00:01:26Master, you finally called for me!

00:01:31Hey, stop crying. You're a demigod now. Pull yourself together.

00:01:36Demigod? Who cares? I'm just your summoned beast, Master.

00:01:48Greetings, Lord Temple Master.

00:02:02Hawk lead to all birds. We're entering the canyon in 30 seconds. Keep your intervals tight and your heads on

00:02:07a swivel.

00:02:08Ladies, get your balls tight, because there's no room for mistakes down there.

00:02:12Copy lead. We're glued to your six. That's what I like to hear. Let's go make some noise.

00:02:26Silence!

00:02:32Master, everything I am, it's because of you. When I step out, I won't stop until I reach Ascendant. That's

00:02:37a promise.

00:02:39Don't master me. You can't even sniff Ascendant. I don't take stragglers.

00:02:43Come on. I'm the Grand Master of the Order. Top dog of the whole Federation. And you're still giving me

00:02:50the brush off?

00:02:51Spare me the CV. Beat it.

00:02:57Master, when I make Ascendant, I swear I'll come back and formally take you as my master.

00:03:03You yap more than any con I've ever sprunged. Keep yapping. I'll give you another three years to think about

00:03:08it.

00:03:08Thank you, Master. I owe you everything.

00:03:24All hail the Grand Master! The Federation's mightiest warrior!

00:03:30Are you nuts? Keep it down!

00:03:34Master, your disciple, Victoria Cross. Present. I didn't realize your meditation spot was right next to a dump like that.

00:03:41Dump? That's the Abyss. The most vicious lock-up on Earth. I'm lucky I'm breathing.

00:03:47After three years, you must be right at Ascendant's doorstem. You're practically invincible now.

00:03:55Invincible? Not even close. My master could drop an Ascendant with two hands tied.

00:04:00Hold up. Your master? There's someone stronger than you? Can I get an introduction?

00:04:06When I'm his disciple for real, you'll know.

00:04:08Now up, everyone. Move out. And zip it.

00:04:11Master, I've got to stop to make it that prison. I'll find you later.

00:04:17Meet the Dreadlord, third on the world's most wanted. Orders are to house him here.

00:04:24Copy. Anything else?

00:04:25One more thing. You are Drake Ashford, I presume? I'm Victoria Cross. And it appears, by arrangement, I'm your fiancée.

00:04:37I'm here to terminate that arrangement. You're not going to make this difficult, are you?

00:04:48Why the sudden divorce?

00:04:51You are not worthy of Miss Eileen. If you care about her at all, sign the papers and leave. You're

00:04:58just holding her back.

00:04:59I'm not good enough for her?

00:05:01You're a nobody with no summoned beast. What makes you think you deserve her? Who do you think you are?

00:05:06Lord Bart from the Summoner's Temple?

00:05:08Bart? If he saw me, he'd get on his knees and kiss my boots.

00:05:15Shut your mouth. Do you have a death wish, bad-mouthing the Temple's Branch Master?

00:05:25Don't waste your breath on this small-minded loser. He knows nothing.

00:05:40A magic core that boosts your summoned beast potential. Engagement gift. For you.

00:05:46So this is the real reason you want a divorce?

00:05:49You could see it that way. My husband can't be some loser with no summoned beast.

00:05:56Sign it.

00:06:07Fine. I'll sign the divorce papers. Just don't regret this later.

00:06:16He wouldn't dare object. A small-time warden in a nowhere prison. Next to the Federation's youngest general, he's not

00:06:24even the dirt under your boots.

00:06:25Is this woman insane? Breaking off an engagement with the warden himself?

00:06:31Unbelievable. Poor choice. You're calling off the engagement?

00:06:35What, that surprises you? Hard to swallow?

00:06:38I know this must be a bitter pill. But let's not kid ourselves. Eagles don't roost with sparrows.

00:06:43I'm the youngest general in Federation history. I trained under the most formidable warrior alive, Marcus Stone, Grand Master of

00:06:51the Order.

00:06:51Marcus Stone's disciple? That's interesting.

00:06:54At present, I hold the Federation's central command. Alone. And in time, I will take the Order's helm and drive

00:07:01this nation to the apex of global power.

00:07:03Global power's apex? That's a bit of a reach, don't you think?

00:07:08A sparrow would think an eagle flies too high. Your world ends at these walls. You could never fathom the

00:07:13heights I'm bound for.

00:07:14Face it. You're a washed-up heir hiding in this nowhere prison, barking orders at a pack of nobles.

00:07:20It's sad, really. We're not even playing the same game.

00:07:22Can't argue with that. Not the same game.

00:07:24Good. You know your place. The kind of man I'd respect is either Solomon Gray, the richest man on the

00:07:29planet running a global empire, or my master, Marcus Stone, invincible at the helm of the Order.

00:07:33You? Even if I had the stomach for it, would you have the spine? He'd need ten lifetimes just to

00:07:38earn the right to polish your boots.

00:07:42As compensation, I'll leave you three gifts.

00:07:46Here's ten million dollars. Should keep you comfortable in this backwater for the rest of your days.

00:07:50And a Lazarus pill, brewed by the legendary Dr. Lazarus before he vanished.

00:07:56One dose, one resurrection. Use it wisely.

00:07:59Finally, my general's badge.

00:08:02Bring it to me, and I'll do you three favors.

00:08:05No questions, no strings.

00:08:07What a waste on trash like you.

00:08:10You ought to be kissing the ground she walks in, not standing there like a dead fish.

00:08:18He wouldn't dare object.

00:08:20A small-time warden in a nowhere prison, next to the Federation's youngest general, he's not even the dirt under

00:08:27your boots.

00:08:28Is this woman insane? Breaking off an engagement with the warden himself?

00:10:04Bring it to me, and I'll do you three favors.

00:10:07No questions, no strings.

00:10:09What a waste on trash like you.

00:10:12You ought to be kissing the ground she walks in, not standing there like a dead fish.

00:10:23I'm so sorry, sir. Let me get you a blanket right away.

00:10:26It's fine.

00:10:33You shameless stalker! Hanging around like a leech!

00:10:36The General already told you, you're a fish out of water. You're not even in her league.

00:10:39You deaf or what?

00:10:40Funny, I was about to say the same.

00:10:42Running into you everywhere. What a curse.

00:10:44You!

00:10:45Enough. He's been buried in that prison so long, he has no clue who I really am.

00:10:48Once it sinks in, he'll slink off on his own.

00:10:51You and I are never going to happen.

00:10:52Drop the delusion and stay out of my way.

00:10:55Unless you enjoy being humiliated.

00:11:00General Cross, you chatted with this guy long enough. He must mean something to you.

00:11:05You took my brother, now I'm taking him. Surrender or he bleeds.

00:11:09The Phantom? Number two on the global Most Wanted?

00:11:13Your brother's the Dreadlord?

00:11:15I've got nothing to do with him.

00:11:17If you want to fight, face me.

00:11:18No need to drag a nobody into this.

00:11:22General, be careful.

00:11:24This is all your fault.

00:11:26If anything happens to the General, I will end you myself.

00:11:29Phantom, don't you know who you're dealing with?

00:11:31She took down the Dreadlord alone.

00:11:33You dare attack her? You're dead.

00:11:35Ha! The only man who ever put me in my place was that one in the Abyss.

00:11:39Everyone else, I kill whoever I please.

00:11:41Starting with her!

00:11:51Oh, crap.

00:11:53It's him.

00:11:54I'm dead.

00:11:55Run. Now.

00:11:57You got lucky today.

00:11:58I'm in a good mood. I'll let you live.

00:12:00Don't ever cross me again.

00:12:04General!

00:12:05He booked it!

00:12:06The bastard just vanished!

00:12:08That makes no sense.

00:12:10Why would he just run?

00:12:12Isn't it obvious?

00:12:14Your presence alone terrified him.

00:12:16A petty assassin is nothing compared to you.

00:12:18Hey, dead weight.

00:12:19Cat got your tongue?

00:12:20Too scared to even squeak?

00:12:22That little stunt?

00:12:23Please.

00:12:26You literally pissed yourself and you're still playing tough?

00:12:29If the General hadn't scared off the Phantom, you'd be a smear on the floor.

00:12:32Get on your knees and thank her!

00:12:34Let it go.

00:12:34The Phantom came for me.

00:12:36People at my level deal with this daily.

00:12:38For someone like him, it must have been a tsunami.

00:12:40Losing control is understandable.

00:12:43Ashfernd, I hope today's little scare won't leave you scarred for life.

00:12:45Let's go.

00:12:51The Phantom, you son of a bitch.

00:12:53I'm sending someone to drag your ass back to the At-Bus.

00:12:55Add another ten years.

00:13:06Arca Stone greets the Master's return.

00:13:09Not bad.

00:13:10You actually made it to Ascendant.

00:13:13All thanks to you, Master.

00:13:15I want to formally become your disciple.

00:13:17Please give me a shot.

00:13:18Fine.

00:13:20You barely scrape by.

00:13:22Thank you, Master.

00:13:22The ceremony's set for tomorrow night.

00:13:25Victoria's handling everything.

00:13:26She's dying to meet you.

00:13:27Dying to meet me?

00:13:29That'll be entertaining.

00:13:32For the ceremony, I've invited the city's elite.

00:13:35This is your black card invitation.

00:13:36The only one of its kind.

00:13:39Good.

00:13:39You haven't been back in years.

00:13:41I've arranged the finest state in the city, the Crown.

00:13:43Hope it's up to your standards.

00:13:44Thoughtful.

00:13:45One more thing.

00:13:45The Whitmorns are hosting a charity gala tonight.

00:13:47Prepare three donations delivered to the Whitmore estate.

00:13:49The Whitmorns?

00:13:51Understood.

00:13:51I'll handle it right away.

00:14:00Victoria, prepare three top-lead donations.

00:14:03Get them to the Whitmore estate immediately.

00:14:04Yes, Master.

00:14:05Right away.

00:14:06To Lady Whitmore.

00:14:07May her name live on forever.

00:14:09Thank you all for attending.

00:14:11Tonight, I have a special announcement regarding my granddaughter, Selina.

00:14:16We heard you're finding a match for the city's most beautiful woman.

00:14:19Wouldn't miss this for the world.

00:14:20Correct.

00:14:21Tonight, I'm choosing a worthy husband for Selina.

00:14:25Someone who upholds the Whitmore legacy.

00:14:27Grandmother.

00:14:28Grandfather already arranged my engagement.

00:14:31Drake Ash...

00:14:31Silence!

00:14:33Your grandfather is gone.

00:14:34I run this house now.

00:14:35Drake Ashfield is astray his own family throughout.

00:14:38No money, no power, no name.

00:14:40He'll never set foot in this family.

00:14:42Listen to your grandmother, dear.

00:14:43Drake's a nobody.

00:14:45Brandon Hale wants you.

00:14:47The Hales are connected to Solomon Gray's empire.

00:14:49You should be grateful.

00:14:51Mother...

00:14:52Father made that engagement himself.

00:14:54We became...

00:14:55I said enough!

00:14:56If that worthless fool dares show his face here,

00:14:59I'll have him carried out on a stredger!

00:15:03Drake Ashfield.

00:15:04Here to wish Lady Whitfield a long and prosperous life.

00:15:14Wow, real tough guy.

00:15:18So we're all not worthy enough to make you kneel, huh?

00:15:20Not worthy?

00:15:21The Howard family controls every magic core mine in this city.

00:15:25If I cut off supply, every summoner in Valon will be on their knees begging me.

00:15:29And a loser who can't even light a summonation arm says I'm not worthy?

00:15:32The Sterling family runs all summon beast trade in Valon.

00:15:36One word from me and every wild mercery will tear you apart.

00:15:38Who the hell do you think you are?

00:15:40Why waste breath on him?

00:15:42Any contract scroll from the Morell family is worth more than his sad little life.

00:15:45If we don't break him today, where's our pride?

00:15:49Hughes, stop this madness.

00:15:51Do you want to die here?

00:15:53Get on your knees and apologize to the three heads of houses, now!

00:15:59Even if your ancestors climbed out of their greaves,

00:16:03they still wouldn't be worthy of ordering me around.

00:16:07What a boast!

00:16:20Tear him apart, your arms!

00:16:33He's ruining the ceremony!

00:16:35He's ruining the ceremony!

00:16:46He's ruining the ceremony!

00:16:58He's ruining the ceremony!

00:17:00He's ruining the ceremony!

00:17:35He's ruining the ceremony!

00:17:40He's ruining the ceremony!

00:17:44He's ruining the ceremony!

00:17:45General Whitmore gave his word, and you just toss it aside?

00:17:48No wonder this family's been sliding downhill ever since he stepped down.

00:17:52Nonsense!

00:17:53Under my watch, this family's been thriving!

00:17:56Thriving?

00:17:57That's because I've been pulling strings behind the scenes.

00:18:01Without me, the Whitmosters would have been gobbled up ages ago.

00:18:04Lies!

00:18:05You expect me to believe this family owes everything to a nobody like you?

00:18:10Absolutely.

00:18:12Delusional!

00:18:13Get this man out of my sight!

00:18:16Presenting Mr. Brandon Hale!

00:18:18Brandon Hale.

00:18:19His family runs the local branch of Solomon Gray's empire.

00:18:22They're practically royalty around here.

00:18:23I heard he's been chasing Selina for years.

00:18:25Looks like tonight's the night.

00:18:27Lady Whitmore, apologies for my tardiness.

00:18:30Not at all!

00:18:32The honor is all mine, Mr. Hale.

00:18:34I was just meeting with General Cross.

00:18:37Took a bit longer than expected.

00:18:39General Cross?

00:18:41The youngest general in Federation history?

00:18:44The very same.

00:18:44You may not have heard.

00:18:45Marcus Stone, Grandmaster of the Order, has arrived in the city.

00:18:48He's about to formally become the disciple of the legendary Wolf King.

00:18:51It's the talk of the elite world.

00:18:52General Cross has marked his direct disciples handling the ceremony personally.

00:18:55She's sending invitation to every major player.

00:18:57I just picked up ours for the Hale family.

00:18:58That's why I was late.

00:18:59Good heavens!

00:19:00An invitation to the Wolf King ceremony!

00:19:04Brandon, you truly are extraordinary.

00:19:07It's nothing, really.

00:19:09But word is, the Wolf King himself will attend.

00:19:11If I can make a connection, the Hale family could skyrocket to the top of the Federation overnight.

00:19:19And what makes you think the Wolf King would give a damn about a small fry like you?

00:19:28And this, a partnership agreement with Solomon Gray's corporation, worth at least 10 million.

00:19:34I heard the Whitmills have been struggling since the General passed.

00:19:37With a deal from the biggest corporation on the planet, the family's future is secure.

00:19:45Brandon, this is, this is beyond generous.

00:19:48You're a godsend.

00:19:50Brandon, you're incredible.

00:19:53Over 10 million in gifts.

00:19:55Selina, look at what he's done.

00:19:57And look at that worthless nobody.

00:19:59Get over here and stand with Brandon.

00:20:01Oh, Helen, don't be so hard on him.

00:20:04I'm sure Drake's got something wonderful prepared too.

00:20:06True, right?

00:20:09Drake, let's go.

00:20:10Ignore him.

00:20:13I did prepare something better.

00:20:15But this junk doesn't even deserve table space.

00:20:26How dare you!

00:20:29Drake Ashfield, you're a dead man walking!

00:20:32You worthless animal!

00:20:34How could you?

00:20:35Drake, what have you done?

00:20:39Three minutes.

00:20:40Get my gifts to the Whitemore estate.

00:20:42Now.

00:20:43Drake, run!

00:20:44You destroyed his gifts.

00:20:46He won't let this go.

00:20:49Selina, relax.

00:20:51Just watch.

00:20:52You son of a bitch!

00:20:54I'll skin you alive for this!

00:20:57Delivery for the gala!

00:21:01First up, a deed to a $500 million vineyard estate in Bordeaux.

00:21:06Next, a flawless, top-grade bloodstone, valued at $500 million.

00:21:11And finally, a 10% equity stake in Grey Corporation, valued at $1 billion.

00:21:17Impossible!

00:21:19Who?

00:21:21Who sent such extraordinary gifts?

00:21:24Selina, they're in your name for grandmother.

00:21:27Happy?

00:21:28Drake, you did all this?

00:21:30Drake Ashford actually pulled this off?

00:21:32He completely wiped the floor with Brandon!

00:21:34Impossible!

00:21:35This is nearly $20 million!

00:21:38A prison warden couldn't afford this!

00:21:40No way!

00:21:40Brandon, don't project your limitations onto me.

00:21:44You're out of your league.

00:21:46Oh my...

00:21:47Drake, darling!

00:21:49These gifts are really from you?

00:21:51You're extraordinary!

00:21:53Selina, go be with Drake.

00:21:55I fully support you, too.

00:21:56Drake, this is too much.

00:21:59Don't stretch yourself thin.

00:22:02Don't worry, sir.

00:22:03I know what I'm doing.

00:22:06Grandmother, are you satisfied?

00:22:09Satisfied?

00:22:09Yes, absolutely satisfied.

00:22:13Ha ha ha ha ha!

00:22:17Big deal.

00:22:19They're yours.

00:22:20So what?

00:22:22Grandmother!

00:22:23This is an invitation to the Wolf King's initiation ceremony.

00:22:27Priceless!

00:22:29This invitation is the golden ticket to the Upper Echelon.

00:22:32If you let Selene marry me, it's yours.

00:22:34Brandon, you're serious?

00:22:36You'd really give this to us?

00:22:38Absolutely.

00:22:38The Hales have two.

00:22:40I'm happy to share one with the Whitmos.

00:22:46You, you're crazy!

00:22:48That invitation is a gesture of respect to General Cross, to Marcus Stone, and to the Wolf King himself!

00:22:55You're a dead man!

00:22:58Drake Ashfield, you've lost your mind.

00:23:02You deserve to die!

00:23:08Get the carriage!

00:23:09Now, to the ceremony!

00:23:14That bitch, Selene.

00:23:16Thinks she can have Master all to herself?

00:23:22Tell my people to get ready right now.

00:23:25Prepare a little gift for Master.

00:23:28I'm going to that ceremony, too.

00:23:36Miss, the ceremony's about to start.

00:23:38If he keeps causing trouble, you're going to get dragged into this, too.

00:23:42Hughes, stop this.

00:23:44Do you really want to push this past the point of no return?

00:23:46Point of no return?

00:23:47You're just scared I'll ruin your little shot at being a Temple disciple.

00:23:51Yes.

00:23:52You know exactly how much this means to me.

00:23:56That important?

00:23:58Important enough to throw away years of us being together just like that?

00:24:02I don't have a choice.

00:24:04You have no idea what you just threw away.

00:24:07Stop talking, Big!

00:24:08You keep this up, and you're going to get yourself killed!

00:24:15My life?

00:24:24Right here.

00:24:26Let's see who dares try to take him.

00:24:32Drake, why would you do that?

00:24:34You just made it worse!

00:24:36Relax.

00:24:37It's just a piece of paper.

00:24:39Funny thing, I've got the same thing right here.

00:24:42Black card.

00:24:43Straight from Marcus Stone.

00:24:50This is really an invitation to the ceremony?

00:24:53And it's a black card?

00:24:54Impossible!

00:24:55Marcus Stone wouldn't give you the time of day, let alone a black card!

00:24:59It's obviously a fake!

00:25:01This, it has Marcus Stone's personal seal.

00:25:04It doesn't look forged.

00:25:06Brandon, anything else to say?

00:25:08This can't be real!

00:25:11You...

00:25:12Who dares forge a black card invitation?

00:25:20General Cross, what an honor we weren't expecting you.

00:25:24Please forgive the humble reception.

00:25:28Grandmother, please.

00:25:29General Whitmore was a great man.

00:25:31My own master once served under him.

00:25:34On Master Stone's orders, I've prepared these three donations for your gala.

00:25:38I trust they're acceptable.

00:25:40Wait.

00:25:41Wait.

00:25:45Those gifts were sent by General Cross?

00:25:48On Marcus Stone's orders?

00:25:50So, they weren't from Drake at all?

00:25:52Drake, what's going on?

00:25:55Isn't it obvious?

00:25:57Drake Ashford, you shameless fraud!

00:25:59You tried to take credit for Marcus Stone's gifts.

00:26:03And that black card must be forged too!

00:26:12Ashford, you've crossed the line.

00:26:17Thank you all for attending the initiation ceremony of Grandmaster Marcus Stone, leader of the Order.

00:26:24The honor is ours, General Cross.

00:26:26To witness the Grandmaster take a master, truly, a once-in-a-lifetime event.

00:26:30On behalf of my father, Victorm Kozov, and the Kozov Syndicate, congratulations to Master Stone.

00:26:37If the Wolf King weren't in this city, none of you Smallgut would even be here.

00:26:41Keep your mouths shut when the Grandmaster arrives.

00:26:44And if you so much as breathe wrong in front of the Wolf King, don't bother calling for help.

00:26:52That must be Master Stone!

00:26:57Grandmaster, Victoria Kroos, at your service.

00:27:02All hail Grandmaster Stone!

00:27:07Well, well, look at that.

00:27:10Proper respect, not bad.

00:27:16You!

00:27:17What the hell are you doing here?

00:27:19Crashing this ceremony?

00:27:21You've got balls, Ashvin!

00:27:22Who the hell is this clown?

00:27:24He made us bow to him?

00:27:25I'll rip his head off!

00:27:28Easy.

00:27:29This is the General's party.

00:27:32Better deal with it.

00:27:34Drake, what are you trying to prove?

00:27:37You want my attention?

00:27:39It won't work.

00:27:40Because I won't spare you a second glance.

00:27:42General, let me shut this trash up!

00:27:45No.

00:27:46He's just a clown begging for attention.

00:27:48Master Stone and the Wolf King will be here any minute.

00:27:50Don't make a scene.

00:27:52Let him stand in the corner and watch.

00:27:59Drake, I'm letting you stay out of mercy.

00:28:02Don't mistake it for anything else.

00:28:03No matter how hard you try to show off in front of me, it's pointless.

00:28:06We are not, and will never be, from the same world.

00:28:10Victoria, you're flattering yourself.

00:28:11I'm not here for you.

00:28:13Arrogant prick!

00:28:14The General spares your life and you still run your mouth!

00:28:18General Cross!

00:28:19This lowlife disrespected you.

00:28:21Let me put him down!

00:28:23Please, General Cross.

00:28:24I apologize for him.

00:28:25He doesn't know the etiquette.

00:28:26This woman clearly cares about you.

00:28:28You throw a tantrum for your ego and she has to beg on your behalf.

00:28:31Pathetic.

00:28:32For Salima's sake, I'll let this slide.

00:28:34But know your place.

00:28:35Sit in the back.

00:28:36I'll sit wherever I want.

00:28:47Drake!

00:28:48That chair is reserved for the Wolf King!

00:28:51Get off!

00:28:52Now!

00:28:52He's lost it!

00:28:53Does he actually think he's the Wolf King?

00:28:55When Master Stone sees this, he'll tear that bastard limb from limb!

00:29:00Drake!

00:29:00Please, please, just come down!

00:29:03Off the throne.

00:29:05Or die.

00:29:18Grand Master, Victoria Cross at your service.

00:29:21All hail, Grand Master Stone!

00:29:33Serves him right.

00:29:35He had it coming.

00:29:36Happy now?

00:29:38You pushed this all the way here.

00:29:42Weren't you just bragging my time was up?

00:29:45All I see is you about to die.

00:29:47Where's this end of mine, huh?

00:29:48You're dead meat!

00:29:54Relax.

00:29:55What's coming for you is right outside that door.

00:30:00You actually think you can get Lord Bart and my dad in here to put me in my place?

00:30:05Yep.

00:30:05Arrogant idiot!

00:30:06Go dream about that in hell!

00:30:09Be reborn.

00:30:21Who do you think you are?

00:30:24Who do you think you are?

00:30:30Who do you think you are?

00:30:36Who do you think you are?

00:30:42Master, apologies.

00:30:44There's been an interruption.

00:30:45This man took the Wolf King's seat.

00:30:47I'll have him removed immediately.

00:30:49Master Stone, this nobody's been disrupting your ceremony since he walked in.

00:30:53Please, deal with him!

00:30:58Since when do I take orders from you?

00:31:01Sir, is everything alright?

00:31:03Sir?

00:31:05Why is Master calling him Sir?

00:31:09Not in the mood.

00:31:11Call it off.

00:31:13Yes, Master.

00:31:17My Master, the Wolf King, has declined to attend.

00:31:21The ceremony is postponed indefinitely.

00:31:25Master, how can this be?

00:31:27Everything was prepared.

00:31:35It's Drake's fault!

00:31:37He ruined the ceremony and angered the Wolf King!

00:31:40Drake Ashfield destroyed Marcus Stone's ceremony.

00:31:45This bastard deserves to die!

00:31:47General, give the word!

00:31:49I'll drag him back myself!

00:31:51No.

00:31:51I gave him three favors.

00:31:53Consider this one used.

00:31:55Let him go.

00:31:56What matters now is getting the Wolf King to forgive Master Stone.

00:32:00Master said the Wolf King lives at the Crown Estate.

00:32:02We go there tonight and beg for his mercy.

00:32:05Yes, General!

00:32:06Master called him Sir.

00:32:09Sir, is everything alright?

00:32:11Why?

00:32:12There's gotta be a reason.

00:32:14But no.

00:32:15Can't be what I'm thinking.

00:32:17He's nobody.

00:32:20Knew it.

00:32:21Of course you'd end up mopping floors for a living.

00:32:24Whatever.

00:32:24Since you work here, is the Wolf King inside?

00:32:27I need to see him.

00:32:28He's not available.

00:32:29This isn't a game.

00:32:30The Wolf King pulled the plug on my Master's ceremony.

00:32:32I need to speak with him.

00:32:34Now.

00:32:34Go tell him Victoria Cross is here.

00:32:36I told you.

00:32:38He's busy.

00:32:40Try another day.

00:32:41Fine.

00:32:42Then deliver a message.

00:32:44Tell the Wolf King I'll be back every single day until he agrees to see me.

00:32:48And tell him my Master meant no disrespect.

00:32:51The whole ceremony was derailed by some idiot who barged in.

00:32:54Some idiot?

00:32:55Me?

00:32:56Who else?

00:32:57If you hadn't caused that scene, the Wolf King would have shown up and none of this would have happened.

00:33:01You owe Master Stone a damn apology.

00:33:03Victoria.

00:33:05Take some advice.

00:33:06Don't go around blaming people for things you don't understand.

00:33:10You might regret it one day.

00:33:11Regret?

00:33:12The only thing I regret was wasting my breath on a janitor.

00:33:15Pass along my message.

00:33:17Word for word.

00:33:18Let's go, Riley.

00:33:21You heard the General.

00:33:22Screw up the message, and I'll come back and break both your legs.

00:33:27Every day until I agree to see her, she's already seen me.

00:33:31She's too dense to figure it out.

00:33:37Good.

00:33:38You showed up.

00:33:39I've got a job for you.

00:33:41Call it a trial run.

00:33:42Pull it off, and I might reconsider the engagement.

00:33:46Really, Grandmother?

00:33:47Don't get your hopes up.

00:33:48Let me finish.

00:33:50Three years ago, the Kozlov syndicate grabbed one of our properties.

00:33:53Prime land worth a small fortune.

00:33:55Your grandfather couldn't get it back.

00:33:56Brandon couldn't either.

00:33:58If this nobody can talk Viktor Kozlov into handing it over, then maybe he's worth something.

00:34:02Mother, you can't be serious.

00:34:04Viktor Koznak is one of the most dangerous men alive.

00:34:07Drake walks in there.

00:34:08He's not coming back out.

00:34:09Exactly.

00:34:11He fails.

00:34:12He's useless.

00:34:14Engagement's dead in the water.

00:34:17A piece of land?

00:34:19That's your test?

00:34:20A piece of land?

00:34:22Boy, Viktor Kozlov could squash you like a bug with his pinky.

00:34:26Don't let your mouth write jerks your body can't cash.

00:34:31Selina, relax.

00:34:32I'll get the land back.

00:34:34Drake, the Kozlovs are dangerous.

00:34:36Dmitri alone is bad enough.

00:34:37His father is ten times worse.

00:34:39Promise me you'll be careful.

00:34:42Trust me.

00:34:48Well, well.

00:34:50Look who crawled out of the gutter.

00:34:52The clown from the ceremony.

00:34:54You've got some nerve showing your face here.

00:34:58Though I see you brought a little something for me.

00:35:01Miss Whitmore,

00:35:02you're even more stunning up close.

00:35:10Touch her,

00:35:11and you lose the hand.

00:35:13You let go!

00:35:15You know who my father is?

00:35:16Viktor Kozlov!

00:35:18You're a dead man!

00:35:20Drake!

00:35:22You broke his finger!

00:35:23That's Viktor Kozlov's son!

00:35:25Drake,

00:35:26we need to go

00:35:27before his men show up.

00:35:30Tell your old man

00:35:31the Whitmore property.

00:35:34I want it back in 24 hours.

00:35:36If I have to come to him myself,

00:35:38it won't be just one finger.

00:35:45Ashford!

00:35:46You're dead!

00:35:47My father will peel the skin off your bones!

00:35:50You hear me?

00:35:51Dead!

00:35:52You're dead!

00:35:55Hughes!

00:35:56You're crazy!

00:35:58You're beyond help!

00:35:59How dare you!

00:36:01Lord Bart is here in person,

00:36:02and you trash still dare say his name like that.

00:36:05You're begging to die.

00:36:08You have a death wish!

00:36:12Calm down, Lord Bart.

00:36:15I know this loser made you mad

00:36:16by saying your name,

00:36:18but don't take it out on me.

00:36:20Hopeless!

00:36:21Don't work yourself up.

00:36:24I'll handle this right now.

00:36:26Take care of this trash for good.

00:36:28Idiot.

00:36:31Miss,

00:36:33Lord Bart's furious.

00:36:34Even young Master Carl got hit.

00:36:36You have to stay away from Hughes.

00:36:39If you don't,

00:36:41you won't just miss out on the temple.

00:36:43Lord Bart might hold it against you too.

00:36:46Hughes,

00:36:47I tried to save you.

00:36:49Again and again.

00:36:51You're the one throwing your life away.

00:36:54I did everything I could.

00:36:56I have nothing to feel guilty about.

00:36:58From now on,

00:36:59what happens to you is none of my business.

00:37:03Lord Bart.

00:37:13Bart,

00:37:14Branch Master of the Summoner's Temple Ballon Branch.

00:37:17Greetings, Lord Hughes.

00:37:24Father,

00:37:25that bastard Drake Ashfield broke my finger.

00:37:28He said if you don't return the Whitmore land in 24 hours,

00:37:31he'll come back for more.

00:37:33You have to put him down.

00:37:34Drake Ashford?

00:37:35The disowned Ashford brat?

00:37:37Yes.

00:37:38A worthless nobody.

00:37:40He dared to threaten the Kozlov synthets.

00:37:43Father,

00:37:43give me the word.

00:37:44I'll bring you his head on a platter.

00:37:48You let a nobody break your finger

00:37:50and you come running to me?

00:37:53Pathetic.

00:37:54You carry the Kozlov name

00:37:55and you can't handle one man?

00:37:57You're an embarrassment.

00:37:59Father,

00:37:59that guy is unhinged.

00:38:00He's not normal.

00:38:02His grip alone...

00:38:03Enough.

00:38:03I'll handle this personally.

00:38:05Nobody threatens the Kozlov syndicate

00:38:07and gets away with it.

00:38:08Set up a meeting.

00:38:08Tell Drake Ashford if he wants the land,

00:38:11he comes to me himself.

00:38:12Tonight.

00:38:13The Eastern Warehouse.

00:38:14Yes, Father.

00:38:15I'll have 50 men waiting.

00:38:17He walks in,

00:38:18he doesn't walk out.

00:38:22Selena,

00:38:23you have to stop him.

00:38:25Viktor Kozlov doesn't play games.

00:38:27Drake broke his son's finger.

00:38:29That's not something the old man let slide.

00:38:31I know.

00:38:32But Drake told me to trust him.

00:38:34Every time I've doubted him,

00:38:35he's proven me wrong.

00:38:36Okay,

00:38:37I have to ask.

00:38:37Don't you think Drake's a little off?

00:38:40At the ceremony,

00:38:40Marcus Stone smacked Brandon

00:38:42for running his mouth

00:38:42but didn't say a word to Drake.

00:38:44In the Wolf King's estate,

00:38:45Drake lives there.

00:38:46That doesn't strike you as weird?

00:38:48What are you getting at?

00:38:49I'm saying,

00:38:51what if Drake isn't who everybody thinks he is?

00:38:54What if there's more to him than meets the eye?

00:38:58It's Drake!

00:39:01Selena,

00:39:02Viktor wants to meet tonight.

00:39:03The Eastern Warehouse.

00:39:05I'm going.

00:39:06Drake,

00:39:07it's a trap!

00:39:07He'll have men waiting!

00:39:09I know.

00:39:10Don't worry.

00:39:10I'll have your land deed back by midnight.

00:39:16I'm going with you.

00:39:19Then I'm coming too.

00:39:20If things go sideways,

00:39:22at least someone can call for backup.

00:39:28Shut your mouth!

00:39:29You have no idea who this man is.

00:39:31He is the warden of the abyss.

00:39:32I spent three years in that hell

00:39:34and this man owned every inch of it.

00:39:36Every single day,

00:39:37my life was in his hands.

00:39:38The abyss?

00:39:39The world's most terrifying prison?

00:39:41Father,

00:39:42you were in there?

00:39:43Yes.

00:39:44And this man could have ended me

00:39:46a thousand times over.

00:39:47He spared my life.

00:39:49He spared me.

00:39:51And you?

00:39:52You stole his fiancee's family land

00:39:54and tried to lay hands on her?

00:39:58You useless,

00:40:00brainless brat!

00:40:01You nearly got our whole family wiped!

00:40:03Wiped up the map!

00:40:04Master,

00:40:05this worthless son of mine

00:40:07has insulted you and your lady.

00:40:09His fate is yours to decide.

00:40:10Whatever you command,

00:40:12even his head,

00:40:12I will not object.

00:40:14I'm sorry.

00:40:16I didn't know.

00:40:17Please,

00:40:17please don't kill me.

00:40:19Kill you?

00:40:20Too easy.

00:40:21Victor,

00:40:21send him to the abyss.

00:40:23Three years.

00:40:24Let him taste what you went through.

00:40:26No!

00:40:26Father, please!

00:40:27Not the abyss!

00:40:28Anything but that!

00:40:29Shut up!

00:40:30This is the master's mercy!

00:40:32He could have ended you right here!

00:40:33Take it!

00:40:34Now,

00:40:35the Whitmore land.

00:40:37Master,

00:40:38the land deed is here.

00:40:39I'll transfer ownership back immediately.

00:40:41All back taxes,

00:40:42development fees,

00:40:43everything covered by the Kozlov Syndicate.

00:40:45Please accept my deepest apologies.

00:40:47One more thing.

00:40:48The Whitmore family is under my protection.

00:40:51Anyone,

00:40:52anyone at all,

00:40:54so much as looks at them wrong,

00:40:55I'm coming for you.

00:40:57Understood!

00:40:58The Kozlov Syndicate

00:41:00will guard the Whitmore family

00:41:02with our very lives!

00:41:14Drake!

00:41:15Are you okay?

00:41:16Are you hurt?

00:41:17Not a mark.

00:41:18Here,

00:41:18your land deed.

00:41:19It's back in the Whitmore name.

00:41:20This,

00:41:21this is real?

00:41:22Victor Kozlov just

00:41:23handed it over?

00:41:24He also agreed to cover

00:41:25all the back taxes and fees.

00:41:27And from now on,

00:41:29the Kozlov Syndicate

00:41:30answers to the Whitmoms.

00:41:32How,

00:41:33how is that possible?

00:41:35Victor Kozlov?

00:41:36The most feared man in the city

00:41:38just handed everything over?

00:41:40In ten minutes?

00:41:42Who the hell is Drake Ashfield?

00:41:44He walked into the lion's den alone

00:41:46and came out with everything.

00:41:47Victor wasn't just beat.

00:41:49He was scared.

00:41:50But scared of what?

00:41:52Unless Drake isn't who everyone thinks he is.

00:41:55Unless he's someone far bigger.

00:41:58I don't know how you did it,

00:42:00but

00:42:01thank you, Drake.

00:42:04I told you.

00:42:06Trust me.

00:42:11Grandmother,

00:42:12the land deed.

00:42:13Victor Kozlov returned it

00:42:15every inch.

00:42:16He's also covering

00:42:17all back taxes

00:42:18and development fees.

00:42:19This,

00:42:19this is real?

00:42:20Victor Kozlov,

00:42:22that old shark,

00:42:23actually handed it over?

00:42:27Impossible!

00:42:28Your grandfather spent years

00:42:30to get this back.

00:42:30Brandon went himself

00:42:31three times

00:42:32and got tossed out

00:42:33every single time.

00:42:34How could he possibly...

00:42:36How did you do it?

00:42:37You said it was a test.

00:42:38I passed.

00:42:39That's all that matters.

00:42:41A deal's a deal.

00:42:42I said I'd accept you

00:42:43if you got the land back.

00:42:44So as of today,

00:42:46the engagement is on.

00:42:48Grandmother.

00:42:49Mother!

00:42:49You can't be serious.

00:42:51We don't even know

00:42:52what he did.

00:42:53If he made some

00:42:54back alley deal with Kozlov,

00:42:55what if he sold us out?

00:42:57Enough.

00:42:57I don't care how.

00:42:59I care about the result.

00:43:00Your grandfather couldn't do it.

00:43:02Brandon couldn't do it.

00:43:03He did it in one day.

00:43:05Don't get comfortable.

00:43:07The engagement stands.

00:43:09For now.

00:43:10You still have more to prove.

00:43:13Fair enough.

00:43:17Lord Bart.

00:43:19The Wrynn family

00:43:20has served you loyally

00:43:21for years.

00:43:22Please, for old time's sake,

00:43:24spare the Wrynn family.

00:43:29Patriarch Bernard.

00:43:31Look at you

00:43:32groveling like this.

00:43:34Quite the change

00:43:35from how your son

00:43:35was strutting around

00:43:36like he owned the place

00:43:37just months ago.

00:43:39My lord.

00:43:49Father,

00:43:50what are you doing?

00:43:51You little beast!

00:43:52Bow down to Lord Hughes

00:43:54and apologize!

00:43:57I apologize!

00:44:00Don't.

00:44:01I can't bear his apology.

00:44:07Just a few minutes ago,

00:44:09your precious son

00:44:10was bragging to me

00:44:11about how powerful

00:44:12he and the Wrynn family are.

00:44:14Said he and all the big shops

00:44:15in Valon

00:44:16could sentence me to death

00:44:17in the name of

00:44:18every great house

00:44:19in the city.

00:44:22Sentence him to death!

00:44:24The Wrynn family

00:44:25really is something,

00:44:26aren't you?

00:44:27Daring to sentence

00:44:28Lord Hughes to death!

00:44:30Yes!

00:44:31Yes!

00:44:32Yes!

00:44:35Master,

00:44:35got something for you.

00:44:37Go ahead.

00:44:38Victoria's been at the gate

00:44:38every day,

00:44:39just like she promised.

00:44:40Today was day three.

00:44:41Two hours on her knees

00:44:42then she leaves.

00:44:43Still thinks you're the help.

00:44:45Persistence.

00:44:46That's one thing

00:44:47I can respect about her.

00:44:48There's more, Master.

00:44:49She's been digging

00:44:50into the abyss.

00:44:51Digging into what?

00:44:53Exactly.

00:44:53She's trying to uncover

00:44:54the Wolf King's real identity.

00:44:56Sent Riley to go through

00:44:57the prison records.

00:44:58So far, nothing.

00:44:59You've got those files

00:45:00sealed tight,

00:45:01but she's circling.

00:45:03asking about a warden

00:45:04who left three years ago.

00:45:05Let her dig.

00:45:06She won't find

00:45:07what I don't want her to see.

00:45:08With respect, Master.

00:45:10If she keeps pushing,

00:45:12she might connect the dots.

00:45:13Especially after the ceremony.

00:45:15She saw me hesitate before you.

00:45:17She's not stupid.

00:45:18She figures it out on her own.

00:45:20That's her ability.

00:45:21But she won't.

00:45:22Not yet.

00:45:23Her arrogance is a blindfold.

00:45:25She's so sure I'm beneath her

00:45:27she could trip over the truth

00:45:28and still call it a rock.

00:45:29One more thing, Master.

00:45:30Brandon Howell's been meeting

00:45:32with Helen Whitman frequently.

00:45:33I think they're cooking something up

00:45:35aimed at Selene

00:45:36and at you.

00:45:37Brandon,

00:45:38he never learns.

00:45:39Want me to shut it down?

00:45:40No.

00:45:42Let them make their move first.

00:45:44I want to see how deep

00:45:45they're willing to bury themselves.

00:45:52Chloe, black or navy?

00:45:54Selene, forget the dress.

00:45:56The real question is,

00:45:58is Drake even ready for this?

00:46:00There's a whole donation segment

00:46:02at the gala.

00:46:02Every big name's gonna bring

00:46:04something to the table.

00:46:05What's he got?

00:46:06A mop?

00:46:11I thought about that too.

00:46:13I offered to help him prep something.

00:46:14He just said,

00:46:15don't worry about it.

00:46:16Don't worry about it?

00:46:18Selene, the greys,

00:46:19the hails,

00:46:20the crosses,

00:46:20they'll all be there.

00:46:21If Drake walks in empty-handed,

00:46:23Grandmother will lose face

00:46:24in front of everyone.

00:46:25And Helen?

00:46:26She'll use it to bury him alive.

00:46:28I know Helen's planning something.

00:46:31Her and Brandon

00:46:31have been whispering for days.

00:46:34Every time I walk past,

00:46:35they clam up.

00:46:36Selene, listen to me.

00:46:37I've been thinking a lot

00:46:38about Drake lately.

00:46:40Victor Kozlov,

00:46:41the most dangerous man

00:46:42in this city,

00:46:42knelt to him.

00:46:43I saw it with my own eyes.

00:46:44Whatever Drake is,

00:46:45he's not nobody.

00:46:46But if he doesn't show his cards

00:46:48at that gala,

00:46:48Helen and Brandon

00:46:49are gonna eat him for breakfast.

00:46:51I know.

00:46:52But every time I try to help Drake,

00:46:54he says the same thing.

00:46:55Trust me.

00:46:56And every single time,

00:46:57he's been right.

00:46:58Then maybe it's time

00:46:59you actually trusted him.

00:47:01Wear the black one.

00:47:02That's way hotter.

00:47:05Brandon,

00:47:05tell me everything's locked in.

00:47:07The auction line-up,

00:47:09the seating,

00:47:10all of it.

00:47:11Locked,

00:47:11sealed,

00:47:12and delivered.

00:47:13Drake's planted front and center

00:47:14right next to the main stage.

00:47:16When the donation segment hits,

00:47:17every eye in the room

00:47:18is gonna be on it.

00:47:19And I made sure

00:47:20the MIR calls out

00:47:21the Whitmore family

00:47:22rep by name.

00:47:23No hiding,

00:47:23no excuses.

00:47:25Good.

00:47:26And Victoria Cross?

00:47:28Confirmed.

00:47:28I had a little bird

00:47:30whisper that the Wolf King

00:47:31might grace the gala

00:47:32with his presence.

00:47:33She'll be there,

00:47:35watching like a hawk.

00:47:36When Drake embarrass himself,

00:47:38she gets a front row seat

00:47:40to exactly what he is.

00:47:42Perfect.

00:47:43After tomorrow night,

00:47:45Mother won't have a choice.

00:47:46She'll have to kill the engagement.

00:47:48Drake Ashford?

00:47:50Done.

00:47:55Master,

00:47:56the charity gala's

00:47:57tomorrow night.

00:47:57I've confirmed.

00:47:58Brandon and Helen

00:47:59have set a trap.

00:48:00The donation portion

00:48:01is where they'll hit you.

00:48:02They're banking on you

00:48:03walking in with nothing

00:48:04and getting torn apart

00:48:05in front of every major family

00:48:06in the city.

00:48:07Let me guess.

00:48:09Victoria Cross

00:48:09is on the guest list too?

00:48:11Yes.

00:48:12Someone leaked

00:48:13that the Wolf King

00:48:14might appear.

00:48:15She'll be there,

00:48:16watching like a hawk.

00:48:17Brandon gives himself

00:48:17way too much credit.

00:48:18He's got Helen

00:48:19feeding him intel,

00:48:20Victoria swinging the big stick

00:48:22and the whole gala

00:48:22as his little showcase.

00:48:24Cute,

00:48:25for an amateur.

00:48:26Master,

00:48:26say the word

00:48:27and I'll shut it down.

00:48:29One call

00:48:29and that gala

00:48:30never happens.

00:48:32No.

00:48:33I'm going.

00:48:35You're attending

00:48:35in person.

00:48:39Brandon wants

00:48:39to humiliate me.

00:48:41Victoria wants

00:48:42to find the Wolf King.

00:48:43Helen wants

00:48:44to kill the engagement.

00:48:45Everyone's got a plan

00:48:46for tomorrow night.

00:48:48Only fair,

00:48:49I have one too.

00:48:50The donation segment,

00:48:52they want me

00:48:52to give something,

00:48:53so I will.

00:48:54Marcus,

00:48:55contact Catherine Laurent

00:48:56at Sotheby's Geneva.

00:48:58Tell her the Wolf King

00:48:59is cashing in a favor.

00:49:00Catherine Laurent,

00:49:02director of private sales.

00:49:04She owes you two

00:49:05from the Lickenstein deal.

00:49:06What are you after?

00:49:07The Sovereign's Heart.

00:49:09Have it brought

00:49:10from the Zurich Bolt.

00:49:11The Sovereign's Heart.

00:49:13The 62 Krayer

00:49:14of Habsburg Crown Diamond.

00:49:16You picked it up

00:49:17three years ago

00:49:17for 38 million.

00:49:19You're donating that?

00:49:20It's been collecting

00:49:21dust in a vault

00:49:21for three years.

00:49:22The time it earned

00:49:23its keep.

00:49:24Have Catherine

00:49:25escort it personally.

00:49:27Full Sovereign's

00:49:28security,

00:49:28level 5 clearance,

00:49:29G.I.I. papers,

00:49:30the whole package.

00:49:31Yes, Master.

00:49:33Anything else?

00:49:34One more thing.

00:49:35I need a suit.

00:49:37Nothing flashy,

00:49:38clean, simple.

00:49:39But the cufflinks?

00:49:40The Wolf King

00:49:41and Cigna ones.

00:49:42The set only five people

00:49:43on Earth would recognize.

00:49:44You want Victoria

00:49:45to see the cufflinks?

00:49:47I want to give her a chance.

00:49:49If she's sharp enough

00:49:50to notice,

00:49:51she deserves the truth.

00:49:52If she's not,

00:49:53that's on her.

00:49:59Lord Hughes,

00:50:00that can't be

00:50:00a serious request.

00:50:02Yeah, my lord,

00:50:03that's a pretty bad joke.

00:50:05You had no problem

00:50:06sentencing me to death,

00:50:07did you?

00:50:09What's so hard

00:50:09when sentencing yourselves?

00:50:11My lord,

00:50:12that was all a mistake.

00:50:13We'll pay you anything,

00:50:14everything we have,

00:50:15but asking us to die,

00:50:16that's too far.

00:50:18What if I

00:50:20insist?

00:50:21Hughes!

00:50:22Everyone here

00:50:23is the backbone of Valon.

00:50:24If you kill us,

00:50:25you'll tear the whole city apart.

00:50:28You think you can handle that?

00:50:33So be it.

00:50:35You're going too far.

00:50:37You think we won't

00:50:38take you down with us?

00:50:42Dare you!

00:50:44Lord Bart,

00:50:45I know he's your guest,

00:50:47but if you're going to kill us

00:50:48and destroy Valon in the process,

00:50:50I won't stand for it!

00:50:55Welcome, welcome.

00:50:57So glad you could make it.

00:50:58Enjoy yourselves tonight.

00:51:03General Cross!

00:51:04An honor, truly.

00:51:06I've got you front row,

00:51:07best seat in the house.

00:51:08Brandon,

00:51:08I didn't come for the champagne.

00:51:11You said the Wolf King might show.

00:51:13Is that real,

00:51:13or are you just filling seats?

00:51:15I can't confirm anything, General,

00:51:16but my sources say

00:51:17someone very close to the Wolf King

00:51:18will be in attendance tonight,

00:51:19someone important.

00:51:21Important how?

00:51:22That, I'll leave for you to judge.

00:51:23Just keep your eyes open tonight, General.

00:51:30He's here.

00:51:31Basic suit,

00:51:32no bling,

00:51:33just as we figured.

00:51:34A beggar at a king's table.

00:51:36Perfect.

00:51:36Let him get comfortable.

00:51:38Donation section's when we strike.

00:51:45Drake Ashford?

00:51:46What's he doing here?

00:51:47And why is he front and center?

00:51:48Drake,

00:51:49everyone is staring at us.

00:51:52Let him look.

00:51:55Ladies and gentlemen,

00:51:57welcome to the Whitmore Group

00:51:58Annual Charity Gala.

00:51:59Tonight,

00:52:00we celebrate generosity,

00:52:02community,

00:52:02and the spirit of giving.

00:52:04Later this evening,

00:52:05we'll move to our donation section,

00:52:06and I hear this year's offerings

00:52:07will be nothing short of spectacular.

00:52:10Enjoy your last night, Ashford.

00:52:12One hour from now,

00:52:13you're done.

00:52:20Hold it!

00:52:21I've got a question for Mr. Ashford!

00:52:23Drake,

00:52:24stunning donation indeed,

00:52:25but I think everyone here deserves to know.

00:52:27How does a guy with no job,

00:52:29no family name,

00:52:30and no assets get his hands on a $38 million

00:52:32Habsburg diamond?

00:52:33He's got a point.

00:52:35Where'd that diamond really come from?

00:52:36So let me ask the question

00:52:38everyone's dying to ask.

00:52:40Drake Ashford,

00:52:41did you steal it,

00:52:42or did someone hand it to you

00:52:43in exchange for something

00:52:44we don't know about?

00:52:45Brandon,

00:52:46that's enough!

00:52:46Sotheby's sent their own director

00:52:48with full authentication!

00:52:49How dare you!

00:52:49Selina,

00:52:50I'm just looking out for your family.

00:52:51If that diamond's got a dirty past,

00:52:53the Whitom name gets dragged through the mud

00:52:55right along with it.

00:52:56You want to know where the diamond came from?

00:52:58I bought it,

00:52:58three years ago.

00:52:59Private Sotheby's auction in Geneva.

00:53:01$38 million.

00:53:02Cash.

00:53:05You bought it?

00:53:07$38 million?

00:53:08Drake Ashford,

00:53:09the man who can't afford a decent suit,

00:53:11dropped $38 million on a diamond?

00:53:13Do you take us for fools?

00:53:14Mr. Hale,

00:53:15since you seem to struggle with facts,

00:53:16let me clarify.

00:53:17This is the original transaction record

00:53:19from Sotheby's Geneva,

00:53:20dated three years ago.

00:53:21The buyer is listed as

00:53:22Mr. Drake Ashford,

00:53:23payment wire transfer,

00:53:24in full.

00:53:25And this is a personal letter

00:53:26from our chatman,

00:53:27Sir William Hargo,

00:53:27confirming Mr. Ashford's identity

00:53:29as the buyer

00:53:29and a long-standing client

00:53:30of Sotheby's private flex.

00:53:32Sotheby's has been in business

00:53:33for 280 years.

00:53:35We don't authenticate fakes,

00:53:36and we don't mistake our clients.

00:53:38If you wish to question

00:53:39our integrity further,

00:53:40feel free to chat with Sir William personally.

00:53:43I wouldn't recommend it.

00:53:49Welcome, welcome.

00:53:50So glad you could make it.

00:53:52Enjoy yourselves tonight.

00:53:56General Cross,

00:53:58an honor, truly.

00:53:59I've got you front row,

00:54:00best seat in the house.

00:54:01Brandon,

00:54:02I didn't come for the champagne.

00:54:04You said the Wolf King might show.

00:54:06Is that real,

00:54:07or are you just filling seats?

00:54:08I can't confirm anything, General.

00:54:10But my sources say

00:54:11someone very close to the Wolf King

00:54:12will be in attendance tonight.

00:54:13Someone important.

00:54:14Important how?

00:54:15That, I'll leave for you to judge.

00:54:17Just keep your eyes open tonight, General.

00:54:24He's here.

00:54:25Basic suit,

00:54:26no bling,

00:54:26just as we figured.

00:54:27A beggar at a king's table.

00:54:29Perfect.

00:54:30Let him get comfortable.

00:54:31Donation sections when we strike.

00:54:38Drake Ashford?

00:54:39What's he doing here?

00:54:40And why is he front and center?

00:54:42Drake,

00:54:43everyone is staring at us.

00:54:45Let him look.

00:54:49Ladies and gentlemen,

00:54:50welcome to the Whitmore Group Annual Charity Gala.

00:54:53Tonight,

00:54:53we celebrate generosity,

00:54:55community,

00:54:56and the spirit of giving.

00:54:57Later this evening,

00:54:58we'll move to our donation section,

00:54:59and I hear this year's offerings

00:55:01will be nothing short of spectacular.

00:55:03Enjoy your last night, Ashford.

00:55:05One hour from now,

00:55:06you're done.

00:55:09Ladies and gentlemen,

00:55:10the moment you've all been waiting for,

00:55:12our annual charity donation segment.

00:55:14As tradition demands,

00:55:16each family representative

00:55:17will present their gift.

00:55:18Let's kick things off.

00:55:20First up,

00:55:21the Grays,

00:55:22represented tonight

00:55:23by Mr. Jonathan Gray.

00:55:26The Grays are proud to donate

00:55:28an original Alexander Voss oil

00:55:30valued at $3 million

00:55:32for the children.

00:55:35Exquisite.

00:55:36Next,

00:55:37the Hales,

00:55:38Mr. Brandon Hale.

00:55:39The Hales

00:55:41present a pair of 18th century

00:55:43Faberge Imperial eggs,

00:55:45Christie certified,

00:55:47appraised at $5 million.

00:55:54$5 million.

00:55:55Let's see our Whitmore representative

00:55:57top that.

00:55:58Magnificent.

00:55:59And now,

00:56:00the crosses.

00:56:01General Victoria Cross.

00:56:03The Cross family

00:56:04donates Storm Brand.

00:56:06Our ancestral blade

00:56:08passed down

00:56:09for three generations.

00:56:10Priceless,

00:56:12but appraised tonight

00:56:13at $8 million.

00:56:16$8 million.

00:56:17The Cross family's

00:56:18generosity is unmatched.

00:56:22Thank you, General.

00:56:23And now,

00:56:24representing the Whitmounds tonight,

00:56:26please welcome

00:56:27Mr. Drake Ashford.

00:56:30Here we go.

00:56:33Drake.

00:56:36Watch.

00:56:37Watch.

00:56:52Look at him.

00:56:54empty-handed.

00:56:55No box.

00:56:56No assistant.

00:56:57Nothing.

00:56:58He's done.

00:56:58Just wait.

00:56:59Let him dig his own grave.

00:57:01My donation's on its way.

00:57:02Give it a minute.

00:57:04On its way?

00:57:06Did he forget to pack it?

00:57:08This is embarrassing.

00:57:09The Whitmore family's representative

00:57:11can even prepare a donation in advance?

00:57:13Maybe someone should loan Drake a few bucks.

00:57:15At least he'd have something to put on the table.

00:57:21Mother, this is humiliating.

00:57:23The whole city's watching.

00:57:24Maybe we should...

00:57:27Is that...

00:57:28The Sotheby's seal?

00:57:30The Sotheby's sent something here?

00:57:31For Drake Ashford?

00:57:36This...

00:57:37This is...

00:57:37The Sovereign's heart.

00:57:38A 62-cran deep blue diamond

00:57:40from the Habsburg Crown Collection.

00:57:42Lost for over a century.

00:57:43Resurfaced three years ago

00:57:44at a private Sotheby's auction in Geneva.

00:57:46Perched by an anonymous bidder

00:57:47for...

00:57:4838 million dollars.

00:57:56Hold it!

00:57:57I've got a question for Mr. Ashford!

00:57:59Drake.

00:58:00Stunning donation indeed.

00:58:01But I think everyone here deserves to know.

00:58:03How does a guy with no job,

00:58:05no family name,

00:58:05and no assets

00:58:06get his hands on a

00:58:0738 million dollar Habsburg diamond?

00:58:09He's got a point.

00:58:11Where'd that diamond really come from?

00:58:12So let me ask the question

00:58:14everyone's dying to ask.

00:58:15Drake Ashford,

00:58:16did you steal it?

00:58:18Or did someone hand it to you

00:58:19in exchange for something

00:58:20we don't know about?

00:58:21Brandon, that's enough!

00:58:22Sotheby's sent their own director

00:58:23with full authentication!

00:58:25How dare you!

00:58:25Selena, I'm just looking out

00:58:26for your family.

00:58:27If that diamond's got a dirty past,

00:58:29the Widom name gets dragged

00:58:30through the mud right along with it.

00:58:31You want to know

00:58:32where the diamond came from?

00:58:33I bought it.

00:58:34Three years ago.

00:58:35Five at Sotheby's auction in Geneva.

00:58:3738 million.

00:58:38Cash.

00:58:41You bought it?

00:58:4338 million?

00:58:44Drake Ashford,

00:58:45the man who can't afford

00:58:46a decent suit,

00:58:47dropped 38 million on a diamond?

00:58:49Do you take us for fools?

01:00:51I wouldn't recommend it.

01:01:01Drake.

01:01:02Victoria.

01:01:03Shouldn't you be inside

01:01:04enjoying the party?

01:01:05I need to ask you something

01:01:07and I need you

01:01:08to be straight with me.

01:01:09Go ahead.

01:01:13Your cuff clinks.

01:01:14The wolf's head.

01:01:15Black tustanial.

01:01:16I've only seen that mark

01:01:17once before in my master's study.

01:01:19Stamped on a document

01:01:20bearing the wolf king's

01:01:21personal seal.

01:01:22That symbol belongs

01:01:23to one man in this world.

01:01:24And?

01:01:25Drake Ashfield.

01:01:26Are you the wolf king?

01:01:27Let me ask you something first.

01:01:29If I said yes,

01:01:30what would you do about it?

01:01:32What?

01:01:32What do you mean?

01:01:33You tore up my invite

01:01:34in front of 300 people.

01:01:36You called me a clown.

01:01:37You said I'd never measure up

01:01:38to your world.

01:01:39You knelt at my gate

01:01:40for three nights

01:01:41and begged a janitor

01:01:42to deliver your messages.

01:01:43So if I really am

01:01:44the wolf king,

01:01:45how exactly do you plan

01:01:46to deal with that?

01:01:47You,

01:01:48you haven't answered

01:01:49my question.

01:01:51I'm not saying yes

01:01:52and I'm not saying no.

01:01:54Some answers you've got

01:01:55to find on your own,

01:01:56Victoria.

01:01:57Now get back in there.

01:01:59Night's not over.

01:02:00If he's the wolf king,

01:02:02then everything I said,

01:02:03everything I did,

01:02:04I called him a janitor

01:02:05to his face.

01:02:06I told him he was beneath me.

01:02:07I ripped up his invitation.

01:02:09I knelt at his gate

01:02:10and begged a janitor

01:02:11to let me in

01:02:12and all along

01:02:13he was standing right there

01:02:14watching me make

01:02:15a fool of myself.

01:02:17Please,

01:02:18don't let it be true.

01:02:24Drake,

01:02:25where'd you disappear to?

01:02:26I've been looking everywhere.

01:02:28Stepped out for some air.

01:02:30Nothing major.

01:02:31Drake,

01:02:31I owe you an apology.

01:02:32I was out of line earlier

01:02:33questioning that diamond

01:02:34like I did.

01:02:35Clearly,

01:02:36I underestimated you.

01:02:37Let me buy you a drink.

01:02:38Make it up to you.

01:02:39Brandon,

01:02:39drop the act.

01:02:40We both know

01:02:41what you were trying

01:02:42to pull tonight.

01:02:44I don't know

01:02:45what you mean.

01:02:46The seating,

01:02:48front and center,

01:02:50so everyone could watch me

01:02:51crash and burst.

01:02:53The MRI calling my name

01:02:55right after Victoria's

01:02:56eight million dollar sword

01:02:58for maximum contrast.

01:03:00next time you set a trap.

01:03:02Make damn sure

01:03:03the mouse isn't actually

01:03:04a wolf.

01:03:06A wolf?

01:03:07Think you're a wolf?

01:03:09Fine.

01:03:10You won tonight,

01:03:11but I'll find out

01:03:12who's backing you

01:03:13and I'll tear them

01:03:14away from you

01:03:15one by one.

01:03:19Drake Ashford,

01:03:20the sovereign's heart,

01:03:2138 million,

01:03:22a Habsburg crown diamond.

01:03:24You are absolutely insane.

01:03:26I am officially

01:03:27your number one fan.

01:03:29Chloe,

01:03:30hands off my fiance.

01:03:31Selena,

01:03:32seriously,

01:03:33where did you find this man?

01:03:35Viktor Kozlov kneels to him.

01:03:37Sotheby's chairman

01:03:37writes him personal letters.

01:03:38He tosses Habsburg diamonds

01:03:40around like party gifts.

01:03:41What's next?

01:03:42The queen invites him to tea?

01:03:44Drake,

01:03:45tonight was incredible,

01:03:46but I know Brandon.

01:03:48He's not the type

01:03:49to admit defeat.

01:03:50Let him come.

01:03:51Every move he makes

01:03:53costs him more.

01:03:54By the time he's done,

01:03:55he won't have a leg

01:03:56to stand on.

01:03:58Drake Ashford,

01:03:59every day with you

01:04:00I realize how little

01:04:01I actually know.

01:04:02A 38 million dollar diamond.

01:04:05Sotheby's.

01:04:05Viktor Kozlov on his knees.

01:04:07Whatever you're hiding,

01:04:08I can wait

01:04:09until you're ready

01:04:10to let me in.

01:04:14General!

01:04:15There you are!

01:04:16You just vanished!

01:04:17I've been searching everywhere!

01:04:19Riley,

01:04:19change of plans.

01:04:21Call off the background

01:04:22check on Drake.

01:04:23What?

01:04:23But we barely started!

01:04:25I said drop it.

01:04:27I don't need it anymore.

01:04:29Get me a secure line

01:04:30to mark a stone up north.

01:04:32Encrypted.

01:04:33Now.

01:04:33Yes, General.

01:04:35May I ask why?

01:04:36Because if my gut's right,

01:04:37I just made the biggest

01:04:38mistake of my life.

01:04:40And I need Master Stone

01:04:41to give it to me straight

01:04:42before it's too late.

01:04:44Drake Ashfield,

01:04:45if you really are

01:04:46the Wolf King,

01:04:47then I don't just

01:04:48owe you an apology.

01:04:49I owe you everything.

01:04:58Mother,

01:04:59have you seen the news?

01:05:00The gala's everywhere.

01:05:01Every single headline's

01:05:02about Drake Ashford

01:05:03and that damn diamond.

01:05:05I've seen it.

01:05:06Look at these comments.

01:05:07Who is Drake Ashford?

01:05:08The mystery man

01:05:09behind the Sovereign's heart.

01:05:11Whitmore family's

01:05:12secret weapon.

01:05:12Mother,

01:05:13this is bad.

01:05:14The more press he gets,

01:05:15the harder he'll be to shake.

01:05:16Helen,

01:05:16last night at the gala,

01:05:17you and Brandon

01:05:18tried to humiliate Drake

01:05:19in front of the entire city.

01:05:21You assumed he'd walk in

01:05:22empty-handed.

01:05:23Instead,

01:05:23he produced a

01:05:24Sotheby's certified

01:05:25$38 million diamond.

01:05:27So tell me,

01:05:28who exactly got humiliated

01:05:29last night?

01:05:30Mother,

01:05:31I,

01:05:32I,

01:05:32I don't...

01:05:33Don't.

01:05:33I'm old,

01:05:34but I'm not senile.

01:05:36The seating chart,

01:05:37the Emma show's line-up,

01:05:38Brandon's little questions,

01:05:39all orchestrated,

01:05:41and it blew up in your face

01:05:43spectacularly.

01:05:44Mother,

01:05:44even if Drake has money

01:05:45and connections,

01:05:46that doesn't change

01:05:46who he is.

01:05:47He's still a nobody.

01:05:48The Ashford's threw him out.

01:05:49He was a prison guard,

01:05:50for God's sake.

01:05:51Selina deserves better.

01:05:52Selina deserves what,

01:05:53exactly,

01:05:53Brandon Hale?

01:05:54A man who schemes

01:05:55behind people's backs

01:05:56and can't even scheme right?

01:06:02Helen,

01:06:03I'll level with you.

01:06:05I still don't fully trust Drake.

01:06:07I don't know where his money

01:06:08comes from.

01:06:09I don't know who he's connected to.

01:06:10But after last night,

01:06:12one thing is crystal clear.

01:06:14What?

01:06:14He is not who he appears to be.

01:06:18And until I figure out

01:06:20exactly what he is,

01:06:21nobody in this family

01:06:23lays a finger on him.

01:06:24Not you,

01:06:25not Brandon.

01:06:26Are we clear?

01:06:28Yes, Mother.

01:06:37Mother,

01:06:37have you seen the news?

01:06:38The gala's everywhere.

01:06:40Every single headline's

01:06:41about Drake Ashford

01:06:42and that damn diamond.

01:08:03Not you,

01:08:04not Brandon.

01:08:05Are we clear?

01:08:07Yes, mother.

01:08:10James,

01:08:11what did you dig up?

01:08:13Sir,

01:08:13I ran a full background check

01:08:14on Drake Ashford

01:08:15like you asked,

01:08:16and the results,

01:08:16they're weird.

01:08:17Weird how?

01:08:18His file is practically empty.

01:08:20Born Ashfield,

01:08:21kicked out at 18,

01:08:22and then nothing.

01:08:23No job history,

01:08:24no tax records,

01:08:25no property,

01:08:26no bank accounts

01:08:27under his name.

01:08:27It's like he dropped off

01:08:29the face of the earth

01:08:29for the last decade.

01:08:31That's not possible.

01:08:32A guy who drops 38 million

01:08:33on a diamond

01:08:34doesn't leave zero footprint.

01:08:35That's what I figured, sir.

01:08:36So I pushed harder,

01:08:37found one lead,

01:08:38and only one.

01:08:39Three years ago,

01:08:40Sotheby's Jerva,

01:08:41private auction.

01:08:41The buyer of the Sovereign's Heart

01:08:42was listed as D. Ashford.

01:08:44Payment went through

01:08:44a shell company

01:08:45registered in Lieberstein.

01:08:46Sealed by court order.

01:08:49Who has that kind of pull?

01:08:51Sir,

01:08:51I tried every angle.

01:08:52Every door I eye

01:08:53knocked on

01:08:54got shut in my face.

01:08:55Lieberstein government,

01:08:56Sotheby's,

01:08:57the banks,

01:08:57all of them clammed up.

01:08:59One contact in Geneva

01:09:00told me off the record

01:09:01that shell company

01:09:02is tied to someone

01:09:02with serious weight,

01:09:03someone who operates

01:09:04above government pay form.

01:09:08Above government pay grade.

01:09:10There's more, sir.

01:09:11I cross-referenced

01:09:12Drake's timeline

01:09:13with known events.

01:09:14After he got the boot

01:09:14from the Ashfords,

01:09:15the only place he's confirmed

01:09:16to have been

01:09:17is a facility called

01:09:18The Abyss.

01:09:19The Abyss?

01:09:20That maximum security hellhole?

01:09:22Yes, sir.

01:09:23But here's the kicker.

01:09:24He wasn't locked up.

01:09:25He was listed as staff,

01:09:27warden,

01:09:27except his clearance level

01:09:28and rank in the system,

01:09:29redacted,

01:09:30completely blacked out.

01:09:31I've never seen anything like it.

01:09:33Even the prison director's

01:09:34records are wide open.

01:09:35His clearance is higher

01:09:36than the director's?

01:09:37That's what it looks like, sir.

01:09:39No records,

01:09:40a sealed shell company,

01:09:41ties to Sotheby's chairman,

01:09:43Viktor Kozlov on his knees,

01:09:44living in the Wolf King's estate,

01:09:46and a clearance level

01:09:47that outranks

01:09:47the prison director.

01:09:48James,

01:09:49who does that point to?

01:09:51Sir,

01:09:51I don't want to jump

01:09:52to conclusions,

01:09:53but...

01:09:53Spit it out.

01:09:54The only name

01:09:55that fits every single piece

01:09:57of that puzzle

01:09:57is the Wolf King himself.

01:10:01The Wolf King?

01:10:03Drake Ashford

01:10:04that kicked out

01:10:05washed up failure

01:10:05as the Wolf King?

01:10:06Give me a break.

01:10:07Sir,

01:10:08I'm just giving you

01:10:09the facts as they landed.

01:10:11Your facts are garbage,

01:10:12or you're missing

01:10:13half the picture.

01:10:14Drake's not the Wolf King,

01:10:15he can't be.

01:10:16Someone big is pulling

01:10:17strings behind him,

01:10:17and that's the only play

01:10:18that makes sense.

01:10:19I don't want theories,

01:10:20I want a name.

01:10:21Find me that backer.

01:10:23Yes, sir.

01:10:24The Wolf King?

01:10:25No,

01:10:26no way.

01:10:26Drake Ashford

01:10:27is nobody.

01:10:28He has to be,

01:10:29because if he isn't,

01:10:31then I've been trying

01:10:31to bury the most

01:10:32dangerous man

01:10:33on the planet,

01:10:34and that means

01:10:35I'm a dead man walking.

01:10:36I just haven't

01:10:37stopped breathing yet.

01:10:41Master,

01:10:42I've got updates

01:10:42on three fronts.

01:10:44Lay them on me.

01:10:45First,

01:10:45Victoria Cross

01:10:46came to see you

01:10:46this morning.

01:10:47My sources say

01:10:47left the estate

01:10:48in a completely

01:10:48different headspace

01:10:49than when she arrived.

01:10:50She hasn't breathed

01:10:51the word to Riley

01:10:51or anyone else

01:10:52about your identity.

01:10:53She's keeping her word.

01:10:54Good.

01:10:54She's not dumb,

01:10:55just a little slow

01:10:56on the uptake.

01:10:57Second,

01:10:58Brandon Hale hired a P.I.

01:10:59to dig into your past.

01:11:00The guy's sharp.

01:11:01He's already turned up

01:11:02the Lichtenstein Shell Company

01:11:03and your Arbis records.

01:11:04The files are sealed,

01:11:06but he flagged

01:11:06the blacked out

01:11:07clearance level.

01:11:08Did Brandon

01:11:08connect the dots?

01:11:10His investigator

01:11:11floated the possibility

01:11:12that you're the Wolf King.

01:11:13Brandon shot it down.

01:11:15He's convinced

01:11:15someone powerful

01:11:16is pulling strings for you.

01:11:18He can't wrap his head

01:11:19around you being

01:11:20the source of that power

01:11:21yourself.

01:11:22Of course he can't.

01:11:23Guys like Brandon

01:11:24can never imagine

01:11:25the person they look down

01:11:26of as the one

01:11:27standing above them.

01:11:28Let him keep digging.

01:11:29The more he scratches

01:11:30the surface,

01:11:31the deeper a hole

01:11:32he's digging for himself.

01:11:33Understood.

01:11:34Third,

01:11:35the Ashford family

01:11:36annual gathering

01:11:37is in five days.

01:11:38Your brother Edward's

01:11:39been telling everyone

01:11:39he's about to be named

01:11:40the new Ashford heir.

01:11:42He's also been spreading

01:11:43rumors that you were kicked

01:11:44out for criminal behavior

01:11:45and that you're a stain

01:11:46on the family name.

01:11:48Edward.

01:11:49Ten years

01:11:49and the guy still

01:11:50can't stop running

01:11:51his mouth about me.

01:11:52The Widmolds got an invite

01:11:53to the gathering.

01:11:54If you go with Selene,

01:11:55you'll be face to face

01:11:56with Edward

01:11:56and the whole Ashfield clan.

01:11:58Could get messy.

01:12:00Messy?

01:12:01No.

01:12:02It's simple.

01:12:02Edward wants to be

01:12:03the Ashford heir.

01:12:04Let him have his moment

01:12:05in the sun.

01:12:06I'll show up

01:12:06as Selene's plus son.

01:12:07As a nobody.

01:12:08As the guy the Ashford's

01:12:10threw through to the curb.

01:12:10And when Edward provokes you,

01:12:12then I'll remind him

01:12:13why father picked me first.

01:12:25That dress?

01:12:26Is that a Vivian Lawrence?

01:12:27Has to be.

01:12:29Look at the stitching.

01:12:30That thing's worth more

01:12:31than most people's mortgages.

01:12:32Drake,

01:12:33everyone's staring.

01:12:34Good.

01:12:35You're the best looking woman

01:12:37in this city tonight.

01:12:38And they all know it.

01:12:40Invitation, please.

01:12:43Mr. Drake Ashfield?

01:12:45Any problem?

01:12:46No, sir.

01:12:47Please come in.

01:12:53Drake?

01:12:54He actually showed?

01:12:55That piece of trash

01:12:56the family throw out

01:12:58has the nerve

01:12:58to walk through these doors?

01:13:00Right on time.

01:13:01Stick to the plan.

01:13:02Let him sit down,

01:13:02get comfortable.

01:13:03We drop the bomb

01:13:04during the announcements.

01:13:05I know the drill.

01:13:08The back corner?

01:13:10Next to the kitchen door?

01:13:11They did this on purpose.

01:13:13Of course they are.

01:13:14Don't stress,

01:13:15we won't be sitting here long.

01:13:16Mr. Ashford,

01:13:17I've been asked to inform you

01:13:19this table is designated

01:13:20for junior family affiliates.

01:13:21If you'd prefer a different...

01:13:23This seat's fine.

01:13:23But bring me your best bottle,

01:13:25the 82 Marguet,

01:13:26if you have it.

01:13:27Sir,

01:13:28the 82 Marguet is reserved

01:13:29for the head table.

01:13:30Then unreserve it.

01:13:35You just hijacked

01:13:36Edward's prize wine.

01:13:39It was never his

01:13:40to begin with.

01:13:51That dress?

01:13:52Is that a Vivian Lawrence?

01:13:54Has to be.

01:13:55Look at the stitching.

01:13:56That thing's worth more

01:13:57than most people's mortgages.

01:13:58Drake,

01:13:59everyone's staring.

01:14:01Good.

01:14:02You're the best looking woman

01:14:03in this city tonight.

01:14:05And they all know it.

01:14:07Invitation, please.

01:14:10Mr. Drake Ashfield?

01:14:12Any problem?

01:14:13No, sir.

01:14:13Please come in.

01:14:19Drake?

01:14:20He actually showed?

01:14:22That piece of trash

01:14:23the family throw out

01:14:24has the nerve

01:14:24to walk through these doors?

01:14:26Right on time.

01:14:27Stick to the plan.

01:14:28Let him sit down,

01:14:38They did this on purpose.

01:14:39Of course they are.

01:14:40Don't stress,

01:14:41we won't be sitting here long.

01:14:42Mr. Ashford,

01:14:43I've been asked to inform you

01:14:45this table is designated

01:14:46for junior family affiliates.

01:14:48If you'd prefer a different...

01:14:49This seat's fine.

01:14:50This seat's fine.

01:14:50But bring me your best bottle,

01:14:52the 82 Marguet,

01:14:53if you have it.

01:14:53Sir, the 82 Marguet

01:14:55is reserved for the head table.

01:14:56Then unreserve it.

01:15:01You just hijacked

01:15:03Edward's prize wine.

01:15:06It was never his

01:15:07to begin with.

01:15:14Ladies and gentlemen,

01:15:16welcome to the Ashford family

01:15:18annual gathering.

01:15:19Tonight is a very special evening

01:15:21because we have a historic

01:15:23announcement to make.

01:15:24Please welcome to the stage

01:15:26Mr. Edward Ashford!

01:15:34Thank you all for being here.

01:15:36The Ashford family

01:15:38has stood for over a century,

01:15:40built on vision,

01:15:41on strength,

01:15:42on legacy.

01:15:43And tonight,

01:15:44I have the honor of announcing

01:15:46the next chapter of that legacy.

01:15:48After careful deliberation

01:15:49by the family council

01:15:50and with the full endorsement

01:15:53of our board of directors,

01:15:54I am formally being named

01:15:56the heir and future patriarch.

01:15:58of the Ashford family.

01:16:01For the past three years,

01:16:02I've led Crown Industries

01:16:04through some rough waters.

01:16:05Revenue dips,

01:16:06market shifts,

01:16:07cutthroat competition.

01:16:09I've faced them all head on.

01:16:11And tonight,

01:16:12I stand before you proof

01:16:13that the Ashford name

01:16:14isn't just surviving.

01:16:15It's thriving.

01:16:17Of course,

01:16:18to truly build the future,

01:16:19we must also acknowledge

01:16:21the past.

01:16:22My brother,

01:16:23shame upon our name.

01:16:25He was disowned.

01:16:26The family moved on.

01:16:29I bring this up

01:16:30not to dwell on old wounds,

01:16:32but to remind everyone.

01:16:34The Watford family

01:16:36does not tolerate weakness,

01:16:38does not tolerate failure,

01:16:39and it certainly

01:16:40does not tolerate

01:16:41those who forget their place.

01:16:44Drake,

01:16:44he's talking about you

01:16:46in front of the whole room.

01:16:47Let's get out of here.

01:16:48Leave?

01:16:49Now?

01:16:50The show's just getting warmed up.

01:16:54Speaking of the past,

01:16:56Drake,

01:16:57what a surprise.

01:16:59I didn't think you'd have the nerve

01:17:01to show your face tonight.

01:17:03Edward,

01:17:04nice speech.

01:17:05Very practiced.

01:17:06Practiced?

01:17:07I don't need to practice, Drake.

01:17:37I've been running this family

01:17:38still believing you matter.

01:17:40Ladies and gentlemen,

01:17:41let me properly introduce

01:17:42my little brother,

01:17:43Drake Ashford.

01:17:45Disowned for refusing

01:17:46to play by the family rules.

01:17:47Vanished for a decade,

01:17:49accomplished exactly nothing.

01:17:50Now he graces our gathering tonight

01:17:51in a borrowed suit

01:17:52at the junior table,

01:17:54drinking wine

01:17:54he certainly didn't pay for.

01:17:56You done?

01:17:57Done?

01:17:58I'm just getting started.

01:18:00Father made the right call

01:18:01when he...

01:18:02Father didn't disown me, Edward.

01:18:06You did.

01:18:09What...

01:18:09What did you say?

01:18:10You heard me.

01:18:12Father's will named me as heir.

01:18:14You didn't like that.

01:18:15So you forged the family council vote,

01:18:17paid off Elder,

01:18:18and re-rode the succession.

01:18:19Then you spun it to everyone

01:18:21that I was disowned

01:18:22for criminal conduct.

01:18:23Am I getting warm?

01:18:25Lies!

01:18:26This is slander!

01:18:28You have no proof!

01:18:31No proof?

01:18:42That's Harold Webb,

01:18:44the Ashford family's legal guardian.

01:18:46Harold Webb hasn't set foot

01:18:47in public in five years.

01:18:48What's he doing here tonight?

01:18:49Ladies and gentlemen,

01:18:50forgive the injosian,

01:18:51I am Harold Webb.

01:18:53I served as personal attorney

01:18:54and legal guardian

01:18:55to the late Arthur Ashford,

01:18:57founder of Crown Industries.

01:18:58I am here tonight

01:18:59in an official capacity.

01:19:00Mr. Webb?

01:19:02Why?

01:19:03Why?

01:19:04Why are you here?

01:19:08For the past 10 years,

01:19:10I have held Arthur Ashford's

01:19:11true last will and testament

01:19:12in trust.

01:19:13The document was sealed

01:19:15at Arthur's explicit request

01:19:16to be opened only

01:19:17when the rightful heir

01:19:18returned to claim it.

01:19:23I can confirm

01:19:24that the document presented

01:19:25by Drake Ashfield tonight

01:19:26is authentic.

01:19:28It is Arthur Ashfield's

01:19:29original will.

01:19:30I notarized it personally

01:19:31and I have kept a dupleted

01:19:33in my secure vault

01:19:34for 10 years.

01:19:36The will is straightforward.

01:19:38I quote,

01:19:39I designate my son

01:19:40Drake Ashfield

01:19:41as sole heir

01:19:41to the Ashford Family Estate

01:19:43Crown Comparations

01:19:44and all associated holdings.

01:19:45This decision is final

01:19:47and irrevable.

01:19:48End quote.

01:19:51No, no, this can't be right.

01:19:55Father chose me.

01:19:57The council voted.

01:19:58The council vote was a sham, Edward.

01:20:00I've known for years.

01:20:01Elder confession just confirmed

01:20:03what I already suspected.

01:20:04You forged the votes,

01:20:05bribed a council member,

01:20:06and stole your brother's birthright.

01:20:08In the eyes of the law

01:20:09and this family,

01:20:10you were never

01:20:11the legitimate heir.

01:20:12Drake,

01:20:12your father asked me

01:20:14to give you a message

01:20:15for when this day came.

01:20:17He said,

01:20:17tell my son I'm sorry

01:20:19I wasn't strong enough

01:20:20to protect him

01:20:21while I was alive,

01:20:21but I made sure

01:20:23the truth

01:20:23would be waiting for him.

01:20:25Thank you, Mr. Webb.

01:20:37Going somewhere, Brandon?

01:20:40Victoria, I was just...

01:20:42You orchestrated this whole night.

01:20:44You baited Drake

01:20:45to the Ashford gathering

01:20:46so Edward could tear him down

01:20:47in public.

01:20:48You fed me that intel

01:20:49about the Wolf King

01:20:50to turn me into your pot.

01:20:51And now that your little scheme

01:20:53has blown up in your face,

01:20:54you're cutting and running.

01:20:56Victoria, I have no idea

01:20:57what you're talking about.

01:20:59Let me be crystal clear, Brandon.

01:21:01You ever try to use me again?

01:21:03For anything,

01:21:04I will put you down.

01:21:05Not your career reputation.

01:21:07You.

01:21:07Do we understand each other?

01:21:10Yes.

01:21:12Understood.

01:21:17It's over.

01:21:18Edward's done.

01:21:19The Ashfords are toast.

01:21:21And Victoria,

01:21:22she's holding something back.

01:21:24The way she looked at me,

01:21:25she knows something about Drake,

01:21:27something I don't.

01:21:35That's Harold Webb,

01:21:36the Ashford family's legal guardian.

01:21:38Harold Webb hasn't set foot

01:21:39in public in five years.
