00:00:00I am Grayson. My brother and I started a restaurant a year ago. Business was crazy.
00:00:04We 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
00:00:15my brother. I took it with a smile. Then I turned around and leased that run-down filthy restaurant
00:00:23right across from his. I started my own place. The second, my restaurant overtook Iron Anchor.
00:00:30Percy snapped. He smashed his own car hood. He just couldn't wrap his head around it.
00:00:35How did his useless younger brother's restaurant become the most popular place in town?
00:00:41Percy, I've got an opening for a prep cook. Two thousand dollars a month.
00:00:50Business blew up this year. We cleared six mil. Here's your share.
00:00:58I took it and counted. Only a hundred thousand. Not even a fraction of the restaurant's profit.
00:01:03I put up the money for this restaurant. I did all the live streams and marketing.
00:01:08You're just a line cook. Any bum off the street could do your job. If you weren't my brother,
00:01:13you 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
00:01:44I'm calling the cops. Sorry, sorry. I'm leaving right now. And Percy, he just gets a fancy hairstyle
00:01:52and camps out in front of his live stream. Five people, always the same five, making a fool of
00:01:58himself over and over again. I put in at least half the work for that six million. And that
00:02:03hundred thousand Percy gave me. Ninety thousand of it was just him paying me back for the purchasing
00:02:08money. I'd already fronted all year, but I still took the money. Thanks. I turned, pushed the door
00:02:14open, and then Percy called out to me. The citywide benchmark judging is in three days. The mayor is
00:02:19coming to Iron Anchor to try the fatty tuna sushi. Your sashimi is the most popular with customers.
00:02:24So make sure you have a blue fit tuna ready and cut the belly part well.
00:02:31Okay. See you in three days. Good boy. I didn't say a word. Percy never thought I'd be that easy
00:02:37to
00:02:37brush off. And me. I stood in front of that failed restaurant right across the street. The one that
00:02:50couldn't keep up with Iron Anchor and went belly up. Everyone knew it was filthy, broken, a total mess.
00:02:55Percy 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. Nobody
00:03:07survives across from Iron Anchor. You absolutely sure? I'm sure. I walked out after signing the papers.
00:03:13And across the street, Iron Anchor was already partying, getting hyped for the mayor's big arrival.
00:03:18What Percy didn't realize? That award in three days. It was about to turn into his worst nightmare.
00:03:26This rundown shop was hidden away. Filthy. Pitch. Dark. Thick layers of grease covered everything.
00:03:33I didn't complain. Though, inside, I was actually pumped.
00:03:39Percy quickly realized someone had rented that dump across the street again. He got out of his fancy
00:03:44car, saw it was me, and 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? Don't you have
00:04:00any idea how good a life $100,000 could have bought you? I ignored him. Percy started wandering around
00:04:05the restaurant on his own. Even pulled out his phone and went live, making exaggerated faces at
00:04:11the camera. Look at this, folks. Thick, nasty grease all over the tables. This place is so disgusting,
00:04:17I swear even a rat wouldn't come near it. Then he put his arm around my shoulder and struck a
00:04:23friendly
00:04:23pose for the camera. Grayson, I'm your older brother. I have to take care of you. You're always welcome
00:04:30back at Iron Archer. I did fill your old spot for half the pay, but you know how replaceable that
00:04:35kind of job is. After humiliating me, Percy left the restaurant, satisfied. He had to get ready for
00:04:42the mayor's visit. He had his workers turn the place into a luxurious palace. But one thing he would
00:04:47never understand, a restaurant's true essence is the food. And me, I stayed up late every night,
00:04:53cleaning the restaurant. It was already three in the morning when I got home. The light was
00:05:00still on. I caught my reflection in the mirror by the door, covered in dirt. My face exhausted.
00:05:05I panicked. I didn't want my family to worry, but I knew I had to face it eventually.
00:05:13My wife Mia looked at me with concern. Honey, what happened? Why are you so late?
00:05:19Percy asked me to clean the kitchen. I didn't have time to wash up.
00:05:25Mia looked uneasy. She took my hand and pulled me down onto the sofa.
00:05:30I saw the news. The mayor is going to personally review Iron Archer. The restaurant you and Percy
00:05:37opened is really making money, big enough to even get the mayor's attention. Did he give you any of it?
00:05:43Sure. He gave me a hundred grand. Only a hundred grand? The news said the place cleared six million.
00:05:51That's not fair. You put your whole heart into this restaurant for an entire year.
00:05:56At least half of the credit is yours. How could he do this to you?
00:06:01Mia, calm down.
00:06:03Percy is an idiot with his head stuck up in the clouds. Why are you still working for him?
00:06:10I'm opening my own restaurant.
00:06:14I support whatever decision you make.
00:06:20Here's 20 grand. Go all in, Grayson. The baby and I will be just fine.
00:06:27I won't let you down. I swear.
00:06:30The industry benchmark restaurant awards were in two days. That night, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:06:36What if I let Nia down? The dirty, pitch black image of Sea Mist restaurant kept flashing through
00:06:41my mind. I wasn't sure if the changes I made would be enough to pass the inspection. I started doubting
00:06:47whether going solo was the right move or just a stupid decision made out of anger. I picked up the
00:06:52little notebook I've been keeping for years and sat down at the desk. It is filled with all kinds of
00:06:57customer info and preferences. I've recorded including the mayor's. I once sat in a high-end restaurant
00:07:02and carefully watched how he ate. What he left on his plate. This notebook gives me the confidence
00:07:08that comes from experience. Then suddenly, my phone rang.
00:07:14What did you say? Sea Mist restaurant? Pass the qualification inspection?
00:07:20This is the best Christmas gift I've ever received.
00:07:25With the license in hand, I'm halfway there. I reached out to the supplier I'd worked so hard to
00:07:29win 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 livestream 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. The mayor's
00:08:09coming to Iron Anchor in person tomorrow. My dear little brother, I'm your only shot at rubbing
00:08:14elbows 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
00:08:29to him in any way. Tomorrow was going to be his day to shine. And at an event like this,
00:08:33his little
00:08:34brother, the one foolish enough to open a restaurant right across from Iron Anchor, would be the perfect
00:08:38person to compare himself to. I'll be there on time. Here's 10 bucks. Go park my car for me.
00:08:51Everyone believed Iron Anchor would definitely become the industry benchmark. Percy was so sure
00:08:56of it that he boasted and signed a whole year's worth of orders for the future. But he overlooked me,
00:09:01a brother he'd never once seen as a competitor. Insignificant, obedient, beneath notice. When I got
00:09:08home, I told Mia that I was going to Percy's restaurant for the awards event. I could see 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. Mia, I've already
00:09:25decided to go. If he tries to embarrass me, I'll forget we're brothers and I'll take his place for
00:09:31good. 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 he saw Mia and
00:09:51me 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 ten
00:10:23lifetimes. You really should just stick with your brother. That way you can at least lap up some of
00:10:28the 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.
00:11:08What are you doing here? I'd still be able to hand out my business card.
00:11:10Everyone looked embarrassed. No one took it.
00:11:15Grayson, are you seriously expecting these suppliers to visit your dump? Don't be ridiculous.
00:11:20I smiled and shook my head. I swear, one day they'll be begging to work with me.
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, but he doesn't understand
00:11:49his customers. Every single one of them has a picky palate. Without my notebook that records every
00:11:54customer'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, but because
00:12:03they were so eager to flatter Percy, they chose to ignore it. The mayor's personal inspection is the
00:12:09highest honor in the industry. Percy kept bragging about how successful his restaurant had become
00:12:14in just one year. How much money he'd made. Mia was so upset, she couldn't even eat. The anger in
00:12:19her eyes could have 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. I mean, you don't have much
00:12:32skill, just good for a few simple little jobs. But you are my little brother after all. Percy, you're such
00:12:39a
00:12:39good man. Your brother has a death wish opening a restaurant right across from you, and you're still
00:12:45looking out for him. Of course. What does a line cook know about running a restaurant? Without Percy, he's
00:12:54nothing. I was furious. All anyone could see was Percy's winning globe. No one saw the one who'd done
00:13:02all the work behind the scenes. Percy was soaking up the praise, laughing and clinking glasses with
00:13:07those guests. And that was the moment he completely cut off the last bit of mercy I had left for
00:13:11him.
00:13:12The industry benchmark awarded by the mayor can only be my sea mist restaurant. I raised my glass,
00:13:17a calm smile on my face. You're alright. Everything I do I learn from Percy, my respected big brother.
00:13:26The mayor was arriving any minute. Percy told me to go to the kitchen and get ready to cut the
00:13:31bluefin tuna. Grayson, get your ass to the kitchen and help out. Even though you had the nerve to leave
00:13:37me, I still invited you to this important event. And the only reason is because you're my brother.
00:13:43Percy finished talking and went off to greet the mayor.
00:13:51I looked at the mayor. 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. Percy never
00:14:03understood how important fresh ingredients are to a restaurant. And now that top tier supplier belongs to
00:14:11me. The one who took over supplying Iron Anchor? Obviously just some crooked merchant faking it.
00:14:21This tuna smells really weird.
00:14:24I tried to warn them about quality control, but Percy never listened to a word I said.
00:14:32Grayson, step aside.
00:14:35The new guy here can actually handle a knife.
00:14:42Grayson, you just stand aside and watch.
00:14:44Even for a line cook, you've still got a lot to learn.
00:14:47Percy didn't care about my skills.
00:14:50He asked me to come to the kitchen only to humiliate me with the new hire, to prove I was
00:14:56good for nothing.
00:14:58But he had no idea how complicated Blue Fit Tuna is.
00:15:02Without real knife skills, you can't handle it properly. Especially a piece of cheap, low-quality tuna like this.
00:15:11Percy, you're going to regret everything you've done today.
00:15:14I swear it.
00:15:16I'm just trying to make my little brother better.
00:15:18Otherwise, how is he going to support you and the baby in your belly?
00:15:21With that failing restaurant across the street?
00:15:27I'll learn from him.
00:15:29After today, one of us will be famous and the other will be a nobody.
00:15:36Grayson, I really feel sorry for you.
00:15:40That 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.
00:15:50Joss thought I was actually learning, and he even took the time to explain things to me.
00:15:54I smiled.
00:15:55With such lousy technique, that Blue Fied Tuna was going to end up as nothing but a pile of ruined
00:16:00meat in his hands.
00:16:01And the mayor.
00:16:03He 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 Blue Fied Tuna was being delivered to Sea Mist Restaurant,
00:16:30where the expensive head chef I hired was handling the premium tuna according to the methods written in my notebook.
00:16:36My dear fans, it's showtime. 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.
00:16:57Never 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, feel free to go try
00:17:11his chemical waste.
00:17:14Percy, you're too soft.
00:17:16Having that guy across the street is polluting our whole neighborhood.
00:17:20Mr. Mayor, here's my card.
00:17:22I'm good at making otoyu sushi.
00:17:24Are you crazy?
00:17:26A little place that can't even fit two people in the bathroom and you think you can hand the mayor
00:17:30your business card?
00:17:31My restaurant is spotless and my ingredients are the best.
00:17:36I don't think square footage determines quality.
00:17:39Grayson, stop embarrassing yourself here.
00:17:45Young man, you have something those greedy businessmen don't.
00:17:49You're calm. 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
00:19:27and was already on its way.
00:19:30We are about to serve the very first dish from C-Mist Restaurant.
00:19:36Everyone, stay sharp.
00:19:39Yes!
00:19:40Yes!
00:19:41Yes!
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.
00:20:02Percy!
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, Mr. Mayor, let me explain.
00:20:21This is an oxidation reaction, an advanced aging process for premium tuna.
00:20:25Advanced aging?
00:20:26No, he just served the mayor chief.
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!
00:20:43No!
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!
00:20:48Mr. 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 city-wide live stream, he was forced to swallow that rotten meat like a pathetic
00:21:02stray 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, the 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.
00:21:30The sushi is fine.
00:21:31I 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.
00:21:42Soon, Percy showed all the signs.
00:21:45The client who had signed next year's contract with him actually wanted to go help him.
00:21:51Dammit!
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 over.
00:22:15A stench of formaldehyde mixed with rotting blood hit everyone in the face.
00:22:19Cardboard boxes piled up like metals, their outer layers covered in mold.
00:22:23The smell is absolutely disgusting!
00:22:25Just thinking about the food I ate makes me want to strangle Percy with my bare hand!
00:22:28Percy was dragged to the storage door like a filthy rag.
00:22:31The mayor pointed angrily at the inside of the back room.
00:22:34This is the best ingredient warehouse in all of New York?
00:22:36Percy, you better explain this now!
00:22:40Percy scrambled, saying it was all the supplier's fault that he was a victim too.
00:22:44Tears streamed down his face as he got all emotional.
00:22:46At first, some people actually believed him.
00:22:48After all, Iron Anchor's reputation had been perfect.
00:22:50That 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?!
00:22:57Banished.
00:22:58That's what it was.
00:22:58The money went to the cars.
00:22:59The 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,
00:23:28they would lose countless future business deals.
00:23:30Percy, you animal!
00:23:31You want to serve trash?
00:23:32Fine, but 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,
00:23:39they were his loyal supporters.
00:23:40The moment he fell,
00:23:41everyone wanted to kick him.
00:23:42While he was down,
00:23:43Mia 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.
00:23:50And if I timed it right,
00:23:51my chef should be here any second.
00:23:57Percy panicked.
00:23:58Iron Anchor was facing closure.
00:24:00And me,
00:24:01his worthless little brother,
00:24:02bringing in a chef
00:24:03with the very same cut of fish.
00:24:04Grayson,
00:24:05what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:24:07Mr. Mayor,
00:24:08before you give up on this street,
00:24:10please give real Surla Street Cuisine one chance.
00:24:12Percy pulled himself up off the floor
00:24:14and stormed over to me,
00:24:15furious.
00:24:16That garbage from your $500 dump
00:24:18has 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
00:24:27right across the face.
00:24:28Wipe that disgusting superior look off your face,
00:24:31you arrogant jerk!
00:24:32Three minutes ago,
00:24:33you were serving the mayor garbage.
00:24:35Whatever my husband has in that box
00:24:37is worth more than you
00:24:37and your whole restaurant ever were!
00:24:39You dare put your hands on me?
00:24:41You shameless bitch!
00:24:42The 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
00:24:50by a man with some composure.
00:24:52See,
00:24:53Missed Restaurant.
00:24:53Please 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
00:25:19about my food.
00:25:20Because of this turnaround,
00:25:21the 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.
00:25:39That is the instinctive reaction
00:25:41of a true gourmet
00:25:42in the presence of something
00:25:44transcendent.
00:25:45Percy always thought
00:25:46waving his checkbook around on live stream
00:25:48would let him control everything.
00:25:49But he never knew.
00:25:51Some ingredients can't be bought.
00:25:52They choose who deserves them.
00:25:56My God.
00:25:57The sweetness.
00:25:58The way this fat just
00:25:59dissolves.
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.
00:26:05This year's industry benchmark restaurant
00:26:08is not this foul-smelling iron anchor.
00:26:11It goes to...
00:26:17Wait.
00:26:18C-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
00:26:25and safety standards.
00:26:26Percy looked at me
00:26:27with that smug expression
00:26:28like he'd finally cornered the clown.
00:26:30Too bad.
00:26:31This time,
00:26:32the joke was on him.
00:26:33Save the pity, Grayson.
00:26:34I know you tried really hard
00:26:36to steal first place from me.
00:26:37Too bad.
00:26:39Trying isn't enough.
00:26:40You'll never surpass me,
00:26:41little brother.
00:26:42Mr. Mayor,
00:26:44it would be my honor
00:26:45to lead the way
00:26:46and show everyone
00:26:47this garbage
00:26:49Dim Grayson calls a restaurant.
00:26:51That place has been closed for ages.
00:26:53I heard the last owner
00:26:54was so bitter.
00:26:55He poured cooking oil
00:26:56all over the floors
00:26:57on his way out.
00:26:57You can't even walk in there.
00:26:59That's right.
00:26:59And he left all kinds
00:27:00of expired food in there, too.
00:27:02It's probably a full-blown
00:27:03rat kingdom by now.
00:27:04What right does a dump like that
00:27:05have 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
00:27:12Sea Mist Restaurant,
00:27:13I invite you all
00:27:14to come see it for yourselves.
00:27:16You idiot.
00:27:17Get ready to watch
00:27:18your precious restaurant
00:27:19get shut down.
00:27:21My dear fans,
00:27:22I'm about to show you
00:27:23the most chaotic,
00:27:25filthiest garbage dump
00:27:27on Surla Street.
00:27:28You cannot imagine
00:27:29how absolutely disgusting
00:27:32that place is.
00:27:35Percy,
00:27:36lying has consequences.
00:27:37It's totally fake.
00:27:39I guarantee you,
00:27:39behind this door,
00:27:40it's nothing but trash and stink.
00:27:42Damien,
00:27:43just wait and see.
00:27:44Percy's smug-smart
00:27:45kept growing,
00:27:46but all of that
00:27:46was about to come
00:27:47to 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
00:28:00has completely changed.
00:28:01It's so clean and tidy.
00:28:03Way more pleasant
00:28:04to look at
00:28:05than Iron Anchor's
00:28:06tacky, flashy decorations.
00:28:12Grayson,
00:28:13your taste is just
00:28:14as impressive
00:28:15as your food.
00:28:22Man,
00:28:23this place is cleaner
00:28:24than an operating room.
00:28:25I worked around the clock,
00:28:26kneeling on that filthy floor,
00:28:28scrubbing every single crack
00:28:29with a brush.
00:28:30Percy spent his money
00:28:31on those gaudy chandeliers
00:28:32that blind you.
00:28:33I spent mine
00:28:34on every little detail
00:28:35you can touch.
00:28:36This is all just for show!
00:28:37You can fake the decor,
00:28:39but you can't fake
00:28:40the ingredients!
00:28:42Grayson,
00:28:43you're broke!
00:28:44Your monthly rent
00:28:45is 500 bucks.
00:28:46How can you afford
00:28:47pop-grade blue-fit tuna?
00:28:49I bet that piece
00:28:50he just fed you
00:28:51was the only decent
00:28:51one 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
00:29:10in all of New York
00:29:11can get their hands on these.
00:29:15Percy,
00:29:16take a good look.
00:29:17This is what you call
00:29:18garbage.
00:29:19No!
00:29:20You must have injected
00:29:20poison into these rotten fish!
00:29:22Sprayed them with chemicals!
00:29:23Who the hell
00:29:24is insulting my fish?
00:29:29You are...
00:29:30I worked with Iron Anchor
00:29:31for a whole year.
00:29:33Not once did you bother
00:29:34to remember my name.
00:29:35Percy,
00:29:35you're an absolute idiot.
00:29:39You're Iron Anchor's
00:29:40biggest supplier
00:29:41from this past year.
00:29:42You traitor!
00:29:43You're the traitor!
00:29:44And premium ingredients
00:29:45should go to people
00:29:46who actually appreciate them.
00:29:49Mr. Mayor,
00:29:50I'm the largest seafood
00:29:51distributor in California.
00:29:52I hereby certify
00:29:54that all ingredients
00:29:55used by Sea Mist Restaurant
00:29:56are exclusively supplied
00:29:57through my special channel
00:29:58with the highest
00:29:59A-level safety rating.
00:30:01Mr. Grayson
00:30:02is the most knowledgeable person
00:30:04about ingredients
00:30:04I've ever met.
00:30:05That's why I ended
00:30:06all my contracts
00:30:07with Iron Anchor
00:30:08for him.
00:30:09Are you insane?
00:30:11I give you millions
00:30:12of dollars a year!
00:30:13What about him?
00:30:14All he got was
00:30:14the lousy hundred grand
00:30:15I threw at him!
00:30:16After lashing out
00:30:17at the supplier,
00:30:18Percy turned his rage
00:30:20back on me.
00:30:20Grayson!
00:30:21You ungrateful snake!
00:30:23You took the hundred grand
00:30:25I gave you
00:30:25and used it to steal
00:30:27my supplier
00:30:27and become my enemy?
00:30:28Don't you have any
00:30:29family loyalty at all?
00:30:31Percy.
00:30:35Out of that hundred grand
00:30:36ninety thousand
00:30:37was purchasing money
00:30:38I fronted for you.
00:30:41The 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
00:30:49buy my dignity.
00:30:50I'm taking it back
00:30:51with 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
00:31:00finally remembering
00:31:01how hard I worked
00:31:02a year ago
00:31:03visiting supplier
00:31:04after supplier
00:31:04screening through
00:31:05thousands of them
00:31:06to find this one.
00:31:07Percy wanted to
00:31:08keep arguing
00:31:09but fate wasn't
00:31:10going to give him
00:31:11any more chances.
00:31:12Mr. Mayor
00:31:13it's not just
00:31:14the ingredients.
00:31:15The entire interior
00:31:15of Iron Anchor
00:31:16is built with
00:31:16the cheapest
00:31:17most flammable
00:31:18formalhyde laden boards
00:31:18just painted over
00:31:19with a layer of gold.
00:31:20Iron Anchor
00:31:20is 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.
00:31:29Percy, get out
00:31:31of the restaurant industry.
00:31:33Mr. Mayor
00:31:34I was wrong.
00:31:36I just wanted
00:31:36the restaurant
00:31:37to look better.
00:31:38You risked
00:31:39people's lives
00:31:40just to look good?
00:31:41Percy's tears
00:31:42rolled down
00:31:42his fake
00:31:43lying face.
00:31:44He used to throw
00:31:45money in front of me
00:31:46and call me
00:31:47a country bumpin'
00:31:48who'd never seen
00:31:48the world.
00:31:49And now
00:31:50that live streaming
00:31:51empire he'd so
00:31:52carefully built
00:31:52was collapsing
00:31:54inch by inch
00:31:54in front of
00:31:55a global audience.
00:31:56I hereby declare
00:31:57Sea Mist Restaurant
00:31:59the industry
00:32:00benchmark restaurant
00:32:02for this year.
00:32:03Effective immediately
00:32:04Iron Anchor's
00:32:06business license
00:32:07is permanently
00:32:08revoked.
00:32:09All assets
00:32:10are to be seized.
00:32:11Percy is under
00:32:12official investigation
00:32:13for food safety
00:32:14crimes
00:32:15and commercial
00:32:16fraud.
00:32:17Now
00:32:18throw this
00:32:19cockroach
00:32:19out of here.
00:32:27Grayson!
00:32:29Save me!
00:32:30You're my own
00:32:30little brother.
00:32:31Your restaurant
00:32:32is right across
00:32:32the 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
00:32:38learned was how
00:32:39to 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
00:32:45with the mayor.
00:32:45Please put in
00:32:46a good word for me.
00:32:47You can't let them
00:32:47close my place.
00:32:48That's everything
00:32:49I've got.
00:32:49Everything you've
00:32:50got, Percy?
00:32:51You call rotten meat
00:32:53and fake gold
00:32:53paint everything
00:32:54you've got?
00:32:54Just don't shut
00:32:55me down.
00:32:55I'll do anything
00:32:56you want.
00:32:57I'll give you
00:32:57all the shares.
00:32:58You come back
00:32:59and be the boss.
00:33:00I'll work for you.
00:33:01I'll be your
00:33:01line cook.
00:33:02Percy, do you
00:33:03remember how
00:33:03you humiliated
00:33:04Grayson?
00:33:05You said he was
00:33:05only worth
00:33:062,000 bucks.
00:33:07You said a
00:33:07homeless 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.
00:33:15He rolled down
00:33:16his car window,
00:33:17blew smoke
00:33:18in my face.
00:33:19And told me
00:33:20I didn't understand
00:33:21business.
00:33:22Percy, your biggest
00:33:22mistake wasn't greed.
00:33:24It was that you
00:33:25never learned
00:33:25to respect food.
00:33:26Someone who can
00:33:27make the finest
00:33:28fish smell like
00:33:28death has no
00:33:29place in a kitchen.
00:33:31You're really
00:33:32going to just
00:33:32let me die?
00:33:33For old time's
00:33:34sake, since you
00:33:35want to be a line
00:33:35cook so bad,
00:33:37C-Miss just
00:33:38happens to be
00:33:38looking for someone
00:33:39to clean the
00:33:39bathrooms.
00:33:402,000 a month.
00:33:41And the only
00:33:41reason I'm
00:33:42even offering
00:33:42it to you
00:33:43is out of
00:33:43respect for
00:33:44you being
00:33:44my big brother.
00:33:49Mr. Grayson,
00:33:50I'm officially
00:33:50transferring my
00:33:51$5 million
00:33:51annual banquet
00:33:52booking to
00:33:53C-Miss restaurant.
00:33:53Name your price.
00:33:54Just make sure
00:33:55that Otoe Sushi
00:33:56shows up at my
00:33:56event.
00:33:57Grayson,
00:33:57this is a
00:33:57long-term
00:33:58letter of intent
00:33:58from the
00:33:59Manhattan Restaurant
00:33:59Association.
00:34:00We're willing
00:34:01to pay a
00:34:0150% premium
00:34:02as long as
00:34:03C-Miss
00:34:03agrees to be
00:34:03our partner.
00:34:04Three hours
00:34:05ago,
00:34:05these same
00:34:05people watched
00:34:06Percy humiliate
00:34:06me in front of
00:34:07everyone.
00:34:07They laughed
00:34:08at me,
00:34:08a lowly
00:34:09line cook
00:34:09who didn't
00:34:09know his
00:34:10place.
00:34:10Now,
00:34:10they're willing
00:34:11to pay double
00:34:11just to beg
00:34:12me for a
00:34:12partnership.
00:34:13C-Miss will
00:34:13only sign with
00:34:14one partner
00:34:15in the next
00:34:15year.
00:34:16That spot,
00:34:17you'll have to
00:34:18fight for it
00:34:18yourselves.
00:34:19I have the
00:34:20strongest capital,
00:34:21that spot
00:34:21belongs to
00:34:22me!
00:34:22What can
00:34:22you offer
00:34:23besides money?
00:34:24I can provide
00:34:24the biggest
00:34:25advertising and
00:34:25sales channels!
00:34:26Get lost!
00:34:27This opportunity
00:34:28is mine!
00:34:32With the
00:34:33mayor's
00:34:33endorsement and
00:34:34the title of
00:34:35industry
00:34:35benchmark
00:34:36restaurant,
00:34:37C-Miss
00:34:37was splattered
00:34:38all over
00:34:38countless
00:34:39posters.
00:34:40Customers
00:34:41poured into
00:34:41C-Miss
00:34:42non-stop.
00:34:43Mia and
00:34:44I opened
00:34:44three more
00:34:45locations
00:34:46together.
00:34:46I never
00:34:47held back.
00:34:48I shared
00:34:48everything I
00:34:49knew.
00:34:49C-Miss
00:34:50will always
00:34:50stand for
00:34:51healthy,
00:34:52delicious
00:34:52food.
00:34:59All those
00:35:00prepayments
00:35:01that should
00:35:01have gone
00:35:01into Iron
00:35:02Anchor's
00:35:02account,
00:35:03they were
00:35:03now flooding
00:35:04into mine
00:35:05instead.
00:35:06Oh my
00:35:06God,
00:35:07I can't
00:35:07believe my
00:35:07eyes.
00:35:09Grayson,
00:35:10in less
00:35:10than half
00:35:10an hour,
00:35:11the prepayments
00:35:12have already
00:35:12topped three
00:35:13million.
00:35:14We made
00:35:14it!
00:35:15Grayson,
00:35:15you deserve
00:35:16this.
00:35:17The restaurant
00:35:17industry doesn't
00:35:18need some
00:35:18performer who
00:35:19only knows
00:35:20how to lie.
00:35:21It needs
00:35:21craftsmen like
00:35:22you,
00:35:23people with
00:35:23soul when
00:35:24it comes to
00:35:24food.
00:35:26This is the
00:35:26contract for
00:35:27government catering
00:35:28for the next
00:35:29year.
00:35:34pleasure doing
00:35:35business with
00:35:36you.
00:35:36At that
00:35:37moment,
00:35:37Percy,
00:35:38his face
00:35:39caked with
00:35:39mud,
00:35:40pressed himself
00:35:41against the
00:35:41window like
00:35:42a ghost,
00:35:42watching me
00:35:43sign contract
00:35:44after contract,
00:35:45signing away
00:35:46millions of
00:35:46dollars.
00:35:47Furious,
00:35:48he tried to
00:35:48get in,
00:35:49but the
00:35:49security guard
00:35:50at the door
00:35:51shoved him
00:35:51back,
00:35:52sending him
00:35:52tumbling down
00:35:53the steps.
00:35:54Get out of
00:35:54my way!
00:35:55That bastard
00:35:56Grayson took
00:35:57everything from
00:35:57me!
00:35:58This was
00:35:58supposed to
00:35:59be mine!
00:36:00Move along!
00:36:00This is no
00:36:01place for a
00:36:01homeless guy!
00:36:03He was out
00:36:03there watching.
00:36:05I was in
00:36:06here sitting.
00:36:07That single
00:36:08pane of glass
00:36:09was the line
00:36:09between heaven
00:36:10and hell.
00:36:11He used to
00:36:12say that
00:36:12without him,
00:36:13I'd be begging
00:36:14for food in
00:36:14Chinatown.
00:36:15Now,
00:36:16he can't even
00:36:17get past the
00:36:17door of my
00:36:18restaurant.
00:36:20Grayson!
00:36:20You traitor!
00:36:26Percy was
00:36:26curled up next
00:36:27to a stinking
00:36:28dumpster.
00:36:29His thousand
00:36:30dollar tuxedo
00:36:31was caked
00:36:31with grime.
00:36:32He was too
00:36:33afraid to go
00:36:34home,
00:36:34because all
00:36:35the partners
00:36:36he'd arrogantly
00:36:37signed with
00:36:37before were
00:36:38now turning
00:36:38on him after
00:36:39Iron Anchor
00:36:39got shut
00:36:40down.
00:36:41What awaited
00:36:42him was
00:36:42massive penalty
00:36:43fees and
00:36:44the fury of
00:36:44every single
00:36:45one of those
00:36:46partners.
00:36:51Hello?
00:36:53Boss,
00:36:53just give me
00:36:54a little more
00:36:54time.
00:36:55Time?
00:36:55Percy,
00:36:56your old
00:36:57frozen meat
00:36:57got my
00:36:58license revoked.
00:36:59According to
00:36:59the contract,
00:37:00you owe me
00:37:00triple the
00:37:01penalty.
00:37:02That's two
00:37:02million dollars.
00:37:03If I don't
00:37:04see that money
00:37:04by tomorrow
00:37:05morning,
00:37:05you can go
00:37:06feed the
00:37:06fish in
00:37:06the Hudson
00:37:07River.
00:37:13Percy,
00:37:14this is James
00:37:14from Seafood
00:37:15Logistics.
00:37:15That industry
00:37:16benchmark prize
00:37:17you promised
00:37:17was total
00:37:18bullshit.
00:37:18I want my
00:37:19shipping fees
00:37:19and the
00:37:19500,000 penalty.
00:37:21Transfer it
00:37:21now.
00:37:22Otherwise,
00:37:22I'm sending
00:37:23your address to
00:37:23every creditor in
00:37:24Manhattan.
00:37:25Percy pinned
00:37:26all his
00:37:27remaining hope
00:37:27on live
00:37:28streaming.
00:37:28He begged
00:37:29his viewers
00:37:30to send him
00:37:30money to
00:37:31save Iron
00:37:31Anchor.
00:37:32He made a
00:37:33complete fool
00:37:33of himself
00:37:34like a stray
00:37:34dog losing
00:37:35every shred
00:37:36of dignity.
00:37:37He did
00:37:37pathetic stunts.
00:37:38He even
00:37:38fought homeless
00:37:39people for
00:37:39food.
00:37:40You felled us
00:37:41garbage for
00:37:41so long.
00:37:42What right
00:37:42does an
00:37:42animal like
00:37:43you have
00:37:43to ask
00:37:44for our
00:37:44forgiveness?
00:37:45Report him.
00:37:46Make him
00:37:46disappear for
00:37:47good.
00:37:47No,
00:37:48no,
00:37:48no.
00:37:49If I
00:37:49hadn't skimped
00:37:50on that
00:37:5090,000,
00:37:51if I hadn't
00:37:51pushed him
00:37:52away,
00:37:52that six
00:37:53million would
00:37:54have been
00:37:55mine too.
00:37:56He finally
00:37:56understood.
00:37:57Losing me
00:37:58wasn't just
00:37:58losing a line
00:37:59cook.
00:38:00It was
00:38:00losing his
00:38:01only brain
00:38:01and his
00:38:02last chance
00:38:02to be a
00:38:03decent human
00:38:03being.
00:38:04The live
00:38:04stream ban
00:38:05was the
00:38:05final straw
00:38:06that broke
00:38:07Percy.
00:38:07He looked
00:38:08at Sea Mist
00:38:09Restaurant,
00:38:09glowing with
00:38:10lights,
00:38:11and finally
00:38:11broke down
00:38:12sobbing.
00:38:14I was
00:38:15wrong.
00:38:16Grayson,
00:38:17I was
00:38:17really wrong.
00:38:23time to
00:38:24pay up.
00:38:27Hear my
00:38:28love.
00:38:31No,
00:38:31no.
00:38:32Grayson,
00:38:33help me.
00:38:34Help me.
00:38:37I took
00:38:38Mia out
00:38:38for a nice
00:38:39meal because
00:38:40we were so
00:38:40poor last
00:38:41year.
00:38:42I couldn't
00:38:42even feed
00:38:43my pregnant
00:38:43wife decent
00:38:44food more
00:38:45than a few
00:38:45times.
00:38:46Mia,
00:38:47thank you
00:38:48for
00:38:48everything
00:38:50these past
00:38:51three years.
00:38:52Grayson,
00:38:53I feel like
00:38:53I'm dreaming.
00:38:54A month ago
00:38:55we were
00:38:55stressing over
00:38:56$500 in
00:38:57rent.
00:38:58Dreams
00:38:58end,
00:38:59but these
00:39:00numbers don't
00:39:00lie.
00:39:01Three days
00:39:01ago,
00:39:02I sat
00:39:02here watching
00:39:03Percy throw
00:39:03money around
00:39:04like it was
00:39:04nothing.
00:39:05Now,
00:39:05Sea Mist's
00:39:06weekly revenue
00:39:07alone equals
00:39:07his entire
00:39:08net profit
00:39:08from last
00:39:09year.
00:39:09Ones,
00:39:10tens,
00:39:10hundreds,
00:39:11thousands,
00:39:11tens of
00:39:11thousands.
00:39:12Grayson,
00:39:13the prepayments
00:39:14and net
00:39:14profit,
00:39:14it's over
00:39:15six million?
00:39:15That's just
00:39:16the first week.
00:39:16With the
00:39:17mayor's
00:39:17endorsement,
00:39:18every big
00:39:18name in
00:39:19New York,
00:39:19politicians
00:39:20and socialettes
00:39:21alike is
00:39:21lining up.
00:39:22We're already
00:39:23booked through
00:39:24Christmas next
00:39:24year.
00:39:25We're rich.
00:39:26We can give
00:39:27our child
00:39:27the best
00:39:27education.
00:39:28We never
00:39:29have to
00:39:29live under
00:39:30Percy's
00:39:30thumb again.
00:39:31I looked
00:39:31at Mia's
00:39:31excited face.
00:39:33It warmed
00:39:33my heart.
00:39:35To the future.
00:39:36Cheers.
00:39:38And Percy,
00:39:39at that very
00:39:40moment,
00:39:41he was huddled
00:39:42next to a
00:39:42dumpster,
00:39:43gnawling on
00:39:43someone else's
00:39:44disparted bread.
00:39:48I moved
00:39:49Mia out of
00:39:50that tiny
00:39:50rental apartment
00:39:51and bought
00:39:51the best
00:39:52estate in
00:39:52the city.
00:39:53Mr.
00:39:53Grayson,
00:39:54this is the
00:39:54most private
00:39:54estate in
00:39:55the entire
00:39:55city.
00:39:56It comes
00:39:56with its
00:39:56own
00:39:56helipad and
00:39:57a top
00:39:57of the
00:39:58security
00:39:58system.
00:39:59Do you
00:39:59like it?
00:40:00The
00:40:00sunlight here
00:40:01is beautiful,
00:40:01perfect for
00:40:02our kid to
00:40:02run around
00:40:03on the grass
00:40:03someday.
00:40:04I never
00:40:04imagined I'd
00:40:05live in a
00:40:05place like
00:40:05this someday.
00:40:07Grayson,
00:40:07this is too
00:40:07expensive.
00:40:08Mia,
00:40:09you deserve
00:40:09the best.
00:40:10Just sign
00:40:10it.
00:40:10This will
00:40:11be our
00:40:11family's
00:40:11safe haven.
00:40:13Now,
00:40:13I bought
00:40:14the estate
00:40:14that Percy
00:40:15never even
00:40:16dared to
00:40:16dream of
00:40:16stepping foot
00:40:17in.
00:40:17And him?
00:40:19He's hiding
00:40:19in some
00:40:20dark corner,
00:40:21running from
00:40:21the creditors.
00:40:22The soft
00:40:23opening of
00:40:23Sea Mist
00:40:24branch was
00:40:24a huge
00:40:24success.
00:40:25We can
00:40:25officially
00:40:26launch the
00:40:26expansion plan
00:40:27now.
00:40:27Yes,
00:40:28Mr.
00:40:28Grayson,
00:40:28the top
00:40:29ten commercial
00:40:29districts are
00:40:30all fighting
00:40:31for us to
00:40:31set up there.
00:40:32The contracts
00:40:32are ready.
00:40:33Tell them
00:40:33this,
00:40:34Sea Mist
00:40:34has only
00:40:34one standard,
00:40:35the finest
00:40:36ingredients,
00:40:37absolute
00:40:37transparency.
00:40:38Percy failed
00:40:39because he
00:40:39looked at his
00:40:40customers and
00:40:40saw cash
00:40:41cows.
00:40:41I succeeded
00:40:42because I
00:40:43treat food
00:40:43like a
00:40:44religion.
00:40:45Expanding
00:40:45the business
00:40:46isn't about
00:40:46hoarding money,
00:40:47it's about
00:40:48letting more
00:40:48people around
00:40:49the world
00:40:49enjoy this
00:40:49food.
00:40:50Grayson,
00:40:51we're really
00:40:52starting a
00:40:52new life.
00:40:56The first
00:40:56stop for our
00:40:57expansion?
00:40:58That port
00:40:59Percy always
00:40:59wanted to
00:41:00take over
00:41:00for himself.
00:41:14Goodbye,
00:41:14Grayson.
00:41:15You made
00:41:15it.
00:41:17You
00:41:17goddamn
00:41:18piece of
00:41:18trash.
00:41:18You
00:41:19actually
00:41:19sold
00:41:19banned
00:41:20meat?
00:41:20Are you
00:41:20even
00:41:21human?
00:41:21Dad,
00:41:23I was
00:41:23just

00:41:45rotten
00:41:45parasite.
00:41:46You're a monster!
00:41:47Get out!
00:41:48Stop hitting me!
00:41:49Grayson is loaded!
00:41:50He's got tens of millions now!
00:41:52Make him help me!
00:41:55You still have the nerve to mention him?
00:41:58When you paid him 2,000 bucks, did you ever stop to think he was your little brother?
00:42:02Get out!
00:42:03Go be a line cook out on the streets!
00:42:12His nightmare had only just begun.
00:42:25What happened at Iron Anchor was a misunderstanding! I already switched suppliers! Just lift the van, please! Give me one
00:42:33more day!
00:42:34Mr. Percy, your restaurant is on the national blacklist now. Old frozen meat and formalide-laden decor? Those search terms
00:42:42are number one on Google.
00:42:43Stop wasting our time. Get out and don't bring that stench into our office.
00:42:47Reputation takes a year to build and one plate of rotten Otoro sushi to destroy.
00:42:58Lisa!
00:43:00Where are you going? My cards are frozen! You have to help me!
00:43:03Help you? Percy? Right now you're worse than a homeless guy on the street.
00:43:08These bottles are my appearance fee for putting on that show with you for a year.
00:43:12Don't contact me again. I don't want creditors thinking I'm your partner.
00:43:15The love he was so proud of?
00:43:20It ran faster than anyone the moment Iron Anchor got shut down.
00:43:24That's my car! That's my money!
00:43:33Watching Percy fall apart like this, I couldn't help but feel grateful that the woman by my side is more.
00:43:42With nowhere left to go, Percy stole mom and dad's retirement savings and borrowed a huge junk of money from
00:43:49the neighbors.
00:43:49My parents called me to handle it.
00:43:52I bought the most expensive estate in Manhattan.
00:43:54A place with a garden bigger than Percy's entire restaurant.
00:43:58I brought Mia back here to show my parents that their younger son, the one they called just a line
00:44:03cook, was the true pride of the family.
00:44:08Mom! Just $20,000!
00:44:11Give it to me and I'll pay you back ten times when I'm back on top!
00:44:14You animal!
00:44:15You stole the money mom needs for her heart surgery!
00:44:17And you scamp the neighbors!
00:44:18We can't even show our faces outside anymore!
00:44:20Are you going to drive us crazy?
00:44:22Grayson, you ungrateful snake.
00:44:24You live in a mansion, wear suits worth tens of thousands, and you just watch your own brother die?
00:44:28Dad, Mom, here are the keys to your new house.
00:44:31A villa I bought for you on the Upper East Side.
00:44:33It comes with the best in-home doctors.
00:44:35Percy, don't you dare use the word family to disgust me.
00:44:38The moment you stole their retirement money, you should have realized you're already out of this family.
00:44:46Money! That's mine!
00:44:49You owe me!
00:44:50This money is for the neighbors.
00:44:52As for you, Percy, you don't deserve to touch a single cent.
00:44:55I was wearing clothes he could never afford in his lifetime.
00:44:58I was standing at a height he would never reach.
00:45:00And he was down on the ground like a dog, finally realizing he had lost.
00:45:11Good morning, Mr. Grayson.
00:45:13Thank you for the jobs you've provided.
00:45:16Mr. Grayson, Seamist Restaurant is truly the pride of this entire street.
00:45:21A month ago, when I walked down this street, everyone looked at me like I was a joke.
00:45:25Now, I own half the storefronts on this block, and the looks people give me have gone from contempt to
00:45:29respect.
00:45:31Suddenly, from the end of the street, a sharp scream cut through the air, followed by a sickening crunch.
00:45:37Two million in penalties!
00:45:39You promised to 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 and have enough to pay you all off.
00:45:50A piece of trash like you!
00:45:52Dares to call him your brother!
00:45:53He just issued a statement in the paper!
00:45:54He's cutting all ties with you!
00:45:56No money, huh?
00:45:57Then we do it the old way.
00:45:58Let's start with two fingers.
00:46:05I took Mia's hand and stepped through the magnificent doors of Seamist Restaurant.
00:46:09Behind me, Percy's screams for help echoed as the debt cappers dragged him into the shadows.
00:46:13Please!
00:46:15Go tell those guys, don't let any blood get spilled in front of my restaurant, and make it quick.
00:46:20Yes, Mr. Grayson.
00:46:34From today on, Seamist is no longer just a restaurant.
00:46:37We're going to build the most legitimate food supply chain in this city.
00:46:41And the people on Surlate, if they're clean, no tricks, no dirt, I'll double their pay.
00:46:46Yes, Grayson!
00:46:48Grayson, congratulations on the new company.
00:46:50I left that loser, Percy, because I could see you were the real deal.
00:46:53The one who actually gets things done.
00:46:55Grayson, does Seamist need a PR director?
00:46:59Or maybe a personal assistant?
00:47:01I know everything you like, just like I knew everything about Percy.
00:47:04Lisa, you sure knew Percy.
00:47:06You knew exactly how to kick him when he was down.
00:47:08And you know exactly how to crawl back like a parasite the second you smell money.
00:47:12Miss Lisa, Seamist doesn't need an assistant.
00:47:14But we are looking for a cleaner to take out the trash.
00:47:17But take a look at your clothes.
00:47:18I doubt you could even hold a rag, Stady.
00:47:20Get this piece of cheap, perfumed garbage out of here.
00:47:23From today on, if she shows up within a kilometer of Seamist, call the cops immediately.
00:47:28Grayson!
00:47:29Don't get cocky!
00:47:30You were just a line cook too!
00:47:34I watched her pathetic retreat.
00:47:37In the eyes of opportunists like her, every spot next to me has a price tag.
00:47:41But they don't know.
00:47:43Mia lived with me in that leaky rental apartment.
00:47:46I know for certain.
00:47:47She is the one and only love my life.
00:47:50Why do you keep staring at me?
00:47:55Mia.
00:47:57I think I owe you a grand wedding.
00:48:11I think I owe you a grand wedding.
00:48:25Poor couple are sitting right there in the audience, applauding us with the most flattering cheers.
00:48:32This is the coronation I promised my wife.
00:48:40Grayson, save me.
00:48:42The debt collure has broke my fingers.
00:48:43I'm in the alley right outside the church.
00:48:45Please, just give me 50,000 one last time.
00:48:50Is it him?
00:48:59Someone who doesn't matter.
00:49:01He doesn't get to disturb our wedding.
00:49:02I'm not going to pile on someone already down.
00:49:06Not out of mercy.
00:49:07He's just not worth my time.
00:49:09But I'm not a 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 expensive billboard in Times Square and played my wedding video on loop.
00:49:36Percy watched the screen in fury.
00:49:38Percy, your big shot brother already said he's stripping you of his last name.
00:49:41You don't even have a 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 that money becomes mine.
00:49:48Kill him?
00:49:49Grayson is the mayor's right hand gun now.
00:49:52He's got thousands of bodyguards.
00:49:54But you, your eyeballs are worth something.
00:49:56How about we take them as interest first?
00:50:01Grayson, you think you've won?
00:50:03Your woman's about to give birth, right?
00:50:05You're going to regret this.
00:50:07I'm going to destroy your happiness.
00:50:09Completely.
00:50:10I thought he would just wither away in his despair.
00:50:13I underestimated how deeply greed and jealousy can twister the person's soul.
00:50:18A vicious plan was closing in on me.
00:50:29Grayson!
00:50:31You live in a mansion worth thousands of square feet, and you're going to let me freeze
00:50:35to death out here?
00:50:36Grayson, you know, he is your own brother.
00:50:39Can't you give him one more chance?
00:50:40A year ago, Percy was throwing money around at Iron Anchor while mom and dad lived in that
00:50:45leaky old house.
00:50:46He never once mentioned family.
00:50:48Now that he's drowning, he's using our elderly parents to play the guilt card.
00:50:52That kind of guilt is disgusts me even more than that plate of rotten otosushi.
00:51:02Brother, save me!
00:51:03Just transfer ten, ten percent of C-Mist shares to me, and the creditors will leave me alone!
00:51:09Mom and dad, please, say something for me!
00:51:12Grayson, those deck cleapers are beating Percy half to death!
00:51:15He still has the strength to beg.
00:51:17He still has the strength to come here.
00:51:18He's perfectly capable of pulling himself out of this mess.
00:51:22You cold-blooded freak!
00:51:32You tried to hurt your own little brother?
00:51:35Please!
00:51:36Mom, dad, this is the son you wanted me to help.
00:51:39He never once thought of us as family.
00:51:44I never kick a man when he's down, but I will not repay evil with kindness.
00:51:50In that moment, his last family card was burned to ash by my own hand.
00:51:56You animal!
00:51:58Now we only have one son, Grayson!
00:52:00Don't you ever show your face in front of us again!
00:52:03No, no, no!
00:52:05Mom!
00:52:05Dad!
00:52:06No, no, no!
00:52:08No!
00:52:12That hopeless bastard!
00:52:15Grayson, it was our fault for asking you to help him.
00:52:19Don't worry about it, Mom.
00:52:21Mr. Grayson, it's bad.
00:52:22While your parents were asleep, a man claiming to be their son forced his way in and took their bags.
00:52:27That animal?
00:52:29Those bags had Mom and Dad's life savings.
00:52:31They're only retirement money!
00:52:35I thought Percy would just crawl into some corner and wait to die after being exposed.
00:52:40I underestimated how desperate a gambler with nothing left to loss can become.
00:52:50He didn't steal that money to pay off his debts.
00:52:52He stole it to feed his delusional dream of a comeback.
00:52:58Grayson, we found him.
00:53:00Percy has hooked up with an underground factory in Brooklyn.
00:53:02They produce illegal chemical flavorings that are highly addictive.
00:53:05He's trying to use those poisons to copy Sea Mist's taste and force his way back into the market.
00:53:09For a little money, he's willing to do something like this.
00:53:25Get the best medical team in the country.
00:53:2724-hour care for Mom and Dad.
00:53:29Do whatever it takes to keep them from finding out what that bastard Percy has done.
00:53:32As for Percy, I'm going to make him pay.
00:53:36Before, I just wanted to see him broken on the streets.
00:53:39Now, I'm going to take him out myself.
00:53:48Talk!
00:53:49What did that ungrateful bastard give you?
00:53:52How dare you call him the most conscientious chef in Manhattan on livestream?
00:53:56He was about to pass out from hunger and I gave him a 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 that fed him.
00:54:08You're the real demon.
00:54:14Percy, go ahead.
00:54:15Touch that hand and see what happens.
00:54:18Grayson!
00:54:19You think just because you're some big shot now, 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.
00:54:35My rule is simple.
00:54:36A kindness, I return it tenfold.
00:54:39A slight, I break the bone, and from that delivered it.
00:54:46Sir, an apartment on the Upper East Side and a restaurant on Sorelli Street.
00:54:51They're yours now.
00:54:53Mr. Grayson, this is too much.
00:54:58This is nothing next to that burger you gave me back then.
00:55:01Percy lay there in the filthy water, watching the trash he'd just been kicked suddenly become the property owner he'd
00:55:07only ever dreamt.
00:55:09Jealousy and joking happy silence.
00:55:20While I sat atop Seamist Restaurant, enjoying the rich aroma of premium Wagyu,
00:55:25Percy was hiding in the stinking alleys of the slums, trying to make his last desperate comeback.
00:55:32Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:55:35You seeing this?
00:55:36This is what real charity looks like!
00:55:39Seamist charges thousands for one meal!
00:55:41That's robbery!
00:55:43My bliss box is 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, I don't care!
00:55:53Once I save up enough to buy out the Seamist, you could beg for it on your knees!
00:55:57Get lost!
00:55:58All of you haters, get lost!
00:56:01He had become a complete outcast, despised by the entire internet.
00:56:05He was poisoning those poor people, using that nerve-destroying addictive flavoring to make money, dreaming of making a comeback.
00:56:12He was knight.
00:56:13The foundation of business has never been violent addiction.
00:56:16It's absolute control over the global supply chain.
00:56:23Ah!
00:56:24Grayson, you came to laugh at me?
00:56:27Look!
00:56:28Look at all these people in line!
00:56:30My capital is doubling!
00:56:32Soon I'll be able to buy out your fake little restaurant!
00:56:34What have you got to fight me with?
00:56:37In Seamist Group's name, inform the Global Spice Association.
00:56:41From this moment on, whoever sells one gram of spice to any factory connected to Percy will be permanently erased
00:56:46from the global supply chain.
00:56:47Spice?
00:56:48I've got money, you idiot!
00:56:49I'll just buy some from Chinatown!
00:56:51Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:56:55What?
00:56:56Not just the big suppliers?
00:56:58Even the small workshops are canceling?
00:57:00They're demanding triple the refund?
00:57:02Without spice, I can't cover up the bitterness of all that expired rotten meat!
00:57:05Hello?
00:57:06Percy, without fire and salt, you can't even cook a plate of garbage.
00:57:10I cut off his last lifeline.
00:57:16Ah!
00:57:20Leo, you're the person Grayson trusts the most.
00:57:24Just put one drop of this vial into his tuna.
00:57:26This five million and shares in the new company.
00:57:29It's all yours.
00:57:31Five million.
00:57:33Gotta admit, that's tempting.
00:57:35Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:57:35Good!
00:57:36That arrogant bastard Grayson, he never imagined he'd be betrayed by someone he saved.
00:57:42Percy, looks like you forgot.
00:57:43Leo was about to go under, and I'm the one who pulled him out.
00:57:47Your filthy money couldn't even buy back the life I saved for him back then.
00:57:51When I save someone, loyalty is in their blood.
00:57:55Percy's blood?
00:57:57It's pure, rotting greed.
00:57:59Trying to buy loyalty with filthy garbage like that is basically him executing whatever intelligence he had left.
00:58:07Tell me, if you drank that stuff you picked up yourself, what do you think would happen?
00:58:12No.
00:58:14No.
00:58:15Grayson, I'm your own brother.
00:58:17Don't kill me.
00:58:19Kill you?
00:58:20That would dirty my basement.
00:58:25Send him back.
00:58:26Crawling in the mud, that's the only thing that suits him.
00:58:29He took a step against me, so I'll make sure he never walks straight again.
00:58:32His dignity?
00:58:34I've stomped it straight into the gutter.
00:58:39Starting today, the C-Mist Group is acquiring every last shop on Surla Street.
00:58:44All of you who didn't follow Percy when he was doing his dirty work, you each receive a 5%
00:58:50in the original shares.
00:58:54I came back to rebuild, not to take revenge.
00:58:57I wanted these honest people to know, follow Grayson, and even a vegetable seller can stand tall and make money
00:59:04right here in Manhattan.
00:59:09Hurry up.
00:59:10Just give me some bread.
00:59:11I'm starving.
00:59:12Here.
00:59:13Mr. Grayson specifically asked for this, for some special people.
00:59:17Three-day-old stale ends.
00:59:22I watched him.
00:59:24He once wanted to starve me.
00:59:28Now, he's only breathing because I choose to throw him scraps.
00:59:34Percy, you're not off the hook yet.
00:59:36That illegal factory's poison?
00:59:38Time for you to take a sip yourself.
00:59:45Everyone, C-Mist restaurants' so-called natural ingredients are nothing but a lie for the rich.
00:59:52Today, I'm going to expose Grayson's crimes, monopolizing spices and driving up prices.
01:00:01Our tech-based food costs only 1% of C-Mistas, but tastes exactly the same.
01:00:07Grayson's era is over!
01:00:10I saw Percy's little circus act on the screen, and it did nothing to me.
01:00:13He's cozying up to those drug manufacturers who skate just inside the law trying to define great food with cheap
01:00:18-muckle garbage.
01:00:19He doesn't understand.
01:00:20Real top-tier ingredients are a gift from the earth and the sun, not some molecular arrangement in a lab.
01:00:29Today, the C-Mist group will roll out the global restaurant platinum standard.
01:00:34Any restaurant that does not meet the natural supply chain audit will be removed from the global procurement wild bist
01:00:39for good.
01:00:42Mr. Grayson's proposal is a beacon for the restaurant industry, and we support it 100%.
01:00:48While Percy was still in that dark little corner trying to smear my name, I was at the top of
01:00:54the food chain, rewriting the rules of the game.
01:00:58He thinks he's competing with me.
01:01:00The truth is, he's just swarming between my fingers.
01:01:04Ah! This is impossible!
01:01:06Why would the WTO stand up for a guy who used to be a line cook?
01:01:11Leo, tell the people next door that my press conference is over.
01:01:16Now, it's time to take out the trash.
01:01:26Grayson! This is illegal entry!
01:01:28My tech food is the future of the industry!
01:01:31The future of the industry?
01:01:33This chemical waste that makes people hallucinate?
01:01:36This bowl of plain kanji, made simply with rice from the 40th parallel north and spring water from Crimea.
01:01:42Judges, please.
01:01:46This is the taste of a mother's cooking.
01:01:48This is the pure warmth of the earth.
01:01:50Today, I destroyed all his hypocrisy and arrogance with a single bowl of plain kanji.
01:01:54A true master chef doesn't need complex recipes.
01:01:57All he needs is a heart that respects nature.
01:01:59Percy's lab-made perfect flavor?
01:02:01Compared to the real deal, it's just a toxic fraud.
01:02:04This is the molecular formula for your synthetic meat.
01:02:08There's a high dose of neuroblockers in this.
01:02:11Keep eating it, and you'll go crazy.
01:02:14Percy, this isn't cooking.
01:02:15It's straight-up murder!
01:02:19Murderer!
01:02:19Get out of Manhattan!
01:02:21Go to hell, you piece of trash!
01:02:23No, this isn't true!
01:02:25Grayson, you're setting me up!
01:02:26Percy, the moment you decided to poison the world with your drugs, the gates of hell were already open for
01:02:31you.
01:02:35Percy knelt on the ground, covered in filth, clinging to his father's legs and wailing.
01:02:40His illegal lab had just been raided by the police.
01:02:42He was now a wanted criminal across the country.
01:02:44Dad, Mom, save me!
01:02:47Grayson is gonna kill me!
01:02:48He's gonna throw me into the meat-grander with all those creditors!
01:02:54Percy!
01:02:56You are still my eldest son, after all.
01:03:03Grayson, could you maybe...
01:03:10Mom, even now, you still think he just made a mistake?
01:03:13The first one, this is the pension transfer authorization he personally signed while you were both in the hospital.
01:03:18The second one, this is the contract where he mortgaged this family home to underground loan sharks behind your backs.
01:03:27You animal!
01:03:28You even stole our funeral fund!
01:03:30Do you want the two of us to die on the street?
01:03:32Dad, I was trying to make a comeback!
01:03:33Once my chemical sauce sells, I could buy you a hundred penthouses!
01:03:36Go.
01:03:36Just go, Percy.
01:03:38I don't have a son like you anymore.
01:03:41Percy, the biggest mistake you ever made
01:03:43was treating everyone around you as sacrificial lambs for your own success.
01:03:49Starting today, you are out of this family.
01:03:53Percy, do you remember what you said?
01:03:55That one of us would take over the world, and the other would fade into obscurity?
01:03:58I'm gonna make sure you watch me take over the world.
01:04:00Grayson!
01:04:01You goddamn bastard!
01:04:06Grayson, you said you wanted to settle family out.
01:04:09Counts on this day.
01:04:11If you don't have solid evidence, you know the consequences.
01:04:14The Thorn family rule is pragmatism.
01:04:17But in this man's hands, rules are just a cover-up for his greed.
01:04:21A year ago, Percy stood at a family gathering and mocked these hands of mine,
01:04:25saying they were only good for holding a kitchen knife.
01:04:27Today, I'm not just taking back my dignity.
01:04:29I'm tearing apart his lies with my own hands.
01:04:32He thought being family would save him, like a free pass.
01:04:35What he didn't know is that before absolute rules,
01:04:38every single betrayal comes with a price.
01:04:40First crime, exploitation.
01:04:42In the three years at Iron Anchor, he withheld $90,000 of my front propyorkant payment
01:04:46and treated me like cheap liber.
01:04:47Second crime, poisoning.
01:04:49He colluded with chemical companies and added nerve-blocking agents to the ingredients.
01:04:53This is a direct assault on the hundred-year reputation.
01:04:55Third crime, attempted murder.
01:04:58He tried to attack and harm me.
01:04:59Oh!
01:05:01You animal!
01:05:02You dared to harm your own brother?
01:05:04Fourth crime, and the most unforgivable one, embezzlement.
01:05:08While our parents were in the hospital,
01:05:10he stole their pension and mortgaged the family home.
01:05:12He tried to push the very people who raised him into the Hudson River.
01:05:15No!
01:05:16That was all for business!
01:05:18Grayson, you're insane!
01:05:19Evidence is cold, but people's hearts are hot.
01:05:21The moment those four crimes came together, to these elders,
01:05:24he was no longer the hope of the family.
01:05:26He was a rotting sword that had to be cut out.
01:05:27You worthless bastard!
01:05:29What do you have to say for yourself?
01:05:36Elder, even if I was wrong, I'm the only business genius in this family.
01:05:41Grayson is just a cook. He can't protect the family's legacy.
01:05:43A business genius?
01:05:45Parsi, all your so-called management is just chasing internet fame
01:05:49while clinging to the dying Iron Anchor restaurant.
01:05:55This is CMIST Group's valuation.
01:05:58One hundred billion dollars.
01:06:00I don't just control one-third of the top-tier supply gen.
01:06:03I also have the industry medal personally awarded by the World Trade Organization.
01:06:06I wasn't showing them money, but absolute dominance.
01:06:09In this world, capital speaks.
01:06:11And the highest level of capital, it makes people kneel.
01:06:13Percy thought he was running a business.
01:06:15Me? I'm running an era.
01:06:17When I spread out these reports enough to buy half of New York,
01:06:19his pathetic little assets wouldn't even be enough to pay my taxes.
01:06:23One hundred billion?
01:06:25Grayson, you did this in just one year?
01:06:27Please, Mr. Grayson, take your place as the head of the family.
01:06:31That's mine!
01:06:32That was supposed to be mine!
01:06:34Grayson, what right do you have, you lowly line cook?
01:06:37Percy, take a good look.
01:06:39In this world, the strong make the rules.
01:06:41The weak just wait to die.
01:06:44I stand at the summit, looking down at him.
01:06:47He once wanted me to kneel.
01:06:49Now, he wasn't even worthy to lift his head and look at me.
01:06:59Thorn Percy, from this moment on,
01:07:01you no longer carry the Thorn name.
01:07:03You are out of this family.
01:07:05No, you can't tear it!
01:07:07I am a Thorn!
01:07:08I have Thorn blood running through my veins!
01:07:10Without the family, the creditors would tear Percy to pieces.
01:07:13I knew that, and I didn't help him.
01:07:15Percy, the moment you stole mum and dad's pension,
01:07:17you had no blood relation left.
01:07:19I watched that page get consumed by the flames,
01:07:21turning to ash.
01:07:22In Thorn family tradition, being expelled means social death.
01:07:24From now on, he is no one's son, no one's brother.
01:07:26As a nameless nobody in the filthiest sewers,
01:07:28he will pay back every blood bet he owed.
01:07:30I want you to live
01:07:32as a man with no name.
01:07:34Grayson!
01:07:35You bastard!
01:07:38Without my hundred thousand dollars,
01:07:40you'd still be a cockroach in the gutter!
01:07:42A pathetic, lowly line cook!
01:07:52From this day forward,
01:07:54the Thorn family has no Percy.
01:07:56I looked up at the skyscrapers in the distance.
01:08:06No money.
01:08:07Then pay with your life.
01:08:09The Thorn family has already thrown you away like garbage.
01:08:12Right now,
01:08:13you're worse than the 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 off his body,
01:08:28and it would be enough to pay you all back.
01:08:34In Manhattan,
01:08:35the highest form of rejection isn't insults.
01:08:37It's silence.
01:08:39Right now,
01:08:39I'm sitting within arm rage of him,
01:08:41but I can't even be bothered to lift a finger.
01:08:43The moment he stole our parents' last bit of survival money,
01:08:46he lost even the right to 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 and feed me to the face!
01:08:55Give me a million!
01:08:56No,
01:08:57$500,000!
01:08:58Just that much!
01:09:15Percy used to say that money was the only true faith in this world.
01:09:19Since he loves money so much, I'll let him feel what it's like when that money becomes a pile of
01:09:23stones crushing his spine.
01:09:33Percy, this is the money you owe us, the price of our sweat, our blood.
01:09:37Take these bills and crawl back to your hell.
01:09:47Money, my money.
01:09:50Grayson, you finally gave me money.
01:09:53I win.
01:09:54Percy, take a good look.
01:09:55Look, the thing you treat as your religion, to me, is just spare change for trash.
01:10:03I used to be a line cook worth only $2,000.
01:10:07Now I've made him understand.
01:10:09In front of absolute skill and absolute rules, all a greedy man will ever get is a pile of worthless
01:10:14paper.
01:10:26Listen up, everyone.
01:10:28From today on, there's only one standard on Manhattan's dining tables.
01:10:33The Sea Mist Ethical Chef Standard.
01:10:37Any chef who makes it onto Sea Mist's whitelist, I will personally vouch for their professional integrity.
01:10:42In return, Sea Mist guarantees their salary will double.
01:10:44But if anyone dares to put even one gram of dirty ingredients into their food, I promise you, they will
01:10:49never have the chance to pick up a pair of chopsticks again.
01:10:55Grayson, you're absolutely right.
01:10:57Now that you've laid down the rules, none of us would dare to think otherwise.
01:11:00We'll do everything according to Sea Mist rules.
01:11:12We'll do everything else.
01:11:34Let me go back to cutting vegetables.
01:11:37I don't even need money.
01:11:39Just let me back into a kitchen.
01:11:46Go back to cutting vegetables?
01:11:47Jaws, you're way too naive.
01:11:49You've been blacklisted by the entire restaurant industry.
01:11:52No!
01:11:53No!
01:12:04New York is just the beginning.
01:12:10Grayson, look how soundly the baby is sleeping.
01:12:14He's going to inherit everything I've built.
01:12:23Try this.
01:12:30I've given Mia the most precious love in the world.
01:12:33Because she was there for me when the road was darkest.
01:12:37This single piece of Satimi is worth a fortune.
01:12:41But it still can't compare to the hug she gave me back then.
01:12:44That was mine.
01:12:46That should have been my spot.
01:12:48Leo.
01:12:50The flies outside are too noisy.
01:12:52Clean them up.
01:12:57On opposite sides of a fence.
01:13:00Worlds apart.
01:13:12Grayson, I knew it.
01:13:14I knew you would come back.
01:13:15Professor, if it weren't for that hard bread you gave me back then, I wouldn't have made it until CMIST
01:13:21opened.
01:13:21On behalf of the CMIST group, I am donating $10 billion.
01:13:25Not just for the school, but to honor Professor Smith's craftsmanship.
01:13:30Grayson, does the Research Institute need any logistic staff?
01:13:33We haven't been doing well these past few years.
01:13:36For old times' sake, I remember you.
01:13:38You said back then that I was only fit to clean your toilets.
01:13:41That was a joke.
01:13:42Grayson, we'd take any job, even a janitor at the Research Institute.
01:13:46Tell HR every single position at the Research Institute, from security to cleaning staff,
01:13:50to the guys mowing the lawn, I have to interview them personally.
01:13:52I watched the fear and greed in their eyes, and I felt nothing.
01:13:55Class, it used to be their weapon for bullying me.
01:13:58Now, it's my shackles for judging them.
01:14:06Sir, I used to run a restaurant.
01:14:08I know a lot about trash sorting.
01:14:10Please, just give me a job so I can eat.
01:14:13Alert. Blacklisted individual detected.
01:14:15Persing. Permission level permanently banned.
01:14:21Get lost!
01:14:22Every single business under sea mist, even our trash dump, won't take scum like you!
01:14:31Grayson!
01:14:32You can't do this to me!
01:14:35I'm your own brother!
01:14:37I bought up all the trash processing rights in Manhattan, not just for the monopoly.
01:14:40But to make sure certain scumbags have nowhere left to hide in this city.
01:14:45He once said I was a line cook who could be replaced by any homeless guy off the street.
01:14:49Now, he doesn't even qualify to be a sorter.
01:14:52The AI recognition system upgrade looks good.
01:14:55Give the tech department a bonus.
01:14:57The struggles of a clown like this aren't even worth a second of my anger anymore.
01:15:01His misery is just background noise on my way to the top.
01:15:17In the old era of the food industry, the exploiters believed that as long as they controlled the capital,
01:15:21they could run over skill and destroy a chef's soul.
01:15:23But the rise of sea mist is here to tell everyone in this room,
01:15:26I am rewriting the rules.
01:15:27The exploiters will eventually be abandoned by the times,
01:15:30but the craftsmen who protect the soul, they will be crowned kings.
01:15:32I wasn't just giving a speech.
01:15:34I was declaring war on this cold-blooded world of capital.
01:15:37A year ago, they were Percy's guests of honor, laughing as I got thrown out on my ass.
01:15:42Today, with sea mist standards,
01:15:44I've put a shackle called conscience around every single one of their necks.
01:15:47Grayson, sea mist group's valuation can no longer be measured by money.
01:15:50What is your next goal?
01:15:51My goal is to make sure there is no more soil in this world for a cancer like Percy to
01:15:54grow.
01:15:54I saw it in the eyes of those tycoons who once seemed untouchable.
01:15:58A fear they've never felt before.
01:16:00The underdog's rise isn't a myth.
01:16:02It's the judgment I wrote with my own.
01:16:04That's it.
01:16:07Grayson, I'm cooperating.
01:16:09I'll tell you everything.
01:16:10Three months ago, that maniac Percy bribed one of our lab technicians.
01:16:13He took high concentration harmful chemicals.
01:16:15Make it clear.
01:16:17He wants to destroy sea mist's air.
01:16:19He's planning to put harmful substances in that batch of special supply milk powder.
01:16:22I thought stripping him of his name and letting him rot in the gutter like a rat was my final
01:16:26act of mercy.
01:16:27But I underestimated how vicious a mad dog can be.
01:16:30He dared to reach his filthy hands towards my child.
01:16:33Leo, go take care of something.
01:16:36Please give your orders, Mr. Grayson.
01:16:37Mobilize the global legal team.
01:16:39Yes, sir.
01:16:40I want Percy to spend the rest of his life in the coldest, darkest prison cell they can find.
01:16:44Tell the warden, I don't want him dead.
01:16:45I want him to accidentally live to be 100 every single day, surrounded by sickness and the torture of those
01:16:50creditors.
01:16:50Watching the glory of my sea mist restaurant shine in the sunlight.
01:16:53Blinding him from behind those bars.
01:16:55Since he doesn't want to be human, I'll send him to real hell.
01:16:58I want him to live in endless regret, a dying flame in the depths of hell.
01:17:05Defendant Percy, on multiple counts, including food safety violations, attempted harm, malicious tempering, and massive fraud,
01:17:11you are hereby sentenced to life in prison without parole.
01:17:15No! I won't accept this!
01:17:17Grayson, you devil! You manipulated everything!
01:17:19A year ago, I begged him in the rain to leave Mom and Dad some money for their medical bees.
01:17:24He tore my dignity to shreds in public.
01:17:26And now he wants to talk about blood?
01:17:27The moment he reached for Mom and Dad's pension,
01:17:30the moment he reached for my baby's milk powder,
01:17:32he cut that vein with his own hands.
01:17:38Grayson, all that mess in Manhattan,
01:17:41it's finally over.
01:17:43We were blind back then.
01:17:45It was our fault.
01:17:47Mom, it's all in the past.
01:17:49I watched the relieved smiles on my parents' faces.
01:17:53Finally, they were free from that nightmare.
01:17:56Percy is counting lice in a cold prison cell.
01:18:00And my family?
01:18:02We're standing in the sunlight.
01:18:06He rewrote how this industry exploits people.
01:18:09He protected the soul of ingredients.
01:18:11Now let us welcome the world's top culinary leader, Grayson!
01:18:17Today, this trophy doesn't belong to me alone.
01:18:20It belongs to everyone.
01:18:21I'm not standing here to enjoy some empty fame.
01:18:23I'm here to issue the new C-MIST decree.
01:18:25These people, they were once exploited by Percy at Iron Locker.
01:18:28I announced that C-MIST Group will set up a $1 billion support fund.
01:18:31Every front-line employee who suffered exploitation,
01:18:33as long as you pass the assessment,
01:18:35C-MIST will grant you the right to open a franchise, Freeman.
01:18:38I'll live, Grayson!
01:18:39This is what a real slap in the face looks like.
01:18:41I'm going to make Percy watch on TV.
01:18:43All those people who called homeless bums
01:18:46are becoming millionaires under my wing.
01:18:47And him?
01:18:48He can't even afford a roll of toilet paper.
01:18:53Grayson, two-thirds of the Michelin restaurants around the world
01:18:56have already applied to join the C-MIST certification standard.
01:18:59Shh!
01:19:02Then let them wait in line.
01:19:03We make the rules.
01:19:07One year ago, I was at the other end of this city
01:19:09holding only $10,000 the money I'd bled for.
01:19:12Now, this building beneath my feet,
01:19:13plus thousands of branches around the world,
01:19:15my net worth has exceeded $100 billion.
01:19:17And this Manhattan reeking of money,
01:19:19I use the most humble skills to level every injustice.
01:19:23What are you thinking about?
01:19:27I'm thinking that poor kid who rented that $500 dump
01:19:31had pretty good taste.
01:19:34That was the best investment in the world.
01:19:36The name Percy has been burned to ash from the family tree
01:19:39and erased from this city's history.
01:19:41From now on, no more iron anchor in Manhattan,
01:19:43only C-MIST.
01:19:44Survival of the fittest was the old rule.
01:19:46My rule?
01:19:46Let the ones with soul rise to the top.
01:19:48I'm Grayson.
01:19:49The C-MIST era never ends.
01:20:23The C-MIST.
01:20:24The C-MIST.
01:20:25The C-MIST.
01:20:28The C-MIST.
01:20:29You
