00:00:00How dare you invade my home?
00:00:20It's my mother's home!
00:00:21She's dead.
00:00:22Your father signed the deed over to me and my daughter, Caitlin.
00:00:23So get the hell out!
00:00:24You need to get the hell out, Rubina!
00:00:25The house is on fire!
00:00:27You expect me to believe a stupid line like that?
00:00:28The house is on fire!
00:00:29Oh my God!
00:00:30The house is on fire!
00:00:31Caitlin!
00:00:32Caitlin!
00:00:33My mother's dress.
00:00:34I have to get it.
00:00:35Caitlin!
00:00:36Caitlin!
00:00:37Caitlin!
00:00:38Caitlin!

00:01:05I'm sorry.
00:01:06I'm sorry.
00:01:07I'm sorry.
00:01:08Excuse me?
00:01:09This is my room.
00:01:16Hey.
00:01:18What's up?
00:01:19Steel?
00:01:20You're fucking my sister?
00:01:22Step-sister, this is your fault.
00:01:25Poor Margaret.
00:01:26While you were busy dreaming about your wedding, I was here satisfying your fiancé.
00:01:32I just made him cum three times on your bed.
00:01:35You are nothing but a social-climbing, home-wrecking whore, just like your mom.
00:01:56Babe, are you okay?
00:01:57Uh-huh.
00:01:58Yeah.
00:01:59Margaret, you stupid fucking bitch.
00:02:02Let me be clear.
00:02:04You get married, you get your mom's business.
00:02:06Why else do you think I proposed to you?
00:02:08Oh, my God.
00:02:09You were just using me to get to my mom's company?
00:02:12You lying scumbag.
00:02:14The wedding's off.
00:02:16I hope you burn in this fire.
00:02:18Fire?
00:02:19What fire?
00:02:20Fire.
00:02:21Fire.
00:02:22Fuck.
00:02:23Fuck.
00:02:24Fuck.
00:02:25I need to get out.
00:02:26We need to get out.
00:02:27I can't.
00:02:28Get out.
00:02:29I can't.
00:02:34I can't.
00:02:42This is my wedding dress, honey.
00:02:44Promise me that you'll wear it when you get married.
00:02:48That way, I know no matter what happens, I'll be there with you on your wedding day.
00:02:55Heart to heart.
00:02:56I promise, Mommy.
00:03:04I might not get to wear this wedding dress.
00:03:07This is my fiancee, the cheating asshole.
00:03:12Oh, my God.
00:03:13I gotta get out of here.
00:03:26Boss, there's private helicopters on the way.
00:03:28They'll airlift you out.
00:03:30You take the airlift.
00:03:31I'm gonna go check on the neighbors.
00:03:32What? No.
00:03:33Come on.
00:03:34L.A.'s an inferno.
00:03:35Everyone's in danger.
00:03:36I know.
00:03:37That's why I've gotta stay.
00:03:38Goddamn wildfires.
00:03:40Boss!
00:04:03Boss!
00:04:17Is that bitch still in there?
00:04:20Whatever.
00:04:21Oh, no.
00:04:22Oh, no.
00:04:23Wait.
00:04:24Someone has to help us.
00:04:26I can't lose my custom-built home.
00:04:29Help.
00:04:30Help.
00:04:31Help.
00:04:34Guys, you've gotta evacuate.
00:04:35Get out of here.
00:04:36Evacuate?
00:04:37The minimal appraisal value is ten million.
00:04:42I'm just tired now.
00:04:44Okay, figure it out.
00:04:46Is someone still in there?
00:04:47Not just my stupid sister.
00:04:48Who cares about her?
00:04:50What's her name?
00:04:52Uh, Margaret.
00:04:53But you can just call her Loser.
00:04:55Wait if you're going inside.
00:04:56I have ten Hermes bags.
00:04:59Birkin.
00:05:00Okay.
00:05:01You have to take them, please.
00:05:02Okay.
00:05:03Wait.
00:05:04They're in my closet.
00:05:06I think he might do it.
00:05:09Margaret!
00:05:12Margaret, where are you?
00:05:15Can you hear me?
00:05:19Oh, no.
00:05:23Oh, no.
00:05:33Margaret, can you hear me?
00:05:36You're gonna be okay.
00:05:37Alright?
00:05:38Thanks.
00:05:43Congrats on your wedding.
00:05:46I belong to my mom.
00:05:48That's great.
00:05:51Hey.
00:05:52Hey, hey, hey.
00:05:53Hold on to me, okay?
00:05:54Okay.
00:05:55Okay.
00:05:56Okay.
00:05:57Okay.
00:05:58Okay.
00:05:59Okay.
00:06:00Okay.
00:06:01Hold on to me, okay?
00:06:04Let's get out of here.
00:06:26Where are my designer pants?
00:06:28You guys need to take her to the hospital right now.
00:06:30You saved her?
00:06:31Why?
00:06:32She doesn't even live in the zip code.
00:06:34If you all don't take her to safety, you'll all be charged with attempted murder.
00:06:37Uh, don't talk to me like that.
00:06:39You cringy firefighter.
00:06:41Take her to the hospital now.
00:06:43You're ridiculous.
00:06:44Fine.
00:06:45You take her.
00:06:49Stop touching her.
00:06:50Then how am I supposed to carry her?
00:06:53I don't know.
00:07:00I don't know.
00:07:09Cancel the engagement.
00:07:10Are you out of your mind?
00:07:14Are you out of your mind?
00:07:15I almost die in a fire and that's all you have to say to me?
00:07:18His mother is mayor of this whole city.
00:07:20She can open doors with a wave of her hand.
00:07:22I don't care if she can fart rainbows with a wave of her butt.
00:07:26Oh, and did they tell you that he's been fucking Caitlyn?
00:07:30Watch your mouth.
00:07:32Tell her to watch what she sticks between her legs.
00:07:35Don't you dare talk to me like that.
00:07:37I should have let you die in that house so you can burn in hell.
00:07:41You tried to leave me there, remember?
00:07:43You think I don't know that?
00:07:44Cut the crap.
00:07:45You're gonna marry Steele and you're gonna make him happy.
00:07:49No.
00:07:50I'm not a tramp who sells my body to men for money.
00:07:53That's more Caitlyn style.
00:07:59You know what?
00:08:00Dad, you can climb into bed with the Wicked Witch of the West every night.
00:08:05That's your business.
00:08:06But I will not sleep with some slimy ass bottom feeder to make you happy.
00:08:11Well, then you can kiss your inheritance goodbye.
00:08:14I guess I'll be taking over your mother's company.
00:08:16She left it to me.
00:08:18Only if you're married by next week.
00:08:20And what are you going to do if Steele dumps you?
00:08:23Just look at you.
00:08:25You can't even get out of bed.
00:08:30Oh, gosh, Raveena.
00:08:33It looks like I can get out of bed after all.
00:08:37And you can't stop me.
00:08:41Are you high?
00:08:42Where the hell do you think you're going?
00:08:44To find a husband.
00:08:48To find a husband.
00:08:51And I know just where to find him.
00:08:55Stop right now, young lady.
00:08:57Stop her.
00:09:04A $50 million donation?
00:09:06This is a godsend.
00:09:08Look, man, you guys are the real heroes.
00:09:11I was just happy I could help.
00:09:13Well, I appreciate it.
00:09:15I actually got you a gift.
00:09:18Come on, man, you didn't have to do that.
00:09:25But, Chieftain, this is perfect.
00:09:28Thank you. Sincerely.
00:09:31Who did it to me?
00:09:33Where is he?
00:09:34Who did what to you?
00:09:36Saved my life yesterday.
00:09:41No.
00:09:42No.
00:09:43Not you either.
00:09:44No.
00:09:45No.
00:09:46No.
00:09:47No.
00:09:48No.
00:09:49No.
00:09:50No.
00:09:51No.
00:09:52No.
00:09:53No.
00:09:54No.
00:09:55No.
00:09:56No.
00:09:57No.
00:09:58No.
00:09:59No.
00:10:00Not you either.
00:10:01No.
00:10:02You're not the one.
00:10:03It's not here.
00:10:09What about that guy?
00:10:14Excuse me for a second, sir.
00:10:20It's you.
00:10:22I'm sorry, miss?
00:10:24You're the guy.
00:10:26I think you might have me wrong.
00:10:30Oh.
00:10:34Whoa.
00:10:35Slow down.
00:10:37It's me.
00:10:39Margaret.
00:10:41I know I'm silly.
00:10:42I shouldn't have come here.
00:10:43I just...
00:10:44I have nowhere else to go.
00:10:46No one to trust.
00:10:48I lost everything that I had.
00:10:51Hey.
00:10:52It's okay.
00:10:53You're safe now.
00:10:56You say you were...
00:11:00You say you were...
00:11:21Margaret.
00:11:23I knew you'd remember me.
00:11:24I'm sorry I didn't recognize you.
00:11:29I'm sorry.
00:11:36Man.
00:11:39Oh my god.
00:11:40I don't know what he's going to do after that.
00:11:45Okay.
00:11:46I have two requests.
00:11:47Okay.
00:11:48First, in the future when we do that,
00:11:51your hugs don't have to be so delicate.
00:11:53I'm not breakable.
00:11:54Agreed?
00:11:55Yeah.
00:11:56Sure.
00:11:57And my second request is...
00:11:59Marry me.
00:12:01What?
00:12:02I'll explain all the details later,
00:12:03but we gotta go right now.
00:12:06Hey, if he doesn't want to, I'm available.
00:12:08Yeah, me too.
00:12:09I'm here all day.
00:12:10When it comes to hot women,
00:12:11nobody handles them like firemen.
00:12:13We're specialists.
00:12:14Whoa.
00:12:15Easy.
00:12:16Down, down, boys.
00:12:18Did any of the three of you hear me say no?
00:12:21Let's go.
00:12:22Why couldn't that happen to me?
00:12:24We'll have a big ceremony later.
00:12:26For now, this makes it official.
00:12:29By the way,
00:12:30how do you feel about kids?
00:12:32I feel great about kids.
00:12:36When I was a little girl,
00:12:37my mom always told me
00:12:38to always wear nice pajamas to bed.
00:12:40You know why?
00:12:41Why?
00:12:43In case of an emergency,
00:12:44if a fireman came in,
00:12:46she said,
00:12:47you never know.
00:12:48You might become your husband.
00:12:50I'm Margaret, then.
00:12:51Margaret.
00:12:52I'm sorry I haven't had the chance
00:12:53to tell you this yet,
00:12:54but I'm not actually a firefighter.
00:12:56I just happened to be there
00:12:57and was able to help that day.
00:13:02But you saved my life
00:13:05and my mother's trust,
00:13:07and that meant a lot to me.
00:13:10You're my hero.
00:13:12I should tell her who I am.
00:13:14Margaret, I love...
00:13:22I love you.
00:13:32Okay.
00:13:33I can tell her later.
00:13:37You know,
00:13:38we can't just kiss every single time
00:13:40we look into each other's eyes.
00:13:42You're right.
00:13:43You're right.
00:13:45No, no you're not.
00:13:53Oh.
00:13:54Oh.
00:13:55Right.
00:14:01Come on.
00:14:05Well, my husband,
00:14:06shall we go to your place or mine?
00:14:08I'm...
00:14:10I'm actually homeless.
00:14:12My house burned down in the fires.
00:14:15I'm so sorry.
00:14:17Well, you're my husband now,
00:14:19so you can just move in with me.
00:14:21I'll help you move.
00:14:22I can't let her know I'm staying in the W Hotel.
00:14:25It's too fancy.
00:14:29That's so kind and sweet of you,
00:14:31but I wouldn't want you to get your hands dirty.
00:14:33I'll handle the moving.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:37Well,
00:14:39this
00:14:41is my address.
00:14:43See you soon, husband.
00:14:52Dad, you can't make me sleep on the floor
00:14:55while you sleep with my mother
00:14:57on the Eiderdown Savoir Grand Emperor bed.
00:15:01That's not fair.
00:15:02No.
00:15:03Book me a suite right now.
00:15:06Are you delusional?
00:15:08Every decent hotel runs out of rooms.
00:15:12Oh, how about you
00:15:13go get yourself a room at the Motel 6?
00:15:16What? No!
00:15:18Honey,
00:15:19can I stay at your place?
00:15:21Look, either we solve this with Margaret,
00:15:24or we're gonna leave.
00:15:25No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:27We'll fix it.
00:15:28She will marry you.
00:15:29Excuse her.
00:15:30She's still a little out of sorts
00:15:32after the whole city-burning-down thing.
00:15:35Well, she's gonna have to come crawling back to me
00:15:37on her knees.
00:15:38Too bad you couldn't choose Caitlin instead.
00:15:41No, Ravine, this is a business transaction.
00:15:44Steele marries Margaret,
00:15:46then becomes CEO of Foster Incorporated,
00:15:50my ex-wife's business.
00:15:52That's the perfect arrangement
00:15:53because Margaret supplies Steele with the money,
00:15:56and Caitlin supplies him with other benefits.
00:16:01They're like a tag team.
00:16:03A tag team?
00:16:11Let's get this clear once and for all.
00:16:14None of you are ever getting your hands
00:16:16on my mother's money, ever.
00:16:18Not you, not my sleazy, ask-for-sale stepsister,
00:16:22not this cheating man-whore,
00:16:24and not whoever the hell you are.
00:16:34For your information,
00:16:36I'm the mayor of this city,
00:16:38and you just called my son a man-whore.
00:16:43You will apologize.
00:16:46Now, on your knees,
00:16:49or I will crush you.
00:16:53No, I don't get on my knees.
00:16:56That's Caitlin's specialty.
00:16:58But I am so sorry that I called your son a man-whore.
00:17:02I should have called him a wannabe man-whore
00:17:05because he only has one pitiful pickup line.
00:17:08My mother's the mayor.
00:17:10A mayor who let the reservoirs get so dry
00:17:13that the whole city could burn.
00:17:15You want me to apologize?
00:17:17You should be apologizing to the people of this city.
00:17:20One more word.
00:17:22Sit down and shut up.
00:17:25You will be a humble, obedient, respectful wife.
00:17:30You will never inherit that company.
00:17:33I'm afraid I can't marry Steele.
00:17:36Don't you know that polygamy is illegal in California?
00:17:39A woman can't have two husbands.
00:17:41What are you talking about?
00:17:44Well, you see, I'm already married.
00:17:52My paper beats your paper.
00:17:54What did you do? Grab some homeless guy to marry?
00:18:01Everyone knows you were engaged to the mayor's son.
00:18:05How dare you embarrass the mayor publicly?
00:18:09You are a liability to this company, and you'll be replaced as a CEO by me.
00:18:13I am the new CEO.
00:18:15That is not gonna happen.
00:18:22I'll catch up with you guys in a little bit.
00:18:24I have to go clear out my room.
00:18:26Boss, you married a girl you don't even know?
00:18:30What were you thinking?
00:18:35Whitman, sometimes in life you crunch the numbers
00:18:39and read the market and leverage your assets.
00:18:43And then there's other times you just listen to your heart.
00:18:47This is one of those times.
00:18:52There's my wife right now.
00:18:58Harvard, you're done.
00:19:01Who's that creep that's threatening her?
00:19:03That's Jackson Foster, your father-in-law.
00:19:06I did some research. Step ahead of you, boss.
00:19:09Well, I'm gonna put an end to this.
00:19:13Anyone can make a fake marriage license.
00:19:16Just admit you don't have a husband.
00:19:18Excuse me. Who the hell are you?
00:19:22I'm Margaret's husband.
00:19:24My dad.
00:19:26Is this some kind of joke?
00:19:28You get the joke?
00:19:29Of course it's you.
00:19:31You found some random fireman to marry.
00:19:34Oh, my God.
00:19:36How pathetic.
00:19:38How much does he make a year?
00:19:40Like $30,000 after taxes?
00:19:43You really lowered your sophomores.
00:19:46A fireman?
00:19:49What's wrong with being a fireman?
00:19:53Poor.
00:19:55Stinky.
00:19:57These men save your lives
00:19:59while these bitches point your noses down at them?
00:20:01They're saving this city
00:20:03because she was too inept to do it.
00:20:05Keep it up,
00:20:07and I'll wipe that ugly look off of your face permanently.
00:20:11You know who I am.
00:20:14Move your fat asses,
00:20:16go out there and do your goddamn jobs,
00:20:19and stop interrupting us!
00:20:22I'm sorry?
00:20:24We all know who you are,
00:20:26Miss Do-Nothing Mayor.
00:20:28Why are you here sitting in a hotel lobby blabbing
00:20:31while the whole city is burning down?
00:20:33Who are you to challenge me?
00:20:36I can fire all of you.
00:20:40Hey, guys.
00:20:41We're being fired.
00:20:43Oh, wait a minute.
00:20:44You're not our chief, so you can't fire us.
00:20:47That's it. We're done talking to you idiots.
00:20:49As for you, you're gonna dump this pathetic loser,
00:20:52and you're coming home with me.
00:20:55Touch her again, and I will drop you where you stand.
00:20:59You and what army?
00:21:01This army.
00:21:02You owe us an apology.
00:21:04All of you.
00:21:06Apologize.
00:21:08Now.
00:21:09Oh, poor firemen.
00:21:12I'm so sorry.
00:21:15Sorry about to get your asses kicked out of here.
00:21:18Security!
00:21:21Good move, Madam Mayor.
00:21:24And when this whole city burns down,
00:21:26how are you gonna explain to your people
00:21:28that you fired the firefighters that were trying to protect it?
00:21:31This is breaking news.
00:21:32It seems the mayor is firing a team of firefighters.
00:21:35Madam Mayor, do you have a comment?
00:21:38I would never do that.
00:21:40L.A. firefighters are our true heroes.
00:21:44I'm here to support them.
00:21:46That is very lovely.
00:21:48That is very lovely.
00:21:49By the way, why are you here in a luxury hotel
00:21:52when the entire city is on fire?
00:21:55She was cutting a deal for a corporate takeover
00:21:57with a rich-ass CEO.
00:21:59Rich-ass CEO?
00:22:02Madam Mayor, is that true?
00:22:04And do you have a comment?
00:22:06As I said, I am here to support these brave men.
00:22:12Go, firefighters!
00:22:15You know, many people are criticizing
00:22:17your complete and utter incompetence
00:22:19in the handling of the wildfires.
00:22:21In fact, people are pointing out
00:22:23the fact that you cut $17.5 million
00:22:26from the fire department's budget
00:22:28right as the wildfires were starting.
00:22:30What is your response?
00:22:37I have no comment.
00:22:41No comment.
00:22:45You know, not all rich CEOs are assholes.
00:22:49Believe me, they're all aggressive narcissists.
00:22:52I've seen way too many of them.
00:22:54That's why I just want a regular guy like you.
00:22:56Okay, I don't think she's going to like me
00:22:58if I tell her who I am.
00:23:00Hey, so how much did she pay you
00:23:03to be her fake husband?
00:23:05Well, like $100 a day.
00:23:07Boy, you've really gotten desperate, huh?
00:23:10Hiring some nobody to pretend to be your husband
00:23:13just to cheat us,
00:23:15just so you could comply to the will
00:23:17and take over the company.
00:23:19That's very clever.
00:23:21How many times do I have to tell you
00:23:23that this is my mother's company,
00:23:25so it belongs to me?
00:23:27You'll never pull it off.
00:23:29Let's go.
00:23:35Chris, thank you for standing by me.
00:23:38You married me for a business deal
00:23:40and didn't tell me?
00:23:43It wasn't for a business deal.
00:23:46It was a lawyer thing.
00:23:48I had to get married by next week
00:23:50or else I wouldn't have been able to inherit
00:23:52my mother's company, but it...
00:23:54I'm such an idiot.
00:23:57What?
00:24:01It wasn't a fake marriage!
00:24:03Don't go!
00:24:06He's a fireman?
00:24:08That is hot.
00:24:10Oh, he's incredibly hot,
00:24:12even though he's not an actual firefighter.
00:24:14She thinks you're hot, and you saved her life.
00:24:17That's a pretty good start.
00:24:19So, he saved your life,
00:24:21and then you told him you needed a husband
00:24:23for the inheritance, and then he said...
00:24:25Actually, I didn't tell him that.
00:24:28Yeah, but I didn't hear that from her.
00:24:30I'm sure she was planning to.
00:24:32But there was a lot going on, you know?
00:24:34I almost died in a fire,
00:24:36and then I escaped the hospital,
00:24:38and he kissed you back?
00:24:40Well, no, I mean, it was more than a kiss.
00:24:42I mean, it was like it was melting into him.
00:24:45She makes me feel like she's melting into me.
00:24:48I've never had anybody make me feel that way before.
00:24:51But then to find out that she wasn't being honest with me?
00:24:54You can still fix this, Margaret.
00:24:56Go talk to him.
00:24:58No!
00:25:00Talk to her?
00:25:02No, she was hiding things from me.
00:25:04What about you?
00:25:06You told her the truth,
00:25:08that I am not a firefighter, but was just a helper?
00:25:11What about the fact that you're the CEO
00:25:13of the Fortune 500 company with a net worth of like 1.8 billion?
00:25:16I didn't tell her that part, all right?
00:25:18What if I talk to him, and he just shuts me out?
00:25:21She's afraid you'll shut her up.
00:25:23Do you want to shut her up? Really?
00:25:25What do you really want, Margaret?
00:25:28This is one of those moments in life where it's do or die.
00:25:30You need to open up to him.
00:25:32You need to open up to her!
00:25:36Thank you, guys. I appreciate it.
00:25:38Let's do our part.
00:25:40Boss! Boss!
00:25:42Boss!
00:26:06Hi.
00:26:12Hi, Chris.
00:26:16I know you're busy with the fires.
00:26:18Hi, Margaret.
00:26:20I have something I need to tell you.
00:26:22Now is probably not the best time.
00:26:24I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.
00:26:26I know that you're upset with me.
00:26:28I didn't mean to keep things from you.
00:26:30Everything just started happening so fast.
00:26:32I don't expect you to forgive me, but...
00:26:36I needed you to know that I'm sorry.
00:26:51Wait.
00:26:53How did you find me?
00:26:55I was just driving around.
00:26:57I figured you'd be near the fires.
00:26:59Do not do that again.
00:27:01I...
00:27:03Stay away, okay?
00:27:09Just stay away, okay?
00:27:13If you want to contact me,
00:27:15call me and tell me where to meet you,
00:27:17but please let it be a safe place.
00:27:19You mean you want me to contact you?
00:27:21I certainly don't want you driving around in a red zone.
00:27:24It's far too dangerous.
00:27:26Right.
00:27:28I'll be more careful next time.
00:27:30Will there be a next time?
00:27:33Listen.
00:27:35I didn't exactly tell you everything about me either, okay?
00:27:38Wow, you were so mad that you took your ring off, huh?
00:27:43But when I saw you in that fire,
00:27:46and then afterwards,
00:27:48and you kissed me...
00:27:50Okay, wait. Let's get one thing clear.
00:27:52I don't just go around kissing strange guys, okay?
00:27:54I know. Of course.
00:27:56Of course not.
00:27:58It was a special circumstance.
00:28:01I'm sure I'm never going to do anything like that in my life ever again.
00:28:04I know. It's just that my financial situation is not what...
00:28:24How do you do that?
00:28:26Do that thing where you make me melt into you?
00:28:30Me?
00:28:32I thought you did that. Isn't that what you do?
00:28:34No, it just happens.
00:28:36It's never happened to me before,
00:28:38but it only happens when I'm with you.
00:28:40Okay.
00:28:59We were talking about something.
00:29:01What was that again?
00:29:03Money.
00:29:05Right. Money.
00:29:07Oh my God, who cares about money?
00:29:09I don't care if you're poor or in debt or whatever.
00:29:12Well, that's the thing. I'm not actually...
00:29:14I don't want a rich man.
00:29:16I mean, my father is one, and my stepmother,
00:29:19and you've seen them.
00:29:21They're like a cross between Rita Repulsive and Mr. Krabs.
00:29:24Okay, but you don't think every rich person is like that, right?
00:29:28Look, let's just leave it at this.
00:29:30You don't have money, and so what?
00:29:32I don't need all the details.
00:29:34Are you sure?
00:29:36Do you hate me because I'm poor?
00:29:39You are the most handsome, smartest man that I have ever met.
00:29:44I will never abandon you.
00:29:47Let's just...
00:29:49I will be totally honest with each other from now on.
00:29:53Promise?
00:30:02What's next?
00:30:07He's your new home. My husband.
00:30:11I am a lucky guy.
00:30:13Come on in.
00:30:25Sorry about the space.
00:30:27My company's struggling a little bit, so it's a bit modest, but...
00:30:30No, don't!
00:30:37Stop it! Stop it!
00:30:44I'm sorry.
00:30:46I could fix your pipes for you so that it doesn't explode again.
00:30:51Sure, of course.
00:31:07He's so hot.
00:31:17It should be all good.
00:31:22Sam?
00:31:24What's up?
00:31:36I'm sorry.
00:32:07I know.
00:32:09This better be important. That's a big move.
00:32:13I'll see what I can do.
00:32:15I'm so sorry. I've got to go to work.
00:32:18What?
00:32:19I know.
00:32:21Chris, what is it you actually do for a living?
00:32:31So, you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Moor Corp?
00:32:35That's so cool. And it's going to stop the wildfires?
00:32:38We hope so.
00:32:41My team...
00:32:43Our team has been making some progress this week,
00:32:47but we're supposed to roll it out this weekend, so there's not much time.
00:32:52Geez. I didn't know. You should have told me.
00:32:55I tried.
00:32:57Well, I'm sure you can do it, Chris. I'm rooting for you.
00:33:00You know, I'm not used to having someone at home rooting for me.
00:33:04It's new, but...
00:33:09It's nice.
00:34:17I'll be right there.
00:34:26Something wrong? What happened?
00:34:29What happened is...
00:34:32It worked!
00:34:37We did it.
00:34:40It worked!
00:34:42Margaret, this is going to save lives.
00:34:45Oh.
00:34:47Shoot. I have to go meet with the fire captain.
00:34:50Says it's the big test. We have to prove this suppressant works.
00:34:53I'll see you later.
00:34:56Yes!
00:34:58The fires are going out!
00:35:00We are kicking this fire's ass.
00:35:02I mean, this is a breakthrough in science.
00:35:05We are making history, my friend.
00:35:08All right, guys. Grab every container we got.
00:35:12Bambi buckets, tsunami tanks. Get them filled and airborne.
00:35:16We're going to kill this fire now.
00:35:20Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers
00:35:23to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:27No. We just tested a fire suppressant from Moore Corp.
00:35:30It's superior to that crap you've been sending us.
00:35:33L.A. is burning.
00:35:35We're going to kill this fire now.
00:35:37Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers
00:35:40to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:43No. We just tested a fire suppressant from Moore Corp.
00:35:47L.A. is burning.
00:35:49We don't have time for your city hall bullshit.
00:35:51And I don't have time for your insubordination.
00:35:54How much kickback are you making from this, Madam Mayor?
00:35:57How many houses need to burn down in order for you to make a profit
00:36:00off of the bogus chemicals that don't even work?
00:36:03I gave you an order.
00:36:05Load my fire suppressant or you're fired.
00:36:08Good. Fired.
00:36:10Because I will not be responsible for your disaster.
00:36:13Your wish is granted.
00:36:15You're fired.
00:36:19This is the end of Chief Taylor.
00:36:22No. I think this is the end of Mayor Davis.
00:36:25Remember, I said it.
00:36:27Get out of here and take this piece of trash with you.
00:36:38Okay. Our deal has changed.
00:36:41One-third is not enough.
00:36:43I want a two-third cut.
00:36:45I need to make some money off of this thing.
00:36:48Don't you look so glum?
00:36:50I'm gonna make you CEO of Foster, Inc.
00:36:54I got a new plan.
00:36:56Come on. The door won't open itself.
00:37:05Congratulations on your victory. I'm so proud of you.
00:37:09Almost a victory.
00:37:11The mayor shut us down.
00:37:13She's been colluding with your dad.
00:37:16We're finished.
00:37:18She's the whole city holding back her up.
00:37:21Hey, don't let them scare you.
00:37:23Bureaucrats like to live in little protected hives.
00:37:26Once you crack those hives open,
00:37:28they scatter like roaches looking for the nearest drainpipe.
00:37:34Boss, I think your dad set up a board meeting
00:37:37behind your back for tomorrow.
00:37:40Copy that.
00:37:44Great. My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:47So it seems like we have a common enemy.
00:37:51And?
00:37:53And I'd like to do you the favor of destroying him.
00:37:56How? Do you want me to put you on the board of directors?
00:38:00No, no. I want to be your assistant.
00:38:03What? I'm gonna be your boss?
00:38:07Mm-hmm. I've got an idea.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:17All right, let's make this fast.
00:38:19Margaret cannot be the CEO of this company.
00:38:21I don't care what the will says.
00:38:23Even the mayor wants Margaret out.
00:38:26Shouldn't Margaret be here to at least speak for herself?
00:38:29Don't be dense.
00:38:31Margaret will be out before she knows what hit her.
00:38:33And Caitlin will be in.
00:38:35Any board meeting without my approval is illegal.
00:38:38You are not authorized.
00:38:40She is fully authorized.
00:38:43Oh, what the hell?
00:38:44Not you again.
00:38:46This is a board meeting only for employees of Foster Incorporated.
00:38:50Right. Well, why don't you all help me welcome our newest employee?
00:38:54I put Chris on the payroll this morning.
00:38:56He's my new personal assistant.
00:39:00Assistant of what? Cleaning toilets?
00:39:04Oh, my God.
00:39:06Margaret, this is just so like you.
00:39:09Soling our company with your low-life husband.
00:39:13Well, I'm glad you acknowledge me as Margaret's husband,
00:39:16as that covers our first point today on our agenda.
00:39:19Section 12.3.C.
00:39:22Margaret Foster will inherit Foster Inc.
00:39:25so long as she is married by the designated date.
00:39:29So, this means that Margaret is now the owner of Foster Incorporated.
00:39:36From now on, you will call her Madam CEO.
00:39:40No.
00:39:42When are you going to get me one of those?
00:39:44When you get some class.
00:39:46Don't, pal. We're going to take them out right now.
00:39:50It doesn't change anything.
00:39:52That's right. This company has been hemorrhaging money because of you, Margaret.
00:39:56We will not let you destroy it.
00:39:58The only people who can take care of that is sitting right here in this room.
00:40:02Me and my brilliant new man.
00:40:06Steel can turn this company around like that.
00:40:10Tell them, honey.
00:40:12Get rid of her, and I'll double the company's revenue in four months.
00:40:16Backed by the mayor.
00:40:17My mom.
00:40:18100%.
00:40:20The mayor herself.
00:40:23That's exactly what we need.
00:40:25I like when you take control.
00:40:28Hold on. Margaret and I can also increase Foster Incorporated's revenues.
00:40:35He's going to double the revenue in four months.
00:40:38No one else can match it.
00:40:40Oh, we can.
00:40:42Chris, what are you saying?
00:40:44Stick with me, okay?
00:40:46What I'm about to say is a promise.
00:40:48A guarantee.
00:40:50Mr. Davis, you claim that you can double revenues in four months.
00:40:55Yes, I can.
00:40:56We will increase revenues tenfold.
00:40:59In only one month.
00:41:10In only one month.
00:41:14Shit.
00:41:16No one can do that.
00:41:18It's crazy.
00:41:19We can't make that kind of promise.
00:41:21It's impossible.
00:41:22Margaret, follow my lead, okay?
00:41:26This is ludicrous.
00:41:28Okay.
00:41:29How the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company revenue?
00:41:33Margaret is a master of outreach.
00:41:36She will set up a strategic partnership with the Moore Corporation.
00:41:40The Moore Corporation has operations in every country in the world.
00:41:44They won't even take a phone call from Margaret.
00:41:47Oh, but they already have.
00:41:49In fact, the manager has set up a meeting for Margaret tomorrow.
00:41:55Yeah, that's bullshit.
00:41:57Moore Corp would never work with a nobody like Margaret.
00:41:59You're delusional.
00:42:01Well, there is no harm to let her try.
00:42:04What?
00:42:06You'd better not disappoint us, Margaret.
00:42:08Okay, let's just make this straight here, okay?
00:42:12Margaret, you have one month to deliver Moore Corp
00:42:16and make this company's revenue, what, tenfold, you said?
00:42:19One month, or else the will is null and void
00:42:24and you disappear forever.
00:42:29Agreed.
00:42:33Oh, you dug your own grave, sis.
00:42:37One month from now, we're going to kick you to the gutter,
00:42:40where you belong, with your gutter husband.
00:42:53Chris, you can't make up stories like this.
00:42:56God, I'm going to lose my mother's company.
00:43:00Why did you tell them that they scheduled a meeting?
00:43:03Because I did.
00:43:06Moore Corp is expecting you, tomorrow.
00:43:09They are? You're not joking?
00:43:12No.
00:43:13Oh my God, Chris, that's amazing.
00:43:16By the way, his rings are great.
00:43:19They almost look real.
00:43:21Yeah, almost.
00:43:25Calm down.
00:43:28We're not going to let your daughter beat you.
00:43:31There's no way she can beat me.
00:43:33Moore Corp's never worked with a nobody like her, right?
00:43:36But what if she makes it happen?
00:43:38Then we'll stop her.
00:43:40How?
00:43:45Gina, I'm sending over the contact information
00:43:48of the company to you.
00:43:51Gina, I'm sending over the contact info
00:43:54for Christopher Moore, the CEO of Moore Corporation.
00:43:58Tell his office the mayor is coming to see him tomorrow.
00:44:02I expect him to be there.
00:44:06Either Mr. Moore does what I tell him to do,
00:44:09or I'll shut down his operations in the city.
00:44:13That'd be a multi-billion dollar loss for him.
00:44:21Christopher Moore guy is a real mystery man.
00:44:25No public appearances.
00:44:27And let's not forget,
00:44:29we rejected his fire suppressants,
00:44:31so he's probably pretty pissed off at us.
00:44:34Don't worry about that.
00:44:36We'll find out who he is and how to get to him.
00:44:39That's my specialty.
00:44:45I've never met with the management
00:44:47of a global corporation before.
00:44:49Maybe you have and you just didn't know it.
00:44:52I'd know. They're all assholes.
00:44:54You see them coming from a mile away.
00:45:00This PowerPoint isn't quite ready yet, I don't think.
00:45:06We need to grab their attention right away.
00:45:09And the flowery writing,
00:45:12it's a business meeting, not a poetry club.
00:45:16I mean, have you heard of bullet points?
00:45:19Okay, all right, all right.
00:45:21Why don't you show me what you would do
00:45:23at the presentation?
00:45:28Like the pink?
00:45:30I don't think they're going to like me very much.
00:45:34The CEO loves you.
00:45:37The CEO of Moore Corp?
00:45:39How could he love me? I've never even met the guy.
00:45:42I mean, he knows you.
00:45:45I've mentioned you to him before.
00:45:48Whoa, Chris, you know the CEO?
00:45:51Who are you?
00:45:53I'm just a nobody.
00:45:55You're not a nobody, you're my husband.
00:46:04It's great, it's just that these guys
00:46:06don't have the attention spans.
00:46:08With a business proposal,
00:46:10we could do something along the lines of...
00:46:16Today, we are going to be talking about...
00:46:19Do you feel like you're giving a school presentation?
00:46:22Or playing Twister?
00:46:24I'm dramatic vet.
00:46:26I'm pulling their attention.
00:46:28You are, exactly.
00:46:29It's acting.
00:46:31Talking about my presentation that I have.
00:46:46Good morning, boss.
00:46:49I mean, boxes of mints are on the table
00:46:53if you'd like to try one.
00:46:55He will show us to the office.
00:46:57I will show you to that office.
00:46:59What an honor.
00:47:00It's nice to meet you.
00:47:01I think I've heard your voice before.
00:47:03Oh, of course.
00:47:04We work closely together,
00:47:06and he's my...
00:47:10manager.
00:47:12What?
00:47:14I think you're right.
00:47:16I think so.
00:47:21I need you to sit with me.
00:47:23Why?
00:47:24We have an agreement to sign.
00:47:26She still doesn't know who you are.
00:47:29Copy that, I'll set up the meeting now.
00:47:31Oh, and the mayor wants to meet you.
00:47:33Of course she does.
00:47:34She's in the office now.
00:47:36What a surprise.
00:47:37Surprise?
00:47:38What's the surprise?
00:47:42Surprise.
00:47:43What's the surprise?
00:47:44Someone else wants a meeting,
00:47:46but they are just going to have to wait.
00:47:55We have been waiting here for half an hour.
00:47:59Yes, that's because you didn't make an appointment in advance.
00:48:03I am the mayor.
00:48:04I know who you are.
00:48:06We all do.
00:48:07My cousin lost her home in the fires.
00:48:10Don't you have more important things to do right now?
00:48:14How dare you?
00:48:16You are just a useless office girl.
00:48:20Now, tell Mr. Moore that I insist...
00:48:31Good morning, Mr. Moore.
00:48:34That's him.
00:48:37Oh, my God.
00:48:39Can you believe they let common street trash
00:48:43in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:45Excuse me, why don't you call him Mr. Moore?
00:48:53Oh, no, no.
00:48:55I was just saying, mister, there's more.
00:48:58Like, more mints in the waiting room.
00:49:01What is with the mints here?
00:49:03We've got really good mints.
00:49:05Don't worry about it.
00:49:06I might have underestimated you, okay?
00:49:08But don't you get delusional.
00:49:10Whoever you're meeting has to be a low-level lackey.
00:49:13Let's get real.
00:49:14The mayor and I are meeting the CEO.
00:49:17Stop.
00:49:18Which means you have zero chance of ever beating me.
00:49:23Got it?
00:49:25Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:28Do you mind waiting here just a bit longer?
00:49:31Fine.
00:49:32Jane, sorry your meeting got delayed.
00:49:34Well, mine is right on the dot.
00:49:36You see, my husband and I made a presentation together.
00:49:39It's very professional.
00:49:41Do you think Moore Corp. is really gonna like it?
00:49:45I'm taking three.
00:49:49Meant to be.
00:49:52How dare she? How dare she?
00:49:54Fine.
00:49:56We wait.
00:49:58But he better be here soon.
00:50:00I mean, of course.
00:50:01After all, you're the mayor.
00:50:04Thank you all for meeting with me today.
00:50:07My name is Barbara Koster and I'm...
00:50:21And I would love to work with you.
00:50:31Congratulations.
00:50:35He still isn't here?
00:50:37This is outrageous.
00:50:39Mr. Moore is on the way, but...
00:50:41You know, L.A. traffic, plus the fires, make it even worse.
00:50:46Excuse me.
00:50:53Sorry to interrupt your indignation, but do you have a sheet protector that I could use?
00:50:58I just signed a contract and I don't want to get it stained or anything.
00:51:01Congratulations, Ms. Foster.
00:51:03Yeah, okay. Quit playing games.
00:51:05You didn't sign any contract.
00:51:07Well, unfortunately for you, I did.
00:51:10And it's for a hundred million dollar deal.
00:51:14Bullshit.
00:51:18Looks like I will be the CEO of Foster Inc. after all.
00:51:23You must be so proud of your daughter, Dad.
00:51:28Call me that!
00:51:30I will not let you do this.
00:51:32By the way, when are your friends showing up?
00:51:35Three, two, one.
00:51:41Madam Mayor, what do you have to say about the new fires that just broke out?
00:51:45Oh no, not again.
00:51:48You'll have to schedule an interview with my press team.
00:51:51I don't have time for this right now.
00:51:53Well, it looks like you have plenty of time.
00:51:55Tell us, why aren't you out there stopping the fires?
00:51:58What do you have to say?
00:52:00It is completely unfair that you are judging me.
00:52:03I am working every minute on this.
00:52:06But you rejected Moore Corp.'s fire suppressant.
00:52:09And you made a deal with Mr. Foster.
00:52:11I had my reasons.
00:52:13And what were they?
00:52:15And what were they? Personal profits? Stock options?
00:52:21Oh, Mr. Foster, it's you.
00:52:24We got a tip that you have an under-the-table deal with Madam Mayor.
00:52:28And that your fire suppressant doesn't even work.
00:52:32That is complete nonsense. Complete nonsense, that is.
00:52:37This is a witch hunt.
00:52:39Madam Mayor, just one more.
00:52:41Ask her why she canned the fire chief
00:52:43while her son is collecting millions
00:52:45as a paid consultant for city contractors.
00:52:48So much corruption, so little time.
00:52:51Let's go.
00:52:53Madam Mayor, just one more for the people.
00:52:56Last question is on your personal record.
00:53:01Why aren't you out there trying to stop the fires?
00:53:04It is completely unfair for you to judge me.
00:53:07I have been working on this every day.
00:53:10One of our eyewitness team members has found a secret ledger
00:53:13showing the city is paying triple for the fire suppressant.
00:53:16You know, you were perfect in today's meeting.
00:53:22Yeah, but the CEO, Mr. Moore, didn't show up.
00:53:25I wonder what he's like.
00:53:29Probably just some rich a-hole.
00:53:32That's what you said, remember?
00:53:34Yeah, but his company's actually doing good things.
00:53:38I kind of want to meet him.
00:53:40I don't know if that's a great idea.
00:53:43He's a bachelor, you know?
00:53:45He might try to steal you from me.
00:53:48Oh, that is not gonna happen.
00:53:53I felt you supporting me today, Chris.
00:53:55All day.
00:53:57I haven't felt that support since my mom passed away.
00:54:00I'm sorry you had to go through that.
00:54:02I know it must have been a very dark time.
00:54:05She was my rock.
00:54:07I can be the rock of your life now.
00:54:11I want to be the person you lean on when you need it.
00:54:15You know, sometimes I just want to rip your clothes off
00:54:19and drag you to bed, and other times I just want to get closer
00:54:22and feel your heart beating next to mine.
00:54:33My heart is racing.
00:54:36For you.
00:55:06I love you.
00:55:09I'll do it right.
00:55:11We've got all night.
00:55:14I'll take it so high.
00:55:18Baby, let me love you.
00:55:21Let me love you.
00:55:23Baby, let me love you.
00:55:32You killed it, Margaret.
00:55:34You're a rock star.
00:55:36We're with you, Margaret.
00:55:38Always.
00:55:39You see?
00:55:40Everyone's with you now.
00:55:42No one supports you now.
00:55:44Because this is a bogus agreement.
00:55:47It's a publicity stunt.
00:55:49Can't you see?
00:55:50Like anyone's gonna give her a hundred million dollars.
00:55:54Oh my gosh.
00:56:05Put me through to finance.
00:56:07We need to make a bank transfer.
00:56:09Once they find out that my surprise is better than Moore Company's,
00:56:13they're gonna cut Margaret off like that.
00:56:17Oh, so who are you supporting now?
00:56:26Are you sure Moore Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:35Are you sure Moore Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:40A hundred percent.
00:56:42Why would they shell out cash to someone like that?
00:56:46Because a down payment of thirty million dollars just landed in our corporate account.
00:56:52From Moore Corp.
00:56:54Oh, wrong again, Dad.
00:56:58It seems like you're making a real habit of that.
00:57:01Just you wait.
00:57:03Once they see that my surprise is superior,
00:57:06all this will be all gone.
00:57:11Margaret, we want you to know that we support you and we've been on your side all along.
00:57:16Yes.
00:57:17I greatly appreciate that.
00:57:22Seems like we have some big things to do.
00:57:28Today's the day that we prove our suppressiveness superior once and for all.
00:57:34Get those stupid reporters off our backs.
00:57:36And as the new fire chief, you know what your job is, right?
00:57:42Fight the fires?
00:57:45No.
00:57:47Make sure you follow my commands.
00:57:53It's them.
00:57:56How did you know they were going to be here?
00:57:58Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:03Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:05Hey, I'm just a regular guy.
00:58:08That's what you said.
00:58:09That's why you like me, remember?
00:58:11Well, for a regular guy, you sure do have a lot of inside information.
00:58:15I just know they ordered a chopper today, off record, and I want to know why.
00:58:20There it is.
00:58:33The fires are getting worse.
00:58:34Holy shit.
00:58:36Oh, no.
00:58:39That's not fire suppressant.
00:58:41It's more like fire starter.
00:58:43Call the chopper and tell them to stop dropping it.
00:58:46Oh, my God.
00:58:49Are we late?
00:58:50The payloads have all been dropped.
00:58:52Good God, it's coming our direction.
00:58:54You're an idiot.
00:58:56If this reaches us, everything here is going to blow sky high.
00:59:03No, how do hot pots like this get control of a city?
00:59:06We've got to do something about this.
00:59:07How?
00:59:09I'll figure something out, but first I've got to get you to safety.
00:59:11Come on.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:13Come on.
00:59:14Okay.
00:59:18For now, I just want you to stay here and be careful.
00:59:21You need to be careful, too, Chris.
00:59:23You're not fireproof, you know.
00:59:27What are you doing here?
00:59:29Step ahead of you.
00:59:30Thought you might need my help.
00:59:32Okay.
00:59:34Yeah, I've got a few things you can do for me.
00:59:37You've got stuff to do for him?
00:59:39But I thought he was your manager.
00:59:41He is, but the thing is...
00:59:46As your manager, I have to look after my employees.
00:59:50I might even give you a raise next year, Chris.
00:59:56Just stay here.
00:59:58Keep a watch on the fire alerts, okay?
01:00:00I will call my people, our people, to protect you.
01:00:07Tomorrow.
01:00:12I'm going to have them come to Margaret's house immediately.
01:00:14Really?
01:00:15You didn't even do that for your own house, which is worth like $100 million.
01:00:18Just do it, okay?
01:00:20Okay.
01:00:21I'm only saying her house is worth like half a million.
01:00:24The cost of the service is probably $50,000.
01:00:27It's not always about money, Whitman.
01:00:29Okay.
01:00:30Call them right now.
01:00:32You're paying the bill.
01:00:33It's going to be an expensive call.
01:00:43Fire protection service?
01:00:46Where'd they come from?
01:00:51You screwed this up!
01:00:54I could bankrupt you like that!
01:00:57Hold on.
01:00:58I know how to fix all of this with just two words.
01:01:01More Corp.
01:01:03Okay?
01:01:04We buy all their fire suppressant.
01:01:06You know, very hush-hush.
01:01:08And then you get all the credit for it.
01:01:10How?
01:01:11They blocked our calls.
01:01:13We can't get to them.
01:01:14Yeah, we can't.
01:01:16But Margaret can.
01:01:19And she is still my daughter.
01:01:25My critics are politically motivated.
01:01:28We have the fires completely under control.
01:01:32This is bullshit.
01:01:34I grew up in Los Angeles.
01:01:35I played in these parks and in these playgrounds.
01:01:42Not to watch it all burn down,
01:01:44because these fools won't use a fire suppressant that works.
01:01:47Margaret.
01:01:57I hope you don't mind me interrupting, Mr. Whitman.
01:02:01Huh?
01:02:02Oh, yes.
01:02:03Well, yes, it's my office.
01:02:06But, you know, if it's important.
01:02:08It is.
01:02:09If it's important.
01:02:10It is.
01:02:11Chris, my father called.
01:02:14He wants something.
01:02:18My father called.
01:02:19He wants something.
01:02:21The answer is no.
01:02:23If there's something that your dad wants, it's probably that.
01:02:26Maybe not this time.
01:02:28He wants to call a truce.
01:02:31It's very unusual for Mr. Moore to grant a meeting on such short notice.
01:02:36You'll need to be quick.
01:02:37Right.
01:02:38Mr. Moore is a very private man,
01:02:40and this meeting is entirely confidential.
01:02:42Do not try to look at his face.
01:02:45Talk.
01:02:47Well, to be a vendor in this city,
01:02:50you have to go through lots of protocols,
01:02:53and that takes time.
01:02:55We don't have time.
01:02:57Exactly.
01:02:58You see, Mr. Foster's company is already an approved vendor,
01:03:03and so...
01:03:04So we sell to Mr. Foster.
01:03:06He sells to the city.
01:03:08We can't let anyone know.
01:03:10Do I have that right?
01:03:11You are fast, Mr. Moore.
01:03:14So what's your price?
01:03:16Free.
01:03:18But you have to answer this one question.
01:03:20Why are you doing this?
01:03:23Well, we were just concerned for the city.
01:03:27Cut the bullshit.
01:03:29Speak to me straight, or get out.
01:03:33Okay.
01:03:35Okay, let's put our cards on the table.
01:03:42We'll put our cards on the table.
01:03:45We're doing this because
01:03:49We're doing this because
01:03:52our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:03:55It made the fires worse.
01:03:58If the public finds out, we're screwed.
01:04:01So we'd like to use the Moore Corps' fire suppressant,
01:04:06but you can't tell anyone.
01:04:08They have to believe we made it.
01:04:11If you agree,
01:04:12I will guarantee permission of the shopping mall
01:04:15you applied for in downtown L.A.
01:04:19Deal?
01:04:22Deal.
01:04:24We'll deliver 2,000 tons of the suppressant this afternoon,
01:04:27but you must deploy it immediately.
01:04:31Fine.
01:04:33Um, just to confirm,
01:04:35what's the price?
01:04:37Zero.
01:04:39Zero.
01:04:41You don't pay a penny.
01:04:44Well, that sounds like a win-win.
01:04:47Cut the formalities.
01:04:49We're done here.
01:04:56Okay, thanks.
01:05:00This guy's a prime idiot.
01:05:03He chose for you.
01:05:05He's a billionaire, you fool.
01:05:07He doesn't care about small money.
01:05:09I knew he wanted to build that mall.
01:05:12That's how I got him.
01:05:14I don't understand.
01:05:16Why did you give it to them for free?
01:05:19Because I got exactly what I wanted.
01:05:25Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:05:28It made the fires worse.
01:05:31It's been an hour.
01:05:33Why haven't we gotten any word?
01:05:35It's been 20 minutes,
01:05:37and the pilots need time to convert.
01:05:39Mrs. Mayer, it worked.
01:05:41It's like a miracle.
01:05:43Moor Corp's suppressant is...
01:05:45Don't say Moor Corp.
01:05:48No one is to know where it's from.
01:05:51As far as the world is concerned,
01:05:54it's our suppressant.
01:05:57Got it?
01:05:58Yes, got it.
01:06:00No problem.
01:06:04You know how much money this is going to make us?
01:06:08You are going to be known as the mayor
01:06:12who saved the city.
01:06:15And you are going to win the next election
01:06:20by a landslide.
01:06:22Exactly.
01:06:28Gina, arrange a press conference for tomorrow.
01:06:32We're going to let everyone know
01:06:35I saved Los Angeles.
01:06:44Every news outlet saying the same thing.
01:06:49It's not a fluke.
01:06:51The first time in a week,
01:06:53the fires are retreating.
01:06:55What about the suppressant?
01:06:57They've dropped all of it,
01:06:59and they want more.
01:07:01The winds have even died down.
01:07:03It's like nature is on our side now.
01:07:06Finally.
01:07:12Finally.
01:07:14The mayor has called a press conference.
01:07:17The mayor has called a press conference.
01:07:19You know she's going to take credit
01:07:21for stopping the fires.
01:07:23I know she's going to try.
01:07:25Oh, what about Margaret?
01:07:28This is not good, boss.
01:07:30She really thinks I run more corn.
01:07:32I don't know why.
01:07:33You are entirely unconvincing.
01:07:36Totally convincing.
01:07:38What you need is some acting classes.
01:07:42Don't you think it's time to let her in on this?
01:07:45As a matter of fact,
01:07:46I've got it all planned out for tonight.
01:07:49One step ahead of you, boss.
01:07:54Margaret, I have to tell you something.
01:07:56Is my father trying to sabotage me again?
01:07:58You know I'm not afraid of him.
01:07:59No, it's not like that.
01:08:02It's about your husband.
01:08:05My husband.
01:08:06He is totally overprotective.
01:08:08You know that I had to convince him
01:08:10that it was safe enough for me
01:08:11to come into my own office?
01:08:13Margaret, it's about those rings.
01:08:26I've had enough.
01:08:28I've had enough.
01:08:30I've had enough.
01:08:33I have a surprise for you tonight, sweetheart.
01:08:36Two dozen fresh roses,
01:08:38Noki de la Luna.
01:08:40Oh, and I can finally tell you
01:08:43those rings on your finger are real.
01:08:48They are a little ridiculous.
01:08:50I mean, who has diamonds this size?
01:08:52Well, that's the thing.
01:08:54Some people do have diamonds that size.
01:08:57There's a name for those people.
01:08:59Billionaires.
01:09:01Isabel, what are you talking about?
01:09:04Margaret, I've got something to tell you.
01:09:07Now, I would have told you sooner,
01:09:09but you hate rich people so much
01:09:11that I was afraid you were going to get a guillotine out.
01:09:15How much do you know
01:09:17about Morecorp's CEO, Christopher Moore?
01:09:20He's some rich guy?
01:09:22Who never met with you
01:09:23because he doesn't make public appearances.
01:09:26Yeah, so?
01:09:29Do you remember that private investigator we used
01:09:31to look into that auditing glitch last year?
01:09:33Good God, Isabel,
01:09:34would you just tell me what you're talking about?
01:09:36I asked the PI to trace known records of Moore.
01:09:39There was very little there,
01:09:42but he did find one tidbit.
01:09:44Moore purchased some jewelry.
01:09:47Okay, yeah.
01:09:48Rich guys buy jewelry, so what?
01:09:51So...
01:09:53this is what he bought.
01:09:56Look familiar?
01:09:57Yeah, those look like my rings.
01:09:59So he bought the real ones, and Chris bought copies.
01:10:03Well, this is the ledger entry.
01:10:05Look at the date.
01:10:07He bought these in L.A.
01:10:09the same day that Chris gave you those.
01:10:17So that means my husband is...
01:10:20Christopher Moore?
01:10:22So you're making a fire suppressant
01:10:25because you work for Moore Corp.?
01:10:27Kind of.
01:10:28Margaret is a master of outreach.
01:10:30She will set up a strategic partnership
01:10:32with the Moore Corporation.
01:10:34Good morning, Mr. Moore.
01:10:35I trusted him!
01:10:36How many times am I going to be lied to in my life?
01:10:39Margaret, your husband's a billionaire.
01:10:42Who cares about you?
01:10:44Every woman in L.A. wants to be you.
01:10:46No, no, this is so wrong.
01:10:50Okay.
01:10:52Casserole's in the oven.
01:10:54Salad's in the fridge.
01:10:56Jean-Paulard Beaujolais on the chill.
01:11:05Now let's have a prayer that you'll listen to me with an open mind.
01:11:19Margaret, I have something to tell you.
01:11:23Margaret, I have something to tell you.
01:11:27Margaret, I...
01:11:29Don't say another word.
01:11:32Just leave.
01:11:36You're a liar!
01:11:50I am proud to announce
01:11:53that the fires that have been ravaging this city
01:11:56are now extinguished.
01:12:00These fires are out because of our brave mayor,
01:12:03Michelle Baywood.
01:12:07And I just want to say thank you to the firefighters.
01:12:10I am the one who put out these fires.
01:12:15Girl, you really kicked a billionaire out of your house?
01:12:19He lied to me.
01:12:21I've had enough betrayal for an entire lifetime.
01:12:23I'm sure he had his reasons.
01:12:25He didn't mean to hurt you, Margaret.
01:12:27Yeah, well, it hurts anyway.
01:12:35And I would like to acknowledge myself
01:12:38for the courage, the vision,
01:12:42and the leadership that great leaders show
01:12:45when they're leading.
01:12:49Cringe.
01:12:51You cannot overstate how stupid she is.
01:12:54Can I just say one more thing?
01:12:56No, you cannot.
01:12:58The fire suppressant that put out the fires
01:13:02was created by me
01:13:05and deployed at my command.
01:13:09Yes, thank you.
01:13:11It's me who saved L.A.
01:13:14Support me.
01:13:16Vote for me.
01:13:18Y'all know you can trust me.
01:13:23God bless...
01:13:26Ladies and gentlemen, excuse me.
01:13:30Ladies and gentlemen, excuse me.
01:13:38Everything that you have just heard
01:13:41is a fairy tale.
01:13:43Fiction.
01:13:44A lie.
01:13:46Oh, my goodness.
01:13:48Is that her billionaire husband?
01:13:55The mayor has been lying to you all.
01:13:58Pay no attention to this man.
01:14:00Security, have him removed.
01:14:03Y'all, pay no attention to this.
01:14:05There's nothing to see here.
01:14:07The firemen are the true heroes who saved this city.
01:14:10The mayor has time and time again tried to stop them.
01:14:13That is bullshit.
01:14:15Security, do your jobs.
01:14:18No, no, no, let him speak.
01:14:20It's a free country.
01:14:21Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:22Yeah, we want a statement.
01:14:24Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:25Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:26Mayor Davis, why are you afraid of this man?
01:14:28Are you hiding something?
01:14:30Of course not.
01:14:31She's afraid of me because she knows
01:14:33that I can tell you all right now what actually happened.
01:14:36Then why should we listen to you?
01:14:40Because the fire suppressant that actually put out the fires
01:14:43was supplied by Moor Court.
01:14:45And I am the CEO of Moor Court.
01:14:50I am Christopher Moore.
01:14:52Well, he's not hiding his identity anymore.
01:14:55He's taking on the whole city.
01:14:57Instead of trying to put the fires out,
01:14:59the mayor and her collaborators will profit...
01:15:04I want to watch this live.
01:15:06You coming?
01:15:08No.
01:15:14Yes, hold on, Isabel.
01:15:19My company has been trying to assist the firefighters.
01:15:23He's the CEO of Moor Court?
01:15:26Why didn't you tell me, you dumbass?
01:15:28If we don't stop him, we're all screwed.
01:15:30Then do something to stop him.
01:15:32The mayor threatened us,
01:15:33and time and time again tried to get in our way.
01:15:36That is not true.
01:15:39Look, I received a medal for all of my hard work
01:15:42in putting out those fires.
01:15:44I wouldn't have given myself this medal
01:15:46if I didn't deserve it.
01:15:49Mr. Moore, I think there's been a little misunderstanding
01:15:52when I speak to you privately.
01:15:54The mayor wanted me to remind you
01:15:57about the mission.
01:15:59Shopping mall.
01:16:01Oh, of course.
01:16:03That reminds me.
01:16:04Whitman.
01:16:06Let's play them that video we brought.
01:16:14Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:16:17It made the fires worse.
01:16:19If the public finds out, we are screwed.
01:16:24Why are you hiding the truth from the citizens
01:16:26in your own city?
01:16:27Okay, this is a complete fabrication.
01:16:31Look at that.
01:16:32It's an AIGCD fake.
01:16:35I have something to say about that.
01:16:45No.
01:16:46No!
01:16:47This man has no business here.
01:16:50He was fired for dereliction of duty.
01:16:53Officers, remove him.
01:16:59Are you going to stop me?
01:17:04No, sir, chief.
01:17:06We'll clear the way.
01:17:08Everyone, get ready for Chief Taylor and his men.
01:17:11They're heroes.
01:17:17They're heroes.
01:17:18Stop them.
01:17:19That's an order.
01:17:22You've got to stop them.
01:17:24You guys can't come up here.
01:17:26This is a violation.
01:17:28Don't you touch me.
01:17:33We want Chief Taylor reinstated.
01:17:36Yeah, that's right.
01:17:37Taylor! Taylor! Taylor!
01:17:40Taylor! Taylor! Taylor!
01:17:43Shut up!
01:17:46All of you are fired.
01:17:48No.
01:17:49You can't do that.
01:17:50Let him speak.
01:17:54Stop touching me.
01:17:56Ladies and gentlemen,
01:17:57the reason I was dismissed
01:17:59is because I refused to use
01:18:02the mayor's defective fire suppressant.
01:18:05You can't prove that.
01:18:07Actually...
01:18:16I can.
01:18:17Mayor Davis, this is a huge scandal.
01:18:20You should resign.
01:18:22Get out of here.
01:18:24No!
01:18:25Listen to me.
01:18:27Stop it.
01:18:28Stop it.
01:18:29Stop it.
01:18:30Stop it.
01:18:31Stop it.
01:18:32Stop it.
01:18:33Stop it.
01:18:34Stop it.
01:18:35Stop it.
01:18:36Stop it.
01:18:41Before we wrap this up,
01:18:42I'd like to share something
01:18:44personal with you all.
01:18:46Chief Taylor, if you don't mind.
01:18:49Go ahead.
01:18:51We've all lived
01:18:53through this horrible disaster.
01:18:56But in the midst of tragedy,
01:18:58sometimes you can find clarity,
01:19:01beauty, and hope.
01:19:03And I think that's what we all need.
01:19:06I think that's what we all need.
01:19:09I think that's what we all need.
01:19:11I think that's what we all need.
01:19:13Beauty and even love.
01:19:16The catastrophe of these L.A. wildfires
01:19:20has brought much darkness.
01:19:22But it's also brought people together.
01:19:25It brought a woman with a beautiful heart
01:19:28into my life.
01:19:29And if I can take a moment of your time,
01:19:31I'd like to try to get a message to her.
01:19:34Margaret, I love you.
01:19:38It hurts to not be with you.
01:19:41I know I kept things from you,
01:19:42and that was not right.
01:19:44I don't expect you to forgive me,
01:19:47but if I'm being honest,
01:19:49you're the only person I'll ever love.
01:19:52L.A. is full of idols and superstars,
01:19:56but you, you're the only superstar
01:19:59I've ever wanted or will ever want.
01:20:04The fires may be out now,
01:20:07but there's a fire in my heart
01:20:09that will never stop burning.
01:20:12It will burn forever for you.
01:20:19So if you can find it in your heart to forgive me,
01:20:22no matter how much time it takes,
01:20:24I will be waiting.
01:20:26I don't know where you are,
01:20:29but I hope somehow you've heard my message.
01:20:37I heard it.
01:20:42Margaret, last time you proposed to me,
01:20:47now I'm proposing to you.
01:20:54Margaret, will you marry me and be my wife?
01:21:07Yes.
01:21:34You're doing the melting thing again.
01:21:36Really?
01:21:41Mom, that's not good.
01:21:43Christopher Moore's accusing you of embezzlement,
01:21:45money laundering, securities fraud.
01:21:48I will make his life a living hell.
01:21:51Michelle Davis, you're under arrest
01:21:54on 12 counts of corruption.
01:21:56Are you insane?
01:21:58You just committed career suicide.
01:22:01You're fired.
01:22:03You're all fired.
01:22:05She's the mayor and you are under arrest
01:22:07for interfering with law enforcement.
01:22:09Let's go. Take them both.
01:22:11You have the right to remain silent.
01:22:13I fired you.
01:22:14You're going to regret this.
01:22:18Hurry up. We need to run.
01:22:20The police will be here soon.
01:22:21Why should I leave?
01:22:22I don't want to go anywhere.
01:22:24I've got free tickets to Venezuela.
01:22:26You get to sit by the window.
01:22:28We have to rebuild our lives there.
01:22:30Don't worry.
01:22:31I have plenty of cash
01:22:33and I have a buyer lined up for the house.
01:22:35Apologies, but you can't sell something
01:22:38that's not rightfully yours.
01:22:41What the hell is going on here?
01:22:43You can't sell my mother's house
01:22:45because you acquired it illegally.
01:22:47No, Margaret.
01:22:50My daughter.
01:22:52I wasn't going to sell it.
01:22:54It belongs to you.
01:22:55Your mother's company, her home,
01:22:58it's all yours.
01:23:01Mr. Moore.
01:23:03I'm your father-in-law.
01:23:05I'm almost 60.
01:23:07You don't want to put me away, do you?
01:23:09You know, you have a good point, Dad.
01:23:12Oh, wait.
01:23:13You asked me specifically to not call you that.
01:23:16You know, in fact, since the day that I met you,
01:23:18you've done nothing but try to destroy your own daughter.
01:23:21No.
01:23:22You're paying for what you did, Dad.
01:23:25Hey!
01:23:26How dare you?
01:23:28You put your own father in jail?
01:23:31You are an ungrateful little bitch.
01:23:36Oh, no.
01:23:37I forgot.
01:23:38You can't leave the country until the trial's over.
01:23:50Oh, and by the way,
01:23:52your assets are frozen, so you can't stay at this hotel.
01:23:55But don't worry.
01:23:56We've made arrangements for you to stay at a different place.
01:24:00What other arrangements?
01:24:02You know that Motel 6 right around the corner?
01:24:05What?
01:24:06Oh, my God.
01:24:07No.
01:24:08No, no, no!
01:24:14Those cheating scumbags can't get their hands on this house ever again.
01:24:20I bet your mom was an amazing person.
01:24:23I'm sure she loved you so much.
01:24:25She always wanted me to get married in her wedding dress.
01:24:38She'd say no matter where she was,
01:24:40she'd be able to feel it, heart to heart.
01:24:43What do you think?
01:24:47I think you are so radiant
01:24:49that she can most certainly see your glow all the way from heaven.
01:24:53Well, if she is really looking down,
01:24:55then she'll be very glad to know that I found a much better man.
01:25:00And I bet she'd be so excited to know that I'm marrying a...
01:25:04A bodyguard?
01:25:06No.
01:25:07A fireman.
