00:01:00Meeting's over.
00:01:08Nat, don't let Derek get to you.
00:01:10He just transferred in from corporate.
00:01:12He doesn't know how things work here yet.
00:01:14No.
00:01:15He knows exactly what he's doing.
00:01:18What do you mean?
00:01:19It's his first day, but he already knew my name and knew I'd been handling French work for six years.
00:01:27He pulled my employee file before that meeting.
00:01:29He needed someone to make an example of, and he picked me.
00:01:35Three emails from the French team.
00:01:37Contract terms for Harborswind's biggest international project.
00:01:41Normally, I'd translate them and send everything into the project team in no time.
00:01:44But now...
00:01:45Then it was never officially assigned to me.
00:01:48You chose to take it on.
00:01:50Not part of my job? Fine.
00:01:52Then I'm not doing it.
00:01:55Natalia, did you see those emails from the French team?
00:01:58The project team needs the translations. It's urgent.
00:02:01I already forwarded them to your team.
00:02:04You forwarded the originals. They're in French.
00:02:06None of us can read them. We need you to translate them.
00:02:09Ask Mr. Lod to send me a written assignment.
00:02:11Then I'll translate them.
00:02:13What? You never needed one before?
00:02:14That was before.
00:02:15Mr. Lod made himself clear.
00:02:17No written assignment means it isn't official work.
00:02:20I'm just an administrative coordinator.
00:02:22I wouldn't want to overstep.
00:02:24You.
00:02:24Anything else?
00:02:25If not, I have work to do.
00:02:36Mr. Martin is coming at the end of the month for a three-day site visit.
00:02:39He'll need an interpreter the whole time.
00:02:41I'm just an administrative coordinator.
00:02:43What does that have to do with me?
00:02:48Natalie, my office.
00:02:55You heard Mr. Martin's coming at the end of the month?
00:02:58I heard.
00:02:59He's an executive vice president at the France-based MBT Construction Group.
00:03:04He's overseeing Harbourstone's biggest international project this year.
00:03:09The contract is worth $140 million.
00:03:14And?
00:03:15I reviewed your file.
00:03:17You handled every one of Mr. Martin's visits for the past six years.
00:03:20You'll handle this one, too.
00:03:21You said translation wasn't part of my job.
00:03:24This is different.
00:03:26It's our biggest deal of the year.
00:03:27Are you restoring my stipium?
00:03:31The policy just changed.
00:03:33I can't make an exception for one employee.
00:03:35We'll treat it as additional duties.
00:03:37You can take a couple of paid days off afterwards.
00:03:39A couple of days off?
00:03:42Six years.
00:03:43Over a thousand translated documents.
00:03:46Dozens of client visits.
00:03:47More than 20 business negotiations.
00:03:50And all of that is worth a couple of days off?
00:03:53Mr. Lawson, I suggest you hire a professional interpreting agency.
00:03:59What exactly are you saying?
00:04:01My French isn't good enough.
00:04:04I'd hate to put the whole project at risk.
00:04:07So now you're playing games with me?
00:04:09Not at all.
00:04:10I'm just an administrative coordinator.
00:04:13Translation isn't in my job description.
00:04:15Your words.
00:04:21You.
00:04:24So you think this place can't function without you.
00:04:27And that means you can do whatever you want.
00:04:30You can leave.
00:04:32I don't need you here.
00:04:35Good luck.
00:04:43That.
00:04:43What did he want?
00:04:44He wants me to handle Mr. Martin's visit and interpret for him
00:04:48when he comes at the end of the month.
00:04:50And you.
00:04:51I said no.
00:04:54Are you out of your mind?
00:04:57That's Mr. Martin.
00:04:58The project is worth $140 million.
00:05:01It may be a $140 million project, but it's still not my problem.
00:05:06He said translation wasn't part of my job.
00:05:09Then what is the company supposed to do?
00:05:10I told him to hire a professional interpreting agency.
00:05:13Most agencies won't have a French interpreter with construction experience available on such short notice.
00:05:18The terminology is too specialized.
00:05:22I know.
00:05:23Then why would you...
00:05:25I also know Mr. Lawson won't restore my sticklage.
00:05:27So this isn't my problem anymore.
00:05:30Oh, Natalie.
00:05:33All afternoon, people kept going in and out of Derek's office.
00:05:36And with every call, his voice got louder.
00:05:40What do you mean you can't find anyone qualified?
00:05:42Is it really that hard to find a French interpreter with construction experience?
00:05:46You're telling me there isn't a single one available in the entire city?
00:05:50Money isn't the issue.
00:05:52Just keep looking and find someone qualified.
00:05:56$12,000 for three days?
00:05:57Are you kidding me?
00:05:58That's way over budget.
00:06:00What?
00:06:01Wednesday is the earliest you can send someone?
00:06:04Mr. Martin gets here Monday.
00:06:11Not my problem anymore.
00:06:12It's five.
00:06:13I'm done for the day.
00:06:29Natalie.
00:06:31Mr. Falster, I didn't know you were back.
00:06:33We need to have a quick meeting.
00:06:39Well, Mrs. Reid, nice of you to make time for us.
00:06:44Some people face one tiny setback and suddenly think they run the company.
00:06:49Enough.
00:06:50Mr. Martin arrives next Monday.
00:06:52We're settling the interpreter issue today.
00:06:55Derek, where do things stand?
00:06:58I contacted three interpreting agencies.
00:07:01French interpreters with construction experience are hard to find.
00:07:04The rates are high and none of them can meet our schedule.
00:07:09But I found another option.
00:07:11Chloe Parker has a master's degree from Leon School of Business.
00:07:15She lived and worked in France for three years and she speaks French fluently.
00:07:19She joined our administration department last month.
00:07:22Hi, everyone.
00:07:23I lived in France for three years, so everyday French won't be a problem.
00:07:28I've also interpreted at several business events.
00:07:32You can count on me.
00:07:36Are you familiar with construction terminology?
00:07:40I can prepare in advance.
00:07:42Wasn't Natalie supposed to handle this?
00:07:45She's worked with the French team for six years.
00:07:47She knows the project better than anyone.
00:07:49Natalie is an administrative coordinator.
00:07:51Translation isn't part of her job.
00:07:53The old arrangement wasn't properly structured, so I corrected it.
00:07:56Besides, Chloe has formal academic credentials and studied in France.
00:08:00On paper, she looks more qualified than Natalie.
00:08:03Natalie, what do you think?
00:08:04Mr. Foster, I think...
00:08:11Mr. Lawson is right.
00:08:12What?
00:08:14Translation really isn't part of my job.
00:08:16I handled it for six years because the company needed me and I never said no.
00:08:20But now Mr. Lawson has made a new arrangement.
00:08:23Chloe lived in France for three years, so she must be more qualified than I am.
00:08:29I'll follow the company's decision.
00:08:32See, even Natalie agrees Chloe is the better choice, so...
00:08:36Fine. Chloe will prepare for the visit.
00:08:38Natalie, put together copies of the previous French project materials and give them to her.
00:08:44Of course.
00:08:47Natalie, please get those French reference materials together for me this afternoon.
00:08:51I need time to review them.
00:08:54Sure.
00:08:54I'll have them ready this afternoon.
00:08:58And don't take this personally.
00:09:00I'm not trying to steal your work.
00:09:02Mr. Just Lawson, you already had enough to do, so he asked me to help.
00:09:06Do you have a DALFC2 diploma?
00:09:09A what?
00:09:11Did you pass the DALFC2 exam?
00:09:14I went to business school.
00:09:15I didn't need that.
00:09:16What professional interpreter training have you completed?
00:09:19I've interpreted at business events.
00:09:21Mr. Martin is coming to negotiate a joint R&D agreement involving pre-stressed, pre-caft concrete systems.
00:09:28It covers structural mechanics, materials engineering, construction methods, and a lot of highly specialized terminology.
00:09:35Chloe, do you know what pré-contrae means?
00:09:42Chloe, do you know what pré-contraines means?
00:09:45I, I, I'll give you copies of the materials this afternoon.
00:09:49You'd better start preparing.
00:09:55Matt, I saw you talking to Chloe.
00:09:58Why are you helping her?
00:10:00Who said I was helping her?
00:10:02Then why did you warn about the technical neurology?
00:10:05I just wanted her to understand what she was taking on.
00:10:09She can't handle it.
00:10:17Mr. Lawson, you're here early.
00:10:20Why are you so jumpy?
00:10:21Were you here all night?
00:10:23I stayed late to go through the materials Natalie gave me.
00:10:27How's the preparation going?
00:10:29Mr. Lawson, there's a lot of technical nephronology.
00:10:32I, I...
00:10:33You spent three years in France.
00:10:36Natalie can handle this, but you can't.
00:10:38I, I studied business.
00:10:40Construction and engineering are completely different.
00:10:43When you said your French was excellent, you never told me you couldn't handle technical material.
00:10:48Mr. Lawson, this guide compiles six years worth of French construction terminology.
00:10:52It has more than 300 frequently used terms, each with project-specific context and Mr. Martin's preferred wording.
00:11:01There's no way I can learn all of this in a few days.
00:11:03Enough.
00:11:04You promised you could handle this.
00:11:05If anything goes wrong, you won't have a job here.
00:11:15Matt, I heard Derek contacted two more interpreting agencies today.
00:11:19One quoted $18,000 for three days.
00:11:21The other said they couldn't handle technical French for construction.
00:11:26Did he agree to the $18,000?
00:11:28Of course not.
00:11:30Mr. Foster only approved a $7,000 budget.
00:11:34Derek doesn't have the authority to go over it.
00:11:36Then Chloe is his only option.
00:11:38There's more.
00:11:39Derek told Mr. Foster that Chloe's fully prepared and can handle the visit.
00:11:45But we both know she can't.
00:11:51So?
00:11:53Nat, could you maybe...
00:11:55Chloe was Mr. Lawson's choice.
00:11:57I'm just an administrative coordinator.
00:12:00It's not my place to interfere.
00:12:02This is bigger than that.
00:12:03Mr. Martin is coming to finalize the technology transfer terms for phase two.
00:12:08The technical appendict alone, 80 pages, is 80 pages of French.
00:12:14Are you really going to let Chloe translate all of that?
00:12:16Then talk to Mr. Lawson.
00:12:17I did.
00:12:18He said Chloe could handle it.
00:12:20Then there's no problem.
00:12:22You've changed.
00:12:23No, I haven't.
00:12:25Someone just made it clear that none of what I did ever counted as real work.
00:12:29I handled French translation and interpreting for six years.
00:12:33I was never late and I never made a mistake.
00:12:35For the first three years, I received nothing extra.
00:12:38Then all I got was a $295 monthly stipend and now that's gone too.
00:12:43Fine.
00:12:43Let's see what they do without me.
00:12:47You translated clause of the reciclation as resolution clause.
00:12:52It means termination clause.
00:12:55I'm sorry, Mr. Lawson.
00:12:56I...
00:12:56And you translated guarantee disenail as a standard 10-year product warranty.
00:13:00In this contract, it means a detennial structural liability guarantee.
00:13:04Do you understand even basic construction contract terminology?
00:13:06I'm asking you one last time.
00:13:08Can you do this job or not?
00:13:09I'll revise it again.
00:13:24Natalie, can I ask you something?
00:13:27Go ahead.
00:13:33This term, bacon fibrae ultra hoose performance.
00:13:36Your notes say ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete,
00:13:40but another Glossatite uses ultra high performance concrete.
00:13:44Which term should I use?
00:13:46Both.
00:13:47For this project, use ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete, UPTFCR.
00:13:52Mr. Martin usually uses the French advocation BFUP,
00:13:55but that's the English term MBT uses in its technical documents.
00:13:59When he uses the and variation,
00:14:01just interpret it as ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete.
00:14:04Okay.
00:14:06Wait, there's another one.
00:14:09Chloe,
00:14:11terminology isn't the only thing you need to learn.
00:14:13You also need to know how Mr. Martin talks.
00:14:15He speaks fast,
00:14:17uses slang,
00:14:17and makes jokes
00:14:19in the middle of formal negotiations.
00:14:21If you can't keep up,
00:14:22the whole conversation will stall.
00:14:25I'll go back and memorize more.
00:14:27That's the problem.
00:14:28Interpreting isn't about looking up words
00:14:30and memory rising definitions.
00:14:32You have to understand the concepts
00:14:35before you can switch between languages naturally.
00:14:39You read the emails from the French team before I did, didn't you?
00:14:43They were sent to the shared project inbox.
00:14:46Of course I read them.
00:14:47You knew I'd get it wrong.
00:14:50You did this on purpose.
00:14:52You wanted to watch me fail, didn't you?
00:14:54Why didn't you warn me?
00:15:00Chloe, there are no shortcuts in interpreting.
00:15:02Living in France for three years or even 30
00:15:05doesn't make you a professional interpreter.
00:15:07Speaking French isn't enough.
00:15:11That letter from the French team
00:15:12is written in formal legal French.
00:15:14It's completely different from everyday business French.
00:15:16They don't teach that at business school.
00:15:19What good does that do me now?
00:15:21What am I supposed to do?
00:15:23Tell Mr. Lawson the truth.
00:15:25I can't.
00:15:26Derek said if I screw this up, I'm fired.
00:15:29Chloe, where are you?
00:15:30Come here.
00:15:31We need to go over the revised contract.
00:15:33Coming.
00:15:38Nat, don't you think you were a little hard on her?
00:15:40I wasn't being cruel.
00:15:43I know exactly what she's going through.
00:15:45The night before I first interpreted
00:15:46for Mr. Martin six years ago,
00:15:49I was so nervous I didn't sleep at all.
00:15:52The difference is,
00:15:53before I ever walked into that meeting,
00:15:55I spent four years training
00:15:57and earning the professional credentials I needed.
00:16:01Chloe didn't.
00:16:03Mr. Martin lands at six on Sunday evening.
00:16:06She has two days to prepare.
00:16:18Hi, Natalie.
00:16:19This is Sophie Dubois,
00:16:20Mr. Martin's U.S. project liaison.
00:16:22We've boarded.
00:16:23Mr. Martin asked me to tell you
00:16:25he loved the restaurant you recommended last time.
00:16:28Could you make another reservations in there for us?
00:16:31Six years,
00:16:32and he still remembers.
00:16:41Hello?
00:16:42Nat,
00:16:42do you know what time it is?
00:16:44You're still asleep.
00:16:45I finally have a day off.
00:16:48I wanted to sleep in.
00:16:49Forget sleeping.
00:16:50Get up.
00:16:51Check the announcement Derek just posted
00:16:53in the company team's channel.
00:16:56Executive Vice President
00:16:58LeR Martin of MB&BT Construction Group
00:17:00will arrive at the airport at 6 p.m.
00:17:02Chloe Parker will handle the pickup
00:17:04and bring Hearthstone's French welcomes letter.
00:17:08Natalie Reed is not required to attend.
00:17:11Nat,
00:17:12Derek's determined to make sure Mr. Martin doesn't see you.
00:17:15Let him.
00:17:17But,
00:17:18what if Mr. Martin gets here and you're not there?
00:17:21Won't he?
00:17:21Oh,
00:17:21he'll ask where I am.
00:17:23And then?
00:17:25Then Derek gets to explain.
00:17:27You're really not going to do anything?
00:17:31I finally have a day off.
00:17:34I'm going to relax
00:17:36and wait for the show to start.
00:17:39Derek blew up again.
00:17:40He spent half an hour tearing into Chloe.
00:17:43They're leaving for the airport.
00:17:44Are you really not coming in to help?
00:17:50Miss Reed,
00:17:52we just made our connection.
00:17:53Mr. Martin says
00:17:54there's no need for a big reception at the airport.
00:17:57He only wants you there.
00:18:06Hello, Maggie.
00:18:07It's bad.
00:18:08Really bad, Nat.
00:18:09Chloe just caused a disaster at the airport.
00:18:39Why isn't your usual interpreter here?
00:18:42You mean Natalie Reed?
00:18:44She's off today.
00:18:45We made a staffing change for this visit.
00:18:48You must be Ms. Dubois.
00:18:49I've heard you're Mr. Martin's right hand.
00:18:51And you speak English?
00:18:52Great.
00:18:53That'll make things much easier for us.
00:18:55Mr. Lawson,
00:18:57I'm Mr. Martin's senior executive assistant.
00:18:59I'm not your interpreter.
00:19:03Allons-y.
00:19:05Mr. Lawson, I...
00:19:07Move.
00:19:07Haven't you embarrassed us enough?
00:19:13Maggie, what happened?
00:19:15It's a disaster, Nat.
00:19:17Chloe completely blew it at the airport.
00:19:22Slow down.
00:19:23What happened?
00:19:25I couldn't understand the French,
00:19:27but Chloe was stammering and shaking.
00:19:29Mr. Martin looked furious.
00:19:31I have to ride back to the office with everyone.
00:19:33I'll tell you everything tomorrow.
00:19:47Natalie, you are required to attend tomorrow business meeting.
00:19:50He is a formal work directive.
00:19:52Please send me a written assignment.
00:19:55You'll get it.
00:19:56Six years.
00:19:58And this will be the first written assignment I've ever received.
00:20:04This is only the beginning.
00:20:08What's night?
00:20:10I'm fine.
00:20:11The written assignment you asked for?
00:20:14Supporting.
00:20:16Chloe is still the lead interpreter.
00:20:21Do you have a problem with that?
00:20:23No.
00:20:25Mr. Martin and his team will be here soon for the company tour.
00:20:28Chloe is the lead interpreter.
00:20:30You're there to support her.
00:20:32You only speak when she asks for help.
00:20:34Understood?
00:20:35Understood.
00:20:37One more thing.
00:20:39Don't mention that you used to interpret for Mr. Martin.
00:20:42He may not even remember you.
00:20:44Fine.
00:20:46Come on.
00:20:47Mr. Martin is here.
00:20:51Nat.
00:20:53Don't worry, Maggie.
00:20:55Just sit back and watch.
00:21:02Mr. Foster.
00:21:04What took you so long?
00:21:10Mr. Martin, bienvenue.
00:21:17Nathalie, ma chère amie, vous m'avez manqué.
00:21:20Vous aussi.
00:21:26Daniel, cela fait six ans.
00:21:28Chaque fois que je viens, c'est Mademoiselle Reed qui m'accueille.
00:21:31C'est la parternerie professionnelle en qui j'ai le plus confiance aux Etats-Unis.
00:21:34J'ai été très déchoui de ne pas la voir hier à l'aéroport.
00:21:37Je souhaite qu'elle assure l'interprétation de toutes les réunies d'aujourd'hui.
00:21:41Chloe, what did Mr. Martin say?
00:21:42I, I, I didn't catch all of it.
00:21:46You, you, Natalie, you tell me.
00:21:49Mr. Martin said he's happy to be at Harborswood and appreciates the warm welcome.
00:21:55Mr. Martin, let's head over to the prefabrication center and take a look at the new equipment.
00:22:02Mr. Reed, that wasn't exactly what he said.
00:22:05I didn't have much choice.
00:22:06Someone specifically told me not to draw attention to my history with Mr. Martin.
00:22:09I was just following instructions.
00:22:11I don't know anything about the politics inside your company.
00:22:14But I do know this.
00:22:15Anyone who pushes out someone as talented as you is going to regret it.
00:22:23Mr. Martin, this is our new pre-farm product line.
00:22:27Mr. Martin, voici la nouvelle série de produits de notre entreprise.
00:22:30Pour le nou de connexion de cet élément pré-placté, utilisez-vous une onection humide ou une onection sèche.
00:22:38Quel niveau de performance sismique peut-il attendre?
00:22:46I...
00:22:47Chloe, what are you waiting for?
00:22:49You're the interpreter.
00:22:50What did Mr. Martin say?
00:22:51Don't you understand French?
00:22:53I understand the French, but I don't know the construction terms he used.
00:22:58Perhaps Ms. Reed can answer his question.
00:23:03Natalia, translate.
00:23:05Mr. Foster, Chloe is the lead interpreter.
00:23:07She hasn't asked me for help, so I'm not supposed to speak.
00:23:13Natalie, translate.
00:23:17Mr. Martin asked about the connection system for the pre-fabricized component and its seismic performance.
00:23:22Mr. Martin, notre système utilise une connexion hybrique combininant des jonculés en place et des assemblages mécaniques à sac.
00:23:30Il est conconstu pour les zones de forte sismité.
00:23:33Et il répond aux exigences de la catégorie de conception sismique D.
00:23:44Mr. Foster, Mr. Martin is very pleased with your products.
00:23:48We can begin the detailed technical negotiations this afternoon and discuss the terms of the partnership.
00:23:55That's great.
00:23:56I'll have the car take you back to the hotel so you can rest.
00:23:59We'll see you this afternoon.
00:24:03Mr. Foster?
00:24:06Natalie, you'll be the lead interpreter for this afternoon's technical negotiations.
00:24:14Mr. Lawson's written assignment says Chloe is supposed to...
00:24:18I'm changing the assignment.
00:24:19Effective immediately, you're the lead interpreter for this afternoon's negotiations.
00:24:23I'll have an abended written assignment issued before the meeting.
00:24:28Alright.
00:24:29Make sure you're prepared.
00:24:31I will.
00:24:38Fine.
00:24:40You can interpret this afternoon.
00:24:42But don't say anything unnecessary in front of Mr. Martin.
00:24:46Translate what's said and keep the personal conversations out of it.
00:24:49Are you teaching me how to do my job, Mr. Lawson?
00:24:52I'm reminding you to know your place.
00:24:54You're an administrative coordinator, not a diplomat.
00:24:57I know exactly what my job is.
00:24:59The real question is, do you remember yours?
00:25:11Natalie, what did he say?
00:25:14Mr. Foster, I think I'll skip that one.
00:25:17Natalie, you're an interpreter.
00:25:19Stick to interpreting.
00:25:21Stop adding your own spin to everything.
00:25:24Mr. Lawson, Mr. Martin said the new interpreter you hired is finally gone and things are finally back to normal.
00:25:30Mr. Foster, I...
00:25:32Just sit down.
00:25:36Natalie, the French technical addendic is 80 pages.
00:25:39You were taken off the assignment, so you haven't seen the latest draft.
00:25:42Are you sure you can handle it?
00:25:44It shouldn't be a problem.
00:25:45I translated the first five drafts.
00:25:47I know every revision and every new provision they added.
00:25:50Daniel, concernant les frais de licence technologique à de la phase 2,
00:25:54notre proposition est de 12% du montant total du contrat.
00:25:59Mr. Foster, MBT is proposing a technology licensing fee equal to 12% of the total contract value.
00:26:05That's too high.
00:26:06We agreed on 8% for phase I.
00:26:08Mr. Martin, c'est trop élevé.
00:26:10Pour la phase 1, nous avions négocié un taux de 8%.
00:26:13Daniel souhaitait également vous rappel que l'équipe d'ingénierie de Harbourstone
00:26:17a assimilé la technologie de la phase 1 bien plus rapidement que prévu.
00:26:22Notre dépendance à l'élation des MBT sera donc nâtrement moire pour la phase 2.
00:26:31Natalie, what are you saying?
00:26:33This is a 140 million project.
00:26:36Don't make trouble.
00:26:37I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to do, protecting the company's interests.
00:26:41You should do your job too, starting with not telling an expert how to do her job.
00:26:45You.
00:26:479.5%.
00:26:49Je ne peux pas descendre plus bas.
00:26:52Natalie.
00:26:52Mr. Martin has agreed to lower the licensing fee to 9.5%.
00:26:58Over the next three hours, I interpreted more than 20,000 words of technical provisions,
00:27:03helped resolve 17 disputed clauses,
00:27:05and diffused two misunderstandings caused by cultural differences.
00:27:09Not once did I hesitate.
00:27:10Not one mistake.
00:27:12Bon, d'accord.
00:27:14Vous êtes vraiment redédable.
00:27:159%.
00:27:16C'est mon dernier prix.
00:27:17Je ne peux pas faire mieux.
00:27:19Nous en reparlerons en détail demain.
00:27:21Natalie.
00:27:21Did he agree to 9%?
00:27:23Yes.
00:27:24We'll finalize the details tomorrow.
00:27:26That works for us.
00:27:27We'll finalize the remaining details tomorrow.
00:27:31Thank you.
00:27:32I'm looking forward to an even stronger partnership between our companies.
00:27:37Natalie, vous êtes la meilleure interprétante avec laquelle j'ai jamais travaillé.
00:27:43Mr. Martin said, you're the best interpreter he's ever worked with.
00:27:46Since Ms. Reed is too modest to translate that herself,
00:27:50I thought I'd help.
00:27:55Mr. Foster, I'll go see them out.
00:28:00Natalie, that one sentence you added saved the company at least 4.2 million.
00:28:04You just became the hero of this entire project.
00:28:06I only stated the facts.
00:28:08Maybe.
00:28:09Maybe.
00:28:09But how many people could connect all those facts and use them at exactly the right moment?
00:28:15You understand this project better than some of the people in project management.
00:28:27When Derek first suggested replacing you with Chloe for Mr. Martin's visit, I didn't approve it right away.
00:28:34But honestly, I only hesitated because you've been doing it for years.
00:28:37I never thought much about what the job actually required.
00:28:41I understand.
00:28:42You agreed to replace me in the end.
00:28:44After all, how hard could interpreting be?
00:28:48Now I know.
00:28:49Not everyone can do what you do.
00:28:51When you handled these meetings before,
00:28:54did you often step in and protect the company's interests like you did today?
00:28:58Sometimes.
00:28:59Over the past six years,
00:29:00have you ever calculated how many problems you're interpreting prevented
00:29:04or how much money you saved the company on the MBT projects?
00:29:08No.
00:29:10During the break, I called finance and asked them to run the numbers.
00:29:16Their rough estimate is that you've saved this company at least five millions over the past six years.
00:29:23That's funny.
00:29:24I was just thinking,
00:29:26after all these years,
00:29:27someone finally sees what I contributed,
00:29:29even if it took a financial report to make that happen.
00:29:32Your monthly translation stinge was $2.90, right?
00:29:36It was.
00:29:38It was canceled.
00:29:41It was.
00:29:43It was canceled.
00:29:45Canceled?
00:29:46When?
00:29:48One of Derek's first moves after taking over was cutting costs.
00:29:52He canceled every stimpip that wasn't tied to an employee's official job description.
00:29:56I guess he decided to make an example out of me.
00:29:59When Derek reported the policy change to me,
00:30:02I didn't know the details.
00:30:03It's fine, Mr. Foster.
00:30:05You don't have to explain.
00:30:07Derek followed company policy.
00:30:09You really think he did nothing wrong?
00:30:13Interpreting was never included in my official job description.
00:30:16Honestly, I should thank him.
00:30:18If he hadn't pointed it out,
00:30:20I might never have realized that in six years,
00:30:23the company never issued me a single written assignment for interpreting.
00:30:27Your position is administrative coordinator.
00:30:29Interpreting isn't part of your job description.
00:30:31And if I remember correctly,
00:30:32you've been doing it for six years without ever receiving a written assignment.
00:30:36Right?
00:30:37So for six years,
00:30:38the company relied on work it never formally added to my position,
00:30:41and that work saved Harbourstone at least $5 million.
00:30:47Natalie, I'm going to look into this right now.
00:30:49Don't worry.
00:30:49You have my word.
00:30:51I'll get you an answer.
00:30:57$5 million.
00:30:59Natalie,
00:30:59that $295-ler's monthly translation stape is being canceled too.
00:31:07Hello?
00:31:08Hi.
00:31:08Natalie, it's Sophie.
00:31:10Mr. Martin wants to know if you can join him for dinner tomorrow night
00:31:13at that Chinese restaurant you two went to before.
00:31:15He brought a bottle of 2005 Bordeaux from France
00:31:17and said he wants to share it with an old friend.
00:31:20Please thank Mr. Martin for me.
00:31:22But as for tomorrow night's dinner,
00:31:24the company will have to decide my schedule.
00:31:28Natalie,
00:31:30there's something Mr. Martin asked me to tell you in advance.
00:31:33You should prepare yourself.
00:31:35Tomorrow's formal meeting,
00:31:37he's going to make a request
00:31:38that may put your company
00:31:41in a difficult position.
00:31:43What kind of request?
00:31:44He wants a designated interpreter clause
00:31:47added to the Phase 2 agreement.
00:31:49All English-French communication
00:31:51for the project must be handled by you.
00:31:52If you're unavailable,
00:31:54MBT will pause performance
00:31:55until both companies approve a replacement.
00:31:57Are you sure?
00:31:58Those were Mr. Martin's exact words.
00:32:02I understand.
00:32:03Please thank him for me.
00:32:09Mr. Martin is the executive vice president
00:32:12of MBT Construction Group.
00:32:14He controls Harborstone's largest international project,
00:32:17a contract worth $140 million.
00:32:21A $140 million contract
00:32:23hinging on a $50,000 a year administrative coordinator.
00:32:27Derek, did you ever imagine this?
00:32:36Good, everyone's there.
00:32:38Before Mr. Martin and Mr. Foster arrive,
00:32:40let's have a quick briefing.
00:32:41Where's Chloe?
00:32:43Chloe called in sick.
00:32:45Sick.
00:32:48Yesterday hit her pretty hard.
00:32:53Alright, let's begin.
00:32:55This is Mr. Martin's second day here.
00:32:57Today's priorities are the site inspection
00:32:59and tonight's dinner.
00:33:01Now, Natalie will continue as interpreter.
00:33:03But, I want to make one thing clear.
00:33:06Natalie is here to interpret.
00:33:08She is not authorized to participate
00:33:10in business decisions.
00:33:12Your job is to relay what's said,
00:33:14not negotiate.
00:33:15Understood.
00:33:16He can't do the self the job,
00:33:18so they tear down anyone who can.
00:33:21What did you say?
00:33:26Mr. Foster.
00:33:28Mr. Martin, you're here.
00:33:30La surprise que je vous ai préparée.
00:33:32Sophie vous en parlez?
00:33:33Oui, je suis déjà au couillon.
00:33:36Mr. Martin asked if there was much traffic
00:33:38on the way here.
00:33:39No traffic at all.
00:33:40Easy ride over.
00:33:42Come on, let's get the site inspection started.
00:33:47Actually,
00:33:49I speak a little English.
00:33:51Could it be
00:33:52Mr. Martin saw how they were treating me
00:33:54and that's why he came up
00:33:56with the contract clause?
00:33:59Mr. Martin,
00:34:00merci.
00:34:02Natalie,
00:34:03you don't deserve it.
00:34:10If that's true,
00:34:11then things are about to get interesting.
00:34:14Mr. Martin wasn't some executive
00:34:16who only knew how to sit behind a desk.
00:34:18He understood the technical side
00:34:20better than almost anyone.
00:34:22At every inspection point,
00:34:24he'd crouch down,
00:34:25examine the smallest details,
00:34:27and ask questions so technical
00:34:29they left the project team scrambling.
00:34:31The data,
00:34:33we'll have to go back
00:34:34and check the technical records.
00:34:36Natalie,
00:34:37vous connaissez la réponse?
00:34:38Natalia,
00:34:39don't forget what you promised me.
00:34:41This is serious company business,
00:34:43not your chance to show off.
00:34:44This time,
00:34:45I didn't even have to fight back myself.
00:34:47Enough!
00:34:47You heard him, Natalie.
00:34:48Mr. Foster is telling you to stop him.
00:34:50I was talking to you.
00:34:52Derek,
00:34:52haven't you caused enough trouble already?
00:34:54Mr. Foster,
00:34:55what did you say?
00:34:56Natalie,
00:34:57from now on,
00:34:57if something helps this company,
00:34:59you do whatever you think is necessary
00:35:00when dealing with Mr. Martin.
00:35:02You have my full authority.
00:35:05Understood.
00:35:07Natalie,
00:35:08you know the answer?
00:35:09The ultimate resistance
00:35:10to the tension
00:35:11indicated in the report
00:35:12is of 362 megaparts.
00:35:14Natalie,
00:35:14what did he ask?
00:35:15Mr. Martin asked
00:35:16for the mechanical performance value
00:35:17of the granted sleuth's connector.
00:35:19I gave him the figure
00:35:20from the last technical mamamanta.
00:35:23You remember details?
00:35:24That technical?
00:35:25The number appeared
00:35:26in a technical meminaire MBT
00:35:28Fent three months ago.
00:35:29I remembered it
00:35:30when I translated the document.
00:35:35Then why didn't any of you know it?
00:35:37The original memore was in French.
00:35:39We never looked at the translated version.
00:35:42Where was the translation?
00:35:45Natalie translated
00:35:46and sent it to us.
00:35:47The site team just
00:35:49didn't pay much attention to it.
00:35:50Natalie is an administrative coordinator,
00:35:53yet she knows
00:35:53the technical details
00:35:55of your own project
00:35:56better than you do.
00:35:57Aren't you embarrassed?
00:35:58Mr. Foster,
00:36:00the inspection
00:36:00is almost over.
00:36:02Derek has already arranged
00:36:04a welcome dinner
00:36:04for Mr. Martin
00:36:05at the hotel.
00:36:06I'll let this go for today,
00:36:07but all of you
00:36:08need to start learning
00:36:08from someone
00:36:09who actually knows
00:36:10this project.
00:36:13Mr. Martin,
00:36:13write this way.
00:36:14Harbourstone has prepared
00:36:15a welcome dinner for you.
00:36:17Nat,
00:36:18you're way too nice.
00:36:19After everything Derek's done to you,
00:36:20you still gave him a way out.
00:36:21Who said I was giving him a way out?
00:36:23Mr. Martin is allergic
00:36:25to faux gras.
00:36:27I didn't include that
00:36:28in the briefing materials.
00:36:29As far as I know,
00:36:30I'm the only person
00:36:31at Harbourstone who knows.
00:36:33Then the welcome dinner
00:36:34take arranged.
00:36:35Proving my value
00:36:36was only step one.
00:36:37Step two
00:36:37is making the people
00:36:39who were never qualified
00:36:40for their positions
00:36:41and tried to climb over me
00:36:42pay for it.
00:36:47Mr. Martin,
00:36:48we had a few unpleasant moments
00:36:50during today's inspection,
00:36:51but that's all behind us now.
00:36:53Here's to a smooth
00:36:54and successful partnership.
00:36:59Mr. Martin,
00:37:00I personally selected
00:37:01an authentic French menu
00:37:03for tonight.
00:37:04Please, enjoy.
00:37:07Mr. Martin,
00:37:08Derek a fait préparer
00:37:09spécialement pour vous
00:37:10un menu français traditionnel.
00:37:12Je vous en prie, goûtez.
00:37:17Is something wrong?
00:37:20Harbourstone has worked
00:37:21with us for six years.
00:37:22Is this really how you treat
00:37:23an important business partner?
00:37:26Mr. Martin,
00:37:27I put a lot of thought
00:37:28into this dinner.
00:37:30What exactly is the problem?
00:37:32There's foie gras on the menu.
00:37:34Mr. Martin is allergic to it.
00:37:36You didn't know that?
00:37:37You knew, didn't you?
00:37:38Mr. Martin has mentioned it
00:37:39every time he's visited
00:37:40over the past six years.
00:37:42Of course I knew.
00:37:42Then why didn't you put something
00:37:44that important
00:37:45in the briefing materials?
00:37:46You asked me to prepare
00:37:47interpreting materials.
00:37:48You took full responsibility
00:37:50for the hospitality arrangements,
00:37:51which means it was
00:37:52your responsibility
00:37:52to confirm dietary restrictions
00:37:54with MBT.
00:37:55After all,
00:37:56Natalie is here to interpret.
00:37:58She is not authorized
00:37:59to participate
00:38:00in business decisions.
00:38:01Your job is to relay
00:38:02what's said,
00:38:03not negotiate.
00:38:04I'm just the interpreter.
00:38:06Your words,
00:38:07not mine.
00:38:09That's ridiculous.
00:38:10You're twisting my words.
00:38:12We came here for dinner,
00:38:13not to watch your company's
00:38:14internal power struggle.
00:38:17So how are you planning
00:38:18to fix this?
00:38:20Mr. Foster,
00:38:21you saw what happened.
00:38:24Natalia knew Mr. Martin
00:38:25was allergic to foie gras,
00:38:26and she deliberately
00:38:27kept quiet to set me up.
00:38:29She just wanted to make herself
00:38:31look like the hero.
00:38:33Are you finished?
00:38:35Didn't you hear
00:38:36what Ms. Dubois just said?
00:38:38Haven't you embarrassed
00:38:39this company enough already?
00:38:43Natalie,
00:38:44you know Mr. Martin
00:38:45better than anyone here.
00:38:48What should we do?
00:38:49Mr. Foster,
00:38:51Derek and I
00:38:52may have our differences,
00:38:53but he was right
00:38:54about one thing.
00:38:54I'm only an administrative
00:38:56coordinator assigned
00:38:57to interpret.
00:38:58For six years,
00:38:59I've taken on responsibilities
00:39:01far beyond
00:39:02my official position.
00:39:03Derek taught me
00:39:04something important.
00:39:06Responsibility means nothing
00:39:08without the authority
00:39:09to act.
00:39:11Effective immediately.
00:39:13Derek will no longer
00:39:14oversee anything related
00:39:15to Mr. Martin
00:39:15or the MBT partnership.
00:39:18Natalie,
00:39:18you're taking over.
00:39:19Mr. Foster?
00:39:20Thank you, Mr. Foster.
00:39:22Don't let me down.
00:39:34I've replaced it
00:39:35with Proveneo Ratitouille
00:39:36and Veal Medallions,
00:39:38Mr. Martin's favorite.
00:39:39This plate is for me.
00:39:49Mr. Martin said he appreciates
00:39:53Harborstone's thoughtful
00:39:54arrangements.
00:39:54He thinks the menu
00:39:55was very considerate.
00:39:56I was thanking you,
00:39:57Natalie, not your company.
00:39:58You speak English.
00:40:01Mr. Martin loves learning.
00:40:04After working with Harborstone
00:40:05for six years,
00:40:06he naturally picked up
00:40:06some English.
00:40:07I love America.
00:40:08My daughter graduates
00:40:09from college this year.
00:40:10She studied English
00:40:11and international business
00:40:12and she wants to intern
00:40:14here next year.
00:40:14I told her,
00:40:15when you come to America,
00:40:16find Natalie.
00:40:17She'll take care of you.
00:40:19I see.
00:40:23Mr. Martin,
00:40:24let's eat while we talk.
00:40:27Natalie,
00:40:27you know Mr. Martin's
00:40:29daughter too.
00:40:30Yes,
00:40:30she visited the UAS
00:40:31four years ago
00:40:32and Mr. Martin asked me
00:40:33to look after her
00:40:34for a few days.
00:40:35Your personal relationship
00:40:37with Mr. Martin
00:40:37runs much deeper
00:40:38than I realized.
00:40:40We've worked together
00:40:41for years.
00:40:43Naturally,
00:40:44we got to know
00:40:44and know each other.
00:40:47Right, go ahead.
00:40:49There's one more thing.
00:40:52Lors de la réunion
00:40:53de six questions
00:40:53de demain matin,
00:40:54je sois fait ajouter
00:40:55une condition supplémentaire
00:40:56à la nousse du contrat.
00:40:58J'en présenterai
00:40:58officiellement
00:40:59les détails demain.
00:41:00Mr. Martin said
00:41:01he wants to add
00:41:02an additional condition
00:41:03to the contract exhibit
00:41:04at tomorrow morning's
00:41:05signing meeting.
00:41:06He'll formally present
00:41:07the details then.
00:41:08Can he give us a hint?
00:41:09Cela concerne
00:41:10une personne en particulier.
00:41:11It concerns
00:41:12a specific person.
00:41:16Have a safe ride back.
00:41:17We'll see you tomorrow.
00:41:24I wonder what condition
00:41:26Mr. Martin plans
00:41:27to add tomorrow.
00:41:28Natalie,
00:41:29I heard what it is.
00:41:30He wants you named
00:41:31as the project's
00:41:31designated interpreter.
00:41:33If Harbourstones refuses,
00:41:35MBT won't move forward
00:41:36with the deal.
00:41:37What?
00:41:38Natalie,
00:41:38is that true?
00:41:40You already knew.
00:41:42Ms. Dubois mentioned
00:41:43that Mr. Martin
00:41:43might propose
00:41:44a designated interpreter clause,
00:41:46but I can't be certain
00:41:47that's what he'll
00:41:47formally present tomorrow.
00:41:48You're not sure.
00:41:49You and Mr. Martin
00:41:50are so close
00:41:51and he didn't
00:41:51tell you himself.
00:41:52Whatever condition
00:41:53Mr. Martin proposes
00:41:54is MBT's decision.
00:41:56I don't control him.
00:41:57You can't control him
00:41:58with everything
00:41:59you can supposedly do?
00:42:00Don't be so modest.
00:42:02Mr. Lawson,
00:42:03if you're angry
00:42:04because Mr. Foster
00:42:05transferred your responsibilities
00:42:06to just say it,
00:42:07there's no need
00:42:08for the sarcasm.
00:42:09I'm being sarcastic.
00:42:11You're the one who,
00:42:11Natalie,
00:42:12did you conspire
00:42:13with MBT
00:42:13to set all of this up?
00:42:16I've worked with Mr. Martin
00:42:17for six years.
00:42:18I have never done anything
00:42:19that harmed
00:42:20Harborstone's interests.
00:42:21Then why would he insist
00:42:22on putting your name
00:42:24in the contract?
00:42:25Because he trusts me.
00:42:28Trusts you?
00:42:29You're a $50,000 a year
00:42:30administrative coordinator
00:42:32and an executive vice president
00:42:33at MBT trusts you that much?
00:42:35Who do you think you are?
00:42:36That's not a question
00:42:37you should be asking me,
00:42:38Mr. Lawson.
00:42:39Ask Mr. Martin yourself tomorrow
00:42:41or are you too afraid
00:42:42to ask him?
00:42:42Natalie!
00:42:45Talk to Mr. Martin.
00:42:47Tell him not to propose
00:42:48that clause tomorrow.
00:42:48Are you serious,
00:42:50Mr. Lawson?
00:42:50I don't care how you do it.
00:42:52That clause cannot appear
00:42:53in the contract.
00:42:54You're an administrative coordinator.
00:42:55Putting your name
00:42:56in a $140 million agreement
00:42:58would make this company
00:42:59look ridiculous.
00:43:00Did you forget
00:43:01that I'm now in charge
00:43:02of everything related
00:43:03to Mr. Martin?
00:43:04Besides,
00:43:05Mr. Foster is standing
00:43:06right here.
00:43:06I don't think you're
00:43:07in any position
00:43:08to order me around.
00:43:09She's right.
00:43:10What exactly
00:43:10would it make the company
00:43:12look like, Mr. Lawson?
00:43:13Go on.
00:43:13I'd love to hear the rest.
00:43:14It would look like
00:43:15Natalie was holding
00:43:16the company hostage.
00:43:17Derek!
00:43:19My patience with you
00:43:20has limits.
00:43:21Mr. Foster,
00:43:22Natalie knew Mr. Martin
00:43:23was allergic to Fue Grago,
00:43:25but she deliberately
00:43:26kept it from me.
00:43:27She wanted me to fail
00:43:28so she could take over.
00:43:30Now she's even working
00:43:31with MBT
00:43:32to force the company's hand.
00:43:34Enough!
00:43:35Stop talking about
00:43:36blackmail and conspiracies.
00:43:38Natalie was only assigned
00:43:39to interpret.
00:43:39No,
00:43:40she's an administrative
00:43:41coordinator
00:43:42who was doing interpreting
00:43:43on top of her regular job.
00:43:45Yet she knew
00:43:45the technical details
00:43:47of the project
00:43:48and Mr. Martin's
00:43:48personal requirements
00:43:49better than anyone.
00:43:52You were the person
00:43:53in charge.
00:43:53And all you did
00:43:54was embarrass the company
00:43:55over and over again.
00:43:57You know how much
00:43:57you make.
00:43:58You know how much
00:43:58she makes.
00:43:59Doesn't that bother you
00:44:00at all?
00:44:02If Natalie hadn't
00:44:03stepped in tonight,
00:44:05one allergy incident
00:44:06could have cost us
00:44:07at least a month
00:44:08of damage control
00:44:09and client recovery work.
00:44:11And you call that
00:44:12blackmail.
00:44:13Mr. Foster,
00:44:14I was careless.
00:44:15Just give me
00:44:15one more chance.
00:44:17Go home.
00:44:18From now on,
00:44:19stay out of everything
00:44:20involving Mr. Martin.
00:44:25Mr. Foster,
00:44:27I...
00:44:30Natalie,
00:44:30there's something
00:44:31I'd like to discuss
00:44:31with you in private.
00:44:33All right.
00:44:37Mr. Foster.
00:44:46Natalie,
00:44:47I'll get straight
00:44:48to the point.
00:44:49Mr. Martin
00:44:50wants you named
00:44:51as the designated
00:44:52interpreter in the contract.
00:44:54His.
00:44:55Did you know
00:44:56about it in advance?
00:44:59MBT's liaison
00:44:59gave me a heads up.
00:45:02Why didn't you report it?
00:45:04I was told
00:45:04that my only job
00:45:05was to interpret
00:45:06and that I wasn't allowed
00:45:07to interfere
00:45:08in business negotiations.
00:45:10Those were Derek's
00:45:11exact words.
00:45:13Derek claims
00:45:14you pushed MBT
00:45:15into proposing
00:45:16the clause.
00:45:17Mr. Foster,
00:45:18I've worked for this company
00:45:19for six years.
00:45:21Not once
00:45:22have I done anything
00:45:23to harm
00:45:24Harborstone's interests.
00:45:26I won't defend myself
00:45:27against something
00:45:28I didn't do.
00:45:29Check every translation record
00:45:31and every set of meeting minutes
00:45:32from the past six years.
00:45:33The facts will speak
00:45:34for themselves.
00:45:36I already did.
00:45:42Over the past six years,
00:45:43the documents you translated
00:45:45covered contracts
00:45:46worth more than
00:45:47$250 million in total.
00:45:49Every translation
00:45:50was error-free.
00:45:52You also handled
00:45:5313 business negotiations.
00:45:55Conservatively speaking,
00:45:56the improved terms
00:45:57you secured
00:45:58saved the company
00:45:58more than $5 million.
00:46:02I had finance
00:46:03and project management
00:46:05work late
00:46:05to compile
00:46:06those numbers.
00:46:08Do you know
00:46:08what I thought
00:46:09when I first saw them?
00:46:11No.
00:46:14I couldn't believe it.
00:46:16An administrative coordinator
00:46:18making $50,000 a year
00:46:20created that much value
00:46:21for this company
00:46:22over six years
00:46:23and I'm the regional president
00:46:24I didn't know
00:46:25until today.
00:46:27And all this time,
00:46:28I thought approving
00:46:29a $295 monthly
00:46:31translation stipend
00:46:32was already doing you
00:46:33a favor.
00:46:34Natalie,
00:46:35this company failed you.
00:46:37We failed to recognize
00:46:38everything you contributed.
00:46:39Mr. Foster.
00:46:40Let me finish.
00:46:43After you told me
00:46:44Derek canceled
00:46:45your translation stipend,
00:46:46I had someone
00:46:47look into it.
00:46:51Now, I know
00:46:52he wasn't simply
00:46:52enforcing company policy.
00:46:55He was pushing out
00:46:56anyone who stood
00:46:57in his way.
00:46:58Pushing out anyone
00:46:59who stood in his way?
00:47:01You mean,
00:47:02Chloe?
00:47:03Chloe worked under him
00:47:04at his previous company.
00:47:06I didn't know that.
00:47:08You don't have
00:47:08to cover for him.
00:47:12Pulled the HR records.
00:47:15Chloe's R. Chumi says
00:47:17she has a master's degree
00:47:18from the Lyons School of Business,
00:47:19but an independent
00:47:21credential verification service
00:47:22couldn't confirm it.
00:47:23We've also contacted
00:47:24the school registrar directly.
00:47:27So Chloe may have lied
00:47:29about her degree?
00:47:30We don't know that yet.
00:47:32The investigation
00:47:33is still ongoing,
00:47:34but whatever the result is,
00:47:36there's only one person
00:47:37I trust at tomorrow's
00:47:38signing meeting.
00:47:40You.
00:47:42What's this?
00:47:43A temporary written authorization,
00:47:45effective immediately.
00:47:46I'm appointing you
00:47:47as Harborstone's
00:47:48lead interpreter
00:47:48for the signing meeting.
00:47:49You'll have full authority
00:47:50to review and confirm
00:47:51all English-French contract language
00:47:53on the company's behalf.
00:47:56Finally,
00:47:57no one could ever
00:47:58use my work
00:47:59to climb higher,
00:48:00then turn around
00:48:00and tell me it didn't count
00:48:01because I volunteered?
00:48:03I'd finally earned
00:48:04my seat at the table.
00:48:08Thank you.
00:48:09I'll be ready.
00:48:11There's one more thing.
00:48:12Go ahead.
00:48:13The condition
00:48:14Mr. Martin plans to propose,
00:48:15if he insists on it,
00:48:16how do you think
00:48:17Harborstone should respond?
00:48:19Accept it.
00:48:20Give me one reason.
00:48:22Mr. Martin isn't making
00:48:23an unreasonable demand.
00:48:24He's telling you
00:48:25that his partnership
00:48:26with Harborstone
00:48:27depends on one thing.
00:48:29Trust.
00:48:30And thanks to Chloe
00:48:31and Derek's
00:48:32spectacular performance,
00:48:33I'm currently the only person
00:48:35at this company
00:48:35he trusts.
00:48:36If Harborstone rejects
00:48:38the clause,
00:48:39he'll believe the company
00:48:40doesn't respect
00:48:40the one thing
00:48:41he values most.
00:48:43Natalie,
00:48:43do you understand
00:48:44what this means?
00:48:45Once your name
00:48:46is written into
00:48:46that contract,
00:48:47you won't be
00:48:48just an administrative
00:48:49Keredner anymore.
00:48:51I know.
00:48:52And I don't want
00:48:53to be just an
00:48:54administrative Keredner anymore.
00:48:55Are you sure
00:48:56you've thought
00:48:56this through?
00:48:59Mr. Foster,
00:49:00I've known exactly
00:49:01what I wanted
00:49:01for six years.
00:49:03No one ever
00:49:04bothered to ask me.
00:49:06Signing meeting
00:49:06starts at 10
00:49:07tomorrow morning.
00:49:09Go home,
00:49:09get some rest,
00:49:10and be ready.
00:49:11I will.
00:49:12Natalie,
00:49:13my apology
00:49:14came six years
00:49:15too late.
00:49:16But some things
00:49:18won't be late
00:49:19anymore.
00:49:22We've already
00:49:22reviewed the
00:49:23major terms.
00:49:24This is the final
00:49:25English-French version
00:49:26of the Phase 2
00:49:27Agreement.
00:49:28Please review it
00:49:29one last time
00:49:29before signing.
00:49:31If any details
00:49:32still need to be
00:49:32revised,
00:49:33we can discuss
00:49:34them now.
00:49:38MBT would like
00:49:39to add one
00:49:39supplemental clause.
00:49:41Go ahead.
00:49:43Here it comes.
00:49:45During the term
00:49:45of this agreement,
00:49:46all English-French
00:49:47technical document
00:49:48translation meeting
00:49:48interpreting and
00:49:49business communications
00:49:51between MTB and
00:49:52Harborstone must be
00:49:53handled by Ms.
00:49:54Natalie Reed.
00:49:55If Ms. Reed becomes
00:49:57unable to perform
00:49:58these duties,
00:49:59both parties must
00:50:00agree in writing
00:50:01on a replacement.
00:50:02Neither party may
00:50:02replace the designated
00:50:03interpreter without
00:50:04the other party's
00:50:05written consent.
00:50:07Mr. Foster,
00:50:08this clause is
00:50:09unreasonable.
00:50:09Interpreter assignments
00:50:10are an internal
00:50:11staffing matter for
00:50:12Harbor Tilt.
00:50:13They shouldn't be
00:50:13written into a
00:50:13commercial contract.
00:50:14I already told you,
00:50:15you're no longer
00:50:16involved in matters
00:50:18concerning Mr.
00:50:20Martin.
00:50:21Mr. Martin,
00:50:23Harborstone is
00:50:23prepared to accept
00:50:24this clause in
00:50:25principle.
00:50:26But I need to
00:50:27understand why you're
00:50:28so insistent on naming
00:50:29Natalie specifically.
00:50:31Mr. Martin,
00:50:32Harborstone est disposé
00:50:33à accepter cette clause
00:50:34en principe.
00:50:36Mais j'aimerais
00:50:37comprendre pourquoi
00:50:38vous t'avez temps
00:50:39à désigner
00:50:40Natalie Reed en
00:50:41particulier.
00:50:43Il y a six ans,
00:50:45je suis revenu
00:50:46pour la première
00:50:46soie chez
00:50:47Harborstone.
00:50:48Six years ago,
00:50:49I came to
00:50:49Harborstone for the
00:50:50first time.
00:50:51À l'époque,
00:50:51je doutais que
00:50:52Harborstone puisse
00:50:53répondre aux
00:50:53exigences d'MDB
00:50:54sur le gros marché
00:50:55américain et j'étais
00:50:57prêt à repartir
00:50:57sans accord.
00:50:58C'est Natalie Reed
00:50:59qui m'a fait changer
00:51:00d'avis.
00:51:02Elle ne se contente
00:51:03pas de traduire
00:51:03mes phrases.
00:51:06Elle en rend
00:51:07les inquietures
00:51:08chroniques.
00:51:09En même temps,
00:51:11elle présente
00:51:11vos capacités
00:51:14techniques.
00:51:15En ce manque
00:51:16renuit de
00:51:16désalordes majeures.
00:51:20Ce n'est pas
00:51:21parce qu'il n'y a
00:51:21jamais eu de
00:51:22conflits.
00:51:22C'est parce que
00:51:23chaque fois qu'un
00:51:23problème est sursué,
00:51:24Natalie a sous
00:51:25le désaliment.
00:51:26Elle n'est pas
00:51:26seulement une interprétation.
00:51:30ce n'est donc pas
00:51:32une interprétation
00:51:34dans les affaires
00:51:35internes.
00:51:36C'est ainsi que
00:51:37je protège
00:51:37un $140 million
00:51:39investisseur.
00:51:43Monsieur Martine,
00:51:44votre décision
00:51:45des gens
00:51:45est bien mieux
00:51:46que moi.
00:51:47Je dois
00:51:48admettre ça.
00:51:49Monsieur Floster,
00:51:51Harborstone
00:51:52accepte la clause.
00:51:53Pas de objection,
00:51:54Monsieur Lawson.
00:51:56L'assassin.
00:52:09Pleasure doing business
00:52:10with you.
00:52:11Miss Reed,
00:52:13could you stay
00:52:13for a moment?
00:52:14Mr. Martin
00:52:14would like to speak
00:52:15with you.
00:52:16Of course.
00:52:17Natalie,
00:52:18ceci est pour vous.
00:52:25Vous essayez
00:52:26de me recruter?
00:52:29Je ne vous demande
00:52:30pas de quitter
00:52:31Harborstone.
00:52:32Vous pouvez
00:52:33continuer
00:52:33votre travail
00:52:34là-bas.
00:52:37MBT vous propose
00:52:38un contrat
00:52:38de consultrice
00:52:39des Strength.
00:52:40Vous examinez

00:52:45de nos activités

00:52:52et participerai
00:52:53à nos réunions
00:52:53stratégiques
00:52:54nord-américaines.
00:52:56Monsieur Martin,
00:52:57120 000 dollars
00:52:58par an,
00:52:58c'est trop.
00:52:59Vous valez ce prix.
00:53:00En réalité,
00:53:01c'est même inférieur
00:53:02à votre dirital valeur.
00:53:04Mais je sais
00:53:05que vous ne travaillez
00:53:06pas seulement
00:53:06par l'argent.
00:53:07Je n'ai pas proposé
00:53:08d'Aveland
00:53:09de peur de vous affrayer.
00:53:11J'ai besoin
00:53:11d'y réfléchir.
00:53:12Bien sûr.
00:53:13Prendez votre temps.

00:53:22Comment le savez-vous ?
00:53:24Nathalie,
00:53:25vous pensiez vraiment
00:53:26que je enquêterais
00:53:28sur mes investissements
00:53:29sans me licencier
00:53:30sur les personnes
00:53:31en qui j'ai confiance ?

00:53:39Language Services
00:53:39LLC,
00:53:40founder and managing
00:53:41member Natalie Reed.
00:53:43Primary Services,
00:53:44French-English
00:53:44Translation
00:53:45and Interpreting.
00:53:46Last year's revenue...
00:53:48You don't have
00:53:48to read the rest.
00:53:50$450,000.
00:53:51Not bad at all.
00:53:53You work
00:53:53at Harbourstone
00:53:54during the day
00:53:55doing unpaid
00:53:56interpreting
00:53:56on top of
00:53:57your administrative job
00:53:58then run
00:53:59LinguaBall
00:53:59at night
00:54:00and on weekends.
00:54:01With a team
00:54:02of only four people,
00:54:03$450,000
00:54:05in annual revenue
00:54:06is impressive.
00:54:07Harbourstone
00:54:07doesn't know
00:54:08about LinguaBreak.
00:54:09Maggie doesn't know.
00:54:10Derek definitely
00:54:11doesn't know.
00:54:12I never expected
00:54:13Mr. Martin
00:54:14to be the first
00:54:14person to find out.
00:54:15When were you
00:54:17talking to Harbourstone
00:54:19I never wanted
00:54:20to talk to them.
00:54:22Why?
00:54:25Because there was
00:54:26no conflict
00:54:27of interest.
00:54:28I work for LinguaBridge
00:54:30only in two hours
00:54:31of my work.
00:54:33I never accepted
00:54:34a mission
00:54:35for a
00:54:35counter-reur
00:54:36of Harbourstone.
00:54:36I never used
00:54:37the resources
00:54:38of the company.
00:54:39And I never let
00:54:41this activity
00:54:41affect
00:54:42the partnership
00:54:43with MTV.
00:54:45It was perhaps
00:54:46not a problem
00:54:47when you were
00:54:48only an administrative
00:54:49ignored of all.
00:54:53But now,
00:54:55your name
00:54:56is in a major
00:54:57contract
00:54:58of the company.
00:54:59From now
00:55:00you will never
00:55:00be able to
00:55:01be able to
00:55:01be able to.
00:55:04We can't have
00:55:07It's for that
00:55:08that I'm
00:55:08going to
00:55:09close LinguaBridge.
00:55:12No,
00:55:13don't close it.
00:55:15This is your business.
00:55:17Build it into something
00:55:18bigger.
00:55:19I thought
00:55:20you wanted
00:55:21to become
00:55:21a consultant
00:55:22for MTE.
00:55:23If I continue
00:55:24to lead LinguaWeb,
00:55:26I would have
00:55:26less time
00:55:26to consider you.
00:55:27No,
00:55:28no,
00:55:28no.
00:55:29I don't want to
00:55:30recruit you,
00:55:31Natalie.
00:55:31I want to help you.
00:55:32It's six years
00:55:34you wrote me
00:55:35a letter
00:55:35of recommendation
00:55:36which led me
00:55:37to Harbourstone.
00:55:39Today,
00:55:40I want to write
00:55:41one for you
00:55:42so that the world
00:55:43entire
00:55:43discover
00:55:44Natalie Reed.
00:55:46I don't understand
00:55:46what you're talking about.
00:55:49In 2018,
00:55:50MBT
00:55:51cherchait
00:55:51a partner
00:55:52of construction
00:55:53in the United States.
00:55:54Several companies
00:55:55participated
00:55:56in the call
00:55:56of the offer.
00:55:57In the last step,
00:55:59I received
00:55:59a letter
00:56:00of recommendation
00:56:02in French.
00:56:05His professionalism
00:56:06and his strength
00:56:06of persuasions
00:56:07were marked
00:56:08in the way.
00:56:09This letter
00:56:10analyzed in detail
00:56:11the advantages
00:56:11techniques
00:56:12of Harbourstone
00:56:13and its potential
00:56:13on the market.
00:56:15Each number
00:56:16was accompanied
00:56:16of a proof.
00:56:19she had to be
00:56:20anonymous.
00:56:21Otherwise,
00:56:22you would have
00:56:22found her
00:56:23author
00:56:23for a long time.
00:56:25She had to be
00:56:26anonymous.
00:56:27But the technical
00:56:28cited in the letter
00:56:30and her writing style
00:56:31correspond exactly
00:56:32to all the documents
00:56:33that you have
00:56:33translated for me
00:56:33in the next step.
00:56:36Ms. Reed,
00:56:38you wrote the letter
00:56:39that convinced
00:56:39Mr. Martin
00:56:40to work with Harbourstone
00:56:41six years ago,
00:56:42didn't you?
00:56:48Natalie,
00:56:50was it you?
00:56:53What did you just say?
00:56:54Natalie wrote that letter.
00:56:55That's impossible!
00:56:58Qu'elle fou.
00:57:00Don't start speaking
00:57:01French at me.
00:57:02Enough.
00:57:03Leave Miss Dubossi
00:57:04alone.
00:57:05She's right.
00:57:07I wrote the letter.
00:57:09No.
00:57:09When did you write it?
00:57:12Early 2018.
00:57:13I'd been at Harbourstone
00:57:14for six months.
00:57:15While organizing
00:57:16the company archives,
00:57:17I learned Harbourstone
00:57:18was competing
00:57:19to become MBT's
00:57:20U.S. construction
00:57:21partner.
00:57:22Seven companies
00:57:22were in the running
00:57:23and Harbourstone
00:57:24ranked last.
00:57:25I analyzed
00:57:26Harbourstone's
00:57:27technical strengths,
00:57:29wrote a recommendation
00:57:30letter in French,
00:57:31and submitted it
00:57:32through MBT's
00:57:34public submissions inbox.
00:57:36You were six months
00:57:38into an entry-level
00:57:39administrative job
00:57:40and you reached out
00:57:41to a French
00:57:41multinational
00:57:42on your own.
00:57:43Yes.
00:57:44Who authorized you?
00:57:46No one.
00:57:46No one even knew.
00:57:48Do you have any idea
00:57:49how serious that is?
00:57:51You contacted
00:57:52an outside company
00:57:53without authorization
00:57:54and acted
00:57:55on Harbourstone's
00:57:56behalf.
00:57:57That's enough.
00:57:58Mr. Foster,
00:58:00keep going, Natalie.
00:58:01In 2018,
00:58:02Harbourstone
00:58:03had no real track record
00:58:04in international projects.
00:58:05We were dead last
00:58:06among the seven bidders.
00:58:08I knew that
00:58:09if I waited
00:58:09for the usual
00:58:10internal process,
00:58:11we wouldn't stand a chance.
00:58:12So,
00:58:13I organized
00:58:14Harbourstone's
00:58:15technical materials
00:58:16and wrote the letter myself.
00:58:18And then?
00:58:18Mr. Martin
00:58:19read the letter
00:58:20and decided
00:58:21to inspect
00:58:21Harbourstone in person.
00:58:22That visit
00:58:24led to the partnership
00:58:25MBT
00:58:26and Harbourworld
00:58:27have maintained
00:58:28for the past
00:58:28six years.
00:58:32That was Mr. Martin's
00:58:33first visit
00:58:34to Harbourstone.
00:58:34It was also the first time
00:58:36I interpreted for him.
00:58:37So,
00:58:37you're telling me
00:58:39MBT didn't initially
00:58:40choose Harbourstone
00:58:41because of our bid proposal.
00:58:43Mr. Martin came here
00:58:44because of your letter.
00:58:45The letter only gave him
00:58:46a reason to take
00:58:47a closer look.
00:58:48Harbourstone's proposal
00:58:49still mattered.
00:58:51No.
00:58:52without that letter
00:58:53I would never have come.
00:58:57Why didn't you
00:58:58ever tell anyone?
00:59:02No one ever asked.
00:59:05For six years
00:59:06you brought in
00:59:07this company's
00:59:08largest international client,
00:59:09translated thousands
00:59:10of documents
00:59:11and helped close contracts
00:59:13worth more than
00:59:14$250
00:59:15and you never said a word?
00:59:17What would it have changed?
00:59:19The company had
00:59:20its promotion procedures?
00:59:21there wasn't even
00:59:22approved headcount
00:59:23for a language services role.
00:59:25Speaking up
00:59:26wouldn't have created
00:59:27a position for me.
00:59:28The translation
00:59:29Stimpage wasn't introduced
00:59:30until three years ago
00:59:31and now even that's
00:59:32been taken away.
00:59:33Whether I spoke up
00:59:34or stayed quiet,
00:59:35the result was always the same.
00:59:37No.
00:59:37This time the result
00:59:38will be different.
00:59:40Mr. Foster,
00:59:40you're not actually
00:59:41planning to...
00:59:42Mr. Martin,
00:59:43the agreement has been signed.
00:59:44Thank you for your cooperation.
00:59:46I'm sorry,
00:59:47but I won't be able
00:59:47to accompany you
00:59:48back to the hotel today.
00:59:49I need to convene
00:59:50an internal leadership meeting
00:59:51immediately
00:59:52about Harberstone's
00:59:54language services
00:59:54staffing structure,
00:59:55Natalie's position
00:59:56and certain personnel matters.
01:00:00Mr. Foster,
01:00:01I can explain...
01:00:01You can explain
01:00:02at the meeting.
01:00:04Then we will leave.
01:00:06Mr. Foster,
01:00:07you have business to handle.
01:00:10Enfin,
01:00:11vous n'aurez plus
01:00:11à laisser les autres
01:00:12s'attribuer vos réussites.
01:00:15Thank you,
01:00:16Mr. Martin.
01:00:19Réfléchiez bien
01:00:19à ma proposition.
01:00:21J'espère que
01:00:22notre prochaine rencontre
01:00:23aura lieu à Paris.
01:00:33Everyone,
01:00:35come in.
01:00:35We're having a meeting.
01:00:37I have several
01:00:38important decisions
01:00:40to announce.
01:00:44This meeting
01:00:45will address
01:00:46three issues.
01:00:47First,
01:00:47Natalie's position.
01:00:49Second,
01:00:49the creation
01:00:50of a language services
01:00:52and international affairs department.
01:00:54Third,
01:00:55the personnel changes
01:00:56connected to everything
01:00:57that happened today.
01:00:59First,
01:01:00Natalie spent six years
01:01:01performing
01:01:02professional interpreting duties
01:01:03while officially classified
01:01:05as an
01:01:06and administrative coordinator.
01:01:07The work she actually did
01:01:09went far beyond
01:01:10her job description.
01:01:11The company
01:01:12is responsible
01:01:13for allowing
01:01:14that to continue.
01:01:15My decision
01:01:15is that,
01:01:16effective immediately,
01:01:18Natalie's position
01:01:19will be changed.
01:01:20Mr. Foster,
01:01:21before you make
01:01:22that decision,
01:01:22there are some things
01:01:23I have to make clear.
01:01:26Six years ago,
01:01:27you contacted MBT
01:01:28without authorization.
01:01:29Now,
01:01:30Mr. Martin
01:01:30has put you
01:01:31into a 140 million contract.
01:01:33You used your personal
01:01:34relationship with him
01:01:35to secure your position.
01:01:37You're holding
01:01:37Harborstone hostage.
01:01:39Finished.
01:01:41I submitted
01:01:42that recommendation
01:01:43through MBT's
01:01:44public partner
01:01:45sourcing process.
01:01:47Individuals
01:01:48and companies
01:01:49were both
01:01:49allowed to apply.
01:01:51I used my
01:01:51personal email
01:01:52and clearly stated
01:01:53it was a personal
01:01:54recommendation.
01:01:55I never claimed
01:01:56to represent
01:01:57Harborstone.
01:02:02No Harborstone email.
01:02:04No company letterhead.
01:02:06No unauthorized use
01:02:07of the company's name.
01:02:09That doesn't explain
01:02:10the designated
01:02:11interpreter clause.
01:02:13Ms. Dubois told me
01:02:15Mr. Martin
01:02:15was considering
01:02:16that clause.
01:02:17This was my response.
01:02:20Please ask Mr. Martin
01:02:21to reconsider.
01:02:22This could put
01:02:23Harborstone
01:02:23in a difficult position.
01:02:30I didn't ask him
01:02:31to add the clause.
01:02:32I tried to stop him.
01:02:36He insisted
01:02:37because you took away
01:02:38my translation
01:02:39stipode
01:02:39and tried to replace me
01:02:40with someone unqualified.
01:02:42What else do you
01:02:43have to say?
01:02:44I...
01:02:45Next matter.
01:02:46Mrs. Brooks.
01:02:49The verification
01:02:49results for Chloe Parker's
01:02:51academic credentials
01:02:52are in.
01:02:55Why were Chloe's
01:02:57credentials investigated?
01:02:58Because I ordered it.
01:03:00Ms. Brooks,
01:03:01continue.
01:03:02Lyon School of Business
01:03:03confirmed that Chloe
01:03:04attended a six-month
01:03:05exchange program,
01:03:07but she never earned
01:03:08the master's degree
01:03:09listed on her resume.
01:03:11She falsified her degree?
01:03:13I didn't know.
01:03:14She told me
01:03:15she had the degree.
01:03:16Chloe never went
01:03:16through standard
01:03:17credential verification.
01:03:20You sponsored her
01:03:21for expedited
01:03:22hiring approval
01:03:23and wiped the
01:03:24verification requirement.
01:03:29That's your signature.
01:03:30Did she deceive you
01:03:32or did you knowingly
01:03:32help her bypass
01:03:33the hiring process?
01:03:34I trusted her.
01:03:37I made a bad
01:03:39judgment call.
01:03:40You used someone
01:03:42with falsified
01:03:43credentials
01:03:43to replace
01:03:44an employee
01:03:45who had done
01:03:46professional translation
01:03:47work for six years.
01:03:49than your hand-picked
01:03:51interpreter
01:03:52nearly cost
01:03:53Harborstone
01:03:54a $140
01:03:56million agreement.
01:03:59Chloe performed
01:04:00during this badly
01:04:01during the reception.
01:04:02And while not
01:04:02to play as fair,
01:04:03it's a different
01:04:03very magical date
01:04:04I'm convinced from me,
01:04:05but she was replaced
01:04:06before any real damage
01:04:07was done.
01:04:08She also helped Natalie
01:04:09with some project documents.
01:04:10This wasn't
01:04:11a catastrophic failure.
01:04:13Are you sure?
01:04:14What now?
01:04:15Chloe's already
01:04:16been exposed.
01:04:17Do you have
01:04:17to keep attacking her?
01:04:19I'm not attacking Chloe.
01:04:21There's simply something
01:04:22I never told any of you.
01:04:25One of the documents
01:04:26she handled
01:04:27nearly brought
01:04:28the entire negotiation
01:04:29to a halt.
01:04:34Le contraire
01:04:35indice une longueur
01:04:35d'un cache de 35D.
01:04:37Mais ce manin
01:04:38sur le chantier,
01:04:39j'ai vu du 28D.
01:04:41Il mente
01:04:417 diamènes.
01:04:44Une modification
01:04:45a été approuvée
01:04:46il y a 3 mois.
01:04:48La norme définitive
01:04:49est bien de 35-2.
01:04:53Les éléments
01:04:53A-28-2
01:04:54proviennent
01:04:55de l'ancien plan
01:04:55et sont en cours
01:04:56de remplacement.
01:04:58La version
01:04:59sion française
01:05:00aurait de vous être
01:05:00envoyée
01:05:01la semaine dernière.
01:05:06We never received
01:05:07the French version.
01:05:13Who handled
01:05:13that change order?
01:05:17Chloe.
01:05:20Chloe.
01:05:21So that's why
01:05:21you asked me
01:05:22about the change order.
01:05:23Chloe failed
01:05:25to deliver
01:05:25the final
01:05:26French version.
01:05:28I don't know
01:05:29whether she omitted
01:05:30the change,
01:05:31mistranslated it,
01:05:33or never completed
01:05:34the document.
01:05:36Because of that error,
01:05:38Sophie recommended
01:05:39that MTB
01:05:40suspend negotiations.
01:05:44How did you fix it?
01:05:46I was worried
01:05:47something might go wrong,
01:05:49so I independently
01:05:50translated and archived
01:05:52every critical
01:05:53project document.
01:05:54I sent MTB
01:05:55the correct version
01:05:56immediately.
01:05:59You translated
01:06:00everything again?
01:06:01Yes.
01:06:02The work you said
01:06:03I had no right
01:06:04to touch
01:06:04saved the agreement.
01:06:08Without you,
01:06:09we could have lost
01:06:09a 140 million deal.
01:06:12This company
01:06:13has relied on
01:06:14your expertise
01:06:15for six years
01:06:16without giving you
01:06:18the position
01:06:18or authority
01:06:19you deserved.
01:06:21That ends today.
01:06:23Effective immediately,
01:06:24Harborstone
01:06:25is establishing
01:06:26a language services
01:06:27and international
01:06:28affairs department.
01:06:30Natalie Reed
01:06:30will serve
01:06:31as its director.
01:06:37Effective immediately,
01:06:39all external relations
01:06:40responsibilities
01:06:41will transfer
01:06:41from administration
01:06:42to Natalie's department.
01:06:44Chloe Parker's
01:06:44employment is terminated.
01:06:49don't think
01:06:50you've won.
01:06:51This isn't over.
01:06:54Then I'll be waiting.
01:07:02I really did
01:07:03live in France,
01:07:04but Derek told me
01:07:06my bachelor's degree
01:07:07wasn't enough,
01:07:08so he convinced me
01:07:08to change my resume.
01:07:10He pushed you,
01:07:12but you still
01:07:13made the choice.
01:07:16I studied those terms
01:07:17for three days
01:07:18and three nights.
01:07:19I know,
01:07:21but it wasn't enough.
01:07:23There are no shortcuts.
01:07:26Be careful.
01:07:28Corporate Vice President
01:07:30Victor Hale
01:07:30is Derek's backer.
01:07:32They won't let this go.
01:07:37I'm sorry.
01:07:53This is attacking you.
01:07:55Derek has to be behind it.
01:07:59No proof.
01:08:02And this isn't
01:08:03his real move.
01:08:03Natalie!
01:08:05Victor Hale is here.
01:08:07He asked for you by name.
01:08:11Right on schedule.
01:08:14Corporate is eliminating
01:08:15your department.
01:08:16Language services
01:08:17will return to administration.
01:08:18You can report to Derek
01:08:19or transfer out.
01:08:20That isn't a choice.
01:08:22The agreement designates me,
01:08:24not a department.
01:08:25If you force me out,
01:08:26MBT can suspend performance
01:08:28until both sides approve
01:08:29a replacement in writing.
01:08:30She's holding the company hostage
01:08:32and she's secretly running
01:08:34her own language services company.
01:08:36Corporate received Derek's
01:08:37conflict of interest complaint.
01:08:41LinguaBridge never worked
01:08:43for a Harbourstone competitor,
01:08:44never used company resources,
01:08:46and every project
01:08:47was completed
01:08:47outside my working hours.
01:08:50The bank records,
01:08:52contracts,
01:08:53and delivery files
01:08:54are all here.
01:08:55Several of your clients
01:08:55are Harbourstone suppliers.
01:08:57Check the dates.
01:08:58They hired LinguaBridge
01:08:59before they became
01:09:00Harbourstone suppliers.
01:09:01I brought those clients
01:09:03to Harbourstone.
01:09:08Chloe's expedited hiring
01:09:10approval required
01:09:11two signatures.
01:09:12Derek's
01:09:13and
01:09:13yours, Mr. Hale.
01:09:16Internal audits
01:09:17found roughly $18,000
01:09:19in claims Derek submitted
01:09:21for outside interpreting services.
01:09:24Several payments
01:09:25went to Chloe's
01:09:26personal account.
01:09:28There are no service agreements
01:09:29or delivery records.
01:09:31These are falsified
01:09:33expense claims.
01:09:38Chloe left earlier today.
01:09:39Let's call her and ask.
01:09:44Chloe, did you ever provide
01:09:46outside interpreting
01:09:47or paid training services
01:09:48for Harbourstone?
01:09:49No.
01:09:50I never signed a contract
01:09:51or provided those services.
01:09:52They were training expenses.
01:09:53There are no training records.
01:09:54Derek,
01:09:55you're suspended immediately.
01:09:57Harbourstone will terminate
01:09:58your employment,
01:09:58recover the funds,
01:09:59and refer the evidence
01:10:00to law enforcement.
01:10:04You won.
01:10:06I never competed with you.
01:10:07Everything I've done
01:10:08can survive an investigation.
01:10:10Yours can't.
01:10:11Corporate legal
01:10:12has placed you
01:10:13on administrative leave.
01:10:15Your approval authority
01:10:16is suspended
01:10:17pending investigation.
01:10:18Center director.
01:10:20$180,000 a year
01:10:21plus bonuses.
01:10:22The highest offer
01:10:23Harbourstone can make.
01:10:26for six years,
01:10:27I waited for this company
01:10:28to give me a seat
01:10:29at the table.
01:10:30Now I know
01:10:30I can build my own table.
01:10:33I can't keep you here.
01:10:35MBT souhaite
01:10:36qu'on fait à Lingua Bros,
01:10:37ses besoins linguistiques
01:10:38à l'on-père.
01:10:39Le contrat doit être reclus
01:10:40avec mon reprise,
01:10:42pas avec moi,
01:10:42à titre personnel.
01:10:43MBT ne cherche pas
01:10:44à vous envahir personnellement.
01:10:45C'est avec votre
01:10:46reprise
01:10:47que nous voulons travailler.
01:10:49I earned
01:10:50ATA certification
01:10:51in French
01:10:52to English translation.
01:10:53I'd like to apply.
01:10:55No favors,
01:10:56no shortcuts,
01:10:57but you'll get
01:10:58a fair shot.
01:11:01This time,
01:11:02no one else
01:11:03gets to decide
01:11:03what I'm worth.
01:11:04to English translation.
