00:26Not just fire!
00:28We're all dead!
00:30Not just fire!

00:44One word for me,
00:46your age is poison!
00:48We're all dead!
00:58Enough!
01:00Vic!
01:02Mia, Japanese Indigo.
01:04Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
01:08Pauline,
01:10and Liz Vultures.
01:16Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:2028 minutes?
01:22The whole system takes 15 to reboot!
01:2427 now!
01:2627 minutes!
01:28Holy shit!
01:30Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:32This will shut up!
01:34I swear to God, you are not human!
01:3627 minutes!
01:38Holy shit!
01:40Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:42This will shut up!
01:44I swear to God, you are not human!
01:4627 minutes!
01:48Holy shit!
01:50Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:51This will shatter every record!
01:54Are you okay?
01:56Just Braxton Hicks, nothing to-
01:58Oh my God!
02:00Your water broke!
02:02Oh my God!
02:04Oh my God!
02:06Your water broke!
02:08Oh my God!
02:10Oh my God!
02:12Oh my God!
02:14Oh my God!
02:16Oh my God!
02:17Oh my God!
02:21Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:27Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:29Dad called.
02:31He wanted to know if we should come,
02:33but I told him that he lost his visiting privilege since he decided that his assistance
02:39was more comfortable than ours.
02:41That's my girl!
02:45Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:55But there's a condition.
02:59We need to slash costs.
03:01Immediately.
03:03Layoffs.
03:07That's it without leave.
03:09Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:12Well, just remember, we'll ever clean up that Mulan disaster and get immunity.
03:19In fact, 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.
03:40You 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.
03:51Is this really happening?
03:53She's offering Victoria's job?
03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
04:03But Victoria...
04:04Victoria...
04:05Don't worry, my girl.
04:06That is a sprayer of some fire.
04:13You know that collection I just rescued up?
04:16I hid something in the design.
04:19Your initials and now little graces.
04:22Hold right into the fabric.
04:28And that can give a long runway?
04:30Plus, 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.
04:47His job will keep us afloat.
04:49I love you, Mom.
04:50Holy 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.
05:10I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:20Look, 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 the creative backbone of Ms. Onniveau.
05:55Maternity leave, medical insurance.
05:57These preggos are bleeding us dry.
06:01Everything okay here?
06:05Great timing.
06:07Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
06:10Clear out your desk now.
06:17You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:23I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll.
06:27Three times.
06:30Well, that's ancient history.
06:34The word was fresh blood.
06:36I'm eager to save the entire long collection.
06:43What?
06:44I'm the one who...
06:45Mia, you...
06:50Feel that curve.
06:52That's her signature.
06:54That's what makes it me as a lover.
07:00How could you?
07:01I taught you everything you know.
07:10I wish things were different, Vic.
07:12I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:23What happens to my team?
07:25Miranda pulled all managed for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:30Things got so bad, she had to get hair implants.
07:35Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:40These jobs are their lifelines.
07:42Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:45You can't just throw them away.
07:46Well, actually, legally speaking, we can have no mandated, paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
07:55That's corporate America for you.
07:56Or, we can shift the math.
08:00You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:05Think of it as taking one for the team.
08:10Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
08:14Aunt Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:17They can't lose their jobs.
08:18Come on, Vic.
08:23You say you care about them.
08:25Prove it.
08:26You say you care about them.
08:56That's my severest package after 15 years.
09:05That's what I'm worth to.
09:20Careful.
09:22I got you.
09:26Vincent?
09:29Vincent Chevalier?
09:32Hi.
09:35High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:39Great Victoria Winter has been shown the door after single-handedly saving we saw in the Loyal's Mulan collection.
09:56How do you feel about not having to answer single-minded executives anymore?
10:05Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:10What are you getting at, exactly?
10:13I'm talking about you and me.
10:19Partners.
10:20You're genius.
10:22My money.
10:24No corporate BS.
10:27No one holding you back.
10:28I found a baby to think about now.
10:30I have an empty corner office with you and an attached nursery.
10:36Just saying.
10:37Vincent Chevalier, wow.
10:38I didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin our corporate nexus thrown into the office.
10:42You've got your spine here.
10:56Don't mind me, I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing, triple her salary, corner office.
11:04You know, before the vultures at Elvie or Chanel swooping.
11:09I want to see your dumpster diving now, rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas.
11:15It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head-to-toe.
11:20I mean, the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:26The 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?
11:40Victoria designed all of this.
11:48Actually, those were my designs.
11:50What did you just say?
11:54The spring collection.
11:56The Cartier pieces.
11:58I designed them.
12:00Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
12:03Oops.
12:04Looks like you've been backing your own horse, Vincent.
12:07I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:10Let explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:17So what?
12:18Skitches get past her all the time.
12:19It doesn't really squat.
12:20Maybe she was in the middle, what did they call it?
12:21The dress designer?
12:22And the logo?
12:23The EW, woven in.
12:24Victoria's signature mark.
12:25It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:26Lovely.
12:27Explain it.
12:28Make her shut up.
12:29It's funny.
12:30All those pieces.
12:31All those pieces.
12:32All those pieces.
12:33The Milan collection.
12:34Everyone's losing their heart.
12:35They all have EW and GW so they do.
12:36Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
12:37Her newborn is Grace Winter.
12:38It's just quite a coincidence that those initials for me.
12:39I mean, it's actually three years?
12:40I have to tell her you.
12:41It's really lovely.
12:42My name is Alice.
12:43It's風-shaped.
12:44Yeah, I can't believe it.
12:45Yeah.
12:46How do you talk about it?
12:47I can't believe that.
12:48She's not using it.
12:49Aucine, now I'm in love with the number one.
12:51There's nothing else to do.
12:52How do you talk about it?
12:53You're in love with the world?
12:54Yeah.
12:55Maybe not.
12:56I'm in love with the children.
12:57I can't believe this.
12:58I can't believe this.
12:59You sing that.
13:00I can't believe it.
13:01I can believe it.
13:02But I can't believe it.
13:03It's not.
13:04It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
13:09Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
13:13Well Mia, tell them. Tell them you designed this. Tell them you saved Milan.
13:19The logo, it's... it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:26You lying little bitch!
13:29Black Promotion is for saving the company!
13:35Look at the logo again.
13:37It's not EW or GW.
13:41It's actually two M's, M-M, for McMichael, my last name.
13:50See? One M flipped, one upright.
13:54It's not for Grace or Emily.
13:57It's mine.
13:59That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:02Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two M's.
14:07You manipulate 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.
14:20Come on, Missy. We don't have to see you today.
14:25Okay.
14:27Let me drive you over here.
14:29I have four hours outside.
14:31If I got this, you shouldn't be carrying any more.
14:35Through.
14:38Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:42Just take care of my honor of calling for you.
14:45That's right. Get the hell out of my company.
14:50Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
14:53All of Victoria.
15:03VIP in the station.
15:04Paris fashion week.
15:05Front row.
15:06I feel you'll find it.
15:08Lightning.
15:09Every pregnant woman fired.
15:11All of us.
15:12Just like that.
15:13No severance.
15:14No warning.
15:15Nothing.
15:16But a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:17Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:19The termination people won't practically pay for your sign.
15:20The bonus light right in the star.
15:21Now, I'm not going to slash you.
15:22Your signs are equal, I didn't.
15:23Your signs are equal, I didn't.
15:24Shut up your eyes closed.
15:25I'm not going to slash you.
15:26Your signs are equal, I didn't.
15:27No severance.
15:28No severance.
15:29No warning.
15:30Nothing.
15:31No severance.
15:32No warning.
15:33Nothing.
15:34But a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:35Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:38The termination people won't practically pay for your sign.
15:41The bonus light right in the star.
15:43Now, I'm not going to slash you.
15:45Your signs are eagerly lighted.
15:48Shut up your eyes closed.
15:52Oh my god, mom.
16:02This is insane.
16:04I can't believe we're actually here.
16:06Victoria Winter.
16:07The nuclear dick.
16:09Your mom's basically a legend.
16:10You know that, right?
16:11Yeah.
16:12We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison de Vol.
16:16Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:19Wait.
16:20Maison de Vol?
16:21Well, well.
16:22The queen without her crown embraces us all her presents.
16:23Great with you to show up here.
16:24What's next?
16:25Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:26Leaving so soon.
16:27You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:28Is mommy dearest going to deal with her little career update about getting canned for not cutting
16:33it anymore?
16:34it anymore?
16:35Mom, is that true?
16:36Mom, is that true?
16:37Don't worry.
16:38She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
16:39Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter.
16:40Still pretending she matters.
16:45My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
16:52If Miss Honeyville was putting people like you in charge of the business then maybe deserves
16:59to crush and burn.
17:00Victoria Winter, still pretending she matters.
17:07My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:11If Miss Unable was putting people like you in charge of the business,
17:15then maybe she deserves to crush and burn!
17:18Wow, look at that! It 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?
17:27Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero?
17:32Hey, good news! There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hard-working children.
17:37If paying bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there!
17:41That's enough!
17:46That's enough!
17:48You've always been a fraud, Victoria. You never belonged in this world.
17:52Look at her! A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
17:58That dress...
18:00It's a cheap knockoff.
18:03Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week is not just pathetic.
18:07It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:10What 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!
18:25Now let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:29Take your hands off her now!
18:30Vincent...
18:40You're dismissed.
18:49You're right.
18:54You're right.
18:55I'm from-
18:56Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chenevilliers!
18:59The reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
19:02What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:06That knockoff?
19:08That you're so eager to trash her for?
19:11It's Chauvenne.
19:13Book Couture.
19:15Winter Collection.
19:16Not even released yet.
19:18Fast 10?
19:20300,000.
19:22Wow!
19:23You gave her that.
19:25That's right.
19:26I did.
19:29I 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!
19:39Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight, he's from Hawking Trust Fund.
19:45Victoria's leaving her way to the top.
19:48It's just so predictably desperate.
19:54You really don't understand real talent, do you?
19:57For those of you who don't know me,
20:00I'm Vincent Chenevilliers.
20:03CEO of Chenevilliers.
20:05And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:11I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:14Your 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?
20:27I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:31But in the meantime, what I will do is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:38She won't let you down, boss.
20:40You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier. She's nothing but a has-been.
20:48The show's about to start. Your seats are waiting.
20:52Holy shit. The industry gold boy and the creative powerhouse together? Talk about a power couple. They can build the entire industry.
21:07This isn't over, bitch. Wait till you see what I've prepared for.
21:11I've prepared for her.
21:21So you seriously didn't love my mom since high school?
21:28Some talents.
21:30You recognize me.
21:33Some people do.
21:34Some people do.
21:39Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
21:44This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:47She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:52It's true. She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:56I slaved away on those designs, day and night.
22:00And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:09That's just particularly iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:12Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:16That's enough, Holly.
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.
22:26Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:31That's her real design strategy.
22:34Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
22:36And those kids she's so proud of? Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:41Oh, get you!
22:46Ms. Jenkins, Mrs. Michaels, it's a disaster in there.
22:49There'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 them all?
23:11You cancelling the show because of your incompetence?
23:14This is completely unprofessional.
23:15I 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.
23:33Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:36Mason Velcro appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:39Sources say the entire collection need to cancel, minutes before showtime.
23:42The question on everyone's mind?
23:45Is this the end for the once prestigious fashion weeks?
23:52This show doesn't happen?
23:54You're personally liable for the Breach Actors.
23:57We're talking billions, Holly.
23:59Billions.
24:12Outro music.
24:13Stop.
24:18Go into this!
24:23Now!
24:25Now!
24:27How?! The fiber supplier must have sent us effective materials.
24:31I can't magically... make you dresses in an hour!
24:35You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:37If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:42That's billions of dollars.
24:45Then you better figure something out.
24:47Because if you don't, I'm really fired.
24:49I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
24:52Miss 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.
25:14And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:18We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:22Whoa.
25:32Excuse me.
25:34Excuse me.
25:36It's okay.
25:37I'll be right.
25:44What do you want, Mia?
25:49Vic.
25:50I really need your help.
25:52Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
25:56Look, I know you're furious. I would be too.
26:00But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
26:04What about them?
26:06Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:08If we tank, they're done.
26:10Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:12Please.
26:13If you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out of here.
26:18Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:20Yes, absolutely.
26:22And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:24Please.
26:25Not for me.
26:26For that.
26:27It's weird.
26:28I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make or break show.
26:34What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:38They, they couldn't make it.
26:42Holly cut the travel budget.
26:44Is that right?
26:46Victoria.
26:47I know I don't deserve your help.
26:51They do.
26:53Fine.
26:55I'll help.
26:57But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
27:00Not for you.
27:13Oh my god.
27:14It's Victoria Winter.
27:15A nuclear vec.
27:16I need scissors, thread and fresh lining fabric.
27:19Now.
27:27I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:29Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:31Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:37Can this work?
27:44Vincent.
27:45How did you...
27:47I figured you might need some supplies, so...
27:50I had my assistant bring over JaVan's emergency kit.
27:53This is perfect, but JaVan and Maison Lavo are competitors.
28:00Why would you help them?
28:02I'm not helping them.
28:05I'm helping you.
28:07I 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.
28:16It's yours now.
28:18I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:23Then what do you want?
28:26You.
28:28What?
28:33Your talent.
28:34Your vision.
28:36Come and work as JaVan.
28:39I'm in.
28:41I'll work for you.
28:42Just like that?
28:43Just like that.
28:44Now?
28:46Let me finish my final job for Maison Lavo.
28:50What?
28:51What?
28:52I hate it.
28:53When 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.
29:04I'ma get.
29:05I want me better.
29:07Don't let me change.
29:10I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:15She's doing it in minutes.
29:17What would've taken us hours?
29:19Whoa.
29:20No wonder they call it a nuclear pick.
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.
29:31I've learned how to be myself now.
29:35Five minutes to show time.
29:37We made it.
29:51Well?
29:52Do we pull the plug or not?
29:53We're good.
29:54Everything's back on track.
29:56See?
29:57I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:00You've got twice your talent.
30:02Yeah.
30:03Right.
30:04This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:07Indexes is not makeup.
30:16To Victoria.
30:18The real hero of the night.
30:20Mom, you're insane.
30:32I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:36Couldn't have done it without you.
30:40You know, if you start dating before you work together,
30:43it doesn't count as an office romance.
30:45Well, well.
30:46Still hanging around.
30:47I think you're too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
30:48Fraud.
30:49Holly, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
30:50What are you talking about?
30:51Just ask the models.
30:52Any of them.
30:53Oh, and Mia.
30:54Don't forget about our agreement.
30:55About Miranda and Pauline.
30:56I know.
30:57I know.
30:58I know.
30:59Two new beginnings of the event.
31:00Speaking of me,
31:01I know.
31:02But I know.
31:03I know.
31:04You know,
31:05I can't believe it.
31:06I know.
31:07I know.
31:08You're too excited.
31:09But...
31:10I know.
31:11You're too excited.
31:12I know.
31:13I know.
31:14I know.
31:19I know.
31:21I know.
31:22I know.
31:23I know.
31:24I know.
31:25I know.
31:27I know.
31:28Speaking of new beginnings, Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:35I want to help with their education.
31:38What? Vincent, that's too much. We barely know each other.
31:43Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
31:49I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress,
31:56the one you made from scratch. I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
32:05You remember that?
32:07I remember everything. I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:18Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:20You were married. And then worse. And then you were building your career.
32:28Time was, is that right? Until now.
32:33I have been away 20 years to do this.
32:46I should probably get this.
33:01Mia?
33:14God, I was so right about firing Victoria. That Milan disaster you turned around? Absolute magic.
33:20And now I have an opportunity to put you in the maps for good.
33:24Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:30Sean Gosling? The Sean Gosling?
33:33The very one, three-time Oscar winger, people's sexies and unalive.
33:38And if you play our cards right, the next face needs only both handswear.
33:42They're taking pitches now.
33:44If he picks yours, this changes everything. For you, for the brand.
33:49The brand. Where it is, she'll advance me the brand too.
33:53Land this, Vincent and Sport Victoria are done.
34:01Seal the deal? I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:04I've got this, Holly. You won't regret it.
34:07God, what am I gonna do? I can't design menswear.
34:17I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:20Lorraine and Felina are gone too. I'm completely on my own.
34:25If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:32maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over it.
34:58Thanks for meeting me. I know things are complicated between us.
35:01You mentioned Miranda and Pauline. Cut to the chase.
35:08We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax. Miranda and Pauline are also on the table.
35:12Miranda's 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.
35:20Miranda 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. I did a jacket frame for the Med Gala.
35:43Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left me on at all.
35:48Really? What concept?
35:55Well...
36:09Perfect. She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:12I'll use our design to save my ass and land this project.
36:17Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:21I do.
36:22Actually, I...
36:23I took them with me when I left myself on the boat.
36:27Wait.
36:29Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:31How exactly is she part of this project?
36:33Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's liking her work from home.
36:40Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:43Of course, Vic.
36:45Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:51Who is my dad?
36:53Take all the time you need.
36:55Mia.
36:57Don't make me regret trusting you.
36:59Again.
37:03Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:20Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:24The Sean Gossin one with the black sides and lapels?
37:27That's the one.
37:28Can you check my home office?
37:29It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:34Got it.
37:36Grace is snapping.
37:37For the perfect timing.
37:38Thanks, sweetie.
37:39I just need to double check something about that.
37:44Shoulder.
37:48Mom, are you okay?
37:54Miranda?
37:56Vic?
37:57Mom!
37:58Mom!
38:01Mom!
38:02What's going on?
38:04Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:07Miranda, what happened?
38:08Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:11Bills don't pay themselves.
38:13You make my husband.
38:15Old child with no paycheck.
38:17And now there's a newborn at home.
38:19Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gossin project.
38:24But is that the story she's spinning now?
38:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:34No severance, no copper, nothing.
38:36Just gone.
38:38That's completely illegal.
38:40Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
38:44All at once.
38:45What are the odds, right?
38:47And Polly, marking nine shifts at 24 hours down here.
38:54Her sister, Beckel, bills keep piling up.
38:57And Mia knew about all this.
39:05Mia.
39:07Front row seat when Hal made an announcement.
39:10Didn't blink.
39:12To Beckel's admiring 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.
39:23What?
39:25That bitch!
39:28This ends now.
39:35Damn it!
39:41Miss Encycl, this is right from Milan.
39:44We need approval by you.
39:46Can't you see I'm working on something important?
39:48What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
40:01Victoria never treats us.
40:05I heard that.
40:07You think Victoria is so perfect?
40:10Then where is she now?
40:12Gone.
40:13Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:16What the hell is going on here?
40:17Just a great disagreement. Everything is unneutral.
40:18The Gazi page, tell me it was something presentable.
40:24Of course, I'm just finalizing the city.
40:26Show me.
40:28It's not quite ready for-
40:29Now.
40:30This is garbage.
40:31Absolute garbage.
40:32Absolute garbage.
40:33Absolute garbage.
40:34I just need a little more time.
40:35I don't have more time, I don't have more time.
40:36This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:37If you think it's the steel instead of us, it does don't care.
40:38I don't have more time.
40:39I just need some more time.
40:40This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:42Get ready. Now.
40:49This is garbage!
40:51Absolute garbage!
40:53I just need a little more time.
40:55We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:58If Shufin gets this deal instead of us...
41:04What's that?
41:06It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:14I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil,
41:18get me a wedding design tomorrow morning,
41:20or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:36I still can't believe I'm using this leverage.
41:54Right on cue.
41:58Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:00Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:04The absolute nerve of this woman!
42:09She'll get her sketch.
42:11And that's when we spring the trial.
42:24You're early.
42:25Vic, I really need that sketch.
42:28I said I'd help. Not hand over my design.
42:38Polly's all over me about this.
42:41If I don't have something tonight,
42:43Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:45Still lying, Mia. You'd never learn.
42:49Guess it's payback time.
42:51So, do you want my help or not?
42:54I can walk you through it.
42:56Your design could be just as good.
42:58She's such a snake!
43:00Ugh!
43:02Vic, my stomach is killing me!
43:04Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:06Fine.
43:08But don't touch anything.
43:10Anything.
43:11What do you think?
43:12What do you think?
43:13I'm sorry, ma'am.
43:14Survival of this.
43:15I'm sorry, ma'am.
43:17I'm sorry, ma'am.
43:19I've been really busy with her and didn't say that.
43:20I'm scared.
43:21Maybe your car is great.
43:22I'm scared.
43:23I'm scared.
43:24I'm scared, huh?
43:25I'm scared.
43:26I'm scared, you're scared.
43:28I'm scared.
43:29I'm scared.
43:31You're scared?
43:32Sorry, men. Survival of the pills.
43:51You just let her take your work?
43:53She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
43:58You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:02Go after the same clients. Show them what real design looks like.
44:07We're not out yet.
44:21I heard there's a revolution rope.
44:27I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:32You're welcome, mom.
44:37I want you and your team as your men.
44:42Full creative control.
44:45On Miranda, your husband's debt, handled.
44:48At every casino in the country, it's been told he's not welcome.
44:53Mr. Chevalier, I...
44:56I'm Pauline.
44:57Your sister is in good hands.
45:00The best heart surgeon in the country is already prepping for her next surgery.
45:04Mr. Chevalier.
45:08Don't thank me.
45:10Thank 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.
45:18It's about time.
45:21You all get what you deserve.
45:22It's about time.
45:25You all get what you deserve.
45:26ules.
45:27ペ
45:37I don't want you to.
45:39I don't know.
45:40I don't know.
45:41I just want you to work together.
45:43I, and I don't know.
45:43I don't know.
45:44I don't know.
45:45I'm here.
45:46I don't know why you're going with me.
45:48I'm just doing what you're going for.
45:49You all got what you're going with me.
45:50You all got him in the corner.
45:51I didn't want you to.
46:23And you're still here.
46:31Final tweaks.
46:32The 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.
46:53Remember, smile, cry back to make history.
47:03Maison Laveau sets the bar.
47:06We don't follow trends, we create them.
47:09Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcalfe moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:23I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:32What is that bitch doing here?
47:34Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:42My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:48Didn't expect to see you here.
47:50Thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
47:54I multitask.
47:58Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:02You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategy's working wonders.
48:07The office is so empty, it echoes.
48:09And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:15Pregnant woman in Tokyo, 3X and 3X and I'm the CEO.
48:20What's next?
48:20The bake 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.
48:29Sean, I'm glad you can make it.
48:44We have something very special to show you.
48:49Vic.
48:53I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
48:56You never know.
48:57Congratulations.
48:58Thank you, Sean.
48:59It's good to see you.
49:01Let's begin the pitches.
49:05You ready to lose?
49:06You're out of your league.
49:08You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:18First up, me and McMichael.
49:19Maison Laveau.
49:20Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:41Beautiful work.
49:51Both things.
49:53We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
49:59After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
50:10Maison Laveau.
50:11All right.
50:12Yes.
50:12Oh my god.
50:14Of course.
50:15This is all you planned all along.
50:18What?
50:19What 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.
50:36Who designed this tuxedo?
50:37Did you even read the brief?
50:42I mean, you must have read the brief.
50:44It's not complicated.
50:46It says no synthetic blends.
50:49I mean, it must be some endless tea.
50:51Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
50:54A mistake?
50:55I could have ended up in the emergency room.
50:58Victoria, please, tell these amateurs how you pulled your ass off.
51:10I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:15I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's health for a deadline.
51:17And that's why Victoria is the best, which actually pays attention.
51:22After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:26The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:30Which are right.
51:32Mr. Galsing was just a slip-up.
51:35Mia's designed the front runner all along.
51:38That's why they picked her first.
51:43Maybe everyone should see this.
51:47Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
51:58Not to me, though.
51:59Even for you.
52:04Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my letters.
52:08So you know,
52:09I will be supporting Victoria's case for this like that.
52:15With all the world'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.
52:34Victoria, please.
52:49Victoria, please.
52:52I'll do anything, please.
52:53Just help me save the company, the brand you built for 15 years.
52:58You made your choices, Holly.
52:59Now you live with them.
53:04Why did we go too far?
53:11Sean Galsing's look tonight is a game changer
53:13crafted by the trailblazing team of Jo Men.
53:16Social media is already calling it
53:18The Winter Revolution.
53:19To the best comeback in fashion history
53:30and to the women who made it happen.
53:33And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
53:39Mom,
53:41you might want to see this.
53:42Happy birthday, Victoria.
53:56Happy birthday to you!
54:03Guys, look!
54:06There's only vol on the brink.
54:08The scandal pushes fashion a giant towards bankruptcy.
54:12Ouch!
54:13I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:16It's strange, isn't it?
54:21I gave them everything.
54:23Late nights,
54:25weekends,
54:26all the best years,
54:27and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:29Now it's all crashing down.
54:32I thought that felt vindicated.
54:35Honestly,
54:35it's a weird mix.
54:37Relief,
54:38sure,
54:39but
54:39also a little bit of grief.
54:42Look,
54:42who said that our best years are behind us?
54:45Look at this!
54:48Jo Men pushes for
54:49pay, leave, and parental support
54:51across
54:52all industries.
54:54Victoria, this is you!
54:56You did this!
54:57Here's to a future
54:59where women don't have to choose
55:01between our families and their careers.
55:04Not just for us,
55:05but for every woman who comes after.
55:08Careful, Vincent.
55:10You must find out the best part.
55:17Bye.
55:23Victoria Winter.
55:27Will you marry me?
55:33Yes!
55:34A thousand times yes!
55:36Woo!
55:36Woo!
55:37Woo!
55:40Take my heart, let go for your hands.
55:44I've spent all my days just trying to find a way.
55:52Give me love and listen.
55:56Never.
55:57Never.
55:58Never.
55:59Never.
56:00Never.
56:01Never.
56:02Never.
56:03Never.
56:04Never.
56:05Never.
56:14You came.
56:15I thought you'd want to see me, Lucas.
56:18I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:21When word got out, you left.
56:23Clients bailed.
56:25The board freed.
56:27Members taped.
56:28I couldn't stop it.
56:30You, Steward Mace on the Vaux into this storm, Holly.
56:35I know.
56:36I know.
56:37I know.
56:38My father.
56:40The stress gave him a heart attack.
56:41He wouldn't even speak to me anymore.
56:43I destroyed everything.
56:44My thoughts slashing costs and save us, but instead I gutted the company.
56:57I didn't mean to pretend like this.
57:00I don't know.
57:01I don't know if I was in debt.
57:02I bought it.
57:03I bought it.
57:04Last week.
57:05The brand.
57:06The archives.
57:07Even the debt.
57:08The archives.
57:09Even the debt.
57:10It's part of your van now.
57:13Why?
57:14Why would you do that?
57:16To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:21You and Victoria to help you do better than I did.
57:29I'll do it differently.
57:32Goodbye, Holly.
57:33Miss Winter, I just, I want to thank you.
57:54Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
57:59I can keep working and have my baby.
