
00:52:25what when julian was there bribe or no bribe harper enterprise got the deals anyway but now julian's
00:52:34gone so the special treatment is gone damian's little arriving incident it was just a convenient
00:52:41excuse to take everything back and about those flawless projects harper enterprise didn't run smoothly
00:52:53because damian is brilliant it runs smoothly because julian called every partner every supplier every
00:53:01gatekeeper and cleared the path for you damian had nothing to do with that no
00:53:11that's not true i i don't believe it you don't believe me then watch watch what happens

00:53:25there to hold the world together for you come on let's go
00:53:37julian is what she's saying true you were right about one thing serena julian and i are closer than
00:53:44you thought that's why it disgusted me watching him waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like
00:53:56you

01:01:10Help me, help me, help me!
01:01:11Julian!
01:01:12Julian, help me, help me!
01:01:16Get him out of here!
01:01:18Stop!
01:01:18Let me go!
01:01:20Julian, you know this wasn't the fucking place.
01:01:22This isn't over.
01:01:27Julian, please!
01:01:29Thank God, you came and you had like-
01:01:31We are not that close.
01:01:35I was just passing through, I heard some screaming,
01:01:37so I stopped by to check.
01:01:39You.
01:01:39I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:42Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:43Yes, sir.
01:01:47Julian, I am sorry.
01:01:48I know.
01:01:50I was wrong.
01:01:52Just...
01:01:52Please, come back.
01:01:54Julian!
01:01:56Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:01:58Let's go.
01:02:07Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:17And you refused to listen.
01:02:21Julian, and Julian, if Julian doesn't come along, just at the right time.
01:02:25Oh my God.
01:02:27I can't even, I can't even think about it.
01:02:30If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours, one day, you live to regret it.
01:02:36Dad, Grandpa, please, stop.
01:02:38I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:42I'll apologize to Julian, and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:49The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:02:54Grandpa, don't worry.
01:02:59I will apologize properly, and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:04That's all we can do.
01:03:07So, John, put out a citywide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:14He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:17We're not letting that go.
01:03:20No, we're not.
01:03:22Understood.
01:03:54Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:01What is this supposed to be?
01:04:03A gift for you.
01:04:05Myself.
01:04:07I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:09Amber group backs you up.
01:04:11No questions asked.
01:04:12But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:17Not really.
01:04:27Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:30You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:33You know, a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped, and any man would've, you know,
01:04:39housed me by now.
01:04:41Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:44Hung up?
01:04:47How would I be hung up on Serena?
01:04:48She and I were never romantic.
01:04:51No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:04:55Things are moving too fast.
01:04:57Things are moving too fast.
01:04:58The other thing twice.
01:04:59But I don't have time.
01:05:01My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:06Some old money.
01:05:08Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:11Wait.
01:05:11What are you talking about?
01:05:12Are you serious?
01:05:13Yes, Julian.
01:05:15My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of
01:05:20me permanently.
01:05:20But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:22I want you.
01:05:23I love you.
01:05:25Julian.
01:05:26Julian.
01:05:27Let's make it official.
01:05:30Let's get married.
01:05:33You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:40Please, John.
01:05:51Okay.
01:05:53I'll marry you.
01:05:55Are you serious?
01:05:57No take backs.
01:05:58No take backs.
01:05:59Ever.
01:05:59Ever.
01:06:00I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:03But can you help me out?
01:06:07Um, my hands are getting hurt.
01:06:10So impatient.
01:06:14It's like you said, if I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:26Then be gentle.
01:06:35Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:41Uh, no.
01:06:42Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:44Of course I remember that.
01:06:46You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, kind of, you kind of remember that
01:06:50for the rest of your life.
01:06:51Details.
01:06:52Those are just tiny details.
01:06:57You look like big details to me.
01:07:03Julian, can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:06Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:09Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:10I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:12I misjudged everything.
01:07:14Please, just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:18And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:21I'll do anything.
01:07:22I'm sorry, I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:28Boyfriend?
01:07:34Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:37Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:39And yet you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:44He asked you out 37 times.
01:07:46So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:50Hmm?
01:07:52Men like him?
01:07:54If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:07:59Listen carefully, we are all together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:04If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:09Come on.
01:08:10We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:13Let's not be late.
01:08:14Wedding outfits.
01:08:17Let's go.
01:08:22Let's go.
01:08:29Let's go.
01:08:31So how did it go?
01:08:34Julian?
01:08:34He's with Nora.
01:08:36Oh, God.
01:08:40Nora.
01:08:42Nora Lawson, CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:45Of course.
01:08:47You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:08:51The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:08:54You don't get another chance.
01:08:56God gave our family a chance.
01:08:59And we blew it.
01:09:01God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:04Please.
01:09:06Ms. Hopper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:10Harper Enterprise's cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:13If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:19Great.
01:09:20Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:23That was going to lend to us now.
01:09:25How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:27This is my fault.
01:09:29Okay?
01:09:30I was blind.
01:09:31Are you proud now?
01:09:33I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:37I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:42And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:47Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:09:50I ruined Harper Enterprise.
01:09:52I ruined everything.
01:09:55Dad, you're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:09:59So maybe you should go talk to him and see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:05Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:06Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:09If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:12The Clark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:15Yes, they honored our engagement.
01:10:19And that was a mercy.
01:10:21That was a blessing.
01:10:23But you threw it away.
01:10:27Still.
01:10:29For your sake and for your future.
01:10:31And for our future.
01:10:34We'll fight.
01:10:39Come on.
01:10:41Serena, when you see Julian's grandfather, your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:50If he forgives you, only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:10:57Understood, Grandpa.
01:10:59For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:17Welcome.
01:11:18You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:23Perfect timing.
01:11:24They're just about to start.
01:11:26Engagement party?
01:11:28So they're really engaged?
01:11:31Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:35What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:37Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born and everyone is so happy that they're
01:11:43finally getting married.
01:11:44Oh, oh, I see.
01:11:47You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:50Then, please leave.
01:11:52Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:00If there's an engagement party, that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:08And that means we're done.
01:12:11There's no more chances left.
01:12:13We're leaving.
01:12:15Is this my punishment?
01:12:17It's just my punishment.
01:12:19All right, everyone.
01:12:21Big smiles.
01:12:25Woo!
01:12:32Shhh.
01:12:33Shhh, shhh.
01:12:33Shhh.
01:12:34Shhh.
01:12:35Shhh.
01:12:36Shhh.
01:12:36Shhh.
01:12:37Shhh.
01:12:38Shhh.
01:12:39Shhh.
01:12:46Shhh.
01:12:47What is it?
01:12:48Ah, it's nothing. Come on, dinner's almost ready.
01:13:04Dad! The Harpers!
01:13:08My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:12For a young one,
01:13:14at six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:17it was a total humiliation.
01:13:20We've shown the Harpers more mercy than they ever deserved.
01:13:26Understood, Dad.
01:13:34Okay, enough, Serena. Stop.
01:13:37You can't drink this away.
01:13:39Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:42If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:46Just leave me the fuck alone.
01:13:48Okay? Just let me drink.
01:13:50I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:52I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:54No, you...
01:13:57Alright, I've gotta take this. Don't move.
01:14:00I'll be right back, and then I am taking you home.
01:14:12Okay, Nora.
01:14:15Okay, Nora. Be honest. You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:20You just got engaged, and you're getting married next week?
01:14:24Let's see. You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:28You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:30I've liked Julian for 20 years, and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:35You think I'm not gonna lock it down now?
01:14:37Lock it down from what?
01:14:38From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:40They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:44I have to move fast.
01:14:46If they start begging, what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:52But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:14:55There's no real love.
01:14:56Why will Julian hesitate?
01:14:58What are you afraid of?
01:15:00You don't get it.
01:15:01Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:05and it wasn't just because his grandfather would order it.
01:15:08Then why?
01:15:10Because Serena is his type.
01:15:15Wait, what?
01:15:18I am Julian's type?
01:15:22No way!
01:15:23I'm serious.
01:15:25The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:27That exact time.
01:15:29I mean, with his personality, even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:34he would have stayed there for three days max and then vanished.
01:15:37He would not stay there and take six months of humiliation if he didn't want it to.
01:15:43That's Julian Clark.
01:15:46So that's why?
01:15:47Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:49I have to get married fast.
01:15:52I cannot give her a single chance.
01:15:55So that's what it was.
01:15:56Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months because I'm his type.
01:16:01He likes me.
01:16:02That means I still have a chance.
01:16:04I still have a chance.
01:16:06This is my last shot.
01:16:08I am not wasting it.
01:16:16Where is she?
01:16:23Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:39Wow.
01:16:40They look perfect together.
01:16:43They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:44The whole fantasy.
01:16:45Oh my God.
01:16:46Brilliant.
01:16:48And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:03Wait!
01:17:10Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:18Julian.
01:17:36I know you like me.
01:17:38You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months humiliating.
01:17:41You wouldn't have stayed at it if you didn't.
01:17:46I know.
01:17:48I was wrong.
01:17:49Totally wrong.
01:17:49Okay?
01:17:50Just please.
01:17:52Give me another chance.
01:17:56Our engagement is over.
01:17:58In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:01Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:03Have some dignity.
01:18:04In fact, can we get her out of here?
01:18:06Please?
01:18:06No, please.
01:18:07I'll do anything.
01:18:09Just...
01:18:14I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times, but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:22I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:18:27Just...
01:18:28Can we please get her out?
01:18:29No, don't touch me!
01:18:31Julian.
01:18:32What do you want from me?
01:18:33I know you like me.
01:18:34So...
01:18:35So why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:37Why?
01:18:42Simple question.
01:18:43Do you love me?
01:18:47I...
01:18:48Exactly.
01:18:48You don't.
01:18:50You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:52You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:18:55See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:18:59You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:04No, that...
01:19:05That's not true.
01:19:07Just please.
01:19:09Listen.
01:19:10Please, listen.
01:19:11Enough!
01:19:11Serena!
01:19:12When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise, do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:17Let me ask you this.
01:19:19If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:21if your value kept climbing,
01:19:23would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:27I...
01:19:28No, I...
01:19:29No, you wouldn't.
01:19:30You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:31You'd be celebrating.
01:19:33You'd say that you earned the business queen a crown.
01:19:35You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:38You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:40Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:43No.
01:19:45No, Julian.
01:19:46That's not me!
01:19:48Just admit it, Serena!
01:19:50You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:52But on my wedding day, you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:19:55Why?
01:19:56Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:19:59Your donor.
01:19:59Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:02But the moment I stop being useful, you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:07No.
01:20:09No, Julian.
01:20:10That is not true.
01:20:12The night that you saved me from Damien, I...
01:20:17I felt something for you!
01:20:19I-I did!
01:20:20Stop!
01:20:20Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:23You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:24You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:26You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:29You know, I'll admit, when I met you, you were exactly my type.
01:20:35But once I got to know you, once I realized what you really are, all I felt was disgust!
01:20:43But Nora?
01:20:46She has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:50When I was sick, she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:20:55When I was at my lowest, she pulled me back up.
01:20:58Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement,
01:21:02she still supported me.
01:21:04She still took hits from me.
01:21:09So, let me ask you.
01:21:12Why would I give up all of that for you?
01:21:16What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:23Get her out.
01:21:24No, no.
01:21:25No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:27Don't, don't, please.
01:21:28I'm begging you, just please let me explain!
01:21:31Please!
01:21:32Please, let me, please stop, let me go!
01:21:34Julian, please don't do it!
01:21:37Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:38I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:39Turns out, she just realized, without Julian, she can't stay on top.
01:21:44She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:46Totally vampire-drained and dry.
01:21:48Again, we're gonna find.
01:22:09You don't change!
01:22:36I'm sure you've all heard Harper Enterprise affected today has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:42So, you're all being terminated.
01:22:46What?
01:22:48Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:50I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:53You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:22:5515 years, wow.
01:22:57Congratulations.
01:22:58You've had 15 years to make this company clean.
01:23:00Instead, you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:04You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:07I've seen how you all work.
01:23:08Mr. Clark, bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:18Who do you want to be?
01:23:19I was a file.
01:23:20So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms.
01:23:24And once you sign them, hand over your badges, or you're going to rob them.
01:23:31This.
01:23:32This is it.
01:23:47Are you satisfied now?
01:23:50Satisfied?
01:23:51Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:53He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:23:58I saved you.
01:24:04Julian, if I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:18Julian, why don't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:21I spent my whole life climbing upwards, and now I'm stuck at the bottom, hunted by cops.
01:24:26I won't accept it.
01:24:28Julian, what's yours?
01:24:29Julian!
01:24:34Let me go!
01:24:35Fucking let me go!
01:24:36I already spared you.
01:24:37You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:40Yo, take him to the police.
01:24:41Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:42I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:44Fucking coward.
01:24:44You're a fucking coward!
01:24:46Hiding behind your goddamn family's money.
01:24:48No, no, fight me.
01:24:49101.
01:24:49101, let the guards go!
01:24:51You're all the fucking guards, do you?
01:24:56Hey, Julian, what was that?
01:24:59Just taking out the trash.
01:25:02Are you done here?
01:25:05No.
01:25:06Let's go.
01:25:13I was wrong!
01:25:15Julian, I was wrong!
01:25:17I was wrong!
01:25:18I was wrong!
01:25:18I was wrong!
01:25:19I was wrong!
01:25:19I was wrong!
