1
00:00:07,929 --> 00:00:09,971
Previously on Billions...
2
00:00:09,973 --> 00:00:12,596
Rhoades' misconduct is being investigated.
3
00:00:12,598 --> 00:00:15,321
I have nothing to hide. You'll
receive full cooperation.
4
00:00:15,323 --> 00:00:17,988
With it, without it,
I'll find out what's true.
5
00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:18,830
Know that.
6
00:00:18,832 --> 00:00:21,020
You broke into my computer,
7
00:00:21,022 --> 00:00:23,586
opened my files, and read my session notes.
8
00:00:23,588 --> 00:00:25,298
You stole the evidence you needed.
9
00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:27,443
I thought I wanted to
bring you on full time,
10
00:00:27,445 --> 00:00:29,023
but now that I know I can trust you,
11
00:00:29,025 --> 00:00:30,048
I'm certain I do.
12
00:00:30,050 --> 00:00:31,921
I'm going to war with Krakow and Guangdong,
13
00:00:31,923 --> 00:00:33,482
and I need boots on the ground.
14
00:00:33,484 --> 00:00:35,024
I want to crush this fuck.
15
00:00:35,026 --> 00:00:37,886
That glass... it's not a barrier.
16
00:00:37,888 --> 00:00:40,581
It's an asset. It's what makes you good.
17
00:00:40,583 --> 00:00:43,532
You see things differently.
18
00:00:43,534 --> 00:00:44,834
That's an edge.
19
00:00:44,836 --> 00:00:48,838
The Attorney General's
called me down to Washington.
20
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,065
She's gonna fire me.
21
00:00:50,067 --> 00:00:52,942
Take out an enemy, a
big, hard-to-kill one.
22
00:00:52,944 --> 00:00:54,690
It's tough to fire you then.
23
00:00:54,692 --> 00:00:58,313
I need to know how to beat him.
24
00:00:58,315 --> 00:00:59,829
Will you help me?
25
00:00:59,831 --> 00:01:01,597
You have to be prepared to do things
26
00:01:01,599 --> 00:01:04,292
that are entirely outside the bounds
27
00:01:04,294 --> 00:01:06,789
of conventional morality.

00:01:26,236 --> 00:01:27,818
You know, the first time
I ever went to a game,
30
00:01:27,820 --> 00:01:29,896
I was in your box.
31
00:01:29,898 --> 00:01:31,727
So, you didn't grow up with football?
32
00:01:31,729 --> 00:01:35,975
Oh, I did, but it was on a
24-inch Trinitron knock-off.
33
00:01:37,211 --> 00:01:40,091
TV's great, but you really miss out
34
00:01:40,093 --> 00:01:42,236
on being part of something very special.
35
00:01:42,238 --> 00:01:44,333
Yeah, you do...
36
00:01:44,335 --> 00:01:45,984
which is why I've been thinking
37
00:01:45,986 --> 00:01:48,474
about watching a few more games in person.
38
00:01:48,476 --> 00:01:50,772
Bobby, I don't know
where you get your Intel,
39
00:01:50,774 --> 00:01:52,322
but it's accurate.
40
00:01:52,324 --> 00:01:54,060
So that franchise is on the block.
41
00:01:54,062 --> 00:01:56,612
It's going to be announced
in the next couple of days.
42
00:01:56,614 --> 00:02:00,983
Well, when I become an approved bidder,
43
00:02:00,985 --> 00:02:03,433
I hope I can count on your support.
44
00:02:03,435 --> 00:02:05,186
Well, you can.
45
00:02:05,188 --> 00:02:07,588
But the hoops you have to crawl through...
46
00:02:07,590 --> 00:02:08,466
they don't give a shit
47
00:02:08,468 --> 00:02:11,226
how many zeros are in your bank account.
48
00:02:11,228 --> 00:02:13,023
I understand.
49
00:02:13,025 --> 00:02:14,387
Just trying to figure out where...
50
00:02:14,389 --> 00:02:15,688
where my seat's gonna be.
51
00:02:15,690 --> 00:02:16,583
They're not gonna be here
52
00:02:16,585 --> 00:02:18,450
'cause my team's not for sale, Bobby.
53
00:02:18,452 --> 00:02:19,507
Right.
54
00:02:30,719 --> 00:02:32,619
And how are the children handling it
55
00:02:32,621 --> 00:02:34,659
on the nights you actually switch?
56
00:02:34,661 --> 00:02:35,849
- Fine.
- Not very well.
57
00:02:37,353 --> 00:02:40,020
Kevin is still on about that vows thing.
58
00:02:40,022 --> 00:02:41,888
He brought that up again?
59
00:02:41,890 --> 00:02:45,292
Yeah. Not directly, but, uh, yeah.
60
00:02:45,294 --> 00:02:49,629
Right after we split,
uh, in a moment of anger,
61
00:02:49,631 --> 00:02:52,365
Kevin turned to me and he said, uh,
62
00:02:52,367 --> 00:02:54,630
"I thought 'vow' meant 'promise.'"
63
00:02:54,632 --> 00:02:56,036
We started him in therapy the next week
64
00:02:56,038 --> 00:02:57,336
and started coming here.
65
00:02:57,338 --> 00:02:59,839
Yeah, well, anyway, he
crawled in my bed last night
66
00:02:59,841 --> 00:03:01,608
and asked me to make vows with him.
67
00:03:01,610 --> 00:03:03,753
Did he have something specific in mind?
68
00:03:03,755 --> 00:03:04,811
It was a list.
69
00:03:04,813 --> 00:03:08,614
First he asked me to vow...
70
00:03:08,616 --> 00:03:10,316
never to leave him.
71
00:03:12,787 --> 00:03:14,587
And then he wanted me to vow
72
00:03:14,589 --> 00:03:18,091
to get you and me back together.
73
00:03:18,093 --> 00:03:20,025
What did you say?
74
00:03:21,596 --> 00:03:25,230
I said that Mommy and Daddy
were trying to work things out...
75
00:03:25,232 --> 00:03:28,366
and that, while I can't
promise that they will,
76
00:03:28,368 --> 00:03:31,704
I can promise that we will
always love him and Eva,
77
00:03:31,706 --> 00:03:34,139
that we will always put them first.
78
00:03:36,043 --> 00:03:39,211
And that's my most sacred vow.
79
00:03:41,548 --> 00:03:44,149
He's a really good dad.
80
00:03:44,151 --> 00:03:46,050
Tell him that.
81
00:03:50,224 --> 00:03:54,092
Chuck, you're a really good dad.
82
00:03:54,094 --> 00:03:58,162
You're a really good mom.
83
00:03:58,164 --> 00:04:00,364
Not every couple can do that,
84
00:04:00,366 --> 00:04:04,869
recognize each other in the
midst of anger and uncertainty.
85
00:04:04,871 --> 00:04:06,938
That's intimacy.
86
00:04:06,940 --> 00:04:09,540
Let's see if we can keep that going.
87
00:04:09,542 --> 00:04:13,044
- What else is on your minds?
- Money.
88
00:04:13,046 --> 00:04:14,711
The Yale Club is kind of steep.
89
00:04:14,713 --> 00:04:17,381
And we had talked about
sharing a satellite apartment.
90
00:04:17,383 --> 00:04:18,782
I'm fine at my sister's,
91
00:04:18,784 --> 00:04:21,652
but I think it makes sense
for you to get your own place.
92
00:04:23,789 --> 00:04:25,556
Uh-huh.
93
00:04:28,794 --> 00:04:30,293
Really, it's hard not to notice
94
00:04:30,295 --> 00:04:32,663
the shrink sorority eye-lock thing.
95
00:04:32,665 --> 00:04:35,065
Chuck, this is not a conspiracy.
96
00:04:35,067 --> 00:04:37,034
I don't want to speak for Wendy.
97
00:04:37,036 --> 00:04:39,102
I'll just say it felt like you had
98
00:04:39,104 --> 00:04:42,438
an emotional response
that you didn't share.
99
00:04:45,410 --> 00:04:48,044
Signing a lease...
100
00:04:48,046 --> 00:04:50,446
is a commitment.
101
00:04:50,448 --> 00:04:52,948
Do you mean financial? Do you mean...
102
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:55,685
I had hoped that this separation
103
00:04:55,687 --> 00:04:58,421
wouldn't be permanent
enough that it would entail
104
00:04:58,423 --> 00:05:00,756
references and credit checks
105
00:05:00,758 --> 00:05:04,760
and outlaying security
payments, but it'll be fine.
106
00:05:04,762 --> 00:05:07,563
You know, I guess I'll
just, uh, sell something.
107
00:05:07,565 --> 00:05:10,599
Chuck, you've got to
accept the new reality.
108
00:05:11,736 --> 00:05:13,402
This runs deep,
109
00:05:13,404 --> 00:05:15,905
really fucking deep.
110
00:05:18,843 --> 00:05:21,510
I understand.
111
00:05:21,512 --> 00:05:24,012
And that's intimacy, too.
112
00:05:24,014 --> 00:05:26,215
It's just harder to hear.
113
00:05:27,751 --> 00:05:31,253
- You been on Twitter today?
- Assume I haven't.
114
00:05:31,255 --> 00:05:33,021
Krakow tweeted, "Looking forward
115
00:05:33,023 --> 00:05:35,324
to kicking major Axe Capital ass again
116
00:05:35,326 --> 00:05:38,059
in Hold 'em tomorrow night, #alphacup."
117
00:05:38,061 --> 00:05:39,961
It's fucking trending in New York.
118
00:05:39,963 --> 00:05:41,429
Don't respond.
119
00:05:41,431 --> 00:05:42,997
If he wants to pop off online
120
00:05:42,999 --> 00:05:44,999
while using the squatty potty, let him.
121
00:05:45,001 --> 00:05:47,001
We'll do our talking at the table.
122
00:05:47,003 --> 00:05:50,071
His team has outlasted ours
four out of the last five years.
123
00:05:50,073 --> 00:05:52,440
He's a good fucking card
player... great, even.
124
00:05:52,442 --> 00:05:54,542
Phil Laak calls Krakow a wizard,
125
00:05:54,544 --> 00:05:57,345
says he can GTO-grind a man into a nub.
126
00:05:57,347 --> 00:05:59,046
How'd you like to go work for him?
127
00:05:59,048 --> 00:06:00,381
No, thank you, sir.
128
00:06:01,384 --> 00:06:02,650
Respectfully, delicately,
129
00:06:02,652 --> 00:06:05,553
regretfully...
130
00:06:05,555 --> 00:06:07,121
he's better than you.
131
00:06:07,123 --> 00:06:08,589
I see that.
132
00:06:08,591 --> 00:06:10,557
Head-to-head,
he is better.
133
00:06:10,559 --> 00:06:12,492
So, we don't play?
134
00:06:12,494 --> 00:06:15,362
No. We reduce his edge.
135
00:06:16,866 --> 00:06:18,232
Is this, um...
136
00:06:18,234 --> 00:06:20,234
is this last night's or this morning's?
137
00:06:20,236 --> 00:06:23,303
What if I don't want to answer?
138
00:06:23,305 --> 00:06:26,573
Well, maybe shower before
heading to the office.
139
00:06:26,575 --> 00:06:28,675
I already did.
140
00:06:28,677 --> 00:06:31,878
Well, I'm thinking maybe you hit it again.
141
00:06:41,390 --> 00:06:43,089
Heard Tisch will support your bid.
142
00:06:43,091 --> 00:06:44,690
Seems likely.
143
00:06:44,692 --> 00:06:46,993
I wish I could be in
there negotiating for you.
144
00:06:46,995 --> 00:06:49,628
We handled the M&A work
for the last two team sales.
145
00:06:49,630 --> 00:06:52,131
Well, that's what Chuck
Rhoades will do to a man...
146
00:06:52,133 --> 00:06:53,532
rob him of his life's work.
147
00:06:53,534 --> 00:06:54,901
He's a Stalinist...
148
00:06:54,903 --> 00:06:56,735
convict first, then have the trial.
149
00:06:56,737 --> 00:06:58,637
He hasn't even indicted anyone
150
00:06:58,639 --> 00:07:00,806
at my firm or subpoenaed documents,
151
00:07:00,808 --> 00:07:03,241
just allowed the leak, the insinuations,
152
00:07:03,243 --> 00:07:05,243
the idea to fester in the minds
153
00:07:05,245 --> 00:07:07,245
of the public that we're dirty.
154
00:07:07,247 --> 00:07:11,317
As a tactician, I admire it.
155
00:07:11,319 --> 00:07:13,051
As the target of it...
156
00:07:13,053 --> 00:07:14,820
Old days when the man with the badge
157
00:07:14,822 --> 00:07:16,387
used it for his own purposes,
158
00:07:16,389 --> 00:07:18,089
instead of to benefit the township?
159
00:07:18,091 --> 00:07:20,458
That man ended up on the
wrong end of a noose...
160
00:07:20,460 --> 00:07:21,726
Yeah.
161
00:07:21,728 --> 00:07:23,494
...but not before he got a fuck
162
00:07:23,496 --> 00:07:25,396
of a lot of his own hanging done first.
163
00:07:25,398 --> 00:07:27,365
Well, then, we better make sure
164
00:07:27,367 --> 00:07:30,001
we burn the gallows down
before he gets to you.
165
00:07:42,982 --> 00:07:45,683
- Is he prepared?
- Yeah.
166
00:07:45,685 --> 00:07:48,219
He's ready to do whatever he has to.
167
00:07:48,221 --> 00:07:50,120
I look forward to meeting him, then.
168
00:07:50,122 --> 00:07:52,389
Anything come from the surveillance yet?
169
00:07:52,391 --> 00:07:55,226
Rhoades is not exploitable at this moment.
170
00:07:55,228 --> 00:07:58,028
- No openings.
- Find one.
171
00:07:58,030 --> 00:08:01,565
Hall, I hear his name in my sleep
172
00:08:01,567 --> 00:08:04,235
and underneath every thought I have.
173
00:08:04,237 --> 00:08:05,602
It's always running.
174
00:08:05,604 --> 00:08:07,471
It's like the fucking Lord's Prayer.
175
00:08:07,473 --> 00:08:08,705
Find one.
176
00:08:11,343 --> 00:08:14,277
Is there some kind of a
prop bet going on here?
177
00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:17,647
First one to mention Lawrence Boyd
178
00:08:17,649 --> 00:08:19,750
has to buy everyone else cotton candy?
179
00:08:19,752 --> 00:08:21,784
There's just nothing to say, boss.
180
00:08:21,786 --> 00:08:23,119
Really?
181
00:08:23,121 --> 00:08:25,255
Nothing that isn't speculative at best.
182
00:08:25,257 --> 00:08:27,323
It's crunch time,
183
00:08:27,325 --> 00:08:29,392
and Connerty's pulling a Scottie Pippen.
184
00:08:29,394 --> 00:08:31,261
What, do you got a migraine, Bryan?
185
00:08:31,263 --> 00:08:32,929
Come on, Chuck. That's not fair...
186
00:08:32,931 --> 00:08:34,364
to Pippen.
187
00:08:34,366 --> 00:08:36,465
The man had just suffered a personal loss.
188
00:08:36,467 --> 00:08:38,601
I don't give a shit. Lonnie, how about you?
189
00:08:38,603 --> 00:08:41,203
I started a deep dive into
their inversion practices.
190
00:08:41,205 --> 00:08:43,238
They keep so much cash stashed overseas,
191
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,808
I figured there's got to
be some tax irregularities.
192
00:08:45,810 --> 00:08:46,675
And were there?
193
00:08:48,312 --> 00:08:51,980
So, there's nothing on Boyd
and company churning accounts?
194
00:08:51,982 --> 00:08:55,017
On, uh, advising retirees
against their interests
195
00:08:55,019 --> 00:08:57,585
or subprime mortgages making a comeback?
196
00:08:57,587 --> 00:09:00,022
How about hookers for foreign clients?
197
00:09:00,024 --> 00:09:02,857
You're telling me there is
nothing of which to speak?
198
00:09:02,859 --> 00:09:04,793
Not as of yet.
199
00:09:06,063 --> 00:09:07,996
I found something.
200
00:09:07,998 --> 00:09:10,432
Please.
201
00:09:12,502 --> 00:09:13,835
A couple of months ago,
202
00:09:13,837 --> 00:09:16,237
a flight attendant on the Spartan-Ives jet
203
00:09:16,239 --> 00:09:18,406
made a small trade ahead of a merger,
204
00:09:18,408 --> 00:09:20,675
turned a $24,000 profit.
205
00:09:20,677 --> 00:09:22,877
She overheard something.
206
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:25,647
No benefit was exchanged. There's no crime.
207
00:09:25,649 --> 00:09:28,349
I know that. You know that.
208
00:09:28,351 --> 00:09:30,384
We went to law school.
209
00:09:30,386 --> 00:09:31,652
She didn't.
210
00:09:31,654 --> 00:09:33,487
Work this.
211
00:09:33,489 --> 00:09:35,556
- Work it with her.
- Come on.
212
00:09:35,558 --> 00:09:37,925
How many dots do you figure
213
00:09:37,927 --> 00:09:40,594
between a flight attendant
and Lawrence Boyd?
214
00:09:40,596 --> 00:09:42,796
You'll let me know.
215
00:09:45,133 --> 00:09:47,400
Or maybe you won't.
216
00:09:51,073 --> 00:09:53,373
Is there an implication in that?
217
00:09:53,375 --> 00:09:55,609
Yeah.
218
00:09:55,611 --> 00:09:57,143
There is.
219
00:10:07,222 --> 00:10:09,189
What is the Alpha Cup?
220
00:10:09,191 --> 00:10:11,191
Wall Street charity poker tournament.
221
00:10:11,193 --> 00:10:12,859
The winner gets to donate the pot
222
00:10:12,861 --> 00:10:14,461
to the charity of their choice.
223
00:10:14,463 --> 00:10:16,096
It's like $15 million.
224
00:10:16,098 --> 00:10:17,129
Oh.
225
00:10:17,131 --> 00:10:19,064
Why are you asking about the Alpha Cup?
226
00:10:19,066 --> 00:10:20,900
Because Axe invited me to play
227
00:10:20,902 --> 00:10:23,235
in the firm's other seat along with him.
228
00:10:23,237 --> 00:10:26,438
Oh, this is fucking bullshit!
229
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,508
Turn the fuck away.
230
00:10:32,279 --> 00:10:33,479
That's my fucking seat.
231
00:10:34,548 --> 00:10:36,382
I'm pretty sure it's
my fucking seat.
232
00:10:36,384 --> 00:10:37,549
I paid for it.
233
00:10:37,551 --> 00:10:39,651
I can award it to whomever the fuck I want.
234
00:10:39,653 --> 00:10:42,287
Axe, I've been your wingman
for the past three years.
235
00:10:42,289 --> 00:10:44,623
I've been close to the
final table every time.
236
00:10:44,625 --> 00:10:46,425
Yeah, which is another way of saying
237
00:10:46,427 --> 00:10:48,727
you missed the final
table three years running.
238
00:10:49,930 --> 00:10:53,431
You know one of the things that
I really like about the NFL?
239
00:10:53,433 --> 00:10:55,066
The cheerleaders?
240
00:10:55,068 --> 00:10:57,235
Uh, yeah, yeah, when I was 12, yeah.
241
00:10:57,237 --> 00:11:01,305
But I'm all grown now, so I
was gonna say the contracts.
242
00:11:01,307 --> 00:11:04,208
No other league gives fewer guarantees.
243
00:11:04,210 --> 00:11:06,944
You can sign for seven years, $120 million.
244
00:11:06,946 --> 00:11:09,147
Yet you shit the bed,
245
00:11:09,149 --> 00:11:10,448
they cut you in the spring,
246
00:11:10,450 --> 00:11:12,350
you're back knocking on doors again.
247
00:11:12,352 --> 00:11:13,684
So you're cutting me loose.
248
00:11:13,686 --> 00:11:15,786
Well, I wouldn't say it that way, but yes.
249
00:11:15,788 --> 00:11:17,188
For that little...
250
00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:18,289
Hey.
251
00:11:19,992 --> 00:11:21,125
For Taylor?
252
00:11:23,262 --> 00:11:24,962
Everything I measure myself by
253
00:11:24,964 --> 00:11:26,697
has been called into question.
254
00:11:34,106 --> 00:11:35,505
Todd.
255
00:11:35,507 --> 00:11:36,840
This is for you...
256
00:11:40,079 --> 00:11:42,011
...by way of an apology
257
00:11:42,013 --> 00:11:44,214
for putting you in an awkward position.
258
00:11:52,091 --> 00:11:53,590
Do I really look like I need
259
00:11:53,592 --> 00:11:55,225
$5,000 worth of spa treatments?
260
00:11:55,227 --> 00:11:57,359
You look like you wouldn't give yourself
261
00:11:57,361 --> 00:11:59,328
the gift of peace of mind, so I did.
262
00:11:59,330 --> 00:12:01,064
So you're my personal Dalai Lama?
263
00:12:01,066 --> 00:12:03,967
I did spend part of last summer
in the company of Rinpoche.
264
00:12:03,969 --> 00:12:06,769
You know, I could actually
introduce you, if you want.
265
00:12:06,771 --> 00:12:09,238
Why are you here?
266
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,908
I'm playing in the
Alpha Cup tomorrow night.
267
00:12:11,910 --> 00:12:14,210
Ah.
268
00:12:14,212 --> 00:12:16,278
It's that time of year.
269
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,215
It is, and I'd like you
to come, as my coach.
270
00:12:19,217 --> 00:12:21,183
I'll pay you very well for your time.
271
00:12:21,185 --> 00:12:23,586
No. We've done this dance before.
272
00:12:23,588 --> 00:12:25,654
You're gonna want insight into Axe or...
273
00:12:25,656 --> 00:12:28,357
There are lots of villains
at the tournament tomorrow.
274
00:12:28,359 --> 00:12:30,225
Axe is only one.
275
00:12:30,227 --> 00:12:32,861
Look, I want to perform at my best.
276
00:12:32,863 --> 00:12:35,664
And like you said, it's scary
when you feel the pressure.
277
00:12:35,666 --> 00:12:36,965
I can admit that.
278
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,339
I'm reluctant.
279
00:12:44,341 --> 00:12:46,474
I am offering you a challenge
280
00:12:46,476 --> 00:12:49,544
and a chance to redefine
yourself in the industry...
281
00:12:49,546 --> 00:12:50,945
as independent,
282
00:12:50,947 --> 00:12:53,681
separate from Axe in every way.
283
00:12:53,683 --> 00:12:56,384
All the top funds will
see you as a resource,
284
00:12:56,386 --> 00:12:57,685
not as his accoutrement.
285
00:12:57,687 --> 00:12:59,053
If you thought I were that,
286
00:12:59,055 --> 00:13:01,222
you would never have
come through that door.
287
00:13:01,224 --> 00:13:02,222
I know you're not,
288
00:13:02,224 --> 00:13:03,624
because I'm me,
289
00:13:03,626 --> 00:13:06,527
but we both know we don't
work in a rational business.
290
00:13:06,529 --> 00:13:08,629
You never hear "no," do you?
291
00:13:08,631 --> 00:13:11,666
The word is said in my
vicinity on occasion,
292
00:13:11,668 --> 00:13:14,468
but somehow it never really lands on me.
293
00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:16,503
It's clear to me that if there were
294
00:13:16,505 --> 00:13:18,539
any ethically compromised behavior,
295
00:13:18,541 --> 00:13:20,106
you weren't in the middle of it.
296
00:13:20,108 --> 00:13:23,777
Glad as I am to be seen, how do you know?
297
00:13:23,779 --> 00:13:26,613
One... I have never come across
298
00:13:26,615 --> 00:13:29,115
a more meticulous written accounting
299
00:13:29,117 --> 00:13:32,118
of a lawyer's conversations
and interactions than yours.
300
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,555
I... don't know how you find the time.
301
00:13:34,557 --> 00:13:36,956
Not much of a social life.
302
00:13:36,958 --> 00:13:40,694
And two... you were the
only person in this office
303
00:13:40,696 --> 00:13:43,663
who noticed and removed
a compromised employee.
304
00:13:43,665 --> 00:13:46,900
You sat on the honor
committee at Princeton.
305
00:13:46,902 --> 00:13:50,469
You are not in this to
get caught up in some scandal.
306
00:13:50,471 --> 00:13:53,472
In other words, like recognizes like.
307
00:13:55,677 --> 00:13:58,611
But someone as...
308
00:13:58,613 --> 00:14:01,113
keenly sensitive as you
309
00:14:01,115 --> 00:14:03,649
must have noticed the vibrations,
310
00:14:03,651 --> 00:14:07,019
if not the actual sonic
boom, of impropriety.
311
00:14:07,021 --> 00:14:09,955
I have not.
312
00:14:09,957 --> 00:14:12,991
If any of that was
happening, I wasn't privy.
313
00:14:12,993 --> 00:14:16,028
Uh-huh.
314
00:14:16,030 --> 00:14:18,831
Thank you, Ms. Sacker.
315
00:14:24,105 --> 00:14:27,004
I appreciate the offer, but I can't play.
316
00:14:27,006 --> 00:14:29,708
Is that the right word... "can't"?
317
00:14:29,710 --> 00:14:31,610
I'd prefer not to.
318
00:14:31,612 --> 00:14:34,312
But you do know how?
319
00:14:34,314 --> 00:14:35,980
What was your screen name?
320
00:14:35,982 --> 00:14:38,283
Why do you assume I had one?
321
00:14:38,285 --> 00:14:39,917
Your age, skill set,
322
00:14:39,919 --> 00:14:42,386
the fact that everyone here had one...
323
00:14:42,388 --> 00:14:45,422
and that you had a lot
of nights in high school
324
00:14:45,424 --> 00:14:47,625
when all the other kids were either
325
00:14:47,627 --> 00:14:48,793
stuck on their homework
326
00:14:48,795 --> 00:14:50,828
or hanging out under the bridge vaping.
327
00:14:50,830 --> 00:14:54,098
ZachCody892.
328
00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:56,033
I was 12 when I started playing online.
329
00:14:56,035 --> 00:14:59,169
I bet you were one of
those multi-table prodigies.
330
00:14:59,171 --> 00:15:01,405
Sixteen at a time.
331
00:15:01,407 --> 00:15:02,973
But then I quit poker.
332
00:15:02,975 --> 00:15:05,709
Around the time you went to college?
333
00:15:05,711 --> 00:15:07,043
Black Friday?
334
00:15:07,045 --> 00:15:09,045
I started playing live for the first time
335
00:15:09,047 --> 00:15:12,583
against classmates, grad
students, professors.
336
00:15:12,585 --> 00:15:14,985
Oh, so you had to adjust
to the different speed,
337
00:15:14,987 --> 00:15:16,686
different informational fields.
338
00:15:16,688 --> 00:15:19,455
Yeah, I... I did fine live,
339
00:15:19,457 --> 00:15:21,391
but then just moved on to other things.
340
00:15:21,393 --> 00:15:23,660
Moved on?
341
00:15:23,662 --> 00:15:26,596
The whole "my dick is
bigger than yours" thing,
342
00:15:26,598 --> 00:15:28,298
it wasn't for me.
343
00:15:31,936 --> 00:15:34,470
You already knew...
344
00:15:34,472 --> 00:15:36,639
about my entire player history.
345
00:15:36,641 --> 00:15:38,073
That wasn't a guess.
346
00:15:38,075 --> 00:15:41,344
Look...
347
00:15:41,346 --> 00:15:44,113
I need to win this thing.
348
00:15:44,115 --> 00:15:46,649
I put somebody on it early this morning.
349
00:15:46,651 --> 00:15:48,851
I had a feeling, pulled your résumé...
350
00:15:48,853 --> 00:15:52,822
saw some game-theory strengths...
351
00:15:52,824 --> 00:15:56,792
looked into it a little bit more.
352
00:15:56,794 --> 00:15:59,061
How'd you clock that I knew?
353
00:15:59,063 --> 00:16:01,831
The way you listened to my answers,
354
00:16:01,833 --> 00:16:03,165
the cant of your head.
355
00:16:03,167 --> 00:16:05,534
You weren't receiving new information.
356
00:16:05,536 --> 00:16:08,303
Can I convince you...
357
00:16:08,305 --> 00:16:12,874
to try one more time to play?
358
00:16:12,876 --> 00:16:15,610
I'd prefer not to.
359
00:16:15,612 --> 00:16:17,946
That kind of competition made me sick.
360
00:16:17,948 --> 00:16:20,614
It literally brought
on feelings of malaise.
361
00:16:20,616 --> 00:16:22,917
Okay.
362
00:16:24,454 --> 00:16:26,821
Okay.
363
00:16:26,823 --> 00:16:28,756
So, Michaela, the following facts
364
00:16:28,758 --> 00:16:30,358
have come to light.
365
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,994
You have no history of
investing in securities,
366
00:16:32,996 --> 00:16:34,195
but on April 8th,
367
00:16:34,197 --> 00:16:35,796
you invested your entire savings,
368
00:16:35,798 --> 00:16:37,698
$117,000,
369
00:16:37,700 --> 00:16:41,335
in Dassan International Potash stock...
370
00:16:41,337 --> 00:16:45,072
two days ahead of a merger
that caused shares to rise.
371
00:16:45,074 --> 00:16:48,509
Now, are you some kind of potash expert?
372
00:16:48,511 --> 00:16:50,277
No.
373
00:16:50,279 --> 00:16:53,080
Just a potash enthusiast?
374
00:16:53,082 --> 00:16:54,982
What?
375
00:16:54,984 --> 00:16:57,484
I'm sorry.
376
00:16:57,486 --> 00:16:59,552
You're actually the flight attendant
377
00:16:59,554 --> 00:17:02,655
on the corporate jet of the
bank that financed the merger.
378
00:17:02,657 --> 00:17:05,692
You're making it sound
like I did something...
379
00:17:05,694 --> 00:17:08,595
She's making it sound
like I did something wrong.
380
00:17:08,597 --> 00:17:11,964
I thought I was being smart for a change.
381
00:17:11,966 --> 00:17:14,634
You do know trading on inside information
382
00:17:14,636 --> 00:17:17,604
is a crime punishable
by fine and imprisonment?
383
00:17:17,606 --> 00:17:20,172
We're talking about jail?
384
00:17:20,174 --> 00:17:24,377
Um, I'm not sure I should
be sitting here alone.
385
00:17:24,379 --> 00:17:26,445
Time to get Sacker out of there.
386
00:17:30,985 --> 00:17:33,419
Well, if you feel that
you've done nothing wrong,
387
00:17:33,421 --> 00:17:34,787
you should be...
388
00:17:34,789 --> 00:17:36,289
I'm sorry to interrupt.
389
00:17:36,291 --> 00:17:39,325
Uh, Ms. Sacker, you are
needed in Mr. Rhoades' office.
390
00:17:39,327 --> 00:17:40,927
It's urgent.
391
00:17:51,539 --> 00:17:54,940
I just wanted to...
buy an apartment.
392
00:17:59,313 --> 00:18:02,280
Believe me, I get it.
393
00:18:06,353 --> 00:18:09,520
Things are stacked
against us in this city.
394
00:18:09,522 --> 00:18:12,023
Can you tell me this
will all be okay?
395
00:18:12,025 --> 00:18:16,828
Michaela, I-I know you didn't
mean to do anything wrong.
396
00:18:16,830 --> 00:18:20,965
My colleague... Ms. Sacker...
397
00:18:20,967 --> 00:18:24,201
she's got a very brass-tacks
way of looking at this stuff.
398
00:18:24,203 --> 00:18:27,839
She doesn't see other factors...
399
00:18:27,841 --> 00:18:30,475
that good people can step wrong.
400
00:18:32,445 --> 00:18:34,911
I think I know how to help you.
401
00:18:34,913 --> 00:18:36,546
But won't she...
402
00:18:36,548 --> 00:18:38,548
No. I'm her superior.
403
00:18:38,550 --> 00:18:42,052
You give me your cooperation,
404
00:18:42,054 --> 00:18:44,121
I will give you my protection.
405
00:18:44,123 --> 00:18:45,822
And like Earl Anthony
406
00:18:45,824 --> 00:18:49,192
bagging the 7-10 split.
407
00:18:49,194 --> 00:18:51,862
You will?
408
00:18:51,864 --> 00:18:53,296
I will.
409
00:18:53,298 --> 00:18:55,765
We have a real opportunity here.
410
00:18:55,767 --> 00:18:58,201
If Boyd still feels safe anywhere,
411
00:18:58,203 --> 00:19:00,837
it's on his Falcon, his flying cocoon.
412
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:04,107
And we need to be there
when he lets down his guard.
413
00:19:04,109 --> 00:19:07,243
Sacker, Connerty's gonna
be the lead on this,
414
00:19:07,245 --> 00:19:09,412
not because I don't have confidence in you.
415
00:19:09,414 --> 00:19:11,280
Bryan has a particular set of skills,
416
00:19:11,282 --> 00:19:13,082
skills acquired over a long career,
417
00:19:13,084 --> 00:19:14,550
skills that make him...
418
00:19:14,552 --> 00:19:16,719
The object of a
stewardess's desperate lust.
419
00:19:16,721 --> 00:19:18,754
Congratulations.
420
00:19:18,756 --> 00:19:21,657
Where are you registered? I
hope you like cake servers.
421
00:19:21,659 --> 00:19:24,126
I'll go get the SEC file.
422
00:19:30,935 --> 00:19:32,668
Hey.
423
00:19:32,670 --> 00:19:35,137
Oh, wow.
424
00:19:35,139 --> 00:19:37,039
My God, the kids are gonna love that.
425
00:19:37,041 --> 00:19:38,573
Yeah.
426
00:19:40,777 --> 00:19:42,710
Bach, good.
427
00:19:42,712 --> 00:19:45,947
I need names, for a friend.
428
00:19:45,949 --> 00:19:48,250
Yeah. I need a lawyer, absolute killer,
429
00:19:48,252 --> 00:19:52,354
the one you'd use if
you couldn't be your own.
430
00:19:52,356 --> 00:19:54,722
I already did. Thanks.
431
00:19:55,659 --> 00:19:58,726
Was that about Lawrence Boyd?
432
00:19:58,728 --> 00:20:00,628
Yeah.
433
00:20:00,630 --> 00:20:02,496
Why you going deep for him?
434
00:20:04,067 --> 00:20:05,332
He asked.
435
00:20:07,403 --> 00:20:08,937
A lot of people ask you
436
00:20:08,939 --> 00:20:11,905
to use your influence
and resources every day.
437
00:20:11,907 --> 00:20:13,207
You don't always say yes.
438
00:20:13,209 --> 00:20:15,709
I don't like the idea of Boyd going down.
439
00:20:15,711 --> 00:20:18,946
It doesn't... doesn't sit right with me.
440
00:20:21,350 --> 00:20:23,750
That's a good answer.
441
00:20:23,752 --> 00:20:26,687
I believe it, but it's
not the whole answer.
442
00:20:26,689 --> 00:20:28,622
You never give anyone your playbook,
443
00:20:28,624 --> 00:20:31,191
no matter how much you're
rooting for them to win.
444
00:20:31,193 --> 00:20:33,827
It's like this...
445
00:20:33,829 --> 00:20:36,429
Rhoades' attack on Boyd is very public.
446
00:20:36,431 --> 00:20:37,798
It's very loud.
447
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,766
If Rhoades wins, he gets stronger.
448
00:20:39,768 --> 00:20:42,703
If he loses, he's defanged.
449
00:20:43,772 --> 00:20:46,439
Getting there.
450
00:20:46,441 --> 00:20:47,673
And if we'd just met,
451
00:20:47,675 --> 00:20:50,310
I would believe that
that was the whole thing.
452
00:20:53,014 --> 00:20:54,380
The rest is strategy.
453
00:20:54,382 --> 00:20:55,681
It's tactics.
454
00:20:55,683 --> 00:20:58,451
If Boyd is convicted,
I'll be on the inside.
455
00:20:58,453 --> 00:21:00,720
I'll understand what works, what doesn't.
456
00:21:00,722 --> 00:21:02,888
He's like a soldier. We send him up front.
457
00:21:02,890 --> 00:21:04,123
He's a scout.
458
00:21:04,125 --> 00:21:06,892
He brings back Intel, or
he becomes cannon fodder,
459
00:21:06,894 --> 00:21:08,995
and that brings a different kind of Intel
460
00:21:08,997 --> 00:21:12,832
about where we can step and where we can't.
461
00:21:12,834 --> 00:21:16,802
Lawrence Boyd isn't exactly cannon fodder.
462
00:21:19,906 --> 00:21:21,973
Babe...
463
00:21:21,975 --> 00:21:24,876
everyone in the world, apart from you, me,
464
00:21:24,878 --> 00:21:28,580
and the kids is cannon fodder.
465
00:21:38,103 --> 00:21:39,724
_
466
00:21:39,726 --> 00:21:42,527
I'm sorry. I have to deal with something.
467
00:21:42,529 --> 00:21:44,495
See you upstairs in a minute?
468
00:21:44,497 --> 00:21:45,797
Okay.
469
00:22:04,439 --> 00:22:08,861
_
470
00:22:20,933 --> 00:22:22,499
_
471
00:22:26,805 --> 00:22:29,306
You're playing in the Alpha Cup.
472
00:22:29,308 --> 00:22:32,141
It'll do you good... and me.
473
00:22:32,143 --> 00:22:35,845
Consider it a part of those
168 hours you promised.
474
00:22:35,847 --> 00:22:37,714
I can't promise results.
475
00:22:37,716 --> 00:22:39,982
Competition doesn't bring out my best.
476
00:22:39,984 --> 00:22:42,018
Make a session with Dr. Gus.
477
00:22:42,020 --> 00:22:44,486
Maybe he'll help you with
the competition piece.
478
00:22:44,488 --> 00:22:46,388
Okay.
479
00:22:54,733 --> 00:22:57,633
If Bryan lands this case,
I think Crim is his.
480
00:22:57,635 --> 00:23:00,369
But that case could
just as easily break him.
481
00:23:00,371 --> 00:23:03,672
Lonnie is taking the surer, steadier route.
482
00:23:03,674 --> 00:23:05,774
I was gonna ask which way you were leaning,
483
00:23:05,776 --> 00:23:07,576
but you seem almost equally swayed.
484
00:23:10,180 --> 00:23:11,947
Bryan has always expected it...
485
00:23:11,949 --> 00:23:13,481
and worked for it
486
00:23:13,483 --> 00:23:15,951
and Chuck like nothing
else in the world mattered.
487
00:23:15,953 --> 00:23:18,053
And lately he's...
488
00:23:18,055 --> 00:23:20,722
It feels like if this goes the other way
489
00:23:20,724 --> 00:23:22,323
and he gets passed over,
490
00:23:22,325 --> 00:23:24,860
his entire purpose is called into question.
491
00:23:24,862 --> 00:23:27,629
Meanwhile, Lonnie has been sent away,
492
00:23:27,631 --> 00:23:30,965
called back, and never let it derail him.
493
00:23:30,967 --> 00:23:32,300
He's dogged.
494
00:23:32,302 --> 00:23:34,135
And none of this is being colored
495
00:23:34,137 --> 00:23:36,137
by your personal connection to Bryan?
496
00:23:36,139 --> 00:23:38,640
In the past.
497
00:23:38,642 --> 00:23:42,377
This is an advisory
conversation, not "Loveline."
498
00:23:42,379 --> 00:23:46,247
Then you should think about yourself
499
00:23:46,249 --> 00:23:48,348
and the ways in which you could contribute,
500
00:23:48,350 --> 00:23:50,184
given more influence, more control,
501
00:23:50,186 --> 00:23:52,186
more access to decision making.
502
00:23:52,188 --> 00:23:53,620
You're right.
503
00:23:53,622 --> 00:23:55,389
Rhoades won't make you head of Crim,
504
00:23:55,391 --> 00:23:57,158
but his successor may.
505
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,760
Whoever gets it will need a deputy.
506
00:23:59,762 --> 00:24:01,061
That's true.
507
00:24:01,063 --> 00:24:03,930
They say you can't ride
two horses with one behind,
508
00:24:03,932 --> 00:24:06,633
but in today's business
world, it's a smart move,
509
00:24:06,635 --> 00:24:08,335
as long as you're up-front about it
510
00:24:08,337 --> 00:24:09,903
so no one can accuse you
511
00:24:09,905 --> 00:24:12,339
of being disloyal, only intelligent.
512
00:24:12,341 --> 00:24:15,208
Still pretty sharp for an old dog.
513
00:24:15,210 --> 00:24:17,010
Thanks, Dad.
514
00:24:17,012 --> 00:24:19,679
So, you're saying that
you won most of the time,
515
00:24:19,681 --> 00:24:22,048
but it made you sad to
beat your fellow students
516
00:24:22,050 --> 00:24:24,918
in this... college game?
517
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,519
Yes.
518
00:24:26,521 --> 00:24:29,222
But they're losers.
519
00:24:29,224 --> 00:24:30,957
I have to tell you,
520
00:24:30,959 --> 00:24:34,194
I've had 927 hours of therapy.
521
00:24:34,196 --> 00:24:37,430
And that's supposed to make
me sit back on my heels?
522
00:24:37,432 --> 00:24:38,931
Not at all.
523
00:24:38,933 --> 00:24:41,133
It's supposed to give
you useful information
524
00:24:41,135 --> 00:24:42,935
to make this session more productive,
525
00:24:42,937 --> 00:24:44,603
to save you from using techniques
526
00:24:44,605 --> 00:24:46,372
that I might have already parried.
527
00:24:49,377 --> 00:24:51,777
One... this isn't therapy.
528
00:24:51,779 --> 00:24:54,546
Two... I've had more fucking
therapy than you have.
529
00:24:54,548 --> 00:24:57,916
And three... every time you walk away
530
00:24:57,918 --> 00:25:00,118
from doing what makes you feel great,
531
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:03,722
even though it also makes you feel sad...
532
00:25:03,724 --> 00:25:07,525
something inside of you dies.
533
00:25:09,763 --> 00:25:11,629
That's true.
534
00:25:11,631 --> 00:25:13,431
Instead...
535
00:25:14,801 --> 00:25:17,335
...when you feel emotionally messy,
536
00:25:17,337 --> 00:25:20,304
take yourself to where
the boundaries are clean.
537
00:25:20,306 --> 00:25:23,074
It's effective.
538
00:25:23,076 --> 00:25:25,843
It's why we've developed sex workers.
539
00:25:27,914 --> 00:25:29,813
Okay.
540
00:25:29,815 --> 00:25:31,916
Thanks for your time.
541
00:25:35,554 --> 00:25:38,256
You sure, Chuck?
542
00:25:39,859 --> 00:25:41,625
Oh, I have to.
543
00:25:41,627 --> 00:25:44,160
The Churchill World War
II... it's a hell of a set.
544
00:25:44,162 --> 00:25:46,830
I mean, don't get me wrong.
I'm very happy to have it.
545
00:25:46,832 --> 00:25:48,565
I'm sure I'll do very well with it,
546
00:25:48,567 --> 00:25:50,967
but I remember how long you worked on this.
547
00:25:50,969 --> 00:25:52,436
Well, maybe I can circle back
548
00:25:52,438 --> 00:25:54,137
and grab them before they're gone.
549
00:25:55,441 --> 00:25:58,108
If somebody comes in, I have to sell them.
550
00:25:58,110 --> 00:26:01,811
But, you know, a specialty
item like this, at this price,
551
00:26:01,813 --> 00:26:04,714
they'll probably be sold at
the Antiquarian Fair in April,
552
00:26:04,716 --> 00:26:07,150
so, if you do come back,
553
00:26:07,152 --> 00:26:10,387
I'll give it to you at
the carrying cost, okay?
554
00:26:13,825 --> 00:26:15,158
_
555
00:26:15,159 --> 00:26:19,194
"Dear Monty, never give in,
556
00:26:19,196 --> 00:26:22,998
never give in, never, never, never,
557
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,803
in nothing, great or small,
558
00:26:26,805 --> 00:26:29,238
large or petty.
559
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,673
Never give in
560
00:26:30,675 --> 00:26:34,876
except to convictions
of honor and good sense.
561
00:26:37,348 --> 00:26:41,050
And never yield to force.
562
00:26:41,052 --> 00:26:44,886
And never yield to the
apparently overwhelming might
563
00:26:44,888 --> 00:26:47,389
of the enemy."
564
00:26:48,759 --> 00:26:51,426
From the day I passed the bar,
565
00:26:51,428 --> 00:26:53,795
I have said those words to myself
566
00:26:53,797 --> 00:26:56,164
the first morning of every trial.
567
00:26:57,434 --> 00:26:59,668
You can still say the words.
568
00:27:14,884 --> 00:27:16,851
Thank you, Harry.
569
00:27:33,769 --> 00:27:35,503
This is tricky.
570
00:27:35,505 --> 00:27:38,972
There's nowhere to hide it in plain sight.
571
00:27:38,974 --> 00:27:41,574
So, what do you suggest?
572
00:27:41,576 --> 00:27:44,411
A band on the upper thigh, I think.
573
00:27:44,413 --> 00:27:45,879
Do it.
574
00:27:50,552 --> 00:27:53,353
Yeah, so...
575
00:27:53,355 --> 00:27:55,388
right leg, left leg?
576
00:27:55,390 --> 00:27:56,956
You got a preference?
577
00:27:56,958 --> 00:27:58,725
Um...
578
00:27:58,727 --> 00:28:01,528
I'm sorry. This is really, uh...
579
00:28:01,530 --> 00:28:03,496
Could you give me a second?
580
00:28:09,337 --> 00:28:11,603
Actually, could you stay?
581
00:28:12,706 --> 00:28:14,407
Yeah.
582
00:28:16,077 --> 00:28:18,411
Sorry. I-I didn't feel comfortable...
583
00:28:18,413 --> 00:28:19,945
I understand.
584
00:28:19,947 --> 00:28:21,980
Um...
585
00:28:21,982 --> 00:28:25,484
do you know how to do this?
586
00:28:25,486 --> 00:28:30,055
Some parts of the job are pretty intuitive.
587
00:28:46,673 --> 00:28:49,474
Um, I can take it from here.
588
00:28:59,219 --> 00:29:00,952
How does it look?
589
00:29:03,322 --> 00:29:04,822
Passable.
590
00:29:06,158 --> 00:29:07,458
You ready to go?
591
00:29:07,460 --> 00:29:08,358
Mm-hmm.
592
00:29:21,577 --> 00:29:23,307
_
593
00:29:31,283 --> 00:29:32,583
How are ya?
594
00:30:20,864 --> 00:30:22,997
Bold move, coming.
595
00:30:22,999 --> 00:30:24,799
I thought, "What would Axe do?"
596
00:30:24,801 --> 00:30:26,167
Maybe it was a little soon.
597
00:30:26,169 --> 00:30:27,501
Well, you know, you've made
598
00:30:27,503 --> 00:30:29,203
every one of these pricks millions,
599
00:30:29,205 --> 00:30:30,837
and yet they turn away.
600
00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:32,739
When this is over, you'll remind them.
601
00:30:32,741 --> 00:30:33,840
Fuckin' A.
602
00:30:33,842 --> 00:30:35,342
For now, I'm just taking a lap,
603
00:30:35,344 --> 00:30:37,478
marking the hugs and snubs in my big book,
604
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,281
then I'm heading out
of town... Jackson Hole.
605
00:30:40,283 --> 00:30:41,715
Good. Clear your head.
606
00:30:41,717 --> 00:30:43,249
We'll talk when you get back.
607
00:30:43,251 --> 00:30:46,286
Hey, great to see you, buddy.
608
00:30:48,924 --> 00:30:50,957
Always piggybacking on my moves.
609
00:30:50,959 --> 00:30:53,393
Maybe when you
embrace someone, it's a move,
610
00:30:53,395 --> 00:30:54,594
but when I do it,
611
00:30:54,596 --> 00:30:57,330
it's an expression of profound sentiment.
612
00:30:57,332 --> 00:30:59,399
You know my performance coach, right?
613
00:30:59,401 --> 00:31:01,033
Glad you could pitch in.
614
00:31:01,035 --> 00:31:02,635
He needs all the help he can get.
615
00:31:02,637 --> 00:31:04,270
I've won three of those bad boys.
616
00:31:04,272 --> 00:31:06,673
How about you? Zero, right?
617
00:31:06,675 --> 00:31:08,608
'Cause to me it's just a game, Todd.
618
00:31:08,610 --> 00:31:10,210
You take everything so seriously.
619
00:31:10,212 --> 00:31:11,411
Mm.
620
00:31:11,413 --> 00:31:13,680
Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to the Alpha Cup
621
00:31:13,682 --> 00:31:15,514
charity poker tournament.
622
00:31:15,516 --> 00:31:17,616
- Please take your seats.
- Excuse me.
623
00:31:17,618 --> 00:31:20,186
- We're about to begin.
- Time to battle.
624
00:31:23,257 --> 00:31:24,590
Axe.
625
00:31:24,592 --> 00:31:26,325
So, I see you went to go work
626
00:31:26,327 --> 00:31:28,094
for the downtrodden, after all.
627
00:31:28,096 --> 00:31:29,494
I work for myself.
628
00:31:29,496 --> 00:31:31,097
I bet that's what his masseuse
629
00:31:31,099 --> 00:31:32,964
and manicurist tell themselves, too.
630
00:31:32,966 --> 00:31:37,135
Today we're here to raise
max dollars for charity.
631
00:31:37,137 --> 00:31:40,004
And to see who's the biggest
swinging dick on the street.
632
00:31:40,006 --> 00:31:42,341
I'll bet it's not gonna be that guy.
633
00:31:43,844 --> 00:31:46,545
Everyone, take your seats.
634
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:10,234
Paul, this is my dear friend Lawrence Boyd.
635
00:32:10,236 --> 00:32:12,603
Treat him as you would me.
636
00:32:12,605 --> 00:32:14,405
Okay.
637
00:32:14,407 --> 00:32:16,507
Larry,
638
00:32:16,509 --> 00:32:17,841
do what this man advises,
639
00:32:17,843 --> 00:32:20,077
and he will lead you to the promised land.
640
00:32:20,079 --> 00:32:22,079
Thank you.
641
00:32:22,081 --> 00:32:23,747
So, the issue for me...
642
00:32:23,749 --> 00:32:27,517
Never in threes about any of this...
643
00:32:27,519 --> 00:32:29,753
till we've all known
each other a long time.
644
00:32:29,755 --> 00:32:32,389
This is why he's the best.
645
00:32:32,391 --> 00:32:35,125
Okay, I'll leave you two to get down to it.
646
00:32:39,364 --> 00:32:41,631
All humans have stress points.
647
00:32:41,633 --> 00:32:44,000
I'm a man who understands that.
648
00:32:45,737 --> 00:32:48,605
And now it's my pleasure to say,
649
00:32:48,607 --> 00:32:51,308
shuffle up and deal.
650
00:33:10,928 --> 00:33:13,929
Never gone out before the
final table in this thing ever.
651
00:33:15,333 --> 00:33:17,633
I've never called out
the most powerful company
652
00:33:17,635 --> 00:33:19,935
in the energy sector as
a fraud and been right,
653
00:33:19,937 --> 00:33:21,804
so we're even.
654
00:33:38,488 --> 00:33:39,821
Yeah?
655
00:33:39,823 --> 00:33:41,556
Well, it took you long enough.
656
00:33:41,558 --> 00:33:43,225
Anything to report?
657
00:33:43,227 --> 00:33:46,494
They're about to take off.
It's only Boyd on the flight.
658
00:33:46,496 --> 00:33:48,329
Well, he might make a phone call.
659
00:33:48,331 --> 00:33:49,831
She might overhear something.
660
00:33:49,833 --> 00:33:52,233
I'll keep you posted.
661
00:33:52,235 --> 00:33:53,968
Okay.
662
00:33:55,739 --> 00:33:58,305
Billionaire city, boys.
663
00:33:58,307 --> 00:34:00,574
Hey, Todd. How you running?
664
00:34:00,576 --> 00:34:02,743
Oh, my stack's a little bigger than yours,
665
00:34:02,745 --> 00:34:04,211
but what else is fucking new?
666
00:34:04,213 --> 00:34:06,947
Let's say we make this matter.
667
00:34:06,949 --> 00:34:08,315
$500,000.
668
00:34:08,317 --> 00:34:10,317
What do you say, Krakow?
669
00:34:10,319 --> 00:34:12,019
Yeah, let's do it.
670
00:34:16,458 --> 00:34:19,158
Market's closed. What's so fascinating?
671
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,461
She's almost here, the Raya girl.
672
00:34:21,463 --> 00:34:22,696
Ah.
673
00:34:22,698 --> 00:34:23,997
A little swing oil?
674
00:34:23,999 --> 00:34:25,432
You know I do.
675
00:34:25,434 --> 00:34:27,768
Give me a, uh, Michter's Celebration.
676
00:34:27,770 --> 00:34:30,036
It's $800 a glass.
677
00:34:30,038 --> 00:34:32,205
One, please.
678
00:34:32,207 --> 00:34:34,974
He means one bottle.
679
00:34:41,749 --> 00:34:43,283
I'm ahead.
680
00:34:43,285 --> 00:34:44,817
You're not blinking.
681
00:34:44,819 --> 00:34:45,952
What?
682
00:34:45,954 --> 00:34:47,220
You're not blinking.
683
00:34:47,222 --> 00:34:49,822
Well, maybe that'll unnerve him.
684
00:34:49,824 --> 00:34:53,526
Or maybe you'll blink like crazy
when you pick up a good hand.
685
00:34:53,528 --> 00:34:55,127
Take a breath.
686
00:34:59,300 --> 00:35:00,699
Relax your features.
687
00:35:25,992 --> 00:35:27,859
Hundred and fifty.
688
00:35:27,861 --> 00:35:29,193
Call.
689
00:35:41,407 --> 00:35:42,873
One fifty.
690
00:35:45,011 --> 00:35:47,544
Call.
691
00:35:47,546 --> 00:35:49,213
You're drawing?
692
00:35:49,215 --> 00:35:51,882
Against you? Never.
693
00:35:57,823 --> 00:35:59,890
Three hundred.
694
00:36:01,159 --> 00:36:02,359
Seven hundred.
695
00:36:12,270 --> 00:36:13,669
All-in.
696
00:36:19,211 --> 00:36:20,776
Call.
697
00:36:20,778 --> 00:36:22,612
We have two all-ins.
698
00:36:22,614 --> 00:36:25,348
One of these players is
going to go home rich.
699
00:36:25,350 --> 00:36:27,884
The other player is going to go home rich,
700
00:36:27,886 --> 00:36:29,552
but pissed off.
701
00:36:29,554 --> 00:36:32,755
Gentlemen, flip your cards up, please.
702
00:36:34,225 --> 00:36:35,691
Ooh, top two pair.
703
00:36:37,461 --> 00:36:39,896
Unfortunately, I've got these babies.
704
00:36:45,436 --> 00:36:48,337
You went set-mining against me.
705
00:36:48,339 --> 00:36:50,639
I knew if you'd hit, I'd felt you
706
00:36:50,641 --> 00:36:53,242
because you underestimate my strength.
707
00:36:53,244 --> 00:36:54,476
It's who you are.
708
00:36:54,478 --> 00:36:56,578
Well-played, Todd.
709
00:36:56,580 --> 00:36:59,748
You trying to jinx me now
that you got four outs left?
710
00:37:02,152 --> 00:37:03,818
Let's see the river.
711
00:37:07,424 --> 00:37:08,523
Yes!
712
00:37:11,929 --> 00:37:13,595
That's what I'm talking about!
713
00:37:13,597 --> 00:37:15,363
- Yeah!
- Ah!
714
00:37:15,365 --> 00:37:17,165
You owe me half a stick.
715
00:37:20,403 --> 00:37:21,602
So good.
716
00:37:24,441 --> 00:37:26,474
We done betting?
717
00:37:26,476 --> 00:37:28,543
The tournament's still going on.
718
00:37:28,545 --> 00:37:32,012
How about...
719
00:37:34,584 --> 00:37:36,149
...we double the wager
720
00:37:36,151 --> 00:37:38,719
based on my firm outlasting yours?
721
00:37:38,721 --> 00:37:42,355
Well, if it was Dollar Bill,
I'd take it in a heartbeat,
722
00:37:42,357 --> 00:37:44,658
but he's over there with
his thumb up his ass.
723
00:37:48,030 --> 00:37:50,163
Who do you have?
724
00:37:53,602 --> 00:37:55,202
Really?
725
00:37:55,204 --> 00:37:56,669
That?
726
00:37:58,873 --> 00:38:01,241
And you want to double it?
727
00:38:01,243 --> 00:38:02,875
All or nothing.
728
00:38:02,877 --> 00:38:05,011
Banked.
729
00:38:05,013 --> 00:38:09,215
So, as soon as Prianca comes
back from the powder room,
730
00:38:09,217 --> 00:38:10,917
we're gonna roll on out of here.
731
00:38:10,919 --> 00:38:12,785
Take care of our boy.
732
00:38:12,787 --> 00:38:14,887
Ah.
733
00:38:14,889 --> 00:38:17,824
I would normally volunteer
to be his bodyguard,
734
00:38:17,826 --> 00:38:20,827
but there's only so much of me...
735
00:38:20,829 --> 00:38:22,495
to go around.
736
00:38:25,099 --> 00:38:26,532
It's a road bottle.
737
00:38:26,534 --> 00:38:28,867
How do you get up and go to work?
738
00:38:28,869 --> 00:38:31,903
Ah, a little Lenox first
thing in the morning.
739
00:38:31,905 --> 00:38:34,706
I got a guy... patient concierge...
740
00:38:34,708 --> 00:38:37,976
fixes me up with a room and an I.V.
741
00:38:37,978 --> 00:38:41,279
Forty-five minutes, and I
rebound like an undergrad.
742
00:38:41,281 --> 00:38:43,849
Yeah, we did that in nursing school.
743
00:38:43,851 --> 00:38:45,416
I just never thought it...
744
00:38:45,418 --> 00:38:47,185
Hi.
745
00:38:47,187 --> 00:38:48,286
Hi.
746
00:38:49,256 --> 00:38:50,555
Well, have fun.
747
00:38:51,725 --> 00:38:52,791
How could I not?
748
00:39:06,966 --> 00:39:08,552
_
749
00:39:26,178 --> 00:39:29,126
_
750
00:39:55,953 --> 00:39:58,020
And now we're down to heads-up,
751
00:39:58,022 --> 00:40:00,422
Mano a Mano, winner take all.
752
00:40:00,424 --> 00:40:02,624
And then there were two.
753
00:40:02,626 --> 00:40:05,427
Just you and me, hot stuff.
754
00:40:05,429 --> 00:40:06,962
Let's have a five-minute break.
755
00:40:09,433 --> 00:40:10,632
Yeah, Todd!
756
00:40:12,035 --> 00:40:14,035
Tell me you're not enjoying this.
757
00:40:14,037 --> 00:40:15,337
I'm not enjoying this.
758
00:40:15,339 --> 00:40:16,538
You're a killer,
759
00:40:16,540 --> 00:40:18,273
and if ever a guy needed killing...
760
00:40:18,275 --> 00:40:20,041
He's hurting.
761
00:40:20,043 --> 00:40:22,377
I mean inside. Look at him.
762
00:40:22,379 --> 00:40:24,746
You think people were
nice to that guy as a kid?
763
00:40:24,748 --> 00:40:28,482
No, but I really think,
even then, he started it.
764
00:40:34,758 --> 00:40:37,591
Can I get a Stoli Elit
martini with a twist, please?
765
00:40:44,667 --> 00:40:45,699
Wendy.
766
00:40:45,701 --> 00:40:47,067
Lara.
767
00:40:47,069 --> 00:40:48,769
Hi.
768
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,273
You been here the whole time?
769
00:40:52,275 --> 00:40:55,208
I walked in just before
the cards were dealt.
770
00:40:55,210 --> 00:40:58,712
How are you holding up?
771
00:40:58,714 --> 00:41:01,248
Fine.
772
00:41:01,250 --> 00:41:04,017
You don't have to be brave with me.
773
00:41:04,019 --> 00:41:05,919
Divorces are hard.
774
00:41:07,589 --> 00:41:08,889
So are marriages.
775
00:41:08,891 --> 00:41:11,691
Yeah, I've heard other people say that.
776
00:41:13,829 --> 00:41:16,663
Excuse me. I don't want
to miss the main event.
777
00:41:21,869 --> 00:41:24,837
So, Dr. Gus told me a bit
about your conversation.
778
00:41:24,839 --> 00:41:26,839
Therapy is supposed to be confidential.
779
00:41:26,841 --> 00:41:28,974
It's not therapy.
780
00:41:28,976 --> 00:41:32,211
He seems to think that you don't
get something out of winning.
781
00:41:32,213 --> 00:41:34,579
He wanted me to pull you
from this entire event.
782
00:41:34,581 --> 00:41:36,015
You didn't listen.
783
00:41:36,017 --> 00:41:38,617
Eh, he may not be very good at his job.
784
00:41:38,619 --> 00:41:41,120
You love winning.
785
00:41:41,122 --> 00:41:42,387
I do?
786
00:41:42,389 --> 00:41:43,856
Yeah.
787
00:41:43,858 --> 00:41:47,893
I keep going back to why you
quit the live game in college.
788
00:41:47,895 --> 00:41:49,594
I didn't like...
789
00:41:49,596 --> 00:41:53,031
I think it's that you didn't
like that it put the two things
790
00:41:53,033 --> 00:41:55,200
that really fucking matter to you...
791
00:41:55,202 --> 00:41:58,570
winning and being thought of as good...
792
00:41:58,572 --> 00:42:00,372
in direct conflict.
793
00:42:00,374 --> 00:42:02,474
Heads up for the Alpha Cup
794
00:42:02,476 --> 00:42:05,710
in two minutes.
795
00:42:05,712 --> 00:42:07,578
I didn't quit.
796
00:42:07,580 --> 00:42:10,215
They kicked me out, and it hurt.
797
00:42:10,217 --> 00:42:12,383
I couldn't compete, so they eliminated me,
798
00:42:12,385 --> 00:42:16,888
and it filled me with disdain, almost hate.
799
00:42:16,890 --> 00:42:19,490
Hate is nature's most
perfect energy source.
800
00:42:19,492 --> 00:42:22,993
It's endlessly renewable.
801
00:42:22,995 --> 00:42:25,763
I don't want to lean into that feeling.
802
00:42:25,765 --> 00:42:27,931
You know the rider in
the bicycle movie who,
803
00:42:27,933 --> 00:42:29,667
just when he has victory in sight,
804
00:42:29,669 --> 00:42:31,101
takes his hands off the bars
805
00:42:31,103 --> 00:42:33,003
and just holds them out like this,
806
00:42:33,005 --> 00:42:35,105
taking in the sun, gliding,
807
00:42:35,107 --> 00:42:37,941
letting all the other racers
whiz by him just because?
808
00:42:37,943 --> 00:42:40,677
No, I don't. What fucking movie is that?
809
00:42:40,679 --> 00:42:43,280
I always want to be that biker.
810
00:42:43,282 --> 00:42:45,682
Yeah, but you're not.
811
00:42:45,684 --> 00:42:47,885
You and I don't get to glide.
812
00:42:47,887 --> 00:42:50,921
We churn, and we don't get
to become friends with people
813
00:42:50,923 --> 00:42:52,122
we play cards with,
814
00:42:52,124 --> 00:42:53,757
but that's the sacrifice we make
815
00:42:53,759 --> 00:42:56,793
for being able to see what we see.
816
00:42:56,795 --> 00:42:59,328
I know you believe that,
817
00:42:59,330 --> 00:43:01,364
but I choose to take a different lesson.
818
00:43:01,366 --> 00:43:03,366
It's not a choice.
819
00:43:03,368 --> 00:43:06,135
Now go back down to that table.
820
00:43:06,137 --> 00:43:07,871
And if, when you see Krakow,
821
00:43:07,873 --> 00:43:10,373
you think that maybe
he will become a friend,
822
00:43:10,375 --> 00:43:12,208
then go ahead.
823
00:43:12,210 --> 00:43:16,979
Take your hands off the
bars and let him ride on by.
824
00:43:29,026 --> 00:43:31,359
Do you want to know a secret?
825
00:43:31,361 --> 00:43:34,129
Your boss bet me a million dollars
826
00:43:34,131 --> 00:43:36,832
that you would outlast me.
827
00:43:36,834 --> 00:43:40,536
So, you fuck up,
828
00:43:40,538 --> 00:43:42,805
it's a million dollar mistake.
829
00:43:45,875 --> 00:43:47,309
Good to know.
830
00:43:47,311 --> 00:43:49,010
How do you think he's gonna feel
831
00:43:49,012 --> 00:43:50,845
remembering that you cost him a mill
832
00:43:50,847 --> 00:43:52,347
every time he looks at you?
833
00:43:52,349 --> 00:43:54,015
I mean, no pressure.
834
00:43:54,017 --> 00:43:56,017
Don't let me get under your skin.
835
00:43:56,019 --> 00:43:59,287
You have no clue what is under my skin,
836
00:43:59,289 --> 00:44:01,989
and I am certain that a million
dollars in either direction,
837
00:44:01,991 --> 00:44:05,225
to Mr. Axlerod or you,
is entirely insignificant.
838
00:44:05,227 --> 00:44:09,730
And in the continuum, 10,000
years of human history,
839
00:44:09,732 --> 00:44:12,232
this card game and the Alpha Cup...
840
00:44:12,234 --> 00:44:13,568
what does it mean?
841
00:44:13,570 --> 00:44:16,236
By 2090, we'll all be gone,
842
00:44:16,238 --> 00:44:17,371
every last one of us,
843
00:44:17,373 --> 00:44:19,406
unless we've reached the singularity,
844
00:44:19,408 --> 00:44:22,409
and at that point, will money matter?
845
00:44:23,745 --> 00:44:25,579
Yeah, I've seen "Cosmos," too.
846
00:44:37,092 --> 00:44:38,725
Action's on you.
847
00:44:38,727 --> 00:44:40,193
I'm aware.
848
00:44:44,332 --> 00:44:46,466
Four hundred thousand.
849
00:44:46,468 --> 00:44:48,267
I'll call.
850
00:45:01,916 --> 00:45:03,282
Not loving the flop.
851
00:45:04,386 --> 00:45:05,918
Seven hundred.
852
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,285
What do they have?
853
00:45:07,287 --> 00:45:09,321
See bet. I'll call.
854
00:45:09,323 --> 00:45:12,424
Well, we know he's stubborn with a pair,
855
00:45:12,426 --> 00:45:16,094
so either he's way ahead
or he's fucking nowhere.
856
00:45:19,066 --> 00:45:21,299
Check.
857
00:45:21,301 --> 00:45:24,169
One-point-seven
million.
858
00:45:24,171 --> 00:45:26,204
I'm lost.
859
00:45:26,206 --> 00:45:29,374
They might be making
a stop-and-go...
860
00:45:29,376 --> 00:45:31,109
or surrendering.
861
00:45:31,111 --> 00:45:32,777
Call.
862
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,154
Check.
863
00:45:43,156 --> 00:45:45,056
What do you think?
864
00:45:45,058 --> 00:45:47,892
I think Taylor's ahead and has to trust it.
865
00:45:53,299 --> 00:45:55,733
Time.
866
00:45:55,735 --> 00:45:57,768
Can I talk to you for a second?
867
00:45:57,770 --> 00:45:59,170
Excuse me.
868
00:46:10,015 --> 00:46:13,116
I'm not getting a good read on it.
869
00:46:13,118 --> 00:46:15,118
You have any... That's not your issue.
870
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,419
Really?
871
00:46:16,421 --> 00:46:17,688
It seems to me that it is
872
00:46:17,690 --> 00:46:20,123
since that's what stands
between me and winning.
873
00:46:20,125 --> 00:46:23,026
No. Your anger is what stands
between you and winning,
874
00:46:23,028 --> 00:46:25,495
your inability to
De-personalize this competition,
875
00:46:25,497 --> 00:46:26,529
and as a result...
876
00:46:26,531 --> 00:46:27,998
My inability?
877
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,400
I didn't pay you to come
here and criticize me.
878
00:46:30,402 --> 00:46:31,601
I just wanted...
879
00:46:31,603 --> 00:46:33,869
You just wanted me to
knock Axe off his game.
880
00:46:33,871 --> 00:46:37,773
And I came here anyway
knowing that because I...
881
00:46:37,775 --> 00:46:40,076
Well, I guess some part
of me wanted that, too,
882
00:46:40,078 --> 00:46:41,777
and I am going to work on that.
883
00:46:41,779 --> 00:46:43,746
Consider it a job well done.
884
00:46:43,748 --> 00:46:45,081
Now, if you'll excuse me,
885
00:46:45,083 --> 00:46:46,582
I have to go back to the table
886
00:46:46,584 --> 00:46:48,751
and put the sword into Axe's little pet.
887
00:46:48,753 --> 00:46:51,453
Hey, don't worry so much, all right?
888
00:46:51,455 --> 00:46:54,189
It's gonna be great. We'll
celebrate later tonight.
889
00:46:54,191 --> 00:46:56,258
Will we?
890
00:46:58,763 --> 00:47:00,763
Will we have something to celebrate?
891
00:47:00,765 --> 00:47:02,464
What?
892
00:47:02,466 --> 00:47:04,133
I was about to tell you that,
893
00:47:04,135 --> 00:47:06,201
in your confusion about your opponent,
894
00:47:06,203 --> 00:47:08,670
you've become easy to read.
895
00:47:08,672 --> 00:47:10,105
Bullshit.
896
00:47:10,107 --> 00:47:12,374
I've been watching that
thing the entire time.
897
00:47:12,376 --> 00:47:15,144
That's why I came here... so
it wouldn't see me looking.
898
00:47:15,146 --> 00:47:16,845
I know exactly what I'm doing.
899
00:47:25,922 --> 00:47:29,557
This is no place for the meek, cupcake.
900
00:47:29,559 --> 00:47:31,092
All of it.
901
00:47:43,973 --> 00:47:45,773
You don't have a king.
902
00:47:45,775 --> 00:47:48,276
You'd have reraised preflop.
903
00:47:48,278 --> 00:47:50,211
And you're never moving in on a queen
904
00:47:50,213 --> 00:47:51,845
here in case I have the king.
905
00:47:51,847 --> 00:47:55,215
I think you're on a gut
shot, four-five or five-six.
906
00:47:55,217 --> 00:47:57,017
I think you're trying to bully me,
907
00:47:57,019 --> 00:47:59,519
and a bully's devastated
when you stand up to him.
908
00:48:01,791 --> 00:48:03,557
I'm sorry.
909
00:48:05,861 --> 00:48:07,260
Call.
910
00:48:14,936 --> 00:48:16,069
I have ten-high.
911
00:48:16,071 --> 00:48:17,437
God damn it!
912
00:48:18,540 --> 00:48:20,006
Ten-high hero call?!
913
00:48:20,008 --> 00:48:21,774
You skinny fucking freak!
914
00:48:26,114 --> 00:48:28,514
Good for you!
915
00:49:12,559 --> 00:49:14,459
You're a fucking genius.
916
00:49:14,461 --> 00:49:16,594
You gave me the idea.
917
00:49:16,596 --> 00:49:18,529
Now give me your arm.
918
00:49:20,967 --> 00:49:21,966
Mo.
919
00:49:26,172 --> 00:49:29,073
So, I was like, "Who is this person
920
00:49:29,075 --> 00:49:31,909
who couldn't be named and
had to sneak onto the plane
921
00:49:31,911 --> 00:49:33,310
in the middle of the night?"
922
00:49:33,312 --> 00:49:37,013
And then I was like, "Oh, it's Shayleen."
923
00:49:37,015 --> 00:49:38,547
McKinnon?
924
00:49:38,549 --> 00:49:41,885
Tom McKinnon's wife, major
player at the company.
925
00:49:41,887 --> 00:49:44,888
Thomas McKinnon, Managing
Director, Fixed Income.
926
00:49:44,890 --> 00:49:46,956
That must be a common thing...
927
00:49:46,958 --> 00:49:49,558
corporate spouse hitchhiking
on a hop back home.
928
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,627
Right, but what isn't common
929
00:49:51,629 --> 00:49:54,497
is that they hopped into
the slumber cabin together.
930
00:49:54,499 --> 00:49:57,099
That's when I knew I had
to get my butt back here.
931
00:49:57,101 --> 00:49:59,968
Got another girl to be on
standby for the return flight.
932
00:49:59,970 --> 00:50:03,839
It's not great quality.
933
00:50:08,746 --> 00:50:10,045
Not usable.
934
00:50:12,016 --> 00:50:13,982
I thought the microphone
might be too far away,
935
00:50:13,984 --> 00:50:17,419
so I took a little...
936
00:50:17,421 --> 00:50:18,687
initiative.
937
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,172
...you know, some of the tension...
938
00:50:38,174 --> 00:50:39,541
Yeah? Will you help me?
939
00:50:39,543 --> 00:50:41,443
...I'm sure has been building up, yeah.
940
00:50:41,445 --> 00:50:44,778
I want to show you this
getup I have back here.
941
00:51:04,099 --> 00:51:06,767
Does that help?
942
00:51:06,769 --> 00:51:08,702
Usable quality.
943
00:51:08,704 --> 00:51:10,504
Uh, we, uh... we can work with this.
944
00:51:10,506 --> 00:51:13,940
Michaela, you did great, above and beyond.
945
00:51:13,942 --> 00:51:17,043
So, I believe I'm off the hook?
946
00:51:20,749 --> 00:51:23,116
You are. Come on.
947
00:51:29,358 --> 00:51:31,824
It's over, then?
948
00:51:31,826 --> 00:51:34,394
Your part's done, but the case isn't.
949
00:51:34,396 --> 00:51:36,328
You're not calling me. I get it.
950
00:51:38,466 --> 00:51:43,002
I can't have anything brought
up in court that might look...
951
00:51:43,004 --> 00:51:47,640
You know, I checked, and
my trade wasn't illegal,
952
00:51:47,642 --> 00:51:50,442
but I went ahead and
did it for you, anyway.
953
00:51:50,444 --> 00:51:53,145
Good luck with your case.
954
00:51:56,784 --> 00:51:58,350
Yeah. Hold on. Hey, Lara?
955
00:51:58,352 --> 00:51:59,718
Hey, what?
956
00:51:59,720 --> 00:52:02,487
I'm on with a guy from
Wimmershoff Capital Management.
957
00:52:02,489 --> 00:52:05,257
They were there last night,
and they're all banged up.
958
00:52:05,259 --> 00:52:06,825
You make house calls, right?
959
00:52:08,061 --> 00:52:10,462
Starting at $500 a drip?
960
00:52:10,464 --> 00:52:12,363
Starting at $1,000.
961
00:52:12,365 --> 00:52:13,932
We're in business, Mo.
962
00:52:32,685 --> 00:52:33,818
This is yours.
963
00:52:33,820 --> 00:52:35,186
You won it.
964
00:52:35,188 --> 00:52:36,955
I don't have room for it on my desk.
965
00:52:36,957 --> 00:52:39,657
Besides, people keep coming
by to drink beer out of it.
966
00:52:42,462 --> 00:52:44,127
Hmm.
967
00:52:44,129 --> 00:52:46,129
Okay.
968
00:52:46,131 --> 00:52:49,600
But your name is on it forever.
969
00:52:49,602 --> 00:52:51,936
I know you don't want
me to have attachments,
970
00:52:51,938 --> 00:52:54,204
things that get in the way of winning...
971
00:52:54,206 --> 00:52:55,272
but you do.
972
00:52:55,274 --> 00:52:56,739
That woman on the rail...
973
00:52:56,741 --> 00:52:58,842
Krakow's coach... you kept looking at her.
974
00:52:58,844 --> 00:53:01,445
I thought you were trying
to see if she was cheating,
975
00:53:01,447 --> 00:53:02,779
signaling him somehow.
976
00:53:02,781 --> 00:53:04,914
- She wasn't.
- I know.
977
00:53:04,916 --> 00:53:06,649
Later I realized the whole thing
978
00:53:06,651 --> 00:53:08,785
wasn't about you beating Krakow.
979
00:53:08,787 --> 00:53:10,354
It was about breaking him
980
00:53:10,356 --> 00:53:12,689
and having her watch him go on tilt.
981
00:53:12,691 --> 00:53:17,126
Breaking him was the only way to beat him.
982
00:53:17,128 --> 00:53:18,962
Was it?
983
00:53:25,770 --> 00:53:29,538
Mr. McKinnon, I'm sorry
to put you through this.
984
00:53:41,219 --> 00:53:43,386
It's Shayleen.
985
00:53:55,666 --> 00:53:56,999
Turn it off.
986
00:53:58,235 --> 00:53:59,401
Turn it off!
987
00:54:04,574 --> 00:54:05,806
The moaning.
988
00:54:05,808 --> 00:54:08,410
Yeah. I know.
989
00:54:08,412 --> 00:54:09,844
I know.
990
00:54:09,846 --> 00:54:11,679
Would you like a drink, Mr. McKinnon?
991
00:54:11,681 --> 00:54:13,515
No.
992
00:54:13,517 --> 00:54:15,350
You're strong.
993
00:54:15,352 --> 00:54:17,318
I'd need one.
994
00:54:19,288 --> 00:54:21,889
I want to make this divorce hurt.
995
00:54:21,891 --> 00:54:23,958
I'll take the kids and the fucking house.
996
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,894
Hold on to that, Tom.
997
00:54:26,896 --> 00:54:29,697
Be hurt, sure.
998
00:54:29,699 --> 00:54:31,265
Be angry at Shayleen.
999
00:54:31,267 --> 00:54:35,102
She was weak. But be angrier at Boyd.
1000
00:54:35,104 --> 00:54:37,438
He's the responsible party here.
1001
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,706
Yeah. We were friends.
1002
00:54:41,877 --> 00:54:44,311
Spent long weekends at his compound.
1003
00:54:44,313 --> 00:54:48,182
Lawrence Boyd can be friend to no man.
1004
00:54:53,221 --> 00:54:57,356
He's a venal beast of the first order.
1005
00:54:57,358 --> 00:55:00,460
He needs to demonstrate that
he is the alpha of the pack,
1006
00:55:00,462 --> 00:55:03,196
needs to dominate you in his own mind
1007
00:55:03,198 --> 00:55:05,999
by heaving his seed into your bride.
1008
00:55:06,001 --> 00:55:08,534
Jesus fuck.
1009
00:55:08,536 --> 00:55:11,070
He didn't use a rubber?
1010
00:55:11,072 --> 00:55:12,838
Of course you want to kill him.
1011
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:14,474
I know I would.
1012
00:55:14,476 --> 00:55:16,509
Choke him till the light goes out.
1013
00:55:16,511 --> 00:55:19,612
Violation like that
stirs a man to savagery.
1014
00:55:19,614 --> 00:55:21,547
You won't do it, but you want to.
1015
00:55:21,549 --> 00:55:22,848
Isn't that right?
1016
00:55:22,850 --> 00:55:24,617
Yeah, I want to fucking kill him.
1017
00:55:24,619 --> 00:55:28,120
Yeah, but you can't. The
law dictates that you can't.
1018
00:55:28,122 --> 00:55:31,256
And yet that doesn't mean
you have to let him win.
1019
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:35,494
Okay, so, how do I win here?
1020
00:55:35,496 --> 00:55:37,329
Disgrace him.
1021
00:55:37,331 --> 00:55:39,632
Humble him.
1022
00:55:39,634 --> 00:55:41,266
Force him to his knees
1023
00:55:41,268 --> 00:55:44,902
and fuck his metaphorical throat
until he swallows your seed.
1024
00:55:46,573 --> 00:55:48,173
I'm in.
1025
00:55:48,175 --> 00:55:50,041
Boyd's been rigging Treasury bids.
1026
00:55:50,043 --> 00:55:51,510
I'll get you whatever I can.
1027
00:55:56,150 --> 00:55:58,182
Whatever it takes, I'm in.
1028
00:56:02,288 --> 00:56:05,056
I talked to a friend of
mine, a lawyer for the League.
1029
00:56:05,058 --> 00:56:07,525
He back-channeled and got a yellow light.
1030
00:56:07,527 --> 00:56:10,895
NFL thinks it would be
best for all involved
1031
00:56:10,897 --> 00:56:12,063
if you didn't bid.
1032
00:56:12,065 --> 00:56:13,297
Stated reason?
1033
00:56:13,299 --> 00:56:14,598
Public perception,
1034
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,667
recent legal aspersion, 9/11 revelations.
1035
00:56:16,669 --> 00:56:17,768
Fuck!
1036
00:56:17,770 --> 00:56:19,436
But they appreciate your interest.
1037
00:56:19,438 --> 00:56:20,471
Oh, do they?
1038
00:56:27,613 --> 00:56:29,946
You know, when they like my number enough,
1039
00:56:29,948 --> 00:56:31,381
they'll like me just fine.
1040
00:56:31,383 --> 00:56:32,749
You know what we bid before.
1041
00:56:32,751 --> 00:56:35,052
A hundred more than any
team has ever sold for.
1042
00:56:35,054 --> 00:56:36,419
I'll bet a hundred over that
1043
00:56:36,421 --> 00:56:38,321
and send it right to the league office.
1044
00:56:38,323 --> 00:56:39,289
Done.
1045
00:56:41,226 --> 00:56:43,459
These are the books you asked for.
1046
00:56:43,461 --> 00:56:45,896
Oh, great. Thank you.
1047
00:56:45,898 --> 00:56:47,564
These mattered to him a lot.
1048
00:56:47,566 --> 00:56:49,199
Mr. "H" told me to tell you that.
1049
00:56:49,201 --> 00:56:50,567
Good.
1050
00:56:50,569 --> 00:56:52,068
He instructed me to pay cash.
1051
00:56:52,070 --> 00:56:53,936
There's no record of who bought them.
1052
00:56:53,938 --> 00:56:55,171
Thank you.
1053
00:56:58,109 --> 00:56:59,576
This one's signed to Monty.
1054
00:56:59,578 --> 00:57:00,810
General Montgomery?
1055
00:57:00,812 --> 00:57:01,977
Yeah, that Monty.
1056
00:57:01,979 --> 00:57:03,913
Well, you want them here? At the house?
1057
00:57:03,915 --> 00:57:05,280
No. Put them in storage.
1058
00:57:07,785 --> 00:57:10,586
You know what?
1059
00:57:10,588 --> 00:57:12,988
Find all the other signed
first editions for sale
1060
00:57:12,990 --> 00:57:15,791
in the U.S. and in England...
fuck it... everywhere.
1061
00:57:15,793 --> 00:57:19,128
And buy them all, every
single last one of them.
1062
00:57:19,130 --> 00:57:20,895
That'll be expensive.
1063
00:57:23,667 --> 00:57:26,568
Well, then it's a good
thing I'm a rich fucking man.
