Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over
00:00:11a billion dollars in argumentation.
00:00:23I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:25We 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 laughingstock of Wall Street.
00:00:36No, no, we're not finished. We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julia, we need you. Again. Shit. Shit.
00:00:55Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing? Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:12Julia, you saved my ass last time. I owe you. I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:19Great.
00:01:24The stock price is recovering. How is that possible?
00:01:27Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:31Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:34Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes. Chairman's orders.
00:01:42Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you. Watch your back.
00:01:47the master of his public.
00:02:14Today Damien successfully
00:02:17We eventually 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 know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:32He must have stole this win 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-
00:02:55Damien!
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:00Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:10Julian, the company just went through a crisis and you're up here, Damien?
00:03:15Pirate maybe?
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, let's start with a question.
00:03:44Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:46And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter.
00:03:51What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the 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...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:09Well...
00:04:10Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:11Alright.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room, the countermeasures for a potential
00:04:17proxy fight, or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:26You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees video.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:45You know what, Clark?
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.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:09I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:11Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:22You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:27Harper's, uh, old friends, good staff, you know?
00:05:31Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:34What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:36Feelings could grow, but our families go way better.
00:05:40Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life.
00:05:44My choice.
00:05:45Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that-
00:05:47Enough!
00:05:47Oh, that's it.
00:05:49You're going to do this.
00:05:51I've already arranged everything.
00:05:53You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:55Go work with Serena.
00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:01You refuse.
00:06:03You refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse.
00:06:06Dr. Ann.
00:06:06Check it out.
00:06:07My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:09What's the point?
00:06:09Okay.
00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:11Okay.
00:06:12Alright.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:15I know when I pass again.
00:06:17For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:21We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:23The Harper's, they're in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own.
00:06:29Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:31Enough.
00:06:34Please.
00:06:34For me.
00:06:36Fine.
00:06:37I'll do it.
00:06:39I hear you.
00:06:47For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using every resource, every contact,
00:06:52to help her.
00:06:53I 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.
00:06:59And for what?
00:07:01So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:06It's time to come home.
00:07:13You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:15So, pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my throat.
00:07:21I heard you.
00:07:22I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay, and then I'm gone.
00:07:25I said no!
00:07:26Or I'm gonna call security.
00:07:28I'm gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:31Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:36Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:39You will leave.
00:07:40Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:43Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it.
00:07:47And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:49You know what, Serena?
00:07:51Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:59You don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:03is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:06And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:09You're fucking nothing.
00:08:11You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your fiancé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:17So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking report what?
00:08:28You're broke.
00:08:29You're broke, Puppetee.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:33A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your core strength.
00:08:40Julian, that is enough.
00:08:42Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:43Assault?
00:08:44Destruction of property?
00:08:46As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:50Effective immediately.
00:08:51Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:53Serena, he broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday, he has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:59Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07Okay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What one hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:16It's priceless.
00:09:17A million dollars being generous.
00:09:18You could fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:20A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:23He does have a point card.
00:09:24You break it, you buy it.
00:09:27That's the rule.
00:09:28Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:36Well, you gonna wire me the money?
00:09:38Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:40And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:46So what if you're Serena's Beyonce?
00:09:49Look at her now.
00:09:50She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:54A million dollars.
00:09:56What's the final offer?
00:09:57What do you mean?
00:10:02Hi.
00:10:03I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:16I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:23You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next in a private army?
00:10:29All right, Julian.
00:10:30The charade ends now.
00:10:31Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:34But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:37We are done.
00:10:39You sure?
00:10:40Whoa, whoa.
00:10:41You heard that, Julian?
00:10:42Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I throw you-
00:10:45Get your hands off me!
00:10:49Put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:51You know what?
00:10:52I'm gonna wipe that smug-
00:10:53Fuckin' look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:03Mr. Brooks.
00:11:07That's David Brooks.
00:11:08President of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:12Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:13It can't be.
00:11:15That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:21The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:43What?
00:11:46Mr. Brooks.
00:11:47Personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To Julian?
00:11:50Wait, the money is-
00:11:52It's real?
00:11:53Wait, I-
00:11:53I-
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean-
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks.
00:12:10Sir.
00:12:11We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:14My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:16I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:20Mr. Clark.
00:12:22Is there anything else you require?
00:12:24My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:26No, thank you.
00:12:27You can go now.
00:12:28Of course.
00:12:36A company?
00:12:38Where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:41Unprofessional.
00:12:42I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:44We'll reassess when there's, uh, adult supervision.
00:12:48Yes, sir.
00:12:49Mr. Brooks, I-
00:12:53Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:55Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:57The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, alright?
00:13:01You gotta fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated or I swear I'm gonna-
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us...
00:13:11One million.
00:13:13In full.
00:13:14Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:20You arrogant.
00:13:22Son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:29I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:38The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:40But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:42That useless piece of junk?
00:13:43How much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:45Oh.
00:13:46I don't know, maybe about...
00:13:48A hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:56Have you lost your mind?
00:13:58A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian.
00:14:03The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:08That's illegal!
00:14:09So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:12By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:15Huh?
00:14:16That's a concern.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:22What, a stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:26A hundred million dollars?
00:14:27I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:30Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:32But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:34What is it made of gold?
00:14:35Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:38You know what?
00:14:40You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:49Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Bill Sullivan, SVP for Stellar.
00:14:54Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the $300 million partnership here?
00:14:56Three hundred million?
00:14:58That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:05What an unexpected honor.
00:15:07I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO.
00:15:09What do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark?
00:15:11The security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:15And the signal originated here.
00:15:16Be with concern for your safety and care immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine. It just took a fall.
00:15:31Mr. Sullivan.
00:15:31God, this damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate?
00:15:37This could be $30 million.
00:15:42$30 million?
00:15:43No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:48Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50I'll open your eyes. This is a one-off laptop with Stela's quantum processors and proprietary
00:15:55components. You better pray that those data partitions are intact or that compensation
00:15:59will ruin you. I just had the critical, critical data corruption here. It's highly confidential
00:16:05files, high market value. I mean, with our declarations, this is at least $70 million.
00:16:14That's $70 million. Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values
00:16:19to the security division. All damages to a fullest extent. Here. Receipts for the hardware
00:16:27and the notarized value declarations for the data. See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around a $100 million laptop?
00:16:45Who exactly are you? You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that cost $100 million. You know what? This
00:16:56is a fucking scam. These two, they're working together. I'm telling you, it's a con.
00:17:00Are you serious? I'm Blake Sullivan. I'm the senior vice president of Stela. I don't fly
00:17:05across the city a scam at nobody like you. Listen, I have someone. This Harper, this is
00:17:11the employee you hire. He's a fool. And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:16Oh, by the way, our partnership deal? Consider it terminated.
00:17:21What?
00:17:21What? Um, Mr. Sullivan, please. Damien is just... He's stressy. He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it. You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first. You, if you dispute evaluations, we can
00:17:34settle it in court. My legal team has 965 lawyers. I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Still, his legal team is legendary. He never lost. Damien can't fight this. Hell, the entire
00:17:49Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this. He's done for.
00:17:55So, may I help? Please.
00:18:02Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation. Will that suffice?
00:18:11I'm just here to certify facts. You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:18Full claim in. In my account, within three days. In that case, we're done here.
00:18:25Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else. I'll do it.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan, are our partners...
00:18:31Ms. Harper, get your house in order first. Stellar has standards. We don't partner with
00:18:37clown shows. That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40That was funny. Damien's lucky, huh? A hundred million on the line and you swoop in to cover for him.
00:18:47You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:51Mr. Sullivan. Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business.
00:18:56We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julianna, I give you my word. The full amount will be paid within three days, but under one condition.
00:19:06Our engagement ends for good. And you will leave Harper Enterprise. Now.
00:19:13You hear that, Julianna?
00:19:15You know, I'll admit it. Yeah, you got the money. But it's not about what you made. It's your family's
00:19:18fucking money.
00:19:19And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:22So get the fuck out!
00:19:24Get the fuck out?
00:19:26One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me, which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather. He could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:42Stop. Stop!
00:19:48This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper. Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:55Funny. Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:58Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:13Get the fuck out!
00:20:15Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:18This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:20I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:23Security, remove him.
00:20:28Julian, please.
00:20:29Don't make us get physical.
00:20:30I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in. You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:35Chairman Harper brought you in?
00:20:38Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think you are? You think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:47The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55Looks like I don't need that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:58Move. Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:05What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:07Here's my phone call.
00:21:09Stand down. All of you.
00:21:11You, out of here. Now.
00:21:13Dad, Grandpa, what are you doing here?
00:21:21Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's gone on today.
00:21:25I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:31Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:34Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:42Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:45How could you possibly?
00:21:47Shut up.
00:21:54How dare you disrespect Julian?
00:21:58Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has.
00:22:00You can't just hit people.
00:22:01I wish we hit him more.
00:22:03Serena, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't tell you everything because of your ego.
00:22:11And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:12We're going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:18Serena, you've been blind.
00:22:20Julian is...
00:22:21I can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:23No real feelings.
00:22:25No need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:27Julian, please, understand.
00:22:29All of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harperfin.
00:22:35Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:41Apologize to Julian, now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:47To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:57I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:23:02Serena, enough!
00:23:03Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Say that.
00:23:08If Serena can't manage an apology herself, then I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:15Issue my order.
00:23:17Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:20Cease every protective measure, effective immediately.
00:23:22Julian, please, don't.
00:23:24Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:33What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you could have just pulled the orders.
00:23:37What do you mean?
00:23:38Hostile takeover.
00:23:40All of our investors pulled out.
00:23:41How can that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52My entire division just stopped.
00:23:54We can't operate like this.
00:23:55A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant, leaving the group
00:24:02facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:10Why did Harper Enterprises suddenly lose power?
00:24:13What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:17How is that possible?
00:24:19Are you attacking the company?
00:24:21No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks.
00:24:30Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks.
00:24:32And Harper, this isn't a race.
00:24:34Our major partners are terminating their contracts.
00:24:37And our own liquidity can't cover the gas.
00:24:40If it's continuous, the stock will crash straight through the floor.
00:24:44What did you say?
00:24:46Damn it.
00:24:47How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:50Why him?
00:24:51I won't accept this.
00:24:52I won't.
00:24:52Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:59Apologize to Julian.
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena, apologize.
00:25:08Serena.
00:25:18Serena, Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:20Harper Enterprises worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:25:24You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:26Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:31to you.
00:25:32No!
00:25:33Oh!
00:25:35No, you're fucking fault.
00:25:36You apologize to Julian right now.
00:25:39Get on your knees!
00:25:40Dad!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:44Dad, stop!
00:25:45Damien has only ever stood up for me.
00:25:47He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you treat him like this.
00:25:50Stay out of the way.
00:25:52No!
00:25:53You really gonna go to war with Julian over this snake?
00:25:57Do you even have any idea who he really is?
00:26:00Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this.
00:26:03I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around.
00:26:07And today that is exactly what you look like to me.
00:26:10Serena, that is enough.
00:26:11Wait, you hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:14What about this guy?
00:26:15What about him?
00:26:16He hides behind your name to steal other people's work.
00:26:19He throws tea on me in this very room.
00:26:21He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a $100,000 wash.
00:26:24Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:27Oh, I...
00:26:29But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:32Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:34You're just biased.
00:26:36You know, I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:39I have asked you out 37 times.
00:26:42Because I thought we should at least get to know each other.
00:26:44Every time I have asked you out, you said,
00:26:47I'm too busy with work.
00:26:49But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:50The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:26:54Listen to him and sing your praises, right?
00:26:58Who's that?
00:26:59Oh, let me guess.
00:27:00Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:05Just ignore him.
00:27:06Is he still your fiancée?
00:27:09Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:13I just...
00:27:14I can't stand him.
00:27:15A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:20So what if I did?
00:27:22Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice.
00:27:25We're engaged, not married.
00:27:28I can see whoever I want.
00:27:30Serena, shut up.
00:27:32No, I am not done.
00:27:34Damien has worked himself to the bone.
00:27:37He is driven and disciplined.
00:27:39And when Harper first went public,
00:27:41he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:43If you had even half his talent, Julian,
00:27:46maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:49But you don't.
00:27:53Damien was a key reason you made it.
00:27:55That's your story, right?
00:27:56What is so funny?
00:27:57I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:28:01Do you know why, for the past six months,
00:28:04all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:06Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:09Why every time that you wanted a loan,
00:28:11the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:13Because Damien is brilliant.
00:28:15Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way.
00:28:18Damien?
00:28:19Brilliant?
00:28:20That was Julian.
00:28:23Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together.
00:28:27Serena.
00:28:28No, that is impossible.
00:28:31I don't believe it.
00:28:41Hey.
00:28:42Eyes up, Serena.
00:28:44In the past six months,
00:28:45I've called in 47 separate connections
00:28:47and cleared a path for you.
00:28:48Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange.
00:28:50And you know,
00:28:51I made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:53That's Iron Gate, North Bridge,
00:28:55and even Silver Line.
00:28:56Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:58They've all been backing us behind the scenes?
00:29:00No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian is the one with this kind of network.
00:29:05Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this.
00:29:08That's a death wish.
00:29:12No, no, no.
00:29:14It's not true, huh?
00:29:15Harper Enterprise is what it is
00:29:16because of me and my hard work and my connections.
00:29:19You period fool.
00:29:22Did you think you could step in here
00:29:24and steal credit from everything?
00:29:32All right, that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:36I can go home.
00:29:38So as of right now,
00:29:39our engagement is terminated.
00:29:41Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:44But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a fiancé
00:29:47who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections and my network,
00:29:55Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:57and he's going to go right back
00:29:58to where it was six months ago.
00:30:01Wait, wait, wait.
00:30:02What the hell?
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian.
00:30:07Julian.
00:30:08That's it.
00:30:08Julian.
00:30:11Serena.
00:30:13You silly, foolish, foolish girl.
00:30:16Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him,
00:30:20I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:23Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper,
00:30:25I'm going to stand by Serena's side
00:30:26and I'm going to give her everything
00:30:28that I've got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to beat the crap out of you
00:30:31once and for all.
00:30:33Dad, that is enough.
00:30:36Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you have your issues with Damien,
00:30:40but I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:43And so will I.
00:30:46I will show everyone here
00:30:48that what Harper achieved
00:30:49over the past six months
00:30:50was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:55This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena, wait up!
00:30:59Dude!
00:31:00Uh, tell me what to do
00:31:02with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:08Serena, Serena!
00:31:09Don't even worry about that.
00:31:11I know our Enterprise took a huge hit today,
00:31:12but as long as we lock down
00:31:14Amber Group's Crescent Lake project,
00:31:15change the game,
00:31:16and everyone will still think
00:31:18that we're in control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:24If we can win that contract,
00:31:26we can wipe all the problems
00:31:27we've been facing.
00:31:29Damien,
00:31:29you've secured several
00:31:31of Amber Group's projects before,
00:31:32and I'm going to put this one
00:31:34in your hands, too.
00:31:35It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:37No, no, absolutely.
00:31:37You can count on me.
00:31:39Amber Group's deputy VP of projects,
00:31:41and he trusts me completely.
00:31:44He else has been his eyes.
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:56Once the Harper team arrives,
00:31:57we hand it straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson,
00:31:59we just got an update.
00:32:00Julian Clark has been kicked
00:32:02out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she listened
00:32:12to her assistant Damien
00:32:13who really stirred the pot
00:32:14and then Serena
00:32:15personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks
00:32:18she got where she is
00:32:19because of Damien?
00:32:20That for you, little lap dog?
00:32:22Then do we still hand
00:32:24the Crescent Lake project
00:32:25over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:27Without Julian,
00:32:28Harper Enterprise really thinks
00:32:29it's worthy of Crescent Lake,
00:32:31not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to public bidding.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:43Now that is an amazing shot,
00:32:44Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien,
00:32:47Crescent Lake's public bid
00:32:48is coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:05Crescent Lake.
00:33:05Damien?
00:33:06What does this mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks,
00:33:08why don't you do yourself a favor
00:33:09and take a closer look?
00:33:13That's one million in clean
00:33:16crypto, untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise is totally prepared
00:33:19to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:21We just need you to give us
00:33:23a little extra attention.
00:33:26Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:29Sure, it's public bidding
00:33:31on paper, but
00:33:32as long as I'm here,
00:33:34you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:42Miss Larson usually hands
00:33:43Harper Enterprises
00:33:44whatever they want anyway.
00:33:46Well,
00:33:48thank you very much,
00:33:49Mr. Brooks.
00:34:17Well, well.
00:34:19friends, Jillian.
00:34:22All right, Serena kicked you out.
00:34:24Six months of hard work
00:34:26down the drain.
00:34:28What does that feel?
00:34:30Oh, I see.
00:34:31So you brought me to your party
00:34:33just to mock me a little bit.
00:34:34Is that right?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:37Not good.
00:34:39I'm here to steal you.
00:34:42You see,
00:34:43since your engagement
00:34:46is off,
00:34:47I was thinking,
00:34:49how about you consider
00:34:50me, huh?
00:34:54Guys like us,
00:34:55we don't get to escape alliances.
00:34:57Our families will
00:34:59bear us off either way,
00:35:00so
00:35:02why pick a stranger
00:35:03when there's someone
00:35:05who
00:35:05actually knows you?
00:35:08You see?
00:35:09Childhood friends,
00:35:11same circles,
00:35:1415 years of school.
00:35:16We match.
00:35:18You know?
00:35:20We fit.
00:35:22Hang on.
00:35:23Nora,
00:35:23are you saying this
00:35:24because you're drunk,
00:35:25or do you...
00:35:34I'm not drunk.
00:35:35Okay?
00:35:36You don't have to
00:35:37answer me tonight.
00:35:38Just think about it.
00:35:40Hmm?
00:36:11I told you,
00:36:12I'm not drunk.
00:36:13Nora,
00:36:14this one should come off.
00:36:16Oh, shit.
00:36:17I'm drunk.
00:36:20Nora,
00:36:21this one should come off.
00:36:22Oh, shit.
00:36:23I'm drunk.

00:36:43of introducing myself.

00:38:24the kind of place
00:38:25where anybody

00:38:27Oh, wait.

00:41:20deputy VP of projects,

00:41:23award the contract
00:41:24to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:26You can't win.
00:41:31I hear the
00:41:32Crescent Lake project
00:41:33is basically yours.
00:41:34Congratulations.
00:41:36Serena,

00:41:56Everybody already
00:41:57knows that
00:41:58Crescent Lake
00:41:58belongs to
00:41:58Harper Enterprise.
00:41:59I suggest you
00:42:00walk out of here
00:42:00before you keep
00:42:01embarrassing yourself.
00:42:02It's funny.
00:42:04You see,
00:42:04my Clark Group
00:42:05has deeper capital,
00:42:06better tech,
00:42:07and a stronger
00:42:08global record
00:42:09than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:10so I'm just curious,
00:42:12why would Mason Brooks
00:42:13go with you guys?
00:42:14He recognizes
00:42:15Damien's talent,
00:42:16of course.
00:42:21I need to take
00:42:28this.
00:42:29My Julian,
00:42:32what century

00:42:35You really think
00:42:36that capital and
00:42:36technology wins
00:42:37contracts anymore?
00:42:38Then what does?
00:42:40I ain't really
00:42:41that fucking stupid.
00:42:42Of course this.
00:42:45I paid Mason Brooks
00:42:46one million in crypto.
00:42:48What do you have
00:42:49that's gonna be that?
00:42:52You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:54That's impossible.
00:42:55He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56That's impossible.
00:42:57He wouldn't dare.
00:42:58Yeah, you want to
00:42:59understand the rules
00:43:00up top there, sweetheart.

00:44:52Are you insane,
00:44:53Damien?

00:44:55out loud.
00:44:56Mr. Brooks,
00:44:56what do you mean?
00:44:56She's just a gold-taking whore.
00:44:58I mean,
00:44:59even if she rats you out,
00:45:00who's gonna believe this?
00:45:02Why are you hitting me?
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:05When did I ever
00:45:06take your money?
00:45:07I never took one cent.
00:45:09Say it again
00:45:10and I'll bury you.
00:45:12Idiot!
00:45:12Mr. Brooks,
00:45:13what are you doing?
00:45:15Miss Lawson,
00:45:16this Damien,
00:45:17he's a lunatic.
00:45:18He's making things up.
00:45:20Don't listen to him.
00:45:21I swear,
00:45:22I never took
00:45:23one dollar from him.
00:45:24Not once!
00:45:27Miss Lawson?
00:45:30No, no, wait.
00:45:31You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:33Amber's group CEO?
00:45:35How is that possible?
00:45:36How is that fucking...
00:45:36Mr. Brooks!
00:45:38Hello,
00:45:38I am Serena Harper.
00:45:40Thank you so much
00:45:41for awarding
00:45:41the Crescent Lake Project
00:45:42to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:43We promise
00:45:44we won't let you down.
00:45:48Stop!
00:45:49Shut the fuck up!
00:45:50When did I ever
00:45:51give you anything?
00:45:54Miss Lawson?
00:45:55These Harper Enterprise people,
00:45:57they're all out of their minds.
00:45:59They lie like the wind.
00:46:01I can't believe
00:46:01a word they say.
00:46:03Miss Lawson?
00:46:05Miss Lawson?
00:46:07She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:20Miss Lawson,
00:46:21I am so sorry.
00:46:23Damien
00:46:24didn't know who you were
00:46:25so he thought
00:46:26that you and Julian
00:46:27were being
00:46:28inappropriate.
00:46:30But I'll make him apologize
00:46:31right now.
00:46:33He is blunt.
00:46:34Yes.
00:46:35But his ability
00:46:36is exceptional.
00:46:39Please,
00:46:39give Harper Enterprise
00:46:41the contract
00:46:41and I promise
00:46:43we will deliver results
00:46:44that satisfy you.
00:46:45Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course.
00:46:50If not,
00:46:51why would Mason Brooks
00:46:52have handed him
00:46:53so many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out.
00:47:03Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh, shit.
00:47:07I can't let her find out
00:47:09I secured every project right.
00:47:11So she's upset
00:47:12because I mistook her
00:47:13for a whore.
00:47:13So she wants revenge.
00:47:15So she's going to embarrass
00:47:16Harper Enterprise
00:47:17in front of everyone.
00:47:18So what we need to do
00:47:18is we need to get out
00:47:19of here now.
00:47:20Let's go.
00:47:20Go?
00:47:21If we don't win
00:47:22Crescent Lake,
00:47:23Harper Enterprise
00:47:24is finished.
00:47:26Even if Miss Lawson
00:47:27is trying to punish us,
00:47:28we still have to earn
00:47:29her forgiveness.
00:47:30Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay?
00:47:31I'm sorry.
00:47:32Here we go now.
00:47:34Alright?
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects,
00:47:35the biggest ones,
00:47:36but we need to go now.
00:47:37Come on.
00:47:37What is wrong with you
00:47:38today?
00:47:39Are you hiding
00:47:40something from me?
00:47:54You want to understand
00:47:55the rules up top there,
00:47:56sweetheart?
00:47:58Technology capital.
00:48:00Useless fucking trash.
00:48:02What?
00:48:03Shit!

00:48:05And escort.
00:48:06So why don't you do us
00:48:07all a nice little favor,
00:48:08get up on that stage,
00:48:09you should give us
00:48:10a nice little poll show.
00:48:14Who is that?
00:48:15He bribed Mason Brooks
00:48:17for contracts?
00:48:18That's Damien Blackwell,
00:48:19Harper Enterprise's
00:48:20executive assistant.
00:48:21How do you not know him?

00:48:25Harper Enterprise
00:48:26over the past six months,
00:48:27and now we know
00:48:28they were bought.
00:48:32That's not true.
00:48:32All of that's a lie.
00:48:34Just don't,
00:48:34just don't believe it.
00:48:35Just turn it up.
00:48:36Turn it up right now!
00:48:37Stop him!
00:48:39Let go of me!
00:48:42Damien,

00:48:49Mr. Brooks'
00:48:50man said,
00:48:51what a fucking
00:48:51ridiculous thing to say.
00:48:53Who are you
00:48:53to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think,
00:48:55you're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:56Amber.
00:48:59Turn it off.
00:49:00It's okay?

00:49:06Bribery is one thing,
00:49:07but mistaking Miss Lawson
00:49:09for an escort?
00:49:10A whore?
00:49:12He's fucking blind.
00:49:14The best part?
00:49:14He confessed
00:49:15right in front of her
00:49:16that Mason Brooks
00:49:17took money.
00:49:18Genius!
00:49:19And Serena
00:49:20trusted him
00:49:21to be her assistant?
00:49:22I mean,
00:49:22what does that say
00:49:23about her judgment?
00:49:24Damien,
00:49:25you have disappointed me
00:49:27beyond words.
00:49:28Serena,
00:49:29I did it because
00:49:29I cared about you.
00:49:30Because I care about
00:49:31Harper Enterprise.
00:49:32Please,
00:49:32I'm happy.
00:49:33You told you the truth.
00:49:34Enough.
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:38Mason Brooks,
00:49:39you're fired.

00:49:53with them
00:49:53will be suspended.
00:49:55The projects

00:50:07are future.
00:50:08And why am
00:50:09the person
00:50:09who hired trash

00:51:12a perfect result
00:51:13on every project.
00:51:16Perfect result?
00:51:17And what exactly
00:51:18guarantees that?
00:51:20Your empty
00:51:20suit assistant?
00:51:22Miss Lawson.
00:51:24Damien
00:51:25made a mistake.
00:51:27But his ability
00:51:28is exceptional.
00:51:30For six months
00:51:31he managed
00:51:32every Harper Enterprise
00:51:33project flawlessly.
00:51:34No errors,
00:51:35no delays.
00:51:36If you don't pull
00:51:37this contract,
00:51:38I guarantee
00:51:39he will make sure
00:51:40you see his value.
00:51:44Managed flawlessly?
00:51:46He's not the only
00:51:47empty suit here.
00:51:49You're too.
00:51:51Miss Lawson,
00:51:52you are crossing
00:51:53a line.
00:51:56I understand
00:51:57that you
00:51:58and Julian
00:51:59are close
00:51:59and you want
00:52:00to get back
00:52:00at me for him.
00:52:01But humiliating
00:52:03someone like this,
00:52:03isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:05You really think
00:52:06I froze
00:52:06our cooperation
00:52:07because Damien
00:52:08and Bright Mason?
00:52:10Wasn't that
00:52:11the reason?
00:52:12For six months,
00:52:14Harper Enterprise
00:52:15got everything
00:52:17it wanted
00:52:17from Ember Group
00:52:18for one reason.
00:52:21Julian Clark.
00:52:23Damien
00:52:24has nothing
00:52:25to do with that.
00:52:27He was just
00:52:27a messenger boy
00:52:28who picked up
00:52:28the contracts.
00:52:30What?
00:52:31When Julian
00:52:31was there,
00:52:33bribe or no bribe,
00:52:34Harper Enterprise
00:52:35got the deals
00:52:36anyway.
00:52:37But now,
00:52:38Julian's gone,
00:52:39so the special
00:52:41treatment is gone.
00:52:42Damien's little
00:52:43ribbing incident,
00:52:44it was just
00:52:45a convenient excuse
00:52:46to take everything
00:52:47back.
00:52:48Understand now?
00:52:52And about those
00:52:54flawless projects,
00:52:56Harper Enterprise
00:52:56didn't run smoothly
00:52:57because Damien
00:52:59is brilliant.
00:53:00It ran smoothly
00:53:01because Julian
00:53:02called every partner,
00:53:04every supplier,
00:53:05every gatekeeper
00:53:06and cleared
00:53:07the path for you.
00:53:08Damien had nothing
00:53:10to do with that.
00:53:13No.
00:53:15That's not true.
00:53:16I don't believe
00:53:17it.
00:53:17You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch.
00:53:21Watch what happens
00:53:23when Julian leaves.
00:53:24Let's see if
00:53:25your exceptional
00:53:26Damien can keep
00:53:27everything perfect
00:53:28when Julian
00:53:29is not there
00:53:29to hold
00:53:30the world
00:53:31together for you.
00:53:33Come on,
00:53:34let's go.
00:53:36Let's go.
00:53:36Let's go.
00:53:39Let's go.
00:53:41Julian,
00:53:42is what she's
00:53:43saying true?
00:53:45You were right
00:53:46about one thing,
00:53:46Serena.
00:53:48Julian and I
00:53:48are closer
00:53:49than you thought.
00:53:50That's why it disgusts
00:53:51me watching him
00:53:52waste his life away
00:53:54on a selfish
00:53:55and blind woman
00:53:56like you.
00:54:01Was I wrong?
00:54:02No, no, no,
00:54:03Serena, Serena,
00:54:04do not listen
00:54:04to her nonsense.
00:54:05Harper's success
00:54:06is based off
00:54:07of my hard work.
00:54:09Okay, Nora Lawson,
00:54:09she's attacking
00:54:11and slandering
00:54:12my name
00:54:12to defend Julian.
00:54:14You have to believe me.
00:54:15Please,
00:54:15you have to understand.
00:54:16Because of you,
00:54:18Crescent Lake
00:54:19is gone.
00:54:20Every Amber Project
00:54:21is gone.
00:54:22Harper Enterprise
00:54:23is on the edge
00:54:24of collapse
00:54:25and you're asking
00:54:26me to trust you?
00:54:27How?
00:54:28Tell me how.
00:54:30Please,
00:54:30just listen to me.
00:54:32Okay, yeah,
00:54:32we lost Amber Group
00:54:33but we're not finished.
00:54:35I mean,
00:54:36we still have the partners
00:54:37and the CEOs.
00:54:37I mean,
00:54:38they love me.
00:54:38They absolutely love
00:54:39and adore me.
00:54:41I promise.
00:54:42You know what?
00:54:42Matter of fact,
00:54:43I'm going to call
00:54:43and I'm going to get you
00:54:44some new projects
00:54:45right now.
00:54:49Hello, Mr. Foster.
00:54:50It's Damien here.
00:54:51I hear the Grandview Plaza
00:54:52is taking bids
00:54:53and Harper Enterprise,
00:54:55you know,
00:54:55we would absolutely love.
00:54:57Harper Enterprise?
00:54:58Who the hell is that?
00:55:00Do you think you're even
00:55:00in the same league
00:55:01as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:04Mr. Foster,
00:55:06what do you mean?
00:55:09last time we spoke
00:55:09you said
00:55:09that you believed
00:55:11in the Harper Enterprise
00:55:12and that you would
00:55:12love to work together.
00:55:14Listen up,
00:55:14that's because Julian Clark
00:55:16was in your damn enterprise.
00:55:18I was giving him respect.
00:55:20You,
00:55:20don't flatter yourself,
00:55:22bunch of blind dumbasses.
00:55:24Call me again
00:55:24and I'll block
00:55:25your fucking number.
00:55:27So what really was Julian?
00:55:28No, no,
00:55:29that's not possible.
00:55:31I don't believe that.
00:55:32I don't.
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:35It's Damien.
00:55:35I was hoping to talk
00:55:36about future collaborations.
00:55:37Damien,
00:55:38you've got the fucking nerve
00:55:40to call me?
00:55:41I gave Harper Enterprise
00:55:42projects because of Mr. Clark
00:55:44and then you turned around
00:55:46and claimed you closed the deal?
00:55:48Who gave you the audacity?
00:55:50Shameless trash?
00:55:54Miss Parker.
00:55:56Miss Parker,
00:55:57no,
00:55:57no,
00:55:58no,
00:55:58God damn it!
00:55:59No,
00:56:00I don't believe this.
00:56:01I don't believe this.
00:56:02Fucking Julian
00:56:04this whole fucking time.
00:56:05God damn it.
00:56:06Sorry,
00:56:07sorry.
00:56:07Um,
00:56:08hello?
00:56:10Mr. Turner,
00:56:10it's Damien.
00:56:11Damien,
00:56:12who do you think you are,
00:56:13huh?
00:56:14Calling me directly?
00:56:15Learn some manners.
00:56:18Julian was polite enough
00:56:20to tolerate you
00:56:20playing sideman
00:56:21with his fiance.
00:56:22I'm not,
00:56:23you bastard too.
00:56:26Mr. Turner?
00:56:27Mr.
00:56:28Mr.
00:56:28Turner,
00:56:28please.
00:56:31What the fuck
00:56:32is happening?
00:56:39Miss Harper?
00:56:40This is bad.
00:56:42Our partners are flooding us
00:56:43with messages.
00:56:44They're suspended contracts,
00:56:45pulling out of deals.
00:56:46Wait,
00:56:47what is happening?
00:56:48They said before
00:56:49they only worked
00:56:50with Harper Enterprise
00:56:51because Julian Clark
00:56:52backed us.
00:56:53Now that he's gone,
00:56:54they don't trust us
00:56:54with their project.
00:56:56Julian.
00:56:58It's Julian again.
00:57:03It's true.
00:57:05They only gave us deals
00:57:07because of Julian.
00:57:09Julian!
00:57:10No, no, no, no.
00:57:11Suena, please, okay?
00:57:12They're just saying that
00:57:13because Julian
00:57:14has been paying them off.
00:57:15Think about it, okay?
00:57:16You know what?
00:57:16Just give me some time
00:57:17and I'll get you
00:57:18some new projects.
00:57:19I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:20I swear.
00:57:21Get away from me!
00:57:23You liar!
00:57:24You fraud, Damien!
00:57:26All those CEOs,
00:57:29they only had you
00:57:30pick up contracts from them
00:57:31and you told me
00:57:32you negotiated the deals.
00:57:34I swear,
00:57:35I didn't know
00:57:36that they would.
00:57:39Get out of my sight.
00:57:42Now!
00:58:00Fuck!
00:58:01Damn it!
00:58:01No!
00:58:02I was this close
00:58:02to locking Serena down.
00:58:04I'm stepping into
00:58:05the upper circle.
00:58:05I'm not letting it
00:58:06end like this.
00:58:12Serena,
00:58:13you really thought
00:58:14you were smart.
00:58:16But you're really just
00:58:17pathetic,
00:58:19trash.
00:58:21Without Julian,
00:58:22you're nothing.
00:58:33Dad warned you.
00:58:35Grandpa warned you.
00:58:37And you still
00:58:38wouldn't listen.
00:58:42You ignored
00:58:43everything Julian did
00:58:45and worshipped
00:58:46a con artist
00:58:47like Damien.
00:58:49idiot.
00:58:50Stupid.
00:58:51Stupid.
00:58:53Stupid.
00:58:53Stupid.
00:59:00Stupid.
00:59:01And now look at you.
00:59:04Projects gone.
00:59:06Company collapsing.
00:59:10Idiot.
00:59:12You arrogant.
00:59:13Stupid.
00:59:13I'm so stupid.
00:59:15Idiot.
00:59:16I'm so stupid.
00:59:23Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:31I'm so sorry.
00:59:33I'm so sorry.
00:59:47I know, I know, I know.
00:59:49I'm so sorry.
00:59:49Look,
00:59:51always damn Julian.
00:59:53Julian,
00:59:57come back, okay?
00:59:59Please come back.
01:00:04Damn back.
01:00:09You don't have to be scared.
01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business queen
01:00:14is so much better
01:00:15than those cheap girls.
01:00:17Once I lock her down,
01:00:18Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:22Damien!
01:00:23You sick bastard!
01:00:25You sick bastard!
01:00:30I really mean it.
01:00:32I love you.
01:00:33You fucking hell.
01:00:34I'm telling you the truth.
01:00:36I mean it, okay?
01:00:37I promise.
01:00:39I'll treat you well.
01:00:43You fucking monster dead.
01:00:45Get off me, please.
01:00:47I'm begging you, don't.
01:00:49Say yes.
01:00:50What are you doing?
01:00:55I'm fucking dead.
01:00:56I'm sorry, help me.
01:00:58I tried being nice to you.
01:01:00I fucking tried.
01:01:01But you keep fighting me back.
01:01:04Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:05Keep fucking screaming.
01:01:07Right?
01:01:09You're not going to say no.
01:01:11I'm going to fuck you.
01:01:12No!
01:01:13Help!
01:01:15Help!
01:01:16Julian!
01:01:17Julian!
01:01:18Help!
01:01:21Get him out of here!
01:01:23Stop!
01:01:24Let me go!
01:01:25Julian, you know it's been in the fucking place.
01:01:27This is an over.
01:01:32Julian!
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had like...
01:01:36We are not that close.
01:01:40I was just passing through.
01:01:41I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:01:44You.
01:01:45I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:47Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:48Yes, sir.
01:01:51Julian!
01:01:52I am sorry.
01:01:54I know.
01:01:55I was wrong.
01:01:57Just...
01:01:58Please come back.
01:01:59Julian!
01:02:00Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:12Serena...
01:02:13I told you...
01:02:15over and over and over again...
01:02:19that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:22And you refused to listen.
01:02:26And Julian...
01:02:27If Julian doesn't come along...
01:02:29just at the right time...
01:02:30Oh my God.
01:02:32I can't even...
01:02:33I can't even think about it.
01:02:35If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours...
01:02:38one day...
01:02:40you live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please.
01:02:43Stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:46I'll...
01:02:47I'll apologize.
01:02:48I'll apologize...
01:02:49to Julian...
01:02:51and...
01:02:51I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:55The problem with that is that...
01:02:56you may feel that way...
01:02:58but Julian might not.
01:03:01Grandpa...
01:03:02Don't worry.
01:03:04I...
01:03:05I will apologize properly...
01:03:07and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:10That's all we can do.
01:03:13So, John...
01:03:14put out a citywide bolo...
01:03:17on that bastard Damien.
01:03:20He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:23We're not letting that go.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26We're not.
01:03:27Understood.
01:03:30We're not.
01:03:30We're not.
01:03:31We're not.
01:03:32We're not.
01:03:33We're not.
01:03:43We're not.
01:03:45We're not.
01:03:46We're not.
01:03:47We're not.
01:03:47We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:48We're not.
01:03:49We're not.
01:03:50We're not.
01:03:51We're not.
01:03:56We're not.
01:03:59Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:06What is this supposed to be?
01:04:08A gift for you.
01:04:10Myself.
01:04:12I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:15Amber group backs you up.
01:04:16No questions asked.
01:04:18But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Not really.
01:04:32Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:35You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:38You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped
01:04:41and any man would have, you know,
01:04:44housed me by now.
01:04:46Then tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:50Hung up?
01:04:52You're not going to be hung up on Serena.
01:04:53She and I were never romantic.
01:04:56No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:05:00Things are moving too fast.
01:05:02You gotta think twice.
01:05:04But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off
01:05:08into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:14Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:18Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:19Julian, my uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune
01:05:23and he'll do whatever it takes
01:05:24to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:27I want you.
01:05:28I love you.
01:05:31Julian, let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:39You know, if you'll marry me,
01:05:42my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:57Okay.
01:05:59I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No takebacks.
01:06:03No takebacks.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:05Ever.
01:06:05I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:08But can you help me out?
01:06:12Um, my hands are getting hurt.
01:06:15I'm so impatient.
01:06:20It's like you said,
01:06:22if I accept the gift,
01:06:25then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:32Then be gentle.
01:06:41Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:46Uh, no, because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember that.
01:06:51You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift,
01:06:54you kind of remember that for the rest of your life.
01:06:57Details.
01:06:58Details.
01:06:58Those are just tiny details.
01:07:02You look like big details to me.
01:07:07Julian.
01:07:09Can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:12Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:14Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:16I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:17I misjudged everything.
01:07:19Please, just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:24And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:26I'll do anything.
01:07:28I'm sorry.
01:07:28I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:43Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:45And yet he stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:49He asked you out 37 times.
01:07:52So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm?
01:07:57Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:04Listen carefully.
01:08:05We are together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:08But if you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:14Come on.
01:08:15We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:18Let's not be late.
01:08:19Wedding outfits.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:41He's with Nora.
01:08:46Nora.
01:08:47Nora Lawson.
01:08:49CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:52You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:08:56The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:09:00You don't get another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family a chance.
01:09:04And we blew it.
01:09:07God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:09Please.
01:09:12Ms. Hopper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Hopper Enterprise's cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:19If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:24Great.
01:09:25Now all of Warstreet knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:29That was going to lend to us now.
01:09:30How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:33This is my fault.
01:09:34Okay?
01:09:35I was blind.
01:09:36Are you proud now?
01:09:39I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:42I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:47And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:52Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined Harpers Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad, you're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:05So maybe you should go talk to him and see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:10Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:12Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:14If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:17Clark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:21Yes.
01:10:22They honored our engagement.
01:10:25And that was a mercy.
01:10:26That was a blessing.
01:10:27But you threw it away.
01:10:32Still.
01:10:34For your sake and for your future.
01:10:37And for our future.
01:10:39We'll fight.
01:10:46Serena.
01:10:48When you see Julian's grandfather,
01:10:51your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:54Dear, if he forgives you,
01:10:57only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:04For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22Welcome.
01:11:24You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing.
01:11:29They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:34So they're really engaged?
01:11:37How is this all happening so fast?
01:11:40What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:43Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born
01:11:46and everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married.
01:11:50Oh, oh, I see.
01:11:51Get him and come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:56Then, please leave.
01:11:58Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:00Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:12:05If there's an engagement party,
01:12:08that means Julian's grandfather
01:12:10has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:14And that means we're done.
01:12:17There's no more chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:25All right, everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:28Big smiles.
01:12:30Woo!
01:12:37Sure, sure, sure, sure.
01:12:39Look at that.
01:12:40Yeah.
01:12:44Julian, are you okay?
01:12:46Hey.
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54Oh, it's nothing.
01:12:55Come on, dinner's almost ready.
01:12:58Shh.
01:13:10Dad?
01:13:11The Harpers?
01:13:13My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:18For a young one.
01:13:20It's six months at Harper Enterprise.
01:13:23It was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown the Harpers more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:43You can't drink this away.
01:13:45Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:48If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me the fuck alone.
01:13:54Okay?
01:13:54Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:58I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:59No, you...
01:14:02All right, I've got to take this.
01:14:04Don't move.
01:14:05I'll be right back, and then I am taking you home.
01:14:17Mora.
01:14:20Okay, Mora.
01:14:22Be honest.
01:14:23You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged, and you're getting married next week?
01:14:30Let's see.
01:14:31You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:34You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:36I've liked Julian for 20 years, and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:41You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:46They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:50But I have to move fast.
01:14:52If they start begging, what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:57But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:15:00There's no real love.
01:15:02Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:05You don't get it.
01:15:07Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:10months, and it wasn't just because his grandfather would do it.
01:15:14Then why?
01:15:16Because Serena is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:28No way!
01:15:29I'm serious.
01:15:31The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:33That exact time.
01:15:35I mean, with his personality,
01:15:38even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:40he would have stayed there for three days max,
01:15:42and then vanished.
01:15:43He would not stay there
01:15:45and take six months of humiliation
01:15:48if he didn't want it to.
01:15:49That's Julian Clark.
01:15:51So that's why?
01:15:53Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:55I have to get married fast.
01:15:58I cannot give her a single chance.
01:16:01So that's what it was.
01:16:03Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:05because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me.
01:16:08That means I still have a chance.
01:16:10I still have a chance.
01:16:12This is my last shot.
01:16:13I am not wasting it.
01:16:22Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow, they look perfect together.
01:16:48They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:50The whole fantasy.
01:16:51Oh my God, brilliant!
01:16:54And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:16Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:19Who is that?
01:17:21Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:22CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:24You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:27and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:29Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:41Julian, I know you like me.
01:17:44You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:17:46humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please.
01:17:57Give me another chance.
01:18:02Our engagement is over.
01:18:04In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:07Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:09Have some dignity.
01:18:10In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:12No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just stop.
01:18:20I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times,
01:18:25but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:37Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:39I know you like me.
01:18:40So why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:47Simple question.
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:53I...
01:18:54Exactly.
01:18:54You don't.
01:18:55You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:57You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:19:00See, what you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:04You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:09No, that...
01:19:11That's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:16Please, listen.
01:19:17Enough.
01:19:17Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise,
01:19:19do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:23Let me ask you this.
01:19:24If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:27if your value kept climbing,
01:19:29would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34No.
01:19:35I...
01:19:35No, you wouldn't.
01:19:35You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:37You'd be celebrating.
01:19:39You'd say that you earned the business queen crown.
01:19:41You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:44You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:46Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:49No.
01:19:50No, Julian.
01:19:52That's not me.
01:19:54Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:56You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:58But on my wedding day,
01:19:59you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:20:01Why?
01:20:02Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:04Your donor.
01:20:05Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:07But the moment I stop being useful,
01:20:10you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:13No.
01:20:15No, Julian.
01:20:16That is not true.
01:20:18For the night that you saved me from Damien,
01:20:21I...
01:20:23I felt something for you.
01:20:25I did.
01:20:26Stop.
01:20:26Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:29You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:30You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:32You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:35You know, I'll admit,
01:20:36when I met you,
01:20:38you were exactly my type.
01:20:41But once I got to know you,
01:20:43once I realized what you really are,
01:20:45all I felt was disgust.
01:20:49But Nora...
01:20:52She has cared for me
01:20:53since we were kids.
01:20:56When I was sick,
01:20:58she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:21:01When I was at my lowest,
01:21:02she pulled me back up.
01:21:04Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise
01:21:06on the engagement,
01:21:08she still supported me.
01:21:10She still took hits from me.
01:21:15So, let me ask you.
01:21:18Why would I give up all of that for you?
01:21:22What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:33Don't, don't, please.
01:21:34I'm begging you.
01:21:35Just please let me explain.
01:21:37Please.
01:21:38Please, please, please.
01:21:39Don't let me go.
01:21:40Julian, please don't do it.
01:21:43Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:44I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:46Turns out,
01:21:47she just realized,
01:21:48without Julian,
01:21:49she can't stay on top.
01:21:50She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:52Totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:42I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:46Harper Enterprise,
01:22:46affected today,
01:22:47has become a Clark Group subsidiary,
01:22:49so,
01:22:51we're all being terminated.
01:22:52Are you watching?
01:22:53What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark,
01:22:55that's too much.
01:22:56I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:59You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years, wow.
01:23:03Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years
01:23:05to make this company clean,
01:23:06and instead,
01:23:07you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know,
01:23:10I've been watching you guys
01:23:11for about six months now.
01:23:13I've seen how you all work.
01:23:16Bribes,
01:23:18embezzlement,
01:23:20kickbacks,
01:23:22fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a mile.
01:23:26So,
01:23:27we're going to be passing out
01:23:27some resignation terms,
01:23:30and,
01:23:30once you sign them,
01:23:33hand over your badges,
01:23:34or you're going to rob him.
01:23:37this,
01:23:38this is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:57Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:24:00He begged him to acquire
01:24:01Harper Enterprise
01:24:01so that your family
01:24:02could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:08Julian.
01:24:10If I
01:24:12didn't treat you the way I did,
01:24:14would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian,
01:24:25right now you get thrown away
01:24:25and still land something better.
01:24:27I spent my whole life
01:24:28climbing upwards,
01:24:29and now I'm stuck at the bottom,
01:24:30hunted by cops.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian,
01:24:34what's your list?
01:24:35Julian,
01:24:36let me go.
01:24:41Bucky,
01:24:41let me go.
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all,
01:24:45did you?
01:24:46Yo,
01:24:46take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to ride in jail.
01:24:50Fucking coward.
01:24:51You're a fucking coward.
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's money.
01:24:54No,
01:24:54no,
01:24:54fight me.
01:24:55101.
01:24:55101,
01:24:56let the guards go.
01:24:57You're all the fucking guts to you.
01:25:03Hey,
01:25:03Julian,
01:25:04what was that?
01:25:06Just taking out the trash.
01:25:09Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong.
01:25:22Julian,
01:25:23I was wrong.
01:25:24I was wrong.
