FI NCH : You are being watched.

The government has a secret system.

A machine that spies on you every hour of every day.

I designed the machine to detect acts of terror, but it sees everything.

Violent crimes involving ordinary people.

The government considers these people irrelevant.

We don 't.

Hunted by the authorities, we work in secret.

You will never find us.

But victim or perpetrator, if your number's up, we 'll find you.

MAN : Yo, yo, pick right. Pick right.

BIG FOOT: Your mama just called , told me to take you to school .

Yeah? Did you get your popcorn ready? Because I'm about to put on a show.

-Oh , yes. BIG FOOT: Hell , no.

Might have blocked that if you hadn't tripped on your skirt.

BIG FOOT: You lucky you're funny.

Our Iatest number dropped out of college?

Logan Pierce left Caltech affer his sophomore year, yes.

He had other aspirations.

BIG FOOT: No Iayups, No Iayups. Get that weak stuff out of here.

-Ooh . PI ERCE: Oh ! U nh !

-No way, son , that was a foul . -Ain't no fouls out here.

Guessing it wasn't to become a professional athlete.

It's been real . I gotta jet though .

-I got a date with your girl . BIG FOOT: Yeah , whatever.

Make it rain !

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Later, bitches.

REESE: Who the hell is this guy?

Pierce is not just a college dropout.

He's a self-made billionaire with a genius IQ.

Started a social networking site called friendczar.com ...

...with his best friend from college.

Thought you invented social networking , Finch .

Pierce perfected it.

H is site has just shy of a billion users.

Pierce is chief engineer and front man for friendczar.com.

H is Iongtime business partner...

...Justin Ogilvy, is the money and marketing guru .

REESE: They started the company together? FI NCH : That's right.

It would certainly not be in Ogilvy's best interest...

...to have Pierce turn up dead now.

They're taking Friendczar public in 72 hours.

We need ears on Pierce. I couldn't clone his phone.

It wouldn't matter if you could .

Pierce changes phones twice a day to avoid corporate espionage.

Looks Iike he's attending a charity auction tonight.

Promised the press a sound bite.

-And your plan is? -CIassic black.

Satin-notched Iapel . Bespoke, of course.

And I assume you know how to tie one of these?

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

FUSCO: Following up on that anonymous tip?

-Yeah . -You really think a cop killed Davidson?

I think a Iot of cops have reason to want an IAB detective dead .

Then I realized Davidson wasn't the only cop who went missing Iast year.

Detective Stills. Didn't you two work together in the 51 st?

-A Iong time ago. -Two cops go missing ...

...their bodies never found . Something's not right.

[CELL PHON E RI NG I NG]

-Carter. -Detective.

I'm e-mailing you the details of several Iawsuits involving Logan Pierce.

PIaintiffs with a history of violence, prior convictions.

U h , what exactly did you mean by several Iawsuits?

Two hundred , but I've already prioritized them. There's no need to thank me.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

[SPEAKS I N DUTCH]

[JAZZ PLAYI NG OVER SPEAKERS]

I'm , uh , feeling a little out of place.

FI NCH [OVER EARPI ECE] : Don't worry. l'll talk you through...

...any difficult encounters that may arise.

[G U ESTS CHATTERI NG]

REESE: Finch , I've got eyes on Pierce and his partner, Justin Ogilvy.

Best friends for over a decade. They've known each other since Caltech .

REESE: Who's the third guy in Pierce's circle?

That would probably be Jeremy Campbell , Pierce's Iawyer.

Friendczar is his firm 's only client.

So I wake up, I'm bruised , I'm scratched .

I call Justin from her dorm room .

No "hello," no "good morning ," just:

"Justin , I think I got beat up by a girl in bed ...

-I did . -. . .and I think I kind of enjoyed it."

I loved it.

Remember that you're John Wiley, hedge fund manager.

-What about John Rooney, asset manager? -He's a single-digit millionaire.

John Wiley is valued at over 1 00 million .

Exactly how much money do you have?

Oh-oh .

Pierce, Justin .

-You're both Iooking rich . -Ben . You're looking mature.

-Hey. CYNTH IA: Ahem, ahem .

I feel a cold coming on .

Wait, isn't your little charity thing working on a cure for that?

You're thinking of cancer.

FI NCH : Ben and Cynthia Kamin , whose social networking site connectroid .com...

...was devalued by half when Friendczar debuted .

Kamin's pretending to make nice.

-Finch , I think Pierce just made me. -Just mention the carried interest Ioophole.

You'Il be fine.

Ahem. Haven't seen you at one of these things before. What's your story?

John Wiley, hedge fund manager.

How's that, uh , carried interest Ioophole treating you?

I'm sorry. I thought you were interesting .

My mistake.

[AUCTION EER BANGS GAVEL]

AUCTION EER: Ladies and gentlemen , take your seats for the auction portion of tonight's event.

I didn't make a good first impression .

I didn't realize we were dealing with a one percenter...

...who finds other one percenters tedious.

AUCTION EER: We'Il start the bidding tonight with our most coveted item ...

...a collection of Ietters handwritten by AIbert Einstein .

We'll start the bidding for the Ietters at $ 1 million .

Who will start at $ 1 million for our opening bid?

One million dollars right here, Iooking for 1 .5.

Looking for 1 .5, 1 .5 in the back, Iooking for 2.

One-five looking for $2 million . I got 1 .5.

-Need $2 million for these. -Kamin's bidding against Pierce.

AUCTION EER: Two million dollars, anyone? Two million dollars.

Looking for 2.5. Two million , five hundred thousand dollars.

-Looking for 3. We got 2 .5-- PI ERCE: Ahem.

You know, I think these letters are worth much more than a piddly 3 mil .

We can do better. Am I right, Kamin?

-Five million . AUCTION EER: We've got $5 million ...

...ladies and gentlemen.

That's too rich for Kamin's blood . Anybody else?

H m?

I'm so sorry, Finch , but this guy's too used to getting his own way.

Ten million .

AUCTION EER: Ten million dollars, Iadies and gentlemen , going once.

Reese, this is not petty cash .

AUCTION EER: We've got 1 0 million going twice.

Sold right there to the gentleman for $ 1 0 million .

[G U ESTS CLAPPI NG]

[CHATTERI NG]

I'm sorry. Maybe next time.

No apology necessary. I was just driving up the price for charity.

[AUCTION EER CLEARS TH ROAT TH EN CELL PHON E RI NGS]

-Well . . . . -Excuse me.

Finch , Pierce just got a text. He's on the move.

CYNTH IA: Get your ass in here. PI ERCE: Yes, ma'am.

[CYNTH IA LAUGH I NG]

I thought you had a cold?

[CYNTH IA LAUGH I NG]

Pierce is not just encroaching on Kamin's business, he's encroaching on his wife.

-Oh , dear. REPORTER 1 : Where is Mr. Pierce?

I know Pierce and I were supposed to give you a sound bite for the 11 :00 news...

... but he's indisposed at the moment.

One tip I can give you is that the Friendczar I PO will break records and make history.

-Thanks. REPORTER 2: Is Pierce avoiding us?

The board knows Pierce only Iistens to you .

Get him to pull himself together. Get this company some good press.

FI NCH : That's Sinclair Melbourne, VC and chairman of the Friendczar board .

It was a one-time slip-up, Sinclair. It won't happen again .

AUCTION EER: Sir, your Ietters.

No, you can keep them.

Finch , Pierce just Ieft the auction , but his car's not here. Pierce is gone.

What? He has no mode of transport.

[WH I RRI NG]

Is that a helicopter?

It's against the Iaw to take off from a rooftop in Manhattan .

How do we keep up with a guy who breaks all the rules?

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

I NGRAM : Been trying to get ahold of you .

Turned off my phone. I'm working on a new algorithm.

Harold .

Something happened this morning .

MAN [ON TV]: Current estimates for casualties from both attacks are very grave.

It is estimated that about 200 first responders...

Was it a plane?

Two planes.

MAN [ON TV]: Countless bodies have yet to be recovered, as they are buried under...

We started I FT to change the world .

Our suits got nicer, our Scotch more expensive.

We changed , but the world stayed the same.

U ntil today.

If we don't change the world , someone else will .

So, what are we gonna do to stop the guys who did this?

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

Finch , Iooks Iike our billionaire might be having a breakdown .

FI NCH [OVER EARPI ECE] : Pierce appears to be more erratic than your typical billionaire.

WOMAN : N ice Iegs. FI NCH : Closest thing to a routine...

...is a weekly visit to a dry cleaner.

-Where are you? FI NCH : l'm at work.

[WH ISTLI NG]

H m . Where's Pauly?

He got a full scholarship to the Brooklyn Law Center.

So I guess you will be needing my ticket then .

-Did you use the, uh--? -CO2 process. Yes, of course, Mr. Pierce.

-I guess you ran out of clean suits. -Yeah .

I'm actually more of a jeans and T-shirt kind of guy.

I only have one suit. A good suit is Iike the perfect woman .

Once you find the right one...

... nothing else will do.

How very eccentric of you .

Your card .

Have a nice day.

FI NCH [OVER EARPI ECE] : Mr. Reese, l switched Pierce 's titanium card...

...for one with a listening device.

I hacked his online calendar.

He'Il be heading back to the office for a round of Friendczar depositions.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

Friendczar destroyed my business.

[PI ERCE SNORI NG]

They ruined my reputation .

No one returns my calls.

And l can forget raising any venture capital funds.

Friendczar is aggressive about purchasing and absorbing small start-ups.

And if a small CEO tries to go toe-to-toe with them...

... he gets sued for patent infringement, no matter how bogus the suit.

[PI ERCE SNORI NG]

Could you tell me why Pierce can't Iook the man he's suing in the eye?

Because he's asleep.

PI ERCE: Huh?

You didn't violate our patents. We screwed up.

We'll help you raise the venture capital funds you lost.

-U h , thank you . PI ERCE: Who's next?

OG I L: Emily Morton's Iawyers are here. -Mm , great.

According to Detective Carter, Ms. Morton sold Friendczar...

... her matchmaking site, alchementary.com.

Promised they'd Iaunch her site, instead they made sure it never saw the Iight of day.

I see Iawyers, but no client.

Our client is unable to appear due to extenuating circumstances.

A frivolous Iawsuit doesn't qualify as extenuating circumstances.

-But intimidation does. -We have a board meeting at 1 .

The board can meet me on Coney Island .

U h , they have got these bacon-wrapped hot dogs...

...crispy on the outside, juicy on the in .

Basic kosher nightmare, but you know what they say, what happens on Coney Island ...

I guess nothing good really happens on Coney Island . Except for these dogs.

What a Iunatic.

If we don't get ahold of M iss Morton , we have to drop the Iawsuit.

Emily is missing , and her lawyer implied she's being intimidated .

FI NCH : Right before her suit goes to trial .

The timing is a Iittle too perfect.

Maybe Pierce and his partner have something to do with her disappearance.

-Pierce? PI ERCE: Hm?

Two days before your I PO, and you're streaking across Tribeca?

Tell me, Sinclair, you buy all your shirts pre-stuffed , or do you fill them out?

Come here.

Get your partner back in the game, or I'm calling an emergency meeting .

When you build a viable web server, you're free to run the company.

I n fact, Iet's put it before the board . You or me?

That's what I thought. Lunchtime, bitches.

Finch , even his own company's having trouble curbing Pierce's behavior.

FI NCH [OVER EARPI ECE] : l'm glad to hear we 're not alone.

[ENG I N E REVVI NG LOU DLY]

REESE: Pierce is headed to Coney Island . I'm on it.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

[TI RES SCREECH I NG]

Something's not right. Normally, Pierce drives fast...

... but he drives with precision .

PI ERCE: Uh , this is Logan Pierce. I have a slight problem with my car. I can't slow down .

FI NCH : Pierce 's car won 't decelerate. Most modern vehicles can be hacked into.

If you can get within 10 meters, l'll be able to infiltrate the Bluetooth...

...then access the engine control unit.

PI ERCE: Whoa!

REESE: He blew a light. I lost him .

No matter. I'm in .

Someone has hacked into the car's ECU ...

... installed malware, Iocked the car in third gear at 50 miles an hour.

PI ERCE: Hello? Hello? Is anyone there? My accelerator's stuck.

I can't downshift.

Communications and emergency services.

You can't decelerate. I'Il do my best to remedy your problem .

PI ERCE: Remedy faster, Sherlock. I'm kind of hosed right now.

FI NCH : Reese, you have eyes on Pierce ? REESE: Yes, he's about 1 0 seconds out...

...from a catastrophic accident.

You don 't stop him, Finch, there 's a cargo truck that will.

[HORN HON KS]

Finch , you saved him .

PI ERCE: Take me to the city.

We can't protect someone we can't keep up with .

-What do you have in mind? -A different tactic.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

WOMAN [OVER I NTERCOM] : There 's a John Wiley to see you.

Tell him I'm a busy man . If he objects, have security show him out.

[S IGHS]

[G RU NTI NG AN D YELLI NG]

I'Il make this quick.

I have it on good authority that your life's in danger.

Normally I'd just follow you around , help behind the scenes...

... but you've got too much money and too many resources.

I can protect you , but only if you let me stick with you for the next 48 hours.

Sounds Iike fun .

See, I knew you were interesting .

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

The freight train just left for Des Moines. The machine will be at the facility in 1 0 days.

[S IGHS]

I've been thinking about you wanting to make a difference, help people.

We can do that now, we could invest in clean water initiatives, sustainable farming .

We built the single most powerful technology known to man .

A machine that knows when someone needs help.

And you just gave it away.

We had our chance, Harold .

Well , we built it, and it saves Iives.

-Not enough Iives. -We've been over this, Nathan .

-The machine is gone. -What if we could still access it?

We decided we weren't going to play God . We weren't going to build a back door.

We decided a Iot of things the Iast seven years.

And that one...

... I'm the Ieast proud of.

We did what we set out to do.

Now, either we move on to the next thing together, or we don't.

You decide.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

Alchementary uses an advanced algorithm to predict if the relationship will last.

Notjust romantic relationships.

Uh, business, friendships, you name it.

Logan Pierce and Justin Ogilvy promised to launch Alchementary.

I am going to make sure they keep their promise.

[BEAR WH I MPERS]

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

OG I L: Hey, Pierce. Buddy.

Before you go, about tonight?

Party, New York Stock Exchange, potential investors?

Right. I'II be early. And make sure there's an invitation for Mr. Wiley here.

Isn't this the guy who outbid you at the charity auction?

-We're considering a merger. CAMPBELL: Think that's a good idea?

-Partnering with a guy you just met? -I think it's ideal .

I haven't had time to Iearn all his flaws yet.

See you at the party, bitches.

FI NCH : Mr. Reese, Emily Morton vowed to make Pierce launch her technology.

A technology that would seriously compete with Friendczar.

Pretty sure Pierce is the victim , not the perpetrator.

Someone made an attempt on his Iife.

Someone with hacking skills.

Someone Iike a missing software engineer?

Why get the exact same car when your old one didn't even have a scratch?

Because it's unparalleled . I don't collect toys.

Just the best of what I need . One car. One watch .

Two mil . Charts the phase and the orbit of the moon , tells time to the nanosecond ...

...and I don't have to wind it.

For $2 million , I certainly hope not.

[TI RES SCREECH I NG]

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

Welcome to my humble abode.

You call this humble?

Single malt Scotch , neat, right?

-That's what you had at the auction . -No, thanks. It's impressive, though .

Knowing people is my business.

I thought your business was schmoozing investors...

-...for your I PO. -Mm .

My watch might not be able to tell time to the nanosecond ...

-... but you're Iate. -I have better things to do.

[PLAYER GRU NTS AN D CROWD CH EERS ON MON ITOR]

Finch , Pierce is missing his own party.

Just as well .

Pierce won't be safe in public now.

Check your phone.

Friendczar's lPO is predicted to reach record-breaking numbers.

-Think you'll make history? -Stock this overvalued, how could we not?

Personally, l'd wait to buy for a day or two until after the stock dips.

You know what l mean ? Whew.

The board called an emergency meeting . Pierce is no Ionger CEO of Friendczar.

Who died?

Oh , God , don't tell me it was me.

The board thinks they can do your job affer all . You're out.

Well , here's to unemployment.

[CLEARS TH ROAT]

[CLEARS TH ROAT]

I don't feel--

Pierce?

-Pierce? -Aah !

Sit back, sit back, sit back.

You're having a reaction .

Are you allergic to anything?

Naproxen .

-Mr. Reese, what's going on? -The Scotch , it was spiked .

Pierce is going into anaphylactic shock.

-Sending an ambulance. -No time. I need to get air into his Iungs.

Relax. Look at me.

You're gonna be okay.

Is Pierce all right, Mr. Reese?

REESE: Yes.

But he's gonna have one hell of a hangover.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

[BOTH SIG H I NG]

You saved me.

I n the Chinese culture, you'd be responsible for me for Iife.

GIad neither one of us is Chinese then .

Who has access to your house?

Just a hundred or so of my closest friends.

I like people.

-I like to party. -Who knows you're allergic to Naproxen?

I don't know. I didn't develop the allergy until recently. Why are you doing this?

Somebody put you up to this? Is this penance for some deep, dark mistake?

Spoken Iike a man who's made his fair share.

I-- Mistakes don't interest me.

I don't look back. I keep moving . It's the only way to stay alive.

Philosophy makes sense, coming from a kid whose parents went bankrupt.

Knowing people is my business too.

Yeah , my dad owned a Iittle camera shop...

...and , um , he made most of his money developing film .

And he insisted on staying the course.

AII the way until the point that film became extinct.

Then he tried to sell digital cameras, but it was too late...

...everyone had one in their phone.

It's like he didn't even see it coming .

When the business failed , we lost everything .

And you think if you're constantly evolving this won't happen to you?

Of course it'll happen .

But if you accept change is inevitable, it doesn't crush you when it does.

Every technology ages, John .

The only thing that never gets old ...

... is connecting with people.

That's what everyone wants.

A real connection .

Well , you might wanna consider Iosing a couple hundred of your closest friends.

Mm-hm .

I think you've had enough excitement for one night.

I'm gonna rest my eyes...

...and give you a break.

REESE: l've put the billionaire to bed, Finch. We need to meet.

REESE: N ice night for a walk.

-Why didn't you bring Bear? -Bear didn't wanna come.

I read that if there's anxiety in the home...

... it can make your pets become upset.

Have you been under any excess stress?

Besides being Iocked in an 11 -by-1 3 in Rikers...

...and wearing a bomb vest around Manhattan? Not really.

Whoever poisoned Pierce had access to his home.

-We need to move him . -My thinking exactly.

I'Il have Detective Carter examine the decanter for prints.

You can escort our friend to the safe house.

-Time to wake the billionaire. -I'm awake.

And just who are you?

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

You don't wanna tell me who you are, that's okay. I already know.

Tell me, how did you make a bug small enough to fit inside this?

It was your voice too.

You hacked into my car and remotely accessed the accelerator and the brakes.

That makes you the brains of the operation . No offense.

And judging by your bespoke suit, you're also the bank.

Then there's you , John . You took out my security guard , Zvi .

He's a former Mossad agent and an expert in Krav Maga.

So, what is it, John? Former Special Ops?

Ex-CIA?

And you , just a very rich hacker?

As far as you're concerned , Mr. Pierce, we don't exist.

That's what's most impressive. John , I've been Iooking into you .

I'm not talking about your bogus cover.

You and your partner don't seem to have a digital footprint.

So I have to ask myself, how is this possible in this information age?

People with that kind of anonymity, that's true power.

So you see, I know who you are.

The only thing I don't know is why you do what you do.

Let me remind you , Mr. Pierce, that we saved your Iife. Twice.

Wanna keep butting into our affairs or do you want to live?

No need to get testy. I was just making small talk.

-So, what's the plan? -I'm afraid that you can't trust anyone.

We've arranged to take you to a safe house nearby.

You don't want anyone to find me, but you're keeping me in the city?

You know a better place?

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

Where exactly is this place?

We just flew 1 0 hours, you can't wait one more minute?

[RUSSIAN FOLK M US IC PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS]

[BEAR WH I MPERI NG]

[CELL PHON E RI NGS]

Just the person I wanna speak to.

Any closer to discovering who poisoned Logan Pierce ?

CARTER: Got a partial print off the decanter.

Sent it through AFIS.

Came up with a match with 11 points in common .

The guy's prints were on file because he's an officer of the court.

[RUSSIAN FOLK M US IC PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS]

Mm-hm . Heh-heh-heh .

-Mm . -Might wanna slow down .

-H m? -I can't protect you from a heart attack.

You know...

...you need to enjoy Iife.

No one knows how to enjoy Iife as much as you , Pierce.

How did he find us?

He got a text from Pierce.

I think you take pleasure in making me schlep after you . These couldn't wait?

I thought we agreed . No friends.

He's also my lawyer. You know, and the board forced me out.

I n doing so, they relinquished my non-compete clause...

...which is good , because I am officially Iooking for a new job.

Mr. Reese, something you should know. Campbell's prints were on the decanter.

The board made Pierce take a medical exam for his insurance.

H is Iawyer filed the paperwork.

You spiked his alcohol .

You read about his allergy on his insurance application .

You tried to kill him .

Jeremy.

Is that true?

No, that's absurd .

You're my best client, my only client.

Pierce plans to switch firms affer the I PO is released .

CAMPBELL: Why would I want you dead?

Maybe because your only client is Iooking for a new attorney.

Was I talking to you?

Who the hell do you think you are?

-Might want to keep your hands to yourself. -Are you threatening me?

[CAM PBELL YELLI NG AN D GRU NTI NG]

Yo, Pierce, are we missing all the fun?

[DANCE MUS IC PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS]

U h . . . . Ahem .

Full disclosure, I might have mentioned our little trip to one or two people.

I mean , you can't expect me to be all business, can you?

If you're not gonna take your safety seriously, why should I?

PI ERCE: Oh , come on , relax, dude.

Join the party.

Campbell's no Ionger a threat, Finch . Pierce has enough friends.

He doesn't need our help.

[CHATTERI NG]

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

-Hey, you want a coffee or something? -No, I'm good , thanks.

What you doing here, anyway?

Somebody made two cops disappear without a trace.

Probably not the kind of stuff you wanna Ieave Iying around your desk.

Been thinking about the billionaire, his own Iawyer trying to do him in .

My heart breaks for him.

I'm glad you got my back.

You got a point, Fusco?

There are some things you should know about me.

-Some mistakes I made-- -No. Heh .

We're not doing that. You don't get to share that with me.

You say you've changed , so I'm gonna trust you .

But if those mistakes you made come back to haunt you ...

...you will not expect me to cover for you .

We may be partners...

...we might even be friends...

... but, um , I'm still a cop. Understood?

Yeah , I hear you .

Loud and clear.

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

I'Il be home in 1 2 hours to help with the next number.

I'm afraid that'll be too late. The next number has already come up. Only it's not new.

-Someone we've helped before? -Someone we're currently helping .

Logan Pierce. There's another threat against him.

Or else someone is conspiring with the lawyer.

AII I know for certain is that Pierce is in immediate danger.

I'm headed back to the club now.

No need . I was able to hack Pierce's credit card account.

H is card was just used at the Grand Vishera Hotel in St. Petersburg .

I'm sending you the address. It's right over the bridge.

[KNOCKS]

Pierce, it's John .

WOMAN : Stop right there.

He warned me someone would come. I've called security. Get out.

Emily. What are you doing here?

I said get out. Now.

Mr. Reese, what's going on?

Emily Morton .

She's alive and appears to be a pretty good ...

What'd you mean he warned you someone else would come?

[G U N CLI CKS]

Who's he?

Pierce put you up at this hotel , didn't he?

Finch , Emily's not working against Pierce. She's working with him.

I haven't seen Pierce since he came by my apartment about a week ago.

Said someone was on to us, told me to pack a bag ...

...so I could finish Alchementary.

We planned to announce our project tomorrow.

Emily's technology will cannibalize Friendczar's business.

It seems the person closest to Pierce is the one with the most to Iose.

Emily didn't break us up, Justin , you did .

You know, she actually reminds me of you . How you used to be.

Passionate, principled .

Before you decided we need to bully and bury our competition .

-I didn't hear you objecting . -You weren't Iistening .

How many times did I tell you I don't want to run a business Iike that?

You didn't want to run a business at all .

Left me to do everything . I thought maybe you'd gone off the deep end .

Parading around town half-naked , taking board meetings at Coney Island .

Then I realized ...

... if the board pushed you out, your non-compete clause would be void .

You could take Emily's technology public.

Emily's idea is better.

It's what people want. The perfect match in love and friendship, even business.

What do you know about friends?

AII your friends want you dead .

Even your new pal has Ieft you .

Dump him.

PI ERCE: No. No. No!

No! Wait! Wait!

Wait!

I had them right where I wanted them , you know.

-You need to get new friends, Pierce. -I couldn't agree with you more, man .

[I N DISTI NCT CHATTERI NG]

FI NCH : Either we move on to the next thing together or we don 't. You decide.

Today, Justin Ogilvy, the cofounder of friendczar. com...

...was brought up on charges for attempting to murder his partner, Logan Pierce.

Some friendships aren't made to Iast.

The Friendczar lPO has continued its downward slump...

...after an announcement that Pierce is launching a new company...

...that's in direct competition with Friendczar.

Pierce is partnering with software engineer Emily Morton...

...and, surprisingly, Ben Kamin, his former rival.

MAN [ON MON ITOR] : Thanks, Janet. Now turning our attention to the weather...

AII right, Chewie, prepare to get posterized .

I heard your mother sat on her iPhone, and it turned into an iPad .

Is that true, man? Is it true?

[PLAYERS SPEAKI NG I N D ISTI NCTLY]

Next bucket gets the other guy's car. Or in your case, your bike.

Or MetroCard . Whatever. Bet's a bet.

-Whoa, thief. You are a thief. BIG FOOT: Aah !

I said check the ball . You guys heard me say check the ball?

No, that's ball game, what you said .

I'm just kidding , showboat.

I'm a man of my word .

-Man , you crazy. -Yeah , I've heard that.

[ALL CHATTERI NG]

[PI ERCE CH UCKLES]

You got some game.

-You're full of surprises. -You're one to talk.

-Partnering with Kamin , your competition? -The guy's a straight shooter.

PIus Emily's software said we're compatible.

Not so much with his wife, though .

One thing I don't get...

...you warned Emily about Ogilvy.

And you knew he was after you .

Why didn't you tell me?

Haven't you heard? I have a reckless disregard for my own safety.

You just wanted to see how I worked .

You know, I finally figured it out.

Why you do what you do.

AItruism.

How's that working out for you?

Just a Iittle thank you .

So I guess you'II be moving on to your next hapless stranger.

[ENG I N E REVVI NG LOU DLY]

I can at Ieast give you a lift.

Actually, I , uh ...

I think I'Il take the subway.

What are we doing here, Finch?

-We have another number? -No, a date.

You got me a date?

Not you . Bear.

He needs a friend . Hello.

[WOMAN LAUG H I NG]

-Good thinking , Finch . -Heh .

Our billionaire gave me a Iittle something .

Well ...

REESE: It tells time to the nanosecond .

That was a very expensive watch .

Not to mention , a gift.

A giff equipped with GPS.

A cunning billionaire with unlimited resources.

Our friend is just curious enough to be dangerous.
