00:00:03Breaking news, Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack.
00:00:08In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in ARKU's valuation.
00:00:23I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:28This isn't some random dip. Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:33We can't hold the line. We're about to become the laughingstock of Wall Street.
00:00:36No, no, we're not finished. We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julian, we need you. Again. Shit.
00:00:52Shh. Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing? Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:12Julian, you saved my ass last time. I owe you. I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:19Great.
00:01:24The stock price is recovering. How is that possible?
00:01:28Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:31Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:34Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes. Chairman's orders.
00:01:42Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you. Watch your back.
00:02:14Today, Damien successfully neutralized the short attack against
00:02:18Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:21Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:29Since when does Damien know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:33He must have stole this wing from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back and Damien used his pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:49Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire.
00:02:54The least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:55Damien.
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:01Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:10Julian.
00:03:11Our company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:16Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:21This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge.
00:03:25Wait, I'm sorry, everyone.
00:03:27I forgot.
00:03:29You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:31My strategies, you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:39Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, let's start with a question.
00:03:44Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:46And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter.
00:03:51What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55All right, fine.
00:03:56Next question.
00:03:58Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:04:00And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:12All right.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:16the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight,
00:04:18or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:25You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees the deal.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:45You know what, Clark?
00:04:46You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:59You hear that, Dad?
00:05:01I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:06Understood.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:09I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:22You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:27Harper's, uh, old friend, good staff, you know?
00:05:31Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:34What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:36Feelings could grow, brat.
00:05:39Our families go way better.
00:05:41Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life, my choice.
00:05:45Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that...
00:05:47Enough!
00:05:48Oh, that's it.
00:05:49You're going to do this.
00:05:51I've already arranged everything.
00:05:53You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:56Go work with Serena.
00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:02You refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse, Dr. Ann, check it out.
00:06:07My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:09What's the point?
00:06:10Okay.
00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:12Okay, all right.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:15I know when I'm asking.
00:06:17For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:21We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:23The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own youths, that brilliant head of youths, and help them.
00:06:34Please, for me.
00:06:36Fine.
00:06:37I'll do it.
00:06:39I hear you.
00:06:47For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:53I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:57I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:07:00And for what?
00:07:01So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:06It's time to come home.
00:07:13You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:15So, pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my door.
00:07:21I heard you.
00:07:22I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay, and then I'm gone.
00:07:25I said now!
00:07:26Or else I'm going to call security.
00:07:28I'm going to drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:30Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:36Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:39You will leave.
00:07:40Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:44Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it.
00:07:47And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:49You know what, Serena?
00:07:51Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:59You don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:03is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:06And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:09You're fucking nothing.
00:08:11You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:17So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking...
00:08:28You broke my petite.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:33A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your coursework.
00:08:40Julian, that is enough.
00:08:42Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:43Assault?
00:08:44Destruction of property?
00:08:46As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:50Effective immediately.
00:08:51Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:53Serena, you broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:56He has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:59Either pay up or I swear you're going to rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07I'll pay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What, one hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:16It's priceless.
00:09:17A million dollars being generous.
00:09:18You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:20A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:23He does have a point card.
00:09:25You break it, you buy it.
00:09:27That's the rule.
00:09:28Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:35Well, you're going to wire me the money?
00:09:38Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:40And if so, you can crawl out of here, and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:46So what if you're Serena's Beyonce?
00:09:49Look at her now.
00:09:50She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:54A million dollars.
00:09:56What's the final offer?
00:09:57What do you mean?
00:10:02Hi, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:16I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:23You just called for a million dollars in cash, like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next in a private army?
00:10:29All right, Julian, the charade ends now.
00:10:31Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:34But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:37We are done.
00:10:39You sure?
00:10:40Whoa, whoa.
00:10:41You heard that, Julian?
00:10:42Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I-
00:10:44Bro, get your hands off me!
00:10:49Put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:51You know what?
00:10:52I'm gonna wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:04Mr. Brooks.
00:11:07That's David Brooks, president of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street titan doing the accomplishment?
00:11:11Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:14It can't be.
00:11:15That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:21The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:25Okay.
00:11:46Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash to Julian?
00:11:50Wait, the money is-
00:11:52It's real?
00:11:53Wait.
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean-
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks, sir.
00:12:11We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:14My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:16I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with me sometime.
00:12:20Mr. Clark.
00:12:22Is there anything else you require?
00:12:24My resources are available.
00:12:26You dispose them.
00:12:26No, thank you.
00:12:27You can go down.
00:12:28Of course.
00:12:36A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:41Unprofessional.
00:12:42I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:44So, we'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:48Yes, sir.
00:12:49Mr. Brooks, I-
00:12:53Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:55Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:57The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, all right?
00:13:01You gotta fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated, or I swear I'm gonna-
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us,
00:13:12one million in full,
00:13:14which makes this watch
00:13:19it's mine.
00:13:21You arrogant son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:29I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:39The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:40But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:42That useless piece of junk, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:45Oh.
00:13:46I don't know.
00:13:46Maybe about a hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:56Have you lost your mind?
00:13:59A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian.
00:14:03The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:08That's illegal.
00:14:09So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:12By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:15Huh?
00:14:16That's a concern.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right,
00:14:22but a Stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars.
00:14:26A hundred million dollars?
00:14:28I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:30Sure.
00:14:30A standard Stellar isn't worth that much,
00:14:32but this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:34What is it made of gold?
00:14:35Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:38You know what?
00:14:40You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:49Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Bill Sullivan, SVP for Stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the $300 million partnership deal?
00:14:56Three hundred million?
00:14:58That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:04Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:07I'm Serena Harper, CEO.
00:15:09What do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark,
00:15:11the security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:15And the signal originated here.
00:15:16People concerned for your safety and came immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian, too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:28It just...
00:15:28took a fall.
00:15:31God.
00:15:32This damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components,
00:15:36preliminary repair estimate,
00:15:38this could be $30 million.
00:15:42$30 million?
00:15:43No, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:48Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50Well, open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop,
00:15:52with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:56You better pray that those data partitions are intact,
00:15:58or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:04It's highly confidential files,
00:16:06high market value.
00:16:08I mean, with our declarations,
00:16:09this is at least $70 million.
00:16:12What?
00:16:14That's $70 million?
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop
00:16:18registered with monetary values
00:16:19to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:24Here.
00:16:25Receipts for the hardware
00:16:27and the notarized value declarations
00:16:29for the data.
00:16:29See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around
00:16:40a $100 million laptop?
00:16:46Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:50In fact, can we stay on topic
00:16:51about my compensation?
00:16:52And there's no way
00:16:52that there's a fucking laptop
00:16:54that costs $100 million.
00:16:56You know what?
00:16:56This is a fucking scam.
00:16:57These two, they're working together.
00:16:59I'm telling you, it's a con.
00:17:00Are you serious?
00:17:01I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:03I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:05I don't fly across the city
00:17:06a scam and nobody like you.
00:17:07Listen, I'm so...
00:17:09Ms. Harper,
00:17:10this is the employee you hire.
00:17:13He's a fool.
00:17:14And it speaks volumes
00:17:15about your company's judgment.
00:17:17Oh, by the way,
00:17:18our partnership deal?
00:17:19Consider it terminated.
00:17:21What?
00:17:22Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:24Damien is just...
00:17:25He's stressed.
00:17:27He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it.
00:17:28You take care of
00:17:30Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:32You, if you dispute evaluations,
00:17:34we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:39I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:45He never lost.
00:17:46Damien can't fight this.
00:17:48Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise
00:17:50doesn't have the resources
00:17:51to fight this.
00:17:53He's done for.
00:17:55It's your name of hell.
00:17:57Please.
00:18:02Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:07Harper Enterprise will provide
00:18:09full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:11I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:14You need to discuss details
00:18:15with the laptop owner.
00:18:18Full payment
00:18:19in my account
00:18:21within three days.
00:18:23In that case,
00:18:24we're done here.
00:18:25Mr. Clark,
00:18:26you call me with anything else?
00:18:28I'm done.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:31Mr. Harper...
00:18:32get your house in order first.
00:18:34Stellar has standards.
00:18:36We don't partner
00:18:36with clown shows.
00:18:38That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40Oh, that's funny.
00:18:42Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:43A hundred million on the line
00:18:45and you swoop in
00:18:46to cover for him.
00:18:47You know,
00:18:47I just hope that your father
00:18:48and your grandfather
00:18:49are as generous as you are.
00:18:52Whether her father
00:18:53or Chairman Harper
00:18:54approve is none of your
00:18:55goddamn business!
00:18:56We don't need someone like you
00:18:58worrying about it!
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian,
00:19:02I give you my word.
00:19:03The full amount
00:19:03will be paid within three days,
00:19:05but under one condition.
00:19:06Our engagement
00:19:08ends for good.
00:19:09And you
00:19:10will leave Harper Enterprise
00:19:12now.
00:19:13You hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know,
00:19:15I'll admit it.
00:19:16Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:16But it's not about
00:19:17what you made.
00:19:18It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:19And now you're just
00:19:19a spoiled little trust fund baby
00:19:21who's been fired.
00:19:22So get the fuck out!
00:19:24Get the fuck out?
00:19:26One of us
00:19:27just torpedoed
00:19:28a hundred million dollar loan
00:19:30and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me,
00:19:32which one of us
00:19:33should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena,
00:19:36I think it is actually
00:19:36time to call your grandfather.
00:19:37He could definitely
00:19:38settle all of this.
00:19:42Stop.
00:19:43Stop!
00:19:48This boy twice
00:19:49thinks he has the fucking right
00:19:50to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:52Who gives you
00:19:52the goddamn right?
00:19:55funny.
00:19:56Guy hides behind a woman
00:19:57to pay his bill.
00:19:59Remind me,
00:19:59which one of us
00:20:00is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:14Get the fuck out!
00:20:15Julian,
00:20:16I don't care
00:20:16what kind of connections
00:20:17you think you have.
00:20:18This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:21I'm the one
00:20:21in charge here.
00:20:24Security,
00:20:24remove him.
00:20:28Julian,
00:20:28please,
00:20:29don't make us
00:20:30get physical.
00:20:31I'm the one
00:20:31Chairman Harper
00:20:32personally brought in.
00:20:33You really want
00:20:33to lay hands on me?
00:20:34Ha ha ha!
00:20:35Chairman Harper
00:20:36brought you in!
00:20:38Julian,
00:20:38have you lost
00:20:38your fucking mind?
00:20:40What do you think
00:20:41you are?
00:20:42You think
00:20:42you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian,
00:20:44I've already
00:20:45given you
00:20:45more courtesy
00:20:46than you deserve.
00:20:47The more you cling
00:20:47on like this,
00:20:48the more disgusting
00:20:49you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55It looks like
00:20:56I don't need
00:20:56that phone call.
00:20:57Still running
00:20:57your mouth,
00:20:58huh?

00:21:23filled in
00:21:23on everything
00:21:24that's
00:21:24gone on today.
00:21:26I know
00:21:27that you've
00:21:27been wronged
00:21:28by this guy.
00:21:31Please,

00:21:37to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa,
00:21:39what are you
00:21:40doing?
00:21:42Chairman Harper,
00:21:43he's a loser
00:21:44who's addicted
00:21:44to playing games.
00:21:45How could you
00:21:46possibly?
00:21:47Shut up!
00:21:54Serena,
00:21:56how dare you
00:21:57disrespect Julian!
00:21:58Dad,
00:21:58I don't care
00:21:59what kind of
00:21:59background Julian
00:22:00has.
00:22:00You can't
00:22:01just hit people!
00:22:02I wish we
00:22:02hit him more.
00:22:03Serena,
00:22:04do you even
00:22:05have any idea?
00:22:07who Julian
00:22:07Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't
00:22:09tell you
00:22:09everything
00:22:09because of
00:22:10your ego
00:22:10and I
00:22:11didn't want
00:22:11to hurt
00:22:11your feelings.
00:22:13We're going
00:22:13to announce
00:22:13everything
00:22:14once the
00:22:14engagement
00:22:15was formally
00:22:15set.
00:22:16But who
00:22:17knew?
00:22:18Serena,
00:22:18you've been
00:22:19blind.
00:22:20Julian is...
00:22:21Thomas,
00:22:22you can't force
00:22:22something that
00:22:22isn't there.
00:22:23No real
00:22:24feelings,
00:22:25no need to go
00:22:26forward with
00:22:26the engagement.
00:22:27Julian,
00:22:28please,
00:22:28understand,
00:22:29all of this
00:22:30is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's
00:22:32happened here
00:22:33today is the
00:22:33fault of the
00:22:34Harperfin.
00:22:35Give me a chance
00:22:37to make it
00:22:37right.
00:22:41Apologize to
00:22:42Julian,
00:22:43now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care
00:22:45who you are,
00:22:46Julian.
00:22:47To me,
00:22:48you're still just
00:22:48a spoiled brat
00:22:49who thinks of
00:22:50himself as some
00:22:51sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality,
00:22:54all you know
00:22:55is playing
00:22:56video games.
00:22:57I see right
00:22:58through you,
00:22:59and I will
00:23:00not apologize
00:23:01to you!
00:23:02Serena,
00:23:03enough!
00:23:03Julian,
00:23:04she's just
00:23:04being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Save it.
00:23:08Serena can't
00:23:09manage an apology
00:23:10herself,
00:23:11and I have no
00:23:12reason to protect
00:23:12this company
00:23:13anymore.
00:23:15Issue my
00:23:16order.
00:23:17Suspend all
00:23:18support for
00:23:18Harper Enterprise.
00:23:20Cease every
00:23:20protective measure
00:23:21effective immediately.
00:23:23Julian,
00:23:23please,
00:23:24don't.
00:23:24Without you,
00:23:25this place
00:23:25doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:34What?
00:23:35What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess
00:23:36you could've
00:23:37just pulled
00:23:37out orders.
00:23:38What do you
00:23:38mean,
00:23:38hostile takeover?
00:23:40All of my
00:23:40investors pulled
00:23:41out.
00:23:41How can
00:23:42that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise
00:23:47stock plunges
00:23:4830% in minutes,
00:23:50wiping out
00:23:50billions in
00:23:51market value.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52My entire
00:23:53division just
00:23:54stopped.
00:23:54We can't
00:23:55operate like
00:23:55this.
00:23:55A stunning
00:23:56reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's
00:23:58many allies
00:23:59withdraw their
00:24:00investments in
00:24:00an instant,
00:24:01leaving the
00:24:02group facing
00:24:02massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be
00:24:04all these months
00:24:05the company's
00:24:06been supported
00:24:07by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking
00:24:09Wall Street.
00:24:10Why did
00:24:11Harper Enterprises
00:24:12suddenly lose
00:24:13power?
00:24:13What caused
00:24:14them to lose
00:24:15their backing?
00:24:17How was that
00:24:17possible?
00:24:19Are you
00:24:19attacking the
00:24:20company?
00:24:21No matter
00:24:21who is behind
00:24:22this, I,
00:24:23Serena,
00:24:23will never
00:24:23bow down
00:24:24to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise
00:24:28will not yield
00:24:29to any market
00:24:30attacks,
00:24:30do whatever
00:24:31it takes
00:24:31to stabilize
00:24:32the stocks!
00:24:33Miss Harper,
00:24:33this isn't a
00:24:34race!
00:24:35Our major
00:24:35partners are
00:24:36terminating
00:24:36their contracts,
00:24:37and our own
00:24:38liquidity can't
00:24:39cover the gas!
00:24:40If this continues,
00:24:41the stocks will
00:24:42crash straight
00:24:42through the floor!
00:24:44What did you
00:24:45say?
00:24:46Damn it!
00:24:47How could that
00:24:48trash have such
00:24:49kind of power?
00:24:50Why him?
00:24:51I won't accept
00:24:52this!
00:24:52I won't!
00:24:53Serena,
00:24:53how can you
00:24:54stand there
00:24:55and watch
00:24:55Harper Enterprises

00:24:57ground around
00:24:57your feet?

00:25:00Julian!
00:25:00No!
00:25:05Serena,

00:25:23of dollars!
00:25:24You really
00:25:24think we
00:25:25can't survive
00:25:25without him?
00:25:26Let's just
00:25:27get through
00:25:27this crisis
00:25:27and I swear
00:25:28I will make

00:25:47only one
00:25:48who actually

00:25:49me and I
00:25:49won't let
00:25:49you treat him

00:25:54going to go
00:25:54to war with
00:25:55Julian over
00:25:55this snake?
00:25:57Do you
00:25:57even have
00:25:58any idea
00:25:59who he
00:25:59really is?
00:26:00Whoever
00:26:00he is,
00:26:01it doesn't
00:26:01give him
00:26:01the right
00:26:02to just
00:26:02bully people
00:26:02like this!
00:26:03I cannot
00:26:04stand
00:26:05bullies
00:26:06who throw
00:26:06their weight
00:26:06around and
00:26:07today that
00:26:08is exactly
00:26:08what you
00:26:09look like
00:26:09to me!
00:26:10Serena,
00:26:10that is
00:26:11enough!
00:26:11You hate
00:26:12bullies
00:26:12who throw
00:26:13their weight
00:26:13around,
00:26:13right?
00:26:14What about
00:26:14this guy?
00:26:15What about
00:26:16him?
00:26:16He hides
00:26:17behind your
00:26:17name to steal
00:26:18other people's
00:26:18work.
00:26:19He throws
00:26:19tea on me
00:26:20in this very
00:26:20room.
00:26:21He squeezes
00:26:22a million dollars
00:26:22out of me
00:26:23just for a
00:26:23hundred thousand
00:26:24dollar watch.
00:26:24Don't you think
00:26:25that's bullying?
00:26:27Oh, I...
00:26:29But you hate
00:26:30bullies,
00:26:30right?
00:26:32Hey, you're
00:26:32no saint.
00:26:34You're just
00:26:34biased.
00:26:36I've been
00:26:37engaged to you
00:26:37for the past
00:26:38six months.
00:26:39I have asked
00:26:40you out
00:26:4037 times
00:26:42because I
00:26:43thought we
00:26:43should at
00:26:43least get
00:26:44to know
00:26:44each other.
00:26:44Every time
00:26:45I have asked
00:26:46you out,
00:26:46you said,
00:26:47I'm too
00:26:47busy with
00:26:48work.
00:26:49But that
00:26:49wasn't the
00:26:50truth.
00:26:50The truth
00:26:51is that you
00:26:52were too
00:26:52busy dating
00:26:53this sycophant
00:26:54listening to
00:26:54him sing
00:26:55your praises,
00:26:55right?
00:26:58Who's that?
00:26:59Oh, let me
00:26:59guess.
00:27:00Julian's
00:27:01still asking
00:27:01him out?
00:27:05Just
00:27:05ignore him.
00:27:07Is he
00:27:07still your
00:27:08fiance?
00:27:09Is it
00:27:10okay you
00:27:10still keep
00:27:11blowing him
00:27:11off?
00:27:13I just,
00:27:14I can't
00:27:14stand him.
00:27:15A spoiled
00:27:16heir who
00:27:16thinks the
00:27:17world revolves
00:27:18around him?
00:27:21So what
00:27:21if I did?
00:27:23Who I
00:27:23choose to
00:27:24hang out
00:27:24with is
00:27:24my own
00:27:25choice.
00:27:25We're
00:27:26engaged,
00:27:27not
00:27:27married.
00:27:28I can
00:27:28see whoever
00:27:29I want.
00:27:30Serena,
00:27:31shut up.
00:27:32No,
00:27:32I am
00:27:33not done.
00:27:34Damien
00:27:35has worked
00:27:36himself to
00:27:36the bone.
00:27:37He is
00:27:37driven and
00:27:39disciplined
00:27:39and when
00:27:40Harper first
00:27:40went public,
00:27:41he was a
00:27:42key reason
00:27:42that we
00:27:42made it.
00:27:43If you
00:27:44had even
00:27:44half his
00:27:45talent,
00:27:45Julian,
00:27:46maybe I
00:27:47would have
00:27:47said yes
00:27:47to once.
00:27:49But you
00:27:50don't.
00:27:53Damien
00:27:54was a
00:27:54key reason
00:27:54you made.
00:27:55That's
00:27:55your story,
00:27:56right?
00:27:56What is
00:27:57so funny?
00:27:57I mean,
00:27:58I'm laughing
00:27:59at just how
00:27:59foolish you
00:28:00are.
00:28:01Do you know
00:28:02why for the
00:28:03past six
00:28:03months all of
00:28:04your proposals
00:28:05have sailed
00:28:05through?
00:28:06Why every deal
00:28:07that you like
00:28:08happened to
00:28:08have closed?
00:28:09Why every
00:28:10time that you
00:28:10wanted a loan,
00:28:11the banks
00:28:12rolled out a
00:28:12special fast track
00:28:13for you?
00:28:14Because Damien
00:28:14is brilliant.
00:28:15Because he
00:28:16has cleared
00:28:17every obstacle
00:28:18in my way.
00:28:18Damien?
00:28:19Brilliant?
00:28:20That was
00:28:21Julian.
00:28:23Julian is
00:28:24the one
00:28:24who quietly
00:28:25has held
00:28:25this entire
00:28:26thing together.
00:28:27Serena.
00:28:29No,
00:28:29that is
00:28:30impossible.
00:28:31I don't
00:28:32believe it.
00:28:41Hey.
00:28:42Hi's up,
00:28:43Serena.
00:28:44In the past
00:28:44six months,
00:28:45I've called in
00:28:4647 separate
00:28:46connections
00:28:47and cleared
00:28:47a path
00:28:48for you.
00:28:48Oh,

00:28:54Northbridge,

00:28:56Those are
00:28:57all the top
00:28:5750 global
00:28:58giants.
00:28:58They've
00:28:59all been
00:28:59backing us
00:29:00behind the
00:29:00scenes?
00:29:01No wonder
00:29:01every project
00:29:02went so
00:29:02smoothly.
00:29:03Julian's
00:29:04the one
00:29:04with this
00:29:04kind of
00:29:04network.
00:29:05Damien's
00:29:06got some
00:29:06nerves
00:29:07stealing credit
00:29:07for something
00:29:08like this.
00:29:08That's
00:29:09a death
00:29:09witch.
00:29:12No,
00:29:13no,

00:29:18and my
00:29:19connections.
00:29:19You
00:29:20arrogant
00:29:20fool.
00:29:22Did you
00:29:23think you
00:29:23could step
00:29:24in here
00:29:24and steal
00:29:24credit from
00:29:25everything?
00:29:32Alright,
00:29:32that's
00:29:33enough.
00:29:34I finally
00:29:35got the
00:29:35all clear
00:29:35from my
00:29:36grandfather.
00:29:36I can go
00:29:37home.
00:29:38So as
00:29:38of right
00:29:39now,
00:29:39our
00:29:39engagement
00:29:39is
00:29:40terminated.
00:29:41Julian,
00:29:42all of this
00:29:42has been
00:29:43our fault.
00:29:44But the
00:29:45engagement...
00:29:45Let him
00:29:46go.
00:29:46I don't
00:29:46need a
00:29:47fiancé
00:29:47who uses
00:29:48his
00:29:48family
00:29:48background
00:29:49to wreck
00:29:49people.
00:29:52Without
00:29:53my
00:29:53connections
00:29:54and my
00:29:54network,
00:29:55Harper

00:30:13You
00:30:13silly,
00:30:14foolish,
00:30:15foolish girl.
00:30:16Grandpa,
00:30:17I have
00:30:18never
00:30:18been
00:30:19clearer.
00:30:19With
00:30:19or without
00:30:20him,
00:30:20I will
00:30:21lead
00:30:21Harper
00:30:21Enterprise
00:30:21back to
00:30:22the top.
00:30:22Serena's
00:30:23right.
00:30:24Mr.
00:30:24Harper,
00:30:24Chairman
00:30:25Harper,
00:30:25I'm
00:30:25going to
00:30:26stand by
00:30:26Serena's
00:30:26side,
00:30:27and I'm
00:30:27going to
00:30:27give her
00:30:27everything
00:30:28that I've
00:30:29got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm
00:30:30going to
00:30:31beat the
00:30:31crap out of
00:30:31you once
00:30:32and for
00:30:32all.
00:30:33Dad,
00:30:34that is
00:30:34enough.
00:30:36Dad,
00:30:37Grandpa,
00:30:38I know
00:30:39you have
00:30:39your issues
00:30:40with Damien,
00:30:41but I
00:30:41believe he
00:30:42will prove
00:30:42himself to
00:30:43you,
00:30:43and so
00:30:44will I.
00:30:46I will
00:30:47show
00:30:47everyone
00:30:48here that
00:30:48what Harper
00:30:49achieved over
00:30:49the past
00:30:50six months
00:30:50was my
00:30:50work.
00:30:51It has
00:30:52nothing to
00:30:53do with
00:30:53Julian.
00:30:54This meeting
00:30:55is over.
00:30:57Serena,
00:30:57wait up!
00:30:59You!
00:31:00God,
00:31:00tell me what
00:31:01to do with
00:31:02this reckless
00:31:03granddaughter.
00:31:08Serena,
00:31:08Serena!
00:31:09Don't even
00:31:10worry about
00:31:11that.
00:31:11I know
00:31:11our Enterprise
00:31:11took a huge
00:31:12hit today,
00:31:13but as long
00:31:13as we lock
00:31:13down Amber
00:31:14Group's
00:31:14Cressel 8
00:31:15project,
00:31:15change the
00:31:16game,
00:31:16and everyone
00:31:17will still
00:31:18think that
00:31:18we're in
00:31:18control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3
00:31:21billion Cressel
00:31:22Lake project.
00:31:24If we can
00:31:24win that
00:31:25contract,
00:31:26we can wipe
00:31:26all the
00:31:27problems we've
00:31:27been facing.
00:31:29Damien,
00:31:29you've secured
00:31:30several of
00:31:31Amber Group's
00:31:32projects before,
00:31:33and I'm going
00:31:34to put this
00:31:34one in your
00:31:34hands too.
00:31:35It's not
00:31:36going to be
00:31:36a problem,
00:31:36right?
00:31:37No,
00:31:37no,
00:31:37absolutely.
00:31:37You're going
00:31:38to count on
00:31:38me.
00:31:39Amber Group's
00:31:40deputy VP
00:31:41of projects,
00:31:41I mean,
00:31:41he trusts me
00:31:42clearly.
00:31:44He's as good
00:31:44as ours.
00:31:52Get the
00:31:53Crescent Lake
00:31:53contract ready.
00:31:55Same as always.
00:31:55Once the
00:31:56Harper team arrives,
00:31:57we hand it
00:31:58straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson,
00:31:59we just got an update.
00:32:00Julian Clark has
00:32:01been kicked out of
00:32:02Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement
00:32:03is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him
00:32:05and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she
00:32:12listened to her
00:32:13assistant Damien
00:32:13who really stirred
00:32:14the pot,
00:32:15and then Serena
00:32:15personally pushed
00:32:16Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really
00:32:18thinks she got
00:32:18where she was
00:32:19because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your
00:32:21little lap dog?
00:32:22Then do we
00:32:23still hand the
00:32:24Crescent Lake
00:32:25project over to
00:32:26Harper Enterprise?
00:32:27Without Julian,
00:32:28Harper Enterprise
00:32:29really thinks it's
00:32:30worthy of Crescent
00:32:31Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to
00:32:33public bidding.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:43Now that is
00:32:44an amazing shot,
00:32:44Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien,
00:32:47Crescent Lake's
00:32:47public bid is
00:32:48coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper
00:32:50Enterprise looking?
00:33:06What does this
00:33:07mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks,
00:33:08why don't you
00:33:09do yourself a favor
00:33:09and take a closer look?
00:33:13That's one million
00:33:14in clean crypto,
00:33:16untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise
00:33:18is totally prepared
00:33:19to take on
00:33:20Crescent Lake.
00:33:22We just need you
00:33:23to give us a little
00:33:24extra attention.
00:33:26Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:29Sure, it's a
00:33:30public bidding
00:33:31on paper,
00:33:32but as long
00:33:33as I'm here,
00:33:34you've got nothing
00:33:35to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:42Miss Larson
00:33:43usually hands
00:33:43Harper Enterprises
00:33:44whatever they want
00:33:45anyway.
00:33:47Well,
00:33:48thank you very much,
00:33:49Mr. Brooks.
00:34:16Well,
00:34:17wow.
00:34:19Brent's children.
00:34:22All right,
00:34:22Serena kicked you out.
00:34:24Six months
00:34:25of hard work
00:34:26down the drain.
00:34:28What does that feel?
00:34:30Oh,
00:34:31I see.
00:34:31So you brought me
00:34:32to your party
00:34:33just to mock me
00:34:34a little bit.
00:34:34Is that right?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:37Not.
00:34:40I'm here
00:34:41to steal you.
00:34:42You see,
00:34:44since
00:34:45your engagement
00:34:46is off,
00:34:47I was thinking
00:34:49how about
00:34:50you consider
00:34:50me, huh?
00:34:54Guys like us,
00:34:55we don't get
00:34:56to escape alliances.
00:34:57Our families
00:34:59will bear
00:34:59us off
00:35:00either way,
00:35:00so
00:35:02why pick a stranger
00:35:03when there's
00:35:05someone who
00:35:06actually knows you?
00:35:07you see?
00:35:09Childhood friends,
00:35:11same circles,
00:35:1415 years
00:35:15of school.
00:35:16We match,
00:35:18you know?
00:35:19We fit.
00:35:22Hang on.
00:35:23Nora,
00:35:23are you saying this
00:35:24because you're drunk
00:35:25or do you...
00:35:34I'm not drunk.
00:35:35Okay?
00:35:36You don't have to
00:35:37answer me tonight,
00:35:38just think about it.
00:35:41Hmm?
00:35:46you know?
00:36:02I'm not drunk or
00:36:09you.
00:36:11I told you, I'm not drunk.
00:36:13All right, this one should come off.
00:36:16Oh, shit.
00:36:18I'm drunk.
00:36:20All right, this one should come off.
00:36:22Oh, shit.
00:36:23I'm drunk.
00:36:39Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO.
00:36:42Allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:46Oh, I am so sorry.
00:36:48Bad, bad timing.
00:36:49Truly terrible timing.
00:36:59Don't move.
00:37:00If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:03Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:05Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:09I'm not going to lose tomorrow's company's visibility,
00:37:12but I'm not letting the pictures of my breasts go through.
00:37:15Okay.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:20But if you stay through to me,
00:37:22like this for the rest of the night,
00:37:26I think my heart's going to skip on its chest.
00:37:41And suffer, okay?
00:37:44If you push me,
00:37:46I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:53Please,
00:37:54please,
00:37:55walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:11Speak of the devil of all good times.
00:38:19You know,
00:38:20this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:22You know what I lost?
00:38:23It's not exactly the kind of place
00:38:25where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:27Oh, wait.
00:38:30Well, well.
00:38:32I mean,
00:38:33your engagement ends
00:38:33and you move on in record time.
00:38:36Feelings for Serena
00:38:37weren't that deep after all.
00:38:39Can I help you with something?
00:38:42Seriously?
00:38:43This woman's even prettier than Serena.
00:38:45How does a loser like Julian
00:38:46always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:50Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here,
00:38:52she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:56Pouring herself out like this?
00:38:59It's me all take her.
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:02Now I hear your company's looking to bid
00:39:04on Amber Group's Christmas project.
00:39:09What, you're bidding too?
00:39:11Yeah, I know you got connection.
00:39:12And that's great, you know.
00:39:13But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:15Me, I got real talent, all right?
00:39:17And I'm going to win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:20You, you're just going to fucking lose
00:39:21like you lose everything else.
00:39:24Good luck.
00:39:36See that?
00:39:37That is a shameless whore.
00:39:40That woman seems familiar.
00:39:43Samantha, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:46All right, come on.
00:39:47Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:48Let's go socialize,
00:39:49and maybe we'll run into the host of the party,
00:39:51lost in yourself.
00:39:53And if we do,
00:39:55I'll make sure we're getting good at this.
00:40:14So, that pretty boy Damien actually said
00:40:16that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:19Tonight we're going to see who's really on top.
00:40:22Okay.
00:40:23Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:25What?
00:40:27You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:29Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:31But if you like glassy,
00:40:34I can do glassy.
00:40:35Oh, can you?
00:40:36You can do glassy?
00:40:37Yeah.
00:40:38Miss Lawson,
00:40:39it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:46I'll let you get to it.
00:40:50Shall we?
00:41:08Julia.
00:41:11I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:13You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:17You know what?
00:41:19Mason Brooks,
00:41:20this is Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects,
00:41:22already agreed to award the contract
00:41:24to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:27You can't win.
00:41:31I hear the Crescent Lake Project
00:41:33is basically yours.
00:41:34Congratulations.
00:41:36Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street,
00:41:38and with Damien backing you up,
00:41:40it's unstoppable.
00:41:41When the two of you take off,
00:41:42don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:44Of course.
00:41:45You know, we're going to take care of you guys.
00:41:46Thank you so much.
00:41:54See that, Julian?
00:41:56Everybody already knows
00:41:57that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:59I suggest you walk out of here
00:42:01before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:42:03It's funny.
00:42:04You see,
00:42:04my Clark Group has deeper capital,
00:42:06better tech,
00:42:07and a stronger global record
00:42:09than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:10so I'm just curious.
00:42:12Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:14He recognizes Damien's talent,
00:42:16of course.
00:42:21I need to take this.
00:42:28I need to take this.
00:42:40I ain't really that fucking stupid.
00:42:42Of course this.
00:42:45I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:48What do you have
00:42:49that's going to be that?
00:42:52You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:54That's impossible.
00:42:55He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56That's impossible.
00:42:57He wouldn't dare.
00:42:58Yeah, you want to understand
00:42:59the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:43:02But hey,
00:43:02you're a very lovely,
00:43:05beautiful escort.
00:43:05Why don't you do us all a favor,
00:43:07get up on that stage
00:43:07and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:10Hey,
00:43:11I'm going to tell you,
00:43:11you want to know
00:43:12why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:16Because every time
00:43:17I give Mason Brooks
00:43:18a nice little fortune,
00:43:22capital technology
00:43:24is useless.
00:43:25Fucking trash!
00:43:28Mason Brooks,
00:43:29you've got a lot in there.
00:43:31He's finished.
00:43:32Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:34Who the fuck is this?
00:43:36Who are you?
00:43:37What do you think?
00:43:38You're the Amber Group CEO
00:43:39or something?
00:43:41Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:43It's adorable, no?
00:43:44Amber Group's
00:43:45anti-corruption code did.
00:43:47Anti-anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:50No.
00:44:02What are you going to report,
00:44:03Mr. Brooks?
00:44:07You hit me.
00:44:09You think you put
00:44:10your fucking hands on me?
00:44:12I'm going to have
00:44:12Mason Brooks crush you
00:44:13with one phone call.
00:44:17There he is.
00:44:18Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:19You're finished.
00:44:22Mr. Brooks.
00:44:23You mean my friend?
00:44:25There's a woman here.
00:44:26She says she's going to report to you.
00:44:27Come on, please.
00:44:28Teach her a lesson.
00:44:28Oh, report me?
00:44:30Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:32This woman right here.
00:44:36Miss Lawson?
00:44:37She's even quoted
00:44:38the anti-corruption code
00:44:39like she's somebody.
00:44:40How fucking ridiculous.
00:44:42What?
00:44:43What?
00:44:46This can't be...
00:44:50Go ahead.
00:44:50Laugh.
00:44:51Laugh some more.
00:44:52Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:54You'll say anything out loud.
00:44:56Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:56She's just some gold-dicking whore.
00:44:58I mean, even if she rats you out,
00:45:00who's going to believe this?
00:45:01No!
00:45:02Why are you hitting me?
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:05When did I ever take your money?
00:45:07I never took one cent.
00:45:09Say it again,
00:45:10and I'll bury you.
00:45:12Idiot!
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15This Lawson, this Damien,
00:45:17he's a lunatic.
00:45:18He's making things up.
00:45:20Don't listen to him.
00:45:21I swear,
00:45:22I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:24Not once!
00:45:27Ms. Lawson?
00:45:30No, no, wait.
00:45:32You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:33Amber's group CEO?
00:45:35How is that possible?
00:45:36How is that fucking...
00:45:36Mr. Brooks?
00:45:38Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:40Thank you so much for awarding
00:45:41the Crescent Lake Project
00:45:42to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:44We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:48Stop!
00:45:49Shut the fuck up!
00:45:50When did I ever give you anything?
00:45:54Ms. Lawson?
00:45:55These Harper Enterprise people,
00:45:57they're all out of their minds.
00:45:59They lie like the wind.
00:46:01I can't believe a word they say.
00:46:03Ms. Lawson?
00:46:05Ms. Lawson?
00:46:08She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:18Oh...
00:46:20Ms. Lawson, I am...
00:46:22I am so sorry.
00:46:23Damien didn't know who you were,
00:46:26so he thought that you and Julian
00:46:27were being, um, inappropriate.
00:46:30But I'll make him apologize right now.
00:46:33He is blunt, yes.
00:46:35But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:39Please, give Harper Enterprise the contract,
00:46:42and I promise we will deliver results
00:46:44that satisfy you.
00:46:46Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course.
00:46:50If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him
00:46:53so many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out.
00:47:03Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh, shit.
00:47:07I can't let her find out
00:47:09I secured every project right.
00:47:11She's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:13So she wants revenge.
00:47:15So she's going to embarrass Harper Enterprise
00:47:17in front of everyone.
00:47:18So what we need to do
00:47:18is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:20Let's go.
00:47:20Go?
00:47:21If we don't win Crescent Lake,
00:47:24Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:26Even if Ms. Lawson is trying to punish us,
00:47:28we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:30Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay?
00:47:31I'm sorry.
00:47:32Here we go now.
00:47:34All right?
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects,
00:47:35the biggest ones,
00:47:36but we need to go now.
00:47:37Come on.
00:47:37What is wrong with you today?
00:47:40Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:54You want to understand the rules
00:47:55on top there, sweetheart?
00:47:58Technology capital.
00:48:00Useless fucking trash.
00:48:02What?
00:48:03Shit!
00:48:04She actually recorded it?
00:48:05And escort.
00:48:06So why don't you do us all
00:48:08a nice little favor,
00:48:08get up on that stage,
00:48:09you should give us a nice little poll show.
00:48:14Who is that?
00:48:15He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?
00:48:18That's Damien Blackwell,
00:48:19Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.
00:48:21How do you not know him?
00:48:23All of the best Amber projects
00:48:24being sent to Harper Enterprise
00:48:26over the past six months,
00:48:27and now we know they were bought.
00:48:32That's not true.
00:48:33All of that's a lie.
00:48:34Just don't believe it.
00:48:35Just turn it up.
00:48:36Turn it up right now!
00:48:37Stop him!
00:48:38Stop him!
00:48:39Let go of me!
00:48:42Damien, you did this behind my back.
00:48:44This is your talent?
00:48:45Your ability?
00:48:47Master, I mean,
00:48:48please just see us.
00:48:49Mr. Brooks' assistant,
00:48:51what a fucking routine.
00:48:52Listen to Sammy.
00:48:53Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think,
00:48:55you're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:56Amber Group.
00:48:58I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:48:59Turn it off, please.
00:49:00Okay?
00:49:00Okay, Miss Lawson,
00:49:01please just turn it off.
00:49:03Just, please stop it!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:05Please!
00:49:06Bribery is one thing,
00:49:07but mistaking Miss Lawson for an escort?
00:49:10A whore?
00:49:12He's fucking blind.
00:49:14The best part?
00:49:15He confessed right in front of her
00:49:16that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:18Genius!
00:49:19And Serena trusted him to be her assistant?
00:49:22I mean, what does that say about her judgment?
00:49:24Damien,
00:49:25you have disappointed me beyond words.
00:49:28Serena, I did it because I cared about you.
00:49:30Because I care about Harper Enterprise.
00:49:32Please, I'm happy.
00:49:33Can you tell me the truth?
00:49:35Enough.
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:38Mason Brooks,
00:49:39you're fired.
00:49:40Effective immediately.
00:49:43I'm done.
00:49:44The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:48Harper Enterprise is disqualified.
00:49:51Every single project Amber Group has done together with them
00:49:53will be suspended.
00:49:55The projects will be back for competitive bidding.
00:50:00No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:02Those projects are our next three years.
00:50:04They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:06Their lives are future.
00:50:08And why am the person who hired Trash
00:50:10and called it talent?
00:50:13Real talent.
00:50:20Pathetic.
00:50:25Serena.
00:50:29Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:31Miss Lawson, wait.
00:50:33Serena.
00:50:42I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:50:45Asking for our dinner isn't too much, right?
00:50:48Not at all.
00:50:49You pick.
00:50:50My treat.
00:50:51Generous.
00:50:52Let's go.
00:50:53Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:57Miss Lawson.
00:50:59Damien was wrong to bribe anyone.
00:51:02And I apologize on his behalf.
00:51:05Just please, give Harper Enterprise another chance.
00:51:10I will meet the highest standards.
00:51:12I will deliver a perfect result on every project.
00:51:16Perfect result?
00:51:17And what exactly guarantees that?
00:51:20Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:22Miss Lawson.
00:51:24Damien made a mistake.
00:51:27But his ability is exceptional.
00:51:30For six months, he managed every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly.
00:51:34No errors, no delays.
00:51:36If you don't pull this contract,
00:51:38I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:51:44Managed flawlessly.
00:51:46He's not the only empty suit here.
00:51:49You're too.
00:51:51Miss Lawson, you are crossing a line.
00:51:56I understand that you and Julian are close and you want to get back at me for him.
00:52:01But humiliating someone like this, isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:05You really think I froze our cooperation because Damien, right, Mason?
00:52:10Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:11For six months, Harper Enterprise got everything it wanted from Ember Group.
00:52:19For one reason.
00:52:21Julian Clark.
00:52:23Damien has nothing to do with that.
00:52:27He was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts.
00:52:30What?
00:52:31When Julian was there, bribe or no bribe, Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway.
00:52:37But now, Julian's gone, so the special treatment is gone.
00:52:42Damien's little arriving incident,
00:52:44it was just a convenient excuse to take everything back.
00:52:48Understand now?
00:52:52And about those flawless projects,
00:52:56Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because Damien is brilliant.
00:53:00It ran smoothly because Julian called every partner,
00:53:04every supplier, every gatekeeper and cleared the path for you.
00:53:09Damien had nothing to do with that.
00:53:13No.
00:53:15That's not true.
00:53:16I don't believe it.
00:53:18You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch.
00:53:20Watch what happens when Julian leaves.
00:53:24Let's see if your exceptional Damien can keep everything perfect
00:53:28when Julian is not there to hold the world together for you.
00:53:33Come on, let's go.
00:53:41Julian, is what she's saying true?
00:53:45You were right about one thing, Serena.
00:53:48Julian and I are closer than you thought.
00:53:50That's why it disgusts me watching him
00:53:52waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like you.
00:54:01Was I wrong?
00:54:02No, no, no, Serena, Serena.
00:54:04Do not listen to her nonsense.
00:54:05Harper's success is based off of my hard work.
00:54:09Okay, Nora Lawson, she's attacking and slandering my name to defend.
00:54:14Julian, you have to believe me.
00:54:15Please, you have to understand.
00:54:16Because of you,
00:54:18Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:20Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:23Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse
00:54:25and you're asking me to trust you?
00:54:27How?
00:54:28Tell me how.
00:54:30Please, just listen to me.
00:54:32Okay, yeah, we lost Amber group,
00:54:33but we're not finished.
00:54:35I mean, we still have the partners and the CEOs.
00:54:37I mean, they love me.
00:54:38They absolutely love and adore me.
00:54:41I promise.
00:54:42You know what?
00:54:42Matter of fact,
00:54:43I'm going to call
00:54:43and I'm going to get you some new projects right now.
00:54:49Hello, Mr. Foster.
00:54:50It's Damien here.
00:54:51I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids
00:54:53and Harper Enterprise,
00:54:55you know, we would absolutely love.
00:54:57Harper Enterprise?
00:54:58Who the hell is that?
00:55:00Do you think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:05Mr. Foster,
00:55:06what do you mean?
00:55:08Last time we spoke,
00:55:09you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise
00:55:12and that you would love to work together.
00:55:14Listen up.
00:55:14That's because Julian Clark
00:55:16was in your damn enterprise.
00:55:18I was giving him respect.
00:55:20You don't flatter yourself,
00:55:22bunch of blind dumbasses.
00:55:24Call me again
00:55:24and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:27So what really was Julian?
00:55:28No, no.
00:55:29That's not possible.
00:55:31I don't believe that.
00:55:32I don't.
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:35It's Damien.
00:55:35I was hoping to talk about future collaborations.
00:55:37Damien?
00:55:38You've got the fucking nerve to call me?
00:56:09I gave Harper Enterprise Projects because of Mr. Clark
00:56:11Damien.
00:56:11Damien,
00:56:12who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:14Calling me directly?
00:56:15Learn some manners.
00:56:18Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancee.
00:56:22I'm not.
00:56:23You bastard.
00:56:24Tooie.
00:56:26Mr. Turner?
00:56:27Mr. Turner, please.
00:56:31What is happening?
00:56:39Miss Harper?
00:56:40This is bad.
00:56:42Our partners are flooding us with messages.
00:56:44They're suspending contracts,
00:56:45pulling out a deal.
00:56:46Wait, what is happening?
00:56:48They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise
00:56:51because Julian Clark backed us.
00:56:53Now that he's gone,
00:56:54they don't trust us with their project.
00:56:56Julian.
00:56:58It's Julian again.
00:57:03It's true.
00:57:05They only gave us deals because of Julian.
00:57:09Julian!
00:57:10No, no, no, no.
00:57:11Please, okay?
00:57:12They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off.
00:57:15Think about it, okay?
00:57:16You know what?
00:57:17Just give me some time,
00:57:17and I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:19I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:20I swear.
00:57:21Get away from me!
00:57:23You liar!
00:57:24You fraud, Damien!
00:57:26All those CEOs!
00:57:29They only had you pick up contracts from them,
00:57:31and you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:34I swear.
00:57:35I didn't know that they would.
00:57:39Get out of my sight.
00:57:42Now!
00:58:01I was this close to locking Serena down,
00:58:04stepping into the upper circle.
00:58:05I'm not letting it end like this.
00:58:12Serena, you really thought you were smart.
00:58:16But you're really just pathetic trash.
00:58:21Without Julian, you're nothing.
00:58:33Dad warned you.
00:58:35Grandpa warned you.
00:58:37And you still wouldn't listen.
00:58:42You ignored everything Julian did
00:58:45and worshipped a con artist like Damien.
00:59:00And now look at you.
00:59:04Projects gone.
00:59:06Company collapsing.
00:59:10Idiot.
00:59:12You arrogant.
00:59:13Stupid.
00:59:14Idiot.
00:59:15I'm so stupid.
00:59:23Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:32I'm so sorry.
00:59:34I'm so sorry.
00:59:34Listen up.
00:59:36I know I messed up.
00:59:39Oh!
00:59:44Julian.
00:59:44Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:47I know, I know I messed up.
00:59:50Look.
00:59:51Always damn Julian!
00:59:53Julian!
00:59:56Come back, okay?
00:59:58Please come back.
01:00:04Damn back.
01:00:09You don't have to be scared.
01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business queen.
01:00:14So much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:17Once I lock her down,
01:00:18Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:21Oh, Damien!
01:00:23You sick bastard!
01:00:25You sick bastard!
01:00:29Sweetheart.
01:00:31I really mean it.
01:00:32I love you.
01:00:33You fucking...
01:00:34I'm telling you the truth!
01:00:36I mean it!
01:00:37Okay?
01:00:37I promise.
01:00:39I'll treat you well.
01:00:43You fucking monster.
01:00:45Get off me, please.
01:00:47I'm begging you.
01:00:48Don't!
01:00:49Say yes.
01:00:50What are you doing?
01:00:55You're dead!
01:00:56I'm sorry!
01:00:57Help me!
01:00:58I tried being nice to you.
01:01:00I fucking tried!
01:01:01But you keep fighting me back.
01:01:03Help!
01:01:04Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:05Keep fucking screaming!
01:01:07All right?
01:01:09You're not gonna say no.
01:01:11I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:12Help!
01:01:14Help!
01:01:16Julian!
01:01:17Julian, help!
01:01:19Oh!
01:01:21Get him out of here!
01:01:23Stop!
01:01:24Let me go!
01:01:25Julian, you're always running the fucking lights.
01:01:27This isn't over.
01:01:32Julian, please.
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had that...
01:01:36We are not that close.
01:01:40I was just passing through.
01:01:41I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:01:44You.
01:01:45I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:47Tell them to come to Corral.
01:01:48Yes, sir.
01:01:52Julian, I am sorry.
01:01:54I know.
01:01:55I was wrong.
01:01:56I was wrong.
01:01:57Just...
01:01:58Please, come back.
01:02:00Julian!
01:02:01Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:11Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:22And you refused to listen.
01:02:26And Julian, if Julian doesn't come along, just at the right time.
01:02:31Oh my God.
01:02:32I can't even...
01:02:33I can't even think about it.
01:02:35If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours, one day, you live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please.
01:02:43Stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:46I'll...
01:02:47I'll apologize to Julian and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:55The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:03:00Grandpa.
01:03:02Don't worry.
01:03:04I will apologize properly and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:10That's all we can do.
01:03:13So, John, put out a citywide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:19He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:22We're not letting that go.
01:03:25No, we're not.
01:03:27Understood.
01:03:59Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:06What is this supposed to be?
01:04:08A gift for you.
01:04:10Myself.
01:04:12I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:15Amber group backs you up.
01:04:17No questions asked.
01:04:18But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Not really.
01:04:32Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:35You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:38You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped and any man would have, you know,
01:04:44housed me by now.
01:04:46Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:50Hung up?
01:04:52You're not going to be hung up on Serena.
01:04:53She and I were never romantic.
01:04:55Look, no, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:05:00Things are moving too fast.
01:05:03You gotta think twice.
01:05:04But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:14Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:18Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:19Julian, my uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me
01:05:25permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:27I want you.
01:05:28I love you.
01:05:31Julian, let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:39You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:57Okay.
01:05:59I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No takebacks.
01:06:03No takebacks.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:05Ever.
01:06:05I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:08But can you help me out?
01:06:12Um, my hands are getting wet.
01:06:15So impatient.
01:06:20It's like you said, if I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:32Then be gentle.
01:06:41Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:46Uh, no.
01:06:47Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember them.
01:06:51You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, kind of, you kind of remember that for the rest of
01:06:56your life.
01:06:57Details.
01:06:58Those are just tiny details.
01:07:02You look like big details to me.
01:07:07Julian.
01:07:09Can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:12Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:15Julian, I was wrong.
01:07:16I never should have trusted Damien.
01:07:17I misjudged everything.
01:07:19Please.
01:07:20Just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:24And if you take me back, just tell me what you want.
01:07:27I'll do anything.
01:07:28I'm sorry.
01:07:28I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages.
01:07:43Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:45And yet, you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:49He asked you out 37 times.
01:07:52So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm?
01:07:57Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:04Listen carefully.
01:08:05We are together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:09If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:15Come on.
01:08:16We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:18Let's not be late.
01:08:20Wedding outfits.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:41He's with Nora.
01:08:42Oh, God.
01:08:46Nora.
01:08:47Nora Lawson.
01:08:49She's the CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:52You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian.
01:08:56The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:09:00You don't get another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family a chance, and we blew it.
01:09:07God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:09Please.
01:09:12Ms. Hopper, finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Hopper Enterprises' cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:19If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:24Great.
01:09:25Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:29That was going to lend to us now.
01:09:31How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:32This is my fault, okay?
01:09:35I was blind.
01:09:36Are you proud now?
01:09:39I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:43I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:47And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:51Dad.
01:09:53Grandpa.
01:09:53I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined Harpers Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad.
01:10:01You're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:05So maybe you should go talk to him.
01:10:07And see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:10Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:12Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:14If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:17Lark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:21Yes, they honored our engagement.
01:10:25And that was a mercy.
01:10:26That was a blessing.
01:10:28But you threw it away.
01:10:34Still, for your sake and for your future,
01:10:37and for our future,
01:10:39we'll fight.
01:10:47Serena,
01:10:48when you see Julian's grandfather,
01:10:51your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:55If he forgives you,
01:10:58only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:04For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22Welcome.
01:11:24You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing.
01:11:30They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:34So they're really engaged?
01:11:36Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:40What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:43Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born,
01:11:46and everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married.
01:11:50Oh, oh, I see.
01:11:52You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:56Then please leave.
01:11:58Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:00Oh, oh, oh.
01:12:01Oh, oh, oh.
01:12:02Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:12:05If there's an engagement party,
01:12:07that means Julian's grandfather
01:12:10has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:14And that means we're done.
01:12:17There's no more chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:25All right, everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:30Woo!
01:12:44Julian, are you okay?
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54Oh, it's nothing.
01:12:55Come on, dinner's almost right.
01:13:10Dad, the Harpers.
01:13:13My grandson grew up with everything.
01:13:18For a young one,
01:13:20six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:23it was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown the Harpers more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:43You can't drink this away.
01:13:45Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:48If you don't get up, it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me the fuck alone, okay?
01:13:54Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:58I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:59No, you...
01:14:02All right, I've got to take this.
01:14:04Don't move.
01:14:06I'll be right back,
01:14:06and then I am taking you home.
01:14:17Nora.
01:14:20Okay, Nora.
01:14:22Be honest.
01:14:23You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged,
01:14:27and you're getting married next week?
01:14:30Let's see.
01:14:31You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:34You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:36I've liked Julian for 20 years,
01:14:38and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:41You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:46Yes.
01:14:46They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:50I have to move fast.
01:14:52If they start begging,
01:14:55what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:57But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:15:00There's no real love.
01:15:02Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:05You don't get it.
01:15:07Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:11and it wasn't just because his grandfather would do it.
01:15:13Then why?
01:15:16Because Serena is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:27No way!
01:15:29I'm serious.
01:15:31The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:33That exact time.
01:15:35I mean, with his personality,
01:15:38even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:40he would have stayed there for three days max,
01:15:42and then vanished.
01:15:43He would not stay there
01:15:45and take six months of humiliation
01:15:48if he didn't want it to.
01:15:49That's Julian Clark.
01:15:51So that's why?
01:15:53Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:55I have to get married, fast.
01:15:57I cannot give her a single chance.
01:16:01So that's what it was.
01:16:02Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:05because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me.
01:16:08That means I still have a chance.
01:16:10I still have a chance.
01:16:12This is my last shot.
01:16:14I am not wasting it.
01:16:22Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow.
01:16:46They look perfect together.
01:16:48They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:50The whole fantasy.
01:16:51Oh my God, brilliant.
01:16:54And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:09Wait!
01:17:16Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:19Who is that?
01:17:21Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:22CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:24You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:27and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:30Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:41Julian, I know you like me.
01:17:44You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:17:46humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please.
01:17:58Give me another chance.
01:18:02Our engagement is over.
01:18:04In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:07Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:09Have some dignity.
01:18:10In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:12No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just...
01:18:16I know you hate me because I rejected you 37 times,
01:18:25but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times, 370 times, whatever it did.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:37Julian, what do you want from me?
01:18:39I know you like me, so why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:47Simple question.
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:53I...
01:18:54Exactly.
01:18:54You don't.
01:18:56You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:58You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:19:01What you want is not a chance, but a tool.
01:19:04You want me back so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:09No, that...
01:19:11That's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:16Please, listen.
01:19:17Enough.
01:19:17Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise,
01:19:19do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:23Let me ask you this.
01:19:25If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:27if your value kept climbing,
01:19:29would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34No.
01:19:35No, you wouldn't.
01:19:36You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:37You'd be celebrating.
01:19:39You'd say that you earned the business queen a crown.
01:19:41You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:44You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:46Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:49No.
01:19:50No, Julian.
01:19:52That's not me.
01:19:54Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:56You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:57But on my wedding day,
01:19:59you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:20:01Why?
01:20:02Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:04Your donor.
01:20:05Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:08But the moment I stop being useful,
01:20:10you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:13No.
01:20:15No, Julian.
01:20:16That is not true.
01:20:18The night that you saved me from Damien,
01:20:21I...
01:20:23I felt something for you.
01:20:25I did.
01:20:26Stop.
01:20:26Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:29You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:31You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:32You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:35You know, I'll admit,
01:20:36when I met you,
01:20:38you were exactly my type.
01:20:41But once I got to know you,
01:20:43once I realized what you really are,
01:20:45all I felt was disgust.
01:20:49But Nora...
01:20:52she has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:57When I was sick,
01:20:58she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:21:01When I was at my lowest,
01:21:02she pulled me back up.
01:21:04Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement,
01:21:06and she still supported me.
01:21:10She still took hits from me.
01:21:15So, let me ask you.
01:21:18Why would I give up all that for you?
01:21:22What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:33Don't, don't.
01:21:34I'm begging you.
01:21:35Just please let me explain.
01:21:37Please.
01:21:38Please, let me, please stop.
01:21:39Let me go.
01:21:40Julian, please don't do it.
01:21:42Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:44I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:46Turns out,
01:21:47she just realized,
01:21:48without Julian,
01:21:49she can't stay on top.
01:21:50She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:53Totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:26Mr. Clark!
01:22:43I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:45Harper Enterprise,
01:22:46effective today,
01:22:47has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:49So,
01:22:51we're all being terminated.
01:22:52Are you-
01:22:52What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark,
01:22:55that's too much.
01:22:56I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:59You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years, wow.
01:23:03Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years to make this company clean,
01:23:06and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know,
01:23:10I've been watching you guys for about six months now,
01:23:13and I've seen how you all work.
01:23:16Bribes,
01:23:18embezzlement,
01:23:20kickbacks,
01:23:22fraud.
01:23:24I think you want to be able to smile.
01:23:26So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms,
01:23:30and once you sign them,
01:23:33hand over your badges,
01:23:34or you're going to rob him.
01:23:37This.
01:23:38This is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied, Mal?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:58Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:59He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:08Julian.
01:24:10If I didn't treat you the way I did,
01:24:14would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian, why don't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:27I spent my whole life climbing upwards,
01:24:29and now I'm stuck at the bottom,
01:24:30hunted by cops.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian, what's yours?
01:24:36Julian?
01:24:40Let me go.
01:24:41Fuck you, let me go.
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:46Yo, take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:50Fuck the coward.
01:24:51You're a fucking coward!
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's money.
01:24:54No, no, fight me.
01:24:55101.
01:24:55101, let the guards go.
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts, do you?
01:25:03Hey, Julian.
01:25:04What was that?
01:25:06Just taking out the trash.
01:25:09Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong.
01:25:21Julian, I was wrong.
