00:09:33this is vegas after all
00:09:35whoa
00:09:36let me catch my breath
00:09:37if we're really doing this
00:09:38i have three ground rules
00:09:40i'm listening
00:09:41first
00:09:42your money stays yours
00:09:43i don't want anyone thinking i'm a gold digger
00:09:45i can do that
00:09:46second
00:09:46boundaries
00:09:47we respect each other's space
00:09:49mutual respect
00:09:50minimal meddling
00:09:50and third
00:09:51my son never had a mom
00:09:53when we're married
00:09:54treat him like your own
00:09:58deal
00:09:59i agree to all of it
00:10:00now before you find any more rules
00:10:02let's go
00:10:07this is moving so fast
00:10:09speed is the new romance
00:10:10all the kids are doing it
00:10:12you gotta keep up with the times
00:10:15maybe i'm just old-fashioned that way
00:10:17but hey at least it's legally binding
00:10:18a good sense of humor too huh
00:10:20you're the real deal
00:10:21i'm full of surprises
00:10:23oh
00:10:24that reminds me
00:10:30for me
00:10:32just
00:10:33a little something
00:10:34i hope you don't have something like it already
00:10:36definitely not
00:10:37it's beautiful
00:10:47so
00:10:48how do i look
00:10:49i think you make it look even more beautiful than before

00:11:08impossible
00:11:09your identity is buried deep
00:11:11only a handful of people in the world know the truth
00:11:13then why would someone like her want someone like me
00:11:15a maintenance worker with nothing to offer
00:11:17you did save her life
00:11:18or maybe she just sees something in you the rest of the world doesn't

00:37:29I tried to warn you
00:37:30gentlemen
00:37:31this whole situation
00:37:32started with
00:37:33Brandon's behavior
00:37:38the ocean heart
00:37:41how is that possible
00:37:51what do you mean by ocean heart
00:37:54you mean this
00:38:00yes that's it
00:38:01that's the ocean heart
00:38:03desert crown spent 250 million dollars
00:38:06to acquire it
00:38:07it was supposed to be handed over
00:38:09to Don Moretti
00:38:11Mr. Reed
00:38:12are you sure
00:38:12there must be some mistake
00:38:14no mistake
00:38:15I was there
00:38:16when the auction happened
00:38:17I saw it with my own eyes
00:38:19how did this piece
00:38:20come to be in your possession
00:38:23Michael
00:38:23gave it to me
00:38:26bullshit
00:38:27why would a tribute
00:38:28meant for Don Moretti
00:38:29end up with some loser
00:38:30like you
00:38:30how did you get it
00:38:32just a little something
00:38:33someone gave me
00:38:34no big deal
00:38:35no big deal
00:38:36that necklace
00:38:37is worth over
00:38:39two billion
00:38:39dollars
00:38:40and you're calling it
00:38:41no big deal
00:38:42you're saying someone
00:38:43gave it to you
00:38:44who
00:38:45and don't tell me
00:38:46it was Sophia Marlin
00:38:47president of Desert Crown Holdings
00:38:50actually you're right
00:38:51it was indeed Sophia
00:38:52who gave it to me
00:39:00dad this guy's a temp worker
00:39:02bottom of the food chain
00:39:04how would someone like him know any president
00:39:07that necklace
00:39:08he's stolen
00:39:10Anthony I've known his family for five years
00:39:13trust me
00:39:15they're nobodies
00:39:17there's no way that's legitimate
00:39:19interesting theory
00:39:20and it would take real balls
00:39:22to steal from Desert Crown Holdings
00:39:24some people are poor but honest
00:39:27but stealing something that valuable
00:39:29that's just pathetic
00:39:31that's enough
00:39:32my father is not a thief
00:39:36thank god
00:39:37I dumped you when I did
00:39:38otherwise I'd be going down with this train wreck
00:39:41stealing from Desert Crown
00:39:43you two are finished
00:39:46I trust Michael completely
00:39:48and I'm certain there's a perfectly reasonable explanation
00:39:52perhaps you should clarify things
00:39:55clarify what's there to clarify
00:39:57it was a gift
00:39:58a gift
00:40:03right
00:40:04what's next
00:40:06you're going to tell us
00:40:07you're Don Moretti himself
00:40:09stranger things have happened
00:40:16unbelievable
00:40:18first he steals the ocean heart
00:40:20now he's claiming to be Don Moretti
00:40:22old man
00:40:23you've completely lost it
00:40:24a senior executive of Desert Crown
00:40:27you just signed your own death warrant
00:40:29the Don's been in the shadows for years
00:40:31but that doesn't give every two-bit nobody
00:40:34the right to use his name
00:40:35I was willing to overlook your disrespect earlier
00:40:38but the ocean heart
00:40:39you better have a damn good explanation
00:40:41or this ends badly for you
00:40:43dad forget talking
00:40:44let's handle this now
00:40:45guards
00:40:54President Hart
00:40:55perfect timing
00:40:56stand your ground
00:40:59Evelyn
00:40:59what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:41:01you're protecting a thief?
00:41:03I'm protecting an innocent man from a witch hunt
00:41:06possession of stolen property
00:41:07I have every right
00:41:08stolen?
00:41:09you're making accusations without a shred of proof
00:41:11the proof is hanging around your neck
00:41:13so that's how it is
00:41:15you're choosing to go to war with Desert Crown Holdings
00:41:19you're really going to war with Desert Crown for this piece of trash?
00:41:23Evelyn
00:41:23are you stupid or just completely brainless?
00:41:26now Brandon
00:41:26that's not fair
00:41:27if she were really that stupid
00:41:29could she have built Meridian Ventures?
00:41:32my guess
00:41:32she's just desperate for a man
00:41:34you'd really go up against Desert Crown for me?
00:41:38we're husband and wife
00:41:39we rise together
00:41:41we fall together
00:41:43besides I know you didn't do what they're accusing you of
00:41:46can we talk this through for a second?
00:41:48stay out of this
00:41:50we've still got our own score to settle
00:41:54you're accusing Mr. Smith of stealing the ocean heart
00:41:57where's your proof?
00:41:59proof?
00:41:59it's obvious
00:41:59are you suggesting I'm framing him?
00:42:02I'm saying there's one person who knows the truth
00:42:04why don't we ask her
00:42:07you mean
00:42:08President Marlowe?
00:42:10exactly
00:42:11let her settle this
00:42:12if Sophia shows up
00:42:14and I've recovered the ocean heart
00:42:17she'll owe me
00:42:19maybe even take me to meet the Don himself
00:42:29what could Anthony Reed possibly want from me?
00:42:36President Marlowe
00:42:37Mr. Reed
00:42:38is confronting the Don
00:42:40he's threatening to kill him
00:42:42what?
00:42:44let's go
00:42:45now
00:42:51just wait until President Marlowe walks through that door
00:42:56none of you are walking out of here
00:42:58especially you, Evelyn
00:43:01a small time operation
00:43:03like Meridian Ventures challenging Desert Crown
00:43:06you'll regret this for the rest of your life
00:43:10I won't regret a thing
00:43:12Anthony, you're the one who's going to have regrets
00:43:14better start thinking about how you'll explain yourself
00:43:17when Sophia gets here
00:43:21still running your mouth?
00:43:23you really don't know when to quit, do you?
00:43:26dad, why are we waiting?
00:43:27let me break this old bastard's knees
00:43:28and make him crawl out of here like a dog
00:43:30send a message about what happens
00:43:31when you mess with Desert Crown
00:43:33patience, son
00:43:34an audience with the president is an opportunity
00:43:38as for his fate
00:43:39Michael
00:43:41your stupidity isn't just destroying you
00:43:43you're taking down your little mistress
00:43:45and her entire company
00:43:47you're dragging everyone into the grave with you
00:43:54Anthony
00:43:58you're the one who's about to be ruined
00:44:07President Marlott
00:44:08forgive my boldness in calling you here
00:44:09but I have something extremely important to report
00:44:12do tell
00:44:13this man, Michael Smith, stole the Ocean Heart
00:44:15I was about to arrest him
00:44:17and bring him to you and the Don for judgment
00:44:20you're accusing him of theft?
00:44:22with absolute certainty
00:44:23this man is the thief
00:44:26your accusation means nothing
00:44:28with the president standing right here
00:44:30your lies won't save you
00:44:31besides, we have witnesses
00:44:35oh?
00:44:37who?
00:44:41President Marlott
00:44:42I can testify
00:44:44Michael stole the Ocean Heart
00:44:46he's always been shady
00:44:48we can back that up
00:44:51it's true
00:44:53this man has zero respect for Desert Crown's authority
00:44:56you need to make an example out of him
00:45:00they're lying
00:45:01my father would never steal anything
00:45:05easy son
00:45:07the truth doesn't change just because they want it to
00:45:11President Marlott
00:45:12I trust Michael completely
00:45:13I hope you'll investigate this properly
00:45:15and not be manipulated by these people
00:45:19I know exactly what the truth is
00:45:23what if I told you
00:45:25I did give it to him
00:45:32what?
00:45:33how is this possible?
00:45:36everyone out
00:45:37now
00:45:41cutting it a little close, weren't you?
00:45:44traffic
00:45:44you know
00:45:45what is going on?
00:45:47even the president is taking his side
00:45:49the president of Desert Crown Holdings
00:45:52giving him the Ocean Heart
00:45:54Brandon
00:45:54what if he's
00:45:55what if he's the Don?
00:45:56if he really is the Don
00:45:58after everything we did to him
00:46:00we're dead
00:46:02what do we do now?
00:46:03Brandon, you have to fix this
00:46:05fix it
00:46:05there's nothing to fix
00:46:06we're all going down
00:46:09Michael
00:46:11who are you really?
00:46:12Dad
00:46:13are you the Don of Desert Crown?
00:46:16the Don?
00:46:17me?
00:46:18come on
00:46:18I can barely manage my cleaning supplies
00:46:20then explain how the president gave you the Ocean Heart
00:46:23she answers to one person
00:46:25the Don
00:46:27Dad
00:46:30why don't we let President Marlott explain
00:46:32tell them why you gave me the Ocean Heart
00:46:37the Don still wants to stay hidden
00:46:39but how am I supposed to explain this?
00:46:45well
00:46:45Mr. Smith here provided exceptional service as a hotel staff member
00:46:50I was so impressed that I rewarded him with the Ocean Heart
00:46:57that's it
00:46:58I heard Desert Crown acquired the Ocean Heart at enormous cost
00:47:01specifically as a gift for the Don
00:47:03the Don of Desert Crown possesses wealth beyond imagination
00:47:07trillions
00:47:08something like the Ocean Heart
00:47:09probably just a trinket to him
00:47:12wouldn't you agree President Marlin?
00:47:17absolutely
00:47:18the Don would barely notice something like this
00:47:23thank God
00:47:24he's not the Don
00:47:26the Ocean Heart as a reward for good customer service
00:47:28he just got insanely lucky
00:47:30the Don operates in complete secrecy
00:47:32you really thought we'd just stumble across it?
00:47:33Mr. Reid
00:47:33I've received reports that you've been embezzling corporate funds for personal gain
00:47:37the evidence is compelling
00:47:39take him into custody
00:47:47President Marlin
00:47:48could you wait a moment?
00:47:50is there something else?
00:47:52there's a small matter I'd like to ask about
00:47:54if it's not too much trouble
00:47:56please Ms. Hart speak freely
00:47:57I'll share what I can
00:47:58I've heard that Desert Crown hosts a major investment conference every 10 years
00:48:02is that true?
00:48:04it is
00:48:04the next one is in three months
00:48:05Desert Crown uses these conferences to identify the most promising company in the country
00:48:10then partners with them exclusively
00:48:12maximum resources, full backing
00:48:14how do you know all this?
00:48:16just things I've picked up working around the casinos and hotels
00:48:19could be wrong though
00:48:21actually, Mr. Smith's formation is accurate
00:48:23are you thinking of participating?
00:48:25yes
00:48:25Meridian Ventures has grown steadily
00:48:27but we've plateaued
00:48:28we're confined to the southwest
00:48:29with Desert Crown's backing
00:48:31we could expand nationwide
00:48:32maybe even become a top layer in enterprise
00:48:34ambitious
00:48:35I respect that Ms. Hart
00:48:36but the final decision rests solely with the Don
00:48:41I'm probably dreaming
00:48:43the competition will be insane
00:48:46there are dozens of companies
00:48:47Morris established than Meridian Ventures
00:48:49my chances are slim at best
00:48:52don't sell yourself short
00:48:54you have one advantage
00:48:56none of them possess
00:48:58what advantage?
00:49:02what do you mean?
00:49:04Evelyn
00:49:04I'm certain you'll succeed
00:49:07but it's getting late
00:49:09we should let her go
00:49:10right
00:49:11of course
00:49:13President Marla
00:49:14thank you for your time
00:49:15I'll see you at the investment conference
00:49:21oh, I almost forgot
00:49:23I found us a new place this afternoon
00:49:25our new home
00:49:28moving in together already?
00:49:30well
00:49:30we are legally married now
00:49:33can't back out now
00:49:34Aaron
00:49:35would you like to come see it too?
00:49:37no thanks
00:49:38don't want to be the third wheel
00:49:40on your newlywed tour
00:49:43alright then
00:49:44let's go
00:49:58so what do you think of the neighborhood?
00:50:01quite nice
00:50:03but these homes must be expensive
00:50:06comfort isn't cheap
00:50:10besides I'm paying
00:50:12why worry?
00:50:15makes me feel a little like dead weight
00:50:19nonsense
00:50:20just sit back
00:50:21and enjoy the good fortune
00:50:22while it lasts
00:50:27I think I left my phone in the car
00:50:29our place is just ahead of this path here

00:51:17I must have been blind back then
00:51:19school popularity
00:51:20doesn't pay the bills
00:51:21reality has a way of humbling people
00:51:24so Michael

00:51:28this is an exclusive community

00:51:42the most exclusive community
00:51:44in Nevada
00:51:44every homeowner here
00:51:46is either wealthy

00:51:48do you really think
00:51:49you belong?
00:51:50I have no reason to lie
00:51:51it took us decades
00:51:53of hard work
00:51:54and the right connections
00:51:54just to afford
00:51:55the smallest lot

00:52:07that estate's worth
00:52:08over a billion dollars
00:52:09money alone can't buy it
00:52:11you need connections

00:52:58to the bit
00:52:59walking all the way up here
00:53:00but you didn't actually
00:53:01think we'd fall for it
00:53:02did you?
00:53:02do we look that stupid?
00:53:04unless you can prove
00:53:05you're the owner

00:53:06if you're really the owner

00:55:40in every boardroom
00:55:41in Vegas
00:55:42I don't care what they think
00:55:47let's cut through the bullshit

00:56:30I guess we do this to the hard way
00:56:30where you are
00:56:30you are
00:56:34ahhhhhh
00:56:45Three seconds, four seconds, five seconds.
00:56:58Nice pen.
00:57:12You, you can't.
00:57:19I believe you were about to leave.
00:57:21You heard my husband.
00:57:28This isn't finished, not by a long shot.
00:57:40Where did you learn to fight like that?
00:57:45Here and there.
00:57:48I can't believe you just...
00:57:50That was so dangerous.
00:57:57You ruined your clothes, too.
00:57:59Boys, come on.
00:58:01Let's get you cleaned up, tough guy.
00:58:10Humiliated by a damn janitor.
00:58:14I didn't want to do this, but I'm left with no choice.
00:58:21Victor?
00:58:22Yeah, about that favor you owe me.
00:58:24It's Daniel Hart.
00:58:25My sister just married some old maintenance worker, and she's still desperate for Desert Crown's backing.
00:58:31I was wondering if you could...
00:58:36Tonight?
00:58:37That fast?
00:58:38Perfect.
00:58:39I'll make sure she's there.
00:58:49This contact Daniel's talking about, you think they actually have pull with Desert Crown?
00:58:55Or is this just more of his usual hot air?
00:58:59It's late, Eve.
00:59:00We could do this tomorrow.
00:59:02Fresh eyes, clear heads.
00:59:06You don't get it.
00:59:07This is everything.
00:59:08If I don't take every shot I can, I'll never forgive myself.
00:59:11Here's the thing.
00:59:12From what I understand, the final call at the investment conference belongs to the Don.
00:59:16Period.
00:59:16So even if this mystery contact has connections, can they really override that?
00:59:21Maybe not.
00:59:22But I still have to try.
00:59:24Wait for me outside, okay?
00:59:26I won't be long.
00:59:42A bar?
00:59:43Seriously?
00:59:44Who meets at a place like this for business?
00:59:48You want answers?
00:59:50They're through that door.
01:00:01Allow me to introduce you to Victor Castellona.
01:00:05Son of Desert Crown's Chancellor.
01:00:11The Chancellor's son?
01:00:19Please, have a seat.
01:00:25Chancellor?
01:00:26I've heard of the Don and President Marlow, but this position seems new?
01:00:31Shows how much you don't know.
01:00:32The Don runs Desert Crown Holdings, but directly under him, two key positions.
01:00:38The President and the Chancellor.
01:00:42Your brother's right.
01:00:44Think of Desert Crown as more than a company.
01:00:47It's an empire.
01:00:48President Marlin handles the business side.
01:00:51The legitimate operations.
01:00:53My father, he manages everything else.
01:00:57The machinery that keeps the wheels turning.
01:01:00I see.
01:01:01I see.
01:01:01And the investment conference?
01:01:03I can help.
01:01:04I won't promise you'll win.
01:01:07That would be dishonest.
01:01:09But I can significantly improve Meridian Ventures' odds.
01:01:14Stack the deck in your favor, so to speak.
01:01:16That would be incredible.
01:01:18Name your price.
01:01:19Whatever the outcome, you'll be compensated fairly.
01:01:22Please.
01:01:23I don't need compensation.
01:01:26I have everything money can buy.
01:01:28Consider this a gesture of friendship.
01:01:34To new partnerships and mutual success.
01:01:41The man's offering to help you crack into Desert Crown.
01:01:44The least you can do is share a drink.
01:02:03I've heard plenty about Meridian Ventures' president.
01:02:07They say you're the most beautiful woman in Las Vegas.
01:02:11But the rumors, they don't even come close.
01:02:18It's getting late.
01:02:19I should go.
01:02:21I need to get back to my home.
01:02:29The drink.
01:02:31It was...
01:02:32What's happening?
01:02:33What's wrong?
01:02:38Congratulations, boss.
01:02:40The most untouchable woman in Vegas.
01:02:42Not so untouchable anymore.
01:02:45You.
01:02:47I had you finally...
01:02:49You did more than that.
01:02:51Thanks to Michael and that bitch Sophia, I lost everything.
01:02:55My position.
01:02:56My reputation.
01:02:58Now, I'm even facing federal prison.
01:03:00Victor, what the hell is this?
01:03:03What's this?
01:03:04You really are as stupid as you look.
01:03:07You think Victor gives a damn about some trust fund baby with a gambling problem?
01:03:11He was never interested in you, you idiot.
01:03:14He wanted your sister.
01:03:30What's taking so long?
01:03:36Why are you doing this?
01:03:38You really need to ask?
01:03:40A woman like you, powerful, untouchable, beautiful, you made yourself irresistible.
01:03:47Victor, if you touch my sister, I'll kill you!
01:03:56I'm not just going to touch her, Daniel.
01:03:59I'm going to make you watch every single second.
01:04:02And you're going to remember this moment for the rest of your pathetic life.
01:04:09No, please!
01:04:10Let her go!
01:04:11Shut this loser up.
01:04:14I have a husband.
01:04:16He'll find you.
01:04:18That old Jameter, please.
01:04:20He hasn't even touched you yet, has he?
01:04:22Which means you're still mine to claim.
01:04:25A gift, really.
01:04:26Unopened.
01:04:27No!
01:04:35Get your filthy hands off her!
01:04:40Michael.
01:04:43I have guards outside.
01:04:44How did you get in?
01:04:45Those rent-a-thugs?
01:04:46They weren't much of an obstacle.
01:04:48As a member of Desert Crown Holdings, you should know better than to act like this.
01:04:51Or aren't you afraid of what happens when the organization finds out?
01:04:55Finds out?
01:04:56About what?
01:04:57A business meeting?
01:04:58Old man, you really don't understand how this works.
01:05:00Victor's the Chancellor's son.
01:05:01Nobody in Desert Crown would dare touch him.
01:05:03Nobody.
01:05:04Even President Marlin thinks twice before crossing me.
01:05:07I'm untouchable.
01:05:08What about the Don?
01:05:09The Don?
01:05:12He operates at a level so far above this, he wouldn't even notice.
01:05:18I suggest you turn around, walk out, and pretend you were never here.
01:05:40I'm not sure.
01:05:42I'm not sure.
01:05:42I'm not sure.
01:05:43I'm not sure.
01:05:43I'm not sure.
01:05:44I'm not sure.
01:05:44I'm not sure.
01:05:45I'm not sure.
01:05:46I'm not sure.
01:05:47I'm not sure.
01:05:49I'm not sure.
01:05:51I'm not sure.
01:05:53I'm not sure.
01:05:55I'm not sure.
01:06:03are you i'm the man you shouldn't have touched my father your father should have taught you better
01:06:10you're gonna leave las vegas tonight you're gonna tell your father that if he ever wants

01:07:24so
01:07:33so
01:07:34so
01:07:50Welcome back to the land of the living.
01:07:52How do you feel?
01:07:59Better.
01:08:00Clearer.
01:08:01Especially after.
01:08:02A night of vigorous exercise?
01:08:04Is that what you want to call it?
01:08:06You know, I could probably go a few more reps.
01:08:10As your personal trainer this morning, I really must insist that you take it easy and eat your breakfast.
01:08:18Oh, stop.
01:08:22It's just a shame.
01:08:23My chance with Desert Crown is completely ruined.
01:08:26Why would you say that?
01:08:27Michael, be realistic.
01:08:29He's the Chancellor's son.
01:08:31He has connections we can't match.
01:08:33Trust me on this.
01:08:34You should still attend the conference.
01:08:37In fact, I guarantee you're going to want to be there.
01:08:41Claire, tell me we have everything ready.
01:08:43Please tell me we're not about to humiliate ourselves.
01:08:46All available capital has been mobilized, President.
01:08:48Fifty billion dollars, liquid and verified.
01:08:50That sounds like a fortune until you look around this room.
01:08:53Half these companies could match that without blinking.
01:08:56Then what are we doing here?
01:08:57Why subject yourself to this?
01:08:59Because Michael said to come.
01:09:00He said he had a surprise.
01:09:03Speaking of, where is he?
01:09:05Well, look who's here.
01:09:11Victor, what happened to you?
01:09:15Ask your husband.
01:09:17He's a dead man.
01:09:18Today.
01:09:20He dies today.
01:09:32I wouldn't bet on that.
01:09:34You...
01:09:39I thought I told you to leave Las Vegas.
01:09:43You think Meridian Ventures is going to win?
01:09:46Based on what exactly?
01:09:47Your dazzling personality?
01:09:49Why do you keep showing up where you don't belong?
01:09:53Shouldn't you be mopping floors somewhere?
01:09:55Scrubbing toilets?
01:09:58The balls on this guy.
01:09:59A glorified handyman?
01:10:01You think you can just declare victory and make it happen?
01:10:04You asked how.
01:10:05Simple answer.
01:10:07Through me.
01:10:10Everyone hear that?
01:10:11This is gold.
01:10:13Absolutely priceless.
01:10:16Mike, what are you doing?
01:10:18How can you possibly guarantee this?
01:10:25Please tell me you have an actual plan.
01:10:27Please.
01:10:27Relax.
01:10:28Both of you.
01:10:28Trust me.
01:10:30Okay, okay.
01:10:31I'll bite.
01:10:31Since you're so confident Meridian Ventures win, let's put it to the test.
01:10:34Capital verification.
01:10:36Right here, right now.
01:10:37The company my family backs has 90 billion in liquid assets.
01:10:40With some strategic liquidations, we could push past 100 billion without breaking a sweat.
01:10:44What?
01:10:44That's immense.
01:10:46It's impossible.
01:10:47We scraped together 50 billion.
01:10:49That's everything.
01:10:49We can't compete with that.
01:10:51Hear that?
01:10:52That's reality knocking.
01:10:5450 billion versus a thousand billion.
01:10:56That's not a gap, sweetheart.
01:10:57That's a canyon.
01:10:59What if I told you this changes everything?
01:11:13That's their crown royal card.
01:11:16Those cards, there's only five in existence.
01:11:18Each one has access to Jesus Christ trillions.
01:11:22What's going on?
01:11:24You'll understand everything soon.
01:11:25Promise.
01:11:26So, does this answer your capital verificate question?
01:11:29How does someone like you have a desert crown royal card?
01:11:31Who the hell are you?
01:11:32Does it matter?
01:11:33What matters is that Meridian Adventures just passed capital verification with room to spare.
01:11:37Not so fast.
01:11:38How do we even know that's real?
01:11:40Anyone can get a piece of black plastic printed.
01:11:42Someone give me a card reader.
01:11:43Now!
01:11:47Give it here.
01:11:48And if this turns out to be fake, I'll have you arrested for fraud.
01:11:51God himself won't be able to save you.
01:11:54Current available balance, one trillion dollars.
01:11:58Impossible.
01:11:59It's genuine.
01:12:00How do you have access to this kind of money?
01:12:02A trillion dollars?
01:12:04Does it change anything?
01:12:04When I had nothing, you married me anyway.
01:12:06Now that I have money, does that matter to you?
01:12:09You.
01:12:10No, it doesn't.
01:12:11Wait!
01:12:11Everyone, wait!
01:12:12Capital verification means nothing.
01:12:14The final decision on the partnership belongs to the Don.
01:12:17Only the Don can authorize this.
01:12:19You're absolutely right.
01:12:21Which is why I invited him.
01:12:23You can come in now.
01:12:32Greetings, Don Moretti.
01:12:36The Don?
01:12:37My brother-in-law is the Don of Desert Crown Holdings?
01:12:41Michael, is this real?
01:12:43You're...
01:12:44Dad, you let me stock shelves and worry about rent for 24 years
01:12:48while you were running a trillion dollar empire?
01:12:51It was for your own good, kid.
01:12:53You turned out a better man than I could have hoped for.
01:13:00Victor, stay.
01:13:07I hereby announce that Meridian Ventures
01:13:09will become Desert Crown Holdings' exclusive strategic partner.
01:13:13Effective immediately,
01:13:14they will receive priority access to all resources,
01:13:17networks, and infrastructure,
01:13:19backed by an initial investment of one trillion dollars.
01:13:30So, how's that for a marriage proposal?
01:13:32The last time I checked, we were already married.
01:13:35Legally, sure.
01:13:37But we never had a real proposal,
01:13:39a real moment.
01:13:40Evelyn Hart,
01:13:41will you marry me?
01:13:42Again?
01:13:43Properly this time?
01:13:45I...
01:13:46I will!
01:13:49Aaron,
01:13:50you've spent your whole life thinking you were nobody,
01:13:52but you're my son,
01:13:54and it's time you learned how to run this empire.
01:13:56I'm putting him under your guidance.
01:13:59Teach him everything.
01:14:05Don't worry, Dad.
01:14:06As for you three,
01:14:07you threatened my wife,
01:14:09you drubbed her,
01:14:10you tried to...
01:14:11I don't even want to say it.
01:14:12You're lucky I'm in a good mood.
01:14:13Deal with them.
01:14:15Quietly, but thoroughly.
01:14:16And make sure everyone understands
01:14:18this is what happens when you forget who you work for.
01:14:27My father will hear about this.
01:14:29You're dead.
01:14:30All of you.
01:14:44Everyone in position for the photo.
01:14:51You're dead.
01:14:52You're dead.
01:14:53You're dead.
01:14:55You're dead.
01:14:56You're dead.
01:14:57You're dead.
01:14:57You're dead.
01:14:58You're dead.
01:14:58You're dead.
