00:00:06,297 --> 00:00:08,675
          and know the truth of      
         what he did to my son.

00:00:08,717 --> 00:00:10,844
        Which is steal from him      
            and destroy him.

16

 I could take some pressure off.   

17
00:00:33,908 --> 00:00:37,037
      Axe used his black magic      
   to get my commission squashed.

133
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:50,391
            Now, most of you         

134
00:05:50,433 --> 00:05:53,394
        will be hired back again     
         by the end of tonight,      

135
00:05:53,436 --> 00:05:55,021
     by the new Axe Holding Company 

136
00:05:55,063 --> 00:05:56,564
       under either the Axe Bank     

137
00:05:56,606 --> 00:05:58,858
            or the Axe Asset         
          Management Division.       

138
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:01,778
 Our new structure will be in      
 place by the end of the weekend   

139
00:06:01,819 --> 00:06:03,237
             so we're open           
          for business Monday.       

140
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,990
          You said "most"           
          will be rehired?          

141
00:06:06,032 --> 00:06:07,617
            Good listening.          

142
00:06:07,658 --> 00:06:09,410
         That's right, Ben Kim,      
               like you.             

143
00:06:09,452 --> 00:06:11,704
            But not like....         

144
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:16,584
         Now Wendy is gonna be       
             in her office           

145
00:06:16,626 --> 00:06:17,627
        getting ready to discuss     

146
00:06:17,668 --> 00:06:18,753
          all of this with you       

147
00:06:18,795 --> 00:06:20,213
        at the exit interviews.      

148
00:06:20,254 --> 00:06:22,173
         The world has changed.      

149
00:06:22,215 --> 00:06:24,300
           We have to change.        

150
00:06:24,342 --> 00:06:28,137
             -This way.             
       -We have already changed.     

151
00:06:28,179 --> 00:06:30,723
          Lauren, you're gonna       
         have to choose between      

152
00:06:30,765 --> 00:06:33,351
       Axe Bank and Mase Carbon.     

153
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,561
         You got until the end       
        of the night to decide.      

154
00:06:49,409 --> 00:06:51,786
          [phone vibrating]         

155
00:06:53,454 --> 00:06:55,081
            First priority,          

156
00:06:55,123 --> 00:06:56,582
           form an emergency         
          capital introduction       

157
00:06:56,624 --> 00:06:58,251
             and raise team          
              for the bank.          

158
00:06:58,292 --> 00:07:00,211
     We need some fuckin' deposits. 

159
00:07:00,253 --> 00:07:02,338
         And more than just         
          stimulus checks.          

160
00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:03,548
      Before there's none left,     

161
00:07:03,589 --> 00:07:05,800
            and our bank            
          dies in the crib.         

162
00:07:05,842 --> 00:07:07,802
       Seemed so easy before.       

163
00:07:07,844 --> 00:07:09,345
             Yeah, well,            
        the fucking Goliaths        

164
00:07:09,387 --> 00:07:10,763
       have gobbled it all up.      

165
00:07:10,805 --> 00:07:12,265
          So find me mine.          

166
00:07:16,686 --> 00:07:19,647
     Psychiatrists will tell you    
      reassurance does no good,     

167
00:07:19,689 --> 00:07:21,858
       because once reassured,      
   you are not becalmed for long.   

168
00:07:21,899 --> 00:07:23,943
     Instead, you become trained    
      to need more reassurance.     

169
00:07:23,985 --> 00:07:26,070
         Yeah. But I still          
         look in the mirror         

170
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:27,321
     to make sure my butt is...     

171
00:07:27,363 --> 00:07:28,823
              [Winston]             
        You could just ask...       

172
00:07:29,782 --> 00:07:30,950
            ...somebody.            

173
00:07:30,992 --> 00:07:33,035
               -I'd--               
           -[Taylor] Fine.          

174
00:07:33,077 --> 00:07:35,371
      I'll take this moment to      
      set your minds at ease.       

175
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:36,956
           No matter what           
        the mothership does,        

176
00:07:36,998 --> 00:07:39,125
      we at Taylor Mason Carbon     
       will remain autonomous.      

177
00:07:39,167 --> 00:07:40,460
           You will not be          
         working for a bank.        

178
00:07:40,501 --> 00:07:41,961
        All will be resolved.       

179
00:07:42,003 --> 00:07:43,463
           What about her?          

180
00:07:43,504 --> 00:07:46,466
        You-- I mean Lauren.        

181
00:07:46,507 --> 00:07:48,551
          I didn't mean to          
         just reference you.        

182
00:07:48,593 --> 00:07:50,052
         You're right there         
           [chuckles] so--          

183
00:07:50,094 --> 00:07:51,762
         We all need to stay        
         focused and united.        

184
00:07:51,804 --> 00:07:53,306
 Loyalty is doubly important now. 

185
00:07:53,347 --> 00:07:54,974
           So Lauren isn't          
         going to the bank.         

186
00:07:55,016 --> 00:07:57,643
      She'll stay in IR at the      
      new asset management arm      

187
00:07:57,685 --> 00:07:59,103
      and stay in place for us.     

188
00:08:12,909 --> 00:08:14,660
              Hard Bob?             

189
00:08:14,702 --> 00:08:16,496
              'Lo, Axe.             

190
00:08:16,537 --> 00:08:19,665
         When last we spoke,        
    you'd tendered me a position.   

191
00:08:19,707 --> 00:08:22,627
        Well, now that I find       
        myself at loose ends,       

192
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:24,670
      I was of a mind to claim it.   

193
00:08:24,712 --> 00:08:26,547
          They bounced you          
        out of the government       

194
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:28,216
           because of your          
        connection to Krakow?       

195
00:08:28,257 --> 00:08:30,676
          They did indeed.          

196
00:08:30,718 --> 00:08:32,220
       But during quarantine,       

197
00:08:32,261 --> 00:08:34,222
         I became aware of          
         your new endeavor.         

198
00:08:34,263 --> 00:08:36,015
            So I've boned up         

199
00:08:36,057 --> 00:08:38,267
       on all the latest changes     
          to the banking laws        

200
00:08:38,309 --> 00:08:40,269
         on the off chance you       
           need someone to be        

201
00:08:40,311 --> 00:08:42,438
              your banking           
           compliance honcho.        

202
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:47,360
           Well, get over           
           to our office            

203
00:08:47,401 --> 00:08:49,904
    and get started with my CEO.    

204
00:08:50,655 --> 00:08:52,281
          You got it, Axe.          

205
00:09:04,418 --> 00:09:06,587
         You two seem banky.        

206
00:09:06,629 --> 00:09:08,005
         You feelin' banky?         

207
00:09:08,047 --> 00:09:10,424
             This is...             
          is this trolling?         

208
00:09:10,466 --> 00:09:12,009
        Are you trolling us?        

209
00:09:12,051 --> 00:09:14,053
          He's seeing what          
           we're made of.           

210
00:09:14,095 --> 00:09:16,806
     That I am. And you are made    
      of the stuff of Fort Knox.    

211
00:09:16,847 --> 00:09:19,934
    Stand by. Assignment's coming   
    directly from the high chief.   

212
00:09:23,729 --> 00:09:25,356
       You wanted a reminder;       

213
00:09:25,398 --> 00:09:27,358
        you have a date with        
    a Chelsea tonight. 8:00 p.m.    

214
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,277
              Oh, shit!             

215
00:09:29,318 --> 00:09:30,820
              I forgot.             

216
00:09:30,861 --> 00:09:32,863
         No way I can leave         
           the office now.          

217
00:09:32,905 --> 00:09:34,532
       This one is important.       

218
00:09:34,574 --> 00:09:36,617
     I thought the last one was,    
        but this is crucial.        

219
00:09:36,659 --> 00:09:38,452
           Take dictation.          

220
00:09:40,037 --> 00:09:41,414
          Oh, you mean me?          

221
00:09:41,455 --> 00:09:43,541
         I thought you were         
         gonna enable Siri.         

222
00:09:43,583 --> 00:09:45,668
         Just a type a text         
          to Chelz for me.          

223
00:09:53,092 --> 00:09:54,927
     The sequel to   The Hustler.     

224
00:09:54,969 --> 00:09:56,345
            Color of Money.          

225
00:09:56,387 --> 00:09:58,180
      Yes. One of my roommates      
            from Williams           

226
00:09:58,222 --> 00:10:00,266
          kept watching it          
        over and over again.        

227
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:01,851
        And I asked him why.        

228
00:10:01,892 --> 00:10:03,603
         And he said it was         
         because of the way         

229
00:10:03,644 --> 00:10:05,938
         the power dynamics         
           kept switching.          

230
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:08,065
          And he never knew         
        who was zooming who.        

231
00:10:08,107 --> 00:10:10,443
      Hmm. My college roommates     
       were mostly just trying      

232
00:10:10,484 --> 00:10:12,069
           to make one of           
        those beer harnesses        

233
00:10:12,111 --> 00:10:13,779
     -you put around your head--    
         -Yeah, jocks, yes.         

234
00:10:13,821 --> 00:10:15,781
            But it's the            
     "Who's zooming whom" part.     

235
00:10:15,823 --> 00:10:17,325
        That means something        
           different now.           

236
00:10:17,366 --> 00:10:18,909
           But you want me          
            to be eyes up.          

237
00:10:18,951 --> 00:10:20,453
          I need you to be.         

238
00:10:20,494 --> 00:10:23,122
         Especially in that         
       company at that dinner.      

239
00:10:23,164 --> 00:10:24,582
     And not just at the dinner.    

240
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:26,626
    Then that's where they'll be.   

241
00:10:26,667 --> 00:10:27,627
                 Up.                

242
00:10:34,508 --> 00:10:36,469
             [sizzling]             

243
00:10:41,682 --> 00:10:42,808
         [Chuck] No, no, no,        
            don't do that           

244
00:10:42,850 --> 00:10:43,934
    with your fingers, like that.   

245
00:10:43,976 --> 00:10:45,144
        No, you forget germs?       

246
00:10:45,186 --> 00:10:47,313
      I've earned this carrot.      

247
00:10:47,355 --> 00:10:49,857
      Believe me, you're gonna      
      give me all the carrots.      

248
00:10:51,192 --> 00:10:53,069
        Ah-ha, you have news.       

249
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:56,238
            Signed NDAs.            

250
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,907
          We got the offer.         

251
00:10:57,948 --> 00:10:59,575
        And it's a sweet one.       

252
00:10:59,617 --> 00:11:01,327
              Suh-weet.             

253
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:02,995
        Wendy didn't undersell      
       the value of her shares      

254
00:11:03,037 --> 00:11:04,330
       to Taylor Mason Carbon.      

255
00:11:04,372 --> 00:11:06,415
     Very fair, more than fair.     

256
00:11:06,457 --> 00:11:08,292
         And she's ready to         
        strike a payment plan       

257
00:11:08,334 --> 00:11:09,794
     and write out a check ASAP     

258
00:11:09,835 --> 00:11:11,462
           to finalize the          
         divorce settlement.        

259
00:11:11,504 --> 00:11:13,339
         That's no Cinnabon.        

260
00:11:13,381 --> 00:11:16,008
    That's a sour cream sandwich    
         and I'm not biting.        

261
00:11:16,050 --> 00:11:17,343
        Don't tell me you're        
        balking at the idea         

262
00:11:17,385 --> 00:11:18,844
     of her paying you alimony?     

263
00:11:18,886 --> 00:11:21,305
          I thought we were         
       well past you realizing      

264
00:11:21,347 --> 00:11:22,682
        your worth isn't just       
         measured in dollars.       

265
00:11:22,723 --> 00:11:24,225
        No, no, no gallantry.       

266
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:25,851
     I am past that quaint idea.    

267
00:11:25,893 --> 00:11:27,395
      What I want is leverage.      

268
00:11:27,436 --> 00:11:29,188
       To do my own valuation       
           of Mase Carbon.          

269
00:11:29,230 --> 00:11:30,398
            Use the offer           
           to get me that.          

270
00:11:30,439 --> 00:11:32,817
          You wanna look at         
            their books.            

271
00:11:32,858 --> 00:11:34,819
      I want to crawl into them     
     with my prospector's light.    

272
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:36,529
        And, uh, [chuckling]        
             yeah, well,            

273
00:11:36,570 --> 00:11:38,864
         I don't wanna call         
          it a full audit.          

274
00:11:38,906 --> 00:11:40,825
           Let's just see           
      how they're cookin' 'em.      

275
00:11:40,866 --> 00:11:42,702
 It ain't good for you, brother.   

276
00:11:42,743 --> 00:11:45,162
          You keep at this,         
    you're gonna pull an embolism   

277
00:11:45,204 --> 00:11:48,249
     or send your blood pressure    
    into Alice Kramden territory,   

278
00:11:48,290 --> 00:11:51,377
     to the moon. Don't do this.    

279
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:53,045
        I say as your lawyer        
          and best friend.          

280
00:11:53,087 --> 00:11:55,715
    I hear you and I understand.    

281
00:11:55,756 --> 00:11:58,050
          And at a rational         
           level, I agree.          

282
00:11:58,092 --> 00:12:00,720
         And thank you with         
       an open heart and mind.      

283
00:12:00,761 --> 00:12:04,306
        But also my open mind       
             knows this:            

284
00:12:04,348 --> 00:12:06,142
            you've already          
           got that demand          

285
00:12:06,183 --> 00:12:08,894
            for financial           
         disclosure drawn up        

286
00:12:08,936 --> 00:12:10,563
        to get me the access        
          I just asked for.         

287
00:12:10,604 --> 00:12:11,564
             Don't you?             

288
00:12:11,605 --> 00:12:13,899
        I know my man. Yeah.        

289
00:12:13,941 --> 00:12:15,568
            Doesn't mean            
         I think it's right.        

290
00:12:15,609 --> 00:12:18,195
      Send the damn disclosure.     

291
00:12:18,237 --> 00:12:21,574
       And then I'll grab you       
    a big plate of those carrots.   

292
00:12:21,615 --> 00:12:23,409
               [sighs]              

293
00:12:35,463 --> 00:12:36,964
         I signed for this.         

294
00:12:37,006 --> 00:12:39,049
          I didn't realize          
       what it was when I did.      

295
00:12:48,350 --> 00:12:50,603
           Son of a bitch.          

296
00:12:50,644 --> 00:12:52,772
 You got unplowed fields for me?   

297
00:12:52,813 --> 00:12:54,607
             The wheat's            
        a bit thin, but yes.        

298
00:12:54,648 --> 00:12:56,650
          We look to whence         
        the bank comes from.        

299
00:12:56,692 --> 00:12:58,360
      Go back to check cashing      
          and payday loans          

300
00:12:58,402 --> 00:12:59,945
      that the original company     
            was built on.           

301
00:12:59,987 --> 00:13:01,238
          Not recommended.          

302
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,907
      Seems a little low-rent.      

303
00:13:02,948 --> 00:13:04,867
     [Rian]   So are the margins.     

304
00:13:04,909 --> 00:13:06,619
       But then there's frontier     
         Rapid Growth Markets--      

305
00:13:06,660 --> 00:13:08,454
    Vietnam, Nigeria, Indonesia.    

306
00:13:08,496 --> 00:13:10,623
     Lots of money in places like   
    that looking for a safe home.   

307
00:13:10,664 --> 00:13:12,124
            I like RGMs.            

308
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:13,709
    But what am I supposed to do?   

309
00:13:13,751 --> 00:13:15,711
      Put our people on planes      
      and on video conferences      

310
00:13:15,753 --> 00:13:18,464
       and start negotiations       
      with economic ministers?      

311
00:13:18,506 --> 00:13:21,467
          That's a six months        
          to a year horizon.         

312
00:13:21,509 --> 00:13:23,552
      There is cannabis money.      

313
00:13:23,594 --> 00:13:24,804
                  Hmm.               

314
00:13:24,845 --> 00:13:26,889
                Yes.                

315
00:13:26,931 --> 00:13:28,808
        It's a multi-billion        
            dollar space            

316
00:13:28,849 --> 00:13:31,477
   according to our estimates, as   
   companies in medical marijuana   

317
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:32,978
          are ready to expand        
           into recreational         

318
00:13:33,020 --> 00:13:34,980
          as it gets legalized       
            state by state.          

319
00:13:35,022 --> 00:13:36,982
          Traditional banks         
         have been reluctant        

320
00:13:37,024 --> 00:13:38,609
           to take on and           
         process this cash.         

321
00:13:38,651 --> 00:13:41,529
             Sure, sure.            
        I think I love this.        

322
00:13:41,570 --> 00:13:42,613
         It's got potential.        
           Unfortunately,           

323
00:13:42,655 --> 00:13:43,948
        it's a yellow light.        

324
00:13:43,989 --> 00:13:45,825
        A great opportunity,        
          but not safe yet          

325
00:13:45,866 --> 00:13:48,202
     until such time as federal     
        legislation changes.        

326
00:13:48,244 --> 00:13:50,704
       It wasn't even supposed      
 to be mentioned in this meeting. 

327
00:13:50,746 --> 00:13:52,164
           Yeah, but you did.        

328
00:13:52,206 --> 00:13:53,707
           Send me everything        
            you have on it.          

329
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:04,552
            [door closes]           

330
00:14:07,054 --> 00:14:08,389
             Mr. Prince,            

331
00:14:08,430 --> 00:14:11,058
            I am pleased            
        that my invitation--        

332
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:12,476
             This is an             
          impressive group.         

333
00:14:12,518 --> 00:14:14,603
        I hope the intention        
            is as serious           

334
00:14:14,645 --> 00:14:17,147
      as I was led to believe,      
            Mr. Rhoades.            

335
00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:19,358
       Serious and elevating,       
              I trust.              

336
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,318
              And, uh,              
       call me Chuck, please.       

337
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,695
        And you call me Mike.       

338
00:14:22,736 --> 00:14:23,946
             All of you.            

339
00:14:23,988 --> 00:14:27,199
            Well, welcome           
          to my home, Mike.         

340
00:14:27,241 --> 00:14:29,326
         And to this chapter        

341
00:14:29,368 --> 00:14:31,370
        of a great tradition,       

342
00:14:31,412 --> 00:14:33,539
      the Jeffersonian dinner.      

343
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:36,876
       A further evolution of       
     it anyway, aided by WebEx.     

344
00:14:38,043 --> 00:14:40,212
          Though separated          
          by circumstance,          

345
00:14:40,254 --> 00:14:43,841
   there's no reason our exchange   
      of ideas has to be-- Ah!      

346
00:14:43,883 --> 00:14:46,093
          And we will dine          

347
00:14:46,135 --> 00:14:47,928
        as the founders did,        

348
00:14:47,970 --> 00:14:49,722
        with heritage birds.        

349
00:14:49,763 --> 00:14:52,224
   Has the same unaltered genetic   
        makeup as the turkeys       

350
00:14:52,266 --> 00:14:55,436
   that roam the Shenandoah Valley 
         in Long Tom's day,         

351
00:14:55,477 --> 00:14:58,355
       as my remote emissaries      
        have set up for you.        

352
00:14:58,397 --> 00:15:00,357
      Yes, thank you very much.     

353
00:15:00,399 --> 00:15:02,568
      I'm surprised you're not      
   in a powdered wig and tricorn.   

354
00:15:02,610 --> 00:15:04,528
             Don't think he          
          didn't consider it.        

355
00:15:04,570 --> 00:15:06,113
            [all chuckle]           

356
00:15:06,155 --> 00:15:08,324
      We will honor this custom     
       going back to the days       

357
00:15:08,365 --> 00:15:10,659
           of the founders          
       when leading citizens,       

358
00:15:10,701 --> 00:15:13,370
      both public and private,      

359
00:15:13,412 --> 00:15:17,291
       reviewed and sometimes       
     set the agenda of the day.     

360
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:20,252
           This will be a           
       "one mind" conversation      

361
00:15:20,294 --> 00:15:21,921
     with everyone taking turns,    

362
00:15:21,962 --> 00:15:24,882
        no real interlocution       
     or crosstalk except by me.     

363
00:15:24,924 --> 00:15:26,884
        I will be our guide.        

364
00:15:26,926 --> 00:15:29,261
      And tonight's topic is...     

365
00:15:30,387 --> 00:15:31,764
              Liberty.              

366
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:47,780
           -Liberty, law.           
          -[phone vibrates]         

367
00:15:52,826 --> 00:15:55,412
        Big words to unpack.        

368
00:15:55,454 --> 00:15:57,539
           Either could be          
      a night's work. A week's.     

369
00:15:57,581 --> 00:15:59,375
   It's like trying to understand   
       the difference in tone       

370
00:15:59,416 --> 00:16:01,085
       between   Match Game   and       
            Match Game, PM.          

371
00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:02,586
             -[chuckles]            
      -Well, the key there was      

372
00:16:02,628 --> 00:16:04,630
         which ascot Charles        
         Nelson Reilly wore,        

373
00:16:04,672 --> 00:16:06,298
         but this is not the        
       time to look into that       

374
00:16:06,340 --> 00:16:07,299
          or the question.          

375
00:16:07,341 --> 00:16:09,969
        Again, no cross talk.       

376
00:16:10,010 --> 00:16:12,846
        Um, and we will keep        
       to Chatham House rule.       

377
00:16:12,888 --> 00:16:15,808
         So, uh, you can use        
      any info you glean here,      

378
00:16:15,849 --> 00:16:17,184
      but not for attribution.      

379
00:16:17,226 --> 00:16:19,269
           Can I get a nod          
         of assent to same?         

380
00:16:19,311 --> 00:16:22,022
       -[Vandeveer]   Of course.      
          -[phone vibrates]         

381
00:16:22,064 --> 00:16:24,525
        [Chuck] Uh, premise.        

382
00:16:24,566 --> 00:16:26,151
            -Two ways...            
           -I tried him, but         

383
00:16:26,193 --> 00:16:28,404
         you're the one who         
        sent me this garbage.       

384
00:16:28,445 --> 00:16:32,783
     [Chuck] ...uh, banking laws    
      are a threat to liberty or    

385
00:16:32,825 --> 00:16:35,661
      banks without regulation are   
       the true threat to liberty.   

386
00:16:35,703 --> 00:16:38,664
             First, are we           
          a people at liberty?       

387
00:16:38,706 --> 00:16:40,833
       Then, are we free to bank     

388
00:16:40,874 --> 00:16:42,960
            -how we want?           
       -[Sweeney]   Right, yeah.      

389
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:44,586
     I have some thoughts on this.   

390
00:16:44,628 --> 00:16:46,630
             Um, freedom...          

391
00:16:46,672 --> 00:16:48,465
    Chuck, you need to take this.   

392
00:16:48,507 --> 00:16:50,342
         Let's start with the,       
           uh, premise that--        

393
00:16:50,384 --> 00:16:52,302
      It's a reflex. She calls,     
    I have to answer. It's Wendy.   

394
00:16:52,344 --> 00:16:54,722
               [sighs]              

395
00:16:56,056 --> 00:16:57,599
            We need to talk.         

396
00:16:57,641 --> 00:17:00,853
           -Can't it wait?          
            -You didn't.            

397
00:17:00,894 --> 00:17:04,356
        Uh, folks, I'll need        
           a moment before          

398
00:17:04,398 --> 00:17:06,191
      we continue our colloquy.     

399
00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:10,821
          I'm in the midst          
      of a Jeffersonian dinner.     

400
00:17:10,863 --> 00:17:13,115
            You hit me with          
          a goddamn subpoena.        

401
00:17:13,157 --> 00:17:14,491
       A demand for disclosure      

402
00:17:14,533 --> 00:17:16,076
        as is within my rights.      

403
00:17:16,118 --> 00:17:17,745
         I care not a whit,         
        as you might put it.        

404
00:17:17,786 --> 00:17:19,496
        What I   do   care about        
       is what are you trying       

405
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:20,914
         to get out of this         
        look under the hood?        

406
00:17:22,249 --> 00:17:23,709
             Fair play.             

407
00:17:23,751 --> 00:17:25,794
       Getting what I am owed.      
           Simple as that.          

408
00:17:25,836 --> 00:17:27,838
   We had an independent valuator   
      come up with that number.     

409
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,715
 Our very own Jonathan Mardukas.   

410
00:17:29,757 --> 00:17:31,550
            Who knows what          
           kind of circles          

411
00:17:31,592 --> 00:17:33,510
      your in-house accountant      
            spun him in?            

412
00:17:33,552 --> 00:17:35,512
       No. This is about control     

413
00:17:35,554 --> 00:17:37,222
       over me one last time.       

414
00:17:37,264 --> 00:17:39,224
        Or is it part of your       
       endless pursuit of Axe?      

415
00:17:39,266 --> 00:17:40,559
                -Hmm.               
     -What, you want a Trojan Horse 

416
00:17:40,601 --> 00:17:41,810
            into his books?          

417
00:17:41,852 --> 00:17:43,979
              No plan.              
       Do you want to be done?      

418
00:17:44,021 --> 00:17:45,564
         Then let's be done.        
             Pay me off.            

419
00:17:45,606 --> 00:17:48,358
           Lump sum in the          
            next 48 hours.          

420
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,402
     [scoffs] Forty-eight hours?    

421
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:52,488
       For that kind of money?      

422
00:17:52,529 --> 00:17:54,990
       Or I'll be in first thing     
      next week to take a gander.    

423
00:17:55,032 --> 00:17:56,825
            Or a perusal.           

424
00:17:56,867 --> 00:17:58,285
       Or maybe I'll just take      
    a piece of the company. Hmm?    

425
00:17:58,327 --> 00:17:59,995
 There's no way that's happening. 

426
00:18:00,037 --> 00:18:01,538
     These are reasonable options.   

427
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,123
           It's either the          
       Burt Reynolds Spreader       

428
00:18:03,165 --> 00:18:04,792
        or a go-away pay off.       

429
00:18:04,833 --> 00:18:06,710
           The divorce judge         
         will see that as fair.      

430
00:18:06,752 --> 00:18:08,462
           Because it is.           

431
00:18:20,724 --> 00:18:22,101
                 Hi.                

432
00:18:22,976 --> 00:18:24,144
           Chelz, welcome.          

433
00:18:27,231 --> 00:18:29,900
      I'm so glad you're here.      
            Come with me.           

434
00:18:35,989 --> 00:18:37,491
             [chuckles]             

435
00:18:37,533 --> 00:18:38,700
        I'm sorry I couldn't        
          get away, but...          

436
00:18:38,742 --> 00:18:40,202
       I didn't wanna cancel.       

437
00:18:40,244 --> 00:18:42,121
          More like you're          
        worried people my age       

438
00:18:42,162 --> 00:18:43,539
     have a short attention span    

439
00:18:43,580 --> 00:18:45,415
         and I would forget         
             about you,             

440
00:18:45,457 --> 00:18:47,126
          if you canceled.          

441
00:18:47,167 --> 00:18:49,670
          But don't stress.         
      You've got my attention.      

442
00:18:51,505 --> 00:18:52,464
          At least for now.         

443
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:56,051
           Is this weird?           

444
00:18:56,093 --> 00:18:57,469
       I hope it's not weird.       

445
00:18:58,679 --> 00:19:00,472
        It's a little weird.        

446
00:19:01,557 --> 00:19:02,474
               Cheers.              

447
00:19:03,350 --> 00:19:04,726
               Cheers.              

448
00:19:04,768 --> 00:19:06,645
              I need you to          
             go after gold,          

449
00:19:06,687 --> 00:19:08,605
         gold deposits that is.      

450
00:19:08,647 --> 00:19:11,942
           We get credits for        
         FDIC-insured deposits.      

451
00:19:11,984 --> 00:19:14,945
       But there's a limit of       
          250K per account.         

452
00:19:14,987 --> 00:19:17,072
        So I need you to call       
    everybody on the master list    

453
00:19:17,114 --> 00:19:19,116
      who's got more than that      

454
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:21,618
    and make 'em break down their   
   accounts into multiple accounts 

455
00:19:21,660 --> 00:19:23,412
            of under 250.           

456
00:19:23,453 --> 00:19:24,955
          Put 'em in their          
     wives' names, kids' names,     

457
00:19:24,997 --> 00:19:27,374
      businesses, LLCs, corps.      

458
00:19:27,416 --> 00:19:29,585
             That sounds...          

459
00:19:29,626 --> 00:19:31,086
        well, I'll just say it.      

460
00:19:31,128 --> 00:19:32,838
             Over the line.          

461
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,425
     In our world, you're either    
      driven by greed or fear.      

462
00:19:36,466 --> 00:19:37,843
         If you picked fear,        

463
00:19:37,885 --> 00:19:38,802
          I don't know why          
           you're even in           

464
00:19:38,844 --> 00:19:40,012
       that fucking building.       

465
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:45,559
          [computer beeps]          

466
00:19:45,601 --> 00:19:47,477
        I gotta take a call.        
        So go get creative.         

467
00:19:48,854 --> 00:19:50,522
          Did you get my text?       

468
00:19:50,564 --> 00:19:52,524
          -So who's there?          
         -Chuck's at the head.       

469
00:19:52,566 --> 00:19:54,443
             -Of course.            
          -Ira was next to him       

470
00:19:54,484 --> 00:19:56,028
     and Prince on the other side.   

471
00:19:56,069 --> 00:19:58,155
          -Son of a bitch.          
          -That's what I said.       

472
00:19:58,197 --> 00:19:59,865
         Senator Vanderveer         
        and Governor Sweeney        

473
00:19:59,907 --> 00:20:01,200
         and the rest of them       
        were up on the board.       

474
00:20:01,241 --> 00:20:03,035
          They were sitting         
           down to dinner,          

475
00:20:03,076 --> 00:20:05,621
     but it looked like a major     
     fuckin' initiative to me.      

476
00:20:05,662 --> 00:20:07,122
    There was an empty seat, too.   
        I'm not sure for who.       

477
00:20:07,164 --> 00:20:09,166
 I-- I couldn't see the placard.   

478
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:11,710
     So tell me exactly what it was 
      you overheard Chuck saying.    

479
00:20:11,752 --> 00:20:14,046
         "Premise, two ways.        

480
00:20:14,087 --> 00:20:16,048
            Banking laws            
      are a threat to liberty,      

481
00:20:16,089 --> 00:20:18,008
          or banks without          
           regulation are           

482
00:20:18,050 --> 00:20:19,718
    the true threat to liberty."    

483
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,221
             First, are we           
          a people at liberty?       

484
00:20:22,262 --> 00:20:24,765
           Then, are we free         
          to bank how we want?       

485
00:20:24,806 --> 00:20:26,850
           Yeah, premise.           

486
00:20:26,892 --> 00:20:28,518
    It's a fucking attack on me.    

487
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,062
         I'm gonna Sherlock         
         Holmes this thing          

488
00:20:30,103 --> 00:20:31,188
       until I figure it out.       

489
00:20:44,451 --> 00:20:46,245
                Yeah?               

490
00:20:46,286 --> 00:20:47,913
        [Axe]   I'm calling you       
         as my banking trustee.      

491
00:20:47,955 --> 00:20:50,415
         Seems like your son        
     is having a soiree tonight.    

492
00:20:50,457 --> 00:20:51,917
      And your invite must have     

493
00:20:51,959 --> 00:20:54,294
            gotten caught up         
          in the spam filter.        

494
00:20:54,336 --> 00:20:56,797
           Feels like it's          
       a meeting of my enemies      

495
00:20:56,838 --> 00:20:58,382
         arrayed against me.        

496
00:20:58,423 --> 00:21:01,260
        So I need you to crash      
       and send me dispatches.      

497
00:21:01,301 --> 00:21:03,345
             Copy that.             

498
00:21:03,387 --> 00:21:05,305
        Doc, am I game ready?       

499
00:21:06,598 --> 00:21:08,684
 Like Julius Erving in 76, baby.   

500
00:21:08,725 --> 00:21:10,102
             [chuckles]             

501
00:21:10,644 --> 00:21:11,687
                 In.                

502
00:21:11,728 --> 00:21:13,397
                Good.               

503
00:21:13,438 --> 00:21:15,107
            I know I said,          
           I'd take you to          

504
00:21:15,148 --> 00:21:16,608
 Tom Colicchoi's new restaurant.   

505
00:21:16,650 --> 00:21:18,652
               -Yeah.               
     -But don't be disappointed.    

506
00:21:20,153 --> 00:21:22,614
 I brought Tom Colicchio to you.   

507
00:21:24,574 --> 00:21:26,368
     -Hey, Wags. How you doin'?     
            -[Wags] Chef.           

508
00:21:26,410 --> 00:21:27,786
            Good evening.           

509
00:21:27,828 --> 00:21:30,122
          So this is a dish         
         that I created back        

510
00:21:30,163 --> 00:21:31,790
   when I was at Gramercy Tavern,   

511
00:21:31,832 --> 00:21:33,458
      and I thought I'd revive      
        it for this evening.        

512
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:36,253
        It's a pea purée with       
          a fondue of crab.         

513
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:37,296
         There's some bacon,        

514
00:21:37,337 --> 00:21:38,672
       a little bit of sumac,       

515
00:21:38,714 --> 00:21:40,799
    and pink peppercorns. Enjoy.    

516
00:21:40,841 --> 00:21:42,092
       Chef, you're a genius.       

517
00:21:42,134 --> 00:21:43,468
             Thank you.             

518
00:21:45,512 --> 00:21:47,639
 [sniffs] Hmm. Smell that broth.   

519
00:21:48,223 --> 00:21:49,808
               Uh-mm.               

520
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:51,643
               Wagner.              

521
00:21:51,685 --> 00:21:53,895
   I'm here to get you ship-shape   
       on banking regulation.       

522
00:21:55,314 --> 00:21:56,982
              Hard Bob.             

523
00:21:57,024 --> 00:21:59,151
      I thought the usual whiff     
     of bullshit had dissipated.    

524
00:21:59,192 --> 00:22:03,071
       My mind is a repository      
       of FDIC rules and regs.      

525
00:22:03,113 --> 00:22:04,489
       I don't need any help.       

526
00:22:04,531 --> 00:22:06,408
        But I will certainly        
          ask you if I do.          

527
00:22:06,450 --> 00:22:08,827
       How will fee structure       
     and annual percentage rate     

528
00:22:08,869 --> 00:22:11,830
           calculations be          
       disclosed to consumers       

529
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:15,751
      to ensure compliance with     
   the truth in lending statutes?   

530
00:22:18,545 --> 00:22:21,173
       Let's not bore the lady      
    with these tedious questions.   

531
00:22:21,214 --> 00:22:22,507
            Come with me.           

532
00:22:22,549 --> 00:22:24,760
          I will parry these        
         softballs and more.        

533
00:22:26,011 --> 00:22:27,512
     Let me handle this tinhorn.    

534
00:22:27,554 --> 00:22:29,681
         Why don't you make         
       a TikTok or something?       

535
00:22:31,725 --> 00:22:34,853
      How would you ensure that     
      error resolution policies     

536
00:22:34,895 --> 00:22:36,521
            remain within           
         the guidelines of--        

537
00:22:36,563 --> 00:22:37,856
    Look, you've made your point.   

538
00:22:37,898 --> 00:22:39,524
   I'm lost in the fuckin' weeds.   

539
00:22:39,566 --> 00:22:41,026
       I need you to coach me.      

540
00:22:41,068 --> 00:22:44,196
        But privately, not in       
      front of my lady friend.      

541
00:22:44,237 --> 00:22:45,530
           I will have the          
      documents brought to you,     

542
00:22:45,572 --> 00:22:47,866
     and we can start tomorrow.     

543
00:22:47,908 --> 00:22:49,409
             All right.             

544
00:22:50,786 --> 00:22:53,705
         [Ben] Hey, Wags,           
         can you come down?         

545
00:22:53,747 --> 00:22:57,209
   Look, in business, I've always   
 been a fan of proper regulation. 

546
00:22:57,250 --> 00:22:58,335
       A level playing field.       

547
00:22:58,377 --> 00:23:00,879
     I feed on fair competition.    

548
00:23:00,921 --> 00:23:03,632
    And I feel the same way about   
    my latest venture, Hypercube,   

549
00:23:03,673 --> 00:23:05,300
 which is the digital equivalent   

550
00:23:05,342 --> 00:23:07,511
     of a brick-and-mortar bank     
        for today and beyond.       

551
00:23:07,552 --> 00:23:10,055
        So for the purposes         
        of our conversation,        

552
00:23:10,097 --> 00:23:11,890
     I'll call myself a banker.     

553
00:23:11,932 --> 00:23:13,350
     And as such, I have to say,    

554
00:23:13,392 --> 00:23:14,976
        there must be a limit       
          to the strangling         

555
00:23:15,018 --> 00:23:17,062
         regulation certain         
         factions propose--         

556
00:23:17,104 --> 00:23:18,021
          [Senior] Whoa...          

557
00:23:18,063 --> 00:23:19,398
         Sorry to interrupt.        

558
00:23:19,439 --> 00:23:21,525
          I thought we had          
         plans tonight, son.        

559
00:23:21,566 --> 00:23:24,069
           Must have gotten         
          my dates crossed.         

560
00:23:24,111 --> 00:23:25,320
            -[chuckling]            
        -No, we didn't, Dad.        

561
00:23:25,362 --> 00:23:26,738
            We have none.           

562
00:23:26,780 --> 00:23:29,533
      Marcia, you look radiant.     

563
00:23:29,574 --> 00:23:32,577
        And you look the picture     
          of health, Charles.        

564
00:23:32,619 --> 00:23:34,079
      Oh, that's thanks to me.      

565
00:23:34,121 --> 00:23:35,414
        He's my medical man.        

566
00:23:35,455 --> 00:23:36,915
          Yeah, I keep his          
           meds straight,           

567
00:23:36,957 --> 00:23:38,500
          his rod straighter        
         and his nose clean.        

568
00:23:38,542 --> 00:23:40,335
    Well, that part's up to him.    

569
00:23:40,377 --> 00:23:42,462
        Well, uh, [chuckles]        

570
00:23:42,504 --> 00:23:45,549
      now that you're here, you     
    might as well post up there.    

571
00:23:45,590 --> 00:23:48,802
    Really? No, I-- I don't want    
     to put you to any trouble.     

572
00:23:48,844 --> 00:23:50,262
           Dad, I'm sorry,          
       it's a private affair,       

573
00:23:50,303 --> 00:23:52,431
       but you can get a plate      
           and fall back.           

574
00:23:52,472 --> 00:23:55,434
          And our event has         
      a strict subset of rules.     

575
00:23:55,475 --> 00:23:58,687
        So I'm going to have        
     to insist on your silence.     

576
00:23:58,728 --> 00:24:01,106
     -I'm Helen fucking Keller.     
                -Mmm.               

577
00:24:04,317 --> 00:24:07,195
        Well, Dad, it's great       
         to have you with us.       

578
00:24:07,237 --> 00:24:09,156
             -[chuckles]            
          -I can't believe          

579
00:24:09,197 --> 00:24:10,782
         you fuckin' showed         
         up here uninvited.         

580
00:24:10,824 --> 00:24:12,909
           The only reason          
       I'm not kicking you out      

581
00:24:12,951 --> 00:24:14,995
      is 'cause I can't do that     
   in front of my vaunted guests.   

582
00:24:15,036 --> 00:24:17,122
         Then I guess when          
         it comes to whist,         

583
00:24:17,164 --> 00:24:19,124
      I'm still the one takin'      
          the most tricks.          

584
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:20,625
              [scoffs]              

585
00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:32,596
                So...               

586
00:24:32,637 --> 00:24:34,806
      what are we choppin' up?      

587
00:24:34,848 --> 00:24:39,060
              -[typing]             
          -[phone vibrates]         

588
00:24:39,102 --> 00:24:40,312
              [sniffs]              

589
00:24:40,353 --> 00:24:42,147
             Talk to me.            

590
00:24:42,189 --> 00:24:43,815
           Yeah, Axe, it's          
         the fucking doctor.        

591
00:24:43,857 --> 00:24:46,151
         I got a message for        
        you from the patient.       

592
00:24:46,193 --> 00:24:49,362
        The Prince is takin'        
           it to the bank.          

593
00:24:49,404 --> 00:24:51,114
        Is anybody listening        
            to you there?           

594
00:24:51,156 --> 00:24:53,283
                -No.                
     -Then don't speak in code.     

595
00:24:53,325 --> 00:24:57,162
        I'm saying the Prince       
        is taking it to the--       

596
00:24:57,204 --> 00:24:59,581
       You mean he has a bank?      
            Prince does?            

597
00:24:59,623 --> 00:25:01,082
        Okay, you know what?        
           We're gonna do           

598
00:25:01,124 --> 00:25:02,042
           a quick little           
     hearing test when we meet.     

599
00:25:02,083 --> 00:25:03,001
           No, we're not.           

600
00:25:14,304 --> 00:25:15,764
        [Chuck] I have just         
        received reassurance        

601
00:25:15,805 --> 00:25:18,058
         that Judge DeGiulio        
          is still coming.          

602
00:25:18,099 --> 00:25:19,684
     So are we expected to go on    

603
00:25:19,726 --> 00:25:21,353
       like we're in colonial       
        times until he does,        

604
00:25:21,394 --> 00:25:22,771
          or can we have a          
        regular conversation?       

605
00:25:22,812 --> 00:25:24,689
     No one forced you to come.     

606
00:25:24,731 --> 00:25:26,858
         I-- I have to admit        
       I took pause at having       

607
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:28,860
      a stark raving capitalist     
       here in the first place.     

608
00:25:28,902 --> 00:25:30,362
       But then I listened to       

609
00:25:30,403 --> 00:25:32,656
        some of our esteemed        
        guests and relented.        

610
00:25:32,697 --> 00:25:34,449
         An Attorney General        
        who actually listens.       

611
00:25:34,491 --> 00:25:35,700
    A novel concept for our age.    

612
00:25:41,665 --> 00:25:43,333
           We have to deal          
        with this [sighs]...        

613
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:44,876
              directly.             

614
00:25:44,918 --> 00:25:46,711
 You said, "Yellow light" to Axe. 

615
00:25:46,753 --> 00:25:48,880
 But the research I gave you said 
     clearly that cannabis money    

616
00:25:48,922 --> 00:25:50,674
      is a red light for banks      
           at this moment.          

617
00:25:50,715 --> 00:25:51,841
        We agreed we wouldn't       
           even pitch it.           

618
00:25:51,883 --> 00:25:53,552
      And that was after I said     

619
00:25:53,593 --> 00:25:54,553
       I didn't want to pitch       
       anything bank-related        

620
00:25:54,594 --> 00:25:56,555
       but you said we had to,      

621
00:25:56,596 --> 00:25:58,223
     -so I-- I don't understand.    
    -And now you wanna know what?   

622
00:25:58,265 --> 00:26:00,433
     Why throw the scroogie when    
      you called for the heater?    

623
00:26:00,475 --> 00:26:03,186
       I-- I pitched softball       
     for one season in college.     

624
00:26:03,228 --> 00:26:04,813
          My out pitch was          
        a sinker dropped off        

625
00:26:04,854 --> 00:26:06,648
       the table like a brick.      

626
00:26:06,690 --> 00:26:08,650
     And yeah, if my catcher and    
     I got crossed up like that,    

627
00:26:08,692 --> 00:26:10,318
           I'd expect her           
        to come to the mound.       

628
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:11,736
              As I am.              

629
00:26:11,778 --> 00:26:13,655
         Why give wrong info        
           to the Axe Man?          

630
00:26:13,697 --> 00:26:15,532
     We didn't tell him to buy.     

631
00:26:15,574 --> 00:26:17,909
    Are you working against him?    
            For yourself?           

632
00:26:19,661 --> 00:26:21,413
            I can't help            
          if I don't know.          

633
00:26:21,454 --> 00:26:22,956
          Are you going to          
        make sure Mase Carbon       

634
00:26:22,998 --> 00:26:24,207
          stays independent         
           no matter what?          

635
00:26:24,249 --> 00:26:26,751
    This is the "trust me" piece.   

636
00:26:26,793 --> 00:26:29,212
     As a person? Or as a boss?     

637
00:26:29,254 --> 00:26:31,423
        Like in one of those        
          good sushi places         

638
00:26:31,464 --> 00:26:32,382
          where they won't          
         make substitutions         

639
00:26:32,424 --> 00:26:34,217
        or California rolls.        

640
00:26:34,259 --> 00:26:36,595
     You're in safe hands when      
     I serve you the quail egg.     

641
00:26:36,636 --> 00:26:38,847
        Uh... I'm not working       
             for a bank.            

642
00:26:38,888 --> 00:26:42,267
     Banks are bad. Not good bad    
        or fun bad, just bad.       

643
00:26:42,309 --> 00:26:43,435
             And boring.            

644
00:26:43,476 --> 00:26:46,104
         I give you my word.        

645
00:26:46,146 --> 00:26:48,523
    We'll see what that's worth.    

646
00:26:54,988 --> 00:26:56,740
 Thanks for the intel on Chuck's. 

647
00:26:56,781 --> 00:26:59,117
       I think I'm starting to      
        know what's going on.       

648
00:27:00,952 --> 00:27:02,537
             I owe you.             

649
00:27:05,415 --> 00:27:10,378
         So... I admit it. Yes.      

650
00:27:10,420 --> 00:27:12,297
 The Tanner thing was about you.   

651
00:27:14,424 --> 00:27:16,885
       I just thought, this guy's    
        full of shit. Marketable.    

652
00:27:16,926 --> 00:27:20,555
    But a dime-store Pollock with   
     a full head of greasy hair.    

653
00:27:20,597 --> 00:27:22,807
         And I wanted you to        
      see it sooner than later      

654
00:27:22,849 --> 00:27:24,309
     before you got badly hurt.     

655
00:27:24,351 --> 00:27:26,978
        So I--I exposed him.        

656
00:27:27,020 --> 00:27:29,689
      You'd have seen it within     
       weeks if I did nothing.      

657
00:27:31,858 --> 00:27:34,027
           If that's true,          
         I could see my way         

658
00:27:34,069 --> 00:27:35,403
         to appreciating...         

659
00:27:35,445 --> 00:27:38,948
           it... the intent,         

660
00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:40,909
           but... [scoffs]          

661
00:27:40,950 --> 00:27:42,661
       -There are other ways.       
            -Yeah, now look,         

662
00:27:42,702 --> 00:27:44,454
            I am not saying          
         I was thinking clearly      

663
00:27:44,496 --> 00:27:46,665
        or that I even knew,        
     exactly, what I was doing.     

664
00:27:46,706 --> 00:27:49,000
       But since you mentioned      
          it this morning,          

665
00:27:50,543 --> 00:27:52,587
         you know, I've been        
           chewing on it.           

666
00:27:52,629 --> 00:27:54,673
        So I had to tell you.       

667
00:27:55,882 --> 00:27:57,300
             [knocking]             

668
00:27:57,342 --> 00:28:00,303
         Sorry to interrupt.        
           But I need you.          

669
00:28:00,345 --> 00:28:01,554
       You looking for me, Orrin?    

670
00:28:01,596 --> 00:28:03,556
            Not you. Her.           

671
00:28:03,598 --> 00:28:06,309
          Okay. Well, Wend,         

672
00:28:06,351 --> 00:28:08,895
        you and I will finish       
          this convo later.         

673
00:28:08,937 --> 00:28:11,189
            That we will.           

674
00:28:14,818 --> 00:28:16,778
           You don't have           
          the liquid assets         

675
00:28:16,820 --> 00:28:18,571
          to pay out Chuck,         
         lump sum right now.        

676
00:28:18,613 --> 00:28:22,325
     I can fight off his demand     
      for a week or so, but...      

677
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:24,411
        he's going to get in.       

678
00:28:39,175 --> 00:28:41,970
     I see the trading of blows     
         has begun already.         

679
00:28:42,011 --> 00:28:44,139
           Don't tell me I          
        caught you off guard?       

680
00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:46,266
 I just want to make sure you are 
      ready to parry my attack.     

681
00:28:47,267 --> 00:28:49,060
     Like Louden Swain himself.     

682
00:28:49,102 --> 00:28:50,520
       And I want to make sure      
            you are able            

683
00:28:50,562 --> 00:28:52,313
             to deliver             
       the Solicitor General.       

684
00:28:52,355 --> 00:28:53,732
     He's pretty darn key here.     

685
00:28:53,773 --> 00:28:55,734
    To our own vision quest, yes.   

686
00:28:55,775 --> 00:28:57,736
       DeGiulio will be here.       

687
00:28:57,777 --> 00:28:59,988
     But as to where he'll land,    
        I am less confident.        

688
00:29:00,029 --> 00:29:01,740
          He's formidable.          
         A veritable Shute.         

689
00:29:01,781 --> 00:29:04,576
     I'll get his shoulders down    
        for the three count.        

690
00:29:04,617 --> 00:29:07,036
            Best of luck            
           to you on that.          

691
00:29:17,005 --> 00:29:19,132
         I haven't seen you         
         leave your office.         

692
00:29:19,174 --> 00:29:21,509
     Is that your way of asking     
         if I've had dinner?        

693
00:29:21,551 --> 00:29:23,762
     You're usually more direct.    

694
00:29:23,803 --> 00:29:25,430
           To go see Axe.           

695
00:29:25,472 --> 00:29:26,556
       To tell him that you're      
         choosing Mase Carb.        

696
00:29:26,598 --> 00:29:27,932
      I'm considering his offer     

697
00:29:27,974 --> 00:29:30,643
        to work for Axe Bank.       

698
00:29:30,685 --> 00:29:32,228
               I see.               

699
00:29:32,270 --> 00:29:33,730
   When you factor in your bonus,   

700
00:29:33,772 --> 00:29:35,148
        you'd make less there       
          than you do here.         

701
00:29:35,190 --> 00:29:36,483
           What tempts you          
        about his offer that        

702
00:29:36,524 --> 00:29:37,942
      I won't be able to match?     

703
00:29:37,984 --> 00:29:39,819
             Stability.             

704
00:29:39,861 --> 00:29:41,905
     Working here, we're always     
       fighting for our lives.      

705
00:29:41,946 --> 00:29:43,948
         Don't get me wrong,        
         I love a challenge,        

706
00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:46,201
       the thrill of a big win      
       when we land new money.      

707
00:29:46,242 --> 00:29:48,495
        Oof, it's like hitting      
       your number in roulette      

708
00:29:48,536 --> 00:29:50,914
        and letting it ride.        
     But you keep that up and--     

709
00:29:50,955 --> 00:29:54,083
     You'd rather be the house.     

710
00:29:54,125 --> 00:29:56,294
       You don't ask me a lot       
    about my life before we met,    

711
00:29:56,336 --> 00:29:58,087
          and I like that.          

712
00:29:58,129 --> 00:30:00,632
     I figure your own past is      
     full of difficult memories     

713
00:30:00,673 --> 00:30:02,467
      you'd rather not retread,     

714
00:30:02,509 --> 00:30:04,052
       and you're extending me      
         the same courtesy.         

715
00:30:04,093 --> 00:30:05,929
            You're right.           
        I don't like to pry.        

716
00:30:05,970 --> 00:30:07,222
          But I want you to         
      feel comfortable sharing      

717
00:30:07,263 --> 00:30:08,723
          anything with me.         

718
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,480
      When I was 12 years old,      
         my dad found Jesus.        

719
00:30:15,522 --> 00:30:18,566
     He left a lucrative career     
   in advertising for the pulpit.   

720
00:30:18,608 --> 00:30:20,985
      He said he couldn't stand     
   another day of writing jingles   

721
00:30:21,027 --> 00:30:24,155
      that people could whistle     
        on their way to hell.       

722
00:30:24,197 --> 00:30:28,785
         He wanted to climb         
       Jacob's Ladder instead.      

723
00:30:28,827 --> 00:30:31,788
      He threw our whole family     
    into debt. We lost our house.   

724
00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:35,333
 I worked my way through college, 
       and I still have loans.      

725
00:30:35,375 --> 00:30:37,460
      I appreciate your sharing     
            that with me.           

726
00:30:37,502 --> 00:30:39,838
     But it leaves me wondering     
        what we've been doing       

727
00:30:39,879 --> 00:30:41,464
 this whole time together, then,   

728
00:30:41,506 --> 00:30:43,007
      if you never felt secure      
          or provided for.          

729
00:30:43,049 --> 00:30:45,468
        So maybe I have some        
          trust issues too,         

730
00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:47,971
      but that's not all of it.     

731
00:30:48,012 --> 00:30:50,682
         I don't want to be         
         dependent on you.          

732
00:30:50,723 --> 00:30:54,143
        I can't count on you        
      providing for me forever.     

733
00:30:54,185 --> 00:30:56,312
           That's not fair          
        to either one of us.        

734
00:30:56,354 --> 00:30:59,816
          I need to be able         
       to provide for myself.       

735
00:30:59,858 --> 00:31:03,653
   God never made any sense to me. 
     Neither did heaven or hell.    

736
00:31:03,695 --> 00:31:05,154
         But the markets do.        

737
00:31:05,196 --> 00:31:06,781
         You are punished or        
      rewarded as you deserve.      

738
00:31:06,823 --> 00:31:08,533
    It's not up to anyone's whim.   

739
00:31:08,575 --> 00:31:11,452
    That's the kind of stability    
      I can devote my life to.      

740
00:31:23,381 --> 00:31:26,301
   Let's get into the far reaches   
       of liberty and the law.      

741
00:31:26,342 --> 00:31:28,553
      Marijuana, specifically.      

742
00:31:28,595 --> 00:31:30,847
           Legalization as          
          a form of liberty         

743
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:32,348
    and a source of tax revenue?    

744
00:31:32,390 --> 00:31:35,226
       Or is it a furtherance       
           of moral decay           

745
00:31:35,268 --> 00:31:38,062
     that needs to be curtailed     
        in order to preserve        

746
00:31:38,104 --> 00:31:39,898
         liberty of thought?        

747
00:31:39,939 --> 00:31:42,025
        Let me kick this off,       
   'cause I have something to say. 

748
00:31:42,066 --> 00:31:45,904
 -Legalization, I'm for it, and-- 
   -[Swerdlow] I don't know, man.   

749
00:31:45,945 --> 00:31:47,530
          Say what you will         
        about moral decay...        

750
00:31:47,572 --> 00:31:49,240
            -Excuse me--            
 -But you don't know true freedom 

751
00:31:49,282 --> 00:31:50,867
     until you've gotten behind     
      some government-derived,      

752
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:52,118
        pharmaceutical-grade        
             jump juice.            

753
00:31:53,620 --> 00:31:56,539
         Amphetamines, baby,        
        you know what I mean?       

754
00:31:56,581 --> 00:31:58,958
        Of course you don't.        
             Wink wink.             

755
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,752
        I'm not talking about       
      some sweaty meth cookers      

756
00:32:00,793 --> 00:32:02,670
         wearing rebreathers        
      and hitting up every CVS      

757
00:32:02,712 --> 00:32:05,298
       inside the county line       
       for Sudafed and Drano.       

758
00:32:05,340 --> 00:32:06,716
           No, no, no, no,          
           no, no, no, no.          

759
00:32:06,758 --> 00:32:08,885
      I am talking primo caca,      

760
00:32:08,927 --> 00:32:11,095
            turned out by           
          chemist-vintners.         

761
00:32:11,137 --> 00:32:12,889
    And I, for one, cannot wait     
    to see the ground that these    

762
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:15,600
        high-end grasshoppers       
     break out once it's legal.     

763
00:32:19,395 --> 00:32:21,147
      [Vandeveer clears throat]     

764
00:32:24,817 --> 00:32:26,778
             Moving on.             

765
00:32:26,819 --> 00:32:29,447
          [phone vibrating]         

766
00:32:31,824 --> 00:32:34,285
              [Senior]              
     We used to call it Mary Jane,   

767
00:32:34,327 --> 00:32:36,746
             sometimes tea.          

768
00:32:36,788 --> 00:32:39,123
        But whatever you put        
       in your pipe and smoke,      

769
00:32:39,165 --> 00:32:41,250
    that's what they are arguing    
          about right now.          

770
00:32:41,292 --> 00:32:43,294
              Cannabis?             

771
00:32:43,336 --> 00:32:44,754
     That's what the marketers want 
         you to call it, yeah.       

772
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:46,673
     And the-- the conversation     
          has turned to it          

773
00:32:46,714 --> 00:32:49,342
   as business source or revenue.   

774
00:32:49,384 --> 00:32:51,260
    Who's pro and who's against?    

775
00:32:51,302 --> 00:32:53,179
           Prince is for it.         

776
00:32:53,221 --> 00:32:55,515
        And they keep mentioning     
         DeGiulio is showing up.     

777
00:32:55,556 --> 00:32:57,809
      The federal government's      
         going fully legal?         

778
00:32:57,850 --> 00:32:59,769
       Nah. Is that the thing?      

779
00:32:59,811 --> 00:33:01,396
             [knocking]             

780
00:33:01,437 --> 00:33:04,524
           Try one of the           
         upstairs commodes!         

781
00:33:04,565 --> 00:33:06,275
      And have a little respect     
         for a man with one         

782
00:33:06,317 --> 00:33:08,486
         recently-installed         
           fucking kidney!          

783
00:33:09,988 --> 00:33:11,614
          I gotta get back.         

784
00:33:21,165 --> 00:33:23,126
        [Axe]   Bill, I need you      
         to check on the status      

785
00:33:23,167 --> 00:33:25,420
             of all current          
         marijuana legislation,      

786
00:33:25,461 --> 00:33:28,006
 as well as any public statements 
   made on the subject by Graham,   

787
00:33:28,047 --> 00:33:30,341
       Vandeveer, or Sweeney.       

788
00:33:30,383 --> 00:33:32,301
       And find out what's moving    
       through the federal system    

789
00:33:32,343 --> 00:33:33,845
      right now or might be soon.    

790
00:33:33,886 --> 00:33:35,847
           Call in anybody          
         you'd like to help.        

791
00:33:37,849 --> 00:33:38,933
                Wags!               

792
00:33:41,227 --> 00:33:42,437
   I need your help on something.   

793
00:33:43,730 --> 00:33:45,440
              [growls]              

794
00:33:50,403 --> 00:33:53,865
           Where can I get          
         $25 million, quick?        

795
00:33:53,906 --> 00:33:55,408
       We gonna plan a heist?       

796
00:33:55,450 --> 00:33:56,743
       Should I get Danny and       
         Rusty and the crew?        

797
00:33:56,784 --> 00:33:59,287
             No, really.            
           I need 25. Now.          

798
00:33:59,328 --> 00:34:01,122
       Chuck is going to use        
       the divorce settlement       

799
00:34:01,164 --> 00:34:02,790
     to get a look at our books,    
      and leg over into Axe's,      

800
00:34:02,832 --> 00:34:04,584
      if I don't lump sum him.      

801
00:34:04,625 --> 00:34:06,044
       Can't let that happen        
       because it won't stop,       

802
00:34:06,085 --> 00:34:07,962
             -even there.           
            -It will not.           

803
00:34:08,004 --> 00:34:10,006
     You don't have the ability     
    to lay hands on that amount?    

804
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:12,341
   It's illiquid or tied up in the 
    divorce settlement with Chuck. 

805
00:34:14,218 --> 00:34:15,803
      Could you lend it to me,      

806
00:34:15,845 --> 00:34:18,264
         and use my piece of        
     the company as collateral?     

807
00:34:18,306 --> 00:34:20,391
         I can't be seen as         
      pulling money right now.      

808
00:34:20,433 --> 00:34:22,894
   What about the special trustee, 
     your former father-in-law?     

809
00:34:22,935 --> 00:34:24,312
        -He's a man of means.       
            -No. No way.            

810
00:34:24,353 --> 00:34:25,646
           Makes it worse.          

811
00:34:25,688 --> 00:34:27,148
           Well, you need           
         someone like that:         

812
00:34:27,190 --> 00:34:30,234
      deep pockets and willing      
      to go into them for you.      

813
00:34:30,276 --> 00:34:32,236
             Axe. He'd--            

814
00:34:32,278 --> 00:34:33,696
 I am not comfortable with that.   

815
00:34:33,738 --> 00:34:35,490
           We need to keep          
         Mase Carb separate,        

816
00:34:35,531 --> 00:34:37,241
     because if Axe gets angry,     
    he could trash it for spite.    

817
00:34:37,283 --> 00:34:39,077
    Well, we need to solve this.    

818
00:34:39,118 --> 00:34:40,578
      Otherwise, Chuck will be      
        here Monday morning,        

819
00:34:40,620 --> 00:34:42,080
   in his white Gil Grissom coat,   

820
00:34:42,121 --> 00:34:44,415
       ready to do an autopsy       
          on our business.          

821
00:34:44,457 --> 00:34:46,250
          [computer beeps]          

822
00:34:46,292 --> 00:34:48,419
       Apologies and salutations.    

823
00:34:49,587 --> 00:34:50,922
                Mmm.                

824
00:34:50,963 --> 00:34:52,423
             If it isn't            
        the man of the hour.        

825
00:34:52,465 --> 00:34:54,926
            If that hour were        
           several hours ago.        

826
00:34:54,967 --> 00:34:57,261
           I figured this was        
          better than nothing.       

827
00:34:57,303 --> 00:34:59,764
       I missed the festivities,     
                 I see.              

828
00:34:59,806 --> 00:35:02,350
          Which were spirited        
               at times.             

829
00:35:02,391 --> 00:35:05,019
         Since you're here,         
       Mr. Solicitor General,       

830
00:35:05,061 --> 00:35:08,314
        perhaps you can be of       
    answer to our final question,   

831
00:35:08,356 --> 00:35:11,067
        the path to legality        
            of cannabis.            

832
00:35:11,109 --> 00:35:12,944
           Well, as you know,        
          I can't take a side.       

833
00:35:12,985 --> 00:35:14,946
             United States           
           is my only client.        

834
00:35:14,987 --> 00:35:17,448
      But there is a case looming,   

835
00:35:17,490 --> 00:35:22,161
     and its issues echo many other 
     cases from many other states.   

836
00:35:22,203 --> 00:35:23,746
     But it's a conservative court. 

837
00:35:23,788 --> 00:35:25,915
            So don't we know         
           how it would rule?        

838
00:35:25,957 --> 00:35:27,959
             It is. But as           
          the states' rulings        

839
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,961
       for legalization pile up,     

840
00:35:30,002 --> 00:35:31,254
           the likelihood of         
             the high court          

841
00:35:31,295 --> 00:35:33,131
 changing with the times, grows.   

842
00:35:33,172 --> 00:35:36,092
 It's a living body, adhering to   
 the Constitution, of course,      

843
00:35:36,134 --> 00:35:38,386
        but not deaf to our age.     

844
00:35:38,427 --> 00:35:40,304
       SCOTUS isn't the Vatican.     

845
00:35:40,346 --> 00:35:42,265
         Exactly the theme          
         of our discussion.         

846
00:35:42,306 --> 00:35:45,810
      What are the chances the      
     case goes before the court?    

847
00:35:45,852 --> 00:35:47,979
      Well, I'm not a betting man,   
               but hell,             

848
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:51,274
       if I were, even Ladbroke's    
      doesn't take action on this,   

849
00:35:51,315 --> 00:35:54,527
     but I wouldn't bet against it. 

850
00:36:05,454 --> 00:36:06,539
             Let's eat!             

851
00:36:06,581 --> 00:36:08,249
       Oh, I already finished.      

852
00:36:08,291 --> 00:36:09,792
     He served the main course,     

853
00:36:09,834 --> 00:36:11,210
       and I didn't want mine       
            to get cold.            

854
00:36:11,252 --> 00:36:13,796
         Sorry. But I mean,         
            cold chicken?           

855
00:36:13,838 --> 00:36:15,214
                Bleh.               

856
00:36:15,256 --> 00:36:18,426
      Of course. You're right.      
               Blech.               

857
00:36:18,467 --> 00:36:21,512
       Well, I hope you don't       
       mind watching me eat.        

858
00:36:21,554 --> 00:36:22,889
    Can I get you some more wine?   

859
00:36:24,932 --> 00:36:27,185
          [Tuk] I just have         
          a quick question.         

860
00:36:27,226 --> 00:36:29,770
          This form asks for        
         my department head.        

861
00:36:29,812 --> 00:36:31,314
         Would that be you?         

862
00:36:31,355 --> 00:36:34,025
            And actually,           
        what's my department?       

863
00:36:34,066 --> 00:36:36,277
     Wait, what's my new title?     

864
00:36:36,319 --> 00:36:38,029
        Can I pick it myself?       

865
00:36:39,655 --> 00:36:42,533
         Does my office look        
         any different, Tuk?        

866
00:36:43,659 --> 00:36:46,329
 The tablecloth, the candlelight? 

867
00:36:46,370 --> 00:36:50,958
     Maybe the beautiful, young     
    inamorata sitting right here?   

868
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,377
           Do   any   of these          
            signs tell you          

869
00:36:53,419 --> 00:36:57,840
           that now is not          
            a good time?            

870
00:36:57,882 --> 00:37:00,718
      Let's review some basics.     

871
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,306
          I am the goddamn          
          CEO of Axe Bank.          

872
00:37:05,348 --> 00:37:07,141
          I am neither your         
           department head          

873
00:37:07,183 --> 00:37:10,937
     nor the person you come to     
   with your imbecilic questions.   

874
00:37:10,978 --> 00:37:15,524
    I have much, much bigger fish   
      on my metaphorical plate,     

875
00:37:15,566 --> 00:37:18,027
    and a fucking cold   coq au vin   
         on my actual plate.        

876
00:37:18,069 --> 00:37:20,947
     And nobody likes cold   coq,     
      you know what I'm sayin'?     

877
00:37:24,617 --> 00:37:26,994
         He needs to be made        
        a fucking example of.       

878
00:37:27,036 --> 00:37:28,663
       Don't you run from me,       

879
00:37:28,704 --> 00:37:30,790
            you loathsome           
        little prick squirt!        

880
00:37:31,749 --> 00:37:33,042
            Fucking cunt!           

881
00:37:35,795 --> 00:37:38,631
       Mike Prince and my son       
        are squarely at odds        

882
00:37:38,673 --> 00:37:40,132
      over this ganja business.     

883
00:37:40,174 --> 00:37:41,592
       [Prince] I've heard it       
             from you...            

884
00:37:41,634 --> 00:37:43,261
        ...John Birch Society       
           types before...          

885
00:37:43,302 --> 00:37:44,595
 -What? You've got to be kidding! 
          -...on cannabis.          

886
00:37:44,637 --> 00:37:46,180
      It needs to be legalized      
           and federally.           

887
00:37:46,222 --> 00:37:47,890
      -Yeah. Right on, hophead.     
         -[Prince] Oh, well,        

888
00:37:47,932 --> 00:37:49,267
           -that's great.           
 -[Senior]   It got heated as hell. 

889
00:37:49,308 --> 00:37:51,435
         Barbs and brickbats        
           tossed around.           

890
00:37:51,477 --> 00:37:54,063
     The long and the short it is:   

891
00:37:54,105 --> 00:37:56,691
             Prince kind of          
          kicked Chuck's ass.        

892
00:37:56,732 --> 00:37:58,567
     Meanwhile, all that product    

893
00:37:58,609 --> 00:38:00,236
            can be taxed.           

894
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:01,612
             [clapping]             

895
00:38:03,322 --> 00:38:04,991
       [Senior]   Prince kind of      

896
00:38:05,032 --> 00:38:08,661
          handed Chuck his ass       
        in his own dining room.      

897
00:38:08,703 --> 00:38:11,330
          DeGiulio said it'll        
         come before the court.      

898
00:38:11,372 --> 00:38:12,790
      Both of them seemed to think   

899
00:38:12,832 --> 00:38:14,834
           that was a victory        
            for their side.          

900
00:38:14,875 --> 00:38:17,336
          But I wouldn't invest      
         in cannabis right now.      

901
00:38:17,378 --> 00:38:18,796
         Too much uncertainty.       

902
00:38:20,631 --> 00:38:21,674
              Hold on.              

903
00:38:23,384 --> 00:38:25,303
         That was no fight.         

904
00:38:25,344 --> 00:38:27,972
          That's what they          
         wanted us to think.        

905
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:33,894
      They're in this together.     
   My two enemies have linked up.   

906
00:38:33,936 --> 00:38:36,188
         They're trying to make      
     marijuana money safe to bank,   

907
00:38:36,230 --> 00:38:37,732
              for Prince.            

908
00:38:37,773 --> 00:38:39,608
       He gains these deposits      
            for his bank            

909
00:38:39,650 --> 00:38:41,819
        and crushes mine in         
        the fucking process.        

910
00:38:47,450 --> 00:38:50,661
     [Axe]   Bill, it is federal.     

911
00:38:50,703 --> 00:38:53,497
      Get Bach to find out what     
       existing marijuana cases     

912
00:38:53,539 --> 00:38:55,333
         can be appealed to         
         the Supreme Court.         

913
00:38:55,374 --> 00:38:58,169
      Some laws are gonna change,    
         and we gotta be ready.      

914
00:38:58,210 --> 00:38:59,128
            Is Victor there?         

915
00:38:59,170 --> 00:39:00,087
                Yep.                

916
00:39:03,341 --> 00:39:05,676

           -Taylor and Rian,         

917
00:39:05,718 --> 00:39:07,345

           is going green.          

918
00:39:07,386 --> 00:39:10,639
      That Axe Holding is going     
         all the way green.         

919
00:39:10,681 --> 00:39:13,017
          Set up the leading        
         marijuana companies        

920
00:39:13,059 --> 00:39:16,270
    for pitches, with incentives,   
     to be handled by Axe Bank.     

921
00:39:16,312 --> 00:39:17,980
               Got it.              

922
00:39:18,022 --> 00:39:19,148
        Find out which cannabis      
         companies Mike Prince       

923
00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:21,025
         is pursuing or in.         

924
00:39:21,067 --> 00:39:24,612
       Medical, recreational,       
      CBD, THC, paraphernalia,      

925
00:39:24,653 --> 00:39:25,821
         payment processors.        

926
00:39:25,863 --> 00:39:27,490
   Someone's about to get smoked.   

927
00:39:27,531 --> 00:39:28,741
         You got that right.        

928
00:39:28,783 --> 00:39:30,034
     Whatever he's going after,     

929
00:39:30,076 --> 00:39:31,535
         I'm gonna take it.         

930
00:39:36,749 --> 00:39:37,917
           You're leaving.          

931
00:39:37,958 --> 00:39:39,919
          Yeah, to let you          
           do your thing.           

932
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:41,879
   This night turned into a mess.   
             I'm sorry.             

933
00:39:41,921 --> 00:39:44,465
    I was hoping I could show you   
   that I could be both a bank CEO 

934
00:39:44,507 --> 00:39:47,510
      and a substantial suitor,     

935
00:39:47,551 --> 00:39:50,262
        the kind you'd think        
          long-term about.          

936
00:39:50,304 --> 00:39:53,140
       The kind you'd be proud      
     to introduce to your folks.    

937
00:39:53,182 --> 00:39:55,976
          Instead, I showed         
     a side of myself that was--    

938
00:39:56,018 --> 00:39:58,896
      That was totally baller.      

939
00:39:58,938 --> 00:40:02,650
        I loved watching you        
           ream that beta.          

940
00:40:02,691 --> 00:40:05,694
      I was beginning to worry      
       that you were past it.       

941
00:40:05,736 --> 00:40:08,322
       But you're no lap dog.       

942
00:40:10,116 --> 00:40:11,409
        You're a Rottweiler.        

943
00:40:11,450 --> 00:40:14,537
        [elevator bell dings]       

944
00:40:14,578 --> 00:40:16,247
          Finish up here and        
         have the front desk        

945
00:40:16,288 --> 00:40:18,082
      let me up to your place.      

946
00:40:19,250 --> 00:40:20,918
      I'll be waiting for you.      

947
00:40:32,847 --> 00:40:34,640
                Huh.                

948
00:40:40,020 --> 00:40:41,814
       [incoming call ringing]      

949
00:40:43,482 --> 00:40:45,276
                  Hi.                

950
00:40:45,317 --> 00:40:49,155
       Wend, look, I only half      
           said it before           

951
00:40:49,196 --> 00:40:50,906
    we got interrupted, about uh,   

952
00:40:50,948 --> 00:40:52,950
    why I hated you and Tanner--    

953
00:40:52,992 --> 00:40:54,952
        Let me do this first.       

954
00:40:54,994 --> 00:40:58,080
    Because until it's done, uh,    
    I can't hear anything else.     

955
00:40:58,122 --> 00:40:59,290
         Until what's done?         

956
00:40:59,331 --> 00:41:00,708
                 Chuck.              

957
00:41:00,749 --> 00:41:03,043
          I need his hand           
          out of my pocket          

958
00:41:03,085 --> 00:41:05,629
        and his nose out of--       
            our business.           

959
00:41:05,671 --> 00:41:07,465
             I can give you          
            the long buildup         

960
00:41:07,506 --> 00:41:09,467
       or cut to the punch line,     
               which is:             

961
00:41:09,508 --> 00:41:11,802
        I need you to buy out       
      my shares of Mase Carbon      

962
00:41:11,844 --> 00:41:13,471
           today in cash.           

963
00:41:13,512 --> 00:41:15,139
        And promise to let me       
         buy 'em back at par        

964
00:41:15,181 --> 00:41:16,724
            whenever I can.          

965
00:41:16,765 --> 00:41:18,142
              How much?             

966
00:41:18,184 --> 00:41:20,227
          It's $25 million.         

967
00:41:23,355 --> 00:41:25,065
             [chuckles]             

968
00:41:28,861 --> 00:41:30,529
                Done.               

969
00:41:49,924 --> 00:41:51,467
           I sold to Axe.           

970
00:41:54,178 --> 00:41:56,639
        You agreed not to do        
        that mere hours ago.        

971
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,390
       Did our discussion mean      
         that little to you?        

972
00:41:58,432 --> 00:42:00,184
    I know. But then I realized:    

973
00:42:00,226 --> 00:42:01,519
          We can trust him.         

974
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,521
              You can.              

975
00:42:03,562 --> 00:42:05,314
            You must know           
       that sounds ridiculous.      

976
00:42:05,356 --> 00:42:07,024
         How can I suddenly         
             trust him?             

977
00:42:07,066 --> 00:42:09,527
       Because he wouldn't do       
        anything to hurt me.        

978
00:42:09,568 --> 00:42:13,697
   And I know I'm the only person   
    in the world that's true of.    

979
00:42:13,739 --> 00:42:16,283
        He's hurt you before        
        when he's needed to.        

980
00:42:16,325 --> 00:42:17,618
               He did.              

981
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:19,036
        But I understand why.       

982
00:42:24,250 --> 00:42:26,877
      And things are different      
           between us now.          

983
00:42:34,218 --> 00:42:35,761
               I see.               

984
00:42:38,013 --> 00:42:39,557
    In that case, I'll affirm it.   

985
00:42:42,434 --> 00:42:44,895
                Good.               

986
00:42:44,937 --> 00:42:46,689
   I'm glad to hear you say that.   

987
00:43:11,297 --> 00:43:13,132
            Have you made           
         your decision yet?         

988
00:43:13,173 --> 00:43:15,342
             Still torn.            

989
00:43:15,384 --> 00:43:18,262
        I have been thinking        
        about what you said.        

990
00:43:19,972 --> 00:43:22,516
    But I believe I can do both,    

991
00:43:22,558 --> 00:43:24,852
   handle the bank and Mase Carb.   

992
00:43:24,893 --> 00:43:26,854
    I'd like to pitch it to Axe.    

993
00:43:28,564 --> 00:43:30,941
      Well, then, technically,      
       you still work for me.       

994
00:43:30,983 --> 00:43:33,110
         So I have the power        
             to do this:            

995
00:43:33,152 --> 00:43:34,278
            You're fired.           

996
00:43:38,574 --> 00:43:40,284
        I'll go to Axe, then.       

997
00:43:40,326 --> 00:43:42,202
     I'll get him to back me up     
        and you know he will.       

998
00:43:42,244 --> 00:43:44,246
    IR girls are growing on trees   
        out there these days.       

999
00:43:44,288 --> 00:43:48,459
     How can you be so spiteful?    

1000
00:43:48,500 --> 00:43:49,960
     Where is this coming from?     

1001
00:43:50,002 --> 00:43:51,629
         You told me about          
         your trust issues.         

1002
00:43:51,670 --> 00:43:53,505
    Now I'll tell you about mine.   

1003
00:43:53,547 --> 00:43:55,341
     Every time I trust someone     
   close to me to make a decision, 

1004
00:43:55,382 --> 00:43:56,925
    they choose to fuck me over.    

1005
00:43:56,967 --> 00:43:58,927
    I thought you were different.   
            I was wrong.            

1006
00:43:58,969 --> 00:44:00,179
      It's that simple to you?      

1007
00:44:00,220 --> 00:44:01,680
     Yes, it is. You made it so.    

1008
00:44:03,349 --> 00:44:04,892
        I'm not torn anymore.       

1009
00:44:04,933 --> 00:44:06,352
             Not at all.            

1010
00:44:07,603 --> 00:44:09,021
 If that's how you feel about me   

1011
00:44:09,063 --> 00:44:11,148
          after everything          
        we've built together,       

1012
00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:12,983
        then it's all clear.        

1013
00:44:13,025 --> 00:44:14,068
               [sighs]              

1014
00:44:14,109 --> 00:44:15,527
      Maybe for the first time.     

1015
00:44:15,569 --> 00:44:17,863
          Well, I'm glad I          
      could elucidate for you.      

1016
00:44:17,905 --> 00:44:21,492
      You talk a big game about     
         worshipping logic,         

1017
00:44:21,533 --> 00:44:24,286
   clean, emotionless simplicity.   

1018
00:44:24,328 --> 00:44:28,248
       But every move you make      
     comes from a personal pain     

1019
00:44:28,290 --> 00:44:30,918
         so deep you can't          
         even recognize it.         

1020
00:44:33,629 --> 00:44:36,590
     Stay out of the apartment      
     until I clear my shit out.     

1021
00:44:49,353 --> 00:44:51,188
             We did it.             

1022
00:44:51,230 --> 00:44:54,024
      All these people are going    
     to push our agenda forward.    

1023
00:44:54,066 --> 00:44:55,526
           They texted me.          

1024
00:44:55,567 --> 00:44:58,946
       I know it is so because      
          I can almost feel         

1025
00:44:58,987 --> 00:45:01,907
       that bit of melancholy       
     that comes on the precipice    

1026
00:45:01,949 --> 00:45:04,326
        of momentous success.       

1027
00:45:04,368 --> 00:45:07,037
       Comes on the precipice       
          of failure, too.          

1028
00:45:07,621 --> 00:45:09,581
                True.               

1029
00:45:14,044 --> 00:45:15,838
 That argument was a nice touch.   

1030
00:45:15,879 --> 00:45:18,215
             Convincing.            
        Almost felt personal.       

1031
00:45:18,257 --> 00:45:19,299
             To sell it.            

1032
00:45:19,341 --> 00:45:21,093
             Ah. Ah-ah.             

1033
00:45:24,221 --> 00:45:26,432
      Oh, morning, sweetheart.      

1034
00:45:26,473 --> 00:45:28,100
          You're up early.          

1035
00:45:28,142 --> 00:45:29,977
      Hi, Dad. Couldn't sleep.      

1036
00:45:30,018 --> 00:45:32,396
            Oh. Hey, uh,            
         this is Mr. Prince.        

1037
00:45:32,438 --> 00:45:34,064
            Call me Mike.           

1038
00:45:34,106 --> 00:45:35,315
               Hello.               

1039
00:45:35,357 --> 00:45:37,317
         What's that smell?         

1040
00:45:37,359 --> 00:45:40,571
          Remnants of your          
        grandfather's cigar.        

1041
00:45:40,612 --> 00:45:42,865
            -You hungry?            
               -Mm-hm.              

1042
00:45:42,906 --> 00:45:44,575
                Good.               

1043
00:48:09,803 --> 00:48:14,224
             [laughing]             

1044
00:48:34,828 --> 00:48:36,079
            That's yours.           

1045
00:48:57,893 --> 00:48:59,519
              [groans]              

1046

        ["I Want Everything"

1047
00:49:16,703 --> 00:49:18,288
               [sighs]              

1048
00:49:24,378 --> 00:49:25,796
            [Wendy]   Hey.            

1049
00:49:25,837 --> 00:49:27,464
                Hey.                

1050
00:49:32,010 --> 00:49:34,429
       You were right earlier.      

1051
00:49:36,056 --> 00:49:38,767
        It's, um, it's true.        

1052
00:49:38,809 --> 00:49:41,770
        I was trying to ruin        
        Tanner in your eyes.        

1053
00:49:47,943 --> 00:49:51,446
     But not as a favor to you,     

1054
00:49:51,488 --> 00:49:54,658
        or to try to show you       
         something about him,       

1055
00:49:58,996 --> 00:50:00,497
         but because of you.        

1056
00:50:03,500 --> 00:50:06,003
        Because I couldn't stand     
          you being with him.        

1057
00:50:12,009 --> 00:50:13,593
             Or anyone.             

1058
00:50:16,722 --> 00:50:18,515
          I can't stand it.         

1059
00:50:23,228 --> 00:50:25,188
          You don't want me         
       to be all alone though.      

1060
00:50:27,983 --> 00:50:30,027
        You can't want that.        

1061
00:50:33,572 --> 00:50:35,323
                 No.                

1062
00:50:36,241 --> 00:50:38,201
              I do not.             

1063
00:50:40,746 --> 00:50:43,081
           That's what I'm          
       experiencing right now,      

1064
00:50:43,123 --> 00:50:45,042
   and it's making me realize it.   

1065
00:50:53,759 --> 00:50:55,343
               I know.              

1066
00:50:59,181 --> 00:51:02,768
      I look at it... honestly,     

1067
00:51:02,809 --> 00:51:04,770
        but I've never allowed      
       myself to really think,      

1068
00:51:04,811 --> 00:51:07,939
       I feel the same things       
         when I look at you.        

1069
00:51:10,942 --> 00:51:13,945
         I want everything...      

1070
00:51:15,530 --> 00:51:18,408
        I've waited so long         
        to hear those words.        

1071
00:51:22,287 --> 00:51:24,331
             [chuckles]             

1072
00:51:38,303 --> 00:51:42,265
             I wanna speak          
           in holy tongues          

1073
00:51:44,768 --> 00:51:48,271
              I wanna cuss          
         and run the streets        

1074
00:51:50,982 --> 00:51:54,361
             I wanna doubt          
          what I can't hold         

1075
00:51:56,488 --> 00:52:00,075
              Then tell God         
            that I believe
