00:00:26Everything we need for the next 72 hours.
00:00:28It's liquid, untouchable.
00:00:32Derek has already started moving against you.
00:00:34Lining up investors, whispering about Apex's collapse.
00:00:37He wants to destroy you, Chris.
00:00:40Exactly how I planned.
00:00:42You can't bait a shark without a little blood in the water.
00:00:45I've already sent over the forged balance sheets.
00:00:47The fake foreclosure notices.
00:00:48Enough evidence to convince the world that Apex is circling the drain.
00:00:51He'll think he's scooped everyone.
00:00:53Good.
00:00:54Give him what he wants.
00:00:55The company on its knees.
00:00:56And while he gloats, we prepare the kill shot.
00:01:01The shareholder vote is in three days.
00:01:03When we move, Apex swallows Langford Capital whole.
00:01:06And when the dust settles, Derek won't just lose the company.
00:01:11He knows everything.

00:14:26what's next Chris you're gonna try to sell us unicorn tears in a jar
00:14:29laugh all you want but this could be the only thing that can actually cure him
00:14:32this isn't some medical breakthrough
00:14:35this is all about your ego
00:14:37because you cannot stand the fact that we all know that you are useless so you just make up fantasies
00:14:44I mean what is next Chris you're gonna sprinkle fairy notes on my father and tell us that he's healed
00:14:49what are you just gonna bring him over to the garage and hook him up to jumper cables
00:14:52you're a fraud and you always have been
00:14:53if you lay a finger on him you'll kill him faster than the disease itself

00:15:04chief of medicine over at Crestview Hospital
00:15:06a real doctor with real credentials
00:15:09and expensive

00:15:12because unlike your made up magical cure
00:15:15he's not gonna kill my father
00:15:16that's what a real son-in-law does
00:15:19he is generous
00:15:20and he is serious about family
00:15:23unlike this twisted truth fucker
00:15:27you think your limp dick husband is gonna compete with that?
00:15:30please

00:33:30I believe your son-in-law works
00:33:32with one of our affiliate banks
00:33:34I thought since I'm in town
00:33:35I'd put a face to the name
00:33:36that I've heard such good things about
00:33:39Tom Hayden
00:33:40Assistant VP Commercial Lending
00:33:41mentioned on our vendor list last year
00:33:44Tom
00:33:45it's a pleasure

00:33:46you get my full attention
00:33:48I appreciate that
00:33:50thank you sweetheart
00:33:52while I'm here
00:33:54I thought I'd clear up a few questions
00:33:56that the market has been whispering about
00:33:59questions
00:34:00okay
00:34:00Apex Group
00:34:02if Chris Bell truly is at the helm
00:34:04then the bankruptcy rumors don't add up
00:34:06I know this was his last address on file
00:34:10is he here?
00:34:24is he here?
00:34:26uh
00:34:26Chris
00:34:27oh no
00:34:28he is a loser
00:34:29who we kicked out

00:34:33and the marriage
00:34:34to our daughter
00:34:36that's been annulled
00:34:37he is no longer part of the family
00:34:39actually
00:34:39he's a shit stain
00:34:40and if he's in trouble
00:34:42that's his problem
00:34:42these idiots have no idea what they've done
00:34:47Miss Barron
00:34:48I don't think you understand
00:34:50we despise him
00:34:52and if we could cut him up
00:34:54into like tiny little itty bitty bite-sized pieces
00:34:57we would
00:34:59excuse me
00:34:59cut him to what now?
00:35:01small pieces
00:35:02and that's not all I would do
00:35:03if I could
00:35:04I would skin him alive
00:35:06I would
00:35:07break every bone in his body
00:35:09and then
00:35:10I would suck his blood dry
00:35:15he's scary
00:35:17he just never really knew his place
00:35:19he clung to Sophia
00:35:21and then he used all of us
00:35:23so you thought Chris Bell was not good enough
00:35:25to marry into this family?
00:35:27no
00:35:29bingo
00:35:30don't you worry
00:35:31the world is better with him
00:35:32buried in a ditch
00:35:33I'm sorry
00:35:34where is he now?
00:35:38Derek's security detail
00:35:39took him to Langford capital
00:35:41yes
00:35:41the guards have probably already beat him
00:35:43halfway to death
00:35:43but don't worry
00:35:44Miss Barron
00:35:44I mean none of us here feel sorry for him
00:35:46and I think I speak on behalf of everyone on this couch
00:35:49when I say we'd all be a lot happier
00:35:50if they just finished the job
00:35:56you said that he was at Langford capital
00:35:57yeah in a storage room
00:35:58in the basement
00:35:59Derek wanted to take him to a place
00:36:01where nobody could hear him scream
00:36:02ah
00:36:02like
00:36:03yes
00:36:04oh
00:36:06congratulations

00:36:14that did sound good
00:36:15what the hell's our problem?
00:36:16yeah and why all of a sudden
00:36:17does she care about Chris Senth's well-being?
00:36:20no
00:36:22she's sleeping with him
00:36:24oh yes
00:36:25yes yes
00:36:26excuse me
00:36:27I mean why else would a woman like that
00:36:28care about financial corpses?
00:36:30oh
00:36:31it's all so clear now
00:36:33the drones
00:36:34that theatrics
00:36:35Chris was trying to impress her
00:36:37Baron Holdings
00:36:38they protect their own
00:36:39she's probably fun meeting him on the side
00:36:41probably a lot more than that
00:36:43hopefully
00:36:44that's true
00:36:45and they're still entangled

01:04:10where your husband is circling the drain
01:04:13you chose wrong darling
01:04:15looking forward to today's agenda
01:04:17the first thing we will do
01:04:19is be looking at last quarter's
01:04:20financial results
01:04:21uh this is going to
01:04:36isn't that Chris Bell
01:04:39I heard he was homeless
01:04:41and bankrupt
01:04:42oh god
01:04:43he's about to humiliate himself
01:04:44again
01:04:45maybe they'll catch it on camera
01:04:48Chris Bell
01:04:49crashing my party
01:04:50bold move
01:04:51pointless
01:04:53the cold
01:04:55you don't belong
01:04:56in this room
01:04:57you said it yourself
01:04:58you're toxic
01:05:00correction
01:05:00I own this room
01:05:02and it's not the only thing
01:05:05that I own
01:05:06what are you babbling on about
01:05:08I own
01:05:09Barron Holdings too
01:05:12that's insane
01:05:13impossible
01:05:15not possible
01:05:16calculate it
01:05:17you see what Derek was busy
01:05:20gloating about my supposed bankruptcy
01:05:22Apex Global
01:05:23quietly built a shadow position
01:05:25in Barron Holdings
01:05:26so by the time he poured the champagne
01:05:29and whispered sweet mergers in Marina's ear
01:05:31I already owned her board
01:05:34so
01:05:35when Langford merged with Barron just this morning
01:05:39guess who's controlling vote
01:05:41dictated the terms
01:05:45Derrick
01:05:46that merger that you bragged about
01:05:49it wasn't your crowning move
01:05:51it was my endgame
01:05:54it wasn't your crowning move
01:05:56it was my endgame
01:05:58Barron swallowed Langford whole
01:06:00and since I own Barron
01:06:01that makes me majority shareholder
01:06:04which means
01:06:05Derrick
01:06:06I'm not crashing your meeting
01:06:10I'm running it
01:06:12that can't be true
01:06:13we saw the bankruptcy filings
01:06:15he is bluffing
01:06:16he has to be bluffing
01:06:18he's pathological
01:06:19he's such a liar
01:06:20you're finished
01:06:21effective
01:06:23immediately
01:06:24you can't do that
01:06:25I just
01:06:25did
01:06:26and Marina
01:06:29that cushy seat next to him
01:06:31well that's gone too
01:06:32fortunately you aligned yourself with the wrong savior
01:06:34now you both report to me
01:06:37in fact let's make it official
01:06:39Derrick Langford and Marina Barron
01:06:42you both are just related
01:06:46I own the board
01:06:48I own the vote
01:06:50and now
01:06:54I own you
01:07:16I'm sure you all are wondering why
01:07:18I let the world think I was finished
01:07:20why I let everyone write my obituary
01:07:24why I just sat by quietly
01:07:28because when the predators start to circle
01:07:30you don't raise a red flag
01:07:33play dead
01:07:35you let them think
01:07:37that they've already won
01:07:39but I need the first move
01:07:42because if I didn't
01:07:43they certainly would've
01:07:45they weren't just eyeing a marriage
01:07:47between Langford and Barron
01:07:49they were coming for Apex too
01:07:52every seat
01:07:53every share
01:07:54and when the dust settled
01:07:56they would've left us
