1
00:00:00,684 --> 00:00:02,582
Previously on "Billions"...
2
00:00:02,942 --> 00:00:04,108
Donnie Caan.
3
00:00:04,110 --> 00:00:05,609
We're gonna triple up his stack.
4
00:00:05,611 --> 00:00:08,223
Get started with 200,000
shares of Rubinex.
5
00:00:08,290 --> 00:00:11,691
Dean, seventh President. Hint?
Two after Monroe.
6
00:00:12,285 --> 00:00:13,883
Jackson. Andrew Jackson.
7
00:00:13,908 --> 00:00:15,074
Gordie, where was he from?
8
00:00:15,099 --> 00:00:17,481
Border areas near the Carolinas.
9
00:00:17,506 --> 00:00:19,939
All I have to do is drop the hammer,
10
00:00:20,158 --> 00:00:23,301
and you will look like absolute shit.
11
00:00:23,432 --> 00:00:25,732
I need you to find Martina Slovis.
12
00:00:25,797 --> 00:00:28,398
Dropped out of Brooklyn Law.
Only for me.
13
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,467
Raul Gomez. New York City
Police Pension Fund.
14
00:00:30,469 --> 00:00:32,450
I wanna thank you for
meeting with me in person.
15
00:00:32,516 --> 00:00:34,049
I knew that if I gave you my money,
16
00:00:34,130 --> 00:00:35,562
you would do whatever you had to
17
00:00:35,673 --> 00:00:37,059
and wouldn't care what it looked like.
18
00:00:37,090 --> 00:00:38,455
This company came under attack.
19
00:00:38,480 --> 00:00:39,668
We're gonna put him in a cell.
20
00:00:39,693 --> 00:00:41,746
We will mobilize the war machine!
21
00:00:41,895 --> 00:00:42,812
Fuck, yeah!
22
00:00:42,814 --> 00:00:44,080
I have never seen him like this.
23
00:00:44,082 --> 00:00:45,982
- You think I'm overreacting?
- Tell me more about
24
00:00:45,984 --> 00:00:47,917
- what he's doing.
- He's looking for a win.
25
00:00:47,919 --> 00:00:51,153
The defendant agrees to an
aggregate financial penalty
26
00:00:51,155 --> 00:00:52,950
of 1.9 billion dollars.
27
00:00:53,019 --> 00:00:55,019
Didn't he say that he
would never settle?
28
00:00:55,326 --> 00:00:56,826
That's what he's been saying.
29
00:00:56,828 --> 00:00:57,582
How did it happen?
30
00:00:57,613 --> 00:01:00,231
We can make that $1.9 back
in, what, eight months?
31
00:01:00,397 --> 00:01:01,270
Six.
32
00:01:01,295 --> 00:01:03,095
You'll never trade securities again,
33
00:01:03,267 --> 00:01:05,667
not even for yourself.
34
00:01:07,104 --> 00:01:09,104
- I can't live in the middle.
- You won't.
35
00:01:09,106 --> 00:01:11,673
I've decided, for the
good of our marriage,
36
00:01:11,675 --> 00:01:13,342
I've recused myself.
37
00:01:13,344 --> 00:01:16,210
You can count on me to
finish what you started.
38
00:01:16,212 --> 00:01:17,345
I'm all in.
39
00:01:17,347 --> 00:01:19,063
I'm still gonna need you
to keep me informed.
40
00:01:19,088 --> 00:01:21,522
Then you're not really recused.
41
00:01:21,785 --> 00:01:24,919
I am. Officially.
42
00:01:31,540 --> 00:01:34,574
- sync and corrections by Caio -
- www.addic7ed.com -
43
00:01:59,466 --> 00:02:01,867
Hey, wait up. Dad's over there.
44
00:02:01,869 --> 00:02:05,309
Again? You guys are bleeding me dry.
45
00:02:05,372 --> 00:02:08,240
Axelrods, you learned
good from your dad.
46
00:02:08,242 --> 00:02:10,208
Always let someone else float you,
47
00:02:10,210 --> 00:02:11,843
no matter how rich you are.
48
00:02:11,845 --> 00:02:14,313
- Thank you, Mr. Layner.
- Thanks, Dad.
49
00:02:14,315 --> 00:02:15,948
Another, honey.
50
00:02:32,298 --> 00:02:34,766
You guys could've bought
that crap for a nickel.
51
00:02:36,002 --> 00:02:39,303
Guess it doesn't matter to you guys.
Let's go.
52
00:02:39,305 --> 00:02:41,005
There?
53
00:02:42,208 --> 00:02:44,741
Hey, Bruce! Boys!
54
00:02:44,743 --> 00:02:46,077
Mommy, my soda!
55
00:02:46,079 --> 00:02:47,411
Shit.
56
00:02:49,349 --> 00:02:51,548
Okay, big guys.
57
00:03:10,535 --> 00:03:11,868
- Hi, Mom.
- Hi.
58
00:03:11,870 --> 00:03:14,304
- Hi, Mom.
- Hi.
59
00:03:14,306 --> 00:03:15,705
Later.
60
00:03:24,883 --> 00:03:26,949
So, how was it?
61
00:03:26,951 --> 00:03:28,985
- Great.
- Awesome.
62
00:03:30,321 --> 00:03:31,888
Hey.
63
00:03:31,890 --> 00:03:33,656
Are the kids home okay?
64
00:03:33,658 --> 00:03:35,491
Yeah. Why?
65
00:03:35,493 --> 00:03:36,993
I saw them with Bruce Layner,
66
00:03:36,995 --> 00:03:39,061
and it seemed like he was drinking.
67
00:03:39,063 --> 00:03:40,295
He was drinking.
68
00:03:40,297 --> 00:03:42,498
But I couldn't get to them in time.
69
00:03:46,137 --> 00:03:49,138
Thank you, Lilly. No, I
definitely needed that info.
70
00:03:49,140 --> 00:03:51,573
And I appreciate that you called.
71
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:56,912
Hey, guys, before you get in,
I need to ask you something.
72
00:03:56,914 --> 00:03:59,214
Was Mr. Layner acting weird?
73
00:04:01,117 --> 00:04:02,250
A little.
74
00:04:02,252 --> 00:04:03,952
He kept saying things about money.
75
00:04:03,954 --> 00:04:05,319
He tried to make us feel bad.
76
00:04:05,321 --> 00:04:06,955
And what else?
77
00:04:06,957 --> 00:04:09,157
Did he, like...
78
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:12,126
Was he drinking in the car?
79
00:04:12,128 --> 00:04:14,262
Answer your mother.
80
00:04:14,264 --> 00:04:15,697
He had a beer can in the car.
81
00:04:15,699 --> 00:04:17,365
I could smell it from the backseat.
82
00:04:17,367 --> 00:04:20,201
Why didn't you say something?
Why did you let him drive you?
83
00:04:20,203 --> 00:04:21,702
He's an adult.
84
00:04:21,704 --> 00:04:23,337
Are you sure he was drinking alcohol
85
00:04:23,339 --> 00:04:25,106
while he was driving you?
86
00:04:25,108 --> 00:04:26,907
Lilly said it was more than one.
87
00:04:26,909 --> 00:04:28,176
Yeah, Dad. He was.
88
00:04:30,513 --> 00:04:32,880
Bobby!
89
00:04:54,503 --> 00:04:56,736
Margy time!
90
00:04:59,141 --> 00:05:01,575
Who wants a Margy?
91
00:05:05,247 --> 00:05:06,980
Hey, hey, Axe!
92
00:05:06,982 --> 00:05:08,648
You drove my kids drunk?
93
00:05:08,650 --> 00:05:11,017
Whoa, man. I had a beer or two.
94
00:05:11,019 --> 00:05:13,820
Three tops. Hardly even buzzed.
95
00:05:13,822 --> 00:05:15,922
I got your precious,
fucking babies home.
96
00:05:15,924 --> 00:05:18,190
What? I will kill you, you motherfucker!
97
00:05:18,192 --> 00:05:20,059
- Uhh!
- Oh!
98
00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:25,030
Get up!
99
00:05:27,135 --> 00:05:30,068
That's gonna fucking cost you.
100
00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:31,670
Worth it.
101
00:05:31,672 --> 00:05:33,472
Someone call the police.
102
00:05:42,182 --> 00:05:44,783
Would you like a water
or a coffee, Mr. Spyros?
103
00:05:44,785 --> 00:05:47,218
I would love a cortado.
104
00:05:47,220 --> 00:05:48,486
Uh...
105
00:05:48,488 --> 00:05:49,888
We don't have a machine.
106
00:05:49,890 --> 00:05:51,690
Well, maybe someone can run out.
107
00:05:51,692 --> 00:05:54,325
It's just me on a Sunday.
108
00:05:54,327 --> 00:05:55,593
No, no. On me.
109
00:05:56,963 --> 00:05:59,664
Um... will they know what that is?
110
00:05:59,666 --> 00:06:01,266
Cortado.
111
00:06:01,268 --> 00:06:03,868
It's like a macchiato,
but with more foam.
112
00:06:03,870 --> 00:06:06,771
Microfoam. Silkier.
113
00:06:06,773 --> 00:06:08,873
Thanks, doll.
114
00:06:11,444 --> 00:06:13,077
Just so you know,
115
00:06:13,079 --> 00:06:14,779
I don't go for the price
of an espresso...
116
00:06:14,781 --> 00:06:17,815
or even a few espressi
117
00:06:17,817 --> 00:06:20,151
or for any price.
118
00:06:20,153 --> 00:06:23,087
You blew up the settlement conference.
119
00:06:23,089 --> 00:06:24,722
You recused yourself.
120
00:06:24,724 --> 00:06:27,758
So we have to come to
a new understanding
121
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,426
about my role.
122
00:06:29,428 --> 00:06:31,595
And it's gotta be a bigger one.
123
00:06:31,597 --> 00:06:33,930
A lead role.
124
00:06:33,932 --> 00:06:36,800
My stink is gonna be all over this now.
125
00:06:36,802 --> 00:06:38,168
As you point out,
126
00:06:38,170 --> 00:06:41,171
uh, I, myself, am recused from the case.
127
00:06:41,173 --> 00:06:42,406
On the outside.
128
00:06:42,408 --> 00:06:44,208
So how could I possibly be bound by...
129
00:06:44,210 --> 00:06:46,342
Oh, come on.
130
00:06:46,344 --> 00:06:49,112
We both know your recusal is for show.
131
00:06:49,114 --> 00:06:51,147
Don't make me dig out the old CB radio
132
00:06:51,149 --> 00:06:53,750
and call in a convoy of
reporters and investigators
133
00:06:53,752 --> 00:06:55,384
to examine it.
134
00:06:55,386 --> 00:06:57,220
Oh, maybe we interview your wife or...
135
00:06:57,222 --> 00:06:59,422
Okay.
136
00:06:59,424 --> 00:07:01,757
You win. Again.
137
00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:04,727
Uh, we did make a deal.
138
00:07:04,729 --> 00:07:07,330
And even though I was
under duress at the time,
139
00:07:07,332 --> 00:07:09,865
I will stick to it.
140
00:07:09,867 --> 00:07:11,634
So you'll come in one
afternoon this week
141
00:07:11,636 --> 00:07:12,968
when we're open for business.
142
00:07:12,970 --> 00:07:16,071
I will make sure that Connerty
has his entire team assembled,
143
00:07:16,073 --> 00:07:18,406
and they will run you through all of it.
144
00:07:18,408 --> 00:07:20,776
Work hand in hand with you and the SEC.
145
00:07:20,778 --> 00:07:24,146
No. Not hand in hand.
146
00:07:24,148 --> 00:07:26,815
I'm gonna run point on this,
147
00:07:26,817 --> 00:07:30,753
and I need to hear you say that
you're comfortable with that.
148
00:07:30,755 --> 00:07:33,989
I wanna be the fucking commandant.
149
00:07:38,061 --> 00:07:40,629
I'll pass word to my people.
150
00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:47,269
- Uh, what about your cortado?
- You drink it.
151
00:07:54,210 --> 00:07:56,610
Yeah, Dale?
152
00:07:56,612 --> 00:08:00,114
I'm gonna need Martina
Slovis's contact info now.
153
00:08:19,435 --> 00:08:21,702
I'm here for the Stewart bachelor party.
154
00:08:21,704 --> 00:08:23,937
Uh, right back there.
155
00:08:32,281 --> 00:08:35,248
Do all guys in my position hate
themselves for doing this?
156
00:08:35,250 --> 00:08:36,449
No reason you should.
157
00:08:36,451 --> 00:08:37,717
You're doing the right thing now.
158
00:08:37,719 --> 00:08:39,552
Not that they should.
It's just human nature.
159
00:08:39,554 --> 00:08:41,788
Look, Axelrod, you know,
sweeps his phones,
160
00:08:41,790 --> 00:08:43,589
hires security to defend himself.
161
00:08:43,591 --> 00:08:45,758
So believe me, on some level,
this is what he expects,
162
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,460
what he knows he deserves.
163
00:08:47,462 --> 00:08:48,561
Not from me.
164
00:08:48,563 --> 00:08:50,062
So feel a little bad then,
165
00:08:50,064 --> 00:08:51,497
but don't change what you're doing,
166
00:08:51,499 --> 00:08:52,965
like me with double cheeseburgers.
167
00:08:52,967 --> 00:08:56,235
No, but, Dale, you need to stop.
He needs to keep going.
168
00:08:56,237 --> 00:08:58,270
We need him to do a
deal with you directly.
169
00:08:58,272 --> 00:09:00,172
And when he does, we need you to confirm
170
00:09:00,174 --> 00:09:02,441
the source of the information,
that it's insider.
171
00:09:02,443 --> 00:09:04,710
Well, that's gonna be
hard to get him to do.
172
00:09:04,712 --> 00:09:07,612
That's why you're getting
such a cherry fucking deal
173
00:09:07,614 --> 00:09:10,082
for making it happen. Huh?
174
00:09:10,084 --> 00:09:12,918
Okay, let's get him wired up.
175
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:17,222
Sorry to bother,
176
00:09:17,224 --> 00:09:19,725
but I wanted to check
in on the Kemlot trade.
177
00:09:19,727 --> 00:09:21,860
And you canceled the
Sunday night call, so...
178
00:09:21,862 --> 00:09:23,829
It turned into a bit of a weekend.
179
00:09:23,831 --> 00:09:26,898
Okay. Uh, I want to know if
you think I should be ready
180
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:30,268
to pull the trigger
at the open tomorrow.
181
00:09:30,270 --> 00:09:32,570
Wait.
182
00:09:32,572 --> 00:09:35,773
- But you said...
- I'm not certain.
183
00:09:37,710 --> 00:09:39,810
Okay, then. Thanks.
184
00:09:42,615 --> 00:09:44,582
Uh, is everything all right?
185
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:49,086
Yeah. Yeah, like I said,
it was a bit of a weekend.
186
00:09:49,088 --> 00:09:52,155
Why don't you come in for a drink?
187
00:09:52,157 --> 00:09:53,791
It...
188
00:09:53,793 --> 00:09:55,926
It's more than understandable.
189
00:09:55,928 --> 00:09:57,695
Given the circumstance,
it was inevitable.
190
00:09:57,697 --> 00:09:59,597
The son of a bitch deserved it.
191
00:09:59,599 --> 00:10:03,300
But I earned my living by
staving off the inevitable.
192
00:10:03,302 --> 00:10:05,969
Let the other dogs drool
when the bell rings.
193
00:10:05,971 --> 00:10:07,670
I wait for the actual food to turn up.
194
00:10:07,672 --> 00:10:11,174
That way I get fed while
the rest howl in the wind.
195
00:10:11,176 --> 00:10:14,111
We don't get to choose
how and when we react.
196
00:10:14,113 --> 00:10:16,546
That's what the experiment proves.
197
00:10:16,548 --> 00:10:18,848
You've actually read
Pavlov's study, haven't you?
198
00:10:18,850 --> 00:10:22,018
Yeah. I was a psych/philosophy major.
199
00:10:22,020 --> 00:10:23,453
Minor in economic theory,
200
00:10:23,455 --> 00:10:26,155
which, at Yale, is like
another philosophy class.
201
00:10:26,157 --> 00:10:27,457
Broadness of thinking.
202
00:10:27,459 --> 00:10:30,059
That's the shit that
sets you apart, Donnie.
203
00:10:30,061 --> 00:10:31,694
It's this shit that used to distract me
204
00:10:31,696 --> 00:10:36,632
while the other guys were racking
up cartel-sized bonuses.
205
00:10:36,634 --> 00:10:39,802
No more.
206
00:10:39,804 --> 00:10:43,072
Look, no matter how civilized we get,
207
00:10:43,074 --> 00:10:44,573
at base, we are animals.
208
00:10:44,575 --> 00:10:46,108
Oh, yeah. I know. I know.
209
00:10:46,110 --> 00:10:50,512
I just wish I had... I...
210
00:10:50,514 --> 00:10:53,782
You, Donnie, you'd have shown restraint.
211
00:10:53,784 --> 00:10:55,083
For the sake of your kids.
212
00:10:55,085 --> 00:10:56,952
Me? My kids are gonna grow
up thinking that's the way
213
00:10:56,954 --> 00:10:59,755
- you're supposed to act.
- They didn't see it!
214
00:10:59,757 --> 00:11:01,690
They'll hear about it.
215
00:11:01,692 --> 00:11:03,058
They'll be embarrassed.
216
00:11:03,060 --> 00:11:04,860
Or worse, proud.
217
00:11:04,862 --> 00:11:06,027
Bullshit.
218
00:11:06,029 --> 00:11:08,330
They should damn well be proud.
219
00:11:08,332 --> 00:11:11,132
Their father stood tall for them.
220
00:11:12,936 --> 00:11:16,004
It did feel pretty good.
221
00:11:16,006 --> 00:11:18,873
If I could be that for my kids...
222
00:11:18,875 --> 00:11:20,875
You are...
223
00:11:20,877 --> 00:11:23,078
and you will continue to be.
224
00:11:30,620 --> 00:11:31,819
All right, okay.
225
00:11:31,821 --> 00:11:33,120
So let's go over what we've got so far.
226
00:11:33,122 --> 00:11:35,022
The CI is close to Axelrod.
227
00:11:35,024 --> 00:11:38,192
He has been leveraged and
he's highly motivated
228
00:11:38,194 --> 00:11:39,594
to save his own ass.
229
00:11:39,596 --> 00:11:42,863
Get Connerty in here this afternoon.
230
00:11:42,865 --> 00:11:44,398
Tell him to bring the team working
231
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,966
the Construction Bid Rigging RICO cases.
232
00:11:45,968 --> 00:11:48,735
I need an update.
233
00:11:48,737 --> 00:11:50,971
If word of this gets out, and it will,
234
00:11:50,973 --> 00:11:52,939
it's a major key problem.
235
00:11:52,941 --> 00:11:55,142
Your business faces
an existential threat
236
00:11:55,144 --> 00:11:56,877
if it's handled the wrong way.
237
00:11:56,879 --> 00:11:58,178
The professional damage,
238
00:11:58,180 --> 00:12:01,147
if you are convicted of even
simple misdemeanor assault...
239
00:12:01,149 --> 00:12:02,983
The prick drove our kids drunk.
240
00:12:02,985 --> 00:12:05,351
He's the one who should be prosecuted.
241
00:12:05,353 --> 00:12:07,320
He can't really press charges
'cause Bobby popped him.
242
00:12:07,322 --> 00:12:09,923
He will. He has to.
243
00:12:09,925 --> 00:12:11,858
It'll make his civil
case that much stronger.
244
00:12:11,860 --> 00:12:13,426
So we gotta control the narrative.
245
00:12:13,428 --> 00:12:15,194
I'm already getting texts
from gossip writers
246
00:12:15,196 --> 00:12:16,595
who've heard rumors.
247
00:12:16,597 --> 00:12:18,664
It's only a matter of time
before Layner's team p...
248
00:12:18,666 --> 00:12:21,100
And no doubt, he has a
team in place by now.
249
00:12:21,102 --> 00:12:23,102
Before they pick where
they wanna dump the story
250
00:12:23,104 --> 00:12:24,904
for maximum impact.
251
00:12:24,906 --> 00:12:26,605
So we get our version out first.
252
00:12:26,607 --> 00:12:28,374
You need your friend Lilly to speak up.
253
00:12:28,376 --> 00:12:29,875
Say that she saw Layner drinking,
254
00:12:29,877 --> 00:12:32,044
tried to stop him from
taking the kids in the car.
255
00:12:32,046 --> 00:12:33,946
- She won't.
- She will.
256
00:12:33,948 --> 00:12:35,080
I'll get to her today.
257
00:12:35,082 --> 00:12:37,149
I asked Chief Mueller to join us
258
00:12:37,151 --> 00:12:40,653
so can break down how things
will go at his former command...
259
00:12:40,655 --> 00:12:41,754
Southampton PD.
260
00:12:41,756 --> 00:12:44,156
Mr. Axelrod, I received some Intel
261
00:12:44,158 --> 00:12:45,691
just as I was arriving here today.
262
00:12:45,693 --> 00:12:48,160
The police out East may
have come into possession
263
00:12:48,162 --> 00:12:50,795
of a video of the incident
taking on someone's phone,
264
00:12:50,797 --> 00:12:53,198
which purports to show
you striking Mr. Layner.
265
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,534
- That should cut our way.
- I'm not so sure.
266
00:12:55,536 --> 00:12:57,469
- How bad is it?
- Well, I haven't seen it yet,
267
00:12:57,471 --> 00:12:59,204
but I've been told it's damning enough
268
00:12:59,206 --> 00:13:00,939
that they're planning on arresting you
269
00:13:00,941 --> 00:13:02,274
as early as tomorrow.
270
00:13:02,276 --> 00:13:04,876
But when Mr. Bach reached
out to me, I reached out.
271
00:13:04,878 --> 00:13:07,411
And fortunately, even though
I left the department
272
00:13:07,413 --> 00:13:10,448
seven years ago, that I'm still
remembered fondly back there.
273
00:13:10,450 --> 00:13:11,749
That's good for all of us.
274
00:13:11,751 --> 00:13:13,985
It would be a big help if
you could get confirmation
275
00:13:13,987 --> 00:13:15,352
of Layner's drinking.
276
00:13:15,354 --> 00:13:18,222
With that, the air goes out of
the balloon on prosecuting you.
277
00:13:18,224 --> 00:13:22,526
Without it, you'll likely
be indicted and tried.
278
00:13:22,528 --> 00:13:24,728
I'm arranging a back door
arrival at the station house
279
00:13:24,730 --> 00:13:28,399
for the two of us and Mr. Bach.
280
00:13:28,401 --> 00:13:30,801
Well, most people would
kill to have your career.
281
00:13:30,803 --> 00:13:32,269
Depending on what you want,
282
00:13:32,271 --> 00:13:34,705
I can get on the phone and bring
you a dozen offers by 5 p.m.
283
00:13:34,707 --> 00:13:37,108
Can we...
284
00:13:37,110 --> 00:13:39,876
Let's slow this down. I
need to be discreet.
285
00:13:39,878 --> 00:13:40,978
Understood.
286
00:13:40,980 --> 00:13:42,378
This is just a reconnaissance mission.
287
00:13:42,380 --> 00:13:43,546
I'm not committing here.
288
00:13:43,548 --> 00:13:45,616
Right. You're not sure what you want,
289
00:13:45,618 --> 00:13:49,152
which is a new feeling
for someone like you.
290
00:13:49,154 --> 00:13:51,922
That won't work on me.
I know all the tricks.
291
00:13:51,924 --> 00:13:54,024
I'm sure you do.
292
00:13:54,026 --> 00:13:56,226
Plus, you're brilliant.
293
00:13:56,228 --> 00:13:57,594
Billie always told me that
you were the smartest
294
00:13:57,596 --> 00:14:00,463
of all of her friends.
295
00:14:00,465 --> 00:14:03,299
She said nice things
about you, too, Chase.
296
00:14:03,301 --> 00:14:06,603
I'm not sure I want the
specifics behind that look.
297
00:14:06,605 --> 00:14:07,937
Good. That's all you're getting.
298
00:14:10,108 --> 00:14:12,108
All right, well, then
let's talk about you.
299
00:14:12,110 --> 00:14:14,409
What can I do for you to
help you figure this out?
300
00:14:14,411 --> 00:14:16,812
No hedge funds.
301
00:14:16,814 --> 00:14:19,682
Nothing in finance.
302
00:14:19,684 --> 00:14:22,051
I can't work for a competitor.
That would feel wrong.
303
00:14:22,053 --> 00:14:23,485
Well, that limits us.
304
00:14:23,487 --> 00:14:26,122
What's more important to you,
the comp or the work itself?
305
00:14:26,124 --> 00:14:28,624
Do I have to choose? I have both now.
306
00:14:28,626 --> 00:14:31,893
- It's rare. Both is hard.
- How hard?
307
00:14:31,895 --> 00:14:33,362
If you want to leave the hedgie world,
308
00:14:33,364 --> 00:14:34,563
nearly impossible.
309
00:14:34,565 --> 00:14:36,798
I don't know if I want to.
310
00:14:39,603 --> 00:14:41,537
It's what's best for my family.
311
00:14:43,607 --> 00:14:46,941
Well, corporate HR jobs with huge comp
312
00:14:46,943 --> 00:14:48,409
won't be hands-on with clients.
313
00:14:48,411 --> 00:14:51,079
And the rewarding work, like
the stuff you're doing now,
314
00:14:51,081 --> 00:14:53,548
digging deep with folks who
need to change quickly,
315
00:14:53,550 --> 00:14:56,317
that really only happens
in the nonprofit sector.
316
00:14:56,319 --> 00:14:58,753
You'll be living on
love instead of money.
317
00:14:58,755 --> 00:15:01,088
So you've got nothing for me.
318
00:15:01,090 --> 00:15:03,224
Nothing without a compromise.
319
00:15:03,226 --> 00:15:05,359
I wanna shoot straight with
you from the beginning,
320
00:15:05,361 --> 00:15:06,794
which is not usually how I work.
321
00:15:06,796 --> 00:15:08,796
Did you just say that out loud?
322
00:15:10,066 --> 00:15:11,832
For some reason, I don't
wanna bullshit you
323
00:15:11,834 --> 00:15:13,133
into giving me a retainer.
324
00:15:15,004 --> 00:15:17,270
I wonder why that is.
325
00:15:19,075 --> 00:15:20,874
You all have 'em.
326
00:15:20,876 --> 00:15:22,810
So-called friends at other funds
327
00:15:22,812 --> 00:15:24,812
who tell you that we're dinosaurs,
328
00:15:24,814 --> 00:15:27,147
oblivious to our own extinction.
329
00:15:27,149 --> 00:15:29,416
Are you gonna tell us they're
not our real friends, Mom?
330
00:15:29,418 --> 00:15:30,951
I'm gonna tell you
331
00:15:30,953 --> 00:15:32,986
that they're assholes... and wrong.
332
00:15:32,988 --> 00:15:36,122
While it's true we have
less outside money,
333
00:15:36,124 --> 00:15:37,591
the trade-off is freedom.
334
00:15:37,593 --> 00:15:39,892
- Yes.
- This is our time.
335
00:15:39,894 --> 00:15:42,962
Those of you in this room
will be telling the story
336
00:15:42,964 --> 00:15:45,332
years from now about how
we got up off the canvas
337
00:15:45,334 --> 00:15:47,066
and knocked the rest of 'em out.
338
00:15:47,068 --> 00:15:48,368
Yeah!
339
00:15:48,370 --> 00:15:49,603
In fact, we won't even
have to tell them,
340
00:15:49,605 --> 00:15:51,871
because they will all be
in here begging for jobs.
341
00:15:51,873 --> 00:15:53,639
Yeah!
342
00:15:53,641 --> 00:15:55,141
To that end, you know...
343
00:15:55,143 --> 00:15:57,143
- You know it.
- ...knocking folks out,
344
00:15:57,145 --> 00:15:58,945
a couple of us got you something, Axe.
345
00:15:58,947 --> 00:16:01,047
I mean, you earned it.
346
00:16:01,049 --> 00:16:03,415
We just picked it up.
347
00:16:03,417 --> 00:16:04,817
Whoo!
348
00:16:04,819 --> 00:16:06,318
- All right.
- There it is.
349
00:16:08,589 --> 00:16:10,556
We heard you knocked
that fucker on his ass.
350
00:16:40,654 --> 00:16:41,852
Hey.
351
00:16:48,662 --> 00:16:50,161
Well, you're certainly winning friends
352
00:16:50,163 --> 00:16:51,529
and influencing people these days.
353
00:16:51,531 --> 00:16:52,830
Oh, what do you want me to say?
354
00:16:52,832 --> 00:16:54,231
I shouldn't have thrown that punch.
355
00:16:54,233 --> 00:16:57,168
You've done a lot of rash things
you shouldn't have done lately.
356
00:16:57,170 --> 00:16:58,903
Oh. Oh, you're talking about
357
00:16:58,905 --> 00:17:01,071
that little sit-down with your husband?
358
00:17:01,073 --> 00:17:03,274
I am.
359
00:17:03,276 --> 00:17:04,708
You know, there's a
psychological profile
360
00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:06,210
for people who self-sabotage,
361
00:17:06,212 --> 00:17:09,713
and... you're starting to fit it.
362
00:17:13,319 --> 00:17:16,320
The term, when it comes to
that settlement meeting,
363
00:17:16,322 --> 00:17:19,122
is self-defense, not self-sabotage.
364
00:17:19,124 --> 00:17:21,024
I might've been wrong at the barbecue,
365
00:17:21,026 --> 00:17:24,027
but sometimes I gotta hit back.
366
00:17:24,029 --> 00:17:26,129
- The way I heard it...
- Don't worry about it.
367
00:17:26,131 --> 00:17:27,331
You just did what you thought was right,
368
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:29,532
and I appreciate that.
369
00:17:33,604 --> 00:17:37,673
But just think about
who had what to lose.
370
00:17:37,675 --> 00:17:41,577
I know that I went into that
room ready to make a deal.
371
00:17:48,085 --> 00:17:50,085
It just bugs me, you know?
372
00:17:50,087 --> 00:17:51,454
That Bobby clocked the guy?
373
00:17:51,456 --> 00:17:54,189
No, that the kids didn't pick
up that Layner was drunk,
374
00:17:54,191 --> 00:17:55,491
that they didn't call me.
375
00:17:55,493 --> 00:17:56,792
They had a phone?
376
00:17:56,794 --> 00:17:58,227
Yeah. They always do.
377
00:17:58,229 --> 00:18:01,597
They call me to tell me that
their Instagram isn't loading.
378
00:18:01,599 --> 00:18:03,498
They're just not street smart.
379
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:04,733
How are they gonna be street smart?
380
00:18:04,735 --> 00:18:05,934
They've never been in the streets.
381
00:18:05,936 --> 00:18:08,904
Yeah. Exactly.
382
00:18:08,906 --> 00:18:12,374
If our situation ever changed,
how would the boys deal with it?
383
00:18:18,182 --> 00:18:19,213
The last piece is,
384
00:18:19,215 --> 00:18:20,782
the contractor from the New Jersey firm
385
00:18:20,784 --> 00:18:23,451
kept records on three different devices.
386
00:18:23,453 --> 00:18:25,253
They're all in our possession.
387
00:18:25,255 --> 00:18:26,454
Trial is in six weeks.
388
00:18:26,456 --> 00:18:28,990
Great work. Thank you, guys.
389
00:18:28,992 --> 00:18:30,692
Take it easy this weekend, T., yeah?
390
00:18:30,694 --> 00:18:32,427
- Yeah, I'll try.
- Take your kid
391
00:18:32,429 --> 00:18:34,328
- to the batting cages.
- Mm.
392
00:18:34,330 --> 00:18:36,998
Uh, Bryan, hang in for a second.
393
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,400
Let's go over some of the details.
394
00:18:40,536 --> 00:18:42,870
Right.
395
00:18:45,875 --> 00:18:49,443
You have an informant in Axe Capital.
396
00:18:49,445 --> 00:18:52,078
Boss, we should stick to
the rules of recusal,
397
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,214
the old Chinese Wall, shouldn't we?
398
00:19:00,589 --> 00:19:02,022
Okay.
399
00:19:08,830 --> 00:19:11,398
So we've been profiling all the players
400
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,833
and scanning the activity at Axe Cap,
401
00:19:13,835 --> 00:19:16,502
and we see this Donnie Caan.
402
00:19:16,504 --> 00:19:18,871
Usually a mid-level guy, but suddenly,
403
00:19:18,873 --> 00:19:22,242
he loads up on Rubinex,
a biochem company.
404
00:19:22,244 --> 00:19:26,111
Loads way up. I mean, way
above his usual range.
405
00:19:26,113 --> 00:19:28,848
- Mm-hmm.
- The company, miraculously,
406
00:19:28,850 --> 00:19:31,083
gets an FDA seal of
approval on a product.
407
00:19:31,085 --> 00:19:32,852
Even more miraculously...
408
00:19:32,854 --> 00:19:34,320
Caan is already there,
409
00:19:34,322 --> 00:19:36,589
and he sells at a monster profit.
410
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,559
So I put the agents on,
411
00:19:39,561 --> 00:19:41,593
and then they start bloodhounding him.
412
00:19:41,595 --> 00:19:44,363
He couldn't provide the
research on the trade.
413
00:19:44,365 --> 00:19:45,697
He had no sign-offs from compliance.
414
00:19:45,699 --> 00:19:46,999
He didn't have dick.
415
00:19:47,001 --> 00:19:49,835
And our tech guys were
able to pull meta-data
416
00:19:49,837 --> 00:19:52,438
that established he'd been
in contact with insiders.
417
00:19:54,108 --> 00:19:55,674
We had him boxed up.
418
00:19:55,676 --> 00:19:57,409
He broke like a Mexican condom.
419
00:19:59,045 --> 00:20:00,846
He agreed to cooperate right away.
420
00:20:00,848 --> 00:20:03,081
I wanna help you, Lara.
421
00:20:03,083 --> 00:20:04,248
And Bobby.
422
00:20:04,250 --> 00:20:06,417
Oh. Great.
423
00:20:06,419 --> 00:20:09,187
And I would if I were sure, you know?
424
00:20:09,189 --> 00:20:11,356
Sure? You're the one who told me.
425
00:20:11,358 --> 00:20:12,824
I did.
426
00:20:12,826 --> 00:20:16,760
And I feel bad that I started
a whole thing, but...
427
00:20:16,762 --> 00:20:19,197
Keith told me that we can't
have any press right now,
428
00:20:19,199 --> 00:20:23,701
that it would fuck his business
badly to be near any of this.
429
00:20:23,703 --> 00:20:26,504
His business?
430
00:20:28,541 --> 00:20:30,274
He's my husband.
431
00:20:30,276 --> 00:20:31,609
Not much else I can say.
432
00:20:31,611 --> 00:20:33,711
I have to go.
433
00:20:33,713 --> 00:20:35,278
Maid's leaving at 3:00 today.
434
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,982
Some bullshit about taking
her kids to the doctor.
435
00:20:37,984 --> 00:20:39,483
Mm.
436
00:20:39,485 --> 00:20:40,684
Bye.
437
00:20:49,561 --> 00:20:51,628
I got your precious,
fucking babies home.
438
00:20:51,630 --> 00:20:53,730
What? I will kill you,
your motherfucker.
439
00:20:53,732 --> 00:20:55,632
- Uhh!
- Oh!
440
00:20:55,634 --> 00:20:57,401
Get up!
441
00:20:59,638 --> 00:21:02,305
That's gonna fucking cost you.
442
00:21:02,307 --> 00:21:03,907
Worth it.
443
00:21:03,909 --> 00:21:06,676
Someone call the police.
444
00:21:06,678 --> 00:21:08,545
The beginning... is there any more?
445
00:21:08,547 --> 00:21:10,212
That's all.
446
00:21:10,214 --> 00:21:12,949
Mm. This is not good.
447
00:21:15,954 --> 00:21:19,121
We need to get more of the
original video, if it exists.
448
00:21:19,123 --> 00:21:23,292
It'll tell a totally different
story about what happened.
449
00:21:23,294 --> 00:21:25,961
- Who had this?
- It's from Mike Dimonda.
450
00:21:25,963 --> 00:21:28,330
Says it landed in his
in-box this morning.
451
00:21:28,332 --> 00:21:29,865
An exclusive.
452
00:21:29,867 --> 00:21:32,201
- Well, he's doing us a solid.
- Not so solid.
453
00:21:32,203 --> 00:21:33,969
He knows that charges are being filed.
454
00:21:33,971 --> 00:21:35,304
He's requesting comment,
455
00:21:35,306 --> 00:21:38,807
wants to run something right away.
456
00:21:38,809 --> 00:21:40,141
Who filmed that?
457
00:21:40,143 --> 00:21:43,478
Dimonda won't say.
458
00:21:51,021 --> 00:21:52,554
Okay.
459
00:21:55,024 --> 00:21:58,025
There were 11 people in the backyard.
460
00:21:58,027 --> 00:21:59,760
There were two on the
other side of the pool.
461
00:21:59,762 --> 00:22:01,362
They didn't have a good view.
462
00:22:01,364 --> 00:22:03,431
The video was from my left side.
463
00:22:03,433 --> 00:22:07,835
There were only... six
people on my left.
464
00:22:07,837 --> 00:22:10,104
One of them was Layner's wife.
465
00:22:10,106 --> 00:22:12,640
She was holding a platter.
She didn't have an iPhone.
466
00:22:12,642 --> 00:22:14,475
Layner's kids were there...
467
00:22:17,246 --> 00:22:19,246
...and his son from his first marriage.
468
00:22:19,248 --> 00:22:20,447
It wasn't him either.
469
00:22:20,449 --> 00:22:22,984
He was still wet and had
his bathing suit on.
470
00:22:27,523 --> 00:22:29,423
That kid's girlfriend.
471
00:22:29,425 --> 00:22:32,426
There was another girl
472
00:22:32,428 --> 00:22:35,529
standing next to her,
about the same age... 17.
473
00:22:35,531 --> 00:22:37,831
Neither of them had been in the pool.
474
00:22:37,833 --> 00:22:39,600
Each of them had a phone out.
475
00:22:39,602 --> 00:22:40,601
Holy shit!
476
00:22:40,603 --> 00:22:42,302
I fucking love when you do that.
477
00:22:42,304 --> 00:22:43,737
Your love is touching,
478
00:22:43,739 --> 00:22:47,340
but what I need right now is
to find that original video.
479
00:22:47,342 --> 00:22:49,542
Find it, pay what we need, get it.
480
00:22:57,185 --> 00:22:58,852
I have to go to the Hamptons.
481
00:23:21,575 --> 00:23:22,975
Ah. Tommy.
482
00:23:22,977 --> 00:23:24,309
How you doing, Chief?
483
00:23:24,311 --> 00:23:26,411
I tell you, I've been better.
484
00:23:26,413 --> 00:23:29,114
Summers out here enough to
make you long for martial law.
485
00:23:30,517 --> 00:23:31,784
You remember what it's like.
486
00:23:31,786 --> 00:23:34,252
- Ah, sorry to hear it.
- Ah, don't be.
487
00:23:34,254 --> 00:23:36,754
It'd be better if, in
addition to the college kids
488
00:23:36,756 --> 00:23:39,691
and regular dirtbags, I
didn't have my billionaires
489
00:23:39,693 --> 00:23:41,326
punching out my multimillionaires.
490
00:23:41,328 --> 00:23:42,627
It's bad for business.
491
00:23:42,629 --> 00:23:45,463
Well, that's why we're here,
to make your life easier.
492
00:23:45,465 --> 00:23:49,133
We wanna quash this thing.
No need for news stories.
493
00:23:49,135 --> 00:23:51,402
No need for undue chatter.
494
00:23:51,404 --> 00:23:53,738
Sure. Of course.
495
00:23:53,740 --> 00:23:56,040
I lift the rug, and you guys sweep?
496
00:23:56,042 --> 00:23:59,610
Or were you thinking vice versa,
and I make with the broom?
497
00:23:59,612 --> 00:24:01,478
Come on, Tommy, we both know
498
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,581
this is probably gonna end
up in a payment situation.
499
00:24:03,583 --> 00:24:05,982
Why don't we work together
and get there sooner?
500
00:24:05,984 --> 00:24:08,952
Uh-huh. Not so easy.
501
00:24:08,954 --> 00:24:10,521
I've seen the video.
502
00:24:10,523 --> 00:24:15,326
When it goes public, there's
gonna be a lot of pressure.
503
00:24:15,328 --> 00:24:18,729
So we'll take a statement of Mr.
Axelrod's version of events.
504
00:24:18,731 --> 00:24:20,731
If Mr. Layner refuses to relent,
505
00:24:20,733 --> 00:24:23,533
if he insists on pressing charges,
506
00:24:23,535 --> 00:24:27,003
if the DA doesn't like what he
hears and chooses to proceed,
507
00:24:27,005 --> 00:24:30,340
well, courtesy or not, Chief,
508
00:24:30,342 --> 00:24:32,008
it'll be out of my hands.
509
00:24:33,278 --> 00:24:35,578
- Hey, sweetheart.
- Hey, baby.
510
00:24:35,580 --> 00:24:36,713
What's the latest?
511
00:24:36,715 --> 00:24:38,881
Oh, you know.
512
00:24:38,883 --> 00:24:40,783
Kevin had a friend over from school.
513
00:24:40,785 --> 00:24:42,418
Told Eva she could hang, too,
514
00:24:42,420 --> 00:24:44,186
and then pretty much ignored her.
515
00:24:44,188 --> 00:24:45,655
How'd that play out?
516
00:24:45,657 --> 00:24:48,190
She cried, and then he was nicer.
517
00:24:48,192 --> 00:24:52,128
Oh. So a normal weekday
afternoon negotiation, huh?
518
00:24:52,130 --> 00:24:54,864
- Speaking of...
- Mm-hmm?
519
00:24:56,533 --> 00:24:58,467
Mmm.
520
00:24:58,469 --> 00:25:00,402
How did the, uh,
521
00:25:00,404 --> 00:25:04,140
breakdown of the settlement play out?
522
00:25:04,142 --> 00:25:06,075
'Cause the way you described
it didn't sound...
523
00:25:06,077 --> 00:25:08,077
Yeah. Well...
524
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:11,480
Well, I'll tell you, uh...
525
00:25:11,482 --> 00:25:14,149
Things were all
pre-negotiated, laid out.
526
00:25:14,151 --> 00:25:17,653
But, you know, these conferences are...
527
00:25:17,655 --> 00:25:19,821
unpredictable. Tensions are high.
528
00:25:19,823 --> 00:25:23,258
Certain realities set in.
529
00:25:23,260 --> 00:25:27,228
And, uh, big game fish often
has one final thrash in him
530
00:25:27,230 --> 00:25:29,030
as he gets close to the boat.
531
00:25:33,736 --> 00:25:38,139
Anyway, as I said, then...
532
00:25:38,141 --> 00:25:39,340
he tore up the check.
533
00:25:44,914 --> 00:25:46,180
We have the Gilberts tomorrow night.
534
00:25:47,283 --> 00:25:50,651
They could only get a
table at 7:30, so...
535
00:25:50,653 --> 00:25:53,621
make sure you can get there in time.
536
00:25:53,623 --> 00:25:55,523
No chance of a reschedule?
537
00:25:55,525 --> 00:25:56,724
This is the reschedule...
538
00:25:56,726 --> 00:25:58,392
of a reschedule.
539
00:25:58,394 --> 00:26:00,060
What?
540
00:26:00,062 --> 00:26:01,728
I don't know. It's just I'm...
541
00:26:01,730 --> 00:26:03,496
I'm just a little bit creeped out
542
00:26:03,498 --> 00:26:04,865
by how close those two are.
543
00:26:04,867 --> 00:26:06,934
They're married.
Shouldn't they be close?
544
00:26:08,938 --> 00:26:12,039
Not that close.
545
00:26:13,242 --> 00:26:15,108
Oh, thank you.
546
00:26:16,812 --> 00:26:19,746
Mmm. That's great, Ryan.
547
00:26:19,748 --> 00:26:22,515
My breakfast kind of sucks.
548
00:26:22,517 --> 00:26:24,050
What did you just say?
549
00:26:24,052 --> 00:26:25,785
I'm sick of cheese omelettes.
550
00:26:25,787 --> 00:26:27,354
The cheese is kind of sticky.
551
00:26:27,356 --> 00:26:29,489
No sweat, big guy. What can I make you?
552
00:26:29,491 --> 00:26:30,923
Nothing. The omelettes are great,
553
00:26:30,925 --> 00:26:32,459
and both of you are finishing them.
554
00:26:32,461 --> 00:26:35,761
But these are lame, and we have
them, like, almost every day.
555
00:26:35,763 --> 00:26:38,130
And Dad never makes
us finish our plates.
556
00:26:38,132 --> 00:26:40,333
First, apologize to Chef Ryan.
557
00:26:40,335 --> 00:26:42,168
Sorry.
558
00:26:42,170 --> 00:26:43,669
And now let's go.
559
00:26:43,671 --> 00:26:47,006
- Where?
- Get in the car. Now.
560
00:26:51,178 --> 00:26:52,878
Why is the water brown?
561
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,546
It just is. Now get in.
562
00:26:58,719 --> 00:26:59,918
It's cold!
563
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:01,119
I wanna leave.
564
00:27:01,121 --> 00:27:02,521
Stop whining, or I'll throw you in.
565
00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:07,658
What are we doing?
566
00:27:07,660 --> 00:27:08,960
You're clamming.
567
00:27:08,962 --> 00:27:12,197
When I was a kid, me and
Aunt Lu and all your uncles,
568
00:27:12,199 --> 00:27:13,531
we had to come out here with Grandma
569
00:27:13,533 --> 00:27:15,967
and collect 50 clams for Sunday
dinner or we didn't eat.
570
00:27:15,969 --> 00:27:18,370
And that taught us something about work,
571
00:27:18,372 --> 00:27:20,438
about earning our own living.
572
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,640
What do we do?
573
00:27:22,642 --> 00:27:25,109
You feel with your feet on
the bottom for littlenecks.
574
00:27:25,111 --> 00:27:26,477
Like this.
575
00:27:26,479 --> 00:27:28,012
You shimmy.
576
00:27:33,953 --> 00:27:36,353
So how many do you want us to get?
577
00:27:36,355 --> 00:27:37,789
Well, you eat what you catch,
578
00:27:37,791 --> 00:27:40,457
so you get as many as you can
before the tide goes out.
579
00:27:40,459 --> 00:27:42,126
When's that?
580
00:27:42,128 --> 00:27:45,162
About four hours from now.
581
00:27:50,303 --> 00:27:51,735
You know I didn't drive all
the way up here to Westport
582
00:27:51,737 --> 00:27:53,770
to give out "attaboys."
583
00:27:53,772 --> 00:27:56,840
Had to bring the kick-ass. With love.
584
00:27:56,842 --> 00:27:58,408
Rumblings got to me.
585
00:27:58,410 --> 00:28:01,044
I hate motherfucking rumblings
586
00:28:01,046 --> 00:28:03,413
because truth is always underneath 'em.
587
00:28:03,415 --> 00:28:05,982
You hit some guy and knocked him out.
588
00:28:05,984 --> 00:28:08,752
Down. Not out.
589
00:28:08,754 --> 00:28:11,254
A fine distinction.
590
00:28:11,256 --> 00:28:12,722
Thanks, Wags.
591
00:28:12,724 --> 00:28:14,723
I hung in after Dollar
Bill got arrested,
592
00:28:14,725 --> 00:28:17,126
because if anyone knows you
can't let one miscreant
593
00:28:17,128 --> 00:28:20,229
tattoo a whole place, it's an ex-cop.
594
00:28:20,231 --> 00:28:22,365
But if people think you're
feeling the pressure,
595
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:24,900
acting out, hitting
folks, for fuck's sake,
596
00:28:24,902 --> 00:28:26,702
they will run for the exits.
597
00:28:26,704 --> 00:28:28,537
Banks'll even look at you
as a shaky investment.
598
00:28:28,539 --> 00:28:30,439
Credit'll start drying up.
599
00:28:30,441 --> 00:28:31,841
I won't let that happen.
600
00:28:31,843 --> 00:28:33,509
The time to not let that happen
was before you threw the punch.
601
00:28:33,511 --> 00:28:36,512
Last thing I want to
do is pull my money,
602
00:28:36,514 --> 00:28:38,581
but I will.
603
00:28:38,583 --> 00:28:41,617
If you take a conviction,
even for a misdemeanor,
604
00:28:41,619 --> 00:28:44,319
we are gone.
605
00:28:44,321 --> 00:28:47,155
Settle your trouble.
606
00:28:47,157 --> 00:28:49,124
Get a non-disclosure form signed.
607
00:28:49,126 --> 00:28:52,494
I know. Thanks for coming in person.
608
00:28:57,034 --> 00:29:00,535
Dimonda said he vetted the
story and it's ready to run,
609
00:29:00,537 --> 00:29:02,504
with or without comment.
610
00:29:02,506 --> 00:29:05,271
Get me a meeting with
him before he posts it.
611
00:29:07,476 --> 00:29:10,944
Ari Spyros, live and in person.
612
00:29:10,946 --> 00:29:12,379
Any special beverage requests?
613
00:29:12,381 --> 00:29:13,514
No, not today, Chuck.
614
00:29:13,516 --> 00:29:14,715
I'm just looking forward
to seeing the team.
615
00:29:14,717 --> 00:29:16,016
Oh, you'll see, all right.
616
00:29:16,018 --> 00:29:19,052
I think you're gonna find
this pretty interesting.
617
00:29:19,054 --> 00:29:20,787
Right in there.
618
00:29:20,789 --> 00:29:24,224
Martina Slovis.
619
00:29:26,528 --> 00:29:30,163
I warned you, if you fucked with me...
620
00:29:30,165 --> 00:29:32,265
holy hell.
621
00:29:36,038 --> 00:29:39,304
Did you ever wonder why we
weren't pals anymore, Spyros?
622
00:29:39,306 --> 00:29:42,341
I mean, we were in study
groups together at law school.
623
00:29:42,343 --> 00:29:45,411
Lawyers league softball team.
624
00:29:46,714 --> 00:29:49,314
I thought it was just an
inter-agency rivalry.
625
00:29:49,316 --> 00:29:51,617
Mm. Think back.
626
00:29:51,619 --> 00:29:54,420
It's before you were
at SEC and I was here.
627
00:29:54,422 --> 00:29:55,820
Summer of 2005,
628
00:29:55,822 --> 00:29:59,091
the Willigut Farley mixer at Moran's.
629
00:29:59,093 --> 00:30:02,528
I saw her at the bar, Martina Slovis.
630
00:30:02,530 --> 00:30:05,364
She was a summer associate
in corporate work.
631
00:30:05,366 --> 00:30:09,501
I pointed you out, said
that I'd come in with you,
632
00:30:09,503 --> 00:30:11,302
and she went white.
633
00:30:12,773 --> 00:30:14,673
Absolutely white.
634
00:30:14,675 --> 00:30:17,809
And she just said the words,
635
00:30:17,811 --> 00:30:21,613
"Ari Spyros raped me."
636
00:30:27,487 --> 00:30:30,488
And you... you believed her?
637
00:30:30,490 --> 00:30:32,690
We've been friends for six years.
638
00:30:32,692 --> 00:30:34,292
I wasn't totally convinced,
639
00:30:34,294 --> 00:30:36,961
until I found you at the table later.
640
00:30:36,963 --> 00:30:39,330
And I said,
641
00:30:39,332 --> 00:30:41,499
"Guess who I just ran into at the bar?
642
00:30:41,501 --> 00:30:44,534
Martina Slovis."
643
00:30:44,536 --> 00:30:46,169
You remember what you said?
644
00:30:48,340 --> 00:30:52,175
"I fucked that little piece.
What'd she say?"
645
00:30:54,313 --> 00:30:55,813
That's when I knew.
646
00:30:55,815 --> 00:30:57,081
You can't...
647
00:30:57,083 --> 00:30:59,182
Okay, don't. That's enough.
648
00:30:59,184 --> 00:31:01,118
Sick.
649
00:31:02,588 --> 00:31:04,721
It would be he said, she said.
650
00:31:04,723 --> 00:31:06,523
The statutes have run.
651
00:31:06,525 --> 00:31:09,493
We both know what it was.
652
00:31:09,495 --> 00:31:13,230
You destroyed a good part
of that woman's life.
653
00:31:13,232 --> 00:31:15,398
And she will work with me
to destroy all of yours
654
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,601
if you don't fall the
fuck back into line!
655
00:31:20,071 --> 00:31:23,305
From here on in, I tell you
your position in this,
656
00:31:23,307 --> 00:31:25,574
if you have one at all.
657
00:31:31,449 --> 00:31:32,682
So?
658
00:31:32,684 --> 00:31:34,116
Um...
659
00:31:34,118 --> 00:31:36,285
Well, she said she was
surprised to get the call
660
00:31:36,287 --> 00:31:38,154
considering she just went
back and got her degree
661
00:31:38,156 --> 00:31:39,288
a few years ago.
662
00:31:39,290 --> 00:31:40,623
Hasn't really practiced.
663
00:31:40,625 --> 00:31:42,924
She's living near
Philly with young kids,
664
00:31:42,926 --> 00:31:45,628
said she wasn't thinking
about going back to work.
665
00:31:45,630 --> 00:31:46,695
If you don't mind me saying so,
666
00:31:46,697 --> 00:31:47,796
there's lots of lawyers out there
667
00:31:47,798 --> 00:31:49,097
with much stronger
litigation experience.
668
00:31:49,099 --> 00:31:50,231
But I have notes on the interview.
669
00:31:50,233 --> 00:31:52,167
No. Of course. It was just an idea.
670
00:31:52,169 --> 00:31:54,435
Uh, pay for her ticket back
671
00:31:54,437 --> 00:31:56,538
and put her on the reference
list at the Philly office.
672
00:31:56,540 --> 00:31:57,973
Mm-hmm.
673
00:31:57,975 --> 00:31:59,474
I look forward to reading your notes.
Thank you.
674
00:31:59,476 --> 00:32:00,842

Let's hear it for Nick,

689
00:32:41,983 --> 00:32:43,450
Yeah. And Sal...
690
00:32:43,452 --> 00:32:45,586
He still... he still makes me pay.
691
00:32:47,155 --> 00:32:49,022
I heard you ate everything on your plate
692
00:32:49,024 --> 00:32:51,491
at the last joint, but you've
been shy about going back.
693
00:32:51,493 --> 00:32:53,694
I need to be careful whose
tab I'm seen dining on.
694
00:32:53,696 --> 00:32:57,430
And I'm not that comfortable
among the, uh, one percenters.
695
00:32:57,432 --> 00:33:00,233
Well, a place like this,
a lot of these guys,
696
00:33:00,235 --> 00:33:02,435
they don't show any income at all.
697
00:33:02,437 --> 00:33:04,771
Yeah, but you didn't
bring me here to eat
698
00:33:04,773 --> 00:33:09,142
and gossip about wiseguys.
699
00:33:09,144 --> 00:33:12,612
You want to address the
story and the video.
700
00:33:12,614 --> 00:33:14,380
And you're leading the pack with it.
701
00:33:14,382 --> 00:33:16,148
Very impressive reporting.
702
00:33:16,150 --> 00:33:18,351
Yeah. I landed it.
703
00:33:18,353 --> 00:33:19,785
And I'm running it.
704
00:33:19,787 --> 00:33:21,420
I'm not gonna spike it,
705
00:33:21,422 --> 00:33:24,390
despite how good the
veal chops are here.
706
00:33:24,392 --> 00:33:25,758
No, of course not.
707
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,195
But that's not what we're talking about.
708
00:33:30,197 --> 00:33:32,798
We're talking about a short hold.
709
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,199
A day.
710
00:33:34,201 --> 00:33:36,468
So you still got a shot
of being in the lead,
711
00:33:36,470 --> 00:33:39,371
and you flying to Aspen to meet
with a certain network chairman
712
00:33:39,373 --> 00:33:41,173
about a show of your own.
713
00:33:41,175 --> 00:33:44,877
Charlie Rose has got to move
on at some point, right?
714
00:33:44,879 --> 00:33:47,044
I can't accept a trip from you.
715
00:33:47,046 --> 00:33:50,214
Won't be with me or my plane.
716
00:33:50,216 --> 00:33:51,683
- Someone will see me.
- No.
717
00:33:51,685 --> 00:33:53,285
You'll land on a private strip
718
00:33:53,287 --> 00:33:56,020
on private land.
719
00:34:00,727 --> 00:34:04,228
Then I can't see myself
running the piece tonight.
720
00:34:09,568 --> 00:34:12,403
Mmm. Yummy.
721
00:34:12,405 --> 00:34:14,939
This is yummy.
722
00:34:14,941 --> 00:34:16,274
For years, I couldn't eat tripe.
723
00:34:16,276 --> 00:34:18,509
I thought I could still
smell the shit in it.
724
00:34:18,511 --> 00:34:20,377
Then I hypnotized him out of it.
725
00:34:20,379 --> 00:34:21,612
- Mm.
- Mmm.
726
00:34:21,614 --> 00:34:24,281
You going for hypnotism now, Nancy?
727
00:34:24,283 --> 00:34:25,349
- Oh.
- Huh?
728
00:34:25,351 --> 00:34:26,350
- It only works on him.
- Ah.
729
00:34:26,352 --> 00:34:28,084
I stare into his eyes,
730
00:34:28,086 --> 00:34:31,154
he locks in on me...
731
00:34:31,156 --> 00:34:33,123
and we will the change.
732
00:34:33,125 --> 00:34:35,458
Work it does.
733
00:34:35,460 --> 00:34:36,960
Can't even smell my own shit anymore.
734
00:34:38,931 --> 00:34:41,564
I think from a, uh,
biological standpoint,
735
00:34:41,566 --> 00:34:43,633
there's a reason we smell our shit, hmm?
736
00:34:43,635 --> 00:34:47,503
I think it's sweet, Chuck. I
wish I could hypnotize you.
737
00:34:47,505 --> 00:34:49,439
How do you think you
got me here tonight?
738
00:35:00,318 --> 00:35:01,617
So how's work?
739
00:35:01,619 --> 00:35:02,885
- Mm.
- It's great.
740
00:35:02,887 --> 00:35:05,020
You know, when we started
this little business,
741
00:35:05,022 --> 00:35:06,589
we thought it was gonna be the two of us
742
00:35:06,591 --> 00:35:09,624
selling our boutique robes
practically door-to-door.
743
00:35:09,626 --> 00:35:12,527
And now we've got 40 employees,
744
00:35:12,529 --> 00:35:14,830
and half the luxury hotels in America
745
00:35:14,832 --> 00:35:17,299
have our bathrobes on the bathroom door.
746
00:35:17,301 --> 00:35:19,101
- Mm-hmm.
- It is an amazing success story.
747
00:35:19,103 --> 00:35:20,502
And to think,
748
00:35:20,504 --> 00:35:22,338
you two are doing it together all day.
749
00:35:22,340 --> 00:35:23,472
- Mm.
- Yeah.
750
00:35:23,474 --> 00:35:24,606
I never understood that part.
751
00:35:24,608 --> 00:35:26,441
- Hmm?
- How a husband and wife
752
00:35:26,443 --> 00:35:29,043
can be like, uh, Siamese twins.
753
00:35:29,045 --> 00:35:30,445
Conjoined, Chuck.
754
00:35:30,447 --> 00:35:31,680
Sure.
755
00:35:31,682 --> 00:35:34,449
Uh, no, I just... I'm
just saying that I...
756
00:35:34,451 --> 00:35:36,918
I don't get how you do the
24-hours-a-day thing.
757
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,788
All day, every day.
758
00:35:39,790 --> 00:35:42,590
Don't you ever just want to, uh...
759
00:35:42,592 --> 00:35:44,658
Wanna what?
760
00:35:44,660 --> 00:35:45,994
- No.
- Yeah?
761
00:35:45,996 --> 00:35:48,997
17 years later, we can't
imagine it any other way.
762
00:35:48,999 --> 00:35:50,831
We weren't always like this.
763
00:35:50,833 --> 00:35:52,233
For the first few years in our marriage,
764
00:35:52,235 --> 00:35:53,768
- we each had our own lives.
- Mm-hmm.
765
00:35:53,770 --> 00:35:54,903
Siloed.
766
00:35:54,905 --> 00:35:57,772
But we made a conscious
decision to live as one.
767
00:35:57,774 --> 00:35:59,273
We started the business,
768
00:35:59,275 --> 00:36:02,276
- commute together every day.
- Yeah.
769
00:36:02,278 --> 00:36:03,844
Shared passwords with each other.
770
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,749
You know, we recently
crossed the final frontier.
771
00:36:08,751 --> 00:36:11,419
- We have the same password.
- Yeah.
772
00:36:11,421 --> 00:36:14,521
That's, um... that's not very secure.
773
00:36:16,525 --> 00:36:20,760
I mean, we know each other's
passwords, too. Don't we?
774
00:36:20,762 --> 00:36:23,130
Yeah. Was yours still the
same from two years ago...
775
00:36:23,132 --> 00:36:24,597
- Yeah.
- when I reset your hard drive?
776
00:36:24,599 --> 00:36:25,799
- Mm-hmm.
- Ah.
777
00:36:25,801 --> 00:36:27,134
You?
778
00:36:27,136 --> 00:36:30,570
Uh, well, you know, we have
to reset every nine months.
779
00:36:32,407 --> 00:36:34,541
I didn't not tell you.
It just didn't occur.
780
00:36:34,543 --> 00:36:37,544
- Mm.
- I would, of course, so I will.
781
00:36:37,546 --> 00:36:39,546
I will.
782
00:36:39,548 --> 00:36:41,581
We're close, but not conjoined.
783
00:36:41,583 --> 00:36:44,050
We divide responsibilities at work.
784
00:36:44,052 --> 00:36:46,820
- Hmm? How?
- Well...
785
00:36:46,822 --> 00:36:49,021
I handle the hugs. She
takes care of the kisses.
786
00:36:57,065 --> 00:36:58,264
Jesus Christ,
787
00:36:58,266 --> 00:36:59,432
did they really say that?
788
00:36:59,434 --> 00:37:00,732
I... You know,
789
00:37:00,734 --> 00:37:03,269
maybe that's what a normal
relationship looks like.
790
00:37:04,505 --> 00:37:07,372
You went to med school
and practiced analysis.
791
00:37:07,374 --> 00:37:10,208
Have you ever seen anything like that?
792
00:37:10,210 --> 00:37:13,044
Come on. Nobody can be that in love...
793
00:37:13,046 --> 00:37:14,880
...after 17 years.
794
00:37:14,882 --> 00:37:17,015
There's no way you make googly eyes
795
00:37:17,017 --> 00:37:18,617
at each other all day,
796
00:37:18,619 --> 00:37:20,118
and then get home and
still want to fuck.
797
00:37:44,410 --> 00:37:46,611
We have to toughen up the kids.
798
00:37:48,381 --> 00:37:49,747
They'll get tough when they need to.
799
00:37:49,749 --> 00:37:51,315
Yeah? How?
800
00:37:51,317 --> 00:37:53,650
Everything's served up
for them on a platter.
801
00:37:53,652 --> 00:37:54,751
The way we grew up,
802
00:37:54,753 --> 00:37:56,786
we had to learn how to
take care of ourselves.
803
00:37:56,788 --> 00:38:00,290
Yeah, sure. We learned to
scratch and claw for ours.
804
00:38:00,292 --> 00:38:01,892
Not all upside, though.
805
00:38:01,894 --> 00:38:03,593
- No?
- No.
806
00:38:03,595 --> 00:38:05,629
Remember when we first got together?
807
00:38:05,631 --> 00:38:07,731
I was still an animal. I was too hard.
808
00:38:07,733 --> 00:38:10,634
Not the sensitive flower you are today?
809
00:38:10,636 --> 00:38:14,738
Exactly. I had to work to soften up.
810
00:38:14,740 --> 00:38:16,606
You worked me over.
811
00:38:16,608 --> 00:38:20,343
And being thorny still
gets me in trouble.
812
00:38:20,345 --> 00:38:23,013
Yeah, well, I'd be willing for
them to go in that direction.
813
00:38:23,015 --> 00:38:24,748
You always said that the desperation
814
00:38:24,750 --> 00:38:26,782
is what gave you an edge
over the rich kids.
815
00:38:26,784 --> 00:38:28,251
They are the rich kids.
816
00:38:28,253 --> 00:38:30,319
Where are they gonna get their grit?
817
00:38:30,321 --> 00:38:33,189
All right.
818
00:38:33,191 --> 00:38:35,258
We'll put 'em on a fishing
trawler for the summer,
819
00:38:35,260 --> 00:38:36,526
stick them in the Foreign Legion.
820
00:38:36,528 --> 00:38:38,327
They'll be men when we pick 'em up.
821
00:38:38,329 --> 00:38:40,063
This is serious.
822
00:38:43,601 --> 00:38:45,668
I hear you.
823
00:38:45,670 --> 00:38:48,637
Whatever you come up with,
you know I'll support.
824
00:38:48,639 --> 00:38:50,940
Yeah. Hmm?
825
00:39:14,663 --> 00:39:16,897
Mm.
826
00:39:44,892 --> 00:39:47,026
- May I?
- Yeah.
827
00:39:49,531 --> 00:39:50,630
You know...
828
00:39:50,632 --> 00:39:53,466
I'm actually glad you
have this Axe thing now.
829
00:39:53,468 --> 00:39:54,667
I can devote myself
830
00:39:54,669 --> 00:39:56,736
to the hundred other cases I'm building.
831
00:39:56,738 --> 00:39:58,504
I want you to know that.
832
00:39:58,506 --> 00:40:01,007
I'm glad to hear you say that, boss.
833
00:40:01,009 --> 00:40:02,875
Yeah.
834
00:40:02,877 --> 00:40:06,946
I just wish I were sure about
this informant you have.
835
00:40:08,382 --> 00:40:10,016
Uh-huh.
836
00:40:10,018 --> 00:40:11,750
I mean, he sounds all right,
the way you describe it,
837
00:40:11,752 --> 00:40:12,917
so that's good.
838
00:40:12,919 --> 00:40:16,921
But then, you don't have
anything concrete yet.
839
00:40:16,923 --> 00:40:18,723
- Early days.
- Mm-hmm.
840
00:40:18,725 --> 00:40:20,825
You know, one thing I
used to do to informants
841
00:40:20,827 --> 00:40:22,060
when I had your job,
842
00:40:22,062 --> 00:40:24,463
every few weeks, I'd rough
'em up a little bit.
843
00:40:24,465 --> 00:40:27,299
Really made sure they knew
the spot I had 'em in.
844
00:40:27,301 --> 00:40:29,701
Little motivational session.
845
00:40:29,703 --> 00:40:31,069
Yes.
846
00:40:31,071 --> 00:40:33,604
I have to meet with him soon,
anyway, to give him the script
847
00:40:33,606 --> 00:40:35,439
to get Axe to really
incriminate himself.
848
00:40:35,441 --> 00:40:36,541
- Mm-hmm.
- Mm.
849
00:40:36,543 --> 00:40:38,643
You know, Axe knows people everywhere,
850
00:40:38,645 --> 00:40:40,879
so make sure you use a secure location.
851
00:40:40,881 --> 00:40:42,947
There's a place I've used.
852
00:40:42,949 --> 00:40:44,049
Very secure.
853
00:40:44,051 --> 00:40:47,117
No chance that Axe is hooked in there.
854
00:40:47,119 --> 00:40:50,020
I don't want to overstep,
make an actual suggestion.
855
00:40:50,022 --> 00:40:52,223
I'm sure you don't.
856
00:41:03,135 --> 00:41:05,268
You wanted to see me?
857
00:41:05,270 --> 00:41:06,937
Where have you been?
858
00:41:06,939 --> 00:41:09,740
You haven't come in for weeks.
859
00:41:14,580 --> 00:41:18,615
It looks like Axe has brought you close.
860
00:41:18,617 --> 00:41:20,584
In the past, you've talked about feeling
861
00:41:20,586 --> 00:41:22,785
almost intimidated by him
in the work setting,
862
00:41:22,787 --> 00:41:24,987
but you've got a lot of
back and forth going now.
863
00:41:24,989 --> 00:41:26,523
He's a great resource.
864
00:41:26,525 --> 00:41:29,826
I decided I shouldn't shy
away from that anymore.
865
00:41:36,134 --> 00:41:40,870
You used to be one of the
most open people here,
866
00:41:40,872 --> 00:41:43,305
but you've withdrawn from me.
867
00:41:48,213 --> 00:41:51,714
Even now, I sense you withholding.
868
00:41:51,716 --> 00:41:54,916
Maybe I'm just tired.
869
00:41:54,918 --> 00:41:56,619
Maybe I'm... I'm just doing well
870
00:41:56,621 --> 00:42:00,422
and I don't wanna jinx it by...
talking about it.
871
00:42:13,470 --> 00:42:15,703
I couldn't stop thinking
about your problem.
872
00:42:15,705 --> 00:42:17,372
- Uh-huh.
- Now I know you're the doc,
873
00:42:17,374 --> 00:42:18,874
but let me prescribe you something.
874
00:42:18,876 --> 00:42:21,576
A boulevardier for her, please,
and another one for me.
875
00:42:21,578 --> 00:42:25,480
It's like a Negroni, but with
rye instead of gin. Try it.
876
00:42:25,482 --> 00:42:28,416
How the fuck did you
know I liked Negronis?
877
00:42:28,418 --> 00:42:29,717
Billie told me.
878
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,152
Well, I asked her.
879
00:42:31,154 --> 00:42:33,421
Is that something a
headhunter needs to know
880
00:42:33,423 --> 00:42:34,756
about a client these days?
881
00:42:34,758 --> 00:42:37,091
Well, you're more interesting
than my other clients.
882
00:42:37,093 --> 00:42:40,327
Cut the shit. I don't
need to be flattered.
883
00:42:40,329 --> 00:42:41,628
That's an occupational hazard,
884
00:42:41,630 --> 00:42:43,330
and in your case, it's not flattery.
885
00:42:43,332 --> 00:42:45,833
So... I came across something today...
886
00:42:45,835 --> 00:42:48,969
a job that I think might
be your Shangri-La.
887
00:42:48,971 --> 00:42:51,105
And they don't use outside headhunters,
888
00:42:51,107 --> 00:42:54,041
and I'm not gonna charge you
directly if you get the gig.
889
00:42:56,712 --> 00:43:00,380
Do you wanna talk about why
you're undervaluing yourself?
890
00:43:00,382 --> 00:43:03,183
No.
891
00:43:05,921 --> 00:43:07,053
Tell me about the job.
892
00:43:07,055 --> 00:43:08,855
It is a blue-chip consulting firm.
893
00:43:08,857 --> 00:43:10,890
They do turnarounds from the inside out.
894
00:43:10,892 --> 00:43:14,093
And the clients... we're talking
innovators, thought leaders,
895
00:43:14,095 --> 00:43:15,328
Fortune 500 folks...
896
00:43:15,330 --> 00:43:17,897
crazy geniuses that need to
be met on their own terms.
897
00:43:17,899 --> 00:43:19,265
You want a challenge,
898
00:43:19,267 --> 00:43:21,935
this job's gonna require that
you seriously up your game.
899
00:43:21,937 --> 00:43:24,070
- Huh.
- Mm-hmm.
900
00:43:26,308 --> 00:43:27,673
You can play cool if you want,
901
00:43:27,675 --> 00:43:29,475
but this façade's not fooling me.
902
00:43:29,477 --> 00:43:30,710
You're excited as hell.
903
00:43:32,146 --> 00:43:33,713
I'm intrigued.
904
00:43:33,715 --> 00:43:35,147
I do have some questions.
905
00:43:35,149 --> 00:43:37,983
About the comp? Platinum.
State-of-the-art package,
906
00:43:37,985 --> 00:43:40,152
comparable to what you're making now.
907
00:43:40,154 --> 00:43:42,254
I previewed who you were
without naming you,
908
00:43:42,256 --> 00:43:45,924
and I know it's yours
if you're interested.
909
00:43:47,427 --> 00:43:50,162
It's overwhelming, right?
Getting exactly what you want?
910
00:43:51,631 --> 00:43:54,766
That's how I roll.
911
00:43:54,768 --> 00:43:57,802
I would insist on paying
you a commission.
912
00:43:57,804 --> 00:44:00,105
I want to do a nice thing. Let me.
913
00:44:00,107 --> 00:44:01,940
I have to do something.
914
00:44:01,942 --> 00:44:04,342
You can. Drink up.
915
00:44:11,184 --> 00:44:13,852
This is today's downloads.
916
00:44:13,854 --> 00:44:15,820
Few conversations.
917
00:44:15,822 --> 00:44:19,156
Not what you're looking for... yet.
918
00:44:22,661 --> 00:44:25,029
That's what I want to talk about.
You know...
919
00:44:27,233 --> 00:44:29,433
There's a move. Guys try it so often,
920
00:44:29,435 --> 00:44:30,801
we call it the Bojangle.
921
00:44:30,803 --> 00:44:33,437
When someone who's been
caught, like yourself,
922
00:44:33,439 --> 00:44:37,107
agrees to cooperate, then thinks
they can string us along,
923
00:44:37,109 --> 00:44:40,811
giving us nothing until... what?
924
00:44:40,813 --> 00:44:43,781
Maybe you think we'll lose
interest or somethin'?
925
00:44:45,551 --> 00:44:48,184
Well, that's not gonna happen ever,
926
00:44:48,186 --> 00:44:51,087
so don't you try to fucking Bojangle me.
927
00:44:51,089 --> 00:44:55,491
"The price of any betrayal
always comes due in flesh."
928
00:44:55,493 --> 00:44:58,328
What's that? Shakespeare?
929
00:44:58,330 --> 00:45:01,564
Stephen King. Gunslinger.
930
00:45:01,566 --> 00:45:03,233
But no less true.
931
00:45:03,235 --> 00:45:08,504
You're right in recognizing that I...
am reluctant.
932
00:45:08,506 --> 00:45:12,742
It makes me sick to sell out the man
933
00:45:12,744 --> 00:45:16,345
who g-gave me everything...
934
00:45:20,117 --> 00:45:23,252
...so I can be with my family.
935
00:45:23,254 --> 00:45:26,188
So if that's not good enough,
936
00:45:26,190 --> 00:45:29,691
you can go fuck yourself!
937
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,268
So you tell me,
938
00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:42,370
you want me to keep
doing what I'm doing?
939
00:45:42,372 --> 00:45:45,440
Yeah. Keep it up. We'll be in touch.
940
00:46:01,358 --> 00:46:04,459
Jeez.
941
00:46:04,461 --> 00:46:06,794
Are you fucking kidding me?!
942
00:46:06,796 --> 00:46:09,830
Credible source. Well-developed.
943
00:46:09,832 --> 00:46:13,534
I cannot believe how reckless this is.
944
00:46:13,536 --> 00:46:15,903
Tomorrow, Bryan.
945
00:46:15,905 --> 00:46:18,238
I will hear your complaints tomorrow.
946
00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:21,475
And I will give those complaints
947
00:46:21,477 --> 00:46:24,979
a good, long, loud hearing.
948
00:46:24,981 --> 00:46:29,650
You can bray, and I will listen.
949
00:46:29,652 --> 00:46:33,786
Tomorrow. Tomorrow.
950
00:46:37,959 --> 00:46:39,759
But for now...
951
00:46:43,065 --> 00:46:45,098
Excellent work.
952
00:46:58,246 --> 00:46:59,979
- Hey.
- Hey.
953
00:46:59,981 --> 00:47:01,313
Did you, uh, pay the sitter?
954
00:47:01,315 --> 00:47:03,115
Yeah. She left a while ago.
955
00:47:04,718 --> 00:47:07,186
What'd you do tonight?
956
00:47:07,188 --> 00:47:08,754
Meeting with the, uh,
957
00:47:08,756 --> 00:47:12,391
Federal Judiciary committee
at the Bar Association.
958
00:47:12,393 --> 00:47:14,326
You?
959
00:47:14,328 --> 00:47:16,995
Uh, I had a drink with Billie
960
00:47:16,997 --> 00:47:18,964
and some of the girls from med school.
961
00:47:20,101 --> 00:47:21,800
Guess we know who had more fun tonight.
962
00:47:21,802 --> 00:47:24,536
Ha. Yeah.
963
00:47:33,447 --> 00:47:36,114
What are those?
964
00:47:36,116 --> 00:47:37,182
Sleeping bags.
965
00:47:37,184 --> 00:47:39,617
Go get sweatshirts and toothbrushes.
966
00:47:39,619 --> 00:47:41,319
Why?
967
00:47:41,321 --> 00:47:42,587
'Cause you're going on a campout
968
00:47:42,589 --> 00:47:44,222
with the Westport Sound Rangers.
969
00:47:44,224 --> 00:47:46,357
- What?
- Mm-hmm.
970
00:47:46,359 --> 00:47:48,059
It's time to learn some outdoor skills.
971
00:47:48,061 --> 00:47:51,862
Camping, fire building, map
reading, ropes course.
972
00:47:51,864 --> 00:47:54,531
Some life skills.
973
00:47:54,533 --> 00:47:55,733
Dad.
974
00:47:55,735 --> 00:47:58,535
It's your mother's decision,
and I'm behind her.
975
00:48:02,041 --> 00:48:04,241
Get up.
976
00:48:04,243 --> 00:48:05,476
I canceled your speech
at the conference.
977
00:48:05,478 --> 00:48:06,744
Good. Next?
978
00:48:06,746 --> 00:48:09,379
Raul Gomez says he needs to
know if he can tell his board
979
00:48:09,381 --> 00:48:11,582
you're clear of charges.
980
00:48:13,252 --> 00:48:15,152
Call back later.
981
00:48:15,154 --> 00:48:16,820
You were right.
982
00:48:16,822 --> 00:48:18,888
It was the girlfriend.
983
00:48:18,890 --> 00:48:21,091
The video makes the whole thing clear.
984
00:48:21,093 --> 00:48:22,226
He was drinking.
985
00:48:22,228 --> 00:48:24,728
He basically admits to
driving your kids drunk.
986
00:48:24,730 --> 00:48:26,096
He insults them and you.
987
00:48:26,098 --> 00:48:28,999
We've got the full version now.
No one else does.
988
00:48:29,001 --> 00:48:30,166
What'd it cost?
989
00:48:30,168 --> 00:48:32,502
Well within my budget
for this type of thing.
990
00:48:32,504 --> 00:48:33,837
Well done.
991
00:48:33,839 --> 00:48:36,339
Now we just need to get it
into Mike Dimonda's hands.
992
00:48:36,341 --> 00:48:38,374
Already being uploaded by my office.
993
00:48:38,376 --> 00:48:39,843
- Ooh!
- All right.
994
00:48:39,845 --> 00:48:41,911
All right, let's get those tents up!
995
00:48:41,913 --> 00:48:46,048
Then we'll assign fire detail,
cook up some franks and beans.
996
00:48:50,421 --> 00:48:51,954
Hey!
997
00:48:54,992 --> 00:48:56,692
It's a screen-free,
electronics-free time
998
00:48:56,694 --> 00:48:57,793
out here, buddies.
999
00:48:57,795 --> 00:49:00,629
- Sorry.
- Hand it over.
1000
00:49:05,835 --> 00:49:07,735
You have one?
1001
00:49:09,105 --> 00:49:11,739
All right, then. Hop to!
1002
00:49:13,843 --> 00:49:15,977
I got your precious,
fucking babies home.
1003
00:49:15,979 --> 00:49:18,112
What? I will kill you, you motherfucker.
1004
00:49:22,185 --> 00:49:25,486
400,000 hits in less than two hours.
1005
00:49:25,488 --> 00:49:28,989
That's beyond viral.
That's goddamned virulent.
1006
00:49:28,991 --> 00:49:32,759
Well, it's official. This no
longer exists in the system.
1007
00:49:32,761 --> 00:49:36,163
The full video contained what
the police consider to be
1008
00:49:36,165 --> 00:49:39,432
an admission of DUI, so your
reaction was justifiable.
1009
00:49:39,434 --> 00:49:41,601
Just stay off the radar.
1010
00:49:43,438 --> 00:49:45,405
Thank you.
1011
00:49:45,407 --> 00:49:46,773
There you go.
1012
00:49:46,775 --> 00:49:49,475
If you need anything
else, you got my number.
1013
00:49:50,946 --> 00:49:53,880
Best one yet... "Mothers
Against Drunk Driving,
1014
00:49:53,882 --> 00:49:58,384
we salute #BobbyAxelrod for
doing what needed to be done.
1015
00:49:58,386 --> 00:50:00,953
#don'tdrinkanddrive."
1016
00:50:00,955 --> 00:50:02,755
You're an instant goddamn hero.
1017
00:50:02,757 --> 00:50:04,424
Your phone is blowing up.
1018
00:50:04,426 --> 00:50:06,092
Lawrence Boyd from Spartan-Ives...
1019
00:50:06,094 --> 00:50:08,094
"Bobby, share my chopper
out to the Hamptons
1020
00:50:08,096 --> 00:50:09,128
for Clean Water gala."
1021
00:50:09,130 --> 00:50:10,563
- Ooh.
- Ooh!
1022
00:50:10,565 --> 00:50:14,266
And Raul Gomez... "The police
remain behind Axe Cap."
1023
00:50:14,268 --> 00:50:15,835
There we go!
1024
00:50:15,837 --> 00:50:19,105
- Mm.
- Get up!
1025
00:50:19,107 --> 00:50:21,006
That's gonna fucking cost you.
1026
00:50:21,008 --> 00:50:22,441
Worth it.
1027
00:50:22,443 --> 00:50:24,676
Axelrod wins!
1028
00:50:24,678 --> 00:50:26,478
Of course.
1029
00:50:32,486 --> 00:50:35,387
Well, I said that I would hear you out,
1030
00:50:35,389 --> 00:50:36,788
and I will.
1031
00:50:38,459 --> 00:50:41,893
Uh, I'm not doing it this way.
1032
00:50:41,895 --> 00:50:43,795
Appoint someone else lead counsel.
1033
00:50:43,797 --> 00:50:45,964
I got plenty of other
cases to deal with.
1034
00:50:47,467 --> 00:50:50,334
Now is this because you think my advice
1035
00:50:50,336 --> 00:50:53,037
gives you less of a shot at winning?
1036
00:50:53,039 --> 00:50:55,573
No. I need to protect my integrity.
1037
00:50:55,575 --> 00:50:58,542
I need to run the case
if I'm running it.
1038
00:51:00,147 --> 00:51:02,480
Ego.
1039
00:51:02,482 --> 00:51:05,683
Bryan Connerty saying, I did it.
1040
00:51:05,685 --> 00:51:07,918
I took down Bobby Axelrod.
1041
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:12,590
Not ego. And not alone.
1042
00:51:12,592 --> 00:51:13,991
We have more resources
1043
00:51:13,993 --> 00:51:16,427
than any governmental
prosecutorial division
1044
00:51:16,429 --> 00:51:17,628
in the world.
1045
00:51:17,630 --> 00:51:20,330
I plan on using them as I see fit.
1046
00:51:20,332 --> 00:51:24,367
Sometimes even I lose perspective.
1047
00:51:24,369 --> 00:51:27,504
This whole winning and losing
thing can do that to you.
1048
00:51:27,506 --> 00:51:31,675
I say "I" instead of "we,"
instead of "the people."
1049
00:51:33,879 --> 00:51:36,379
And I forget that history
won't give a shit
1050
00:51:36,381 --> 00:51:38,415
if Chuck Rhoades or Bryan Connerty
1051
00:51:38,417 --> 00:51:40,283
won or lost some dipshit case,
1052
00:51:40,285 --> 00:51:41,384
And in a hundred years,
1053
00:51:41,386 --> 00:51:43,085
that's what they'll all look like,
1054
00:51:43,087 --> 00:51:44,688
no matter how big.
1055
00:51:47,058 --> 00:51:49,959
But taken together as an aggregate,
1056
00:51:49,961 --> 00:51:52,628
they matter.
1057
00:51:55,333 --> 00:51:57,033
Instead of thinking about
how it's gonna feel
1058
00:51:57,035 --> 00:52:00,369
hearing a guilty verdict
only you brought in,
1059
00:52:00,371 --> 00:52:03,706
picture the retirees,
the hourly workers.
1060
00:52:03,708 --> 00:52:07,576
The innocent timecard-punching
factory employees
1061
00:52:07,578 --> 00:52:12,180
humping it out of bed every
day for their families.
1062
00:52:16,019 --> 00:52:20,789
Those people put their faith
in the American promise...
1063
00:52:20,791 --> 00:52:25,060
work hard, get paid what you deserve.
1064
00:52:25,062 --> 00:52:27,829
Invest your nest egg, grow it.
1065
00:52:27,831 --> 00:52:31,733
Retire with enough to live on.
1066
00:52:31,735 --> 00:52:34,269
That is the whole reason...
1067
00:52:34,271 --> 00:52:40,575
We're sold the idea that the
playing field is level.
1068
00:52:40,577 --> 00:52:42,076
But we both know the playing field
1069
00:52:42,078 --> 00:52:45,380
is tilted like a craps table
in Tombstone, Arizona.
1070
00:52:46,949 --> 00:52:50,284
And Bobby Axelrod is the one
who is sewing the legs.
1071
00:52:52,589 --> 00:52:56,023
Every dollar that he
takes through fraud,
1072
00:52:56,025 --> 00:52:58,092
insider information,
market manipulation,
1073
00:52:58,094 --> 00:53:00,361
is a dollar taken away
from one of those folks
1074
00:53:00,363 --> 00:53:01,428
who earned it.
1075
00:53:01,430 --> 00:53:04,631
And Axe will do everything
1076
00:53:04,633 --> 00:53:06,333
to keep it all going.
1077
00:53:06,335 --> 00:53:10,437
And that's why you need
me, because I am willing
1078
00:53:10,439 --> 00:53:14,741
to stare into the abyss
beyond conventional morality
1079
00:53:14,743 --> 00:53:17,043
and do what needs to be done
1080
00:53:17,045 --> 00:53:19,813
to even that fucking table back up.
1081
00:53:32,060 --> 00:53:34,060
- Sit in it.
- Come on.
1082
00:53:34,062 --> 00:53:36,396
Come on.
1083
00:53:36,398 --> 00:53:39,999
I want you to. Sit in it.
1084
00:53:56,617 --> 00:53:59,151
Someday you're gonna be sitting
in that chair for real.
1085
00:53:59,153 --> 00:54:01,887
And you're gonna remember this moment
1086
00:54:01,889 --> 00:54:03,822
and you're gonna understand it in a way
1087
00:54:03,824 --> 00:54:06,291
that you couldn't possibly now.
1088
00:54:07,494 --> 00:54:09,928
But know this...
1089
00:54:09,930 --> 00:54:13,698
this is your case, Bryan.
1090
00:54:13,700 --> 00:54:15,667
I'm not letting you walk away from it.
1091
00:54:17,171 --> 00:54:19,071
So what you have to ask yourself,
1092
00:54:19,073 --> 00:54:22,974
the only thing you have
to ask yourself is,
1093
00:54:22,976 --> 00:54:26,110
can you do a better job
standing up for those folks
1094
00:54:26,112 --> 00:54:29,481
with me in your corner...
1095
00:54:29,483 --> 00:54:31,349
or without me?
1096
00:54:37,756 --> 00:54:41,758
Now you stay there, right there.
1097
00:54:43,963 --> 00:54:46,030
Think about it.
1098
00:55:30,341 --> 00:55:32,575
I think you're gonna be happy.
1099
00:55:54,465 --> 00:55:56,665
Hey!
1100
00:55:56,667 --> 00:55:58,267
Go!
1101
00:55:58,269 --> 00:56:01,502
- He's coming!
- Hey, what the...
1102
00:56:01,504 --> 00:56:03,605
- Get in, get in.
- He's coming. He's coming.
1103
00:56:03,607 --> 00:56:04,739
Let's go!
1104
00:56:04,741 --> 00:56:06,207
- Buckle up.
- Yes!
1105
00:56:06,209 --> 00:56:07,976
What the hell?!
1106
00:56:16,352 --> 00:56:18,519
Smart move, Gordie,
holding on to your phone.
1107
00:56:19,722 --> 00:56:21,922
So you guys hungry?
What did they feed you?
1108
00:56:21,924 --> 00:56:24,058
- Franks and beans.
- It was shit.
1109
00:56:24,060 --> 00:56:25,293
- We're starving.
- See?
1110
00:56:25,295 --> 00:56:27,495
Now you've learned to
appreciate what you have.
1111
00:56:27,497 --> 00:56:28,996
- And watch your mouth.
- Okay.
1112
00:56:28,998 --> 00:56:30,931
So... tough night.
1113
00:56:32,767 --> 00:56:34,601
Wanna get some real food?
1114
00:56:34,603 --> 00:56:36,570
I know a diner, great milkshakes.
1115
00:56:36,572 --> 00:56:37,904
Yes!
1116
00:56:43,564 --> 00:56:46,525
