00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over
00:00:10a billion dollars in Arkham's situation.
00:00:13Don't be up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:16Don't be up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:19Don't be up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:23No, you have to.
00:00:24I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:25You gotta do this now.
00:00:28This isn't some random dip. Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:32We can't hold the line. We're about to become the laughingstock of Wall Street.
00:00:36No, no, we're not finished.
00:00:38We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julian, we need you. Again.
00:00:51Shit. Shit.
00:00:55Give me a sec.
00:01:00Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing?
00:01:03Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:12Julian, you saved my ass last time. I owe you. I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:19Great.
00:01:24The stock price is recovering. How is that possible?
00:01:27Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:30Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:33Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes. Chairman's orders.
00:01:41Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you. Watch your back.
00:01:46How is that possible?
00:01:48How is that possible?
00:02:13I want to go.
00:02:13Hey, everyone.
00:02:15Damien successfully neutralized the short attack against Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:21Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:29Since when does Damien own house of takeover from a hole in the ground?
00:02:32He must have stole this wing from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back and Damien used his pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:47Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire.
00:02:54The least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:55Damien.
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:00Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:10Julian.
00:03:11Your company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:16Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:20This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:24Wait, I'm sorry everyone.
00:03:27I forgot.
00:03:29You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:31My strategies, you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:39Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, let's start with a question.
00:03:44Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:46And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter.
00:03:51What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55All right, fine.
00:03:56Next question.
00:03:57Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:04:00And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:11All right.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:15the countermeasures for a potential proxies fight,
00:04:17or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:25You are nothing but a gloryhound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees the deal.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:44You know what, Clark?
00:04:46You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:59You hear that, Dad?
00:05:01I guess the verdict is get the fuck out.
00:05:05Understood.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:08I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company now.
00:05:15You took our family's market cap and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:21You've proven everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:27Harper's, uh, old friend, good staff, you know?
00:05:31Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:34What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:36Feelings can grow, brat.
00:05:38Our families go way back.
00:05:40Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life, my choice.
00:05:45But when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that...
00:05:47Enough!
00:05:48Oh, that's it.
00:05:49You're going to do this.
00:05:51I've already arranged everything.
00:05:52You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:55Go work with Serena.
00:05:57And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:02You refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse, Dr. Ann, check it out.
00:06:07My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:09What's the point?
00:06:09Okay.
00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:11Okay, all right.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:14I know when I pass, okay?
00:06:17For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:20We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:23The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own.
00:06:28Use that brilliant head of yours and help them.
00:06:33Please, for me.
00:06:36Fine.
00:06:37I'll do it.
00:06:39I hear you.
00:06:47For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked.
00:06:50Using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:53I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:56I made Serena Harper the queen of the city's business world.
00:06:59And for what?
00:07:01So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:05It's time to come home.
00:07:12You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:15So, pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my throat.
00:07:21I heard you.
00:07:22I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay, and then I'm gone.
00:07:25I said now!
00:07:26Or else I'm going to call security and you're going to drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:30Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:36Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:39You will leave.
00:07:40Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:43Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it.
00:07:47And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:49You know what, Serena?
00:07:50Serena, don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:58You don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place is because of your
00:08:04dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:05And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:09You're fucking nothing.
00:08:10You're a little trust-spun, entitled piece-of-shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:16So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking report what?
00:08:28You broke it.
00:08:29You broke my teeth.
00:08:30You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:32$100,000!
00:08:36We lost your balance.
00:08:38Maybe work on your course sheet.
00:08:40Julian, that is enough.
00:08:42Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:43Assault?
00:08:44Destruction of property?
00:08:46As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:49Effective immediately.
00:08:51Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:53Serena, you broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday, he has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:58Either pay up, or I swear you're going to rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07I'll pay.
00:09:08Is it $100,000?
00:09:10What $100,000?
00:09:11It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:15It's priceless.
00:09:17A million dollars being generous.
00:09:18You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:20A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:23He does have a point card.
00:09:24You break it, you buy it.
00:09:26That's the rule.
00:09:27Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:35Well, you're going to wire me the money?
00:09:38Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:40And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:46So what if you're Serena's Beyoncé?
00:09:49Look at her now.
00:09:50She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:54A million dollars.
00:09:55That's the final offer?
00:09:57What do you mean?
00:10:02Hi, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:16I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:23You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next?
00:10:28A private army?
00:10:29All right, Julian, the charade ends now.
00:10:31Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:33But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:37We are done.
00:10:39You sure?
00:10:40Whoa, whoa, you heard that, Julian?
00:10:41Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I throw you...
00:10:44Get your hands off me!
00:10:49Put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:51You know what?
00:10:52I'm gonna wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:03Mr. Brooks?
00:11:07That's David Brooks, president of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:09What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:12Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:13It can't be.
00:11:14That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:20The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:42What?
00:11:46Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To Julian?
00:11:50Wait, the money is...
00:11:51It's real?
00:11:52Wait.
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean...
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks!
00:12:10Sir, we are so honored by your visit.
00:12:14Sir, we are so honored by your visit.
00:12:14My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:16I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:20Mr. Clark, is there anything else you require?
00:12:24My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:26No, thank you.
00:12:27No, thank you.
00:12:27You can go down.
00:12:28Of course.
00:12:36A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:41Unprofessional.
00:12:42I'm suspending the $100 million deal.
00:12:44We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:47Yes, sir.
00:12:49Mr. Brooks, I...
00:12:53Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:54Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:56The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, all right?
00:13:01You've got to fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated,
00:13:04or I swear I'm going to slip...
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us...
00:13:11One million.
00:13:12In full.
00:13:13Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:20You arrogant son of a bitch!
00:13:26I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:28I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together,
00:13:31you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:38The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:40But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:42That useless piece of junk,
00:13:43how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:45Oh, I don't know.
00:13:46Maybe about a hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:55Have you lost your mind?
00:13:58A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:01Julian.
00:14:02The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:07That's illegal!
00:14:08So, him extorting me for a million was legal, then, right?
00:14:12By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:14Huh?
00:14:16That's a kisser.
00:14:16Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:19You know, I know you think you're right,
00:14:21what, a stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:25A hundred million dollars?
00:14:27I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:29Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much,
00:14:32but this isn't a standard.
00:14:34What is it, made of gold?
00:14:35Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:38You know what?
00:14:39You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:48Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:50That's Bill Sullivan, SVP for Stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the $300 million partner you should do?
00:14:56$300 million?
00:14:57That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:04Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:06I'm Sabrina Harper, uh, CEO.
00:15:09Do...
00:15:09What do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark,
00:15:11our security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device,
00:15:14and the signal originated here.
00:15:16We were concerned for your safety and care immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian, too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you all right?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:28It just took a fall.
00:15:31God, this damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components,
00:15:35preliminary repair estimate,
00:15:37this could be $30 million.
00:15:41$30 million?
00:15:43No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:43To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:45That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:48Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50I'll open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop
00:15:52with Stellar's quantum processors
00:15:54and proprietary components.
00:15:55You better pray
00:15:56that those data partitions are intact,
00:15:58or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I just had the critical,
00:16:01critical data corruption here.
00:16:03It's highly confidential files,
00:16:06high market value.
00:16:07I mean, with our declarations,
00:16:09this is at least $70 million.
00:16:13That's $70 million!
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop
00:16:18registered with monetary values
00:16:19to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:24Here.
00:16:25Receipts for the hardware
00:16:26and the notarized value declarations
00:16:28for the data.
00:16:29See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around
00:16:40a $100 million laptop?
00:16:45Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact,
00:16:50can we stay on topic
00:16:50about my compensation?
00:16:52There's no way
00:16:52that there's a fucking laptop
00:16:54that costs $100 million.
00:16:55You know what?
00:16:56This is a fucking scam.
00:16:57These two,
00:16:57they're working together.
00:16:59I'm telling you,
00:16:59it's a con.
00:17:00Are you serious?
00:17:01I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:02I'm the senior vice president
00:17:03of Stellar.
00:17:04I don't fly across the city
00:17:06of Skim and nobody like you.
00:17:07Listen,
00:17:08I'm so...
00:17:09This Harper,
00:17:10this is the employee you hire.
00:17:12He's a fool.
00:17:13And it speaks volumes
00:17:15about your company's judgment.
00:17:16Oh, by the way,
00:17:17our partnership deal?
00:17:19Consider it terminated.
00:17:20What?
00:17:21Um, Mr. Sullivan,
00:17:23please.
00:17:24Damien is just...
00:17:25He's stressed.
00:17:26He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it.
00:17:28You take care of
00:17:29Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:31You,
00:17:32if you dispute evaluations,
00:17:34we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team
00:17:36has 965 lawyers.
00:17:38I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Stellar's legal team
00:17:44is legendary.
00:17:45He never lost.
00:17:46Damien can't fight this.
00:17:48Hell,
00:17:49the entire Harper Enterprise
00:17:50doesn't have the resources
00:17:51to fight this.
00:17:52He's done for.
00:17:55So,
00:17:56may I help?
00:17:57Please.
00:18:01Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:07Harper Enterprise
00:18:08will provide full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:11I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:13You need to discuss details
00:18:14with the laptop owner.
00:18:18Full payment
00:18:19in my account
00:18:20within three days.
00:18:23In that case,
00:18:24we're done here.
00:18:25Mr. Clark,
00:18:26you call me with anything else?
00:18:28I'll do.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:30Mr. Harper...
00:18:32Get your house in order first.
00:18:34Stellar has standards.
00:18:35We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:38That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40That's funny.
00:18:42Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:43A hundred million on the line
00:18:44and you swoop in the cover for him.
00:18:46You know,
00:18:47I just hope that your father
00:18:48and your grandfather
00:18:49are as generous as you are.
00:18:52Whether her father
00:18:53or Chairman Harper
00:18:54approve is none of your
00:18:55goddamn business!
00:18:56We don't need someone like you
00:18:58worrying about it!
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian,
00:19:01I give you my word.
00:19:02The full amount
00:19:03will be paid within three days.
00:19:04But under one condition.
00:19:06Our engagement
00:19:07ends for good.
00:19:09And you
00:19:10will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:12Now.
00:19:13You hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know,
00:19:15I'll admit it.
00:19:15Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:16But it's not about what you made.
00:19:17It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:19And now you're just
00:19:19a spoiled little trust fund baby
00:19:20who's been fired.
00:19:21So get the fuck out!
00:19:24Get the fuck out?
00:19:26One of us
00:19:27just torpedoed
00:19:28a hundred million dollar loan
00:19:29and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me,
00:19:32which one of us
00:19:33should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena,
00:19:35I think it is actually time
00:19:36to call your grandfather.
00:19:37He could definitely
00:19:38settle all of this.
00:19:42Stop.
00:19:43Stop!
00:19:48This boy toy
00:19:49thinks he has the fucking right
00:19:50to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:52Who gives you
00:19:52the goddamn right?
00:19:55Funny.
00:19:56Guy hides behind a woman
00:19:57to pay his bill.
00:19:58Remind me,
00:19:59which one of us
00:19:59is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:13Get the fuck out!
00:20:15Julian,
00:20:15I don't care
00:20:16what kind of connections
00:20:17you think you have.
00:20:18This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:20I'm the one
00:20:21in charge here.
00:20:23Security,
00:20:24remove him.
00:20:27Julian,
00:20:28please,
00:20:29don't make us get physical.
00:20:30I'm the one
00:20:31Chairman Harper
00:20:31personally brought in.
00:20:32You really want to
00:20:33lay hands on me?
00:20:35Sharon Harper
00:20:36brought you in.
00:20:37Julian,
00:20:38have you lost
00:20:38your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think
00:20:41you are?
00:20:41You think
00:20:42you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian,
00:20:44I've already given you
00:20:45more courtesy
00:20:45than you deserve.
00:20:46The more you cling on
00:20:47like this,
00:20:48the more disgusting
00:20:49you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55Looks like
00:20:55I won't need
00:20:56that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth,
00:20:57huh?
00:20:58Move.
00:20:59Get the fuck out of here.
00:21:00Hey.
00:21:02Hey.
00:21:03Hey.
00:21:05What the hell
00:21:06is going on
00:21:06in here?
00:21:09Stand down.
00:21:10All of you.
00:21:11You,
00:21:12out of here.
00:21:12Now.
00:21:13Dad,
00:21:14Grandpa,
00:21:14what are you
00:21:15doing here?
00:21:21Julian,
00:21:22I've been filled in
00:21:23on everything
00:21:24that's gone on today.
00:21:26I know that
00:21:26you've been wronged
00:21:27by this guy.
00:21:30Please accept
00:21:31my apology
00:21:32for everything.
00:21:34Chairman Harper
00:21:36apologizing
00:21:37to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa,
00:21:39what are you doing?
00:21:42Chairman Harper,
00:21:43he's a loser
00:21:43who's addicted
00:21:44to playing games.
00:21:45How could you
00:21:46possibly?
00:21:47Shut up.
00:21:54I'm sorry.
00:21:55How dare you
00:21:57disrespect Julian?
00:21:58Dad,
00:21:58I don't care
00:21:58what kind of background
00:21:59Julian has.
00:22:00You can't just hit people.
00:22:01I wish we hit him more.
00:22:03Serena,
00:22:04do you even have
00:22:05any idea
00:22:06who Julian Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't tell you
00:22:09everything because
00:22:09of your ego.
00:22:10And I didn't want
00:22:11to hurt your feelings.
00:22:12We're going to announce
00:22:13everything
00:22:13once the engagement
00:22:14was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:17Serena,
00:22:18you've been blind.
00:22:20Julian is...
00:22:21Thomas,
00:22:21you can't force
00:22:22something that isn't there.
00:22:23No real feelings.
00:22:25No need to go forward
00:22:25with the engagement.
00:22:27Julian,
00:22:28please,
00:22:28understand,
00:22:29all of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's
00:22:32happened here today
00:22:33is the fault
00:22:33of the Harperfin.
00:22:35Give me a chance
00:22:36to make it right.
00:22:41Apologize to Julian,
00:22:42now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care
00:22:45who you are, Julian.
00:22:47To me,
00:22:47you're still just
00:22:48a spoiled brat
00:22:49who thinks of himself
00:22:50as some sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality,
00:22:53all you know
00:22:55is playing video games.
00:22:57I see right through you
00:22:59and I will not
00:23:00apologize to you!
00:23:02Serena!
00:23:02Enough!
00:23:03Julian,
00:23:04she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Save it.
00:23:08If Serena can't manage
00:23:09an apology herself,
00:23:11then I have no reason
00:23:12to protect this company
00:23:13anymore.
00:23:15Issue my order
00:23:16to suspend all support
00:23:18for Harper Enterprise,
00:23:19cease every protective
00:23:20measure effective
00:23:21immediately.
00:23:22Julian,
00:23:23please,
00:23:24don't!
00:23:24Without you,
00:23:25this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:33No, no, no, no, no.
00:23:34What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you would've
00:23:36just pulled the orders.
00:23:37What do you mean?
00:23:38Hostile takeover.
00:23:39All of our investors
00:23:40pulled out.
00:23:41How can that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise stock
00:23:47plunges 30% in minutes,
00:23:49wiping out billions
00:23:50in market value.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52My entire division
00:23:53just stopped.
00:23:54We can't operate like this.
00:23:55A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's
00:23:58many allies withdraw
00:23:59their investments
00:24:00in an instant,
00:24:01leaving the group
00:24:02facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be all these months
00:24:05the company's been
00:24:06supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:10Why did Harper Enterprise
00:24:11suddenly lose power?
00:24:13What caused them
00:24:14to lose their backing?
00:24:16How is that possible?
00:24:19Are you attacking
00:24:20the company?
00:24:20No matter who is
00:24:21behind this,
00:24:22I, Serena,
00:24:23will never
00:24:23bow down to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise
00:24:28will not yield
00:24:29to any market attacks.
00:24:30Do whatever it takes
00:24:31to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:32Miss Harper,
00:24:33this isn't a race.
00:24:34Our major partners
00:24:35are terminating
00:24:36their contracts.
00:24:37and our own liquidity
00:24:38can't cover the gas.
00:24:40If this continues,
00:24:41the stock will crash
00:24:42straight through the floor!
00:24:44What did you say?
00:24:46Dammit!
00:24:47How could that trash
00:24:48have such kind of power?
00:24:50Why him?
00:24:51I won't accept this!
00:24:52I won't!
00:24:52Serena,
00:24:53how can you stand there
00:24:54and watch Harper Enterprises
00:24:56burn to the ground
00:24:57around your feet?
00:24:58Apologize to Julian!
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena,
00:25:05apologize.
00:25:18Serena!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Do not apologize!
00:25:21Serena!
00:25:21Harper Enterprises
00:25:21worth hundreds of billions
00:25:23of dollars!
00:25:24You really think
00:25:24we can't survive
00:25:25without him?
00:25:26Let's just get through
00:25:27this crisis
00:25:27and I swear
00:25:28I will make him pay
00:25:29for everything
00:25:29that he has done
00:25:31to you!
00:25:31No!
00:25:35It's not your fucking fault!
00:25:36You apologize to Julian
00:25:37right now!
00:25:38Get on your knees!
00:25:40Dad!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:43Dad, stop!
00:25:45Damien has only ever
00:25:46stood up for me!
00:25:47He is the only one
00:25:47who actually cares about me
00:25:49and I won't let you
00:25:49trade him like this!
00:25:50Stay out of the way!
00:25:51No!
00:25:53Are you really
00:25:54going to go to war
00:25:54with Julian
00:25:55over this snake?
00:25:57Do you even have
00:25:58any idea
00:25:58who he really is?
00:26:00Whoever he is
00:26:00it doesn't give him
00:26:01the right to just
00:26:02bully people like this!
00:26:03I cannot stand
00:26:05bullies who throw
00:26:06their weight around
00:26:06and today that is
00:26:07exactly what you
00:26:09look like to me!
00:26:10Serena, that is enough!
00:26:11You hate bullies
00:26:12who throw their weight around,
00:26:13right?
00:26:14What about this guy?
00:26:15What about him?
00:26:16He hides behind
00:26:17your name
00:26:17to steal other
00:26:18people's work.
00:26:19He throws tea on me
00:26:20in this very room.
00:26:21He squeezes a million
00:26:22dollars out of me
00:26:22just for a
00:26:23hundred thousand dollar
00:26:24watch.
00:26:24Don't you think
00:26:25that's bullying?
00:26:26Oh, I...
00:26:28But you hate
00:26:29bullies, right?
00:26:31Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:33You're just biased.
00:26:36You know, I've been
00:26:36engaged to you
00:26:37for the past six months.
00:26:39I have asked you out
00:26:40thirty-seven times.
00:26:42Yeah, because I thought
00:26:42we should at least
00:26:43get to know each other.
00:26:44Every time,
00:26:45I have asked you out.
00:26:46You said,
00:26:47I'm too busy with work.
00:26:48But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:50The truth is,
00:26:51is that you were too busy
00:26:52dating this sycophant.
00:26:54Listen to him
00:26:54and sing your praises,
00:26:55right?
00:26:58Who's that?
00:26:59Oh, let me guess.
00:27:00Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:05Just ignore him.
00:27:06Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:09Is it okay you still
00:27:10keep blowing him off?
00:27:13I just...
00:27:14I can't stand him.
00:27:15A spoiled heir
00:27:16who thinks the world
00:27:17revolves around him?
00:27:20So what if I did?
00:27:22Who I choose to hang out with
00:27:24is my own choice.
00:27:25We're engaged,
00:27:26not married.
00:27:27I can see whoever I want.
00:27:30Serena, shut up.
00:27:32No, I am not done.
00:27:34Damien has worked himself
00:27:36to the bone.
00:27:37He is driven
00:27:38and disciplined
00:27:39and when Harper
00:27:40first went public,
00:27:41he was a key reason
00:27:42that we made it.
00:27:43If you had even
00:27:44half his talent, Julian,
00:27:46maybe I would have said
00:27:47yes to it once.
00:27:49But you don't.
00:27:53Damien was a key reason
00:27:54you made it.
00:27:55That's your story, right?
00:27:56What is so funny?
00:27:57I mean,
00:27:58I'm laughing
00:27:58at just how foolish
00:28:00you are.
00:28:01Do you know why
00:28:02for the past six months
00:28:03all of your proposals
00:28:05have sailed through?
00:28:06Why every deal
00:28:07that you like
00:28:08happened to have closed?
00:28:09Why every time
00:28:10that you wanted a loan,
00:28:11the banks rolled out
00:28:12a special fast track
00:28:13for you?
00:28:13Because Damien
00:28:14is brilliant.
00:28:15Because he has cleared
00:28:16every obstacle
00:28:17in my way.
00:28:18Damien?
00:28:19Brilliant?
00:28:20That was Julian.
00:28:22Julian is the one
00:28:24who quietly has held
00:28:25this entire thing together.
00:28:27Serena.
00:28:29No, that is impossible.
00:28:31I don't believe it.
00:28:41Hey.
00:28:42Hi's up, Serena.
00:28:43In the past six months,
00:28:45I've called in 47
00:28:46separate connections
00:28:47and cleared a path for you.
00:28:48Oh, I put Harper Enterprise
00:28:49on the exchange.
00:28:50And you know,
00:28:51I made you
00:28:51Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:53That's Iron Gate,
00:28:54North Bridge,
00:28:55and even Silver Line.
00:28:56Those are all
00:28:57the top 50 global giants.
00:28:58They've all been
00:28:59backing us
00:28:59behind the scenes?
00:29:00No wonder
00:29:01every project
00:29:02went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian's the one
00:29:04with this kind of network.
00:29:05Damien's got some nerves
00:29:06stealing credit
00:29:07for something like this.
00:29:08That's a death wish.
00:29:12No, no, no.
00:29:13It's not true, huh?
00:29:15Harper Enterprise
00:29:15is what it is
00:29:16because of me
00:29:17and my hard work
00:29:18and my connections.
00:29:19You period fool.
00:29:22Did you think
00:29:23you could step in here
00:29:24and steal credit
00:29:24from everything?
00:29:31All right,
00:29:32that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the
00:29:35all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:36I can go home.
00:29:37So as of right now,
00:29:39our engagement
00:29:39is terminated.
00:29:41Julian,
00:29:42all of this
00:29:42has been our fault.
00:29:43But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a fiancé
00:29:47who uses his family background
00:29:48to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections
00:29:53and my network,
00:29:55Harper Enterprise's
00:29:55stock is going to
00:29:56keep falling.
00:29:57And it's going to go
00:29:58right back to where
00:29:59it was six months ago.
00:30:01What?
00:30:02What?
00:30:02What the heck?
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian.
00:30:06Julian.
00:30:07That's it.
00:30:08Julian.
00:30:11Serena.
00:30:13You silly,
00:30:14foolish,
00:30:15foolish girl.
00:30:16Grandpa,
00:30:17I have never
00:30:18been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him,
00:30:20I will lead Harper Enterprise
00:30:21back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:23Mr. Harper,
00:30:24Chairman Harper,
00:30:25I'm going to stand
00:30:25by Serena's side
00:30:26and I'm going to give her
00:30:27everything that I've got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to beat the crap
00:30:31out of you once and for all.
00:30:33Dad,
00:30:34that is enough.
00:30:35Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you have
00:30:39your issues with Damien
00:30:40but I believe
00:30:41he will prove himself
00:30:42to you
00:30:43and so will I.
00:30:46I will show
00:30:47everyone here
00:30:48that what Harper
00:30:48achieved over the past
00:30:49six months
00:30:50was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing
00:30:52to do with Julian.
00:30:54This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena,
00:30:57wait up.
00:30:59You.
00:31:00God.
00:31:00Tell me what to do
00:31:01with this reckless
00:31:03granddaughter.
00:31:07Serena.
00:31:08Serena.
00:31:09Don't even worry
00:31:10about that.
00:31:11I know our enterprise
00:31:11took a huge hit today
00:31:12but as long as we
00:31:13lock down Amber Group's
00:31:14Crescent Lake project,
00:31:15change the game
00:31:16and everyone will still
00:31:17think that we're
00:31:18in control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3 billion
00:31:21Crescent Lake project.
00:31:23If we can win
00:31:24that contract,
00:31:25we can wipe
00:31:26all the problems
00:31:27we've been facing.
00:31:28Damien,
00:31:29you've secured
00:31:30several of Amber Group's
00:31:31projects before
00:31:32and I'm going to put
00:31:33this one in your hands too.
00:31:35It's not going to be
00:31:36a problem, right?
00:31:36No, no, absolutely.
00:31:37You're going to count on me.
00:31:38Amber Group's
00:31:39deputy VP of projects
00:31:41and he trusts me
00:31:42clearly.
00:31:44He also spit his eyes.
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake
00:31:53contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:55Once the Harper team arrives,
00:31:57we hand it straight to them.
00:31:58Miss Lawson,
00:31:59we just got an update.
00:32:00Julian Clark has been
00:32:01kicked out of
00:32:02Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him
00:32:05and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she listened
00:32:12to her assistant Damien
00:32:13who really stirred the pot
00:32:14and then Serena
00:32:15personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks
00:32:18she got where she is
00:32:19because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your little lap dog?
00:32:22Then do we still hand
00:32:24the Crescent Lake project
00:32:25over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:26Without Julian,
00:32:28Harper Enterprise really thinks
00:32:29it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:32Open it to public video.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:42Now that is an amazing shot,
00:32:44Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien,
00:32:46Crescent Lake's public bid
00:32:48is coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:05Damien?
00:33:06What does this mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks,
00:33:08why don't you do yourself
00:33:09a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:13That's one million
00:33:14in clean crypto,
00:33:16untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise
00:33:18is totally prepared
00:33:19to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:21We just need you
00:33:23to give us a little
00:33:23extra attention.
00:33:25Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:28Sure, it's a public bidding
00:33:30on paper,
00:33:31but as long as I'm here,
00:33:34you've got nothing
00:33:34to worry about.
00:33:36Sit tight.
00:33:38Contract's yours.
00:33:41Miss Larson usually
00:33:43hands Harper Enterprises
00:33:44whatever they want anyway.
00:33:46Well,
00:33:48thank you very much,
00:33:49Mr. Brooks.
00:34:16Well,
00:34:17wow.
00:34:19Brent's Jillian.
00:34:21All right,
00:34:22Serena kicked you out.
00:34:24Six months of hard work
00:34:26down the drain.
00:34:27What does that feel?
00:34:30Oh, I see.
00:34:31So you brought me
00:34:32to your party
00:34:33just to mock me
00:34:34a little bit.
00:34:34Is that right?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:36Not.
00:34:40I'm here to steal you.
00:34:42You see,
00:34:44since your engagement
00:34:46is off,
00:34:47I was thinking
00:34:49how about you
00:34:50consider me, huh?
00:34:54Guys like us,
00:34:55we don't get
00:34:56to escape alliances.
00:34:57Our families
00:34:58will bear us
00:34:59off either way,
00:35:00so
00:35:02why pick a stranger
00:35:03when there's someone
00:35:05who
00:35:06actually knows you?
00:35:07you see?
00:35:09Childhood friends,
00:35:11same circles,
00:35:1415 years of school.
00:35:16We match,
00:35:18you know?
00:35:19We fit.
00:35:21Hang on.
00:35:23Nora,
00:35:23are you saying this
00:35:24because you're drunk
00:35:25or do you...
00:35:26shh.
00:35:33I'm not drunk.
00:35:35Okay?
00:35:36You don't have to
00:35:37answer me tonight,
00:35:38just
00:35:38think about it.
00:35:40what?
00:35:49I can't
00:35:51But I'm not drunk.
00:35:52I'm not drunk.
00:35:53I'm not drunk,
00:35:54I'm not drunk.
00:35:57I'm not drunk.
00:36:11I told you, I'm not drunk.
00:36:13All right, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:16Oh, shit.
00:36:17I'm drunk.
00:36:19All right, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:21Oh, shit.
00:36:23I'm drunk.
00:36:39Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO.
00:36:42Allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:46Oh, I am so sorry.
00:36:48Bad, bad timing.
00:36:49Truly terrible timing.
00:36:58Don't.
00:37:00If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:03Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:05Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:09Remember, Mom, those tomorrow's company's visibility,
00:37:12but I'm not letting the pictures of my breast go through.
00:37:15Okay.
00:37:16Okay.
00:37:19But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night,
00:37:26I think my heart's going to skip on my chest.
00:37:41And suffer, okay?
00:37:44If you push me,
00:37:45I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:52Please,
00:37:55walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:10Speak of the devil of all good times.
00:38:19No, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:22You know what I lost?
00:38:23Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:27Oh, wait.
00:38:30Oh, well, well.
00:38:32I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time.
00:38:36Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all.
00:38:38Can I help you with something?
00:38:41Seriously?
00:38:42This woman's even prettier than Serena.
00:38:44How does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:49Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here,
00:38:52she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:55Pouring herself out like this?
00:38:58It's been vaulting her.
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:01Now I hear your company's looking to bid
00:39:03on Amber Group's Crescent League project.
00:39:09What, you're bidding too?
00:39:10Yeah, I know you got connection,
00:39:12and that's great, you know,
00:39:13but you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:15Me, I got real talent, all right?
00:39:17And I'm gonna win Crescent League for Serena.
00:39:19You, you're just gonna fucking lose
00:39:21like you lose everything else.
00:39:24Good luck.
00:39:36See that?
00:39:37That is a shameless whore.
00:39:40That woman seems familiar.
00:39:42So, man, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:46All right, come on.
00:39:47Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:48Let's go socialize,
00:39:49and maybe we'll run into the host of the party
00:39:51lost in herself.
00:39:53And if we do,
00:39:55I'll make sure we're going to go to brush.
00:40:14So, that pretty boy Damien
00:40:15actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:19Tonight we're going to see
00:40:20who's really on top.
00:40:22Okay.
00:40:23Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:25What?
00:40:26You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:28Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:30But,
00:40:31if you like glassy,
00:40:33I can do glassy.
00:40:35Okay.
00:40:36You can do glassy?
00:40:37Miss Lawson,
00:40:38it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:45I'll let you get to it.
00:40:50Sally?
00:41:07Julian.
00:41:11I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:12You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:17You know what?
00:41:18Mason Brooks,
00:41:19Amber Group's
00:41:20deputy VP of projects,
00:41:22already agreed to award the contract
00:41:24to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:26You can't win.
00:41:31I hear the Crescent Lake project
00:41:33is basically yours.
00:41:34Congratulations.
00:41:35Serena,
00:41:36you are the business queen of Wall Street,
00:41:38and with Damien backing you up,
00:41:40it's unstoppable.
00:41:41When the two of you take off,
00:41:42don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:44Of course.
00:41:45You know,
00:41:45we're going to take care of you guys.
00:41:46Thank you so much.
00:41:54See that, Julian?
00:41:56Everybody already knows
00:41:57that Crescent Lake belongs
00:41:58to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:59I suggest you walk out of here
00:42:00before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:42:02It's funny.
00:42:03You see,
00:42:04my Clark Group
00:42:05has deeper capital,
00:42:06better tech,
00:42:07and a stronger global record
00:42:09than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:10so I'm just curious.
00:42:11Why would Mason Brooks
00:42:12go with you guys?
00:42:14He recognizes Damien's talent,
00:42:15of course.
00:42:21I need to take this.
00:42:28Hi, Julian.
00:42:32What century are you living in?
00:42:35You really think that capital
00:42:36and technology
00:42:37wins contracts anymore?
00:42:38Then what does?
00:42:40Ain't really that fucking stupid?
00:42:42Of course this.
00:42:45I paid Mason Brooks
00:42:46one million in crypto.
00:42:48What do you have
00:42:49that's going to be that?
00:42:51You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:54That's impossible.
00:42:55He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56That's impossible.
00:42:57He wouldn't dare.
00:42:58Yeah, you want to understand
00:42:59the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:43:01But hey,
00:43:02you're a very lovely,
00:43:04beautiful escort.
00:43:05Why don't you do us all a favor,
00:43:06get up on that stage
00:43:07and give us a nice little
00:43:08poll show.
00:43:09Hey.
00:43:10Hey,
00:43:10I'm going to tell you,
00:43:11you want to know why
00:43:12I keep winning
00:43:13Amber Group deals?
00:43:15Because every time
00:43:16I give Mason Brooks
00:43:17a nice little fortune,
00:43:21capital technology
00:43:24is useless.
00:43:25Fucking trash!
00:43:28Mason Brooks,
00:43:29you've got a lot on there.
00:43:31He's finished.
00:43:32Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:34Who the fuck is this?
00:43:36Who are you?
00:43:37What do you think?
00:43:37You're the Amber Group's
00:43:38CEO or something?
00:43:41Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:42It's adorable, no?
00:43:43Amber Group's
00:43:45anti-corruption code did.
00:43:47It's anti-corruption.
00:43:49No.
00:44:02What are you going to report,
00:44:03Mr. Brooks?
00:44:07You hit me.
00:44:09You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:11I'm going to have Mason Brooks
00:44:12crush you
00:44:13with one phone call.
00:44:17There he is.
00:44:18Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:19You're finished.
00:44:22Mr. Brooks.
00:44:23You mean my friend?
00:44:24There's a woman here.
00:44:26She says she's going to report to you.
00:44:27Come on, please.
00:44:27Teach her a lesson.
00:44:28Oh, report me?
00:44:30Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:31This woman right here.
00:44:35Miss
00:44:36Lawson?
00:44:36She's even quoting
00:44:37the anti-corruption code
00:44:39like she's somebody.
00:44:39Like, how fucking ridiculous.
00:44:41What?
00:44:42What?
00:44:44This...
00:44:45This...
00:44:45This can't be...
00:44:49Go ahead.
00:44:50Laugh.
00:44:51Laugh some more.
00:44:52Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:54You'll say anything out loud.
00:44:55Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:56She's just some gold-dicking whore.
00:44:58I mean, even if she rats you out,
00:45:00who's going to believe this?
00:45:02Why are you kidding me?
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:05When did I ever take your money?
00:45:06I never took one cent.
00:45:09Say it again,
00:45:10and I'll bury you.
00:45:11Idiot!
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15Miss Lawson, this...
00:45:16This Damien,
00:45:17he's a lunatic.
00:45:18He's making things up.
00:45:20Don't listen to him.
00:45:20I swear,
00:45:22I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:24Not once!
00:45:27Miss Lawson?
00:45:30No, no, wait.
00:45:31You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:32Amber's group CEO?
00:45:34How is that possible?
00:45:35How is that fucking...
00:45:36Mr. Brooks?
00:45:37Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:39Thank you so much for awarding
00:45:41the Crescent Lake Project
00:45:42to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:43We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:47Stop!
00:45:48Shut the fuck up!
00:45:50When did I ever give you anything?
00:45:54Miss Lawson?
00:45:55These Harper Enterprise people,
00:45:57they're all out of their minds.
00:45:59They lie like the wind.
00:46:01I can't believe a word they say.
00:46:03Miss Lawson?
00:46:05Miss Lawson?
00:46:07She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:20Miss Lawson, I am so sorry.
00:46:23Damien didn't know who you were,
00:46:25so he thought that you and Julian
00:46:27were being inappropriate.
00:46:29But I'll make him apologize right now.
00:46:33He is blunt, yes.
00:46:35But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:38Please,
00:46:39give Harper Enterprise the contract,
00:46:41and I promise we will deliver results
00:46:44that satisfy you.
00:46:45Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course.
00:46:50If not,
00:46:51why would Mason Brooks have handed him
00:46:52so many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out.
00:47:02Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh, shit.
00:47:07I can't let her find out
00:47:08I secured every project right.
00:47:10So she's upset because
00:47:12I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:13So she wants revenge.
00:47:15So she's going to embarrass
00:47:16Harper Enterprise in front of everyone.
00:47:17So what we need to do
00:47:18is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:19Let's go.
00:47:20Go?
00:47:21If we don't win Crescent Lake,
00:47:23Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:26Even if Miss Lawson
00:47:27is trying to punish us,
00:47:28we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:29Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay?
00:47:30I'm sorry.
00:47:32Here we go now.
00:47:33All right?
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects,
00:47:35the biggest ones,
00:47:35but we need to go now.
00:47:36Come on.
00:47:37What is wrong with you today?
00:47:39Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:41I...
00:47:54You want to understand
00:47:55the rules on top there,
00:47:56sweetheart?
00:47:58Technology capital.
00:48:00Useless fucking trash.
00:48:02What?
00:48:03Shit!
00:48:03She actually recorded it?
00:48:05And escort.
00:48:06So why don't you do us
00:48:07all a nice little favor?
00:48:08Get up on that stage
00:48:09and give us a nice little
00:48:10whole show.
00:48:13Who is that?
00:48:15He bribed Mason Brooks
00:48:17for contracts?
00:48:18That's Damian Blackwell.
00:48:19Harper Enterprise's
00:48:20executive assistant.
00:48:21How do you not know him?
00:48:22All of the best Amber projects
00:48:24being sent to Harper
00:48:25Enterprise over the past
00:48:26six months,
00:48:27and now we know
00:48:28they were bought.
00:48:31That's not true.
00:48:32All of that's a lie.
00:48:33Just don't...
00:48:34Just don't believe it.
00:48:35Just turn it up.
00:48:36Turn it up right now!
00:48:37Stop him!
00:48:39Let go of me!
00:48:42Damian, you did this
00:48:43behind my back?
00:48:44This is your talent?
00:48:45Your ability?
00:48:47Serena, please just...
00:48:49Mr. Brooks is very simple.
00:48:51What a fucking routine.
00:48:52Listen to Sammy.
00:48:52Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think?
00:48:55You're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:57Amber...
00:48:57Turn it off, please.
00:48:59Okay.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:01Miss Lawson, please.
00:49:01Just turn it off.
00:49:02Just...
00:49:03Please stop it!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:06Bribery is one thing,
00:49:07but mistaking Miss Lawson
00:49:09for an escort?
00:49:10A whore?
00:49:12He's fucking blind.
00:49:13The best part?
00:49:14He confessed right in front of her
00:49:16that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:18Genius!
00:49:19And Serena trusted him
00:49:20to be her assistant?
00:49:21I mean, what does that say
00:49:22about her judgment?
00:49:24Damian,
00:49:25you have disappointed me
00:49:27beyond words.
00:49:28Serena, I did it
00:49:29because I cared about you.
00:49:30Because I care about
00:49:31Harper Enterprise.
00:49:32Please, I'm...
00:49:32I'm telling you the truth.
00:49:34Enough.
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:37Mason Brooks,
00:49:38you're fired.
00:49:40Effective immediately.
00:49:42I'm done.
00:49:44The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:47Harper Enterprise
00:49:48is disqualified.
00:49:50Every single project
00:49:51Amber Group has done
00:49:52together with them
00:49:53will be suspended.
00:49:55The projects will be back
00:49:56for competitive bidding.
00:50:00No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:02Those projects
00:50:02are our next three years.
00:50:04They affect thousands
00:50:05of employees.
00:50:06Their lives are future.
00:50:07And why the person
00:50:09who hired trash
00:50:10Russians
00:50:10called it talent.
00:50:12Real talent.
00:50:20Pathetic.
00:50:25Serena.
00:50:28Please, you gotta
00:50:29let me explain.
00:50:31Miss Lawson, wait.
00:50:32Serena!
00:50:35Serena!
00:50:41I just avenged you
00:50:43in front of a lot
00:50:44of people.
00:50:45Asking for our dinner
00:50:46isn't too much, right?
00:50:47Not at all.
00:50:49You pick.
00:50:50My treat.
00:50:51Generous.
00:50:52Let's go.
00:50:53Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:57Miss Lawson,
00:50:59Damien was wrong
00:51:01to bribe anyone
00:51:02and I apologize
00:51:03apologize on his behalf.
00:51:05Just please
00:51:06give Harper Enterprise
00:51:08another chance.
00:51:09I will meet
00:51:11the highest standards.
00:51:12I will deliver
00:51:12a perfect result
00:51:13on every project.
00:51:15Perfect result?
00:51:16And what exactly
00:51:18guarantees that?
00:51:19Your empty suit
00:51:20assistant?
00:51:22Miss Lawson,
00:51:24Damien made
00:51:25a mistake.
00:51:27But his ability
00:51:28is exceptional.
00:51:30For six months,
00:51:31he managed
00:51:32every Harper
00:51:33Enterprise project
00:51:33flawlessly.
00:51:34No errors,
00:51:35no delays.
00:51:36If you don't pull
00:51:37this contract,
00:51:38I guarantee
00:51:39he will make sure
00:51:40you see his value.
00:51:44managed flawlessly.
00:51:46He's not the only
00:51:47empty suit here.
00:51:49You're too.
00:51:51Miss Lawson,
00:51:52you are crossing
00:51:53a line.
00:51:56I understand
00:51:56that you
00:51:58and Julian
00:51:58are close
00:51:59and you want
00:52:00to get back
00:52:00at me for him.
00:52:01But humiliating
00:52:02someone like this,
00:52:03isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:04You really think
00:52:05I froze
00:52:06our cooperation
00:52:07because Damien,
00:52:08right, Mason?
00:52:10Wasn't that
00:52:11the reason?
00:52:12For six months,
00:52:14Harper Enterprise
00:52:15got everything
00:52:16it wanted
00:52:17from Ember Group.
00:52:19For one reason,
00:52:21Julian Clark.
00:52:23Damien
00:52:24has nothing
00:52:25to do with that.
00:52:26He was just
00:52:27a messenger boy
00:52:28who picked up
00:52:28the contracts.
00:52:30What?
00:52:30When Julian
00:52:31was there,
00:52:32bribe or no bribe,
00:52:34Harper Enterprise
00:52:35got the deals
00:52:36anyway.
00:52:37But now,
00:52:38Julian's gone,
00:52:39so the special
00:52:40treatment
00:52:42Damien's little
00:52:43arriving incident,
00:52:44it was just
00:52:45a convenient
00:52:45excuse to take
00:52:46everything back.
00:52:47Understand now?
00:52:52And about those
00:52:53flawless projects,
00:52:55Harper Enterprise
00:52:56didn't run smoothly
00:52:57because Damien
00:52:58is brilliant.
00:53:00It ran smoothly
00:53:01because Julian
00:53:01called every partner,
00:53:04every supplier,
00:53:05every gatekeeper
00:53:06and cleared
00:53:07and cleared
00:53:07the path
00:53:07for you.
00:53:08Damien
00:53:09had nothing
00:53:10to do
00:53:11with that.
00:53:12No.
00:53:15That's not true.
00:53:16I don't believe it.
00:53:17You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch.
00:53:20Watch what happens
00:53:22when Julian leaves.
00:53:24Let's see if
00:53:25your exceptional
00:53:25Damien
00:53:26can keep
00:53:26everything perfect
00:53:27when Julian
00:53:29is not there
00:53:29to hold
00:53:30the world
00:53:31together for him.
00:53:33Come on,
00:53:34let's go.
00:53:40Julian,
00:53:42is what she's
00:53:43saying true?
00:53:45You were right
00:53:46about one thing,
00:53:46Serena.
00:53:47Julian and I
00:53:48are closer
00:53:49than you thought.
00:53:50That's why
00:53:51it disgusts me
00:53:51watching him
00:53:52waste his life
00:53:53away on a selfish
00:53:55and blind woman
00:53:56like you.
00:54:01Was I wrong?
00:54:02No, no, no,
00:54:03Serena, Serena,
00:54:03do not listen
00:54:04to her nonsense.
00:54:05Harper's success
00:54:06is based off
00:54:07of my hard work.
00:54:09Okay, Nora Lawson,
00:54:09she's attacking
00:54:10and slandering
00:54:11my name
00:54:12to defend.
00:54:13Julian,
00:54:14you have to believe me.
00:54:15Please,
00:54:15you have to understand.
00:54:16Because of you,
00:54:18Crescent Lake
00:54:18is gone.
00:54:19Every Amber
00:54:21project is gone.
00:54:22Harper Enterprise
00:54:23is on the edge
00:54:24of collapse
00:54:25and you're
00:54:25asking me
00:54:26to trust you?
00:54:27How?
00:54:28Tell me how.
00:54:30Please,
00:54:30just listen to me.
00:54:32Okay, yeah,
00:54:32we lost Amber
00:54:33group,
00:54:33but we're not finished.
00:54:35I mean,
00:54:36we still have
00:54:36the partners
00:54:36and the CEOs.
00:54:37I mean,
00:54:37they love me.
00:54:38They absolutely
00:54:38love and adore me.
00:54:41I promise.
00:54:41You know what?
00:54:42Matter of fact,
00:54:43I'm going to call
00:54:43and I'm going to
00:54:44get you some new
00:54:44projects right now.
00:54:49Hello,
00:54:49Mr. Foster.
00:54:50It's Damien here.
00:54:51I hear the Grandview
00:54:52Plaza is taking bids
00:54:53and Harper Enterprise.
00:54:55You know,
00:54:55we would absolutely
00:54:56love.
00:54:57Harper Enterprise?
00:54:58Who the hell is that?
00:54:59You think you're even
00:55:00in the same league
00:55:01as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:04Mr. Foster,
00:55:06what do you mean?
00:55:08Last time we spoke,
00:55:09you said that you
00:55:10believed in the
00:55:11Harper Enterprise
00:55:11and that you would
00:55:12love to work together.
00:55:13Listen up!
00:55:14That's because
00:55:15Julian Clark
00:55:16was in your damn
00:55:17Enterprise.
00:55:17I was giving him
00:55:18respect.
00:55:19You don't flatter
00:55:21yourself,
00:55:22bunch of blind
00:55:22dumbasses.
00:55:23Call me again
00:55:24and I'll block
00:55:25your fucking number.
00:55:27So what really
00:55:27was Julian?
00:55:28No, no.
00:55:29That's not possible.
00:55:31I don't believe that.
00:55:32I don't...
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:34It's Damien.
00:55:35I was hoping to talk
00:55:35about future collaborations.
00:55:37Damien?
00:55:38You've got the
00:55:39fucking nerve
00:55:40to call me?
00:55:41I gave Harper
00:55:42Enterprise Project
00:55:43because of Mr. Clark
00:55:44and then you
00:55:45turned around
00:55:45and claimed
00:55:46you closed the deal?
00:55:48Who gave you
00:55:49the audacity?
00:55:50Shameless trash?
00:55:54Miss Parker.
00:55:56Miss Parker.
00:55:57No.
00:55:57No.
00:55:58God damn it!
00:55:59No, no.
00:56:00I don't believe this.
00:56:01I don't believe
00:56:02this fucking
00:56:02Julian this whole
00:56:04fucking time.
00:56:04God damn it.
00:56:06I'm sorry.
00:56:07I'm sorry.
00:56:08Hello?
00:56:09Mr. Turner.
00:56:10It's Damien.
00:56:11Damien?
00:56:12Who do you think
00:56:13you are, huh?
00:56:13Calling me directly?
00:56:15Learned some manners.
00:56:18Julian was polite
00:56:19enough to tolerate
00:56:20you playing
00:56:20sideman with his
00:56:21fiance.
00:56:21I'm not.
00:56:22You bastard.
00:56:23Tooey.
00:56:25Mr. Turner?
00:56:27Mr. Turner,
00:56:28please.
00:56:31What the fuck
00:56:31is happening?
00:56:39Miss Harper?
00:56:40This is bad.
00:56:41Our partners
00:56:42are flooding us
00:56:43with messages.
00:56:44They're suspending
00:56:44contracts,
00:56:45pulling out
00:56:45of deals.
00:56:46Wait, what is
00:56:47happening?
00:56:48They said before
00:56:49they only worked
00:56:50with Harper Enterprise
00:56:50because Julian
00:56:51Clark backed us.
00:56:52Now that he's gone,
00:56:53they don't trust us
00:56:54with their project.
00:56:56Julian.
00:56:58It's Julian again.
00:57:03It's true.
00:57:05They only gave us
00:57:07deals because of
00:57:08Julian.
00:57:09Julian!
00:57:10No, no, no,
00:57:10no, Sweeney,
00:57:11please, okay?
00:57:12They're just saying
00:57:13that because Julian
00:57:14has been paying them
00:57:14off.
00:57:15Think about it,
00:57:15okay?
00:57:16You know what?
00:57:16Just give me some
00:57:17time and I'll get
00:57:18you some new projects.
00:57:19I'll get you some
00:57:19new projects,
00:57:20I swear.
00:57:20Get away from me!
00:57:23You liar!
00:57:24You fraud,
00:57:25Damien!
00:57:26All those CEOs,
00:57:28they only had you
00:57:29pick up contracts
00:57:30from them
00:57:31and you told me
00:57:32you negotiated
00:57:33the deals.
00:57:34I swear,
00:57:35I didn't know
00:57:36that they would.
00:57:39Get out of my sight.
00:57:42Now!
00:57:55Damn!
00:58:01I was this close
00:58:02to locking Serena
00:58:03down,
00:58:04stepping into
00:58:04the upper circle.
00:58:05I'm not letting
00:58:06it end like this.
00:58:12Serena,
00:58:13you really thought
00:58:14you were smart.
00:58:16But you're really
00:58:17just pathetic,
00:58:19trash.
00:58:21Without Julian,
00:58:23you're nothing.
00:58:33Dad warned you,
00:58:35Grandpa warned you,
00:58:37and you still
00:58:38wouldn't listen.
00:58:41You ignored
00:58:43everything Julian did
00:58:44and worshipped
00:58:45a con artist
00:58:47like Damien.
00:58:49you idiot.
00:58:49Stupid.
00:58:51Stupid.
00:58:56Stupid.
00:59:00Stupid.
00:59:01And now look at you.
00:59:03Projects gone.
00:59:06Company collapsing.
00:59:09Idiot.
00:59:11You arrogant.
00:59:12Stupid.
00:59:14Idiot.
00:59:15I hate it!
00:59:16I'm so stupid.
00:59:23Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:32I'm so sorry.
00:59:33I'm sorry, listen.
00:59:36I know I messed up.
00:59:40Julian.
00:59:45I'm sorry.
00:59:47I know, I know I was wrong.
00:59:49Look.
00:59:50Always damn Julian!
00:59:53Julian.
00:59:56Come back, okay?
00:59:58Please come back.
01:00:04Damn back.
01:00:09You don't have to be scared.
01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business queen.
01:00:14So much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:16Once I lock her down, Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:21Oh, Damien!
01:00:23You sick bastard!
01:00:25You sick bastard!
01:00:30You really mean it.
01:00:32I love you.
01:00:33You fucking...
01:00:34Hey, I'm telling you the truth!
01:00:36I mean it!
01:00:37Okay?
01:00:37I promise.
01:00:39I'll treat you well.
01:00:43You fucking monster dead!
01:00:44Get off me, please!
01:00:46I'm begging you!
01:00:48Don't!
01:00:48Say yes.
01:00:49Please.
01:00:50What are you doing?
01:00:55You're dead!
01:00:56Help me!
01:00:56Help me!
01:00:58I tried being nice to you.
01:00:59I fucking tried!
01:01:01But you keep fighting me back!
01:01:02Help!
01:01:04Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:05Keep fucking screaming!
01:01:07Right?
01:01:09You're not gonna say no.
01:01:11I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:12Help!
01:01:14Help!
01:01:16Julian!
01:01:17Julian!
01:01:18Help!
01:01:21Get him out of here!
01:01:23Stop!
01:01:23Let me go!
01:01:25Julian, you're always putting the fucking lights.
01:01:27This is an over.
01:01:32Julian!
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had that...
01:01:36We are not that close.
01:01:40I was just passing through.
01:01:41I heard some screaming so I stopped by to check.
01:01:44You.
01:01:44I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:46Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:48Yes, sir.
01:01:51Julian!
01:01:52I am sorry.
01:01:54I know.
01:01:55I was wrong.
01:01:57Just...
01:01:58Please come back.
01:01:59Julian!
01:02:01Our reservation is in 10 minutes.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:11Serena.
01:02:13I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:22And you refused to listen.
01:02:25And Julian, if Julian doesn't come along just at the right time...
01:02:30Oh my God.
01:02:32I can't even...
01:02:33I can't even think about it.
01:02:35If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours...
01:02:38One day...
01:02:39You will live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please.
01:02:42Stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong.
01:02:45Okay.
01:02:46I'll...
01:02:46I'll apologize to Julian and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:54The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:03:01Grandpa...
01:03:02Don't worry.
01:03:04I will apologize properly and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:10That's all we can do.
01:03:13So, John...
01:03:14Put out a city-wide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:19He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:22We're not letting that go.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26We're not.
01:03:27Understood.
01:03:59Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:06What is this supposed to be?
01:04:08A gift for you?
01:04:10Myself?
01:04:12I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:14Amber group backs you up.
01:04:16No questions asked.
01:04:18But first...
01:04:19You have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Not really.
01:04:32Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:35You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:38You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped and any man would've, you know,
01:04:44helms me by now.
01:04:46Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:49Hung up?
01:04:52They're all gonna be hung up on Serena.
01:04:53She and I were never romantic.
01:04:56No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:05:00Things are moving too fast.
01:05:02You gotta think twice.
01:05:04But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some all-money perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about? Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:20My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger. I want you. I love you.
01:05:30Julian.
01:05:33Let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:38You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:47Please, Julian.
01:05:56Okay.
01:05:58I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No take-backs.
01:06:03No take-backs.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:05Ever.
01:06:05I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:08But can you help me out?
01:06:12Um, my hands are getting wet.
01:06:15So impatient.
01:06:16So impatient.
01:06:19It's like you said, if I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:31Then be gentle.
01:06:33Then be gentle.
01:06:40Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:46Uh, no.
01:06:47Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember that.
01:06:51You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, kind of, you kind of remember that for the rest of
01:06:56your life, you know that-
01:06:56Details!
01:06:58Those are just tiny details.
01:07:02Look like big details to me.
01:07:06Julian.
01:07:09Can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:12Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:14Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:15I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:17I misjudged everything.
01:07:19Please, just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:23And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:26I'll do anything.
01:07:27I'm sorry, I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:42Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:45And yet you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:49He asked you out 37 times.
01:07:51So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm?
01:07:57Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:04Listen carefully, we are all together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:08If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:14Come on.
01:08:15We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:18Let's not be late.
01:08:19Wedding outfits.
01:08:22Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:40He's with Nora.
01:08:45Nora.
01:08:47Nora Lawson, CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:51You know Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:08:56The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:09:00You don't get another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family a chance.
01:09:04And we blew it.
01:09:07God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:09Please.
01:09:12Ms. Hopper, Finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Hopper Enterprise's cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:18If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:24Great.
01:09:25Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:29That was gonna lend to us now?
01:09:31How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:33This is my fault, okay?
01:09:35I was blind.
01:09:36Are you proud now?
01:09:38I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:42I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:47And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:52Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined Harpers Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad, you're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:04So maybe you should go talk to him.
01:10:07And see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:10Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:12Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:14If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:17Lark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:21Yes.
01:10:22They honored our engagement.
01:10:25And that was a mercy. That was a blessing.
01:10:28But you threw it away.
01:10:32Still.
01:10:34For your sake and for your future.
01:10:37And for our future.
01:10:39We'll fight.
01:10:46Serena.
01:10:48When you see Julian's grandfather, your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:55If he forgives you, only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:04For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22Welcome.
01:11:23You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing. They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:33So they're really engaged?
01:11:36Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:40What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:42Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born.
01:11:46And everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married.
01:11:50Oh, oh, I see.
01:11:52You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:56Then, please leave.
01:11:58Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:05If there's an engagement party, that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:13And that means we're done.
01:12:17There's no more chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:24All right, everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:30Woo!
01:12:43Julian!
01:12:45Are you okay?
01:12:46Hey.
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54Oh, it's nothing.
01:12:55Come on, dinner's almost ready.
01:13:09Dad!
01:13:11The Harpers!
01:13:13My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:17For a young one,
01:13:20his six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:22it was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown to Harper more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:42You can't drink this away.
01:13:45Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:47If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me the fuck alone.
01:13:53Okay?
01:13:54Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:57I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:59No, you...
01:14:02All right, I've got to take this.
01:14:04Don't move.
01:14:05I'll be right back, and then I am taking you home.
01:14:09Hello.
01:14:17Nora.
01:14:20Okay, Nora.
01:14:21Be honest.
01:14:23You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged,
01:14:27and you're getting married next week?
01:14:29Let's see.
01:14:30You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:34You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:35I've liked Julian for 20 years,
01:14:38and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:40You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:43From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:46They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:50I have to move fast.
01:14:51If they start begging,
01:14:55what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:57But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:15:00There's no real love.
01:15:01Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:05You don't get it.
01:15:07Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:10and it wasn't just because he's grandfather watery.
01:15:13Then why?
01:15:16Because Serena...
01:15:19is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:27No way!
01:15:28I'm serious.
01:15:30The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:33That exact time.
01:15:35I mean, with his personality,
01:15:38even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:40he would have stayed there for three days max,
01:15:42and then vanished.
01:15:43He would not stay there and take six months of humiliation
01:15:47if he didn't want it.
01:15:49That's Julian Clark.
01:15:51So that's why?
01:15:53Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:55I have to get married fast.
01:15:58I cannot give her a single chance.
01:16:00So that's what it was.
01:16:02Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:04because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me!
01:16:07That means I still have a chance.
01:16:10I still have a chance!
01:16:12This is my last shot.
01:16:13I am not wasting it.
01:16:21Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow.
01:16:46They look perfect together.
01:16:48They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:50The whole fantasy.
01:16:51Oh my god, brilliant!
01:16:54And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:09Wait!
01:17:15Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:19Who is that?
01:17:20Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:22CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:23You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:27and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:29Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:41Julian, I know you like me.
01:17:43You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:17:46humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please.
01:17:57Give me another chance.
01:18:02Our engagement is over.
01:18:04In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:07Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:09Have some dignity.
01:18:10In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:11No, please.
01:18:13No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just...
01:18:15I know.
01:18:21You hate me.
01:18:22Because I rejected you 37 times.
01:18:25But I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times.
01:18:30370 times.
01:18:31Whatever it did.
01:18:33Enough.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:36Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:38I know you like me.
01:18:40So...
01:18:40So why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:47Simple question.
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:53I...
01:18:53Exactly.
01:18:54You don't.
01:18:55You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:57You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:19:00See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:04You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:09No.
01:19:10That...
01:19:11That's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:15Please, listen.
01:19:16Enough.
01:19:16Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise, do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:22Let me ask you this.
01:19:24If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:26if your value kept climbing,
01:19:28would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34I...
01:19:34I...
01:19:34No, I...
01:19:35No, you wouldn't.
01:19:35You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:36You'd be celebrating.
01:19:38You'd say that you earned the business queen a crown.
01:19:41You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:43You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:46Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:48No.
01:19:50No, Julian.
01:19:52That's not me.
01:19:53Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:56You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:58But on my wedding day, you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:20:01Why?
01:20:02Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:04Your donor.
01:20:05Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:07But the moment I stop being useful,
01:20:09you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:12No.
01:20:14No, Julian.
01:20:16That is not true.
01:20:17The night that you saved me from Damien, I...
01:20:23I felt something for you.
01:20:24I did.
01:20:25Stop.
01:20:26Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:28You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:30You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:32You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:35You know, I'll admit, when I met you, you were exactly my type.
01:20:41But once I got to know you, once I realized what you really are,
01:20:45all I felt was disgust.
01:20:48But Nora...
01:20:51She has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:56When I was sick, she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:21:01When I was at my lowest, she pulled me back up.
01:21:04Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement,
01:21:08she still supported me.
01:21:10She still took hits from me.
01:21:15So, let me ask you.
01:21:18Why would I give up all of that for you?
01:21:22What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:27I...
01:21:28I...
01:21:29I...
01:21:29I...
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:32Don't, don't, don't.
01:21:33I...
01:21:34I'm begging you, just please let me explain!
01:21:37Please!
01:21:38Please, let me...
01:21:38Please stop, let me go!
01:21:40Julian, please don't do it!
01:21:42Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:44I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:46Turns out, she just realized, without Julian, she can't stay on top.
01:21:50She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:52Totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:21:54Gregasting.
01:21:55Yeah.
01:22:13He won!
01:22:19And to verse 5 of Emma's During buses
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:43I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:45Harper Enterprise, effective today, has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:49So, we're all being terminated.
01:22:51What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:56I've given this company 15 years. You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years, wow. Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:13I've seen how you all work.
01:23:14I'm sure.
01:23:17Bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a file.
01:23:26So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms.
01:23:30And once you sign them, hand over your badges, or you're going to rob them.
01:23:35This, this is it.
01:23:52Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:58Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:59He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:07Julian.
01:24:10If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian, why don't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:27I spent my whole life climbing upwards and now I'm stuck at the bottom, hunted by cops.
01:24:31I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian, what's yours?
01:24:35Julian, let's go!
01:24:39Let me go! Bucky, let me go!
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:43You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:46Take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best lawyer money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:49Fucking coward!
01:24:50You're a fucking coward!
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's money!
01:24:53No, no, fight me!
01:24:54101!
01:24:55101, let the guards go!
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts to you!
01:25:02Hey, Julian.
01:25:04What was that?
01:25:06Just taking out the trash.
01:25:09Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong!
01:25:21Julian, I was wrong!
01:25:23Julian, I was wrong!
