00:42Dad!
00:45Would you like me to explain how to win every game, James? Without fail.
00:50You don't have to be a genius in a game of chess to dominate.
00:53You offer your opponent the chance to make mistakes, and then you exploit them.
00:58Your opponent should really believe that they have only one possible course of action.
01:07And it's the same in life.
01:10The dominant one, they decide the tactics, act.
01:15Those who fall for the tricks, get knocked down.
01:36I'm on my last round, baby.
01:50Pride is the first of the deadly sins, but it is in fact one of the most useful emotions there
01:55is.
01:56Pride indicates status, and if there's one thing people react to, it's that.
02:00Every person on Earth has their place, like pieces on a chessboard.
02:05Pawns can fight their whole lives to become king, but only those born as kings know what the position really
02:09means.
02:10You have power, the whole goal of the game, but you are more vulnerable than any other piece on the
02:15board.
02:16If you want to maintain your position, you have to move your pieces forward.
02:19A Beaufort won't be bossed around.
02:22Not by the headmaster, and certainly not by someone like Ruby Bell.
02:28Any new music for me, Percy?
02:30What could be better than the classics?
02:47We all know that the Welcome Party didn't go exactly as we'd all hoped that it would.
02:51An understatement, which was totally out of our control.
02:54That's not the concern.
02:56The main thing is that we make an absolutely perfect donor gala happen, without interference.
03:00Speaking of which, shouldn't James be here by now?
03:05The further James Beaufort stays from this meeting, the better.
03:09Shall we make a start, then?
03:10Very good. Round the outside, round the outside.
03:13Pass and run. Keep moving. That's great.
03:15Keep it up.
03:17Sweet.
03:18Good. Good. Now on the right side.
03:21Beaufort?
03:22What's happening here?
03:23I'm obviously doing it completely wrong without you, coach.
03:26Your little prank at the party has resulted in you getting kicked out.
03:29Forgotten already?
03:30What'll Lexington do about it? Expel me.
03:33Not you, but me, mind.
03:35If you don't show up for your committee, it'll be my head that's chopped off.
03:41You messed up, Beaufort.
03:44This term, I'm keeping you out of the team.
03:50You're not serious, are you?
03:53I'm sorry, James. The choice isn't mine.
03:59My family financed this goal. From the kit to the rent.
04:02Lexington can't afford that decision. I don't answer, Lexington.
04:06James, the order for you to be suspended from the team came from your father.
04:13If you want to control the world around you, you have to understand one thing.
04:17If you allow it, control can be taken from you as quickly as you grab.
04:21Okay, let's keep going. Back to your positions.
04:24And how you deal with such a situation defines whether you belong on the winning or the losing side.
04:34It was a full-on prank. What did you think would be the reaction?
04:37But he's never cared what I do at school. As long as I act the way he wants outside of
04:40it.
04:40It was you who had the idea for a flash mob of strippers.
04:42She made me do it. Who does she think she is?
04:45Talk to Dad. You might be able to resolve it. You're his golden boy.
04:48I'm going to talk to him.
04:48But make sure Ruby Bell wishes she'd never come to this school in the first place.
04:52Don't provoke her. She slipped quite so far and that's good luck.
04:55Ha! She thinks she's won.
04:56If she even thinks I'm giving up the attack, she's playing with the wrong guy.
04:59It's a game and she won't win.
05:02Dad would be proud of you.
05:04Make the opponent think they only have one course of action possible. Right?
05:08Watch your step. You don't know this guy at all.
05:11I know enough to know she'd sell internal body parts to get into Oxford.
05:14And that pathetic committee is her way to get there.
05:17Last time we talked a lot about elegance and simplicity.
05:20For me, we have so much more potential with the theme.
05:22Black and white. Light and shadow. Dishonesty and truth. Good and bad.
05:27I worked until 3am last night on my laptop and...
05:30This is my design for the poster.
05:37Thank you for all your commitment.
05:42Seriously?
06:12Your best idea for the gala is black and white.
06:13I'm not a fan of your tone, however.
06:14My tone is completely normal, but you've been complaining since you came in the room, so...
06:17Just be happy someone has the guts to tell you what they really think of it.
06:19Oh.
06:21And you know we are so thankful.
06:26Okay, who else has input about Ciaran's poster?
06:32The school hall would be a perfect setting for a Victorian party.
06:37Dress code of the era, classy and decadent. We'd make sure to get it right. Period table settings, napkins with
06:43lace or candlelit. And a friend of mine knows an orchestra that plays Victorian tunes.
06:46The discussion is not about a theme. We're happy with the theme.
06:48You mean this thing?
06:49Imagine. Victorian gowns. And suits. Candlelight.
06:53We don't have time to start planning a new party. We've ordered decoration samples, agreed on a menu already, and
06:58the posters get printed soon.
06:59Sorry, my mistake. I honestly thought we were here for the best party we could organize.
07:02Have you thought of a post-rider at the same time?
07:06Sorry.
07:11May I?
07:49What is that then?
07:51A woman in Victorian costume to establish the dress code. We could put a cool collage around it, maybe with
07:55a little less Hitchcock energy than this option.
08:04A little awestruck, Ruby Bell.
08:15Okay.
08:17Who wants to vote for the Victorian idea?
08:30So pretty clear then.
08:44What about the costume rental place in Harrington?
08:46In those dresses, I look like Elsa from Frozen after a flood catastrophe.
08:50We can't put some polyester thing on our poster.
08:57What?
08:58What?
08:58Beaufort is one of the oldest luxury brands in England, and their collection is well over a hundred years old.
09:06I was fast.
09:07No, wait, I was.
09:08I was so much faster than you.
09:08Oh, please, Lynn.
09:15Get the cap in hand.
09:17And you speak to Beaufort.
09:35Hi.
09:38Respect for the way you dealt with that. Great leadership competence.
09:42Do you have anything Victorian in your family collection?
09:45Yes, I think so. Lots of beautiful things. Valuable.
09:48We'd like to take some pictures of them for the poster.
09:51Sounds like a really good idea.
09:53Can you ask your parents if, you know, we can have access to them?
09:58Hmm. I'm sorry, I can't do that.
10:01You mean you won't do it?
10:02Can't or won't do it, Ruby Bell? My answer will still be bad.
10:05But no doubt, a competent leader like you are, we'll find a solution.
10:20The second one is good, with a smile.
10:22You're smiling in all of them.
10:24Yeah, but there's smiling.
10:25And there's smiling.
10:27You would know what I mean if at some time in your life you'd ever flirted.
10:31There's lots of good ones, thank you.
10:33So come on, what's the story with the Victorian dress?
10:36Your school's so fancy.
10:38Well, we urgently need a Victorian dress photo for our poster.
10:41By tomorrow.
10:43I thought that you'd have an idea of where we...
10:45Where Victorian dresses are being sold.
10:46In Gormzy.
10:47Well, you're a fashion genius, I thought...
10:49I repeat, a Victorian dress shop in Gormzy.
10:53You're right.
10:55This one will work.
11:03Can you imagine if I knew someone whose second super talent this is?
11:08Yeah.
11:10I'll make it.
11:11Two days, that shouldn't be impossible.
11:13Really?
11:15No.
11:16No, definitely not.
11:18Not gonna happen, never ever.
11:19Especially not by the day after tomorrow.
11:22Here.
11:25To start from scratch would be crazy.
11:29I mean, if we had a dress we could use as a base to build on.
11:34Um...
11:35Tree up the skirt.
11:36Sew on a bodice.
11:38The skirt can have a train, maybe.
11:40A roll of two would be handy.
11:42I could sew in the waist.
11:43The bodice.
11:44Oh, yeah.
11:45I have an amazing silver thread somewhere.
11:47That would look great with the...
11:52You knew I couldn't say no if you asked for help with this.
11:54What, me?
11:55What are you saying?
12:01I'll get the sewing machine, you make the coffee,
12:03and this will be an all-nighter.
12:23What's happened?
12:24My son's so fresh in the morning.
12:26I thought I'd work out before school,
12:28like you always said I should.
12:29Oh, yeah?
12:30Race you to the bench.
12:48I'll let you be me.
12:50Yeah.
12:51Woo!
12:52I'll let you in.
12:53Yeah, a bluffing's all well and good,
12:54but as long as the next time it doesn't happen, yeah?
13:01Woo!
13:04Huh?
13:16I must return to the La Crosse field, Dad.
13:21We all have our hands full at the moment,
13:23getting ready for the investor reception tonight,
13:25as well as preparing to present the new pieces.
13:28And as the fresh new face,
13:29you should too.
13:31The young Beaufort.
13:32Huh?
13:33We're close to our third title winning season in a row.
13:36This never happened at Maxton Hall, you know?
13:38I can't say I'm surprised about it.
13:40It's a girls game, ma'am.
13:48Will you speak to Lexington, or should I?
13:54Please, Dad.
13:56It's my last year.
14:00All of life's obstacles that are sent to test us
14:04should be seen as training
14:05for the truly difficult moments.
14:07The important moments that will shape our future.
14:10And the first of these moments is upon us.
14:13You will concentrate fully
14:14and deliver a perfect performance at the reception.
14:17The image of the company needs that to happen.
14:19The image of our entire family.
14:24Anyway, I would say
14:26we've just found a new athletic activity
14:28for you to practice.
14:32The next time, I want you to win the race.
14:48It looks like the rain
14:50is taking a day off.
14:52I want you to win the race.
14:56Life is a magical thing
14:57that I'm trying to show you
14:59I know you were falling
15:00You can imagine the wildest things
15:02I could show you
15:02everything you're dreaming of
15:04Take my hand and follow my lips
15:07You love what we do
15:09I'll make you believe
15:12I'll make you believe in magic
15:14Won't you believe in me
15:15I'll make you believe in magic
15:42No!
15:48I'm also looking forward to the recording.
16:03Gathered guests.
16:05Dear friends.
16:08This here belonged to my great-great-grandfather,
16:12who was the Beaufort who founded this round 125 years ago.
16:16And I think he would be proud if he could see how far we have come today.
16:20From that humble tailoring outfit arose a worldwide operation
16:24with tradition at the core of it,
16:26which the luxury fashion landscape has been guided and defined by for decades.
16:30Not only through the iconic clothing we produce,
16:33but also through the market-leading sustainability projects
16:36which we are especially proud of.
16:39But Beaufort remains a family venture to this day.
16:44From then until now, therefore it fills me with great pride
16:48to introduce you to my wonderful son, James,
16:51who will enlighten you all as to why we are here this evening.
16:56James.
17:04We're all here today to witness a great moment.
17:07Beaufort continues to expand its empire.
17:10We dress kings, presidents, and not forgetting countless businessmen the whole world over.
17:15And now, it is time for the next generation in this family's inner circle.
17:20Especially at a time when the world is changing so quickly.
17:24A world in which the leaders are becoming younger,
17:27putting an earlier pressure on their future responsibilities.
17:32Here, stands before you the future of Beaufort.
17:35So, are you impressed?
17:40A toast.
17:41A toast.
17:43To a new generation of Beaufort.
17:47Modern, noble, dynamic.
17:50You have guided things to work.
17:51При hug a bend.
18:04Charcy.
18:05Chosie.
18:06Chosie.
18:09Chosie.
18:29Oh my god I knew you could do it I totally love it when you're done with your poster stuff
18:35I'll
18:35definitely put it on the block I reckon it'll be a hit are you all right to iron it I
18:42think I'm ready
18:42about now to pass the hell for eight to ten hours yeah of course have a rest good night thank
18:48you em
19:14you
19:15you
20:06You really are an arrogant arsehole.
20:14No, no, no, no, no, no.
20:40Amber, I'm so sorry.
20:44I didn't mean it.
20:56Do you think you're still able to use it?
21:26Do it if you can't even know.
21:28I don't know.
21:32I don't know.
21:38I don't know.
21:41I don't know.
21:51Hello, everybody.
21:52My name is Philippa Winfield, but please feel free to call me Pippa.
21:56Whatever you want, baby.
21:57When I was preparing to apply for Oxford, I found it really helpful to discuss concrete philosophies
22:02with other students.
22:04And that's exactly what we're going to do in this course.
22:10Can you pass these sheets around, please?
22:12Thanks.
22:14Well, maybe we should do this one-to-one.
22:16Yeah, you wish to, don't you?
22:19Okay.
22:20So you can start by reading the first question aloud for us, yeah?
22:23Okay.
22:26If you can provide a rationale for your actions, does that validate your actions as rational?
22:35Feelings can also motivate your actions.
22:37How many decisions do we make every day that are emotional ones?
22:41It's actually strange to separate emotionality and rationality with such distinction.
22:46That assumes that head and heart are exclusive of each other.
22:48If I act according to principles that I think are rational, but I suffer for it, does that
22:52make my actions rational?
22:56Mm-hmm.
22:56We can see clearly that there exists no constant principle among us.
22:59I would never consider any action to be rational, as you would say, if someone suffers by it.
23:05There are certain principles that apply universally.
23:07Those are axioms.
23:10If you have two job offers, for example, in one you'd get better pay, but you'd be happier in the
23:14less well-paid one.
23:15The rational decision would be to accept the better-paid job, obviously.
23:18If money is your motivation, then yes, you're right, which isn't surprising in your case.
23:21Okay, first of all, you don't know me.
23:23Secondly, everyone knows no one's interested in you at all if you don't have wealth.
23:26If on the day that you were born you think that nobody's interested if you don't have money,
23:28of course you'll reason that nothing or nobody else matters.
23:31Pretty sad, lonely, and pathetic, I would say.
23:33Uh, passionate discussion is good, but please no personal attacks.
23:35This is very important.
23:37Yes, then in your ivory tower of moral superiority.
23:38At least I haven't gone through my life thinking that I'm superior to everyone,
23:41treating them like rubbish because they don't have my bank account.
23:43That works for you, does it?
23:44You try to control everyone without having money.
23:45How's that been going for you?
23:47You're so superior.
23:48Students, please.
23:48Do you want to spend the rest of your life representing a level of wealth and a reputation
23:51to which you have contributed absolutely nothing?
23:53With so much money you don't need to have your own ideas or ideals.
23:56Your name, inheritance, the dumb stunts, all just shows how empty your being is.
23:59And that's why no one will ever be interested in you, only in your money.
24:02That's all you'll ever get.
24:40Maybe I'm wrong.
24:44Maybe I'm wrong.
24:57We're gonna have to think about what we do if Ruby talks.
25:03I don't think she's gonna do that.
25:10What we meant to do, we've both known for a while now.
25:16No.
25:19If anything came out of this that was good for us, it was to know that we can't go on
25:23like
25:23this.
25:24That's enough.
25:24We went too far, Lid.
25:29Sooner or later it was going to happen.
25:30We both have to know that.
25:33We'll keep our heads down until everyone's forgotten this.
25:36And I'm always done with school, yeah.
25:38And then...
25:39And then?
25:41Are you thinking that your parents would just welcome me into their lives?
25:44Their daughter's teacher?
25:50I don't want you to throw away your future or any opportunities that Beaufort would mean
25:53for you.
25:56Opportunities haven't been there for a while with my dad.
25:59I told everything to a journalist about everything that goes on.
26:03You had the idea for young Beaufort.
26:05You developed the concept for the whole launch.
26:09Mortimer may be a shitty father, but he's a very clever individual.
26:14Your talent wouldn't be wasted by such a great businessman.
26:17I'll get you a chance this year.
26:18I know it.
26:27But we won't have that.
26:40If you insist...
26:49You won't be let down.
26:50Gonna let yourself be let down.
26:54Gonna let yourself be let down.
26:58Hey!
26:59Hey!
27:01Go!
27:05Go!
27:06Yeah!
27:06Yeah!
27:08Go!
27:11Let's go!
27:13Oh, he's not back.
27:26In three words, how would you describe me, huh?
27:29Right here?
27:33What about super-sexy stallion?
27:38Very accurate.
27:43But false modesty usually gets you further in life, so I've been hearing.
27:50You okay?
27:52My current boyfriend is being problematic, so I'm looking for alternatives.
27:58But I'm aware that's nothing compared to your personal drama.
28:04Or are we still pretending to ignore whatever happened in the Oxford debate the other day between you and Ruby?
28:09Nothing happened.
28:10Of course there's a load of shit, and I had other things to do.
28:13Oh, yeah.
28:15What?
28:19She has managed to hit you where it hurts, huh?
28:22Okay, okay, I'll leave you alone.
28:28I've never seen her behave so weirdly either.
28:30You're saying that's a coincidence?
28:33What do you think?
28:34What do you think?
29:01Ruby?
29:04What are you thinking about?
29:05Is everything okay, sweetheart?
29:08Ruby?
29:10Hmm?
29:11It's nothing. It's fine.
29:16It's all right, yeah?
29:18But you're not all right.
29:19And my father's contract commands,
29:21you're not all right, I'm not. We're the same.
29:26Have you ever made someone leave
29:28because of something you did?
29:31Yeah.
29:33You know, Ruby, I...
29:35I'm almost 50, yeah?
29:38I've made an awful lot
29:39of mistakes and hurt others.
29:41It's unavoidable, but you know,
29:43thank goodness it doesn't make you a bad person.
29:46No?
29:48No.
29:49What does matter, though,
29:50is that you learn.
29:53And are responsible for them.
29:58Why must it be so hard to know the right thing to do?
30:03Well...
30:05That's why it's called the right thing,
30:06not the easy thing.
30:15But what does it feel?
30:17Why does it feel so hard?
30:22Not the right thing, right?
30:22I told you,
30:22I had a girlfriend to move on.
30:23It's from the right thing.
30:24I told you,
30:24I told you,
30:25And you told me,
30:26You told me,
30:31How do you have to do that?
30:32And who knows?
