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.
00:00:16Destroyed.
00:00:17We're gonna have to cancel the show.
00:00:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:00:20This is Anya's biggest collection ever, okay?
00:00:24She worked on it for years,
00:00:25and if she comes back and we have nothing to show,
00:00:28we'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 definitely 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
00:00:48can design a whole couture collection overnight.
00:00:50Guys, there's no time to argue.
00:00:51The show is in five hours!
00:00:53What are we gonna 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!
00:01:16The invisible stitching, it's immaculate!
00:01:20There you have it.
00:01:22A gown fit for the Anya Winter Spring Couture collection.
00:01:26Hush.
00:01:30This is impossible.
00:01:32I thought you were just some delusional intern,
00:01:35but this dress...
00:01:37Most designers could only dream of making something so stunning.
00:01:40This is gonna launch a million dupes,
00:01:42but none of them are gonna come close to the real thing.
00:01:45I heard Anya recently hired a fashion school prodigy
00:01:48who designed the iconic closing look in the fall collection.
00:01:52Is that you?
00:01:54No!
00:01:55No!
00:01:56It's still not the right!
00:01:57Ow!
00:02:04Um...
00:02:05Miss 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
00:02:15when the fall couture show is in two days
00:02:17and I haven't finished my final look?
00:02:20May I?
00:02:21Sure.
00:02:22So sorry that I ripped the fabric and destroyed the flowers.
00:02:31Sacrifices do need to be made in the interest of good design.
00:02:35Not everybody knows that.
00:02:37An entire team of couture legends and nobody could come up with something this inspired.
00:02:44Forget about the internship.
00:02:46You are gonna be my head designer.
00:02:49There's no time to explain.
00:02:51We need 29 more gowns to make for the show.
00:02:54It's 3 in the morning.
00:02:55Where are we gonna find fabric for 29 dresses?
00:02:57Take those crystals off the chandelier.
00:02:59And someone cut 20 yards of silk velvet from the curtains.
00:03:03And rip the fringe of the carpet.
00:03:04And the leather from the couch cushions.
00:03:07And any flowers.
00:03:08Stack!
00:03:11But we're gonna destroy this place!
00:03:13Sacrifices must be made in the interest of good design.
00:03:17Anya will understand.
00:03:21I'm speechless.
00:03:22I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:23I'm speechless.
00:03:24I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:25This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:26Dior who?
00:03:27Anya Winters is number one in the couture game game.
00:03:28I'm speechless.
00:03:29I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:30This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:31Dior who?
00:03:32Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:33I'm speechless.
00:03:34I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:35This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:36Dior who?
00:03:37Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:38How?
00:03:39I'm speechless.
00:03:41I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:42This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:43Dior who?
00:03:44Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:46I'm speechless.
00:03:47I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:49This is a stunning new direction for Anya.
00:03:50Dior who?
00:03:51Anya Winters is number one in the couture game now.
00:03:55You all head back to the studio, I'll grab some champagne to celebrate.
00:04:10I can't believe Randy completed this entire collection overnight.
00:04:16Where'd she even come from?
00:04:17No clue, but her mind is fucking insane.
00:04:25What the hell is going on here? This is disgusting!
00:04:29Is 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.
00:04:37Jordyn, who is this woman? Is she working with you on the PR team?
00:04:40PR? This woman is the daughter of Anya Winter.
00:04:45Vanessa got her degree from Central Saint Martins in London and is currently an editor for Vogue.
00:04:52And 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. You're fired.
00:05:12Pack up your bags and go back to bumfuck Ohio.
00:05:17Anya Winter 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? Just 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? Miranda Priestly?
00:05:43Oh my god.
00:05:49What is this?
00:05:50Stitching is disgusting and the fabric is worn.
00:05:57No! That was the first thing my mom and I saw together!
00:06:00Well, 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.
00:06:15Oh yeah, and by the way, you're fired!
00:06:21Okay! Now please, can somebody show me something? A collection?
00:06:27Congratulations!
00:06:28Who are you?
00:06:32You. You're the one who destroyed my mother's studio.
00:06:37You're fired.
00:06:39Wait, you're firing me?
00:06:42Danny Maxwell.
00:06:44Jordan, what does this lumpy little girl do here?
00:06:48Danny Maxwell is actually one of our top interns.
00:06:51She's an intern?
00:06:52Mmm.
00:06:53So what? You 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?
00:07:02That's not what we-
00:07:03I would say we could take out the damages from your salary.
00:07:07But you're probably not getting paid.
00:07:10Actually, she's our highest paid employee. She's making over $500,000 a year.
00:07:13Jordan!
00:07:15That's-that's confidential.
00:07:17So you're scamming my mother?
00:07:19You know, she might be getting old, but she's not an idiot.
00:07:22And what?
00:07:24This is how you spend the money?
00:07:26No, no. Look, the team is up all night working.
00:07:28Our hands are cramping. We're tired, but we saved the spring show.
00:07:34Don't we deserve to celebrate?
00:07:37Celebrate?
00:07:39By destroying a studio?
00:07:42Lying?
00:07:44Talking back to your superiors?
00:07:46Drinking on the job?
00:07:48No wonder my mother had a heart attack.
00:07:50Our PR team is supposed to be able to handle these types of liabilities.
00:07:54Unless, of course, you're just as useless as she is.
00:07:56Or do you actually care about this brand's legacy?
00:08:01Jordan and I have been dating for two years.
00:08:04He knows how hard I work.
00:08:06But there's no way he's going to throw me under the bus.
00:08:08Danny's my girlfriend.
00:08:10If I take her side, I'll be committing career suicide.
00:08:13You're right.
00:08:15Danny's behavior is unacceptable in the house of Anya Winter.
00:08:19Jordan, seriously?
00:08:21What 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.
00:08:28This isn't Danny's fault.
00:08:29She's the one who saved-
00:08:30Oh!
00:08:32Do you want to go with her?
00:08:34If anyone else here helps Danny destroy this studio, please feel free to speak up now.
00:08:41It's okay, guys.
00:08:42Anya Winter is the top couture house in the world now.
00:08:44And you've all earned your spots.
00:08:47It was my fault.
00:08:51Then leave it.
00:08:55How could you?
00:09:00Leave back.
00:09:02Dispose of that piece of shit.
00:09:07Baby!
00:09:08I'm so sorry.
00:09:11We've been together for two years. You couldn't even defend me?
00:09:13She would have fired me on the spot.
00:09:16Look.
00:09:17We both know that I don't have a degree.
00:09:20And it's a miracle that you got me this job.
00:09:24And if I lose it, then...
00:09:27Then who's going to pay for all the expensive champagne that we're going to have at our anniversary dinner tonight?
00:09:33Well, you better spring for caviar, too.
00:09:37You owe me...
00:09:39Big time, Jordan.
00:09:41I promise.
00:09:42I'm going to make it up to you.
00:09:44Let's meet tonight at 8.
00:09:46Okay?
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.
00:10:00So are those other big mouth bitches.
00:10:04Not a good look for the PR manager.
00:10:06Today's not my...
00:10:08She better not be.
00:10:10Hmm.
00:10:12You're hot, you know.
00:10:14My mother wants to start a menswear line.
00:10:17You could be the PR director.
00:10:20What do you prefer?
00:10:21An unemployed fashion flop?
00:10:23Or a rich, powerful boss?
00:10:25Say it.
00:10:26Mommy.
00:10:27What else?
00:10:28What else?
00:10:29Does baby need a change?
00:10:30Baby needs a change.
00:10:31Yeah, he does.
00:10:32Stinky.
00:10:33Stinky.
00:10:34Stinky.
00:10:35Yes, mother.
00:10:36Mm-hmm.
00:10:37Stupid people.
00:10:38They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:40I need you to run things a little while longer.
00:10:41I have stylists breathing down my neck after that marvel of a couture show.
00:10:43I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:10:44Thank God we have her on the team.
00:10:45I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:10:46Yes, mother.
00:10:48Yes, mother.
00:10:49Mm-hmm.
00:10:50Stupid people.
00:10:51They want to keep me here for two more weeks.
00:10:56I 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.
00:11:07I mean, I don't know how Maxwell pulled it off.
00:11:09Thank God we have her on the team.
00:11:11I know how you can be, Vanessa.
00:11:14You 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.
00:11:28Is there any other Maxwell in the design team?
00:11:31I'm going to stop this at some point.
00:11:37She single-handedly saved my last two shows.
00:11:40A creative genius.
00:11:42I mean, I snatched her up right out of college to make sure those other couture houses couldn't get 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.
00:12:03And there's another Maxwell.
00:12:06What is her name?
00:12:07Anyway, 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.
00:12:17Do me a favor.
00:12:19Fire her.
00:12:20Thank 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.
00:12:29I'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.
00:12:40Oh.
00:12:42I knew that girlfriend of yours was a loser.
00:12:46Now, 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?
00:12:59It'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.
00:13:10In one hour.
00:13:12Well, let's hope Maxwell can hold us up.
00:13:19Where is Brynn Maxwell?
00:13:23Jordan, get Brynn on the phone and tell her nicely to get her ass here now.
00:13:36What 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.
00:13:45Danny, the grumpy dumbass.
00:13:48She left her old sketch portfolio.
00:13:51Oh my gosh, these are iconic.
00:13:53No wonder Anya was obsessed with her.
00:13:58I rolled up hungover five hours late after almost ruining the Paris fashion show.
00:14:04I'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.
00:14:20Why 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 Danny's sketches and no one will know.
00:14:30Oh my gosh, I'm going to be a star.
00:14:34Well?
00:14:35Brynn's handling it.
00:14:37Nice work.
00:14:39Man, dressed in Solea, that's like, so sick.
00:14:43I know.
00:14:44This 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 D.
00:14:58Unless, of course, you want to go with Danny.
00:15:05Where is Jordan?
00:15:06He's 20 when it's late.
00:15:08No, I don't want her.
00:15:10I was going to break up with her tonight anyway.
00:15:13I want you.
00:15:16Duh.
00:15:16Good choice.
00:15:21Guess I'll drag him here myself.
00:15:24Gosh, you're so powerful, so sexy.
00:15:36It's her anniversary and you're fucking the woman who fired me?
00:15:42She is a fashion superstar, okay?
00:15:45And you're just...
00:15:46An unemployed loser.
00:15:48You spineless dick.
00:15:51You psycho bitch!
00:15:52Are 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 box's throat?
00:16:05You know your place, you tacky, talentless sloth.
00:16:12Face it, Danny.
00:16:13You're a fool.
00:16:15And you can't get mad at me for...
00:16:17upgrading.
00:16:18I love you, Jordan.
00:16:23And the only reason you're here is because of her.
00:16:27Because I told Anya to make you PR manager.
00:16:29Are 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.
00:16:38We are over, Danny.
00:16:48I'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.
00:16:57You know what?
00:16:58Enough 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?
00:17:03Hi, security.
00:17:05Yes, there's a delusional ex-employee who's refusing to leave my studio.
00:17:12Oh, Danny.
00:17:13Don't be sad.
00:17:14Look, I get it.
00:17:16I'm powerful.
00:17:17Smart.
00:17:19Experienced.
00:17:21And you?
00:17:23Well, 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.
00:17:44And where do you think you're going, Danny?
00:17:47Guards.
00:17:48She's over here.
00:17:51Who the hell are you?
00:17:53I'm the creative mastermind behind the new Spring Couture Collection.
00:17:56Bryn Maxwell.
00:17:59Oh.
00:18:00Wow.
00:18:00Well, I can see why my mother sung your praises.
00:18:05Oh.
00:18:06Is that an archival saloon bag?
00:18:08Well, 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.
00:18:18Who cares?
00:18:19As 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?
00:18:39Danny'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 Winter's fashion house.
00:18:55The show's a hit.
00:18:56How is that possible?
00:18:57Apparently, Anya's daughter, Vanessa, forced her out.
00:19:00Of course.
00:19:00I would love to see the look on Anya Winter's face when she discovers her big-headed bimbo of a daughter fired her star designer.
00:19:09Call Danny up.
00:19:10Let's get her here.
00:19:11But Anya Winter's is the number one fashion house in the world.
00:19:14We'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?
00:19:20I'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 Gala look.
00:19:25And if we can dress the most famous woman on the planet on the biggest night in fashion, we'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 Danny Maxwell.
00:19:43Sabotage?
00:19:43Are you kidding me?
00:19:44You 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.
00:19:57You 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?
00:20:09You think she is your savior?
00:20:12Well, then best of luck when Anya comes back and sees what a mess you've made.
00:20:15This is your mess, Danny Maxwell.
00:20:18I literally cannot stand another second of your desperate yes.
00:20:21Don'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.
00:20:28First 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.
00:20:48Vandalism, 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.
00:21:01If 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?
00:21:14To make sure another fashion house isn't infected with Danny's terrible taste?
00:21:19Brynn's right.
00:21:20You should go right to the source.
00:21:21Do not let her get away with this.
00:21:23I have all my mother's industry contacts at my fingertips.
00:21:28I'm texting the fashion council now.
00:21:30Danny Maxwell is blacklisted from Anya Winter.
00:21:34Other designers, beware of this dangerous scammer.
00:21:39No other fashion house will want, you know.
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.
00:21:50Vanessa, does Anya, the CEO and creator of this fashion house, know that you fired me?
00:21:56What kind of 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?
00:22:09Your career is so hopeful.
00:22:11Hey, security, can you take her away and throw her to something?
00:22:14Jail cell, police, whatever.
00:22:17Get your hands off of her.
00:22:20That is my new creative director.
00:22:26Danny Maxwell will join Claude St. John's fashion house.
00:22:30Claude St. John of St. John Couture?
00:22:33You came all the way from New York for me?
00:22:34Of course.
00:22:37I 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.
00:22:45Wait, you went to Valentino with him?
00:22:50How'd you get that job, Danny?
00:22:52You scam your way into that one, too?
00:22:55God, Danny.
00:22:57We went out.
00:22:57I had no idea that you were such a grifter.
00:23:00I 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.
00:23:11Claude, I...
00:23:12That is Mr. St. John to you.
00:23:14And actually, this matter concerns those with actual design talent.
00:23:18Yeah, what are you, a mid-level PR pawn?
00:23:20You should probably know when to shut the hell up.
00:23:22Mr. St. John, Danny here has done irreparable damage, and...
00:23:26Sorry, who the hell are you?
00:23:28Obviously, I...
00:23:29I'm right.
00:23:30I don't have time for your rambling.
00:23:31Enough!
00:23:32This idiot destroyed my mother's collection,
00:23:35wrecked her entire Paris fashion studio,
00:23:38ruined the entire Couture show,
00:23:40almost lost us millions,
00:23:41and why are we still talking about her?
00:23:43Did 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.
00:23:56Of course, I consulted her, and you know what she said?
00:23:59She said that this idiot Danny is a Nepo baby intern
00:24:03who scammed her way into the job.
00:24:05Brain dead.
00:24:07Anya actually said this.
00:24:09And a useless disaster.
00:24:10She quite literally said to me,
00:24:12do me a favor and fire this bitch.
00:24:14Anya practically begged me to work for her.
00:24:18She wouldn't walk back on a decision like that.
00:24:20Okay, we all know Anya, okay?
00:24:22And she wouldn't beg anyone for anything,
00:24:25especially to work with a deadweight intern.
00:24:28Then why are you still here?
00:24:30What, you little...
00:24:30Oh, don't even try it.
00:24:33Danny,
00:24:34will you come with me
00:24:36and 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.
00:24:43She's literally robbing us blind.
00:24:46A millionaire, is there?
00:24:51Please, a million dollar salary?
00:24:53Your fashion house doesn't even rank in the top 10.
00:24:56Are you clinically insane?
00:24:58You're an even bigger bullshitter than Danny.
00:25:02A million dollars for a talentless intern.
00:25:06Way 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...
00:25:15It's not about the money.
00:25:17Danny,
00:25:18if you join my fashion house,
00:25:20the title of creative director will be yours.
00:25:22Creative control over the next season's Couture Collection
00:25:24will be yours.
00:25:26My designers, my studio,
00:25:28my full trust.
00:25:29And hell, if you want me,
00:25:32I'm even yours too.
00:25:35Oh, Claude.
00:25:37Okay, look, I get it.
00:25:39You hustled from the bottom
00:25:40to build your own fashion brand,
00:25:42and I respect you for that.
00:25:44So let me remind you
00:25:45that Danny
00:25:46is a lazy scam artist.
00:25:48Even my mother says hiring her
00:25:50is a literal death wish.
00:25:51In that case...
00:25:58Okay.
00:26:00What is all this shit?
00:26:01This shit is everything
00:26:02that your mother gives to me.
00:26:04Her one and only key
00:26:05to her personal studio,
00:26:07the business black card in my name,
00:26:08which I could have used
00:26:09to repair the damages,
00:26:10but I guess that's not my concern anymore.
00:26:14You can tell Anya
00:26:15that I, Danny Maxwell,
00:26:17am more than happy
00:26:18to walk away from this fashion house
00:26:20and never, ever come back.
00:26:24Aw.
00:26:25So sad for us.
00:26:27Not.
00:26:28You did not deserve
00:26:29any special treatment, Danny.
00:26:31I mean, just look at you.
00:26:33Your complete fashion flop.
00:26:35You know, you are all so wrapped up
00:26:37in beauty standards and bullshit
00:26:38that you can't even see
00:26:39the design talent
00:26:40that is right in front of you.
00:26:43Danny, it is true.
00:26:45We have been struggling
00:26:46to beat out Anya Winter
00:26:47for the number one title spot.
00:26:48Then I'm gonna change that.
00:26:50I'll join as a creative director.
00:26:53And by this time,
00:26:54next season's runway show,
00:26:57Saint Jean Couture
00:26:58will be number one.
00:27:02You know,
00:27:03I almost feel embarrassed
00:27:04for you, Danny.
00:27:05Losing your spot
00:27:06at the number one fashion house
00:27:08to go and work for this
00:27:09desperate up-and-comer.
00:27:13Although,
00:27:13who else would hire you?
00:27:16Embarrassed for her.
00:27:17You know,
00:27:18Vanessa's gonna burn
00:27:19this place to the ground
00:27:19and you
00:27:20are gonna be left
00:27:21for this PR shitstorm
00:27:22to clean up.
00:27:23And something tells me
00:27:25you're not qualified
00:27:26for that, are you?
00:27:27Qualified?
00:27:28And what exactly
00:27:28are you qualified for?
00:27:31Propositioning idiotic interns
00:27:32to go out and peddle up
00:27:34your hideous designs
00:27:35to some micro-influencers?
00:27:38What?
00:27:39I did.
00:27:46She did.
00:27:49She will.
00:27:51Who is that?
00:27:52That was Soleil's team.
00:27:55They've asked for five sketches
00:27:56from Danny
00:27:56for her Met Gala look.
00:27:58What was that about
00:27:58micro-influencers?
00:28:01If I'm not mistaken,
00:28:02she has more followers
00:28:04than anyone in the world?
00:28:06Absolutely not.
00:28:08Brynn is supposed
00:28:09to design Soleil's gown.
00:28:10Brynn?
00:28:13Guess we got ourselves
00:28:14some competition.
00:28:15This isn't a competition.
00:28:16It's an all-out fashion war.
00:28:19Well, I hope you're ready
00:28:19to die on the battlefield.
00:28:21Let's go, Danny.
00:28:22Gladly.
00:28:23I'm losing brain cells
00:28:24talking to these people.
00:28:27May the best designer win.
00:28:28Don't worry about her, Vanessa.
00:28:33Just send these
00:28:33to Soleil's team
00:28:34and there's no way
00:28:36she won't pick us.
00:28:39I'll be Danny
00:28:40with her own designs.
00:28:42Oh my God, Brynn.
00:28:43These are incredible.
00:28:45Between these
00:28:46and the Spring Couture collection,
00:28:49you've really proven yourself.
00:28:51I'm officially naming you
00:28:53as Creative Director
00:28:54of Ani Winter Couture.
00:28:56This is a dream come true.
00:29:01And don't forget about me
00:29:03in the face
00:29:04of the menswear line.
00:29:08Great.
00:29:09One step at a time.
00:29:11Stick with me
00:29:12and you'll be very satisfied.
00:29:16Every designer
00:29:17will be gunning for our spot
00:29:18as top couture collection
00:29:20in the world.
00:29:21That's why we need
00:29:23to dress Soleil at the Met Gala.
00:29:25And no one can touch us.
00:29:26Not even clawed
00:29:28in that hack, Danny.
00:29:30I won't lay you down, Vanessa.
00:29:32Now, walk me through
00:29:33how you designed
00:29:34the couture collection
00:29:35in four hours.
00:29:36How did I do it?
00:29:37Oh, God.
00:29:41I can't design for crap.
00:29:43I have no idea
00:29:44how Danny pulled that off.
00:29:45What the hell
00:29:46am I going to tell her?
00:29:48I used a highly specialized
00:29:51sewing technique
00:29:52that I learned
00:29:52in my final year
00:29:53of fashion school.
00:29:55The details are really boring.
00:29:57I could show you later.
00:29:59Of course.
00:29:59You have your own technique.
00:30:01You are the creative genius.
00:30:03I mean,
00:30:03these are already
00:30:04Met Gala worthy.
00:30:05If you can bring them
00:30:06to life half as well
00:30:07as you did
00:30:07the spring collection,
00:30:09you have nothing
00:30:09to worry about.
00:30:10Nothing at all.
00:30:12I am now
00:30:13the creative director
00:30:14of the number one
00:30:15fashion house
00:30:16in the world.
00:30:17Step aside, Danny.
00:30:19I'm the new couture queen now.
00:30:21What do you want?
00:30:26Anya,
00:30:27it's Claude Zinjohn.
00:30:29Listen,
00:30:29I'm just calling
00:30:30to let you know
00:30:30that we are officially
00:30:31in the running
00:30:31to dress Leia
00:30:32at her Met Gala.
00:30:34What?
00:30:35We are the number one
00:30:37couture house
00:30:38in the world right now.
00:30:39Why would she want you
00:30:41to dress her
00:30:41as if some young,
00:30:42arrogant,
00:30:43dumbass could...
00:30:44Listen,
00:30:45I'm not calling
00:30:45to discuss this.
00:30:46I'm just simply
00:30:46letting you know.
00:30:51Cheers.
00:30:54What the hell
00:30:55is that rat up to?
00:30:57He knows I have
00:30:58a design prodigy
00:30:59at my right hand.
00:31:01Why would he think
00:31:02anybody could beat
00:31:04a superstar like Danny?
00:31:10Unless...
00:31:10Mother,
00:31:14you'll never believe
00:31:15the sketches I got from...
00:31:16Tell me you didn't fire
00:31:18my most talented designer!
00:31:21Calm down, Mother,
00:31:24or else you'll have
00:31:25another heart attack.
00:31:26Like I told you already,
00:31:27I fired that
00:31:28brain-dead
00:31:29slacker intern.
00:31:30Why the hell
00:31:31is Claude St. John
00:31:33competing with us
00:31:34for the Met Gala
00:31:35partnership?
00:31:36Well,
00:31:36I just figured
00:31:37it was pointless
00:31:38to talk him out of it
00:31:39when he's obviously
00:31:40going to crash and burn
00:31:41along with that
00:31:42talentless intern.
00:31:43They'll design something
00:31:44cheap and tacky
00:31:45for Saleya,
00:31:46and then she'll tell
00:31:48everybody she knows
00:31:49not to touch
00:31:50St. John Couture
00:31:51with a 10-foot pole.
00:31:54And then their sad
00:31:55little fashion careers,
00:31:56they'll be over it
00:31:57before they even started.
00:31:58So you
00:31:59gaslit Claude
00:32:02into hiring
00:32:03our cast-off?
00:32:04Sure did.
00:32:05He's convinced
00:32:06that the talentless
00:32:07Nepo Baby
00:32:07is the creative genius
00:32:08behind our spring line.
00:32:10That's brilliant!
00:32:11And I thought
00:32:14you're a weak
00:32:14little pushover
00:32:15like your father,
00:32:16but maybe you're
00:32:18more like me
00:32:19than I knew.
00:32:20Vanessa,
00:32:21I want you to
00:32:22take full control
00:32:23over the Met Gala
00:32:24partnership with Saleya.
00:32:26Oh, thank you!
00:32:28No more talking!
00:32:30It's time to get to work,
00:32:31and we need to make
00:32:32damn sure
00:32:33Saleya picks
00:32:34our gown for the gala.
00:32:36We are going to make
00:32:37Claude St. John
00:32:39the laughingstock
00:32:40of the fashion.
00:32:41industry.
00:32:44Everyone's buzzing
00:32:45about this
00:32:46Met Gala partnership.
00:32:47Vanessa's never
00:32:48run a fashion house
00:32:49before.
00:32:50Are you sure
00:32:50she can handle this?
00:32:51Did I ask your opinion?
00:32:54My daughter
00:32:54can't fuck this up.
00:32:56Not with Danny Maxwell
00:32:58designing the gown
00:32:59for Saleya.
00:33:01Did I tell you
00:33:02that she actually
00:33:03convinced Claude
00:33:04St. John
00:33:05to hire our
00:33:07strung-out
00:33:08sad sack
00:33:08of an intern?
00:33:09I get to sit back.
00:33:10And watch Danny
00:33:12work her magic
00:33:13for Saleya's gown
00:33:15while that
00:33:16hack of a talent
00:33:18completely tanks
00:33:19what's left
00:33:20of Claude's
00:33:22fashion house.
00:33:23So,
00:33:31how does our studio
00:33:33compare to the
00:33:34great Anya
00:33:34winters?
00:33:37It's insane
00:33:38what you've
00:33:38accomplished.
00:33:40I mean,
00:33:40four years ago
00:33:40you were a glorified
00:33:41errand boy at
00:33:42Valentino
00:33:42and now look at you.
00:33:45Your own
00:33:45couture line.
00:33:47It's everything
00:33:48you ever wanted.
00:33:49Not everything.
00:33:53Well,
00:33:53what about you,
00:33:54Danny?
00:33:54I mean,
00:33:54when I met you
00:33:55you were a quiet
00:33:56little intern
00:33:56and now you're
00:33:57a fashion genius.
00:34:00I'm serious.
00:34:00I mean,
00:34:01that work you did
00:34:02on that spring
00:34:02collection
00:34:02it was
00:34:03inspiring.
00:34:04It was inspiring.
00:34:11Yes.
00:34:14Of course.
00:34:17You'll be there.
00:34:19So Leah loved
00:34:20your Metcala sketches.
00:34:22She chose her
00:34:23favorite from you
00:34:23and Brayden
00:34:24and she wants you
00:34:24both to show her
00:34:25a sample.
00:34:26Oh my god,
00:34:27when?
00:34:30Tomorrow afternoon?
00:34:31You have 24 hours
00:34:32to make this dress
00:34:33for Solea.
00:34:33Better get started.
00:34:36I mean,
00:34:37we just got back
00:34:37from New York
00:34:38and I...
00:34:38You created
00:34:39an entire
00:34:40couture collection
00:34:41in what?
00:34:41Four hours?
00:34:43This should be
00:34:43a breeze, right?
00:34:44Right.
00:34:45I can totally
00:34:46pull this off.
00:34:47Then do it.
00:34:49Now!
00:34:53You think
00:34:53you can pull off
00:34:54creating a Metcala gown
00:34:55for a triple A-list
00:34:55celeb in under 24 hours?
00:34:57Who do you think
00:34:57you're talking to?
00:34:59Well,
00:34:59whatever it is,
00:35:00it just needs
00:35:01to be better than this.
00:35:02This is our competition.
00:35:04That's my sketch.
00:35:08That frog brain
00:35:09has been stealing
00:35:09my designs.
00:35:10Of course.
00:35:16She has no real talent
00:35:16of her own.
00:35:21Damn.
00:35:22That dress is insane.
00:35:24I mean,
00:35:25a skirt made
00:35:26of stained glass?
00:35:28Insane is right.
00:35:29It's going to be
00:35:30nearly impossible
00:35:31to sew a bodice
00:35:31that could support
00:35:32the weight of the skirt.
00:35:33If Solea puts on
00:35:35this gown,
00:35:35it's a wardrobe
00:35:36malfunction waiting
00:35:37to happen.
00:35:37Prina wants to be
00:35:38a fashion icon
00:35:39so bad.
00:35:41How will she
00:35:42pull us off?
00:35:43Then it's an easy win,
00:35:44right?
00:35:45We'll just sit back
00:35:46and let the thieves
00:35:46crash and burn.
00:35:47Not exactly.
00:35:50I'm going to make
00:35:51the same exact dress,
00:35:52only better.
00:35:54Then there'll be
00:35:54no question
00:35:55who the real designer is.
00:35:57But I thought you said
00:35:58it was impossible
00:35:58to pull off.
00:36:01I said
00:36:02nearly
00:36:02impossible.
00:36:03Bryn can try
00:36:08to rip off
00:36:09my designs
00:36:09all she wants.
00:36:11But without the brains
00:36:12or skills
00:36:12to back it up,
00:36:14there's no way
00:36:14she's going to pull it off.
00:36:16And if she tries,
00:36:17that gown is going to
00:36:18fall apart faster
00:36:19than you can say
00:36:20fashion victim.
00:36:25Let's remember
00:36:25this day,
00:36:26the last day
00:36:27that Claude Céjean
00:36:28Catorre
00:36:29will be at the bottom
00:36:30of the fashion food chase.
00:36:31By this time tomorrow
00:36:34we'll be the new rulers
00:36:36of the Couture Kingdom.
00:36:41What the hell is this?
00:36:43Why can't you guys
00:36:44attach the top of the dress
00:36:45to the bottom of the dress?
00:36:47Oh, my God.
00:36:48Bryn, the skirt
00:36:49is too heavy.
00:36:50I have no excuses!
00:36:51We have four hours
00:36:53to make a dress for Célea.
00:36:54Oh, my God.
00:36:56Oh, my God.
00:36:56Oh, my God.
00:36:56Oh, my God.
00:36:57Oh, my God.
00:36:58Oh, my God.
00:36:59Oh, my God.
00:37:00Oh, my God.
00:37:00Oh, my God.
00:37:01Oh, my God.
00:37:01Oh, my God.
00:37:01Gosh, I wish I was
00:37:02getting trash
00:37:03at a club right now.
00:37:03Bryn!
00:37:05How's everything going?
00:37:06Great!
00:37:07I just dropped my scissors.
00:37:09We're putting on
00:37:11the finishing touches.
00:37:12Phone call.
00:37:14I need an update
00:37:15on the Met Gala.
00:37:16Now!
00:37:17Don't worry, Mother.
00:37:18I have everything
00:37:19under control.
00:37:20That clown, Claude,
00:37:21and that fraud designer
00:37:22are going down.
00:37:26You're killing it, Vanessa.
00:37:28Your mother raised
00:37:29an amazing woman.
00:37:30Keep it up.
00:37:34There might be another
00:37:35promotion in your future.
00:37:40If I can pull this off,
00:37:42I'll go down
00:37:43in fashion history.
00:37:45Who's the brain-dead
00:37:46Netbo baby now?
00:37:47Danny.
00:38:02Danny.
00:38:03Danny.
00:38:05Wake up.
00:38:06Come on.
00:38:08Phone!
00:38:09Phone!
00:38:10Let's get you to bed.
00:38:11Phone!
00:38:11Phone!
00:38:11Phone!
00:38:11Phone!
00:38:12Phone!
00:38:12Phone!
00:38:13Phone!
00:38:13Phone!
00:38:14Phone!
00:38:14Phone!
00:38:30Good morning, superstar.
00:38:31This is it, the gown that can make or break me.
00:38:54You should be proud, Danny. It's exceptional. Just like you.
00:39:01Thanks, I... I couldn't have done it without you.
00:39:12Oh, God. I need to change what I'm wearing to meet the most famous woman in the world.
00:39:17Don't worry about it. I 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.
00:39:42Gosh, this is a freaking disaster. What am I gonna do?
00:39:46Brynn!
00:39:48That better be the best dress you've ever made.
00:39:56Let's go.
00:40:02Ready to retire early, Claude?
00:40:04We're gonna 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.
00:40:12She'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.
00:40:22Her talent speaks for itself.
00:40:24Yeah, and also says that she's a desperate, frumpy loser.
00:40:28I just have to find a way to switch mine and Danny's garment bags when no one's looking.
00:40:34It's not like Saleya would even trust that unstylish little piece of-
00:40:40The End
00:40:48Danny.
00:40:50You look stunning.
00:40:52Thanks.
00:40:56Speechless.
00:40:57Is that a first?
00:40:58Are those that-
00:41:00One of a kind Anya Winterfall couture books?
00:41:02Yes.
00:41:03I am.
00:41:04Okay, but why would my mother give you those? She wouldn't even let me near them.
00:41:08They were a gift.
00:41:10For designing her final look in her fall collection.
00:41:12What kind of Delulu reality are you living in?
00:41:15Look, I always knew you were a lazy, deadbeat intern, but taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:21That's a whole new low.
00:41:23Taking credit for another designer's work?
00:41:26Friend, I know a thing or two about that.
00:41:29Watch, he is-
00:41:30Careful now.
00:41:31You think you're some design protege, Danny?
00:41:35This?
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.
00:41:50Saleya will see you now.
00:41:52Designers only.
00:41:53For security reasons, the rest of you will have to wait in the lobby.
00:41:56Hey.
00:42:01You've got this.
00:42:02There's no way she's not gonna pick you.
00:42:08Everything is riding on this Met Gala partnership.
00:42:11Don't fuck it up.
00:42:13I won't let you down.
00:42:17Saleya is expecting you in the studio in 15 minutes.
00:42:19You two can prep your gowns and your models over here.
00:42:22Just don't touch anything.
00:42:27The dress you made?
00:42:28Is that an original Bryn Maxwell design?
00:42:31Or is it stolen?
00:42:34I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:36You 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?
00:42:46Tell me Bryn, have you ever actually picked up a sewing needle?
00:42:52That dress you designed is beautiful but very, very complicated.
00:42:59How did you manage to pull that off?
00:43:02We'll just see.
00:43:04Won't we?
00:43:05Yes, we will.
00:43:15Ugh, my gown is hideous.
00:43:18If I don't do something fast, everyone's gonna find out that I'm a total frost.
00:43:29I've just gotten a taste of fashion fame and I'm not letting Danny, that disaster, take it from me.
00:43:54Bye-bye, Danny.
00:43:56So Leia's arriving now.
00:43:57No photos, no sucking up, and no touching.
00:44:00Unless she touches you.
00:44:01Got it?
00:44:02Got it.
00:44:12So Leia, this is Bryn Maxwell.
00:44:14It's so nice to meet you.
00:44:16Where's the other one?
00:44:17She must be running a little bit late.
00:44:19I hate people who waste my time.
00:44:21I think she saw my gown and she felt inadequate.
00:44:25Let's sit down.
00:44:26Let's sit down.
00:44:29Ugh!
00:44:30Ugh!
00:44:31Ah!
00:44:32Ah!
00:44:33Ah!
00:44:35Ah!
00:44:36Ah!
00:44:37Ah!
00:44:38Ah!
00:44:40Ah!
00:44:42Ah!
00:44:44Ah!
00:44:45Bryn knocked me out and stole my dress.
00:44:48I knew she was a snake, but, I didn't realize she was psychotic.
00:44:52The sample preview is starting now, and I have nothing to show.
00:45:04Or maybe I did.
00:45:10I present to you your Met Gala look.
00:45:16Sorry, fam. It's my Pisces moon.
00:45:18This is, like, the most transcendental piece of art I've ever seen.
00:45:24I feel connected to it on, like, a cosmic level.
00:45:27I must wear this dress.
00:45:29I knew you would love it.
00:45:30But what about the other designer?
00:45:32She might.
00:45:33She's late.
00:45:34I'll give her three seconds.
00:45:35If she doesn't show up, then I've made my choice.
00:45:38Three, two, one.
00:45:40Wait!
00:45:42I'm so sorry I'm late, Soleil.
00:45:44I had a little bump in the rug.
00:45:48I suppose I can forgive you.
00:45:50Mercury is in retrograde.
00:45:54Nice gown, Brynn.
00:45:55I wish I could say the same, Dani, but...
00:45:59You are stinks.
00:46:01Gee, I wonder why that is.
00:46:04This dress is so trippy.
00:46:08My mind is seriously being open to a new dimension right now.
00:46:11Okay, but you're not, like, crying.
00:46:13I mean, like, mine is still better.
00:46:16Right?
00:46:18I wouldn't say that.
00:46:20What?
00:46:22Isn't that crazy?
00:46:23That you stole my gown and tried to sabotage me and Soleil still likes my design better?
00:46:30How much longer can you keep up this shriek?
00:46:33I must know.
00:46:35What was your inspiration?
00:46:37I was inspired by those times when someone just tries to knock you out and 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.
00:46:53I'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?
00:47:08Brynn's right.
00:47:09She should also have the chance to explain her design.
00:47:14Brynn, tell us how exactly did you craft such an exquisite gown?
00:47:20Crap, 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 Soleil, are you?
00:47:37If you want her to wear your gown at the Met Gala, doesn't she deserve to know how you made it?
00:47:45It's true.
00:47:46Soleil doesn't like gatekeepers.
00:47:48It's a simple question, Brynn.
00:47:51If you can't answer it, then, like, did you really even make the dress?
00:47:56I think the real question here is why is Dani so desperate to know my design secrets?
00:48:02Clearly, she's trying to steal my technique because she knows she doesn't measure up.
00:48:07Okay, this taped-together thing is not fashion, okay?
00:48:10It's an elementary school art project.
00:48:13Soleil, you cannot wear Dani's dress.
00:48:16I 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.
00:48:25She's right.
00:48:26It does kind of have, like, a fishy smell to it.
00:48:29It's giving, and I flopped so hard I ended up on the streets.
00:48:33Well, obviously, this is just a sample.
00:48:35The real dress would not be-
00:48:36Okay, but my sample is pristine.
00:48:39I mean, Soleil, you could put this dress on right now and walk the runway, but Dani's?
00:48:45Dani's is probably made out of disease, rat feces, and meat juice.
00:48:51Oh, God.
00:48:54You know I'm a diehard vegan.
00:48:57I've made my decision.
00:48:59The dress I've chosen to wear to the Met Gala is...
00:49:04Brin's.
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, Dani.
00:49:15But it's easier to go back to trash when...
00:49:18You are trash.
00:49:20But, you know, I do like the skirt on the trash dress better.
00:49:26Brin, can you re-sew yours so I can see what it would look like?
00:49:28Like, like, right now?
00:49:31You made this dress in 24 hours.
00:49:33Surely you can fix a skirt for an audience.
00:49:36Once Soleil sees Brin for the fraud she is, she'll have to reconsider her choice.
00:49:41Yeah.
00:49:42Brin, why don't you show us all exactly what you can do?
00:49:47Now.
00:49:50I really work better alone.
00:49:57Not 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.
00:50:07The moment my talents were finally re-recognized.
00:50:13Soleil, Hannah Summer, the editor-in-chief of Rogue Magazine, is here to see you.
00:50:17Oh my god!
00:50:18And 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 going to do a feature.
00:50:24Oh my god, she's coming up here right now.
00:50:26Wait, you're not Hannah.
00:50:33Ms. 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.
00:50:40On Anya Winter's suggestion and by the Fashion Council's orders, Danny Maxwell has been blacklisted from the industry and banned from the Met Gala for life.
00:50:54Banned? What the hell for?
00:50:56Insubordination, sabotage amounting to millions of dollars in potential losses, a general lack of personal style.
00:51:07Those 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 Soleil's personal studio, waste her precious time knowing you are hated by literally everyone in the fashion industry.
00:51:21Are you trying to tank her career?
00:51:23This is so unnecessarily toxic.
00:51:28This volatile energy is totally throwing me off.
00:51:31Get her out of here.
00:51:32Now.
00:51:37Congratulations.
00:51:38I 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 right now.
00:51:53Are you okay?
00:51:56Okay, I'd stay back if I were you.
00:51:58Unless you want to get banned from the Met Gala for life, too.
00:52:01Banned?
00:52:02By who?
00:52:03Hannah Summer herself.
00:52:06The editor-in-chief of Vogue and the chair of the Met Gala band, Danny.
00:52:10This is the best day of my life.
00:52:14Mine, too.
00:52:15Vanessa.
00:52:16I bow to you.
00:52:18Okay.
00:52:20I am the real hero here.
00:52:22I mean, Soleil's wearing my gown to the Met Gala.
00:52:26And Danny here is going to go get herself a little job at McDonald's.
00:52:29The fashion world is not going to miss you.
00:52:31I'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?
00:52:41Not everyone.
00:52:44Let's go, Danny.
00:52:45I cannot believe those idiots managed to scam the most famous woman in the world.
00:52:58If I believe it, we'll get our latest post.
00:53:01Can'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.
00:53:09Wait, that's my dress.
00:53:13That should be me on the Met Gala stage.
00:53:16Bryn and Vanessa can't get away with this.
00:53:18They're arrogant liars, dirty thieves, and they just...
00:53:21They're everything that you're not.
00:53:25You deserve to be on that stage.
00:53:28And the Danny that I know would never give up on that dream.
00:53:32I know what I have to do.
00:53:37I'm going to sneak into the Met Gala.
00:53:39Hell yes, you are.
00:53:43I'm sneaking into the Met Gala tomorrow.
00:53:45I have work to do.
00:53:46Hey, hey, hey.
00:53:48Let me handle that.
00:53:49Now, let's drink.
00:53:51Celebrate your rise back to the top.
00:53:57Well, it hasn't happened yet.
00:54:00But it will.
00:54:06You know, a whole bottle, that's a lot for you.
00:54:09Didn't I used to call you One Cup Club?
00:54:12Oh.
00:54:14You're tall, but you're quite the light.
00:54:17I'm hurt, Danny.
00:54:19And just so you know, I can handle my alcohol much, much better these days.
00:54:25You know, you were lightweight.
00:54:41Speak for yourself.
00:54:46Let's get you to bed.
00:54:47I used to wash the champagne.
00:54:50Seriously.
00:54:51My goodness.
00:54:56Wow.
00:54:56Oh, Lord.
00:54:57I was out.
00:54:59Wow.
00:55:00I suddenly feel very sober.
00:55:06Me too.
00:55:07What do you think?
00:55:31I 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.
00:55:43Marco's gonna meet you on the side entrance of the gala.
00:55:45I owe you most of my life.
00:55:49I just want to make sure my star designer gets the recognition that she deserves.
00:55:55I'll meet you there.
00:56:01Where are you going?
00:56:02I am breaking Anya Winter out of the hospital.
00:56:06When she finds out that her daughter ran you out of her fashion house and sent a fraud to the biggest event in fashion history,
00:56:12it's gonna be over for her and Brynn.
00:56:17For everything.
00:56:22I'll meet you there.
00:56:23I'll meet you there.
00:56:25Good luck.
00:56:41We'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.
00:56:54And, oh my god, Solea!
00:56:58Darling, how are you?
00:56:59Oh my god, I am freaking out right now.
00:57:02I mean, this gown!
00:57:05Oh, anyway, best dress of the night, hands 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.
00:57:20I love it.
00:57:22Well, whoever made it is insanely talented.
00:57:25You know, that's Brynn collection that you did was just like, whoa, you know?
00:57:33Yeah, I'm kind of like, a genius.
00:57:44Brynn got me a fan from the Met Gala, but I made it in.
00:57:47And soon she'll be exposed for fraud, as she is.
00:57:51How did that slut get in here?
00:57:53She's going to ruin everything.
00:57:57Champagne Brynn?
00:57:59You cannot be here.
00:58:01You competed against me to dress Solea, the biggest celebrity at the Met Gala, and you lost.
00:58:07Okay, tonight is my special night, and I cannot have you ruining it.
00:58:12I'm the one who designed Solea's dress.
00:58:14I'm the guest of honor.
00:58:16After all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into making that gown, she stole it from me and dragged my name through the mud.
00:58:23Brynn, why are you so obsessed with taking credit for my work?
00:58:27I do not have to answer.
00:58:30Face it, Dani.
00:58:31I have one 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.
00:58:41And 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?
00:58:50Fall out your feet and go,
00:58:51Oh, I'm so sorry, Dani.
00:58:52You are so smart and so talented.
00:58:56Never going to happen.
00:58:58I am rubbing elbows with the hottest, most famous people in the fashion industry, okay?
00:59:03I am wearing the gown of the Mechella, and you can't touch me now.
00:59:08And who exactly designed the gown your way?
00:59:15Certainly not you, if that's what you're implying.
00:59:20Do you know how much effort was put into making that spring collection?
00:59:24Do you know how hard those designers worked that you fired to save that show?
00:59:28You think Brynn is the one responsible for saving the day?
00:59:37Have you ever even bothered to watch her work?
00:59:40Have you ever even seen her hold a sewing needle?
00:59:42And what have you done to prove yourself?
00:59:44Sneak into the Mechella dressed as the help?
00:59:46You know, the servant suit really fits you, Dani.
00:59:52I think you, uh, found your true calling.
00:59:55Jordan, do you have so little respect for yourself that you can't see that Vanessa is just using you?
01:00:00You 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.
01:00:11What 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.
01:00:21Yeah.
01:00:23Jealousy is a disease, Dani.
01:00:26Just because you're talentless and your man upgraded doesn't mean you can take it out on us.
01:00:32You 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?
01:00:43And what's the word for stealing another designer's work and using it for clout?
01:00:55Claude.
01:00:56Did 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?
01:01:16Not as much as you're going to regret putting your daughter in charge.
01:01:19Excuse me?
01:01:20Excuse me?
01:01:22Look.
01:01:25I know you and I haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:01:29Hmm.
01:01:29But I need you to come to that Met Gala with me.
01:01:35There's something you should see.
01:01:37Bitch!
01:01:42My star designer worked her fingers to the bone to make that dress for Salaya.
01:01:47Don't you dare try to take credit for her creative genius.
01:01:50Hmm, very soft.
01:01:55But if she worked her fingers to the bone, then where are the counts's?
01:01:58Ugh!
01:01:59How dare you assault me?
01:02:02Leave.
01:02:03Now.
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.
01:02:23Grateful?
01:02:23You'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!
01:02:38I'm the one that saved that collection.
01:02:40Enough!
01:02:49God, you are so embarrassing, Danny.
01:02:52You know, breaking up with you was the best decision that I ever made.
01:02:56You didn't need the favor, really.
01:02:59Thank you so much for saving me from a lifetime of disappointment.
01:03:04Disappointment?
01:03:05If we're talking disappointment, I think it's you because you're the one covered in champagne.
01:03:12Oh my God, is there security around here?
01:03:16This disturbed employee is trying to ruin my couture!
01:03:19And she put her filthy hands on me.
01:03:23Soleil 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.
01:03:39Vanessa, what the hell have you done with my fashion house?
01:03:42Nothing, Mom. I fired Danny, just like you asked.
01:03:49You what?
01:03:57I don't understand.
01:03:58A mistake?
01:03:58A mistake?
01:04:00A mistake?
01:04:01I...
01:04:02Oh my God, Mom, are you okay?
01:04:06I...
01:04:07I...
01:04:07I just need a minute.
01:04:09Okay.
01:04:12Anya, are you okay?
01:04:14Oh, Danny.
01:04:15I'm fine.
01:04:17I...
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.
01:04:28Security, get her out of here.
01:04:29I'm okay.
01:04:32I'm fine.
01:04:33Don't touch her.
01:04:34You're making it worse.
01:04:35Don't listen to anything this worthless server has to say.
01:04:38Take my mother somewhere quieter.
01:04:41I'm fine.
01:04:42I'll be right there.
01:04:44Danny!
01:04:45Back...
01:04:46Hey, I said hands off.
01:04:47Unless you want to be cut it off, please.
01:04:50What the hell was that about?
01:04:52I know you've all been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the designer I've chosen to partner
01:05:00with.
01:05:03Bryn Maxwell, will you join me on stage?
01:05:07Oh.
01:05:08Oh my God.
01:05:09She had a poor joke malfunction.
01:05:12Bryn!
01:05:13Fuck.
01:05:13Come on.
01:05:15What the fuck happened?
01:05:16I told you not to fuck out.
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:18I...
01:05:19I'm innocent.
01:05:20What are you looking at me for?
01:05:21You're the designer of the dress.
01:05:25She wants to be a star designer, so that...
01:05:27Let's see if she has the skills to throw it off.
01:05:30Someone needs to fix this.
01:05:32Now!
01:05:34Danny, Danny.
01:05:35If that dress flirts anymore, this will be a major PR nightmare.
01:05:39I know you can do it.
01:05:40So, please, go ahead and fix the dress.
01:05:44Why would I be able to help?
01:05:46I mean, Bryn's the one that designed the dress.
01:05:48Did you fall and smack your little head on the sidewalk?
01:05:54No.
01:05:54Danny is a Nepo baby intern who knows nothing.
01:05:58And Bryn is the creative genius.
01:06:00Remember?
01:06:01Yes.
01:06:02Right?
01:06:02Right.
01:06:03I...
01:06:04I totally know what I'm doing.
01:06:06Mm-hmm.
01:06:07Danny is just a frumpy little service worker who wants to play dress-up.
01:06:11Thanks, Danny.
01:06:17I knew you were useless.
01:06:19They've got Bryn's here.
01:06:21I can do this.
01:06:23How hard can it be to fix a one-of-a-kind couture gown?
01:06:26I put my heart and soul into a dress Selaya would be proud to wear at the Metcala.
01:06:33And you built your couture house from the ground up and made so many sacrifices to hire me.
01:06:40I can't let Bryn ruin it all.
01:06:43I have to show Selaya what I can do.
01:06:46So go show them who you are.
01:06:49Prove to Selaya that you are the genius behind that dress.
01:06:51Bryn, the seams are delicate.
01:07:00The stitch has to be...
01:07:01Shut up!
01:07:02You're ruining her concentration.
01:07:04Um, are you the girl who was, like, banned from the Metcala?
01:07:07Her life?
01:07:08Yeah, she is.
01:07:09She shouldn't even be here right now.
01:07:11I shouldn't be here?
01:07:12Look at the way Bryn's folding that needle.
01:07:15How much longer can you keep up...
01:07:16Just step aside and let me...
01:07:18Oh.
01:07:19Okay, 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?
01:07:32We have a security situation.
01:07:34Party crasher on the gala floor.
01:07:35Someone named Danny Maxwell.
01:07:38Danny?
01:07:39Anya's star designer?
01:07:41I'm fine.
01:07:45I am not some delicate little flower.
01:07:48I had a heart attack, not a lobotomy.
01:07:53Hannah, darling.
01:07:57Anya, I just got word that Danny Maxwell has been banned from the gala.
01:08:02Your daughter is trying to get her kicked out.
01:08:04What?
01:08:05I said I've got it.
01:08:10Fine.
01:08:11That's the way you want it to be.
01:08:17See?
01:08:18As a true genius behind this dress, I think it's good as new.
01:08:24Shout out to my hella talented designer, Brynn Maxwell of Anya Winter Couture, for dressing
01:08:30me tonight.
01:08:31Thanks to her, I swerved a full-on wardrobe malfunction.
01:08:35Whoa!
01:08:48All of my hard work ruined by Brynn's ego.
01:08:52You know, it takes a profound lack of talents to destroy a gown so beautiful.
01:09:03Yeah, what kind of shoddy repair job is that?
01:09:06That girl is so not worthy of dressing Solea.
01:09:09Yes, I am!
01:09:11I'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
01:09:23hottest, most famous woman in the world!
01:09:26How dare you call my mother's brand washed-up!
01:09:29You're gonna pay for that!
01:09:30How?
01:09:31Are you gonna fire me like you fire 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 Brynn as your
01:09:53creative director either.
01:09:57Dude, that girl is totally crashing out right now.
01:10:00I'm calling my lawyers.
01:10:02Brynn, this is all your fault!
01:10:05Okay, if you guys all want someone to blame for this, why didn't you blame Fanny?
01:10:08Okay, I didn't even make that stupid dress!
01:10:11She did!
01:10:16I didn't, I didn't, I didn't mean, I...
01:10:20I think it's finally time to show them who you really are.
01:10:24Brynn's right.
01:10:25I designed the dress.
01:10:28And I'll prove it.
01:10:29So, Leia, will you meet me on stage?
01:10:41Don't!
01:10:42You shouldn't trust that ugly, lying bitch.
01:10:45I mean, look at her!
01:10:46She's gonna drag down your whole image.
01:10:49Image means nothing without substance, without talent.
01:10:54A true fashion genius should know that.
01:10:56Damn, that's deep.
01:10:59I agree.
01:11:00I'm pretty sure you're the one I shouldn't trust.
01:11:23Danny 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.
01:11:47Holy cow!
01:11:48This is the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.
01:11:53You're a visionary.
01:11:54And this time, everyone knows it.
01:11:58So, Leia!
01:11:59Who are you wearing?
01:12:01I'm wearing...
01:12:04Danny Maxwell.
01:12:04The classic jean couture.
01:12:11I can't be.
01:12:12Danny's the superstar designer that I've owned.
01:12:15This is what I've been trying to tell you.
01:12:17Danny is a fashion icon.
01:12:19Eww.
01:12:20You were never the fashion prodigy of my mother's couture brand.
01:12:27You were the brain-dead necro-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.
01:12:39I didn't fire her.
01:12:42I actually promoted her to creative director.
01:12:45You promoted this deadbeat and you fired my star designer?
01:12:52Yeah, 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?
01:13:07You fired her?
01:13:12So is that Maxwell along?
01:13:15Vanessa, you're fired.
01:13:18No, Mom, please, please, you can't.
01:13:20I need this.
01:13:21I'm embarrassed to even call you my daughter.
01:13:23When I turned this over to you,
01:13:25my fashion house dominated the entire world of couture.
01:13:29And now look at it.
01:13:30It's a laughingstock.
01:13:33You.
01:13:34You did this.
01:13:35Mom, I'm really sorry.
01:13:38She made me fucked up.
01:13:40How did I fucked up so bad?
01:13:45Hannah is the chair of the Met Gala.
01:13:49And 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!
01:14:26Take her away.
01:14:27No, please!
01:14:28Hand her over to the cops.
01:14:29She needs to pay for her crimes against fashion.
01:14:33No!
01:14:34Please!
01:14:34Ah!
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.
01:14:46I am begging you.
01:14:48Everything 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.
01:14:59That's not what happened.
01:15:00It 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.
01:15:07Seriously?
01:15:08Well, 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?
01:15:18Danny, I'm so sorry.
01:15:22I'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.
01:15:30Where no one's ever questioned my talent, my vision, my style.
01:15:35So please, step aside.
01:15:42This is our moment.
01:15:43When we at Claude Saint-Jean Couture wish you nothing but the best on it.
01:15:50You ruined it.
01:15:59You have ruined everything I've built.
01:16:03Hey.
01:16:03Oh.
01:16:04Ah.
01:16:04Oh, I know.
01:16:07Wow.
01:16:08Really going at you like a bunch of savages, aren't they?
01:16:10Ah, yes.
01:16:12Sorry, are you crying?
01:16:14Mm-hmm.
01:16:15God, you're hot.
01:16:17Have you ever wanted to be the face of a menswear line?
01:16:21Hell yeah.
01:16:21You 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.
01:16:34Vanessa.
01:16:35Vanessa.
01:16:37I'm too hot to be on these streets.
01:16:39Call me.
01:16:46Danny, why could I ever leave you?
01:16:50We'd have to take some red carpet pics together.
01:16:53I need all 900 million of my followers to know exactly who they've made for a dress to be.
01:16:57Give me five minutes.
01:16:58I knew you'd take back your crown.
01:17:16Thank you for believing in me.
01:17:19I always have.
01:17:20And I always will.
01:17:21Woo!
01:17:24Woo!
01:17:28Congratulations.
01:17:36You made it to the top.
01:17:39And that's where I'll stay.
01:17:40Woo!
