00:00What's your name?
00:03Mr. Adams, I'm Keisha.
00:05Keisha Daniels, been here for five years.
00:08Loyal, smart, and kind.
00:14Okay.
00:15Starting today, Keisha will be the new CEO of Global Investments,
00:19and you'll all be getting a raise.
00:21If anyone causes Keisha any trouble or disagrees with her,
00:24there will be consequences.
00:28Thank you, Mr. Adams.
00:31Everyone can go. I just need a word with Keisha.
00:43Oh, you're married to Kim Cassidy.
00:46Only the most beautiful woman in the city.
00:49Yes, and I need you to do something for me.
00:53Oh!
00:55What the hell?!
00:59Harry, I'm so sorry.
01:00David.
01:01Of all people for Stephen Adams to spill on,
01:04his wife's cousin, Harry Cassidy, had to be the worst.
01:08This is Burberry.
01:10I can pay for it.
01:11You couldn't afford to get this cleaned.
01:13And on the day of Grandma's party.
01:15That's today.
01:17Of course you forgot.
01:20The useless husband of yours is still nowhere to be found, huh?
01:24Good luck explaining that to Grandma.
01:26Shut up, Harry.
01:28He's almost here.
01:36Honey, I'm so sorry I'm late. It's a long story.
01:39Who is that?
01:40He can't be a Cassidy.
01:42Oh, he is. He's the infamous son-in-law.
01:44Oh, the broke one.
01:46Oh, he is. He's the infamous son-in-law.
01:48Oh, the broke one.
01:49Who's contributed nothing to the family.
01:54You do this to yourself, Stephen.
01:56To me.
01:58You could have at least put on a clean shirt.
02:01It's like you're trying to make me make jokes.
02:03Gemma, I didn't do this on purpose.
02:05Just forget it.
02:06Let's pay our respects.
02:07We'll talk about it after.
02:11Who gave you permission to go in?
02:12Harry, stop. You have no right.
02:15Cassidy has no right to enter my family villa dressed like that.
02:17You are a family villa.
02:19Not for long.
02:26Move, Harry.
02:28For Grandma's sake.
02:30Grandma did say that every member of the Cassidy family had to attend.
02:34But he's an Addams.
02:37Notice the sign.
02:40Kim, why don't you go in?
02:42Just do whatever you want.
02:46Way to know your place.
02:59We must give thanks for how blessed our family has been.
03:05And I hope we shall prosper for years to come.
03:14Grandmother, under your wise leadership, the Cassidy family will rise to new heights.
03:19Harry's a genius.
03:21This year alone, he's increased our family profits significantly.
03:24Smartest man in the city.
03:26Thank you, Harry.
03:27But I couldn't have done it alone.
03:29I am grateful to the friends and support we have had all over this great city of ours.
03:35Speaking of which, I'm sure all of you are excited to introduce to me the guests you've invited tonight.
03:42Grandmother, I'd like you to meet my guest.
03:45Meet Pete Rockford, the CEO of Rockford International.
03:49Charmed.
03:52It's a pleasure.
03:54Isn't it time you introduced your guest?
03:56Is that really how low things have gotten for you and your delivery boy husband?
04:02You couldn't even swing so high as a lawyer?
04:05Well, Kim and I actually invited the head of the Stein family, Jack Stein, ladies and gentlemen.
04:14Steve and I go way back.
04:18Here is a jade statue as a token of my appreciation.
04:27Come on, Steve-O.
04:29What hobo did you hire to play the role of Jack today?
04:32What kind of a knockoff statue is this?
04:35Oh, I would be careful with that if I were you, Harry.
04:37It's worth ten million dollars and we all know how you are with money.
04:40Need I remind you of the Murphy deal?
04:45You're right.
04:47This is obviously fake.
04:48Actually, this is one of a kind.
04:54Very impressive guest, Kim.
05:01Actually, Grandma, it was...
05:02There's no need to explain.
05:05I couldn't be more proud of Kim and Harry.
05:10And I was going to save this news for the end of the night, but...
05:13Unfortunately, our family's long-standing success may be coming to an end.
05:20I'm sorry.
05:22I'm sorry.
05:24I'm sorry.
05:26I'm sorry.
05:28I'm sorry.
05:30I'm sorry.
05:32I'm sorry.
05:34It may end sooner than we think.
05:37My loves, our family is in crisis.
05:42As you know, we were the majority investor in the Century Garden project.
05:47But due to lack of funding, the project has been halted.
05:50Also halted are any prospects of returns.
05:55The only way to save the family now is by securing a large loan or being gifted a substantial amount.
06:04It is time for a brave soul to step up and help.
06:13You seem to have no trouble speaking up when it comes to dividend.
06:16But when this family needs your help, you are suddenly quiet.
06:19Grandma, relax.
06:22Think of your health.
06:26I'll think of a way to solve this.
06:29Actually, didn't Kim prove the value of her connections today?
06:34Harry's right.
06:35Kim, this family's always had your back.
06:37Now it's time for you to have ours.
06:40Actually, Grandma, Jack was Steven's friend.
06:44He's the one who brought him.
06:46So, I can't ask for an investment.
06:51How could you be so heartless?
06:54This family is not only in crisis...
06:56But you won't help us?
06:58And you're lying through your teeth to our dear Grandma?
07:01How could someone like Steven know someone like Jack?
07:06Are you mad at Grandma for not prioritizing your family all these years?
07:09No. It isn't like that.
07:17I have an idea.
07:18Whoever can secure the $50 million needed for the Century Garden project in the next two days...
07:24Will become the sole successor...
07:28To the Cassidy family.
07:32What do you think?
07:39Okay.
07:41And one more condition.
07:42Whoever fails...
07:44Will be forced to withdraw from the Cassidy family forever.
07:48Them and their...
07:50Immediate...
07:51Family.
07:53What's wrong?
07:55Scared, little cousin?
07:58We accept.
08:00We accept your bet.
08:02Kim...
08:04Trust me.
08:09That's right.
08:11We accept.
08:12You better not go back on your word.
08:14Don't worry.
08:16I'm not as shameless as you are.
08:18I'm not as shameless as you are.
08:25Okay, time to spill. How do you know Jack?
08:28He's a friend's dad. An old friend.
08:32Okay.
08:34Do you think he can help us get a loan?
08:36No, it's not like that.
08:39Well, then, do you have any connections?
08:43Anyone who runs a bank who can help us get a loan of that size?
08:45Honestly, no.
08:46Then why did you accept the bet?
08:48Because I believe in you.
08:57Oh my God.
09:07Hello?
09:08Mr. Adams, I have wonderful news. And heartbreaking news.
09:13Um, I guess I'll take the heartbreaking first.
09:17Well, sadly, last night, Father, Klein passed away in his sleep.
09:22Oh no.
09:23But he's left his family fortune to you. The Porsche family fortune.
09:28Did you say the Porsche family fortune?
09:30Father Klein believes you've passed the test. It's humbled you.
09:33And he hopes you will continue to do good with this newfound fortune.
09:38Well, thank you.
09:40And Steven.
09:41Yes?
09:42Careful who you trust. You are now one of the wealthiest men in the country.
09:54I guess the tables are turning.
10:03Do you have an appointment?
10:04I'm here to see Dave. He knows I'm coming. Jack would have called.
10:23Dave Marks.
10:24Steven Adams. I'm here to speak with you about a possible investment in the Cassidy family.
10:30Are you the Cassidy family's son-in-law?
10:34I'm sorry, I can't help you.
10:36Can't help you?
10:38What do you mean? You're gonna dismiss me without even knowing the turn of the deal?
10:43Because I don't know who you are. And you're not worth my time.
10:56I'll give you one chance.
10:59Excuse me?
11:00One chance to apologize to me and invest in the Cassidy group without charging any fees.
11:05And I'll forgive the way you're speaking to me.
11:08If you don't, you'll regret it.
11:16Is this some kind of joke?
11:19I'm not afraid of somebody like you.
11:25I don't care how you do it, but I want global investments to be mine in ten minutes.
11:30You want to buy a five billion dollar company in ten minutes?
11:42Yeah, security.
11:43Can you come up here and remove Steven Adams from my office, please?
11:46Hold on, I'm getting another call.
11:48Hey there, boss.
11:52You...
11:54You... You sold my company.
11:56Sold my company.
11:58For ten billion dollars.
12:01To who?
12:05To Steven Adams.
12:08Just had to get rid of some pocket change.
12:10I'm sorry.
12:26Steven.
12:27No, Mr. Adams.
12:30I'm sorry. Will you forget me?
12:33It's too late now.
12:38Deb? Frank?
12:40What do you want, boss?
12:41I need you to dig up any dirt on Dave Marks and how he's ruined this company.
12:44You have two days.
12:53What's your name?
12:54Mr. Adams, I'm Keisha.
12:56Keisha Daniels.
12:57Been here for five years.
12:59Loyal.
13:00Smart and kind.
13:05Okay.
13:06Starting today, Keisha will be the new CEO of Global Investments.
13:10And you'll all be getting a raise.
13:11If anyone causes Keisha any trouble or disagrees with her, there will be consequences.
13:18Thank you, Mr. Adams.
13:22Everyone can go.
13:23I just need a word with Keisha.
13:25Keisha.
13:34Oh, you're married to Kim Cassidy.
13:37Only the most beautiful woman in the city.
13:40Yes. And I need you to do something for me.
13:49Kim.
13:50Hi.
13:51What are you doing?
13:52I'm just on my way to the bank to try to get a loan.
13:54Better to at least say I tried before I lose my family and fortune to Harry.
13:58I'm not going to let you lose to Harry.
13:59Let's go.
14:00I know somewhere you can secure a big loan.
14:11Seriously, Steven?
14:13Global Investments.
14:15You really think we can negotiate a deal with them?
14:17I already talked to Jack.
14:18He got you an appointment with the CEO.
14:20You just have to go in.
14:21I'll wait out here for you.
14:25Fine.
14:27I'll go in.
14:44Hello. Are you Mrs. Cassidy?
14:46Yes.
14:47Please follow me.
14:48The CEO's been looking forward to your arrival.
14:51Will Steven's plan succeed?
14:53Will Kim be able to secure her place in the Cassidy family forever?
14:57Or will it all come crashing down around her?
