00:28:37,843 --> 00:28:38,875
There must be
some sort of mix up.

704
00:28:38,877 --> 00:28:40,243
Your name didn't make it
into the system.

705
00:28:40,245 --> 00:28:41,444
- Okay.
- Hey, June.

706
00:28:41,446 --> 00:28:42,445
Um...

707
00:28:42,447 --> 00:28:44,246
Lilly, Jane, Patricia...
you're all set.

708
00:28:44,248 --> 00:28:47,083
[woman] Thanks, Christine.
I gotta change.

709
00:28:47,085 --> 00:28:48,918
Um, can you just, like,
squeeze me in?

710
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,353
Sorry. It's policy.

711
00:28:51,355 --> 00:28:52,621
Everything okay, June?

712
00:28:52,623 --> 00:28:55,457
Yeah, everything's fine.
I... oh, God.

713
00:28:55,459 --> 00:28:59,895
[chuckles] A doctor.
I totally forgot. I'm late.

714
00:28:59,897 --> 00:29:02,197
[sighs heavily]

715
00:29:02,199 --> 00:29:03,297
They're on their way.

716
00:29:03,299 --> 00:29:04,332
Good.
[door closes]

717
00:29:04,334 --> 00:29:06,101
Are you wearing cologne?

718
00:29:06,103 --> 00:29:08,669
- Yeah.
- Jesus Christ.

719
00:29:08,671 --> 00:29:10,571
So... ground rules.

720
00:29:10,573 --> 00:29:13,274
I'll do
all of the talking.

721
00:29:13,276 --> 00:29:16,111
"We have someone else that made
the same pharmaceutical trade."

722
00:29:16,113 --> 00:29:18,178
First one in
gets a lollipop.

723
00:29:18,180 --> 00:29:20,280
But to be clear,
we don't really have anyone?

724
00:29:20,282 --> 00:29:22,482
To be clear,
I am making a play.

725
00:29:22,484 --> 00:29:25,185
That's what I like to call
"the prisoner's dilemma."

726
00:29:25,187 --> 00:29:28,088
No, you don't like to call it
that. That's what it's called.

727
00:29:28,090 --> 00:29:30,657
Started as a thought experiment,
game theory in the '50s.

728
00:29:30,659 --> 00:29:32,760
Does no one ever check you
on this bullshit?

729
00:29:32,762 --> 00:29:34,994
I'm just saying, I would've
made the same play.

730
00:29:34,996 --> 00:29:37,964
[door opens]
[woman] Mr. Decker, sir?

731
00:29:39,133 --> 00:29:40,133
[clears throat]

732
00:29:40,135 --> 00:29:42,268
[♪ tense music]

733
00:29:42,270 --> 00:29:44,436
I think everyone knows
why we're here.

734
00:29:44,438 --> 00:29:46,438
We're ready to listen.

735
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,340
Well...

736
00:29:48,342 --> 00:29:51,443
we have you on
the Pepsum trade.

737
00:29:51,445 --> 00:29:52,644
You know that.

738
00:29:52,646 --> 00:29:56,181
So why don't you tell us
about how Bobby Axelrod

739
00:29:56,183 --> 00:30:00,318
funneled you and other
satellites insider information?

740
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,321
You're saying words
I don't understand.

741
00:30:03,323 --> 00:30:04,756
- Never gonna happen.
- What he's saying is,

742
00:30:04,758 --> 00:30:08,160
at this time, he does not
wish to cooperate.

743
00:30:08,162 --> 00:30:11,695
That's because he doesn't know
what we have up our sleeve.

744
00:30:11,697 --> 00:30:12,897
Sleeves.

745
00:30:16,168 --> 00:30:19,270
Mr. Decker, approximately
two and a half hours ago,

746
00:30:19,272 --> 00:30:21,605
we had someone sitting
where you are now...

747
00:30:21,607 --> 00:30:24,108
a young man from a fund that
I'm not at liberty to name,

748
00:30:24,110 --> 00:30:27,543
and he was downright chatty.
[exhales]

749
00:30:27,545 --> 00:30:28,878
So it looks
like the race is on

750
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,614
to see who's got
the stronger information

751
00:30:31,616 --> 00:30:33,516
and who I'm gonna let
take the credit

752
00:30:33,518 --> 00:30:34,951
for flipping
on Bobby Axelrod.

753
00:30:34,953 --> 00:30:38,521
And the winner
gets to stay out of MCC.

754
00:30:38,523 --> 00:30:41,324
Yes, that's correct.

755
00:30:41,326 --> 00:30:42,792
Cooperate and go home.

756
00:30:42,794 --> 00:30:44,226
Uh, but this comes to trial,

757
00:30:44,228 --> 00:30:46,628
and you're talking
to your kids through glass.

758
00:30:46,630 --> 00:30:48,663
We'll see how that
all works out.

759
00:30:48,665 --> 00:30:50,199
Yes, we will.

760
00:30:50,201 --> 00:30:51,867
We're done here.

761
00:30:51,869 --> 00:30:55,237
Oh, you are far from done.

762
00:30:55,239 --> 00:30:56,571
Just know that.

763
00:31:01,944 --> 00:31:03,911
[door opens]

764
00:31:05,113 --> 00:31:07,715
[door closes]
[sighs]

765
00:31:09,284 --> 00:31:11,752
- Fuck.
- I don't see him caving.

766
00:31:11,754 --> 00:31:13,821
Mm, I think he will.

767
00:31:13,823 --> 00:31:14,956
[laughs]

768
00:31:14,958 --> 00:31:17,924
You know, my fucking eyes
are watering here.

769
00:31:17,926 --> 00:31:19,993
How many pints of that
shitty toilet water

770
00:31:19,995 --> 00:31:22,329
do you splash on yourself
every morning, Spyros?

771
00:31:22,331 --> 00:31:24,931
You think maybe it's gonna
help you get some tail?

772
00:31:24,933 --> 00:31:28,001
Here's a tip... it's not.

773
00:31:28,003 --> 00:31:31,238
[door opens]

774
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:32,906
[door closes]

775
00:31:32,908 --> 00:31:35,474
It is a lot
in a confined area.

776
00:31:37,310 --> 00:31:41,146
- I cut back a little.
- Yeah, maybe cut way back.

777
00:31:44,985 --> 00:31:48,153
[horn honks in distance,
vehicles passing]

778
00:31:48,155 --> 00:31:51,189
[sports game playing on TV]

779
00:31:51,191 --> 00:31:54,192
- [smacks lips] So?
- It's a good slice of pizza.

780
00:31:54,194 --> 00:31:56,961
- Bruno.
- What is it, Bobby?

781
00:31:56,963 --> 00:31:59,063
Tell Mr. Purkheiser
why I love your sauce.

782
00:31:59,065 --> 00:32:00,865
Uh, I use the San Marzanos.

783
00:32:00,867 --> 00:32:02,200
- Tomatoes.
- Yeah, yeah, tomatoes.

784
00:32:02,202 --> 00:32:03,968
You make 'em without 'em,
it wouldn't taste right.

785
00:32:03,970 --> 00:32:05,069
Right. More expensive?

786
00:32:05,071 --> 00:32:06,304
Oh, yeah, yeah.

787
00:32:06,306 --> 00:32:08,638
But like I say,
it wouldn't taste right.

788
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:09,839
Wouldn't be verace.

789
00:32:09,841 --> 00:32:11,008
Verace?

790
00:32:11,010 --> 00:32:13,810
The true way you make
a pizza Napoletana.

791
00:32:13,812 --> 00:32:15,913
This place is the pizza
of my youth.

792
00:32:15,915 --> 00:32:18,782
He's been making it just
like this since I was a kid.

793
00:32:18,784 --> 00:32:21,118
You know...
[clears throat]

794
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,653
Normally, somebody wants
to waltz with me,

795
00:32:23,655 --> 00:32:26,055
I find myself sawing
a 20-ounce rib eye

796
00:32:26,057 --> 00:32:30,059
on the East Side
with a $500 Cabernet.

797
00:32:30,061 --> 00:32:31,994
I am different
from the other children.

798
00:32:31,996 --> 00:32:35,932
Mm, well, that is clear now,
Mr. Axelrod.

799
00:32:35,934 --> 00:32:38,034
[clears throat]
When I was 11 years old

800
00:32:38,036 --> 00:32:40,903
till I was 14,
I was a paperboy.

801
00:32:40,905 --> 00:32:43,939
I delivered the Journal News
every day after school.

802
00:32:43,941 --> 00:32:45,840
And when I finished
my route,

803
00:32:45,842 --> 00:32:47,943
I'd pick up
a YumTime Scrumpet.

804
00:32:47,945 --> 00:32:50,412
It was my reward.

805
00:32:50,414 --> 00:32:53,448
I did this every weekday
for three years.

806
00:32:53,450 --> 00:32:56,651
And a while back,
I brought my two boys here.

807
00:32:56,653 --> 00:33:00,287
And I showed them my route,
we stopped for a Scrumpet,

808
00:33:00,289 --> 00:33:02,456
and they were colorless,

809
00:33:02,458 --> 00:33:05,426
over-sweet, petrified.

810
00:33:05,428 --> 00:33:08,528
Needless to say,
my two boys were underwhelmed.

811
00:33:08,530 --> 00:33:10,931
So was I.

812
00:33:10,933 --> 00:33:12,833
Didn't taste as good.

813
00:33:12,835 --> 00:33:14,335
So I did some research,

814
00:33:14,337 --> 00:33:17,103
and I learned that
the recipe had changed.

815
00:33:17,105 --> 00:33:19,839
Bruno!

816
00:33:19,841 --> 00:33:21,540
What's the name
of those tomatoes again?

817
00:33:21,542 --> 00:33:25,211
Uh, the San Marzanos.

818
00:33:25,213 --> 00:33:27,613
Bruno never let me down.

819
00:33:27,615 --> 00:33:29,148
YumTime let me down.

820
00:33:29,150 --> 00:33:31,550
Public company now.

821
00:33:31,552 --> 00:33:33,718
Gotta boost profits
for the shareholders.

822
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,421
Synthetic ingredients
are cheaper, margins are better.

823
00:33:36,423 --> 00:33:38,723
Hutch III is playing
a quarterly game.

824
00:33:38,725 --> 00:33:39,924
It's just
a different world.

825
00:33:39,926 --> 00:33:42,627
Well, Hutch III is flying

826
00:33:42,629 --> 00:33:46,398
around that different world
in a G6.

827
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,501
I'm guessing Hutches I and II
flew coach.

828
00:33:49,503 --> 00:33:51,469
It's classic,
time immemorial...

829
00:33:51,471 --> 00:33:53,670
Hutch I starts it,
Hutch II grows it,

830
00:33:53,672 --> 00:33:54,838
Hutch III blows it.

831
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,708
Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves
in three generations.

832
00:33:57,710 --> 00:34:01,412
Come on, Purk.
You have to see that.

833
00:34:02,747 --> 00:34:05,049
If you don't throw in with me
or someone like me,

834
00:34:05,051 --> 00:34:06,950
YumTime goes the same way
as Ebinger's.

835
00:34:06,952 --> 00:34:10,253
What's Ebinger's?

836
00:34:10,255 --> 00:34:13,589
That's exactly what
you wanted me to ask, isn't it?

837
00:34:15,559 --> 00:34:17,827
[indistinct conversations]

838
00:34:17,829 --> 00:34:19,629
- Hi, Mark.
- Ms. Raichlein.

839
00:34:19,631 --> 00:34:22,565
I have a 10:20 tee time, but we
wanna hit the range first.

840
00:34:22,567 --> 00:34:25,234
And I requested Stewart
on my bag.

841
00:34:25,236 --> 00:34:27,069
Yeah, um, Mr. Kellum from
the membership committee

842
00:34:27,071 --> 00:34:28,270
wanted to speak with you.

843
00:34:28,272 --> 00:34:32,408
Oh, okay. Um... [huffs]
is he in his office?

844
00:34:32,410 --> 00:34:33,708
No, he stepped out.

845
00:34:33,710 --> 00:34:36,412
Well, then, I'll pop back in
after the round.

846
00:34:36,414 --> 00:34:38,280
I had to give away
your tee time.

847
00:34:38,282 --> 00:34:41,315
Uh, what are you talking about?

848
00:34:41,317 --> 00:34:42,583
I don't really know.

849
00:34:42,585 --> 00:34:44,618
Something about your account
being in arrears.

850
00:34:44,620 --> 00:34:46,687
[laughs]

851
00:34:46,689 --> 00:34:50,358
That is not true.
My bookkeeper... [scoffs]

852
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,692
There has been a mistake.

853
00:34:51,694 --> 00:34:54,529
Well, you can't play golf
till it's been resolved.

854
00:34:54,531 --> 00:34:57,131
[sighs]

855
00:35:01,069 --> 00:35:03,403
[pounds on table]
Meeting to order.

856
00:35:03,405 --> 00:35:06,139
Let the record reflect
that two guests are present...

857
00:35:06,141 --> 00:35:08,241
Mr. Robert Axelrod,
shareholder,

858
00:35:08,243 --> 00:35:10,944
and Mr. Michael Wagner.
Welcome, gentlemen.

859
00:35:10,946 --> 00:35:14,147
Now I think we're all
familiar with Mr. Axelrod,

860
00:35:14,149 --> 00:35:17,283
by reputation and through
the letter that was circulated.

861
00:35:17,285 --> 00:35:19,218
And I feel that
this might be a good time

862
00:35:19,220 --> 00:35:21,954
to hear directly from him.
Mr. Axelrod?

863
00:35:21,956 --> 00:35:24,423
Thank you.

864
00:35:24,425 --> 00:35:26,959
Folks, my proposal is simple.

865
00:35:26,961 --> 00:35:28,561
Return to the original recipes

866
00:35:28,563 --> 00:35:30,729
and restore the YumTime brand
to its former glory.

867
00:35:30,731 --> 00:35:33,598
And then what?

868
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,800
After a good quarter or two,
you spin it off?

869
00:35:37,570 --> 00:35:39,870
Do you see
what's happening here?

870
00:35:39,872 --> 00:35:42,974
This... [sighs] carpetbagger,
he comes in here,

871
00:35:42,976 --> 00:35:44,809
he shakes things up,

872
00:35:44,811 --> 00:35:46,544
he sells the company off
in pieces,

873
00:35:46,546 --> 00:35:48,980
and then he dumps his shares
the minute it ticks up.

874
00:35:48,982 --> 00:35:51,582
He's a raider,

that was not a legal trade.

they didn't know,

that they're innocent.

- Yeah.

Right and wrong.
That's a funny line, isn't it?

kind of wrong?
