00:01Previously on The Season
00:04I'll have a name soon.
00:05I wouldn't think much about her.
00:0722 years ago you helped me resolve the situation.
00:11A few bad investments.
00:13Selling the hotel will cover our debts.
00:15Let me represent its sale.
00:16I'll give you a show.
00:17I want to buy it.
00:19So maybe there's a deal to be had.
00:21What sort of deal are we talking about?
00:24I'd like to take you out.
00:25Where would you like to go?
00:26Surprise me.
00:30You know who started the rumor?
00:32I'm not gonna leave Hong Kong
00:33till everyone sees the snake that you really are.
00:36You don't know these people.
00:37I've been studying them for years.
00:39I'd like a one-on-one with you.
00:40I want to learn about you.
00:41He framed you and robbed me of a father.
00:44I can't just let that go.
00:45Nigel got an address off the visitor log.
00:47How do you want this managed?
00:49No, no sense.
00:52Someone's toying with us.
00:53I'm gonna get close to Christopher.
00:55Clear your name and then take the Hex family down.
01:10You're been trying in a way.
01:11After all, you'reawayin a true死.
01:12You're sick.
01:13You you're coming.
01:16...I expect that they are coming.
01:17You're just getting ready for him.
01:19Go Him.
01:20Go.
01:29No, God, give us again our souls to the突ots.
01:29Where are you going?
01:43You try to be quiet.
01:43There are plenty of you going to go there.
01:47Heidi, Heidi, stop trying to get a point in trouble!
01:50Look!
01:50Take care of your eyes!
01:55See you!
01:55You can't find a point where you can get started.
01:59I'm not sure how you do it.
02:00The black tie, the boxing gloves. It will be marvelous.
02:04You really love this event.
02:06What's wrong with a little bloodsport?
02:08Why call a knockout?
02:10No, a touch violent for the occasion.
02:12A charity boxing match should benefit the children.
02:15Your husband will do great.
02:18You know what this means for me.
02:21Fix this joint.
02:24Thank you, Gloria.
02:49Mr. Hux is expecting you.
02:52Mr. Hux is expecting you.
03:07Captain of the Oxford Boxing Club.
03:11I still miss it.
03:13So you don't box anymore?
03:16I fight in different ways now.
03:20Now, unfortunately, I have a very busy morning.
03:23I may be pulled away, but until then, the floor is yours, underdog.
03:32Well, it is an honor to learn from somebody who built an empire.
03:36That particular privilege goes to my great-grandfather, not me.
03:41I've read every article on you that I could find.
03:44But what none of them explain, and what I'd love to hear, is who else you depend on?
03:50An army.
03:52There's my senior leadership team.
03:54Outside partners, like your employer.
03:58And, of course, my wife.
04:01What you don't see are the sacrifices it requires.
04:07Do you have any regrets?
04:17It took Carrie three seasons to get an interview with me.
04:24You've done it in a month.
04:28That takes ambition and a plan.
04:34I'm curious to know what that is exactly.
04:41I'm here to learn everything about you.
04:45To be in a better position to join your financial team.
04:49I just have a few more questions.
04:52Unfortunately, our time is up.
04:54Duty calls.
05:01Your staff.
05:02I imagine you depend on them, too?
05:06Of course.
05:08We throw them a Lunar New Year party every year.
05:11As a way of saying thank you.
05:17How long have you been doing those?
05:20Generations.
05:33Twenty-two years ago, Lunar New Year is on February 1st, the date of the accident.
05:38Did the Hex throw a party for the staff?
05:41They did.
05:43And were you there?
05:44I was at the party when Christopher took the car.
05:49What is this foolishness about?
05:51It means you have an alibi.
05:53If we can find someone who will testify, they could retry the case.
05:56There is no we.
05:58There is no we, Cola.
06:00You don't know how things work here.
06:03Here you are with Gloria, their house manager.
06:07Was she at the party?
06:09Yes.
06:10But if she's still with them, her loyalty lies with the Hex.
06:14We don't know that.
06:15I just need to get her alone.
06:16There's so much you don't know.
06:19Then tell me.
06:21Cola.
06:21Cola.
06:22You have a good job.
06:24A future.
06:26If you keep digging, they will discover you and ruin your life.
06:32You must let this go.
06:33Now.
06:36You may have quit fighting.
06:39But I haven't.
07:00I just want to go.
07:01I'll see you.
07:06Bye.
07:07Bye.
07:07Bye.
07:08Bye.
07:57Mr. Stranger.
07:59I give you a title that guarantees you free pussy, and you use it on Carrie Shen?
08:06All right, take five.
08:08I was just getting started.
08:09You think I know how to plan a surprise for a woman I've known for years?
08:13You put so much pressure on everything, ever since you were a fucking kid.
08:18Maybe something more casual, like a hike?
08:20When have you ever seen Carrie Shen wear sneakers?
08:25What about you?
08:26How's the fight for the Percy going?
08:28Perfect.
08:29I've got an anchor investor all locked up.
08:31Yet there's still shortfall.
08:34Yeah, I've got it covered.
08:35It's me and Nikita to talk to her family.
08:37Sounds like you don't have a hotel yet.
08:42Bro, I have a master plan.
08:44Okay.
08:44Yeah, you of all people should know, Andrew Phone doesn't go down without a fight.
08:58You're the best friend of mine.
09:00And you can still keep your hair on your hair.
09:01That means I'll be good for you.
09:04I'm not a perfect friend of mine.
09:07I'll be like.
09:08That's right.
09:12What do you think about recently?
09:15It's pretty good.
09:17I think that my daughter is just a person.
09:19My husband has something to do with me.
09:20I've never told my daughter I have a problem.
09:24I just need to keep up appearances with the other families.
09:28Thank you, Doctor. You may see yourself out.
09:31You should be careful.
09:50I have secured an MC for white-collar knockout.
09:55But no spoilers.
09:57Girl, you know it's gonna be someone famous.
10:00I'm sure you'll all be very surprised.
10:02Oh, Madeline's here.
10:09Madeline, we weren't expecting you.
10:12I'm sure.
10:12But I couldn't stand how I left things.
10:16And I know these do not make up for my outburst at our last meeting.
10:20But I do hope they show just how sorry I am.
10:25Yeah.
10:26Oh, Auntie, your gift will be coming soon.
10:30Oh, a good one.
10:32Mmm.
10:34For bringing me onto the commute.
10:38How thoughtful.
10:40Though it is a little early for gift-giving season.
10:43Thoughtfulness knows no time of the year.
10:55Sorry.
10:56I got held up at the land registry getting the hotel deed.
11:00Question.
11:01If a man says he's taking you on a surprise date,
11:04how many days do you wait until he's clearly forgotten?
11:07David probably planned the perfect thing.
11:09Just give it time.
11:11I do have a sales deck due.
11:14The numbers are not equating to one billion.
11:17So we need to sell the story.
11:20In my one-on-one, Christopher kept talking about family.
11:23What if we made the deck more personal?
11:26Feature, hex family photos through the years.
11:29If you think I can call up Christopher asking for family photos.
11:33We could go through Gloria.
11:37You sold Christopher on legacy.
11:39He'll know the value when he sees the deck.
11:43My helper, Pretty, goes to church with her seven times a week.
11:47I'll have her reach out.
11:48Do you know which church?
11:50Saint, who cares?
11:51I'll just speak with Pretty at home.
11:53Carrie, I can take this off your plate.
11:57Am I interrupting?
12:00No, come in.
12:02Mr. Hex wanted me to deliver these documents and remind you of the urgency of the sale.
12:07I'm very aware, John.
12:09Of course.
12:10Additionally, we'll be conducting background checks for everyone on the deal.
12:15I personally vet all of my employees.
12:19I'm sure that you do.
12:21Sure.
12:22Whatever Mr. Hex wants.
12:25We'll be in touch, Ms. Shen.
12:28Ms. Pearce.
12:34You sure that one-on-one went well?
12:37Mm-hmm.
12:52Good night, sir.
12:53I'm going.
13:01Oh, my God!
13:01Faith!
13:02Faith!
13:03Andrew!
13:04Ooh!
13:05My favourite entrepreneur.
13:07I catch you at a bad time.
13:08Actually, we were just at the Peninsula for high tea.
13:13Yeah, I had two champagnes, please.
13:15But we've always got time for you.
13:18I think we can do business together.
13:20Yes.
13:21I mean, if it makes sense for us.
13:24Yeah.
13:25I am going to buy the Percy.
13:27And I think your product could be the perfect house vodka.
13:31Premium vodka.
13:33Whatever.
13:33The problem is, I've heard of some toxic mould at the hotel.
13:39Now, if someone could find that toxic mould and leak it to the press,
13:45that might knock out any competitors.
13:48Speed up my purchase.
13:49Why would you buy a hotel with toxic mould?
13:52I'm sure we could find some mould and we'd leak it to...
13:54Queenie Ng at The Current.
13:57I've got to go.
13:58Do you go?
13:59Go.
14:00Uh, fancy seeing you here.
14:04At my favourite noodle shop.
14:06Yeah, that you won't shut up about.
14:07Hey, so, um, I was craving something.
14:11I don't know if it's on the menu.
14:12I was thinking maybe we should go across the road to the motel and check it out.
14:15Not the time.
14:17Uh, but since you're here, do you know of any good lawyers?
14:24The reading of the will is tomorrow.
14:27Why didn't you ask David?
14:28Thomas' kids already have David's firm on retainer.
14:31Well then, you're getting nothing.
14:34I don't even care.
14:36I'm tired of dealing with it alone.
14:38I just want it to be over.
14:42Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?
14:46Well, I want the judge to like me, so...
14:50No, I'm serious.
14:51Do you want me to go with you?
14:58It's okay.
15:00You're not that kind of guy, Andrew.
15:09From its charming local markets to the dazzling views of Victoria Harbour,
15:13Hong Kong offers a world of wonders.
15:16Yet nothing compares to the history of the Percy Hotel.
15:19Change the photo in the top right and make it 5% bigger.
15:22The deck is great, Carrie.
15:24It must be flawless.
15:26Christopher's nervous for some reason, so we can't be.
15:31We're unflappable.
15:34What is David doing here?
15:36Oh, I called him.
15:38What?
15:39You were waiting on a surprise.
15:41Wait no further.
15:43The line you crossed is so far, I can't even see it.
15:45Look, you were worried about your relationship with Christopher,
15:47and I was worried I'd mess it up.
15:49David's his lawyer, he would know.
15:51I can't just tell him to put in a good word for me.
15:53Why not?
15:54David!
15:55Hi!
15:56Hi.
15:56Cola said you wanted to see me.
15:58I had to be in person.
16:01She seems to be a mind reader.
16:03I think so.
16:06Because I wanted to see you too.
16:08I've been racking my brain for ideas for a date,
16:10and I didn't know if you wore tennis shoes.
16:16You could go right now.
16:18Spontaneous surprise!
16:19Carrie, you've been here for so many hours.
16:22You deserve a break.
16:23I can send the deck off.
16:24I could play hokey.
16:25I could cancel an appointment.
16:29But what would we do?
16:36Actually, I just had a great idea.
16:39Shall we?
16:55Nothing says no pressure like leaving Central.
16:59I think I need to go farther.
17:03The Percy's always in view, consuming my every thought.
17:07But...
17:08Hold on a sec.
17:18Let's not be ourselves today.
17:21I don't understand.
17:27We're tourists.
17:30We are on our honeymoon.
17:34We don't even know what the Percy is.
17:39We came straight from our ranch-style wedding in Texas.
17:43You looked stunning in your denim dress.
17:48I didn't get a single drop of barbecue sauce on it.
17:56And if we're not going to be ourselves, we should turn our phones off.
18:09So, where do we go next?
18:12I read about some magical places on the tourism board website.
18:16Maybe we could go to Big Buddha.
18:20Or...
18:21The Little Buddha.
18:24Or...
18:25Baby Buddha.
18:26Or Mini Buddha.
18:27Or Mini Buddha.
19:06Yes?
19:07Charlie, I was just at the Percy, and they've hardly set up a thing for white-collar knockout.
19:11Fiona, I'm dealing with far more important things right now.
19:13What exactly are you dealing with?
19:16It's nothing that concerns you.
19:19Christopher, I'm here.
19:21Talk to me.
19:23You're being ridiculous.
19:24I need to go.
19:26But I assure you that whatever other trivial committee matters may confront you today, they too will be fine.
19:32No, don't!
19:33Damn!
19:46I need you to come with me, Mrs. Hext.
19:48I need you to tell me what you're doing with my husband.
19:52It's okay.
19:53False alarm.
19:57Perhaps we could discuss somewhere private?
19:59We are having this conversation right here, John.
20:02Did Christopher blow up another part of our business?
20:05Is he having an affair?
20:07I suppose you know nothing about who he was meeting at the races.
20:13Mr. Hext could tell you more than I.
20:15Your loyalty is admirable.
20:18But lest you forget, you work for me too.
20:25I hope sparks are flying, since your phone's off.
20:29I sent the sales debt to Christopher, and I'm dropping your dress off from the races.
20:37Pretty?
20:39Are you here?
20:42I'd love to talk.
20:44I'd love to talk.
20:51How quite, how quite, all of a sudden upbringing?
20:58As a student increased.
20:59If you like helping others, this resource would also be very busy.
20:59It's okay.
21:05I wonder what that means to you to be a Parece, not me too.
21:05Don't you miss me.

27:21That is why you're here, isn't it?
27:24I'm here to pray if I could get some privacy.
27:29I just want to clear up a few things.
27:31You mentioned this was your first time in Hong Kong.
27:35But there are records of a Colleen Pierce in primary school here until the age of six.
27:43Primary school is covered in background checks now?
27:45That same year your school records began in the U.S.
27:52Yes, I was born here.
27:55But you know how these people are.
27:57Who would they look at more favorably, an upstart American or a poor Canto girl?
28:04And which are you?
28:10A woman fitting your description visited a man in prison a few days ago.
28:17Could you explain?
28:22There must be hundreds of women who fit my description.
28:29I'll be in touch.
28:32So...
28:56I'll be seeing David tonight at White Collar Knockout.
28:59I'm thinking of inviting him for a drink first.
29:02No, no.
29:03Let him come to you.
29:05You're the expert at orchestrating these things.
29:08You said David spoke to Christopher.
29:11It worked.
29:12This time.
29:13Next time you have a ridiculous scheme, clue me in first.
29:17Carrie, what a coincidence.
29:20Queenie.
29:21Sniffing around for a headline?
29:23I'm here for a comment.
29:25I'm here for a comment.
29:30I'm here for a comment.
29:31I'm here for a comment.
29:31Take this down immediately.
29:33You're giving me something better.
29:39What do we do?
29:41I'll handle the press.
29:42You move down the investor meetings, and you're coming with me to White Collar Knockout.
29:46Christopher's gonna be livid.
29:47You said it.
29:49This is only a problem, and like all problems, we'll beat them into submission.
29:54Wilson, Carrie, are you guys?
29:55CMP, you!
29:56Bob Kern, you talk to you.
30:36Mrs. Hex is asking when you will arrive at White Collar Nacalp.
30:41I am sorry about the article, sir.
30:43My family's been in Hong Kong for almost 150 years.
30:50This place wouldn't be what it is without the Hex name.
30:57I made a mistake during a stressful time.
31:01And I'm selling the Percy to set it right.
31:06I just didn't think it would be so bloody hot.
31:09You and Mrs. Hex have been to worse.
31:13There's a lot riding on this sale.
31:16And it's not our only problem.
31:18Speak with her.
31:20Ever since she became ill, I don't like to trouble her.
31:26Everything I've ever done, I've done for family.
31:31That's what's most important, as you know.
31:34I do.
31:34I do.
31:35I do.
32:00I do.
32:29It's Cola, you said you could get anything?
32:34I need something from you, for tonight.
33:05Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to White Color Lockdown, where all professionals swap their browsers, their Oscars, for shorts and gloves
33:16in the name of charity.
33:17Remember, every punch is for the kids.
33:21Let's make some noise.
33:28White.
33:31One, two, three, four, five.
33:39For the kids.
33:41Let's make some noise.
33:47We have a lot of fights tonight, and a lot of smiles to save.
33:51Mm-hmm.
33:52All this excitement, but it feels a bit, um, empty.
33:58Where's Christopher?
34:00Oh, Christopher.
34:01He's engaged in a match of his own.
34:09My usual.
34:10Yes, sir.
34:12Thanks for meeting me.
34:13Right, let's get this over with so I can try and enjoy the evening.
34:16I got the current article taken down in exchange for exclusive coverage of the Percy deal.
34:22I'm confident that if we delay the hotel sale for a few months, this whole mold thing will blow over.
34:27All right.
34:30You know what I like about boxing?
34:32No equipment, no paraphernalia.
34:34Just you and your opponent, and the best man wins.
34:41We keep the timetable of this hotel sale as it is, no matter what.
34:47David told me you were the best person for the job.
34:50You need to prove it.
34:52Then I'd better get to work.
34:54All right.
34:55Let's get the wall where we're going to go.
34:58You better!
35:00We have Eric Leichelberg versus front rebel rule!
35:08Fight!
35:10You're two fights late, and I've been entertaining alone.
35:13Well, I've been dealing with a mold situation.
35:16The current is covering the hotel sale, by the way.
35:19So there'll be plenty more events for you to dazzle about.
35:22Whatever it is that you need to do to snap out of this, do it.
35:26Your Christopher fucking hats.
35:29Act like it.
35:58No!
36:15Did I pay for the mediocre package?
36:17Nah, you asked for it then.
36:19You don't pay me at all.
36:22Head down.
36:23There you go.
36:27Do you have it?
36:29I'm a little tied up.
36:31Then we do it here.
36:38I've got to say, your request surprised me.
36:46David!
36:48Is your hand okay?
36:50Just getting in the spirit of things.
36:53Um, tell Andrew I said break a leg.
36:55I, I better go.
36:59Don't want to miss the action.
37:10Break it up.
37:13Fight!
37:14The last fight was better.
37:16Not everyone knows how to put on a show.
37:19Don't worry, darling.
37:20I will make you sing.
37:25You're running down on the restroom.
37:26Oh, it's so funny.
37:28Just a girl talk.
37:28So nice of you to have seen this, you auntie.
37:32Hmm.
37:32What nice jewelry.
37:34Counting diamonds to celebrate your windfall then.
37:36Hmm.
37:37Seems like gossip travels on the wings of angels.
37:40Fiona, we were discussing this mysterious dinner party you're throwing next week.
37:44Anything else you can tell us?
37:46Oh, like where my invitation went on to.
37:48I'm sure you're too busy to attend.
37:51Oh no, not at all.
37:52I'd love to come.
37:54Unless there's a reason you don't want me to be there.
37:58We'd love to have you.
38:00Bob.
38:05What's the matter?
38:08One of the fighters has gotten cold feet.
38:12We're gonna have a word.
38:18Stop!
38:20Yeah!
38:23Ain't neither wrong what it wants for all brilliant fighters.
38:27Woo!
38:34Everyone please direct your attention to the screen for our main event.
38:39We have a special video to show you.
38:44I'm Andrew Fung.
38:46No chains or punches harder than me.
38:48No, it turns your song.
38:50I wish he did it.
38:52I've burned a thousand calories before my opponents drop the kids off at school.
38:56Ride the grind.
38:56Yeah.
38:57You can call this by Jack and Beanstalk.
39:01Only this ain't no fairytale.
39:06Yeah!
39:07Come on!
39:10Come on!
39:15Yeah!
39:16Go go go!
39:19Yeah!
39:19Yeah, and a better call.
39:20I'm so excited.
39:24Yeah!
39:50I'm going to change the sound of you, but such a game for you
40:14I'm gonna do a deal with this guy.
40:45I'm gonna do a deal with this guy.
40:59Come on!
41:15Spears?
41:17Call up.
41:19I would like to finish the conversation we began the other day.
41:22Well, you can start by telling me how you knew I was at the church.
41:26Your phone.
41:28You didn't just delete a photo at the opening party.
41:31What a person does on their phone can be very revealing.
41:35When they choose to turn it off too.
41:38For example, when they visit a prison.
41:48I think Miss Pierce, you are a woman with much to hide.
41:52And you're a man who's always one misstep from being fired.
41:56Is that what you're grasping, John?
41:59Because you know what the heck's due to people they don't need anymore?
42:06And I still don't see any proof.
42:08You are a man.
42:15Fake name.
42:18Fake address.
42:21Tell me what you're doing here.
42:291, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
42:45Miss Pierce?
42:46Don't touch me!
42:47What's the matter here?
42:49I was in the hallway and I caught this man doing drugs.
42:52And then he chased me and he grabbed me.
42:54That's enough.
42:55I'm sure there's some kind of misunderstanding.
42:58I know what happened.
42:59Search him.
43:00You'll see I'm right.
43:01John?
43:04If it will resolve this issue?
43:06Quickly.
43:19You need to leave.
43:22Mr. X?
43:24John!
43:25You are speaking to me.
43:28You are fired.
43:29And you will walk out that door immediately.
43:31But you...
43:31Not one more word.
43:51I'm so sorry if this is...
43:52It's okay.
43:53It's okay.
43:54I'm pregnant.
43:57I'm pregnant.
43:58And our winner by knockdown, Christopher Hacks.
