Transcript

00:00:00Welcome aboard flight 233 to New York City.

00:00:05Wi-Fi is now available.

00:00:07We wish you a pleasant journey.

00:00:13Lady Thunder, your fiancé graduates from Stanford today.

00:00:16As requested, we've secured him a partner track offer at Whitmore.

00:00:19His celebration dinner's all set. It starts once you land.

00:00:22Noted. Good work, Adam.

00:00:25Also, Sebastian Whitmore from the Whitmore Group has been quietly coding us for investment.

00:00:28Send me the deck.

00:00:41Parker, just tell my grandma I'm not marrying the Caldwell girl.

00:00:45Boss, the Caldwells are our shot at the Thunder Circle. It's a trillion dollar powerhouse.

00:00:49Your grandma sees this marriage as the golden ticket. We can't afford to say no.

00:00:52So now I'm just being auctioned off into a loveless marriage?

00:00:55That's not fair to me or to her.

00:00:57The Caldwell family already surpassed us in market share. Unless you marry someone else.

00:01:01Marry someone else.

00:01:07Uh, that button calls the crew?

00:01:10Oh, thanks.

00:01:11First time flying commercial?

00:01:13Yeah. I'm used to something a bit different.

00:01:16My private plane doesn't have buttons.

00:01:18I talk, and they show up.

00:01:21Lady Thunder, the chefs prepared your favorites.

00:01:24Seared scallops and the blueberry turk from Zurich.

00:01:33What did you do in Africa?

00:01:34Just some volunteer stuff. Built shelters, took care of kids.

00:01:37Oh, wow. That's pretty cool.

00:01:40She probably didn't make a cent doing that.

00:01:42But the way she talks about it, like it mattered, she must be one of those rare genius people.

00:01:47Maybe...

00:01:48I'm Sebastian, by the way.

00:01:51Eleanor.

00:01:53Well, Eleanor, this might sound totally insane, but would you mind doing me a favor?

00:01:59What favor?

00:02:00Let me introduce myself properly.

00:02:02I'm the CEO of Whitmore Group, a hair to Whitmore's fortune.

00:02:06I own five properties and two private estates.

00:02:08Annual income, one billion dollars.

00:02:10And, I want you to be my wife.

00:02:16I'm sorry, what...

00:02:17I mean, a fake marriage, just for a year.

00:02:19I need someone good to play my wife.

00:02:22And you seem... kind.

00:02:25I see. You're clinically insane.

00:02:28I'm serious, Eleanor.

00:02:29You can trust me.

00:02:30I have no scandals, no addictions, nothing shady in my past.

00:02:34If you agree, we can sign the paperwork today.

00:02:36And, I'll offer a hundred thousand a month.

00:02:38Plus a waterfront of Condon Midtown.

00:02:40In your name only.

00:02:41You really picked the wrong girl.

00:02:43Already taken.

00:02:44I'm flying back to get married.

00:02:46Oh.

00:02:49I didn't see that coming.

00:02:51I...

00:02:52Sorry.

00:02:54So that's it.

00:02:56Guess I just have to suck it up.

00:03:00You don't seem that helpless to me.

00:03:02Your AI subsidiary under Whitmore Group, it's got potential.

00:03:05The Thunder Circle's watching it.

00:03:06But if that's your pitch deck to win them over, you're toast.

00:03:10Oh, really?

00:03:11And what would you know about it?

00:03:13You don't get how the business world works, little girl.

00:03:15Funny coming from the guy who just proposed to that little girl five minutes ago.

00:03:28We might not be getting married, but I can still help you.

00:03:32Hey, what are you doing?

00:03:35Fixing your pitch.

00:03:36You're asking for a hundred million?

00:03:38Cute.

00:03:39Try a hundred billion.

00:03:41Excuse me.

00:03:42What?

00:03:44There.

00:03:45That's better.

00:03:47What the hell did you just do?

00:03:49You sent that.

00:03:49You actually sent it?

00:03:50You were underselling yourself.

00:03:52You hijacked my pitch.

00:03:54Do you have any idea what you've just done?

00:03:56I helped you.

00:03:58Helped?

00:03:58You call this helping?

00:04:00Sir, ma'am.

00:04:01Is everything all right?

00:04:02We're good.

00:04:03He just got a hundred billion dollar investment.

00:04:06He's a bit emotional.

00:04:07Emotional.

00:04:10Well, congratulations.

00:04:12Trust me.

00:04:13The Thunder Circle doesn't make small moves.

00:04:15Asking for a hundred million, that's an insult.

00:04:18A hundred billion.

00:04:19That's where the conversation starts.

00:04:21You really need to think bigger.

00:04:22Did you seriously just say that?

00:04:24You're welcome.

00:04:25Great.

00:04:25First, you messed with my file.

00:04:27Then you humiliated me in public.

00:04:29Congratulations.

00:04:29You're officially the most infuriating woman I ever met.

00:04:32Lucky we're not married, huh?

00:04:35You still can't tell who's saving who.

00:04:44Please remain seated until the aircraft has come to a complete stop.

00:04:53Help a guy land a billion dollar deal and he doesn't even say thank you.

00:04:57Please.

00:04:57Daniel would never.

00:04:58Five years apart.

00:05:00He must be surprised if he sees me.

00:05:05You sure about this?

00:05:06Africa's far.

00:05:07It's not just a trip.

00:05:08I'm going to change the world, Dan.

00:05:10You always knew that was the dream.

00:05:13Here.

00:05:16When you come back,

00:05:17we'll get married.

00:05:32My boy, look at this.

00:05:34An entire party just for you.

00:05:37Whitmore Group doesn't do this for just anyone.

00:05:40We've officially made it.

00:05:41It's just the beginning, mom.

00:05:43You know, my dream is to become someone like Sebastian Whitmore, the CEO.

00:05:49But he's a mystery.

00:05:51Never appears in public.

00:05:55Assuming I'll see him today.

00:05:56After all these years of my funding,

00:05:59Daniel's finally made it.

00:06:01A PhD.

00:06:03Partner at Whitmore Group.

00:06:04It's time to let him know my real identity.

00:06:07And start our sweet life.

00:06:22Is that Eleanor?

00:06:23Isn't she begging for life abroad?

00:06:25What the hell is she doing here?

00:06:35Daniel.

00:06:37Congratulations.

00:06:39Uh, Eleanor.

00:06:41I heard about the offer.

00:06:43Thought I'd surprise you.

00:06:44Why are you here?

00:06:45I flew back.

00:06:46For you.

00:06:47Let me guess.

00:06:48You heard about his Whitmore offer, the salary,

00:06:50and you decided to claw your way back.

00:06:52What?

00:06:53Don't act surprised.

00:06:55Five years you vanished.

00:06:57The second he makes partner,

00:06:58you show up with discount flowers

00:07:00and a name that means nothing.

00:07:04You shouldn't have come, Eleanor.

00:07:06This...

00:07:06Whatever we were,

00:07:08it's over.

00:07:09What?

00:07:10Let's break up.

00:07:14But why?

00:07:16We spent five years building towards this.

00:07:20You...

00:07:20You said you loved me.

00:07:23You thought Daniel would love you?

00:07:25Don't be absurd.

00:07:25My son has a PhD.

00:07:27He's just made partner at Whitmore,

00:07:29pulling in 30 million a year.

00:07:32And you?

00:07:33You vanished to Africa and worked there as a nanny.

00:07:35Do you really think that makes you worthy of him?

00:07:37My mom is right.

00:07:39We're not the same anymore.

00:07:40Not the same.

00:07:41Look around.

00:07:42This is the party Whitmore threw for me.

00:07:44These people?

00:07:45Legacy investors.

00:07:47Legacy investors.

00:07:47Real powers.

00:07:48And you think I could introduce them to an embarrassment?

00:07:52I'm an embarrassment.

00:07:53So that's what this did to you.

00:07:56One offer from Whitmore,

00:07:57and you think you're untouchable.

00:08:00Did you know, Daniel?

00:08:01To me, the Whitmore group is nothing.

00:08:03You arrogant little cockroach.

00:08:06How dare you look down on the top firm in this country?

00:08:09You want to know why Whitmore gave?

00:08:12Because someone vouched for you.

00:08:14Someone they'd never dare ignore.

00:08:17You that offer?

00:08:18And that someone...

00:08:21was me.

00:08:29I'm sorry, what?

00:08:31Confirmed.

00:08:31Are you sure?

00:08:33Okay, thank you.

00:08:35Mr. Wiltford,

00:08:36you're not going to believe this.

00:08:37The Thunder Circle just approved a direct investment in us.

00:08:40Say what?

00:08:42One hundred billion dollars.

00:08:45What?

00:08:45It's Lady Thunder's move, you know,

00:08:46the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle.

00:08:48It's her first formal return to the States,

00:08:50and we're her first target.

00:08:52We got it.

00:08:52A hundred billion.

00:08:54But if that's your pitch deck to win them over...

00:08:57She was right.

00:08:58It's one hundred billion.

00:09:01Parker, find her.

00:09:03The woman from the Nairobi flight.

00:09:05Eleanor, I don't care what it takes.

00:09:07Find her.

00:09:09Understood.

00:09:10But what do you want with her?

00:09:12I'm going to marry her.

00:09:14Wait, what?

00:09:15I've never seen a challenging girl like he.

00:09:18She is the one I want.

00:09:22You self-important bitch!

00:09:25Who the hell do you think you are?

00:09:28I get it, Eleanor.

00:09:29You're not upset about the breakup.

00:09:30You're just pissed of all the money you poured into me.

00:09:32Just name your number.

00:09:34Once I get my first check from Whitmore,

00:09:35I'll pay you off,

00:09:36and then we're done.

00:09:37For good.

00:09:39Is that what you think?

00:09:41That I'm here chasing the money I gave you?

00:09:45Let's settle up.

00:09:46How about a hundred grand?

00:09:50Two hundred.

00:09:54Three.

00:09:55Daniel.

00:09:56That's my final offer.

00:09:58Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.

00:10:00That's more than you've ever seen.

00:10:03You still think I came here for money?

00:10:05Just take it and go.

00:10:06My son should have dropped you ages ago.

00:10:08God knows what you were really doing over Sears.

00:10:11What do you mean?

00:10:12I mean, if you weren't selling yourself,

00:10:14how else could you afford to fund his education?

00:10:16You expect me to believe you earned that kind of money

00:10:18by nannying children?

00:10:20What?

00:10:20How dare you?

00:10:21Eleanor.

00:10:22For the sake of our seven years together,

00:10:24just take the money and leave.

00:10:26Daniel.

00:10:27I can't believe how heartless you are.

00:10:29He's done with you.

00:10:30Can't you get that through your thick head?

00:10:32She's not worth your time.

00:10:34Oh, where's Margaret?

00:10:36Didn't she say she was coming tonight?

00:10:37Yeah.

00:10:38Said she had something to handle first.

00:10:40Should be here soon.

00:10:41Margaret.

00:10:42Daughter of James West, vice chair of Whitmore.

00:10:44Practically next in line after Sebastian.

00:10:47Only someone like her is a match for my son.

00:10:49Rich, properly pedigreed.

00:10:50And you.

00:10:52You're just a misstep he should have never taken.

00:10:54Eleanor.

00:10:55Margaret's on her way.

00:10:56You should leave.

00:10:57Trust me.

00:10:58You don't want to be here when she walks in.

00:11:02Because the moment you see her,

00:11:04you'll be ashamed of yourself.

00:11:07Now I see it.

00:11:09You didn't just break up with me because of the job.

00:11:11It was because of her.

00:11:13Margaret.

00:11:13At least with her,

00:11:14I can build something bigger.

00:11:16Really?

00:11:16And you're so sure I couldn't help you build something better

00:11:18than anything she could?

00:11:20You.

00:11:21Please.

00:11:22So,

00:11:23you actually think you're better than me.

00:11:26Margaret, my dear, you're here.

00:11:29Let me guess.

00:11:30You're Eleanor.

00:11:32Daniel's ex-girlfriend.

00:11:33You look exactly how I pictured.

00:11:35Bargain box dress,

00:11:36basic face,

00:11:37still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.

00:11:40Oh, don't mind her.

00:11:41She never deserved to be with Daniel.

00:11:43Just a pathetic shadow tagging along.

00:11:46So,

00:11:46you seriously thought you could compete with me?

00:11:49I'm Margaret West,

00:11:50daughter of James West,

00:11:51vice chair of Whitmore Group.

00:11:52And you?

00:11:53You're not even worth the dirt under my heel.

00:11:55You're right.

00:11:56Because unlike you,

00:11:57I don't have to cling to Daddy's title to matter.

00:11:59Excuse me?

00:12:00A piece of trash like you dares to talk back?

00:12:03Get out.

00:12:03Now.

00:12:04Before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.

00:12:07Exactly.

00:12:07This is a ceremony for elites,

00:12:09not beggars.

00:12:13What the hell is going on here?

00:12:18Margaret,

00:12:19is everything all right?

00:12:20Why don't you ask her?

00:12:21She got dumped by Daniel,

00:12:23and now she's crashing his party.

00:12:25Dr. Prescott is our new partner,

00:12:27handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.

00:12:29Whatever this is,

00:12:30you're way out of line.

00:12:32Exactly.

00:12:32Look around.

00:12:33These aren't just normal guests,

00:12:35Mr. Cooper.

00:12:35This is Whitmore's A-Team.

00:12:37CEOs,

00:12:38professionals,

00:12:39the people who run this city.

00:12:41And then there's her,

00:12:42some college dropout

00:12:44who thinks raised children in Africa is a career.

00:12:46I was running a charity.

00:12:48Oh,

00:12:49so that's what we're calling unemployment now.

00:12:53Charity?

00:12:54Honey,

00:12:54just say you were broke

00:12:56and too proud to get a real job.

00:12:58We all know why she's here,

00:13:00chasing my son,

00:13:01hoping him will drag her out of the gutter.

00:13:03So she's a gold digger.

00:13:05That's pathetic.

00:13:07Next time you want to play elite,

00:13:08try finishing college first.

00:13:10You hear that?

00:13:11This is reality.

00:13:12My son,

00:13:13a PhD,

00:13:14future partner.

00:13:15You!

00:13:16Just the mud on his shoes.

00:13:21Now crawl back to the shack you came from.

00:13:24Your fairy tale is over.

00:13:32Eleanor,

00:13:33a woman can be broke

00:13:34or uneducated,

00:13:35but delusional,

00:13:36that's where I draw the line.

00:13:38No matter what you tell yourself,

00:13:39I would never marry you.

00:13:41Funny.

00:13:43You want to know my biggest mistake, Daniel?

00:13:45believing in you.

00:13:47Seven years.

00:13:48Seven years of working,

00:13:50wiring money

00:13:51when you couldn't pay rent or tuition,

00:13:53and this is how it ends?

00:13:54Don't twist this.

00:13:55Stop acting like I forced you.

00:13:56I don't need to twist anything.

00:13:58I bankrolled your PhD,

00:14:00helped land your offer at Whitmore,

00:14:01and you dropped me the second you made it upstairs.

00:14:03I told you,

00:14:04I'd pay you back.

00:14:05What more do you want?

00:14:06You think this was a transaction?

00:14:08That's not remorse, Daniel.

00:14:10That's cowardice wrapped in a check.

00:14:16We're done.

00:14:18You are my grateful little...

00:14:22That's enough!

00:14:23I'm done with your tantrums!

00:14:25Get the fuck out of my life!

00:14:27God, look at her.

00:14:29So desperate.

00:14:31Someone get her a towel.

00:14:32Her face is starting to make me sick.

00:14:35All right, lady, that's enough.

00:14:37Dr. Prescott's an asset to Whitmore,

00:14:39and you,

00:14:39you just humiliated yourself.

00:14:41Now get out.

00:14:42We found Eleanor, sir.

00:14:44Where?

00:14:44She's inside Whitmore HQ

00:14:46at the Prescott welcome event.

00:14:48Sounds like

00:14:49things are getting ugly.

00:14:50Dr. Prescott, quick.

00:14:51Head to the company now.

00:14:57See that?

00:14:58Everyone here knows

00:14:59you're humiliating yourself.

00:15:00Just leave, Eleanor,

00:15:01before this gets worse for you.

00:15:03Worse?

00:15:03What, because I dared to stand

00:15:05where I don't belong?

00:15:06You want to be the circus act?

00:15:07Fine.

00:15:08But don't expect me to save you

00:15:09when this all blows up in your face.

00:15:11Save me.

00:15:12That's rich.

00:15:13You don't have that right.

00:15:15You never did.

00:15:16Final warning.

00:15:17Walk out on your own

00:15:18or I'll have security drag you out.

00:15:19Go ahead.

00:15:20Call your guards.

00:15:20But let's be clear.

00:15:21I walked into this building

00:15:23because I have every right to be here.

00:15:25And none of you

00:15:26has the power to push me out.

00:15:29Not even surprised.

00:15:32Faster.

00:15:33I don't care what it takes.

00:15:34Get me to her.

00:15:34Now.

00:15:35Yes, sir.

00:15:37Yes, sir.

00:15:38Yes, sir.

00:15:39Yes, sir.

00:15:40Yes, sir.

00:15:41Yes, sir.

00:15:42Yes, sir.

00:15:48Yes, sir.

00:15:48Eleanor, do you have any idea

00:15:49what the name Sebastian Whitfield means?

00:15:51Wow.

00:15:52You're even dumber than I thought.

00:15:54You just insulted the man

00:15:55who built this empire.

00:15:57Even my father wouldn't dare challenge him.

00:15:59But you, you're so done.

00:16:02So, in your world,

00:16:04Sebastian Whitfield might be untouchable.

00:16:06But in mine, he's just a man.

00:16:08I'd be more worried if I were you.

00:16:10Because you put a hand on me,

00:16:11he might have a bigger problem with you.

00:16:13You must have a death wish.

00:16:14Eleanor, I get that the breakup hurt,

00:16:16but now you're spiraling.

00:16:17Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that,

00:16:19I was actually going to get you a janitor job here.

00:16:23You were going to recommend me for a janitor position.

00:16:26Do you know how competitive it is just to work here?

00:16:28Even our security guards have degrees.

00:16:30And you didn't even finish yours.

00:16:33So that's how you've always seen me?

00:16:34That's reality.

00:16:35And after everything,

00:16:37trust me,

00:16:37Whitmore has no place for you.

00:16:39I never needed your recommendation.

00:16:42And as for whether Whitmore has a place for me,

00:16:44why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?

00:17:02Where is she?

00:17:09Conference hall.

00:17:10It's tense.

00:17:11From what I heard,

00:17:12she and Daniel Prescott were involved.

00:17:14He dumped her.

00:17:16Huh.

00:17:17They broke up.

00:17:18Well, that saves me the trouble

00:17:20of stealing someone's fiance.

00:17:30What's your goal here, Eleanor?

00:17:31Seriously,

00:17:32trying to crash and burn in public?

00:17:34I'll tell you what it is.

00:17:35She couldn't keep you,

00:17:37so now she wants to drag you down with her.

00:17:39Ugh.

00:17:40Pathetic ex-revenge.

00:17:41Don't worry, Daniel.

00:17:42I've got you.

00:17:43Margaret's father is the vice chair.

00:17:46With their support,

00:17:48whatever stunt she's pulling ends.

00:17:50Trust me,

00:17:51and once Mr. Whitmore shows up,

00:17:52she's got maybe five minutes left.

00:17:53I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.

00:17:55Honestly,

00:17:56leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.

00:17:58Was it?

00:17:58Because when the truth comes out,

00:18:00you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.

00:18:06What?

00:18:07Mr. Whitmore just arrived?

00:18:10Mr. Whitmore,

00:18:12he came straight from the airport.

00:18:13He's in the lobby now.

00:18:14Wait,

00:18:15he actually came?

00:18:17Oh my God!

00:18:19He came to support Daniel!

00:18:22You hear that?

00:18:23Sebastian Whitworth is here for my son!

00:18:26This is it.

00:18:27No one can touch us now.

00:18:29Hear that, sweetheart?

00:18:30Whitney Group doesn't take in strays.

00:18:33Get out!

00:18:34While you still have legs to walk on.

00:18:37Here's your last chance.

00:18:39Half a million dollars.

00:18:40Half a million?

00:18:41For her?

00:18:42It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.

00:18:45Take the money, Eleanor.

00:18:47Disappear.

00:18:48That's more than you'll see in ten lifetimes.

00:18:51Be smart.

00:18:52Take it.

00:18:52And vanish.

00:18:58You talk a lot about power, Daniel.

00:19:01But when you know who I am,

00:19:03you'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.

00:19:07Shit.

00:19:09What the hell?

00:19:11You dare humiliate me!

00:19:16You really think you're someone now?

00:19:20Someone's gonna change everything.

00:19:22Ben, make your little and L announcement.

00:19:24But if it's bullshit,

00:19:26you'll be crawling out of here,

00:19:27kissing every shoe in this room.

00:19:29Oh, come on.

00:19:30This low-status nobody

00:19:32doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's shoes here.

00:19:36We'll be right back.

00:20:07She's my wife.

00:20:10Is that status high enough for you?

00:20:13Mr. Whitmore!

00:20:17They did this to you.

00:20:18It's okay.

00:20:19Just a few flies buzzing.

00:20:20Also, I don't recall saying yes

00:20:22to that little proposal on the plane.

00:20:25I never regret the words I mean.

00:20:27So now,

00:20:29let me take out the trash.

00:20:31Who the hell are you?

00:20:32Storming in like this.

00:20:36Did you not hear me the first time?

00:20:37I'm Eleanor's husband.

00:20:39This woman right here.

00:20:40She's my wife.

00:20:49What?

00:20:50Mr. Whitmore married?

00:20:51But he's never,

00:20:52he's always kept his distance from me.

00:20:53Oh, God.

00:20:55I'm dead.

00:20:56I'm so dead.

00:20:57You said she's your wife, Eleanor,

00:20:58you shameless bitch.

00:20:59You strung my son along for years

00:21:01and then what?

00:21:02Snick off to marry someone else behind his back?

00:21:04So Eleanor was already married.

00:21:05She was never in it for you.

00:21:06She was just after your money.

00:21:07Was this your game the whole time, Eleanor?

00:21:09Playing me while sleeping with another man?

00:21:11Don't twist it.

00:21:11You know exactly who betrayed him.

00:21:13She's right.

00:21:13You don't even realize what you threw away.

00:21:15Eleanor's a brilliant woman.

00:21:16You were never even close to being worthy of her.

00:21:18Are you saying my son's not good enough for this hooker?

00:21:20He's a PhD on a 3.5 million partner offer.

00:21:23Watch your mouth.

00:21:25Please.

00:21:26Eleanor just crawled back with nothing

00:21:27and now you want us to believe she has a husband?

00:21:29Let me guess.

00:21:30She hired you, right?

00:21:31Hired a pretty face to play the loving husband

00:21:34and save your pride.

00:21:37What, you're saying she brought in an actor?

00:21:39I mean, look at him.

00:21:40Designer coat, sexy look, total escort vibes.

00:21:43No way she pulled a guy like that on her own.

00:21:48Exactly.

00:21:49She probably paid for the full fantasy package.

00:21:53Who knows, maybe he throws in a few extra services, too.

00:21:58Oh, God.

00:21:59That's Mr. Whitmore.

00:22:00She just called the CEO a gigolo.

00:22:02Dr. Prextot, maybe this isn't the time to...

00:22:05Oh, Uncle Tomas.

00:22:06He probably works at some private club in Soho.

00:22:10She hired him by the hour.

00:22:11Let's not kid ourselves.

00:22:13Margaret, you can't just...

00:22:15Relax, Uncle Tomas.

00:22:17This cheap street escort doesn't belong at Whitmore.

00:22:22But, as an Eleanor dragged him in,

00:22:25nobody's blaming us.

00:22:26Oh, you don't understand.

00:22:28This is...

00:22:29Really, Eleanor?

00:22:30You think hiring a cowboy makes you look powerful?

00:22:33It just screams pathetic.

00:22:34Exactly, you pathetic social climber.

00:22:37Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.

00:22:39Please, stop.

00:22:41You have no idea what...

00:22:42Uncle Tomas!

00:22:43What's gotten into you today?

00:22:45Why so fussy?

00:22:46It's just a washed-up babysitter and her rented boy toy.

00:22:49I'll deal with them.

00:22:50Don't say another word.

00:22:54You want to keep up the fantasy?

00:22:57Good, but by the time this night's over,

00:22:59you'll both be finished.

00:23:01You think this is pretend?

00:23:03Still clinging to the drama?

00:23:05No offense, pretty boy,

00:23:07but if she can afford you,

00:23:08so can I.

00:23:13What's the rate?

00:23:14Whatever she paid,

00:23:15I'll give you ten times that

00:23:17if you strip for the room.

00:23:19Oh, God.

00:23:20No.

00:23:21No.

00:23:22They're dead.

00:23:23They're also dead.

00:23:24Say that again.

00:23:26You heard him.

00:23:28Ten times the rate.

00:23:30Oh, and let Uncle Tomas have a peek, too.

00:23:33Ever seen a male stripper before?

00:23:35No, no, Margaret.

00:23:36I want no part of this.

00:23:38Oh, come on.

00:23:39Don't be shy.

00:23:40Just enjoy the Bachelor show.

00:23:45You're gonna give us a twirl, pretty boy?

00:23:50Daniel.

00:23:51Margaret.

00:23:52You have no idea the line you just crossed.

00:23:54Then stop faking.

00:23:55If you pretend to be someone's wife,

00:23:57don't cry when people call you what you are.

00:23:58All right, call boy.

00:24:00Ten times, name your price.

00:24:11Watch your damn mouth.

00:24:15How dare you hit my son?

00:24:18Baby, are you all right?

00:24:20I'm gonna kill that bastard.

00:24:21Are you insane?

00:24:22Do you even know who you laid your hands on?

00:24:24I don't care who you are.

00:24:25You don't ever speak about me and my wife like that again.

00:24:29You two are dead.

00:24:31You let some call boy punch a senior candidate,

00:24:35no one will save you now.

00:24:36You just declared war on yourself.

00:24:39You have no idea who Margaret's father is.

00:24:43Is that supposed to scare us?

00:24:45Let her talk.

00:24:47I'm curious who she thinks I should be afraid of.

00:24:50My father is the vice chair of Whitmore Group.

00:24:53Even Sebastian has to respect him.

00:24:55And you two just flushed your future down the boiler basin.

00:25:07Are you out of your fucking mind?

00:25:09That seat's for Sebastian Whitmore.

00:25:10Who do you think you are?

00:25:12Exactly.

00:25:12No one else dares sit here.

00:25:14That's why it fits me.

00:25:18Tomas, you recognize the seat, don't you?

00:25:22Do you think I belong here?

00:25:25Of course, sir.

00:25:26Of course you do.

00:25:29Are you all blind?

00:25:31That chair belongs to Mr. Whitmore.

00:25:33No one sits there except him or my father.

00:25:36So how dare you park your dumpy ass there?

00:25:39Funny.

00:25:40I'm sitting and I won't move.

00:25:42Got a problem?

00:25:42You want to pretend to be a big shot?

00:25:44Fine.

00:25:45I'll give you one last chance.

00:25:48Crawl off that chair like a little dog and beg with Eleanor.

00:25:53Maybe then I'll consider not destroying your life.

00:25:57Beg you?

00:25:58You get on your knees, bark, and crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.

00:26:02That's the price for daring to challenge us.

00:26:05You hear that?

00:26:07You and your boy can bark together.

00:26:08Very romantic.

00:26:10You're playing with fire.

00:26:11No, sweetheart.

00:26:13I am the fire.

00:26:14Come on.

00:26:15Kneel.

00:26:16Three seconds.

00:26:17That's all you've got.

00:26:19One.

00:26:22You bitch!

00:26:26Margaret, please, don't.

00:26:28Get your hands off me!

00:26:30They hit me!

00:26:31You think I'm letting that slide?

00:26:33You don't understand.

00:26:34He's...

00:26:35I don't care if she's the Queen of England.

00:26:37I'm hitting that bitch!

00:26:38Margaret, you really should apologize.

00:26:42What?

00:26:46Yeah, you might want to walk this back, Miss West.

00:26:49It's not too late to apologize.

00:26:50Just think about it.

00:26:53Are you out of your minds apologizing to these nobodies?

00:26:58Yes.

00:27:00For your own good.

00:27:02Shut up.

00:27:03The only reason I ever called you uncle was because of my dad.

00:27:06Now I get humiliated, and you want me to apologize?

00:27:09I'm trying to protect you, Margaret.

00:27:11You have no idea what you're stepping into.

00:27:12Get out of my way.

00:27:13I'm calling my father.

00:27:14Let's see who ends up crawling when he gets here.

00:27:17Don't call him.

00:27:18Let her.

00:27:19I'd love to see what James West plans to do to me.

00:27:21Dad, I'm at the meeting floor.

00:27:24Some bitch just slapped me in front of everyone.

00:27:26Get down here.

00:27:27Now.

00:27:28He's on his way.

00:27:30And when he gets here, you're both done.

00:27:32Eleanor, Margaret's father, Mr. West, is second only to Sebastian in this company.

00:27:35He's coming now.

00:27:36This time, you're finished.

00:27:37Not even I can help you.

00:27:38Help them, please.

00:27:40They brought this on themselves.

00:27:43She and her boy toy need to be crushed fast.

00:27:46Well, Daniel, you don't get to save me.

00:27:50In my world, you're nothing.

00:27:52Still bluffing?

00:27:53Let's see how hard you cry when Mr. West shows up.

00:28:01Who the hell is hitting my daughter right in my company?

00:28:09Dad, thank God you're here.

00:28:10I thought this was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.

00:28:14What the hell happened here?

00:28:15It's not my fault.

00:28:16There's a woman here making a scene.

00:28:19She slapped me.

00:28:20Look.

00:28:21That's insane.

00:28:22Who the hell has the nerve to hit my daughter?

00:28:23Did you tell her who I am?

00:28:24Of course I did.

00:28:25They didn't care.

00:28:26And worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Sebastian Whitman's chair.

00:28:31It's true, vice chair.

00:28:32That woman and her man, completely out of line.

00:28:36Mr. West, actually, there's something you should...

00:28:40Shut up, you fool.

00:28:42You stood by while someone assaulted my daughter.

00:28:44in my building.

00:28:46Mr. West, please.

00:28:47You don't understand.

00:28:48That man, he's Mr. Whitwell.

00:28:50You dare bring up Mr. Whitwell.

00:28:52Dr. Prescott was hired by him.

00:28:54And this is what you allow here.

00:28:56On the very day Mr. Whitwell returns?

00:28:57No, I...

00:29:05You too.

00:29:06You're the one stirring up trouble.

00:29:08That's right.

00:29:09Him.

00:29:11He's Eleanor's fake husband.

00:29:13And she's the one who caused trouble here.

00:29:15Mr. West, my son used to date Eleanor, but that ended a long time ago.

00:29:18He's got nothing to do with any of this today.

00:29:20Relax, Dr. Preston was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.

00:29:24He won't be held responsible.

00:29:26Oh, thank you, Mr. West.

00:29:28Dear that, my dad's here.

00:29:30He runs this place.

00:29:31Right under Sebastian.

00:29:33You're finished.

00:29:35What happened to all that attitude?

00:29:37Hiding behind a chair now when a real boss is in the room?

00:29:41You really have no idea what's coming.

00:29:43You've completely lost it.

00:29:45You dragged in some random escort to play your husband,

00:29:48and now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair,

00:29:51too scared to even turn around.

00:29:52Hey, you.

00:29:53Get your ass out of that chair before this turns ugly.

00:29:56Someone turn that damn chair.

00:29:57I want to see the clown's face.

00:29:59With pleasure.

00:30:05Daniel, if I were you, I wouldn't touch that chair.

00:30:08Because once you do, your little career crumbles.

00:30:11Is that supposed to scare me?

00:30:12Just a fact.

00:30:13He's not someone you want to cross.

00:30:14My father's the vice chair of Whitmore.

00:30:17The only one outranking him is Sebastian.

00:30:20And you're telling me we should be afraid

00:30:22of your little toy boy sitting there?

00:30:25You think we're scared of the guy you found in a nightclub?

00:30:27Please.

00:30:28These two think they're running some drama box show.

00:30:31Let's be honest.

00:30:32Trash is trash, and everyone here knows it.

00:30:35Eleanor, maybe all those years of poverty fried your brain.

00:30:37You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford to afford.

00:30:40Oh, really?

00:30:41And why's that?

00:30:41Because you're a nobody.

00:30:42Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.

00:30:45Funny.

00:30:46You all love to talk about who's finished.

00:30:49But when that chair turns,

00:30:52we'll all see who's really done for.

00:30:55You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?

00:30:57You've truly lost your fucking mind since our breakup.

00:31:00Well, this is new.

00:31:01I've never had some little girl tell me my end is near.

00:31:04You've got guts.

00:31:06But guts don't save you when you pisses me off.

00:31:19Let me show you what happens when your little husband pretends his way into Whitmore.

00:31:27Right.

00:31:28Breaking their legs isn't enough.

00:31:29Better to toss them out of the country for good.

00:31:31That's exactly what I plan to do.

00:31:32Turn that damn chair around, or I'll do it myself.

00:31:35Mr. West, please.

00:31:36You can't.

00:31:37He's not just...

00:31:37Why the hell not?

00:31:39They deserve it.

00:31:40I just don't understand.

00:31:41Why is everyone so scared?

00:31:43They even asked me to apologize.

00:31:46What?

00:31:47Apologize to them?

00:31:48Well, since you're all so desperate to meet him...

00:31:52Sebastian, mind saying hello?

00:31:55Let's not keep them waiting.

00:31:58That voice.

00:32:00No, it can't be.

00:32:03Stop pretending.

00:32:05Just turn around.

00:32:19You thought that would scare me?

00:32:21I turned the chair.

00:32:22So now what?

00:32:25No.

00:32:27No way.

00:32:29You want to see me, James West?

00:32:31Mr. Whitmore.

00:32:32Dad, no need to call Mr. Whitmore.

00:32:34He'll be here any minute.

00:32:34Once he came, these two idiots were dead.

00:32:37Eleanor, this is your last chance.

00:32:40Before Mr. Whitmore arrives, beg.

00:32:44You might walk away.

00:32:45I won't beg anyone.

00:32:47But you?

00:32:48You can start practicing your apologies now.

00:32:50You!

00:32:51Stop wasting breath.

00:32:53If they want to burn, let them.

00:33:00See that, Eleanor?

00:33:01Your fantasy is over.

00:33:04My dad is here now.

00:33:06He'll...

00:33:06He'll kill you all.

00:33:08Get up, call boy.

00:33:09Before you lose your precious ass that helps you earn life.

00:33:13Shut up.

00:33:16Dad, what are you shaking?

00:33:18Oh, I get it.

00:33:20You're going to throw them out before Sebastian arrives.

00:33:22Perfect.

00:33:23Do it.

00:33:24You see that?

00:33:25My dad's hand shakes when he's pissed.

00:33:28The more it shakes, the angrier he is.

00:33:30Have you ever considered maybe he's not shaking from anger?

00:33:33Please.

00:33:34My father fears no one.

00:33:36And if he's trembling, it's just because he's about to fire every last one of you.

00:33:41You still don't realize where it sits, do you?

00:33:45Pathetic.

00:33:46You're still bragging while you're about to get kicked out.

00:33:49Keep talking.

00:33:50You're digging your own grave.

00:33:53Dad, are you done shaking yet?

00:33:56Can you deal with these two nobodies now?

00:34:01Yes.

00:34:02Yes, I'll deal with this.

00:34:05I'm dealing with you!

00:34:11Dad.

00:34:12You fool.

00:34:14Do you even know what you've done?

00:34:17Me?

00:34:18They're the ones who caused all these troubles.

00:34:21Shut it!

00:34:23Apologize to them!

00:34:24Now!

00:34:25Apologize to them?

00:34:26Mr. West.

00:34:27They just assaulted your daughter.

00:34:29Why would we apologize?

00:34:33You brainless idiots.

00:34:35Do you even know who he is?

00:34:37You can't do this.

00:34:38I'm a PhD.

00:34:38I just made partner at Whitmore.

00:34:41A PhD, huh?

00:34:49What the hell are you doing?

00:34:50This is my son's celebration!

00:34:52There is no celebration!

00:34:53Not without him because...

00:34:55That's Sebastian, CEO of Whitmore Group.

00:35:01What happened?

00:35:03Mr. Whitmore,

00:35:04I apologize for my idiot kid.

00:35:07Please forgive us.

00:35:08Mr. Whitmore,

00:35:09please forgive us.

00:35:17Daniel!

00:35:18That man!

00:35:20Is he really Sebastian Whitwild?

00:35:22I don't know.

00:35:23But Eleanor claimed to be married to that guy.

00:35:26That man, Sebastian, how...

00:35:27That man was just a gigolo hired by her.

00:35:30That can't be Sebastian.

00:35:31It just can't.

00:35:32Dad, you're kidding me, right?

00:35:33Tell me this is some kind of sick test.

00:35:35You idiot!

00:35:36You've ruined the West's name!

00:35:37Get on your knees and beg Mr. Whitmore for forgiveness now!

00:35:43So, he...

00:35:43He's Sebastian Whitmore?

00:35:45Please, just listen to me.

00:35:46I can explain.

00:35:47You're lucky I don't lay my hands on a woman.

00:35:49But this isn't over.

00:35:50James, this is the heir you've raised.

00:35:52Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is.

00:35:55Mr. Whitmore, I beg you, she's young, stupid.

00:35:58She doesn't represent me.

00:35:59You're right.

00:35:59She doesn't.

00:36:00But you do.

00:36:01And that's the fired now.

00:36:03No!

00:36:03Please, Mr. Whitmore, don't...

00:36:05So now I get it, Eleanor.

00:36:08No wonder you had no fear, because you had Mr. Whitmore behind you the whole time.

00:36:12You must think you're an untouchable big shot now, huh?

00:36:17No, you've got it wrong.

00:36:19I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.

00:36:21I'm untouchable because I always was.

00:36:24Seven years, Daniel.

00:36:26And you never once asked who I was.

00:36:28You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving.

00:36:32I got the pros, Scott.

00:36:33We fast-tracked you for talent.

00:36:35Yes, your academic record is impressive.

00:36:36But here at Whitmore, we hire for integrity.

00:36:39And you've failed that test.

00:36:41Your offer is dead.

00:36:42Wait!

00:36:43Mrs. Whitmore, please.

00:36:45Please don't do this.

00:36:46My son's worked his whole life for this.

00:36:48Don't throw him out.

00:36:49My decision is final.

00:36:51No amount of begging will change it.

00:36:54And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Preston.

00:36:57I...

00:37:00I...

00:37:01Sebastian Whitmore, you've gone too far.

00:37:05Adam Whitmore.

00:37:08Grandma.

00:37:10Don't you dare call me that.

00:37:12Not when you defy the family like this.

00:37:18You've outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.

00:37:20Grandmother told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell.

00:37:22And what do you do?

00:37:22Ghost us, then stroke back in here.

00:37:24Start firing people.

00:37:26About the engagement.

00:37:27You forget who runs this place.

00:37:29Sure, you hold the CEO title.

00:37:31But it was Grandma who built Whitmore Group from the ground up.

00:37:34And as for Dr. Prescott and Mr. West,

00:37:36you don't get to fire them.

00:37:39You hear that, Daniel?

00:37:41You're not getting fired.

00:37:43But who is that guy?

00:37:45Why is he talking back to Whitmore?

00:37:48That's Winston, Sebastian's big brother.

00:37:50And Grandma, she favors Winston over Sebastian.

00:37:53Winston, don't overstep.

00:37:54I am still the acting CEO.

00:37:56Staffing decisions are mine.

00:37:58Not if Grandma says otherwise, little brother.

00:38:01James has given decades to this company.

00:38:03His termination, not happening.

00:38:06Thank you, Madam Whitmore.

00:38:08Thank you.

00:38:09Thank you for standing up for me.

00:38:11And as for him, he stays.

00:38:17You don't have the authority to touch him.

00:38:19But Grandma, I...

00:38:20The Thunder Circle funds the world's top scholars.

00:38:22Their chairman, Lady Thunder, is arriving tomorrow.

00:38:25We must secure her favor.

00:38:26And Dr. Prescott, he's exactly the kind of golden boy she's looking for.

00:38:28So, he stays.

00:38:30For Whitmore.

00:38:31Got it?

00:38:34Yes.

00:38:35Then, focus on what matters.

00:38:37Marrying Sylvia Caldwell.

00:38:39That marriage locks us into the Thunder Circle.

00:38:42No, I won't marry Sylvia.

00:38:43And I'm already...

00:38:46My decision's final.

00:38:48No one's changing it.

00:38:54No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.

00:38:58He helped me once.

00:39:00I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.

00:39:09Lady Thunder.

00:39:11Whitmore's proposal is approved.

00:39:13We'll go public at tomorrow's gala.

00:39:18Whitmore will be our first official U.S. partner.

00:39:21Perfect.

00:39:22Make sure it's loud.

00:39:24I'm going to give my husband a surprise.

00:39:32Sebastian, I know you're upset.

00:39:34But marrying Sylvia connects us to the Caldwells.

00:39:37And through them, the Thunder Circle.

00:39:39That's the future.

00:39:40So you'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else?

00:39:43I believe in building it myself.

00:39:45Not chasing shortcuts.

00:39:47Shortcut.

00:39:47It's called strategy.

00:39:50If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?

00:39:55Then I disagree, madam.

00:39:56That's not strategies.

00:39:57That's fear.

00:39:58You can't force Sebastian to marry someone else.

00:40:01What the hell is she doing?

00:40:06Oh, God, it's her again.

00:40:08Doesn't she get tired of humiliating herself?

00:40:11Who let the trash out?

00:40:13Someone take her back to the curb.

00:40:15Who is she?

00:40:17Madam Whitmore.

00:40:19That's Eleanor, my ex.

00:40:21She stalked me here.

00:40:23Then she lashed on to Sebastian,

00:40:25pretending to be his wife just to dodge your engagement plans.

00:40:28Shut up, Daniel.

00:40:29One more word, and I will break your jaw.

00:40:32See that, mother?

00:40:33He's panicking.

00:40:35Madam, they're lying to your face.

00:40:38That girl, Eleanor, she's just using Sebastian,

00:40:41trying to save herself from trouble.

00:40:45I guess that's just their scheme.

00:40:47Sebastian is using this little act to get out of marrying Sylvia.

00:40:53Yes, Sebastian and I started as pretend.

00:40:56But we're not pretending anymore.

00:41:01What are you playing at?

00:41:09Sebastian Whitfield, will you marry me for real?

00:41:15You've got to be shitting me.

00:41:19Are you out of your mind?

00:41:21You're doubling down on this circus?

00:41:24That's hilarious.

00:41:26Do you think he will marry you?

00:41:28You think you can take advantage now?

00:41:29Even if Mr. Whitmore's in trouble,

00:41:31that doesn't mean he'd stoop to marrying someone like you.

00:41:35Sebastian, if you say yes to her now, you lose everything.

00:41:39Do you even know what you're doing?

00:41:43Of course.

00:41:44You proposed first.

00:41:46I'm just returning the favor.

00:41:47What's the matter, Sebastian?

00:41:49Scared?

00:41:50Eleanor, stop.

00:41:51When I proposed to you,

00:41:53I still had everything.

00:41:54You turned me down,

00:41:56and now that I'm in trouble, you say yes?

00:41:58Exactly.

00:41:59Because I'm not saying yes to your title or fortune.

00:42:03I'm saying yes to you.

00:42:05Just as you are.

00:42:06Just as you are.

00:42:07Then, Eleanor, I say yes, too.

00:42:09I will marry you.

00:42:16There.

00:42:17She's my wife now.

00:42:18Anyone got a problem with that?

00:42:19No.

00:42:21No.

00:42:22No.

00:42:25No.

00:42:26No.

00:42:28No.

00:42:31Well done, Sebastian.

00:42:33You think marrying this random girl

00:42:36gives you a fight against the family?

00:42:37I see now my words mean nothing to you anymore.

00:42:41So I'll make myself clear.

00:42:43I am suspending Sebastian from all duties

00:42:45as CEO with more group.

00:42:52Grandma, you can't be serious.

00:42:57I've already secured the investment

00:43:00from the Thunder, sir.

00:43:02Stop calling me that.

00:43:04The moment you proposed to that woman,

00:43:06you made your choice over the family.

00:43:08And this is only at the beginning.

00:43:10Tomorrow, there'll be a gala to welcome Lady Thunder.

00:43:12Our family has secured an invite

00:43:13only because of Sylvia.

00:43:15And you betrayed her?

00:43:16Sebastian, you will attend and pacify Sylvia.

00:43:19That'll be your last chance.

00:43:21If you fail that,

00:43:23you pack your things and leave the family.

00:43:26I know you've been chasing an investment

00:43:27behind our backs.

00:43:28Well, bad news.

00:43:29Sylvia has promised me that unless you marry her,

00:43:31there won't be a single cent from the Thunder Circle.

00:43:33That's impossible.

00:43:35I already got confirmation from the Thunder Circle.

00:43:37The deal is done.

00:43:38A confirmation.

00:43:39The words are cheap.

00:43:41Unless you've got a signed contract in your hand,

00:43:44you've got nothing.

00:43:45Mr. Whitmore.

00:43:48The Circle hasn't sent over any signed paperwork yet.

00:43:53See, I'll enjoy watching you fall, little brother.

00:43:56And you, girl,

00:43:57trying to steal Sylvia's fiancée,

00:43:59you'll see what hell you've gotten into.

00:44:05Oh, and you, doctor,

00:44:07you'll be joining us at tomorrow's gala.

00:44:11Did you hear that, Daniel?

00:44:13You're invited.

00:44:14a gala that only invites

00:44:18billionaires.

00:44:19That's because your Whitmore recommendation

00:44:21comes from the Thunder Circle.

00:44:23Wait, what?

00:44:25Comes from what?

00:44:27Is that true?

00:44:28The Thunder Circle.

00:44:29They gave my son the letter.

00:44:30Yes.

00:44:31Sylvia says Lady Thunder

00:44:33has a soft spot for polished scholars.

00:44:35Tomorrow's your chance.

00:44:36Play it right,

00:44:37and who knows,

00:44:38perhaps she'll take a life into you.

00:44:41Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.

00:44:43I will go.

00:44:45Good.

00:44:46Then it's settled.

00:44:51The Thunder Circle gave us their word

00:44:53they wouldn't back out.

00:44:54Parker,

00:44:55go check that out now.

00:44:59Relax.

00:45:00I said they'd invest in you.

00:45:01They still will.

00:45:04Really?

00:45:05You think some backroom nobody like you

00:45:09could land capital from the Thunder Circle?

00:45:16We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.

00:45:19And just to be clear,

00:45:21the Thunder Circle

00:45:22will never choose you.

00:45:24You seriously think someone like you

00:45:26matters to the Thunder Circle?

00:45:28You're not invited,

00:45:29but we are.

00:45:31You'll find out tomorrow

00:45:32whether I matter.

00:45:33Tomorrow?

00:45:35You've stolen Sylvia

00:45:36called to his husband.

00:45:38Be glad if you're still

00:45:39breathing by morning.

00:45:41If you've got even a shred of sense left,

00:45:44get on a plane tonight.

00:45:45Stop wasting your last hours

00:45:47chasing your gold digger dream.

00:45:49Oh,

00:45:50so I'm,

00:45:51I'm a gold digger now?

00:45:52Of course.

00:45:54You're clinging to Sebastian

00:45:55like he's your lifeline,

00:45:57but even he can't protect you now.

00:45:59Forget it, Mom.

00:46:00Talking to her is a waste of time.

00:46:02But if I do end up

00:46:03impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow,

00:46:05maybe I'll toss you a favor.

00:46:09Keep you alive.

00:46:12Let's go.

00:46:16I hope tomorrow,

00:46:17when you all realize

00:46:19I'm the CEO of the Circle,

00:46:20you still feel this high.

00:46:24Don't listen to them.

00:46:26I'll do whatever it takes

00:46:27to protect you tomorrow.

00:46:29Relax, Mr. Whitmore.

00:46:30I've got this.

00:46:32Tomorrow at the gala,

00:46:33everything will be handled.

00:46:35Yes, ma'am.

00:46:36I get it.

00:46:37You're the dangerous one.

00:46:39But Eleanor,

00:46:40the Thunder Circle,

00:46:41the Caldwell family,

00:46:42they're not people you can handle.

00:46:43So what?

00:46:44So,

00:46:45tomorrow,

00:46:46I'll sign the deal.

00:46:48I'll secure everything.

00:46:50Because keeping you safe

00:46:51is my job now.

00:46:53Oh, wow.

00:46:54What a hero.

00:46:55What happened to the cocky CEO

00:46:57who begged me to marry him

00:46:58on the plane?

00:46:58Come on,

00:46:59that was so embarrassing.

00:47:00The man on that plane

00:47:00no longer exists,

00:47:02all right?

00:47:07So,

00:47:07my wife,

00:47:09can we move to the next step?

00:47:10Let's get married.

00:47:14Let's get married.

00:47:16Let's get married.

00:47:31Lady Thunder.

00:47:34How are the preparations

00:47:35for tomorrow's gala?

00:47:37everything's ready.

00:47:38Everything's ready.

00:47:39Media's locked.

00:47:40The billion dollar contract

00:47:41with Whitmore is finalized.

00:47:43Good.

00:47:43But remember,

00:47:44this isn't for the Whitmore family.

00:47:46It's for Sebastian.

00:47:47Make sure the funds

00:47:47land only in his hands.

00:47:49Understood.

00:47:49And Lady Thunder?

00:47:50Two allies have requested a meeting.

00:47:52They're waiting outside.

00:47:52Shall I send them in?

00:47:53Bring them in.

00:47:55Lady Thunder.

00:47:58So,

00:48:00how have you been?

00:48:00Your business, good?

00:48:01Yes, Thunder Lady,

00:48:02and thank you.

00:48:03Your support during my toughest years

00:48:04meant everything.

00:48:05My weapons empire

00:48:06now spans five continents.

00:48:07Impressive.

00:48:08And you, Prince Amir?

00:48:09I'm doing well.

00:48:10Without your backing,

00:48:11I wouldn't be where I am,

00:48:12leading my country with stability.

00:48:14That's good to hear.

00:48:16Will I see both of you

00:48:17at the gala tomorrow?

00:48:18Of course.

00:48:19Whatever you need,

00:48:20Lady Thunder,

00:48:21just say the word.

00:48:22I'll back you fully.

00:48:23I'm afraid I can't attend.

00:48:24Things have grown tense

00:48:25between the Caldwells and me.

00:48:26What happened?

00:48:27In the past few years,

00:48:28they've been expanding aggressively,

00:48:30crushing competitors

00:48:31left and right.

00:48:31I thought they were acting

00:48:32with your approval,

00:48:33so I didn't intervene.

00:48:34No.

00:48:34I never authorized any of that.

00:48:36I underestimated

00:48:38how far they'd go,

00:48:38but it ends now.

00:48:40They'll answer

00:48:41for everything they've done.

00:48:42Then tomorrow should be

00:48:44entertaining.

00:48:45Let's shake the world together.

00:48:54Sebastian.

00:49:05Hey, just checking in.

00:49:07Are you free tomorrow?

00:49:08What's going on?

00:49:09See, the gala's tomorrow.

00:49:11I had a few dresses made for you.

00:49:13A few?

00:49:14You make it sound like

00:49:15you are hosting a fashion week for me.

00:49:17Look, as your husband,

00:49:19I must make sure

00:49:19you're the most stunning woman

00:49:20in the room.

00:49:21Is that so?

00:49:23or is it just so you can

00:49:24make your enemies

00:49:27jealous?

00:49:29Who says I can't do both?

00:49:37I've got to go.

00:49:38We'll talk tomorrow.

00:49:39Okay, good night.

00:49:41Mr. Whitbear,

00:49:41Lady Thunder's currently

00:49:42in a closed meeting.

00:49:43She won't be seeing anyone tonight.

00:49:46Mr. Lee,

00:49:46I just need to confirm

00:49:47about the investment.

00:49:48You'll get your answer

00:49:49at the gala.

00:49:52Thank you, Mr. Lee.

00:50:11Today is the gala.

00:50:12Sylvia has introduced us

00:50:14to pick up our clothes

00:50:14from his brother, Ravine.

00:50:16He owns the most exclusive

00:50:17boutique in the city.

00:50:18Celebrities beg

00:50:19for these designs

00:50:20and still leave empty-handed.

00:50:23Unbelievable!

00:50:24Mr. Caldwell,

00:50:25you really shouldn't have.

00:50:26It's worth every penny

00:50:27if it gets Lady Thunder's attention.

00:50:29Just pick out anything

00:50:30you want in the store.

00:50:31Oh, thank you.

00:50:32And your sister.

00:50:33Dr. Prescott,

00:50:34you will be representing

00:50:35both the Boe

00:50:35of the Whitmore

00:50:36and Caldwell families

00:50:37at the gala.

00:50:38Help us win

00:50:38Lady Thunder's favor.

00:50:40Absolutely.

00:50:41That's my boy.

00:50:42Ph.D.

00:50:43Perfect.

00:50:44And maybe

00:50:44about to become

00:50:46Lady Thunder's future partner.

00:50:47My boy,

00:50:48let's be honest.

00:50:49Next to Lady Thunder,

00:50:50that Eleanor girl,

00:50:51even Margaret,

00:50:52they're nothing.

00:50:53If she notices you

00:50:54and you end up marrying her,

00:50:56you'd rule.

00:50:59You've got to be kidding me.

00:51:05Eleanor.

00:51:09Well, well.

00:51:10Look who thinks

00:51:11she's someone now.

00:51:12You've got some nerve

00:51:13showing your face here,

00:51:14Eleanor.

00:51:15Watch your mouth.

00:51:17My wife can go

00:51:18wherever she damn well pleases.

00:51:21Sebastian brought you here

00:51:22to play dress-up?

00:51:23Adorable.

00:51:24Too bad this dress

00:51:25costs more than

00:51:26what you make in a year.

00:51:27Who is she, Sebastian?

00:51:29I thought you were still

00:51:30with my sister.

00:51:30And you are?

00:51:32You seriously don't know?

00:51:34He's Sylvia Caldwell's brother.

00:51:36How shameless.

00:51:36You already stole

00:51:37the Caldwell man

00:51:38and now you're shopping

00:51:39like you belong here?

00:51:40Wait, stole what?

00:51:42Oh, Raveen,

00:51:43you haven't heard?

00:51:44That gold dragger

00:51:45conned Sebastian

00:51:46into marrying her.

00:51:47She's pretending

00:51:48to be Mrs. Whitmore now.

00:51:50What?

00:51:51Married?

00:51:52Sebastian,

00:51:53you tossed my sister aside

00:51:54for this cheap whore?

00:51:56Watch your mouth.

00:51:57Whatever arrangement

00:51:57I had with Sylvia,

00:51:58it's over.

00:51:59I'll deal with her.

00:52:00But you,

00:52:01you never get to

00:52:03insult my wife.

00:52:04Your wife?

00:52:05In my store?

00:52:06I have every right

00:52:07to throw both of you out.

00:52:08Her first.

00:52:09Oh, really?

00:52:10Then let me make it easy

00:52:11for you.

00:52:12We'll take everything.

00:52:13Every dress,

00:52:14every necklace,

00:52:15every damn shoe

00:52:16in this place.

00:52:17And after tonight,

00:52:19this store

00:52:20will belong

00:52:21to me.

00:52:25Wow, Eleanor.

00:52:27What did it take?

00:52:28Two days to hook him?

00:52:29But seriously,

00:52:31Sebastian,

00:52:31giving up Sylvia

00:52:33for her?

00:52:33What's the appeal?

00:52:35Maybe

00:52:35she can perform

00:52:36better in bed now?

00:52:38Shut the hell up!

00:52:39You don't get to speak

00:52:40about my wife

00:52:41ever!

00:52:42Mr. Whitmore,

00:52:43that is enough!

00:52:44You're not even

00:52:45CEO anymore!

00:52:46Just because I'm not

00:52:47in the chair

00:52:48doesn't mean

00:52:49I'm powerless.

00:52:53Please!

00:52:54My son has a PhD.

00:52:56One day,

00:52:57he's going to

00:52:58surpass you.

00:52:59Surpass me?

00:53:00My son, Daniel.

00:53:01He's going to marry

00:53:02the most powerful

00:53:02woman alive,

00:53:04Lady Thunder herself!

00:53:05I'm sorry,

00:53:06what?

00:53:07So, regret it now?

00:53:09You left me,

00:53:10son, and now

00:53:11he's about to marry

00:53:12the woman who

00:53:12could crush you both.

00:53:16Actually,

00:53:17you're not entirely wrong.

00:53:21Daniel,

00:53:21your mother thinks

00:53:22you're going to

00:53:22marry Lady Thunder.

00:53:24Maybe that was

00:53:24possible once,

00:53:27but not anymore.

00:53:28Who the hell

00:53:28are you to say that?

00:53:30Because I am

00:53:30Lady Thunder,

00:53:31chairwoman of

00:53:32the Thunder Circle.

00:53:32And you?

00:53:33You've lost the right

00:53:34to even dream

00:53:35of standing beside me.

00:53:42You?

00:53:42Lady Thunder?

00:53:43Oh, please.

00:53:45Someone give her

00:53:45an Oscar.

00:53:46Hear that?

00:53:47This lunatic

00:53:48actually thinks

00:53:48she runs the

00:53:49Thunder Circle

00:53:50and decides

00:53:50my son's future.

00:53:52Eleanor,

00:53:53Lady Thunder's

00:53:53not someone

00:53:54we joke about.

00:53:54You can't-

00:53:55You bitch!

00:53:55You break into

00:53:56my store,

00:53:57and now you're

00:53:57spouting delusions?

00:53:59Adam,

00:54:00buy off every

00:54:01Caldenwell boutique

00:54:02worldwide.

00:54:03I want this brand

00:54:04under my name.

00:54:05Do you even know

00:54:05what it costs

00:54:06to buy my store?

00:54:07Eleanor,

00:54:08I get it.

00:54:09The breakup

00:54:09scrambled your head.

00:54:11But pretending

00:54:11to be Thunder Lady,

00:54:13you'll get

00:54:13Sebastian killed.

00:54:14So in your world,

00:54:15a woman like me

00:54:16could never be her?

00:54:17Even if by some miracle,

00:54:18you clawed your way up,

00:54:19you'd still be nothing.

00:54:22Sucking men dry.

00:54:23That is what you are good at.

00:54:25Enough of this, Chris.

00:54:25Call security

00:54:26before she drags us all down.

00:54:29Touch her,

00:54:30and I'll destroy you.

00:54:32You realize what you're doing?

00:54:33You're crossing a line.

00:54:34You think she's worth it?

00:54:35Side with her now,

00:54:36and you're both done.

00:54:37The Thunder Circle

00:54:38will eat you alive.

00:54:41Sylvia?

00:54:42Yeah, I'm dealing with what?

00:54:44They bought it?

00:54:46The Thunder Circle

00:54:47just acquired

00:54:47every global

00:54:48Caldwell boutique?

00:54:49What?

00:54:49That's not possible!

00:54:51And Eleanor

00:54:53is the new owner?

00:54:58No.

00:54:59No, this...

00:55:00this has to be

00:55:00some kind of mistake.

00:55:01There's no way

00:55:02that street rat

00:55:03owns this place.

00:55:04It's a scam.

00:55:05A trick!

00:55:06Well, Raveen,

00:55:08looks like this store

00:55:09belongs to me now.

00:55:11You're no longer

00:55:12welcome here.

00:55:13Leave

00:55:13before I have

00:55:14the guards escort you out.

00:55:16What?

00:55:17This is insane!

00:55:19You crazy bitch!

00:55:20How could you do this?

00:55:21Say one more word,

00:55:22your name will be

00:55:22wiped off the fashion world

00:55:24like chalk in the rain.

00:55:25Wanna try me?

00:55:27No.

00:55:31Guards,

00:55:32remove them.

00:55:34No, you can't do this!

00:55:40Daniel,

00:55:42could she really be

00:55:44Thunder Lady?

00:55:46No, absolutely not!

00:55:49I've known her for years!

00:55:51There's no way

00:55:52she could run

00:55:52the Thunder Circle!

00:55:54Then how the hell

00:55:54did she buy my store?

00:55:56You still don't get it?

00:55:58That nanny work

00:55:59she did in Africa,

00:56:00that's where she met

00:56:01Lady Thunder,

00:56:02who just happens

00:56:03to run a charity

00:56:03there too.

00:56:04So,

00:56:05you're saying

00:56:06she used Lady Thunder's

00:56:07sympathy

00:56:08to get this?

00:56:09Exactly.

00:56:11She's just a side piece

00:56:13with great timing.

00:56:14But I'll expose

00:56:15everything.

00:56:17Tomorrow,

00:56:19her little luck

00:56:20ends.

00:56:24Eleanor,

00:56:26you're not seriously

00:56:27telling me

00:56:27you're the real

00:56:28Lady Thunder?

00:56:29I can't tell

00:56:30Sebastian everything,

00:56:31not yet.

00:56:32Not until the gala.

00:56:36Back when I was

00:56:37working in Africa,

00:56:38I met her.

00:56:39You met Lady Thunder?

00:56:40Yes,

00:56:41she visited

00:56:42one of our shelters.

00:56:42We spoke,

00:56:43so,

00:56:45I reached out

00:56:46to her just now,

00:56:46asked for help.

00:56:47Why didn't you

00:56:48tell me you knew

00:56:48her before?

00:56:51Look,

00:56:52I'm sorry,

00:56:53I...

00:56:53That's amazing.

00:56:54If Thunder Lady's

00:56:55on your side,

00:56:56then Sylvia wouldn't

00:56:57dare lay a hand

00:56:57on you tomorrow.

00:57:01Sounds like you

00:57:02really don't want

00:57:03to see me get hurt.

00:57:04Of course not.

00:57:05You're my wife.

00:57:07You stood by me

00:57:08when everything

00:57:09fell apart.

00:57:10So tomorrow,

00:57:12I'll do whatever

00:57:13it takes to protect you.

00:57:14That's my only job now.

00:57:16That's the first time

00:57:17a man's ever

00:57:17said that to me.

00:57:23But tomorrow,

00:57:24once we walk

00:57:25into that gala,

00:57:25it's official.

00:57:26Public?

00:57:27You're not afraid

00:57:27of that?

00:57:29I've been dying

00:57:30to tell the world

00:57:30you're mine.

00:57:37Winston, congratulations.

00:57:40Everyone knows by now

00:57:41your mother has

00:57:42Sebastian from his

00:57:43position.

00:57:44That makes you

00:57:45the next in line

00:57:46for CEO,

00:57:47doesn't it?

00:57:48Well,

00:57:49Sebastian was never

00:57:50CEO material.

00:57:53My mother saw it.

00:57:55So did the board.

00:57:57Winston,

00:57:59you've got the support

00:58:00of the Caldwell family.

00:58:01Their ties to the circle

00:58:02aren't small.

00:58:04And tonight,

00:58:05I heard Lady Thunder

00:58:07will announce the person

00:58:08who gets the

00:58:09billion dollar investment.

00:58:11And you,

00:58:12Whitmore's golden boy,

00:58:13look like you've

00:58:14already locked it in.

00:58:25You've got a lot

00:58:26of nerve

00:58:27showing up here,

00:58:27Sebastian.

00:58:32This is the

00:58:33Thunder Circle's

00:58:34return gala.

00:58:35As a member

00:58:36of the Whitmore,

00:58:37I have every right

00:58:38to be here.

00:58:40And you'd better

00:58:40be at Sylvia's suite

00:58:42instead of parading

00:58:42around like you still

00:58:43belong at the top.

00:58:45And you,

00:58:45what kind of gutter

00:58:46trash thinks she can

00:58:48just show up here?

00:58:50Eleanor is my wife.

00:58:52You don't speak

00:58:52to her like that.

00:58:53Wife?

00:58:55What?

00:58:55You said that out loud.

00:58:58Hey, everyone!

00:59:00Gather round.

00:59:01I've got a joke for you.

00:59:03This man,

00:59:04my brother,

00:59:04was once the acting

00:59:05CEO of the Whitmore Group.

00:59:07Born into privilege,

00:59:08he could have married Sylvia

00:59:09and joined the powerful

00:59:09Caldwell family.

00:59:10But instead,

00:59:11he married her.

00:59:12A gold digger.

00:59:14and he calls her

00:59:15his wife?

00:59:16Tell me,

00:59:17isn't that hilarious?

00:59:19Honestly,

00:59:20Sebastian used to be

00:59:21a force.

00:59:22Now he's just another

00:59:23doughy man

00:59:24who fell for the

00:59:25cheap whore.

00:59:27And he even offended

00:59:29the Caldwells.

00:59:30He's so dead now.

00:59:35You hear that,

00:59:36Sebastian?

00:59:37Tell me.

00:59:37Doesn't that make you

00:59:38pathetic?

00:59:39Shut your mouth

00:59:39or I'll break that

00:59:40smug little jaw of yours.

00:59:42Do it!

00:59:43If I were you,

00:59:43I'd go crawl back to

00:59:44Sylvia,

00:59:45beg for scraps.

00:59:46And as for this joke

00:59:47you call a wife,

00:59:49I'll deal with her first.

00:59:50I'd love to see which

00:59:51idiot thinks they can

00:59:52deal with me here.

00:59:55Don't you dare

00:59:56run your mouth!

01:00:00You bitch!

01:00:04Just come to me,

01:00:05Winston.

01:00:10You bastard!

01:00:12I'm your brother!

01:00:12And you're letting

01:00:13that bitch humiliate me

01:00:15in front of everyone?

01:00:16Let him go,

01:00:17Sebastian.

01:00:17I'm curious how far

01:00:18he wants to go.

01:00:19Isn't she just some

01:00:20nobody?

01:00:21Where'd she get the guts?

01:00:22Because she's riding

01:00:23Sebastian's coattails.

01:00:24But once he's out,

01:00:26she's over.

01:00:26Sebastian,

01:00:27you've humiliated

01:00:28our family.

01:00:29And you've chosen

01:00:30this woman

01:00:31over your blood!

01:00:32Fine!

01:00:33As of this moment,

01:00:34I exile you

01:00:35from the Whitmore family!

01:00:37You don't have

01:00:38the authority

01:00:39to exile me

01:00:39from Whitmore.

01:00:42He does not,

01:00:44but I do.

01:00:53Grandma.

01:00:54Sebastian,

01:00:55I'll ask you

01:00:55one last time.

01:00:56Are you going to

01:00:58marry Sylvia?

01:01:00No, Grandmother.

01:01:02I won't.

01:01:03I've never loved her.

01:01:05I didn't ask

01:01:06if you love her.

01:01:07I asked...

01:01:10will you marry her?

01:01:14No.

01:01:15And I won't divorce

01:01:16Eleanor.

01:01:17You'd throw away

01:01:18your family's future

01:01:20for this useless woman?

01:01:22Even if you are

01:01:23my grandmother,

01:01:24you don't get

01:01:25to insult my wife.

01:01:26And do you really believe

01:01:28marrying into the Caldwell family

01:01:29will elevate us?

01:01:31of course I do.

01:01:33What are you trying

01:01:34to say?

01:01:35The Caldwells say

01:01:36merge,

01:01:37but we both know

01:01:38what they want.

01:01:39They want our assets,

01:01:40our name.

01:01:42And when they're done

01:01:43bleeding us dry,

01:01:44Whitford will be nothing.

01:01:45We cannot let that happen.

01:01:47And we can't trust Sylvia!

01:01:52No wonder Sebastian's

01:01:53a CEO.

01:01:54Sharp instincts.

01:01:55Looks like I picked

01:01:56the right man.

01:01:57Grandma, don't listen to him.

01:01:59Sylvia promised.

01:02:00If Sebastian agrees,

01:02:02the Caldwells will bring us

01:02:02straight into the

01:02:03Thunder Circle's inner core.

01:02:04You're sure?

01:02:06Absolutely.

01:02:07That's what tonight

01:02:07is all about.

01:02:08Sylvia's on her way now.

01:02:09Besides Lady Thunder,

01:02:10she's the centerpiece

01:02:11of this gala.

01:02:12If we cross her,

01:02:13we lose everything.

01:02:14You're right.

01:02:16We can't afford

01:02:17to offend the Caldwells now.

01:02:18You hear that?

01:02:20You know what's at stake.

01:02:23What the hell

01:02:24are you laughing at?

01:02:25All of this.

01:02:26You're ready to sell

01:02:27Sebastian off for a shot

01:02:29at winning Sylvia's attention?

01:02:31And you call that strategy?

01:02:32You're sniffing

01:02:33the wrong trail.

01:02:34What's that supposed to mean?

01:02:36It means if you're looking

01:02:38for investment

01:02:39from the Thunder Circle,

01:02:40you don't need

01:02:41the Caldwells.

01:02:42You need me.

01:02:44What are you saying?

01:02:46Don't be ridiculous!

01:02:48Even a rat

01:02:49at the Thunder Circle

01:02:50has more value

01:02:51than you.

01:02:52She's out of her mind.

01:02:53The Thunder Circle

01:02:54is untouchable.

01:02:55How could someone

01:02:56like her

01:02:57say that?

01:02:58You look down on me

01:02:59because you have

01:03:00no idea

01:03:01who I really am.

01:03:02But once you find out,

01:03:04you'll be the ones

01:03:05kneeling.

01:03:07Then prove it.

01:03:08But if you're lying,

01:03:10you know the price.

01:03:11I am.

01:03:15This isn't about her lies.

01:03:17She's dragging down

01:03:18the entire Whitmore legacy.

01:03:23Madam Whitmore,

01:03:24you may not know,

01:03:26yesterday,

01:03:26Eleanor and Sebastian

01:03:28aggressively acquired

01:03:29every Ravine Caldwell's boutique.

01:03:32Sebastian,

01:03:33is that true?

01:03:34The boutiques were taken over

01:03:35by Lady Thunder.

01:03:36Eleanor just

01:03:37asked her for help.

01:03:39What?

01:03:40How could she possibly know?

01:03:42Because she played

01:03:42the charity card.

01:03:44Years in Africa,

01:03:45nanny kids,

01:03:46it was all to gain

01:03:47the Lady Thunder's favor.

01:03:48Exactly.

01:03:49No wonder she seduced

01:03:50Sebastian,

01:03:51turned him against

01:03:52his own family.

01:03:53She's made a career

01:03:54out of clinging

01:03:55to powerful people.

01:03:56She's dangerous.

01:03:57What a conniving parasite.

01:03:59You've offended

01:04:00the Caldwell family's heir,

01:04:02and now you're trying

01:04:03to drag us down

01:04:04with you?

01:04:04You've ruined

01:04:05our alliance!

01:04:06And now you show up here

01:04:08crashing the Thunder Circle's

01:04:09gala?

01:04:10We should make her

01:04:11crawl for forgiveness!

01:04:12The one who had been

01:04:13trying to crush you

01:04:14is the Caldwell.

01:04:15They should beg

01:04:15for forgiveness.

01:04:17You arrogant lunatic!

01:04:18You think you can

01:04:19talk shit about Caldwells?

01:04:21I'm just stating facts.

01:04:24You miserable.

01:04:25Facts!

01:04:26Huh?

01:04:32That's Sylvia Caldwell.

01:04:33Things are about

01:04:34to get ugly.

01:04:35Eleanor's finished.

01:04:36No one crosses

01:04:37the Caldwells

01:04:38and walk away.

01:04:41So that's the famous

01:04:42Caldwell heiress?

01:04:44My son,

01:04:45marrying her

01:04:45might not be

01:04:46the worst thing.

01:04:47Mom!

01:04:48All right, all right.

01:04:49My son is made

01:04:51for Lady Thunder.

01:04:52That's someone

01:04:52you deserve.

01:04:54Sylvia, thank God

01:04:55you're here.

01:04:55Seriously, Winston?

01:04:57One girl and you

01:04:58crumble?

01:04:58Pathetic.

01:04:59Move!

01:05:01So, Eleanor,

01:05:03first you steal my man,

01:05:04then you get our stores

01:05:05and fire my brother.

01:05:07Tell me,

01:05:07are you fearless

01:05:08or just an idiot?

01:05:09Why do I have to be either?

01:05:10Are you that rattled?

01:05:11Good.

01:05:12Let's see how brave

01:05:13you are.

01:05:16Sylvia, don't...

01:05:17Sebastian,

01:05:18you're my fiancé

01:05:19and you're defending her?

01:05:20I never agreed

01:05:21to marry you, Sylvia.

01:05:22I came here tonight

01:05:23to talk,

01:05:23to build something better.

01:05:25Better?

01:05:25You call tearing down

01:05:27our family's legacy

01:05:28better?

01:05:29Fine.

01:05:31You want something better?

01:05:34Neil,

01:05:35both of you,

01:05:37beg me for it.

01:05:42Sylvia, that's enough!

01:05:44Enough?

01:05:45I've barely started.

01:05:47By the time

01:05:48tonight's return gala ends,

01:05:50Whitmore won't even exist.

01:05:52Mrs. Caldwell,

01:05:54you can't do this.

01:05:56You promised to back

01:05:57our rise into the

01:05:58Thunder Circle.

01:05:59And didn't you promise

01:06:00Sebastian would marry me?

01:06:02Seems we're all

01:06:03breaking promises tonight.

01:06:04You hear that?

01:06:05Neil, marry her!

01:06:06Or you drag this family

01:06:07to ruin!

01:06:08Do you want to doom us all,

01:06:11you ungrateful bastard?

01:06:13What's the matter

01:06:14with you two, Sebastian?

01:06:16Too proud to kneel?

01:06:17Looks like you're the one

01:06:18who should kneel now.

01:06:25Oh my god!

01:06:26She's insane!

01:06:27She's totally insane!

01:06:33Sylvia, are you hurt?

01:06:35Do I look fine to you, idiot?

01:06:38You bitch!

01:06:40No one humiliates me like this!

01:06:42First time for everything.

01:06:43You'll get used to it.

01:06:46Kill her!

01:06:50This woman just desecrated

01:06:52the Thunder Circle's gala.

01:06:54This isn't just an insult to me,

01:06:56it's treason

01:06:56it's Lady Thunder herself!

01:06:58She will be eliminated.

01:06:59And anyone who stands with her

01:07:01becomes my enemy!

01:07:04This is it.

01:07:04If I stand with Sylvia now,

01:07:06I'll win her

01:07:06and Lady Thunder's favor.

01:07:07Sylvia is right!

01:07:09Eleanor defied Lady Thunder,

01:07:10she must be punished!

01:07:11I second that!

01:07:12She's a disgrace!

01:07:13She defied everything

01:07:14we stand for!

01:07:16We must punish her!

01:07:18You're a punisher!

01:07:19Punisher!

01:07:20Punisher!

01:07:24No!

01:07:25You've all got it wrong!

01:07:27Sebastian!

01:07:28Everyone here saw what she did!

01:07:30You want to defend her?

01:07:32You hear that, Eleanor?

01:07:34Game over.

01:07:35You breathe because I allow it.

01:07:38And when I say you're finished,

01:07:40you're finished.

01:07:42You dare?

01:07:42If you do that,

01:07:43I promise I'll kill you!

01:07:45Shut up, Sebastian!

01:07:46Everyone here wants her gone!

01:07:48You'd risk your entire family

01:07:49for a woman like her?

01:07:51You want to ruin yourself?

01:07:52Fine.

01:07:52But don't drag the Whitmans

01:07:54down with you!

01:07:55This is what happens

01:07:55when you defy the Caldwells.

01:07:58So tell me, Eleanor,

01:07:59how do you want to die?

01:08:01Impressive, Sylvia.

01:08:02Twisting the truth so quickly.

01:08:04But you picked the wrong opponent.

01:08:06All of you?

01:08:07You're nothing but insects in my eyes.

01:08:09Still mouthing off?

01:08:10I'll send you straight to Hell!

01:08:13And who exactly do you plan

01:08:15on sending to Hell?

01:08:32Let's see.

01:08:32What are you doing here?

01:08:33It's the Thunder Circle's return gala.

01:08:36Big names were expected.

01:08:37Too bad for her,

01:08:38she's completely screwed now.

01:08:40What are you doing here, Varelli?

01:08:41We were just about to take out the trash.

01:08:43Unless you're planning to interfere

01:08:44with Thunder Circle justice,

01:08:46I suggest you let us finish.

01:08:47Sylvia Caldwell.

01:08:49Who exactly were you planning to kill?

01:08:51She attacked me in public,

01:08:52disrupted the gala.

01:08:54Look,

01:08:54I know we've had our differences,

01:08:56but don't tell me you're here

01:08:57to steal my credits

01:08:58to impress Lady Thunder.

01:09:00Steal credit?

01:09:02You really have no idea

01:09:03what you've just done.

01:09:05One more word out of you,

01:09:07and the Caldwell name is history.

01:09:10You're serious.

01:09:11Deadly!

01:09:11You touch her again,

01:09:13and your entire empire

01:09:14burns to the ground.

01:09:16Because the woman you just threatened

01:09:18is Lady Thunder herself.

01:09:21Lady Thunder!

01:09:27What?

01:09:28Lady Thunder?

01:09:29Don't be ridiculous.

01:09:30She's just a gold digger,

01:09:31for God's sake.

01:09:32Exactly.

01:09:33She's a broke hooker.

01:09:34This is just another bluff.

01:09:37She's pulling the same stunt.

01:09:39She used Lady Thunder

01:09:41to crush the Caldwell stores,

01:09:42and now she's here

01:09:43to sabotage our alliance.

01:09:45She is a fraud!

01:09:49You must be delusious.

01:09:51Fine.

01:09:54If you want to stand

01:09:55with this liar,

01:09:57then you're both

01:09:59as good as dead.

01:10:03Now I understand

01:10:04just how bold

01:10:07your entire family has become.

01:10:09You think Varelli,

01:10:10Amir,

01:10:11and the entire Thunder Circle

01:10:13couldn't erase

01:10:14your family overnight.

01:10:16The real Thunder Lady could.

01:10:19But tonight,

01:10:21she'll destroy you,

01:10:23and your two pathetic defenders.

01:10:47Lay a finger on her,

01:10:51and I promise

01:10:53none of you

01:10:55will live

01:10:55to regret it.

01:10:58You all want to defend

01:11:00a liar?

01:11:04Stand down!

01:11:11Stand down!

01:11:13That's Adam Lee,

01:11:15Lady Thunder's right hand.

01:11:16He doesn't show

01:11:17unless she commands it.

01:11:18What is happening?

01:11:19Mr. Lee, finally.

01:11:20You're Lady Thunder's assistant.

01:11:22Tell them this woman's lying.

01:11:24She's not Lady Thunder!

01:11:25Right?

01:11:25She's just my useless ex.

01:11:27How could she be anything?

01:11:28Lady Thunder runs

01:11:28billion-dollar portfolios.

01:11:30She babysits orphans.

01:11:31Shut up!

01:11:34Lady Thunder spent years

01:11:35leading the largest charity

01:11:36across Africa.

01:11:37While you were busy

01:11:37polishing your shoes,

01:11:38she was saving children!

01:11:44No, no, no!

01:11:45If that's true,

01:11:45then let her prove it!

01:11:46Lady Thunder is set

01:11:47to confirm the Circle's

01:11:48billion-dollar investment

01:11:49tonight,

01:11:50and the system's locked

01:11:51with one thing,

01:11:52her fingerprint.

01:11:53So if she's someone

01:11:54she claims to be,

01:11:55let her unlock it.

01:11:57Yes, let her prove it!

01:11:58She can't.

01:11:59It's all just empty words.

01:12:02Well, Eleanor,

01:12:03if you're truly Thunder Lady,

01:12:04go ahead,

01:12:05authorize the funds.

01:12:06Right here, right now.

01:12:09Elelyn,

01:12:09you sure you can?

01:12:11Relax, Sebastian.

01:12:12It's time they saw the truth.

01:12:32Highest level authorization verified,

01:12:34Eleanor Thunder.

01:12:35Title,

01:12:36CEO of the Thunder Circle,

01:12:38100 billion funds,

01:12:39activated.

01:12:46Oh, God!

01:12:47She is the Thunder Lady!

01:12:49The CEO of the Thunder Circle!

01:12:50And...

01:12:51she's...

01:12:52investing 100 billion

01:12:53in Sebastian?

01:12:54No, no!

01:12:55It can't be happening!

01:12:58Now you all know

01:13:00who I am.

01:13:01She really unlocked it.

01:13:03She's Lady Thunder!

01:13:05Lady Thunder!

01:13:07You...

01:13:07you are...

01:13:09her?

01:13:09What now, Sylvia?

01:13:10Got anything left to say?

01:13:13I...

01:13:14I...

01:13:17Sylvia!

01:13:18This is it!

01:13:19The Caldwell name is done!

01:13:21My dad will kill me!

01:13:25Take them out.

01:13:27We'll deal with them.

01:13:28After the gala.

01:13:33Eleanor.

01:13:34I'm so impressed.

01:13:36Your Lady Thunder!

01:13:38The CEO of the Thunder Circle.

01:13:41The most powerful woman alive.

01:13:43Does it even matter anymore?

01:13:47Of course it matters if I'd known...

01:13:50I never would have broken up with you.

01:13:53Things could have been different.

01:13:56Would they, Daniel?

01:13:58If I told you I was Lady Thunder...

01:14:03Would you have believed me?

01:14:05That I was the one who funded you?

01:14:09That I was the one who recommended you to Whitmore?

01:14:13We were together for seven years.

01:14:17You never once believed in me.

01:14:19You always saw me as someone who'd never match you.

01:14:22No, no, that's not true!

01:14:24All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top.

01:14:28It was never about me.

01:14:31That's not what I...

01:14:34You made your choice.

01:14:35So now,

01:14:36every benefit I gave you,

01:14:39every contact,

01:14:40every dollar,

01:14:41I'm taking it all back.

01:14:51Eleanor,

01:14:51don't do this.

01:14:54Please, Eleanor.

01:14:56We've known each other for years.

01:14:57You were always like a daughter to me.

01:14:59Any misunderstandings between us,

01:15:01we can fix!

01:15:03Your daughter?

01:15:04Weren't you the one who said

01:15:05I was just some useless girl?

01:15:07That I wasn't good enough for your son?

01:15:09That was before.

01:15:11I didn't know.

01:15:12I was stupid and blind.

01:15:15You...

01:15:15You're perfect, Eleanor.

01:15:19Now that you know I'm Lady Thunder,

01:15:21am I suddenly good enough?

01:15:23When I came back from Africa,

01:15:24that was the end of all this.

01:15:26You and Daniel,

01:15:28you're now out of my life.

01:15:30Oh!

01:15:32Please,

01:15:33we were together so long,

01:15:35Eleanor.

01:15:35Forgive me,

01:15:37please.

01:15:38You wanted a fast track to power,

01:15:40Daniel.

01:15:41Well,

01:15:41enjoy the fall.

01:15:43Eleanor,

01:15:43no,

01:15:44I mean,

01:15:44Lady Thunder.

01:15:46You and my Sebastian

01:15:47are such a perfect match.

01:15:49Congratulations.

01:15:51Indeed.

01:15:52Congratulations

01:15:53to you both.

01:15:56You're Sebastian?

01:15:58Interesting.

01:15:59I thought you expelled him

01:16:00from your family.

01:16:04That was a mistake.

01:16:05Of course he's still family,

01:16:07my grandson.

01:16:08Didn't I warn you?

01:16:09I told you all

01:16:10you would regret

01:16:11casting him aside.

01:16:13Grandma,

01:16:13I've decided.

01:16:14I'm stepping away

01:16:15from the Whitmos.

01:16:16From now on,

01:16:17I'll build something truly mine,

01:16:18without the family's shadow.

01:16:19But Sebastian...

01:16:20You should be grateful

01:16:22Sebastian still calls you

01:16:24Grandmother.

01:16:26Don't push your luck,

01:16:27Madam.

01:16:30All right.

01:16:32I respect your choice.

01:16:34So,

01:16:35Eleanor,

01:16:36as you can see,

01:16:37I'm no longer

01:16:38just a Whitmore.

01:16:40I'm a man starting over.

01:16:44But if you'll have me,

01:16:45I'd rather start it with you.

01:16:46Will you stay by my side

01:16:47and marry me?

01:16:49Of course I will.

01:16:51This time,

01:16:52as your wife,

01:16:53your investor,

01:16:54and your future co-founder.

01:17:16I'm a man starting over.
