00:00:07,064 --> 00:00:09,386
Previously on Billions...
2
00:00:09,388 --> 00:00:10,595
Yee!
3
00:00:12,696 --> 00:00:14,322
Ah, it's a road bottle.
4
00:00:14,324 --> 00:00:15,638
How do you get up and go to work?
5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,039
Patient concierge...
6
00:00:17,041 --> 00:00:19,768
Fixes me up with a room and an I.V.
7
00:00:19,770 --> 00:00:22,656
Forty-five minutes, and I
rebound like an undergrad.
8
00:00:22,658 --> 00:00:23,980
I'm sending you somewhere.
9
00:00:23,982 --> 00:00:25,411
Please, not rehab.
10
00:00:25,413 --> 00:00:27,088
No.
11
00:00:27,090 --> 00:00:28,131
I need help.
12
00:00:30,437 --> 00:00:32,911
Sandicot's downtown is
ripe for redevelopment.
13
00:00:32,913 --> 00:00:36,045
Why would I ever put any of my money
14
00:00:36,047 --> 00:00:37,616
in your corner of the state?
15
00:00:37,618 --> 00:00:40,588
I don't expect you to do this
deal as a favor to my uncle.
16
00:00:40,590 --> 00:00:44,115
I expect you to do it
because of the casino.
17
00:00:44,117 --> 00:00:44,837
Look, I don't think I'm gonna be able
18
00:00:44,839 --> 00:00:47,757
to help you get Boyd. I want to, but...
19
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:49,191
Am I going to have to wear a wire?
20
00:00:49,193 --> 00:00:52,046
Mr. McKinnon, you're gonna be a hero.
21
00:00:53,823 --> 00:00:54,955
Steven Birch?
22
00:00:54,957 --> 00:00:56,383
It's either him or you.
23
00:00:56,385 --> 00:00:58,865
You do an autopsy on the deal,
24
00:00:58,867 --> 00:01:00,873
you'll find yourself a
Pulitzer in the carcass.
25
00:01:00,875 --> 00:01:02,064
The federal sentencing guidelines
26
00:01:02,066 --> 00:01:05,554
call for you to serve 11 years.
27
00:01:05,556 --> 00:01:07,395
I don't want to go to jail.
28
00:01:07,397 --> 00:01:09,880
Wise choice, Mr. Birch.
29
00:01:09,882 --> 00:01:11,970
I want to get out from
under this immediately.
30
00:01:11,972 --> 00:01:13,801
Then what can you give me now?
31
00:01:13,803 --> 00:01:15,591
There are a few mid-level guys.
32
00:01:15,593 --> 00:01:16,960
What if I sacrifice them?
33
00:01:16,962 --> 00:01:19,545
I have another source I can
check to be sure it's legit.
34
00:01:19,547 --> 00:01:21,468
I'll be careful.
35
00:01:21,470 --> 00:01:22,806
You better be.
36
00:01:22,808 --> 00:01:25,663
But not everyone out there's a savage.
37
00:01:25,665 --> 00:01:27,951
Rhoades opened his eyes
to the bigger picture.
38
00:01:30,203 --> 00:01:32,926
I don't like the idea
of Boyd going down.
39
00:01:32,928 --> 00:01:35,365
Doesn't... Doesn't sit right with me.
40
00:01:35,367 --> 00:01:37,418
You never give anyone your playbook,
41
00:01:37,420 --> 00:01:39,942
no matter how much you're
rooting for them to win.

43
00:02:17,484 --> 00:02:19,886
I'll move the car for you, Mr. Wagner.
44
00:02:19,888 --> 00:02:22,157
You will leave it right there.
45
00:02:22,159 --> 00:02:25,565
I and it will be gone before long.
46
00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:31,743
Look, it's Wags.
47
00:02:31,745 --> 00:02:33,981
- Hey, Wags, how...
- It's Wags.
48
00:02:35,787 --> 00:02:37,255
Wags, where you been?
49
00:02:37,257 --> 00:02:39,024
Wags, I've been calling you.
50
00:02:41,064 --> 00:02:42,632
Call you back.
51
00:02:49,448 --> 00:02:51,183
You haven't been drinking.
52
00:02:51,185 --> 00:02:52,821
Your eyes are clear.
53
00:02:55,527 --> 00:02:57,096
Let me see.
54
00:02:59,301 --> 00:03:01,470
It's not shaking.
55
00:03:01,472 --> 00:03:02,872
I want to get this out.
56
00:03:02,874 --> 00:03:04,709
When I started here,
57
00:03:04,711 --> 00:03:08,217
I made a promise to you, and you to me.
58
00:03:08,219 --> 00:03:11,590
We've kept that promise no matter what.
59
00:03:11,592 --> 00:03:13,427
Well, with a windup like that,
60
00:03:13,429 --> 00:03:16,165
I'm sure whatever you have
to say must be important.
61
00:03:16,167 --> 00:03:17,969
It is.
62
00:03:17,971 --> 00:03:19,839
Momentous even.
63
00:03:19,841 --> 00:03:21,042
Yeah.
64
00:03:21,044 --> 00:03:24,014
Ah, thing is, it's not your turn to speak.
65
00:03:24,016 --> 00:03:25,585
Why's that?
66
00:03:25,587 --> 00:03:28,557
Because while you have been
out there learning the Yaqui Way
67
00:03:28,559 --> 00:03:30,227
or how to run like the Tarahumara,
68
00:03:30,229 --> 00:03:32,130
I have been in here fighting the battle
69
00:03:32,132 --> 00:03:34,469
of fucking Thermopylae!
70
00:03:35,673 --> 00:03:37,742
_
71
00:03:44,491 --> 00:03:46,360
Hell of a job, Sung.
72
00:03:46,362 --> 00:03:48,764
Corporate was going on about how we'd never
73
00:03:48,766 --> 00:03:51,703
make delivery on the Sapphire Super-Thin.
74
00:03:51,705 --> 00:03:54,676
I was like, shit, you don't know Sung.
75
00:04:37,831 --> 00:04:39,701
Axe, we're fucked!
76
00:04:48,285 --> 00:04:50,086
Gordie, say hi to Mr. Pawlowski.
77
00:04:50,088 --> 00:04:51,890
Fuck that. It's Nicky, kid.
78
00:04:51,892 --> 00:04:53,527
- Nicky.
- Hello.
79
00:04:53,529 --> 00:04:55,698
You know, I owe everything to your dad.
80
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:56,933
You know that?
81
00:04:56,935 --> 00:04:59,138
We were getting killed out
here, couldn't make a dime.
82
00:04:59,140 --> 00:05:00,841
And then your dad figures
out how we could come away
83
00:05:00,843 --> 00:05:03,680
with $50k a race on the triple.
84
00:05:03,682 --> 00:05:04,983
- You see you real...
- All right, all right,
85
00:05:04,985 --> 00:05:07,221
we'll give him the full
education another time.
86
00:05:07,223 --> 00:05:09,359
He already knows the most important part.
87
00:05:09,361 --> 00:05:12,265
Who makes a bet if they don't
know how it's gonna turn out?
88
00:05:12,267 --> 00:05:13,166
Suckers.
89
00:05:15,373 --> 00:05:16,673
Go take some pictures, yeah?
90
00:05:16,675 --> 00:05:17,877
My phone's dead.
91
00:05:19,214 --> 00:05:20,650
Here you go.
92
00:05:23,789 --> 00:05:26,359
You didn't come up here
for a tip on a race?
93
00:05:26,361 --> 00:05:28,162
You heard anything about a new casino
94
00:05:28,164 --> 00:05:30,534
coming to upstate New York?
95
00:05:30,536 --> 00:05:32,738
Whispers, yeah. I heard whispers.
96
00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:36,379
It's important I find out
where exactly it's going.
97
00:05:36,381 --> 00:05:38,115
The town's unclear.
98
00:05:38,117 --> 00:05:40,086
But I did hear this big casino guy,
99
00:05:40,088 --> 00:05:42,090
Donald Thayer, he's getting ready
100
00:05:42,092 --> 00:05:43,894
to get busy building upstate.
101
00:05:43,896 --> 00:05:44,996
I know Thayer.
102
00:05:44,998 --> 00:05:46,433
Mm. 'Course you do.
103
00:05:46,435 --> 00:05:48,503
Dad, your phone is, like, blowing up.
104
00:05:48,505 --> 00:05:49,839
Oh, yeah?
105
00:05:59,494 --> 00:06:01,296
Calling to tell me Sansomic's fucked?
106
00:06:01,298 --> 00:06:02,365
I just got word.
107
00:06:02,367 --> 00:06:03,667
Yeah, they're gonna stiff delivery
108
00:06:03,669 --> 00:06:05,604
on 400,000 Celestial phones.
109
00:06:05,606 --> 00:06:08,477
Their glass supplier beefed
on the new super-thin screens.
110
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:10,848
They crack under the
heat gun during adhesion.
111
00:06:10,850 --> 00:06:13,019
Some guy in Korea
took a mickey over it.
112
00:06:13,021 --> 00:06:15,491
But that's only half the
reason why I'm calling.
113
00:06:15,493 --> 00:06:16,559
What?
114
00:06:16,561 --> 00:06:18,430
Sam Brandt... Street Scoop...
115
00:06:18,432 --> 00:06:19,699
Out hunting.
116
00:06:19,701 --> 00:06:21,135
She knows you're lugging the stock
117
00:06:21,137 --> 00:06:23,440
and you're facing your first
down quarter because of it.
118
00:06:23,442 --> 00:06:26,078
She wants you to be a
talking head on her show.
119
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,049
Shit! Can you spike it?
120
00:06:28,051 --> 00:06:30,119
No, but if you say you'll go on,
121
00:06:30,121 --> 00:06:32,792
you can buy yourself the
last three days of the month.
122
00:06:32,794 --> 00:06:34,829
All right, I'll do it.
123
00:06:34,831 --> 00:06:36,666
Thanks for the heads up.
124
00:06:40,242 --> 00:06:42,714
Fuck.
125
00:06:45,151 --> 00:06:46,853
So, we're still talking about this?
126
00:06:46,855 --> 00:06:48,557
We are.
127
00:06:48,559 --> 00:06:50,594
Huh.
128
00:06:50,596 --> 00:06:51,596
It's beneath us.
129
00:06:51,598 --> 00:06:52,631
Petty.
130
00:06:52,633 --> 00:06:56,038
Let's not judge in that way.
131
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:57,810
Wendy.
132
00:06:59,881 --> 00:07:02,618
I ask him not to overdress for dinner.
133
00:07:02,620 --> 00:07:03,954
Eight people on a patio,
134
00:07:03,956 --> 00:07:06,659
he says he won't, then he shows up in...
135
00:07:06,661 --> 00:07:07,995
that suit.
136
00:07:07,997 --> 00:07:09,399
I was coming from the office.
137
00:07:09,401 --> 00:07:10,701
Erica lives three blocks from us.
138
00:07:10,703 --> 00:07:12,204
Oh, okay.
139
00:07:12,206 --> 00:07:14,842
So, I wanted to wear the suit.
140
00:07:14,844 --> 00:07:16,246
You know, we weren't white-water rafting
141
00:07:16,248 --> 00:07:17,381
down the Colorado,
142
00:07:17,383 --> 00:07:20,153
we were having bisque for fuck's sake.
143
00:07:20,155 --> 00:07:24,762
Oh, on a courtyard outside
a $7 million townhouse.
144
00:07:24,764 --> 00:07:26,533
Wendy...
145
00:07:26,535 --> 00:07:29,037
can you tell Chuck why
it bothered you so much
146
00:07:29,039 --> 00:07:30,743
that he wore that suit?
147
00:07:32,380 --> 00:07:33,680
Yeah.
148
00:07:33,682 --> 00:07:36,686
He can't for a second
let anyone forget he is
149
00:07:36,688 --> 00:07:39,392
the "United States Attorney
for the Southern District."
150
00:07:39,394 --> 00:07:42,765
So, the suit.
151
00:07:42,767 --> 00:07:45,169
It's not enough for him
to think his profession
152
00:07:45,171 --> 00:07:47,942
is... is a calling while
everyone else merely has a job.
153
00:07:47,944 --> 00:07:49,712
He needs to prove it at all times...
154
00:07:49,714 --> 00:07:53,987
Do you think I can't tell
the way people look at us?
155
00:07:59,868 --> 00:08:03,206
Don't you think that I know
that you can do better than me?
156
00:08:06,214 --> 00:08:07,381
Maybe I want to wear something
157
00:08:07,383 --> 00:08:09,719
that won't make them look at us and wonder,
158
00:08:09,721 --> 00:08:12,693
"Gee, what is she doing with him?"
159
00:08:25,719 --> 00:08:28,192
I had no idea you felt that way.
160
00:08:33,936 --> 00:08:35,504
If the quarter ended today,
161
00:08:35,506 --> 00:08:39,077
we'd be underwater like
Crimson fucking Tide.
162
00:08:39,079 --> 00:08:43,386
Sansomic has pulled us
down to negative 2.3%.
163
00:08:43,388 --> 00:08:45,757
But we have three days to turn that around.
164
00:08:45,759 --> 00:08:48,263
So, what do you have for me?
165
00:08:48,265 --> 00:08:50,200
I'm peeling back the skin
on Territory Petroleum.
166
00:08:50,202 --> 00:08:51,469
They're sitting on good numbers.
167
00:08:51,471 --> 00:08:52,338
If they come out, it'll bump seven...
168
00:08:52,340 --> 00:08:53,673
It's too late.
169
00:08:53,675 --> 00:08:56,512
When the numbers come out,
we're a dead man walking.
170
00:08:56,514 --> 00:08:58,950
Aren't you supposed to be on
the Sandicot muni-bond deal?
171
00:08:58,952 --> 00:09:00,220
Why are you even here?
172
00:09:00,222 --> 00:09:01,756
I thought it was an
all-hands situation, urgent.
173
00:09:01,758 --> 00:09:03,226
Yes, it is.
174
00:09:03,228 --> 00:09:06,232
But the greats never sacrifice
the important for the urgent.
175
00:09:06,234 --> 00:09:07,434
They handle the immediate problem
176
00:09:07,436 --> 00:09:09,438
and still make sure to secure the future.
177
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,474
Ferguson?
178
00:09:10,476 --> 00:09:12,511
Rip our illiquid longs.
179
00:09:12,513 --> 00:09:14,248
I've got a few positions on my book
180
00:09:14,250 --> 00:09:15,617
that are ready for juicing.
181
00:09:15,619 --> 00:09:17,788
And we could add some classy
names to the investor letter...
182
00:09:17,790 --> 00:09:19,692
That's fucking window dressing.
183
00:09:19,694 --> 00:09:20,827
Graff?
184
00:09:20,829 --> 00:09:22,364
We flee to quality.
185
00:09:22,366 --> 00:09:23,566
Blue-chip time.
186
00:09:23,568 --> 00:09:24,769
It may not be fast,
187
00:09:24,771 --> 00:09:26,205
but at least we'll be able
to show our investors...
188
00:09:26,207 --> 00:09:29,077
Do you think I don't understand
what the fuck is going on?
189
00:09:29,079 --> 00:09:31,349
You are all playing it safe for the quarter
190
00:09:31,351 --> 00:09:34,455
so you have a shot of
personally being up on the year.
191
00:09:34,457 --> 00:09:38,530
You are all selfish motherfuckers!
192
00:09:38,532 --> 00:09:40,834
Looking to mitigate your downsides
193
00:09:40,836 --> 00:09:43,406
and protect your bonuses.
194
00:09:43,408 --> 00:09:48,183
The only currency that this firm has...
195
00:09:48,185 --> 00:09:49,952
that any firm has these days...
196
00:09:49,954 --> 00:09:51,556
is its winning streak.
197
00:09:51,558 --> 00:09:54,662
The Kevlar of "knowing the answer."
198
00:09:54,664 --> 00:09:57,568
You break that, you break the whole thing.
199
00:10:00,776 --> 00:10:04,648
Nobody leaves here
until you hand me an idea
200
00:10:04,650 --> 00:10:08,256
that I can shock the world
with in a few days time.
201
00:10:15,171 --> 00:10:16,741
Fuck this.
202
00:10:18,545 --> 00:10:20,146
Finally someone has something.
203
00:10:20,148 --> 00:10:21,315
The way I see it,
204
00:10:21,317 --> 00:10:24,087
we need a quick fix in
a non-quick-fix market.
205
00:10:24,089 --> 00:10:26,057
Yeah.
206
00:10:26,059 --> 00:10:27,995
I have an idea.
207
00:10:27,997 --> 00:10:30,166
I was talking to Victor.
208
00:10:30,168 --> 00:10:32,103
Why were you talking to Victor?
209
00:10:32,105 --> 00:10:35,510
You know why.
210
00:10:35,512 --> 00:10:36,879
She have to be here?
211
00:10:36,881 --> 00:10:38,950
Sure as shit.
212
00:10:38,952 --> 00:10:40,253
Changes what I can pitch.
213
00:10:40,255 --> 00:10:42,624
By design.
214
00:10:42,626 --> 00:10:44,495
Well, you may have solved one problem,
215
00:10:44,497 --> 00:10:47,568
but you made the crucial
one much harder to solve.
216
00:10:47,570 --> 00:10:48,736
So you got nothing.
217
00:10:48,738 --> 00:10:50,574
No, I have just what you need.
218
00:10:50,576 --> 00:10:52,613
But apparently, I can't give it to you.
219
00:11:05,439 --> 00:11:07,774
You're allowed, you know.
220
00:11:07,776 --> 00:11:10,947
You are not an algorithm,
you are not a machine,
221
00:11:10,949 --> 00:11:12,784
you're human.
222
00:11:12,786 --> 00:11:15,257
You are allowed to have a down quarter.
223
00:11:15,259 --> 00:11:17,995
All hedge funds do, eventually.
224
00:11:17,997 --> 00:11:20,400
Trust can be built on fallibility.
225
00:11:20,402 --> 00:11:21,736
There have been studies.
226
00:11:21,738 --> 00:11:23,138
You said you were determined
227
00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:25,310
to never come close to the line.
228
00:11:25,312 --> 00:11:26,913
Those are the terms under which I'm here,
229
00:11:26,915 --> 00:11:30,253
so you have to be prepared
for results like these.
230
00:11:30,255 --> 00:11:32,991
You have to be, if not okay with them,
231
00:11:32,993 --> 00:11:35,232
then at least accepting.
232
00:11:37,068 --> 00:11:39,772
I want some privacy. And
where the fuck is Wags?
233
00:11:39,774 --> 00:11:41,175
Find him.
234
00:11:48,825 --> 00:11:52,831
Mr. Watley, hold up, please.
235
00:11:52,833 --> 00:11:55,071
I have a meeting... very important.
236
00:11:57,041 --> 00:11:58,843
Uh, I'll make myself available to you
237
00:11:58,845 --> 00:12:00,447
first opening in my Filofax.
238
00:12:00,449 --> 00:12:02,351
I've seen your calendar.
239
00:12:02,353 --> 00:12:04,855
Make an opening.
240
00:12:04,857 --> 00:12:06,124
Or I will.
241
00:12:12,806 --> 00:12:14,475
Deb, you found Wags?
242
00:12:14,477 --> 00:12:16,679
No.
243
00:12:16,681 --> 00:12:18,916
I have an idea.
244
00:12:18,918 --> 00:12:20,286
- You do?
- Part of one.
245
00:12:20,288 --> 00:12:21,989
It's not mine.
246
00:12:21,991 --> 00:12:25,397
I overheard it from Mafee...
247
00:12:25,399 --> 00:12:26,632
last night.
248
00:12:26,634 --> 00:12:27,901
Ah.
249
00:12:27,903 --> 00:12:29,638
But he can't know it's from me.
250
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,308
It's sensitive.
251
00:12:31,310 --> 00:12:33,381
He's hiding from you.
252
00:12:44,370 --> 00:12:46,405
Is this where you do your best thinking?
253
00:12:46,407 --> 00:12:49,712
I was just finishing up.
254
00:12:49,714 --> 00:12:52,250
I know you, Mafee.
255
00:12:52,252 --> 00:12:54,421
I know when you're holding out.
256
00:12:54,423 --> 00:12:57,427
There's no one else but
us. You should share.
257
00:12:57,429 --> 00:12:59,567
There's this currency play.
258
00:13:02,272 --> 00:13:04,775
Are you transmitting me
the details telepathically?
259
00:13:04,777 --> 00:13:06,846
Okay, just...
260
00:13:06,848 --> 00:13:09,384
There's this guy... Everett Wright.
261
00:13:09,386 --> 00:13:11,789
We're bros. From college.
262
00:13:11,791 --> 00:13:13,058
Played lax together.
263
00:13:13,060 --> 00:13:17,032
Fucking Eveready, he was
always better than me.
264
00:13:17,034 --> 00:13:19,137
He trades currency over at Richards.
265
00:13:19,139 --> 00:13:23,513
Started crushing it right out of school.
266
00:13:23,515 --> 00:13:26,084
Thing is, he's a great guy.
267
00:13:26,086 --> 00:13:27,220
I love him.
268
00:13:27,222 --> 00:13:29,056
When I landed my job here, I thought,
269
00:13:29,058 --> 00:13:32,364
"Damn, I finally crept ahead."
270
00:13:32,366 --> 00:13:33,933
But if I tell you what he's got,
271
00:13:33,935 --> 00:13:35,804
you'll love him.
272
00:13:35,806 --> 00:13:39,278
Mafee, no one could take
your place in my heart.
273
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,780
You don't know Eveready.
274
00:13:40,782 --> 00:13:43,352
You'll bring him in.
275
00:13:43,354 --> 00:13:46,225
He'll meet Deb.
276
00:13:50,802 --> 00:13:52,104
Shit.
277
00:13:55,879 --> 00:13:57,581
I wanted to talk next steps
278
00:13:57,583 --> 00:13:59,852
in the Lawrence Boyd investigation.
279
00:13:59,854 --> 00:14:02,056
Now that we have McKinnon back on a wire,
280
00:14:02,058 --> 00:14:03,561
shouldn't we be proactive?
281
00:14:05,599 --> 00:14:08,168
Have you ever been hunting, Sacker?
282
00:14:08,170 --> 00:14:10,306
Uh, no, I'm black.
283
00:14:10,308 --> 00:14:12,377
I didn't realize that was a thing.
284
00:14:12,379 --> 00:14:13,379
It is.
285
00:14:15,652 --> 00:14:19,023
Well, uh, before I started high school,
286
00:14:19,025 --> 00:14:24,033
my father took me up to
Canada to hunt wolves.
287
00:14:24,035 --> 00:14:26,639
Something about making a man of me.
288
00:14:26,641 --> 00:14:30,947
Oh, it was... awful.
289
00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:34,521
I remember we tried everything to bag one.
290
00:14:34,523 --> 00:14:37,294
Tracking. He left deer meat.
291
00:14:37,296 --> 00:14:39,431
Howling.
292
00:14:39,433 --> 00:14:40,800
He blew into a caller
293
00:14:40,802 --> 00:14:43,239
that was supposed to
sound like a dying rabbit.
294
00:14:43,241 --> 00:14:47,447
And all the while, we didn't
see a single blessed wolf.
295
00:14:47,449 --> 00:14:49,985
Well, after three brutal days of this,
296
00:14:49,987 --> 00:14:52,056
we came across a hunter, old guy...
297
00:14:52,058 --> 00:14:54,561
He was probably too old to be out there...
298
00:14:54,563 --> 00:14:58,134
And he gave us some advice.
299
00:14:58,136 --> 00:15:01,976
The next day, we saw three wolves...
300
00:15:01,978 --> 00:15:04,348
and bagged one.
301
00:15:04,350 --> 00:15:06,050
What did he say?
302
00:15:06,052 --> 00:15:08,589
He told my father to use the only trap
303
00:15:08,591 --> 00:15:11,127
that can't be avoided by man or beast
304
00:15:11,129 --> 00:15:13,566
or Lawrence Boyd.
305
00:15:13,568 --> 00:15:15,436
He told him to...
306
00:15:15,438 --> 00:15:17,174
McKinnon called me.
307
00:15:19,446 --> 00:15:20,849
- Hey.
- Hey.
308
00:15:22,386 --> 00:15:24,955
Chef Ryan has everything
set up for your new friend.
309
00:15:24,957 --> 00:15:26,057
He's outside.
310
00:15:26,059 --> 00:15:29,598
A little home court hospitality?
311
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,570
I need you to do something for me.
312
00:15:32,572 --> 00:15:34,841
I want to take the
business to the next level.
313
00:15:34,843 --> 00:15:36,645
To raise capital.
314
00:15:36,647 --> 00:15:38,716
You never even have to ask
me before writing a check.
315
00:15:38,718 --> 00:15:42,089
No, I don't want to just take it from you.
316
00:15:42,091 --> 00:15:44,928
I want the business to
have outside validation.
317
00:15:44,930 --> 00:15:46,432
An actual cap raise.
318
00:15:46,434 --> 00:15:48,736
You sure you're ready?
319
00:15:48,738 --> 00:15:51,208
'Cause what you're asking,
if you're not ready...
320
00:15:51,210 --> 00:15:54,013
I'm ready.
321
00:15:54,015 --> 00:15:56,385
Okay. I'll call Boyd.
322
00:15:56,387 --> 00:15:57,754
And he'll have the
right guy at Spartan-Ives
323
00:15:57,756 --> 00:16:00,328
sit with you about expanding.
324
00:16:04,736 --> 00:16:06,003
Lobster?
325
00:16:06,005 --> 00:16:07,507
Yeah, to impress you.
326
00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:10,112
You impressed?
327
00:16:10,114 --> 00:16:13,252
So, Mafee tells me
328
00:16:13,254 --> 00:16:15,223
that you're not happy over at Richards.
329
00:16:15,225 --> 00:16:17,627
Oh, Mafee.
330
00:16:17,629 --> 00:16:19,798
That boy's something else.
331
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,902
I'd get fired just for having this meeting.
332
00:16:21,904 --> 00:16:23,572
Yeah, well, if this meeting goes well,
333
00:16:23,574 --> 00:16:26,745
that's not gonna be a big concern for you.
334
00:16:26,747 --> 00:16:29,618
Right.
335
00:16:29,620 --> 00:16:32,323
They're leaving a lot of
money on the table at my firm.
336
00:16:32,325 --> 00:16:34,794
And I just have a
philosophical problem with that.
337
00:16:34,796 --> 00:16:38,202
Yeah, so what opportunities
are they scared to pursue?
338
00:16:38,204 --> 00:16:39,538
It's not a one-firm play.
339
00:16:39,540 --> 00:16:42,177
You need all five families
going in to make it work.
340
00:16:42,179 --> 00:16:43,179
I'm listening.
341
00:16:43,181 --> 00:16:44,414
The Nigerian government
342
00:16:44,416 --> 00:16:47,187
is gonna devalue their currency.
343
00:16:47,189 --> 00:16:48,689
You know that?
344
00:16:48,691 --> 00:16:50,860
The Central Bank Governor told me.
345
00:16:50,862 --> 00:16:52,463
Really?
346
00:16:52,465 --> 00:16:54,033
The Nigerian oil industry is weaker
347
00:16:54,035 --> 00:16:55,269
than numbers suggest.
348
00:16:55,271 --> 00:16:56,438
Much weaker.
349
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,342
A strong gust of wind could blow it over.
350
00:16:58,344 --> 00:17:00,045
They have to devalue.
351
00:17:00,047 --> 00:17:01,515
And when are they gonna do it?
352
00:17:01,517 --> 00:17:03,285
That's the tricky part.
353
00:17:03,287 --> 00:17:04,721
Could be a month from now.
354
00:17:04,723 --> 00:17:08,229
And with the right
pressure, could be tomorrow,
355
00:17:08,231 --> 00:17:10,902
if somebody takes a massive
short position against it.
356
00:17:13,307 --> 00:17:15,876
E-mail me your research... Encrypt it...
357
00:17:15,878 --> 00:17:18,147
as soon as we finish lunch.
358
00:17:18,149 --> 00:17:19,484
If I like what I see,
359
00:17:19,486 --> 00:17:21,888
this won't be the last
lobster we crush together.
360
00:17:26,667 --> 00:17:30,273
I got a beautiful wool
silk twill to show you.
361
00:17:30,275 --> 00:17:32,343
Come pick your lining when you're ready.
362
00:17:38,891 --> 00:17:40,426
So, I've read his research.
363
00:17:40,428 --> 00:17:42,664
It's strong, but it's a big play.
364
00:17:42,666 --> 00:17:44,834
It's way out of my risk parameters.
365
00:17:44,836 --> 00:17:46,137
Come in on it for three billion.
366
00:17:46,139 --> 00:17:47,640
It'll be a huge score.
367
00:17:47,642 --> 00:17:51,415
I can't, Bobby. I deal
with Nigeria all the time.
368
00:17:51,417 --> 00:17:52,984
Same with all the primes.
369
00:17:52,986 --> 00:17:55,556
Their sovereign wealth fund.
370
00:17:55,558 --> 00:17:57,894
None of us can be seen
taking down a government.
371
00:17:57,896 --> 00:18:01,100
Look, if it's weak enough
to go, it's nobody's fault.
372
00:18:01,102 --> 00:18:03,104
All the same. What about levering up?
373
00:18:03,106 --> 00:18:04,407
No, if I go to the banks,
374
00:18:04,409 --> 00:18:06,578
word will get out,
they'll crack my position.
375
00:18:06,580 --> 00:18:08,147
Of course.
376
00:18:08,149 --> 00:18:09,918
You need to go to others like you
377
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,190
who are free to operate in the margins.
378
00:18:12,192 --> 00:18:14,728
Big players. Cash heavy.
379
00:18:14,730 --> 00:18:18,067
Krakow, Malverne, even Birch.
380
00:18:18,069 --> 00:18:20,105
His family office had a nice year.
381
00:18:20,107 --> 00:18:21,708
This could really work for him.
382
00:18:21,710 --> 00:18:24,381
Yeah, I'm not sure they'll
come and play on my behalf.
383
00:18:24,383 --> 00:18:25,883
I know about your histories.
384
00:18:25,885 --> 00:18:28,154
But if I tell them where the gold is,
385
00:18:28,156 --> 00:18:29,860
they'll show up with their shovels.
386
00:18:32,030 --> 00:18:33,232
Want a tie?
387
00:18:33,234 --> 00:18:34,601
No, maybe next time.
388
00:18:34,603 --> 00:18:36,738
I'll be expecting to hear from you.
389
00:18:44,656 --> 00:18:46,291
It's Wags.
390
00:18:46,293 --> 00:18:47,894
Don't be boring.
391
00:18:47,896 --> 00:18:50,466
Oh, come... Wags, where the fuck are you?
392
00:18:58,082 --> 00:19:01,020
I almost blew it already.
393
00:19:01,022 --> 00:19:04,092
Standing in the men's room
babbling to Michael Arendt.
394
00:19:04,094 --> 00:19:06,465
Partner Managing Director of Fixed Income.
395
00:19:06,467 --> 00:19:08,202
It was bad.
396
00:19:12,345 --> 00:19:15,249
Hey, Mike, hey.
397
00:19:15,251 --> 00:19:18,388
Mind giving me a little space here, Tom?
398
00:19:18,390 --> 00:19:21,561
Yeah, sure.
399
00:19:21,563 --> 00:19:23,866
Did you catch the Knicks
game last night, Mike?
400
00:19:23,868 --> 00:19:25,936
There wasn't a Knicks game last night.
401
00:19:25,938 --> 00:19:27,640
I-I mean Mets.
402
00:19:28,744 --> 00:19:30,111
We should catch a game sometime,
403
00:19:30,113 --> 00:19:31,448
you know, talk about how we truss up
404
00:19:31,450 --> 00:19:33,721
the Treasury market like
it's a Thanksgiving turkey.
405
00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:37,629
What the hell, man?
406
00:19:39,833 --> 00:19:41,801
I got a lot of work to do.
407
00:19:41,803 --> 00:19:42,937
See ya.
408
00:19:47,248 --> 00:19:48,684
I'm sorry.
409
00:19:50,855 --> 00:19:52,625
Here, give it to me.
410
00:19:54,629 --> 00:19:55,798
Come on.
411
00:20:03,447 --> 00:20:07,787
Well, this has all been a lot for you.
412
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:11,162
And I'm sorry we haven't
all had more success.
413
00:20:22,986 --> 00:20:24,387
Should we go after him?
414
00:20:25,658 --> 00:20:28,195
Let it eat at him.
415
00:20:28,197 --> 00:20:30,334
He'll beg me to get this back.
416
00:20:38,016 --> 00:20:41,421
When the guys see me training
to climb the Col du Tourmalet,
417
00:20:41,423 --> 00:20:43,594
it'll inspire them to great heights, too.
418
00:20:46,900 --> 00:20:49,637
I'll skip the cooldown.
419
00:20:49,639 --> 00:20:52,543
No need. This'll be quick, and
then you can get back at it.
420
00:20:52,545 --> 00:20:56,317
Nope. You're in here.
421
00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:59,089
Let's be here.
422
00:20:59,091 --> 00:21:01,062
Together.
423
00:21:02,632 --> 00:21:05,302
Well, I-I just want to know
if you've heard from Wags.
424
00:21:05,304 --> 00:21:06,771
No.
425
00:21:06,773 --> 00:21:08,308
I had heard he's M.I.A.
426
00:21:08,310 --> 00:21:09,644
and that the guys here miss him,
427
00:21:09,646 --> 00:21:12,148
which surprised me.
428
00:21:12,150 --> 00:21:14,687
What, that he's off the
grid or that they miss him?
429
00:21:14,689 --> 00:21:16,224
Anyone could see that he was driving
430
00:21:16,226 --> 00:21:19,497
towards a wall like Dale
Earnhardt at Daytona.
431
00:21:19,499 --> 00:21:21,133
And what did you do to stop it?
432
00:21:21,135 --> 00:21:22,970
No. No, sir.
433
00:21:22,972 --> 00:21:25,642
If a crash is coming, I say you bring it.
434
00:21:25,644 --> 00:21:27,747
It's the only way to get to the other side.
435
00:21:27,749 --> 00:21:29,015
If you survive.
436
00:21:29,017 --> 00:21:33,157
Look, you hired me to
help you maximize results,
437
00:21:33,159 --> 00:21:34,427
not to coddle the staff.
438
00:21:34,429 --> 00:21:35,429
He hired you.
439
00:21:35,431 --> 00:21:37,132
I sort of rubber-stamped it.
440
00:21:37,134 --> 00:21:40,207
And you listen to all of his suggestions?
441
00:21:42,879 --> 00:21:45,282
You said you were surprised
that they missed him?
442
00:21:45,284 --> 00:21:46,651
Well, they talk about him
443
00:21:46,653 --> 00:21:48,855
like they hate his fucking
guts most of the time.
444
00:21:48,857 --> 00:21:51,895
That way they don't hate me.
445
00:21:51,897 --> 00:21:54,300
He's willing to put himself in that spot.
446
00:21:54,302 --> 00:21:58,175
So it's his loyalty that matters to you.
447
00:21:58,177 --> 00:22:00,379
This isn't about me.
448
00:22:00,381 --> 00:22:01,948
You didn't have to walk down here
449
00:22:01,950 --> 00:22:03,652
to see if I knew where Wags was, boyo.
450
00:22:03,654 --> 00:22:05,021
You could've just called.
451
00:22:05,023 --> 00:22:08,195
You came in here because
you want it to be about you.
452
00:22:08,197 --> 00:22:12,035
Because you need it to be about you.
453
00:22:12,037 --> 00:22:15,107
And I am here for exactly that purpose.
454
00:22:15,109 --> 00:22:16,078
Really?
455
00:22:18,617 --> 00:22:21,487
Let me into that kitchen.
456
00:22:21,489 --> 00:22:24,861
What specific role does Wags serve for you?
457
00:22:24,863 --> 00:22:28,067
He's my personal bullshit detector.
458
00:22:28,069 --> 00:22:29,537
And he makes me laugh.
459
00:22:29,539 --> 00:22:32,345
Well, I can fill that role.
460
00:22:34,716 --> 00:22:35,949
You'll be my bullshit detector?
461
00:22:35,951 --> 00:22:37,219
Absolutely.
462
00:22:37,221 --> 00:22:40,294
Like a double shot of Skin
Bracer across the chops.
463
00:22:43,032 --> 00:22:45,569
Well, let me do the same for you.
464
00:22:45,571 --> 00:22:49,042
One... the only way you are
ever getting in my kitchen
465
00:22:49,044 --> 00:22:51,881
is if my chef takes the weekend off.
466
00:22:51,883 --> 00:22:55,322
Two... I'd never trust
anyone who'd undercut the man
467
00:22:55,324 --> 00:22:57,125
who got him a job.
468
00:22:57,127 --> 00:22:59,764
Three... when the guys look in here
469
00:22:59,766 --> 00:23:01,668
and see you training for the Tour de France
470
00:23:01,670 --> 00:23:03,371
in your underwear
471
00:23:03,373 --> 00:23:06,678
in Wendy Rhoades' office,
472
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,815
they're not inspired.
473
00:23:08,817 --> 00:23:10,519
They're just wondering
474
00:23:10,521 --> 00:23:13,625
why the hell she isn't here anymore.
475
00:23:28,590 --> 00:23:30,993
Tight pitch.
476
00:23:30,995 --> 00:23:32,196
Cool business.
477
00:23:32,198 --> 00:23:33,331
Thanks.
478
00:23:33,333 --> 00:23:35,003
Why do you really want the money?
479
00:23:37,341 --> 00:23:40,111
We need to outflank competitors now.
480
00:23:40,113 --> 00:23:42,015
Grow our market share fast and fat
481
00:23:42,017 --> 00:23:43,318
and chase them out of the fields.
482
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,087
We're paying retail for the drugs.
483
00:23:45,089 --> 00:23:47,359
We need to buy in bulk,
increase our margins.
484
00:23:47,361 --> 00:23:50,232
We see college campuses
as our next frontier.
485
00:23:50,234 --> 00:23:52,068
Hangover central, you know?
486
00:23:52,070 --> 00:23:55,041
And since we can show that our
product enhances performance,
487
00:23:55,043 --> 00:23:57,780
the fitness industry is logical, too.
488
00:23:57,782 --> 00:24:00,051
I could put you guys in front of the money
489
00:24:00,053 --> 00:24:02,021
for a round of meetings.
490
00:24:02,023 --> 00:24:05,829
They are going to lap you two up.
491
00:24:05,831 --> 00:24:07,900
Mm.
492
00:24:07,902 --> 00:24:10,505
Well, thank you for your time.
493
00:24:10,507 --> 00:24:12,709
We'll, um, be in touch to schedule.
494
00:24:12,711 --> 00:24:14,780
Hey, anything for Lawrence Boyd.
495
00:24:14,782 --> 00:24:16,784
It was a personal ask from him.
496
00:24:16,786 --> 00:24:19,358
And anything for your husband.
497
00:24:20,661 --> 00:24:22,331
Thanks.
498
00:24:33,286 --> 00:24:35,390
Bryan.
499
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:37,960
I'm sorry. Gimme a sec.
500
00:24:37,962 --> 00:24:39,064
Okay.
501
00:24:42,505 --> 00:24:44,206
I heard you were in here.
502
00:24:44,208 --> 00:24:46,177
Is this Go club?
503
00:24:46,179 --> 00:24:47,813
Yeah.
504
00:24:47,815 --> 00:24:51,921
My night to host, and
my apartment's too small.
505
00:24:51,923 --> 00:24:52,890
I tried you.
506
00:24:52,892 --> 00:24:55,094
Oh, we put them in the basket
507
00:24:55,096 --> 00:24:57,501
before we play, because, you know...
508
00:25:01,876 --> 00:25:04,813
Because Go players didn't have
cellphones in ancient times.
509
00:25:04,815 --> 00:25:07,084
Okay. Got it.
510
00:25:07,086 --> 00:25:10,692
And do you take a vow of celibacy, as well?
511
00:25:10,694 --> 00:25:12,329
No, it's just the end result.
512
00:25:14,936 --> 00:25:16,737
McKinnon just sent word.
513
00:25:16,739 --> 00:25:17,906
He and his wife are having dinner
514
00:25:17,908 --> 00:25:20,247
with Boyd and his wife tomorrow night.
515
00:25:21,216 --> 00:25:22,382
That was quick. You were right.
516
00:25:22,384 --> 00:25:23,818
Private table at Ai Fiori.
517
00:25:23,820 --> 00:25:25,087
Cozy.
518
00:25:25,089 --> 00:25:26,857
Coordinate with FBI to set up surveillance.
519
00:25:26,859 --> 00:25:28,294
We're gonna be there.
520
00:25:28,296 --> 00:25:29,196
Yes, sir.
521
00:25:29,198 --> 00:25:31,132
Oh, I almost forgot,
522
00:25:31,134 --> 00:25:33,740
you better block that
monkey jump at the bottom.
523
00:26:01,296 --> 00:26:02,596
I don't walk in the fucking door
524
00:26:02,598 --> 00:26:04,833
without it being Lawrence Boyd asking.
525
00:26:04,835 --> 00:26:06,169
Why are we here?
526
00:26:06,171 --> 00:26:07,506
Hi. What can I get you?
527
00:26:07,508 --> 00:26:08,975
Could you get them three
lumberjacks, please?
528
00:26:08,977 --> 00:26:10,280
Sure.
529
00:26:12,184 --> 00:26:14,722
Nigeria is gonna devalue its currency.
530
00:26:15,924 --> 00:26:17,225
Get the hell out of here.
531
00:26:17,227 --> 00:26:18,594
How could you know that?
532
00:26:18,596 --> 00:26:20,398
Because we're gonna make it happen.
533
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:21,834
Jesus fuck.
534
00:26:21,836 --> 00:26:23,638
I have all the research for you.
535
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,575
Currency plays are all about timing.
536
00:26:25,577 --> 00:26:27,779
You get in too late, there's nothing there.
537
00:26:27,781 --> 00:26:30,285
But you get in too early,
they raise interest rates
538
00:26:30,287 --> 00:26:31,954
and bleed you out of your position.
539
00:26:31,956 --> 00:26:33,090
Agreed.
540
00:26:33,092 --> 00:26:34,526
Being early is the same as being wrong.
541
00:26:34,528 --> 00:26:35,929
That's why I'm here.
542
00:26:35,931 --> 00:26:37,933
But if each of us take a monster position
543
00:26:37,935 --> 00:26:40,972
against the Naira, we dictate the timing.
544
00:26:40,974 --> 00:26:44,045
I have traders shorting it
in Australasia as we speak,
545
00:26:44,047 --> 00:26:46,884
and I have orders teed
up all across Europe.
546
00:26:46,886 --> 00:26:49,423
I stand to make a huge kill on my own.
547
00:26:49,425 --> 00:26:52,128
So you just felt the urge to share?
548
00:26:52,130 --> 00:26:53,498
Bullshit.
549
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:55,134
You don't have enough ammo
to do this on your own.
550
00:26:55,136 --> 00:26:56,102
You need us.
551
00:26:56,104 --> 00:26:58,541
We have calendars, too.
552
00:26:58,543 --> 00:27:00,845
You got wacked by Sansomic.
553
00:27:00,847 --> 00:27:02,114
I bet this deal's all that stands
554
00:27:02,116 --> 00:27:04,853
between mighty Axe Capital
taking a down quarter.
555
00:27:04,855 --> 00:27:07,024
All we have to do is flush.
556
00:27:07,026 --> 00:27:10,865
All right, you got me.
557
00:27:10,867 --> 00:27:13,540
This deal only works if
we're all in it together.
558
00:27:15,577 --> 00:27:17,512
The threshold is five billion.
559
00:27:17,514 --> 00:27:18,614
I'm in it for two.
560
00:27:18,616 --> 00:27:21,587
That leaves one each for you three.
561
00:27:21,589 --> 00:27:25,428
So, which is the more powerful driver...
562
00:27:25,430 --> 00:27:26,897
boning me,
563
00:27:26,899 --> 00:27:28,870
or your own self-interest?
564
00:27:30,707 --> 00:27:32,843
Fuck.
565
00:27:32,845 --> 00:27:35,215
In.
566
00:27:35,217 --> 00:27:36,853
Yep.
567
00:27:40,794 --> 00:27:43,297
This is Everett.
568
00:27:43,299 --> 00:27:45,568
He's gonna run you through the research.
569
00:27:45,570 --> 00:27:47,472
My treat.
570
00:28:03,806 --> 00:28:07,846
Is Mommy coming home to take us to school?
571
00:28:07,848 --> 00:28:09,316
No, sweetheart.
572
00:28:09,318 --> 00:28:11,320
Remember, I told you.
573
00:28:11,322 --> 00:28:13,691
Mommy and Daddy are spending
some time apart for awhile.
574
00:28:13,693 --> 00:28:17,801
So, I'm home now, and
Mommy will be home tonight.
575
00:28:20,039 --> 00:28:22,275
Mom doesn't even want to come home.
576
00:28:22,277 --> 00:28:24,113
That is not true, Kevin.
577
00:28:29,992 --> 00:28:31,827
Look at me.
578
00:28:31,829 --> 00:28:33,866
I don't ever want to
hear you say that again.
579
00:28:37,173 --> 00:28:39,276
It's Daddy's fault
580
00:28:39,278 --> 00:28:41,482
that Mommy and Daddy
aren't together right now.
581
00:28:46,759 --> 00:28:48,694
When you're a kid your age,
582
00:28:48,696 --> 00:28:50,898
you think that your
parents know everything.
583
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:53,938
But we don't. We're not perfect.
584
00:28:53,940 --> 00:28:55,775
You know, we're just two people
585
00:28:55,777 --> 00:29:00,418
trying and... often failing
586
00:29:00,420 --> 00:29:03,824
to figure out the best way to be.
587
00:29:03,826 --> 00:29:07,465
And I made some mistakes along the way.
588
00:29:07,467 --> 00:29:10,638
Mistakes that we're all paying for.
589
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,609
So if you want to blame somebody,
590
00:29:12,611 --> 00:29:14,948
blame me, not your mother.
591
00:29:21,429 --> 00:29:23,964
European auto manufactures
use a ton of zinc.
592
00:29:25,035 --> 00:29:26,870
Not a literal ton, just a hyperbole
593
00:29:26,872 --> 00:29:28,674
for how much zinc can be found...
594
00:29:28,676 --> 00:29:29,643
Good morning.
595
00:29:29,645 --> 00:29:30,812
Not for you, Bobby.
596
00:29:30,814 --> 00:29:32,081
Someone leaked.
597
00:29:32,083 --> 00:29:34,586
The banks know, and
they've made Nigeria aware.
598
00:29:34,588 --> 00:29:35,755
They're fighting back.
599
00:29:35,757 --> 00:29:36,824
They're gonna raise rates
600
00:29:36,826 --> 00:29:38,661
and prop up their dog-shit currency?
601
00:29:38,663 --> 00:29:41,433
Looks like it. Thought you should know.
602
00:29:54,762 --> 00:29:56,062
Bobby!
603
00:29:56,064 --> 00:29:57,097
Birch!
604
00:29:57,099 --> 00:29:58,200
Naira's fucked, huh?
605
00:29:58,202 --> 00:29:59,736
But I don't hear panic in your voice.
606
00:29:59,738 --> 00:30:01,807
Come on. All the panic got shook out of me
607
00:30:01,809 --> 00:30:03,677
about a year ago when
Chuck Rhoades came calling.
608
00:30:03,679 --> 00:30:05,248
Yeah, I imagine it did.
609
00:30:05,250 --> 00:30:08,287
You know, for the longest
time, I couldn't synthesize it.
610
00:30:08,289 --> 00:30:09,890
How that story came out in the paper,
611
00:30:09,892 --> 00:30:11,260
how there was just
enough in that article
612
00:30:11,262 --> 00:30:12,829
to bait the U.S. Attorney's Office.
613
00:30:12,831 --> 00:30:14,332
Yeah, it was a bad beat, no doubt.
614
00:30:14,334 --> 00:30:15,868
Well, since then, I've had a lot of time
615
00:30:15,870 --> 00:30:18,474
to just sit and think,
616
00:30:18,476 --> 00:30:19,943
and slowly, it dawned...
617
00:30:19,945 --> 00:30:22,282
If I lost, someone
else must've gained.
618
00:30:22,284 --> 00:30:25,221
So I ran a thousand
simulations a day in my head.
619
00:30:25,223 --> 00:30:28,227
And over and over again,
Bobby, it came back the same.
620
00:30:28,229 --> 00:30:30,531
I was your stalking horse.
621
00:30:30,533 --> 00:30:33,370
You did the transaction.
You left the opening.
622
00:30:33,372 --> 00:30:36,410
It's funny. I was just about
to say the same thing to you.
623
00:30:36,412 --> 00:30:37,979
You left me the opening.
624
00:30:37,981 --> 00:30:40,050
You cost me my business.
625
00:30:40,052 --> 00:30:42,989
Now you're gonna throw me
some deal as an apology?
626
00:30:42,991 --> 00:30:44,426
No.
627
00:30:44,428 --> 00:30:46,430
I'm not that easy.
628
00:30:46,432 --> 00:30:48,367
So instead of betting against the Naira,
629
00:30:48,369 --> 00:30:49,903
I went the other way.
630
00:30:49,905 --> 00:30:52,375
And I let a few other folks
know what was going down.
631
00:30:52,377 --> 00:30:53,510
Strong move.
632
00:30:53,512 --> 00:30:55,715
Might have done the same in your spot.
633
00:30:57,954 --> 00:30:59,789
I know you would've, Bobby.
634
00:31:10,446 --> 00:31:11,582
Deb!
635
00:31:13,252 --> 00:31:14,452
Yes?
636
00:31:14,454 --> 00:31:15,755
You found me Wags, yet?
637
00:31:15,757 --> 00:31:16,690
Not yet.
638
00:31:16,692 --> 00:31:18,694
Just so we're communicating,
639
00:31:18,696 --> 00:31:20,431
you know I mean the guy who
works across the hall, right?
640
00:31:20,433 --> 00:31:21,833
Michael Wagner? Wags?
641
00:31:21,835 --> 00:31:23,504
Yeah. I'm sorry.
642
00:31:23,506 --> 00:31:25,274
I'm trying.
643
00:31:32,958 --> 00:31:35,695
I know my research was right.
644
00:31:35,697 --> 00:31:36,997
I also know it doesn't matter now,
645
00:31:36,999 --> 00:31:38,701
'cause the game has changed.
646
00:31:38,703 --> 00:31:40,604
How strong is Nigeria defending?
647
00:31:40,606 --> 00:31:42,675
It's their version of the Alamo.
648
00:31:42,677 --> 00:31:45,146
Krakow and Malverne are
gonna be looking to pull out.
649
00:31:45,148 --> 00:31:46,817
You should, too.
650
00:31:46,819 --> 00:31:48,086
I don't want my second day here ending
651
00:31:48,088 --> 00:31:50,291
with you personally exposed five billion.
652
00:31:50,293 --> 00:31:53,297
Okay, let's say I manage
to keep it together.
653
00:31:53,299 --> 00:31:55,868
Then you're looking at a global cockfight.
654
00:31:55,870 --> 00:31:57,972
And you're gonna need
people betting on your bird.
655
00:31:57,974 --> 00:31:59,743
I'm gonna need to get word out wide.
656
00:31:59,745 --> 00:32:00,945
Yeah, can't just be you.
657
00:32:00,947 --> 00:32:02,615
It's gonna have to be somebody vaunted,
658
00:32:02,617 --> 00:32:06,423
an economist... somebody
objective, trusted.
659
00:32:06,425 --> 00:32:08,193
That'll say they have to devalue.
660
00:32:08,195 --> 00:32:11,098
Someone like Lawrence Boyd?
661
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:13,002
Right.
662
00:32:13,004 --> 00:32:14,439
Yeah, that'll do it.
663
00:32:17,781 --> 00:32:20,251
I don't want you to worry
about being too tough on me.
664
00:32:20,253 --> 00:32:21,253
All right?
665
00:32:30,473 --> 00:32:33,042
Posture up, posture up.
666
00:32:39,156 --> 00:32:41,960
I'm sorry, but is that a Swiss accent?
667
00:32:41,962 --> 00:32:44,199
Stop it. No one guesses correctly.
668
00:32:44,201 --> 00:32:46,168
Most people just assume I'm German.
669
00:32:46,170 --> 00:32:48,207
Oh, most people didn't spend the summer
670
00:32:48,209 --> 00:32:50,043
in Zurich during law school.
671
00:32:50,045 --> 00:32:51,279
Oh!
672
00:32:51,281 --> 00:32:53,015
That explains the suit.
673
00:32:53,017 --> 00:32:54,686
You're a lawyer.
674
00:32:54,688 --> 00:32:56,957
She said with an undertone of derision.
675
00:32:58,094 --> 00:33:00,163
And what do you do that's so amazing?
676
00:33:00,165 --> 00:33:03,203
At the moment, you
could call me a sculptor.
677
00:33:03,205 --> 00:33:05,207
Oh!
678
00:33:05,209 --> 00:33:08,780
Well, I'd like to see your work.
679
00:33:08,782 --> 00:33:10,419
One day I'll show you.
680
00:33:12,657 --> 00:33:14,726
Yes.
681
00:33:14,728 --> 00:33:16,730
Axe, I didn't walk into that diner
682
00:33:16,732 --> 00:33:18,967
so that I could lose a billion bucks.
683
00:33:18,969 --> 00:33:20,170
You want out?
684
00:33:20,172 --> 00:33:21,540
I'll take on your positions.
685
00:33:21,542 --> 00:33:22,909
Right now.
686
00:33:22,911 --> 00:33:25,281
I already bought up what
was supposed to be Birch's.
687
00:33:25,283 --> 00:33:26,816
Now I'll buy up both of you.
688
00:33:26,818 --> 00:33:28,187
You just say the word.
689
00:33:28,189 --> 00:33:31,459
You'd be risking half your
net worth for the one play?
690
00:33:31,461 --> 00:33:32,428
That's insane.
691
00:33:32,430 --> 00:33:34,899
I am dug the fuck in.
692
00:33:34,901 --> 00:33:37,738
No third-world nation
hinged on a dying industry
693
00:33:37,740 --> 00:33:39,074
and a propped-up currency
694
00:33:39,076 --> 00:33:41,078
is gonna ride me out of my position.
695
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,951
I will drive them into the goddamn ground.
696
00:33:43,953 --> 00:33:46,858
Without Birch. Without either of you.
697
00:33:48,462 --> 00:33:50,397
Wow.
698
00:33:50,399 --> 00:33:53,237
The intensity.
699
00:33:53,239 --> 00:33:54,641
I actually believe you.
700
00:33:57,012 --> 00:33:58,549
So?
701
00:33:59,684 --> 00:34:01,553
Fuck it. I'm sticking.
702
00:34:02,690 --> 00:34:04,261
Me too.
703
00:34:06,265 --> 00:34:10,471
But, Axe, if this is some
move, some game you're playing,
704
00:34:10,473 --> 00:34:12,408
we'll hunt you in a pack
705
00:34:12,410 --> 00:34:15,216
until we're gnawing on your fucking bones.
706
00:34:28,107 --> 00:34:30,244
Hello, Mr. Allerd.
707
00:34:30,246 --> 00:34:31,513
Here?
708
00:34:31,515 --> 00:34:35,086
None of them come here, believe me.
709
00:34:35,088 --> 00:34:36,389
Lay out what you have.
710
00:34:36,391 --> 00:34:40,364
The office is a fiefdom run on fear,
711
00:34:40,366 --> 00:34:43,303
ambition, and advancement.
712
00:34:43,305 --> 00:34:46,643
Probably why it's been so effective.
713
00:34:46,645 --> 00:34:48,780
Loyalties are fading.
714
00:34:48,782 --> 00:34:51,286
Cracks starting to show.
715
00:34:51,288 --> 00:34:53,990
I've interviewed almost everyone
but Rhoades at this point.
716
00:34:53,992 --> 00:34:56,061
I'll get to him last.
717
00:34:56,063 --> 00:34:58,200
This has been...
718
00:34:58,202 --> 00:35:00,304
It's been a fascinating one.
719
00:35:00,306 --> 00:35:02,441
There are those who are
weak but don't have it,
720
00:35:02,443 --> 00:35:06,383
and those who have it but are strong.
721
00:35:06,385 --> 00:35:08,220
I've isolated the one who has it
722
00:35:08,222 --> 00:35:12,127
and will give it... Watley.
723
00:35:12,129 --> 00:35:13,697
He's been running an avoidance play,
724
00:35:13,699 --> 00:35:17,003
but that's at its end.
725
00:35:17,005 --> 00:35:18,974
I'll push for a suspension
726
00:35:18,976 --> 00:35:22,548
if that's what it takes to sit him down.
727
00:35:22,550 --> 00:35:25,621
There's plenty of support out there.
728
00:35:25,623 --> 00:35:29,262
The AG wants this, and soon.
729
00:35:29,264 --> 00:35:32,568
You'll have it.
730
00:35:32,570 --> 00:35:34,839
I will if you say I will.
731
00:35:34,841 --> 00:35:37,745
Thank you, sir.
732
00:35:37,747 --> 00:35:41,920
Something I learned when I
was working under Mondale...
733
00:35:41,922 --> 00:35:44,057
take a little piece of yourself,
734
00:35:44,059 --> 00:35:46,028
tuck it away in the basement.
735
00:35:46,030 --> 00:35:48,467
You can give the rest to the job,
736
00:35:48,469 --> 00:35:51,140
but keep a small piece.
737
00:35:52,410 --> 00:35:54,280
I speak from experience.
738
00:35:56,618 --> 00:35:58,956
Noted.
739
00:36:13,218 --> 00:36:15,554
I find myself thinking
in your words sometimes.
740
00:36:15,556 --> 00:36:18,560
The two that just came
to me are "shit hole."
741
00:36:18,562 --> 00:36:20,230
Sandicot.
742
00:36:20,232 --> 00:36:22,902
If they don't get the casino,
then we have to pass on it.
743
00:36:22,904 --> 00:36:25,072
Even if all that urban
revitalization bullshit
744
00:36:25,074 --> 00:36:26,074
comes into effect?
745
00:36:26,076 --> 00:36:27,678
That'll make incremental change,
746
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,682
but not fast enough and not big enough.
747
00:36:29,684 --> 00:36:31,819
Without that casino, it goes
from something to consider
748
00:36:31,821 --> 00:36:33,623
to something to never think about again.
749
00:36:33,625 --> 00:36:34,692
I see that.
750
00:36:34,694 --> 00:36:36,161
Fuck.
751
00:36:41,474 --> 00:36:43,577
I'm gonna carpet-bomb you
guys with so much fucking food,
752
00:36:43,579 --> 00:36:44,779
you'll be reeling.
753
00:36:44,781 --> 00:36:45,747
Thanks, David.
754
00:36:45,749 --> 00:36:46,983
Don't thank me.
755
00:36:46,985 --> 00:36:48,720
Just be there for us when Fugu goes public.
756
00:36:48,722 --> 00:36:50,124
Absolutely.
757
00:36:52,730 --> 00:36:55,200
I know when someone's working me.
758
00:36:55,202 --> 00:36:56,936
What's your play here?
759
00:36:56,938 --> 00:36:58,974
The bond.
760
00:36:58,976 --> 00:37:01,713
If your casino is going
to the town I need it to.
761
00:37:01,715 --> 00:37:03,783
And because we're friends,
762
00:37:03,785 --> 00:37:05,787
I'm gonna come across with that info?
763
00:37:05,789 --> 00:37:06,823
I was hoping.
764
00:37:06,825 --> 00:37:09,762
A '69 Dodge Challenger.
765
00:37:09,764 --> 00:37:12,336
The one I outbid you for at
Barrett Jackson last summer?
766
00:37:16,811 --> 00:37:19,715
It's parked outside. Here.
767
00:37:23,157 --> 00:37:24,458
The car
768
00:37:24,460 --> 00:37:28,800
is a cute gesture.
769
00:37:28,802 --> 00:37:29,904
And I'll take it.
770
00:37:31,641 --> 00:37:33,276
But it alone,
771
00:37:33,278 --> 00:37:35,549
it's not getting you what you want.
772
00:37:36,885 --> 00:37:40,390
My casino's gonna make that town, so...
773
00:37:40,392 --> 00:37:42,830
I'm your partner on the muni-play.
774
00:37:44,801 --> 00:37:47,271
On a no-risk basis to me.
775
00:37:47,273 --> 00:37:50,777
5% off the books.
776
00:37:50,779 --> 00:37:52,748
Done.
777
00:37:52,750 --> 00:37:54,251
I just need to know where.
778
00:37:54,253 --> 00:37:56,255
Sandicot.
779
00:37:56,257 --> 00:37:58,760
Still waiting on the official decision
780
00:37:58,762 --> 00:38:02,468
to come out of committee, but
they gave me the high sign,
781
00:38:02,470 --> 00:38:05,039
so I know it's a done deal.
782
00:38:06,511 --> 00:38:08,780
You casino guys are all old-line crooks.
783
00:38:08,782 --> 00:38:12,554
At least we wear it with pride.
784
00:38:12,556 --> 00:38:14,792
Move forward with the bond.
785
00:38:14,794 --> 00:38:16,929
The casino is coming to Sandicot.
786
00:38:16,931 --> 00:38:18,366
I'm sure now.
787
00:38:18,368 --> 00:38:20,171
We are committing to this play.
788
00:38:25,249 --> 00:38:27,083
You have to tell me how it is.
789
00:38:27,085 --> 00:38:28,620
You want a bite?
790
00:38:28,622 --> 00:38:31,759
Well, one bite would be
like drowning in a puddle.
791
00:38:31,761 --> 00:38:34,164
I'm sure the kitchen
would do one up for you.
792
00:38:34,166 --> 00:38:35,867
Well, he's eating clean.
793
00:38:36,838 --> 00:38:39,343
McKinnon's coming up.
794
00:38:41,981 --> 00:38:43,683
Hey.
795
00:38:43,685 --> 00:38:45,720
Right. You feeling ready, Tom?
796
00:38:45,722 --> 00:38:47,658
Yeah, yeah, I'm good.
797
00:38:47,660 --> 00:38:49,795
Probably should get back down to the bar.
798
00:38:49,797 --> 00:38:51,933
They're about to seat us.
799
00:38:51,935 --> 00:38:53,336
We only get one shot at this.
800
00:38:54,373 --> 00:38:56,742
Now, remember... any chance you get
801
00:38:56,744 --> 00:38:59,080
to have a private conversation
with Boyd, take it.
802
00:38:59,082 --> 00:39:01,185
Express concerns about the bid rigging.
803
00:39:01,187 --> 00:39:03,121
Make it clear that you know it's going on,
804
00:39:03,123 --> 00:39:04,558
and you're worried that Mike Arendt
805
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,331
is bringing heat on the firm.
806
00:39:07,333 --> 00:39:09,468
That should be enough to
get him to calm your fears.
807
00:39:09,470 --> 00:39:12,341
I might go across the
table at that motherfucker.
808
00:39:12,343 --> 00:39:14,612
Steady, Tom.
809
00:39:14,614 --> 00:39:16,014
This'll hurt him a lot worse
810
00:39:16,016 --> 00:39:18,221
and a lot longer than a punch in the mouth.
811
00:39:20,726 --> 00:39:22,263
Use it well.
812
00:39:25,269 --> 00:39:26,669
How's the feed?
813
00:39:26,671 --> 00:39:27,604
Good to go.
814
00:39:27,606 --> 00:39:28,541
Okay.
815
00:39:37,393 --> 00:39:40,230
Forty-five dollars for a tuna sandwich.
816
00:39:40,232 --> 00:39:41,866
Somebody bring the drinks.
817
00:39:41,868 --> 00:39:44,238
Two at the bar. That's his third.
818
00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:45,907
It's lemony.
819
00:39:45,909 --> 00:39:49,181
It's an island. Everything
has to be brought on by boat.
820
00:39:49,183 --> 00:39:50,817
I know Mustique is an island.
821
00:39:50,819 --> 00:39:51,819
Okay.
822
00:39:51,821 --> 00:39:53,423
So what'd you do, Larry?
823
00:39:53,425 --> 00:39:54,992
I said, "What do you charge for the lemons?
824
00:39:54,994 --> 00:39:56,329
I'll squeeze them myself.
825
00:39:56,331 --> 00:39:58,599
Either that, or I'll fly
in a load of gold bullion."
826
00:39:59,570 --> 00:40:02,641
Larry, Larry, don't... don't cry poor.
827
00:40:02,643 --> 00:40:04,077
How much you take in this year so far?
828
00:40:04,079 --> 00:40:05,413
Come on. Tell us.
829
00:40:05,415 --> 00:40:07,684
Twenty-three, $24 million?
830
00:40:07,686 --> 00:40:09,321
Maybe you've had enough, huh, Tom?
831
00:40:09,323 --> 00:40:11,792
Can we get Tom a cup
of black coffee, please?
832
00:40:12,930 --> 00:40:14,999
I don't want a cup of fucking coffee.
833
00:40:15,001 --> 00:40:16,902
He's drunk. We should pull him.
834
00:40:16,904 --> 00:40:18,506
We've got an agent posing as a waiter.
835
00:40:18,508 --> 00:40:20,276
We can pull him right
now with minimal damage.
836
00:40:20,278 --> 00:40:22,347
We'll hold.
837
00:40:24,353 --> 00:40:26,889
With Thai massage, you're wearing clothes.
838
00:40:26,891 --> 00:40:29,428
What's the fun in that?
839
00:40:30,665 --> 00:40:32,300
Exactly.
840
00:40:32,302 --> 00:40:35,640
Larry. Larry, you fuck.
841
00:40:35,642 --> 00:40:36,842
- Oh.
- Sh... shh...
842
00:40:36,844 --> 00:40:38,011
It's probably going to stain that.
843
00:40:38,013 --> 00:40:39,683
Uh, bad to fucking worse.
844
00:40:40,752 --> 00:40:42,621
Honey, take her to the ladies'.
845
00:40:42,623 --> 00:40:44,727
Yeah, why don't you freshen up?
846
00:40:46,564 --> 00:40:49,904
Tom, get your shit together.
You're embarrassing yourself.
847
00:40:51,707 --> 00:40:53,810
You think I don't know
what's going on here?
848
00:40:57,953 --> 00:40:59,588
What's that, Tom?
849
00:41:06,204 --> 00:41:08,138
Arendt is putting us all in danger.
850
00:41:08,140 --> 00:41:09,608
The Treasury bonds...
851
00:41:09,610 --> 00:41:12,180
He's gonna send us all to prison.
852
00:41:12,182 --> 00:41:15,119
The ten-years.
853
00:41:15,121 --> 00:41:17,056
That's what this is about.
854
00:41:17,058 --> 00:41:19,428
Mike's putting the band
back together again,
855
00:41:19,430 --> 00:41:21,899
just like I told him to.
856
00:41:21,901 --> 00:41:25,273
Fuck, you told him to?
857
00:41:25,275 --> 00:41:26,942
I thought he was free-balling.
858
00:41:26,944 --> 00:41:29,248
Conditions are right to get going again.
859
00:41:29,250 --> 00:41:30,850
We'll tail the shit out of the auction.
860
00:41:30,852 --> 00:41:33,021
The fucking Feds can spare the 15 bips.
861
00:41:33,023 --> 00:41:35,560
Then we can talk
about the 26-weeks.
862
00:41:35,562 --> 00:41:38,299
We have to get some volume going now.
863
00:41:38,301 --> 00:41:40,403
So relax.
864
00:41:40,405 --> 00:41:42,609
That'll do it.
865
00:41:49,022 --> 00:41:53,061
When I started here, I
made a promise to you,
866
00:41:53,063 --> 00:41:55,800
and you to me.
867
00:41:55,802 --> 00:41:59,341
And we've kept that promise no matter what.
868
00:41:59,343 --> 00:42:01,110
Thing is, it's not your turn to speak.
869
00:42:01,112 --> 00:42:02,514
Why's that?
870
00:42:02,516 --> 00:42:04,685
Because while you have been
out there learning the Yaqui Way
871
00:42:04,687 --> 00:42:06,488
or how run like the Tarahumara,
872
00:42:06,490 --> 00:42:08,024
I have been here fighting the battle
873
00:42:08,026 --> 00:42:10,630
of fucking Thermopylae!
874
00:42:10,632 --> 00:42:13,970
I was in sessions with
Wendy, doing deep work.
875
00:42:13,972 --> 00:42:15,673
Oh.
876
00:42:15,675 --> 00:42:18,111
Well, that I do want to hear about.
877
00:42:19,683 --> 00:42:22,654
Best I can put it together...
878
00:42:33,411 --> 00:42:36,215
Wags, wake up. Get up.
879
00:42:36,217 --> 00:42:37,884
Oh, baby, no!
880
00:42:37,886 --> 00:42:39,454
No, not baby. It's Wendy.
881
00:42:39,456 --> 00:42:40,556
Get up!
882
00:42:45,702 --> 00:42:46,935
Why?
883
00:42:46,937 --> 00:42:48,939
Because you begged me for an appointment,
884
00:42:48,941 --> 00:42:50,209
and then you didn't show up.
885
00:42:53,351 --> 00:42:55,787
Oh, you're still here.
886
00:42:55,789 --> 00:42:57,390
No, I'm not.
887
00:42:57,392 --> 00:43:00,028
I'm here, but not like that.
888
00:43:00,030 --> 00:43:01,398
Okay.
889
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,438
Mr. Wagner, I can come back
at 11:30 or two or after five.
890
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,208
She has a key?
891
00:43:06,210 --> 00:43:07,644
Why not?
892
00:43:07,646 --> 00:43:11,117
You have a goddamned I.V.
stand living in your hotel room.
893
00:43:11,119 --> 00:43:13,154
Turns out you have the day off.
894
00:43:13,156 --> 00:43:15,729
With pay.
895
00:43:18,033 --> 00:43:20,236
This is your third divorce,
896
00:43:20,238 --> 00:43:22,674
but your first ass tattoo.
897
00:43:22,676 --> 00:43:24,544
Any ideas?
898
00:43:24,546 --> 00:43:28,919
My idea was the drinking, women,
and drugs in perfect balance.
899
00:43:28,921 --> 00:43:31,057
An infinite Zen garden.
900
00:43:31,059 --> 00:43:34,865
Simplicity, harmony between
the elements, purity,
901
00:43:34,867 --> 00:43:37,570
that's what makes it a Zen garden.
902
00:43:37,572 --> 00:43:40,643
I think you're confusing
it with the AVN Awards.
903
00:43:40,645 --> 00:43:42,112
Okay.
904
00:43:42,114 --> 00:43:44,584
Couple ways this can go...
905
00:43:44,586 --> 00:43:46,655
We do, like, intense psychotherapy
906
00:43:46,657 --> 00:43:49,661
for two years, five days a week,
907
00:43:49,663 --> 00:43:50,897
break down your walls,
908
00:43:50,899 --> 00:43:53,569
push past your
rationalizations and defenses.
909
00:43:53,571 --> 00:43:56,575
Or you can tell me what
the fuck is going on.
910
00:43:56,577 --> 00:43:58,446
How?
911
00:43:58,448 --> 00:44:00,183
Isn't the point of
analysis that we don't know?
912
00:44:00,185 --> 00:44:01,552
Which is why I'm not in that racket.
913
00:44:01,554 --> 00:44:03,789
We don't have that kind of fucking time.
914
00:44:03,791 --> 00:44:05,259
Not anymore.
915
00:44:05,261 --> 00:44:06,662
Fucking right we don't.
916
00:44:06,664 --> 00:44:10,570
I got a goddamned I.V. stand
living in my hotel room.
917
00:44:10,572 --> 00:44:12,174
Good.
918
00:44:13,611 --> 00:44:16,482
Now, whatever caused this
didn't make you retreat.
919
00:44:16,484 --> 00:44:19,221
You didn't become depressive.
You chose distraction.
920
00:44:19,223 --> 00:44:20,790
I'm sad, lonely.
921
00:44:20,792 --> 00:44:22,260
Give me an immediate answer.
922
00:44:22,262 --> 00:44:24,598
I mean, it doesn't have to be
right, just... just blurt it.
923
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,100
When did this feeling first land?
924
00:44:27,706 --> 00:44:29,808
I was in the bathroom.
925
00:44:29,810 --> 00:44:32,881
I was in this club on
the Lower East Side.
926
00:44:32,883 --> 00:44:34,116
I just overpaid
927
00:44:34,118 --> 00:44:36,588
for what were supposed
to be actual quaaludes.
928
00:44:36,590 --> 00:44:38,592
What were you doing on
the Lower East Side?
929
00:44:38,594 --> 00:44:41,532
Drinking with this prick
I worked with years ago.
930
00:44:41,534 --> 00:44:42,800
God, I hated that prick.
931
00:44:42,802 --> 00:44:44,938
I hated him when we worked together.
932
00:44:44,940 --> 00:44:46,942
I hated him even more that night.
933
00:44:46,944 --> 00:44:48,913
Why did you agree to
drink with a guy you hate?
934
00:44:48,915 --> 00:44:51,184
I drink with pricks I hate all the time.
935
00:44:51,186 --> 00:44:52,787
It's the job.
936
00:44:52,789 --> 00:44:56,430
It's the ones who aren't
that stand out like giants.
937
00:44:58,868 --> 00:45:01,605
Holy shit.
938
00:45:01,607 --> 00:45:04,344
Holy shit. Phil.
939
00:45:04,346 --> 00:45:06,248
I can't believe I missed this.
940
00:45:06,250 --> 00:45:08,084
Phil?
941
00:45:08,086 --> 00:45:09,654
Phillip Carroll.
942
00:45:09,656 --> 00:45:10,690
Another prick?
943
00:45:10,692 --> 00:45:12,125
No.
944
00:45:12,127 --> 00:45:14,331
No, the opposite.
945
00:45:14,333 --> 00:45:16,935
Guy was my mentor.
946
00:45:16,937 --> 00:45:19,874
Back when I started at Lehman.
947
00:45:19,876 --> 00:45:21,478
He was the Wilt fucking Chamberlain
948
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:22,714
of Wall Street.
949
00:45:22,716 --> 00:45:25,353
Paid for the whole group's
vacations when he killed it.
950
00:45:25,355 --> 00:45:27,190
Didn't even close his
door when he got crushed.
951
00:45:27,192 --> 00:45:29,059
I saw him on the street.
952
00:45:29,061 --> 00:45:30,930
Hey, Phil!
953
00:45:30,932 --> 00:45:34,804
He looked at me, and I waved.
954
00:45:34,806 --> 00:45:36,274
He walked right past me.
955
00:45:36,276 --> 00:45:39,282
Fucking DK'd me like I was a ghost.
956
00:45:44,393 --> 00:45:47,732
Turns out, he has
early-onset Alzheimer's.
957
00:45:50,838 --> 00:45:53,475
Can't even go out by himself now.
958
00:45:55,181 --> 00:45:58,686
His wife left him. His
kids don't come around.
959
00:45:58,688 --> 00:46:01,460
It was... fucked.
960
00:46:03,497 --> 00:46:08,071
He was there, but he wasn't there...
961
00:46:08,073 --> 00:46:12,747
a carcass with no further purpose.
962
00:46:12,749 --> 00:46:16,421
What you saw would have
brought up issues of mortality
963
00:46:16,423 --> 00:46:18,759
and diminished utility for anyone.
964
00:46:18,761 --> 00:46:21,431
You saw your hero,
965
00:46:21,433 --> 00:46:24,573
a man you deemed better than you, laid low.
966
00:46:25,942 --> 00:46:28,545
That's empathy.
967
00:46:28,547 --> 00:46:30,249
Why did his plight cut you so deep?
968
00:46:30,251 --> 00:46:33,224
What made you so vulnerable
to this idea of fading away?
969
00:46:35,361 --> 00:46:38,398
Axe hired a fucking Chief of Staff.
970
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,103
Her name is Steph Reed.
971
00:46:42,174 --> 00:46:43,577
Oh.
972
00:46:45,381 --> 00:46:47,719
So now he doesn't need you anymore.
973
00:46:50,725 --> 00:46:53,996
And if he doesn't need you anymore,
974
00:46:53,998 --> 00:46:55,668
no one does.
975
00:46:57,004 --> 00:47:00,276
You have outlived your utility.
976
00:47:00,278 --> 00:47:04,317
There is nothing left
for you to do but die.
977
00:47:08,994 --> 00:47:12,400
But you're not dead.
978
00:47:12,402 --> 00:47:16,106
Which means it is time to pivot.
979
00:47:16,108 --> 00:47:19,916
To evolve into what it
is you'll become next.
980
00:47:24,359 --> 00:47:28,799
Wendy reassembled me, piece by piece,
981
00:47:28,801 --> 00:47:30,536
on that bench.
982
00:47:30,538 --> 00:47:33,342
That's what she does.
983
00:47:33,344 --> 00:47:34,978
And I decided I had to give you the chance
984
00:47:34,980 --> 00:47:37,483
to make the change here you need to.
985
00:47:37,485 --> 00:47:42,193
To modernize. Optimize.
986
00:47:42,195 --> 00:47:44,699
To put this old horse out to pasture.
987
00:47:46,970 --> 00:47:49,841
Yeah, well, I'm sorry about Phil,
988
00:47:49,843 --> 00:47:53,782
but this place doesn't
fucking run without you.
989
00:47:53,784 --> 00:47:55,886
I do need you.
990
00:47:55,888 --> 00:47:58,260
Especially since I just let Steph Reed go.
991
00:47:59,829 --> 00:48:01,998
You did?
992
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:03,769
You were wrong.
993
00:48:03,771 --> 00:48:06,775
I'm not human. I am a machine.
994
00:48:06,777 --> 00:48:08,547
I'm a fucking Terminator.
995
00:48:11,186 --> 00:48:13,655
So, your resignation is rejected.
996
00:48:13,657 --> 00:48:15,091
Get some coffee.
997
00:48:15,093 --> 00:48:17,263
We are barely hanging on here.
998
00:48:17,265 --> 00:48:20,269
I just pulled the trigger
on the muni-bond in Sandicot,
999
00:48:20,271 --> 00:48:21,972
and I got one move left to get us
1000
00:48:21,974 --> 00:48:23,909
into the black for this quarter.
1001
00:48:31,058 --> 00:48:32,860
Coffee!
1002
00:48:32,862 --> 00:48:35,666
Hey, Chuck.
1003
00:48:35,668 --> 00:48:37,770
You never finished your story.
1004
00:48:37,772 --> 00:48:39,374
What trap did you and your father use
1005
00:48:39,376 --> 00:48:40,843
to finally get that wolf?
1006
00:48:40,845 --> 00:48:42,880
Oh.
1007
00:48:42,882 --> 00:48:46,788
Yeah, it was, uh, time, Sacker.
1008
00:48:46,790 --> 00:48:49,494
We stayed in the same location all day.
1009
00:48:49,496 --> 00:48:53,169
The trap was time.
1010
00:49:00,317 --> 00:49:01,818
Oh.
1011
00:49:01,820 --> 00:49:04,290
Late night?
1012
00:49:04,292 --> 00:49:07,128
Yeah. And I'm on the move.
1013
00:49:07,130 --> 00:49:09,801
Got television in the
city in a couple hours.
1014
00:49:09,803 --> 00:49:11,003
On your way in,
1015
00:49:11,005 --> 00:49:13,040
give Lawrence Boyd a call for me.
1016
00:49:13,042 --> 00:49:15,279
I'll be with him. What's up?
1017
00:49:15,281 --> 00:49:18,952
Tell him the woman he set me
up with wasted my fucking time.
1018
00:49:18,954 --> 00:49:20,189
I'm sorry?
1019
00:49:20,191 --> 00:49:22,660
It was a bullshit meeting.
1020
00:49:22,662 --> 00:49:24,197
You're a businesswoman, right?
1021
00:49:24,199 --> 00:49:25,199
That's how you went in there?
1022
00:49:25,201 --> 00:49:26,601
Damn right.
1023
00:49:26,603 --> 00:49:28,070
Well, then, was the woman discourteous?
1024
00:49:28,072 --> 00:49:29,373
Was she rude?
1025
00:49:29,375 --> 00:49:31,513
No. It wasn't...
1026
00:49:33,517 --> 00:49:36,421
She treated me like I was just the wife,
1027
00:49:36,423 --> 00:49:38,023
like my business wasn't ready.
1028
00:49:38,025 --> 00:49:39,460
I tried to tell you.
1029
00:49:39,462 --> 00:49:40,863
Yeah, you weren't ready,
1030
00:49:40,865 --> 00:49:43,000
but you wouldn't hear it from me.
1031
00:49:43,002 --> 00:49:44,704
You put me in touch with Spartan-Ives.
1032
00:49:44,706 --> 00:49:46,941
- You said to go ahead.
- Don't. Don't.
1033
00:49:46,943 --> 00:49:48,378
I don't have time to have this conversation
1034
00:49:48,380 --> 00:49:49,313
the way you need me to.
1035
00:49:49,315 --> 00:49:50,582
You weren't ready.
1036
00:49:50,584 --> 00:49:51,885
Leave it there.
1037
00:49:51,887 --> 00:49:53,122
Why the fuck not?
1038
00:49:55,661 --> 00:49:58,965
What is it that you do that
you're the best in the world at?
1039
00:49:58,967 --> 00:50:00,869
You offer a service you didn't invent,
1040
00:50:00,871 --> 00:50:02,573
a formula you didn't invent,
1041
00:50:02,575 --> 00:50:04,744
a delivery method you didn't invent.
1042
00:50:04,746 --> 00:50:06,614
Nothing about what you do
1043
00:50:06,616 --> 00:50:09,387
is patentable or a unique user experience.
1044
00:50:09,389 --> 00:50:12,326
You haven't identified an
isolated market segment,
1045
00:50:12,328 --> 00:50:13,929
haven't truly branded your concept.
1046
00:50:13,931 --> 00:50:15,566
You need me to go on?
1047
00:50:15,568 --> 00:50:18,371
So, why would an investment
bank put serious money into it?
1048
00:50:18,373 --> 00:50:20,107
I all but told you ahead of time,
1049
00:50:20,109 --> 00:50:21,277
but you wouldn't listen.
1050
00:50:21,279 --> 00:50:24,317
Now you've heard it, but it's too late.
1051
00:50:24,319 --> 00:50:27,258
You weren't ready.
1052
00:50:29,729 --> 00:50:31,163
Now, I gotta go into New York
1053
00:50:31,165 --> 00:50:33,868
to try and save my fucking quarter.
1054
00:50:43,223 --> 00:50:44,724
Mr. Axelrod, I'll be in to get you
1055
00:50:44,726 --> 00:50:46,026
in two minutes to go on the air.
1056
00:50:46,028 --> 00:50:49,400
Thank you. And thank you, Larry.
1057
00:50:49,402 --> 00:50:51,169
You locked in on how you want to do it?
1058
00:50:51,171 --> 00:50:53,642
Yeah.
1059
00:50:53,644 --> 00:50:56,347
When I follow you on, I'll
back whatever you said.
1060
00:51:02,795 --> 00:51:05,131
Former teaching assistant of mine
1061
00:51:05,133 --> 00:51:06,868
clerks for a federal judge now.
1062
00:51:06,870 --> 00:51:08,238
Uh-huh?
1063
00:51:08,240 --> 00:51:09,540
She just told me that her judge
1064
00:51:09,542 --> 00:51:11,911
signed an arrest warrant for Lawrence Boyd.
1065
00:51:14,552 --> 00:51:17,389
They are coming for him.
1066
00:51:17,391 --> 00:51:19,929
He'll be in cuffs within the hour.
1067
00:51:22,635 --> 00:51:24,104
Thank you.
1068
00:51:27,812 --> 00:51:29,415
Ready?
1069
00:51:31,653 --> 00:51:33,490
Yeah.
1070
00:51:41,906 --> 00:51:43,710
Go get 'em.
1071
00:51:46,449 --> 00:51:48,551
I will.
1072
00:52:00,577 --> 00:52:01,811
Axe.
1073
00:52:01,813 --> 00:52:04,216
Let's do dinner again soon
with Savannah and Mike.
1074
00:52:04,218 --> 00:52:05,652
Huh?
1075
00:52:05,654 --> 00:52:08,056
When we're on, I have to
get into all the action
1076
00:52:08,058 --> 00:52:10,564
against you on the Nigerian play.
1077
00:52:12,668 --> 00:52:14,804
You okay?
1078
00:52:14,806 --> 00:52:15,774
Yeah.
1079
00:52:17,244 --> 00:52:19,580
Will you ask me about my bracelet?
1080
00:52:19,582 --> 00:52:21,918
Fun way in.
1081
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:23,922
We're pleased to welcome Bobby Axelrod,
1082
00:52:23,924 --> 00:52:26,227
the principal and founder of Axe Capital.
1083
00:52:26,229 --> 00:52:27,629
Bobby, it's a pleasure to have you here.
1084
00:52:27,631 --> 00:52:28,731
It's a pleasure to be here, Sam.
1085
00:52:28,733 --> 00:52:30,635
Before we get started, I have to ask...
1086
00:52:30,637 --> 00:52:32,606
You're wearing a very unique bracelet.
1087
00:52:32,608 --> 00:52:33,975
What's the significance?
1088
00:52:33,977 --> 00:52:35,812
Oh, this?
1089
00:52:35,814 --> 00:52:38,418
I wear this Yoruba bracelet in solidarity
1090
00:52:38,420 --> 00:52:40,822
with the people of Nigeria.
1091
00:52:40,824 --> 00:52:43,862
I have seen the hope and
purpose these people have,
1092
00:52:43,864 --> 00:52:45,632
and today I'm worried for them, Sam.
1093
00:52:45,634 --> 00:52:47,803
Their economy is on the verge of collapse.
1094
00:52:47,805 --> 00:52:51,344
Their oil reserves are severely overvalued.
1095
00:52:51,346 --> 00:52:54,683
In short, their currency is in jeopardy.
1096
00:53:03,703 --> 00:53:06,674
And so, yes, there is no doubt in my mind
1097
00:53:06,676 --> 00:53:09,413
that my good friend, Bobby Axelrod,
1098
00:53:09,415 --> 00:53:11,149
has this one right.
1099
00:53:11,151 --> 00:53:13,655
The Nigerian currency, the Naira,
1100
00:53:13,657 --> 00:53:15,959
is facing certain devaluation.
1101
00:53:15,961 --> 00:53:17,696
It's their only choice,
1102
00:53:17,698 --> 00:53:20,000
no matter how much it hurts the people.
1103
00:53:20,002 --> 00:53:22,306
I can see that.
1104
00:53:32,728 --> 00:53:33,995
We nailed that.
1105
00:53:33,997 --> 00:53:37,034
The old Malachi Crunch.
1106
00:53:37,036 --> 00:53:38,605
The market is shifting already.
1107
00:53:38,607 --> 00:53:40,007
It is done.
1108
00:53:40,009 --> 00:53:41,877
Yes, it is.
1109
00:53:41,879 --> 00:53:43,283
Larry...
1110
00:53:45,587 --> 00:53:47,689
in a few moments,
1111
00:53:47,691 --> 00:53:50,695
the FBI are gonna come
walking through that door
1112
00:53:50,697 --> 00:53:52,866
and they're going to arrest you.
1113
00:53:52,868 --> 00:53:54,870
You can't run.
1114
00:53:54,872 --> 00:53:57,008
There's no time.
1115
00:54:01,653 --> 00:54:05,759
Rhoades fucked me like
you thought he would.
1116
00:54:05,761 --> 00:54:07,195
And you got the call
1117
00:54:07,197 --> 00:54:09,466
before you went on, didn't you?
1118
00:54:09,468 --> 00:54:12,606
Your whole manner changed.
You didn't even warn me.
1119
00:54:12,608 --> 00:54:13,741
I couldn't.
1120
00:54:13,743 --> 00:54:15,278
Because you needed me to go on the air
1121
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:16,981
to corroborate your story,
1122
00:54:16,983 --> 00:54:19,822
get your message out, save your quarter.
1123
00:54:22,861 --> 00:54:25,799
I get it. It was smart.
1124
00:54:27,170 --> 00:54:32,011
This is some fucked-up universe
we've decided to live in.
1125
00:54:32,013 --> 00:54:33,316
How can I help now?
1126
00:54:35,921 --> 00:54:38,691
Hold this for me.
1127
00:54:38,693 --> 00:54:40,995
And I need you to get word to my lawyer.
1128
00:54:40,997 --> 00:54:42,301
And Linda?
1129
00:54:44,037 --> 00:54:45,438
Make sure she tells the kids
1130
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,411
before they find out from the news.
1131
00:54:48,413 --> 00:54:49,847
Done.
1132
00:54:56,229 --> 00:54:57,295
Larry.
1133
00:54:57,297 --> 00:54:59,165
I know.
1134
00:54:59,167 --> 00:55:00,568
Lawrence Boyd?
1135
00:55:00,570 --> 00:55:02,372
You're under arrest.
1136
00:55:02,374 --> 00:55:04,142
You have the right to remain silent.
1137
00:55:04,144 --> 00:55:06,480
Anything you say can and
will be used against you
1138
00:55:06,482 --> 00:55:07,449
in a court of law.
1139
00:55:11,893 --> 00:55:15,063
I thought you were ready
to take the next step.
1140
00:55:15,065 --> 00:55:17,571
I thought you understood the goddamn game.
1141
00:55:18,573 --> 00:55:20,844
Oh, I believe I do, sir.
1142
00:55:23,015 --> 00:55:25,187
I believe I do.
1143
00:55:31,131 --> 00:55:32,699
Hello, Bob.
1144
00:55:32,701 --> 00:55:36,473
I don't put any stock in
omens or fortune tellers,
1145
00:55:36,475 --> 00:55:39,313
but this must feel
1146
00:55:39,315 --> 00:55:42,485
a little like your future foretold, huh?
1147
00:55:42,487 --> 00:55:44,623
You mean watching you arrest other people
1148
00:55:44,625 --> 00:55:46,393
while I walk right out the door?
1149
00:55:46,395 --> 00:55:48,698
Yeah. Kinda does.
1150
00:56:54,872 --> 00:56:59,872
