00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour
00:00:09alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in ARC's valuation.
00:00:23I need you to buy the stock, alright?
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. We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julian, we need you. Again. Shit.
00:00:52We need your help. Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing? Good, 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?
00:01:34Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes.
00:01:40Chairman's orders.
00:01:41Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you.
00:01:46Watch your back.
00:02:13Today Damien successfully went on for the following week.
00:02:16neutralized 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 know how to take over 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? Damien took credit for his
00:02:38deal. Anthony pushed back and Damien used this pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:47Hello? Is there a problem? Because 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. Questions? I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:11Julian, the company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:16Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:21This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:25Wait, I'm sorry everyone. I forgot. You're just the resident good for nothing. My strategies,
00:03:31you 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? And what was their distinct objective? And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter. And what matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55Alright, fine. Next question.
00:03:57Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights? And what preferential terms did you promise them
00:04:01in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well, you can't even name the basics. Alright. So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross
00:04:14-functional war room,
00:04:15the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight, or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real. You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees video.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:45You know what, Clark? You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:59You hear that, Dad? I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:06Understood.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough. I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company. Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:21You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, uh, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:27Harper's, uh, old friends, 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. Our families go way back.
00:05:40Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life, my choice.
00:05:45Look, 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.
00:05:53You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:55Go work with Serena.
00:05:57And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:02You'll refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse, Doctor, I'm checking 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.
00:06:12Okay, all right.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:14I know what I'm asking.
00:06:17For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:21We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:23The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own.
00:06:29Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:32Enough of them.
00:06:33Please, for me.
00:06:35Fine.
00:06:37I'll do it.
00:06:39I hear you.
00:06:47For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using 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 this 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.
00:07:16So...
00:07:16Pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my door.
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 no!
00:07:26Or else I'm gonna call security and you're gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:31Julian, 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?
00:07:51Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:58You!
00:07:59Don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:03is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:06And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:09You're fucking nothing.
00:08:11You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:16Why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking-
00:08:20More what?
00:08:28You broke it.
00:08:29You broke my teeth.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:32A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your core street.
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, he broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:56He has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:59Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07I'll pay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What?
00:09:10One hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:16It'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 gonna 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 Beyonce?
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?
00:10:26Like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next?
00:10:28A private army?
00:10:29Alright, Julian.
00:10:30The 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.
00:10:41You heard that, Julian?
00:10:42Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I-
00:10:44Bro, get 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.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:12Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:14It can't be.
00:11:15That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:20The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:30I'm shaking, I'm broken, we stand tall.
00:11:43What?
00:11:46Mr. Brooks.
00:11:47Personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To Julian?
00:11:50Wait, the money is...
00:11:52It's real?
00:11:54Wait...
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean...
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00What?
00:12:01Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks.
00:12:10Sir.
00:12:11We 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, you dispose them.
00:12:26No, 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 hundred million dollar 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.
00:12:55Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:57The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, alright?
00:13:01You gotta fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated or I swear I'm gonna...
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us...
00:13:12One million.
00:13:12In full.
00:13:13Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:21You arrogant.
00:13:22Son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:28I bet you had to sell your house to scrape this together, you 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, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:46I don't know, maybe about...
00:13:48A hundred million?
00:13:49A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:55Have you lost your mind?
00:13:59A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian.
00:14:02The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:08That's illegal!
00:14:09So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:12By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:15Huh?
00:14:16That's a kisser.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:22What?
00:14:22A stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:26A hundred million dollars?
00:14:27I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:30Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:32But this isn't a standard, is it?
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?
00:14:40You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:48Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:50Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Bill Sullivan.
00:14:52SVP for Stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the three hundred million dollar partnership deal?
00:14:56Three hundred 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.
00:15:07I'm, I'm Serena Harper.
00:15:08Uh, CEO, do, what do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark.
00:15:11The security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:15And the signal originated here.
00:15:16We were concerned for your safety and came immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact?
00:15:23Triggered an alarm.
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:28It just took a fall.
00:15:31God.
00:15:31This damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be thirty million.
00:15:41Thirty million dollars?
00:15:43No, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:47Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50Well, open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop, with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:56You better pray that those data partitions are intact, or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:04It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:08I mean, with our declarations, this is at least seventy million dollars.
00:16:12What?
00:16:14That's seventy million dollars?
00:16:15What?
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:24Here.
00:16:25Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:29See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around a hundred million dollar laptop?
00:16:45Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52And there's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs a hundred million dollars.
00:16:56You know what?
00:16:56This is a fucking scam.
00:16:57These two, they're working together.
00:16:59I'm telling you, it's a con.
00:17:00What?
00:17:00Are you serious?
00:17:01I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:03I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:04I don't fly across the city of Skim and nobody like you.
00:17:08Listen, I'm so...
00:17:09This is Harper.
00:17:10This is the employee you hire.
00:17:12He's a fool.
00:17:13And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:16Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:19Consider it terminated.
00:17:21What?
00:17:21Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
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 Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:31You, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:38I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:45He never lost.
00:17:46Damien can't fight this.
00:17:48Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:52He's done for.
00:17:55Show me yourself.
00:17:57Please.
00:18:01Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:12I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:13You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:18Full payment.
00:18:19In my account.
00:18:21Within three days.
00:18:23In that case, we're done here.
00:18:25Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else?
00:18:28I'll do.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan, are our partners?
00:18:31Ms. Harper, get 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 and you swoop in the cover for him.
00:18:46You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:52Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business.
00:18:56We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian, I give you my word.
00:19:02The full amount will be paid within three days, but under one condition.
00:19:06Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:09And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:12Now.
00:19:13Did you hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:15Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:16But it's not about what you made.
00:19:18It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:19And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:22So get the fuck out!
00:19:24Get the fuck out?
00:19:26One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me, which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:37Probably he could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:42Stop.
00:19:43Stop!
00:19:48This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:52Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:55Funny.
00:19:56Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:58Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:13Get the fuck out!
00:20:15Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:18This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:20I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:23Security, remove him.
00:20:28Julian, please.
00:20:29Don't make us get physical.
00:20:30I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:32You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:34Ha ha ha ha!
00:20:35Sharon Harper brought you in!
00:20:38Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think you are?
00:20:41You, you, you think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:46The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55Well, it looks like I won't need that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:58Move.
00:20:59Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:05What the hell is going on in 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, what are you doing here?
00:21:21Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's, that's gone on today.
00:21:26I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:31Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:34What?
00:21:34Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:42Chairman Harper, he's, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:45How could you possibly?
00:21:46Shut up!
00:21:54How dare you disrespect Julian!
00:21:58Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has, you can't just hit people!
00:22:01I wish we hit him more.
00:22:03Sylvina, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't tell you everything because of your ego.
00:22:10And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:12You were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:18Sylvina, you've been blind.
00:22:20Julian is-
00:22:21Thomas, you can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:23No real feelings, no need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:27Julian, please, understand, all of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harperfin.
00:22:35Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:41Apologize to Julian!
00:22:43Now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:47To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:57I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:23:02Serena!
00:23:02Enough!
00:23:03Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Save it.
00:23:08If Serena can't manage an apology herself, then I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:15Issue my order.
00:23:17Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:19Cease every protective measure, effective immediately.
00:23:22Julian, please, don't.
00:23:24Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:33What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you could have just pulled the orders.
00:23:37What do you mean?
00:23:38Hostile takeover.
00:23:39All of my investors pulled out.
00:23:41How can that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52My entire division just stopped.
00:23:54We can't operate like this.
00:23:56A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant, leaving the group facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:10Why did Harper Enterprises suddenly lose power?
00:24:13What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:17How is that possible?
00:24:19Are you attacking the company?
00:24:20No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks.
00:24:30Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:32Miss Harper, this isn't a race!
00:24:34Our major partners are terminating their contracts!
00:24:37And our own liquidity can't cover the gas!
00:24:40If this continues, the stocks will crash straight through the floor!
00:24:44What did you say?
00:24:46Damn it!
00:24:47How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:50Why him?
00:24:51I won't accept this!
00:24:52I won't!
00:24:53Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:58Please!
00:24:58Apologize to Julian!
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena!
00:25:06Apologize!
00:25:08Serena!
00:25:11Serena!
00:25:18Apologize!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Serena!
00:25:19Do not apologize!
00:25:20Harper Enterprises worth hundreds of billions of dollars!
00:25:23You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:26Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:31to you!
00:25:32No!
00:25:33No!
00:25:34No!
00:25:35No!
00:25:35Your fucking fault!
00:25:36You apologize to Julian right now!
00:25:39Get on your n-
00:25:40Dad!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:44Dad!
00:25:44Stop!
00:25:45Damien has only ever stood up for me!
00:25:47He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you treat him like this!
00:25:50Stay out of the way!
00:25:51No!
00:25:53You really gonna go to war with Julian over this snake?
00:25:57Do you even have any idea who he really is?
00:26:00Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this!
00:26:03I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me!
00:26:10Serena, that is enough!
00:26:11So wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:14What about this guy?
00:26:15What about him?
00:26:16He hides behind your name to steal other people's work!
00:26:19He throws tea on me in this very room!
00:26:21He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a hundred thousand dollar watch!
00:26:24Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:25Alright!
00:26:28But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:32You're no saint!
00:26:34You're just biased!
00:26:36I've been engaged to you for the past six months!
00:26:39I have asked you out 37 times!
00:26:42Because I thought we should at least get to know each other!
00:26:44Every time I have asked you out, you said, I'm too busy with work!
00:26:48Sure!
00:26:49But that wasn't the truth!
00:26:50The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant!
00:26:54Listen to him and 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!
00:27:07Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:09Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:13I just, I can't stand him!
00:27:15A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:20So what if I did?
00:27:23Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice!
00:27:25We're engaged, not married!
00:27:28I can see whoever I want!
00:27:30Serena, shut up!
00:27:32No, I am not done!
00:27:34Damien has worked himself to the bone!
00:27:37He is driven and disciplined, and when Harper first went public, he was a key reason that we made it!
00:27:43If you had even half his talent, Julian, maybe I would have said yes to once.
00:27:49But you don't.
00:27:53Damien was a key reason you made it. That's your story, right?
00:27:56What is so funny?
00:27:57I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:28:01Do you know why, for the past six months, all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:06Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:09Why every time that you wanted a loan, the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:13Because Damien is brilliant!
00:28:15Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way!
00:28:18Damien? Brilliant?
00:28:20That was Julian!
00:28:23Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together!
00:28:27Serena!
00:28:28No, 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, I've called in 47 separate connections and cleared a path for you.
00:28:48Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange!
00:28:50And you know, I've made you Wall Street Business Queer!
00:28:53That's Iron Gate!
00:28:54North Bridge!
00:28:55And even Silver Line!
00:28:56Those are all the top 50 global giants!
00:28:58They've all been backing us behind the scenes!
00:29:00No wonder every project went so smoothly!
00:29:03Julian's the one with this kind of network!
00:29:05Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for 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 is what it is because of me and my hard work and my connections!
00:29:19Oh, you arrogant fool!
00:29:22Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:26Oh!
00:29:28Oh!
00:29:32Alright, that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:36He might go home.
00:29:37So as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:41Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:43But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go!
00:29:46I don't need a fiance who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections and my network, Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:57And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:30:01What?
00:30:02What?
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian!
00:30:07Julian!
00:30:07Stop sitting!
00:30:08Julian!
00:30:11Serena!
00:30:13You silly, foolish, foolish girl!
00:30:16Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:23Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper.
00:30:25I'm going to stand by Serena's side and I'm going to give her everything that I've got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all!
00:30:33Dad, that is enough!
00:30:36Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:40But I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:43And so will I.
00:30:46I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:55This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena, wait up!
00:30:59You!
00:31:00God!
00:31:00Tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:07Serena!
00:31:08Serena!
00:31:09Don't even worry about that.
00:31:11I know our enterprise took a huge hit today, but as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake
00:31:14project, change the game, and everyone will still think that we're in control. Easy!
00:31:20The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:23If we can win that contract, we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:29Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before, and I'm going to put this one in your hands, too.
00:31:35It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:36No, no, absolutely. You're going to count on me.
00:31:39Amber Group's deputy VP of projects? I mean, you trust me completely.
00:31:44He also spit his eyes.
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:55Once the Harper team arrives, we hand it straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson, we just got an update.
00:32:00Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she listened to her assistant, Damien, who really stirred the pot, and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks she got where she was because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your little lap dog?
00:32:22Then, do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:27Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake? Not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to public video.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:43Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien.
00:32:46Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:05Damien?
00:33:06What does this mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:12That's one million in clean crypto.
00:33:16Untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:21We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:25Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:29Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:41Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:47Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:34:06Okay.
00:34:17Well, um...
00:34:19Prince Julian.

00:51:08enterprise another chance i i will meet the highest standards i will deliver a perfect result
00:51:13on every project perfect result and what exactly guarantees that your empty suit assistant
00:51:22miss lawson damien made a mistake but but his ability is exceptional for six months he managed every
00:51:32harper enterprise project flawlessly no errors no delays if you don't pull this contract
00:51:38i guarantee he will make sure you see his value
00:51:45managed flawlessly he's not the only empty suit here
00:51:49you're too miss lawson you are crossing a line
00:51:56i understand that you and julian are close and you want to get back at me for him
00:52:01but humiliating someone like this isn't that a little cruel you really think i froze our cooperation
00:52:07because damien right mason wasn't that the reason for six months harper enterprise got everything it
00:52:17wanted from ember group for one reason julian clark damien has nothing to do with that he was
00:52:27just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts what when julian was there bribe or no bribe harper
00:52:34enterprise got the deals anyway but now julian's gone so the special treatment is gone damien's little
00:52:43arriving incident it was just a convenient excuse to take everything back understand now
00:52:52and about those flawless projects harper enterprise didn't run smoothly because
00:52:58damien is brilliant it ran smoothly because julian called every partner every supplier every gatekeeper
00:53:06and cleared the path for you damien had nothing to do with that no that's not true i i i
00:53:17don't believe
00:53:17you don't believe you don't believe me then watch watch what happens when julian leaves let's see if
00:53:25your exceptional damien can keep everything perfect when julian is not there to hold the world together
00:53:31for you come on let's go julian is what she's saying true you were right about one thing serena
00:53:47julian and i are closer than you thought that's why it disgusts me watching him waste his life away on
00:53:54a
00:53:54selfish and blind woman like you

01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business, Queen, is so much better than those cheap girls.

01:00:48Say yes.
01:00:50Please.
01:00:50What are you doing?
01:00:53Oh!
01:00:55Oh!
01:00:56You're dead!
01:00:56I'm sorry, help me!

01:01:12Help!
01:01:14Help!
01:01:15Help!
01:01:16Jillian!
01:01:17Jillian, I need help!
01:01:19Oh!
01:01:20Oh, fuck!
01:01:21Get him out of here!
01:01:23Stop!
01:01:23Let me go!
01:01:25Jillian, you're on this one of the fucking lines.
01:01:27This isn't over.
01:01:33Jillian, please.
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had like...
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.
01:01:44Jillian, I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:46Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:48Yes, sir.
01:01:51Jillian, I am sorry.
01:01:54I know I was wrong.
01:01:57Just...
01:01:58Please come back.
01:02:00Jillian!
01:02:01Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:11Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man and you refused
01:02:23to listen.
01:02:26And 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, one day, you live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please.
01:02:43Stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:45Okay, I'll apologize to Julian and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:55The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:03:01Grandpa, don'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, put out a citywide 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, we're not.
01:03:27Understood.
01:03:59Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:06What is this supposed to be?
01:04:07A 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, you 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 have, you know, housed me
01:04:45by now.
01:04:46Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:50Hung up?
01:04:52You're not going to 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.
01:05:03You gotta think twice.
01:05:03But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:13Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait.
01:05:17What are you talking about?
01:05:17Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:19Julian, my uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me
01:05:25permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:27I want you.
01:05:28I love you.
01:05:31Julian, let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:39You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:56Okay.
01:05:59I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No takebacks.
01:06:03No takebacks.
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.
01:06:20It's like you said.
01:06:22If I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:32Then be gentle.
01:06:40Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:45Uh, no, because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember them.
01:06:51You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, you kind of, you kind of remember that for the rest
01:06:56of your life, you know?
01:06:57Details.
01:06:58Those are just tiny details.
01:07:02You look like big details to me.
01:07:04You look like big details to me.
01:07:08Julian, can 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.
01:07:16I 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.
01:07:24And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:26I'll do anything.
01:07:27I'm sorry.
01:07:28I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:43Well, 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.
01:07:52So 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.
01:08:05We are all together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:09If 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.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:40He's with Nora.
01:08:46Nora.
01:08:47Nora Lawson.
01:08:49CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:52You 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.
01:09:12Miss Harper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Harper 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 going to 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?
01:09:39I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:43I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:47And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:51Dad.
01:09:53Grandpa.
01:09:54I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined Harper Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad.
01:10:01You're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:05So maybe you should go talk to him and 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.
01:10:26That was a blessing.
01:10:28But you threw it away.
01:10:33Still, for your sake and for your future, and for our future, we'll fight.
01:10:46Serena, when 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.
01:11:24You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing.
01:11:29They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:34So they're really engaged?
01:11:37Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:40What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:43Mr. 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.
01:12:00Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:12:05If there's an engagement party, that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:14And that means we're done.
01:12:17There's no more chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:25All right, everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:44Julian, are you okay?
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54Oh, it's nothing.
01:12:55Come on, dinner's almost right.
01:13:09Dad, the Harpers.
01:13:13My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:18For a young one,
01:13:20for six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:22it was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown the Harpers more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:43You can't drink this away.
01:13:45Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:48If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me the fuck alone, okay?
01:13:54Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:58I 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.
01:14:09Okay.
01:14:10I will.
01:14:13No.
01:14:20Okay, Nora.
01:14:22Be honest.
01:14:23You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged,
01:14:27and you're getting married next week?
01:14:30Let's see.
01:14:31You'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?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:46They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:50I have to move fast.
01:14:52If 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.
01:15:02Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:04You 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-watering.
01:15:13Then why?
01:15:16Because Serena is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:27No way!
01:15:29I'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
01:15:45and 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
01:16:05because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me.
01:16:08That 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.
01:16:22Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow, they 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.
01:16:56Yes.
01:17:09Wait!
01:17:16Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:19Who is that?
01:17:20Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:22CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:24You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back?
01:17:26To the IPO?
01:17:27And then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:29Without Julian,
01:17:30Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:40Julian,
01:17:41I know you like me.
01:17:43You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise
01:17:45for six months humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:55Just 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?
01:18:12No, please.
01:18:13No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:14I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just...
01:18:16I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times, but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:37Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:39I know you like me.
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.
01:19:01What you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:05You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:09No, that...
01:19:11That's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:16Please, listen.
01:19:16Enough.
01:19:17Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise, do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:23Let me ask you this.
01:19:24If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed, if your value kept climbing,
01:19:29would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34No.
01:19:35No, you wouldn't.
01:19:35You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:37You'd be celebrating.
01:19:38You'd say that you earned the business queen 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.
01:19:54Just 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, you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:13No.
01:20:14No, Julian.
01:20:16That is not true.
01:20:18The night that you saved me from Damien, I...
01:20:23I felt something for you.
01:20:25I did.
01:20:26Stop.
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, all I felt was disgust.
01:20:48But Nora, she 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, she 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 that for you?
01:21:22What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:32Don't, don't, don't, I'm begging you, just please let me explain.
01:21:37Please, please, please, please, please, 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.
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:26Mr. 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, you're all being terminated.
01:22:52Are you watching?
01:22:52What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:56I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:59You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years, wow.
01:23:03Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a soup.
01:23:10You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:13I've seen how you all work.
01:23:17Bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a smile.
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 you.
01:23:37This.
01:23:38This is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:57Thomas 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.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian, what's yours?
01:24:35Julian!
01:24:40Let me go!
01:24:41Fucking let me go!
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:46Go ahead, take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to ride in jail.
01:24:50Fucking coward.
01:24:50You're a fucking coward!
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's wedding.
01:24:54No, no, fight me.
01:24:55101.
01:24:55101, let the guards go!
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts, do you?
01:25:03Hey, Julian.
01:25:04What was that?
01:25:06Just taking out the trash.
01:25:08Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong!
01:25:21Julian, I was wrong!
01:25:23I was wrong with me.
01:25:25I was wrong with me.
01:25:27No.
