So as you can see, since
I became the CEO,

our user growth, undeniable.

Our retention, so sticky,
it's pornographic.

We're lean, we're exploding,

and we're more mission-focused than ever

in providing the best video chat

the world has ever seen.

Wow. Well, this seems really
promising, gentlemen.

Promising, indeed.

- I think if each...
- "Promising"? (CHUCKLES)

You're a young associate here,
so I'm gonna help you out, okay?

We have a lot of these meetings set up.

We will be fine.

What he means by that is...

But you...

you don't wanna be known around here

as the guy who fucked this up, okay?

So when you hip your
bosses to our numbers

and they get visible hard-ons,
have them move quickly.

Erlich, you're with me.

- It's "hards-on."
- What?

"Hards-on" not "hard-ons."

It's a syntactical error
that I could've remedied

if you had just given
me the space to speak.

Erlich, seeing you Thursday, right?

You better believe it.

Can't wait for it. For, uh...

For Jian-Yang's pitch. His new
idea sounds super exciting.

Yes, well, he is... white hot right now.

And that's why I had him
reach out directly,

and we can't wait to pitch you the idea

that is gonna be pitched to you.

Great. I'll see you then.

- You have no idea what it is, do you?
- Not a fucking clue.

We were just... chanting.

Why? What, the pitches go well?

They went fine, you could say.

You said they went awesome.

All right, thank you, Big Head.

I mean, I did get us a... few offers.

"We" did receive more than a few offers,

as "few" often refers to three.

And today, we're four for four.

(CHUCKLES)

Huh. Which... I mean,
what does that even mean?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

(CHUCKLES) Look, you
don't have to do this.

Really. It was my choice
to leave the company,

and besides, my Internet

Really, it's going very well.

So I want you to succeed, and
I want you guys to be happy.

Sure you do, slugger.

(SIGHS) Stop. Really.

It's cool. I mean that,
totally honestly.

Keep it positive.

I should go Skype my dad, I think,

Um, it is good news, though, right?

'Cause we were all sort of

- RICHARD: Sorry. Sorry.

Dinesh, I think you accidentally
disabled my access keys

for the video chat data repository.

No, actually, I deleted them on purpose.

I purged all our ex-employees.

Gleb, Sanjay, Elisabet, you.

Gleb? What, you're comparing me to Gleb?

When we agreed to split
the company, we said that

you could take the algorithm
for your video chat,

and I could use the data
flowing through the system

to optimize the algorithm for my thing.

- We had a deal.
- We had an agreement,

not technically a deal.

What the fuck, Dinesh?

- Play! Play! Blue, blue!
- Always blue! Always blue!

Have fun, you're having a party.
You got pizza and everything.

Always blue.

So, what? I should've got it in
writing, Dinesh? Is that it?

You wanna lawyer up now? You know,
we're just some guys in a house.

But I don't wanna be just
guys in a house, Richard.

That's the whole point. I want
PiperChat to be a real company.

And after all the bullshit
we went through, no offense,

I finally got some real
financing lined up for us.

I cannot have another
Intersite on my hands.

That was fucking Russ
and his shitty tequila.

You know that, man? You were there.
That wasn't me.

Richard, it happened on your watch.

I'm sorry. I really am.

But the answer is no.

Okay, well, suck a dick.

I'm sorry, what did you say?

- Nice blazer.
- Thank you.

- Where'd you get it?
- Does it matter?

I just want to know where I can get one,

so I can look like a
total fucking douchebag.

Wow, right?

Unbelievable.

Gents, why don't we take this...

party outside?

JARED: Yes, we live in California.

We should take advantage of it.

Oh... Okay.

Gavin, you told me to interrupt

if Jack Barker came to see you.
I'm sorry.

Yes. Send him in.

I thought Barker would crack
after one day in that basement.

The fact that it's taken
him two weeks to fess up

about hijacking my
fucking plane and resign

will make it all the sweeter.

Hiya, Skipper.

Sorry to barge in. I owe you an apology.

Really? Whatever for?

When you stuck me in that basement,

I was like, "Jack, what the
hell did you do wrong?"

And I'm sorry that it took me so long
to get it through my thick skull.

I finally figured out
what this is all about.

Well, I'm glad to hear it.

You are doing exactly what Bobby
Iger does over at Disney.

What?

He makes every manager spend

one day of the year in the Goofy suit.

Because sometimes, you just
gotta be at product level

to be able to see the best path forward.

And once I realized that,
it was like, ka-pow!

It was so obvious. It's the algorithm.

Pied Piper put middle-out
in their vid chat,

and it's amazing now, I know. I'm on
it all the time with my grandkids.

We could use middle-out to revamp
our entire suite of products.

We can make billions, Chief.

I'm whipping up some proposals right now

that are gonna knock that
wig right off your head.

Yeah.

What the fuck is he up to?

Look like a fucking wig to you?

The point is, Jian-Yang,
you don't set pitches.

I handle the scheduling. That's the
symbiosis of our relationship.

- No.
- What do you mean, "no"?

No.

Jian-Yang, PiperChat has
some real heat, okay?

And we can draft off of that,

but it has to be a carefully
choreographed dance.

You can't just wiggle your little tush

and expect every VC in the
Valley to get hards-on.

I am your lead investor, you
will respect me as such.

I do not respect you.

You're not any kind of investor.
You own nothing.

I own 10 percent. You
live in my incubator.

No, you evict me,

- I evict your 10 percent.
- What are you talking about?

"Santa Clara Sheriff's Department.

"Vacate or be forcibly removed."

To be fair, Jian-Yang, I filed
this when I had no expectations

- that the system would work.
- Okay.

Jian-Yang, just tell me... can you
just tell me what the idea is,

so I can Gauge how aggressively
I should pursue it?

Hey, Jared, you were there, right?

When we split the company into two,

- Dinesh and I had a very...
- Stop, stop. Please stop.

- Richard, what're you doing?
- What? What?

What do you mean? I'm
complaining about Dinesh.

He... He sucks.

He's my boss now, Richard.

Well, your boss is being a real prick.

Richard, we have to
bifurcate our relationship.

You and I can no longer discuss business.
All right?

We can... We can talk about anything
else two guys might talk about.

We can talk about sports teams
and their scores, or pussy,

but... but you and I cannot and
will not discuss business.

(SIGHS)

Hey, man, for what it's worth,

I thought it was super
fucked up what Dinesh did.

I know what it's like to be the
one guy not in the company.

You know? So...

If you want my log-in, it's all yours.

Really?

- Yeah, man.
- Thanks.

You know what?

(SIGHS) I shouldn't do this.
Dinesh said no.

And also, these are
"Skyrim" cheat codes.

Oh, shit. Yeah.

DINESH: Hey, my Bloomberg
interview is on!

How did I come up with PiperChat?

That's a very good question.

I guess the tech gods were
just speaking through me.

Somehow, I knew to take the
best parts of a service

as substandard and crappy
as HooliChat and make it...

(INHALES SHARPLY) How do I put this?

Incredible.

Do you think I have too
much product in my hair?

No, I think you should use more.

Wait. Are you saying that because
you think I look ridiculous

and you want me to look
more ridiculous next time?

Which answer will get more
of that stuff in your hair?

Dinesh (ON TV): but let's just say...

Wait, wait, wait. Watch this.

This is where I make Emily Chang laugh.

Quite a turnaround for a company

that wasn't exactly soaring.

Oh, it was soaring, Emily...

right into a clogged toilet.

And not just like a
standard clogged toilet.

- Go fish.

Wait. This could be great. What

kept talking for a while.

Oh.

Geez, I kind of zoned out.

Mr. Chugtai.

It appears that 33 percent of your

It's also apparent that you have

- Who?

That's the Children's Online

This Act establishes strict guidelines

to protect the privacy

You are in gross violation of this act.

You know how kids can't have a

Yes, but our users are chatting

Yeah, we store everything.

Each violation of COPPA...

carries a penalty of $16,000.

So we're fined $16,000?

Oh, no. I hope they take cash.

$16,000 per user.

Not only each user...

What are you talking about?

Dinesh, I specifically reminded you

to port over the terms of
service from the platform.

Right, and I asked if you'd done
it, and... and you said you had.

Okay. I checked the TOS box when
I submitted to the app store,

but then I didn't end
up doing it, all right?

And then when we caught fire,

the last thing I wanted to do

was bog our users down with
legal bullshit, you know?

Well, first of all, everyone

Alas, I could not see this

I'll check the logs and see
who was in his office.

No, because...

no one was there.

I'm confused. Was he on the phone?

Yes. Very perceptive.

Easy. I'll just pull
up his phone records.

No.

Not the phone phone.

So what was he doing?
Was he video chatting?

That's what it was, chela.

Even better. I'll pull up the chat data.

You can do that?

Well, as long as he was on HooliChat,

but the bastard kept grinding in my
face how much he loved PiperChat.

It's due diligence. Gavin

When I worked for him, he
tried to microchip me.

Before he finalized any acquisition,

his legal team would
uncover our malfeasance.

They'd sniff out the

And they'd probably turn you
in, and you do not want that.

I mean, there's also the moral quandary.

could Dinesh really sell the

a Sizzler buffet for

is a one percent chance of success
