00:00:01Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack.
00:00:06In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in argumentation.
00:00:11Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:14Help me up here, I'm drowning.
00:00:15Help me up here, I'm drowning.
00:00:16Help me up here, I'm drowning.
00:00:18I'm drowning.
00:00:21No, you have to.
00:00:22I need you to buy the stock, or I can only buy the dollar.
00:00:24You can't do this now.
00:00:26This isn't some random dip.
00:00:27Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:30We can't hold the line.
00:00:31We're about to become the laughing stock of Wall Street.
00:00:33No, no, we're not finished.
00:00:36We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:41The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:46Julian, we need you. Again.
00:00:49Shit.
00:00:50We need your help. The various...
00:00:53Give me a sec.
00:00:58Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing?
00:01:01Good, good, yeah.
00:01:03I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:10Julian, you saved my ass last time. I owe you.
00:01:13I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:17Great.
00:01:22The stock price is recovering.
00:01:24How is that possible?
00:01:25Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:28Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:31Julian, Damien's assistant called.
00:01:34Called in all hands.
00:01:35All department leads.
00:01:36Conference room in 10 minutes.
00:01:38Chairman's orders.
00:01:39Why will Damien call in the meeting?
00:01:41He despises you.
00:01:43Watch your back.
00:01:46What is that?
00:01:46Big sea of threat.
00:01:48And.
00:01:48or next ileri of them in the meeting.
00:02:09Each ilerior growth.
00:02:10If anything You are creating me?
00:02:10Ever?
00:02:10While you are creating a new amazing change mission?
00:02:10This terminar.
00:02:11If anything is Nathan'm learning's efforts to build core.
00:02:11I'm integrating a new researchiperick.
00:02:12Big day to do so.
00:02:14He successfully neutralized the short attack against Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:19Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:27Since when does Damien know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:30He must have stole this win from someone else.
00:02:32Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:35Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:37Anthony pushed back and Damien used his pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:45Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:49Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire.
00:02:52The least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:53Damien.
00:02:56Of course.
00:02:58Questions?
00:03:00I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:09Julian, our company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:14Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:18This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:22Wait, I'm sorry everyone.
00:03:25I forgot.
00:03:27You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:29My strategies, you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:37Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, we'll start with a question.
00:03:42Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:44And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:46And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:48Doesn't matter.
00:03:49What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:51You can't even name your enemy?
00:03:53Alright, fine.
00:03:54Next question.
00:03:55Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:03:57And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:01Well, uh, well, um, well, I, uh, well, well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:09Alright.
00:04:10So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:13the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight,
00:04:15or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:21Let's be real.
00:04:23You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees for real.
00:04:37You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:42You know what, Clark?
00:04:44You're fucking fired!
00:04:45Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:57You hear that, Dad?
00:04:59I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:03Understood.
00:05:05Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:06I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company now.
00:05:13You took our family's market cap and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:19You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:21Now, uh, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:25Harper's, uh, old friends, good staff, you know?
00:05:29Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:32What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:34Feelings could grow, but our families go way better.
00:05:38Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:40My life, my choice.
00:05:42Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that...
00:05:45Enough!
00:05:46Oh, that's it.
00:05:47You're going to do this.
00:05:48I've already arranged everything.
00:05:50You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:53Go work with Serena.
00:05:55And date her properly, hmm?
00:05:59You refuse.
00:06:02Okay.
00:06:03Nurse, Dr. Ann, check it out.
00:06:05My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:06What's the point?
00:06:07Okay.
00:06:07Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:09Okay, all right.
00:06:10I'll go.
00:06:12I know when I pass, okay?
00:06:15For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:18We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:21The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:23We do not abandon our own youths, that brilliant head of youths, and help them, please, for me.
00:06:33Fine.
00:06:35I'll do it.
00:06:37I hear you.
00:06:45For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:50I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:54I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:06:57And for what?
00:06:58So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:03It's time to come home.
00:07:10You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:13So, pathetic.
00:07:15I said you're fired.
00:07:16Get your shit and get the fuck out of my door.
00:07:18I heard you.
00:07:20I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay, and then I'm gone.
00:07:23I said no!
00:07:24Or I'm going to cross security, and you're going to drag your ass out.
00:07:27Suit yourself.
00:07:29Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:34Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:36You will leave.
00:07:37Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:41Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:43I will not repeat it.
00:07:45And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:47You know what, Serena?
00:07:48Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:56And you, don't push your luck, Clark.
00:07:58The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place is because of your
00:08:01dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:03And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:07You're fucking nothing.
00:08:08You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:12I mean, even your old Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:14So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking...
00:08:26You're broke, my petite.
00:08:28You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:30A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:34We lost your balance.
00:08:36Maybe work on your course rate.
00:08:37Julian, that is enough.
00:08:39Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:41Assault?
00:08:42Destruction of property?
00:08:43As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:47Effective immediately.
00:08:48Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:51Serena, you broke my watch.
00:08:52The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:54He has to pay for it.
00:08:55Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:56Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:03Fine.
00:09:05I'll pay.
00:09:06Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:08What?
00:09:08One hundred thousand dollars.
00:09:09It's a million.
00:09:11A million for that.
00:09:12It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:13It's priceless.
00:09:15A million dollars being generous.
00:09:16You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:18A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:20He does have a point card.
00:09:22You break it, you buy it.
00:09:24That's the rule.
00:09:25Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:32Well, you gonna wire me the money?
00:09:35Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:37And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:44So what if you're Serena's fiance?
00:09:47Look at her now.
00:09:48She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:51A million dollars.
00:09:53That's the final offer.
00:09:55What do you mean?
00:10:00Hi, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:14I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:21You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:25What's next?
00:10:25A private army?
00:10:27All right, Julian.
00:10:27The charade ends now.
00:10:29Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:31But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:34We are done.
00:10:36You sure?
00:10:37Whoa, whoa.
00:10:38You heard that, Julian?
00:10:39Your engagement's over.
00:10:40Now get out before I throw you-
00:10:42Get your hands off me!
00:10:47You put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:49You know what?
00:10:50I'm going to wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:56Enough!
00:11:01Mr. Ruth.
00:11:04That's David Brooks, president of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:07What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:09Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:11It can't be!
00:11:12That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal worth.
00:11:17Mr. Clark.
00:11:18The one million.
00:11:20As requested.
00:11:43Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash to Julian?
00:11:48Wait, the money is real?
00:11:52Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:53I mean, wait, who are you?
00:11:57Much appreciated.
00:11:58You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:07Mr. Brooks, sir, we are so honored by your visit.
00:12:11My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:13I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:18Mr. Clark.
00:12:20Is there anything else you require?
00:12:22My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:23No, thank you.
00:12:24You can go now.
00:12:25Of course.
00:12:33A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:38Unprofessional.
00:12:39I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:42We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:45Yes, sir.
00:12:46Mr. Brooks, I...
00:12:50Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:52Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:54The chairman will have his head.
00:12:56This is all your fault, all right?
00:12:58You gotta fix this.
00:12:59You call him back here and get that loan reinstated,
00:13:01or I swear I'm gonna...
00:13:02You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:05As for us...
00:13:09One million.
00:13:10In full.
00:13:11Which makes this watch...
00:13:16It's mine.
00:13:18You arrogant.
00:13:19Son of a bitch!
00:13:24I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:26I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together,
00:13:28you fucking loser.
00:13:33But it's all mine now.
00:13:35Yeah, sure.
00:13:36The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:37But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:40That useless piece of junk?
00:13:41How much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:42Oh.
00:13:43I don't know.
00:13:44Maybe about...
00:13:46A hundred million?
00:13:47A hundred million dollars!
00:13:51For a laptop?
00:13:53Have you lost your mind?
00:13:56A hundred million.
00:13:57For a laptop.
00:13:59Julian.
00:14:00The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:03Which your committee is extortion.
00:14:05That's illegal.
00:14:06So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:09By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:12Huh?
00:14:13Ask a kisser.
00:14:14Enough!
00:14:16Julian.
00:14:17You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:19What?
00:14:19A stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:23A hundred million dollars?
00:14:25I...
00:14:26Dream on.
00:14:27Sure.
00:14:27A standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:30But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:31What is it?
00:14:31Made of gold?
00:14:32Even then, it's still going to cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:36You know what?
00:14:37You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:46Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:48That's Billy Sullivan.
00:14:49SVP for stellar.
00:14:51Here?
00:14:51You think it's about the $300 million part in each year?
00:14:54$300 million?
00:14:55That's huge for us, but pocket change for stellar.
00:14:57Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:00Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:02Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:04I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO.
00:15:06Do we owe the...
00:15:07Mr. Clark, the security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:12And the signal originated here.
00:15:14We were concerned for your safety and care immediately.
00:15:16Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian, too?
00:15:18Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:21Unbelievable.
00:15:22Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:24Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:25It just took a fall.
00:15:28God, this damage is significant.
00:15:31With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be $30 million.
00:15:39$30 million?
00:15:40No, no, no, no.
00:15:41To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:43That's impossible!
00:15:44There's no way!
00:15:45Are you questioning me?
00:15:46No, I just...
00:15:47Well, open your eyes.
00:15:48This is a one-off laptop with stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:52You better pray that those data partitions are intact, or that compensation will ruin you.
00:15:58I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:01It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:05I mean, with our declarations, this is at least $70 million.
00:16:11That's $70 million?
00:16:12Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:18All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:21Here.
00:16:23Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:27See for yourself.
00:16:36Who carries around a $100 billion laptop?
00:16:43Who exactly are you?
00:16:45You don't get to know.
00:16:47In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:49There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that cost $100 million.
00:16:53You know what?
00:16:53This is a fucking scam.
00:16:55These two, they're working together.
00:16:56I'm telling you, it's a con.
00:16:57Are you serious?
00:16:59I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:00I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:02I don't fly across the city a scam at nobody like you.
00:17:04Listen, I'm so...
00:17:06Ms. Harper, this is the employee you hire?
00:17:10He's a fool.
00:17:11And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:14Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:16Consider it terminated.
00:17:18What?
00:17:19Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:21Damien is just...
00:17:23He's stressy.
00:17:24He didn't mean...
00:17:25Save it.
00:17:26You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:29You, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:32My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:36I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:40Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:43He never lost.
00:17:44Damien can't fight this.
00:17:46Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:50He's done for.
00:17:53So, name is hell.
00:17:54Please.
00:17:59Please.
00:18:00Please.
00:18:02Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:07Will that suffice?
00:18:09I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:11You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:15Full payment.
00:18:17In my account.
00:18:18Within three days.
00:18:20In that case, we're done here.
00:18:22Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else.
00:18:25I'll do it.
00:18:26Mr. Sullivan, are our partners...
00:18:29Get your house in order first.
00:18:31Stellar has standards.
00:18:33We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:35That'll be all.
00:18:36Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:37Oh, that's funny.
00:18:39Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:40A hundred million on the line and you swoop in to cover for him.
00:18:44You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:49Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business.
00:18:54We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:56He's right.
00:18:58Julianna, I give you my word.
00:19:00The full amount will be paid within three days.
00:19:02But under one condition.
00:19:03Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:06And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:09Now.
00:19:10You hear that, Julian?
00:19:12You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:13Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:13But it's not about what you made.
00:19:15It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:16And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:19So get the fuck out!
00:19:21Get the fuck out?
00:19:24One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:29Remind me, which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:32Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:34He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:40Stop, stop!
00:19:45This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:49Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:52Funny.
00:19:53Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:55Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:00You.
00:20:10Get the fuck out!
00:20:12Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:15This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:18I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:21Security, remove him.
00:20:25Julian, please, don't make us get physical.
00:20:28I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:30You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:33Jared Harper brought you in!
00:20:35Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:37Who do you think you are?
00:20:39You think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:41Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:44The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:49Do it.
00:20:52Looks like I won't need that phone call.
00:20:54Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:56Luke, get him the fuck out of here.
00:20:57Hey!
00:21:02What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:06Stand down!
00:21:07All of you!
00:21:08You, out of here.
00:21:10Now!
00:21:10Dad, Grandpa, what are you doing here?
00:21:18Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's gone on today.
00:21:23I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:28Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:31Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:35Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:39Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:42How could you possibly...
00:21:44Shut up!
00:21:53How dare you disrespect Julian?
00:21:55Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has.
00:21:57You can't just hit people.
00:21:59I wish we hit him more.
00:22:00Serena, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:05We didn't tell you everything because of your ego, and I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:09You were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set, but who knew?
00:22:15Serena, you've been blind.
00:22:17Julian is...
00:22:18Thomas, you can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:20No real feelings, no need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:24Julian, please understand.
00:22:26Man, all of this is on us.
00:22:28Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harper Fent.
00:22:33Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:38Apologize to Julian, now!
00:22:40No!
00:22:41I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:44To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:49But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:54I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:22:59Serena, enough!
00:23:00Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:02Let me apologize.
00:23:03Say that.
00:23:05Serena can't manage an apology herself, and I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:12Issue my order.
00:23:14Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:16Seize every protective measure effective immediately.
00:23:20Julian, please, don't!
00:23:21Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:24Look!
00:23:26Oh!
00:23:27What?
00:23:30What?
00:23:32Oh, I guess you would have just pulled the orders.
00:23:34What do you mean?
00:23:35Hostile takeover.
00:23:37All of our visitors pulled out.
00:23:38How can that be?
00:23:43Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in a minute.
00:23:46Wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:49What? My entire division just stopped.
00:23:51We can't operate like this.
00:23:53A stunning reversal.
00:23:54Harper Enterprises' many allies withdraw their investments in an instant,
00:23:58leaving the group facing massive losses.
00:24:01Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:05Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:07Why did Harper Enterprises suddenly lose power?
00:24:10What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:13How is that possible?
00:24:16Are you attacking the company?
00:24:17No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you.
00:24:24Harper Enterprises will not yield to any market attacks.
00:24:27Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks.
00:24:30It's Harper. This isn't a race.
00:24:31Our major partners are terminating their contracts.
00:24:34And our own liquidity can't cover the gas.
00:24:37If it's come to use, the stock will crash straight through the floor.
00:24:41What did you say?
00:24:43Damn it.
00:24:44How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:47Why him? I won't accept this. I won't.
00:24:50Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:56Apologize to Julian.
00:24:57No!
00:25:01Serena, apologize.
00:25:05Serena.
00:25:15Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:18Harper Enterprises is worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:25:21You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:23Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:28to you.
00:25:32It's not your fucking fault.
00:25:33You apologize to Julian right now and get on your name.
00:25:37Dad!
00:25:39Damien! Damien!
00:25:41Dad, stop!
00:25:42Damien has only ever stood up for me.
00:25:44He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you treat him like this.
00:25:47Stay out of the way.
00:25:48No!
00:25:50Are you really going to go to war with Julian over this snake?
00:25:54Do you even have any idea who he really is?
00:25:57Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this.
00:26:00I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me.
00:26:07Serena, that is enough.
00:26:08So wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:11What about this guy?
00:26:12What about him?
00:26:13He hides behind your name to steal other people's work.
00:26:16He throws tea on me in this very room.
00:26:18He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a $100,000 watch.
00:26:21Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:23Oh, I...
00:26:25But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:28Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:30You're just biased.
00:26:33You know, I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:36I have asked you out 37 times.
00:26:39Yeah, because I thought we should at least get to know each other.
00:26:41Every time I have asked you out, you said, I'm too busy with work.
00:26:45But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:47The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:26:51Listen to him sing your praises, right?
00:26:54Who's that?
00:26:56Oh, let me guess.
00:26:57Julian's still asking him off?
00:27:02Just ignore him.
00:27:03Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:06Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:10I just...
00:27:11I can't stand him.
00:27:12A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:17So what if I did?
00:27:19Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice.
00:27:22We're engaged.
00:27:23Not married.
00:27:24I can see whoever I want.
00:27:26Serena, shut up.
00:27:29No, I am not done.
00:27:31Damien has worked himself to the bone.
00:27:34He is driven and disciplined and when Harper first went public, he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:40If you had even half his talent, Julian, maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:46But you don't.
00:27:50Damien was a key reason you made it.
00:27:51That's your story, right?
00:27:53What is so funny?
00:27:54I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:27:58Do you know why for the past six months all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:03Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:06Why every time that you wanted a loan, the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:10Because Damien is brilliant.
00:28:12Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way.
00:28:15Damien?
00:28:16Brilliant?
00:28:17That was Julian.
00:28:19Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together.
00:28:24Serena.
00:28:25No, that is impossible.
00:28:28I don't believe it.
00:28:38Hey.
00:28:39Eyes up, Serena.
00:28:40In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections and cleared a path for you.
00:28:45Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange.
00:28:47And you know, I made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:50That's Iron Gate, North Bridge, and even Silver Line.
00:28:53Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:55They've all been begging us behind the scenes?
00:28:57No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:00Julian's the one with this kind of network.
00:29:02Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this.
00:29:05That's a death wish.
00:29:09No, no, no.
00:29:10It's not true, huh?
00:29:11Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me and my hard work and my connections.
00:29:16Shit, you arrogant fool.
00:29:19Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:28Alright, that's enough.
00:29:31I finally got the all clear from my grandfather.
00:29:33I can go home.
00:29:34So as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:37Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:40But the engagement...
00:29:42Let him go.
00:29:43I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:49Without my connections and my network,
00:29:52Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:54And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:29:58Wait, wait, wait.
00:29:59You're just going to go on.
00:30:01Prepare yourselves.
00:30:03Julian.
00:30:03Julian.
00:30:04Stop sitting.
00:30:05Julian.
00:30:08Serena.
00:30:09You silly, foolish...
00:30:12Foolish girl.
00:30:13Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:16With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:19Serena's right.
00:30:20Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper,
00:30:22I'm going to stand by Serena's side,
00:30:23and I'm going to give her everything that I've got.
00:30:26Crap.
00:30:27I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all.
00:30:30Dad, that is enough.
00:30:32Dad?
00:30:34Grandpa?
00:30:35I know you have your issues with Damien,
00:30:37but I believe he will prove himself to you,
00:30:40and so will I.
00:30:43I will show everyone here
00:30:44that what Harper achieved over the past six months
00:30:46was my work.
00:30:48It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:51This meeting is over.
00:30:53Serena, wait up!
00:30:56You!
00:30:56God, tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:04Serena, Serena!
00:31:06Don't even worry about that.
00:31:07I know our enterprise took a huge hit today,
00:31:09but as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake project,
00:31:12change the game,
00:31:13and everyone will still think that we're in control.
00:31:15Easy.
00:31:17The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:20If we can win that contract,
00:31:22we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:25Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before,
00:31:29and I'm going to put this one in your hands, too.
00:31:32It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:33No, no, absolutely.
00:31:34You're going to count on me.
00:31:35Amber Group's deputy VP of projects?
00:31:38I mean, he trusts me clearly.
00:31:40He else has been his honest.
00:31:49Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:51Same as always.
00:31:52Once the Harper team arrives,
00:31:53we hand it straight to them.
00:31:55Miss Lawson, we just got an update.
00:31:57Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise.
00:31:59The engagement is off.
00:32:01Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:05Are you sure?
00:32:07Absolutely.
00:32:08Word is she listened to her assistant Damien,
00:32:10who really stirred the pot,
00:32:11and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:14Serena really thinks she got where she is because of Damien?
00:32:17That pretty little lap dog?
00:32:19Then do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:23Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:28Not a chance.
00:32:29Open it to public video.
00:32:31Yes, ma'am.
00:32:39Now that is an amazing shot.
00:32:41Mr. Brooks.
00:32:41Damien, Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:32:46How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:02Damien, what does this mean, huh?
00:33:04Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:09That's one million in clean crypto, untraceable.
00:33:14Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:18We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:22Oh my, Damien, you're too kind.
00:33:25Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:33Sit tight.
00:33:35Contract's yours.
00:33:38Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:44Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:34:13Well, wow.
00:34:15Friends, Jillian.
00:34:18All right, Serena kicked you out.
00:34:20Six months of hard work down the drain.
00:34:24What does that feel?
00:34:26Oh, I see.
00:34:27So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit.
00:34:31Is that right?
00:34:32Of course.
00:34:33Not.
00:34:36I'm here to steal you.
00:34:39You see, since your engagement is off,
00:34:43I was thinking,
00:34:45how about you consider me, huh?
00:34:50Guys like us, we don't get to escape alliances.
00:34:54Our families will bear us off either way, so
00:34:58why pick a stranger
00:35:00when there's someone who
00:35:02actually knows you?
00:35:04You see?
00:35:06Childhood friends,
00:35:07same circles,
00:35:1015 years of school.
00:35:13We match.
00:35:14You know?
00:35:15We fit.
00:35:18Hang on.
00:35:19Nora, you're...
00:35:20Are you saying this because you're drunk,
00:35:22or do you...
00:35:30I'm not drunk, okay?
00:35:32You don't have to answer me tonight.
00:35:34Just think about it.
00:35:37Hmm?
00:36:07I told you, I'm not drunk.
00:36:10Nora, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:12Oh, shit.
00:36:14I'm drunk.
00:36:16Nora, your swimsuit come off.
00:36:18Oh, shit.
00:36:19I'm drunk.
00:36:35Miss Lawson,
00:36:37Amber Group's distinguished CEO,
00:36:39allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:43Oh, I am so sorry.
00:36:44Bad, bad timing.
00:36:45Truly terrible timing.
00:36:49Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:36:55Don't move.
00:36:56If that jacket slips for you in a second,
00:36:59we're finished.
00:37:00Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:02Amber Group's CEO
00:37:03get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:05Rumor to come
00:37:06boost tomorrow's
00:37:07company's visibility,
00:37:08but I'm not letting
00:37:09the pictures of my breast go through.
00:37:11Okay.
00:37:13Okay.
00:37:16But if you stay through to me,
00:37:19I guess the rest of the night...
00:37:23I think my heart's going to sleep on its chest.
00:37:25I think my heart's going to sleep on its chest.
00:37:51Walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:37:55Okay.
00:38:07Speak of the devil of all the times.
00:38:15You know, this is a private party
00:38:17for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:18You know what I lost?
00:38:20Not exactly the kind of place
00:38:21where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:23Oh, wait.
00:38:26Well, well.
00:38:28I mean, your engagement ends
00:38:30and you move on in record time.
00:38:32Feelings for Serena weren't that deep
00:38:34after all.
00:38:36Can I help you with something?
00:38:38Seriously?
00:38:39This woman's even prettier than Serena.
00:38:41How does a loser like Julian
00:38:42always get women?
00:38:43I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:46Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here,
00:38:48she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:52Pouring herself out like this?
00:38:55It's me, Paul Digger.
00:38:56Is that so?
00:38:58Now I hear your company's looking to bid
00:39:00on Amber Group's Crescent Lake project.
00:39:06What, you're bidding too?
00:39:07Yeah, I know you got connection
00:39:08and that's great, you know,
00:39:09but you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:12Me, I got real talent, all right?
00:39:13And I'm going to win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:16You, you're just going to fucking lose
00:39:17like you lose everything else.
00:39:20Good luck.
00:39:32See that?
00:39:34That is a shameless whore.
00:39:36That woman seems familiar.
00:39:39Listen, man, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:42All right, come on.
00:39:43Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:45Let's go socialize
00:39:45and maybe we'll run into the host of the party
00:39:47lost on herself.
00:39:50And if we do,
00:39:51I'll make sure we're going to go to Brescia.
00:40:01I'm so sure he's going to be safe.
00:40:04Can I see you?
00:40:10So that pretty boy Damien
00:40:11actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:15Tonight we're going to see who's really on top.
00:40:18Okay.
00:40:19Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:21What?
00:40:23You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:25Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:27But if you like glassy,
00:40:30I can do glassy.
00:40:31Oh, can you?
00:40:32You can do glassy?
00:40:33Yeah.
00:40:34Miss Lawson,
00:40:35it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:42I'll let you get to it.
00:40:47Sally?
00:41:04Julie.
00:41:07I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:09You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:13You know what?
00:41:15Mason Brooks,
00:41:16Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects,
00:41:18already agreed to award the contract
00:41:20to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:23You can't win.
00:41:27I hear the Crescent Lake Project
00:41:29is basically yours.
00:41:30Congratulations.
00:41:32Serena,
00:41:32you are the business queen of Wall Street,
00:41:34and with Damien backing you up,
00:41:36it's unstoppable.
00:41:37When the two of you take off,
00:41:38don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:40Of course.
00:41:41You know,
00:41:41we're going to take care of you guys.
00:41:42Thank you so much.
00:41:50See that, Julian?
00:41:52Everybody already knows
00:41:53that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:55I suggest you walk out of here
00:41:57before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:41:58It's funny.
00:42:00You see,
00:42:00my Clark Group has deeper capital,
00:42:02better tech,
00:42:03and a stronger global record
00:42:05than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:06so I'm just curious.
00:42:08Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:10He recognizes Damien's talent,
00:42:12of course.
00:42:17I need to take this.
00:42:25Don't mind, Julian.
00:42:28What century are you living in?
00:42:30Hmm?
00:42:31You really think that capital and technology
00:42:33wins contracts anymore?
00:42:34Then what does?
00:42:36Aren't you really that fucking stupid?
00:42:38Of course this.
00:42:41I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:44What do you have
00:42:45that's going to be that?
00:42:48You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:50That's impossible.
00:42:51He wouldn't dare.
00:42:52That's impossible.
00:42:53He wouldn't dare.
00:42:54Yeah, you want to understand
00:42:55the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:42:57But hey,
00:42:58you're a very lovely,
00:43:00beautiful escort.
00:43:01Why don't you do us all a favor,
00:43:02get up on that stage
00:43:03and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:05Hey.
00:43:06Hey,
00:43:06I'm going to tell you,
00:43:07you want to know why
00:43:08I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:12Because every time,
00:43:13I give Mason Brooks
00:43:13a nice little fortune.
00:43:17Capital technology.
00:43:20It's useless fucking trash.
00:43:24Mason Brooks,
00:43:25you've got a lot in there.
00:43:27He's finished.
00:43:28Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:30Who the fuck is this?
00:43:32Who are you?
00:43:33What do you think?
00:43:34You're the Amber Group CEO
00:43:34or something?
00:43:37Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:39It's adorable, no?
00:43:40Amber Group's
00:43:41anti-corruption code did.
00:43:43Anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:45No.
00:43:58What are you going to report,
00:43:59Mr. Brooks?
00:44:00Hmm?
00:44:03You hit me.
00:44:05You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:08I'm going to have Mason Brooks
00:44:09crush you with one phone call.
00:44:13There he is.
00:44:14Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:15You're finished.
00:44:18Mr. Brooks.
00:44:19What do you mean my friend?
00:44:20There's a woman here.
00:44:22I said she's going to report to you.
00:44:23Come on, please.
00:44:23Teach her a lesson.
00:44:24Oh, report me?
00:44:26Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:27This woman right here.
00:44:32Miss Lawson?
00:44:33She's even quoted
00:44:34the anti-corruption code
00:44:35like she's somebody.
00:44:36Like, how fucking ridiculous.
00:44:37What?
00:44:38What?
00:44:39What?
00:44:40This...
00:44:42This can't be...
00:44:45Go ahead.
00:44:46Laugh.
00:44:47Laugh some more.
00:44:48Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:50You'll say anything out loud.
00:44:51Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:52She's just some gold-dicking whore.
00:44:54I mean, even if she rats you out,
00:44:56who's going to believe this?
00:44:57Oh!
00:44:58Why are you hitting me?
00:44:59Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:01When did I ever take your money?
00:45:03I never took one cent.
00:45:05Say it again,
00:45:06and I'll bury you.
00:45:07Idiots!
00:45:08Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:11Miss Lawson,
00:45:12this...
00:45:12This Damien,
00:45:13he's a lunatic.
00:45:14He's making things up.
00:45:16Don't listen to him.
00:45:17I swear,
00:45:18I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:20Not once!
00:45:23Miss Lawson?
00:45:26No, no, wait.
00:45:27You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:29Amber's group CEO?
00:45:30How is that possible?
00:45:31How is that fucking...
00:45:32Mr. Brooks?
00:45:33Hello.
00:45:34I am Serena Harper.
00:45:36Thank you so much
00:45:37for awarding the Crescent Lake Project
00:45:38to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:39We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:43Stop!
00:45:44Shut the fuck up!
00:45:46When did I ever give you anything?
00:45:50Miss Lawson?
00:45:51These Harper Enterprise people,
00:45:53they're all out of their minds.
00:45:55They lie like the wind.
00:45:57I can't believe a word they say.
00:45:59Miss Lawson?
00:46:01Miss Lawson?
00:46:03She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:08The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:10Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:12You can leave now.
00:46:16Miss Lawson,
00:46:17I am so sorry.
00:46:19Damien
00:46:20didn't know who you were,
00:46:21so he thought that you and Julian
00:46:23were being
00:46:24inappropriate.
00:46:25Um, but I'll make him apologize.
00:46:27Right now.
00:46:28He is blunt.
00:46:30Yes.
00:46:31But his ability
00:46:32is exceptional.
00:46:34Please,
00:46:35give Harper Enterprise
00:46:37the contract,
00:46:37and I promise
00:46:39we will deliver results
00:46:40that satisfy you.
00:46:41Exceptional ability?
00:46:43Are you sure about that?
00:46:45Of course.
00:46:46If not,
00:46:47why would Mason Brooks
00:46:48have handed him
00:46:48so many contracts before?
00:46:51You're about to find out.
00:46:58Damien?
00:47:00What does she mean?
00:47:02Oh, shit.
00:47:03I can't let her find out.
00:47:04I secured every project.
00:47:06Right.
00:47:07She's upset because
00:47:08I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:09So she wants revenge.
00:47:11So she's going to embarrass
00:47:12Harper Enterprise
00:47:13in front of everyone.
00:47:13So what we need to do
00:47:14is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:15Let's go.
00:47:16Go?
00:47:17If we don't win Crescent Lake,
00:47:19Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:21Even if Miss Lawson
00:47:23is trying to punish us,
00:47:24we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:25Serena, please!
00:47:26Okay?
00:47:26I'm sorry.
00:47:28Here we go now.
00:47:29Alright?
00:47:30I'll get you bigger projects,
00:47:31the biggest ones,
00:47:31but we need to go now.
00:47:32Come on.
00:47:33What is wrong with you today?
00:47:35Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:37I...
00:47:50You want to understand
00:47:51the rules on top there, sweet boy?
00:47:54Technology capital.
00:47:56Useless fucking trash.
00:47:58What?
00:47:59Shit!
00:47:59She actually recorded it?
00:48:01I'm an escort.
00:48:02So why don't you do us all
00:48:03a nice little favor,
00:48:04get up on that stage,
00:48:05give us a nice little poll show.
00:48:09Who is that?
00:48:11He bribed Mason Brooks
00:48:13for contracts?
00:48:14That's Damien Blackwell,
00:48:15Harper Enterprise's
00:48:16executive assistant.
00:48:17How do you not know him?
00:48:18All of the best Amber projects
00:48:20being sent to Harper Enterprise
00:48:21over the past six months,
00:48:23and now we know
00:48:24they were bought.
00:48:27That's not true.
00:48:28All of that's a lie.
00:48:29Just don't...
00:48:30Just don't...
00:48:30Don't believe it.
00:48:31I...
00:48:31Just turn it up.
00:48:32Turn it up right now!
00:48:33Stop him!
00:48:35Let go of me!
00:48:37Damien, you did this
00:48:38behind my back.
00:48:40This is your talent?
00:48:41Your ability?
00:48:43Sir, I mean,
00:48:43please just see us.
00:48:45Mr. Brooks' assistant.
00:48:46What a fucking ridiculous
00:48:47thing to say.
00:48:48I mean,
00:48:48who are you to say anything?
00:48:50What do you think,
00:48:50you're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:52Amber Group.
00:48:54Turn it off, please.
00:48:56Okay?
00:48:56Okay, Ms. Lawson,
00:48:57please just turn it off.
00:48:58Just...
00:48:58Please stop it!
00:48:59Please!
00:49:00Please!
00:49:01Bribery is one thing,
00:49:03but mistaking Ms. Lawson
00:49:04for an escort?
00:49:06A whore?
00:49:07He's fucking blind.
00:49:09The best part?
00:49:10He confessed right in front of her
00:49:12that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:14Genius!
00:49:15And Serena trusted him
00:49:16to be her assistant?
00:49:17I mean,
00:49:18what does that say
00:49:18about her judgment?
00:49:19Damien,
00:49:21you have disappointed me
00:49:22beyond words.
00:49:24Serena,
00:49:24I did it because
00:49:25I cared about you.
00:49:26Because I care about
00:49:27Harper Enterprise.
00:49:28Please,
00:49:28I'm happy.
00:49:28You told me the truth.
00:49:30Enough.
00:49:31Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:33Mason Brooks,
00:49:34you're fired.
00:49:35Effective immediately.
00:49:38I'm done.
00:49:40The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:43Harper Enterprise
00:49:44is disqualified.
00:49:46Every single project
00:49:47Amber Group has done
00:49:48together with them
00:49:49will be suspended.
00:49:50The projects
00:49:51will be back for
00:49:52competitive bidding.
00:49:55No, no,
00:49:56you can't do that.
00:49:57Those projects
00:49:58are our next three years.
00:49:59They affect
00:50:00thousands of
00:50:01employees.
00:50:02Their lives
00:50:02are future.
00:50:04And why
00:50:04the person
00:50:05who hired trash
00:50:06and called it talent?
00:50:09Real talent.
00:50:15Pathetic.
00:50:21Serena.
00:50:24Please,
00:50:25you gotta let me explain.
00:50:27Miss Lawson,
00:50:28wait.
00:50:28Serena!
00:50:37I just avenged you
00:50:38in front of a lot of people.
00:50:40Asking for a dinner
00:50:41isn't too much, right?
00:50:43Not at all.
00:50:45You pick.
00:50:45My treat.
00:50:47Generous.
00:50:47Let's go.
00:50:49Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:52Miss Lawson,
00:50:54Damien was wrong
00:50:56to bribe anyone
00:50:57and I apologize
00:50:59on his behalf.
00:51:00Just please
00:51:02give Harper Enterprise
00:51:04another chance.
00:51:05I will meet
00:51:06the highest standards.
00:51:08I will deliver
00:51:08a perfect result
00:51:09on every project.
00:51:11Perfect result?
00:51:12And what exactly
00:51:14guarantees that?
00:51:15Your empty suit
00:51:16assistant?
00:51:18Miss Lawson,
00:51:20Damien made a mistake
00:51:22but his ability
00:51:24is exceptional.
00:51:26For six months
00:51:27he managed
00:51:27every Harper Enterprise
00:51:29project flawlessly.
00:51:30No errors,
00:51:31no delays.
00:51:31If you don't pull
00:51:32this contract,
00:51:33I guarantee
00:51:35he will make sure
00:51:36you see his value.
00:51:40Managed flawlessly?
00:51:41He's not the only
00:51:42empty suit here.
00:51:45Year or two.
00:51:46Miss Lawson,
00:51:47you are crossing
00:51:48a line.
00:51:51I understand
00:51:52that you
00:51:54and Julian
00:51:54are close
00:51:55and you want
00:51:55to get back
00:51:56at me for him
00:51:56but humiliating
00:51:58someone like this,
00:51:59isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:00You really think
00:52:01I froze our cooperation
00:52:03because Damien,
00:52:04right?
00:52:04Mason?
00:52:06Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:08For six months,
00:52:10Harper Enterprise
00:52:11got everything
00:52:12it wanted
00:52:13from Ember Group
00:52:14for one reason.
00:52:17Julian Clark.
00:52:19Damien
00:52:19has nothing
00:52:21to do with that.
00:52:22He was just
00:52:22a messenger boy
00:52:23who picked up
00:52:24the contracts.
00:52:25What?
00:52:26When Julian
00:52:27was there,
00:52:28bribe or no bribe,
00:52:30Harper Enterprise
00:52:30got the deals
00:52:32anyway.
00:52:33But now,
00:52:34Julian's gone
00:52:35so the special
00:52:36treatment is gone.
00:52:37Damien's little
00:52:38ribbing incident,
00:52:40it was just
00:52:40a convenient excuse
00:52:41to take everything back.
00:52:43Understand now?
00:52:48And about those
00:52:49flawless projects,
00:52:51Harper Enterprise
00:52:52didn't run smoothly
00:52:53because Damien
00:52:54is brilliant.
00:52:55It ran smoothly
00:52:56because Julian
00:52:57called every partner,
00:52:59every supplier,
00:53:01every gatekeeper
00:53:02and cleared
00:53:02the path for you.
00:53:04Damien had nothing
00:53:05to do with that.
00:53:08No.
00:53:10That's not
00:53:11true.
00:53:12I don't believe it.
00:53:13You don't believe me?
00:53:14Then watch.
00:53:16Watch what happens
00:53:18when Julian leaves.
00:53:20Let's see if
00:53:20your exceptional
00:53:21Damien can keep
00:53:22everything perfect
00:53:23when Julian
00:53:24is not there
00:53:25to hold
00:53:25the world
00:53:26together for you.
00:53:29Come on,
00:53:29let's go.
00:53:36Julian,
00:53:37is what she's saying
00:53:38true?
00:53:40You were right
00:53:41about one thing,
00:53:42Serena.
00:53:43Julian and I
00:53:44are closer
00:53:44than you thought.
00:53:46That's why it disgusts
00:53:47me watching him
00:53:48waste his life away
00:53:49on a selfish
00:53:50and blind woman
00:53:51like you.
00:53:56Was I wrong?
00:53:57No, no, no,
00:53:58Serena, Serena,
00:53:59do not listen
00:53:59to her nonsense.
00:54:01Harper's success
00:54:01is based off
00:54:02of my hard work.
00:54:04Okay, Nora Lawson,
00:54:05she's attacking
00:54:06and surrendering
00:54:07my name
00:54:08to defend.
00:54:09Julian,
00:54:09you have to believe me.
00:54:10Please,

00:54:13Crescent Lake
00:54:14is gone.
00:54:15Every Amber
00:54:16project is gone.
00:54:18Harper Enterprise
00:54:19is on the edge
00:54:20of collapse
00:54:20and you're asking
00:54:21me to trust you?

00:54:23Tell me,
00:54:24how?
00:54:25Please,

00:54:27Okay, yeah,
00:54:28we lost Amber
00:54:28group,
00:54:28but we're not finished.
00:54:31I mean,
00:54:31we still have
00:54:31the partners
00:54:32and the CEOs.
00:54:33I mean,
00:54:33they love me.
00:54:33They absolutely
00:54:34love and adore me.
00:54:36I promise.
00:54:37You know what?
00:54:37Matter of fact,
00:54:38I'm going to call
00:54:39and I'm going to
00:54:39get you some
00:54:39new projects
00:54:40right now.
00:54:44Hello,
00:54:45Mr. Foster.
00:54:46It's Damien here.
00:54:46I hear the
00:54:47Grandview Plaza
00:54:48is taking bids
00:54:49and Harper Enterprise.
00:54:50You know,
00:54:51we would absolutely
00:54:51love.
00:54:53Harper Enterprise,
00:54:54who the
00:54:54hell is that?
00:54:55Do you think
00:54:55you're even
00:54:56in the same
00:54:56league as
00:54:57Grandview Plaza?
00:54:58Uh,
00:55:00Mr. Foster,
00:55:01what do you mean?
00:55:03Last time we spoke,
00:55:04you said that
00:55:05you believed
00:55:06in the Harper Enterprise
00:55:07and that you
00:55:07would love
00:55:08to work together.
00:55:09Listen up!
00:55:10That's because
00:55:10Julian Clark

00:55:12damn Enterprise.
00:55:13I was giving
00:55:14him respect.

00:55:42the deal?
00:55:43Who gave

00:56:14polite enough
00:56:15to tolerate you
00:56:16playing sideman
00:56:16with his fiance.

00:56:26What the fuck
00:56:27is happening?
00:56:34Miss Harper?
00:56:35This is bad.
00:56:37Our partners
00:56:37are flooding us
00:56:38with messages.
00:56:39They're suspending
00:56:39contracts,
00:56:40pulling out of deals.
00:56:41Wait,
00:56:42what is happening?
00:56:43They said
00:56:44before they
00:56:45only worked
00:56:45with Harper
00:56:45Enterprise
00:56:46because Julian
00:56:47Clark backed
00:56:48us.
00:56:48Now that he's
00:56:48gone,
00:56:49they don't trust
00:56:49us with their
00:56:50project.
00:56:51Julian.
00:56:54It's Julian
00:56:54again.
00:56:57So,
00:56:58it's true.
00:57:00They only
00:57:01gave us
00:57:02deals
00:57:02because of
00:57:03Julian.
00:57:05Julian!
00:57:05No,
00:57:06no,
00:57:06please,
00:57:06okay?
00:57:07They're just
00:57:08saying that
00:57:08because Julian
00:57:09has been
00:57:09paying them
00:57:10off.
00:57:10Think about
00:57:10it,
00:57:11okay?
00:57:11But you
00:57:11know what?
00:57:12Just give

00:57:13new projects.
00:57:14I'll get
00:57:14you some
00:57:15new projects.
00:57:15I swear.

00:57:17from me!
00:57:18You liar!
00:57:20You fraud,
00:57:20Damien!
00:57:21All those
00:57:22CEOs,

00:57:25contracts
00:57:26from them
00:57:26and you
00:57:27told me
00:57:27you negotiated
00:57:29the deals.
00:57:30I swear,
00:57:30I didn't
00:57:31know that
00:57:32they would.

00:57:57close to locking
00:57:58Serena down,
00:57:59stepping into
00:58:00the upper circle.
00:58:00I'm not
00:58:01letting it
00:58:01end like
00:58:02this.
00:58:07Serena,
00:58:08you really
00:58:09thought you
00:58:09were smart.
00:58:11But you're
00:58:12really just
00:58:12pathetic,
00:58:14trash.
00:58:16Without Julian,
00:58:18you're nothing.
00:58:26You're nothing.
00:58:28Dad warned you.
00:58:30Grandpa warned you.
00:58:32And you
00:58:33still
00:58:33wouldn't
00:58:35listen.
00:58:37You, like,
00:58:38learned everything
00:58:39Julian did
00:58:40and worshipped
00:58:41a con artist
00:58:42like
00:58:42Damien.
00:58:46Stupid.
00:58:55And now
00:58:56look at you.
00:58:59Projects
00:59:00gone.
00:59:01Company
00:59:02collapsing.
00:59:05Idiot.
00:59:06Arrogant.
00:59:08Stupid.
00:59:09Idiot.
00:59:11So stupid.
00:59:18Julian,
00:59:19I'm sorry.
00:59:27I'm so sorry.
00:59:28I'm so sorry.
00:59:29I'm so sorry.
00:59:29Listen.
00:59:31I know I messed up.
00:59:34Whoa.
00:59:38Julian,
00:59:40I'm sorry.
00:59:42I know,
00:59:43I know I was

01:00:07Harper
01:00:08Enterprise's
01:00:08business queen
01:00:09is so much
01:00:10better than
01:00:10those cheap
01:00:11girls.
01:00:12Once I lock
01:00:12her down,
01:00:13Harper

01:01:02All right?
01:01:04You're not gonna say no.
01:01:05I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:07No!
01:01:08Help!
01:01:09Help!
01:01:11Julian!
01:01:12Julian,
01:01:13help!
01:01:14Oh!
01:01:16Get him out of here!
01:01:18Stop!
01:01:18Let me go!
01:01:20Julian,
01:01:20you're always
01:01:21running the fucking
01:01:21lights.
01:01:22This isn't over.
01:01:27I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:29Thank God
01:01:30you came
01:01:30and you had like-
01:01:31We are not that close.
01:01:35I was just passing through.
01:01:36I heard some screaming,
01:01:37so I stopped by to check.
01:01:39You.
01:01:39I want you to call
01:01:40the Harper family.
01:01:42Tell them to come to Carl.
01:01:43Yes, sir.
01:01:46Julian,
01:01:47I am sorry.
01:01:49I know.
01:01:50I was wrong.
01:01:51I just...
01:01:52Please come back.
01:01:54Julian!
01:01:56Our reservation
01:01:57is in 10 minutes.
01:01:58Let's go.
01:02:06Serena,
01:02:08I told you
01:02:09over and over
01:02:12and over again
01:02:14that Damien
01:02:15was not a good man
01:02:17and you refused
01:02:18to listen.
01:02:21Julian and Julian.
01:02:22If Julian doesn't
01:02:23come along,
01:02:23just at the right time.
01:02:25Oh my God.
01:02:27I can't even...
01:02:28I can't even think
01:02:29about it.
01:02:30If you don't do
01:02:31something about
01:02:31that stubborn pride
01:02:32of yours,
01:02:33one day,
01:02:35you live to regret it.
01:02:36Dad,
01:02:36Grandpa,
01:02:37please stop.
01:02:38I know I was wrong,
01:02:40okay?
01:02:41I'll...
01:02:42I'll apologize
01:02:44to Julian
01:02:45and I will
01:02:47follow through
01:02:48with the engagement.
01:02:50The problem with that
01:02:51is that you may feel
01:02:52that way,
01:02:53but Julian might not.
01:02:55Grandpa,
01:02:57don't worry.
01:02:59I will apologize
01:03:01properly
01:03:01and I will earn
01:03:03his forgiveness.
01:03:05That's all we can do.
01:03:07So, John,
01:03:09put out a citywide
01:03:11bolo
01:03:11on that
01:03:12bastard Damien.
01:03:15He put his hands
01:03:15on my granddaughter.
01:03:17We're not letting
01:03:18that go.
01:03:20No,
01:03:21we're not.
01:03:22Understood.
01:03:54Oh,
01:03:54my dear
01:03:55Miss Lawson.
01:04:01What is this
01:04:01supposed to be?
01:04:03A gift
01:04:03for you.
01:04:05Myself.
01:04:07I'll give you
01:04:0830% equity.
01:04:09Every group
01:04:10backs you up,
01:04:11no questions asked.
01:04:13But first,
01:04:14you have to
01:04:15accept the gift
01:04:16properly.
01:04:27Hey,
01:04:28can you not
01:04:29do that?
01:04:30You're making
01:04:31this incredibly
01:04:31awkward.
01:04:33You know
01:04:34a woman like me
01:04:34shows up
01:04:35a gift
01:04:36wrapped
01:04:36and
01:04:36any man
01:04:37would have,
01:04:37you know,
01:04:39housed me by now.
01:04:41Don't tell me
01:04:42you're still hung up
01:04:43on Serena.
01:04:44Hung up?
01:04:46Why don't I be
01:04:47hung up on Serena?
01:04:48She and I
01:04:49were never romantic.
01:04:51No,
01:04:51it's just a
01:04:52business marriage
01:04:53between two families.
01:04:55Things are moving
01:04:56too fast.
01:04:57You gotta think
01:04:58twice.
01:04:58but I don't
01:05:00have time.
01:05:01My family
01:05:02is preparing
01:05:02to send me off
01:05:03into a
01:05:04European alliance.
01:05:06Some
01:05:07old money
01:05:08perfect match
01:05:09they can show off
01:05:10with all us.
01:05:11Wait,
01:05:11what are you
01:05:12talking about?
01:05:12Are you serious?
01:05:13Yes,
01:05:13Julian.
01:05:15My uncle
01:05:15is thirsty
01:05:16for my family's
01:05:17fortune and
01:05:18he'll do whatever
01:05:19it takes to get rid
01:05:20of me permanently.
01:05:20But I don't want
01:05:21a stranger.
01:05:22I want you.
01:05:23I love you.
01:05:25Julian,
01:05:28let's make it
01:05:28official.
01:05:30Let's get married.
01:05:33You know,
01:05:34if you'll marry me,
01:05:37my family won't
01:05:38dare object.
01:05:40please,
01:05:41Julian.
01:05:51Okay.
01:05:53I'll marry you.
01:05:55Are you serious?
01:05:57No take backs.
01:05:58No take backs.
01:05:59Ever.
01:05:59Ever.
01:06:00I knew you
01:06:01wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:03But can you
01:06:05help me out?
01:06:06Um,
01:06:07my hands are getting
01:06:10so impatient.
01:06:14It's like you
01:06:15said,
01:06:16if I accept
01:06:18the gift,
01:06:20then our
01:06:21engagement
01:06:21becomes official.
01:06:26Then be gentle.
01:06:35Julian,
01:06:36you
01:06:38didn't forget
01:06:39what you promised
01:06:39last night,
01:06:40right?
01:06:41Uh,
01:06:41no,
01:06:42because I
01:06:42actually wasn't
01:06:43drunk.
01:06:44Of course I remember
01:06:45that.
01:06:46You know,
01:06:46when someone
01:06:47wraps themselves
01:06:47as a gift,
01:06:48you kind of,
01:06:49you kind of remember
01:06:50that for the rest
01:06:51of your life.
01:06:51Details.
01:06:53Those are just
01:06:54tiny details.
01:06:57Look like big details
01:06:58to me.
01:07:01Julian,
01:07:04can I talk
01:07:04to you alone
01:07:05for a second?
01:07:07Serena,
01:07:07I really don't think
01:07:08there's anything
01:07:08we need to discuss.
01:07:09Julian,
01:07:10I was wrong.
01:07:10I never should have
01:07:11trusted Damien.
01:07:12I misjudged
01:07:13everything.
01:07:14Please,
01:07:15just give me
01:07:15one more chance
01:07:16and I'll honor
01:07:18the engagement.
01:07:18And if you take me
01:07:20back,
01:07:20just tell me what
01:07:21you want.
01:07:21I'll do anything.
01:07:22I'm sorry,
01:07:23I'm Nora's boyfriend
01:07:24right now.
01:07:28Boyfriend?
01:07:34Serena,
01:07:35you once said
01:07:35you hate
01:07:36arranged marriages.
01:07:37Well,
01:07:38Julian hates them too.
01:07:40And yet,
01:07:41you stayed at
01:07:41Harper Enterprise
01:07:42for six full months.
01:07:44He asked you out
01:07:4537 times.
01:07:46So tell me,
01:07:47what exactly
01:07:48are you proud of?
01:07:50Hmm?
01:07:52Men like him?
01:07:54If you treat him
01:07:55like trash,
01:07:56someone else
01:07:57will treat him
01:07:57like treasure.
01:07:59Listen carefully,
01:08:00we are together now,
01:08:01so better keep
01:08:03your distance.
01:08:03If you don't,
01:08:06I won't be
01:08:07so nice about it.
01:08:09Come on.
01:08:10We're trying on
01:08:11our wedding outfits
01:08:12tonight.
01:08:13Let's not be late.
01:08:14Wedding outfits.
01:08:17Let's go.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:32So how did it go?
01:08:34Julian?
01:08:35He's with Nora.
01:08:40Nora.
01:08:42Nora Lawson,
01:08:44CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:45Of course.
01:08:47You know,
01:08:48Serena,
01:08:48it's an elite
01:08:49like Julian.
01:08:51The second
01:08:52you let go,
01:08:53somebody comes
01:08:53and grabs him.
01:08:54You don't get
01:08:55another chance.
01:08:57God gave
01:08:57our family a chance
01:08:58and we blew it.
01:09:01God,
01:09:02forgive the Harper's.
01:09:04Please.
01:09:06Ms. Hopper,
01:09:08finance sent
01:09:08the latest reports.
01:09:10Hopper Enterprise's
01:09:11cash flow has
01:09:12collapsed.
01:09:13If we don't act
01:09:14immediately,
01:09:14we won't even have
01:09:16enough to make
01:09:16payroll this month.
01:09:19great.
01:09:20Now all of Wall Street
01:09:21knows that we
01:09:22crossed Julian.
01:09:24That was going to
01:09:24lend to us now.
01:09:26How are we supposed
01:09:26to get financing?
01:09:27This is my fault,
01:09:29okay?
01:09:30I was blind.
01:09:31Are you proud now?
01:09:33I actually believed
01:09:35I was some
01:09:36business queen.
01:09:37I didn't realize
01:09:39that Julian
01:09:40was running
01:09:41everything.
01:09:42And the moment
01:09:42he's gone,
01:09:43I can't do anything.
01:09:46Dad,
01:09:47Grandpa,
01:09:48I'm so sorry.
01:09:50I ruined
01:09:51Harper Enterprise.
01:09:52I ruined everything.
01:09:54Dad,
01:09:56you're the one
01:09:56who arranged
01:09:57the engagement
01:09:58with Julian's
01:09:58grandfather,
01:09:59right?
01:10:00So maybe
01:10:01you should go
01:10:01talk to him
01:10:02and see if
01:10:03he'll give us
01:10:03a second chance.
01:10:05Yes,
01:10:05Grandpa.
01:10:06Julian listens
01:10:08to his grandfather.
01:10:09If we can get
01:10:10his acceptance
01:10:11and...
01:10:12Clark family
01:10:12isn't what
01:10:13it used to be.
01:10:15Yes,
01:10:16they honored
01:10:17our engagement.
01:10:19And that was
01:10:20a mercy.
01:10:21That was a blessing.
01:10:23But you
01:10:24threw it away.
01:10:27Still,
01:10:29for your sake
01:10:30and for your future,
01:10:31and for our future,
01:10:34we'll fight.
01:10:41Serena,
01:10:43when you see
01:10:44Julian's grandfather,
01:10:45your apology
01:10:47has to be
01:10:47sincere.
01:10:50If he forgives you,
01:10:52only then
01:10:53will you know
01:10:54that you have a chance
01:10:55to get Julian back.
01:10:57Understood, Grandpa.
01:10:59For the Harper family,
01:11:00I'll do whatever
01:11:01it takes.
01:11:17Welcome!
01:11:18You must be here
01:11:19for Mr. Clark
01:11:20and Ms. Lawson's
01:11:21engagement party.
01:11:23engagement party.
01:11:23Perfect timing.
01:11:24They're just
01:11:25about to start.
01:11:26Engagement party?
01:11:28So they're
01:11:29really engaged?
01:11:31Wait,
01:11:31how is this
01:11:32all happening
01:11:33so fast?
01:11:35What is this
01:11:35supposed to mean?
01:11:37Mr. Clark
01:11:38and Ms. Lawson
01:11:39have known each other
01:11:40since they were born
01:11:40and everyone
01:11:41is so happy
01:11:42that they're
01:11:43finally getting married.
01:11:44Oh,
01:11:45oh,
01:11:45I see.
01:11:47You didn't come here
01:11:48to congratulate
01:11:49them, right?
01:11:50Then,
01:11:51please leave.
01:11:52Otherwise,
01:11:53I will have to
01:11:54call security.
01:12:00If there's
01:12:01an engagement party,
01:12:02that means
01:12:03Julian's grandfather
01:12:04has already
01:12:05approved
01:12:06of an engagement.
01:12:08And that means
01:12:09we're done.
01:12:12There's no more
01:12:12chances left.
01:12:14We're leaving.
01:12:15Is this
01:12:16my punishment?
01:12:19All right,
01:12:21everyone.
01:12:21Big smiles.
01:12:38Julian,
01:12:39are you okay?
01:12:41Hey.
01:12:42Hey.
01:12:47What is it?
01:12:48Oh,
01:12:49it's nothing.
01:12:49Come on,
01:12:50dinner's almost ready.
01:13:04Dad?
01:13:06The Harper's?
01:13:07My grandson grew up
01:13:09with everything.
01:13:12For him,
01:13:14his six months
01:13:15at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:17it was a total
01:13:18humiliation.
01:13:20We've shown the Harper
01:13:22more mercy
01:13:23than he ever deserved.
01:13:24the Harper's Day.
01:13:26was the Harper's Day
01:13:27old man,
01:13:27The Harper's Day
01:13:34the daughter
01:13:35okay, enough,
01:13:36Serena.
01:13:36Stop.
01:13:37You can't drink
01:13:38this away.
01:13:39Harper Enterprise
01:13:40is hanging on
01:13:41by a thread.
01:13:42If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:46Just leave me the fuck alone, okay?
01:13:49Just let me drink.
01:13:50I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:52I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:54No, you...
01:13:57Alright, I've gotta take this.
01:13:59Don't move.
01:14:00I'll be right back and then I am taking you home.
01:14:12Nora.
01:14:15Okay, Nora, be honest.
01:14:17You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:20You just got engaged and you're getting married next week?
01:14:24Let's see.
01:14:25You've known Julian for 20 plus years.
01:14:28You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:30I've liked Julian for 20 years and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:35You think I'm not gonna lock it down now?
01:14:37Lock it down from what?
01:14:38From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:40They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:44I have to move fast.
01:14:46If they start begging, what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:52But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:14:55There's no real love.
01:14:56Why will Julian hesitate?
01:14:58What are you afraid of?
01:14:59You don't get it.
01:15:01Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:15:05and it wasn't just because his grandfather would order it.
01:15:08Then why?
01:15:10Because Serena is his type.
01:15:15Wait.
01:15:16What?
01:15:18I am Julian's type?
01:15:22No way!
01:15:23I'm serious.
01:15:25The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:27That exact type.
01:15:29I mean, with his personality, even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:34he would have stayed there for three days max and then vanished.
01:15:37He would not stay there and take six months of humiliation if he didn't want it.
01:15:44That's Julian Clark.
01:15:45So that's why?
01:15:48Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:50I have to get married fast.
01:15:52I cannot give her a single chance.
01:15:55So that's what it was.
01:15:57Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months because I'm his type.
01:16:01He likes me.
01:16:02That means I still have a chance.
01:16:04I still have a chance.
01:16:06I still have a chance.
01:16:06This is my last shot.
01:16:08I am not wasting it.
01:16:16Where is she?
01:16:23Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:39Wow.
01:16:41They look perfect together.
01:16:43They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:44The whole fantasy.
01:16:45Oh my god, brilliant.
01:16:48And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:03Wait!
01:17:10Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:14Who is that?
01:17:15Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:16CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:18You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO and then kicked him out like he was
01:17:23nothing?
01:17:24Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:27Pathetic.
01:17:28Wait!
01:17:30Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:35Julian, I know you like me.
01:17:37You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:46I know.
01:17:48I was wrong.
01:17:49Totally wrong.
01:17:49Okay?
01:17:50Just please.
01:17:52Give me another chance.
01:17:56Our engagement is over.
01:17:58In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:01Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:03Have some dignity.
01:18:05In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:06No, please.
01:18:07I'll do anything.
01:18:09Just...
01:18:10Stop.
01:18:14I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times, but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:22I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:18:27Look it up.
01:18:28Can we please get her out?
01:18:29No, don't touch me!
01:18:31Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:33I know you like me, so why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:37Why?
01:18:42Simple question.
01:18:43Do you love me?
01:18:47I...
01:18:48Exactly.
01:18:48You don't.
01:18:50You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:52You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:18:55See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:18:59You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:04No, that...
01:19:05That's not true.
01:19:07Just please.
01:19:09Listen.
01:19:10Please, listen.
01:19:11Enough, Serena.
01:19:12When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise, do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:17Let me ask you this.
01:19:19If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed, if your value kept climbing, would you still be here standing in front of
01:19:24me today?
01:19:28I...
01:19:28I...
01:19:28No, no, you wouldn't. You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:31You'd be celebrating.
01:19:33You'd say that you earned the business queen crown.
01:19:35You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:38You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:40Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:43No.
01:19:45No, Juliana.
01:19:46That's not me.
01:19:48Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:50You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:52But on my wedding day, you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:19:55Why?
01:19:55Because you want me back as your lifeline, your donor, your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:02But the moment I stop being useful, you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:07No.
01:20:09No, Juliana.
01:20:10That is not true.
01:20:12The night that you saved me from Damien, I...
01:20:17I felt something for you.
01:20:19I-I did!
01:20:20Stop!
01:20:20Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:23You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:24You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:26You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:29You know, I'll admit, when I met you, you were exactly my type.
01:20:35But once I got to know you, once I realized what you really are, all I felt was disgust.
01:20:43But Nora?
01:20:46She has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:51When I was sick, she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:20:55When I was at my lowest, she pulled me back up.
01:20:58Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement,
01:21:03she still supported me.
01:21:04She still took hits from me.
01:21:09So, let me ask you.
01:21:12Why would I give up all of that for you?
01:21:16What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:23Get her out.
01:21:24No, no.
01:21:25No, please don't, Juliana.
01:21:27Don't, don't.
01:21:28I'm begging you, just please let me explain!
01:21:31Please!
01:21:32Please, let me, please stop, let me go!
01:21:34No!
01:21:34Juliana, please don't do it!
01:21:37Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:38I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:40Turns out, she just realized, without Juliana, she can't stay on top.
01:21:44She used Juliana's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:47Totally vampire-drained and dry.
01:21:48weren't you.
01:21:50и
01:22:05hi!
01:22:06Dude!
01:22:17We have to quite a few hours of service to date.
01:22:18Not if we fail.
01:22:18Mr. Clark!
01:22:37I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:39Harper Enterprise, effective today, has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:43So, we're all being terminated.
01:22:46What?
01:22:48Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:50I've given this company 15 years. You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:22:5515 years, wow. Congratulations.
01:22:58You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:04You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:07You've seen how you all work.
01:23:08Mr. Clark, bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:18Everyone of you has a file.
01:23:20So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms.
01:23:24And once you sign them, hand over your badges, or you're going to rob him.
01:23:31This, this is it.
01:23:47Are you satisfied now?
01:23:50Satisfied?
01:23:52Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:53He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:23:58I saved you.
01:24:01Julian.
01:24:04If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:18Julian, why didn't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:21I spent my whole life climbing upwards and now I'm stuck at the bottom.
01:24:24Hunted by cops. I won't accept it.
01:24:28Julian, watch out!
01:24:29Julian!
01:24:34Let me go! Fucking let me go!
01:24:36I already spared you. You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:40Y'all, take him to the police.
01:24:41Get the best lawyer money can buy. I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:44Fucking coward! You're a fucking coward!
01:24:46Hiding behind your goddamn family's money!
01:24:48No, no, fight me! 101! 101, let the guards go!
