00:00:01They can't find a delivery anywhere.
00:00:03The entire Anya Winter-Spring collection
00:00:05is missing hours before the Paris runway show.
00:00:07I can get the courier on the phone.
00:00:09This is a nightmare!
00:00:10Bad news.
00:00:11The delivery truck lost control.
00:00:1530 couture gallons destroyed.
00:00:17We're going to have to cancel the show.
00:00:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:20This is Anya's biggest collection ever, OK?
00:00:24She worked on it for years.
00:00:25And if she comes back and we have nothing to show,
00:00:27we're all dead.
00:00:29What other designer besides Anya
00:00:31can make an entire couture collection in just hours?
00:00:35Don't worry, guys.
00:00:37I can handle it.
00:00:39Didn't she graduate college, like, yesterday?
00:00:41She definitely looks like she just pulled an all-nighter in a library.
00:00:44There's no way some intern who grabs coffee
00:00:46and schedules Anya's lunches can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:49Guys, there's no time to argue.
00:00:51The show is in five hours.
00:00:53What are we going to do?
00:00:55Give me that.
00:01:02And this.
00:01:06What is she doing?
00:01:11She's not even using a pattern.
00:01:13I've never seen someone beat so quickly.
00:01:16Invisible stitching, it's immaculate.
00:01:20There you have it.
00:01:21A gown fit for the Anya winter spring couture collection.
00:01:30This is impossible.
00:01:33I thought you were just some delusional intern, but this dress.
00:01:37Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:40This is going to launch a million dupes, but none of them are going to come close to the real
00:01:45thing.
00:01:45I heard Anya recently hired a fashion school prodigy who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:51Is that you?
00:01:55No, it's doesn't work!
00:01:57Ow!
00:02:03Um, Miss Winter, I'm here to...
00:02:07I'm here for the fall internship.
00:02:08It's Anya.
00:02:11Why would I have time to interview some useless errand-running baby when the fall couture show is in two
00:02:17days and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:19May I?
00:02:21Sure.
00:02:27I'm so sorry that I ripped the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:31Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:35Not everybody knows that.
00:02:37An entire team of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:44Forget about the internship.
00:02:46You are going to be my head designer.
00:02:49There's no time to explain.
00:02:51We need 29 more gowns to make before the show.
00:02:53It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:55Where are we going to find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:02:57Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:02:59And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:02And rip the fringe of the carpet.
00:03:04And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:07And any flowers.
00:03:08Stack!
00:03:11But we're going to destroy this place!
00:03:13Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:16Anya will understand.
00:03:26Holy cow.
00:03:28This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
00:03:31You're a visionary.
00:03:32Now let's kill this fashion show.
00:03:47I'm speechless.
00:03:48I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:51This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:53Dior who?
00:03:54Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:04:07You all head back to the studio.
00:04:08I'll grab some champagne silver.
00:04:12I can't believe Randy completed this entire collection overnight.
00:04:16Where'd she even come from?
00:04:17No clue.
00:04:18But her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:25What the hell is going on here?
00:04:27This is disgusting.
00:04:29Is this a design studio or the girls bathroom of a club?
00:04:33We make ground breaking pieces with our hands.
00:04:35Not our big fat mouths.
00:04:37Jordan, who is this woman?
00:04:38Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:40PR?
00:04:41This woman is the daughter of Anya Winters.
00:04:45Vanessa got her degree from Central Saint Martins in London and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:53And she'll be acting as CEO while Anya recovers from a minor heart attack.
00:04:57Is this really the design team that created the top couture collection in all of Paris Fashion Week?
00:05:02Because all I'm seeing is a bunch of incompetent yappers.
00:05:06If this is about the original collection...
00:05:08I didn't ask you to speak.
00:05:10You're fired.
00:05:12Pack up your bats and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:18Anya Winters is now the top couture collection in the entire world.
00:05:22Time to separate the fashion icons from the frogs.
00:05:26You think my mother is a hard ass?
00:05:28Just you wait.
00:05:29I expect only the most original exciting sketches, lightning fast designs, and perfect technicality.
00:05:38And no unnecessary distractions.
00:05:41Who does she think she is?
00:05:42Miranda Priestly?
00:05:43Oh my god.
00:05:48What is this?
00:05:51Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:57No!
00:05:58That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:04Well, you should have done a better job reinforcing your steam.
00:06:07Jordan, be a doll and go get her a souvenir Eiffel Tower keychain as a thank you for her hard
00:06:14work.
00:06:15Oh yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:21Okay, now please, can somebody show me something? A collection?
00:06:27Congratulations!
00:06:30Who are you?
00:06:32You. You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:37You're fired.
00:06:39Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:41Danny Maxwell.
00:06:43Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:47Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:50She's an intern?
00:06:52So what? You decided that you could take advantage of my mother's showroom to throw a rager the night before
00:06:59the biggest couture show in the history of this house?
00:07:02That's not what we-
00:07:03I would say we could take out the damages from your salary, but you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:09Actually, she's our highest paid employee. She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:14Jordan! That's confidential.
00:07:17So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:19You know, she might be getting old, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:22And what? This is how you spend the money?
00:07:25No, no. Look, the team was up all night working. Our hands are cramping. We're tired, but we saved the
00:07:32spring show.
00:07:33Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:37Celebrate?
00:07:39By destroying a studio? Lying? Talking back to your superiors? Drinking on the job? No wonder my mother had a
00:07:48heart attack.
00:07:49Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities. Unless, of course, you're just as
00:07:55useless as she is. Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:01Jordan and I have been dating for two years. He knows how hard I work. But there's no way he's
00:08:06going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:08Danny's my girlfriend. If I take her side, I'll be committing career suicide.
00:08:12You're right. Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:19Jordan, seriously? What are you still doing here, intern? Pack up your shit and get out of here.
00:08:26If that's how it's going to be.
00:08:27This isn't Danny's fault. She's the one who saved-
00:08:30Oh! Do you want to go with her?
00:08:34If anyone else here helps Danny destroy this studio, please feel free to speak up now.
00:08:40It's okay, guys. Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now. And you've all earned your spots.
00:08:46It was my fault.
00:08:51Then leave it.
00:08:55How could you?
00:09:00Leave back.
00:09:02Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:06Baby!
00:09:07I'm so sorry.
00:09:10We've been together for two years. You couldn't even defend me.
00:09:13She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:17Look, we both know that I don't have a degree.
00:09:20And it's a miracle that you got me this job.
00:09:24And if I lose it, then...
00:09:27Then who's going to pay for all the expensive champagne that we're going to have at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:33Well, you better spring for caviar, too.
00:09:36You owe me big time, Jordan.
00:09:40I promise. I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:43Let's meet tonight at 8.
00:09:45Okay?
00:09:46Let's have a magical last night in Paris.
00:09:49I'll see you then.
00:09:55Hmm.
00:09:57Your frumpy little girlfriend is a recipe for bad press.
00:10:00So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:04Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:06This day's not my...
00:10:07She better not be.
00:10:10Hmm.
00:10:11You're hot, you know.
00:10:14My mother wants to start a menswear line.
00:10:16You could be the PR director.
00:10:19What do you prefer?
00:10:21An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:23Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:28Yes.
00:10:29Say it.
00:10:30Mommy.
00:10:31What else?
00:10:33What else?
00:10:35Does baby need a change?
00:10:37Baby needs a change.
00:10:39Mm-hmm.
00:10:39Yeah, he does.
00:10:40Stinky.
00:10:41Stinky, son.
00:10:43Yes, mother.
00:10:46Mm-hmm.
00:10:49Stupid people.
00:10:51They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:58I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:11:01I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:11:05I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:08Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:11I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:14You better treat her right.
00:11:19Maxwell?
00:11:20Oh, God.
00:11:21Is that the frumpy intern I just fired?
00:11:23Hello?
00:11:23I'm speaking to you.
00:11:25Yes, mother.
00:11:26One second.
00:11:28Is there any other Maxwell on the design team?
00:11:31Oh, no, this is something.
00:11:32Yeah, stop this at some point.
00:11:37She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:40A creative genius!
00:11:41I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't get their
00:11:47hands on her.
00:11:48Without her, this whole house will crumble.
00:11:59Don't worry, mother.
00:12:00I'll treat her like a queen.
00:12:02You better.
00:12:03And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:06What is her name?
00:12:08Anyway, she is a fucking disaster.
00:12:10A brain-dead Nepo Baby intern who never shows up.
00:12:14And when she does, she's useless.
00:12:17Do me a favor.
00:12:19Fire her.
00:12:20Thank God.
00:12:21Of course, that tasteless tornado I fired was just a pointless intern.
00:12:26Don't worry, mother.
00:12:27I already handled it.
00:12:32I'll come check on things the second they discharge me from this hellhole.
00:12:37Rest up, and I'll take care of everything.
00:12:42I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:46Now, where were we?
00:12:53What the hell do you want?
00:12:56The studio phone's been ringing off the hook.
00:12:58Well, who is it?
00:13:00It's Solea's team.
00:13:01Solea?
00:13:02As in the most famous actress in the world?
00:13:04She needs a dress for the Met Gala.
00:13:06She wants to see sketches for five looks inspired by the new collection.
00:13:11In one hour.
00:13:14Oh.
00:13:15Let's hope Maxwell can hold us up.
00:13:19Where is Bryn Maxwell?
00:13:23Jordan, get Bryn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:36What happened?
00:13:37I thought everyone would hate me for causing the crash that destroyed the whole collection.
00:13:41But, guess they've got bigger problems.
00:13:46Danny, the bumpy dumbass.
00:13:48She left her whole sketch portfolio.
00:13:51Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:13:53No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:58I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:04I'm definitely getting fired.
00:14:06Where are you?
00:14:07We need five sketches to send to Solea's team for her Met Gala look ASAP.
00:14:11Miss Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:17Be right there.
00:14:20Why would they ask me, a brand new intern, to dress the most famous woman in the world?
00:14:26Whatever.
00:14:27I'll use Danny's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:30Oh my gosh.
00:14:32I'm gonna be a star.
00:14:34Well, Bryn's handling it.
00:14:37Nice work.
00:14:39Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, so sick.
00:14:43I know.
00:14:44This partnership will take this brand to a whole new level.
00:14:48And as acting CEO of this fashion house, I'll be invited to the best parties with the most rich and
00:14:54famous people.
00:14:56And you can be my Danny.
00:14:58Unless, of course, you want to go with Danny.
00:15:05Where is Jordan? He's 20 minutes late.
00:15:08I don't want her.
00:15:10I was gonna break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:13I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:17Good choice.
00:15:21Guess I'll drag him here myself.
00:15:24Gosh, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:36It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:39I know.
00:15:42She is a fashion superstar, okay? And you're just...
00:15:46An unemployed loser.
00:15:48You spineless dick.
00:15:51You psycho bitch! Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:15:53That's it, you cheating piece of...
00:15:55Danny, Danny, you are embarrassing yourself.
00:15:59I'm the embarrassment?
00:16:00Three hours ago, you were begging for my forgiveness.
00:16:03And now you're shoving your tongue down your new box's throat?
00:16:07You know your place, you tacky, talentless slump.
00:16:12Face it, Danny. You're a fool.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for...
00:16:18Upgrading.
00:16:21I love you, Jordan.
00:16:24And the only reason you're here is because of...
00:16:26Because I told Anya to make you PR manager.
00:16:29Are you kidding me?
00:16:31More ridiculous lies.
00:16:33You? You're a deadbeat intern.
00:16:36As if my mother would have anything to do with you.
00:16:40We...
00:16:42Are...
00:16:44Over...
00:16:44Danny.
00:16:48I'm calling security.
00:16:50Why don't you call your mother instead?
00:16:52The founder of this house.
00:16:54She'll tell you that you're making a huge mistake.
00:16:57You know, enough with the bullshit, Danny. It's cringe.
00:17:00Is this how you got your job here?
00:17:02By spewing insane lies?
00:17:04Hi, security. Yes, there's a delusional ex-employee
00:17:07who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:12Aw, Danny.
00:17:13Don't be sad.
00:17:14Look, I get it.
00:17:16I'm powerful.
00:17:17Smart.
00:17:20Experienced.
00:17:22And you?
00:17:23Well, you're jobless.
00:17:25Talentless.
00:17:26And irrelevant.
00:17:28Look, if I were you,
00:17:29I would go on home and drown your sorrows in a bottle of cheap champagne.
00:17:34Unless, of course, you'd rather spend your last night in Paris in a jail cell.
00:17:37Fine.
00:17:39I'm done here anyway.
00:17:44And where do you think you're going, Danny?
00:17:47Guards!
00:17:48She's over here.
00:17:51Who the hell are you?
00:17:53I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture Collection.
00:17:56Spring.
00:17:57Max.
00:17:58Oh.
00:18:00Wow.
00:18:01Well, I can see why my mother sung your praises.
00:18:05Oh.
00:18:06Is that an archival saloon bag?
00:18:09Well, you obviously have impeccable taste.
00:18:12It's no wonder you created such a groundbreaking collection.
00:18:14These dumbasses don't even know that I'm totally jacking Danny's glory.
00:18:18Who cares?
00:18:19As long as Anya's daughter thinks I'm a genius,
00:18:22I'll get promoted to creative director without lifting a finger.
00:18:26Vanessa.
00:18:26Anna who's responsible for destroying Anya's first Spring Collection.
00:18:32She's the one that made the routing error that caused the truck to crash.
00:18:35She's obviously trying to sabotage the brand.
00:18:38What?
00:18:46Danny's done it again.
00:18:48You know that one design school prodigy you've had your eye on?
00:18:51Danny Maxwell?
00:18:52She was just fired from Anya Winter's Fashion House.
00:18:55The show's a hit. How is that possible?
00:18:57Apparently, Anya's daughter Vanessa forced her out.
00:19:00Of course.
00:19:02I would love to see the look on Anya Winter's face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo of a
00:19:06daughter fired her star designer.
00:19:09Call Danny up. Let's get her here.
00:19:11But Anya Winter's is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:14We're not even ranked top ten.
00:19:15Dior and Chanel are probably banging down Danny's door already.
00:19:18You really think she would work for us?
00:19:20I'll do anything to get Danny on this team.
00:19:22Rumor has it that Leia's looking for a new designer for her Met Gelo look.
00:19:26And if we can dress the most famous woman on the planet on the biggest night in fashion,
00:19:31we'll be the new brand on top.
00:19:34Get the jet ready. I'm going to Paris.
00:19:37And I'm not leaving.
00:19:39Without Danny Maxwell.
00:19:43Sabotage? Are you kidding me?
00:19:44You can take the fall from my stupid mistake, Danny.
00:19:48Who will believe you over me?
00:19:50You were out partying all night when you should have been confirming the route with the courier.
00:19:53And you destroyed my mother's studio on your drunken bender.
00:19:56You all see me as some incompetent intern just because I'm not wearing the latest off-the-runway clothes.
00:20:01Maybe daddy's black card can buy you Celine, but can it buy you talent too?
00:20:06You think I caused that disaster? You think she is your savior?
00:20:11Well then best of luck when Anya comes back and sees what a mess you've made.
00:20:15This is your mess, Danny Maxwell.
00:20:18I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate yes.
00:20:22Don't touch me.
00:20:24Jordan, don't let them do this.
00:20:26We both know you're not capable of handling the outcome.
00:20:28First you threaten Brynn, and then you threaten me.
00:20:32You know, you shouldn't be such a bitter bitch, Danny.
00:20:36You know, jealousy looks hideous on you.
00:20:39So why don't you go ahead and pick up your mistakes and get the fuck out before you get locked
00:20:45up.
00:20:45What can they even arrest me for?
00:20:47Let's see, vandalism, insubordination, and that sweater is definitely a crime against fashion.
00:20:53Don't you know that I can end your entire fashion career with one phone call to my mother?
00:20:58Then go ahead.
00:21:00Do it.
00:21:04If Vanessa calls Anya, she'll find out that Danny's the real star designer.
00:21:09Vanessa, your mom's in recovery.
00:21:12Shouldn't you go to the fashion council first instead?
00:21:14To make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Danny's terrible taste?
00:21:19Brynn's right. You should go right to the source.
00:21:21Do not let her get away with this.
00:21:24I have all my mother's industry contacts at my fingertips.
00:21:28I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:30Danny Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter.
00:21:34Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:39No other fashion house will want, you know.
00:21:41Good luck getting a part-time job at Forever 21.
00:21:44Guess that's that then.
00:21:46But before I go, I have one question for you, Vanessa.
00:21:50Does Anya, the CEO and creator of this fashion house know that you fired me?
00:21:56What kind of idiot do you think I am, Danny?
00:21:59My mother practically begged me to fire your incompetent ass.
00:22:02You thought you could roll up here in your bargain bin sweater and call yourself a fashion icon?
00:22:09Your career is so awful.
00:22:11Hey, security, can you take her away and throw her to something? Jail, cell, police, whatever.
00:22:17Get your hands off of her.
00:22:22That is my new creative director.
00:22:25Danny Maxwell will join Claude Saint-Jean Fashion House.
00:22:30Claude Saint-Jean of Saint-Jean Couture?
00:22:32You came all the way from New York for me.
00:22:34Of course.
00:22:36I flew straight here.
00:22:40Nice to see you again, Danny.
00:22:42I haven't seen you since I interned at Valentino my freshman year.
00:22:45Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:50How'd you get that job, Danny?
00:22:52Did you scam your way into that one too?
00:22:55God, Danny.
00:22:57We went out and I had no idea that you were such a grifter.
00:23:02I feel so...
00:23:03so used.
00:23:05So this is how Anya Winter treats their most talented designers.
00:23:08You know, I can't say I'm surprised with someone like you working here.
00:23:11Claude, I...
00:23:12That is Mr. Saint-Jean to you.
00:23:14And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:18Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:20You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:22Mr. Saint-Jean, Danny here has done irreparable damage and...
00:23:26Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:28Obviously I.
00:23:29I'm right, I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:31Enough!
00:23:32This idiot destroyed my mother's collection,
00:23:35wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio,
00:23:38ruined the entire couture show,
00:23:40almost lost us millions.
00:23:41And why are we still talking about her?
00:23:43Did you not ask your mother who Danny was before you fired her?
00:23:49What kind of idiot do you think I am?
00:23:53My mother runs this fashion house with an iron fist.
00:23:56Of course I consulted her and you know what she said?
00:23:59She said that this idiot Danny is a Nepo baby intern who scammed her way into the job.
00:24:05Brain dead.
00:24:07Anya actually said this.
00:24:09And a useless disaster.
00:24:10She quite literally said to me,
00:24:12do me a favor and fire this bitch.
00:24:15Anya practically begged me to work for her.
00:24:18She wouldn't walk back on a decision like that.
00:24:20Okay, we all know Anya, okay?
00:24:22And she wouldn't beg anyone for anything.
00:24:25Especially to work with a deadweight intern.
00:24:27Then why are you still here?
00:24:29What you little-
00:24:30Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:33Danny.
00:24:35Will you come with me and be my new creative director of Saint John Couture?
00:24:38God, I-
00:24:39Hey, whatever you are making, I will double it.
00:24:41Okay, her salary is 500k.
00:24:43She's literally robbing us blinds.
00:24:46A millionaire is that?
00:24:51Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:53Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top 10.
00:24:56Are you clinically insane?
00:24:58You're an even bigger bullshitter than Danny.
00:25:02A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:06Way to dig your own grave.
00:25:08I thought I told you to shut up.
00:25:11Claude, I really appreciate what you're trying to do.
00:25:14Seriously, but it's not about the money.
00:25:17Danny, if you join my fashion house,
00:25:20the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:22Creative control over the next season's couture collection will be yours.
00:25:25My designers, my studio, my full trust.
00:25:30And hell, if you want me, I'm even yours too.
00:25:35Oh, Claude.
00:25:37Okay, look, I get it.
00:25:38You hustled from the bottom to build your own fashion brand,
00:25:42and I respect you for that.
00:25:43So let me remind you that Danny is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:48Even my mother says hiring her is a literal death wish.
00:25:52In that case...
00:25:58Okay.
00:26:00What is all this shit?
00:26:01This shit is everything that your mother gifted me.
00:26:04Her one and only key to her personal studio,
00:26:07the business black card in my name,
00:26:08which I could have used to repair the damages,
00:26:10but I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:14You can tell Anya that I, Danny Maxwell,
00:26:17am more than happy to walk away from this fashion house
00:26:20and never, ever come back.
00:26:23Aww.
00:26:25So sad for us.
00:26:27Not.
00:26:28You did not deserve any special treatment, Danny.
00:26:31I mean, just look at you.
00:26:32Your complete fashion flop.
00:26:35You know, you are all so wrapped up in beauty standards and bullshit
00:26:38that you can't even see the design talent that is right in front of you.
00:26:43Danny, it is true.
00:26:45We have been struggling to beat out Anya Winter for the number one title spot.
00:26:48Then I'm gonna change that.
00:26:50I'll join as creative director.
00:26:53And by this time, next season's runway show,
00:26:57Saint Jean Couture will be number one.
00:27:02You know, I almost feel embarrassed for you, Danny.
00:27:05Losing your spot at the number one fashion house
00:27:08to go and work for this desperate up-and-comer.
00:27:13Although, who else would hire you?
00:27:16Embarrassed. For her.
00:27:17You know Vanessa's gonna burn this place to the ground
00:27:19and you are gonna be left for this PR shitstorm to clean up.
00:27:23And something tells me you're not qualified for that, are you?
00:27:27Qualified? And what exactly are you qualified for?
00:27:30Propositioning idiotic interns
00:27:32to go out and peddle out your hideous designs
00:27:35to some micro-influencers?
00:27:38What?
00:27:43I did.
00:27:46She did.
00:27:49She will.
00:27:51Who is that?
00:27:52That was Solea's team.
00:27:55They've asked for five sketches from Danny for her Met Gala look.
00:27:58What was that about micro-influencers?
00:28:01If I'm not mistaken, she has more followers than anyone in the world?
00:28:07Absolutely not Brynn is supposed to design Solea's gown.
00:28:10Brynn?
00:28:13Guess we got ourselves some competition.
00:28:15This isn't a competition.
00:28:16It's an all-out fashion war.
00:28:19Well, I hope you're ready to die on the battlefield.
00:28:21Let's go, Danny.
00:28:22Gladly.
00:28:23I'm losing brain cells talking to these people.
00:28:27May the best designer win.
00:28:31Don't worry about her, Vanessa.
00:28:33Just send these to Solea's teams, and there's no way she won't pick us.
00:28:39I'll be Danny with her own designs.
00:28:42Oh my god, Brynn, these are incredible.
00:28:45Between these and the spring couture collection, you've really proven yourself.
00:28:51I'm officially naming you as creative director of Ani Winter Couture.
00:28:56This is a dream come true.
00:29:00Mm-hmm.
00:29:01And don't forget about me in the face of the menswear line.
00:29:08Great.
00:29:09One step at a time.
00:29:11Stick with me and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:16Every designer will be gunning for our spot as top couture collection in the world.
00:29:21That's why we need to dress Solea at the Met Gala.
00:29:25And no one can touch us.
00:29:27Not even Claude and that hack Danny.
00:29:30I won't let you down, Vanessa.
00:29:31Now, walk me through how you designed the couture collection in four hours.
00:29:36How did I do it?
00:29:40Oh god, I can't design for crap.
00:29:43I have no idea how Danny pulled that off.
00:29:45What the hell am I going to tell her?
00:29:48I used a highly specialized sewing technique that I learned in my final year of fashion school.
00:29:55The details are really boring. I could show you later.
00:29:59Of course.
00:29:59You have your own technique. You are the creative genius.
00:30:03I mean, these are already Met Gala worthy.
00:30:05If you can bring them to life half as well as you did the spring collection, you have nothing to
00:30:09worry about.
00:30:10Nothing at all.
00:30:12I am now the creative director of the number one fashion house in the world.
00:30:17Step aside, Danny. I'm the new couture queen now.
00:30:24What do you want?
00:30:26Anya, it's Claude Saint-Jean. Listen, I'm just calling to let you know that we are officially in the running
00:30:31to dress a Leia at her Met Gala.
00:30:34What?
00:30:35We are the number one couture house in the world right now.
00:30:40Why would she want you to dress her as if some young, arrogant, dumbass could-
00:30:44Listen, I'm not calling to discuss this. I'm just simply letting you know.
00:30:51Cheers.
00:30:53What the hell is that rat up to? He knows I have a design prodigy at my right hand.
00:31:01Why would he think anybody could beat a superstar like Danny?
00:31:11Unless...
00:31:13Mother, you'll never believe the sketches I got from...
00:31:16Tell me you didn't fire my most talented designer!
00:31:22Calm down, Mother, or else you'll have another heart attack.
00:31:26Like I told you already, I fired that brain-dead slacker intern.
00:31:30Why the hell is Claude Saint-Jean competing with us for the Met Gala partnership?
00:31:36Well, I just figured it was pointless to talk him out of it when he's obviously gonna crash and burn
00:31:41along with that talentless intern.
00:31:43They'll design something cheap and tacky for Saleya.
00:31:47And then she'll tell everybody she knows not to touch Saint-Jean couture with a ten-foot pole.
00:31:53And then their sad little fashion careers.
00:31:56They'll be over it before they even started.
00:31:58So you gaslit Claude into hiring our cast-off?
00:32:04Sure did.
00:32:05He's convinced that the talentless Nepo Baby is the creative genius behind our spring line.
00:32:10That's brilliant.
00:32:13And I thought you're a weak little pushover like your father, but...
00:32:17Maybe you're more like me than I knew.
00:32:20Vanessa, I want you to take full control over the Met Gala partnership with Saleya.
00:32:26Oh, thank you.
00:32:28No more talking.
00:32:30It's time to get to work and we need to make damn sure Saleya picks our gown for the Gala.
00:32:35We are going to make Claude St. John the laughing stock of the fashion industry.
00:32:44Everyone's buzzing about this Met Gala partnership.
00:32:47Vanessa's never run a fashion house before.
00:32:50Are you sure she can handle this?
00:32:51Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:54My daughter can't fuck this up.
00:32:56Not with Danny Maxwell designing the gown for Saleya.
00:33:00Did I tell you that she actually convinced Claude St. John to hire our strung out sad sack of an
00:33:08intern?
00:33:09I get to sit back and watch Danny work her magic for Saleya's gown while that hack of a talent
00:33:18completely tanks what's left of Claude's fashion house.
00:33:31So, how does our studio compare to the great Anya Winters?
00:33:37It's insane what you've accomplished.
00:33:40I mean, four years ago you were a glorified errand boy at Valentino and now look at you.
00:33:44Your own couture line.
00:33:47It's everything you ever wanted.
00:33:49Not everything.
00:33:53Well, what about you Danny?
00:33:54I mean, when I met you you were a quiet little intern and now you're a fashion genius?
00:33:59Nah, I'm serious. I mean, that work you did on that spring collection, it was...
00:34:03It was inspiring.
00:34:11Yes.
00:34:14Of course.
00:34:17You'll be there.
00:34:19So Leah loved your MacGala sketches, huh?
00:34:22She chose her favorite from you and Brayden and she wants you both to show her a sample.
00:34:26Oh my god, when?
00:34:30Tomorrow afternoon?
00:34:31You have 24 hours to make this dress for Saleya. Better get started.
00:34:36I mean, we just got back from New York and I...
00:34:38You created an entire couture collection in what?
00:34:41Four hours?
00:34:43This should be a breeze, right?
00:34:44Right. I can totally pull this off.
00:34:47Then do it.
00:34:49Now!
00:34:49No!
00:34:52You think you can pull off creating a MacGala gown for a triple A-list celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:57Who do you think you're talking to?
00:34:58Well, whatever it is.
00:35:00It just needs to be better than this.
00:35:02This is our competition.
00:35:04That's my sketch!
00:35:08That fraud print's been stealing my designs.
00:35:14Of course.
00:35:15She has no real talent of her own.
00:35:21Damn.
00:35:22That dress is insane.
00:35:25A skirt made of stained glass?
00:35:28Insane is right.
00:35:29It's gonna be nearly impossible to sew a bodice that could support the weight of the skirt.
00:35:33If Saleya puts on this gown, it's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:35:37Prima wants to be a fashion icon so bad.
00:35:41How will she pull us off?
00:35:43Then it's an easy win, right?
00:35:45Or just sit back and let the thieves crash and burn?
00:35:47Not exactly.
00:35:50I'm gonna make the same exact dress, only better.
00:35:54Then there'll be no question who the real designer is.
00:35:57But I thought you said it was impossible to pull off.
00:36:01I said nearly impossible.
00:36:07Bryn can try to rip off my designs all she wants.
00:36:11But without the brains or skills to back it up, there's no way she's gonna pull it off.
00:36:16And if she tries, that gown is gonna fall apart faster than you can say fashion victim.
00:36:24Let's remember this day.
00:36:26The last day that Claude Sejon Couture will be at the bottom of the fashion food chase.
00:36:33By this time tomorrow, we'll be the new Roars of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:41What the hell is this?
00:36:43Why can't you guys attach the top of the dress to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:47Oh, my God.
00:36:48Bryn, the skirt is too heavy.
00:36:50No excuses!
00:36:51We have four hours to make a dress for Soleil.
00:37:01Gosh, I wish I was getting trash out of club right now.
00:37:04Bryn!
00:37:05How's everything going?
00:37:06Great!
00:37:07I just dropped my scissors.
00:37:09We're putting on the finishing touches.
00:37:12Phone call.
00:37:14I need an update on the Met Gala.
00:37:16Now!
00:37:17Don't worry, Mother.
00:37:18I have everything under control.
00:37:20That clown Claude and that fraud designer are going down.
00:37:25You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:27Your mother raised an amazing woman.
00:37:32Keep it up.
00:37:33There might be another promotion in your future.
00:37:40If I can pull this off, I'll go down in fashion history.
00:37:44Who's the brain-dead Nepo baby now?
00:38:01I'll go down!
00:38:02I'll go down in fashion.
00:38:02Danny, Danny.
00:38:05Look up.
00:38:06Oh, my God!
00:38:08Oh, dear hag.
00:38:10Oh, dear.
00:38:11This is so boring to me, Oh, dear james,
00:38:13Oh, dear, Anna.
00:38:13Oh, dear.
00:38:30Good morning, superstar.
00:38:43This is it.
00:38:45The gal that can make or break me.
00:38:54You should be proud, Danny.
00:38:58It's exceptional.
00:39:00Just like you.
00:39:02Thanks, I...
00:39:05I couldn't have done it without you.
00:39:13Oh, God.
00:39:14I need to change what I'm wearing to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:17Don't worry about it.
00:39:19I had my editor friend Marco pull some things from the Vogue closet for you.
00:39:24Pick anything you like.
00:39:32See you at the meeting.
00:39:42Gosh, this is a freaking disaster.
00:39:45What am I going to do?
00:39:47Brynn!
00:39:53That better be the best stress you've ever made.
00:39:57Let's go.
00:40:02Ready to retire early, Claude?
00:40:04We're going to get that Met Gala partnership.
00:40:06In your dreams, Vanessa.
00:40:08Where's your top secret weapon?
00:40:10She'll be here soon.
00:40:11She'll make a big impression on Solea.
00:40:14Did she bother to iron out the lumps in today's big baggy sweater?
00:40:18I'm sure the most fashionable woman in the world will absolutely love her Walmart chic style.
00:40:23Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:25Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:31I just have to find a way to switch mine and Danny's garment bags when no one's looking.
00:40:35It's not like Solea would even trust that unstylish little piece of...
00:40:51Danny, you look stunning.
00:40:52Thanks.
00:40:56Speechless.
00:40:57Is that a purse?
00:40:59Are those that...
00:41:00One-of-a-kind Anya Winterfall couture books?
00:41:03Yes, I am.
00:41:05Okay, but why would my mother give you those?
00:41:08She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:09They were a gift for designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:13What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:16Look, I always knew you were a lazy, deadbeat intern,
00:41:19but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:22That's a whole new loan.
00:41:24Taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:27Friend, I know a thing or two about that.
00:41:30Watch, he is...
00:41:31Careful now.
00:41:32You think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:36This?
00:41:37Give me that.
00:41:38This?
00:41:39It's what the work of a genuine fashion superstar looks like.
00:41:43If Vanessa opens the bag, everyone's going to see that I'm a total fraud.
00:41:50Solea will see you now.
00:41:52Designers only.
00:41:53For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:59Hey.
00:42:01You've got this.
00:42:02There's no way she's not going to pick you.
00:42:08Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership.
00:42:11Don't fuck it up.
00:42:13I won't let you down.
00:42:17Solea is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes.
00:42:19You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:22Just don't touch anything.
00:42:27You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:33I don't know.
00:42:35I don't know.
00:42:36I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:38I don't know.
00:42:44I don't know.
00:42:52I don't know.
00:42:54Designed is beautiful, but very, very complicated.
00:43:00How did you manage to pull that off?
00:43:02We'll just see.
00:43:04Won't we?
00:43:05Yes, we will.
00:43:15Oh, my gown is hideous.
00:43:17If I don't do something fast, everyone's going to find out that I'm a total fraud.
00:43:36I've just gotten a taste of fashion fame, and I'm not letting Danny that disaster take
00:43:41it from me.
00:43:53Bye-bye, Danny.
00:43:56Solea's arriving now.
00:43:57No photos, no sucking up, and no touching.
00:44:00Unless she touches you.
00:44:02Got it?
00:44:02Got it.
00:44:12Solea, this is Brynn Maxwell.
00:44:14It's so nice to meet you.
00:44:16Where's the other one?
00:44:17She must be running a little bit late.
00:44:19I hate people who waste my time.
00:44:21I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:25Let's see it then.
00:44:28Ugh!
00:44:30Ugh!
00:44:32Ugh!
00:44:38And...uh...
00:44:44Brynn
00:44:45knocked me out and stole my dress.
00:44:48I knew she was a snake, but I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:54The sample preview is starting now, and I have nothing to show.
00:45:04Or maybe I did.
00:45:10I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:16Sorry, fam.
00:45:17It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:19This is, like, the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:24I feel connected to it on, like, a cosmic level.
00:45:27I must wear this dress.
00:45:28I knew you would love it.
00:45:30But what about the other designer?
00:45:32She might.
00:45:33She's late.
00:45:34I'll give her three seconds.
00:45:35If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:38Three, two, one.
00:45:40Wait!
00:45:42I'm so sorry I'm late, Soleil.
00:45:44I had a little bump.
00:45:47In the book.
00:45:49I suppose I can forgive you.
00:45:50Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:54Nice gown, Brynn.
00:45:55I wish I could say the same, Dani, but...
00:45:59You are stinks.
00:46:01Gee, I wonder why that is.
00:46:04This dress is so trippy.
00:46:07My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:11Nope.
00:46:11Okay, but you're not, like, crying.
00:46:13I mean, like, mine is still better.
00:46:16Right?
00:46:18I wouldn't say that.
00:46:20What?
00:46:22Isn't that crazy?
00:46:23That you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me and Soleil still likes my design better?
00:46:30How much longer can you keep up this shriek?
00:46:33I must know.
00:46:35What was your inspiration?
00:46:37I was inspired by those times when someone just tries to knock you out and you get the trash and
00:46:46make a treasure.
00:46:47Like, the phoenix rises from the ashes again.
00:46:51Or like a rat from a dumpster.
00:46:54I've always felt spiritually connected to the phoenix.
00:46:58Dani, I feel like you really get me.
00:47:01You're a true artist with a true vision.
00:47:03Okay, well, what about my vision?
00:47:05What about my art?
00:47:08Brynn's right.
00:47:10She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:14Brynn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:22Crap.
00:47:23I have no idea how Dani made this.
00:47:26What do I say?
00:47:28How did I do it?
00:47:30You're not gatekeeping your creative process from Soleil, are you?
00:47:37If you want her to wear your gown at the Met Gala, doesn't she deserve to know how you made
00:47:44it?
00:47:45It's true. Soleil doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:49It's a simple question, Brynn.
00:47:51If you can't answer it, then, like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:56I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:48:02Clearly she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:06Okay, this taped-together thing is not fashion, okay?
00:48:10It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:13Soleil, you cannot wear Dani's dress.
00:48:16I mean, look at it.
00:48:16It's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:48:20Besides, it's made out of New York Street trash.
00:48:25She's right.
00:48:26It does kind of have, like, a fishy smell to it.
00:48:29It's giving, and I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:33Well, obviously this is just a sample.
00:48:35The real dress would not be-
00:48:36Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:39I mean, Soleil, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway.
00:48:43But, Dani's?
00:48:45Dani's is probably made out of disease, rat feces, and meat juice.
00:48:52Oh, God.
00:48:54You know I'm a diehard vegan.
00:48:57I've made my decision.
00:48:59The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:49:04Brin's.
00:49:07I can't wear street trash to the Met Gala.
00:49:10It's too big of a risk, even for me.
00:49:13Oh, I'm sorry, Dani.
00:49:15But it's easier to go back to trash when...
00:49:18You are trash.
00:49:21But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:25Brin, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:28Like, like, right now?
00:49:31You made this dress in 24 hours.
00:49:33Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:35Once Soleil sees Brin for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:41Yeah.
00:49:42Brin, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do?
00:49:46Now.
00:49:54I really work better alone.
00:49:56Not today you don't.
00:49:58Do you want me to wear your dress to the Met Gala or not?
00:50:00This is it.
00:50:02This is it.
00:50:04The moment everyone sees that I'm a total fraud.
00:50:08The moment my talents will finally be recognized.
00:50:13Saleya, Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine, is here to see you.
00:50:17Oh my god, and she's the chair of the Met Gala board.
00:50:20She must have heard I'm picking my dress today.
00:50:22Maybe they're going to do a feature.
00:50:24Oh my god, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:31Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:33Miss Summer had to take a call in the car and set me up instead.
00:50:37I'm her personal assistant, here to deliver a message.
00:50:41On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders,
00:50:46Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:54Banned?
00:50:55What the hell for?
00:50:57Insubordination, sabotage amounting to millions of dollars and potential losses, a general lack of personal style.
00:51:06Those aren't just faceless lies.
00:51:09I think we all know who the real liar is here, Danny.
00:51:13How dare you come into Saleya's personal studio, waste her precious time knowing you are hated by literally everyone in
00:51:20the fashion industry.
00:51:21Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:24This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:28This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:31Get her out of here.
00:51:32Now.
00:51:37Congratulations.
00:51:38I can't wait to wear your gown to the Met Gala.
00:51:41And I can't wait to steal all of Danny's glory.
00:51:47Hey, Danny, what the hell?
00:51:49Hey, get your hands off of me right now.
00:51:53You okay?
00:51:56Okay, I'd stay back if I were you.
00:51:58Unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life, too.
00:52:01Banned?
00:52:02By who?
00:52:03Hannah Summer herself.
00:52:06The editor-in-chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:11This is the best day of my life.
00:52:14Mine, too.
00:52:15Vanessa, I bow to you.
00:52:18Okay.
00:52:20I am the real hero here.
00:52:22I mean, Saleya's wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:26And Danny here is going to go get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:29The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:32I've given everything for this fashion house.
00:52:35And how do you repay me?
00:52:37By turning everyone in the industry against me?
00:52:41Not everyone.
00:52:44Let's go, Danny.
00:52:52I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:58If I believe it, we'll get our latest post.
00:53:01Can't wait to reveal my hashtag Met Gala look tomorrow.
00:53:04I'll be giving the designer a very special shout-out on stage after my exclusive performance.
00:53:12Like, that's my dress.
00:53:13This should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:16Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this.
00:53:18They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:22They're everything that you're not.
00:53:25You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:28And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:32I know what I have to do.
00:53:37I'm going to sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:41Hell yes, you are.
00:53:43I'm sneaking into the Met Gala tomorrow.
00:53:45I have work to do.
00:53:46Hey, hey, hey.
00:53:48Let me handle that.
00:53:49Now, let's drink.
00:53:51Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:56Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:53:58Mm-hmm.
00:54:00But it will.
00:54:05You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:09Didn't they used to call you...
00:54:10One Cup Club?
00:54:12Oh.
00:54:14You're tall, but you're quite the length.
00:54:17I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:19And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:38Whoa.
00:54:40You were lightweight.
00:54:42Speak for yourself.
00:54:46Wow.
00:54:46Let's get to the bed.
00:54:48I used to watch the champagne.
00:54:50Seriously, I'm not kidding.
00:54:55Wow.
00:54:56Oh, Lord.
00:54:57Oh, so...
00:54:58I suddenly feel very sober.
00:55:06Me too.
00:55:31What do you think?
00:55:32I think the stitching's immaculate.
00:55:35But what's it for?
00:55:37This.
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40This is your party crashing uniform.
00:55:43Marco's gonna meet you on the side entrance of the gala.
00:55:47I owe you both my legs.
00:55:49Hmm.
00:55:50I just want to make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:59I'll meet you there.
00:56:00Where are you going?
00:56:02I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:56:06When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house and sent a fraud to the
00:56:10biggest event in fashion history,
00:56:12it's gonna be over for her and Britain.
00:56:14Thank you for everything.
00:56:22I'll meet you there.
00:56:30Good luck.
00:56:41We're here at fashion's biggest night, the Met Gala,
00:56:46where everyone who is anyone has gathered in New York City to celebrate the best of fashion.
00:56:54And, oh my god, Solea!
00:56:58Darling, how are you?
00:56:59Oh my god, I am freaking out right now.
00:57:02I mean, this gown!
00:57:05Oh, anyway, best dress of the night, hands down.
00:57:11Now tell me, who made this incredible creation?
00:57:14I'm actually not revealing who made it yet,
00:57:16but it'll be a big surprise for everyone inside.
00:57:19Cryptid.
00:57:20I love it.
00:57:21Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:27You know, that spring collection that you did was just like,
00:57:30whoa, you know?
00:57:33Yeah, I'm kind of like...
00:57:37a genius.
00:57:44Bryn got me banned from the Met Gala,
00:57:46but I made it in.
00:57:47And soon she'll be exposed for the fraud she is.
00:57:51How did that slut get in here?
00:57:53She's going to ruin everything.
00:57:57Champagne Bryn?
00:57:59You cannot be here.
00:58:01You competed against me to dress Solea,
00:58:04the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala,
00:58:06and you lost.
00:58:07Okay.
00:58:08Tonight is my special night,
00:58:09and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:12I'm the one who designed Solea's dress.
00:58:14I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:16After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown,
00:58:20she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:23Bryn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:27I do not have to answer...
00:58:30Face it, Dani.
00:58:31I have won the respect of everyone who matters in the fashion industry.
00:58:36I'm going to be up there next to Solea on that stage,
00:58:39basking in all your glory.
00:58:41And you?
00:58:42You will still be...
00:58:44a no-one.
00:58:46You come in here dressed up like a servant,
00:58:48expecting me to do what?
00:58:50Fall out your feet and go,
00:58:51Oh, I'm so sorry, Dani.
00:58:52You are so smart and so talented.
00:58:56Never gonna happen.
00:58:58I am rubbing elbows with the hottest,
00:59:00most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:59:03I am wearing the gown of the Mechella,
00:59:05and you can't touch me now.
00:59:09And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:15Certainly not you, if that's what you're implying.
00:59:20Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:24Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:32You think Brynn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:37Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:39Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:43And what have you done to prove yourself?
00:59:44Sneak into the Mechella dressed as the help?
00:59:49You know, the servant suit really fits you, Dani.
00:59:52I think you, uh, found your true calling.
00:59:55Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself
00:59:57that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
01:00:00You know, we dated for two years,
01:00:02and I never asked you for a thing.
01:00:04But the minute Vanessa offers you 15 minutes of fame,
01:00:08you drop me without a thought.
01:00:11What will you do once she's used you up
01:00:13and left you in the dust?
01:00:15You have no idea what you're talking about.
01:00:21Yeah.
01:00:22Jealousy is a disease, Dani.
01:00:25Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded
01:00:28doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:31You literally got banned for being a talentless scammer.
01:00:35Are you really so desperate to steal my glory
01:00:37that you'd crash the biggest night in fashion?
01:00:41You must be psychotic.
01:00:43Really?
01:00:44And what's the word for stealing another designer's work
01:00:47and using it for clout?
01:00:55Claude.
01:00:58Did you come here to fall at my feet
01:01:01and beg me for a job
01:01:03now that my fashion house
01:01:04officially has the Met Gala partnership
01:01:07and yours?
01:01:09Yours is dead in the water.
01:01:12I'll bet you regret hiring
01:01:13that sneaky little weasel now, don't you?
01:01:16Not as much as you're going to regret
01:01:17putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:19Excuse me?
01:01:22Look.
01:01:25I know you and I haven't always seen
01:01:28eye to eye.
01:01:29Hmm.
01:01:31But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:35There's something you should see.
01:01:37See?
01:01:40See?
01:01:41Bitch!
01:01:42My star designer worked her fingers to the bone
01:01:45to make that dress for Salaya.
01:01:47Don't you dare try to take credit
01:01:49for her creative genius.
01:01:53Hmm.
01:01:54Very soft.
01:01:55But if she worked her fingers to the bone,
01:01:57then where the count says.
01:01:58Ah!
01:01:59How dare you assault me.
01:02:01Leave.
01:02:02Now.
01:02:04Or what?
01:02:05So entitled.
01:02:07You know, you should be grateful to my mother
01:02:09for even allowing you to step foot
01:02:11into her historic couture house.
01:02:13I never said I wasn't.
01:02:15Your mother is one of the best designers
01:02:17in the world,
01:02:18and she took a chance on me.
01:02:20I've always been grateful to her.
01:02:23Grateful?
01:02:24You've tarnished her name and reputation,
01:02:26and now you're trying to sabotage
01:02:27the biggest night in the history
01:02:29of this fashion house.
01:02:30Just like you tried to sabotage
01:02:31the spring couture show!
01:02:38I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:40Enough!
01:02:49God, you are so embarrassing, Danny.
01:02:52You know, breaking up with you
01:02:53was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:56You did need the favor, really.
01:02:59Thank you so much for saving me
01:03:01from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:03:04Disappointment?
01:03:05If we're talking disappointment,
01:03:07I think it's you,
01:03:07because you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:13Oh, my God.
01:03:14Is there security around here?
01:03:16This disturbed employee
01:03:18is trying to ruin my couture!
01:03:20And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:23So Leia is about to announce Brynn
01:03:25as the designer of her gown,
01:03:27and you will not ruin this moment!
01:03:33Get your hands off.
01:03:39Vanessa, what the hell have you done
01:03:41with my fashion house?
01:03:46Nothing, Mom.
01:03:47I fired Danny just like you asked.
01:03:49You what?
01:03:51Ah!
01:03:57I don't understand.
01:03:58It's a mistake.
01:03:58A mistake?
01:04:00A mistake?
01:04:02I...
01:04:02Oh!
01:04:04Oh, my God, Mom.
01:04:05Are you okay?
01:04:07I...
01:04:07I just need a minute.
01:04:09Okay.
01:04:12Anya, are you okay?
01:04:14Oh, Danny.
01:04:15I'm fine.
01:04:17There's something I need to say.
01:04:19I can't let that old slut blow my cover.
01:04:23No.
01:04:24She shouldn't speak.
01:04:25She could have another heart attack.
01:04:28Security, get her out of here.
01:04:31I'm okay.
01:04:32I'm fine.
01:04:33Don't touch her.
01:04:34You're making it worse.
01:04:35Don't listen to anything
01:04:36this worthless server has to say.
01:04:38Take my mother somewhere quiet.
01:04:40I'm fine.
01:04:42I'll be right there.
01:04:44Danny!
01:04:45Hey, I said hands off.
01:04:47Unless you want to be cut it off, please.
01:04:50What the hell was that about?
01:04:55I know you've all been anxiously awaiting
01:04:58the reveal of the designer
01:04:59I've chosen to partner with.
01:05:03Bryn Maxwell,
01:05:04will you join me on stage?
01:05:07Oh, my God.
01:05:09She had a porto malfunction.
01:05:12Brick!
01:05:13Fuck, Brick!
01:05:13Come on!
01:05:15What the fuck happened?
01:05:16I told you not to fuck it up.
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:18I...
01:05:20What are you looking at me for?
01:05:22You're the designer of the dress.
01:05:25She wants to be a star designer, so that...
01:05:27Let's see if she has the skills to throw it off.
01:05:30Someone needs to fix this!
01:05:32Now!
01:05:34Danny, Danny.
01:05:35If that dress splits anymore,
01:05:37this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:38I know you can do it.
01:05:40So, please, go ahead and fix the dress.
01:05:43Why would I be able to help?
01:05:46I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:50Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:54Danny is a Nepo baby intern who knows nothing.
01:05:57And Bryn is the creative genius.
01:06:00Remember?
01:06:01Yes.
01:06:02Right?
01:06:02Right.
01:06:03I...
01:06:04I totally know what I'm doing.
01:06:07Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress-up.
01:06:16Thanks, Danny.
01:06:17I knew you were useless.
01:06:19Thank God brings here.
01:06:21I can do this.
01:06:23How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:28I put my heart and soul into a dress.
01:06:31Soleil will be proud to wear it to that gala.
01:06:33And you built your couture house from the ground up
01:06:36and made so many sucker places to hire me.
01:06:40I can't let Bryn ruin it all.
01:06:43I have to show Soleil what I can do.
01:06:46So go show them who you are.
01:06:49Crude to slay that you are the genius behind the dress.
01:06:58Bryn.
01:06:59The seams are delicate.
01:07:00The stitch has to be.
01:07:01Shut up!
01:07:02You're ruining her concentration.
01:07:04Um, weren't you the girl who was, like,
01:07:05banned from the Met Gala for her life?
01:07:08Yeah, she is.
01:07:09She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:11I shouldn't be here?
01:07:12Look at the way Bryn's holding that needle.
01:07:14How much longer can you keep up...
01:07:16Just step aside and let me...
01:07:21Okay, somebody has to call Hannah Summer.
01:07:23The chair of the gala will know how to handle
01:07:25this dirty little party crasher.
01:07:30What now?
01:07:32We have a security situation.
01:07:33Party crasher on the gala floor.
01:07:35Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:38Danny?
01:07:39Anya's star designer?
01:07:44I'm fine.
01:07:45I am not some delicate little flower.
01:07:48I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:53Hannah, darling.
01:07:57Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell
01:08:00has been banned from the gala.
01:08:02Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:08:04What?
01:08:06I said I've got it.
01:08:09Fine.
01:08:10That's the way you want it to be.
01:08:17See?
01:08:18As a true genius behind this dress,
01:08:21I think it's as good as new.
01:08:25Shout out to my hella talented designer,
01:08:27Bryn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture,
01:08:29for dressing me tonight.
01:08:31Thanks to her,
01:08:32I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:48All of my hard work ruined by Bryn's ego.
01:08:55You know, it takes a profound lack of talents
01:08:57to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:09:03Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair gown was that?
01:09:06That girl is so not worthy of dressing Solea.
01:09:09Yes, I am!
01:09:11I'm suing Anya Winters for all your brand is worth.
01:09:14This is all your fault.
01:09:16My fault?
01:09:18I was trying to help.
01:09:20I was trying to take your mom's little washed-up brand
01:09:22and make it relevant by dressing the hottest,
01:09:24most famous woman in the world.
01:09:26How dare you call my mother's brand washed-up.
01:09:29You're gonna pay for that.
01:09:30How?
01:09:31Are you gonna fire me like you fired Danny?
01:09:35When all those loser designers got let go,
01:09:37I replaced the staff with my own people.
01:09:40If I go,
01:09:41they go.
01:09:43How will Anya Winters keep its title
01:09:45as number one couture house
01:09:46without a design staff?
01:09:49You won't keep your spot as number one
01:09:51as long as you have a fraud like Brynn
01:09:52as your creative director either.
01:09:57Dude,
01:09:58that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:10:00I'm calling my lawyers.
01:10:02Brynn,
01:10:02this is all your fault.
01:10:05Okay,
01:10:05if you guys all want someone to blame for this,
01:10:07why did you blame Danny?
01:10:09Okay,
01:10:09I didn't even make that stupid dress.
01:10:11She did.
01:10:17I didn't,
01:10:18I didn't,
01:10:19I didn't mean,
01:10:19I,
01:10:20I think it's finally time to show them
01:10:22who you really are.
01:10:23Brynn's right.
01:10:25I designed the dress.
01:10:27And,
01:10:28I'll prove it.
01:10:38Saleya,
01:10:39will you meet me on stage?
01:10:40Don't.
01:10:42You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch.
01:10:45I mean,
01:10:45look at her.
01:10:46She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:48Image means nothing
01:10:50without substance.
01:10:52without talent.
01:10:53A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:56Damn.
01:10:57That's deep.
01:10:59I agree.
01:11:00I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:03I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:23Danny Maxwell.
01:11:24You were a genius.
01:11:29I have never seen something so stunning.
01:11:32I need her to dress me like that.
01:11:34Wait,
01:11:35this means that I fumbled a super talented baddie?
01:11:39Oh,
01:11:39fuck.
01:11:41Fuck.
01:11:41It's everything I've ever wanted.
01:11:43You saved this night.
01:11:47Holy cow.
01:11:49This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
01:11:52You're a visionary.
01:11:54And this time,
01:11:56everyone knows it.
01:11:58Saleya,
01:11:59who are you wearing?
01:12:00I'm wearing...
01:12:02I'm wearing...
01:12:03Danny Maxwell.
01:12:07For Cossé Jean Couture.
01:12:10Shh.
01:12:10I can't be.
01:12:12Danny's the superstar designer that I've...
01:12:14This is what I've been trying to tell you.
01:12:17Danny is a fashion icon.
01:12:22You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's couture brand.
01:12:27You were the brain-dead nepo baby idiot she warned me about.
01:12:31What is that strung-out deadbeat intern doing at the fucking Met Gala?
01:12:37I thought you fired her.
01:12:39I didn't fire her.
01:12:41I actually promoted her to creative director.
01:12:44You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my star designer?
01:12:52Yeah, I did.
01:12:54Do you know how hard I've worked?
01:12:56Do you know how much money I spent to get Danny Maxwell in my fashion house?
01:13:02She is the lifeblood of this brand.
01:13:06And what did you do?
01:13:08You fired her?
01:13:12So, is that Maxwell along?
01:13:16Vanessa, you're fired.
01:13:18No, Mom, please, please.
01:13:19You can't.
01:13:20I need this.
01:13:21I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter.
01:13:23When I turned this over to you, my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture.
01:13:29And now look at it.
01:13:30It's a laughingstock.
01:13:33You.
01:13:34You did this.
01:13:36Mom, I'm really sorry.
01:13:37She didn't get me fucked up.
01:13:40How did I fucked up so bad?
01:13:45Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala.
01:13:48And she personally banned Danny.
01:13:51You would not want to bash an outcast on your team, Al, would you?
01:13:55You have some nerve telling me what I did or didn't do.
01:14:00You duped us all into thinking you're a fashion icon when you're nothing more than a dirty scammer in a
01:14:09designer dress.
01:14:12Danny Maxwell is officially granted a lifetime invitation to the Met Gala.
01:14:19But you are banned forever.
01:14:23And you're fired, too.
01:14:25Security?
01:14:26No!
01:14:26Take her away.
01:14:27No, please!
01:14:28Hand her over to the cops.
01:14:29She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion.
01:14:33No!
01:14:34Please!
01:14:34Ah!
01:14:37Danny, please come back to work for me.
01:14:40You know how much I have done for you.
01:14:44My fashion house can't survive without you.
01:14:46I am begging you.
01:14:50Everything you gave me, I gave it all back when your daughter accused me of sabotaging a thing I put
01:14:55my heart and soul into creating.
01:14:57No, she's exaggerating.
01:14:59That's not what happened.
01:15:00It was Brynn.
01:15:01She was scheming to try to steal Danny's job the whole time.
01:15:05That bitch duped me and got me all confused.
01:15:07Seriously?
01:15:08Well, that confusion almost cost me my whole fashion career and everything I've worked for.
01:15:14Did it feel good making me take the fall for your stupid mistakes?
01:15:19Danny, I'm so sorry.
01:15:22I'm sorry, too.
01:15:25I'm not coming back to Anya Winter Couture.
01:15:28I'm staying where I know I'm appreciated.
01:15:30Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style.
01:15:35So please, step aside.
01:15:42This is our moment.
01:15:46And we at Claude St. Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best on it.
01:15:57You ruined it.
01:15:59You have ruined everything I've built.
01:16:02I can't.
01:16:03Oh!
01:16:04Ah!
01:16:06Oh, my God.
01:16:07Wow.
01:16:08They're really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:10Ah, yes.
01:16:12Sorry, are you crying?
01:16:14No.
01:16:15God, you're hot.
01:16:17Have you ever wanted to be the face of a menswear line?
01:16:21Hell yeah.
01:16:24You better not show up at the office tomorrow.
01:16:26I never should have hired you.
01:16:31Oh, no.
01:16:33I need a job.
01:16:34Vanessa!
01:16:35Vanessa!
01:16:37I'm too hot to be on these streets.
01:16:44Call me.
01:16:46Danny.
01:16:47Why did I ever leave you?
01:16:49Sorry.
01:16:50We have to take some back carpet tips together.
01:16:52I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who made my dress to me.
01:16:57Give me five minutes.
01:17:14I knew you'd take back your crown.
01:17:16Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:19I was out.
01:17:20And I was good.
01:17:34Congratulations.
01:17:36You made it to the top.
01:17:39And that's where I'll stay.
