Catherine Lane rides up to the Waldorf-Astoria on horseback with a VIP invitation in hand. She calls Leo to request a formal evening gown. Outside on the steps, a woman in a silver dress runs into Catherine and damages her own clothing. The angry guest slaps Catherine and demands money. Moments afterward, a luxury motorcade delivers CEO Rella Lane, who ignores the flattering guest and calls Catherine mom.
Catherine Lane arrives at the gala venue riding a white horse. She holds a VIP invitation to the Golden Gala in her hand. Then she phones her assistant Leo and tells him to bring her an evening gown for the event.
A woman wearing a silver sequined dress collides with Catherine outside the entrance, tearing her dress. She insults Catherine as a stall cleaner, demands cash for the damage, and hits Catherine across the face.
North Stone Construction CEO Rella Lane arrives in a motorcade of luxury vehicles. The guest in silver rushes forward to win her favor. Rella bypasses the woman, faces Catherine directly, and calls her mother.
“Look at you. What are you, the stable girl? Do you spend your days mucking out stalls?”
“Because I said so! Now pay up, or I'll keep hitting you until you do!”
“Is that... Rella Lane? The CEO of North Stone Construction?”
“Mom.”
Rella Lane steps out of her car, bypasses the eager guest, and addresses Catherine as mother. The woman in the silver dress is frozen in horror on the red carpet. How will this arrogant socialite react now that she knows she just assaulted the mother of a powerful construction CEO?
