00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour
00:00:09alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in ARC'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.
00:00:32We can't hold the line. We're about to become the laughingstock of Wall Street.
00:00:36No, no, we're not finished. We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julian, we need you. Again. Shit.
00:00:52We need your help. 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?
00:01:27Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:30Julian, 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.
00:01:40Chairman's orders.
00:01:41Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you.
00:01:46Watch your back.
00:01:47I'm looking, let me know, the address is my opinion.
00:01:51I won't be the only one. I'm going to be the only one.
00:01:58I'll meet you next week.
00:01:58And I'll see you next week.
00:02:10I'll see you next week.
00:02:14Today, Damien successfully neutralized the short attack against Harper
00:02:19and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:21Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:29Since when does Damien know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:32He must have stole this win from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back, and Damien used his pull of Serena to get him fired.
00:02:48Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire,
00:02:54the least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:55Damien.
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:00Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:11Julian, the company just went through a crisis, and you're up here gaming?
00:03:16Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:21This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:25Wait, I'm sorry, everyone.
00:03:27I forgot.
00:03:29You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:31My strategy is you probably couldn't comprehend them,
00:03:33let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:39Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution,
00:03:42let's start with a question.
00:03:44Which funds were behind the short attack?
00:03:46And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter.
00:03:51What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55Alright, fine.
00:03:56Next question.
00:03:57Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:03:59And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well, uh, well, um...
00:04:07Well, I, uh, well...
00:04:10Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:11Alright.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room,
00:04:15the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight,
00:04:17or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:25You are nothing but a gloryhound
00:04:28who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees the video.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:44You know what, Clark?
00:04:46You're fucking fired!
00:04:47Now 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.
00:05:08I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:11Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap
00:05:18and raised it to $3 trillion.
00:05:21You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, uh, 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.
00:05:38Our families go way back.
00:05:40Your 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.
00:05:52You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:55Go work with Serena.
00:05:57And 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?
00:06:09Okay.
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 pass, Kate.
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, please, 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.
00:06:52I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:57I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:06:59And for what?
00:07:01So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:05It's time to come home.
00:07:12You 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 no!
00:07:26Or I'm going to call security.
00:07:27I'm going to drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:31Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:36Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:39You will leave.
00:07:40Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:43Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it.
00:07:47And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:49You know what, Serena?
00:07:51Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:58You don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place is because of your
00:08:04dusty 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-spun, entitled piece-of-shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:16So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking...
00:08:20More money!
00:08:28You broke my teeth.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:32A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your course sheet.
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.
00:08:49Effective immediately.
00:08:51Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:53Serena, he broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday, he has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:59Either pay up, or I swear you're going to rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07I'll pay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What?
00:09:10One hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:15It'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.
00:09:24You break it, you buy it.
00:09:27That's the rule.
00:09:28Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:36Well, you'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.
00:09:55That'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.
00:10:33But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:37We are done.
00:10:39You sure?
00:10:40Whoa, whoa, you heard that, Julian?
00:10:42Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I throw you...
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 going to wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:03Mr. Brooks?
00:11:07That's David Brooks, president of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference?
00:11:11Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:14I 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.
00:11:42Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To 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 at your disposal.
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.
00:12:44We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:47Yes, 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,
00:13:04or 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.
00:13:13In full.
00:13:13Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:21You arrogant.
00:13:22Son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:28I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:38The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:40But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:42That useless piece of junk, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:45Oh.
00:13:46I don't know.
00:13:46Maybe about...
00:13:48A hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:55Have you lost your mind?
00:13:58A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:01Julian.
00:14:02The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What's your committing is extortion?
00:14:07That's illegal!
00:14:08So, 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 kisser.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:22What?
00:14:22A stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:26A hundred million dollars?
00:14:27I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:29Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:32But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:34What is it made of gold?
00:14:35Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:38You know what?
00:14:39You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:48Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Bill Sullivan.
00:14:52SVP for stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the $300 million partner chip, dude?
00:14:56$300 million?
00:14:57That's huge for us, but...
00:14:59Pocket change for stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:05Uh, 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.
00:15:16We were concerned for your safety and catered 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 all right?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:28It just took a fall.
00:15:31God, this damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be $30 million.
00:15:42$30 million?
00:15:43No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible.
00:15:47There's no way.
00:15:48Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50I'll open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop with stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:56You better pray that those data partitions are intact or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I've just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:04It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:07I mean, with our declarations, this is at least $70 million.
00:16:13That's $70 million?
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:24Here.
00:16:25Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:29See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around a $100 million laptop?
00:16:46Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that 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.
00:17:04I don't fly across the city a scam and nobody like you.
00:17:08Listen, I'm so...
00:17:09Miss Harper,
00:17:10this is the employee you hire.
00:17:12He's a fool.
00:17:13And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:16Oh, by the way,
00:17:17our 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 stressy.
00:17:26He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it.
00:17:28You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:31You, if you dispute evaluations,
00:17:34we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:38I'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 to fight this.
00:17:53He's done for.
00:17:55So, man, let's help.
00:17:57Please.
00:18:02Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:07Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:11I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:13You need to discuss details with 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'll do.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan,
00:18:30are our partners...
00:18:31Ms. Harper,
00:18:32get your house in order first.
00:18:34Stellar has standards.
00:18:35We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:38That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40That's funny.
00:18:42Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:43A hundred million on the line
00:18:45and you swoop in the 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 approve
00:18:54is none of your goddamn business!
00:18:56We don't need someone like you
00:18:58worrying about it!
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian,
00:19:01I give you my word.
00:19:02The full amount
00:19:03will be paid within three days,
00:19:04but 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.
00:19:13Did you hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know,
00:19:15I'll admit it.
00:19:15Yeah, you got the money,
00:19:16but it's not about what 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 time
00:19:36to call your grandfather.
00:19:37He could definitely settle.
00:19:39all of this.
00:19:42Stop.
00:19:43Stop!
00:19:48This boy toy
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.
00:19:58Remind me,
00:19:59which one of us
00:20:00is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:13Get 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.
00:20:20I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:23Security,
00:20:24remove him.
00:20:28Julian,
00:20:28please,
00:20:29don't make us get physical.
00:20:30I'm the one
00:20:31Chairman Harper
00:20:31personally brought in.
00:20:32You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:35Chairman Harper
00:20:36brought you in?
00:20:37Julian,
00:20:38have you lost
00:20:38your fucking mind?
00:20:40What do you think you want?
00:20:41You think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian,
00:20:44I've already given you
00:20:45more courtesy
00:20:45than you deserve.
00:20:46The more you cling on like this,
00:20:48the more disgusting
00:20:49you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55It looks like I won't need
00:20:56that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth,
00:20:58huh?
00:20:58Move.
00:20:59Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:05What the hell
00:21:06is going on in here?
00:21:09Stand down!
00:21:10All of you!
00:21:11You!
00:21:12Out of here!
00:21:12Now!
00:21:13Dad?
00:21:14Grandpa?
00:21:14What are you doing here?
00:21:21Julian.
00:21:22I've been filled in
00:21:23on everything
00:21:24that's gone on today.
00:21:26I know that you've been
00:21:27wronged
00:21:27by this guy.
00:21:31Please accept
00:21:32my apology
00:21:32for everything.
00:21:34Chairman Harper
00:21:35apologizing
00:21:37to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa,
00:21:39what are you doing?
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 possibly...
00:21:47Shut up!
00:21:56how dare you
00:21:57disrespect Julian?
00:21:58Dad, I don't care
00:21:59what kind of background
00:21:59Julian has.
00:22:00You can't just hit people.
00:22:01I wish we hit him more.
00:22:03Serena,
00:22:05do you even have any idea
00:22:06who Julian Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't tell you
00:22:09everything because of your ego.
00:22:10And I didn't want to
00:22:11hurt your feelings.
00:22:12You were going to
00:22:13announce everything
00:22:14once the engagement
00:22:14was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:17Serena,
00:22:18you've been blind.
00:22:20Julian is...
00:22:21Thomas,
00:22:22you can't force
00:22:22something that isn't there.
00:22:23No real feelings,
00:22:25no need to go forward
00:22:26with the engagement.
00:22:27Julian,
00:22:28please,
00:22:28understand,
00:22:29all of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's
00:22:32happened here today
00:22:33is the fault
00:22:34of the Harperfin.
00:22:35give me a chance
00:22:36to make it right.
00:22:41Apologize to Julian,
00:22:43now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care
00:22:45who you are, Julian.
00:22:47To me,
00:22:47you're still just
00:22:48a spoiled brat
00:22:49who thinks of himself
00:22:50as some sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality,
00:22:54all you know
00:22:55is playing video games.
00:22:57I see right through you
00:22:59and I will not
00:23:00apologize to you!
00:23:02Serena,
00:23:02enough!
00:23:03Julian,
00:23:04she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Save it.
00:23:08Serena can't manage
00:23:09an apology herself,
00:23:11then I have no reason
00:23:12to protect this company
00:23:13anymore.
00:23:15Issue my order.
00:23:17Suspend all support
00:23:18for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:20Cease every protective measure
00:23:21effective immediately.
00:23:22Julian,
00:23:23please,
00:23:24don't!
00:23:24Without you,
00:23:25this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you
00:23:36could have just
00:23:37pulled out orders.
00:23:37What do you mean,
00:23:38hostile takeover?
00:23:40All of our investors
00:23:40pulled out.
00:23:41How can that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise
00:23:47stock plunges
00:23:4830% in minutes,
00:23:50wiping out billions
00:23:50in market value.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52My entire division
00:23:53just stopped.
00:23:54We can't operate
00:23:55like this.
00:23:55A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's
00:23:58many allies
00:23:59withdraw their investments
00:24:00in an instant,
00:24:01leaving the group
00:24:02facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be
00:24:04all these months
00:24:05the company's been
00:24:06supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:10Why did Harper Enterprise's
00:24:11suddenly lose power?
00:24:13What caused them
00:24:14to lose their backing?
00:24:16How is that possible?
00:24:19Are you attacking
00:24:20the company?
00:24:20No matter who
00:24:21is behind this,
00:24:22I, Serena,
00:24:23will never
00:24:23bow down to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise
00:24:28will not yield
00:24:29to any market attacks.
00:24:30Do whatever it takes
00:24:31to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:33Miss Harper,
00:24:33this isn't a race.
00:24:34Our major partners
00:24:35are terminating
00:24:36their contracts
00:24:37and our own liquidity
00:24:38can't cover the gas.
00:24:40If this continues,
00:24:41the stocks
00:24:41will crash
00:24:42straight through the floor.
00:24:44What did you say?
00:24:46Dammit!
00:24:47How could that trash
00:24:48have such kind of power?
00:24:50Why him?
00:24:51I won't accept this!
00:24:52I won't!
00:24:52Serena,
00:24:53how can you stand there
00:24:54and watch Harper Enterprises
00:24:56burn to the ground
00:24:57around your feet?
00:24:59Apologize to Julian!
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena,
00:25:06apologize.
00:25:08Serena.
00:25:19Serena,
00:25:19Serena,
00:25:19do not apologize.
00:25:21Harper Enterprises
00:25:21is worth hundreds
00:25:22of billions of dollars.
00:25:24You really think
00:25:24we can't survive
00:25:25without him?
00:25:26Let's just get through
00:25:27this crisis
00:25:27and I swear
00:25:28I will make him pay
00:25:29for everything
00:25:30that he has done to you!
00:25:32Oh,
00:25:32fucking no!
00:25:33Oh!
00:25:35It's your fucking fault!
00:25:36You apologize to Julian
00:25:38right now!
00:25:39Get on your name!
00:25:40Dad!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:44Dad,
00:25:44stop!
00:25:45Damien has only ever
00:25:46stood up for me!
00:25:47He is the only one
00:25:48who actually cares about me
00:25:49and I won't let you
00:25:49treat him like this!
00:25:50Stay out of the way.
00:25:51No!
00:25:53You really gonna go to war
00:25:54with Julian
00:25:55over this snake?
00:25:57Do you even have
00:25:58any idea
00:25:58who he really is?
00:26:00Whoever he is,
00:26:00it doesn't give him
00:26:01the right to just
00:26:02bully people like this!
00:26:03I cannot stand
00:26:05bullies who throw
00:26:06their weight around
00:26:07and today that is
00:26:08exactly what you
00:26:09look like to me!
00:26:10Serena,
00:26:10that is enough!
00:26:11Wait,
00:26:12you hate bullies
00:26:12who throw their
00:26:13weight around,
00:26:13right?
00:26:14What about this guy?
00:26:15What about him?
00:26:16He hides behind
00:26:17your name to steal
00:26:18other people's work.
00:26:19He throws tea on me
00:26:20in this very room.
00:26:21He squeezes a million
00:26:22dollars out of me
00:26:23just for a
00:26:23hundred thousand dollar
00:26:24wash!
00:26:24Don't you think
00:26:25that's bullying?
00:26:26Oh,
00:26:27I...
00:26:28But you hate
00:26:29bullies,
00:26:30right?
00:26:32Hey,
00:26:32you're no saint.
00:26:34You're just biased.
00:26:36You know,
00:26:36I've been engaged
00:26:37to you for the
00:26:37past six months.
00:26:39I have asked you
00:26:39out 37 times.
00:26:42Yeah,
00:26:42because I thought
00:26:43we should at least
00:26:43get to know each
00:26:44other.
00:26:44Every time
00:26:45I have asked you
00:26:46out,
00:26:46you said,
00:26:47I'm too busy
00:26:47with work.
00:26:49But that wasn't
00:26:49the truth.
00:26:50The truth is,
00:26:51is that you
00:26:52were too busy
00:26:52dating this
00:26:53sycophant.
00:26:54Listen to him
00:26:54sing your praises,
00:26:55right?
00:26:58Who's that?
00:26:59Oh,
00:26:59let me guess.
00:27:00Julian's
00:27:01still asking
00:27:01him out?
00:27:05Just
00:27:05ignore him.
00:27:07Is he still
00:27:07your fiancรฉ?
00:27:09Is it okay
00:27:10you still
00:27:10keep blowing
00:27:11him off?
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
00:27:17around him?
00:27:20So what
00:27:21if I did?
00:27:22Who I choose
00:27:23to hang out
00:27:24with is my
00:27:24own choice.
00:27:25We're engaged,
00:27:27not married.
00:27:28I can see
00:27:28whoever I want.
00:27:30Serena,
00:27:31shut up.
00:27:31No,
00:27:32I am not
00:27:33done.
00:27:34Damien
00:27:34has worked
00:27:35himself to
00:27:36the bone.
00:27:37He is driven
00:27:38and disciplined
00:27:39and when Harper
00:27:40first went public,
00:27:41he was a key
00:27:42reason that we
00:27:42made it.
00:27:43If you had
00:27:44even half his
00:27:45talent,
00:27:45Julian,
00:27:46maybe I would
00:27:47have said yes
00:27:47to you once.
00:27:49But you don't.
00:27:53Damien was a key
00:27:54reason you made it.
00:27:55That's your story,
00:27:56right?
00:27:56What is so funny?
00:27:57I mean,
00:27:58I'm laughing at
00:27:59just how foolish
00:28:00you are.
00:28:01Do you know
00:28:02why for the past
00:28:03six months
00:28:03all of your
00:28:04proposals have
00:28:05sailed through?
00:28:06Why every deal
00:28:07that you like
00:28:08happened to have
00:28:08closed?
00:28:09Why every time
00:28:10that you wanted
00:28:10a loan,
00:28:11the banks rolled
00:28:12out a special
00:28:12fast track for you?
00:28:13Because Damien
00:28:14is brilliant.
00:28:15Because he has
00:28:16cleared every
00:28:17obstacle in my way.
00:28:18Damien?
00:28:19Brilliant?
00:28:20That was
00:28:21Julian.
00:28:23Julian is the
00:28:24one who
00:28:24quietly has held
00:28:25this entire thing
00:28:26together.
00:28:27Serena.
00:28:28No,
00:28:29that is impossible.
00:28:31I don't believe it.
00:28:41Hey.
00:28:42Hi's up,
00:28:43Serena.
00:28:43In the past
00:28:44six months,
00:28:45I've called in
00:28:4547 separate
00:28:46connections and
00:28:47cleared a path
00:28:48for you.
00:28:48Oh,
00:28:48I put Harper
00:28:49Enterprise on
00:28:49the exchange.
00:28:50And you know,
00:28:51I made you
00:28:51Wall Street's
00:28:52business queen.
00:28:53That's Iron Gate,
00:28:54North Bridge,
00:28:55and Eva Silverline.
00:28:56Those are all
00:28:57the top 50
00:28:57global giants.
00:28:58They've all been
00:28:59backing us
00:28:59behind the scenes?
00:29:00No wonder
00:29:01every project
00:29:02went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian's the
00:29:04one with this
00:29:04kind of network.
00:29:05Damien's got
00:29:06some nerve
00:29:06stealing credit
00:29:07for something
00:29:07like this.
00:29:08That's a
00:29:09death wish.
00:29:12No, no, no.
00:29:13It's not true,
00:29:14huh?
00:29:15Harper Enterprise
00:29:15is what it is
00:29:16because of me
00:29:17and my hard work
00:29:18and my connections.
00:29:19Oh,
00:29:20you arrogant fool.
00:29:22Did you think
00:29:23you could step in
00:29:24here and steal credit
00:29:24from everything?
00:29:32All right,
00:29:32that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the
00:29:35all clear for my
00:29:35grandfather.
00:29:36I can go home.
00:29:37So as of right now,
00:29:39our engagement
00:29:39is terminated.
00:29:41Julian,
00:29:42all of this
00:29:42has been our fault.
00:29:43But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a
00:29:47fiance who uses
00:29:48his family background
00:29:49to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections
00:29:54and my network,
00:29:55Harper Enterprise's
00:29:56stock is going
00:29:56to keep falling.
00:29:57It's going to go
00:29:58right back to where
00:29:59it was six months ago.
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian.
00:30:07Julian.
00:30:07That's it.
00:30:08Julian.
00:30:11Serena.
00:30:13You silly,
00:30:14foolish,
00:30:15foolish girl.
00:30:16Grandpa,
00:30:17I have never
00:30:18been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him,
00:30:20I will lead
00:30:21Harper Enterprise
00:30:21back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:23Mr. Harper,
00:30:24Chairman Harper,
00:30:25I'm going to stand
00:30:26by Serena's side
00:30:26and I'm going to
00:30:27give her everything
00:30:28that I've got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to
00:30:31beat the crap
00:30:31out of you
00:30:31once and for all.
00:30:33Dad,
00:30:34that is enough.
00:30:36Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you
00:30:39have your issues
00:30:39with Damien,
00:30:40but I believe
00:30:41he will prove
00:30:42himself to you
00:30:43and so will I.
00:30:46I will show
00:30:47everyone here
00:30:48that what Harper
00:30:49achieved over the
00:30:49past six months
00:30:50was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing
00:30:52to do with Julian.
00:30:54This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena,
00:30:57wait up.
00:30:59You.
00:30:59God,
00:31:00tell me what
00:31:01to do
00:31:01with this
00:31:02reckless
00:31:03granddaughter.
00:31:08Serena,
00:31:08Serena.
00:31:09Don't even
00:31:10worry about that.
00:31:11I know our
00:31:11enterprise took
00:31:12a huge hit today,
00:31:12but as long as
00:31:13we lock down
00:31:13Amber Group's
00:31:14Crescent Lake
00:31:14project,
00:31:15change the game,
00:31:16and everyone
00:31:17will still think
00:31:18that we're in control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3 billion
00:31:21Crescent Lake
00:31:22project.
00:31:23If we can win
00:31:24that contract,
00:31:25we can wipe
00:31:26all the problems
00:31:27we've been facing.
00:31:29Damien,
00:31:29you've secured
00:31:30several of
00:31:31Amber Group's
00:31:31projects before,
00:31:33and I'm going to
00:31:33put this one
00:31:34in your hands,
00:31:34too.
00:31:35It's not going
00:31:36to be a problem,
00:31:36right?
00:31:36No, no,
00:31:37absolutely.
00:31:37You can't have me.
00:31:39Amber Group's
00:31:39deputy VP
00:31:40of projects,
00:31:41and he trusts me
00:31:42clearly.
00:31:44He's as good as
00:31:44ours.
00:31:52Get the Crescent
00:31:53Lake contract
00:31:54ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:55Once the Harper
00:31:56team arrives,
00:31:57we hand it
00:31:57straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson,
00:31:59we just got an
00:32:00update.
00:32:00Julian Clark
00:32:01has been kicked
00:32:01out of Harper
00:32:02Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement
00:32:03is off.
00:32:04Serena fired
00:32:05him and ended
00:32:05it.
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,
00:32:14and then Serena
00:32:15personally pushed
00:32:16Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really
00:32:18thinks she got
00:32:18where she is
00:32:19because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your
00:32:21little lap dog?
00:32:22Then do we still
00:32:24hand the Crescent
00:32:25Lake project
00:32:25over to Harper
00:32:26Enterprise?
00:32:27Without Julian,
00:32:28Harper Enterprise
00:32:28really thinks
00:32:29it's worthy
00:32:30of Crescent
00:32:30Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to
00:32:33public video.
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?
00:33:05Damien,
00:33:06what does this
00:33:07mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks,
00:33:08why don't you do
00:33:09yourself a favor
00:33:09and take a closer
00:33:10look?
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 Crescent
00:33:20Lake.
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 public
00:33:30bidding on paper,
00:33:31but as long as I'm here,
00:33:34you've got nothing
00:33:35to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:41Miss Larson
00:33:42usually hands
00:33:43Harper Enterprises
00:33:44whatever they want
00:33:45anyway.
00:33:46Well,
00:33:48thank you very much,
00:33:49Mr. Brooks.
00:34:16well,
00:34:19Prince,
00:34:19Jillian.
00:34:22Parts Arena
00:34:22kicked 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,
00:34:30I 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.
00:34:36Not to.
00:34:40I'm here to steal you.
00:34:42You see,
00:34:43since your engagement
00:34:46is off,
00:34:47I was thinking,
00:34:49how about you
00:34:50consider me, huh?
00:34:54Guys like us,
00:34:55we don't get
00:34:56to escape alliances.
00:34:57Our families
00:34:58will bear us
00:35:00off either way,
00:35:00so why pick a stranger
00:35:03when there's someone
00:35:05who actually knows you.
00:35:08You see?
00:35:09Childhood friends,
00:35:11same circles,
00:35:1415 years of school.
00:35:16We match.
00:35:18You know?
00:35:19We fit.
00:35:21Hang on.
00:35:23Nora,
00:35:23are you saying this
00:35:24because you're drunk
00:35:25or do you...
00:35:26Shhh.
00:35:34I'm not drunk.
00:35:35Okay?
00:35:36You don't have to
00:35:37answer me tonight,
00:35:38just think about it.
00:35:40Hmm?
00:35:44What?
00:35:54Jesus.
00:36:11I told you I'm not drunk
00:36:13This one should come off
00:36:16Oh shit
00:36:17I'm drunk
00:36:20This one should come off
00:36:21Oh shit
00:36:22I'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
00:37:02You're finished
00:37:03Aren't you great about tomorrow's headlines
00:37:05And our group's CEO
00:37:06Get caught in the scandal at a pool party
00:37:09Remember, it was tomorrow's company's visibility
00:37:12But I'm not letting the pictures of my breast go through
00:37:15Okay
00:37:16Okay
00:37:20But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night
00:37:26I think my heart's gonna skip on its chest
00:37:41And suffer
00:37:42Okay
00:37:44If you push me
00:37:45I will
00:37:46Toss you into a little ice crusher
00:37:52Please
00:37:53Just
00:37:55Walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:11Speak of the devil
00:38:12Of all good times
00:38:19Now this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO
00:38:21You know what I lost?
00:38:23Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into
00:38:27Oh, wait
00:38:30Oh, well, well
00:38:32I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time
00:38:36Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all
00:38:39Can I help you with something?
00:38:41Seriously?
00:38:42This woman's even prettier than Serena
00:38:44How does a loser like Julia always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved
00:38:49Whatever 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 vaulting her
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:02Now I hear your company's looking to bid on 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
00:39:17Alright, and I'm gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena
00:39:19You, you're just gonna fucking lose like 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
00:39:42So, man, you don't even know anyone that cheap
00:39:46Alright, 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 lost in herself
00:39:53And if we do
00:39:55I'll make sure we're really good at brush
00:40:08Thank you
00:40:09Thank you
00:40:14So, that pretty boy Damien actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena
00:40:19Tonight we're gonna 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
00:40:28Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:30But
00:40:31If you like glasses
00:40:33I can do
00:40:34Okay
00:40:35You can do glasses?
00:40:37Yeah
00:40:37Miss Lawson
00:40:38It's an honor to see you here today
00:40:40Thank you
00:40:46I'll let you get to it
00:41:07Sally
00:41:08Julian
00:41:11I'm surprised you showed up
00:41:13You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:17You know what?
00:41:18Mason Brooks, Amber Group's deputy VP of projects
00:41:22Already agreed to award the contract to Harper Enterprise
00:41:26You can't win
00:41:31I hear the Crescent Lake project is basically yours
00:41:34Congratulations
00:41:34Thank you
00:41:36Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street
00:41:38And with Damien backing you up, it's unstoppable
00:41:41When the two of you take off, don't forget the little guys like us
00:41:44Of course
00:41:44You know, we're gonna take care of you guys
00:41:46Thank you so much
00:41:48Thank you
00:41:54See that, Julian?
00:41:56Everybody already knows that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise
00:41:59I suggest you walk out of here before you keep embarrassing yourself
00:42:02It's funny
00:42:03You see, my Clark Group has deeper capital, better tech
00:42:07And a stronger global record than Harper Enterprise
00:42:10So I'm just curious
00:42:11Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:14He recognizes Damien's talent
00:42:15Of course
00:42:21I need to take this
00:42:29Why, Julian?
00:42:33What century are you living in?
00:42:35You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:38Then what does?
00:42:40Ain'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 that's gonna be that?
00:42:51You 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 wanna understand the rules up top there, sweetheart
00:43:01But hey, you're a very lovely
00:43:04Beautiful escort
00:43:05Why don't you do us all a favor
00:43:06Get up on that stage
00:43:07And give us a nice little poll show
00:43:09Hey
00:43:10Hey
00:43:10I'm gonna tell you
00:43:11You wanna know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:15Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune
00:43:21Capital technology
00:43:24It's useless
00:43:25Fucking trash
00:43:28Mason Brooks
00:43:29You've got a lot in there
00:43:30He'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's CEO or something?
00:43:41Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:43It's adorable, no?
00:43:44Amber Group's anti-corruption code did
00:43:47Anti-anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:50No
00:44:01What are you gonna report, Mr. Brooks?
00:44:03Hmm?
00:44:07You hit me
00:44:09You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:12I'm gonna have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call
00:44:17There he is, Mr. Brooks is here
00:44:18He'll be here finished
00:44:22Mr. Brooks
00:44:22I think you need my friend
00:44:24There's a woman here
00:44:25Says she's gonna report to you
00:44:27Come on, please, teach her a lesson
00:44:28Oh, report me?
00:44:30Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:31This woman right here
00:44:35Miss
00:44:36Lawson?
00:44:37She's even quoted the anti-corruption code
00:44:39Like she's somebody
00:44:39Like how fucking ridiculous
00:44:41What?
00:44:43What?
00:44:44This
00:44:44This
00:44:45This
00:44:46Can't be
00:44:49Go ahead
00:44:50Laugh
00:44:51Laugh some more
00:44:52Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:54You'll say anything out loud
00:44:55Mr. 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 gonna believe this
00:45:00Why are you hitting me?
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth
00:45:04When did I ever take your money?
00:45:07I never took one cent
00:45:08Say it again
00:45:10And I'll bury you
00:45:11Idiot
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15This Lawson
00:45:16This
00:45:16This Damien
00:45:17He's a lunatic
00:45:18He's making things up
00:45:19Don't listen to him
00:45:20I swear
00:45:21I never took one dollar from him
00:45:24Not once
00:45:27Ms. Lawson
00:45:30No, no, wait
00:45:31You're Nora Lawson
00:45:32Amber's group CEO
00:45:34How is that possible?
00:45:36How is that fucking
00:45:36Mr. Brooks?
00:45:37Hello
00:45:38I am Serena Harper
00:45:39Thank you so much for awarding
00:45:41The Crescent Lake Project
00:45:42To Harper Enterprise
00:45:43We promise we won't let you down
00:45:48Stop
00:45:48Shut 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
00:46:00I can't believe a word they say
00:46:03Ms. Lawson?
00:46:05Ms. Lawson?
00:46:07She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out
00:46:16You can leave now
00:46:18Ms. Lawson, I am so sorry
00:46:22Damien
00:46:23Didn't know who you were
00:46:25So he thought that you and Julian
00:46:27Were being
00:46:28Um
00:46:28Inappropriate
00:46:29Um
00:46:30But I'll make him apologize
00:46:31Right now
00:46:33He is blunt
00:46:34Yes
00:46:34But
00:46:35His ability
00:46:36Is
00:46:37Exceptional
00:46:38Please
00:46:39Give Harper Enterprise the contract
00:46:41And
00:46:42I promise
00:46:43We will deliver results
00:46:44That satisfy you
00:46:45Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course
00:46:50If not
00:46:51Why would Mason Brooks
00:46:52Have handed him
00:46:52So many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out
00:47:02Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh
00:47:06Shit
00:47:07I can't let her find out
00:47:08I secured every project
00:47:10Right
00:47:10So
00:47:11She's upset
00:47:12Because I mistook her
00:47:12For a whore
00:47:13So
00:47:13She wants revenge
00:47:15So
00:47:15So
00:47:16She's going to embarrass
00:47:16Harper Enterprise
00:47:17In front of everyone
00:47:17So
00:47:18What we need to do
00:47:18Is
00:47:18We need to get out of here now
00:47:19Let's go
00:47:20Go
00:47:21If
00:47:22We don't win Crescent Lake
00:47:23Harper Enterprise
00:47:24Is finished
00:47:26Even if Miss Lawson
00:47:27Is trying to punish us
00:47:28We still have to earn her forgiveness
00:47:29Serena please
00:47:30Okay
00:47:30I'm sorry
00:47:31Here we go now
00:47:33Alright
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects
00:47:35The biggest ones
00:47:35But we need to go
00:47:36Now
00:47:36Come on
00:47:37What is wrong with you
00:47:38Today
00:47:39Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:54I
00:47:54You want to understand the rules on top there
00:47:56Sweetie White
00:47:58Technology Capital
00:48:00Useless fucking trash
00:48:01What?
00:48:03Shit
00:48:03She actually recorded it?
00:48:05And escort
00:48:06So why don't you do us all a nice little favor
00:48:08Get up on that stage
00:48:09You should give us a nice little poll show
00:48:13Who 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
00:48:28They were bought
00:48:31That's not true
00:48:32All of that's a lie
00:48:33Just don't
00:48:34Don't believe it
00:48:35Just turn it off
00:48:36Turn it off right now
00:48:37Stop him
00:48:39Let go of me
00:48:42Damien
00:48:42You did this behind my back
00:48:44This is your talent
00:48:45Your ability
00:48:47Master
00:48:47I mean please just
00:48:48Mr. Brooks
00:48:50What a fucking routine
00:48:52Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think
00:48:55You're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:56Amber
00:48:58Turn it off
00:48:59It's okay
00:49:00Okay
00:49:01Miss Lawson
00:49:01Please just turn it off
00:49:02Just
00:49:03Please stop it
00:49:04Please
00:49:04Please
00:49:06Bribery is one thing
00:49:07But mistaking Miss Lawson
00:49:09For an escort
00:49:10A whore
00:49:12He's fucking blind
00:49:13The best part
00:49:14He confessed
00:49:15Right in front of her
00:49:16That Mason Brooks took money
00:49:18Genius
00:49:19And Serena trusted him
00:49:20To be her assistant
00:49:21I mean what does that say
00:49:23About her judgment
00:49:23Damien
00:49:24You have disappointed me
00:49:27Beyond words
00:49:28Serena I did it
00:49:29Because I cared about you
00:49:30Because I care about Harper Enterprise
00:49:32Please I'm
00:49:32Tell you the truth
00:49:34Enough
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough
00:49:37Mason Brooks
00:49:38You're fired
00:49:39Effective immediately
00:49:42I'm done
00:49:44The Crescent Lake project
00:49:47Harper Enterprise is disqualified
00:49:49Every single project
00:49:52Amber Group has done together
00:49:53With them will be suspended
00:49:54The projects will be back
00:49:56For competitive bidding
00:49:59No, no
00:50:00You 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
00:50:07And why am the person
00:50:09Who hired Trash
00:50:10And called it Talent
00:50:12Real tale
00:50:20Pathetic
00:50:25Serena
00:50:28Please you gotta let me explain
00:50:31Miss Lawson, wait
00:50:32Serena
00:50:42I just avenged you
00:50:43In front of a lot of people
00:50:45Asking for our dinner
00:50:46Isn'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
00:51:01To bribe anyone
00:51:02And I
00:51:02I apologize
00:51:03On his behalf
00:51:04Just
00:51:05Please
00:51:06Give Harper Enterprise
00:51:08Another chance
00:51:09I
00:51:10I will meet the highest standards
00:51:12I will deliver a perfect result
00:51:13On every project
00:51:15Perfect result?
00:51:17And what exactly
00:51:18Guarantees that?
00:51:20Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:22Miss Lawson
00:51:23Damien
00:51:25Damien made a mistake
00:51:26But his ability
00:51:28Is exceptional
00:51:30For six months
00:51:31He managed every Harper Enterprise project
00:51:34Flawlessly
00:51:34No errors
00:51:35No delays
00:51:36If you don't pull this contract
00:51:38I guarantee
00:51:39He will make sure
00:51:40You see his value
00:51:45Managed flawlessly
00:51:46He's not the only empty suit here
00:51:49You're too
00:51:51Miss Lawson
00:51:52You are crossing a line
00:51:56I understand that
00:51:57You and Julian are close
00:51:59And you want to get back at me for him
00:52:01But humiliating someone like this
00:52:03Isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:04You really think
00:52:06I froze our cooperation
00:52:07Because Damien
00:52:08Right Mason?
00:52:10Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:12For six months
00:52:14Harper Enterprise
00:52:15Got everything it wanted
00:52:17From Ember Group
00:52:18For one reason
00:52:20Julian Clark
00:52:23Damien
00:52:24Has nothing
00:52:25To do with that
00:52:26He was just a messenger boy
00:52:28Who picked up the contracts
00:52:29What?
00:52:31When Julian was there
00:52:32Bribe or no bribe
00:52:34Harper Enterprise
00:52:35Got the deals anyway
00:52:37But now
00:52:38Julian's gone
00:52:39So
00:52:39The special treatment is gone
00:52:41Damien's little
00:52:43Riving incident
00:52:44It was just a convenient excuse
00:52:46To take everything back
00:52:47Understand now?
00:52:52And about those
00:52:54Flawless projects
00:52:55Harper Enterprise
00:52:56Didn't run smoothly
00:52:57Because Damien is brilliant
00:52:59It ran smoothly
00:53:01Because Julian
00:53:02Called every partner
00:53:04Every supplier
00:53:05Every gatekeeper
00:53:06And cleared the path for you
00:53:08Damien had nothing
00:53:10To do with that
00:53:12No
00:53:15That's not true
00:53:16I don't believe it
00:53:17You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch
00:53:20Watch what happens
00:53:22When Julian leaves
00:53:24Let's see if your exceptional
00:53:26Damien can keep
00:53:26Everything perfect
00:53:28When Julian is not there
00:53:29To hold
00:53:30The world together for you
00:53:33Come on
00:53:34Let's go
00:53:41Julian
00:53:41Is what she's saying
00:53:43True?
00:53:45You were right about one thing
00:53:46Serena
00:53:47Julian and I are closer
00:53:49Than you thought
00:53:50That's why it disgusts me
00:53:52Watching him
00:53:52Waste his life away
00:53:54On a selfish
00:53:55And blind woman
00:53:56Like you
00:54:01Was I wrong?
00:54:02No, no, no
00:54:03Serena
00:54:03Serena
00:54:03Do not listen to her
00:54:04Nonsense
00:54:05Harper's success
00:54:06Is based off of
00:54:07My hard work
00:54:08Okay
00:54:09Nora Lawson
00:54:09She's attacking
00:54:11And slandering
00:54:12My name
00:54:12To defend
00:54:13Julian
00:54:14You have to believe me
00:54:15Please
00:54:15You have to understand
00:54:16Because of you
00:54:17Crescent Lake
00:54:18Is gone
00:54:19Every Amber project
00:54:21Is gone
00:54:22Harper Enterprise
00:54:23Is on the edge
00:54:24Of collapse
00:54:25And you're asking me
00:54:26To trust you
00:54:27How?
00:54:28Tell me
00:54:29How?
00:54:30Please
00:54:30Just listen to me
00:54:31Okay, yeah
00:54:32We lost Amber group
00:54:33But we're not finished
00:54:35I mean
00:54:36We still have the partners
00:54:36And the CEOs
00:54:37I mean
00:54:37They love me
00:54:38They absolutely love
00:54:39And adore me
00:54:41I promise
00:54:41You know what
00:54:42Matter of fact
00:54:43I'm going to call
00:54:43And I'm going to get you
00:54:44Some new projects
00:54:45Right now
00:54:49Hello, Mr. Foster
00:54:50It's Damien here
00:54:51I hear the Grandview Plaza
00:54:52Is taking bids
00:54:53And Harper Enterprise
00:54:55You know
00:54:55We would absolutely
00:54:56Lefeb
00:54:57Harper Enterprise?
00:54:58Who the hell is that?
00:54:59You think you're even
00:55:00In the same league
00:55:01As Grandview Plaza?
00:55:03Uh
00:55:04Mr. Foster
00:55:06What do you mean?
00:55:08Last time we spoke
00:55:09You said
00:55:09You believed in the Harper Enterprise
00:55:11And that you would love
00:55:12To work together
00:55:13Listen up
00:55:14That's because
00:55:15Julian Clark
00:55:16Was in your damn enterprise
00:55:17I was giving him respect
00:55:19You
00:55:20Don't flatter yourself
00:55:21Bunch of blind dumbasses
00:55:23Call me again
00:55:24And I'll block
00:55:25Your fucking number
00:55:27So what really was Julian?
00:55:28No, no
00:55:29That's
00:55:29That's not possible
00:55:31I don't
00:55:31I don't believe that
00:55:32I don't
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker
00:55:34It's Damien
00:55:35I was hoping to talk about
00:55:36Future collaborations
00:55:37Damien
00:55:38You've got the fucking nerve
00:55:40To call me
00:55:41I gave Harper Enterprise Project
00:55:43Because of Mr. Clark
00:55:44And then you turned around
00:55:46And claimed
00:55:46You closed the deal
00:55:47Who gave you the audacity?
00:55:50Shameless trash?
00:55:54Miss Parker
00:55:56Miss Parker
00:55:57No
00:55:57No
00:55:58God damn it
00:55:59No
00:55:59I don't believe this
00:56:01I don't believe this
00:56:02Fucking
00:56:03Julian
00:56:03This whole fucking time
00:56:04God damn it
00:56:06Sorry
00:56:07Sorry
00:56:07Um
00:56:07Hello
00:56:09Mr. Turner
00:56:10It's Damien
00:56:11Damien
00:56:12Who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:13Calling me directly?
00:56:15Learn some manners
00:56:18Julian was polite enough
00:56:20To tolerate you
00:56:20Playing sideman
00:56:21With his fiance
00:56:22I'm not
00:56:22You bastard
00:56:23Tooie
00:56:25Mr. Turner
00:56:27Mr. Turner
00:56:28Please
00:56:31What the fuck is happening?
00:56:39Miss Harper
00:56:40This is bad
00:56:41Our partners are flooding us
00:56:43With messages
00:56:44They're suspending contracts
00:56:45Pulling out a deal
00:56:46Wait
00:56:46What is happening?
00:56:48They said before
00:56:49They only worked with Harper Enterprise
00:56:51Because Julian Clark backed us
00:56:52Now that he's gone
00:56:53They 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
00:57:07Deals
00:57:07Because of Julian
00:57:09Julian
00:57:10No, no, no
00:57:10Swingo
00:57:11Please
00:57:11Okay
00:57:12They're just saying that
00:57:13Because Julian has been paying them off
00:57:15Think about it
00:57:15Okay
00:57:16You know what?
00:57:16Just give you 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
00:57:20Get away from me
00:57:23You liar
00:57:24You fraud
00:57:25Damien
00:57:26All those CEOs
00:57:28They only had you pick up contracts
00:57:30From them
00:57:31And you told me
00:57:32You negotiated
00:57:33The deals
00:57:34I swear
00:57:35I didn't know
00:57:36I think that they would
00:57:39Get out of my sight
00:57:42Now
00:58:00Walk
00:58:01Damn it
00:58:01No
00:58:01I was this close
00:58:02To locking Serena down
00:58:04Stepping into the upper circle
00:58:05I'm not letting it end
00:58:06Like this
00:58:12Serena
00:58:13You really thought
00:58:14You were smart
00:58:16But you're really just
00:58:17Pathetic
00:58:19Trash
00:58:21Without Julian
00:58:22You're nothing
00:58:33Todd warned you
00:58:35Grandpa warned you
00:58:37And you still
00:58:38Wouldn't
00:58:40Listen
00:58:42You ignored
00:58:43Everything
00:58:44Julian did
00:58:45And worshipped
00:58:46A con artist
00:58:47Like
00:58:47Damien
00:59:00And now look at you

01:02:15Over and over
01:02:17And over again
01:02:19That Damien
01:02:20Was not a good man
01:02:22And you refused to listen
01:02:26And Julian
01:02:27If Julian doesn't come along
01:02:28Just at the right time
01:02:30Oh my god
01:02:32I can't even
01:02:33I can't even think about it
01:02:35If you don't do something about that stubborn part of yours
01:02:37One day
01:02:39You lived to regret it
01:02:41Dad
01:02:41Grandpa
01:02:42Please
01:02:42Stop
01:02:43I know I was wrong
01:02:45Okay
01:02:46I'll
01:02:46I'll apologize
01:02:48To Julian
01:02:50And
01:02:51I will follow through with the engagement
01:02:54The problem with that is that
01:02:56You may feel that way
01:02:57But Julian might not
01:03:00Grandpa
01:03:02Don't worry
01:03:04I will apologize properly
01:03:06And I will earn his forgiveness
01:03:10That's all we can do
01:03:13So John
01:03:14Put out a citywide bolo
01:03:16On that
01:03:17Bastard Damien
01:03:19He put his hands on my granddaughter
01:03:23We're not letting that go
01:03:25No
01:03:25We're not
01:03:27Understood
01:03:28Understood
01:03:29I
01:03:43Did
01:03:43work
01:03:44Copy
01:03:45Pat
01:03:45You
01:03:57Hunger
01:03:58ะะพัnel
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.
01:04:14Amber group backs you up.
01:04:16No questions asked.
01:04:18But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Not really.
01:04:32Hey, can you not do that?
01:04:35You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:38You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped
01:04:41and any man would have, you know,
01:04:44housed me by now.
01:04:46Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:49Hung up?
01:04:52You're not going to be hung up on Serena.
01:04:53She and I were never romantic.
01:04:56No, it's just a...
01:04:57business marriage between two families.
01:05:00Things are moving too fast.
01:05:02You gotta think twice.
01:05:04But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off
01:05:08into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:13Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:18Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:20My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune
01:05:22and he'll do whatever it takes
01:05:24to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger.
01:05:27I want you.
01:05:28I love you.
01:05:30Julian.
01:05:33Let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:38You know, if you'll marry me,
01:05:42my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:56Okay.
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,
01:06:22if I accept the gift,
01:06:25then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:32Then be gentle.
01:06:40Julian, you didn't forget
01:06:44what you promised last night, right?
01:06:46Uh, no.
01:06:47Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember that.
01:06:51You know,
01:06:52when someone wraps themselves
01:06:52as a gift,
01:06:54you kind of remember that
01:06:56for the rest of your life.
01:06:57Details.
01:06:58Those are just
01:07:00tiny details.
01:07:02Look like big details to me.
01:07:06Julian.
01:07:09Can I talk to you alone
01:07:10for a second?
01:07:12Serena,
01:07:12I really don't think
01:07:13there's anything
01:07:13we need to discuss.
01:07:14Julian,
01:07:15I 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
01:07:21and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:24And if you take me back,
01:07:25just tell me what you want.
01:07:26I'll do anything.
01:07:27I'm sorry.
01:07:28I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena,
01:07:40you once said
01:07:40you hate
01:07:41arranged marriages.
01:07:43Well,
01:07:44Julian hates them too.
01:07:45And yet,
01:07:46you stayed at Harper Enterprise
01:07:47for six full months.
01:07:49He asked you out
01:07:5037 times.
01:07:52So tell me,
01:07:52what exactly
01:07:54are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm?
01:07:57Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him
01:08:00like trash,
01:08:01someone else
01:08:02will treat him
01:08:03like treasure.
01:08:04Listen carefully.
01:08:05We are together now,
01:08:06so
01:08:07better keep your distance.
01:08:09If you don't,
01:08:11I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:14Come on.
01:08:15We're trying on
01:08:16our wedding outfits tonight.
01:08:18Let's not be late.
01:08:19Wedding outfits.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:40He's with Nora.
01:08:46Nora.
01:08:47Nora Lawson,
01:08:49CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:52You know,
01:08:53Serena,
01:08:54it's an elite
01:08:54like Julian.
01:08:56The second
01:08:57you let go,
01:08:58somebody comes
01:08:59and grabs him.
01:09:00You don't get
01:09:01another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family
01:09:03a chance,
01:09:04and we blew it.
01:09:07God,
01:09:08forgive the Harpers.
01:09:09Please.
01:09:12Ms. Hopper,
01:09:13Finance sent
01:09:13the latest reports.
01:09:15Hopper Enterprise's
01:09:16cash flow
01:09:17has collapsed.
01:09:18If we don't act
01:09:19immediately,
01:09:20we won't even have
01:09:21enough to make
01:09:21payroll this month.
01:09:24Great.
01:09:25Now all of
01:09:26Wall Street
01:09:26knows that we
01:09:27crossed Julian.
01:09:29That was going to
01:09:29lend to us now?
01:09:31How are we supposed
01:09:31to get financing?
01:09:33This is my fault,
01:09:34okay?
01:09:35I was blind.
01:09:36Are you proud now?
01:09:39I actually believed
01:09:40I was some
01:09:41business queen.
01:09:43I didn't realize
01:09:44that Julian
01:09:45was running
01:09:46everything,
01:09:47and the moment
01:09:47he's gone,
01:09:48I can't do anything.
01:09:51Dad,
01:09:53Grandpa,
01:09:54I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined
01:09:56Harper Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined
01:09:58everything.
01:10:00Dad,
01:10:01you're the one
01:10:02who arranged
01:10:02the engagement
01:10:03with Julian's
01:10:04grandfather,
01:10:04right?
01:10:05So maybe
01:10:06you should go
01:10:06talk to him
01:10:07and see if
01:10:08he'll give us
01:10:09a second chance.
01:10:10Yes,
01:10:11Grandpa.
01:10:12Julian listens
01:10:13to his grandfather.
01:10:14If we can get
01:10:15his acceptance
01:10:17and...
01:10:17Clark family
01:10:18isn't what it
01:10:18used to be.
01:10:21Yes,
01:10:22they honored
01:10:23our engagement,
01:10:25and that was
01:10:26a mercy,
01:10:26that was a blessing.
01:10:28But you
01:10:29threw it away.
01:10:32still,
01:10:34for your sake
01:10:36and for your future
01:10:36and for our future,
01:10:39we'll fight.
01:10:46Serena,
01:10:48when you see
01:10:49Julian's grandfather,
01:10:51your apology
01:10:52has to be
01:10:53sincere.
01:10:55if he forgives
01:10:57you,
01:10:57only then
01:10:58will you know
01:10:59that you have a chance
01:11:00to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood,
01:11:03Grandpa.
01:11:04For the Harper family,
01:11:05I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22welcome.
01:11:24You must be here
01:11:25for Mr. Clark
01:11:26and Ms. Lawson's
01:11:26engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing.
01:11:30They're just about
01:11:30to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:34So they're really
01:11:35engaged?
01:11:36How is this
01:11:38all happening
01:11:38so fast?
01:11:40What is this
01:11:41supposed to mean?
01:11:43Mr. Clark
01:11:43and Ms. Lawson
01:11:44have known each other
01:11:45since they were born,
01:11:46and everyone
01:11:46is so happy
01:11:48that they're finally
01:11:48getting married.
01:11:50Oh,
01:11:50oh,
01:11:51I see.
01:11:52You didn't come here
01:11:53to congratulate them,
01:11:55right?
01:11:56Then,
01:11:56please leave.
01:11:58Otherwise,
01:11:59I will have to
01:11:59call security.
01:12:05If there's
01:12:06an engagement party,
01:12:07that means
01:12:09Julian's grandfather
01:12:10has already approved
01:12:11of an engagement.
01:12:14And that means
01:12:15we're done.
01:12:17There's no more
01:12:18chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:25All right,
01:12:26everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54Oh,
01:12:54it's nothing.
01:12:55Come on,
01:12:55dinner's almost ready.
01:13:10Dad,
01:13:11the Harpers.
01:13:13My grandson
01:13:14grew up with everything.
01:13:18For a young one,
01:13:20it was six months
01:13:21at Harper Enterprise.
01:13:22It was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown the Harper
01:13:27more mercy
01:13:28than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay,
01:13:41enough,
01:13:41Serena.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:43You can't drink this away.
01:13:45Harper Enterprise
01:13:46is hanging on
01:13:47by a thread.
01:13:48If you don't get up,
01:13:49it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me
01:13:53the fuck alone.
01:13:54Okay?
01:13:54Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot
01:13:56who ruined everything.
01:13:58I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:59No,
01:13:59you...
01:14:02All right,
01:14:03I've got to take this.
01:14:04Don't move.
01:14:05I'll be right back
01:14:06and then
01:14:07I am taking you home.
01:14:09No.
01:14:17Nora.
01:14:20Okay,
01:14:21Nora,
01:14:22be honest.
01:14:23You're moving
01:14:24insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged
01:14:27and you're getting married
01:14:28next week?
01:14:30Let's see.
01:14:31You've known Julian
01:14:32for 20 plus years.
01:14:34You couldn't wait
01:14:35a couple more months?
01:14:35I've liked Julian
01:14:37for 20 years
01:14:38and I finally
01:14:39got him to say yes.
01:14:40You think I'm not
01:14:41going to lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise,
01:14:45of course.
01:14:46They're collapsing
01:14:47and treating Julian
01:14:48like 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
01:14:59were forced into that.
01:15:00There's no real love.
01:15:02Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:04You don't get it.
01:15:07Julian stayed at
01:15:08Harper Enterprise
01:15:09for six months
01:15:10and it wasn't just
01:15:11because he's
01:15:12grandfather watery.
01:15:13Then why?
01:15:16Because Serena
01:15:19is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:27No way!
01:15:29I'm serious.
01:15:30The girls Julian
01:15:32liked growing up
01:15:32that exact time.
01:15:35I mean,
01:15:36with his personality,
01:15:38even if his grandfather
01:15:39forced him,
01:15:40he would have stayed there
01:15:41for three days max
01:15:42and then vanished.
01:15:43He would not
01:15:44stay there
01:15:45and take six months
01:15:47of humiliation
01:15:47if he didn't want it.
01:15:49That's...
01:15:50Julian Clark.
01:15:51So that's why?
01:15:53Serena must have
01:15:54destroyed him.
01:15:55I have to get married
01:15:57fast.
01:15:58I cannot give her
01:15:59a single chance.
01:16:01So that's what it was.
01:16:02Julian stayed at
01:16:03Harper Enterprise
01:16:04for six months
01:16:05because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me.
01:16:08That means
01:16:08I still have a chance.
01:16:10I still have a chance.
01:16:12This is my last shot.
01:16:13I am not wasting it.
01:16:21Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome
01:16:31the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow.
01:16:46They look perfect
01:16:47together.
01:16:48They're childhood
01:16:49sweethearts.
01:16:50The whole fantasy.
01:16:51Oh my God.
01:16:52Brilliant.
01:16:54And now
01:16:55for the exchange
01:16:55of rings.
01:17:09Wait!
01:17:16Serena,
01:17:16what 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
01:17:25who rode on Julian's
01:17:26back to the IPO
01:17:27and then kicked him out
01:17:28like he was nothing?
01:17:29Without Julian,
01:17:30Harper Enterprise
01:17:31is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena,
01:17:36what are you doing here?
01:17:40Julian,
01:17:41I know you like me.
01:17:43You wouldn't have
01:17:44stayed at Harper Enterprise
01:17:45for six months
01:17:46humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please,
01:17:57give me another chance.
01:18:02Our engagement
01:18:03is over.
01:18:04In fact,
01:18:05you were the one
01:18:05that called it off.
01:18:07Look,
01:18:08this is my wedding.
01:18:09Have some dignity.
01:18:10In fact,
01:18:11can we get her out of here,
01:18:11please?
01:18:12No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just...
01:18:16No.
01:18:20I know you hate me
01:18:22because I rejected you
01:18:2437 times,
01:18:25but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times,
01:18:30370 times,
01:18:31whatever it did.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:37Julian,
01:18:38what do you want from me?
01:18:39I know you like me,
01:18:40so why won't you
01:18:41give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:43Why?
01:18:47Simple question.
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:53I...
01:18:53Exactly.
01:18:54You don't.
01:18:55You didn't realize
01:18:56you made a mistake.
01:18:57You realized
01:18:58that Harper Enterprise
01:18:59is dying.
01:19:01What you want
01:19:02is not a chance,
01:19:03but a tool.
01:19:05You want me back
01:19:05so you can be
01:19:06Wall Street's
01:19:06business queen again,
01:19:07huh?
01:19:09No,
01:19:10that...
01:19:11that's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:16Please, listen.
01:19:16Enough.
01:19:17Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me
01:19:18out of Harper Enterprise,
01:19:19do you remember
01:19:20how cold and arrogant
01:19:20you were?
01:19:23Let me ask you this.
01:19:24If Harper Enterprise
01:19:25had not collapsed,
01:19:27if your value
01:19:27kept climbing,
01:19:29would you still be here
01:19:30standing in front of me
01:19:30today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34No,
01:19:35no,
01:19:35you wouldn't.
01:19:35You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:37You'd be celebrating.
01:19:38You'd say that you
01:19:39earned the business queen
01:19:40a crown.
01:19:41You'd be mocking me,
01:19:42calling me pathetic.
01:19:43You'd say that firing me
01:19:45was the best decision
01:19:45you ever made.
01:19:46Plus,
01:19:47you'd still be with
01:19:47that asshole Damien.
01:19:49No.
01:19:50No,
01:19:51Serena.
01:19:52That's not me.
01:19:54Just admit it,
01:19:55Serena.
01:19:56You don't feel
01:19:57anything for me.
01:19:58But on my wedding day,
01:19:59you show up
01:19:59like some tragic
01:20:00devoted lover.
01:20:01Why?
01:20:02Because you want me back
01:20:03as your lifeline,
01:20:04your donor,
01:20:05your goddamn
01:20:06blood supply.
01:20:07But the moment
01:20:08I stop being useful,
01:20:09you will kick me away
01:20:10again without
01:20:11a moment's hesitation.
01:20:13No.
01:20:15No,
01:20:15Julian.
01:20:16That is not true
01:20:17the night
01:20:18that you saved me
01:20:20from Damien.
01:20:21I...
01:20:23I felt something
01:20:24for you.
01:20:25I did.
01:20:26Stop.
01:20:26Do not perform
01:20:27at my wedding.
01:20:28You don't regret
01:20:29hurting me.
01:20:30You regret
01:20:31choosing the wrong man.
01:20:32You regret
01:20:33that Harper Enterprise
01:20:33is dying.
01:20:35You know,
01:20:36I'll admit,
01:20:36when I met you,
01:20:38you were exactly
01:20:39my type.
01:20:41But once I got
01:20:42to know you,
01:20:43once I realized
01:20:43what you really are,
01:20:45all I felt
01:20:46was disgust.
01:20:48But Nora?
01:20:51She has cared for me
01:20:53since we were kids.
01:20:56when I was sick,
01:20:58she stayed up all night
01:20:59taking 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
01:21:05to Harper Enterprise
01:21:06on the engagement,
01:21:08she still supported me.
01:21:10She still took hits
01:21:11from me.
01:21:14So,
01:21:15let me ask you,
01:21:18why would I give up
01:21:19all of that
01:21:19for you?
01:21:22What makes you think
01:21:23you deserve that?
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't,
01:21:32Julian.
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,
01:21:38please,
01:21:38please stop.
01:21:39Let me go.
01:21:40Julian,
01:21:41please 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
01:21:51like a weapon,
01:21:52totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:22:24Mr. 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,
01:22:50we'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
01:22:5815 years.
01:22:59You can't just walk in
01:23:00and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years,
01:23:02wow.
01:23:03Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years
01:23:05to make this company clean,
01:23:06and instead,
01:23:07you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know,
01:23:10I've been watching you guys
01:23:11for about six months now,
01:23:13and I've seen how you all work.
01:23:16Bribes,
01:23:18embezzlement,
01:23:20kickbacks,
01:23:22fraud.
01:23:24I hope you want to be able to smile.
01:23:26So, we're going to be passing out
01:23:27some resignation terms,
01:23:30and once you sign them,
01:23:32hand over your badges,
01:23:34or you're going to rot in jail.
01:23:37This.
01:23:38This is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:58Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:59He begged him to acquire
01:24:01Harper Enterprise
01:24:01so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:07Julian.
01:24:10If I didn't treat you the way I did,
01:24:14would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian,
01:24:24why don't you get thrown away
01:24:25and still land something better?
01:24:27I spent my whole life
01:24:28climbing upwards,
01:24:29and now I'm stuck at the bottom,
01:24:30hunted by cops.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian,
01:24:34what's yours?
01:24:35Julian?
01:24:36Let's go!
01:24:40Let me go!
01:24:41Fucking let me go!
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all,
01:24:45did you?
01:24:46Go ahead,
01:24:46take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best lawyer money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:49Fuck the coward.
01:24:50You're a fucking coward!
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's wedding.
01:24:54No,
01:24:54no,
01:24:54fight me.
01:24:55101!
01:24:55101!
01:24:56Let the guards go!
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts,
01:24:58do 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,
01:25:23I was wrong.
