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.

00:01:57I'll be right back.

00:01:58All the points.

00:02:00For the end of April 18th.

00:02:00Hot middle planning.

00:02:00The dark place in the to leave the home.

00:02:02The dark spot...

00:02:02Them directions.

00:02:12Mm-hmm .

00:02:14Today, Damien successfully 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.

00:02:38Now, Anthony 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.

00:02:59Question.

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 strategy is 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.

00:03:58Which 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, well...

00:04:08Well, I, uh...

00:04:09Well...

00:04:10Well, you can't even name the basics.

00:04:12Alright.

00:04:13So 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.

00:04:23Let's be real.

00:04:25You are nothing but a glory hound who 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!

00:04:59You hear that, Dad?

00:05:01I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.

00:05:06Understood.

00:05:08Now, the hearing's not enough.

00:05:09I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.

00:05:11Now.

00:05:17You took our family's market cap and raised it to $3 trillion.

00:05:22You've proven everything that needs to be proved.

00:05:25Now, 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, but our families go way better.

00:05:41Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.

00:05:44My life, my choice.

00:05:46But when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that...

00:05:48Enough!

00:05:48Oh, that's it.

00:05:50You're going to do this.

00:05:52I've already arranged everything.

00:05:54You're starting with the Harper family company today.

00:05:56Go work with Serena.

00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?

00:06:03You'll 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?

00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.

00:06:13Okay, all right.

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.

00:06:26We do not abandon our own.

00:06:30Use that brilliant head of yours.

00:06:33Enough, please, for 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,

00:06:51using every resource, every contact to help her.

00:06:54I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy

00:06:56and made it soar.

00:06:58I made Serena Harper, the queen of this city's business world.

00:07:01And for what?

00:07:02So she could give my triumphs and victories

00:07:04to 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, pathetic.

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,

00:07:26and then I'm gone.

00:07:26I said now, or I'm going to call security,

00:07:29and you're going to drag your ass out.

00:07:30Suit yourself.

00:07:33Julian, this is Harper Enterprise,

00:07:35not 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 want to 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 don'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 fund, entitled piece of shit baby.

00:08:15I mean, even your old Beyonce is telling you to get lost.

00:08:18So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor

00:08:20and get lost before I fucking report on it?

00:08:30You broke it.

00:08:31You broke my petite.

00:08:32You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?

00:08:34$100,000!

00:08:38We lost your balance.

00:08:41Maybe 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,

00:08:50I'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,

00:09:01or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.

00:09:07Fine.

00:09:09Okay.

00:09:10Is it $100,000?

00:09:11What $100,000?

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 could 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,

00:09:27you buy it.

00:09:28That's the rule.

00:09:29Though on your salary,

00:09:31it might take a few lifetimes.

00:09:37Well,

00:09:38you gonna wire me the money?

00:09:40Or are you as broke as you look?

00:09:42And if so,

00:09:43you can crawl out of here,

00:09:44and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.

00:09:48So what

00:09:49if you're Serena's

00:09:50fiance?

00:09:51Look at her now.

00:09:52She won't lift a finger for you,

00:09:53useless coward.

00:09:55A million dollars.

00:09:57That's the final offer?

00:09:59What do you mean?

00:10:04Hi,

00:10:05I need a million dollars

00:10:06brought to the main conference room

00:10:07at Harper headquarters.

00:10:22at Harper headquarters.

00:10:26You just called for a million dollars

00:10:28Like a stakeout?

00:10:30What's next?

00:10:30A private army?

00:10:32All right, Julian.

00:10:32The charade ends now.

00:10:33Leave the company,

00:10:34and you won't have to pay for the watch.

00:11:15dungeon me alone?

00:11:16It can't be!

00:12:39A company

00:12:40where executives

00:12:41throw chairs

00:12:42during a meeting?

00:12:44Unprofessional.

00:12:46the hundred million dollar deal.

00:12:47We'll reassess

00:12:48when there's

00:12:59to the chairman.

00:12:59The chairman

00:13:02This is all your fault,

00:13:04You gotta fix this.

00:13:05You call him back here

00:13:05and get that loan

00:13:06reinstated

00:13:07or I swear

00:13:07I'm gonna slip...

00:13:08You're the one

00:13:08that pissed off

00:13:08Mr. Brooks,

00:13:09not me.

00:13:11As for us,

00:13:14one million

00:13:15in full,

00:13:16which makes

00:13:17this watch

00:13:17is mine.

00:13:24You arrogant

00:13:25son of a bitch!

00:13:30I bet this is all

00:13:30the money that you have,

00:13:31isn't it?

00:13:31I bet you ought to sell

00:13:32your house

00:13:32to scrape this together,

00:13:34you fucking loser.

00:13:39But it's all mine now.

00:13:41Yeah, sure.

00:13:41The debt for the watch

00:13:42is settled.

00:13:43But can we talk about

00:13:44compensation for my laptop?

00:13:45That useless piece of junk,

00:13:46how much could that

00:13:47possibly 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?

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

00:14:06compensation

00:14:07for actual value,

00:14:09which your committee

00:14:09is extortion.

00:14:11That's illegal!

00:14:12So,

00:14:12him extorting me

00:14:13for a million

00:14:14was legal then, right?

00:14:15By the way,

00:14:15where was your sound

00:14:16legal advice

00:14:17two minutes ago?

00:14:18Huh?

00:14:19That's a concern.

00:14:20Enough!

00:14:22Julian.

00:14:23You know,

00:14:24I know you think

00:14:24you're right,

00:14:25but a stellar laptop

00:14:26costs a few thousand dollars.

00:14:29A hundred million dollars?

00:14:31I...

00:14:32Dream on.

00:14:33Sure.

00:14:33A standard stellar

00:14:34isn't worth that much,

00:14:35but this isn't a standard,

00:14:37is it?

00:14:37What is it,

00:14:37made of gold?

00:14:38Even then,

00:14:39it still wouldn't cost

00:14:40a hundred million

00:14:41fucking dollars.

00:14:42You know what?

00:14:43You need to get

00:14:44the 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

00:14:58the $300 million

00:14:58partnership here?

00:15:00$300 million?

00:15:01That's huge for us,

00:15:02but pocket change

00:15:03for stellar.

00:15:04Why would Mr. Sullivan

00:15:05come in person?

00:15:06Mr. Sullivan?

00:15:08Uh,

00:15:08what an unexpected honor.

00:15:10I'm Serena Harper,

00:15:11CEO.

00:15:12What do we owe the...

00:15:13Mr. Clark,

00:15:15the security

00:15:15have detected

00:15:16an urgent impact

00:15:17alone from your device.

00:15:18And the signal

00:15:19originated here.

00:15:20We were concerned

00:15:20for your safety

00:15:21and came immediately.

00:15:22Mr. Sullivan's here

00:15:23for Julian, too?

00:15:24Because his laptop

00:15:25impact triggered

00:15:26an alarm?

00:15:27Unbelievable.

00:15:28Mr. Clark,

00:15:29are you all right?

00:15:30Yeah, I'm fine.

00:15:31It just took a fall.

00:15:34God,

00:15:35this damage

00:15:35is significant.

00:15:37With the custom

00:15:38components,

00:15:39preliminary repair

00:15:40estimate,

00:15:41this could be

00:15:41$30 million.

00:15:45$30 million?

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...

00:15:53Well, open your eyes.

00:15:54This is a one-off laptop

00:15:55with stellar's quantum processors

00:15:57and proprietary components.

00:15:59You better pray

00:16:00that those data partitions

00:16:01are intact

00:16:02or that compensation

00:16:03will ruin you.

00:16:04I just had the critical,

00:16:05critical data corruption here.

00:16:07It's highly confidential files,

00:16:09high market value.

00:16:11I mean,

00:16:11with our declarations,

00:16:12this is at least

00:16:13$70 million.

00:16:17That's $70 million.

00:16:18Mr. Clark

00:16:19has the data

00:16:20on his laptop

00:16:21registered with

00:16:22monetary values

00:16:23to the security division.

00:16:24All damages

00:16:25to our fullest extent.

00:16:27Here.

00:16:29Receipts for the hardware

00:16:30and the notarized value

00:16:31declarations for the data.

00:16:33See for yourself.

00:16:43Who carries around

00:16:44a $100 million laptop?

00:16:50Who exactly are you?

00:16:51You don't get to know.

00:16:53In fact,

00:16:54can we stay on topic

00:16:55about my compensation?

00:16:56There's no way

00:16:56that there's a fucking laptop

00:16:58that costs $100 million.

00:17:00You know what?

00:17:00This is a fucking scam.

00:17:01These two,

00:17:02they'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

00:17:08of Stellar.

00:17:09I don't fly across the city

00:17:10to skim and nobody like you.

00:17:12Listen,

00:17:12I'm so.

00:17:13This is Harper.

00:17:14This is the employee

00:17:16you hire.

00:17:17He's a fool.

00:17:17And it speaks volumes

00:17:19about your company's judgment.

00:17:20Oh, by the way,

00:17:22our partnership deal?

00:17:23Consider it terminated.

00:17:25What?

00:17:27Mr. Sullivan,

00:17:28please.

00:17:28Damien is just...

00:17:29He's stress.

00:17:30He didn't mean...

00:17:31Save it.

00:17:32You take care of

00:17:34Mr. Clark's compensation first.

00:17:35And you,

00:17:36if you dispute evaluations,

00:17:38we can settle it in court.

00:17:39My legal team

00:17:40has 965 lawyers.

00:17:42I'd love to teach you a lesson.

00:17:47Stellar's legal team

00:17:48is legendary.

00:17:49He never lost.

00:17:51Damien can't fight this.

00:17:52Hell,

00:17:53the entire Harper Enterprise

00:17:54doesn't have the resources

00:17:55to fight this.

00:17:56he's done for.

00:17:59It's running up now.

00:18:01Please.

00:18:05Please.

00:18:09Mr. Sullivan,

00:18:11Harper Enterprise

00:18:12will provide full compensation.

00:18:14Will that suffice?

00:18:16I'm just here to certify facts.

00:18:18You need to discuss details

00:18:19with the laptop owner.

00:18:22Full payment

00:18:24in my account

00:18:25within three days.

00:18:27In that case,

00:18:28we're done here.

00:18:30Mr. Clark,

00:18:31you call me

00:18:31with anything else.

00:18:33I'll do it.

00:18:34Mr. Sullivan,

00:18:35Ms. Harper,

00:18:36get your house

00:18:37in order first.

00:18:39Stellar has standards.

00:18:40We don't partner

00:18:41with 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

00:18:49on the line

00:18:49and you swoop

00:18:50in to cover for him.

00:18:51You know,

00:18:51I just hope

00:18:52that your father

00:18:53and your grandfather

00:18:53are as generous

00:18:54as you are.

00:18:57Whether her father

00:18:58or Chairman Harper

00:18:58approve

00:18:59is none of your

00:18:59goddamn business.

00:19:01We don't need someone

00:19:02like you

00:19:02worrying about it.

00:19:03He's right.

00:19:05Juliana,

00:19:06I give you my word.

00:19:07The full amount

00:19:08will be paid

00:19:08within three days,

00:19:09but under one condition.

00:19:11Our engagement

00:19:12ends for good

00:19:13and you

00:19:14will leave

00:19:15Harper Enterprise

00:19:16now.

00:19:17You hear that, Julie?

00:19:19You know,

00:19:19I'll admit it.

00:19:20Yeah, you got the money,

00:19:21but it's not about

00:19:21what you made.

00:19:22It's your family's

00:19:23fucking money

00:19:23and now you're just

00:19:24a spoiled little

00:19:24trust fund baby

00:19:25who's been fired.

00:19:26So get the fuck out!

00:19:28Get the fuck out?

00:19:31One of us

00:19:32just torpedoed

00:19:33a hundred million dollar loan

00:19:34and a three hundred

00:19:35million dollar deal.

00:19:36Remind me,

00:19:36which one of us

00:19:37should actually

00:19:38get the fuck out?

00:19:40Serena,

00:19:40I think it is actually

00:19:41time to call

00:19:41your grandfather.

00:19:42He could definitely

00:19:43settle all of this.

00:19:47Stop!

00:19:53This boy toy

00:19:53thinks he has

00:19:54the fucking right

00:19:55to call Chairman Harper.

00:19:56Who gives you

00:19:57the goddamn right?

00:20:00Funny.

00:20:01Guy hides behind

00:20:02a woman to pay

00:20:03his bill.

00:20:04Remind me,

00:20:04which one of us

00:20:05is the real boy toy.

00:20:08You.

00:20:18Get the fuck out!

00:20:20Julian,

00:20:21I don't care

00:20:21what kind of connections

00:20:22you think you have.

00:20:23This is Harper Enterprise.

00:20:26I'm the one

00:20:26in charge here.

00:20:28Security,

00:20:29remove him.

00:20:31No.

00:20:33Julian,

00:20:34please,

00:20:34don't make us

00:20:35get physical.

00:20:36I'm the one

00:20:36Chairman Harper

00:20:37personally brought in.

00:20:38You really want

00:20:38to lay hands on me?

00:20:41Chairman Harper

00:20:41brought you in?

00:20:43Julian,

00:20:43have you lost

00:20:43your fucking mind?

00:20:46Who do you think

00:20:46you are?

00:20:47You think

00:20:47you're fucking worth it?

00:20:49Julian,

00:20:49I've already given

00:20:50you more courtesy

00:20:51than you deserve.

00:20:52The more you cling

00:20:52on like this,

00:20:53the more disgusting

00:20:54you become to me.

00:20:57Do it.

00:21:00Looks like

00:21:01I don't need

00:21:01that phone call.

00:21:02Still running

00:21:02your mouth,

00:21:03huh?

00:21:04Move.

00:21:04Get me the fuck

00:21:15All of you!

00:21:16You!

00:21:18Dad?

00:21:19Grandpa?

00:21:20What are you doing

00:21:21here?

00:21:26Julian.

00:21:27I've been filled

00:21:28in on everything

00:21:29that's going on

00:21:30today.

00:21:31I know that

00:21:32you've been wronged

00:21:33by this guy.

00:21:36Please accept

00:21:37my apology

00:21:38for everything.

00:21:40Chairman Harper

00:21:41apologizing

00:21:42to Julian?

00:21:43Grandpa,

00:21:44what are you

00:21:45doing?

00:21:47Chairman Harper,

00:21:49he's a loser

00:21:49who's addicted

00:21:50to playing games.

00:21:51How could you

00:21:51possibly...

00:21:52Shut up!

00:22:00Serena?

00:22:01How dare you

00:22:02disrespect Julian!

00:22:04Dad, I don't care

00:22:04what kind of background

00:22:05Julian has.

00:22:06You can't just hit people!

00:22:07I wish we hit him more.

00:22:09Serena,

00:22:10do you even have

00:22:11any idea

00:22:12who Julian Clark is?

00:22:14We didn't tell you

00:22:15everything because

00:22:15of your ego.

00:22:16And I didn't want

00:22:17to hurt your feelings.

00:22:18We were going to

00:22:19announce everything

00:22:19once the engagement

00:22:20was formally set.

00:22:22But who knew?

00:22:23Serena,

00:22:24you've been blind.

00:22:26Julian is...

00:22:27Thomas,

00:22:27you can't force

00:22:28something that isn't there.

00:22:29No real feelings,

00:22:30no need to go forward

00:22:31with the engagement.

00:22:33Julian,

00:22:33please,

00:22:34understand,

00:22:35all of this is on us.

00:22:37Everything that's

00:22:38happened here today

00:22:39is the fault

00:22:39of the Harper family.

00:22:41Give me a chance

00:22:42to make it right.

00:22:48Apologize to Julian,

00:22:49now!

00:22:49No!

00:22:50I don't care

00:22:51who you are,

00:22:52Julian.

00:22:53To me,

00:22:54you're still

00:22:54just a spoiled brat

00:22:56who thinks of himself

00:22:57as some sort

00:22:58of genius.

00:22:58But in reality,

00:23:00all you know

00:23:01is playing video games.

00:23:03I see right

00:23:05through you,

00:23:05and I will not

00:23:06apologize to you!

00:23:08Serena,

00:23:09enough!

00:23:10Julian,

00:23:10she's just being foolish.

00:23:11Let me apologize.

00:23:13Save it.

00:23:14If Serena

00:23:15can't manage

00:23:16an apology herself,

00:23:17then I have no reason

00:23:18to protect this company

00:23:19anymore.

00:23:21issue my order.

00:23:23Suspend all support

00:23:24for Harper Enterprise.

00:23:26Cease every protective measure

00:23:27effective immediately.

00:23:29Julian,

00:23:29please,

00:23:30don't.

00:23:30Without you,

00:23:31this place doesn't survive.

00:23:33Look!

00:23:41I guess you would've just

00:23:43pulled their orders.

00:23:44What do you mean?

00:23:45Hostile takeover.

00:23:46All of our investors

00:23:47pulled out.

00:23:48How can that be?

00:23:53Harper Enterprise stock

00:23:54plunges 30% in minutes,

00:23:56wiping out billions

00:23:57in market value.

00:23:58What?

00:23:59My entire division

00:24:00just stopped.

00:24:01We can't operate

00:24:01like this.

00:24:02A stunning reversal.

00:24:04Harper Enterprise's

00:24:05many allies

00:24:06withdraw their investments

00:24:07in an instant,

00:24:08leaving the group

00:24:09facing massive losses.

00:24:10Could it be

00:24:11all these months

00:24:12the company's been

00:24:13supported by Julian?

00:24:15Shocking Wall Street.

00:24:17Why did Harper

00:24:17Enterprise's

00:24:18suddenly lose power?

00:24:20What caused them

00:24:21to lose their backing?

00:24:23How is that possible?

00:24:25Are you attacking

00:24:26the company?

00:24:27No matter who

00:24:28is behind this,

00:24:29I, Serena,

00:24:29will never

00:24:30bow down to you.

00:24:34Harper Enterprise

00:24:35will not yield

00:24:36to any market attacks,

00:24:37do whatever it takes

00:24:38to stabilize the stocks.

00:24:39Harper,

00:24:40this isn't a race.

00:24:41Our major partners

00:24:42are terminating

00:24:43their contracts,

00:24:44and our own liquidity

00:24:45can't cover the gas.

00:24:47If it's continuous,

00:24:48the stocks will crash

00:24:49straight through the floor.

00:24:51What did you say?

00:24:52Damn it.

00:24:54How could that trash

00:24:55have such kind of power?

00:24:57Why him?

00:24:57I won't accept this.

00:24:58I won't.

00:24:59Serena,

00:25:00how can you stand there

00:25:01and watch Harper Enterprises

00:25:03burn to the ground

00:25:04around your feet?

00:25:05Apologize to Julian.

00:25:07No!

00:25:11Serena,

00:25:12apologize.

00:25:14Serena.

00:25:26Serena,

00:25:27do not apologize.

00:25:28Harper Enterprises

00:25:29is worth hundreds

00:25:29of billions of dollars.

00:25:31You really think

00:25:32we can't survive

00:25:32without him?

00:25:33Let's just get through

00:25:34this crisis,

00:25:35and I swear

00:25:35I will make him pay

00:25:36for everything

00:25:37that he has done to you.

00:25:39Oh,

00:25:39fucking hell!

00:25:40Oh!

00:25:42No,

00:25:43your fucking fault.

00:25:44You apologize

00:25:44to Julian right now

00:25:46and get on your n-

00:25:47Dad!

00:25:49Damien!

00:25:50Damien!

00:25:51Dad,

00:25:52stop!

00:25:52Damien has only ever

00:25:53stood up for me.

00:25:54He is the only one

00:25:55who actually cares about me,

00:25:56and I won't let you

00:25:57trade him like this.

00:25:58Stay out of the way.

00:25:59No!

00:26:00You're really gonna go

00:26:01to war with Julian

00:26:02over this snake?

00:26:04Do you even have

00:26:05any idea

00:26:06who he really is?

00:26:07Whoever he is,

00:26:08it doesn't give him

00:26:08the right to just

00:26:09bully people like this.

00:26:10I cannot stand

00:26:12bullies who throw

00:26:13their weight around,

00:26:14and today that is

00:26:15exactly what you

00:26:16look like to me.

00:26:17Serena,

00:26:18that is enough.

00:26:18You hate bullies

00:26:19who throw their weight

00:26:20around, right?

00:26:21What about this guy?

00:26:22What about him?

00:26:23He hides behind your name

00:26:25to steal other people's work.

00:26:26He throws tea on me

00:26:27in this very room.

00:26:28He squeezes a million

00:26:29dollars out of me

00:26:30just for a $100,000 watch.

00:26:32Don't you think

00:26:32that's bullying?

00:26:34Oh, I...

00:26:36But you hate bullies,

00:26:38right?

00:26:39Yeah, you're no saint.

00:26:41You're just biased.

00:26:44You know, I've been

00:26:44engaged to you

00:26:45for the past six months.

00:26:47I have asked you out

00:26:4737 times.

00:26:50You know, because I thought

00:26:50we should at least

00:26:51get to know each other.

00:26:52Every time I have

00:26:53asked you out,

00:26:54you said,

00:26:54I'm too busy with work.

00:26:56But that wasn't the truth.

00:26:58The truth is,

00:26:59is that you were

00:27:00too busy dating

00:27:00this sycophant.

00:27:01Listen to him

00:27:02and sing your praises,

00:27:03right?

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

00:27:15your fiancé?

00:27:17Is it okay

00:27:18you still keep

00:27:18blowing him off?

00:27:21I just...

00:27:21I can't stand him.

00:27:23A spoiled heir

00:27:24who thinks the world

00:27:25revolves around him?

00:27:28So what

00:27:29if I did?

00:27:30Who I choose

00:27:31to hang out with

00:27:32is my own choice.

00:27:33We're engaged,

00:27:34not married.

00:27:35I can see

00:27:36whoever I want.

00:27:38Serena,

00:27:39shut up.

00:27:40No, I am not done.

00:27:42Damien

00:27:42has worked himself

00:27:44to the bone.

00:27:45He is driven

00:27:46and disciplined

00:27:47and when Harper

00:27:48first went public,

00:27:49he was a key reason

00:27:50that we made it.

00:27:51If you had even

00:27:52half his talent, Julian,

00:27:54maybe I would have

00:27:55said yes to you once.

00:27:57But you don't.

00:28:01Damien was a key reason

00:28:02you made it.

00:28:03That's your story, right?

00:28:04What is so funny?

00:28:06I mean,

00:28:06I'm laughing at

00:28:07just how foolish you are.

00:28:09Do you know why

00:28:10for the past six months

00:28:12all of your proposals

00:28:13have sailed through?

00:28:14Why every deal

00:28:15that you like

00:28:16happened to have closed?

00:28:17Why every time

00:28:18that you wanted a loan,

00:28:19the banks rolled out

00:28:20a special fast track

00:28:21for you.

00:28:22Because Damien

00:28:22is brilliant.

00:28:23Because he has cleared

00:28:25every obstacle

00:28:26in my way.

00:28:26Damien?

00:28:27Brilliant?

00:28:28That was Julian.

00:28:31Julian is the one

00:28:32who quietly has held

00:28:33his entire thing together.

00:28:35Serena.

00:28:37No,

00:28:37that is impossible.

00:28:39I don't believe it.

00:28:45I don't believe it.

00:28:49Hey.

00:28:51Eyes up, Serena.

00:28:52In the past six months,

00:28:53I've called in

00:28:5447 separate connections

00:28:55and cleared a path for you.

00:28:56Oh,

00:28:57I put Harper Enterprise

00:28:57on the exchange.

00:28:58And you know,

00:28:59I made you

00:29:00Wall Street's business queen.

00:29:01That's Iron Gate,

00:29:02North Bridge,

00:29:03and even Silver Line.

00:29:05Those are all

00:29:05the top 50 global giants.

00:29:07They've all been

00:29:07backing us

00:29:08behind the scenes?

00:29:09No wonder

00:29:09every project

00:29:10went so smoothly.

00:29:11Julian is the one

00:29:12with this kind of network.

00:29:13Damien's got some nerve

00:29:15stealing credit

00:29:15for something like this.

00:29:16That's a death wish.

00:29:21No,

00:29:22no,

00:29:22no.

00:29:22It's not true,

00:29:23huh?

00:29:24Harper Enterprise

00:29:24is what it is

00:29:25because of me

00:29:26and my hard work

00:29:27and my connections.

00:29:28You arrogant fool.

00:29:31Did you think

00:29:32you could step in here

00:29:33and steal credit

00:29:33from everything?

00:29:40All right,

00:29:41that's enough.

00:29:43I finally got the

00:29:44all clear for my grandfather

00:29:45and I can go home.

00:29:46So as of right now,

00:29:48our engagement

00:29:48is terminated.

00:29:50Julian,

00:29:51all of this

00:29:51has been our fault.

00:29:52But the engagement...

00:29:54Let him go.

00:29:55I don't need a fiancé

00:29:56who uses his family

00:29:57background to wreck people.

00:30:01Without my connections

00:30:02and my network,

00:30:04Harper Enterprise's

00:30:05stock is going

00:30:05to keep falling.

00:30:06It's going to go

00:30:07right back to where

00:30:08it was six months ago.

00:30:10Wait, what?

00:30:11You're just kidding.

00:30:12Come on.

00:30:13Prepare yourselves.

00:30:15Julian.

00:30:16Julian.

00:30:16Stop it.

00:30:17Julian.

00:30:20Serena.

00:30:22You silly,

00:30:23foolish,

00:30:24foolish girl.

00:30:25Grandpa,

00:30:25I have never

00:30:27been clearer

00:30:28with or without him.

00:30:29I will lead

00:30:30Harper Enterprise

00:30:30back to the top.

00:30:31Serena's right.

00:30:32Mr. Harper,

00:30:33Chairman Harper,

00:30:34I'm going to stand

00:30:35by Serena's side

00:30:35and I'm going to give

00:30:36her everything

00:30:37that I've got.

00:30:38Crap.

00:30:39I'm going to beat

00:30:40the crap out of you

00:30:40once and for all.

00:30:43Dad,

00:30:43that is enough.

00:30:45Dad,

00:30:46Grandpa,

00:30:48I know you have

00:30:49your issues with Damien,

00:30:50but I believe

00:30:51he will prove himself

00:30:52to you

00:30:53and so will I.

00:30:56I will show

00:30:57everyone here

00:30:57that what Harper

00:30:58achieved over the past

00:30:59six months

00:30:59was my work.

00:31:00It has nothing

00:31:02to do with Julian.

00:31:04This meeting is over.

00:31:06Serena,

00:31:07wait up.

00:31:08You.

00:31:09God.

00:31:10Tell me what to do

00:31:11with this reckless

00:31:12granddaughter.

00:31:17Serena.

00:31:18Serena.

00:31:19Don't even worry

00:31:20about that.

00:31:20I know our enterprise

00:31:21took a huge hit today,

00:31:22but as long as we

00:31:23lock down Amber Group's

00:31:24Crescent Lake project,

00:31:25change the game,

00:31:26and everyone will still

00:31:27think that we're

00:31:27in control.

00:31:28Easy.

00:31:30The $3 billion

00:31:31Crescent Lake project.

00:31:33If we can win

00:31:34that contract,

00:31:35we can wipe all

00:31:36the problems

00:31:36we've been facing.

00:31:38Damien,

00:31:39you've secured

00:31:40several of Amber Group's

00:31:41projects before,

00:31:42and I'm going to put

00:31:43this one in your hands,

00:31:44too.

00:31:44It's not going to be

00:31:45a problem, right?

00:31:46No, no, absolutely.

00:31:47You're going to count

00:31:47on me.

00:31:48Amber Group's

00:31:49deputy VP of projects.

00:31:51I mean,

00:31:51you trust me?

00:31:52Really?

00:31:53He else has been

00:31:54his arms.

00:32:02Get the Crescent Lake

00:32:03contract ready.

00:32:04Same as always.

00:32:06Once the Harper team

00:32:06arrives,

00:32:07we hand it straight

00:32:08to them.

00:32:09Miss Lawson,

00:32:09we just got an update.

00:32:10Julian Clark has been

00:32:11kicked out of Harper

00:32:12Enterprise.

00:32:13The engagement is off.

00:32:14Serena fired him

00:32:15and ended it.

00:32:18Are you sure?

00:32:20Absolutely.

00:32:21Word is,

00:32:22she listened to

00:32:23her assistant Damien

00:32:23who really stirred the pot,

00:32:25and then Serena

00:32:25personally pushed

00:32:26Julian out.

00:32:27Serena really thinks

00:32:28she got where she is

00:32:29because of Damien?

00:32:30That for your little

00:32:31lapdog?

00:32:32Then do we still

00:32:34hand the Crescent Lake

00:32:35project over

00:32:35to Harper Enterprise?

00:32:37Without Julian,

00:32:38Harper Enterprise

00:32:39really thinks

00:32:39it's worthy

00:32:40of Crescent Lake?

00:32:41Not a chance.

00:32:43Open it to public

00:32:44video.

00:32:44Yes, ma'am.

00:32:53Now that is

00:32:54an amazing shot,

00:32:55Mr. Brooks.

00:32:55Damien.

00:32:57Crescent Lake's

00:32:58public bid

00:32:58is coming up soon.

00:33:00How's Harper

00:33:01Enterprise looking?

00:33:16Damien?

00:33:16What does this mean,

00:33:18huh?

00:33:18Mr. Brooks,

00:33:19why don't you

00:33:19do yourself a favor

00:33:20and take a closer look?

00:33:23That's one million

00:33:24in clean crypto,

00:33:26untraceable.

00:33:27Harper Enterprise

00:33:28is totally prepared

00:33:30to take on

00:33:30Crescent Lake.

00:33:32We just need you

00:33:33to give us

00:33:34a little extra attention.

00:33:36Oh my, Damien.

00:33:37You're too kind.

00:33:39Sure,

00:33:40it's a public bidding

00:33:41on paper,

00:33:42but as long as I'm here,

00:33:44you've got nothing

00:33:45to worry about.

00:33:47Sit tight.

00:33:49Contract's yours.

00:33:52Miss Larson

00:33:53usually hands

00:33:54Harper Enterprises

00:33:55whatever they want anyway.

00:33:57Well,

00:33:58thank you very much,

00:33:59Mr. Brooks.

00:34:28Well,

00:34:28well,

00:34:30Brent's Jillian.

00:34:32All right,

00:34:33Serena kicked you out.

00:34:35Six months of hard work

00:34:37down the drain.

00:34:39What does that feel?

00:34:41Oh,

00:34:41I see.

00:34:42So you brought me

00:34:43to your party

00:34:44just to mock me

00:34:45a 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?

00:34:55Since

00:34:56your engagement

00:34:57is off,

00:34:58I was thinking,

00:35:00how about you

00:35:01consider me, huh?

00:35:05Guys like us,

00:35:06we don't get to

00:35:07escape alliances.

00:35:08Our families

00:35:09will bear us off

00:35:11either way,

00:35:11so

00:35:13why pick a stranger

00:35:14when there's

00:35:16someone who

00:35:17actually knows you?

00:35:19You see?

00:35:20childhood friends,

00:35:22same circles,

00:35:2515 years of school.

00:35:27We match.

00:35:29You know?

00:35:30We fit.

00:35:32Hang on.

00:35:34Nora,

00:35:34are you saying this

00:35:35because you're drunk,

00:35:36or do you...

00:35:46you don't have to

00:35:48answer me tonight,

00:35:49just think about it.

00:35:56OK.

00:36:02I'm not thinking

00:36:02I'm not...

00:36:03it's okay.

00:36:03Man,

00:36:05Just think about it.

00:36:07There is some

00:36:13on top of this

00:36:17here.

00:36:22I told you, I'm not drunk.

00:36:24All right, this one soon fell off.

00:36:27Oh, shit.

00:36:28I'm drunk.

00:36:31All right, this one soon fell 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 broke.

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 gonna sleep on its chest.

00:37:53And suffer, okay?

00:37:56If you push me,

00:37:57I will toss you into a little ice crusher.

00:38:04Please,

00:38:05just walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?

00:38:10Okay.

00:38:23Speak of the devil of all the times.

00:38:31You know, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.

00:38:34You know what I lost?

00:38:36Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.

00:38:39Oh, wait.

00:38:42Well, 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 better than Serena.

00:38:57How 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,

00:39:04she's nothing compared to Serena.

00:39:08Pouring herself out like this?

00:39:11It's me all take her.

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, you know.

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 gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena.

00:39:32You, you're just gonna 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,

00:40:03lost in herself.

00:40:06And if we do,

00:40:08I'll make sure we're going to go to brush.

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,

00:40:47I can do glassy.

00:40:48Okay.

00:40:49You can do glassy?

00:40:51Miss Lawson,

00:40:52it's an honor to see you here today.

00:40:59I'll let you get to it.

00:41:03Shall we?

00:41:09Julia.

00:41:21Julia.

00:41:25I'm surprised you showed up.

00:41:26You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?

00:41:30You know what?

00:41:32Mason Brooks,

00:41:33Amber Group's deputy VP of projects,

00:41:35already agreed to avoid the contract to Harper Enterprise.

00:41:39You can't win.

00:41:45I hear the Crescent Lake project is basically yours.

00:41:48Congratulations.

00:41:50Serena,

00:41:50you are the business queen of Wall Street,

00:41:52and with Damien backing you up,

00:41:54it's unstoppable.

00:41:55When the two of you take off,

00:41:56don't forget the little guys like us.

00:41:58Of course.

00:41:59You know,

00:41:59we're going to take care of you guys.

00:42:00Thank you so much.

00:42:08See that,

00:42:09Julian?

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,

00:42:18my Clark Group has deeper capital,

00:42:20better tech,

00:42:21and a stronger global record than Harper Enterprise.

00:42:24So,

00:42:24I'm just curious,

00:42:26why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?

00:42:28He recognizes Damien's talent,

00:42:30of course.

00:42:35I need to take this.

00:42:43Don't mind,

00:42:43Julian.

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,

00:43:13you want to understand the rules up top there,

00:43:15sweetheart.

00:43:16But hey,

00:43:17you're a very lovely,

00:43:19beautiful escort.

00:43:20Why don't you do us all a favor,

00:43:21get up on that stage,

00:43:22and give us a nice little poll show.

00:43:24Hey.

00:43:24Hey,

00:43:25I'm going to tell you,

00:43:26you want to know why I keep winning Amber Group deals.

00:43:30Because every time,

00:43:31I give Mason Brooks

00:43:32a nice little fortune.

00:43:36Capital technology.

00:43:39It's useless.

00:43:40Fucking trash.

00:43:43Mason Brooks,

00:43:43you'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?

00:43:54I don't know.

00:43:56Who gave you the fucking guts?

00:43:57It's adorable,

00:43:58no?

00:43:58Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.

00:44:02Anti-anti-anti-corruption?

00:44:04Hmm?

00:44:17What are you going to report,

00:44:18Mr. 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

00:44:28with one phone call.

00:44:32There he is.

00:44:33Mr. Brooks is here.

00:44:34You're finished.

00:44:37Mr. Brooks.

00:44:38What do you mean, my friend?

00:44:40There's a woman here.

00:44:41She says she's going to report to you.

00:44:42Come on, please.

00:44:43Teach her a lesson.

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

00:44:54like she's somebody.

00:44:55Like, how fucking ridiculous.

00:44:57What?

00:44:58What?

00:45:00This...

00:45:01This...

00:45:01This can't be...

00:45:05Go ahead.

00:45:06Laugh.

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 some gold-dicking whore.

00:45:14I mean, even if she rats you out,

00:45:15who'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...

00:45:32This 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 Nora Lawson?

00:45:48Amber'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

00:45:57the 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,

00:46:12they'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 Nora 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,

00:46:42so he thought that you and Julian

00:46:43were being inappropriate.

00:46:45But I'll make him apologize right now.

00:46:49He is blunt, yes.

00:46:51But his ability is exceptional.

00:46:55Please, give Harper Enterprise the contract,

00:46:58and I promise we will deliver results

00:47:00that satisfy you.

00:47:02Exceptional ability?

00:47:03Are you sure about that?

00:47:05Of course.

00:47:06If not, why would Mason Brooks

00:47:08have handed him so many contracts before?

00:47:12You're about to find out.

00:47:19Damien?

00:47:21What does she mean?

00:47:23Oh, shit.

00:47:24I can't let her find out

00:47:25I secured every project right.

00:47:27She's upset because I mistook her for a whore.

00:47:29So she wants revenge.

00:47:31So she's going to embarrass Harper Enterprise

00:47:33in front of everyone.

00:47:34So what we need to do is

00:47:35we need to get out of here now.

00:47:36Let's go.

00:47:36Go?

00:47:38If we don't win Crescent Lake,

00:47:40Harper Enterprise is finished.

00:47:42Even if Miss Lawson is trying to punish us,

00:47:45we 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,

00:47:52the biggest ones,

00:47:52but 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

00:48:12on top of 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

00:48:24a nice little favor,

00:48:25get up on that stage,

00:48:26give us a nice little poll show.

00:48:31Who is that?

00:48:32He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?

00:48:36That's Damien Blackwell,

00:48:37Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.

00:48:39How do you not know him?

00:48:40All of the best Amber projects

00:48:41being sent to Harper Enterprise

00:48:43over 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...

00:48:52Just don't believe it.

00:48:52I...

00:48:53Just turn it up.

00:48:53Turn it up right now!

00:48:54Stop him!

00:48:57Not calling me!

00:48:59Damien, you did this behind my back?

00:49:01This is your talent?

00:49:03Your ability?

00:49:04What has to do in a place you see?

00:49:06Mr. Brooks' assistant?

00:49:08What a fucking ridiculous thing to say.

00:49:10Who are you to say anything?

00:49:11What do you think,

00:49:12your Amber group CEO?

00:49:14Amber.

00:49:16Turn it off, please.

00:49:17Okay?

00:49:18Okay, Ms. Lawson,

00:49:19please just turn it off.

00:49:20Just...

00:49:20Please stop it!

00:49:21Please!

00:49:22Please!

00:49:24Bribery is one thing,

00:49:25but mistaking Ms. Lawson

00:49:27for 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

00:49:34that Mason Brooks took money.

00:49:36Genius.

00:49:37And Serena trusted him

00:49:38to be her assistant?

00:49:39I mean, what does that say

00:49:40about her judgment?

00:49:42Damien,

00:49:42you have disappointed me

00:49:45beyond words.

00:49:46Serena,

00:49:47I did it because I care about you.

00:49:48Because I care about Harper Enterprise.

00:49:50Please, I'm...

00:49:50You told you the truth.

00:49:52Enough.

00:49:53Everyone has seen enough.

00:49:55Mason Brooks,

00:49:56you're fired.

00:49:58Effective immediately.

00:50:00I'm done.

00:50:02The Crescent Lake Project.

00:50:05Harper Enterprise

00:50:06is disqualified.

00:50:08Every single project

00:50:09Amber Group has done together

00:50:11with them

00:50:11will be suspended.

00:50:13The projects will be back

00:50:14for competitive bidding.

00:50:17No, no,

00:50:18you can't do that.

00:50:20Those projects are our next

00:50:21three years.

00:50:22They affect thousands

00:50:23of employees.

00:50:24Their lives are future.

00:50:26And why am the person

00:50:27who hired Trash

00:50:28and 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

00:51:01in front of a lot of people.

00:51:03Asking for dinner

00:51:04isn'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,

00:51:18Damien was wrong

00:51:19to bribe anyone

00:51:20and I apologize

00:51:21on his behalf.

00:51:23Just, please,

00:51:25give Harper Enterprise

00:51:27another chance.

00:51:28I will meet

00:51:29the highest standards.

00:51:30I will deliver

00:51:31a perfect result

00:51:32on every project.

00:51:34Perfect result?

00:51:35And what exactly

00:51:37guarantees that?

00:51:38Your empty suit assistant?

00:51:40Miss Lawson,

00:51:42Damien made a mistake.

00:51:45But his ability

00:51:46is exceptional.

00:51:48For six months,

00:51:50he managed

00:51:50every Harper Enterprise

00:51:51project flawlessly.

00:51:53No errors,

00:51:53no delays.

00:51:54If you don't pull

00:51:55this contract,

00:51:56I guarantee

00:51:57he will make sure

00:51:59you see his value.

00:52:03Managed flawlessly?

00:52:04He's not the only

00:52:05empty suit here.

00:52:07Year or two.

00:52:09Miss Lawson,

00:52:10you are crossing

00:52:11a line.

00:52:14I understand that

00:52:15you and Julian

00:52:17are close

00:52:18and you want to

00:52:18get back at me

00:52:19for him.

00:52:20But humiliating

00:52:21someone like this,

00:52:22isn't that a little cruel?

00:52:23You really think

00:52:24I froze our cooperation

00:52:26because Damien

00:52:27and Bribe Mason?

00:52:28Wasn't that the reason?

00:52:30For six months,

00:52:32Harper Enterprise

00:52:34got everything

00:52:35it wanted

00:52:36from Ember Group.

00:52:37for one reason.

00:52:39Julian Clark.

00:52:41Damien

00:52:42has nothing

00:52:43to do with that.

00:52:45He was just

00:52:45a messenger boy

00:52:46who picked up

00:52:47the contracts.

00:52:48What?

00:52:49When Julian

00:52:50was there,

00:52:51bribe or no bribe,

00:52:52Harper Enterprise

00:52:53got the deals

00:52:54anyway.

00:52:55But now,

00:52:56Julian's gone,

00:52:58so the special

00:52:59treatment is gone.

00:53:00Damien's little

00:53:01arriving incident,

00:53:03it was just

00:53:03a convenient excuse

00:53:04to take everything

00:53:05back.

00:53:06Understand now?

00:53:11And about those

00:53:12flawless projects,

00:53:14Harper Enterprise

00:53:15didn't run smoothly

00:53:16because Damien

00:53:17is brilliant.

00:53:19It ran smoothly

00:53:20because Julian

00:53:21called every partner,

00:53:23every supplier,

00:53:24every gatekeeper

00:53:25and cleared

00:53:26the path for you.

00:53:27Damien had nothing

00:53:29to do with that.

00:53:31No.

00:53:34That's not true.

00:53:35I don't believe

00:53:36that you...

00:53:36You don't believe me?

00:53:38Then watch.

00:53:39Watch what happens

00:53:41when Julian leaves.

00:53:43Let's see

00:53:44if your exceptional

00:53:44Damien can keep

00:53:45everything perfect

00:53:47when Julian is not

00:53:48there to hold

00:53:49the world together

00:53:50for you.

00:53:52Come on,

00:53:53let's go.

00:53:59Julian,

00:54:01is what she's saying

00:54:02true?

00:54:04You were right

00:54:05about one thing,

00:54:05Serena.

00:54:06Julian and I

00:54:07are closer

00:54:08than you thought.

00:54:09That's why it disgusts

00:54:10me watching him

00:54:11waste his life away

00:54:13on a selfish

00:54:14and blind woman

00:54:15like you.

00:54:20Was I wrong?

00:54:21No, no, no,

00:54:22Serena, Serena,

00:54:22do not listen

00:54:23to her nonsense.

00:54:24Harper's success

00:54:25is based off

00:54:26of my hard work.

00:54:28Okay,

00:54:28Nora Lawson,

00:54:28she's just,

00:54:29she's attacking

00:54:30and slandering

00:54:31my name

00:54:31to defend.

00:54:32Julian,

00:54:33you have to believe me.

00:54:34Please,

00:54:34you have to understand.

00:54:35Because of you,

00:54:37Crescent Lake

00:54:37is gone.

00:54:38Every Amber project

00:54:40is gone.

00:54:41Harper Enterprise

00:54:42is on the edge

00:54:43of collapse

00:54:44and you're asking

00:54:45me to trust you?

00:54:46How?

00:54:47Tell me how.

00:54:49Please,

00:54:50just listen to me.

00:54:51Okay, yeah,

00:54:52we lost Amber Group

00:54:52but we're not finished.

00:54:55I mean,

00:54:55we still have the partners

00:54:56and the CEOs.

00:54:57I mean,

00:54:57they love me.

00:54:57They absolutely love

00:54:58and adore me.

00:55:00I promise.

00:55:01You know what?

00:55:01Matter of fact,

00:55:02I'm going to call

00:55:03and I'm going to get you

00:55:03some new projects

00:55:04right now.

00:55:08Hello,

00:55:09Mr. Foster.

00:55:10It's Damien here.

00:55:10I hear the Grandview Plaza

00:55:12is taking bids

00:55:13and Harper Enterprise,

00:55:15you know,

00:55:15we would absolutely love.

00:55:17Harper Enterprise,

00:55:18who the hell is that?

00:55:19Do you think you're even

00:55:20in the same league

00:55:21as Grandview Plaza?

00:55:22Uh,

00:55:24Mr. Foster,

00:55:25what do you mean?

00:55:28Last time we spoke

00:55:28you said

00:55:29that you believed

00:55:30in the Harper Enterprise

00:55:31and that you would love

00:55:32to work together.

00:55:33Listen up.

00:55:34That's because Julian Clark

00:55:35was in your damn enterprise.

00:55:37I was giving him respect.

00:55:39You don't flatter yourself

00:55:41once you're blind dumbasses.

00:55:43Call me again

00:55:44and I'll block

00:55:44your fucking number.

00:55:46So what really was Julian?

00:55:48No, no.

00:55:48That's not possible.

00:55:50I don't believe that.

00:55:52I don't.

00:55:53Hello,

00:55:53Mr. Parker.

00:55:54It's Damien.

00:55:54I was hoping to talk

00:55:55about future collaborations.

00:55:57Damien?

00:55:58You've got the fucking nerve

00:55:59to call me?

00:56:00I gave Harper Enterprise

00:56:02projects because of

00:56:03Mr. Clark

00:56:04and then you turned around

00:56:05and claimed

00:56:06you closed the deal?

00:56:07Who gave you

00:56:08the audacity?

00:56:10Shameless trash?

00:56:14Mr. Parker.

00:56:16Mr. Parker.

00:56:17No.

00:56:17God damn it!

00:56:19No, no.

00:56:20I don't believe this.

00:56:21I don't believe this.

00:56:22Fucking Julian

00:56:23this whole fucking time.

00:56:24God damn it.

00:56:26Sorry.

00:56:27Sorry.

00:56:27Um, hello?

00:56:29Mr. Turner.

00:56:30It'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

00:56:40to tolerate you

00:56:40playing sideman

00:56:41with his fiancée.

00:56:42I'm not.

00:56:43You bastard too.

00:56:45Mr. Turner?

00:56:47Mr. Turner, please.

00:56:51What the fuck is happening?

00:56:59Miss Harper?

00:57:00This is bad.

00:57:02Our partners are flooding us

00:57:03with messages.

00:57:04They're suspending contracts,

00:57:05pulling out a deal.

00:57:06Wait, what is happening?

00:57:08They said before

00:57:09they only worked

00:57:10with Harper Enterprise

00:57:11because Julian Clark

00:57:12backed us.

00:57:13Now that he's gone,

00:57:13they don't trust us

00:57:14with their project.

00:57:16Julian.

00:57:18It's Julian again.

00:57:23It's true.

00:57:25They only gave us deals

00:57:27because of Julian.

00:57:29Julian!

00:57:30No, no, no, no.

00:57:31Sweeney, please.

00:57:31Okay?

00:57:32They're just saying that

00:57:33because Julian

00:57:34has been paying them off.

00:57:35Think about it.

00:57:35Okay?

00:57:36You know what?

00:57:36Just give you some time

00:57:37and I'll get you

00:57:38some new projects.

00:57:39I'll get you some new projects.

00:57:40I swear.

00:57:41Get away from me!

00:57:44You liar!

00:57:45You fraud, Damien!

00:57:46All those CEOs!

00:57:49They only had you pick up contracts

00:57:51from them

00:57:52and you told me

00:57:53you negotiated the deals.

00:57:55I swear,

00:57:56I didn't know

00:57:57that they would.

00:58:00Get out of my sight.

00:58:02Shh!

00:58:03Now!

00:58:22I was this close to locking Serena down,

00:58:25stepping into the upper circle.

00:58:26I'm not letting it end like this.

00:58:33Serena, you really thought you were smart.

00:58:37But you're really just pathetic trash.

00:58:42Without Julian, you're nothing.

00:58:55Dad warned you.

00:58:57Grandpa warned you.

00:58:58And you still wouldn't listen.

00:59:04You ignored everything Julian did

00:59:06and worshipped

00:59:07a con artist like Damien.

00:59:13Stupid.

00:59:21And now look at you.

00:59:25Projects gone.

00:59:28Company collapsing.

00:59:31Idiot.

00:59:33You arrogant.

00:59:34Stupid.

00:59:36Idiot.

00:59:38I'm so stupid.

00:59:44Julian, I'm sorry.

00:59:53I'm so sorry.

00:59:55I'm so sorry.

00:59:58I know I messed up.

01:00:07I know I messed up.

01:00:11Look,

01:00:12always damn Julian!

01:03:49we're not

01:03:51understood

01:03:53you

01:03:53I

01:03:54I

01:04:21I

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.

01:04:45Probably.

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

01:05:05and any man would have, you know,

01:05:08pounced me by 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

01:05:32into 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

01:05:46and he'll do whatever it takes

01:05:48to 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,

01:06:04if you'll marry me,

01:06:07my family won't dare object.

01:06:10Please,

01:06:11Julian.

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.

01:06:30I knew you wouldn't abandon me.

01:06:33But,

01:06:34can you

01:06:35help me out?

01:06:37Um,

01:06:37my hands are getting hurt.

01:06:40So impatient.

01:06:44It's like you said,

01:06:47if I accept the gift,

01:06:50then our engagement becomes official.

01:06:56Then be gentle.

01:07:05Julian,

01:07:06you

01:07:08didn't forget

01:07:09what you promised last night,

01:07:10right?

01:07:11Uh,

01:07:11no,

01:07:12because I actually wasn't drunk.

01:07:14Of course I remember that.

01:07:16You know,

01:07:16when someone wraps themselves

01:07:17as a gift,

01:07:18you kind of,

01:07:19you kind of remember that

01:07:20for the rest of your life.

01:07:21Details.

01:07:23Those are just

01:07:24tiny details.

01:07:27Look like big details to me.

01:07:31Julian,

01:07:34can I talk to you alone

01:07:35for a second?

01:07:37Serena,

01:07:37I really don't think

01:07:38there's anything

01:07:38we need to discuss.

01:07:39Julian,

01:07:39I was wrong.

01:07:40I never should have trusted Damien.

01:07:42I misjudged

01:07:43everything.

01:07:44Please,

01:07:45just give me one more chance

01:07:46and

01:07:47I'll honor the engagement.

01:07:48And if you take me back,

01:07:50just 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,

01:08:05you once said you hate

01:08:07arranged marriages.

01:08:08Well,

01:08:09Julian hates them too.

01:08:10And yet,

01:08:11he stayed at Harper Enterprise

01:08:12for six full months.

01:08:15He asked you out 37 times.

01:08:17So tell me,

01:08:18what exactly are you proud of?

01:08:20Hmm?

01:08:22Men like him?

01:08:25If you treat him like trash,

01:08:27someone else will treat him

01:08:28like treasure.

01:08:29Listen carefully.

01:08:30We are all together now,

01:08:32so

01:08:32better keep your distance.

01:08:34If you don't,

01:08:36I won't be so nice about it.

01:08:40Come on.

01:08:41We're trying on

01:08:42our 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,

01:09:09God.

01:09:12Nora.

01:09:13Nora Lawson,

01:09:15CEO of Amber Group.

01:09:17Of course.

01:09:18You know,

01:09:19Serena,

01:09:20it's an elite

01:09:20like Julian.

01:09:22The second

01:09:23you let go,

01:09:24somebody comes

01:09:25and grabs him.

01:09:26You don't get

01:09:27another chance.

01:09:28God gave our family

01:09:29a chance,

01:09:30and we blew it.

01:09:33God,

01:09:34forgive the Harpers.

01:09:35Please.

01:09:38Ms. Hopper,

01:09:39finance sent

01:09:40the latest reports.

01:09:41Hopper Enterprise's

01:09:42cash flow

01:09:43has collapsed.

01:09:44If we don't act

01:09:45immediately,

01:09:46we won't even have

01:09:47enough to make

01:09:47payroll this month.

01:09:50Great.

01:09:51Now all of

01:09:52Wall Street knows

01:09:53that we crossed Julian.

01:09:55That was going to

01:09:56lend to us now?

01:09:57How are we supposed

01:09:57to get financing?

01:09:58This is my fault,

01:10:00okay?

01:10:01I was blind.

01:10:02Are you proud now?

01:10:05I actually believed

01:10:06I was some

01:10:07business queen.

01:10:09I didn't realize

01:10:10that Julian

01:10:11was running

01:10:12everything,

01:10:13and the moment

01:10:13he's gone,

01:10:14I can't do anything.

01:10:17Dad,

01:10:19Grandpa,

01:10:20I'm so sorry.

01:10:21I ruined

01:10:22Harper Enterprise.

01:10:24I ruined everything.

01:10:26Dad,

01:10:28you're the one

01:10:28who arranged

01:10:29the engagement

01:10:29with Julian's

01:10:30grandfather,

01:10:31right?

01:10:32So maybe

01:10:32you should go

01:10:33talk to him

01:10:33and see if he'll

01:10:35give us a second chance.

01:10:37Yes,

01:10:37Grandpa.

01:10:38Julian listens

01:10:39to his grandfather.

01:10:41If we can get

01:10:42his acceptance

01:10:43and...

01:10:44Clark family

01:10:44isn't what it used

01:10:45to be.

01:10:47Yes,

01:10:48they honored

01:10:49our engagement,

01:10:51and that was a mercy.

01:10:53That was a blessing.

01:10:54But you

01:10:55threw it away.

01:10:59Still,

01:11:01for your sake

01:11:02and for your future,

01:11:03and for our future,

01:11:06we'll fight.

01:11:13Serena,

01:11:14when you see

01:11:15Julian's grandfather,

01:11:17your apology

01:11:18has to be

01:11:19sincere.

01:11:22If he forgives you,

01:11:24only then

01:11:25will you know

01:11:25that you have a chance

01:11:27to get Julian back.

01:11:29Understood, Grandpa.

01:11:31For the Harper family,

01:11:32I'll do whatever it takes.

01:11:47I'll do whatever it takes.

01:11:48Welcome!

01:11:50You must be here

01:11:51for Mr. Clark

01:11:52and Ms. Lawson's

01:11:53engagement party.

01:11:55Perfect timing.

01:11:56They're just about

01:11:57to start.

01:11:58Engagement party?

01:12:00So they're really

01:12:01engaged?

01:12:03How is this all

01:12:05happening so fast?

01:12:07What is this

01:12:08supposed to mean?

01:12:09Mr. Clark

01:12:10and Ms. Lawson

01:12:11have known each other

01:12:12since they were born,

01:12:13and everyone

01:12:13is so happy

01:12:15that they're finally

01:12:15getting married.

01:12:16Oh,

01:12:17oh,

01:12:18I see.

01:12:19You didn't come here

01:12:20to congratulate them,

01:12:21right?

01:12:22Then,

01:12:23please leave.

01:12:25Otherwise,

01:12:25I will have to

01:12:26call security.

01:12:32If there's

01:12:33an engagement party,

01:12:35that means

01:12:35Julian's grandfather

01:12:36has already approved

01:12:38of an engagement.

01:12:40And that means

01:12:42we're done.

01:12:44There's no more

01:12:45chances left.

01:12:46We're leaving.

01:12:48Is this my punishment?

01:12:52All right,

01:12:53everyone.

01:12:54Big smiles.

01:13:13What is it?

01:13:21Oh,

01:13:21it's nothing.

01:13:22Come on,

01:13:22dinner's almost ready.

01:13:37Dad,

01:13:38the Harpers.

01:13:40My grandson

01:13:42grew up with everything.

01:13:45For a young,

01:13:47six months

01:13:48at Harper Enterprise,

01:13:50it was a total

01:13:51humiliation.

01:13:53We've shown

01:13:54the Harper

01:13:54more mercy

01:13:55than he ever

01:13:56deserved.

01:13:59Understood, Dad.

01:14:08Okay,

01:14:09enough,

01:14:09Serena.

01:14:10Stop.

01:14:10You can't drink

01:14:11this away.

01:14:13Harper Enterprise

01:14:14is hanging on

01:14:15by a thread.

01:14:16If you don't get up,

01:14:17it's over.

01:14:19Just leave me

01:14:20the fuck alone.

01:14:21Okay?

01:14:22Just let me drink.

01:14:23I'm the fucking idiot

01:14:24who ruined everything.

01:14:25I wrecked Harper Enterprise.

01:14:27No,

01:14:27you...

01:14:30All right,

01:14:31I'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.

01:14:37All right.

01:14:40All right.

01:14:42All right.

01:14:45All right.

01:14:48Okay,

01:14:49Nora,

01:14:50be honest.

01:14:51You're moving

01:14:52insanely fast.

01:14:53You just got engaged,

01:14:55and you're getting

01:14:56married next week?

01:14:58Let's see.

01:14:59You've known Julian

01:15:00for 20-plus years.

01:15:02You couldn't wait

01:15:02a couple more months?

01:15:04I've liked Julian

01:15:04for 20 years,

01:15:06and I finally

01:15:07got him to say yes.

01:15:08You think I'm not

01:15:09going to lock it down now?

01:15:10Lock it down from what?

01:15:11From Harper Enterprise,

01:15:13of course.

01:15:13They're collapsing

01:15:15and treating Julian

01:15:16like 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

01:15:27were 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

01:15:36at Harper Enterprise

01:15:37for six months,

01:15:38and it wasn't just

01:15:39because his grandfather

01:15:40would order it.

01:15:41Then why?

01:15:44Because Serena

01:15:47is 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

01:16:00liked growing up?

01:16:02That exact type.

01:16:03I mean,

01:16:04with his personality,

01:16:06even if his grandfather

01:16:08forced him,

01:16:09he would have stayed there

01:16:09for three days max

01:16:10and then vanished.

01:16:11He would not

01:16:13stay there

01:16:14and take six months

01:16:15of humiliation

01:16:16if he didn't want it.

01:16:18That's

01:16:18Julian Clark.

01:16:20So that's why?

01:16:22Serena must have

01:16:23destroyed him.

01:16:23I have to

01:16:24get married

01:16:25fast.

01:16:26I cannot

01:16:27give her

01:16:27a single chance.

01:16:29So that's what it was.

01:16:31Julian stayed

01:16:31at Harper Enterprise

01:16:32for six months

01:16:33because I'm his type.

01:16:35He likes me!

01:16:36That means

01:16:37I 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,

01:16:59let's welcome

01:17:00the beautiful bride.

01:17:14Wow.

01:17:16together.

01:17:17They're childhood

01:17:18sweethearts.

01:17:19The whole fantasy.

01:17:20Oh my God,

01:17:21brilliant!

01:17:23And now

01:17:24for the exchange

01:17:24of rings.

01:17:38Wait!

01:17:45Serena,

01:17:45what are you doing

01:17:46here?

01:17:48Who is that?

01:17:49Is that

01:17:50Serena Harper,

01:17:51CEO of

01:17:52Harper Enterprise?

01:17:53You mean

01:17:53the woman

01:17:54who rode on

01:17:54Julian's back

01:17:56and then kicked

01:17:57him out

01:17:57nothing?

01:17:58Without

01:17:59Harper Enterprise

01:18:00is basically

01:20:47That is not

01:20:48true the

01:20:49night that

01:20:50you saved

01:20:50me from

01:20:52I...

01:20:54I felt

01:20:54something for

01:20:55you.

01:20:55I did...

01:20:56Stop.

01:20:57Do not

01:20:58my wedding.

01:20:59You don't

01:21:00regret hurting

01:21:01me.

01:21:01You regret

01:21:02choosing the

01:21:02wrong man.

01:21:03You regret

01:21:03that Harper

01:21:04Enterprise is

01:21:05dying.

01:21:06You know,

01:21:07I'll admit,

01:21:07when I met

01:21:08you,

01:21:09you were

01:21:10exactly my

01:21:10time.

01:21:12But once I

01:21:12got to know

01:21:13you,

01:21:13once I realized

01:21:14what you

01:21:15really are,

01:21:16all I felt

01:21:17was disgust.

01:21:19But Nora?

01:21:22She has

01:21:23cared for me

01:21:24since we

01:21:24were kids.

01:21:27When I was

01:21:28sick, she

01:21:29stayed up all

01:21:30night taking

01:21:30care of me.

01:21:32When I was

01:21:32at my lowest,

01:21:33she pulled me

01:21:34back up.

01:21:35Even when I

01:21:36went back to

01:21:36Harper Enterprise

01:21:37on the

01:21:37engagement,

01:21:39she still

01:21:40supported me.

01:21:41She still

01:21:42took hits

01:21:42from me.

01:21:46So, let me

01:21:47ask you,

01:21:49why would

01:21:49I give up

01:21:50all of that

01:21:50for you?

01:22:20she can't

01:22:21stay on top.

01:22:22She used

01:22:22Julian's feelings

01:22:23like a weapon.

01:22:24Totally

01:22:24vampire drained

01:22:25him dry.

01:22:26I'm

01:22:26trying.

01:22:48She's

01:22:49going to

01:22:50going to

01:22:50her.

01:23:14I'm sure you've all heard Harper Enterprise, effective today, has become a Clark Group

01:23:20subsidiary, so we're all being 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.

01:23:34Wow.

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.

01:23:46There are bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.

01:23:56Everyone of you does a file.

01:23:58So we're going to be passing out some resignation terms, and I want you to 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 now?

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?

01:25:18Take him to the police.

01:25:20Get the best of all your money can buy.

01:25:21I want him to ride in jail.

01:25:22Fucking coward!

01:25:23You're a fucking coward!

01:25:24Hiding behind your goddamn families, buddy!

01:25:26Now fight me!

01:25:27101!

01:25:28101!

01:25:28Let the guards go!

01:25:29You don't have the fucking guts, do you?

01:25:35Hey, Julian.

01:25:36What was that?

01:25:38Just staking out the trash.

01:25:41Are you done here?

01:25:43No.

01:25:44Let's go.

01:25:52I was wrong!

01:25:54Julian, I was wrong!
