00:00:00I can't find a delivery anywhere. The entire Anya Winter-Spring collection is missing hours before the Paris runway show.
00:00:10I can't get the courier on the phone. This is a nightmare!
00:00:13Bad news. The delivery truck lost control.
00:00:1730 couture gouts. Destroyed. We're gonna have to cancel the show.
00:00:21No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is Anya's biggest collection ever, okay?
00:00:26She worked on it for years, and if she comes back and we have nothing to show, we're all dead!
00:00:32What other designer besides Anya can make an entire couture collection in just hours?
00:00:38Don't worry guys. I can handle it.
00:00:41Didn't she graduate college like yesterday?
00:00:44She definitely looks like she just pulled an all-nighter in a library.
00:00:47There's no way some intern who grabs coffee and schedules Anya's lunches can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:52Guys, there's no time to argue. The show is in five hours! What are we gonna do?
00:00:57Give me that.
00:01:05And this.
00:01:09What is she doing?
00:01:11She's not even using a pattern.
00:01:16I've never seen someone beat so quickly.
00:01:19Invisible stitching, it's immaculate.
00:01:23There you have it. A gown fit for the Anya winter spring couture collection.
00:01:32This is impossible.
00:01:34I thought you were just some delusional intern, but this dress...
00:01:39Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:43This is gonna launch a million dupes, but none of them are gonna come close to the real thing.
00:01:47I heard Anya recently hired a fashion school prodigy who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:54Is that you?
00:01:55Oh no, it still doesn't work!
00:02:07Um, Miss Winter, I'm here to...
00:02:10I'm here for the fall internship.
00:02:12It's Anya.
00:02:14Why would I have time to interview some useless errand-running baby when the fall couture show is in two days and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:22May I?
00:02:23Sure.
00:02:30So sorry that I ripped the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:33Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:37Not everybody knows that.
00:02:40An entire team of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:46Forget about the internship.
00:02:48You are gonna be my head designer.
00:02:52There's no time to explain.
00:02:54We need 29 more gowns to make before the show.
00:02:56It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:57Where are we gonna find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:03:00Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:03:02And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:05And rip the fringe of the carpet.
00:03:07And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:09And I need flowers.
00:03:10Stat!
00:03:14But we're gonna destroy this place!
00:03:15Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:19Anya will understand.
00:03:28Holy cow.
00:03:30This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
00:03:33You're a visionary.
00:03:34Now let's kill this fashion show.
00:03:37I'm speechless.
00:03:38I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:40This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:42Dior who?
00:03:43Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:44You all head back to the studio.
00:03:45I'll grab some champagne to celebrate.
00:03:50Ah!
00:03:51I'm speechless.
00:03:52I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:53This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:56Dior who?
00:03:57Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:59I don't know.
00:04:09You all head back to the studio,
00:04:11I'll grab some champagne to celebrate.
00:04:12Oh my God!
00:04:15I can't believe Danny completed
00:04:16this entire collection overnight.
00:04:18Where'd she even come from?
00:04:19No clue, but her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:22What the hell is going on here?
00:04:29This is disgusting.
00:04:31Is this a design studio or the girls' bathroom of a club?
00:04:35We make groundbreaking pieces with our hands,
00:04:38not our big fat mouths.
00:04:39Jordan, who is this woman?
00:04:41Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:42PR?
00:04:43This woman is the daughter of Anya Winter.
00:04:47Vanessa got her degree from central St. Martin's in London
00:04:52and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:55And she'll be acting as CEO
00:04:56while Anya recovers from a minor heart attack.
00:05:00Is this really the design team
00:05:01that created the top couture collection
00:05:03in all of Paris Fashion Week?
00:05:05Because all I'm seeing is a bunch of incompetent yappers.
00:05:08If this is about the original collection-
00:05:10I didn't ask you to speak.
00:05:13You're fired.
00:05:14Pack up your bags and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:19Anya Winter is now the top couture collection
00:05:22in the entire world.
00:05:24Time to separate the fashion icons from the frogs.
00:05:28You think my mother is a hard ass?
00:05:30Just you wait.
00:05:31I expect only the most original, exciting sketches,
00:05:35lightning-fast designs, and perfect technicality.
00:05:40And no unnecessary distractions.
00:05:42Who does she think she is?
00:05:43Miranda Priestly?
00:05:45Oh my god.
00:05:51What is this?
00:05:52Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:59No!
00:06:00That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:05Well, you should have done a better job reinforcing your seams.
00:06:09Jordan, be a doll and go get her a souvenir Eiffel Tower keychain as a thank you for her hard work.
00:06:16Oh yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:22Okay!
00:06:24Now please, can somebody show me something?
00:06:27A collection!
00:06:28Congratulations!
00:06:32Who are you?
00:06:33You.
00:06:35You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:38You're fired.
00:06:41Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:43Danny Maxwell.
00:06:45Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:49Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:51She's an intern?
00:06:54So what?
00:06:55You decided that you could take advantage of my mother's showroom to throw a rager
00:06:59the night before the biggest couture show in the history of this house?
00:07:03That's not what we...
00:07:05I would say we could take out the damages from your salary,
00:07:08but you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:11Actually, she's our highest paid employee.
00:07:12She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:15Jordan!
00:07:16That's...
00:07:17That's confidential.
00:07:18So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:20You know, she might be getting old, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:23And what?
00:07:25This is how you spend the money?
00:07:27No, no.
00:07:28Look, the team was up all night working.
00:07:30Our hands are cramping.
00:07:31We're tired, but we saved the spring show.
00:07:35Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:38Celebrate.
00:07:38By destroying a studio, lying, talking back to your superiors, drinking on the job?
00:07:48No wonder my mother had a heart attack.
00:07:51Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities.
00:07:55Unless, of course, you're just as useful as she is.
00:07:58Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:02Jordan and I have been dating for two years.
00:08:05He knows how hard I work.
00:08:07There's no way he's going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:09Danny's my girlfriend.
00:08:10If I take her side, I'll be committing career suicide.
00:08:14You're right.
00:08:15Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:20Jordan, seriously?
00:08:22What are you still doing here, intern?
00:08:25Pack up your shit and get out of here.
00:08:27If that's how it's going to be.
00:08:28This isn't Danny's fault.
00:08:30She's the one who saved.
00:08:31Oh!
00:08:33Do you want to go with her?
00:08:35If anyone else here helps Danny destroy this studio, please feel free to speak up now.
00:08:41It's okay, guys.
00:08:43Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now.
00:08:45You've all earned your spots.
00:08:48It was my fault.
00:08:52Then leave it.
00:08:56How could you?
00:09:01Leave back.
00:09:03Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:08Baby!
00:09:09I'm so sorry.
00:09:12We've been together for two years.
00:09:13You couldn't even defend me?
00:09:14She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:17Look, we both know that I don't have a degree.
00:09:21And it's a miracle that you got me this job.
00:09:25And if I lose it, then who's going to pay for all the expensive champagne that we're going to have
00:09:31at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:34Well, you better spring for caviar too.
00:09:38You owe me big time, Jordan.
00:09:41I promise I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:44Let's meet tonight at eight.
00:09:46Okay?
00:09:47Let's have a magical last night in Paris.
00:09:51I'll see you then.
00:09:51You're frumpy little girlfriend is a recipe for bad press.
00:10:01So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:05Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:07Thanks not much.
00:10:08She better not be.
00:10:13You're hot, you know.
00:10:15My mother wants to start a menswear line.
00:10:18You could be the PR director.
00:10:21What do you prefer?
00:10:22An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:24Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:26Say it.
00:10:31Mommy.
00:10:32What else?
00:10:35What else?
00:10:36Does baby need a change?
00:10:38Baby needs a change.
00:10:39Mm-hmm.
00:10:40Yeah, he does.
00:10:40What does it change?
00:10:41Stinky.
00:10:42Stinky son of a bitch.
00:10:45Yes, mother.
00:10:47Mm-hmm.
00:10:50Stupid people.
00:10:52They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:59I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:11:02I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:11:07I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:09Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:12I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:16You better treat her right.
00:11:19Maxwell?
00:11:21Oh, God.
00:11:22Is that the frumpy intern I just fired?
00:11:24Hello?
00:11:25I'm speaking to you.
00:11:26Yes, mother.
00:11:27One second.
00:11:30Is there any other Maxwell on the design team?
00:11:32Oh, I must have set me a staff list at some point.
00:11:38She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:41A creative genius.
00:11:43I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't
00:11:48get their hands on her.
00:11:49Without her, this whole house will crumble.
00:11:59Don't worry, mother.
00:12:01I'll treat her like a queen.
00:12:02You better.
00:12:04And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:07What is her name?
00:12:08Anyway, she is a fucking disaster.
00:12:10A brain-dead nepo baby intern who never shows up.
00:12:14And when she does, she's useless.
00:12:18Do me a favor.
00:12:19Fire her.
00:12:21Thank God.
00:12:22Of course, that tasteless tornado I fired was just a pointless intern.
00:12:26Don't worry, mother.
00:12:27I already handled it.
00:12:32I'll come check on things the second they discharge me from this hellhole.
00:12:37Rest up, and I'll take care of everything.
00:12:40I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:47Now, where were we?
00:12:48What the hell do you want?
00:12:56The studio phone's been ringing off the hook.
00:12:58Well, who is it?
00:13:00It's Solea's team.
00:13:01Solea?
00:13:03As in the most famous actress in the world?
00:13:05She needs a dress for the Met Gala.
00:13:07She wants to see sketches for five looks inspired by the new collection.
00:13:12In one hour.
00:13:15Well, let's hope Maxwell can pull this off.
00:13:18Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:24Jordan, get Brynn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:37What happened?
00:13:37I thought everyone would hate me for causing the crash that destroyed the whole collection,
00:13:41but I guess they've got bigger problems.
00:13:44Dani, the grumpy dumbass.
00:13:49She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:13:51Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:13:54No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:58I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:05I'm definitely getting fired.
00:14:07Where are you?
00:14:08We need five sketches to send to Solea's team for her Met Gala look ASAP.
00:14:12Miss Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:18Be right there.
00:14:21Why would they ask me, a brand new intern, to dress the most famous woman in the world?
00:14:26Whatever.
00:14:27I'll use Dani's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:31Oh my gosh, I'm gonna be a star.
00:14:35Well, Brynn's handling it.
00:14:37Nice work.
00:14:38Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, I'm so sick.
00:14:43I know.
00:14:45This partnership will take this brand to a whole new level.
00:14:49And as acting CEO of this fashion house, I'll be invited to the best parties with the most rich and famous people.
00:14:56And you can be my D.
00:14:58Unless, of course, you want to go with Dani.
00:15:01Where is Jordan? He's 20 when it's late.
00:15:08No, I, I don't want her.
00:15:11I was gonna break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:14I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:17Hmm, good choice.
00:15:21Guess I'll just drag him here myself.
00:15:23God, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:36It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:39She is a fashion superstar, okay? And you're just...
00:15:47An unemployed loser.
00:15:48You spineless dick.
00:15:51You psycho bitch, are you out of your fucking mind?
00:15:53That's it, you cheating piece of...
00:15:55Dani, Dani, you are embarrassing yourself.
00:15:58I'm the embarrassment.
00:16:00Three hours ago, you were begging for my forgiveness.
00:16:03And now you're shoving your tongue down your new boss's throat?
00:16:05Oh, fuck!
00:16:07Know your place, you tacky, talentless slob.
00:16:12Face it, Dani.
00:16:13You're a fool.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for...
00:16:17upgrading.
00:16:22I love to, Jordan.
00:16:24And the only reason you're here is because of...
00:16:27Because I told Anya to make you PR management.
00:16:29Are you kidding me?
00:16:31More ridiculous lies.
00:16:33You? You're a deadbeat intern.
00:16:35As if my mother would have anything to do with you.
00:16:40We are over.
00:16:48I'm calling security.
00:16:50Why don't you call your mother instead?
00:16:51The founder of this house.
00:16:54She'll tell you that you're making a huge mistake.
00:16:57You know, enough with the bullshit, Dani.
00:16:59It's cringe.
00:17:00Is this how you got your job here?
00:17:01By spewing insane lies?
00:17:03Hi, security.
00:17:05Yes, there's a delusional ex-employee who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:12Oh, Dani.
00:17:13Don't be sad.
00:17:14Look, I get it.
00:17:15I'm powerful.
00:17:17Smart.
00:17:19Experienced.
00:17:20And you?
00:17:23Well, you're jobless, talentless, and irrelevant.
00:17:27Look, if I were you, I would go on home and drown your sorrows in a bottle of cheap champagne.
00:17:34Unless, of course, you'd rather spend your last night in Paris in a jail cell.
00:17:36Fine.
00:17:39I'm done here anyway.
00:17:40And where do you think you're going, Dani?
00:17:46Guards!
00:17:47She's over here.
00:17:51Who the hell are you?
00:17:52I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture Collection.
00:17:55Brynn Maxwell.
00:17:58Oh, wow.
00:18:00Well, I can see why my mother sung your praises.
00:18:04Oh, is that an archival saline bag?
00:18:08Well, you obviously have impeccable taste.
00:18:11It's no wonder you created such a groundbreaking collection.
00:18:14These dumbasses don't even know that I'm totally jacking Dani's glory.
00:18:18Who cares?
00:18:19As long as Anya's daughter thinks I'm a genius,
00:18:21I'll get promoted to creative director without lifting a finger.
00:18:25Vanessa, I know who's responsible for destroying Anya's first Spring Collection.
00:18:32She's the one that made the routing error that caused the truck to crash.
00:18:35She's obviously trying to sabotage the brand.
00:18:38What?
00:18:46Dani's done it again.
00:18:48You know that one design school prodigy you've had your eye on?
00:18:50Dani Maxwell?
00:18:52She was just fired from Anya Winter's fashion house.
00:18:54But the show's a hit, how is that possible?
00:18:56Apparently, Anya's daughter, Vanessa, forced her out.
00:18:59Of course.
00:19:00I would love to see the look on Anya Winter's face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo of
00:19:05a daughter fired her star designer.
00:19:09Call Dani up.
00:19:09Let's get her here.
00:19:10But Anya Winter's is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:13We're not even ranked top ten.
00:19:14Dior and Chanel are probably banging down Dani's door already.
00:19:18You really think she would work for us?
00:19:19I'll do anything to get Dani on this team.
00:19:21Rumor has it that Leia is looking for a new designer for her Met Gala look.
00:19:25And if we can dress the most famous woman on the planet on the biggest night in fashion,
00:19:30we'll be the new brand on top.
00:19:34Get the jet ready.
00:19:35I'm going to Paris.
00:19:37And I'm not leaving without Dani Maxwell.
00:19:42Sabotage?
00:19:43Are you kidding me?
00:19:44You can take the fall from my stupid mistake, Dani.
00:19:47Who will believe you over me?
00:19:49You were out partying all night when you should have been confirming the route with the courier.
00:19:52And you destroyed my mother's studio on your drunken bender.
00:19:56You all see me as some incompetent intern,
00:19:58just because I'm not wearing the latest off-the-runway clothes.
00:20:01Maybe daddy's black card can buy you Celine, but can it buy you talent too?
00:20:06You think I caused that disaster?
00:20:08You think she is your savior?
00:20:11Well then best of luck when Anya comes back and sees what a mess you've made.
00:20:14This is your mess, Dani Maxwell.
00:20:17I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate BS.
00:20:20Don't touch me.
00:20:24Jordan, don't let them do this.
00:20:25We both know you're not capable of handling the outcome.
00:20:27First you threaten Brynn, and then you threaten me.
00:20:32You know, you shouldn't be such a bitter bitch, Dani.
00:20:35You know, jealousy looks hideous on you.
00:20:38So why don't you go ahead and pick up your mistakes,
00:20:41and get the fuck out before you get locked up.
00:20:44What can they even arrest me for?
00:20:46Let's see, vandalism, insubordination,
00:20:50and that sweater is definitely a crime against fashion.
00:20:53Don't you know that I can end your entire fashion career with one phone call to my mother?
00:20:57Then go ahead.
00:20:59Do it.
00:21:00If Vanessa calls Anya, she'll find out that Dani's the real star designer.
00:21:08Vanessa, your mom's in recovery.
00:21:11Shouldn't you go to the fashion council first instead?
00:21:14To make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Dani's terrible taste?
00:21:18Brynn's right.
00:21:18You should go right to the source.
00:21:20Do not let her get away with this.
00:21:22I have all my mother's industry contacts at my fingertips.
00:21:27I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:29Dani Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter.
00:21:33Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:38No other fashion house will want you now.
00:21:40Good luck getting a part-time job at Forever 21.
00:21:43Guess that's that then.
00:21:45But before I go, I have one question for you, Vanessa.
00:21:49Does Anya, the CEO and creator of this fashion house, know that you fired me?
00:21:54What kind of idiot do you think I am, Dani?
00:21:58My mother practically begged me to fire your incompetent ass.
00:22:01You thought you could roll up here in your bargain bin sweater and call yourself a fashion icon?
00:22:08Your career is so hopeful.
00:22:09Hey, security, can you take her away and throw her to something?
00:22:13Jail cell, police, whatever.
00:22:16Get your hands off of her.
00:22:19That is my new creative director.
00:22:24Dani Maxwell will join Claude St. John's fashion house.
00:22:28Claude St. John of St. John Couture?
00:22:31You came all the way from New York for me?
00:22:33Of course.
00:22:35I flew straight here.
00:22:39Nice to see you again, Dani.
00:22:41I haven't seen you since I interned at Valentino my freshman year.
00:22:44Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:49How'd you get that job, Dani?
00:22:51You scam your way into that one too?
00:22:54God, Dani, we went out and I had no idea that you were such a grifter.
00:22:59I feel so, so used.
00:23:04So this is how Anya Winter treats their most talented designers.
00:23:07You know, I can't say I'm surprised with someone like you working here.
00:23:10Claude, I...
00:23:11That is Mr. St. John to you.
00:23:12And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:16Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:18You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:21Mr. St. John, Dani here has done irreparable damage and...
00:23:25Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:27Obviously I.
00:23:27I'm right, I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:29Enough!
00:23:31This idiot destroyed my mother's collection,
00:23:34wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio, ruined the entire couture show,
00:23:38almost lost us millions.
00:23:40And why are we still talking about her?
00:23:42Did you not ask your mother who Dani was before you fired her?
00:23:45What kind of idiot do you think I am?
00:23:51My mother runs this fashion house with an iron fist.
00:23:55Of course, I consulted her and you know what she said?
00:23:58She said that this idiot Dani is a Nepo baby intern who scammed her way into the job.
00:24:04Brain dead.
00:24:06Anya actually said this.
00:24:07And a useless disaster.
00:24:09She quite literally said to me, do me a favor and fire this bitch.
00:24:13Anya practically begged me to work for her.
00:24:16She wouldn't walk back on a decision like that.
00:24:18Okay, we all know Anya, okay?
00:24:20And she wouldn't beg anyone for anything.
00:24:23Especially to work with a deadweight intern.
00:24:26Then why are you still here?
00:24:28What, you little...
00:24:29Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:31Dani, will you come with me and be my new creative director of Saint John Couture?
00:24:36God, I don't know.
00:24:37Hey, whatever you are making, I will double it.
00:24:39Okay, her salary is 500k. She's literally robbing us blind.
00:24:45A millionaire, is that?
00:24:49Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:51Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top 10.
00:24:54Are you clinically insane?
00:24:57You're an even bigger bullshitter than Dani.
00:25:00A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:04Way to dig your own grave.
00:25:06I thought I told you to shut up.
00:25:08Claude, I really appreciate what you're trying to do.
00:25:12Seriously, but it's not about the money.
00:25:15Dani, if you join my fashion house, the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:21Creative control over the next season's couture collection will be yours.
00:25:24My designers, my studio, my full trust.
00:25:29And hell, if you want me, I'm even yours too.
00:25:31Oh, Claude.
00:25:35Okay, look, I get it. You hustled from the bottom to build your own fashion brand, and I respect you for that.
00:25:42So let me remind you that Dani is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:46Even my mother says hiring her is a literal death wish.
00:25:50In that case...
00:25:57Okay, okay.
00:25:58What is all this shit?
00:25:59This shit is everything that your mother gave to me.
00:26:02Her one and only key to her personal studio.
00:26:05The business black card in my name, which I could have used to repair the damages, but...
00:26:09I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:12You can tell Anya that I, Dani Maxwell, am more than happy to walk away from this fashion house,
00:26:18and never, ever come back.
00:26:21Aww.
00:26:23So sad for us.
00:26:25Not.
00:26:26You did not deserve any special treatment, Dani.
00:26:29I mean, just look at you.
00:26:31Your complete fashion flop.
00:26:33You know, you are all so wrapped up in beauty standards and bullshit that you can't even see the
00:26:37design talent that is right in front of you.
00:26:41Dani, it is true.
00:26:43We have been struggling to beat out Anya Winter for the number one title spot.
00:26:46Then I'm gonna change that.
00:26:48I'll join as creative director.
00:26:51And by this time, next season's runway show, Saint Jean Couture will be number one.
00:27:00You know, I almost feel embarrassed for you, Dani.
00:27:03Losing your spot at the number one fashion house to go and work for this
00:27:07desperate up-and-comer.
00:27:10Although, who else would hire you?
00:27:13Embarrassed for her.
00:27:15You know Vanessa's gonna burn this place to the ground and you
00:27:18are gonna be left for this PR shitstorm to clean up.
00:27:21And something tells me you're not qualified for that, are you?
00:27:25Qualified?
00:27:25And what exactly are you qualified for?
00:27:28Propositioning idiotic interns to go out and peddle up your hideous designs
00:27:34to some micro-influencers?
00:27:36What?
00:27:41I did.
00:27:44She did.
00:27:47She will.
00:27:47Who is that?
00:27:49That was Soleil's team.
00:27:52They've asked for five sketches from Dani for her Met Gala look.
00:27:55What was that about micro-influencers?
00:27:59If I'm not mistaken, she has more followers than anyone in the world?
00:28:03Absolutely not.
00:28:05Brynn is supposed to design Soleil's gown.
00:28:08Brynn?
00:28:11Guess we got ourselves some competition.
00:28:12This isn't a competition.
00:28:14It's an all-out fashion war.
00:28:16Well, I hope you're ready to die on the battlefield.
00:28:19Let's go, Dani.
00:28:20Gladly.
00:28:21I'm losing brain cells talking to these people.
00:28:25May the best designer win.
00:28:26Don't worry about her, Vanessa.
00:28:30Just send these to Soleil's teams, and there's no way she won't pick us.
00:28:37I'll be Dani with her own designs.
00:28:39Oh my god, Brynn.
00:28:40These are incredible.
00:28:43Between these and the spring couture collection,
00:28:46you've really proven yourself.
00:28:49I'm officially naming you as creative director of Ani Winter Couture.
00:28:54This is a dream come true.
00:28:59And don't forget about me in the face of the menswear line.
00:29:05Right.
00:29:07One step at a time.
00:29:09Stick with me and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:14Every designer will be gunning for our spot as top couture collection in the world.
00:29:19That's why we need to dress Soleil at the Met Gala.
00:29:22And no one can touch us.
00:29:25Not even clawed in that hack of Dani.
00:29:27I won't let you down, Vanessa.
00:29:29Now, walk me through how you designed the couture collection in four hours.
00:29:34How did I do it?
00:29:38Oh god, I can't design for crap.
00:29:40I have no idea how Dani pulled that off.
00:29:43What the hell am I going to tell her?
00:29:44I used a highly specialized sewing technique that I learned in my final year of fashion school.
00:29:53The details are really boring.
00:29:54I could show you later.
00:29:56Of course.
00:29:57You have your own technique.
00:29:58You are the creative genius.
00:30:00I mean, these are already Met Gala worthy.
00:30:02If you can bring them to life half as well as you did the spring collection,
00:30:06you have nothing to worry about.
00:30:07Nothing at all.
00:30:09I am now the creative director of the number one fashion house in the world.
00:30:15Step aside, Dani.
00:30:16I'm the new couture queen.
00:30:17What do you want?
00:30:23Anya, it's Claude Saint-Jean.
00:30:26Listen, I'm just calling to let you know that we are officially in the running to dress
00:30:29a Leia at her Met Gala.
00:30:32What?
00:30:33We are the number one couture house in the world right now.
00:30:37Why would she want you to dress her as if some young, arrogant, dumbass could...
00:30:41Listen, I'm not calling to discuss this.
00:30:43I'm just simply letting you know.
00:30:48Cheers.
00:30:51What the hell is that rat up to?
00:30:54He knows I have a design prodigy at my right hand.
00:30:58Why would he think anybody could beat a superstar like Dani?
00:31:07Unless...
00:31:10Mother, you'll never believe the sketches I got from.
00:31:13Tell me you didn't fire my most talented designer.
00:31:19Calm down, mother, or else you'll have another heart attack.
00:31:22Like I told you already, I fired that brain-dead slacker intern.
00:31:27Why the hell is Claude Saint-Jean competing with us for the Met Gala partnership?
00:31:33Well, I just figured it was pointless to talk him out of it when he's obviously going to crash
00:31:37and burn along with that talentless intern.
00:31:40They'll design something cheap and tacky for Saleya.
00:31:44And then she'll tell everybody she knows not to touch Saint-Jean-Couture with a 10-foot pole.
00:31:50And then their sad little fashion careers.
00:31:53They'll be over it before they even started.
00:31:55So you gaslit Claude into hiring our cast off?
00:32:00Sure did.
00:32:02He's convinced that the talentless Nepo Baby is the creative genius behind our spring line.
00:32:06That's brilliant.
00:32:10And I thought you're a weak little pushover like your father, but...
00:32:14Maybe you're more like me than I knew.
00:32:16Vanessa, I want you to take full control over the Met Gala partnership with Saleya.
00:32:22Oh, thank you.
00:32:24No more talking.
00:32:26It's time to get to work and we need to make damn sure Saleya picks our gown for the gala.
00:32:33We are going to make Claude St. John the laughing stock of the fashion industry.
00:32:41Everyone's buzzing about this Met Gala partnership.
00:32:44Vanessa's never run a fashion house before.
00:32:47Are you sure she can handle this?
00:32:48Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:49My daughter can't fuck this up.
00:32:53Not with Danny Maxwell designing the gown for Saleya.
00:32:57Did I tell you that she actually convinced Claude St. John to hire our strung out sad sack of an intern?
00:33:05I get to sit back and watch Danny work her magic for Saleya's gown while that hack of a talent
00:33:15completely tanks what's left of Claude's fashion house.
00:33:19So, how does our studio compare to the great Anya Winters?
00:33:34It's insane what you've accomplished.
00:33:36I mean, four years ago you were a glorified errand boy at Valentino and now look at you.
00:33:41Your own couture line.
00:33:44It's everything you ever wanted.
00:33:45Not everything.
00:33:49Well, what about you Danny?
00:33:50I mean, when I met you you were a quiet little intern and now you're a fashion genius.
00:33:56I'm serious.
00:33:57I mean, that work you did on that spring collection, it was inspiring.
00:34:07Yes.
00:34:11Of course.
00:34:13You'll be there.
00:34:16So, Leah loved your Met Gala sketches, huh?
00:34:19She told her favorite from you and Brayden she wants you both to show her a sample.
00:34:23Oh my god, when?
00:34:26Tomorrow afternoon.
00:34:27You have 24 hours to make this dress for Saleya.
00:34:30Better get started.
00:34:33I mean, we just got back from New York and I...
00:34:34You created an entire couture collection in what, four hours?
00:34:39This should be a breeze, right?
00:34:40Right.
00:34:41I can totally pull this off.
00:34:43Then do it.
00:34:45Now!
00:34:49You think you can pull off creating a Met Gala gown for a triple A-list celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:53Who do you think you're talking to?
00:34:55Well, whatever it is, it just needs to be better than this.
00:34:58This is our competition.
00:34:59That's my sketch.
00:35:04That fraud friend's been stealing my designs.
00:35:10Of course.
00:35:12She has no real talent of her own.
00:35:17Damn.
00:35:18That dress is insane.
00:35:21A skirt made of stained glass?
00:35:24Insane is right.
00:35:25It's going to be nearly impossible to sell a bodice that can support the weight of the skirt.
00:35:30If Saleya puts on this gown, it's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:35:34Prina wants to be a fashion icon so bad.
00:35:37How will she pull us off?
00:35:39Then it's an easy win, right?
00:35:41We just sit back and let the thieves crash and burn.
00:35:43Not exactly.
00:35:46I'm going to make the same exact dress, only better.
00:35:50Then there'll be no question who the real designer is.
00:35:53But I thought you said it was impossible to pull off.
00:35:57I said nearly impossible.
00:36:03Bryn can try to rip off my designs all she wants.
00:36:07But without the brains or skills to back it up, there's no way she's going to pull it off.
00:36:12And if she tries, that gown is going to fall apart faster than you can say fashion victim.
00:36:21Let's remember this day.
00:36:22The last day that Claude Sejourn Couture will be at the bottom of the fashion food chase.
00:36:29By this time tomorrow, we'll be the new rulers of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:37What the hell is this?
00:36:39Why can't you guys attach the top of the dress to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:44Bryn, the skirt is too heavy.
00:36:46I have no excuses!
00:36:47We have four hours to make a dress for Salaya.
00:36:57Gosh, I wish I was getting trash at a club right now.
00:36:59Bryn!
00:37:01How's everything going?
00:37:02Great!
00:37:03I just dropped my scissors.
00:37:05We're putting on the finishing touches.
00:37:08Phone call.
00:37:10I need an update on the Met Gala.
00:37:12Now!
00:37:13Don't worry, Mother.
00:37:14I have everything under control.
00:37:16That clown Claude and that fraud designer are going down.
00:37:19You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:24Your mother raised an amazing woman.
00:37:28Keep it up.
00:37:30And there might be another promotion in your future.
00:37:32If I can pull this off, I'll go down in fashion history.
00:37:41Who's the brain-dead Nepo baby now?
00:37:45Yeah.
00:37:45That's where I'm going.
00:37:58Denny?
00:37:59Denny?
00:38:01Wake up.
00:38:02Come on.
00:38:06Let's get you to bed.
00:38:08Good morning, superstar.
00:38:38This is it. The gown that can make or break me.
00:38:50You should be proud, Dani. It's exceptional. Just like you.
00:38:57Thanks, I... I could have done it without you.
00:39:08Oh, God. I need to change what I'm wearing to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:12Don't worry about it. I had my editor friend Marco pull some things from the Vogue closet for you.
00:39:20Pick anything you like.
00:39:28See you at the meeting.
00:39:38Gosh, this is a freaking disaster. What am I gonna do?
00:39:43Brynn!
00:39:49That better be the best dress you've ever made.
00:39:52Let's go.
00:39:57Ready to retire early, Claude? We're gonna get that Met Gala partnership.
00:40:02In your dreams, Vanessa.
00:40:03Where's your top secret weapon?
00:40:05She'll be here soon.
00:40:06She'll make a big impression on Saleya.
00:40:09Did she bother to iron out the lumps in today's big baggy sweater?
00:40:13I'm sure the most fashionable woman in the world will absolutely love her Walmart chic style.
00:40:18Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:20Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:26I just have to find a way to switch mine and Danny's garment bags when no one's looking.
00:40:30It's not like Saleya would even trust that unstylish little piece of-
00:40:35Danny, you look stunning.
00:40:47Thanks.
00:40:48Speechless.
00:40:51Is that a first?
00:40:53Are those that-
00:40:55One of a kind Anya Winter Fall Couture books?
00:40:58Yes.
00:40:59I am.
00:41:00Okay, but why would my mother give you those? She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:04They were a gift for designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:08What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:11Look, I always knew you were a lazy, dead beep intern, but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:17That's a whole new low.
00:41:18Taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:21Friend, I knew a thing or two about that.
00:41:24Watch, he gives-
00:41:26Careful now.
00:41:27Do you think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:31This, give me that.
00:41:33This is what the work of a genuine fashion superstar looks like.
00:41:38If Vanessa opens the bag, everyone's gonna see that I'm a total fraud.
00:41:44Soleil, I will see you now.
00:41:47Designers only.
00:41:48For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:53Hey.
00:41:56You've got this.
00:41:57There's no way she's not gonna pick you.
00:42:03Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership.
00:42:06Don't fuck it up.
00:42:08I won't let you down.
00:42:11Soleil is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes.
00:42:14You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:17Just don't touch anything.
00:42:22The dress you made?
00:42:23Is that an original Bryn Maxwell design?
00:42:26Or is it stolen?
00:42:29I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:31You mean you didn't steal my portfolio and pass off my sketches as yours so you could dress the most famous woman in the world for the Met Gala?
00:42:41Tell me Bryn, have you ever actually picked up a sewing needle?
00:42:46That dress you designed is beautiful but very, very complicated.
00:42:55How did you manage to pull that off?
00:42:57We'll just see.
00:42:59Won't we?
00:43:00Yes, we will.
00:43:10Ugh, my gown is hideous.
00:43:12If I don't do something fast, everyone's gonna find out that I'm a total fraud.
00:43:16I've just gotten a taste of fashion fame and I'm not letting Danny that disaster take it from me.
00:43:35Bye-bye, Danny.
00:43:50So Leia's arriving now.
00:43:52No photos, no sucking up, and no touching.
00:43:55Unless she touches you.
00:43:56Got it?
00:43:57Got it.
00:44:06So Leia, this is Bryn Maxwell.
00:44:08It's so nice to meet you.
00:44:10Where's the other one?
00:44:12She must be running a little bit late.
00:44:14I hate people who waste my time.
00:44:16I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:20Let's see it then.
00:44:35Bryn knocked me out and stole my dress.
00:44:42I knew she was a snake but I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:49The sample preview is starting now and I have nothing to show.
00:44:59Or maybe I did.
00:45:01I did.
00:45:04I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:10Sorry, fam.
00:45:12It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:14This is like the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:18I feel connected to it on like a cosmic level.
00:45:21I must wear this dress.
00:45:23I knew you would love it.
00:45:25But what about the other designer?
00:45:26She might...
00:45:27She's late.
00:45:28I'll give her three seconds.
00:45:29If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:32Three...
00:45:33Two...
00:45:34Wait!
00:45:36I'm so sorry.
00:45:37I'm late, Soleil.
00:45:38I had a little...
00:45:40Bump.
00:45:41In the rug.
00:45:43I suppose I can forgive you.
00:45:44Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:48Nice gown, Bryn.
00:45:50I wish I could say the same, Dani, but...
00:45:53Your stinks.
00:45:55Gee.
00:45:56I wonder why that is.
00:45:59This dress is so trippy.
00:46:02My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:06Okay, but you're not like crying.
00:46:07I mean like, mine is still better.
00:46:11Right?
00:46:13I wouldn't say that.
00:46:14What?
00:46:16Isn't that crazy?
00:46:17That you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me and Soleil still likes my design better?
00:46:25How much longer can you keep up this shrink?
00:46:28I must know.
00:46:29What was your inspiration?
00:46:31I was inspired by those times when someone just tries to knock you out and...
00:46:37You get the trash and make a treasure.
00:46:42Like the phoenix rises from the ashes again.
00:46:46Or like a rat from a dumpster.
00:46:48I've always felt spiritually connected to the phoenix.
00:46:52Dani, I feel like you really get me.
00:46:55You're a true artist with a true vision.
00:46:56Okay, well, what about my vision?
00:47:00What about my art?
00:47:02Brynn's right.
00:47:04She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:08Brynn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:17Crap, I have no idea how Dani made this.
00:47:20What do I say?
00:47:22How did I do it?
00:47:23Um...
00:47:25You're not gate-keeping your creative process from Soleil, are you?
00:47:31If you want her to wear your gown at the Met Gala...
00:47:35Doesn't she deserve to know how you made it?
00:47:39It's true. Soleil doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:43It's a simple question, Brynn.
00:47:46If you can't answer it, then like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:49I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:47:56Clearly she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:00Okay, this taped-together thing is not fashion, okay?
00:48:04It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:07Soleil, you cannot wear Dani's dress. I mean, look at it. It's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:48:12Besides, it's made out of New York Street trash.
00:48:17She's right. It does kind of have like a fishy smell to it.
00:48:22Thanksgiving, I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:26Well, obviously this is just a sample. The real dress would not-
00:48:30Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:33I mean, Soleil, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway.
00:48:37But, Dani's?
00:48:39Dani's is probably made out of disease, rat feces, and meat juice.
00:48:46Oh God, you know I'm a die-hard vegan.
00:48:49I've made my decision.
00:48:53The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:48:58Brin's.
00:49:01I can't wear street trash to the Met Gala. It's too big of a risk. Even for me.
00:49:07Oh, I'm sorry Dani.
00:49:09But it's easier to go back to trash when you are trash.
00:49:13But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:19Brin, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:22Like, like, right now?
00:49:24You made this dress in 24 hours. Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:29Once Soleil sees Brin for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:34Yeah. Brin, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do?
00:49:40Now.
00:49:43I really work better alone.
00:49:50Not today you don't. Do you want me to wear your dress to the Met Gala or not?
00:49:54This is it.
00:49:56This is it.
00:49:58The moment everyone sees that I'm a total fraud.
00:50:02The moment my talents were finally re-recognized.
00:50:06Saleya, Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine is here to see you.
00:50:10Oh my God, and she's the chair of the Met Gala board. She must have heard I'm picking my dress today.
00:50:16Maybe they're going to do a feature.
00:50:17Oh my God, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:19Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:26Ms. Summer had to take a call in the car and sent me up instead.
00:50:29I'm her personal assistant. Here to deliver a message.
00:50:34On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders,
00:50:38Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:48Banned? What the hell for?
00:50:50Insubordination, sabotage amounting to millions of dollars in potential losses,
00:50:55a general lack of personal style.
00:51:00Those aren't just faceless lies.
00:51:03I think we all know who the real liar is here, Danny.
00:51:07How dare you come into Saleya's personal studio, waste her precious time knowing you are hated by literally everyone in the fashion industry.
00:51:15Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:18This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:20This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:24Get her out of here.
00:51:25Now.
00:51:30Congratulations.
00:51:32I can't wait to wear your gown to the Met Gala.
00:51:35And I can't wait to steal all of Danny's glory.
00:51:40Hey, Danny, what the hell?
00:51:43Hey, get your hands off of me right now.
00:51:47You okay?
00:51:48Okay, I'd stay back if I were you.
00:51:51Unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life too.
00:51:54Banned? By who?
00:51:56Hannah Summer herself.
00:51:59The editor in chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:04This is the best day of my life.
00:52:07Mine too.
00:52:09Vanessa, I bow to you.
00:52:11Okay.
00:52:13I am the real hero here.
00:52:16I mean, Saleya's wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:19And Danny here is going to go get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:23The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:25I've given everything for this fashion house.
00:52:29And how do you repay me?
00:52:31By turning everyone in the industry against me?
00:52:34Not everyone.
00:52:36Let's go, Danny.
00:52:38I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:51Who believe it? Look at our latest post.
00:52:54Can't wait to reveal my hashtag Met Gala look tomorrow.
00:52:56I'll be giving the designer a very special shout out on stage after my exclusive performance.
00:53:05Like, that's my dress.
00:53:06This should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:09Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this.
00:53:11They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:15They're everything that you're not.
00:53:18You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:21And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:23I know what I have to do.
00:53:27I'm going to sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:32Hell yes you are.
00:53:35I'm sneaking into the Met Gala tomorrow.
00:53:38I have work to do.
00:53:40Let me handle that.
00:53:42Now, let's drink.
00:53:44Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:49Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:53:50Mm-hmm.
00:53:53But it will.
00:53:59You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:02Didn't they used to call you...
00:54:03One Cup Club?
00:54:05Oh.
00:54:07You're tall, but you're quite the length.
00:54:10I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:11And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:17Whoa.
00:54:18You were lightweight.
00:54:19Speak for yourself.
00:54:21Let's get you to bed.
00:54:22It's the worst, the same thing.
00:54:23Seriously.
00:54:24My, my, my.
00:54:25I'm not kidding.
00:54:26Oh.
00:54:27Oh, Lord.
00:54:28Oh, I was...
00:54:29I was...
00:54:30Oh.
00:54:31Oh, Lord.
00:54:32All right.
00:54:33Holy mo.
00:54:34What's up.
00:54:35Oh.
00:54:36Thank you so much.
00:54:37Wow.
00:54:38Wow.
00:54:39Oh, Lord.
00:54:40Oh.
00:54:41That was...
00:54:43Wow.
00:54:44It's the worst...
00:54:46Yeah.
00:54:47Oh, Lord.
00:54:48Oh, I lost.
00:54:50Wow.
00:54:51I suddenly feel very sober.
00:54:58Me too.
00:55:21What do you think?
00:55:25I think the stitching's immaculate.
00:55:28But what's it for?
00:55:30This.
00:55:32Yeah.
00:55:33This is your party crashing uniform.
00:55:36Marco's gonna meet you on the side entrance of the gala.
00:55:40I owe you both my life.
00:55:42I just wanna make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:51I'll meet you there.
00:55:53Where are you going?
00:55:55I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:55:58When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house
00:56:01and sent a fraud to the biggest event in fashion history,
00:56:04it's gonna be over for her and Bryn.
00:56:09For everything.
00:56:14I'll meet you there.
00:56:21Good luck.
00:56:34We're here at fashion's biggest night, the Met Gala,
00:56:38where everyone who is anyone has gathered in New York City to celebrate the best of fashion.
00:56:46Oh my God.
00:56:48Solea!
00:56:49Darling, how are you?
00:56:51Oh my God.
00:56:52I am freaking out right now.
00:56:54I mean, this gown.
00:56:56Anyway, best dress of the night, hands down.
00:57:02Now tell me, who made this incredible creation?
00:57:06I'm actually not revealing who made it yet, but it'll be a big surprise for everyone inside.
00:57:11Quipped it.
00:57:12I love it.
00:57:13Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:17You know, that Bryn collection that you did was just like, whoa, you know?
00:57:24Yeah, I'm kind of like, a genius.
00:57:30Bryn got me banned from the Met Gala, but I made it in.
00:57:40And soon she'll be exposed for the fraud she is.
00:57:43How did that slut get in here?
00:57:45She's going to ruin everything.
00:57:49Champagne, Bryn?
00:57:51You cannot be here.
00:57:53You competed against me to dress Solea, the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala, and you lost.
00:57:59Okay.
00:58:00Tonight is my special night, and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:03I'm the one who designed Solea's dress.
00:58:06I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:08After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown, she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:15Bryn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:19I do not have to answer.
00:58:22Face it, Dani, I have one respect of everyone who matters in the fashion industry.
00:58:27I'm going to be up there, next to Solea on that stage, basking in all your glory.
00:58:33And you, you will still be a no one.
00:58:38You come in here dressed up like a servant expecting me to do what?
00:58:41Fall out your feet and go, oh I'm so sorry Dani, you are so smart and so talented.
00:58:47Never gonna happen.
00:58:49I am rubbing elbows with the hottest, most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:58:55I am wearing the gown of the Met Gala.
00:58:57And you can't touch me now.
00:58:59And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:04Certainly not you if that's what you're implying.
00:59:08Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:15Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:24You think Bryn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:28Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:31Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:34And what have you done to prove yourself?
00:59:36Sneak into the Met Gala dressed as the help?
00:59:38You know the servant suit really fits you Dani.
00:59:43I think you uh, found your true calling.
00:59:46Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
00:59:51You know we dated for two years and I never asked you for a thing.
00:59:56But the minute Vanessa offers you fifteen minutes of fame you drop me without a thought?
01:00:03What will you do once she's used you up and left you in the dust?
01:00:07You have no idea what you're talking about.
01:00:13Yeah.
01:00:15Jealousy is a disease Dani.
01:00:18Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:23You literally got banned for being a talentless scammer.
01:00:27Are you really so desperate to steal my glory that you'd crash the biggest night in fashion?
01:00:33You must be psychotic.
01:00:35Really?
01:00:36And what's the word for stealing another designer's work and using it for clout?
01:00:47Claude.
01:00:48Did you come here to fall at my feet and beg me for a job now that my fashion house officially has the Met Gala partnership and yours?
01:01:01Yours is dead in the water.
01:01:04I'll bet you regret hiring that sneaky little weasel now don't you?
01:01:08Not as much as you're going to regret putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:11Excuse me?
01:01:13Look.
01:01:17I know you and I haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:01:21Hmm.
01:01:23But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:27There's something you should see.
01:01:33Bitch!
01:01:34My star designer worked her fingers to the bone to make that dress for Salaya.
01:01:38Don't you dare try to take credit for her creative genius.
01:01:45Hmm. Very soft.
01:01:46But if she worked her fingers to the bone then wear the count says.
01:01:50Ugh!
01:01:51How dare you assault me.
01:01:53Leave. Now.
01:01:55Or what?
01:01:56So entitled.
01:01:58You know you should be grateful to my mother for even allowing you to step foot into her historic couture house.
01:02:05I never said I wasn't.
01:02:07Your mother is one of the best designers in the world and she took a chance on me.
01:02:12I've always been grateful to her.
01:02:14Grateful?
01:02:16You've tarnished her name and reputation and now you're trying to sabotage the biggest night in the history of this fashion house.
01:02:22Just like you tried to sabotage a spring couture show!
01:02:23I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:32Enough!
01:02:40God. You are so embarrassing Danny.
01:02:44You know breaking up with you was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:48You did me the favor. Really.
01:02:49Really.
01:02:50Thank you so much for saving me from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:02:55Disappointment?
01:02:57If we're talking disappointment I think it's you cause you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:04Oh my god. Is there security around here?
01:03:08This disturbed employee is trying to ruin my couture!
01:03:10And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:13So Leia is about to announce Brynn as the designer of her gown and you will not ruin this moment.
01:03:20Get your hands off of her.
01:03:26Vanessa what the hell have you done with my fashion house?
01:03:31Nothing mom. I fired Danny just like you asked.
01:03:40You what?
01:03:41I don't understand. Is it a mistake?
01:03:45A mistake?
01:03:46A mistake?
01:03:47A mistake?
01:03:48I...
01:03:49Oh my god mom are you okay?
01:03:50I...
01:03:51I...
01:03:52I...
01:03:53I...
01:03:54I...
01:03:55I...
01:03:56I...
01:03:57I just need a minute.
01:03:58Okay.
01:03:59Anya are you okay?
01:04:00Oh Danny.
01:04:01I'm fine.
01:04:02I...
01:04:03There's something I need to say.
01:04:04I can't let that old slut blow my cover.
01:04:05No.
01:04:06She shouldn't speak.
01:04:07She could have another heart attack.
01:04:08Security.
01:04:09Get her out of here.
01:04:10I'm okay.
01:04:11I'm fine.
01:04:12I'm fine.
01:04:13Don't touch her.
01:04:14You're making it worse.
01:04:15Don't listen to anything this worthless server has to say.
01:04:16Take my mother somewhere.
01:04:17Quiet.
01:04:18I'm fine.
01:04:19I'll be right there.
01:04:20I'm fine.
01:04:21I'm fine.
01:04:22I'm fine.
01:04:23I'm fine.
01:04:24I'm fine.
01:04:25I'm fine.
01:04:26I'm fine.
01:04:27I'm fine.
01:04:28I'm fine.
01:04:29I'm fine.
01:04:30I'm fine.
01:04:31I'm fine.
01:04:32I'm fine.
01:04:33I'm fine.
01:04:34I'm fine.
01:04:35Danny!
01:04:36Hey, I said hands off.
01:04:38Unless you want to be cut it off, please.
01:04:41What the hell was that about?
01:04:47I know you've all been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the designer I've chosen to partner
01:04:51with.
01:04:54Bryn Maxwell, will you join me on stage?
01:04:58Oh my god.
01:05:00She had a wardrobe malfunction.
01:05:03Brick!
01:05:04Fuck for me.
01:05:05Come on.
01:05:06What the fuck happened?
01:05:07I told you not to fuck it off.
01:05:08I don't know.
01:05:09I...
01:05:10I...
01:05:11I...
01:05:12What are you looking at me for?
01:05:13You're the designer of my dress.
01:05:16She wants to be a star designer, so let's see if she has the skills to throw it off.
01:05:20Someone needs to fix this!
01:05:23Now!
01:05:24Danny, Danny, if that dress splits anymore, this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:29I know you can do it.
01:05:31So, please, can you go ahead and fix the dress?
01:05:34Uh, uh, why would I be able to help?
01:05:37I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:40Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:44No.
01:05:45Danny is a Nepo baby intern who knows nothing.
01:05:48And Bryn is the creative genius.
01:05:51Remember?
01:05:52Yes.
01:05:53Right?
01:05:54Right.
01:05:55I...
01:05:56I totally know what I'm doing.
01:05:58Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress up.
01:06:02Mm-hmm.
01:06:07Thanks, Danny.
01:06:08I knew you were useless.
01:06:09Thank God brings here.
01:06:11I can do this.
01:06:13How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:19I put my heart and soul into a dress, so I will be proud to wear to that gala.
01:06:24And you built your couture house from the ground up and made so many sacrifices to hire me.
01:06:29I can't let Bryn ruin it all.
01:06:33I have to show Solea what I can do.
01:06:36So go show them who you are.
01:06:39Prove to Solea that you are the genius behind that dress.
01:06:48Bryn, the seams are delicate.
01:06:50The stitch has to be...
01:06:51Shut up!
01:06:52You're ruining her concentration.
01:06:54Um, were you the girl who was, like, banned from the Met Gala for life?
01:06:58Yeah, she is.
01:06:59She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:01I shouldn't be here?
01:07:03Look at the way Bryn's holding that needle.
01:07:05How much longer can you keep up...
01:07:07Just step aside and let me...
01:07:08Ugh!
01:07:12Okay, somebody has to call Hannah Summer.
01:07:14The chair of the gala will know how to handle this dirty little party crasher.
01:07:17What now?
01:07:18We have a security situation.
01:07:19Party crasher on the gala floor.
01:07:20Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:21Danny?
01:07:22Anya's star designer?
01:07:23I'm fine.
01:07:24I am not some delicate little flower.
01:07:25I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:28Hannah, darling.
01:07:29Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the gala.
01:07:35Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:07:36What?
01:07:37I said I've got it.
01:07:38Fine.
01:07:39That's the way you want it to be.
01:07:40See?
01:07:41As a true genius, it's not a lobotomy.
01:07:42Not a lobotomy.
01:07:43Hannah, darling.
01:07:46Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the gala.
01:07:53Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:07:55What?
01:07:56I said I've got it.
01:07:59Fine.
01:08:00If that's the way you want it to be.
01:08:03See?
01:08:08As a true genius behind this dress, I think it's as good as new.
01:08:15Shout out to my hella talented designer Brynn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture for dressing
01:08:20me tonight.
01:08:21Thanks to her, I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:25All of my hard work ruined by Brynn's ego.
01:08:42You know it takes a profound lack of talents to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:08:50Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair gown was that?
01:08:56That girl is so not worthy of dressing Solea.
01:08:59Yes I am!
01:09:01I'm suing Anya Winters for all your brand is worth!
01:09:04This is all your fault!
01:09:06My fault?
01:09:07I was trying to help!
01:09:09I was trying to take your mom's little washed up brand and make it relevant by dressing the hottest,
01:09:14most famous woman in the world!
01:09:16How dare you call my mother's brand washed up!
01:09:19You're gonna pay for that!
01:09:20How?
01:09:21Are you gonna fire me like you fire Danny?
01:09:24When all those loser designers got let go, I replaced the staff with my own people.
01:09:30If I go, they go.
01:09:32How will Anya Winters keep its title as number one couture house without a design staff?
01:09:39You won't keep your spot as number one, as long as you have a fraud like Brynn as your creative director either.
01:09:47Dude, that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:09:50I'm calling my lawyers.
01:09:52Brynn, this is all your fault!
01:09:55Okay!
01:09:56If you guys all want someone to blame for this, why did you blame Danny?
01:09:59Okay!
01:10:00I didn't even make that stupid dress!
01:10:01She did!
01:10:07I didn't...
01:10:08I didn't...
01:10:09I didn't mean...
01:10:10I think it's finally time to show them who you really are.
01:10:14Brynn's right.
01:10:15I designed the dress.
01:10:18And...
01:10:19I'll prove it.
01:10:25So, Leia, will you meet me on stage?
01:10:30Don't!
01:10:32You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch.
01:10:35I mean, look at her!
01:10:36She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:38Image means nothing without substance.
01:10:41Without talent.
01:10:43A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:46Damn.
01:10:47That's deep.
01:10:49I agree.
01:10:50I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:10:53are you seeing?
01:10:54Fine.
01:10:55Uhm, I wanted you todo her last call.
01:11:13Danny Maxwell!
01:11:14You're a genius!
01:11:16I never have seen something stretches out.
01:11:21so stunning. I need her to dress me like that. Wait, this means that I fumbled a super talented
01:11:27baddie? Oh, fuck. It's everything I've ever wanted. You saved this night. Holy cow. This
01:11:40is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen. You're a visionary. And this time, everyone
01:11:47knows it. So, Leia, who are you wearing? I'm wearing... Danny Maxwell. For Corset Jean Couture.
01:12:00It can't be. Danny's the superstar designer that I've owned. This is what I've been trying
01:12:06to tell you. Danny is a fashion icon. Ew. You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's
01:12:15tour brand. You were the brain-dead nepo baby idiot she warned me about. What is that strung
01:12:22out deadbeat intern doing at the fucking Met Gala? I thought you fired her. I didn't fire
01:12:30her. I actually promoted her to creative director. You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my
01:12:38star designer. Yeah, I did. Do you know how hard I've worked? Do you know how much money
01:12:47I spent to get Danny Maxwell in my fashion house? She is the lifeblood of this brand. And
01:12:56what did you do? You fired her? So, is that Maxwell along? Vanessa, you're fired.
01:13:07No, Mom. Please. Please. You can't. I need this. I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter.
01:13:13When I turned this over to you, my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture.
01:13:18And now look at it. It's a laughingstock. You. You did this. Mom, I'm really sorry. Shit,
01:13:28I fucked up. I fucked up so bad. Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala. And she personally
01:13:39banned Danny. You would not want to bash an outcast on your team now, would you? You have
01:13:45some nerve telling me what I did or didn't do. You duped us all into thinking you're a fashion
01:13:54icon when you're nothing more than a dirty scammer in a designer dress.
01:14:02Danny Maxwell is officially granted a lifetime invitation to the Met Gala. But you are banned
01:14:11forever. And you're fired, too. Security. No. Take her away. No. Please. Hand her over
01:14:18to the cops. She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion. No. Please. Ah.
01:14:26Danny, please come back to work for me. You know how much I have done for you. My fashion
01:14:34house can't survive without you. I am begging you.
01:14:39Everything you gave me, I gave it all back when your daughter accused me of sabotaging
01:14:43a thing I put my heart and soul into creating.
01:14:46No. She's exaggerating. That's not what happened. It was Brynn. She was scheming to try to steal
01:14:51Danny's job the whole time. That bitch duped me and got me all confused.
01:14:56Seriously? Well, that confusion almost cost me my whole fashion career and everything I've
01:15:02worked for. Did it feel good making me take the fall for your stupid mistakes? Danny, I'm so sorry.
01:15:11I'm sorry, too. I'm not coming back to Anya Winter Couture. I'm staying where I know I'm appreciated.
01:15:19Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style. So please, step aside.
01:15:26And we at Claude St. Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best, Anya.
01:15:46You ruined it. You have ruined everything I've built.
01:15:52Wow. Really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:00Yes. Sorry, are you crying?
01:16:04God, you're hot. Have you ever wanted to be the face of a menswear line?
01:16:09Hell yeah.
01:16:13You better not show up at the office tomorrow. I never should have hired you.
01:16:17Oh, no. I need a job. Vanessa. Vanessa.
01:16:26I'm too hot to be on these streets.
01:16:34Call me. Danny, why did I ever reach you?
01:16:39We have to take some red carpet picks together. I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who made my dress team.
01:16:46Give me five minutes.
01:17:03I knew you'd take back your crown. Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:07I always have. And I always will.
01:17:15Congratulations. You made it to the top.
01:17:28And that's where I'll stay.
01:17:45I know your girl.
01:17:49I'm still in store.
01:17:55New, I'm still in store.
01:17:57All right.
01:17:58Then we are at the top.
01:17:59And that's how I want you to burst.
01:18:01So you may have to work until you're in store.
01:18:02I thought you'll know what I want to be in store and read with my faded feet in where you're at roars Mehrzad romantic either.
01:18:06I get it that bottle.
01:18:08All right.
01:18:09And that's how we meet your lady.
01:18:10AnySI many people with our aunts?
