00:00:04In the critical days before IPO, after I poured three years of blood and sweat into building this company from
00:00:11scratch, I'm standing in an all-hands meeting getting fucked over by an intern.
00:00:21President Gray, I'd like to file a formal complaint. Veronica has been blatantly abusing her authority as vice president.
00:00:30You use the corporate jet like your private party bus. That Gulfstream is meant to impress top investors, not your
00:00:37little socialette friends.
00:00:40While the rest of us are busting asses for this firm, you're up there playing celebrity at 30,000 feet.
00:00:46What do you have to say for yourself?
00:00:49What this idiot doesn't know is that the Gulfstream is mine. I loaned it to the company three years ago.
00:00:56What the hell are you laughing at?
00:01:00Rebecca, maybe you should explain to the office Sherlock who that jet actually belongs to before she starts dusting the
00:01:05room for fingerprints.
00:01:08Rebecca is my best friend.
00:01:10Three years ago she was drowning in debt and this firm was hanging by a thread.
00:01:15I was the one who saved both.
00:01:23Ronnie, I screwed up. I put every dollar I had into this company.
00:01:29The loan sharks said they're taking my fingers next.
00:01:33Please, you're the only one who can help me.
00:01:38Look at me. We're sisters. I'm not gonna let anything bad happen to you.
00:01:45Pay off your debt. Don't worry about paying me back.
00:01:50No.
00:01:53I won't take charity.
00:01:55From this day on, we're partners.
00:01:5750-50.
00:02:01When we started pitching investors, Wall Street laughed us out of the room.
00:02:07So when I bought my first private jet, I let Rebecca use it to make us look legit.
00:02:16Go pick up our investors in style.
00:02:18We may be small, but no one can say we look cheap.
00:02:24Explain these flight logs.
00:02:26President Gray, Veronica's been using the jet non-stop like her toy.
00:02:30The engine's taken a beating, and the company's putting insane hargar fees and maintenance costs.
00:02:35We're about to go public.
00:02:36If SEC sees this kind of executive asset abuse, our entire listing could collapse.
00:02:41We have to terminate her immediately.
00:02:47Everything came out of my pocket.
00:02:49I didn't cost this company a cent.
00:02:51If anything, I helped it fake success long enough to become successful.
00:02:57Rebecca, tell her.
00:03:04Vernonica!
00:03:05I can't believe you'd sink this low.
00:03:10Excuse me?
00:03:11This company has compliance rules.
00:03:13I don't care if you're a founder.
00:03:15Nobody gets special treatment.
00:03:17Wow.
00:03:19Look at you now.
00:03:22Ronnie.
00:03:23I screwed up.
00:03:24Again.
00:03:25The firm's about to go under because of me.
00:03:28I'm sorry.
00:03:29I'm sorry.
00:03:29I can't let you down.
00:03:31Hey.
00:03:32It's just money.
00:03:33We'll make more.
00:03:34I'll mortgage the jet if I have to.
00:03:37Ronnie.
00:03:40Nobody's ever believed in me the way you do.
00:03:44One day, when we're ringing that opening bell, I'm buying you the best jet on the market.
00:03:49We'll fly around the world together.
00:03:56Oh my god!
00:03:58We did it!
00:03:59We freaking did it!
00:04:14Promise me something.
00:04:16No matter how big this thing gets, it's always going to be you and me against the world.
00:04:22Deal.
00:04:23Sisters for life.
00:04:24And partners too.
00:04:25Don't forget partners.
00:04:33Fine.
00:04:34Rebecca wants to play dumb.
00:04:35But what about the rest of you?
00:04:37You all know exactly where that jet came from.
00:04:42Funny.
00:04:43When the company was drowning, I was everyone's hero.
00:04:46Now Rebecca turns on me and suddenly everybody develops amnesia.
00:04:51President Gray, to make sure nothing like this happens again, we should put the jet under administrative control.
00:04:57No one gets access without approval.
00:04:59That's a great idea, Ava.
00:05:00If we are serious about becoming a world-class company, we need real structure.
00:05:05Veronica, please hand over the jet access codes.
00:05:09That's not enough, considering how severe this abuse was.
00:05:13Veronica should apologize publicly in front of the entire company!
00:05:22One bitch wants a power trip.
00:05:24The other wants my jet.
00:05:26Fine.
00:05:28Let's see if you can survive the consequences.
00:05:36Veronica, what are you doing?
00:05:38Are you trying to cause a scene?
00:05:40This is Rebecca's company, not yours!
00:05:47Hmph.
00:05:48Wouldn't dream of forgetting that.
00:05:49That's better.
00:05:50A VP is still just an employee.
00:05:52Rebecca calls all the shots.
00:05:54It's about time you knew your place.
00:05:58Veronica, I know this doesn't feel fair.
00:06:00But we're on the verge of an IPO.
00:06:03Sacrifices have to be made.
00:06:04We're sisters.
00:06:05I'd never hurt you.
00:06:11They stole my jet and think they're still going public?
00:06:15That's cute.
00:06:24Can you believe her?
00:06:25Strutting around like she's above everyone, meanwhile she's been stealing from the firm.
00:06:29Sucking us dry just to impress her rich friends.
00:06:32It's disgusting.
00:06:33Rebecca's too kind.
00:06:34If it were me, security would have tossed this leech out on her ass already.
00:06:37Three years of carrying this firm on my back.
00:06:40And now they call me a leech.
00:06:46Veronica, according to estimate, you owe the firm $128,000.
00:06:51Hangar fees, fuel, cleaning.
00:06:54You even want me to reimburse the flight for salaries?
00:06:58You're the one who treated the company jet like a personal VIP pass.
00:07:02Don't be surprised when the bills got your name on it.
00:07:04You had your fun.
00:07:05Now, pay up like a big girl.
00:07:08Do you know who paid the hangar fees, insurance premiums, and crew salaries for the past three years?
00:07:14It's a company jet.
00:07:15Who do you think paid for it?
00:07:17The company.
00:07:18Duh.
00:07:18Interesting.
00:07:20Then why aren't there any invoices or payment records in the company books?
00:07:25Because I just took over.
00:07:27I haven't finished auditing everything yet.
00:07:29I'll find the records later.
00:07:31Nice try.
00:07:32Now stop changing the subject and pay what you owe!
00:07:34You could tear this office apart brick by brick and still wouldn't find those records.
00:07:39What the hell is that supposed to mean?
00:07:47It means the firm didn't pay a single cent.
00:07:50Every invoice for that jet over the last three years is right here.
00:07:54I paid everything myself from my personal account.
00:07:57So what? You're the one using the jet.
00:07:59Who else was supposed to pay?
00:08:00And you still owe the firm for using it!
00:08:04Then let me ask you one more question.
00:08:06Do you know who brought that jet into the firm three years ago?
00:08:09I don't know.
00:08:10And I don't care.
00:08:11It's registered under the company now.
00:08:13And Rebecca said if you don't pay up, we're dacking your bonus.
00:08:18Rebecca again.
00:08:19Oh, and one more thing.
00:08:21Rebecca has officially made me the jet administrator.
00:08:24From now on, you want to fly?
00:08:26You submit a request to me.
00:08:27If I approve it, you fly.
00:08:29If I don't, you stay on the damn ground.
00:08:33Let me get this straight.
00:08:35I'm the vice president, but I need a hall pass from a three-month intern to use my jet?
00:08:41What?
00:08:43Rebecca personally ordered it.
00:08:45Don't like it?
00:08:46Take it up with her.
00:08:53Fine. I'll pay.
00:08:56Could have saved us both a lot of time if you just said that from the start.
00:09:03Oh, one more thing.
00:09:05Rebecca's bringing in a major client on Monday.
00:09:08Make sure you clear your personal crap off the jet.
00:09:11Let's not embarrass the firm.
00:09:13Noted.
00:09:25Davis, I need some legal advice.
00:09:28Hypothetically, if someone takes your property, claims it's theirs, and profits off it, what are your options?
00:09:33Cases like that come down to one thing.
00:09:36Proof.
00:09:36As long as you can prove ownership, they'll have to return the property and be liable for any damages.
00:09:41Understood.
00:09:54Ronnie, the company's doing well. We can't keep using your jet for free.
00:09:59Maybe we should just buy it?
00:10:02Silly.
00:10:03What's mine is yours.
00:10:05If it helps the company, that's all that matters.
00:10:09Time really changes people.
00:10:11I gave her everything.
00:10:15Turns out all I did was teach her to take more.
00:10:21It's time to settle up.
00:10:32Veronica!
00:10:33I figured you were busy, so I went ahead and cleaned up for you.
00:10:37Hope that's not a problem.
00:10:42Why does this bargain get crap?
00:10:44Toss it all!
00:10:45Replace it with the Levant Rebecca actually drinks.
00:10:49That's Romaine Conti.
00:10:51Allocation only.
00:10:5220 grand a bottle.
00:10:54Every bottle paid for by me.
00:10:56Every bottle poured for the company's clients.
00:10:58Ew, this is giving rich grandma energy.
00:11:01Like, aggressively.
00:11:03Rip them out!
00:11:03I want luxury luxury, like Hermes Orange.
00:11:06I want clients to see money!
00:11:12Handcrafted in Italy, custom aviation leather.
00:11:1650k per seat.
00:11:17And she's ripping them out with a crowbar.
00:11:21Seriously?
00:11:23Why is there church stuff?
00:11:25It's killing the vibe!
00:11:28That was my mother's cross.
00:11:30The only thing she left me.
00:11:32Priceless.
00:11:33Much better.
00:11:34Now it actually looks expensive.
00:11:39Ava, you're about to find out how expensive ignorance can get.
00:11:43Oh, right. On one more thing.
00:11:45Management's decided to suspend you as Vice President.
00:11:48Takes them to think about what you've done.
00:11:50And start preparing your handover.
00:11:52Oh? A handover?
00:11:54To who?
00:11:55Me, obviously.
00:11:56Rebecca's promoting me to Director of Operations.
00:11:59Guess exposing corruption really pays off.
00:12:02You?
00:12:03The intern whose HR paperwork is still pending?
00:12:06So what? Rebecca made the call herself.
00:12:08You got problem with it? Take it up with her!
00:12:10Fair enough.
00:12:11Congratulations, Ava.
00:12:13I mean, Director Stutton.
00:12:14Now you're getting it!
00:12:16Clear out, you office.
00:12:17I'm moving in this afternoon.
00:12:24Why are you still here?
00:12:25This office is mine now.
00:12:27Can you try not to get in the way?
00:12:28Some of us actually have work to do.
00:12:32Oops.
00:12:33Guess my hand slipped.
00:12:34Then again, you're suspended.
00:12:35It's not like you'll be needing any of this stuff anymore.
00:12:40By all means, take the chair.
00:12:43Let's see if you can fill it.
00:12:52Wait!
00:12:53Yes, Director Sutton?
00:12:55Need something else?
00:12:56I want everything you've got on Victor's serve.
00:13:01Veronica, I admire people who stand behind their word.
00:13:04I'm impressed.
00:13:05I'd be happy to do business with your firm.
00:13:07Victory's our biggest client.
00:13:09I've spent months winning him over.
00:13:11In the end, that jet helped close the deal.
00:13:13Everything's in the database.
00:13:15Knock yourself out.
00:13:16I don't give a shit about what's in the database.
00:13:18I want the real intel.
00:13:19What does he like?
00:13:20What does he drink?
00:13:21What gets him to sign?
00:13:23And why exactly would I tell you that?
00:13:26Veronica, if we lose our biggest client because you bobbed the handover,
00:13:29you'll be responsible for the damages.
00:13:32Actually, no.
00:13:33You suspended me.
00:13:34As far as this company's concerned,
00:13:37I don't work here anymore.
00:13:38Whatever happens next isn't my problem.
00:13:41Also, if you're qualified enough to steal my job,
00:13:43you should be capable enough to keep my clients.
00:13:46I've got somewhere to be.
00:13:47Good luck.
00:13:48You're gonna need it.
00:13:52Keep talking, bitch.
00:13:53You act like Victor only says yes to you.
00:13:56The minute I land this deal, you're finished.
00:14:02Ms. Belton, welcome back.
00:14:04What can we do for you today?
00:14:05I want maximum security installed on my aircraft.
00:14:08Starting today, nobody flies it without my fingerprint and authorization from my phone.
00:14:11I want full control routed to my device.
00:14:14Of course.
00:14:14As the registered owner, that's entirely your right.
00:14:17We'll start immediately.
00:14:18Perfect.
00:14:22Veronica?
00:14:23Shouldn't you be at home reflecting on your behavior?
00:14:26What are you doing here?
00:14:28Oh, please.
00:14:30Don't tell me you're trying to steal the jet again.
00:14:32Honestly, Veronica, do you have any shame?
00:14:35This is company property.
00:14:38It's a work day.
00:14:40I'm working.
00:14:42So you're using it for a business trip?
00:14:45Didn't I make myself clear?
00:14:46Nobody uses company aircraft without my permission.
00:14:51It wouldn't matter anyway.
00:14:53The jet's booked.
00:14:54Rebecca and I are taking the jet to Chicago for a deal.
00:14:57Veronica, if you really need to travel for business, just book a coach flight.
00:15:01We'll reimburse the ticket as a courtesy.
00:15:07Reimburse me?
00:15:10Flying my jet.
00:15:11Burning my fuel.
00:15:13Closing their deals.
00:15:15And offering to reimburse me for a coach ticket.
00:15:17The audacity is almost impressive.
00:15:23Hello, this is Veronica Belton.
00:15:25My credit card has been compromised.
00:15:27Freeze the account immediately.
00:15:31Oh?
00:15:36You're right on time.
00:15:42Now?
00:15:43No.
00:15:43That's too easy.
00:15:45If I'm going to ground them, I'll do it when they think they've won.
00:15:57Veronica!
00:15:58What the hell is wrong with you?
00:16:00Tom just tried to refuel and found your card declined.
00:16:03Do you have any idea what kind of mess this is causing?
00:16:05Calm down.
00:16:06That's my personal card.
00:16:08The system flagged suspicious activity.
00:16:09Of course I froze it.
00:16:11Victor lands tomorrow.
00:16:12The jet needs to be ready.
00:16:13Unfreeze the card.
00:16:14Now!
00:16:15Banks are closed for the weekend.
00:16:17Earliest I can unfreeze it is Monday.
00:16:19Are you doing this out of spite?
00:16:21I find you once and suddenly you're sabotaging the firm?
00:16:24If this deal falls apart, that's on you.
00:16:27It's my card.
00:16:28I can freeze it whenever I want.
00:16:30And remind me, why is the company using my credit card?
00:16:33You?
00:16:36I didn't care before, back when I thought this company was ours.
00:16:40Now I do.
00:16:41Fine, Veronica!
00:16:42You want to play hardball?
00:16:43From now on, don't expect any more favors from the firm!
00:16:47Favors?
00:16:48When have you given me any favors?
00:16:54When Rebecca was struggling, I leased her an entire floor.
00:16:57My father left me at half the market rate.
00:16:59And that lease expired two days ago.
00:17:04You want to bite the hand that fed you?
00:17:06Go ahead.
00:17:07I'll make sure it's the last mistake you ever make.
00:17:12Hi.
00:17:13I'm leasing out the 22nd floor of Manhattan Star Tower.
00:17:17Rent is negotiable.
00:17:19My only condition is simple.
00:17:21Move in within three days with full rent.
00:17:24How dare this bitch hang up on me!
00:17:26I'm the fucking CEO here!
00:17:28President Gray,
00:17:29a woman who throws a fit over a little jet fuel
00:17:32has no place in a firm of this caliber.
00:17:34Once we sign with Victor tomorrow,
00:17:36we'll kick her out for good.
00:17:48Mr. Sterling, please give a little more time.
00:17:51To show how much we value your business,
00:17:53I'm sending our private jet to bring you in personally.
00:17:58Is everything ready?
00:18:00Victor is our biggest investor.
00:18:02Absolutely nothing can go wrong today.
00:18:05I've got you, President Gray.
00:18:06The jet's totally ready to go.
00:18:08And since Mr. Sterling loves the VIP treatment,
00:18:11I've stocked the cabin with top-shelf champagne,
00:18:13gourmet catering,
00:18:14and the works.
00:18:15Good.
00:18:17Nothing says success like the $30 million jet
00:18:20waiting on the runway.
00:18:20Victor will be signing before he even lands.
00:18:23President Gray,
00:18:25Ava may be young,
00:18:26but she's already left Veronica in the dust.
00:18:29Absolutely.
00:18:30Ava's the future of this firm.
00:18:32Veronica's way of doing things is ancient history.
00:18:34She was holding the firm back.
00:18:35You guys are giving me way too much credit.
00:18:38Everything I know came from President Gray.
00:18:41Alright, time for Callie.
00:18:43Let's get moving.
00:18:44Yes, ma'am.
00:18:56Get moving?
00:18:57Not unless I allow it.
00:19:03Hello?
00:19:04Miss Belton.
00:19:04I have a client who urgently needed office space.
00:19:07Only catch is he's in debt collection,
00:19:09and his people can be a little rough.
00:19:10Want me to find someone more corporate?
00:19:12Debt collectors?
00:19:14Perfect.
00:19:15I've got some former tenants refusing to leave.
00:19:18If he clears them out today,
00:19:20I'll lease him the floor at half rent.
00:19:22Absolutely.
00:19:23That's what they do best.
00:19:24I'll send them over now.
00:19:26Debt collectors and Victor showing up at the same time.
00:19:29This should be fun.
00:19:30Rebecca,
00:19:31I'd love to hear how you explain this one.
00:19:55What's going on?
00:19:56Why did the planes stop?
00:19:57I don't know.
00:19:58The engine just cut out.
00:20:00The control board went dark.
00:20:01Then restart it.
00:20:02What are you standing there for?
00:20:05what the hell is happening it looks like the system controls are locked what are you idiots

00:23:11responsible
00:23:11that's strange president gray because i distinctly remember you giving ava full control of the jet
00:23:16so why am i suddenly being called in to save the day
00:23:20president gray already told us you were the one managing the jet
00:23:23i get it now
00:23:25you're bitter because i replaced you so you're trying to sabotage our deal with victor
00:23:33exactly i'm sabotaging you what are you going to do about it
00:23:40veronica you're trying to destroy this firm you're risking our entire future just to settle a personal grudge
00:23:47what does the firm have to do with me i'm suspended remember
00:23:51you're the operations director now if something's gone wrong that's your problem not mine
00:23:57you veronica i'm ordering you stop this nonsense and unlock the plane

00:24:28do yourself a favor
00:24:32open your eyes and read the owner's name
00:24:44how is this possible
00:24:53how is this possible
00:24:55because it's my jet
00:24:57i decide when it flies i decide when it stays grounded
00:25:00and right now
00:25:03it's staying right where it is
00:25:05no
00:25:05no way
00:25:07that's impossible this jet belonged to the company
00:25:10you forged that document
00:25:12you had to
00:25:14forged then go ahead ask your president
00:25:17ask her if she has the guts to stand here and tell everyone that jet belongs to her
00:25:21don't push me i can fire you right here right now
00:25:25that'd be fantastic
00:25:26i've been dying to get out of this dump honestly you'd be doing me a favor
00:25:31you
00:25:32you little
00:25:44rebecca your jet never came so i took mine
00:25:48should i assume you're no longer interested in doing business

00:25:52i am so sorry
00:25:53we ran into an unexpected issue with the jet
00:25:56but everything's under control now
00:25:57that's not the point
00:25:58i cleared my schedule and waited over an hour my time is money miss gray

00:26:34president gray fired me a few minutes ago
00:26:37what
00:26:41rebecca what the hell is this
00:26:45veronica's track record is the only reason i was willing to consider this partnership
00:26:49mr sterling
00:26:50this is all just a misunderstanding
00:26:52where's the misunderstanding
00:26:54did she not get fired
00:26:56mr sterling
00:26:57veronica was fired for abusing company privileges
00:27:00she took the company jet without permission
00:27:02permission
00:27:02unless i'm mistaken that gross dream belongs to miss veronica
00:27:06mr sterling she's lied to you that plane is company property
00:27:09ava
00:27:10shut your mouth
00:27:17veronica
00:27:18explain this to mr sterling
00:27:20please don't air our dirty laundry in front of an investor
00:27:23wait
00:27:26that jet actually belonged to veronica
00:27:28now you're worried about appearances
00:27:31where was that concern when you humiliated me in front of the entire company

00:27:36connie we've been friends forever
00:27:39please just do this for me

00:27:43as of today you me and this company have nothing to do with one another
00:27:47rebecca you've wasted my time
00:27:50veronica is the only reason i agreed to work together
00:27:52without her i have no interest in doing business with your firm
00:27:56mr sterling please don't hasty we can still make this work
00:27:59we can renegotiate the terms
00:28:02veronica lent you her jet for free
00:28:04and you thanked her by firing her
00:28:06if that's how you treat your best people
00:28:08why would i trust you with my money
00:28:10veronica

00:37:05but she's not hard on the eyes
00:37:12president gray
00:37:14i'm trying to figure something out
00:37:15hey

00:37:20you're not mad at me anymore
00:37:21oh sweetheart
00:37:23i was never mad at you
00:37:24i'm just frustrated with the situation
00:37:27that backstabbing bitch veronica put in
00:37:32president gray
00:37:33honestly i admire your integrity
00:37:35you're brave enough to call out what's wrong even when nobody else will
00:37:38that's what makes you so special
00:37:45everybody stop what you're doing and come here for a second
00:37:49i have two announcements to make
00:37:51first about veronica
00:37:53that ungrateful snake stabbed this company in the back
00:37:56she stole our biggest client and tried to squeeze us with a rent hike
00:37:59when we were already under pressure
00:38:05but here's the good news
00:38:06we're not sinking just because she jumped chef
00:38:09i've already lined up meetings with several major clients
00:38:11if we land these deals our ipo stays on track
00:38:14and when that happens everyone here gets a double bonus
00:38:20double bonuses really
00:38:22i knew rebecca would pull through to hell with veronica
00:38:25exactly the company is better off without her
00:38:28you better believe it's true
00:38:29i'll be closing these deals myself tonight
00:38:31veronica thinks this company rises and falls with her
00:38:34she's delusional
00:38:35now get back to work

00:53:05that's all
00:53:07i haven't done anything wrong either
00:53:09i'm taking back what's mine
00:53:11i'm suing the people who wronged me
00:53:14so tell me
00:53:14what exactly do you think i owe you
00:53:17you're unbelievably selfish
00:53:19it's just a jet
00:53:20because of you the company's falling apart
00:53:23you got your revenge
00:53:25but what about everyone else
00:53:27when the company collapses
00:53:28how are they supposed to support their families
00:53:34i didn't destroy the company
00:53:37you and reka did
00:53:38the employees aren't my problem
00:53:40and if the company goes under
00:53:42they'll find another job
00:53:44just like i did
00:53:49miss ava you're still very young
00:53:52what is that supposed to mean
00:53:56rebecca fed you a fairy tale
00:53:58and sent you here to beg
00:54:00the sad part is
00:54:03you bought it
00:54:03who the hell are you to judge me
00:54:05i just wanted to prove myself
00:54:07there's nothing wrong with ambition
00:54:08the problem is stepping on people
00:54:10to get ahead
00:54:11and when your ambition's bigger than your ability
00:54:14you crash
00:54:15you're saying i'm not good enough
00:54:17if you are you wouldn't have company in three weeks
00:54:20and you definitely wouldn't be here begging me to save it
00:54:29honestly you're so painfully naive that i almost feel bad for you
00:54:32so here's some free advice
00:54:34walk away from rebecca
00:54:36quit today
00:54:37find a real company
00:54:38start from the bottom
00:54:39and learn how business actually works
00:54:41no way
00:54:41i work too hard to get where i am
00:54:43i'm not going back to fetching coffee and making copies
00:54:46and stop pretending you care
00:54:47if you're so great come back
00:54:49i'll give you your vp job back myself
00:54:51keep it
00:54:53i'm building my own company
