Now I Set The Table

Transcript

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

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

00:00:07But me? He gave me only a hundred grand.

00:00:09A prep cook barely makes two thousand a month.

00:00:13I gave you a hundred 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.

00:00:45Two thousand dollars a month.

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

00:00:53Here's your share.

00:00:59I took it and counted.

00:01:00Only a hundred thousand.

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

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

00:01:06I 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.

00:01:44Move 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.

00:02:22Your 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.

00:03:28My wife Mia looked at me with concern.

00:03:30Honey, what happened?

00:03:32Why are you so late?

00:03:34Percy asked me to clean the kitchen.

00:03:35I didn't have time to wash up.

00:03:39Mia looked uneasy.

00:03:41She took my hand and pulled me down onto the sofa.

00:03:44I saw the news.

00:03:46The mayor is going to personally review Iron Anchor.

00:03:50The restaurant you and Percy opened is really making money.

00:03:53Big enough to even get the mayor's attention.

00:03:56Did he give you any of it?

00:03:58Sure.

00:03:59He gave me a hundred grand.

00:04:01Only a hundred grand?

00:04:03The news said the place cleared six million.

00:04:06That's not fair.

00:04:07You put your whole heart into this restaurant for an entire year.

00:04:11At least half of the credit is yours.

00:04:13How could he do this to you?

00:04:15Mia, calm down.

00:04:18Percy is an idiot with his head stuck up in the clouds.

00:04:20Why are you still working for him?

00:04:24I'm opening my own restaurant.

00:04:28I support whatever decision you make.

00:04:35Here's 20 grand.

00:04:36Go all in, Grayson.

00:04:38The baby and I will be just fine.

00:04:42I won't let you down.

00:04:44I swear.

00:04:44The industry benchmark restaurant awards were in two days.

00:04:48That night, I couldn't sleep at all.

00:04:51What if I let Mia down?

00:04:52The dirty, pitch black image of Seamist Restaurant kept flashing through my mind.

00:04:57I wasn't sure if the changes I made would be enough to pass the inspection.

00:05:00I started doubting whether going solo was the right move

00:05:03or just a stupid decision made out of anger.

00:05:06I picked up the little notebook I've been keeping for years

00:05:08and sat down at the desk.

00:05:10It is filled with all kinds of customer info and preferences.

00:05:13I've recorded including the mayor's.

00:05:15I once sat in a high-end restaurant

00:05:17and carefully watched how he ate.

00:05:19What he left on his plate.

00:05:21This notebook gives me the confidence

00:05:23that comes from experience.

00:05:25Then suddenly, my phone rang.

00:05:29What did you say?

00:05:30Seamist Restaurant passed the qualification inspection?

00:05:34This is the best Christmas gift I've ever received.

00:05:40With the license in hand, I'm halfway there.

00:05:42I reached out to the supplier I'd worked so hard to win over before.

00:05:44He'd always seen my potential.

00:05:46And the moment he heard I was opening my own place,

00:05:47he cut ties with Percy on the spot and said yes.

00:05:50You should have gone out on your own a long time ago.

00:05:53I can tell you've got way more ability than that brother of yours.

00:05:56All he knows is flashy tricks.

00:05:59I'd just sent the supplier off when Percy came back from a night of drinking.

00:06:03If he'd paid even a little attention to his own purchasing,

00:06:06he would have recognized that the guy leaving was his biggest supplier.

00:06:09Maybe then his restaurant would still stand a chance.

00:06:12Too bad.

00:06:12All he cares about is messing with that ridiculous haircut of his in his livestream

00:06:16that never gets more than five people.

00:06:18He didn't recognize him at all.

00:06:20Don't say I never give you a chance.

00:06:23The mayor's coming to Iron Anchor in person tomorrow.

00:06:26My dear little brother,

00:06:27I'm your only shot at rubbing elbows with big shots like that.

00:06:31And make sure you bring your wife Mia.

00:06:34I swear, she's never seen anything this grand in her life.

00:06:40Percy's laugh was full of contempt.

00:06:42He was sure I couldn't measure up to him in any way.

00:06:45Tomorrow was going to be his day to shine.

00:06:46And at an event like this,

00:06:48his little brother,

00:06:49the one foolish enough to open a restaurant right across from Iron Anchor,

00:06:52would be the perfect person to compare himself to.

00:06:55I'll be there on time.

00:06:58Here's ten bucks.

00:07:01Go park my car for me.

00:07:05Everyone believed Iron Anchor would definitely become the industry benchmark.

00:07:09Percy was so sure of it

00:07:11that he boasted and signed a whole year's worth of orders for the future.

00:07:14But he overlooked me.

00:07:16A brother he'd never once seen as a competitor.

00:07:19Insignificant.

00:07:20Obedient.

00:07:20Beneath notice.

00:07:22When I got home,

00:07:23I told Mia that I was going to Percy's Restaurant for the awards event.

00:07:27I could see the worry in her eyes.

00:07:29No, Grayson,

00:07:30you don't have to go to that awards event tomorrow.

00:07:33Can't you see?

00:07:35He stole the fruits of your hard work,

00:07:37and now he wants to humiliate you in public.

00:07:39Mia, I've already decided to go.

00:07:42If he tries to embarrass me,

00:07:44I'll forget we're brothers,

00:07:45and I'll take his place for good.

00:07:50A place that was always meant to be mine.

00:07:53Fine.

00:07:55I'll go with you.

00:08:00Percy hadn't seated the guests yet.

00:08:02He was waiting by the door for something.

00:08:04The moment he saw Mia and me show up,

00:08:06his eyes locked onto us like a radar.

00:08:08Look, there's my little brother.

00:08:13Let me introduce you all.

00:08:15This is my brother Grayson.

00:08:16He just took over a garbage dump across the street from Iron Anchor

00:08:20and thinks he's going to compete with me.

00:08:22Percy said it like a joke.

00:08:24All the guests looked at me with contempt in their eyes.

00:08:26Even Mia's smile froze on her face.

00:08:31A year ago,

00:08:33I went through hell to land the supplier

00:08:35with the highest food safety rating.

00:08:38Percy never understood how important fresh ingredients are to a restaurant.

00:08:43And now that top-tier supplier belongs to me.

00:08:46The one who took over supplying Iron Anchor?

00:08:49Obviously just some crooked merchant faking it.

00:08:56This tuna smells really weird.

00:08:59I tried to warn them about quality control,

00:09:01but Percy never listened to a word I said.

00:09:07Grayson, step aside.

00:09:10The new guy here can actually handle a knife.

00:09:16Grayson,

00:09:17you just stand aside and watch.

00:09:19Even for a line cook,

00:09:20you've still got a lot to learn.

00:09:22Percy didn't care about my skills.

00:09:25He asked me to come to the kitchen

00:09:27only to humiliate me

00:09:28with the new hire

00:09:29to prove I was good for nothing.

00:09:33But he had no idea

00:09:34how complicated Blue Fit Tuna is.

00:09:37Without real knife skills,

00:09:38you can't handle it properly.

00:09:41Especially a piece of cheap,

00:09:42low-quality tuna like this.

00:09:45Percy,

00:09:47you're going to regret

00:09:47everything you've done today.

00:09:49I swear it.

00:09:50I'm just trying to make

00:09:51my little brother better.

00:09:53Otherwise,

00:09:53how is he going to support you

00:09:54and the baby in your belly?

00:09:56With that failing restaurant

00:09:57across the street?

00:10:02I'll learn from him.

00:10:04After today,

00:10:05one of us will be famous

00:10:06and the other

00:10:07will be a nobody.

00:10:11Grayson,

00:10:12I really feel sorry for you.

00:10:15That is right.

00:10:16After today,

00:10:17one of us

00:10:18is going to take over the world

00:10:20and the other

00:10:21is going to fade

00:10:22into obscurity.

00:10:23I watched very carefully.

00:10:25Joss thought I was actually learning

00:10:26and he even took the time

00:10:27to explain things to me.

00:10:29I smiled.

00:10:30With such lousy technique

00:10:31that Blue Fied Tuna

00:10:32was going to end up

00:10:33as nothing but a pile

00:10:34of ruined meat

00:10:35in his hands.

00:10:36Look at this!

00:10:37And the mayor.

00:10:38He hates nothing more

00:10:39than being handed

00:10:40low-quality

00:10:42butchered tuna

00:10:43like it is no big deal.

00:10:48You know what

00:10:49Percy nets a year?

00:10:50Six million dollars.

00:10:52You won't see

00:10:53that kind of money

00:10:54in ten lifetimes.

00:10:55You really should

00:10:56just stick with your brother.

00:10:57That way you can

00:10:58at least lap up

00:10:59some of the leftovers.

00:11:01Don't mind them, Grayson.

00:11:03What they said was harsh,

00:11:04but it's the truth.

00:11:08That's enough!

00:11:10You're all way out of line.

00:11:12The truth is

00:11:12he's better than

00:11:13every one of you!

00:11:15Grayson,

00:11:16control your wife.

00:11:18This isn't the place

00:11:18for a scene.

00:11:20Easy, Mia.

00:11:21I'm fine.

00:11:30Here's my card.

00:11:31You're all welcome

00:11:32to come check out

00:11:32my new restaurant

00:11:33across the street.

00:11:34Percy looked at me

00:11:35in disbelief.

00:11:36He never expected that

00:11:37after being humiliated

00:11:38like that.

00:11:38I'd still be able

00:11:40to hand out

00:11:40my business card.

00:11:41Everyone looked

00:11:42embarrassed.

00:11:43No one took it.

00:11:46Grayson,

00:11:46are you seriously

00:11:47expecting these suppliers

00:11:48to visit your dump?

00:11:49Don't be ridiculous.

00:11:51I smiled

00:11:52and shook my head.

00:11:53I swear,

00:11:54one day

00:11:55they'll be begging

00:11:56to work with me.

00:12:02These are all

00:12:03Iron Anchor's

00:12:04signature dishes.

00:12:05Everyone,

00:12:06help yourselves.

00:12:09I could see

00:12:10right through it.

00:12:11The dishes looked

00:12:12exactly the same

00:12:12as before,

00:12:13but the ingredients

00:12:14had changed.

00:12:15Percy always cuts

00:12:16corners with cheap

00:12:17ingredients to save money,

00:12:19but he doesn't

00:12:19understand his customers.

00:12:21Every single one

00:12:21of them

00:12:22has a picky palate.

00:12:23Without my notebook

00:12:24that records

00:12:25every customer's preferences,

00:12:27he can never make

00:12:27the perfect dish.

00:12:30At the table,

00:12:31the guests could already

00:12:32tell something was off

00:12:33with the food,

00:12:34but because they were

00:12:34so eager to flatter Percy,

00:12:36they chose to ignore it.

00:12:37The mayor's personal inspection

00:12:39is the highest honor

00:12:40in the industry.

00:12:41Percy kept bragging

00:12:42about how successful

00:12:43his restaurant had become

00:12:44in just one year,

00:12:45how much money he'd made.

00:12:47Mia was so upset,

00:12:48she couldn't even eat.

00:12:49The anger in her eyes

00:12:51could have skinned Percy alive,

00:12:52but that wasn't enough

00:12:53for Percy.

00:12:54He brought me up again.

00:12:56Grayson,

00:12:57once Iron Anchor

00:12:58takes over the world,

00:12:59you can still come back.

00:13:02I mean,

00:13:02you don't have much skill,

00:13:04just good for a few

00:13:05simple little jobs,

00:13:06but you are

00:13:07my little brother

00:13:08after all.

00:13:09Percy,

00:13:10you're such a good man.

00:13:11Your brother has a death wish

00:13:13opening a restaurant

00:13:14right across from you,

00:13:15and you're still

00:13:16looking out for him.

00:13:18Of course.

00:13:19What does a line cook

00:13:20know about running

00:13:21a restaurant?

00:13:22Without Percy,

00:13:24he's nothing.

00:13:27I was furious.

00:13:28All anyone could see

00:13:29was Percy's winning glow.

00:13:31No one saw the one

00:13:32who'd done all the work

00:13:33behind the scenes.

00:13:34Percy was soaking up

00:13:35the praise,

00:13:36laughing and clinking glasses

00:13:37with those guests.

00:13:39And that was the moment

00:13:39he completely cut off

00:13:40the last bit of mercy

00:13:41I had left for him.

00:13:42The industry benchmark

00:13:43awarded by the mayor

00:13:44can only be my

00:13:46sea-mist restaurant.

00:13:47I raised my glass,

00:13:48a calm smile on my face.

00:13:50You're alright.

00:13:51Everything I do

00:13:51I learned from Percy,

00:13:52my respected big brother.

00:13:56The mayor was arriving

00:13:57any minute.

00:13:58Percy told me to go

00:13:59to the kitchen

00:14:00and get ready

00:14:01to cut the bluefin tuna.

00:14:03Grayson,

00:14:03get your ass

00:14:04to the kitchen

00:14:05and help out.

00:14:06Even though you

00:14:07had the nerve

00:14:07to leave me,

00:14:08I still invited you

00:14:09to this important event.

00:14:10And the only reason

00:14:11is because you're

00:14:12my brother.

00:14:14Percy finished talking

00:14:15and went off

00:14:16to greet the mayor.

00:14:21I looked at the mayor.

00:14:23I knew my chance

00:14:24had come.

00:14:28Percy was in the dining room,

00:14:29chatting up the mayor

00:14:30like he was king

00:14:31of the world.

00:14:32He had no idea

00:14:33his restaurant

00:14:34was heading straight

00:14:35to hell.

00:14:36Joss walked up,

00:14:37carrying a covered platter.

00:14:39Meanwhile,

00:14:39the highest quality

00:14:40bluefin tuna

00:14:41was being delivered

00:14:43to Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:14:45where the expensive

00:14:46head chef I hired

00:14:47was handling

00:14:47the premium tuna

00:14:48according to the methods

00:14:49written in my notebook.

00:14:51My dear fans,

00:14:52it's showtime!

00:14:53The mayor is here!

00:14:54Today I'll show the world

00:14:55true top-tier cooking.

00:14:57Some bottom-flealing trash

00:14:58running a cheap diner

00:14:59couldn't even dream

00:15:00of reaching this level.

00:15:05Mr. Mayor,

00:15:07and everyone watching

00:15:08in the live stream,

00:15:09let me introduce you

00:15:10to my good-for-nothing

00:15:11little brother, Grayson.

00:15:12Never been smart.

00:15:13Only good for the dirty

00:15:15work in the back.

00:15:16He recently opened

00:15:17some dump called

00:15:18Sea Mist right over there.

00:15:20If you ever feel like

00:15:21your stomach's too full

00:15:22and you need to throw up,

00:15:24feel free to go try

00:15:25his chemical waste.

00:15:28Percy, you're too soft.

00:15:31Having that guy

00:15:31across the street

00:15:32is polluting

00:15:33our whole neighborhood.

00:15:35Mr. Mayor,

00:15:36here's my card.

00:15:37I'm good at making

00:15:38otoyu sushi.

00:15:39Are you crazy?

00:15:41A little place

00:15:42that can't even fit

00:15:43two people in the bathroom

00:15:44and you think you can

00:15:45hand the mayor

00:15:45your business card?

00:15:46My restaurant is spotless

00:15:48and my ingredients

00:15:49are the best.

00:15:51I don't think

00:15:52square footage

00:15:53determines quality.

00:15:54Grayson,

00:15:55stop embarrassing

00:15:56yourself here.

00:16:00Young man,

00:16:01you have something

00:16:02those greedy

00:16:03businessmen don't.

00:16:04You're calm.

00:16:05I like that.

00:16:07the mayor

00:16:08sure has a sense

00:16:09of humor.

00:16:10He's just teaching

00:16:10the young generation

00:16:11to stay humble.

00:16:14Grayson,

00:16:15the only reason

00:16:15the mayor hasn't

00:16:16kicked you out

00:16:16is out of respect

00:16:17for me.

00:16:19Stop any of your

00:16:20pathetic delusions.

00:16:29Please take a seat.

00:16:41Mr. Mayor,

00:16:42this is our signature dish,

00:16:44otoro sushi.

00:16:45I promise you'll love it.

00:16:48Iron Anchor's otoro sushi

00:16:50is one of a kind,

00:16:51Mr. Mayor.

00:16:52I guarantee you'll

00:16:53fall for it.

00:16:54The knife work,

00:16:54the technique,

00:16:55absolutely flawless.

00:16:58In the past,

00:16:59the otoro sushi

00:17:00really was one of a kind.

00:17:02But this time,

00:17:04without top quality

00:17:05ingredients

00:17:06and skilled knife work,

00:17:07the only thing

00:17:08coming out of that kitchen

00:17:09is a one of a kind

00:17:10piece of garbage.

00:17:37At that same moment,

00:17:39the otoro sushi

00:17:40I prepared

00:17:41was being carefully

00:17:42packed up

00:17:42and was already

00:17:43on its way.

00:17:45We are about to serve

00:17:46the very first dish

00:17:48from Seamist Restaurant.

00:17:50Everyone,

00:17:51stay sharp.

00:17:53Yes!

00:18:07Percy's prized otoro sushi

00:18:09was unveiled

00:18:10before anyone

00:18:10could admire it.

00:18:11A wave of rotten stench

00:18:12hit the room.

00:18:13His smile vanished.

00:18:14Guests gagged.

00:18:15The mayor slammed his fork

00:18:16down on the table

00:18:17in fury.

00:18:17Percy!

00:18:18This is the signature dish

00:18:19you've been bragging about?

00:18:20Open your damn eyes!

00:18:21Is this meant for humans?

00:18:22I held Mia close

00:18:23and watched.

00:18:24Cold.

00:18:25Percy's face went pale.

00:18:26Cold sweat

00:18:27dripped from his temples

00:18:28down into his collar.

00:18:29But he wasn't done.

00:18:30He fell back

00:18:31on his pathetic sales pitch,

00:18:32desperate to cover up the rot.

00:18:34No.

00:18:34Mr. Mayor,

00:18:35let me explain.

00:18:35This is an oxidation reaction,

00:18:37an advanced aging process

00:18:39for premium tuna.

00:18:40Advanced aging.

00:18:41No,

00:18:42he just served the mayor cheap.

00:18:43Old meat to cut costs.

00:18:45The live stream

00:18:46was going wild.

00:18:47The whole city

00:18:48was watching him

00:18:49feed garbage

00:18:49to the mayor.

00:18:50Fine.

00:18:51You're so confident

00:18:52in this process?

00:18:53Then don't waste it.

00:18:54Bring it to him.

00:18:55Eat it, Percy.

00:18:56Every last piece.

00:18:57Right now.

00:18:57No!

00:18:58No!

00:18:59No!

00:18:59You're resisting so hard.

00:19:00Is it because you think

00:19:01it's a piece

00:19:01of rotten meat too?

00:19:03No!

00:19:03Mr. Mayor,

00:19:04I'll prove to you

00:19:04there's nothing wrong with it.

00:19:05The security guard

00:19:06stepped forward.

00:19:07The cold,

00:19:08intimidating pressure

00:19:09left Percy

00:19:10with no way out.

00:19:11Under the gaze

00:19:12of the citywide live stream,

00:19:14he was forced

00:19:14to swallow

00:19:15that rotten meat

00:19:16like a pathetic stray dog.

00:19:18He skimped on ingredient costs

00:19:20and threw the money away.

00:19:21Now he had to chew up

00:19:22the consequences himself.

00:19:24The mayor's fury

00:19:25was just the beginning.

00:19:26The real ruin

00:19:27of the iron anchor

00:19:28was just getting started.

00:19:34This is the pride

00:19:35of Surla Streets?

00:19:36The face of our state's

00:19:37restaurant industry?

00:19:39Percy,

00:19:39you didn't just insult me.

00:19:41You insult the entire

00:19:42food safety laws

00:19:43of this city.

00:19:44Mr. Mayor,

00:19:44I swear on my life,

00:19:45the sushi is fine.

00:19:46I just drank too much

00:19:47last night.

00:19:48It's my stomach.

00:19:49It's upset.

00:19:49Percy's excuse

00:19:50sounded pathetic

00:19:51and hollow in front of the mayor

00:19:52and 500 livestream viewers.

00:19:54No one knew better than me.

00:19:55Eating rotten bluefin tuna

00:19:56would cause mackerel poisoning.

00:19:58Soon,

00:19:58Percy showed

00:19:59all the signs.

00:20:00The client who had

00:20:01signed next year's contract

00:20:02with him

00:20:02actually wanted to go help him.

00:20:05Damn it!

00:20:06You used rotten meat!

00:20:08That's why you're

00:20:08such a mess right now!

00:20:09Percy, you idiot!

00:20:10You just blew the entire war!

00:20:11No, no, no!

00:20:12It's not what you think!

00:20:13And just like that,

00:20:14Percy's noble image

00:20:15was gone,

00:20:16shattered in front of the

00:20:17livestream in the entire city.

00:20:19Enough!

00:20:20I want a full investigation

00:20:21of Iron Anchor

00:20:22right now!

00:20:23Percy wanted to stop it,

00:20:24but he couldn't move.

00:20:25Soon enough,

00:20:26the iron door

00:20:26to Iron Anchor's

00:20:27back storage

00:20:28was violently pushed over.

00:20:29A stench of formaldehyde

00:20:31mixed with rotting blood

00:20:32hit everyone in the face.

00:20:34Cardboard boxes

00:20:35piled up like metals,

00:20:36their outer layers

00:20:37covered in mold.

00:20:38The smell is absolutely disgusting!

00:20:40Just thinking about the food

00:20:41I ate makes me want to

00:20:42strangle Percy with my bare hand!

00:20:55Percy was dragged

00:20:56it was all the supplier's fault

00:20:57that he was a victim, too.

00:20:59Tears streamed down his face

00:21:00as he got all emotional.

00:21:01At first,

00:21:02some people actually believed him.

00:21:03After all,

00:21:04Iron Anchor's reputation

00:21:05had been perfect.

00:21:05That was until a contract

00:21:06signed with the shady supplier

00:21:08was pulled out of a drawer.

00:21:09A hundred dollars a play

00:21:10and you spent three cents

00:21:11on the meat?!

00:21:12Then,

00:21:12that's what it was.

00:21:13The money went to the cars.

00:21:14The fancy front,

00:21:15but the food,

00:21:16itself.

00:21:17He had zero respect for it.

00:21:18Mr. Mayor,

00:21:19let me explain.

00:21:20I was just trying to save money.

00:21:21I didn't know the supplier

00:21:22would give me bad meat.

00:21:23I'd give me bad meat!

00:21:24You didn't know?

00:21:25You're playing games

00:21:27with people's lives!

00:21:29Percy looked around

00:21:30in despair.

00:21:31Nothing but contempt.

00:21:32And the mayor's fury

00:21:33was even more terrifying

00:21:34than he'd imagined.

00:21:35If this is the best

00:21:35Surla Street has to offer,

00:21:36then I will shut down

00:21:37every single restaurant

00:21:38on this entire street!

00:21:39The whole place erupted.

00:21:40Every business owner's face

00:21:41dropped.

00:21:42If the whole street

00:21:43got shut down,

00:21:43they would lose

00:21:44countless future business deals.

00:21:45Percy, you animal!

00:21:46You want to serve trash?

00:21:47Fine!

00:21:48But don't drag

00:21:48the rest of us down with you!

00:21:50You disgusting little roach!

00:21:51Go to hell!

00:21:52That is human nature.

00:21:53When Percy was on top,

00:21:54they were his loyal supporters.

00:21:55The moment he fell,

00:21:56everyone wanted to kick him.

00:21:57While he was down,

00:21:58Mia looked worried.

00:21:59She was afraid my restaurant

00:22:00would get caught up in this too.

00:22:01I patted her hand.

00:22:02I'd just gotten my license.

00:22:03I was fully confident

00:22:04I could turn the tide

00:22:05on Surla Street.

00:22:05And if I timed it right,

00:22:06my chef should be here

00:22:07in a second.

00:22:12Percy panicked.

00:22:14Iron Anchor

00:22:14was facing closure.

00:22:15And me,

00:22:16his worthless little brother,

00:22:17bringing in a chef

00:22:18with the very same cut of fish.

00:22:19Grayson,

00:22:20what the hell

00:22:20do you think you're doing?

00:22:22Mr. Mayor,

00:22:23before you give up

00:22:24on this street,

00:22:25please give real

00:22:26Surla Street Cuisine

00:22:27one chance.

00:22:27Percy pulled himself up

00:22:28off the floor

00:22:29and stormed over to me,

00:22:30furious.

00:22:31That garbage

00:22:31from your $500 dump

00:22:33has no place

00:22:34in front of the mayor!

00:22:35I'm warning you.

00:22:37Throw that trash away!

00:22:38Mia was never one

00:22:39to just take it lying down.

00:22:40The second she heard that,

00:22:41she hauled off

00:22:41and slapped Percy

00:22:42right across the face.

00:22:43Wipe that disgusting

00:22:44superior look off your face,

00:22:46you arrogant jerk!

00:22:47Three minutes ago,

00:22:48you were serving

00:22:49the mayor garbage!

00:22:50Whatever my husband

00:22:51has in that box

00:22:52is worth more than

00:22:52you and your whole

00:22:53restaurant ever were!

00:22:54You dare put your hands

00:22:55on me?!

00:22:56You shameless bitch!

00:22:58The mayor beat me to it.

00:22:59He had his security

00:23:00restrained Percy,

00:23:01then looked at the

00:23:02takeout box in my hand.

00:23:03I think I'd like to try

00:23:04something made by a man

00:23:06with some composure.

00:23:07See,

00:23:08Mr. Restaurant.

00:23:09Please enjoy.

00:23:24I've never seen sashimi

00:23:25with such perfect texture.

00:23:27It's as thin as a leaf.

00:23:28The aroma's so rich.

00:23:30My mouth is watering.

00:23:31The live stream went wild, too.

00:23:33The comments were full

00:23:34of curiosity about my food.

00:23:36Because of this turnaround,

00:23:37the viewer count

00:23:38instantly skyrocketed

00:23:39by 10,000.

00:23:41Tuna of this grade.

00:23:42My supplier swore

00:23:43I was his only client

00:23:43in Manhattan.

00:23:44Your so-called supply chain

00:23:45is just a transaction.

00:23:46What Grayson earned

00:23:47is the supplier's respect.

00:23:48He deserves to have

00:23:49the best ingredients

00:23:50way more than your

00:23:51iron anchor ever did.

00:23:52I watched the mayor's

00:23:53fingertips tremble.

00:23:55That is the instinctive

00:23:56reaction of a true gourmet

00:23:57in the presence of something

00:23:58transcendent.

00:24:00Percy always thought

00:24:01waving his checkbook

00:24:02around on live stream

00:24:03would let him control

00:24:04everything.

00:24:04But he never knew.

00:24:06Some ingredients

00:24:07can't be bought.

00:24:08They choose who

00:24:08deserves them.

00:24:11My God.

00:24:12The sweetness,

00:24:13the way this fat

00:24:13just dissolves,

00:24:15it's melting on your

00:24:16tongue.

00:24:16Grayson,

00:24:17I take back

00:24:17what I said earlier.

00:24:18This isn't just food.

00:24:19This is art.

00:24:21This year's

00:24:22industry benchmark

00:24:23restaurant is not

00:24:24this foul-smelling

00:24:25iron anchor.

00:24:27It goes to...

00:24:33Wait!

00:24:33C-Mist shouldn't even

00:24:35be in the running.

00:24:35Everyone knows

00:24:36that place is a dump

00:24:37full of grease

00:24:38and rats.

00:24:39It doesn't even meet

00:24:39basic health and safety

00:24:40standards.

00:24:41Percy looked at me

00:24:42with that smug expression

00:24:43like he'd finally

00:24:44cornered the clown.

00:24:45Too bad.

00:24:46This time,

00:24:47the joke was on him.

00:24:48Save the pity, Grayson.

00:24:49I know you tried

00:24:50really hard to steal

00:24:51first place from me.

00:24:53Too bad.

00:24:54Trying isn't enough.

00:24:55You'll never surpass me,

00:24:56little brother.

00:24:57Mr. Mayor,

00:24:59it would be my honor

00:25:00to lead the way

00:25:01and show everyone

00:25:02this garbage

00:25:04dim Grayson

00:25:05calls a restaurant.

00:25:06That place has been

00:25:07closed for ages.

00:25:08I heard the last owner

00:25:09was so bitter.

00:25:10He poured cooking oil

00:25:11all over the floors

00:25:12on his way out.

00:25:12You can't even walk in there.

00:25:14That's right.

00:25:14And he left all kinds

00:25:15of expired food

00:25:16in there, too.

00:25:17It's probably a full-blown

00:25:18rat kingdom by now.

00:25:19What right does a dump

00:25:20like that have to

00:25:21call itself a restaurant?

00:25:22What do we do?

00:25:24Mr. Mayor,

00:25:25and everyone here,

00:25:27as the owner

00:25:27of Seamist Restaurant,

00:25:29I invite you all

00:25:29to come see it

00:25:30for yourselves.

00:25:31You idiot.

00:25:33Get ready to watch

00:25:33your precious restaurant

00:25:34get shut down.

00:25:36My dear fans,

00:25:37I'm about to show you

00:25:38the most chaotic,

00:25:40filthiest garbage dump

00:25:42on Surla Street.

00:25:43You cannot imagine

00:25:45how absolutely disgusting

00:25:47that place is.

00:25:50Percy, lying has consequences.

00:25:53It's totally fake.

00:25:54I guarantee you

00:25:54behind this door,

00:25:55it's nothing but

00:25:56trash and stink.

00:25:57Percy.

00:25:58Just wait and see.

00:25:59Percy's smug smile

00:26:00kept growing,

00:26:01but all of that

00:26:01was about to come

00:26:02to a screeching halt

00:26:03the second I opened

00:26:04that door.

00:26:10This is impossible.

00:26:11Oh my God!

00:26:13In just a few days,

00:26:14that dump

00:26:15has completely changed.

00:26:16It's so clean and tidy.

00:26:18Way more pleasant

00:26:19to look at

00:26:20than Iron Anchor's

00:26:21tacky, flashy decorations.

00:26:27Grayson,

00:26:28your taste

00:26:28is just as impressive

00:26:30as your food.

00:26:37Man,

00:26:38this place is cleaner

00:26:39than an operating room.

00:26:40I worked around the clock,

00:26:42kneeling on that filthy floor,

00:26:43scrubbing every single crack

00:26:45with a brush.

00:26:46Percy spent his money

00:26:46on those Gaudi chandeliers

00:26:48that blind you.

00:26:49I spent mine

00:26:49on every little detail

00:26:50you can touch.

00:26:51This is all just for show!

00:26:52You can fake the decor,

00:26:54but you can't fake

00:26:55the ingredients!

00:26:58Grayson,

00:26:58you're broke!

00:26:59Your monthly rent

00:27:00is 500 bucks.

00:27:01How can you afford

00:27:03pop-grade blue-fit tuna?

00:27:04I bet that piece

00:27:05he just fed you

00:27:06was the only decent one

00:27:07he's got!

00:27:07His freezer must be packed

00:27:09with cheap frozen garbage!

00:27:11Trash!

00:27:12Will always be trash!

00:27:14You wanna see?

00:27:16I'll show you.

00:27:22So many.

00:27:23Tuna of this quality,

00:27:24only three restaurants

00:27:25in all of New York

00:27:26can get their hands on these.

00:27:31Percy,

00:27:31take a good look.

00:27:32This is what you call garbage.

00:27:34No!

00:27:35You must have injected poison

00:27:36into these rotten fish,

00:27:37sprayed them with chemicals!

00:27:38Who the hell

00:27:39is insulting my fish?

00:27:44You are...

00:27:45I worked with Iron Anchor

00:27:47for a whole year.

00:27:48Not once did you bother

00:27:49to remember my name.

00:27:50Percy,

00:27:51you're an absolute idiot.

00:27:54You're Iron Anchor's

00:27:55biggest supplier

00:27:56from this past year.

00:27:57You traitor!

00:27:58You're the traitor!

00:27:59And premium ingredients

00:28:01should go to people

00:28:02who actually appreciate them!

00:28:04Mr. Mayor,

00:28:05I'm the largest

00:28:06seafood distributor

00:28:06in California.

00:28:07I hereby certify

00:28:09that all ingredients

00:28:10used by

00:28:10Seamist Restaurant

00:28:11are exclusively supplied

00:28:13through my special channel

00:28:14with the highest

00:28:15A-level safety rating.

00:28:16Mr. Grayson

00:28:17is the most knowledgeable

00:28:18person about ingredients

00:28:20I've ever met.

00:28:21That's why I ended

00:28:22all my contracts

00:28:23with Iron Anchor

00:28:23for him.

00:28:25Are you insane?

00:28:26I give you millions

00:28:27of dollars a year!

00:28:28What about him?

00:28:29All he got

00:28:30was the lousy

00:28:30hundred grand

00:28:31I threw at him!

00:28:32After lashing out

00:28:32at the supplier,

00:28:34Percy turned his rage

00:28:35back on me.

00:28:36Grayson!

00:28:36You ungrateful snake!

00:28:39You took the hundred grand

00:28:40I gave you

00:28:41and used it

00:28:41to steal my supplier

00:28:43and become my enemy?

00:28:44Don't you have

00:28:44any family loyalty

00:28:45at all?

00:28:46Percy.

00:28:49Percy,

00:28:50out of that hundred grand,

00:28:52ninety thousand

00:28:52was purchasing money

00:28:53I fronted for you.

00:28:57The remaining ten thousand

00:28:58was what you paid me

00:29:00for three years

00:29:01of working my ass off

00:29:03day and night.

00:29:04You thought you could

00:29:05buy my dignity.

00:29:06I'm taking it back

00:29:07with my own hands.

00:29:08We're even.

00:29:09And don't forget,

00:29:10this supplier was mine

00:29:11from the very beginning.

00:29:13Percy's eyes

00:29:13went unfocused.

00:29:14It looked like

00:29:15he was finally remembering

00:29:16how hard I worked

00:29:17a year ago,

00:29:18visiting supplier

00:29:19after supplier,

00:29:20screening through

00:29:21thousands of them

00:29:22to find this one.

00:29:22Percy wanted

00:29:23to keep arguing,

00:29:24but fate wasn't going

00:29:26to give him

00:29:26any more chances.

00:29:28Mr. Mayor,

00:29:29it's not just

00:29:29the ingredients.

00:29:30The entire interior

00:29:31of Iron Anchor

00:29:31is built with

00:29:32the cheapest,

00:29:32most flammable

00:29:33formalhyde-laden boards

00:29:34just painted over

00:29:34with a layer of gold.

00:29:35Iron Anchor

00:29:36is basically

00:29:36a poison gas chamber

00:29:37that would explode

00:29:38the second it touches fire.

00:29:42That's disgusting.

00:29:44All for show.

00:29:45Percy,

00:29:46get out of

00:29:46the restaurant industry.

00:29:49Mr. Mayor,

00:29:50I was wrong.

00:29:51I just wanted

00:29:52the restaurant

00:29:52to look better.

00:29:53You risked people's lives

00:29:55just to look good?

00:29:56Percy's tears

00:29:57rolled down

00:29:58his fake,

00:29:59lying face.

00:30:00He used to throw money

00:30:01in front of me

00:30:01and call me

00:30:02a country bumpin'

00:30:03who'd never seen

00:30:04the world.

00:30:04And now,

00:30:05that live-streaming empire

00:30:07he'd so carefully built

00:30:08was collapsing

00:30:09inch by inch

00:30:10in front of a global audience.

00:30:11I hereby declare

00:30:13Sea Mist Restaurant

00:30:14the industry

00:30:16benchmark restaurant

00:30:17for this year.

00:30:18Effective immediately,

00:30:20Iron Anchor's

00:30:21business license

00:30:22is permanently revoked.

00:30:24All assets

00:30:25are to be seized.

00:30:27Percy is under

00:30:27official investigation

00:30:28for food safety crimes

00:30:30and commercial fraud.

00:30:32Now,

00:30:33throw this cock-roat

00:30:35out of here.

00:30:43Grayson!

00:30:44Save me!

00:30:45You're my own

00:30:46little brother.

00:30:46Your restaurant

00:30:47is right across the street.

00:30:48You can fix this.

00:30:49You have to.

00:30:50I gave him a year.

00:30:51A whole year.

00:30:53But all he ever learned

00:30:54was how to put on a show

00:30:55for his live screen.

00:30:56Grayson!

00:30:59Grayson,

00:30:59I'm begging you.

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

00:31:01Please put in a good word for me.

00:31:02You can't let them

00:31:03close my place.

00:31:03That's everything I've got!

00:31:05Everything you've got, Percy?

00:31:07You call rotten meat

00:31:08and fake gold

00:31:09paint everything you've got?

00:31:10Just don't shut me down.

00:31:11I'll do anything you want.

00:31:12I'll give you all the shares.

00:31:14You come back

00:31:14and be the boss.

00:31:15I'll work for you.

00:31:16I'll be your line cook.

00:31:18Percy,

00:31:18do you remember

00:31:18how you humiliated Grayson?

00:31:20You said he was only

00:31:21worth 2,000 bucks.

00:31:22You said a homeless guy

00:31:23off the street

00:31:24could replace him.

00:31:25A year ago,

00:31:26I begged him

00:31:27in the pouring rain

00:31:28just like this

00:31:29to pay the supplier

00:31:30what he owed.

00:31:31He rolled down

00:31:32his car window,

00:31:32blew smoke in my face

00:31:34and told me

00:31:35I didn't understand business.

00:31:37Percy,

00:31:37your biggest mistake

00:31:38wasn't greed.

00:31:39It was that you never

00:31:40learned to respect food.

00:31:42Someone who can make

00:31:43the finest fish

00:31:43smell like death

00:31:44has no place

00:31:45in a kitchen.

00:31:47You're really gonna

00:31:47just let me die?

00:31:48For old time's sake,

00:31:50since you want to be

00:31:50a line cook so bad,

00:31:52C-Miss just happens

00:31:53to be looking for someone

00:31:54to clean the bathrooms.

00:31:552,000 a month.

00:31:56And the only reason

00:31:57I'm even offering it

00:31:58to you

00:31:58is out of respect

00:31:59for you being

00:31:59my big brother.

00:32:04Mr. Grayson,

00:32:05I'm officially

00:32:06transferring my

00:32:06$5 million

00:32:07annual banquet booking

00:32:08to C-Miss Restaurant.

00:32:09Name your price.

00:32:10Just make sure

00:32:10that Oto Sushi

00:32:11shows up at my event.

00:32:12Grayson,

00:32:13this is a long-term

00:32:13letter of intent

00:32:14from the Manhattan

00:32:14Restaurant Association.

00:32:16We're willing

00:32:16to pay a 50% premium

00:32:17as long as C-Miss

00:32:18agrees to be our partner.

00:32:20Three hours ago,

00:32:20these same people

00:32:21watched Percy humiliate me

00:32:22in front of everyone.

00:32:23They laughed at me,

00:32:24a lowly line cook

00:32:24who didn't know his place.

00:32:25Now, they're willing

00:32:26to pay double

00:32:27just to beg me

00:32:27for a partnership.

00:32:28C-Miss will only sign

00:32:29with one partner

00:32:30in the next year.

00:32:31That spot,

00:32:32you'll have to fight

00:32:33for it yourselves.

00:32:34I have the strongest capital.

00:32:36That spot belongs to me.

00:32:38What can you offer

00:32:38besides money?

00:32:39I can provide

00:32:40the biggest advertising

00:32:41and sales channels.

00:32:42Get lost.

00:32:43This opportunity is mine.

00:32:48With the mayor's endorsement

00:32:49and the title

00:32:50of industry benchmark restaurant,

00:32:52C-Miss was plastered

00:32:53all over countless posters.

00:32:56Customers poured

00:32:57into C-Miss non-stop.

00:32:59Mia and I opened

00:33:00three more locations together.

00:33:02I never held back.

00:33:03I shared everything I knew.

00:33:05C-Miss will always stand

00:33:06for healthy, delicious food.

00:33:15All those prepayments

00:33:16that should have gone

00:33:17into Iron Anchor's account,

00:33:19they were now flooding

00:33:19into mine instead.

00:33:21Oh my God,

00:33:22I can't believe my eyes.

00:33:24Grayson,

00:33:25in less than half an hour,

00:33:26the prepayments

00:33:27have already topped

00:33:28three million.

00:33:29We made it!

00:33:30Grayson,

00:33:31you deserve this.

00:33:32The restaurant industry

00:33:33doesn't need some performer

00:33:34who only knows how to lie.

00:33:36It needs craftsmen like you.

00:33:38People with soul

00:33:39when it comes to food.

00:33:41This is the contract

00:33:42for government catering

00:33:44for the next year.

00:33:50Pleasure doing business with you.

00:33:52At that moment,

00:33:53Percy,

00:33:53his face caked with mud,

00:33:56pressed himself

00:33:56against the window

00:33:57like a ghost,

00:33:58watching me sign

00:33:59contract after contract,

00:34:01signing away millions

00:34:02of dollars.

00:34:03Furious,

00:34:03he tried to get in,

00:34:04but the security guard

00:34:06at the door

00:34:06shoved him back,

00:34:07sending him tumbling

00:34:08down the steps.

00:34:09Get out of my way!

00:34:11That bastard Grayson

00:34:12took everything from me!

00:34:13This was supposed

00:34:14to be mine!

00:34:15Move along!

00:34:16This is no place

00:34:17for a homeless guy!

00:34:18He was out there watching.

00:34:20I was in here sitting.

00:34:23That single pane of glass

00:34:24was the line

00:34:25between heaven and hell.

00:34:26He used to say

00:34:27that without him,

00:34:28I'd be begging

00:34:29for food in Chinatown.

00:34:31Now,

00:34:31he can't even get

00:34:32past the door

00:34:33of my restaurant.

00:34:35Grayson!

00:34:36You traitor!

00:34:41Percy was curled up

00:34:43next to a stinking dumpster.

00:34:44His thousand dollar

00:34:46tuxedo was caked

00:34:47with grime.

00:34:48He was too afraid

00:34:49to go home,

00:34:50because all the partners

00:34:51he'd arrogantly signed

00:34:52with before

00:34:53were now turning on him

00:34:54after Iron Anchor

00:34:55got shut down.

00:34:56What awaited him

00:34:57was massive penalty fees

00:34:59and the fury

00:35:00of every single one

00:35:01of those partners.

00:35:07Hello?

00:35:08Boss,

00:35:09just give me

00:35:09a little more time.

00:35:10Time?

00:35:11Percy,

00:35:12your old frozen meat

00:35:13got my license revoked.

00:35:15According to the contract,

00:35:16you owe me triple the penalty.

00:35:17That's two million dollars.

00:35:19If I don't see that money

00:35:20by tomorrow morning,

00:35:21you can go feed the fish

00:35:22in the Hudson River.

00:35:28Percy,

00:35:29this is James

00:35:30from Seafood Logistics.

00:35:31That industry benchmark prize

00:35:32you promised

00:35:33was total bullshit.

00:35:34I want my shipping fees

00:35:35and the 500,000 penalty.

00:35:36Transfer it now.

00:35:37Otherwise,

00:35:38I'm sending your address

00:35:39to every creditor

00:35:40in Manhattan.

00:35:41Percy pinned all his remaining hope

00:35:43on live streaming.

00:35:44He begged his viewers

00:35:45to send him money

00:35:46to save Iron Anchor.

00:35:48He made a complete fool

00:35:49of himself

00:35:49like a stray dog

00:35:50losing every shred

00:35:51of dignity.

00:35:52He did pathetic stunts.

00:35:53He even fought

00:35:54homeless people for food.

00:35:55You felled us garbage

00:35:57for so long.

00:35:57What right does an animal

00:35:58like you have

00:35:59to ask for our forgiveness?

00:36:00Report him.

00:36:01Make him disappear for good.

00:36:03No, no, no.

00:36:04If I hadn't skimped

00:36:05on that 90,000,

00:36:06if I hadn't pushed him away,

00:36:08that six million

00:36:08would have been mine.

00:36:09The mayor's praise

00:36:10would have been mine too.

00:36:11He finally understood.

00:36:13Losing me

00:36:14wasn't just losing a line cook.

00:36:15It was losing his only brain

00:36:17and his last chance

00:36:18to be a decent human being.

00:36:20The live stream ban

00:36:21was the final straw

00:36:22that broke Percy.

00:36:23He looked at Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:36:25glowing with lights

00:36:26and finally broke down

00:36:28sobbing.

00:36:29I was wrong.

00:36:32Grayson,

00:36:32I was really wrong.

00:36:38Time to pay up.

00:36:43Hear my love.

00:36:46No, no.

00:36:48Grayson, help me.

00:36:49Help me.

00:36:53I took Mia out

00:36:54for a nice meal.

00:36:55Because we were so poor

00:36:56last year,

00:36:57I couldn't even feed

00:36:59my pregnant wife

00:36:59decent food

00:37:00more than a few times.

00:37:02Mia, thank you.

00:37:04For everything.

00:37:06These past three years.

00:37:08Grayson,

00:37:08I feel like I'm dreaming.

00:37:10A month ago,

00:37:11we were stressing

00:37:11over $500 in rent.

00:37:14Dreams end.

00:37:15But these numbers don't lie.

00:37:17Three days ago,

00:37:17I sat here watching

00:37:18Percy throw money around

00:37:19like it was nothing.

00:37:20Now,

00:37:21Sea Mist's weekly revenue alone

00:37:23equals his entire net profit

00:37:24from last year.

00:37:25Ones, tens,

00:37:26hundreds, thousands,

00:37:27tens of thousands.

00:37:28Grayson,

00:37:28the prepayments

00:37:29and net profit,

00:37:30it's over $6 million?

00:37:31That's just the first week.

00:37:32With the mayor's endorsement,

00:37:34every big name in New York,

00:37:35politicians,

00:37:36and socialettes alike

00:37:37is lining up.

00:37:38We're already booked

00:37:39through Christmas next year.

00:37:40We're rich.

00:37:41We can give our child

00:37:43the best education.

00:37:44We never have to live

00:37:45under Percy's thumb again.

00:37:46I looked at Mia's excited face.

00:37:48It warmed my heart.

00:37:50To the future.

00:37:52Cheers.

00:37:54And Percy?

00:37:55At that very moment,

00:37:57he was huddled

00:37:57next to a dumpster,

00:37:59gnawling on someone else's

00:38:00disparted bread.

00:38:04I moved Mia

00:38:05out of that tiny

00:38:06rental apartment

00:38:06and bought the best

00:38:07estate in the city.

00:38:08Mr. Grayson,

00:38:09this is the most private

00:38:10estate in the entire city.

00:38:11It comes with its own

00:38:12helipad and a top

00:38:13of the security system.

00:38:14Do you like it?

00:38:15The sunlight here

00:38:16is beautiful.

00:38:17Perfect for our kid

00:38:18to run around

00:38:18on the grass someday.

00:38:19I never imagined

00:38:20I'd live in a place

00:38:21like this someday.

00:38:22Grayson,

00:38:23this is too expensive.

00:38:24Mia, you deserve the best.

00:38:25Just sign it.

00:38:26This will be our

00:38:27family's safe haven.

00:38:28Now, I bought the estate

00:38:30that Percy

00:38:31never even dared

00:38:31to dream of stepping foot in.

00:38:33And him?

00:38:34He's hiding

00:38:35in some dark corner,

00:38:36running from the creditors.

00:38:38The soft opening

00:38:39of Seamist branch

00:38:40was a huge success.

00:38:41We can officially launch

00:38:42the expansion plan now.

00:38:43Yes, Mr. Grayson.

00:38:44The top 10 commercial districts

00:38:46are all fighting

00:38:46for us to set up there.

00:38:47The contracts are ready.

00:38:49Tell them this.

00:38:49Seamist has only one standard.

00:38:51The finest ingredients?

00:38:52Absolute transparency.

00:38:54Percy failed

00:38:55because he looked

00:38:55at his customers

00:38:56and saw cash cows.

00:38:57I succeeded

00:38:58because I treat food

00:38:59like a religion.

00:39:00expanding the business

00:39:01isn't about hoarding money.

00:39:03It's about letting

00:39:04more people around the world

00:39:05enjoy this food.

00:39:06Grayson,

00:39:07we're really starting

00:39:08a new life.

00:39:11The first stop

00:39:12for our expansion?

00:39:14That port

00:39:15Percy always wanted

00:39:15to take over

00:39:16for himself.

00:39:29Goodbye, Grayson.

00:39:30You made it.

00:39:32You goddamn piece of trash.

00:39:34You actually sold

00:39:35banned meat?

00:39:36Are you even human?

00:39:37Dad,

00:39:38I was just trying

00:39:39to make money.

00:39:40Who knew that ungrateful

00:39:41snake, Grayson,

00:39:42would turn on me?

00:39:43Turn on you?

00:39:44If it weren't for him,

00:39:45we'd all be in prison

00:39:46right now

00:39:47because of you.

00:39:48We have no place

00:39:49for a beast like you.

00:39:51I was tasting

00:39:51the finest wine

00:39:52in my estate.

00:39:53Percy was in that old house,

00:39:54taking the beating

00:39:55my parents should have

00:39:56given him long ago.

00:39:57He used to think

00:39:58he was the pride

00:39:58of the family.

00:39:59In truth,

00:40:00he was just a cowardly,

00:40:01rotten parasite.

00:40:02You're a monster!

00:40:03Get out!

00:40:03Stop hitting me!

00:40:05Grayson is loaded.

00:40:06He's got tens of millions now.

00:40:08Make him help me!

00:40:11You still have the nerve

00:40:12to mention him?

00:40:13When you paid him

00:40:142,000 bucks,

00:40:15did you ever stop

00:40:16to think he was

00:40:16your little brother?

00:40:18Get out!

00:40:19Go be a line cook

00:40:20out on the streets!

00:40:28His nightmare

00:40:29had only just begun.

00:40:41What happened

00:40:42at Iron Anchor

00:40:42was a misunderstanding.

00:40:44I already switched suppliers.

00:40:46Just lift the ban, please.

00:40:48Give me one more day.

00:40:50Mr. Percy,

00:40:51your restaurant

00:40:52is on the national blacklist now.

00:40:54Old frozen meat

00:40:55and formalide-laden decor?

00:40:57Those search terms

00:40:58are number one on Google.

00:40:59Stop wasting our time.

00:41:00Get out

00:41:01and don't bring

00:41:01that stench

00:41:02into our office.

00:41:03Reputation takes

00:41:04a year to build

00:41:05and one plate

00:41:06of rotten

00:41:06Otoro sushi

00:41:07to destroy.

00:41:13Lisa!

00:41:15Where are you going?

00:41:17My cards are frozen.

00:41:18You have to help me.

00:41:18Help you?

00:41:19Percy?

00:41:20Right now,

00:41:21you're worse

00:41:21than a homeless guy

00:41:22on the street.

00:41:23These bottles

00:41:24are my appearance fee

00:41:25for putting on that show

00:41:26with you for a year.

00:41:27Don't contact me again.

00:41:29I don't want

00:41:30creditors thinking

00:41:30I'm your partner.

00:41:31The love he was so proud of?

00:41:36It ran faster than anyone

00:41:37the moment Iron Anchor

00:41:38got shut down.

00:41:40That's my car!

00:41:42That's my money!

00:41:49Watching Percy fall apart

00:41:50like this,

00:41:52I couldn't help

00:41:53but feel grateful

00:41:54that the woman

00:41:54by my side

00:41:55is Mia.

00:41:58With nowhere left to go,

00:42:00Percy stole mom

00:42:01and dad's retirement savings

00:42:03and borrowed a huge junk

00:42:04of money from the neighbors.

00:42:05My parents called me

00:42:06to handle it.

00:42:07I bought the most expensive

00:42:09estate in Manhattan,

00:42:10a place with a garden

00:42:11bigger than

00:42:12Percy's entire restaurant.

00:42:14I brought Mia back here

00:42:15to show my parents

00:42:16that their younger son,

00:42:17the one they called

00:42:18just a line cook,

00:42:19was the true pride

00:42:20of the family.

00:42:24Mom,

00:42:25just $20,000.

00:42:27Give it to me

00:42:28and I'll pay you back

00:42:28ten times

00:42:29when I'm back on top.

00:42:30You animal!

00:42:31You stole the money

00:42:32mom needs for her heart surgery

00:42:33and you scamp the neighbors.

00:42:34We can't even show

00:42:35our faces outside anymore.

00:42:36Are you gonna drive us crazy?

00:42:38Grayson,

00:42:38you ungrateful snake.

00:42:40You live in a mansion

00:42:41where suits worth

00:42:41tens of thousands

00:42:42and you just watch

00:42:43your own brother die?

00:42:44Dad, mom,

00:42:45here are the keys

00:42:46to your new house,

00:42:47a villa I bought for you

00:42:48on the Upper East Side.

00:42:49It comes with the best

00:42:50in-home doctors.

00:42:51Percy,

00:42:52don't you dare use

00:42:53the word family

00:42:53to disgust me.

00:42:54The moment you stole

00:42:55their retirement money,

00:42:56you should have realized

00:42:57you're already out

00:42:58of this family.

00:43:02Money!

00:43:02That's mine!

00:43:05You owe me!

00:43:06This money is for the neighbors.

00:43:08As for you, Percy,

00:43:09you don't deserve

00:43:10to touch a single cent.

00:43:11I was wearing clothes

00:43:12he could never afford

00:43:13in his lifetime.

00:43:13I was standing at a height

00:43:15he would never reach.

00:43:16And he was down on the ground

00:43:17like a dog

00:43:18finally realizing

00:43:19he had lost.

00:43:27Good morning, Mr. Grayson.

00:43:29Thank you for the jobs

00:43:30you've provided.

00:43:31Mr. Grayson,

00:43:33Seamist Restaurant

00:43:33is truly the pride

00:43:34of this entire street.

00:43:36A month ago,

00:43:37when I walked down this street,

00:43:39everyone looked at me

00:43:39like I was a joke.

00:43:40Now,

00:43:41I own half the storefronts

00:43:42on this block,

00:43:43and the looks people give me

00:43:44have gone from contempt

00:43:45to respect.

00:43:47Suddenly,

00:43:48from the end of the street,

00:43:48a sharp scream

00:43:49cut through the air,

00:43:50followed by a sickening crunch.

00:43:53Two million in penalties!

00:43:54You promised to pay today!

00:43:56Where's the money?

00:44:01He's got money!

00:44:02That's my own brother!

00:44:03Go ask him!

00:44:04He could sneeze

00:44:04and have enough

00:44:05to pay you all off!

00:44:06A piece of trash like you

00:44:07dares to call him your brother?

00:44:09He just issued

00:44:09a statement in the paper!

00:44:10He's cutting all ties with you!

00:44:11No money, huh?

00:44:12Then we do it the old way.

00:44:14Let's start with two fingers.

00:44:21I took Mia's hand

00:44:22and stepped through

00:44:23the magnificent doors

00:44:24of Seamist Restaurant.

00:44:25Behind me,

00:44:26Percy's screams for help

00:44:27echoed as the debtkeepers

00:44:28dragged him into the shadows.

00:44:29Please!

00:44:31Go tell those guys

00:44:32don't let any blood

00:44:33get spilled

00:44:34in front of my restaurant

00:44:35and make it quick.

00:44:36Yes,

00:44:37Mr. Grayson.

00:44:50From today on,

00:44:51Seamist is no longer

00:44:52just a restaurant.

00:44:53We're going to build

00:44:54the most legitimate

00:44:55food supply chain

00:44:56in this city.

00:44:57And the people on Surlate,

00:44:58if they're clean,

00:44:59no tricks,

00:45:00no dirt,

00:45:01I'll double their pay.

00:45:02Yes, Grayson!

00:45:04Grayson,

00:45:04congratulations on

00:45:05the new company.

00:45:06I left that loser Percy

00:45:07because I could see

00:45:08you were the real deal,

00:45:09the one who actually

00:45:10gets things done.

00:45:11Grayson,

00:45:12does Seamist need

00:45:13a PR director?

00:45:15Or maybe

00:45:15a personal assistant?

00:45:17I know everything you like,

00:45:18just like I knew

00:45:19everything about Percy.

00:45:20Lisa,

00:45:21you sure knew Percy.

00:45:22You knew exactly

00:45:23how to kick him

00:45:23when he was down.

00:45:24And you know exactly

00:45:25how to crawl back

00:45:26like a parasite

00:45:27the second you smell money.

00:45:28Miss Lisa,

00:45:29Seamist doesn't need

00:45:30an assistant,

00:45:30but we are looking

00:45:31for a cleaner

00:45:31to take out the trash.

00:45:33But take a look

00:45:33at your clothes.

00:45:34I doubt you could

00:45:34even hold a rag, Stady.

00:45:36Get this piece of cheap,

00:45:37perfumed garbage

00:45:38out of here.

00:45:39From today on,

00:45:40if she shows up

00:45:40within a kilometer

00:45:41of Seamist,

00:45:42call the cops immediately.

00:45:44Grayson!

00:45:45Don't get cocky!

00:45:46You were just

00:45:47a line cook too!

00:45:50I watched her

00:45:51pathetic retreat.

00:45:53In the eyes of opportunists

00:45:54like her,

00:45:55every spot next to me

00:45:56has a price tag.

00:45:57But they don't know.

00:45:59Mia lived with me

00:46:00in that leaky

00:46:00rental apartment.

00:46:02I know for certain.

00:46:03She is the one

00:46:04and only love my life.

00:46:06Why do you keep

00:46:06staring at me?

00:46:10Mia.

00:46:13I think I owe you

00:46:14a grand wedding.

00:46:28Mr. Grayson,

00:46:29do you take Mia

00:46:30to be your wife?

00:46:31To cherish her

00:46:32in both poverty and wealth?

00:46:34I do.

00:46:37Today,

00:46:38all those wealthy socialettes

00:46:40who used to mock us

00:46:41as the poor couple

00:46:42are sitting right there

00:46:43in the audience,

00:46:44applauding us

00:46:45with the most

00:46:46flattering cheers.

00:46:48This is the coronation

00:46:49I promised my wife.

00:46:56Grayson,

00:46:57save me!

00:46:58The debt collures

00:46:58broke my fingers.

00:46:59I'm in the alley

00:47:00right outside the church.

00:47:01Please,

00:47:01just give me

00:47:02$50,000

00:47:02one last time.

00:47:06Is it him?

00:47:15Someone who doesn't matter.

00:47:17He doesn't get to disturb

00:47:18our wedding.

00:47:19I'm not going to pile on

00:47:20someone already down.

00:47:22Not out of mercy.

00:47:23He's just not worth my time.

00:47:25But I'm not a pushover either.

00:47:27Kindness needs teeth

00:47:28or it means nothing.

00:47:38That was mine.

00:47:40That should have been mine.

00:47:42That $6 million,

00:47:43the fame,

00:47:44the woman,

00:47:45all of it was mine.

00:47:47I bought the most expensive

00:47:48billboard in Times Square

00:47:49and played my wedding video

00:47:51on loop.

00:47:52Percy watched the screen

00:47:53in fury.

00:47:54Percy,

00:47:54your big shot brother

00:47:55already said he's

00:47:56stripping you

00:47:57of his last name.

00:47:57You don't even have

00:47:58a surname anymore now.

00:47:59He's got money.

00:48:00He's got billions.

00:48:01Go kill him.

00:48:02Kill him

00:48:03and all that money

00:48:03becomes mine.

00:48:04Kill him?

00:48:05Grayson is the mayor's

00:48:06right-hand band now.

00:48:08He's got thousands

00:48:09of bodyguards.

00:48:10But you,

00:48:11your eyeballs

00:48:11are worth something.

00:48:12How about we take them

00:48:13as interest first?

00:48:17Grayson,

00:48:18you think you've won?

00:48:19Your woman's about

00:48:20to give birth,

00:48:21right?

00:48:21You're going to regret this.

00:48:23I'm going to destroy

00:48:24your happiness,

00:48:25completely.

00:48:26I thought he would

00:48:27just wither away

00:48:27in his despair.

00:48:29I underestimated

00:48:30how deeply greed

00:48:31and jealousy

00:48:32can twist

00:48:33with a person's soul.

00:48:34A vicious plan

00:48:36was closing in on me.

00:48:45Grayson!

00:48:47You live in a mansion

00:48:48worth thousands

00:48:49of square feet

00:48:50and you're going to

00:48:51let me freeze

00:48:51to death out here?

00:48:53Grayson,

00:48:53you know,

00:48:53he is your own brother.

00:48:55Can't you give him

00:48:56one more chance?

00:48:56A year ago,

00:48:57Percy was throwing money

00:48:58around at Iron Anchor

00:48:59while Mom and Dad

00:49:00lived in that

00:49:01leaky old house.

00:49:02He never once

00:49:03mentioned family.

00:49:04Now that he's drowning,

00:49:05he's using our elderly

00:49:06parents to play

00:49:07the guilt card.

00:49:08That kind of guilt

00:49:09is disgusted to me

00:49:10even more than

00:49:11that plate of

00:49:11rotten otosushi.

00:49:18Brother,

00:49:18save me!

00:49:20Just transfer

00:49:2010%

00:49:21of CMYS shares

00:49:23to me

00:49:23and the creditors

00:49:24will leave me alone.

00:49:25Mom and Dad,

00:49:26please say something

00:49:27for me.

00:49:28Grayson,

00:49:29those deck cleapers

00:49:29are beating Percy

00:49:30half to death.

00:49:31He still has the strength

00:49:32to beg.

00:49:33He still has the strength

00:49:34to come here.

00:49:35He's perfectly capable

00:49:36of pulling himself

00:49:37out of this mess.

00:49:38You cold-blooded freak!

00:49:48You tried to hurt

00:49:49your own little brother?

00:49:52Mom, Dad,

00:49:53this is the son

00:49:54you wanted me to help.

00:49:56He never once

00:49:56thought of us

00:49:57as family.

00:50:00I never kick a man

00:50:02when he's down,

00:50:02but I will not

00:50:03repay evil

00:50:04with kindness.

00:50:06In that moment,

00:50:08his last family card

00:50:10was burned to ash

00:50:11by my own hand.

00:50:13You animal!

00:50:14Now we only have

00:50:15one son,

00:50:16Grayson!

00:50:16Don't you ever show

00:50:17your face in front

00:50:18of us again!

00:50:19No, no, no!

00:50:21Mom, Dad!

00:50:22No, no, Mom!

00:50:24No!

00:50:28That hopeless bastard.

00:50:31Grayson,

00:50:31it was our fault

00:50:32for asking you

00:50:33to help him.

00:50:35Don't worry about it, Mom.

00:50:37Mr. Grayson,

00:50:38it's bad.

00:50:39While your parents

00:50:39were asleep,

00:50:40a man claiming

00:50:41to be their son

00:50:41forced his way in

00:50:42and took their bags.

00:50:44That animal?

00:50:45Those bags had

00:50:46Mom and Dad's

00:50:46life savings.

00:50:47Their only

00:50:48retirement money!

00:50:51I thought Percy

00:50:52would just crawl

00:50:53into some corner

00:50:54and wait to die

00:50:54after being exposed.

00:50:56I underestimated

00:50:57how desperate

00:50:58a gambler

00:50:58with nothing left

00:50:59to loss can become.

00:51:06He didn't steal

00:51:07that money

00:51:07to pay off his debts.

00:51:08He stole it

00:51:09to feed his delusional

00:51:10dream of a comeback.

00:51:14Grayson,

00:51:15he found him.

00:51:16Percy is hooked up

00:51:17with an underground

00:51:17factory in Brooklyn.

00:51:18They produce

00:51:19illegal chemical flavorings

00:51:20that are highly addictive.

00:51:22He's trying to use

00:51:22those poisons

00:51:23to copy sea mist's taste

00:51:24and force his way

00:51:25back into the market.

00:51:26For a little money,

00:51:27he's willing to do

00:51:28something like this.

00:51:41get the best medical team

00:51:42in the country.

00:51:4324-hour care

00:51:44for Mom and Dad.

00:51:45Do whatever it takes

00:51:46to keep them

00:51:46from finding out

00:51:47what that bastard

00:51:48Percy has done.

00:51:49As for Percy,

00:51:50I'm going to make him pay.

00:51:52Before,

00:51:53I just wanted to see him

00:51:54broken on the streets.

00:51:55Now,

00:51:56I'm going to take him

00:51:58out myself.

00:52:04Talk!

00:52:05What did that

00:52:06ungrateful bastard

00:52:07give you?

00:52:08How dare you call him

00:52:09the most conscientious

00:52:10chef in Manhattan

00:52:11on livestream?

00:52:12He was about to pass out

00:52:14from hunger

00:52:15and I gave him a burger.

00:52:16He's a good man.

00:52:18You're the real demon.

00:52:21A good man?

00:52:22I'll break the hand

00:52:24that fed him.

00:52:25You're the real demon.

00:52:30Percy, go ahead.

00:52:31Touch that hand

00:52:32and see what happens.

00:52:34Grayson!

00:52:35You think just because

00:52:36you're some big shot now

00:52:37you're untouchable?

00:52:38This old man insulted me.

00:52:40I'll kill him!

00:52:45My hand!

00:52:46Grayson,

00:52:47you crazy bastard!

00:52:48That one's for the burger.

00:52:51My rule is simple.

00:52:52A kindness,

00:52:54I return it tenfold.

00:52:55A slight,

00:52:56I break the bone

00:52:57and from that

00:52:58delivered it.

00:53:02Sir,

00:53:03an apartment

00:53:04on the Upper East Side

00:53:05and a restaurant

00:53:06on Sorelli Street.

00:53:07They're yours now.

00:53:09Mr. Grayson.

00:53:12This is too much.

00:53:14This is nothing

00:53:15next to that burger

00:53:16you gave me back then.

00:53:18Percy lay there

00:53:18in the filthy water

00:53:19watching the trash

00:53:21he'd just been kicking

00:53:22suddenly become

00:53:22a property home

00:53:23he only ever dreamed of.

00:53:25Jealousy and

00:53:26pain drove me

00:53:26half a second.

00:53:32You just wait!

00:53:36While I sat atop

00:53:37Sea Mist restaurant

00:53:38enjoying the rich aroma

00:53:40of premium Wagyu,

00:53:42Percy was hiding

00:53:43in the stinking alleys

00:53:44of the slums

00:53:45trying to make

00:53:46his last desperate comeback.

00:53:48Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:53:51You seeing this?

00:53:52This is what

00:53:53real charity looks like!

00:53:55Sea Mist charges

00:53:56thousands for one meal!

00:53:58That's robbery!

00:53:59My bliss box

00:54:00is only $9.99!

00:54:02$9.99!

00:54:04Get it while it lasts!

00:54:06You losers!

00:54:08Eat it or don't,

00:54:09I don't care!

00:54:09Once I save up enough

00:54:10to buy out the Sea Mist,

00:54:12you could beg for it

00:54:12on your knees!

00:54:13Get lost!

00:54:14All of you haters,

00:54:16get lost!

00:54:17He had become

00:54:18a complete outcast,

00:54:19despised by the entire internet.

00:54:21He was poisoning

00:54:22those poor people,

00:54:23using that nerve-destroying

00:54:25addictive flavoring

00:54:26to make money,

00:54:27dreaming of making a comeback.

00:54:28He was knight.

00:54:29The foundation of business

00:54:30has never been

00:54:31violent addiction.

00:54:32It's absolute control

00:54:34over the global supply chain.

00:54:39Ah!

00:54:41Grayson,

00:54:41you came to laugh at me?

00:54:43Look!

00:54:44Look at all these people in line!

00:54:46My capital is doubling!

00:54:48Soon I'll be able to buy out

00:54:49your fake little restaurant!

00:54:51What have you got

00:54:52to fight me with?

00:54:54In Sea Mist Group's name,

00:54:55inform the Global Spice Association.

00:54:57From this moment on,

00:54:58whoever sells one gram of spice

00:55:00to any factory

00:55:01connected to Percy

00:55:01will be permanently erased

00:55:03from the global supply chain.

00:55:04Spice?

00:55:04I've got money, you idiot!

00:55:06I'll just buy some

00:55:07from Chinatown!

00:55:07Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:55:12What?

00:55:13Not just the big suppliers?

00:55:14Even the small workshops

00:55:15are canceling?

00:55:16They're demanding

00:55:17triple the refund?

00:55:18Without spice,

00:55:19I can't cover up

00:55:19the bitterness

00:55:20of all that expired

00:55:21rotten meat!

00:55:21Hello?

00:55:22Percy,

00:55:23without fire and salt,

00:55:24you can't even cook

00:55:25a plate of garbage.

00:55:27I cut off

00:55:28his last lifeline.

00:55:37Leo,

00:55:38you're the person

00:55:39Grayson trusts the most.

00:55:40Just put one drop

00:55:41of this vial

00:55:42into his tuna.

00:55:43This five million

00:55:44and shares

00:55:45in the new company.

00:55:46It's all yours.

00:55:48Five million.

00:55:49Gotta admit,

00:55:50that's tempting.

00:55:51Ha ha ha ha ha!

00:55:52Good!

00:55:52That arrogant bastard,

00:55:54Grayson.

00:55:54He never imagined

00:55:55he'd be betrayed

00:55:56by someone he saved.

00:55:58Percy,

00:55:59looks like you forgot.

00:56:00Leo was about

00:56:01to go under

00:56:01and I'm the one

00:56:02who pulled him out.

00:56:03Your filthy money

00:56:04couldn't even buy back

00:56:05the life I saved

00:56:06for him back then.

00:56:07When I save someone,

00:56:09loyalty is in their blood.

00:56:12Percy's blood?

00:56:13It's pure,

00:56:14rotting greed.

00:56:15Trying to buy loyalty

00:56:17with filthy garbage

00:56:18like that is basically

00:56:19him executing

00:56:20whatever intelligence

00:56:20he had left.

00:56:23Tell me,

00:56:24if you drank that stuff

00:56:26you cooked up yourself,

00:56:27what do you think

00:56:27would happen?

00:56:28No.

00:56:30No.

00:56:32Grayson,

00:56:32I'm your own brother.

00:56:34Don't kill me.

00:56:35Kill you?

00:56:37That would dirty

00:56:38my basement.

00:56:41Send him back,

00:56:42crawling in the mud.

00:56:43That's the only thing

00:56:44that suits him.

00:56:45He took a step

00:56:46against me,

00:56:46so I'll make sure

00:56:47he never walks

00:56:48straight again.

00:56:49His dignity?

00:56:50I've stomped it

00:56:51straight into the gutter.

00:56:55Starting today,

00:56:57the Sea Mist Group

00:56:58is acquiring

00:56:58every last shop

00:56:59on Surla Street.

00:57:01All of you

00:57:01who didn't follow Percy

00:57:02when he was doing

00:57:03his dirty work,

00:57:04you each receive

00:57:05a 5%

00:57:06in the original shares.

00:57:10I came back

00:57:11to rebuild,

00:57:12not to take revenge.

00:57:14I wanted these

00:57:15honest people to know,

00:57:16follow Grayson,

00:57:17and even a vegetable

00:57:18seller can stand tall

00:57:20and make money

00:57:20right here in Manhattan.

00:57:26Hurry up.

00:57:27Just give me some bread.

00:57:28I'm starving.

00:57:29Here.

00:57:30Mr. Grayson

00:57:30specifically asked

00:57:31for this,

00:57:32for some special people.

00:57:33three-day-old

00:57:35stale ends.

00:57:38I watched him.

00:57:41He once wanted

00:57:42to starve me.

00:57:44Now,

00:57:45he's only breathing

00:57:46because I choose

00:57:47to throw him scraps.

00:57:50Percy,

00:57:51you're not off

00:57:51the hook yet.

00:57:52That illegal

00:57:53factory's poison?

00:57:55Time for you

00:57:56to take a sip yourself.

00:58:02Everyone!

00:58:03C-Mist restaurants,

00:58:04so-called natural ingredients,

00:58:06are nothing but a lie

00:58:07for the rich!

00:58:08Today,

00:58:09I'm going to expose

00:58:10Grayson's crimes,

00:58:11monopolizing spices,

00:58:12and driving up prices!

00:58:17Our tech-based food

00:58:19costs only 1%

00:58:20of C-Mists,

00:58:21but tastes

00:58:21exactly the same.

00:58:23Grayson's era

00:58:24is over!

00:58:26I saw Percy's

00:58:27little circus act

00:58:28on the screen,

00:58:29and it did nothing to me.

00:58:30He's cozying up

00:58:30to those drug manufacturers

00:58:32who skate just inside

00:58:33the law

00:58:33trying to define

00:58:34great food

00:58:34with cheap-micle garbage.

00:58:35He doesn't understand.

00:58:37Real top-tier ingredients

00:58:38are a gift

00:58:38from the earth

00:58:39and the sun,

00:58:40not some molecular

00:58:40arrangement in a lab.

00:58:46Today,

00:58:47the C-Mist group

00:58:47will roll out

00:58:48the global

00:58:48restaurant platinum standard.

00:58:51Any restaurant

00:58:51that does not meet

00:58:52the natural supply chain audit

00:58:53will be removed

00:58:54from the global

00:58:55procurement

00:58:55wild-pist for good.

00:58:59Mr. Grayson's proposal

00:59:00is a beacon

00:59:01for the restaurant industry,

00:59:02and we support it

00:59:04100%.

00:59:05While Percy was still

00:59:06in that dark little corner

00:59:08trying to smear my name,

00:59:09I was at the top

00:59:10of the food chain,

00:59:12rewriting the rules

00:59:13of the game.

00:59:14He thinks he's

00:59:15competing with me.

00:59:16The truth is,

00:59:18he's just swarming

00:59:19between my fingers.

00:59:20Ah!

00:59:21This is impossible!

00:59:23Why would the WTO

00:59:24stand up for a guy

00:59:25who used to be

00:59:25a line cook?

00:59:28Leo,

00:59:29tell the people

00:59:29next door

00:59:30that my press conference

00:59:31is over.

00:59:32Now,

00:59:33it's time

00:59:34to take out the trash.

00:59:42Grayson!

00:59:43This is illegal entry!

00:59:45My tech food

00:59:46is the future

00:59:47of the industry!

00:59:48The future

00:59:48of the industry?

00:59:50This chemical waste

00:59:51that makes people

00:59:51hallucinate?

00:59:53This bowl of plain

00:59:54kanji,

00:59:55made simply with rice

00:59:56from the 40th parallel north

00:59:57and spring water

00:59:58from Crimea.

00:59:59Judges,

00:59:59please.

01:00:02This is

01:00:03the taste

01:00:04of a mother's cooking.

01:00:05This is the pure

01:00:06warmth of the earth.

01:00:07Today,

01:00:07I destroyed all his

01:00:08hypocrisy and arrogance

01:00:09with a single bowl

01:00:10of plain kanji.

01:00:11A true master chef

01:00:12doesn't need

01:00:12complex recipes.

01:00:14All he needs

01:00:14is a heart

01:00:15that respects nature.

01:00:16Percy's Lab

01:00:16Made Perfect Flavor

01:00:17compared to the real deal.

01:00:19It's just a toxic fraud.

01:00:21This

01:00:21is the molecular formula

01:00:22for your synthetic meat.

01:00:25There's a high dose

01:00:26of neuroblockers in this.

01:00:27Keep eating it

01:00:28and you'll go crazy.

01:00:30Percy,

01:00:31this isn't cooking.

01:00:32It's straight up murder!

01:00:35Murderer!

01:00:36Get out of Manhattan!

01:00:37Go to hell,

01:00:38you piece of trash!

01:00:40No,

01:00:40this isn't true!

01:00:41Grayson,

01:00:42you're setting me up!

01:00:43Percy,

01:00:43the moment you decided

01:00:44to poison the world

01:00:45with your drugs,

01:00:45the gates of hell

01:00:46were already open for you.

01:00:52Percy knelt on the ground

01:00:53covered in filth,

01:00:54clinging to his father's legs

01:00:56and wailing.

01:00:56His illegal lab

01:00:57had just been raided

01:00:58by the police.

01:00:59He was now a wanted criminal

01:01:00across the country.

01:01:01Dad, Mom,

01:01:02save me!

01:01:03Grayson is gonna kill me!

01:01:05He's gonna throw me

01:01:06into the meat grinder

01:01:07with all those creditors!

01:01:11Percy,

01:01:12you are still

01:01:13my eldest son

01:01:14after all.

01:01:20Grayson,

01:01:21could you maybe...

01:01:27Mom,

01:01:27even now,

01:01:28you still think

01:01:28he just made a mistake?

01:01:30The first one,

01:01:31this is the pension

01:01:31transfer authorization

01:01:32he personally signed

01:01:33while you were both

01:01:34in the hospital.

01:01:35The second one,

01:01:36this is the contract

01:01:37where he mortgaged

01:01:37this family home

01:01:38to underground loan sharks

01:01:39behind your backs.

01:01:44You animal!

01:01:45You even stole

01:01:46our funeral fund!

01:01:47Do you want the two of us

01:01:47to die on the street?

01:01:49Dad,

01:01:49I was trying to make

01:01:49a comeback!

01:01:50Once my chemical sauce sells,

01:01:51I could buy you

01:01:51a hundred penthouses!

01:01:52Go.

01:01:53Just go, Percy.

01:01:55I don't have a son

01:01:56like you anymore.

01:01:58Percy,

01:01:58the biggest mistake

01:01:59you ever made

01:02:00was treating everyone

01:02:02around you

01:02:02as sacrificial lambs

01:02:04for your own success.

01:02:06Starting today,

01:02:07you are out

01:02:07of this family.

01:02:10Percy,

01:02:10do you remember

01:02:10what you said?

01:02:11That one of us

01:02:12would take over the world

01:02:13and the other

01:02:13would fade into obscurity?

01:02:15I'm going to make sure

01:02:15you watch me

01:02:16take over the world.

01:02:17Grayson,

01:02:18you goddamn bastard!

01:02:23Grayson,

01:02:24you said you wanted

01:02:25to settle family out.

01:02:26Counts on this day,

01:02:27if you don't have

01:02:28solid evidence,

01:02:29you know the consequences.

01:02:31The Thorn family rule

01:02:32is pragmatism,

01:02:34but in dismantations,

01:02:36rules are just

01:02:36a cover-up

01:02:37for his greed.

01:02:38A year ago,

01:02:39Percy stood at

01:02:39a family gathering

01:02:40and mocked

01:02:41these hands of mine,

01:02:42saying they were

01:02:42only good for

01:02:43holding a kitchen knife.

01:02:44Today,

01:02:44I'm not just

01:02:45taking back my dignity.

01:02:46I'm tearing apart

01:02:47his lies with my own hands.

01:02:49He thought being family

01:02:50would save him,

01:02:51like a free pass.

01:02:52What he didn't know

01:02:53is that before

01:02:53absolute rules,

01:02:54every single betrayal

01:02:55comes with a price.

01:02:57First crime,

01:02:58exploitation.

01:02:59In the three years

01:02:59at Iron Anchor,

01:03:00he withheld $90,000

01:03:01of my front

01:03:02propyrkin payment

01:03:03and treated me

01:03:03like cheap liber.

01:03:04Second crime,

01:03:05poisoning.

01:03:06He colluded with

01:03:07chemical companies

01:03:07and added nerve-blocking

01:03:08agents to the ingredients.

01:03:09This is a direct assault

01:03:10on the hundred-year reputation.

01:03:12Third crime,

01:03:13attempted murder.

01:03:14He tried to attack

01:03:15and harm me.

01:03:17You animal!

01:03:19You dared to harm

01:03:20your own brother?

01:03:21Fourth crime,

01:03:22and the most unforgivable one,

01:03:24embezzlement.

01:03:25While our parents

01:03:25were in the hospital,

01:03:26he stole their pension

01:03:27and mortgaged

01:03:28the family home.

01:03:29He tried to push

01:03:30the very people

01:03:31who raised him

01:03:31into the Hudson River.

01:03:32No, that was all

01:03:33for business.

01:03:34Grayson, you're insane!

01:03:36Evidence is cold,

01:03:37but people's hearts are hot.

01:03:38The moment those

01:03:39four crimes came together

01:03:40to these elders,

01:03:41he was no longer

01:03:42the hope of the family.

01:03:43He was a rotting sword

01:03:43that had to be cut out.

01:03:44You worthless bastard!

01:03:46What do you have

01:03:46to say for yourself?

01:03:53Elder, even if I was wrong,

01:03:55I'm the only business genius

01:03:56in this family.

01:03:57Grayson is just a cook.

01:03:58He can't protect

01:03:59the family's legacy.

01:04:00A business genius?

01:04:03Parsi, all your

01:04:04so-called management

01:04:05is just chasing

01:04:05internet fame

01:04:06while clinging

01:04:06to the dying

01:04:07Iron Anchor restaurant.

01:04:12This is CMIST Group's

01:04:13valuation.

01:04:15$100 billion.

01:04:17I don't just control

01:04:17one-third of the

01:04:18top-tier supply gen.

01:04:19I also have the

01:04:20industry medal personally

01:04:21awarded by the

01:04:22World Trade Organization.

01:04:23I wasn't showing them

01:04:24money, but absolute

01:04:25dominance.

01:04:26In this world,

01:04:27capital speaks,

01:04:27and the highest level

01:04:28of capital.

01:04:29It makes people kneel.

01:04:30Percy thought he was

01:04:31running a business.

01:04:32Me?

01:04:32I'm running an era.

01:04:33When I spread out

01:04:34these reports enough

01:04:35to buy half of New York,

01:04:36his pathetic little assets

01:04:37wouldn't even be enough

01:04:38to pay my taxes.

01:04:39One-

01:04:40$100 billion?

01:04:42Grayson, you did this

01:04:43in just one year?

01:04:44Please, Mr. Grayson,

01:04:45take your place

01:04:46as the head of the family.

01:04:48That's mine!

01:04:49That was supposed

01:04:49to be mine!

01:04:50Grayson, what right

01:04:51do you have,

01:04:52you lowly line cook?

01:04:54Percy, take a good look.

01:04:56In this world,

01:04:56the strong make the rules.

01:04:58The weak just wait to die.

01:05:01I stand at the summit,

01:05:03looking down at him.

01:05:04He once wanted me to kneel.

01:05:05Now, he wasn't even worthy

01:05:07to lift his head

01:05:08and look at me.

01:05:16Thorn Percy,

01:05:17from this moment on,

01:05:18you no longer carry

01:05:19the Thorn name.

01:05:20You are out of this family.

01:05:22No, you can't carry it!

01:05:24I am a Thorn!

01:05:25I have Thorn blood

01:05:26running through my veins!

01:05:27Without the family,

01:05:28the creditors would tear

01:05:29Percy to pieces.

01:05:30I knew that,

01:05:30and I didn't help him.

01:05:32Percy,

01:05:32the moment you stole

01:05:33mum and dad's pension,

01:05:34you had no blood relation left.

01:05:36I watched that page

01:05:36get consumed by the flames,

01:05:38turning to ash.

01:05:38In Thorn family tradition,

01:05:40being expelled means

01:05:40social death.

01:05:41From now on,

01:05:42he is no one's son,

01:05:42no one's brother.

01:05:43As a nameless nobody

01:05:44in the filthiest sewers,

01:05:45he will pay back

01:05:46every blood bet he owed.

01:05:47I want you to live

01:05:49as a man with no name.

01:05:51Grayson!

01:05:53You bastard!

01:05:54Without my $100,000,

01:05:57you'd still be

01:05:57a cockroach in the gutter!

01:05:59A pathetic,

01:06:00lowly line cook!

01:06:09From this day forward,

01:06:11the Thorn family

01:06:12has no Percy.

01:06:13I looked up

01:06:14at the skyscrapers

01:06:15in the distance.

01:06:22No money.

01:06:24Then pay with your life.

01:06:26The Thorn family

01:06:27has already thrown you

01:06:28away like garbage.

01:06:29Right now,

01:06:30you're worse than

01:06:31the rats this alley.

01:06:35Please,

01:06:36just give me

01:06:37one more day.

01:06:38Just one day.

01:06:39Grayson has money.

01:06:41He has hundreds

01:06:42of billions.

01:06:43He could pluck

01:06:44a hair off his body

01:06:45and it would be

01:06:46enough to pay

01:06:46you all back.

01:06:51In Manhattan,

01:06:52the highest form

01:06:52of rejection

01:06:53isn't insults.

01:06:54It's silence.

01:06:56Right now,

01:06:56I'm sitting within

01:06:57arm rage of him,

01:06:57but I can't even

01:06:59be bothered

01:06:59to lift a finger.

01:07:00The moment he stole

01:07:01our parents'

01:07:02last bit of survival money,

01:07:03he lost even the right

01:07:04to die inside my thoughts.

01:07:05Grayson!

01:07:07My good little brother!

01:07:08Save me!

01:07:09They want my organs!

01:07:10They're gonna chop me up

01:07:11and feed me to the fish!

01:07:12Give me a million!

01:07:13No,

01:07:14500,000!

01:07:14Just that much!

01:07:32Percy used to say

01:07:33that money was the only

01:07:34true faith in this world.

01:07:36Since he loves money

01:07:37so much,

01:07:38I'll let him feel

01:07:38what it's like

01:07:39when that money

01:07:39becomes a pile of stones

01:07:41crushing his spine.

01:07:50Percy!

01:07:51This is the money

01:07:51you owe us!

01:07:52The price of our sweat!

01:07:53Our blood!

01:07:54Take these bills

01:07:55and crawl back

01:07:56to your hell!

01:08:04money!

01:08:05My money!

01:08:06My money!

01:08:07Grayson,

01:08:08you finally

01:08:08gave me money!

01:08:10I win!

01:08:11Percy,

01:08:12take a good look.

01:08:13The thing you treat

01:08:14as your religion,

01:08:15to me,

01:08:16is just spare change

01:08:17for trash.

01:08:20I used to be a line cook

01:08:22worth only $2,000.

01:08:24Now I've made him understand

01:08:25in front of absolute skill

01:08:27and absolute rules,

01:08:28all a greedy man

01:08:29will ever get

01:08:30is a pile of worthless paper.

01:08:43Listen up, everyone.

01:08:45From today on,

01:08:46there's only one standard

01:08:48on Manhattan's dining tables.

01:08:50The Sea Mist

01:08:51Ethical Chef Stand.

01:08:54Any chef who makes it

01:08:55onto Sea Mist's whitelist,

01:08:56I will personally vouch

01:08:57for their professional integrity.

01:08:59In return,

01:08:59Sea Mist guarantees

01:09:00their salary will double.

01:09:01But if anyone dares

01:09:02to put even one gram

01:09:03of dirty ingredients

01:09:04into their food,

01:09:05I promise you,

01:09:06they will never have the chance

01:09:07to pick up a pair

01:09:07of chopsticks again.

01:09:12Grayson,

01:09:12you're absolutely right.

01:09:14Now that you've laid down

01:09:15the rules,

01:09:15none of us would dare

01:09:16to think otherwise.

01:09:17We'll do everything

01:09:18according to Sea Mist rules.

01:09:29Joss,

01:09:30Grayson asked me

01:09:30to tell you something.

01:09:32Since you loved

01:09:33helping Percy handle

01:09:34all that rotten

01:09:35and dirty meat

01:09:35back in the day,

01:09:37you can take on

01:09:38the dirtiest,

01:09:39most disgusting jobs

01:09:40all by yourself

01:09:41for the rest of your life.

01:09:44Grayson!

01:09:45I really know

01:09:47I was wrong.

01:09:48I was just following orders.

01:09:51Please,

01:09:52let me go back

01:09:53to cutting vegetables.

01:09:54I don't even need money.

01:09:56Just let me back

01:09:57into a kitchen.

01:10:03Go back

01:10:03to cutting vegetables?

01:10:05Joss,

01:10:05you're way too naive.

01:10:06You've been blacklisted

01:10:07by the entire restaurant

01:10:08industry.

01:10:09No!

01:10:21New York is just

01:10:22the beginning.

01:10:27Grayson,

01:10:28look how soundly

01:10:29the baby is sleeping.

01:10:31He's going to inherit

01:10:32everything I've built.

01:10:41Try this.

01:10:47I've given Mia

01:10:48the most precious love

01:10:49in the world

01:10:51because she was there

01:10:52for me when the road

01:10:52was darkest.

01:10:54This single piece

01:10:55of satimi

01:10:56is worth a fortune,

01:10:58but it still can't compare

01:10:59to the hug

01:11:00she gave me back then.

01:11:01That was mine.

01:11:02That should have been

01:11:04my spot.

01:11:05Leo,

01:11:07the flies outside

01:11:08are too noisy.

01:11:09Clean them up.

01:11:14On opposite sides

01:11:16of a fence,

01:11:17worlds apart.

01:11:29Grayson,

01:11:30I knew it.

01:11:31I knew you would

01:11:32come back.

01:11:33Professor,

01:11:34if it weren't

01:11:34for that hard bread

01:11:35you gave me back then,

01:11:36I wouldn't have made it

01:11:37until C-Mist opened.

01:11:38On behalf of the C-Mist group,

01:11:40I am donating

01:11:41ten billion dollars,

01:11:42not just for the school,

01:11:43but to honor

01:11:44Professor Smith's

01:11:45craftsmanship.

01:11:47Grayson,

01:11:48does the Research Institute

01:11:49need any logistics staff?

01:11:51We haven't been doing well

01:11:52these past few years.

01:11:53For old times' sake,

01:11:54I remember you.

01:11:55You said back then

01:11:56that I was only fit

01:11:56to clean your toilets.

01:11:58That was a joke.

01:11:59Grayson,

01:12:00we'd take any job,

01:12:01even a janitor

01:12:01at the Research Institute.

01:12:03Tell HR

01:12:04every single position

01:12:05at the Research Institute

01:12:06from security

01:12:06to cleaning staff

01:12:07to the guys

01:12:07mowing the lawn

01:12:08I have to interview

01:12:09them personally.

01:12:09I watched the fear

01:12:10and greed in their eyes

01:12:11and I felt nothing.

01:12:12Class,

01:12:13it used to be their weapon

01:12:14for bullying me.

01:12:15Now,

01:12:16it's my shackles

01:12:17for judging them.

01:12:23Sir,

01:12:24I used to run a restaurant.

01:12:25I know a lot

01:12:26about trash sorting.

01:12:27Please,

01:12:28just give me a job

01:12:29so I can eat.

01:12:30Alert.

01:12:30Blacklisted individual detected.

01:12:32Percy.

01:12:32Permission level

01:12:33permanently banned.

01:12:38Get lost!

01:12:39Every single business

01:12:40under sea mist,

01:12:42even our trash dump,

01:12:43won't take scum like you.

01:12:49Grayson!

01:12:50You can't do this to me!

01:12:52I'm your own brother!

01:12:54I bought up

01:12:54all the trash processing rights

01:12:56in Manhattan,

01:12:56not just for the monopoly,

01:12:58but to make sure

01:12:59certain scumbags

01:13:00have nowhere left

01:13:01to hide in this city.

01:13:02He once said

01:13:02I was a line cook

01:13:03who could be replaced

01:13:04by any homeless guy

01:13:05off the street.

01:13:06Now,

01:13:06he doesn't even qualify

01:13:08to be a sorter.

01:13:09The AI recognition system

01:13:10upgrade looks good.

01:13:12Give the tech department

01:13:13a bonus.

01:13:15The struggles of a clown

01:13:16like this

01:13:16aren't even worth

01:13:17a second of my anger anymore.

01:13:18His misery is just

01:13:19background noise

01:13:20on my way to the top.

01:13:34In the old era

01:13:35of the food industry,

01:13:36the exploiters believed

01:13:37that as long as

01:13:37they controlled the capital,

01:13:38they could run over skill

01:13:39and destroy a chef's soul.

01:13:40But the rise of sea mist

01:13:41is here to tell everyone

01:13:42in this room.

01:13:43I am rewriting the rules.

01:13:45The exploiters will eventually

01:13:46be abandoned by the times,

01:13:47but the craftsmen

01:13:47who protect the soul,

01:13:48they will be crowned kings.

01:13:50I wasn't just giving a speech.

01:13:51I was declaring war

01:13:52on this cold-blooded

01:13:53world of capital.

01:13:54A year ago,

01:13:55they were Percy's guests

01:13:56of honor,

01:13:57laughing as I got

01:13:57thrown out on my ass.

01:13:59Today,

01:14:00with sea mist standards,

01:14:01I've put a shackle

01:14:02called conscience

01:14:03around every single

01:14:04one of their necks.

01:14:05Grayson,

01:14:05sea mist group's valuation

01:14:06can no longer be measured

01:14:07by money.

01:14:07What is your next goal?

01:14:08My goal is to make sure

01:14:09there is no more soil

01:14:10in this world

01:14:10for a cancer like Percy to grow.

01:14:12I saw it

01:14:12in the eyes of those tycoons

01:14:14who once seemed untouchable,

01:14:15a fear they've never felt before.

01:14:17The underdog's rise

01:14:18isn't a myth.

01:14:19It's the judgment

01:14:20I wrote with my own hands.

01:14:24Grayson!

01:14:25I'm cooperating.

01:14:26I'll tell you everything.

01:14:27Three months ago,

01:14:28that maniac Percy

01:14:28bribed one of our lab technicians.

01:14:30He took high concentration

01:14:31harmful chemicals.

01:14:32Make it clear.

01:14:34He wants to destroy

01:14:35sea mist's air.

01:14:36He's planning to put

01:14:37harmful substances

01:14:37in that batch of

01:14:38special supply milk powder.

01:14:39I thought stripping him

01:14:40of his name

01:14:41and letting him rot

01:14:41in the gutter like a rat

01:14:42was my final act of mercy.

01:14:44But I underestimated

01:14:45how vicious a mad dog can be.

01:14:47He dared to reach

01:14:48his filthy hands

01:14:49towards my child.

01:14:50Leo,

01:14:51go take care of something.

01:14:53Please give your orders,

01:14:54Mr. Grayson.

01:14:55Mobilize the global legal team.

01:14:56Yes, sir.

01:14:57I want Percy to spend

01:14:58the rest of his life

01:14:58in the coldest,

01:14:59darkest prison cell

01:15:00they can find.

01:15:01Tell the warden

01:15:01I don't want him dead.

01:15:02I want him to accidentally

01:15:04live to be 100

01:15:04every single day

01:15:05surrounded by sickness

01:15:06and the torture

01:15:07of those creditors.

01:15:07Watching the glory

01:15:08of my sea mist restaurant

01:15:09shine in the sunlight.

01:15:11Blinding him

01:15:11from behind those bars.

01:15:12Since he doesn't

01:15:13want to be human,

01:15:14I'll send him to real hell.

01:15:15I want him to live

01:15:16in endless regret

01:15:16of dying flame

01:15:17in the depths of hell.

01:15:22Defendant Percy,

01:15:23on multiple counts

01:15:24including food safety violations,

01:15:26attempted harm,

01:15:27malicious tempering,

01:15:28and massive fraud,

01:15:29you are hereby sentenced

01:15:30to life in prison

01:15:31without parole.

01:15:32No!

01:15:32I won't accept this!

01:15:34Grayson, you devil!

01:15:35You manipulated everything!

01:15:37A year ago,

01:15:38I begged him in the rain

01:15:39to leave mom and dad

01:15:39some money for their medical bees.

01:15:41He tore my dignity

01:15:42to shreds in public,

01:15:43and now he wants

01:15:44to talk about blood?

01:15:45The moment he reached

01:15:46for mom and dad's pension,

01:15:47the moment he reached

01:15:48for my baby's milk powder,

01:15:50he cut that vein

01:15:50with his own hands.

01:15:55Grayson,

01:15:56all that mess in Manhattan,

01:15:58it's finally over.

01:16:00We were blind back then.

01:16:03It was our fault.

01:16:05Mom,

01:16:05it's all in the past.

01:16:06I watched the relieved smiles

01:16:08on my parents' faces.

01:16:10Finally,

01:16:11they were free

01:16:11from that nightmare.

01:16:14Percy is counting lice

01:16:15in a cold prison cell.

01:16:17And my family?

01:16:19We're standing in the sunlight.

01:16:23He rewrote

01:16:24how this industry

01:16:25exploits people.

01:16:26He protected

01:16:27the soul of ingredients.

01:16:28Now let us welcome

01:16:29the world's top

01:16:30culinary leader,

01:16:31Grayson!

01:16:34Today,

01:16:35this trophy

01:16:35doesn't belong to me alone.

01:16:37It belongs to everyone.

01:16:38I'm not standing here

01:16:39to enjoy some empty fame.

01:16:40I'm here to issue

01:16:41the new C-Mist decree.

01:16:42These people,

01:16:43they were once exploited

01:16:44by Percy at Iron Locker.

01:16:45I announced that

01:16:46C-Mist Group will set up

01:16:47a $1 billion support fund.

01:16:48Every front-line employee

01:16:50who suffered exploitation,

01:16:51as long as you pass

01:16:52the assessment,

01:16:53C-Mist will grant you

01:16:53the right to open

01:16:54a franchise free milk.

01:16:55Long live, Grayson!

01:16:56This is what a real

01:16:57slap in the face looks like.

01:16:59I'm going to make

01:16:59Percy watch on TV.

01:17:01All those people

01:17:02who called homeless bums

01:17:03are becoming millionaires

01:17:04under my wing.

01:17:05And him?

01:17:06He can't even afford

01:17:07a roll of toilet paper.

01:17:11Grayson,

01:17:11two-thirds of the

01:17:12Michelin restaurants

01:17:12around the world

01:17:13have already applied

01:17:14to join the C-Mist

01:17:15certification standard.

01:17:19Then let them

01:17:20wait in line.

01:17:21We make the rules.

01:17:24One year ago,

01:17:25I was at the other end

01:17:26of this city

01:17:26holding only $10,000

01:17:28the money I'd bled for.

01:17:29Now,

01:17:29this building beneath my feet,

01:17:31plus thousands of branches

01:17:32around the world,

01:17:33my net worth

01:17:33has exceeded $100 billion.

01:17:35And this Manhattan

01:17:35reeking of money,

01:17:36I use the most humble skills

01:17:38to level every injustice.

01:17:40What are you thinking about?

01:17:44I'm thinking,

01:17:45that poor kid

01:17:47who rented that $500 dump

01:17:48had pretty good taste.

01:17:52That was the best investment

01:17:53in the world.

01:17:54The name Percy

01:17:54has been burned to ash

01:17:55from the family tree

01:17:56and erased

01:17:57from this city's history.

01:17:58From now on,

01:17:59no more iron anchor

01:18:00in Manhattan,

01:18:00only C-Mist.

01:18:01Survival of the fittest

01:18:02was the old rule.

01:18:03My rule?

01:18:04Let the ones with soul

01:18:05rise to the top.

01:18:06I'm Gracie.

01:18:07The C-Mist era

01:18:08never ends.

01:18:12This rundown shop

01:18:13was hidden away.

01:18:14Filthy,

01:18:15pitch,

01:18:16dark.

01:18:17Thick layers of grease

01:18:18covered everything.

01:18:19I didn't complain,

01:18:20though,

01:18:21inside,

01:18:22I was actually pumped.

01:18:25Percy quickly realized

01:18:26someone had rented

01:18:27that dump

01:18:28across the street again.

01:18:29He got out of his fancy car,

01:18:31saw it was me,

01:18:32and just lost it,

01:18:33laughing so hard

01:18:34he could barely stand.

01:18:39Grayson,

01:18:39you absolute idiot.

01:18:41I gave you

01:18:42$100,000

01:18:42and you blow it

01:18:44on this rat hole?

01:18:45Don't you have any idea

01:18:46how good a life

01:18:47$100,000 could have bought you?

01:18:48I ignored him.

01:18:50Percy started wandering

01:18:51around the restaurant

01:18:51on his own,

01:18:52even pulled out his phone

01:18:54and went live,

01:18:55making exaggerated faces

01:18:56at the camera.

01:18:57Look at this, folks.

01:18:58Thick, nasty grease

01:19:00all over the tables.

01:19:01This place is so disgusting,

01:19:03I swear,

01:19:04even a rat

01:19:04wouldn't come near it.

01:19:06Then he put his arm

01:19:07around my shoulder

01:19:08and struck a friendly pose

01:19:09for the camera.

01:19:10Grayson,

01:19:10I'm your older brother.

01:19:12I have to take care of you.

01:19:14You're always welcome

01:19:15back at Iron Archer.

01:19:17I did fill your old spot

01:19:18for half the pay,

01:19:19but you know how replaceable

01:19:21that kind of job is.

01:19:22After humiliating me,

01:19:24Percy left the restaurant,

01:19:25satisfied.

01:19:26He had to get ready

01:19:27for the mayor's visit.

01:19:28He had his workers

01:19:29turn the place

01:19:30into a luxurious palace.

01:19:32But one thing

01:19:33he would never understand,

01:19:34a restaurant's

01:19:35true essence

01:19:35is the food.

01:19:36And me,

01:19:37I stayed up late

01:19:38every night,

01:19:39cleaning the restaurant.

01:19:42It was already

01:19:43three in the morning

01:19:44when I got home.

01:19:45The light was still on.

01:19:46I caught my reflection

01:19:47in the mirror

01:19:48by the door,

01:19:49covered in dirt.

01:19:49My face exhausted.

01:19:51I panicked.

01:19:52I didn't want

01:19:53my family to worry,

01:19:54but I knew

01:19:54I had to face it

01:19:55eventually.

01:19:56found a food.

01:19:56I could get

01:19:56I caught him

01:19:57because I did

01:19:57I was only

01:19:57after I saw something

01:19:57in my gutter and

01:19:58and then started
