Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over
00:00:10a billion dollars in ARC's situation.
00:00:13Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning. Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
00:00:18Help me up here, I'm drowning. I'm drowning. No, you have to.
00:00:24I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:25You can't do this now. This 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 laughing stock of Wall Street.
00:00:35No, 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. Shit.
00:00:55Give me a sec.
00:01:00Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing?
00:01:03Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask you 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.
00:01:23The stock price is recovering. How is that possible?
00:01:27Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:30Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:33Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes. Chairman's orders.
00:01:41Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you. Watch your back.
00:02:14Today, Damien successfully made a piece of paper.
00:02:16We actually neutralized the short attack against Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:21Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:29Since when does Damien own house of takeover from a hole in the ground?
00:02:32He must have stole this one from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back and Damien used his pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:48Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire, the least that every single one of you
00:02:55can do.
00:02:56Damien!
00:02:59Of course.
00:03:01Questions?
00:03:03I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:11Julian, our 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.
00:03:27I forgot.
00:03:29You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:31My strategies, you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:39Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, we'll start with a question.
00:03:45Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:47And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:51Doesn't matter.
00:03:52What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name your enemy?
00:03:55Alright, fine.
00:03:56Next question.
00:03:58Uh, which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:04:00And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:07Um...
00:04:08Well, I uh...
00:04:09Well...
00:04:10Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:12Alright.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:16the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight,
00:04:18or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:24Let's be real.
00:04:26You are nothing but a glory hound,
00:04:28who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees the real.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:45You know what, Clark?
00:04:46You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:05:00You hear that, Dad?
00:05:01I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:07Understood.
00:05:08Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:09I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:12Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap,
00:05:19and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:22You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:25Now, uh, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:28Harper is, uh, old friend, good staff, you know?
00:05:32Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:35What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:37Feelings could grow, Brad.
00:05:39Our families go way back.
00:05:41Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:44My life.
00:05:45My choice.
00:05:46Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that-
00:05:48Enough!
00:05:49Oh, that's it.
00:05:50You're going to do this.
00:05:52I've already arranged everything.
00:05:53You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:56Go work with Serena.
00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:03You refuse.
00:06:05Okay.
00:06:06Nurse, Dr. Ann, check it out.
00:06:08My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:10What's the point?
00:06:10Okay.
00:06:11Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:13Alright.
00:06:13I'll go.
00:06:15I know what I'm asking.
00:06:18For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:22We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:24The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:26No.
00:06:26We do not abandon our own.
00:06:30Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:33And help them.
00:06:34Please.
00:06:35For me.
00:06:37Fine.
00:06:38I'll do it.
00:06:40I hear you.
00:06:48For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:54I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:57I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:07:00And for what?
00:07:02So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:06It's time to come home.
00:07:14You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:17So...
00:07:18Pathetic.
00:07:19I said you're fired.
00:07:20Get your shit and get the fuck out of my throat.
00:07:22I heard you.
00:07:24I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay, and then I'm gone.
00:07:27I said no!
00:07:28Or else I'm gonna cause security and you're gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:30Suit yourself.
00:07:33Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:37Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:40You will leave.
00:07:41Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:45Serena, is that really the best play you wanna make here?
00:07:47I will not repeat it.
00:07:48And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:51You know what, Serena?
00:07:52Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:08:00You!
00:08:00Don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:02The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:05is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:07And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:10You're fucking nothing.
00:08:12You're a little trust-spun, entitled piece-of-shit baby.
00:08:15I mean, even your old Beyoncé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:18So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost
00:08:21before I fucking report what?
00:08:30You broke it.
00:08:31You broke my petite.
00:08:32You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:34A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:38We lost your balance.
00:08:40Maybe work on your question.
00:08:42Julian, that is enough.
00:08:43Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:45Assault?
00:08:46Destruction of property?
00:08:48As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:51Effective immediately.
00:08:53Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:55Serena, you broke my watch.
00:08:56The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:58He has to pay for it.
00:08:59Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:09:01Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:07Fine.
00:09:09I'll pay.
00:09:10Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12What, one hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:13It's a million.
00:09:15A million for that.
00:09:16It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:17It's priceless.
00:09:19A million dollars being generous.
00:09:20You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:22A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:25He does have a point card.
00:09:26You break it, you buy it.
00:09:28That's the rule.
00:09:29Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:37Well, you gonna wire me the money?
00:09:40Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:42And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:48So what if you're Serena's Beyonce?
00:09:51Look at her now.
00:09:52She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:55A million dollars.
00:09:57That's the final offer?
00:09:59What do you mean?
00:10:04Hi, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:19I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:26You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:29What's next in a private army?
00:10:32All right, Julian.
00:10:32The charade ends now.
00:10:33Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:36But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:39We are done.
00:10:41You sure?
00:10:42Whoa, whoa.
00:10:43You heard that, Julian?
00:10:44Your engagement's over.
00:10:45Now get out before I-
00:10:47Hey, bro, get your hands off me!
00:10:52Put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:54You know what?
00:10:54I'm gonna wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:11:01Enough!
00:11:06Mr. Brooks.
00:11:09That's David Brooks.
00:11:11President of the Harvey View Bank.
00:11:12What's a Wall Street Titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:14Do you think he has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:16I can't be.
00:11:17That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:22Mr. Clark.
00:11:23The one million.
00:11:25As requested.
00:11:45What?
00:11:48Mr. Brooks.
00:11:50Personally delivering cash?
00:11:51To Julian?
00:11:53Wait.
00:11:53The money is...
00:11:54It's real?
00:11:55Wait.
00:11:56Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:58I mean...
00:11:59Wait.
00:11:59Who are you?
00:12:03Much appreciated.
00:12:04You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:06I don't know.
00:12:12I don't know.
00:12:13Mr. Brooks.
00:12:13Sir.
00:12:14We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:17My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:19I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with me sometime.
00:12:23Mr. Clark.
00:12:25Is there anything else you require?
00:12:27My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:29No.
00:12:30You can go down.
00:12:31Of course.
00:12:39A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:44Unprofessional.
00:12:45I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:47We'll reassess when there's, uh, adult supervision.
00:12:50Yes, sir.
00:12:52Mr. Brooks, I...
00:12:56Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:58Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:13:00The chairman will have his head.
00:13:02This is all your fault, all right?
00:13:04You gotta fix this.
00:13:05You call him back here and get that loan reinstated.
00:13:07Oh, I swear, I'm gonna...
00:13:08You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:11As for us...
00:13:15One million.
00:13:16In full.
00:13:16Which makes this watch...
00:13:22It's mine.
00:13:24You arrogant.
00:13:25Son of a bitch!
00:13:30I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:31I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:39But it's all mine now.
00:13:41Yeah, sure.
00:13:41The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:43But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:45That useless piece of junk, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:48Oh...
00:13:49I don't know.
00:13:49Maybe about...
00:13:51A hundred million?
00:13:52A hundred million dollars!
00:13:56A hundred million dollars!
00:13:57For a laptop?
00:13:58Have you lost your mind?
00:14:02A hundred million.
00:14:03For a laptop.
00:14:05Julian.
00:14:06The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:09What your committee is extortion.
00:14:11That's illegal!
00:14:12So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:15By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:18Huh?
00:14:19That's a concern.
00:14:20Enough!
00:14:21Julian.
00:14:23You know, I know you think you're right, but a stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:29A hundred million dollars?
00:14:31I...
00:14:32Dream on.
00:14:33Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:35But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:37What is it, made of gold?
00:14:38Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars!
00:14:42You know what?
00:14:43You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:52Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:54That's Bennett Sullivan.
00:14:55SVP for Stellar.
00:14:57Here?
00:14:57You think it's about the three hundred million dollar partnership deal?
00:15:00Three hundred million?
00:15:01That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:04Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:06Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:08Uh...
00:15:08What an unexpected honor.
00:15:10I'm...
00:15:10I'm Serena Harper.
00:15:11Uh, CEO.
00:15:12Do...
00:15:12What do we owe the...
00:15:13Mr. Clark.
00:15:14Our security have detected an urgent impact along from your device.
00:15:18And the signal originated here.
00:15:20We were concerned for your safety and came immediately.
00:15:22Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:24Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:27Unbelievable.
00:15:28Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:30Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:31It just...
00:15:31It took a fall.
00:15:34God.
00:15:35This damage is significant.
00:15:37With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be thirty million.
00:15:45Thirty million dollars?!
00:15:46No, no, no, no!
00:15:47To fix a fucking laptop?!
00:15:49That's impossible!
00:15:50There's no way!
00:15:51Are you questioning me?
00:15:52No, I just...
00:15:53I'll open your eyes.
00:15:54This is a one-off laptop with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:59You better pray that those data partitions are intact or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:04I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:07It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:11I mean, with our declarations, this is at least seventy million dollars.
00:16:17That's seventy million dollars?!
00:16:18Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:24All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:27Here.
00:16:29Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:33See for yourself.
00:16:43I mean, who carries around a hundred million dollar laptop?!
00:16:50Who exactly are you?
00:16:51You don't get to know.
00:16:53In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:56There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs a hundred million dollars!
00:17:00You know what?
00:17:00This is a fucking scam.
00:17:01These two, they're working together.
00:17:03I'm telling you.
00:17:03It's a con.
00:17:04Are you serious?
00:17:05I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:07I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:09I don't fly across the city a scamming nobody like you.
00:17:11Listen, I have someone.
00:17:13Mr. Harper, this is the employee you hire.
00:17:16He's a fool.
00:17:17And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:20Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:23Consider it terminated.
00:17:25What?!
00:17:25Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:28Damien is just...
00:17:29He's stressed.
00:17:30He didn't mean...
00:17:31Save it.
00:17:32You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:35And you, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:39My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:42I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:47Mr. Sullivan's legal team is legendary.
00:17:49He never lost.
00:17:51Damien can't fight this.
00:17:52Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:57He's done for.
00:17:59This will be a hell.
00:18:01Please.
00:18:06Please.
00:18:10Mr. Sullivan.
00:18:11Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:14Will that suffice?
00:18:16I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:18You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:22Full payment.
00:18:24In my account, within three days.
00:18:27In that case, we're done here.
00:18:30Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else.
00:18:34Mr. Sullivan, are our partners.
00:18:35Ms. Harper, get your house in order first.
00:18:38Stellar has standards.
00:18:40We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:43That'll be all.
00:18:44Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:45Oh, that's funny.
00:18:46Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:48A hundred million on the line, and you swoop in to cover for him.
00:18:51You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:57Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business!
00:19:01We don't need someone like you worrying about it!
00:19:03He's right.
00:19:05Juliana, I give you my word.
00:19:07The full amount will be paid within three days, but under one condition.
00:19:11Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:13And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:16Now.
00:19:17Did you hear that, Julie?
00:19:19You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:20Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:21But it's not about what you made.
00:19:22It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:23And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:26So get the fuck out!
00:19:28Get the fuck out?
00:19:31One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:36Remind me.
00:19:36Which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:39Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:42He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:47Stop.
00:19:47Stop!
00:19:53This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:56Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:20:00Funny.
00:20:01Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:20:04Remind me.
00:20:04Which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:08You.
00:20:10You.
00:20:11You.
00:20:13You.
00:20:19Get the fuck out!
00:20:20Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:23This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:26I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:29Security, remove him.
00:20:33Julian, please, don't make us get physical.
00:20:36I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:38You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:40Chairman Harper brought you in!
00:20:43Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:46Who do you think you are?
00:20:47You, you, you think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:49Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:52The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:57Do it.
00:21:00Looks like I don't need that phone call.
00:21:02Still running your mouth, huh?
00:21:04Move.
00:21:04Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:05Okay.
00:21:10What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:14Stand down!
00:21:16All of you!
00:21:16You, out of here.
00:21:18Now!
00:21:18Dad?
00:21:19Grandpa?
00:21:20What are you doing here?
00:21:26Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's gone on today.
00:21:30I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:36Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:39What?
00:21:40Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:43Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:47Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:51How could you possibly...
00:21:52Shut up!
00:22:01Serena, how dare you disrespect Julian?
00:22:04Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has.
00:22:06You can't just hit people.
00:22:07I wish we hit him more.
00:22:09Serena, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:14We didn't tell you everything because of your ego.
00:22:16And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:18We were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:22But who knew?
00:22:23Serena, you've been blind.
00:22:26Julian is...
00:22:27Thomas, you can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:29No real feelings.
00:22:30No need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:33Julian, please, understand.
00:22:35All of this is on us.
00:22:37Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harper family.
00:22:41Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:48Apologize to Julian, now!
00:22:49No!
00:22:50I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:53To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:58But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:23:03I see right through you.
00:23:05And I will not apologize to you.
00:23:08Serena, enough!
00:23:10Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:11Let me apologize.
00:23:13Save it.
00:23:14If Serena can't manage an apology herself, then I have no reason to protect this company
00:23:19anymore.
00:23:21Issue my order.
00:23:23Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:26Cease every protective measure effective immediately.
00:23:29Julian, please, don't.
00:23:30Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:33Look!
00:23:35Oh!
00:23:36What?
00:23:39No, no, no, no, no.
00:23:41What?
00:23:42Oh, I guess you would have just pulled the orders.
00:23:44What do you mean?
00:23:45Hostile takeover.
00:23:46All of our investors pulled out.
00:23:47How can that be?
00:23:53Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:58What?
00:23:59My entire division just stopped.
00:24:01We can't operate like this.
00:24:02A stunning reversal.
00:24:04Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant, leaving the group
00:24:09facing massive losses.
00:24:10Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:15Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:16Why did Harper Enterprises suddenly lose power?
00:24:20What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:23How is that possible?
00:24:25Are you attacking the company?
00:24:27No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you.
00:24:34Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks.
00:24:37Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks.
00:24:39It's Harper.
00:24:40This isn't a race.
00:24:41Our major partners are terminating their contracts.
00:24:44And our own liquidity can't cover the gap.
00:24:47If it continues, the stock will crash straight through the floor.
00:24:51What did you say?
00:24:52Damn it.
00:24:54How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:57Why him?
00:24:57I won't accept this.
00:24:58I won't.
00:24:59Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:25:05Apologize to Julian.
00:25:07No!
00:25:11Serena, apologize.
00:25:15Serena.
00:25:26Serena, Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:28Harper Enterprises is worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:25:31You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:33Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:38to you.
00:25:42It's your fucking fault.
00:25:44You apologize to Julian right now and get on your knees.
00:25:47Dad!
00:25:49Damien!
00:25:50Damien!
00:25:51Dad, stop!
00:25:52Damien has only ever stood up for me.
00:25:54He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you trade him like this.
00:25:58Stay out of the way.
00:25:59No!
00:26:00Are you really going to go to war with Julian over this snake?
00:26:04Do you even have any idea who he really is?
00:26:07Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this.
00:26:10I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me.
00:26:17Serena, that is enough.
00:26:18You hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:21What about this guy?
00:26:22What about him?
00:26:23He hides behind your name to steal other people's work.
00:26:26He throws tea on me in this very room.
00:26:28He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a $100,000 watch.
00:26:32Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:34Oh, I...
00:26:36But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:39Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:41You're just biased.
00:26:44I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:47I have asked you out 37 times.
00:26:50Because I thought we should at least get to know each other.
00:26:52Every time I have asked you out, you said, I'm too busy with work.
00:26:56But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:58The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:27:01Listen to him and sing your praises, right?
00:27:05Who's that?
00:27:07Oh, let me guess.
00:27:08Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:13Just ignore him.
00:27:14Is he still your fiancé?
00:27:17Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:20I just...
00:27:21I can't stand him.
00:27:23A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:28So what if I did?
00:27:30Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice.
00:27:33We're engaged.
00:27:34Not married.
00:27:35I can see whoever I want.
00:27:38Serena, shut up.
00:27:40No, I am not done.
00:27:42Damien has worked himself to the bone.
00:27:45He is driven and disciplined.
00:27:47And when Harper first went public, he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:51If you had even half his talent, Julian, maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:57But you don't.
00:28:01Damien was a key reason you made it.
00:28:03That's your story, right?
00:28:04What is so funny?
00:28:06I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:28:09Do you know why, for the past six months, all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:14Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:17Why every time that you wanted a loan, the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:22Because Damien is brilliant.
00:28:23Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way.
00:28:26Damien?
00:28:27Brilliant?
00:28:29That was Julian.
00:28:31Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together.
00:28:36Serena.
00:28:37No, that is impossible.
00:28:39I don't believe it.
00:28:49Hey.
00:28:51Eyes up, Serena.
00:28:52In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections and cleared a path for you.
00:28:56Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange.
00:28:58And you know, I made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:29:01That's Iron Gate, North Bridge, and even Silver Line.
00:29:04Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:29:06They've all been backing us behind the scenes?
00:29:09No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:11Julian is the one with this kind of network.
00:29:13Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this.
00:29:16That's a death wish.
00:29:21No, no, no.
00:29:22It's not true, huh?
00:29:24Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me and my hard work and my connections.
00:29:28You arrogant fool.
00:29:31Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:40All right, that's enough.
00:29:43I finally got the all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:45I can go home.
00:29:46So as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:50Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:52But the engagement...
00:29:54Let him go.
00:29:55I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:30:01Without my connections and my network, Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:30:06And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:30:10Wait, what?
00:30:13Prepare yourselves.
00:30:14Julian.
00:30:16Julian.
00:30:16That's it.
00:30:17Julian.
00:30:20Serena.
00:30:22You silly, foolish, foolish girl.
00:30:25Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:28With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:31Serena's right.
00:30:32Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper, I'm going to stand by Serena's side and I'm going to give her everything that I've
00:30:38got.
00:30:38Crap.
00:30:39I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all.
00:30:43Dad, that is enough.
00:30:45Dad.
00:30:46Grandpa.
00:30:48I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:50But I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:53And so will I.
00:30:56I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:31:01It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:31:04This meeting is over.
00:31:06Serena, wait up.
00:31:08You.
00:31:09God.
00:31:10Tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:17Serena.
00:31:18Serena.
00:31:19Don't even worry about that.
00:31:20I know our enterprise took a huge hit today.
00:31:22But as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake project, change the game, and everyone will still think
00:31:27that we're in control.
00:31:28Easy.
00:31:30The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:33If we can win that contract, we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:38Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before, and I'm going to put this one in your hands, too.
00:31:44It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:46No, no, absolutely.
00:31:47You don't even count on me.
00:31:48Amber Group's deputy VP of projects.
00:31:51I mean, you trust me, really?
00:31:53He else has been assigned.
00:32:02Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:32:04Same as always.
00:32:06Once the Harper team arrives, we hand it straight to them.
00:32:09Miss Lawson, we just got an update.
00:32:10Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:13The engagement is off.
00:32:14Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:18Are you sure?
00:32:20Absolutely.
00:32:22Word is she listened to her assistant, Damien, who really stirred the pot, and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:27Serena really thinks she got where she is because of Damien?
00:32:30That for your little lap dog?
00:32:32Then do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:36Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:41Not a chance.
00:32:43Open it to public bidding.
00:32:44Yes, ma'am.
00:32:53Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:56Damien, Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:33:00How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:15Damien, what does this mean, huh?
00:33:18Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:23That's one million in clean crypto.
00:33:27Untraceable.
00:33:28Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:32We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:36Oh my, Damien.
00:33:37You're too kind.
00:33:39Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:47Sit tight.
00:33:49Contract's yours.
00:33:52Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:58Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:34:28Well, um, friends, Julian.
00:34:32All right, Serena kicked you out.
00:34:35Six months of hard work down the drain.
00:34:39What does that feel?
00:34:41Oh, I see.
00:34:42So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit.
00:34:45Is that right?
00:34:46Of course.
00:34:48Not.
00:34:51I'm here to steal you.
00:34:53You see?
00:34:54Since your engagement is off, I was thinking, how about you consider me, huh?
00:35:05Guys like us, we don't get to escape alliances.
00:35:08Our families will bear us off either way, so...
00:35:12Why pick a stranger when there's someone who actually knows you?
00:35:19You see?
00:35:20Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school.
00:35:27We match.
00:35:29You know?
00:35:30We fit.
00:35:33Hang on.
00:35:34Hang on.
00:35:34Nora, you're...
00:35:34Are you saying this because you're drunk, or do you...
00:35:37Shh.
00:35:39Shh.
00:35:45I'm not drunk.
00:35:46Okay?
00:35:47You don't have to answer me tonight.
00:35:49Just think about it.
00:35:51I'm not like this...
00:35:54What?
00:35:56No.
00:36:02No.
00:36:03No.
00:36:05No.
00:36:10Oh, no.
00:36:11No.
00:36:12No.
00:36:13No.
00:36:13No.
00:36:14No.
00:36:16No.
00:36:17No.
00:36:17No.
00:36:18No.
00:36:19No.
00:36:22I told you, I'm not drunk.
00:36:24All right, this one should come off.
00:36:27Oh, shit.
00:36:28I'm drunk.
00:36:31All right, this one should come off.
00:36:33Oh, shit.
00:36:35I'm drunk.
00:36:51Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO.
00:36:54Allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:58Oh, I am so sorry.
00:37:00Bad, bad timing.
00:37:01Truly terrible timing.
00:37:10Don't move.
00:37:12If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:15Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:17Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:20I don't know if I'm close to my company's visibility,
00:37:23but I'm not letting the pictures of my breast go through.
00:37:27Okay.
00:37:28Okay.
00:37:31But if you stay free to me like this for the rest of the night,
00:37:38I think my heart's going to sleep on its chest.
00:37:53And suffer, okay?
00:37:56If you push me, I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:38:04Please, just walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:23Speak of the devil of all the times.
00:38:31Now, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:34You know what I lost?
00:38:35It's not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:39Oh, wait.
00:38:43Well, well.
00:38:44I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time.
00:38:48Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all.
00:38:51Can I help you with something?
00:38:54Seriously?
00:38:55This woman's even pretty good.
00:38:56Serena, how does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:59I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:39:01Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here, she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:39:08Pouring herself out like this?
00:39:11It's me all digger.
00:39:12Is that so?
00:39:14Now I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's Christmas project.
00:39:22What, you're bidding too?
00:39:23Yeah, I know you got connection.
00:39:25And that's great and all.
00:39:26But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:28Me, I got real talent.
00:39:29All right?
00:39:30And I'm going to win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:32You, you're just going to fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:37Good luck.
00:39:49See that?
00:39:50That is a shameless whore.
00:39:53That woman seems familiar.
00:39:55Samantha, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:59All right, come on.
00:40:00Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:40:01Let's go socialize.
00:40:02And maybe we'll run into the host of the party, Lost in Yourself.
00:40:06And if we do, I'll make sure we're with a good impression.
00:40:27So that pretty boy Damien actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:32Tonight, we're going to see who's really on top.
00:40:35Okay.
00:40:36Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:38What?
00:40:40You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:42Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:44But if you like glassy, I can do glassy.
00:40:48Okay.
00:40:49You can do glassy?
00:40:50Yeah.
00:40:51Miss Lawson, it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:59I'll let you get to it.
00:41:03Sally?
00:41:05Sally?
00:41:21Julie?
00:41:24I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:26You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:30You know what?
00:41:32Mason Brooks, Amber Group's deputy VP of projects, already agreed to avoid the contract to Harper
00:41:37Enterprise.
00:41:39You can't win.
00:41:45I hear the Crescent Lake project is basically yours.
00:41:48Congratulations.
00:41:50Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street, and with Damien backing you up, it's unstoppable.
00:41:55When the two of you take off, don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:58Of course.
00:41:59You know, we're going to take care of you guys.
00:42:00Thank you so much.
00:42:08See that, Julian?
00:42:10Everybody already knows that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:42:13I suggest you walk out of here before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:42:16It's funny.
00:42:18You see, my Clark Group has deeper capital, better tech, and a stronger global record than
00:42:23Harper Enterprise, so I'm just curious.
00:42:26Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:28He recognizes Damien's talent, of course.
00:42:35I need to take this.
00:42:46What century are you living in?
00:42:49You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:52Then what does?
00:42:54Ain't really that fucking stupid?
00:42:56Of course this.
00:42:59I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:43:02What do you have that's going to be there?
00:43:06You paid Mason Brooks?
00:43:08That's impossible.
00:43:09He wouldn't dare.
00:43:11That's impossible.
00:43:12He wouldn't dare.
00:43:13Yeah, you want to understand the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:43:16But hey, you're a very lovely, beautiful escort.
00:43:20Why don't you do us all a favor, get up on that stage and give us a nice little poll
00:43:23show.
00:43:24Hey, hey, I'm going to tell you, you want to know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:30Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune, capital technology, it's useless, fucking trash.
00:43:42Mason Brooks, you've got a lot in there.
00:43:45He's finished.
00:43:47Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:49Who the fuck is this?
00:43:51Who are you?
00:43:52What do you think?
00:43:52You're the Amber Group CEO or something?
00:43:55Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:57It's adorable, no?
00:43:58Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.
00:44:02Anti-anti-corruption?
00:44:04Hmm?
00:44:17What are you going to report, Mr. Brooks?
00:44:19Hmm?
00:44:22You hit me.
00:44:24You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:27I'm going to have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call.
00:44:32There he is.
00:44:33Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:34You're finished.
00:44:37Mr. Brooks.
00:44:38You mean my friend?
00:44:40There's a woman here.
00:44:41Says she's going to report to you.
00:44:42Come on, please, teach her less.
00:44:43Oh, report me?
00:44:45Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:47This woman right here.
00:44:51Miss Lawson?
00:44:52She's even quoting the anti-corruption code like she's somebody.
00:44:55Like, how fucking ridiculous.
00:44:57What?
00:44:58What?
00:45:01This can't be.
00:45:05Go ahead, laugh.
00:45:07Laugh some more.
00:45:08Are you insane, Damien?
00:45:09You'll say anything out loud.
00:45:11Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:45:12She's just a gold-dicking whore.
00:45:14I mean, even if she rats you out, who's going to believe this?
00:45:17Why are you hitting me?
00:45:19Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:20When did I ever take your money?
00:45:22I never took one cent.
00:45:24Say it again, and I'll bury you.
00:45:27Idiot.
00:45:28Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:30Miss Lawson, this Damien, he's a lunatic.
00:45:34He's making things up.
00:45:35Don't listen to him.
00:45:36I swear, I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:40Not once.
00:45:43Miss Lawson?
00:45:45No, no, no, wait.
00:45:47You're Norah Lawson, Amber's group CEO?
00:45:50How is that possible?
00:45:51How is that fucking...
00:45:52Mr. Brooks!
00:45:53Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:55Thank you so much for awarding the Crescent Lake Project to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:59We promise we won't let you down.
00:46:03Stop!
00:46:04Shut the fuck up!
00:46:06When did I ever give you anything?
00:46:09Miss Lawson?
00:46:11These Harper Enterprise people, they're all out of their minds.
00:46:14They lie like the wind.
00:46:16I can't believe a word they say.
00:46:19Miss Lawson?
00:46:22Miss Lawson?
00:46:24She's Norah Lawson?
00:46:28The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:30Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:32You can leave now.
00:46:36Miss Lawson, I am so sorry.
00:46:39Damien didn't know who you were, so he thought that you and Julian were being inappropriate.
00:46:46But I'll make him apologize right now.
00:46:49He is blunt, yes.
00:46:51But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:54Please, give Harper Enterprise the contract, and I promise we will deliver results that satisfy you.
00:47:02Exceptional ability?
00:47:03Are you sure about that?
00:47:05Of course.
00:47:07If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him so many contracts before?
00:47:11You're about to find out.
00:47:19Damien?
00:47:21What does she mean?
00:47:22Oh, shit.
00:47:24I can't let her find out.
00:47:25I screwed every project.
00:47:26Right.
00:47:26So she's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:29So she wants revenge.
00:47:32So she's going to embarrass Harper Enterprise in front of everyone.
00:47:34So what we need to do is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:36Let's go.
00:47:36Go?
00:47:37Oh, if we don't win Crescent Lake, Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:42Even if Miss Lawson is trying to punish us, we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:46Serena, please!
00:47:47Okay?
00:47:47I'm sorry.
00:47:49Here we go now.
00:47:50All right?
00:47:51I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones, but we need to go now.
00:47:53Come on.
00:47:54What is wrong with you today?
00:47:56Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:58I...
00:48:11You want to understand the rules on top there, sweetheart?
00:48:15Technology capital.
00:48:17Useless fucking trash.
00:48:19What?
00:48:20Shit!
00:48:20She actually recorded it?
00:48:22And escort.
00:48:23So why don't you do us all a nice little favor, get up on that stage, give us a nice
00:48:27little
00:48:27poll show.
00:48:31Who is that?
00:48:33He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?
00:48:36That's Damian Blackwell, Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.
00:48:39How do you not know him?
00:48:40All of the best Amber projects being sent to Harper Enterprises over the past six months,
00:48:44and now we know they were bought.
00:48:49That's not true.
00:48:50All of that's a lie.
00:48:51Just don't...
00:48:52Don't believe it.
00:48:52Just turn it up.
00:48:53Turn it up right now!
00:48:54Stop him!
00:48:56Let go of me!
00:48:59Damian, you did this behind my back?
00:49:01This is your talent?
00:49:03Your ability?
00:49:04Yes, Serena, please just see us.
00:49:06Mr. Brooks' assistant?
00:49:08What a fucking ridiculous thing to say.
00:49:10Who are you to say anything?
00:49:12What do you think?
00:49:12You're Amber Group CEO?
00:49:14Amber Group.
00:49:15Okay, turn it off, please.
00:49:17Okay?
00:49:18Okay, Miss Lawson, please just turn it off.
00:49:19Just, please stop it!
00:49:21Please!
00:49:22Please!
00:49:24Bribery is one thing, but mistaking Miss Lawson for an escort?
00:49:28A whore?
00:49:30He's fucking blind.
00:49:31The best part?
00:49:32He confessed right in front of her that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:36Genius!
00:49:37And Serena trusted him to be her assistant?
00:49:40I mean, what does that say about her judgment?
00:49:42Damian, you have disappointed me beyond words.
00:49:46Serena, I did it because I cared about you.
00:49:48Because I care about Harper Enterprise.
00:49:50Please, I'm happy.
00:49:51You told me the truth.
00:49:52Enough.
00:49:54Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:55Mason Brooks, you're fired.
00:49:58Effective immediately.
00:50:00I'm done.
00:50:02The Crescent Lake Project.
00:50:05Harper Enterprise is disqualified.
00:50:08Every single project Amber Group has done together with them will be suspended.
00:50:13The projects will be back for competitive bidding.
00:50:18No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:20Those projects are our next three years.
00:50:22They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:24Their lives are future.
00:50:25And why am I the person who hired Trash and called it talent?
00:50:31Real talent.
00:50:38Pathetic.
00:50:43Serena.
00:50:46Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:49Miss Lawson, wait.
00:50:50Serena!
00:51:00I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:51:03Asking for a dinner isn't too much, right?
00:51:06Not at all.
00:51:07You pick.
00:51:08My treat.
00:51:09Generous.
00:51:10Let's go.
00:51:11Time to rob the tycoon.
00:51:15Miss Lawson.
00:51:18Damian was wrong to bribe anyone.
00:51:20And I apologize on his behalf.
00:51:23Just please, give Harper Enterprise another chance.
00:51:28I will meet the highest standards.
00:51:30I will deliver a perfect result on every project.
00:51:34Perfect result?
00:51:35And what exactly guarantees that?
00:51:38Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:40Miss Lawson.
00:51:42Damian, Damian made a mistake.
00:51:45But his ability is exceptional.
00:51:48For six months, he managed every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly.
00:51:53No errors, no delays.
00:51:54If you don't pull this contract, I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:52:03Managed flawlessly?
00:52:04He's not the only empty suit here.
00:52:07You're too.
00:52:09Miss Lawson, you are crossing a line.
00:52:14I understand that you and Julian are close, and you want to get back at me for him.
00:52:20But humiliating someone like this, isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:23You really think I froze our cooperation because Damian, right, Mason?
00:52:28Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:30For six months, Harper Enterprise got everything it wanted from Ember Group.
00:52:38For one reason.
00:52:40Julian Clark.
00:52:41Damian has nothing to do with that.
00:52:45He was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts.
00:52:48What?
00:52:49When Julian was there, bribe or no bribe, Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway.
00:52:55But now, Julian's gone, so the special treatment is gone.
00:53:00Damian's little arriving incident?
00:53:03It was just a convenient excuse to take everything back.
00:53:06Understand now?
00:53:11And about those flawless projects.
00:53:14Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because Damian is brilliant.
00:53:18It ran smoothly because Julian called every partner, every supplier, every gatekeeper, and cleared the path for you.
00:53:27Damian had nothing to do with that.
00:53:32No.
00:53:34That's not true.
00:53:35I don't believe it.
00:53:36You don't believe me?
00:53:38Then watch.
00:53:39Watch what happens when Julian leaves.
00:53:43Let's see if your exceptional Damian can keep everything perfect when Julian is not there to hold the world together
00:53:50for you.
00:53:52Come on, let's go.
00:54:00Julian, is what she's saying true?
00:54:04You were right about one thing, Serena.
00:54:07Julian and I are closer than you thought.
00:54:09That's why it disgusts me watching him waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like you.
00:54:20Was I wrong?
00:54:21No, no, no, Serena, Serena.
00:54:22Do not listen to her nonsense.
00:54:24Harper's success is based off of my hard work.
00:54:28Okay, Nora Lawson, she's just attacking and slandering my name to defend.
00:54:32Julian, you have to believe me.
00:54:34Please, you have to understand.
00:54:35Because of you, Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:39Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:41Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse and you're asking me to trust you?
00:54:46How?
00:54:47Tell me how.
00:54:49Please, just listen to me.
00:54:51Okay, yeah, we lost Amber group, but we're not finished.
00:54:55I mean, we still have the partners and the CEOs.
00:54:57I mean, they love me.
00:54:57They absolutely love and adore me.
00:55:00I promise.
00:55:01You know what?
00:55:01Matter of fact, I'm going to call and I'm going to get you some new projects right now.
00:55:08Hello, Mr. Foster.
00:55:10It's Damien here.
00:55:11I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids and Harper Enterprise, you know, we would absolutely
00:55:16love.
00:55:17Harper Enterprise?
00:55:18Who the hell is that?
00:55:19Do you think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:23Uh, Mr. Foster, what do you mean?
00:55:27I, last time we spoke, you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise and that you would love
00:55:32to work together.
00:55:33Listen up.
00:55:34That's because Julian Clark was in your damn enterprise.
00:55:37I was giving him respect.
00:55:39You, don't flatter yourself once you're blind dumbasses.
00:55:43Call me again and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:46So what really was Julian?
00:55:48No, no, that's not possible.
00:55:50I don't, I don't believe that.
00:55:52I don't.
00:55:53Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:54It's Damien.
00:55:54I was hoping to talk about future collaborations and...
00:55:57Damien?
00:55:58You've got the fucking nerve to call me?
00:56:00I gave Harper Enterprise Project because of Mr. Clark.
00:56:04And then you turned around and claimed you closed the deal?
00:56:07Who gave you the audacity?
00:56:10Shameless trash?
00:56:14Ms. Parker.
00:56:16Ms. Parker, no, no, goddammit!
00:56:19No, I don't believe this.
00:56:21I don't believe it was fucking Julian this whole fucking time!
00:56:24Goddammit!
00:56:26Sorry, sorry.
00:56:27Um, hello?
00:56:29Mr. Turner, it's Damien.
00:56:31Damien?
00:56:32Who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:33Calling me directly?
00:56:35Learn some manners.
00:56:38Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancée.
00:56:42I'm not, you bastard tooie.
00:56:45Mr. Turner?
00:56:47Mr. Turner, please!
00:56:51What the fuck is happening?
00:56:59Ms. Harper?
00:57:00This is bad.
00:57:02Our partners are flooding us with messages.
00:57:04They're suspending contracts, pulling out a deal.
00:57:06Wait, what is happening?
00:57:08They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise because Julian Clark backed us.
00:57:13Now that he's gone, they don't trust us with their project.
00:57:16Julian.
00:57:18It's Julian again.
00:57:23It's true.
00:57:25They only gave us deals because of Julian!
00:57:29Julian!
00:57:30No, no, no, no, Sweeney, please, okay?
00:57:32They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off.
00:57:35Think about it, okay?
00:57:36You know what?
00:57:36Just give me some time, and I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:39I'll get you some new projects, I swear.
00:57:41Get away from me!
00:57:44You liar!
00:57:45You fraud, Damien!
00:57:47All those CEOs!
00:57:49They only had you pick up contracts from them.
00:57:52And you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:55I swear, I didn't know that they would.
00:58:00Get out of my sight.
00:58:02No!
00:58:03Shh!
00:58:10No!
00:58:22No!
00:58:31Fuck!
00:58:31Damn it!
00:58:33Serena, you really thought you were smart, but you're really just pathetic, trash.
00:58:42Without Julian, you're nothing.
00:58:55Dad warned you, Grandpa warned you, and you still wouldn't listen.
00:59:04You ignored everything Julian did and worshipped a con artist like Damien.
00:59:21And now look at you, projects gone, company collapsing, idiot, you arrogant, stupid idiot, so stupid.
00:59:44Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:53I'm so sorry.
00:59:55I'm so sorry.
00:59:56Listen.
00:59:58I know I messed up.
01:00:01Move.
01:00:02I'm sorry.
01:00:05Julian, I'm sorry.
01:00:09I know, I know I'm as well.
01:00:11Look.
01:00:12Always damn Julian.
01:00:15Julian.
01:00:18Come back, okay?
01:00:20Please come back.
01:00:25Damn back.
01:00:31You don't have to be scared.
01:00:34Harper Enterprises' business, Queen, is so much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:38Once I lock her down, Harper Enterprises' mind.
01:00:43Oh, Damien!
01:00:44You sick bastard!
01:00:47You sick bastard!
01:00:52You really mean it.
01:00:54I love you.
01:00:55You fucking...
01:00:56We'll get to the house.
01:00:57Hey, I'm telling you the truth.
01:00:58I mean it, okay?
01:01:00I promise.
01:01:01I'll treat you well.
01:01:05You fucking monster.
01:01:07Dad, get off me, please.
01:01:09I'm begging you, don't.
01:01:10Please.
01:01:11Yes.
01:01:11Yes.
01:01:12What did I do?
01:01:20I tried being nice to you.
01:01:22I fucking tried!
01:01:23But you keep fighting me back.
01:01:24No, no, no!
01:01:26Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:27Keep fucking screaming!
01:01:29Right?
01:01:31You're not gonna say no.
01:01:33I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:34No!
01:01:35Help!
01:01:36Help!
01:01:38Julian.
01:01:39Julian, help!
01:01:41Oh!
01:01:43Get him out of here!
01:01:45Stop!
01:01:46Let me go!
01:01:47Julian, you know this wasn't the fucking place.
01:01:49This isn't over.
01:01:55Julian, wait.
01:01:56Thank God you came and you had like...
01:01:58We are not that close.
01:02:03I was just passing through.
01:02:04I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:02:07You.
01:02:07I want you to call the Harper family.
01:02:09Tell them to come to Corral.
01:02:10Yes, sir.
01:02:13Julian.
01:02:15I am sorry.
01:02:16I know.
01:02:18I was wrong.
01:02:19I just...
01:02:20Please come back.
01:02:22Julian!
01:02:23Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:02:26Let's go.
01:02:34Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man and you refused
01:02:46to listen.
01:02:48Julian, if Julian, if Julian doesn't come along, just at the right time, oh my God, I can't even, I
01:02:56can't even think about it.
01:02:58If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours, one day, you're going to live to regret it.
01:03:04Dad, Grandpa, please, stop, I know I was wrong, okay?
01:03:10I'll apologize to Julian, and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:03:18The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:03:25Grandpa, don't worry.
01:03:27I will apologize properly, and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:33That's all we can do.
01:03:36So, John, put out a citywide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:43He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:46We're not letting that go.
01:03:48No, we're not.
01:03:50Understood.
01:03:51Good.
01:04:22Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:29What is this supposed to be?
01:04:31A gift for you.
01:04:33Myself.
01:04:35I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:38Every group backs you up.
01:04:40No questions asked.
01:04:41But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:45Properly.
01:04:56Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:59You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:05:02You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped, and any man would have, you know, pounced me
01:05:09by now.
01:05:10Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:05:13Hung up?
01:05:15Nor would I be hung up on Serena.
01:05:17She and I were never romantic.
01:05:20No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:05:24Things are moving too fast.
01:05:26You go with them twice.
01:05:28But I don't have time.
01:05:30My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:35Some old money.
01:05:37Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:40Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:41Are you serious?
01:05:42Yes, Julian.
01:05:44My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune, and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:50But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:51I want you.
01:05:52I love you.
01:05:54Julian.
01:05:57Let's make it official.
01:05:59Let's get married.
01:06:03You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:06:10Please, Julian.
01:06:21Okay.
01:06:23I'll marry you.
01:06:25Are you serious?
01:06:27No takebacks.
01:06:28No takebacks.
01:06:29Ever.
01:06:29Ever.
01:06:30I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:33But can you help me out?
01:06:37Um, my hands are getting hurt.
01:06:40So impatient.
01:06:44It's like you said.
01:06:47If I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:56Then be gentle.
01:07:05Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:07:11Uh, no.
01:07:12Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:07:14Of course I remember that.
01:07:16You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift,
01:07:18you kind of remember that for the rest of your life.
01:07:21Details.
01:07:22Details.
01:07:23Those are just tiny details.
01:07:27You look like a big retail scene.
01:07:31Julian.
01:07:34Can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:37Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:39Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:40I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:42I misjudged everything.
01:07:44Please.
01:07:45Just give me one more chance, and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:48And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:51I'll do anything.
01:07:52I'm sorry.
01:07:53I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:58Boyfriend?
01:08:05Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:08:08Well, Julian hates them too.
01:08:10And yet, you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:08:15He asked you out 37 times.
01:08:17So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:08:20Hmm?
01:08:22Men like him?
01:08:25If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:29Listen carefully.
01:08:30We are all together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:34If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:40Come on.
01:08:41We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:44Let's not be late.
01:08:45Wedding outfits.
01:08:48Let's go.
01:08:54Let's go.
01:09:03So how did it go?
01:09:05Julian?
01:09:07He's with Nora.
01:09:08Oh, God.
01:09:12Nora.
01:09:13Nora Lawson.
01:09:15CEO of Amber Group.
01:09:17Of course.
01:09:18You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:09:22The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:09:26You don't get another chance.
01:09:28God gave our family a chance.
01:09:30And we blew it.
01:09:33God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:35Please.
01:09:38Ms. Hopper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:41Hopper Enterprises' cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:44If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:50Great.
01:09:51Now all of Warstreet knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:55No one's going to lend to us now.
01:09:57How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:59This is my fault.
01:10:00Okay?
01:10:01I was blind.
01:10:02Are you proud now?
01:10:04I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:10:08And I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:10:13And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:10:17Dad.
01:10:18Grandpa.
01:10:20I'm so sorry.
01:10:21I ruined Harper Enterprise.
01:10:24I ruined everything.
01:10:26Dad.
01:10:27You're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:31So maybe you should go talk to him and see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:37Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:38Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:41If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:44The Clark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:47Yes, they honored our engagement.
01:10:51And that was a mercy.
01:10:53That was a blessing.
01:10:54But you threw it away.
01:11:00Still, for your sake and for your future, and for our future, we'll fight.
01:11:13Serena, when you see Julian's grandfather, your apology has to be sincere.
01:11:22If he forgives you, only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:29Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:30For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:49Welcome.
01:11:50You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:55Perfect timing.
01:11:56They're just about to start.
01:11:58Engagement party?
01:12:00So they're really engaged?
01:12:03How is this all happening so fast?
01:12:07What is this supposed to mean?
01:12:09Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born,
01:12:13and everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married.
01:12:16Oh, oh, I see.
01:12:19You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:12:23Then please leave.
01:12:25Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:27Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:12:31If there's an engagement party, that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:40And that means we're done.
01:12:44There's no more chances left.
01:12:46We're leaving.
01:12:48Is this my punishment?
01:12:52All right, everyone.
01:12:54Big smiles.
01:13:11Julian, are you okay?
01:13:20What is it?
01:13:21Oh, it's nothing.
01:13:22Come on.
01:13:22Dinner's almost ready.
01:13:37Dad, the Harpers.
01:13:40My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:45For a young one,
01:13:47for six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:50it was a total humiliation.
01:13:53We've shown that Harper had more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:59Understood, Dad.
01:14:08Okay, enough, Serena.
01:14:10Stop.
01:14:11You can't drink this away.
01:14:13Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:14:16If you don't get up, it's over.
01:14:19Just leave me the fuck alone, okay?
01:14:22Just let me drink.
01:14:23I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:14:25I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:14:27No, you...
01:14:30All right, I've got to take this.
01:14:32Don't move.
01:14:33I'll be right back,
01:14:34and then I am taking you home.
01:14:45Nora.
01:14:48Okay, Nora.
01:14:50Okay, Nora, be honest.
01:14:51You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:53You just got engaged,
01:14:55and you're getting married next week?
01:14:57Let's see.
01:14:59You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:15:02You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:15:03I've liked Julian for 20 years,
01:15:06and I finally got him to say yes.
01:15:08You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:15:10Lock it down from what?
01:15:11From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:15:14They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:15:18I have to move fast.
01:15:20If they start begging,
01:15:23what if Julian hesitates?
01:15:25But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:15:28There's no real love.
01:15:30Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:31What are you afraid of?
01:15:33You don't get it.
01:15:35Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:38and it wasn't just because his grandfather would order it.
01:15:41Then why?
01:15:44Because Serena is his type.
01:15:48Wait, what?
01:15:52I am Julian's type?
01:15:56No way!
01:15:57I'm serious.
01:15:59The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:16:01That exact time.
01:16:03I mean, with his personality,
01:16:06even if his grandfather forced him,
01:16:09he would have stayed there for three days max,
01:16:10and then vanished.
01:16:11He would not stay there
01:16:14and take six months of humiliation
01:16:16if he didn't want it.
01:16:17That's Julian Clark.
01:16:20So that's why?
01:16:22Serena must have destroyed him.
01:16:24I have to get married fast.
01:16:26I cannot give her a single chance.
01:16:29So that's what it was.
01:16:31Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:33because I'm his type.
01:16:35He likes me.
01:16:36That means I still have a chance.
01:16:38I still have a chance.
01:16:40This is my last shot.
01:16:42I am not wasting it.
01:16:50Where is she?
01:16:57Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:58let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:17:14Wow.
01:17:15They look perfect together.
01:17:17They're childhood sweethearts.
01:17:19The whole fantasy.
01:17:20Oh, my God.
01:17:21Brilliant.
01:17:23And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:44Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:48Who is that?
01:17:49Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:51CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:53You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:56and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:58Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:18:02Pathetic.
01:18:04Wait!
01:18:06Serena, what are you doing here?
01:18:10Julian.
01:18:11I know you like me.
01:18:13You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:18:16humiliated if you didn't.
01:18:22I know.
01:18:23I was wrong.
01:18:24Totally wrong.
01:18:25Okay?
01:18:26Just please.
01:18:27Give me another chance.
01:18:31Our engagement is over.
01:18:34In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:37Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:39Have some dignity.
01:18:40In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:42No, please.
01:18:43I'll do anything.
01:18:44Just...
01:18:46Stop.
01:18:49I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times,
01:18:55but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:58I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:19:03Can we please get her out?
01:19:05No, don't touch me!
01:19:06Julian, what do you want from me?
01:19:08I know you like me, so why won't you give me another chance?
01:19:12Why?
01:19:17Simple question.
01:19:19Do you love me?
01:19:23I...
01:19:23Exactly.
01:19:24You don't.
01:19:25You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:19:27You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:19:30See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:34You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:39No, that, that...
01:19:41That's not true.
01:19:44Just please.
01:19:45Listen.
01:19:46Please, listen.
01:19:47Enough.
01:19:47Serena.
01:19:48When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise,
01:19:50do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:53Let me ask you this.
01:19:55If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:57if your value kept climbing,
01:19:59would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:20:03Hi.
01:20:04No, no, you wouldn't.
01:20:06You absolutely wouldn't.
01:20:07You'd be celebrating.
01:20:09You'd say that you earned the business queen a crown.
01:20:11You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:20:14You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:20:16Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:20:19No.
01:20:21No, Julian, that...
01:20:22That's not me.
01:20:24Just admit it, Serena.
01:20:26You don't feel anything for me.
01:20:28But on my wedding day,
01:20:29you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:20:31Why?
01:20:32Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:35Your donor.
01:20:36Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:38But the moment I stop being useful,
01:20:40you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:44No.
01:20:45Oh, Julian.
01:20:47That is not true the night that you saved me from Damien.
01:20:52I...
01:20:54I felt something for you.
01:20:56I did.
01:20:56Stop.
01:20:57Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:59You don't regret hurting me.
01:21:01You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:21:03You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:21:06You know, I'll admit,
01:21:07when I met you,
01:21:09you were exactly my type.
01:21:12But once I got to know you,
01:21:13once I realized what you really are,
01:21:16all I felt was disgust.
01:21:19But Nora?
01:21:22She has cared for me
01:21:24since we were kids.
01:21:27When I was sick,
01:21:29she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:21:32When I was at my lowest,
01:21:33she pulled me back up.
01:21:35Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise
01:21:37on the engagement,
01:21:39she still supported me.
01:21:41She still took hits from me.
01:21:46So, let me ask you.
01:21:49Why would I give up all of that for you?
01:21:53What makes you think you deserve that?
01:22:00Get her out.
01:22:01No, no.
01:22:02No, please don't, Julian.
01:22:04Don't, don't.
01:22:05Don't, I'm begging you.
01:22:06Just please let me explain.
01:22:08Please.
01:22:09Please, let me, please stop.
01:22:11Let me go.
01:22:11No, Julian, please don't do it.
01:22:14Crashing a wedding like that?
01:22:15I thought she actually loved him.
01:22:17Turns out,
01:22:18she just realized,
01:22:19without Julian,
01:22:20she can't stay on top.
01:22:22She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:22:24Totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:23:14I'm sure you've all heard.
01:23:17Harper Enterprise, effective today, has become a Clark Group subsidiary, so we're all
01:23:23being terminated.
01:23:24What?
01:23:26Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:23:28I've given this company 15 years.
01:23:31You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:3315 years, wow.
01:23:35Congratulations.
01:23:36You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:42You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:45I've seen how you all work.
01:23:49Bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:56What do you want me to do as a file?
01:23:58So we're going to be passing out some resignation terms, and why don't you sign them, hand over
01:24:05your badges, or you're going to rob them.
01:24:07This, this is it.
01:24:25Are you satisfied, Mal?
01:24:28Satisfied?
01:24:30Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:24:32He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:37I saved you.
01:24:40Julian.
01:24:43If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:56Julian, why didn't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:59I spent my whole life climbing upwards, and now I'm stuck at the bottom, hunted by cops.
01:25:04I won't accept it.
01:25:06Julian, watch out!
01:25:08Julian!
01:25:12Let me go!
01:25:13Fucking let me go!
01:25:14I already spared you.
01:25:16You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:25:18Yeah, take him to the police.
01:25:20Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:25:21I want him to ride in jail.
01:25:22Fuck the coward.
01:25:23You're a fucking coward!
01:25:24Hiding behind your goddamn families, buddy!
01:25:26No, no, fight me!
01:25:27101!
01:25:28101!
01:25:28Let the guards go!
01:25:29You don't have the fucking guts to you!
01:25:35Hey, Julian.
01:25:36What was that?
01:25:37Just taking out the trash.
01:25:41Are you done here?
01:25:43No.
01:25:45Let's go.
01:25:52I was wrong!
01:25:54Julian, I was wrong!
