00:01:27Master, 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.
00:02:44Come 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.
00:02:58Master, 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.
00:03:25All hail the Grand Master! The Federation's Mightiest Warrior!
00:03:31Are 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 lockup on Earth. I'm lucky I'm breathing.
00:03:47After three years, you must be right at Ascendant's door stem. You're practically invincible now.
00:03:55Invincible? Not even close. My master could drop an Ascendant with two hands tied.
00:04:01Hold 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.
00:04:09Now up everyone! Move out! And zip it!
00:04:12Master, I've gotta 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.
00:04:23Copy. Anything else?
00:04:25One more thing. You are Drake Ashford, I presume?
00:04:30I'm Victoria Cross. And it appears, by arrangement, I'm your fiancé.
00:04:37I'm here to terminate that arrangement.
00:04:41You're not gonna 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.
00:04:57You're just holding her back.
00:05:00I'm not good enough for her?
00:05:01You're a nobody with no summoned beast. What makes you think you deserve her?
00:05:05Who do you think you are? Lord Bart from the Summoner's Temple?
00:05:09Bart? 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.
00:05:41A 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.
00:05:58Sign it.
00:06:06Fine. 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.
00:06:26Is this woman insane? Breaking off an engagement with the warden himself?
00:06:32Unbelievable. Poor choice. You're calling off the engagement?
00:06:35What, that surprises you? Hard to swallow? I know this must be a bitter pill. But let's not kid ourselves.
00:06:41Eagles don't roost with sparrows.
00:06:44I'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.
00:07:04Global 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.
00:07:23Can't argue with that. Not the same game.
00:07:25Good. 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.
00:07:51And a Lazarus pill, brewed by the legendary Dr. Lazarus before he vanished. One dose, one resurrection. Use it wisely.
00:07:59Finally, my general's badge. Bring it to me, and I'll do you three favors. No questions, no strings.
00:08:07What a waste on trash like you. You ought to be kissing the ground she walks in, not standing there
00:08:13like a dead fish.
00:08:18He wouldn't dare object. A small-time warden in a nowhere prison. Next to the Federation's youngest general, he's not
00:08:26even the dirt under your boots.
00:08:28Is this woman insane? Breaking off an engagement with the warden himself?

00:10:09What a waste on trash like you. You ought to be kissing the ground she walks in, not standing there
00:10:16like a dead fish.
00:10:24I'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. The general already told you, you're a fish out of water. You're
00:10:38not even in her league. You deaf or what?
00:10:40Funny, I was about to say the same. Running into you everywhere. What a curse.
00:10:44You! Enough. He's been buried in that prison so long he has no clue who I really am. Once it
00:10:49sinks in, he'll slink off on his own.
00:10:51You and I are never going to happen. Drop the delusion and stay out of my way. Unless you enjoy
00:10:56being humiliated.
00:11:00General Cross! You chatted with this guy long enough. He must mean something to you. You took my brother. Now
00:11:06I'm taking him. Surrender or he bleeds.
00:11:10The Phantom? Number two on the global most wanted? Your brother's the dreadlord? I've got nothing to do with him.
00:11:17If you want to fight, face me. No need to drag a nobody into this.
00:11:22General, be careful. This is all your fault. If anything happens to the general, I will end you myself. Phantom,
00:11:30don't you know who you're dealing with? She took down the dreadlord alone. You dare attack her? You're dead!
00:11:35Ha! The only man who ever put me in my place was that one in the abbess. Everyone else, I
00:11:40kill whoever I please. Starting with her!
00:11:52Oh crap. It's him. I'm dead. Run! Now! You got lucky today. I'm in a good mood. I'll let you
00:12:00live. Don't ever cross me again!
00:12:05General! He booked it! The bastard just vanished! That makes no sense. Why would he just run?
00:12:12Isn't it obvious? Your presence alone terrified him. A petty assassin is nothing compared to you.
00:12:18Hey, dead weight. Cat got your tongue? Too scared to even squeak?
00:12:22That little stunt? Please.
00:12:26You literally pissed yourself and you're still playing tough? If the general hadn't scared off the Phantom, you'd be a
00:12:32smear on the floor! Get on your knees and thank her!
00:12:34Let it go. The Phantom came for me. People at my level deal with this daily. For someone like him,
00:12:39it must have been a tsunami. Losing control is understandable. Ashfernd, I hope today's little scare won't leave you scarred
00:12:45for life. Let's go.
00:12:50Damn. Phantom, you son of a bitch. I'm sending someone to drag your ass back to the abbess. Add another
00:12:56ten years.
00:13:07Arca Stone greets the Master's return. Not bad. You actually made it to Ascendant.
00:13:13All thanks to you, Master. I want to formally become your disciple. Please give me a shot.
00:13:19Fine. You barely scraped by.
00:13:22Thank you, Master. The ceremony's set for tomorrow night. Victoria's handling everything. She's dying to meet you.
00:13:28Dying to meet me? That'll be entertaining.
00:13:32For the ceremony, I've invited the city's elite. This is your black card invitation. The only one of its kind.
00:13:39Good.
00:13:40You haven't been back in years. I've arranged the finest state in the city, the Crown. Hope it's up to
00:13:44your standards.
00:13:44Thoughtful. One more thing. The Whitmorns are hosting a charity gala tonight. Prepare three donations delivered to the Whitmore Estate.
00:13:49The Whitmore's? Understood. I'll handle it right away.
00:14:00Victoria, prepare three top league donations. Get them to the Whitmore Estate immediately.
00:14:04Yes, Master. Right away.
00:14:06To Lady Whitmore. May her name live on forever.
00:14:09Thank you all for attending. Tonight, 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. Wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:14:20Correct. Tonight, I'm choosing a worthy husband for Selina. Someone who upholds the Whitmore legacy.
00:14:28Grandmother. Grandfather already arranged my engagement. Drake Ash...
00:14:32Silence! Your grandfather is gone. I run this house now.
00:14:35Drake Ashfield is astray his own family throughout. No money, no power, no name. He'll never set foot in this
00:14:41family.
00:14:41Listen to your grandmother, dear. Drake's a nobody. Brandon Hale wants you. The Howells are connected to Solomon Grey's empire.
00:14:49You should be grateful.
00:14:52Mother... Father made that engagement himself. We could...
00:14:55I said enough! If that worthless fool dares show his face here, I'll have him carried out on a stredger!
00:15:03Drake Ashfield. Here to wish Lady Whitfield a long and prosperous life.
00:15:07On the side...
00:15:14Wow! Real tough guy!
00:15:18So we're all not worthy enough to make you kneel, huh?
00:15:20Not worthy? The Howard family controls every magic core mine in this city.
00:15:25If I cut off supply, every summoner in Valan will be on their knees begging me!
00:15:28And a loser who can't even light a summonation arm
00:15:31Says I'm not worthy
00:15:32The Sterling family runs all summon beast trade in Valon
00:15:35One word from me
00:15:37And 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 Morel family
00:15:43Is worth more than his sad little life
00:15:45If we don't break him today
00:15:47Where's our pride
00:15:49Hughes, stop this madness
00:15:51Do you want to die here
00:15:53Get on your knees
00:15:55And apologize to the three heads of houses
00:15:57Now
00:15:59Even if your ancestors climbed out of their greaves
00:16:03They still wouldn't be worthy of ordering me around
00:16:08What a boast
00:16:20Tear him apart
00:16:22Charge
00:16:33He's ruining the ceremony
00:16:58Kill him apart
00:17:00Kill him apart
00:17:00Kill him apart
00:17:14Drake Ashfield
00:17:15What in God's name are you doing here
00:17:17You worthless piece of garbage
00:17:18General Whitherm arranged my engagement to Selina
00:17:21That makes me family
00:17:23How could I miss your little shitty
00:17:27Drake
00:17:27You came
00:17:29I don't want anyone else
00:17:30Easy Selina
00:17:31I'm here to marry you
00:17:32That's not changing
00:17:33Selina
00:17:34Have you lost your mind
00:17:35This loser can't give you a thing
00:17:38Brandon Hale is the real prize
00:17:40He's a catch and a half
00:17:41I run this household
00:17:43That engagement is dead and buried
00:17:45General Whitmore gave his word
00:17:47And you just toss it aside
00:17:48No wonder this family's been sliding downhill ever since he stepped down
00:17:51Nonsense
00:17:52Under my watch
00:17:54This family's been thriving
00:17:56Thriving?
00:17:57That's because I've been pulling strings behind the scenes
00:18:00Without 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?
00:18:11Absolutely
00:18:11Delusional
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
00:18:24I heard he's been chasing Selina for years
00:18:25Looks like tonight's the night
00:18:27Lady Whitmore
00:18:29Apologies 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
00:18:55He'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
00:19:08But 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
00:19:32Worth 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
00:19:40The family's future is secure
00:19:45Brandon, this is, this is beyond generous
00:19:48You're a godsend
00:19:51Brandon, you're incredible
00:19:52Over 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
00:20:08Right?
00:20:09Drake, let's go
00:20:10Ignore him
00:20:13I did prepare something better
00:20:15But this junk
00:20:16Doesn't even deserve table space
00:20:26How dare you?
00:20:29Drake Ashfield
00:20:30You'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
00:20:42Drake, run
00:20:44You destroyed his gifts
00:20:46He won't let this go
00:20:49Selina
00:20:50Relax
00:20:51Just watch
00:20:52You son of a bitch
00:20:53I'll skin you alive for this
00:20:57Delivery for the gala
00:21:24Delivery for the gala
00:21:26For grandmother
00:21:27Happy?
00:21:28Jake
00:21:28You 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
00:21:37A prison warden couldn't afford this
00:21:40No way
00:21:41Brandon
00:21:41Don't project your limitations onto me
00:21:44You're out of your league
00:21:46You'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
00:21:52Selina
00:21:53Go be with Drake
00:21:55I fully support you too
00:21:56Drake
00:21:57This 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?
00:22:10Yes
00:22:10Absolutely satisfied
00:22:17Big deal
00:22:19They're yours
00:22:20So what?
00:22:22Grandmother
00:22:22This
00:22:24Is an invitation
00:22:25To the Wolf King's
00:22:26Initiation Ceremony
00:22:27Priceless
00:22:29This invitation
00:22:30Is the golden ticket
00:22:31To the upper echelon
00:22:32If you let Selene marry me
00:22:34It's yours
00:22:34Brandon
00:22:35You'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
00:22:41With the Whitmos
00:22:46You
00:22:47You're crazy
00:22:48That invitation
00:22:49Is a gesture of respect
00:22:51To General Cross
00:22:52To Marcus Stone
00:22:53And to the Wolf King himself
00:22:55You're a dead man
00:22:59Drake Ashfield
00:23:00You've lost your mind
00:23:02You deserve to die
00:23:07Get the carriage
00:23:09Now
00:23:10To the ceremony
00:23:14That bitch
00:23:15Selene
00:23:16Thinks she can have
00:23:18Master all to herself?
00:23:22Tell my people
00:23:23To get ready
00:23:24Right now
00:23:25Prepare a little gift
00:23:27For Master
00:23:28I'm going to that
00:23:29Ceremony too
00:23:36Miss
00:23:37The ceremony's about to start
00:23:38If he keeps causing trouble
00:23:39You're gonna get
00:23:40Dragged into this too
00:23:42Hughes
00:23:43Stop this
00:23:44Do you really want to
00:23:44Push this past
00:23:45The point of no return?
00:23:46Point of no return?
00:23:47You're just scared
00:23:48I'll ruin your little shot
00:23:49At being a temple disciple
00:23:51Yes
00:23:52You know exactly
00:23:53How much this means to me
00:23:56Is that important?
00:23:58Important enough to throw away
00:23:59Years of us being together
00:24:00Just like that?
00:24:02I don't have a choice
00:24:04You have no idea
00:24:05What you just threw away
00:24:06Stop talking big
00:24:08You keep this up
00:24:10And you're gonna get yourself killed
00:24:15My life
00:24:24It's right here
00:24:27Let's see who dares
00:24:28Try to take you
00:24:33Drake, why would you do that?
00:24:35You just made it worse
00:24:36Relax
00:24:37It's just a piece of paper
00:24:40Funny thing
00:24:40I've got the same thing
00:24:41Right here
00:24:42Black card
00:24:43Straight from Marcus Stone
00:24:50This is really an invitation
00:24:52To the ceremony?
00:24:53And it's a black card?
00:24:54Impossible!
00:24:55Marcus Stone wouldn't give you
00:24:57The time of day
00:24:58Let alone a black card
00:24:59It's obviously a fake!
00:25:01This
00:25:02It has Marcus Stone's
00:25:04Personal seal
00:25:04It doesn't look forged
00:25:06Brandon anything else to say?
00:25:08This can't be real
00:25:10You
00:25:12Who dares forge a black card invitation?
00:25:20General Cross
00:25:21What an honor
00:25:22We 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
00:25:35I've prepared these three donations
00:25:37For your gala
00:25:37I trust they're acceptable
00:25:39Wait
00:25:45Those gifts were sent by General Cross?
00:25:48On Marcus Stone's orders?
00:25:50So
00:25:50They weren't from Drake at all?
00:25:52Drake
00:25:54What's going on?
00:25:56Isn't it obvious?
00:25:57Drake Ashford
00:25:58You shameless fraud
00:26:00You tried to take credit
00:26:01For Marcus Stone's gifts
00:26:03And that black card
00:26:05Must be forged too
00:26:11Ashford
00:26:12You've crossed the line
00:26:17Thank you all for attending
00:26:19The initiation ceremony
00:26:20Of Grandmaster Marcus Stone
00:26:22Leader of the order
00:26:24The honor is ours
00:26:25General Cross
00:26:26To witness the Grandmaster
00:26:28Take a master
00:26:28Truly a once in a lifetime event
00:26:30On behalf of my father
00:26:32Victorm Kozov
00:26:33And the Kozov Syndicate
00:26:34Congratulations to Master Stone
00:26:37If the Wolf King
00:26:38Weren't in this city
00:26:39None of you small gut
00:26:40Would even be here
00:26:41Keep your mouths shut
00:26:42When the Grandmaster arrives
00:26:44And if you so much
00:26:45As breathe wrong
00:26:46In front of the Wolf King
00:26:47Don't bother calling for help
00:26:53That must be Master Stone
00:26:58Grandmaster
00:26:58Victoria Cross
00:27:00At your service
00:27:02All hail
00:27:03Grandmaster Stone
00:27:08Well, well
00:27:09Look at that
00:27:10Proper respect
00:27:11Not bad
00:27:16You
00:27:17What the hell
00:27:18Are you doing here
00:27:19Crashing this ceremony
00:27:21You've got balls
00:27:22Ashvin
00:27:22Who the hell
00:27:23Is this clown
00:27:24He made us bow to him
00:27:25I'll rip his head off
00:27:29Easy
00:27:29This is the General's party
00:27:31Let her deal with it
00:27:34Drake
00:27:35What 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
00:27:41A second glance
00:27:42General
00:27:43Let me shut this trash up
00:27:45No
00:27:46He's just a clown
00:27:47Begging for attention
00:27:48Master Stone
00:27:49And the Wolf King
00:27:49Will be here any minute
00:27:50Don't make a scene
00:27:52Let him stand in the corner
00:27:54And watch
00:27:59Drake
00:28:00I'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
00:28:05In front of me
00:28:06It's pointless
00:28:06We are not
00:28:07And will never be
00:28:08From the same world
00:28:09Victoria, you're flattering yourself
00:28:11I'm not here for you
00:28:13Arrogant prick
00:28:14The General spares your life
00:28:16And 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
00:28:30And she has to beg on your behalf
00:28:31Pathetic
00:28:32For Salima's sake
00:28:33I'll let this slide
00:28:34But know your place
00:28:35Sit in the back
00:28:37I'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
00:28:57He'll tear that bastard limb from limb
00:28:59Drake
00:29:00Please
00:29:01Just come down
00:29:03Off the throne
00:29:05Or die
00:29:18Grandmaster
00:29:19Victoria Cross
00:29:20At your service
00:29:21All hail
00:29:22Grandmaster Stone
00:29:34Serves him right
00:29:35He had it coming
00:29:36Happy now?
00:29:39You 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
00:30:01You 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
00:30:10Be reborn
00:30:21Who do you think you are?
00:30:36Rise
00:30:42Master
00:30:43Master
00:30:43Apologies
00:30:43There'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
00:30:50This nobody's been disrupting your ceremony since he walked in
00:30:53Please
00:30:53Deal with him
00:30:58Since when do I take orders from you?
00:31:02Sir
00:31:02Is everything alright?
00:31:04Sir?
00:31:04Why is Master calling him so?
00:31:09Not in the mood
00:31:10Call it off
00:31:13Yes Master
00:31:17My Master the Wolf King
00:31:19Has declined to attend
00:31:21The ceremony is postponed
00:31:23Indefinitely
00:31:25Master
00:31:26How can this be?
00:31:27Everything was prepared
00:31:35It's Drake's fault
00:31:37He ruined the ceremony
00:31:38And angered the Wolf King
00:31:40Drake Ashfield
00:31:42Destroyed Marcus Stone's ceremony
00:31:44This bastard deserves to die
00:31:47General
00:31:48Give the word
00:31:49I'll drag him back myself
00:31:50No
00:31:51I gave him three favors
00:31:53Consider this one used
00:31:55Let him go
00:31:56What matters now
00:31:57Is getting the Wolf King
00:31:58To forgive Master Stone
00:32:00Master said the Wolf King
00:32:01Lives at the Crown Estate
00:32:02We go there tonight
00:32:03And beg for his mercy
00:32:04Yes General
00:32:06Master called him sir
00:32:09Sir
00:32:09Is everything alright?
00:32:12Why?
00:32:13There's gotta be a reason
00:32:14But no
00:32:15Can't be what I'm thinking
00:32:16He's nobody
00:32:20Knew it
00:32:21Of course you'd end up
00:32:22Mopping floors for a living
00:32:24Whatever
00:32:24Since you work here
00:32:26Is 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
00:32:31On 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
00:32:45I'll be back every single day
00:32:46Until he agrees to see me
00:32:48And tell him
00:32:48My Master meant no disrespect
00:32:51The whole ceremony was derailed
00:32:53By some idiot who bodged in
00:32:54Some idiot?
00:32:55Me?
00:32:56Who else?
00:32:57If you hadn't caused that scene
00:32:59The Wolf King would've shown up
00:33:00And none of this would've happened
00:33:01You owe Master Stone
00:33:02A damn apology
00:33:03Victoria
00:33:05Take some advice
00:33:06Don't go around
00:33:07Blame people for things
00:33:08You don't understand
00:33:10You might regret it one day
00:33:11Regret?
00:33:12The only thing I regret
00:33:14Was wasting my breath
00:33:14On 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
00:33:23And I'll come back
00:33:25And break both your legs
00:33:27Every day until I agree to see her
00:33:29She's already seen me
00:33:31She's too dense to figure it out
00:33:37Good
00:33:37You showed up
00:33:39I've got a job for you
00:33:40Call it a trial run
00:33:42Pull it off
00:33:43And I might reconsider
00:33:45The engagement
00:33:46Really Grandmother?
00:33:47Don't get your hopes up
00:33:48Let me finish
00:33:49Three years ago
00:33:51The Kozlov syndicate
00:33:52Grabbed one of our properties
00:33:53Prime land
00:33:54Worth a small fortune
00:33:55Your grandfather
00:33:56Couldn't get it back
00:33:56Brandon couldn't either
00:33:57If this nobody
00:33:59Can talk Victor Kozlov
00:34:00Into handing it over
00:34:00Then maybe he's worth something
00:34:02Mother
00:34:03You can't be serious
00:34:04Victor Koznak
00:34:05Is one of the most
00:34:06Dangerous 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
00:34:18That's your test
00:34:20A piece of land
00:34:21Boy, Victor Kozlov
00:34:23Could squash you
00:34:24Like a bug
00:34:25With his pinky
00:34:26Don't let your mouth
00:34:27Write chirks
00:34:28Your body can't cash
00:34:31Selina, relax
00:34:32I'll get the land back
00:34:34Drake
00:34:34The Kozlovs are dangerous
00:34:36Dimitri alone
00:34:37Is bad enough
00:34:38His father is
00:34:38Ten times worse
00:34:39Promise me
00:34:40You'll be careful
00:34:42Trust me
00:34:48Well, well
00:34:49Look who crawled
00:34:51Out of the gutter
00:34:52The clown
00:34:53From the ceremony
00:34:53You've got some nerve
00:34:55Showing your face here
00:34:58Though I see
00:34:59You brought a little
00:35:00Something for me
00:35:01Miss Whitmore
00:35:03You're even more
00:35:04Stunning 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
00:35:16Victor Kozlov
00:35:18You're a dead man
00:35:21Drake
00:35:21You broke his finger
00:35:23That's Victor Kozlov's son
00:35:25Drake
00:35:26We need to go
00:35:28Before his men show up
00:35:30Tell your old man
00:35:32The 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
00:35:48My father will peel the skin off your bones
00:35:50You hear me?
00:35:51Dead
00:35:55Hughes
00:35:56You're crazy
00:35:58You're beyond help
00:35:59How dare you
00:36:00Lord Bard is still in person
00:36:02And you trash
00:36:03Still dare say his name like that
00:36:05You're begging to die
00:36:09You have a death wish
00:36:13Calm down Lord Bard
00:36:15I know this loser made you mad
00:36:17By saying your name
00:36:18But don't take it out on me
00:36:20Hopeless
00:36:22Don't work yourself up
00:36:24I'll handle this right now
00:36:25Take care of this trash for good
00:36:29Idiot
00:36:31Miss
00:36:32Lord Bard'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
00:36:42Lord Bard 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
00:36:55I have nothing to feel guilty about
00:36:58From now on
00:36:59What happens to you
00:37:00Is none of my business
00:37:03Lord Bard
00:37:13Bard
00:37:14Branch master of the summoner's temple
00:37:16Balan branch
00:37:17Greetings Lord Hughes
00:37:24Father
00:37:24That bastard Drake Ashfield
00:37:27Broke my finger
00:37:28He said if you don't return
00:37:29The 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
00:37:41The Kozlov synthets
00:37:43Father
00:37:43Give me the word
00:37:44I'll bring you his head
00:37:46On a platter
00:37:48You let a nobody
00:37:49Break your finger
00:37:50And you come running to me
00:37:53Pathetic
00:37:54You carry the Kozlov name
00:37:56And you can't handle one man
00:37:57You're an embarrassment
00:37:59Father that guy is unhinged
00:38:00He's not normal
00:38:01His grip alone
00:38:03Enough
00:38:03I'll handle this personally
00:38:05Nobody threatens the Kozlov synthet
00:38:07And gets away with it
00:38:08Set up a meeting
00:38:09Tell Drake Ashford
00:38:10If 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
00:38:22Selina
00:38:22You have to stop him
00:38:24Viktor 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
00:38:36I have to ask
00:38:37Don't you think Drake's a little off?
00:38:39At the ceremony Marcus Stone smacked Brandon for running his mouth
00:38:43But 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
00:39:01Selina
00:39:01Viktor wants to meet tonight
00:39:03The Eastern Warehouse
00:39:04I'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 him
00:39:19Then I'm coming too
00:39:21If 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 my life was in his hands
00:39:38The Abyss
00:39:39The world's most terrifying prison
00:39:41Father you were in there?
00:39:43Yes
00:39:44And this man could have ended me a thousand times over
00:39:47He spared my life
00:39:49He spared me
00:39:51And you
00:39:52You stole his fiance's family land
00:39:54And tried to lay hands on her
00:39:58You useless
00:39:59Brainless brat
00:40:01You nearly got our whole family wiped
00:40:03Wiped off the map
00:40:04Master
00:40:05This worthless son of mine
00:40:07Has insulted you and your lady
00:40:08His fate is yours to decide
00:40:10Whatever you command
00:40:11Even his head
00:40:12I will not object
00:40:15I'm sorry
00:40:15I didn't know
00:40:17Please
00:40:17Please don't kill me
00:40:19Kill you?
00:40:20Too easy
00:40:20Victor
00:40:21Send him to the Abyss
00:40:23Three years
00:40:24Let him taste what you went through
00:40:26No!
00:40:27Father please!
00:40:28Not the Abyss!
00:40:28Anything but that!
00:40:30Shut 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
00:40:36Master
00:40:37The 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
00:41:17Here
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 all 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 every inch
00:42:16He's also covering all back taxes and development fees
00:42:19This
00:42:19This is real?
00:42:21Victor Kozlov
00:42:22That old shark
00:42:23Actually handed it over?
00:42:27Impossible
00:42:28Your grandfather spent years to get this back
00:42:30Brandon went himself three times and got tossed out every 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 if you got the land back
00:42:45So as of today
00:42:46The engagement is on
00:42:47Grandmother
00:42:48Mother
00:42:49You can't be serious
00:42:51We don't even know what he did
00:42:53If he made some back 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
00:43:06The engagement stands
00:43:09For now
00:43:10You still have more to prove
00:43:12Fair enough
00:43:17Lord Bart
00:43:19The Wrynn family has served you loyally for years
00:43:22Please for old times sake
00:43:24Spare the Wrynn family
00:43:29Patriarch Bernard
00:43:31Look at you groveling like this
00:43:34Quite the change from how your son was strutting around like he owned the place just minutes ago
00:43:39My lord
00:43:49Father
00:43:49What are you doing?
00:43:51You little beast
00:43:52Bow down to Lord Hughes and 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 was bragging to me about how powerful he and the Wrynn family are
00:44:14Said he and all the big shops in Valen could sentence me to death
00:44:17In the name of every great house in the city
00:44:22Sentence him to death!
00:44:24The Wrynn family really is something, aren't you?
00:44:27Daring to sentence Lord Hughes to death!
00:44:34Master, got something for you
00:44:37Go ahead
00:44:37Victoria's been at the gate every day, just like she promised
00:44:40Today was day three
00:44:41Two hours on her knees, then she leaves
00:44:44Still thinks you're the help
00:44:45Persistence
00:44:46That's one thing I can respect about her
00:44:48There's more, Master
00:44:50She's been digging into the abyss
00:44:51Digging into what, exactly?
00:44:54She's trying to uncover the Wolf King's real identity
00:44:56Sent Riley to go through the prison records
00:44:58So far nothing
00:44:59You've got those files sealed tight
00:45:01But she's circling
00:45:03Asking about a warden who left three years ago
00:45:05Let her dig
00:45:06She won't find what I don't want her to see
00:45:08With respect, Master
00:45:10If she keeps pushing, she 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 and still call it a rock
00:45:29One more thing, Master
00:45:31Brandon Howell's been meeting with Helen Whitman
00:45:33Frequently
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?
00:45:41No
00:45:42Let them make their move first
00:45:44I want to see how deep they're willing to bury themselves
00:45:52Chloe, Black or Navy?
00:45:54Selene
00:45:55Forget the dress
00:45:56The real question is
00:45:58Is Drake even ready for this?
00:46:00There's a whole donation segment at the gala
00:46:02Every big name's gonna bring something 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
00:46:18The 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 in 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 have 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 about Drake lately
00:46:40Victor Kozlov, the most dangerous man in this city, knelt to him
00:46:43I saw it with my own eyes
00:46:44Whatever Drake is, he's not nobody
00:46:46But if he doesn't show his cards at that gala
00:46:48Helen and Brandon are gonna eat him for breakfast
00:46:51I know
00:46:52But every time I try to help Drake, he 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 you 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 lineup
00:47:09The seating
00:47:09All of it
00:47:11Locked, sealed, and delivered
00:47:12Drake'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's gonna be on it
00:47:19And I made sure the MIR calls out the Whitmore family rep by name
00:47:22No hiding, no excuses
00:47:24Good
00:47:25And Victoria Cross?
00:47:28Confirmed
00:47:28I had a little bird whisper that the Wolf King might grace the gala with his presence
00:47:33She'll be there, watching like a hawk
00:47:36When Drake embarrass himself, she gets a front row seat to exactly what he is
00:47:42Perfect
00:47:43After tomorrow night, Mother 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 tomorrow night
00:47:57I've confirmed
00:47:58Brandon and Helen have set a trap
00:48:00The donation portion is where they'll hit you
00:48:02They're banking on you, walking in with nothing
00:48:04And getting torn apart in front of every major family in the city
00:48:07Let me guess
00:48:09Victoria Cross is on the guest list too?
00:48:11Yes
00:48:12Someone leaked that the Wolf King might appear
00:48:15She'll be there, watching like a hawk
00:48:17Brandon gives himself way too much credit
00:48:18He's got Helen feeding him intel
00:48:20Victoria swinging the big stick and the whole gala as his little showcase
00:48:23Cute for an amateur
00:48:26Master
00:48:26Say the word and I'll shut it down
00:48:28One call and that gala never happens
00:48:33No
00:48:34I'm going
00:48:35You're attending
00:48:36In person
00:48:39Brandon wants to humiliate me
00:48:41Victoria wants to find the Wolf King
00:48:43Helen wants to kill the engagement
00:48:45Everyone's got a plan for tomorrow night
00:48:48Only fair I have one too
00:48:50The donation segment
00:48:52They want me to give something
00:48:53So I will
00:48:54Marcus
00:48:55Contact Catherine Laurent at Sotheby's Geneva
00:48:57Tell her the Wolf King is cashing in a favor
00:49:00Catherine Laurent
00:49:01Director of private sales
00:49:04She owes you two from the Lickenstein deal
00:49:06What are you after?
00:49:07The Sovereign's Heart
00:49:09Have it brought from the Zurich Bolt
00:49:11The Sovereign's Heart
00:49:13The 62 Krayer of Habsburg Crown Diamond
00:49:16You picked it up three years ago for 38 million
00:49:18You're donating that?
00:49:20It's been collecting dust in a vault for three years
00:49:22The time it earned its keep
00:49:24Have Catherine escort it personally
00:49:27Full soft re-security
00:49:28Level 5 clearance
00:49:29G.I.I. papers
00:49:30The whole package
00:49:32Yes, Master
00:49:33Anything else?
00:49:34One more thing
00:49:35I need a suit
00:49:36Nothing flashy
00:49:38Clean
00:49:38Simple
00:49:39But the cufflinks?
00:49:40The Wolf King Insignia ones
00:49:42The set only five people on Earth would recognize
00:49:44You want Victoria to see the cufflinks?
00:49:47I want to give her a chance
00:49:49If she's sharp enough to notice
00:49:51She deserves the truth
00:49:52If she's not
00:49:54That's on her
00:49:59Lord Hughes
00:50:00That can't be a serious request
00:50:02Yeah, my lord
00:50:03That's a pretty bad joke
00:50:05You had no problem sentencing me to death, did you?
00:50:09What's so hard when 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
00:50:17What if I
00:50:20Insist?
00:50:21Hughes!
00:50:22Everyone here is the backbone of Valon
00:50:24If you kill us
00:50:26You'll tear the whole city apart
00:50:27You think you can handle that?
00:50:33So be it
00:50:34You're going too far
00:50:36You think we won't take 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
00:50:49And destroy Valon in the process
00:50:50I won't stand for it
00:50:56Welcome, 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
00:51:14Or 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
00:51:19Will be in attendance tonight
00:51:20Someone important
00:51:20Important 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
00:51:35Perfect
00:51:36Let him get comfortable
00:51:38Donation sections when we strike
00:51:45Drake Ashford?
00:51:46What's he doing here?
00:51:47And why is he front and center?
00:51:49Drake
00:51:49Everyone is staring at us
00:51:52Let him look
00:51:56Ladies 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
00:52:03Later 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
00:52:11One 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
00:52:31Get his hands on a 38 million dollar
00:52:33Habsburg diamond
00:52:33He's got a point
00:52:35Where'd that diamond really come from?
00:52:37So 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, that's enough
00:52:46Sotheby's sent their own director
00:52:48With full authentication
00:52:49How dare you
00:52:50Selina, I'm just looking out
00:52:51For your family
00:52:51If that diamond's got a dirty past
00:52:53The Whittam name gets dragged
00:52:54Through the mud
00:52:55Right along with it
00:52:56You wanna know
00:52:56Where the diamond came from?
00:52:58I bought it
00:52:59Three years ago
00:52:59Five at Sotheby's auction
00:53:01In Geneva
00:53:0138 million
00:53:02Cash
00:53:06You bought it
00:53:0738 million
00:53:08Drake Ashford
00:53:09The man who can't afford
00:53:10A decent suit
00:53:11Dropped 38 million
00:53:12On a diamond
00:53:13Do you take this for fools?
00:53:15Mr. Hale
00:53:15Since you seem to struggle
00:53:16With facts
00:53:16Let me clarify
00:53:17This is the original
00:53:18Transaction record
00:53:19From Sotheby's Geneva
00:53:20Dated three years ago
00:53:21The buyer is listed
00:53:22As Mr. Drake Ashford
00:53:23Payment wire transfer
00:53:24In full
00:53:25And this is a personal letter
00:53:26From our chatman

00:53:43I 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
00:54:05Might show
00:54:06Is that real
00:54:07Or are you just filling seats
00:54:08I can't confirm anything
00:54:09General
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
00:54:18Tonight, General
00:54:24He's here
00:54:24Basic 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
00:54:32When we strike
00:54:38Drake Ashford?
00:54:39What's he doing here?
00:54:41And why is he front and center?
00:54:42Drake
00:54:42Everyone is staring at us

00:56:05Donates Storm Brand
00:56:06Our ancestral blade

00:56:17The Cross family's

00:56:22Thank you General
00:56:23And now
00:56:24Representing the Whitmounds tonight
00:56:26Please welcome
00:56:27Mr. Drake Ashford
00:56:29Here we go
00:56:33Drake
00:56:35Watch
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
00:57:05On 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
00:57:22The whole city's watching
00:57:24Maybe we should
00:57:26Is that
00:57:27The Sotheby's seal?
00:57:30Sotheby sent something here
00:57:31For Drake Ashford?
00:57:36This is the sovereign's heart
00:57:39A 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
00:57:45At a private Sotheby's auction in Geneva
00:57:46Perched by an anonymous bidder for
00:57:48$38 million
00:57:56Hold it
00:57:56I've got a question for Mr. Ashford
00:57:59Drake
00:58:00A stunning 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
00:58:06And no assets
00:58:06Get his hands on a
00:58:07$38 million
00:58:08Habsburg diamond
00:58:09He's got a point
00:58:11Where'd that diamond really come from?
00:58:13So let me ask the question
00:58:14Everyone's dying to ask
00:58:15Drake Ashford
00:58:17Did 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 sent their own director
00:58:24With full authentication
00:58:25How dare you
00:58:25Selina, I'm just looking out
00:58:27For your family
00:58:27If that diamond's got a dirty past
00:58:29The Widom name gets dragged
00:58:30Through the mud
00:58:31Right along with it
00:58:31You wanna know
00:58:32Where the diamond came from?
00:58:34I bought it
00:58:34Three years ago
00:58:35Private Sotheby's auction in Geneva
00:58:37$38 million
00:58:38In cash
00:58:42You bought it?
00:58:43$38 million?
00:58:44Drake Ashford
00:58:45A man who can't afford
00:58:46A decent suit
00:58:47Dropped $38 million
00:58:48On a diamond?
00:58:49Do you take us for fools?
00:58:50Mr. Hale
00:58:51Since you seem to struggle with facts
00:58:52Let me clarify
00:58:53This is the original transaction record

00:59:19I wouldn't recommend it
00:59:28Hold it!
00:59:29I've got a question
00:59:30For Mr. Ashford
00:59:31Drake
00:59:32Stunning donation indeed
00:59:34But I think everyone here
00:59:35Deserves to know
00:59:36How does a guy with no job

01:01:01Drake
01:01:02Victoria
01:01:04Shouldn't you be inside
01:01:05Enjoying the party?
01:01:06I need to ask you something
01:01:07And I need you to be straight with me
01:01:09Go ahead
01:01:13Your cuff clinks
01:01:14The wolf's head
01:01:15Black tooth stanium
01:01:16I've only seen that mark
01:01:17Once before
01:01:18In my master's study
01:01:19Stamped on a document
01:01:20Bearing the wolf king's personal seal
01:01:22That symbol belongs to one man
01:01:23In this world
01:01:24And?
01:01:25Drake Ashfield
01:01:26Are you the wolf king?
01:01:28Let 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 the wolf king
01:01:45How exactly do you plan
01:01:46To deal with that?
01:01:47You
01:01:48You haven't answered my question
01:01:51I'm not saying yes
01:01:52And I'm not saying no
01:01:53Some answers you've got to find
01:01:56On your own, Victoria
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
01:02:12To let me in
01:02:12And all along
01:02:13He was standing right there
01:02:15Watching me make a fool
01:02:16Of myself
01:02:17Please
01:02:18Don't let it be true
01:02:24Drake
01:02:25Where'd you disappear to?
01:02:27I've been looking everywhere
01:02:29Stepped 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
01:02:34Questioning that diamond
01:02:35Like 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
01:02:42What you were trying
01:02:42To pull tonight
01:02:45I don't know what you mean
01:02:46The seating
01:02:48Front and center
01:02:50So everyone could watch me
01:02:51Crash and burst
01:02:52The MRI calling my name
01:02:55Right after Victoria's
01:02:56Eight million dollar sword
01:02:58For maximum contrast
01:02:59Next time you set a trap
01:03:02Make damn sure the mouse
01:03:04Isn't actually a wolf
01:03:07A wolf?
01:03:08Think you're a wolf?
01:03:09Fine
01:03:09You won tonight
01:03:11But I'll find out
01:03:12He's backing you
01:03:13And I'll tear them away
01:03:14From you
01:03:15One by one
01:03:19Drake Ashford
01:03:20The Sovereign's heart
01:03:21Thirty-eight million
01:03:22A Habsburg crown diamond
01:03:24You are absolutely insane
01:03:26I am officially
01:03:28Your number one fan
01:03:29Chloe
01:03:30Hands off my fiancé
01:03:31Selena
01:03:32Seriously
01:03:33Where did you find this man?
01:03:35Viktor Kozlov kneels to him
01:03:36Sotheby's chairman
01:03:37Writes him personal letters
01:03:39He tosses Habsburg diamonds
01:03:40Around like party gifts
01:03:41What's next?
01:03:43The queen invites him to tea
01:03:44Drake
01:03:44Tonight was incredible
01:03:47But I know Brandon
01:03:48He's not the type to admit defeat
01:03:50Let him come
01:03:52Every move he makes
01:03:53Costs him more
01:03:53By the time he's done
01:03:55He won't have a leg to stand on
01:03:58Drake Ashford
01:03:59Every day with you
01:04:01I realize how little
01:04:01I actually know
01:04:02A thirty-eight 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 to 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 check on Drake
01:04:23What?
01:04:24But 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
01:04:38I just made the biggest mistake of my life
01:04:40And I need Master Stone to give it to me straight before it's too late
01:04:44Drake Ashfield
01:04:45If you really are the Wolf King
01:04:47Then I don't just owe you an apology
01:04:49I owe you everything
01:04:58Mother have you seen the news?
01:05:00The gala's everywhere
01:05:01Every single headline's about Drake Ashford and 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 behind the Sovereign's heart
01:05:11Whitmore family's secret weapon
01:05:12Mother this is bad
01:05:14The more press he gets
01:05:15The harder he'll be to shake
01:05:16Helen, last night at the gala
01:05:17You and Brandon tried to humiliate Drake in front of the entire city
01:05:21You assumed he'd walk in empty-handed
01:05:23Instead he produced a Sotheby's certified $38 million diamond
01:05:27So tell me
01:05:27Who exactly got humiliated last night?
01:05:30Mother
01:05:31I...
01:05:32I don't...
01:05:33Don't
01:05:33I'm old but I'm not senile
01:05:36The seating chart, the Emma show's line-up
01:05:38Brandon's little questions
01:05:39All orchestrated
01:05:41And it blew up in your face spectacularly
01:05:44Mother, even if Drake has money and connections
01:05:46That doesn't change who he is
01:05:47He's still a nobody
01:05:48The Ashford's threw him out
01:05:49He was a prison guard for God's sake
01:05:51Selina deserves better
01:05:52Selina deserves what exactly?
01:05:53Brandon Hale?
01:05:55A man who schemes behind people's backs
01:05:57And can't even scheme right?
01:06:03Helen, I'll level with you
01:06:05I still don't fully trust Drake
01:06:07I don't know where his money comes 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 exactly what he is
01:06:22Nobody in this family lays a finger on him
01:06:25Not you, not Brandon
01:06:26Are we clear?
01:06:28Yes, Mother
01:06:37Mother, have you seen the news?
01:06:39The gala's everywhere
01:06:40Every single headline's about Drake Ashford
01:06:42And that damn diamond
01:06:43I've seen it
01:06:44Look at these comments
01:06:45Who is Drake Ashford?
01:06:47The mystery man behind the Sovereign's heart
01:06:49Whitmore family's secret weapon
01:06:51Mother, this is bad
01:06:52The more press he gets
01:06:53The harder he'll be to shake
01:06:54Helen, last night at the gala
01:06:56You and Brandon tried to humiliate Drake
01:06:58In front of the entire city
01:06:59You assumed he'd walk in empty-handed
01:07:01Instead, he produced a Sotheby's certified
01:07:0438 million dollar diamond
01:07:05So tell me
01:07:06Who exactly got humiliated last night?
01:07:09Mother, I don't
01:07:11Don't
01:07:12I'm old, but I'm not senile
01:07:14The seating chart
01:07:15The Emma show's line-up

01:07:29For God's sake
01:07:29Selina deserves better
01:07:30Selina deserves what exactly?
01:07:32Brandon Hale
01:07:33A man who schemes behind people's backs
01:07:35And can't even scheme right?
01:07:41Helen, I'll level with you
01:07:44I still don't fully trust Drake
01:07:45I don't know where his money comes from
01:07:47I don't know who he's connected to
01:07:49But after last night
01:07:51One thing is crystal clear
01:07:52What?
01:07:53He is not who he appears to be
01:07:57And until I figure out exactly what he is
01:08:01Nobody in this family lays a finger on him
01:08:03Not you, not Brandon
01:08:05Are we clear?
01:08:07Yes, mother
01:08:10James
01:08:11What did you dig up?
01:08:13Sir, I ran a full background check on Drake Ashford like 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, kicked out at 18
01:08:22And then nothing
01:08:22No job history
01:08:24No tax records
01:08:25No property
01:08:26No bank accounts under his name
01:08:28It's like he dropped off the face of the earth for the last decade
01:08:31That's not possible
01:08:32A guy who drops 38 million on a diamond doesn'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, Sotheby's Jerva
01:08:41Private auction
01:08:41The buyer of the Sovereign's Heart was listed as D. Ashford
01:08:44Payment went through a shell company registered in Lieberstein
01:08:47Sealed by court order
01:08:49Who has that kind of pull?
01:08:51Sir, I tried every angle
01:08:52Every door I eye knocked on got shut in my face
01:08:55Liebenstein government
01:08:56Sotheby's
01:08:57The banks
01:08:57All of them clammed up
01:08:59One contact in Geneva told me off the record
01:09:01That shell company is tied to someone with serious weight
01:09:03Someone who operates above government pay form
01:09:08Above government pay grade
01:09:10There's more, sir
01:09:11I cross-referenced Drake's timeline with known events
01:09:14After he got the boot from the Ashfords
01:09:15The only place he's confirmed to have been is a facility called the Abyss
01:09:19The Abyss?
01:09:21That 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 and rank in the system?
01:09:30Redacted
01:09:30Completely blacked out
01:09:31I've never seen anything like it
01:09:33Even the prison director's records are wide open
01:09:35His clearance is higher than the director's?
01:09:37That's what it looks like, sir
01:09:38No records
01:09:40A sealed shell company
01:09:41Ties to Sotheby's chairman
01:09:43Victor Kozlov on his knees
01:09:44Living in the Wolf King's estate
01:09:46And a clearance level that outranks the prison director
01:09:48James
01:09:49Who does that point to?
01:09:51Sir, I don't want to jump to conclusions, but
01:09:53Spit it out
01:09:55The only name that fits every single piece of that puzzle
01:09:58Is the Wolf King himself
01:10:01The Wolf King?
01:10:03Drake Ashford that kicked out washed up failure is the Wolf King?
01:10:07Give me a break
01:10:07Sir, I'm just giving you the facts as they landed
01:10:11Your facts are garbage
01:10:12Or you're missing half the picture
01:10:14Drake's not the Wolf King
01:10:15He can't be
01:10:16Someone big is pulling strings behind him
01:10:18That's the only play that makes sense
01:10:19I don't want theories
01:10:20I want a name
01:10:21Find me that backer
01:10:23Mister?
01:10:24The Wolf King?
01:10:25No, no way
01:10:26Drake Ashford is nobody
01:10:28He has to be
01:10:29Because if he isn't
01:10:31Then I've been trying to bury the most dangerous man on the planet
01:10:34And that means I'm a dead man walking
01:10:36I just haven't stopped breathing yet
01:10:41Master, I've got updates on three fronts
01:10:44Lay them on me
01:10:45First, Victoria Cross came to see you this morning
01:10:47My sources say left the estate in a completely different headspace than when she arrived
01:10:50She hasn't breathed the word to Riley or anyone else about your identity
01:10:53She's keeping her word
01:10:54Good, she's not dumb
01:10:55Just a little slow on the uptake
01:10:57Second
01:10:58Brandon Hale hired a PI to dig into your past
01:11:00The guy's sharp
01:11:01He's already turned up the Lichtenstein Shell Company and your obvious records
01:11:04The files are sealed
01:11:06But he flagged the blacked out clearance level
01:11:08Did Brandon connect the dots?
01:11:10His investigator floated the possibility that you're the Wolf King
01:11:13Brandon shot it down
01:11:15He's convinced someone powerful is pulling strings for you
01:11:18He can't wrap his head around you being the source of that power yourself
01:11:22Of course he can't
01:11:23Guys like Brandon can never imagine the person they look down of as the one standing above them
01:11:28Let him keep digging
01:11:29The more he scratches the surface, the deeper a hole he's digging for himself
01:11:33Understood
01:11:34Third
01:11:34The Ashford family annual gathering is in five days
01:11:37Your brother Edward's been telling everyone he's about to be named the new Ashford heir
01:11:42He's also been spreading rumors that you were kicked out for criminal behavior
01:11:45And that you're a stain on the family name
01:11:47Edward
01:11:49Ten years and the guy still can't stop running his mouth about me
01:11:52The Widmolds got an invite to the gathering
01:11:54If you go with Selene you'll be face to face with Edward and the whole Ashfield clan
01:11:58Could get messy
01:12:00Messy?
01:12:01No
01:12:01It's simple
01:12:03Edward wants to be the Ashford heir?
01:12:04Let him have his moment in the sun
01:12:06I'll show up as Selene's plus son
01:12:07As a nobody
01:12:09As the guy the Ashford's threw through to the curb
01:12:10And when Edward provokes you
01:12:12Then I'll remind him why father picked me first
01:12:25That dress
01:12:26Is that a Vivian Lawrence?
01:12:28It has to be
01:12:29Look at the stitching
01:12:30That thing's worth more than most people's mortgages
01:12:32Drake, everyone's staring
01:12:34Good
01:12:36You're the best looking woman in this city tonight
01:12:38And they all know it
01:12:40Invitation please
01:12:43Mr. Drake Ashfield
01:12:45Any problem?
01:12:47No sir
01:12:47Please come in
01:12:53Drake?
01:12:54He actually showed?
01:12:56That piece of trash the family throw out has the nerve to walk through these doors?
01:13:00Right on time
01:13:01Stick to the plan
01:13:02Let him sit down
01:13:03Get comfortable
01:13:03We dropped the bomb during the announcements
01:13:05I know the drill
01:13:08The back corner?
01:13:10Next to the kitchen door?
01:13:12They 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 for junior family affiliates
01:13:22If you'd prefer a different
01:13:23This seat's fine
01:13:24But bring me your best bottle
01:13:25The 82 Marget if you have it
01:13:27Sir, the 82 Marget is reserved for the head table
01:13:30Then unreserve it
01:13:35You just hijacked Edward's prize wine
01:13:40It was never his to 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 than most people's mortgages
01:13:58Drake
01:13:59Everyone's staring
01:14:00Good
01:14:02You're the best looking woman in this city tonight
01:14:04And 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 the family throw out
01:14:24Has the nerve to walk through these doors
01:14:26Right on time
01:14:27Stick to the plan
01:14:28Let him sit down
01:14:29Get comfortable
01:14:29We drop the bomb during the announcements
01:14:31I know the drill
01:14:35The back corner
01:14:36Next to the kitchen door
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 for junior family affiliates
01:14:48If you'd prefer a different
01:14:49This seat's fine
01:14:50But bring me your best bottle
01:14:52The 82 Marget if you have it
01:14:53Sir the 82 Marget is reserved for the head table
01:14:56Then unreserve it
01:15:02You just hijacked Edward's prize wine
01:15:06It was never his to begin with
01:15:15Ladies and gentlemen
01:15:16Welcome to the Ashford family annual gathering
01:15:19Tonight is a very special evening
01:15:21Because we have a historic announcement 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 has stood for over a century
01:15:39Built on vision
01:15:41On strength
01:15:42On legacy
01:15:43And tonight
01:15:44I have the honor of announcing the next chapter of that legacy
01:15:48After careful deliberation by the family council
01:15:51And with the full endorsement of our board of directors
01:15:54I am formally being named the heir and future patriarch
01:15:58Of the Ashford family
01:16:01For the past three years
01:16:02I've led crown industries through 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 isn't just surviving
01:16:15It's thriving
01:16:17Of course
01:16:18To truly build the future
01:16:20We must also acknowledge the 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
01:16:31Not to dwell on old wounds
01:16:32But to remind everyone
01:16:34The Watford family does not tolerate weakness
01:16:37Does not tolerate failure
01:16:39And it certainly does not tolerate those who forget their place
01:16:43Drake
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
01:16:48Now
01:16:49The show's just getting warmed up
01:16:54Speaking of the past
01:16:56Drake
01:16:57What a surprise
01:17:00I didn't think you'd have the nerve to show your face tonight
01:17:02Edward
01:17:03Nice speech
01:17:05Very practiced
01:17:06Practiced?
01:17:07I don't need to practice, Drake
01:17:08I've been running this family for three years
01:17:11While you've been, what?
01:17:12Mopping floors somewhere?
01:17:15And this must be your fiancée?
01:17:17Selena Whitmore, is it?
01:17:18I hear the Whitmore family's been
01:17:21Downsizing
01:17:21A winning match for a disaboned Ashford, wouldn't you say?
01:17:25Edward, you can come at me all you want
01:17:27But you insult her one more time
01:17:29And you're not walking out of this room tonight
01:17:34Threatening me?
01:17:34In my house?
01:17:35Drake's you haven't changed a bit
01:17:37Still delusional
01:17:39Still believing you matter
01:17:40Ladies and gentlemen
01:17:41Let me properly introduce my little brother
01:17:43Drake Ashford
01:17:44Disowned for refusing to play by the family rules
01:17:48Vanished for a decade
01:17:49Accomplished exactly nothing
01:17:50Now he graces our gathering tonight
01:17:52In a borrowed suit
01:17:52At the junior table
01:17:54Drinking wine he certainly didn't pay for
01:17:56You done?
01:17:57Done?
01:17:58I'm just getting started
01:17:59Father made the right call when he left
01:18:02Father didn't disown me, Edward
01:18:06You did
01:18:09What did you say?
01:18:11You 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 in 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
01:18:55And legal guardian
01:18:56To the late Arthur Ashford
01:18:57Founder of Crown Industries
01:18:58I am here tonight in an official capacity
01:19:00Mr. Webb
01:19:02Why?
01:19:03Why?
01:19:04Why are you here?
01:19:08For the past ten years
01:19:10I have held Arthur Ashford's
01:19:11True last will and testament in trust
01:19:13The document was sealed
01:19:15At Arthur's explicit request
01:19:16To be opened only when the rightful heir
01:19:18Returned to claim it
01:19:23I can confirm that the document
01:19:25Presented by Drake Ashfield tonight
01:19:27Is authentic
01:19:27It is Arthur Ashfield's original will
01:19:30I notarized it personally
01:19:32And I have kept a dupleted in my secure vault for ten years
01:19:37The will is straightforward
01:19:38I quote
01:19:39I designate my son Drake Ashfield as sole heir to the Ashford Family Estate Crown Corporations
01:19:44And all associated holdings
01:19:45This decision is final and irrevable
01:19:48End quote
01:19:51No
01:19:52No this can't be right
01:19:54Father 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
01:20:07And stole your brother's birthright
01:20:08In the eyes of the law
01:20:09And this family
01:20:10You were never the legitimate heir
01:20:12Drake
01:20:12Your father asked me to give you a message
01:20:15For when this day came
01:20:17Said
01:20:17Tell my son
01:20:18I'm sorry
01:20:19I wasn't strong enough
01:20:20To protect him
01:20:21While I was alive
01:20:22But 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 to the Ashford Gathering
01:20:46So Edward could tear him down in public
01:20:48You fed me that intel about the Wolf King
01:20:50To turn me into your paw
01:20:51And now that your little scheme has 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
01:21:23The 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 in public in five years
01:21:40What's he doing here tonight?

01:23:34You orchestrated this whole night
01:23:36You baited Drake to the Ashford gathering so Edward could tear him down in public
01:23:40You fed me that intel about the Wolf King to turn me into your paw
01:23:44And now that your little scheme has blown up in your face
01:23:47You're cutting and running
01:23:48Victoria I have no idea what you're talking about
01:23:52Let me be crystal clear Brandon
01:23:53You ever try to use me again
01:23:55For anything I will put you down
01:23:57Not your career reputation
01:23:59You
01:24:00Do we understand each other?
01:24:02Y-yes
01:24:04Understood
01:24:10It's over
01:24:11Edward's done
01:24:12The Ashfords are toast
01:24:13And Victoria
01:24:14She's holding something back
01:24:16The way she looked at me
01:24:17She knows something about Drake
01:24:19Something I don't
01:24:20He knows something about Drake
01:24:22Nothing I got
