﻿1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:02,426
I'm not letting you Neanderthals
in to rape my company.

2
00:00:02,427 --> 00:00:05,110
This is a deal so fucking
good, you have to take it,

3
00:00:05,111 --> 00:00:06,431
or we'll see you in court.

4
00:00:07,414 --> 00:00:11,347
We need to discuss
this bear hug: stick or settle?

5
00:00:11,348 --> 00:00:12,545
I think you should fight.

6
00:00:12,546 --> 00:00:15,339
- You're the one who built it all.
- Oh, that was adorable.

7
00:00:15,340 --> 00:00:17,874
You're always looking
out for Pops, aren't you?

8
00:00:18,712 --> 00:00:21,391
I'd like to formally ask you to come in

9
00:00:21,392 --> 00:00:24,118
to be the next chief
executive of this company.

10
00:00:24,119 --> 00:00:26,176
You're the one.

11
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,600
For now we need to keep this between us,

12
00:00:28,601 --> 00:00:31,179
- everything about Tom, Gil.
- Of course.

13
00:00:31,180 --> 00:00:32,904
What did he say? Where am I going?

14
00:00:32,905 --> 00:00:34,730
What have you fucking
landed me? Is it huge?

15
00:00:34,731 --> 00:00:37,023
Chair of global broadcast news.

16
00:00:37,024 --> 00:00:38,059
ATN, baby.

17
00:00:38,060 --> 00:00:41,107
Kendall and Roman will act as
co-chief operating officers.

18
00:00:41,108 --> 00:00:42,705
Did you just say co-chief?

19
00:00:42,706 --> 00:00:44,004
No, he's coming back?

20
00:00:44,636 --> 00:00:46,630
Look what the cat dragged in.

21
00:00:46,631 --> 00:00:49,224
He wanted me to tell you
you're going to bleed cash,

22
00:00:49,225 --> 00:00:50,357
he's going to bleed cash,

23
00:00:50,358 --> 00:00:53,100
and maybe you'll kill him,
but if you don't, he aims to kill you.

24
00:00:53,101 --> 00:00:55,145
We're going to be the number one

25
00:00:55,146 --> 00:00:57,715
media conglomerate in the world.

26
00:00:57,716 --> 00:00:58,950
Hear, hear.

27
00:01:11,344 --> 00:01:13,711
Can we get in? What's going on?

28
00:01:14,183 --> 00:01:15,607
Let's go.

29
00:01:15,608 --> 00:01:18,032
Let's see if he's still awake.

30
00:01:18,033 --> 00:01:19,865
Is that him?

31
00:01:22,048 --> 00:01:23,683
Okay. Can we yell,

32
00:01:23,684 --> 00:01:25,283
"Wake up, Snow Joe!"

33
00:01:28,689 --> 00:01:30,789
Wake up, Snow Joe!

34
00:01:32,892 --> 00:01:34,059
There he is.

35
00:01:34,060 --> 00:01:36,762
What's poppin', cum-dump?

36
00:01:36,763 --> 00:01:39,565
Yeah, just enjoying my
daughter's birthday, so...

37
00:01:39,566 --> 00:01:41,066
Daddy, uh, we've tried everything.

38
00:01:41,067 --> 00:01:43,369
Can they make the wagon train go faster?

39
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:44,403
Let's... Let's ask, yeah?

40
00:01:44,404 --> 00:01:46,539
Can the wagon train go any faster?

41
00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:48,407
Uh, up to a point.

42
00:01:48,408 --> 00:01:51,343
Yeah, great. Let's take it
up to that point. Thanks.

43
00:01:51,344 --> 00:01:52,543
Thanks, Daddy.

44
00:01:54,547 --> 00:01:55,848
The signage is for shit.

45
00:01:55,849 --> 00:01:58,150
You know, still, some
other sucker's problem now.

46
00:01:58,151 --> 00:02:00,518
Three months ago, I was at a
meeting about how to stop kids

47
00:02:00,519 --> 00:02:03,322
giving each other handy jobs
on the runaway ghost train.

48
00:02:03,323 --> 00:02:04,957
And now, I'm about to start managing

49
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:07,592
a billion-dollar news
budget, so... It's all good.

50
00:02:07,593 --> 00:02:09,027
I gave my first hand
job on the ghost train.

51
00:02:09,028 --> 00:02:11,463
I have a shitty
roommate right now, so I'm...

52
00:02:11,464 --> 00:02:12,664
trying to move on from that.

53
00:02:12,665 --> 00:02:14,833
My friend has an open
room in her apartment.

54
00:02:14,834 --> 00:02:16,335
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, I mean,

55
00:02:16,336 --> 00:02:18,770
she has an issue with spores from mold,

56
00:02:18,771 --> 00:02:21,940
but I don't know. I don't know
how your lungs are with spores.

57
00:02:21,941 --> 00:02:23,641
You know, I did see one place,

58
00:02:23,642 --> 00:02:25,410
uh, 600 square feet.

59
00:02:25,411 --> 00:02:26,745
But it was out in Staten Island.

60
00:02:26,746 --> 00:02:27,879
- What?
- I dunno if...

61
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,067
Cousin Greg is moving to Staten Island?

62
00:02:30,068 --> 00:02:31,126
No, no. I dunno.

63
00:02:31,127 --> 00:02:32,444
Oh my God, did you hear this?

64
00:02:32,445 --> 00:02:33,700
I'm just looking at a place out there.

65
00:02:33,701 --> 00:02:35,124
Greg is getting the ferry to work?

66
00:02:35,125 --> 00:02:36,621
Check out Bryan Ferry.

67
00:02:36,622 --> 00:02:37,856
Dude, why stop at the ferry?

68
00:02:37,857 --> 00:02:39,758
Just come in from
Cleveland on the Greyhound.

69
00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:42,159
Have you considered a hotel?

70
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,362
Oh, wh... As, like, nightly, or... ?

71
00:02:44,363 --> 00:02:47,365
Logan's requested your
presence in meeting room 4.

72
00:02:47,366 --> 00:02:49,300
- Which?
- Both of you.

73
00:02:49,301 --> 00:02:51,536
Oh. That'll be fun.

74
00:02:51,537 --> 00:02:52,870
Beavis and Crackhead.

75
00:02:56,174 --> 00:03:00,310
Um, Logan also asked
for you to join, too.

76
00:03:00,311 --> 00:03:01,978
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

77
00:03:01,979 --> 00:03:03,380
Oh. Okay.

78
00:03:03,381 --> 00:03:04,882
- You wanna take this?
- No.

79
00:03:04,883 --> 00:03:08,452
Off they all go again,
marching off to Daddy.

80
00:03:08,453 --> 00:03:11,287
Like Russians joining
the Brusilov Offensive.

81
00:03:13,751 --> 00:03:14,816
World War I.

82
00:03:16,041 --> 00:03:17,641
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Right.

83
00:03:19,898 --> 00:03:23,033
My focus is bringing Waystar Royco

84
00:03:23,034 --> 00:03:25,201
to its full earning potential.

85
00:03:25,202 --> 00:03:28,104
- So, uh, Waystar refused to play ball?
- Mm-hmm.

86
00:03:28,105 --> 00:03:29,406
I'm assuming they waved

87
00:03:29,407 --> 00:03:30,840
a poison pill in your face

88
00:03:30,841 --> 00:03:33,776
and now you're launching a proxy battle

89
00:03:33,777 --> 00:03:35,278
to replace the board.

90
00:03:35,279 --> 00:03:37,780
This guy, fuckin' dildo
dipped in beard trimmings.

91
00:03:37,781 --> 00:03:39,349
He's fuckin' us on TV.

92
00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:41,952
And of course Pierce put him on.

93
00:03:41,953 --> 00:03:43,753
Yes, we're launching into a proxy battle

94
00:03:43,754 --> 00:03:46,222
Self-righteous fuckin'
butter-wouldn't-melt,

95
00:03:46,223 --> 00:03:48,858
disingenuous Pulitzer pricks.

96
00:03:48,859 --> 00:03:50,994
Is Logan Roy fit

97
00:03:50,995 --> 00:03:53,821
to run a 21st-century
media organization?

98
00:03:53,822 --> 00:03:56,114
You recognize any of this, son?

99
00:03:56,115 --> 00:03:57,806
It's from the playbook, Dad.

100
00:03:57,807 --> 00:04:00,033
Oh, yes, of course, the playbook.

101
00:04:00,034 --> 00:04:01,291
Sure.

102
00:04:01,292 --> 00:04:02,816
Let me just make it very clear.

103
00:04:02,817 --> 00:04:05,608
Kendall Roy is no longer relevant.

104
00:04:05,609 --> 00:04:07,276
Now, with regards to Sandy Furness...

105
00:04:07,277 --> 00:04:08,310
So...

106
00:04:08,311 --> 00:04:10,504
We keep our counsel. Dismissive.

107
00:04:10,505 --> 00:04:12,296
Just lay it all out
in our proxy statement.

108
00:04:12,297 --> 00:04:14,722
A hurried public response
makes us look rattled.

109
00:04:14,723 --> 00:04:17,753
So let Stewy sway all
the shareholders first

110
00:04:17,754 --> 00:04:19,956
while Dad sits there
with his thumb up his ass?

111
00:04:19,957 --> 00:04:21,056
That's a great plan.

112
00:04:21,057 --> 00:04:23,826
- Hey, Shiv.
- Respectfully, we just take a beat.

113
00:04:23,827 --> 00:04:25,661
Let me, uh, put a solid pack together.

114
00:04:25,662 --> 00:04:27,229
We fire back when we have the ammo.

115
00:04:27,230 --> 00:04:29,465
By which point all the shooting's over.

116
00:04:29,466 --> 00:04:32,101
No, get out now with a salty re-frame.

117
00:04:32,102 --> 00:04:34,670
This is your standard-issue
basic-bitch corporate raider

118
00:04:34,671 --> 00:04:37,639
versus a fuckin'
legendary force of nature,

119
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:38,940
Hurricane Logan.

120
00:04:38,941 --> 00:04:41,010
He had a fastball once, but...

121
00:04:41,011 --> 00:04:42,711
Now. Today.

122
00:04:42,712 --> 00:04:45,780
Karolina runs the words past Shiv.

123
00:04:45,781 --> 00:04:46,840
Yeah, Vaulter.

124
00:04:46,841 --> 00:04:48,798
- Yeah. Okay.
- Vaulter. He paid too big...

125
00:04:48,799 --> 00:04:50,252
- Right.
- Huge disappoi...

126
00:04:50,253 --> 00:04:51,544
It's a huge disappointment.

127
00:04:51,545 --> 00:04:53,322
Do you think they suckered us?

128
00:04:53,323 --> 00:04:54,723
- Who, Vaulter?
- Uh-huh.

129
00:04:54,724 --> 00:04:56,925
No, we went deep on that. We... We...

130
00:04:56,926 --> 00:04:58,093
kicked the tires good.

131
00:04:58,094 --> 00:04:59,694
I think we got chiseled.

132
00:04:59,695 --> 00:05:01,830
Revenue projections down and down.

133
00:05:01,831 --> 00:05:02,964
I think we got screwed.

134
00:05:02,965 --> 00:05:06,035
Yeah, me too. Massive
fuck-up, Ken. Huge.

135
00:05:06,036 --> 00:05:07,402
Unforgivable.

136
00:05:07,403 --> 00:05:10,004
Right, I want the response out today.

137
00:05:10,005 --> 00:05:11,906
I need Vaulter fixed.

138
00:05:11,907 --> 00:05:12,998
All right?

139
00:05:12,999 --> 00:05:15,909
So I have something to say in
my fucking investor meetings.

140
00:05:16,711 --> 00:05:18,246
- Go.
- Okay. Me?

141
00:05:18,247 --> 00:05:20,415
Both of you. One who fixes it...

142
00:05:20,416 --> 00:05:21,582
gets a cookie.

143
00:05:21,583 --> 00:05:22,808
You got it. Sure thing, Dad.

144
00:05:22,809 --> 00:05:26,102
I... I just wanted to
say thank you for, um...

145
00:05:26,103 --> 00:05:27,961
closing down the park for us.

146
00:05:27,962 --> 00:05:29,419
Sophie...

147
00:05:29,420 --> 00:05:31,579
she's having a great birthday.
She got to meet Snow Joe and...

148
00:05:31,580 --> 00:05:32,645
So thank you.

149
00:05:34,396 --> 00:05:36,197
Look at you, broken robot.

150
00:05:36,198 --> 00:05:37,897
Can't even hug your own kids.

151
00:05:40,502 --> 00:05:42,268
Yeah, I saw that, you freak.

152
00:05:44,105 --> 00:05:45,204
Pinkie.

153
00:05:45,639 --> 00:05:46,706
Happy?

154
00:05:46,707 --> 00:05:48,875
Yeah. Smart.

155
00:05:48,876 --> 00:05:50,909
Uh, let me know if you need anything.

it's incredibly gauche,

163
00:07:41,853 --> 00:07:45,556
but can we not just have a
big, beautiful portrait of us

164
00:07:45,557 --> 00:07:46,623
up there?

165
00:07:46,624 --> 00:07:47,624
- Shiv.
- Mm?

166
00:07:47,625 --> 00:07:49,125
- Too Saddam?
- Mm.

167
00:07:49,126 --> 00:07:51,227
- Too Assady?
- Mm.

168
00:07:51,228 --> 00:07:52,294
Okay.

169
00:07:58,736 --> 00:08:01,604
- You good?
- Am I good? I am great!

170
00:08:01,605 --> 00:08:05,474
I am great. I'm good.
I slept well and, uh...

171
00:08:05,475 --> 00:08:08,311
Yeah, you know your thing
about us? Uh...

172
00:08:08,312 --> 00:08:10,680
I think I've contextualized it...

173
00:08:10,681 --> 00:08:12,949
- It's not really a thing.
- No, no, no, sure.

174
00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:15,618
I just feel like, "Okay, you know,

175
00:08:15,619 --> 00:08:18,021
if I'm the king and you're the queen,

176
00:08:18,022 --> 00:08:20,556
maybe it's fine to...

177
00:08:20,557 --> 00:08:21,858
fuck the odd peasant."

178
00:08:21,859 --> 00:08:23,326
- Right. Yeah.
- Because... Because...

179
00:08:23,327 --> 00:08:26,329
Big picture: our plan is right on track.

180
00:08:26,330 --> 00:08:27,963
- You know?
- Uh-huh.

181
00:08:27,964 --> 00:08:30,533
And you've... you've
seen Gil's numbers, right?

182
00:08:30,534 --> 00:08:33,469
And... And as of today,
I'm right in at ATN.

183
00:08:33,470 --> 00:08:34,869
You know, belly of the beast.

184
00:08:35,606 --> 00:08:36,606
So...

185
00:08:39,175 --> 00:08:40,543
- Hey.
- Yeah?

186
00:08:40,544 --> 00:08:42,678
You wanna bang? Right now?

187
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,079
Cheeky little breakfast bang.

188
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,615
- Oh... I'm...
- Wanna?

189
00:08:45,616 --> 00:08:48,684
I'm just such in a
different mental place...

190
00:08:48,685 --> 00:08:50,219
- Okay.
- ... than you right now.

191
00:08:50,220 --> 00:08:51,654
No, sure.

192
00:08:51,655 --> 00:08:54,156
I just feel so incredibly potent.

193
00:08:54,157 --> 00:08:55,691
- Mm.
- You know?

194
00:08:55,692 --> 00:08:57,226
I think it's the new place.

195
00:08:57,227 --> 00:08:58,660
- Yeah.
- You know?

196
00:08:58,661 --> 00:09:01,163
- I feel God-like and horny.
- Oof!

197
00:09:01,164 --> 00:09:03,165
Everybody looks, like,
two feet tall to me.

198
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,701
Well, you know what? Maybe...

199
00:09:06,702 --> 00:09:08,637
Maybe we should split
from the thing early

200
00:09:08,638 --> 00:09:11,305
tonight and, you know, we can...

201
00:09:12,475 --> 00:09:14,509
- talk, and...
- Mm-hmm.

202
00:09:14,510 --> 00:09:15,944
- ... everything.
- Okay!

203
00:09:15,945 --> 00:09:18,147
Okay! My fave. Strategy and a fuck.

204
00:09:19,682 --> 00:09:21,416
- Okay, bye.
- Have a good one.

205
00:09:21,417 --> 00:09:22,450
Bye, honey.

206
00:09:24,788 --> 00:09:29,091
So cool. You know they have
their own beehive upstairs?

207
00:09:29,092 --> 00:09:31,458
What is that? Is that, like,
the fucking business model?

208
00:09:31,459 --> 00:09:33,961
Conflict porn and hipster honey.

209
00:09:33,962 --> 00:09:34,995
Ugh.

210
00:09:35,397 --> 00:09:36,798
Oh, shh.

211
00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:39,033
The pretend journalists
are pretend working.

212
00:09:39,034 --> 00:09:40,802
All right, Rome, just cool it.

213
00:09:40,803 --> 00:09:42,937
Let's move nice and slow here. Yeah?

214
00:09:42,938 --> 00:09:45,173
- Mm-hmm.
- Just keep it small and general.

215
00:09:45,174 --> 00:09:46,398
We don't wanna spook him.

216
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:48,423
Yeah, okay. You
got it. You are in charge.

217
00:09:48,424 --> 00:09:50,349
I follow your lead, fucker.

218
00:09:50,350 --> 00:09:52,910
Larry Yee, King of New York!

219
00:09:52,911 --> 00:09:54,335
What the fuck?

220
00:09:54,336 --> 00:09:56,762
Thanks for making space, man.
I know it was last minute.

221
00:09:56,763 --> 00:09:59,789
Ah, dude. Anytime.

222
00:09:59,790 --> 00:10:00,880
Hey, Lawrence.

223
00:10:00,881 --> 00:10:03,457
I heard you were drying
out in a Schloss,

224
00:10:03,458 --> 00:10:05,591
doing shitty yoga with hausfrau?

225
00:10:05,592 --> 00:10:07,227
Right. right.

226
00:10:07,228 --> 00:10:08,419
Nope.

227
00:10:08,420 --> 00:10:11,631
He is back. He is back,
like a pedo on parole.

228
00:10:11,632 --> 00:10:13,666
Yeah, man, we're
just here for a catch-up.

229
00:10:13,667 --> 00:10:16,870
You know? Super casual, feet
on the table, whatever the fuck.

230
00:10:16,871 --> 00:10:18,404
Just, uh, just help you out.

231
00:10:18,405 --> 00:10:19,906
O... Obviously, I'm always pleased

232
00:10:19,907 --> 00:10:20,941
to get your insights,

233
00:10:20,942 --> 00:10:23,042
but, like, who am I talking to?

234
00:10:23,845 --> 00:10:25,011
Co...

235
00:10:25,012 --> 00:10:26,012
COOs.

236
00:10:26,013 --> 00:10:27,180
Who's in charge here?

237
00:10:27,181 --> 00:10:30,250
My brother and I have
a joint responsibility.

238
00:10:30,251 --> 00:10:31,576
You know, we're sharing duties,

239
00:10:31,577 --> 00:10:34,803
but we're on the same page
operationally. Right, Rome?

240
00:10:34,804 --> 00:10:37,062
I don't know what the
fuck he's talking about.

241
00:10:37,063 --> 00:10:38,291
There's just, uh,

242
00:10:38,292 --> 00:10:41,728
a lot of, uh, crackle
in the air right now.

243
00:10:41,729 --> 00:10:44,063
External pressures
with the proxy battle,

244
00:10:44,064 --> 00:10:45,197
- that whole...
- Yeah.

245
00:10:45,198 --> 00:10:47,867
So you're defusing the bomb you planted.

246
00:10:49,236 --> 00:10:53,138
Yes, precisely. See,
he gets it. He sees.

247
00:10:53,139 --> 00:10:56,242
We're just here for a
routine health check.

248
00:10:56,243 --> 00:10:57,343
That's all this is.

249
00:10:57,344 --> 00:10:58,502
Where's this coming from?

250
00:10:58,503 --> 00:11:00,261
- It's coming from us.
- It's coming from Dad.

251
00:11:00,262 --> 00:11:01,819
No. What, why are we
dancing around this?

252
00:11:01,820 --> 00:11:03,620
It's coming from Dad.
Dad's worried about you.

253
00:11:03,952 --> 00:11:05,110
Okay.

254
00:11:05,111 --> 00:11:06,668
I mean, come on, you know how he is.

255
00:11:06,669 --> 00:11:08,824
He doesn't get it. He still has
a plant out in the Philippines

256
00:11:08,825 --> 00:11:10,757
manufacturing Xerox machines.

257
00:11:10,758 --> 00:11:12,591
But he's fucking shrewd.

258
00:11:12,592 --> 00:11:14,793
And, right now...

259
00:11:14,794 --> 00:11:17,161
right now, his giant cyclops eye

260
00:11:17,162 --> 00:11:19,631
is looking in this direction,
and he's feeling like

261
00:11:19,632 --> 00:11:22,300
maybe he bought a
giant pile of bullshit.

262
00:11:22,301 --> 00:11:23,735
So now here I am

263
00:11:23,736 --> 00:11:26,371
to enquire in the
politest terms possible

264
00:11:26,372 --> 00:11:28,407
what the fuck is going on.

265
00:11:28,408 --> 00:11:30,275
Dad thinks maybe you fucked him.

266
00:11:30,276 --> 00:11:33,512
Our numbers were solid
when you bought us,

267
00:11:33,513 --> 00:11:34,746
and they're solid now.

268
00:11:34,747 --> 00:11:36,381
Dude, really, don't take it personally.

269
00:11:36,382 --> 00:11:37,729
Dad thinks everyone's fucking him.

270
00:11:37,730 --> 00:11:39,284
I know you're on the level.

271
00:11:39,285 --> 00:11:40,676
Help me make him see that.

272
00:11:40,677 --> 00:11:41,701
What do you need?

273
00:11:41,702 --> 00:11:44,395
I need metrics, I need KPIs,

274
00:11:44,396 --> 00:11:46,690
and, uh, I need an office.

275
00:11:46,691 --> 00:11:49,159
Me too, I need an office as well.

276
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,194
Separate from his. Nicer.

277
00:11:51,195 --> 00:11:54,031
It's on, me versus the Peach.

278
00:11:54,032 --> 00:11:55,299
Okay, I'm gonna s...

279
00:11:55,300 --> 00:11:57,301
I'm gonna swing the old meat mallet.

280
00:11:57,302 --> 00:11:59,670
I'm gonna sit on her
right out of the box.

281
00:11:59,671 --> 00:12:01,071
Okay, so I could be calling

282
00:12:01,072 --> 00:12:02,873
for a little bit of
the old punch-bagging,

283
00:12:02,874 --> 00:12:03,908
okay, buddy?

284
00:12:03,909 --> 00:12:06,410
- Uh-huh.
- Ready to play the bag?

285
00:12:06,411 --> 00:12:08,578
- Y... Yeah, yeah. Give it to me.
- Okay.

286
00:12:10,081 --> 00:12:11,081
What?

287
00:12:12,317 --> 00:12:13,483
What is it, Greg?

288
00:12:14,753 --> 00:12:17,421
Being in at ATN, you
know, it's kinda like

289
00:12:17,422 --> 00:12:19,590
the one thing I didn't wanna do.

290
00:12:19,591 --> 00:12:20,991
Oh, okay. So, what...

291
00:12:20,992 --> 00:12:22,559
Should I have left you at Parks to sink?

292
00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:23,626
I mean, it's...

293
00:12:23,627 --> 00:12:25,462
it's ATN, man. It's the fuckin' news.

294
00:12:25,463 --> 00:12:27,297
- I know.
- It's Logan's G-spot.

295
00:12:27,298 --> 00:12:28,966
I can finger-bang him all night long.

296
00:12:28,967 --> 00:12:31,301
I'm a direct direct report. What?

297
00:12:31,302 --> 00:12:32,601
Sure, just...

298
00:12:34,405 --> 00:12:35,471
ATN?

299
00:12:36,140 --> 00:12:38,675
It's... It's like...

300
00:12:38,676 --> 00:12:41,511
- kind of against my principles.
- Your principles?

301
00:12:41,512 --> 00:12:44,114
Greg, don't be an asshole.
You don't have principles.

302
00:12:44,115 --> 00:12:46,816
Dude, ATN is a very toxic
element in the culture.

303
00:12:46,817 --> 00:12:50,354
Oh, seriously? Okay, name me
one principle that you have.

304
00:12:50,355 --> 00:12:52,389
I don't know, like, I'm against racism.

305
00:12:52,390 --> 00:12:56,116
Bullshit. I'm against racism.
Everybody's against racism.

306
00:12:56,117 --> 00:12:57,126
What else?

307
00:12:57,127 --> 00:12:59,161
- Like, don't lie.
- Fuck off.

308
00:12:59,162 --> 00:13:00,697
- Like, if you're the news, you...
- Fuck off!

309
00:13:00,698 --> 00:13:02,390
- That's your principle?
- Yeah, dude.

310
00:13:02,391 --> 00:13:05,502
Greg, this is not fucking
Charles Dickens world, okay?

311
00:13:05,503 --> 00:13:08,270
You don't go around
talking about principles.

312
00:13:08,271 --> 00:13:09,906
We're all trying to do the right thing,

313
00:13:09,907 --> 00:13:11,007
of course we are.

314
00:13:11,008 --> 00:13:12,808
But come on, man!

315
00:13:14,244 --> 00:13:15,644
Man the fuck up!

316
00:13:16,780 --> 00:13:19,415
Okay, I am manned, man.

317
00:13:19,416 --> 00:13:20,750
Here comes Cyd.

318
00:13:20,751 --> 00:13:22,519
Hey, Cyd! The Peach!

319
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,953
The legend!

320
00:13:23,954 --> 00:13:25,212
Oh, Tom!

321
00:13:25,213 --> 00:13:26,222
- Tom!
- Hey!

322
00:13:26,223 --> 00:13:27,857
It's great to have you aboard.

323
00:13:27,858 --> 00:13:29,325
I know that this is gonna be

324
00:13:29,326 --> 00:13:31,760
a really productive collaboration.

325
00:13:31,761 --> 00:13:33,128
I just hope

326
00:13:33,129 --> 00:13:35,764
that there's no... weirdness

327
00:13:35,765 --> 00:13:38,000
with our fuzzy boundaries, right?

328
00:13:38,001 --> 00:13:40,435
Are you kidding? If you...
If you wanna go fast,

329
00:13:40,436 --> 00:13:43,772
go alone. If you wanna
go far, go together.

330
00:13:43,773 --> 00:13:45,182
- Right?
- Exactly.

331
00:13:45,183 --> 00:13:46,222
Yeah.

332
00:13:46,223 --> 00:13:47,848
- Come meet the team.
- Amazing!

333
00:13:47,849 --> 00:13:49,273
You wanna lead in there?

334
00:13:49,274 --> 00:13:51,199
Oh, fuck no.

335
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,092
- You lead, Tommy.
- Okay.

336
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:54,918
You mind if I big-ball the first one?

337
00:13:54,919 --> 00:13:57,185
Do it! Your funeral, buddy.

338
00:13:57,186 --> 00:13:59,021
Thank you, thank you.

339
00:13:59,022 --> 00:14:01,557
So did he actually even see my draft?

340
00:14:01,558 --> 00:14:02,615
Uh... no.

341
00:14:02,616 --> 00:14:04,707
In the end, I just thought
the draft Kelly and I did

342
00:14:04,708 --> 00:14:07,067
had more, uh, goodness.

343
00:14:07,068 --> 00:14:08,125
As in... ?

344
00:14:08,126 --> 00:14:09,717
As in it had the quality of being good

345
00:14:09,718 --> 00:14:11,332
rather than the
attributes of being shitty.

346
00:14:11,333 --> 00:14:14,302
Um, just also re Kelly, little sidebar.

347
00:14:14,303 --> 00:14:16,003
Can you not tell people about us?

348
00:14:16,004 --> 00:14:17,272
Oh, but there is no us.

349
00:14:17,273 --> 00:14:19,307
Right. but there was an
us, and the problem is,

350
00:14:19,308 --> 00:14:20,575
my wife doesn't know about it.

351
00:14:20,576 --> 00:14:22,777
Oh, but my husband
absolutely does know about it,

352
00:14:22,778 --> 00:14:25,213
so I guess that's,
what, it's your problem?

353
00:14:25,214 --> 00:14:26,514
We had the affair.

354
00:14:26,515 --> 00:14:27,915
We didn't have the conversation

355
00:14:27,916 --> 00:14:29,551
about telling people we had the affair.

356
00:14:29,552 --> 00:14:31,286
I'm sorry, Nate, did you
want a conference call

357
00:14:31,287 --> 00:14:33,587
to discuss how to tell
your wife we fucked?

358
00:14:35,491 --> 00:14:37,091
Thank you, everyone.

359
00:14:37,092 --> 00:14:39,359
Great event. Great event.

360
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,028
Thank you, everyone, so much.

361
00:14:42,029 --> 00:14:43,197
And the polling!

362
00:14:43,198 --> 00:14:45,865
My God! I mean, nobody's
getting carried away,

363
00:14:45,866 --> 00:14:47,634
just one set of numbers,

364
00:14:47,635 --> 00:14:50,770
one pretty big set of numbers. Right?

365
00:14:50,771 --> 00:14:55,375
Right, so thank you. And
testament to your faith.

366
00:14:55,376 --> 00:14:56,743
Thank you. Please,

367
00:14:56,744 --> 00:14:59,012
indulge yourselves in some, uh,

368
00:14:59,013 --> 00:15:01,281
gluten and melted cheese. Why not?

369
00:15:01,282 --> 00:15:02,916
Thank you, thank you.

370
00:15:02,917 --> 00:15:04,651
Mm.

371
00:15:04,652 --> 00:15:06,253
Hey, uh, how was the call?

372
00:15:06,254 --> 00:15:09,188
Great. They're eating
out of my ass crack.

373
00:15:09,189 --> 00:15:12,325
Offered me use of the
fucking jet on the weekend.

374
00:15:12,326 --> 00:15:14,227
Uh, yeah, I mean, the legals are wonky

375
00:15:14,228 --> 00:15:16,996
and the optics are shitty, but go ahead.

376
00:15:18,666 --> 00:15:19,833
Look.

377
00:15:19,834 --> 00:15:22,335
You don't look a gift
Boeing in the teeth.

378
00:15:22,336 --> 00:15:23,903
Right? Right?

379
00:15:23,904 --> 00:15:25,504
- No.
- I'll be so much fresher.

380
00:15:26,974 --> 00:15:29,308
Excuse us for a second. I just wanna...

381
00:15:29,309 --> 00:15:30,877
Ma'am, listen.

382
00:15:30,878 --> 00:15:32,746
Long road to travel and all of that,

383
00:15:32,747 --> 00:15:35,581
but the compass points
to Pennsylvania Avenue.

384
00:15:35,582 --> 00:15:37,716
I have to start thinking
about appointments.

385
00:15:39,453 --> 00:15:41,186
I'm thinking about Chief of Staff.

386
00:15:42,156 --> 00:15:44,857
Uh... Oh, wow.

387
00:15:44,858 --> 00:15:46,125
Yeah.

388
00:15:46,126 --> 00:15:49,528
I mean, can you imagine the look of fear

389
00:15:49,529 --> 00:15:52,131
in their eyes when they
see you coming at them?

390
00:15:52,132 --> 00:15:54,566
Those corpulent old white fucks.

391
00:15:54,567 --> 00:15:56,068
Huh?

392
00:15:56,069 --> 00:15:57,702
How's that for a carrot?

393
00:15:58,104 --> 00:15:59,236
Hm?

394
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,175
So that's where we shape the debate.

395
00:16:03,176 --> 00:16:05,577
Ooh, cool shit.

396
00:16:05,578 --> 00:16:08,180
And I love the way the
debate keeps on getting shaped

397
00:16:08,181 --> 00:16:10,282
like a burning cross.

398
00:16:10,283 --> 00:16:12,184
You don't share our news values.

399
00:16:12,185 --> 00:16:13,385
Oh, I'm kidding.

400
00:16:13,386 --> 00:16:15,453
I'm kidding. I get it.
I'm from the Midwest.

401
00:16:15,454 --> 00:16:18,090
You know, my mom's friend,
Deb, weighs, like, 300 pounds,

402
00:16:18,091 --> 00:16:20,258
and she's pissed as fuck
about practically everything,

403
00:16:20,259 --> 00:16:22,260
so, you know, trust me,

404
00:16:22,261 --> 00:16:23,828
I'm down. I get it.

405
00:16:23,829 --> 00:16:26,964
Besides, what Logan
wants, Logan gets, right?

406
00:16:26,965 --> 00:16:29,568
Logan doesn't set our news agenda.

407
00:16:29,569 --> 00:16:32,404
Oh. No, of course he doesn't.

408
00:16:32,405 --> 00:16:34,038
I know, it's so weird, huh?

409
00:16:34,039 --> 00:16:36,074
He happens to own a news company

410
00:16:36,075 --> 00:16:38,476
and they say exactly what he thinks.

411
00:16:38,477 --> 00:16:40,212
If Logan had to tell me

412
00:16:40,213 --> 00:16:41,979
or any of my news editors

413
00:16:41,980 --> 00:16:44,249
what to run or what the angle was,

414
00:16:44,250 --> 00:16:47,185
we would be fucked.
That is not how it works.

415
00:16:47,186 --> 00:16:48,620
This isn't mind control.

416
00:16:48,621 --> 00:16:51,155
We hire people who want to work here.

417
00:16:51,156 --> 00:16:52,590
and we serve a demographic

418
00:16:52,591 --> 00:16:55,792
of highly, highly intelligent viewers,

419
00:16:55,793 --> 00:16:57,861
who are really tired

420
00:16:57,862 --> 00:16:59,963
of being patronized elsewhere

421
00:16:59,964 --> 00:17:02,733
by latte-sipping douchebags

422
00:17:02,734 --> 00:17:04,467
with hundred-dollar haircuts.

423
00:17:06,371 --> 00:17:08,472
You've got the cool job title,

424
00:17:08,473 --> 00:17:09,740
you've got freedom of movement.

425
00:17:09,741 --> 00:17:12,943
Why don't you take a
look somewhere more comfy?

426
00:17:12,944 --> 00:17:13,977
Entertainment?

427
00:17:13,978 --> 00:17:15,679
'Cause this is where the action is.

428
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,748
This is the profit center.

429
00:17:17,749 --> 00:17:21,518
The median age of our audience is 68.

430
00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:25,421
The ads are all adult
diapers and shit pills.

431
00:17:25,422 --> 00:17:27,357
Our lead in the news demo has halved.

432
00:17:27,358 --> 00:17:28,959
You know, maybe I can

433
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,427
lend a hand to take a
look at some of that.

434
00:17:31,428 --> 00:17:32,829
You know,

435
00:17:32,830 --> 00:17:35,632
he sends me one of you every four years.

436
00:17:35,633 --> 00:17:38,235
- That train is never late.
- Interesting.

437
00:17:38,236 --> 00:17:40,937
And tell me, these others that he sends,

438
00:17:40,938 --> 00:17:42,772
were they his son-in-law too?

439
00:17:43,540 --> 00:17:45,541
I'm curious.

440
00:17:45,542 --> 00:17:49,012
Efficiencies, Cyd! I'm
here to trim the flab.

441
00:17:49,013 --> 00:17:50,914
Have you told Logan this?

442
00:17:50,915 --> 00:17:52,949
I spy savings, Cyd.

443
00:17:52,950 --> 00:17:54,818
Oh, good, Tom.

444
00:17:54,819 --> 00:17:56,119
That's very good.

445
00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:58,920
Because I run a pretty tight ship.

446
00:17:59,556 --> 00:18:00,556
So...

447
00:18:01,558 --> 00:18:02,692
good luck to you.

448
00:18:02,693 --> 00:18:06,061
I'm sure you've got
him very, very excited.

449
00:18:06,062 --> 00:18:07,862
I hope you can deliver.

450
00:18:11,034 --> 00:18:12,402
Well...

451
00:18:12,403 --> 00:18:13,903
Thank you very much.

452
00:18:13,904 --> 00:18:15,838
And, uh, fuck you.

453
00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:18,040
And, uh, I'll catch up with you later.

454
00:18:18,041 --> 00:18:21,042
Not on your dying day, baby.

455
00:18:23,046 --> 00:18:25,948
Greg, I need you on the ground.

456
00:18:25,949 --> 00:18:27,082
- Oh.
- Okay?

457
00:18:27,083 --> 00:18:28,951
I need you to be my
representative on earth.

458
00:18:28,952 --> 00:18:31,086
I want you to... I want you
to go on a mission for me

459
00:18:31,087 --> 00:18:32,588
and body-shame ATN,

460
00:18:32,589 --> 00:18:34,656
find the fat and point it out.

461
00:18:34,657 --> 00:18:36,058
Yeah, like, how?

462
00:18:36,059 --> 00:18:37,426
Like, find the excess, okay?

463
00:18:37,427 --> 00:18:40,662
Find the extraneous Danish,
the surfeit of stationary,

464
00:18:40,663 --> 00:18:43,665
the... the lazy cleaner,
the mail guy who walks slow.

465
00:18:43,666 --> 00:18:45,667
Okay? Snuffle out waste, pig man.

466
00:18:45,668 --> 00:18:47,669
Okay, I'll do the penthouse,
you do the basement.

467
00:18:47,670 --> 00:18:49,503
- All right?
- Yeah, yeah, you got it.

468
00:18:50,673 --> 00:18:52,340
Wait, uh, which are these?

469
00:18:53,877 --> 00:18:56,312
You know what? I'm not sure.

470
00:18:56,313 --> 00:18:57,411
Let me go check.

471
00:19:00,116 --> 00:19:02,483
Keep it coming. Fuckin'
drown him in paper.

472
00:19:08,291 --> 00:19:09,491
Good night, Kendall.

473
00:19:09,492 --> 00:19:10,591
Night, dude.

474
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,597
What's he doing?

475
00:19:15,598 --> 00:19:16,997
I dunno. Reading?

476
00:19:19,134 --> 00:19:20,736
Thanks, useless.

477
00:19:20,737 --> 00:19:22,403
Drink your smoothie and shut up.

478
00:19:27,142 --> 00:19:28,876
Actually drinking the smoothie...

479
00:19:39,288 --> 00:19:40,822
I can give you 52 seconds.

480
00:19:40,823 --> 00:19:42,624
Well, I'm in at Vaulter.

481
00:19:42,625 --> 00:19:43,724
Yeah, so?

482
00:19:43,725 --> 00:19:45,826
Yeah, so, let's fucking game this out.

483
00:19:45,827 --> 00:19:47,896
Roman, we are in a proxy war.

484
00:19:47,897 --> 00:19:49,497
The plane has just been hijacked,

485
00:19:49,498 --> 00:19:51,299
all the engines have
fallen into the sea,

486
00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:52,833
and the pilot's hair is on fire.

487
00:19:52,834 --> 00:19:54,535
Gerri, come on, I need something.

488
00:19:54,536 --> 00:19:55,569
Kendall's doing shit.

489
00:19:55,570 --> 00:19:57,605
Okay, how about this: you do shit.

490
00:19:57,606 --> 00:19:58,839
What have you got?

491
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,708
One idea: pivot to video?

492
00:20:00,709 --> 00:20:02,143
Yeah, they tried that already.

493
00:20:02,144 --> 00:20:04,279
Can you just come over?
I want you in the room.

494
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,513
Can I come over?

495
00:20:05,514 --> 00:20:07,315
Yeah. Could... Yeah...

496
00:20:07,316 --> 00:20:08,316
Fuck you!

497
00:20:08,918 --> 00:20:09,950
Fuck you.

498
00:20:19,660 --> 00:20:22,829
Excuse me, folks, um,
could I maybe interest you all

499
00:20:22,830 --> 00:20:24,898
in going for one of those fuckin'...

500
00:20:24,899 --> 00:20:27,666
IPAs that looks like
run-off at the carwash?

501
00:20:28,502 --> 00:20:29,735
Is he in the chair?

502
00:20:32,237 --> 00:20:33,302
Hey, Dad?

503
00:20:37,178 --> 00:20:39,746
I need three independent
women. Know any?

504
00:20:39,747 --> 00:20:40,780
Uh-huh.

505
00:20:40,781 --> 00:20:42,182
The board?

506
00:20:42,183 --> 00:20:44,308
Be great if one was in
a fucking wheelchair.

507
00:20:45,394 --> 00:20:48,055
Black, white, green, pink.

508
00:20:48,056 --> 00:20:51,023
A Cambodian landmine
victim, if you know any.

509
00:20:51,024 --> 00:20:53,092
Yeah, be the change you
wanna see in the world.

510
00:20:53,093 --> 00:20:54,593
You're a real beacon of hope, Dad.

511
00:20:54,594 --> 00:20:56,062
Mm.

512
00:20:56,063 --> 00:20:57,762
What do you think about Pierce?

513
00:20:59,699 --> 00:21:02,234
Buying? PGM as a defense?

514
00:21:02,235 --> 00:21:04,670
I... Honestly, I think that's
chasing the white whale.

515
00:21:04,671 --> 00:21:05,838
Again.

516
00:21:05,839 --> 00:21:07,506
It's never gonna work,
it's not a good fit.

517
00:21:07,507 --> 00:21:08,740
Uh-huh.

518
00:21:08,741 --> 00:21:10,676
Dad, I was wondering
whether we should...

519
00:21:10,677 --> 00:21:12,111
talk.

520
00:21:12,112 --> 00:21:13,812
You know, about...

521
00:21:13,813 --> 00:21:15,414
It wasn't a dream, right?

522
00:21:15,415 --> 00:21:17,516
Are you kidding? I'm excited!

523
00:21:18,518 --> 00:21:19,818
So, let's talk.

524
00:21:19,819 --> 00:21:21,587
Should you go, or shall I?

525
00:21:21,588 --> 00:21:24,722
Uh, well, I have some ideas that I...

526
00:21:26,894 --> 00:21:30,654
Siobhan? What a surprise. He never said.

527
00:21:30,655 --> 00:21:31,997
- Hi.
- Hi.

528
00:21:31,998 --> 00:21:33,365
Just a pop-in.

529
00:21:34,533 --> 00:21:37,068
Pinkie was telling me how, um...

530
00:21:37,069 --> 00:21:39,504
Connor's moved into a hotel in the city.

531
00:21:39,505 --> 00:21:40,905
I saw.

532
00:21:40,906 --> 00:21:44,008
He sent out his email bulletin
with all the photographs.

533
00:21:44,877 --> 00:21:47,313
He rents a room, he rents a girl.

534
00:21:48,990 --> 00:21:51,849
Can you check if Richard's
turned off that fuckin' Alexa?

535
00:21:51,850 --> 00:21:53,651
Not just off, unplugged.

536
00:21:53,652 --> 00:21:57,555
I've got enough spies after
me without Bezos in here too.

537
00:21:57,556 --> 00:21:58,588
Okay?

538
00:21:59,457 --> 00:22:00,490
Right.

539
00:22:18,084 --> 00:22:19,150
So...

540
00:22:19,945 --> 00:22:21,244
here's how I see it.

541
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,347
Come in.

542
00:22:23,348 --> 00:22:26,283
Six months with Gerri,
six months with Karl.

543
00:22:26,284 --> 00:22:28,653
Hong Kong for, say, another 12.

544
00:22:28,654 --> 00:22:32,122
Uh, Berlin, or London.

545
00:22:32,123 --> 00:22:34,925
Management training program for six.

546
00:22:34,926 --> 00:22:39,328
Come back, spend 12 months alongside me.

547
00:22:39,329 --> 00:22:41,765
And when you're ready, I'll step aside.

548
00:22:41,766 --> 00:22:43,900
Wow, Dad, that's a lot of months.

549
00:22:43,901 --> 00:22:46,069
It's an appropriate amount of months.

550
00:22:46,070 --> 00:22:48,404
Also, management training program?

551
00:22:48,405 --> 00:22:49,839
Roman's COO.

552
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,507
You have a toddler with a hard-on

553
00:22:51,508 --> 00:22:52,842
for chief operating officer,

554
00:22:52,843 --> 00:22:55,111
and I'm going through a
management training program?

555
00:22:55,112 --> 00:22:57,013
You're a young woman with no experience.

556
00:22:57,014 --> 00:22:58,414
A woman. That's a minus.

557
00:22:58,415 --> 00:23:00,684
Well, of course it's a fucking minus!

558
00:23:00,685 --> 00:23:02,018
I didn't make the world!

559
00:23:02,019 --> 00:23:03,152
You make a small part of it.

560
00:23:03,153 --> 00:23:05,021
If that doesn't work for you, what does?

561
00:23:05,022 --> 00:23:07,014
That's a fucking... That's
a three-year timeline.

562
00:23:07,015 --> 00:23:08,057
Okay.

563
00:23:08,058 --> 00:23:09,858
So why don't you come in tomorrow

564
00:23:09,859 --> 00:23:10,960
and spend the day with me?

565
00:23:10,961 --> 00:23:12,795
Oh, Jesus Christ, Dad.

566
00:23:12,796 --> 00:23:14,163
What?

567
00:23:14,164 --> 00:23:16,432
I need time, I... I
haven't even told Tom yet.

568
00:23:16,433 --> 00:23:18,000
- Tell him.
- And there's Gil.

569
00:23:18,001 --> 00:23:20,336
I have a job, I can't
just come running to you.

570
00:23:20,337 --> 00:23:23,005
What is it, Siobhan,
too slow or too fast?

571
00:23:23,006 --> 00:23:24,840
Because I'm fucking confused.

572
00:23:24,841 --> 00:23:26,809
Dad, I want this.

573
00:23:26,810 --> 00:23:28,467
It's just about the process.

574
00:23:28,468 --> 00:23:29,593
Okay.

575
00:23:29,594 --> 00:23:30,779
Okay?

576
00:23:30,780 --> 00:23:32,392
So... you wanna get into it?

577
00:23:32,393 --> 00:23:33,430
Not now.

578
00:23:33,431 --> 00:23:34,850
I'm busy. Proxy statement.

579
00:23:34,851 --> 00:23:35,922
You didn't give me any warning.

580
00:23:35,923 --> 00:23:37,320
- All right.
- I mean, you know,

581
00:23:37,321 --> 00:23:38,620
tomorrow night could work?

582
00:23:38,621 --> 00:23:39,854
- That... Yeah.
- Tomorrow?

583
00:23:39,855 --> 00:23:41,923
Uh... Yeah, let me take a look.

584
00:23:41,924 --> 00:23:43,758
Oh, is that no good for you?

585
00:23:43,759 --> 00:23:45,627
I'm around.

586
00:23:45,628 --> 00:23:47,629
- I'm excited.
- Mm-hmm.

587
00:23:47,630 --> 00:23:48,863
Me too.

588
00:23:48,864 --> 00:23:50,965
I'll get back to you tomorrow...

589
00:23:50,966 --> 00:23:53,267
- on the names for the board.
- Mm-hmm.

590
00:23:57,668 --> 00:23:59,634
- Love you.
- I love you. Goodnight.

591
00:24:03,479 --> 00:24:04,479
All right.

592
00:24:05,181 --> 00:24:06,647
I haven't got all day.

593
00:24:11,371 --> 00:24:12,853
Agenda is Vaulter.

594
00:24:12,854 --> 00:24:14,622
We need a way forward
on the Vaulter problem

595
00:24:14,623 --> 00:24:17,391
ahead of investor
meetings in two days' time.

596
00:24:17,392 --> 00:24:20,126
Do you want to present jointly or... ?

597
00:24:20,357 --> 00:24:21,581
Ken?

598
00:24:21,582 --> 00:24:22,940
Yeah, I'll take it.

599
00:24:22,941 --> 00:24:26,433
Um, so, I've spent the last 36 hours

600
00:24:26,434 --> 00:24:29,002
on a deep dive into the
drivers of the business.

601
00:24:29,003 --> 00:24:30,837
Headline is, it's a body pit.

602
00:24:30,838 --> 00:24:33,140
Uh, they have mass of
data with no analytics.

603
00:24:33,141 --> 00:24:35,409
There's no way of telling
what's a hand and what's a foot.

604
00:24:35,410 --> 00:24:37,611
But it's still a killer business.

605
00:24:37,612 --> 00:24:39,313
The platform, the brands.

606
00:24:39,314 --> 00:24:42,216
Uh, ethos and culture are leading edge.

607
00:24:42,217 --> 00:24:45,451
And, um, in my view, it's fixable.

608
00:24:45,452 --> 00:24:46,887
It's funny how these fuck-ups

609
00:24:46,888 --> 00:24:48,889
always make the bottom line look fatter.

610
00:24:48,890 --> 00:24:51,224
All they need is adults in the room.

611
00:24:51,225 --> 00:24:53,493
Accounting team, analytics team,

612
00:24:53,494 --> 00:24:55,095
and, uh, investment.

613
00:24:55,096 --> 00:24:57,463
We burn 50 million for a few years,

614
00:24:57,464 --> 00:25:00,633
we... make it the best
thing in the world.

615
00:25:00,634 --> 00:25:02,635
Oh, is that all?

616
00:25:02,636 --> 00:25:05,370
Well, you always say
"Gotta burn to turn."

617
00:25:06,407 --> 00:25:07,841
Romulus, what's your read?

618
00:25:07,842 --> 00:25:09,309
You know, it's interesting, Dad,

619
00:25:09,310 --> 00:25:11,544
because I hear everything
that he's saying,

620
00:25:11,545 --> 00:25:14,347
and it actually... It almost
sounds like a good pitch.

621
00:25:14,348 --> 00:25:16,717
But... I call bullshit.

622
00:25:16,718 --> 00:25:18,851
I spent some time down there,
and I'm just not seeing it.

623
00:25:18,852 --> 00:25:20,686
Now, I don't know exactly
what they're doing,

624
00:25:20,687 --> 00:25:21,754
but they're fakes.

625
00:25:21,755 --> 00:25:24,223
Fucking beehives, almond milk, and...

626
00:25:24,224 --> 00:25:26,859
"Take another week on
that report, Matilda."

627
00:25:26,860 --> 00:25:28,460
It smells wrong,

628
00:25:28,461 --> 00:25:29,861
and they're hiding shit.

629
00:25:30,287 --> 00:25:31,563
Speaking of hiding shit,

630
00:25:31,564 --> 00:25:33,365
I took a couple of their staffers out,

631
00:25:33,366 --> 00:25:35,034
I got them shitfaced,

632
00:25:35,035 --> 00:25:36,602
and apparently,

633
00:25:36,603 --> 00:25:38,204
they're looking to unionize,

634
00:25:38,205 --> 00:25:39,437
and fucking soon.

635
00:25:40,486 --> 00:25:41,978
Oh, yeah?

636
00:25:41,979 --> 00:25:43,804
Pay transparency,

637
00:25:43,805 --> 00:25:45,229
bargaining rights.

638
00:25:45,230 --> 00:25:48,389
Just nasty, tangly shit.

639
00:25:48,390 --> 00:25:50,115
And it's not a body pit,

640
00:25:50,116 --> 00:25:51,574
whatever the fuck a body pit is.

641
00:25:51,575 --> 00:25:53,499
It's a fucking muesli pit,

642
00:25:53,500 --> 00:25:56,034
and doesn't fit with
our core, you know...

643
00:25:56,247 --> 00:25:57,538
values.

644
00:25:57,539 --> 00:26:00,225
So now I'm thinking we
just shutter the fucker.

645
00:26:00,226 --> 00:26:02,093
Close it? That's chunky.

646
00:26:02,094 --> 00:26:04,929
Come... I mean... He doesn't
know what he's talking about.

647
00:26:04,930 --> 00:26:06,297
That's just insane.

648
00:26:06,298 --> 00:26:08,666
The write-down on that would
be what? It's a bitter pill.

649
00:26:08,667 --> 00:26:10,835
Come on, I mean, i... i...
in the middle of a proxy fight

650
00:26:10,836 --> 00:26:12,771
when we've got Stewy and
Sandy taking out full-page ads

651
00:26:12,772 --> 00:26:15,506
in the Journal attacking
us for pissing capital up the wall?

652
00:26:15,507 --> 00:26:17,675
It... It... I mean,
it makes us look weak.

653
00:26:17,676 --> 00:26:19,210
No, it makes us look ruthless.

654
00:26:19,211 --> 00:26:22,180
And actually, I do know what
I'm fucking talking about.

655
00:26:22,181 --> 00:26:24,015
Dad, what the fuck are we doing?

656
00:26:24,016 --> 00:26:26,151
Show me the bloat anywhere
else in this company.

657
00:26:26,152 --> 00:26:27,776
Where is it? You show me.

658
00:26:27,777 --> 00:26:29,034
Show me the waste

659
00:26:29,035 --> 00:26:30,827
that we're letting these
fuckers get away with.

660
00:26:30,828 --> 00:26:33,257
Fine, so we restructure
them and we grow them...

661
00:26:33,258 --> 00:26:35,558
I think if we don't
shutter it, then we gut it.

662
00:26:35,559 --> 00:26:37,260
We carve that shit like a pumpkin.

663
00:26:37,662 --> 00:26:38,896
How?

664
00:26:38,897 --> 00:26:40,330
You hive off the profit center,

665
00:26:40,331 --> 00:26:42,631
you keep the domain name, the archive,

666
00:26:43,067 --> 00:26:44,100
um...

667
00:26:45,136 --> 00:26:46,536
Gut level, Dad,

668
00:26:46,537 --> 00:26:49,639
this thing is not coming back.
They're fuckin' assholes.

669
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:50,706
Dad.

670
00:26:51,391 --> 00:26:53,257
Vaulter can be our lodestar.

671
00:26:56,380 --> 00:26:59,348
Th... This is... This
isn't the time to retreat.

672
00:27:05,755 --> 00:27:07,322
Your brother's right. Gut it.

673
00:27:11,561 --> 00:27:12,561
Okay.

674
00:27:14,531 --> 00:27:16,098
Roman,

675
00:27:16,099 --> 00:27:19,000
I want you on the
proxy battle with Gerri.

676
00:27:19,870 --> 00:27:20,970
Kendall,

677
00:27:20,971 --> 00:27:23,539
you think you can gut Vaulter for me?

678
00:27:23,540 --> 00:27:24,906
Or you need help?

679
00:27:27,244 --> 00:27:29,111
I'll take care of it, Dad.

680
00:28:11,934 --> 00:28:13,760
Uh, you know, when Willa told me

681
00:28:13,761 --> 00:28:15,395
about moving to New York for her play,

682
00:28:15,396 --> 00:28:17,356
I thought, "Ah, I don't
want to move to the city."

683
00:28:18,132 --> 00:28:19,666
"I wanna stay on the ranch.

684
00:28:19,667 --> 00:28:21,068
Maybe I'll get me a new girlfriend."

685
00:28:21,069 --> 00:28:22,735
I'm kidding.

686
00:28:23,786 --> 00:28:25,405
No, I mean, it's true.

687
00:28:25,406 --> 00:28:28,075
It was pretty hard to wheedle
the old man out of the dessert.

688
00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:31,555
But, um, we're here now

689
00:28:31,556 --> 00:28:34,714
in our, um, not-so-humble home...

690
00:28:34,715 --> 00:28:36,249
hotel. Um.

691
00:28:36,250 --> 00:28:38,877
But, uh, friends, family, please,

692
00:28:38,878 --> 00:28:40,779
you know, feel free to drop in anytime,

693
00:28:40,780 --> 00:28:42,948
and, um, don't worry about all this,

694
00:28:42,949 --> 00:28:46,151
'cause it's on our tab. So...

695
00:28:46,152 --> 00:28:47,484
Okay. Great.

696
00:28:48,287 --> 00:28:49,721
Cheers!

697
00:28:49,722 --> 00:28:51,255
Okay.

698
00:28:52,725 --> 00:28:54,425
Hey, Con, thank you so much

699
00:28:54,426 --> 00:28:56,494
for taking care of the
sliders and all this shit.

700
00:28:56,495 --> 00:28:58,563
Yeah, and the champagne.
It's very big of you.

701
00:28:58,564 --> 00:29:00,698
And I love what you haven't
done with the place as well.

702
00:29:00,699 --> 00:29:02,667
Yeah, well, you know we
got a really good deal.

703
00:29:02,668 --> 00:29:04,202
And rehearsals are
right around the corner.

704
00:29:04,203 --> 00:29:05,703
Plus, I needed a place in the city

705
00:29:05,704 --> 00:29:07,205
'cause I'm gonna start ramping up soon.

706
00:29:07,206 --> 00:29:09,640
So I needed campaign headquarters.

707
00:29:09,641 --> 00:29:10,876
Wait.

708
00:29:10,877 --> 00:29:12,878
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

709
00:29:12,879 --> 00:29:15,213
- Are you still doing that?
- Very funny. Yes.

710
00:29:15,214 --> 00:29:16,714
I'm still applying for the job

711
00:29:16,715 --> 00:29:18,350
of President of the United States.

712
00:29:18,351 --> 00:29:19,784
Oh, good for you.

713
00:29:19,785 --> 00:29:21,018
Yeah. Do you...

714
00:29:21,019 --> 00:29:22,819
Do you think that that's
like a natural progression

715
00:29:22,820 --> 00:29:24,721
from "never done nothing, never,"

716
00:29:24,722 --> 00:29:26,390
to "most important job in the world?"

717
00:29:26,391 --> 00:29:27,791
- Well...
- Like, could you maybe

718
00:29:27,792 --> 00:29:30,094
get a little experience at,
like at a CVS, something, first?

719
00:29:30,095 --> 00:29:32,662
Yeah, yeah, or just, like,
nickel hand jobs under a bridge.

720
00:29:32,663 --> 00:29:34,543
- Start small.
- You guys have big plans for me.

721
00:29:35,133 --> 00:29:36,934
Place is a time machine.

722
00:29:36,935 --> 00:29:40,070
It's like 45 minutes every
time they need file tape,

723
00:29:40,071 --> 00:29:42,006
all the way to some warehouse in Queens.

724
00:29:42,007 --> 00:29:43,040
Okay, so?

725
00:29:43,041 --> 00:29:44,508
So, I don't know. I mean...

726
00:29:44,509 --> 00:29:46,410
How come it isn't digitized?

727
00:29:46,411 --> 00:29:49,079
The whole of ATN, it's
totally analog, Tom.

728
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,915
So I could fire people?

729
00:29:50,916 --> 00:29:53,550
Correct? If we did
this? If we digitized?

730
00:29:53,551 --> 00:29:56,052
I... I mean, you'd be removing, like,

731
00:29:56,053 --> 00:29:58,421
two links from the production
chain of every show.

732
00:29:58,422 --> 00:29:59,688
- But would it be...
- Okay, okay, okay.

733
00:29:59,689 --> 00:30:01,958
But... but in terms of skulls,

734
00:30:01,959 --> 00:30:04,427
how many skulls, do you think?

735
00:30:04,428 --> 00:30:06,062
- That we can lose?
- Yeah.

736
00:30:06,063 --> 00:30:08,831
I dunno. I... I guess, like, 30 or 50?

737
00:30:08,832 --> 00:30:10,332
Fifty skulls?

738
00:30:13,370 --> 00:30:14,670
I'm slavering, pig man!

739
00:30:14,671 --> 00:30:16,363
Fifty skulls is a lot of skulls!

740
00:30:16,364 --> 00:30:17,440
Yeah.

741
00:30:17,441 --> 00:30:20,109
I know, it's goo... It's... tons.

742
00:30:20,110 --> 00:30:22,110
Oh, look at this fuckin' prick.

743
00:30:23,547 --> 00:30:25,481
Yikes, I almost feel sorry for him.

744
00:30:25,482 --> 00:30:26,749
Oh yeah? Why?

745
00:30:26,750 --> 00:30:28,551
Just emptied the contents of his scrotum

746
00:30:28,552 --> 00:30:29,552
at Dad's feet.

747
00:30:30,620 --> 00:30:31,821
We're gutting Vaulter.

748
00:30:31,822 --> 00:30:33,388
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

749
00:30:33,389 --> 00:30:35,223
Is that a good idea?

750
00:30:35,224 --> 00:30:36,759
Fucking great idea.

751
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,294
It's Kendall's baby, and
now we're gonna burn it.

752
00:30:40,597 --> 00:30:43,398
Hey, um... So, we we're thinking, uh...

753
00:30:43,399 --> 00:30:45,033
me and, uh, Tabitha and I,

754
00:30:45,034 --> 00:30:48,570
uh, that we'd like to have
you and Tom over for dinner.

755
00:30:49,339 --> 00:30:51,206
Uh... sorry, what? Do you...

756
00:30:51,207 --> 00:30:53,308
Roman Roy, did you just
invite us to dinner?

757
00:30:53,309 --> 00:30:54,677
Oh, fuck you. All right, shut up.

758
00:30:54,678 --> 00:30:56,879
Yes, I did. Metro poser bullshit.

759
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,280
Napkins and chitchat.

760
00:30:58,281 --> 00:31:00,348
Ooh, race relations. Kale.

761
00:31:15,533 --> 00:31:16,623
Hey.

762
00:31:16,624 --> 00:31:17,716
Hey.

763
00:31:17,717 --> 00:31:19,308
Do you reckon if I called room service

764
00:31:19,309 --> 00:31:21,229
and asked them to poke
me in the eye, they would?

765
00:31:22,638 --> 00:31:24,071
It's pretty unbearable in there.

766
00:31:26,509 --> 00:31:27,574
Can I get a drag?

767
00:31:28,311 --> 00:31:29,311
Yeah.

768
00:31:32,215 --> 00:31:34,181
I hear Dad's got Vaulter in a crosshair.

769
00:31:37,085 --> 00:31:38,085
Roman?

770
00:31:40,014 --> 00:31:41,889
He shouldn't be talking
to you about that.

771
00:31:41,890 --> 00:31:44,425
Just seems like a bad move to me.

772
00:31:44,426 --> 00:31:46,792
I'm just saying, I always liked it.

773
00:31:48,696 --> 00:31:49,962
Yeah, well.

774
00:31:51,533 --> 00:31:52,732
Dad's right.

775
00:31:54,336 --> 00:31:55,735
Are you with him on this?

776
00:31:58,173 --> 00:32:00,040
He sees everything, Shiv.

777
00:32:01,676 --> 00:32:03,444
You have a hard time
finding a happy medium

778
00:32:03,445 --> 00:32:06,480
between worshipping him
and wanting to kill him.

779
00:32:06,481 --> 00:32:07,547
Huh?

780
00:32:11,718 --> 00:32:13,353
- The Vaulter thing.
- Mm.

781
00:32:13,354 --> 00:32:14,720
Gutting it.

782
00:32:14,721 --> 00:32:16,456
What if it's the wrong thing?

783
00:32:16,457 --> 00:32:17,957
I thought your dad agreed with you?

784
00:32:17,958 --> 00:32:20,760
Uh, yeah, he did. And
now they're doing it.

785
00:32:20,761 --> 00:32:23,062
They're actually doing
the thing that I said.

786
00:32:23,797 --> 00:32:25,065
Fuck.

787
00:32:25,066 --> 00:32:27,867
Think maybe you just did your job.

788
00:32:27,868 --> 00:32:29,234
Shall we get some more champagne?

789
00:32:29,736 --> 00:32:31,438
I mean...

790
00:32:31,439 --> 00:32:34,273
It could be right. It might
not be, but it could be.

791
00:32:35,709 --> 00:32:36,841
Maybe I'm smart.

792
00:32:37,811 --> 00:32:38,843
Sure.

793
00:32:39,646 --> 00:32:40,646
Maybe.

794
00:32:42,049 --> 00:32:43,516
You did a thing.

795
00:32:43,517 --> 00:32:44,649
Mazel tov.

796
00:32:45,295 --> 00:32:46,485
You know, I'm gonna...

797
00:32:46,486 --> 00:32:48,621
I'm gonna schedule
some time with your dad,

798
00:32:48,622 --> 00:32:50,322
and take him out for dinner
and wine him and dine him

799
00:32:50,323 --> 00:32:52,658
and make love to him
with my ideas, you know?

800
00:32:52,659 --> 00:32:54,326
This could be huge, Shiv.

801
00:32:54,327 --> 00:32:56,361
Tom, I think...

802
00:32:56,362 --> 00:32:57,963
I think we should talk.

803
00:32:59,332 --> 00:33:00,900
Uh...

804
00:33:00,901 --> 00:33:02,200
You wanna get out of here?

805
00:33:04,881 --> 00:33:05,905
Okay.

806
00:33:07,140 --> 00:33:08,975
Is this about ATN?

807
00:33:08,976 --> 00:33:10,810
Hey, you... you want something?

808
00:33:10,811 --> 00:33:12,411
I'll get you something.

809
00:33:17,584 --> 00:33:19,284
Ooh, that's a biggie.

810
00:33:19,285 --> 00:33:21,052
Is this about the arrangement?

811
00:33:21,053 --> 00:33:22,687
Look, Tom, it's...

812
00:33:22,688 --> 00:33:24,054
no, it's Waystar.

813
00:33:25,925 --> 00:33:27,158
This is never gonna happen,

814
00:33:27,159 --> 00:33:29,628
and I don't even trust
him, and even if I did,

815
00:33:29,629 --> 00:33:31,561
I'm not even sure that I would want it.

816
00:33:32,965 --> 00:33:34,297
But, uh...

817
00:33:37,436 --> 00:33:38,736
he offered it to me.

818
00:33:40,472 --> 00:33:41,472
To be next.

819
00:33:41,874 --> 00:33:42,906
Dad.

820
00:33:45,745 --> 00:33:46,778
Oh.

821
00:33:46,779 --> 00:33:48,346
- Oh my...
- Mm.

822
00:33:48,347 --> 00:33:50,481
Shiv... when?

823
00:33:50,482 --> 00:33:52,249
Uh, the Hamptons.

824
00:33:53,218 --> 00:33:54,651
The Hamptons?

825
00:33:56,121 --> 00:33:58,289
Oh, my God, Shiv, that's...

826
00:33:58,290 --> 00:34:00,424
That's like a week ago.

827
00:34:00,425 --> 00:34:02,092
Congratulations! What the fuck!

828
00:34:02,093 --> 00:34:03,961
I know!

829
00:34:03,962 --> 00:34:06,264
I mean, I... I... I
don't know what to think.

830
00:34:06,265 --> 00:34:08,199
Holy shit! I mean,

831
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,233
this is... huge!

832
00:34:11,236 --> 00:34:12,327
S...

833
00:34:12,328 --> 00:34:16,355
- So, I mean, do you...
- Want it? No!

834
00:34:16,356 --> 00:34:18,643
And I don't even trust him, so I...

835
00:34:18,644 --> 00:34:20,444
Because I thought that it was something

836
00:34:20,445 --> 00:34:22,180
that we wanted for me...

837
00:34:22,181 --> 00:34:23,347
- We do.
- ... to have it?

838
00:34:23,348 --> 00:34:24,515
- We do!
- That was... I mean,

839
00:34:24,516 --> 00:34:25,783
that was just the plan.

840
00:34:25,784 --> 00:34:27,417
That's st... still the plan.

841
00:34:27,418 --> 00:34:29,920
Me is just a modification of the plan.

842
00:34:29,921 --> 00:34:31,822
No, sure.

843
00:34:31,823 --> 00:34:33,724
It's q... quite a big modification.

844
00:34:33,725 --> 00:34:35,325
But d... d... so, did...

845
00:34:35,326 --> 00:34:36,560
d... did he...

846
00:34:36,561 --> 00:34:38,762
We... Uh, paint the
picture for me. What'd he...

847
00:34:38,763 --> 00:34:41,165
He asked me, and I said yes.

848
00:34:41,166 --> 00:34:43,033
But only as a play.

849
00:34:43,034 --> 00:34:44,501
Totally.

850
00:34:44,502 --> 00:34:46,670
So what was the play?

851
00:34:46,671 --> 00:34:49,639
Well, he's asked before, obviously,

852
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,141
and this time was real...

853
00:34:53,588 --> 00:34:54,879
so...

854
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,939
I thought I would be
deleveraging power if I said no.

855
00:34:57,940 --> 00:34:59,506
Exactly. Yes.

856
00:35:00,984 --> 00:35:04,588
Tom, this is 100 percent
not going to happen.

857
00:35:04,589 --> 00:35:07,357
But it's smart to say yes, right?

858
00:35:07,358 --> 00:35:09,025
I am so...

859
00:35:09,026 --> 00:35:10,793
excited for you!

860
00:35:10,794 --> 00:35:12,429
- Thank you.
- For us!

861
00:35:12,430 --> 00:35:14,497
I am.

862
00:35:14,498 --> 00:35:18,767
And you know, it's okay for
you to say that you want it.

863
00:35:19,704 --> 00:35:20,937
I'd support you.

864
00:35:20,938 --> 00:35:22,539
Well, look, I mean...

865
00:35:22,540 --> 00:35:25,141
Say I did want it,
w... and I... I don't,

866
00:35:25,142 --> 00:35:26,876
you know, you...

867
00:35:26,877 --> 00:35:29,246
if I was CEO of Waystar, I mean...

868
00:35:30,514 --> 00:35:32,750
I mean, you, honey, are
gonna be something huge.

869
00:35:32,751 --> 00:35:33,842
Yeah.

870
00:35:33,843 --> 00:35:35,167
Sure. Like what?

871
00:35:35,168 --> 00:35:36,458
I... I don't know.

872
00:35:36,459 --> 00:35:37,508
But we'll figure it out.

873
00:35:37,509 --> 00:35:39,956
Yeah, that's for later
on down... down the road.

874
00:35:39,957 --> 00:35:41,837
- Whenever. Just whenever.
- Wow.

875
00:35:46,263 --> 00:35:48,197
I mean, it's hilarious, right?

876
00:35:48,198 --> 00:35:49,431
Oh, yes!

877
00:35:49,432 --> 00:35:51,532
It's fucking funny!

878
00:35:55,038 --> 00:35:56,239
Yeah...

879
00:35:56,240 --> 00:35:58,074
- Hey, come here.
- Hey.

880
00:35:58,075 --> 00:35:59,374
- Mm.
- Hey.

881
00:36:00,110 --> 00:36:02,078
Oh. Oh, now?

882
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:03,646
- Mm. Why not?
- Well, let me just...

883
00:36:03,647 --> 00:36:05,438
Hang on. Let me just
go and brush my teeth.

884
00:36:05,439 --> 00:36:06,481
No.

885
00:36:06,482 --> 00:36:08,015
- No, come here.
- Okay.

886
00:36:10,552 --> 00:36:13,421
I... I hear your brother's
running for president.

887
00:36:13,422 --> 00:36:15,223
Maybe we should get him here.

888
00:36:15,224 --> 00:36:17,525
He seems like the... the serious one.

889
00:36:17,526 --> 00:36:20,027
Right. Lawrence, we have a problem.

890
00:36:20,945 --> 00:36:22,335
Okay?

891
00:36:22,336 --> 00:36:24,069
My dad wants to shut you down.

892
00:36:25,601 --> 00:36:28,603
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah.

893
00:36:28,604 --> 00:36:30,806
But I don't want you
to worry about my dad.

894
00:36:30,807 --> 00:36:32,407
Okay? I can handle my dad.

895
00:36:32,408 --> 00:36:33,608
The fuck you talking about?

896
00:36:33,609 --> 00:36:35,143
I know what's going on here.

897
00:36:35,144 --> 00:36:37,879
Right? It's a... It's a...
It's a Potemkin village.

898
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,514
I mean, the engagement and bounce rate

899
00:36:39,515 --> 00:36:41,582
have been inflated and
fucked around so much

900
00:36:41,583 --> 00:36:43,217
they're impossible to verify.

901
00:36:43,218 --> 00:36:45,186
your share stats, the... the churn,

902
00:36:45,187 --> 00:36:47,488
the SEO traffic KPIs are all bullshit.

903
00:36:47,489 --> 00:36:51,158
I mean, you suckered me
in, and, uh, I bought it.

904
00:36:51,159 --> 00:36:54,028
We had a couple shitty traffic months...

905
00:36:54,029 --> 00:36:56,188
Uh, Facebook changed their algorithm.

906
00:36:56,189 --> 00:36:57,213
Uh-huh.

907
00:36:57,214 --> 00:36:58,590
- We got face-fucked, okay?
- All right.

908
00:36:58,591 --> 00:36:59,915
We're turning the corner now.

909
00:36:59,916 --> 00:37:00,916
Okay.

910
00:37:01,670 --> 00:37:03,003
O... Okay.

911
00:37:03,004 --> 00:37:05,238
What? Yeah, o... okay.
Is... Is that real?

912
00:37:06,709 --> 00:37:08,775
- From Logan?
- Look, I can fix this.

913
00:37:09,678 --> 00:37:11,779
Okay? But no more obfuscation.

914
00:37:11,780 --> 00:37:13,448
No more shitty data.

915
00:37:13,449 --> 00:37:16,483
I need the full, fiber-optic,
clear-channel shit.

916
00:37:16,484 --> 00:37:19,253
CT scan the whole
place, and we move fast.

917
00:37:19,254 --> 00:37:20,620
Okay.

918
00:37:20,621 --> 00:37:22,755
Do you like double-crossing your dad?

919
00:37:24,059 --> 00:37:25,525
Oh, that's your favorite.

920
00:37:25,526 --> 00:37:27,127
Isn't it?

921
00:37:27,128 --> 00:37:31,731
I'm of the opinion he can be
persuaded he's making a mistake.

922
00:37:34,469 --> 00:37:35,634
- Okay?
- Okay.

923
00:37:37,005 --> 00:37:38,239
Oh yeah, w... Uh, one more thing.

924
00:37:38,240 --> 00:37:42,309
I... I... I need everyone
to cool it on unionizing.

925
00:37:42,310 --> 00:37:43,844
Okay, they're not gonna do that.

926
00:37:43,845 --> 00:37:46,080
Half of them are about
to sign union cards.

927
00:37:46,081 --> 00:37:47,146
Let me speak to them.

928
00:37:49,150 --> 00:37:51,317
Everyone here fucking hates you.

929
00:37:53,721 --> 00:37:55,220
I think I can take it.

930
00:37:56,123 --> 00:37:58,091
Hey, everyone. Thanks for...

931
00:37:58,092 --> 00:38:00,494
Thanks for gathering.
This'll just be a minute.

932
00:38:00,495 --> 00:38:02,362
Can you... Can you guys
hear me in the back?

933
00:38:02,363 --> 00:38:03,962
Yeah?

934
00:38:04,532 --> 00:38:05,564
Uh...

935
00:38:06,634 --> 00:38:07,634
Vaulter.

936
00:38:08,603 --> 00:38:11,671
Hey, um... Okay.

937
00:38:11,672 --> 00:38:13,940
Look, some of you might
have noticed this already,

938
00:38:13,941 --> 00:38:17,010
but, uh, just so you're
getting it direct from me,

939
00:38:17,011 --> 00:38:20,580
uh, Waystar management has been
taking a look at the business

940
00:38:20,581 --> 00:38:21,815
over the last week.

941
00:38:21,816 --> 00:38:24,116
But I just wanna say
this to you in person...

942
00:38:25,289 --> 00:38:28,482
I believe Vaulter is the
future of this company.

943
00:38:28,483 --> 00:38:29,574
Sure.

944
00:38:29,575 --> 00:38:32,124
I'm Se... I'm fuckin' s... dead serious.

945
00:38:32,125 --> 00:38:33,959
Just... You can't question my belief

946
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,529
in what you've all built here.

947
00:38:36,530 --> 00:38:39,665
You know, in... in... in
what Lawrence has built.

948
00:38:39,666 --> 00:38:41,366
But if we're gonna come through here,

949
00:38:41,367 --> 00:38:43,302
we need to be light on our feet.

950
00:38:43,303 --> 00:38:45,237
That's why I personally think

951
00:38:45,238 --> 00:38:48,340
it would be a mistake
for you to unionize.

952
00:38:49,643 --> 00:38:50,843
Just... Just hear me out.

953
00:38:50,844 --> 00:38:52,077
Okay, we will get you

954
00:38:52,078 --> 00:38:54,814
a really punchy independent
arbitration panel,

955
00:38:54,815 --> 00:38:56,081
we'll get you a pay bump.

956
00:38:56,082 --> 00:38:58,215
I know a lot of you are
flirting with the guild,

957
00:38:58,216 --> 00:39:00,251
and I'm just asking you to consider

958
00:39:00,252 --> 00:39:01,686
putting that on ice.

959
00:39:01,687 --> 00:39:04,054
And let's try and
figure this out inside.

960
00:39:04,824 --> 00:39:06,390
We keep it in the...

961
00:39:06,391 --> 00:39:09,928
fuckin' super cheesy,
but in the Waystar family.

962
00:39:09,929 --> 00:39:14,065
'Cause we do not want an
adversarial situation here.

963
00:39:14,066 --> 00:39:16,634
Okay, we want communication,

964
00:39:16,635 --> 00:39:18,402
we want engagement.

965
00:39:18,403 --> 00:39:20,004
So let's all pull together

966
00:39:20,005 --> 00:39:21,372
and go back to your desks

967
00:39:21,373 --> 00:39:24,642
and generate me five, ten, 100 ideas

968
00:39:24,643 --> 00:39:26,309
and hit me and my man here up.

969
00:39:26,745 --> 00:39:27,745
Okay?

970
00:39:29,081 --> 00:39:30,114
Thank you.

971
00:39:30,115 --> 00:39:32,383
Yeah, I don't know, Stanley.

972
00:39:32,384 --> 00:39:34,384
I... I just don't know if I could ever

973
00:39:34,385 --> 00:39:36,553
practically make use of this area.

974
00:39:36,554 --> 00:39:39,756
That's just a mezzanine.
You know, it's just a bonus.

975
00:39:39,757 --> 00:39:43,158
you have a... a living room
with under-stair storage.

976
00:39:44,261 --> 00:39:45,696
Sure. It's just...

977
00:39:45,697 --> 00:39:48,732
the thing I need storage for
most urgently of all, Stanley,

978
00:39:48,733 --> 00:39:49,899
is me.

979
00:39:50,568 --> 00:39:52,401
You know? I'm... I need...

980
00:39:53,538 --> 00:39:55,939
I need storage for myself.

981
00:39:55,940 --> 00:39:57,374
Dude, it's just a bed.

982
00:39:57,375 --> 00:39:58,541
You're overthinking it.

983
00:40:02,046 --> 00:40:03,078
Kendall?

984
00:40:04,382 --> 00:40:05,414
Totally.

985
00:40:06,234 --> 00:40:07,766
Yep, on my way.

986
00:40:14,257 --> 00:40:15,257
So?

987
00:40:15,826 --> 00:40:16,892
It's a maybe.

988
00:40:21,164 --> 00:40:22,397
Hey, Ken?

989
00:40:23,199 --> 00:40:24,400
Yo.

990
00:40:24,401 --> 00:40:25,534
Hey.

991
00:40:28,405 --> 00:40:29,639
I got the stuff.

992
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:31,305
- Thank you.
- Yeah.

993
00:40:33,443 --> 00:40:34,576
So, what do you think?

994
00:40:35,812 --> 00:40:37,947
Uh, of this? I think...

995
00:40:37,948 --> 00:40:39,381
it's...

996
00:40:39,382 --> 00:40:43,252
huge. It's, um, it's a very large space.

997
00:40:43,253 --> 00:40:45,187
What's the... what's the footage?

998
00:40:45,188 --> 00:40:46,922
Uh, I don't know.

999
00:40:46,923 --> 00:40:48,924
Developers overestimated demand,

1000
00:40:48,925 --> 00:40:52,327
so I bought all five units
and my guy's gonna flip 'em.

1001
00:40:52,328 --> 00:40:53,995
Yeah, 'cause i... it's...

1002
00:40:53,996 --> 00:40:55,897
an abundance of footage.

1003
00:40:55,898 --> 00:40:58,266
An embarrassment of... of footage.

1004
00:40:58,834 --> 00:41:00,102
Yeah.

1005
00:41:00,103 --> 00:41:01,503
It's yours.

1006
00:41:01,504 --> 00:41:03,272
I... I mean, until the
market starts to move,

1007
00:41:03,273 --> 00:41:05,074
- but...
- Until it starts to move.

1008
00:41:05,075 --> 00:41:06,407
No, I'm serious.

1009
00:41:07,544 --> 00:41:08,642
- Yeah.
- Like...

1010
00:41:09,845 --> 00:41:11,813
Yeah, you live here now, Greg.

1011
00:41:11,814 --> 00:41:13,148
Okay.

1012
00:41:13,149 --> 00:41:14,516
Uh, cool. Yeah.

1013
00:41:14,517 --> 00:41:18,053
I can take a lot in terms
of psychological pain, so...

1014
00:41:18,054 --> 00:41:20,755
Yeah. Sweet, I live here! Nice.

1015
00:41:20,756 --> 00:41:22,190
I'm totally serious.

1016
00:41:22,191 --> 00:41:24,425
Yeah, I know. I needed
a place to live, so...

1017
00:41:24,426 --> 00:41:26,294
Now, uh, now I got it!

1018
00:41:26,295 --> 00:41:28,096
Uh, here's your key.

1019
00:41:28,097 --> 00:41:30,131
Until I get a doorman downstairs.

1020
00:41:30,132 --> 00:41:31,499
I'm not fuckin' around.

1021
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:33,768
Like, it's just gonna be empty.

1022
00:41:33,769 --> 00:41:35,335
- It's not a big deal.
- Kendall.

1023
00:41:36,072 --> 00:41:37,337
What, dude?

1024
00:41:38,708 --> 00:41:40,609
This is fuck... Th... this is...

1025
00:41:40,610 --> 00:41:42,210
Dude, thank you.

1026
00:41:42,211 --> 00:41:43,677
So much, man.

1027
00:41:46,381 --> 00:41:49,017
Wow. I mean...

1028
00:41:49,018 --> 00:41:51,051
- Look at these ceilings.
- Yeah.

1029
00:41:51,052 --> 00:41:52,853
Nice height, you got big windows,

1030
00:41:52,854 --> 00:41:54,621
a lot of light.

1031
00:41:56,091 --> 00:41:58,191
Yeah. Have you ever had your own place?

1032
00:41:58,994 --> 00:42:00,128
Fuck yeah.

1033
00:42:00,129 --> 00:42:02,997
I was thinking we
could hang out tonight.

1034
00:42:02,998 --> 00:42:04,198
- Yeah.
- Like, in here.

1035
00:42:04,199 --> 00:42:06,066
- Sure.
- Have a little party.

1036
00:42:06,067 --> 00:42:07,301
Sweet.

1037
00:42:07,302 --> 00:42:08,469
Hi!

1038
00:42:08,470 --> 00:42:10,605
- Hi!
- Tom Wambsgans.

1039
00:42:10,606 --> 00:42:11,772
Hi!

1040
00:42:11,773 --> 00:42:13,274
- Manly handshake.
- Manly handshake.

1041
00:42:18,013 --> 00:42:19,380
- Uh...
- I have this...

1042
00:42:19,381 --> 00:42:21,715
overwhelming urge to either
knee someone in the vagina

1043
00:42:21,716 --> 00:42:23,017
or spit on the floor.

1044
00:42:23,018 --> 00:42:25,953
Hmm. He's been a little
bit nervous about tonight.

1045
00:42:25,954 --> 00:42:28,122
Nervous, come the fuck on.

1046
00:42:28,123 --> 00:42:31,058
For din-dins with
firecrotch and normcore?

1047
00:42:31,059 --> 00:42:32,059
Please.

1048
00:42:33,128 --> 00:42:34,662
Well, come on in!

1049
00:42:34,663 --> 00:42:36,263
Have some champagne.

1050
00:42:36,264 --> 00:42:38,799
Enjoy our beautiful room.

1051
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,968
Could spend your whole life
here. That's how I figure it.

1052
00:42:40,969 --> 00:42:43,403
Born on the couch and cremated in here.

1053
00:42:43,404 --> 00:42:44,772
Can I get a Diet Coke?

1054
00:42:44,773 --> 00:42:46,040
Oh, Tom has a cold,

1055
00:42:46,041 --> 00:42:47,507
and he wants everyone to know.

1056
00:42:47,508 --> 00:42:48,508
Oh.

1057
00:42:48,509 --> 00:42:50,243
Well, we could send out for some saline,

1058
00:42:50,244 --> 00:42:52,479
we could stand around and
watch you do a nasal wash.

1059
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,215
No, no. thank you. I'm good. Thank you.

1060
00:42:55,216 --> 00:42:57,575
I'm hearing some stories
about that brother of ours.

1061
00:42:57,576 --> 00:42:58,967
Apparently...

1062
00:42:58,968 --> 00:43:01,555
You wanna actually drink that?
'Cause I got some stronger shit.

1063
00:43:01,556 --> 00:43:03,089
- Yeah.
- Do you like Japanese whiskey?

1064
00:43:03,090 --> 00:43:04,191
- Yeah.
- I've got this one

1065
00:43:04,192 --> 00:43:05,892
that tastes like fucking dragonpiss...

1066
00:43:05,893 --> 00:43:07,333
You should try swallowing something.

1067
00:43:10,364 --> 00:43:11,430
Like honey.

1068
00:43:12,900 --> 00:43:14,132
I'm fine, thank you.

1069
00:43:15,203 --> 00:43:17,136
Word is he's on maneuvers again.

1070
00:43:17,137 --> 00:43:20,207
Making all kinds of promises
about keeping Vaulter open.

1071
00:43:20,208 --> 00:43:22,041
What? Does Dad know?

1072
00:43:22,042 --> 00:43:23,410
Uh, hell no, Dad doesn't know.

1073
00:43:23,411 --> 00:43:25,478
He's a shenaniganizing piece of shit.

1074
00:43:25,479 --> 00:43:28,547
But the thing I keep
turning over in my mind is...

1075
00:43:29,650 --> 00:43:31,351
do I tell Dad?

1076
00:43:31,352 --> 00:43:33,552
Because if I drop the shoe on Ken now,

1077
00:43:33,553 --> 00:43:34,886
he's crushed forever.

1078
00:43:34,887 --> 00:43:36,822
Uh...

1079
00:43:36,823 --> 00:43:40,859
If Kendall's going
rogue, then... let him.

1080
00:43:40,860 --> 00:43:42,695
Sooner or later, it's
gonna blow up in his face.

1081
00:43:42,696 --> 00:43:44,697
I love it when it blows
up in people's faces.

1082
00:43:44,698 --> 00:43:46,897
- You do.
- I do. It's my fuckin' favorite.

1083
00:43:48,702 --> 00:43:50,436
I like how this is working.

1084
00:43:50,437 --> 00:43:52,104
Us. I see a future here.

1085
00:43:52,105 --> 00:43:53,305
Yeah. Sure.

1086
00:43:53,306 --> 00:43:54,406
- No, me too.
- Yeah.

1087
00:43:54,407 --> 00:43:55,887
'Cause, you know, there's an opening.

1088
00:43:56,943 --> 00:43:59,010
Yeah, see, no one sees me coming.

1089
00:43:59,011 --> 00:44:00,379
But I am right on the shoulder.

1090
00:44:00,380 --> 00:44:02,681
If Dad announces tomorrow,
he announces me.

1091
00:44:02,682 --> 00:44:04,350
Has to, there's no other option.

1092
00:44:04,351 --> 00:44:06,652
I mean, it's fucking insane,
but I am the best he's got.

1093
00:44:06,653 --> 00:44:07,686
Yeah.

1094
00:44:07,687 --> 00:44:09,754
Unless... There is one other.

1095
00:44:12,091 --> 00:44:13,158
Who?

1096
00:44:13,159 --> 00:44:15,426
Shiv, should I be worried about Tom?

1097
00:44:15,427 --> 00:44:17,295
Tom?

1098
00:44:17,296 --> 00:44:20,165
No, you don't need to
be worried about Tom.

1099
00:44:20,166 --> 00:44:21,233
Okay.

1100
00:44:21,234 --> 00:44:22,332
All right.

1101
00:44:24,971 --> 00:44:26,336
How's news, Tom?

1102
00:44:27,339 --> 00:44:28,974
Challenging.

1103
00:44:28,975 --> 00:44:30,975
Tough row to hoe, but, you know...

1104
00:44:31,677 --> 00:44:33,278
think I see a way out.

1105
00:44:33,279 --> 00:44:34,579
- It's good, yeah.
- Yeah?

1106
00:44:34,580 --> 00:44:36,313
A way out. Good for you, man.

1107
00:44:38,450 --> 00:44:40,685
So what is it, this way out?

1108
00:44:40,686 --> 00:44:43,421
Oh, it's early days, and I... Yeah.

1109
00:44:43,422 --> 00:44:46,190
I haven't even discussed
it with Logan yet, but...

1110
00:44:46,191 --> 00:44:47,592
Oh, so it's a secret?

1111
00:44:47,593 --> 00:44:49,059
That's fucking exciting.

1112
00:44:49,060 --> 00:44:50,860
When are you gonna tell
him, at the sleepover?

1113
00:44:51,963 --> 00:44:54,899
Well, um, no.

1114
00:44:54,900 --> 00:44:57,034
We're-looking in...
Well, I'm looking into

1115
00:44:57,035 --> 00:44:58,803
digitizing ATN.

1116
00:44:58,804 --> 00:45:02,273
Like, a total overhaul
of the... of the legacy

1117
00:45:02,274 --> 00:45:03,775
analog infrastructure.

1118
00:45:03,776 --> 00:45:04,909
Yeah.

1119
00:45:04,910 --> 00:45:06,544
Making a lot of
productivity gains as well,

1120
00:45:06,545 --> 00:45:08,979
so I think your dad
will be pretty pleased.

1121
00:45:08,980 --> 00:45:10,079
Fuckin' A.

1122
00:45:10,949 --> 00:45:12,617
Look at the corn-feeder.

1123
00:45:12,618 --> 00:45:14,919
Going all synergies and shit.

1124
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,554
- Yeah.
- Nice.

1125
00:45:16,555 --> 00:45:17,721
Worth a shot.

1126
00:45:17,722 --> 00:45:18,754
Thanks, man.

1127
00:45:27,765 --> 00:45:30,033
Where do you buy your
suits, by the way, Tom?

1128
00:45:30,034 --> 00:45:31,702
Like, maybe that's why

1129
00:45:31,703 --> 00:45:32,969
I'm just not moving as fast as you.

1130
00:45:32,970 --> 00:45:36,239
I just don't have that,
like, boxy, corporate look.

1131
00:45:36,240 --> 00:45:37,541
Right?

1132
00:45:37,542 --> 00:45:39,710
I mean, I'm sorry, but, like,

1133
00:45:39,711 --> 00:45:42,379
what the fuck? You
look like a Transformer.

1134
00:45:42,380 --> 00:45:44,381
Like, wh... what's wrong
with your body, man?

1135
00:45:44,382 --> 00:45:46,750
Rome, come on. There's
nothing wrong with his body,

1136
00:45:46,751 --> 00:45:48,051
it's just fuckin' suits.

1137
00:45:48,052 --> 00:45:51,087
What? Come on, we... we've
laughed about it before.

1138
00:45:51,088 --> 00:45:52,621
- You have?
- Yeah.

1139
00:45:52,622 --> 00:45:54,523
He's thrifty, and he has
the worst taste in suits.

1140
00:45:54,524 --> 00:45:55,825
Totally has terrible Ta...

1141
00:45:55,826 --> 00:45:57,860
You look like a divorce
attorney from the Twin Cities.

1142
00:45:57,861 --> 00:46:00,262
It's partly the walk.
It's like a real...

1143
00:46:00,263 --> 00:46:02,698
- Robot?
- No, agricultural walk.

1144
00:46:05,134 --> 00:46:06,769
Agricultural walk!

1145
00:46:06,770 --> 00:46:08,871
You know, I tried to get,
uh, one of his suits tailored

1146
00:46:08,872 --> 00:46:10,205
- by the guy that Dad uses.
- Mm-hmm.

1147
00:46:10,206 --> 00:46:12,407
- But he just looked so, like...
- Hey, Shiv? Fuck off.

1148
00:46:24,988 --> 00:46:27,655
So, I'm probably just gonna
sleep in the guest room

1149
00:46:27,656 --> 00:46:29,424
so I don't keep you awake.

1150
00:46:29,425 --> 00:46:31,092
Uh, are you kidding me?

1151
00:46:31,093 --> 00:46:33,261
What? We'll both sleep better.

1152
00:46:33,262 --> 00:46:34,262
Tom.

1153
00:46:35,197 --> 00:46:36,197
Come on.

1154
00:46:37,065 --> 00:46:39,267
We've just... We've gotten...

1155
00:46:39,268 --> 00:46:40,868
tangled up, okay?

1156
00:46:42,924 --> 00:46:44,282
Honey,

1157
00:46:44,283 --> 00:46:46,484
you're the only one I can
talk to about this stuff.

1158
00:46:48,143 --> 00:46:49,309
I need you.

1159
00:47:00,845 --> 00:47:03,061
- Now, I have a choice...
- Mm-hmm.

1160
00:47:03,062 --> 00:47:05,622
... to make. It's either Gil,

1161
00:47:05,623 --> 00:47:06,980
or it's Dad.

1162
00:47:06,981 --> 00:47:08,773
And it's a bit of a headfuck.

1163
00:47:08,774 --> 00:47:10,131
Okay.

1164
00:47:10,132 --> 00:47:11,765
Well, let's break it down.

1165
00:47:14,744 --> 00:47:16,301
'Cause here's what I've been thinking.

1166
00:47:16,302 --> 00:47:18,703
- Mm-hmm.
- What if a good person...

1167
00:47:19,373 --> 00:47:20,574
ran Waystar?

1168
00:47:20,575 --> 00:47:22,709
Yeah, I know. Waystar, it's...

1169
00:47:22,710 --> 00:47:24,644
You know, it's the family business.

1170
00:47:25,547 --> 00:47:26,880
It's your inheritance.

1171
00:47:26,881 --> 00:47:30,417
But, you know, you saw what
your dad did to Kendall.

1172
00:47:30,418 --> 00:47:32,920
There's gotta be a chance
he'll do the same to you.

1173
00:47:32,921 --> 00:47:34,854
Get bored of you once he's got you.

1174
00:47:34,855 --> 00:47:36,088
I dunno. Maybe it's about

1175
00:47:36,089 --> 00:47:38,825
keeping your options open, Siobhan.

1176
00:47:38,826 --> 00:47:40,827
Oh, yeah. Yes.

1177
00:47:40,828 --> 00:47:42,662
Can you not just...

1178
00:47:42,663 --> 00:47:45,531
see how it goes and
keep the plates spinning?

1179
00:47:45,532 --> 00:47:48,166
Go Dick Morris, run
things from out back?

1180
00:47:52,238 --> 00:47:53,238
Yeah.

1181
00:47:54,541 --> 00:47:55,975
Uh-huh.

1182
00:47:55,976 --> 00:47:57,208
That's the play.

1183
00:48:04,652 --> 00:48:06,318
Okay, where are we on office two?

1184
00:48:06,319 --> 00:48:08,320
I wanna be operational by tomorrow.

1185
00:48:08,321 --> 00:48:09,521
They're outside right now.

1186
00:48:09,522 --> 00:48:10,522
Let's go.

1187
00:48:13,793 --> 00:48:15,553
- IT's on their way?
- Mm-hmm.

1188
00:48:18,164 --> 00:48:20,431
They know where it's
going, seventh floor, right?

1189
00:48:52,364 --> 00:48:53,431
We all set?

1190
00:48:53,432 --> 00:48:54,597
Three minutes.

1191
00:49:02,141 --> 00:49:03,707
Okay, guys.

1192
00:49:03,708 --> 00:49:05,842
Everybody, if I could
just have a second.

1193
00:49:07,646 --> 00:49:10,780
I just wanted to update you
on a couple of developments.

1194
00:49:12,316 --> 00:49:14,184
Uh, some of you may have noticed

1195
00:49:14,185 --> 00:49:16,186
servers are down.

1196
00:49:16,187 --> 00:49:19,256
And we're setting a
satellite office on seven.

1197
00:49:19,257 --> 00:49:21,758
And I'm afraid I have to inform you,

1198
00:49:21,759 --> 00:49:23,193
you are all dismissed.

1199
00:49:25,229 --> 00:49:27,464
Yeah. You're... You're all fired.

1200
00:49:27,465 --> 00:49:29,599
So, if you can leave your
laptops where they are,

1201
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:30,633
and hand in your passes,

1202
00:49:30,634 --> 00:49:32,402
security will be coming around now.

1203
00:49:32,403 --> 00:49:34,336
I've been through
everything you've shown me.

1204
00:49:35,106 --> 00:49:36,206
Food and weed,

1205
00:49:36,207 --> 00:49:37,774
those are the only two verticals

1206
00:49:37,775 --> 00:49:40,444
driving revenue, so
we're folding them in

1207
00:49:40,445 --> 00:49:43,379
and, uh, yeah, you're all free to leave.

1208
00:49:43,914 --> 00:49:45,282
This is a joke.

1209
00:49:45,283 --> 00:49:47,416
You have 15 minutes
to gather your belongings

1210
00:49:47,417 --> 00:49:48,750
and exit the building.

1211
00:49:48,751 --> 00:49:51,954
Separation agreements will
be handed around shortly.

1212
00:49:51,955 --> 00:49:54,756
One week of severance per year served,

1213
00:49:54,757 --> 00:49:56,192
with full non-disclosure.

1214
00:49:56,193 --> 00:49:58,627
Post your little videos.
You get three days.

1215
00:49:58,628 --> 00:49:59,928
What the f...

1216
00:49:59,929 --> 00:50:02,764
Unused vacation days
will not be reimbursed.

1217
00:50:02,765 --> 00:50:04,733
Health benefits will be terminated

1218
00:50:04,734 --> 00:50:05,934
at the end of the month.

1219
00:50:05,935 --> 00:50:06,993
That's it.

1220
00:50:06,994 --> 00:50:09,004
I'd like to thank you
all for your hard work.

1221
00:50:09,005 --> 00:50:10,705
You piece of shit.

1222
00:50:16,946 --> 00:50:19,047
- Is that all you got?
- Fuck you.

1223
00:50:19,048 --> 00:50:20,349
Fuck you, man!

1224
00:50:20,350 --> 00:50:22,183
Hey. Hey!

1225
00:50:22,184 --> 00:50:24,753
Kendall, what the fuck are you doing?

1226
00:50:24,754 --> 00:50:26,287
What the fuck is going on?

1227
00:50:26,288 --> 00:50:29,357
Yeah, sorry about the,
uh, cloak and dagger.

1228
00:50:29,358 --> 00:50:31,760
I just needed some time
to untangle all your shit,

1229
00:50:31,761 --> 00:50:32,828
find the profit centers,

1230
00:50:32,829 --> 00:50:33,929
keep the union off our back.

1231
00:50:33,930 --> 00:50:36,064
We're already fully
operational on seven.

1232
00:50:36,065 --> 00:50:38,666
- Why?
- Because my dad told me to.

1233
00:50:40,202 --> 00:50:42,103
Because your dad told you to?

1234
00:50:43,469 --> 00:50:45,340
Jesus Christ.

1235
00:50:45,341 --> 00:50:47,608
Because your dad told you to?

1236
00:50:48,945 --> 00:50:50,611
You... You fucked it, bro.

1237
00:50:52,915 --> 00:50:53,915
Uh-huh.

1238
00:50:55,484 --> 00:50:58,252
Go find some other chicken coop, cunt.

1239
00:50:59,464 --> 00:51:00,488
What...

1240
00:51:00,489 --> 00:51:02,557
Are you fucking kidding me?

1241
00:51:02,558 --> 00:51:05,392
Because your dad told you to!

1242
00:51:06,529 --> 00:51:08,262
Are you a fucking idiot?

1243
00:51:09,565 --> 00:51:11,098
Kendall!

1244
00:51:19,542 --> 00:51:22,142
Yo, Ken. Yo, how's it going?

1245
00:51:23,845 --> 00:51:25,112
All good, Greg.

1246
00:51:25,113 --> 00:51:28,084
Just, you know, looking for
love in all the wrong places.

1247
00:51:28,085 --> 00:51:29,150
Yeah.

1248
00:51:29,151 --> 00:51:30,484
No, dude, exactly.

1249
00:51:30,485 --> 00:51:32,186
Listen, Ken, I was, uh,

1250
00:51:32,187 --> 00:51:35,790
super wiped and I... My
legs are just killing me.

1251
00:51:35,791 --> 00:51:37,424
And my lower back.

1252
00:51:37,425 --> 00:51:39,994
So do you think you could maybe
bring the party up to yours?

1253
00:51:39,995 --> 00:51:41,896
- Up to mine?
- Up to your place.

1254
00:51:41,897 --> 00:51:43,797
Yeah, I don't think so, Greg.

1255
00:51:45,567 --> 00:51:47,902
You know, I'm just, like...

1256
00:51:47,903 --> 00:51:51,671
I'm looking for pussy like
a fuckin' techno Gatsby.

1257
00:51:52,607 --> 00:51:54,308
Hell yeah! That's...

1258
00:51:54,309 --> 00:51:56,877
Hell yeah, man. Um...

1259
00:51:56,878 --> 00:51:59,379
There's also... some of
your acquaintances are maybe

1260
00:51:59,380 --> 00:52:00,747
humping in my bedroom?

1261
00:52:04,285 --> 00:52:05,618
If you c... Or...

1262
00:52:07,589 --> 00:52:09,389
Can talk to them...

1263
00:52:09,390 --> 00:52:10,990
I might like to go for a run

1264
00:52:10,991 --> 00:52:12,826
sometime tomorrow, if
we can make a space.

1265
00:52:12,827 --> 00:52:14,494
I need to test the hamstrings...

1266
00:52:14,495 --> 00:52:16,096
But no paps.

1267
00:52:16,097 --> 00:52:18,398
I don't need another shot of
me looking like a used dick.

1268
00:52:18,399 --> 00:52:20,334
You're him, right? You're the guy.

1269
00:52:20,335 --> 00:52:21,468
So they tell me.

1270
00:52:22,503 --> 00:52:24,304
Good to meet you, man! I like you, man.

1271
00:52:24,305 --> 00:52:27,107
I'm nothing without people like you.

1272
00:52:27,108 --> 00:52:28,208
Hey,

1273
00:52:28,209 --> 00:52:29,743
you and me, when this work gets done,

1274
00:52:29,744 --> 00:52:31,345
we go get a beer. What do you say?

1275
00:52:31,346 --> 00:52:32,679
- Yeah!
- Okay?

1276
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:33,947
- Yeah. Cool.
- All right.

1277
00:52:33,948 --> 00:52:35,908
- Great to meet you. All right.
- Yeah, yeah.

1278
00:52:46,851 --> 00:52:48,017
Hey, you want some gel?

1279
00:52:48,562 --> 00:52:49,562
Sorry?

1280
00:52:49,563 --> 00:52:51,364
Some Purell, for your hand.

1281
00:52:51,365 --> 00:52:53,299
How long's it been since
you touched a prole?

1282
00:52:53,300 --> 00:52:54,566
No thank you, Shiv.

1283
00:52:55,369 --> 00:52:56,836
Oh, come on. I'm... I'm kidding.

1284
00:52:56,837 --> 00:52:58,104
The joke being what, exactly?

1285
00:52:58,105 --> 00:52:59,605
That I wanna sanitize my hand

1286
00:52:59,606 --> 00:53:01,241
after I meet with a guy in the street?

1287
00:53:01,242 --> 00:53:02,275
Thank you. No. I'm good.

1288
00:53:02,276 --> 00:53:04,577
Yeah, it's a pretty shitty joke, Shiv.

1289
00:53:04,578 --> 00:53:05,845
I'm just saying

1290
00:53:05,846 --> 00:53:07,180
that I think that maybe we need to be

1291
00:53:07,181 --> 00:53:10,482
more respectful of the working folk.

1292
00:53:10,483 --> 00:53:11,750
Even internally?

1293
00:53:11,751 --> 00:53:13,252
- I mean...
- Okay, yeah. I get it Gil.

1294
00:53:13,253 --> 00:53:15,287
I don't want us
to fall into that trap.

1295
00:53:15,288 --> 00:53:16,546
No, I... I'm sorry, Shiv,

1296
00:53:16,547 --> 00:53:18,891
but I just think that maybe
you like in a kind of a bubble

1297
00:53:18,892 --> 00:53:21,193
and this kind of joke is
okay around your family

1298
00:53:21,194 --> 00:53:21,994
and friends.

1299
00:53:21,995 --> 00:53:23,328
Don't fucking give me that.

1300
00:53:23,329 --> 00:53:24,387
Excuse me?

1301
00:53:24,388 --> 00:53:27,199
Don't pull a guilt trip on me
'cause you're selling your soul.

1302
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,901
I'm sorry, do we have a problem here?

1303
00:53:28,902 --> 00:53:32,370
Jesus, Shiv, you need
a banana and a nap?

1304
00:53:32,371 --> 00:53:35,072
I think maybe we continue
this conversation in private.

1305
00:53:35,574 --> 00:53:36,708
Why?

1306
00:53:36,709 --> 00:53:38,177
You don't want him to know

1307
00:53:38,178 --> 00:53:39,678
you've still got my dad's
cock in your mouth?

1308
00:53:39,679 --> 00:53:42,247
I was discussing an
arrangement you recommended.

1309
00:53:42,248 --> 00:53:44,381
Oh, yeah, you did. Didn't you just, y...

1310
00:53:44,382 --> 00:53:45,440
Certainly discussed it.

1311
00:53:45,441 --> 00:53:46,532
I don't understand.

1312
00:53:46,533 --> 00:53:48,962
You're riding me over a
deal you told me to take.

1313
00:53:48,963 --> 00:53:50,654
Took it pretty quick though, didn't you?

1314
00:53:50,655 --> 00:53:52,690
Rolled over really fucking fast.

1315
00:53:52,691 --> 00:53:55,026
And now you're taking
reach-arounds and...

1316
00:53:55,027 --> 00:53:57,161
flights on a 787.

1317
00:53:57,162 --> 00:53:59,763
Where's this coming from, Siobhan?

1318
00:53:59,764 --> 00:54:02,666
I'm sorry, I think
maybe we should just...

1319
00:54:02,667 --> 00:54:03,692
reassess.

1320
00:54:03,693 --> 00:54:07,094
Perhaps I... Dick Morris things,
operate from the background?

1321
00:54:09,007 --> 00:54:10,274
Uh-huh. Okay. Yeah.

1322
00:54:10,275 --> 00:54:12,176
No, you know what I think?
I think you're right.

1323
00:54:12,177 --> 00:54:15,146
I think we need to reassess
more comprehensively.

1324
00:54:15,147 --> 00:54:16,680
Mm-hmm.

1325
00:54:16,681 --> 00:54:18,882
I think Nate is right, that your...

1326
00:54:18,883 --> 00:54:21,783
connections to Tom, ATN, are...

1327
00:54:22,486 --> 00:54:24,387
a distraction.

1328
00:54:24,388 --> 00:54:27,056
Oh yeah? Well you know
what? Actually, I'm out.

1329
00:54:28,759 --> 00:54:31,594
Actually, I just fired you, Shiv.

1330
00:54:31,595 --> 00:54:33,663
If you'd even noticed.

1331
00:54:33,664 --> 00:54:36,398
Well, I already fuckin' quit,
if you had any antennae.

1332
00:54:45,609 --> 00:54:47,409
Okay, it's done.

1333
00:54:48,445 --> 00:54:50,012
Vaulter's dead.

1334
00:54:50,013 --> 00:54:52,047
Four-hundred and
seventy-six off the payroll,

1335
00:54:52,048 --> 00:54:53,782
full-timers, freelance...

1336
00:54:53,783 --> 00:54:56,252
I, uh, negotiated an
early break from the lease

1337
00:54:56,253 --> 00:54:58,053
and hired an editor and five interns

1338
00:54:58,054 --> 00:54:59,421
for the two remaining verticals.

1339
00:54:59,422 --> 00:55:01,290
the rest will be user-generated,

1340
00:55:01,291 --> 00:55:04,259
reviews, upload pics, all that stuff.

1341
00:55:05,262 --> 00:55:07,096
Also, I harvested a ton of ideas

1342
00:55:07,097 --> 00:55:08,964
from the Vaulter staff before they left.

1343
00:55:08,965 --> 00:55:10,232
IP and start-up ideas.

1344
00:55:10,233 --> 00:55:13,968
Most of it's, you know,
bullshit but... you never know.

1345
00:55:15,372 --> 00:55:17,671
We'll say you tried to keep it alive.

1346
00:55:19,042 --> 00:55:21,210
Valiant efforts, et cetera.

1347
00:55:21,211 --> 00:55:22,844
I'm good. I'll wear it.

1348
00:55:27,983 --> 00:55:29,149
I should take this.

1349
00:55:32,021 --> 00:55:33,720
- Yeah?
- Dad?

1350
00:55:34,356 --> 00:55:35,990
I told Gil.

1351
00:55:35,991 --> 00:55:37,926
I'm ready. Let's get started.

1352
00:55:37,927 --> 00:55:40,861
Start... looping me in.

1353
00:55:40,862 --> 00:55:41,995
That's great.

1354
00:55:42,864 --> 00:55:43,964
I'll be in touch.

1355
00:55:49,871 --> 00:55:51,005
Everything okay?

1356
00:55:51,006 --> 00:55:52,840
Oh, yeah. Usual headaches.

1357
00:55:52,841 --> 00:55:54,875
Hey. Should I be in this?

1358
00:55:54,876 --> 00:55:56,144
Roman,

1359
00:55:56,145 --> 00:55:58,679
your brother's gonna be
working in here from now on.

1360
00:55:58,680 --> 00:55:59,737
Oh, yeah?

1361
00:55:59,738 --> 00:56:02,182
I need him across the proxy battle.

1362
00:56:02,183 --> 00:56:04,550
Can't afford communication slips.

1363
00:56:05,190 --> 00:56:06,190
Okay?

1364
00:56:09,557 --> 00:56:11,191
What are you waiting for?

1365
00:56:11,192 --> 00:56:12,659
A kiss?

1366
00:56:12,660 --> 00:56:15,928
Fuck off. Be gone. Bye bye.

1367
00:56:26,707 --> 00:56:28,240
Yes? Can I help you?

1368
00:56:29,010 --> 00:56:30,477
Fuck you looking at?

1369
00:56:30,478 --> 00:56:32,012
You did good, son.

1370
00:56:32,013 --> 00:56:33,045
Thank you.

1371
00:56:34,214 --> 00:56:35,546
Make yourself at home.

1372
00:56:59,672 --> 00:57:00,738
Comfortable?

1373
00:57:24,363 --> 00:57:27,131
Hey. Can I get a pack of
American Spirit Yellow?

1374
00:57:28,935 --> 00:57:30,068
One of these.

1375
00:58:18,438 --> 00:58:26,438
- Synced and corrected by<font color="#00BFFF"> Firefly</font> -
- <font color="#00ffff">www.MY-SUBS.com</font> -

1376
00:59:27,735 --> 00:59:29,621
There were some doubts as to...

1377
00:59:29,622 --> 00:59:32,565
whether an acquisition is
really what we need right now.

1378
00:59:32,566 --> 00:59:34,823
It is. The bigger the better.

1379
00:59:34,824 --> 00:59:36,848
And I have it.

1380
00:59:36,849 --> 00:59:39,106
This is a disaster.

1381
00:59:39,107 --> 00:59:40,496
We need to stop him.

1382
00:59:40,497 --> 00:59:43,134
Could you sit out the
corporate retreat this year?

1383
00:59:43,135 --> 00:59:45,227
Nah. It's a morale-booster.

1384
00:59:45,228 --> 00:59:47,912
Someone spiked the deal.

1385
00:59:47,913 --> 00:59:50,181
Which one of you boys did it?

1386
00:59:50,384 --> 00:59:54,977
Here's news: I... will... win.

1387
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,747
I'm afraid I have to inform
you, you're all fired.

1388
01:00:01,748 --> 01:00:03,697
Security will be coming around now.

1389
01:00:03,698 --> 01:00:06,364
- Why?
- Because my dad told me to.

1390
01:00:07,698 --> 01:00:09,505
In this episode, Kendall
shuts down Vaulter

1391
01:00:09,506 --> 01:00:11,363
which, you know, if you
saw the first season,

1392
01:00:11,364 --> 01:00:13,029
this was a sort of prized acquisition

1393
01:00:13,030 --> 01:00:16,313
that he captained the
strategy of acquiring.

1394
01:00:16,314 --> 01:00:19,463
It's interesting to me that
he's been through a tragedy,

1395
01:00:19,464 --> 01:00:22,863
he's in this submissive
relationship with his dad,

1396
01:00:22,864 --> 01:00:25,063
but maybe there's some freedoms you get

1397
01:00:25,064 --> 01:00:26,546
with being submissive, too.

1398
01:00:26,547 --> 01:00:28,488
And that you can do some tough stuff

1399
01:00:28,489 --> 01:00:31,197
if you feel like you're
not responsible anymore.

1400
01:00:35,161 --> 01:00:36,226
Is that all you got?

1401
01:00:36,227 --> 01:00:39,337
There's a big taboo against
spitting in people's faces.

1402
01:00:39,338 --> 01:00:42,154
It's like one of the
most weirdly intimate,

1403
01:00:42,155 --> 01:00:43,763
horrible things you can see.

1404
01:00:43,764 --> 01:00:47,321
Jeremy approached it
with his typical rigor.

1405
01:00:47,322 --> 01:00:50,617
And no doubt that he wanted
the acting scene partner

1406
01:00:50,618 --> 01:00:51,799
to do that to him,

1407
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:53,282
and do it as many times as we needed.

1408
01:00:53,283 --> 01:00:55,617
And credit to him because
I think it's a good scene.

1409
01:00:56,006 --> 01:00:57,988
Tom, it's great to have you aboard.

1410
01:00:57,989 --> 01:01:01,698
I just hope that there's no weirdness

1411
01:01:02,089 --> 01:01:03,613
with our fuzzy boundaries.

1412
01:01:03,614 --> 01:01:05,819
If you want to go fast, go alone.

1413
01:01:05,820 --> 01:01:07,738
If you want to go far, go together.

1414
01:01:07,739 --> 01:01:11,027
When we were thinking about
who would be the head of ATN,

1415
01:01:11,028 --> 01:01:12,922
that Tom would find himself up against,

1416
01:01:12,923 --> 01:01:14,608
we were just interested
in the sort of person

1417
01:01:14,609 --> 01:01:17,363
who could manage this very
tough news organization.

1418
01:01:17,364 --> 01:01:19,596
When we managed to cast Jeannie Berlin,

1419
01:01:19,597 --> 01:01:21,196
it clicked into place.

1420
01:01:21,197 --> 01:01:22,722
We serve a demographic

1421
01:01:22,723 --> 01:01:24,446
of highly intelligent viewers,

1422
01:01:24,447 --> 01:01:27,680
who are really tired of
being patronized elsewhere

1423
01:01:27,681 --> 01:01:31,972
by latte-sipping douche bags
with 100-dollar haircuts.

1424
01:01:32,489 --> 01:01:34,671
Yeah she's tough, she
could cope with this.

1425
01:01:34,672 --> 01:01:35,905
And she believes in it as well.

1426
01:01:35,906 --> 01:01:38,073
It's not like Tom who's
kind of slightly trying

1427
01:01:38,074 --> 01:01:40,863
on the trousers of that organization.

1428
01:01:40,864 --> 01:01:42,272
She kinda lives and breathes it.

1429
01:01:42,864 --> 01:01:44,072
Thank you very much.

1430
01:01:44,364 --> 01:01:46,279
And, uh... fuck you.

1431
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,446
And I'll catch up with you later.

1432
01:01:48,447 --> 01:01:51,322
Not on your dying day, baby.
