Transcript

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

00:00:05We cleared six million in one year. But me? He gave me only a hundred grand.

00:00:09A prep cook barely makes two thousand a month. I gave you a hundred grand and only because you're

00:00:16my brother. I took it with a smile. Then I turned around and leased that run-down

00:00:22filthy restaurant right across from his. I started my own place. The second my restaurant

00:00:28overtook Iron Anchor. Percy snapped. He smashed his own car hood. He just

00:00:33couldn't wrap his head around it. How did his useless younger brother's

00:00:37restaurant become the most popular place in town? Percy, I've got an opening for a

00:00:43prep cook. Two thousand dollars a month. Business blew up this year. We cleared six

00:00:52mill. Here's your share. I took it and counted. Only a hundred thousand. Not even a fraction of the

00:01:02restaurant's profit. I put up the money for this restaurant. I did all the live streams

00:01:07and marketing. You're just a line cook. Any bum off the street could do your job. If you

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

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

00:01:21Okay, I want to tell you about my restaurant. Just give me three minutes and I'll tell you

00:01:26about my restaurant. Thank you for providing such high quality ingredients. You really helped

00:01:33us solve a big problem. I went back and forth between thousands of restaurants, studying what

00:01:40customers really want. Sir, you've been creeping on our customers for five hours. Move along or I'm

00:01:44calling the cops. Sorry, sorry. I'm leaving right now.

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

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

00:02:00half the work for that six million and that hundred thousand Percy gave me. Ninety thousand of it was

00:02:06just him paying me back for the purchasing money. I'd already fronted all year, but I still took

00:02:11the money. Thanks. I turned, pushed the door open, and then Percy called out to me. The citywide

00:02:17benchmark judging is in three days. The mayor is coming to Iron Anchor to try the fatty tuna sushi.

00:02:21Your sashimi is the most popular with customers. So make sure you have a blue fit tuna ready and cut

00:02:26the belly part well. Okay. See you in three days. Good boy. I didn't say a word. Percy never thought

00:02:37I'd be that easy to brush off. And me. I stood in front of that failed restaurant right across the

00:02:48street. The one that couldn't keep up with Iron Anchor and went belly up. Everyone knew it was

00:02:53filthy. Broken. A total mess. Percy thought it was a dump. A place only bums would set foot in.

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

00:03:07Nobody survives across from Iron Anchor. You absolutely sure? I'm sure. I walked out after

00:03:12signing the papers. And across the street, Iron Anchor was already partying, getting hyped for

00:03:17the mayor's big arrival. What Percy didn't realize? That award in three days. It was about to turn into

00:03:23his worst nightmare. This rundown shop was hidden away. Filthy. Pitch. Dark. Thick layers of grease

00:03:32covered everything. I didn't complain. Though, inside, I was actually pumped. Percy quickly realized

00:03:40someone had rented that dump across the street again. He got out of his fancy car, saw it was me,

00:03:46and just lost it, laughing so hard he could barely stand.

00:03:53Grayson, you absolute idiot. I gave you $100,000 and you blow it on this rat hole?

00:03:59Don't you have any idea how good a life $100,000 could have bought you? I ignored him. Percy started

00:04:05wandering around the restaurant on his own. Even pulled out his phone and went live,

00:04:09making exaggerated faces at the camera. Look at this, folks. Thick, nasty grease all over the

00:04:15tables. This place is so disgusting. I swear even a rat wouldn't come near it. Then he put his arm

00:04:21around my shoulder and struck a friendly pose for the camera. Grayson, I'm your older brother. I have

00:04:28to take care of you. You're always welcome back at Iron Archer. I did fill your old spot for half

00:04:33the pay,

00:04:34but you know how replaceable that kind of job is. After humiliating me, Percy left the restaurant

00:04:39satisfied. He had to get ready for the mayor's visit. He had his workers turn the place into a

00:04:45luxurious palace. But one thing he would never understand, a restaurant's true essence is the

00:04:50food. And me, I stayed up late every night, cleaning the restaurant. It was already three in the morning

00:04:59when I got home. The light was still on. I caught my reflection in the mirror by the door,

00:05:03covered in dirt. My face exhausted. I panicked. I didn't want my family to worry, but I knew I had

00:05:09to face it eventually. My wife Mia looked at me with concern. Honey, what happened? Why are you so

00:05:19late? Percy asked me to clean the kitchen. I didn't have time to wash up. Mia looked uneasy. She took

00:05:27my

00:05:27hand and pulled me down onto the sofa. I saw the news. The mayor is going to personally review Iron

00:05:34Archer. The restaurant you and Percy opened is really making money, big enough to even get the

00:05:40mayor's attention. Did he give you any of it? Sure. He gave me a hundred grand. Only a hundred grand?

00:05:48The news said the place cleared six million. That's not fair. You put your whole heart into this

00:05:54restaurant for an entire year. At least half of the credit is yours. How could he do this

00:06:00to you? Mia, calm down. Percy is an idiot with his head stuck up in the clouds. Why are you

00:06:07still

00:06:07working for him? I'm opening my own restaurant. I support whatever decision you make.

00:06:20Here's 20 grand. Go all in, Grayson. The baby and I will be just fine.

00:06:27I won't let you down. I swear. The industry benchmark restaurant awards were in two days.

00:06:34That night, I couldn't sleep at all. What if I let Mia down? The dirty, pitch black image of

00:06:40sea mist restaurant kept flashing through my mind. I wasn't sure if the changes I made would be enough

00:06:45to pass the inspection. I started doubting whether going solo was the right move or just a stupid

00:06:50decision made out of anger. I picked up the little notebook I've been keeping for years

00:06:54and sat down at the desk. It is filled with all kinds of customer info and preferences I've recorded

00:07:00including the mayor's. I once sat in a high-end restaurant and carefully watched how he ate,

00:07:05what he left on his plate. This notebook gives me the confidence that comes from experience.

00:07:10Then suddenly, my phone rang. What did you say? Sea mist restaurant passed the qualification

00:07:18inspection? This is the best Christmas gift I've ever received.

00:07:25With the license in hand, I'm halfway there. I reached out to the supplier I'd worked so hard

00:07:29to win over before. He'd always seen my potential and the moment he heard I was opening my own place,

00:07:33he cut ties with Percy on the spot and said yes. You should have gone out on your own a

00:07:37long time ago.

00:07:38I can tell you've got way more ability than that brother of yours. All he knows is flashy tricks.

00:07:45I'd just sent the supplier off when Percy came back from a night of drinking.

00:07:48If he'd paid even a little attention to his own purchasing, he would have recognized that the guy

00:07:52leaving was his biggest supplier. Maybe then his restaurant would still stand a chance. Too bad.

00:07:58All he cares about is messing with that ridiculous haircut of his in his live stream that never gets more

00:08:03than five people. He didn't recognize him at all. Don't say I never give you a chance.

00:08:08The mayor's coming to Iron Anchor in person tomorrow. My dear little brother, I'm your only shot at rubbing

00:08:15elbows with big shots like that. And make sure you bring your wife Mia. I swear, she's never seen

00:08:22anything this grand in her life. Percy's laugh was full of contempt. He was sure I couldn't measure up to

00:08:29him in any way. Tomorrow was going to be his day to shine. And at an event like this, his

00:08:34little brother,

00:08:34the one foolish enough to open a restaurant right across from Iron Anchor, would be the perfect person

00:08:39to compare himself to. I'll be there on time.

00:08:44Here's 10 bucks.

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

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

00:08:56sure of it that he boasted and signed a whole year's worth of orders for the future. But he

00:09:00overlooked me. A brother he'd never once seen as a competitor. Insignificant. Obedient. Beneath note.

00:09:07When I got home, I told Mia that I was going to Percy's restaurant for the awards event. I could

00:09:13see the

00:09:13worry in her eyes. No, Grayson, you don't have to go to that awards event tomorrow. Can't you see?

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

00:09:24Mia, I've already decided to go. If he tries to embarrass me, I'll forget we're brothers and I'll

00:09:30take his place for good. A place that was always meant to be mine. Fine. I'll go with you.

00:09:45Percy hadn't seated the guests yet. He was waiting by the door for something. The moment

00:09:50he saw Mia and me show up, his eyes locked onto us like a radar. Look, there's my little brother.

00:09:59Let me introduce you all. This is my brother Grayson. He just took over a garbage dump across

00:10:04the street from Iron Anchor and thinks he's going to compete with me. Percy said it like a joke.

00:10:09All the guests looked at me with contempt in their eyes. Even Mia's smile froze on her face.

00:10:17You know what Percy nets a year? Six million dollars. You won't see that kind of money in

00:10:23ten lifetimes. You really should just stick with your brother. That way you can at least

00:10:28lap up some of the leftovers. Don't mind them, Grayson. What they said was harsh, but it's the truth.

00:10:38That's enough. You're all way out of line. The truth is, he's better than every one of you.

00:10:45Grayson, control your wife. This isn't the place for a scene. Easy, Mia. I'm fine.

00:10:59Here's my card. You're all welcome to come check out my new restaurant across the street.

00:11:03Percy looked at me in disbelief. He never expected that after being humiliated like that.

00:11:08Grayson, what are you doing here? I'd still be able to hand out my business card.

00:11:11Everyone looked embarrassed. No one took it.

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

00:11:18Don't be ridiculous. I smiled and shook my head. I swear, one day they'll be begging to work with me.

00:11:31These are all Iron Anchor's signature dishes. Everyone, help yourselves.

00:11:38I could see right through it. The dishes looked exactly the same as before, but the ingredients

00:11:43had changed. Percy always cuts corners with cheap ingredients to save money,

00:11:48but he doesn't understand his customers. Every single one of them has a picky palate.

00:11:53Without my notebook that records every customer's preferences, he can never make the perfect dish.

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

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

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

00:12:10Percy kept bragging about how successful his restaurant had become in just one year,

00:12:15how much money he'd made. Mia was so upset, she couldn't even eat. The anger in her eyes could

00:12:20have skinned Percy alive. But that wasn't enough for Percy. He brought me up again.

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

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

00:12:37brother after all. Percy, you're such a good man. Your brother has a death wish opening a restaurant

00:12:43right across from you, and you're still looking out for him. Of course. What does a line cook know

00:12:50about running a restaurant? Without Percy, he's nothing.

00:12:56I was furious. All anyone could see was Percy's winning globe. No one saw the one who'd done all

00:13:02the work behind the scenes. Percy was soaking up the praise, laughing and clinking glasses with those

00:13:07guests. And that was the moment he completely cut off the last bit of mercy I had left for him.

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

00:13:16I raised my glass, a calm smile on my face. You're all right. Everything I do I learned

00:13:21from Percy, my respected big brother. The mayor was arriving any minute. Percy told me to go to

00:13:29the kitchen and get ready to cut the bluefin tuna. Grayson, get your ass to the kitchen and help out.

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

00:13:40And the only reason is because you're my brother. Percy finished talking and went off to greet the

00:13:46mayor. I looked at the mayor. I knew my chance had come.

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

00:14:03Percy never understood how important fresh ingredients are to a restaurant.

00:14:08And now that top-tier supplier belongs to me. The one who took over supplying Iron Anchor?

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

00:14:21This tuna smells really weird.

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

00:14:32Grayson, step aside. The new guy here can actually handle a knife.

00:14:42Grayson, you just stand aside and watch. Even for a line cook, you've still got a lot to learn.

00:14:47Percy didn't care about my skills. He asked me to come to the kitchen only to humiliate me

00:14:53with the new hire to prove I was good for nothing. But he had no idea how complicated Blue Fit

00:15:00Tuna is.

00:15:02Without real knife skills, you can't handle it properly. Especially a piece of cheap, low-quality tuna like this.

00:15:11Percy, you're going to regret everything you've done today. I swear it.

00:15:16I'm just trying to make my little brother better. Otherwise, how is he going to support you and the baby

00:15:20in your belly?

00:15:21That failing restaurant across the street?

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

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

00:15:36Grayson, I really feel sorry for you.

00:15:41That is right. After today, one of us is going to take over the world and the other is going

00:15:46to fade into obscurity.

00:15:48I watched very carefully. Joss thought I was actually learning, and he even took the time to explain things to

00:15:53me.

00:15:54I smiled. With such lousy technique, that Blue Fied Tuna was going to end up as nothing but a pile

00:15:59of ruined meat in his hands.

00:16:01And the mayor. He hates nothing more than being handed low-quality.

00:16:07Butchered tuna. Like it is no big deal.

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

00:16:18He had no idea his restaurant was heading straight to hell.

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

00:16:24Meanwhile, the highest quality gluten tuna was being delivered to C. Nist Restaurant,

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

00:16:36My dear fans, it's showtime! The mayor is here!

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

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

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

00:16:57Grayson.

00:16:58Never been smart. Only good for the dirty work in the back.

00:17:01He recently opened some dump called Sea Mist right over there.

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

00:17:10feel free to go try his chemical waste.

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

00:17:15Having that guy across the street is polluting our whole neighborhood.

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

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

00:17:24Are you crazy?

00:17:26A little place that can't even fit two people in the bathroom,

00:17:29and you think you can hand the mayor your business card?

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

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

00:17:39Grayson! Stop embarrassing yourself here!

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

00:17:49You're calm. I like that.

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

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

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

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

00:18:14Please take a seat.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:19:35Everyone, stay sharp.

00:19:39Yes!

00:19:40Yes!

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

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

00:19:58His smile vanished.

00:19:59Guests gagged.

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

00:20:03Percy!

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

00:20:05Open your damn eyes!

00:20:06Is this meant for humans?

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

00:20:09Cold.

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

00:20:11Cold sweat dripped from his temples down into his collar.

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

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

00:20:19No!

00:20:19Mr. Mayor, let me explain.

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

00:20:25Advanced aging?

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

00:20:28Old meat to cut costs.

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

00:20:32The whole city was watching him feed garbage to the mayor.

00:20:36Fine.

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

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

00:20:39Bring it to him.

00:20:40Eat it, Percy.

00:20:41Every last piece.

00:20:42Right now.

00:20:43No!

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

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

00:20:48No!

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

00:20:51The security guard stepped forward.

00:20:52The cold, intimidating pressure left Percy with no way out.

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

00:21:01a pathetic stray dog.

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

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

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

00:21:11The real ruin of the iron anchor was just getting started.

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

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

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

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

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

00:21:31The sushi is fine.

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

00:21:33It's my stomach.

00:21:34It's upset.

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

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

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

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

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

00:21:51Damn it!

00:21:51You used rotten meat!

00:21:53That's why you're such a mess right now!

00:21:54Percy, you idiot!

00:21:55You just blew the entire war!

00:21:56No, no, no!

00:21:57It's not what you think!

00:21:58And just like that, Percy's noble image was gone, shattered in front of the live stream

00:22:03and the entire city.

00:22:04Enough!

00:22:05I want a full investigation of Iron Anchor right now!

00:22:08Percy wanted to stop it, but he couldn't move.

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

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

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

00:22:23The smell is absolutely disgusting!

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

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

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

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

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

00:22:37Now!

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

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

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

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

00:22:50That was until a contract signed with the shady supplier was pulled out of a drawer.

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

00:22:57Banned.

00:22:57That's what it was.

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

00:23:00The fancy front.

00:23:00But the food, itself.

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

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

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

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

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

00:23:09You didn't know?

00:23:10You're playing games with people's lives!

00:23:14Percy looked around in despair.

00:23:16Nothing but contempt.

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

00:23:20If this is the best Surla Street has to offer,

00:23:21then I will shut down every single restaurant on this entire street!

00:23:24The whole place erupted.

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

00:23:27If the whole street got shut down,

00:23:29they would lose countless future business deals.

00:23:30Percy, you animal!

00:23:31You want to serve trash?

00:23:33Fine!

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

00:23:35You disgusting little roach!

00:23:36Go to hell!

00:23:37That is human nature.

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

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

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

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

00:23:46I patted her hand.

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

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

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

00:23:57Percy panicked.

00:23:58Iron Anchor was facing closure.

00:24:00And me, his worthless little brother,

00:24:02bringing in a chef with the very same cut of fish.

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

00:24:07Mr. Mayor, before you give up on this street,

00:24:09please give real Surla Street cuisine one chance.

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

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

00:24:20I'm warning you.

00:24:22Throw that trash away!

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

00:24:25The second she heard that,

00:24:26she hauled off and slapped Percy right across the face.

00:24:28Wipe that disgusting superior look off your face,

00:24:31you arrogant jerk!

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

00:24:35Whatever my husband has in that box

00:24:37is worth more than you and your whole restaurant ever were!

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

00:24:41You shameless bitch!

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

00:24:44He had his security restrained Percy,

00:24:46then looked at the takeout box in my hand.

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

00:24:52See, Mr. Restaurant.

00:24:54Please enjoy.

00:25:09I've never seen sashimi with such perfect texture.

00:25:12It's as thin as a leaf.

00:25:13The aroma's so rich.

00:25:15My mouth is watering.

00:25:16The live stream went wild, too.

00:25:18The comments were full of curiosity about my food.

00:25:21Because of this turnaround,

00:25:22the viewer count instantly skyrocketed.

00:25:24by 10,000.

00:25:26Tuna of this grade.

00:25:27My supplier swore I was his only client in Manhattan.

00:25:29Your so-called supply chain is just a transaction.

00:25:31What Grayson earned is the supplier's respect.

00:25:33He deserves to have the best ingredients,

00:25:35way more than your iron anchor ever did.

00:25:37I watched the mayor's fingertips tremble.

00:25:40That is the instinctive reaction of a true gourmet

00:25:42in the presence of something transcendent.

00:25:45Percy always thought waving his checkbook around on live stream

00:25:48would let him control everything.

00:25:50But he never knew.

00:25:51Some ingredients can't be bought.

00:25:53They choose who deserves them.

00:25:56My God.

00:25:57The sweetness,

00:25:58the way this fat just dissolves,

00:26:00it's melting on your tongue.

00:26:01Grayson, I take back what I said earlier.

00:26:03This isn't just food.

00:26:04This is art.

00:26:04This year's industry benchmark restaurant

00:26:08is not this foul-smelling iron anchor.

00:26:11It goes to...

00:26:18Wait, C-Miss shouldn't even be in the running.

00:26:20Everyone knows that place is a dump,

00:26:22full of grease and rats.

00:26:24It doesn't even meet basic health and safety standards.

00:26:26Percy looked at me with that smug expression,

00:26:28like he'd finally cornered the clown.

00:26:30Too bad.

00:26:31This time, the joke was on him.

00:26:33Save the pity, Grayson.

00:26:34Grayson, I know you tried really hard to steal first place from me.

00:26:37Too bad.

00:26:39Trying isn't enough.

00:26:40You'll never surpass me, little brother.

00:26:42Mr. Mayor,

00:26:44it would be my honor to lead the way

00:26:46and show everyone this garbage-dimp Grayson calls a restaurant.

00:26:51That place has been closed for ages.

00:26:53I heard the last owner was so bitter.

00:26:55He poured cooking oil all over the floors on his way out.

00:26:57You can't even walk in there.

00:26:59That's right.

00:26:59And he left all kinds of expired food in there, too.

00:27:02It's probably a full-blown rat kingdom by now.

00:27:04What right does a dump like that have to call itself a restaurant?

00:27:07What do we do?

00:27:09Mr. Mayor,

00:27:10and everyone here,

00:27:12as the owner of C-Missed Restaurant,

00:27:14I invite you all to come see it for yourselves.

00:27:16You idiot.

00:27:17Get ready to watch your precious restaurant get shut down.

00:27:20My dear fans,

00:27:22I'm about to show you the most chaotic,

00:27:25filthiest garbage dump on Surla Street.

00:27:28You cannot imagine

00:27:29how absolutely disgusting that place is.

00:27:35Percy, lying has consequences.

00:27:37It's totally fake.

00:27:39I guarantee you behind this door,

00:27:40it's nothing but trash and stink.

00:27:42Bracing.

00:27:43Just wait and see.

00:27:44Percy's smug smile kept growing,

00:27:46but all of that was about to come to a screeching halt

00:27:48the second I opened that door.

00:27:55This is impossible.

00:27:56Oh my God!

00:27:57In just a few days,

00:27:59that dump has completely changed.

00:28:01It's so clean and tidy.

00:28:03Way more pleasant to look at

00:28:05than Iron Anchor's tacky, flashy decorations.

00:28:12Grayson, your taste is just as impressive as your food.

00:28:22Man, this place is cleaner than an operating room.

00:28:25I worked around the clock,

00:28:26kneeling on that filthy floor,

00:28:28scrubbing every single crack with a brush.

00:28:30Percy spent his money on those Gaudi chandeliers that blind you.

00:28:33I spent mine on every little detail you can touch.

00:28:36This is all just for show!

00:28:37You can fake the decor,

00:28:39but you can't fake the ingredients!

00:28:43Grayson, you're broke!

00:28:44Your monthly rent is $500.

00:28:46How can you afford top-grade blue-fit tuna?

00:28:49I bet that piece he just fed you

00:28:51was the only decent one he's got.

00:28:52His freezer must be packed

00:28:54with cheap frozen garbage.

00:28:56Trash will always be trash!

00:28:59You want to see?

00:29:00I'll show you.

00:29:06So many.

00:29:08Tuna of this quality,

00:29:09only three restaurants in all of New York

00:29:11can get their hands on these.

00:29:15Percy, take a good look.

00:29:17This is what you call garbage.

00:29:19No!

00:29:20You must have injected poison into these rotten fish,

00:29:22sprayed them with chemicals!

00:29:23Who the hell is insulting my fish?

00:29:29You are...

00:29:30I worked with Iron Anchor for a whole year.

00:29:33Not once did you bother to remember my name.

00:29:35Percy, you're an absolute idiot.

00:29:39You're Iron Anchor's biggest supplier

00:29:41from this past year.

00:29:42You traitor!

00:29:43You're the traitor!

00:29:44And premium ingredients should go to people

00:29:46who actually appreciate them!

00:29:49Mr. Mayor,

00:29:50I'm the largest seafood distributor in California.

00:29:52I hereby certify that all ingredients

00:29:55used by Sea Mist Restaurant

00:29:56are exclusively supplied through my special channel

00:29:59with the highest A-level safety rating.

00:30:01Mr. Grayson is the most knowledgeable person

00:30:04about ingredients I've ever met.

00:30:06That's why I ended all my contracts

00:30:07with Iron Anchor for him.

00:30:09Are you insane?

00:30:11I give you millions of dollars a year!

00:30:13What about him?

00:30:14All he got was the lousy hundred grand

00:30:15I threw at him!

00:30:16After lashing out at the supplier,

00:30:19Percy turned his rage back on me.

00:30:21Grayson!

00:30:21You ungrateful snake!

00:30:23You took the hundred grand I gave you

00:30:26and used it to steal my supplier

00:30:27and become my enemy?

00:30:28Don't you have any family loyalty at all?

00:30:31Percy.

00:30:34Percy.

00:30:35Out of that hundred grand,

00:30:36ninety thousand was purchasing money

00:30:38I fronted for you.

00:30:42The remaining ten thousand

00:30:43was what you paid me

00:30:45for three years

00:30:46of working my ass off

00:30:47day and night.

00:30:48You thought you could buy my dignity.

00:30:50I'm taking it back with my own hands.

00:30:53We're even.

00:30:54And don't forget,

00:30:55this supplier was mine

00:30:56from the very beginning.

00:30:57Percy's eyes went unfocused.

00:30:59It looked like he was finally remembering

00:31:01how hard I worked a year ago,

00:31:03visiting supplier after supplier,

00:31:05screening through thousands of them

00:31:06to find this one.

00:31:07Percy wanted to keep arguing,

00:31:09but fate wasn't going to give him

00:31:11any more chances.

00:31:12Mr. Mayor,

00:31:13it's not just the ingredients.

00:31:15The entire interior of Iron Anchor

00:31:16is built with the cheapest,

00:31:17most flammable formalhyde-laid

00:31:18boards just painted over

00:31:19with a layer of gold.

00:31:20Iron Anchor is basically

00:31:21a poison gas chamber

00:31:22that would explode

00:31:22the second it touches fire.

00:31:27That's disgusting.

00:31:28All for show.

00:31:30Percy,

00:31:30get out of the restaurant industry.

00:31:33Mr. Mayor,

00:31:34I was wrong.

00:31:36I just wanted the restaurant

00:31:37to look better.

00:31:38You risk people's lives

00:31:40just to look good?

00:31:41Percy's tears rolled down

00:31:43his fake, lying face.

00:31:44He used to throw money

00:31:45in front of me

00:31:46and call me a country bumpin'

00:31:48who'd never seen the world.

00:31:49And now,

00:31:50that live-streaming empire

00:31:51he'd so carefully built

00:31:53was collapsing inch by inch

00:31:55in front of a global audience.

00:31:56I hereby declare,

00:31:58Sea Mist Restaurant,

00:31:59the industry benchmark restaurant

00:32:02for this year.

00:32:03Effective immediately,

00:32:05Iron Anchor's business license

00:32:07is permanently revoked.

00:32:09All assets are to be seized.

00:32:11Percy is under official investigation

00:32:13for food safety crimes

00:32:15and commercial fraud.

00:32:17Now,

00:32:18throw this cockroach

00:32:20out of here.

00:32:27Grayson!

00:32:29Save me!

00:32:30You're my own little brother.

00:32:31Your restaurant

00:32:32is right across the street.

00:32:33You can fix this.

00:32:34You have to.

00:32:35I gave him a year.

00:32:36A whole year.

00:32:37But all he ever learned

00:32:39was how to put on a show

00:32:40for his live screen.

00:32:41Grayson!

00:32:43Grayson,

00:32:44I'm begging you.

00:32:44You're tight with the mayor.

00:32:45Please put in a good word for me.

00:32:47You can't let them close my place.

00:32:48That's everything I've got.

00:32:50Everything you've got, Percy?

00:32:51You call rotten meat

00:32:53and fake gold

00:32:53paint everything you've got?

00:32:54Just don't shut me down.

00:32:56I'll do anything you want.

00:32:57I'll give you all the shares.

00:32:58You come back and be the boss.

00:33:00I'll work for you.

00:33:01I'll be your line cook.

00:33:02Percy,

00:33:03do you remember

00:33:03how you humiliated Grayson?

00:33:05You said he was only worth

00:33:062,000 bucks.

00:33:07You said a homeless guy

00:33:08off the street

00:33:08could replace him.

00:33:09A year ago,

00:33:10I begged him

00:33:11in the pouring rain

00:33:12just like this

00:33:13to pay the supplier

00:33:15what he owed.

00:33:16He rolled down

00:33:16his car window,

00:33:17blew smoke in my face

00:33:19and told me

00:33:20I didn't understand business.

00:33:22Percy,

00:33:22your biggest mistake

00:33:23wasn't greed.

00:33:24It was that you never

00:33:25learned to respect food.

00:33:26Someone who can make

00:33:27the finest fish

00:33:28smell like death

00:33:29has no place

00:33:30in a kitchen.

00:33:31You're really gonna

00:33:32just let me die?

00:33:33For old time's sake,

00:33:34since you want to be

00:33:35a line cook so bad,

00:33:37C-Miss just happens

00:33:38to be looking for someone

00:33:39to clean the bathrooms.

00:33:402,000 a month.

00:33:41And the only reason

00:33:42I'm even offering it to you

00:33:43is out of respect

00:33:44for you being my big brother.

00:33:49Mr. Grayson,

00:33:50I'm officially transferring

00:33:51my $5 million

00:33:51annual banquet booking

00:33:53to C-Miss Restaurant.

00:33:53Name your price.

00:33:54Just make sure that

00:33:55Oto Sushi

00:33:56shows up at my event.

00:33:57Grayson,

00:33:57this is a long-term

00:33:58letter of intent

00:33:58from the Manhattan

00:33:59Restaurant Association.

00:34:00We're willing to pay

00:34:01a 50% premium

00:34:02as long as C-Miss agrees

00:34:03to be our partner.

00:34:04Three hours ago,

00:34:05these same people

00:34:05watched Percy humiliate me

00:34:07in front of everyone.

00:34:07They laughed at me,

00:34:08a lowly line cook

00:34:09who didn't know his place.

00:34:10Now, they're willing

00:34:11to pay double

00:34:11just to beg me

00:34:12for a partnership.

00:34:13C-Miss will only sign

00:34:14with one partner

00:34:15in the next year.

00:34:16That spot,

00:34:17you'll have to fight

00:34:18for it yourselves.

00:34:19I have the strongest capital,

00:34:21that spot belongs to me!

00:34:22What can you offer

00:34:23besides money?

00:34:24I can provide

00:34:24the biggest advertising

00:34:25and sales channels!

00:34:26Get lost!

00:34:27This opportunity is mine!

00:34:32With the mayor's endorsement

00:34:34and the title

00:34:35of industry benchmark restaurant,

00:34:37C-Miss was splattered

00:34:38all over countless posters.

00:34:40Customers poured

00:34:41into C-Miss non-stop.

00:34:43Mia and I opened

00:34:45three more locations together.

00:34:46I never held back.

00:34:48I shared everything I knew.

00:34:49C-Miss will always stand

00:34:51for healthy,

00:34:52delicious food.

00:35:00All those prepayments

00:35:01that should have gone

00:35:02into Iron Anchor's account,

00:35:03they were now flooding

00:35:04into mine instead.

00:35:06Oh my God,

00:35:07I can't believe my eyes.

00:35:09Grayson,

00:35:10in less than half an hour,

00:35:11the prepayments

00:35:12have already topped

00:35:12three million.

00:35:14We made it!

00:35:15Grayson,

00:35:15you deserve this.

00:35:17The restaurant industry

00:35:18doesn't need some performer

00:35:19who only knows how to lie.

00:35:21It needs craftsmen like you.

00:35:23People with soul

00:35:24when it comes to food.

00:35:26This is the contract

00:35:27for government catering

00:35:28for the next year.

00:35:35Pleasure doing business with you.

00:35:36At that moment,

00:35:37Percy,

00:35:38his face caked with mud,

00:35:40pressed himself

00:35:41against the window

00:35:41like a ghost,

00:35:42watching me sign

00:35:44contract after contract,

00:35:45signing away

00:35:46millions of dollars.

00:35:47Furious,

00:35:48he tried to get in,

00:35:49but the security guard

00:35:50at the door

00:35:51shoved him back,

00:35:52sending him tumbling

00:35:53down the steps.

00:35:54Get out of my way!

00:35:55That bastard Grayson

00:35:56took everything from me!

00:35:58This was supposed

00:35:59to be mine!

00:36:00Move along!

00:36:00This is no place

00:36:01for a homeless guy!

00:36:03He was out there watching.

00:36:05I was in here sitting.

00:36:07That single pane of glass

00:36:09was the line

00:36:09between heaven and hell.

00:36:11He used to say

00:36:12that without him,

00:36:13I'd be begging

00:36:14for food in Chinatown.

00:36:15Now,

00:36:16he can't even get past

00:36:17the door of my restaurant.

00:36:20Grayson!

00:36:20You traitor!

00:36:26Percy was curled up

00:36:27next to a stinking dumpster.

00:36:28His thousand dollar

00:36:30tuxedo was caked

00:36:31with grime.

00:36:32He was too afraid

00:36:34to go home

00:36:34because all the partners

00:36:36he'd arrogantly

00:36:37signed with before

00:36:37were now turning on him

00:36:39after Iron Anchor

00:36:40got shut down.

00:36:41What awaited him

00:36:42was massive penalty fees

00:36:43and the fury

00:36:44of every single one

00:36:45of those partners.

00:36:51Hello?

00:36:53Boss,

00:36:53just give me

00:36:54a little more time.

00:36:55Time?

00:36:56Percy,

00:36:56your old frozen meat

00:36:58got my license revoked.

00:36:59According to the contract,

00:37:00you owe me triple the penalty.

00:37:02That's two million dollars.

00:37:03If I don't see that money

00:37:04by tomorrow morning,

00:37:05you can go feed the fish

00:37:06in the Hudson River.

00:37:13Percy,

00:37:14this is James

00:37:14from Seafood Logistics.

00:37:15That industry benchmark prize

00:37:17you promised

00:37:17was total bullshit.

00:37:18I want my shipping fees

00:37:19and the 500,000 penalty.

00:37:21Transfer it now.

00:37:22Otherwise,

00:37:22I'm sending your address

00:37:23to every creditor

00:37:24in Manhattan.

00:37:25Percy pinned

00:37:26all his remaining hope

00:37:27on live streaming.

00:37:29He begged his viewers

00:37:30to send him money

00:37:31to save Iron Anchor.

00:37:32He made a complete fool

00:37:33of himself

00:37:34like a stray dog

00:37:35losing every shred

00:37:36of dignity.

00:37:37He did pathetic stunts.

00:37:38He even fought

00:37:39homeless people for food.

00:37:40You felled us garbage

00:37:41for so long.

00:37:42What right does an animal

00:37:43like you have

00:37:43to ask for our forgiveness?

00:37:45Report him.

00:37:46Make him disappear for good.

00:37:47No, no, no.

00:37:49If I hadn't skimped

00:37:50on that 90,000,

00:37:51if I hadn't pushed him away,

00:37:52that six million

00:37:53would have been mine.

00:37:54The mayor's praise

00:37:55would have been mine too.

00:37:56He finally understood.

00:37:57Losing me

00:37:58wasn't just losing

00:37:59a line cook.

00:38:00It was losing

00:38:00his only brain

00:38:01and his last chance

00:38:02to be a decent human being.

00:38:04The live stream ban

00:38:05was the final straw

00:38:06that broke Percy.

00:38:07He looked at

00:38:08Sea Mist Restaurant

00:38:09glowing with lights

00:38:10and finally broke down

00:38:12sobbing.

00:38:14I was wrong.

00:38:16Grayson,

00:38:17I was really wrong.

00:38:23Time to pay up.

00:38:27Hear my love.

00:38:37I took Mia out

00:38:38for a nice meal

00:38:39because we were

00:38:40so poor last year.

00:38:42I couldn't even feed

00:38:43my pregnant wife

00:38:44decent food

00:38:45more than a few times.

00:38:47Mia, thank you

00:38:48for everything

00:38:50these past three years.

00:38:52Grayson,

00:38:53I feel like I'm dreaming.

00:38:54A month ago,

00:38:55we were stressing

00:38:56over $500 in rent.

00:38:58Dreams end,

00:38:59but these numbers

00:39:00don't lie.

00:39:01Three days ago,

00:39:02I sat here

00:39:02watching Percy

00:39:03throw money around

00:39:04like it was nothing.

00:39:05Now,

00:39:05Sea Mist's

00:39:06weekly revenue alone

00:39:07equals his entire

00:39:08net profit

00:39:08from last year.

00:39:10Ones,

00:39:10tens,

00:39:10hundreds,

00:39:11thousands,

00:39:11tens of thousands.

00:39:12Grayson,

00:39:13the prepayments

00:39:14and net profit,

00:39:14it's over 6 million?

00:39:15That's just the first week.

00:39:17With the mayor's endorsement,

00:39:18every big name

00:39:19in New York,

00:39:20politicians,

00:39:20and socialettes alike

00:39:21is lining up.

00:39:22We're already booked

00:39:23through Christmas next year.

00:39:24We're rich.

00:39:26We can give our child

00:39:27the best education.

00:39:28We never have to live

00:39:29under Percy's thumb again.

00:39:31I looked at Mia's

00:39:32excited face.

00:39:33It warmed my heart.

00:39:35To the future.

00:39:36Cheers.

00:39:38And Percy,

00:39:39at that very moment,

00:39:41he was huddled

00:39:42next to a dumpster,

00:39:43gnawling on someone

00:39:44else's disparted bread.

00:39:48I moved Mia

00:39:49out of that tiny

00:39:50rental apartment

00:39:51and bought the best

00:39:52estate in the city.

00:39:53Mr. Grayson,

00:39:54this is the most private

00:39:54estate in the entire city.

00:39:56It comes with its own

00:39:56helipad

00:39:57and a top of the

00:39:58security system.

00:39:59Do you like it?

00:40:00The sunlight here

00:40:01is beautiful.

00:40:01Perfect for our kid

00:40:02to run around

00:40:03on the grass someday.

00:40:04I never imagined

00:40:05I'd live in a place

00:40:05like this someday.

00:40:07Grayson,

00:40:07this is too expensive.

00:40:08Mia,

00:40:09you deserve the best.

00:40:10Just sign it.

00:40:10This will be

00:40:11our family's safe haven.

00:40:13Now,

00:40:13I bought the estate

00:40:14that Percy never even

00:40:16dared to dream

00:40:16of stepping foot in.

00:40:18And him?

00:40:19He's hiding

00:40:19in some dark corner

00:40:20running from the creditors.

00:40:22The soft opening

00:40:23of Seamist branch

00:40:24was a huge success.

00:40:25We can officially launch

00:40:26the expansion plan now.

00:40:28Yes,

00:40:28Mr. Grayson.

00:40:29The top 10 commercial districts

00:40:30are all fighting

00:40:31for us to set up there.

00:40:32The contracts are ready.

00:40:33Tell them this.

00:40:34Seamist has only

00:40:35one standard.

00:40:35The finest ingredients,

00:40:37absolute transparency.

00:40:38Percy failed

00:40:39because he looked

00:40:40at his customers

00:40:40and saw cash cows.

00:40:41I succeeded

00:40:42because I treat food

00:40:43like a religion.

00:40:45Expanding the business

00:40:46isn't about hoarding money.

00:40:48It's about letting

00:40:48more people around the world

00:40:49enjoy this food.

00:40:50Grayson,

00:40:51we're really starting

00:40:52a new life.

00:40:56The first stop

00:40:57for our expansion?

00:40:58That port Percy

00:40:59always wanted

00:41:00to take over for himself.

00:41:14Goodbye, Grayson.

00:41:15You made it.

00:41:17You goddamn piece of trash.

00:41:18You actually sold

00:41:19banned meat?

00:41:20Are you even human?

00:41:21Dad,

00:41:23I was just trying

00:41:24to make money.

00:41:25Who knew that

00:41:25ungrateful snake,

00:41:26Grayson,

00:41:26would turn on me?

00:41:27Turn on you?

00:41:28If it weren't for him,

00:41:30we'd all be in prison

00:41:31right now because of you.

00:41:32We have no place

00:41:33for a beast like you.

00:41:35I was tasting

00:41:36the finest wine

00:41:36in my estate.

00:41:37Percy was in that old house,

00:41:39taking the beating

00:41:39my parents should have

00:41:40given him long ago.

00:41:41He used to think

00:41:42he was the pride

00:41:43of the family.

00:41:43In truth,

00:41:44he was just a cowardly,

00:41:45rotten parasite.

00:41:46You're a monster!

00:41:47Get out!

00:41:48Stop hitting me!

00:41:49Grayson is loaded.

00:41:51He's got tens of millions now.

00:41:52Make him help me!

00:41:55You still have the nerve

00:41:56to mention him?

00:41:58When you paid him

00:41:59two thousand bucks,

00:42:00did you ever stop

00:42:00to think he was

00:42:01your little brother?

00:42:02Get out!

00:42:03Go be a line cook

00:42:04out on the streets!

00:42:12His nightmare

00:42:13had only just begun.

00:42:25What happened

00:42:26at Iron Anchor

00:42:27was a misunderstanding.

00:42:28I already switched

00:42:29to pliers.

00:42:30Just lift the band,

00:42:32please.

00:42:32Give me one more day.

00:42:34Mr. Percy,

00:42:36your restaurant

00:42:36is on the national

00:42:37blacklist now.

00:42:38Old frozen meat

00:42:39and formalide

00:42:40laden decor?

00:42:41Those search terms

00:42:42are number one

00:42:43on Google.

00:42:43Stop wasting our time.

00:42:45Get out and don't

00:42:45bring that stench

00:42:46into our office.

00:42:48Reputation takes

00:42:48a year to build

00:42:49and one plate

00:42:50of rotten

00:42:51Otoro sushi

00:42:52to destroy.

00:42:58Lisa!

00:43:00Where are you going?

00:43:01My cards are frozen.

00:43:02You have to help me.

00:43:03Help you?

00:43:04Percy?

00:43:05Right now,

00:43:05you're worse than

00:43:06a homeless guy

00:43:07on the street.

00:43:08These bottles

00:43:09are my appearance fee

00:43:10for putting on that

00:43:10show with you

00:43:11for a year.

00:43:12Don't contact me again.

00:43:13I don't want creditors

00:43:14thinking I'm your partner.

00:43:16The love he was

00:43:16so proud of?

00:43:20It ran faster

00:43:21than anyone

00:43:22the moment

00:43:22Iron Anchor

00:43:23got shut down.

00:43:24That's my car!

00:43:26That's my money!

00:43:33Watching Percy

00:43:34fall apart like this,

00:43:36I couldn't help

00:43:37but feel grateful

00:43:38that the woman

00:43:38by my side

00:43:39is Mia.

00:43:42With nowhere

00:43:43left to go,

00:43:44Percy stole

00:43:45mom and dad's

00:43:46retirement savings

00:43:47and borrowed

00:43:47a huge junk

00:43:48of money

00:43:48from the neighbors.

00:43:49My parents

00:43:50called me

00:43:51to handle it.

00:43:52I bought

00:43:52the most expensive

00:43:53estate in

00:43:54Manhattan,

00:43:54a place with

00:43:55a garden bigger

00:43:56than Percy's

00:43:57entire restaurant.

00:43:58I brought Mia

00:43:59back here

00:43:59to show my parents

00:44:00that their younger

00:44:01son,

00:44:01the one they

00:44:02called just

00:44:02a line cook,

00:44:03was the true

00:44:04pride of the family.

00:44:08Mom,

00:44:09just $20,000.

00:44:11Give it to me

00:44:12and I'll pay you

00:44:12back ten times

00:44:13when I'm back on top.

00:44:14You animal!

00:44:15You stole the money

00:44:16mom needs

00:44:16for her heart surgery

00:44:17and you scamp

00:44:18the neighbors.

00:44:19We can't even

00:44:19show our faces

00:44:20outside anymore.

00:44:20Are you going

00:44:21to drive us crazy?

00:44:22Grayson,

00:44:22you ungrateful snake.

00:44:24You live in a mansion

00:44:25where suits worth

00:44:26tens of thousands

00:44:26and you just watch

00:44:27your own brother die?

00:44:28Dad,

00:44:29mom,

00:44:29here are the keys

00:44:30to your new house,

00:44:31a villa I bought

00:44:32for you on the

00:44:32Upper East Side.

00:44:33It comes with

00:44:34the best in-home doctors.

00:44:35Percy,

00:44:36don't you dare

00:44:37use the word

00:44:37family to disgust me.

00:44:38The moment you

00:44:39stole their retirement

00:44:40money,

00:44:40you should have realized

00:44:41you're already

00:44:42out of this family.

00:44:46Money,

00:44:47that's mine!

00:44:49You owe me!

00:44:50This money is

00:44:51for the neighbors.

00:44:52As for you,

00:44:53Percy,

00:44:53you don't deserve

00:44:54to touch a single cent.

00:44:55I was wearing clothes

00:44:56he could never afford

00:44:57in his lifetime.

00:44:58I was standing

00:44:59at a height

00:44:59he would never reach

00:45:00and he was down

00:45:01on the ground

00:45:02like a dog

00:45:02finally realizing

00:45:03he had lost.

00:45:12Good morning,

00:45:12Mr. Grayson.

00:45:13Thank you for the

00:45:14jobs you've provided.

00:45:16Mr. Grayson,

00:45:17Seamist Restaurant

00:45:17is truly the pride

00:45:18of this entire street.

00:45:21A month ago,

00:45:22when I walked

00:45:22down this street,

00:45:23everyone looked at me

00:45:23like I was a joke.

00:45:24Now,

00:45:25I own half the storefronts

00:45:26on this block

00:45:27and the looks

00:45:28people give me

00:45:28have gone from

00:45:29contempt to respect.

00:45:31Suddenly,

00:45:32from the end

00:45:32of the street,

00:45:33a sharp scream

00:45:33cut through the air,

00:45:34followed by

00:45:35a sickening crunch.

00:45:37Two million

00:45:38in penalties!

00:45:39You promised

00:45:39to pay today!

00:45:40Where's the money?

00:45:45He's got money!

00:45:46That's my own brother!

00:45:47Go ask him!

00:45:48He could sneeze

00:45:49and have enough

00:45:49to pay you all off!

00:45:50A piece of trash

00:45:51like you!

00:45:52Dares to call him

00:45:52your brother!

00:45:53He just issued

00:45:54a statement in the paper!

00:45:54He's cutting all ties

00:45:55with you!

00:45:56No money, huh?

00:45:57Then we do it

00:45:57the old way.

00:45:58Let's start

00:45:58with two fingers.

00:46:05I took Mia's hand

00:46:06and stepped through

00:46:07the magnificent doors

00:46:08of Seamist Restaurant.

00:46:09Behind me,

00:46:10Percy's screams

00:46:11for help echoed

00:46:12as the debt cappers

00:46:12dragged him

00:46:13into the shadows.

00:46:13Please!

00:46:15Go tell those guys

00:46:16don't let any blood

00:46:17get spilled

00:46:18in front of my restaurant

00:46:19and make it quick.

00:46:20Yes, Mr. Grayson.

00:46:34From today on,

00:46:35Seamist is no longer

00:46:37just a restaurant.

00:46:37We're going to build

00:46:38the most legitimate

00:46:39food supply chain

00:46:40in this city.

00:46:41And the people

00:46:42on Surlate,

00:46:42if they're clean,

00:46:43no tricks,

00:46:44no dirt,

00:46:45I'll double their pay.

00:46:46Yes, Grayson!

00:46:48Grayson,

00:46:48congratulations

00:46:49on the new company.

00:46:50I left that loser

00:46:51Percy because I could

00:46:52see you were

00:46:53the real deal,

00:46:53the one who

00:46:54actually gets

00:46:54things done.

00:46:56Grayson,

00:46:56does Seamist

00:46:57need a PR director

00:46:58or maybe

00:46:59a personal assistant?

00:47:01I know everything

00:47:02you like,

00:47:02just like I knew

00:47:03everything about Percy.

00:47:04Lisa,

00:47:05you sure knew Percy.

00:47:06You knew exactly

00:47:07how to kick him

00:47:07when he was down

00:47:08and you know

00:47:09exactly how to

00:47:09crawl back

00:47:10like a parasite

00:47:11the second you

00:47:11smell money.

00:47:12Miss Lisa,

00:47:13Seamist doesn't

00:47:14need an assistant,

00:47:14but we are looking

00:47:15for a cleaner

00:47:16to take out the trash.

00:47:17But take a look

00:47:17at your clothes.

00:47:18I doubt you could

00:47:18even hold a rag,

00:47:19Stady.

00:47:20Get this piece

00:47:20of cheap,

00:47:21perfumed garbage

00:47:22out of here.

00:47:23From today on,

00:47:24if she shows up

00:47:24within a kilometer

00:47:25of sea mist,

00:47:26call the cops immediately.

00:47:28Grayson,

00:47:29don't get cocky!

00:47:30You were just

00:47:31a line cook too!

00:47:34I watched her

00:47:35pathetic retreat.

00:47:37In the eyes

00:47:37of opportunists

00:47:38like her,

00:47:39every spot next to me

00:47:40has a price tag.

00:47:41But they don't know.

00:47:43Mia lived with me

00:47:44in that leaky

00:47:44rental apartment.

00:47:46I know for certain,

00:47:47she is the one

00:47:48and only love my life.

00:47:50Why do you keep

00:47:51staring at me?

00:47:55Mia,

00:47:57I think I owe you

00:47:58a grand wedding.

00:48:12Mr. Grayson,

00:48:13do you take Mia

00:48:14to be your wife

00:48:15to cherish her

00:48:16in both poverty

00:48:17and wealth?

00:48:18I do.

00:48:21Today,

00:48:22all those wealthy socialettes

00:48:24who used to mock us

00:48:25as the poor couple

00:48:26are sitting right there

00:48:27in the audience,

00:48:28applauding us

00:48:29with the most

00:48:30flattering cheers.

00:48:32This is the coronation

00:48:33I promised my wife.

00:48:40Grayson,

00:48:41save me!

00:48:42The debt collure's

00:48:42broke my fingers.

00:48:43I'm in the alley

00:48:44right outside the church.

00:48:45Please,

00:48:45just give me 50,000

00:48:46one last time.

00:48:50Is it him?

00:48:59Someone who doesn't matter.

00:49:01He doesn't get to

00:49:02disturb our wedding.

00:49:03I'm not going to

00:49:04pile on someone

00:49:04already down.

00:49:06Not out of mercy.

00:49:07He's just not worth

00:49:08my time.

00:49:09But I'm not

00:49:10a pushover either.

00:49:11Kindness needs teeth

00:49:12or it means nothing.

00:49:22That was mine.

00:49:24That should have been mine.

00:49:26That six million dollars,

00:49:27the fame,

00:49:28the woman,

00:49:29all of it was mine.

00:49:31I bought the most

00:49:31expensive billboard

00:49:33in Times Square

00:49:33and played my wedding

00:49:35video on loop.

00:49:36Percy watched

00:49:37the screen in fury.

00:49:38Percy,

00:49:38your big shot brother

00:49:39already said he's

00:49:40stripping you

00:49:41of his last name.

00:49:42You don't even have

00:49:42a surname anymore now.

00:49:43He's got money.

00:49:44He's got billions.

00:49:45Go kill him.

00:49:46Kill him and all

00:49:47that money becomes mine.

00:49:48Kill him?

00:49:49Grayson is the mayor's

00:49:50right hand band now.

00:49:52He's got thousands

00:49:53of bodyguards.

00:49:54But you,

00:49:55your eyeballs

00:49:55are worth something.

00:49:56How about we take

00:49:57them as interest first?

00:50:01Grayson,

00:50:02you think you've won?

00:50:03Your woman's about

00:50:04to give birth, right?

00:50:05You're going to regret this.

00:50:07I'm going to destroy

00:50:08your happiness.

00:50:09Completely.

00:50:09I thought he would

00:50:11just wither away

00:50:11in his despair.

00:50:13I underestimated

00:50:14how deeply greed

00:50:15and jealousy

00:50:16can twist

00:50:17with a person's soul.

00:50:18A vicious plan

00:50:20was closing in on me.

00:50:29Grayson!

00:50:31You live in a mansion

00:50:32worth thousands

00:50:33of square feet

00:50:34and you're going to

00:50:35let me freeze

00:50:35to death out here?

00:50:36Grayson,

00:50:37you know,

00:50:37he is your own brother.

00:50:39Can't you give him

00:50:40one more chance?

00:50:40A year ago,

00:50:41Percy was throwing money

00:50:42around at Iron Ankle

00:50:43while Mom and Dad

00:50:44lived in that

00:50:45leaky old house.

00:50:46He never once

00:50:47mentioned family.

00:50:48Now that he's drowning,

00:50:49he's using our elderly

00:50:50parents to play

00:50:51the guilt card.

00:50:52That kind of thing

00:50:53just disgusts me

00:50:54even more than

00:50:55that plate of

00:50:55rotten otosushi.

00:51:01Brother,

00:51:02save me!

00:51:03Just transfer

00:51:04ten,

00:51:04ten percent

00:51:05of C-Myst

00:51:07shares to me

00:51:07and the creditors

00:51:08will leave me alone!

00:51:09Mom and Dad,

00:51:10please say something

00:51:11for me!

00:51:12Grayson,

00:51:13those deck cleapers

00:51:13are beating

00:51:14Percy half to death!

00:51:15He still has the

00:51:16strength to beg.

00:51:17He still has the

00:51:18strength to come here.

00:51:19He's perfectly capable

00:51:20of pulling himself

00:51:21out of this mess.

00:51:22You cold-blooded freak!

00:51:32You tried to hurt

00:51:33your own little

00:51:34brother?

00:51:36Mom, Dad,

00:51:37this is the son

00:51:38you wanted me to help.

00:51:39He never once

00:51:40thought of us

00:51:41as family.

00:51:44I never kick a man

00:51:45when he's down,

00:51:46but I will not

00:51:47repay evil

00:51:48with kindness.

00:51:50In that moment,

00:51:52his last family card

00:51:54was burned to ash

00:51:55by my own hand.

00:51:56You animal!

00:51:58Now we only have

00:51:59one son,

00:52:00Grayson!

00:52:00Don't you ever

00:52:01show your face

00:52:01in front of us again!

00:52:03No, no, no!

00:52:05Mom!

00:52:05Dad!

00:52:06No, no, no!

00:52:08Mom!

00:52:08Dad!

00:52:12That hopeless bastard.

00:52:15Grayson,

00:52:15it was our fault

00:52:16for asking you

00:52:17to help him.

00:52:19Don't worry

00:52:20about it, Mom.

00:52:21Mr. Grayson,

00:52:22it's bad.

00:52:23While your parents

00:52:23were asleep,

00:52:24a man claiming

00:52:25to be their son

00:52:25forced his way in

00:52:26and took their bags.

00:52:27That animal?

00:52:29Those bags had

00:52:30Mom and Dad's

00:52:30life savings!

00:52:31They're only

00:52:32retirement money!

00:52:35I thought Percy

00:52:36would just crawl

00:52:37into some corner

00:52:37and wait to die

00:52:38after being exposed.

00:52:40I underestimated

00:52:41how desperate

00:52:42a gambler

00:52:42with nothing left

00:52:43to loss

00:52:43can become.

00:52:50He didn't steal

00:52:50that money

00:52:51to pay off

00:52:51his debts.

00:52:52He stole it

00:52:53to feed his

00:52:53delusional dream

00:52:54of a comeback.

00:52:58Grayson,

00:52:58you found him.

00:53:00Percy has hooked up

00:53:01with an underground

00:53:01factory in Brooklyn.

00:53:02They produce illegal

00:53:03chemical flavorings

00:53:04that are highly

00:53:05addictive.

00:53:05He's trying to use

00:53:06those poisons

00:53:07to copy

00:53:07sea mist's taste

00:53:08and force his way

00:53:09back into the market.

00:53:10For a little money,

00:53:11he's willing to do

00:53:12something like this.

00:53:25Get the best medical

00:53:26team in the country.

00:53:2724-hour care

00:53:28for Mom and Dad.

00:53:29Do whatever it takes

00:53:30to keep them from

00:53:30finding out what

00:53:31that bastard Percy

00:53:32has done.

00:53:33As for Percy,

00:53:34I'm going to make

00:53:34him pay.

00:53:36Before,

00:53:37I just wanted to see

00:53:38him broken on the

00:53:39streets.

00:53:40Now,

00:53:40I'm going to

00:53:41take him out

00:53:42myself.

00:53:48Talk!

00:53:49What did that

00:53:50ungrateful bastard

00:53:51give you?

00:53:52How dare you

00:53:53call him the most

00:53:54conscientious chef

00:53:55in Manhattan

00:53:55on livestream?

00:53:56He was about

00:53:58to pass out

00:53:58from hunger

00:53:59and I gave him

00:53:59a burger.

00:54:00He's a good man.

00:54:02You're the real demon.

00:54:05A good man?

00:54:06I'll break the hand

00:54:07that fed him.

00:54:08You're the real demon.

00:54:14Percy, go ahead.

00:54:15Touch that hand

00:54:16and see what happens.

00:54:18Grayson!

00:54:19You think just because

00:54:20you're some big shot

00:54:21now, you're untouchable?

00:54:22This old man insulted me.

00:54:24I'll kill him!

00:54:28My hand!

00:54:30Grayson, you crazy bastard!

00:54:32That one's for the burger.

00:54:34My rule is simple.

00:54:36A kindness,

00:54:37I return it tenfold.

00:54:39A slight,

00:54:40I break the bone

00:54:41and from that

00:54:42delivered it.

00:54:46Sir,

00:54:47an apartment on the

00:54:48Upper East Side

00:54:49and a restaurant

00:54:49on Sorelli Street.

00:54:51They're yours now.

00:54:53Mr. Grayson,

00:54:56this is too much.

00:54:58This is nothing

00:54:59next to that burger

00:55:00you gave me back then.

00:55:01Percy lay there

00:55:02in the filthy water

00:55:03watching the trash

00:55:04he'd just been kicked

00:55:05suddenly become

00:55:06a property owner

00:55:07he'd only ever dreamt.

00:55:09Jealousy and pain

00:55:10drove the path

00:55:10and suddenly.

00:55:20While I sat atop

00:55:21Sea Mist restaurant

00:55:22enjoying the rich aroma

00:55:24of premium Wagyu,

00:55:25Percy was hiding

00:55:26in the stinking alleys

00:55:28of the slums

00:55:28trying to make

00:55:29his last desperate comeback.

00:55:35You see in this?

00:55:36This is what

00:55:37real charity looks like.

00:55:39Sea Mist charges

00:55:40thousands for

00:55:41one meal.

00:55:41That's robbery.

00:55:43My bliss box

00:55:44is only $9.99.

00:55:46$9.99.

00:55:48Get it while it lasts.

00:55:50You losers!

00:55:51Eat it or don't,

00:55:52I don't care.

00:55:53Once I save up enough

00:55:54to buy out the Sea Mist

00:55:55you could beg for it

00:55:56on your knees.

00:55:57Get lost!

00:55:58All of you haters,

00:55:59get lost!

00:56:01He had become

00:56:02a complete outcast.

00:56:03Despised by

00:56:04the entire internet,

00:56:05he was poisoning

00:56:06those poor people,

00:56:07using that nerve-destroying

00:56:08addictive flavoring

00:56:09to make money,

00:56:10dreaming of making

00:56:11a comeback.

00:56:12He was night.

00:56:13The foundation of business

00:56:14has never been

00:56:15violent addiction.

00:56:16It's absolute control

00:56:17over the global supply chain.

00:56:24Grayson,

00:56:25you came to laugh

00:56:26at me?

00:56:27Look!

00:56:28Look at all these people

00:56:29in line!

00:56:30My capital is doubling!

00:56:32Soon I'll be able

00:56:32to buy out

00:56:33your fake little restaurant!

00:56:35What have you got

00:56:35to fight me with?

00:56:37In Sea Mist Group's name,

00:56:39inform the Global Spice Association.

00:56:41From this moment on,

00:56:42whoever sells

00:56:43one gram of spice

00:56:44to any factory

00:56:44connected to Percy

00:56:45will be permanently erased

00:56:46from the global supply chain.

00:56:48Spice?

00:56:48I've got money,

00:56:49you idiot!

00:56:49I'll just buy some

00:56:50from Chinatown!

00:56:51Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:56:55What?

00:56:56Not just the big suppliers?

00:56:58Even the small workshops

00:56:59are canceling?

00:57:00They're demanding

00:57:01triple the refund?

00:57:02Without spice,

00:57:02I can't cover up

00:57:03the bitterness

00:57:03of all that

00:57:04expired rotten meat!

00:57:05Hello?

00:57:06Percy,

00:57:06without fire and salt?

00:57:08You can't even cook

00:57:09a plate of garbage.

00:57:11I cut off

00:57:11his last lifeline.

00:57:20Leo,

00:57:21you're the person

00:57:22Grayson trusts the most.

00:57:24Just put one drop

00:57:25of this vial

00:57:26into his tuna.

00:57:27This five million

00:57:28and shares

00:57:28in the new company.

00:57:30It's all yours.

00:57:32Five million.

00:57:33Gotta admit,

00:57:34that's tempting.

00:57:35Ha ha ha ha!

00:57:35Good!

00:57:36That arrogant bastard,

00:57:37Grayson,

00:57:38he never imagined

00:57:39he'd be betrayed

00:57:39by someone he saved.

00:57:42Percy,

00:57:43looks like you forgot.

00:57:43Leo was about

00:57:44to go under,

00:57:45and I'm the one

00:57:46who pulled him out.

00:57:47Your filthy money

00:57:48couldn't even buy back

00:57:49the life I saved

00:57:50for him back then.

00:57:51When I save someone,

00:57:53loyalty is in their blood.

00:57:55Percy's blood?

00:57:57It's pure,

00:57:58rotting greed.

00:57:59Trying to buy loyalty

00:58:00with filthy garbage

00:58:01like that

00:58:02is basically him

00:58:03executing whatever

00:58:04intelligence he had left.

00:58:07Tell me,

00:58:08if you drank that stuff

00:58:09you cooked up yourself,

00:58:10what do you think

00:58:11would happen?

00:58:12No.

00:58:14No.

00:58:15Grayson,

00:58:16I'm your own brother.

00:58:18Don't kill me.

00:58:19Kill you?

00:58:20That would dirty

00:58:21my basement.

00:58:25Send him back,

00:58:26crawling in the mud.

00:58:27That's the only thing

00:58:28that suits him.

00:58:29He took a step against me,

00:58:30so I'll make sure

00:58:31he never walks straight again.

00:58:33His dignity?

00:58:34I've stomped it

00:58:35straight into the gutter.

00:58:39starting today,

00:58:40the Sea Mist Group

00:58:41is acquiring

00:58:42every last shop

00:58:43on Surla Street.

00:58:44All of you

00:58:45who didn't follow Percy

00:58:46when he was doing

00:58:46his dirty work,

00:58:47you each receive

00:58:49a 5%

00:58:50in the original shares.

00:58:54I came back

00:58:55to rebuild,

00:58:56not to take revenge.

00:58:57I wanted these

00:58:58honest people to know,

00:59:00follow Grayson,

00:59:01and even a vegetable seller

00:59:02can stand tall

00:59:03and make money

00:59:04right here in Manhattan.

00:59:09Hurry up.

00:59:10Just give me some bread.

00:59:11I'm starving.

00:59:13Here.

00:59:13Mr. Grayson

00:59:14specifically asked

00:59:15for this

00:59:15for some special people.

00:59:17Three-day-old

00:59:18stale ends.

00:59:21I watched him.

00:59:24He once wanted

00:59:26to starve me.

00:59:27Now,

00:59:28he's only breathing

00:59:30because I choose

00:59:31to throw him scraps.

00:59:34Percy,

00:59:34you're not off

00:59:35the hook yet.

00:59:36That illegal factory's poison?

00:59:38Time for you

00:59:39to take a sip yourself.

00:59:46Everyone!

00:59:47Seen this restaurant

00:59:48on so-called

00:59:48natural ingredients

00:59:49are nothing but a lie

00:59:51for the rich!

00:59:52Today,

00:59:52I'm going to expose

00:59:53Grayson's crimes,

00:59:55monopolizing spices

00:59:56and driving up prices!

01:00:01Our tech-based food

01:00:02costs only 1%

01:00:03of sea mistis,

01:00:05but tastes

01:00:05exactly the same.

01:00:07Grayson's era

01:00:08is over!

01:00:10I saw Percy's

01:00:11little circus act

01:00:11on the screen

01:00:12and it did nothing to me.

01:00:13He's cozying up

01:00:14to those drug manufacturers

01:00:15who skate just inside the law

01:00:16trying to define great food

01:00:18with cheap-micle garbage.

01:00:19He doesn't understand.

01:00:20Real top-tier ingredients

01:00:21are a gift from the earth

01:00:22and the sun,

01:00:23not some molecular arrangement

01:00:24in a lab.

01:00:29Today,

01:00:30the sea mist group

01:00:31will roll out

01:00:31the global restaurant

01:00:32platinum standard.

01:00:34Any restaurant

01:00:35that does not meet

01:00:36the natural supply chain audit

01:00:37will be removed

01:00:38from the global procurement

01:00:39wild bist for good.

01:00:42Mr. Grayson's proposal

01:00:43is a beacon

01:00:44for the restaurant industry

01:00:46and we support it

01:00:48100%.

01:00:49While Percy was still

01:00:50in that dark little corner

01:00:51trying to smear my name,

01:00:53I was at the top

01:00:54of the food chain,

01:00:55rewriting the rules

01:00:56of the game.

01:00:58He thinks he's competing

01:00:59with me.

01:01:00The truth is,

01:01:01he's just swarming

01:01:02between my fingers.

01:01:04Ah!

01:01:05This is impossible!

01:01:06Why would the WTO

01:01:07stand up for a guy

01:01:08who used to be

01:01:09a line cook?

01:01:11Leo,

01:01:12tell the people

01:01:13next door

01:01:13that my press conference

01:01:14is over.

01:01:15Now,

01:01:17it's time

01:01:18to take out the trash.

01:01:26Grayson!

01:01:26This is illegal entry!

01:01:28My tech food

01:01:29is the future

01:01:30of the industry!

01:01:31The future

01:01:32of the industry?

01:01:33This chemical waste

01:01:34that makes people

01:01:35hallucinate?

01:01:36This bowl

01:01:37of plain

01:01:37kanji

01:01:38made simply

01:01:39with rice

01:01:39from the 40th

01:01:40parallel north

01:01:41and spring water

01:01:41from Crimea.

01:01:42Judges,

01:01:43please.

01:01:46This is

01:01:46the taste

01:01:47of a mother's cooking.

01:01:48This is the pure

01:01:49warmth of the earth.

01:01:50Today,

01:01:51I destroyed

01:01:51all his hypocrisy

01:01:52and arrogance

01:01:53with a single bowl

01:01:53of plain kanji.

01:01:54A true master chef

01:01:55doesn't need

01:01:56complex recipes.

01:01:57All he needs

01:01:58is a heart

01:01:58that respects nature.

01:01:59Percy's lab-made

01:02:00perfect flavor

01:02:01compared to the real deal.

01:02:02It's just a toxic fraud.

01:02:04This

01:02:04is the molecular formula

01:02:06for your synthetic meat.

01:02:08There's a high dose

01:02:09of neural blockers

01:02:10in this.

01:02:11Keep eating it

01:02:12and you'll go crazy.

01:02:14Percy,

01:02:14this isn't cooking.

01:02:15It's straight up murder!

01:02:19Murderer!

01:02:19Get out of Manhattan!

01:02:21Go to hell,

01:02:22you piece of trash!

01:02:23No,

01:02:24this isn't true!

01:02:25Grayson,

01:02:25you're setting me up!

01:02:26Percy,

01:02:27the moment you decided

01:02:27to poison the world

01:02:28with your drugs,

01:02:29the gates of hell

01:02:30were already open

01:02:30for you.

01:02:35Percy knelt on the ground

01:02:37covered in filth,

01:02:38clinging to his father's

01:02:39legs and wailing.

01:02:40His illegal lab

01:02:40had just been raided

01:02:41by the police.

01:02:42He was now a wanted criminal

01:02:43across the country.

01:02:45Dad, Mom,

01:02:46save me!

01:02:47Grayson is gonna kill me!

01:02:48He's gonna throw me

01:02:49into the meat grinder

01:02:50with all those creditors!

01:02:54Percy,

01:02:56you are still

01:02:57my eldest son

01:02:58after all.

01:03:03Grayson,

01:03:04could you maybe?

01:03:10Mom,

01:03:11even now,

01:03:11you still think

01:03:12he just made a mistake?

01:03:13The first one,

01:03:14this is the pension

01:03:15transfer authorization

01:03:16he personally signed

01:03:17while you were both

01:03:17in the hospital.

01:03:18The second one,

01:03:19this is the contract

01:03:20where he mortgaged

01:03:21this family home

01:03:21to underground loan sharks

01:03:23behind your backs.

01:03:27You animal!

01:03:28You even stole

01:03:29our funeral fund!

01:03:30Do you want the two of us

01:03:31to die on the street?

01:03:32Dad,

01:03:32I was trying to make

01:03:33a comeback!

01:03:33Once my chemical sauce

01:03:34sells,

01:03:34I could buy you

01:03:35a hundred penthouses!

01:03:36Go.

01:03:37Just go,

01:03:38Percy.

01:03:38I don't have a son

01:03:39like you anymore.

01:03:41Percy,

01:03:42the biggest mistake

01:03:43you ever made

01:03:44was treating

01:03:44everyone around you

01:03:46as sacrificial lambs

01:03:47for your own success.

01:03:49Starting today,

01:03:50you are out of this family.

01:03:53Percy,

01:03:54do you remember

01:03:54what you said?

01:03:55That one of us

01:03:56would take over the world

01:03:56and the other

01:03:57would fade into obscurity?

01:03:58I'm going to make sure

01:03:59you watch me

01:04:00take over the world.

01:04:00Grayson,

01:04:01you goddamn bastard!

01:04:06Grayson,

01:04:07you said you wanted

01:04:08to settle family out.

01:04:09Counts on this day,

01:04:11if you don't have

01:04:12solid evidence,

01:04:13you know the consequences.

01:04:14The Thorn family rule

01:04:16is pragmatism,

01:04:17but in dismantations,

01:04:19rules are just

01:04:20a cover-up

01:04:20for his greed.

01:04:21A year ago,

01:04:22Percy stood at

01:04:23a family gathering

01:04:24and mocked

01:04:24these hands of mine,

01:04:25saying they were only good

01:04:26for holding a kitchen knife.

01:04:28Today,

01:04:28I'm not just taking

01:04:29back my dignity,

01:04:30I'm tearing apart

01:04:30his lies with my own hands.

01:04:32He thought being family

01:04:33would save him,

01:04:34like a free pass.

01:04:35What he didn't know

01:04:36is that before absolute rules,

01:04:38every single betrayal

01:04:39comes with a price.

01:04:40First crime,

01:04:41exploitation.

01:04:42In the three years

01:04:43at Iron Anchor,

01:04:43he withheld $90,000

01:04:44of my front propyrkin payment

01:04:46and treated me

01:04:47like cheap liber.

01:04:48Second crime,

01:04:49poisoning.

01:04:49He colluded

01:04:50with chemical companies

01:04:51and added nerve-blocking agents

01:04:52to the ingredients.

01:04:53This is a direct assault

01:04:54on the hundred-year reputation.

01:04:55Third crime,

01:04:56attempted murder.

01:04:57He tried to attack

01:04:59and harm me.

01:05:01You animal!

01:05:02You dared to harm

01:05:03your own brother?

01:05:04Fourth crime,

01:05:05and the most unforgivable one,

01:05:07embezzlement.

01:05:08While our parents

01:05:09were in the hospital,

01:05:10he stole their pension

01:05:11and mortgaged

01:05:11the family home.

01:05:12He tried to push

01:05:13the very people

01:05:14who raised him

01:05:15into the Hudson River.

01:05:16No,

01:05:16that was all for business.

01:05:18Grayson,

01:05:18you're insane.

01:05:19Evidence is cold,

01:05:20but people's hearts are hot.

01:05:22The moment those four crimes

01:05:23came together,

01:05:23to these elders,

01:05:24he was no longer

01:05:25the hope of the family.

01:05:26He was a rotting sword

01:05:27that had to be cut out.

01:05:27You worthless bastard!

01:05:29What do you have to say

01:05:30for yourself?

01:05:37Elder,

01:05:37even if I was wrong,

01:05:38I'm the only business genius

01:05:40in this family.

01:05:41Grayson is just a cook.

01:05:42He can't protect

01:05:42the family's legacy.

01:05:43A business genius?

01:05:46Parsi,

01:05:46all your so-called management

01:05:48is just chasing

01:05:49internet fame

01:05:49while clinging

01:05:50to the dying

01:05:50Iron Anchor restaurant.

01:05:55This is CMIST Group's

01:05:56valuation.

01:05:58$100 billion.

01:06:00I don't just control

01:06:01one-third of the

01:06:01top-tier supply gen.

01:06:03I also have

01:06:04the industry medal

01:06:04personally awarded

01:06:05by the World Trade Organization.

01:06:07I wasn't showing them money,

01:06:08but absolute dominance.

01:06:09In this world,

01:06:10capital speaks,

01:06:11and the highest level

01:06:11of capital,

01:06:12it makes people kneel.

01:06:13Percy thought he was

01:06:14running a business.

01:06:15Me?

01:06:15I'm running an era.

01:06:16When I spread out

01:06:17these reports

01:06:18enough to buy

01:06:18half of New York,

01:06:19his pathetic little assets

01:06:20wouldn't even be enough

01:06:21to pay my taxes.

01:06:22One-

01:06:23$100 billion?

01:06:25Grayson,

01:06:25you did this

01:06:26in just one year?

01:06:27Please, Mr. Grayson,

01:06:28take your place

01:06:29as the head of the family.

01:06:31That's mine!

01:06:32That was supposed

01:06:33to be mine!

01:06:34Grayson,

01:06:34what right do you have,

01:06:35you lowly line cook?

01:06:37Percy,

01:06:37take a good look.

01:06:39In this world,

01:06:40the strong make the rules.

01:06:41The weak

01:06:43just wait to die.

01:06:44I stand at the summit,

01:06:45looking down at him.

01:06:47He once wanted me to kneel.

01:06:49Now,

01:06:49he wasn't even worthy

01:06:51to lift his head

01:06:51and look at me.

01:06:59Thorn Percy,

01:07:00from this moment on,

01:07:01you no longer carry

01:07:03the Thorn name.

01:07:04You are out of this family.

01:07:06No,

01:07:06you can't tear it!

01:07:07I am a Thorn!

01:07:08I have Thorn blood

01:07:09running through my veins!

01:07:10Without the family,

01:07:11the creditors would tear

01:07:12Percy to pieces.

01:07:13I knew that,

01:07:14and I didn't help them.

01:07:15Percy,

01:07:16the moment you stole

01:07:16mum and dad's pension,

01:07:17you had no blood relation left.

01:07:19I watched that page

01:07:20get consumed by the flames,

01:07:21turning to ash.

01:07:22In Thorn family tradition,

01:07:23being expelled

01:07:23means social death.

01:07:24From now on,

01:07:25he is no one's son,

01:07:26no one's brother.

01:07:26As a nameless nobody

01:07:27in the filthiest sewers,

01:07:28he will pay back

01:07:29every blood bet he owed.

01:07:30I want you to live

01:07:32as a man with no name.

01:07:35Grayson!

01:07:36You bastard!

01:07:38Without my $100,000,

01:07:40you'd still be

01:07:40a cockroach in the gutter!

01:07:42A pathetic,

01:07:43lowly line cook!

01:07:52From this day forward,

01:07:54the Thorn family

01:07:55has no Percy.

01:07:56I looked up at the skyscrapers

01:07:58in the distance.

01:08:06No money.

01:08:07Then pay with your life.

01:08:09The Thorn family

01:08:10has already thrown you

01:08:11away like garbage.

01:08:12Right now,

01:08:13you're worse than

01:08:14the rats this alley.

01:08:18Please,

01:08:19just give me one more day.

01:08:21Just one day.

01:08:22Grayson has money.

01:08:24He has hundreds of billions.

01:08:26He could pluck a hair

01:08:27off his body

01:08:28and it would be enough

01:08:29to pay you all back.

01:08:34In Manhattan,

01:08:35the highest form of rejection

01:08:36isn't insults.

01:08:37It's silence.

01:08:39Right now,

01:08:39I'm sitting within

01:08:40arm rage of him,

01:08:41but I can't even be bothered

01:08:42to lift a finger.

01:08:43The moment he stole

01:08:44our parents' last bit

01:08:45of survival money,

01:08:46he lost even the right

01:08:47to die inside my thoughts.

01:08:49Grayson!

01:08:50My good little brother!

01:08:51Save me!

01:08:52They want my organs!

01:08:53They're gonna chop me up

01:08:54and feed me to the fish!

01:08:56Give me a million!

01:08:56No, 500,000!

01:08:58Just that much!

01:09:15Percy used to say

01:09:16that money was the only

01:09:17true faith in this world.

01:09:19Since he loves money so much,

01:09:21I'll let him feel

01:09:21what it's like

01:09:22when that money

01:09:23becomes a pile of stones

01:09:24crushing his spine.

01:09:33Percy!

01:09:34This is the money

01:09:34you owe us!

01:09:35The price of our sweat!

01:09:36Our blood!

01:09:37Take these bills

01:09:38and crawl back

01:09:39to your hell!

01:09:47money!

01:09:48My money!

01:09:50Grayson, you finally

01:09:51gave me money!

01:09:53I win!

01:09:54Percy, take a good look.

01:09:56The thing you treat

01:09:57as your religion,

01:09:58to me,

01:09:59is just spare change

01:10:00for trash.

01:10:03I used to be a line cook

01:10:05worth only $2,000.

01:10:07Now I've made him understand.

01:10:09In front of absolute skill

01:10:10and absolute rules,

01:10:12all a greedy man

01:10:12will ever get

01:10:13is a pile of worthless paper.

01:10:26Listen up, everyone.

01:10:28From today on,

01:10:29there's only one standard

01:10:31on Manhattan's dining tables.

01:10:33The Sea Mist

01:10:34Ethical Chef Standard.

01:10:37Any chef who makes it

01:10:38onto Sea Mist's whitelist,

01:10:39I will personally vouch

01:10:40for their professional integrity.

01:10:42In return,

01:10:42Sea Mist guarantees

01:10:43their salary will double.

01:10:44But if anyone dares

01:10:45to put even one gram

01:10:46of dirty ingredients

01:10:47into their food,

01:10:48I promise you,

01:10:49they will never have the chance

01:10:50to pick up a pair

01:10:50of chopsticks again.

01:10:55Grayson,

01:10:55you're absolutely right.

01:10:57Now that you've laid down

01:10:58the rules,

01:10:58none of us would dare

01:10:59to think otherwise.

01:11:00We'll do everything

01:11:01according to Sea Mist rules.

01:11:12Joss,

01:11:13Grayson asked me

01:11:13to tell you something.

01:11:15Since you loved

01:11:16helping Percy handle

01:11:17all that rotten,

01:11:18dirty meat back in the day,

01:11:20you can take on

01:11:21the dirtiest,

01:11:22most disgusting jobs

01:11:23all by yourself

01:11:24for the rest of your life.

01:11:27Grayson!

01:11:29I really know

01:11:30I was wrong.

01:11:31I was just following orders.

01:11:34Please,

01:11:35let me go back

01:11:36to cutting vegetables.

01:11:37I don't even need money.

01:11:39Just let me back

01:11:40into a kitchen.

01:11:46Go back to cutting vegetables?

01:11:48Joss,

01:11:48you're way too naive.

01:11:49You've been blacklisted

01:11:50by the entire restaurant,

01:11:51industry.

01:11:52No!

01:12:04New York is just

01:12:05the beginning.

01:12:10Grayson,

01:12:11look how soundly

01:12:12the baby is sleeping.

01:12:14He's going to inherit

01:12:15everything I've built.

01:12:24Try this.

01:12:30I've given Mia

01:12:31the most precious love

01:12:32in the world

01:12:33because she was there

01:12:35for me when the road

01:12:35was darkest.

01:12:37This single piece

01:12:38of satimi

01:12:39is worth a fortune,

01:12:41but it still can't compare

01:12:42to the hug

01:12:43she gave me back then.

01:12:44That was mine.

01:12:45That should have been

01:12:47my spot.

01:12:48Leo,

01:12:50the flies outside

01:12:51are too noisy.

01:12:52Clean them up.

01:12:57On opposite sides

01:12:59of a fence,

01:13:00worlds apart.

01:13:12Grayson,

01:13:13I knew it.

01:13:14I knew you would

01:13:15come back.

01:13:16Professor,

01:13:17if it weren't for that

01:13:18hard bread you gave me

01:13:19back then,

01:13:19I wouldn't have made it

01:13:20until Sea Mist opened.

01:13:21On behalf of the

01:13:22Sea Mist group,

01:13:23I am donating

01:13:23ten billion dollars,

01:13:25not just for the school,

01:13:26but to honor

01:13:27Professor Smith's

01:13:27craftsmanship.

01:13:30Grayson,

01:13:31does the Research Institute

01:13:32need any logistic staff?

01:13:34We haven't been doing

01:13:34well these past few years.

01:13:36For old times' sake,

01:13:37I remember you.

01:13:38You said back then

01:13:39that I was only fit

01:13:39to clean your toilets.

01:13:41That was a joke.

01:13:42Grayson,

01:13:42we'd take any job,

01:13:44even a janitor

01:13:44at the Research Institute.

01:13:46Tell HR

01:13:47every single position

01:13:48at the Research Institute

01:13:49from security

01:13:49to cleaning staff

01:13:50to the guys

01:13:50mowing the lawn

01:13:51I have to interview

01:13:51them personally.

01:13:52I watched the fear

01:13:53and greed in their eyes

01:13:54and I felt nothing.

01:13:55Class,

01:13:56it used to be their weapon

01:13:57for bullying me.

01:13:58Now,

01:13:59it's my shackles

01:14:00for judging them.

01:14:06Sir,

01:14:07I used to run a restaurant.

01:14:08I know a lot

01:14:09about trash sorting.

01:14:10Please,

01:14:11just give me a job

01:14:12so I can eat.

01:14:13Alert.

01:14:13Blacklisted individual detected.

01:14:15Persing.

01:14:15Permission level

01:14:16permanently banned.

01:14:21Get lost!

01:14:22Every single

01:14:23business under sea mist,

01:14:24even our trash dump,

01:14:26won't take scum like you.

01:14:31Grayson!

01:14:33You can't do this to me!

01:14:35I'm your own brother!

01:14:37I bought up all the trash

01:14:38processing rights in Manhattan,

01:14:39not just for the monopoly,

01:14:41but to make sure certain scumbags

01:14:42have nowhere left to hide

01:14:44in this city.

01:14:45He once said I was a line cook

01:14:46who could be replaced

01:14:47by any homeless guy

01:14:48off the street.

01:14:49Now,

01:14:49he doesn't even qualify

01:14:51to be a sorter.

01:14:52The AI recognition system

01:14:53upgrade looks good.

01:14:55Give the tech department

01:14:56a bonus.

01:14:57The struggles of a clown

01:14:59like this aren't even worth

01:14:59a second of my anger anymore.

01:15:01His misery is just

01:15:02background noise

01:15:03on my way to the top.

01:15:17In the old era

01:15:18of the food industry,

01:15:19the exploiters believed

01:15:19that as long as they

01:15:20controlled the capital,

01:15:21they could run over skill

01:15:22and destroy a chef's soul.

01:15:23But the rise of sea mist

01:15:24is here to tell everyone

01:15:25in this room,

01:15:26I am rewriting the rules.

01:15:28The exploiters will eventually

01:15:28be abandoned by the times,

01:15:30but the craftsmen

01:15:30who protect the soul,

01:15:31they will be crowned kings.

01:15:32I wasn't just giving a speech.

01:15:34I was declaring war

01:15:35on this cold-blooded

01:15:36world of capital.

01:15:37A year ago,

01:15:38they were Percy's guests of honor,

01:15:40laughing as I got

01:15:40thrown out on my ass.

01:15:42Today,

01:15:42with sea mist standards,

01:15:44I've put a shackle

01:15:45called conscience

01:15:45around every single

01:15:46one of their necks.

01:15:48Grayson,

01:15:48sea mist group valuation

01:15:49can no longer be measured

01:15:50by money.

01:15:50What is your next goal?

01:15:51My goal is to make sure

01:15:52there is no more soil

01:15:53in this world

01:15:53for a cancer like Percy to grow.

01:15:54I saw it

01:15:55in the eyes of those tycoons

01:15:56who once seemed untouchable,

01:15:58a fear they've never felt before.

01:16:00The underdog's rise

01:16:01isn't a myth.

01:16:02It's the judgment

01:16:03I wrote with my own hands.

01:16:07Grayson!

01:16:08I'm cooperating.

01:16:09I'll tell you everything.

01:16:10Three months ago,

01:16:10that maniac Percy

01:16:11bribed one of our lab technicians.

01:16:13He took high concentration

01:16:14harmful chemicals.

01:16:15Make it clear.

01:16:17He wants to destroy

01:16:18sea mist's air.

01:16:19He's planning to put

01:16:19harmful substances

01:16:20in that batch

01:16:21of special supply milk powder.

01:16:22I thought stripping him

01:16:23of his name

01:16:24and letting him rot

01:16:24in the gutter

01:16:25like a rat

01:16:25was my final act of mercy.

01:16:27But I underestimated

01:16:28how vicious a mad dog can be.

01:16:30He dared to reach

01:16:31his filthy hands

01:16:32towards my child.

01:16:33Leo,

01:16:34go take care of something.

01:16:36Please give your orders,

01:16:37Mr. Grayson.

01:16:37Mobilize the global legal team.

01:16:39Yes, sir.

01:16:40I want Percy to spend

01:16:40the rest of his life

01:16:41in the coldest,

01:16:42darkest prison cell

01:16:43they can find.

01:16:43Tell the warden,

01:16:44I don't want him dead.

01:16:45I want him to accidentally

01:16:46live to be 100

01:16:47every single day

01:16:48surrounded by sickness

01:16:49and the torture

01:16:49of those creditors.

01:16:50Watching the glory

01:16:51of my sea mist restaurant

01:16:52shine in the sunlight.

01:16:53Blinding him from

01:16:54behind those bars.

01:16:55Since he doesn't want

01:16:56to be human,

01:16:57I'll send him to real hell.

01:16:58I want him to live

01:16:58in endless regret

01:16:59of dying flame

01:17:00in the depths of hell.

01:17:05Defendant Percy,

01:17:06on multiple counts

01:17:07including food safety violations,

01:17:09attempted harm,

01:17:10malicious tempering,

01:17:11and massive fraud,

01:17:12you are hereby sentenced

01:17:13to life in prison

01:17:14without parole.

01:17:15No!

01:17:15I won't accept this!

01:17:17Grayson, you devil!

01:17:18You manipulated everything!

01:17:20A year ago,

01:17:21I begged him in the rain

01:17:21to leave mom and dad

01:17:22some money

01:17:23for their medical bees.

01:17:24He tore my dignity

01:17:25to shreds in public

01:17:26and now he wants

01:17:26to talk about blood?

01:17:28The moment he reached

01:17:28for mom and dad's pension,

01:17:30the moment he reached

01:17:31for my baby's milk powder,

01:17:32he cut that vein

01:17:33with his own hands.

01:17:38Grayson,

01:17:38all that mess in Manhattan,

01:17:41it's finally over.

01:17:44We were blind back then.

01:17:45It was our fault.

01:17:47Mom,

01:17:48it's all in the past.

01:17:49I watched the relieved smiles

01:17:51on my parents' faces.

01:17:53Finally,

01:17:53they were free

01:17:54from that nightmare.

01:17:56Percy is counting lice

01:17:58in a cold prison cell.

01:18:00And my family,

01:18:02we're standing in the sunlight.

01:18:06He rewrote how this industry

01:18:08exploits people.

01:18:09He protected the soul

01:18:10of ingredients.

01:18:11Now let us welcome

01:18:12the world's top culinary leader,

01:18:14Grayson.

01:18:17Today,

01:18:17this trophy doesn't belong

01:18:19to me alone.

01:18:20It belongs to everyone.

01:18:21I'm not standing here

01:18:22to enjoy some empty fame.

01:18:23I'm here to issue

01:18:24the new CMIS decree.

01:18:25These people,

01:18:26they were once exploited

01:18:27by Percy at Iron Locker.

01:18:28I announced that CMIS Group

01:18:29will set up a $1 billion

01:18:30support fund.

01:18:31Every front-line employee

01:18:32who suffered exploitation,

01:18:33as long as you pass

01:18:34the assessment,

01:18:35CMIS will grant you

01:18:36the right to open

01:18:37a franchise free match.

01:18:39This is what a real

01:18:40slap in the face looks like.

01:18:41I'm going to make

01:18:42Percy watch on TV.

01:18:44All those people

01:18:44who called homeless bums

01:18:46are becoming millionaires

01:18:47under my wing.

01:18:48And him?

01:18:48He can't even afford

01:18:49a roll of toilet paper.

01:18:53Grayson,

01:18:54two-thirds of the

01:18:54Michelin restaurants

01:18:55around the world

01:18:56have already applied

01:18:56to join the CMIS

01:18:57certification standard.

01:19:02Then let them

01:19:03wait in line.

01:19:04We make the rules.

01:19:07One year ago,

01:19:08I was at the other end

01:19:09of this city

01:19:09holding only $10,000

01:19:10the money I'd bled for.

01:19:12Now,

01:19:12this building beneath my feet,

01:19:13plus thousands of branches

01:19:14around the world,

01:19:15my net worth

01:19:16has exceeded $100 billion.

01:19:17And this Manhattan

01:19:18reeking of money,

01:19:19I use the most humble skills

01:19:21to level every injustice.

01:19:23What are you thinking about?

01:19:27I'm thinking

01:19:28that poor kid

01:19:29who rented that $500 dump

01:19:31had pretty good taste.

01:19:34That was the best

01:19:35investment in the world.

01:19:36The name Percy

01:19:37has been burned to ash

01:19:38from the family tree

01:19:39and erased

01:19:39from this city's history.

01:19:41From now on,

01:19:41no more iron anchor

01:19:42in Manhattan,

01:19:43only CMISD.

01:19:44Survival of the fittest

01:19:45was the old rule.

01:19:46My rule?

01:19:46Let the ones with soul

01:19:47rise to the top.

01:19:48I'm Gracie.

01:19:49The CMISD era

01:19:50never ends.

01:20:24The CMISD era

01:20:24never ends.
