00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, the system crashed mid-upload, half the collection is the wrong season, we're on everything, no.
00:21Runway is in 48 hours, production starts with these botched designs, we're all dead, not just fire, we're dead, company collapses, our careers are over, come out here and talk to us, we have 8 million tied up in this collection, I have a passion that you promote, right now, one word for me, you're injured, poison.
00:51Enough.
00:59Vic!
01:01Mia, Japanese Indigo. Miranda, call production, emergency protocol 7. Pauline, handle those vultures.
01:12Tell the boss to hold all calls, I need 28 minutes.
01:2028 minutes? The whole system takes 15 to reboot.
01:2427 now. Tick tock.
01:42I'm done. Crisis averted.
01:49I swear to god, you're not human.
01:5227 minutes!
01:54Holy shit! Pre-orders are flooding in. This will shatter every record.
02:05Vic! Are you okay?
02:07Just...frax and hicks, nothing to...
02:14Oh my god, your water broke.
02:23Mom, you were seriously in active labor, while saving the entire company?
02:28Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:30Dad called. He wanted to know if he should come, but...
02:37I told him that he lost his visiting privileges since he decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
02:45That's my girl.
02:47Well, the company's yours now, Holly. But there's...a condition.
03:01We need to slash costs.
03:03Immediately.
03:05Layoffs.
03:09Absent without leave.
03:10Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:15Well, just remember, whoever cleaned up that Milan disaster...
03:20They get immunity.
03:22In fact, um...
03:24They deserve a promotion.
03:28No way this Victoria Wintour saved the company since she's not even there.
03:32Boss, the Milan collection crisis? Averted. Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:41Ew, you saved the entire collection? Impressive.
03:45Oh, actually...
03:47How about I make you the new creative director? Starting today.
03:51Oh my god, is this really happening?
03:55She's offering me Victoria's job?
03:57I can finally get rid of that bitch hanging over my head?
04:06But, Victoria...
04:07Don't worry about her.
04:08I'm not useless.
04:09I'm going to sell fire.
04:15You know that collection I just rescued, Em?
04:18I hid something in the design.
04:21Your initials and now little graces.
04:24Hold them right into the fabric.
04:31And that's going to give him a long runway?
04:34Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:37Enough for your full tuition at private school.
04:40Mom, you ain't have to.
04:42You're going to that private school.
04:44No discussion.
04:46Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:49This job will keep us afloat.
04:51I love you, Mom.
04:52Mom.
05:03Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
05:08After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:12Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
05:29What the hell?
05:30Listen up, everyone.
05:31Victoria Wintour is terminated.
05:32Effective immediately.
05:34You can't just do that.
05:35She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:37They're a loss against this.
05:38Vic worked while in labor.
05:40She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
05:41She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
05:43Maternity leave, medical insurance, these preggles are bleeding us dry.
05:45Everything okay here?
05:46Great timing.
05:47Victoria Wintour?
05:48You're fired.
05:49Clear out your desk now.
05:50I'm sorry.
05:51I'm sorry.
05:52You can't just do that.
05:53You can't just do that.
05:54She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:55They're a loss against this.
05:56Vic worked while in labor.
05:57She's the creative backbone of Maison Laveau.
05:58Then I've allowed Barbot to no doubt.
06:00directing them to do all your genes, what's chick is doing?
06:05Doing good work.
06:06extremporary.
06:07working up when you're married, you're very rich.
06:08rustic.
06:09I'm just let your talk stoic.
06:10It's worth while I'm keeping this quietal droit.
06:11Mediative Al Bomber.
06:13Clear out your desk now.
06:23You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:26I saved this company three times when your father could have made payroll.
06:30Three times.
06:33Well, that's ancient history.
06:37The board wants fresh blood.
06:38And Mia here just saved the entire Milan collection.
06:46What?
06:47I'm the one who...
06:50Mia, you...
06:53Feel that curve?
06:55That's your signature.
06:56That's what makes it Maison Laveau.
07:03How could you?
07:04I taught you everything you know.
07:09I wish things were different, Vic.
07:17I should have thought about your career before getting pregnant.
07:26What happens to my team?
07:27Miranda pulled all-nighters for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:33Things got so bad she had to get hair implants.
07:37Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:41These jobs are their lifelines.
07:44Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:48You can't just throw them away.
07:50Well, actually, legally speaking, we can.
07:53No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection, but hey, that's corporate America for you.
07:58Or we can shift the math.
08:02You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
08:07Think of it as taking one for the team.
08:11Miranda's still drowning in her husband's debts.
08:16And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:19They can't lose their jobs.
08:25Come on, Vic. You say you care about them.
08:28Prove it.
08:29You say?
08:31You say you two保'ers.
08:32You say a child.
08:34Bye.
08:35I'm sorry.
08:37You say to your mother.
08:39I'm sorry.
08:41You say you.
08:42How's your father?
08:44I mean, you say you were your father.
08:46I don't see you.
08:48I think I've made none of the time.
08:50You say you are a scientist.
08:52Not your father.
08:53You say you are a scientist.
08:55You say yes, you are a scientist.
08:56$5,000, that's my severance package after 15 years, that's what I'm worth to them?
09:22Careful, I got you.
09:26Vincent?
09:31Vincent Chevalier?
09:34Hi.
09:36High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:50So, it's true.
09:54Great Victoria Winter is being shown the door after single-handedly saving Misan Laveau's Milan collection.
09:59How would you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives anymore?
10:09Someone with your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:13What are you getting at exactly?
10:16I'm talking about you and me.
10:19Partners.
10:20Your genius, my money.
10:25No corporate BS.
10:26No one holding you back.
10:27I've got a baby to think about now.
10:28And I have an empty corner office with a view and an attached nursery.
10:29Just saying.
10:30Vincent Chevalier.
10:31Vincent Chevalier.
10:32Wow.
10:33You didn't expect to see the head of Joven, our corporate nemesis strolling into the office.
10:37Got your spine here?
10:38Don't mind me.
10:39I'm just giving Victoria here a soft landing.
10:40Triple her salary.
10:41Corner office.
10:42You know, I'm just giving Victoria a soft landing.
10:43Triple her salary.
10:44Corner office.
10:45You know, before the vultures at LB or Chanel swoop in.
10:46You're dumpster diving now.
10:47Well, though, I'm just giving Victoria her not out of trouble.
10:49But you'll have to do that to me.
10:50Well, I'm just giving a small biz of what you see here.
10:51And I'm going to have to move.
10:52I'm going to have to love it.
10:53How am I going to do this?
10:54Yeah!
10:55It's working in the tracks.
10:56And what I'm going to do about that?
10:57Oh, you're going to have to join me?
10:58Oh my gosh.
10:59Can you do the best?
11:00Yes.
11:01Four stars.
11:02Can you do it?
11:03Woo?
11:04I'm going to do it.
11:05But I'm gonna get to go.
11:06Tell me who you are.
11:07Oh my gosh.
11:08You know, before the vultures at Elvie or Chanel swoop in.
11:13Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:15Rescuing a washed-up single mom with outdated ideas?
11:19Wow, that's an interesting take to have, considering you wearing Victoria's designs head to toe.
11:25I mean, the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:30The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:32Hey, if her work is so far beneath you, then maybe you should just strip.
11:40Shit, shit, shit.
11:41What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:51Actually, those were my designs.
11:56What did you just say?
11:57The spring collection. The Cartier pieces.
12:00I designed them.
12:03Under your supervision, of course, but they came from me.
12:07Oops.
12:07Looks like you've been backing the wrong horse, Vincent.
12:11I thought you were better than this, Mia.
12:15Then explain my signature on the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:24So what? Sketches get passed around all the time. It doesn't prove squat.
12:28Maybe she was your little, what do they call it, dress designer?
12:34And the logo?
12:37The EW woven in Victoria's signature mark.
12:42It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:45Well, Mia, explain it. Make her shut up.
12:47It's funny.
12:48It's funny. All those pieces from the Milan collection that everyone's losing in their work.
12:57They all have EW and GW so many, too.
13:01Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
13:04Her newborn is Grace Winter.
13:06It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
13:12Is there a special EW and GW in your life, too?
13:16Well, Mia, tell them.
13:18Tell them you designed this.
13:20Tell them you saved Milan.
13:22The logo, it's...
13:24It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:29What? You lying little bitch!
13:32That promotion was for saving the company!
13:38Look at the logo again.
13:40It's not EW or GW.
13:44It's actually two M's.
13:47M-M for McMichael, my last name.
13:53See?
13:54One M flipped, one upright.
13:56It's not for Grace or Emily.
14:00It's mine.
14:02That is absolutely ridiculous.
14:05Oh my god, she's right. It does look more like two M's.
14:11You manipulative bitch.
14:12You really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:17You learned wild, Mia.
14:20Maybe too long.
14:21You'll regret this.
14:24I'm not going to sleep.
14:26We don't have to sink to their level.
14:29Okay.
14:30Then let me drive you home, okay?
14:32My Ferrari's outside.
14:34I got this.
14:35You shouldn't be carrying anyone.
14:41Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:45Just take care of your honor and poly, will you?
14:50That's right!
14:51Get the hell out of my company!
14:52Go leech your 401k somewhere else.
15:01Oh, I'm Victoria.
15:05VIP invitation.
15:07Paris Fashion Week.
15:08Front row.
15:09I think you'll find it.
15:11Enlightening.
15:12Every pregnant woman fired.
15:23All of us.
15:24Just like that.
15:26No severance.
15:28No warning.
15:28Nothing.
15:29But a box and a security S group.
15:37Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities.
15:41Their termination paperwork practically paid for your sign and bonus my writing star.
15:46Now, about Paris Fashion Week.
15:48Your designs are eagerly awaited.
15:50You should have kept your legs closed.
16:02Oh my god, mom.
16:06This is insane.
16:07I can't believe we're actually here.
16:09Victoria Wintour.
16:11The Nuclear Vic.
16:12Your mom's basically a legend.
16:14You know that, right?
16:14Yeah.
16:15We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison Léveau.
16:20Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:25Wait.
16:26Maison Léveau?
16:28Well, well.
16:29The Queen without her crown graces us with her presence.
16:33Brave of you to show up here.
16:34What's next?
16:35Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:39Leaving so soon?
16:41You haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:42Has mommy dearest filled you in on her little career update about getting canned for not
16:49cutting it anymore?
16:52Mom, is that true?
16:57Don't worry.
16:58She'll explain once she figures out how to keep paying your tuition bills.
17:02Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Wintour.
17:05Still pretending she matters.
17:06My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:14If Maison Léveau was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe she
17:19deserves to crash and burn.
17:21Well, look at that.
17:22It seems entitlement runs in the family.
17:24Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:28That's got to sting, huh?
17:30Exposed as unemployed in front of your kid who worships you like some kind of hero.
17:34But hey, good news.
17:37There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
17:41If paying the bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:45That's enough.
17:49That's enough.
17:51You've always been a fraud, Victoria.
17:53You never belonged in this world.
17:55Look at her.
17:57A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
18:01That dress.
18:03It's a cheap knockoff.
18:07Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week, it's not just pathetic.
18:10It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:14What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:20Remove that dress.
18:22We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:26Hey, stop it.
18:27Let go of my mom.
18:29And let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:33Take your hands off her now.
18:38Vincent.
18:38You're dismissed.
18:53You all right?
18:57You all right?
18:58I'm fine.
18:59Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chevalier.
19:02The reclusive billionaire who never shows up anywhere?
19:05What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
19:07That knockoff that you're so eager to trash her for?
19:14It's Chauvin.
19:16Couture.
19:18Winter collection.
19:19Not even released yet.
19:22Price tag?
19:24$300,000.
19:25Wow!
19:26You gave her that.
19:28That's right.
19:29You did.
19:32I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:35Oh my god, everyone, mystery solved.
19:38Victoria's bagged herself a sugar daddy.
19:42Mr. Billionaire is not a white knight.
19:44He's her walking trust fund.
19:48Victoria's sleeping her weight at the top.
19:51It's just so predictably desperate.
19:53You really don't understand real talent, do you?
20:01For those of you who don't know me, I'm Vincent Chevalier, CEO of Jovaine.
20:08And yes, I have been in love with Victoria Winter since high school.
20:16I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:19Your brilliance.
20:21Your principles.
20:23Your passion.
20:25Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:28Mom, did you know about this?
20:30Now, I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:35But in the meantime, what I will do
20:37is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:42She won't let you down, boss.
20:47You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier.
20:50She's nothing but a has-been.
20:53The show is about to start.
20:55Your seats are waiting.
20:56Holy shit.
21:03The industry Golden Boy and the Creative Powerhouse together?
21:06Talk about a power couple.
21:08They can run the entire industry.
21:11This isn't over, bitch.
21:13Wait till you see what I've prepared for you.
21:15So you seriously been in love with my mom since high school?
21:32Some talents you recognize immediately.
21:36Some people, too.
21:37Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
21:45I have an important announcement.
21:47This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:50She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:56It's true.
21:57She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:59I've slaved away on those designs, day and night.
22:06And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
22:13That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
22:16Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
22:20That's enough, Holly.
22:21Everyone thinks you're this creative genius,
22:25but I know what you really are.
22:26Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:31Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:35That's her real design strategy.
22:38Stop it, Holly.
22:39You're embarrassing yourself.
22:40And those kids she's so proud of?
22:42Who knows who their real fathers are?
22:46How dare you!
22:47It's a disaster in there.
22:54There's something wrong with the collection.
22:56It's the fabric.
22:57Not now.
23:03The primary fabrics are disintegrating under the lights.
23:07The dresses are literally falling apart.
23:10We've only got 50 minutes left until showtime.
23:13Is this some kind of sick joke, Maison-Mavale?
23:14Are you canceling the show because of your incompetence?
23:17This is completely unprofessional.
23:20I have 10 million invested in this collection.
23:23This is breach of contract.
23:27It's actually fixable.
23:30Bob, you can't seriously be thinking about helping you backstabbing vultures.
23:37Breaking news from Paris Fashion Week.
23:40Maison-Mavale appears to be imploding underneath new leadership.
23:42Sources say the entire collection may be canceled minutes before showtime.
23:47The question on everyone's mind,
23:49is this the end for the once prestigious fashion house?
23:55This show doesn't happen.
23:58You're personally liable for the breach penalties.
24:00We're talking billions, Holly.
24:03Billions.
24:03Billions.
24:03Billions.
24:04Billions.
24:23Billions.

31:32emily's private school application is due next month right
31:36i want to help with her education
31:40With her education.
31:42What? Vincent, that's too much. We barely know each other.
31:47Victoria, I've known you since we were 17.
31:53I remember watching you win that regional competition in that silver dress, the one you made from scratch.
32:02I saw the way your eyes lit up when you talked about changing the fashion world.
32:09How do you remember that?
32:11I remember everything.
32:14I have followed your career all these years, just hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:22Why didn't you ever reach out?
32:24You were married.
32:27And then you were building your career.
32:31The timing was never right.
32:35Until now.
32:39I've been waiting 20 years to do this.
32:49I should probably get this.
33:04Mia?
33:16God, I was so right about firing Victoria.
33:20That Milan disaster you turned around? Absolute magic.
33:23And now I have an opportunity that could put you on the map for good.
33:27Sean Gosling needs a tuxedo for the Oscars red carpet.
33:33Sean Gosling?
33:35The Sean Gosling?
33:36The very one.
33:37Three-time Oscar winner.
33:39People's Sexiest Man Alive.
33:41And if we play our cards right, the next face of Maison Lebeau's Lensware.
33:46They're taking pitches now.
33:48If he picks yours, this changes everything.
33:51For you.
33:52For the brand.
33:53Word is, Joven's in the running too.
33:56Land this.
33:57Vincent and his poor Victoria are done.
34:04Seal the deal?
34:05I'll bump your pay by 20%.
34:07I've got this, Holly.
34:09You won't regret it.
34:10God, what am I gonna do?
34:19I can't design menswear.
34:21I barely pulled off the woman's with Victoria's help.
34:24Miranda and Felina are gone too.
34:26I'm completely on my own.
34:29If Holly bought that I saved Milan and fixed Paris when it was all Victoria,
34:36maybe I can squeeze one more miracle over her.
35:01Thanks for meeting me.
35:02I know things are complicated between us.
35:04You mentioned Miranda and Pauline.
35:06Cut to the chase.
35:11We're pitching for Sean's Oscar tucks.
35:13Miranda and Pauline are also on the team.
35:15Miranda's excellent with menswear.
35:16She can handle this without me.
35:17Please, wait.
35:18There's more to it.
35:19After Paris, Holly needed someone to blame for the fabric disaster.
35:23Miranda and Pauline are on the chopping block.
35:26I've been fighting for them.
35:28Are you serious?
35:29Pauline's due any day now.
35:31Trust me, I know.
35:33This project is our only shot.
35:35If we land it, I can convince Holly to keep them both.
35:38Have you worked with Sean before?
35:40No, but I've heard you have.
35:42Ages ago.
35:44I did a jacket frame for the Met Gala.
35:47Actually, I was sketching a new tuxedo concept for him right before I left Maison alone.
35:52Really? 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?
36:22I do.
36:23Actually, I took them with me when I left Maison Laveau.
36:26Wait.
36:27Miranda went on maternity leave last week.
36:28How exactly is she part of this project?
36:29Well, since she's the best menswear designer we have, Holly's letting her work from home.
36:42Is the company covering her health insurance?
36:45Of course, Vic.
36:48Pauline and Miranda's jobs are on the line here.
36:54You need something to play.
36:56Take all the time you need.
36:58Mia.
37:00Don't make me regret trusting you.
37:02Again.
37:15Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:22Remember that tuxedo sketch I was working on before everything went sideways?
37:27The Sean Gosselin one with the black satin lapels?
37:30That's the one.
37:31Can you check my home office?
37:32It should be in the portfolio marked Men's Formal 2025.
37:37Got it.
37:38Grace is napping.
37:39The perfect timing.
37:40Thanks, sweetie.
37:41I just need to double check something about the...
37:45Shoulder.
37:48Instruction.
37:51Mom, are you okay?
37:56Miranda?
37:58Vic?
38:03Mom, Mom, what's going on?
38:06Emily, I'll call you right back.
38:10Miranda, what happened?
38:11Why the hell are you scrubbing toilets?
38:13Bills don't pay themselves.
38:16You met my husband, old child with no paycheck, and now there's a newborn at home.
38:22Mia said you were on maternity leave working remotely on the Gosselin project.
38:27What?
38:28Is that the story she's spinning now?
38:32After you left, she fired every pregnant woman in the company.
38:36No severance, no copper and nothing.
38:39Just gone.
38:41That's completely illegal.
38:43Company lawyers said that we all suddenly violated some buried performance clause.
38:49All at once.
38:50What are the odds, right?
38:51And Polly, working night shifts at 24 hours down here.
38:57Her sister medical bills keep piling up.
38:59And Mia knew about all this.
39:00Mia.
39:01Front row seat when Holly made an announcement.
39:02Didn't even blink.
39:03Too busy admiring her shiny new creative director title.
39:05She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me.
39:06Telling me her job depended on me helping her.
39:07What?
39:08That bitch.
39:09This ends now.
39:10Damn it.
39:11Holly made an announcement. Didn't even blink. Too busy admiring her shiny new
39:17creative director title. She's been using you and Pauline to manipulate me, telling
39:23me her job depended on me helping her. What? That bitch! This ends now.
39:34Damn it! Miss 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?
39:52What are y'all looking at? Get back to work! Victoria would never treat us like this.
40:07I heard that. You think Victoria is so perfect? Then where is she now? Gone. Now I'm in charge
40:15and if anyone has a problem with that, there's the door.
40:19Well at least you can actually design it.
40:26What the hell is going on here?
40:28Just a great disagreement. Everything's under control.
40:32The Gosling page. Tell me you have something presentable.
40:39Of course, I'm just finalizing some details.
40:41Show me.
40:43It's not quite ready.
40:44Now.
40:50This is garbage.
40:53Absolute garbage!
40:54I just need a little more time.
40:56We don't have more time. This is Sean Gosling we're talking about.
40:59If Chou Fenn gets this deal instead of us...
41:05What's that?
41:06It's just some inspiration I recorded for the design.
41:16I don't care if you have to sell your soul to the devil.
41:19Get me when you design me tomorrow morning.
41:22Or pack up your desk by lunch!
41:24I still can't believe I'm using this as leverage.
41:49Right on cue.
42:00Meet that sketch ASAP.
42:02Miranda and Pauline's futures depend on it.
42:06The absolute nerve of this woman!
42:11She'll get her a sketch.
42:12And that's when we spring the trap.
42:27You're early.
42:28Vic.
42:29I really need that sketch.
42:31I said I'd help. Not hand over my design.
42:42Holly's all over me about this.
42:44If I don't have something tonight, Miranda and Pauline are toast.
42:50Still lying Mia. You never learn.
42:53Guess it's payback time.
42:54So.
42:56Do you want my help or not?
42:57I can walk you through it.
42:58Your design could be just as good.
43:01She's such a snake!
43:04Vic, my stomach is killing me!
43:07Can you run to the pharmacy and get something please?
43:10Fine.
43:12Don't touch anything.
43:24I'm running.
43:25There's ananda.
43:27I don't have to.
43:28I'm running.
43:29I'm running.
43:30Fine.
43:32Time.
43:33Time.
43:35I'm running.
43:36I'm running.
43:37I'm running.
43:39Sorry, Vic.
43:40Survival of the fiddlest.
43:41I'm running.
43:42I'm running.
43:47I'm running.
43:48I'm running.
43:49I'm running.
43:50I'm running.
43:51You just let her take your work?
43:56She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
44:02You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves, go after the same clients, show them what
44:08real design looks like.
44:11We're not out yet.
44:21I heard there's a revolution, bro.
44:30Figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:36You're welcome, mom.
44:41I want you and your team as your van.
44:46Full creative control.
44:48Well, Miranda, your husband's dead, handled.
44:53And every casino in the country has been told he's not welcome.
44:56Mr. Chevalier, I...
44:59I'm Pauline.
45:01Your sister is in good hands.
45:03The best heart surgeon in the country.
45:06It's already prepping for her next surgery.
45:08Mr. Chevalier, thank you.
45:12Don't thank me.
45:13Thank Victoria.
45:15I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:19Vincent, I...
45:21I don't even know what to say.
45:24It's about time you all get what you deserve.
45:27Well, Leo.
45:36I thought I was good.
45:37I love you.
45:39Bye.
45:40If you are your host, report tomorrow morning, let me ask you what to say.
46:21And you're still here?
46:35Final tweaks.
46:36The pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:42You've got Grace to sleep.
46:46Yeah.
46:48And Emily's
46:50almost finished with her algebra.
46:53Maybe new beginnings
46:55aren't so scary after all.
47:02Remember, smile.
47:04We're about to make history.
47:08Maison Laveau
47:09sets the bar.
47:11We don't follow trends.
47:12We create them.
47:13Satin black lapels.
47:21Nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Met Gala moment.
47:24A blend of tradition and boldness.
47:27I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:31What is that bitch doing here?
47:43Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:48My company's thriving because of your generosity.
47:53I didn't expect to see you here.
47:55We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
48:01I multitask.
48:03Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
48:08You know, Holly,
48:09your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
48:12The office is so empty,
48:14it echoes.
48:16And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau
48:18is the legal risk.
48:20Pregnant women talk, you know.
48:22Three X and threes and a rival CEO.
48:25What's next?
48:26The fake sale?
48:28Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:30You're about to see what real teamwork looks like.
48:33And what real loyalty looks like.
48:42Sean, glad you could make it.
48:51We have something very special to show you.
48:56Vic.
49:00I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
49:02You'd never know.
49:04Congratulations.
49:05Thank you, Sean.
49:06It's good to see you.
49:08Let's begin the pitches.
49:09You ready to lose?
49:13You're out of your league.
49:14You should know by now,
49:16I don't play by your rules.
49:25First up, Mia McMichael, Maison Laveau.
49:39Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:57Beautiful work.
49:59Both teams.
50:04We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
50:06After careful consideration,
50:13we're awarding Project 2
50:15Maison Laveau.
50:19Oh, yeah!
50:20Oh, my God.
50:22Of course.
50:23This is what you planned all along,
50:26wasn't it?
50:26Yeah.
50:26Yeah.
50:28What the hell did you people put me in?
50:39Are you trying to kill me?
50:41Mr. Gosling has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:44Who designed this Tuxedo?
50:46Did you even read the brief?
50:47I mean,
50:51you must have read the brief.
50:53It's not complicated.
50:54It says,
50:55no synthetic blend.
50:57I mean...
50:58It must be some kind of mistake.
51:00Perhaps Mia overlooked something.
51:02A mistake?
51:03I could have ended up in the emergency room.
51:07Victoria,
51:08please,
51:09tell these amateurs
51:10why you pulled your last design.
51:20I pulled my design
51:21because the only fabric left
51:23was synthetic.
51:24I'd never risk Mr. Gosling's health
51:26for a deadline.
51:27And that's why Victoria is the best.
51:30She actually pays attention.
51:31After reviewing all the entries,
51:33the committee has reached a decision.
51:36The commission goes to
51:37Victoria, Miranda,
51:38and Paul Mien.
51:39It's okay.
51:42Mr. Gosling,
51:43it was just a slip-up.
51:45Mia's design was the front runner all along.
51:47That's why they picked her first.
51:52Maybe everyone should see this.
52:00Wait, Mia,
52:01did you actually steal Victoria's design?
52:03That's a new low.
52:09Even for you.
52:14Maison Laveau
52:15will be hearing
52:16from my liars.
52:18And so you know,
52:20I will be supporting
52:21Victoria's case
52:22for design theft.
52:25Maison Laveau's reputation
52:27is toast.
52:28We're suspending
52:29all collaborations.
52:30Don't even think
52:41about trying to land
52:42anywhere else.
52:44You're blacklisted.
52:50Victoria, please.
52:51Victoria, please.
52:51I'll do anything.
53:07Please just help me
53:08save the company,
53:09the brand that you built
53:10for 15 years.
53:12You made your choices,
53:14Holly.
53:14Now you live with them.
53:16You finally went too far.
53:25Sean Gosling's look tonight
53:27is a game changer
53:28crafted by the trailblazing team
53:29at Joven.
53:31Social media is already calling it
53:32the Winter Revolution.
53:34To the best comeback
53:47in fashion history
53:48and to the women
53:50who made it happen.
53:51And to the maternity leave
53:53that actually means something.
53:58Mom,
53:58you might want to see this.
54:01Happy birthday, Victoria.
54:15Happy birthday to you!
54:21Guys, look!
54:25Maison Laveau on the brink?
54:27Scandal pushes fashion giant
54:28towards bankruptcy.
54:29Out!
54:31I guess karma has a sense of humor.
54:34It's strange, isn't it?
54:43I gave them everything.
54:46Late nights,
54:47weekends,
54:48all the best years
54:49and they tossed us aside
54:50like we were nothing.
54:53Now it's all crashing down.
54:54I thought I'd feel vindicated.
54:57Honestly, it's a weird mix.
54:59Relief, sure,
55:01but also a little bit of grief.
55:04Look,
55:05who said that our best years
55:06are behind us?
55:07Look at this!
55:10Joven pushes for
55:11paid leave
55:12and parental support
55:13across all industries.
55:16Victoria,
55:17this is you!
55:18You did this!
55:20Here's to a future
55:21where women don't have to choose
55:23between their families
55:24and their careers.
55:25not just for us
55:27but for every woman
55:28who comes after.
55:31Careful, Vincent.
55:32You almost forgot the best part.
55:45Victoria Winter.
55:46Will you marry me?
55:51Yes!
55:58A thousand times, yes!
56:03Woo!
56:03Woo!
56:12Woo!
56:12I've been spending all my days just trying to fool you away, but give me love when this
56:22You came. I thought you'd want to see me like this. I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:48When word got out you left, clients failed.
56:52The board freaked. Numbers tanked. I couldn't stop it.
56:58You steered Maison Laveau into this storm, Holly.
57:12I know. I know. My father...
57:18The stress gave him a heart attack. He won't even speak to me anymore.
57:21I destroyed everything.
57:23I thought slashing costs would save us, but instead I gutted the company.
57:29I didn't mean for it to end like this.
57:35Maison Laveau isn't dead.
57:37I bought it last week. The brand, the archives, even the debt. It's part of Jeven now.
57:46You bought it? Why would you do that?
57:49To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:54You win, Victoria. I hope you do better than I did.
58:03I'll do it differently. Goodbye, Holly.
58:16Miss Winter, I just... I wanted to thank you.
58:32Because of your campaign, my company gave me maternity leave.
58:36I can keep working and have my baby. You changed everything.
58:45Congratulations. Wishing you and your little one every happiness.
58:58Ready?
59:03Always.
59:06And now, Jovan's new collection, designed by Victoria Wintour and your two.
59:20Yeah!
59:20We can't go on every last minute on Earth.
