00:00:19Hey Redneck, move this piece of shit. You're blocking the Asphalt Angels private strip.
00:00:28Asphalt Angels? Cute. But there's a lot of creeps out here tonight looking to clip those wings. Fly on home,
00:00:36girls.
00:00:39A hick preaching to us? You just bought yourself a one-way ticket to hell.
00:01:00What the hell? Who rolls deep like this?
00:01:04SHDW-01? The hell kind of plate is that?
00:01:07Holy shit. That's Federal. Thomas Caldwell? The Secretary of Defense? What the hell is he doing out here?
00:01:21Lexi, did they send a Black Ops team? Just cause we were speeding?
00:01:26Hey Grease Monkey! You're blocking the Secretary! Back the hell up before his men light you up!
00:01:36We are at your command, Overseer.
00:01:46The Secretary of Defense? Groveling like a servant? Just who the hell is this guy?
00:01:54Overseer. Flash traffic from Scentab. It's about Colonel Blake, your wife. Please come to the site.
00:02:01Let's go.
00:02:07Told you there were creeps out here tonight, sweetheart. Hold on to this tight next time.
00:02:13You may not be so lucky.
00:02:29The Overseer.
00:02:30The puppet master of the fabled Deep State.
00:02:33He holds the leashes to the Pentagon, Langley, and Capitol Hill from the shadows.
00:02:38He can make or break the president with a single phone call.
00:02:41Almost no one has ever seen his face. Why the hell is he here in person tonight?
00:02:44General Vaughn, the Overseer is waiting for the sit rep on the Middle East. Do not test patience.
00:02:51Yes, yes, sir. The high-value GRU asset, Ivan Volklov, orchestrated a massive kinetic strike on the Saudi oil fields.
00:02:57But JSOC intercepted. The Twin Stars, Colonel Vanessa Blake and Colonel Claire Monroe, led a Tier 1 element straight into
00:03:06the meat ring.
00:03:07They wiped Volklov's cell off the map. A flawless tactical victory.
00:03:11We... we await the Overseer's orders on commendations.
00:03:14For three years, the Overseer has been feeding Colonel Blake prime-cut intel, clearing her path to glory.
00:03:21This time, he had my black ops team shadowing her unit, making sure she took the kill shot.
00:03:26I've never seen him go this deep for anyone in this country.
00:03:30America's tired, Thomas. The country's hungry for a new kind of hero.
00:03:33Someone who can walk into that void and remind people what this flag is supposed to stand for.
00:03:37Vanessa is that woman.
00:03:38Draft the orders. Fast-track her to O-10. Four stars. Full general.
00:03:43And name her Commander of Senkai.
00:03:45Set up a promotion ceremony at the Hall of Heroes.
00:03:48I will pin those stars on her myself.
00:03:51The first female combat officer to hit four stars,
00:03:54and the Overseer is stepping out of the shadows to do it personally?
00:03:58This is going to send shockwaves through all of Washington.
00:04:05Daniel Cross, listen up.
00:04:07Colonel Blake ordered you home now.
00:04:09She's wheels up from Riata, and she has major news.
00:04:12Don't make her wait, you hear me?
00:04:15Son of a bitch, this rain.
00:04:17Vanessa's going to kill me if I'm late for her celebration.
00:04:19Daniel? Well, look at you!
00:04:24Claire?
00:04:26Let me guess.
00:04:27Playing the good husband for Vanessa's big night?
00:04:30Looks like it's not letting up.
00:04:32Where are you parked?
00:04:34Come on, get under. I'll walk you to your car.
00:04:40Both of us to squeeze under it?
00:04:42Oh, relax, Boy Scout.
00:04:44Vanessa and I are sisters in arms. Stop overthinking it.
00:04:47Unless you'd rather she tear your head off over a soggy cape?
00:05:00I am so sorry. I just slipped. Let's get you to your car. Now.
00:05:06Claire, thank you.
00:05:07Just drive safe, Daniel.
00:05:13Ness, you're finally back!
00:05:15I heard the news. Four stars, baby.
00:05:18I got your favorite cake to celebrate.
00:05:19Come here.
00:05:21Look at this cheap, sugar-floated garbage.
00:05:24You really think a four-star general eats this shit?
00:05:27Here. Divorce papers.
00:05:29General Blake already signed.
00:05:30Your turn.
00:05:32Baby.
00:05:33What do you mean?
00:05:35Daniel, wake up.
00:05:36Last night, the overseer personally made me a four-star general and handed me CENTCOM.
00:05:40We're not in the same league anymore.
00:05:42Truth is, we never were.
00:05:45Sign the damn papers.
00:05:46I want a divorce.
00:05:50What?
00:05:51You just got the promotion.
00:05:53Everything's finally lining up for us.
00:05:55Why are you divorcing me now?
00:05:59How shameless can you be, Daniel?
00:06:01You've been leeching off the general for three years.
00:06:04And you're still trying to sink your hooks in?
00:06:06Are you even a man?
00:06:08Baby, please.
00:06:09Listen to me.
00:06:10There are things you don't...
00:06:11Save your breath.
00:06:13I've got my promotion ceremony tonight.
00:06:15I don't have time for your drama.
00:06:16Just sign the damn papers.
00:06:19Vanessa, please.
00:06:21You don't understand.
00:06:22I'm actually...
00:06:22I know exactly who you are.
00:06:24Three years ago, you saved my life in a firefight.
00:06:27But I married you and carried your pathetic ass for three years to pay that debt.
00:06:31We're square.
00:06:32Look at us, Daniel.
00:06:34I'm putting on four stars, taking over CENTCOM.
00:06:37And you?
00:06:38You're just a freeloading, washed-up vet.
00:06:43A deadbeat like you doesn't deserve General Blake.
00:06:46Sign the damn papers.
00:06:49A freeloader?
00:06:50A deadbeat?
00:06:51You think I'm just some washout riding your cobbletails?
00:06:55If the shoe fits.
00:06:56You want the truth, Vanessa?
00:06:58Every single star on that collar, you only got them because of me!
00:07:02Daniel Cross, enough!
00:07:04You delusional piece of shit.
00:07:05That is exactly why I'm cutting you loose.
00:07:07I need a man with real power, like the Overseer.
00:07:10Not a pathetic charity case.
00:07:11Fine.
00:07:12You got it.
00:07:13But remember this, Vanessa.
00:07:15You're blind as hell.
00:07:17You're biting the hand that feeds you, and one day it'll choke you.
00:07:20You dare insult a four-star general?
00:07:22Do you have a death wish?
00:07:26Vanessa Blake, you're really gonna let your attack dog kill me in our own home?
00:07:31You're really begging for a bullet to the head?
00:07:33Drop it!
00:07:44Stepping way out of line, aren't you, Claire?
00:07:46He's your husband, Vanessa!
00:07:48For three years he treated you like a queen, and now you're tossing him out like trash?
00:07:52This is sick!
00:07:54Are you trying to lecture your commanding officer, Colonel Munro?
00:07:58You think this is sick?
00:07:59Let me show you what sick really looks like.
00:08:03Attention to orders, Colonel!
00:08:05For gross insubordination against a four-star general, I am stripping your bird.
00:08:09As of this second, you are busted down to E1.
00:08:12A buck ply it.
00:08:14Enjoy pulling gate guard in the rain.
00:08:16Vanessa!
00:08:17You've gone too far!
00:08:19Shut your mouth!
00:08:20You don't get a say in my orders!
00:08:22Vanessa!
00:08:23We bled together!
00:08:25We're sisters!
00:08:26How could you do this to me?
00:08:29We used to be JSOPS twin stars.
00:08:32Lucky you.
00:08:33But now, I am the first female four-star general in American history.
00:08:38The Overseer is pinning those stars on me personally tonight.
00:08:41My name is going in the history books.
00:08:44And you dare cross me over this pathetic loser?
00:08:47You brought this on yourself.
00:08:49Read the room, Private.
00:08:50You really think the Overseer gave her four stars just for her tactical genius?
00:08:54He is captivated by the general's beauty.
00:08:56She is going to be his wife.
00:08:58She is untouchable.
00:09:00Oh, I get it now.
00:09:02Vanessa, you actually think the Overseer has the hots for you?
00:09:05That's why you're so desperate to rush this divorce?
00:09:08Look at that.
00:09:10Smart for once.
00:09:12The Overseer commands the world, Daniel.
00:09:15You can't even command a woman.
00:09:17He is the kind of man I deserve.
00:09:19And Claire?
00:09:21This cheap besties bracelet you gave me?
00:09:24It's just like you.
00:09:25Pathetic and worthless.
00:09:27Take it and get the hell out!
00:09:33This, this is Claire's?
00:09:35The little girl?
00:09:37All these years, it was never Vanessa.
00:09:39It was Claire?
00:09:41Hi.
00:09:42What's your name?
00:09:43Where are your mom and dad?
00:09:47Are you hungry?
00:09:48Here.
00:09:48You can have my happy meal.
00:09:52Whoa!
00:09:52Slow down.
00:09:53My mom can buy you more if you're still hungry.
00:09:55There you are, you little brat.
00:09:57Your mommy's going to pay a fat ransom to get you back.
00:10:02Help!
00:10:03Let me go!
00:10:04Help!
00:10:10You saved me.
00:10:11Claire!
00:10:12What are you doing in this alley?
00:10:13It's not safe here.
00:10:14We have to go.
00:10:16Keep this.
00:10:17The lady at the store said they're magic.
00:10:19They always find their way back to each other.
00:10:21I'll see you again.
00:10:27Claire.
00:10:28It was you.
00:10:29The girl with the happy meal.
00:10:31I had the wrong person all along.
00:10:34And you were the boy who saved me?
00:10:37Oh my God, Daniel!
00:10:39That was you!
00:10:42It's me, Claire.
00:10:44God, I'm so sorry.
00:10:45I wasted all these years giving someone else what should have belonged to you.
00:10:51Failed to protect you.
00:10:53I handed Vanessa the world, and she used it to crush you.
00:10:57But tonight, everything she's ever dreamed of will be yours.
00:11:01Unbelievable.
00:11:03The second this parasite realizes he can't live off the general anymore, he's already clawing
00:11:09at the next woman to leech off of.
00:11:10He really has zero shame.
00:11:12It's pathetic.
00:11:13But I guess trash always ends up with trash.
00:11:17Sign the papers, Daniel, so you two can crawl back to the dumpster together.
00:11:23You heard the general, deadbeat.
00:11:24Sign and get the hell out.
00:11:27You want to clear the board so you can throw yourself at the overseer?
00:11:31Fine.
00:11:31You got it.
00:11:37But I swear to God, Vanessa, after tonight, you're going to regret this for the rest of
00:11:41your life.
00:11:42Daniel, this tough guy act just proves I was right about you all along.
00:11:47You're pathetic, delusional, a complete loser.
00:11:50Laugh it up while you still can.
00:11:53Tonight, those four stars you're so desperate for?
00:11:56I'm taking them.
00:11:57And I'm putting them on Claire.
00:12:03A washed up vet trying to take down a four-star general?
00:12:07Stop embarrassing yourself.
00:12:08The general got her promotion because Tristan Vaughn pulled strings at the Pentagon.
00:12:13He's the grandson of the U.S. Stratcom commander.
00:12:15You think you're more powerful than him?
00:12:18Bingo.
00:12:19I have Marcus Vonks on a leash.
00:12:21His spoiled grandson ain't worth shit.
00:12:27General, Mr. Tristan Vaughn has arrived.
00:12:32Vanessa, congrats.
00:12:33I just pulled a few strings at the Pentagon.
00:12:35The overseer is personally attending your ceremony tonight.
00:12:38General, all this attention from the overseer?
00:12:40The rumors must be true.
00:12:41I had my people fly in a few custom gowns for Milan.
00:12:45You're going to need something breathtaking tonight.
00:12:47Appreciate it, Mr. Vaughn.
00:12:49I'll go see how they fit.
00:12:51Tonight is my night.
00:12:52And what's a celebration without a little entertainment?
00:12:56So, I'm pulling rank.
00:12:58You two are on door duty.
00:13:01My watchdogs.
00:13:02Vanessa, this is out of line.
00:13:04Excuse me?
00:13:05Are you disobeying a direct order, Private?
00:13:08Yes, ma'am.
00:13:10Oh, we'll be there, Vanessa.
00:13:11Just don't come crying when the truth blows up in your face.
00:13:15We'll see who's crying tonight, Daniel.
00:13:18I can't wait.
00:13:24God, your wife has one hell of an ass.
00:13:27Oh, my bad.
00:13:28Ex-wife.
00:13:29Don't worry, pal.
00:13:30I'll take real good care of her for you.
00:13:32You got a death wish, frat boy?
00:13:37Ask yourself that, buddy.
00:13:39If I wasn't saving the fireworks for the ceremony tonight, you'd already be in a body bag loser.
00:13:55Overseer.
00:13:55Marcus Vaughn just put ten billion dollars on the table.
00:13:58All he asks is that.
00:13:59His grandson, Tristan, becomes your right-hand man.
00:14:01Ten billion?
00:14:03Looks like the old bastard has been skimming heavily from the military-industrial complex all these years.
00:14:07Let's see if you are smiling when you realize.
00:14:10The overseer your entire family is kissing ass to please.
00:14:13Is me.
00:14:14Tell Marcus I accept.
00:14:16Give the kid his audition tonight.
00:14:18Understood, sir.
00:14:19I'll make the call right now.
00:14:23Don't worry, Claire.
00:14:25Tonight, everything Vanessa has will be yours.
00:14:28And that brat's walking right into a trap he bought.
00:14:32Tristan, it's done.
00:14:34You are officially the overseer's right-hand man.
00:14:37Hell yes!
00:14:38Half the U.S. military is in our pocket now!
00:14:40And the best part?
00:14:42Vanessa has to please me first now to get to the overseer.
00:14:47She's trapped.
00:14:48She's mine.
00:15:01Wait.
00:15:02Isn't that General Blake's civilian husband?
00:15:04Why is he acting like Claire Monroe's side peek?
00:15:06You haven't heard?
00:15:07Claire was screwing him on the side,
00:15:09so General Blake dumped the deadbeat today
00:15:11and bust that bitch all the way down to gate guard.
00:15:14Trash always ends up with trash.
00:15:16What a shame.
00:15:17Claire's grandfather was a decorated four-star general,
00:15:20and she just dragged his legacy through the mud.
00:15:23Shut your mouths.
00:15:24Two desk jeppies aren't fit to speak her name.
00:15:29Daniel, cool it.
00:15:30Those two have stars on their collars.
00:15:32They are my commanding officers.
00:15:34You have no idea how powerful they are in the Pentagon.
00:15:38Powerful?
00:15:39Compared to who?
00:15:40Thomas Caldwell?
00:15:41Thomas Caldwell?
00:15:43He's the Secretary of Defense?
00:15:45The Overseer's closest confidant?
00:15:47He could end those generals with one phone call.
00:15:49Stay put.
00:15:50I have to go pay my respects before they write me up for insubordination.
00:15:56Generals.
00:15:57Private Monroe.
00:16:00Did your side piece fuck the sense out of you, Monroe?
00:16:03You're a WAP lock now?
00:16:04You don't have the rank to rub elbows with the brass.
00:16:06Get lost, Private.
00:16:08We're here for General Blake and the Overseer.
00:16:10We don't have time for trash.
00:16:11Yes, sir.
00:16:15Are you insane, Claire?
00:16:17Ever since your grandfather died,
00:16:18the Monroe family has been bleeding influence in D.C.
00:16:21We staked everything on your promotion.
00:16:24And you pissed out General Blake
00:16:26and got stripped of your rank?
00:16:28For him, a civilian deadbeat?
00:16:30How is this family supposed to survive?
00:16:32Mom, I...
00:16:33Shoot that parasite yourself
00:16:34and hand-deliver his head to General Blake.
00:16:37Beg for her forgiveness!
00:16:39Mrs. Monroe,
00:16:40Claire doesn't need to beg anyone.
00:16:42I say the word,
00:16:43and she doesn't just get her rank back.
00:16:45She gets promoted.
00:16:47Oh, is that right, loser?
00:16:48If you're so damn powerful,
00:16:50why don't you make Claire a four-star general
00:16:52and put Vanessa on gate duty?
00:16:57Funny you mention that, Mrs. Monroe.
00:16:59That is exactly the play.
00:17:01Oh, God.
00:17:01You might have brainwashed my daughter,
00:17:03but you are not conning me, deadbeat.
00:17:06Wow.
00:17:06Is the parasite spinning fairy tales now
00:17:08because General Blake kicked him to the curb?
00:17:10Pathetic.
00:17:11Word around the Pentagon
00:17:12is the Overseer is courting General Blake.
00:17:14She'll have more juice than the First Lady.
00:17:16This guy's just losing his mind with jealousy.
00:17:18General Blake and Monroe
00:17:19used to be the twin stars of JSOC.
00:17:22Now Blake has the world at her feet,
00:17:24and Monroe is rotting in the dumpster with her trash.
00:17:26Tragic, really.
00:17:28Please welcome Mrs. Beatrice Blake
00:17:31and Mr. Julian Blake!
00:17:36Mrs. Blake.
00:17:39Incredible night.
00:17:40Word is your daughter's about to be the Overseer's wife.
00:17:43A match made in heaven.
00:17:44We were actually hoping the general
00:17:46might make an introduction for us tonight.
00:17:48Just a brief handshake with the Overseer.
00:17:50I'm sure Vanessa can pencil you in, Generals.
00:17:53Just make sure you play ball with her at CENTCOMC.
00:17:56Of course, ma'am.
00:17:57We serve at her pleasure.
00:17:58Get on your knees!
00:17:59Both of you!
00:18:00Beg the Blakes for mercy
00:18:02before they destroy this family!
00:18:05Well, well, well.
00:18:06If it isn't my ex-brother-in-law,
00:18:08how the hell did a freeloader like you
00:18:09sneak into a Pentagon ceremony?
00:18:11Kneel to them?
00:18:12Trust me.
00:18:13Before the night's over,
00:18:14they'll be the ones on their knees begging me.
00:18:19You insulid bloodsucker!
00:18:21You bled the Blake family dry for three years,
00:18:24and you have the nerve to disrespect us?
00:18:27MPs, get in here!
00:18:29Mrs. Blake, please.
00:18:31He isn't thinking straight.
00:18:32I apologize on his behalf.
00:18:33Just let it go, please.
00:18:34Did you forget my daughter busted you down
00:18:36to a buck private, Claire?
00:18:38Your apologies don't mean jack shit.
00:18:40Get out of my way!
00:18:41Damn, Monroe.
00:18:42They weren't kidding.
00:18:43You're just like my sister.
00:18:46An absolute smoke show.
00:18:47Tell you what.
00:18:49You give me one night,
00:18:51and I'll let this piece of shit walk.
00:18:53I'll even ask Vanessa to give you your rank back.
00:18:57Hell of a deal, right?
00:18:59Don't waste your breath, Julian.
00:19:00She's a private.
00:19:02Just give her a direct order to spread her legs.
00:19:05Good point.
00:19:05Add attention, private.
00:19:07You belong to me tonight.
00:19:08Come with me right now.
00:19:09I'll show you some real action.
00:19:10Touch her again, Julian,
00:19:11and you lose the hand.
00:19:12Really, Cross?
00:19:12And how are you going to do that
00:19:14now that my sister kicked you out?
00:19:15By barking?
00:19:17Listen up.
00:19:18You are going to hand-deliver your girl
00:19:20to my penthouse in 30 minutes,
00:19:22and I'll give you a reward for that.
00:19:24I'll let you get on your knees
00:19:25and watch me wreck.
00:19:29Kid's got a hell of an appetite.
00:19:31Let's be real.
00:19:31Spreading her legs for Mr. Blake
00:19:33is an 010 promotion for dating a loser.
00:19:35You're just a dead man walking, Danny.
00:19:37You're begging to die, Julian.
00:19:40Let go, you psycho!
00:19:43Drop my son!
00:19:44Are you out of your mind?
00:19:46Let him go!
00:19:47Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome
00:19:49four-star general and CENTCOM commander
00:19:52Vanessa Blake.
00:19:55Daniel, what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:20:01Vanessa, this piece of trash just attacked me.
00:20:04He tried to kill me!
00:20:06He's lost his mind, Vanessa.
00:20:07You kicked him to the curb,
00:20:09so he crashed your ceremony to get back at you.
00:20:12Bullshit.
00:20:13Your brother was trying to rape Claire.
00:20:15I just gave him what he had coming.
00:20:17Enough!
00:20:17Julian is a gentleman.
00:20:19He would never pull something like that
00:20:21at a federal ceremony.
00:20:22Stop lying through your teeth, Daniel.
00:20:24Perfect.
00:20:25Typical Vanessa.
00:20:26You'll take the word of your mother,
00:20:27your slezbagged brother,
00:20:28hell, even your damn driver over mine.
00:20:30You never believed me.
00:20:31Not once.
00:20:32You're damn right, Daniel.
00:20:34Because even my driver is more useful
00:20:36than you ever were.
00:20:37The Overseer is arriving.
00:20:39You and Claire do not have the clearance
00:20:41to breathe in this room.
00:20:42Get the hell to your post!
00:20:44I don't have the clearance?
00:20:46We'll see about that.
00:20:47Are you deaf, deadbeat?
00:20:49Get your ass to the front door
00:20:51and full guard duty!
00:20:53Vanessa, do you really have to humiliate us like this?
00:20:56You're taking this way too far.
00:20:57Taking it too far?
00:20:58Let me remind you of your place, Private Monroe.
00:21:01Don't worry.
00:21:03When the ceremony's over,
00:21:04I'll save some scraps for you two watchdogs.
00:21:06Mr. Vaughn is the Overseer's right-hand man now.
00:21:09You should be on your knees thanking him
00:21:11for the charity, you ungrateful trash.
00:21:14Right.
00:21:15I almost forgot the best part of the show.
00:21:20Thomas, call Marcus Vaughn.
00:21:22Tell the commander of U.S. Stratcom
00:21:24he has ten minutes to get his ass down here.
00:21:27It's time for his grand entrance.
00:21:30Mr. Secretary, sir, what can I do for-
00:21:32Shut your mouth, Marcus.
00:21:34You have ten minutes to get your ass to the ceremony
00:21:36or I will personally bury you and your grandson tonight.
00:21:39What the hell?
00:21:40Get the car!
00:21:41Now!
00:21:42Tear up the streets if you have to!
00:21:44Just get me to that ceremony!
00:21:45A second-rate commander and a spoiled frat boy
00:21:48dare to cross the Overseer?
00:21:49They just sign their own death warrants.
00:21:52Put your foot through the floorboard.
00:21:54Ten minutes to the ceremony.
00:21:56Are you done with your delusions?
00:21:58You think faking a phone call to the Secretary of Defense
00:22:01is going to make anyone respect you?
00:22:03It's low, Daniel.
00:22:04Even for you.
00:22:06Don't let him get to you, Vanessa.
00:22:08I'm the Overseer's right-hand man.
00:22:09He's just playing the clown to entertain me.
00:22:11Right-hand?
00:22:12Frat boy, you better drop to your knees
00:22:14and apologize right now.
00:22:16Do it to save your grandfather
00:22:19and to keep your actual right-hand.
00:22:21Wait, wait.
00:22:22Did I hear that right?
00:22:23A broke freeloader is threatening me and my grandfather?
00:22:26Yeah.
00:22:27You heard me.
00:22:30My grandfather commands U.S. Stratcom,
00:22:32and I'm the Overseer's right-hand man.
00:22:35Please, enlighten me, Deadbeat.
00:22:37How the hell are you going to wipe us out?
00:22:39Because I'm the man you've all been praying to.
00:22:45I am the Overseer!
00:22:51What?
00:22:52You're the Overseer?
00:22:53The only thing you can oversee is your own ass, buddy.
00:22:58You just dug your own grave, you piece of shit.
00:23:01You've been a dead man walking ever since you insulted us,
00:23:04but that's nothing next to what the Overseer's going to do to you for impersonating him.
00:23:08You'll wish you were dead.
00:23:10Really?
00:23:11Enlighten me.
00:23:12How's that going to happen?
00:23:13Stop running your mouth, Daniel.
00:23:16Keep bullshitting,
00:23:17and the Overseer's going to come after you
00:23:19and everyone tied to you.
00:23:20I won't let you drag me down with you.
00:23:24And that's what you're really afraid of, isn't it?
00:23:26Nothing's more important to you than your own glory.
00:23:29Not your best friend,
00:23:30not your fellow soldiers,
00:23:31not even the man who actually loved you.
00:23:33Exactly.
00:23:34I know you're too stupid to understand,
00:23:36but drop the pathetic act.
00:23:38Real power like us isn't buying it.
00:23:40General Blake,
00:23:42hand this delusional looser over to us.
00:23:44I'll show him what happens to up-reed little shits
00:23:47who offend the old guard.
00:23:49The old guard?
00:23:50What, do you think you're a Rockefeller or something?
00:23:53If anyone here is part of the old guard,
00:23:55it's Claire's grandfather.
00:23:56He was a decorated four-star general.
00:23:58I personally gave him the Medal of Honor.
00:24:01So that's why you've been acting so uppity.
00:24:03You're riding on the Monroe family's coat tape.
00:24:06Too bad the Monroe family ain't worth shit anymore.
00:24:09Daniel, let me do you a favor and give you a reality check.
00:24:11No one can save you.
00:24:12Everyone.
00:24:13Ever since General Monroe died,
00:24:15the Monroe name has been dead.
00:24:16And to make things worse,
00:24:18Claire got herself busted down to a grunt.
00:24:20This family doesn't even deserve to breathe our air.
00:24:24I propose we dishonorably discharge
00:24:27every single Monroe from the U.S. military.
00:24:31Good idea.
00:24:32The Monroes have been coasting
00:24:33on their grandfather's reputation for way too long.
00:24:36Fine by me.
00:24:36The highest ranking Monroe right now is a private.
00:24:39What a joke.
00:24:40Speaking for my grandfather,
00:24:42the commander of U.S. Stratcom,
00:24:43I second that motion.
00:24:46Agreed!
00:24:47Throw them out!
00:24:48Strip their ranks!
00:24:50This is insane!
00:24:51None of you have the authority to make that call!
00:24:53Vanessa,
00:24:54are you really going to ruin the Monroe family over this?
00:24:57Your precious daughter brought this on herself.
00:25:00She just had to protect this piece of trash and cross me.
00:25:03See?
00:25:03Just like that,
00:25:05the Monroes are crumbling.
00:25:06Who's left in your corner now?
00:25:08Vanessa,
00:25:09this is funny.
00:25:09The Overseer personally honored the late General Monroe.
00:25:12Second-rate brass like you don't get to touch his family.
00:25:14Vanessa,
00:25:14I mean,
00:25:15General Blake,
00:25:16please,
00:25:17for the Overseer's sake,
00:25:18spare us.
00:25:18We'll cut all ties with Daniel.
00:25:20Just don't drag our family down with him.
00:25:22Mom,
00:25:22no!
00:25:23They'll kill him if we walk away!
00:25:25Wake up,
00:25:26Claire!
00:25:26Do you want this whole family destroyed?
00:25:28Cut that loser loose right now!
00:25:31Daniel,
00:25:32what do I do?
00:25:33Claire,
00:25:34he's a nobody with a big mouth.
00:25:36I really don't know what you see in this waste of space.
00:25:39Vanessa,
00:25:39wait.
00:25:40The Overseer's going to get here soon.
00:25:42For whatever reason,
00:25:43it looks like he actually has a soft spot for the Monroe's.
00:25:45You shouldn't piss him off.
00:25:48I have a better idea.
00:25:50Be useful once,
00:25:51loser.
00:25:52Kill yourself.
00:25:55Well,
00:25:56Deadbeat,
00:25:56since Tristan's sticking up for you,
00:25:58we'll settle for watching you kill yourself.
00:26:00Get on your knees and thank him,
00:26:02because we were going to torture you slow
00:26:04and make you wish you were dead.
00:26:06Tristan,
00:26:06you really are a special kind of stupid.
00:26:08Take this as a warning.
00:26:10Lay one finger on me,
00:26:11and your grandfather will kill you himself
00:26:13just for a shot at my forgiveness.
00:26:14And the Secretary of Defense,
00:26:16Thomas Caldwell,
00:26:17will bury your whole family along with you.
00:26:21In fact,
00:26:22they'll both be here in five minutes.
00:26:23Touch me before then,
00:26:25if you have the balls.
00:26:26Drive faster.
00:26:27If the Overseer gets pissed,
00:26:29the Vaughn family is dead.
00:26:31I can't tell if you're delusional or just pathetic.
00:26:34You really think you're the Overseer, don't you?
00:26:36You know, Daniel,
00:26:37for a second there,
00:26:38I thought about letting you live.
00:26:40But now,
00:26:41I actually think it could be a mercy
00:26:43to let you kill yourself.
00:26:44Do it before Commander Vaughn
00:26:46and Secretary Caldwell do it for you.
00:26:48You're the one who's delusional, Vanessa.
00:26:51The men whose boots you lick
00:26:52are small feish compared to me.
00:26:54What the hell are you doing?
00:26:56That's the Overseer's throne.
00:26:58You don't even have the right to breathe near it.
00:27:00You're about to find out.
00:27:02Now,
00:27:03I'm giving you one last chance
00:27:05before the truth kills you.
00:27:07Drop to your knees,
00:27:08beg for my forgiveness,
00:27:09and I might just let you live.
00:27:14Who the hell do you think you are?
00:27:16Get your ass out of that chair.
00:27:18That's the Overseer's throne.
00:27:19Your sorry ass doesn't deserve to sit there.
00:27:21You're dead meat.
00:27:22A room full of blind sheep.
00:27:24What makes you so sure I'm not the Overseer?
00:27:27This is ridiculous.
00:27:29MPs, get in here.
00:27:30Just kill him, Vanessa.
00:27:32Don't worry, Claire.
00:27:34I can get my sister to go easy on your family.
00:27:36All you have to do is cut Daniel loose
00:27:38and be my side piece.
00:27:39In your dreams, you lunatic.
00:27:42Get off me.
00:27:42That was your easy way out, bitch.
00:27:45Claire, enough.
00:27:46This deadbeat is hell-bent on suicide.
00:27:48You defend him one more time
00:27:49and I'll disown you.
00:27:50Don't worry, Claire.
00:27:51I've got you.
00:27:54You all really want me dead, huh?
00:27:56Two minutes to go.
00:28:04Two minutes?
00:28:05We won't even need one
00:28:07to end your miserable life.
00:28:08Everyone!
00:28:09This piece of shit has insulted the Overseer.
00:28:12As his right-hand man,
00:28:14I'm ordering you all to kill him.
00:28:17With pleasure, sir.
00:28:19You have my word as a Major General.
00:28:21Same for me.
00:28:22That guy's way out of line.
00:28:24He needs to die.
00:28:24Somebody put him down already.
00:28:26Put a bullet in him.
00:28:27You worthless parasite.
00:28:29You just had to force our hands, didn't you?
00:28:31Well, if we all agree by my authority as a four-star general,
00:28:34Daniel Cross, I sentence you to death.
00:28:37Vanessa, please.
00:28:38We used to be best friends.
00:28:40Just let him go.
00:28:41How many times do I have to repeat myself, Private?
00:28:43I'm a four-star general.
00:28:45You've got no right to tell me what I can or can't do.
00:28:50Back the fuck off, bitch!
00:28:52You just bought yourself a body bag, Emily.
00:28:56You have no one to blame but yourself, you stuck-up stupid loser.
00:28:59And peace!
00:29:00Pin him down and beat him to death!
00:29:02You have one minute left to save your own lives.
00:29:06Apologize.
00:29:07Now.
00:29:10Stand down!
00:29:11What the hell are you idiots doing?
00:29:20Ha!
00:29:21Secretary Caldwell's here.
00:29:22Not even God can save you now.
00:29:25What the hell is going on here?
00:29:28Nothing for you to worry about, Mr. Secretary.
00:29:30Just a rabid watchdog that needs putting down.
00:29:33A watchdog?
00:29:35That's right, sir.
00:29:37We're taking out the trash right now.
00:29:40I gave you one job.
00:29:41Host a ceremony for the Overseer,
00:29:43and you turned it into a circus?
00:29:45Fucking geniuses!
00:29:47Damn, why is he so pissed?
00:29:51Tristan Vaughn, sir.
00:29:52I'm the Overseer's right-hand man.
00:29:54Looking forward to working with you.
00:29:55Really?
00:29:56How come no one told me about this?
00:29:59My apologies, sir.
00:30:01I should have waited until it was made official.
00:30:03But this piece of trash insulted the Overseer.
00:30:06I had to step in and defend the Overseer's name.
00:30:08What piece of drush?
00:30:10Him!
00:30:11This lunatic's been running around tending to be the Overseer.
00:30:13We were just about to have him executed.
00:30:15It's true, Secretary Caldwell.
00:30:17He needs to pay for what he's done.
00:30:18And for the record, sir,
00:30:20he used to be my son-in-law,
00:30:22but we kicked him out today.
00:30:24The Blake family has absolutely nothing to do with him.
00:30:27So please,
00:30:28don't hold back on our account.
00:30:30It's a tragedy, Daniel.
00:30:32You used to be my husband,
00:30:33but now,
00:30:34there's nothing I can do to save you.
00:30:36Is it that you can't save me,
00:30:38or you don't want to?
00:30:40You son of a-
00:30:41Sir!
00:30:42You see why we can't let this egomaniac get away with it?
00:30:46I'll deal with him.
00:30:47I'll make sure he rots in a dumpster where he belongs!
00:30:51Shut your mouth!
00:30:53Who the hell do you think you're talking about?
00:30:56Tell me, Thomas.
00:30:58How should you clean up this mess?
00:31:00What?
00:31:01Is he really the-
00:31:02No!
00:31:03No, that's impossible!
00:31:05We are at your command,
00:31:07Overseer.
00:31:11What the hell?
00:31:13The O-O...
00:31:14The Overseer?
00:31:16He's the Overseer?
00:31:17No!
00:31:18No, this can't be happening!
00:31:21I can't believe it.
00:31:22I won't.
00:31:23Daniel has done nothing but leech off us for years.
00:31:26How the hell is he the Overseer?
00:31:28Is this a sick joke?
00:31:29The man I treated like dirt?
00:31:32Is the puppet master of the Deep State?
00:31:35The man holding the leashes to the Pentagon, Langley, and Capitol Hill?
00:31:39The man who can make or break the president with a single phone call?
00:31:43The Overseer I've been worshipping?
00:31:46No!
00:31:47It's impossible!
00:31:47As Secretary of Defense, I offer my formal apologies for the late arrival.
00:31:52At ease.
00:31:53Actually, you got here just in time.
00:31:55If you'd come any earlier, I wouldn't have gotten to watch these big shots punch down.
00:32:00Let me handle this, sir.
00:32:02I swear it on my office.
00:32:06You blind, arrogant fools!
00:32:09How dare you cross the Overseer?
00:32:14Uh, Secretary Colville.
00:32:16Sir, we didn't recognize him.
00:32:18That's our bad.
00:32:19This is all just a big misunderstanding.
00:32:20Is a misunderstanding?
00:32:22You're telling me calling the Overseer a piece of trash is a misunderstanding?
00:32:26It's not our fault, sir.
00:32:28Soldiers of our rank never get to see the Overseer.
00:32:31We didn't know.
00:32:32It was Tristan.
00:32:33He started this.
00:32:34He's right.
00:32:35Sir, we meant no offense.
00:32:37We'll accept whatever penalty you decide on.
00:32:40Deploy us to the front lines.
00:32:41Send us to the Middle East, even.
00:32:43Yes, sir.
00:32:44Just name our punishment, and let's put this behind us.
00:32:47This is all Tristan Voss's fault.
00:32:50He manipulated us into doubting my wonderful son-in-law.
00:32:53Sir, I've always gotten along with Daniel.
00:32:56He's my brother-in-law.
00:32:58Tristan brainwashed us into turning against him.
00:33:01If the Overseer still wants to punish us, we'll take it.
00:33:04We were wrong.
00:33:05We'll accept whatever penalty you want.
00:33:09This is insane.
00:33:11There's no way a deadbeat like Daniel is the Overseer.
00:33:14Sir, why the hell is everyone buying this?
00:33:18So this whole affair was just a big misunderstanding, right?
00:33:23Then I guess I have to accept your apologies.
00:33:26But actions have consequences.
00:33:29You are all officially dismissed from the service.
00:33:32Effective immediately.
00:33:34Dismissed?
00:33:36Are you serious?
00:33:37Are you deaf?
00:33:38But, sir, this violates every protocol in the book!
00:33:42I'm the Overseer.
00:33:43I make the rules.
00:33:45And my word is protocol.
00:33:47Think about this for a second, sir.
00:33:49Robert and I have spent decades building these commands.
00:33:52Dismissing us would be a massive blow to the entire U.S. military.
00:33:57Exactly!
00:33:58Without commanders, our troops trust.
00:34:00How are they supposed to win the war on terror?
00:34:03You'd be putting American national security at risk!
00:34:07Daniel, even if you really are the Overseer,
00:34:10you can't just dismiss two major generals on a whim.
00:34:13Is this a threat?
00:34:15Take it however you want.
00:34:17How dare you question a direct order from the Overseer?
00:34:21Do you want to be court-martialed?
00:34:23Let's not overreact, Mr. Secretary.
00:34:25We're just pointing out a simple fact.
00:34:28Dismissing us would seriously threaten the Overseer's grip on the military.
00:34:32Exactly.
00:34:33We've served this country for years.
00:34:35We have friends in high places.
00:34:38You can't touch us.
00:34:41Whoa, what a show!
00:34:43You think just because I've been gone for three years,
00:34:46a couple of pathetic clowns can threaten my grip on this country?
00:34:49Thomas!
00:34:50Five minutes.
00:34:51Process their dismissal.
00:34:53Strip their stars.
00:34:59Ha, the gig is up.
00:35:01You're no Overseer, you pathetic fraud.
00:35:04The real Overseer would know it takes time to process dismissals for generals of our rank.
00:35:09A hell of a lot more than five minutes.
00:35:12Exactly!
00:35:13Wake up, Mr. Secretary!
00:35:14Don't let this clown play you for a fool!
00:35:18Now it makes sense.
00:35:19He's been mooching off my family for three years.
00:35:22There's no way in hell he has that kind of power.
00:35:25We should have killed you earlier, you lying piece of shit!
00:35:30Wow.
00:35:31I gotta admit, that was a hell of a performance.
00:35:34Too bad they don't give Oscars to deadbeats.
00:35:36Sir, you're making a massive mistake.
00:35:39I'm Daniel's ex-wife.
00:35:41I know exactly what he is.
00:35:42A spinless bottom feeder.
00:35:44There's no way he could ever be the Overseer!
00:35:47The Overseer's gifts have arrived!
00:36:00The Overseer has prepared these three gifts for our first female four-star general.
00:36:06First, the Medal of Honor.
00:36:07The highest honor a soldier can receive.
00:36:09Second, an authentication card carrying the nuclear launch codes.
00:36:13And third, a copy of the Overseer's black book.
00:36:17The nuclear launch codes?
00:36:19That's insane!
00:36:20Only the President and the Overseer are supposed to have those.
00:36:24You're freaked out about the launch codes?
00:36:26What about the black book?
00:36:28That's where the Overseer records all the dirt and leverage he has on politicians in D.C.
00:36:33Jesus.
00:36:35Any one of these would send shockwaves through Washington.
00:36:39Put all three together, and you could hold the whole world in your hands.
00:36:44Claire, I had these prepared for you.
00:36:46Do you like them?
00:36:48Those are for me?
00:36:51I told you, didn't I?
00:36:53You're the star of the show tonight.
00:36:55That means you also deserve all the glory and all the gifts.
00:37:01Get your filthy hands off that!
00:37:04The Overseer sent this for the first female four-star general.
00:37:07That would be me.
00:37:08You're just a lowly private.
00:37:10The only time you'll ever touch this medal is when I order you to polish it.
00:37:14Stand down, Vanessa Blake.
00:37:16The Overseer just made it crystal clear.
00:37:18That medal is for Mrs. Monroe.
00:37:21No, you're the one with no right to touch it!
00:37:24Do you think I'm an idiot?
00:37:25That loser isn't the Overseer.
00:37:27If he were, he would have been parading these gifts around the second he walked in,
00:37:32like some pathetic mutt showing off a stolen bone.
00:37:36You're the Secretary of Defense, Caldwell.
00:37:38Why the hell are you playing along with this deadbeat charade?
00:37:45Oh, I get it.
00:37:46No wonder there are rumors that Secretary Caldwell pays special attention to Claire Monroe.
00:37:51They're sleeping together.
00:37:53This whole circus is a setup.
00:37:55I bet he paid that loser Daniel to help him steal General Blake's honors for his side piece.
00:38:01You bitch.
00:38:02Playing hard to get with me.
00:38:04But you've been Caldwell's little sex toy this whole time?
00:38:08Hey, you should have told me earlier you had a daddy king.
00:38:11I can role play.
00:38:13I'm telling my grandfather all about this little stunt right now.
00:38:16When he gets here, he's going to bury every single one of you.
00:38:19I can't believe I almost bought it.
00:38:21Daniel Cross, the puppet master of the deep state?
00:38:24What a joke.
00:38:26Too bad a peasant playing dress-up is still just a peasant.
00:38:29But I never thought you'd sink this low, Daniel.
00:38:33Pimping out your own girlfriend to an old man just to put on a show to impress me?
00:38:38Your vanity makes me sick.
00:38:40You people have wild imaginations, but I'm done playing this boring game.
00:38:44Five minutes is up.
00:38:48Major General Hayes, by order of the overseer, you are dismissed from the service and effective immediately.
00:38:53Major General Prescott, your Pentagon clearance is hereby revoked.
00:38:55Vacate the premises immediately.
00:38:56What?
00:38:57How is that even possible?
00:39:01What?
00:39:02Are you actually the overseer?
00:39:05Let's make it official.
00:39:07Colonel Vanessa Blake, your blatant insubordination and arrogance make you a disgrace to the uniform.
00:39:13You are busted down to private and on door duty.
00:39:15A literal watchdog.
00:39:19Colonel Claire Monroe, for your unmatched leadership and for decimating terror networks in the Middle East,
00:39:24you are hereby promoted to four-star general and appointed to command CENTCOM.
00:39:27What?
00:39:28Me?
00:39:29A four-star general?
00:39:30Command of CENTCOM.
00:39:32No, this isn't real.
00:39:34This can't be happening.
00:39:36I told you you'd choke on the truth, Vanessa.
00:39:39Do you regret it now?
00:39:43I...
00:39:44I told you you're arrogant and blind.
00:39:47I told you biting the hand that fed you would come back to choke you.
00:39:51I told you no one here, no one here's above me.
00:39:54And I told you, everything with your name on it goes to Claire.
00:39:58You didn't listen.
00:39:58But now, are you finally willing to wake up?
00:40:02We were married for three years.
00:40:04All this time, and you hid your true identity from me?
00:40:07That's right.
00:40:08But why?
00:40:09You should have just been honest with me.
00:40:11Then I would have never divorced you.
00:40:13And none of this would have had to happen.
00:40:16Because you never believed in me.
00:40:17Not once.
00:40:19But I don't need that anymore.
00:40:21I should thank you.
00:40:23You showed me your true colors, greedy and selfish.
00:40:26And you led me straight to the woman I was meant to be with.
00:40:33Don't try to wiggle your way out of this, Daniel.
00:40:36Miss Blake would have never had to risk her life in active combat
00:40:39if you just told her who you really were.
00:40:41This is all your fault.
00:40:44I bet you've been secretly banging this little bitch for years.
00:40:47That's why you had to keep so many secrets.
00:40:51You really don't know when to shut your mouth, do you, lapdog?
00:40:55Daniel, whether you cheated on me or not, I'm willing to let it go.
00:40:58But I bled for this country for three years.
00:41:01And you're just going to hand my rewards to Claire?
00:41:03That's not fair.
00:41:05That's right.
00:41:06Miss Blake risked her life for this country.
00:41:09You can't just take away what she earned.
00:41:13Vanessa Blake, do you seriously think you were competent enough to do all that on your own?
00:41:17You're delusional.
00:41:19What the hell is that supposed to mean?
00:41:20If the overseer had an order to secretly pull strings for you,
00:41:23your incompetency would have gotten you killed a thousand times over on the battlefield.
00:41:27And you actually thought you earned a fourth czar?
00:41:29You don't even deserve the uniform!
00:41:31When we got married, your only goal was to be named a general.
00:41:33I wanted to give you that, but I didn't want you to feel pressured,
00:41:36so I stayed by your side as just an ordinary man.
00:41:39Too bad.
00:41:41Three years' marriage, it meant nothing to you.
00:41:45Thank God I saw the truth in time.
00:41:47And I finally found my true love.
00:41:50Claire.
00:41:54I didn't mean it when I said we should divorce.
00:41:56I just...
00:41:56Whatever helps you sleep at night, Vanessa.
00:41:59You mean nothing to me anymore.
00:42:00The only thing that matters to me now is Claire.
00:42:08Thomas, you actually have the balls to prop up some two-bit actor to impersonate the overseer?
00:42:14You're a dead man walking, and I'll be the next secretary of defense.
00:42:21God damn it.
00:42:22The last poor bastard who mouthed off at the overseer got black-bagged in his sleep.
00:42:27Woke up in a DOD-f black sight, and never woke up the next day.
00:42:31I screwed up, sir.
00:42:33I stepped way out of line, court-martialed me, throw me in leaven hell for the rest of my life.
00:42:38Just, please, don't put me in the ground.
00:42:41Same here, sir.
00:42:42Just don't kill me.
00:42:43Please.
00:42:45Me too, sir.
00:42:46I'm begging you.
00:42:47Just, please, leave my grandfather out of this.
00:42:51I'll plead guilty, sir.
00:42:53Go easy on us.
00:42:54Please, overseer.
00:42:55Please, overseer.
00:42:55Don't kill us.
00:42:57You're really doing this to me, Daniel?
00:42:59Three years of marriage, and I still...
00:43:01Thomas, clean up the room.
00:43:03Anyone who actually earned their keep, they walk.
00:43:05The rest, you know what to do.
00:43:06Yes, sir.
00:43:07And set up a real ceremony for Claire.
00:43:09Bigger, brighter.
00:43:10Every camera in DC rolling.
00:43:11I'm pinning those four stars on her myself.
00:43:13Copy that, sir.
00:43:14Oh, my God.
00:43:16My daughter's marrying the overseer?
00:43:19Somebody pinched me hard.
00:43:20I swear this has to be a dream.
00:43:25Thomas!
00:43:25Caldwell!
00:43:26You had the balls to prop up some two-bit actor to impersonate the overseer.
00:43:31You got a death wish?
00:43:33Wait.
00:43:35Impersonate the overseer?
00:43:36So this guy's a fraud?
00:43:39Thank God!
00:43:40He's a goddamn fraud!
00:43:41Called it.
00:43:42Daniel's a nobody.
00:43:43Always has been.
00:43:44No shot he's anyone who matters.
00:43:46Damn right.
00:43:47My grandfather's actually shaken the overseer's hand.
00:43:49He knows the real deal from a clown.
00:43:51Daniel, you spineless piece of shit.
00:43:53Grow a pair and own it.
00:43:55Stop hiding behind a pile of lies.
00:43:58You, Thomas Caldwell, you think you're the only man in this room who's seen the overseer's face?
00:44:03We all heard him say he'd promote Vanessa Blake.
00:44:05And you?
00:44:06You rewrote his orders.
00:44:07You planted a goddamn imposter on his throne.
00:44:10You're a dead man, Caldwell.
00:44:12Watch your mouth, Marcus.
00:44:14Do you have any idea who you're talking about?
00:44:17Ladies and gentlemen, Secretary Caldwell here, drunk on the overseer's favor, forged his orders, and stuck this clown on the
00:44:24throne to play overseer.
00:44:26I'll personally brief the overseer on every word of this circus.
00:44:29Caldwell, start packing your desk.
00:44:31You're done.
00:44:31And as commander of U.S. Stratcom, I am officially cancelling tonight's promotion ceremony.
00:44:37We redo it in three days.
00:44:39Bigger, grander, and done right.
00:44:44Sir, does this mean I'll still be promoted to four-star general?
00:44:51See that, Daniel?
00:44:53Dress it up all you want.
00:44:54You're not the overseer.
00:44:55You're just a desperate loser.
00:44:57Always have been.
00:44:58Now on your knees, beg.
00:44:59And maybe, just maybe, I let you walk out here alive.
00:45:03And if I don't?
00:45:06Daniel, three years of marriage?
00:45:08I'm not gonna be the cold bitch who kills her ex on her promotion night, so I'm letting you live.
00:45:13But you still get on your knees, and you still apologize.
00:45:16Vanessa just saved your miserable life, loser.
00:45:20Now drop to your knees and kiss her boots.
00:45:23Me? On my knees?
00:45:24For her, you've got it backwards.
00:45:26Trust me, she'll be the one on her knees, begging me.
00:45:29Emily, stand down.
00:45:31Don't pick a fight with Caldwell over a nobody.
00:45:33Right now, the priority is winning over the overseer.
00:45:36What do I get a man like that?
00:45:37Tell me.
00:45:38Ma'am, the overseer owns the world.
00:45:40He's got everything a man could want, everything, except you.
00:45:44Meaning what, exactly?
00:45:46Wear your sexiest lingerie under that gown, ma'am.
00:45:48Trust me, that's a gift no man walks away from.
00:45:52So that's your big play, Vanessa?
00:45:54Put on some lace and seduce the overseer?
00:45:57I can't wait to watch your face the second you realize the overseer is me.
00:46:04As for the rest of you, we'll finish this in three days.
00:46:09Sir, I don't get it.
00:46:10Why let Marcus push the ceremony back?
00:46:13A praise death throes, that's the most beautiful sight in the world.
00:46:17Three days from now,
00:46:20That spectacle's well worth the wait.
00:46:36Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:37Where you going with that?
00:46:38Let's see what's in the bag.
00:46:41You broke-ass leech.
00:46:44Divorced, homeless, and still trying to rip off the Blakes on your way out the door?
00:46:48You know what?
00:46:49It's my stuff.
00:46:50Personal.
00:46:51Vanessa and I are done.
00:46:53I'm packing up and walking out.
00:46:54You got a problem with that?
00:46:56Sure, buddy.
00:46:56That's a cute story.
00:47:01I bet every damn thing in here was swiped from this house.
00:47:05Hand it over.
00:47:08Count yourself lucky I'm letting you leave at all, Daniel.
00:47:12Now grab your trash and get the fuck out of our house.
00:47:16That's my mother in that photo, you piece of shit.
00:47:18You really think I'm letting that go?
00:47:21No.
00:47:30How dare you, Daniel?
00:47:32You put your hands on my mother and my brother.
00:47:35In my house?
00:47:36Guess I was too damn soft on you all these years.
00:47:38Three years, Vanessa.
00:47:40Not once.
00:47:41You've never not fucking once asked me my side before you hit me.
00:47:46Because you're a stray I pulled off the street.
00:47:50And they're my family.
00:47:54That clear enough for you?
00:47:57Word is the Overseer crawled back out of the shadows in D.C.
00:48:01I want him on a leash.
00:48:03Working for us.
00:48:04Once the Overseer answers to the Cross family,
00:48:07every string in America runs through this room.
00:48:10Mr. Cross, with respect, that's a tall order.
00:48:12The Overseer doesn't answer to anyone.
00:48:14He can make or break a government with one phone call.
00:48:17Sir, if you want this done right,
00:48:19you'll have to sit across from him yourself.
00:48:21Mind your tone, soldier.
00:48:23In front of a Cross,
00:48:24it doesn't matter how big the Overseer thinks he is.
00:48:27No one outranks this family.
00:48:30I know the Overseer's a heavyweight, David.
00:48:32I'm not a fool.
00:48:33But before you open your mouth again,
00:48:36think hard.
00:48:37The Cross family put you where you are,
00:48:39and we can bury you just as fast.
00:48:41You know exactly what we're capable of.
00:48:45Understood, sir.
00:48:46Loud and clear.
00:48:47Also, sir, according to my intel,
00:48:49in three days,
00:48:49the Overseer is holding a special promotion ceremony
00:48:53for Vanessa Blake.
00:48:54He's making her a four-star general.
00:48:56Sir, this is the woman.
00:48:57And there's something else in her file.
00:48:59She's the ex-wife of your older brother, Daniel.
00:49:03He married her three years back,
00:49:05right after he lost the cross-inheritance fight.
00:49:08A female general, huh?
00:49:10Now that's interesting.
00:49:11I've had a president's daughter.
00:49:12I've had a princess.
00:49:14But a woman with four stars on her collar?
00:49:16Bet she's got some spice to her.
00:49:18Get our GRU asset, Ivan Volklav, on the line.
00:49:22Remind him who pulled him out of that Saudi meat manor
00:49:24when the twin stars lit up his whole cell.
00:49:26And tell him to snatch my big brother's ex-wife,
00:49:29four-star bitch,
00:49:30and deliver it to my door.
00:49:32Gift-wrapped.
00:49:36You want to know something, Vanessa?
00:49:39Even after you threw those divorce papers in my face,
00:49:41I was still willing to give you one last shot.
00:49:43Prove to me you had what it took to wear that uniform,
00:49:46and I would have pinned those stars on you myself
00:49:48if you just burned the last bridge between us.
00:49:51Ugh, get off your high horse.
00:49:54What's the point now?
00:49:55Everyone knows you're a pathetic, useless nobody.
00:49:59Yeah, a loser's a loser,
00:50:01no matter how loud he barks.
00:50:03Here, Vanessa.
00:50:04It's official.
00:50:05Your promotion ceremony.
00:50:07Two days out.
00:50:09Wait, so it's done?
00:50:11Vanessa's promotion actually went through?
00:50:13Tristan got intel on my promotion
00:50:15before I did,
00:50:16so he really is the overseer's right-hand man after all.
00:50:20A ceremony for Vanessa?
00:50:22How come I didn't know about this?
00:50:24Why the hell would anyone tell you, loser?
00:50:28Oh, and here's the kicker.
00:50:30At the ceremony,
00:50:31my grandfather's gonna have the overseer
00:50:33make me secretary of state.
00:50:35Right-hand man.
00:50:36Top cabinet member.
00:50:38Same pay grade as Caldwell.
00:50:39Well, so yeah, Daniel.
00:50:41Know your place.
00:50:43Right-hand man?
00:50:45Since when?
00:50:46We both know that's a flat-out lie.
00:50:49How the hell does he know
00:50:50I haven't been officially promoted yet?
00:50:52Enough, Daniel!
00:50:54Don't mistake our patients
00:50:56for permission to run your mouth.
00:50:57You're disrespecting the overseer's
00:51:00right-hand man
00:51:01and the next secretary of state.
00:51:04You wanna die today?
00:51:05Keep going!
00:51:07Him?
00:51:08The overseer's right hand?
00:51:10The overseer wouldn't let a clown like him
00:51:12shine his shoes.
00:51:17I told you to shut your goddamn mouth.
00:51:23Two days, Vanessa.
00:51:24Then you're gonna pay
00:51:25for every single one of those slaps.
00:51:31What's this?
00:51:32You're losing your shit
00:51:33because the money train's over, right?
00:51:35Take the card.
00:51:36Get the hell out of my life.
00:51:38And don't ever show your face here again.
00:51:42You still don't get it, do you?
00:51:44I never wanted your money, Vanessa.
00:51:46Not today.
00:51:47Not three years ago.
00:51:48Not once.
00:51:50I know.
00:51:57Vanessa Blake.
00:51:58You burned my operation
00:51:59in the Middle East.
00:52:00You turned me into a joke
00:52:01in front of the Kremlin.
00:52:02Now I return the favor.
00:52:05Going somewhere, comrade?
00:52:19Don't move!
00:52:26What the fuck?
00:52:27Get your goddamn hands off her.
00:52:32What happened?
00:52:38Vanessa, hey, look at me.
00:52:39You okay?
00:52:41I thought I heard Ivan Volkov.
00:52:44The Russian.
00:52:45Where is he?
00:52:47Holy shit.
00:52:48Good thing I showed up when I did.
00:52:50That Russian prick
00:52:51must have made me
00:52:52for the Overseer's right hand.
00:52:53He ran like a bitch.
00:52:56Volkov knocked you out.
00:52:57I arrived just in time
00:52:58to scare him off
00:52:59and save you.
00:53:01And while I was chasing him down,
00:53:03this creep got his filthy paws
00:53:05all over you.
00:53:06I used to think,
00:53:07whatever else you were,
00:53:09at least you had some decency.
00:53:11But this?
00:53:12You're a filthy animal, Daniel.
00:53:16Divorcing you
00:53:17was the smartest thing
00:53:18I ever did.
00:53:19Would you believe me
00:53:20if I said
00:53:20I was the one
00:53:22who saved your life?
00:53:24Give it up, creep!
00:53:25The axe dead!
00:53:27Security!
00:53:28Get in here!
00:53:35You actually think
00:53:36you've got what it takes
00:53:37to lay a hand on me?
00:53:41You're digging your own grames.
00:53:42Every last one of you.
00:53:45Hello?
00:53:46Yeah, yes sir.
00:53:47I'm on my way
00:53:48to the Monroe place right now.
00:53:51Today's your lucky day.
00:53:52I'll deal with you later,
00:53:54you piece of shit.
00:53:54Come on.
00:53:56We're rolling
00:53:56to the Monroe place
00:53:57with General Prescott
00:53:59and General Hayes.
00:54:01Grandpa just gave
00:54:02the green light.
00:54:02We're seizing every asset
00:54:04the Monroes own.
00:54:05Congrats!
00:54:06You're one step closer
00:54:07to four-star general.
00:54:09Sir, please.
00:54:11One more shot.
00:54:13That's all I'm asking.
00:54:17Volkov blew it.
00:54:18But let's not waste
00:54:20a good corpse.
00:54:21Wrap him up
00:54:21is our welcome gift
00:54:23for General Blake.
00:54:24Yes, Mr. Cross.
00:54:26Once I'm done
00:54:27breaking her in,
00:54:29I'll walk into
00:54:30that ceremony
00:54:31and bring the Overseer
00:54:33to heel.
00:54:36You picked a fight
00:54:38with General Blake.
00:54:39With Mr. Vaughn.
00:54:41With the Overseer himself.
00:54:44And for what, Claire?
00:54:46For that deadbeat
00:54:47Daniel Cross?
00:54:49You've dragged
00:54:50the Monroe name
00:54:50through the mud.
00:54:52They're seizing our assets,
00:54:55our homes,
00:54:55our accounts,
00:54:57everything.
00:54:58Please welcome
00:54:59General Prescott,
00:55:00General Hayes,
00:55:02Mr. Tristan Vaughn,
00:55:03and General Vanessa Blake.

00:55:10Please,
00:55:10make yourselves comfortable.
00:55:12You know exactly
00:55:13why we're here.
00:55:14Let's not drag this out.
00:55:15I have a federal warrant
00:55:16right here.
00:55:17The Monroe family
00:55:17stands charged
00:55:18with money laundering
00:55:19and wire fraud.
00:55:19Every asset in this house
00:55:20and every account
00:55:21under the Monroe name
00:55:22is seized,
00:55:23effective immediately.
00:55:25Vanessa,
00:55:26please,
00:55:27it doesn't have to end
00:55:28like this.
00:55:28Don't do this to my family.
00:55:30It's all over.
00:55:31We're done.
00:55:32Well,
00:55:33well,
00:55:33well.
00:55:34Who the hell
00:55:35gave a pack
00:55:35of pencil pushers
00:55:36the balls
00:55:36to come after
00:55:37the Monroes?
00:55:44Well,
00:55:45look who crawled
00:55:46back for round two.
00:55:47Daniel,
00:55:48buddy,
00:55:48I cut you loose
00:55:49once today
00:55:50and you walked
00:55:51your dumb ass
00:55:52right back
00:55:52into the fire?
00:55:53A two-bit con man
00:55:55impersonating the overseer
00:55:56and you've got the balls
00:55:58to show your face here?
00:56:00On your knees,
00:56:01right now
00:56:02or I put you there myself.
00:56:04You're on a sinking ship,
00:56:06Daniel.
00:56:07Don't drag us down
00:56:07with you.
00:56:08Don't worry,
00:56:09Mrs. Monroe.
00:56:10I'm here now.
00:56:12Nobody,
00:56:12and I mean nobody,
00:56:14is laying a hand
00:56:15on the Monroes.
00:56:22So Vanessa Blake
00:56:23is really in there?
00:56:24Yes,
00:56:24Mr. Cross.
00:56:25And your brother's
00:56:26new girlfriend,
00:56:27Claire Monroe,
00:56:28she's in there too.
00:56:32Delicious.
00:56:33Daniel's ex-wife
00:56:34and his new lover,
00:56:35I'll take them both.
00:56:38And how exactly
00:56:39are you planning
00:56:40to protect the Monroes,
00:56:41Daniel?
00:56:42We've got the full weight
00:56:43of the U.S. military
00:56:44behind us.
00:56:45You,
00:56:46you've got nothing.
00:56:47You are nothing.
00:56:49Buddy,
00:56:49I think you took
00:56:50the overseer cosplay
00:56:51a little too seriously.
00:56:53You keep poking the bear,
00:56:55loser.
00:56:55Now I'm putting you
00:56:57down myself.
00:56:58Looks like I went
00:56:59too easy on you two
00:57:00last time.
00:57:01So here's round two.
00:57:03I'll submit evidence
00:57:04of your crimes
00:57:04to the courts.
00:57:05Then your families
00:57:06will have their assets
00:57:07seized.
00:57:09Drop the act,
00:57:10you worthless
00:57:11piece of shit.
00:57:13You really think
00:57:13you've got the juice
00:57:14to take down
00:57:15the Hayes
00:57:15and Prescott families?
00:57:17My big brother
00:57:17wants to wipe out
00:57:19two little no-name families?
00:57:20I don't see a problem
00:57:21with that.
00:57:30Nobody's talked
00:57:31to me like that
00:57:31since West Point.
00:57:33You got any idea
00:57:33who you're talking to,
00:57:34son?
00:57:35Two-star major generals.
00:57:37Both of us.
00:57:37Who the hell
00:57:38even are you?
00:57:39What gives you the right
00:57:40to open your mouth
00:57:41around our business?
00:57:43How dare you
00:57:43talk to Mr. Cross
00:57:44like that?
00:57:47Vermin like you
00:57:48don't get to
00:57:49address a cross.
00:57:50Know your place,
00:57:51soldier.
00:57:52Holy fuck.
00:57:54I know those two.
00:57:56That one,
00:57:57Charlotte,
00:57:58her father's
00:57:58a former president.
00:58:00And that one,
00:58:01she's British royalty.
00:58:02House of Windsor.
00:58:04Wait,
00:58:04why the hell
00:58:05are women like that
00:58:06shacked up with him?
00:58:07Like,
00:58:08his personal harem?
00:58:10Who the fuck
00:58:11is this guy?
00:58:12I'm Alexander Cross,
00:58:14the patriarch
00:58:14of the Cross family.
00:58:16The revolution
00:58:17got off the ground
00:58:18because my ancestors
00:58:20funded Washington's army.
00:58:22Now are we done
00:58:23with the questions?
00:58:23Jesus Christ,
00:58:25the Crosses?
00:58:25There's supposed
00:58:26to be a goddamn myth.
00:58:27The shadow dynasty
00:58:28that runs this country
00:58:29behind the curtain.
00:58:30Bottomless money,
00:58:31every president
00:58:32on speed file,
00:58:33reaching every capital
00:58:34on earth.
00:58:35Wait, wait,
00:58:36so that loser Daniel's
00:58:37a Cross?
00:58:38Oh,
00:58:39he's definitely
00:58:39not a loser.
00:58:40Daniel lost the fight
00:58:42for the Cross family
00:58:42inheritance,
00:58:43but he still outclassed
00:58:45every last bottom feeder
00:58:46in this room
00:58:47by miles.
00:58:50I never wanted
00:58:51the inheritance,
00:58:52Charlotte.
00:58:53But why not?
00:58:54Nothing can stand up
00:58:55to the Cross family's
00:58:56power and influence.
00:58:58Let me jog your memory
00:58:59and watch this.
00:59:03Seize every asset
00:59:04tied to the Hayes
00:59:05and Prescott families.
00:59:06You have five seconds.
00:59:08Five seconds?
00:59:09Not a chance.
00:59:11Nobody moves that fast,
00:59:12not even the Crosses.
00:59:14Sir,
00:59:15we're getting hit.
00:59:15The FBI just froze
00:59:16every Prescott group
00:59:17account and seized
00:59:18the headquarters.
00:59:19Mr. Hayes,
00:59:20every family account's
00:59:21been frozen.
00:59:21We're locked out
00:59:22of everything.
00:59:24Been a while,
00:59:25big brother.
00:59:26Consider this a little
00:59:27welcome home gift
00:59:28from your kid brother.
00:59:30Hope you like it.
00:59:30Daniel,
00:59:31on your knees.
00:59:32Kiss Mr. Cross's shoes.
00:59:34Show some gratitude
00:59:35for the gift.
00:59:37The Hayes,
00:59:38the Prescots,
00:59:39old money dynasties
00:59:41gone in five seconds
00:59:43flat.
00:59:44So the Crosses
00:59:45are that powerful.
00:59:46Jesus.
00:59:47Three years married
00:59:48to Daniel
00:59:48and he never said
00:59:49a word about his family.
00:59:52Daniel's a cross.
00:59:53Oh my God,
00:59:54the Monroes are saved.
00:59:55We're saved.
00:59:56Daniel,
00:59:57is it true?
00:59:58You're really a cross?
00:59:59That was a lifetime ago.
01:00:01I cut ties
01:00:02with the Crosses
01:00:03a long time back.
01:00:04That family
01:00:05doesn't own a piece of me.
01:00:07Don't worry, Claire.
01:00:08I'll handle them.
01:00:09Been ages,
01:00:10brother dear.
01:00:11And you're still riding
01:00:12that same high horse,
01:00:13aren't you?
01:00:14Relax,
01:00:15I'm not here for you.
01:00:16You're too pathetic now
01:00:17to be worth my time.
01:00:19I came for these
01:00:20two lovelies.
01:00:22Bring the gifts.
01:00:24On behalf of the Cross family,
01:00:26for General Blake,
01:00:27the deed to a Maui
01:00:28Oceanfront Estate,
01:00:30$1 billion in Apple stock,
01:00:32and the head of
01:00:33Ivan Volov,
01:00:34GRU operative.
01:00:35Let's make a trade,
01:00:37sweetheart.
01:00:37Take this dead Russian's head
01:00:39to the Pentagon,
01:00:40turn it in,
01:00:40and that fourth star
01:00:41is yours.
01:00:42Guaranteed.
01:00:44In exchange,
01:00:46you come home
01:00:46with me tonight.
01:00:50Thank you,
01:00:51Mr. Cross,
01:00:51but I don't need
01:00:52any of those things.
01:00:54interesting.
01:00:55You're the first woman
01:00:57who's ever said no to me.
01:00:59Looks like your ex
01:01:01doesn't know
01:01:01what the cross name
01:01:02actually means.
01:01:07Last chance, brother.
01:01:09Tonight,
01:01:10you deliver your ex-wife
01:01:11and your little girlfriend
01:01:12to my suite,
01:01:13so I can have some fun
01:01:14with them.
01:01:16Or else,
01:01:17I'll destroy the Blake
01:01:18and Monroe families,
01:01:20just like I destroyed
01:01:21those two losers.
01:01:25And here's your last chance,
01:01:27brother.
01:01:28Break your own legs
01:01:29and beg for forgiveness.
01:01:30Then the Cross family
01:01:32might make it out of this.
01:01:33Daniel,
01:01:34be careful.
01:01:35Nobody touches the Crosses.
01:01:37Don't worry, Claire.
01:01:38I'm right here.
01:01:39No one's laying a hand on you.
01:01:43Mr. Cross,
01:01:43sir,
01:01:44as the Overseer's
01:01:45right-hand man,
01:01:46I have to ask,
01:01:47please,
01:01:48don't take Vanessa...
01:01:52The Overseer's
01:01:53right-hand man?
01:01:54Kid,
01:01:55you're not fit
01:01:55to lick the shit
01:01:56off my shoe.
01:01:59Remember, brother,
01:02:00your ex
01:02:00and your girl
01:02:01in my bed
01:02:03by midnight.
01:02:05Miss that window
01:02:05and you won't wake up tomorrow
01:02:07to worry about either of them.
01:02:10Did I say you could leave?
01:02:12You've got some nerve.
01:02:14What's the matter, Daniel?
01:02:15That desperate to die?
01:02:20I think you've got
01:02:21the wrong picture,
01:02:22brother dear.
01:02:23My real goal
01:02:24is to turn the Overseer
01:02:25into my pawn.
01:02:28Bagging your ex-wife
01:02:30and your girl
01:02:30is just a bonus.
01:02:32You, though,
01:02:33I don't care about
01:02:34a small-time loser like you.
01:02:36Don't forget, Daniel.
01:02:37The Cross family
01:02:39disowned you.
01:02:40Cut you out of the will
01:02:42like you were trash.
01:02:45You will never be Alexander.
01:02:47Not now.
01:02:48Not ever.
01:02:50Alright.
01:02:52Let's see how that smile
01:02:53holds up
01:02:54once the truth drops.
01:03:00Claire?
01:03:01Did you hear that?
01:03:02Mr. Cross likes you.
01:03:03This is our shot
01:03:04at crawling back to the top.
01:03:07I'm not going to be
01:03:08some sleazy-bag billionaire's
01:03:10kept woman.
01:03:11Don't be so selfish.
01:03:12This entire mess
01:03:13is on you, Claire.
01:03:14You had to go
01:03:15and fall for that
01:03:16deadbeat Daniel
01:03:16and now the whole family
01:03:18is paying for it.
01:03:19You don't want Mr. Cross?
01:03:21Fine.
01:03:21But in two days,
01:03:22you will show up
01:03:23at that ceremony.
01:03:24No excuses.
01:03:25Claire, don't worry.
01:03:27That ceremony
01:03:28was supposed to be for you.
01:03:29You'll be the guest of honor.
01:03:32Daniel,
01:03:32quit the bullshit already.
01:03:34If I were you,
01:03:35I'd be on the first plane
01:03:36out of D.C. right now.
01:03:37Sure.
01:03:38Someone in this world
01:03:39can stand up to Mr. Cross.
01:03:40That someone is the man
01:03:41I worship.
01:03:42The overseer.
01:03:44Real power.
01:03:46Not a loser like you.
01:03:48It's a lesson you'll never
01:03:49live long enough to learn.
01:03:53Sir, the workup's complete.
01:03:55During your three years
01:03:56off the ground,
01:03:57Alexander Cross
01:03:58locked in a coalition.
01:03:59A former president's family,
01:04:01the House of Windsor,
01:04:02and General David Wittnaker,
01:04:03commander of U.S. Northern Command.
01:04:05He's also running a back channel
01:04:06with Russian intelligence.
01:04:08Sir, he wants the overseer's seat.
01:04:11He wants to replace you.
01:04:13My kid brother,
01:04:15half the brains,
01:04:16all the ambition.
01:04:17Tragic combination.
01:04:21Sir, Vanessa Blake
01:04:23has located us somehow.
01:04:25She's at the gate right now
01:04:25asking to meet you.
01:04:27The hell does she want?
01:04:28Don't tell me she actually
01:04:29went through with the lingerie play.
01:04:31Let her in.
01:04:32And while you're at it,
01:04:33clear out any pests
01:04:34lurking nearby.
01:04:43So, you're the overseer.
01:04:46I can't believe
01:04:47I'm finally meeting you.
01:04:48I've admired you for so long.
01:04:50I...
01:04:50I'll do anything for you.
01:04:52What is it you want, Colonel?
01:04:54That figure.
01:04:55That voice.
01:04:57Why does it feel so familiar?
01:04:59I came to tell you
01:05:01I just got divorced.
01:05:03Once I'm promoted
01:05:04to four-star general,
01:05:06I want to belong to you.
01:05:08Even if it's only
01:05:09as your mistress.
01:05:11Let me ask you something, Colonel.
01:05:13Your ex-husband,
01:05:14Daniel Cross.
01:05:15After three years of marriage,
01:05:16there's not even a scrap
01:05:17of feeling left for him?
01:05:19I feel...
01:05:19I feel a little guilty, sure.
01:05:21But I don't owe him anything.
01:05:23Not anymore.
01:05:24The two of us
01:05:24are in separate worlds now.
01:05:26That's true.
01:05:27You two are worlds apart,
01:05:28that's for sure.
01:05:30Sir,
01:05:30a man like you
01:05:32carries the weight
01:05:33of the whole world.
01:05:34You're allowed
01:05:35to enjoy yourself.
01:05:37Let me be the one
01:05:38who helps you forget
01:05:39everything for a while.
01:05:41I'm fine.
01:05:42You should go prepare
01:05:43for tomorrow's ceremony.
01:05:44I hear you, sir.
01:05:45I'm still too lowly
01:05:46for a man like you.
01:05:48I'll come back
01:05:48after I'm promoted.
01:05:57Holy shit, Daniel?
01:05:58The Cross family outcast?
01:06:01He's the overseer?
01:06:03Sir,
01:06:04my unit has this building
01:06:06surrounded.
01:06:07Cooperate and things
01:06:08don't have to get nasty.
01:06:12Is that a threat,
01:06:13General Whitaker?
01:06:14No threat, sir.
01:06:15Just a courtesy call.
01:06:17Tomorrow's ceremony?
01:06:18I want you standing
01:06:20behind Mr. Cross.
01:06:21Publicly.
01:06:22Fall in line
01:06:23with the Cross family
01:06:24and you keep the throne.
01:06:25Keep the influence.
01:06:26Keep the reach.
01:06:27Only difference?
01:06:29You answer to him now.
01:06:31Refuse?
01:06:32Well,
01:06:33we'd hate for things
01:06:33to get messy.
01:06:36What was that supposed to be?
01:06:37A secret signal
01:06:38or something?
01:06:39Where's my unit?
01:06:39Get in here!
01:06:40Now!
01:06:43Delta cell out of Northcom?
01:06:45Solid team.
01:06:46Wrong boss.
01:06:48Your pests have been taken
01:06:48out of the equation,
01:06:49General.
01:06:50Every last one.
01:06:51That's impossible.
01:06:52You were gone for three years.
01:06:54How the hell do you still
01:06:55have this kind of reach
01:06:56inside the military,
01:06:57inside the agencies?
01:06:58General,
01:06:59let me show you
01:07:00just how deep the reach goes.
01:07:01Yesterday,
01:07:02after you left
01:07:03Alexander's estate,
01:07:04you swung by your daughter's school.
01:07:05Kicked her up at 3.15.
01:07:07Dinner was lasagna.
01:07:08Your wife makes it
01:07:09from her grandmother's
01:07:10recipe bologna, right?
01:07:11She only uses
01:07:12San Marzano tomatoes
01:07:13from that little
01:07:14Italian market on M Street.
01:07:17I was out of line,
01:07:18sir.
01:07:18I apologize.
01:07:20From now on,
01:07:21I'm your man.
01:07:23Only yours.
01:07:26Please,
01:07:27just give me a chance
01:07:28to make it right.
01:07:28I don't do business
01:07:30with traitors,
01:07:30General.
01:07:32Tomorrow at the ceremony,
01:07:33I'm stripping you
01:07:34of your command
01:07:34at Northcon.
01:07:35Your service ends
01:07:36publicly.
01:07:40That's what betrayal costs.
01:07:42Yes, sir.
01:07:43Understood.
01:07:43Loud and clear.
01:07:47It's Alexander Cross, sir.
01:07:49Well,
01:07:50how'd it go?
01:07:51The Overseer
01:07:52must be hiding
01:07:52his identity
01:07:53for a good reason.
01:07:54I can't tell Alexander
01:07:55the truth
01:07:56or I'll be dead meat.
01:07:57It went just
01:07:58as you planned, sir.
01:07:59Nicely done.
01:08:00It's good to know
01:08:01that my family
01:08:01didn't waste the money
01:08:02we invested in you.
01:08:04You'll be my ace
01:08:05in the hole
01:08:05at tomorrow's ceremony.
01:08:07Don't let me down.
01:08:11That's your ace,
01:08:12Alexander?
01:08:13You Crossboys
01:08:14really are scraping
01:08:14the bottom of the barrel.
01:08:17I'm calling the Overseer.
01:08:19Final brief
01:08:20on tomorrow's ceremony.
01:08:21You can listen,
01:08:23but not a word
01:08:24out of your mouth.
01:08:25Clear?
01:08:27Sir.
01:08:28We've finished
01:08:29preparations
01:08:29for the promotion ceremony
01:08:31and the Black Eagle
01:08:32medallion
01:08:32has been transported
01:08:33to the venue,
01:08:34displayed as the mark
01:08:35of your authority,
01:08:36as requested.
01:08:37Good.
01:08:38I've been gone
01:08:38for three years.
01:08:39Time for the world
01:08:40to remember
01:08:41who I am.
01:08:42That's weird.
01:08:42Why do I feel
01:08:43like I've heard
01:08:44that voice before?
01:08:48Jesus,
01:08:49is that the real
01:08:50Black Eagle medallion?
01:08:51That is the Overseer's
01:08:52signet,
01:08:53the actual piece.
01:08:54Rumor is,
01:08:54the guy holding
01:08:55that thing
01:08:55calls the shots
01:08:56on every branch
01:08:57of the military
01:08:57and every intel agency
01:08:59in the country.
01:09:01Hell,
01:09:02he decides
01:09:03who walks
01:09:03into which office
01:09:04in D.C.
01:09:05And this,
01:09:06this is his seal.
01:09:10There it is.
01:09:11By the end of tonight,
01:09:12that medallion is mine.
01:09:13And every lever
01:09:14the Overseer
01:09:15ever pulled,
01:09:16the military,
01:09:17the agencies,
01:09:18this whole damn country
01:09:20comes with it.
01:09:23You want the Overseer's power?
01:09:25In your dreams,
01:09:26kid brother.
01:09:30Daniel,
01:09:32get out.
01:09:34This isn't a place
01:09:35you belong in.
01:09:35Same old song,
01:09:36Vanessa.
01:09:37You're starting to sound
01:09:38like a broken record.
01:09:40Wow.
01:09:41You really have
01:09:42a death wish,
01:09:43don't you?
01:09:44Fine.
01:09:45I'm not lifting a finger
01:09:46to stop it this time.
01:09:48Or maybe you're
01:09:49just delusional,
01:09:50Daniel.
01:09:51Quit acting
01:09:52like you're still a cross.
01:09:53You're a nobody now.
01:09:55Everyone here
01:09:56has the power
01:09:57to have you executed
01:09:58on the spot.
01:09:59So drop to your knees.
01:10:01Show some respect.
01:10:03Remind me who you are again?
01:10:04Some former
01:10:04president's daughter?
01:10:06Sweetheart,
01:10:07even your father
01:10:08wouldn't dare
01:10:08talk to me like that.
01:10:10What about me?
01:10:11I'm a princess.
01:10:12His last...
01:10:13Same goes for you,
01:10:14princess.
01:10:15And me?
01:10:16I'm the Overseer's
01:10:17right-hand man
01:10:18and the next
01:10:19secretary of state.
01:10:24Don't make me laugh,
01:10:25kid.
01:10:25You don't even
01:10:26make the cut.
01:10:27Drop the act,
01:10:28Daniel.
01:10:29We all know
01:10:29exactly what you are,
01:10:31you pathetic loser.
01:10:34Daniel,
01:10:34you are beyond saving.
01:10:37You know what?
01:10:38Fine.
01:10:39If he wants to die tonight,
01:10:41let's oblige him.
01:10:42M.P.'s!
01:10:49Marcus,
01:10:49you've got three minutes
01:10:50to get here.
01:10:51One second late
01:10:52and your command,
01:10:53no,
01:10:53your life,
01:10:53ends with your
01:10:54precious grandsons.
01:10:57This ceremony
01:10:58has to go off
01:10:59without a hitch.
01:11:00Then we're in the
01:11:01Overseer's Inner Circle
01:11:03and the Vaughn name
01:11:04is Untouchable.
01:11:06Set for generations.
01:11:08You've got three minutes
01:11:09to get here,
01:11:10one second late
01:11:11and your command,
01:11:11no,
01:11:12your life,
01:11:13ends with your
01:11:14precious grandsons.
01:11:16Yes, sir.
01:11:16On my way.
01:11:17Tonight,
01:11:18the Overseer
01:11:19will return
01:11:19and reveal
01:11:20his true identity.
01:11:22When Vanessa,
01:11:23Tristan,
01:11:24and Alexander
01:11:24see who he really is,
01:11:27well,
01:11:28that'll be a spectacle.
01:11:32Mount up.
01:11:33Move out.
01:11:37The Overseer
01:11:38has power
01:11:39that we can't even
01:11:40dream of.
01:11:41And Alexander
01:11:42thinks he can put
01:11:43a leash
01:11:43on a man like that.
01:11:44He's out of his
01:11:45damn mind.
01:11:46I owe everything
01:11:47to the Cross family.
01:11:48I can't just stand by
01:11:49and watch Alexander
01:11:50burn it all down.
01:11:52I have to get
01:11:53to that ceremony.
01:11:54Three minutes?
01:11:55My grandfather,
01:11:56a four-star general
01:11:57dropping everything
01:11:58to sprint over here?
01:11:59For you,
01:12:00Daniel?
01:12:00Bro,
01:12:01tell me you're not
01:12:02smoking crack.
01:12:03Seriously.
01:12:03The Cross family
01:12:04cut Daniel loose
01:12:05because he couldn't cut it.
01:12:07Now he's throwing
01:12:08a tantrum
01:12:09to feel relevant again.
01:12:10It's pitiful,
01:12:12really.
01:12:13That's enough,
01:12:14Daniel.
01:12:15Are you still
01:12:15trying to impress me
01:12:16by impersonating
01:12:17the Overseer?
01:12:18I won't fall for it again.
01:12:20You two aren't even
01:12:21in the same league.
01:12:22I am the Overseer.
01:12:24Pity you're all
01:12:24too blind to see it.
01:12:26Doesn't matter,
01:12:27tonight was always
01:12:28supposed to be
01:12:28about Claire anyway.
01:12:30Guess it's time
01:12:30to drop the mask
01:12:31a little early.
01:12:37Hands off!
01:12:38You trying to steal
01:12:39the Overseer's medallion?
01:12:41That scanner only
01:12:41recognizes the Overseer!
01:12:43Anyone else touches it?
01:12:45The security lasers
01:12:46cut them down
01:12:47on the spot.
01:12:49And don't get
01:12:49the wrong idea.
01:12:50I couldn't care less
01:12:51whether you live or die.
01:12:53I just don't want
01:12:54your blood staining
01:12:54the Overseer's ceremony.
01:12:56You just lost
01:12:57your last chance,
01:12:58Vanessa.
01:12:58I can't believe
01:13:00you tried to touch
01:13:00the Overseer's things.
01:13:02You're begging
01:13:02to get buried, bro.
01:13:04As his right-hand man,
01:13:06I'll have you
01:13:07arrested and
01:13:07court-martialed.
01:13:08Hold on.
01:13:09Once I make
01:13:09the Overseer serve me,
01:13:11that medallion
01:13:11will be mine.
01:13:12So he's actually
01:13:12touching my things.
01:13:14Forget a court-martial.
01:13:15Take him to the basement.
01:13:16A hundred days
01:13:16on the rack.
01:13:17Then we drag
01:13:18what's left
01:13:18through the streets.
01:13:20All bark,
01:13:21no bite.
01:13:21That was you
01:13:21all along, huh, Daniel?
01:13:23Mr. Cross
01:13:24was actually
01:13:24going to let you walk,
01:13:25but you just had
01:13:26to come over here
01:13:27and beg for death.
01:13:28Daniel,
01:13:29even if I wanted
01:13:30to save you
01:13:30for old times' sake,
01:13:31there's nothing
01:13:32I can do now.
01:13:32So what's it
01:13:33going to be, Daniel?
01:13:34Walk to the courtroom
01:13:35on your own two feet,
01:13:37or should we
01:13:37chop him off
01:13:38and drag you
01:13:39there ourselves?
01:13:40Three minutes.
01:13:41That's a wrap.
01:13:43Bro, give me a break.
01:13:44That's not happening.
01:13:45Now arriving,
01:13:46General Marcus Vaughn,
01:13:47Commander of
01:13:48U.S. Stratcom.
01:13:56Grandpa, what are you
01:13:58doing here?
01:13:58Don't tell me you
01:13:59actually...
01:14:00The Overseer
01:14:01called me,
01:14:02said it was urgent.
01:14:04What the hell's
01:14:04going on in here?
01:14:06This crazy piece
01:14:07of shit's been
01:14:07causing a scene.
01:14:09He's impersonating
01:14:10the Overseer
01:14:11again,
01:14:11and he just tried
01:14:12to touch
01:14:13the Black Eagle
01:14:14medallion.
01:14:15Have him arrested.
01:14:16You again?
01:14:17The Blake family's
01:14:18cast-off deadbeat.
01:14:20No wonder
01:14:21the Overseer
01:14:21sounded so pissed
01:14:22on the phone.
01:14:23Some broke-ass
01:14:24nobody keeps
01:14:25impersonating him.
01:14:26Grandpa,
01:14:27let me haul
01:14:28this loser off,
01:14:29make an example
01:14:29of him right
01:14:30in front of everyone.
01:14:31Wait!
01:14:31He pissed off
01:14:32the Overseer.
01:14:33We don't move
01:14:34on him without clearance.
01:14:35Let me loop
01:14:35the Overseer in first.
01:14:39Sir, I'm on site
01:14:40at the ceremony.
01:14:41We've got someone
01:14:42impersonating you
01:14:43in here.
01:14:43What are your orders?
01:14:46My orders?
01:14:48To a heavyweight
01:14:48like you,
01:14:49General?
01:14:50Wouldn't dream of it.
01:14:51Sir, this is
01:14:52some kind of joke?
01:14:56A joke.
01:14:58Your precious
01:14:59grandson said
01:15:00he was the
01:15:00Overseer's
01:15:01right-hand man.
01:15:02Then he called
01:15:02me a piece of shit
01:15:03and said he'd
01:15:04have me court-martialed.
01:15:05And you?
01:15:06You're his
01:15:06grandfather,
01:15:07General.
01:15:07I wouldn't dream
01:15:08of giving you
01:15:09orders.
01:15:10Wait,
01:15:11you're
01:15:12the Overseer?
01:15:17Sir!
01:15:18Please!
01:15:19Give me a chance
01:15:20to explain.
01:15:21This is...
01:15:22This has to be...
01:15:24some kind of
01:15:24misunderstanding.
01:15:26Grandpa?
01:15:27Why are you
01:15:27sucking up to this
01:15:28piece of-
01:15:28Shut the fuck up,
01:15:29you little brat!
01:15:35I apologize
01:15:36on my grandson's
01:15:37behalf, sir.
01:15:38I'll have him
01:15:39court-martialed
01:15:39myself.
01:15:40As the commander
01:15:41of US Stratcom,
01:15:42I should have kept
01:15:43this from ever
01:15:44happening.
01:15:45Punish me as
01:15:45you see fit.
01:15:46That's impossible.
01:15:49You mean Daniel
01:15:50is actually
01:15:50the Overseer?
01:15:51Daniel?
01:15:52Daniel?
01:15:53Is this really
01:15:54true?
01:15:55It is,
01:15:56Claire.
01:15:56And I'm going
01:15:58to keep all
01:15:58my promises
01:15:59to you.
01:16:00Wow!
01:16:01Somebody get
01:16:02this man an Oscar!
01:16:03Don't buy my
01:16:04brother's little
01:16:05circus act,
01:16:06everyone.
01:16:06No way in hell
01:16:07he's the Overseer.
01:16:08Think about it.
01:16:09Would the actual
01:16:10Overseer let the
01:16:11Cross family kick
01:16:12him out?
01:16:12Exactly.
01:16:13This loser
01:16:14probably swiped the
01:16:15Overseer's phone
01:16:16from somewhere.
01:16:18or maybe Marcus
01:16:19Vaughn is in on
01:16:20it too and he's
01:16:21just playing
01:16:21along.
01:16:26Seriously,
01:16:27Daniel,
01:16:27you almost had
01:16:28me.
01:16:29But lucky for
01:16:29me, I know
01:16:31you two well.
01:16:32And I've got
01:16:32intel from David
01:16:33Witwerk at
01:16:34Northcom.
01:16:34You're still
01:16:35playing this
01:16:35game, Daniel?
01:16:37I have no idea
01:16:38how you got
01:16:39Marcus Vaughn to
01:16:39play along,
01:16:40but you're done
01:16:41lying.
01:16:43Tonight,
01:16:43you die.
01:16:48Grandpa,
01:16:49he got to
01:16:50you.
01:16:50He played
01:16:50you.
01:16:51Come on,
01:16:52let's put this
01:16:53piece of shit
01:16:53in cuffs.
01:16:54Make it right
01:16:54with the Overseer.
01:16:55We can still
01:16:56fix this.
01:16:57I get it now.
01:16:59This whole thing's
01:17:00an ego trip,
01:17:01Daniel.
01:17:02You keep running
01:17:02these cons on
01:17:03powerful people
01:17:04like us just
01:17:04to steal the
01:17:05spotlight because
01:17:06you can't stand
01:17:07being a nobody.
01:17:08You're gonna
01:17:09pay for this.
01:17:10Let's end him.
01:17:11Right now.
01:17:15Yeah.
01:17:16Fuck you for
01:17:17trying to con
01:17:17my grandfather.
01:17:18You're dead.
01:17:21I won't tolerate
01:17:22you pulling a
01:17:22stunt like that
01:17:23on me,
01:17:23brother dear.
01:17:25Bye-bye.
01:17:28Daniel,
01:17:28please.
01:17:29You need to
01:17:29go.
01:17:30Now,
01:17:30before it's
01:17:31too late.
01:17:32Sure,
01:17:32Claire.
01:17:33I'll go.
01:17:34Right after I
01:17:35pin those four
01:17:36stars on your
01:17:36shoulder myself.
01:17:39Since every
01:17:40last one of you
01:17:40is so goddamn
01:17:41eager to die
01:17:42tonight,
01:17:42let me give you
01:17:43a hand.
01:17:58Not one of you
01:17:59believed I was
01:18:00the overseer.
01:18:01Not one of you
01:18:02believed this
01:18:03medallion was
01:18:03mine.
01:18:06But every single
01:18:07one of you
01:18:07believed you
01:18:07could put me
01:18:08in the ground.
01:18:10Time to pay up
01:18:11for that arrogance.
01:18:19Drop your
01:18:19weapons.
01:18:20Hands where
01:18:20I can see them.
01:18:21Resist,
01:18:22and my men
01:18:22light you up.
01:18:28No.
01:18:29That is
01:18:29impossible.
01:18:30Only the
01:18:31overseer can
01:18:31open that
01:18:32case.
01:18:33Only him.
