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.

00:02:29I can't.
00:02:41This is my wedding dress, honey.
00:02:43Promise me that you'll wear it when you get married.
00:02:47That way, I know no matter what happens,
00:02:50I'll be there with you on your wedding day.
00:02:54Heart to heart.
00:02:55I promise, Mommy.
00:02:58I love you.
00:03:02Oh, no.
00:03:04I might not get to wear this wedding dress.
00:03:07This is my fiancee, the cheating asshole.
00:03:09Oh my God.
00:03:13I gotta get out of here.
00:03:15Oh my God.
00:03:22Ah!
00:03:23Ah!
00:03:26Boss, a private helicopter's 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.
00:03:31What?
00:03:32No, boss.
00:03:33Come on.
00:03:34L.A.'s an inferno.
00:03:35Everyone's in danger.
00:03:36I know.
00:03:36That's why I've gotta stay.
00:03:38Goddamn wildfires.

00:04:17Is that bitch still in there?
00:04:20What ever.
00:04:20Oh no!
00:04:21Oh, no! We... Someone has to help us!
00:04:25I can't lose my custom-built home!
00:04:28Help! Help!
00:04:30Help!
00:04:33Guys, you've got to evacuate and get out of here!
00:04:36Evacuate? The minimal appraisal value is 10 million!
00:04:42You can't just fire her now!
00:04:44Okay, clear out! Is someone still in there?
00:04:46Not just my stupid sister. Who cares about her?
00:04:50What's her name?
00:04:52Margaret, but you can just call her Loser.
00:04:54Wait, if you're going inside, I have 10 Hermes bags.
00:04:58They're for a kid.
00:05:00You have to save the flea!
00:05:02Okay!
00:05:03They'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?
00:05:17Oh, no!
00:05:21Oh, no!
00:05:23What?
00:05:38Margaret, can you hear me?
00:05:41You're going to be okay, all right?
00:05:45All right?
00:05:46Thanks.
00:05:51Congrats on your wedding.
00:05:54It belonged to my mom.
00:05:56That's great.
00:05:58Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:06:00Hold on to me, okay?
00:06:04Get out of here.
00:06:12Come on.
00:06:15Come on!
00:06:29Where are my designer pants?
00:06:31You guys need to take her to the hospital right now.
00:06:33You saved her? Why?
00:06:35She doesn't even live in this column.
00:06:37If you all don't take her to safety,
00:06:39you'll all be charged with attempted murder.
00:06:40Don't talk to me like that, you cringy firefighter.
00:06:44Fine! You take her!
00:06:48Stop touching her!
00:06:50Then how am I supposed to carry her?
00:06:52I don't know!
00:07:08Cancel the engagement. Are you out of your mind?
00:07:10Are you out of your mind?
00:07:14I almost die in a fire and that's all you have to say to me?
00:07:17His mother is mayor of this whole city. She can open doors with a wave of her hand.
00:07:21I don't care if she can fart rainbows with a wave of her butt.
00:07:25Oh, and did they tell you that he's been fucking Caitlyn?
00:07:29Watch your mouth!
00:07:31Tell her to watch what she sticks between her legs!
00:07:34Don't you dare talk to me like that!
00:07:36I should have let you die in that house so you can burn in hell!
00:07:40You tried to leave me there, remember? You think I don't know that?
00:07:43Cut the crap! You're gonna marry Steele and you're gonna make him happy.
00:07:48No, I'm not a tramp who sells my body to men for money.
00:07:52That's more Caitlyn style.
00:07:59You know what? Dad, you can climb into bed with the Wicked Witch of the West every night.
00:08:04That's your business. But I will not sleep with some slimy-ass bottom-feeder to make you happy.
00:08:10Well, then you can kiss your inheritance goodbye. I guess I'll be taking over your mother's company.
00:08:15She left it to me.
00:08:17Only if you're married by next week. And what are you going to do if Steele dumps you?
00:08:22Just look at you! You can't even get out of bed!
00:08:26Oh, gosh, Raveena. It looks like I can get out of bed after all.
00:08:33And you can't stop me!
00:08:36Are you high? Where the hell do you think you're going?
00:08:40To find a husband.
00:08:44To find a husband.
00:08:56And I know just where to find him.
00:08:59Stop right now, young lady!
00:09:01Stop her!
00:09:08A $50 million donation? This is a godsend.
00:09:12Look, man, you guys are the real heroes. I was just happy I could help.
00:09:17Well, I appreciate it. I actually got you a gift.
00:09:23Come on, Raveena. I didn't have to do that.
00:09:30Chief Tanner, this is perfect. Thank you. Sincerely.
00:09:46Who did it to me? Where is he?
00:09:49Who did what to you?
00:09:51He saved my life yesterday.
00:09:56No. No. Not you either.
00:10:00No, you're not the one.
00:10:02He's not here.
00:10:08What about that guy?
00:10:11You're... Let's go.
00:10:13Excuse me for a second, sir.
00:10:16It's you.
00:10:18I'm sorry, miss?
00:10:20You're the guy.
00:10:22I think you might have a good idea.
00:10:30Whoa. Slow down.
00:10:33It's me. Margaret.
00:10:37I know I'm silly. I shouldn't have come here. I just...
00:10:40I have nowhere else to go.
00:10:42I shouldn't have come here. I just...
00:10:44I have nowhere else to go. No one to trust.
00:10:47I lost everything that I had.
00:10:50Hey. It's okay. You're safe now.
00:10:55You say you were.
00:11:12Margaret.
00:11:14I knew you'd remember me.
00:11:16I'm sorry. I didn't recognize you.
00:11:28Oh, man.
00:11:30Oh, my word.
00:11:32I don't know what he's going to do after that.
00:11:34I don't know what he's going to do after that.
00:11:36I don't know what he's going to do after that.
00:11:39I don't know what he's going to do after that.
00:11:45Okay. I 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. Agreed?
00:11:55Yeah. Sure.
00:11:57And my second request is...
00:12:00marry me.
00:12:02What?
00:12:03I'll explain all the details later, but we gotta go right now.
00:12:07Hey, if he doesn't want to, I'm available.
00:12:09Yeah, me too. I'm here all day.
00:12:11When it comes to hot women, nobody handles them like firemen.
00:12:14We're specialists.
00:12:16Whoa. Easy. Down, down, boys.
00:12:19Did any of the three of you hear me say no?
00:12:22Let's go.
00:12:23Why couldn't that happen to me?
00:12:27We'll have a big ceremony later.
00:12:29For now, this makes it official.
00:12:32By the way, how do you feel about kids?
00:12:35I feel great about kids.
00:12:38When I was a little girl, my mom always told me
00:12:40to always bring nice pajamas to bed. You know why?
00:12:43Why?
00:12:45In case of an emergency, if a fireman came in,
00:12:48she said, you never know.
00:12:50You might become her husband.
00:12:52I'm Margaret.
00:12:54I'm sorry I haven't had the chance to tell you this yet,
00:12:56but I'm not actually a firefighter.
00:12:58I just happened to be there and was able to help that day.
00:13:02But you saved my life and 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...
00:13:31Okay, I can tell her later.
00:13:36You know, we can't just kiss every single time
00:13:39we look into each other's eyes.
00:13:41You're right.
00:13:44No, no, you're not.
00:13:56Right, thank you.
00:14:01Come on.
00:14:05Well, my husband, shall we go to your place or mine?
00:14:09I'm... I'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.
00:14:23I can't let her know I'm staying in the W Hotel.
00:14:25It's too fancy.
00:14:28That's so kind and sweet of you,
00:14:31but I wouldn't want you to get your hands dirty.
00:14:34I'll handle the moving.
00:14:36Okay.
00:14:38Well, this is 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.
00:15:00That's not fair. No.
00:15:02Book 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? No!
00:15:17Honey, can I stay at your place?
00:15:21Look, either we solve this with Margaret
00:15:24or we're gonna leave.
00:15:26No, no, no, no, no. We'll fix it.
00:15:28She will marry you.
00:15:30Excuse her. She'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 on her knees.
00:15:38Too bad you couldn't choose Caitlin instead.
00:15:41No, Ravina, this is a business transaction.
00:15:44Steel marries Margaret,
00:15:46then becomes CEO of Foster Incorporated,
00:15:49my ex-wife's business.
00:15:51That's the perfect arrangement
00:15:53because Margaret supplies Steel 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 on 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.
00:16:33For your information,
00:16:36I'm the mayor of this city,
00:16:38and you just called my son a man-whore.
00:16:42You will apologize.
00:16:45Now, on your knees,
00:16:48or I will crush you.
00:16:52No, I don't get on my knees.
00:16:55That's Caitlin's specialty.
00:16:57But I am so sorry that I called your son a man-whore.
00:17:01I should have called him a wannabe man-whore
00:17:04because he only has one pitiful pickup line.
00:17:07My mother's the mayor.
00:17:09A mayor who let the reservoirs get so dry
00:17:12that the whole city could burn.
00:17:14You want me to apologize?
00:17:16You should be apologizing to the people of this city.
00:17:19One more word.
00:17:21Sit down and shut up.
00:17:24You will be a humble, obedient, respectful wife.
00:17:29You will never inherit that company.
00:17:32I'm afraid I can't marry Steele.
00:17:35Don'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?
00:17:44Well, you see, I'm already married.
00:17:51My 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.
00:18:04How dare you embarrass the mayor publicly?
00:18:08You are a liability to this company,
00:18:10and you will be replaced as the CEO by me.
00:18:13I am the new CEO.
00:18:15That is not going to 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?
00:18:29What 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 you just listen to your heart.
00:18:46This is one of those times.
00:18:51There's my wife right now.
00:18:57Harvard, you're done.
00:19:00Who's that creep that's threatening her?
00:19:02That's Jackson Foster, your father-in-law.
00:19:05I did some research. Step ahead of you, boss.
00:19:08Well, I'm going to 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. Who the hell are you?
00:19:21I'm Margaret's husband, her dad.
00:19:24Is this some kind of joke?
00:19:26You get the joke?
00:19:28Of course it's you.
00:19:30You found some random fireman to marry.
00:19:33Oh, thank you.
00:19:35How pathetic.
00:19:37How much does he make a year?
00:19:39Like 30,000 after taxes?
00:19:42You've really lowered yourself, Margaret.
00:19:45A fireman?
00:19:48What's wrong with being a fireman?
00:19:52Poor.
00:19:54Stinky.
00:19:56These men save your lives and you bitches point your noses down at them?
00:20:00They're saving this city because 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.
00:20:11You 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?
00:20:23We all know who you are, Miss Do-Nothing Mayor.
00:20:28Why are you here sitting in a hotel lobby blabbing while 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.
00:20:48We're done talking to you idiots.
00:20:49As for you, you're going to dump this pathetic loser and 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.
00:21:14Sorry about to get your asses kicked out of here.
00:21:17Security!
00:21:23Good move, Madam Mayor.
00:21:25And when this whole city burns down, how are you going to 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.
00:21:36Madam 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.
00:21:47That 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?
00:22:01Madam Mayor, is that true?
00:22:03And do you have a comment?
00:22:05As I said, I am here to support these brave men.
00:22:11Go, firefighters!
00:22:14You know, many people are criticizing your complete and utter incompetence
00:22:18in the handling of the wildfires.
00:22:20In fact, people are pointing out the fact that you cut $17.5 million
00:22:25from the fire department's budget right as the wildfires were starting.
00:22:29What is your response?
00:22:36I have no comment.
00:22:41No comment.
00:22:45You know, not all rich CEOs are assholes.
00:22:48Believe me, they're all aggressive narcissists.
00:22:51I've seen way too many of them.
00:22:53That's why I just want a regular guy like you.
00:22:55Okay, I don't think she's going to like me if I tell her who I am.
00:22:59That's right.
00:23:00So, how much did she pay you to be her fake husband?
00:23:04Well, like a hundred bucks a day.
00:23:07Boy, you've really gotten desperate, huh?
00:23:09Hiring some nobody to pretend to be your husband just to cheat us?
00:23:14Just so you could comply to the will and take over the company?
00:23:18That's very clever.
00:23:20How many times do I have to tell you that 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 and 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 or else I wouldn't have been able to inherit my mother's company.
00:23:53I'm such an idiot.
00:23:57What?
00:24:00It wasn't a fake marriage.
00:24:03Don't go.
00:24:05He's a fireman?
00:24:07That is hot.
00:24:10He's incredibly hot, even 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.
00:24:18So, he saved your 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.
00:24:27Yeah, 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.
00:24:33I almost died in a fire and then I escaped the hospital and the next thing you know I'm kissing a guy that I don't even know.
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!
00:24:59Talk to her.
00:25:01No. She was hiding things from me.
00:25:03What about you?
00:25:05I told her the truth, that I am not a firefighter but was just a helper.
00:25:10What about the fact that you're the CEO of the Fortune 500 company with a net worth of like 1.8 billion?
00:25:15I 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?
00:25:24What do you really want, Margaret?
00:25:27This is one of those moments in life where it's do or die.
00:25:30You need to open up to him.
00:25:40Thank you, guys. I appreciate it.
00:25:43Let's do our part.
00:25:45Boss! Boss!
00:25:47Boss!
00:25:48Huh?
00:26:11Hi, Chris.
00:26:14I know you're busy with the fires.
00:26:17Hi, Margaret.
00:26:19I have something I need to tell you.
00:26:21Now is probably not the best time.
00:26:23I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.
00:26:25I know that you're upset with me.
00:26:27I didn't mean to keep things from you.
00:26:29Everything just started happening so fast.
00:26:32I don't expect you to forgive me, but...
00:26:35I needed you to know that I'm sorry.
00:26:40I'm sorry.
00:26:51Wait.
00:26:54How did you find me?
00:26:56I was just driving around. I figured you'd be near the fires.
00:26:59Do not do that again.
00:27:01I...
00:27:02Just stay away, okay?
00:27:06If you want to contact me,
00:27:08call me and tell me where to meet you,
00:27:10but please let it be a safe place.
00:27:12You mean you want me to contact you?
00:27:14I certainly don't want you driving around in a red zone.
00:27:17It's far too dangerous.
00:27:19Right.
00:27:20I'll be more careful next time.
00:27:23Will there be a next time?
00:27:26Listen, I did exactly tell you
00:27:29that I'm sorry.
00:27:32Listen.
00:27:34I didn't exactly tell you everything about me either, okay?
00:27:37Wow, you were so mad that you took your ring off, huh?
00:27:42But when I saw you in that fire,
00:27:45and then afterwards,
00:27:48and you kissed me...
00:27:49Okay, wait. Let's get one thing clear.
00:27:51I don't just go around kissing strange guys, okay?
00:27:54I know. Of course.
00:27:56Of course not.
00:27:57It was a special circumstance.
00:28:00I'm sure I'm never going to do anything like that in my life ever again.
00:28:03I know. It's just that my financial situation is not what...
00:28:23How do you do that?
00:28:25Do that thing where you make me melt into you?
00:28:29Me?
00:28:31I thought you did that.
00:28:33Isn't that what you do?
00:28:34No, it just happens.
00:28:35It's never happened to me before,
00:28:37but it only happens when I'm with you.
00:28:40Okay.
00:28:59We were talking about something. What was that again?
00:29:02Money.
00:29:04Right. Money.
00:29:06Oh my god, who cares about money?
00:29:08I don't care if you're poor, or in debt, or whatever.
00:29:11Well, that's the thing. I'm not actually...
00:29:13I don't want a rich man.
00:29:15I mean, my father is one, and my stepmother, and you've seen them.
00:29:19They're like a cross between Rita Repulsive and Mr. Krabs.
00:29:23Okay, but you don't think every rich person is like that, right?
00:29:27Look, let's just leave it at this.
00:29:29You don't have money, and so what?
00:29:31I don't need all the details.
00:29:33Are you sure?
00:29:34Are you just gonna abandon 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...
00:29:49They will be totally honest with each other from now on.
00:29:53Promise?
00:29:55Yes.
00:30:02What's next?
00:30:11Here's your new home, my husband.
00:30:14I am a lucky guy.
00:30:16Come on in.
00:30:26Sorry about the space.
00:30:28My company's struggling a little bit, so it's a bit modest, but...
00:30:31No, don't!
00:30:35Stop it! Stop it!
00:30:43I'm sorry.
00:30:45I could fix your pipes for you so that it doesn't explode again.
00:30:50Sure, of course.
00:30:56It should probably...
00:31:05He's so hot.
00:31:15It should be all good.
00:31:21So...
00:31:23So...
00:32:04Sorry, I've gotta take it. It's work.
00:32:06I know.
00:32:08This better be important.
00:32:10That's a big move.
00:32:12I'll see what I can do.
00:32:14I'm so sorry.
00:32:16I've gotta go to work.
00:32:17What?
00:32:18I know.
00:32:20What is it you actually do for a living?
00:32:30So, you're making a fire suppressant because you work for Morcorp?
00:32:34Kind of.
00:32:35That's so cool! And it's gonna 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,
00:32:49so there's not much time.
00:32:51Geez.
00:32:53I didn't know. You should have told me.
00:32:55I tried.
00:32:56Well, I'm sure you can do it, Chris.
00:32:58I'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...
00:33:08It's nice.
00:34:16I'll be right there.
00:34:20Okay.
00:34:24Something wrong? What happened?
00:34:26What happened is...
00:34:30We did it!
00:34:36We did it!
00:34:39It worked!
00:34:41Margaret, this is gonna save lives.
00:34:44Oh!
00:34:46Shoot. I have to go meet with the fire captain.
00:34:48Say it's the big test. We have to prove this suppression works.
00:34:51I'll see you later.
00:34:53Okay.
00:35:00Yes! The fires are going out!
00:35:03We are kicking this fire's ass.
00:35:05I mean, this is a breakthrough in science.
00:35:08We are making history, my friend.
00:35:10All right, guys.
00:35:12Grab every container we got.
00:35:14Bambi buckets, tsunami tanks.
00:35:16Get them filled and airborne.
00:35:18We're gonna kill this fire now.
00:35:34Stop whatever you're doing and tell those choppers
00:35:37to load the fire suppressant from Foster Corporation.
00:35:40No. We just tested a fire suppressant from Moorcorp.
00:35:43It's superior to that crap you've been sending us.
00:35:46L.A. is burning.
00:35:48We don't have time for your city hall bullshit.
00:35:50And I don't have time for your insubordination.
00:35:53How much kickback are you making from this, Madam Mayor?
00:35:55How many houses need to burn down
00:35:57in order for you to make a profit
00:35:59off of the bogus chemicals that don't even work?
00:36:01I gave you an order.
00:36:03Load my fire suppressant or you're fired.
00:36:06Good. Fire me.
00:36:08Fire me.
00:36:10Because I will not be responsible for your disaster.
00:36:12Your wish is granted.
00:36:14You're fired.
00:36:19This is the end of Chief Taylor.
00:36:21No.
00:36:23I 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.
00:36:31Okay.
00:36:33Our deal has changed.
00:36:35One-third is not enough.
00:36:37I want a two-third cut.
00:36:39I need to make some money off of this thing.
00:36:41Don't you look so glum.
00:36:44I'm going to make you CEO of Foster, Inc.
00:36:48I got a new plan.
00:36:50Come on.
00:36:52The door won't open itself.
00:36:54I'm going to make you CEO of Foster, Inc.
00:36:57The door won't open itself.
00:37:05Congratulations on your victory.
00:37:07I'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 used the whole city hall to back her up.
00:37:20Hey, don't let them scare you.
00:37:23The bureaucrats 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 behind your back for tomorrow.
00:37:40Copy that.
00:37:44Great.
00:37:45My biological father is about to ambush me.
00:37:47So it seems like we have a common enemy.
00:37:51And?
00:37:52And I'd like to do you the favor of destroying him.
00:37:56How?
00:37:57Do you want me to put you on the board of directors?
00:38:00No, no.
00:38:01I want to be your assistant.
00:38:03What?
00:38:04I'm going to be your boss?
00:38:07Mm-hmm.
00:38:08I've got an idea.
00:38:11Okay.
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.
00:38:30Margaret will be out before she knows what hit her.
00:38:32And 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.
00:38:43What the hell?
00:38:44Not you again.
00:38:46This is a board meeting only for employees of Foster Incorporated.
00:38:50Right.
00:38:51Well, 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.
00:38:59That's trash.
00:39:00Assistant of what?
00:39:02Cleaning toilets?
00:39:04Oh, my God.
00:39:05Margaret, this is just so like you.
00:39:08Soling our company with your low-life husband.
00:39:12Well, I'm glad you acknowledge me as Margaret's husband.
00:39:15It's like it was our first point today on our agenda.
00:39:18Section 12.3.C.
00:39:21Margaret Foster will inherit Foster Inc.
00:39:24So long as she is married by the designated date.
00:39:28So, this means that Margaret is now the owner of Foster Incorporated.
00:39:35From now on, you will call her Madam CEO.
00:39:39No.
00:39:41When are you going to get me one of those?
00:39:43When you hit some class.
00:39:45Don't, pal.
00:39:46I'm going to take him out right now.
00:39:50Doesn't change anything.
00:39:51That's right.
00:39:52This company has been hemorrhaging money because of you, Margaret.
00:39:55We will not let you destroy it.
00:39:57And the only people who can take care of that is sitting right here in this room.
00:40:01Me and my brilliant new man.
00:40:05Steel can turn this company around like that.
00:40:09Tell them, honey.
00:40:12I'm Christopher, and I'll double the company's revenue in four months.
00:40:15Backed by the mayor.
00:40:16My mom.
00:40:17100%.
00:40:19The mayor herself.
00:40:22That's exactly what we need.
00:40:25I like when you take control.
00:40:28Hold on.
00:40:29Margaret and I can also increase Foster Incorporated's revenues.
00:40:34He's going to double the revenue in four months.
00:40:38No one else can match it.
00:40:39Oh, we can.
00:40:41Chris, what are you saying?
00:40:43Stick with me.
00:40:44Okay?
00:40:45What I'm about to say is a promise.
00:40:47A guarantee.
00:40:49Mr. Davis, you claim that you can double revenues in four months.
00:40:54Yes, I can.
00:40:55We will increase revenues tenfold.
00:40:59In only one month.
00:41:03Oh, shit.
00:41:09In only one month.
00:41:13Oh, shit.
00:41:15No one can beat that.
00:41:17This is crazy.
00:41:18We can't make that kind of promise.
00:41:20It's impossible.
00:41:21Margaret, follow my lead.
00:41:24Okay?
00:41:25This is ludicrous.
00:41:27Okay.
00:41:28How the hell is a homeless deadbeat going to increase company revenue?
00:41:33Margaret is a master of outreach.
00:41:35She will set up a strategic partnership with the Moore Corporation.
00:41:39The Moore Corporation has operations in every country in the world.
00:41:43They won't even take a phone call from Margaret.
00:41:46Oh, but they already have.
00:41:48In fact, the manager has set up a meeting for Margaret tomorrow.
00:41:54Yeah, that's bullshit.
00:41:56The Moore Corporation would never work with a nobody like Margaret.
00:41:58You're delusional.
00:42:00Well, there is no harm to let her try.
00:42:04What?
00:42:05You'd better not disappoint us, Margaret.
00:42:07Okay, okay.
00:42:08Let's just make this straight here, okay?
00:42:11Margaret, you have one month to deliver Moore Corporation
00:42:15and make this company's revenue, what, tenfold, you said?
00:42:19One month.
00:42:20Or 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
00:42:39where you belong, with your gutter husband.
00:42:44Got it.
00:42:46Okay.
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?
00:43:10You're not joking?
00:43:12No.
00:43:13God, Chris, that's amazing.
00:43:16By the way, his rings, they almost look real.
00:43:21Yeah, almost.
00:43:33Calm down.
00:43:36We're not going to let your daughter beat you.
00:43:38There's no way she can beat me.
00:43:40You said you never worked with a nobody like her, right?
00:43:43Well, what if she makes it happen?
00:43:45Then we'll stop her.
00:43:46How?
00:43:51Gina, I'm sending over the contact info for Christopher Moore,
00:43:56the 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.
00:44:05Either 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.
00:44:20Christopher Moore guy is a real mystery man.
00:44:24No public appearances.
00:44:26And let's not forget, we rejected his fire suppressants,
00:44:30so he's probably pretty pissed off at us.
00:44:33Don't worry about that.
00:44:35We'll find out who he is and how to get to him.
00:44:39That's my specialty.
00:44:44I've never met with the management of a global corporation before.
00:44:48Who knows?
00:44:49Maybe you have and you just didn't know it.
00:44:52I'd know.
00:44:53They're all assholes.
00:44:54You see them coming from a mile away.
00:44:57This PowerPoint isn't quite ready yet, I don't think.
00:45:03We need to grab their attention right away.
00:45:07And the flowery writing, it's a business meeting,
00:45:12not a poetry club.
00:45:14I mean, have you heard of bullet points?
00:45:17Okay, all right, all right.
00:45:19Well, why don't you show me what you would do?
00:45:21Okay.
00:45:22The presentation.
00:45:23The presentation.
00:45:28I like the pink.
00:45:30I don't think they're going to like me very much.
00:45:34The CEO loves you.
00:45:36The CEO of Morgorp?
00:45:38How could he love me?
00:45:39I've never even met the guy.
00:45:41I mean, he knows you.
00:45:44I've mentioned you to him before.
00:45:48Whoa, Chris, you know the CEO?
00:45:51Who are you?
00:45:52I'm just a nobody.
00:45:54You're not a nobody.
00:45:55You're my husband.
00:46:03That is great.
00:46:04It's just that these guys don't have the attention spans.
00:46:06Reed, you're poetic.
00:46:07For the business proposal, we could do something along the lines of...
00:46:18Today, we are going to be talking about...
00:46:20Do you feel like you're giving a school presentation?
00:46:23Or playing Twisted?
00:46:25I'm dramatic vet.
00:46:27I'm pulling their attention.
00:46:28You are, exactly.
00:46:29It's acting.
00:46:32Talking about my presentation that I have.
00:46:46Good morning, boss.
00:46:49I mean, boxes of mints are on the table if you'd like to try one.
00:46:54He 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.
00:47:02Oh, of course.
00:47:04We work closely together, and he's my...
00:47:10manager.
00:47:14Do you feel ready?
00:47:16I think so.
00:47:18Okay.
00:47:21I need you to sit with me.
00:47:22No way.
00:47:23We have an agreement.
00:47:25It's a sign.
00:47:26She still doesn't know who you are.
00:47:28Copy that.
00:47:29I'll set up the meeting now.
00:47:31Oh, and the mayor wants to meet.
00:47:33Of course she does.
00:47:34She's in the office now.
00:47:35What a surprise.
00:47:36Surprise!
00:47:37What's the surprise?
00:47:42Surprise!
00:47:43What's the surprise?
00:47:44Someone else wants a meeting, but they are just going to have to wait.
00:47:55We have been waiting here for half an hour.
00:47:58Yes, 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?
00:48:13How dare you?
00:48:15You are just a useless office girl.
00:48:19Now, tell Mr. Moore that I insist...
00:48:31Good morning, Mr. Moore.
00:48:33That's him.
00:48:37Oh, my God.
00:48:40Can you believe they let common street trash in a beautiful building like this?
00:48:45Excuse me, why did 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.
00:49:06Okay, I might have underestimated you, okay?
00:49:08But don't you get delusional.
00:49:09Whoever you're meeting has to be a low-level lackey.
00:49:12Let's get real.
00:49:13The 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.
00:49:26Mr. Moore is on his way.
00:49:28Do you mind waiting here just a bit longer?
00:49:31Sorry your meeting got delayed.
00:49:33Well, mine is right on the dot.
00:49:35You see, my husband and I made a presentation together.
00:49:38It's very professional.
00:49:40Do you think Moore Corp is really going to like it?
00:49:44I'm taking three.
00:49:48Meant to be.
00:49:51How dare she? How dare she?
00:49:53Fine.
00:49:55We wait.
00:49:57But he better be here soon.
00:49:59I mean, of course.
00:50:00After all, you're the mayor.
00:50:04Thank you all for meeting me today.
00:50:21And I would love to work with you.
00:50:31Congratulations.
00:50:34He still isn't here?
00:50:36This is outrageous.
00:50:38Mr. Moore is on the way, but you know, L.A. traffic, plus the fires, make it even worse.
00:50:45Excuse me.
00:50:52Sorry to interrupt your indignation, but do you have a sheet protector that I could use?
00:50:57I just signed a contract and I don't want to get it stained or anything.
00:51:00Congratulations, Ms. Foster.
00:51:02Yeah, okay, quit playing games.
00:51:04You didn't sign any contract.
00:51:06Well, unfortunately for you, I did.
00:51:09And it's for a hundred million dollar deal.
00:51:13Bullshit.
00:51:17Not bad.
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!
00:51:29I will not let you do this.
00:51:32By the way, what are your friends showing up for?
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.
00:51:50You'll have to schedule an interview with my press team.
00:51:53I don't have time for this right now.
00:51:55Well, it looks like you have plenty of time.
00:51:57Tell us, why aren't you out there stopping the fires?
00:52:00What do you have to say?
00:52:01It is completely unfair that you are judging me.
00:52:04I am working every minute on this.
00:52:07But you rejected Moor Corp's fire suppressant.
00:52:10And you made a deal with Mr. Foster.
00:52:12I had my reasons.
00:52:14And what were they? Personal profits? Stock options?
00:52:20Oh, Mr. Foster, it's you.
00:52:22We got a tip that you have an under the table deal with Madam Mayor.
00:52:27And that your fire suppressant doesn't even work.
00:52:30That is complete nonsense. Complete 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.
00:53:00Why aren't you out there trying to stop the fires?
00:53:03It is completely unfair for you to judge me.
00:53:06I have been working on this every day.
00:53:09One 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.
00:53:21Yeah, but the CEO, Mr. Moore, didn't show up.
00:53:24I wonder what he's like.
00:53:27Probably just some rich a-hole.
00:53:31That's what you said, remember?
00:53:33Yeah, but his company is actually doing good things.
00:53:37I kind of want to meet him.
00:53:39I don't know if that's a great idea.
00:53:41He's a bachelor, you know?
00:53:44He might try to steal you from me.
00:53:47Oh, that is not going to happen.
00:53:51I felt you supporting me today, Chris.
00:53:54All day.
00:53:56I haven't felt that support since my mom passed away.
00:53:59I'm sorry you had to go through that.
00:54:01I know it must have been a very dark time.
00:54:04But you're my rock.
00:54:06I 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 and drag you to bed,
00:54:19and other times I just want to get closer and feel your heart beating next to mine.
00:54:33My heart is racing.
00:54:35For you.
00:54:49I don't know where you've been.
00:54:51But I'm glad that you're here.
00:54:53Let me take you by the hand.
00:54:56It'll be easy to manage.
00:54:58But, girl, it's our time.
00:55:01Just you and I.
00:55:03Don't lie, don't hide.
00:55:08I'll do it right.
00:55:10We've got our way.
00:55:13I'll take you so high.
00:55:18Baby, let me love you.
00:55:21Let me love you.
00:55:23Baby, let me love you.
00:55:31You killed it, Margaret.
00:55:33You're a rock star.
00:55:35We're with you, Margaret.
00:55:37Always.
00:55:38You see?
00:55:39Everyone's with you now.
00:55:41No one supports you now.
00:55:43Because this is a bogus agreement.
00:55:46It's a publicity stunt.
00:55:48Can't you see?
00:55:49Like anyone's going to give her a hundred million dollars.
00:55:53Oh my gosh.
00:56:06Put me through to finance.
00:56:08We need to make a bank transfer.
00:56:10Once they find out that my surprise is better than more companies,
00:56:15they're going to cut Margaret off like that.
00:56:20So, who are you supporting now?
00:56:27Are you sure Moral Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:35Are you sure Moral Corp is not going to pay us?
00:56:40A hundred percent.
00:56:42Why would they shell out cash to someone like that?
00:56:45Because a down payment of thirty million dollars
00:56:49just landed in our corporate account.
00:56:52From Moral Corp.
00:56:54Oh, wrong again, Dad.
00:56:57Seems like you're making a real habit of that.
00:57:00Just you wait.
00:57:02Once they see that my surprise is superior,
00:57:05all of this is going to be all gone.
00:57:09Margaret, we want you to know that we support you
00:57:12and we've been on your side all along.
00:57:15Yes.
00:57:16I greatly appreciate that.
00:57:20Seems like we have some big things to do.
00:57:27Today's the day that we prove our suppressedness superior once and for all.
00:57:32Get those stupid reporters off our backs.
00:57:35And as the new fire chief, you know what your job is, right?
00:57:41Fight the fires?
00:57:44No.
00:57:46Make sure you follow my commands.
00:57:52It's them.
00:57:54How did you know they were going to be here?
00:57:56Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:01Are you some kind of spy?
00:58:04Hey, I'm just a regular guy.
00:58:07That's what you said.
00:58:08That's why you like me. Remember?
00:58:10Well, for a regular guy, you sure do have a lot of inside information.
00:58:14I just know they ordered a chopper today.
00:58:16Off record, and I want to know why.
00:58:19There it is.
00:58:21What?
00:58:32The fires are getting worse. Holy shit!
00:58:35Oh, no!
00:58:38That's not fire suppressant.
00:58:40It's more like fire starter.
00:58:42Call the chopper and tell them to stop dropping it.
00:58:45Oh, my God.
00:58:48It's too late.
00:58:49The payloads have all been dropped.
00:58:51Good God, it's coming our direction.
00:58:54You're an idiot.
00:58:55If this reaches us, everything here is going to blow sky high.
00:59:02No, how do half-wits like this get control of the city?
00:59:05We've got to do something about this.
00:59:07How?
00:59:08I'll figure something out, but first, I've got to get you to safety. Come on.
00:59:12Come on.
00:59:13Okay, okay.
00:59:17For now, I just want you to stay here and be careful.
00:59:20You need to be careful, too, Chris.
00:59:22You're not fireproof, you know.
00:59:26What are you doing here?
00:59:28Step ahead of you.
00:59:29Thought you might need my help.
00:59:31Okay, thank you.
00:59:33Yeah, I've got a few things you can do for me.
00:59:35You've got stuff to do for him?
00:59:38But I thought he was your manager.
00:59:40He is, but the thing is...
00:59:44I'm the... as your manager, I have to look after my employees.
00:59:48Why, I might even give you a raise next year, Chris.
00:59:55Just stay here. Keep a watch on the fire alerts, okay?
00:59:59I will call my people, our people, to protect you.
01:00:06Tomorrow.
01:00:10Call Capstone Fire to have them come to Margaret's house immediately.
01:00:13Really? You didn't even do that for your own house, which is worth like a hundred million dollars.
01:00:17Just do it, okay?
01:00:19Okay.
01:00:20I'm only saying her house is worth like half a million.
01:00:23The cost of the service is probably...
01:00:25It's not always about money, Whitman.
01:00:28Okay, call them right now.
01:00:30You're paying the bill.
01:00:32It's going to be an expensive call.
01:00:41Fire Protection Service?
01:00:44Where'd they come from?
01:00:49You screwed this up!
01:00:52I could bankrupt you like that!
01:00:55Hold on. I know how to fix all of this with just two words.
01:00:59More Corp. Okay?
01:01:02We buy all their fire suppressant.
01:01:04You know, very hush-hush.
01:01:06And then you get all the credit for it.
01:01:08Get all the credit for it.
01:01:09How?
01:01:10They blocked our calls. We can't get to them.
01:01:13Yeah, we can't.
01:01:15But Margaret can.
01:01:18And she is still my daughter.
01:01:24My critics are politically motivated.
01:01:28We have the fires completely under control.
01:01:31This is bullshit.
01:01:33I grew up in Los Angeles.
01:01:35Played in these parks and in these playgrounds.
01:01:45Not to watch it all burn down because these fools won't use a fire suppressant that works.
01:01:50Margaret.
01:01:59I hope you don't mind me interrupting, Mr. Whitman.
01:02:03Huh? Oh, yes.
01:02:05Well, yes, it's my office, but, you know.
01:02:08Even if it's important.
01:02:09It is.
01:02:10Chris, my father called.
01:02:13He wants something.
01:02:17My father called. He wants something.
01:02:20The answer is no.
01:02:22If there's something that your dad wants, it's probably that.
01:02:25Maybe not this time.
01:02:27He wants to call a truce.
01:02:34It's very unusual for Mr. Moore to grant a meeting on such short notice.
01:02:38We'll need to be quick.
01:02:40Right.
01:02:41Mr. Moore is a very private man, and this meeting is entirely confidential.
01:02:44Do not try to look at his face.
01:02:47Talk.
01:02:49Well, to be a vendor in this city, you have to go through lots of protocols.
01:02:55And that takes time.
01:02:57We don't have time.
01:02:59Exactly.
01:03:01You see, Mr. Foster's company is already an approved vendor.
01:03:06And so...
01:03:07So we sell to Mr. Foster.
01:03:09He sells to the city.
01:03:11We can't let anyone know.
01:03:13Do I have that right?
01:03:14You are fast, Mr. Moore.
01:03:17So, what's your price?
01:03:19Free.
01:03:21But you have to answer this one question.
01:03:23Why are you doing this?
01:03:26Well, we were just concerned for the city.
01:03:30Cut the bullshit.
01:03:32Speak to me straight, or get out.
01:03:36Okay.
01:03:38Okay.
01:03:40Let's put our cards on the table.
01:03:45We'll put our cards on the table.
01:03:47We're doing this because our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:03:54It made the fires worse.
01:03:56If the public finds out, we're screwed.
01:03:59So, we'd like to use the Moore Corp's fire suppressant.
01:04:04But you can't tell anyone.
01:04:07They have to believe we made it.
01:04:09If you agree, I will guarantee permission of the shopping mall you applied for in downtown L.A.
01:04:17Deal?
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?
01:04:35Zero.
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.
01:04:48Okay.
01:04:50Thanks.
01:04:52This guy's a prime idiot.
01:04:55He chose for free.
01:04:57He's a billionaire, you fool.
01:05:00He doesn't care about small money.
01:05:02I knew he wanted to build that mall.
01:05:05That's how I got him.
01:05:07I don't understand.
01:05:09Why did you give it to them for free?
01:05:11I don't know.
01:05:13I don't understand.
01:05:15Why did you give it to them for free?
01:05:18Because I got exactly what I wanted.
01:05:24Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:05:27It made the virus worse.
01:05:35It's been an hour.
01:05:37Why haven't we gotten any word?
01:05:39It's been 20 minutes.
01:05:41The pilots need time to confirm.
01:05:43Mrs. Mayer, it worked.
01:05:45It's like a miracle.
01:05:47Moor Corp's suppressant is...
01:05:49Don't say Moor Corp.
01:05:52No one is to know where it's from.
01:05:55As far as the world is concerned,
01:05:58it's our suppressant.
01:06:01Got it?
01:06:03Yes, got it.
01:06:05No problem.
01:06:08You know how much money this is going to make us?
01:06:13You are going to be known as the mayor who saved the city.
01:06:20And you are going to win the next election by a landslide.
01:06:26Exactly.
01:06:33Gina, arrange a press conference for tomorrow.
01:06:37We're going to let everyone know I saved Los Angeles.
01:06:49Every news outlet is saying the same thing.
01:06:52It's not a fluke.
01:06:54The first time in a week, the fires are retreating.
01:06:58What about the suppressant?
01:07:00They've dropped all of it and they want more.
01:07:03The winds have even died down.
01:07:05It's like nature is on our side now.
01:07:08Finally.
01:07:14Finally.
01:07:16The mayor is calling a press conference.
01:07:19You know she's going to take credit for stopping the fires.
01:07:22I know she's going to try.
01:07:24Oh, what about Marguerite?
01:07:27This is not good, boss.
01:07:29She really thinks I run Moor Corp.
01:07:31I don't know why.
01:07:33It's 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, I've got it all planned out for tonight.
01:07:49One step ahead of you, boss.
01:07:54Marguerite, 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.
01:08:00No, it's not like that.
01:08:02It's my husband.
01:08:13My husband, he is totally overprotective.
01:08:16You know that I had to convince him that it was safe enough for me to come into my own office?
01:08:21Marguerite, it's about those rings.
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 those rings on your finger are real.
01:08:48They are a little ridiculous. I mean, who has diamonds this size?
01:08:51Well, that's the thing. Some people do have diamonds that size.
01:08:56There's a name for those people.
01:08:58Billionaires.
01:09:00Isabel, what are you talking about?
01:09:03Marguerite, I've got something to tell you.
01:09:06Now, I would have told you sooner,
01:09:08but you hate rich people so much that I was afraid you were going to get your guillotine out.
01:09:14How much do you know about Moore Corp's CEO, Christopher Moore?
01:09:19He's some rich guy?
01:09:21Who never met with you because he doesn't make public appearances.
01:09:25Yeah, so?
01:09:28Do you remember that private investigator we used to look into that auditing glitch last year?
01:09:32Good God, Isabel, would you just tell me what you're talking about?
01:09:35I asked the PI to trace known records of Moore.
01:09:38There was very little there, but he did find one tidbit.
01:09:43Moore purchased some jewelry.
01:09:46Okay, yeah, rich guys buy jewelry, so what?
01:09:50So, this is what he bought.
01:09:55Look 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. the same day that Chris gave you those.
01:10:17So, that means my husband is...
01:10:20Christopher Moore?
01:10:23So, you're making a fire suppressant because 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 with 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.
01:10:53Okay.
01:10:54Casseroles in the oven, salads in the fridge,
01:10:57Jean-Pilard Beaujolais on the chill.
01:11:08Now let's have the prayer that you'll listen to me with an open mind.
01:11:18Margaret, I have something to tell you.
01:11:23Margaret, I, uh...
01:11:25Don't say another word.
01:11:28Just leave.
01:11:32You're a liar!
01:11:36You're a liar!
01:11:52I am proud to announce that the fires that have been ravaging this city
01:11:58are now extinguished.
01:12:02These fires are out because of our brave mayor, Michelle Gavish.
01:12:09And I just want to say thank you to the firefighters...
01:12:12I am the one who put out these fires.
01:12:17Girl, you really kicked a billionaire out of your house?
01:12:21He lied to me.
01:12:23I've had enough betrayal for an entire lifetime.
01:12:25I'm sure he had his reasons.
01:12:27He didn't mean to hurt you, Margaret.
01:12:29Yeah, well, it hurts anyway.
01:12:37And I would like to acknowledge myself
01:12:40for the courage, the vision, and the leadership
01:12:45that great leaders show when they're leading.
01:12:51Cringe.
01:12:53You cannot overstate how stupid she is.
01:12:56Can I just say one more thing?
01:12:58No, you cannot.
01:13:00The fire suppressant that put out the fires
01:13:04was created by me
01:13:07and deployed at my command.
01:13:11Yes, yes, yes, thank you.
01:13:14It's me who saved L.A.
01:13:17Support me.
01:13:19Vote for me.
01:13:22Y'all know you can trust me.
01:13:26God bless...
01:13:30Ladies and gentlemen, excuse me.
01:13:38Everything that you have just heard
01:13:40is a fairy tale, fiction, a lie.
01:13:45Oh, my goodness.
01:13:47Is that your billionaire husband?
01:13:51Hmm.
01:13:54The mayor has been lying to you all.
01:13:57Pay no attention to this man.
01:13:59Security, have him removed.
01:14:02Y'all, pay no attention to this.
01:14:04There's nothing to see here.
01:14:06The firemen are the true heroes who saved this city.
01:14:09The mayor has time and time again tried to stop them.
01:14:12That is bullshit.
01:14:14Security, do your jobs.
01:14:17No, no, no, let him speak.
01:14:19It's a free country.
01:14:20Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:22Yeah, we want a statement.
01:14:23Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:24Yeah, let him talk.
01:14:25Mayor Davis, why are you afraid of this man?
01:14:27Are you hiding something?
01:14:29Of course not.
01:14:30She's afraid of me because she knows
01:14:32that I can tell you all right now what actually happened.
01:14:35Then why should we listen to you?
01:14:39Because the fire suppressant that actually put out the fires
01:14:42was supplied by Moor Court,
01:14:44and I am the CEO of Moor Court.
01:14:49I am Christopher Moor.
01:14:51Well, he's not hiding his identity anymore.
01:14:54He's taking on the whole city.
01:14:57Instead of trying to put the fires out,
01:14:59the mayor and her collaborators were probably...
01:15:04I want to watch this live.
01:15:05You coming?
01:15:07No.
01:15:14Yes, hold on, Isabel.
01:15:19My company has been trying to assist the firefighters.
01:15:22He's the CEO of Moor Court?
01:15:25Why didn't you tell me, you dumbass?
01:15:27If we don't stop him, we're all screwed.
01:15:29Then do something to stop him.
01:15:31The mayor threatened us,
01:15:32and time and time again tried to get in our way.
01:15:35That is not true.
01:15:38Look, I received a medal for all of my hard work
01:15:41in putting out those fires.
01:15:43I wouldn't have given myself this medal
01:15:45if I didn't deserve it.
01:15:48Mr. Moor, I think there's been a little misunderstanding.
01:15:51Can I speak to you privately?
01:15:54The mayor wanted me to remind you
01:15:56about the omission of the shopping mall.
01:16:00Oh, of course.
01:16:02That reminds me.
01:16:03Whitman.
01:16:05Let's play them that video we brought.
01:16:14Our fire suppressant didn't work.
01:16:16It made the fires worse.
01:16:19If the public finds out, we are screwed.
01:16:23Why are you hiding the truth from the citizens
01:16:25in your own city?
01:16:26Okay, this is a complete fabrication.
01:16:30Look at that.
01:16:31It's an AIGCD fake.
01:16:34I have something to say about that.
01:16:44No.
01:16:45No.
01:16:46This man has no business here.
01:16:49He was fired for dereliction of duty.
01:16:52Officers, remove him.
01:16:59Are you going to stop?
01:17:03No, sir, chief.
01:17:05We'll clear the way.
01:17:07Everyone, make way for Chief Taylor and his men.
01:17:10They're heroes.
01:17:16They're heroes.
01:17:18Stop them.
01:17:19That's an order.
01:17:21You've got to stop.
01:17:23You guys can't come up here.
01:17:25This is a violation.
01:17:28Don't you touch me.
01:17:32We want Chief Taylor reinstated.
01:17:35Yeah, that's right.
01:17:36Taylor! Taylor! Taylor! 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 suppressants.
01:18:05You can't prove that.
01:18:07Actually...
01:18:16I can.
01:18:18Mayor Davis, this is a huge scandal.
01:18:21You should resign.
01:18:23Get out of here.
01:18:25No! Listen to me.
01:18:28Stop it! Stop it!
01:18:30Stop it! Stop it!
01:18:33Stop it! Stop it!
01:18:41Before we wrap this up,
01:18:42I'd like to share something personal
01:18:45with you all.
01:18:47Chief 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,
01:19:02and even hope.
01:19:04And I think that's what we all need.
01:19:07I think that's what we all need.
01:19:10I think that's what we all need.
01:19:13And even love.
01:19:15The catastrophe of these L.A. wildfires
01:19:19has brought much darkness.
01:19:21But it's also brought people together.
01:19:24It brought a woman
01:19:25with a beautiful heart into my life.
01:19:27And if I can take a moment of your time,
01:19:29I'd like to try to get a message to her.
01:19:33Margaret, I love you.
01:19:37It hurts to not be with you.
01:19:40I 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,
01:19:58you're the only superstar I've ever wanted
01:20:01or 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.
01:20:18So, 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,
01:20:28but I hope somehow you've heard my message.
01:20:36I heard it.
01:20:40Margaret,
01:20:42last time you proposed to me,
01:20:45now I'm proposing to you.
01:20:52Margaret,
01:20:54will you marry me and be my wife?
01:21:09Yes.
01:21:33You're doing the melting thing again.
01:21:35I thought you were doing it.
01:21:40Mom, it's not good.
01:21:42Christopher Moore's accusing you of embezzlement,
01:21:44money laundering, securities fraud.
01:21:47I will make his life a living hell.
01:21:50Michelle Davis,
01:21:52you're under arrest for 12 counts of corruption.
01:21:55Are you insane?
01:21:57You just committed career suicide.
01:22:00You're fired.
01:22:02You're on fire.
01:22:04She'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 three 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 letter for the house.
01:22:35Oh, geez.
01:22:37But you can't sell something that's not rightfully yours.
01:22:41What the hell is going on, Kayla?
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.
01:23:00Chris.
01:23:02Mr. Moore.
01:23:05I'm almost 60.
01:23:06You 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.
01:23:21Oh, you're paying for what you did, Dad.
01:23:24Hey!
01:23:25How dare you put your own father in jail?
01:23:30You know, you are an ungrateful little bitch.
01:23:36Oh, I 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.
01:23:56I'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,
01:24:23and I'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.
