00:01:08While you were busy dreaming about your wedding, I was here satisfying your fiancé.

00:13:43No, no you're not.
00:13:54Oh.
00:13:55Right, thank you.
00:14:01Come flip.
00:14:05Well, my husband, shall we go to your place?
00:14:08Or mine?
00:14:09I'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, but I wouldn't want you to get your hands dirty.
00:14:33I'll handle the moving.
00:14:34Okay.
00:14:35Well, this is my address.
00:14:39See you soon, husband.
00:14:43Dad, you can't make me sleep on the floor while you sleep with my mother on the Eiderdown Savoir Grand Emperor bed.
00:15:00No.
00:15:01That's not fair.
00:15:02No.
00:15:03Book me a suite right now.
00:15:05Are you delusional?
00:15:07Every decent hotel runs out of rooms.
00:15:11Oh, how about you go get yourself a room at the Motel 6?
00:15:15What?
00:15:16Noah!
00:15:18Honey, can I stay at your place?
00:15:22Look, either we solve this with Margaret, or we're gonna leave.
00:15:25No, no, 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 after the whole city burning down thing.
00:15:35Well, she's gonna have to come crawling back to me on her knees.
00:15:38Too bad you couldn't choose Caitlyn instead.
00:15:41No, Ravine, this is a business transaction.
00:15:44Steele marries Margaret, then becomes CEO of Foster Incorporated.
00:15:49My ex-wife's business.
00:15:51That's the perfect arrangement because Margaret supplies Steele with the money.
00:15:55Yeah.
00:15:56And Caitlyn supplies him with other benefits.
00:16:01They're like a tag team.
00:16:03A tag team?
00:16:08Let's get this clear once and for all.
00:16:13None of you are ever getting your hands on my mother's money.
00:16:17Ever.
00:16:18Not you.
00:16:19Not my sleazy, ass-for-sale stepsister.
00:16:22Not this cheating man whore.
00:16:23And not whoever the hell you are.
00:16:33For your information, I'm the mayor of this city.
00:16:37And you just called my son a man whore.
00:16:41You will apologize.
00:16:44Now, on your knees.
00:16:47Or I will crush you.
00:16:50No, I don't get on my knees.
00:16:54That's Caitlyn's specialty.
00:16:56But I am so sorry that I called your son a man whore.
00:17:00I should have called him a wannabe man whore.
00:17:03Because he only has one pitiful pickup line.
00:17:06My mother's the mayor.
00:17:08A mayor who let the reservoirs get so dry that the whole city could burn.
00:17:13You want me to apologize?
00:17:15You should be apologizing to the people of this city.
00:17:18One more word.
00:17:20Sit down and shut it.
00:17:22You will be a humble, obedient, respectful wife.
00:17:28Or you will never inherit that company.
00:17:31I'm afraid I can't marry Steele.
00:17:34Don't you know that polygamy is illegal in California?
00:17:38A woman can't have two husbands.
00:17:40What are you talking about?
00:17:43Well, you see, I'm already married.
00:17:47My paper beats your paper.
00:17:53What did you do?
00:17:54Grab some homeless guy to marry?
00:18:00Everyone knows you were engaged to the mayor's son.
00:18:04How dare you embarrass the mayor publicly?
00:18:08You were a liability to this company and you'll be replaced as a CEO.
00:18:11By me.
00:18:12I am the new CEO.
00:18:14That is not gonna happen.
00:18:17Hmm.
00:18:22I'll catch up with you guys in a little bit.
00:18:23I have to go clear out my room.
00:18:25Boss, you married a girl you don't even know?
00:18:28What were you thinking?
00:18:34Whitman, sometimes in life you crunch the numbers
00:18:38and read the market and leverage your assets.
00:18:42And then there's other times.
00:18:44You just listen to your heart.
00:18:46This is one of those times.
00:18:51There's my wife right now.
00:18:57Margaret.
00:18:58You're done.
00:19:00Who's that creep that's threatening her?
00:19:01That's Jackson Foster, your father-in-law.
00:19:04I did some research.
00:19:06Step ahead of you, boss.
00:19:07Well, I'm gonna put an end to this.
00:19:12Anyone can make a fake marriage license.
00:19:15Just admit you don't have a husband.
00:19:17Excuse me.
00:19:18Who the hell are you?
00:19:21I'm Margaret's husband.
00:19:23His dad.
00:19:25Is this some kind of joke?
00:19:26You're the joke?
00:19:27Of course it's you.
00:19:28You found some random fireman to marry.
00:19:32Oh, my God.
00:19:34How pathetic.
00:19:36How much does he make a year?
00:19:38Like 30,000 after taxes?
00:19:41You really lowered yourself, Margaret.
00:19:44A fireman?
00:19:46What's wrong with being a fireman?
00:19:49Poor.
00:19:54Stinky.
00:19:56These men save your lives and you bitches point your noses down at them?
00:20:00They are saving this city.
00:20:02Because she was too inept to do it.
00:20:04Keep it up.
00:20:06And I'll wipe that ugly look off of your face permanently.
00:20:10You know who I am.
00:20:13Move your fat asses.
00:20:15Go out there and do your goddamn jobs.
00:20:17And stop interrupting us.
00:20:21I'm sorry.
00:20:22We all know who you are.
00:20:25Miss do-nothing mayor.
00:20:27Why are you here sitting in a hotel lobby blabbing while the whole city is burning down?
00:20:32Who are you to challenge me?
00:20:35I can fire all of you.
00:20:39Hey, guys.
00:20:40We're being fired.
00:20:42Oh, wait a minute.
00:20:43You're not our chief, so you can't fire us.
00:20:46That's it.
00:20:47We're done talking to you idiots.
00:20:48As for you, you're gonna dump this pathetic loser and you're coming home with me.
00:20:54Touch her again and I will drop you where you stand.
00:20:58You and what army?
00:21:00This army.
00:21:01You owe us an apology.
00:21:03All of you.
00:21:05Apologize.
00:21:07Now.
00:21:08Oh.
00:21:09Poor firemen.
00:21:11I'm so sorry.
00:21:13Sorry about to get your asses kicked out of here.
00:21:17Security!
00:21:18Good move, Madam Mayor.
00:21:19And when this whole city burns down, how are you gonna explain to your people that 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.
00:21:40LA firefighters are our true heroes.
00:21:43I'm here to support them.
00:21:46That is very lovely.
00:21:48By the way, why are you here in a luxury hotel when the entire city is on fire?
00:21:54She was cutting a deal for a corporate takeover with a rich-ass CEO.
00:21:58Rich-ass CEO?
00:22:00Madam Mayor, is that true?
00:22:03And do you have a comment?
00:22:04As I said, I am here to support these brave men.
00:22:11Go firefighters!
00:22:13You know, many people are criticizing your complete and utter incompetence in the handling of the wildfires.
00:22:20In fact, people are pointing out the fact that you cut 17.5 million dollars from the fire department's budget right as the wildfires were starting.
00:22:29What is your response?
00:22:30I have no comment.
00:22:38No comment.
00:22:41You know, not all rich CEOs are assholes.
00:22:48Believe me, they're all aggressive narcissists. I've seen way too many of them.
00:22:52That's why I just want a regular guy like you.
00:22:55Okay. I don't think she's gonna like me if I tell her who I am.
00:22:58So, hey. So, how much did she pay you to be her fake husband?
00:23:03Oh, like a hundred bucks a day.
00:23:06Boy, you've really gotten desperate, huh?
00:23:09Hiring some nobody to pretend to be your husband just to cheat us.
00:23:13Just so you could comply to the will and take over the company.
00:23:18That's very clever.
00:23:19How many times do I have to tell you that this is my mother's company so it belongs to me?
00:23:26You'll never pull it off. Let's go.
00:23:28Chris, thank you for standing by me.
00:23:38You married me for a business deal and didn't tell me?
00:23:42It wasn't for a business deal. It was a lawyer thing. I had to get married by next week or else I wouldn't have been able to inherit my mother's company. But it...
00:23:51I'm such an idiot.
00:23:56What?
00:24:00It wasn't a fake marriage!
00:24:02Don't go!
00:24:04He's a fireman?
00:24:07That is hot.
00:24:09Oh, he's incredibly hot even though he's not an actual firefighter.
00:24:12She thinks you're hot and you saved her life. That's a pretty good start.
00:24:18So, he saved her life and then you told him you needed a husband for the inheritance and then he said...
00:24:23Actually, I didn't tell him that.
00:24:26Yeah, but I didn't hear that from her.
00:24:29I'm sure she was planning to.
00:24:31But there was a lot going on, you know? I almost died in a fire and then I escaped the hospital and the next thing you know I'm kissing a guy that I didn't know.
00:24:38And he kissed you back?
00:24:39Well, no. I mean, it was more than a kiss. I mean, it was like I was melting into him.
00:24:44She makes me feel like she's melting into me.
00:24:47I've never had anybody make me feel that way before.
00:24:50But then to find out that she wasn't being honest with me?
00:24:54You can still fix this, Margaret. Go talk to him.
00:24:57No!
00:24:59Talk to her.
00:25:01No. She was hiding things from me.
00:25:03What about you?
00:25:04I told her the truth that I am not a firefighter but was just to help her.
00:25:10What about the fact that you're the CEO of the Fortune 500 company with a net worth of like one point...
00:25:14Yeah, I didn't tell her that part, alright?
00:25:17What if I talk to him and he just shuts me out?
00:25:20She's afraid you'll shut her out.
00:25:22Do you want to shut her out? Really?
00:25:23What do you really want, Margaret?
00:25:26This is one of those moments in life where it's do or die.
00:25:29You need to open up to her!
00:25:30You need to open up to him!
00:25:31Thank You Guys! I appreciate it!
00:25:49Then we'll do our part.
00:25:51Boss! Boss!
00:25:53Oh!
00:25:54Hi Chris. I know you're busy with the fires. Hi, Margaret. I have something I need to tell you.
00:26:20And now is probably not the best time. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I know that you're upset with me. I didn't mean to keep things from you. Everything just started happening so fast. I don't expect you to forgive me but I needed you to know that I'm sorry.
00:26:37Wait. How did you find me? I was just driving around. I figured you'd be near the fires. Do not do that again.
00:26:59I... Just stay away, okay? Just stay away, okay? If you want to contact me, call me and tell me where to meet you but please let it be a safe place.
00:27:17You mean you want me to contact you? I certainly don't want you driving around in a red zone. It's far too dangerous.
00:27:24Right. I'll be more careful next time. Will there be a next time?
00:27:31Listen, I didn't exactly tell you everything about me either, okay?
00:27:36Wow, you were so mad that you took your ring off, huh?
00:27:41But when I saw you in that fire, and then afterwards, you kissed me.
00:27:48Okay, wait. Let's get one thing clear. I don't just go around kissing strange guys, okay?
00:27:52I know. Of course. Of course not. It was a special circumstance. I'm sure I'm never going to do anything like that in my life ever again.
00:28:02I know. It's just that my financial situation is not what...
00:28:06How do you do that? Do that thing where you make me melt into you?
00:28:28Me? I thought you did that. Isn't that what you do?
00:28:32No, it just happens. It's never happened to me before, but it only happens when I'm with you.
00:28:58We were talking about something. What was that again?
00:29:00Uh-huh. Money.
00:29:03Right. Money. Oh my god, who cares about money? I don't care if you're poor or in debt or whatever.
00:29:09Well, that's the thing. I'm not actually...
00:29:11I don't want a rich man. I mean, my father is one, and my stepmother, and you've seen them.
00:29:17They're like a cross between Rita Repulsive and Mr. Krabs.
00:29:21Okay, but you don't think every rich person is like that, right?
00:29:25Look, let's just leave it at this. You don't have money, and so what? I don't need all the details.
00:29:31Are you sure? You're not going to abandon me because I'm poor?
00:29:37You are the most handsome, smartest man that I have ever met. I will never abandon you. Let's just...
00:29:46They will be totally honest with each other from now on.
00:29:51Promise?
00:30:01What's next?
00:30:03What's your new home? My husband.
00:30:12I am a lucky guy.
00:30:14Come on in.
00:30:26Sorry about the space. My company's struggling a little bit, so...
00:30:30It's a bit modest, but... No, don't!
00:30:35Oh! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
00:30:37Oh!
00:30:43I'm sorry, um...
00:30:45I could fix your pipes for you so that it doesn't explode again.
00:30:49Sure, of course.
00:30:56This should have been a problem.
00:31:00Yeah.
00:31:05He's so hot.
00:31:15Should be all good.
00:31:21So.
00:31:23So.
00:31:27Mm.
00:31:31Oh.
00:31:35Oh, mm.
00:31:38Mm.
00:31:42Oh, mm.
00:31:45Ah.
00:31:51Oh.
00:31:53Oh, oh.
00:31:55Sorry, I've got to take it, it's work.
00:32:05I know.
00:32:07This better be important.
00:32:09That's a big move.
00:32:11I'll see what I can do.
00:32:13I'm so sorry.
00:32:15I've got to go to work.
00:32:16What?
00:32:17I know.
00:32:19Chris, what is it you actually do for a living?
00:32:25So, you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Moor Corp?
00:32:33Kind of.
00:32:33That's so cool.
00:32:35And it's going to stop the wildfires?
00:32:36We hope so.
00:32:40My team, our team, has been making some progress this week, but we're supposed to roll it out this weekend, so there's not much time.
00:32:50Jeez.
00:32:52I didn't know.
00:32:53You should have told me.
00:32:54I tried.
00:32:55Well, I'm sure you can do it, Chris.
00:32:57I'm rooting for you.
00:32:59You know, I'm not used to having someone at home rooting for me.
00:33:02It's new, but it's nice.
00:33:08I'll be going to be good.
00:33:09I'm going to be good.
00:33:10I'm going to be good.
00:33:10Okay.
00:33:10I'm moving for you.
00:33:27I'll have to go.
00:33:28It's nice.
00:33:59I'll be right there.
00:34:22Something wrong?
00:34:23What happened?
00:34:25What happened is...
00:34:26We did it.
00:34:30Oh!
00:34:35We did it.
00:34:38It worked.
00:34:39Margaret, this is going to save lives.
00:34:43Oh!
00:34:45Shoot.
00:34:46I have to go meet with the fire captain.
00:34:47This is the big test.
00:34:48We have to prove the suppression works.
00:34:50I'll see you later.
00:34:51Okay.
00:34:59Yes!
00:35:00The fires are going out.
00:35:02We are kicking this fire's ass.
00:35:04I mean, this is a breakthrough in science.
00:35:07We are making history, my friend.
00:35:08All right, guys.
00:35:11Grab every container we got.
00:35:13Bambi buckets, tsunami tanks.
00:35:15Get them filled and airborne.
00:35:17We're going to kill this fire now.
00:35:19Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:39No.
00:35:40We just tested a fire suppressant from Moore Corp.
00:35:43It's superior to that crap you've been sending us.
00:35:45L.A. is burning.
00:35:47We don't have time for your city hall bullshit.
00:35:49And I don't have time for your insubordination.
00:35:52How much kickback are you making from this, Madam Mayor?
00:35:55How many houses need to burn down in order for you to make a profit off of the bogus chemicals that don't even work?
00:36:00I gave you an order.
00:36:03Load my fire suppressant or you're fired.
00:36:05Good fire because I will not be responsible for your disaster.
00:36:11Your wish is granted.
00:36:14You're fired.
00:36:18This is the end of Chief Taylor.
00:36:20No.
00:36:21I think this is the end of Mayor Davis.
00:36:24Remember I said it.
00:36:26Get out of here and take this piece of trash with you.
00:36:35Okay.
00:36:37Our deal has changed.
00:36:39One third is not enough.
00:36:42I want a two third cut.
00:36:43I need to make some money off of this thing.
00:36:46Don't you look so glum?
00:36:48I'm going to make you CEO of Foster Inc.
00:36:52I got a new plan.
00:36:55Come on.
00:36:56The door won't open itself.
00:36:57Congratulations on your victory.
00:37:06I'm so proud of you.
00:37:07Almost victory.
00:37:10The mayor shut us down.
00:37:12She's been colluding with your dad.
00:37:15We're finished.
00:37:17She's the whole city hall to back her up.
00:37:19Hey, don't let them scare you.
00:37:22Bureaucrats like to live in these little protected hives.
00:37:24Once you crack those hives open, they scatter like roaches looking for the nearest drain pipe.
00:37:33Boss, I think your dad set up a board meeting behind your back for tomorrow.
00:37:39Copy that.
00:37:43Great.
00:37:43My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:46So it seems like we have a common enemy.
00:37:50And?
00:37:51And I'd like to do you the favor of destroying him.
00:37:55How?
00:37:56Do you want me to put you on the board of directors?
00:37:58No, no.
00:38:00I want to be your assistant.
00:38:02What?
00:38:03I'm going to be your boss?
00:38:06Mm-hmm.
00:38:07I've got an idea.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:10All right, let's make this fast.
00:38:18Margaret cannot be the CEO of this company.
00:38:20I don't care what the will says.
00:38:22Even the mayor wants Margaret out.
00:38:25Shouldn't Margaret be here to at least speak for herself?
00:38:28Don't be dense.
00:38:29Margaret will be out before she knows what hit her.
00:38:31And Caitlin will be in.
00:38:33Any board meeting without my approval is illegal.
00:38:37You are not authorized.
00:38:39She is fully authorized.
00:38:42Oh, what the hell?
00:38:43Not you again.
00:38:44This is a board meeting.
00:38:46Only for employees of Foster Incorporated.
00:38:49Right.
00:38:49Well, why don't you all help me welcome our newest employee?
00:38:53I put Chris on the payroll this morning.
00:38:55He's my new personal assistant.
00:38:58That's such...
00:38:59Assistant of what?
00:39:01Cleaning toilets?
00:39:03Oh, my God.
00:39:04Margaret, this is just so like you.
00:39:07Soling our company with your low-life husband.
00:39:11Well, I'm glad you acknowledged me as Margaret's husband.
00:39:14As that covers our first point today on our agenda.
00:39:17Section 12.3.C.
00:39:20Margaret Foster will inherit Foster, Inc.
00:39:23So long as she is married by the designated date.
00:39:27So, this means that Margaret is now the owner of Foster Incorporated.
00:39:33From now on, you all will call her Madam CEO.
00:39:38No.
00:39:39When are you going to get me one of those?
00:39:41When you get some class, don't power.
00:39:44We're going to take him out right now.
00:39:48It doesn't change anything.
00:39:49That's right.
00:39:50This company has been hemorrhaging money because of you, Margaret.
00:39:54We will not let you destroy it.
00:39:55And the only people who can take care of that is sitting right here in this room.
00:40:00Me.
00:40:01And my brilliant new man.
00:40:04Steel can turn this company around like that.
00:40:07Tell them, honey.
00:40:08Get rid of her and I'll double the company's revenue in four months.
00:40:14Backed by the mayor.
00:40:15My mom.
00:40:17100%.
00:40:17The mayor herself.
00:40:21That's exactly what we need.
00:40:23I like when you take control.
00:40:26Hold on.
00:40:27Margaret and I can also increase Foster Incorporated's revenues.
00:40:30He's going to double the revenue in four months.
00:40:36No one else can mention.
00:40:38Oh, we can.
00:40:40Chris, what are you saying?
00:40:42Stick with me, okay?
00:40:44What I'm about to say is a promise.
00:40:46A guarantee.
00:40:48Mr. Davis, you claim that you can double revenues in four months.
00:40:53Yes, I can.
00:40:54We will increase revenues tenfold in only one month.
00:41:02Ah, shit.
00:41:08In only one month.
00:41:12Ah, shit.
00:41:14No one can do that.
00:41:15I don't think you know how it works.
00:41:16It's crazy.
00:41:17We can't make that kind of promise.
00:41:19It's impossible.
00:41:20Margaret, follow my lead.
00:41:22Okay.
00:41:25This is ludicrous.
00:41:26Okay.
00:41:27How the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company revenue?
00:41:32Margaret is a master of outreach.
00:41:34She will set up a strategic partnership with the Moore Corporation.
00:41:38The Moore Corporation has operations in every countryman in the world.
00:41:42They won't even take a phone call from Margaret.
00:41:45Oh, but they already have.
00:41:47In fact, the manager has set up a meeting for Margaret tomorrow.
00:41:52Yeah, that's bullshit.
00:41:55Moore Corp would never work with a nobody like Margaret.
00:41:57You're delusional.
00:41:59Well, there is no harm to let her try.
00:42:02What?
00:42:04You'd better not disappoint us, Margaret.
00:42:06Okay, okay.
00:42:07Let's just make this straight here, okay?
00:42:08Let's...
00:42:09Margaret, you have one month to deliver Moore Corp.
00:42:14And make this company's revenue, what, tenfold, you said?
00:42:17One month.
00:42:19Or else the will is null and void.
00:42:22And you disappear.
00:42:26Forever.
00:42:28Agreed.
00:42:29That's right.
00:42:31All right.
00:42:31Oh, you dug your own grave, sis.
00:42:35One month from now, we're going to kick you to the gutter, where you belong.
00:42:39With your gutter husband.
00:42:43Got it.
00:42:51Chris, you can't make up stories like this.
00:42:54God, I'm going to lose my mother's company.
00:42:56Why did you tell them that they scheduled a meeting?
00:43:01Because I did.
00:43:04Moore Corp is expecting you.
00:43:06Tomorrow.
00:43:07They are?
00:43:08You're not joking?
00:43:10No.
00:43:11Oh, my God, Chris.
00:43:12That's amazing.
00:43:14By the way, his rings are great.
00:43:17They almost look real.
00:43:19Yeah.
00:43:20Almost.
00:43:21Oh.
00:43:26Calm down.
00:43:34We're not going to let your daughter beat you.
00:43:36There's no way she can beat me.
00:43:38Moore Corp will never work with a nobody like her, right?
00:43:42But what if she makes it happen?
00:43:43Then we'll stop her.
00:43:44How?
00:43:45What?
00:43:45Gina, I'm sending over the contact info for Christopher Moore, the CEO of Moore Corporation.
00:43:57Tell his office the mayor is coming to see him tomorrow.
00:44:01I expect him to be there.
00:44:05Either Mr. Moore does what I tell him to do, or I'll shut down his operations in the city.
00:44:12That'd be a multi-billion dollar loss for him.
00:44:19Christopher Moore guy.
00:44:21He's a real mystery man.
00:44:22No public appearances.
00:44:25And then let's not forget, we rejected his fire suppressant, so he's probably pretty pissed off at us.
00:44:31Don't worry about that.
00:44:34We'll find out who he is and how to get to him.
00:44:37That's my specialty.
00:44:42I've never met with the management of a global corporation before.
00:44:46Who knows?
00:44:47Maybe you have and you just didn't know it.
00:44:50I'd know.
00:44:51They're all assholes.
00:44:52You'd see them coming from a mile away.
00:44:58This PowerPoint isn't quite ready yet, I don't think.
00:45:04You need to grab their attention right away.
00:45:07And the flower you're writing, it's a business meeting, not a poetry club.
00:45:14I mean, have you heard of Bullet Boys?
00:45:17Okay, all right, all right.
00:45:19Well, why don't you show me what you would do?
00:45:20Okay.
00:45:21The presentation, right?
00:45:26I like the pink.
00:45:29I don't think they're going to like me very much.
00:45:31The CEO loves you.
00:45:35The CEO of Moor Corp?
00:45:37How would he love me?
00:45:38I've never even met the guy.
00:45:39Um, I mean, he knows you.
00:45:43I've mentioned you to him before.
00:45:46Whoa, Chris, you know the CEO?
00:45:49Who are you?
00:45:50I'm, I'm just a nobody.
00:45:53You're not a nobody.
00:45:54You're my husband.
00:45:55Somebody is great.
00:46:03It's just that these guys don't have the attention spans.
00:46:05Read your poetic.
00:46:06For the business proposal, we could do something along the lines of...
00:46:09Today, we are going to be talking about...
00:46:19Do you feel like you're giving a school presentation?
00:46:22We're playing Twister.
00:46:24I'm... dramatic fact.
00:46:26I'm pulling their attention.
00:46:27You are, exactly.
00:46:28It's acting.
00:46:29I'm talking about my presentation that I have.
00:46:39Good morning, boss.
00:46:46I mean, boxes of mints are on the table if you'd like to try one.
00:46:52He will show us to the office.
00:46:55I will show you to that office.
00:46:57What an honor.
00:46:58It's nice to meet you.
00:46:59I think I've heard your voice before.
00:47:01Oh, of course.
00:47:02We work closely together and...
00:47:05He's my...
00:47:09Manager!
00:47:10Ha!
00:47:13Do you feel ready?
00:47:14I think so.
00:47:15I need to just say what we need to do after my wife.
00:47:22We have an agreement to sign.
00:47:24She still doesn't know who you are?
00:47:27Copy that.
00:47:28I'll set up the meeting now.
00:47:29Oh, and the mayor wants to meet you.
00:47:31Of course she does.
00:47:32She's in the office now.
00:47:34What a surprise.
00:47:35Surprise!
00:47:36What's a surprise?
00:47:37Uh...
00:47:40Surprise!
00:47:41What's a surprise?
00:47:42Uh...
00:47:43Someone else wants a meeting, but they are just going to have to wait.
00:47:54We have been waiting here for half an hour.
00:47:57Yes.
00:47:58That's because you didn't make an appointment in advance.
00:48:01I am the mayor.
00:48:03I know who you are.
00:48:04We all do.
00:48:05My cousin lost her home in the fires.
00:48:08Don't you have more important things to do right now?
00:48:11How dare you?
00:48:13You are just a useless office girl.
00:48:18Now, tell Mr. Moore that I insist...
00:48:21Good morning, Mr. Moore.
00:48:22That's him.
00:48:23Oh my God.
00:48:24Can you believe they let common street trash in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:26Excuse me, why did you call him Mr. Moore?
00:48:28Mr. Moore?
00:48:29Oh my God.
00:48:30Can you believe they let common street trash in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:43Excuse me, why did you call him Mr. Moore?
00:48:48Mr. Moore?
00:48:49Mr. Moore?
00:48:50Mr. Moore?
00:48:51Mr. Moore?
00:48:52Oh, no, no.
00:48:53I was just saying, Mr. There's more.
00:48:55Like, more mints in the waiting room.
00:48:56What is with the mints here?
00:48:57We've got really good mints.
00:48:58Don't worry about it.
00:48:59Okay, I might have underestimated you, okay?
00:49:00But don't you get delusional.
00:49:01Whoever you're meeting has to be a low-level lackey.
00:49:02Let's get real.
00:49:03The mayor and I are meeting the CEO.
00:49:04Stall them.
00:49:05Which means you have zero chance of ever beating me.
00:49:08Got it?
00:49:09Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:10Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:49:15Stall them.
00:49:16Which means you have zero chance of ever beating me.
00:49:22Got it?
00:49:23Uh, Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:27Do you mind waiting here just a bit longer?
00:49:30Sorry your meeting got delayed.
00:49:32Well, mine is right on the dot.
00:49:34You see, my husband and I made a presentation together.
00:49:37It's very professional.
00:49:38I think Moore Corp is really going to like it.
00:49:43I'm taking three.
00:49:45Meant to be.
00:49:50How dare she?
00:49:51How dare she?
00:49:52Fine.
00:49:54We wait.
00:49:55But he better be here soon.
00:49:57I mean, of course.
00:49:59After all, you're the mayor.
00:50:02Um, thank you all for meeting with me today.
00:50:05Um, my name is Barbara Foster and I will...
00:50:15and I would love to work with you.
00:50:30Congratulations.
00:50:31He still isn't here?
00:50:34This is outrageous!
00:50:36Mr. Moore is on the way, but, you know, L.A. traffic.
00:50:41Plus, the fires make it even worse.
00:50:44Excuse me.
00:50:45Sorry to interrupt your indignation, but do you have a sheet protector that I could use?
00:50:55I just signed a contract and I don't want to get it stained or anything.
00:50:58Congratulations, Ms. Foster, of course.
00:51:00Yeah, okay, quit playing games.
00:51:02You didn't sign any contract.
00:51:04Well, unfortunately for you, I did.
00:51:08And it's for a hundred million dollar deal.
00:51:12Bullshit.
00:51:13About that.
00:51:16Looks like I will be the CEO of Foster Inc after all.
00:51:22You must be so proud of your daughter, Dad.
00:51:26Call me that!
00:51:28I will not let you do this.
00:51:31By the way, what are your friends showing up?
00:51:33Three, two, one.
00:51:36Madam Mayor, what do you have to say about the new fires that just broke out?
00:51:44Oh 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 Moor 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?
00:52:14Personal profits?
00:52:16Stock options.
00:52:19Oh, Mr. Foster, it's you.
00:52:22We got a tip that you have an under the table deal with Madam Mayor.
00:52:26And that your fire suppressant doesn't even work.
00:52:29Uh, that is complete nonsense.
00:52:32Complete nonsense, that is.
00:52:35This is a witch hunt.
00:52:37Madam Mayor, just one more.
00:52:39Ask her why she canned the fire chief while her son is collecting millions as a paid consultant for city contractors.
00:52:46So much corruption, so little time.
00:52:49Let's go.
00:52:51Madam Mayor, just one more. For the people.
00:52:54Last question about your personal records.
00:52:56Why aren't you out there trying to stop the fires?
00:53:02It is completely unfair for you to judge me.
00:53:05I have been working on this every day.
00:53:08One of our eyewitness team members has found a secret ledger showing the city is paying triple for the fire suppressant.
00:53:15You know, you were perfect in today's meeting.
00:53:18Yes, we did.
00:53:20Yeah, but the CEO, Mr. Moore, didn't show up.
00:53:23I wonder what he's like.
00:53:27Probably just some rich a-hole.
00:53:30That's what you said, remember?
00:53:32Yeah, but his company is actually doing good things.
00:53:36Kinda wanna meet him.
00:53:37I don't know if that's a great idea.
00:53:40He's a bachelor, you know?
00:53:42He, uh, might try to steal you from me.
00:53:46Oh, that is not gonna happen.
00:53:48Sweet.
00:53:50I felt you supporting me today, Chris.
00:53:53All day.
00:53:55I haven't felt that support since my mom passed away.
00:53:57I'm sorry you had to go through that.
00:54:00I know it must have been a very dark time.
00:54:03She was my rock.
00:54:05I can be the rock of your life now.
00:54:10I wanna be the person you lean on when you need it.
00:54:13You know, sometimes I just wanna rip your clothes off and drag you to bed, and other times I just wanna get closer and feel your heart beating next to mine.
00:54:28My heart is racing.
00:54:34For you.
00:54:57Girl, it's our time.
00:55:00Just you and I.
00:55:02Don't, I don't hide.
00:55:05No.
00:55:07I'll do it right.
00:55:10We got all night.
00:55:12I'll take you so high.
00:55:16Yeah.
00:55:18Baby, let me love you.
00:55:20Let me love you.
00:55:22Baby, let me love you.
00:55:28You killed it, Margaret.
00:55:31You're a rock star.
00:55:33We're with you, Margaret.
00:55:35Always.
00:55:37You see? Everyone's with you now.
00:55:39No one supports you now.
00:55:41Because this is a bogus agreement.
00:55:44It's a publicity stunt.
00:55:46You guys just see?
00:55:48Like anyone's gonna give her a hundred million dollars.
00:55:51Oh my gosh.
00:55:57You're a rock star.
00:55:58You're a rock star.
00:55:59You're a rock star.
00:56:01You're a rock star.
00:56:03You're a rock star.
00:56:05Put me through to finance.
00:56:07We need to make a bank transfer.
00:56:09Once they find out that Misa present is better than more companies,
00:56:13they're gonna cut Margaret off like that.
00:56:17Oh, so uh, who are you supporting now?
00:56:22Are you sure Mora Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:34Are you sure Mora Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:39A hundred percent.
00:56:41Why would they shell out cash to someone like that?
00:56:42Because a down payment of thirty million dollars just landed in our corporate account.
00:56:50From Mora Corp.
00:56:52Oh, wrong again, Dad.
00:56:56Seems like you're making a real hammer out of that.
00:56:59Just you wait.
00:57:01Once they see that Misa present is superior,
00:57:04all of this is gonna be all gone.
00:57:07Margaret, we want you to know that we support you and we've been on your side all along.
00:57:13Yes.
00:57:15I really appreciate that.
00:57:19Seems like we have some big things to do.
00:57:26Today's the day that we prove our suppression is superior once and for all.
00:57:31Get those stupid reporters off our backs.
00:57:33And as the new fire chief, you know what your job is, right?
00:57:39Fight the fires?
00:57:42No.
00:57:44Make sure you follow my commands.
00:57:50It's them.
00:57:52How did you know they were gonna be here?
00:57:55Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:00Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:01Hey, I'm just a regular guy.
00:58:05That's what you said.
00:58:06That's why you like me.
00:58:08Remember?
00:58:09Well, for a regular guy, you sure do have a lot of inside information.
00:58:12I just know they ordered a chopper today.
00:58:14Off record, and I wanna know why.
00:58:17There it is.
00:58:18There it is.
00:58:30The fires are getting worse. Holy shit!
00:58:33Oh.
00:58:35No!
00:58:36That's not fire suppressant!
00:58:38It's more like fire starter!
00:58:40Call the chopper and tell him to stop dropping it!
00:58:44Oh my god!
00:58:46It's too late.
00:58:48The payloads have all been dropped.
00:58:50Good God! It's coming our direction!
00:58:52You're an idiot!
00:58:54If this reaches us, everything here is gonna blow sky high!
00:58:57Oh!
00:58:59Oh!
00:59:01No, but how do half-ports like this get control of the city?
00:59:04We've gotta do something about this.
00:59:05No!
00:59:07I'll figure something out, but first I gotta get you to safety. Come on.
00:59:10Okay.
00:59:11Come on.
00:59:12Okay.
00:59:16For now, I just want you to stay here and be careful.
00:59:19You need to be careful too, Chris. You're not fireproof, you know.
00:59:25What are you doing here?
00:59:27A step ahead of you. I thought you might need my help.
00:59:30Okay. Thank you. Yeah, I've got a few things you can do for me.
00:59:34You've got stuff to do for him?
00:59:37But I thought he was your manager.
00:59:38He is, uh, but the thing is, um...
00:59:42I, I'm a, I'm a, as your manager, I have to look after my employees.
00:59:47Why, I might even give you a raise next year, Chris.
00:59:53Just stay here. Keep a watch on the fire alerts, okay?
00:59:58I will call my people, our people, to protect you.
01:00:05Tomorrow.
01:00:09Call Caps on fire and have them come to Margaret's house immediately.
01:00:12Really? You didn't even do that for your own house, which is worth like a hundred million dollars.
01:00:16Just do it, okay?
01:00:18Okay.
01:00:19I'm only saying her house is worth like half a million. The cost of the service is probably...
01:00:24It's not always about money, Whitman.
01:00:27Okay. Call them right now.
01:00:29You're paying the bill. It's gonna be an expensive call.
01:00:32Fire Protection Service? Where'd they come from?
01:00:45You screwed this up!
01:00:51I could bankrupt you like that!
01:00:54Hold on. I know how to fix all of this with just two words.
01:00:58More, Corb.
01:01:00Okay?
01:01:01We buy all their fire suppressant.
01:01:03You know, very hush-hush.
01:01:05And then you get all the credit for it.
01:01:08How?
01:01:09They blocked our calls.
01:01:10We can't get to them.
01:01:11Yeah, we can't.
01:01:13But Margaret can.
01:01:14And she is still my daughter.
01:01:22My critics are politically motivated.
01:01:26We have the fires completely under control.
01:01:30This is bullshit.
01:01:31I grew up in Los Angeles.
01:01:32I played in these parks and in these playgrounds.
01:01:35Not to watch it all burn down because these fools won't use a fire suppressant that works.
01:01:48Margaret!
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.
01:02:05But, you know, I wonder if it's important.
01:02:07It is.
01:02:09Chris, my father called.
01:02:12He wants something.
01:02:15My father called.
01:02:17He wants something.
01:02:19The answer is no.
01:02:20If there's something that your dad wants, it's probably bad.
01:02:23Maybe not this time.
01:02:25He 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.
01:02:38Right.
01:02:39Mr. Moore is a very private man and 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, you have to go through lots of protocols.
01:02:53That takes time.
01:02:55We don't have time.
01:02:57Exactly.
01:02:59You see, Mr. Foster's company is already an approved vendor.
01:03:04And so...
01:03:05So we sell to Mr. Foster.
01:03:07He sells to the city.
01:03:09We can't let anyone know.
01:03:10Do I have that right?
01:03:12You are fast, Mr. Moore.
01:03:15So, what's your price?
01:03:17Free.
01:03:19But you have to answer this one question.
01:03:21Why are you doing this?
01:03:22Well, we were just concerned for the city.
01:03:28Cut the bullshit.
01:03:30Speak to me straight or get out.
01:03:34Okay.
01:03:37Okay, let's put our cards on the table.
01:03:43We'll put our cards on the table.
01:03:44We're doing this because our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:03:51It made the fires worse.
01:03:54If the public finds out, we're screwed.
01:03:57So, we'd like to use the Moore Corps fire suppressant.
01:04:02But you can't tell anyone.
01:04:05They have to believe we made it.
01:04:06If you agree, I will guarantee permission of the shopping mall you applied for in downtown LA.
01:04:16Deal?
01:04:19Deal.
01:04:21We'll deliver 2,000 tons of the suppressant this afternoon.
01:04:25But you must deploy it immediately.
01:04:28Fine.
01:04:31Just to confirm, what's the price?
01:04:33Zero.
01:04:37You don't pay a penny.
01:04:40Well, that sounds like a win-win.
01:04:43Cut the formalities.
01:04:45We're done here.
01:04:52Okay, thanks.
01:04:53This guy's a prime idiot.
01:04:58Give me chips for free.
01:05:00He's a billionaire, you fool.
01:05:03He doesn't care about small money.
01:05:06I knew he wanted to build that mall.
01:05:08That's how I got him.
01:05:10I don't understand.
01:05:12Why did you give it to them for free?
01:05:14Because I got exactly what I wanted.
01:05:17Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:05:20It made the fire worse.
01:05:22It's been an hour.
01:05:24Why haven't we gotten any word?
01:05:25It's been 20 minutes.
01:05:26The pilots need time to confirm.
01:05:27Mrs. Mayor, it worked.
01:05:28It's like a miracle.
01:05:29Moor Corp Suppressant is-
01:05:30Don't say Moor Corp.
01:05:31No one is to know where it's from.
01:05:33As far as the world is concerned, it's our suppressant.
01:05:37Got it?
01:05:39No one is to know where it's from.
01:05:41As far as the world is concerned, it's our suppressant.
01:05:43Got it?
01:06:00Yes.
01:06:02Got it.
01:06:03No problem.
01:06:05You know how much money this is going to make us?
01:06:08You are going to be known as the New York Times.
01:06:12as the mayor who saved the city. And you are gonna win the next election by a
01:06:22landslide. Exactly. Gina, arrange a press conference for tomorrow. We're gonna let
01:06:35everyone know I saved Los Angeles. Every news outlet saying the same thing. It's not a
01:06:50fluke. The first time in a week the fires are retreating. What about the
01:06:56suppressant? They've dropped all of it and they want more. The winds have even died
01:07:01down. It's like nature is on our side now. Finally. Finally. The mayor has called a
01:07:14press conference. You know she's gonna take credit for stopping the fires. I know
01:07:19she's gonna try. Oh, what about Margaret? This is not good boss. She really thinks I
01:07:26run more corn. I don't know why. You are entirely unconvincing. Totally convincing.
01:07:33What you need is some acting classes. Don't you think it's time to let her in on
01:07:39this? As a matter of fact, I've got it all planned out for tonight. One step ahead of
01:07:46your boss. Margaret, I have to tell you something. It's my father trying to
01:07:53sabotage me again. You know, I'm not afraid of him. No, it's not like that. It's about
01:07:58your husband.
01:08:09My husband, he is totally overprotective. You know that I had to convince him that
01:08:14it was safe enough for me to come into my own office. Margaret, it's about those
01:08:19rings.
01:08:29I have a surprise for you tonight, sweetheart. Two dozen fresh roses. Noki de la luna. Oh, and I can
01:08:39finally tell you those rings on your finger are real.
01:08:41They are a little ridiculous. I mean, who has diamonds this size?
01:08:48Well, that's the thing. Some people do have diamonds that size. There's a name for
01:08:54those people. Billionaires. Isabel, what are you talking about?
01:08:59Margaret, I've got something to tell you. Now, I would have told you sooner, but you hate rich
01:09:06people so much that I was afraid you would get your guillotine out.
01:09:10How much do you know about Moore Corp CEO Christopher Moore?
01:09:15He's some rich guy?
01:09:18Who never met with you because he doesn't make public appearances.
01:09:21Yeah, so?
01:09:24Do you remember that private investigator we used to look into that auditing glitch last year?
01:09:29Good God, Isabel, would you just tell me what you're talking about?
01:09:32I asked the PI to trace known records of Moore. There was very little there, but he did find
01:09:39one tidbit. Moore purchased some jewelry.
01:09:43Okay, yeah. Rich guys buy jewelry, so what?
01:09:47So, this is what he bought. Look familiar?
01:09:53Yeah, those look like my rings. So, he bought the real ones and Chris bought copies.
01:09:59Well, this is the ledger entry. Look at the date. He bought these in LA the same day that
01:10:06Chris gave you those.
01:10:14So that means my husband is...
01:10:16Christopher Moore?!
01:10:18So, you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Moore Corp?
01:10:23Kind of.
01:10:24Margaret is a master of outreach. She will set up a strategic partnership with the Moore Corporation.
01:10:30Good morning, Mr. Moore.
01:10:31I trusted him! How many times am I going to be lied to in my life?
01:10:35Margaret, your husband's a billionaire. Who cares about you?
01:10:40Every woman in LA wants to be you!
01:10:42No! No, this is so wrong!
01:10:49Okay.
01:10:51Cash was in the oven.
01:10:52Salads in the fridge.
01:10:54Jean-Paulard Beaujolais on the chill.
01:11:04Now, I just have to pray that you'll listen to me with an open mind.
01:11:07Margaret, I have something to tell you. Margaret, I have something to tell you. Margaret, I...
01:11:26Don't say another word. Just leave.
01:11:33You're a liar!
01:11:37I am proud to announce that the fires that have been ravaging this city are now extinguished.
01:11:58These fires are out because of our brave mayor, Michelle Davis.
01:12:03And I just want to say thank you to the firefighters.
01:12:08I am the one who put out these fires.
01:12:14Girl, you really kicked a billionaire out of your house?
01:12:18He lied to me. I've had enough betrayal for an entire lifetime.
01:12:22I'm sure he had his reasons. He didn't mean to hurt you, Margaret.
01:12:26Yeah, well, it hurts anyway.
01:12:28And I would like to acknowledge myself for the courage, the vision, and the leadership that great leaders show when they're leading.
01:12:45Cringe.
01:12:46You cannot overstate how stupid she is.
01:12:52Can I just say one more thing?
01:12:54No, you cannot.
01:12:55The fire suppressant that put out the fires was created by me and deployed at my command.
01:13:07Yes, yes, yes, thank you.
01:13:11It's me who saved LA.
01:13:14Support me.
01:13:16Vote for me.
01:13:17Y'all know you can trust me.
01:13:23God bless.
01:13:26Ladies and gentlemen.
01:13:28Excuse me.
01:13:34Everything that you have just heard is a fairytale.
01:13:38Fiction.
01:13:40A lie.
01:13:42Oh my goodness.
01:13:44Is that your billionaire husband?
01:13:51The mayor has been lying to you all.
01:13:54Pay no attention to this man.
01:13:56Security!
01:13:57Have him removed.
01:13:59Y'all pay no attention to this.
01:14:01There's nothing to see here.
01:14:03The firemen are the true heroes who saved this city.
01:14:06The mayor has time and time again tried to stop them.
01:14:09That is bullshit!
01:14:11Security!
01:14:12Do your jobs!
01:14:14No, no, no. Let him speak.
01:14:16It's a free country.
01:14:17Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:19Yeah, we want a statement.
01:14:20Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:21Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:22Mayor Davis, why are you afraid of this man?
01:14:24Are you hiding something?
01:14:26Of course not.
01:14:28She's afraid of me because she knows that I can tell you all right now what actually happened.
01:14:32And why should we listen to you?
01:14:33Because the fire suppression that actually put out the fires was supplied by Moor Court.
01:14:41And I am the CEO of Moor Court.
01:14:46I am Christopher Moore.
01:14:48Well, he's not hiding his identity anymore.
01:14:51He's taking on the whole city.
01:14:53Instead of trying to put the fires out, the mayor and her collaborators were profiting off of them.
01:14:59I want to watch this live.
01:15:02You coming?
01:15:04No.
01:15:10Yes? Hold on, Isabel.
01:15:12My company has been trying to assist the firefighters.
01:15:19He's the CEO of Moor Court?
01:15:22Why didn't you tell me, you dumbass?
01:15:24If we don't stop him, we're all screwed.
01:15:26Then do something to stop him.
01:15:28The mayor threatened us and time and time again tried to get in our way.
01:15:32That is not true.
01:15:33Look, I received a medal for all of my hard work in putting out those fires.
01:15:40I wouldn't have given myself this medal if I didn't deserve it.
01:15:44Mr. Moore, I think there's been a little misunderstanding.
01:15:48Can I speak to you privately?
01:15:50The mayor wanted me to remind you about the permission of the shopping mall.
01:15:56Oh, of course, that reminds me.
01:16:00Whitman!
01:16:02Let's play them that video we brought.
01:16:10Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:16:13It made the fires worse.
01:16:15If the public finds out, we are screwed.
01:16:17Why are you hiding the truth from the citizens in your own city?
01:16:23Okay, this is a complete fabrication.
01:16:27I mean, look at that. It's an AIGC deepfake.
01:16:31I have something to say about that.
01:16:41No.
01:16:43No!
01:16:44This man has no business here.
01:16:45He was fired for dereliction of duty.
01:16:49Officers! Remove him!
01:16:55Are you going to stop?
01:17:00No search.
01:17:02We'll clear the way.
01:17:04Everyone, make way for Chief Taylor and his men.
01:17:07They're heroes.
01:17:13They're heroes!
01:17:14Stop then!
01:17:15What?
01:17:16That's an order!
01:17:18Now, uh...
01:17:19You gotta stop!
01:17:20You guys can't come up here.
01:17:22This is...
01:17:23This is a violation.
01:17:24Don't you touch me!
01:17:29We want Chief Taylor reinstated.
01:17:32Yeah!
01:17:33That's right!
01:17:35Taylor! Taylor! Taylor! Taylor! Taylor! Taylor!
01:17:39Shut up!
01:17:42All of you are fired!
01:17:44No!
01:17:45You can't do that!
01:17:47Let him speak!
01:17:50Stop touching me!
01:17:52Ladies and gentlemen, the reason I was dismissed is because I refused to use the mayor's defective fire suppressant.
01:18:01You can't prove that!
01:18:03Actually, I can.
01:18:05All the data is in these documents.
01:18:10They include sworn testimony from the pilots who were eyewitnesses.
01:18:15Mayor Davis, this is a huge scandal.
01:18:18You should resign!
01:18:20Get out of here!
01:18:22No!
01:18:23Listen to me!
01:18:24Stop it!
01:18:25Stop it!
01:18:26Stop it!
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!
