00:00:00If he does it, sweetheart, I got a pet house sleeping with your name on it.
00:00:07Let me go.
00:00:09Not a chance, Gray.
00:00:11We caged it, Fox.
00:00:12I got the key.
00:00:13Help!
00:00:14Help me!
00:00:22Let the ladies go.
00:00:30Shut up, janitor.
00:00:34You stick to your chores.
00:00:36I take it you never heard a snake-eye sledge.
00:00:39Does that name mean anything to you?
00:00:41I never cared much for childish names.
00:00:43Why don't we make this easy and let the lady go?
00:00:46Who the hell do you think you are?
00:00:48Break his legs.
00:00:49Both of them.
00:00:50They ain't even bleeding in the parking garage.
00:00:55Come on, sweetheart. We got plans.
00:01:00It's pretty nice.
00:01:05Who the hell are you?
00:01:23You okay?
00:01:24Don't worry.
00:01:25I'll get you to safety.
00:01:26Hey.
00:01:27You okay?
00:01:28Don't worry.
00:01:29I'll get you to safety.
00:01:30Hey.
00:01:31You're dead!
00:01:32You hear me?
00:01:33Dead!
00:01:34Dead!
00:01:35What the hell are you idiots waiting for?
00:01:36Kill him!
00:01:37You're dead!
00:01:38You hear me?
00:01:39Dead!
00:01:40What the hell are you idiots waiting for?
00:01:41Kill him!
00:01:42I'm dead!
00:01:43I'm dead!
00:01:44I'm dead!
00:01:45I'm dead!
00:01:46I'm dead!
00:01:47I'm dead!
00:01:48I'm dead!
00:01:49I'm dead!
00:01:50I'm dead!
00:01:51I'm dead!
00:01:52You hear me?
00:01:53Dead!
00:01:54What the hell are you idiots waiting for?
00:01:55Kill him!
00:01:56What the hell are you idiots waiting for?
00:01:58Kill him!
00:02:12Wait!
00:02:13It's the president of Del Cajon.
00:02:16What is she doing here?
00:02:22Don Moretti, you're needed.
00:02:24Don Moretti.
00:02:27Holy fuck!
00:02:30I am fucked!
00:02:34How many times have I told you not to bother me?
00:02:36Unless someone is dying, or we're going backwards.
00:02:39So what is it?
00:02:40The board has convened.
00:02:42They're requesting you chair the meeting.
00:02:44The board can't handle himself?
00:02:46Tell him to wait till the morning.
00:02:47I've got plans with my son.
00:02:50Sorry, sir.
00:02:51I don't think this one can wait.
00:02:55Who's she?
00:02:56It's a long story.
00:02:58Just get her home sent.
00:03:03Okay.
00:03:11And, uh, what do you want me to do with them?
00:03:17Idiots?
00:03:18Put the damn knives away.
00:03:19We're in public.
00:03:20People are going to get hurt.
00:03:20This was a total.
00:03:50What the hell was that?
00:04:13Dad?
00:04:13Babe, what are you looking at?
00:04:18Oh, nothing.
00:04:19My name is my baby.
00:04:21My seed?
00:04:22Yeah, I'll see you.
00:04:29Before the meeting, the annual report for Desert Ground Police.
00:04:32Hey, Aaron.
00:04:46Hey, were you just outside of the Desert Ground?
00:04:48Thought I just saw you.
00:04:51Oh, you must be tired, kiddo.
00:04:52I'm running errands across town.
00:04:55Don't stay out too late, okay?
00:04:57Yeah, okay, Dad.
00:04:59I'm just dropping Vanessa off.
00:05:01Oh, and by the way, I signed you up for a dating website.
00:05:05You've got a blind date tomorrow.
00:05:06What?
00:05:07A blind date?
00:05:07A blind date?
00:05:12A blind date?
00:05:15The kid's lost his mind.
00:05:17His heart's in the right place, I'm sure.
00:05:19His heart, maybe.
00:05:20But his brain is completely set to airplane mode.
00:05:26How long you plan then on hiding your identity from him?
00:05:31Promised his mother I'd look after him.
00:05:34Keep him grounded.
00:05:35Raise him right.
00:05:36Don't worry, he's too good-hoarded.
00:05:39He always sees the best in people, but never the bad.
00:05:43He's a long way from taking over for me.
00:05:47You'd really move mountains for him, wouldn't you?
00:05:49Don't remind me.
00:06:06So you're Fear of Spring.
00:06:19Minus the filter and professional lightings.
00:06:22Look, I'm not here to waste time.
00:06:25If you want to marry me, you better have a six-figure income.
00:06:28I'm sorry.
00:06:31Uh, go on.
00:06:33Yeah, my son's getting married, so he's going to need a home, um, and also a car.
00:06:40Um, something European, like a Mercedes or a Porsche.
00:06:43Oh, and I'm going to need a monthly allowance.
00:06:48Hmm, you know, for like hair, Botox, nails, designer bags.
00:06:53Yeah, I'm thinking $10,000 a month should probably come up.
00:06:58Oh, I'm sorry.
00:07:00But do you see walking ATM tattooed on my forehead?
00:07:04ATM?
00:07:05Ugh.
00:07:05What I'm giving you is practically a clearance sale.
00:07:13Don't worry.
00:07:15I'll get you the suit.
00:07:18Oh, my God.
00:07:20It's him.
00:07:22Miss Springs, can I ask you something?
00:07:26What exactly are you going to bring to this relationship?
00:07:30Me?
00:07:32Well, I'm a housewife.
00:07:35But my son is in development at Meridian Ventures, the biggest company in Nevada.
00:07:42So if you marry me, you can ride his coattails straight to retirement.
00:07:47Speaking of, what do you do for a living?
00:07:51Oh, you're going to be very disappointed.
00:07:56Whatever it takes to pay minimum wage.
00:08:02Minimum wage?
00:08:03Are you kidding me?
00:08:06Oh, do you usually do this on dates?
00:08:08Like, waste people's time?
00:08:10That's hard.
00:08:11We found him.
00:08:12The man who saved you last night.
00:08:14Michael Smith.
00:08:15He's a local.
00:08:16Would you like me to send him a thank you?
00:08:18No.
00:08:19I'll deliver it in person.
00:08:20Come on, show a little respect.
00:08:26Respect is earned with money.
00:08:29And you're broke.
00:08:32Everyone, take a look at this loser who decides to show up on a date with nothing but the clothes on his back.
00:08:41Listen, lady.
00:08:43If I'm not who you're looking for, feel free to walk through that door.
00:08:46But let's not make a scene.
00:08:48Who would want you?
00:08:49I mean, you're old.
00:08:52What woman would ever want you?
00:08:55I would.
00:08:55And who the hell are you?
00:09:00Someone who knows a real man when she sees one.
00:09:02The date's over.
00:09:03He's with me now.
00:09:08You would actually want this penniless old loser?
00:09:12I mean, you must be truly best friend.
00:09:15Shut your mouth before I shut it for you.
00:09:18Oh, so threatening.
00:09:21You don't scare me.
00:09:26How dare you hit me?
00:09:30Say another word and I'll do it again.
00:09:33You have no idea who you're messing with.
00:09:35My son is very powerful at Meridian Ventures.
00:09:40You're finished.
00:09:42Meridian Ventures.
00:09:43How interesting.
00:09:45Yeah.
00:09:46Tell him I'm waiting.
00:09:47Oh, okay.
00:09:52Hugh, get in here now.
00:09:56Your mother is being harassed.
00:10:02Who in the hell dares to put their hands on my mother?
00:10:06These two, son.
00:10:07You?
00:10:08Some washed up old man and what?
00:10:10A bitch with some nerve?
00:10:14Wait.
00:10:15You look familiar.
00:10:17Think about it real hard.
00:10:20Who am I?
00:10:27Whatever.
00:10:28You know what?
00:10:29Whoever messes with my mom,
00:10:31well,
00:10:32they bring the place.
00:10:35Stop.
00:10:35How dare you threaten the president of Meridian Ventures.
00:10:45How dare you threaten the president of Meridian Ventures.
00:10:48Is it a president?
00:10:51Yeah, that's right.
00:10:55Hugh Springs, is it?
00:10:59Consider this your official and immediate termination.
00:11:02Take your disgrace of a mother and get out of my sight.
00:11:05I don't believe we've been properly introduced, though I owe you my life.
00:11:23That bit with the poker chips was impressive.
00:11:25How did you know it was me?
00:11:27I'm the CEO and president of Meridian Ventures.
00:11:29If I want to find someone, nobody can stop me.
00:11:32No, it looks like you're missing your date.
00:11:34Do you mind if I fill in?
00:11:35Well, it wouldn't be a date if I was all alone now, would it?
00:11:41Indeed.
00:11:43What possibly makes you interested in me?
00:11:46I'm just a casino maintenance worker.
00:11:49I hardly scrape by.
00:11:51Money doesn't matter.
00:11:52I have more money than I know what to do with.
00:11:55But character, that's rare.
00:11:58I'm older than you.
00:12:00It's fine.
00:12:01I'm into it.
00:12:01How about this?
00:12:04I've got a 20-year-old son.
00:12:07A perfectly made family just waiting for the right woman to walk in?
00:12:11It's perfect.
00:12:13Anything else?
00:12:15I...
00:12:15I am out of objections.
00:12:20Great, let's get going.
00:12:21Whoa, where to?
00:12:23To get married, we're...
00:12:24We're in Vegas.
00:12:26Okay, let me just catch my breath.
00:12:31If we do this, I've got three ground rules.
00:12:38Okay, I'm missing.
00:12:39Number one, you spend your own money.
00:12:42I don't want anyone thinking that I'm a gold digger.
00:12:45Okay, I can do that.
00:12:46Second, boundaries.
00:12:48We give each other space.
00:12:50Mutual respect.
00:12:51Minimal meddling.
00:12:54And third?
00:12:59My son never had a mother.
00:13:01We're married.
00:13:02I want you to treat him like your own.
00:13:04Deal.
00:13:05I can do that.
00:13:07Now, before you find any more rules, can we get going?
00:13:09Things are moving fast.
00:13:22Speed is a new romance.
00:13:23All the kids are doing it.
00:13:25You gotta keep up with the times.
00:13:26Well, maybe I'm old-fashioned, but at least it's legally binding.
00:13:31You've got a good sense of humor, too.
00:13:33Oh, I'm full of surprises.
00:13:34Oh, that reminds me.
00:13:41I got you a little something.
00:13:43For me?
00:13:43I hope you don't have something like this already.
00:13:49Oh, my God.
00:13:50That's...
00:13:50That's beautiful.
00:13:53Do you mind if I...
00:13:54Yeah.
00:13:55Hey.
00:14:06How do I look?
00:14:08You make it look more beautiful than it ever was.
00:14:12Okay, Romeo.
00:14:13I've got some meetings to catch, but...
00:14:16See you later, okay?
00:14:16Okay.
00:14:16Sir, she's gone.
00:14:30You can close your mouth now.
00:14:32Oh, cut me some slack.
00:14:34Sophia, do you think she really knows who I am?
00:14:38Impossible.
00:14:39Your identity is buried really deep.
00:14:41Only a handful of people know the truth.
00:14:43But why would someone like her want to be with someone like me?
00:14:47I'm just a maintenance worker.
00:14:49You did save her life.
00:14:51Or maybe she sees something in you that the rest of the world doesn't.
00:14:56Yeah.
00:15:07Miss Hart.
00:15:08I came across a few things about Michael's son.
00:15:13Aaron?
00:15:13Mm-hmm.
00:15:14His fiancée works for us.
00:15:17Vanessa Cole.
00:15:18She's an intern in administration.
00:15:20She just started a month ago.
00:15:22Intern?
00:15:23Quali Char.
00:15:24Have her promoted to director of administration.
00:15:26But Miss Hart, she...
00:15:28She started three weeks ago, and she has no experience or qualifications.
00:15:33She's family now.
00:15:35My family.
00:15:36We'll help her.
00:15:37Run to her.
00:15:37She'll go on to the wrong.
00:15:48Is that Michael?
00:15:53Hello, Tip.
00:15:54You made it.
00:15:55Girl, you booked Desert Crown for your birthday?
00:15:58My Instagram's about to explode.
00:16:01Aaron must have maxed out every credit card he owns.
00:16:04Maybe sold a kidney, too.
00:16:05Anything for my girl.
00:16:08Thank you, sweetie.
00:16:11Oh, my God, it's Fred and Reed.
00:16:27Sorry, I'm late.
00:16:28We couldn't have booked this lounge without you.
00:16:32You know, money doesn't go all the way.
00:16:35Say thank you.
00:16:37Thanks, Brandon.
00:16:39Don't thank me.
00:16:40Thank the family now.
00:16:41Oh, and my father is actually going to swing by later, so don't get all weird about it, you know.
00:16:48He hates ass kissers or suckers.
00:16:51I'll thank him personally.
00:16:53I think Brandon's got it all.
00:16:57Connections, talent.
00:16:59Look, and he's the youngest manager at Meridian Ventures.
00:17:02Like, how?
00:17:03Well, I can tell you a story.
00:17:05These quarterly numbers are looking solid.
00:17:08I am happy with your contribution.
00:17:10Thank you, sir.
00:17:11Thank you, Dad.
00:17:12One more thing.
00:17:13I want to expand our charitable foundation.
00:17:16Starting next quarter, dedicating 5% annual revenue.
00:17:21Dad?
00:17:25Dad?
00:17:26Aaron, your dad is here?
00:17:29Wait, that's your dad?
00:17:31What's he do, exactly?
00:17:33Ladies and gentlemen, the valet parking is just around the corner.
00:17:42I can show you.
00:17:43No, we'll find our own way.
00:17:47Dad, what are you doing here?
00:17:51Picking up some temp work.
00:17:52They needed a few extra hands for a convention.
00:17:56200 bucks a day, cash.
00:18:03Hey, Vanessa.
00:18:06Happy birthday, sweetheart.
00:18:08Thanks.
00:18:09200 bucks a day.
00:18:11Jesus!
00:18:15So, what are you kids doing here?
00:18:20It's Vanessa's birthday.
00:18:22We're celebrating.
00:18:23In this place?
00:18:25Seems a bit expensive.
00:18:27Dad, it's fine.
00:18:28Really.
00:18:29Okay, I'll just let you guys go.
00:18:31See you later.
00:18:32Hold up!
00:18:33Valet boy.
00:18:38Park my car.
00:18:44Are you talking to me?
00:18:46Yeah, you.
00:18:48And be careful with it.
00:18:49Okay, you put a scratch on my ride,
00:18:51and I'll have you paying me back with organs.
00:18:55Brandon, what the hell, man?
00:18:56That's my dad.
00:18:57So?
00:18:57He works here, doesn't he?
00:18:59Staff, park, cars.
00:19:01That's how it works.
00:19:02There.
00:19:07Now it's a paid service.
00:19:09Do you still feel disrespected?
00:19:13It's easy money.
00:19:26Thanks for the tip.
00:19:27Dad.
00:19:28Oh, and after you've parked the car, stop by our private room, okay?
00:19:37We'll need someone to pour our drinks, right, guys?
00:19:40Absolutely.
00:19:40That's enough, Brandon.
00:19:44What's the problem?
00:19:45I mean, I'm doing your family a favor.
00:19:47Seems like your family could use a bit of extra money.
00:19:50Brandon, you fuck...
00:19:51Easy, son.
00:19:52It's okay.
00:19:54It's okay.
00:19:56Oh, my God.
00:19:57This is crazy.
00:20:04I'm gonna...
00:20:06Go to the party.
00:20:07Aaron, sweetie.
00:20:13Could you maybe tell your dad not to mention he works here?
00:20:15I don't want him entering my party with, like, a broom or something.
00:20:17That would be...
00:20:18How embarrassing.
00:20:19Wait up for me!
00:20:23Ah!
00:20:25I'm here.
00:20:26I know.
00:20:27I'm so excited.
00:20:28Go for it, son.
00:20:29Thanks, Dad.
00:20:29Hey, it's my shift.
00:20:39Thank you, everyone, for coming.
00:20:42And thank you to my amazing fiancé, Aaron.
00:20:44He's the reason for this whole party.
00:20:50Stop it, guys.
00:20:51Stop it.
00:20:53Anything for you, Vanessa.
00:20:58Oh, yes.
00:21:00Just one moment.
00:21:02Van, it's the head of HR.
00:21:04It's for you.
00:21:04Okay.
00:21:06Is everything okay?
00:21:09Congratulations, Vanessa Cole.
00:21:10Effective immediately, you're being promoted to director of administration.
00:21:14Base salary, two million, plus a corner office.
00:21:17Oh, me?
00:21:18Me, director?
00:21:19Van, that's incredible.
00:21:20Two million?
00:21:21You've made it.
00:21:22President Hart must really see something special in you.
00:21:24Your future's set.
00:21:26Hell, even I'm jealous.
00:21:28We're at Inventures.
00:21:31That's everyone's company.
00:21:35I'm sorry.
00:21:36I need a moment.
00:21:37It's all so sudden.
00:21:38Wait.
00:21:39Is this for real?
00:21:40I mean, you just started as an intern, what?
00:21:42Three weeks ago?
00:21:43How can somebody jump straight to director?
00:21:44What's that supposed to mean, huh?
00:21:48What?
00:21:48You think she can't do it?
00:21:50She's not enough?
00:21:51Sounds like Dorothy and me.
00:21:54No, no, no, no.
00:21:55She's my fiance.
00:21:56Of course I want her to succeed.
00:21:57But this?
00:21:58This doesn't make any sense.
00:22:00What?
00:22:01You don't think I deserve it?
00:22:04What?
00:22:04You don't think I deserve it?
00:22:05No, Vanessa, that's not what I...
00:22:06Don't even talk to me.
00:22:08Enough of this drama.
00:22:10Hey, you.
00:22:11Over here.
00:22:13Yes.
00:22:14You.
00:22:15Over here.
00:22:15Here, boy.
00:22:17Can't whistle, but just get here.
00:22:18Okay, so...
00:22:19This is champagne.
00:22:21It's from France.
00:22:23That's a country across many oceans.
00:22:26Water.
00:22:26Have you heard of it?
00:22:27So it's very expensive.
00:22:28But, you know, I'm feeling quite generous, so what I'll do is I'll give you this glass
00:22:39of expensive champagne if you raise a toast to our beautiful friend, Vanessa, and tell
00:22:44everyone just how wrong Aaron is about her.
00:22:47Brandon, what the hell, dude?
00:22:48Leave my dad out of this.
00:22:50Why?
00:22:50I'm doing him a favor.
00:22:52I mean, how else would he be able to afford such fine spirits?
00:22:56Mmm, you want it?
00:22:57What's the problem, Aaron?
00:22:59You don't want someone to say something nice about me?
00:23:01Vanessa, how could you say that?
00:23:03My dad has nothing to do with this.
00:23:04Leave him out of it.
00:23:05I just got director.
00:23:08Is that not a cause for celebration?
00:23:15Hello?
00:23:16Michael, where are you?
00:23:19I'm a bit, uh...
00:23:20He's busy toasting the birthday girl, Vanessa.
00:23:26Vanessa?
00:23:27Is this your daughter-in-law?
00:23:29No, no, no, sorry.
00:23:30No, not daughter-in-law.
00:23:31No, I would never marry into the family, you old hag.
00:23:38Old hag?
00:23:41Claire, has the promotion letter been delivered?
00:23:43It should have arrived.
00:23:44Great.
00:23:45Prepare the gifts.
00:23:46I'm going there myself.
00:23:51Vanessa, are...
00:23:52Are you saying you won't marry me?
00:23:54Yes.
00:23:55Yes, you heard that right.
00:23:56We're done.
00:23:56It's over.
00:23:56But, but, but why?
00:23:59Excuse me.
00:24:01Is there a Miss Vanessa Cole here?
00:24:03Me?
00:24:04That's me.
00:24:05Your official promotion letter from the Inventions.
00:24:07Oh, my God.
00:24:08Congratulations.
00:24:09Thanks.
00:24:15Aaron, you want to desperately know why, I'll tell you.
00:24:18Can you see this?
00:24:20I did this on my own.
00:24:22By myself.
00:24:23President Evelyn Hart.
00:24:26She saw my achievements.
00:24:28She saw what I could do.
00:24:31I went from intern to director in, in no time, at a trillion, trillion dollar company.
00:24:38What have you accomplished?
00:24:40Nothing.
00:24:41What, so, so I'm not good enough for you anymore?
00:24:43Basically.
00:24:44Dude, face it.
00:24:45She's moved up.
00:24:46She's out of your league.
00:24:47She's on another level.
00:24:48Whatever you need to understand it.
00:24:51And after today, Vanessa's headed to the penthouse.
00:24:54While you'll still be crawling in the gutter.
00:24:56Five years together, Vanessa.
00:25:03All erased by some piece of paper.
00:25:05Okay, listen, listen.
00:25:07I need just somebody who can stand by me, not bring me down.
00:25:11Um, think of it like this.
00:25:12You're a liability.
00:25:14Yes, not an asset.
00:25:16Oh, fine.
00:25:17I get it now.
00:25:18It's all my fault for just aiming out of my league, huh?
00:25:25Old leg, huh?
00:25:26Let's see what makes them think that you disrespect me.
00:25:28Son, sometimes it's better to see someone's true colors rather sooner than later.
00:25:45It's never easy, though.
00:25:47Yeah, Dad, you're right.
00:25:48I just, I just hate myself for being so blind, for not seeing who she really was.
00:25:57There's no need for hate.
00:25:58All we can do is learn from our mistakes and do better next time.
00:26:02Lord knows I've made plenty of mistakes.
00:26:06How do you think the old man got where he is today?
00:26:10Yeah, Dad, I get it.
00:26:12Can we just go now?
00:26:14Yeah.
00:26:16Whoa, hold on, go.
00:26:18You think you can leave that easy?
00:26:20Yes, hold on a minute.
00:26:21I mean, what's the rush?
00:26:23What else could you possibly want from us?
00:26:25An apology?
00:26:26An apology? You embarrass me in front of everyone.
00:26:29You question my promotion in front of everyone.
00:26:33Why don't we just step back and cool off a bit?
00:26:39Cool off?
00:26:40Dad.
00:26:41Cool off.
00:26:42I'm going to make this very simple for you.
00:26:45You leave when I say so.
00:26:51When Vanessa gives you an order, you follow it.
00:26:54Unless you want me to break your legs.
00:26:58Why don't you calm down before you do something you'll regret.
00:27:02Regret?
00:27:04Please.
00:27:07Dad, let me handle this.
00:27:09Vanessa?
00:27:11Vanessa?
00:27:14Director Vanessa?
00:27:15There you go.
00:27:17I'm sorry.
00:27:19I shouldn't have questioned you.
00:27:21You clearly earned this position.
00:27:23You deserve it.
00:27:24I did.
00:27:24And I hope you're happy with your new life.
00:27:31Yay.
00:27:32I got it, Dad.
00:27:41We're in this together, son.
00:27:45Daddy didn't raise no fool.
00:27:46Wouldn't let her date a boy.
00:27:48Telly taught her how to shoot.
00:27:50Daddy didn't play no games.
00:27:53Wouldn't let her trade her name for a fake adieu.
00:27:57Boy, you better know what you're getting into.
00:28:00Can we go now?
00:28:11What a boy!
00:28:13Now, here's your reward!
00:28:27Why don't you take it?
00:28:29Peck, crawl out like the dogs you are!
00:28:47Crawl like dogs?
00:28:52You've got some nerve.
00:28:55You've got some nerve.
00:28:57President Hart, this is all just a big misunderstanding.
00:29:04These two, they, uh, they, uh, they snuck in to the event.
00:29:07I'm throwing them out there.
00:29:09I might have been a big team.
00:29:09Do you think I'm blind?
00:29:14I'll deal with you later.
00:29:16Read it.
00:29:18This isn't right.
00:29:19Something's off.
00:29:21One villa at the Desert Crown Resort.
00:29:25One limited edition Maserati.
00:29:27And ten luxury items, including the Tech Philippe, Rolex, and Hermes Pieces.
00:29:40And a check for $10 million.
00:29:46What the hell?
00:29:50Oh my God.
00:29:50Van, this has to be for you.
00:29:52For me?
00:29:54Think about it.
00:29:55I mean, you went from intern to director in one day.
00:29:58I mean, she obviously sees something special in you.
00:30:01And she came here to personally congratulate you.
00:30:03Oh, I didn't really think so.
00:30:07Hi, she's coming.
00:30:08Oh, I don't deserve this honor.
00:30:15Wait, those aren't for Vanessa?
00:30:17What?
00:30:19Aaron Smith, this is for you.
00:30:28For me?
00:30:29No, this can't be true.
00:30:33Give me that.
00:30:34Hi, President Hart.
00:30:36I think you had a mistake.
00:30:37You can understand.
00:30:38I am the one you value.
00:30:39I am the one that you made director.
00:30:40And Aaron, you see, he's just a nobody.
00:30:44I know.
00:30:47You think you're worthy of these gifts?
00:30:49You're not even worthy of the paper this is printed on.
00:30:53No.
00:30:53No.
00:30:54No.
00:30:56Oh my God.
00:30:58No.
00:30:58What's happening?
00:31:03Aaron, it's so wonderful to finally meet you.
00:31:07I wasn't sure what you'd like, so I just got you a little bit of everything.
00:31:11I hope that's okay.
00:31:15You and I, we've never met before.
00:31:18Why are you giving me all these things?
00:31:21Michael, you haven't mentioned me yet?
00:31:24I haven't found the right moment yet.
00:31:27I'm sorry.
00:31:29What exactly is your relationship with these two losers?
00:31:31Oh, you want to know?
00:31:37Do the words old hag ring any bells?
00:31:40What?
00:31:41What?
00:31:44Michael, I imagine this is as good a time as any to let the boy know.
00:31:48Ted, what's going on?
00:31:49Son, I'd like you to meet somebody.
00:31:53This is Evelyn Hart.
00:31:55My wife.
00:31:56Wife?
00:31:57It's true.
00:31:59Although I, once we get to know each other better, I'd prefer you call me more.
00:32:02But, Mom?
00:32:03Dad, what the fuck?
00:32:05Yeah, you've been on my case all these years about finding somebody.
00:32:08Well, I did.
00:32:10What have I done?
00:32:13Seems like nobody here thinks I got any game.
00:32:16Don't worry about it, babe.
00:32:17I know what I got.
00:32:23Eve, uh...
00:32:24These gifts, uh...
00:32:26They're too much.
00:32:27You should take them back.
00:32:29These are nothing.
00:32:30They're tokens.
00:32:31We had an agreement.
00:32:34Fine.
00:32:35Aaron can decide.
00:32:37Whether you keep them or not, that's up to you.
00:32:39Look, I appreciate your generosity.
00:32:50I do.
00:32:51But, I'm young.
00:32:53And, I'm capable.
00:32:56I'd rather earn these things than have them handed to me.
00:33:05I can't breathe.
00:33:07I can't breathe.
00:33:07Van, had you not broken up with him, you would have been the daughter-in-law of President Hart.
00:33:13And, you could have ran Marady Inventures one day.
00:33:15Oh, that's really helpful.
00:33:18I had my whole future set and planned and I just ruined it like an idiot.
00:33:22Maybe not.
00:33:23It's okay.
00:33:24Aaron still has feelings for you.
00:33:25I can tell.
00:33:27Maybe you can get him back.
00:33:29After everything I said, after everything I've done.
00:33:31Who cares about pride?
00:33:33Okay?
00:33:34All you have to do is think about the life that you want.
00:33:36All you have to imagine is wearing your Chanel earrings and carrying the latest Hermes bag to your new Maserati.
00:33:42Maserati.
00:33:43Move.
00:33:46Aaron.
00:33:49Aaron, can we talk?
00:33:51About what?
00:33:52We have been together for five years.
00:33:54That has to mean something, right?
00:33:56Listen, I messed up.
00:33:57I know that.
00:33:57But, can't you forgive me?
00:34:00He is so easy.
00:34:06Always has been.
00:34:08You humiliated me today, Aaron.
00:34:10I'll make sure you pay for that later.
00:34:12Get your dirty hands off me.
00:34:15Aaron, you...
00:34:17Aaron, you...
00:34:19I gave you five years of my life.
00:34:22And the second you got a taste of power, you tossed me aside like garbage.
00:34:27You even insulted my father to his face.
00:34:31Wow.
00:34:32You really thought I'd take you back.
00:34:34I apologized when I was supposed to do.
00:34:36Honestly, Vanessa.
00:34:38I liked you better when you were arrogant.
00:34:41At least then you were being honest about who you really are.
00:34:43Please, we can fix this.
00:34:44I'll be so much better, I promise.
00:34:47We can...
00:34:47Start over?
00:34:48Yeah, yes.
00:34:49Not a chance.
00:34:51I'm not following you up whatever ladder you think you're climbing.
00:34:54So, so what?
00:34:55You're just gonna let me be damaged?
00:34:58You dug your own grave.
00:35:00Don't blame anyone else.
00:35:05I'm proud of you, son.
00:35:07There's more and better things for you out there.
00:35:10One day you'll find out what you deserve.
00:35:11If she wasn't worth your time.
00:35:14Wasn't worth his time?
00:35:18That'll be...
00:35:18You will never be associated with my company ever again.
00:35:25And Brandon, you're fired too.
00:35:29Fine.
00:35:30You think I really care about that job?
00:35:32What are we gonna do?
00:35:34Relax.
00:35:35You've still got me.
00:35:37What?
00:35:37In fact, I think it's about time you learned who I really was.
00:35:43My father is Anthony Reed.
00:35:47He's the senior VP at Desert Crown.
00:35:52What?
00:35:52If that's true, why were you working at Meridian Ventures?
00:35:59For her.
00:36:00Me?
00:36:01Honestly, Vanessa.
00:36:03Meridian is not worth your time.
00:36:05I mean, one word from me and...
00:36:07You are in like that with Desert Crown.
00:36:09You got better pay, better position, better everything.
00:36:12Are you serious?
00:36:13Would I lie to you?
00:36:14Then I need some help with these two losers.
00:36:19And that bitch.
00:36:21She slapped me twice and it hurt.
00:36:23So pay back.
00:36:24Double.
00:36:25Consider it done.
00:36:26I've actually already made the call.
00:36:29We've got a special guest coming.
00:36:31The Terror of the Strip.
00:36:33Jade Torres!
00:36:35Jade Torres?
00:36:36As in, the woman who killed 12 men with her own weapons?
00:36:40You don't mean the right hand of Sludge himself?
00:36:43Snake Eyes?
00:36:44I called in a favor.
00:36:46I told her we needed some backup.
00:36:47Trust me, it was not easy to manage.
00:36:50Jade Torres?
00:36:51She's a big threat.
00:37:01She's more than a threat.
00:37:03They say Snake Eyes has order over all of Nevada because of her alone.
00:37:07She has a ruthless reputation.
00:37:08We have to be ready.
00:37:09Get all of our security in here.
00:37:10Now.
00:37:12Oh my god, they're already shaking.
00:37:15Listen, you want payback?
00:37:16Fine.
00:37:17You settle it with me.
00:37:18Leave my father and Evelyn out of this.
00:37:21Oh gosh.
00:37:22Ignore them, Vanessa.
00:37:24Jade will be here any minute.
00:37:26And then they'll learn what happens when you go out of your league.
00:37:30Oh, my hero.
00:37:32Oh, and you'll show me just how grateful you are later.
00:37:35You honestly think one phone call is going to win this for you?
00:37:39And why wouldn't it?
00:37:40Because not even Snake Eyes would dare to talk to me the way you are right now.
00:37:47Who the hell left that?
00:37:51Oh, Jane.
00:37:59Jane, you're here.
00:38:01Thank God you're here.
00:38:02We have a bit of a situation that requires your...
00:38:07expertise.
00:38:08Well, lucky me.
00:38:10Because I was having a slow night.
00:38:12And then you called about a nobody with the nerve to disrespect my boss.
00:38:18Oh, I wouldn't miss that for the world.
00:38:22You did this to yourself, old man.
00:38:24Running your mouth about things you don't understand.
00:38:27Make them hurt.
00:38:29Show them what happens when you disrespect a legend.
00:38:33And those two, they're with him.
00:38:36Good.
00:38:37Then they can all bleed together.
00:38:40Eve.
00:38:41Aaron.
00:38:41This is about to get messy.
00:38:43Please both, sneak out the back while you have a chance.
00:38:45I'm not leaving you, Dad.
00:38:49You're my husband, Michael.
00:38:50I'm not leaving.
00:38:52Not while I'm still breathing.
00:38:54How touching.
00:38:56The happy little family.
00:38:57Well, too bad Evelyn is just some businesswoman who likes to play dress up.
00:39:01What are you going to do against Jade?
00:39:03File a lawsuit?
00:39:04I'm going to make this simple.
00:39:07Whatever you want.
00:39:08Name your price.
00:39:09Money.
00:39:10Connections.
00:39:11Favors.
00:39:12Just leave my family out of it.
00:39:14And you'll have it all.
00:39:17Just leave my family out of it.
00:39:19And you'll have it all.
00:39:21Eve.
00:39:23Oh, what's this?
00:39:24The great Evelyn Hart begging for mercy?
00:39:28Yeah, that's right.
00:39:29So let's talk business.
00:39:31What'll it be?
00:39:33Name it.
00:39:33I'll pay it.
00:39:35Tempting.
00:39:36You know, under different circumstances, I would probably consider that, but I'm afraid not this time.
00:39:44What do you mean?
00:39:45This man blatantly disrespected my boss.
00:39:49And that is an action that cannot be excused.
00:39:54Please, he didn't mean anything by it.
00:39:55Just tell me what it'll take.
00:39:57You really don't get it, do you?
00:39:59Some debts can pay the cash.
00:40:01Richard Sledge is the only person in the world I respect.
00:40:05I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I let this slide.
00:40:09Evelyn, there's no need to beg on my behalf.
00:40:13I've got one question.
00:40:14What does your boss think you're doing here right now?
00:40:16How dare you mention him?
00:40:17What does Richard Sledge think is happening in this room right now?
00:40:21Oh, since when does Snake Eyes need to give permission to Jade Taurus to handle trash like you?
00:40:28I'll give you one more chance.
00:40:29Call him before things get worse.
00:40:32Now, don't listen to him.
00:40:35He's stalling.
00:40:36My boss doesn't have time for small-time garbage like you.
00:40:41Trust me.
00:40:42I'm doing him a favor by getting rid of you right here, right now.
00:40:48Oh, really?
00:40:50So why would Richard Sledge dare to come out here and face me?
00:40:55And when did he just let his people just run wild without consequences?
00:40:59Dad.
00:41:02Richard Sledge, three minutes.
00:41:06If he's late, anyone bearing the name Sledge will be banned within 100 miles of the strip forever.
00:41:18Madam Marlowe, what are the chances?
00:44:33My subordinates, they're going to be dealt with however you see fit.
00:44:37I think you should teach your people some restraint.
00:44:41Sir, what are you...
00:44:45Enough!
00:44:47In this organization, honor comes first.
00:44:51Always.
00:44:52You think you could throw my name around like some sort of weapon?
00:44:55Intimidate whoever you want?
00:44:56If I ever hear about anything like this happen ever again, you're going to wish the only
00:45:02thing I did was fire you.
00:45:04But since when do we...
00:45:06Since I said so, and when I say it's law...
00:45:13The rest of you, put your damn weapons down, now!
00:45:18Mrs. Hart.
00:45:24About that other night, that was a misunderstanding.
00:45:27And that was on me completely.
00:45:28I'm hoping that you will accept my apology.
00:45:33You're apologizing to me?
00:45:35Exactly.
00:45:35Well, he shouldn't be, should he?
00:45:41I offer my sincerest apology.
00:45:46Fine.
00:45:47Apology accepted.
00:45:48Mr. Sledge, what the hell are you doing?
00:45:53This is some random businesswoman, and he...
00:45:56He is a nobody, okay?
00:45:58He's nothing but a damn freeloader.
00:46:00You should be putting them in their place, not just...
00:46:02No, putting them...
00:46:03Freeloader?
00:46:07Are you okay?
00:46:10Sir, my father.
00:46:12You and two go way back.
00:46:13You can't...
00:46:14God, why has got you so spooked?
00:46:16I know these people.
00:46:17They're nobodies.
00:46:17They don't even have connections.
00:46:19No connections?
00:46:21You open your mouth again.
00:46:22I'll have you dragged out of here.
00:46:24Okay.
00:46:27Now.
00:46:28Your turn.
00:46:30Apologize, Mr. Smith.
00:46:31Now.
00:46:32Sir, what are you doing?
00:46:33Are you deaf?
00:46:34Get on your knees and apologize.
00:46:40I'm sorry.
00:46:41That's enough.
00:46:48Dad, you're here.
00:46:58Thank God.
00:46:59That's enough, Richard.
00:47:01Mr. Sledge has lost his mind.
00:47:03He's reading up Brandon and making him apologize to these people.
00:47:06I can see that.
00:47:07Release my son now, Richard.
00:47:09Anthony, perfect timing.
00:47:19Your son needs a lesson in respect.
00:47:21He's gone too far this time.
00:47:23My son is my business, but not yours.
00:47:27You would do well remembering your place.
00:47:30You understand me?
00:47:32If I hadn't stepped in, he might not have survived.
00:47:35Survived?
00:47:37Survived.
00:47:37You nearly were trying to kill him.
00:47:42Your son picked a fight with the wrong man.
00:47:45And if I hadn't stepped in, you'd both be dead by now.
00:47:48The wrong man?
00:47:50Who's that exactly?
00:48:00But this guy, him.
00:48:03Richard is scared.
00:48:05Who the hell is this guy?
00:48:07Well, sir, can I ask you something?
00:48:12What exactly did my son do?
00:48:14He threatened to kill someone over basically nothing.
00:48:18You better get them under control before it's too late.
00:48:21I know these people.
00:48:23They're nobodies.
00:48:23They're just ordinary.
00:48:25Exactly.
00:48:26You heard them, Richard?
00:48:28You humiliated my son for some nobody.
00:48:33Believe what you want, but I warned you.
00:48:35You better have a damn good excuse for this.
00:48:38Gentlemen, this whole situation was started because of Brandon's behavior.
00:48:42As a Desert Crown executive, I'm sure that you value conflict resolution.
00:48:45I'm sure that we can find some way to amend.
00:48:49The Ocean Heart.
00:48:51Wait, how is that possible?
00:48:56Excuse me, Ocean Heart?
00:48:58Yes.
00:48:58What, this?
00:48:59Yes, that.
00:49:00The Ocean Heart.
00:49:02Desert Crown spent $250 million acquiring it.
00:49:06And it was supposed to be handed off to Don Moretti himself.
00:49:10Mr. Reed, I'm sure there's been some sort of mistake.
00:49:12No, there's no mistake, miss.
00:49:15I was there when the auction happened.
00:49:17I saw it with my own eyes.
00:49:19How did this piece come to be in your possession?
00:49:21Who gave it to you?
00:49:24Michael gave it to me.
00:49:26Michael gave it to you.
00:49:27Bullshit!
00:49:30How could a tribute that's meant to be handed over to Don Moretti end up in possession of someone like you?
00:49:35Because someone I knew gave it to me.
00:49:38It's no big deal.
00:49:39Oh, it's no big deal.
00:49:41Did you hear it?
00:49:41That necklace is worth over $250 billion.
00:49:45Lots of money.
00:49:46And you're calling it no big deal?
00:49:48Son, so you're telling me that someone just gave you this necklace?
00:49:51Please don't go and tell me that Sophia Marlowe handed it to you.
00:49:54The president of Desert Crown Holdings.
00:49:58Actually, that's true.
00:50:02Sophia did indeed give it to me.
00:50:06This guy is at the bottom of the food chain.
00:50:09He's a temp worker.
00:50:11How could a nobody like him meet any president?
00:50:14Son, it's Connor.
00:50:16He stole it.
00:50:17I know this only.
00:50:17I've known them for five years.
00:50:18They are nobodies.
00:50:19There is no way that thing is legitimate.
00:50:22This is a joke.
00:50:23Interesting theory, though.
00:50:24I must say.
00:50:26I mean, it would take big balls to steal from a Desert Crown estate.
00:50:32You know, I've been told, in the word of mouth, that poor people sometimes are honest.
00:50:37I'd be crazy.
00:50:38They stole something that valuable.
00:50:39I mean, I'm so sad.
00:50:42That's enough.
00:50:43My father isn't a thief.
00:50:45Oh, my God.
00:50:46I'm so glad I broke up with you.
00:50:47Jesus, I would be stuck in this train wreck.
00:50:50Stealing from Desert Crown?
00:50:51You two?
00:50:53Finished.
00:50:54I trust Michael completely.
00:50:56I'm sure there's some sort of explanation for this.
00:50:58Michael, do you care to clarify?
00:51:00Clarify?
00:51:01There's nothing to clarify.
00:51:03It was a gift.
00:51:03Oh, okay.
00:51:06Oh, it was a gift.
00:51:07It was a gift.
00:51:08What are you going to say next?
00:51:09You're Don Moretti himself?
00:51:10Oh, Don Moretti himself.
00:51:12Stranger things have happened.
00:51:18Unbelievable!
00:51:19First, he steals the ocean hard.
00:51:22Then, he has the nerve to claim he's Don Moretti.
00:51:25Have you lost your mind, old man?
00:51:28Impersonating the Don in front of Anthony?
00:51:30Mind you, a senior executive at Desert Crown?
00:51:33What, are you signing a death?
00:51:35Shut up, you.
00:51:39The Dons have been in the shadows for years.
00:51:41We don't just give low-life losers the right to use his name.
00:51:45You know I was willing to overlook how disrespectful you were earlier.
00:51:53Michael.
00:52:05Now.
00:52:15President Hart.
00:52:40President Hart.
00:52:41Perfect timing.
00:52:43Stand your ground.
00:52:43Evelyn, what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:52:47You're protecting the thief?
00:52:48I'm protecting an innocent man from a witch hunt.
00:52:51He's in the possession of stolen...
00:52:53Stolen!
00:52:54You're making accusations without a shred of proof.
00:52:57The proof you're wearing around your neck.
00:52:59So that's how it is.
00:53:01You want to go to war with Desert Crown holdings.
00:53:07You're really going to war with Desert Crown?
00:53:10Tell me, Evelyn, are you stupid or just completely brainless?
00:53:13Oh, Brandon, let's be fair.
00:53:16I mean, if she wasn't smart, she wouldn't be able to build more adventures.
00:53:20My guess?
00:53:21She's desert for a man.
00:53:23You ready to go up against Desert Crown for me?
00:53:32For a husband and wife.
00:53:34We rise together.
00:53:35We fall together.
00:53:37Besides, I know you didn't do the thing they're accusing you of.
00:53:40Can we just talk about this for a second?
00:53:47Richard, stay out of this.
00:53:50We still have a score to settle.
00:53:51You're accusing Mr. Smith of stealing the ocean heart.
00:53:54Where's your proof?
00:53:55My proof?
00:53:56It's obvious.
00:53:59Oh, you think I'm framing him.
00:54:02I'm saying there's one person that knows the truth.
00:54:04Why don't we call her?
00:54:06I mean, President Marlowe.
00:54:08Zack, let her settle us.
00:54:12If Sophia shows up and I've recovered the ocean heart, she'll owe me.
00:54:17Maybe even take him to meet the dog himself.
00:54:19What could Anthony Reed possibly want from me?
00:54:28President Marlowe, Mr. Reed is confronting the dawn.
00:54:31He's starting to kill him.
00:54:32What?
00:54:33Let's go.
00:54:34Now.
00:54:35I can't wait.
00:54:37The President Marlowe walks through those doors and none of you, none of you are walking
00:54:41out of here, especially Evelyn.
00:54:44You're a little small time, small time company, Meridian Ventures.
00:54:48Challenging Desert Crown Holdings.
00:54:51You're going to regret this for the rest of your goddamn life.
00:54:55I won't regret a thing.
00:54:56Anthony, you're the one that's going to live with regrets.
00:54:59You better start thinking about what you're going to say when Sophia gets here.
00:55:02Do you ever shut up?
00:55:04You just don't quit, do you?
00:55:06Dad, let's stop wasting time.
00:55:08Just let me break this old man's knees and have him crawl out like the dog he is.
00:55:13I'll show you what happens when you go up against Desert Crown Holdings.
00:55:18L.L.C.
00:55:19Patience, son.
00:55:20Audience, with the President's opportunity.
00:55:23You're fake, Michael.
00:55:24You're stupidity.
00:55:26You're not just destroying yourself.
00:55:29You're destroying your little mistress there, too.
00:55:32And your entire company.
00:55:34You're taking everyone down with you to the grave.
00:55:36Anthony.
00:55:37You're the one that's going to be ruined.
00:55:48I'm so glad you're here.
00:55:49President Marlowe, please forgive my boldness of bringing you here, but I have something
00:55:52extremely important to report to you.
00:55:54Do tell.
00:55:55This man, Michael Smith, stole the Ocean Heart.
00:55:59I was going to arrest myself and bring him straight to you and the Don for judgment.
00:56:03You're accusing him of death?
00:56:06Absolutely certain.
00:56:06He's a thief.
00:56:07Your accusation means nothing.
00:56:10If the President's standing right here, your lies will not save you this time.
00:56:14Besides, we have witnesses.
00:56:16No?
00:56:17Who?
00:56:18Me?
00:56:19Hi.
00:56:19Nice to meet you.
00:56:20President Marlowe, I can testify.
00:56:22Michael stole the Ocean Heart.
00:56:24He's very shady.
00:56:26Yes.
00:56:27We can back that up.
00:56:29It's true.
00:56:30This man has zero respect for desert power.
00:56:33You need to make an example out of him.
00:56:35You're all delusional.
00:56:36My father wouldn't steal anything.
00:56:38Easy, son.
00:56:39The truth doesn't change just because they wanted to.
00:56:42President Marlowe, I trust Michael completely.
00:56:44I hope that you'll handle this properly and not be manipulated by these low lies.
00:56:50I know the exact truth.
00:56:53What would you say if I told you?
00:56:56I gave it to him.
00:56:58What?
00:56:59What?
00:56:59What?
00:57:01What?
00:57:02Wait, how is that possible?
00:57:04Everyone out.
00:57:06Now.
00:57:10Wait a second.
00:57:10What is going on?
00:57:13President Marlowe.
00:57:20Killing it fine, don't you?
00:57:22Classic.
00:57:23You know.
00:57:24Is he even the President taking his time?
00:57:26What's going on?
00:57:27If the President of Desert Crown Holdings gave him the ocean crown person.
00:57:34Oh my God.
00:57:35What if he's the Don?
00:57:36Oh my God, he's the Don.
00:57:37If he was the Don, he's been the Don all this time, then we're dead.
00:57:41What are we going to do now?
00:57:42Brandon, you have to fix this.
00:57:43That's it.
00:57:44I can't fix it.
00:57:45We're all going down.
00:57:46Shut up.
00:57:48Michael, who are you really?
00:57:50Dad, are you the Don of Desert Crown?
00:57:54The Don?
00:57:55Me?
00:57:55Come on.
00:57:56Barely manage my cleaning supplies.
00:57:58Then explain why the President gave him the ocean heart.
00:58:02She answers to one person only.
00:58:05The Don.
00:58:05Why don't we let President Marlowe explain?
00:58:11Tell them.
00:58:12The Don still wants to stay hidden, but how am I supposed to explain this?
00:58:18Well, Mr. Smith here provided an exceptional service as a hotel staff member.
00:58:26I was so impressed that I gifted him the ocean heart.
00:58:32That's it.
00:58:32I heard Desert Crown acquire that necklace at an enormous cost, specifically as a gift
00:58:37for the Don himself.
00:58:38The Don of the Desert Crown possesses wealth beyond imagination.
00:58:43Trillions.
00:58:44Something like the ocean heart, it's a trinket to him.
00:58:48Wouldn't you agree, President Marlowe?
00:58:50Absolutely.
00:58:51The Don wouldn't think anything wrong.
00:58:54Guys, he's not the Don.
00:58:55He's not the Don.
00:58:56No, the ocean heart as a gift for good customer service.
00:59:01He's just insanely lucky.
00:59:02The Don operates with the President in secrecy.
00:59:05Come on, what's the likelihood of us stumbling across the Don?
00:59:09Right?
00:59:11It's like stumbling across Jesus.
00:59:13I've been given reports that you've been embezzling company funds for your own personal gain.
00:59:19The evidence.
00:59:21Compelling.
00:59:23Take him into custody.
00:59:26Take him into custody.
00:59:27That's not.
00:59:28It's not.
00:59:29This is bullshit.
00:59:31Daddy!
00:59:32No, you don't leave me!
00:59:34You bitches!
00:59:36Oh, oh honey.
00:59:38Listen, I'm so sorry.
00:59:39Trash out.
00:59:40Okay, I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
00:59:43President Marlowe.
00:59:43Is there something else?
00:59:46Yes, I have a small matter I would like to discuss if it's not too much trouble.
00:59:50Speak freely, Miss Hart.
00:59:51I'll answer what I can.
00:59:52I've heard that Desert...
00:59:54uses these conferences to identify the most promising
01:00:06full exclusivity, maximum resources.
01:00:12How do you know all of that?
01:00:14Oh, from my working in casinos and hotels.
01:00:43What did they do?
01:00:46What do they do?
01:00:47How do you know all the time in casinos?
01:00:47They're asking me if they're writing down on a K pouch.
01:00:49Right?
01:02:20All you have to do is just sit back, relax, and enjoy the fortune while it lasts.
01:02:24Oh, shoot. I think I forgot my phone in the car.
01:02:27I'm going to go grab that.
01:02:28Our house is just up the path here.
01:02:30Number one.
01:02:31Okay.
01:02:31Oh, here. Take this. I'll be right back.
01:02:39But darling, I really think we should go to the club after...
01:02:42What? Michael?
01:02:44Linda Carter? Is that you?
01:02:51What are the odds? It's been years.
01:02:54Get your dirty hand away from my wife.
01:02:57Linda, who is this?
01:02:58He's just an old classmate.
01:03:0020 years ago, he was the most popular guy in school.
01:03:04All the girls had crushes on him.
01:03:06But from what I hear, he hasn't exactly set the world on fire.
01:03:11No real job to speak of.
01:03:14I see. You're still bitter about me turning you down, huh?
01:03:18Bitter?
01:03:20Oh, my God.
01:03:21I haven't even thought about that until you mentioned it just right now.
01:03:24I must have been blind back then.
01:03:27Popularity doesn't pay the bills.
01:03:30Reality has a way of humbling people.
01:03:32What are you doing here, exactly?
01:03:35How did security even let you in?
01:03:38This is an exclusive community.
01:03:40Let me in.
01:03:42I live here.
01:03:44I live here.
01:03:48Oh, God.
01:03:49You live here.
01:03:50Are you kidding?
01:03:52Do you have any idea the type of people who can actually afford to live here?
01:03:57Cloud Heights is the most exclusive community in Nevada.
01:04:01Each homeowner is either wealthy or well-connected.
01:04:05So, take a good look in the mirror.
01:04:08Do you really think that you belong?
01:04:10Well, it has taken us decades of hard work and the right connections to even get the smallest lot in this place.
01:04:20But, you know, if you do live here, which house is yours?
01:04:24The big one at the top of the hill.
01:04:27Number one.
01:04:31If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.
01:04:40That estate is worth over a billion dollars.
01:04:44Money alone can't even buy it.
01:04:46You have to have connections at the highest level.
01:04:49But, Michael, look, we're old classmates.
01:04:52You know, you don't have to put on an act.
01:04:54But, if you do own that house, why don't you prove it?
01:05:00Oh, I don't need to prove anything to you.
01:05:02Right, because you can't.
01:05:04If you insist.
01:05:05Okay, I thought the path was straight there.
01:05:10Maybe it's somewhere around here.
01:05:14Oh, excuse me.
01:05:17Which way to number one?
01:05:20Right across the field there.
01:05:21There'll be an elevator that will take you straight.
01:05:23Did you hear that?
01:05:24He doesn't even know where it is.
01:05:26Just, just stop, Michael.
01:05:28You're only going to embarrass yourself.
01:05:33God.
01:05:34This ought to be good.
01:05:35Let's watch him crash and burn.
01:05:37Yeah.
01:05:42I can't.
01:05:43Oh, God.
01:05:45Have you two got anything better to do than just follow me?
01:05:48Oh, Michael, Michael, Michael.
01:05:50You know what?
01:05:51You really committed to the bit, walking all the way up here.
01:05:55But, you didn't think we'd actually fall for it, did you?
01:05:58How stupid do you think we are?
01:06:01Unless you can prove that you're the owner.
01:06:04Right.
01:06:04What if I can?
01:06:06If you can prove that you're the owner, I will get down on my knees and I will lick your shoes.
01:06:12You said it.
01:06:15Okay.
01:06:16All right.
01:06:18Access granted.
01:06:19Welcome home.
01:06:21What?
01:06:23What?
01:06:26No!
01:06:29What?
01:06:30No!
01:06:31No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:33This is impossible.
01:06:35There's no way he actually owns this place.
01:06:38Come on.
01:06:39If I weren't the owner, I'd have to get in.
01:06:41Promise is a promise.
01:06:42I'm waiting for you to get down on your knees.
01:06:44This doesn't prove anything.
01:06:47Look at his clothes.
01:06:48He's probably the hired help.
01:06:50Oh, yes, exactly.
01:06:52That's the only explanation.
01:06:54Are you being serious?
01:06:55You can't handle losing.
01:06:58What more proof do you need?
01:06:59You know what, Michael?
01:07:01Just forget it.
01:07:02If you feel better playing pretend, go right ahead.
01:07:05Yeah.
01:07:05Come on, honey.
01:07:06I think we've wasted enough time with this clown.
01:07:09Right.
01:07:10Okay.
01:07:10Who are they?
01:07:18Oh, just an old acquaintance.
01:07:20Very pleasant people.
01:07:22They seemed upset.
01:07:24You know, some people just can't help being wrong.
01:07:28Huh.
01:07:29Well, they're lost.
01:07:31Shall we?
01:07:32After you.
01:07:33Sis.
01:07:41Glad you could make it.
01:07:42Daniel, what the fuck are you doing in my house?
01:07:44Who let you in?
01:07:45Well, you're not at the office.
01:07:46You're not answering your phone.
01:07:47Where else am I supposed to make it?
01:07:48Okay.
01:07:49Um, Michael.
01:07:51This is Daniel.
01:07:52My brother.
01:07:53Daniel, this is Michael.
01:07:54My husband.
01:07:56You have a problem.
01:07:57Getting married without telling anybody?
01:07:59That's fucked up.
01:08:00You know, Dad almost had another heart attack when he found out.
01:08:02Dad has been nagging me to get married for years.
01:08:04Now that I have, he's complaining.
01:08:08That's who you choose?
01:08:10Yes.
01:08:11Are you shitting me?
01:08:12He's way older than you.
01:08:13He's broke as shit.
01:08:14He doesn't have a real job.
01:08:15I mean, he's quite striking physically, but it's not like he's Jake Gyllenhaal or Heath Ledger or something.
01:08:19Why is this guy worthy of you?
01:08:21Well, that's not very polite now, is it?
01:08:23We're brother-in-laws.
01:08:25Brother-in-laws.
01:08:26Yeah, guess again, asshole.
01:08:27You can have any guy you want.
01:08:29Tech moguls.
01:08:30Heirs to billion-dollar fortunes.
01:08:31Literally everyone we set you up with, who's better than him?
01:08:34Daniel, my life is none of your business.
01:08:35Except you're my sister, and it kind of is.
01:08:37I'm not just going to let you get taken advantage of like this.
01:08:40All right, dude.
01:08:41What's the scam?
01:08:42Come on, tell me.
01:08:43What kind of con are you running?
01:08:46Daniel, that's enough.
01:08:47Enough?
01:08:48You marrying this guy is going to make us a joke in every boardroom in Vegas.
01:08:51I don't give a shit what they think.
01:08:53All right.
01:08:54What's your number?
01:08:56What is it?
01:08:57Five million?
01:08:57Ten million?
01:08:58Come on, just tell me.
01:08:59I can give it to you, and then you can leave.
01:09:01Money?
01:09:02That's not what I care about.
01:09:03Fuck it.
01:09:05We'll do this the hard way.
01:09:09Boys.
01:09:11What are you doing?
01:09:12I'm going to teach this old man a lesson he won't forget.
01:09:15We're going to do this?
01:09:18Let's take it outside.
01:09:20No, Michael, don't.
01:09:22Michael, stop.
01:09:23Daniel, stop.
01:09:25Guys, call it off.
01:09:26Daniel, stop.
01:09:30You choosing this guy over your own family?
01:09:31Let go of me.
01:09:33If anything happens to him, you're fucking dead to me.
01:09:34You're throwing everything away from me.
01:09:36What happened to you?
01:09:37Why did you become this desperate?
01:09:38He saved my life.
01:09:40Dumbass.
01:09:40Write him a check.
01:09:41You don't have to marry every idiot that does you a favor.
01:09:44You wouldn't even understand.
01:09:46He'll stop and call them off before...
01:09:48Before what?
01:09:48It's already happened.
01:09:49They're ex-special forces.
01:09:50Are they?
01:09:57Are they?
01:10:03Are you hurt?
01:10:04I'm fine.
01:10:05I think your brother here got some bad intel.
01:10:08These guys can shake up a lemonade stand.
01:10:11They're not special forces.
01:10:15That's impossible.
01:10:20You willing to test that theory?
01:10:22You're Evelyn's brother.
01:10:24But you need to leave now.
01:10:27This isn't over.
01:10:30Not by a long shot.
01:10:31I'm sorry about him.
01:10:38Sometimes I don't know how I'm related to him.
01:10:41I can't believe you...
01:10:43That was so dangerous.
01:10:45Where'd you learn to fight like that?
01:10:46Oh, here and there.
01:10:48Nothing to worry about.
01:10:50I'm fine.
01:10:50I've got it.
01:10:52And you've ruined your clothes.
01:10:55Boys, boys, boys.
01:10:57Come on.
01:10:58Let's get you cleaned up.
01:10:59Okay.
01:10:59I'm humiliated by your fucking janitor.
01:11:12All right.
01:11:12Didn't want to have to do this.
01:11:15Here we go.
01:11:17Victor.
01:11:18It's Daniel Hart.
01:11:20Listen, remember that favor you owe me?
01:11:23Yeah.
01:11:23Well, my sister just married this fucking middle-aged maintenance worker.
01:11:29Uh, she's still thirsty for Desert Crown's back.
01:11:31So I was wondering if...
01:11:33Tonight?
01:11:35That fast?
01:11:37Yeah.
01:11:38Sure.
01:11:39Yeah.
01:11:41I'll make sure she's there.
01:11:50Ah.
01:11:53Do you think Daniel's mystery contact actually has pull at Desert Crown?
01:11:58Or is it just more of the usual haunt air?
01:12:00It's getting a bit late, Eve.
01:12:02Why don't we leave this until tomorrow?
01:12:04Fresh eyes.
01:12:06Clear heads.
01:12:07You don't get it.
01:12:09I don't take every chance that I can.
01:12:11I'll never forgive myself.
01:12:12This is how I understand it.
01:12:15The final call at this investment conference goes to the dawn.
01:12:19Period.
01:12:20So even if this mystery contact has connections, can he really overwrite it?
01:12:26I don't know.
01:12:27Maybe...
01:12:27Maybe not.
01:12:29But I still have to try.
01:12:32Wait for me outside, okay?
01:12:34I won't be long.
01:12:34Okay.
01:12:34I won't be long.
01:12:36I won't be long.
01:12:37I won't be long.
01:12:54A bar?
01:12:55Who has a business meeting at a bar?
01:12:58You want answers?
01:12:59Right through there.
01:13:01Here to see Vic, gentlemen, let me introduce you to Victor Castellano, the son of the Chancellor
01:13:15of Desert Crown.
01:13:17Please, take a seat.
01:13:23Chancellor's son?
01:13:24I mean, I've heard of the Don and President Marlowe, but his position seems new.
01:13:32Well, that shows what you don't know.
01:13:34Sure, the Don's the head honcho, he runs the whole thing, but beneath him are two equally
01:13:37powerful positions, the President and the Chancellor.
01:13:40Your brother's right.
01:13:41Think of Desert Crown as more than just a company.
01:13:44It's an empire.
01:13:46President Marlowe deals with the business side of things, the legitimate operations.
01:13:50But my father, he handles everything else.
01:13:52The machine that keeps the wheels turning.
01:13:56I see.
01:13:57And the investment conference?
01:13:58Oh, we can help you.
01:14:00But I can't guarantee that you'll win.
01:14:02That would be dishonest.
01:14:04But I will do everything in my power to improve Meridian Ventures' chances.
01:14:08I'll stack the deck in your favor, if you will.
01:14:12That would be...
01:14:13That would be incredible.
01:14:16I mean, being your price, no matter the outcome, I'll make sure you're compensated very fairly.
01:14:21Oh, I don't need compensation.
01:14:24I mean, look around you, I have everything that money can buy, right?
01:14:27Consider it a gesture of friendship.
01:14:32Two business partners and mutual success.
01:14:41Hmm?
01:14:42Well, I'm celebrating.
01:14:42Huh?
01:14:43Huh?
01:14:48Huh?
01:14:57You know, I heard about Meridian Ventures' president.
01:15:02They say you're the most beautiful woman in Las Vegas.
01:15:05And the rumors...
01:15:07Ooh.
01:15:07They do not cut it.
01:15:10It's getting late.
01:15:12I wish I'd get going.
01:15:13I have to get...
01:15:14Oh, my husband.
01:15:16Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:15:17Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:15:21You okay?
01:15:22Okay?
01:15:27Drink.
01:15:29Yes.
01:15:30Are you okay?
01:15:31What's going on?
01:15:32Congratulations, boss.
01:15:39The most untouchable woman in Vegas.
01:15:42Not so untouchable anymore.
01:15:45I thought I had you fired.
01:15:47Oh, you did more than that.
01:15:50Thanks to Michael and that bitch, Sophia, I lost everything.
01:15:54My position, my reputation, and now I'm even facing time in federal prison.
01:15:59Victor, what the fuck is going on?
01:16:02What is this?
01:16:03You really are as stupid as you look, aren't you?
01:16:05You think Victor was ever really interested in some trust fund baby with a gambling problem?
01:16:10He was never interested in you, you idiot.
01:16:13I just wanted your sister.
01:16:15What's taking her so long?
01:16:23Why are you doing this?
01:16:25Do you really have to ask?
01:16:26I mean, look at you.
01:16:28You're beautiful.
01:16:29You're powerful.
01:16:30You're untouchable.
01:16:33But you just made yourself two areas...
01:16:36You touch my sister, I'll fucking kill you.
01:16:41Oh, Daniel, I'm going to do more than just touch her.
01:16:44I'm going to make you watch every single second.
01:16:49And this is going to haunt you for the rest of your pathetic little life.
01:16:54Hey, man, you don't have to do this.
01:16:55You can just let her go.
01:16:56Oh, God, someone shut this loser up, please.
01:16:59Your husband?
01:17:01The janitor?
01:17:01I mean, he hasn't even touched you yet, has he?
01:17:04Which means you are mine to claim.
01:17:06A gift, really.
01:17:08Unopened.
01:17:10Get your dirty hands off.
01:17:11Get your dirty hands off her.
01:17:19Michael.
01:17:23This place is surrounded with security.
01:17:25How did you get in?
01:17:26Oh, those three rented thugs?
01:17:27They weren't much of an obstacle.
01:17:28As a member of Desert Crown Holdings, you should know better than to act like this.
01:17:33Aren't you afraid what happens when the organization finds out?
01:17:37Found out?
01:17:38About what?
01:17:39This is just a business meeting.
01:17:41Oh, man, you really don't know how this works, do you?
01:17:44Victor is the Chancellor's son.
01:17:47No one at Desert Crown would dare touch him.
01:17:49Nobody.
01:17:49But not even President Marlow dares to cross me.
01:17:52I'm untouchable.
01:17:53What about the Don?
01:17:55The Don?
01:17:56Please, he operates so far above this, he doesn't care about any of this, okay?
01:18:01So I suggest you turn around, walk your ass out of here, and pretend like you would never hear him.
01:18:07Go.
01:18:07No, I am untouchable, all right?
01:18:30I made that specifically clear.
01:18:32I am untouchable.
01:18:33Oh, you just signed your death with, asshole.
01:18:47Shit, Mike, you're a beast.
01:18:54Evelyn, are you doing better?
01:18:57I'm fine.
01:18:58I think whatever that bastard gave me is finally right.
01:19:03Oh, I'm so tired.
01:19:05I can't believe I fell for Victor's lies.
01:19:07He won't get away with it, I promise.
01:19:10We can deal with that another time.
01:19:12Right now, she needs some rest.
01:19:14It's twice you've seen me now.
01:19:36I wouldn't be a very good husband if I didn't save you.
01:19:39You need some rest.
01:19:49I need you.
01:19:50I need you.
01:19:50Well, I feel like you feel better.
01:20:12I'm going to walk with it.
01:20:14I feel like you're needing that.
01:20:18I need you to take care of this guy at all.
01:20:21I know.
01:20:23I love you.
01:20:24I hope you happen to be.
01:20:25I love you.
01:20:26Oh, yeah.
01:20:26We'll try.
01:20:27I love you.
01:20:28We're coming to my party.
01:20:29I know.
01:20:29We'll try nowadays.
01:20:30I want to make you enjoy this interview with you.
01:20:32You know.
01:20:33You know, I love I love you.
01:20:34I love you, you and I love you.
01:20:37I love you.
01:20:37I love you, you and I love you.
01:20:38I love you.
01:20:39You know, I love you.
01:20:40Good morning.
01:20:55Welcome back to the land of the living.
01:20:57How are you feeling?
01:20:59Better.
01:21:00Clearer.
01:21:00After a night of vigorous sex.
01:21:04Is that what you're going to call it?
01:21:06Well, I guess I could get a few more reps in.
01:21:08Well, as your personal trainer, I insist that you take it easy and eat your breakfast.
01:21:15Stop.
01:21:19You know, it's just a shame that my Chancellor Desert Crown is ruined.
01:21:22Why'd you say that?
01:21:23Mike won't be realistic. He's the Chancellor's son.
01:21:26He has connections that we can't match.
01:21:28Trust me on this.
01:21:30You should still attend the conference.
01:21:32In fact, I guarantee you, you're going to be glad that you did.
01:21:38Claire, please tell me we have everything handled.
01:21:49Please tell me that we're not about to humiliate ourselves.
01:21:51All available capital has been mobilized, President.
01:21:54Fifty billion dollars.
01:21:56Liquid and bear pipe.
01:21:57It sounds like a fortune, but when you look around this room, half the companies in here could just match that.
01:22:04The blink of an eye.
01:22:05And why are we here? Why are you doing this, dude?
01:22:07Because Michael told me to be here.
01:22:09He says he has a surprise.
01:22:11Oh, no kidding.
01:22:12Speaking of, where is he?
01:22:14Well, well, well.
01:22:16Look who's here.
01:22:17Victor, here to embarrass yourselves?
01:22:23I mean, don't get me wrong.
01:22:23We're in Ventures is respectable in a regional company kind of way, I guess, if that's your thing.
01:22:30But everyone in this room is Fortune 500 territory.
01:22:34I mean, you actually won't even survive the competition.
01:22:36The game hasn't even started.
01:22:38Don't count your chips at the table, Anthony.
01:22:40Oh, I'm not counting chips, Evelyn.
01:22:43I am stating the facts.
01:22:44The winner has already been decided.
01:22:47Our family is backing Kennedy, and when we back somebody, they don't lose.
01:22:51That's funny.
01:22:53I almost said the same thing.
01:22:55Let's be equally clear.
01:22:58The real winner is Meridian Ventures.
01:23:02The real winner is Meridian Ventures.
01:23:06I'm sorry, what?
01:23:07You think Meridian Ventures is going to win?
01:23:10And that's based off of what, your dazzling personality?
01:23:14Why do you keep showing up where you don't belong?
01:23:17Shouldn't you be mopping floors somewhere?
01:23:19You know, scrubbing toilets?
01:23:21The balls on this guy.
01:23:24Glorified handyman.
01:23:26What do you think?
01:23:27You're going to declare victory and make it happen?
01:23:30You want an answer?
01:23:31It's simple.
01:23:32Through me.
01:23:33Oh, wow.
01:23:35Well, you hear that, everybody?
01:23:36That is golden.
01:23:37Absolutely priceless.
01:23:39Michael, what are you doing here?
01:23:40How could you possibly guarantee that?
01:23:42Please tell me you have an actual plan, please.
01:23:44Don't worry, both of you.
01:23:46Trust me.
01:23:48Okay.
01:23:48You know what?
01:23:49If you are so certain Meridian Ventures is going to win, let's test it.
01:23:54Capital verification right here, right now.
01:23:57The company that my family is backing has 90 billion in liquid assets.
01:24:03And with a little bit of strategic liquidation, we could get past 100 billion without breaking
01:24:07a sweat.
01:24:09That's immense.
01:24:11That's impossible.
01:24:12We barely scraped up 50 billion.
01:24:13That's everything that we have.
01:24:15We can't compete with that.
01:24:17You hear that?
01:24:19That's reality knocking.
01:24:2150 billion versus 100.
01:24:22That's not just a gap.
01:24:24Sweetheart, it's a goddamn...
01:24:26What if this changes everything?
01:24:32What...
01:24:32What if this changes everything?
01:24:40What?
01:24:41That's not real.
01:24:42That is a Desert Crown Royal card.
01:24:46Those cards, there's only five in existence.
01:24:49Each one has access to Jesus Christ.
01:24:53Trillions.
01:24:53Fuck.
01:24:55Mike, how did you get that?
01:24:56Don't worry.
01:24:57You'll find out soon enough.
01:24:59Does this answer your capital verification question?
01:25:02How does someone like you have a Desert Crown Royal card, huh?
01:25:06Just who the hell are you?
01:25:07What does it matter?
01:25:08What matters is that Meridian Ventures passed capital verification with room to spare.
01:25:13Okay, well, you know, it could be fake.
01:25:15Anybody could print out a little plastic piece of a black card, all right?
01:25:20Someone bring me a card reader right now.
01:25:21Oops.
01:25:22If this is fake, I'm going to have you arrested for fraud.
01:25:28Then, not even God will be able to save you.
01:25:32Current available balance, one trillion dollars.
01:25:37What?
01:25:38No, what?
01:25:38This is genuine?
01:25:40No.
01:25:40If that's genuine, I'll eat dog shit.
01:25:44Shit.
01:25:46Michael, where did you get that kind of money?
01:25:48I mean, a trillion dollars?
01:25:50Does that change anything?
01:25:51When I had nothing, you married me anyway?
01:25:53And now that I've got money?
01:25:55Does it matter?
01:25:55No, it doesn't.
01:25:57No, no, no.
01:25:58Capital verification doesn't mean anything.
01:26:01Okay, the decision on the partnership has to be made by the Don.
01:26:04Only the Don can authorize it.
01:26:07You're absolutely correct.
01:26:10That's why I asked him to be here.
01:26:11What?
01:26:12You can come in now.
01:26:14What?
01:26:14Greetings, Don Moretti.
01:26:25Greetings, Don Moretti.
01:26:30Don.
01:26:32Your husband is the Don of Desert Crown Holdings?
01:26:35Michael, are you really?
01:26:37Dad, you let me stock shelves and worry about rent for seven years.
01:26:41All while you were running a trillion dollar empire?
01:26:43You've done good, kid.
01:26:44You turned out to be a better man than I hoped for.
01:26:46I officially announced that Meridian Ventures will become Desert Crown Holdings' exclusive strategic partner.
01:26:53No, no.
01:26:54With immediate effect, you'll be given full access to networks, resources, and infrastructure backed with initial investment of one trillion dollars.
01:27:07How's that for a marriage proposal?
01:27:09Last time I checked, we were already married.
01:27:12Legally, sure.
01:27:13But it wasn't a proper proposal.
01:27:15Not a real moment.
01:27:20Evelyn Hort, will you marry me again?
01:27:25For real, this time?
01:27:26Yeah, I will.
01:27:27Aaron, you've been thinking your whole life that you're a nobody.
01:27:53But you are my son.
01:27:55And it's about time you learned how to run this empire.
01:27:59I'm putting him under your guidance.
01:28:01Teach him everything you know.
01:28:02Thanks, Dad.
01:28:06I'll do my best.
01:28:15As for you three, deal with them, quietly but thoroughly.
01:28:20And let everyone know that this is what happens when you forget who you work for.
01:28:26I...
01:28:27Hold on a second.
01:28:29No, that...
01:28:30Just let go of them.
01:28:31No, please!
01:28:33You're cool.
01:28:33You're great.
01:28:34Okay.
01:28:34Okay.
01:28:34Let's get a follow, guys.
01:28:44Here we go.
01:28:45Smile.
01:28:46Everyone get in position.
01:28:48And action.
01:29:06Walk in.
01:29:07One, two, bounce back.
01:29:10Smack.
01:29:10Ah, I'm going to go on.
