00:00:01I can't find a delivery anywhere.
00:00:03The entire Anya Winter-Spring collection
00:00:05is missing hours before the Paris runway show.
00:00:07I can get the courier on the phone.
00:00:09This is a nightmare!
00:00:10Bad news.
00:00:11The delivery truck lost control.
00:00:1530 couture gowns destroyed.
00:00:17We're going to have to cancel the show.
00:00:18No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:00:20This is Anya's biggest collection ever, OK?
00:00:23She worked on it for years.
00:00:25And if she comes back and we have nothing to show,
00:00:27we're all dead.
00:00:29What other designer besides Anya
00:00:31can make an entire couture collection in just hours?
00:00:35Don't worry, guys.
00:00:37I can handle it.
00:00:39Didn't she graduate college, like, yesterday?
00:00:41She deaf looks like she just pulled an all-nighter in a library.
00:00:44There's no way some intern who grabs coffee
00:00:46and schedules Anya's lunches
00:00:47can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:49Guys, there's no time to argue.
00:00:51The show is in five hours.
00:00:53What are we going to do?
00:00:55Give me that.
00:00:59And this.
00:01:07What is she doing?
00:01:12She's not even using a pattern.
00:01:13I've never seen someone beat so quickly.
00:01:15Invisible stitching.
00:01:17It's immaculate.
00:01:19There you have it.
00:01:21A gown fit for the Anya winter spring couture collection.
00:01:26This is impossible.
00:01:31I thought you were just some delusional intern, but this dress.
00:01:36Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:40This is going to launch a million dupes, but none of them are going to come close to the real thing.
00:01:45I heard Anya have recently hired a fashion school prodigy who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:51Is that you?
00:01:53Oh, no, it still isn't right.
00:01:55No, it still isn't right.
00:02:04Um, Miss Winter, I'm here to...
00:02:07I'm here for the fall internship.
00:02:09It's Anya.
00:02:11Why 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?
00:02:20May I?
00:02:21Sure.
00:02:22I'm so sorry that I brushed the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:30Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:34Not everybody knows that.
00:02:36An entire team of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:43Forget about the internship.
00:02:45You are going to be my head designer.
00:02:48There's no time to explain.
00:02:50We need 29 more gowns to make before the show.
00:02:53It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:54Where are we going to find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:02:57Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:02:58And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:02And rip the fringe of the carpet.
00:03:04And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:06And I need flowers.
00:03:07Stat.
00:03:10But we're going to destroy this place.
00:03:12Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:15Anya will understand.
00:03:20Holy cow.
00:03:27This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
00:03:30You're a visionary.
00:03:31Now let's kill this fashion show.
00:03:33I'm speechless.
00:03:48I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:50This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:52Dior who?
00:03:53Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:56You all head back to the studio.
00:04:08I'll grab some champagne and celebrate.
00:04:10Oh my god!
00:04:11I can't believe Danny completed this entire collection overnight.
00:04:15Where did she even come from?
00:04:17No clue.
00:04:18But her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:25What the hell is going on here?
00:04:27This is disgusting.
00:04:28Is this a design studio or the girls' bathroom of a club?
00:04:33We make groundbreaking pieces with our hands, not our big fat mouths.
00:04:37Jordan, who is this woman?
00:04:38Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:40PR?
00:04:41This woman is the daughter of Anya Winters.
00:04:44Vanessa got her degree from Central Saint Martins in London and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:51And she'll be acting as CEO while Anya recovers from a minor heart attack.
00:04:57Is this really the design team that created the top couture collection in all of Paris Fashion Week?
00:05:03Because all I'm seeing is a bunch of incompetent yappers.
00:05:06If this is about the original collection...
00:05:08I didn't ask you to speak.
00:05:11You're fired.
00:05:12Pack up your bags and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:18Anya Winters is now the top couture collection in the entire world.
00:05:22Time to separate the fashion icons from the frogs.
00:05:26You think my mother is a hard ass?
00:05:28Just you wait.
00:05:29I expect only the most original, exciting sketches, lightning-fast designs, and perfect technicality.
00:05:37And no unnecessary distractions.
00:05:40Who does she think she is?
00:05:42Miranda Priestly?
00:05:43Oh, my God.
00:05:49What is this?
00:05:50Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:56No!
00:05:58That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:04Well, you should have done a better job reinforcing your steam.
00:06:07Jordan, be a doll and go get her a souvenir Eiffel Tower keychain as a thank you for her hard work.
00:06:14Oh, yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:21Okay!
00:06:22Now, please, can somebody show me something?
00:06:25A collection!
00:06:27Congratulations!
00:06:31Who are you?
00:06:32You.
00:06:33You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:37You're fired.
00:06:38Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:41Danny Maxwell.
00:06:43Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:47Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:50She's an intern?
00:06:51Mmm.
00:06:52So what?
00:06:53You decided that you could take advantage of my mother's showroom to throw a rager the night before the biggest couture show in the history of this house?
00:07:01That's not what we...
00:07:03I would say we could take out the damages from your salary, but you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:09Actually, she's our highest-paid employee.
00:07:11She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:13Jordan!
00:07:14That's...
00:07:15That's confidential.
00:07:16So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:18You know, she might be getting old, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:22And what?
00:07:23This is how you spend the money?
00:07:25No, no.
00:07:26Look, the team was up all night working.
00:07:28Our hands are cramping, we're tired, but...
00:07:30We saved the spring show.
00:07:33Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:36Celebrate?
00:07:38By destroying a studio?
00:07:41Lying?
00:07:42Talking back to your superiors?
00:07:44Drinking on the job?
00:07:46No wonder my mother had a heart attack.
00:07:48Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities.
00:07:53Unless, of course, you're just as useless as she is.
00:07:56Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:00Jordan and I have been dating for two years.
00:08:03He knows how hard I work.
00:08:05But there's no way he's going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:08Danny's my girlfriend.
00:08:09If I take her side, I'll be committing a career suicide.
00:08:12You're right.
00:08:14Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:18Jordan, seriously?
00:08:20What are you still doing here, intern?
00:08:23Pack up your shit and get out of here.
00:08:26If that's how it's going to be.
00:08:27This isn't Danny's fault.
00:08:28She's the one who saved-
00:08:30Oh!
00:08:31Do you want to go with her?
00:08:33If anyone else here helped Danny destroy this studio, please, feel free to speak up now.
00:08:40It's okay, guys.
00:08:41Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now.
00:08:44You've all earned your spots.
00:08:47It was my fault.
00:08:51I'm leaving.
00:08:56How could you?
00:09:01Leave back.
00:09:03Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:07Baby!
00:09:08I'm so sorry.
00:09:11We've been together for two years.
00:09:12You couldn't even defend me?
00:09:13She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:16Look, we both know that I don't have a degree.
00:09:20And it's a miracle that you got me this job.
00:09:23And if I lose it, then who's going to pay for all the expensive champagne that we're
00:09:30going to have at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:33Well, you better spring for caviar, too.
00:09:36You owe me big time, Jordan.
00:09:40I promise I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:44Let's meet tonight at 8, okay?
00:09:47Let's have a magical last night in Paris.
00:09:50I'll see you then.
00:09:57Your frumpy little girlfriend is a recipe for bad press.
00:10:01So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:04Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:06Thanks, not much.
00:10:08You better not be.
00:10:10Hmm.
00:10:11You're hot, you know.
00:10:14My mother wants to start a menswear line.
00:10:16You could be the PR director.
00:10:19What do you prefer?
00:10:20An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:22Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:26Say it.
00:10:29Mommy.
00:10:30What else?
00:10:31What else?
00:10:32What else?
00:10:35Does baby need a change?
00:10:37Baby needs a change.
00:10:38Mm-hmm.
00:10:39Yeah, he does.
00:10:40Stinky.
00:10:41Stinky.
00:10:42Yes, mother.
00:10:44Mm-hmm.
00:10:47Stupid people.
00:10:51They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:57I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:11:01I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:11:05I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:08Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:11I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:15You better treat her right.
00:11:18Maxwell?
00:11:20Oh, God.
00:11:21Is that the frumpy intern I just fired?
00:11:23Hello?
00:11:24I'm speaking to you.
00:11:25Yes, mother.
00:11:26One second.
00:11:27Is there any other Maxwell on the design team?
00:11:31I need to stop this at some point.
00:11:33She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:40A creative genius.
00:11:41I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't
00:11:47get their hands on her.
00:11:48Without her, this whole house will crumble.
00:11:59Don't worry, mother.
00:12:00I'll treat her like a queen.
00:12:02You better.
00:12:04And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:06What 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?
00:12:20Thank God.
00:12:21Of course, that tasteless tornado I fired was just a pointless intern.
00:12:26Don't worry, mother.
00:12:27I already handled it.
00:12:30I'll come check on things the second they discharge me from this hellhole.
00:12:37Rest up.
00:12:38And I'll take care of everything.
00:12:40I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:46What the hell?
00:12:47Where were we?
00:12:53What the hell do you want?
00:12:56The studio phone's been ringing off the hook.
00:12:58Well, who is it?
00:12:59It's Solea's team.
00:13:01Solea?
00:13:02As in the most famous actress in the world?
00:13:04She needs a dress for the Met Gala.
00:13:06She wants to see sketches for five looks inspired by the new collection.
00:13:11In one hour.
00:13:13Oh.
00:13:14Let's hope Maxwell can pull this off.
00:13:19Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:22Jordan, get Brynn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:32What happened?
00:13:33I thought everyone would hate me for causing the crash that destroyed the whole collection.
00:13:41But...
00:13:42Guess they've got bigger problems.
00:13:44Danny, the grumpy dumbass.
00:13:49She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:13:51Oh my gosh, these are iconic!
00:13:53No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:56I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:03I'm definitely getting fired.
00:14:06Where are you?
00:14:07We need five sketches to send to Solea's team for her Met Gala look ASAP.
00:14:11Miss Winter said if you pull this off, you'll be on fast track to becoming creative director.
00:14:17Be right there.
00:14:18Why would they ask me, a brand new intern, to dress the most famous woman in the world?
00:14:25Whatever.
00:14:26I'll use Danny's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:30Oh my gosh.
00:14:31I'm gonna be a star.
00:14:34Well?
00:14:35Brynn's handling it.
00:14:36Nice work.
00:14:37Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, I'm so sick.
00:14:42I know.
00:14:43This partnership will take this brand to a whole new level.
00:14:47And 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 Danny.
00:14:58Unless, of course, you want to go with Danny.
00:15:05Where is Jordan?
00:15:06He's 20 minutes late.
00:15:08I don't want her.
00:15:10I was gonna break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:13I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:17Mmm.
00:15:18Good choice.
00:15:21Guess I'll have to drag him here myself.
00:15:25Gosh, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:28It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:39Ow!
00:15:41Me?
00:15:43She is a fashion superstar, okay?
00:15:45And you're just...
00:15:47An unemployed loser.
00:15:48You spineless dick.
00:15:50You psycho bitch!
00:15:51Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:15:53That's it, you cheating piece of...
00:15:55Danny, Danny, 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?
00:16:06Oh!
00:16:08Know your place, you tacky, talentless slump.
00:16:12Face it, Danny.
00:16:14You're a fool.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for...
00:16:18Upgrading.
00:16:22I love to, Jordan.
00:16:24And the only reason you're here is because of me.
00:16:27Because I told Anya to make you PR magical.
00:16:30Are you kidding me?
00:16:31More ridiculous lies.
00:16:33You?
00:16:34You're a deadbeat intern.
00:16:36As if my mother would have anything to do with you.
00:16:40We...
00:16:42Are...
00:16:43Over...
00:16:45Danny.
00:16:49I'm calling security.
00:16:50Why don't you call your mother instead?
00:16:52The founder of this house.
00:16:54She'll tell you that you're making a huge mistake.
00:16:58You know what, enough with the bullshit, Danny.
00:16:59It's cringe.
00:17:00Is this how you got your job here?
00:17:02By spewing insane lies?
00:17:04Hi, security.
00:17:05Yes, there's a delusional ex-employee who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:12Oh, Danny.
00:17:14Don't be sad.
00:17:15Look, I get it.
00:17:16I'm powerful.
00:17:18Smart.
00:17:20Experienced.
00:17:21And you?
00:17:22Well, you're jobless, talentless, and irrelevant.
00:17:28Look, 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.
00:17:37Fine.
00:17:39I'm done here anyway.
00:17:40I'm done here anyway.
00:17:45And where do you think you're going, Danny?
00:17:47Guards!
00:17:48She's over here.
00:17:52Who the hell are you?
00:17:53I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture collection.
00:17:57Brynn Maxwell.
00:17:59Oh, wow.
00:18:01Well, I can see why my mother sung your praises.
00:18:05Oh, is that an archival saline bag?
00:18:09Well, you obviously have impeccable taste.
00:18:12It's no wonder you created such a groundbreaking collection.
00:18:15These dumbasses don't even know that I'm totally jacking Danny's glory.
00:18:19Who cares?
00:18:20As long as Anya's daughter thinks I'm a genius, I'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.
00:18:36She's obviously trying to sabotage the brand.
00:18:38What?
00:18:46Danny's done it again.
00:18:48You know that one design school prodigy you've had your eye on?
00:18:51Danny Maxwell?
00:18:52She was just fired from Anya Winters' fashion house.
00:18:56The show's a hit. How is that possible?
00:18:57Apparently, Anya's daughter, Vanessa, forced her out.
00:19:00Of course.
00:19:02I would love to see the look on Anya Winters' face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo of a daughter fired her star designer.
00:19:09Call Danny up. Let's get her here.
00:19:11But Anya Winters is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:13We're not even ranked top ten.
00:19:15Dior and Chanel are probably banging down Danny's door already.
00:19:18You really think she would work for us?
00:19:19I'll do anything to get Danny on this team.
00:19:22Rumor has it that Leia's looking for a new designer for her Met Gelo look.
00:19:26And if we can dress the most famous woman on the planet on the biggest night in fashion,
00:19:31we'll be the new brand on top.
00:19:35Get the jet ready. I'm going to Paris.
00:19:36And I'm not leaving without Danny Maxwell.
00:19:43Sabotage? Are you kidding me?
00:19:45You can take the fall from my stupid mistake, Danny.
00:19:48Who will believe you over me?
00:19:50You were out partying all night when you should have been confirming the route with the courier.
00:19:53And you destroyed my mother's studio on your drunken bender.
00:19:56You all see me as some incompetent intern just because I'm not wearing the latest off-the-runway clothes.
00:20:02Maybe daddy's black card can buy you Celine, but can it buy you talent, too?
00:20:06You think I caused that disaster? You think she is your savior?
00:20:12Well, then best of luck when Anya comes back and sees what a mess you've made.
00:20:16This is your mess, Danny Maxwell.
00:20:17I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate yes.
00:20:22Don't touch me.
00:20:24Jordan, don't let them do this.
00:20:26We both know you're not capable of handling the outcome.
00:20:29First you threaten Brynn, and then you threaten me.
00:20:32You know, you shouldn't be such a bitter bitch, Danny.
00:20:36You know, jealousy looks hideous on you.
00:20:39So why don't you go ahead and pick up your mistakes and get the fuck out before you get locked up.
00:20:45What can they even arrest me for?
00:20:47Let's see, vandalism, insubordination, and that sweater is definitely a crime against fashion.
00:20:54Don't you know that I can end your entire fashion career with one phone call to my mother?
00:20:58Then go ahead.
00:21:00Do it.
00:21:04If Vanessa calls Anya, she'll find out that Danny's the real star designer.
00:21:09Vanessa, your mom's in recovery.
00:21:12Shouldn't you go to the fashion council first instead?
00:21:15To make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Danny's terrible taste?
00:21:19Brynn's right. You should go right to the source.
00:21:22Do not let her get away with this.
00:21:24I have all my mother's industry contacts at my fingertips.
00:21:28I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:31Danny Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter.
00:21:35Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:38No other fashion house will want you now.
00:21:41Good luck getting a part-time job at Forever 21.
00:21:44Guess that's that then.
00:21:46But before I go, I have one question for you, Vanessa.
00:21:50Does Anya, the CEO and creator of this fashion house, know that you fired me?
00:21:55Kind of an idiot. Do you think I am, Danny?
00:21:59My mother practically begged me to fire your incompetent ass.
00:22:02You thought you could roll up here in your bargain bin sweater and call yourself a fashion icon?
00:22:07Your career is so hopeful.
00:22:10Hey, uh, security, can you take her away and throw her to something? Jail, cell, police, whatever?
00:22:17Get your hands off of her.
00:22:22That is my new creative director.
00:22:26Danny Maxwell will join Claude St. Jean Fashion House.
00:22:30Claude St. John of St. John Couture?
00:22:33You came all the way from New York for me?
00:22:35Of course. I flew straight here.
00:22:40Nice to see you again, Danny.
00:22:42I haven't seen you since I interned at Valentino my freshman year.
00:22:46Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:51How'd you get that job, Danny?
00:22:53Did you scam your way into that one too?
00:22:55God, Danny.
00:22:57We went out and I had no idea that you were such a grifter.
00:23:01I feel so, so used.
00:23:05So this is how Anya Winter treats their most talented designers.
00:23:08You know, I can't say I'm surprised with someone like you working here.
00:23:12Claude, I...
00:23:13That is Mr. St. Jean to you.
00:23:15And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:18Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:21You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:23Mr. St. John, Danny here has done irreparable damage and...
00:23:27Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:29Obviously I.
00:23:30All right, I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:31Enough!
00:23:33This idiot destroyed my mother's collection, wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio, ruined the entire couture show, almost lost us millions.
00:23:42And why are we still talking about her?
00:23:44Did you not ask your mother who Danny was before you fired her?
00:23:46What kind of idiot do you think I am?
00:23:53My mother runs this fashion house with an iron fist.
00:23:57Of course I consulted her and you know what she said?
00:23:59She said that this idiot Danny is a Nepo baby intern who scammed her way into the job.
00:24:05Brain dead.
00:24:07Anya actually said this.
00:24:08And a useless disaster. She quite literally said to me, do me a favor and fire this bitch.
00:24:15Anya practically begged me to work for her. She wouldn't walk back on a decision like that.
00:24:20Okay, we all know Anya, okay, and she wouldn't beg anyone for anything.
00:24:25Especially to work with a deadweight intern.
00:24:28Then why are you still here?
00:24:30Oh, you little...
00:24:31Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:33Danny, will you come with me and be my new creative director of St. John Couture?
00:24:38God, I don't know.
00:24:39Hey, whatever you are making, I will double it.
00:24:41Okay, her salary is 500k. She's literally robbing us blinds.
00:24:46A millionaire is that?
00:24:51Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:54Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top 10.
00:24:57Are you clinically insane?
00:24:59You're an even bigger bullshitter than Danny.
00:25:02A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:05Way to dig your own grave.
00:25:08I thought I told you to shut up.
00:25:11Claude, I really appreciate what you're trying to do.
00:25:14Seriously, but it's not about the money.
00:25:17Danny, if you join my fashion house, the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:23Creative control over the next season's couture collection will be yours.
00:25:26My designers, my studio, my full trust.
00:25:28And hell, if you want me, I'm even yours too.
00:25:35Oh, Claude.
00:25:37Okay, look, I get it.
00:25:39You hustled from the bottom to build your own fashion brand, and I respect you for that.
00:25:44So let me remind you that Danny is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:48Even my mother says hiring her is a literal death wish.
00:25:52In that case...
00:25:58Okay.
00:26:00What is all this shit?
00:26:01This shit is everything that your mother gifted me.
00:26:04Her one and only key to her personal studio, the business black card in my name, which I could have used to repair the damages, but I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:12You can tell Anya that I, Danny Maxwell, am more than happy to walk away from this fashion house and never, ever come back.
00:26:24Aww.
00:26:26So sad for us.
00:26:28Not.
00:26:30You did not deserve any special treatment, Danny.
00:26:32I mean, just look at you.
00:26:34Your complete fashion flop.
00:26:36You know, you are all so wrapped up in beauty standards and bullshit that you can't even see the design talent that is right in front of you.
00:26:44Danny, it is true.
00:26:46We have been struggling to beat out Anya Winter for the number one title spot.
00:26:49Then I'm gonna change that.
00:26:51I'll join as creative director.
00:26:53And by this time, next season's runway show, Saint Jean Couture will be number one.
00:26:59You know, I almost feel embarrassed for you, Danny.
00:27:05Losing your spot at the number one fashion house to go and work for this desperate up-and-comer.
00:27:12Although, who else would hire you?
00:27:16Embarrassed for her.
00:27:18You know Vanessa's gonna burn this place to the ground, and you are gonna be left for this PR shitstorm to clean up.
00:27:23And something tells me you're not qualified for that, are you?
00:27:28Qualified? And what exactly are you qualified for?
00:27:31Propositioning idiotic interns to go out and peddle up your hideous designs to some micro-influencers?
00:27:39What?
00:27:44I did.
00:27:47She did.
00:27:50She will.
00:27:51Who is that?
00:27:53That. The Solea's team.
00:27:55They've asked for five sketches from Danny for her Met Gala look.
00:27:58What was that about micro-influencers?
00:28:01If I'm not mistaken, she has more followers than anyone in the world?
00:28:07Absolutely not. Brynn is supposed to design Solea's gown.
00:28:11Brynn?
00:28:13Guess we got ourselves some competition.
00:28:16This isn't a competition. It's an all-out fashion war.
00:28:18Well, I hope you're ready to die on the battlefield.
00:28:21Let's go, Danny.
00:28:22Gladly. I'm losing brain cells talking to these people.
00:28:26May the best designer win.
00:28:28Don't worry about her, Vanessa. Just send these to Solea's teams, and there's no way she won't pick us.
00:28:38I'll be Danny with her own designs.
00:28:41Oh, my God, Brynn. These are incredible.
00:28:45Between these and the Spring Couture Collection, you've really proven yourself.
00:28:51I'm officially naming you as Creative Director of Ani Winter Couture.
00:28:57This is a dream come true.
00:29:00Mm-hmm.
00:29:02And don't forget about me in the face of the menswear line.
00:29:07Mm-hmm.
00:29:09Great. One step at a time.
00:29:12Stick with me, and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:16Every designer will be gunning for our spot as top couture collection in the world.
00:29:22That's why we need to dress Solea at the Met Gala.
00:29:25And no one can touch us.
00:29:27Not even Claude and that hack Danny.
00:29:30I won't let you down, Vanessa.
00:29:32Now, walk me through how you designed the couture collection in four hours.
00:29:37How did I do it?
00:29:38Oh, God. I can't design for crap.
00:29:43I have no idea how Danny pulled that off.
00:29:46What the hell am I going to tell her?
00:29:49I used a highly specialized sewing technique that I learned in my final year of fashion school.
00:29:56The details are really boring. I could show you later.
00:29:59Of course. You have your own technique. You are the creative genius.
00:30:03I mean, these are already Met Gala worthy.
00:30:05If you can bring them to life half as well as you did the spring collection, you have nothing to worry about.
00:30:11Nothing at all.
00:30:13I am now the creative director of the number one fashion house in the world.
00:30:18Step aside, Danny. I'm the new couture queen now.
00:30:24What do you want?
00:30:27Anya, it's Claude Saint-Jean.
00:30:29Listen, I'm just calling to let you know that we are officially in the running to dress Solea at her Met Gala.
00:30:33What? We are the number one couture house in the world right now.
00:30:40Why would she want you to dress her as if some young, arrogant, dumbass could...
00:30:44Listen, I'm not calling to discuss this. I'm just simply letting you know.
00:30:50Cheers.
00:30:51What the hell is that rat up to? He knows I have a design prodigy at my right hand.
00:31:02Why would he think anybody could beat a superstar like Danny?
00:31:06Danny.
00:31:10Unless...
00:31:14Mother, you'll never believe the sketches I got from.
00:31:17Tell me you didn't fire my most talented designer!
00:31:22Calm down, Mother, or else you'll have another heart attack.
00:31:26Like I told you already, I fired that brain-dead slacker intern.
00:31:31Why the hell is Claude Saint-Jean competing with us for the Met Gala partnership?
00:31:36Well, I just figured it was pointless to talk him out of it when he's obviously gonna crash and burn along with that talentless intern.
00:31:43They'll design something cheap and tacky for Saleya.
00:31:47And then she'll tell everybody she knows not to touch Saint-Jean couture with a ten-foot pole.
00:31:53And then their sad little fashion careers, they'll be over it before they even started.
00:31:59So you gaslit Claude into hiring our cast-off?
00:32:04Sure did.
00:32:06He's convinced that the talentless Nepo Baby is the creative genius behind our spring line.
00:32:11That's brilliant!
00:32:13And I thought you're a weak little pushover like your father, but...
00:32:18Maybe you're more like me than I knew.
00:32:21Vanessa, I want you to take full control over the Met Gala partnership with Saleya.
00:32:27Oh, thank you!
00:32:29No more talking.
00:32:31It's time to get to work and we need to make damn sure Saleya picks our gown for the Gala.
00:32:37We are going to make Claude Saint-Jean the laughing stock of the fashion industry.
00:32:41Everyone's buzzing about this Met Gala partnership.
00:32:48Vanessa's never run a fashion house before.
00:32:50Are you sure she can handle this?
00:32:52Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:53My daughter can't fuck this up.
00:32:56Not with Danny Maxwell designing the gown for Saleya.
00:33:01Did I tell you that she actually convinced Claude Saint-Jean to hire our strung out sad sack of an intern?
00:33:09I get to sit back and watch Danny work her magic for Saleya's gown while that hack of a talent completely tanks what's left of Claude's fashion house.
00:33:23Yes.
00:33:31So, how does our studio compare to the great Anya Winters?
00:33:35It's insane what you've accomplished.
00:33:40I mean, four years ago you were a glorified errand boy at Valentino and now look at you.
00:33:45Your own couture line.
00:33:47It's everything you ever wanted.
00:33:50Not everything.
00:33:51Well, what about you Danny?
00:33:54I mean, when I met you you were a quiet little intern and now you're a fashion genius.
00:33:59I'm serious.
00:34:00I mean, that work you did on that spring collection, it was...
00:34:04It was inspiring.
00:34:11Yes.
00:34:12Of course.
00:34:16We'll be there.
00:34:20So Leah loved your Mechala sketches, huh?
00:34:22She chose her favorite from you and Brayden and she wants you both to show her a sample.
00:34:26Oh my god, when?
00:34:30Tomorrow afternoon?
00:34:32You have 24 hours to make this dress for Saleya.
00:34:34Better get started.
00:34:37I mean, we just got back from New York and I...
00:34:38You created an entire couture collection in what?
00:34:42Four hours?
00:34:44This should be a breeze, right?
00:34:45Right.
00:34:46I can totally pull this off.
00:34:48Then do it.
00:34:49Now!
00:34:53You think you can pull off creating a Mechala gown for a triple A-list celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:57Who do you think you're talking to?
00:34:59Well, whatever it is.
00:35:01It just needs to be better than this.
00:35:03This is our competition.
00:35:05That's my sketch.
00:35:08That Fraud Brin's been stealing my designs.
00:35:14Of course.
00:35:16She has no real talent of her own.
00:35:21Damn.
00:35:23That dress is insane.
00:35:25A skirt made of stained glass?
00:35:28Insane is right.
00:35:30It's gonna be nearly impossible to sew a bodice I could support the weight of the skirt.
00:35:33If Soleil puts on this gown, it's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:35:38Brin wants to be a fashion icon so bad.
00:35:41How will she pull this off?
00:35:43Then it's an easy win, right?
00:35:45We just sit back and let the thieves crash and burn.
00:35:48Not exactly.
00:35:50I'm gonna make the same exact dress, only better.
00:35:53Then there'll be no question who the real designer is.
00:35:57But I thought you said it was impossible to pull off.
00:36:00I said nearly impossible.
00:36:03Brin can try to rip off my designs all she wants.
00:36:11But without the brains or skills to back it up, there's no way she's gonna pull it off.
00:36:16And if she tries, that gown is gonna fall apart faster than you can say fashion victim.
00:36:21Let's remember this day, the last day that Claude Saison Couture will be at the bottom of the fashion food chase.
00:36:32By this time tomorrow, we'll be the new rulers of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:42What the hell is this?
00:36:44Why can't you guys attach the top of the dress to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:47Oh, my God.
00:36:48Brynn, the skirt is too heavy.
00:36:50I have no excuses!
00:36:52We have four hours to make a dress for Salaya.
00:37:01Gosh, I wish I was getting trash at a club right now.
00:37:04Brynn!
00:37:06How's everything going?
00:37:07Great!
00:37:08I just dropped my scissors.
00:37:10We're putting on the finishing touches.
00:37:13Phone call.
00:37:15I need an update on the Met Gala.
00:37:17Now!
00:37:18Hey, Mother.
00:37:19I have everything under control.
00:37:21That clown, Claude, and that fraud designer are going down.
00:37:26You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:28Your mother raised an amazing woman.
00:37:33Keep it up.
00:37:35There might be another promotion in your future.
00:37:37If I can pull this off, I'll go down in fashion history.
00:37:45Who's the brain-dead Nepo baby now?
00:37:47Danny.
00:37:48Danny.
00:37:49Danny.
00:37:50Look up.
00:37:51Come on.
00:37:53Let's get you to bed.
00:37:55Danny.
00:37:56Danny.
00:37:57Danny.
00:37:58Danny.
00:37:59Wake up.
00:38:00Come on.
00:38:01Come on.
00:38:02Let's get you to bed.
00:38:04Danny.
00:38:05Danny.
00:38:06Danny.
00:38:07Wake up.
00:38:08Come on.
00:38:10Let's get you to bed.
00:38:11Good morning, superstar.
00:38:12Mm-hmm.
00:38:13Good morning, superstar.
00:38:15Mm-hmm.
00:38:16Good morning, superstar.
00:38:17This is it.
00:38:34The Gamba can make or break me.
00:38:36You're welcome, Daddy.
00:38:39He's following what can do about the results we need.
00:38:44The gown that can make or break me.
00:38:54You should be proud, Dani.
00:38:57It's exceptional.
00:38:59Just like you.
00:39:01Thanks, I...
00:39:05I couldn't have done it without you.
00:39:12Oh, God.
00:39:14I need to change what I'm wearing to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:17Don't worry about it.
00:39:19I had my editor friend Marco pull some things from the Vogue closet for you.
00:39:24Pick anything you like.
00:39:32See you at the meeting.
00:39:33Thanks to me.
00:39:42Gosh, this is a freaking disaster.
00:39:45What am I going to do?
00:39:47Brynn!
00:39:48That better be the best dress you've ever made.
00:39:56Let's go.
00:39:57Let's go.
00:40:02Ready to retire early, Claude?
00:40:04We're going to get that Met Gala partnership.
00:40:06In your dreams, Vanessa.
00:40:08Where's your top secret weapon?
00:40:10She'll be here soon.
00:40:11She'll make a big impression on Saleya.
00:40:14Did she bother to iron out the lumps in today's big baggy sweater?
00:40:18I'm sure the most fashionable woman in the world will absolutely love her Walmart chic style.
00:40:23Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:25Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:29I just have to find a way to switch mine and Danny's garment bags when no one's looking.
00:40:35It's not like Saleya would even trust that unstylish little piece of-
00:40:48Danny.
00:40:51You look stunning.
00:40:52Thanks.
00:40:56Speechless.
00:40:57Is that a first?
00:40:59Are those that-
00:41:00One of a kind Anya winter fall couture books?
00:41:03Yes.
00:41:04I am.
00:41:06Okay, but why would my mother give you those?
00:41:08She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:09They were a gift for designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:13What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:16Look, I always knew you were a lazy, deadbeat intern, but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:22That's a whole new loan.
00:41:24Taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:26Friend.
00:41:27I know a thing or two about that.
00:41:30Watch, he is-
00:41:31Careful now.
00:41:32You think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:36This-
00:41:37Give me that.
00:41:38This is what the work of a genuine fashion superstar looks like.
00:41:43If Vanessa opens the bag, everyone's gonna see that I'm a total fraud.
00:41:47Theorah.
00:41:50Caleya will see you now.
00:41:52Designers only.
00:41:53For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:58Hey.
00:42:01You've got this.
00:42:02There's no way she's not gonna pick you.
00:42:03gonna pick you. Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership. Don't fuck it up. I won't let
00:42:14you down. So Leia is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes. You two can prep your gowns and
00:42:21your models over here. Just don't touch anything. The dress you made? Is that an original Bryn
00:42:30Maxwell design or is it stolen? I don't know what you're talking about. You mean you didn't steal
00:42:39my portfolio and pass off my sketches as yours so you could dress the most famous woman in the world
00:42:46for the Met Gala? Tell me Bryn, have you ever actually picked up a sewing needle? That dress you
00:42:53designed is beautiful but very very complicated. How did you manage to pull that off?
00:43:02We'll just see. Won't we? Yes, we will.
00:43:15Ugh, my gown is hideous. If I don't do something fast, everyone's gonna find out that I'm a total fraud.
00:43:21I've just gotten a taste of fashion fame and I'm not letting Danny with that disaster take it from me.
00:43:40Bye-bye, Danny.
00:43:54So Leia's arriving now. No photos, no sucking up, and no touching. Unless she touches you. Got it? Got it.
00:44:02So Leia, this is Bryn Maxwell. It's so nice to meet you. Where's the other one?
00:44:16She must be running a little bit late. I hate people who waste my time. I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:24Let's see it then.
00:44:44Bryn knocked me out and stole my dress. I knew she was a snake, but I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:51The sample preview is starting now and I have nothing to show.
00:45:04Or maybe I did.
00:45:09I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:15Sorry, fam. It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:18This is, like, the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:23I feel connected to it on, like, a cosmic level.
00:45:26I must wear this dress.
00:45:28I knew you would love it.
00:45:30But what about the other designer? She might...
00:45:32She's late.
00:45:33I'll give her three seconds. If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:37Three, two...
00:45:39Wait!
00:45:40I'm so sorry. I'm late, Celia. I had a little...
00:45:45...bump...
00:45:47...in the rug.
00:45:49I suppose I can forgive you. Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:53Nice gown, Bryn.
00:45:55I wish I could say the same, Dani, but...
00:45:58...your stinks.
00:45:59Gee, I wonder why that is.
00:46:04This dress is so trippy.
00:46:07My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:11Okay, but you're not, like, crying. I mean, like, mine is still better.
00:46:16Right?
00:46:18I wouldn't say that.
00:46:19What?
00:46:21Isn't that crazy?
00:46:23That you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me and Celia still likes my design better?
00:46:30How much longer can you keep up this shrink?
00:46:33I must know. What was your inspiration?
00:46:37I was inspired by those times when someone just tries to knock you out and...
00:46:43...you get the trash and make a treasure.
00:46:48Like the phoenix rises from the ashes again.
00:46:51Or like a rat from a dumpster.
00:46:54I've always felt spiritually connected to the phoenix.
00:46:58Dani, I feel like you really get me.
00:47:01You're a true artist with a true vision.
00:47:03Okay, well, what about my vision?
00:47:06What about my art?
00:47:08Bryn's right.
00:47:09She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:14Bryn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:22Crap, I have no idea how Dani made this.
00:47:26What do I say?
00:47:28How did I do it?
00:47:30You're not gatekeeping your creative process from Celia, are you?
00:47:35If you want her to wear your gown at the Met Gala...
00:47:40...doesn't she deserve to know how you made it?
00:47:45It's true, Celia doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:48It's a simple question Bryn.
00:47:51If you can't answer it, then like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:55I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:48:01Clearly she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:06Okay, this taped together thing is not fashion, okay?
00:48:10It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:13Celia, you cannot wear Dani's dress.
00:48:15I mean, look at it.
00:48:16It's a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.
00:48:19Besides, it's made out of New York Street trash.
00:48:24She's right.
00:48:25It does kind of have like a fishy smell to it.
00:48:28It's giving and I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:33Well, obviously this is just a sample. The real dress would not...
00:48:36Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:39I mean, Celia, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway, but...
00:48:44...Dani's?
00:48:46Danny's is probably made out of...
00:48:48...dizzies, rat feces, and...
00:48:50...meat juice.
00:48:53Oh God, you know I'm a die-hard vegan.
00:48:55I've made my decision.
00:48:59The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:49:04...brins.
00:49:07I can't wear street trash to the Met Gala.
00:49:10It's too big of a risk, even for me.
00:49:13Oh, I'm sorry, Danny.
00:49:15But it's easier to go back to trash when...
00:49:18...you are trash.
00:49:19But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:25Brynn, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:28Like, like, right now?
00:49:30You made this dress in 24 hours.
00:49:33Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:35Once Celia sees Brynn for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:39Yeah. Brynn, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do?
00:49:46Now.
00:49:50I really work better alone.
00:49:56Not today you don't.
00:49:58Do you want me to wear your dress to the Met Gala or not?
00:50:00This is it.
00:50:02This is it.
00:50:04The moment everyone sees that I'm a total fraud.
00:50:08The moment my talents will finally be recognized.
00:50:12Celia,
00:50:14Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine, is here to see you.
00:50:17Oh my god! And she's the chair of the Met Gala board.
00:50:20She must have heard I'm picking my dress today.
00:50:22Maybe they're gonna do a feature.
00:50:24Oh my god, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:30Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:33Miss Summer had to take a call in the car and set me up instead.
00:50:37I'm her personal assistant, here to deliver a message.
00:50:41On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders,
00:50:46Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:54Banned? What the hell for?
00:50:57Insubordination, sabotage amounting to millions of dollars in potential losses,
00:51:01a general lack of personal style.
00:51:06Those aren't just faceless lies.
00:51:09I think we all know who the real liar is here, Danny.
00:51:13How dare you come into Celia's personal studio, waste her precious time knowing you are hated by literally everyone in the fashion industry.
00:51:20Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:23This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:27This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:30Get her out of here.
00:51:32Now.
00:51:36Congratulations.
00:51:37I can't wait to wear your gown to the Met Gala.
00:51:41And I can't wait to steal all of Danny's glory.
00:51:47Hey, Danny, what the hell?
00:51:49Hey, get your hands off of me right now.
00:51:53You okay?
00:51:54Okay, I'd stay back if I were you.
00:51:57Unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life too.
00:52:00Banned?
00:52:02By who?
00:52:04Hannah Summer herself.
00:52:06The editor in chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:11This is the best day of my life.
00:52:13Mine too.
00:52:15Vanessa, I bow to you.
00:52:17Okay.
00:52:20I am the real hero here.
00:52:22I mean, Celia's wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:26And Danny here is going to get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:29The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:32I've given everything for this fashion house.
00:52:35And how do you repay me?
00:52:37By turning everyone in the industry against me?
00:52:40Not everyone.
00:52:44Let's go, Danny.
00:52:47I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:57If I believe it, we'll get our latest post.
00:53:00Can't wait to reveal my hashtag Met Gala look tomorrow.
00:53:04I'll be giving the designer a very special shout out on stage after my exclusive performance.
00:53:11That's my dress. That should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:14Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this. They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:21They're everything that you're not.
00:53:24You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:28And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:30I know what I have to do.
00:53:34I'm gonna sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:39Hell yes you are.
00:53:42I'm sneaking into the Met Gala tomorrow. I have work to do.
00:53:45Let me handle that. Now, let's drink. Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:54Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:53:55Mm-hmm. But it will.
00:53:58You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:01Didn't they used to call you One Cup Club?
00:54:03You're tall, but you're quite the length.
00:54:04I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:05And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:12Oh, my God.
00:54:14You're tall, but you're quite the length.
00:54:17I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:19And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:24I can handle my alcohol much better these days.
00:54:38Whoa.
00:54:40You were lightweight.
00:54:42Speak for yourself.
00:54:46Let's get you to bed.
00:54:49Are you kidding?
00:54:50Seriously.
00:54:51My kidding.
00:54:53Oh, my God.
00:54:55Oh, my God.
00:54:56Oh, my God.
00:54:57Oh, my God.
00:54:59Oh, my God.
00:55:03I suddenly feel very sober.
00:55:06Me too.
00:55:22What do you think?
00:55:32I think the stitching's immaculate.
00:55:35But what's it for?
00:55:37This.
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40This is your party crashing uniform.
00:55:42Marco's gonna meet you on the side entrance of the gala.
00:55:45I owe you both my legs.
00:55:48Hmm.
00:55:49I just want to make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:59I'll meet you there.
00:56:00Where are you going?
00:56:02I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:56:05When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house and sent a fraud to the biggest event in fashion history, it's gonna be over for her and Britain.
00:56:15For everything.
00:56:17I'll meet you there.
00:56:19Good luck.
00:56:22We're here at fashion's biggest night, the Met Gala, where everyone who is anyone has gathered in New York City to celebrate the best of fashion.
00:56:41And- Oh my God.
00:56:42So, Leia.
00:56:44Darlin, how are you?
00:56:45Oh my God.
00:56:46I am freaking out right now.
00:56:47I mean, this gown.
00:56:51Anyway, best dress of the night.
00:56:56Hands down.
00:56:58Oh my God.
00:57:00I am freaking out right now.
00:57:02I mean, this gown.
00:57:04Anyway, best dress of the night.
00:57:09Hands down.
00:57:10Now tell me, who made this incredible creation?
00:57:14I'm actually not revealing who made it yet, but it'll be a big surprise for everyone inside.
00:57:19Cryptic. I love it.
00:57:21Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:27You know, that spring collection that you did was just like, whoa, you know?
00:57:32Yeah, I'm kind of like...
00:57:37...a genius.
00:57:40Brynn got me banned from the Met Gala, but I made it in.
00:57:47And soon she'll be exposed for the fraud she is.
00:57:50How did that slut get in here?
00:57:52She's going to ruin everything!
00:57:56Champagne, Brynn?
00:57:58You cannot be here.
00:58:00You competed against me to dress Solea, the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala, and you lost.
00:58:06Okay. Tonight is my special night, and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:11I'm the one who designed Solea's dress.
00:58:13I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:15After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown, she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:22Brynn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:26I do not have to answer-
00:58:29Face it, Dani.
00:58:31I have won the respect of everyone who matters in the fashion industry.
00:58:35I'm going to be up there, next to Solea on that stage, basking in all your glory.
00:58:40And you?
00:58:42You will still be a no one.
00:58:46You come in here dressed up like a servant, expecting me to do what?
00:58:49Fall out your feet and go,
00:58:50Oh, I'm so sorry Dani, you are so smart and so talented.
00:58:55Never gonna happen.
00:58:57I am rubbing elbows with the hottest, most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:59:02I am wearing the gown of the Met Gala.
00:59:05And you can't touch me now.
00:59:07And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:14Certainly not you, if that's what you're implying.
00:59:20Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:23Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:32You think Brynn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:36Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:39Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:42And what have you done to prove yourself?
00:59:44Sneak into the Met Gala dressed as the help?
00:59:49You know, the servant suit really fits you, Dani.
00:59:51I think you, uh, found your true calling.
00:59:54Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
00:59:59You know, we dated for two years, and I never asked you for a thing.
01:00:04But the minute Vanessa offers you 15 minutes of fame, you drop me without a thought.
01:00:10What will you do once she's used you up and left you in the dust?
01:00:14You have no idea what you're talking about.
01:00:20Yeah.
01:00:22Jealousy is a disease, Dani.
01:00:25Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:30You literally got banned for being a talentless scammer.
01:00:35Are you really so desperate to steal my glory that you'd crash the biggest night in fashion?
01:00:41You must be psychotic.
01:00:43Really?
01:00:44And what's the word for stealing another designer's work and using it for clout?
01:00:48Claude, did 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?
01:01:09Yours is dead in the water.
01:01:12I'll bet you regret hiring that sneaky little weasel now, don't you?
01:01:15Not as much as you're going to regret putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:18Excuse me?
01:01:22Look.
01:01:25I know you and I haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:01:29Hmm.
01:01:31But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:35There's something you should see.
01:01:41Bitch!
01:01:42My star designer worked her fingers to the bone to make that dress for Saleya.
01:01:47Don't you dare try to take credit for her creative genius.
01:01:53Hmm. Very soft.
01:01:55But if she worked her fingers to the bone, then where the count says.
01:01:59How dare you assault me.
01:02:01Leave. Now.
01:02:02Now.
01:02:04Or what?
01:02:05So entitled.
01:02:07You know, you should be grateful to my mother for even allowing you to step foot into her historic couture house.
01:02:13I never said I wasn't.
01:02:15Your mother is one of the best designers in the world and she took a chance on me.
01:02:20I've always been grateful to her.
01:02:22Grateful?
01:02:24You've tarnished her name and reputation and now you're trying to sabotage the biggest night in the history of this fashion house.
01:02:30Just like you tried to sabotage the spring couture show!
01:02:31I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:40Enough!
01:02:41God! You are so embarrassing, Danny!
01:02:52You know, breaking up with you was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:56You did need the favor, really.
01:02:59Thank you so much for saving me from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:03:04Disappointment!
01:03:06If we're talking disappointment, I think it's you because you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:11Oh my god, is there security around here?
01:03:16This disturbed employee is trying to ruin my couture!
01:03:20And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:23So Leia is about to announce Brynn as the designer of her gown and you will not ruin this moment.
01:03:33Get your hands off of her.
01:03:34She's right.
01:03:39Vanessa, what the hell have you done with my fashion house?
01:03:46Nothing, Mom. I fired Danny just like you asked.
01:03:49You what?!
01:03:50I don't understand. It's a mistake!
01:03:55A mistake?!
01:03:57A mistake?!
01:03:59A mistake?!
01:04:00I...
01:04:02Oh!
01:04:04Oh my god, Mom, are you okay?
01:04:06I...
01:04:08I just need a minute.
01:04:10Okay.
01:04:12Anya, are you okay?
01:04:13Oh, Danny.
01:04:15I'm fine.
01:04:16I...
01:04:17There's something I need to say.
01:04:20I can't let that old slut blow my cover.
01:04:23No!
01:04:24She shouldn't speak.
01:04:25She could have another heart attack!
01:04:27Security!
01:04:28Get her out of here!
01:04:31I'm okay. I'm fine.
01:04:33I'm fine!
01:04:34Don't cuss her! You're making it worse!
01:04:35Don't listen to anything this worthless server has to say.
01:04:38Take my mother somewhere quiet.
01:04:40I'm fine!
01:04:41I'll be right there.
01:04:43Danny!
01:04:45Hey, I said hands off.
01:04:46Unless you want me to cut it off, please.
01:04:50What the hell was that about?
01:04:55I know you've all been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the designer I've chosen to partner with.
01:05:03Bryn Maxwell, will you join me on stage?
01:05:05Oh!
01:05:08Oh my god.
01:05:09She had a portrait malfunction.
01:05:12Freak!
01:05:13Fuck!
01:05:14Come on!
01:05:15What the fuck happened?
01:05:16I told you not to fuck it up.
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:18I...
01:05:20What are you looking at me for?
01:05:22You're the designer of the dress.
01:05:25She wants to be a star designer, so that...
01:05:26Let's see if she has the skills to...
01:05:28Throw it off!
01:05:30Someone needs to fix this!
01:05:32Now!
01:05:33Danny?
01:05:34Danny?
01:05:35If that dress splits anymore, this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:38I know you can do it.
01:05:40So, please, do you go ahead and fix the dress?
01:05:43Why would I be able to help?
01:05:45I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:50Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:53No.
01:05:54Danny is a Nepo Baby intern who knows nothing.
01:05:57And Bryn is the creative genius.
01:06:00Remember?
01:06:01Yes.
01:06:02Right?
01:06:03I...
01:06:04I totally know what I'm doing.
01:06:07Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress up.
01:06:11Mm-hmm.
01:06:16Thanks, Danny.
01:06:17I knew you were useless.
01:06:18Thank God Bryn's here.
01:06:21I can do this.
01:06:22How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:25I put my heart and soul into a dress that Solea would be proud to wear at the Metcala.
01:06:32And you built your couture house from the ground up and made so many sunken faces to hire me.
01:06:38I can't let Bryn ruin it all.
01:06:42I have to show Solea what I can do.
01:06:44So go show them who you are.
01:06:47Prove to Solea that you are the genius behind that dress.
01:06:57Bryn.
01:06:58The seams are delicate.
01:06:59The stitch has to be.
01:07:00Shut up!
01:07:01You're ruining her concentration.
01:07:03Um, were you the girl who was, like, banned from the Met Gala?
01:07:06Her life?
01:07:07Yeah, she is.
01:07:08She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:10I shouldn't be here?
01:07:11Look at the way Bryn's holding that needle.
01:07:13How much longer can you keep up this act?
01:07:16Just step aside and let me...
01:07:21Okay, somebody has to call Hannah Summer.
01:07:23The chair of the Gala will know how to handle this dirty little party crasher.
01:07:30What now?
01:07:31We have a security situation.
01:07:33Party crasher on the Gala floor.
01:07:35Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:38Danny?
01:07:39Anya's star designer?
01:07:44I'm fine.
01:07:45I am not some delicate little flower.
01:07:47I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:53Hannah.
01:07:54Darling.
01:07:57Anya.
01:07:58I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the Gala.
01:08:01Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:08:03What?
01:08:04I said I've got it.
01:08:08Fine.
01:08:09That's the way you want it to be.
01:08:16See?
01:08:17As a true genius behind this dress, I think it's good as new.
01:08:22Shout out to my hella talented designer Bryn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture for dressing me tonight.
01:08:31Thanks to her, I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:35All of my hard work ruined by Bryn's ego.
01:08:55You know, it takes a profound lack of talents to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:08:59Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair job was that?
01:09:05That girl is so not worthy of dressing Solea.
01:09:08Yes, I am!
01:09:10I'm suing Anya Winters for all your brand is worth!
01:09:14This is all your fault!
01:09:16My fault?
01:09:18I was trying to help!
01:09:19I was trying to take your mom's little washed-up brand and make it relevant by dressing the hottest, most famous woman in the world!
01:09:25How dare you call my mother's brand washed-up! You're gonna pay for that!
01:09:30How?
01:09:31Are you gonna fire me like you fired Danny?
01:09:35When all those loser designers got let go, I replaced the staff with my own people.
01:09:40If I go, they go.
01:09:42How will Anya Winters keep its title as number one couture house without a design staff?
01:09:48You won't keep your spot as number one, as long as you have a fraud like Bryn as your creative director either.
01:09:56Dude, that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:10:00I'm calling my lawyers.
01:10:02Bryn, this is all your fault!
01:10:05Okay, if you guys all want someone to blame for this, why did you blame Fanny, okay?
01:10:08I didn't even make that stupid dress! She did!
01:10:16I-I didn't-I-I-I didn't-I didn't mean-
01:10:20I think it's finally time to show them who you really are.
01:10:23Bryn's right.
01:10:25I designed the dress.
01:10:27And...
01:10:28I'll prove it.
01:10:38Saleya? Will you meet me on stage?
01:10:40Don't!
01:10:42You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch. I mean, look at her!
01:10:46She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:47Image means nothing without substance. Without talent. A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:55Damn. That's deep. I agree. I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:01I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:02I'm pretty sure you are the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:03I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:04Danny Maxwell, you were a genius.
01:11:25I have never seen something so stunning.
01:11:32I need her to dress me like that.
01:11:34Wait, this means that I fumbled a super-talented baddie?
01:11:39Oh, fuck!
01:11:41It's everything I've ever wanted.
01:11:44You saved this night.
01:11:48Holy cow.
01:11:50This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
01:11:53You're a visionary.
01:11:55And this time, everyone knows it.
01:11:58So, Leia! Who are you wearing?
01:12:01I'm wearing...
01:12:04Danny Maxwell.
01:12:07The classé jean couture.
01:12:10I can't be.
01:12:12Danny's the superstar designer that I've found.
01:12:15This is what I've been trying to tell you.
01:12:17Danny is a fashion icon.
01:12:20You.
01:12:21You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's couture brand.
01:12:27You were the brain-dead nepo baby idiot she warned me about!
01:12:31What is that strung out deadbeat intern doing at the fucking Met Gala?
01:12:38I thought you fired her.
01:12:40I didn't fire her.
01:12:41I actually promoted her to creative director.
01:12:44You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my star designer?!
01:12:51Yeah, I did.
01:12:54Do you know how hard I've worked?
01:12:56Do you know how much money I spent to get Danny Maxwell in my fashion house?
01:13:02She is the lifeblood of this brand.
01:13:06And what did you do?
01:13:08You fired her?!
01:13:10So, is that Maxwell along?
01:13:15Vanessa?
01:13:16You're fired!
01:13:17No, Mom!
01:13:18Please!
01:13:19Please!
01:13:20You can't!
01:13:21I need this!
01:13:22I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter!
01:13:23When I turned this over to you, my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture!
01:13:29And now look at it!
01:13:30It's a laughing stock!
01:13:32And you!
01:13:34You did this!
01:13:36I'm really sorry!
01:13:38She made me fucked up!
01:13:40How did I fucked up so bad?!
01:13:46Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala, and she personally banned Danny.
01:13:51You would not want to bash an outcast on your team, Al, would you?
01:13:54You have some nerve telling me what I did or didn't do?
01:14:01You duped us all into thinking you're a fashion icon when you're nothing more than a dirty scammer in a designer dress.
01:14:10Danny Maxwell is officially granted a lifetime invitation to the Met Gala.
01:14:19But you are banned forever.
01:14:23And you're fired, too.
01:14:25Security!
01:14:26No!
01:14:27Take her away!
01:14:28No! Please!
01:14:29Hand her over to the cops.
01:14:30She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion.
01:14:33No! Please!
01:14:36Danny, please come back to work for me.
01:14:40You know how much I have done for you.
01:14:44My fashion house can't survive without you. I am begging you.
01:14:50Everything you gave me, I gave it all back when your daughter accused me of sabotaging a thing I put my heart and soul into creating.
01:14:57No! She's exaggerating! That's not what happened! It was Brynn!
01:15:01She was scheming to try to steal Danny's job the whole time!
01:15:05That bitch duped me and got me all confused!
01:15:08Seriously?
01:15:09Well, that confusion almost cost me my whole fashion career and everything I've worked for.
01:15:14Did it feel good making me take the fall for your stupid mistakes?
01:15:19Danny, look, I'm so sorry.
01:15:23I'm sorry, too.
01:15:25I'm not coming back to Anya Winter Couture.
01:15:28I'm staying where I know I'm appreciated.
01:15:31Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style.
01:15:35So please, step aside.
01:15:43This is our moment.
01:15:47Then we at Claude Saint-Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best on it.
01:15:50You ruined it! You have ruined everything I've built!
01:16:03I...
01:16:07Wow.
01:16:08Really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:11Yes.
01:16:12Sorry, are you crying?
01:16:15God, you're hot.
01:16:17It is.
01:16:18Have you ever wanted to be the face of a menswear line?
01:16:21Hell yeah.
01:16:24You better not show up at the office tomorrow.
01:16:27I never should have hired you.
01:16:32Oh, no.
01:16:33I need a job.
01:16:35Vanessa! Vanessa!
01:16:38I'm too hot to be on these streets!
01:16:39I'm too hot to be on these streets!
01:16:45Call me.
01:16:47Danny!
01:16:48Why could I ever leave you?
01:16:51We have to take some red carpet tricks together.
01:16:54I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who made my dress to be.
01:16:58Give me five minutes.
01:17:10I knew you'd take back your plan.
01:17:15Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:19I always have.
01:17:21And I always will.
01:17:34Congratulations.
01:17:35He made it to the top.
01:17:39And that's where I'll stay.
