00:00:26Everything we need for the next 72 hours.
00:00:28It's liquid, untouchable.
00:00:32Derek has already started moving against you.
00:00:34Lining up investors, whispering about Apex's collapse.
00:00:37He wants to destroy you, Chris.
00:00:40Exactly how I planned.
00:00:42You can't bait a shark without a little blood in the water.
00:00:45I've already sent over the forged balance sheets.
00:00:47The fake foreclosure notices.
00:00:48Enough evidence to convince the world that Apex is circling the drain.
00:00:51He'll think he's scooped everyone.
00:00:53Good.
00:00:54Give him what he wants.
00:00:55The company on its knees.
00:00:56And while he gloats, we prepare the kill shot.
00:01:01The shareholder vote is in three days.
00:01:03When we move, Apex swallows Langford Capital whole.
00:01:06And when the dust settles, Derek won't just lose the company.
00:01:11He knows everything.
00:01:20What does it look like?
00:01:25What does it look like?
00:01:39Lord, today we are blessed beyond measure, not only because it is the day of your wedding,
00:01:45but because we are blessed with a son-in-law that is a CEO of Apex Group, a man of
00:01:49vision,
00:01:50a man of means.
00:01:51A billionaire who will protect our daughter and build our family legacy.
00:01:56Finally, the Donovan name will carry the weight that it deserves.
00:02:00To Sophia and to a future where we will want for nothing.
00:02:12Do you, Sophia Donovan, take Chris Bell to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:02:19I do.
00:02:21Then by the power vested in me, stop this wedding!
00:02:28Your billionaire groom is nothing but a fraud.
00:02:40Chris Bell, CEO of Apex Group?
00:02:44Right, try bankrupt loser.
00:02:48That's right.
00:02:49Apex Group is ruined.
00:02:52Sophia, you're about to marry a penniless con man.
00:02:58And I have the proof.
00:03:04It can't be true!
00:03:06What is going on here?
00:03:07I think I'm going to be sick!
00:03:08Gentlemen!
00:03:12Gentlemen!
00:03:12Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:03:13Wait!
00:03:14Oh my God!
00:03:15Help!
00:03:16By order of the court.
00:03:18No!
00:03:19Move!
00:03:20You fraud!
00:03:24And property of the bank.
00:03:28No!
00:03:29No!
00:03:30No!
00:03:36No!
00:03:40I don't have to.
00:03:41No!
00:03:41That cake costs more than your salary!
00:03:46Oh!
00:03:47Oh!
00:03:51Oh!
00:03:53Oh!
00:03:55Oh!
00:03:56Oh!
00:03:57Oh!
00:03:57Oh!
00:03:59Oh!
00:04:00Oh!
00:04:00Oh!
00:04:12Is it really true?
00:04:15Are you broke?
00:04:21I hate lying to her, but she can't know the truth.
00:04:24Not yet.
00:04:28Yes.
00:04:33Wedding is just such a nightmare.
00:04:34I need what a waste of an open bar.
00:04:36I can get one martini.
00:04:38It's embarrassing.
00:04:38I'm going to have to pay for this whole fucking thing.
00:04:42I tried to warn you.
00:04:43Chris was never the man he said he was.
00:04:45You don't have to go home to that deadbeat bum.
00:04:48You deserve better.
00:04:49You deserve someone who can actually take care of you.
00:04:51Not now, Derek.
00:04:52I just got married.
00:04:54Just think about it.
00:04:56You and me, we always made more sense.
00:05:00Sophia!
00:05:13Well, it worked.
00:05:14Still feels like I'm putting a knife on her back.
00:05:16No one can know that Apex is broke.
00:05:19Not even Sophia.
00:05:20And there's a bonus.
00:05:21If she stays with you on your penniless, you'll know she truly loves you.
00:05:24She's not a test, Victoria.
00:05:26She's my wife.
00:05:27Full, hostile takeover.
00:05:29We just need to wait 72 hours until the shareholder meeting.
00:05:32And when it lands, Derek won't know what's hidden.
00:05:38I can't tell her yet.
00:05:40Not until the takeover is complete.
00:05:42And our future is secure.
00:05:57You have some nerve walking in here.
00:06:00This is Sophia's home.
00:06:03She's my wife.
00:06:04Wife?
00:06:04You tricked her.
00:06:06You tricked all of us.
00:06:07You brought gifts.
00:06:08That makes you part of this family?
00:06:10Well, I thought since we'll be spending time together.
00:06:13This is rich.
00:06:14Correction, not rich.
00:06:15More like bankrupt.
00:06:17You think money is the most important thing, but it's not.
00:06:20Chris is a good person.
00:06:22He's honest, and he treats me with respect.
00:06:24All right, well, let's see what you brought us anyway.
00:06:26Just a couple tokens of my appreciation, Charlotte.
00:06:30I'm aware you like a nice glass of red before bed, so I got that from you.
00:06:34And Jack, this is a very rare book.
00:06:37I thought it would be good for your collection.
00:06:40Books?
00:06:41He brought us books?
00:06:42What are we supposed to do with a book, Chris?
00:06:44We're supposed to read our way out of debt?
00:06:46You could have brought Monopoly money.
00:06:48It's the same value.
00:06:51Not even French.
00:06:53California.
00:06:54This is bottom shelf swill.
00:06:59You know, I got that from a small vineyard.
00:07:01I thought you would appreciate the backstory.
00:07:04The backstory?
00:07:05We love stories.
00:07:06Like fairy tales.
00:07:08You mean like the fairy tale where you're a billionaire?
00:07:11Oh, I love that one.
00:07:12That's a good one.
00:07:14Oh, you're so funny.
00:07:23Burns well.
00:07:24Look at that.
00:07:34Thank you, John.
00:07:35Thank you, John.
00:07:46Nice.
00:07:48That seat is for family.
00:07:51What?
00:07:51He can sit at the end if he's so desperate to eat.
00:07:55I hope you don't mind scraps, champ.
00:07:57That's usually all that's left over when it gets to the end of the table.
00:07:59Especially after you.
00:08:00Rah, rah, rah, rah.
00:08:01Thanks.
00:08:05Sophia.
00:08:07You know, you could still get an annulment tonight.
00:08:12Oh, my dear, that is a brilliant idea.
00:08:14You know, I still have Judge Wagner on speed dial.
00:08:17I'll just give him a call.
00:08:18I bet he would be here in about ten minutes.
00:08:19Mom, please.
00:08:20What?
00:08:21Just put your phone in bed.
00:08:23Fine.
00:08:24But I don't see the point in waiting.
00:08:27Okay, everyone.
00:08:28To my beautiful Sophia.
00:08:29Sophia, you deserve the world.
00:08:32But instead, you got a pathetic drifter.
00:08:43It's good.
00:08:44It's a cab.
00:08:45Hey, handsome.
00:08:47Bottoms up.
00:08:52Bottoms up.
00:09:00I guess I should have gone with the white.
00:09:03Butterfingers.
00:09:06Would you all give it a rest already?
00:09:08Whoa.
00:09:08Excuse me.
00:09:09You brought him into our home.
00:09:11And the next thing you know, he's eating our food, fucking our sister, and asking for gas money.
00:09:18That is not a son-in-law.
00:09:20It's a parasite.
00:09:22Don't talk about my husband like that.
00:09:23He doesn't even have the guts to defend himself.
00:09:32Just eat.
00:09:34Please.
00:09:42What do you think you're doing?
00:09:48Sophia hasn't eaten much, so I thought I'd...
00:09:50Oh, the pauper is trying to play the provider now.
00:09:55Maybe your wife just lost her appetite because she married a stone bro shit heel.
00:10:00Don't strain yourself, Chris.
00:10:02You might pull a muscle trying to lift this chunk of protein.
00:10:06You know, Chris, the good food is for people that contribute.
00:10:09Not you, princess.
00:10:18Bon appΓ©tit.
00:10:24You sit under this room, eating our food, moving in and freeloading.
00:10:30What is it exactly that you bring to the table?
00:10:32Well, for one, I married your daughter.
00:10:42And what, you think that makes you automatically a part of this family?
00:10:46You think that marrying Sophia is some kind of gift to us?
00:10:49It's not a gift.
00:10:50It's a burden.
00:10:52It's a liability.
00:10:53It's a state.
00:10:54Please, Mom.
00:10:55Don't let him hear it.
00:10:56You want to be part of this family, then?
00:10:57You need to know your place.
00:10:59Because you're nobody's son-in-law.
00:11:01You're just a dog that we let in the back door.
00:11:05So go ahead, kid.
00:11:07Eat up.
00:11:08Woof, woof.
00:11:34That's a good boy.
00:11:42You know, Sun Tzu says patience is the key to victory, and I am a very patient man.
00:11:50Look at this guy.
00:11:51He doesn't even fight back.
00:11:52Not a word.
00:11:53It's because he knows it's true.
00:11:55He's nothing, just a worthless half-wit.
00:11:57To think my daughter is married to a man who can't even afford to buy her flowers, let alone
00:12:02put a roof over her head.
00:12:03Well, what can we have here, huh?
00:12:06The happy bride and her poor little groom.
00:12:09Derek, what a surprise.
00:12:11Well, you certainly have a hop in your step.
00:12:13Indeed I do.
00:12:15Lankford Capital just secured a quarter of a billion dollars in financing.
00:12:19Record profits.
00:12:20We're expanding faster than any other company on the market.
00:12:22Oh my god.
00:12:24A quarter billion?
00:12:25That's incredible.
00:12:25We're just getting started.
00:12:27By next spring, Lankford Capital will be the biggest and the best private equity fund
00:12:32in the country.
00:12:33Especially with Apex Groups circling the drain.
00:12:36Isn't that right, Chris?
00:12:40Imagine if Sophia married Derek.
00:12:43I think about that.
00:12:45Every single day.
00:12:46Mom, you were thrilled when I married Chris this morning.
00:12:48Yes, I was.
00:12:49But secretly, I was hoping you'd end up with Derek.
00:12:54I'll tell you what.
00:12:55Family sticks together.
00:12:56Tom, we're hiring brilliant minds over at Lankford Capital.
00:12:59And I have just the position for you.
00:13:01How about head of the Strategic Wealth Fund?
00:13:06You hear that?
00:13:07That is what a son-in-law does.
00:13:10He builds.
00:13:11He protects.
00:13:12He provides.
00:13:13And he doesn't lie to you.
00:13:16Sneaking up, it's not too late.
00:13:19You can still fix it.
00:13:23Just annul the marriage.
00:13:25And walk away.
00:13:27I already told you.
00:13:29I don't wanna hear it!
00:13:31You will sign this paper and annul this marriage.
00:13:38Mom, please, sign it!
00:13:41You will not drag the Donovan family down with you!
00:13:46Mom, stop!
00:13:46Sign the divorce papers!
00:13:49And annul this marriage now!
00:14:01Oh!
00:14:02Jack!
00:14:03Oh!
00:14:03Oh my god!
00:14:04Jack!
00:14:08Somebody do something!
00:14:11Oh my god!
00:14:12You're texting while my father is having a heart attack?
00:14:15He's probably texting his side piece already.
00:14:17I have been worried about Jack for a long time.
00:14:19So for the past six months, I've been working with specialists at Apex to try to find a cure.
00:14:23Oh, right.
00:14:24Because Apex is some kind of, like, magic shop now.
00:14:26What's next, Chris?
00:14:27You're gonna try to sell us unicorn tears in a jar?
00:14:30You can laugh all you want, but this could be the only thing that can actually cure him.
00:14:32This isn't some medical breakthrough.
00:14:35This is all about your ego.
00:14:37Because you cannot stand the fact that we all know that you are useless, so you just make up fantasies.
00:14:44I mean, what is next, Chris?
00:14:46You're gonna sprinkle fairiness on my father and tell us that he's healed?
00:14:49What, are you just gonna bring him over to the garage and hook him up to jumper cables?
00:14:52You're a fraud, and you always have been.
00:14:54If you lay a finger on him, you'll kill him faster than the disease itself.
00:14:59I've also been sending messages to someone who actually knows what they're doing.
00:15:03Dean Hargrove, chief of medicine over at Crestview Hospital.
00:15:07A real doctor with real credentials.
00:15:09And expensive.
00:15:10But he's worth it.
00:15:12Because unlike your made-up magical cure, he's not gonna kill my father.
00:15:17That's what a real son-in-law does.
00:15:19He is generous, and he is serious about family.
00:15:24Unlike this twisted truth, fucker.
00:15:27You think your limp dick husband is gonna compete with that?
00:15:30Please.
00:15:31This isn't a competition. I just want Jack to get better.
00:15:34It's not a competition.
00:15:36Oh.
00:15:38You just want Jack to get better, do you?
00:15:41Well, why don't you try this?
00:15:43Oh!
00:15:45Yay, finally some real entertainment.
00:15:47Yeah, maybe that'll shut him up.
00:15:49What is the matter with you?
00:15:50He is just a deadbeat grifter.
00:15:53He needs to get out of this house.
00:15:54Yeah, and he's as welcome as a turd in the family Punchbowl.
00:15:57Yeah, and the sooner you realize that, the sooner we can all move on.
00:16:03Oh, that must be Dr. Hargrove.
00:16:13Dr. Hargrove, Chief of Medicine at Crestview Medical.
00:16:18Only the best for my Jack and his family.
00:16:21Doctor, thank you so much for coming to our family.
00:16:24We know how precious your time is.
00:16:26When it comes to family health, nothing is more important.
00:16:28You hear that? Nothing's more important than family.
00:16:31A real doctor, unlike your, uh, snake oil, hm?
00:16:35It's a real doctor.
00:16:37So why don't you just take your lies and get the hell out of this house?
00:16:43Listen, I think so too.
00:16:45I'm afraid I've got some bad news.
00:16:53Jack's condition has advanced.
00:16:55Oh my God.
00:16:56His lungs are weak.
00:16:58Circulation is very poor.
00:16:59He might only have a couple of weeks to maybe a few months.
00:17:03Oh my God.
00:17:03Right now, I can only suggest palliative measures.
00:17:06Palliative?
00:17:07You mean there's-
00:17:08There's nothing medicine can do.
00:17:09I'm sorry.
00:17:11Just cherish the time that you still have with him.
00:17:13And you!
00:17:16Trying to use my father as a guinea pig for your Frankenstein cure!
00:17:19We're only gonna kill him faster!
00:17:23Dr. Hargrove, help!
00:17:28He's crashing.
00:17:29We don't have time.
00:17:30I can't breathe.
00:17:31Do something if you are such a genius!
00:17:39Just in time.
00:18:00What is this circus?
00:18:05And what the hell is that?
00:18:07I built Apex on breakthroughs to the rest of the world, thought where possible.
00:18:10This vial right here is the first drug of its kind, developed by a team of specialists for one man's
00:18:15condition.
00:18:17Jack's.
00:18:17The old man needs a miracle, not some science fiction on a goddamn needle.
00:18:21Or this is his endgame.
00:18:24You kill him and then you inherit Sophia without all the trouble.
00:18:27You are not sticking that needle anywhere near my husband, over my dead body.
00:18:34Chris, please.
00:18:36You have two, maybe three minutes left unless you let me help you right now.
00:18:43Jack.
00:18:45Help me.
00:18:46If this kills him, I will kill you.
00:18:49Are you sure about this?
00:18:51I wouldn't risk it if I wasn't.
00:18:54Trust me.
00:18:54Do it.
00:18:55Doc.
00:18:56Okay.
00:19:06Jack.
00:19:08Okay, Jack.
00:19:10Jack.
00:19:11Jack.
00:19:13Jack.
00:19:14Jack.
00:19:23Jack.
00:19:35Jack.
00:19:37Jack.
00:19:38Jack.
00:19:38Jack.
00:19:39Jack.
00:19:40Jack.
00:19:42Jack.
00:19:43Jack.
00:19:44Jack.
00:19:45Jack.
00:19:45Jack.
00:19:47Jack.
00:19:47Jack.
00:19:52Jack.
00:19:53take that as a thank you. Jack, get some rest. I'll leave a monitor here overnight and check
00:19:59on you in the morning. Thank you, Dr. Hargrove. It's okay. Oh, back, sweetie. Babe, didn't you say
00:20:11that you had some special surprise in the car for a match? Yes, yes, I did, my favorite little guy.
00:20:16Max, let's go. Come on, buddy. It's enough doom and gloom around here. It's time for this family
00:20:22to have some fun and for you to finally see how a real man provides for his family.
00:20:33Limited edition, custom-in-law. You can only get one of these if you know somebody. Go get it, tiger.
00:20:42Wow, Max, I can first spin. You see, Chris, this is what a real son-in-law does. He provides
00:20:51status, toys, and joy. Boy's got a left foot on the pedal. I'm sorry, Chris. Everyone
00:20:57will come round. I'll make it up to yourself. I promise. It won't be like this for long.
00:21:01Face it, Chris, you could literally never get anything like this for your kid. Well,
00:21:06unless he found an abandoned one at the thrift store he shops at. Ooh, baby, look how fast
00:21:11he's going. That's my boy. Hey, Victoria, I need you to do me one more favor. This looks
00:21:22so cool. I'm so cute. Only the best for my boy.
00:21:29Wow. It's like David.
00:21:35Yeah. Arriving now, boss. Thanks, Vic.
00:21:39Quick announcement, everyone. I have a surprise for you all outside.
00:21:42Oh, yeah? What is it? A coupon for a half-half pizza?
00:21:45Maybe it's a pawn shop conca truck.
00:21:48You know, that's something money can't buy.
00:21:56Max, come on. All right. Let's go, Max.
00:21:58Let's go take this baby girl.
00:22:01Let's go, Max.
00:22:04Look at him go.
00:22:05Let's go, Max.
00:22:07Oh, my God.
00:22:08Oh, that has to be fake.
00:22:10No one would let a child play with something like that.
00:22:13What am I looking at?
00:22:14The fleet of top-of-the-line prototypes.
00:22:15Fully safe. Fully licensed.
00:22:17The only one of its kind in the country.
00:22:19You do expect us to believe that he could afford to bring something like this to our house?
00:22:24It's pretty neat, huh?
00:22:25This is a cool scene. That can happen.
00:22:28What? No, no.
00:22:29You know, Max, don't get too excited.
00:22:31Yeah.
00:22:31They're knockoffs.
00:22:33Cheap imports made to look expensive.
00:22:35Yeah, it happens all the time.
00:22:36They're probably defective, sweetie.
00:22:38Max, Max.
00:22:38And yet, he parades it on my front lawn in some kind of pathetic attempt to convince us that he's
00:22:45some powerful big shot.
00:22:46Chris, how did you afford this?
00:22:49It must have cost millions of dollars.
00:22:51Yeah, Chris.
00:22:52Are you actually bankrupt or are you just putting on some sort of BS act?
00:22:57Are you actually bankrupt or are you just putting on some sort of BS act?
00:23:01Damn it.
00:23:03I overplayed my hand.
00:23:04Showing off a fleet of DARPA prototypes was a bad move.
00:23:08I didn't buy them.
00:23:10I borrowed them from a friend.
00:23:11They're on loan from a defense contractor I did some consulting for.
00:23:17Chris, you don't have to keep doing this.
00:23:19Trying to prove yourself to my family.
00:23:21Let them think whatever they want.
00:23:23The more they underestimate me, the better.
00:23:29I didn't see it before.
00:23:31Now, it's clear as day.
00:23:33You're a real con man, aren't you, Chris?
00:23:35Just squirreling away whatever scraps of money you can find and then just linging it at gadgets.
00:23:42Mom.
00:23:42No, Sophia.
00:23:43Look at us.
00:23:44My husband is sick.
00:23:45This house is bleeding us dry.
00:23:48And you, instead of improving her station in life,
00:23:52you just throw cash at toys.
00:23:55You disgust me.
00:23:56He didn't buy them.
00:23:57Then he took out a bunch of IOUs.
00:23:59Listen to me.
00:24:00When that company comes to collect, we are all in a lot of trouble.
00:24:06You know, I'm just going to say it.
00:24:08I'm not giving you a cent.
00:24:09No, no, no.
00:24:10I'm not going to be bankrolling my grifter of a brother-in-law
00:24:13who is just trying to hustle us all out of money.
00:24:16Listen, none of you need to pay anything.
00:24:18So if you don't pay, then who does?
00:24:20How does a skid row reject like you afford something like that?
00:24:23I don't have to pay either.
00:24:24So what?
00:24:25You just call in a favor at the Pentagon?
00:24:28Oh, you have DARPA on speed dial?
00:24:31Oh, wow.
00:24:33As a matter of fact, yes, I do.
00:24:37Anyway, it's none of your concern.
00:24:39You know, all this idle chit-chat, I completely forgot.
00:24:42You two need to sign the annulment papers.
00:24:45I'd be happy to take you as my wife.
00:24:48Sophia, you deserve a partner who can put a diamond on your finger
00:24:51and not dirt under your nails.
00:24:53It's time to move on from this charlatan.
00:24:56Sophia, why don't we just put an end to this
00:24:59and we can forget it ever happened.
00:25:15No.
00:25:17Sophia, don't let pride get in the way of you making the right decision.
00:25:23Sophia, he is not the same man that you married.
00:25:26No one would blame you.
00:25:27It's modern times, so.
00:25:29Nobody takes wedding vows seriously anymore.
00:25:32It's all free love, free marriage.
00:25:35You should trade up while you still can.
00:25:36We can go to the courthouse right now.
00:25:38We can get it all done tonight.
00:25:39An annulment, marriage.
00:25:41Two for one.
00:25:42Enough!
00:25:42God!
00:25:44I am still right here.
00:25:46And if you keep insulting me and Sophia,
00:25:48don't be surprised if we walk out of here for good.
00:25:51Together.
00:25:53There it is.
00:25:54Anger.
00:25:55Typical impotent man's weapon.
00:25:57Violence and empty threats.
00:25:59Don't make it worse.
00:26:01Sophia, are you listening to what they're saying?
00:26:03They're trying to force us to annul our marriage.
00:26:06Don't talk.
00:26:07They're just in shock.
00:26:09I'm not in shock.
00:26:11Tomorrow morning, Chris,
00:26:13you will take my daughter down to the courthouse
00:26:16and get an annulment and end this sham of a union.
00:26:19And I'll be right there to say I do.
00:26:24He thinks he's already won.
00:26:26But in less than 72 hours,
00:26:28Langford Capital will belong to me.
00:26:31Your company going under wasn't the only bombshell I discovered.
00:26:34A little birdie told me that $100 million
00:26:36went missing from Apex Group's cash reserves.
00:26:39So you're a liar and a thief!
00:26:42And after I spilled the beans of Chris's bankruptcy,
00:26:46I got another tip.
00:26:47Apparently Apex Group's Fortune 500 cover boy
00:26:50supposedly rewired a massive loan
00:26:52from a Swiss bank to an offshore accountant.
00:26:55Oh, Chris!
00:26:57Have you no shame?
00:26:59That explains the miracle medicine
00:27:01and the military toys outside this house!
00:27:02It matches all of it.
00:27:05Case closed.
00:27:06I knew it!
00:27:07You're not only worthless,
00:27:08but you are a criminal!
00:27:10Did you hear that?
00:27:10If I deliver you,
00:27:12a deadbeat fraud,
00:27:13to the authorities,
00:27:14I get a major reward.
00:27:15And could you imagine the headlines?
00:27:17And I would earn good favor with the president.
00:27:20His whole campaign was run
00:27:21on bringing down corporate corruption.
00:27:23I'd probably get invited to the White House.
00:27:24Derek, you're the fraud.
00:27:26Not me.
00:27:29Lock the doors.
00:27:31We need to make sure
00:27:32he doesn't make a run for it.
00:27:38Lock the doors.
00:27:39We need to make sure
00:27:40he doesn't make a run for it.
00:27:41He's still my husband.
00:27:43He's family.
00:27:44Family?
00:27:45If Chris gets arrested,
00:27:46it drags us all down.
00:27:48You want a hundred million dollar debt
00:27:49tied to our family name?
00:27:50Who do you think
00:27:51the government's gonna come after
00:27:53when Chris can't pay up?
00:27:54Oh, my God!
00:27:55You're right, honey!
00:28:00Sophia, honey,
00:28:01listen to me.
00:28:03I don't owe anything.
00:28:07He's lying.
00:28:09Is he?
00:28:10Or have you been deceiving me all along?
00:28:16Exactly.
00:28:17You know,
00:28:18from what I can tell,
00:28:19it's Chris telling lies.
00:28:21You steal a hundred million dollars
00:28:22to come to the house
00:28:23of an innocent family
00:28:24and you're flaunted?
00:28:24That is disgusting.
00:28:25You're a sick man!
00:28:26There is one way out.
00:28:28Annulment.
00:28:28Immediately.
00:28:30As long as Sophia cuts off these ties,
00:28:32as long as the Donovan family
00:28:33draws clear lines,
00:28:35his debt dies with him.
00:28:37Sophia,
00:28:38I can still give you
00:28:39the future you deserve.
00:28:40With me.
00:28:47Yes!
00:28:48Yes!
00:28:48Divorce him!
00:28:49And then you can marry Derek.
00:28:51I mean, look at him.
00:28:53He has real power and real money.
00:28:56And then this family can rise
00:28:59instead of crashing with Chris.
00:29:01Why are you just standing around?
00:29:03Go on.
00:29:04Annul the marriage
00:29:05and ended with this fraud!
00:29:07Mom,
00:29:08he just lost his way for a moment.
00:29:10Oh, no.
00:29:11Why are you still shielding him?
00:29:13I don't mind.
00:29:13The two of you want to sink,
00:29:15but you will not drown
00:29:17the Donovan family with you!
00:29:19He may be going through a rough patch,
00:29:21but he's been good to me.
00:29:24I'll leave with him.
00:29:28We won't be your burden.
00:29:31Sophia,
00:29:32I will always protect you.
00:29:34I'll always make you happy,
00:29:36even if it's the last thing I do.
00:29:42Eric, please.
00:29:44Don't ruin it.
00:29:46You're still defending him?
00:29:47This cockroach of a man?
00:29:50For the sake of our paths,
00:29:51I'm begging you to have mercy.
00:29:54Absolutely not.
00:29:55If he runs,
00:29:56the fallout comes back on us.
00:29:58Sophia,
00:29:59you are going to send me
00:30:00to an early grave!
00:30:02Here's what's going to happen.
00:30:05My security detail
00:30:06is waiting just outside for me.
00:30:08They come in,
00:30:09they haul Chris's ass
00:30:10down to Langford Capital,
00:30:11and while he's sitting
00:30:12in the basement storage room,
00:30:13we'll have Sophia
00:30:14sign the annulment papers.
00:30:17Brilliant.
00:30:18You can teach this pawn scum
00:30:19a lesson.
00:30:20That's him.
00:30:21Take it.
00:30:22I dare you.
00:30:23Put one finger on me,
00:30:25and you'll regret it
00:30:26for the rest of your life.
00:30:27Big talk coming
00:30:28from a broken con man.
00:30:29I'll have you dragged
00:30:30out of here in cuffs,
00:30:31and the Donovan family
00:30:32will thank me.
00:30:34You're going to play this game?
00:30:35Go on, Derek.
00:30:37Make your move.
00:30:38Detain him now.
00:30:44He's at the ball!
00:30:45He's off her!
00:30:51Don't worry.
00:30:52Once they're through with him,
00:30:53he'll thank me
00:30:53for saving you.
00:30:56Sophia, remember,
00:30:58I did this for you.
00:31:00For us.
00:31:03Take him.
00:31:04Yeah.
00:31:05Wait, don't!
00:31:06Stop!
00:31:16After the bankruptcy leak,
00:31:17my board wants answers.
00:31:19You don't believe the rumors?
00:31:20Leaks can be planted.
00:31:21I don't lie for a second
00:31:22if the apex is broke.
00:31:24So this is a fact-finding mission.
00:31:26If the headlines are true,
00:31:27then we cut and run.
00:31:28But if not,
00:31:29this family may be sitting
00:31:30on a gold mine
00:31:31and not even realize it.
00:31:40Oh my God!
00:31:41Oh my God!
00:31:41Oh my God!
00:31:41Oh my God!
00:31:41I just saw a woman outside,
00:31:43and she looks an awful lot
00:31:44like Marina Barron.
00:31:46Barron?
00:31:47As in Barron Holdings,
00:31:48are you sure?
00:31:48Yeah.
00:31:49I Googled her,
00:31:50and the pictures on the Google
00:31:51look like the pictures
00:31:52of the woman
00:31:53who was standing outside.
00:31:54Don't you know what this means?
00:31:55She is the predator
00:31:56come to collect
00:31:56on a minor crystal.
00:31:57Oh my God!
00:31:58We're so screwed
00:32:00and Sophia is still
00:32:00legally tied to Chris
00:32:01if she connects the dots?
00:32:03A bruh-stern.
00:32:03He's been dragging us down
00:32:04since day one.
00:32:05Are you happy now?
00:32:06What do we do?
00:32:06We can't let her in.
00:32:09She is the most powerful woman
00:32:10on the street.
00:32:10If we don't let her in,
00:32:11we look guilty.
00:32:12Okay, but like,
00:32:13hear me out.
00:32:13Like, what if
00:32:14she's not here
00:32:15to collect on Chris's deaths?
00:32:16Sweetheart, what?
00:32:17Don't be naive.
00:32:18Then, okay,
00:32:19here's what we do.
00:32:19We tell her
00:32:20that we kicked Chris out
00:32:21and then we forced Sophia
00:32:22to sign the annulment papers
00:32:23and we never touched
00:32:24a dime of his money.
00:32:26We should have gone to the
00:32:26courthouse hours ago.
00:32:28Hold on.
00:32:30Let me call my friend
00:32:31at the courthouse.
00:32:31Maybe he can backdate
00:32:32something for us.
00:32:33Yes.
00:32:33Daddy's got it.
00:32:35No, he isn't lying.
00:32:38He didn't steal
00:32:40a hundred billion dollars.
00:32:42Okay, Sophia,
00:32:42you look so demure right now,
00:32:44but my priority
00:32:45is protecting my family.
00:32:47He is my family.
00:32:48Well, then you need to decide.
00:32:50It's either him or us.
00:32:52I'm not signing anything today.
00:32:54Do you want bonus?
00:32:55You need to grow up.
00:32:56The world runs on money
00:32:58and power
00:32:58and your husband
00:32:59has knighted.
00:33:00Okay, this is what
00:33:01we're going to do.
00:33:02We're going to let her in.
00:33:03We're going to smile.
00:33:04We're going to be gracious
00:33:05and we're going to make it
00:33:06abundantly clear
00:33:06that we have cut ties
00:33:08with Chris completely.
00:33:09Completely.
00:33:10That means you.
00:33:11If she asks about the marriage,
00:33:13you say it's already been annul.
00:33:15Do you understand?
00:33:16You are not going to
00:33:17drag us down with him.
00:33:20Smith, game time.
00:33:21Game time.
00:33:22Let her in.
00:33:24Okay, smiles.
00:33:27Oh, Miss Sparron.
00:33:29What an honor.
00:33:30I believe your son-in-law
00:33:32works with one of our
00:33:33affiliate banks.
00:33:34I thought since I'm in town,
00:33:35I'd put a face to the name
00:33:36that I have heard
00:33:37such good things about.
00:33:39Tom Hayden,
00:33:40Assistant VP,
00:33:41Commercial Lending,
00:33:41mentioned on our
00:33:42vendor list last year.
00:33:44Tom, it's a pleasure.
00:33:46Anything you need,
00:33:46you get my full attention.
00:33:48I appreciate that.
00:33:50Thank you, sweetheart.
00:33:53While I'm here,
00:33:54I thought I'd clear up
00:33:55a few questions
00:33:56that the market
00:33:57has been whispering about.
00:33:59Questions?
00:34:00Okay.
00:34:01Apex Group.
00:34:02If Chris Bell truly
00:34:03is at the helm,
00:34:04then the bankruptcy
00:34:05rumors don't add up.
00:34:07I know this was
00:34:08his last address on file.
00:34:10Is he here?
00:34:24Is he here?
00:34:26Uh, Chris,
00:34:27oh no,
00:34:28he is a loser
00:34:29who we kicked out
00:34:30and we cut ties with
00:34:31completely.
00:34:32You did what?
00:34:33And the marriage
00:34:34to our daughter.
00:34:36That's been an old.
00:34:37He is no longer
00:34:38part of the family.
00:34:39Actually,
00:34:39he's a shit stain.
00:34:40And if he's in trouble,
00:34:42that's his problem.
00:34:43These idiots
00:34:44have no idea
00:34:45what they've done.
00:34:47Miss Barron,
00:34:48I don't think
00:34:49you understand.
00:34:50We despise him.
00:34:52And if we could
00:34:53cut him up
00:34:54into like tiny,
00:34:55little,
00:34:56itty-bitty,
00:34:57bite-sized pieces,
00:34:58we would.
00:34:59Excuse me,
00:34:59cut him to what now?
00:35:01Small pieces.
00:35:02And that's not
00:35:02all I would do.
00:35:03If I could,
00:35:04I would skin him alive.
00:35:06I would break
00:35:07every bone
00:35:08in his body.
00:35:09and then
00:35:10I would suck
00:35:11his blood dry.
00:35:15He's scary.
00:35:17He just never
00:35:18really knew his place.
00:35:19He clung to Sophia
00:35:21and then he used
00:35:22all of us.
00:35:23So you thought
00:35:24Chris Bell was not
00:35:25good enough
00:35:25to marry into this family?
00:35:27No.
00:35:28Bingo.
00:35:30Don't you worry,
00:35:31the world is better
00:35:32with him buried
00:35:33in a ditch.
00:35:33I'm sorry,
00:35:34where is he now?
00:35:38Derek's security
00:35:39detail took him
00:35:40to Langford Capital.
00:35:41The guards
00:35:42have probably
00:35:42already beat him
00:35:43halfway to death.
00:35:44But don't worry,
00:35:44Miss Barrett.
00:35:44I mean,
00:35:45none of us here
00:35:45feel sorry for him.
00:35:46And I think
00:35:47I speak on behalf
00:35:48of everyone
00:35:48on this couch
00:35:49when I say
00:35:49we'd all be
00:35:50a lot happier
00:35:50if they just
00:35:51finished the job.
00:35:56You said
00:35:56that he was
00:35:57at Langford Capital?
00:35:58Yeah,
00:35:58in a storage room
00:35:58in a basement.
00:35:59Derek wanted
00:36:00to take him
00:36:00to a place
00:36:01where nobody
00:36:01could hear him
00:36:01scream.
00:36:02Right.
00:36:04Yes.
00:36:04Oh.
00:36:06Congratulations.
00:36:07You just
00:36:08made the
00:36:09biggest mistake
00:36:10of your lives.
00:36:12What?
00:36:12Oh.
00:36:13What?
00:36:14That did sound
00:36:14good.
00:36:15What the hell
00:36:15is our problem?
00:36:16Yeah,
00:36:16and why all of a sudden
00:36:17does she care
00:36:18about Chris
00:36:18and his well-being?
00:36:21No.
00:36:22She's sleeping
00:36:23with him.
00:36:24Oh, yes.
00:36:25Yes, yes.
00:36:26Excuse me?
00:36:27I mean,
00:36:27why else would a woman
00:36:28like that care
00:36:29about financial corpses?
00:36:30Oh,
00:36:31it's all
00:36:32so clear now.
00:36:33The drones
00:36:34that theatrics
00:36:35Chris was trying
00:36:36to impress her.
00:36:37Baron Holdings,
00:36:38they protect their own.
00:36:39She's probably
00:36:40funding him on the side.
00:36:41Probably a lot
00:36:41more than that.
00:36:42Mm-hmm.
00:36:43Hopefully.
00:36:44That's true,
00:36:45and they're still
00:36:46entangled.
00:36:46We need to sever ties
00:36:48immediately.
00:36:49Tomorrow morning,
00:36:50no delays,
00:36:50the papers.
00:36:51No nuts!
00:36:52Whoa!
00:36:53I won't be part
00:36:54of your gossip milk!
00:36:55Well,
00:36:55it's not gossip
00:36:56if it's obvious,
00:36:57Sophia.
00:36:58It's obvious
00:36:58that you'll do
00:36:59anything to make
00:37:00Chris look better.
00:37:01Yeah,
00:37:01that's enough.
00:37:02As long as you
00:37:03are still married to him,
00:37:04our family
00:37:05is on the chopping block
00:37:07for his reckless failings.
00:37:08You are either
00:37:09too naive
00:37:10or too stupid
00:37:12to say.
00:37:26Annulment papers.
00:37:28Sign them
00:37:29and we're done.
00:37:30You think this basement
00:37:30scares me?
00:37:32You have no idea
00:37:34what's coming.
00:37:42good news,
00:37:43good news, asshole.
00:37:44Your wife's family
00:37:44is ready
00:37:45to be reasonable.
00:37:47Then I guess
00:37:48I don't need
00:37:49to sign anything.
00:37:50Cute.
00:37:52Sign
00:37:53the goddamn
00:37:54papers.
00:37:55Derek,
00:37:56you keep
00:37:57taking my silence
00:37:58for surrender.
00:38:00This is your last chance,
00:38:01about it.
00:38:02Hmm?
00:38:03If you refuse,
00:38:04I'll buy Apex Group
00:38:06myself.
00:38:06And then I'll sell it
00:38:07for scraps
00:38:08like a junkyard car.
00:38:09Hmm?
00:38:11So what's it gonna be?
00:38:13Time's ticking.
00:38:16Derek,
00:38:19you can go straight
00:38:22to hell.
00:38:25Make him regret
00:38:25that choice.
00:38:34This is gonna make you
00:38:35sign one way
00:38:36or another.
00:38:37Last chance
00:38:38to take the easy
00:38:39way out.
00:38:40More fun
00:38:41would that be.
00:38:48Oh,
00:38:49I don't know
00:38:49like a Christmas
00:38:50tree.
00:39:04Is that all
00:39:05you got?
00:39:20sign it properly.
00:39:22I'll make sure
00:39:23that every nerve
00:39:23in your body
00:39:24is fried,
00:39:25rendering you
00:39:26useless.
00:39:33Touch him again,
00:39:34and I'll make sure
00:39:35this entire building
00:39:36is on lockdown
00:39:36before sunrise.
00:39:37What the hell
00:39:38is this?
00:39:39Kidnapping?
00:39:40Extortion?
00:39:41Attempted murder?
00:39:44He's a fraud
00:39:45and a liar.
00:39:47He's a two-bit
00:39:48Bernie Madoff hack.
00:39:49Whatever rumors
00:39:50you've heard
00:39:51about Apex Group,
00:39:52the story
00:39:53isn't adding up.
00:39:54Who the fuck
00:39:55are you?
00:39:57Marina Barron.
00:39:59Barron Holdings.
00:40:01Oh, shit.
00:40:03She's about
00:40:04to destroy
00:40:05my whole plan.
00:40:09Listen,
00:40:10Marina,
00:40:11I really appreciate
00:40:12what you're trying
00:40:13to do here,
00:40:13but he's right.
00:40:16I'm a fraud.
00:40:20I have multiple
00:40:22contacts,
00:40:23credible sources
00:40:24inside.
00:40:25They're wrong.
00:40:26Trust me.
00:40:28And that's how
00:40:29I've seen you.
00:40:30You don't want
00:40:31anything to do
00:40:31with me.
00:40:33I must have been
00:40:33wrong about him.
00:40:35We should sit down
00:40:36and talk.
00:40:37I like the way
00:40:38you operate.
00:40:42We'll never see
00:40:43that Chris guy again.
00:40:44Me too.
00:40:44I don't think we will.
00:40:45I think we really
00:40:45scared him off last time.
00:40:47Oh, my God.
00:40:49Look at the cat
00:40:49around, dude.
00:40:51Chris.
00:40:56You thought
00:40:56you'd get rid
00:40:57of me, huh?
00:40:59Well,
00:41:01I'm not dead yet.
00:41:05Stay
00:41:05right there.
00:41:08Unbelievable.
00:41:09He just crawls
00:41:10right back
00:41:10into our home
00:41:11like a stray.
00:41:12Somebody should
00:41:13call the animal control.
00:41:14No need.
00:41:15We can evict
00:41:16him ourselves.
00:41:18Tonight,
00:41:19for good.
00:41:23Sophia.
00:41:27Look at me.
00:41:29No looks.
00:41:30You are not
00:41:31a husband.
00:41:32You are not
00:41:33a son-in-law.
00:41:34And you are not
00:41:35part of this family
00:41:36anymore.
00:41:37Tom?
00:41:39Show him the door.
00:41:40Oh, absolutely.
00:41:41Oh, but don't let him
00:41:42step on the lawn
00:41:42because the gardener
00:41:43just planted
00:41:43my favorite flowers
00:41:44and if he steps on them
00:41:45he'll just be so obsessed.
00:41:46Of course I didn't.
00:41:47All right.
00:41:48I know where the door is, Tom.
00:41:51Are you coming
00:41:52with me?
00:41:57Don't you dare.
00:42:00Do you want to kill
00:42:01your father
00:42:01with the stress?
00:42:06Do you want that
00:42:07on your conscience?
00:42:15Chris, I'm sorry.
00:42:27You're going to regret this.
00:42:30All of you.
00:42:32For every word,
00:42:34every choice
00:42:34that you made today.
00:42:37Sure, whatever.
00:42:39Just put it in a greeting card.
00:42:40There's the door, Jim.
00:42:41There.
00:42:44I'm not giving up on this.
00:42:51Oh, good riddance.
00:42:54Hey.
00:42:55Yeah?
00:42:55Someone's going to need
00:42:56to change the locks.
00:42:59Okay, yes.
00:43:01You're welcome.
00:43:02I love you.
00:43:09Vic, it's me.
00:43:12Do it.
00:43:13All of them.
00:43:15I want each one
00:43:16of them begging
00:43:16for mercy.
00:43:19Got that?
00:43:20Oh.
00:43:21That's a cute one
00:43:22of Max.
00:43:23Oh, oh.
00:43:25Hello?
00:43:26Oh.
00:43:28Yeah.
00:43:29Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:43:31But I've...
00:43:32What do you mean
00:43:33effective immediately?
00:43:33I've headed that committee
00:43:34for three years.
00:43:35No, no, no.
00:43:36There has to be some mistake.
00:43:37I just closed the Fulton account.
00:43:38No, no, no, no.
00:43:39Wait, you can't...
00:43:40Revoke, no, I...
00:43:40Wait, wait, wait.
00:43:41You can't just restructure me out.
00:43:43I signed the promotion paperwork.
00:43:45Hello?
00:43:46Hello?
00:43:50Oh, my God.
00:43:51I was just fired.
00:43:53Me too.
00:43:54And they're rolling back
00:43:56my bonus
00:43:57reviewing irregularities.
00:43:59What just happened?
00:44:02It's Chris.
00:44:04The man is so toxic,
00:44:06he's taking us all down with him.
00:44:08Our brother-in-law's company
00:44:10is publicly outed as bankrupt
00:44:12and riddled with fraud,
00:44:13and then both of our careers
00:44:15just go up in smoke?
00:44:16That is not a coincidence.
00:44:18Wait a minute.
00:44:19So he shits the bed,
00:44:21and you two are collateral damage?
00:44:24Yes!
00:44:24You see?
00:44:25This is why I say
00:44:26sever ties.
00:44:28You don't know
00:44:29that Chris was the cause of this.
00:44:31Oh!
00:44:31Don't be naive.
00:44:32He makes enemies
00:44:33wherever he goes,
00:44:35and we are expected
00:44:36to foot the bill.
00:44:37We're not eating this.
00:44:39Not after everything.
00:44:40The city still owes
00:44:42on a demolition payout.
00:44:44Chris's childhood home
00:44:45is in the redevelopment zone.
00:44:47He is still owed
00:44:49a check
00:44:49for them tearing it down.
00:44:51So...
00:44:52we collect it
00:44:53as compensation
00:44:53for everything
00:44:54he's put us through.
00:44:55Oh, you can't just take it.
00:44:56Watch us.
00:44:57We will file a claim
00:44:58through the executive order
00:45:00or whatever place, okay?
00:45:01By the time Chris figures out
00:45:03the money's gone,
00:45:04it's too late.
00:45:05It's ours.
00:45:05Yeah.
00:45:06We don't need to suffer
00:45:07for his incompetence.
00:45:09He will pay it out.
00:45:11Do it.
00:45:11Make him pay back
00:45:12every dollar he owes
00:45:14this family.
00:45:15That house
00:45:16is the only memory
00:45:18he has left of his parents.
00:45:20Well, he should have
00:45:20thought about that
00:45:21before he tanked his business
00:45:22and poisoned our names.
00:45:24I'll get the paperwork going.
00:45:26County records office
00:45:27will be in for the morning.
00:45:28You're so smart, babe.
00:45:29You're saving the day.
00:45:32You see?
00:45:33We take care of her.
00:45:36Got it.
00:45:37Anyone
00:45:38fucks with the Donovitz!
00:45:45To anyone else,
00:45:46this is a run-down old house.
00:45:48But for me,
00:45:49it's home.
00:45:55Lostad,
00:45:55you're the last holdout.
00:45:56Just sign the property over
00:45:57and no one gets hurt.
00:45:58This house is the last thing
00:46:00left of my parents.
00:46:01You want it?
00:46:03We're gonna have to tear it down
00:46:04with me in it.
00:46:09Oh, I knew Chris would be here.
00:46:12Get him to agree
00:46:14and that demolition payment
00:46:15is ours!
00:46:16It's his house
00:46:17and our survival.
00:46:19Don't you see it?
00:46:21His mess has already cost us
00:46:22money,
00:46:23jobs,
00:46:24status.
00:46:25You'll get him to sign it over
00:46:27because you're a darling first.
00:46:31Do it.
00:46:41Sophia.
00:46:44Hi!
00:46:49Go on.
00:46:50Isn't there something
00:46:51you want to say to him?
00:46:55Chris, I...
00:46:56I know how important
00:46:58this was just...
00:46:59Oh, just spit it out already!
00:47:02Please.
00:47:04Don't ask me to do this.
00:47:05Don't listen to him.
00:47:07He will just drag us down
00:47:08until we have nothing left.
00:47:10Go on.
00:47:11Talk some sense into him.
00:47:12He is going to bury us
00:47:14with him, Sophia.
00:47:15And what about Dad?
00:47:17Huh?
00:47:17He's gonna kill him
00:47:18faster than the heart disease
00:47:19ever would.
00:47:27Carissa.
00:47:27I'm sorry.
00:47:31It's just a lot of money.
00:47:34Okay, that's enough talking.
00:47:35Excuse me?
00:47:37Excuse us.
00:47:38I need more stuff.
00:47:40Oh, I hate these stairs.
00:47:41They're the first to go, I think.
00:47:42I need more stuff.
00:47:51Ugly.
00:47:52Hideous.
00:47:53Horrible.
00:47:55Oh!
00:47:56Well, this
00:47:57has to be a knockoff.
00:47:59Chris's parents
00:48:00could never afford
00:48:01the real thing.
00:48:02Bag it, babe.
00:48:03Yes, ma'am.
00:48:05Oh-ho!
00:48:07What is in here, huh?
00:48:10Pretty pricey
00:48:11for someone
00:48:11who can't even
00:48:12afford lunch meat, huh?
00:48:13Those belong to my grandmother.
00:48:14Oh, well.
00:48:16Then she should have
00:48:17taken them
00:48:17to the grave with her.
00:48:19These deadbeats
00:48:20sure know how
00:48:21to keep up appearances.
00:48:22Oh, wow.
00:48:23This is fancy.
00:48:25Tom, off the wall,
00:48:26in the bag now.
00:48:27Yep.
00:48:27Now, let me ask you, Chris.
00:48:29Were your mom and dad
00:48:31kleptomaniacs?
00:48:33Oh.
00:48:34Look at this.
00:48:36Somebody was very busy
00:48:37in kindergarten art class.
00:48:39My mother made that, okay?
00:48:40That's the last thing
00:48:41I have of hers.
00:48:42Oh.
00:48:43Well.
00:48:44Mom certainly wasn't
00:48:46Michelangelo.
00:48:47Whoa!
00:48:48Oh!
00:48:53Oops!
00:48:54Oh!
00:48:55Oh!
00:48:58That was priceless.
00:49:01Well, uh,
00:49:03not anymore.
00:49:05Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:49:06Chris.
00:49:08I'm sorry.
00:49:12I'm working.
00:49:13Well, you had a white bear.
00:49:14Stabilition time!
00:49:15Oh!
00:49:16Oh!
00:49:16Oh!
00:49:17Wonderful!
00:49:20Oh, I hope you took
00:49:22pictures, Chris.
00:49:23Is this dump right here
00:49:24or is about to be
00:49:24a pile of rubble?
00:49:25Let's go, boys!
00:49:29Woo!
00:49:30Woo!
00:49:31It's good!
00:49:38All right, great.
00:49:39You got a big bulldozer.
00:49:40But this house
00:49:41does not move.
00:49:42Not one brick.
00:49:43Move aside, Mel.
00:49:44Unless you want to get
00:49:45flattened out
00:49:45like a fucking pancake.
00:49:48Then you're gonna have
00:49:49to take me out.
00:49:52If this house goes down,
00:49:53it's landing on top of me.
00:49:55How pathetic.
00:49:56He's gonna martyr himself
00:49:57over a shithole.
00:49:58Well, at least that
00:49:59saves us the paperwork.
00:50:24Who the fuck is he?
00:50:25Who the fuck is he?
00:50:30If that bulldozer
00:50:31moves another inch,
00:50:32I will bury your little
00:50:33demolition racket
00:50:34in federal court.
00:50:36Kickbacks?
00:50:37Forged bids?
00:50:39Half of your payroll
00:50:40are ghosts.
00:50:41You don't think
00:50:41I see every wire transfer?
00:50:46This isn't over.
00:50:48Yes, it is.
00:50:49Walk.
00:50:54How sad.
00:50:56Yet another woman
00:50:58swooping in
00:50:59to rescue you.
00:51:02Come on.
00:51:03We're done here.
00:51:06I didn't want it
00:51:07to be like this.
00:51:08It doesn't have to be.
00:51:09If you just stay with me.
00:51:11Oh.
00:51:12What?
00:51:12So you can have
00:51:13another mistress?
00:51:15Look, I can explain
00:51:16all of this.
00:51:18Just...
00:51:18Not yet.
00:51:20Oh, Mystery Man
00:51:21has some secret timetable?
00:51:23Hmm?
00:51:23Hmm, maybe he's
00:51:24under an NDA.
00:51:25Let me translate
00:51:26for you, my dear.
00:51:27A man who has
00:51:29to explain
00:51:30is a man
00:51:31who is alive.
00:51:33You can do better than that.
00:51:34Okay.
00:51:35You want to know the truth?
00:51:40The truth is,
00:51:42Victoria is not
00:51:42my mistress.
00:51:43She works for me.
00:51:45She's Apex Group's fixer.
00:51:47And I'm the queen
00:51:48of Monaco.
00:51:49She has no power.
00:51:50Your company
00:51:51is a laughingstock.
00:51:52It is a disgrace.
00:51:53Not only are you delusional,
00:51:55but you also think
00:51:55you're a bunch of fools.
00:51:57Do you see
00:51:58the sickness in this?
00:51:59He has created
00:52:00this whole fantasy
00:52:01where he's still rich
00:52:03and his assistant
00:52:04is some kind of
00:52:05Tony Soprano.
00:52:07If that's true,
00:52:09why did you keep it for me?
00:52:11Why keep her secret?
00:52:13Because she works
00:52:14in the shadows.
00:52:15And I couldn't...
00:52:18Oh, there it is.
00:52:20The sentence ends
00:52:21before the truth begins.
00:52:23So what?
00:52:24We're supposed to hang
00:52:25our livelihoods off
00:52:27and just...
00:52:27Just trust me, babe?
00:52:28He wants you to think
00:52:30it's a business relationship.
00:52:32But it's a cover
00:52:33for a sham,
00:52:35for an affair,
00:52:36for a bunch of lies
00:52:37that he thinks
00:52:38you are too stupid
00:52:40to see.
00:52:40I can't breathe.
00:52:42Don't.
00:52:43Don't.
00:52:52I want to send me a moment.
00:52:55Well,
00:52:56compensation first.
00:52:57Let's do the calculations.
00:52:59Um, let's see.
00:53:00Reputational harm,
00:53:01employees lost,
00:53:03and, um,
00:53:04distress.
00:53:04I was...
00:53:05Oh, I was also
00:53:05very distressed.
00:53:06And you know what
00:53:07sounds good to me?
00:53:08Round numbers.
00:53:10You know,
00:53:11I think eight figures
00:53:12keeps it neat,
00:53:13but multiple aids
00:53:14keeps it fair.
00:53:15Yeah.
00:53:15You owe us
00:53:16for what you cost us.
00:53:19Fuck off.
00:53:20Well, not until
00:53:20we get what we want.
00:53:21I tell you what,
00:53:22why don't you send us
00:53:23a cool 50 mil
00:53:24from one of those
00:53:25offshore accounts
00:53:26that we heard you have?
00:53:28Oh.
00:53:30You called the police.
00:53:32I did.
00:53:33I reported
00:53:34a few trespassers.
00:53:36We're not trespassing.
00:53:38This is my son-in-law's
00:53:39home,
00:53:40and we are
00:53:41reclaiming what is ours.
00:53:42Officer,
00:53:43I'd like to report
00:53:43an active burglary.
00:53:44No, no, no.
00:53:45You cannot arrest us.
00:53:46Sophia is still
00:53:47married to Chris,
00:53:48so his assets
00:53:49are community property.
00:53:50Sir,
00:53:52is this your residence?
00:53:54No.
00:53:56It belonged to my parents.
00:53:57Well then,
00:53:58consider it payback
00:53:59for the affair
00:54:00you've been having.
00:54:01It's obvious.
00:54:02These two are sleeping together.
00:54:03Just look at them.
00:54:04Call me mistress
00:54:05one more time
00:54:06and trickle your problems.
00:54:07Trespassing,
00:54:08burglary,
00:54:09slander.
00:54:09Okay, well she didn't mean to.
00:54:11Too late.
00:54:12I'll be like orange.
00:54:13That'll be the only color
00:54:14in your closet
00:54:14for the next three to five years.
00:54:17Go ahead
00:54:18and arrest us.
00:54:19Parade us on the evening news
00:54:20and drag your boss
00:54:21through public humiliation
00:54:23and just see how the world
00:54:24reacts to this
00:54:25so-called affair
00:54:26you're having.
00:54:27I don't bluff.
00:54:28Wait, wait, wait.
00:54:30Please.
00:54:31Don't press charges.
00:54:32It's my mom.
00:54:35My sister.
00:54:37If you spare them,
00:54:39I'll let Chris go.
00:54:41If you want him,
00:54:42you can have him.
00:54:43Just don't destroy my family.
00:54:45Sophia.
00:54:46I have never wanted him like that.
00:54:48I respect him.
00:54:49I'm a fixer,
00:54:50not his mistress.
00:54:51That's all.
00:54:52At least escort them
00:54:53off the premises.
00:54:54Ah!
00:54:55No.
00:54:55No need.
00:54:57A Donovan
00:54:57doesn't overstay
00:54:59their welcome.
00:55:00Hmm.
00:55:06Hey,
00:55:07Sophia.
00:55:08Come on.
00:55:09Listen.
00:55:11I can make it up to you,
00:55:12okay?
00:55:13Promise.
00:55:14I might have to start small,
00:55:16but
00:55:16I don't know.
00:55:18Remember the car
00:55:18that you were talking about?
00:55:19I'll get it for you
00:55:20tomorrow.
00:55:21Chris,
00:55:21you can't afford it.
00:55:24Why do you keep
00:55:25trying to do this?
00:55:27It's not the reason
00:55:29why I married you.
00:55:32Hey.
00:55:34I promise you
00:55:35I'm gonna make this right.
00:55:37Trust me.
00:55:50It's beautiful.
00:55:52It's beautiful.
00:55:52It certainly is.
00:55:54It's yours.
00:55:56If you want it.
00:55:57If you can't afford it, sweetie,
00:55:59maybe don't touch.
00:56:01Lil,
00:56:02look at what the cat dragged in.
00:56:04Chris Bell.
00:56:05Professional failure.
00:56:06And the girl dumb enough
00:56:07to still believe in him.
00:56:09Hi, Lauren.
00:56:10What are you doing here?
00:56:11This car starts at 100k.
00:56:14This isn't a selfie museum.
00:56:17We were just
00:56:17looking.
00:56:18At what?
00:56:19Your reflections?
00:56:20You can't afford the merchandise.
00:56:22Babes,
00:56:23remember what I said?
00:56:24The poor come to luxury rooms
00:56:26like tourists at the zoo.
00:56:28They gawk and stare
00:56:29and then they leave.
00:56:33What color would you like?
00:56:37The pearl.
00:56:38I've always liked white.
00:56:40Still playing billionaire.
00:56:42I saw the headlines.
00:56:44Apex,
00:56:45bankrupt,
00:56:45fraudulent,
00:56:46blah, blah.
00:56:47You went from visionary
00:56:48to vision.
00:56:49Tell you what,
00:56:50if you're real nice,
00:56:52we'll let you sit
00:56:53in the back seat
00:56:53so you can smell
00:56:54the upholstery.
00:56:57We need two.
00:56:59White and black.
00:57:01But the fastest trim
00:57:02on both.
00:57:03Oh, baby.
00:57:04Look at that.
00:57:05Performance theater.
00:57:06Start the paperwork.
00:57:08Use crayons.
00:57:10Use my card.
00:57:11Chris.
00:57:12That's fine.
00:57:16This is going to be fun.
00:57:23Hear that, babes?
00:57:25That's the sound
00:57:26of desperation.
00:57:27It's so sad.
00:57:29Maybe it's a
00:57:29system issue.
00:57:34The system works fine
00:57:35for people with money.
00:57:37Okay.
00:57:37Just run a manual authorization.
00:57:40It says there's
00:57:41insufficient funds.
00:57:45Breaking news!
00:57:46The Apex Group Emperor
00:57:48has no clothes
00:57:49and no credit,
00:57:50apparently.
00:57:52Honey,
00:57:53there are plenty
00:57:54of great used lots
00:57:55in the Valley
00:57:56and they have
00:57:56free coffee, too.
00:57:57All right,
00:57:57just call your supervisor.
00:57:59Enable the corporate rails.
00:58:01Corporate rails?
00:58:03Someone learned
00:58:03a new phrase
00:58:04on TikTok.
00:58:05Cute shade.
00:58:06Is this a black diamond
00:58:08or the Party City edition?
00:58:10All right.
00:58:12Thanks.
00:58:15Where'd you get those?
00:58:16Out of a claw machine
00:58:17at Chuck E. Cheese?
00:58:18Counterfeits of crime
00:58:19is slick.
00:58:21Call your manager
00:58:22now.
00:58:23And you two?
00:58:24You should be very scared.
00:58:26Not of me,
00:58:27but of your boss
00:58:28when he finds out
00:58:29who you've been insulting.
00:58:31We run this floor.
00:58:32Keep talking.
00:58:33Maybe we'll get you
00:58:34a complimentary keychain
00:58:35on the way out.
00:58:36Chris,
00:58:37are those real?
00:58:38They certainly are.
00:58:39What's the problem here?
00:58:41Mr. Stone,
00:58:43perfect timing.
00:58:44This broke customer
00:58:45is trying to buy
00:58:46a vehicle
00:58:47with a dead stack
00:58:48of plastic.
00:58:50Those are those.
00:58:51Those would be mine.
00:58:52It looks like
00:58:53your terminal
00:58:54is refusing
00:58:55corporate authorization.
00:58:58Terminal 2.
00:59:00Enable Bank Direct.
00:59:04Wait a minute,
00:59:05this isn't just black diamond.
00:59:06this is
00:59:07supreme tier.
00:59:11Only a few exist.
00:59:12Run it.
00:59:14Now!
00:59:20Pen,
00:59:22sir.
00:59:23Of course.
00:59:31My apologies,
00:59:33Mr.
00:59:34Bell.
00:59:36Mr.
00:59:36Bell.
00:59:37Welcome.
00:59:38I do apologize
00:59:39that you weren't
00:59:40recognized sooner
00:59:41and on behalf
00:59:42of my salespeople
00:59:43who are complete
00:59:45incompetent...
00:59:45It must be
00:59:46a mistake.
00:59:47No,
00:59:47it's no mistake.
00:59:48I want both of you
00:59:49off my floor.
00:59:50Let's head to the detail bay.
00:59:51I've got a couple of cars
00:59:52that need to wash.
00:59:53You are just trying
00:59:54to protect the dealership.
00:59:56I insult
00:59:57the IV
00:59:58and his lovely wife.
01:00:00Mrs.
01:00:01Bell,
01:00:02I sincerely apologize.
01:00:04in this showroom
01:00:05we take pride
01:00:06in excellence
01:00:06and discretion.
01:00:08We failed you both today.
01:00:11Mr. Stone,
01:00:11please.
01:00:12This man is not a VIP.
01:00:13He's a bankrupt lizard.
01:00:14I'm going to take back
01:00:15what I said you're both.
01:00:16Fire.
01:00:18You can't do that.
01:00:19I'm your top salesperson.
01:00:21Correction.
01:00:21You were.
01:00:22I'm just a liability.
01:00:24This is crazy.
01:00:25So it is approved once.
01:00:27I mean,
01:00:27it's a glitch.
01:00:50This is a glitch.
01:00:52Mr. Stone,
01:00:53we were only trying
01:00:54to do our job.
01:00:55He's a con man.
01:00:56Haven't you seen
01:00:56the headlines?
01:00:57Maybe you shouldn't
01:00:58listen to everything
01:00:59you read on the internet.
01:01:01Sophia,
01:01:02we were high school
01:01:03classmates.
01:01:04Please,
01:01:04say something.
01:01:05You were awful
01:01:06to me back then,
01:01:07too.
01:01:08You always
01:01:10will just be
01:01:10the same.
01:01:12You think
01:01:13standing next to him
01:01:13makes you a somebody?
01:01:15All it makes you
01:01:16is the plus one
01:01:17to a worthless
01:01:18nobody.
01:01:19When the money
01:01:20dries up,
01:01:21and it will,
01:01:21you'll be the one
01:01:22hoarding food stamps
01:01:23while he's hiding
01:01:24from the debt collector.
01:01:25I've heard
01:01:26enough.
01:01:27Security,
01:01:28let's afford these two.
01:01:30You can play rich
01:01:31all you want,
01:01:32but we know
01:01:32exactly what you are.
01:01:34Nothing!
01:01:37Get him out of here.
01:01:43Chris,
01:01:44how can you
01:01:45afford all these cars?
01:01:50the rumors
01:01:51about my company's
01:01:52death may be
01:01:54premature.
01:01:55Look,
01:01:55I can't explain it.
01:01:57Just,
01:01:58not yet.
01:02:02I need you to trust me.
01:02:04Just a little while
01:02:05longer,
01:02:06okay?
01:02:08I won't let you die.
01:02:16Hey Vic.
01:02:18Yeah?
01:02:20Oh,
01:02:20I'm ready.
01:02:22It's time to finish
01:02:23what we started.
01:02:26Langford Capital's
01:02:27hosting a shareholder
01:02:28meeting tomorrow
01:02:28at 3 p.m.
01:02:30I'm going to be
01:02:31making a surprise
01:02:31keynote.
01:02:33What are you up to?
01:02:35Just bring the whole
01:02:36family.
01:02:37make sure you sit
01:02:38in the front row.
01:02:47Security's in its place.
01:02:48The press is in the pen.
01:02:49The exit route
01:02:49is the service corridor
01:02:50in case anyone
01:02:51in the room
01:02:51gets feral.
01:02:52And what?
01:02:53Prepare for the
01:02:54worst case scenario.
01:02:56And after?
01:02:57After you can breathe.
01:02:59Maybe apologize
01:03:00to the one person
01:03:01who deserves it.
01:03:10Even if she never
01:03:11forgives me,
01:03:12the truth is simple.
01:03:14I did this for us.
01:03:29Good afternoon,
01:03:30ladies and gentlemen.
01:03:31Thank you for coming.
01:03:33Before we begin today,
01:03:34I'd like to make
01:03:34an announcement.
01:03:36Today,
01:03:37Langford Capital
01:03:38has protected
01:03:38its future
01:03:39by joining forces
01:03:41with Barron Holdings.
01:03:45Hey, wait up.
01:03:47Hey!
01:03:48I was serious
01:03:49back there,
01:03:49alright?
01:03:50With Apex Group
01:03:51crashing and burning,
01:03:52the future could be ours.
01:03:54Merge with Langford Capital.
01:03:56We could bury
01:03:57our competition.
01:03:59We'd be unstuck.
01:04:05You see, my dear?
01:04:07Well, Derek
01:04:09is building an empire.
01:04:11Your husband
01:04:11is circling
01:04:12the drain.
01:04:14You chose wrong, darling.
01:04:16Looking forward
01:04:16to today's agenda.
01:04:18The first thing
01:04:18we will do
01:04:19is be looking at
01:04:19last quarter's
01:04:20financial results.
01:04:22This is going to...
01:04:37isn't that
01:04:37Chris Bell?
01:04:39I heard he was
01:04:40homeless and
01:04:41bankrupt.
01:04:42Oh, God.
01:04:43He's about to
01:04:44humiliate himself
01:04:45again.
01:04:46Maybe they'll
01:04:47catch it on camera.
01:04:48Chris Bell,
01:04:49crashing my party.
01:04:51Bold move.
01:04:52Pointless.
01:04:54the cold.
01:04:55You don't belong
01:04:56in this room.
01:04:57You said it yourself.
01:04:59You're toxic.
01:05:00Correction.
01:05:01I own this room.
01:05:02And it's not
01:05:04the only thing
01:05:05that I own.
01:05:06What are you
01:05:07babbling on about?
01:05:08I own
01:05:09Baron Holdings, too.
01:05:12That's insane.
01:05:14Impossible.
01:05:15Not possible.
01:05:17Calculate it.
01:05:18You see,
01:05:19what Derek
01:05:19was busy gloating
01:05:20about my supposed
01:05:21bankruptcy,
01:05:22Apex Global
01:05:23quietly built
01:05:24a shadow position
01:05:25in Baron Holdings.
01:05:27So by the time
01:05:28he poured the champagne
01:05:29and whispered
01:05:30sweet mergers
01:05:30in Marina's ear,
01:05:32I already owned
01:05:33her board.
01:05:34So,
01:05:35when Langford merged
01:05:37with Baron just
01:05:38this morning,
01:05:39guess who's
01:05:40controlling vote
01:05:41dictated the terms.
01:05:45Derek,
01:05:46that merger
01:05:48that you bragged
01:05:48about,
01:05:49it wasn't
01:05:50your crowning move.
01:05:52It was my endgame.
01:05:54It wasn't
01:05:56your crowning move.
01:05:57It was my endgame.
01:05:58Baron swallowed
01:05:59Langford whole,
01:06:00and since I own
01:06:01Baron,
01:06:02that makes me
01:06:03majority shareholder
01:06:04in vote,
01:06:04which means,
01:06:05Derek,
01:06:06I'm not crashing
01:06:08your meeting.
01:06:10I'm running it.
01:06:12That can't be true.
01:06:14We saw the bankruptcy
01:06:15filings.
01:06:16He is bluffing.
01:06:16He has to be bluffing.
01:06:18He's pathological.
01:06:19He's such a liar.
01:06:20You're finished.
01:06:22Effective.
01:06:23Immediately.
01:06:24You can't do that.
01:06:25I just did.
01:06:26And Marina,
01:06:29that cushy seat
01:06:30next to him,
01:06:31well,
01:06:31that's gone too.
01:06:32Fortunately,
01:06:33you aligned yourself
01:06:33with the wrong savior.
01:06:35Now,
01:06:35you both report
01:06:37to me.
01:06:37In fact,
01:06:38let's make it official.
01:06:39Derek Langford
01:06:40and Marina Baron,
01:06:42you both
01:06:43are just
01:06:44hated.
01:06:46I own the board.
01:06:48I own
01:06:49the vote.
01:06:51And now,
01:06:54I own you.
01:07:16I'm sure you all
01:07:17are wondering why
01:07:18I let the world
01:07:19think I was finished.
01:07:20why I let
01:07:22everyone write
01:07:23my obituary
01:07:24why I just
01:07:24sat by quietly.
01:07:28Because when
01:07:28the predators
01:07:29start to circle,
01:07:30you don't raise
01:07:31a red flag.
01:07:34Play dead.
01:07:35You let them
01:07:36think that
01:07:37they've already
01:07:38won.
01:07:39Why they
01:07:40first move.
01:07:42Because if I
01:07:43didn't,
01:07:44they certainly
01:07:44would've.
01:07:45They weren't
01:07:46just eyeing a marriage
01:07:47between Langford
01:07:48and Baron.
01:07:49They were
01:07:50coming for
01:07:51Apex, too.
01:07:52Every seat,
01:07:53every share.
01:07:55And when the dust
01:07:56settled,
01:07:57they would've
01:07:57left us
01:07:58with absolutely
01:07:59nothing.
01:08:00While you're
01:08:01making confessions
01:08:01to your wife,
01:08:03you might as well
01:08:03tell her everything.
01:08:05Including
01:08:05our affair.
01:08:08You hear
01:08:09that so?
01:08:10Your knight
01:08:11in shining armor
01:08:11is actually
01:08:12just another
01:08:12cheating bastard.
01:08:14Sweat, huh?
01:08:15You're
01:08:15torturing our
01:08:16family and
01:08:16humiliating our
01:08:17sister?
01:08:18Look,
01:08:19I already
01:08:20told you.
01:08:21This guy's
01:08:22a poison.
01:08:23Tell me
01:08:23it's not true.
01:08:26You already
01:08:27know the answer
01:08:27to that.
01:08:28Of course
01:08:29it's not.
01:08:31She's desperate.
01:08:32Don't torture
01:08:33yourself,
01:08:34sweetheart.
01:08:35Remember
01:08:35the documents
01:08:36you signed
01:08:37before the
01:08:37wedding?
01:08:38I am sure
01:08:39they are
01:08:40an Iron
01:08:40Clan prenup.
01:08:41Yeah.
01:08:42I bet
01:08:42every dollar
01:08:43that he
01:08:44shielded his
01:08:44state with
01:08:45Apex Global
01:08:45so you'll be
01:08:46left with
01:08:46nothing either way.
01:08:48It's funny
01:08:48that you bring
01:08:49up those documents.
01:08:56Go on.
01:08:58Read it.
01:08:59out loud.
01:09:04This isn't a
01:09:05prenup.
01:09:06Of course
01:09:07it is.
01:09:07Don't be
01:09:07blind.

01:09:08a lawyer,

01:09:11you into
01:09:11giving away
01:09:12everything.
01:09:13It's a
01:09:14transfer of
01:09:14controlling
01:09:15interest.
01:09:17Crisinating
01:09:18a majority
