00:00So, let's talk about the numbers.
00:05Okay, it's 19-15, so everybody leave the office now.
00:09Hey, who the hell are you mister?
00:11Who am I?
00:13You're new head of security. Got it?
00:19The meeting is over. See you tomorrow.
00:22See you tomorrow, guys. Have a nice evening. Bye, bye, bye.
00:31Mrs. Weston, all him? Is everything all right?
00:34Yeah, everything is all right.
00:36Are you sure?
00:37Yeah, yeah, Ginger. Thanks.
00:46I will see you tomorrow.
00:48See you, Ginger.
00:50Okay.
00:59My God.
01:01Jim, you're out of your mind.
01:07What is this all circus about?
01:09Rachel, when was the last time you came into my time, huh?
01:16But I'm the boss here. I have to work late.
01:18Boss? Shut your mouth. You can talk to your boys like that.
01:22Please, Jim.
01:23I'm your boss, Rachel. And I really know what you really like, huh?
01:28Jim, please, honey.
01:30And you just planned the big tough girl act, huh?
01:35Jim, please, you're hurting me. Please.
01:37Yeah, I know. In reality, you're helpless and weak, Rachel.
01:40Please.
01:41Aren't you, sweetheart?
01:42I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
01:45Mrs. West meets me again.
01:47She just forgot my phone. And I'll be quick.
01:52That's it. Well, now I'm going. Yeah.
01:55Yeah, yeah. See you tomorrow at the meeting, Ginger.
01:57Yeah, for sure.
02:05Mrs. West, I was just looking for you.
02:07Ginger, let's talk later. The meeting with Mr. Burning is coming up.
02:11It's urgent.
02:13What?
02:14Here.
02:19The big tough girl act, huh?
02:21Jim, please, you're hurting me. Please.
02:23I know everything, Mrs. West. And we're not going to leave it at that.
02:26Please. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
02:31So you recorded everything last night?
02:33Yes, I did. But now we have proof. Let's call the police.
02:36Here. Where's this report?
02:39Why did you delete it?
02:41It's the way it should be, okay, Ginger?
02:43Oh, here it is.
02:44Listen to me. Listen to me. Please, please, please, please.
02:47Don't be ridiculous.
02:48I know what I'm talking about. Just, just believe me. My father was...
02:53I mean...
02:56I'm sure Jim will never give you any peace.
02:59He will never give you any peace.
03:01I mean...
03:03I'm sure Jim will never give you any peace.
03:08Ginger, you don't understand.
03:10I do understand.
03:13How could you even know? Do you know how it feels like to be a female boss?
03:17It's not a point.
03:18It is exactly the point, Ginger. I have to be strong, okay?
03:23This is my issue, Ginger, not yours.
03:25I've put up with Jim somehow, and I will put up with him again.
03:30And you sound exactly like my mother.
03:34When she was younger, like you.
03:36My father has been abusing my mom for all her life.
03:40You want a sane life.
03:43You go to sleep every night and think, how are you glad you didn't beat it up today?
03:51But what about tomorrow?
04:00Tomorrow?
04:12Hey!
04:15Jim, I'm so sorry, I'm a bit busy and...
04:18It's okay.
04:22So, did the girl talk to Interpol and the cops?
04:26Or what she said?
04:27What she said. I'm so excited.
04:30Jim, what are you talking about?
04:34You know, sweetheart, the good thing about being a security guard is that I can always see you.
04:45Or who you is.
04:49Cameras.
04:50Yes! And Oscar goes to Rachel!
04:53Rachel!
04:56Oh yeah, I didn't hear what you guys were talking about.
05:06But still, it seemed...
05:09Fairly obvious.
05:18Fire her.
05:20What?
05:23Fire her.
05:28Oh, Jim, listen, she has nothing to do with it. Ginger will give her...
05:32Rachel!
05:37I can't do anything in this office because I'm the only one who can look at the camera.
05:47Okay, okay, I got it. I will fire her.
06:02Oh.
06:04Oh.
06:11Believe in yourself.
06:14And you will be unstoppable.
06:34Oh.
06:44I just want to say that we...
06:46Sam, please, leave us alone. Quickly.
06:51Mrs. West, have you reconsidered your decision?
06:56You're fired, Ginger.
06:59What do you mean?
07:01What do you mean by that?
07:03That's what Jim's supposed to think, okay?
07:06You have to be surprised right now.
07:08What?
07:09Come on, girl, come on. Give her the damn papers.
07:17Well, you know, he can see us on the cameras, but he cannot hear us, so don't look.
07:24Be sad right now.
07:26I don't quite understand anything.
07:28Well, listen, I'm ready to fight, but I cannot do this without you, so...
07:32I'm so glad to hear that. I mean, I'm so glad.
07:35So, will you help me?
07:37Of course. I mean, of course.
07:41Good. The plan is in this document.
07:45Yeah.
07:53I don't know. What should I do next?
07:56Now slap me in the face.
07:58I'm so sorry. What?
08:00Do it.
08:02But I want to do this.
08:05Mrs. West, I'm sorry for that.
08:08I'm sorry again.
08:26Damn, how they can lose?
08:29Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing here?
08:34Get out of here.
08:38I'm just waiting for you.
08:40Oh, really?
08:42Yeah.
08:43I'll get fired, you know.
08:46Rachel must have figured out that I was trying to kick her out of here, so...
08:51You're Ginger, right?
08:53Uh-huh.
08:54Why should you care, Ginger?
08:56Because in the process, she made something interesting for me.
09:01Turns out that you are her hubby.
09:04Maybe, so what?
09:07Listen, what do you need from someone like her?
09:11Maybe you and I can make a pretty good couple.
09:16Maybe you and I can make a pretty good couple.
09:23Pretty good couple.
09:25That's right.
09:26That's right.
09:32So, what do you suggest?
09:37Then we should get rid of her.
09:43I'll get the money and you get a new girlfriend.
09:47How's that for a plan?
09:50What?
09:51What?
09:53You're so hot, Ginger.
09:54Oh, okay.
09:58Why do you think I'm dumb enough to believe that?
10:04What you got here, Michael, yeah?
10:06What are you doing? Hey!
10:08You wanna set me up, yeah? Set me up, yeah?
10:10Listen, my mention is so sincere, just so into someone like you, brutal, strong man, you know what I mean?
10:17Get out of here.
10:19Sick.
10:21Hey, everybody's looking for you, by the way.
10:26The CEO is already here, so he's in the meeting room.
10:31Let's go.
10:41So, I guess everyone is here.
10:44And before we start, before I share our great results of this quarter, I would like to talk about one problem.
10:55It's about me being a leader here.
10:59So, what are you talking about?
11:01You know, I always wanted to appear so strong so that everyone could see me as a powerful leader.
11:07But in reality, my husband, Jim, has been abusing me for years, and I was just afraid to stand up to him.
11:16So that's why I stayed here long, just to be less at home.
11:21Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
11:29Hey, guys, it's just like a misunderstanding.
11:33It's like a joke.
11:34Why are you doing that?
11:35Stop, please.
11:36Well, here.
11:38Jim, Jim, please.
11:39You're hurting me.
11:40Please.
11:41Rachel.
11:43Please.
11:45I'm so sorry.
11:46I'm so sorry.
11:48Hey, hey, hey, hey.
11:49Look at the screen.
11:50It's not true.
11:51Come on, come on.
11:52Easy, man.
11:53It's not true.
11:54Okay, if it's not the truth, then...
11:56Oh, here.
12:00Rachel.
12:02Honey, I'm so sorry.
12:04That was the last time, I promise you.
12:06I'm so sorry.
12:07I will change.
12:08Hey, I will change, honey.
12:09I heard that so many times.
12:12You won't change, Jim.
12:14Oh, really?
12:16Don't make a monster out of me.
12:19I'm not like that.
12:22You are the monster who destroyed our family.
12:24Wife shouldn't earn more money than her husband.
12:27She shouldn't build a career when her husband's career is going down the drain.
12:31You can't be stronger than me.
12:32You can't, Rachel.
12:34I'm stronger than you and always will be.
12:36And you're weak, Rachel.
12:37You are weak.
12:38Take your hands off me.
12:39Listen, I...
12:40You can only call me weak just because I...
12:44I haven't left you earlier.
12:46Shut up.
12:47You go with me.
12:50Okay.
12:51Well, everyone, I'm so sorry for all of this.
12:55I think it's enough for today, so the meeting is over.
12:59Thanks.
13:06Rachel.
13:08Are you okay?
13:09Yeah, I'm fine.
13:11Thanks, Mr. Berming.
13:13Now you see that I'm not a strong person as you thought I would be, so...
13:19Well, I'm...
13:22I'm quitting.
13:25Quitting?
13:27What are you...
13:28You can't quit.
13:30Listen, Rachel, if there's one thing that I've learned in my career...
13:33No, no, in my entire life, the one thing that I've learned to understand
13:39is that the strongest person isn't necessarily the one who's quiet,
13:44but the one who finds the courage and the strength to open up and to tell the truth.
13:50But I... I don't...
13:52Rachel.
13:54You're the strongest person that I've ever met. Ever.
14:01I have some great support.
14:06Thank you.
14:07No, thank you.
14:24I'm...
14:25I'm...
14:26I'm...
14:27I'm...
