A great man.

He was loved by few others.

Although he leaves behind no family...

...he had an army of friends.

Be not sad for Dominic...

...no, for he has entered a better world...

...a reward for a life of selfless deeds...

...a pillar of the community.

Testing, testing.

That one.

That's it, fellas.

Smile for the camera.

Microphone's all set, sir.

Oh, good.

Take over the camera.

Okay.

Uh, sir, uh...

I've been doing some thinking, and...

Yeah?

Well, since nobody knew what Godfather Dominic looked like...

...how can we confirm that he died?

You see that funeral?

That's your confirmation.

Now, shut up, Jack.

I'm trying to gather some evidence here.

Where's my pad?

I don't know.

This is gonna be bad.

Jack!

I'm sorry, sir.

It's my allergies.

This is a sad day, Georgie.

Your boss... what can I say?

He was a credit to organized crime.

Jack, now get control of yourself.

You're gonna give us away.

Great.

Jack, you're suspended.

As family consigliere, tell me...

who takes over now as Godfather?

Ah...

Shh!

Don't worry, Sal.

We got somebody.

You got somebody?

We got somebody.

Okay.

This ain't over.

Come on. Let's go.

Hear that?

Yeah.

They probably got themselves the toughest...

...meanest criminal they could find.

Out went the confined corsets with their impractical material...

...and in swept a design revolution:

A modern dress with a cleaner, straighter silhouette...

...leading us today, 100 years later...

...to the widely popular belly shirt.

Miss, uh... Taylor.

Ow!

What?

Professor Kingfield, hi.

Yes, you with the wrinkled sweatshirt.

Please stand when answering a question.

Sorry.

I hope you all find your final grades as amusing.

Miss Taylor, I bought this suit in 1985

...off the rack at Bloomingdale's.

The label reads"Pierre Cardin."

Please explain and define the historical.

...and sociological significance of my purchase.

Okay.

Louder, please.

I can't hear you.

Pierre Cardin was the first couture house.

...to offer prêt-à-porter or luxury-wear clothing...

which is a staple for fashion buying today.

That's why you could buy that suit off the rack.

...at Bloomingdale's.

And the year Cardin started it?

1959.

Well done, Miss Taylor.

Thank you.

Perhaps if you put as much thought into your wardrobe.

...as you do into your homework.

Come ready tomorrow to discuss.

...the political ramifications of the culotte.

I'll make designers out of you yet.

You know, it's really not fair.

I spend every waking moment.

...designing clothes for other people.

when I'm not working on five different committees.

...or my part-time job.

And they expect me to wear heels after that?

You're right. That isn't fair.

I mean, who really has time for their own appearance?

She does.

Her own design every single day.

It's like she's a walking billboard.

I don't know how she does it.

I heard she doesn't.

They say she's been secretly getting outside help.

What?

It's the hottest rumor.

Três scandalous!

It's official. I truly hate her.

I do not believe that. I'm sorry.

Hey, Brooke.

Um, listen, don't worry about what Professor Kingfield.

...said in class today.

Maybe one day, plain and ugly will be in style.

Hey, back off, Candace.

Yeah, you're just jealous.

Here's a news flash, ladies.

The meek and the dorky don't inherit the arth.

The bold and the trendy do.

That's why my label CandaceWear.

will one day be America's top-selling brand...

...and you three will be designing.

...boys' underwear for a children's catalog.

Okay, now I hate her.

Yeah.

Welcome to Fashion University, where being the best means...

Brooke, the words are all smeared.

How am I supposed to read that?

Maybe if you learned your lines.

Let's go again. Action!

Welcome to Fashion University...

where being the best means looking your best.

Our motto is...

"Veni, suei, vici:

I came, I sewed, I conquered."

Where all the biggest names in fashion.

...first learned to make the world a prettier...

...more color-coordinated place to live.

Cut!

You're welcome.

We have only one philosophy here at Fashion University:

You are what you wear.

But don't worry.

After four years...

...you can count on it being fabulous.

I designed this myself, and you can too.

Cut, cut.

Sorry, sorry.

All right, let's wrap this up, people.

Yeah, I hate her.

Oh, man, I'm late for my wedding dress class.

Ugh, I'll see you guys later.

All right, bye.

Hey!

Hey, hey!

Do I throw trash in your house?

Ugh. Freshman, I swear...

Hi, can I help you?

Get in the car.

Xcuse me, sir.

I took self-defense classes in high school.

I know three ways to disarm an attacker.

None of which apply right now.

Where are you taking me?

You will not be harmed.

Who are you?

I'm gonna be very late for class.

Get in the car, please.

This is really gonna ruin my perfect attendance.

Seriously, where are you taking me?

Relax, Miss Taylor. Buckle up.

It'll all be explained. I promise.

You're part of the family now, just like cousin Frankie.

Family.

Family?

You live here?

It was your grandfather Dominic's.

Grandfather? Wait, wait.

I don't have a grandfather.

I had a grandfather.

This is me.

I don't understand.

How did he die?

You might say heartache over the loss of his family.

You mean my parents?

He wasn't the same after the car accident.

Ate him up inside.

Why didn't he try and contact me?

It was complicated. It's complicated?

Sounds pretty simple to me. He didn't care.

That isn't true.

He abandoned me at foster care.

while livin' it up in this mansion.

What else is there to know?

He checked up on you.

He sent you toys and cards...

I was five.

I was shuffled from one stranger to another.

I didn't want cards or candy.

I wanted a family. I wanted a real family.

Wait, listen to me... Why should I listen to you?

You're probably in on this whole thing too.

This whole time, I think I'm alone in the world...

...and then I find out I had a grandfather...

...someone that I could have gone to when I needed help.

And now he's gone.

Brooke...

I will never forgive him for that.

Never.

Oh, what's that? More bad news?

His will. Keep it.

I don't care about anything of his.

It was his last request...

...his dream that you take over the family business.

Me run a business?

Are you serious?

Two seconds ago, I find out I have a grandfather...

...and now I'm supposed to take over his job?

What was he, anyways, a rich stockbroker?

Lawyer?

Ooh!

It's not a toy.

Come on. Into the kitchen.

Mob boss?

I was kidding.

It's not what you think.

I can't be a mob boss.

I'm an honest person.

I've never cheated on anything in my entire life.

We've got plenty of legal businesses too.

Oh, so that makes it okay?

Look, look, I am a fashion student.

I design pretty clothes that don't include gun holsters.

Your grandfather wanted to go straight...

...but he ran out of time.

That's why we found you.

He wants you to finish what he started.

Forget it.

You're the only one left. We need you.

I have to get back to school. I have a test to study for.

Brooke.

Your grandfather loved you.

That kind of love I can live without.

Why can't my family just be normal.

...like the Osbournes?

I had a nightmare like this once.

You!

What are you doing here?

I'm not used to people saying no.

In fact, you might be the first.

Well, get used to it.

'cause I'm gonna say it again right now.

No, no, no, N-O.

No, no, no, no, no.

Hey, Brooke, who, uh... who's your little friend here?

Fashion cop come to arrest you for this tired design?

He's my...

Sewing counselor.

Makin' sure she doesn't drop a stitch.

He is very thorough.

You got nothin' to do?

Well, I'll leave you two to work out your issues.

Obviously, there's plenty.

You shouldn't let her talk to you like that.

Oh, whatever.

You want me to take care of her?

Oh, no, no, no, no. It's fine.

You should... you should get out of here.

You're the boss.

I'm not the boss.

Stop saying that.

Go. Shoo. Bye.

If you ask me, it'd look better as a strapless.

It does look better as a strapless.

I hate him.

You'd think a classy place like this.

would have a dress code.

...or a limit on the number of nose rings you can wear.

You don't give up, do you?

Now you're catchin' up.

You hungry?

Okay, why did you come.

...all the way to Staten Island for lunch?

I've been comin' here for over 40 years.

Best gnocchi around.

Look, George, you don't want me, okay?

I know nothing about what you do.

That doesn't matter.

Family don't turn their back on each other.

Tell that to my grandfather.

You can hate him, but the fact is...

...he was protecting you.

He was keeping you away from danger.

Great. And what about now?

We're so close to being legit.

We need someone to take us the rest of the way.

Someone like me?

Honest.

Smart.

Better.

Stop it. Stop.

I'm very susceptible to compliments right now.

Look, don't throw away.

...everything that your grandfather worked for.

You can turn his legacy into something good...

...something you can be proud of.

My school means everything to me.

I won't leave. I can't leave.

You don't have to.

And nobody finds out, nobody.

Believe me, I ain't no squealer.

Oh, I hope you're happy...

'cause you've given me quite the headache.

Is that a yes?

Yes, it's a yes. Shh!

I'm done talking about this.

You're the boss.

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm the boss.

I can't even run my own life...

...and now I'm supposed to run your family's.

It's just perfect.

Jack!

Sir.

You wanted to see me, sir?

I've decided to take you off suspension, Jack.

Okay!

Wow.

Thank you, sir.

I've got new allergy medication...

...so there won't be any more problems with the...

...the nose and the sneezing and the...

...oh, I'm fine, I promise you.

We just received a tip on the Sarto family.

Looks like they found themselves a new don.

Oh, uh, wow.

Okay, uh, great.

L... I don't understand, sir.

A fashion student?

I want you to go inside her school...

...find out what this... this Brooke Taylor is up to...

...and then bring her down.

You mean enroll in dressmaking classes, sir?

Sure, a young man like yourself.

...must know a lot about fashion.

Besides, a big bust like this.

...could really boost your career, Jack.

Absolutely, sir...

...but isn't there a better way?

You know, phone taps or internet surveillance...

...something that doesn't involve sewing?

If you can't do it, I'll get Carter.

He's a real sharp dresser...

...and he's been bugging me awhile for a big case like this.

Sir, I can handle this, okay?

I will be the...

...most fashionable fashion student on campus, sir.

Would you mind clipping me?

Don't screw up, Jack.

Hey, workin' on somethin' new?

Uh, no, it's nothing.

So you ready to go?

I don't want to be late for the fashion quiz.

They might deduct a point from me or something.

Then I'd have no chance to win.

You know, maybe I should stay home.

We're a bit nervous.

Hey, you studied very hard for this.

It's the fashion finals. You're going.

You'll be fine.

Just don't look into the audience.

with all those eyes just watching and judging you.

Whew!

Talk about scary.

Why'd you have to say a thing like that?

What? I'm just trying to help you.

You guys.

Now, next question:

Love beads.

That is correct!

Now, next question.

What was unfavorably worn by little old ladies.

...in Florida in the summer of 1982?

Testing.

Testing.

This is Agent Jack Lawton.

...on case number 479358:

The takedown of mob boss Brooke Taylor.

Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it!

Hoy!

Uhh!

Next question.

What item...

Oh, my God, he's so gorgeous.

Too bad he doesn't know my name.

So go introduce yourself.

Ask him out.

Me ask him out?

No way.

Why not?

Because, Page, girls don't ask guys out.

It's weird and desperate.

What if he says no? What if he says yes?

B, if you want something bad enough, you go get it.

I've spotted the subject with a female accomplice.

If you can't, you can't.

Okay, fine. I'll do it.

Something is definitely going down.

They are on the move, and, sir, I am on the...

Here we go.

Hey, Marcus.

You know, you're the one who should be up there.

I mean, you're so brilliant and smart and everything.

Come on. He's not worth it.

Our next category...

Hey, Dee, there's always next year.

Can I ask you guys something about family?

Of course, anything.

What do you do when they're not exactly like you?

I know a lot about that one.

And how do you deal with it?

Any way you can, 'cause, girl, you stuck with 'em.

That's what I thought.

But still, no matter how freaky.

...or weird they are...

...it's nice to have them around, like Dee.

So what's up, B?

Why you askin' about family?

It's nothing.

Never mind.

Movies.

Believe me, nothin' like that.

Oh.

Well, except maybe Sal Hugo.

Who's Sal Hugo?

Old-school mob boss.

He's gonna want your territory.

At some point, you got to meet him.

Me?

You gotta sell him on our new direction...

...gain some respect...

...or he'll walk all over us and ruin our plans.

But how? I'm not convincing.

Nobody listens to anything that I say.

That's okay.

I'll teach you.

Ready? Ready.

You see?

You gotta own the room...

...make everyone notice you.

Oh, I don't want anyone to notice me.

Come on. Try it.

Ready? Ready.

One more time.

You're still not owning.

You're returning a late library book.

Oh, that reminds me.

Where you going?

Come back!

We're not done yet.

Watch me.

I can't tell what you're thinking.

Xactly.

In meetings, you don't reveal anything.

You let them reveal. Then you'll have the advantage.

Try again.

You look like you just got a C on a test.

Hey!

I'm sorry. You're right.

That would never happen.

George, I can't do this.

I'm an emotional person.

Hello, college girl.

We'll try again later.

Fine.

So what about this Sal guy?

I sent a man over to buy us some time...

...see what kind of a mood he's in.

I had plans!

I waited a long time for this.

I am not gonna let this new boss, Brooke... Brooke?

What kind of a name is Brooke?

Mr. Hugo, you want me to run this Sarto guy through again?

Huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Run him through again.

This time, put him through the rinse cycle, will you?

He's makin' a mess out of my floors here.

These people, you know...

...they gotta learn a little respect.

I made a joke!

That's a good one, boss.

Come on.

Hey, you got any quarters?

Do you have me now, sir?

Yes... No, I plan on making contact today, sir.

Yes. No, nothing yet.

I will fill you in as soon as I know, sir.

Yes.

Believe me, I am trying my hardest, sir.

Oh, yes.

Hi.

They're, uh... they're tricky little guys.

They're impossible to sew with.

That's because it's a seam ripper.

Right, yeah.

Just... Just kidding.

Do I know you?

You look really familiar.

Me?

No, I don't think so.

Last semester, floral print design?

Scarves and handbags?

Oh, ladies' undergarments.

Actually, I just transferred here from...

Shh. Designer State.

Fashion U of the West Coast.

That's a great school.

Yeah, my name's Jack.

I'm Brooke.

Okay, people!

Now it is your turn!

So find a partner and practice marking them.

...for a fitting.

Let's go!

A fitting? Yeah.

Uh, it's been a while since I've marked anything...

...so maybe you could, you know, help me.

Be my partner, my little honeysuckle.

...of the garden of love.

Okay, comin' along.

Uh-huh.

Watch it with the pins when you get to the inseam.

Mm-hmm. Keep at the chalk.

With the chalk, come on.

Lovely, fine.

Mm. All right, then.

It's funny, really.

Actually, this whole time...

I never even thought you knew my name.

I don't.

Oh, right.

Of course.

It's Brooke.

It's Brooke, in case you're wondering.

And you're Marcus, which, you already know that.

I'm gonna just keep measuring, and I'll just shut up.

Don't mind me.

Okay, now I have to measure your inseam.

32. I say it's 32.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah, sure. Anything.

I mean, how does my butt look in these?

I feel so naked without a mirror in here.

Oh.

Fine, fine.

Only fine?

No, really good.

You really fill these pants out nicely.

I mean, they're... the lines are perfect.

Really good.

Yeah, well, I do a lot of squats.

Ah, yeah.

Check this out.

Ooh!

I mean, that is tight, huh?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's really tight.

Yeah, my girlfriend thinks so too.

Right.

Yes.

See me after class.

Okay.

They're... They're... they're caprey...

...or capri shorts.

Oh!

Come on, Jack.

You can hit a fleeing suspect from 50 yards away.

I think you can do this.

Come on.

Yeah!

Okay, you thought I couldn't thread you...

...but I threaded you.

How does it feel to be threaded?

Aah!

Is this what you want?

Wait, let me get this right.

You had your hand on his butt?

You're missing the important part of the story.

What, that it was nice?

No, that he has a girlfriend.

Like I have any chance, anyway.

Don't say that.

Of course you do.

Well, did you at least give it a squeeze?

Oh.

Dare to dream, girls.

If the board of trustees thinks I'm gonna live.

with outdated furniture in the dean's mansion...

...they got another thing coming.

The mansion reflects on the school...

...and I refuse that reflection.

...to be anything short of recherchê.

No, that means refined, you idiot.

Ladies.

Dean Faber, how's it going?

If you girls only knew what I did around here.

Oh, we do!

And we appreciate everything.

You missed a spot.

Yes, hello. Is that...

Oh, it's a table, not a trough.

So this is everyone, huh?

Kind of scruffy, don't you think?

Scruffy?

Yeah, with some definite hygiene issues.

Not very polite, either.

Believe me...

...that'll come in handy in their line of work.

Come on, say something.

What? Me? No, no, no.

No, I didn't prepare anything to say, no.

These guys don't care.

Half of them are deaf from all the gunfire.

No, George, you don't understand.

I am very bad at public speaking.

Introduce yourself.

Let 'em know you mean business.

Okay.

Hello... Everyone.

Guys?

Listen up.

Hello, everyone.

How are you?

I intend to learn all of your names...

'cause, you know, that's what a good leader does.

She gets to know and gets along with everyone.

I heard a famous designer say that once, yeah.

So I have no experience.

...in what you guys do...

whatever it is that you do...

...but I intend to work very hard.

People at my school can vouch for that.

Let me tell you... I mean, the people that know me.

Not a lot of people know me.

I'm kind of, you know...

I'm not very popular at my school.

They have these, you know, these cliques.

You guys... you know, cliques.

They just get together, and I'm telling you...

I just wish we could just.

...put all of that aside and come together.

...so we can make beautiful, yet affordable clothes as one.

So are there, like, any questions?

They hate me!

They hate everyone.

Well, this time, it was pointed at me...

...and it's more than a little scary, okay?

They need to work on that. It's not healthy.

Boss, these guys may be rough around the edges...

Dges? All they have are edges.

But they know how to follow orders.

So you're saying they have to listen to everything that I say?

Mm-hmm.

Verything that I say?

Are you sure about this?

Oh, yeah.

You don't like this one?

Talk about extreme makeover.

Whoa!

Hey! Hey!

Too much?

Nah, they'll clean up fine.

Good.

Hey, watch out for the heat!

Okay, now, try to avoid it if you can...

...but if there is an accident...

...gunpowder can be removed with a 15-minute soak.

...in lukewarm water with a teaspoon of ammonia.

Okay?

Yeah... No!

Oh, this is way too many carbs for the new look.

Here.

Try a Slim-Fast bar, okay?

It's way better for you.

Now, let's talk general fabric here.

I could totally get used to this.

It's like Simon Says, but with grown-ups.

By the way, you look very handsome.

I forgot how this feels.

It's me.

You're having fun?

I love being the boss.

Yeow!

Oh, wow.

You've been busy. Good.

Let's keep it that way.

Yes, Miss Candace.

Cheer up.

I can't get you into Fashion U unless I have more of these.

And remember, a happy designer is a productive designer.

And next time, no names.

I'll make sure you get your credit.

Trust me.

You all look fashion-tabulous.

Hmm.

Forget about it.

Forget about it.

Forget about it.

Like, totally forget about it.

Brooke.

What's going on?

You talkin' to me?

So yeah, I'm a mob boss.

Look, you guys, I wanted to tell you sooner.

I was just afraid of how you would react.

You were right.

Whoa, our shy little girl has become Vito Corleone?

Shh.

Nobody can know.

Imagine the reaction.

Trust me; that's the least of your worries.

Look, it's very safe.

George is protecting me, okay?

It's just a part-time thing.

It's like an after-school job.

Couldn't you just work at the mall like everyone else?

Look, you guys, my grandfather spent years.

...trying to make this family legitimate.

I just want to be the one to finish the job.

I need my best friends behind me on this, please.

I can't do this alone.

I'm sorry, B.

I can't.

I just can't.

Hey, don't look at me.

I gave up everything I have to come here.

I can't risk that.

Brooke?

Running the mob?

Yes, it explains everything.

Such as her high grades or her lack of a social life.

...or even the way she dresses?

Yes, that and... And more.

I haven't got time for this nonsense, Candace.

I'm in the middle of a fund-raising campaign.

Have you ever tried to get money out of alumni?

Marge? Yes?

Has Tommy Hilfiger called back?

No, sir, he hasn't.

You see? This is what I'm up against.

Shouldn't you at least look into it?

I mean, the school's reputation is at risk.

Dean Faber?

Yes?

Is it Vera Wang?

Your decorator's on line three.

He's asking why you've ordered three of the same armoire.

Unless you have proof...

I don't want to hear another word.

Fine.

I'll get you proof.

Remember, when you meet Sal...

...you pause, quick nod of the head...

...then you reach out to shake.

Not too soft.

Okay, not too hard, either.

That's fine.

And finally, you lean in to Sal for the kiss.

W! Why do I have to kiss him?

A small peck on each cheek.

It's a sign of respect.

I'll just send him a fruit basket.

Please, Brooke, you gotta convince Sal.

...that you're in command or we can't go legit.

Our family depends on...

This is gonna make a great pair of socks.

Freak.

How was that? Too much?

No. It was different.

Oh, wait, let me get that.

We can't have a tough guy like you George.

with lipstick on your face, right?

So we'll continue with the lessons later then?

Okay.

I got that as a kid.

It's actually what first got me interested in fashion.

See?

We used to have this guy come to the foster home.

His name was Donny.

He was an ex-orphan or something.

Anyway, he gave all the kids presents...

...but he called me his special angel.

And then one year, he gave me this for my birthday.

That's nice.

I know. It still works too.

Work? I got to go to work.

Will you give me a ride?

Hey.

It's... it's you.

Look out, man!

That's tulle from Paris.

Very floaty and feminine.

Oh, yeah.

I was just... I was just looking.

Can I help you with something?

Brooke Taylor works here, doesn't she?

Well, why don't you ask her yourself?

What?

Jack, hey.

Hey.

Uh, George, thank you for the ride.

I'll talk to you later.

You kids have fun.

He's just a friend.

So were you asking about me?

No.

L... I mean...

I'd heard that you worked here, and so I, uh...

You wanted a deal on material.

Right, yeah. Yeah, that's it.

Anything for a classmate. Come with me.

Oh, okay.

Hello?

Yeah, could I speak to a reporter, please?

An investigative reporter...

...preferably one with a Pulitzer.

I'll hold.

We've got some great fabric back here.

Let me show you one I think you're really gonna like.

It's got amazing texture and balance, don't you think?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

Actually, it's my own creation.

Really?

Yeah, when it's slow around here...

I like to play around with the fabric.

See, with this one, I just steamed it.

...and then sewed ruffles across the grain.

See?

Wow.

You... You really know a lot about this stuff, huh?

Yeah, I should.

It's only my life.

Yeah.

Okay. So what can I get for you?

Right.

I don't know.

How about... how about this one?

It's... it's pretty.

Yeah, okay.

So I really like this new look of yours.

Oh, thanks.

It's more you, except that tie.

What? Yeah, here.

That was a gift.

A little kitschy-retro, don't you think?

Uh, yeah.

That's what I was going for.

I think a bit less dorky is better.

Oh. Here, let me.

Oh. There.

Okay, I'll see you in class. Bye.

Okay.

This is gonna make a great suit.

Yeah.

You know, Dee, we should have helped Brooke out.

What kind of friends are we?

I miss her.

You know, I was just about to say that.

You always do that. What?

Take what I have to say and make it about yourself.

Mm-hmm. Sounds like someone's jealous.

Ow, ah, ah!

Jack?

Hey, Brooke.

These cups, you know? There ought to be a law.

Two times in two days.

I swear you were following me.

Following you?

Why... why would I be following you?

Um, no reason, I guess.

But now that I've found you, maybe I can...

I can walk you to class?

Okay.

So you were a problem child, huh?

Oh, yeah, the worst.

Like getting arrested and stuff like that?

No! Nothing that bad.

No, I... I just had this notion.

...that my real family would come looking for me.

So I never let myself get too close to anyone.

You know, I acted like a real brat...

...but my family never showed.

Well, until...

Until?

Until I came here.

This place, it's like my home.

Ah.

You've become emotionally involved with this Brooke.

No, sir, believe me, there's been a mistake.

She's not what we think she is.

Is that right? Absolutely, sir.

She's not a mob boss. There's no way.

Then how do you explain that?

What do you got to say for yourself, Jack?

What... Do you... do you have a quarter?

We should probably get one.

What's this?

Did Donatella Versace show up again?

There she is. There she is.

Donna! Donna!

Are you selling your movie rights?

Um, what... what's going on?

Is this you?

Oh, my... That is a horrible picture!

Hey!

Hey, get away from her!

I think we lost them.

You guys totally saved me back there.

Friends stick together no matter what.

And so do family...

'cause that's what the three of us are.

Oh, we are.

Oh, God, this can't be happening.

I'm gonna be the most hated person on campus.

Well, at least they'll be too scared of you.

...to do anything about it.

Oh, no, wait. What?

This means everyone's gonna know who I am.

Oh, you're right. That's worse.

I've gone from a nobody to a somebody.

...in a single morning.

I can't breathe!

Girl, snap out of it!

Oh! Ow.

What?

I saw Cher do it in a movie.

That's for hysteria, not an anxiety attack.

Ooh, yo, sorry, B.

I have to quit.

I have to tell George to find another boss fast.

Can you do that?

I mean, is it that easy?

I'm just gonna lay low for a while.

I'm gonna stay away from crowds, blend in.

So much for blending in.

Sit down, everybody, please.

Hi, Jack.

Verybody, sit down now.

Come on, children.

Thank you, children. Thank you. Thank you.

I'd like to open by saying.

...that I have been tough on you all semester...

...but that's only because I care as much about your minds.

...as I do about your future.

And, Miss Taylor, I'd especially like to apologize to you.

...for anything that I might have said about your wardrobe.

It has been most unfair and cruel of me...

...and I promise you it will never happen again.

So, uh...

why don't we just forget today's pop quiz, eh?

Maybe this boss thing isn't so bad.

You got to tell her the truth.

I can't.

She hates me.

...for what I did by abandoning her like that.

She'll forgive you.

when she finds out you're her grandfather.

No, we stick to the plan.

It's working.

Once she learns the ropes, takes us legit...

I disappear forever and remain dead and buried.

Trust me. It's better that way.

Okay, I don't think Sal's gonna buy it.

Hey, boss, I can have one of the boys do that.

No, no, no, no.

No, it helps me relax.

When I was a kid working here, I could do 40 shirts an hour.

Perfect creases, not a wrinkle in sight.

Is that funny?

Did I say something funny?

So what do we do about this Brooke?

You set up the meeting.

I want to know who I'm dealing with before I make my move.

Hey, put your hand in here.

Go ahead. Put your hand in.

Put it in. Put it in.

Funny? Is that funny?

That's funny, isn't it?

Get out of here.

Hey, George. What's up?

It's time.

Can you come back later?

It's time.

You really think I'm ready for this?

Listen, Brooke, don't forget what I've taught you:

Control the room, shake Sal's hand firmly...

...and then the two kisses of respect.

Now, remember...

Sal does this thing where he's staring at you.

where he's looking for weakness.

Just stay calm and show him that you can handle yourself.

But weakness is my strongest quality.

Come on, boss.

You're one of the toughest people I know.

Tough? Tough?

Oh, you are so off base on this one.

I'm not even close to being...

...you really think I'm tough?

You order me around pretty good.

Well, you make it really easy and fun.

I grew up without a family too...

...so I know.

You made yourself into this amazing person.

with nobody handing you anything.

That's tough.

Uh-huh.

I hope I don't lose any points for this one.

Nah, but I might.

You're not coming in?

I'll be out here waiting.

Just be yourself.

You'll do fine.

Here.

Make sure it don't drip on the rug.

Right, boss.

What is this?

It's, um...

...it's very nice to meet you.

Sit down!

You know, they mentioned that you was a chick...

...but nobody said nothin' about you bein' a skirt.

Oh, I'm neither, actually, Mr. Hugo, sir.

Come again?

I'm a girl.

I object to being labeled as a chick or a skirt.

It's, like, totally sexist.

You object?

You got moxie. I'll give you that.

But you don't look like you could run a sewing circle...

...much less a family.

Oh, no, I assure you I can.

I can fax you my rêsumê.

I have excellent references.

Top of my school, grades, everything.

Yeah.

Or not.

Listen.

Now that Dominic is gone, God rest his soul...

I figure everything that's yours is now mine.

Oh, well, I'm sure we can work out an agreement.

...that is beneficial to both of us.

Oh, I'm sure that we can.

The agreement is that you give all your businesses to me...

...and I'll let you continue to live.

...so that you could do your fashion school thing, you know.

I assume from that weird expression and the silence.

...that that is a yes, which is good.

Now, get out of here. I'm busy.

Is... is that an Italian wool suit?

Custom made, the best.

May I?

Hmm. What I thought.

What? It's a mid-weight.

It's too heavy for you.

Makes you sweat a lot, right?

You could say that.

Um, a lighter wool, say a 110...

would be softer and breathe better.

Probably make you sleep easier at night.

You know, I get two hours now, I'm lucky.

Clothes not only make the man, they shape the man.

Now, have you ever given any thought to your color palette?

I have some swatches in my purse.

Well, you know, I always thought of myself as an autumn.

Mm, okay, well...

I have this lovely brown one...

...and it goes with your... your manliness...

...and still a touch of your feminine side.

My what?

I did it. I did it.

I think I turned him around.

I knew you would.

It was easier than I thought.

I mean, it was scary, but it was still easy.

You're the boss.

That's right. Let's go.

Round up the guys.

This is gonna be easier than I thought.

You guys remember that girl that hates me for no reason?

The one that spilled butterscotch pudding.

...on you at dinner?

Mm-hmm.

Well, today she held the door open for me.

I'm serious.

I was ten feet away, and she waited.

And it wasn't like there was anyone else around either.

Just me: Liza!

Did you guys ever think we would become this popular?

Hey, boss girl.

See you brought a couple of your goons to the party.

You're only, like, the fifth Stella McCartney here tonight.

And I don't wanna guess who you're supposed to be.

What about you, Candace?

What great designer did you choose to wear tonight?

Me, of course.

Who else?

Come on, ladies.

Heat's all over me on this one, Jack...

...so I'm here to make sure you do your job.

Well, I am trying to, sir...

...but I just think I need a little bit more...

No, no, no. You're not digging hard enough.

Now, I want you to stay on her and stay on her close.

...until we can get some evidence that we can use.

Now, look at this beautiful baby.

What's that?

New surveillance bug.

Got a camera and microphone built right in.

That's a... An earring, sir?

It's not... not really my style.

Would you rather wear these camera glasses?

I'll take the earring.

Smart choice.

Sir, this is... this is not a clip-on.

I'd have to get my ears pierced to wear this, so...

Time to take one for the bureau, son.

No.

Sir, you can't. What are you doing?

Sir, n... Aah!

Ow!

Ah.

Ah!

You look nice, Brooke.

Hey, look at you.

You've got an earring.

Yeah, yeah.

It still hurts.

Just when I think I know you.

Yeah, well, I guess you can't really know anyone.

We all have our secrets.

Whoa, lighten up, Jack. It's a party.

I'm sorry. I'm having a really bad day.

Do you want to talk about it?

Yeah. Yeah, that'd be good.

Do you mind if we go somewhere else?

The sound is really loud in here.

Yes, that's my boy!

Way to bring it around, Jack.

Okay.

Hey, Brooke.

Want to dance?

You want me to dance with you?

Come on.

I paid the DJ to play a slow song next.

Don't let that pretty boy take the girl!

So you, uh, notice anything?

Uh, just that my heart is beating very fast.

Um, I'm wearing the pants you made in class.

Oh.

So does my butt still look good?

You might want to ask your girlfriend that.

Girlfriend? Pffff.

We broke up days ago.

No, I'm a... Free man.

What happened? Why'd you leave?

Well, she's with the male model.

Nothing was gonna happen tonight, anyway.

Oh, Jack, can't you do anything right?

Lt... it's pitiful the way you let that guy.

...take your girl like that.

Oh, man.

Ah.

You wimp.

So look, I was wondering...

would you like to go on a date with me?

Oh, I love dates!

I love raisins.

I love all that stuff.

They get the worst rap, but, mmm, they're delicious.

No, go on a date.

What?

I said go on a date with me!

Okay, I'll go on a date with you.

I don't like this guy.

George...

I've tried to tell her.

He's into you for the wrong reasons.

I can tell.

Stop trying to act like my parent.

Sweetie, why don't you wear the silk blouse you designed?

No, I can't.

I messed the stitching up on it.

Besides, it's way too amateur.

What are you talking about?

It's beautiful.

She always does this.

George, look at these.

Do these look amateur to you?

They're exquisite.

See?

No offense, George...

...but you know nothing about fashion.

Hello?

Okay.

He's here.

Gosh, I'm so nervous.

Tell me I look okay.

You look beautiful.

You look great.

Okay, let's go.

Okay, let him pay for dinner, and laugh at all his jokes.

Okay. Specially the dumb ones.

All right, got it.

Good night, George.

Bye.

Bye.

Yeah! Yes.

I still don't like this guy.

Are you sure you wanted to come here?

Oh, yeah. I've read about this place.

Yes? May I help you?

Table for two.

Sarto.

Welcome.

Welcome!

Hi.

It is my family's deepest honor.

...having you here tonight.

Please, come with me.

I have the most perfect table for you.

One moment while we clear the table for you, huh?

Let me offer you something while you're waiting.

Thank you.

Whoa!

Would you... would you like some water, Don...

Miss Don... Miss Donna?

Don's daughter?

It's all set.

This way, please.

The head chef himself will be out shortly.

...to explain the specials.

...and to make some lovely recommendations.

Please, order anything you like, anything at all.

It's on the house.

Your money is no good here.

Yours we'll take.

Njoy.

Must be ladies' night.

Maybe it's because you're a lady and it's night.

Yeah, there's just so many talented people on campus.

Sometimes when I think about it...

...it's a little intimidating, you know?

Yeah.

But I'm not gonna let that stop me.

No way.

Is that Joey Blow Pops over there?

Oh, I don't really know.

He likes to chew gum when he's bumpin' people off.

Always goes with peppermint.

So, Marcus, what about you?

Is modeling something you want to do long-term...

...or is there...

No, I don't know.

Maybe, I guess.

So look, when people don't pay you back...

...do you really break their legs?

Huh, send them down the river, canary in the mouth...

...horse's head in the bed?

Do you believe this guy?

He's using her.

A beautiful girl like that...

...and all he cares about is gangsters?

Jack, let's stay professional.

Well, Marcus, I don't know what you've heard...

...but we don't do that.

Oh, come on. I'm not scared.

I want to know all the gory details, really.

Is this why you asked me out on a date?

Well, yeah.

I mean, dating a Godfather...

...how cool is that?

Verybody's talkin'.

Ugh!

This guy is too much.

You're not even that good-looking, pal!

Oh, that's real professional.

That's Kneecaps Swanney.

Oh, and he's coming this way.

Yo, Kneecaps, can I get a picture?

I'm just a big fan, man.

I know all your hits.

Say,"bullets." Lt'd be hilarious.

Bullets.

Did you take it?

I didn't see a flash.

You know what?

Next time you want to spend an evening with a mobster...

...rent a movie.

Um, signorina, is there something wrong?

Yes, tell my date never to talk to me again.

My pleasure.

All right, let's go.

Come with us. What?

Can I get my camera?

Girl, what did you think you guys did...

...steal Girl Scout cookies?

I don't know. I tried not to.

Well, maybe you should.

The Mafia does a lot of bad things.

Not us.

Oh, you're the friendly and nice mobsters.

You know, you guys really aren't helping.

Look, all we're trying to say is...

...how much do you really know about your grandfather.

...and the businesses he ran?

He was dragged into it by his father...

...never given a choice.

Believe me, your grandfather was no killer.

He was a good man doing his best to survive.

...and provide for his family.

And my parents, were they involved?

No, he kept them out.

...like he kept you out 'cause he loved you.

He wanted you to have a chance at a normal life...

...and you can still have that.

How?

Right there in the books.

Yeah, but waste management, concrete, scrap metal.

What do I know about that stuff?

Dress factory?

What's that?

I'll show you.

We run a sweatshop?

These are skilled workers.

...making a decent wage with insurance.

Hey, what are these?

Those are mine.

I did them on my break.

They're beautiful.

You have a very distinctive style.

Thank you.

Oh, the mother lode!

Check it out.

Oh, my gosh.

We got Prada and Fendi and Gucci.

Oh, my!

Don't tell her, but they're fake.

I think I got designer brain freeze.

Okay, I'm fine.

You're trying to tell me we sell knockoffs?

'Cause that's all we know how to do.

Why didn't you tell me about this before?

Look at this, girl!

Girl, look at this.

This is beautiful.

Oh, my gosh!

Oh, my goodness!

This was your grandfather's office.

He made clothes?

First job he ever had...

...helping the wiseguys in the neighborhood look sharp.

I have fashion in my blood.

You have designer genes.

I knew it.

Sarto means"tailor" in Italian.

That's how you got your last name.

Here you are, sir.

Oh, great. Thanks, Rosa.

What's that? Present.

Oh, sorry. I don't wear fake clothes.

It's not fake.

It's a genuine Brooke Taylor.

My dress!

You asked how you can help us become legit?

That's how.

Oh, my God!

I'm so good!

I knew it all along.

No, really.

I'm, like, really good.

Right.

You see that?

What?

Veryone's looking at you.

Pretty cool, isn't it?

It's the office again.

Should I be worried?

Yeah, I got the same call.

Dean Faber must be needing money all of a sudden.

I heard him say he was raising tuition.

Oh, well. I'll see you guys later.

All: Bye!

Jack?

Jack!

Hi!

Oh, hey, Brooke.

Wow, look at you.

I know.

It's a little dressy for class but...

No, you look incredible.

You look like you just stepped out of a French issue.

...of Vogue magazine.

That is the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me.

Jack!

Get out of here!

Are you a janitor here?

Jack!

I think that is so great, working your way through school.

Yeah, right, work.

Jack!

I'll be with you in a second!

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Yeah, okay.

Okay.

So tomorrow in the quad, there's this sewing rally thing.

Yes, last team rally before the sew-off.

I never miss it.

Right, and I was thinking, you know...

...since you're going, which you are...

...and if I'm going, which I am...

...then maybe we could, uh, you know...

You're gonna make me finish this, aren't you?

Go together.

You mean like a date?

Well, it sounds kind of corny when you say it like that.

Oh, sorry.

It'd be better if you just sort of said...

"Yeah, I'd love to go."

I mean, if that's how you're feeling.

Then, yeah, I'd love to.

Great.

So it's a date.

I can't wait.

I'll see you tomorrow.

So how did it go?

Sir, for the record, I do not think this is right.

What are you talking about?

It's working. She said yes.

Yes, I know, but...

Do I have to remind you about your job, Jack?

And that your career is on the line with this case?

No, but, sir...

She is the linchpin we need to bring down.

...all organized crime in this city.

You want that, don't ya?

Of course.

Well, then keep putting on that charm, boy...

'cause all that romantic sweet talk's gonna help us.

...bag that fashion crime queen.

I'm sorry.

This ain't right.

She doesn't need me anymore, Frank.

That ain't true.

I want you to keep an eye on her.

Make sure she gets anything she needs.

Okay? Anything.

George!

You're never gonna believe what happened today.

What's this? You going on vacation?

Brooke, I wanted to talk to you about it.

I got a date tomorrow.

I'm sorry, I couldn't wait. It's with Jack.

That's great. I'm happy for you.

I know; I wanted to go get coffee and talk about it.

I'm so excited.

I don't know if I'm gonna sleep tonight.

But if you're going somewhere...

...you needed to tell me something?

I, uh...

I was going to throw away these suitcases.

...and wanted to know if you needed 'em.

Oh, okay.

Well, can we do it later?

I'm just so glad you're home.

It's so great to know I can come here any time...

...and you'll always be here, isn't it?

Yeah, it is.

If you got any more together, Brooke...

I'd have to start hating you.

That is so sweet.

So does this Jack know about what you're doing?

No, we haven't really talked about that.

He must. It's all over the school.

You don't think he's like Marcus, do you?

No, you would've caught on by now.

But you need to talk about it, explain it to him.

Otherwise all he's got to go on is vicious rumors.

Ladies.

And speaking of vicious.

Great news. You're being expelled?

I got straight As on all of my latest dresses here.

Check 'em out. Beauty and brains.

I am indeed the full package come to life.

I swear, one day, she is gonna get hers.

She cheated.

What? What?

She didn't design those dresses.

I knew it!

She's a big phony.

Wait. Then who did?

It wasn't my fault. I swear.

Oh, no, Rosa. We know it's not your fault.

Just... why don't you tell us what happened?

My mother works for her family...

...cleaning and taking care of the house.

That's how I met Candace.

When she saw my drawings...

...she said she'd help me get into the university.

But instead she's been ripping you off?

I can't say anything...

...or maybe my mom, she loses her job.

Well, we got to tell the dean.

Yeah, we'll tell him Monday morning.

We just need to gather all the evidence.

We're gonna need all your drawings, okay?

Don't worry, Rosa.

Candace won't get away with this.

No, sir. I'm sure we mailed it.

Foreclosure?

Now, why do you have to go and use a word like that?

Hello, Dean.

Let me call you back.

What's the matter?

You havin' a little trouble with the bank there, huh?

Sal, what are you doing here?

You've been a bad boy again, huh?

Stealing money from the school, right?

I told you, it's not for me.

It's for refurbishing the dean's mansion.

I can see.

You got very expensive taste in furniture.

Too expensive.

Sal, we had a deal.

As soon as the alumni come through...

I'll pay you back.

What deal?

There is no deal.

I want my money now. Now!

But I owe other people too.

Yeah, but with them, you just get a nasty phone call.

With me, you get Bruno.

Oh, hi, Bruno.

What's the matter?

You look a little hot there, Dean.

No wonder. This is so heavy.

You ever think about goin' with somethin'

...a little bit lighter, say, a 110?

So much softer, you know? Breathes better, you know?

It's done wonders for me. Look at this.

Oh, yeah.

See that? Yeah.

I sleep like a baby now. Well, thank you.

II'll give it some thought.

Terrific.

Now, I want to discuss a little business proposition with you.

Well, it's not exactly a proposition.

It's more like a... what do you call it?

Hostile takeover, boss.

Hostile takeover.

HH-hostile takeover?

As in, I take over the school.

This is a prime piece of real estate you got here.

I can turn a pretty penny.

But it's been in my family for generations.

Aw, we're gonna have to put up a plaque or somethin', you know.

Hey, we can put it right in the new parking lot...

which is going to be very soon.

...right here where your office is right now.

A parking lot?

What is this?

That's French, boss.

French?

Ming. Ming?

Ming.

I don't care for the Ming thing.

Ooh, look at those sparkles. That's good crystal.

It's leaded. Yeah, excellent quality.

I like that chair.

You got it, Mr. Hugo.

No, no.

Oh, my God.

You call that a pleat?

Drop stitch, and give me 20.

Wow, Ms. Sandusky is really on the ball this year.

I've lost it, guys, completely.

It's gone.

What are you talking about?

Very instinct I used to have, good-bye.

I totally suck at fashion.

You do not suck at fashion.

Page, help me.

Not totally.

What am I even doing? I don't belong here.

I'm completely fooling myself.

Hey, there's Jack.

I'll be right back. Be nice to her.

Hey, at least your fingers look thinner.

Here we go.

Come on, girls, let's do it!

Real loud, y'all!

So they actually give out awards for this stuff, huh?

They sure do.

Last year, I won the gold in welt pocket.

...and buttonhole stitch.

Oh, nice.

I think the only time I've ever won gold.

...is for a star in attendance.

Me too.

And I bet you were punctual as well.

Never late, grades 2 through 12.

What about first?

Ah, it was an accident.

Were you okay?

Yeah, it was with my jeans.

We had to go home and change.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

I have this bad habit of confessing.

...the weirdest things about myself.

Um, actually, I'm glad you said that.

I have a confession myself.

All right, Jack, this is it.

Don't blow it.

I'm sure you've heard some rumors around campus about me.

Are they true?

Yes and no. See, the thing is...

Actually, you know what, Brooke?

It doesn't matter. What?

Forget about it. It's not important.

What?

No, no, no, I need to tell you...

We... we all have our faults.

I mean, I once...

I stole a candy bar from a market.

I mean, it was an accident.

...because a friend of mine put it in my pocket...

...but the fact is, I broke the law.

Okay, but for me...

What is really important is what's in your heart...

...and I can tell that you have a good one.

Jack, listen.

I have been working for the...

Hey!

Can I have your attention, please?

Wait, what was that?

I have an important announcement to make.

I'll be right back.

Brooke, wait.

You idiot!

That's it, Jack. That's it.

Oh!

Can I have your attention, please?

I have a very important announcement to make.

Hello, people, people, please gather around.

Gather around, everybody.

I have a very important announcement to make.

...to you all today.

Tomorrow's sew-off is cancelled.

Aw, come on. That's ridiculous!

In fact, tragically...

we're closing down the entire school.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing I can do.

It's out of my hands.

Less competition for me.

Dean, you can't do this.

You mobsters, always ordering people around.

What? What are you talking about?

Sal Hugo runs things now.

This was his decision, not mine.

I need to go home and be with my furniture.

It might be my last chance.

Miss Taylor?

Or should I say Miss Sarto?

We need to talk.

Jack?

I'm sorry, Brooke.

Miss Sarto, you might want to call a lawyer about now.

I don't need a lawyer.

I haven't done anything wrong.

We'll let the federal prosecutor decide that.

I'm changing them, Mr. Tiernan.

I'm making the family legitimate.

Our contacts confirm it, sir.

Well, if that's true...

...perhaps you can help us with Sal Hugo.

It would go a long way in clearing your name.

No way, sir. That is way too dangerous.

We have other options.

Thank you, Jack, if that's your real name...

...but I don't need your phony concern.

My feelings were not phony.

Jack, let me handle this, please?

No, I understand that, sir, but I have a...

Hey!

I have my own issues with Sal Hugo.

He's trying to take over my school.

Then maybe we can help each other.

That's a really good idea, sir.

That was my idea.

No, I know, but I'm just suggesting that I could help...

We don't need your help. But it's not...

I don't want your help.

You should seek help.

I really should have changed my hair for this picture.

George, you've got to help us.

I can't pull together that kind of cash...

...not so fast.

Well, then, we'll raise it.

The school is not closing.

But what can we do?

What we do best.

We'll put on a fashion show.

Yes, that's perfect.

We'll sell all the clothes afterwards.

...and squeeze every penny we can get.

Well, we got a lot to squeeze, though.

Gonna take a lot of planning.

Can I be in charge of it?

I can do it.

Please.

Okay.

Hope I did the right thing.

You're the boss.

Yeah.

We will save the school!

Now come on back and sign up.

Hey!

Love has gotten me nowhere.

That's right, dear.

You let it out.

You'll feel better.

I'm always falling for the wrong guy, always.

It's like my keen senses only apply to fashion.

You aren't the only one.

Okay, yes, I lied too.

But I thought we really had something.

It turns out I'm just a way to advance his career.

Didn't work.

I've been suspended.

You, uh, mind if I join you?

You see, when I was a kid...

...my grandparents' shop was burned to the ground.

...by Sal Hugo.

That's why I initially joined the FBI...

...to take people like him down.

So now you want me to help you?

No, I just want you to understand why I did what I did.

Okay, look, it's knit one.

Purl two.

See?

This isn't more undercover work, is it?

I mean, you're not wired or anything, are you?

No.

The only thing undercover was my job.

My feelings have been out in the open the entire time.

I have to go.

Wait.

What are you gonna do about Sal?

Make him an offer he can't refuse.

Well, be careful.

Now, let me get this straight.

You're gonna get me my money...

...and you want to give me all of your businesses?

Xcept for the dress factory. That's nonnegotiable.

Keep it.

All those salaries with the dental insurance.

...and the 401 this and that.

Who wants it?

I do.

And all I gotta do.

...is to let you keep the fashion school open?

That's the deal, Sal.

I don't know.

Anything looks this perfect, usually there's something wrong.

Our families fight, and nobody wins.

In the end...

...maybe you'll be the one giving me your businesses.

You really think you could pull off something like that?

I do.

Okay.

Let's talk dollar amounts.

Cigar?

Okay, think, Dee.

What do we do? What do we do?

George! What's wrong?

Some of the models aren't here...

...and the show's about to start!

Dee, what is the holdup?

Some of the models aren't here...

...and the show's about to start!

What? Hey, what's going on?

You're late, and I'm tired of explaining it.

You know, somebody must have given the models.

...the wrong address.

Now, who would do that?

I've had about enough from her!

George, don't waste your time. Okay, look, let's not panic.

We will be the models.

Xcuse me?

Okay, Page and I will be the models.

But the sizes will be all wrong.

Please, girl, I can fit into anything.

Come on. Come on, now.

Yeah!

See? It's perfect.

Yeah, it's good.

Just mix and match some outfits.

...and make some alterations, please?

I think I'd rather model.

It's gonna be fine. George, help her.

What are you waiting for? For you to do everything.

You got the ability. I know you do.

You just need to trust yourself.

Okay.

Well, let's go! Let's do it!

Okay. Mix those outfits.

Brooke Sarto and Fashion University.

welcomes you to the first annual.

Save The School Fashion Show.

One minute, ladies!

One minute!

Don't just sit there, George.

Find me some pinking shears.

Move!

Thank you.

And once again, ladies and gentlemen...

...a sneak peek at the hottest new look of tomorrow.

Looks are from signature series appropriately labeled.

Crimes of Fashion.

Now let's give it up for your host...

...the boldest newcomer to the fashion world...

Brooke Sarto!

Your designs are stunning, my dear, absolutely stunning.

You are definitely going places.

But you still got the afternoon shift Friday.

Don't forget, 3:00 to 6:00.

Don't be late.

Brooke!

Neiman Marcus is downstairs and wants to talk to you.

What?

There is a buyer here from Bloomingdale's.

Can you believe it? Bloomies!

But how?

I called in a few favors, bent a few arms.

Bent, not broke.

You did it. You saved the school.

You're a real honest-to-God designer now.

Oh, I don't know.

Do you really think I'm ready for that?

Yes! Yes!

This is just the beginning.

It's everything you worked for.

Okay, there's just one more thing I have to do.

Okay, so we're square then, right?

I hand over all the illegal operations to you...

...and you let me keep the school.

I don't think so.

Wait. What?

We had a deal.

Yeah, and I just broke it, 'cause this way, I get it all.

See, I like parking lots...

...and your school has a lot of potential.

You can't do this.

What, are you kiddin'?

This is what I do best.

I lie.

I extort, except on my taxes...

'cause I don't even pay taxes.

See, I do bad things to good people.

And I enjoy it.

And the best part is that nobody can stop me.

Nobody.

That's a nice earring you got there.

Don't pay your taxes, huh?

That's not good, Sal.

Smile.

You're on Government Sting TV.

Nobody move!

Nobody move!

That was a joke.

It's all over, Sal.

Keep your hands up, sir.

Hey, careful. This is 110.

It's very delicate.

Tell it to a judge. Take him away, guys.

Bye.

Nice work, Jack.

Gonna get a commendation for this one.

Nice work.

Thanks.

So I guess you're all done with the case now.

Guess so.

That's what I thought.

But a complicated case like this...

...there's probably a lot of cleaning up to do.

Oh, yes, a lot.

Yeah, it could take weeks, even... Even months.

Well, you could start by interviewing me...

...you know, one-on-one.

Well, you are the star witness.

It was a joke.

I was kidding.

It was a joke.

Hey, Sal.

I told you we got somebody.

You...

Brooke, they arrested the dean for embezzling school funds.

Great. Who's gonna be the dean now?

Xpelled?

But how will this look on my rêsumê?

You cheated.

You stole someone else's designs and claimed them as your own.

Put that on your rêsumê.

Well, what about Brooke?

I mean, she's a mob boss.

Nothing in the rules against that.

Besides, I just don't like you.

Hi.

What's she doing here?

She is getting what she deserves.

I enrolled Rosa this morning.

Full scholarship.

Yours actually.

Works out very nicely.

Thank you so much.

It's been my dream to come here.

Can I go tell my mom?

Sure, go ahead.

Remember, though, class starts at 9:00.

Good work, dean.

You can still call me George.

This place is gonna look great when you add your touch...

...you know, get rid of the gold.

Hey, that's me with my asy-Sew...

...standing next to you.

I don't...

You were the ex-orphan.

You were Donny.

Yes, my special angel.

It was me.

I can't believe it.

Did my grandfather send you?

Brooke...

I am your grandfather.

What?

You're not my grandfather.

Come on.

That's...

Oh, my God.

You are my grandfather.

Why didn't you tell me?

You were so angry, I couldn't.

And when my cousin died, I faked my own death...

...and I was planning to disappear.

...once you took over the family and made it legit...

...but I couldn't.

Why? Why couldn't you?

You opened a piece of my heart that had been shut long ago.

So I couldn't leave you again.

Not ever.

Anyway, I know you can't forgive me for all this...

...but I... I did it for you.

I love you, Grandpa.

I love you too, sweetie.
