Full Episode of Being Fired? Now I'm Out of Their League!
Transcript
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 argumentation.
00:00:11Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:14Help me up here, I'm drowning.
00:00:16Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:21No, you have to.
00:00:22I need you to buy the stock, or I totally put the dollar.
00:00:24You can't do this now.
00:00:26This isn't some random dip.
00:00:27Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:30We 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.
00:00:50Shit.
00:00:50We need your help. You're very important.
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 you 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.
00:01:22The 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.
00:02:12Today, Damien successfully neutralized the short attack against Harper
00:02:16and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:19Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:27Since when does Damien own House of Takeover from a hole in the ground?
00:02:30He must have stole this win from someone else.
00:02:32Remember what he did to Anthony from Investments?
00:02:35Damien took credit for his deal, Anthony pushed back,
00:02:38and Damien used his pool of 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 that helped save your livelihoods.
00:03:08Julian, our company just went through a crisis, and you're up here gaming?
00:03:14Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:18This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:22Wait, I'm sorry, everyone.
00:03:25I 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 attacker?
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?
00:03:53All right, 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?
00:04:01Well, well, well, well, yeah, well, well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:09All right.
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.
00:04:38You, 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, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:06I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company now.
00:05:13You took our family's market cap and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:19You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:21Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:25Harper'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, but our 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...
00:05:45Oh, 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.
00:05:53Go work with Serena.
00:05:55And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:00You refuse.
00:06:02Okay.
00:06:03Nurse, Dr. Ann, check it 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 again, for years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:18We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:21The Harper's never 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 the 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, pathetic.
00:07:15I said you're fired.
00:07:15Get your shit and get the fuck out of my book.
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.
00:07:25You're gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:27Suit yourself.
00:07:29Julian, this is Harper Enterprise.
00:07:31Not your family's playground.
00:07:34Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:37You 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?
00:07:48Serena, don'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 is because of your
00:08:01dusty 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.
00:08:12I mean, even your fiancé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:14So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking do it?
00:08:26You broke it.
00:08:27You broke my petite.
00:08:28You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:30A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:34You lost your balance.
00:08:36Maybe work on your course sheet.
00:08:38Julian, 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, you 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 going to rot in jail.
00:09:03Fine.
00:09:05I'll pay.
00:09:06Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:08What?
00:09:08One 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.
00:09:20It 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.
00:09:33Well, you're going to wire me the money, or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:37And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:44So what if you're Serena's fiance?
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, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:13I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:21You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:25What's next, a private army?
00:10:27All right, Julian, the charade ends now.
00:10:29Leave 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, you 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!
00:10:47You 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.
00:11:06Prisoner of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:07What's a Wall Street titan doing unaccompanish?
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.
00:11:40Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash?
00:11:46To Julian?
00:11:48Wait, the money is...
00:11:49It's real?
00:11:50Wait.
00:11:52Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:53I mean...
00:11:54Wait, who are you?
00:11:57Much appreciated.
00:11:58You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:07Mr. Brooks!
00:12:07Sir, we 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?
00:12:22My 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 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 will have his head.
00:12:56This is all your fault, all right?
00:12:58You gotta fix this.
00:12:59You call him back here and get that loan reinstated,
00:13:01or 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 son of a bitch!
00:13:24I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:26I bet you ought 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, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:42I don't know, maybe 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.
00:13:57For a laptop.
00:13:59Julian.
00:14:00The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:03What's your committing 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?
00:14:13Ask a kisser.
00:14:14Enough!
00:14:16Julian.
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.
00:14:27A standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:29But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:31What is it?
00:14:31Made of gold?
00:14:33Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars!
00:14:35You know what?
00:14:37You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:46Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:48That's Billy Sullivan.
00:14:49SVP for stellar.
00:14:51Here?
00:14:51You think it's about the $300 million partnership here?
00:14:54$300 million?
00:14:55That's huge for us, but pocket change for stellar.
00:14:58Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:00Mr. Sullivan.
00:15:02Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:04I'm Sabrina Harper.
00:15:05Uh, CEO, do, what 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 all right?
00:15:24Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:25It just took a fall.
00:15:28God, this damage is significant.
00:15:31With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be $30 million.
00:15:39$30 million?
00:15:40No, no, 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...
00:15:47Well, 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've just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:01It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:05I mean, with our declarations, this is at least $70 million.
00:16:08Oh, that's $70 million?
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 $100 million laptop?
00:16:43Who exactly are you?
00:16:45You don't get to know.
00:16:47In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:49There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs $100 million.
00:16:53You know what?
00:16:53This is a fucking scam.
00:16:55These two, they're working together.
00:16:56I'm telling you, it'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 of Skim and nobody like you.
00:17:05Listen, I'm so...
00:17:06Ms. 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?
00:17:17Consider it terminated.
00:17:18What?
00:17:19Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:21Damien is just...
00:17:23He's stressy.
00:17:24He didn't mean...
00:17:25Save it.
00:17:25You 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.
00:17:36I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:40Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:42He never lost.
00:17:44Damien can't fight this.
00:17:46Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:49He's done for.
00:17:53So, let me have help.
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 in my account within three days.
00:18:20In that case, we're done here.
00:18:23Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else.
00:18:25I'll do it.
00:18:27Mr. Sullivan, are our partners...
00:18:28Miss Harper, get 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!
00:18:37Oh, that's funny.
00:18:39Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:40A hundred million on the line and you swoop in to 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!
00:18:54We 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, Julian?
00:19:12You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:13Yeah, 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?
00:19:24One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:29Remind me, which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:32Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:34He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:39Stop!
00:19:40Stop!
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.
00:19:56Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
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.
00:20:18I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:21Security, 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 brought 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 won't need that phone call.
00:20:54Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:56Move.
00:20:56Get him 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!
00:21:10Now!
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 shut up?
00:21:51How dare you disrespect Julian?
00:21:55Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has.
00:21:57You can't just hit people.
00:21:59I wish we hit him more.
00:22:00Serena, 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?
00:22:15Serena, 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.
00:22:22No need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:24Julian, please, understand.
00:22:26All of this is on us.
00:22:28Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harper family.
00:22:33Give 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.
00:22:56And I will not apologize to you!
00:22:59Serena, enough!
00:23:00Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:02Let me apologize.
00:23:03Say that.
00:23:05Serena 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.
00:23:17Cease every protective measure, effective immediately.
00:23:19Julian, please, don't.
00:23:21Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:24Look!
00:23:26Oh!
00:23:27What?
00:23:30What?
00:23:32Oh, I guess you would have just pulled their orders.
00:23:34What do you mean?
00:23:35Hostile takeover.
00:23:37All of our 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, leaving the group
00:23:59facing 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's suddenly lose power?
00:24:10What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:14How 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.
00:24:30Miss Harper, this isn't a race.
00:24:31Our major partners are terminating their contracts, and our own liquidity can't cover the gas.
00:24:37It's come to use.
00:24:38The stock 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
00:24:54feet?
00:24:55Apologize to Julian.
00:24:57No!
00:25:01Serena, apologize.
00:25:05Serena.
00:25:15Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:18Harper Enterprises is worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:25:20You really think we can't survive without him? Let's just get through this crisis, and I swear I will make
00:25:25him pay for everything that he has done to you!
00:25:33You apologize to Julian right now! Get on your n-
00:25:37Dad!
00:25:39Damien! Damien!
00:25:41Dad, stop! Damien has only ever stood up for me. He is the only one who actually cares about me,
00:25:46and 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? Do you even have any idea who he really
00:25:56is?
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.
00:26:08Wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right? What about this guy? What about him?
00:26:13He hides behind your name to steal other people's work. He throws tea on me in this very room.
00:26:18He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a $100,000 watch. Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:22Well, I...
00:26:25But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:28Hey, 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. I 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, I'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. Listen to him sing your praises,
00:26:52right?
00:26:54Who's that?
00:26:56Oh, 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? Brilliant?
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.
00:28:39Eyes up Serena.
00:28:40In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections
00:28:44and 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 begging 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. It's not true, huh?
00:29:11Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me and my hard work and my connections.
00:29:16Oh, you perigot fool.
00:29:19Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:22Oh.
00:29:28Alright, that's enough.
00:29:30Ah, I finally got the all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:33I need to 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. I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:48Without my connections and my network, Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:54And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:29:58Wait, wait, wait.
00:29:59Go on.
00:30:01Prepare yourselves.
00:30:03Julian. Julian.
00:30:04Julian.
00:30:08Serena.
00:30:09You silly, foolish, foolish girl.
00:30:12Grandpa, I have never been clearer. With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:19Serena's right. Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper, I'm going to stand by Serena's side and I'm going to give her everything
00:30:24that I've got.
00:30:26Crap. I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all.
00:30:30Dad, that is enough.
00:30:33Dad? Grandpa?
00:30:35I know you have your issues with Damien, but I believe he will prove himself to you. And so will
00:30:40I.
00:30:43I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:30:48It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:51This meeting is over.
00:30:53Serena, wait up!
00:30:56You!
00:30:57Tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:04Serena! Serena!
00:31:06Don't even worry about that. I know our enterprise took a huge hit today, but as long as we lock
00:31:10down Amber Group's Crescent Lake project, change the game, and everyone will still think that we're in control. Easy!
00:31:17The $3 billion 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.
00:31:32It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:33No, no, absolutely. You can count on me.
00:31:35Amber Group's deputy VP of projects. I mean, he trusts me clearly.
00:31:40He also spit 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.
00:31:55Miss Lawson, we just got an update. Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise. The engagement is off.
00:32:01Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:05Are 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?
00:32:17That for your little laptop?
00:32:19Then, 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.
00:32:29Open it to public bidding.
00:32:31Yes, ma'am.
00:32:39Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:42Damien.
00:32:43Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:32:46How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:01Damien?
00:33:02What 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.
00:33:14Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:18We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:21Oh 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.
00:33:48Thanks.
00:34:02Thanks.
00:34:04Thanks.
00:34:15Thanks.
00:34:16Thanks, Julian.
00:34:18I heard Serena kicked you out.
00:34:20Six months of hard work, down the drain.
00:34:24What does that feel?
00:34:26Oh, I see. So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit. Is that right?
00:34:32Of course. Not.
00:34:36I'm here to steal you.
00:34:39You see, since your engagement is off, I was thinking, how about you consider me, huh?
00:34:51Guys like us, we don't get to escape alliances.
00:34:53Our families will marry us off either way, so why pick a stranger when there's someone who actually knows you?
00:35:04You see? Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school.
00:35:13We match, you know? We fit.
00:35:18Hang on. Nora, are you saying this because you're drunk or do you...
00:35:30I'm not drunk, okay?
00:35:32You don't have to answer me tonight, just think about it.
00:35:36Hmm?
00:35:38Hmm?
00:35:41Ah!
00:36:07I told you, I'm not drunk!
00:36:09Nora, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:12Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:16Nora, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:18Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:35Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO, allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:42Oh, I am so sorry. Bad, bad timing, truly terrible timing.
00:36:55Don't move.
00:36:56If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:00Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:02And our group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:05Rumor can boost tomorrow's company's visibility, but I'm not letting the pictures of my breasts go through.
00:37:11Okay. Okay. But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night, I think my
00:37:23heart's gonna skip on its chest.
00:37:37And suffer, okay? If you push me, I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:49Please, stay. Walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:07Speak of the devil, of all good times.
00:38:15You know, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO, Nora Lawson.
00:38:20Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:23Oh, wait.
00:38:27Well, well. I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time.
00:38:32Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all.
00:38:35Can I help you with something?
00:38:38Seriously? This woman's even prettier than Serena.
00:38:41How does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:44I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:46Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here, she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:52Whoring herself out like this?
00:38:55Let's be bolder.
00:38:56Is that so?
00:38:58You know, I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's Crescent Lake project.
00:39:06What? You're bidding too?
00:39:07Yeah, I know you got connection.
00:39:08And that's great, you know.
00:39:09But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:12Me? I got real talent, alright?
00:39:13And I'm gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:16You? You're just gonna fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:20Good luck.
00:39:32See that?
00:39:34That is a shameless whore.
00:39:36That woman seems familiar.
00:39:39Listen man, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:42Alright, come on. Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:45Let's go socialize and maybe we'll run into the host of the party lost on herself.
00:39:49And if we do, I'll make sure we leave a good impression.
00:40:10So that pretty boy Damien actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:15Tonight we're gonna see who's really on top.
00:40:18Okay. Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:21What?
00:40:23You've known me since we were kids. Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:27But if you like glasses, I can do glasses.
00:40:31Oh can you? You can do glasses?
00:40:33Yeah.
00:40:34Miss Lawson, it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:42I'll let you get to it.
00:40:46Sally?
00:41:04Julie.
00:41:08I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:09You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:13You know what?
00:41:15Mason Brooks, Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects,
00:41:18already agreed to award the contract to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:22You can't win.
00:41:27I hear the Crescent Lake Project is basically yours.
00:41:30Congratulations.
00:41:32Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street.
00:41:35And with Damien backing you up, it's unstoppable.
00:41:37When the two of you take off, don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:40Of course.
00:41:41You know, we're gonna take care of you guys.
00:41:42Thank you so much.
00:41:50See that, Julian?
00:41:52Everybody already knows that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:55I suggest you walk out of here before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:41:58It's funny.
00:42:00You see, my Clark Group has deeper capital, better tech,
00:42:03and a stronger global record than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:06so I'm just curious, why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:10He recognizes Damien's talent, of course.
00:42:17I need to take this.
00:42:25My Julian.
00:42:28What century are you living in?
00:42:31You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:34Then what does?
00:42:36Ain't really that fucking stupid?
00:42:38Of course this.
00:42:41I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:44What do you have that's gonna be that?
00:42:48You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:50That's impossible.
00:42:51He wouldn't dare.
00:42:52That's impossible.
00:42:53He wouldn't dare.
00:42:54Yeah, you wanna understand the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:42:57But hey, you're a very lovely, beautiful escort.
00:43:01Why don't you do us all a favor, get up on that stage,
00:43:03and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:06Hey.
00:43:06Hey, I'm gonna tell you.
00:43:08You wanna know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:11Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune.
00:43:17Capital technology.
00:43:20It's useless.
00:43:21Fucking trash!
00:43:24Mason Brooks, you've got a lot of nerve.
00:43:27He's finished.
00:43:28Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:30Who the fuck is this?
00:43:32Who are you?
00:43:33What do you think?
00:43:34You're the Amber Group CEO or something?
00:43:37Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:39It's adorable, no?
00:43:40Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.
00:43:44Anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:58What are you gonna report, Mr. Brooks?
00:44:00Hmm?
00:44:03You hit me.
00:44:05You think you put your fucking hands on me?!
00:44:07I can have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call.
00:44:13There he is, Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:14You're finished.
00:44:18Mr. Brooks.
00:44:19What do you mean my friend?
00:44:20There's a woman here.
00:44:22I said she's gonna report to you.
00:44:23Come on, please, teach her a lesson.
00:44:24Oh, report me?
00:44:26Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:27This woman right here.
00:44:31Miss...
00:44:32Lawson?
00:44:33She's even...
00:44:33She's even quoting the anti-corruption code like she's somebody.
00:44:36Like, how fucking ridiculous!
00:44:37What?
00:44:38What?
00:44:40This...
00:44:42This can't be...
00:44:45Go ahead, laugh!
00:44:47Laugh some more.
00:44:48Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:50You'll say anything out loud!
00:44:51Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:52She's just some gold-dicking whore!
00:44:54I mean, even if she rats you out, who's gonna believe this?
00:44:58Why are you hitting me?!
00:44:59Shut your fucking mouth!
00:45:01When did I ever take your money?
00:45:03I never took one cent!
00:45:05Say it again, and I'll bury you.
00:45:07Idiot!
00:45:08Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:11Mr. Lawson, this...
00:45:12This Damien...
00:45:13He's a lunatic!
00:45:14He's making things up!
00:45:15Don't listen to him!
00:45:17I swear, I never took one dollar from him!
00:45:20Not once!
00:45:23Ms. Lawson?
00:45:26No, no, wait!
00:45:27You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:29Amber's group CEO?
00:45:30How is that possible?
00:45:31How is that fucking-
00:45:32Mr. Brooks!
00:45:33Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:35Thank you so much for awarding the Crescent Lake Project to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:39We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:43Stop!
00:45:44Shut the fuck up!
00:45:46When did I ever give you anything?!
00:45:50Ms. Lawson?
00:45:51These Harper Enterprise people, they're all out of their minds!
00:45:55They lie like the wind!
00:45:57I can't believe a word they say!
00:45:59Ms. Lawson?
00:46:01Ms. Lawson?
00:46:03She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:08The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:10Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:12You can leave now.
00:46:16Ms. Lawson, I am so sorry.
00:46:19Damien didn't know who you were, so he thought that you and Julian were being inappropriate.
00:46:25But I'll make him apologize.
00:46:27Right now.
00:46:28He is blunt.
00:46:30Yes.
00:46:31But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:34Please, give Harper Enterprise the contract and I promise we will deliver results that satisfy you.
00:46:41Exceptional ability?
00:46:43Are you sure about that?
00:46:45Of course.
00:46:46If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him so many contracts before?
00:46:51You're about to find out.
00:46:58Damien?
00:47:00What does she mean?
00:47:02Oh, shit.
00:47:03I can't let her find out I secured every project.
00:47:06Right.
00:47:06So, she's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:09So, she wants revenge.
00:47:11So, she's gonna embarrass Harper Enterprise in front of everyone.
00:47:13So, what we need to do is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:15Let's go.
00:47:16Go.
00:47:17If we don't win Crescent Lake, Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:21Even if Miss Lawson is trying to punish us, we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:25Serena, please.
00:47:26Okay.
00:47:26I'm sorry.
00:47:28Here we go now.
00:47:29Alright, I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones, but we need to go now.
00:47:32Come on.
00:47:33What is wrong with you today?
00:47:35Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:37I...
00:47:50You want to understand the rules on top there, sweetheart?
00:47:54Technology capital.
00:47:56Useless fucking trash.
00:47:58What?
00:47:59Shit, she actually recorded it?
00:48:01And escort.
00:48:02So, why don't you do us all a nice little favor, get up on that stage, give us a nice
00:48:05little
00:48:06cold show.
00:48:09Who is that?
00:48:11He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?
00:48:14That's Damien Blackwell, Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.
00:48:17How do you not know him?
00:48:18All of the best Amber projects being sent to Harper Enterprise over the past six months,
00:48:23and now we know they were bought.
00:48:27That's not true.
00:48:28All of that's a lie.
00:48:29It's just not...
00:48:30Don't believe it.
00:48:31I...
00:48:31Just turn it up.
00:48:32Turn it up right now!
00:48:33Stop him!
00:48:34Stop!
00:48:35Not coming with me!
00:48:37Damien, you did this behind my back?
00:48:40This is your talent?
00:48:41Your ability?
00:48:43Serena, please just see us.
00:48:45Mr. Brooks' suspension?
00:48:46What a fucking routine to say to Samuel.
00:48:48Who are you to say anything?
00:48:50What do you think, your Amber group CEO?
00:48:52Amber.
00:48:54Turn it off, please, okay?
00:48:56Okay, Ms. Lawson, please just turn it off.
00:48:58Just...
00:48:58Please stop it!
00:48:59Please!
00:49:00Please!
00:49:00Please!
00:49:01Bribery is one thing, but mistaking Ms. Lawson for an escort?
00:49:06A whore?
00:49:07Yes.
00:49:07He's fucking blind.
00:49:09The best part?
00:49:10He confessed right in front of her that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:14Genius!
00:49:15And Serena trusted him to be her assistant?
00:49:17I mean, what does that say about her judgment?
00:49:19Damien, you have disappointed me beyond words.
00:49:24Serena, I did it because I cared about you.
00:49:26Because I care about Harper Enterprise.
00:49:28Please, I'm happy.
00:49:28You told me the truth.
00:49:30Enough.
00:49:31Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:33Mason Brooks, you're fired.
00:49:35Effective immediately.
00:49:38I'm done.
00:49:39The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:43Harper Enterprise is disqualified.
00:49:46Every single project Amber Group has done together with them will be suspended.
00:49:51The projects will be back for competitive bidding.
00:49:55No, no, you can't do that.
00:49:57Those projects are our next three years.
00:50:00They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:02Their lives are future.
00:50:04And why the person who hired Trash is called it talent?
00:50:09Real talent.
00:50:16Pathetic.
00:50:21Serena.
00:50:24Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:27Miss Lawson, wait!
00:50:28Serena!
00:50:37I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:50:40Asking for dinner isn't too much, right?
00:50:43Not at all.
00:50:44You pick my treat.
00:50:46Generous.
00:50:48Let's go.
00:50:48Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:52Miss Lawson, Damien was wrong to bribe anyone and I apologize on his behalf.
00:51:01Just please, give Harper Enterprise another chance.
00:51:05I will meet the highest standards.
00:51:08I will deliver a perfect result on every project.
00:51:11Perfect result?
00:51:12And what exactly guarantees that?
00:51:15Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:18Miss Lawson, Damien made a mistake.
00:51:22But his ability is exceptional.
00:51:26For six months, he managed every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly.
00:51:30No errors.
00:51:31No delays.
00:51:31If you don't pull this contract, I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:51:40Managed flawlessly.
00:51:42He's not the only empty suit here.
00:51:45You're too.
00:51:46Miss Lawson, you are crossing a line.
00:51:51I understand that you and Julian are close and you want to get back at me for him.
00:51:57But humiliating someone like this, isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:00You really think I froze our cooperation because Damien and Bribe Mason?
00:52:05Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:08For six months, Harper Enterprise got everything it wanted from Ember Group.
00:52:14For one reason.
00:52:17Julian Clark.
00:52:19Damien has nothing to do with that.
00:52:22He was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts.
00:52:25What?
00:52:26When Julian was there, bribe or no bribe, Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway.
00:52:33But now, Julian's gone, so the special treatment is gone.
00:52:37Damien's little arriving incident, it was just a convenient excuse to take everything back.
00:52:43Understand now?
00:52:48And about those flawless projects.
00:52:51Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because Damien is brilliant.
00:52:55It ran smoothly because Julian called every partner, every supplier, every gatekeeper
00:53:02and cleared the path for you.
00:53:04Damien had nothing to do with that.
00:53:08No.
00:53:11That's not true.
00:53:12I don't believe in you.
00:53:13You don't believe me?
00:53:14Then watch.
00:53:16Watch what happens when Julian leaves.
00:53:20Let's see if your exceptional Damien can keep everything perfect
00:53:23when Julian is not there to hold the world together for you.
00:53:28Come on, let's go.
00:53:37Julian, is what she's saying true?
00:53:40You were right about one thing, Serena.
00:53:43Julian and I are closer than you thought.
00:53:46That's why it disgusts me watching him waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like you.
00:53:56Was I wrong?
00:53:58No, no, no, Serena, Serena.
00:53:59Do not listen to her nonsense.
00:54:01Harper's success is based off of my hard work.
00:54:04Okay, Nora Lawson, she's attacking and slandering my name to defend.
00:54:09Julian, you have to believe me.
00:54:10Please, you have to understand.
00:54:12Because of you, Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:15Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:18Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse and you're asking me to trust you?
00:54:23How?
00:54:23Tell me how.
00:54:25Please, just listen to me.
00:54:27Okay, yeah, we lost Amber group, but we're not finished.
00:54:31I mean, we still have the partners and the CEOs.
00:54:33I mean, they love me.
00:54:33They absolutely love and adore me.
00:54:36I promise.
00:54:37You know what, matter of fact, I'm gonna call and I'm gonna get you some new projects right now.
00:54:44Hello, Mr. Foster, it's Damien here.
00:54:47I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids and Harper Enterprise, you know, we would absolutely love.
00:54:53Harper Enterprise, who the hell is that?
00:54:55You think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:54:58Uh, Mr. Foster, what do you mean?
00:55:03Last time we spoke, you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise and that you would love to work
00:55:08together.
00:55:08Listen up, that's because Julian Clark was in your damn enterprise.
00:55:13I was giving him respect.
00:55:15You, don't flatter yourself, bunch of blind dumbasses.
00:55:19Call me again and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:22So what really was Julian?
00:55:24No, no, that's not possible.
00:55:26I don't believe that.
00:55:28I don't.
00:55:29Hello, Mr. Parker, it's Damien.
00:55:30I was hoping to talk about future collaborations.
00:55:33Damien?
00:55:34You've got the fucking nerve to call me?
00:55:36I gave Harper Enterprise projects because of Mr. Clark.
00:55:40And then you turned around and claimed you closed the deal?
00:55:43Who gave you the audacity?
00:55:45Shameless trash?
00:55:50Ms. Parker.
00:55:52Ms. Parker, no!
00:55:53No, goddammit!
00:55:55I don't believe this.
00:55:56I don't believe it was fucking Julian this whole fucking time.
00:56:00Goddammit!
00:56:01I'm sorry.
00:56:02I'm sorry.
00:56:03Um...
00:56:03Hello?
00:56:05Mr. Turner, it's Damien.
00:56:07Damien?
00:56:07Who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:09Calling me directly?
00:56:11Learned some manners.
00:56:14Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancee.
00:56:17I'm not.
00:56:18You bastard tooie.
00:56:21Mr. Turner?
00:56:22Mr.
00:56:23Mr.
00:56:23Turner, please.
00:56:26What is happening?
00:56:27What the fuck is happening?
00:56:34Ms. Harper?
00:56:35This is bad.
00:56:37Our partners are flooding us with messages.
00:56:39They're suspending contracts, pulling out of deals.
00:56:42Wait, what is happening?
00:56:43They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise because Julian Clark backed us.
00:56:48Now that he's gone, they don't trust us with their project.
00:56:51Julian.
00:56:54It's Julian again.
00:56:58It's nuts.
00:56:59It's true.
00:57:00They only gave us deals because of Julian.
00:57:05Julian!
00:57:05No, no, no, no.
00:57:06Sumina, please.
00:57:06Okay?
00:57:07They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off.
00:57:10Think about it.
00:57:11Okay?
00:57:11You know what?
00:57:12Just give you some time and I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:14I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:15I swear.
00:57:16Get away from me!
00:57:18You liar!
00:57:20You fraud, Damien!
00:57:21All those CEOs!
00:57:24They only had you pick up contracts from them.
00:57:26And you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:30I swear.
00:57:30I didn't know that they would.
00:57:33I swear.
00:57:35Get out of my sight.
00:57:36Now!
00:57:40What?
00:57:55I swear.
00:57:59I'm not going to pull out on your house.
00:58:08I feel like I'm standing at a point of my head.
00:58:16Without Julian, you're nothing.
00:58:28Dad warned you. Grandpa warned you.
00:58:32And you still wouldn't listen.
00:58:37You ignored everything Julian did and worshipped a con artist like Damien.
00:58:46Stupid.
00:58:56And now look at you. Projects gone. Company collapsing.
00:59:05Idiot. Arrogant. Stupid. Idiot.
00:59:11So stupid.
00:59:18Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:27Stop.
00:59:28Sweetie. Sweetie, listen.
00:59:31I know I messed up.
00:59:35Oh!
00:59:39Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:42I know, I know I'm as well.
00:59:44Look.
00:59:45Always damn Julian!
00:59:48Julian.
00:59:51Come back, okay?
00:59:54Please come back.
01:00:04You don't have to be scared.
01:00:07Harper Enterprise is business queen.
01:00:09So much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:11Once I lock her down, Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:17Damien!
01:00:18You sick bastard!
01:00:20You sick bastard!
01:00:25You really mean it.
01:00:27I love you.
01:00:28You fucking...
01:00:29Get off me!
01:00:30I'm telling you the truth!
01:00:31I mean it!
01:00:32Okay?
01:00:32I promise.
01:00:34I'll treat you well.
01:00:38You fucking monster dead!
01:00:40Get off me, please!
01:00:41I'm begging you, don't!
01:00:43Please, please.
01:00:44Say yes.
01:00:45Please.
01:00:45What are you doing?
01:00:50You fucking dead!
01:00:51Ashley, help me!
01:00:53I tried being nice to you.
01:00:55I fucking tried!
01:00:56But you keep biting me back!
01:00:59Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:00Keep fucking screaming!
01:01:02Right?
01:01:04You're not gonna say no.
01:01:06I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:07Help!
01:01:09Help!
01:01:11Julian.
01:01:12Julian!
01:01:13Help!
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!
01:01:29Thank God you came and you had like...
01:01:31We are not that close.
01:01:35I was just passing through.
01:01:36I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:01:39You.
01:01:39Wait.
01:01:39I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:42Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:43Yes, sir.
01:01:46Julian.
01:01:47I am sorry.
01:01:49I know.
01:01:50I was wrong.
01:01:52Just...
01:01:53Please come back.
01:01:54Julian!
01:01:56Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:01:58Let's go.
01:02:06Serena.
01:02:07Serena.
01:02:08I told you.
01:02:10Over and over and over again.
01:02:15That Damien was not a good man.
01:02:17And you refused to listen.
01:02:21And Julian.
01:02:22If Julian doesn't come along, just at the right time.
01:02:25Oh my God.
01:02:27I can't even...
01:02:28I 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.
01:02:36Grandpa.

01:14:19you just got engaged
01:14:21and you're getting married next week
01:14:24let's see
01:14:25you'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
01:14:33and 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
01:14:41and treating Julian like a lifeboat
01:14:44I have to move fast
01:14:46if
01:14:47they start begging
01:14:49what if Julian hesitates
01:14:52but Julian and Serena were forced into that
01:14:54there's no real love
01:14:56why will Julian hesitate
01:14:57what are you afraid of
01:14:59you 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
01:15:07then why
01:15:10because Serena
01:15:13is his type
01:15:15wait what
01:15:18I am Julian's type
01:15:21no way
01:15:23I'm serious
01:15:24the girls Julian liked growing up
01:15:27that exact time
01:15:29I mean
01:15:30with his personality
01:15:32even if his grandfather forced him
01:15:34he would have stayed there for three days max
01:15:36and then vanished
01:15:37he would not stay there
01:15:40and take six months of humiliation
01:15:42if he didn't want it to
01:15:43that's
01:15:44Julian Clark
01:15:45so that's why
01:15:47Serena must have destroyed him
01:15:49I have to get married
01:15:51fast
01:15:52I cannot give her a single chance
01:15:55so that's what it was

01:22:5515 years, wow. Congratulations.
01:22:58You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:04You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:07You've seen how you all work.
01:23:08Mr. Clark, bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:18I think you want to be able to smile.
01:23:20So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms, and once you sign them, hand over your badges,
01:23:28or you're going to rob him, Jim.
01:23:32This, this is it.
01:23:47Are you satisfied now?
01:23:50Satisfied?
01:23:52Thomas 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.
01:24:01Julian!
01:24:04If 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.
01:24:25I won't accept it.
01:24:28Julian, watch out!
01:24:29Julian!
01:24:34Let me go!
01:24:35Fucking let me go!
01:24:36I already spared you.
01:24:38You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:40Take 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!
01:24:48Now, fight me!
01:24:49101!
01:24:49101!
01:24:50Let the guards go!
01:24:51You don't have the fucking guts to you!
01:24:56Hey, Julian.
01:24:58What was that?
01:25:00Just 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!
01:25:16I was wrong!
01:25:17I was wrong!
01:25:19Julian!
