00:00:00I am Grayson. My brother and I started a restaurant a year ago.

00:00:03Business was crazy. We cleared 6 million in one year.

00:00:07But me? He gave me only 100 grand.

00:00:09A prep cook barely makes 2,000 a month.

00:00:13I gave you 100 grand, and only because you're my brother.

00:00:18I took it with a smile.

00:00:20Then I turned around and leased that run-down, filthy restaurant right across from his.

00:00:25I started my own place.

00:00:27The second my restaurant overtook Iron Anchor, Percy snapped.

00:00:31He smashed his own car hood.

00:00:33He just couldn't wrap his head around it.

00:00:36How did his useless younger brother's restaurant become the most popular place in town?

00:00:42Percy, I've got an opening for a prep cook.

00:00:45$2,000 a month.

00:00:50Business blew up this year. We cleared 6 mil.

00:00:53Here's your share.

00:00:59I took it and counted.

00:01:00Only 100,000.

00:01:01Not even a fraction of the restaurant's profit.

00:01:04I put up the money for this restaurant.

00:01:05I did all the live streams and marketing.

00:01:08You're just a line cook.

00:01:10Any bum off the street could do your job.

00:01:12If you weren't my brother, you wouldn't see a dime of this.

00:01:16For a whole year, I worked non-stop, running around, picking out the best suppliers.

00:01:21Okay. I want to tell you about my restaurant.

00:01:24Just give me three minutes and I'll tell you about my restaurant.

00:01:29Thank you for providing such high-quality ingredients.

00:01:32You really helped us solve a big problem.

00:01:36I went back and forth between thousands of restaurants, studying what customers really want.

00:01:41Sir, you've been creeping on our customers for five hours. Move along or I'm calling the cops.

00:01:45Sorry, sorry. I'm leaving right now.

00:01:50And Percy, he just gets a fancy hairstyle and camps out in front of his live stream.

00:01:55Five people, always the same five, making a fool of himself over and over again.

00:02:00I put in at least half the work for that six million and that hundred thousand Percy gave me.

00:02:05Ninety thousand of it was just him paying me back for the purchasing money.

00:02:08I'd already fronted all year, but I still took the money.

00:02:11Thanks.

00:02:12I turned, pushed the door open, and then Percy called out to me.

00:02:16The citywide benchmark judging is in three days.

00:02:19The mayor is coming to Iron Anchor to try the fatty tuna sushi.

00:02:21Your sashimi is the most popular with customers.

00:02:24So make sure you have a blue fit tuna ready and cut the belly part well.

00:02:29Okay.

00:02:32See you in three days.

00:02:34Good boy.

00:02:35I didn't say a word.

00:02:36Percy never thought I'd be that easy to brush off.

00:02:44And me.

00:02:45I stood in front of that failed restaurant right across the street.

00:02:49The one that couldn't keep up with Iron Anchor and went belly up.

00:02:52Everyone knew it was filthy, broken, a total mess.

00:02:56Percy thought it was a dump.

00:02:57A place only bums would set foot in.

00:03:02Hello, I'd like to rent this restaurant for ten years.

00:03:05Takes goods to rent this spot, kid.

00:03:07Nobody survives a cross from Iron Anchor.

00:03:09You absolutely sure?

00:03:10I'm sure.

00:03:11I walked out after signing the papers.

00:03:13And across the street, Iron Anchor was already partying.

00:03:16Getting hyped for the mayor's big arrival.

00:03:19What Percy didn't realize.

00:03:20That award in three days.

00:03:22It was about to turn into his worst nightmare.

00:03:26This rundown shop was hidden away.

00:03:29Filthy.

00:03:30Pitch.

00:03:31Dark.

00:03:31Thick layers of grease covered everything.

00:03:34I didn't complain.

00:03:35Though, inside, I was actually pumped.

00:03:39Percy quickly realized someone had rented that dump across the street again.

00:03:43He got out of his fancy car, saw it was me, and just lost it, laughing so hard he could

00:03:49barely stand.

00:03:53Grayson, you absolute idiot.

00:03:55I gave you $100,000, and you blow it on this rat hole?

00:04:00Don't you have any idea how good a life a hundred grand could have bought you?

00:04:03I ignored him.

00:04:04Percy started wandering around the restaurant on his own.

00:04:07Even pulled out his phone and went live, making exaggerated faces at the camera.

00:04:12Look at this, folks.

00:04:13Thick, nasty grease all over the tables.

00:04:16This place is so disgusting.

00:04:17I swear, even a rat wouldn't come near it.

00:04:20Then he put his arm around my shoulder and struck a friendly pose for the camera.

00:04:24Grayson, I'm your older brother.

00:04:27I have to take care of you.

00:04:29You're always welcome back at Iron Archer.

00:04:31I did fill your old spot for half the pay, but you know how replaceable that kind of job is.

00:04:37After humiliating me, Percy left the restaurant, satisfied.

00:04:41He had to get ready for the mayor's visit.

00:04:43He had his workers turn the place into a luxurious palace.

00:04:46But one thing he would never understand.

00:04:49A restaurant's true essence is the food.

00:04:51And me, I stayed up late every night, cleaning the restaurant.

00:04:57It was already three in the morning when I got home.

00:05:00The light was still on.

00:05:01I caught my reflection in the mirror by the door, covered in dirt.

00:05:04My face exhausted.

00:05:05I panicked.

00:05:07I didn't want my family to worry, but I knew I had to face it eventually.

00:05:13My wife Mia looked at me with concern.

00:05:16Honey, what happened?

00:05:18Why are you so late?

00:05:19Percy asked me to clean the kitchen.

00:05:21I didn't have time to wash up.

00:05:25Mia looked uneasy.

00:05:27She took my hand and pulled me down onto the sofa.

00:05:30I saw the news.

00:05:31The mayor is going to personally review Iron Anchor.

00:05:35The restaurant you and Percy opened is really making money.

00:05:39Big enough to even get the mayor's attention.

00:05:42Did he give you any of it?

00:05:44Sure.

00:05:45He gave me a hundred grand.

00:05:47Only a hundred grand?

00:05:48The news said the place cleared six million.

00:05:51That's not fair.

00:05:53You put your whole heart into this restaurant for an entire year.

00:05:56At least half of the credit is yours.

00:05:59How could he do this to you?

00:06:01Mia, calm down.

00:06:03Percy is an idiot with his head stuck up in the clouds.

00:06:06Why are you still working for him?

00:06:10I'm opening my own restaurant.

00:06:14I support whatever decision you make.

00:06:20Here's twenty grand.

00:06:22Go all in, Grayson.

00:06:24The baby and I will be just fine.

00:06:27I won't let you down.

00:06:29I swear.

00:06:30The Industry Benchmark Restaurant Awards were in two days.

00:06:34That night, I couldn't sleep at all.

00:06:36What if I let Mia down?

00:06:38The dirty, pitch black image of Sea Mist Restaurant kept flashing through my mind.

00:06:42I wasn't sure if the changes I made would be enough to pass the inspection.

00:06:46I started doubting whether going solo was the right move.

00:06:49Or just a stupid decision made out of anger.

00:06:51I picked up the little notebook I've been keeping for years.

00:06:54And sat down at the desk.

00:06:56It is filled with all kinds of customer info and preferences.

00:06:59I've recorded including the mayor's.

00:07:01I once sat in a high-end restaurant.

00:07:03And carefully watched how he ate.

00:07:04What he left on his plate.

00:07:06This notebook gives me the confidence that comes from experience.

00:07:10Then suddenly, my phone rang.

00:07:14What did you say?

00:07:15Sea Mist Restaurant?

00:07:17Passed the qualification inspection?

00:07:20This is the best Christmas gift I've ever received.

00:07:25With the license in hand, I'm halfway there.

00:07:27I reached out to the supplier I'd worked so hard to win over before.

00:07:30He'd always seen my potential.

00:07:31And the moment he heard I was opening my own place, he cut ties with Percy on the spot and

00:07:35said yes.

00:07:35You should have gone out on your own a long time ago.

00:07:38I can tell you've got way more ability than that brother of yours.

00:07:41All he knows is flashy tricks.

00:08:07The mayor's coming to Iron Anchor in person tomorrow.

00:08:13I'm your only shot at rubbing elbows with big shots like that.

00:08:17And make sure you bring your wife Mia.

00:08:20I swear, she's never seen anything this grand in her life.

00:08:25Percy's laugh was full of contempt.

00:08:28He was sure I couldn't measure up to him in any way.

00:08:30Tomorrow was going to be his day to shine.

00:08:32And at an event like this, his little brother, the one foolish enough to open a restaurant right across from

00:08:37Iron Anchor, would be the perfect person to compare himself to.

00:08:41I'll be there on time.

00:08:44Here's ten bucks.

00:08:46Go park my car for me.

00:08:51Everyone believed Iron Anchor would definitely become the industry benchmark.

00:08:55Percy was so sure of it that he boasted and signed a whole year's worth of orders for the future.

00:09:00But he overlooked me.

00:09:01A brother he'd never once seen as a competitor.

00:09:04Insignificant.

00:09:05Obedient.

00:09:06Beneath notice.

00:09:08When I got home, I told Mia that I was going to Percy's restaurant for the awards event.

00:09:12I could see the worry in her eyes.

00:09:15No, Grayson, you don't have to go to that awards event tomorrow.

00:09:19Can't you see?

00:09:20He stole the fruits of your hard work, and now he wants to humiliate you in public.

00:09:25Mia, I've already decided to go.

00:09:28If he tries to embarrass me, I'll forget we're brothers and I'll take his place for good.

00:09:35A place that was always meant to be mine.

00:09:38Fine.

00:09:40I'll go with you.

00:09:45Percy hadn't seated the guests yet.

00:09:47He was waiting by the door for something.

00:09:49The moment he saw Mia and me show up, his eyes locked onto us like a radar.

00:09:54Look, there's my little brother.

00:09:59Let me introduce you all.

00:10:00This is my brother, Grayson.

00:10:02He just took over a garbage dump across the street from Iron Anchor and thinks he's going

00:10:06to compete with me.

00:10:07Percy said it like a joke.

00:10:09All the guests looked at me with contempt in their eyes.

00:10:12Even Mia's smile froze on her face.

00:10:18You know what Percy nets a year?

00:10:20Six million dollars.

00:10:22You won't see that kind of money in ten lifetimes.

00:10:25You really should just stick with your brother.

00:10:27That way you can at least lap up some of the leftovers.

00:10:31Don't mind them, Grayson.

00:10:32What they said was harsh, but it's the truth.

00:10:38That's enough.

00:10:39You're all way out of line.

00:10:41The truth is, he's better than every one of you.

00:10:46Grayson, control your wife.

00:10:47This isn't the place for a scene.

00:10:49Easy, Mia.

00:10:50I'm fine.

00:10:59Here's my card.

00:11:00You're all welcome to come check out my new restaurant across the street.

00:11:03Percy looked at me in disbelief.

00:11:05He never expected that after being humiliated like that.

00:11:08Grayson, what are you doing here?

00:11:08I'd still be able to hand out my business card.

00:11:11Everyone looked embarrassed.

00:11:13No one took it.

00:11:15Grayson, are you seriously expecting these suppliers to visit your dump?

00:11:19Don't be ridiculous.

00:11:20I smiled and shook my head.

00:11:22I swear.

00:11:24One day they'll be begging to work with me.

00:11:32These are all Iron Anchor's signature dishes.

00:11:34Everyone, help yourselves.

00:11:38I could see right through it.

00:11:40The dishes looked exactly the same as before.

00:11:43But the ingredients had changed.

00:11:45Percy always cuts corners with cheap ingredients to save money.

00:11:48But he doesn't understand his customers.

00:11:50Every single one of them has a picky palate.

00:11:53Without my notebook, that records every customer's preferences.

00:11:56He can never make the perfect dish.

00:11:59At the table, the guests could already tell something was off with the food.

00:12:03But because they were so eager to flatter Percy, they chose to ignore it.

00:12:07The mayor's personal inspection is the highest honor in the industry.

00:12:11Percy kept bragging about how successful his restaurant had become in just one year.

00:12:15How much money he'd made.

00:12:16Mia was so upset, she couldn't even eat.

00:12:19The anger in her eyes could have skinned Percy alive.

00:12:21But that wasn't enough for Percy.

00:12:23He brought me up again.

00:12:25Grayson, once Iron Anchor takes over the world, you can still come back.

00:12:31I mean, you don't have much skill, just good for a few simple little jobs.

00:12:35But you are my little brother after all.

00:12:38Percy, you're such a good man.

00:12:41Your brother has a death wish opening a restaurant right across from you,

00:12:44and you're still looking out for him.

00:12:47Of course.

00:12:49What does a line cook know about running a restaurant?

00:12:52Without Percy, he's nothing.

00:12:56I was furious.

00:12:58All anyone could see was Percy's winning glow.

00:13:00No one saw the one who'd done all the work behind the scenes.

00:13:03Percy was soaking up the praise.

00:13:06Laughing and clinking glasses with those guests.

00:13:08And that was the moment he completely cut off the last bit of mercy I had left for him.

00:13:12The industry benchmark awarded by the mayor can only be my sea mist restaurant.

00:13:16I raised my glass, a calm smile on my face.

00:13:19You're alright.

00:13:20Everything I do I learn from Percy, my respected big brother.

00:13:26The mayor was arriving any minute.

00:13:28Percy told me to go to the kitchen and get ready to cut the bluefin tuna.

00:13:32Grayson, get your ass to the kitchen and help out.

00:13:36Even though you had the nerve to leave me, I still invited you to this important event.

00:13:40And the only reason is because you're my brother.

00:13:43Percy finished talking and went off to greet the mayor.

00:13:51I looked at the mayor.

00:13:52I knew my chance had come.

00:13:57A year ago, I went through hell to land the supplier with the highest food safety rating.

00:14:02Percy never understood how important fresh ingredients are to a restaurant.

00:14:08And now that top-tier supplier belongs to me.

00:14:11The one who took over supplying Iron Anchor?

00:14:14Obviously just some crooked merchant faking it.

00:14:21This tuna smells really weird.

00:14:24I tried to warn them about quality control, but Percy never listened to a word I said.

00:14:32Grayson, step aside.

00:14:35The new guy here can actually handle a knife.

00:14:42Grayson, you just stand aside and watch.

00:14:44Even for a line cook, you've still got a lot to learn.

00:14:47Percy didn't care about my skills.

00:14:51He asked me to come to the kitchen only to humiliate me with the new hire.

00:14:55To prove I was good for nothing.

00:14:58But he had no idea how complicated Blue Fit Tuna is.

00:15:02Without real knife skills, you can't handle it properly.

00:15:06Especially a piece of cheap, low-quality tuna like this.

00:15:10Percy!

00:15:12You're going to regret everything you've done today.

00:15:14I swear it.

00:15:16I'm just trying to make my little brother better.

00:15:18Otherwise, how is he going to support you and the baby in your belly?

00:15:21With that failing restaurant across the street?

00:15:27I'll learn from him.

00:15:29After today, one of us will be famous and the other will be a nobody.

00:15:37Grayson, I really feel sorry for you.

00:15:41That is right.

00:15:42After today, one of us is going to take over the world.

00:15:46And the other is going to fade into obscurity.

00:15:48I watched very carefully.

00:15:50Joss thought I was actually learning.

00:15:52And he even took the time to explain things to me.

00:15:54I smiled.

00:15:55With such lousy technique, that Blue Fied Tuna was going to end up as nothing but a pile of ruined

00:16:00meat in his hands.

00:16:02And the mayor.

00:16:04He hates nothing more than being handed low-quality.

00:16:07Butchered tuna.

00:16:08Like it is no big deal.

00:16:13Percy was in the dining room, chatting up the mayor like he was king of the world.

00:16:17He had no idea.

00:16:19His restaurant was heading straight to hell.

00:16:21Joss walked up, carrying a covered platter.

00:16:24Meanwhile, the highest quality Blue Fied Tuna was being delivered to Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:16:30where the expensive head chef I hired was handling the premium tuna, according to the methods written in my notebook.

00:16:36My dear fans, it's showtime.

00:16:38The mayor is here.

00:16:39Today I'll show the world true top-tier cooking.

00:16:42Some bottom-fleeling trash running a cheap diner couldn't even dream of reaching this level.

00:16:51Mr. Mayor, and everyone watching in the live stream, let me introduce you to my good-for-nothing little brother,

00:16:57Grayson.

00:16:58Never been smart.

00:16:59Only good for the dirty work in the back.

00:17:00He recently opened some dump called Sea Mist right over there.

00:17:05If you ever feel like your stomach's too full and you need to throw up, feel free to go try

00:17:11his chemical waste.

00:17:14Percy, you're too soft.

00:17:16Having that guy across the street is polluting our whole neighborhood.

00:17:20Mr. Mayor, here's my card.

00:17:22I'm good at making otoyu sushi.

00:17:24Are you crazy?

00:17:26A little place that can't even fit two people in the bathroom, and you think you can hand the mayor

00:17:30your business card?

00:17:31My restaurant is spotless, and my ingredients are the best.

00:17:36I don't think square footage determines quality.

00:17:39Grayson, stop embarrassing yourself here.

00:17:45Young man, you have something those greedy businessmen don't.

00:17:49You're calm.

00:17:50I like that.

00:17:52The mayor sure has a sense of humor.

00:17:55He's just teaching the young generation to stay humble.

00:17:59Grayson, the only reason the mayor hasn't kicked you out is out of respect for me.

00:18:04Stop any of your pathetic delusions.

00:18:14Please take a seat.

00:18:26Mr. Mayor, this is our signature dish, otoro sushi.

00:18:30I promise you'll love it.

00:18:34Iron Anchor's otoro sushi is one of a kind, Mr. Mayor.

00:18:37I guarantee you'll fall for it.

00:18:39The knife work, the technique, absolutely flawless.

00:18:43In the past, the otoro sushi really was one of a kind.

00:18:48But this time, without top quality ingredients and skilled knife work,

00:18:52the only thing coming out of that kitchen is a one of a kind piece of garbage.

00:19:19Oh my god, what the hell is that garbage?

00:19:23At that same moment, the otoro sushi I prepared was being carefully packed up

00:19:28and was already on its way.

00:19:30We are about to serve the very first dish from Seamist Restaurant.

00:19:36Everyone, stay sharp.

00:19:39Yes!

00:19:41Yes!

00:19:43Yes!

00:19:52Percy's prized otoro sushi was unveiled.

00:19:55Before anyone could admire it, a wave of rotten stench hit the room.

00:19:58His smile vanished.

00:20:00Guests gagged.

00:20:00The mayor slammed his fork down on the table in fury.

00:20:03Percy!

00:20:03This is the signature dish you've been bragging about?

00:20:05Open your damn eyes!

00:20:06Is this meant for humans?

00:20:07I held Mia close and watched.

00:20:09Cold.

00:20:10Percy's face went pale.

00:20:12Cold sweat dripped from his temples down into his collar.

00:20:14But he wasn't done.

00:20:15He fell back on his pathetic sales pitch, desperate to cover up the rot.

00:20:19No, Mr. Mayor, let me explain.

00:20:21This is an oxidation reaction, an advanced aging process for premium tuna.

00:20:25Advanced aging.

00:20:26No, he just served the mayor cheap.

00:20:29Old meat to cut costs.

00:20:30The live stream was going wild.

00:20:33The whole city was watching him feed garbage to the mayor.

00:20:36Fine.

00:20:36You're so confident in this process?

00:20:38Then don't waste it.

00:20:39Bring it to him.

00:20:40Eat it, Percy.

00:20:41Every last piece.

00:20:42Right now.

00:20:43No!

00:20:44You're resisting so hard.

00:20:45Is it because you think it's a piece of rotten meat, too?

00:20:48No!

00:20:49Mr. Mayor, I'll prove to you there's nothing wrong with it.

00:20:51The security guard stepped forward.

00:20:53The cold, intimidating pressure left Percy with no way out.

00:20:56Under the gaze of the citywide live stream, he was forced to swallow that rotten meat like

00:21:01a pathetic stray dog.

00:21:03He skimped on ingredient costs and threw the money away.

00:21:06Now he had to chew up the consequences himself.

00:21:09The mayor's fury was just the beginning.

00:21:11The real ruin of the Iron Anchor was just getting started.

00:21:19This is the pride of Surla Street?

00:21:21The face of our state's restaurant industry?

00:21:24Percy, you didn't just insult me.

00:21:26You insult the entire food safety laws of this city.

00:21:29Mr. Mayor, I swear on my life.

00:21:31The sushi is fine.

00:21:32I just drank too much last night.

00:21:33It's my stomach.

00:21:34It's upset.

00:21:34Percy's excuse sounded pathetic and hollow in front of the mayor and 500 live stream viewers.

00:21:39No one knew better than me.

00:21:40Eating rotten bluefin tuna would cause mackerel poisoning.

00:21:43Soon, Percy showed all the signs.

00:21:45The client who had signed next year's contract with him actually wanted to go help him.

00:21:57And just like that, Percy's noble image was gone, shattered in front of the live stream

00:22:03in the entire city.

00:22:05Percy wanted to stop it, but he couldn't move.

00:22:10Soon enough, the iron door to Iron Anchor's back storage was violently pushed over.

00:22:15A stench of formaldehyde mixed with rotting blood hit everyone in the face.

00:22:19Cardboard boxes piled up like metals, their outer layers covered in mold.

00:22:23The smell is absolutely disgusting!

00:22:25Just thinking about the food I ate makes me want to strangle Percy with my bare hand!

00:22:28Percy was dragged to the storage door like a filthy rag.

00:22:31The mayor pointed angrily at the inside of the back room.

00:22:34This is the best ingredient warehouse in all of New York?

00:22:36Percy, you better explain this now!

00:22:40Percy scrambled, saying it was all the supplier's fault that he was a victim too.

00:22:44Tears streamed down his face as he got all emotional.

00:22:46At first, some people actually believed him.

00:22:48After all, Iron Anchor's reputation had been perfect.

00:22:51That was until a contract signed with the shady supplier was pulled out of a drawer.

00:22:54A hundred dollars a play and you spent three cents on the meat?!

00:22:57Banned it.

00:22:58That's what it was.

00:22:58The money went to the cars.

00:23:00The fancy front.

00:23:01But the food, itself.

00:23:02He had zero respect for it.

00:23:03Mr. Mayor, let me explain.

00:23:05I was just trying to save money.

00:23:06I didn't know the supplier would give me bad meat.

00:23:08I'd give me bad meat!

00:23:09You didn't know?

00:23:11You're playing games with people's lives!

00:23:14Percy looked around in despair.

00:23:16Nothing but contempt.

00:23:17And the mayor's fury was even more terrifying than he'd imagined.

00:23:20If this is the best Surla Street has to offer, then I will shut down every single restaurant

00:23:23on this entire street!

00:23:24The whole place erupted.

00:23:25Every business owner's face dropped.

00:23:27If the whole street got shut down, they would lose countless future business deals.

00:23:31Percy, you animal!

00:23:32You want to serve trash?

00:23:33Fine!

00:23:33But don't drag the rest of us down with you!

00:23:35You disgusting little roach!

00:23:36Go to hell!

00:23:37That is human nature.

00:23:38When Percy was on top, they were his loyal supporters.

00:23:40The moment he fell, everyone wanted to kick him.

00:23:42While he was down, Mia looked worried.

00:23:44She was afraid my restaurant would get caught up in this too.

00:23:46I patted her hand.

00:23:47I'd just gotten my license.

00:23:48I was fully confident I could turn the tide on Surla Street.

00:23:51And if I timed it right, my chef should be here in a second.

00:23:57Percy panicked.

00:23:59Iron Anchor was facing closure.

00:24:00And me, his worthless little brother, bringing in a chef with the very same cut of fish.

00:24:05Grayson, what the hell do you think you're doing?

00:24:07Mr. Mayor, before you give up on this street, please give real Surla Street Cuisine one chance.

00:24:12Percy pulled himself up off the floor and stormed over to me, furious.

00:24:16That garbage from your $500 dump has no place in front of the mayor!

00:24:21I'm warning you.

00:24:22Throw that trash away!

00:24:23Mia was never one to just take it lying down.

00:24:25The second she heard that, she hauled off and slapped Percy right across the face.

00:24:28Wipe that disgusting superior look off your face, you arrogant jerk!

00:24:33Three minutes ago, you were serving the mayor garbage.

00:24:35Whatever my husband has in that box is worth more than you and your whole restaurant ever were!

00:24:39You dare put your hands on me?

00:24:41You shameless bitch!

00:24:43The mayor beat me to it.

00:24:44He had his security restrain Percy, then looked at the takeout box in my hand.

00:24:48I think I'd like to try something made by a man with some composure.

00:24:52See, Mr. Restaurant.

00:24:54Please enjoy.

00:25:09Wait!

00:25:10C-Mist shouldn't even be in the running!

00:25:12Everyone knows that place is a dump!

00:25:13Full of grease and rats!

00:25:15It doesn't even meet basic health and safety standards!

00:25:17Percy looked at me with that smug expression,

00:25:19like he'd finally cornered the clown.

00:25:21Too bad.

00:25:22This time, the joke was on him.

00:25:25Save the pity, Grayson.

00:25:26I know you tried really hard to steal first place from me.

00:25:29Too bad.

00:25:30Trying isn't enough.

00:25:31You'll never surpass me, little brother.

00:25:34Mr. Mayor.

00:25:35It would be my honor to lead the way and show everyone this garbage-dimp Grayson calls a restaurant.

00:25:43That place has been closed for ages.

00:25:44I heard the last owner was so bitter.

00:25:46He poured cooking oil all over the floors on his way out.

00:25:49You can't even walk in there.

00:25:50That's right.

00:25:51And he left all kinds of expired food in there, too.

00:25:53It's probably a full-blown rat kingdom by now.

00:25:55What right does a dump like that have to call itself a restaurant?

00:25:58What do we do?

00:26:00Mr. Mayor, and everyone here,

00:26:03as the owner of C-Mist Restaurant,

00:26:05I invite you all to come see it for yourselves.

00:26:07You idiot.

00:26:09Get ready to watch your precious restaurant get shut down.

00:26:12My dear fans,

00:26:13I'm about to show you the most chaotic,

00:26:16filthiest garbage dump on Surla Street.

00:26:19You cannot imagine how absolutely disgusting that place is.

00:26:26Percy, lying has consequences.

00:26:29It's totally fake.

00:26:30I guarantee you behind this door,

00:26:31it's nothing but trash and stink.

00:26:33Brace me.

00:26:34Just wait and see.

00:26:35Percy's smug smile kept growing.

00:26:37But all of that was about to come to a screeching halt

00:26:39the second I opened that door.

00:26:46This is impossible.

00:26:48Oh my God!

00:26:49In just a few days,

00:26:50that dump has completely changed.

00:26:53It's so clean and tidy.

00:26:54Way more pleasant to look at

00:26:56than Iron Anchor's tacky, flashy decorations.

00:27:03Grayson.

00:27:04Grayson.

00:27:04Your taste is just as impressive as your food.

00:27:13Man.

00:27:14This place is cleaner than an operating room.

00:27:17I worked around the clock,

00:27:18kneeling on that filthy floor,

00:27:19scrubbing every single crack with a brush.

00:27:22Percy spent his money on those gaudy chandeliers

00:27:24that blind you.

00:27:25I spent mine on every little detail you can touch.

00:27:27This is all just for show!

00:27:28You can fake the decor,

00:27:30but you can't fake the ingredients!

00:27:34Grayson, you're broke.

00:27:35Your monthly rent is 500 bucks.

00:28:06How can you afford pop-grade blue-fit tuna?

00:28:07Percy, take a good look.

00:28:08This is what you call garbage.

00:28:10No!

00:28:11You must have injected poison into these rotten fish!

00:28:13Sprayed them with chemicals!

00:28:14Who the hell is insulting my fish?!

00:28:21You are...

00:28:21I worked with Iron Anchor for a whole year.

00:28:24Not once did you bother to remember my name.

00:28:26Percy, you're an absolute idiot.

00:28:30You're Iron Anchor's biggest supplier from this past year!

00:28:33You traitor!

00:28:34You're the traitor!

00:28:35And premium ingredients should go to people

00:28:38who actually appreciate them!

00:28:41Mr. Mayor, I'm the largest seafood distributor in California.

00:28:44I hereby certify that all ingredients used by Seamist Restaurant

00:28:47are exclusively supplied through my special channel

00:28:50with the highest A-level safety rating.

00:28:52Mr. Grayson is the most knowledgeable person

00:28:55about ingredients I've ever met.

00:28:57That's why I ended all my contracts with Iron Anchor for him.

00:29:01Are you insane?!

00:29:02I give you millions of dollars a year!

00:29:04What about him?

00:29:05All he got was the lousy hundred grand I threw at him!

00:29:08After lashing out at the supplier,

00:29:10Percy turned his rage back on me.

00:29:12Grayson!

00:29:13You ungrateful snake!

00:29:15You took the hundred grand I gave you

00:29:17and used it to steal my supplier and become my enemy?!

00:29:20Don't you have any family loyalty at all?!

00:29:22Percy.

00:29:25Percy.

00:29:26Out of that hundred grand,

00:29:28ninety thousand was purchasing money I fronted for you.

00:29:33The remaining ten thousand

00:29:34was what you paid me for three years of working my ass off day and night.

00:29:40You thought you could buy my dignity.

00:29:42I'm taking it back with my own hands.

00:29:44We're even.

00:29:45And don't forget,

00:29:46this supplier was mine from the very beginning.

00:29:49Percy's eyes went unfocused.

00:29:50It looked like he was finally remembering how hard I worked a year ago,

00:29:54visiting supplier after supplier,

00:29:56screening through thousands of them to find this one.

00:29:59Percy wanted to keep arguing,

00:30:00but fate wasn't going to give him any more chances.

00:30:04Mr. Mayor,

00:30:05it's not just the ingredients.

00:30:06The entire interior of Iron Anchor is built with the cheapest,

00:30:08most flammable formalhyde-laden boards just painted over with a layer of gold.

00:30:11Iron Anchor is basically a poison gas chamber that would explode the second it touches fire.

00:30:18That's disgusting.

00:30:20All for show.

00:30:21Percy,

00:30:22get out of the restaurant industry.

00:30:25Mr. Mayor,

00:30:26I was wrong.

00:30:27I just wanted the restaurant to look better.

00:30:29You risked people's lives just to look good?

00:30:32Percy's tears rolled down his fake,

00:30:35lying face.

00:30:36He used to throw money in front of me

00:30:37and call me a country bumpin' who'd never seen the world.

00:30:40And now,

00:30:41that live-streaming empire he'd so carefully built

00:30:44was collapsing inch by inch in front of a global audience.

00:30:47I hereby declare,

00:30:49Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:30:51the industry benchmark restaurant for this year.

00:30:55Effective immediately,

00:30:56Iron Anchor's business license is permanently revoked.

00:31:00All assets are to be seized.

00:31:02Percy is under official investigation for food safety crimes

00:31:06and commercial fraud.

00:31:09Now,

00:31:09throw this cockroach out of here.

00:31:19Grayson!

00:31:20Save me!

00:31:21You're my own little brother.

00:31:22Your restaurant is right across the street.

00:31:24You can fix this.

00:31:25You have to.

00:31:26I gave him a year.

00:31:27A whole year.

00:31:29But all he ever learned was how to put on a show for his live screen.

00:31:32Grayson!

00:31:35Grayson,

00:31:35I'm begging you.

00:31:36You're tight with the mayor.

00:31:37Please put in a good word for me.

00:31:38You can't let them close my place.

00:31:40That's everything I've got.

00:31:41Everything you've got,

00:31:42Percy?

00:31:43You call rotten meat and fake gold paint everything you've got?

00:31:46Just don't shut me down.

00:31:47I'll do anything you want.

00:31:48I'll give you all the shares.

00:31:50You come back and be the boss.

00:31:51I'll work for you.

00:31:52I'll be your line cook.

00:31:53Percy,

00:31:54do you remember how you humiliated Grayson?

00:31:56You said he was only worth 2,000 bucks.

00:31:58You said a homeless guy off the street could replace him.

00:32:01A year ago,

00:32:02I begged him in the pouring rain just like this

00:32:05to pay the supplier what he owed.

00:32:07He rolled down his car window,

00:32:09blew smoke in my face,

00:32:10and told me I didn't understand business.

00:32:13Percy,

00:32:13your biggest mistake wasn't greed.

00:32:15It was that you never learned to respect food.

00:32:17Someone who can make the finest fish smell like death

00:32:20has no place in a kitchen.

00:32:23You're really going to just let me die?

00:32:24For old time's sake,

00:32:26since you want to be a line cook so bad,

00:32:28Sea Mist just happens to be looking for someone to clean the bathrooms.

00:32:312,000 a month.

00:32:32And the only reason I'm even offering it to you

00:32:34is out of respect for you being my big brother.

00:32:40Mr. Grayson,

00:32:41I'm officially transferring my $5 million annual banquet booking

00:32:44to Sea Mist Restaurant.

00:32:45Name your price.

00:32:45Just make sure that Oto Sushi shows up at my event.

00:32:48Grayson,

00:32:48this is a long-term letter of intent

00:32:50from the Manhattan Restaurant Association.

00:32:52We're willing to pay a 50% premium

00:32:53as long as Sea Mist agrees to be our partner.

00:32:55Three hours ago,

00:32:56these same people watched Percy humiliate me in front of everyone.

00:32:59They laughed at me,

00:32:59a lowly line cook who didn't know his place.

00:33:01Now,

00:33:02they're willing to pay double

00:33:02just to beg me for a partnership.

00:33:04Sea Mist will only sign with one partner in the next year.

00:33:07That spot,

00:33:08you'll have to fight for it yourselves.

00:33:10I have the strongest capital.

00:33:12That spot belongs to me.

00:33:13What can you offer besides money?

00:33:15I can provide the biggest advertising and sales channels.

00:33:18Get lost.

00:33:18This opportunity is mine.

00:33:24With the mayor's endorsement

00:33:25and the title of industry benchmark restaurant,

00:33:28Sea Mist was splattered all over countless posters.

00:33:32Customers poured into Sea Mist non-stop.

00:33:35Mia and I opened three more locations together.

00:33:38I never held back.

00:33:39I shared everything I knew.

00:33:41Sea Mist will always stand for healthy, delicious food.

00:33:51All those prepayments that should have gone into Iron Anchor's account,

00:33:54they were now flooding into mine instead.

00:33:57Oh my God,

00:33:58I can't believe my eyes.

00:34:00Grayson,

00:34:01in less than half an hour,

00:34:02the prepayments have already topped three million.

00:34:05We made it!

00:34:06Grayson,

00:34:07you deserve this.

00:34:08The restaurant industry doesn't need some performer who only knows how to lie.

00:34:12It needs craftsmen like you.

00:34:14People with soul when it comes to food.

00:34:17This is the contract for government catering for the next year.

00:34:26Pleasure doing business with you.

00:34:28At that moment,

00:34:28Percy,

00:34:29his face caked with mud,

00:34:31pressed himself against the window like a ghost,

00:34:34watching me sign contract after contract,

00:34:37signing away millions of dollars.

00:34:38Furious,

00:34:39he tried to get in,

00:34:40but the security guard at the door shoved him back,

00:34:43sending him tumbling down the steps.

00:34:45Get out of my way!

00:34:46That bastard Grayson took everything from me!

00:34:49This was supposed to be mine!

00:34:51Move along!

00:34:52This is no place for a homeless guy!

00:34:54He was out there watching.

00:34:56I was in here sitting.

00:34:58That single pane of glass was the line between heaven and hell.

00:35:02He used to say that without him,

00:35:04I'd be begging for food in Chinatown.

00:35:06Now,

00:35:07he can't even get past the door of my restaurant.

00:35:11Grayson!

00:35:12You traitor!

00:35:17Percy was curled up next to a stinking dumpster.

00:35:20His thousand-dollar tuxedo was caked with grime.

00:35:24He was too afraid to go home,

00:35:26because all the partners he'd arrogantly signed with before

00:35:29were now turning on him after Iron Anchor got shut down.

00:35:32What awaited him was massive penalty fees

00:35:35and the fury of every single one of those partners.

00:35:43Hello?

00:35:44Boss, just give me a little more time.

00:35:46Time?

00:35:47Percy, your old frozen meat got my license revoked.

00:35:50According to the contract,

00:35:51you owe me triple the penalty.

00:35:53That's two million dollars.

00:35:55If I don't see that money by tomorrow morning,

00:35:56you can go feed the fish in the Hudson River.

00:36:04Percy, this is James from Seafood Logistics.

00:36:07That industry benchmark prize you promised was total bullshit.

00:36:10I want my shipping fees and the 500,000 penalty.

00:36:12Transfer it now.

00:36:13Otherwise, I'm sending your address to every creditor in Manhattan.

00:36:17Percy pinned all his remaining hope on live streaming.

00:36:20He begged his viewers to send him money to save Iron Anchor.

00:36:23He made a complete fool of himself like a stray dog losing every shred of dignity.

00:36:28He did pathetic stunts.

00:36:29He even fought homeless people for food.

00:36:31You felled us garbage for so long.

00:36:33What right does an animal like you have to ask for our forgiveness?

00:36:36Report him.

00:36:37Make him disappear for good.

00:36:39No, no, no.

00:36:40If I hadn't skimped on that 90,000,

00:36:42if I hadn't pushed him away,

00:36:43that six million would have been mine.

00:36:45The mayor's praise would have been mine too.

00:36:47He finally understood.

00:36:49Losing me wasn't just losing a line cook.

00:36:51It was losing his only brain and his last chance to be a decent human being.

00:36:55The live stream ban was the final straw that broke Percy.

00:36:59He looked at Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:37:01glowing with lights,

00:37:02and finally broke down sobbing.

00:37:05I was wrong.

00:37:07Grayson, I was really wrong.

00:37:14Time to pay up.

00:37:19Hear my love.

00:37:22No, no.

00:37:23Grayson, help me.

00:37:25Help me.

00:37:28I took Mia out for a nice meal.

00:37:31Because we were so poor last year,

00:37:33I couldn't even feed my pregnant wife decent food more than a few times.

00:37:38Mia, thank you.

00:37:39For everything.

00:37:41These past three years.

00:37:43Grayson, I feel like I'm dreaming.

00:37:45A month ago, we were stressing over $500 in rent.

00:37:49Dreams end.

00:37:51But these numbers don't lie.

00:37:52Three days ago,

00:37:53I sat here watching Percy throw money around like it was nothing.

00:37:56Now,

00:37:57Sea Mist's weekly revenue alone equals his entire net profit from last year.

00:38:01Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands.

00:38:03Grayson,

00:38:04the prepayments and net profit,

00:38:06it's over six million?

00:38:07That's just the first week.

00:38:08With the mayor's endorsement,

00:38:09every big name in New York,

00:38:11politicians,

00:38:11and socialettes alike is lining up.

00:38:14We're already booked through Christmas next year.

00:38:16We're rich.

00:38:17We can give our child the best education.

00:38:20We never have to live under Percy's thumb again.

00:38:22I looked at Mia's excited face.

00:38:24It warmed my heart.

00:38:26To the future.

00:38:28Cheers.

00:38:30And Percy?

00:38:31At that very moment,

00:38:32he was huddled next to a dumpster,

00:38:34gnawling on someone else's disparted bread.

00:38:40I moved Mia out of that tiny rental apartment

00:38:42and bought the best estate in the city.

00:38:44Mr. Grayson,

00:38:45this is the most private estate in the entire city.

00:38:47It comes with its own helipad

00:38:48and a top of the security system.

00:38:50Do you like it?

00:38:51The sunlight here is beautiful.

00:38:53Perfect for our kid to run around on the grass someday.

00:38:55I never imagined I'd live in a place like this someday.

00:38:58Grayson,

00:38:58this is too expensive.

00:39:00Mia,

00:39:00you deserve the best.

00:39:01Just sign it.

00:39:02This will be our family's safe haven.

00:39:04Now,

00:39:05I bought the estate

00:39:06that Percy never even dared to dream of stepping foot in.

00:39:09And him?

00:39:10He's hiding in some dark corner,

00:39:12running from the creditors.

00:39:14The soft opening of Seamist branch was a huge success.

00:39:16We can officially launch the expansion plan now.

00:39:19Yes,

00:39:19Mr. Grayson.

00:39:20The top 10 commercial districts

00:39:21are all fighting for us to set up there.

00:39:23The contracts are ready.

00:39:24Tell them this.

00:39:25Seamist has only one standard.

00:39:27The finest ingredients,

00:39:28absolute transparency.

00:39:30Percy failed because he looked at his customers

00:39:31and saw cash cows.

00:39:33I succeeded because I treat food like a religion.

00:39:36Expanding the business isn't about hoarding money.

00:39:39It's about letting more people around the world enjoy this food.

00:39:42Grayson,

00:39:42we're really starting a new life.

00:39:47The first stop for our expansion?

00:39:49That port Percy always wanted to take over for himself.

00:40:05Goodbye, Grayson.

00:40:06You made it.

00:40:08You goddamn piece of trash.

00:40:10You actually sold banned meat?

00:40:11Are you even human?

00:40:12Dad,

00:40:14I was just trying to make money.

00:40:16Who knew that ungrateful snake,

00:40:17Grayson,

00:40:18would turn on me?

00:40:19Turn on you?

00:40:20If it weren't for him,

00:40:21we'd all be in prison right now because of you.

00:40:24We have no place for a beast like you.

00:40:26I was tasting the finest wine in my estate.

00:40:29Percy was in that old house,

00:40:30taking the beating my parents should have given him long ago.

00:40:33He used to think he was the pride of the family.

00:40:35In truth,

00:40:35he was just a cowardly,

00:40:36rotten parasite.

00:40:37You're a monster!

00:40:38Get out!

00:40:39Stop hitting me!

00:40:41Grayson is loaded.

00:40:42He's got tens of millions now.

00:40:43Make him help me!

00:40:46You still have the nerve to mention him?

00:40:49When you paid him 2,000 bucks,

00:40:51did you ever stop to think he was your little brother?

00:40:53Get out!

00:40:54Go be a line cook out on the streets!

00:41:04His nightmare had only just begun.

00:41:16What happened at Iron Anchor was a misunderstanding.

00:41:19I already switched suppliers.

00:41:22Just lift the band, please.

00:41:24Give me one more day.

00:41:26Mr. Percy,

00:41:27your restaurant is on the national blacklist now.

00:41:30Old frozen meat and formalide-laden decor?

00:41:32Those search terms are number one on Google.

00:41:34Stop wasting our time.

00:41:36Get out and don't bring that stench into our office.

00:41:39Reputation takes a year to build

00:41:41and one plate of rotten Otoro sushi to destroy.

00:41:49Lisa!

00:41:51Where are you going?

00:41:52My cards are frozen.

00:41:53You have to help me.

00:41:54Help you?

00:41:55Percy?

00:41:56Right now,

00:41:56you're worse than a homeless guy on the street.

00:41:59These bottles are my appearance fee for putting on that show with you for a year.

00:42:03Don't contact me again.

00:42:04I don't want creditors thinking I'm your partner.

00:42:07The love he was so proud of?

00:42:11It ran faster than anyone the moment Iron Anchor got shut down.

00:42:15That's my car!

00:42:17That's my money!

00:42:25Watching Percy fall apart like this,

00:42:27I couldn't help but feel grateful that the woman by my side is Mia.

00:42:34With nowhere left to go,

00:42:36Percy stole mom and dad's retirement savings

00:42:38and borrowed a huge junk of money from the neighbors.

00:42:41My parents called me to handle it.

00:42:43I bought the most expensive estate in Manhattan,

00:42:46a place with a garden bigger than Percy's entire restaurant.

00:42:49I brought Mia back here to show my parents that their younger son,

00:42:52the one they called just a line cook,

00:42:54was the true pride of the family.

00:43:00Mom, just $20,000.

00:43:02Give it to me and I'll pay you back 10 times when I'm back on top.

00:43:05You animal!

00:43:06You stole the money mom needs for her heart surgery

00:43:08and you scamp the neighbors.

00:43:10We can't even show our faces outside anymore.

00:43:12Are you going to drive us crazy?

00:43:13Grayson, you ungrateful snake.

00:43:15You live in a mansion,

00:43:16wear suits worth tens of thousands

00:43:18and you just watch your own brother die?

00:43:20Dad, mom, here are the keys to your new house,

00:43:22a villa I bought for you on the Upper East Side.

00:43:24It comes with the best in-home doctors.

00:43:27Percy, don't you dare use the word family to disgust me.

00:43:30The moment you stole their retirement money,

00:43:31you should have realized you're already out of this family.

00:43:38Money, that's mine!

00:43:40You owe me!

00:43:42This money is for the neighbors.

00:43:43As for you, Percy,

00:43:45you don't deserve to touch a single cent.

00:43:46I was wearing clothes he could never afford in his lifetime.

00:43:49I was standing at a height he would never reach.

00:43:52And he was down on the ground like a dog,

00:43:54finally realizing he had lost.

00:44:03Good morning, Mr. Grayson.

00:44:05Thank you for the jobs you've provided.

00:44:07Mr. Grayson,

00:44:08Seamist Restaurant is truly the pride of this entire street.

00:44:12A month ago,

00:44:13when I walked down this street,

00:44:14everyone looked at me like I was a joke.

00:44:16Now,

00:44:16I own half the storefronts on this block,

00:44:18and the looks people give me have gone from contempt to respect.

00:44:22Suddenly,

00:44:23from the end of the street,

00:44:24a sharp scream cut through the air,

00:44:26followed by a sickening crunch.

00:44:28Two million in penalties!

00:44:30You promised to pay today!

00:44:31Where's the money?

00:44:36He's got money.

00:44:37That's my own brother.

00:44:38Go ask him!

00:44:39He could sneeze and have enough to pay you all off!

00:44:42A piece of trash like you!

00:44:43Dares to call him your brother!

00:44:44He just issued a statement in the paper!

00:44:46He's cutting all ties with you!

00:44:47No money, huh?

00:44:48Then we do it the old way.

00:44:49Let's start with two fingers.

00:44:56I took Mia's hand

00:44:58and stepped through the magnificent doors of Seamist Restaurant.

00:45:00Behind me,

00:45:01Percy's screams for help echoed

00:45:03as the debt cappers dragged him into the shadows.

00:45:05Please!

00:45:06Go tell those guys,

00:45:08don't let any blood get spilled in front of my restaurant,

00:45:10and make it quick.

00:45:12Yes, Mr. Grayson.

00:45:26From today on,

00:45:27Seamist is no longer just a restaurant.

00:45:29We're going to build the most legitimate food supply chain in this city.

00:45:32And the people on Surlate,

00:45:34if they're clean,

00:45:35no tricks,

00:45:36no dirt,

00:45:36I'll double their pay.

00:45:37Yes, Grayson!

00:45:39Grayson,

00:45:40congratulations on the new company.

00:45:41I left that loser, Percy,

00:45:43because I could see you were the real deal.

00:45:45The one who actually gets things done.

00:45:47Grayson,

00:45:48does Seamist need a PR director?

00:45:50Or maybe a personal assistant?

00:45:52I know everything you like,

00:45:53just like I knew everything about Percy.

00:45:56Lisa, you sure knew Percy.

00:45:57You knew exactly how to kick him when he was down.

00:46:00And you know exactly how to crawl back like a parasite

00:46:02the second you smell money.

00:46:03Miss Lisa,

00:46:04Seamist doesn't need an assistant,

00:46:05but we are looking for a cleaner to take out the trash.

00:46:08But take a look at your clothes.

00:46:09I doubt you could even hold a rag, Stady.

00:46:11Get this piece of cheap,

00:46:13perfumed garbage out of here.

00:46:14From today on,

00:46:15if she shows up within a kilometer of Seamist,

00:46:18call the cops immediately.

00:46:19Grayson!

00:46:20Don't get cocky!

00:46:22You were just a line cook too!

00:46:24Ah!

00:46:25Ah!

00:46:26I watched her pathetic retreat.

00:46:28In the eyes of opportunists like her,

00:46:30every spot next to me has a price tag.

00:46:32But they don't know.

00:46:34Mia lived with me in that leaky rental apartment.

00:46:37I know for certain.

00:46:38She is the one and only love my life.

00:46:41Why do you keep staring at me?

00:46:46Mia.

00:46:48I think I owe you a grand wedding.

00:46:52I think I owe you a grand wedding.

00:47:03Mr. Grayson,

00:47:04do you take Mia to be your wife?

00:47:06To cherish her in both poverty and wealth.

00:47:09I do.

00:47:11I do.

00:47:12Today,

00:47:13all those wealthy socialettes who used to mock us as the poor couple

00:47:17are sitting right there in the audience,

00:47:19applauding us with the most flattering cheers.

00:47:23This is the coronation I promised my wife.

00:47:32Grayson,

00:47:32save me!

00:47:33The debt collures broke my fingers.

00:47:34I'm in the alley,

00:47:35right outside the church.

00:47:36Please,

00:47:37just give me 50,000 one last time.

00:47:41Is it him?

00:47:50Someone who doesn't matter.

00:47:52He doesn't get to disturb our wedding.

00:47:54I'm not going to pile on someone already down.

00:47:57Not out of mercy.

00:47:58He's just not worth my time.

00:48:00But I'm not a pushover either.

00:48:02Kindness needs teeth,

00:48:04or it means nothing.

00:48:14That was mine.

00:48:15That should have been mine.

00:48:17That six million dollars,

00:48:19the fame,

00:48:19the woman,

00:48:20all of it was mine.

00:48:22I bought the most expensive billboard in Times Square

00:48:25and played my wedding video on loop.

00:48:27Percy watched the screen in fury.

00:48:29Percy,

00:48:30your big shot brother already said he's stripping you of his last name.

00:48:33You don't even have a surname anymore now.

00:48:35He's got money.

00:48:35He's got billions.

00:48:37Go kill him.

00:48:38Kill him,

00:48:38and all that money becomes mine.

00:48:40Kill him?

00:48:41Grayson is the mayor's right-hand band now.

00:48:43He's got thousands of bodyguards.

00:48:45But you,

00:48:46your eyeballs are worth something.

00:48:47How about we take them as interest first?

00:48:52Grayson,

00:48:53you think you've won?

00:48:54Your woman's about to give birth, right?

00:48:56You're going to regret this.

00:48:58I'm going to destroy your happiness.

00:49:00Completely.

00:49:01I thought he would just wither away in his despair.

00:49:04I underestimated how deeply greed and jealousy can twist into a person's soul.

00:49:10A vicious plan was closing in on me.

00:49:21Grayson,

00:49:22you live in a mansion worth thousands of square feet,

00:49:25and you're going to let me freeze to death out here?

00:49:28Grayson,

00:49:28you know,

00:49:29he is your own brother.

00:49:30Can't you give him one more chance?

00:49:32A year ago,

00:49:32Percy was throwing money around at Iron Anchor

00:49:35while mom and dad lived in that leaky old house.

00:49:37He never once mentioned family.

00:49:39Now that he's drowning,

00:49:40he's using our elderly parents to play the guilt card.

00:49:43That kind of guilt is disgusted to me

00:49:45even more than that plate of rotten otosushi.

00:49:53Brother,

00:49:54save me!

00:49:55Just transfer 10% of Sea Mist shares to me,

00:49:59and the creditors will leave me alone!

00:50:01Mom and dad,

00:50:01please say something for me!

00:50:03Grayson,

00:50:04those deck cleapers are beating Percy half to death!

00:50:06He still has the strength to beg.

00:50:08He still has the strength to come here.

00:50:10He's perfectly capable of pulling himself out of this mess.

00:50:13You cold-blooded freak!

00:50:23You tried to hurt your own little brother?

00:50:27Mom,

00:50:28dad,

00:50:29this is the son you wanted me to help.

00:50:31He never once thought of us as family.

00:50:35I never kick a man when he's down,

00:50:38but I will not repay evil with kindness.

00:50:42In that moment,

00:50:43his last family card was burned to ash by my own hand.

00:50:48You animal!

00:50:49Now we only have one son,

00:50:51Grayson!

00:50:52Don't you ever show your face in front of us again!

00:50:54No,

00:50:55no,

00:50:55no!

00:50:56Mom!

00:50:57Dad!

00:50:57No,

00:50:58no,

00:50:58mom!

00:50:59No!

00:51:00No!

00:51:01No!

00:51:02No!

00:51:03That hopeless bastard.

00:51:06Grayson,

00:51:07it was our fault for asking you to help him.

00:51:10Don't worry about it,

00:51:11mom.

00:51:12Mr. Grayson,

00:51:13it's bad.

00:51:14While your parents were asleep,

00:51:15a man claiming to be their son forced his way in and took their bags.

00:51:19That animal?

00:51:20Those bags had mom and dad's life savings.

00:51:22They're only retirement money.

00:51:26I thought Percy would just crawl into some corner and wait to die after being exposed.

00:51:31I underestimated how desperate a gambler with nothing left to loss can become.

00:51:41He didn't steal that money to pay off his debts.

00:51:43He stole it to feed his delusional dream of a comeback.

00:51:49Grayson,

00:51:50we found him.

00:51:51Percy is hooked up with an underground factory in Brooklyn.

00:51:53They produce illegal chemical flavorings that are highly addictive.

00:51:57He's trying to use those poisons to copy sea mists' taste and force his way back into the market.

00:52:01For a little money, he's willing to do something like this.

00:52:16Get the best medical team in the country.

00:52:1824-hour care for mom and dad.

00:52:20Do whatever it takes to keep them from finding out what that bastard Percy has done.

00:52:24As for Percy,

00:52:25I'm going to make him pay.

00:52:27Before,

00:52:28I just wanted to see him broken on the streets.

00:52:31Now,

00:52:31I'm going to take him out myself.

00:52:39Talk!

00:52:41What did that ungrateful bastard give you?

00:52:43How dare you call him the most conscientious chef in Manhattan on livestream?

00:52:48He was about to pass out from hunger and I gave him a burger.

00:52:51He's a good man.

00:52:53You're the real demon.

00:52:56A good man?

00:52:58I'll break the hand that fed him.

00:53:00You're the real demon.

00:53:05Percy, go ahead.

00:53:06Touch that hand and see what happens.

00:53:09Grayson!

00:53:10You think just because you're some big shot now, you're untouchable?

00:53:13This old man insulted me.

00:53:15I'll kill him.

00:53:20My hand!

00:53:21Grayson, you crazy bastard!

00:53:23That one's for the burger.

00:53:26My rule is simple.

00:53:27A kindness,

00:53:28I return it tenfold.

00:53:30A slight,

00:53:31I break the bone.

00:53:32And from that,

00:53:33delivered it.

00:53:37Sir,

00:53:38an apartment on the Upper East Side

00:53:40and a restaurant on Sorelli Street.

00:53:43They're yours now.

00:53:44Mr. Grayson,

00:53:47this is too much.

00:53:49This is nothing next to that burger you gave me back then.

00:53:53Percy lay there in the filthy water,

00:53:55watching the trash he'd just been kicking

00:53:57suddenly become the property owner he'd only ever dreamt.

00:54:00Jealousy and pain and joking happen soon.

00:54:11While I sat atop Seamist restaurant,

00:54:14enjoying the rich aroma of premium Wagyu,

00:54:17Percy was hiding in the stinking alleys of the slums,

00:54:20trying to make his last desperate comeback.

00:54:23Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:54:26You seeing this?

00:54:27This is what real charity looks like.

00:54:30Seamist charges thousands for one meal.

00:54:33That's robbery!

00:54:34My bliss box is only $9.99.

00:54:37$9.99!

00:54:39Get it while it lasts!

00:54:41You losers!

00:54:42Eat it or don't,

00:54:43I don't care.

00:54:44Once I save up enough to buy out the Seamist,

00:54:47you could beg for it on your knees.

00:54:48Get lost!

00:54:49All of you haters, get lost!

00:54:52He had become a complete outcast,

00:54:54despised by the entire internet.

00:54:56He was poisoning those poor people,

00:54:58using that nerve-destroying addictive flavoring to make money,

00:55:02dreaming of making a comeback.

00:55:03He was night.

00:55:04The foundation of business has never been violent addiction.

00:55:07It's absolute control over the global supply chain.

00:55:14Ha ha ha ha!

00:55:16Grayson, you came to laugh at me?

00:55:18Look!

00:55:19Look at all these people in line!

00:55:21My capital is doubling!

00:55:23Soon I'll be able to buy out your fake little restaurant!

00:55:26What have you got to fight me with?

00:55:29In Seamist Group's name,

00:55:30inform the Global Spice Association.

00:55:32From this moment on,

00:55:33whoever sells one gram of spice

00:55:35to any factory connected to Percy

00:55:36will be permanently erased from the global supply chain.

00:55:39Spice?

00:55:39I've got money, you idiot!

00:55:41I'll just buy some from Chinatown!

00:55:42Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:55:44Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:55:46What?

00:55:48Not just the big suppliers?

00:55:49Even the small workshops are canceling?

00:55:51They're demanding triple the refund?

00:55:53Without spice,

00:55:54I can't cover up the bitterness

00:55:55of all that expired rotten meat!

00:55:56Hello?

00:55:57Percy,

00:55:58without fire and salt,

00:55:59you can't even cook a plate of garbage.

00:56:02I cut off his last lifeline.

00:56:12Leo,

00:56:13you're the person Grayson trusts the most.

00:56:15Just put one drop of this vial into his tuna.

00:56:18This five million and shares in the new company,

00:56:21it's all yours.

00:56:23Five million.

00:56:24Gotta admit,

00:56:25that's tempting.

00:56:26Ha ha ha ha ha!

00:56:27Good!

00:56:27That arrogant bastard Grayson,

00:56:29he never imagined he'd be betrayed by someone he saved.

00:56:33Percy,

00:56:34looks like you forgot.

00:56:35Leo was about to go under,

00:56:36and I'm the one who pulled him out.

00:56:38Your filthy money couldn't even buy back the life I saved for him back then.

00:56:42When I save someone,

00:56:44loyalty is in their blood.

00:56:47Percy's blood?

00:56:48It's pure,

00:56:49rotting greed.

00:56:50Trying to buy loyalty with filthy garbage like that

00:56:53is basically him executing whatever intelligence he had left.

00:56:58Tell me,

00:56:59if you drank that stuff you cooked up yourself,

00:57:02what do you think would happen?

00:57:03No.

00:57:05No.

00:57:06Grayson,

00:57:07I'm your own brother.

00:57:09Don't kill me.

00:57:10Kill you?

00:57:12That would dirty my basement.

00:57:16Send him back.

00:57:17Crawling in the mud,

00:57:18that's the only thing that suits him.

00:57:20He took a step against me,

00:57:21so I'll make sure he never walks straight again.

00:57:23His dignity?

00:57:25I've stomped it straight into the gutter.

00:57:30Starting today,

00:57:31the Sea Mist Group is acquiring every last shop on Surla Street.

00:57:35All of you who didn't follow Percy when he was doing his dirty work,

00:57:39you each receive a 5% in the original shares.

00:57:45I came back to rebuild,

00:57:47not to take revenge.

00:57:48I wanted these honest people to know,

00:57:51follow Grayson,

00:57:52and even a vegetable seller can stand tall

00:57:55and make money right here in Manhattan.

00:58:01Hurry up.

00:58:02Just give me some bread.

00:58:03I'm starving.

00:58:04Here.

00:58:04Mr. Grayson specifically asked for this,

00:58:07for some special people.

00:58:09Three-day-old stale ends.

00:58:12I watched him.

00:58:16He once wanted to starve me.

00:58:19Now,

00:58:20he's only breathing because I choose to throw him scraps.

00:58:25Percy, you're not off the hook yet.

00:58:27That illegal factory's poison?

00:58:29Time for you to take a sip yourself.

00:58:37Everyone,

00:58:38Sea Mist restaurants' so-called natural ingredients

00:58:41are nothing but a lie for the rich.

00:58:43Today,

00:58:44I'm going to expose Grayson's crimes,

00:58:46monopolizing spices,

00:58:47and driving up prices.

00:58:52Our tech-based food costs only 1% of Sea Mistas,

00:58:56but tastes exactly the same.

00:58:58Grayson's era is over!

00:59:01I saw Percy's little circus act on the screen,

00:59:03and it did nothing to me.

00:59:04He's cozying up to those drug manufacturers

00:59:06who skate just inside the law

00:59:08trying to define great food with cheap-muckle garbage.

00:59:10He doesn't understand.

00:59:11Real top-tier ingredients are a gift from the earth and the sun,

00:59:14not some molecular arrangement in a lab.

00:59:21Today,

00:59:21the Sea Mist group will roll out

00:59:23the global restaurant platinum standard.

00:59:25Any restaurant that does not meet

00:59:27the natural supply chain audit

00:59:28will be removed from the global procurement

00:59:30while pissed for good.

00:59:33Mr. Grayson's proposal

00:59:35is a beacon for the restaurant industry,

00:59:37and we support it 100%.

00:59:40While Percy was still in that dark little corner

00:59:42trying to smear my name,

00:59:44I was at the top of the food chain,

00:59:46rewriting the rules of the game.

00:59:49He thinks he's competing with me.

00:59:51The truth is,

00:59:52he's just swarming between my fingers.

00:59:55Ah!

00:59:56This is impossible!

00:59:57Why would the WTO stand up for a guy

00:59:59who used to be a line cook?

01:00:03Leo, tell the people next door

01:00:04that my press conference is over.

01:00:07Now,

01:00:08it's time to take out the trash.

01:00:17Grayson!

01:00:18This is illegal entry!

01:00:19My tech food

01:00:20is the future of the industry!

01:00:22The future of the industry?

01:00:24This chemical waste

01:00:25that makes people hallucinate?

01:00:27This bowl of plain

01:00:29kanji,

01:00:30made simply with rice

01:00:31from the 40th parallel north

01:00:32and spring water from Crimea.

01:00:34Judges, please.

01:00:37This is

01:00:38the taste of a mother's cooking.

01:00:40This is the pure warmth of the earth.

01:00:41Today,

01:00:42I destroyed all his hypocrisy

01:00:43and arrogance

01:00:44with a single bowl of plain kanji.

01:00:46A true master chef

01:00:47doesn't need complex recipes.

01:00:48All he needs

01:00:49is a heart that respects nature.

01:00:50Percy's lab-made perfect flavor?

01:00:52Compared to the real deal,

01:00:54it's just a toxic fraud.

01:00:55This

01:00:56is the molecular formula

01:00:57for your synthetic meat.

01:01:00There's a high dose

01:01:01of neural blockers in this.

01:01:02Keep eating it

01:01:03and you'll go crazy.

01:01:05Percy,

01:01:05this isn't cooking.

01:01:06It's straight up murder!

01:01:10Murderer!

01:01:11Get out of Manhattan!

01:01:12Go to hell,

01:01:13you piece of trash!

01:01:14No!

01:01:15This isn't true!

01:01:16Grayson,

01:01:16you're setting me up!

01:01:17Percy,

01:01:18the moment you decided

01:01:19to poison the world

01:01:20with your drugs,

01:01:20the gates of hell

01:01:21were already open for you.

01:01:27Percy knelt on the ground

01:01:28covered in filth,

01:01:29clinging to his father's legs

01:01:30and wailing.

01:01:31His illegal lab

01:01:32had just been raided

01:01:33by the police.

01:01:33He was now a wanted criminal

01:01:35across the country.

01:01:35Dad,

01:01:37Mom,

01:01:37save me!

01:01:38Grayson is gonna kill me!

01:01:39He's gonna throw me

01:01:40into the meat-grander

01:01:42with all those creditors!

01:01:45Percy!

01:01:47You are still

01:01:48my eldest son

01:01:49after all.

01:01:54Grayson,

01:01:55could you maybe...

01:02:02Mom,

01:02:02even now,

01:02:03you still think

01:02:03he just made a mistake?

01:02:04The first one,

01:02:06this is the pension

01:02:06transfer authorization

01:02:07he personally signed

01:02:08while you were both

01:02:09in the hospital.

01:02:10The second one,

01:02:11this is the contract

01:02:11where he mortgaged

01:02:12this family home

01:02:13to underground loan sharks

01:02:14behind your backs.

01:02:18You animal!

01:02:20You even stole

01:02:20our funeral fund!

01:02:21Do you want the two of us

01:02:22to die on the street?

01:02:23Dad,

01:02:24I was trying to make

01:02:24a comeback!

01:02:25Once my chemical sauce sells,

01:02:26I could buy you

01:02:26a hundred penthouses!

01:02:27Go.

01:02:28Just go, Percy.

01:02:29I don't have a son

01:02:31like you anymore.

01:02:32Percy,

01:02:33the biggest mistake

01:02:34you ever made

01:02:35was treating everyone

01:02:36around you

01:02:37as sacrificial lambs

01:02:38for your own success.

01:02:40Starting today,

01:02:41you are out of this family.

01:02:44Percy,

01:02:45do you remember

01:02:45what you said?

01:02:46That one of us

01:02:47would take over the world

01:02:48and the other

01:02:48would fade into obscurity?

01:02:49I'm going to make sure

01:02:50you watch me

01:02:51take over the world.

01:02:52Grayson,

01:02:52you goddamn bastard!

01:02:58Grayson,

01:02:58you said you wanted

01:02:59to settle family

01:03:00out counts on this day.

01:03:02If you don't have

01:03:03solid evidence,

01:03:04you know the consequences.

01:03:06The Thorn family rule

01:03:07is pragmatism,

01:03:09but in dismantations,

01:03:10rules are just a cover-up

01:03:12for his greed.

01:03:13A year ago,

01:03:13Percy stood at a family

01:03:14gathering and mocked

01:03:15these hands of mine,

01:03:17saying they were only good

01:03:17for holding a kitchen knife.

01:03:19Today,

01:03:19I'm not just taking back

01:03:20my dignity.

01:03:21I'm tearing apart

01:03:22his lies with my own hands.

01:03:23He thought being family

01:03:24would save him,

01:03:25like a free pass.

01:03:27What he didn't know

01:03:27is that before absolute rules,

01:03:29every single betrayal

01:03:30comes with a price.

01:03:31First crime,

01:03:32exploitation.

01:03:33In the three years

01:03:34at Iron Anchor,

01:03:35he withheld $90,000

01:03:36of my front propjorkan payment

01:03:37and treated me

01:03:38like cheap liber.

01:03:39Second crime,

01:03:40poisoning.

01:03:40He colluded with chemical companies

01:03:42and added nerve-blocking agents

01:03:43to the ingredients.

01:03:44This is a direct assault

01:03:45on the hundred-year reputation.

01:03:47Third crime,

01:03:48attempted murder.

01:03:49He tried to attack

01:03:50and harm me.

01:03:51Oh!

01:03:52You animal!

01:03:53You dared to harm

01:03:55your own brother?

01:03:56Fourth crime,

01:03:57and the most unforgivable one,

01:03:58embezzlement.

01:03:59While our parents

01:04:00were in the hospital,

01:04:01he stole their pension

01:04:02and mortgaged

01:04:03the family home.

01:04:04He tried to push

01:04:04the very people

01:04:05who raised him

01:04:06into the Hudson River.

01:04:07No!

01:04:07That was all for business!

01:04:09Grayson,

01:04:09you're insane!

01:04:11Evidence is cold,

01:04:12but people's hearts are hot.

01:04:13The moment those four crimes

01:04:14came together,

01:04:15to these elders,

01:04:15he was no longer

01:04:16the hope of the family.

01:04:17He was a rotting sword

01:04:18that had to be cut out.

01:04:19You worthless bastard!

01:04:20What do you have to say

01:04:21for yourself?

01:04:28Elder,

01:04:28even if I was wrong,

01:04:29I'm the only business genius

01:04:31in this family.

01:04:32Grayson is just a cook.

01:04:33He can't protect

01:04:33the family's legacy.

01:04:35A business genius?

01:04:37Parsi,

01:04:38all your so-called management

01:04:39is just chasing

01:04:40internet fame

01:04:40while clinging

01:04:41to the dying

01:04:42Iron Anchor restaurant.

01:04:47This is CMIST Group's

01:04:48valuation.

01:04:50$100 billion.

01:04:51I don't just control

01:04:52one-third of the

01:04:53top-tier supply gen.

01:04:54I also have the

01:04:55industry medal

01:04:55personally awarded

01:04:56by the World Trade Organization.

01:04:58I wasn't showing them money,

01:04:59but absolute dominance.

01:05:00In this world,

01:05:01capital speaks,

01:05:02and the highest level

01:05:03of capital,

01:05:03it makes people kneel.

01:05:05Percy thought he was

01:05:06running a business.

01:05:06Me?

01:05:07I'm running an era.

01:05:08When I spread out

01:05:09these reports enough

01:05:09to buy half of New York,

01:05:10his pathetic little assets

01:05:11wouldn't even be enough

01:05:12to pay my taxes.

01:05:13One-

01:05:15100 billion?

01:05:16Grayson,

01:05:17you did this in just

01:05:18one year?

01:05:18Please,

01:05:19Mr. Grayson,

01:05:20take your place

01:05:20as the head of the family.

01:05:22That's mine!

01:05:23That was supposed

01:05:24to be mine!

01:05:25Grayson,

01:05:26what right do you have,

01:05:27you lowly line cook?

01:05:28Percy,

01:05:29take a good look.

01:05:30In this world,

01:05:31the strong make the rules.

01:05:32The weak

01:05:34just wait to die.

01:05:36I stand at the summit,

01:05:37looking down at him.

01:05:38He once wanted me to kneel.

01:05:40Now,

01:05:41he wasn't even worthy

01:05:42to lift his head

01:05:43and look at me.

01:05:51Thorn Percy,

01:05:52from this moment on,

01:05:53you no longer carry

01:05:54the Thorn name.

01:05:55You are out of this family.

01:05:57No,

01:05:57you can't tear it!

01:05:58I am a Thorn!

01:05:59I have Thorn blood

01:06:00running through my veins!

01:06:01Without the family,

01:06:02the creditors would tear

01:06:03Percy to pieces.

01:06:04I knew that,

01:06:05and I didn't help it.

01:06:06Percy,

01:06:07the moment you stole

01:06:07mum and dad's pension,

01:06:08you had no blood relation left.

01:06:10I watched that page

01:06:11get consumed by the flames,

01:06:12turning to ash.

01:06:13In Thorn family tradition,

01:06:14being expelled

01:06:15means social death.

01:06:16From now on,

01:06:16he is no one's son,

01:06:17no one's brother.

01:06:18As a nameless nobody

01:06:18in the filthiest sewers,

01:06:20he will pay back

01:06:20every blood bet he owed.

01:06:21I want you to live

01:06:24as a man with no name.

01:06:26Grayson!

01:06:27You bastard!

01:06:29Without my hundred thousand dollars,

01:06:31you'd still be a cockroach

01:06:32in the gutter!

01:06:33A pathetic,

01:06:34lowly line cook!

01:06:44From this day forward,

01:06:45the Thorn family

01:06:46has no Percy.

01:06:47I looked up at the skyscrapers

01:06:49in the distance.

01:06:57No money!

01:06:58Then pay with your life!

01:07:00The Thorn family

01:07:01has already thrown you

01:07:02away like garbage.

01:07:04Right now,

01:07:05you're worse than

01:07:05the rats this alley.

01:07:10Please,

01:07:11just give me one more day.

01:07:12Just one day!

01:07:14Grayson has money.

01:07:15He has hundreds of billions!

01:07:17He could pluck a hair

01:07:19off his body

01:07:19and it would be enough

01:07:20to pay you all back.

01:07:25In Manhattan,

01:07:26the highest form of rejection

01:07:27isn't insults.

01:07:28It's silence.

01:07:30Right now,

01:07:31I'm sitting within

01:07:31arm rage of him,

01:07:32but I can't even be bothered

01:07:33to lift a finger.

01:07:34The moment he stole

01:07:35our parents' last bit

01:07:36of survival money,

01:07:37he lost even the right

01:07:38to die inside my thoughts.

01:07:40Grayson!

01:07:41My good little brother!

01:07:42Save me!

01:07:43They want my organs!

01:07:45They're gonna chop me up

01:07:46and feed me to the face!

01:07:47Give me a million!

01:07:48No, 500,000!

01:07:49Just that much!

01:08:06Percy used to say

01:08:07that money was the only

01:08:08true faith in this world.

01:08:10Since he loves money so much,

01:08:12I'll let him feel

01:08:13what it's like

01:08:13when that money

01:08:14becomes a pile of stones

01:08:15crushing his spine.

01:08:24Percy!

01:08:25This is the money

01:08:26you owe us!

01:08:26The price of our sweat!

01:08:28Our blood!

01:08:29Take these bills

01:08:29and crawl back

01:08:30to your hell!

01:08:39Money!

01:08:39My money!

01:08:42Grayson,

01:08:42you finally gave me money!

01:08:44I win!

01:08:46Percy,

01:08:46take a good look.

01:08:47The thing you treat

01:08:48as your religion,

01:08:49to me,

01:08:50is just spare change

01:08:51for trash.

01:08:54I used to be a line cook

01:08:56worth only $2,000.

01:08:58Now,

01:08:59I've made him understand.

01:09:00In front of absolute skill

01:09:01and absolute rules,

01:09:03all a greedy man

01:09:04will ever get

01:09:04is a pile of worthless paper.

01:09:17Listen up,

01:09:18everyone.

01:09:19From today on,

01:09:21there's only one standard

01:09:22on Manhattan's dining tables.

01:09:24The Sea Mist

01:09:25Ethical Chef Standard.

01:09:28Any chef who makes it

01:09:29onto Sea Mist's whitelist,

01:09:31I will personally vouch

01:09:32for their professional integrity.

01:09:33In return,

01:09:34Sea Mist guarantees

01:09:34their salary will double.

01:09:36But if anyone dares

01:09:36to put even one gram

01:09:37of dirty ingredients

01:09:38into their food,

01:09:39I promise you,

01:09:40they will never have the chance

01:09:41to pick up a pair

01:09:42of chopsticks again.

01:09:46Grayson,

01:09:47you're absolutely right.

01:09:48Now that you've laid down

01:09:49the rules,

01:09:49none of us would dare

01:09:50to think otherwise.

01:09:52We'll do everything

01:09:52according to Sea Mist rules.

01:10:03Joss,

01:10:04Grayson asked me

01:10:05to tell you something.

01:10:07Since you loved

01:10:07helping Percy handle

01:10:08all that rotten

01:10:09and dirty meat

01:10:10back in the day,

01:10:12you can take on

01:10:12the dirtiest,

01:10:13most disgusting jobs

01:10:14all by yourself

01:10:15for the rest of your life.

01:10:18Grayson!

01:10:20I really know

01:10:21I was wrong.

01:10:22I was just following orders.

01:10:25Please,

01:10:26let me go back

01:10:27to cutting vegetables.

01:10:29I don't even need money.

01:10:31Just let me back

01:10:31into a kitchen.

01:10:37Go back

01:10:38to cutting vegetables?

01:10:39Joss,

01:10:39you're way too naive.

01:10:41You've been blacklisted

01:10:41by the entire restaurant

01:10:42industry.

01:10:43No!

01:10:44No!

01:10:45No!

01:10:47No!

01:10:48No!

01:10:50No!

01:10:51No!

01:10:55New York is just

01:10:56the beginning.

01:11:02Grayson,

01:11:02look how soundly

01:11:03the baby is sleeping.

01:11:05He's going to inherit

01:11:06everything I've built.

01:11:15Try this.

01:11:21I've given Mia

01:11:22the most precious

01:11:23love in the world

01:11:25because she was there

01:11:26for me when the road

01:11:27was darkest.

01:11:28This single piece

01:11:30of Satimi

01:11:30is worth a fortune,

01:11:32but it still can't

01:11:33compare to the hug

01:11:34she gave me back then.

01:11:35That was mine.

01:11:37That should have

01:11:38been my spot.

01:11:40Leo,

01:11:41the flies outside

01:11:42are too noisy.

01:11:44Clean them up.

01:11:49on opposite sides

01:11:50of a fence

01:11:52worlds apart.

01:12:03Grayson,

01:12:04I knew it.

01:12:05I knew you

01:12:06would come back.

01:12:07Professor,

01:12:08if it weren't for

01:12:09that hard bread

01:12:09you gave me back then,

01:12:10I wouldn't have made it

01:12:11until Sea Mist opened.

01:12:13On behalf of the

01:12:13Sea Mist group,

01:12:14I am donating

01:12:1510 billion dollars.

01:12:16Not just for the school,

01:12:17but to honor

01:12:18Professor Smith's

01:12:19craftsmanship.

01:12:22Grayson,

01:12:22does the Research Institute

01:12:23need any logistics staff?

01:12:25We haven't been doing well

01:12:26these past few years.

01:12:27For old times' sake,

01:12:28I remember you.

01:12:29You said back then

01:12:30that I was only fit

01:12:31to clean your toilets.

01:12:32That was a joke.

01:12:33Grayson,

01:12:34we'd take any job,

01:12:35even a janitor

01:12:36at the Research Institute.

01:12:38Tell HR

01:12:38every single position

01:12:39at the Research Institute

01:12:40from security

01:12:41to cleaning staff

01:12:41to the guys

01:12:42mowing the lawn

01:12:42I have to interview

01:12:43them personally.

01:12:43I watched the fear

01:12:44and greed in their eyes

01:12:45and I felt nothing.

01:12:46Class,

01:12:47it used to be

01:12:48their weapon

01:12:48for bullying me.

01:12:49Now,

01:12:50it's my shackles

01:12:51for judging them.

01:12:57Sir,

01:12:58I used to run a restaurant.

01:12:59I know a lot

01:13:00about trash sorting.

01:13:02Please,

01:13:02just give me a job

01:13:03so I can eat.

01:13:04Alert.

01:13:04Blacklisted individual detected.

01:13:06Percy.

01:13:07Permission level

01:13:07permanently banned.

01:13:12Get lost!

01:13:13Every single

01:13:14business under sea mist,

01:13:16even our trash dump

01:13:17won't take scum

01:13:18like you.

01:13:18Oh!

01:13:20Oh!

01:13:23Grayson!

01:13:24You can't do this to me!

01:13:26I'm your own brother!

01:13:28I bought up

01:13:28all the trash processing

01:13:29rights in Manhattan,

01:13:31not just for the monopoly,

01:13:32but to make sure

01:13:33certain scumbags

01:13:34have nowhere left

01:13:35to hide in this city.

01:13:36He once said

01:13:36I was a line cook

01:13:37who could be replaced

01:13:38by any homeless guy

01:13:39off the street.

01:13:40Now,

01:13:41he doesn't even qualify

01:13:42to be a sorter.

01:13:43The AI recognition

01:13:44system upgrade

01:13:45looks good.

01:13:46Give the tech department

01:13:47a bonus.

01:13:49The struggles

01:13:49of a clown like this

01:13:50aren't even worth

01:13:51a second of my anger

01:13:52anymore.

01:13:52His misery

01:13:53is just background noise

01:13:54on my way to the top.

01:14:08In the old era

01:14:09of the food industry,

01:14:10the exploiters believed

01:14:11that as long as

01:14:11they controlled the capital,

01:14:12they could run over skill

01:14:13and destroy a chef's soul.

01:14:14But the rise of sea mist

01:14:16is here to tell

01:14:16everyone in this room,

01:14:17I am rewriting the rules.

01:14:19The exploiters will

01:14:20eventually be abandoned

01:14:20by the times,

01:14:21but the craftsmen

01:14:21who protect the soul,

01:14:22they will be crowned kings.

01:14:24I wasn't just giving a speech.

01:14:25I was declaring war

01:14:26on this cold-blooded

01:14:27world of capital.

01:14:29A year ago,

01:14:29they were Percy's

01:14:30guests of honor,

01:14:31laughing as I got

01:14:32thrown out on my ass.

01:14:33Today,

01:14:34with sea mist standards,

01:14:35I've put a shackle

01:14:36called conscience

01:14:37around every single

01:14:38one of their necks.

01:14:39Grayson,

01:14:39sea mist group's valuation

01:14:40can no longer be measured

01:14:41by money.

01:14:41What is your next goal?

01:14:42My goal is to make sure

01:14:43there is no more soil

01:14:44in this world

01:14:44for a cancer like Percy

01:14:45to grow.

01:14:46I saw it in the eyes

01:14:47of those tycoons

01:14:48who once seemed untouchable,

01:14:49a fear they've never

01:14:50felt before.

01:14:51The underdog's rise

01:14:53isn't a myth,

01:14:53it's the judgment

01:14:54I wrote with my own hands.

01:14:58Grayson!

01:14:59I'm cooperating,

01:15:00I'll tell you everything.

01:15:01Three months ago,

01:15:02that maniac Percy

01:15:02bribed one of our lab technicians.

01:15:04He took high concentration

01:15:05harmful chemicals.

01:15:06Make it clear.

01:15:08He wants to destroy

01:15:09sea mist's air.

01:15:10He's planning to put

01:15:11harmful substances

01:15:11in that batch

01:15:12of special supply milk powder.

01:15:13I thought stripping him

01:15:14of his name

01:15:15and letting him rot

01:15:15in the gutter

01:15:16like a rat

01:15:16was my final act

01:15:17of mercy.

01:15:18But I underestimated

01:15:19how vicious

01:15:20a mad dog can be.

01:15:21He dared to reach

01:15:22his filthy hands

01:15:23towards my child.

01:15:24Leo,

01:15:25go take care of something.

01:15:27Please give your orders,

01:15:28Mr. Grayson.

01:15:29Mobilize the global

01:15:29legal team.

01:15:30Yes, sir.

01:15:31I want Percy

01:15:31to spend the rest

01:15:32of his life

01:15:32in the coldest,

01:15:33darkest prison cell

01:15:34they can find.

01:15:35Tell the warden,

01:15:36I don't want him dead.

01:15:37I want him to accidentally

01:15:38live to be 100

01:15:38every single day,

01:15:39surrounded by sickness

01:15:40and the torture

01:15:41of those creditors.

01:15:41Watching the glory

01:15:42of my sea mist restaurant

01:15:43shine in the sunlight,

01:15:45blinding him

01:15:45from behind those bars.

01:15:46Since he doesn't

01:15:47want to be human,

01:15:48I'll send him

01:15:48to real hell.

01:15:49I want him to live

01:15:50in endless regret,

01:15:51a dying flame

01:15:51in the depths of hell.

01:15:56Defendant Percy,

01:15:57on multiple counts,

01:15:58including food safety

01:15:59violations,

01:16:00attempted harm,

01:16:01malicious tempering,

01:16:02and massive fraud,

01:16:03you are hereby sentenced

01:16:04to life in prison

01:16:05without parole.

01:16:06No!

01:16:07I won't accept this!

01:16:08Grayson, you devil!

01:16:09You manipulated everything!

01:16:11A year ago,

01:16:12I begged him in the rain

01:16:13to leave mom and dad

01:16:13some money for their

01:16:14medical bees.

01:16:15He tore my dignity

01:16:16to shreds in public,

01:16:17and now he wants

01:16:18to talk about blood?

01:16:19The moment he reached

01:16:20for mom and dad's pension,

01:16:21the moment he reached

01:16:22for my baby's milk powder,

01:16:24he cut that vein

01:16:24with his own hands.

01:16:29Grayson,

01:16:30all that mess in Manhattan,

01:16:32it's finally over.

01:16:35We were blind back then.

01:16:37It was our fault.

01:16:38Mom, it's all in the past.

01:16:40I watched the relieved smiles

01:16:42on my parents' faces.

01:16:44Finally, they were free

01:16:45from that nightmare.

01:16:48Percy is counting lice

01:16:49in a cold prison cell.

01:16:51And my family?

01:16:53We're standing in the sunlight.

01:16:57He rewrote how this industry

01:16:59exploits people.

01:17:00He protected the soul

01:17:01of ingredients.

01:17:02Now let us welcome

01:17:03the world's top culinary leader,

01:17:05Grayson!

01:17:08Today,

01:17:09this trophy doesn't belong

01:17:10to me alone.

01:17:11It belongs to everyone.

01:17:12I'm not standing here

01:17:13to enjoy some empty fame.

01:17:14I'm here to issue

01:17:15the new C-Mist decree.

01:17:16These people,

01:17:17they were once exploited

01:17:18by Percy at Iron Mocker.

01:17:19I announced that C-Mist Group

01:17:20will set up a $1 billion

01:17:21support fund.

01:17:22Every front-line employee

01:17:23who suffered exploitation,

01:17:25as long as you pass

01:17:26the assessment,

01:17:26C-Mist will grant you

01:17:27the right to open

01:17:28a franchise free month.

01:17:29Long live Gracie!

01:17:30This is what a real slap

01:17:31in the face looks like.

01:17:33I'm going to make Percy

01:17:34watch on TV.

01:17:34All those people

01:17:36he called homeless bums

01:17:37are becoming millionaires

01:17:38under my wing.

01:17:39And him?

01:17:40He can't even afford

01:17:41a roll of toilet paper.

01:17:45Grayson,

01:17:45two-thirds of the

01:17:46Michelin restaurants

01:17:46around the world

01:17:47have already applied

01:17:48to join the C-Mist

01:17:49certification standard.

01:17:53Then let them

01:17:54wait in line.

01:17:55We make the rules.

01:17:58One year ago,

01:17:59I was at the other end

01:18:00of this city

01:18:00holding only $10,000

01:18:02the money I'd bled for.

01:18:03Now, this building

01:18:04beneath my feet,

01:18:05plus thousands of branches

01:18:06around the world,

01:18:06my net worth

01:18:07has exceeded $100 billion.

01:18:08And this Manhattan

01:18:09reeking of money,

01:18:10I use the most humble skills

01:18:12to level every injustice.

01:18:14What are you thinking about?

01:18:18I'm thinking,

01:18:19that poor kid

01:18:20who rented that $500 dump

01:18:22had pretty good taste.

01:18:25That was the best investment

01:18:27in the world.

01:18:28The name Percy

01:18:28has been burned to ash

01:18:29from the family tree

01:18:30and erased

01:18:31from this city's history.

01:18:32From now on,

01:18:33no more iron anchor

01:18:33in Manhattan,

01:18:34only C-Mist.

01:18:35Survival of the fittest

01:18:36was the old rule.

01:18:37My rule?

01:18:38Let the ones with soul

01:18:39rise to the top.

01:18:40I'm Gracie.

01:18:41The C-Mist era

01:18:41never ends.
