00:00:00Check your phone.
00:00:07Let's see.
00:00:11Toxic palace culture exposed behind the gilded walls.
00:00:15Hashtag palace abuse.
00:00:16What's going on?
00:00:20Huh.
00:00:22Is this another one of your cosplay obsessions?
00:00:26No.
00:00:29But I am going undercover.
00:00:31As a maid, we need to figure out where these bullying allegations stem from.
00:00:38Who cleaned in the second floor and left water stains everywhere?
00:00:43Oh, I was responsible for the second floor, ma'am.
00:00:45Oh, you were?
00:00:47Go upstairs and fix it.
00:00:49Do I need to teach you how to do it myself, you ungrateful cow?
00:00:54Did you just call her an ungrateful cow?
00:00:57Just like you.
00:00:59Born to serve, born to clean.
00:01:04Oh, hate.
00:01:06My shoe's dirty.
00:01:08Clean it.
00:01:09Excuse me?
00:01:10It's okay, I'll do it.
00:01:12You need to get on your knees to clean it.
00:01:19You know, I kind of just do that.
00:01:26You.
00:01:27Bitch.
00:01:28You got my shoes all wet!
00:01:31Look, I'll buy you some new shoes, okay?
00:01:33There are only a hundred of these sold globally.
00:01:35They're limited edition.
00:01:36They go for a hundred grand on the black market, idiot.
00:01:39A hundred thousand.
00:01:40Ms. Blackwell, I am so, so sorry.
00:01:42It was an accident.
00:01:43Please forgive us.
00:01:44You want my forgiveness?
00:01:46Fine.
00:01:47Both of you, on your knees.
00:01:49Now.
00:01:50You're gonna lick my shoes clean.
00:01:52Then, I'll think about it.
00:01:57Do it!
00:01:58You're both fired.
00:01:59No, no, no, please.
00:02:00I can't lose this job.
00:02:01Ms. Blackwell, I need this job to cover medical expenses.
00:02:03I need this job.
00:02:04Please, please.
00:02:05Hey, Lena.
00:02:06I swear, you do not have to do this.
00:02:07I will buy her some new shoes, okay?
00:02:10What is going on here?
00:02:17What is going on here?
00:02:18Elliot.
00:02:19What brings you here?
00:02:20I can hear you from the West Wing.
00:02:22What is this about?
00:02:23Elliot.
00:02:24Grimshaw.
00:02:25Perfect timing.
00:02:26I'd like to report a bullying incident.
00:02:27Bullying?
00:02:28Mm-hmm.
00:02:29Ms. Vivian Blackwell here is abusing her power to bully us.
00:02:33Is that so?
00:02:42What?
00:02:45How dare you?
00:02:47Vivian is an excellent employee and real workhorse as head housekeeper here.
00:02:51I know her quite well.
00:02:52She's no bully.
00:02:53Mm-hmm.
00:02:54That's for sure.
00:02:55Better watch what you say on your first day.
00:02:58The Royal Family is about to start an internal investigation because of those rumors online.
00:03:03So, watch what you say and who you say to.
00:03:06You got it?
00:03:08Those two are sleeping together.
00:03:14Elliot.
00:03:15What?
00:03:16Grimshaw.
00:03:17Are you not worried about the internal investigation?
00:03:19Because you should be.
00:03:22I'm not.
00:03:23And you know why?
00:03:25Because I am King of the East Wing.
00:03:28King of the East Wing.
00:03:31Okay.
00:03:32Looks like you're going to be scrubbing every fireplace in this house by the end of the
00:03:37day.
00:03:38What?
00:03:39Avalon?
00:03:41Avalon?
00:03:44What the hell are you doing?
00:03:47It's part of my job now.
00:03:50The internet rumors are right.
00:03:52The bullying here is way out of control.
00:03:55Do you think you could find any dirt on a Vivian Blackwell and Elliot Grimshaw?
00:04:00Of course.
00:04:04Grimshaw works in property management and Blackwell is the head housekeeper.
00:04:09Here.
00:04:10Take a look.
00:04:14I know that they're sleeping together, but I don't know.
00:04:18I suspect their connections go higher up.
00:04:21We need to keep this raid going.
00:04:23Ava, do you need any help out there?
00:04:25That's my coworker.
00:04:26She cannot see.
00:04:27Leave.
00:04:28Now.
00:04:33So, I just talked to my uncle.
00:04:36You're going to be promoted to Deputy Director of Residences very soon.
00:04:40Oh my god, Elliot.
00:04:42Thank you so much, man.
00:04:44Thanks.
00:04:47I know you're not too fond of those two housemaids.
00:04:51But let's keep that low-key, okay?
00:04:53It's internal investigations.
00:04:55No joke.
00:04:57I'll be good, babe.
00:04:59I promise.
00:05:06This is my son, Ethan.
00:05:08Oh.
00:05:09Yeah.
00:05:10He's had heart issues ever since he was born.
00:05:13He means the world to me.
00:05:15Lena, you know, if you ever need any money or anything.
00:05:19Oh.
00:05:20No, I'd be happy to help.
00:05:21Search their closets.
00:05:25Whoa.
00:05:26Hey, what is the meaning of this?
00:05:28Palace is priceless.
00:05:29Fabergé egg has gone missing.
00:05:31And I know you took it.
00:05:33That's insane.
00:05:34We didn't take your egg.
00:05:35We found it in their bedding.
00:05:37What?
00:05:40I knew you were trouble, Alba.
00:05:42I just never took you as a thief of royal artifacts.
00:05:46No, Vivian, there must be some kind of misunderstanding.
00:05:48Misunderstanding?
00:05:50Look, I know you two are just poor housemaids.
00:05:53But that doesn't give you the right to help yourself to royal treasures.
00:05:57This is insane.
00:05:59Neither of us were anywhere near that egg, okay?
00:06:01Search them both.
00:06:03Who knows what other royal heirlooms they've stolen.
00:06:05This is assault.
00:06:07Why?
00:06:12That is assault.
00:06:14Why?
00:06:16So what?
00:06:18I could assault you every single day if I wanted to.
00:06:21I'm going to report you.
00:06:22Report it?
00:06:23For what?
00:06:24No one's going to believe you.
00:06:26Check the security footage.
00:06:27That'll show you that we did not take anything.
00:06:29I will.
00:06:30You want to see that you did?
00:06:32We're both going to prison.
00:06:36Wait, was that Ethan?
00:06:40Your son, you mean?
00:06:41You did have an accomplice.
00:06:43This is proof they had someone break in and steal.
00:06:46What? No, he didn't steal anything. He's just visiting.
00:06:48Just what? Visiting?
00:06:50Guards!
00:06:54What are you doing here?
00:06:55My mom's birthday. I brought her flowers.
00:06:57Liar.
00:07:01You little shit.
00:07:04I'm going to fire all of you.
00:07:06Who are you firing?
00:07:07Mr. Pierce.
00:07:11Who are you firing?
00:07:13Mr. Pierce.
00:07:14Vivian, why didn't you start working for HR?
00:07:17Mr. Pierce, these two thieves stole a priceless Fabergé egg.
00:07:21Is that so?
00:07:22Of course not, Mr. Pierce. We didn't steal anything.
00:07:24We found this in your bedroom.
00:07:27And I have security footage to prove it.
00:07:29Right. You did the right thing, Vivian.
00:07:31You were both dismissed off premises.
00:07:33On what grounds?
00:07:35That surveillance footage didn't show us stealing anything.
00:07:37She clearly planted the egg in the room to try and frame us.
00:07:40Right. So about Vivian framing you specifically.
00:07:44She's the lead housekeeper.
00:07:46Why would she go through any length to kind of frame you?
00:07:50Just because we're housemaids doesn't mean we'll sit here and accept false accusations.
00:07:53And you better have the courage to say to my face that she's right.
00:07:59You have some nerve, darling, talking to me.
00:08:02You don't know me.
00:08:04Hmm.
00:08:05Well, do you know Lord Sebastian Stonegate?
00:08:08Yes, the second son of the Starlight of Duke.
00:08:11Yes, of course, I know of him.
00:08:13But what does that have to do with you?
00:08:15He works for me.
00:08:22Lord Sebastian Stonegate works for you.
00:08:25Lord Sebastian Stonegate works for you.
00:08:28Listen, princess.
00:08:30The Duke might pimp out his son, Princess Aveline, but he would never be interested in you.
00:08:35Escort them off premises immediately.
00:08:38What?
00:08:39Stay away from my mom.
00:08:40Stop.
00:08:42Nathan.
00:08:44Nolan Pierce, you just assaulted a child.
00:08:47No, no, no.
00:08:49You did.
00:08:50Excuse me.
00:08:52This is $100,000.
00:08:54Again.
00:08:55Who pushed your son?
00:09:02Who pushed your son?
00:09:04Ava did, sir.
00:09:07Ava, I'm so sorry.
00:09:08I need the money.
00:09:09I'm sorry.
00:09:10Hey, I understand.
00:09:13She did it.
00:09:16I saw her put the egg in the room as I left.
00:09:18You little liar.
00:09:20Don't you dare put your hand on my son.
00:09:22Now, we have a witness and you have nothing.
00:09:25What do you have to say, Mr. Pierce?
00:09:27Well, I'm just gonna...
00:09:29Why? You said it was fine.
00:09:30Well, that was just a joke that you took a little too seriously.
00:09:33If you needed the money that bad, you could have just whored yourself out.
00:09:37Watch your language.
00:09:39How dare you talk to me that way?
00:09:41By the way, it's a good mother-son duo you have going on here.
00:09:45Is that how you represent the palace?
00:09:47Just saying whatever filthy thing comes into your mind?
00:09:49Watch your mouth. I'll have you kicked out as well.
00:09:51Oh, no, no, no.
00:09:53It's you that's getting thrown out of the palace, Nolan.
00:09:57Sebastian, come to the palace immediately.
00:09:59I need someone to escort Nolan Pierce from the princess.
00:10:05Is that Sebastian Stonegate the Stonegate?
00:10:09What are you, the princess?
00:10:11You, princess?
00:10:13Sure.
00:10:14And I'm the king.
00:10:18Impressioning the princess is a serious crime.
00:10:20I know, but I am the princess.
00:10:22You'll see. Sebastian will be here any minute.
00:10:24She thinks she can just summon Lord Sebastian Stonegate?
00:10:28What kind of fantasy are you living in?
00:10:30One where she thinks she's a princess, apparently.
00:10:32Maybe she can be your princess, Mr. Pierce.
00:10:34Oh, maybe.
00:10:36Just maybe. If she was a good little girl.
00:10:38Hey!
00:10:40I reconsider it.
00:10:42Get your hands off of me!
00:10:44Don't lay a finger on it.
00:10:48What?
00:10:50Don't lay a finger on her.
00:10:56Oh, you're Sebastian.
00:10:58Indeed I am.
00:11:00And this woman right here?
00:11:02This is Princess Aveline.
00:11:04I can't find him online.
00:11:06It's best to stay away from these maniacs, buddy boy.
00:11:09What did you just say to me?
00:11:11It's best to stay away from these maniacs.
00:11:13Impersonating a member of the royal family is highly illegal, if I would say.
00:11:18Thanks, Sebastian.
00:11:20I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness.
00:11:22You know our families wanted to keep us under the radar.
00:11:26As far as the Pierces go,
00:11:28they've been working out of the palace for years, but
00:11:31I've actually never interacted with them.
00:11:34I'll call the Department of Residences.
00:11:37You sure did hire a lot of actors.
00:11:41You should really try your luck in Hollywood at this point.
00:11:45Hello?
00:11:49Uh, yes.
00:11:51Yeah, I understand.
00:11:57Is everything okay, Mr. Pierce?
00:11:59Princess Aveline is leading the internal interactions.
00:12:04Um, coming forth pretty soon.
00:12:06She'll be here rapidly.
00:12:09What do we do now?
00:12:11Well, we can't let her know that we've been firing people.
00:12:16So...
00:12:18It is your lucky day.
00:12:20You can go back to work.
00:12:22I will deal with the solution later on.
00:12:26Watch your back.
00:12:32I'm sorry. You know, I should have just...
00:12:34It's okay, Sebastian.
00:12:36You know, we could fire Nolan and Vivian, if you want.
00:12:41Not yet.
00:12:43I don't have any hard evidence yet.
00:12:45Plus, someone tipped them off that I was leading the investigation.
00:12:47We need to figure out who.
00:12:49You're saying you're still going to work as a housemaid?
00:12:53Aveline...
00:12:55I can't bear the way they treat you.
00:12:57Sebastian, it's okay.
00:13:00I can take care of myself.
00:13:02Oh, and, um, could you give this check to Lena for me?
00:13:08It's an anonymous donation.
00:13:10Uh, of course, your royal highness.
00:13:25Mr. Grimshaw, please.
00:13:27If you could advance me and some of my payments for me, I would be so grateful.
00:13:30I just have medical bills I have to cover.
00:13:33Not happening, Lena.
00:13:35House policies.
00:13:37No, please, I would do anything.
00:13:39There are, indeed, quick ways to make money, Lena.
00:13:42I know some people, if you're interested.
00:13:45I...
00:13:51You have a great body, Lena.
00:13:53You should put it to use.
00:13:55Hot housemaids always have a market.
00:13:57Sebastian.
00:13:59Hey.
00:14:01I thought I gave you a check for Lena.
00:14:05Well, I passed it to the Department of Residences.
00:14:08What's wrong?
00:14:10Lena!
00:14:12Hey, you...
00:14:18Are you okay?
00:14:20I'm okay, I'm okay.
00:14:22Wait, you again?
00:14:24Why don't you stay out of my business, you bitch?
00:14:26You were gonna pay for this.
00:14:28Pay for what? She asked for this.
00:14:30Isn't that right?
00:14:32I need the money.
00:14:34They're gonna kick Ethan out of the hospital unless I can pay the last two medical bills.
00:14:36What? Didn't you get the donation?
00:14:38What donation?
00:14:40The princess. She made a very generous donation to cover the medical bills.
00:14:43Ethan's gonna be fine.
00:14:45Really?
00:14:46Yes.
00:14:47If, and that's a very big if,
00:14:49Princess Eveline did make a donation.
00:14:51It's a very big if.
00:14:53Princess Eveline did make a donation to a lowly housemaid.
00:14:55She would never get it.
00:14:57What do you mean she would never get it?
00:15:03What do I mean?
00:15:05It's the way the world works, sweetheart.
00:15:07There is no donation she's lying to you.
00:15:09Why don't you tell her to leave
00:15:11and we can get back to the fun time we were having.
00:15:13Are you sure about the donation?
00:15:15Yes, I would never lie to you.
00:15:17It's something the palace organized.
00:15:19It's something the palace organized? I even contributed.
00:15:21Oh, the palace?
00:15:23How come none of us have ever heard about it then?
00:15:27Stop messing with her little head, you fucking liar.
00:15:30I'm not lying, Lena.
00:15:32There is a donation.
00:15:34I'm not lying.
00:15:36I'm sorry, Ava. You should just go. I need the money.
00:15:38Lena.
00:15:40Hold on.
00:15:42I changed my mind.
00:15:44I see potential in you, Ava.
00:15:46Why not you stay
00:15:48and I'll pay her the money.
00:15:55I beg your pardon?
00:15:57Ava.
00:15:59You're young.
00:16:01You're sexy.
00:16:03You know how much money you can make
00:16:05using that body of yours?
00:16:09Are you okay?
00:16:11Ava, you should just go. I need the money anyway.
00:16:13Please just take me.
00:16:15Please just leave Ava alone.
00:16:17Let her go.
00:16:19The things they do for money.
00:16:21Lena, stop. Stop.
00:16:23You don't have to do this.
00:16:25Just take this.
00:16:27Put all the medical bills right on this card, okay?
00:16:31What's this?
00:16:33Whose card is this? Did you steal it?
00:16:35It has my initials on it, Vivian.
00:16:39There's millions of people in the world
00:16:41with the initials Ava Thompson.
00:16:45If you break that card, that is a criminal offense.
00:16:47What is happening here?
00:16:53What is happening here?
00:16:55Cleaning up this mess before Princess Avalon arrives?
00:16:57Yes, Uncle Nolan.
00:16:59We were having a fine time
00:17:01until she started flaunting her fake credit card.
00:17:03Goodness.
00:17:05The royal black credit card.
00:17:07Royal?
00:17:09What's a royal black card? It looks like a fake.
00:17:11This is an exclusive card for the royal members of the family
00:17:13as well as invited associates.
00:17:15What are you doing with it exactly?
00:17:17It's my card.
00:17:19Now give it back.
00:17:21Yours?
00:17:23The royal family?
00:17:25Oh, I forgot.
00:17:27You're Princess Avalon.
00:17:29It has my initials on it. It's my card.
00:17:31This is a serious matter.
00:17:33Possession of this card illegally
00:17:35is considered treason.
00:17:37So I'm just going to hang on to it
00:17:39until I can find the right owner.
00:17:41Back to work.
00:17:43Nolan Pierce, this is an order.
00:17:45Hand it over.
00:17:47What is all this noise about?
00:17:49Miss Trentham.
00:17:53Miss Trentham.
00:17:55To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:17:57Well, the investigation team was coming.
00:17:59I just figured I'd check in.
00:18:01Is everything okay?
00:18:03Missing royal card, ma'am.
00:18:05That looks like mine.
00:18:07Thanks, Nolan.
00:18:09It has your initials A and T on it.
00:18:11I really should have reached out sooner.
00:18:13Those are my initials. That's my card.
00:18:15Who is this?
00:18:17No one. It is a housemaid.
00:18:19She's claiming the card is hers, but...
00:18:21Look at her.
00:18:23It's okay. She can't use my card.
00:18:25Unless...
00:18:27Would you like to show to everybody how you contact
00:18:29your personal concierge at the Royal Sovereign Bank?
00:18:31What? Why?
00:18:35Because it's my card, my rules.
00:18:37Plus, I don't need to prove anything
00:18:39to a little filthy housemaid.
00:18:45I don't need to prove to a housemaid
00:18:47that the card is mine.
00:18:49It's not your card.
00:18:51It never was.
00:18:53That doesn't make it yours either, sweetie.
00:18:55Besides, do you really think
00:18:57that anybody
00:18:59is going to believe that a little
00:19:01peasant housemaid like you
00:19:03could own a Royal Sovereign card?
00:19:05Amelia?
00:19:07You're going too far.
00:19:09Oh.
00:19:11Cute.
00:19:13But I'm the one who calls the shots on what goes too far.
00:19:15Hmm.
00:19:17Amelia Trentum.
00:19:19Widow of John Trentum.
00:19:21Now married to David Fairfax,
00:19:23our esteemed Chief of Protocol.
00:19:25And...
00:19:27Look at you!
00:19:29Now Director of Residences.
00:19:31Seems you've always had a knack
00:19:33for, um...
00:19:35advancing your position.
00:19:41Are you...
00:19:43imposing
00:19:45something?
00:19:47And how do you know that?
00:19:49I know everyone in the palace.
00:19:51Because I am Princess Aveline.
00:19:55You?
00:19:57Princess Aveline? Oh my god!
00:19:59In your dreams.
00:20:01Somebody really needs to put you in your place.
00:20:03So, that's where you belong.
00:20:05On the floor, mopping, scrubbing.
00:20:07Dream on all day that you want to be a princess,
00:20:09but sweetie, it's not going to get you anywhere.
00:20:11Okay, that's enough, Amelia.
00:20:13What happened to the donation?
00:20:15Are you imposing something?
00:20:17How do you know that?
00:20:23Is there a donation?
00:20:25No. No. I...
00:20:27Nope. Haven't seen one.
00:20:29You're spreading lies.
00:20:31Lord Sebastian must have given the check to you.
00:20:33And you...
00:20:35What? You pocketed it?
00:20:37Miss Trenton, I need that money to save my son's life.
00:20:39Do you...
00:20:41Do you really think that I would embezzle $200,000?
00:20:43Like...
00:20:45How do you know it's $200,000?
00:20:47She said that she needed...
00:20:49$200,000 for her son's medical bills.
00:20:53So why would I take $200,000?
00:20:55$200,000?
00:20:57Well said, Miss Trenton.
00:20:59$200,000 couldn't even buy you that handbag you have.
00:21:01If it's such an insignificant sum,
00:21:03then just give it back to me.
00:21:15What's this?
00:21:17It's just a check.
00:21:19For Lena that you stole.
00:21:21Prove it, then.
00:21:23Do you think Princess Aveline is going to find out?
00:21:25About unspoken scandals?
00:21:29And who do you think is going to take the fall anyways?
00:21:31Me?
00:21:33Or the royal family?
00:21:37Here's your check, madame.
00:21:39Stop spreading your lies.
00:21:41What if I told you that
00:21:43Prince Sebastian
00:21:45actually gave me this check for Lena?
00:21:49And I just decided not to give it to her?
00:21:53You all just heard that.
00:21:55She just admitted to stealing the check.
00:21:57I didn't hear Miss Trenton say anything about a donation.
00:21:59Mind your place.
00:22:01Well done, Aveline.
00:22:03Very perceptive.
00:22:05For those of you who don't know about the check.
00:22:07I don't recall anything about a check, Miss Trentham.
00:22:09I have heard nothing about a check.
00:22:15I can't believe this is happening.
00:22:17This is a life-saving situation right now.
00:22:19A life-saving situation?
00:22:21A life-saving situation?
00:22:23I didn't realize that your life
00:22:25was that cheap.
00:22:29Hello?
00:22:31Yes, I'm Ethan's mom.
00:22:33What?
00:22:35Where?
00:22:37Okay, I'll be right there.
00:22:39Ethan just passed out at school. He's at the hospital.
00:22:41Okay, let's go.
00:22:45Aveline, you're...
00:22:47I mean,
00:22:49I checked in on your son,
00:22:51and he's in treatment now.
00:22:53Hey, don't worry.
00:22:55I covered all his medical bills.
00:22:57Thank you so much.
00:22:59Oh, you must be Ava's boyfriend, right?
00:23:01No, I'm not.
00:23:03Yes, yes, this is my boyfriend.
00:23:05I texted him on the way over here, right, Seb?
00:23:07Right, yeah.
00:23:09Oh, right, you were the one who pretended to be Lord Sebastian Stonegate before.
00:23:11Yes, yes, this is him.
00:23:13His name's also Sebastian, so it really helps sometimes.
00:23:15Lena, would you like to go see your son?
00:23:17Please.
00:23:23Thank you for playing along tonight.
00:23:25Of course. Anything you need.
00:23:27We do have to keep this up
00:23:29for a little bit longer, though.
00:23:31Do not use my real name in public, okay?
00:23:33Of course
00:23:35you're what?
00:23:37I mean, Ava.
00:23:39And if you want,
00:23:41I can have Amelia Trentham investigated.
00:23:43No, not yet.
00:23:45That'll spook the bigger fish.
00:23:47Amelia's not that important.
00:23:49So what's your plan now?
00:23:51Transfer me to the Department of Residences.
00:23:53Checkmate.
00:23:55Well played, Your Royal Highness.
00:24:07For fuck's sake, you!
00:24:09What are you doing here?
00:24:11How many dicks did you have to suck to get there?
00:24:13Oh, is that how you got your job?
00:24:15You two, sit down. Now.
00:24:25Lena, I'm so happy to see you here!
00:24:27I was so thrilled to hear about your transfer.
00:24:35That was entirely uncalled for.
00:24:37Oops.
00:24:39Didn't see the little maid there.
00:24:41Why don't you go make yourself useful
00:24:43and grab a mop?
00:24:45Oh, no, Ava, it's okay. I'll clean up.
00:24:47Yes, yes.
00:24:49Stick to what you know.
00:24:51Hold on.
00:24:53You are not gonna let this
00:24:55exquisite rosewood soak, are you?
00:24:57No.
00:24:59Remove your uniform
00:25:01and clean it up with that.
00:25:05Do it, or you're both fired.
00:25:07It's okay, Ava. It's not a big deal.
00:25:09You do not have to do that.
00:25:11Hey, she's not your personal maid.
00:25:13You can't just boss her around like that.
00:25:15Ava, that's really sweet. I don't want you to lose your job over me.
00:25:17I won't. She can't fire anyone.
00:25:19A barking dog never bites.
00:25:21Who are you calling a dog?
00:25:23There are protocols put in place about firing staff members at the palace.
00:25:25You can't do anything.
00:25:27Maybe I can't.
00:25:29But I do know people.
00:25:31And I know someone
00:25:33who is gonna fire your sorry ass.
00:25:35No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:37You're the one that's getting fired.
00:25:39I'll make sure you pay for what you've done.
00:25:41Ugh, you again?
00:25:43You aren't supposed to be here today.
00:25:49You again?
00:25:51You aren't supposed to be here today.
00:25:53How do you know that?
00:25:55Miss Trentham, Ava has been causing
00:25:57such a scene on her first day.
00:25:59She's been so disruptive.
00:26:01Somebody very important is coming today.
00:26:03You better shut up.
00:26:05Oh, okay.
00:26:07Is that why you're here?
00:26:09Wait.
00:26:11Isn't today the day
00:26:13the royal family gives out a special gift
00:26:15to one of the royal staff members?
00:26:17Right. The chosen staff member
00:26:19that gets $500,000
00:26:21and tea with the queen herself.
00:26:23You think you're gonna get that?
00:26:25Yes, of course I do.
00:26:27That should go to somebody who actually helps the palace
00:26:29not someone who sits here and lets bullying slide.
00:26:31You know what? If you keep bad-mouthing me
00:26:33I'm gonna start to think that you're just trying
00:26:35to get my attention.
00:26:39You two are done.
00:26:41Pack up your bags and get out of the palace by the end of the day.
00:26:43No, please. I apologize for Ava.
00:26:45Please, don't fire her.
00:26:47You know, I could ask him to not fire you
00:26:49but what's in it for me right now?
00:26:51Are you actually asking her for a bribe right now in front of everybody?
00:26:53Don't twist my words.
00:26:55Apologize to Miss Trentham immediately.
00:26:57Apologize? For what? Telling the truth?
00:26:59I apologize for
00:27:01this video.
00:27:03It's the internet.
00:27:09Fine. Go ahead. Post it.
00:27:11But you're gonna be the one losing your job.
00:27:13Are you threatening me?
00:27:15How adorable.
00:27:17Do you really think
00:27:19the royal family will have your back once that video is online?
00:27:21No, please, Mr. Pierce.
00:27:23Don't post the video. I apologize for Ava.
00:27:25She's young and she has her whole life ahead of her.
00:27:27Please, don't post it.
00:27:29Your apologies only count for you.
00:27:31Not her.
00:27:33Wait. You know, I have a really good idea.
00:27:35Why don't you two
00:27:37get on your knees on the floor
00:27:39and beg for my forgiveness?
00:27:41In your dreams, Amelia.
00:27:43Is that how you beg?
00:27:45Or are you just cool with all of your photos being on the internet?
00:27:47No, Miss Trentham, please. I'll do it.
00:27:49I'll do it. Just, please, forgive us.
00:27:51No, no. You don't have to do that.
00:27:53You go ahead. You post that.
00:27:55There will be serious consequences.
00:27:57Treason?
00:27:59It's a pretty serious charge.
00:28:01Right.
00:28:03Because you're Princess Aveline.
00:28:05That won't work, darling.
00:28:07If anything, we should report you
00:28:09for impersonating a member of the royal family.
00:28:11Hold on.
00:28:17Pay for it.
00:28:19Oh, my God.
00:28:21That's the latest from Pennsylvania.
00:28:23What?
00:28:25You did that.
00:28:27Did I?
00:28:29I saw it with my own eyes.
00:28:31Lena sliced it.
00:28:33Miss Trentham,
00:28:35how much does it cost?
00:28:39$500,000.
00:28:41So now,
00:28:43you owe $200,000
00:28:45for your son's medical expenses
00:28:47and $500,000
00:28:49for Miss Trentham's purse.
00:28:51Miss Trentham's purse?
00:28:53That's $700,000.
00:28:55Okay, Vivian, thank you so much for the math lesson.
00:28:57This is getting really old.
00:28:59You know what? I'm done.
00:29:03Sasha, you come downstairs right now.
00:29:05I want to tell my mom that this award
00:29:07can't go to anyone in the Department of Residences.
00:29:09Okay.
00:29:15Ava, are you really the Princess Aveline?
00:29:17Yes, I am.
00:29:19Yes, I am.
00:29:21Mr. Morrow!
00:29:23Who's that?
00:29:25It's Vincent Morrow. He works in the Treasury Department.
00:29:27I'm here to announce
00:29:29the Special Contribution Award
00:29:31on Princess Aveline's
00:29:33behalf.
00:29:35This year's Special Contribution
00:29:37Award goes to
00:29:39Amelia Trent.
00:29:41What?
00:29:43No, it can't go to her.
00:29:45Who are you to question the Queen's decision?
00:29:47Don't listen to her.
00:29:49Thank you so much for your help.
00:29:51I really appreciate it.
00:29:53Are you...
00:29:55You're bribing him right now in front of everyone.
00:29:57Are you worried about getting caught at all?
00:30:01Bribing?
00:30:03It's just a little gift from my wife.
00:30:05Nolan, can you please call the police?
00:30:07They stole from me
00:30:09and they lied and they broke my handbag.
00:30:11You seriously want to get the police involved in this?
00:30:13Mr. Pierce, please don't call the police.
00:30:15I need this job to pay medical bills for my son.
00:30:17Lena, it's okay. We didn't do any of the things they're saying we did.
00:30:19Okay, but how are we going to prove that?
00:30:21Who's going to believe us?
00:30:23I will.
00:30:25I saw Amelia cut her bag and I saw her bribing.
00:30:27You're Nora, right?
00:30:29God, I should have taken care of you so long ago.
00:30:31Don't worry, you don't have to be here for long.
00:30:33Tell Tom that I said hi.
00:30:35Who's Tom?
00:30:37The director before her.
00:30:39I recorded you cutting your bag, Amelia.
00:30:41So you're going to leave them alone
00:30:43Are you sure
00:30:45that you want to join their team?
00:30:47That director job is yours
00:30:49if you just
00:30:51delete the video,
00:30:53sweetheart.
00:30:55No.
00:30:57Give me my phone back.
00:31:01Ah! Yes!
00:31:03I won again!
00:31:05Oh my God, Tom is going to be-
00:31:07You...
00:31:09My ma wouldn't have-
00:31:11Really getting on my nerves.
00:31:13Thank you, Nora.
00:31:15I'll make sure you get justice.
00:31:17Thank you for saving her, Amy, but
00:31:19we've seen what she does in the palace.
00:31:21I don't think the three of us can take her down.
00:31:23Guards! Get them.
00:31:25No.
00:31:27Yeah.
00:31:29Get off the floor.
00:31:31Stop! Everyone stop.
00:31:33Mr. Leatherman,
00:31:35he's on his way here.
00:31:37Why is he here?
00:31:39I'm not sure. What do we want to do with them?
00:31:41Take them away.
00:31:47Ethan's medical bills.
00:31:49How am I going to pay for them now?
00:31:51I'll help you find a new job, alright? I promise.
00:31:53Thank you. This is all my fault.
00:31:55It's been like that ever since Amelia took over.
00:31:57It's either you play by their rules or you're out.
00:31:59Hello?
00:32:01Okay. Okay.
00:32:03I'll be right there.
00:32:05It's the hospital. Ethan's improving.
00:32:07Oh, that's fantastic.
00:32:09Okay, I'm going to tell Sebastian
00:32:11to drive you to the hospital right now.
00:32:13I don't know how to thank you, Ava.
00:32:15Well, hi, Ava.
00:32:17Um, there's a car waiting outside for you.
00:32:19Sam's going to drive, Elena.
00:32:21Thank you so much.
00:32:23You're Lord Sebastian Stonegate.
00:32:27You're Lord Sebastian Stonegate.
00:32:29Yes, I am. And you are?
00:32:31She used to work at the Department of Residences.
00:32:35Alright, Nora, I need details.
00:32:37Everything since Tom left.
00:32:45Oh.
00:32:47Amelia's game
00:32:49is promising promotions,
00:32:51pocketing bribes, then just
00:32:53kicking people to the curb?
00:32:55I have video proof of her taking money from different people.
00:32:57I'm sure they would love to testify.
00:32:59Great. So, what are we waiting for?
00:33:01Ah, we're still missing something.
00:33:03Her Incaside connection.
00:33:07You know what? Let's just wait until the Royal Charity Gala,
00:33:09and if we still don't have any proof,
00:33:11I'll just expose her then.
00:33:13Yes, Your Royal Highness.
00:33:21What's wrong?
00:33:23School is doing this retreat for top students,
00:33:25and I didn't make the cut.
00:33:29Don't worry, Nick.
00:33:31I'll take care of it.
00:33:35How did he make it when I didn't?
00:33:37I used every test.
00:33:39Maybe because your dad cares.
00:33:41Oh, wait! You don't have one.
00:33:43Whoa! Hey! That's enough!
00:33:45Both of you.
00:33:47Miss, are you Ethan's mother?
00:33:49I'm his mother's colleague.
00:33:51Oh. Another housemaid.
00:33:53Do you always judge kids on what their parents do?
00:33:55Of course not. Let's go.
00:33:57Wait. The retreat for the top students.
00:33:59She kicked me off for him.
00:34:03You didn't make it because you're not good enough.
00:34:05I was on the list yesterday.
00:34:07Ethan Finch, did your mother teach you to lie?
00:34:09Ethan!
00:34:11Stop.
00:34:13There has to be a better way to handle this.
00:34:15His behavior proves my point.
00:34:17I could have him expelled for this.
00:34:19Something the headmistress should hear about, no?
00:34:21You think she answers to you?
00:34:23Why don't you make a $100,000 donation?
00:34:25And then we'll talk.
00:34:27This entire school
00:34:29runs on my donation.
00:34:31You!
00:34:33Don't make me laugh.
00:34:37Sebastian.
00:34:41Pardon me.
00:34:43Are you Lord Sebastian Stonegate?
00:34:45Maybe.
00:34:47I loved your speech in the Glasgow conference.
00:34:49I would kill for a chance to do business with you.
00:34:51Thank you. Really.
00:34:57Hello.
00:34:59I'll be right there.
00:35:01Would you happen to know
00:35:03where the headmistress' office is?
00:35:05I don't believe she's in her office right now,
00:35:07but I can show you the way.
00:35:11What's the rush, if you don't mind me asking?
00:35:13It's, uh...
00:35:15It's my girlfriend.
00:35:17I can sort you.
00:35:25Could Princess Ava really be his girlfriend?
00:35:29Nick, are you okay?
00:35:31I'm okay, Mom.
00:35:33I tried to punch him.
00:35:35Who?
00:35:37You.
00:35:39I'm not doing this again. Come on, let's go.
00:35:41Wait!
00:35:45Pardon me.
00:35:49He stole my place for the retreat.
00:35:51What retreat?
00:35:53Uh, the one I told you about two days ago
00:35:55that you donated $100,000 for.
00:35:57Oh, wow.
00:35:59Bribing teachers now, are we?
00:36:01Watch your language. It's not bribery.
00:36:03You're welcome to make a donation, too.
00:36:05If you had change.
00:36:07Ethan, you're a good student,
00:36:09but the retreat
00:36:11is not for people like you.
00:36:23Lord Stonegate.
00:36:25What brings you here?
00:36:27One of your teachers is creating
00:36:29unnecessary trouble
00:36:31for Lord Stonegate's girlfriend.
00:36:33My lord.
00:36:35I'll see her through, I promise.
00:36:37Okay.
00:36:49My husband will be here shortly.
00:36:51You guys better leave.
00:36:53He's really good friends with the committee.
00:36:55Oh, your husband? What is that, number three?
00:36:57No.
00:36:59I see how you make your career advancements.
00:37:01A little housemaid like you
00:37:03wouldn't know
00:37:06There's most certainly more respectable ways
00:37:08to achieve one's goals.
00:37:10I don't need your approval.
00:37:12Oh, and guess what?
00:37:14Lord Sebastian is here with his girlfriend.
00:37:16If you wanted to, you know,
00:37:18test your luck and be a secret middle lover.
00:37:20How do you know I'm not his girlfriend?
00:37:22Because if you were the girlfriend, you better lay low.
00:37:24Princess Aveline is a handful.
00:37:29Lord Sebastian!
00:37:31Who are you calling a handful?
00:37:35Now, who are you calling a handful?
00:37:37What is the meaning of this?
00:37:39It's her!
00:37:41She's the troublemaker.
00:37:43Leave now, or I'll expel your son.
00:37:45Can he do that?
00:37:47Can he?
00:37:49No, Lord Sebastian. He can't.
00:37:51David,
00:37:53show what you're capable of.
00:37:55She's nobody.
00:37:57Shut up!
00:37:59Is it because of Lord Sebastian?
00:38:01She literally told us
00:38:03about her plan to seduce him.
00:38:05Do you even know who she is?
00:38:07You're making a huge mistake,
00:38:09Olivia.
00:38:11Accepting donations without consulting the board
00:38:13is embezzlement.
00:38:15I didn't take it.
00:38:17She gave it to me. It's her fault.
00:38:19You backstabbing little bitch!
00:38:21You told me that if I gave you a donation
00:38:23that you would save a spot for my son on the...
00:38:25Enough!
00:38:27Your Royal Highness,
00:38:29how would you like me to handle this?
00:38:33Is she
00:38:35really the princess?
00:38:43You said she was your girlfriend.
00:38:45My girlfriend can't be the princess.
00:38:47I mean, I thought
00:38:49the entire country knew of Sebastian's intentions
00:38:51to marry me.
00:38:53Isn't that right, Sebastian?
00:38:55That's right, Your Royal Highness.
00:38:57Now,
00:38:59you owe me a royal black card,
00:39:01don't you?
00:39:03And a check for $200,000.
00:39:05Please.
00:39:07Please what?
00:39:09I haven't even begun to get into the countless
00:39:11insults you've hurled at me.
00:39:13And didn't you try to fire me?
00:39:15And Lena, many times.
00:39:17Your Royal Highness, please,
00:39:19just let me beg for your forgiveness.
00:39:21Give me a second chance.
00:39:23I'm all out of chances for you.
00:39:25You can think over your actions in prison.
00:39:27Guards!
00:39:29Royal spoiled
00:39:31little brat!
00:39:33Let go of me!
00:39:35You guys will all pay for this!
00:39:37You'll rot in hell!
00:39:43You okay?
00:39:45I'm okay, but your face...
00:39:47It's fine.
00:39:49It's just a scratch.
00:39:51It'll heal.
00:39:53Your Highness, this was all her doing.
00:39:55I took no part in this.
00:39:57But what are your intentions
00:39:59with Sebastian? I am aware
00:40:01your estate's been struggling.
00:40:03Your Royal Highness is true.
00:40:05I've experienced many financial difficulties as of late,
00:40:07but if I could only... In your dreams.
00:40:09You're lucky I don't send you to prison with him.
00:40:11Nick,
00:40:13do you have anything you'd like to say to Ethan?
00:40:15I'm sorry.
00:40:17Apology accepted, but...
00:40:21Apology accepted, but...
00:40:23Ethan will be going to the retreat.
00:40:25Not Nick.
00:40:27Excellent.
00:40:29And where do you think you are going?
00:40:31Oh, I'm...
00:40:33I'm so sorry, Your Royal Highness.
00:40:35I really do appreciate my position here.
00:40:37How unfortunate. I don't feel comfortable
00:40:39with my money paying people like you.
00:40:41Fire her. She's not fit to be a teacher.
00:40:43Yes, Your Highness.
00:40:45No! No, please!
00:40:47Amelia's been off the radar for weeks.
00:40:49I don't want anything to hurt to this tower.
00:40:51Why don't you go buy something?
00:41:03It's not that deep.
00:41:07Here, just make sure you put this on twice a day, okay?
00:41:09Do I have something to do with this?
00:41:11I don't know.
00:41:13Here, just make sure you put this on twice a day, okay?
00:41:15Do I have something on my face?
00:41:17Oh, no.
00:41:19Oh, sorry.
00:41:25Thank you
00:41:27for everything.
00:41:29You don't have to do any of it.
00:41:31But I want to.
00:41:35And, you know,
00:41:37if it bothers you,
00:41:39you know what people say about us,
00:41:41we deal with it.
00:41:43Am I interrupting something?
00:41:45No, Nora.
00:41:49Did you finish that task that I gave you earlier?
00:41:51Yes, Your Royal Highness.
00:41:53I mailed the Royal Charity Gala invites
00:41:55and I checked in with the Secretary's office.
00:41:57Great work, Nora.
00:41:59You know what? I think I'm going to go check on
00:42:01Lena and Ethan
00:42:03and then we'll get her dress for the gala.
00:42:05Eva, you've done so much for me already,
00:42:07but I don't want you to spend more money on me.
00:42:09Oh, it's okay.
00:42:11Just think of this as a
00:42:13welcome back to the palace gift.
00:42:15But look at this place.
00:42:17I've never been anywhere like this.
00:42:19Hey, you'll do just fine.
00:42:21Look at this one.
00:42:23This one looks stunning on you.
00:42:25Do you want to try it on?
00:42:27Not your style.
00:42:29I'm sorry?
00:42:31Would you like to try this one instead?
00:42:33Oh, sorry.
00:42:35No, we're actually shopping for a gala.
00:42:37Oh, the gala.
00:42:39Well, then we don't have anything here for you.
00:42:41What is your problem?
00:42:47Well, in case you didn't know,
00:42:49this is a members-only boutique.
00:42:53I'm a member.
00:42:55Silver. Wow.
00:42:57Sure. Enjoy.
00:42:59It's okay, Eva. Let's just look at these.
00:43:03Where's your newest collection?
00:43:05Miss Blackwell,
00:43:07I will go get that for you immediately.
00:43:09That's not fair.
00:43:11You were here first.
00:43:13It's okay. I'm used to it.
00:43:15Oh, this is nice.
00:43:17Lovely choice, Miss Blackwell.
00:43:19Lovely choice.
00:43:21It's fine. This would look really good on you, too.
00:43:23I'll take this one, too.
00:43:25What the hell is your problem?
00:43:27What the hell is your problem?
00:43:29What's your language?
00:43:31Miss Blackwell is a Diamond member.
00:43:33Oh, and that makes her better than us?
00:43:35What are they?
00:43:37Silver.
00:43:39Looks like I am superior to you,
00:43:41at least in this shop.
00:43:45I'll take both of those.
00:43:47Take a seat, Miss Blackwell.
00:43:49I'll get these wrapped up for you immediately.
00:43:51No, if you check out those dresses,
00:43:53I will make sure to shut down this boutique today.
00:43:55I'm sorry.
00:43:57Who do you think you are, lady?
00:43:59I'm the largest shareholder of this company.
00:44:01The largest shareholder?
00:44:03Then how come you're just a silver member?
00:44:05That makes no sense.
00:44:07Call your manager. Ask.
00:44:09Do it.
00:44:11She's just a housemaid.
00:44:13Yes, hello.
00:44:15I would like to see if there's a shareholder by the name of...
00:44:17Ava Thompson.
00:44:19That's not her name.
00:44:21Ava Thompson. I see.
00:44:23Thank you. Unfortunately,
00:44:25we do not have a name
00:44:27Ava Thompson on our shareholder list.
00:44:29Yeah, probably not, because that's not my name.
00:44:31What's your name, then?
00:44:33My name is Aveline Thornwood.
00:44:37Sorry.
00:44:39I forgot about your little princess diaries fantasy.
00:44:41Ava,
00:44:43you should really consider checking
00:44:45into a mental institution. You're not well.
00:44:47Sebastian, come to the address
00:44:49I just texted you, please.
00:44:51No, idiot.
00:44:53She pulls this all the time.
00:44:55What are you still doing here?
00:44:57Go wrap my dresses.
00:45:03Unfortunately, this is not
00:45:05registering.
00:45:07What? Try again.
00:45:11Deeply sorry, Miss Black.
00:45:13Do you happen to have another card?
00:45:15Hold on!
00:45:17Hi, honey.
00:45:19The card isn't working.
00:45:23What?
00:45:25What is that supposed to mean?
00:45:31You know what?
00:45:33These dresses are actually
00:45:35made for peasants,
00:45:37and totally not my vibe, so...
00:45:39Miss Blackwell, your card!
00:45:41It seems to be your lucky day,
00:45:43ladies.
00:45:45I wouldn't say that.
00:45:47What is this stain?
00:45:49Was it you?
00:45:51No. We didn't do anything.
00:45:53It was you. I saw you.
00:45:55We didn't do that.
00:45:57You're going to pay for this.
00:45:59Go check the security footage. I'll go with you.
00:46:01You do not have the right to check surveillance.
00:46:03Now, you are either going to pay for this,
00:46:05or I call the police.
00:46:07No one's calling the police.
00:46:09No one's calling the police.
00:46:13You okay?
00:46:15Alright.
00:46:17Show me the documents from a shareholder.
00:46:19Right here.
00:46:21Small issue.
00:46:23These are issued under my name.
00:46:25Fine. But I need you to have my back on this one, okay?
00:46:27Always, Your Royal Highness.
00:46:29Who is that?
00:46:31He is our largest shareholder.
00:46:33This here is my girlfriend,
00:46:35to whom you have both made
00:46:37very upset.
00:46:39I demand an explanation. Now.
00:46:41Of course, sir.
00:46:43I'll personally see to this matter immediately.
00:46:47I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:46:49I'll get them wrapped up for you right now.
00:46:51I deeply apologize.
00:46:53Why the sudden change in attitude?
00:46:55Your employee's lack of respect is shocking.
00:46:57You should fire him.
00:46:59What? Fire me?
00:47:01You can't fire me.
00:47:03You were the one that told me
00:47:05silver members aren't worth our time.
00:47:07Frankly, I don't see why we keep the shop open.
00:47:09Please don't do this, ma'am.
00:47:11I'm afraid it's too late for that.
00:47:19My credit cards are frozen.
00:47:23No one's not picking up.
00:47:25No one's not picking up.
00:47:33Vincent!
00:47:35How are you?
00:47:37I miss you.
00:47:41Alright, so.
00:47:43As you can see, I froze Elliot
00:47:45and Nolan's credit cards,
00:47:47along with some of their assets.
00:47:49And then here is the evidence
00:47:51for their investment.
00:47:53Thank you, Sebastian.
00:47:55You know, I
00:47:57was thinking of later going to pick up
00:47:59Nina and I's dresses from the shop.
00:48:01Would you like to come in?
00:48:03Yeah, of course, Your Royal Highness.
00:48:09You look really stunning, Your Royal Highness.
00:48:13Aveline,
00:48:15I got you something.
00:48:17Hope you like it.
00:48:19Oh, they're stunning.
00:48:21Sebastian, you didn't have to do that.
00:48:23But,
00:48:25I wanted to.
00:48:27I know.
00:48:29Get out of my way!
00:48:35Where are we?
00:48:39I'm terribly sorry, but
00:48:41it's not possible to customize a dress
00:48:43in less than 24 hours.
00:48:45I'll pay double.
00:48:47It's not about money.
00:48:49I'm sorry, but this is another client.
00:48:51It's mine now.
00:48:53Like I said, I'll pay double.
00:48:55Put the dress down, Vivian.
00:48:57Oh my gosh,
00:48:59you again.
00:49:01That's my dress. Please give it back.
00:49:03If you insist on taking this dress,
00:49:05I'll have to call the police.
00:49:07Ugh!
00:49:17Can I please fire her now?
00:49:19No,
00:49:21not yet.
00:49:23I have plans for her tomorrow night.
00:49:27Oh, it's for you.
00:49:29Mm!
00:49:31Nora! Hi!
00:49:33What? Wait, slow down. Stop.
00:49:37What?
00:49:39Okay, yeah, just keep looking.
00:49:41I'll be right back.
00:49:43What was that about?
00:49:47Apparently,
00:49:49someone contacted the global press,
00:49:51saying they're going to expose the unspoken scandal at the palace.
00:49:53They scheduled an interview for two days from now.
00:49:55Who's the leak?
00:49:57Most likely
00:49:59Vincent Morrow.
00:50:01That's not a surprise.
00:50:03It's like the big boss is finally showing its true colors.
00:50:05I'll get it Morrow for tomorrow.
00:50:09It's planned.
00:50:11I'll see you then.
00:50:13The payout's huge, baby.
00:50:15More than enough cash
00:50:17for both of us to live like royalty
00:50:19far away from here.
00:50:23I need you
00:50:25to help me get rid of that Rafa Thompson.
00:50:35Look at you,
00:50:37all dressed up.
00:50:39Boss?
00:50:41You are looking sharp
00:50:43and those earrings are something else.
00:50:45Thank you, Nora.
00:50:47At your service,
00:50:49Your Royal Highness.
00:50:53I told you
00:50:55I wanted the most expensive dress,
00:50:57not this cheap, ugly knockoff!
00:51:05Eva!
00:51:35Hi, um,
00:51:37I can't find the dress that you mentioned anywhere.
00:51:39Are you sure it's in the dressing room?
00:51:43I swear you put it right there.
00:51:45Avalon, the surveillance cameras are broken.
00:51:47Eva, I'm so sorry.
00:51:49I'll pay you back.
00:51:51Nonsense, it was a gift.
00:51:53It's all my fault.
00:51:55No, hey, if it's anybody's fault, the thieves.
00:51:57Vivian, you are killing it with this dress.
00:51:59A what?
00:52:01This whole thing?
00:52:03Since when do you have access
00:52:05to their appointment-only showroom?
00:52:07It's just a dress.
00:52:09Just a dress?
00:52:11Vivian, Lumiere Othier is the Queen's go-to.
00:52:13I know.
00:52:15That's Eva's gift.
00:52:19Vivian, the dress belongs to me.
00:52:21Return it now.
00:52:23This is a Lumiere Othier.
00:52:25She's just a housemaid.
00:52:27You can't afford something like this.
00:52:29A housemaid?
00:52:31You're claiming the dress is hers?
00:52:33Vivian, I'm not here for your mockery.
00:52:35Give me my dress back now.
00:52:37I suggest
00:52:39you leave
00:52:41before you embarrass yourself any further.
00:52:47Leave my mom alone.
00:52:51You little shit.
00:52:53Back off.
00:52:55What are you doing here?
00:52:57You're supposed to be at the doctor's today.
00:52:59Why are you calling security?
00:53:01Because your little bastard assaulted me.
00:53:03I didn't hit you.
00:53:05You humiliated my mom, stole her dress,
00:53:07and now you're lying to us.
00:53:09Ethan, we don't solve our problems with violence.
00:53:11Ms. Blackwell, I apologize for my son's behavior.
00:53:13I'm feeling really sick.
00:53:15Okay?
00:53:17I need to go to the emergency room.
00:53:19And you're going to be the one paying for my medical bills.
00:53:23What? That's ridiculous.
00:53:25You shoved me first.
00:53:27I didn't shove her. I saw nothing.
00:53:29I didn't see Vivian do anything to you.
00:53:31How could you do this?
00:53:33You know what? Ava will believe me.
00:53:35Oh, you mean your little housemaid friend who likes to play princess?
00:53:37Please.
00:53:39Mom, Ava is the princess.
00:53:41What? Princess Aveline?
00:53:43Your mom is friends with Princess Aveline?
00:53:45She really is the princess. Lord Sebastian Stonegate was with her,
00:53:47and they funded my school.
00:53:49She'll make this right.
00:53:51Your phone isn't working.
00:53:53It's okay, Ethan. Let's not trouble Ava anymore.
00:53:55Why don't you
00:53:57remove your dress,
00:53:59do a little strip dance,
00:54:01shake that ass,
00:54:03and I'll record the video and
00:54:05stop.
00:54:07I'll record and stop.
00:54:11You.
00:54:15I wouldn't cause a scene at a gala, Vivian.
00:54:17You okay, Alina?
00:54:19I'm okay, but the dress.
00:54:21Take off that dress, thief.
00:54:23This is my dress. I bought it.
00:54:25You didn't buy it. You stole that from the dressing room.
00:54:27This is from La Miere Atelier, okay?
00:54:29You can't afford something like this.
00:54:31I bought it for her, Vivian.
00:54:33You have no proof.
00:54:35Oh, I can. And I will.
00:54:37But this is your last chance.
00:54:39Vivian, you either take off the dress and we forget about this,
00:54:41or I bring out the proof and we call the police.
00:54:43You do know how much it's worth,
00:54:45don't you?
00:54:49You can't prove anything unless you have the receipt.
00:54:51Do you have the receipt?
00:54:53Indeed I do.
00:54:55It has the Lumiere Altier logo on it.
00:54:57Do you always carry a receipt around with you?
00:54:59What, you're just waiting for people to question
00:55:01the authenticity of your dress?
00:55:03Besides, La Miere Atelier
00:55:05switched to paperless two years ago.
00:55:07It says 2022.
00:55:09What? I can't wear a dress
00:55:11I bought a while ago?
00:55:15Look, Vivian, this is a royal event after all,
00:55:17so I don't want to make things ugly.
00:55:19Even for you.
00:55:21When I bought the dress, I had the designer embroider
00:55:23Lena's name on the hem.
00:55:25So if you're still insisting that this dress is yours,
00:55:27I'd be happy to ask your friends to check it out for you.
00:55:29Stop.
00:55:31I can't believe she stole the dress.
00:55:33What happened?
00:55:35They're accusing me of stealing something.
00:55:37Which she did.
00:55:39Vince.
00:55:41My sincere apologies,
00:55:43miss.
00:55:45How about I purchase this dress
00:55:47and we'll call it a day?
00:55:49Well, I'm afraid that won't be possible.
00:55:51You are putting me on the spot here.
00:55:53Indeed, I am.
00:55:55What if we both take a step back,
00:55:57I'm willing to pay double for this dress,
00:55:59and
00:56:01I will owe you one.
00:56:03How's that?
00:56:05Mr. Vincent, you overestimate your importance.
00:56:07Your offers mean nothing to me.
00:56:13You...
00:56:15Shut up!
00:56:19You've embarrassed me enough.
00:56:21Apologize.
00:56:23Now.
00:56:27I'm sorry.
00:56:29I couldn't hear you.
00:56:31I'm sorry for the dress.
00:56:33Not to me.
00:56:35Vivian.
00:56:39I'm sorry, Lena. It's okay.
00:56:41Is that it?
00:56:43What about all those insults?
00:56:45That's not a part of the...
00:56:49I...
00:56:51I'm sorry
00:56:53for everything.
00:56:57Are we good now?
00:56:59You mentioned doing me a favor.
00:57:01I did. What do you have in mind?
00:57:03Tell me about your palace connections.
00:57:05I can do that,
00:57:07but not here. If you'd follow me.
00:57:09Wait, wait, Eva, you can't go with him.
00:57:11It's okay. Don't worry. I'll be right back.
00:57:15Okay, Ethan, go find Sebastian now.
00:57:21After you.
00:57:25Don't let anyone in.
00:57:27Yes, sir.
00:57:35So can you tell me about your connections in the palace?
00:57:41What's the rush?
00:57:43May I offer you a drink first?
00:57:45You think I might poison you?
00:57:47There's a whole party outside.
00:57:49I'm not stupid.
00:57:57So, can you...
00:58:03I'm not stupid.
00:58:05But it looks like you are.
00:58:07You bastard.
00:58:11Ethan, hey.
00:58:13What's wrong? Hey, Tifa. She went with Vincent.
00:58:15Where? They went that way.
00:58:19You bastard.
00:58:21Do you not know who I am?
00:58:23You're a bitch.
00:58:25I will ruin you.
00:58:27Get the fuck
00:58:29away from me!
00:58:31Hey, you okay? What happened?
00:58:33Just get me out of here, okay?
00:58:35Okay.
00:58:41I didn't do anything, I swear.
00:58:51Avalon.
00:58:53Hey.
00:58:55Are you feeling okay? Do you need anything?
00:58:57I'm okay. Thanks to you.
00:58:59I thought I lost you today.
00:59:01Can you promise me
00:59:03you won't do anything like that ever again?
00:59:05I'm okay. I promise.
00:59:07What if I was late?
00:59:09What if Ethan never found me?
00:59:11So what if?
00:59:13It's fashion.
00:59:15I know you'll always
00:59:17be there for me.
00:59:19I'll never leave your side.
00:59:27I should go.
00:59:29No, Nora.
00:59:31What have you got?
00:59:33Well, I called the police and they said that Vincent and Vivian
00:59:35are still around, so they'll call us when they find them.
00:59:37Good.
00:59:41Careful.
00:59:43Fucking Stonegate.
00:59:45If I see him again,
00:59:47I'm gonna kill him.
00:59:49I'd like to see you try.
00:59:51Hello, Stonegate.
00:59:53What a surprise.
00:59:55What brings you here?
00:59:59The police are on their way for you both.
01:00:01Look, let's just talk.
01:00:03I didn't know she was your woman.
01:00:05I can apologize.
01:00:07You assaulted the princess.
01:00:09An apology won't cut it.
01:00:11Princess?
01:00:13You told me she was just a maid.
01:00:15I was undercover as a maid to investigate the scandal,
01:00:17and let's just say it was
01:00:19educational.
01:00:21Eva,
01:00:23you're really the princess?
01:00:25Yes, I am, but don't worry.
01:00:27Nothing will change.
01:00:29Well, you really should call her your royal highness.
01:00:31Don't listen to him. I'm still just Eva to you, okay?
01:00:35You
01:00:39allowed workplace bullying,
01:00:41started an internet smear campaign,
01:00:43and tried to defame my family.
01:00:45I hope you're ready for a long
01:00:47stay in prison, because I will personally
01:00:49make sure that you end up there.
01:00:51And you'll be
01:00:53joining him.
01:00:55Sebastian, could you take care of them
01:00:57and I'll meet you back at the party?
01:00:59It'd be my pleasure.
01:01:03No!
01:01:07We've been running this investigation for a year
01:01:09and I just...
01:01:11I really didn't see any other way of uncovering the truth.
01:01:13I am so sorry
01:01:15for keeping you in the dark.
01:01:17Your royal highness, I...
01:01:19No, I'm still Eva.
01:01:21Eva, you don't have to apologize to me.
01:01:23I'm just...
01:01:25I'm so grateful
01:01:27for everything you've done for me.
01:01:29You know what? Let's go to the party.
01:01:31I think we've earned it.
01:01:33Okay.
01:01:35Mama!
01:01:39Sebastian.
01:01:41Your majesty.
01:01:43Your majesty.
01:01:45You must see me.
01:01:47Aveline told me so much about you.
01:01:49Walk with me, dear.
01:01:51And you must tell me how Aveline
01:01:53pulled off being a housemaid.
01:01:55She never even picked up after we slept as a child.
01:01:57Shall we?
01:01:59Your royal highness?
01:02:01I do love it when you call me that.
