FunTranscript
00:00I mean, look at this line from last year.
00:02It's garbage.
00:03It's total garbage.
00:04She looks like trash.
00:05She really does.
00:05I don't really think that...
00:09Is that this candidate for senior designer?
00:13Doesn't exactly scream a size zero, does she?
00:15More like comfort wear than runway chic.
00:18Here, let me get a better look at what we're working with here.
00:23Hello.
00:25Oh, let's keep this professional.
00:28Okay, sorry, just assessing the merchandise.
00:32Good morning.
00:33Can I help you?
00:34Good morning.
00:35I'm Emma Hayes.
00:37I have a 10 a.m. interview with the senior designer position with Mr. Bob Thorne.
00:43Yes, Miss Hayes.
00:45This is actually Mr. Thorne here.
00:49Let me just make sure the conference room is empty.
00:52Honestly, our brand is about aspiration,
00:54and how can someone design aspirational fashion
00:58if they don't look aspirational themselves?
01:00It's about perception, right?
01:02I mean, clients, they need to see the ideal.
01:04Exactly.
01:05They want to see discipline, control, and perfection.
01:07Not someone who clearly doesn't understand the concept of portion control.
01:12Okay, the conference room is available.
01:15All right, follow me.
01:43All right, follow me.
01:46Miss Hayes, please, um, let's make this quick.
01:50My time is valuable, and your portfolio, if I'm being frank, show some creativity,
01:55but let me be blunt about something.
01:58Vogue Line Fashions is a brand built on a very specific image,
02:02an image of elegance, exclusivity, and a certain kind of physical perfection.
02:07I understand brand identity is important, but I believe my work speaks for itself.
02:13My designs have consistently driven sales and garnered critical acclaim.
02:19Our designers, especially our senior wins, are expected to embody that image.
02:23And frankly, your build doesn't quite align with the aesthetic that we project.
02:29Mr. Thorne, my focus is on creating fashion that empowers and that includes designs for diverse body types.
02:38This is a rapidly growing market segment that many brands are successfully tapping into.
02:44If I could just show you some examples of my work that demonstrate innovative and commercial success.
02:51The clients expect our designers to be the brand, Miss Hayes.
02:54They want to see the ideal, not practicality. It's about aspiration.
03:00Yeah, Emma, our runway models are size two for a reason.
03:04How can you design for them if you don't understand that level of discipline?
03:10My ability to design is based on skill, vision, and marketing understanding, not my dress size.
03:18In fact, my understanding of diverse body types allows me to create more universally flattering and commercially successful garments.
03:29Uh, sorry to bother you, Bob. I just need your signature on these forms for a moment.
03:35Also, Emma, I just really wanted to say that you have excellent references.
03:40Like, really, really outstanding recommendations.
03:44Okay, Nina, we're discussing brand fit here.
03:46Okay? Now, it's crucial to our company's success.
03:51Look, we're a luxury brand. We sell dreams.
03:56And dreams don't come in every shape and size.
03:59We need someone who lives and breathes that slim, sophisticated ideal.
04:03It's a tough industry, Emma. You have to be able to keep up.
04:07Physically.
04:09Long hours, fitting models, running shows.
04:12It's very demanding work.
04:15With all due respect, Mr. Thorne, my extensive experience in design, pattern making, and production management speaks for itself.
04:24My previous role involved leading a team that successfully launched multiple collections, significantly increasing revenue for a company that embraced
04:34body diversity.
04:36Are you truly suggesting my physical appearance is more relevant to my design capabilities than my five years of proven
04:46professional success?
04:47In this industry, Ms. Hayes, perception is everything. You need to present that image.
04:53It's a fundamental part of your job.
04:56Maybe you should consider it a different career path? Something less visible?
05:01Perhaps a less physically demanding role, or a company with a different ethos might be a better fit for someone
05:09with your particular challenges?
05:25Well, that was easy enough.
05:27Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.
05:30Better she learns now than waste more time in the industry that she is clearly not built for.
05:36And that was business. Pure and simple.
05:40Ms. Hayes, Emma, are you alright?
05:44Alright? I was just body shamed and dismissed because I don't fit some inadequate, unattainable beauty standard they think defines
05:52fashion.
05:52This wasn't an interview. It was an insult.
05:55I am so sorry.
05:57What they said in there was completely unprofessional and discriminatory.
06:02Still here, Ms. Hayes?
06:03I thought we were done.
06:05Some people just can't handle honest feedback about their personal branding.
06:09Maybe she needs a consolation prize or a voucher for a gym or something.
06:14You know what? Thank you.
06:16This interview has just solidified my resolve to do something I've been contemplating for a while now.
06:24Oh really? And what's that? A new diet plan?
06:28No, Mr. Thorne. It's about building a brand that champions true beauty.
06:32One that celebrates individuality and talent.
06:36No archaic, narrow-minded ideals.
06:39A brand that will show this industry just how much money it's leaving on the table by clinging to outdated
06:45notions of what fashion should be.
06:47That's an incredible idea, Emma.
06:49With your vision and designs, you could revolutionize this industry.
06:53Your own brand? That's rich.
06:56You think you can compete with Vogue Line? You couldn't even get hired here.
07:00Yeah. Good luck getting investors to fund that.
07:03They'll probably ask you to slim down for the pitch meeting.
07:06We'll see who's laughing in a year.
07:10Thank you, Nina, for being the only professional and decent person in this entire building.
07:14I believe in you, Emma. Go show them what your talent really looks like.
07:18Oh, and don't forget to send us your lookbook after you've found a new tailor.
07:31Don't watch, Jack. This new inclusive direction is bleeding us dry.
07:36Our full clientele wants aspiration, not accessibility.
07:38The numbers don't lie. We're losing our high-end customers to competitors who understand true luxury.
07:44This whole body positive movement is just a fad. It'll pass and we'll be left with what? A damaged brand.
07:55Nina, what are you doing here? We're waiting for the new CEO.
07:59Just a moment, gentlemen. Our new CEO is about to join us.
08:03New CEO? What happened to Morrison?
08:05Mr. Morrison was let go by the board last month. Didn't you get the memo?
08:10Uh, Emma, what are you doing here?
08:14Good morning, gentlemen. Or should I say, former gentlemen of Vogue Line?
08:19Emma, what is this? You're... wait a minute, you're the CEO? But how is that possible?
08:25After your incredibly helpful feedback last year, I channeled my anger into something productive.
08:32My brand Authenticurve launched six months ago and it quickly exploded into the market,
08:37capturing a massive underserved demographic. Investors flocked to us because they recognized what
08:44you couldn't. That real women who have real money and they are ready to spend it on fashion.
08:50But Vogue Line is an established brand. We've been here for decades.
08:55And as it turns out, Vogue Line fashions, under your aspirational but completely stagnant leadership,
09:01was circling the drain. Nina here was instrumental. She kept me informed of Vogue Line's declining sales
09:09and initial issues. Especially the persuasive culture of discrimination that you two have fostered.
09:17Her detailed documentation provided crucial leverage when the board was looking for new leadership.
09:22This is impossible. You can't just take over a company because you're upset about an interview.
09:27The board was looking for a radical change. Someone with a fresh vision and proven results.
09:34My success with Authenticurve combined with my dedication to true inclusivity made me the obvious
09:40choice. So yes, Bob, Jack, I am the new CEO. My company Authenticurve acquired Vogue Line fashions
09:48this morning. And as your new leader, I'm cleaning out the house, starting with the very top.
09:54You can't fire us. We have contacts. We have rights. Now let me give you some fashion advice.
10:02You both look quite stressed. And frankly, Bob, you really don't project the aspirational image
10:08anymore. You look rather defeated. You look so serious and angry. Employers don't like that in their
10:16employees. This is preposterous. You can't just waltz in here and destroy everything that we have built.
10:21You know, this is discrimination. We're going to sue you for wrongful termination. How about that?
10:27Feel free to try. Nina has meticulously documented your consistent patterns of body shaming, gender-based
10:34discrimination, and hostile work environments. Your personal branding has already been thoroughly
10:40reviewed by my legal team. They'd welcome the opportunity to expose your practices in open court.
10:45But we were just doing our jobs. It was business. We didn't mean anything personal.
10:50You meant every single word. Your words and actions created a toxic environment that stifled talent
10:58and alienated a huge customer base. And now you get to live with the consequences. Security will escort you
11:07out. Your final paycheck will also be mailed to you. You can't run a fashion company. You're just a fat,
11:13bitter woman who can't handle rejection. I'm a woman who built a multi-million dollar fashion empire
11:19in one year and then acquired the very company that tried to dismiss her. But please continue to tell me
11:26what I can't do. This is reverse discrimination. It's not fair. We were just following industry standards.
11:32Even now, you still don't understand how wrong you were. Nina, thank you for your courage and
11:41your integrity. I'm promoting you to Chief Officer of Operating Office.
11:48We're going to reshape this company and make you a true leader. Emma, I can't believe this is
11:55happening. This feels like justice. It is justice. And it's just the beginning. We are going to build
12:03something that is truly exquisite. This isn't over. You'll destroy this company with your ridiculous
12:09ideas. The industry will never accept this. You're making a huge mistake. Huge! Huge!
12:25I can't believe we actually did it. Welcome to the new era of Vogue Line, Nina. Let's create beautiful,
12:32empowering fashion for everyone. So what's our first move? Well, we're going to launch a campaign
12:38celebrating real women with real stories. And we're going to make sure everyone in this industry knows
12:44that talent and vision matter more than, you know, dress size. I love it. Those two have no idea what's
12:50about to hit them. The fashion industry is about to change forever. And we're going to be the ones
12:56leading that change. It's me. Hi there. I'm Julia. Looks like I'll be your seat neighbor for the next few
13:06hours. How are ya? I'm fine. But I think you need to find another seat. Is there a problem with
13:11my seat?
13:12I was really looking forward to the extra comfort of first class. The problem isn't with the seat. It's
13:17with you. People of your size should consider buying two seats instead of encroaching on other
13:23people's space. I assure you I spoke to the airline before booking. They confirmed that first class
13:27would accommodate me comfortably. I didn't want to cause any inconvenience. Well, you are causing
13:32an inconvenience. It's about having a bit of consideration for others. Your decision to sit
13:38here affects me directly. It's frankly selfish. I'm truly sorry you feel that way. I just followed the
13:45airline's guidance. I believe everyone has a right to be comfortable during their flight. Don't you?
13:50Rights are one thing. But there's also common decency and understanding social norms. First class
13:57isn't about just comfort. It's about maintaining a certain standard. A standard you clearly don't meet.
14:05I'm struggling to understand how my presence here is about standards. I paid for my ticket just like you.
14:12The airline has policies in place for inclusivity. Inclusivity is a construct. It should infringe
14:19on my comfort and expectations for this flight. You might have paid for your ticket, but at the expense
14:25of my comfort. I didn't realize sitting next to me was such a burden. I'm just trying to get to
14:31my
14:31destination like you. I didn't choose this to make you uncomfortable. It's not just about me. It's about
14:37respecting the shared spaces we occupy. Your choices have consequences. And now because of your lack of
14:45foresight, I'm the one who has to suffer. I think there's been a misunderstanding. I've always been
14:50mindful of my impact on others. The airline reassured me I'd fit here without issue, which clearly I do.
14:57Reassurances doesn't change the physical reality of our shared space. You should have been more considerate.
15:04I'm a very considerate person. I assure you. Sure doesn't seem like it.
15:14Excuse me. Can you help us here? I think there's been some kind of mistake with our seating arrangement.
15:20Oh, yes. How can I assist? I believe my seatmate would be more comfortable elsewhere. This situation
15:25isn't ideal for either of us. May I see your ticket, please?
15:34Well, everything seems to be in order here. Unfortunately, you're in the correct seat.
15:39Unfortunately? However, should there be any disturbances,
15:43please let me know immediately and we'll see about reseating you.
15:55Good evening. What can I get for you today? I'll have that egg fried rice, please. And could you add
16:01like an extra serving of chicken on that? Oh, and a glass of your finest white wine?
16:06Of course. Coming right up. Anything else to make your flight more comfortable?
16:12Actually, yes. Could you ensure that the out remains clear? I just might want to stretch my legs.
16:20Absolutely. We'll take care of that. Your comfort is our priority.
16:24Excuse me. Could I see the menu? I haven't had a chance to choose my meal yet.
16:28You want the menu? Yes, please. I'm quite hungry. Right. Here, though I'd recommend considering
16:36some of our lighter options, we have a lovely salad that might be a bit more suitable. Thank you,
16:43but I'd actually prefer something more substantial. Could I have the same as her? The egg fried rice with
16:49an extra serving of chicken sounds lovely. Are you sure that's smart? Perhaps you haven't considered the
16:54benefits of a lighter meal, especially after sitting for so long. It might be more comfortable for you
17:01and others. Yes, maybe you should, you know, take the flight attendants advice. It's not just about
17:08what you want. It's what's best for everyone. I believe I can decide for myself what I'd like to eat.
17:13My comfort and my choices are my own concern. Thank you for your suggestion, but I'll stick with the rice.
17:21If that's what you want. But don't come complaining to us if you find the seat a bit snugger after
17:27the meal.
17:28That was really uncalled for. Not my concern. Your clear disregard for others, quite frankly, is appalling.
17:34Well, I suppose some people just don't know when to take good advice. It always seems fascinating to me
17:41to see the choices people make, isn't it? Absolutely. Well, your meals will be out shortly.
17:49Remember, we're here to make your flight as pleasant as possible for those who deserve it.
18:03Excuse me, sir. Could you please come here for a moment? There's someone on the phone for you.
18:08Yes. How can I assist you further? Another complaint, perhaps? Not a complaint.
18:12I think it's best you hear this directly. Please take the phone. Yes. Hello. Who am I speaking to?
18:20This is John Goldstein, CEO of the airline. And before you doubt, let me confirm. Your employee
18:25identification number is 45732B. We need to discuss your conduct on this flight.
18:30Oh, Mr. Goldstein. Sir, I assure you of whatever you've been told. I was just performing my duties.
18:37That's not. Performing your duties involves discriminating against a passenger, does it?
18:41Your behavior not only violated our company's values, but also basic human decency.
18:45Please, sir. I didn't mean any harm. I thought I was just... I can do better. I will do better.
18:52Haha. Too little, too late. You clearly don't have the dignity and respect it takes to be an employee of
18:57my airlines.
18:58Please, sir. I'm sorry, okay? Don't let this mistake cost me my job. I need this.
19:04It's too late for apologies. Your actions have consequences. I expect our staff to treat everyone worth we respect, something
19:11you clearly failed to do.
19:12I need this job, Mr. Goldstein. I'll do anything. I'll go through any training you want. Please.
19:17Your dismissal stands. This is a lesson in responsibility and accountability. Goodbye, Jack. Now hand the phone back to my
19:24brother.
19:30I hope you've learned your lesson on how you treat others. Oh, save it. You did this to me.
19:36You did this to yourself. And you. I spoke with my father, the CEO of this airline. Congratulations.
19:45You're now banned from flying with us ever again. What? CEO? Banned? You can't do this. I can.
19:52And I have. I hope you didn't book your return flight with this airline because consider that ticket gone.
19:59You're banning me because of your poor lifestyle choices? This is absurd. This isn't about being
20:04banned from an airline. It's about recognizing the deep-seated prejudices that you and sadly many others
20:11harbor. I have my opinions and I'm entitled to them. Your opinions contribute to a culture of
20:17intolerance and discrimination. What's wrong with society is not people's sizes, colors, or choices.
20:23It's the lack of love, kindness, and respect we show each other. Look, everyone says things they don't
20:30mean sometimes. I'm no different. But it's in those moments, what we say and do, that define us.
20:35It's easy to judge and harder to understand. Look, maybe I was a bit harsh. I didn't think.
20:43Thinking before we speak. Considering the impact of our words and actions,
20:48that's where change begins. It's never too late to choose kindness over prejudice. Now leave.
21:02Your size? I don't think so. Maybe I should try it on. Honey, trust me. If you were to wear
21:11this dress
21:11to the party, all the men will be running away from you.
21:20I don't think I'm gonna find anything to wear to that party.
21:24Well, even if you don't find anything, you still have a ton of beautiful dresses in your closet.
21:29But I've worn all of them before. I need to find something special for Brad.
21:34What? Oh, is Brad your date? No, but by the end of the party, he'll be my boyfriend.
21:44He's crazy about me. He just needs a little push. You know, by the way Brad and I were talking
21:50at work the other day, I kind of got the feeling that... What? Brad was into you?
21:57Oh, honey. Brad is way out of your league. I guess I misread it then. You think? Why can't I
22:06find
22:07one single good dress here? I think I found one. This is stunning. Exactly what I was looking for.
22:20Too bad there's only one left. This is my size. Looks like it was meant to be for me.
22:27Well, it's my size too, and I was the one that found it, so shouldn't I...
22:32Your size? I don't think so. Excuse me? I mean, well, with your hips and the way they are built,
22:43you would need at least one size larger. Plus, it wouldn't do your legs any justice anyways.
22:49Maybe I should try it on. Honey, trust me. If you were to wear this dress to the party,
22:56all the men will be running away from you like mad. But this will be perfect for Brad. I must
23:02go try it on.
23:11Sally?
23:12Sally? Brad? What are you doing here?
23:17Nothing. I just came in here looking for a jacket. What about you?
23:20Just shopping. Hey, are you going to the holiday party this Saturday?
23:26Yeah, I am. I mean, if I can find anything to wear. Stop. You know you'd look great in anything.
23:32Thanks, Brad. You're so sweet.
23:35Brad?
23:37What do you think?
23:39Wow.
23:40I saw this on the rack, and I just had to have it for the holiday party.
23:44Well, it's an amazing dress. Honestly though, Sally, I think it'd look great on you.
23:49On me?
23:51Yeah, I think the colors would really bring out your eyes.
23:56Well, this is the only one they had.
23:59Oh, but that's okay. I mean, what you wear hardly matters.
24:02Sally looks great no matter what she wears. See, when you're beautiful on the inside,
24:06it comes through on the outside too.
24:08Thanks, Brad.
24:10Hey, so I don't know if you'd be interested, but would you want to go to the party with me?
24:15Like, maybe we could grab coffee or something beforehand?
24:18Or...
24:18Yes, I...
24:21That sounds really nice.
24:23Awesome. Um, well, I look forward to it. I'll pick you up at seven, okay?
24:28Okay.
24:29Bye, Jennifer.
24:33You can have this ugly dress. You'll still look fat in it.
24:37Actually, I don't care what I wear. I have plenty of nice clothes in my closet.
24:42I'll see you later.
24:45Yeah.
24:47Iのめ yeah.
24:52I will stick my cortex down now.
