There have been a lot of rumors about Leo going around the internet.

That he's dying and he's giving away all of his money.

What we know so far

is there have been posts in several countries

mentioning a Richter employee that goes by the name of Isaac.

Two million tweets and it all starts with this.

We can't do this to him.

I never meant for this to happen.

Mr. Billionaire,

if you help me

you help all of us.

It's from a local number.

Ignore it.

Richter Roth has lots of local investments

and the last three all wanted comments on Isaac.

-Hi. -Hi.

What's up?

Where do you want to shoot it?

In the dressing room, I think.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello. What's up?

Fine.

Where is the lipstick?

Everything OK here?

Yeah, it's OK.

So tell me, how much time do I have to film this?

My cousin will be back in half an hour.

OK so, I ask you some questions about your situation and why do you want the money

and then I do it quickly and then we go, OK?

OK.

I don't want them to find us here shooting that.

So, I think it's already recording.

Yes, but never mind, it can go like this. I don't have time to check it now.

So Katri, you're a dancer here at your cousin's night club.

- Yes. - What do you do?

I dance for men every night to pay my debt to my cousin,

and other things that I don't want to speak about.

Why not?

I.....I don't want to go into details.

My cousin made me come here.

He... he promised me a lot of things and... and he was lying.

I want leave from here, I want to go back to Estonia

and I want to tell girls like me not to believe guys like my cousin.

And what would you do with the money you could get from this competition?

I want to create a project to inform girls about

these things that happen like they have nothing and they want to go somewhere

they will be tempted to go to France or to another country

and they think their lives will change

but it's not going to change, it will just get worse.

But do you think that your cousin might change his mind

if you would just tell him you want to leave?

No no, he cannot know about this.

I don't want him to close me in that room again

like he did when I was going away last time.

OK.

I think we should stop here because I don't want them to find you filming here.

Yes, of course.

I'll stop it.

OK.

So... mmm.

I started out in the mail room. - OK.

And then they brought in this...

this mail-sorting robot.

So then I got put on electric typewriters and

adding machines, I did that for a while.

And now I'm in charge of all of the fax machines of this company.

OK, well, I to need to ask you about your social media use.

Do you have a Twitter account?

No, no no.

No, I don't use those things.

- Oh. - No.

So you don't use any social media?

We have quite a few potlucks.

OK.

As you can see, our quality education program

puts text books in the hands of clients

with a tax rate for the printers which offsets the corporate taxes

returning in net profit in the initial investment

which can be then be rolled around

for a bigger slice of the pie in the following years.

It's a win-win situation for everyone involved.

I can get copies of this paperwork, yes?

Of course.

As you can see by projections, illiteracy is on the rise.

Now, our form envisions a program that is designed to stymie that

and use the bank to initialize green-space programs.

Then we will use a cost cost benefit ratio which--

What we're saying, sir, is that if you invest in this project

you'll give school children a way to learn

and become better and productive members of society.

They will earn money and purchase goods such as those you sell.

We can make a profit out of this deal and still give schools a break.

Which will enable us to help communities and ourselves.

Having this is just good business for all of us, sir

I mean, we are going to sell text books at a reasonable and cost-effective price.

That and the shipping end will more than make up the numbers.

Thank you, both of you.

I'll think over this proposal seriously.

Let my legal and accounts have a look.

We'll run projections from our end and we'll get back to you shortly.

Thank you very much for your time, sir.

Thank you.

We hope to hear back from you soon, sir.

Sure.

I think that went well. Education funding for everyone.

Once we get the funding we-

-You totally blocked me in that meeting, Sid!

What?

You made me look like a fool.

I was on a roll,

and you stepped in and made me look like someone around running numbers.

That's not what I did, Rahul.

He was not paying attention and I got us back on track!

Oh, the great and mighty Sid Gupta swoops in to save the day, huh?

I had enough of his attention, Sid.

He was only feigning disinterest.

Your little song made us look like we were weak and disorganized.

I'm sorry Rahul, I don't think he got that impression.

Well, he did!

But I was just trying to get him to see my vision,

to see what I'm trying to accomplish.

You made his head swim with your visions, Sid.

I know why you wanted to see me.

And why is that?

I mean it's obvious with everything that's been going on around here.

And my name is Isaac. It was just a question of time.

But I never expected it to get this big, I swear!

Well, your honesty is going to go a long way in deciding how we're going to proceed.

Why don't you just tell me how it all started?

About a year ago, I started writing a novel.

A novel?

Corporate-intrigue-slash-crime-thriller,

about a major corporation who hires this cybercrime hit men

to retaliate against people who post negative comments about them online.

So you cooked up these rumors as a research for your novel?

What? No, I don't do research, I write what I know.

Listen, what it really comes down to is that I hate reading on a computer screen.

It's such artifice, you know?

So whenever I finish writing I have to print it up

and then go over it with a red pencil.

A red pencil?

Right. So remember when they replaced all the printers 6 months ago?

I'm not aware.

Well, when I found out they were getting rid of them,

I asked Spence if I could have one.

And he put a post it note that read "For Isaac" on one of them.

When I picked up the printer I threw the note in the trash

but I guess someone must've seen it

because that's why you're calling in all the Isaacs now, right?

Hold on, you think this is about a printer?

Oh, come on! We both know this isn't about a printer?

Oh, then I'm not following.

The toner.

When I found out the old printers and the new printers use the same toner,

I didn't think it would be a big deal to take one, but

then it became a habit.

And then there was that memo about how petty office appliance is a crime too

And I just...I panicked.

But then I thought "What would Nickie Dwayne do?"

Who's Nickie Dwayne?

He's the badass mastermind who's spreading disinformation from my novel.

And what Nickie Dwayne would do is obvious.

He'd create a distraction.

So you spread the rumors about Richter

to cover up that you were stealing office supplies?

Whoa, whoa ... What?

The rumors about him giving away his money? You think that I... seriously?

Seriously?

Ohh, his name was Isaac, wasn't it?

Wait, so, this isn't about the toner?

Sit.

It's OK, I can stand.

Have you become stupid?

Since when you slap clients with the hands?

Ross is one of my best clients, you fool!

But I was just trying to stop him.

Why? Are you now a delicate little princess?

I may be what you made me,

but I am not a hole that anyone can stick his fingers into.

He grabbed me by my waist, he put his hands underneath my skirt,

and if I hadn't stopped him he will still have his finger up my ass.

No money, no touching that's your rules, right?

OK, I won't fine you this time.

The rules.

Not much night left, Garu will take you home and you will come back tomorrow.

Smiling and happy.

Go!

Rahul, I'm sorry about how I crashed in the meeting.

I didn't mean to.

But Vinood was...

Have you been out drinking?

I had 2 drinks,

and time to think.

About what?

Are we in this thing together, Sid?

The business....of course we are in it together, Rahul.

I want this company to succeed as much if not more than you.

Do you need to tell me anything, Sid?

I don't know what you mean.

Look, Sid,

I've seen it.

So the whole world knows about this billionaire investor

that you found, but you don't wanna tell me about it?

Who do you think I am? A laughing stock?

Rahul, none of it is true.

Neha just made a mistake.

- She was- - Bullshit!

This is your girlfriend inferring a reclusive billionaire

engaging talks with you about an education fund,

and your silence just confirms it to the world!

Rahul...

You....you hide it from me?

Fuck!

Rahul, Neha got it all wrong.

She jumped when she should've looked

and now we are trying to let the furor die down.

There is no investor, I swear to you.

Tell me about Isaac.

Who told you that name?

So it's true, then.

It's all over the internet, I've checked.

Now tell me who he is and who he is to you.

Why are you so bothered about Isaac?

In fact, why do you even care about rumors when we don't have a solid offer?

What are you digging so hard for?

I don't want to be lied to, Sid.

I don't want to be lied to and kept in the dark.

Look, Rahul, I'm not going to hide anything from you.

I can't talk about this because I promised Isaac I wouldn't.

But we have been vouchsafed no funds.

I absolutely swear it.

As your partner, and more importantly, as your friend.

OK.

Rahul.

Yes, Sid?

Are we good?

I think we are, tomorrow we might be better.

Hi, this is Rahul Dev for Ms. Davies.

Thank you so much, Ms. Davies. Your offer was so very generous

and I'd like to thank you for this opportunity.

Did you meet with him or not?

- Yes, yes, I did - and?

Well, you must understand, Sid is quite stubborn

and he wouldn't say anything, but

but I did get him to admit that he does know Isaac.

Is that all? Are you kidding me?

We already found that out from his girlfriend,

we need you to find out who the hell this Isaac is.

Did you get any clue as to what he's offering your friend

or how he's keeping them quiet?

I'm afraid not, but...

Well, I have another idea of how to get him.

You do understand how important this is, don't you?

Yes, of course, absolutely.

Sid is helping a criminal, OK? Do you get that?

This Isaac is an impostor who's spreading lies

and taking advantage of thousands of people.

And if you can't help us stop him,

then we're not going to be able to fund your little company.

Do you understand?

You have to give me some more time, a few more days, please.

You have 24 hours.

Let's get to it.

This competition, or whatever it is you want to call it,

It's pretty immoral really, when you think about it.

Making the poor and the needy your plaything

for some game with arbitrary rules.

And that just means millions of people are going to be rejected and disappointed.

No one person or group deserves this money over the rest.

I have no legitimate reason for the money.

I get by.

Doesn't mean I don't want it though.
