00:00:30Your cash offer, the purchase agreement is ready for your signature.

00:00:35What the hell is this?

00:00:37You just got here, and you're already moving out?

00:00:39What will people think?

00:00:42Why stay under one roof just to make each other miserable?

00:00:45Do you care about this family at all?

00:00:47Sure I do, but I'm allergic to family, especially the biased kind.

00:00:51You need an appointment.

00:00:53Eleanor, how can you be so materialistic?

00:00:55Mom and Dad brought you back to be a family, and all you care about is showing off your money.

00:01:00Guilty.

00:01:01Greenwich girls are taught to love ourselves, protect our money, and save our energy for people who deserve it.

00:01:12When I was five, a boy in kindergarten snatched my bow.

00:01:14Finders keepers, the bow's mine now!

00:01:16I didn't cry.

00:01:17I wrote a three-page complaint letter.

00:01:21The next day, his mom showed up with a brand new bow and apologized.

00:01:24When I was eight, a neighbor called me an unwanted child.

00:01:27My adoptive mom showed up at her door with a box of homemade cookies, smiling sweetly.

00:01:31Ma'am, say that about my daughter again, and the next thing you hear from us will come from our

00:01:34attorney.

00:01:35When I was ten, my dad took me to review property leases and taught me my first rule in life.

00:01:40We call a lawyer.

00:01:41Remember this, sweetheart.

00:01:41Money can wait.

00:01:43Disrespect doesn't get a free pass.

00:01:44Bottom line, if we can reason, we reason.

00:01:46If not, we use contracts.

00:01:47And we never waste energy on people who aren't worth it.

00:01:49That's my girl.

00:01:56Miss Whitaker, Mr. and Mrs. Sterling would like you to come home as soon as possible.

00:02:00Home.

00:02:01Home.

00:02:02Her home is right here.

00:02:03I mean, back to your biological parents, ma'am.

00:02:07Is the food good there?

00:02:09I beg your pardon?

00:02:11If the food's bad, I'm not going.

00:02:13Greenwich girls have delicate stomachs.

00:02:15We don't eat anything that isn't worth it.

00:02:24Take this card.

00:02:25The pen's your birthday.

00:02:28These are copies of the deeds,

00:02:29and this confirms your interest in the family trust.

00:02:32And this is our family lawyer's number.

00:02:33If anyone makes you uncomfortable, call him directly.

00:02:36Don't worry about causing trouble.

00:02:37That's the last thing I'm afraid of.

00:02:42Sweetie, remember this.

00:02:43If it doesn't feel warm over there, come home early.

00:02:47A girl raised by the Whitmer's doesn't need to beg anyone for love.

00:02:50Don't worry, Mom and Dad.

00:02:52I'm going over there to run a quality inspection.

00:02:54Let's see if their family product passes the test.

00:02:58If they're not clean enough, I'll return to send her on the spot.

00:03:01Not a second more.

00:03:04No amount of money can buy 20 years of confidence.

00:03:07Did you say something, Miss Whitmorth?

00:03:09Nothing.

00:03:09Just enjoying the view.

00:03:26Tell me something, Butler.

00:03:28Did your interior designer have a personal vendetta

00:03:30against the Palace of Versailles?

00:03:40Dad, Mom, now that Eleanor is coming back,

00:03:43should I be the bigger person and move out?

00:03:45Wow, what a performance.

00:03:47Miss Chloe did have quite a talent for theater growing up.

00:03:50Oh, I believe it.

00:03:51Some people never leave the stage.

00:04:06Eleanor, it's good you're here,

00:04:08but I need to say something first.

00:04:09Chloe may not be our biological daughter,

00:04:11but we've loved her for 20 years.

00:04:13She's part of this family.

00:04:15Makes sense.

00:04:1620 years of feelings do weigh more than blood.

00:04:20Good.

00:04:21Then don't come in here trying to take Chloe's place.

00:04:23We'll provide for you, but you won't bully her.

00:04:25Got it.

00:04:26Don't take her place.

00:04:27Don't bully her.

00:04:28Noted.

00:04:28Eleanor, you better mean it.

00:04:30Chloe's health is fragile.

00:04:31If you bring your wild habits from outside and upset her,

00:04:33I won't stand for it.

00:04:35Nathan, don't talk to Eleanor like that.

00:04:36She just came from Gretichon.

00:04:37She must be upset, too.

00:04:39I don't mind taking a little grieve, really.

00:04:41Eleanor, if you want my room, I can move to the attic.

00:04:43It's smaller, but I don't mind, as long as you're happy.

00:04:46Which room is yours?

00:04:48The south-facing one on the second floor.

00:04:50Best light in the house.

00:04:51It should have been yours.

00:04:53I've been borrowing it all these years,

00:04:54so it's only right I give it back.

00:04:55Don't be ridiculous.

00:04:57That room is yours.

00:04:58Mom decorated it for you.

00:04:59Eleanor, you heard her.

00:05:00Don't even think about taking Chloe's room.

00:05:02See that?

00:05:03Stage set, cast in place,

00:05:05just waiting for me to play the villain.

00:05:06Miss Whitfield, well,

00:05:07Mr. and Mrs. Sterling really do dope on Miss Sterling.

00:05:10I get it.

00:05:11Classic guilt trip.

00:05:13You know, if those tears were pearls, we'd be rich.

00:05:18Eleanor, since you're back, know your place.

00:05:20Don't come in here trying to take what's Chloe's.

00:05:23Did I say I wanted it?

00:05:26Eleanor, I didn't mean anything by it.

00:05:28I just didn't want you to feel left out.

00:05:30After all, that room was supposed to be yours.

00:05:33Wow.

00:05:34Wow, you're really good at being offended

00:05:35on other people's behalf.

00:05:36Back in Greenwich, you'd make a great museum tour guide.

00:05:38You'd have the whole route planned

00:05:39before the tourist even asks.

00:05:40Eleanor, do you have to be so sarcastic?

00:05:42We just met,

00:05:43and you're already making everything awkward?

00:05:45Not at all.

00:05:46Nathan, you might not know this about me,

00:05:48but I'm a Greenwich girl through and through.

00:05:49I like to keep things clean.

00:05:51You're the one staging a soap opera in front of me.

00:05:53If you're going to perform, slow down.

00:05:55I haven't learned my part yet.

00:05:57Enough.

00:05:58Eleanor, you just got here.

00:05:59Don't start making everyone unhappy on day one.

00:06:02The family will sort out your position and everything else.

00:06:05You see that?

00:06:07This whole house reaps of favoritism.

00:06:15Eleanor, I'm so sorry.

00:06:16I really had no idea this room wasn't ready.

00:06:18The staff must have forgotten.

00:06:20How about I move out tonight?

00:06:22You take the south-facing room, I'll stay here.

00:06:25Tell me, Butler,

00:06:26is this the Sterling family's idea of a welcome home

00:06:29for the daughter they lost for 20 years?

00:06:30Miss Whitworth,

00:06:31this Mr. and Mrs. Sterling

00:06:33meant for you to stay here temporarily

00:06:34while we arrange something better.

00:06:37What, are you going to post this online

00:06:39and play the victim?

00:06:40Make everyone think we mistreated you?

00:06:43Don't flatter yourself.

00:06:44I'm sending these to my mom

00:06:45so she can see the five-star welcome I got.

00:06:48Eleanor,

00:06:48don't make a mountain out of a mall hell.

00:06:50The room's dirty.

00:06:51Have someone clean it.

00:06:52Chloe's already upset enough about you coming back.

00:06:54How much longer are you going to push her?

00:06:56Mrs. Sterling,

00:06:57since I walked through that door,

00:06:59I haven't said a single word of complaint.

00:07:00Yet your whole family

00:07:01has already decided what I'm guilty of.

00:07:03I, that's not what I meant.

00:07:05Then what did you mean?

00:07:06That I shouldn't have eyes

00:07:07or that I shouldn't have a mouth?

00:07:11Calm down, Mrs. Sterling.

00:07:13I was just making an observation.

00:07:14Observation about what?

00:07:15Your disrespectful attitude is...

00:07:16I was impressed by how efficient you all are.

00:07:18You managed to put together

00:07:19this little surprise for me in record time.

00:07:21Too bad the efficiency is there.

00:07:23The execution, though,

00:07:23seems to be missing a brain.

00:07:25Eleanor,

00:07:25say one more disrespectful thing to mom

00:07:27and see what happens.

00:07:28No need to shout, Nathan.

00:07:29My hearing's fine.

00:07:30And let me remind you all,

00:07:31I'm naturally allergic to family,

00:07:33especially the low-grade kind

00:07:35that can't handle favoritism

00:07:36or basic logic.

00:07:41Mom,

00:07:41this is your favorite Wagyu.

00:07:43Have some more?

00:07:44Yes, yes.

00:07:45Only Chloe thinks of her mom.

00:07:49Something wrong?

00:07:50Not used to home cooking?

00:07:52Eleanor,

00:07:52you're probably more used

00:07:53to home-style food from Greenwich.

00:07:54This pan-seed scallop

00:07:56with saffron foam

00:07:56and Ocetra caviar

00:07:57is made by our private chef.

00:07:58Very refined technique.

00:07:59Maybe it's too fancy

00:08:00for you to get used to right away.

00:08:02It's not fancy.

00:08:03It's bad.

00:08:04Eleanor,

00:08:05this chef has been with the Sterlings

00:08:06for over a decade.

00:08:07He's cooked for countless VIPs.

00:08:09Then you're all too polite

00:08:10or none of you has working taste buds.

00:08:12The scallops are rubbery enough

00:08:13to be used as tires,

00:08:14overcooked and totally devoid of sweetness.

00:08:16The saffron foam is broken

00:08:16and honestly,

00:08:17it tastes like dish soap.

00:08:18As for this Ocetra caviar,

00:08:19it's clearly low-grade,

00:08:20overly salty

00:08:21and lacks any of the nutty complexity

00:08:22it should have.

00:08:23This dish is just like this family.

00:08:25Polished on the surface,

00:08:26empty underneath.

00:08:27Bland and badly done.

00:08:28Oh, please.

00:08:30You grew up out in the sticks.

00:08:31What do you know

00:08:31about high-end private dining?

00:08:33Have you even seen food

00:08:34this nice before?

00:08:35Nathan,

00:08:36I grew up on the East Coast,

00:08:37not in a cave in the jungle.

00:08:39Is your worldview

00:08:40really just two categories?

00:08:41The Sterlings on their high horse

00:08:42and everyone else

00:08:43surviving in the wild?

00:08:44That's enough!

00:08:45It's just dinner, Eleanor.

00:08:46Do you have to make

00:08:46the whole family miserable?

00:08:48Let's get one thing straight,

00:08:49Mr. Sterling.

00:08:50You're the ones

00:08:51who made a big production

00:08:52out of bringing me back.

00:08:53You brought me here,

00:08:54gave me a storage closet

00:08:55instead of a bedroom,

00:08:56and showed me zero respect.

00:09:00Did you outsource

00:09:01your welcome home protocol

00:09:02to some cheap manipulation seminar?

00:09:04Zero class.

00:09:05Honestly, I'm impressed.

00:09:06You...

00:09:06How can you talk about

00:09:07your parents like that?

00:09:08Eleanor,

00:09:09is it because you hate me

00:09:10that you hate everything

00:09:10about this house?

00:09:11If I bother you that much,

00:09:12I just won't come down

00:09:13for dinner anymore.

00:09:14Don't flatter yourself, sis.

00:09:15The food being bad

00:09:16is the chef's problem.

00:09:16You being dramatic

00:09:17is your personality problem.

00:09:18Two separate things.

00:09:19I keep them very clean.

00:09:21Eleanor,

00:09:21apologize to Chloe right now.

00:09:23Sorry, time's up.

00:09:23Greenish girls have a strict schedule.

00:09:25Time for what?

00:09:25It's 9 p.m.

00:09:26Past my bedtime,

00:09:27I don't deal with

00:09:27low-quality emotional drama.

00:09:29Eleanor,

00:09:30you're completely impossible.

00:09:33Also,

00:09:33let me remind you all

00:09:34of something.

00:09:35Starting tomorrow,

00:09:36I'll arrange my own meals.

00:09:37I'll cover the cost myself.

00:09:38What are you trying to prove?

00:09:39You think the Sterlings

00:09:40can't afford to feed you?

00:09:41Good,

00:09:42because I'd hate for you

00:09:42to mooch off my meals.

00:09:44Miss,

00:09:45your favorite premium

00:09:45black truffle consomme.

00:09:47Just finished.

00:09:47Drink it while it's hot.

00:09:49Miss Wiltmore,

00:09:49this is nourishing too.

00:09:51Drink up.

00:09:53Can I ask you something?

00:09:55Why does she get

00:09:55black truffle consomme

00:09:56and I get cream of mushroom soup?

00:09:58No need to read into it,

00:09:59Miss Whitmorth.

00:10:00Miss Sterling has always

00:10:01had a delicate constitution.

00:10:03Mrs. Sterling specifically

00:10:03asked for her

00:10:04to be nourished carefully.

00:10:05When it comes to supplements,

00:10:07there's a first-come,

00:10:07first-served order.

00:10:09Eleanor,

00:10:09this was my oversight.

00:10:10Mrs. Henderson

00:10:10was just following

00:10:11the old routine.

00:10:12If you want black truffle consomme,

00:10:14I'll make sure they prepare

00:10:14double portions tomorrow.

00:10:16What's your name?

00:10:17Henderson.

00:10:17Everyone here calls me

00:10:18Mrs. Henderson.

00:10:19Mrs. Henderson,

00:10:20how many years have you

00:10:21worked for the Sterlings?

00:10:22Twelve years.

00:10:23I watched Miss Sterling

00:10:24and Master Nathan grow up.

00:10:25There isn't a thing

00:10:26in this house I don't know.

00:10:27Good.

00:10:28If you've been here that long,

00:10:29your professionalism

00:10:30should be top-notch.

00:10:31I need you,

00:10:32or your nephew,

00:10:33whoever's better with computers,

00:10:34to email me

00:10:35your employment contract,

00:10:36your complete salary history,

00:10:37and your procurement expense reports

00:10:39from the last three years.

00:10:40What is this?

00:10:41You want to audit my books?

00:10:43I've worked for the Sterlings

00:10:44for twelve years.

00:10:45Nobody has ever spoken

00:10:45to me like this.

00:10:47Nothing personal.

00:10:49I just want to see

00:10:49if your level of service,

00:10:51openly distributing food

00:10:52based on favoritism,

00:10:53is actually worth

00:10:53twelve years of salary.

00:10:54Eleanor!

00:10:56Mrs. Henderson

00:10:57has been with this family

00:10:58for over a decade.

00:10:59She's worked hard.

00:11:00Auditing her books

00:11:01on your first day back

00:11:02is going too far.

00:11:03Mr. Sterling,

00:11:04if she's such a veteran,

00:11:05she should care

00:11:05about her reputation.

00:11:06A person with dignity

00:11:07keeps their books clean.

00:11:08Mrs. Henderson, right?

00:11:09If your books are fine,

00:11:10what are you afraid of?

00:11:11Eleanor,

00:11:12please don't make things

00:11:13hard for Mrs. Henderson.

00:11:14She works so hard

00:11:15taking care of me every day.

00:11:16She deserves some consideration.

00:11:18Oh.

00:11:20Then I should audit

00:11:21even more carefully.

00:11:22After all,

00:11:22the person she's working

00:11:23hard for is you,

00:11:24but the money she's spending

00:11:25belongs to the Sterlings.

00:11:28Legally speaking,

00:11:29every cent Mrs. Henderson

00:11:29wastes comes out

00:11:30of my legal inheritance share.

00:11:31I need to settle this account.

00:11:33Eleanor, are you insane?

00:11:34You're even calculating this?

00:11:35Eleanor,

00:11:36is this what they taught

00:11:37you at the Whitmans?

00:11:38How can you talk

00:11:39about nothing but money?

00:11:40It's so cold.

00:11:41You're right, Mrs. Sterling,

00:11:42because so far,

00:11:43the only thing this family

00:11:44has shown me

00:11:45that's worth keeping

00:11:45is money.

00:11:52Miss Whitnard,

00:11:53Mrs. Whitner specifically

00:11:53asked me to bring this.

00:11:54She said you probably

00:11:55didn't eat well

00:11:56at the Sterlings last night,

00:11:57so have a little something

00:11:57to tide you over.

00:11:58Thank you.

00:11:59Mrs. Whitner also said

00:12:00she'll bring the chef

00:12:01herself for lunch,

00:12:02guaranteed to be

00:12:02clean and fresh.

00:12:07Well, well, Eleanor.

00:12:08Quite the setup

00:12:09you've got going on.

00:12:10First day back

00:12:10and you're already

00:12:11ordering takeout?

00:12:12You really think

00:12:12this place is a hotel?

00:12:16If this were a hotel,

00:12:17the staff would at least

00:12:18ask if the guest

00:12:18is comfortable.

00:12:19Your family?

00:12:20Honestly,

00:12:21not even as clean

00:12:21as a hotel.

00:12:22You...

00:12:25Eleanor, have you had enough?

00:12:27Having strangers

00:12:27traipshing in and out

00:12:28first thing in the morning,

00:12:29what will people think?

00:12:30Do the Sterlings

00:12:30have any reputation left?

00:12:33This isn't causing

00:12:34a scene, Mr. Sterling.

00:12:35This is what a properly

00:12:36raised person's

00:12:37lifestyle looks like.

00:12:39My parents taught me

00:12:40never to mistreat

00:12:40my stomach

00:12:41and never to mistreat

00:12:42my peace of mind

00:12:43no matter the circumstances.

00:12:44Eleanor,

00:12:45did your adoptive parents

00:12:46always spoil you like this,

00:12:47all this fuss

00:12:48just for breakfast?

00:12:49They do.

00:12:49Their philosophy is

00:12:50spoil the body and soul,

00:12:51never let yourself be wronged.

00:12:53That's why I'm emotionally stable

00:12:54and physically healthy.

00:12:55I learned early on,

00:12:56if you want something,

00:12:57go get it yourself

00:12:58or pay for it.

00:12:59You never cry

00:12:59to get attention.

00:13:01Eleanor,

00:13:01how can you talk like that?

00:13:02Don't target Chloe again.

00:13:04Think what you want.

00:13:04I can't be bothered to explain.

00:13:13Miss Whitford,

00:13:14I've put your things

00:13:15away for you.

00:13:15Mrs. Sterling said

00:13:16you'd be staying here

00:13:17temporarily while the house

00:13:18gets renovated.

00:13:19Who told you

00:13:20you could touch my luggage?

00:13:21I was trying to help.

00:13:22You just got here.

00:13:23You don't know

00:13:24how things work.

00:13:24I organized everything

00:13:25for you

00:13:26and you're not even grateful?

00:13:33What are you laughing at?

00:13:36I'm laughing at your

00:13:37lack of professional skills.

00:13:41I'm laughing that someone

00:13:42who's been here 12 years

00:13:43doesn't even know

00:13:44to avoid the security camera angle

00:13:45before going through

00:13:46someone's private belongings.

00:13:50Right now,

00:13:51not only do I have proof

00:13:52you illegally went through

00:13:53my things,

00:13:53but your little attitude

00:13:54just now is all on camera too.

00:14:07Eleanor,

00:14:07please don't scare

00:14:08Mrs. Henderson.

00:14:08She's older.

00:14:09She was just trying to help.

00:14:10Maybe she was a little rough

00:14:11with your things,

00:14:12but don't blame her.

00:14:13Kind?

00:14:14Kind enough to open

00:14:15my sealed document bag

00:14:16and scatter everything inside?

00:14:19Eleanor,

00:14:19can you go one day

00:14:20without starting something?

00:14:21We hired Mrs. Henderson

00:14:23to take care of people,

00:14:23not to be interrogated by you.

00:14:26Since you think

00:14:26I'm starting something,

00:14:27take a look for yourself, Nathan.

00:14:38Since the Stelis

00:14:39don't think there's

00:14:39a suitable room

00:14:40for their biological daughter,

00:14:41I don't want to make

00:14:41things difficult for anyone.

00:14:43Last night,

00:14:43I already asked my dad

00:14:44to talk to the owner

00:14:45of the house next door.

00:14:46Next door?

00:14:47You want to live next door?

00:14:48Yep.

00:14:48I looked at it.

00:14:49Cleaner than this place

00:14:50and the decor

00:14:51isn't quite so flashy.

00:14:52I'm buying it.

00:14:53I'll live there.

00:14:55This is absurd.

00:14:56Absolutely absurd.

00:14:57You move out the day

00:14:58after you get here,

00:14:59what will people think?

00:15:00They'll say the Stelis

00:15:01are cruel to their own daughter.

00:15:03And what will they think

00:15:03when they find out

00:15:04you put your biological daughter

00:15:05in a dusty storage closet?

00:15:07And even the staff

00:15:08can go through her things

00:15:09whenever they want.

00:15:10Eleanor,

00:15:11are you still mad

00:15:12that I took the room

00:15:13that was supposed to be yours?

00:15:14I'm sorry,

00:15:15I can move out right now.

00:15:16I'll start packing.

00:15:16Don't move.

00:15:16You stay in yours,

00:15:17I'll buy mine.

00:15:18In my family,

00:15:19we don't solve conflicts

00:15:19by taking things.

00:15:20We just buy them.

00:15:21Buy?

00:15:22Eleanor,

00:15:23do you know how much

00:15:23that villa next door costs?

00:15:2520 million dollars.

00:15:26You think you're buying

00:15:27cabbage back in Greenwich?

00:15:32Sir,

00:15:32the owner of the house

00:15:33next door is here

00:15:34and he brought lawyers

00:15:35and a real estate agent.

00:15:36They say they're here

00:15:36to sign the contract.

00:15:52Sweetie,

00:15:53did you sleep well last night?

00:15:54Not really.

00:15:55Too much dust.

00:15:57Madam,

00:15:58may I ask who you're...

00:16:04I'm Eleanor's mother.

00:16:09Mrs. Whitmore,

00:16:11since the child

00:16:11has been returned

00:16:12to the Sterlings,

00:16:13this is our family matter.

00:16:14You showing up

00:16:15with lawyers and agents,

00:16:16buying the house next door,

00:16:17isn't that a bit inappropriate?

00:16:19Let's not talk about

00:16:20what's appropriate yet,

00:16:21Mr. Sterling.

00:16:22Let's talk about

00:16:22something more practical.

00:16:24Like,

00:16:25the three debts

00:16:26Sterling Corp.

00:16:26has coming due next quarter.

00:16:28The largest one?

00:16:29The creditor is me.

00:16:34So today,

00:16:35I'm not just here

00:16:36as Eleanor's adoptive mother

00:16:37to pick up my daughter.

00:16:38I'm also here as a creditor

00:16:40to see if the Sterlings

00:16:41still have any intention

00:16:42of repaying what you owe.

00:16:44You...

00:16:44What did you say?

00:16:45The largest creditor

00:16:46is you?

00:16:49Mr. Sterling,

00:16:50this is the debt assignment agreement

00:16:50and the collateral list.

00:16:51Three years ago,

00:16:52when Sterling was having

00:16:53cash flow problems,

00:16:54you borrowed money

00:16:54through an intermediary,

00:16:55two loans,

00:16:56then you pledged

00:16:57some equity as cladible

00:16:58for supply chain financing.

00:16:59Mr. Sterling,

00:17:00you've been in business

00:17:01long enough.

00:17:02Did you really think

00:17:03that life-saving money

00:17:03just fell from the sky?

00:17:05Dad, what's going on?

00:17:06The company always said

00:17:07operations were stable.

00:17:08Mrs. Wiltmore,

00:17:09there must be

00:17:10some misunderstanding.

00:17:10There's no misunderstanding.

00:17:12The misunderstanding

00:17:13is yours.

00:17:14You thought Eleanor

00:17:15had nowhere to go

00:17:16once she left the Sterlings

00:17:17so you felt free

00:17:17to stick her

00:17:18in a storage closet.

00:17:19Mrs. Wiltmore,

00:17:21debts are debts.

00:17:22Family is family.

00:17:23You can't use contracts

00:17:24to talk about family bonds.

00:17:25Of course.

00:17:26Debts we can handle

00:17:27by contract.

00:17:28So I won't waste words today.

00:17:30I just have one question.

00:17:31How do you plan

00:17:32to take care of my daughter?

00:17:35Aunt Whitware!

00:17:36I'm sorry,

00:17:37this is all my fault.

00:17:38I shouldn't have

00:17:38taken Eleanor's room.

00:17:39I didn't know the family

00:17:40owed so much money.

00:17:41I'll move out right now.

00:17:41I'll go to the attic.

00:17:42Chloe, calm down.

00:17:44Chloe, you already used

00:17:45that retreat to advance

00:17:45move last night.

00:17:46Repeating the same act

00:17:47gets boring for the audience.

00:17:49Eleanor, I'm sorry.

00:17:50Please don't be like this.

00:17:51I really didn't mean

00:17:52to upset you.

00:17:53I just wanted you

00:17:54to feel welcome here.

00:17:55I wanted you to calm down.

00:17:57Don't worry, sis.

00:17:58I'm not upset.

00:17:59Then you're not mad?

00:18:01I just think your acting

00:18:01skills are mediocre.

00:18:03If you're going to frame me

00:18:04and play the victim,

00:18:04at least avoid the security

00:18:05cameras in the hallway.

00:18:10Don't stand there

00:18:10acting innocent

00:18:11after you and Mrs. Henderson

00:18:12conspired to go

00:18:13through my luggage

00:18:13last night.

00:18:17What?

00:18:18Eleanor, what are you

00:18:18talking about?

00:18:19What luggage?

00:18:19What cameras?

00:18:22Mrs. Henderson,

00:18:23when she's not around,

00:18:24go through that document

00:18:25bag of hers.

00:18:26Take photos if you can.

00:18:27A girl raised outside

00:18:28can't actually have

00:18:29any real money.

00:18:30It's all an act.

00:18:31Miss, but what if

00:18:32she finds out?

00:18:33So what if she finds out?

00:18:34Just say you were

00:18:35helping her unpack.

00:18:36Dad, Mum, and Nathan

00:18:37will always believe me.

00:18:40Chloe, you really asked

00:18:42Mrs. Henderson to go

00:18:43through Eleanor's things,

00:18:44but you've always been

00:18:45so sweet.

00:18:46It's not like that, Mom.

00:18:48It's not what it looks

00:18:49like in the video.

00:18:49I was just, I was just

00:18:51so scared.

00:18:52Scared that Eleanor hated me.

00:18:53Scared you wouldn't

00:18:54want me anymore.

00:18:55I really didn't mean

00:18:56any harm.

00:18:57Yeah, you didn't mean

00:18:58any harm.

00:18:59You're just naturally evil.

00:19:00Evil comes naturally to you.

00:19:03Since the Sterlings

00:19:04still haven't learned

00:19:05how to give Eleanor

00:19:06basic respect,

00:19:06my daughter doesn't need

00:19:07to stay here

00:19:08and be mistreated.

00:19:09I've already bought

00:19:09the house next door.

00:19:11Eleanor will stay there

00:19:11for now.

00:19:12As for those three

00:19:13Sterling Corp debts

00:19:14coming due,

00:19:14when I get back,

00:19:15I'll have the legal team

00:19:16re-evaluate Sterling's

00:19:17debt repayment capacity.

00:19:18If it doesn't pass,

00:19:19we'll proceed with

00:19:20early collection

00:19:21for the contract.

00:19:22No need to be so nervous,

00:19:23Mr. Sterling.

00:19:24I play by the rules.

00:19:25I'm not here to make

00:19:26things difficult for you.

00:19:27I'm here today to make

00:19:27one thing perfectly clear.

00:19:29My daughter,

00:19:30a Whitmore,

00:19:30is not without backup

00:19:31in your Sterling household.

00:19:33Come on, sweetie.

00:19:34Let's go home.

00:19:46Eleanor,

00:19:47I've swapped the flowers

00:19:47for the hydrangeas you like

00:19:48and the diffuser

00:19:49is set to cedar.

00:19:50Hmm, good.

00:19:52Go see who's ruining the vibe.

00:19:59Eleanor,

00:19:59dinner is at the house.

00:20:01Dad wants you there.

00:20:01The house?

00:20:02Which one?

00:20:03The Sterling estate.

00:20:04Where else?

00:20:05Pass.

00:20:06Why not?

00:20:07They're waiting for you.

00:20:08Send me the menu first.

00:20:10If it's bad,

00:20:10I'm not showing up.

00:20:11Are you serious?

00:20:12The family is in chaos

00:20:13because of you

00:20:13and you're acting

00:20:14like a spoiled brat?

00:20:15Nathan,

00:20:15let's get one thing straight.

00:20:16I'm not a debtor

00:20:17you need to collect from.

00:20:18I don't have to play along

00:20:19with your broken

00:20:20family repayment plan.

00:20:22About last night,

00:20:23I watched the security footage.

00:20:25I had no idea

00:20:25Chloe would do something like that.

00:20:27I thought she was just fragile.

00:20:28You had no idea?

00:20:29Nathan,

00:20:30do you even use those eyes?

00:20:31You had no idea

00:20:32because deep down

00:20:33you didn't want to know.

00:20:37If you're not going

00:20:37to use those eyes,

00:20:38consider donating them

00:20:39to a street light.

00:20:40At least those things

00:20:41light up at night.

00:20:42You just make everything worse.

00:20:44I'm sorry.

00:20:45I was terrible to you before.

00:20:46I was an idiot.

00:20:47I judged you before I knew you.

00:20:48Apology received.

00:20:50Forgiveness?

00:20:50Sorry,

00:20:51the line's pretty long right now.

00:20:52How long's the wait?

00:20:53Depends on your performance.

00:20:56Can you do me a favor first?

00:20:57Let's hear it.

00:20:58At school,

00:20:59people are mocking us.

00:21:01They're calling Chloe a fraud

00:21:01and laughing at me

00:21:02for being a fool.

00:21:03Let's go.

00:21:05Go where?

00:21:06To school.

00:21:08You'll help me?

00:21:09Nathan,

00:21:09remember this.

00:21:11Greenwich kids

00:21:11can fight each other

00:21:12behind closed doors,

00:21:13but we never let

00:21:13outsiders laugh at us.

00:21:16Whatever happens between us

00:21:18stays in the family.

00:21:19As far as the rest

00:21:19of the world is concerned,

00:21:20we're still brother and sister.

00:21:21Same blood,

00:21:22same family.

00:21:23Anyone who comes after you

00:21:24answers to me.

00:21:24Got it?

00:21:31What about Chloe?

00:21:32She's too humiliated

00:21:33to show her face today.

00:21:39Bring her.

00:21:40Wait,

00:21:41you actually want her there?

00:21:42She can be a drama

00:21:43press all she wants,

00:21:44but she's still a Sterling.

00:21:45If some random rich kid

00:21:47bullies her,

00:21:47it reflects on me.

00:21:48Like I said,

00:21:50family drama stays indoors.

00:21:58Well,

00:21:59well.

00:21:59The real and fake sisters,

00:22:01finally in one frame.

00:22:02Rough week,

00:22:03Nathan?

00:22:03I heard the sister you raised

00:22:04for 20 years is a fraud,

00:22:06and the real one hates

00:22:07your family so much

00:22:08she moved out on day one.

00:22:10You must be Seth Costillo.

00:22:11That's me.

00:22:12And you're the stray

00:22:12they brought home?

00:22:13I'm the one who bought

00:22:14the $20 million villa

00:22:15next door last night.

00:22:16You want in on the action?

00:22:17Maybe by graduation

00:22:18you can afford a parking spot

00:22:19in my garage.

00:22:19What did you say to me?

00:22:21Back off.

00:22:21I'm recording this.

00:22:23Harassment,

00:22:23bullying,

00:22:24and spreading false rumors.

00:22:25My family lawyers

00:22:26are looking for a new hobby.

00:22:27The Costellos look like

00:22:28a perfect target.

00:22:29Don't try to scare me.

00:22:30My dad is on the school board.

00:22:31Big deal.

00:22:32My mom,

00:22:33Catherine Whitmore,

00:22:34donated a whole science

00:22:35building last week.

00:22:36We own the naming rights.

00:22:38How about I name it

00:22:39the Seth Costello

00:22:39Legal Education Center?

00:22:41You like that?

00:22:42You're full of it!

00:22:43Wait, is that true?

00:22:44Did we really donate a building?

00:22:48The building is fake.

00:22:49But the recording is real,

00:22:51my legal team is real,

00:22:52and your lawsuit,

00:22:53that's about to be very real.

00:22:55Eleanor, are you crazy?

00:22:58Sorry, Greenwich girls

00:22:59don't do screaming matches

00:23:00in public.

00:23:04expect a process servant

00:23:05at your door by morning.

00:23:06Don't be late for class.

00:23:12Sir,

00:23:13what did the Costellos say?

00:23:14Are they pulling their investment

00:23:15from Sterling Corp?

00:23:16Pulling investment?

00:23:18No.

00:23:19Richard Costello

00:23:20called to apologize.

00:23:24Look into the legal team

00:23:25Eleanor has behind her.

00:23:27My daughter,

00:23:28she's far more dangerous

00:23:29than I realized.

00:23:38Eleanor,

00:23:38for you.

00:23:40Iced Americana?

00:23:41I thought girls your age

00:23:42liked it.

00:23:43For energy?

00:23:44I drink hot lattes,

00:23:45half sugar, oat milk.

00:23:46Nathan,

00:23:47your research is as bad

00:23:48as your social skills.

00:23:49Wrong order,

00:23:49but Abe...

00:23:49Sorry, I'll get a new one.

00:23:50Eleanor,

00:23:51about school yesterday.

00:23:52Thank you.

00:23:53Don't thank me.

00:23:54Just stop the waterworks

00:23:55on command.

00:23:56That's thanks enough.

00:23:58I'll,

00:23:58I'll try.

00:24:00Don't try.

00:24:00Just do it.

00:24:04Stay at the Sterlings

00:24:05if you want.

00:24:06That's your business.

00:24:07But don't make me your enemy.

00:24:08I don't fight over

00:24:09scraps of affection.

00:24:10If I actually wanted

00:24:11to compete, Chloe,

00:24:12you wouldn't even qualify

00:24:12for the race.

00:24:13Why don't you hate me?

00:24:14I took your life

00:24:15for 20 years.

00:24:16Who says I don't?

00:24:18But hating you

00:24:19doesn't mean I'm wasting

00:24:19my life on you.

00:24:21You're not the mest.

00:24:22I don't need to buy a ticket

00:24:23to walk through you.

00:24:26You're right, Eleanor.

00:24:28I was narrow-minded.

00:24:29Nathan,

00:24:30stop the flattery.

00:24:31I'm not writing

00:24:31your statement for you.

00:24:33How did you know

00:24:34I had to write an apology?

00:24:35Easy.

00:24:36Seth got spooked

00:24:37by my cease and deciled.

00:24:38He'll run to his dad.

00:24:39To save the board's face,

00:24:41the school will ask you,

00:24:42the offending person,

00:24:42for a statement

00:24:43to let the Costellos

00:24:44off the hook.

00:24:46You predicted that too?

00:24:48Because I use my brain.

00:24:49You just use your muscles.

00:24:52Try growing one, Nathan.

00:24:54It's useful.

00:25:04Is that from the Sterlings?

00:25:06You don't look thrilled.

00:25:07It's just a name

00:25:08on a screen,

00:25:09but the lobster rolls

00:25:11are hard to pass up.

00:25:12It's been a while

00:25:13since I had a decent one.

00:25:14So, you're going?

00:25:16Yes, but with conditions.

00:25:18Fine.

00:25:19If the food is bad,

00:25:20I'm leaving.

00:25:23Let's see if they've

00:25:24actually learned

00:25:24how to behave.

00:25:30Eleanor,

00:25:30try the side salad.

00:25:31I personally told the chef

00:25:32to cut the sugar.

00:25:33It should fit your palate.

00:25:35Better than last time.

00:25:36Eleanor,

00:25:37your latte,

00:25:38hot, half sugar, oat milk.

00:25:39Perfect ratio.

00:25:39I checked it myself.

00:25:40Passable.

00:25:43So, Eleanor,

00:25:44Sterling Corp

00:25:45has a major supply chain

00:25:46from it next week.

00:25:47Some big players

00:25:47will be there,

00:25:48interested in sitting in.

00:25:48Are you crazy?

00:25:49She just got back.

00:25:50Don't start pushing business on her.

00:25:52She's not your employee.

00:25:54I'm just asking

00:25:55if she's interested.

00:25:57I'll attend,

00:25:59but I charge by the hour

00:26:00and my rate is high.

00:26:02That's...

00:26:02You really don't do anything

00:26:03for free, do you?

00:26:05Remember this, Chloe.

00:26:07Greenwich girls can be sweet,

00:26:08but we always keep

00:26:09our eyes on the numbers.

00:26:11Clean books make

00:26:12for clean relationships.

00:26:13No emotional baggage.

00:26:15That's the only way

00:26:16we're going to survive

00:26:16each other.

00:26:19Eleanor,

00:26:20tomorrow is my birthday.

00:26:21I'd like you to be there.

00:26:22Not for the sake

00:26:23of appearances,

00:26:23but because I want the world

00:26:25to know you're my daughter.

00:26:27Miss,

00:26:28if you really don't want

00:26:29to go to Mrs. Sterling's birthday,

00:26:30we don't have to.

00:26:31It's right next door.

00:26:32We can just send a gift.

00:26:34I'll go.

00:26:35Why not?

00:26:36She said she wants

00:26:37to officially introduce me.

00:26:38I want to see

00:26:39what kind of show

00:26:39she's got planned.

00:26:50Eleanor,

00:26:51you came!

00:26:52I was worried you might...

00:26:53I said I'd come.

00:26:54I keep my promises.

00:26:55Everyone,

00:26:57please allow me

00:26:57to officially introduce you.

00:26:59This is my daughter,

00:27:00Eleanor Sterling.

00:27:02So this is the real daughter

00:27:03they found.

00:27:04She's got incredible poise.

00:27:05Doesn't look like

00:27:06she was raised outside at all.

00:27:07Mrs. Sterling's introduction

00:27:08is pretty meaningful.

00:27:09Looks like she's

00:27:10making it official.

00:27:14What?

00:27:15Gonna start the waterworks again

00:27:16at an event like this?

00:27:18I'm fine, sis.

00:27:20Today,

00:27:20it's Mom's birthday.

00:27:21I know what matters.

00:27:23Not bad.

00:27:24Looks like the past few days

00:27:26of education weren't wasted.

00:27:27Your emotional management

00:27:28is improving.

00:27:31Thanks.

00:27:38Well, well, sister.

00:27:40So this is the biological daughter

00:27:41you just found.

00:27:42Sandra,

00:27:42she's certainly pretty,

00:27:44takes after you,

00:27:45but I heard she was raised outside,

00:27:47small town background.

00:27:48Don't want her embarrassing

00:27:49the Sterlings in front

00:27:50of all these people, right?

00:27:51Sandra, Eleanor has excellent manners.

00:27:53Don't talk nonsense.

00:27:54And you're?

00:27:55I'm your aunt,

00:27:56Sandra Mercer.

00:27:57I see.

00:28:00Is that your idea

00:28:01of a welcome gift?

00:28:08Quite the attitude

00:28:09for someone

00:28:09who just raised you well.

00:28:10Now that you're back

00:28:11with the Sterlings,

00:28:12we're family.

00:28:13Shouldn't you look out

00:28:14for your own blood?

00:28:15Look out for you?

00:28:16How?

00:28:17Your cousin

00:28:18is starting a business.

00:28:19He needs a little seed money.

00:28:20Nothing crazy.

00:28:21Just $800,000.

00:28:23$800,000?

00:28:25It's pocket change.

00:28:27Your parents are loaded.

00:28:28Since we're family,

00:28:29don't be so stingy.

00:28:30Does she always treat

00:28:31the family like an ATM?

00:28:32What's with the tone?

00:28:33Eleanor, we're family.

00:28:34Talking about money like this

00:28:35is insulting.

00:28:36It ruins the bond.

00:28:38You're wrong.

00:28:39In Greenwich,

00:28:40not talking about money

00:28:40is what ruins the bond.

00:28:43What the hell

00:28:43does that even mean?

00:28:44It means,

00:28:45I don't mind a loan,

00:28:46but we sign a contract first.

00:28:48Market rate, interest,

00:28:49full collateral,

00:28:49and if you default,

00:28:50I sue.

00:28:51If that's too much

00:28:52paperwork for you,

00:28:53don't ask.

00:28:54I am your mother's sister,

00:28:55your own flesh and blood.

00:28:57How can you be so heartless?

00:28:58Being an aunt

00:28:59isn't a credit card.

00:29:00If you need money,

00:29:02go to a bank.

00:29:02If they won't lend to you,

00:29:03it means you're a bad risk.

00:29:04And if the Sterlings

00:29:05used to lend to you,

00:29:06it just means

00:29:06they were clueless suckers.

00:29:07Margaret,

00:29:08are you just gonna stand there?

00:29:09You're going to let her

00:29:10humiliate your own sister

00:29:11in front of everyone?

00:29:15Sandra,

00:29:15Eleanor is right.

00:29:17All the money

00:29:17you've taken from us

00:29:18over the years,

00:29:19it's time you paid it back.

00:29:20Are you crazy?

00:29:22You're taking her side?

00:29:23She's not crazy.

00:29:25She's finally being smart.

00:29:26You owe Sterling Corp

00:29:27$3,620,000.

00:29:29I've already had

00:29:30the finance team

00:29:30pull the records.

00:29:31Pay it back

00:29:32or we'll see you in court.

00:29:33You've all lost it.

00:29:34You're throwing away family

00:29:35for a girl who just showed up?

00:29:38Aunt Sandra,

00:29:39family is family,

00:29:40but accounts are accounts.

00:29:41Keep it clean.

00:29:42Exactly.

00:29:42We're not a charity.

00:29:43Stop using us

00:29:43as your personal fund.

00:29:45Great.

00:29:45My boundary issues

00:29:46are contagious.

00:29:47I learn from the best.

00:29:48Keep it clean.

00:30:01Eleanor,

00:30:01about what happened

00:30:02with Sandra,

00:30:03your aunt,

00:30:03at the banquet tonight.

00:30:04I saw it.

00:30:05You actually surprised me

00:30:06tonight,

00:30:07Mrs. Sterling.

00:30:07I used to think

00:30:08we were all family.

00:30:10Sandra's my sister.

00:30:11When she came to borrow money,

00:30:12when she caused trouble,

00:30:13I thought if I just endured,

00:30:14if I just gave in,

00:30:15everything would be peaceful.

00:30:16But watching you settle accounts

00:30:17with her tonight,

00:30:18I finally get it.

00:30:20The more I give in,

00:30:21the more they take it for granted,

00:30:22the more they want to bite a beast

00:30:23out of the Sterlings.

00:30:24It's not too late

00:30:24to figure that out now,

00:30:25Mrs. Sterling.

00:30:30And you?

00:30:31Eleanor,

00:30:32you helped the Sterlings tonight.

00:30:33You helped Chloe.

00:30:35Do you,

00:30:35do you still want to acknowledge me

00:30:37as your mom?

00:30:43I'm sorry.

00:30:44I'm being too pushy.

00:30:45You just got back.

00:30:45I shouldn't.

00:30:46Mrs. Sterling.

00:30:48A birth certificate

00:30:49may prove we're related,

00:30:50but it doesn't make us

00:30:50a family overnight.

00:30:52But where I come from,

00:30:53trust has to be earned.

00:30:55So consider this a trial period.

00:30:57A trial?

00:30:58A family probation period.

00:30:59Respect my boundaries,

00:31:01stay out of my belongings,

00:31:02and keep the drama to a minimum.

00:31:03Then maybe we can talk about

00:31:04having a real relationship.

00:31:06Okay.

00:31:07A trial.

00:31:08I'll be on my best behavior.

00:31:10I promise I won't get returned.

00:31:17Eleanor,

00:31:18here is some ice lemonade,

00:31:19freshly made.

00:31:20When a flower grows crooked,

00:31:21Carter,

00:31:22you prune it.

00:31:23It drains the nutrients.

00:31:24It's not clean.

00:31:25Yes, Eleanor.

00:31:26A very clean cut.

00:31:34Carter,

00:31:35go see who's ruining my gate

00:31:36with that noisy engine.

00:31:37Eleanor,

00:31:38it's me,

00:31:39Seth Castell.

00:31:40Came to check out your new place?

00:31:41Congrats.

00:31:46Look,

00:31:47latest hot couture bags this season.

00:31:49Took some real work to get these.

00:31:51Wrong house, Costillo.

00:31:52Chloe is next door.

00:31:54Turn left.

00:31:54Don't bring her up.

00:31:55I was blind before.

00:31:57We went to the same school.

00:31:58We're in the same circle.

00:31:59Seth,

00:32:00unwarranted favors

00:32:01usually mean one thing.

00:32:02You're trying to dodge a debt.

00:32:04I'm just trying to find a win-win here.

00:32:07If we're talking about Costello Group,

00:32:08let's skip the alumni nostalgia.

00:32:10Nostalgia is expensive.

00:32:11Cash is clean.

00:32:12My dad owes the Whitmore Trust,

00:32:13but it's just a temporary cash flow glitch.

00:32:15Can't we restructure the debt?

00:32:16You can use any Costello resource in Aurora Bay.

00:32:18You want to use unclean personal favors

00:32:20to offset a legal debt?

00:32:22Do we really have to be this formal?

00:32:31This is the Excel sheet I made last night.

00:32:33Take a look.

00:32:34Eleanor,

00:32:35this is down to the scent.

00:32:37Seth,

00:32:37clean books are the baseline.

00:32:39You call this good faith?

00:32:40That sports car has insane depression.

00:32:42It covers maybe three days of interest.

00:32:44As for those bags,

00:32:46last season stuff.

00:32:47It doesn't even cover the scents.

00:32:49Are you really giving the Costellos zero face?

00:32:51Faces earned, Seth.

00:32:53Not begged for.

00:32:58If the first late fee isn't in my account by 5 p.m.,

00:33:00Whitmore Legal will disrupt

00:33:01Costello Group's board meeting tomorrow morning.

00:33:05Carter,

00:33:05see him out.

00:33:06Clear the space.

00:33:07Those cheap boxes attract flies.

00:33:09Eleanor,

00:33:10you're insane.

00:33:14Drive safe, Costello.

00:33:15Gas isn't cheap.

00:33:16Don't come back begging for a loan to fill your tank.

00:33:22Eleanor,

00:33:23there's a dinner event you need to attend tonight.

00:33:25I hope the food there is better than the last one.

00:33:36Eleanor,

00:33:37you made it.

00:33:38The biggest power players in Aurora Bay are here.

00:33:40I can bridge the gap for you,

00:33:41make things a lot smoother for Sterling Corp.

00:33:43A smooth path is built on high credit ratings and solid contracts, Seth.

00:33:47Not bridge building.

00:33:49But let's see if these people's books are as clean as their suits.

00:33:51So this is the one,

00:33:52the Whitmore girl from Greenwich.

00:33:54I heard she's a trust beneficiary,

00:33:55but with the Sterling inheritance in question,

00:33:57who knows where she'll stand by next quarter?

00:33:59Succession is a messy business,

00:34:01especially for an outsider trying to play in Aurora Bay.

00:34:03You need more than just a family name

00:34:05to keep your board from revolting, Miss Whitmore.

00:34:07Exactly.

00:34:08Obedience is a valuable asset.

00:34:09Seth, you should teach Eleanor how we do things here.

00:34:11The entry fee for this circle isn't cheap.

00:34:14Since we're talking about entry facts and rules,

00:34:16let's talk about liquidity.

00:34:18Does anyone here actually have any?

00:34:20Mrs. Caldwell,

00:34:21your husband's construction firm

00:34:22has three outstanding invoices with Sterling Corp,

00:34:25totaling 1.2 million.

00:34:26You're 30 days past due.

00:34:28That necklace you're wearing,

00:34:29it matches the exact amount of the late fees you owe us.

00:34:33That's just a private accounting lag.

00:34:37And Trey,

00:34:38that land you just mortgaged in the South?

00:34:40The primary creditor is a trust managed by the Whitmores.

00:34:43You're at risk of a covenant breach by Wednesday.

00:34:47You're drinking a $5,000 bottle of wine

00:34:49while your equity is averaging?

00:34:50That's bad optics.

00:34:52Keep it clean.

00:34:53Pay your debts before you try to offer me introductions.

00:34:58Boring.

00:35:03Eleanor, I'm sorry.

00:35:04I shouldn't have exposed you to their garbage.

00:35:06I'll make it up to you.

00:35:07Let's go to Fifth Avenue tomorrow.

00:35:08I'll clear out any store you want.

00:35:10I don't need a shopping spree to fix a bad dinner, Seth.

00:35:12And I don't need your charity.

00:35:15Sincerity isn't a blank check.

00:35:16It's staying out of the red.

00:35:17I didn't come here to split the bill.

00:35:18I came here to audit the room.

00:35:19You didn't just audit them.

00:35:20You liquidated their reputations.

00:35:21When the books are clean,

00:35:22the trash takes itself out.

00:35:27She's not just an iris.

00:35:28She's a one-woman wrecking ball

00:35:29to the entire city's ego.

00:35:37The media.

00:35:38How can they post such garbage?

00:35:40Eleanor would never do this.

00:35:42They're trying to destroy her reputation.

00:35:44Don't look at it, Margaret.

00:35:45Sandra paid the tabloids to run this story.

00:35:47She's trying to force you to wipe her debts

00:35:49with Sterling Corp.

00:35:50My chest.

00:35:52It hurts.

00:35:53Get the car ready now.

00:35:54I need to confront the editor-in-chief face-to-face.

00:35:57No need for a scene.

00:35:58Going to the hospital just gives her more PR leverage.

00:36:01Wasting money on her narratives isn't clean.

00:36:03Eleanor, how can you be so detached?

00:36:05Look at what they're calling you.

00:36:07Heartless.

00:36:07Money-obsessed.

00:36:08They can type whatever they want.

00:36:10The cash stays in my account.

00:36:12Emotional drama yields zero return.

00:36:15Look at her, everyone.

00:36:17This is the real daughter of the Sterlings.

00:36:19Living like a queen in Aurora Bay

00:36:21while the parents who raised her

00:36:22rot in a moldy shack in Greenwich.

00:36:25She won't even cover their medical bills.

00:36:27Yeah, I might be down on my luck,

00:36:28but I can't stand a gold digger.

00:36:29Mrs. Witt here,

00:36:30your adoptive parents saved you from the streets.

00:36:32You're going to burn in hell for this.

00:36:34Sandra,

00:36:35you're violating your conditions of release.

00:36:37This is defamation.

00:36:44Sandra, Frankie,

00:36:46since you're so deeply concerned

00:36:47about my adoptive family's poverty,

00:36:49I can't let you leave empty-handed.

00:36:50What?

00:36:51Want to pay us to shut up?

00:36:52Too late.

00:36:53The whole internet is watching live.

00:36:55Get the blue folder for my briefcase.

00:36:57Since you want to talk assets,

00:36:59let's run the audit.

00:37:00Those three interconnected estates in Greenwich,

00:37:02market value,

00:37:03$35 million.

00:37:04They sit under my adoptive mother's name.

00:37:06Sandra,

00:37:07that moldy Mac you mentioned

00:37:08is registered as a historical landmark

00:37:09by the Connecticut government.

00:37:11That's a lie.

00:37:12They're just,

00:37:12they just manage commercial properties.

00:37:14This is the portfolio statement

00:37:16for 30 prime retail spaces

00:37:17the Whitmillers own on the East Coast.

00:37:19And this,

00:37:20the Whitmore Family Trust

00:37:21holds the debt of Sterling Corp

00:37:23and the deeds to two office towers

00:37:24in Aurora Bay's CBD.

00:37:25My adoptive father

00:37:26just cut a $2 million check

00:37:27to the Education Foundation last month

00:37:29and you say I abandoned them?

00:37:30My family's trust dividends

00:37:31could buy your entire existence

00:37:3310 times over.

00:37:34They don't need my money.

00:37:35They just need me to keep my life clean

00:37:36and free of garbage like you.

00:37:41Keep recording.

00:37:42That's the lead counsel

00:37:43for the Whitmores.

00:37:44First, harassment, bullying,

00:37:46and defamation.

00:37:46You know the statute, Sandra.

00:37:48Second, you just breached

00:37:49your conditions of release

00:37:50by trespassing and harassing a victim

00:37:51in case your bond money could buy.

00:37:52Eleanor is right.

00:37:54Security,

00:37:54throw these cons out of my house.

00:37:56Don't waste the energy.

00:37:59Mr. Harrison?

00:38:01Yes, Sandra Murder is at the estate.

00:38:03I have 20,000 live witnesses

00:38:05capturing the evidence right now.

00:38:06Please notify the judge immediately.

00:38:08The prosecutor needs to move

00:38:09to revoke her bond.

00:38:10Put her back in a cell.

00:38:12You can't buy your way

00:38:13back into this family, Sandra.

00:38:15But you will pay for what you've done.

00:38:19Feeling better now?

00:38:21No.

00:38:22I feel like I have never been more normal.

00:38:25Hmm.

00:38:36Eleanor, get out here!

00:38:37Eleanor!

00:38:38Seth, you're wasted.

00:38:39Let's go.

00:38:39If Eleanor sees you like this,

00:38:40she'll lose it.

00:38:41She has no heart.

00:38:43Everyone in this city is afraid of me.

00:38:44But her?

00:38:45She audits my life with a calculator.

00:38:47Eleanor, come out and settle the score!

00:38:53Eleanor, Seth Castell is making a scene at the gate.

00:38:56He's already woken up the neighbors.

00:38:57Should I call the police?

00:38:58A noise complaint should be enough

00:38:59to put him in a drunk lad for the night.

00:39:00It's 1.15 a.m.

00:39:02A police report involves paperwork

00:39:03that would cost me 30 minutes

00:39:04of deep sleep tomorrow.

00:39:06Open the gate.

00:39:07Someone needs to take out the trash.

00:39:09It's making an awful lot of noise.

00:39:15Eleanor, everyone says you're cold-blooded,

00:39:17but I love it.

00:39:18Ever since you sent me

00:39:18that cease and desist at school,

00:39:19I've been obsessed.

00:39:20Stop auditing me, okay?

00:39:22That debt, 10 million, 20 million,

00:39:23I'll give you myself as collateral.

00:39:24I like you, Eleanor.

00:39:25I mean it.

00:39:25You're slurring and your logic is failing.

00:39:27In plain English, you are intoxicated.

00:39:28Your words are worthless tonight.

00:39:29You're legally incapacitated.

00:39:31No promise or confession you make tonight

00:39:32carries any value.

00:39:33This isn't about value.

00:39:34It's about how I feel.

00:39:36Can't you stop being so precise for one second?

00:39:38Just be emotional with me.

00:39:39Emotion is what people reach for

00:39:41when they've lost control of the facts.

00:39:45This behavior is a mess, Seth.

00:39:46It's harassment

00:39:47and it's seriously overdrawing

00:39:49your credit ticket with me.

00:39:54See?

00:39:55Even when she's trashing me,

00:39:56she uses logic.

00:39:57God, she's perfect.

00:39:59Are we still doing

00:40:00the confession tomorrow, Seth?

00:40:02You don't get it.

00:40:03That's exactly why I want her.

00:40:05Hosed on the driveway.

00:40:06The smell of alcohol is offended.

00:40:07Clean it up.

00:40:08Right away.

00:40:17Look, I heard the Costellos

00:40:19are moving in tonight

00:40:19to absorb her shares

00:40:20through a strategic marriage.

00:40:22Seth, it's all set.

00:40:23Once the engagement is public,

00:40:25the media hype will force her hand.

00:40:26The Whitmore Axities

00:40:27will become Costello liquidity

00:40:28by morning.

00:40:29In her eyes,

00:40:31a family legacy

00:40:32isn't worth more than

00:40:32a quarterly report.

00:40:33What was that?

00:40:37If we go through with this,

00:40:39Costello Group

00:40:40might not exist by tomorrow.

00:40:41Please welcome the founder

00:40:43of tonight's gala,

00:40:44chairman of Costello Group,

00:40:45Richard Costello.

00:40:50Tonight is about giving,

00:40:52but it's also about legacy.

00:40:54To ensure the future

00:40:55of Aurora Bay,

00:40:56the Costello and Sterling families

00:40:58are uniting.

00:41:00I am thrilled to announce

00:41:02the official engagement

00:41:03of my son, Seth,

00:41:05to Eleanor Whitmore.

00:41:14Richard, you're moving too fast.

00:41:16In my world,

00:41:17we don't announce a merger

00:41:18before the due diligence

00:41:18is complete.

00:41:22Seth, this merger consideration,

00:41:24are you sure you want me

00:41:25to audit it in front

00:41:25of all these witnesses?

00:41:27I don't have the leverage

00:41:28to make you accept this.

00:41:31Since this is a charity gala,

00:41:32let's talk about embezzlement.

00:41:33Over the past three years,

00:41:35seven major transfers

00:41:36from the Costello Foundation

00:41:37have disappeared

00:41:37into shell companies.

00:41:39The first, 4.5 million,

00:41:40went to Mrs. Costello's

00:41:41offshore account.

00:41:42The second, 3 million,

00:41:43was used to patch a hole

00:41:44in the Costello Group's

00:41:45failing real estate project.

00:41:46Oh my God,

00:41:47they're stealing

00:41:47from their own charity?

00:41:48That's a federal crime.

00:41:49The Costellos are done.

00:41:53This is...

00:41:54This engagement trap

00:41:55was a desperate move

00:41:56to cover a bankruptcy.

00:41:58Too bad your math was off.

00:42:06Let's go.

00:42:07I'm done with the emotional

00:42:08drain of this room.

00:42:09Let's go!

00:42:10Let's go!

00:42:10Get her!

00:42:11Get her!

00:42:18Seth,

00:42:19Eleanor is auditing

00:42:20the Greenwich accounts

00:42:20right now.

00:42:21She's not taking meetings,

00:42:22especially with anyone

00:42:22whose financial disclosure

00:42:23hasn't been updated.

00:42:24Tell her I'm not here

00:42:25to beg for capital.

00:42:26I'm here for a job.

00:42:28Mr. Castillo,

00:42:29we don't need drivers,

00:42:30and we definitely

00:42:31don't hire interns

00:42:31with baggage.

00:42:33Just tell her I want to learn

00:42:34how to cleanly fix

00:42:35the Castillo group mess.

00:42:37I'll pay for the tuition

00:42:37by the hour.

00:42:41Stay there.

00:42:42Don't bring the outside heat

00:42:43into my climate control.

00:42:45The Costello audit is out.

00:42:47My dad ruined us,

00:42:48but I don't want to watch

00:42:48the firm collapse.

00:42:49I want your logic, Eleanor.

00:42:51I want to stop being ruled

00:42:52by emotion.

00:42:53Fine.

00:42:54But in this house,

00:42:55resources aren't shared for free.

00:42:57Name your price.

00:42:58$10,000 an hour.

00:42:59Less than an hour

00:43:00counts as a full one.

00:43:01No refunds.

00:43:01And if you have

00:43:02an emotional breakdown

00:43:03that slows me down,

00:43:04I'll bill you double

00:43:04for the loss of my time.

00:43:06Deal.

00:43:11Intern Leo,

00:43:11these are the Sterling Court

00:43:12procurement records

00:43:13from the last decade.

00:43:14Find every inflated vendor

00:43:15in base and duplicate

00:43:16reimbursement before 5 p.m.

00:43:17You serious?

00:43:19Manually?

00:43:20Can't we just use

00:43:20an AI audit tool?

00:43:22Eleanor says if you

00:43:22want to be clean,

00:43:23you have to find the truth

00:43:24in the trash first.

00:43:25It's 10 a.m.

00:43:26If the first box

00:43:27isn't done by noon,

00:43:28I'm charging you a facility fee

00:43:29for occupying my floor space.

00:43:30You're exploiting me!

00:43:32I'm maximizing assets.

00:43:34Keep it clean.

00:43:35Get to work.

00:43:44Seth Costell?

00:43:45Did you start a career

00:43:46in waste management?

00:43:49Eleanor,

00:43:50first box is done.

00:43:51Mrs. Henderson was skimming

00:43:52from the Sterling household

00:43:53accounts for years.

00:43:53$300,000 in fake reimbursions.

00:43:57Too slow.

00:43:57You missed three logical errors

00:43:59on page five.

00:44:00Recalculate.

00:44:00I haven't even had water.

00:44:02Tap water is free.

00:44:03If you want the Greenwich blend,

00:44:04it's $1,000 a glass.

00:44:05I'll add it to your invoice.

00:44:07Eleanor,

00:44:07you're making him pay you

00:44:08to work for you?

00:44:10I'm teaching him

00:44:10that data is the only thing

00:44:11that doesn't lie.

00:44:13Intern Leo,

00:44:14you have two hours.

00:44:15If you fail,

00:44:16today's $10,000 tuition

00:44:17was just a very expensive

00:44:18lesson in failure.

00:44:19I'll find it.

00:44:23Since when did he become

00:44:24your biggest fan?

00:44:26He just realized

00:44:27that being clear-headed

00:44:27has more dignity

00:44:28than being a cluteless heir.

00:44:37Seth,

00:44:37your approach

00:44:38was way too aggressive.

00:44:39Eleanor won't admit it,

00:44:40but she has a specific profile.

00:44:42In Greenwich,

00:44:43she lived for these

00:44:43lavender shortbread cookies.

00:44:45Got it.

00:44:46Lavender shortbread.

00:44:47What else?

00:44:47When she's reading,

00:44:48don't talk.

00:44:49Just set a warm

00:44:50lemon tart next to her,

00:44:51exactly two drops

00:44:52of honey in her tea,

00:44:52she'll notice you.

00:44:54Trust me,

00:44:54underneath that ice,

00:44:55she's human.

00:44:56Mom,

00:44:56Eleanor is very protective

00:44:57of her private habits.

00:44:58Is it a really good idea

00:44:58to give Seth the cheat codes?

00:45:00You don't get it.

00:45:00This is strategic intelligence.

00:45:02If I don't help,

00:45:02these two will be auditing

00:45:03each other until they're 80.

00:45:12Eleanor,

00:45:12you're back.

00:45:13Long day?

00:45:13Here,

00:45:14warm lemon tart,

00:45:14just the way you like it.

00:45:18Pull the guest log.

00:45:19How long has Seth been here?

00:45:20Two hours and 40 minutes,

00:45:21Eleanor.

00:45:24Margaret,

00:45:26corporate espionage

00:45:27is a felony in this state.

00:45:28Are you trying to give me

00:45:29a live demonstration

00:45:30with my own privacy?

00:45:34Eleanor,

00:45:35it's not like that.

00:45:36Seth was just being attentive.

00:45:37I thought you two should

00:45:38connect.

00:45:39Connection is built

00:45:40on transparent exchange,

00:45:41not backdoor data leaks.

00:45:44Seth,

00:45:45if you had researched

00:45:45these brands yourself,

00:45:46I'd respect the effort.

00:45:47but using an unclean source

00:45:49to bypass my boundaries,

00:45:50that's a massive breach of trust.

00:45:52Intern Leo,

00:45:52you're off the clock.

00:45:53This behavior violates

00:45:54every professional ethic

00:45:55I've taught you.

00:46:00Margaret,

00:46:00we need to talk.

00:46:01Alone.

00:46:04in my world,

00:46:06every relationship

00:46:07has a credit line.

00:46:08I just want you to have

00:46:09a family,

00:46:09Eleanor.

00:46:11Your version of family

00:46:12is destroying the foundation

00:46:13we just built.

00:46:14You used my private data

00:46:15as leverage

00:46:16to buy Seth's favor.

00:46:17This is called

00:46:18overdrawing your limit.

00:46:19Every time you sell

00:46:20a piece of my privacy,

00:46:21your trust dividend

00:46:21drops 10%.

00:46:22Is it really that clinical?

00:46:24I just said a few words.

00:46:27It's not just words.

00:46:28It's emotional drain.

00:46:29If you want me to keep

00:46:30supporting Sterling Corp,

00:46:31stop playing matchmaker.

00:46:32My preferences

00:46:33are my private assets.

00:46:34I didn't authorize

00:46:35this investment.

00:46:36Don't make me treat

00:46:36my own mother

00:46:37like a security risk.

00:46:38I get it.

00:46:40I'll stop.

00:46:41I promise.

00:46:43Throw everything

00:46:44on that table away.

00:46:44I don't consume

00:46:45compromised assets.

00:46:53Wait,

00:46:53those haven't even

00:46:54been touched.

00:46:54Why?

00:46:55Eleanor calls them

00:46:56products of unclean behavior.

00:46:57Mr. Costell,

00:46:58you should go.

00:46:58She said if you try

00:46:59another backdoor move,

00:47:00your tuition doubles

00:47:01and you're blacklisted.

00:47:05She even audits

00:47:06her own tea time?

00:47:07She's a demon.

00:47:15Derek,

00:47:16Voss just locked down

00:47:16every silicon supplier

00:47:17on the East Coast.

00:47:18Voss Industries

00:47:19is forcing a renegotiation.

00:47:20It's a total supply cut.

00:47:22Eleanor,

00:47:22the Voss family

00:47:23is playing for keeps.

00:47:24Can the Whitmaces

00:47:25in Greenwich

00:47:26pull any strings?

00:47:28Borrowed favors

00:47:29are unclean debts,

00:47:30Harald.

00:47:30If Derek Voss

00:47:31wants to use leverage,

00:47:32let's show him

00:47:33where the real fulcrum is.

00:47:35Derek!

00:47:36My father was good to you.

00:47:38Just release

00:47:38the Sterling Corp order.

00:47:39Seth,

00:47:40you've gone soft.

00:47:41Tell your little

00:47:42Greenwich Iris

00:47:42to crawl back here

00:47:43and beg me in person.

00:47:44Maybe I'll drop

00:47:45a few scraps

00:47:45for you to pick up.

00:47:48Intern Leo,

00:47:49first lesson.

00:47:50Negotiating without leverage

00:47:51isn't business.

00:47:52It's emotional begging.

00:47:53I just wanted to help.

00:47:54I didn't think

00:47:55he'd be this low.

00:47:56Decency is a luxury

00:47:57for the powerful.

00:47:58Carter,

00:47:58is the helicopter ready?

00:47:59Cleared for takeoff

00:48:00in 15 minutes.

00:48:07Dad,

00:48:08someone is trying to starve

00:48:09my company.

00:48:13Nobody cuts off

00:48:13a Whitmore.

00:48:14Let's get the debt

00:48:15penetration files

00:48:16from the safe.

00:48:21Derek Voss

00:48:22thinks he controls

00:48:23the warehouses.

00:48:24He doesn't know

00:48:24that Voss Industries'

00:48:26primary supplier,

00:48:27Meridian Silicon,

00:48:28operates on land

00:48:29owned by the Whitmores.

00:48:31And their production

00:48:31line equipment,

00:48:32those are leased

00:48:33through our family trust.

00:48:36Watch this, Leo.

00:48:37If Meridian defaults

00:48:39on their lease payments,

00:48:40I can trigger

00:48:40a cross default

00:48:41on Voss Industries'

00:48:42entire credit line.

00:48:44Mrs. Whitmacher,

00:48:45ready to beg?

00:48:46I don't waste time

00:48:47on nonsense, Derek.

00:48:51That's impossible.

00:48:52How could you-

00:48:52First, Meridian Silicon

00:48:53just received

00:48:54its default

00:48:54on their equipment lens.

00:48:55Your Q4 inventory

00:48:56is now zero.

00:48:57Second,

00:48:57you just breached

00:48:58the covenant

00:48:58of your primary loan,

00:48:59triggering my hostile

00:49:00takeover rights.

00:49:02You have 60 seconds.

00:49:04E-sign the priority

00:49:05shipping confirmation

00:49:05for Sterling Corp,

00:49:07or I click execute

00:49:08and dissolve your board

00:49:09by morning.

00:49:14See that intern, Leo?

00:49:15That's what

00:49:15Keep It Clean looks like.

00:49:16Let's go.

00:49:17The show in Aurora Bay

00:49:18isn't over yet.

00:49:21Don't blame me, Chloe.

00:49:23Your parents chose

00:49:24that brat over me.

00:49:25They froze my accounts.

00:49:26If I'm going down,

00:49:27I'm taking you with me.

00:49:29The moment Eleanor

00:49:30signs over her 20% stake

00:49:32in Sterling Corp,

00:49:33you go free.

00:49:33She loves being clean.

00:49:35Let's see if she values

00:49:36equity or family more.

00:49:42Sandra has lost it.

00:49:43She kidnapped Chloe.

00:49:44Eleanor, call the police.

00:49:45We don't have time.

00:49:47I tracked them.

00:49:48The guys Sandra hired

00:49:49are mercenaries.

00:49:50No code, just cash.

00:49:52The police are too slow.

00:49:54Statements, procedures,

00:49:55negotiations,

00:49:55the ROI is too low.

00:49:56Then what?

00:49:57You're actually giving

00:49:57her the shares?

00:50:00Did you sign it?

00:50:01One trick,

00:50:02and I'll carve her face.

00:50:03Sandra, that dress

00:50:03is wrinkled.

00:50:04Kidnapping is heavy labor.

00:50:05Clearly not a good fit

00:50:06for a parasite like you.

00:50:07Shut up!

00:50:08I want the money.

00:50:09I want the Sterling Corp shares.

00:50:10You want money?

00:50:11Fine.

00:50:12Leo, cut her oxygen.

00:50:14Locked in.

00:50:15All of Sandra's

00:50:16offshore accounts

00:50:16in the Caymans

00:50:17and her shell properties.

00:50:18I'm initiating

00:50:18a full audit penetration now.

00:50:20Did you really think

00:50:20an offshore trust

00:50:21could hide you from me?

00:50:22Sandra, in this market,

00:50:23I'm your only creditor.

00:50:26Now, check your phone.

00:50:32No!

00:50:33That's impossible.

00:50:34That was my last safety net.

00:50:36That's called

00:50:37precision liquidation.

00:50:38Since you want money

00:50:39so badly,

00:50:40I thought you should know

00:50:41what it feels like

00:50:41to be truly worthless.

00:50:43Boss,

00:50:44the account is empty.

00:50:45Where's our final payment?

00:50:48Mr. Muscle,

00:50:49your client's credit rating

00:50:50just hit junk.

00:50:51Why wait for a worthless contract

00:50:53when you can hear my offer?

00:50:54Secure Chloe

00:50:55and bring her home.

00:50:56I'll pay you triple

00:50:57the market rate in crypto,

00:50:58and my legal team

00:50:59will provide

00:50:59a full liability release.

00:51:01Working with a bankrupt client

00:51:02is a drain on your resources,

00:51:04isn't it?

00:51:07Eleanor!

00:51:07You have no heart!

00:51:09You're a monster!

00:51:10I don't need a heart.

00:51:12I have the ledger.

00:51:16That's it?

00:51:17It's over?

00:51:18What else did you expect?

00:51:19A crying match?

00:51:20That's not how I do business.

00:51:32Eleanor,

00:51:33thank you.

00:51:34Don't thank me.

00:51:35Saving you was a move

00:51:36to protect Sterling Corp's

00:51:37stock price.

00:51:38Your life is currently

00:51:39an asset on my balance count.

00:51:41Margaret,

00:51:42tell the lawyers

00:51:43to meet Sandra

00:51:44at the precinct.

00:51:44If she wants to play

00:51:45with the bottom line,

00:51:46let her learn what it means

00:51:47from behind bars.

00:51:48I'm going back.

00:51:49This drama was exhausting.

00:51:51Tomorrow morning,

00:51:52I want lobster rolls.

00:51:53Put it on the family account.

00:51:58Chloe,

00:51:58listen to me.

00:51:59Eleanor will throw you out

00:52:00like trash eventually.

00:52:02Help me get those

00:52:02share transfer documents.

00:52:04Once I'm back on top,

00:52:05you'll be the Sterling heiress again.

00:52:06I'll take you to Europe.

00:52:08We don't have to stay here

00:52:09and take this.

00:52:10But,

00:52:11Eleanor saved me today.

00:52:13It was an act!

00:52:14She's buying loyalty!

00:52:15She wants the whole

00:52:16Sterling fortune for herself.

00:52:17Help me,

00:52:18or we both rot!

00:52:23Eleanor,

00:52:24Chloe has been on the phone

00:52:25with Sandra all morning.

00:52:26Sandra is pushing her

00:52:27to steal your files.

00:52:29She wants my files?

00:52:30Then she's going to have

00:52:31to settle her own tab first.

00:52:33Everything is verified,

00:52:34Eleanor.

00:52:34Every cent is backed

00:52:35by a bank record.

00:52:41Eleanor,

00:52:42I wasn't going to do it.

00:52:44I just didn't know

00:52:44how to say no.

00:52:45Stop the tears.

00:52:46In this house,

00:52:47crying is a waste of time.

00:52:48It doesn't balance the books.

00:52:51Since you can't keep

00:52:52your life clean,

00:52:52I did the audit for you.

00:52:54I'm not talking

00:52:55about your childhood.

00:52:56The Sterlings gave you that life.

00:52:57But let's talk about

00:52:58the last two years.

00:52:591.5 million

00:53:00in unauthorized trust drawdowns,

00:53:02$600,000

00:53:03in business expenses

00:53:04that actually went

00:53:04to Sandra's shell companies.

00:53:06But

00:53:07mom and dad

00:53:08never said anything.

00:53:11It's because they thought

00:53:12you were a sterling.

00:53:13Legally,

00:53:13that's unjust enrauchment.

00:53:16You have over

00:53:172 million in liabilities.

00:53:18The moment you touch

00:53:19my files,

00:53:20this audit,

00:53:20it becomes a federal lawsuit.

00:53:222 million?

00:53:22I don't have

00:53:23that kind of money!

00:53:24Sandra has offshore accounts.

00:53:25I've frozen them,

00:53:26but I need the encryption keys.

00:53:28I want you to cut your losses.

00:53:30Hand over the keys.

00:53:32In exchange,

00:53:33I wipe this $2 million debt

00:53:34and keep your name

00:53:35out of the police report.

00:53:36Or,

00:53:37I call the DA

00:53:38in five minutes.

00:53:392 million in fraud

00:53:39is enough to put you

00:53:40in a cell for a decade.

00:53:41No designer bags,

00:53:42no five-star hotels,

00:53:43just a gray jumpsuit.

00:53:47Sandra never cared about me.

00:53:49I was just her piggy bank.

00:53:51The key is my birthday.

00:53:53It's the only thing

00:53:54she bothered to remember

00:53:55because it opened the vaults.

00:54:00She actually flipped?

00:54:01Sandra raised her.

00:54:02Nathan,

00:54:03you're still thinking

00:54:03with your heart.

00:54:04In the face of a $2 million debt,

00:54:06family loyalty

00:54:07isn't even as thick

00:54:08as a sheet of A4 paper.

00:54:09Sandra's cash flow is dead.

00:54:11She can't even afford

00:54:11a public defender now.

00:54:16Seth,

00:54:17Sandra is settled.

00:54:18Voss is next.

00:54:19Meet me at the site at dawn.

00:54:20Let's finish the audit it.

00:54:25Eleanor,

00:54:26the foundation is set,

00:54:27but the foremans

00:54:28from Voss Industries

00:54:28are stalling.

00:54:29They're demanding

00:54:30consulting fees,

00:54:31basically kickbacks

00:54:32we refuse to pay.

00:54:33The only thing we pay

00:54:34is what's in the contract.

00:54:35Kickbacks are unclean.

00:54:36If they don't like the terms,

00:54:37they can find another site.

00:54:39Eleanor Whitmer,

00:54:40you're cutting off

00:54:40our livelihood.

00:54:41If we don't eat,

00:54:42this project dies today.

00:54:46Look out!

00:54:55You're lucky it hit the muscle

00:54:56and not your spine.

00:54:57Keep this ice pack on it

00:54:58for 20 minutes.

00:54:59I'm recommending an x-ray

00:55:00just to be safe.

00:55:01I'm fine.

00:55:02Eleanor,

00:55:03you're not hurt, right?

00:55:06$10 million personal

00:55:07accident policy.

00:55:08I added you as an additional

00:55:09insured last Friday.

00:55:11You insured me?

00:55:13Clean logic.

00:55:14If you're going to risk

00:55:15your life for me,

00:55:15the least I can do

00:55:16is insure the hospital

00:55:17bills don't create

00:55:17a deficit

00:55:18in my personal accounts.

00:55:24Mr. Foreman,

00:55:25trespassing,

00:55:26attempted assault,

00:55:27and now

00:55:27workplace safety violations.

00:55:29My legal team

00:55:30is already filing.

00:55:31You can't do this!

00:55:32I have a contract!

00:55:34A contract you bleached

00:55:35the moment you picked up

00:55:35that crowbar.

00:55:36You're terminated.

00:55:38Keep it clean.

00:55:43So,

00:55:44did I earn

00:55:45any points today?

00:55:45saving the boss

00:55:47has to count for something.

00:55:48You overextended

00:55:49your risk profile,

00:55:50but the execution

00:55:51was acceptable.

00:55:52Consider your internship

00:55:53probation shortened

00:55:54by a week.

00:55:55But don't let it go

00:55:56to your head.

00:55:57I don't bode us employees

00:55:57for becoming martyrs.

00:55:59One week?

00:55:59I'll take it.

00:56:00At this rate,

00:56:01I'll be your partner

00:56:01by next quarter.

00:56:03Next quarter

00:56:03is a long time

00:56:04in this market, Seth.

00:56:05Don't go into the red

00:56:06before then.

00:56:16Mr. Whitmer,

00:56:17Mrs. Whitmer,

00:56:18welcome to Aurora Bay.

00:56:19I didn't know

00:56:19you were coming.

00:56:20Eleanor is in the study

00:56:20auditing the Sterling Corp

00:56:21Q3 financials.

00:56:22If we called ahead,

00:56:23it wouldn't be a spot check.

00:56:24Ellen would have hidden

00:56:25the messy ledgers

00:56:26and only shown us

00:56:26the pretty ones.

00:56:31The landscaping here

00:56:32is aggressive,

00:56:33but at least

00:56:34the hydrangeas are clean.

00:56:35Butler, bring in

00:56:36the lavender shortbread

00:56:37and the scones

00:56:37we brought from Greenwich.

00:56:39Mr. and Mrs. Wiltmore,

00:56:41what a surprise.

00:56:42We were just about

00:56:43to book a private room

00:56:43at the Yacht Club

00:56:44for a full tasting menu,

00:56:45Australian lobster,

00:56:46the works.

00:56:47You're very kind, Margaret,

00:56:48but lobster is far

00:56:48too much theater.

00:56:49We Greenwich people

00:56:50prefer our meals

00:56:50like our business,

00:56:51clean and uncomplicated.

00:56:53We're here

00:56:53for a quality inspection.

00:56:54I want to see

00:56:55if Eleanor's

00:56:56professional standards

00:56:56have slipped

00:56:57since moving into

00:56:57this colorful neighborhood.

00:57:02Dad, Mom,

00:57:04you don't trust my books?

00:57:05I run a full audit

00:57:06every 48 hours.

00:57:08Mr. Whitford,

00:57:09Mrs. Whitford,

00:57:10I'm Seth Costello,

00:57:11Eleanor's strategic intern.

00:57:12Jonathan,

00:57:13this boy is incredible.

00:57:14The heir to Costello group,

00:57:15yet he's working

00:57:16as an assistant

00:57:16just to be near Eleanor.

00:57:18The Costello heir,

00:57:19the family currently

00:57:20under federal investigation

00:57:21for embezzlement?

00:57:22That was my father's liability.

00:57:23I've cooperated with Eleanor

00:57:24to liquidate those debts.

00:57:25I'm currently restructuring

00:57:26our entire asset portfolio

00:57:27to ensure total transparency.

00:57:28In the Whitmore family,

00:57:29we don't look at pedigree.

00:57:30We don't look at

00:57:31heroic rescues.

00:57:32Those are variables.

00:57:34I only have one question.

00:57:36Can you manage

00:57:37a balance sheet?

00:57:40Intern Leo,

00:57:41this is your final exam.

00:57:42Don't blow it.

00:57:42I'm ready.

00:57:47Sir,

00:57:47this is the projected

00:57:48asset liability statement

00:57:49for the post-restructure

00:57:49Costello group.

00:57:50As of 3 p.m.,

00:57:51current liquidity

00:57:51stands at 32 million

00:57:52with a debt-to-equity ratio

00:57:53compressed to 34%.

00:57:54Assuming a 10%

00:57:55annualized return

00:57:56after deducting

00:57:57Eleanor's patent royalties

00:57:58and Sterling Corp's

00:57:59equity dividends,

00:57:59the net cash flow

00:58:00I generate monthly

00:58:01is 3x the premium

00:58:02required to cover

00:58:03all of Eleanor's

00:58:03property taxes

00:58:04and maintenance

00:58:04in both Greenwich

00:58:05and Aurora Bay.

00:58:07That's my personal audit report.

00:58:08My value isn't in my name,

00:58:10it's in my yield.

00:58:16The logic is clean.

00:58:19He understands core assets.

00:58:20That's more than I can say

00:58:21for some people in this room.

00:58:24Catherine,

00:58:24we also care about Eleanor's...

00:58:26Margaret,

00:58:26care is an emotion.

00:58:27What I need is autonomy.

00:58:29Intern Leo,

00:58:30decent work,

00:58:31but you failed to calculate

00:58:32the depreciation of your own health

00:58:33from that heart rate spike.

00:58:34I'll write that off

00:58:34as a necessary marketing expense

00:58:36if you give me a shot

00:58:37at a permanent position.

00:58:39Fine.

00:58:40Let's eat.

00:58:41You have 30 days

00:58:42to finish cleaning up

00:58:43your father's mess.

00:58:44If there's a single

00:58:45unclean scent

00:58:46left in the Costello books

00:58:47by then,

00:58:48permanent.

00:58:50Understood, sir.

00:58:58Chairman,

00:58:59the SUV is at the back exit.

00:59:00The flight plan

00:59:01is filed at the FBO.

00:59:02The SEC just issued a subpoena

00:59:03and the FBI is likely

00:59:04to freeze everything

00:59:05by 8 a.m.

00:59:05If we don't move now,

00:59:06you're never getting

00:59:07out of this country.

00:59:09That Eleanor Whitmere,

00:59:10she's a demon.

00:59:11She squeezed my supply chain

00:59:13until I choked.

00:59:13I'm the king of Aurora Bay

00:59:15and she treats me

00:59:16like a common thief.

00:59:19Dad,

00:59:20you're running?

00:59:22Seth,

00:59:23perfect timing.

00:59:24Grab that case.

00:59:24We're going to the Caymans,

00:59:25somewhere the feds

00:59:26can't touch us.

00:59:27You embezzled

00:59:28the Costello Foundation funds,

00:59:29you cooked the books

00:59:30for five years

00:59:31and your plan

00:59:32is to just hop

00:59:32on a Gulf Dane

00:59:33and disappear?

00:59:34Don't judge me!

00:59:36Every CEO in this town

00:59:37has a gray area.

00:59:38If it weren't for

00:59:39that Whitmore girl

00:59:40auditing my life

00:59:40like a vulture,

00:59:41we'd still be elite.

00:59:42Now move!

00:59:43Out of my way!

00:59:45Are you brainwashed?

00:59:46She is our enemy!

00:59:48She's not the enemy, Dad.

00:59:49She's the only one

00:59:50who told me the truth

00:59:51about the business

00:59:52and about you.

00:59:53You're a Castillo.

00:59:54If you sign

00:59:55that whistleblower letter,

00:59:56you're sending me

00:59:57to a federal pen for life.

00:59:58You'll destroy

00:59:59this family's name

01:00:00forever!

01:00:01You talk about family,

01:00:02but you were ready

01:00:02to let me take

01:00:03the fraud charge

01:00:03last month.

01:00:04When you asked me

01:00:05to sign those forged documents,

01:00:06you already liquidated

01:00:07our bond.

01:00:08Ilana was right.

01:00:09Unclean debts

01:00:10can't stay on the book.

01:00:13I'm closing your account, Dad.

01:00:15For the sake

01:00:15of the Costello legacy.

01:00:23Intern Leo,

01:00:24enough with the

01:00:24Tragic Hero Act.

01:00:25Rain is free,

01:00:26but the lost work hours

01:00:27and the medical cost

01:00:28of you catching Anomia

01:00:29will be deducted

01:00:29from your Q4 bonus.

01:00:30Eleanor,

01:00:31signing that letter,

01:00:32it felt like I finally

01:00:33washed off the dirt.

01:00:34It's called

01:00:35personal restructuring.

01:00:36Your assets are zero,

01:00:37but your credit score

01:00:38just started to recover.

01:00:40I'll clean up

01:00:41the rest of the mess.

01:00:41Every cent.

01:00:42Good.

01:00:43Keep it clean.

01:00:44We audit the remaining

01:00:44liabilities at 9 a.m. tomorrow.

01:00:46Don't be late.

01:00:57Eleanor,

01:00:57the rumors are

01:00:58trashing our board optics.

01:00:59They're calling you

01:00:59the dead-end high-risk.

01:01:00Margaret is next door crying

01:01:01because she thinks

01:01:02the Sterling line

01:01:02ends with you.

01:01:03Nathan,

01:01:03go help Chloe

01:01:04audit the logistics flacked.

01:01:05Your concern is creating

01:01:06a low-frequency noise

01:01:07in my study.

01:01:07I'm serious.

01:01:08Seth is at the office

01:01:0918 hours a day

01:01:10with no title

01:01:10and no contract.

01:01:11What are you doing with him?

01:01:13In the Whitmore logic,

01:01:14marriage is a high-risk,

01:01:15low-vealed

01:01:15asset restructuring.

01:01:17Most people marry

01:01:17to hedge risks.

01:01:18My portfolio

01:01:19is already self-sustaining.

01:01:20Why would I introduce

01:01:21a volatile partner

01:01:22to dilute my voting bills?

01:01:26Speak of the devil.

01:01:27Costello,

01:01:27tell her how pathetic

01:01:28this no marriage thing is.

01:01:29Eleanor,

01:01:30I read the tablets.

01:01:31And?

01:01:31Did you come to persuade me

01:01:32to re-enter the market?

01:01:33No.

01:01:34I came to propose

01:01:35a direct strategic merger.

01:01:37I'm not proposing marriage.

01:01:38That's a two-page contract

01:01:39with zero default clauses.

01:01:41It's too messy.

01:01:43Lifetime employment?

01:01:44Seth, you've lost your mind.

01:01:45This is basically

01:01:46indented servitude.

01:01:47Eleanor, I'm applying

01:01:48for a permanent position.

01:01:50Personal asset advisor

01:01:51and risk mitigation officer.

01:01:53Compensation.

01:01:54All my personal income,

01:01:55future inheritance,

01:01:56and property

01:01:56will be merged

01:01:57into your holdings.

01:01:58I take zero equity.

01:01:59I only take

01:02:00subordinate execution rights.

01:02:01You want to bypass family law

01:02:02and do a full entity consolidation?

01:02:04A marriage ends

01:02:05in a messy divorce.

01:02:06A partnership has exit terms.

01:02:07In this agreement,

01:02:08you can fire me at any time.

01:02:10If I betray you

01:02:10or drag down your life quality,

01:02:12I walk away with nothing

01:02:13and pay liquidation damages

01:02:14for every second

01:02:15of your time I wasted.

01:02:16I don't want to be

01:02:17your husband, Eleanor.

01:02:18I want to be

01:02:19your most loyal asset.

01:02:20In your world,

01:02:21isn't that cleaner?

01:02:22It's logically sound,

01:02:24but you missed one covenant.

01:02:25Name it.

01:02:27Sign this non-compete agreement first.

01:02:29A non-compete?

01:02:30If you take the job,

01:02:31your entire supply

01:02:32of affection and companionship

01:02:33is exclusive to me.

01:02:34Any romantic interaction

01:02:36with a third party

01:02:36is a material breach.

01:02:38Penalty,

01:02:38200% of the remaining

01:02:39Costello estate.

01:02:40Do you sign?

01:02:43Deal.

01:02:44Boss Wetmore,

01:02:45I look forward to the audit.

01:02:47Nathan, tell Margaret

01:02:48I'm still not marrying,

01:02:49but I just acquired

01:02:49a very high-performing

01:02:50long-term asset.

01:02:53Let's go, Seth.

01:02:54Finish the boss

01:02:55liquidation report by midnight.

01:02:56I don't pay bonuses

01:02:56for sentiment.

01:02:59Are they even human?

01:03:00They're demons.

01:03:01Debt-collecting demons.
