00:00:14Get away!
00:00:15I'm not a beggar! I need to see Victor Romano!
00:00:18Von Vic doesn't see Gutter Boys! Get out!
00:00:21Let him go. Boy, what do you want with me?
00:00:25Mr. Romano, let me work for you!
00:00:27Work for me? You even know what I do?
00:00:30Everybody knows that Vegas is under your control.
00:00:32Then you should know this town grinds grown men to death.
00:00:34Boys belong in school, not in my business.
00:00:36I have no school, and no homes dying in a motel room, and I can't pay a doctor.
00:00:40I need money, and I need to stop letting people walk all over me.
00:00:47Pawn this. Save your mother, and get yourself in school.
00:00:50Someday, come back as a man I can hire, and not a boy Vegas can break.
00:00:55Mr. Romano...
00:00:55Vegas is changing. Muscle won't protect you forever. Sharp mind might.
00:00:59Remember my name, Victor Romano.
00:01:10Victor Romano. Federal search warrant. Nobody moves.
00:01:14What the hell is this?
00:01:15Search this room. Search the bar. Tear the walls open if you have to.
00:01:27Jesus. It's an armor.
00:01:29Found in your private lounge.
00:01:31That's impossible.
00:01:34I don't touch guns in my turf.
00:01:36Golden Crown is under investigation for illegal arms trafficking, money laundering, and federal conspiracy.
00:01:42Come with this place from scratch, but I never cross that line.
00:01:45I don't touch guns.
00:01:47Somebody planted this.
00:01:49Don. Don, help me. I didn't mean for it to go this far.
00:01:52It was you?
00:01:53How many times did I tell you? No weapons. No trafficking. Ever.
00:01:59I screwed up. I swear, I was just moving a shipment. They said it was casino hardware. I didn't know
00:02:04it was military-
00:02:05My mistake.
00:02:07I should have kept my own turf clean. Listen to me.
00:02:10In my private vault at Nevada State Bank, I have ten sealed cases.
00:02:13Cash, gold, bear bonds, and Sophia's trust papers. That's my daughter's future.
00:02:19The world isn't kind to a young girl on her own.
00:02:22Guard that vault until I come back.
00:02:24I will, boss. I swear on my life.
00:02:26This is my casino, my office, my responsibility. Put it on me.
00:02:31Don! Don! Vic!
00:02:36You can try, you can try.
00:02:38Dad! Dad, what's happening?
00:02:43This is one million dollars for Sophia's wedding and living expenses.
00:02:47If you made my daughter cry, the first thing I do when I get out is come for your life.
00:02:50Understand?
00:02:51Yes, sir. I understand.
00:02:54Dad! Dad!
00:02:58Dad!
00:03:08Smell that? Freedom. And cash.
00:03:12Don Vic, outside is still your kingdom.
00:03:14What do you know? Ten years ago, this man owned half of downtown Vegas.
00:03:17When his people show up, you'll see a parade.
00:03:20Mr. Romano, when you take back the Golden Crown, don't forget your brother's inside.
00:03:24I just want a quiet meal and see my daughter.
00:03:26Quiet? Look at that. Your welcome party's coming.
00:03:34Tony, you remember me.
00:03:37Back off, old man. You're blocking Mr. Vega.
00:03:44Mr. Vega!
00:03:46Well, well. Don Vic Romano. Fresh out of prison, no one got you new clothes?
00:03:50These aren't your guys? Don Vic? That name went out ten years ago. Golden Crown belongs to Tony Bellelli now.
00:03:57So he's just an old man with stories. What a waste of breath.
00:04:00Mr. Vega! We were in the same cell block. Let me stick by your side. I would do anything for
00:04:04you!
00:04:07Wealth awaits you. Come in. Come in.
00:04:10People forget. I get it. But Tony, what I gave you must give it back.
00:04:14First, Sofia's trust. Then my daughter. Ten years, my friend.
00:04:21Mr. Romano. Ten years. Do you still remember that boy?
00:04:27Mr. Blackwood. Victor Romano was released this morning.
00:04:30What? He got out early? Why am I hearing this now?
00:04:33Get the cars. I'm picking him up myself.
00:04:35Sir, he has already left the prison. Our team missed him.
00:04:40Golden Crown. If he gets out of the prison today, he'll go back there.
00:04:51Ten years. This place still smells like cigars and money.
00:04:56Don Vic, you should have called ahead. I would have sent the limo and rolled out a parade.
00:05:02Are you blind? This is my old Don. Show some respect.
00:05:06Don Vic.
00:05:08Tony, I'm here for what I left with you.
00:05:10This isn't a place to talk. Let's go upstairs, like a family.
00:05:18Look at this chair, Don. I have kept your throne for ten years. Take a seat. Feel yourself again.
00:05:24My back isn't what it used to be. You've been running the place for ten years. Sit where you want.
00:05:30That's why I love you, Don. Always generous. Every day you were inside, we thought about you.
00:05:36Tony, I need the vault. Sofia's trust. The ten sealed cases I left with you before they took me.
00:05:42Vault? What vault?
00:05:43The private vault. Cash, gold, bearer bonds, the trust papers. That's my daughter's future.
00:05:49Money?
00:05:50Don, ten years is too long. Vegas crashed, bounced back and crashed again. I tried to grow it for you.
00:05:55Casino expansion, sports books, crypto. But all the money lost.
00:05:59All of it? Nothing left?
00:06:01What's that look? You think I'd take your money?
00:06:05That money was for Sofia.
00:06:09Forget it for now. I just got out. I need work. Anything steady.
00:06:13Work? Don, this whole place exists because of you. You are the one who still call the shots.
00:06:19No. I need quiet. I want a job, food, and a place to stand.
00:06:23Anything for you.
00:06:25Find Don Vic a job.
00:06:27Yes, Mr. Bellini.
00:06:29The casino floor could use an old man to hold cigar trays for the VIPs.
00:06:34Let Victor Romano serve others in the house he built.
00:06:38That's funny.
00:06:44Mr. Blackwood.
00:06:47Mr. Blackwood, everything is ready.
00:06:50Let's roll.
00:06:53Mr. Romano, we're gonna meet again after ten years.
00:06:56Will you remember the blooded boy?
00:07:00Mr. Bellini says there are no executive chairs left.
00:07:03The best job we can offer is a weight faff in the cigar lounge.
00:07:05You want me to hold ashtrays?
00:07:07I call you Don out of respect. Don't let it go to your head.
00:07:11If you want a paycheck, put it on.
00:07:13Or go back to prison, where they feed you for free.
00:07:18I'll take it.
00:07:22There we go. Fits you perfectly.
00:07:27Look at you in this way. You're finally of some use, Don.
00:07:30Look at him. Victor Romano, the man who built the golden crown.
00:07:33Carrying my cigar ad.
00:07:37Mr. Cross, need the VIP room?
00:07:39We said Don Vic got out. Where is he?
00:07:41Hank used to be Victor's loyal dog.
00:07:44Don't tell me he's still loyal.
00:07:46Hank!
00:07:47You said Don Victor was here. Where is he?
00:07:49Hank.
00:07:52Don Vic!
00:07:53You are actually here!
00:07:55What the hell is this?
00:07:57You made Don Vic carry your ash?
00:08:01Hank, I was just joking.
00:08:02Let it go, Hank.
00:08:05You hear that?
00:08:06Don Vic still protects you.
00:08:08Back in the day, you would have been dead meat.
00:08:10Don't take it to heart, Don.
00:08:12Ten years is too long.
00:08:14These boys don't know the old rules.
00:08:19But honestly, you've got steady hands.
00:08:22Since you're already serving.
00:08:25Hank, what are you saying?
00:08:27Don't call him Hank!
00:08:28You should call him Mr. Cross!
00:08:30Come on, Don. Keep it steady.
00:08:34Don't freeze up!
00:08:35Mr. Cross gave you an order.
00:08:38Go ahead.
00:08:44You...
00:08:45Impressive.
00:08:47Truly impressive.
00:08:48Better service than the new boys.
00:08:50Told ya!
00:08:51Ton Vic handles trays better than he handled business.
00:08:54Perfect. I'm satisfied.
00:08:55Funny.
00:08:56Never knew Don had such a gift for waiting on people.
00:08:58Natural gift.
00:08:58Mr. Romano, people fight to work in the Golden Crown.
00:09:01We saved you a spot.
00:09:02That's fraternity, right?
00:09:09Mr. Blackwood.
00:09:10Our eyes in the Golden Crown sent word that Tony Bellaney and Hank Cross
00:09:13are humiliating Mr. Romano on the casino floor.
00:09:19Those bastards floor it.
00:09:20Get me there as fast as possible or you'll never drive for me again.
00:09:23Yes, sir.
00:09:27Hold on, Mr. Romano.
00:09:29Today...
00:09:33I have to say you've got incredible patience.
00:09:36Perfect servant.
00:09:37Cheap and reliable.
00:09:39Tip.
00:09:40Turn around and say thank you.
00:09:44Who cleaned this floor?
00:09:46Looks like a gutter.
00:09:47Don Vic, since you're so skilled at carrying trays, get on your knees and wipe it up with your jacket.
00:09:52Do it!
00:09:53Mr. Cross told you to clean!
00:09:58Are you tired?
00:09:59Are your hands shaking?
00:10:00Shall we loosen your stiff limbs for you?
00:10:02Tony Bellina!
00:10:03Hank Cross!
00:10:04Look me in the eye and tell me this is what I deserve!
00:10:08I pulled you off the street.
00:10:10I fed you.
00:10:11I gave you names, suits, and power.
00:10:14Without me, you'd still be fighting stray dogs for scraps.
00:10:17That was then.
00:10:18Back then, you had a name.
00:10:20Now I give you work.
00:10:23That makes you my dog.
00:10:24Here's for you.
00:10:25I walked into federal prison so you could stay free and this is what you pay me back?
00:10:30Yeah.
00:10:31You did ten years for me.
00:10:33So what?
00:10:33That's on you.
00:10:34Who believes in fraternity?
00:10:35Back then we said family first.
00:10:37Now it's money first.
00:10:38Who has the cash is the Don.
00:10:40I didn't come back for your chair.
00:10:42I don't want this casino.
00:10:45I just want Sofia's trust.
00:10:46Give me my daughter's money.
00:10:48Give it back and I'll leave Vegas tonight.
00:10:49I swear.
00:10:51You hear that?
00:10:53Don Vint is begging me!
00:10:54Then beg properly.
00:10:56On your knees.
00:10:57Let everyone hear it.
00:11:01Like a broken dog!
00:11:04Kneeling is a start.
00:11:05That doesn't strike me as sincere.
00:11:07What are you waiting for?
00:11:08DeVito is old.
00:11:09Help him show some respect.
00:11:12Now, give me Sofia's trust.
00:11:15He actually believed it!
00:11:16Don, you're cracking me up!
00:11:19With that ruined life of yours, what makes you think you can ask me for anything?
00:11:23Here's your daughter's inheritance.
00:11:25Buy yourself a cheap coffee.
00:11:26Tony is generous.
00:11:27You'd have to carry a lot of ashtrays to make that much.
00:11:29Pick it up and thank him.
00:11:32You are a monster!
00:11:33Give it back!
00:11:34Give my daughter's money back!
00:11:39Fine.
00:11:40You want the truth?
00:11:41The vault was empty years ago.
00:11:43I turned your gold into my casino, my cars, and my life.
00:11:49Those guns ten years ago, I put them in the lounge.
00:11:51I called the feds.
00:11:53I knew you'd take the fall because you were stupid enough to protect me.
00:11:58Why?
00:11:59I thought of you as one of my own.
00:12:01I trusted you with my life.
00:12:06Why?
00:12:07Because fraternity is what weak men sell when they've got nothing else!
00:12:11If you hadn't gone inside, how would Tony's name ever go up on the golden crown?
00:12:18I let you walk out of prison alive.
00:12:20That's mercy.
00:12:21Break his hands and knees.
00:12:22Dump him into the desert.
00:12:24I don't want blood on my casino floor.
00:12:26Yes, Mr. Bellini.
00:12:26Let's go!
00:12:29Let's go!
00:12:30Let's go!
00:12:32Let's go!
00:12:33Let's go!
00:12:49Stop!
00:12:51Back off, you bastards!
00:12:53If anyone lays another finger on him, I swear I'll send every last one of you straight to hell!
00:13:01Who are you to barge into my casino?
00:13:04Mr. Romano.
00:13:06I'm late.
00:13:07But I'm here now.
00:13:08Boy, don't get involved.
00:13:09I'm fine.
00:13:10Who are you?
00:13:11Go back quickly.
00:13:12You don't remember me?
00:13:13Ten years ago, outside this casino, a street boy got beaten for asking to see you.
00:13:18His mother was dying.
00:13:20You gave him a gold Rolex.
00:13:25That watch saved my mother.
00:13:29The money left bought my first laptop, my first license, and my first deal.
00:13:34Ten years later, Blackwood Capital owns half the Vegas Strip.
00:13:38Mr. Romano, I kept my promise.
00:13:40I came back to pay you back.
00:13:42This is beyond laughable.
00:13:43I thought someone showed up, but it's just a poor beggar.
00:13:46Little beggar.
00:13:47You think a few rented black cars can scare me?
00:13:50You made my savior, Neil, today.
00:13:52You'll learn how begging feels.
00:13:54Let's see who begs!
00:13:57Adrian, listen to me.
00:13:59These men don't play fair.
00:14:00Don't throw your life away for an old man.
00:14:03Mr. Romano, men like them should have been dead.
00:14:07They just haven't read their own obituaries yet.
00:14:09Your old man is still protecting you.
00:14:11How sweet.
00:14:13You bring a few bodyguards thinking you can beat Tony Bellini?
00:14:17Do you even know who backs me in this town?
00:14:19Blackwood Capital.
00:14:21If you go against me, you're going against the money that runs Vegas.
00:14:25Blackwood Capital.
00:14:26I forgot.
00:14:26Don Vid just crawled out of a federal cave.
00:14:29He doesn't know what real power looks like.
00:14:30Colin Reeves.
00:14:31Blackwood's Vegas president is my brother.
00:14:33I just need one call, and your people would disappear from every casino, bank, and hotel in Nevada.
00:14:39Colin Reeves?
00:14:41Did he fall this far?
00:14:43Trading under my name with rats?
00:14:47You have no right to say Mr. Reason's name like that.
00:14:50He is Blackwood in Vegas.
00:14:52You're just a punk in borrowed suits.
00:14:56Good.
00:14:57Stay right there.
00:14:58I'll call Colin and let him deal with you himself.
00:15:01Adrian, go.
00:15:03You can't fight against Blackwood Capital.
00:15:05Mr. Romano, no matter what happens,
00:15:08I've got your back.
00:15:10And I want to see how brave Colin Reeves is.
00:15:12How dare he use my company's name to bully my savior.
00:15:17Colin will be here in a three-
00:15:18Last chance, boy.
00:15:19Kneel and lick my shoes.
00:15:21I may spare you from being torn to pieces.
00:15:26You hear him?
00:15:27This boy thinks he's starring in a movie.
00:15:32Blackwood Capital is God in Vegas.
00:15:34Crushing you is easier than stepping on a roach.
00:15:38Amazing.
00:15:39A regional employee actually crowned himself a king.
00:15:43Notify HR and legal.
00:15:45Terminate Colin Reeves immediately.
00:15:47Freeze his company cards.
00:15:48Provoke his authority and blacklist him from every and Blackwood property.
00:15:56Done, Mr. Blackwood.
00:15:58The order is in force.
00:16:00He says he fired Colin?
00:16:02Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:04The owner of Blackwood?
00:16:05Miss, don't let him do this.
00:16:08Blackwood can destroy a person.
00:16:11Mr. Romano,
00:16:14Colin isn't Blackwood.
00:16:15He's nothing.
00:16:21Who said I don't represent Blackwood?
00:16:24Step forward.
00:16:26Colin!
00:16:28You finally showed up!
00:16:29This punk insulted you, insulted Blackwood and said he had fired you.
00:16:34You should make him disappear.
00:16:37Mr. Reeves, listen to me.
00:16:40This was my idea.
00:16:42The boy has nothing to do with it.
00:16:43In Vegas, people who insult me usually don't get to finish their words.
00:16:47Let me see who the brave person is.
00:16:50Me.
00:16:53Mr. Blackwood.
00:16:54Colin, that's him. He challenged Blackwood. Finish him!
00:16:57Yeah! Crush him, Colin!
00:17:00Mr. Blackwood!
00:17:01Colin?
00:17:02What's wrong? Get up and deal with him!
00:17:03Mr. Blackwood, why are you here in Vegas yourself?
00:17:06I heard my regional president had become God in Vegas.
00:17:08I came to meet God.
00:17:09No, sir! Never! They are lying! Please let me explain!
00:17:11Why are you just the ten years ago?!
00:17:13Shut your mouth!
00:17:14Are you trying to kill me?!
00:17:17Mr. Blackwood, I didn't know!
00:17:18I swear I didn't know you were here!
00:17:20Please, spare me this once for these years I've put into this company!
00:17:24I heard you came here to deal with me.
00:17:27It was...
00:17:28Sir, I... I didn't...
00:17:30Colin, what are you doing?
00:17:31We've paid you for years!
00:17:32You said Blackwood had our back!
00:17:34Don't drag me down with you!
00:17:35Open your eyes!
00:17:36This is Adrian Blackwood, founder and owner of Blackwood Capital!
00:17:40He owns Blackwood?
00:17:41Mr. Blackwood!
00:17:43I didn't know! I was blind!
00:17:45Please spare us!
00:17:46We are stupid! We are nothing!
00:17:48Spare us, please!
00:17:49The men who bite the hand that fed them don't deserve to live.
00:17:52Don Vic, save us!
00:17:54Don Vic, I'm sorry, I swear!
00:17:55For old times' sake, please!
00:17:57We are your brothers!
00:17:58Everyone in Vegas knows you value fraternity!
00:18:01Fraternity?
00:18:03Bread fridge?
00:18:04You told me only a fool believes in fraternity!
00:18:06Remember?
00:18:07I gave ten years of my life for that word.
00:18:09And you two taught me the cruelest lesson of my life!
00:18:12Stop it!
00:18:13Please!
00:18:14Mr. Romano, do we let them walk?
00:18:16I don't want to touch this filth anymore.
00:18:19It's done!
00:18:20Fifty million!
00:18:21Cashier's check!
00:18:22Everything I have!
00:18:23Take it, please!
00:18:24Just let me leave!
00:18:25Fifty million?
00:18:26You think he's a street beggar?
00:18:28For ten years, you lived in his casino, stole Sofia's trust and fed yourself with his name.
00:18:33You can keep your lives, but everything you had should come back with interest.
00:18:40Everything?
00:18:42Do you have a problem?
00:18:43No!
00:18:45No problem!
00:18:46I'll return it all!
00:18:47Listen carefully.
00:18:49By Sunset Amaro, Golden Crown Casino, Romano Holdings, every bar, parking lot, VIP lounge, shell company, and license under Tony
00:18:55Balacco's control goes back to Victor Romano.
00:19:01As for these two, if I hear you're going after him again, you're a dead man.
00:19:08Adrian, thank you.
00:19:10Don't thank me, Mr. Romano.
00:19:12Without your watch, I would have died outside this casino.
00:19:14Everything I have started with you.
00:19:17Now I am confident when I see Sofia.
00:19:21Colin Reeves, you are permanently teminated from Blackwood Capital.
00:19:25Legal will be in touch with you.
00:19:26Mr. Blackwood, I was stupid.
00:19:28One more chance, please.
00:19:30Keep eyes on Baletti and Cross.
00:19:32Help Mr. Romano transfer every asset.
00:19:34Yes, sir.
00:19:36Blackwood has casinos, hotels, and financing deals all over Nevada.
00:19:40With just one word from you, Romano Hendings would become the hottest name in Vegas again.
00:19:46Ten years inside, and the world stepped forward.
00:19:49I'm old, Adrian. I don't want a throne.
00:19:52Then what do you want?
00:19:55My daughter, the day they took me, she was in a wedding dress.
00:20:00I missed her whole life.
00:20:01Has Ms. Romano been alright?
00:20:04She wrote me every month.
00:20:07Said Peter was hard working.
00:20:09Said his mother talked too much, but had a good heart.
00:20:13I think, I think she was okay.
00:20:18Sofia! Are you deaf? I'm home! My shoes! Now!
00:20:22Your father was a criminal. You should be grateful this family still lets you scrub floors.
00:20:33Sofia! Are you deaf? I've been home for five minutes. Hang up my coat and clean my boots.
00:20:40Mom, I'm cleaning the carpet. My hands are covered with clean-
00:20:43Save your excuses! If dinner is one minute late, I'll dump the whole pot over your head!
00:20:58Your father's a convicted federal felon. We gave you a roof over your head.
00:21:02You should be down on your knees, thanking God!
00:21:14Mr. Romano, from the way you tell it, Peter must have taken good care of Sofia all these years.
00:21:18I chose Peter myself.
00:21:20He seemed honest, devoted to family, and respectful to his mother.
00:21:24That's why I trusted him with Sofia.
00:21:27I heard he'd fallen on hard times these years.
00:21:30I came back with enough money to help him start over.
00:21:34Blackwood Hospitality has an opening for a hotel operations manager here in Vegas.
00:21:38Have HR prepare a conditional offer letter for Peter through the standard process.
00:21:42Background check. Legal review. Final approval. No exceptions.
00:21:47Understood.
00:21:49Adrian, I know I'm asking a lot.
00:21:51I owe my life to that gold watch. Your family is my family.
00:21:59All right. Thank you.
00:22:13Honey, we've got the money we needed. This is the best news ever.
00:22:18Peter, you're hurting me.
00:22:21What good news?
00:22:22Vinny Vega made me an offer.
00:22:24If you sign the papers and join his paid adult streaming platform, he'll wipe out the $300,000 I owe
00:22:30him from gambling.
00:22:31He'll even give me another 50 grand.
00:22:33You want me to do that adult live streams?
00:22:35Peter, I'm your wife. You're disgusting.
00:22:41Wife? Can a wife pay off my debts?
00:22:43I married you because your father had money.
00:22:47Who would have thought the old bastard went away for 10 years and left me with nothing?
00:22:52You're lying!
00:22:53My father gave you a million dollars before they took him away.
00:22:57That was for our wedding and living expenses.
00:22:59You blew every cent on gambling!
00:23:01Shut up! That money is long gone.
00:23:03You're signing today whether you like it or not!
00:23:09What's the big deal? It's just showing a little skin on camera.
00:23:12You're turning down hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:23:15Stop acting like you're some kind of saint.
00:23:17You married into the Miller family.
00:23:19It's your job to help your husband out.
00:23:22You're insane.
00:23:24Both of you are insane.
00:23:30We're finally here.
00:23:31Adrian, wait here for a moment.
00:23:33I want to see her as a father first.
00:23:34I'll bring you in afterward.
00:23:35Fine.
00:23:36Still fighting back? Peter, beat her into submission!
00:23:39A live stream isn't going to kill you!
00:23:41If you tell me no again, I'll make sure you can't get back up today!
00:23:55Sofia.
00:23:58Who's there? Victor? Why did you come out?
00:24:01Where's Sofia? Where is my daughter?
00:24:03Sheeter, go out shopping! What are you doing here?
00:24:04You just got out of federal prison. Leave. Now. Don't bring your trouble here.
00:24:09You're lying. I heard Sofia's crying.
00:24:15Whose blood is this?
00:24:16It's tomato sauce. You've got it wrong!
00:24:18Where is my daughter?!
00:24:23Mr. Romano, it sounds like it's coming from inside the house.
00:24:29Are you out of your mind?
00:24:31Peter and Sofia with a private matter between husband and wife.
00:24:34Don't you have any shame barging in as her father?
00:24:40Sofia! Dad's here!
00:24:41Peter! Talk to me! Did Peter hurt you?!
00:24:43Your daughter isn't here! Get out!
00:24:46You're mistaken! There is nobody in there!
00:24:51I heard it too. She's in there.
00:24:57Dad, I'm fine. Please go.
00:24:59Sofia?
00:25:01Dad's here. I'm taking you home right now.
00:25:04I don't want to see you. I don't want to see you at all!
00:25:07You heard her. She doesn't want to see you.
00:25:11Sofia, I'm sorry.
00:25:13Just let me see you. Please.
00:25:16Do you know what I've been through these past ten years?
00:25:19Everyone called me the daughter of a federal felon.
00:25:21I couldn't even hold my head up!
00:25:22Go away! Stop making me feel more ashamed!
00:25:27How can this be?
00:25:28That's not what your letters say.
00:25:30We did ten years behind bars.
00:25:31We had to live with the gossip and the humiliation.
00:25:33Why wouldn't she hate you?
00:25:34It is my fault. All of it.
00:25:37Sofia, I won't force you.
00:25:38I'm leaving now.
00:25:44It's all my fault.
00:25:46I made Sofia live with the shame of being a felon's daughter for ten years.
00:25:50Mr. Romano, don't blame yourself just yet.
00:25:53Something's wrong in the house.
00:25:54Every letter she wrote said she missed you.
00:25:56Now you're standing outside and she won't even open the door.
00:25:59That doesn't look like hatred.
00:26:00It sounds like fear.
00:26:02You think someone threatened her?
00:26:03A lie can't survive a second look. We're going back.
00:26:07Let's go.
00:26:13You almost got me killed!
00:26:15That old bastard actually came back!
00:26:18Clean the blood off her face.
00:26:19Don't let Vinny lose his appetite.
00:26:22Peter, I've spent ten years waiting on your mother and paying off your gambling debts.
00:26:27What did I ever do to deserve this?
00:26:28Save your moral lecture.
00:26:29Besides your looks and your body, what else do you have to offer?
00:26:33Mr. Vega? You're here already?
00:26:35I haven't cleaned her up yet.
00:26:43Peter, do you know how much that face is worth?
00:26:47My subscribers won't pay for bruises.
00:26:49She wouldn't behave, so I had to teach her some manners.
00:26:51A little concealer and nobody will ever know.
00:26:53I've been waiting a long time for this day.
00:26:56Your husband owes me 300 grand.
00:26:58Today, you'll be paying his debt.
00:27:00I'll work. I'll find a way to pay you back. Please, let me go!
00:27:05I don't want her money today.
00:27:07I want you making money for me in front of the camera.
00:27:13Get the paperwork.
00:27:15If she won't sign, force her hand and sign it for her.
00:27:22Before we start filming, I'm going to inspect the merchandise myself.
00:27:26Get your hands off me, sick bastard!
00:27:28My father is Victor Romano!
00:27:31Who did you just say?
00:27:32Our father really is Victor Romano.
00:27:35The old man was just outside.
00:27:37You idiot! Why didn't you tell me sooner?
00:27:40You're afraid of that washed up old man?
00:27:45Afraid? I'm excited.
00:27:54Ten years ago, Victor had me thrown out of the Golden Crown.
00:27:57His security pinned me down at the entrance and made me scrub up the drink I'd spilled with my own
00:28:02hands!
00:28:03That day, I swore I didn't take him to that humiliation!
00:28:07Turn on every camera!
00:28:09Tonight's star is the daughter of the former owner of the Golden Crown!
00:28:16Let go of me!
00:28:17Your father can't even save himself now.
00:28:20Let's see who's gonna save you.
00:28:22She's too damn stubborn.
00:28:23I brought something that'll keep her from fighting back.
00:28:27You're the real husband.
00:28:29You sick bastards! I'll haunt every one of you!
00:28:31This is your fault!
00:28:32Your father couldn't give me the life I wanted, so now I'm taking it out on you!
00:28:37Sophia!
00:28:38What the hell are they doing back?
00:28:40Vinny, take him out!
00:28:41Dad, help me!
00:28:41Peter beats me every day!
00:28:43He drugged me and he was gonna sell me to Vinny!
00:28:45You bastard!
00:28:46I trusted you with my daughter and this is how you treated her?!
00:28:48I was wrong!
00:28:49Even if it cost me my life, I'll make you pay for the past ten years.
00:28:53Victor, you still think you're the king ten years ago?
00:28:55You're just an old dog fresh out of prison.
00:28:57One snap of my fingers and you'll die in this dump.
00:29:02Come on, bite me!
00:29:03I thought you were such a big shot!
00:29:07Sophia, don't be afraid. Dad's here.
00:29:09What did they give you?
00:29:10Just something to make her more compliant.
00:29:13Pretty soon she'll be begging for a man's touch.
00:29:15You sick bastard!
00:29:17Mr. Romano, get Sophia out of here.
00:29:20Leave the rest to me.
00:29:21You think you're leaving?
00:29:23This isn't a hotel lobby.
00:29:24Get him!
00:29:26You really want to compare numbers with me?
00:29:34The one who wants your life.
00:29:37I didn't know it was you!
00:29:39I made stupid mistakes!
00:29:40Do whatever you want of me!
00:29:40Just don't ruin me!
00:29:41You weakling picking on others like that,
00:29:43killing you would be a waste of my hands.
00:29:44Call the cops.
00:29:45Take them to the police station.
00:29:47Victor, I was wrong!
00:29:48I swear I'll never do it again!
00:29:49Please forgive me!
00:29:51You tortured my daughter.
00:29:52And you still have the nerve to call my name?
00:29:54He forced me!
00:29:54He rigged the games!
00:29:55And the livestream was his idea!
00:29:57Victor!
00:29:57We're family!
00:29:59You can't destroy Peter over someone else!
00:30:06I don't want to see them anymore.
00:30:08I don't want to see them anymore.
00:30:09The police are here.
00:30:10Turn over the filming equipment, drug bottles, consent forms, and all the surveillance footage
00:30:15in the house.
00:30:18And him.
00:30:19Don't forget him.
00:30:22Victor!
00:30:22Victor!
00:30:23I'm your son-in-law!
00:30:24You have no right to make decision for him!
00:30:30Victor, please!
00:30:33Victor, I'm your son-in-law.
00:30:35If you send me to jail, Sofia will be a divorced woman.
00:30:38Even if I was wrong for Sofia's sake, please give me one more chance.
00:30:43My son-in-law?
00:30:47Ten years ago, I thought you were an honest, dependable man.
00:30:50I believed you would protect Sofia while I was gone.
00:30:54I never imagined the man I chose for my daughter would turn out to be a monster in human skin.
00:30:59One that preys on his own family!
00:31:02I chose the wrong man.
00:31:04I brought my own daughter into hell with my own hands.
00:31:07Victor, I know I was wrong.
00:31:09Give me one chance.
00:31:10I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to Sofia.
00:31:12Sofia, we're married.
00:31:12Please, put in a good word for me.
00:31:14I promise I'll change.
00:31:15Forgive you?
00:31:17When you drugged me, forced me on camera, and handed me over to Vinny,
00:31:21did you remember we were married?
00:31:23Peter, I'd rather be alone for the rest of my life than go back to you.
00:31:33Tony! Help me! They're trying to kill me!
00:31:36Victor just got back, and he's already trying to take everything I've built over the last ten years.
00:31:41And, Peter, that useless idiot still make things worse.
00:31:43Tony, Blackwood's people are still in Vegas. Going over there now is asking to die.
00:31:52Adrian can't be glued to that old man 24 hours a day.
00:31:56As long as he isn't there in person, there aren't many people in Vegas who would dare touch me.
00:32:04Tony, the cops have been called. If you don't show up right now, I'll tell them everything I've done for
00:32:08you over the years.
00:32:09Every dirty job!
00:32:12That stupid bastard.
00:32:13Go! We're going to Peter's.
00:32:16You're gonna regret this, Adrian!
00:32:19Tony Bellini's backing me.
00:32:20When he gets here, I'll make you begging me to drop the charges!
00:32:24Fine. I'll wait right here.
00:32:31Who dares mess with my Tony Bellini's?
00:32:34I did. Got a problem with that?
00:32:35Tony! Finally! This bastard has absolutely no respect for you!
00:32:38Let me see who thinks he can...
00:32:40Mr. Blackwood.
00:32:42Bellini, I warned you. Next time I won't show you any mercy.
00:32:47Mr. Blackwood, I didn't know you were here! I'm leaving now! I'll disappear!
00:33:02Tony! You've got this wrong! Victor's a washed-up ex-con, and this punk's bluffing!
00:33:08Shut up, you moron! He's the founder of Blackwood Capital! Are you trying to get us all killed?!
00:33:13Mr. Romano, take Sofia to the hospital. Leave the rest to the police and legal.
00:33:18Adrian, thank you.
00:33:20She's your daughter.
00:33:22So she is also my family.
00:33:27Tony and Hank are being charged with evidence tampering,
00:33:30violating, investigated restrictions, and witness treatment.
00:33:35The full case file has already been forwarded to the prosecutor.
00:33:40Mr. Blackwood, give me one more chance!
00:33:43You used every chance you had.
00:33:51Vinny and the filming crew are in custody.
00:33:54Tony and Hank are now being held by the prosecutor's office.
00:33:56Sofia isn't in any condition to give an official statement yet.
00:33:59Peter and Margaret were released on bail under electronic monitoring after posting a substantial bond.
00:34:04Have legal, keep a close eye on them. If they screw up again, they're not walking out of jail.
00:34:08No!
00:34:22Dad, I'm much better. Adrian brought in the best medical team. It would be hard not to recover.
00:34:29Adrian, this time, I truly owe you.
00:34:33Mr. Romano, please don't say that. I owe you my life.
00:34:37Without the gold watch you gave me back then, there'd be no Adrian Blackwood today.
00:34:41I've never forgotten what you did for me.
00:34:45You earned everything on your own you have.
00:34:48Seeing how far you've come, I'd say I was right to put my faith in you.
00:34:53Seeing the man you became tells me I wasn't wrong about you.
00:34:56Since we're family, there's something I'd like to discuss with you.
00:35:01Go ahead.
00:35:03Blackwood Capital is prepared to invest one billion dollars in Ramon O'Hundersings.
00:35:08We'll rebuild the Golden Crown's licensing, hotel operations, and legitimate entertainment business.
00:35:13Ramon O'Hundersings will become one of Blackwood's most important partners in Nevada.
00:35:20With an offer like that, refusing would be false modesty.
00:35:23If you're willing to cooperate with me, I have no reason to refuse.
00:35:27But I've no intention to research on.
00:35:29But I don't intend to sit at the head of a billion dollar company.
00:35:33I'm putting the controlling interest in Romano Holdings into a family trust.
00:35:37With Sophia as chairwoman.
00:35:38Dad, I can't. I've never run a company this big. I can't accept it.
00:35:43I failed you for ten years.
00:35:45I thought Peter would protect you, and I sent you into hell with my own hands.
00:35:51Romano Holdings was always meant to be yours.
00:35:54Dad, this isn't your fault. No one can see through every wolf wearing sheep's clothes.
00:35:58Blackwood will assign finance, legal, and hotel management teams to support you.
00:36:01You won't have to carry all this alone.
00:36:03Then it's settled. In tomorrow's relaunch gala, I'll officially hand Romano Pedershams to you.
00:36:07Thank you, Dad.
00:36:16Mr. Peter Miller, congratulations. You've been selected as the operations manager at Blackwood Hospitality.
00:36:22Please note that this is a conditional offer. Pending a successful background check, legal clearance, and final executive approval.
00:36:27Blackwood? Hotel operations manager?
00:36:34I knew it. The chairman picked me himself. That bastard Adrian was just following orders.
00:36:41Victor, Sophia, you'll pay back everything you took from me a hundredfold.
00:36:59Thank you all for being here today. To everyone from Nevada's hotel, casino, real estate, and financial industries.
00:37:06I didn't return to build the old crime empire. I returned to make sure Romano Holdings stands proudly in the
00:37:13light.
00:37:14Ladies and gentlemen, effective today, I appoint my daughter, Sophia Romano, as chairwoman of Romano Holdings.
00:37:22The Golden Crown Casino, hotels, bars, parking operations, and every legitimate asset owned by Romano Holdings will now be under
00:37:28her leadership.
00:37:35Ten years in federal prison, and he still took his company back. Victor didn't lose his bite. He came back
00:37:39even more dangerous.
00:37:47As long as the name Victor Romano is still here, the Golden Crown won't fall.
00:37:52I heard Blackwood Capital is about to sign a one-billion-baller partnership with Romano Holdings.
00:37:56Welcome home, Victor. A toast to Romano Holdings.
00:38:04Ms. Romano, congratulations. You're a remarkable leader. I hope we can count on your support for our family's upcoming hotel
00:38:11developments.
00:38:12Victor helped a lot of people when they were down in Vegas. Now it's time for us to return the
00:38:16favor.
00:38:19Thank you, everyone.
00:38:23Mr. Romano, is it true Blackwad is investing one billion dollars?
00:38:32Blackwood? A billion dollar investment? Victor, prison must have scrambled your brain.
00:38:37A corporate giant like Blackwood would ever partner with someone out of federal prison.
00:38:42You two pathetic fools actually think they're part of Vegas high society? The higher you climb, the harder you're gonna
00:38:48crash!
00:38:50Business event. Abusers and Lunaturks aren't welcome. Get out.
00:38:54You want me out? You couldn't give this family a heir and now you're in charge? There's nowhere in Vegas
00:38:59I can't go!
00:39:01This is Romano Holdings' event. Are you really trying to make a scene at the Golden Crown?
00:39:06Victor Romano? An old convict who's been out of the game for ten years, and you call him Mr. Romano?
00:39:11Security, throw them out!
00:39:13I'd like to see anyone try.
00:39:16Open your eyes. I'm the newly appointed hotel operations manager for Blackwood Hospitality in Las Vegas.
00:39:24I represent Blackwood. Touch me, and you're declaring war on Blackwood.
00:39:31He's Blackwood's new manager? Maybe there is some kind of misunderstanding. What exactly do you want?
00:39:37Easy. Transfer all the share of Romano Holdings into my name.
00:39:41Since we used to be family, I'm giving you a chance to walk away alive.
00:39:44Dream on.
00:39:46Romano Holdings belongs to Sofia. It will never fall into the hands of a trash like you.
00:39:51Wake up! I run Blackwood's hotel operations in Vegas now. With one phone call, you'll lose your financing, suppliers, and
00:39:56hotel contracts tomorrow.
00:39:58Sofia, it's time to settle with this bastard yourself.
00:40:04That slap is for the ten years you stole from me! As of today, I'm filing for divorce, a permanent
00:40:11protective order, and full criminal prosecution. You and I are finished.
00:40:15Miss Romano, you just slapped a Blackwood executive.
00:40:20Apologize to Manager Miller right now! If Blackwood comes after us, we're all screwed!
00:40:24He's just a vicious dog dressed in a suit.
00:40:27Bitch! Looks like I didn't beat you hard enough!
00:40:30Victor, I'm Blackwood's hotel operations manager now. With one phone call, I can make your newly recovered assets lose its
00:40:37business partners overnight!
00:40:38Manager Miller, please calm down. Don't let this washed-up father and daughter drag the rest of us into their
00:40:43mess.
00:40:43Mr. Romano, for the sake of everyone's business, you and Sofia should apologize to Manager Miller. Publicly.
00:40:49For ten years, he treated me like a punching bag! He drugged me and tried to force me into an
00:40:54illegal livestream, and now you want me to apologize to him?!
00:40:57Men drink, gamble, and sometimes lose their temper. That's just how men are. As his wife, shouldn't you be more
00:41:02understanding?
00:41:03Manager Miller is with Blackwood now. You should be grateful he's even giving you a chance. Consider yourself lucky.
00:41:09See? That's someone who knows better. Victor, times have changed. Now that you've crossed Blackwood, there's no reason for us
00:41:15to honor our old friendship anymore.
00:41:17Good. Now knee and lick my shoes clean. Maybe I'll let you keep doing business in Vegas.
00:41:25Who dare make my benefactor?
00:41:26Mr. Romano, Sofia, are you alright?
00:41:28Adrian, look after Sofia. I can handle this myself.
00:41:31I won't let you face them alone.
00:41:33Everybody look! That's the actor Victor hired to fake it!
00:41:36Adrian, are you seriously still playing this game? I'm Blackwood's manager now, and you still think you can act like
00:41:40you're the boss in front of me?
00:41:41Looks like you still haven't learned your lesson. Tony and Hank are already behind bars. Care to join them, Manager
00:41:46Miller?
00:41:47Victor, where did you find this actor? He's pretty convincing. You fooled me with your little stunt last time.
00:41:52But today, I've got Blackwood's official notice in my hands. Let's see how you talk your way out of this
00:41:56now.
00:41:58He's just a nobody dressed like he's rich.
00:42:02Victor, you hired an actor to pose as the owner of Blackwood just to get us to sign the contract?
00:42:08Don't tell me that billion dollar investment was a lie.
00:42:11I'm the executive Blackwood selected. Whether that investment happens is up to me.
00:42:16That sly old fox almost had me fooled.
00:42:18Thank to Miller exposed the scam in time. Stick with me, and you'll all get a piece of the Blackwood
00:42:23project.
00:42:24My company is terminating all gautiations with Ramon Holdings, effective immediately.
00:42:28From now on, anyone who keeps helping Victor is opposing Blackhill.
00:42:32You hear that? This is power.
00:42:35You've been acting pretty smug for a while.
00:42:38But did you ever think who actually made the system issue that notice?
00:42:42The chairman of Blackwood personally picked me. Jealous?
00:42:46Getting personally selected by Blackwood's chairman? Mr. Miller's going places.
00:42:52Victor's been using Blackwood's name to fool everyone.
00:42:55Now he's finally up against the real people in charge.
00:43:01I'll be a regional vice president soon. Victor, you and your daughter are finished!
00:43:07This show is over.
00:43:08Understood.
00:43:09Go ahead, keep pretending. Now get on your knees and polish my shoes with your tongues.
00:43:12Do a good enough job, and I might be generous enough to offer you a job as a janitor.
00:43:17Prison must have rotted Victor's mind.
00:43:19Instead of kissing up to Blackwood's manager, he's picking a fight with him.
00:43:25If I were him, I'd sacrifice my own daughter without thinking twice.
00:43:30We're talking about Blackwood Capital.
00:43:34Blackwood Capital's board-authorized team is present.
00:43:37The $1 billion strategic investment agreement, credit facilities, ownership restructuring documents,
00:43:42and the ceremonial Golden Crown partnership key are hereby delivered to Romano Holdings.
00:43:46Adrian, this is far too much. Compared to the life you saved me, it's all just numbers.
00:43:51Impossible! Those documents are for me! I'm Blackwood's manager!
00:43:55I sent them to the wrong person! I'm the one the chairman!
00:43:58Who do you think you are?
00:44:00Olivia, has HR pulled back the conditional job offer?
00:44:03The offer never became effective.
00:44:05Due to domestic violence allegations, gambling debt, and active criminal investigation and material misproncations,
00:44:10Blackwood Hospitality has permanently withdrawn Peter Miller's candidate.
00:44:13Fake! It's all fake!
00:44:15Victor, you must have spent a fortune hiring actors for this scam!
00:44:19Listen carefully. Mr. Romano saved Mr. Blackwood's life.
00:44:22Without that connection, you did never pass a background check.
00:44:25You wouldn't even qualify for a visitor badge at Blackwood Tower.
00:44:27The chairman hired me because of my talent!
00:44:30Don't believe him! Victor hired them to scam you into investing!
00:44:33Victor just got out of prison. How could he possibly know Blackwood's real owner?
00:44:36This is a little over the top.
00:44:37The one who revoked your job offer was the chairman of Blackwood. Me.
00:44:42You're the chairman? Then why are you standing beside Victor like his lackey?
00:44:47What? All temporary access revoked? My account's been frozen pending an investigation?
00:44:52Mr. Blackwood! I was a fool! Please, give me a chance! I swear I'll-
00:44:55Dad! We were family for ten years! Please save me!
00:44:59Ten years ago, I thought you were a man worthy of my daughter.
00:45:02Ten years later, I see you're worth less than a loyal dog.
00:45:05I'll give you every dollar I have. Just say one word to Mr. Blackwood.
00:45:11You reap what you sow. Your consequences are here. Take them. Get them out. Don't let this garbage contaminate Mr.
00:45:18Romano's gala.
00:45:19You can't do this! You're destroying the Miller family!
00:45:22Dad! Give me one more chance! I'm your son-in-law!
00:45:26You're Blackwood's benefactor! One word from you gets my job back! I'll be loyal to you forever!
00:45:31Even now, all you can think about is that position, Peter. You still have no why you lost.
00:45:35Say something for me! I'm still your husband!
00:45:36Husband, you beat me until I couldn't crawl. Did you remember you were my husband?
00:45:39From now on, you're only the defendant in my criminal case and my divorce.
00:45:42Take them away.
00:45:42Sophia!
00:45:43Dad, if you hadn't come back, I might have died in that house.
00:45:46Don't say that, sweetheart. Dad is here. Whatever happens, I've got you.
00:45:50Mr. Romano, Sophia, let's finish the gala.
00:45:56Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the ugly spectacle.
00:46:00Romano Humpstings will not break its business commitments because of a few frauds.
00:46:04For the next year, management fees on signed products will be reduced by 5 percentage points,
00:46:09and every term will be fully transparent.
00:46:11This is Sophia's first commitment to her partners as the new chairwoman of Romano Holdings.
00:46:19Congratulations, Ms. Romano! Here's to Romano Humpstings returning to the top!
00:46:23Dad, those people change sides in seconds. Are they really worth doing business with?
00:46:28Business isn't friendship. Contracts, rules, and mutual interests are more reliable than empty promises of loyalty.
00:46:35After today, they'll know where the line is.
00:46:37Mr. Romano, that was more effective than any revenge.
00:46:40I'm old. Experience is about all I have left.
00:46:42I'd like you to serve as Senior Strategic Advisor to Black Toot Capital.
00:46:48Nevada's hotel, real estate, and entertainment businesses are complicated.
00:46:54With you there, I can trust the operation.
00:46:57I only want a few quiet days with my daughter.
00:47:03Dad, Adrian's making a generous offer.
00:47:06I support you. You don't have to return to your old life.
00:47:09Just share your experience and let me learn from you.
00:47:14The two of you planned this together, didn't you?
00:47:17Once Sophia is settled, and I finish one last family matter, I'll come help.
00:47:21You have my-
00:47:21Help me! Let me hide here for a few days!
00:47:23Peter!
00:47:24Who beat you this bad?
00:47:26I crossed people I shouldn't have, and now I don't even have a place to sleep.
00:47:29Who would dare push a Miller this far?
00:47:31Those people, we can't touch them.
00:47:34Then you came back at the perfect time.
00:47:37Old Meadows is being redeveloped, and Blackwood Development wants the whole neighborhood.
00:47:42Once residents sign, every family gets new housing and relocation money.
00:47:47How much money?
00:47:48An independent appreciional, plus a 30% premium, plus a special $100,000 relocation payment for each household.
00:47:55But the real prize is the Romano Family Chapel and Memorial Hall.
00:48:02Victor's land?
00:48:03The Chapel, Memorial Hall, Old House, and Family Cemetery sit directly in front of the commercial district's main entrance.
00:48:11If the developer gets that land, the whole project's value doubles.
00:48:16The title is in Victor and Sophia's names.
00:48:19You're still Sophia's legal husband.
00:48:21With a power of attorney and a deed transfer, the project office may not look too closely.
00:48:26I have samples of her signature, a copy of her driver's license, and our marriage records.
00:48:31Forging an authorization and a quick-claim deed won't be hard.
00:48:34Once that property is in the Miller name, we'll spend the rest of our lives sleeping on money.
00:48:39Victor, Adrian, if you're gonna back me into a corner, then I'll destroy the Romano family treasures most.
00:49:04When I left this neighborhood as a young man, I had a few coins in my pocket.
00:49:07You're gonna take all she wants, set him behind.
00:49:11Ten years in prison later, the street is still here.
00:49:15And I feel twenty years older.
00:49:19Your roots are here, Mr. Romano.
00:49:22A lot of families in Old Meadows survived because you helped them.
00:49:28I heard the neighborhood's about to be redeveloped.
00:49:31I don't want anything for myself.
00:49:34I only want to make sure the elderly and working families aren't pushed out with nowhere to go.
00:49:39My sister runs the project.
00:49:42Blackwood Development changed the offer to independent appraised value plus thirty percent
00:49:48with an additional hundred thousand dollar relocation payment per household and a new community housing fund.
00:49:57Adrian, on behalf of everyone who lives here, thank you.
00:50:01Without the watch you gave me, a mother and I would have died in that motel room.
00:50:07This gift still feels too small.
00:50:10Mr. Romano, I'm Elena.
00:50:12That watch didn't just save my mother, it saved my brother and our entire family.
00:50:16Thank you for giving me the chance to stand here today.
00:50:20You're a good kid.
00:50:21Both of you grew into more than I ever am.
00:50:25Listen up.
00:50:27Don't ever say I didn't give you a chance.
00:50:30Now you can change your lives for good.
00:50:34Are you in or out?
00:50:36Decide today.
00:50:38Peter, didn't the developer already set the price?
00:50:42How are you going to make them pay more?
00:50:44You just came back from Vegas.
00:50:46Don't treat ordinary people like we're stupid.
00:50:50Do exactly what I say.
00:50:53And every household gets another hundred thousand dollars in cash on top of the current contract.
00:51:02Another hundred grand?
00:51:05My dump is already worth more than I expected.
00:51:09Add that and I'm in.
00:51:16Everybody settle down.
00:51:18Let Peter finish.
00:51:20Redevelopment is the only chance most of us will ever get to change our lives.
00:51:27But developers don't hand out money for free.
00:51:32We need leverage.
00:51:33What leverage do we have?
00:51:37The Romano family chapel and memorial house block the project's main entrance.
00:51:42Clear that land and Blackwood increases the budget for the whole neighborhood.
00:51:46That's Victor's family landmark.
00:51:49His father and grandfather are memorialized there.
00:51:52Victor helped a lot of families around here.
00:51:55Going after that building while he's gone doesn't feel right.
00:52:00Does right buy you a new house?
00:52:04Victor just got out of prison.
00:52:06And he's holding the land hostage for a bigger payday.
00:52:10If he won't sign, the whole project could die.
00:52:14Do you want to stay poor, guarding a moldy old chapel?
00:52:18Or take a hundred grand and move into a new house in Henderson?
00:52:23I want the money.
00:52:24If Victor comes back, we'll tell him we did it for the whole community.
00:52:29Now you're thinking.
00:52:35The first person to sign the site clearance consent gets the first deposit.
00:52:41Peter, quit talking big.
00:52:43Peter, quit talking big.
00:52:44The developer controls the land and the budget.
00:52:47Where are you getting this extra money?
00:52:50I don't have land.
00:52:58Victor does.
00:53:01The Romano House, Chapel, and Memorial Hall occupy the most valuable spot in the entire neighborhood.
00:53:08Clear that property and they can build the commercial entrance, parking, and hotel facilities.
00:53:15The project's value doubles.
00:53:19Peter, those are Romano family landmarks.
00:53:22If you tear down the chapel and disturb the Memorial Cemetery, the whole neighborhood will condemn you.
00:53:29Can morality pay my debts?
00:53:32Who saved me while Victor was in prison?
00:53:36The property is titled to him and Sophia, and I'm still Sophia's husband and legal representative.
00:53:45Look at the documents.
00:53:47Sophia authorized me to dispose of the property.
00:53:52Every legal paper is right here.
00:53:55Victor donated money to this neighborhood and helped a lot of people keep their homes.
00:53:59Destroying his Memorial Hall now would be unforgivable.
00:54:03What if Victor really comes back and finds out we touched his father's memorial?
00:54:07Who takes responsibility then?
00:54:08What's there to be afraid of?
00:54:10I've got Sophia's authorization.
00:54:12I speak for the Romano family.
00:54:14As far as I'm concerned, it's just a pile of old bricks and a few pictures of dead people.
00:54:20Everyone, as president of the Neighborhood Association, I have to consider the future of every homeowner.
00:54:26Peter has authorization, so we should help clear the building.
00:54:28When the additional budget arrives, the people who participate will share the extra proceeds on top of their existing compensation.
00:54:34Start tearing it down today.
00:54:36And the money will arrive before you know it.
00:54:47You want us to destroy the Romano property with our own hands?
00:54:51Are you out of your minds?
00:54:54Are you out of your minds?
00:54:56You think I'd need you if the project hadn't suddenly gone into review?
00:55:00Help break this obstacle and every household gets another $200,000.
00:55:09$200,000?
00:55:11I'm in.
00:55:12I'm going home for my tools right now.
00:55:20I'm in!
00:55:21We're in!
00:55:22We're in!
00:55:22Nobody turns the money!
00:55:23Nobody turns the money!
00:55:25Nobody turns the money!
00:55:33You're serious?
00:55:35That adds up to tens of millions across the neighborhood.
00:55:39Where are you getting it?
00:55:41Uncle, do you think I'm stupid?
00:55:44We're using their hands to tear down the chapel.
00:55:47Once the property payment hits my account,
00:55:5010 grand per household will shut them up.
00:55:54We keep everything else.
00:55:55The rest is ours.
00:55:57Smart.
00:55:58I'll call project manager Mark Dawson.
00:56:04Once demolition starts, he can release the funds.
00:56:16Project office?
00:56:19How's the old Meadows project coming along?
00:56:24Mark says some residents are enthusiastic
00:56:27and are voluntarily helping clear buildings scheduled for demolition.
00:56:30Once the funding is confirmed, they can move to the next phase.
00:56:33Don't wait for me.
00:56:34We can't delay Mr. Romano's hometown.
00:56:38Release every dollar residents are entitled to under the contracts.
00:56:43Anyone cooperating legally must be treated fairly.
00:56:48Understood.
00:56:54I'll have the project team verify the documents before moving forward.
00:56:58I want to see the family chapel first.
00:57:01Then leave flowers at my father's grave.
00:57:04I've been gone so long, I don't even know whether the lights in the memorial all still works.
00:57:09Elena and I will go with you.
00:57:22Dad, your disappointing son finally came home 10 years too late.
00:57:26You taught me to keep my word and help people.
00:57:29I gave 10 years of my life to loyalty, only to be betrayed by the men I trusted most.
00:57:37Tell me, Dad, was holding on to those values ever worth it?
00:57:45Mr. Romano, not every debt is measured in money.
00:57:49Without you, Elena and I wouldn't be here.
00:57:52The lives we have are the answer left behind by your kindness.
00:57:59Hearing that means I can face my father with my head held high.
00:58:02Once I settle my family affairs, I'll come help at Blackwood.
00:58:07As long as you don't mind an old timer who's still trying to catch up with the world.
00:58:11Blackwood's doors will always be open.
00:58:13Mr. Blackwood! Mr. Romano! We have a crisis!
00:58:17What happened?
00:58:18Peter forged Sofia's authorization.
00:58:20He has Frank, the neighborhood association, and a crowd of residents carrying sledgehammers and crowbars
00:58:25to demolish the Romano family chapel and memorial house.
00:58:31He dares touch what my father left behind?
00:58:45That animal didn't learn enough from the last lesson.
00:58:52What about the residents? I treated them well.
00:58:56Did Peter turn them against me too?
00:58:59He promised another $200,000 per household.
00:59:02A lot of them have gone blind with greed.
00:59:05That money was a special relocation benefit Blackwood offered out of respect for Mr. Romano.
00:59:11It was not a reward for looting a historic property.
00:59:16Freeze every special relocation payment and the entire community housing fund for Old Meadows immediately.
00:59:22Put all base purchase agreements under legal review.
00:59:24Any unauthorized demolition will be treated as criminal property damage.
00:59:30Mr. Romano, let's go.
00:59:42Peter, we had a deal. We tear it down. You pay us. Don't screw us over.
00:59:51Relax. The moment this dump comes down, Mark Dawson releases the money.
00:59:57It blocks the entrance to the whole project.
01:00:00Once it's gone, every one of us gets rich.
01:00:05Then what are we waiting for? Start swinging!
01:00:11I'd like to see one brick of Romano property.
01:00:20Everybody, stop!
01:00:24Everybody, stop!
01:00:33Victor?
01:00:37You're really back?
01:00:38We were only...
01:00:40Who gave you the right to tear down my family's chapel
01:00:44and destroy the memorial my father and grandfather left behind?
01:00:53Peter and the association told us to.
01:00:55They said it was necessary for the whole neighborhood's redevelopment.
01:00:59Victor...
01:01:02Peter showed us Sophia's authorization and...
01:01:07and the title documents.
01:01:09The association was only following the paperwork.
01:01:15I'm alive and Sophia never authorized anyone.
01:01:21Since when do you decide what happens to Romano property?
01:01:26It was Peter.
01:01:29He said he represented Sophia and the Romano family.
01:01:36You again.
01:01:37The handcuffs last time didn't wake you up.
01:01:40Now you dare come after my father's memorial?
01:01:43So what if I did?
01:01:44This isn't the golden crown, Victor.
01:01:46Your old reputation doesn't scare me here.
01:01:48The homeowners of Old Meadows decide what happens now.
01:01:51Everyone!
01:01:51This land determines whether you get new homes and compensation.
01:01:55Clear the old building, the project begins.
01:01:57What are we doing wrong?
01:01:58He's right!
01:01:58The chapel blocks the project entrance.
01:02:00If it stays, when do we get paid?
01:02:03We thought you weren't coming back.
01:02:04And Peter had Sophia's authorization.
01:02:06We were doing it for the community.
01:02:09The Romano family's roots are here.
01:02:13As long as I'm alive, no one touches this building or the memorial cemetery behind it.
01:02:21Victor, how selfish can you be?
01:02:25You want an entire neighborhood trapped behind moldy brick walls for a few pictures of dead people?
01:02:35Look at him!
01:02:38He's holding out for a higher price.
01:02:40So he can swallow the development budget himself!
01:02:44If he keeps causing trouble, Blackwood could pull the funding at any time.
01:02:49If you want more money for yourself, don't drag the rest of us down.
01:02:52You just got out of prison and you need cash.
01:02:56You're using a historic building to squeeze the developer for everything you can get.
01:02:59That's right!
01:03:06Mr. Romaro Gay saved my life.
01:03:09The compensation you're fighting over, it wouldn't even register as a number to him.
01:03:15Your money is your business.
01:03:18The rest of us have to survive.
01:03:24Mark Dawson promised the special relocation payments would be released the moment the chapel is cleared today.
01:03:32Blackwood's owner is coming too!
01:03:35Anyone who helps Victor block this is the enemy of the entire neighborhood!
01:03:41Listen to me.
01:03:44I have never asked for one extra dollar.
01:03:48Shut up!
01:03:50Start swinging!
01:03:51Flatten this dog!
01:03:53Tear it down!
01:03:55Touch it once!
01:03:57The bonus will be the least of what you lose.
01:04:06Have you all lost your minds?
01:04:11You're willing to destroy my benefactor's historic property for extra profits that exist only in Peter's mouth.
01:04:20Anyone who strikes that building again loses every special Blackwood relocation payment and every dollar in the community fund.
01:04:30Every unauthorized act of damage will be turned over to the police.
01:04:35Who are you?
01:04:37Who are you?
01:04:39What gives you the power to decide our compensation?
01:04:42I'm the Chief Executive Officer of Blackwood Development and the final authority on the Old Meadows Project.
01:04:59Mark Dawson already approved the project!
01:05:03You think some young woman can cancel it with a sentence?
01:05:06That ID is obviously Victor hired?
01:05:10Someone that young couldn't possibly run Blackwood Development.
01:05:13Let's see what she says when Mark gets here.
01:05:15Don't let her scare you!
01:05:17Swing the hammers!
01:05:19I'll take responsibility!
01:05:21Take one more step,
01:05:23and you can explain yourself to my attorneys, the police, and the security team standing in front of you.
01:05:33Mark?
01:05:38What?
01:05:40Mark, it's me.
01:05:42A few people are causing trouble at the chapel.
01:05:46I'll clear them out right now.
01:05:48The project won't be delayed.
01:05:52What?!
01:05:53Every special relocation payment and the community fund are frozen?!
01:05:58The base contracts are under legal review?!
01:06:00Mark, are you screwing with me?!
01:06:03Hello? Hello?!
01:06:05What did you just say?!
01:06:07The $100,000 payment is gone?!
01:06:13Now to the project team.
01:06:15The independent appraised purchase price remains,
01:06:18but the 30% premium, the $100,000 payment per household, and the community fund are all suspended.
01:06:26She's really in charge of the project?
01:06:28Without the special payment.
01:06:31How am I supposed to buy a new home and pay off my loan?!
01:06:35Those extra concessions were negotiated, by Mr. Romano.
01:06:40For the entire community.
01:06:44And now you're using them as an incentive to tear down his family's memorial.
01:06:50No way!
01:06:51Victor did this!
01:06:53He failed to jack up the price!
01:06:55So now Blackwood's making us pay for it!
01:06:59Did you make the developer to freeze the bonuses?!
01:07:05Victor, if you wanted more money, why make the whole community suffer for it?!
01:07:09We want to see Mark Dawson here.
01:07:11Let the project manager explain-
01:07:12The truth is standing in front of you, and you still choose to believe a fraud.
01:07:17Shut up!
01:07:19Mark will be here soon.
01:07:21As soon as we get Victor out of the way, the bonuses will come back!
01:07:24Victor, if you destroy our future, we won't let you get away with it!
01:07:27Let's-
01:07:33Mr. Dawson, you're finally here!
01:07:35The whole neighborhood supports redevelopment.
01:07:38Victor is the only person blocking the project.
01:07:43Mark, these residents are ready to move out.
01:07:46Restore the bonuses, and I'll have the chapel demolished immediately.
01:07:50We're helping your project!
01:07:52Victor is the one creating trouble!
01:07:54Show your hands!
01:07:55Who votes to remove Victor from the neighborhood association?
01:08:00Get him out! Get him out!
01:08:01Don't let him ruin our chance!
01:08:04You've heard the homeowners.
01:08:06Mark, give the word, and we'll be ready for demolition.
01:08:14The real boss is here.
01:08:15Mark, this is how you manage your project?
01:08:19Ms. Blackwood, I had no idea you were here.
01:08:23Is she really in charge of Blackwood development?
01:08:29That's impossible.
01:08:32Mark, you've got the wrong person.
01:08:34How could she be in charge of the whole project?
01:08:36Peter, you forged Sophia's authorization.
01:08:40Incited residents to destroy a privately owned historic property.
01:08:46And you still dare to ask who I am?
01:08:49Ms. Blackwood, the documents I received said Sophia had authorized Peter.
01:08:54I failed to verify them properly.
01:09:00This is on me.
01:09:01Send every forged document to legal and the police.
01:09:04Suspend the old Meadows project immediately.
01:09:09Blackwood is withdrawing all special benefits and will re-evaluate whether this development...
01:09:14Mr. Romano refused to retaliate against residents.
01:09:17I have less patience.
01:09:19For $200,000 that never existed, you almost destroyed his family's legacy.
01:09:26You're canceling the project?
01:09:29What happens to our homes?
01:09:33Mrs. Blackwood, Peter and Frank lied to us.
01:09:36They said Victor was deliberately blocking this project.
01:09:39You two bastards!
01:09:41Used us as pawns!
01:09:48Victor, greed blinded us.
01:09:51We nearly destroyed the memorial your father left behind.
01:09:56I'm sorry.
01:10:02Mr. Romano, please speak for the neighborhood.
01:10:05Don't let every family lose its chance to relocate because of our mistake.
01:10:14Enough!
01:10:17Stop solving problems with violence.
01:10:20Mark, based on ordinary commercial standards, what terms should Blackwood have offered Old Meadows?
01:10:26The additional 30% premium, the $100,000 special payment for each household and the community fund were all added
01:10:33by Mrs. Blackwood as a personal courtesy to you.
01:10:37Easy Money has a way of making people forget their principles.
01:10:42The project will move forward, but there's no need to inflate the offer as a favor to me.
01:10:47Acquire every property at its independently appraised market value and provide each household with a standard $25,000 relocation payment.
01:10:54Make sure the entire process is fully transparent and subject to an independent autist.
01:10:59If that's your decision, we'll execute those terms.
01:11:01But that means we're losing out on $100,000.
01:11:04Shut up!
01:11:05Mr. Romano saved the project and our lawful compensation.
01:11:08That's mercy enough.
01:11:11We accept the independent appraisal.
01:11:14But those three forged documents and tricked us into destroying private property.
01:11:18They can't just get away with it.
01:11:23All the evidence is here.
01:11:24Peter violated the terms of his bail.
01:11:27Frank and Ray are suspected of conspiracy to commit fraud and solicitation of criminal property damage.
01:11:32No.
01:11:34I didn't make those documents!
01:11:36I never authorized Peter to dispose of any Romano family assets.
01:11:41A minute ago, you were so eager to kick me out of the community. Now look at you.
01:11:46For money, you forged documents and had private property torn down.
01:11:50Do you really think you're still fit to be president of this association?
01:11:54Victor, I was wrong.
01:11:56Please give me one more chance.
01:11:58That's...
01:11:59That's not my decision to make.
01:12:02You've lost the trust of this entire community.
01:12:06Remove him!
01:12:07Hold a new association election!
01:12:08Hooray!
01:12:12Peter lied to me!
01:12:13I only helped contact the project team!
01:12:19Dad!
01:12:20I know I messed up!
01:12:22Forgive me one more time!
01:12:24I'll do anything!
01:12:26Domestic abuse, coercive filming, drugging, forgery, fraud, and violating bail.
01:12:35Save it for the court.
01:12:41Dad, I can't go to prison!
01:12:43Sophia, save me!
01:12:45You are not my family anymore.
01:12:50Everything's been settled, and the chapel has been restored.
01:12:53I can finally retire in peace.
01:12:56Not a chance.
01:12:58The senior advisor role at Blackwood has been waiting for you.
01:13:08Elena and I may be young.
01:13:10But we still need someone who truly understands Vegas, business, and human nature.
01:13:15If you walk away completely, that would be the real waste.
01:13:19Mr. Romano, forget senior advisor.
01:13:22We'd hand you the entire project without a second thought.
01:13:27You too can stand on your own now.
01:13:30I'm too old to reclaim the throne as Vegas' king.
01:13:34I'll serve as your advisor, but the throne is yours now.
01:13:39Dad.
01:13:41Romano Holdings needs your experience, but more than that,
01:13:44we need you home for dinner every night.
01:13:49That's a deal I can accept.
01:13:54Mr. Romano, greed blinded us.
01:13:57We nearly destroyed your family's roots.
01:13:58These past few months, the project has moved forward at fair market prices,
01:14:03and you helped elderly and low-income residents find new homes.
01:14:06We're ashamed of what we did.
01:14:08What's done is done.
01:14:10But remember this.
01:14:12Money can buy property.
01:14:13It cannot buy dignity.
01:14:15And it cannot buy a family's history.
01:14:17This street isn't only my home.
01:14:18It's home to all of us.
01:14:20From now on, do things the right way.
01:14:23Earn an honest living, and together, we'll build a better future.
01:14:31Dad, what brings you out here to enjoy the view with me tonight?
01:14:35Things finally slowing down at Blackwood?
01:14:44Adrian and Elena have built a world of their own now.
01:14:47My job is just to offer them advice and make sure I'm home for dinner with my daughter.
01:14:52Peter, Vinny, Tony, and Hank have all faced justice.
01:14:57Romano Horsings passed its new compliance review too.
01:15:00From now on, the Golden Crown will operate strictly within the law.
01:15:04Good.
01:15:05In life, you'll stumble.
01:15:07You'll trust the wrong people.
01:15:09But never lose your conscience.
01:15:12Stay on the right path, and more doors will open for you.
01:15:20For the first time in ten years, it finally feels like we can breathe again.
01:15:25Then breathe. You earned it.
01:15:29I'm sorry to interrupt.
01:15:30This was delivered to the Golden Crown tonight.
01:15:33No return address.
01:15:35No delivery record.
01:15:36And somehow, the security cameras conveniently went dark for three minutes.
01:15:46The paper's old.
01:15:48Nevada State Bank used envelopes like this before the merger.
01:15:58Dad.
01:16:00Is this the vault key you gave Tony all those years ago?
01:16:06I left ten sealed lock boxes.
01:16:09Tony said the vault had been emptied years ago.
01:16:12But this key never made it into his hands.
01:16:18There's a message.
01:16:20Ten boxes.
01:16:21Bellini only found nine.
01:16:26Adrian, we'll have to take a rain check on dinner tonight.
01:16:29We've got some unfinished business from ten years ago.
01:16:38Ten years ago, Romano's private vault was taken over under a federal evidence preservation order.
01:16:43Nine lock boxes were turned over to the authorized custodian.
01:16:47One was transferred separately.
01:16:49Where was it transferred to?
01:16:51The destination is redacted.
01:16:53The transfer was authorized by an ATF evidence supervisor named Daniel Cole.
01:16:57I never heard that name during the trial.
01:17:00There's something else.
01:17:02The tenth lock box was marked non-financial evidence do not release to Bellini.
01:17:07Someone on the investigation knew Tony couldn't be trusted.
01:17:12Or maybe they knew Tony wasn't working alone.
01:17:20This is the final access log.
01:17:22The night before Mr. Romano was arrested, a representative from Hawthorne Resorts and Gaming requested a verification of the vault's
01:17:29insurance value.
01:17:30Hawthorne couldn't have known that vault existed.
01:17:35Malcolm Hawthorne had his eyes on Golden Crown twenty years ago.
01:17:39I refused him twice.
01:17:42The original access log was pulled three days ago.
01:17:46By a woman named Camille Hawthorne.
01:17:58Lock down the building. Nobody leaves.
01:18:02Golden Crown's revenue is back to 70% of its pre-shot down level.
01:18:08More importantly, every dollar is legitimate and fully traceable.
01:18:13With the new resort license, Romano Hunterdings can return to Nevada's top operators.
01:18:19Then let me spare you the embarrassment of a very public failure.
01:18:25You barged into my boardroom without an appointment.
01:18:29Who are you?
01:18:30Camille Hawthorne.
01:18:31President of Hawthorne Resorts and Gaming.
01:18:35Malcolm's daughter.
01:18:36And you're Victor Romano.
01:18:39The man Vegas remembers for handcuffs, not balance sheets.
01:18:44Watch your tone.
01:18:47This is business, Mr. Blackwood.
01:18:49Hawthorne is offering $200 million to acquire all of Romano Henderson's operating assets.
01:18:54A clean cash exit.
01:18:56No more investigations hanging over you.
01:19:00$200 million won't buy Golden Crown.
01:19:03Wouldn't even cover the land under the underground parking garage.
01:19:06I'm not buying the company.
01:19:08I'm buying your last chance to leave with dignity.
