01x02 - Wrong and Strong

[bunniefuu]

He called me for the
first time in 20 years.

There's something
I need you to know.

Someone is trying to hurt
the company, to hurt me.

[Nina] I don't care.

I just got a call.
My dad collapsed.

Are you refusing to obey a lawful
instruction from an officer?

They are greedy gold-diggers.

What are they hiding?

I leave all my shares in the
company to Nina and Simon.

Wait, wait, wait. What?

You b*tch!

We are at w*r.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[sighs]

[breathes deeply]

[Simon] Why do we need
to be in so early?

- I was wondering the same thing.
- Wow.

- Our company's really running on BMT.
- Looks like it.

- I guess Brits start work later.
- Mmm.

Oh, wait, here's Maureen.

Nina.

We weren't expecting
you this early.

I can see that.

What's this?

Are you packing?

Listen, I was
Stephen's secretary.

I'm sure you'll want to
find someone of your own.

Maureen... you know everything
about this business.

You've been with him since
almost the beginning.

I need you.

No, you don't.

Look, Stephen was very
kind to me in his will.

Maybe it's time for
me to take a break.

Give me a few weeks,
a couple of months.

I just need some
sort of continuity.

Please.

- A couple of months. Okay.
- Great.

And can you send an
email out for me?

All-staff meeting, 11:00 am.

I expect everyone
to be there on time.

I'll make that clear.

[phone vibrates]

[sucks teeth] Let's go!

You think this will work?

She's the best in London.

This will is rock solid.

They said these things are
open to interpretation.

I've had a chance to go over
the paperwork thoroughly.

Your late husband crossed every
T and dotted every single I.

There are no loopholes?

The will was witnessed,
registered, plus the video,

which doesn't indicate
any infirmity or duress.

There are no viable grounds
to challenge the legitimacy.

What am I supposed to do?
How am I supposed to live?

I'd advise you to talk to
an estate planning lawyer.

But Mr Richards has ensured that
you have a home and an income...

Income? What am I supposed
to do with 20K a month?

I am sympathetic, but
in the circumstances,

now might be the time to
think about... downsizing.

- Who do you think you're talking to?
- Mrs Richards...

You're out of your damn mind.

[door slams]

We came to you for a solution.

Yes. And on these
facts, you won't win.

Anyone who tells you otherwise
is just out for a payday.

[theme music playing]

[server] That'll be
£7.90, then, please.

[reader beeps]

You're gonna k*ll
that audition, babe.

You're damn right.

Oh. Sorry, shall I try
that again? [chuckles]

[reader beeps]

- Sorry, declined.
- Seriously?

- Do you have another card?
- Yeah, but...

It's all right. I've got this.

[reader beeps]

[Wanda] Cheers.

What was that? Was it
because of the will?

[Claudia] We're not quitters.

Mum, get real. You
heard what she said.

Don't talk to me
like we're size.

I'm sorry...

- But I'm out.
- What?

You want to give it
to them on a plate?

Mum, they already have it.

Dad gave it to them.

Flair & Glory is ours,

and they'll get no peace until
they give it back. You hear?

This is what's gonna happen.

You're gonna walk
into that office,

and you're gonna show that
girl that this is your house,

and she don't get to put her
foot under the table. Understood?

[The Plan by Sway
Dasafo playing]

And tell myself
that I'm the best

I know exactly who I am

I ain't accepting nothin' less

We rose from the
bottom to the top

We ain't about to stop

Put the whole globe on smash

Put the planet on lock...

[applause]

[Nina] My goal...

My goal is to
minimise disruption.

Flair & Glory is a legacy brand,

and I'm not here to mess
with what y'all have built.

- Yes.
- Are there gonna be redundancies?

Do we all need to start
looking for new jobs?

I'm familiarising myself with everything,
but I wouldn't listen to rumours.

Is that a yes or a no, though?

It's a "bear with me".

The thing that makes Flair
special is that we're a family.

That's right. Flair
& Glory is a family,

- and you...
- [Nina] I hear you.

I do.

Stephen Richards, my father,

built something
very special here.

And my father put me in charge

because he believed I am the
best person to run this place.

If you trusted him, then
you have to trust me.

No business can survive with
infighting, so let me be clear.

I'm the boss,

and that's how we're
going to move forward.

[applause]

[scoffs]

Bullshit.

That was a good speech.

They're a tough crowd, but
I'm sure you'll win them over.

Thank you. I appreciate
the vote of confidence.

Hey, Andre.

You know, the thing about good leadership,
Andre, is that it starts from the top.

Sure. Er...

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

So, when the CFO and the
Deputy CEO don't stroll in

until practically the
middle of the day,

it doesn't set the best
example now, does it?

Understood.

I'm here to assist
with whatever you need.

Great. I need access
to everything.

Business papers, inventory
lists, cost reports, R&D,

accounts, employee records.

I want a full overview of
all of Flair's activities.

- Has the board approved access to...
- I'm the CEO,

and my brother and I hold
the majority interest

in this company,
in case you forgot.

Yes, boss. I'll have
those records sent up.

Wonderful.

Nina, there's something
you need to see.

[Simon] "F&G Tru Condition
burnt all my edges off."

"F&G Tru Condition made me
look like a chemo patient."

Girl, her edges really are gone.

This page is amateur hour.

There's only 146
members in this group.

Nin, you know you don't mess
with a Black woman's edges.

[sighs] I know.

We need to get this shut down.

Time to put my
Deputy CEO to work.

[snorts] That's his title?

[Nina scoffs]

[mobile beeps]

Maureen, can you get
Gus in here, please?

- Oh, Gus, thanks for coming in.
- Hey.

Dad didn't allow food in here.

[Simon] Okay...

I'll give you both
a second to talk.

Gus, hey, have a seat.

Okay.

Listen, we have a problem.

There's a group online making
some serious allegations

about one of our products.

I need you to look into
it, handle the situation,

and get the page taken down.

[scoffs] I'm not
some errand boy.

Right. You're my number two,

and while I get up to speed,
I need you to step up.

You know the lie of
the land here, I don't.

Yeah, that's for sure.

[Nina scoffs]

This is awkward for everyone.

The will was a shock,

but Stephen did what he did, and
now we have to work together.

[waitress] I put some extra
collagen in your smoothie.

Thank you.

And, oh, my God, your video
about winter skin saved me.

That oil facial thing? I haven't
had a break out for weeks.

Ah, yes, girl!

Well, I've got another one
coming out soon that you'll love.

Cool.

[Gus] I hate them.

- Who do they think they are?
- Are you okay?

To come and disrespect
me like that.

- They must be mad.
- Shh! Gus...

Coming into our house, taking our
things, and we're supposed to just smile.

Hear this. She calls me,
summons me into Dad's office,

and tells me she wants me to
handle some products issue.

- Wait, what are the issues?
- Some crap on Facebook.

- Nothing.
- Okay.

[sighs]

I can't stay there.

[sighs] Well, maybe give it
some time to settle down?

Mum's still trying
to overturn the will.

This is madness.

Why would he do this?

- I was supposed to take over.
- Gus, it's...

And to top it off, the
FEDs wrote to me today.

"Officer acted in accordance
with force policy."

How many times have
I been pulled over?

I'm done with everything.

What does that mean?

[sighs]

[chuckles]

Simon.

Claudia.

What's that look? We're family.

Right. Yeah, erm...

You wanna...

Sit.

[both giggle]

- You know I need your expertise.
- Girl, bye!

Your lace front is a
masterwork and you know it.

- Well, only the best.
- Mmm-hmm.

So, what are you doing out here?

- Hmm? They couldn't find you an office?
- Ugh.

I'm not an office kind of guy.

So, how are you gonna run
the whole company? Hmm?

Or is it just your sister
doing the business?

And we were having such
a fun conversation.

This can be fun, too.

Simon...

You don't have to take on
all this responsibility

if you don't want to.

If we put our heads together,
we can work something out.

Like what?

Figure a way to break the will.

Your sister can't
force you to accept it.

- We could even...
- Stop.

- But...
- You wanna talk about the will,

Claudia, talk to the lawyers.

- Don't pump me for information.
- [chuckles]

- I wasn't trying to...
- Girl...

This queen has been
to the rodeo before.

Don't try to play me.

Cute shoes.

[Solitude by Lila Iké playing]

Peace of mind

That's just what
I seek to find...

[Nina] Oh, Maureen.

Here's more of that
paperwork you requested.

It's a fire hazard.

Stephen used to say if you
can't hold it in your hand,

- it doesn't exist.
- [Nina laughs]

What was he like as a boss?

Direct.

He was always very fair with me.

Right.

Do I have access to his
emails, call logs, et cetera?

- IT are working on it.
- Okay.

You... You've also had another call
from Gavin Heaton, that journalist.

He wants your response
to the products issue.

No. Decline.

He was here, you know, the
night Stephen collapsed.

He'd interviewed him.

It's still a no, but maybe we
can circle back in a few months.

Okay.

[Gideon] There is no-one better
than you to run that place.

- Gideon...
- I see that spark.

Your dad was the same. He would
never back down from a challenge.

- I am nothing like him.
- Well, you didn't know him.

You got that right.

Was there anything bothering
him before he died?

Things had been
strained between us

after I was... forced out of the
company and Claudia got her way.

I mean... the books are a mess.

Margins are down. Oh,
and the overheads...

Stephen was more "big picture".

I tried while I was there, but I
can imagine what it looks like now.

[sighs]

Erm...

He called me.

When?

The night he died.

I always thought
there'd be a time for...

Answers from him.

Six months ago, he
changed everything.

Had me witness and
execute a whole new will.

What was different
about the old will?

[sighs] You and Simon
weren't mentioned at all.

[chuckles]

It all went to Claudia
and their kids.

[sighs]

Why the change?

[Gideon] I have no idea.

I asked, but like I said, he...

He kept his own counsel
about these things.

[Nina] Hmm.

[muffled office chatter]

[muffled ringing]

[muffled ringing]

[inaudible]

- Are you not gonna get that?
- Sorry.

Stephen Ri... Sorry,
Nina Richards's office.

So he wants us to
inherit this? Why?

I don't know what it is,
but I know I don't like it.

Hey... Hey, listen. I know...

I know that I forced
you into this.

London air is sh*t for my skin.

Girl, what about
your new accountants?

- What did they say?
- [sighs]

Totally incompetent record keeping
for the past year... Come in.

You should have
everything you need.

I'm still missing the cost
reports for the last three years.

I inherited a lot of
this mess from Gideon,

but I've implemented a
cloud-based back-up system and...

I'm not questioning your work.

Why did Stephen keep spending?

Excuse me?

Well, I'm still sorting
through the numbers,

but it's clear that the profits
were down, often losses,

and yet, you guys moved into
these crazy expensive new offices.

You don't know your
father very well.

- Meaning?
- He listened to no-one.

He had this vision in his head.

Growth, expansion into
Europe, into North America.

[scoffs]

Well, never mind the
reality of things.

I still need those cost reports.

You'll have them.

[footsteps approach]

You're still in bed?

How was, erm, your audition?

Waste of my frickin' time.

I'm sorry, babe.

I don't even know why
they called me in.

It's like I never
even had a chance.

[door slams]

[Boss Moves by Jay 8lue playing]

[phone vibrating]

[sighs] Jeez...

[panting]

Hey.

[Wanda] Have you been
to see Mum this week?

[Alesha] Hi, Wanda,
how are you today?

[scoffs] Don't "hey" me.
Mum needs our support.

I've been busy with work.

Ugh, yeah, posting about
freebies is not work.

Er, what would you know?

Is this your fourth or
your fifth internship?

Seriously?

You know what? You're being
really irritating today.

But I'm not gonna be irritated.
I'll call Mum later, Okay?

Alesha, my card
was declined today!

These people are trying
to take what's ours!

- I know.
- Good!

Because I'm not letting them
mess with our trust funds.

They're not trustees.

They can't do anything
with our trust funds.

Well, I don't care.
I... I want them gone.

Just call Mum!

Today.

[hip-hop music
playing on stereo]

Still here?

What's up with you?

You need to go back to work.

Who are you calling?

- [Claudia] These are nice.
- [woman] Yes.

- Mmm.
- The detailing would suit you so much.

Mmm! Yeah. I've got the
right outfit for this, too.

Give us a minute.

[door closes]

Blowing up my phone and
now following me, Dre.

You're too grown to
be acting like this.

I messed up, but I
can make it up to you.

- I can get rid of Nina and Simon.
- Really?

Do it now. I'm waiting.

It's not that simple.

Oh... Chat, chat, chat.

You know I can't take
your chat to the bank.

What if... [scoffs]

What if we get you more shares?

Shares from where?

Stephen's family
won't sell to me.

I'm working on it.

We have to work together.

No. Bring me more
shares, then we'll talk.

He's leaving.

I want to try this one. Yeah.

[Lily] It's been a great month.

Web impressions are up, and you
hit a site record last week.

Ugh. That's what I like to hear.

- Great. Talk later, Lily.
- Bye!

[Magic Man by Worlasi
playing on stereo]

[Alesha] sh*t.

Is anyone dealing with the
mess brewing on Facebook?

Hi, Alesha. Nice
to see you again.

Gus is handling it.

- Is he?
- Yes, I asked him to.

It's only a few people.

Wait. 3,000 people?

- Yeah.
- When did this happen?

- What?
- Hey, Alesha.

So, the products
thing, it's spiralling.

Yeah a journalist is talking
to people, looking for stories.

sh*t. Maureen...

- Who's Head of Products?
- [Maureen] Emmanuel.

- Ugh.
- Where the hell is Gus?

Well, I graduated with a first
class in Business Administration,

and since then, I've been right
hand man at Flair & Glory.

We have a turnover
of 350 million,

and we managed to expand in a
fiercely-competitive market.

This all sounds great,

but I've gotta ask,
why are you leaving?

Well, four years postgraduation,
I'm ready for a new challenge.

To be honest, mate, we'd expect more
varied experience under your belt.

Maybe an MBA?

Well, as deputy CEO, I was
across a range of decisions.

- Production, managerial, HR...
- Deputy CEO?

Basically, you
worked for your dad.

I was lead on several
product launches

and would have been point on
our international expansion.

Then why leave before
that expansion?

Now's not the time to be moving.

- The economy is volatile.
- [chuckles]

So you're saying
I'm unemployable?

- You're a great guy.
- [Gus] What does that mean?

Look, you've had a nice
set-up in the family business.

But can you cut it
in the real world?

I've gotta go. Some of us
only have an hour for lunch.

But chin up. [clears throat]

If a more appropriate opportunity
arises, I'll be in touch.

What's going on?

A journalist is talking to
people and looking for stories.

People always complain.

This isn't the consumer.

The product is nasty
and you know it.

Ms Richards, why are you here?

I asked her to be here.

There are thousands of
people in this group.

They have pictures of
their messed up hair.

Pictures equals eyeballs.
Eyeballs equals going viral.

We don't want that.
I need answers.

We have press calling. So
someone, anyone, give me answers.

- Someone.
- [man] Wait.

- Shut your mouth.
- [Nina] Mmm-mmm!

- I'm listening.
- [man] Some of the batches were off.

We rushed into a new partnership,
but with some of the conditioners,

the formula was flawed.

And you let them
through quality control?

We were within acceptable
margins of error.

[Alesha] Great.

Tell that to Aunty
with no hairline.

- Stephen didn't interfere.
- He should've.

We need to shut this down.

The victims need to feel
listened to and compensated.

- Compensated?
- [Maureen] Nina...

- What... What now?
- So sorry.

- I just had a call from OPSS.
- Who?

Office For Product
Safety And Standards.

They've received
multiple complaints.

- Oh, God.
- [Alesha] They'll investigate,

and that's how
people get shut down.

Mmm! This is early for you.

Yeah. I had a meeting
round here. Job hunting.

- Cool.
- Not really.

Turns out no-one thinks I'm a...

Everything's a mess.

Oh, I'm sorry.

[chuckles softly]

Ignore me.

You feel how you feel.

That's grief.

[exhales] Can I
get you anything?

Do you want to have
dinner sometime?

I like talking to you.

[sighs]

Management doesn't like us
mixing with VIPs, and...

And I'm not really
dating right now.

Let me know if you
need anything, okay?

[Claudia] I'll fix the credit cards.
Take one of mine for now, okay?

Why would Daddy do this?

Your father was a mystery.

I'm not sure he knew why
he did the things he did.

I haven't been
able to reach Gus,

but you've also had calls
from Pride, The Voice,

The Independent and Buzzfeed.

Okay. Let's get started.

I heard Patricia Bright's
gonna do an Insta live

- for anyone who's been affected.
- Who's Patricia Bright?

Influencer royalty.

She gets onto this and this
thing is gonna properly blow.

Damage limitation.

Ideas? Suggestions?
Products, where do we stand?

We estimate no more than 2,000,
maybe 3,000 bottles affected.

The product is now within
our normal standards.

Whatever that means.

Okay. We do a limited products
recall. We issue a statement.

Apologise unequivocally
and compensate.

- And you have to talk to the journalist.
- No.

The story he wants is you.

Respectfully, I say
we give him that.

- Okay. Maureen, set it up, and I'll do it.
- Mmm-hmm.

[knocking on door]

[whispering] What's all this?

This wasn't on my calendar.

- Gus...
- Alesha!

Are you drunk?

Everyone was in that room, trying to
avert a scandal, and where were you?

Where was my Deputy CEO?

I gave you one job, and
you couldn't even do that!

Don't try it.

You've been here, what, one minute,
and you think you know everything?

This is my company.

[laughs in disbelief]

"Your company"?
"Your company". Cool.

So, then tell me what the
f*ck is going on here.

- Oh...
- [Nina] Hmm?

What was going on here? Hmm?

What were you and Stephen doing?

- Don't bring him into this...
- He brought me into this.

You need to think
about your future, Gus.

- Are you trying to fire me?
- Is that what you want?

[Nina sucks teeth]

[phone buzzing]

Hello, Mum.

Yeah. Gimme a minute...
Gimme a minute.

[exhales heavily]

[inhales]

- [safe door rattles]
- Mum?

Mum!

Why are you shouting like that?

Did you know that was there?

Let's keep this between us.

[speaks other language]

- [in English] Slow down.
- Don't tell me to calm down.

A... A few days in London,
that's what you said.

Look, I took a leave
of absence. I...

I... I was gonna call you
tonight and explain...

You want to throw away
all your hard work?

I'm not throwing
anything away anything.

He left us the business.

Your business!

He's still trying to control us.

Mum, he's dead.

He's not controlling anything.

You didn't know him.

He stole Flair from you,
and now it's ours again.

It hasn't been ours
for a long time.

- But they'll destroy it.
- Good!

This is your legacy, Mum.
I'm... I'm doing this for you.

Eh-eh!

I didn't ask you to do
anything for me! Eh?

- I don't want it!
- I... I can't just run away, Mum.

That's exactly what you
should do. Come home...

You are overreacting
right now, and I...

You don't understand. He
poisons everything he touches.

We were lucky to get away. Eh!

[scoffs] You should leave before
they drag you into their wahala.

That woman has
always been trouble.

[sighs]

Is everything Okay?

Do you have any
solutions for me?

We have set a meeting for
you and the journalist.

I've already made contact with the
person running the Facebook page,

and they've agreed to meet.

- What about OPSS?
- I'll handle that.

- An old friend from uni works there.
- Good.

- Okay, let's move.
- One more thing.

As a family-run business,
our reputation is everything.

Today, our brand took a hit.

An unnecessary one because
our systems failed.

So, when we put out a statement
saying that we're listening

and we've learned, our
customers need to believe us.

- You're fired.
- What?

Are you kidding me?

This isn't over.

We're done here.

- I won't ignore the complaints.
- I'm not asking you to.

I just wanted you to know
we're under new management,

and all our protocols
are being reviewed, hmm?

Everything's under control.

That's good to know.

[sighs] I'm pretty
busy right now.

I've a couple of weeks
in Mallorca with my wife.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Nice! Nice, nice.

Yeah, we can hold off,

schedule an inspection,
say, in a few months?

Hmm. Perfect.
Perfect. Thanks, man.

- You owe me.
- Mmm.

[Gavin] The product
issue has been resolved,

but what about the
tensions within the family?

- The messy, unexpected succession...
- That sounds very dramatic.

With any change of leadership,
there's a period of adjustment.

I have an MBA and extensive
experience in business,

so succeeding my father
was a logical decision.

So this was always his plan.

- You want to be CEO?
- I wouldn't be here otherwise.

So, what next for Flair & Glory?

Well, I plan to build on what's
already been established.

We won't be coasting
on past glories.

Aggressive expansion,
innovative product development,

all of the above.

You have a very American style.

Is that a question?

Well, this is a
British business.

This is a Black
British business.

An immigrant business.

We are British, American,
Nigerian, Caribbean.

A true international
melting pot.

And I intend for the
business to reflect that.

[Mami No Like by
Donae'o playing]

- [Simon gasps]
- What? What?

- [Simon] The complaint page is gone!
- [sighs]

Thank God.

You really handled
business today.

- Cheers.
- [Simon] Nina!

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

- [both] Eyes. Eyes. Eyes. Eyes.
- [Simon] Cheers, boo.

- [Alesha] Mmm!
- [Nina] Mmm.

Emmanuel did not
see that coming.

Everyone there is
just so comfortable.

- I can see that.
- [Simon] Okay.

Who do we replace Emmanuel with?

Er, that young guy,
Patrick, is good.

Smart on the science,

- but people management, maybe not.
- [Nina] Mmm.

[Alesha] There's this
amazing woman at Klaxon's.

- If we could afford to poach her...
- Or...

- You could do it.
- Well, right.

- Nina!
- No, no, no! You can do it.

Why don't you already work
there? I've seen your socials.

You understand the business.

Yeah, if I wanted to
get the tea, sure,

but bad dyslexia,
zero qualifications...

Dad wouldn't have it.

- We didn't get on.
- [Nina] Oh.

- I'm sorry.
- It is what it is.

You know, daddy issues feel even
more sh*t when your dad's dead.

He was no father of the year.

But... you know that.

Yeah.

Uh-uh, I'm opening
another bottle.

- [Nina chuckles]
- Always bringin' me down.

[both laugh]

- [cork pops]
- [Simon] Oh! Tipsy.

You've never been good at that.

Girl, I'm good at drinking
champagne, not pouring it.

[Nina laughs]

What should we toast to?

- Bad dads.
- [all] Bad dads.

- [Nina and Alesha] Eyes.
- [Simon laughs]

I cannot believe
you snitched to Mum.

- Really?
- If we're only here for a couple months,

- what does it matter if she knows?
- [sighs]

It... I have a life
in New York, okay?

I have clients. I have a man.

We've got IVF plans.

Okay, I get it. Okay, I get it.

- You have commitments.
- So do you.

[mobile chimes]

Sir, can you add a stop?

Kingdom Street. Thanks.

You're going back to work?

- Can't it wait?
- No.

[Alesha] Thank you.

Mum.

What were you doing
in that boardroom?

Helping them out?

I was helping the business.

You know, the thing
we're trying to get back.

Did they tell you anything?

We talked about
work, about products.

Hmm.

She's really getting her
foot under the table.

Firing Emmanuel,
pushing Gus out?

Gus flopped and then
he came to work drunk.

Whose side are you on?

Ours.

But she's smart. She could
rescue this business,

make Flair matter again.

[scoffs]

They're using you,
you know that?

To get to me. To
get to your brother.

Or maybe they think
I've got good ideas.

Darling... Hmm?

I don't want anyone
messing with your head.

They're our enemy.

You can't trust them.

She offered me a job.

See?

Using you.

Don't let them.

Call your brother.

[sighs]

Hey, Nina.

[phone chimes]

Hey, Nina. It's me.

If you're serious, I'm in.

I want the job.

[keyboard clacking]

Hey, Maureen. You still here?

- It's late.
- Yeah. I'm almost done.

And, erm, I called IT again.

You should have everything
you need by the morning.

Thank you.

- Get home safe.
- Thanks.

[sighs]

[sighs heavily]

- [Stephen] Yes, you can.
- [Young Nina] I can't.

[Stephen] Nina... you
know these strokes.

- I did it!
- [Stephen chuckles]

Mum's going to k*ll
me. My hair's ruined.

Hair can be fixed, now. Nina...

You faced your fears,
that's what really matters.

Okay. Give me five.

Give me five again!
Give me five again!

[Stephen chuckling]

[man] So, you want a
full background check,

surveillance, plus
phone hacking?

- [Gus] Sure.
- [man] Yeah, well, that's extra.

Money's not an issue.

I wanna know everything.

What he's Googling,
what drugs he's doing,

if his wife is happy, how much
he has on his credit card.

This is a serving
police officer.

Is that a problem for you?

No.

[Oh Lord by Skripture playing]

Read between the lines and
you gonna get the message

Most will stop the car
if they see a wreckage...

[car engine revs]

You've got no reason being here unless
you've got something I can keep.

- Seriously, though, it's about the will.
- What?

Gideon's hiding something.

- Oh, Gideon's always hiding something.
- This is big.

Nina. We have a
problem with probate.

Stephen left you and your brother the
controlling interest in the company.

- Yes?
- Except he didn't.

These numbers are not adding up.

He didn't have all
those shares to give.

Some years ago...

Your father sold a percentage
of the company from his shares.

But we're still the
majority shareholders.

Yes.

But if that shareholder ever joins
forces with any of the others...

Gideon's trying to hide the fact
there's a secret shareholder.

Nina and Simon have lost
total control of the business.

We need to find this person.

This is how we get
you more shares.

You can come in.

Who is it? Who's
the shareholder?

Stephen went to great
lengths to conceal the sale.

- So far, I have nothing, but I am digging.
- Jesus.

We have to keep this to ourselves,
of course, until we know more.

Yeah, of course.

We have another problem.

God. Bigger than this?

I have spent all night going through
the workings of this business.

According to my calculations,

at least £20 million is
missing from this company.

- What?
- Yes.

Someone has been embezzling
on a massive scale.

We have a hole the size of the
Grand Canyon in our finances.

One wrong move and
Flair goes under.
