09:48so it's true
09:52great victoria winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving he's on
09:56lebeau's milan collection
10:01how would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore
10:08someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this
10:12what are you getting at exactly i'm talking about you and me
10:17partners you're genius my money no corporate bs no one holding you back
10:28i've got a baby to think about now and i have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery
10:39i'm just saying
10:46vincent chevalier wow i didn't expect to see the head of joe venn our corporate nemesis strolling into the office
10:54got your spine here
10:58don't mind me i'm just giving victoria here
11:00a soft landing
11:03triple her salary corner office
11:06you know before the vultures at ld or chanel swoop in
11:11oh so you're dumpster diving now rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas
11:17wow that'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 earrings it's victoria's collaboration with
11:30cartier if her work is so far beneath you then maybe you should just strip
11:38shit shit shit what are you talking about victoria designed all of this
11:42actually those were my designs
11:54what did you just say the spring collection the cartier pieces i designed them under your supervision
12:02of course but they came from me oops looks like you've been backing the wrong horse vincent
12:09i thought you were better than this mia
12:13then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago
12:23so what sketches get passed around all the time it doesn't prove squat
12:27maybe she was your little what do they call it dress designer
12:32and the logo
12:36the ew woven in victoria's signature mark
12:39it's been on every major piece she's designed for years
12:42it's funny all those pieces from the milan collection that everyone's losing it over
12:55they all have ew and gw somewhere too victoria's daughter is emily winter her newborn is grace winter
13:04winter it's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs mia
13:11is 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
13:21the logo it's it's adapted based on traditional motifs
13:27you lying little bitch
13:29i thought the motion was for saving the company
13:37look at the logo again
13:38it's not ew or gw it's actually two m's mm for mcmichael my last name
13:48see one m flipped one upright it's not for grace or emily
13:58it's mine that is absolutely ridiculous oh my god she's right it does look more like two m's
14:09you manipulative bitch you really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer
14:15you learned well mia maybe too well you'll regret this
14:20you're not going to be able to do anything you're going to do anything you're going to be able to do anything

20:42you're making a complete ass of yourself chevalier she's nothing but a has-been

21:24so you seriously been in love with my mom since high school
21:26some talents you recognize immediately some people too
21:41ladies and gentlemen before we kick off tonight's show i have an important announcement
21:46this woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief she's been stealing designs for my creative director for years
21:52it's true she took my work and passed it off as her own i've slaved away on those designs day and night
22:05and victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own
22:12that's just the tip of the iceberg isn't it victoria your entire career is based on lies and manipulation
22:18that's enough holly everyone thinks you're this creative genius but i know what you really are
22:26your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent did you know she slept with
22:32half the executives in the industry that's her real design strategy stop it holly you're embarrassing
22:38yourself and those kids she's so proud of who knows who their real fathers are
22:43how dare you miss jenkins miss michael's it's a disaster in there there's something wrong with
22:54the collection it's the fabric not now
23:02the primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights the dresses are literally falling apart
23:09we've only got 50 minutes left until showtime is this some kind of sick joke mesomovale are you
23:14canceling the show because of your incompetence this is completely unprofessional i have 10
23:20million invested in this collection this is breach of contract
23:27it's actually fixable
23:31you can't seriously be thinking about helping you backstabbing vultures
23:34breaking news from paris fashion week mason bill foe appears to be imploding underneath new leadership
23:42sources say the entire collection may be cancelled minutes before showtime
23:46the question on everyone's mind is this the end for the once prestigious fashion books
23:55this show doesn't happen you're personally liable for the breach penalties
23:59it's just we're talking billions homie billions
24:13What is this?
24:28Now.
24:30How?
24:30The fabric supplier must have sent us defective materials.
24:34I can't magically make new dresses in an hour.
24:37You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work.
24:40If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:45That's billions of dollars.
24:48Then you better figure something out.
24:50Because if you don't, not only are you fired, I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
25:05Miss Winter, how do you respond of accusations over design theft?
25:11Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:15Please respect Miss Winter's privacy.
25:18And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is.
25:22We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:24Excuse me.
25:38Excuse me.
25:39It's okay, punk.
25:41I'll be right back.
25:47What do you want, Mia?
25:49Vic, I really need your help.
25:56Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
26:00Look, I know you're furious.
26:03I would be too.
26:05But think about Miranda and Philippe for a second.
26:08What about them?
26:09Their jobs are on the line with this show.
26:11If we tank, they're done.
26:13Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:15Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out here.
26:22Miranda and Pauline are responsible for this show.
26:25Yes, absolutely.
26:26And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:29Please, Vic, not for me.
26:32For them.
26:33For it's weird.
26:33I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
26:38What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:44They...
26:44They couldn't make it.
26:46Holly cut the travel budget.
26:49Is that right?
26:51Victoria,
26:52I know I don't deserve your help.
26:56They do.
26:57Fine.
27:00I'll help.
27:02But I'm doing this for Miranda and Pauline.
27:04Not for you.
27:16Oh my god.
27:18It's Victoria Winter.
27:19The nuclear beck.
27:20I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric.
27:23Now.
27:23I need royal fuchsia for this stitching.
27:33Regular fuchsia won't work for this fabric.
27:35Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:41Would this work?
27:48Vincent,
27:49how did you...
27:51I figured you might need some supplies.
27:53So,
27:54I had my assistant bring over Joven's emergency kit.
27:59This is perfect, but
28:01Joven and Maison Lavo are competitors.
28:04Why would you help them?
28:07I'm not helping them.
28:10I'm helping you.
28:12I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:15I have a design I've been saving.
28:17Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:21It's yours now.
28:23I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:26Then what do you want?
28:29You.
28:32What?
28:32You're a talent.
28:37You're a vision.
28:40Come and work.
28:41As you've been.
28:43I'm in.
28:44I'll work for you.
28:46Just like that?
28:47Just like that.
28:49Now,
28:50let me finish my final job for Maison Lavo.
28:52I hate it when I call on school.
29:00I wish I was cool.
29:02Like the new girl at school.
29:05I regret it.
29:06So I'ma get,
29:07I'ma get,
29:07I'ma get,
29:08I'ma get it.
29:09I won't be bad.
29:12Don't ever change.
29:15I'm gonna be proud of my name.
29:18She's doing it in minutes.
29:21What would have taken us hours?
29:24Whoa.
29:25No wonder they call her the nuclear vic.
29:27It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
29:31The woman I replace making me look like an amateur.
29:39Five minutes till showtime.
29:41We made it.
29:47Woo!
29:48Five minutes till showtime.
29:55Well?
29:56Do we pull the plug or not?
29:57We're good.
29:58Everything's back on track.
30:00See?
30:01I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
30:04You've got twice her talent.
30:07Yeah.
30:08Right.
30:09This is exactly why I promoted you.
30:11You fix this,
30:13not make them.
30:13To Victoria.
30:22The real hero of the night.
30:24Mom, you're insane.
30:37I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:40I couldn't have done it without you.
30:42You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
30:49Well, well, still hanging around.
30:56I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after-party.
31:00Fraud.
31:02Pauline, why don't you ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
31:05What are you talking about?
31:07Just ask the models.
31:09Any of them.
31:12Oh, and Mia.
31:13Don't forget about our agreement.
31:15About Miranda and Pauline.
31:17I won't.
31:18Two new beginnings at Chauvin.
31:32Speaking of new beginnings,
31:35Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:39I want to help.
31:41With her education.
31:42What?
31:44Vincent, that's too much.
31:46We barely know each other.
31:47Victoria,
31:49I've known you since we were 17.
31:53I remember
31:54watching you win that regional competition
31:57in that silver dress,
32:00the one you made from scratch.
32:02I saw
32:03the way your eyes lit up
32:05when you talked about
32:06changing the fashion world.
32:09You remember that?
32:11I remember everything.
32:12I have followed your career
32:17all these years,
32:18just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:22Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:24We were married.
32:27And then you were...
32:28And then you were building your career.
32:31And the timing just...
32:33was never right.
32:34Until now.
32:46I have been waiting
32:4720 years to do this.
32:50I should probably get this.
33:05Mia?
33:06God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:20That Milan disaster you turned around?
33:23Absolute magic.
33:24And now I have an opportunity
33:26that could put you on the map for good.
33:29Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo
33:31for the Oscars' red carpet.
33:34Sean Gosling?
33:36The Sean Gosling?
33:38The very one.
33:39Three-time Oscar winner,
33:40People's Sexiest Man Alive,
33:42and if you play our cards right,
33:44the next face of the Maison
33:45that goes elsewhere.
33:47They're taking pitches now.
33:48If he picks yours,
33:50this changes everything.
33:51For you.
33:52For the brand.
33:54Where it is,
33:55Jovan's in the running too.
33:57Land this.
33:58Vincent and his poor Victoria are done.
34:04Seal the deal?
34:05I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:08I've got this, Holly.
34:09You won't regret it.
34:10You won't regret it.
34:18God, what am I gonna do?
34:19I can't design menswear.
34:22I barely pulled off the woman's
34:23with Victoria's help.
34:25Miranda and Pauline are gone too.
34:27I'm completely on my own.
34:30If Holly bought that I saved Milan
34:33and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:36maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over.
35:02Thanks for meeting me.
35:03I know things are complicated between us.
35:05You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
35:07Cut to the chase.
35:12We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tucks.
35:14Miranda and Pauline are also...
35:16Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:17She can handle this without me.
35:18Please, wait.
35:19There's more to it.
35:21After Paris, Holly needed someone
35:22to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:25Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:28I've been fighting for them.
35:29Are you serious?
35:31Pauline's due any day now.
35:33Trust me, I know.
35:34This project is our only shot.
35:35If we land it,
35:36I can convince Holly to keep them both.
35:39Have you worked with Sean before?
35:41No, but I've heard you have.
35:44Ages ago.
35:46I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala.
35:48Actually, I was sketching in your tuxedo concept frame
35:50right before I left Maison alone.
35:53Really? What concept?
35:54Well...
35:59Perfect. She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:03I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:07Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:08I do.
36:09Actually, I...
36:10I took them with me when I left Maison Laveau.
36:11Wait.
36:12Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:13How exactly is she part of this project?
36:14Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have,
36:15Holly's letting her work from home.
36:16It's perfect.
36:17It's perfect.
36:18She's handing everything over without even realizing.
36:19I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
36:21Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
36:25I do.
36:26I can't see...
36:27What do you think?
36:28I?
36:29I'm sorry.
36:30I'm sorry.
36:31I didn't think I didn't even know.
36:32I was scared of myself.
36:33I didn't even know how about my body.
36:34I can't take it.
36:35I can't take it.
36:36I don't know.
36:37I feel great.
36:38So, Jacob...
36:39I don't know, Jacob...
36:40I'll do it.
36:41I found this.
36:42I can't take it.
36:43I did.
36:44I'm some tears.
36:45I can't take it.
36:46No, no, I had two more tears.
36:48I can't take it.
36:49Who was being here.
36:50What did I do?
36:51What did she do?
36:52I remember.
36:53I did.
36:54I was going to find two.
36:55take all the time you need it. Mia, don't make me regret trusting you. Again.
37:04Pumpkin, I need a quick favor. Remember that tuxedo
37:25sketch I was working on before everything went sideways? The Shawn Gosselin one with
37:29the black satin lapels? That's the one. Can you check my home office? It should be in
37:35the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025. Got it. Grace is napping. The perfect timing.
37:41Thanks, sweetie. I just need to double check something about the shoulder.
37:49Mom, are you okay? Miranda? Vic?
38:04Mom! Mom! What's going on? Emily, I'll call you right back. Miranda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:14Bills don't pay themselves. You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
38:23Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:27What? Is that the story she's spinning now? After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:37No severance, no copper, and nothing. Just gone. That's completely illegal.
38:44Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some buried performance clause. All at once. What are the odds, right?
38:52And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours down here. Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
39:02And Mia knew about all this. Mia. Front row seat when Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink.
39:15Too busy admiring her shiny new create and direct title. She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me.
39:24Telling me her job depended on me helping her. What? That bitch!
39:31This ends now.
39:39Damn it!
39:44Miss Michael, he's just arrived from Milan. We need approval by noon for them.
39:49Can't you see I'm working on something important?
40:01What are you all looking at? Get back to work!
40:04Victoria would never treat us like this.
40:08I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect? Then where is she now? Gone.
40:15Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:20Well at least you can actually design it.
40:27What the hell is going on here?
40:30Just a great disagreement. Everything's in control.
40:33The Gosling page, tell me you have something presentable.
40:40Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:42Show me.
40:44It's not quite ready.
40:45Now.
40:51This is garbage.
40:54Absolute garbage!
40:56I just need a little more time.
40:57We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
41:01If Shofen gets this deal instead of us...
41:07What's that?
41:12It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:17I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
41:21Get me when you design me tomorrow morning.
41:24Or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:25I still can't believe they're using this as leverage.
41:40I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:55Right on cue.
42:02Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:04Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:08The absolute nerve of this woman.
42:12She'll get her a sketch.
42:13And that's where we spring the trap.
42:19You're early, Vic.
42:31I really need that sketch.
42:32I said I'd help, not hand over my design.
42:43Polly's all over me about this.
42:45If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:51Still lying, Mia.
42:53You never learn.
42:54Guess it's payback time.
42:56So, do you want my help or not?
42:59I can walk you through it.
43:00Your design could be just as good.
43:02She's such a snake.
43:04Vic, my stomach is killing me.
43:08Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
43:11Fine.
43:12But don't touch anything.
43:41I'm sorry, Vic.
43:43Survival of the fittest.
43:56You just let her take your work?
43:58She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:03You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
44:06Go after the same clients.
44:08Show them what real design looks like.
44:11We're not out yet.
44:13Oh, there's a revolution room.
44:29I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:38You're welcome, Mom.
44:42I want you and your team as your van.
44:48Full creative control.
44:51I'm Miranda.
44:52Your husband's debt.
44:53Handled.
44:54And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:58Mr. Chevalier, I...
45:00I'm Pauline.
45:02Your sister is in good hands.
45:04The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:07She's already prepping for her next surgery.
45:09Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
45:13Don't thank me.
45:15Thank Victoria.
45:16I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:20Vincent, I...
45:22I don't even know what to say.
45:25It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:42To be continued...
46:12and you're still here final tweaks the pitch goes out tomorrow
46:42you've got grace to sleep yeah and Emily's almost finished with her algebra
46:53maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all
46:58we're about to make history
47:08Maison Laveau sets the bar we don't follow trends we create them
47:16satin black lapels nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Met Gala moment
47:26a blend of tradition and boldness
47:29I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top
47:33what is that bitch doing here
47:41thank you Mr. Jenkins for clearing out your best talent
47:49my company is thriving because of your generosity
47:56didn't expect to see you here
47:58I thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes
48:04unlike some I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent
48:10you know Holly your fresh blood strategies work in wonders
48:15the office is so empty it echoes
48:18and the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk
48:22pregnant women talk you know
48:243x and 3s and I'm the CEO
48:27what's next a fake sale?
48:29laugh all you want Holly you're about to see what real teamwork looks like
48:34and what real loyalty looks like
48:51Sean glad you can make it we have something very special to show you
48:57Vic

50:17Maison Laveau
50:20yes
50:23oh my god
50:24of course
50:26this is what you planned all along
50:28wasn't it?
50:39what the hell did you people put me in?
50:42are you trying to kill me?
50:44Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk
50:47who designed this tuxedo?
50:48did you even read the brief?
50:52I mean
50:53did you
50:54you must have read the brief
50:55it's not complicated
50:56it says
50:57no
50:58synthetic
50:59blends
51:00I mean
51:01it must be some kind of mistake
51:02perhaps Mia overlooked something
51:04a mistake?
51:05I could have ended up in the emergency room
51:09Victoria
51:10please
51:11please
51:12tell these amateurs
51:13why you pulled your last design
51:23I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic
51:27I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health for a deadline
51:30and that's why Victoria is the best
51:32she actually pays attention
51:34after reviewing all of the entries
51:36the committee has reached a decision
51:38the commission goes to
51:40Victoria
51:41Miranda
51:42and Pauline
51:43Mr. Gosling
51:45it was just a slip up
51:47Mia's design was the front runner all along
51:50that's why they picked her first
51:52maybe everyone should see this
51:57wait
51:58Mia
52:00did you actually steal Victoria's design?
