00:00Shit! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:03The whole system crashed and made upload!
00:05The collection is the wrong season!
00:07Wrong everything!
00:09No!
00:11I'm on the runway for 48 hours!
00:14Production starts with these bust designs, they're all dead!
00:18Not just fire, they're dead!
00:20Company of the losses our careers are over!
00:23Come out here and talk to us!
00:25We have 8 million tied up in this collection!
00:28Prepare to the passenger boat right now!
00:31One word from me, your age is poison!
00:47Enough!
00:48Nick!
00:51Mia, Japanese Indigo.
00:54Miranda, call production emergency protocol 7.
00:58Pauline, and Liz Vultures.
01:05Tell the boss to hold all calls any 28 minutes.
01:0928 minutes?
01:11The whole system takes 15 to move!
01:1327 now.
01:15Take a talk.
01:36Benjamin, crisis averted.
01:38I swear to god, you are not human.
01:4027 minutes!
01:4127 minutes!
01:43Holy shit!
01:44Pre-orders are flooding in!
01:45This will shatter every record!
01:53Vette!
01:54Are you okay?
01:55Just...
01:56Brax and Hicks, nothing to...
01:57Mom.
01:58Oh my god, your water broke!
02:00Mom.
02:01You were seriously in active labor while saving the entire company?
02:03Multitasking is my superpower pumpkin?
02:04Dad called.
02:05He wanted to know if we should come, but...
02:08I told him that he lost his visiting profile distance.
02:10He decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours...
02:11That's my girl.
02:25I told him that he lost his visiting particular distance.
02:28He decided that his assistance is more comfortable than ours.
02:32That's my girl.
02:43Well, the company's yours now, Holly.
02:45But there's a condition.
02:48We need to slash costs.
02:51Immediately.
02:53Layoffs?
02:54That's it without leave.
02:59Oh, Dad, I know exactly where to start our cuts.
03:03Just remember, we're cleaning up that Malayan disaster and get immunity.
03:09In fact, they deserve a promotion.
03:14No way this Batorian Winter saved the company since she's not even there.
03:21Boss, the Mulan collection crisis averted.
03:27Pre-orders are pouring in.
03:29You saved the entire collection.
03:32Impressive.
03:33Oh, Ashley.
03:35How about I make you the new creative director?
03:38Starting today.
03:39Oh my god, is this really happening?
03:43She's offering Victoria's job?
03:45I can finally get rid of that bitch thingy over my head?
03:49She's also using my new creative director.
03:52Oh, that means the spray was not fired.
03:53But-
03:54Victoria-
03:55Don't worry about her,
03:56that means the spray goes on fire.
03:58You know that collection I just rescued out?
04:05I hid something in the design.
04:08Your initials and now little graces.
04:11Hold right in the fabric.
04:18And that can give a long runway?
04:21Plus, the bonus from this collection is substantial.
04:24You're not fearful to wish in a private school.
04:28Mom, if we have to...
04:30We're going to that private school.
04:32No discussion.
04:34Your sister and I will manage just fine.
04:37This job will keep us apart.
04:39I love you, Mom.
04:41Holy shit, Holly actually thought I was the one who saved the company?
04:55After all these years in your shadow, Victoria, I'm finally taking what I deserve.
05:02Look, I'm going to fire every single one of them.
05:21What the hell?
05:23Listen up, everyone.
05:24Victoria Winter is terminated.
05:25Effective immediately.
05:26You can't just do that.
05:27She's in the hospital having her baby.
05:28They're a loss against this.
05:29Vic worked while in labor.
05:30She's a creative backbone of his own evolve.
05:31Maternity leave, medical insurance.
05:32These preggos are bleeding us dry.
05:33Everything okay here?
05:34No.
05:35No.
05:36No.
05:37No.
05:38No.
05:39No.
05:40No.
05:41No.
05:42No.
05:43No.
05:44No.
05:45No.
05:46No.
05:47No.
05:48No.
05:49No.
05:50No.
05:51No.
05:54No.
05:56Great timing…
05:57Victoria Winter, you're fired.
06:00Clear out your desk now…
06:10You're Matthew's daughter, aren't you?
06:12I saved this company three times when your Father could be bitter.
06:16Three times.
06:18Love. That's ancient history. The word was fresh blood. And me eager to save the entire
06:28and long collection.
06:33What? I'm the one who...
06:37Me or you.
06:40They like her. That's her signature. That's what makes it me sound like.
06:48How could you? I taught you everything you know.
07:00I wish things were different, Beck.
07:04I should have thought about your career before getting a friend then.
07:13What happens to my team?
07:15Miranda pulled all managed for a month straight working on your father's exclusive collections.
07:20Things are so bad you have to get hair implants.
07:24Pauline had to cancel her own wedding because of a company meeting at the Louvre.
07:29These jobs are their lifelines. Health insurance, paid maternity leave, basic human dignity.
07:34You can't just throw them away.
07:37Well, actually, legally speaking we can.
07:40No mandated paid maternity leave, no real protection today.
07:44That's corporate America for you.
07:46Or, we can shift the math.
07:49You sign, they stay, the budget works out.
07:54Think of it as taking on for the team.
08:00Miranda's still drowning in her husband's deaths.
08:03And Pauline's sister still needs another surgery.
08:06They can't lose their jobs.
08:12Come on, babe. You say a pair of them.
08:14Prove it.
08:16Come on, babe.
08:36Move all the time.
08:37You came here to me.
08:40How's it going?
08:41That's my severance package after 15 years, that's what I'm worth to-
08:56Be careful. I got you.
09:18Vincent? Vincent Chevalier?
09:22Hi. High school feels like another lifetime, doesn't it?
09:37So, it's true.
09:41Great Victoria Winter has been shown the door after single-handedly saving from the Royal's Malone Collection.
09:47How do you feel about not having to answer to single-minded executives in the world?
09:57Some of your kind of talent shouldn't be treated like this.
10:01What are you getting at exactly?
10:03I'm talking about you and me. Partners. You're genius. My money. No corporate BS. No one holding you back.
10:19I thought it'd be easy to think about now.
10:25And I have an empty corner office with you and an attached nursery.
10:31Just saying.
10:35Vincent Chevalier, wow! Who didn't expect to see the head of Chauvin?
10:39The head of Chauvin, our corporate net, is scrolling into the office.
10:43That who's by here?
10:47Don't mind me. I'm just giving Victoria here.
10:50Soft landing.
10:52Triple the salary. Corner office.
10:55Before the vultures at L.B. or Chanel soup in.
10:58Oh, so you're dumpster diving now.
11:02Rescuing a wash-up single mom with outdated ideas?
11:06Wow, that's an interesting take to have, considering you wearing Victoria's designs head-to-toe.
11:11I mean, the jacket, that's Victoria's spring collection, right?
11:17The earrings, that's Victoria's collaboration with Cartier.
11:19If her work is so far beneath you, maybe you should just strip.
11:27Shit, shit, shit.
11:29What are you talking about? Victoria designed all of this.
11:38Actually, those were my designs.
11:43What did you say?
11:45The spring collection.
11:47The Cartier pieces.
11:49I designed them.
11:51Under your supervision, of course.
11:52But they came from me.
11:54Oops.
11:55Looks like you've been backing her own horse, Vincent.
11:58I thought you were better than this man.
12:02Let us clean my signature.
12:04On the original sketch dated six months ago.
12:12So what, sketches get past her all the time.
12:14It doesn't really squat.
12:15Maybe she was in the middle, what did they call it?
12:18What's the line?
12:20On the logo?
12:24The EW, woven in.
12:27Victoria's signature mark.
12:29It's been on every major piece she's designed for years.
12:32Mommy, explain it.
12:33Maybe shut up.
12:34It's funny.
12:35All those pieces, with the Milan collection that everyone's losing their heart, they all have EW and GW's similar too.
12:46Victoria's daughter is Emily Winter.
12:51Her newborn is Grace Winter.
12:54It's just quite a coincidence that those initials should appear in all your designs, Mia.
12:59Is there a special EW and GW in your life too?
13:02Well Mia, tell them.
13:05Tell them you designed this.
13:07Tell them you saved Milan.
13:09The logo, it's...
13:12It's adapted based on traditional motifs.
13:16You lying little bitch!
13:19That promotion is for saving the company.
13:21Look at the logo again.
13:27It's not EW or GW.
13:31It's actually two M's.
13:34MM for McMichael, my last name.
13:40See?
13:41One M flipped.
13:43One upright.
13:44It's not for Grace or Emily.
13:48It's mine.
13:49That is absolutely ridiculous.
13:53Oh my god, she's right.
13:54It does look more like two M's.
13:58Human, if they look like two M's.
13:59She really thought you could steal the credit from my star designer.
14:04You learned well, Mia.
14:07Maybe two M's.
14:08You'll regret this.
14:12Come on, Missy.
14:13We don't have to sit down.
14:14Okay.
14:15Let me drive you over here.
14:16I have four hours outside.
14:18I got this.
14:19You shouldn't be carrying it.
14:21Through.
14:23Congratulations on your promotion, Mia.
14:26Just take care of a matter of holiday for you.
14:28That's right, get the hell out of my company.
14:29Go lead your 401K somewhere else.
14:30Call of Victoria.
14:31V.I.P.M. station.
14:32Paris Fashion Week.
14:34I just need to find it.
14:36I'm not going to be a matter of holiday for you.
14:37I don't have to wait for you.
14:39I have to wait for you, Mia.
14:40I'll be a matter of holiday for you.
14:41I'll be a matter of holiday.
14:42No, I don't have to wait for you.
14:43I'm going to be a matter of holiday.
14:44I don't have to wait for you.
14:46All of Vitoria, V.I.P.M. station, Paris Fashion Week.
14:55Front row, I didn't even find it. Lightning.
14:59Every pregnant woman fired. All of us. Just like that. No severance, no warning, nothing but a box of insecurity, Esker.
15:19Finally purge the company of those walking liabilities. Their termination before my property would pay for your sign and bonus when you're ready to start.
15:33Now, I'm not going to slash you again. Your designs are eerily lighted.
15:40She'll cut your legs closed.
15:49Oh my god, Mom. This is insane. I can't believe we're actually here.
15:56Victoria Winter, the nuclear pig. Your mom's basically a legend. You know that, right?
16:03We've been taking bets on where you'll land after Maison de Vaux. Their loss is definitely someone else's jackpot.
16:12Wait, Maison de Vaux?
16:15Well, well, the Queen Mother crown raises us for her presence. Great with you to show up here.
16:21What's next? Applying for retail jobs at the mall?
16:26Leaving so soon, you haven't introduced me to your princess.
16:31Is Mom a tear is going to build her little career update about getting canned for not cutting it anymore?
16:39Mom, is that true?
16:41Don't worry. She'll explain when she figures out how to keep paying her tuition bills.
16:49Ladies and gentlemen, Victoria Winter. Still pretending she matters.
16:56My mom is one of the most talented designers in this entire room.
17:01If Miss Honeywell was putting people like you in charge of the business, then maybe deserves to crush and burn!
17:07Well, look at that. It seems that entitlement runs with the family.
17:11Say whatever you want about me, but leave my daughter out of it.
17:15That's got a stain, huh? Exposes unemployed in front of your king and worships you like some kind of hero.
17:22But hey, good news. There's a factory down the street that's always looking for hardworking children.
17:27If paying bills is getting tough, maybe send her over there.
17:30That's enough.
17:31That's enough.
17:36That's enough.
17:38You've always been a fraud, Victoria. You never belonged in this world.
17:43Look at her. A jobless single mom still pretending she can afford couture.
17:47That dress...
17:50That's a cheap knockoff.
17:53Wearing fakes to Paris Fashion Week is not just pathetic.
17:57It's insulting to everyone here who actually deserves to be here.
18:01What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:06Remove that dress!
18:08We don't tolerate counterfeits in this industry.
18:11Hey, stop it! Let go of my mom!
18:15Let's see what garbage is really hiding under that dress.
18:19Take your hands off her now.
18:24Listen.
18:30You're dismissed.
18:31You alright?
18:44You alright?
18:46Jesus Christ, that's Vincent Chamellier.
18:49The conclusive leader who never shows up anywhere?
18:52What the hell is he doing with Victoria?
18:56That knockoff?
18:58That you so eager to trash her for?
18:59It's Chauvenne.
19:03Le Couture.
19:04Winter Collection.
19:06Not even released yet.
19:08Fast tag?
19:10300,000.
19:12Wow!
19:14You gave her that.
19:15That's right.
19:16You did.
19:18I would give her the entire damn collection if she wanted it.
19:22Oh my god, everyone mystery solved.
19:25Victoria's backed herself a sugar daddy!
19:27Mr. Billionaire's not a white knight, he's a walking trust fund.
19:32Victoria's sleeping her way from the top.
19:37It's just so predictably desperate.
19:40You really don't understand real talent.
19:46Do you?
19:48For those of you who don't know me,
19:50I'm Vincent Chamellier.
19:53CEO of Chamellier.
19:54Do you want to go to the college event?
19:56Yes.
19:58I have been in love with Victoria Winters since high school.
20:01I have followed your career from a distance for years.
20:05Your brilliance.
20:07Your principles.
20:09Your passion.
20:11Victoria, there is no one else like you in this entire industry.
20:14Boom.
20:15Did you know about this?
20:17I'm not going to pursue anything until she's ready.
20:21But in the meantime, what I will do
20:24is ensure that her incredible talent has the platform that it deserves.
20:29She won't let you down, boss.
20:31You're making a complete ass of yourself, Chevalier. She's-
20:35Your seats are waiting.
20:47Holy shit.
20:49The industry gold boy and the creative powerhouse together?
20:53Talk about a power couple.
20:55Making all the entire industry.
20:57This isn't over, bitch.
21:00Wait till you see what I prepared for.
21:05You seriously didn't love my mom since high school?
21:18Some talents.
21:20You recognize me.
21:23Some people do.
21:29Ladies and gentlemen, before we kick off tonight's show,
21:31I have an important announcement.
21:33This woman is nothing but a fraud and a thief.
21:37She's been stealing designs from my creative director for years.
21:42It's true.
21:43She took my work and passed it off as her own.
21:46I slaved away on those designs, day and night.
21:52And Victoria had the nerve to pass them off as her own.
21:55That's just the tip of the iceberg, isn't it, Victoria?
21:56Your entire career is based on lies and manipulation.
21:57That's enough, Holly.
21:58Everyone thinks you're a mis-creative genius, but I know what you really are.
22:00Your personal life is just as fake as the so-called talent.
22:02Did you know she slept with half the executives in the industry?
22:04That's her real design strategy.
22:05That's her real design strategy.
22:06Stop it, Holly.
22:07You're embarrassing yourself.
22:08And those kids she's so proud of.
22:09Who knows who their real talkers are.
22:10Who knows who their real talkers are.
22:11Who knows who their real talkers are.
22:12And those kids she's so proud of.
22:14Who knows who their real talkers are.
22:15the so-called talent did you know she slept with half the executives in the
22:20industry that's a real design strategy stop it all you're embarrassing yourself
22:26and those kids she's so proud of who knows who their real pockets are
22:32oh yeah you
22:38it's a disaster in there there's something wrong with the collection it's a fabric
22:43not now
22:49the primary drivers are disintegrating into the lights the dresses are literally falling apart
22:56oh we've only got 50 minutes left until showtime
22:59this is completely unprofessional I have 10 million invested in this collection
23:09this is breach of contract
23:13it's actually fixable
23:15you can't seriously be thinking about helping with backstabbing vultures
23:21breaking news from Paris fashion week
23:26masonville foe appears to be imploding underneath new leadership
23:29sources say the entire collection need to cancel
23:31minutes before showtime
23:33the question on everyone's mind is this the end for the once prestigious fashion weeks
23:38this show doesn't happen
23:43you're personally liable for the breach of this
23:46we're talking
23:47you're talking
23:48you're, are....
23:49you're, are you?
23:49you, are you personally not
23:54it's the end both nature
23:55you, are you?
24:02yeah, it's the end both night
24:05it's the end both night
24:07it's the end Rhonda from the next machine
24:09ever
24:11no
24:11theồng
24:12all
24:13hell
24:16How? The fiber supplier must have sent us effective materials. I can't magically make redresses in an hour.
24:24You have exactly 30 minutes to make this work. If you don't, those breach penalties are coming out of your pocket.
24:32That's billions of dollars.
24:35Then you better figure something out. Because if you don't, I'll never be fired. I'll make sure you never work in fashion again.
24:46Miss Winter, how do you respond to accusations over design theft?
24:57Is there any truth to Holly Jenkins' claims about your personal life?
25:01Please respect Miss Winter's privacy. And for the record, you'll all soon see who the real thief is. We're gathering evidence as we speak.
25:16What do you want, Mia?
25:23Vic, I really need your help.
25:30What do you want, Mia?
25:39Vic, I really need your help.
25:42Funny way to ask for a favor after that stunt you just pulled.
25:47Look, I know you're furious.
25:50I would be too.
25:51But think about Miranda and Philippe for a second.
25:54What about them?
25:55Their jobs are on the line with this show.
25:57If we tank, they're done.
26:00Holly will fire them without a second thought.
26:03Please, if you care about them keeping their jobs, just pull this out.
26:09Miranda and Holly are responsible for this show.
26:11Yes, absolutely.
26:13And they're counting on this being a hit.
26:16Please, Vic, not for me.
26:18For that, it's weird.
26:21I would have expected them to be here in Paris, you know, for such a make-or-break show.
26:25What exactly happened to them, Mia?
26:27They, they couldn't make it.
26:33Holly cut the travel budget.
26:35Is that right?
26:38Victoria, I know I don't deserve your help.
26:43They do.
26:44Fine.
26:47I'll help.
26:48But I'm doing this to Miranda and Pauline.
26:51Not for you.
26:52Oh my god.
27:04It's Victoria Winter.
27:06The nuclear vec.
27:07I need scissors, thread, and fresh lining fabric now.
27:10I need royal fuchsia for this statue.
27:19Regular fuchsia won't work with this fabric.
27:22Does anyone have royal fuchsia thread?
27:27Can this work?
27:28Vincent, how did you...
27:37I figured you might need some supplies, so I had my assistant bring over Javen as an emergency kit.
27:43This is perfect, but Javen and Maison Lavo are competitors, so why would you help them?
27:53I'm not helping them.
27:56I'm helping you.
27:59I can't ask you to do this without giving me something in return.
28:02I have a design I've been saving.
28:04Something special I've never shown anyone.
28:07It's yours now.
28:09I don't want your design, Victoria.
28:13Then what do you want?
28:16You.
28:18What?
28:22You're a talent.
28:24You're a vision.
28:26Come and work as you have.
28:29I'm in.
28:30I'll work for you.
28:32Just like that?
28:34Just like that.
28:35Now?
28:36Let me finish my final job for my son Lavo.
28:38I hate it when I'm all in school.
28:46I wish I was cool.
28:48Like that I'm going to school.
28:51I regret it.
28:52So I'm a get, I'm a get, I'm a get, I'm a get.
28:54I won't be bad.
28:58Don't ever change.
29:00I'm going to be proud of my name.
29:06She's doing it in minutes.
29:08What would have taken us hours?
29:10Whoa.
29:11No wonder they call it a nuclear bitch.
29:14It's so fucked up watching her fix my disaster like it's nothing.
29:17The woman I replaced making me look like an amateur.
29:20Five minutes to show time.
29:27We made it.
29:28Well, do we pull the plug or not?
29:43We're good.
29:44Everything's back on track.
29:46See?
29:47I knew firing Victoria was the right call.
29:50You've got twice your talent.
29:53Yeah.
29:54Right.
29:54This is exactly why I promoted you.
29:58You mean big success is not makeup.
30:06To Victoria.
30:09The real hero of the night.
30:10Mom, you're insane.
30:23I can't believe you actually fixed that disaster in under an hour.
30:27Couldn't have done it without you.
30:28You know, if you start dating before we work together, it doesn't count as an office for my ex.
30:40Well, well, still hanging around.
30:43I thought you'd be too embarrassed to show your face at the after party.
30:46Fraud.
30:48Holly, why did most models happen backstage tonight?
30:52What are you talking about?
30:53Just ask the models.
30:55Any of them.
30:58Oh, and Mia.
31:00Don't forget about our agreement.
31:02About Miranda and Pauline.
31:03I think I won't be.
31:09Two new beginnings, such a event.
31:18Speaking of new beginnings.
31:20Emily's private school application is due next month, right?
31:25I want to help.
31:27With their education.
31:29What?
31:30This and that.
31:31That's too much.
31:32We barely know each other.
31:34Victoria.
31:36I've known you since we were 17.
31:39I remember
31:40watching you win that regional competition.
31:44In that silver dress.
31:46The one you made from scratch.
31:48I saw
31:49the way your eyes lit up
31:51when you talked about
31:52changing the fashion world.
31:55Do you remember that?
31:57I remember everything.
32:00I
32:01have followed your career
32:03all these years,
32:04just
32:05hoping that our paths would cross again.
32:08Why didn't you let her reach out?
32:10We were married.
32:11And then worse.
32:15And then you were building your career.
32:18Timing was
32:19is not right.
32:22Until now.
32:23I have been away
32:33for 20 years to do this.
32:36I should
32:49probably get this.
32:51Mia?
33:00Mia?
33:04God, I'm so ready
33:05about firing Victoria.
33:07That Milan disaster
33:08you turned around,
33:09absolute magic.
33:11And now I have an opportunity
33:12to complete you
33:13in the maps for good.
33:15Sean Gosling
33:15needs a tuxedo
33:16for the Oscars' red carpet.
33:20Sean Gosling?
33:22He?
33:22Sean Gosling?
33:24The very one
33:25three-time Oscar winner
33:26People's Sexies and Unalive.
33:28And if you play her cards right,
33:30the next place
33:31in the news
33:31only goes in the square.
33:33They're taking pitches now.
33:35If he picks yours,
33:37this changes everything.
33:38For you,
33:39for the brand.
33:40Where it is,
33:41you should have ended the money too.
33:43Landless,
33:45Vincent is
33:45where Victoria
33:46are done.
33:51Seal the deal?
33:52I'll bump your pay
33:53by 20%.
33:54I've got this,
33:56Holly.
33:56You won't regret it.
34:04God,
34:05what am I gonna do?
34:06I can't
34:06design menswear.
34:08I barely pulled off
34:09the woman's
34:10with Victoria's help.
34:11Moran and Felina
34:12are gone too.
34:13I'm completely
34:14on my own.
34:15If
34:16Holly bought
34:18that
34:18I saved Milan
34:19and fixed Paris
34:20when it was
34:21all Victoria,
34:23maybe
34:24I can
34:25squeeze one more vehicle
34:26over.
34:26thanks for meeting me.
34:49I know things are complicated
34:50between us.
34:51You mentioned
34:52Miranda and Pauline.
34:54Cut to the chase.
34:54We're pitching for
34:59Sean's Oscar text.
35:00Miranda and Pauline
35:01are also on the team.
35:02Miranda's excellent
35:03with menswear.
35:04She can handle this without me.
35:05Please, wait.
35:05There's more to it.
35:07After Paris,
35:08Holly and someone
35:09play for the fabric disaster.
35:11Miranda and Pauline
35:12are on the chopping block.
35:14I've been fighting for them.
35:16Are you serious?
35:17Pauline's due
35:18any day now.
35:19Trust me,
35:20I know
35:20this project
35:21is our only shot.
35:22If we land it,
35:23I can convince Pauline
35:24to keep them both.
35:25Have you worked
35:26with Sean before?
35:27No,
35:28but I've heard you have.
35:30Ages ago,
35:32I did a jacket
35:33frame for the Med Gala.
35:35Actually,
35:35I was sketching
35:36a new tuxedo concept
35:37right before
35:37I left Mason alone.
35:39Really?
35:40What concept?
35:40Well...
35:47Perfect.
36:00She's handing
36:01everything over
36:01without even realizing.
36:03I'll use her design
36:04to save my ass
36:05and land this project.
36:08Do you still have
36:09any of the sketches
36:09in her?
36:10I do.
36:13Actually,
36:13I took them with me
36:15when I left Mason alone.
36:17Wait.
36:19Miranda went on
36:20her 20-day leave
36:21last week.
36:21How exactly
36:22is she part
36:23of this project?
36:24Well,
36:25since she's
36:26the best mentor
36:26and designer we have,
36:28I'll be letting
36:28her work from home.
36:30Is the company
36:31covering her
36:31health insurance?
36:33Of course,
36:34Vic.
36:35Pauline and Miranda's
36:37jobs are on the line.
36:38who is going to take
36:42and take all the time
36:44you need?
36:45Mia,
36:45don't make me regret
36:48trusting you.
36:49Again.
36:50I can't.
36:51Pumpkin, I need a quick favor.
37:10Remember that tuxedo sketch
37:11I was working on
37:12before everything was sideways?
37:14The Sean Gosselin one
37:15with the black
37:16ties and lapels?
37:17That's the one.
37:18Can you check my
37:19home office?
37:20It should be
37:21in the portfolio
37:21marked men's
37:22formal 2025.
37:24Got it.
37:26Grace is napping.
37:27For the perfect timing.
37:28Thanks, sweetie.
37:28I just need to
37:30double check
37:30about the
37:31shoulder
37:35destruction.
37:38Mom, are you okay?
37:43Miranda?
37:45Vic?
37:50Mom, Mom,
37:51what's going on?
37:54Emily, I'll call you
37:55right back.
37:57Miranda,
37:58what happened?
37:59Why the hell
37:59are you scrubbing
38:00toilets?
38:01Those don't
38:02pay themselves.
38:04You met my husband,
38:05old child
38:06with no paycheck
38:07and now there's
38:08a newborn at home.
38:09Mia said you were
38:10on maternity leave
38:11working remotely
38:12on the Gosselin
38:13project.
38:14What?
38:15Isn't this a story
38:16she's spinning now?
38:19After you left,
38:21she fired every
38:22pregnant woman
38:23in the company.
38:24No severance,
38:25no copper,
38:25nothing.
38:26Just gone.
38:28That's completely
38:29illegal.
38:31Company lawyers
38:32said that we all
38:33suddenly violated
38:34some very performance
38:35clause.
38:36All at once.
38:37What are the odds,
38:38right?
38:39And Polly,
38:41parking night shifts
38:42at 24 hours
38:43down here.
38:44Her sister,
38:46medical bills,
38:46keep piling up.
38:47and Mia knew about
38:54all this.
38:55Mia,
38:56front row seat
38:58when Hal
38:59made an announcement
39:00didn't blink.
39:02To be said,
39:03by her shiny new
39:04creative direct title,
39:06she's been using
39:08you and Polly
39:08to manipulate me,
39:10telling me her job
39:11depended on me
39:12helping her.
39:13what?
39:15That bitch!
39:18This ends now.
39:25Damn it!
39:30Can you see I'm working on something important?
39:38What are you all looking at?
39:50Get back to work!
39:52Victoria will never
39:52shoot us.
39:55I heard that.
39:57You think Victoria
39:58is so perfect?
40:00Then where is she now?
40:01Gone.
40:02Now I'm in charge,
40:03and if anyone
40:04has a problem with that,
40:05there's a door.
40:06What the hell is going on here?
40:16Just a great disagreement.
40:19Everything's in control.
40:20The calls in case
40:21tell me it was
40:22something presentable.
40:27Of course,
40:28I'm just finalizing
40:29the details.
40:29Show me.
40:31I'm still
40:32until you're ready.
40:32Now.
40:36This is garbage.
40:41Absolute garbage!
40:43I just need a little more time.
40:44I don't have more time.
40:46This is Sean Gawson
40:46we're talking about.
40:48It's your thing.
40:49It's this deal
40:50instead of us.
40:54What's that?
40:55It's just some inspiration
41:01I recorded for the design.
41:05I don't care
41:06if you have to sell
41:07your soul to the devil,
41:08get me when I design
41:09it tomorrow morning,
41:11or pack up your desk
41:12by lunch!
41:12I still can't believe
41:37a mutiny slurage.
41:39Right on cue.
41:48Meet that sketch
41:50ASAP.
41:51Miranda and
41:52Pauline's futures
41:53depend on it.
41:55The absolute
41:55nerve of this woman!
41:59She'll get her sketch.
42:01And that's
42:02when we spin the trap.
42:02You're early.
42:16Vic,
42:17I really need that sketch.
42:26I said I'd help,
42:28not hand over my design.
42:30Pauline's
42:30all over me
42:31about this.
42:32If I don't have
42:33something tonight,
42:34Miranda and
42:34Pauline are toast.
42:37Still lying,
42:38Mia.
42:39You'll never learn.
42:40Guess it's
42:41payback time.
42:42So,
42:43do you want
42:44my help or not?
42:45I can walk you
42:46through it.
42:46Your design
42:47could be just as good.
42:48She's such a snake!
42:51Ah!
42:52Vic,
42:52my stomach
42:53is killing me!
42:54Can I run
42:55to the pharmacy
42:55and get something,
42:56please?
42:58Fine.
42:59Don't touch
43:00anything.
43:26Sorry,
43:26I survived all the best.
43:28You just want her to take your work?
43:43She walked out with exactly what I wanted her to have.
43:48You know, boss, we could pitch ourselves.
43:52Go after the same clients.
43:54Show them what real design looks like.
43:57We're not out yet.
43:58I heard there's a revolution rope.
44:17I figure you can use all the backup you can get.
44:22You're welcome, Mom.
44:23I want you and your team as your men.
44:32Full creative control.
44:35On Miranda, your husband's debt, handled.
44:39And every casino in the country can tell he's not welcome.
44:43Especially, I...
44:45I'm Pauline.
44:47Your sister is in good hands.
44:50The best heart surgeon in the country.
44:52She's already prepping for her next surgery.
44:55Mr. Chevalier!
44:57Thank you!
44:58Don't thank me.
45:00Thank Victoria.
45:01I'm just looking out for the people she believes in.
45:03It's about time.
45:11You all get what you deserve.
46:05I'm your cellar.
46:21Final tweaks, the pitch goes out tomorrow.
46:27You've got Grace to sleep.
46:32Yeah.
46:33And Emily's almost finished with her algebra.
46:39Maybe new beginnings aren't so scary after all.
46:47Remember, smile.
46:49We're about to make history.
46:53Maison Laveau sets the bar.
46:56We don't follow trends.
46:58We create them.
46:59Satin black lapels, nod to Mr. Sean Gosling's Metcalfe moment, a blend of tradition and boldness.
47:13I think we can all agree Maison Laveau is back on top.
47:16What is that bitch doing here?
47:24Thank you, Mr. Jenkins, for clearing out your best talent.
47:32My company is thriving because of your generosity.
47:37I didn't expect to see you here.
47:40We thought you'd be all tied up with PTA meetings and diaper changes.
47:44I multitask.
47:48Unlike some, I don't need to fire half my staff to feel competent.
47:52You know, Howie, your fresh blood strategies work in wonders.
47:57The office is so empty with echoes.
47:59And the only thing growing at Maison Laveau is the legal risk.
48:05Pregnant woman talk, you know.
48:07Three S&P's and one CEO.
48:10But next, the big sale?
48:12Laugh all you want, Holly.
48:14You're about to see what real team are listening.
48:17And what real loyalty looks like.
48:19Sean, I'm glad you can make it.
48:34We have something very special to show you.
48:39Vic.
48:43I thought you just had a beautiful baby girl.
48:46You never know.
48:47Congratulations.
48:48Thank you, Sean.
48:49It's good to see you.
48:51Let's begin the pitches.
48:55You ready to lose?
48:56You're out of your league.
48:58You should know by now, I don't play by your rules.
49:08First up, me and McMichael.
49:09Maison Laveau.
49:10Next, Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
49:31Beautiful work.
49:41Both, please.
49:43We'll need a few minutes to discuss.
49:48After careful consideration, we're awarding Project 2.
50:00Maison Laveau.
50:02Oh, yeah!
50:03Oh, my God.
50:04Of course.
50:06This is what we planned all along.
50:09Okay.
50:09What the hell did you keep a put me in?
50:21Are you trying to kill me?
50:23Mr. Galsing has a serious allergy to synthetic silk.
50:26Who designed a tuxedo?
50:27Did you even read the brief?
50:32I mean, you must have read the brief.
50:34It's not complicated.
50:36It says no synthetic blends.
50:39I mean, there must be some endless sleep.
50:42Perhaps me overlooked something.
50:44A mistake?
50:45I could have ended up in the emergency room.
50:47Victoria, please, tell these amateurs why you pulled your glasses off.
51:00I pulled my design because the only fabric left was synthetic.
51:05I'd never risk Mr. Galsing's health for a deadline.
51:08And that's why Victoria is the best.
51:10Which actually pays attention.
51:12After reviewing all the entries, the committee has reached a decision.
51:15The commission goes to Victoria, Miranda, and Pauline.
51:22Mr. Galsing was just a slip-up.
51:25He was designed as a front runner all along.
51:28That's why they picked her first.
51:40Wait, Mia, did you actually steal Victoria's design?
51:45Not to be low, even for you.
51:54Nathan Laveau will be hearing from my letters.
51:58And so you know,
52:00I will be supporting Victoria's case for this event.
52:05Nathan Laveau's reputation is toast.
52:08We're suspending all collaborations.
52:20Don't even think about Tronland anywhere else.
52:23You're blacklisted.
52:29Victoria, please.
52:31Victoria, please.
52:42I'll do anything.
52:43Please just help me save the company that Brad you built for 15 years.
52:48You made your choices, Holly.
52:50Now you live with them.
52:54Why would you have gone too far?
52:55Sean Galsing's look tonight is a game changer crafted by the trailblazing teenager men.
53:06Social media is already calling it the Winter Revolution.
53:09To the best comeback in fashion history and to the women who made it happen.
53:23And to the maternity leave that actually means something.
53:29Mom, you might want to see this.
53:32Happy birthday, Victoria.
53:46Happy birthday to you!
53:53Nice.
53:53Look!
53:56Maison Laveau on the brink?
53:58The scandal pushed the fashion giant towards bankruptcy.
54:01Ouch!
54:03I guess Karma has a sense of humor.
54:06It's strange, isn't it?
54:11I gave them everything.
54:13Late nights, weekends, all the best years, and they tossed us aside like we were nothing.
54:20Now it's all crashing down.
54:22I thought I felt vindicated.
54:25Honestly, it's a weird mix.
54:26Relief, sure, but also a little bit of grief.
54:31Look, who said that our best years are behind us?
54:35Look at this!
54:38She then pushes for paid leave and parental support across all industries.
54:44Victoria, this is you!
54:46You did this!
54:47Here's to a future where women don't have to choose between our families and their careers.
54:54Not just for us, but for every woman who comes after.
54:58Careful, Vincent.
55:00What's the best part?
55:08Bye.
55:13Victoria Winter.
55:14Will you marry me?
55:23Yes!
55:24A thousand times yes!
55:26Woo!
55:26Woo!
55:38Woo!
55:39Woo!
55:39Woo!
55:39Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:40Woo!
55:41Woo!
55:41Woo!
55:42Woo!
55:42Woo!
55:42Woo!
55:42Woo!
55:44Give me love and listen to all the people
55:48You came. I thought you'd want to see me leave this.
56:07I came because I wanted to hear it from you.
56:11When word got out, you left. Clients bailed.
56:16The board freed. Numbers taped. I couldn't stop it.
56:21You stood mace on the boat into this storm, Holly.
56:28I know. I know.
56:32My father...
56:34The stress gave me a heart attack. He won't speak to me anymore.
56:39I destroyed everything.
56:42My thoughts slashed and cost and saved us, but instead I cut the company.
56:48I don't mean for a time like this.
56:51Maison Laval isn't dead. I bought it. Last week.
56:56The brand. The archives. Even the debt. It's part of Jevan now.
57:03If you wanted, why would you do that?
57:06To make sure that no more women have to suffer because of policies like yours.
57:11You and Victoria. To help you do better than I did.
57:18I'll do it differently. Goodbye, Holly.
57:23Miss Winter. I just... I want to thank you.
57:43Because of your campaign, my company gave me my turn to leave.
57:49I can keep working and have my baby.
57:54You changed everything.
57:57Congratulations.
57:59Wishing you and your little one every happens.
58:02Nice.
58:11Ready?
58:15Always.
