00:0012 classic music
00:11Shit! No no no no no no!
00:14The system crashed mid-up-load!
00:16The collection is the wrong season!
00:18We want everything!
00:22Come on, Ron, waiting for 48 hours.
00:25Production starts with these bus-ed designs,
00:27we are all dead.
00:28Not just fire!
00:30How many collapses our careers are over?
00:33Come out here and talk to us! We have 8 million tied up in this collection!
00:38I am the Bastion at your boat right now!
00:41One word for me, your interest is poison!
00:57Enough!
00:58Vic!
01:01Mia, Japanese Indigo.
01:04Miranda, call Production Emergency Protocol 7.
01:08Pauline, and Liz Vultures.
01:15Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:1928 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
01:2327 now.
01:25Tick tock.
01:26Aunt Ben.
01:29Crisis averted.
01:34I swear to God, you are not human.
01:3727 minutes!
01:39And then, crisis averted.
01:48I swear to God, you are not human.
01:5027 minutes.
01:52Holy shit, pre-orders are flooding in.
01:55This will shatter every record.
02:03Are you okay?
02:05Just Braxton Hicks, nothing to do.
02:12Oh my God, your water broke.
02:20Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:26Multitasking is my superpower, pumpkin?
02:30Dad called.
02:31I wanted to know if we should come, but...
02:34I told him that he lost his visiting privileges, and he decided that his assistance man was more comfortable than ours.
02:42That's my girl.
02:53Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:55But, there's a condition.
02:59We need to slash costs.
03:01Immediately.
03:03Layoffs?
03:07Half and without leave.
03:09Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:13Well, just remember, we're going to clean up that Malayan disaster, and get immunity.
03:18In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
03:26No way this Victoria went or saved the company, since she's not even there.
03:34Boss, the Mulan collection crisis, averted.
03:38Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:39You, you saved the entire collection?
03:42Impressive.
03:44Oh, actually.
03:45How about I make you the new creative director?
03:47Starting today.
03:50Oh my God, is this really happening?
03:53She's offering Victoria's job?
03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
03:59But, Victoria...
04:05Don't worry about her.
04:06That useless dragon is on fire.
04:13You know that collection I just rescued, Ab?
04:16I hid something in the design.
04:19Your initials, and now little graces.
04:23Who have lightened the fabric?
04:24Yeah, and that's going to give a long runway?
04:32Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:35Enough of your full tuition at private school.
04:38Mom, if we have to...
04:40We're going to that private school.
04:42No discussion.
04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:47This job will keep us afloat.
04:49I love you, Mom.
04:54Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
05:05After all these years in your shadow, Victoria,
05:08I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:10Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
05:35What the hell?
05:37Listen up, everyone.
05:38Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:41Effective immediately.
05:43You can't just do that.
05:45She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:47They're a loss against this.
05:49Vic worked while in labor.
05:52She's a creative backbone of Miss El Niveau.
05:55Maternity leave, medical insurance.
05:57These preggles are bleeding us dry.
06:01Everything okay here?
06:02Great timing.
06:07Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:10Clear out your desk now.
06:20You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:23I saved this company three times when your father could have been able.
06:27Three times.
06:28Well, that's ancient history.
06:34The world was fresh blood.
06:36And me eager to save the entire long collection.
06:43What?
06:43I'm the one who...
06:46Me eager to save the entire long collection.
06:48You're like her.
06:52That's her signature.
06:54That's what makes it me as an lover.
07:00How could you?
07:01I taught you everything you know.
07:03I wish things were different, Vick.
07:12I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:18What happens to my team?
07:24Miranda pulled all matters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:30These costs so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:35Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:39These jobs are their lifelines, health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:44You can't just throw them away.
07:47Actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:50No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
07:54That's corporate America for you.
07:56Or we can shift the math.
07:59You sign.
08:01They stay.
08:02The budget works out.
08:04Think of it as taking one for the team.
08:09Miranda's still drowning in her husband's deaths.
08:12Aunt Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:16They can't lose their jobs.
08:22Come on, Vick.
08:23You say you care about them.
08:24Prove it.
08:29Don.
08:30That's perfect.
08:32I mean you're so lost.
08:33Don't have to be sold.
08:34Mr.
08:56Hi Fred, that's my severest package after 15 years, that's what I'm worth to-
09:19Careful, I got you.
09:26Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:32Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:47So, it's true.
09:50Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving we saw in the Loyal's Mulan collection.
09:59How do you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:06Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:09What are you getting at exactly?
10:15I'm talking about you and me.
10:18Partners.
10:20Your genius, my money.
10:23No corporate BS.
10:25No one holding you back.
10:27I found a baby to think about now.
10:31And I have an empty corner office with you and an attached nursery.
10:37Just saying.
10:41Vincent Chevalier, wow!
10:42I didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin and our corporate nemesis scrolling into the office.
10:53Got your spine here?
10:57Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here.
11:00Soft landing.
11:02Triple her salary, corner office.
11:04You know.
11:06Before the vultures at Elvie or Chanel swooping.
11:09I want to see your dumpster diving now.
11:12Rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:16It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:21I mean the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:27The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:29If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:36Shit, shit, shit.
11:38What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:47Actually, those were my designs.
11:53What did you just say?
11:55The spring collection.
11:57The Cartier pieces.
11:58I designed them.
12:00Under your supervision, of course.
12:02But they came from me.
12:04Oops.
12:05Looks like you've been backing your own horse, Vincent.
12:08I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:12Let explain my signature.
12:14On the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:17So what, sketches get past her all the time, it doesn't really squat.
12:26Maybe she was in the middle, what did they call it?
12:29The dress designer?
12:31On the logo?
12:32The EW, woven in, Victoria's signature mark.
12:38It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:42Mommy, explain it.
12:43Maybe shut up.
12:44It's funny.
12:45It's funny.
12:46All those pieces, with the Milan collection that everyone's losing at her, they all have EW and GW's so good too.
12:57Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
13:01Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:04It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all of your designs, Mia.
13:09Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
13:13Well, Mia, tell them.
13:15Tell them you designed this.
13:17Tell them you saved Milan.
13:18The logo, it's, it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:26You lying little bitch!
13:29Black Promotion was for saving the company.
13:35Look at the logo again.
13:37It's not EW or GW.
13:41It's actually two M's.
13:44M-M for McMichael, my last name.
13:49See?
13:51One M flipped.
13:52One upright.
13:54It's not for Grace or Emily.
13:57It's mine.
13:59That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:02Oh my gosh, she's right.
14:03It does look more like two M's.
14:08You manipulated me.
14:09She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:13You learned well, Mia.
14:16Maybe too long.
14:18You'll regret this.
14:21Come on, Missy.
14:23We don't have to seek to know more.
14:25Okay.
14:27Let me try again, okay?
14:28For hours outside.
14:29If I got this, you shouldn't be carrying anything.
14:38Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:41Just take care of my honor of holding for you.
14:44That's right.
14:45Get the hell out of my company.
14:47Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:51Call of Victoria.
14:52V.I.P. in the station.
14:53Maristash and me.
14:54Front row.
14:55I didn't even find it.
14:56Lightning.
14:57Every pregnant woman fired.
14:58All of us.
14:59Just like that.
15:00No severance.
15:01No warning.
15:02Nothing.
15:03But a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:04But a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:05Finally, purge to the company.
15:06I don't know.
15:07I don't know.
15:08I didn't even find it.
15:09Lightning.
15:17Every pregnant woman fired.
15:20All of us.
15:21Just like that.
15:23No severance.
15:24No warning.
15:25Nothing.
15:26But a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:28Finally, purge to the company of those walking liabilities.
15:37Their termination beacon won't practically pay for your sign.
15:40The bonus might be right in a star.
15:43Now, I'm not going to slash you again.
15:45Your designs are eerily lighted.
15:51Shut up your eyes closed.
15:58Oh my god, Mom.
16:01This is insane.
16:03I can't believe we're actually here.
16:05Victoria Winter.
16:06The nuclear dick.
16:08Your mom's basically a legend.
16:10You know that, right?
16:11Yeah.
16:13We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison de Vaux.
16:16Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:21Wait.
16:22Maison de Vaux?
16:23Well, well.
16:24The queen of the outer crown embraces us with her presence.
16:28Great with you to show up here.
16:30What's next?
16:31Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:33Leaving so soon.
16:34You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:37Is mommy dearest going to deal with her little career update
16:39about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
16:42Mom, is that true?
16:43Don't worry.
16:44She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
16:58Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter.
17:01Still pretending she matters.
17:06My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:10If Miss Honeyville is putting people like you in charge of the business,
17:14then maybe deserves to crash and burn.
17:17Well, look at that.
17:18It seems entitlement runs in the family.
17:21Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:25That's got a stain, huh?
17:26Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
17:31Hey, good news.
17:33There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
17:37If paying bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:41That's enough!
17:45That's enough!
17:47You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
17:50You never belonged in this world.
17:52Look at her.
17:54A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
17:58That dress...
18:00It's a cheap knockoff.
18:01Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week is not just pathetic.
18:06It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:13What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:16Remove that dress!
18:18We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:22Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
18:24Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:29Take your hands off her now.
18:33And sit.
18:39You're dismissed.
18:40You're dismissed.
18:49You alright?
18:54You alright?
18:56Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chamellier!
18:59The reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
19:02What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:04That knockoff?
19:07That you so eager to trash her for?
19:10It's Chauvenne.
19:12Bout Couture.
19:14Winter Collection.
19:16Not even released yet.
19:18Pass tag?
19:20300,000.
19:22Wow!
19:24You gave her that.
19:26That's right.
19:28I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:32Oh my god, everyone mystery solved!
19:35Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
19:38Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
19:41He's from Hawking Trust Fund.
19:44Victoria's leaving her way to the top.
19:47It's just so predictably desperate.
19:53You really don't understand real talent.
19:56Do you?
19:58For those of you who don't know me,
19:59I'm Vincent Chamellier.
20:02CEO of Jevenne.
20:05And yes,
20:07I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:11I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:15Your brilliance.
20:17Your principles.
20:19Your passion.
20:21Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:25Mom, did you know about this?
20:26I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:31But in the meantime, what I will do
20:34is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:39She won't let you down, boss.
20:43You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
20:46She's nothing but a has been.
20:48The show's about to start.
20:50Your seats are waiting.
20:55Holy shit.
20:57The industry, Boldboy and the Creative Powerhouse together?
21:02Talk about a power couple.
21:04They can build the entire industry.
21:05The entire industry.
21:07This isn't over, bitch.
21:09Wait till you see what I've prepared for.
21:21So you seriously didn't love my mom since high school?
21:23Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:31Some people do.
21:34Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:38This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:42She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:46It's true.
21:47She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:50I slaved away on those designs day and night.
21:52Victoria's the nerve to pass them off as her own.
21:53Victoria's the nerve to pass them off as her own.
21:56And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
21:57And Victoria has the nerve to pass them off as her own.
21:58Victoria-
22:07That's just particularly iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:10Your entire career is based on lives of manipulation.
22:13That's enough, Holly.
22:15That's enough, Holly.
22:17Everyone thinks you're an creative genius, but I know what you mean.
22:19Everyone thinks you're a creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:23Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:28Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:32That's her real design strategy.
22:34Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
22:37And those kids she's so proud of? Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:42Who gave you?
22:44It's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
22:53Not now.
22:59The primary fabrics are disintegrating into the lights.
23:03The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:06We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:09Is this some kind of sick joke in the world?
23:11You can't send the show because you're incompetent?
23:13This is completely unprofessional.
23:16I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:20This is breach of contract.
23:24It's actually fixable.
23:27Oh, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with backstabbing vultures.
23:34Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:36Masonville 4 appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:39Sources say the entire collection may be canceled.
23:41Minutes before showtime.
23:42The question on everyone's mind?
23:44Is this the end for the most prestigious fashion weeks?
23:48This show doesn't happen?
23:54You're personally liable for the breach of practice.
23:57We're talking buildings, homie.
23:59Buildings.
24:00Buildings.
24:23What's this?
24:24Now.
24:25How?
24:26How?
24:27The fiber supplier must have sent us defective materials.
24:30I can't magically make you dresses in an hour.
24:34You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:37If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:41That's billions of dollars.
24:44Then you better figure something out.
24:46Because if you don't, not only are you fired,
24:49I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:02Miss Winter, how do you respond to accusations over design theft?
25:07Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins claims about your personal life?
25:11Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:15And for the record,
25:16you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:19We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:32Excuse me.
25:34Excuse me.
25:36It's okay.
25:37It'll be right.
25:44What do you want, Mia?
25:49Vic, I really need your help.
25:52Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
25:57Look, I know you're furious.
25:59I would be too.
26:01But think about Miranda and believe for a second.
26:04What about them?
26:05Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:08If we tank, they're done.
26:10Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:13Please.
26:14If you care about them keeping their jobs,
26:16just don't pull this out with you.
26:19Miranda and Holly are responsible for this show.
26:21Yes, absolutely.
26:23And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:26Please, Vic.
26:27Not for me.
26:28For that.
26:29It's weird.
26:30I would have expected them to be here in Paris,
26:33enough for such a make or break show.
26:35What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:40They...
26:41They couldn't make it.
26:42Holly cut the travel budget.
26:45Is that right?
26:47Victoria,
26:48I know I don't deserve your help.
26:52They do.
26:54Fine.
26:55I'll help.
26:56But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
27:01Not for you.
27:02Oh my god.
27:02It's Victoria Winter.
27:15The nuclear vec.
27:16I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:19Now.
27:20I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:29Regular fuchsia won't work with this fabric.
27:32Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:34Do you miss work?
27:37Do you miss work?
27:44Vincent...
27:45How did you...?
27:46I figured you might need some supplies,
27:49so...
27:50I had my assistant bring over JaVan's emergency kit.
27:53I...
27:56This is perfect, but...
27:58JaVan and Maisel Navo are competitors.
28:00Why would you help them?
28:04I'm not helping them.
28:06I'm helping you.
28:09I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:12I have a design I've been saving.
28:14Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:17It's yours now.
28:18I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:22Then what do you want?
28:25You.
28:28What?
28:32You're a talent.
28:34You're a vision.
28:36Come and work as you're in.
28:38I'm in.
28:40I'll work for you.
28:42Just like that?
28:43Just like that.
28:44Now?
28:45Let me finish my final job for Maisel Navo.
28:52I hate it
28:54When I'm on school
28:56I wish I was cool
28:58Like I never went school
29:00I regret it
29:02So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get it
29:05I want me better
29:07Don't ever change
29:10I'm gonna be proud of my name
29:14She's doing it in minutes
29:17What would've taken us hours?
29:19Whoa
29:20No wonder they call it a Nuclear Vic
29:23It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing
29:27The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur
29:31It had to be myself
29:35Five minutes to showtime
29:37We made it
29:38Well?
29:51Do we pull the plug or not?
29:53We're good
29:54Everything's back on track
29:55See?
29:56I knew firing Victoria was the right call
29:59You've got twice your talent
30:01You've got twice your talent
30:03Yeah
30:04Right
30:05This is exactly why I promoted you
30:08Any big sex does not make her
30:16To Victoria
30:18The real hero of mine
30:20Mom, you're insane
30:32I can't believe you actually picked that disaster in under an hour
30:35Couldn't have done it without you
30:37You know, if you start dating before you work together
30:42It doesn't count as an office romance
30:50Well, well, still hanging around
30:52I thought you were too embarrassed to show your face at the after party
30:56Fraud
30:58Holly
30:59Why didn't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:02What are you talking about?
31:04Just ask the models
31:05Any of them
31:08Oh, and Mia
31:10Don't forget about our agreement
31:12Father Andra and Pauline
31:13I will
31:20Two new beginnings that should have been
31:28Speaking of new beginnings
31:31Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:36I want to help
31:37With their education
31:38What?
31:39This and that
31:40That's too much
31:42We barely know each other
31:44Victoria
31:46I've known you since we were 17
31:50I remember
31:52Watching you win that regional competition
31:54In that silver dress
31:56The one you made from scratch
31:59I saw
32:00The way your eyes lit up
32:02When you talked about
32:03Changing the fashion world
32:05You remember that?
32:06I remember everything
32:08I
32:11Have followed your career
32:13All these years
32:14Just
32:15Hoping that our paths would cross again
32:17Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:19You were married
32:19And then you were married
32:23And then you were building your career
32:26And then you were building your career
32:27And the time was
32:28Is that right
32:31Until now
32:32Until now.
32:42I have been away 20 years to do this.
32:58I should probably get this.
33:02Mia?
33:10God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:16That Milan disaster you turned around? Absolute magic.
33:20And now I have an opportunity to put you on the map for good.
33:24Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:28Sean Gosling?
33:32The Sean Gosling?
33:34The one, three-time Oscar winner, people's sexiest man alive.
33:38And if you play our cards right, the next face in the maze only goes anywhere.
33:42They're taking pitches now.
33:44If you pick sewers, this changes everything.
33:48For you, for the brand.
33:50Where it is, she'll advance in the money too.
33:52Land this, Vincent and support Victoria are done.
33:56Seal the deal? I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:02I've got this, Holly. You won't regret it.
34:06God, what am I gonna do? I can't design menswear.
34:16I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:20Moran and Felina are gone too.
34:22I'm completely on my own.
34:24If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:32maybe I can squeeze one more vehicle over.
34:36I'm completely on my own.
34:58Thanks for meeting me. I know things are complicated between us.
35:00You mentioned Miranda and Pauline? Cut to the chase.
35:04We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax.
35:10Moran and Pauline are also on the team.
35:12Moran is excellent with menswear. She can handle this without me.
35:14Please, wait. There's more to it.
35:16After Paris, Holly needs someone to blame for the Fabric disaster.
35:20Moran and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:23I've been fighting for them.
35:25Are you serious?
35:26Pauline's due any day now.
35:28Trust me, I know. This project is our only shot.
35:31If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them off.
35:35Have you worked with Sean before?
35:37No, but I've heard you have.
35:39Ages ago.
35:41I did a jacket frame for the Med Gala.
35:43Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left me alone.
35:48Really? What concept?
35:50Well...
35:56Perfect. She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:00I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:04Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:06I do. Actually, I... I took them with me when I left myself on the boat.
36:10Wait. Miranda went on maternity leave last week. How exactly is she part of this project?
36:14Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's letting her work from home.
36:28Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:32Of course, Vic. Pauline and Grant's jobs are on the line here.
36:48Who is my dad?
36:52Take all the time you need.
36:54Mia, don't make me regret trusting you. Again.
37:00Pumpkin, I need a quick favor. Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:24The Sean Gosselin one with the black sides and lapels?
37:27That's the one. Can you check my home office? It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:33Got it. Grace is snapping for the perfect timing.
37:37Thanks, sweetie. I just need to double check something about that.
37:43Shoulder.
37:47Mom, are you okay?
37:53Miranda? Vic?
37:56Mom! Mom! What's going on?
38:02Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:06Miranda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:10Bills don't pay themselves.
38:12You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
38:18Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:22What?
38:24Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:28After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:32No severance, no copper, or nothing. Just gone.
38:36That's completely illegal.
38:40Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
38:44All at once.
38:46What are the odds, right?
38:48And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours down here.
38:52Her sister, bank of bills keep piling up.
39:02And Mia knew about all this.
39:04Mia...
39:06Front row seat when Hal made an announcement. Didn't even blink.
39:10To be said by her shiny new creative director title.
39:16She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
39:20Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:22What?
39:24That bitch!
39:28This ends now.
39:35Damn it!
39:40Mrs. Cycle.
39:42This is right from Milan.
39:43We need approval by being cleared up.
39:46Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:54What are y'all looking at? Get back to work!
40:01Victoria never treats her.
40:05I heard that.
40:06You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:09Then where is she now?
40:11Gone.
40:12Now I'm in charge.
40:13And if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:16Where is she going?
40:18I don't know.
40:23What the hell is going on here?
40:26Just a great disagreement.
40:28Everything is unneutral.
40:29The gods may pay to tell me it was something presentable.
40:37Of course, I'm just finalizing the city.
40:39Show me.
40:41It's not quite ready for-
40:42Now!
40:48This is garbage.
40:51Absolute garbage!
40:53I just need a little more time.
40:54I don't have more time.
40:55This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:58If your friend gets this deal instead of us.
41:04What's that?
41:10It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:13I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
41:18Get me a wedding design into more mourning.
41:20Or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:44I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:54Right on cue.
41:58Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:01Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:04The absolute nerve of this woman!
42:09She'll get her sketch.
42:10And that's when we're sitting in a trap.
42:13Right.
42:24You're early.
42:26Vic.
42:27I really need that sketch.
42:36I said I'd help.
42:37Not hand over my design.
42:39Polly's all over me about this.
42:41If I don't have something tonight,
42:43Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:47Still lying, Mia.
42:48You'd never learn.
42:50Guess it's payback time.
42:52So, do you want my help or not?
42:55I can walk you through it.
42:56Your design could be just as good.
42:58She's such a snake!
43:01Vic, my stomach is killing me!
43:03Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:07Fine.
43:08You don't touch anything.
43:34I'm sorry, babe.
43:36Survival of the pills.
43:37You just let her take your work?
43:39She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
43:42You know, boss.
43:43We could pitch ourselves.
43:44Go after the same clients.
43:45Show them what real design looks like.
43:47We're not out yet.
43:49We're not out yet.
43:54Thanks, bitch.
43:56You don't have a thought to me.
43:57You just let her take your work.
43:58You just let her take your work?
44:00She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:02You know, boss.
44:03We could pitch ourselves.
44:05Go after the same clients.
44:06Show them what real design looks like.
44:08We're not out yet.
44:09Or there's a revolution rope.
44:22I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:30You're welcome, Mom.
44:34I want you and your team as your men.
44:41Full creative control.
44:44I'm Miranda, your husband's debt.
44:47Handled.
44:48And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:52Mr. Shelley, I...
44:55I'm Pauline, your sister is in good hands.
44:59The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:02She's already prepping for her next surgery.
45:05Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
45:08Don't thank me.
45:09Thank Victoria.
45:11I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:15Vincent, I...
45:17I don't even know what to say.
45:19It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:32I'm speaking with him.
45:38The answer has is to go in the voice in the name of yourора.
45:41The state doesn't want to say you all have potential responsibility.
45:43Then it was about of of its name.
45:44It's about 20 to 40 years ago...
45:45...how do they change their entwickelt value...
45:46...the action was on me when they tried to manipulate people.
45:47I'm trying to do that...
45:48... bracelet 것이 on my side as well.
45:49Because it is about my shop, right?
45:51So I'm trying to put things together I saw you in the back!
45:52I knew I saw a man, but I thought that my colleague.
45:54It's hurting you or not.
45:55Well you told me.
45:56What, I needed to make money with Jason, but I told you!
46:28And you're still here.
46:31Final tweaks, the pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:37You've got Grace to sleep.
46:42Yeah.
46:44And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:49Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
46:52Remember, it's in my private history.
47:03Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:06We don't follow trends, we create them.
47:08Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcalfe moment.
47:19A blend of tradition and boldness.
47:22I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:25What is that bitch doing here?
47:34Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:41My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:47Didn't expect to see you here.
47:49Thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
47:56I multitask.
47:58Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:01You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategy's working wonders.
48:07The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:10And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:14Pregnant woman in Tokyo.
48:16Three excellent movies and one of the CEO.
48:20What's next? The big sale?
48:22Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:24You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:27And what real loyalty looks like.
48:31Sean, glad you could make it. We have something very special to show you.
48:49Vic.
48:53I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl, you never know.
48:57Congratulations.
48:58Thank you, Sean. It's good to see you.
49:01Let's begin the pitches.
49:04You ready to lose?
49:06You're out of your league.
49:08You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:10First up, me and McMichael, Maison Laveau.
49:19Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:20Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:24Next, I'm gonna take a walk.
49:25It's a good walk.
49:26Both of these.
49:27Oh, come on.
49:29Wow.
49:33Thanks.
49:34Next.
49:35Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:36Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:50Beautiful work.
49:51Both, please.
49:57We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:03After careful consideration,
50:05we're rewarding Project 2.
50:10Place on a boat.
50:12Oh, yeah!
50:13Oh my god!
50:14Of course.
50:16This is what we planned all along, wasn't it?
50:28What the hell did you people put me in?!
50:31Are you trying to kill me?!
50:32Mr. Galsing has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:35Who designed this tuxedo?
50:36Did you even read the brief?
50:41I mean...
50:42You must have read the brief. It's not complicated.
50:45It says no synthetic blends.
50:48Blends!
50:49I mean...
50:50There must be some angustique.
50:51Perhaps Nia overlooked something.
50:53A mistake?!
50:54I could have ended up in the emergency room!
50:58Victoria...
50:59Please...
51:00Tell these amateurs...
51:02Bible dress.
51:03I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:13I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's health for a deadline.
51:16And that's why Victoria's the best.
51:18Which actually pays attention.
51:20After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:24The commission goes to...
51:26Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:27Victoria.
51:28Mr. Galsing was just a slip-up!
51:29Mia's design was the front runner all along!
51:30That's why they picked her first!
51:31Maybe everyone should see this.
51:33Wait, Mia!
51:34Wait, Mia! Did you actually steal Victoria's design?!
51:53Not too near low, even for you!
52:03Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my ladders.
52:08And so you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for this life theft.
52:15We thought Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:18We're suspending all collaborations.
52:30Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
52:33You're blacklisted.
52:39Victoria, please.
52:48Victoria, please.
52:51I'll do anything! Please just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years!
52:57You made your choices, Holly. Now you live with that.
53:01I thought you went too far.
53:11Sean Gauzing's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team of Jomen.
53:15Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:27To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
53:31And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
53:39Mom, you might want to see this.
53:41Happy Birthday, Victoria.
53:51Happy Birthday to you!
53:55Guys, look!
54:05Maison Laveau on the brink?
54:07Scandal pushes Tasha and Giant towards bankruptcy.
54:09Ouch! I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:13It's strange, isn't it?
54:15I gave them everything. Late nights, weekends, all the best years and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:29Now it's all crashing down. I thought that felt vindicated. Honestly, it's a weird mix.
54:37Relief, sure. But also a little bit of grief.
54:41Look, who said that our best years are behind us? Look at this!
54:47Jeven pushes for pay, leave and parental support across all industries.
54:53Victoria, this is you! You did this!
54:57Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
55:03Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
55:07Careful, Vincent. And what's about the best part?
55:17I...
55:23Victoria Winter...
55:27Will you marry me?
55:33Yes! A thousand times yes!
55:35Woooo!
55:39Take my heart, lip over your hands
55:43I've spent all my days just trying to find
55:49When
55:51Give me love and listen to me
55:55Good birthday ever!
55:57You came. I thought you'd want to see me, Lucas.
56:05I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:07When word got out you left, clients bailed.
56:11The board freed, numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
56:13I couldn't stop it.
56:15You, Stuart Mace on the vote, into this storm holly.
56:17I know. I know. I know.
56:19I know.
56:21My father...
56:23The stress gave him a heart attack. He wouldn't speak to me anymore.
56:25I destroyed everything.
56:27My thoughts slash and costs can save us, but instead I go to the company.
56:31I'm not sure.
56:33I'm not sure.
56:35I'm not sure.
56:37I'm not sure.
56:39I'm not sure.
56:41I know.
56:43I know.
56:45My father...
56:47The stress gave him a heart attack. He wouldn't speak to me anymore.
56:49I destroyed everything.
56:51My thoughts slash and costs can save us, but instead I go to the company.
56:55I didn't mean to pretend like this.
56:59Maison Laval isn't dead.
57:01I bought it.
57:03Last week.
57:05The brand.
57:07The archives.
57:09Even the debt.
57:11It's part of your van now.
57:13And why would you do that?
57:15To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:23You and Victoria.
57:25To help you do better than I did.
57:28I'll do it differently.
57:31Goodbye, Holly.
57:37Miss Winter, I just...
57:51I want to thank you.
57:53Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
57:57I can keep working and...
57:59Have my baby.
58:01You changed everything.
58:03Congratulations.
58:05Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:07Ready?
58:09Always.
58:11Always.
58:25Always.
58:35And now...
58:37Jovan's new collection designed by Victoria Ventura.
58:41You and explosion...
58:44One of the beautiful things,
58:45One of the beautiful things,
58:46One of the beautiful things,
