00:02:43Judy, priorities. We still don't know if her proposal is going to pass. Focus on that.
00:02:47Okay, well I heard today's client is the boss of bosses. Ten million for one deal. Ten million!
00:02:53That would keep Almond afloat for three years.
00:02:55Even the more reason to nail it?
00:02:56Tina, Judy, do you want your jobs or not? The client is here. You almost blew the meeting's schedule.
00:03:12Hey!
00:03:17Edward, you again?
00:03:22Edward, you again?
00:03:26Watch your tongue. That's our client. The owner of Lightspeed.
00:03:33Peter, why let just anyone in? Just anyone?
00:03:37I'm Almond's event planner. Same as you. You're not worthy of the title.
00:03:43Apologies, Mr. Davis. She's a junior member. She can't even dress herself properly. She has no respect.
00:03:50Your personal visit is our greatest honor.
00:03:53It's fine.
00:03:56And your name?
00:03:58I'm Isabella. I'm Almond's chief planner.
00:04:01My proposal...
00:04:02Yeah, thank you. I'll remember your name.
00:04:07Lightspeed wants a creative, thoughtful campaign to launch our new lifestyle brand.
00:04:12We're not just selling clothes. We're selling an idea. Female empowerment.
00:04:20Our street-style check-in campaign taps into youth culture.
00:04:25We partner with shopping malls, host splash mob battles, and bring influencers to ignite Buzz.
00:04:35Tina, your thoughts?
00:04:39Me?
00:04:48I'm not impressed.
00:04:51Why not?
00:04:53Your new line targets professional women, challenging the notion that office wear must be uniform and dull.
00:04:59Your campaign should focus on how women express themselves, breaking molds at work, mirroring the product ethos.
00:05:11Tina, you'll lead this.
00:05:14What do you mean?
00:05:15Hand the campaign to Tina?
00:05:17You're giving the campaign to Tina.
00:05:20Mr. Davis, are you joking?
00:05:22She's a junior planner. You'd be squandering millions of dollars.
00:05:26Isabella, is it?
00:05:28Mind your time with Tina, or the deal is off.
00:05:32What kind of drama is this?
00:05:35Mr. Davis, Tina is a bottom-of-the-chart performer.
00:05:40She's hardly qualified.
00:05:42Isabella's campaign is market-tested and ready to roll out now.
00:05:46Exactly.
00:05:47My proposal could launch immediately.
00:05:50Tina is leading this campaign.
00:05:52I won't tell you again.
00:06:01If Almond can't accept my decision, then Lightspeed will pool funding.
00:06:05Withdraw funding?
00:06:07That's a nine-figure deal.
00:06:10You have three days to complete this.
00:06:14Can you do it?
00:06:17You should say thank you to Mr. Davis. This is an enormous opportunity.
00:06:21Three days? Impossible.
00:06:22Please.
00:06:24Her and her sidekick couldn't do it if they had 300 days.
00:06:28Fine.
00:06:30I'll take it.
00:06:32Great.
00:06:33On one condition.
00:06:34Complete autonomy.
00:06:36No interference from anyone else.
00:06:39If you cannot promise this,
00:06:42the project goes to Isabella.
00:06:46Problem?
00:06:48No.
00:06:49No problem.
00:06:51Good.
00:06:52Then I expect the final plan in three days.
00:06:54Then I expect the final plan in three days.
00:07:01No problem.
00:07:09I don't think Edward's backing is going to save you if you blow this.
00:07:13You know the consequences.
00:07:17Tina, a multi-million dollar account.
00:07:19You can finally shine.
00:07:20Back to the benefits.
00:07:20Now.
00:07:21Now?
00:07:24Call back to every care home and community center with Brooklyn.
00:07:27And gather the latest leader on workplace gender equity.
00:07:30Great.
00:07:30Another three-night sleepover at work.
00:07:34Well, well, well, well, our chief planner, playing researcher.
00:07:38Three days to turn stone into gold.
00:07:40When the funding crashes, you'll be Almond's pariah.
00:07:43You.
00:07:44Can we help you?
00:07:46I'm just here to watch you crash and burn.
00:07:48Then we'll get to work.
00:07:50Judy?
00:07:51Let's catch your first concepts.
00:07:58What is wrong with you?
00:08:03If you linger here and slow down our project, you'll be the first to blame.
00:08:08Blame?
00:08:09You're going to fail.
00:08:11I'll just do my best.
00:08:13Ask for the outcome.
00:08:15Time will tell.
00:08:16Well, aren't you a shameless brighter?
00:08:21Good riddance.
00:08:24Talk is cheap.
00:08:25Time is everything.
00:08:28Another sleepless night?
00:08:30Is that obvious?
00:08:32How did you guess?
00:08:33Your face says it all.
00:08:36It's that project about him, right?
00:08:39Yes.
00:08:40And no.
00:08:41It's odd.
00:08:42He forced this campaign on me.
00:08:44Gave me only three days.
00:08:45Almost like he wants me to fail or make a fool of myself.
00:08:51Well, since you accepted, stop overthinking.
00:08:56It's just work.
00:08:57Work you believe in.
00:08:59I know, but I just...
00:09:00Tina, my dear, don't be so hard on yourself.
00:09:03It will only make it worse.
00:09:06Ask yourself one thing.
00:09:09Do you still have feelings for him?
00:09:16Some ties don't sever easily.
00:09:20You're stubborn, child.
00:09:23Please.
00:09:24Too much separates us.
00:09:26Class.
00:09:28Status.
00:09:30My disappearing without a word back then.
00:09:33He has every reason to hate me.
00:09:36I don't think so.
00:09:38After all these years.
00:09:41Don't rush your answer.
00:09:44He will show you.
00:09:51Mr. Davis, shall we begin?
00:09:54Ask Tina first.
00:09:55That's absurd.
00:09:56She's a junior planner.
00:09:58She doesn't deserve to start.
00:09:59If you're not willing to listen to Tina's proposal, then please, leave.
00:10:07Fine.
00:10:09Let her play.
00:10:10I'll stay and watch the show.
00:10:15Tina.
00:10:17Are you ready?
00:10:19Three days have passed.
00:10:21It's time for Tina to present her campaign proposal.
00:10:29Today, I'm not here to advertise Lightspeed's products.
00:10:33I'm here to expose the real state of women in the workplace.
00:10:38I'm here to expose the real state of women in the workplace.
00:10:44You should really focus on your campaign.
00:10:47Peter, please take this lady out of this meeting and let her rest.
00:10:51Lady?
00:10:52Her name is Isabella.
00:10:54Sorry.
00:10:55I've forgotten your name.
00:10:57Please leave.
00:11:00She knows what she did wrong.
00:11:02It won't happen again.
00:11:04Please.
00:11:05Tina, go on.
00:11:07Latest data shows over 30% of eligible women leave the workforce due to family and childbirth
00:11:12pressures.
00:11:13This systemic inequality squanders talent and costs society dearly.
00:11:20Lightspeed will sponsor the initiative.
00:11:22The new professional line becomes a narrative threat.
00:11:24So everyone who supports the cause learns the brand's story.
00:11:39What are you two now?
00:11:41That's Mr. Davis' coffee.
00:11:43Put it down.
00:11:44Mr. Davis gave it to Tina.
00:11:46Why are you in such a hurry?
00:12:06I'm in turning department.
00:12:08Tina speaking.
00:12:10Tina, it's me.
00:12:13Mr. Davis.
00:12:15Have you eaten?
00:12:16Is there something work-related?
00:12:19Well, regarding the collaboration, within three days, I want a refined budget and I want
00:12:24clear projections.
00:12:25I'll need more specifics.
00:12:27Could we have a detailed brief?
00:12:28Well, as you're the head planner, you should be able to source and perfect your own information.
00:12:32Effective research comes from reliable data.
00:12:35If your input is vague, I can't fabricate numbers.
00:12:37I don't know why I talk to you about work.
00:12:39You take work so seriously.
00:12:41If there's nothing about my work, goodnight, Mr. Davis.
00:12:44Do you know why I insist on this project?
00:12:51Do you know why I insist on this project?
00:12:54Lightspeed needs a breakthrough and sharper positioning.
00:12:57Apart from that?
00:12:59Beyond that, I'm unaware.
00:13:02You know exactly what I mean.
00:13:05Strictly work, Mr. Davis.
00:13:09Fine.
00:13:10Make a plan and I'll wait for you.
00:13:17Who's that?
00:13:19No one.
00:13:20Just a tricky client.
00:13:23Clients?
00:13:24It's the middle of the night.
00:13:26What clients?
00:13:27If you've rested enough, get up and get back to work.
00:13:39Squirrels.
00:13:39Cute.
00:13:41Squirrels.
00:13:44That one with the papers is basically us.
00:13:47And the tail snipped one, unreasonable demands.
00:13:51He'll understand.
00:13:53He?
00:13:54You mean, Mr. Davis?
00:13:58Never mind.
00:13:59Check that spreadsheet, please.
00:14:02So, what are you two now?
00:14:05Not just client and agency, that's for sure.
00:14:08Overthinking.
00:14:09Strictly work.
00:14:10Did he give you squirrel merch?
00:14:12Did you raise a squirrel together?
00:14:14Because I could write an 80-page drama on this, so spill.
00:14:21Well, university days.
00:14:22I sketched during lectures.
00:14:25Edward always knew what I'd draw.
00:14:27Said my pictures spoke louder than my words.
00:14:30Aha!
00:14:30So he assigned this project to you to stay in your orbit.
00:14:34Not what you think.
00:14:36That's why my pictures...
00:14:39Closed.
00:14:40Closed, my foot.
00:14:41Details, please.
00:14:44Closed, please.
00:14:45Those days.
00:14:46I'll never forget them.
00:14:49So, library meet cute?
00:14:51Society activity?
00:14:53Neither.
00:14:53Debating contest.
00:14:55He was affirmative.
00:14:56I was negative.
00:14:58Sparks flew, eh?
00:14:59He was brilliant.
00:15:00Almost demolished me.
00:15:02And then?
00:15:04That was when I decided
00:15:05I would stop in nothing to win his heart.
00:15:10I started provoking him, sat across him from study hall, slipped him notes, extra evidence,
00:15:19nitpicks, and my phone number. Academic veneer, romanticor. I called it seeking intellectual
00:15:28combat, and maybe your boyfriend's poker face melted. So how did it end?
00:15:42This is the final fight you meant. I bought it. It's the closest one available. No more crowded
00:15:48buses for you. And we could turn the entire floor into your own private library. I'm so
00:15:54thoughtful. I'm sorry? Private library. He was the heir to a conglomerate, and I was just
00:16:07ordinary. I knew I'd just be a brief chapter in his life, and I thought it would be best
00:16:13to end it early. That's fear, not logic. So you dumped him? Yes. How could you?
00:16:25And you loved each other. Morning. Sleepy head.
00:16:40All finished? Fresh off the press. Neat saving to the folder.
00:16:49This is excellent work. You two have done very well. Why don't you go get some rest? We'll
00:16:57tidy this up. But the meeting's this afternoon. I still have to prepare my presentation.
00:17:02Don't worry. Get some rest. You need to have your energy for this afternoon's meeting.
00:17:07You're right. Thank you, director.
00:17:27He doesn't look thrilled.
00:17:30Tino, look. Tino, look. Tino, look. That's our proposal, but it says Isabella's name on
00:17:40it.
00:17:44Someone care to explain? Mr. Thompson, is this your latest proposal? Indeed, sir. Ms. Carter
00:17:53poured her heart into it. An all-nighter, in fact. It's my very best work.
00:17:58Well, her heart is impressive. What?
00:18:04Inaccurate data. Fuzzy positioning and scattered targets. How could you bring this to me?
00:18:10Edward, you can't say that. There's never been anything wrong with my proposal.
00:18:15Surely this is a misunderstanding. I don't misunderstand work. Since you don't know what women need in
00:18:22the workplace. I'll show you. That's your art, Tina.
00:18:28That's the career handbook that was in the papers recently. I recall so many companies
00:18:36offered to buy the rights, but the author wouldn't sell. Of all people, it was Tina.
00:18:43Correct. This is the career guide that won so many fans on campus, and it was written by
00:18:50Tina Green. Impossible. Who does she think she is?
00:18:55This project belongs to her.
00:19:01If it wasn't for Tina Green, I'd pull this project immediately.
00:19:05What right does she have? She's just some junior planner. She doesn't even have a proper title.
00:19:10She can't possibly be qualified to take on such a big project. I'm the chief planner.
00:19:15Your company's benchmark for chief is questionable.
00:19:21Surely there's a misunderstanding here. At Almond, we pride ourselves on our commitment to collaboration.
00:19:28Mr. Thompson, I have two conditions.
00:19:30One, Tina has full authority.
00:19:32And number two, I will only work with the chief planner.
00:19:42Partners, colleagues. Today, Ms. Tina Green is officially promoted to chief planner at Almond.
00:19:50Oh, wow. This is the company.
00:19:56So, can chief planner Tina now represent your company in handling this project?
00:20:07Tina, you ready yet? Hurry. We still have location scouting.
00:20:14Tina? You okay?
00:20:20Tina? Oh, my God. Tina, what happened?
00:20:23My stomach hurts so much.
00:20:26I'll get your medicine. Where is it?
00:20:28Sure.
00:20:30I bet you went to the table.
00:20:31Bedroom.
00:20:44Which drawer? I can't find it.
00:20:46Tina, I can't find it. What do I do?
00:20:49Oh, no.
00:20:53Please.
00:21:05Tina?
00:21:08Tina, are you okay?
00:21:10Mr. Davis?
00:21:11Tina's sick.
00:21:12Really bad stomach pain. I can't find her men.
00:21:14What's her address?
00:21:16Flat, 4B.
00:21:1727 Ravens, Crossroad.
00:21:19Okay, I'll be there right away.
00:21:21How do you know the address?
00:21:22Hello? Hello?
00:21:26Tina?
00:21:27Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
00:21:29Tina, Tina.
00:21:31Tina!
00:21:33Tina!
00:21:34Tina!
00:21:35Mr. Davis, how'd you get here so fast?
00:21:37How'd you get this bad?
00:21:38Tina!
00:21:39Hey, hey, hey.
00:21:40Edward.
00:22:08Mr. Davis?
00:22:10Mr. Davis?
00:22:11It's the cramps.
00:22:21Tina, take this.
00:22:23You feel better.
00:22:25The heat patch, painkillers.
00:22:28How did you know where everything was?
00:22:31She's always had this.
00:22:33Always?
00:22:36One time at uni,
00:22:39she fell into an icy lake
00:22:41and ever since, her periods have been brutal.
00:22:44So that's why she's always in pain.
00:22:49She keeps him in there.
00:22:52She's the type that once she's made her mind up on something,
00:22:54she never changes it.
00:22:58Even if she decides to leave you.
00:23:13Good morning.
00:23:15What are you doing in my apartment?
00:23:18Last night you...
00:23:19Who let you in?
00:23:21Judy?
00:23:23Or...
00:23:23Was it me?
00:23:25Judy called me on your phone.
00:23:28Oh, was it because...
00:23:30Wait, you remember my address.
00:23:32Well, I...
00:23:33Tina, are you awake?
00:23:35I brought breakfast.
00:23:38Uh, hi, Mr. Edward.
00:23:39You're here too.
00:23:41Um, I hope I didn't come at a bad time.
00:23:43Uh, well...
00:23:57Uh...
00:23:57Well...
00:23:58You have no idea.
00:23:58Last night, you were white as a sheet.
00:24:02He dashed in and scooped you up into his arms.
00:24:06It was more touching than any TV drama.
00:24:10That heat patch.
00:24:12Painkillers.
00:24:12You knew exactly where they were.
00:24:14And he stayed by your sight all night.
00:24:17Rubbing your stomach.
00:24:19His eyes were bloodshot.
00:24:22Definitely still has feelings for you.
00:24:28Who's at that?
00:24:33See, I told you you still liked to.
00:24:35You just walked in.
00:24:36Feeling any better?
00:24:38Much better.
00:24:39Uh...
00:24:39What's this?
00:24:42You bought all this...
00:24:44for me?
00:24:45I always did this for you.
00:24:47And I would like to keep doing it for you.
00:24:50If you let me.
00:24:52Wow, Mr. Davis.
00:24:53You are thorough.
00:24:55Brought you tampons.
00:24:59I just remembered.
00:25:00I have a Russian amendment back at the office.
00:25:04Mustache.
00:25:04Bye.
00:25:07Yeah.
00:25:08Let me take that.
00:25:14I got you some hot milk.
00:25:17You still...
00:25:18remember my favorite?
00:25:20I always remember.
00:25:28Why?
00:25:29We broke up years ago.
00:25:31Some things are kind of hard to forget.
00:25:34Let's...
00:25:35not rehash the past.
00:25:37We work together now.
00:25:39Nothing else.
00:25:40Just work?
00:25:42Okay, then...
00:25:43show me the proposal.
00:25:46It's not polished yet.
00:25:47It needs revision.
00:25:51Break the mold.
00:25:52No, Edward.
00:25:53Women's...
00:25:54Undefined power of women at work.
00:25:56Look, okay, alright.
00:25:58I'll see it eventually.
00:25:59Why don't we just sit down?
00:26:05How are you feeling?
00:26:08Still a bit dizzy.
00:26:25The star is my heart.
00:26:27Edward, may it follow you wherever you go.
00:26:30You have my word.
00:26:32I won't disappoint you.
00:26:36I won't disappoint you.
00:26:37I won't disappoint you.
00:26:39You still wear it.
00:26:41After all those years.
00:26:43I thought you forgot.
00:26:46I wear it to remind myself of what you did to me.
00:26:52I wear it to remind myself of what you did to me.
00:26:56What I did to you...
00:26:59I simply faced reality.
00:27:02Reality?
00:27:03Reality is you cast me aside like I was nothing.
00:27:06And you didn't even give me a chance to explain myself.
00:27:09What good was explaining?
00:27:11We were never from the same world.
00:27:13From the same world?
00:27:14That's all I get after all these years.
00:27:17Rich people like you will never understand what regular people like me go through.
00:27:21You need to forget that this...
00:27:24was ever a thing.
00:27:26And that isn't yours to wear.
00:27:29You are still so stubborn.
00:27:33Look at you.
00:27:35Tailored suits.
00:27:36Lightspeed CEO.
00:27:38You're fine.
00:27:39Do you think I asked for these titles?
00:27:41Do you think I wanted to be CEO?
00:27:45From start to finish, you never understood what I really wanted.
00:27:49I do understand.
00:27:51I do understand.
00:27:52I do understand.
00:27:54I do understand.
00:27:57Out.
00:28:07Out.
00:28:09Out.
00:28:10Out.
00:28:16Out.
00:28:20Out.
00:28:27Out.
00:28:29Out.
00:28:31Out.
00:28:33Out.
00:28:34Out.
00:28:34Out.
00:28:36Out.
00:28:37Out.
00:28:37Out.
00:28:39Out.
00:28:42Out.
00:28:43Out.
00:28:44that you already took it. That's consent.
00:28:58Why do I keep it all this time?
00:29:09Hello?
00:29:10You know, where are you?
00:29:14Tina, where are you?
00:29:18Tina!
00:29:19Oh gee, right here? What happened?
00:29:21Isabella's father slash board member just arrived.
00:29:24Our project might change hands.
00:29:42Wrong well, if it is an almond star platter.
00:29:46Cycling to work? How cute.
00:29:49Your canvas totally matches your status.
00:29:51My attire has nothing to do with my proposal.
00:29:54You have no right to-
00:29:55No right?
00:29:56I'll show you exactly what right means.
00:30:00Why are these two useless humans in my way?
00:30:05Tina! Are you okay?
00:30:15Oops, I'm so sorry. My bodyguard can be a little hazy.
00:30:19You don't mind though, do you?
00:30:21I guess you can't very well have a stained shirt in the meeting.
00:30:25Go buy her a new one and make sure it costs ten times more than what she's wearing.
00:30:29It'll probably be the priciest thing she ever wears.
00:30:32Business.
00:30:38She did that on purpose.
00:30:40It's fine, it's-
00:30:42It's fine?
00:30:43How are you gonna face everyone?
00:30:45The meeting starts in a few minutes.
00:30:48No time to change.
00:30:52A planner wins with skill, not style.
00:31:07All men project review now in session.
00:31:18Next, please welcome one of our chief planners, Ms. Isabella, to present her Women's Employment Empowerment Project.
00:31:31I am delighted to present my carefully crafted plan on the Women's Employment Empowerment Project titled Breaking the Mold, Unbinding
00:31:40Her Power.
00:31:41That's our proposal title.
00:31:43Our project aims to break conventional employment and workwear concepts, giving women equal opportunities and appropriate attire for every workplace.
00:31:53Therefore, our core strategy is to hire only women and create a fully female work environment.
00:31:59That was amazing, honey.
00:32:02Isn't my daughter greats?
00:32:03You!
00:32:04What's your-
00:32:05Judy, some lofty opinions?
00:32:08Or Tina, perhaps you have some objections to my plan?
00:32:13Yes, I have something to say.
00:32:18Yes, I have something to say.
00:32:21Some may find our strategy too bold, but only boldness proves Almond's resolve and forges a unique market edge.
00:32:29I think it's excellent.
00:32:35Any different views?
00:32:40Given the project's nature and Almond's status, only boldness will give shocking effects.
00:32:46Something a slogan shouting Tina could never achieve.
00:32:51Isabella's bold strategy is indeed shocking.
00:32:57So shocking that Almond may wear the label of reverse discrimination.
00:33:02Reverse discrimination?
00:33:03That's serious!
00:33:05Tina, what do you mean?
00:33:07Do you mean to seize power, you would abandon your persona and speak for men?
00:33:11My meaning is clear, Isabella.
00:33:14Using extremes to fight injustice only breeds new injustice.
00:33:18Tearing apart a society that needs unity.
00:33:25Isabella, your women-only charter may grab attention, but it pits women against men on another scale.
00:33:32Well.
00:33:32Well said.
00:33:34I have 50 corporate endorsements and resources.
00:33:37They'll post women-only ads and supply jobs.
00:33:41Tina, what do you have?
00:33:43That's not empowerment.
00:33:45It just shoves women into another extreme.
00:33:47Labeled privilege.
00:33:49When a trend fails, the backlash will be harsher.
00:33:54True equality comes from fair systems in hiring, benefits, and promotion.
00:33:59From blind, gender-neutral assessments.
00:34:02Not from gender privilege.
00:34:06Otherwise, the public will mock us.
00:34:09True fairness comes from blind selection and gender-free evaluation.
00:34:19Lightspeed values, fairness, and efficiency.
00:34:23If a project is founded on reverse discrimination, it cannot gain respect.
00:34:29You're denying Allman's efforts.
00:34:31I'm stating facts.
00:34:32A flawed plan remains flawed, however shiny.
00:34:37Dad.
00:34:38Mr. Dix, haven't you taken this all too far?
00:34:41It's the truth.
00:34:43And remember, Isabella was never my chosen planner.
00:34:49It was always Tina.
00:34:53Edward, what do you need?
00:34:55Stop wasting time.
00:34:57Tina is my planner.
00:34:59Continue these tricks, and Lightspeed will stop any collaboration.
00:35:03Peter, why keep changing planners?
00:35:08Proposal re-evaluation.
00:35:10Meeting adjourned.
00:35:11It's true.
00:35:12Don't be cocky.
00:35:16You are amazing!
00:35:18Mr. Davis had your back.
00:35:19He simply spoke truth.
00:35:23Why is he leaving so fast?
00:35:25Did you have a fight?
00:35:27No.
00:35:28Why did he leave without saying goodbye to us?
00:35:31Maybe urgent business?
00:35:38Tina, we're screwed.
00:35:40What is it?
00:35:41Our key visual and copy all replaced.
00:35:43What? Like what?
00:35:44What makes an elite woman?
00:35:45Check your mail.
00:35:51What is this?
00:35:52The design team said that director Isabella ordered it overnight.
00:36:00What did you do?
00:36:03What did I do?
00:36:04Just planning director's duty.
00:36:06Those sponsors are my resources.
00:36:09They pick the materials.
00:36:11So if you object, well, impossible.
00:36:15Isabella?
00:36:16Don't go too far.
00:36:18Too far?
00:36:19I'm just showing you the workplace isn't simple.
00:36:22Just wait, Tina Green.
00:36:24This is only the beginning.
00:36:25Think this wins you the project?
00:36:27I'm just showing you reality.
00:36:29Do you really think your shabby proposal will please him?
00:36:33Edward's favor is not going to help you at all.
00:36:36The Davis family has been rich for generations.
00:36:39Have you ever heard of being well-matched?
00:36:41Shut up.
00:36:42If I hit a nerve.
00:36:44A nobody with no background could never end up with Edward.
00:36:49Stop dreaming.
00:36:50You're not worthy.
00:36:52Sure.
00:36:53I'm no spoiled brat like you.
00:36:56No rich father to wreck other people's hard work.
00:36:59Everything I have, I earned.
00:37:02Isabella, you're pathetic.
00:37:03Okay.
00:37:05Enough!
00:37:08Enough!
00:37:10Isabella, let me make this clear for everyone's sake.
00:37:14My company has not a single connection to the Davis family.
00:37:17Lightspeed was founded entirely by me.
00:37:20With my own money,
00:37:22you have no right to meddle in my business or my choices.
00:37:27You?
00:37:28Alone?
00:37:30How?
00:37:31Family shackles
00:37:33once cost me the most important person.
00:37:36I used to believe that
00:37:38if I worked hard enough
00:37:40I could escape anything.
00:37:44But reality has shown me
00:37:47once you're bounded by the shackles of family
00:37:50it's almost impossible to break free.
00:37:53Your well-matched talk means nothing to me.
00:37:57Impossible.
00:37:58You could never have started a company without your family.
00:38:02Lightspeed must look back at all.
00:38:04From day one,
00:38:05Lightspeed has had one shareholder.
00:38:08Me.
00:38:09No Davis assets were involved.
00:38:12Edward,
00:38:13you did all that.
00:38:15You should have told me you did all that.
00:38:17Every step I take
00:38:18is so I can stand in front of you.
00:38:21Me?
00:38:21You.
00:38:23You.
00:38:23And you.
00:38:25Tina.
00:38:27I want you to know that we can start again.
00:38:33Tina.
00:38:35I want you to know that we can start again.
00:38:39Even if Lightspeed is clean.
00:38:42Didn't you seduce Edward?
00:38:44Are you clean, Tina?
00:38:47Your behavior is absolutely unprofessional.
00:38:50Spreading lies in public?
00:38:52Publicly defaming women's character?
00:38:54Where is this noble virtue you so proudly present to have?
00:38:57I'm just speaking the truth.
00:38:59Do you care to deny it?
00:39:01By bringing your personal vendettas into the workplace,
00:39:03you are proving to be an unfit planner.
00:39:06I demand that you step down from this project immediately.
00:39:09On what grounds?
00:39:10On the grounds that I'm project leader.
00:39:13Don't be smug, Tina Green.
00:39:15I will show you the cost.
00:39:16Every step you take now ruins your future.
00:39:19I'm chief planner. She stole my project.
00:39:21I stole?
00:39:22I never stole.
00:39:24You're arrogant,
00:39:26conceited,
00:39:27and pitiful.
00:39:30You've taken this too far.
00:39:33Fine.
00:39:34I'll make you regret this, Tina Green.
00:39:37I will make sure you never have any standing in this industry.
00:39:48Could you fix those fairy lights, please?
00:39:52Go home, Judy.
00:39:54It's fine. I'll finish up.
00:39:55Sure.
00:39:56Go rest.
00:39:57Thank you so much.
00:40:13Hello?
00:40:18Anyone...
00:40:18there?
00:40:22Hey, hey, Tina.
00:40:24It's me.
00:40:38You're okay?
00:40:40Edward.
00:40:42Why are you here?
00:40:44The power cut out and I wanted to check on you.
00:40:48How did you know I was insane?
00:40:51I wait for you here every day.
00:40:54Every day?
00:40:55Yeah.
00:40:56Every day.
00:40:58And you're always the last one to leave.
00:41:00You really don't have to.
00:41:04I'll go and...
00:41:06No, no.
00:41:07No, no, no.
00:41:09No.
00:41:13Whatever.
00:41:14Something's wrong.
00:41:17Uh...
00:41:19Yeah, um, I'll go check.
00:41:24Wait.
00:41:26Come with me.
00:41:36Something's wrong.
00:41:37Someone sabotaged it?
00:41:39Yeah.
00:41:40These wires aren't from the same batch.
00:41:42Whoever at Rhodes wants you to fail.
00:41:44Could it be Isabella?
00:41:49It could be.
00:41:51What now?
00:41:52The doors are electric.
00:41:53We're trapped.
00:41:57Hey.
00:41:59Tina.
00:42:15It's been so long since I've held you.
00:42:19How long has it been?
00:42:22Years.
00:42:23It feels like yesterday we were on campus together.
00:42:26I still don't remember.
00:42:29I remember everything.
00:42:34What do we do now?
00:42:36I'll figure something out.
00:42:42So, do you really wait for me here every day?
00:42:45Yeah, well, I kind of get worried something might happen to you.
00:42:49You really don't have to.
00:42:50Yeah, I do.
00:42:51Do you remember what happened at uni?
00:42:52In the library?
00:42:53Mm-hmm.
00:42:54Yeah, and the lights cut out and you dived under the table.
00:42:56I did not.
00:42:57I was looking for you everywhere and when I found you, you were under the table like a kitten.
00:43:01Don't pretend like you weren't scared.
00:43:02You were screaming my name the whole time.
00:43:04Yeah, but I was just worried for you.
00:43:07I thought you'd run away.
00:43:10How could I?
00:43:12I waited for you every day.
00:43:21That wasn't your only stealing moment.
00:43:23Oh, yeah?
00:43:25Remember when you tried to steal that book from me and spilled coffee all over the professor's paper?
00:43:29Yeah, but that wasn't just my fault, if you remember.
00:43:32You yanked the book so hard that it just fell out of my head.
00:43:35Oh, right.
00:43:35So, it's all my fault.
00:43:36Yeah.
00:43:37We spent the whole week cleaning that library.
00:43:42Back then, I thought we'd always stay that way.
00:43:48Tina.
00:43:52When you left, I was stunned.
00:43:57I pictured our whole life together.
00:44:00I never thought you wouldn't be in it.
00:44:03We belong to different worlds.
00:44:06You're brilliant.
00:44:07Tonight, your future is bright, and I'm just ordinary.
00:44:14I felt I'm staying with you what only holds you by.
00:44:21Tina.
00:44:23Can we start over?
00:44:30Tina.
00:44:32Could we start over?
00:44:37I bought the necklace.
00:44:39Hope the money lasts for a month, and I need another job.
00:44:45Tina.
00:44:47Edward.
00:44:48Here.
00:44:50What's this?
00:44:52For me?
00:44:53Mm-hmm.
00:44:54Aw.
00:44:55Match it.
00:44:57Birthday present.
00:44:58I saved up for it, but I bought it.
00:45:01The star is my heart.
00:45:03Edward, may it follow you wherever you go.
00:45:07You have my word.
00:45:08I won't disappoint you.
00:45:13Oh, you said you wanted to flatten your campus, right?
00:45:16I did my homework.
00:45:18I found a cheap one here.
00:45:20We could turn the living room like this,
00:45:22and turn the backing into a garden,
00:45:23and we could...
00:45:25I bought it.
00:45:27This is the final flat you meant.
00:45:28Yeah.
00:45:29No.
00:45:30I bought it.
00:45:32No more crowded buses for you.
00:45:34Closest one available.
00:45:35We could turn the entire floor into your own private library.
00:45:39I'm so thoughtful, aren't I?
00:45:41Private library.
00:45:49I have to ask.
00:45:53Can we?
00:45:55Edward.
00:45:56Stop.
00:45:59I have to ask.
00:46:02Can we?
00:46:13Power's back.
00:46:15Good.
00:46:18Now the expo can proceed smoothly.
00:46:20But, Tina.
00:46:21I'll double-check the lights before the show,
00:46:23and, Mr. Davis, if you have any other requests,
00:46:26just let me know.
00:46:26I'll refine the plan.
00:46:27All right.
00:46:28But...
00:46:29If there's nothing else,
00:46:30I'll be off.
00:46:32Why are you leaving in such a rush?
00:46:34It's late.
00:46:35I have to finish tomorrow's work.
00:46:38And, oh, Mr. Davis.
00:46:43Try to get some rest.
00:46:47Good night.
00:46:50I almost gave in.
00:47:04Can we really go back?
00:47:29Tina, the expo black house hit local news.
00:47:32You okay?
00:47:35Are you okay?
00:47:38I'm fine.
00:47:40Edward stayed with me.
00:47:41Edward?
00:47:42What was he doing there?
00:47:44It's nothing.
00:47:45But he asked me if...
00:47:49Asked what?
00:47:50If you have a boyfriend?
00:47:51If you miss out?
00:47:52He asked me if we could start over.
00:47:57OMG!
00:47:58Start over?
00:48:00That is a request for reconciliation.
00:48:02The ship is sailing.
00:48:03I've moved.
00:48:04It's not what you think.
00:48:06I told you he likes you.
00:48:08He basically said,
00:48:09can we start again?
00:48:10No.
00:48:11The lights came back on.
00:48:12He didn't finish.
00:48:13So?
00:48:13Message received.
00:48:15And what about you?
00:48:17Do you still love him?
00:48:25Tina, you didn't answer me.
00:48:27Do you still love him?
00:48:29I...
00:48:30I...
00:48:31I don't know.
00:48:33Don't know?
00:48:34Listen to yourself.
00:48:36That necklace, you still wear it.
00:48:38Isn't that affection?
00:48:39That's all in the past.
00:48:41I...
00:48:41The past?
00:48:43You're all tied up in knots right now.
00:48:45Edward might be sharp-tongued and even ice cold,
00:48:48but he did stay with you for the whole blackout.
00:48:51And he gave you that half-line.
00:48:54Tina, you're in his heart.
00:48:57But we split because we're from different worlds.
00:49:00What matters is genuine feeling.
00:49:03Mutual support.
00:49:05Think.
00:49:06He became your client just to back you up.
00:49:09Not every boss would do that.
00:49:11That's confusing.
00:49:14Confusion equals love.
00:49:17Stop overthinking.
00:49:19Just say it.
00:49:21Do you still love him?
00:49:30Hello, Edward?
00:49:34Hello, Edward?
00:49:37Mr. Davis?
00:49:39Ah, Tina.
00:49:41Sorry for calling late.
00:49:42I was, um...
00:49:43I just wanted to talk about the expo.
00:49:45We've had the wires checked
00:49:46and we've got new lights fitted,
00:49:48so no more incidents.
00:49:51Oh!
00:49:53Um, I should have handled that.
00:49:55Sorry to trouble you.
00:49:56Oh, yeah, it's fine.
00:50:00You once, uh,
00:50:01told me that you like that patisserie's cake.
00:50:05I was wondering if...
00:50:08maybe...
00:50:08you would like to go together?
00:50:13You could buy one
00:50:16and bring it over to my place.
00:50:17We could eat together.
00:50:20Wait.
00:50:21What?
00:50:22Say that again.
00:50:23I...
00:50:24I said...
00:50:25Deal.
00:50:26What?
00:50:27You're trapped now.
00:50:30Tina.
00:50:32We could...
00:50:34I said you could bring it over.
00:50:39Oh, my God.
00:50:40She said it.
00:50:40She really said it.
00:50:42Oh.
00:50:44All right.
00:50:46Um...
00:50:47I'd really like to see you.
00:50:51Uh, are...
00:50:52Are you okay?
00:50:52What awful lines.
00:50:54Stop making it worse.
00:50:56So, tomorrow then?
00:50:59I'll wait for you.
00:51:00Mm-hmm.
00:51:02Good night.
00:51:10Girl, you are in love!
00:51:13No!
00:51:14Thanks!
00:51:15Monsense.
00:51:17Look at you.
00:51:19That necklace will wear away.
00:51:22No!
00:51:23No!
00:51:24No!
00:51:25No!
00:51:26No!
00:51:27No!
00:51:29No!
00:51:36I'll see you tomorrow, Tina.
00:51:45Shift panel A, three centimeters left.
00:51:49Sound, background volume lower.
00:51:54All staff first guests arrive in time.
00:52:00Edwin.
00:52:03Surprised to see me?
00:52:05What are you doing?
00:52:06I told you how long this is.
00:52:08I'm here to witness a top hands bow.
00:52:10I want to see every step of your success.
00:52:13Edwin, what?
00:52:14I know.
00:52:15Therefore,
00:52:17I'm a guest.
00:52:18Heading in.
00:52:21Well, well, well, Tina.
00:52:23This whole show,
00:52:25and yet you still need your boyfriend
00:52:26to prop you up.
00:52:29I guess some women just can't do anything
00:52:31without a man.
00:52:32Isabella,
00:52:33by making things hard for Tina,
00:52:35you make things very hard for me.
00:52:37Those who spend their lifetime slandering others
00:52:39should really think about focusing on themselves.
00:52:47Go.
00:52:48Your stage is waiting.
00:52:53All departments,
00:52:54expo and I'm commencing.
00:53:03Planetina,
00:53:04audience response is huge.
00:53:06What's your unique take on
00:53:08not being defined
00:53:09is the definition of a profession?
00:53:11I believe women's power is limitless.
00:53:14Employment is not only for survival.
00:53:16It's self-realization
00:53:17and freedom.
00:53:19We hope this event shows women
00:53:21their true potential
00:53:22and pushes them to step forward.
00:53:24What made these events so successful?
00:53:26Team Efrat Alman.
00:53:28And special thanks to Lightspeed
00:53:30and President Edward Dingles,
00:53:32whose trust made the new
00:53:34professional women's vision possible.
00:53:43You did it.
00:53:44You're number one.
00:53:46It's time.
00:53:53Mark my words,
00:53:54she's going to fail miserably.
00:54:04Wait!
00:54:06This whole expo
00:54:08is a pure show.
00:54:10Almond and their distinguished planner,
00:54:12Tina Green,
00:54:13have stolen my concept.
00:54:16She has no right
00:54:17to host this event.
00:54:19What's going on?
00:54:20Breaking news.
00:54:21Who is this woman?
00:54:24Let Tina talk.
00:54:25Stay out of it.
00:54:28Look.
00:54:30These are my slides
00:54:32from my private meeting
00:54:33with Mr. Edward Davis.
00:54:37Tina Green
00:54:39plagiarized my original concept.
00:54:40She's a fraud
00:54:42and a liar.
00:54:44A liar.
00:54:47Liar.
00:54:50Please be quiet.
00:54:52I'm Tina Green,
00:54:54planner at Almond.
00:54:55What you see today
00:54:57is my own project
00:54:58on women's employment.
00:55:01She says I stole her idea.
00:55:04That I lack qualifications.
00:55:06Yes,
00:55:08inside Almond,
00:55:09I've been inexperienced,
00:55:10even suppressed.
00:55:12My proposal
00:55:13was killed
00:55:14again and again.
00:55:16Seven times.
00:55:18Seven complete rejections
00:55:21of my work.
00:55:32I have no backing,
00:55:35only effort
00:55:36and persistence.
00:55:38I started with
00:55:40tiny charity events,
00:55:41building experience
00:55:42piece by piece.
00:55:43Every project
00:55:44is my blood
00:55:46and sleepless nights.
00:55:48There is no fakery,
00:55:50no theft.
00:55:52If you doubt me,
00:55:54show real evidence.
00:55:58Otherwise,
00:55:59I will pursue
00:56:00legal action.
00:56:05Is there internal
00:56:06suppression at Almond?
00:56:08The truth is being hidden?
00:56:10Tina,
00:56:10why are you so angry?
00:56:12Everyone can see
00:56:13your guilty pen.
00:56:15She may hide
00:56:16behind powerful
00:56:17corporations
00:56:18and men.
00:56:19But she is exploiting
00:56:20women's issues
00:56:21for clout.
00:56:24Dream on
00:56:25if you think
00:56:26this event
00:56:26whitewashes the truth.
00:56:28Serious allegation.
00:56:30So that's the story?
00:56:32Yes.
00:56:34As you suspect,
00:56:36Tina Green
00:56:37has climbed
00:56:38the corporate ladder
00:56:39on the arms
00:56:40of a man,
00:56:41Edward Davis,
00:56:42her ex-boyfriend.
00:56:44she's used
00:56:45every trick in the book
00:56:47to shove someone
00:56:48with far superior
00:56:50credentials
00:56:50out of the way.
00:56:53Don't believe
00:56:54her nonsense.
00:56:55Stop filming.
00:56:57People like her
00:56:58have no place
00:56:59in our industry.
00:57:05Ladies and gentlemen,
00:57:07may I say
00:57:07a few words.
00:57:10Ladies and gentlemen,
00:57:12may I say
00:57:12a few words.
00:57:14I'm Hartley,
00:57:15director of the
00:57:16nursing home,
00:57:17and I would like
00:57:18to speak of
00:57:19Almond and
00:57:19Miss Tina's
00:57:20unseen contributions.
00:57:24Mrs. Hartley,
00:57:25what are you doing here?
00:57:26For a long time,
00:57:27Tina has driven
00:57:28the women's
00:57:29re-employment
00:57:30support program
00:57:31inside Almond,
00:57:32never giving up,
00:57:34despite setbacks.
00:57:36That's not
00:57:37Almond's prior publicity.
00:57:38And that's not
00:57:39what Isabella just said.
00:57:40Well,
00:57:41here are names.
00:57:43Women who've been
00:57:43laid off during pregnancy
00:57:45or unjustly terminated.
00:57:48Tina contacted us,
00:57:49secured jobs.
00:57:51Lisa,
00:57:52our carer,
00:57:52she was fired
00:57:54when she was
00:57:54seven months pregnant.
00:57:57Tina found her work.
00:57:59Charlotte.
00:58:00Oh, Charlotte,
00:58:01she wasn't able
00:58:02to return
00:58:02after giving birth.
00:58:04And Tina said,
00:58:06a woman's value
00:58:07is not defined
00:58:08by marriage
00:58:09or childbirth.
00:58:12This list is a record
00:58:13of all the women
00:58:15that Tina has helped
00:58:16re-employed,
00:58:17far more than just
00:58:18those few I've mentioned.
00:58:20That's impossible.
00:58:22If this isn't
00:58:23genuine action
00:58:24for equality,
00:58:25what is?
00:58:26Do you choose
00:58:27to believe someone
00:58:28who has done
00:58:29genuine nursing care
00:58:31for three years,
00:58:32her quiet,
00:58:33dedication,
00:58:34earning her the praise
00:58:36of every woman
00:58:37that she helped?
00:58:38Or will you erase
00:58:40her efforts
00:58:41and trust the slander
00:58:43that you've heard?
00:58:44I now return the floor
00:58:45to the woman
00:58:46who truly helps women,
00:58:48Miss Tina Green.
00:58:54Miss Green,
00:58:56any defense?
00:58:58Facts speak louder.
00:59:01All men invest greatly
00:59:02in the women's support plan.
00:59:04This is a team,
00:59:05even
00:59:09company effort.
00:59:20not being defined
00:59:21is the new definition
00:59:22of a profession.
00:59:24All men and light speed
00:59:25want every woman
00:59:26from different backgrounds
00:59:27and different ages

01:01:13Yeah, and Mr. Carter
01:01:14you're removed too, sir.
01:01:17This
01:01:18is ridiculous!
01:01:20Let go!
01:01:21I can go myself!
01:01:24You'll regret this, Tina.
01:01:26You witch!

01:01:35Ladies and gentlemen
01:01:36the launch
01:01:38is now concluded.
01:01:40Tina
01:01:41I need to talk to you.
01:01:45Tina
01:01:46We did it!
01:01:47Yes, we did it!
01:01:52Where's Edward?
01:01:53He said he needed to
01:01:54He's probably busy.
01:01:56Oh, uh
01:01:57let's tidy up!
01:01:58Ignore him!
01:02:00Be honest
01:02:02About
01:02:04After all he's done
01:02:05How do you feel now?
01:02:09I
01:02:10Guess I never really
01:02:11let go
01:02:13Back then
01:02:14I thought we'd be impossible
01:02:16He was a golden boy
01:02:17and I was just
01:02:19ordinary
01:02:20parallel lines
01:02:22I thought breaking up
01:02:23with him would just
01:02:24set him free
01:02:25Now you know
01:02:26He only cares about you
01:02:29Yes, but
01:02:30I'm still scared
01:02:31it's all an illusion
01:02:33Happiness is here
01:02:35Will you miss it again?
01:02:37What?
01:02:44Ready to talk?
01:02:52Tina
01:02:54Years ago
01:02:54you told me
01:02:55you didn't want to be
01:02:55Cinderella to someone's prince
01:02:57I wished I could have
01:02:59given you the life
01:02:59my parents gave me
01:03:01But now I see
01:03:02you just wanted equality
01:03:04and freedom
01:03:08I never thought
01:03:09our biggest barrier
01:03:09would be
01:03:10my birth
01:03:15I built Lightspeed
01:03:16for seven years
01:03:18so I could stand
01:03:19next to you
01:03:21So
01:03:23that's why?
01:03:26Edward, I

01:03:32and
01:03:33every time it feels

01:03:36when the dream ends
