00:00:21Come on Ron, waiting for 48 hours!
00:00:25Production starts with these bust designs,

00:00:30Company collapses our careers are over!
00:00:33Come out here and talk to us!
00:00:35We have 8 million tied up in this collection!
00:00:38I am the Bastion at your boat,
00:00:40right now!
00:00:41One word for me,
00:00:42your age is poisoned!
00:00:57Enough!
00:00:59Vic!
00:01:01Mia, Japanese Indigo.
00:01:04Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
00:01:08Pauline, and Liz Vultures.
00:01:15Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
00:01:1928 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
00:01:2327 now.
00:01:25Tick tock.
00:01:45End them. Crisis averted.
00:01:48I swear to God, you are not human.
00:01:5027 minutes!
00:01:52Holy shit! Pre-orders are plenty in!
00:01:55This will shatter every record!
00:02:03Vic!
00:02:04Are you okay?
00:02:07Just...
00:02:08Braxton Hicks.
00:02:09Nothing to-
00:02:13Oh my God, your water broke!
00:02:15Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
00:02:26Multi-tasking is my superpower pumpkin?
00:02:28Dad called.
00:02:30He wanted to know if we should come, but...
00:02:31I told him that he lost his visiting privilege since he decided that his assistance man was more comfortable than ours.
00:02:41That's my girl.
00:02:43That's my girl.
00:02:53Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
00:02:56But there's...
00:02:58a condition.
00:02:59We need to slash costs.
00:03:01Immediately.
00:03:02Layoffs.
00:03:03I have to look without leave.
00:03:04Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
00:03:05Well, just remember.
00:03:06We'll ever clean up that Malayan disaster and get immunity.
00:03:07In fact, um...
00:03:08They deserve a promotion.
00:03:09No way, this Victoria went or saved the company since she's not even there.
00:03:29Boss, the Mulan Collection Crisis, a burden!
00:03:31Boss, the Mulan collection crisis averted. Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:40You saved the entire collection. Impressive.
00:03:44Oh, actually...
00:03:45How about I make you the new creative director, starting today?
00:03:50Oh my god, is this really happening?
00:03:53She's offering Victoria's job?
00:03:56I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
00:04:00But, Victoria...
00:04:05Don't worry, my girl. I'm not useless. I gotta go to some fire.
00:04:13You know that collection I just rescued Ab?
00:04:16I hid something in the design.
00:04:19Your initials and now little graces.
00:04:22Hold right in the fabric.
00:04:25And that's gonna give him a long runaway?
00:04:31Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:35Enough for your full tuition at private school.
00:04:38Mom, you may have to.
00:04:40We're going to that private school.
00:04:42No discussion.
00:04:44Your sister and I will manage just fine.
00:04:46This job will keep us afloat.
00:04:48I love you, Mom.
00:04:49I love you, Mom.
00:05:01Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
00:05:05After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
00:05:12Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
00:05:28What the hell?
00:05:37Listen up, everyone.
00:05:38Victoria Wintour is terminated.
00:05:41Effective immediately.
00:05:43You can't just do that.
00:05:45She's in the hospital having her baby.
00:05:47They're a loss against this.
00:05:49Vic worked while in labor.
00:05:52She's a creative backbone of Maison Nouveau.
00:05:55Maternity leave, medical insurance, these preggos are bleeding us dry.
00:06:01Everything okay here?
00:06:05Great timing.
00:06:07Victoria Wintour, you're fired.
00:06:11Clear out your desk now.
00:06:20You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
00:06:23I saved this company three times when your father could have been here.
00:06:27Three times.
00:06:30Whoa.
00:06:32That's ancient history.
00:06:34The word was fresh blood.
00:06:36And I'm eager to save the entire long collection.
00:06:43What?
00:06:44I'm the one who...
00:06:47Mia, you...
00:06:48Feel that curve.
00:06:49That's her signature.
00:06:50That's what makes it Maison Nouveau.
00:06:51How could you?
00:06:52I taught you everything you know.
00:06:53I taught you everything you know.
00:06:55I wish things were different, Vic.
00:06:57I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:06:58I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:00How could you? I taught you everything you know.
00:07:10I wish things were different, Vic.
00:07:14I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:23What happens to my team?
00:07:25Miranda pulled all of matters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
00:07:31Things cost so bad she had to get hair implants.
00:07:35Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
00:07:40These jobs are their lifelines, health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
00:07:45You can't just throw them away.
00:07:48Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
00:07:50No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
00:07:55That's corporate America for you.
00:07:57Or we can shift the math.
00:08:00You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
00:08:05Think of it as taking one for the team.
00:08:10Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
00:08:14Aunt Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
00:08:16They can't lose their jobs.
00:08:22Come on, Vic.
00:08:23You say you care about them.
00:08:25Prove it.
00:08:27I don't mind.
00:08:28What the fuck, Vic?
00:08:29I don't feel like I'm aestra.
00:08:30No, you don't.
00:08:32I don't, you don't.
00:08:36But I can't leave you with this.
00:08:40I can't leave you with it.
00:08:45Are you ready?
00:08:47Stop it.
00:08:49You didn't leave you in the house and you're an agenda.
00:08:52That's my severest package after 15 years. That's what I'm worth to...
00:09:07Be careful. I got you.
00:09:28Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
00:09:32Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:09:48So, it's true. Great Victoria Winter has been shown the door after single-handedly saving
00:09:55we saw in the Loyals of Milan collection. How do you feel about not having to answer
00:10:03to single-minded executives anymore? Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
00:10:10What are you getting at exactly? I'm talking about you and me. Partners. You're genius. My money. No corporate BS. No one holding you back.
00:10:28I've got a baby to think about now. And I have an empty bar office with you and an attached nursery. Just saying.
00:10:46Vincent Chevalier, wow. Who didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin and our corporate nemesis
00:10:51throwing into the office. Guy who's by here?
00:10:58Don't mind me. I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing, triple her salary, corner office.
00:11:06You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swooping.
00:11:10Oh, so you're dumpster diving now. Rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas?
00:11:16It's an interesting take to have, considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
00:11:23I mean, the jacket, it's Victoria's spring collection, right?
00:11:28The earrings, it's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
00:11:31If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:37Shit, shit, shit.
00:11:39What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this?
00:11:42Actually, those were my designs.
00:11:53What did you just say?
00:11:56The spring collection. The Cartier pieces.
00:11:59I designed them. Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
00:12:04Oops, looks like you've been backing your own horse, Vincent.
00:12:08I thought you were better than this, Mia.
00:12:10Let me explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:22So what? Sketchers get past her all the time. It doesn't free the squat.
00:12:26Maybe she was in the middle of, what do they call it?
00:12:30Best of mine?
00:12:32And the logo?
00:12:33The EW, woven in, Victoria's signature mark. It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:12:42Mommy, explain it. Maybe shut up.
00:12:44It's funny. All those pieces with the Milan collection that everyone's losing on her.
00:12:55They all have EW and GW's still there, too.
00:12:58Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter. Her newborn is Grace Winter.
00:13:03It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
00:13:10Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
00:13:14Well, Mia, tell them. Tell them you designed this. Tell them you saved Milan.
00:13:19The logo, it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:27You lying little bitch!
00:13:30Black Promotions are saving the company.
00:13:36Look at the logo again. It's not EW or GW. It's actually two M's.
00:13:43Two M's. M-M. For McMichael. My last name.
00:13:51See? One M flipped. One upright. It's not for Grace or Emily. It's mine.
00:14:00That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:03Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two M's.
00:14:06You're a manipulator. She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:13You learned well, Mia.
00:14:16Maybe too long.
00:14:18You'll regret this.
00:14:21What?
00:14:23We don't have to save time.
00:14:26Okay. Let me drive you home, okay?
00:14:29I have four hours outside.
00:14:31If I got this, you shouldn't be carrying it anywhere.
00:14:34I have to go through.
00:14:39Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:14:42Just take care of my inner Apollo, Mia.
00:14:48That's right. Get the hell out of my company.
00:14:51Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
00:14:53All of Victoria.
00:15:00VIP in station, Paris Fashion Week. Front row. As you will find it. Enlightening.
00:15:09Every pregnant woman fired. All of us. Just like that. No severance. No warning. Nothing. Like a box of insecurity, Esther.
00:15:29Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
00:15:38The termination people want to have to be paid for your sign.
00:15:41The phone is like right in the star.
00:15:43Now, I'm not air-sashing with you. Your signs are eerily related.
00:15:47Oh my god, mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:06Victoria Wintour. Nuclear pick. Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
00:16:12Yeah.
00:16:14We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison de Vaux.
00:16:17Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:22Wait. Maison de Vaux?
00:16:24Well, well. The Queen Mother Crown embraces us all her presents. Great with you to show up here.
00:16:32What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
00:16:37Leaving so soon? You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:16:41Is mommy dearest going to deal with her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it in the worm?
00:16:49Mom, is that true?
00:16:54Don't worry. She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
00:16:59Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour. Still pretending she matters.
00:17:07My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:17:11If Miss Honeywell is putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she deserves to crush and burn.
00:17:18Well, look at that. It seems entitlement runs in the family.
00:17:21Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
00:17:26That's got a stain, huh?
00:17:28Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid and worships you like some kind of hero?
00:17:32Hey, good news. There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
00:17:38If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
00:17:41That's enough.
00:17:42That's enough.
00:17:46That's enough.
00:17:48You've always been a fraud, Victoria. You never belonged in this world.
00:17:53Look at her. A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
00:17:58That dress. It's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:04Wearing fakes to Paris fashion is not just pathetic.
00:18:07It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
00:18:14What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:18:17Remove that dress.
00:18:18We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
00:18:23Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
00:18:26Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
00:18:30Take your hands off her now.
00:18:35Vincent.
00:18:41You're dismissed.
00:18:49You alright?
00:18:54You alright?
00:18:56Well, Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chamellier.
00:18:59The reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
00:19:03What the hell has he done with Victoria?
00:19:06That knockoff?
00:19:08That you so eager to trash her for?
00:19:11It's Chauvenne.
00:19:13of Couture. Winter Collection.
00:19:15Winter Collection.
00:19:17Not even released yet.
00:19:19Price tag?
00:19:21300,000.
00:19:22Wow!
00:19:24You gave her that.
00:19:25That's right.
00:19:27I did.
00:19:29I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
00:19:33Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
00:19:36Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
00:19:39Mr. Billionaire is not a white knight.
00:19:41He's a walking trust fund.
00:19:45Victoria's sleeping her way to the top.
00:19:48It's just so predictably desperate.
00:19:54You really don't understand real talent, do you?
00:19:58For those of you who don't know me,
00:20:01I'm Vincent Chamellier.
00:20:03CEO of Chamellier.
00:20:04CEO of Chamellier.
00:20:07Yes.
00:20:09I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
00:20:13I have followed your career from a distance for years.
00:20:16Your brilliance.
00:20:18Your principles.
00:20:20Your passion.
00:20:22Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
00:20:26Mom, did you know about this?
00:20:28I'm not gonna pursue anything until she's ready.
00:20:31But in the meantime, what I will do
00:20:34is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
00:20:39She won't let you down, boss.
00:20:41You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chamellier.
00:20:44She's nothing but a has-been.
00:20:46The show's about to start.
00:20:48Your seats are waiting.
00:20:50Holy shit.
00:20:52The industry gold boy and the creative powerhouse together?
00:20:54Talk about a power couple.
00:20:56They come on the entire industry.
00:20:58This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:00Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:01So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
00:21:24Some talents you recognize immediately.
00:21:33Some people do.
00:21:39Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show, I have an important announcement.
00:21:44This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
00:21:47She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
00:21:50It's true. She took my work and passed it off as her own.
00:21:57I slaved away on those designs, day and night.
00:22:02And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
00:22:10That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
00:22:13Your entire career is based on lines of manipulation.
00:22:16That's enough, Holly.
00:22:17That's enough, Holly.
00:22:20Everyone thinks you're a miscreative genius, but I know what you really are.
00:22:24Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
00:22:28Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
00:22:32That's her real design strategy.
00:22:35Stop it, Holly. You're embarrassing yourself.
00:22:37And those kids she's so proud of, who knows who their real fathers are.
00:22:43How dare you!
00:22:47It's a disaster in there. There's something wrong with the collection. It's the fabric.
00:22:54Not now.
00:23:00The primary fabrics are disintegrating onto the lights.
00:23:04The dresses are literally falling apart.
00:23:06We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
00:23:09Is this some kind of sick joke made on the board?
00:23:12Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
00:23:14This is completely unprofessional.
00:23:17I have 10 million invested in this collection.
00:23:20This is breach of contract.
00:23:21It's actually fixable.
00:23:22Paul, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with back-stabbing vultures.
00:23:32Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
00:23:36Masonville 4 appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
00:23:40Sources say the entire collection may be cancelled minutes before showtime.
00:23:43The question on everyone's mind, is this the end for the once prestigious fashion house?
00:23:52This show doesn't happen.
00:23:54You're personally liable for the breach, Antis.
00:23:57We're talking villains, Holly.
00:24:00Villains.
00:24:01어떻게 되십시오
00:24:12Detectives
00:24:14DelTON
00:24:16Tired
00:24:24Abulge
00:24:26A hearsay
00:24:27How? The fiber supplier must have sent us affected materials. I can't magically make you dresses in an hour.
00:24:35You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work. If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
00:24:42That's billions of dollars.
00:24:45Then you better figure something out. Because if you don't, I'm already fired. I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
00:24:57This winter, how do you respond to accusations of her design theft?
00:25:07Is there any truth to how we change in claims about your personal life?
00:25:11Please respect this winter's privacy. And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is. We're gathering evidence as we speak.
00:25:27Excuse me. Excuse me.
00:25:35It's okay. It'll be right.
00:25:44What do you want, Mia?
00:25:49Vic, I really need your help.
00:25:52Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
00:25:56Look, I know you're furious. I would be too.
00:26:01But think about Miranda and Pauline for a second.
00:26:04What about them?
00:26:05Their jobs are on the line with this show.
00:26:08If we tank, they're done. Holly will fire them without a second thought.
00:26:12Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out with you.
00:26:18Miranda and Pauline are responsible for the show.
00:26:21Yes, absolutely. And they're counting on this being a hit.
00:26:26Please, Vic, not for me. For that. That's weird.
00:26:30I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
00:26:34What exactly happened to them, Mia?
00:26:40They, they couldn't make it. Holly cut the travel budget.
00:26:45Is that right?
00:26:47Toria, I know I don't deserve your help.
00:26:51They do.
00:26:53Fine.
00:26:55I'll help.
00:26:58But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
00:27:01Not for you.
00:27:13Oh my god.
00:27:14It's Victoria Winter.
00:27:16A nuclear veck.
00:27:17I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric, now.
00:27:27I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
00:27:29Regular fuchsia won't work with this fabric.
00:27:31Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
00:27:37Will this work?
00:27:39Vincent, how did you...
00:27:48I figured you might need some supplies, so...
00:27:50I had my assistant bring over Joven's emergency kit.
00:27:54This is perfect, but...
00:27:58Joven had made some of our competitors.
00:28:00Why would you help them?
00:28:02I'm not helping them.
00:28:06I'm helping you.
00:28:08I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
00:28:12I have a design I've been saving.
00:28:14Something special I've never shown anyone.
00:28:17It's yours now.
00:28:18I don't want your design, Victoria.
00:28:22Then what do you want?
00:28:24You.
00:28:26What?
00:28:28Your talent.
00:28:34Your vision.
00:28:35Come and work as you're in.
00:28:39I'm in.
00:28:41I'll work for you.
00:28:43Just like that?
00:28:44Just like that.
00:28:45Now?
00:28:46Let me finish my final job for my solo bell.
00:28:49I'll work for you.
00:28:53I hate it.
00:28:55When I call it cool.
00:28:57I wish I was cool.
00:28:59Like I knew it was cool.
00:29:01I regret it.
00:29:02So I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get.
00:29:05I want me better.
00:29:08Don't ever change.
00:29:11I'ma be proud of my name.
00:29:16She's doing it in minutes.
00:29:18What would've taken us hours?
00:29:20Whoa.
00:29:21No wonder they call it a nuclear beck.
00:29:23It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
00:29:27The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
00:29:31Learned how to be myself.
00:29:35Five minutes till showtime.
00:29:37We made it.
00:29:51Well?
00:29:52Do we pull the plug or not?
00:29:54We're good.
00:29:55Everything's back on track.
00:29:57See?
00:29:58I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
00:30:00You've got twice your talent.
00:30:03Yeah.
00:30:04Right.
00:30:05This is exactly why I promoted you.
00:30:07Any big sizes do not make them.
00:30:16To Victoria.
00:30:18The real hero of the night.
00:30:30Mom, you're insane.
00:30:32I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
00:30:36Couldn't have done it without you.
00:30:38You know, if you start dating before we work together, it doesn't help as an office romance.
00:30:46Well, well, still hanging around.
00:30:52I think you're too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
00:30:56Fraud.
00:30:58Holly, why didn't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
00:31:01What are you talking about?
00:31:03Just ask the models.
00:31:05Any of them.
00:31:07Oh, and Mia.
00:31:09Don't forget about our agreement.
00:31:11About Miranda and Pauline.
00:31:13I need to know.
00:31:15I need to know.
00:31:17I need to know.
00:31:18I need to know.
00:31:19I need to know.
00:31:21So, what are you doing for doing such a thing?
00:31:29Speaking of new beginnings.
00:31:31Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
00:31:34I want to help...
00:31:37...with their education.
00:31:39What? This and that. That's too much. We barely know each other.
00:31:44Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
00:31:50I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress, the one you made from scratch.
00:31:59I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
00:32:05You remember that?
00:32:06I remember everything.
00:32:10I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
00:32:18Why didn't you ever reach out?
00:32:20We were married.
00:32:23And then you were born.
00:32:24And then you were building your career.
00:32:28Timing just is now right.
00:32:32Until now.
00:32:33I have been waiting for 20 years to do this.
00:32:46I should probably get this.
00:33:01Mia?
00:33:14God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
00:33:17That Milan disaster you turned around?
00:33:19Absolute magic.
00:33:20And now I have an opportunity that I can put you on the map for good.
00:33:25Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
00:33:31Sean Gosling?
00:33:32He's Sean Gosling?
00:33:33The very one, three-time Oscar winner, people's sexiest man alive.
00:33:38And if you play our cards right, the next place in the maze only goes anywhere.
00:33:43They're taking pitches now.
00:33:45If he picks yours, this changes everything.
00:33:48For you, for the brand.
00:33:51Where it is, she'll land in the right too.
00:33:54Land this.
00:33:55Vincent and his poor Victoria are done.
00:33:57I've got this, Holly.
00:34:06You won't regret it.
00:34:14God, what am I going to do?
00:34:16I can't design menswear.
00:34:18I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
00:34:21Miranda and Felina are gone too.
00:34:23I'm completely on my own.
00:34:25And if Holly bought that I saved one and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
00:34:33maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over.
00:34:36Thanks for meeting me.
00:34:59I know things are complicated between us.
00:35:01You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
00:35:04Cut to the chase.
00:35:08We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tax.
00:35:11Miranda and Pauline are also in the team.
00:35:12Miranda's excellent with menswear.
00:35:14She can handle this without me.
00:35:15Please, wait.
00:35:16There's more to it.
00:35:17After Paris, Holly needs someone to blame for the Fabric disaster.
00:35:21Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
00:35:24I've been fighting for them.
00:35:26Are you serious?
00:35:27Pauline's due any day now.
00:35:29Trust me, I know.
00:35:30This project is our only shot.
00:35:32If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them off.
00:35:36Have you worked with Sean before?
00:35:38No, but I've heard you have.
00:35:40Ages ago.
00:35:42I did a jacket frame for the Med Gala.
00:35:45Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept right before I left me on the ball.
00:35:49Really?
00:35:50What concept?
00:35:51Well...
00:35:58Perfect.
00:35:58She's handing everything over without even realizing.
00:36:13I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
00:36:16Do you still have any of the sketches on her?
00:36:21I do.
00:36:23Actually, I took them with me when I left me on the ball.
00:36:28Wait.
00:36:30Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
00:36:32How exactly is she a part of this project?
00:36:34Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's liking her work from home.
00:36:39Is the company covering your health insurance?
00:36:43Of course, Vic.
00:36:46Pauline and Rhett's jobs are on the line here.
00:36:51It was my day.
00:36:53Take all the time you need.
00:36:55Mia.
00:36:57Don't make me regret trusting you.
00:36:59Again.
00:37:00Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
00:37:20Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything was sideways?
00:37:24The Sean Gosselin one with the black hats and lapels?
00:37:27That's the one.
00:37:28Can you check my home office?
00:37:30It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
00:37:35Got it.
00:37:36Grace is snapping.
00:37:37The perfect timing.
00:37:38Thanks, sweetie.
00:37:39I just need to double check something about that.
00:37:45Shoulder.
00:37:46Distortion.
00:37:48Mom, are you okay?
00:37:54Miranda?
00:37:56Vic?
00:37:58Mom, mom, what's going on?
00:38:04Emily, I'll call you right back.
00:38:07Miranda, what happened?
00:38:09Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
00:38:12Bills don't pay themselves.
00:38:14You've made my husband, an old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
00:38:20Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the casting project.
00:38:23But, isn't that the story she's spinning now?
00:38:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
00:38:34Your severance, no copper, nothing.
00:38:36Just gone.
00:38:38That's completely illegal.
00:38:40Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
00:38:46All at once.
00:38:47What are the odds, right?
00:38:50And Polly, marking nine shifts at 24 hours down here.
00:38:54Her sister, Becca Billsky, piling up.
00:38:57And Mia knew about all this.
00:39:05Mia.
00:39:07Front row seat when Hull made an announcement.
00:39:10Didn't even blink.
00:39:12To be said by her shiny new creative director title.
00:39:16She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me.
00:39:20Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
00:39:23What?
00:39:25That bitch.
00:39:28This ends now.
00:39:35Damn it.
00:39:41Ms. Cycle, this is Rai from Milan.
00:39:44We need a group of lightnings for that.
00:39:46Can't you see I'm working on something important?
00:39:58What are you all looking at?
00:40:00Get back to work.
00:40:02Victoria would never treat us in this.
00:40:05I heard that.
00:40:07You think Victoria is so perfect?
00:40:10Then where is she now?
00:40:11Gone.
00:40:12Now I'm in charge, and if anyone has a problem with that, there's a door.
00:40:17What the hell is going on here?
00:40:26Just a great disagreement.
00:40:29Everything's in control.
00:40:30Mr. Goss and Pitch, tell me it was something presentable.
00:40:37Of course, I'm just finalizing the details.
00:40:39Show me.
00:40:41It's not quite ready.
00:40:42Now.
00:40:48This is garbage.
00:40:51Absolute garbage.
00:40:53I just need a little more time.
00:40:55We don't have more time.
00:40:56This is Sean Goss and we're talking about.
00:40:58If she then gets this deal instead of us...
00:41:00What's that?
00:41:05It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
00:41:15I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:41:18Get me a way to design with tomorrow morning.
00:41:21Or pack up your desk by lunch.
00:41:23I still can't believe you're using this as leverage.
00:41:49Right on cue.
00:41:58Meet that sketch ASAP.
00:42:01Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:42:05The absolute nerve of this woman.
00:42:09She'll get her sketch.
00:42:11And that's when we spin the trap.
00:42:13You're early.
00:42:26Vic, I really need that sketch.
00:42:33Shh.
00:42:36I said I'd help.
00:42:38Not hand over my design.
00:42:40Holly's all over me about this.
00:42:42If I don't have something tonight,
00:42:44Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:42:47Still lying, Mia.
00:42:49You'd never learn.
00:42:50Guess it's payback time.
00:42:52So, do you want my help or not?
00:42:55I can walk you through it.
00:42:56Your design could be just as good.
00:42:59She's such a snake.
00:43:02Vic, my stomach is killing me.
00:43:05Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
00:43:08Fine.
00:43:09Don't touch anything.
00:43:10Sorry, man.
00:43:37Survival of the business.
00:43:38You just let her take your work?
00:43:53She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
00:43:58You know, boss.
00:44:00We could pitch ourselves.
00:44:02Go after the same clients.
00:44:04Show them what real design looks like.
00:44:06We're not out yet.
00:44:20Or there's a revolution room.
00:44:27Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
00:44:29I want you and your team as your men.
00:44:42Full creative control.
00:44:45Oh, Miranda, your husband's debt.
00:44:48Handled.
00:44:49And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
00:44:52Mr. Chevalier, I...
00:44:54Mr. Chevalier, I...
00:44:55I'm Pauline.
00:44:57Your sister is in good hands.
00:45:00The best heart surgeon in the country.
00:45:02She's already prepping for her next surgery.
00:45:05Mr. Chevalier!
00:45:07Thank you!
00:45:08Don't thank me.
00:45:10Thank Victoria.
00:45:11I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:45:13Mr. Chevalier, I don't even know what to say.
00:45:20It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:46:04And you're still here.
00:46:31Final tweaks, the pitch goes out tomorrow.
00:46:34You've got Grace to sleep.
00:46:41Yeah.
00:46:44And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
00:46:49Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
00:46:53Remember, it's my right after my history.
00:47:00Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:47:05We don't follow trends, we create them.
00:47:12Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcalfe moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
00:47:22I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
00:47:29What is that bitch doing here?
00:47:34Thank you Mr. Jenkins for clearing out your best talent.
00:47:41My company is thriving because of your generosity.
00:47:48Didn't expect to see you here.
00:47:50Thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
00:47:54I multitask.
00:47:55Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:48:01You know Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
00:48:06The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:48:09And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
00:48:14Proud new woman in Tokyo.
00:48:16Three excellent movies and a live CEO.
00:48:19What's next?
00:48:20The base sale?
00:48:22Laugh all you want Holly.
00:48:24You're about to see what real T-Mart looks like.
00:48:27And what real loyalty looks like.
00:48:30Sean, I'm glad you can make it.
00:48:44We have something very special to show you.
00:48:49Vic.
00:48:53I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl, you never know.
00:48:56Congratulations.
00:48:57Thank you, Sean.
00:48:59It's good to see you.
00:49:01Let's begin the pitches.
00:49:04You ready to lose?
00:49:06You're out of your league.
00:49:07You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
00:49:17First up, me and McMichael, Maison Laveau.
00:49:29Next, Victoria, Miranda and Pauline.
00:49:36Good luck.
00:49:50Beautiful work. Both. Please.
00:49:57We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:50:03After careful consideration, we're rewarding Project 2...
00:50:10Maison de Gaulle.
00:50:12Oh, yeah!
00:50:13Oh my god!
00:50:14Of course.
00:50:16This is what we planned all along.
00:50:18Wasn't it?
00:50:20What the hell did you people put me in? Are you trying to kill me?
00:50:33Mr. Gaulle has a serious allergy to synthetic silk. Who designed a tuxedo?
00:50:37Did you even read the brief?
00:50:41I mean, you must have read the brief. It's not complicated.
00:50:45It says no synthetic blends. I mean...
00:50:50Must be some kind of mistake. Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
00:50:53A mistake? I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:50:58Victoria, please, tell these amateurs how you pulled your glasses off.
00:51:03I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic. I'd never risk Mr. Gaulle's health for a deadline.
00:51:18And that's why Victoria is the best. Which actually pays attention.
00:51:21After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
00:51:26The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline for that.
00:51:32Mr. Gaulle was just a slip-up. He has designed the front runner all along. That's why they picked her first.
00:51:39Maybe everyone should see this.
00:51:49Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:51:53Victoria's design?
00:51:58That's a new low. Even for you.
00:52:04Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
00:52:08And so you know, I will be supporting Victoria's case for this like that.
00:52:15We thought Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:52:18We're suspending all collaborations.
00:52:30Don't even think about Tronland anywhere else.
00:52:33You're blacklisted.
00:52:39Victoria, please.
00:52:48I'll do anything, please. Just help me save the company, the brand that you built for 50 years.
00:52:57You made your choices, Holly. Now you live with them.
00:53:04I thought you went too far.
00:53:11Sean Gauzing's ultimate is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team at Jo Bend.
00:53:15Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
00:53:28To the best comeback in fashion history.
00:53:30And to the women who made it happen.
00:53:33And to the materially that actually means something.
00:53:39Mom, you might want to see this.
00:53:42Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:53:43Happy birthday to you!
00:53:44Happy birthday to you!
00:53:45Nice! Look!
00:53:48Visual media is a good idea.
00:53:49Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:53:52Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:53:54Happy birthday to you!
00:53:55Happy birthday to you!
00:54:00Nice! Look!
00:54:01Nice. Look!
00:54:05Maison Léval on the brink? Scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:54:11Ouch! I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
00:54:15It's strange, isn't it?
00:54:21I gave them everything. Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
00:54:30Now it's all crashing down. I thought I felt vindicated. Honestly, it's a weird mix. Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
00:54:41Look, who said that our best years are behind us? Look at this!
00:54:47Jeven pushes for pay, leave, and parental support across all industries.
00:54:53Victoria, this is you! You did this!
00:54:57Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
00:55:03Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
00:55:08Careful, Vincent. You must forgot the best part.
00:55:12I'm Victoria Winter. Will you marry me?
00:55:33Yes! A thousand times yes!
00:55:36Woohoo!
00:55:48Woohoo!
00:55:56It's forever!
00:55:57You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this.
00:56:18It came because I wanted to hear it from you.
00:56:20When word got out you left. Clients bailed. The board freed. Numbers named. I couldn't stop it.
00:56:30You stood based on the boat into this storm, Holly.
00:56:38I know. I know.
00:56:42My father. The stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
00:56:48I destroyed everything.
00:56:50My thoughts slashing costs and save us, but instead I go to the company.
00:56:57I didn't mean to pretend like this.
00:57:00I'm example of I was in debt.
00:57:03I bought it.
00:57:05Last week.
00:57:07The brand.
00:57:08The archives.
00:57:09Even the debt.
00:57:11It's part of Jeven now.
00:57:13If you'd be glad, why would you do that?
00:57:15To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
00:57:23You and Victoria.
00:57:26To help you do better than I did.
00:57:29I'll do it differently.
00:57:32Goodbye, Holly.
00:57:45Miss Wintour.
00:57:49Miss Wintour.
00:57:51I just...
00:57:52I want to thank you.
00:57:54Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
00:57:59I can keep working and...
00:58:02have my baby.
00:58:04You changed everything.
00:58:07Congratulations.
00:58:09Wishing you and your little one after calculus.
00:58:11Yes.
00:58:21Ready?
00:58:25Always.
00:58:26You changed everything.
00:58:28And now, Jovan's new collection, designed by Victoria Ventura and the two.
00:58:30We can't go on.
00:58:32Every last minute on earth.
00:58:34We can't go on.
00:58:36Let it be a second chance.
00:58:38Now.
00:58:39Jovan's new collection, designed by Victoria Ventura and the two.
00:58:42Yes!
00:58:44We can't go on.
00:58:46Every last minute on earth.
00:58:48We can't go on.
00:58:50So we're going to be a second chance.
00:58:51I'm sorry.
00:58:52I'm sorry.
00:58:53I'm sorry.
00:58:54Sean Gauzing's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing team of Joe Men.
00:59:04Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
00:59:14To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
00:59:20And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
00:59:24Mom, you might want to see this.
00:59:38Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:59:43Happy birthday to you!
00:59:49Guys, look!
00:59:51There's only a hole on the brink, the scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:59:58Ouch!
00:59:59I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
01:00:01It's strange, isn't it?
01:00:04I gave them everything.
01:00:10Late nights, weekends, all the best years and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
01:00:16Now it's all crashing down. I thought that felt vindicated.
01:00:21Honestly, it's a weird mix.
01:00:23Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
01:00:28Look! Who said that our best years are behind us? Look at this!
01:00:33She then pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
01:00:40Victoria, this is you! You did this!
01:00:44Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
01:00:50Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
01:00:54Careful, Vincent. You must run out the best part.
01:00:58I am Victoria Winter. Will you marry me?
01:01:20Yes! A thousand times yes!
01:01:23Woohoo!
01:01:28Woohoo!
01:01:32Woohoo!
01:01:40Give me love and listen to me.
01:01:44Never!
01:01:45Yay!
01:01:46That's a nice one.
01:01:48You came. I thought you'd want to see me leave this.
01:02:05I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
01:02:08When word got out you left.
01:02:10Clients bailed.
01:02:13The board freed.
01:02:14Numbers tanked.
01:02:16I couldn't stop it.
01:02:18You, Steward Mace on the boat, into this storm, Holly.
01:02:25I know. I know.
01:02:29My father.
01:02:31The stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
01:02:36I destroyed everything.
01:02:39My thoughts slashed in costs and saved us, but instead I got to the company.
01:02:45I didn't mean to pretend like this.
01:02:47I mean, I don't know if I was in debt. I bought it. Last week.
01:02:54The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of J'Van now.
01:03:00If you'd be glad, why would you do that?
01:03:03To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
01:03:08You and Victoria, they helped me do better than I did.
01:03:16I'll do it differently.
01:03:19Goodbye, Holly.
01:03:21Miss Winter, I just, I want to thank you.
01:03:40Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
01:03:46I can keep working and have my baby.
01:03:51You changed everything.
01:03:55Congratulations.
01:03:56Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
01:03:58Ready?
01:04:10Always.
01:04:13And now, Jovan's new collection, designed by Victoria Ventura and Mrs.
