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 our situation.
00:00:11Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:14Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:16Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:21No, you have to.
00:00:21I need you to buy the stock, or I'll only get the dollar.
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.
00:01:12I 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 would 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 and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:19Let'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 this one 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 of Serena to get him fired.
00:02:45Hello?
00:02:46Is 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.
00:03:07Julian.
00:03:09The company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:14Keep sharing.
00:03:14I'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, let's 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 the 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?
00:04:01Well...
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:06Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:09Alright.
00:04:09So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:13the countermeasures for a potential proxies fight,
00:04:15or which SCC 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 the real.
00:04:37You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:42You know what, Clark?
00:04:43You'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.
00:05:05Well, hearing's not enough.
00:05:06I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:09Now.
00:05:13You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:19You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:21Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:24Harpers are 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 back.
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.
00:05:53Go work with Serena.
00:05:55And date her properly, hmm?
00:05:59You 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.
00:06:09Alright.
00:06:10I'll go.
00:06:12I know when I pass, okay?
00:06:15For years, you've carried this family on your bed.
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.
00:06:29Enough of them.
00:06:31Please.
00:06:32For 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, using 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, pathetic.
00:07:15I said you're fired.
00:07:16Get your shit and get the fuck out of my throat.
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 no!
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, not 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?
00:07:48Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:56You!
00:07:57Don'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.
00:08:04And 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 you know, Beyoncé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:14So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking report what?
00:08:26You're broken.
00:08:27You're broke my teeth.
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 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.
00:08:49Now 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.
00:09:05Okay.
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 could fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:18A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:21He 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?
00:09:36Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:38And 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.
00:10:14I 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 in a private army?
00:10:27All right, Julian.
00:10:28The 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.
00:10:35We are done.
00:10:36You sure?
00:10:37Whoa, whoa. You heard that, Julian?
00:10:39Your engagement's over.
00:10:41Now get out before I-
00:10:42Bro, get 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-
00:10:51Fucking look off your face!
00:10:56Enough!
00:11:01Mr. Brooks!
00:11:05That's David Brooks, president of Harveyview Bank.
00:11:07What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:10Do 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, the one million, as requested.
00:11:40What?
00:11:43Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash? To Julian?
00:11:47Wait.
00:11:48The money is...
00:11:49It's real?
00:11:50Wait.
00:11:52Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:53I mean...
00:11:54Wait.
00:11:54Who are you?
00:11:58Much appreciated.
00:11:59You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:07Mr. Brooks!
00:12:08Sir.
00:12:09We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:12My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:14I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:18Mr. Clark, is there anything else you require?
00:12:22My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:24No, thank you.
00:12:25You can go down.
00:12:26Of course.
00:12:34A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:38Unprofessional.
00:12:40I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:42We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:45Yes, sir.
00:12:47Mr. Brooks, I...
00:12:51Damien 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.
00:12:57This is all your fault, alright?
00:12:59You gotta fix this.
00:13:00You call him back here and get that loan reinstated or I swear I'm gonna...
00:13:03The other 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.
00:13:20Son 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.
00:13:34But it's all mine now.
00:13:35Yeah, sure. The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:38But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:40Not that useless piece of junk?
00:13:41How much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:43Oh.
00:13:43I don't know.
00:13:44Maybe about...
00:13:46A hundred million?
00:13:47A hundred million dollars!
00:13:52For 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.
00:14:03What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:05That's illegal!
00:14:06So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:10By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:12Huh?
00:14:13Ask conservatives.
00:14:14Enough!
00:14:16Julian.
00:14:17You know, I know you think you're right, but a Stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars.
00:14:24A hundred million dollars?
00:14:25I...
00:14:26Dream on.
00:14:27Sure, a standard Stellar isn't worth that much, but this isn't a standard.
00:14:32What is it made of gold?
00:14:33Even 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 Billy Sullivan.
00:14:50SVP for Stellar.
00:14:51Here?
00:14:52You think he's about the $300 million partner you should do?
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?
00:15:01Mr. Sullivan.
00:15:03What an unexpected honor.
00:15:04I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO.
00:15:07What do we owe the...
00:15:08Mr. Clark.
00:15:09The security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:12And the signal originated here.
00:15:14You have a concern for your safety and care immediately.
00:15:17Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:18Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm.
00:15:22Unbelievable.
00:15:23Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:25Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:25It just took a fall.
00:15:28God.
00:15:29This damage is significant.
00:15:31With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be $30 million.
00:15:39$30 million?
00:15:41No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:41To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:43That's impossible!
00:15:45There's no way!
00:15:45Are you questioning me?
00:15:47No, I just...
00:15:48Well, open your eyes.
00:15:49This 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.
00:16:01It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:05I mean, with our declarations, this is at least $70 million.
00:16:11That's $70 million?!
00:16:13Mr. Clark has data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:19All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:22Here.
00:16:23Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:27See for yourself.
00:16:37Who 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?
00:16:54This is a fucking scam.
00:16:55These two, they're working together.
00:16:56I'm telling you, it's a con!
00:16:58Are 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...
00:17:07Ms. 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.
00:17:19What?!
00:17:19Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:22Damien 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.
00:17:33My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:36I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:40Still, his 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.
00:17:53So, may I help?
00:17:54Please.
00:17:59Please.
00:18:03Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:07Will that suffice?
00:18:09I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:11You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:16Full 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.
00:18:26I'll do.
00:18:27Mr. Sullivan, are our partners-
00:18:28Miss Harper, get your house in order first.
00:18:32Stellar has standards.
00:18:33We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:36That'll be all.
00:18:37Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:38That's funny.
00:18:40Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:41A 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.
00:18:50Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business.
00:18:54We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:57He's right.
00:18:59Julian, I give you my word.
00:19:00The full amount will be paid within three days, but under one condition.
00:19:04Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:07And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:10Now.
00:19:11You hear that, Julian?
00:19:12You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:13Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:14But 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!
00:19:22Get 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?
00:19:33Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:35He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:40Stop.
00:19:41Stop!
00:19:46This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:49Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:53Funny.
00:19:54Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:56Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:00You.
00:20:11Get the fuck out!
00:20:13Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:16This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:18I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:21Security, remove him.
00:20:25Julian, please.
00:20:27Don'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?
00:20:31Ha ha ha!
00:20:33Sharon Harper brought you in!
00:20:35Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:38Who 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.
00:20:44The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:49Do it.
00:20:53Looks like I won't need that phone call.
00:20:54Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:56Move. Get the fuck out of here.
00:20:58Hey!
00:21:03What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:05What problem?
00:21:07Stand down!
00:21:08All of you!
00:21:09You! Out of here!
00:21:10Now!
00:21:11Dad? Grandpa?
00:21:12What are you doing here?
00:21:19Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's gone on today.
00:21:23I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:28Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:32Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:36Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:39Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:43How could you possibly?
00:21:44Shut up!
00:21:52How dare you disrespect Julian!
00:21:56Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has!
00:21:58You can't just hit people!
00:21:59I wish we hit him more.
00:22:01Serena, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:06We didn't tell you everything because of your ego!
00:22:08And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:10We were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:14But who knew?
00:22:15Serena, you've been blind!
00:22:18Julian is-
00:22:19Thomas!
00:22:19You can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:21No real feelings.
00:22:22No need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:24Julian, please, understand.
00:22:27All of this is on us.
00:22:29Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harperfin.
00:22:33Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:35What?
00:22:39Apologize to Julian!
00:22:40Now!
00:22:41No!
00:22:42I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:45To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:50But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:55I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:22:59Serena!
00:23:00Enough!
00:23:01Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:03Let me apologize.
00:23:04Let's say that if Serena can't manage an apology herself, then I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:13Issue my order.
00:23:14Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:17Cease every protective measure, effective immediately!
00:23:20Julian!
00:23:21Please, don't!
00:23:22Without you, this place doesn't survive!
00:23:24Look!
00:23:27Oh!
00:23:28What?
00:23:33Oh, I guess you would've just pulled the orders!
00:23:35What do you mean, hostile takeover?
00:23:37All of our investors pulled out.
00:23:39How can that be?
00:23:44Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:49What?
00:23:50My entire division just stopped!
00:23:52We can't operate like this!
00:23:53A stunning reversal.
00:23:55Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant, leaving the group facing massive losses.
00:24:01Could it be all these months, the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:06Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:08Why did Harper Enterprise suddenly lose power?
00:24:11What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:14How is that possible?
00:24:17Are you attacking the company?
00:24:18No matter who is behind this, I, Sherita, will never bow down to you!
00:24:25Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks. Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:30Harper, this isn't a race! Our major partners are terminating their contracts! And our own liquidity can't cover the gas!
00:24:38If this continues, the stock will crash straight through the floor!
00:24:42What did you say?
00:24:44Damn it! How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:48Why him? I won't accept this! I won't!
00:24:50Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:56Apologize to Julian!
00:24:58No!
00:25:02Serena, apologize!
00:25:05Serena!
00:25:16Serena, Serena, do not apologize!
00:25:18Harper Enterprise is worth hundreds of billions of dollars!
00:25:21You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:24Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:28to you!
00:25:30No!
00:25:31Oh!
00:25:33Your fucking fault!
00:25:34You apologize to Julian right now!
00:25:36Get on your knees!
00:25:38Dad!
00:25:39Damien!
00:25:40Damien!
00:25:41Dad!
00:25:42Stop!
00:25:43Damien 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!
00:25:48Stay out of the way!
00:25:49No!
00:25:51You 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!
00:26:01I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me!
00:26:08Serena, that is enough!
00:26:09So wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:11What about this guy?
00:26:13What about him?
00:26:14He hides behind your name to steal other people's work!
00:26:16He throws tea on me in this very room!
00:26:19He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a $100,000 wash!
00:26:22Don't you think that's bullying?!
00:26:24Oh, I...
00:26:26But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:29Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:31You're just biased.
00:26:33You know, I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:37I have asked you out 37 times!
00:26:40Yeah, because I thought we should at least get to know each other!
00:26:42Every time I have asked you out, you said,
00:26:44I'm too busy with work.
00:26:46But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:48The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:26:51Listen to him sing your praises, right?!
00:26:55Who's that?
00:26:57Oh, let me guess.
00:26:58Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:02Just... ignore him.
00:27:04Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:07Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:10I just... I can't stand him.
00:27:13A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:18So what if I did?!
00:27:20Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice!
00:27:23We're engaged, not married!
00:27:25I can see whoever I want!
00:27:27Serena, shut up!
00:27:29No, I am not done!
00:27:32Damien has worked himself to the bone!
00:27:35He is driven and disciplined, and when Harper first went public,
00:27:39he was the key reason that we made it!
00:27:41If you had even half his talent, Julian,
00:27:44maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:47But you don't.
00:27:51Damien was the key reason you made it.
00:27:52That's your story, right?
00:27:54What is so funny?
00:27:55I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:27:59Do you know why, for the past six months,
00:28:01all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:04Why every deal that you liked happened to have closed?
00:28:07Why every time that you wanted a loan,
00:28:09the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:11Because Damien is brilliant!
00:28:13Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way!
00:28:16Damien? Brilliant?
00:28:17That was Julian!
00:28:20Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together!
00:28:25Serena!
00:28:26No, that is impossible!
00:28:28I don't believe it!
00:28:39Hey!
00:28:40Eyes up, Serena!
00:28:41In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections
00:28:44and cleared a path for you.
00:28:46Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange!
00:28:48And you know, I've made you Wall Street's business queen!
00:28:51That's Iron Gate, North Bridge, and even Silver Line!
00:28:54Those are all the top 50 global giants!
00:28:56They've all been begging us behind the scenes?
00:28:58No wonder every project went so smoothly!
00:29:01Julian's the one with this kind of network!
00:29:03Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this!
00:29:06That's a death wish!
00:29:10No, no, no, it's not true, huh?
00:29:12Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me,
00:29:15and my hard work and my connections!
00:29:17You perigate fool!
00:29:20Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:29All right, that's enough.
00:29:32I finally got the all clear for my grandfather, and I can go home.
00:29:35So, as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:38Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:41But the engagement...
00:29:43Let him go!
00:29:44I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:50Without my connections and my network,
00:29:53Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:55And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:29:59Wait, wait, wait!
00:30:00What?
00:30:02Prepare yourselves.
00:30:04Julian!
00:30:04Julian!
00:30:05Julian!
00:30:06Julian!
00:30:09Serena!
00:30:11You silly, foolish, foolish girl!
00:30:14Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:17With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:20Serena's right.
00:30:21Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper, I'm going to stand by Serena's side,
00:30:24and I'm going to give her everything that I've got.
00:30:27Crap!
00:30:28I ain't going to beat the crap out of you once and for all!
00:30:31Dad, that is enough!
00:30:33Dad?
00:30:35Grandpa?
00:30:36I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:38But I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:41And so will I.
00:30:44I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:30:49It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:52This meeting is over.
00:30:54Serena, wait up!
00:30:57You!
00:30:57Uh, tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:05Serena!
00:31:06Serena!
00:31:07Don't even worry about that.
00:31:08I know our Enterprise took a huge hit today,
00:31:10but as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake project,
00:31:13change the game,
00:31:14and everyone will still think that we're in control.
00:31:16Easy!
00:31:18The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:21If we can win that contract,
00:31:23we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:26Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before,
00:31:30and I'm going to put this one in your hands too.
00:31:33It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:34No, no, absolutely. You don't even count on me.
00:31:36Amber Group's deputy VP of projects.
00:31:39I mean, he trusts me clearly.
00:31:42He else has been his eyes.
00:31:50Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:52Same as always.
00:31:53Once the Harper team arrives,
00:31:55we hand it straight to them.
00:31:56Ms. Lawson, we just got an update.
00:31:58Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:01The engagement is off.
00:32:02Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:06Are you sure?
00:32:08Absolutely.
00:32:09Word is she listened to her assistant Damien
00:32:11who really stirred the pot
00:32:12and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:15Serena really thinks she got where she is because of Damien?
00:32:18That for your little lap dog?
00:32:20Then, do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:24Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:29Not a chance.
00:32:30Open it to public video.
00:32:31Yes, ma'am.
00:32:40Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:43Damien.
00:32:44Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:32:47How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:03Damien?
00:33:04What does this mean, huh?
00:33:06Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:10That's one million in clean crypto, untraceable.
00:33:15Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:19We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:22Oh my, Damien, you're too kind.
00:33:27Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:34Sit tight.
00:33:36Contract's yours.
00:33:39Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:46Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:34:14Well, um, Prince Julian.
00:34:19Part Serena kicked you out.
00:34:21Six months of hard work, down the drain.
00:34:25What does that feel?
00:34:27Oh, I see.
00:34:29So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit.
00:34:32Is that right?
00:34:33Of course.
00:34:34Not.
00:34:37I'm here to steal you.
00:34:40You see?
00:34:41Since your engagement is off, I was thinking, how about you consider me, huh?
00:34:52Guys like us, we don't get to escape alliances.
00:34:55Our families will bear us off either way, so...
00:34:59Why pick a stranger when there's someone who actually knows you?
00:35:05You see?
00:35:07Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school.
00:35:14We match.
00:35:16You know?
00:35:17We fit.
00:35:19Hang on.
00:35:20Nora, you're...
00:35:21Are you saying this because you're drunk, or do you...
00:35:31I'm not drunk.
00:35:33You're good.
00:35:34You don't have to answer me tonight.
00:35:36Just...
00:35:37Think about it.
00:35:38Hmm?
00:35:44I'm not drunk.
00:35:47Okay?
00:35:49You don't have to answer me tonight.
00:35:51Think about it.
00:35:51Hmm?
00:35:51I'm not drunk.
00:35:52Come, it's just the...
00:36:09I told you...
00:36:10It's not drunk.
00:36:11You're swimming soon, come off.
00:36:13Oh shit.
00:36:15I'm Tom.
00:36:17You're...
00:36:18Your swimming soon, come off.
00:36:19Oh shit.
00:36:21I'm Tom.
00:36:37Ms. Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO, allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:44Oh, I am so sorry. Bad timing. Truly terrible timing.
00:36:56Don't move. If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:01Aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines? Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:07Rumor to home is tomorrow's company's visibility, but I'm not letting the pictures of my breasts go through.
00:37:13Okay. Okay. But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night, I think my
00:37:25heart's going to sit by my chest.
00:37:39And suffer. Okay? If you push me, I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:51Please, just walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:37:56Okay.
00:38:08Speak of the devil, of all good times.
00:38:17No, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:20You know what I lost?
00:38:21Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:25Oh, wait.
00:38:28Well, well.
00:38:30I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time.
00:38:33Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all.
00:38:37Can I help you with something?
00:38:39Seriously? This woman's even better than Serena.
00:38:42How does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:45I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:47Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here, she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:53Whoring herself out like this?
00:38:56Let's be vaulted in here.
00:38:58Is that so?
00:38:59Now I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's christened project.
00:39:07What, you're bidding too?
00:39:08Yeah, I know you got connection and that's great, you know.
00:39:11But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:13Me, I got real talent, all right?
00:39:15And I'm gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:17You, you're just gonna fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:22Good luck.
00:39:34See that?
00:39:35That is a shameless whore.
00:39:38That woman seems familiar.
00:39:40Samantha, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:44All right, come on.
00:39:45Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:46Let's go socialize and maybe we'll run into the host of the party lost in yourself.
00:39:51And if we do, I'll make sure we're going to get a good impression.
00:40:11So that pretty boy Damien actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:17Tonight we're going to see who's really on top.
00:40:20Okay.
00:40:21Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:23What?
00:40:24You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:26Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:28But if you like glassy, I can do glassy.
00:40:33Oh, can you?
00:40:34You can do glassy?
00:40:35Miss Lawson, it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:43I'll let you get to it.
00:40:48Shall we?
00:41:05Julie.
00:41:09I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:10You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:15You know what?
00:41:16Mason Brooks, Amber Group's deputy VP of projects, already agreed to award the contract to Harper
00:41:22Enterprise.
00:41:24You can't win.
00:41:29I hear the Crescent Lake project is basically yours.
00:41:32Congratulations.
00:41:34Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street, and with Damien backing you up, it's unstoppable.
00:41:39When the two of you take off, don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:42Of course.
00:41:42You know, we're going to take care of you guys.
00:41:44Thank you so much.
00:41:52See that, Julian?
00:41:54Everybody already knows that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:57I suggest you walk out of here before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:42:00It's funny.
00:42:01You see, my Clark Group has deeper capital, better tech, and a stronger global record than
00:42:07Harper Enterprise.
00:42:07So, I'm just curious.
00:42:09Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:11He recognizes Damien's talent.
00:42:13Of course.
00:42:19I need to take this.
00:42:26Don't mind, Julian.
00:42:30What century are you living in?
00:42:32Hmm?
00:42:33You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:36Then what does?
00:42:38I ain't really that fucking stupid.
00:42:39Of course this.
00:42:43I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:46What do you have that's going to be that?
00:42:49You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:51That's impossible.
00:42:52He wouldn't dare.
00:42:54That's impossible.
00:42:55He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56Yeah, you want to understand the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:42:59But hey, you're a very lovely, beautiful escort.
00:43:03Why don't you do us all a favor?
00:43:04Get up on that stage and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:07Hey, hey, I'm going to tell you, you want to know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:13Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune,
00:43:19Capital Technology is useless.
00:43:23Fucking trash.
00:43:26Mason Brooks, you've got a lot in there.
00:43:28He's finished.
00:43:30Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:32Who the fuck is this?
00:43:34Who are you?
00:43:35What do you think?
00:43:35You're the Amber Group CEO or something?
00:43:39Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:40It's adorable, no?
00:43:41Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.
00:43:45Anti-anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:59What are you going to report, Mr. Brooks?
00:44:01Hmm?
00:44:05You hit me.
00:44:06You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:09I'm going to have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call.
00:44:15There he is.
00:44:15Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:17You're finished.
00:44:19Mr. Brooks.
00:44:21What do you mean my friend?
00:44:22There's a woman here.
00:44:23Says she's going to report to you.
00:44:25Come on, please, teach her a lesson.
00:44:26Oh, report me?
00:44:27Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:29This woman right here.
00:44:33Miss Loss?
00:44:34She's even quoted the anti-corruption code like she's somebody.
00:44:37Like, how fucking ridiculous.
00:44:39What?
00:44:40What?
00:44:44This can't be...
00:44:47Go ahead, laugh.
00:44:49Laugh some more.
00:44:50Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:51You'll say anything out loud.
00:44:53Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:54She's just some gold-dicking whore.
00:44:55I mean, even if she rats you out, who's going to believe this?
00:44:58Oh!
00:45:00Why are you hitting me?
00:45:01Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:02When did I ever take your money?
00:45:04I never took one cent.
00:45:07Say it again, and I'll bury you.
00:45:09Idiot!
00:45:10Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:12Mr. Losson, this Damien, he's a lunatic.
00:45:16He's making things up.
00:45:17Don't listen to him.
00:45:18I swear, I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:22Not once!
00:45:25Mr. Losson?
00:45:28No, no, wait.
00:45:29You're Noah Losson, Amber's group CEO?
00:45:32How is that possible?
00:45:33How is that fucking...
00:45:34Mr. Brooks!
00:45:35Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:37Thank you so much for awarding the Crescent Lake Project to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:41We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:45Stop!
00:45:46Shut the fuck up!
00:45:48When did I ever give you anything?
00:45:51Ms. Losson?
00:45:53These Harper Enterprise people, they're all out of their minds.
00:45:57They lie like the wind.
00:45:58I can't believe a word they say.
00:46:01Ms. Losson?
00:46:03Ms. Losson?
00:46:05She's Nora Losson?
00:46:10The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:12Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:14You can leave now.
00:46:18Ms. Losson, I am so sorry.
00:46:21Damien didn't know who you were, so he thought that you and Julian were being inappropriate.
00:46:27Um, but I'll make him apologize right now.
00:46:30He is blunt.
00:46:32Yes.
00:46:33But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:36Please.
00:46:37Give Harper Enterprise the contract, and I promise we will deliver results that satisfy you.
00:46:43Exceptional ability?
00:46:45Are you sure about that?
00:46:46Of course.
00:46:48If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him so many contracts before?
00:46:53You're about to find out.
00:47:00Damien?
00:47:02What does she mean?
00:47:04Oh, shit.
00:47:05I can't let her find out I secured every project right.
00:47:08So she's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:11So she wants revenge.
00:47:13So she's going to embarrass Harper Enterprise in front of everyone.
00:47:15So what we need to do is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:17Let's go.
00:47:18Go?
00:47:18So if we don't win Crescent Lake, Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:23Even if Miss Lawson is trying to punish us, we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:27Serena, please!
00:47:28Okay?
00:47:28I'm sorry.
00:47:30Here we go now.
00:47:31All right?
00:47:32I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones, but we need to go now.
00:47:34Come on.
00:47:35What is wrong with you today?
00:47:37Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:39I...
00:47:51You want to understand the rules on top there, sweetheart?
00:47:55Technology capital.
00:47:57Useless fucking trash.
00:48:00What?
00:48:01Shit!
00:48:01She actually recorded it?
00:48:03And escort.
00:48:04So why don't you do us all a nice little favor?
00:48:06Get up on that stage.
00:48:07Give us a nice little poll show.
00:48:11Who is that?
00:48:13He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?
00:48:16That's Damien Blackwell, Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.
00:48:19How do you not know him?
00:48:20All of the best Amber projects being sent to Harper Enterprise over the past six months,
00:48:25and now we know they were bought.
00:48:29That's not true.
00:48:30All of that's a lie.
00:48:31Just don't do that.
00:48:33Just turn it off.
00:48:34Turn it off right now!
00:48:35Stop him!
00:48:37Let go of me!
00:48:39Damien, you did this behind my back?
00:48:42This is your talent?
00:48:43Your ability?
00:48:45Yes, Damien, please just see us.
00:48:47Mr. Brooks is missing.
00:48:48What a fucking routine listening to Samuel.
00:48:50Who are you to say anything?
00:48:52What do you think, your Amber group CEO?
00:48:55Amber...
00:48:55Turn it off, please.
00:48:57Okay, okay.
00:48:59Miss Lawson, please just turn it off.
00:49:00Just, please stop it!
00:49:01Please!
00:49:02Please!
00:49:04Bribery is one thing, but mistaking Miss Lawson for an escort?
00:49:08A whore?
00:49:10He's fucking blind.
00:49:11The best part?
00:49:12He confessed right in front of her that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:16Genius!
00:49:17And Serena trusted him to be her assistant?
00:49:19I mean, what does that say about her judgment?
00:49:22Damien, you have disappointed me beyond words.
00:49:26Serena, I did it because I cared about you.
00:49:28Because I care about Harper Enterprise.
00:49:30Please, I'm happy.
00:49:30I'm telling you the truth.
00:49:32Enough.
00:49:33Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:35Mason Brooks, you're fired.
00:49:37Effective immediately.
00:49:40I'm done.
00:49:42The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:45Harper Enterprise is disqualified.
00:49:48Every single project Amber Group has done together with them will be suspended.
00:49:53The projects will be back for competitive bidding.
00:49:57No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:00Those projects are our next three years.
00:50:02They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:04Their lives are future.
00:50:06And why the person who hired Trash is called it talent?
00:50:11Real talent.
00:50:18Pathetic.
00:50:23Serena.
00:50:26Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:29Miss Lawson, wait.
00:50:30Serena!
00:50:39I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:50:43Asking for dinner isn't too much, right?
00:50:45Not at all.
00:50:47You pick.
00:50:48My treat.
00:50:49Generous.
00:50:50Let's go.
00:50:51Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:55Miss Lawson, Damien was wrong to bribe anyone, and I apologize on his behalf.
00:51:03Just please, give Harper Enterprise another chance.
00:51:07I will meet the highest standards.
00:51:10I will deliver a perfect result on every project.
00:51:13Perfect result?
00:51:14And what exactly guarantees that?
00:51:17Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:20Miss Lawson, Damien made a mistake.
00:51:24But his ability is exceptional.
00:51:28For six months, he managed every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly.
00:51:32No errors, no delays.
00:51:34If you don't pull this contract, I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:51:42Managed flawlessly?
00:51:43He's not the only empty suit here.
00:51:47You're too.
00:51:48Miss Lawson, you are crossing a line.
00:51:53I understand that you and Julian are close, and you want to get back at me for him.
00:51:59But humiliating someone like this, isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:02You really think I froze our cooperation because Damien, right, Mason?
00:52:08Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:09For six months, Harper Enterprise got everything it wanted from Ember Group.
00:52:17For one reason.
00:52:19Julian Clark.
00:52:21Damien has nothing to do with that.
00:52:24He was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts.
00:52:27What?
00:52:28When Julian was there, bribe or no bribe, Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway.
00:52:35But now, Julian's gone, so the special treatment is gone.
00:52:40Damien's little ribbing incident?
00:52:41It was just a convenient excuse to take everything back.
00:52:45Understand now?
00:52:50And about those flawless projects.
00:52:53Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because Damien is brilliant.
00:52:57It ran smoothly because Julian called every partner, every supplier, every gatekeeper, and cleared the path for you.
00:53:06Damien had nothing to do with that.
00:53:10No.
00:53:13That's not true.
00:53:14I don't believe it.
00:53:15You don't believe me?
00:53:16Then watch.
00:53:18Watch what happens when Julian leaves.
00:53:22Let's see if your exceptional Damien can keep everything perfect
00:53:25when Julian is not there to hold the world together for you.
00:53:31Come on, let's go.
00:53:39Julian, is what she's saying true?
00:53:43You were right about one thing, Serena.
00:53:45Julian and I are closer than you thought.
00:53:47Well, that's why it disgusts me watching him waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like you.
00:53:59Was I wrong?
00:54:00No, no, no, Serena, Serena.
00:54:01Do not listen to her nonsense.
00:54:03Harper's success is based off of my hard work.
00:54:06Okay, Nora Lawson, she's just attacking and slandering my name to defend.
00:54:11Julian, you have to believe me.
00:54:13Please, you have to understand.
00:54:14Because of you, Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:18Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:20Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse, and you're asking me to trust you?
00:54:25How?
00:54:26Tell me how.
00:54:27Please, just listen to me.
00:54:29Okay, yeah, we lost Amber, but we're not finished.
00:54:33I mean, we still have the partners and the CEOs.
00:54:35I mean, they love me.
00:54:36They absolutely love and adore me.
00:54:38I promise.
00:54:39You know what?
00:54:40Matter of fact, I'm going to call, and I'm going to get you some new projects right now.
00:54:47Hello, Mr. Foster.
00:54:48It's Damien here.
00:54:49I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids, and Harper Enterprise, you know, we would absolutely love.
00:54:55Harper Enterprise?
00:54:56Who the hell is that?
00:54:57Do you think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:01Uh, Mr. Foster, what do you mean?
00:55:05I, last time we spoke, you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise and that you would love to
00:55:10work together.
00:55:11Listen up.
00:55:12That's because Julian Clark was in your damn Enterprise.
00:55:15I was giving him respect.
00:55:17You don't flatter yourself, bunch of blind dumbasses.
00:55:21Call me again, and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:24So what really was Julian?
00:55:26No, no, that's not possible.
00:55:28I don't believe that.
00:55:30I don't.
00:55:31Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:32It's Damien.
00:55:33I was hoping to talk about future collaborations.
00:55:35Damien?
00:55:36You've got the fucking nerve to call me?
00:55:38I gave Harper Enterprise projects because of Mr. Clark, and then you turned around and claimed you closed the deal?
00:55:46Who gave you the audacity?
00:55:48Shameless trash?
00:55:52Miss Parker.
00:55:54Miss Parker, no.
00:55:55No, God damn it!
00:55:57No, I don't believe this.
00:55:59I don't believe this fucking Julian this whole fucking time.
00:56:02God damn it.
00:56:04Sorry, sorry.
00:56:06Hello.
00:56:07Mr. Turner, it's Damien.
00:56:09Damien, who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:11Calling me directly?
00:56:13Learned some manners.
00:56:16Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancee.
00:56:20I'm not, you bastard.
00:56:21Tooey.
00:56:23Mr. Turner?
00:56:25Mr. Turner, please.
00:56:29What the fuck is happening?
00:56:29What the fuck is happening?
00:56:35What the fuck is happening?
00:56:37Ms. Harper?
00:56:38This is bad.
00:56:39Our partners are flooding us with messages.
00:56:41They're suspending contracts, pulling out his deals.
00:56:44Wait, what is happening?
00:56:46They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise because Julian Clark backed us.
00:56:50Now that he's gone, they don't trust us with their project.
00:56:54Julian.
00:56:56It's Julian again.
00:57:01No, it's true.
00:57:03They only gave us deals because of Julian.
00:57:07Julian!
00:57:08No, no, no, no.
00:57:08Sumina, please.
00:57:09Okay?
00:57:10They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off.
00:57:12Think about it.
00:57:13Okay?
00:57:14You know what?
00:57:14Just give you some time and I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:17I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:18I swear.
00:57:18Get away from me!
00:57:21You liar!
00:57:22You fraud, Damien!
00:57:24All those CEOs!
00:57:26They only had you pick up contracts from them.
00:57:29And you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:32I swear.
00:57:33I didn't know that they would.
00:57:37Get out of my sight.
00:57:40Now!
00:57:42No!
00:57:59I was this close to locking Serena down.
00:58:02Stepping into the upper circle.
00:58:03I'm not letting it end like this.
00:58:10Serena, you really thought you were smart.
00:58:14But you're really just pathetic trash.
00:58:17Without Julian, you're nothing.
00:58:31Dad warned you.
00:58:33Grandpa warned you.
00:58:35And you still wouldn't listen.
00:58:40You ignored everything Julian did and worshipped a con artist like Damien.
00:58:57And now look at you.
00:59:01Projects gone.
00:59:04Company collapsing.
00:59:08Idiot.
00:59:09You arrogant, stupid, idiot.
00:59:14I'm so stupid.
00:59:20Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:29I'm so sorry.
00:59:31I'm so sorry.
00:59:31I'm so sorry.
00:59:34I know.
00:59:35I know I messed up.
00:59:37Oh!
00:59:41Julian.
00:59:42I'm sorry.
00:59:45I know.
00:59:46I know.
00:59:46I know.
00:59:46I was wrong.
00:59:47Look.
00:59:48Always damn Julian!
00:59:51Julian.
00:59:54Come back, okay?
00:59:56Please come back.
01:00:02Okay, I'm back.
01:00:07You don't have to be scared.
01:00:10Harper Enterprise is business, queen.
01:00:12So much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:14Once I lock her down, Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:19Damien!
01:00:20You sick bastard!
01:00:23You sick bastard!
01:00:28I really mean it.
01:00:30I love you.
01:00:31You fucking...
01:00:32I'm telling you the truth!
01:00:34I mean it!
01:00:34Okay?
01:00:35I promise.
01:00:36I'll treat you well.
01:00:41You fucking monster!
01:00:42Dad, get off me, please!
01:00:44I'm begging you, don't!
01:00:46Please, please, say yes.
01:00:48What did I do?
01:00:53Help me!
01:00:54Help me!
01:00:54Help me!
01:00:56I tried being nice to you.
01:00:57I fucking tried!
01:00:59But you keep fighting me back!
01:01:00Help!
01:01:01Help!
01:01:02I keep screaming, huh?
01:01:03I keep fucking screaming!
01:01:05Right?
01:01:06You're not gonna say no.
01:01:08I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:10Help!
01:01:12Help!
01:01:14I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:15I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:17Help!
01:01:18Help!
01:01:19Get him outta here!
01:01:21Stop!
01:01:21Let me go!
01:01:23Help!
01:01:25Help!
01:01:25This isn't over!
01:01:26This isn't over!
01:01:30This isn't over!
01:01:32Thank God you came and you had like-
01:01:34We are not that close.
01:01:38I was just passing through.
01:01:39I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:01:42You.
01:01:42I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:44Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:46Yes, sir.
01:01:48Oh, oh, oh.
01:01:49Julian.
01:01:50I am sorry.
01:01:52I know.
01:01:53I was wrong.
01:01:54I just...
01:01:56Please come back.
01:01:57Julian!
01:01:59Our reservation is in 10 minutes.
01:02:00Let's go.
01:02:10Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man and you
01:02:21refused to listen.
01:02:23And Julian, if Julian doesn't come along just at the right time, oh my God, I can't even
01:02:31I can't even think about it.
01:02:33If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours, one day, you live to regret it.
01:02:39Dad, Grandpa, please stop.
01:02:41I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:45I'll apologize to Julian and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:52The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:02:58Grandpa, don't worry.
01:03:02I will apologize properly and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:07That's all we can do.
01:03:10So, John, put out a citywide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:17He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:20We're not letting that go.
01:03:23No, we're not.
01:03:25Understood.
01:03:57Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:03What is this supposed to be?
01:04:05A gift for you.
01:04:08Myself.
01:04:10I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:12Amber group backs you up.
01:04:14No questions asked.
01:04:16But first, you have to accept the gift properly.
01:04:29Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:33You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:36You know, a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped and any man would have, you know, housed me
01:04:42by now.
01:04:44Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:47Hung up?
01:04:49You're not going to be hung up on Serena.
01:04:51She and I were never romantic.
01:04:54No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:04:58Things are moving too fast.
01:05:00You gotta think twice.
01:05:01But I don't have time.
01:05:04My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:09Some old money.
01:05:11Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:14Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:15Are you serious?
01:05:16Yes, Julian.
01:05:18My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:23But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:25I want you.
01:05:26I love you.
01:05:29Julian...
01:05:30Let's make it official.
01:05:33Let's get married.
01:05:36You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:43Please, Julian.
01:05:54Okay.
01:05:56I'll marry you.
01:05:58Are you serious?
01:05:59No take backs.
01:06:01No take backs.
01:06:02Ever.
01:06:02Ever.
01:06:03I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:06But can you help me out?
01:06:09Um, my hands are getting hurt.
01:06:13So impatient.
01:06:17It's like you said, if I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:29Then be gentle.
01:06:30Then be gentle.
01:06:38Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:44Uh, no.
01:06:45Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:47Of course I remember that.
01:06:49You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, kind of, you kind of remember that for the rest of
01:06:54your life.
01:06:54Details.
01:06:56Those are just tiny details.
01:07:00Look like big details to me.
01:07:06Julian, can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:09Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:12Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:13I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:15I misjudged everything.
01:07:17Please, just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:21And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:24I'll do anything.
01:07:25I'm sorry.
01:07:26I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:31Boyfriend?
01:07:37Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:40Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:43And yet you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:47He asked you out 37 times.
01:07:49So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:53Hmm?
01:07:55Men like him?
01:07:57If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:02Listen carefully.
01:08:03We are together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:06If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:12Come on.
01:08:13We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:16Let's not be late.
01:08:17Wedding outfits.
01:08:20Let's go.
01:08:26Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:35So how did it go?
01:08:37Julian?
01:08:38He's with Nora.
01:08:44Nora.
01:08:45Nora Lawson.
01:08:46CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:49Of course.
01:08:50You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:08:54The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:08:58You don't get another chance.
01:09:00God gave our family a chance.
01:09:01And we blew it.
01:09:04God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:07Please.
01:09:09Miss Harper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:13Harper Enterprises' cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:16If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:22Great.
01:09:23Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:27That was going to lend to us now.
01:09:28How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:30This is my fault, okay?
01:09:33I was blind.
01:09:34Are you proud now?
01:09:36I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:40I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:45And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:49Dad.
01:09:50Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:09:53I ruined Harper Enterprise.
01:09:56I ruined everything.
01:09:58Dad.
01:09:59You're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:03So maybe you should go talk to him.
01:10:05And see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:08Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:10Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:12If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:15Clark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:18Yes.
01:10:19They honored our engagement.
01:10:22And that was a mercy.
01:10:24That was a blessing.
01:10:26But you threw it away.
01:10:30Still.
01:10:32For your sake and for your future.
01:10:34And for our future.
01:10:37We'll fight.
01:10:44Serena.
01:10:46When you see Julian's grandfather.
01:10:49Your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:53If he forgives you, only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:00Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:02For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:20Welcome.
01:11:21You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:26Perfect timing.
01:11:27They're just about to start.
01:11:29Engagement party?
01:11:31So they're really engaged?
01:11:34Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:38What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:40Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born.
01:11:44And everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married.
01:11:47Oh, oh, I see.
01:11:50You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:53Then please leave.
01:11:56Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:11:58Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:12:03If there's an engagement party,
01:12:05that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:11And that means we're done.
01:12:15There's no more chances left.
01:12:17We're leaving.
01:12:19Is this my punishment?
01:12:22All right, everyone.
01:12:24Big smiles.
01:12:28Woo!
01:12:41Julian, are you okay?
01:12:44Hey.
01:12:46Hey.
01:12:47Hey.
01:12:50What is it?
01:12:51Oh, it's nothing.
01:12:53Come on.
01:12:53Dinner's almost ready.
01:13:08Dad.
01:13:09The Harpers.
01:13:11My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:16For him,
01:13:17he was six months at Harper Enterprise.
01:13:20It was a total humiliation.
01:13:24We've shown that Harper had more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:29Understood, Dad.
01:13:38Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:40Stop.
01:13:40You can't drink this away.
01:13:42Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:45If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:48Guys, just leave me the fuck alone.
01:13:51Okay?
01:13:52Just let me drink.
01:13:53I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:55I, Red Tarper Enterprise.
01:13:57No, you...
01:14:00All right, I've got to take this.
01:14:02Don't move.
01:14:03I'll be right back,
01:14:04and then I am taking you home.
01:14:07Hello?
01:14:15Laura.
01:14:18Okay, Laura.
01:14:19Be honest.
01:14:21You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:23You just got engaged,
01:14:25and you're getting married next week?
01:14:27Let's see.
01:14:28You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:31You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:33I've liked Julian for 20 years,
01:14:36and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:38You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:14:40Lock it down from what?
01:14:41From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:43They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:47But I have to move fast.
01:14:49If they start begging,
01:14:53what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:55But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:14:58There's no real love.
01:14:59Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:01What are you afraid of?
01:15:03You don't get it.
01:15:05Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:08and it wasn't just because his grandfather would order it.
01:15:11Then why?
01:15:14Because Serena...
01:15:17is his type.
01:15:18Wait, what?
01:15:21I am Julian's type?
01:15:25No way!
01:15:27I'm serious.
01:15:28The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:31That exact type.
01:15:33I mean, with his personality,
01:15:36even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:38he would have stayed there for three days max,
01:15:40and then vanished.
01:15:41He would not stay there
01:15:43and take six months of humiliation
01:15:45if he didn't want it to.
01:15:47That's...
01:15:48Julian Clark.
01:15:49So that's why?
01:15:51Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:53I have to get married.
01:15:54Fast.
01:15:55I cannot give her a single chance.
01:15:58So that's what it was.
01:16:00Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:02because I'm his type.
01:16:04He likes me.
01:16:05That means I still have a chance.
01:16:08I still have a chance.
01:16:10This is my last shot.
01:16:11I am not wasting it.
01:16:19Where is she?
01:16:26Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:28let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:30Let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:43Wow.
01:16:44They look perfect together.
01:16:46They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:47The whole fantasy.
01:16:48Oh, my God.
01:16:49Brilliant.
01:16:52And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:07Kate!
01:17:13Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:17Who is that?
01:17:18Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:20CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:22You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:25and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:27Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:31Pathetic.
01:17:32Wait!
01:17:33Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:39Julian, I know you like me.
01:17:41You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:50I know.
01:17:51I was wrong.
01:17:52Totally wrong.
01:17:53Okay?
01:17:54Just please.
01:17:55Give me another chance.
01:17:59Our engagement is over.
01:18:02In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:05Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:06Have some dignity.
01:18:08In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:10No, please.
01:18:11I'll do anything.
01:18:13Just...
01:18:17I know.
01:18:19You hate me.
01:18:20Because I rejected you 37 times.
01:18:23But I'll make it up to you.
01:18:26I'll chase you 37 times.
01:18:28370 times.
01:18:29Whatever it did.
01:18:31Can we please get her out?
01:18:32No, don't touch me!
01:18:34Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:36I know you like me.
01:18:38So why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:40Why?
01:18:45Simple question.
01:18:47Do you love me?
01:18:51I...
01:18:51Exactly.
01:18:52You don't.
01:18:53You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:55You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:18:58See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:02You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:07No, that...
01:19:09That's not true.
01:19:11Just please.
01:19:13Listen.
01:19:13Please, listen.
01:19:14Enough.
01:19:14Serena.
01:19:16When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise, do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:20Let me ask you this.
01:19:22If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed, if your value kept climbing, would you still be here standing in front of
01:19:28me today?
01:19:31I...
01:19:31No.
01:19:32I...
01:19:32No, you wouldn't.
01:19:33You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:34You'd be celebrating.
01:19:36You'd say that you earned the business queen crown.
01:19:39You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:41You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:44Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:46No.
01:19:48No, Julian.
01:19:50That's not me.
01:19:51Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:53You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:55But on my wedding day, you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:19:59Why?
01:19:59Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:02Your donor.
01:20:03Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:05But the moment I stop being useful, you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:10No.
01:20:12No, Julian.
01:20:14That is not true tonight.
01:20:16That you saved me from Damien.
01:20:19I...
01:20:20I felt something for you.
01:20:22I did.
01:20:23Stop.
01:20:24Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:26You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:28You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:30You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:33You know, I'll admit.
01:20:34When I met you, you were exactly my type.
01:20:38But once I got to know you, once I realized what you really are, all I felt was disgust.
01:20:46But Nora, she has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:54When I was sick, she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:20:59When I was at my lowest, she pulled me back up.
01:21:02Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement, she still supported me.
01:21:08She still took hits from me.
01:21:13So, let me ask you.
01:21:15Why would I give up all that for you?
01:21:20What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:25I...
01:21:26I...
01:21:26I...
01:21:27Get her out.
01:21:28No, no.
01:21:29No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:30Don't, don't.
01:21:32I'm begging you.
01:21:33Just please let me explain.
01:21:34Please.
01:21:35Please.
01:21:36Please.
01:21:36Please stop.
01:21:37Let me go.
01:21:38Julian, please don't.
01:21:40Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:42I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:43Turns out, she just realized without Julian, she can't stay on top.
01:21:48She used Julian's feelings like a weapon, totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:22:22Mr. Clark!
01:22:40I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:43Harper Enterprise, effective today, has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:47So, we're all being terminated.
01:22:50What?
01:22:52Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:54I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:57You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:22:5915 years, wow.
01:23:00Congratulations.
01:23:01You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a soup.
01:23:08You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:11I'm seeing how you all work.
01:23:12I'm sure.
01:23:14Bribes.
01:23:15Embezzlement.
01:23:18Kickbacks.
01:23:20Fraud.
01:23:22Everyone beat us a mile.
01:23:24So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms.
01:23:28And once you sign them, hand over your badges, or you're going to rob you.
01:23:33This, this is it.
01:23:51Are you satisfied, Mal?
01:23:54Satisfied?
01:23:55Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:57He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:02I saved you.
01:24:05Julian.
01:24:08If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:22Julian, why don't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:25I spent my whole life climbing upwards, and now I'm stuck at the bottom, hunted by cops.
01:24:29I won't accept it.
01:24:31Julian, watch out!
01:24:33Julian, let's go!
01:24:37Let me go!
01:24:39Fucking let me go!
01:24:40I already spared you.
01:24:41You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:44Yo, take him to the police.
01:24:45Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:46I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:47Fuck the coward.
01:24:48You're a fucking coward!
01:24:50Hiding behind your goddamn family's money.
01:24:51No, no, fight me.
01:24:52101.
01:24:53101, let the guards go!
01:24:54You don't have the fucking guts, do you?
01:25:00Hey, Julian.
01:25:02What was that?
01:25:04Just staking out the trash.
01:25:06Are you done here?
01:25:09No.
01:25:10Let's go.
01:25:17I was wrong!
01:25:19Julian, I was wrong!
01:25:22I was wrong!
01:25:50I was wrong!
01:25:53I was wrong!
01:25:53I was wrong!
