00:02:03Hubert?
00:02:04Are you okay?
00:02:07Just brax and hicks.
00:02:08Nothing to do.
00:02:12Oh my god, your water broke.
00:02:20Mom, you were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
00:02:25Multi-tasking is my superpower pumpkin?
00:02:30Dad called.
00:02:31He wanted to know if we should come, but I told him that he lost his visiting privilege
00:02:37since he decided that his assistance man was more comfortable than ours.
00:02:42That's my girl.
00:02:49Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
00:02:55But there's a condition.
00:02:58We need to slash costs.
00:03:00Immediately.
00:03:01Layoffs?
00:03:03Half it without leave.
00:03:08Oh Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
00:03:12Well, just remember, Burra cleaned up that Mulan disaster and get immunity.
00:03:19In fact, um, they deserve a promotion.
00:03:26No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
00:03:34Boss, the Mulan collection crisis? A burden.
00:03:37Pre-orders are pouring in.
00:03:39You saved the entire collection? Impressive.
00:03:43Oh, Ashley.
00:03:45How about I make you the new creative director?
00:03:47Starting today.
00:03:50Oh my god, is this really happening?
00:03:53She's offering Victoria's job?
00:03:55I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
00:04:03But Victoria-
00:04:04Don't worry about her.
00:04:05You're not useless.
00:04:06I'm gonna be so fired.
00:04:09I think of life.
00:04:10You mí me...
00:04:11Keep in mind than ever when I made your career in your career.
00:04:13You know that collection I just rescued Ab.
00:04:17I hid something in the design.
00:04:20Your initials and now little graces.
00:04:21I live in the fabric.
00:04:28Hug eyeing me a long runway?
00:04:30Really?
00:04:32Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
00:04:34Enough 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.
00:05:00Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
00:05:04After all these years in your shadow, Victoria,
00:05:08I'm finally taking what I deserve.
00:05:24Look, I'm gonna fire every single one of them.
00:05:30What the hell?
00:05:36Listen up, everyone.
00:05:38Victoria Wintour is terminated.
00:05:40Effective immediately.
00:05:42You can't just do that.
00:05:44She's in the hospital having her baby.
00:05:46There are laws against this.
00:05:48Vic worked while in labor.
00:05:50She's a creative backbone of Maison Nouveau.
00:05:54Maternity leave, medical insurance,
00:05:56these preggos are bleeding us dry.
00:05:58Everything okay here?
00:06:04Great timing.
00:06:06Victoria Wintour?
00:06:08You're fired.
00:06:10Clear out your desk now.
00:06:12You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
00:06:22I saved this company three times when your father could have been here.
00:06:26Three times.
00:06:28Well, that's ancient history.
00:06:32The world was fresh blood.
00:06:34And I'm eager to save the entire Malone collection.
00:06:38What?
00:06:40I'm the one who...
00:06:42Mia, you...
00:06:44Feel that curve.
00:06:46That's her signature.
00:06:48That's what makes it Maison Nouveau.
00:06:50How could you?
00:06:52I taught you everything you know.
00:06:54I wish things were different, Vic.
00:06:56I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
00:07:00What happens to my team?
00:07:02Miranda pulled all managed for a month straight, working on your father's exclusive collection.
00:07:06What happens to my team?
00:07:08Miranda pulled all managed for a month straight, working on your father's exclusive collections.
00:07:14Things are so bad she had to get hair, implants.
00:07:16Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at The Louvre.
00:07:38meeting at the Louvre. These jobs are their lifelines, health insurers, paid maternity
00:07:43leave, basic human dignity. You can't just throw them away.
00:07:47Actually, legally speaking, we can have no mandated paid maternity leave, no royal protection
00:07:54today. That's corporate America for you.
00:07:57Or we can shift the math. You sign, they stay, the budget works out. Think of it as taking
00:08:07one for the team. Noelle is still drowning in her husband's deaths. Aunt Pauline's sister
00:08:14still needs another surgery. They can't lose their jobs.
00:08:22Come on, babe. You say you care about them. Prove it.
00:08:37Hi, Fred. That's my severest package after 15 years. That's what I'm worth to-
00:08:44Mhh.
00:09:00Five, Fred.
00:09:02That's my severest package after 15 years. That's what I'm worth to-
00:09:06Be careful. I got you.
00:09:28Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
00:09:32Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
00:09:47So, it's true. Great Victoria Winter has been shown the door after single-handedly saving
00:09:55we saw in the Loyal's Mulan Collection. How do you feel about not having to answer
00:10:03to single-minded executives anymore? Some of 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 corner office with you and an attached nursery. Just saying.
00:10:46Vincent Chevalier. Wow. You didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin our corporate nexus thrown into the office.
00:10:52Is that who's by here?
00:10:57Don't mind me. I'm just giving Victoria the area. Soft landing. Triple her salary. Corner office.
00:11:05You know. Before the vultures at Elvie or Chanel swooping.
00:11:10Oh, so you're dumpster diving now. Rescuing a washed up single mom with outdated ideas?
00:11:15It's an interesting take to have considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
00:11:21I mean, the jacket. It's Victoria's spring collection, right? The earrings. It's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
00:11:30If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
00:11:37Shit, shit, shit, shit.
00:11:39What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this?
00:11:48Actually, those were my designs.
00:11:53What did you just say?
00:11:55The spring collection. The Cartier pieces. I designed them. Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
00:12:03Oops. Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
00:12:08I thought you were better than this, Mia.
00:12:12Let explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
00:12:22So what? Skitches get past her and all the time it doesn't freeze squat.
00:12:26Maybe she was in the middle, what did they call it?
00:12:29The permanent dress designer. And the logo?
00:12:35The EW. Woven in. Victoria's signature mark. It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
00:12:42I don't need to explain it. Maybe shut up!
00:12:44Shut up, you know...
00:12:49It's funny, all those pieces with the Milan collection that everyone's losing their heart,
00:12:55they all have EW and GW's so good too.
00:12:59Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter. Her newborn is Grace Winter.
00:13:05It'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.
00:13:20The logo, it's... it's adapted based on traditional motifs.
00:13:27You lying little bitch!
00:13:30Black Remotions are saving the company.
00:13:33Look at the logo again.
00:13:37It's not EW or GW.
00:13:41It's actually two M's.
00:13:44MM for McMichael, my last name.
00:13:50See? One M flipped, one upright.
00:13:54It's not for Grace or Emily.
00:13:57It's mine.
00:13:59That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:14:03Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two M's.
00:14:08You manipulate me.
00:14:10She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
00:14:14You learned well, Mia.
00:14:17Maybe too long.
00:14:18You'll regret this.
00:14:22Come on, let's see.
00:14:23We don't have to see today.
00:14:25Let me drive you over here.
00:14:29I have four hours outside.
00:14:30I got this.
00:14:32You shouldn't be carrying it.
00:14:35Through.
00:14:39Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
00:14:42Just take care of my honor of holding for you.
00:14:48That's right, get the hell out of my company.
00:14:50Go lead your 401k somewhere else.
00:14:56Call, Victoria.
00:14:59VIP and station, pass fashion.
00:15:04Crown rob.
00:15:06I think we'll find it.
00:15:09Enlightening.
00:15:10Every pregnant woman fired. All of us. Just like that. No severance, no warning, nothing but a box of insecurity, Esker.
00:15:34Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
00:15:38The determination here won't practically pay for your sign and bonus when you're wearing a star.
00:15:43Now, I'm not massaging with you. Your designs are eerily lighted.
00:15:51Shut up your eyes closed.
00:16:01Oh my god, Mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
00:16:06Victoria Winter. The nuclear dick. Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
00:16:11Yeah.
00:16:13We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison de Vaux. Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
00:16:22Wait. Maison de Vaux?
00:16:24Well, well. The queen of the outer crown embraces us for her presence. Great with you to show up here.
00:16:31What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
00:16:35Leaving so soon? You haven't introduced me to your princess.
00:16:40Mom, is that true?
00:16:41Mom, is that true?
00:16:43Don't worry. She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
00:16:46Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter. Still pretending she matters.
00:16:50My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:16:55She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
00:16:59Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter.
00:17:02Still pretending she matters.
00:17:07My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
00:17:11If Miss Unable is putting people like you in charge of the business,
00:17:15then maybe she deserves to crash 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.
00:17:25That's gotta sting, huh?
00:17:27Exposes 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 hard-working children.
00:17:38If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
00:17:42That's enough!
00:17:46That's enough!
00:17:48You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
00:17:51You never belonged in this world.
00:17:53Look at her!
00:17:54A jobless, single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
00:17:58That dress...
00:18:00It's a cheap knockoff.
00:18:04Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week 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?
00:18:16Remove that dress!
00:18:18We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
00:18:23Hey, stop it! Let go of my mind!
00:18:26Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
00:18:29Take your hands off her now.
00:18:31Vincent...
00:18:32You're dismissed.
00:18:41You're dismissed.
00:18:50You're alright.
00:18:51I'm fine.
00:18:52Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chamellier.
00:18:53The reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
00:18:54What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
00:18:55That knockoff?
00:18:56That you're so eager to trash her for?
00:18:57It's Chauvenne.
00:18:58But the reclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
00:19:02What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
00:19:07That knockoff?
00:19:08That you're so eager to trash her for?
00:19:12It's Chauvenne.
00:19:14But couture.
00:19:15Winter Collection.
00:19:17Not even released yet.
00:19:19Vice tag?
00:19:21300,000.
00:19:22Wow!
00:19:24You gave her that.
00:19:25That's right.
00:19:26I did.
00:19:29I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
00:19:33Oh my god, everyone missed result.
00:19:35Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
00:19:39Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight.
00:19:41He's from the Hawking Trust Fund.
00:19:45Victoria's leaving her way to the top.
00:19:48It's just so predictably desperate.
00:19:53You really don't understand real talent.
00:19:56Do you?
00:19:58For those of you who don't know me.
00:20:01I'm Vincent Chevalier.
00:20:03CEO of Chauvenne.
00:20:06And yes.
00:20:08I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
00:20:12I 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 going to pursue anything until she's ready.
00:20:32But in the meantime, what I will do is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
00:20:39She won't let you down, boss.
00:20:40You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier. She's nothing but a has-been.
00:20:49The show's about to start. Your seats are waiting.
00:20:53Oh shit.
00:20:54The industry, gold boy, and the creative powerhouse together?
00:21:03Talk about a power couple.
00:21:05Making all the entire industry.
00:21:06This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:07Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:08This isn't over, bitch.
00:21:09Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:10Wait till we see what I've prepared for you.
00:21:21So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
00:21:24Some talents. You recognize me. Some 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.
00:22:09That's just particularly iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
00:22:13Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
00:22:16That's not Holly.
00:22:17That's not Holly.
00:22:20Everyone thinks you're this creative genius, but I know who 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.
00:22:41How dare you!
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 into the lights.
00:23:03The dresses are literally falling apart.
00:23:07We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
00:23:10Is this some kind of sick joke made on the wall?
00:23:12Are you canceling the show because you're incompetent?
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.
00:23:24Paul, you can't seriously be thinking about helping with back-stabbing vultures.
00:23:34Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
00:23:37Masonville 4 appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
00:23:40Sources say the entire collection need to cancel minutes before showtime.
00:23:44The question on everyone's mind?
00:23:46Is this the end for the once prestigious fashion books?
00:23:48What?
00:23:49This show doesn't happen?
00:23:51You're personally liable for the Breach Countess.
00:23:53We're talking buildings, aren't we?
00:23:55No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:29:31Five minutes till showtime. We made it.
00:29:51Well? Do we pull the plug or not?
00:29:54We're good. Everything's back on track.
00:29:56See?
00:29:58I knew firing Victoria was the right call. You've got twice your talent.
00:30:03Yeah, right.
00:30:05This is exactly why I promoted you.
00:30:08Any big size does not make them.
00:30:17To Victoria, the real hero of the night.
00:30:21Mom, you're insane. I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
00:30:37Couldn't have done it without you.
00:30:40You know, if you start dating before you work together, it doesn't count as an office romance.
00:30:46Hi!
00:30:50Well, well, still hanging around.
00:30:53I don't think you're too embarrassed to show your face at the after party. Fraud.
00:30:58Holly, why didn't we ask the models what happened backstage tonight?
00:31:02What are you talking about?
00:31:04Just ask the models.
00:31:06Any of them.
00:31:08Oh, and Mia.
00:31:10Don't forget about our agreement.
00:31:12About Miranda and Pauline.
00:31:14I know.
00:31:15Two new beginnings of the event?
00:31:20Two new beginnings of the event.
00:31:29Speaking of new beginnings...
00:31:31Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
00:31:36I want to help.
00:31:37With their education.
00:31:39What?
00:31:40This and that?
00:31:41That's too much. We barely know each other.
00:31:43Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
00:31:50I remember watching you win that regional competition.
00:31:55In that silver dress.
00:31:57The one you made from scratch.
00:31:59I saw the way your eyes lit up.
00:32:02When you talked about changing the fashion world.
00:32:06Do you remember that?
00:32:08I remember everything.
00:32:10I have followed your career.
00:32:14All these years.
00:32:16Just hoping that our paths would cross again.
00:32:19Why didn't you ever reach out?
00:32:21You were married.
00:32:24And then worse.
00:32:26And then you were building your career.
00:32:28The timing just...
00:32:30Is that right?
00:32:32Until now.
00:32:33I have been away...
00:32:4420 years to do this.
00:32:46I should...
00:33:00Probably 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.
00:33:21And now I have an opportunity that can put you on the map for good.
00:33:24Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
00:33:31Sean Gosling?
00:33:32The Sean Gosling?
00:33:34The very one.
00:33:36Three time Oscar winner.
00:33:37People's Sexies Man Alive.
00:33:39And if you play your cards right.
00:33:41The next face needs only both everywhere.
00:33:44They're taking pitches now.
00:33:46If he picks yours.
00:33:48This changes everything.
00:33:49For you.
00:33:50For the brand.
00:33:51Where it is.
00:33:52She lands in the right too.
00:33:54Land this.
00:33:55Vincent is where Victoria are done.
00:34:01Seal the deal.
00:34:02I'll bump your pay by 20%.
00:34:05I've got this Holly.
00:34:06You won't regret it.
00:34:14God, what am I gonna do?
00:34:16I can't design menswear.
00:34:17I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
00:34:21Lorraine and Felina are gone too.
00:34:23I'm completely on my own.
00:34:26If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria.
00:34:33Maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over.
00:34:36I'll never be your girlfriend.
00:34:58Thanks 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 tucks.
00:35:10Miranda and Pauline are also on the team.
00:35:12Miranda's excellent menswear.
00:35:13She can handle this without me.
00:35:15Please wait, there's no way to it.
00:35:17After Paris, Pauline needs someone to blame for the Faberic 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.
00:35:28Trust 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 Met 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?
00:35:55Well...
00:35:56Perfect. She's handing everything over without even realizing.
00:36:13I'll use her design to save my ass and land this project.
00:36:18Do you still have any of the sketches somewhere?
00:36:20I do.
00:36:22Actually, I...
00:36:24I took them with me when I left me on the ball.
00:36:27Wait.
00:36:29Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
00:36:31How 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.
00:36:40Is the company covering her health insurance?
00:36:42Of course, Vic.
00:36:45Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
00:36:51Who is going to help?
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.
00:37:16Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
00:37:21The Sean Gosselin one with the black hats and lapels?
00:37:24That's the one.
00:37:25Can you check my home office?
00:37:26It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
00:37:31Got it.
00:37:32Grace is napping.
00:37:33It's the perfect timing.
00:37:34Thanks, sweetie.
00:37:35I just need to double check something about that.
00:37:37Shoulder.
00:37:39Mom, are you okay?
00:37:40Mom, are you okay?
00:37:42Miranda?
00:37:56Vic?
00:38:00Mom, mom, what's going on?
00:38:04Am I what?
00:38:05I'll call you right back.
00:38:06Miranda, what happened? Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
00:38:11Bill, don't bring themselves. You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
00:38:19Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the galsing project.
00:38:24What? Isn't that the story she's spinning now?
00:38:29After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
00:38:34No silver, no copper, nothing. Just gone.
00:38:38That's completely illegal.
00:38:41Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some very performance clause.
00:38:46All at once. What are the odds, right?
00:38:49And Polly, parking night shifts at 24 hours down here.
00:38:54Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
00:38:59And Mia knew about all this.
00:39:05Mia, front row seat when Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink.
00:39:12To be admired in her shiny new creative director title.
00:39:16She's been using you and Polly to manipulate me. Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
00:39:23What? That bitch!
00:39:28This ends now.
00:39:30It's just a ride from Milan. We need approval by the name of her.
00:39:47Can't you see I'm working on something important?
00:39:49What are y'all looking at? Get back to work!
00:40:01Victoria never treats us.
00:40:04I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect? Then where is she now? Gone. Now I'm in charge and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
00:40:17What the hell is going on here?
00:40:26Just a great disagreement. Everything is in control.
00:40:30It's the Gosling page. Tell me it was something presentable.
00:40:37Of course, I'm just finalizing the city.
00:40:39Show me.
00:40:41It's not quite ready for-
00:40:43Now.
00:40:47This is garbage.
00:40:51Absolute garbage!
00:40:53I just need a little more time.
00:40:55We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
00:40:58If she then gets this deal instead of us.
00:41:04What's that?
00:41:06It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
00:41:14I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
00:41:18Get me a wedding design with tomorrow morning.
00:41:20Or pack up your desk by lunch!
00:41:23I still can't believe in using this as leverage.
00:41:40I still can't believe in using this as leverage.
00:41:54Right on cue.
00:41:56Meet that sketch ASAP.
00:42:00Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
00:42:04The absolute nerve of this woman.
00:42:06She'll get her sketch.
00:42:10And that's when we spin the trap.
00:42:12You're early.
00:42:24Vic, I really need that sketch.
00:42:28I said I'd help. Not hand over my design.
00:42:40Polly's all over me about this.
00:42:42If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
00:42:46Still lying, Mia.
00:42:48You'll 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.
00:42:58She's such a snake.
00:43:02Vic, my stomach is killing me.
00:43:04Can you run to the pharmacy and get something, please?
00:43:08Fine.
00:43:09Don't touch anything.
00:43:16I'm sorry, man.
00:43:38Survival of this.
00:43:46You just let her take your work?
00:43:52She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
00:43:59You know, boss.
00:44:00We could pitch ourselves.
00:44:02Go after the same clients.
00:44:04Show them what real design looks like.
00:44:07We're not out yet.
00:44:16I heard there's a revolution room.
00:44:27Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
00:44:33You're welcome, mom.
00:44:37I want you and your team as your men.
00:44:42Full creative control.
00:44:44Oh, Miranda.
00:44:46Your husband's dead.
00:44:47Handled.
00:44:48And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
00:44:53Mr. Chevalier, I...
00:44:56I'm Pauline.
00:44:57Your sister is in good hands.
00:45:00The best heart surgeon in the country.
00:45:02It's already prepping for her neck surgery.
00:45:05Mr. Chevalier.
00:45:09Don't thank me.
00:45:10Thank Victoria.
00:45:11I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
00:45:15Vincent, I...
00:45:17I don't even know what to say.
00:45:20It's about time you all get what you deserve.
00:45:22You all get what you deserve.
00:46:22And you're still here.
00:46:31Final tweaks.
00:46:32The pitch goes out tomorrow.
00:46:37You've got Grace to sleep.
00:46:42Yeah.
00:46:44And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
00:46:47Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
00:46:57Remember, smile, cry back with history.
00:47:03Maison Laveau sets the bar.
00:47:06We don't follow trends, we create them.
00:47:09Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gossling's Metcalfe moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
00:47:23I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
00:47:26What is that bitch doing here?
00:47:38Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
00:47:42My company's 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.
00:47:56I multitask.
00:47:58Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
00:48:03You know, Holly, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
00:48:07The office is so empty, it echoes.
00:48:09And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
00:48:15Pregnant woman in Tokyo, three excellent reasons why I'm the CEO.
00:48:20But, like, the big sale?
00:48:23Laugh 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.
00:48:56You never know.
00:48:57Congratulations.
00:48:58Thank you, Sean.
00:49:00It's good to see you.
00:49:02Let's begin the pitches.
00:49:05You ready to lose?
00:49:06You're out of your league.
00:49:08You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
00:49:18First up, me and McMichael.
00:49:19Maison Laveau.
00:49:30Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:49:41Beautiful work.
00:49:51Both things.
00:49:53We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
00:49:59After careful consideration, we're rewarding project two.
00:50:10Maison Laveau.
00:50:11Yes!
00:50:12Oh my God!
00:50:12Of course.
00:50:13This is all you planned all along.
00:50:18Wasn't it?
00:50:19What the hell did you people put me in?
00:50:31I mean, are you trying to kill me?
00:50:32Mr. Galsing has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
00:50:36Who designed this tuxedo?
00:50:37Did you even read the brief?
00:50:42I mean, you must have read the brief.
00:50:44It's not complicated.
00:50:45It says, no synthetic blends.
00:50:49I mean, there must be some endless tape.
00:50:52Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
00:50:54A mistake?
00:50:55I could have ended up in the emergency room.
00:50:57Victoria, please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your glasses off.
00:51:11I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
00:51:15I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's health for a deadline.
00:51:18And that's why Victoria is the best.
00:51:20She actually pays attention.
00:51:22After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
00:51:25The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
00:51:32Mr. Galsing was just a slip-up.
00:51:35Mia's design was the front runner all along.
00:51:38That's why they picked her first.
00:51:43Maybe everyone should see this.
00:51:50Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
00:51:55Not so new low, even for you.
00:52:04Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my liars.
00:52:08And so you know,
00:52:11I will be supporting Victoria's case for this like that.
00:52:16Nathan Laveau's reputation is toast.
00:52:18We're suspending all collaborations.
00:52:21Don't even think about trying to land anywhere else.
00:52:34You're blacklisted.
00:52:40Victoria, please.
00:52:41Victoria, please.
00:52:52I'll do anything, please.
00:52:53Just help me save the company,
00:52:55the brand you built for 50 years.
00:52:58You made your choices, Holly.
00:53:00Now you live with them.
00:53:04Why don't you go too far?
00:53:05John Galsing's look tonight is a game-changer crafted by the trailblazing team of Joe Menn.
00:53:17Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
00:53:20To the best comeback in fashion history,
00:53:31and 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.
00:53:57Happy birthday to you!
00:54:03Nice.
00:54:04Look!
00:54:06Maison Laveau on the brink?
00:54:08The scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:54:11Ouch!
00:54:13I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
00:54:16It's strange, isn't it?
00:54:21I gave them everything.
00:54:24Late nights, weekends, all the best years,
00:54:27and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
00:54:31Now it's all crashing down.
00:54:32I thought I'd feel vindicated.
00:54:35Honestly, it's a weird mix.
00:54:37Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
00:54:41Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
00:54:45Look at this!
00:54:48Joe Menn pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
00:54:53Victoria, this is you.
00:54:56You did this!
00:54:58Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
00:55:04Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
00:55:09Careful, Vincent.
00:55:10You must run the best part.
00:55:18Bye.
00:55:18Victoria Winter, will you marry me?
00:55:33Yes!
00:55:34A thousand times yes!
00:55:36Woo!
00:55:36Woo!
00:55:37Woo!
00:55:37Woo!
00:55:37Woo!
00:55:38Woo!
00:55:38Woo!
00:55:39Woo!
00:55:39Woo!
00:55:40Woo!
00:55:41Woo!
00:55:41Woo!
00:55:42Woo!
00:55:42Woo!
00:55:43Woo!
00:55:43Woo!
00:55:44Woo!
00:55:45Woo!
00:55:46Woo!
00:55:47Woo!
00:55:48Woo!
00:55:48Woo!
00:55:48Woo!
00:55:49Woo!
00:55:56Woo!
00:55:57Whatever!
00:56:14Okay, I thought you'd want to see me leave this.
00:56:18I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
00:56:21When word got out you left, clients bailed.
00:56:25The board freed, numbers named.
00:56:28I couldn't stop it.
00:56:31You stood Mace on the boat into this storm, Holly.
00:56:38I know. I know.
00:56:41My father, the stress gave him a heart attack.
00:56:46He won't even speak to me anymore.
00:56:49I destroyed everything.
00:56:52My thoughts slashed in costs and saved us, but instead I gutted the company.
00:56:58Made me pretend like this.
00:57:01Mace on Lavao isn't dead.
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 Javan now.
00:57:13Why would you do that?
00:57:16To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
00:57:23You and Victoria.
00:57:26They helped me do better than I did.
00:57:29I'll do it differently.
00:57:32Goodbye, Holly.
00:57:34Miss Winter.
00:57:35I just...
00:57:36I want to thank you.
00:57:37Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
00:57:41I can keep working and have my baby.
00:57:48You changed everything.
00:57:50Congratulations.
00:57:51Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
00:57:52Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
00:57:56honey.
00:57:57I'm so sorry, I just...
00:57:58I wanted to thank you.
00:57:59I just...
00:58:00I want to thank you.
00:58:01I just....
00:58:02I want to thank you.
00:58:03Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
00:58:04I can keep working and have my baby.
00:58:07You changed everything.
00:58:09Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
00:58:21Ready?
00:58:25Always.
00:58:26And now, Joran's new collection, designed by Victoria Ventura.
00:58:56Sean Gosling's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing teenage young men.
00:59:04Social media is already calling it, The Winter Revolution.
00:59:15To the best comeback in fashion history, and to the women who made it happen.
00:59:21And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
00:59:27Mom, you might want to see this.
00:59:39Happy birthday, Victoria.
00:59:44Happy birthday to you!
00:59:50Guys, look!
00:59:51Maison Niveau on the brink, the scandal pushes fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
00:59:59Ouch!
01:00:01I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
01:00:03It's strange, isn't it?
01:00:04It's strange, isn't it?
01:00:08I gave them everything. Late 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. Honestly, it's a weird mix.
01:00:24Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
01:00:29Look, 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.
01:00:41Victoria, this is you! You did this!
01:00:45Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
01:00:51Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
01:00:54Careful, Vincent. What's about the best part?
01:01:05I...
01:01:10Victoria Winter...
01:01:15Will you marry me?
01:01:20Yes!
01:01:21A thousand times yes!
01:01:24Woo!
01:01:28Woo!
01:01:32Woo!
01:01:33Woo!
01:01:35Woo!
01:01:41Give me love and listen all the time!
01:01:44Ever!
01:01:45Yeah, yes!
01:01:47Woo!
01:01:51Woo!
01:01:52You 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. Clients bailed.
01:02:13The board freed. Numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
01:02:18You, Stuart Mace on the boat, into this storm, Holly.
01:02:22I know. I know.
01:02:29My father, the 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 gutted the company.
01:02:45I didn't mean to pretend like this.
01:02:48I mean, I don't know if I wasn't dead. I bought it. Last week.
01:02:54The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of your van now.
01:02:59And why would you do that?
01:03:03To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
01:03:10You and Victoria.
01:03:13To help you do better than I did.
01:03:16I'll do it differently.
01:03:17Goodbye, Holly.
01:03:19Goodbye, Holly.
01:03:20Miss Winter.

01:03:22Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
01:03:23I can keep working and...
01:03:24Have my baby.
01:03:25You changed everything.
01:03:27You changed everything.
01:03:28I can keep working and...
01:03:29I can't keep working and...
01:03:30have my baby.
01:03:32You changed everything.
01:03:33I can't keep working and...
01:03:34Have my baby.
01:03:35Miss Wintour, I just... I want to thank you. Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave. I can keep working and have my baby. You changed everything.
