00:00:05Hi, I'm Mia Parker.
00:00:07I always believed something good was just around the corner.
00:00:11Until...
00:00:23Oh my God, are you hurt?
00:00:38Seriously? You throw yourself at cars now?
00:00:41If you can't afford summer camp, fine.
00:00:44But this?
00:00:46Seriously?
00:00:47She probably thought one hit from the school's golden boy
00:00:50could get her out of her aunt's trailer before she gets thrown out for rent.
00:01:02You alright?
00:01:06I'm fine.
00:01:20Hey.
00:01:21Hey.
00:01:41What is this?
00:01:44Mia!
00:01:45Oh my God!
00:01:47Get lost!
00:01:53Look at me.
00:01:54Can you see clear?
00:01:59Yeah.
00:02:01A little too clearly.
00:02:03Shall we get in the car first?
00:02:18I'm taking you to urgent care.
00:02:20That guitar.
00:02:21Where did you get it?
00:02:26My cousin dumped it.
00:02:29It's busted.
00:02:31You can have it if you want.
00:02:36And one of the strings snapped too.
00:02:41But that price is real.
00:02:43I can make rent by myself.
00:02:44Take me to a music shop first.
00:02:46I'll split it with you.
00:02:48Split what?
00:02:50Cash.
00:02:57What do we have?
00:03:06I can do 200.
00:03:11200?
00:03:12No way!
00:03:17Resale through specialty shops only.
00:03:19We're leaving.
00:03:22What?
00:03:23Mia?
00:03:24200 bucks is already a lot.
00:03:27That's the market.
00:03:28Not my market.
00:03:36Sure, walk out.
00:03:37She really thinks she knows better than me?
00:03:41Mia, what's going on?
00:03:44This guy can't see what it is.
00:03:46And you can?
00:03:53I can see enough.
00:03:54Where do we go then?
00:04:09This is a bad idea.
00:04:11Stay close.
00:04:29We're closed soon.
00:04:33I'm selling.
00:04:34What is it?
00:04:39Kids bring junk all day.
00:04:41Go.
00:04:43Mia, I know you need rent fast.
00:04:45I can cover it first,
00:04:46and you can pay me back later.
00:04:47That guy looks like trouble.
00:04:48What if-
00:04:56Where'd you get this?
00:04:58How much?
00:05:02It's a limited run.
00:05:04If it's real, it's money.
00:05:05Cash?
00:05:06Receipt?
00:05:07Receipt?
00:05:08Today.
00:05:12Oh my god.
00:05:19Mia, what the hell?
00:05:23Exactly 7,500.
00:05:25Mia, this is amazing!
00:05:26With this money, you don't have to worry about rent anymore.
00:05:30We split.
00:05:31Like I said.
00:05:33I believe you now.
00:05:44You brought a guitar in here?
00:05:46Yeah?
00:05:48Yeah.
00:05:48Two girls.
00:05:49Coming here this late at night?
00:05:50You're brave.
00:05:51Or stupid.
00:05:53She's fine.
00:05:56You should have told me you were coming.
00:05:58I don't know you.
00:06:00You do now.
00:06:02I'm Jace.
00:06:03You are?
00:06:04Mia.
00:06:05Mia.
00:06:06We should go.
00:06:07He's the school's untouchable king.
00:06:10I have work.
00:06:11Vintage shop.
00:06:12Closing shift.
00:06:15Sorry, Mia.
00:06:15I can't go with you.
00:06:16My mom's calling.
00:06:17I have to go.
00:06:23It's dark.
00:06:24I can handle it.
00:06:27Get on.
00:06:28I'll drop you.
00:06:35Hold the back.
00:06:36Don't grab my arms.
00:06:38I know how motorcycles work.
00:06:41Sure you do.
00:06:55I'll drop you.
00:07:15Okay.
00:07:16Cool.
00:07:17Thanks.
00:07:17Bye.
00:07:32If this is real, I can make a lot more money.
00:07:37Test it.
00:07:40Oh my god.
00:07:41This radio was only $45.
00:07:43And it's worth $1,200?
00:07:53$3,400?
00:08:07I got all of this for $250.
00:08:10If I flip it for $7,500, then I make $7,250!
00:08:26You're slow.
00:08:28You're still here.
00:08:32That all trash?
00:08:34Depends who's looking.
00:08:40You think you can turn that bag into real cash?
00:08:44Then come watch.
00:08:52Back already?
00:08:56Check these.
00:09:03Where'd you get this?
00:09:05Same way I got the guitar.
00:09:06Legit.
00:09:07You got an eye.
00:09:20You do this every night?
00:09:22I do what I need.
00:09:23What do you need?
00:09:25Summer program.
00:09:26Application fees.
00:09:27Rent.
00:09:28A bed that doesn't shake when trucks pass.
00:09:30How short are you?
00:09:31How can I help you?
00:09:38Next time you come here, you tell me.
00:09:41Why?
00:09:42Because I said so.
00:09:44That's not a reason.
00:09:45Because this place is dangerous.
00:09:47So are you.
00:09:50Fair.
00:09:51You're different, Mia.
00:09:54I'll get you home first, then I'll see you after the AP Micronomics class tomorrow, okay?
00:10:08Morning, Mia.
00:10:09You're here early.
00:10:11Move.
00:10:11Move.
00:10:14What?
00:10:15Am I in your way?
00:10:16It's not like you can even afford the application fee, so...
00:10:22Wait.
00:10:23Where did you get that kind of...
00:10:24Inside.
00:10:26Now.
00:10:27We're starting.
00:10:35Market simulation.
00:10:3610 minutes.
00:10:37Highest return wins.
00:10:44Value.
00:10:45High of timed.
00:10:46Proof.
00:10:46Trend signal.
00:10:49Value.
00:10:56High of timed.
00:10:56Proof.
00:10:58You're fast.
00:11:07Nice speed.
00:11:09But you can't be faster than me.
00:11:10Stick to the facts.
00:11:17Bad?
00:11:18Oh!
00:11:19Mia must be crazy!
00:11:20That's Ethan, the top student in the whole school.
00:11:22Ethan, don't!
00:11:24Prom week.
00:11:24Winner picks one thing the loser has to do.
00:11:31Fine.
00:11:32One thing.
00:11:33Deal.
00:11:36Five minutes!
00:11:37Two minutes.
00:11:53Hands off.
00:11:54Results on screen.
00:12:02No way!
00:12:04Ni hao!
00:12:08That's a glitch!
00:12:10No glitch.
00:12:11That's execution.
00:12:12Someone in this class actually knows what they're doing.
00:12:15You won.
00:12:16Name your thing.
00:12:17You're bringing me to prom.
00:12:20That's it?
00:12:21You said one thing.
00:12:23Ethan!
00:12:24Fine.
00:12:24Fine.
00:12:24And at prom, you introduced me to the visiting admissions reps.
00:12:28That's why?
00:12:28That's why.
00:12:34Wow!
00:12:35Look at you!
00:12:36Didn't see that coming, Mia.
00:12:38Going to prom with the golden boy in school?
00:12:39That has to be the biggest moment of your life.
00:12:42Is that so?
00:12:52You and Ethan?
00:12:53Ace never shows up for this stuff.
00:12:55Why is he circling her too?
00:12:57I still have a chance though, right?
00:13:05Jace!
00:13:06Hi!
00:13:06I'm Blair Hearts.
00:13:08My father is-
00:13:08I know.
00:13:09Hearts' second daughter.
00:13:11Anymore.
00:13:18Anymore.
00:13:20Anymore.
00:13:21Wait.
00:13:22We're doing prom shopping tomorrow.
00:13:24Come with us.
00:13:25Can we see-
00:13:25cheer?
00:13:27Sure.
00:13:28Great.
00:13:29We'll see you at the mall.
00:13:32This is a set up.
00:13:33I know.
00:13:34Let's see what they've got.
00:13:36Hey.
00:13:37I love your friends!
00:13:39Hi.
00:13:40Why even bring this hillbilly here?
00:13:42She probably couldn't afford a shoelace in this place.
00:13:49Of course I brought her here.
00:13:52Our little prom princess deserves to be dressed properly for tomorrow night.
00:13:57Oh.
00:13:58Right.
00:14:10Mia, try this.
00:14:20No.
00:14:21Excuse me?
00:14:22The world doesn't revolve around me.
00:14:29That blast costs money, sure.
00:14:31Shame it makes you look washed out.
00:14:35What did you say?
00:14:45This is the one.
00:14:46Better color, better shape.
00:14:48Wait.
00:14:49She's right.
00:14:50That actually is cute.
00:15:00Oh my god.
00:15:01Yeah.
00:15:02Would you please choose something for me?
00:15:03Of course.
00:15:06How are you doing this?
00:15:08I'm paying attention.
00:15:12We're not here for your make-up show.
00:15:14Then don't watch.
00:15:21Everyone.
00:15:23Accessories next.
00:15:25Anyone can get lucky with clothes.
00:15:27But luxury takes an educated eye.
00:15:37Yeah.
00:15:38I know.
00:15:41Pick something.
00:15:43Don't be weird.
00:15:46Wow.
00:15:47She just walked past two of the most expensive counters in the room.
00:15:51Told you.
00:15:52Total country mounts.
00:15:53She wouldn't know what to do with luxury.
00:15:55It's bitter.
00:15:56What?
00:15:56These aren't good enough for you?
00:15:58This one's last season marked up twice.
00:16:01And this is a reissue.
00:16:03Same stones.
00:16:04Cheaper setting.
00:16:14Public scandal?
00:16:16What?
00:16:18Mine.
00:16:19That's not-
00:16:19There's only one.
00:16:20I saw it first.
00:16:22It's kind of cute.
00:16:27Perfect for Saturday.
00:16:28Everyone at prom is going to see it.
00:16:29It's a problem.
00:16:31What's wrong with it?
00:16:31It's just a pin.
00:16:34You're not even in my league.
00:16:36Also, you can't afford it.
00:16:38That's messed up.
00:16:40Who invited you?
00:16:42It's fine.
00:16:49It's not fine.
00:16:50You were the one who got the badge first.
00:16:52It is for now.
00:16:53This never should have been at a school event in the first place.
00:16:57Let her wear it to prom.
00:16:59She'll pay for this.
00:17:20It's not fine.
00:17:26It's Mia.
00:17:28Ethan brought her?
00:17:40Hey.
00:17:51Admissions reps are here. I'll get you a minute
00:17:57Mia, wow. You actually showed up. It's prom. It's my prom. You look fine
00:18:07Too bad you can't afford it
00:18:24You done? This is between girls. No one cares
00:18:34Enjoy the attention while it lasts Mia. I'll be in the lounge when the real game starts
00:18:47Why are you here? You're on my radar
00:18:56As much as I'd love to stay with you tonight, I can't
00:19:00I don't care
00:19:09Mia
00:19:20Come with me
00:19:26Sorry, Jace. Prom is not my biggest priority tonight. I've got something more important to do
00:19:43The admissions reps are right there. I'm gonna go say hi first. Stay here a second. Don't be nervous
00:19:49You belong here
00:19:55You really think you're getting a moment with them?
00:20:00Yeah
00:20:03You're not
00:20:06Why?
00:20:07There's only one slot tonight for a real conversation with the IB reps
00:20:12My parents run alumni. Donors. Lists. Names. Ethan can talk all he wants
00:20:21It won't matter
00:20:22It won't matter
00:20:25It will
00:20:27Okay
00:20:28Bet
00:20:31Bet
00:20:31Bet
00:20:37Everyone
00:20:39Our scholarship girl Mia just made a bet with me
00:20:44She thinks she's the one he'll remember tonight
00:20:47She thinks she's the one he'll remember tonight
00:20:47What's the stake?
00:20:48Five thousand
00:20:49Five thousand dollars? Please
00:20:54Do you even have five thousand to your name?
00:20:58I do
00:21:05This is what's more important than prom?
00:21:07Yeah
00:21:18What's going on?
00:21:21Nothing
00:21:22Just a little reality check
00:21:25I'm fine
00:21:31They're about to come out
00:21:32Perfect timing
00:21:36Watch
00:21:37You'll see
00:21:41You didn't get it from me last time
00:21:43You're not getting anything else from me
00:21:46You're not getting anything else from me
00:21:50Hi, welcome
00:21:51I'm Blair Hart
00:21:52My parents are on the alumni board
00:21:55They're donors
00:21:55We support
00:21:59What is this?
00:22:08Wait
00:22:08What's wrong with the badge?
00:22:11Are you out of your mind?
00:22:12How did you think you could bring something like this here?
00:22:19Is something wrong?
00:22:20That badge
00:22:21Where did you get it?
00:22:29It's just a cute thing
00:22:31That crest is not cute
00:22:33That's an old alumni influence pin
00:22:35I don't know what you mean
00:22:39Yeah
00:22:40That one
00:22:42It's been tied to access games
00:22:44Back channel favors
00:22:45Donation pressure
00:22:45I don't believe you don't know this
00:22:47Since your parents are on the alumni board
00:22:53Wait, what?
00:22:55Is that like...
00:22:57Bribery?
00:23:00Blair, what is that?
00:23:01Why would you wear that?
00:23:03I didn't know
00:23:14You're all obsessed with me!
00:23:16She tried to flex Officer Reed
00:23:18and got cooked
00:23:19You're all obsessed with me!
00:23:22Mia Parker?
00:23:24Mia Parker?
00:23:24Yeah
00:23:29She's with me
00:23:30One minute
00:23:37No!
00:23:39No!
00:23:44Did you bring anything with you?
00:23:47This
00:23:51You came prepared
00:23:52These programs can cost some money
00:23:54But on paper
00:23:55You're still missing structured leadership
00:23:57So I'm not sure if that's within your budget
00:24:00Give me the standard
00:24:01I'll hit it
00:24:04I'm sending you three requirements tonight

00:50:43i had nothing to hide
00:50:49mea parker
00:50:51the complaint says the pack you opened was a repack
00:50:53an assembled pack built to guarantee that this kind of dishonesty is damaging to the school's reputation
00:51:02the tamper bag only proves the card wasn't switched after the pull
00:51:05that doesn't prove the pack wasn't assembled before the pull
00:51:08that's why i ran the card
00:51:14the card came back clean
00:51:15no prior listings
00:51:17no auction record
00:51:18no graded registry match
00:51:19no public sale history for this card number
00:51:21meaning
00:51:21if someone bought this card first
00:51:23then planted inside a repack
00:51:24there should be a market trail
00:51:26there isn't one

00:57:18Tonight was fun, but I'm focused on my goals.
00:57:23I helped you.
00:57:24Why can't you show a little gratitude?
00:57:29I thanked you.
00:57:32I want you to choose.
00:57:34Me or Jace.
00:57:36That's control.
00:57:38It's commitment.
00:57:39It's pressure.
00:57:44I just need to know I matter.
00:57:47You matter.
00:57:49You just don't get to own the steering wheel.
00:57:59I couldn't keep getting pulled into other people's games.
00:58:03Flipping things one by one wasn't enough anymore.
00:58:05I needed a brand people could trust.
00:58:15You good?
00:58:16If you're here to confess again, don't.
00:58:18I'm not here for that.
00:58:19I'm a mess right now.
00:58:20I'm trying to build a life.
00:58:21I don't have space for drama.
00:58:26Okay.
00:58:28I can like you and still not push you.
00:58:31Tell me what you need.
00:58:32I need quiet.
00:58:34Safety.
00:58:35I need to win clean.
00:58:37Blair watches everything I do.
00:58:40Then I'm here.
00:58:41I know people at school.
00:58:42I'll get them to help you.
00:58:44I'll text you if I need a ride.
00:58:46I'll answer.
00:58:47Thank you, Jace.
00:58:48You're not like anyone else.
00:58:53Then I started a brand called Verified.
00:58:57Somewhere they knew every item had been verified.
00:59:02You look like a boss.
00:59:03I need a system.
00:59:05What do you want me doing?
00:59:06Logs.
00:59:06Numbers.
00:59:07Timestamps.
00:59:08Got it.
00:59:10This is pay.
00:59:12For real?
00:59:13For real.
00:59:14For real.
00:59:16Wow.
00:59:17A little company.
00:59:18We're working.
00:59:19You can't build anything in this town without my parents.
00:59:24Watch me.
00:59:25Fine.
00:59:26Build your tiny dreams.
00:59:27It'll break.
00:59:30We start tonight.
00:59:40If people remember one thing, it's the mark.
00:59:44These came in.
00:59:45QR codes are ready.
00:59:46I made the backdrop.
00:59:47Where do you want these?
00:59:48Trunk.
00:59:48Then entrance.
00:59:52Line starts here.
00:59:53QR there.
00:59:55Keep it tight.
00:59:57We open in 30!
01:00:01You're the verified girl.
01:00:05It's a team.
01:00:14It was only day one.
01:00:16But verified had made a real start.
01:00:20I didn't expect this many.
01:00:23People want something they can trust.
01:00:28You...
01:00:29You did that already.
01:00:31Today matters.
01:00:33I'm Bright Wave.
01:00:34This is insane.
01:00:35Your logo is everywhere.
01:00:37Back of the line.
01:00:42Would you be open to talking later about a bigger partnership?
01:00:45See you at the cafe later.
01:00:53How does it work?
01:00:54You follow the steps.
01:00:55We stamp the bag.
01:00:56You get a receipt.
01:00:59That day, every item verified sold was logged, stamped, and part of the profit went straight
01:01:04to the student support fund.
01:01:07Why donate profit?
01:01:09Because people sleep outside.
01:01:11I have a roof now.
01:01:12They should too.
01:01:15It was only day one.
01:01:17But verified had made a real start.
01:01:21I didn't expect this many.
01:01:24People want something they can trust.
01:01:29You...
01:01:30You did that already.
01:01:32Today matters.
01:01:34I'm Bright Wave.
01:01:35This is insane.
01:01:36Your logo is everywhere.
01:01:38Back of the line.
01:01:43Would you be open to talking later about a bigger partnership?
01:01:46See you at the cafe later.
01:01:53How does it work?
01:01:55You follow the steps.

01:01:57You get a receipt.
01:01:59That day, every item verified sold was logged, stamped, and part of the profit was made.
01:02:05And the profit went straight to the student support fund.
01:02:08Why donate profit?
01:02:10Because people sleep outside.
01:02:11I have a roof now.
01:02:13They should too.
01:02:21We do a limited run with your stamp.
01:02:24My customers trust you now.
01:02:2750-50.
01:02:2960-40.
01:02:30Who gets 60?
01:02:33We do.
01:02:34We bring the line.
01:02:36We bring the trust.
01:02:3710% still goes to the shelter.
01:02:3910% still goes to the shelter.
01:03:13You're 18 and running city pop-ups.
01:03:17Why donate profits?
01:03:18Because people sleep outside in my city.
01:03:21I can help.
01:03:30This is a phase.
01:03:35We need to shut her down.
01:03:44You okay with cameras?
01:03:47I'm okay with impact.
01:03:50Then keep going.
01:03:53Good luck.
01:04:03I can't host your pop-up.
01:04:05Who called you?
01:04:08I can't say.
01:04:17That's them.
01:04:19They're coordinating.
01:04:20Laylee couldn't stop me.
01:04:22There had to be another place.
01:04:25I need a space for Saturday.
01:04:27Use our lot.
01:04:35We don't have much.
01:04:39We don't need much.
01:04:55Thank you for showing up.
01:05:04National Youth Impact.
01:05:07That's huge.
01:05:08That's national.
01:05:09We earn it.
01:05:11They want a live demo with crowd control.
01:05:14We do the same thing.
01:05:16I'll get you there.
01:05:17I'll handle the room.
01:05:18I know.
01:05:27Keep the QR ready.
01:05:29Paperwork in hand.
01:05:30Next.
01:05:53You're on in two minutes.
01:05:54Tess, hold the line at the banner.
01:06:02That's her.
01:06:03The verified girl.
01:06:05She donates to the shelter, right?
01:06:12Next up, Mia Parker.
01:06:15Founder of verified.
01:06:29We keep it simple.
01:06:31People want trust.
01:06:32People need help.
01:06:34So we do both.
01:06:37This is the promise.
01:06:4010% of profit goes to youth housing.
01:06:44Not because it looks good.
01:06:46Because it's right.
01:07:05Mia Parker?
01:07:07Yes.
01:07:13The mayor wants a photo next week.
01:07:22A city hero.
01:07:24The mayor's favorite.
01:07:27You made verified untouchable.
01:07:31We made it untouchable.
01:07:33I just did the talking.
01:07:41I wasn't guarding the booth.
01:07:43I was watching you.
01:07:46The algorithm didn't require that much supervision.
01:07:49Forget the summit.
01:07:53You looked at me 13 times during your speech.
01:07:58You were counting?
01:08:00I'm tired of being just your friend.
01:08:06Chase.
01:08:07Give me the final result.
01:08:10The result is you.
01:08:11It's always been you.
01:08:36Mia.
01:08:37If we do this, there's no going back to just being partners.
01:08:40I won't let you go.
01:08:43Since when did you become so talkative?
01:08:50I like the suit, Chase.
01:08:53But I like the man underneath it more.
01:08:58You're the only one who gets to see him.
01:09:23Be my girlfriend, Mia.
01:09:26Boyfriend, Chase?
01:09:45The same is now.
01:09:57We should respond.
01:09:59We keep moving.
01:10:01Donation receipts are ready.
01:10:03Post them.
01:10:04You want me at the next site early?
01:10:06My girlfriend.
01:10:07You two?
01:10:09Yes.
01:10:12Yes, I'm her boyfriend now.
01:10:18Your pop-ups create liability in our community.
01:10:21We donate to youth housing.
01:10:23We pay staff.
01:10:24We run public totals.
01:10:25What do you mean liability?
01:10:26You use attention to raise money.
01:10:28You know very well I made that donation to do some good.
01:10:31The only reason you want me to stop is because you think it will make your daughter feel better.
01:10:34I want you under us.
01:10:36Sign with my family.
01:10:38You'll survive.
01:10:41No.
01:10:43You'll lose venues.
01:10:46And I'll build my own.
01:10:54You okay?
01:10:56I'm angry.
01:10:58Use it.
01:11:08You actually came.
01:11:10I was invited.
01:11:13That's cute.
01:11:14Miss Parker, you're on the program.
01:11:17You're on the front table.
01:11:20Please welcome our chairman, Mr. Hart.
01:11:25Tonight is about leadership, tradition, standards.
01:11:29We're also joined by a young internet sensation.
01:11:34Mia Parker.
01:11:35Stand up for us.
01:11:37Mia runs verified, correct?
01:11:39And you claim you donate to youth homelessness?
01:11:40I do.
01:11:41How much?
01:11:4210% of profit.
01:11:43Every time.
01:11:45Interesting.
01:11:46But according to my investigation, this was nothing more than a publicity stunt.
01:11:51You never actually made the donation.
01:11:54That's not true.
01:11:55I have a witness.
01:12:00Mr. Hart, one minute.
01:12:06Mr. Hart, one minute.
01:12:09I sponsored this foundation for years.
01:12:11I believed Mia's story.
01:12:13We can talk privately.
01:12:14Mia's work is the cleanest thing I've seen in this space.
01:12:17I'm ending Bright Wave's partnership with the Hart Foundation.
01:12:20Effective tonight.
01:12:24Congrats.
01:12:25You won.
01:12:27So where do you want to go next?
01:12:29Home.
01:12:38Wash up.
01:12:39Dinner's ready.
01:12:43Success is peace.
01:12:45Happiness is home.
