1
00:00:03,962 --> 00:00:05,964
<i>Previously on Billions.</i>

2
00:00:06,006 --> 00:00:09,259
<i>Mike Prince is Axe's real enemy.</i>

3
00:00:09,300 --> 00:00:11,428
<i>I want to officially
welcome each of you to...</i>

4
00:00:11,469 --> 00:00:13,013
<i>Taylor Mason Carbon!</i>

5
00:00:13,054 --> 00:00:14,973
<i>-Whoo! Nice. All right!</i>

6
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:17,308
<i>You know my new artist,
Tanner? He's not workin'.</i>

7
00:00:17,350 --> 00:00:18,768
<i>You know what,
let me talk to him.</i>

8
00:00:24,566 --> 00:00:26,443
<i>This happened to be
a Nico Tanner original?</i>

9
00:00:30,447 --> 00:00:31,990
<i>The doctors are
running some tests,</i>

10
00:00:32,032 --> 00:00:33,718
<i>but they think he'll
need a kidney transplant.</i>

11
00:00:33,742 --> 00:00:35,827
<i>My father wasn't
healthy enough to pass</i>

12
00:00:35,869 --> 00:00:37,746
<i>the workup to get
on the donor list.</i>

13
00:00:37,787 --> 00:00:39,330
<i>I have a guy.</i>

14
00:00:39,372 --> 00:00:41,207
<i>They need you to rip
a letter on my behalf</i>

15
00:00:41,249 --> 00:00:42,917
<i>out of the SEC
and grease the skids</i>

16
00:00:42,959 --> 00:00:44,544
<i>- to a charter.
- Sure.</i>

17
00:00:44,586 --> 00:00:47,088
<i>Welcome to the NYAG.</i>

18
00:00:47,130 --> 00:00:49,007
<i>Today, you're gonna go
after a cabinet member.</i>

19
00:00:49,049 --> 00:00:51,968
<i>Secretary of the
Treasury, Todd Krakow.</i>

20
00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:54,429
<i>We have a problem
with the assignment.</i>

21
00:00:54,471 --> 00:00:58,224
<i>I'm not part of a
criminal enterprise...</i>

22
00:00:58,266 --> 00:00:59,976
<i>He's out. Fired by
the White House.</i>

23
00:01:00,018 --> 00:01:01,895
<i>Back to square fuckin' one!</i>

24
00:01:01,936 --> 00:01:06,566
<i>Is this a reward or
to teach me a lesson?</i>

25
00:01:06,608 --> 00:01:08,401
<i>Both.</i>

26
00:01:08,443 --> 00:01:10,320
<i>We need a rockstar
in our corner, too.</i>

27
00:01:10,361 --> 00:01:11,571
<i>Mike Prince.</i>

28
00:01:11,613 --> 00:01:13,573
<i>Go to him. Enlist him. Team up.</i>

29
00:01:13,615 --> 00:01:16,034
<i>Get me anyone who
can help us find out</i>

30
00:01:16,076 --> 00:01:19,245
<i>what is near and dear to
Michael Thomas Aquinas Prince.</i>

31
00:01:19,287 --> 00:01:21,748
<i>Because when I find
out what matters to him,</i>

32
00:01:21,790 --> 00:01:24,459
<i>I am going to
fuckin' destroy it.</i>

33
00:01:24,501 --> 00:01:27,545
<i>And him right along with it.</i>

34
00:02:18,304 --> 00:02:20,098
<i>Ah.</i>

35
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:22,600
<i>You're putting on
this little show here</i>

36
00:02:22,642 --> 00:02:24,727
<i>instead of at home
and instead of managing</i>

37
00:02:24,769 --> 00:02:26,813
<i>our underperforming employees.</i>

38
00:02:26,855 --> 00:02:28,815
<i>That means you got
somethin' to tell me.</i>

39
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:31,860
<i>You read me like the
Sunday papers, honcho.</i>

40
00:02:31,901 --> 00:02:34,154
<i>I was re-toxing last
night at the Aviary</i>

41
00:02:34,195 --> 00:02:36,281
<i>and learned one
Michael Prince is ready</i>

42
00:02:36,322 --> 00:02:38,533
<i>to be confirmed
Ambassador Extraordinary</i>

43
00:02:38,575 --> 00:02:40,285
<i>and Plenipotentiary to Denmark.</i>

44
00:02:40,326 --> 00:02:41,828
<i>You don't fuckin' say.</i>

45
00:02:41,870 --> 00:02:43,705
<i>I do.</i>

46
00:02:43,746 --> 00:02:46,499
<i>And while I saw the upside in
him posting up in Copenhagen,</i>

47
00:02:46,541 --> 00:02:49,002
<i>I also envisioned
him parachuting back</i>

48
00:02:49,043 --> 00:02:52,005
<i>into our fair city,
the anointed one.</i>

49
00:02:52,046 --> 00:02:56,843
<i>So I decided to give him
a smorgasbord of shit.</i>

50
00:02:56,885 --> 00:02:59,345
<i>I spent the last 18
hours in a whirlwind</i>

51
00:02:59,387 --> 00:03:01,681
<i>of Mike Prince
research-wining, dining,</i>

52
00:03:01,723 --> 00:03:03,433
<i>drugging, grooming,</i>

53
00:03:03,474 --> 00:03:04,851
<i>levering, horse-trading...</i>

54
00:03:04,893 --> 00:03:06,186
<i>And the dividend?</i>

55
00:03:06,227 --> 00:03:07,604
<i>Prince keeps
himself locked down.</i>

56
00:03:07,645 --> 00:03:09,606
<i>Fort Knox-style. But
one Roger Dunbar,</i>

57
00:03:09,647 --> 00:03:12,192
<i>known to you as
Scooter, is our way in.</i>

58
00:03:12,233 --> 00:03:13,836
<i>The man likes to play
the angles at football</i>

59
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:15,695
<i>and basketball and horse racing.</i>

60
00:03:15,737 --> 00:03:17,363
<i>Scooter's a sports bettor?</i>

61
00:03:17,405 --> 00:03:20,491
<i>On a staggering scale
through numerous fronts.</i>

62
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:22,160
<i>He's trying to disguise it,</i>

63
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:25,288
<i>but no way he can afford
the inevitable swings.</i>

64
00:03:25,330 --> 00:03:28,291
<i>He's leaking like a
raft at a kid's pool party.</i>

65
00:03:28,333 --> 00:03:30,960
<i>And his leaks
are Prince's leaks.</i>

66
00:03:31,002 --> 00:03:33,296
<i>The sort of vulnerability
that stops you</i>

67
00:03:33,338 --> 00:03:35,173
<i>from getting government
security clearance.</i>

68
00:03:35,215 --> 00:03:37,717
<i>And for good reason.</i>

69
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:39,844
<i>Nail him to the pyre,
douse him with oil,</i>

70
00:03:39,886 --> 00:03:41,221
<i>and light his ass up.</i>

71
00:03:41,262 --> 00:03:44,557
<i>Yes. Joan of Arc style.</i>

72
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:46,059
<i>But first, a quick nap.</i>

73
00:03:54,484 --> 00:03:58,029
<i>Watch yourself with them
when you go in there later.</i>

74
00:03:58,071 --> 00:03:59,131
<i>You make it sound
like I'm going into</i>

75
00:03:59,155 --> 00:04:00,657
<i>the lion enclosure at the zoo.</i>

76
00:04:01,991 --> 00:04:03,493
<i>Axe Cap's been called worse.</i>

77
00:04:03,534 --> 00:04:05,203
<i>Yeah.</i>

78
00:04:05,245 --> 00:04:06,722
<i>Or are you just afraid
I'm gonna say something</i>

79
00:04:06,746 --> 00:04:08,164
<i>to make you look bad?</i>

80
00:04:08,206 --> 00:04:11,584
<i>-Fuck no. The opposite.</i>

81
00:04:11,626 --> 00:04:13,002
<i>Just... if you're
not used to it,</i>

82
00:04:13,044 --> 00:04:14,545
<i>the money talk
from my colleagues</i>

83
00:04:14,587 --> 00:04:17,757
<i>can be relentless,
shameless, suffocating.</i>

84
00:04:17,799 --> 00:04:19,425
<i>Ah. You know,</i>

85
00:04:19,467 --> 00:04:22,262
<i>only rich people get
embarrassed by money talk.</i>

86
00:04:22,303 --> 00:04:24,281
<i>The rest of us get embarrassed
because we don't have any money.</i>

87
00:04:24,305 --> 00:04:27,225
<i>My job is to train them
to tune every fiber of</i>

88
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:28,935
<i>their being to get
as much as they can.</i>

89
00:04:28,977 --> 00:04:31,062
<i>But I've seen the
negative effect it can have.</i>

90
00:04:31,104 --> 00:04:32,939
<i>It can restrict
growth in other ways.</i>

91
00:04:32,981 --> 00:04:35,108
<i>Well, you can say that,
'cause you're one of 'em.</i>

92
00:04:35,149 --> 00:04:36,943
<i>You're rich.</i>

93
00:04:38,611 --> 00:04:40,196
<i>How much you make?</i>

94
00:04:42,657 --> 00:04:44,617
<i>- Really?
- Yeah.</i>

95
00:04:44,659 --> 00:04:46,661
<i>It'll clarify things.</i>

96
00:04:46,703 --> 00:04:48,579
<i>My bonus was $9
million last year.</i>

97
00:04:50,623 --> 00:04:52,166
<i>Jesus.</i>

98
00:04:52,208 --> 00:04:54,127
<i>Look, I get that some
of this is new to you.</i>

99
00:04:54,168 --> 00:04:56,462
<i>And... you can be
who you want to be.</i>

100
00:04:56,504 --> 00:04:58,506
<i>But y-you just seem...</i>

101
00:05:00,258 --> 00:05:02,194
<i>I don't know, overly
interested in what those buyers</i>

102
00:05:02,218 --> 00:05:03,928
<i>like Lisa had to
say the other night.</i>

103
00:05:03,970 --> 00:05:06,889
<i>But when we met, you acted
like money is like chains.</i>

104
00:05:06,931 --> 00:05:10,852
<i>So I guess I'm
just saying, beware.</i>

105
00:05:10,893 --> 00:05:13,771
<i>Yeah, I hear you.</i>

106
00:05:13,813 --> 00:05:16,316
<i>It's just that now that
I have a little bit of it,</i>

107
00:05:16,357 --> 00:05:17,942
<i>that money, I...</i>

108
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:19,902
<i>it's startin' to
feel like freedom.</i>

109
00:05:23,156 --> 00:05:24,115
<i>Karl!</i>

110
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:25,491
<i>You rang?</i>

111
00:05:28,703 --> 00:05:31,015
<i>You look ready to toss your
cap into the air at West Point.</i>

112
00:05:31,039 --> 00:05:33,166
<i>Don't make a
whole thing out of it.</i>

113
00:05:33,207 --> 00:05:35,501
<i>Pull the record of every
prisoner I've put away.</i>

114
00:05:35,543 --> 00:05:38,004
<i>- Here and at SDNY.
- Criminal records?</i>

115
00:05:38,046 --> 00:05:40,089
<i>Uh, no, medical records.</i>

116
00:05:40,131 --> 00:05:41,674
<i>I'm lookin' for a kidney.</i>

117
00:05:41,716 --> 00:05:43,676
<i>Pristine quality. Primo.</i>

118
00:05:43,718 --> 00:05:45,511
<i>Ah, Chuck. Shoppin'
for the old man.</i>

119
00:05:45,553 --> 00:05:46,929
<i>I get it.</i>

120
00:05:46,971 --> 00:05:48,449
<i>I used to walk six
miles to the army PX</i>

121
00:05:48,473 --> 00:05:50,558
<i>to get my dad a pack of Lucky's.</i>

122
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,727
<i>- How's he doin'?
- Hm.</i>

123
00:05:52,769 --> 00:05:54,854
<i>Like Clint Eastwood.
Straight-backed but uh...</i>

124
00:05:54,896 --> 00:05:57,148
<i>But sometimes, he just
gets that lost look in the eyes</i>

125
00:05:57,190 --> 00:05:58,816
<i>and starts talking
to the furniture?</i>

126
00:05:58,858 --> 00:06:00,485
<i>In a sense.</i>

127
00:06:00,526 --> 00:06:02,528
<i>Rough for him. Rougher for you.</i>

128
00:06:02,570 --> 00:06:03,738
<i>Hmm.</i>

129
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:05,114
<i>Gets the old compassion flowing.</i>

130
00:06:05,156 --> 00:06:06,366
<i>I'll grab what I can.</i>

131
00:06:07,784 --> 00:06:10,370
<i>Gotta tell ya, it
works. You look great.</i>

132
00:06:10,411 --> 00:06:12,413
<i>- Don't make a whole...
- Copy!</i>

133
00:06:17,627 --> 00:06:19,796
<i>I heard you fell back
to the country place.</i>

134
00:06:19,837 --> 00:06:22,006
<i>Yeah, trying to figure
out how much to sell it for.</i>

135
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:23,841
<i>Lara always liked it. Me?</i>

136
00:06:23,883 --> 00:06:26,219
<i>I can't stand the
quiet. You interested?</i>

137
00:06:26,260 --> 00:06:28,221
<i>Nah, too rich for my blood.</i>

138
00:06:28,262 --> 00:06:30,556
<i>But you're still interested
in a bank charter, right?</i>

139
00:06:30,598 --> 00:06:32,392
<i>- You know I am.
- Well...</i>

140
00:06:32,433 --> 00:06:34,519
<i>There may be a way
around our obstacle.</i>

141
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,580
<i>When we heard that Rhoades
was teaching up at the law school,</i>

142
00:06:36,604 --> 00:06:38,731
<i>I tapped some Yale
connects I know from boating.</i>

143
00:06:38,773 --> 00:06:42,735
<i>And it turns out he was using
a bunch of the law school kids</i>

144
00:06:42,777 --> 00:06:44,654
<i>as a think tank to
take out Krakow.</i>

145
00:06:45,863 --> 00:06:47,240
<i>Motherfucker.</i>

146
00:06:47,281 --> 00:06:49,450
<i>So I ran my own think tank.</i>

147
00:06:56,749 --> 00:06:59,419
<i>Feels like time for a recount.</i>

148
00:06:59,460 --> 00:07:00,962
<i>Do it.</i>

149
00:07:01,003 --> 00:07:02,922
<i>Find a true believer
amongst those acolytes</i>

150
00:07:02,964 --> 00:07:05,842
<i>and let's get Rhoades
caught in a crossfire hurricane.</i>

151
00:07:05,883 --> 00:07:07,927
<i>And find me another
charter. Get Victor on it.</i>

152
00:07:17,770 --> 00:07:19,939
<i>Designing for the space?</i>

153
00:07:19,981 --> 00:07:21,649
<i>Making sure it's lit properly.</i>

154
00:07:21,691 --> 00:07:24,444
<i>Right. Like Von
Sydow, not Dusty.</i>

155
00:07:24,485 --> 00:07:26,446
<i>"I don't sell my
work by the yard."</i>

156
00:07:26,487 --> 00:07:28,781
<i>I get it. I studied art history.</i>

157
00:07:30,032 --> 00:07:31,784
<i>And yet you work here.</i>

158
00:07:31,826 --> 00:07:33,286
<i>Well, in a way, so do you.</i>

159
00:07:34,328 --> 00:07:35,413
<i>Who fuck are you?</i>

160
00:07:35,455 --> 00:07:37,415
<i>The name's Mafee.</i>

161
00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:39,292
<i>I don't think I'll
remember that.</i>

162
00:07:42,837 --> 00:07:44,464
<i>Do you own any art?</i>

163
00:07:44,505 --> 00:07:46,132
<i>I have a hand-painted
production cell</i>

164
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:48,885
<i>from the movie Tron
with the young Bridges.</i>

165
00:07:48,926 --> 00:07:50,470
<i>- Not...
- Obviously.</i>

166
00:07:50,511 --> 00:07:52,221
<i>I meant as an investment.</i>

167
00:07:52,263 --> 00:07:53,764
<i>Oh, not yet. But
I'll start acquiring</i>

168
00:07:53,806 --> 00:07:56,309
<i>in the next 12 to 18 months.</i>

169
00:07:56,350 --> 00:07:59,145
<i>- What do you like?
- No fuckin' idea.</i>

170
00:07:59,187 --> 00:08:01,606
<i>I don't know anything about
the underlying commodity.</i>

171
00:08:01,647 --> 00:08:02,857
<i>Don't need to.</i>

172
00:08:02,899 --> 00:08:04,650
<i>Just that it can go up in value.</i>

173
00:08:04,692 --> 00:08:07,028
<i>It's speculation, with an
option for manipulation.</i>

174
00:08:13,910 --> 00:08:15,453
<i>What'll you give me for that?</i>

175
00:08:29,091 --> 00:08:30,927
<i>You were worried
about me, and I beat 'em.</i>

176
00:08:30,968 --> 00:08:33,429
<i>That group of
overpaid philistines</i>

177
00:08:33,471 --> 00:08:35,681
<i>just gave me $3,200.
For a signed doodle.</i>

178
00:08:35,723 --> 00:08:37,808
<i>- Seriously?
- Yeah.</i>

179
00:08:39,393 --> 00:08:40,393
<i>Hm.</i>

180
00:08:47,652 --> 00:08:49,362
<i>It's great that you
guys are doing this.</i>

181
00:08:49,403 --> 00:08:50,714
<i>So many so-called
impact investors,</i>

182
00:08:50,738 --> 00:08:52,323
<i>they don't really care.</i>

183
00:08:52,365 --> 00:08:54,009
<i>We're money where your
mouth is type of people.</i>

184
00:08:54,033 --> 00:08:55,868
<i>[presenter] And now,
please welcome our host</i>

185
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:57,870
<i>for the evening, Mike Novogratz.</i>

186
00:09:00,540 --> 00:09:01,958
<i>I want to thank all of you</i>

187
00:09:01,999 --> 00:09:03,626
<i>for supporting us tonight.</i>

188
00:09:03,668 --> 00:09:05,628
<i>The mission of the Bail Project</i>

189
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:08,130
<i>is to combat racial and
economic disparities</i>

190
00:09:08,172 --> 00:09:09,566
<i>within our broken
criminal justice system...</i>

191
00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:10,800
<i>Mock tuna wrap?
- No, thanks.</i>

192
00:09:10,841 --> 00:09:14,011
<i>Maybe. Whoa.</i>

193
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,229
<i>Take the pretend
tuna. And a napkin.</i>

194
00:09:23,271 --> 00:09:25,898
<i>- So you...
- Yes.</i>

195
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:28,776
<i>I... have to go
grind some daiquiris.</i>

196
00:09:28,818 --> 00:09:31,237
<i>Wait, it's not daiquiri season.
And you don't grind them.</i>

197
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:33,990
<i>I don't know why I
said that. I gotta go.</i>

198
00:09:34,031 --> 00:09:35,741
<i>If you want to dig deeper,</i>

199
00:09:35,783 --> 00:09:38,119
<i>you can pay in
Bitcoin or dollars.</i>

200
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,996
<i>And I'm giving you
a good reason to.</i>

201
00:09:40,037 --> 00:09:41,223
<i>It's my great pleasure
to introduce to you</i>

202
00:09:41,247 --> 00:09:43,332
<i>a friend of the Bail Project,</i>

203
00:09:43,374 --> 00:09:45,376
<i>an American hero...</i>

204
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:48,087
<i>my friend, Mr. Jason Isbell.</i>

205
00:09:56,304 --> 00:09:57,930
<i>Thank you all.</i>

206
00:09:57,972 --> 00:10:01,434
<i>If you ever spent
even one night in jail,</i>

207
00:10:01,475 --> 00:10:05,396
<i>then you understand just
how precious your freedom is.</i>

208
00:10:05,438 --> 00:10:07,690
<i>And if you're a human
being with your eyes open,</i>

209
00:10:07,732 --> 00:10:09,734
<i>you realize that</i>

210
00:10:09,775 --> 00:10:12,778
<i>freedom isn't exactly equally
available for everybody.</i>

211
00:10:12,820 --> 00:10:15,114
<i>So I'm happy to be here
with you this evening.</i>

212
00:10:29,545 --> 00:10:32,173
<i>I couldn't be happy
in the city at night.</i>

213
00:10:32,214 --> 00:10:35,134
<i>You can't see the
stars for the neon lights.</i>

214
00:10:35,176 --> 00:10:38,095
<i>The sidewalk's dirty
and the river's worse.</i>

215
00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:41,182
<i>The underground
trains all run in reverse.</i>

216
00:10:41,223 --> 00:10:44,310
<i>Nobody here can dance like me.</i>

217
00:10:44,352 --> 00:10:47,271
<i>Everybody's clapping
on the one and the three.</i>

218
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:51,942
<i>Am I The last of my kind?</i>

219
00:10:53,361 --> 00:10:58,199
<i>Am I The last of my kind?</i>

220
00:10:59,950 --> 00:11:02,578
<i>So many people
with so much to do.</i>

221
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:06,165
<i>The winter's so cold
your hands turn blue.</i>

222
00:11:06,207 --> 00:11:08,668
<i>Old men sleeping
on the filthy ground.</i>

223
00:11:08,709 --> 00:11:11,671
<i>They spend their whole
day just walking around.</i>

224
00:11:11,712 --> 00:11:14,840
<i>And nobody else
here seems to care.</i>

225
00:11:14,882 --> 00:11:17,843
<i>They walk right past them
like they ain't even there.</i>

226
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:22,682
<i>Am I - The last of my kind?</i>

227
00:11:33,734 --> 00:11:36,070
<i>Oh, shit!</i>

228
00:11:52,795 --> 00:11:54,588
<i>This isn't great.</i>

229
00:11:54,630 --> 00:11:59,468
<i>A picture of you burning
a bathtub full of ballots?</i>

230
00:11:59,510 --> 00:12:01,178
<i>No.</i>

231
00:12:01,220 --> 00:12:03,055
<i>Back in college, junior year.</i>

232
00:12:03,097 --> 00:12:04,724
<i>You rigged the election?</i>

233
00:12:04,765 --> 00:12:06,410
<i>You really wanted to
be president of the YCC.</i>

234
00:12:06,434 --> 00:12:08,227
<i>More than that.</i>

235
00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:10,312
<i>Look closely and you'll see
the name of my opponent,</i>

236
00:12:10,354 --> 00:12:12,565
<i>Robertson Wycoff.</i>

237
00:12:12,606 --> 00:12:15,651
<i>Oh my God, this guy
was straight out of the.</i>

238
00:12:15,693 --> 00:12:18,696
<i>Niedermeyer from Animal House
school of student government.</i>

239
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:20,090
<i>Ah, I'm starting to
remember you telling me</i>

240
00:12:20,114 --> 00:12:21,574
<i>about this in law school.</i>

241
00:12:21,615 --> 00:12:22,926
<i>He was like a fascist
back then, right?</i>

242
00:12:22,950 --> 00:12:24,410
<i>I remember the times,</i>

243
00:12:24,452 --> 00:12:27,580
<i>we were pro-divestment,
anti-apartheid.</i>

244
00:12:27,621 --> 00:12:29,582
<i>He leaned more status quo,</i>

245
00:12:29,623 --> 00:12:32,293
<i>said South Africa
wasn't our problem.</i>

246
00:12:32,334 --> 00:12:34,295
<i>You couldn't risk
letting him win.</i>

247
00:12:34,336 --> 00:12:36,589
<i>No, indeed.</i>

248
00:12:36,630 --> 00:12:39,759
<i>So some friends of mine did
the Saybrook College vote tally,</i>

249
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,221
<i>which meant we could
suppress my opponent's turnout.</i>

250
00:12:44,263 --> 00:12:46,098
<i>Retroactively.</i>

251
00:12:46,140 --> 00:12:48,180
<i>You stole a student election
and posed for pictures.</i>

252
00:12:49,810 --> 00:12:51,771
<i>Our own little homage
to "Landslide Lyndon."</i>

253
00:12:51,812 --> 00:12:53,606
<i>People find out you
turned your dorm room</i>

254
00:12:53,647 --> 00:12:55,900
<i>into Tammany Hall, that's
a potential career killer.</i>

255
00:12:55,941 --> 00:12:59,111
<i>And I have been sent this
memento mori, anonymously,</i>

256
00:12:59,153 --> 00:13:00,738
<i>with the gracious
opportunity to resign</i>

257
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:02,656
<i>my teaching post at Yale.</i>

258
00:13:02,698 --> 00:13:03,866
<i>It's extortion. You can't.</i>

259
00:13:03,908 --> 00:13:05,534
<i>I don't plan to.</i>

260
00:13:05,576 --> 00:13:07,203
<i>You have any idea who sent it?</i>

261
00:13:07,244 --> 00:13:08,788
<i>I do.</i>

262
00:13:08,829 --> 00:13:11,081
<i>A recalcitrant former pupil.</i>

263
00:13:12,249 --> 00:13:14,293
<i>And much like a disobedient dog,</i>

264
00:13:15,586 --> 00:13:17,630
<i>I will bring him to heel.</i>

265
00:13:19,465 --> 00:13:21,926
<i>I forget that when
you have a boss,</i>

266
00:13:21,967 --> 00:13:23,719
<i>they can summon you.</i>

267
00:13:23,761 --> 00:13:25,471
<i>Or is that more of a king thing?</i>

268
00:13:25,513 --> 00:13:28,474
<i>Both? Anyway, here
I am, summoned.</i>

269
00:13:28,516 --> 00:13:29,558
<i>Close the door.</i>

270
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:37,316
<i>I want to talk about last
night. If you ran into me,</i>

271
00:13:37,358 --> 00:13:38,960
<i>you can run into people
we do business with.</i>

272
00:13:38,984 --> 00:13:40,319
<i>People who will
wonder about you,</i>

273
00:13:40,361 --> 00:13:41,713
<i>about what kind of
place I'm running,</i>

274
00:13:41,737 --> 00:13:42,881
<i>why I don't pay
enough for my people</i>

275
00:13:42,905 --> 00:13:44,949
<i>not to work second jobs.</i>

276
00:13:44,990 --> 00:13:46,367
<i>I can wear a wig.</i>

277
00:13:46,408 --> 00:13:47,719
<i>I have no desire to
make you uncomfortable</i>

278
00:13:47,743 --> 00:13:49,537
<i>or to job shame you.</i>

279
00:13:49,578 --> 00:13:50,996
<i>What's with the gig?</i>

280
00:13:51,038 --> 00:13:52,665
<i>It's a gig economy.</i>

281
00:13:52,706 --> 00:13:54,124
<i>For some people.</i>

282
00:13:54,166 --> 00:13:56,377
<i>Not mid-six-figure
pre-bonus analysts.</i>

283
00:13:56,418 --> 00:13:58,396
<i>My roommates and I have
been doing the Party Down thing</i>

284
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:00,881
<i>together ever since
we got to the city.</i>

285
00:14:00,923 --> 00:14:02,550
<i>So you don't want
to leave them behind.</i>

286
00:14:02,591 --> 00:14:04,361
<i>There are less laborious
ways to keep in touch.</i>

287
00:14:04,385 --> 00:14:06,554
<i>A WhatsApp group, the
occasional escape room.</i>

288
00:14:06,595 --> 00:14:08,597
<i>Uh... hmm.</i>

289
00:14:08,639 --> 00:14:10,516
<i>I get the distinction now.</i>

290
00:14:10,558 --> 00:14:12,601
<i>You're my boss, but not a king.</i>

291
00:14:12,643 --> 00:14:14,645
<i>You don't own my time.</i>

292
00:14:14,687 --> 00:14:16,689
<i>We have a work relationship.</i>

293
00:14:16,730 --> 00:14:19,024
<i>Let's keep it that way. Cool?</i>

294
00:14:19,066 --> 00:14:20,693
<i>Kewl.</i>

295
00:14:20,734 --> 00:14:23,028
<i>That time I said it with
the K and W spelling.</i>

296
00:14:23,070 --> 00:14:24,864
<i>Could you hear it?</i>

297
00:14:24,905 --> 00:14:26,824
<i>Thanks for your concern.</i>

298
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:28,409
<i>Now back to work we go.</i>

299
00:14:30,911 --> 00:14:33,497
<i>Oh, leave it open, closed?</i>

300
00:14:33,539 --> 00:14:34,748
<i>I'm feeling closed.</i>

301
00:14:46,218 --> 00:14:48,387
<i>You take steps yet?</i>

302
00:14:48,429 --> 00:14:50,014
<i>Uh... percolating.</i>

303
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:51,390
<i>I'll get to it.</i>

304
00:14:51,432 --> 00:14:53,601
<i>What's up? You seem phlegmatic.</i>

305
00:14:53,642 --> 00:14:55,436
<i>- Even for...
- No, no, I'm fine.</i>

306
00:14:55,477 --> 00:14:57,563
<i>I'm just in attack
mode, and, uh...</i>

307
00:14:57,605 --> 00:14:59,732
<i>Come on, Mamoun's
is the cleanest falafel</i>

308
00:14:59,773 --> 00:15:02,818
<i>outside of the Holy Land. You
haven't even touched yours.</i>

309
00:15:04,653 --> 00:15:07,781
<i>The thing with the
woman I was seeing...</i>

310
00:15:07,823 --> 00:15:09,199
That's over.

311
00:15:09,241 --> 00:15:11,577
<i>Oh... she was a
keeper, you said.</i>

312
00:15:11,619 --> 00:15:14,079
<i>Yeah, that's what most guys
would call someone that smart,</i>

313
00:15:14,121 --> 00:15:16,957
<i>beautiful, kind, and willing
to throw them a threesome.</i>

314
00:15:18,083 --> 00:15:19,585
<i>Wowza.</i>

315
00:15:19,627 --> 00:15:21,378
<i>- You'd think.
- You didn't like it?</i>

316
00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:23,255
<i>No. I liked it.</i>

317
00:15:23,297 --> 00:15:24,757
<i>Of course I liked it.</i>

318
00:15:26,133 --> 00:15:27,426
<i>Give me pistachio ice cream,</i>

319
00:15:27,468 --> 00:15:28,761
<i>I'll eat it and smile,</i>

320
00:15:28,802 --> 00:15:31,263
<i>as Diamond David
Lee Roth would say.</i>

321
00:15:31,305 --> 00:15:34,058
<i>But, yeah, it was uncomfortable.</i>

322
00:15:34,099 --> 00:15:35,768
<i>It's just too many limbs.</i>

323
00:15:35,809 --> 00:15:37,603
<i>-Too many questions.</i>

324
00:15:37,645 --> 00:15:39,396
<i>Oh, what to do.</i>

325
00:15:39,438 --> 00:15:40,856
<i>Yeah.</i>

326
00:15:40,898 --> 00:15:42,733
<i>Give me rum raisin,
on the other hand,</i>

327
00:15:42,775 --> 00:15:46,070
<i>I'll inhale the whole pint
and root around the fridge</i>

328
00:15:46,111 --> 00:15:47,947
<i>to find another one.</i>

329
00:15:47,988 --> 00:15:49,949
<i>And that's what I was missing.</i>

330
00:15:49,990 --> 00:15:52,117
<i>Well, Cat seems pretty,
you know, liberated.</i>

331
00:15:52,159 --> 00:15:54,179
<i>Have you broached the
subject of what you really want?</i>

332
00:15:54,203 --> 00:15:56,288
<i>A-as you said, she's
smart and sensitive.</i>

333
00:15:56,330 --> 00:15:57,998
<i>And she saw...</i>

334
00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,500
<i>She saw that it
would never work,</i>

335
00:15:59,541 --> 00:16:00,876
<i>not all the way from me.</i>

336
00:16:00,918 --> 00:16:03,212
<i>Not without, you know...</i>

337
00:16:03,253 --> 00:16:04,856
<i>And so she said
something along the lines of,</i>

338
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,465
<i>"We'll always have Paris."</i>

339
00:16:06,507 --> 00:16:09,718
<i>Only the words she used
were harsher, you know?</i>

340
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,136
<i>And all about wasting her time.</i>

341
00:16:11,178 --> 00:16:12,763
<i>-Shit.</i>

342
00:16:12,805 --> 00:16:14,765
<i>And now I got some
goddamn college kid</i>

343
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:16,350
<i>wasting my fucking time.</i>

344
00:16:16,392 --> 00:16:17,935
<i>Well, whatever
you're feeling about</i>

345
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:20,562
<i>what she did to you, do to him.</i>

346
00:16:20,604 --> 00:16:22,147
<i>And I'll help.</i>

347
00:17:02,187 --> 00:17:04,023
<i>You want half my
turkey and chopped liver?</i>

348
00:17:04,064 --> 00:17:05,441
<i>Underrated sandwich.</i>

349
00:17:05,482 --> 00:17:07,359
<i>Bet I can name two better ones.</i>

350
00:17:07,401 --> 00:17:10,362
<i>And I just know you want in
on the other side of that action.</i>

351
00:17:10,404 --> 00:17:13,157
<i>- Why would I?
- 'Cause, like Michael Cheritto,</i>

352
00:17:13,198 --> 00:17:16,326
<i>for you, the
action is the juice.</i>

353
00:17:16,368 --> 00:17:17,619
<i>Don't know him.</i>

354
00:17:17,661 --> 00:17:19,163
<i>You should see Heat.</i>

355
00:17:19,204 --> 00:17:21,040
<i>On my list.</i>

356
00:17:21,081 --> 00:17:22,750
<i>But I get that you're
saying you think</i>

357
00:17:22,791 --> 00:17:24,793
<i>- I'm a gambling man.
- I don't think it.</i>

358
00:17:24,835 --> 00:17:26,462
<i>I observed it.</i>

359
00:17:26,503 --> 00:17:28,064
<i>Those guys are just
scattered to the wind.</i>

360
00:17:28,088 --> 00:17:29,232
<i>They're your runners,
placing your bets</i>

361
00:17:29,256 --> 00:17:31,050
<i>so they don't track back to you.</i>

362
00:17:31,091 --> 00:17:33,135
<i>But I tracked it back.</i>

363
00:17:33,177 --> 00:17:35,888
<i>Look, those guys are a
street marketing team.</i>

364
00:17:35,929 --> 00:17:37,681
<i>I'm building out a brand
on a new company.</i>

365
00:17:37,723 --> 00:17:39,475
<i>Bullshit.</i>

366
00:17:39,516 --> 00:17:42,853
<i>This hobby of yours makes
you vulnerable to extortion.</i>

367
00:17:42,895 --> 00:17:45,355
<i>And that extortion has come.</i>

368
00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:48,233
<i>Prince finds out about
this, he shitcans you,</i>

369
00:17:48,275 --> 00:17:49,985
<i>then you're an orphan
without a purpose.</i>

370
00:17:51,195 --> 00:17:53,155
<i>I thought I was so GD careful.</i>

371
00:17:53,197 --> 00:17:55,074
<i>None of that matters now.</i>

372
00:17:55,115 --> 00:17:56,575
<i>Give up Prince.</i>

373
00:17:57,910 --> 00:17:59,203
<i>Nothin' to give.</i>

374
00:17:59,244 --> 00:18:01,246
<i>He may be the best at bleaching.</i>

375
00:18:01,288 --> 00:18:03,415
<i>But no one gets
to 11 figures clean.</i>

376
00:18:04,666 --> 00:18:06,251
<i>Go home.</i>

377
00:18:06,293 --> 00:18:08,087
<i>Remember the thing.</i>

378
00:18:08,128 --> 00:18:10,130
<i>Come tell Axe and me.</i>

379
00:18:10,172 --> 00:18:11,965
<i>And your life stays the same.</i>

380
00:18:12,007 --> 00:18:15,260
<i>Don't, and you lose
everything you hold sacred.</i>

381
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,282
<i>Glad you accepted
my offer to drop by.</i>

382
00:18:37,324 --> 00:18:39,618
<i>I didn't like the
circumstances you left under.</i>

383
00:18:41,745 --> 00:18:44,123
<i>Never bad to march with
your conscience intact.</i>

384
00:18:44,164 --> 00:18:46,750
<i>Not sure I agree with that.</i>

385
00:18:46,792 --> 00:18:50,963
<i>Conscience can be a little
bit like those old nonstick pans.</i>

386
00:18:51,004 --> 00:18:53,048
<i>Flakes off under heat.</i>

387
00:18:53,090 --> 00:18:56,135
<i>Produces noxious fumes
that ruin the whole enterprise.</i>

388
00:18:56,176 --> 00:18:58,095
<i>Now, what you're
really looking for</i>

389
00:18:58,137 --> 00:19:00,305
<i>is a cast iron soul.</i>

390
00:19:01,390 --> 00:19:02,641
<i>Durable, seasoned.</i>

391
00:19:03,892 --> 00:19:05,769
<i>If I wanted advice
about pots and pans,</i>

392
00:19:05,811 --> 00:19:07,771
<i>I'd have signed up
to intern for Guy Fieri.</i>

393
00:19:09,898 --> 00:19:12,943
<i>Well then, here's the
advice you really came for.</i>

394
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:16,780
<i>Sign your name to
everything you write.</i>

395
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:18,133
<i>I don't know what
you're talking about.</i>

396
00:19:18,157 --> 00:19:21,743
<i>You do. And you should own it.</i>

397
00:19:21,785 --> 00:19:23,370
<i>C'mon, do what
your Chef Fieri does.</i>

398
00:19:23,412 --> 00:19:25,747
<i>Use your leverage.
Don't throw it away.</i>

399
00:19:25,789 --> 00:19:27,958
<i>Hell, he started out
with a '67 Camaro,</i>

400
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,502
<i>bleached goatee, and a
hankering for Sloppy Joe,</i>

401
00:19:30,544 --> 00:19:32,004
<i>and he ended up with an empire.</i>

402
00:19:32,045 --> 00:19:33,714
<i>Morality isn't leverage.</i>

403
00:19:33,755 --> 00:19:35,924
<i>Democracy isn't
leverage. Decency...</i>

404
00:19:35,966 --> 00:19:38,468
<i>It was a student election.</i>

405
00:19:38,510 --> 00:19:41,889
<i>To decide who got to woo
Oingo Boingo to Spring Fling</i>

406
00:19:41,930 --> 00:19:44,099
<i>and push them
not to play Sun City.</i>

407
00:19:44,141 --> 00:19:47,144
<i>It wasn't Il Duce in '34.</i>

408
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:48,270
<i>There's a difference.</i>

409
00:19:48,312 --> 00:19:49,521
<i>Not as much as you think.</i>

410
00:19:49,563 --> 00:19:51,690
<i>One leads to the other.</i>

411
00:19:51,732 --> 00:19:54,109
<i>Oh, fuck.</i>

412
00:19:54,151 --> 00:19:56,695
<i>I can tell how good
that felt to you to say.</i>

413
00:19:56,737 --> 00:19:59,364
<i>Problem is, it's just not true.</i>

414
00:20:04,077 --> 00:20:05,495
<i>You're right about one thing.</i>

415
00:20:05,537 --> 00:20:08,123
<i>Sending an anonymous
email was weak.</i>

416
00:20:08,165 --> 00:20:10,542
<i>I answer for that now.</i>

417
00:20:10,584 --> 00:20:13,545
<i>Just like you will have to
answer for your mistake.</i>

418
00:20:16,673 --> 00:20:18,508
<i>Huh.</i>

419
00:20:18,550 --> 00:20:21,011
<i>See, this is where old
days I'd have appealed</i>

420
00:20:21,053 --> 00:20:23,263
<i>to your fear and greed centers.</i>

421
00:20:25,307 --> 00:20:27,392
<i>Dangled an unattainable
post-graduation job</i>

422
00:20:27,434 --> 00:20:29,436
<i>in front of you, or
the specter of some</i>

423
00:20:29,478 --> 00:20:31,688
<i>member of your family
getting into legal trouble.</i>

424
00:20:31,730 --> 00:20:33,774
<i>Instead,</i>

425
00:20:33,815 --> 00:20:37,194
<i>allow me to share with you
a lesson from my own life.</i>

426
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:38,862
<i>So it's guilt then,
I'm guessin'.</i>

427
00:20:38,904 --> 00:20:40,364
<i>Listen, Merle.</i>

428
00:20:40,405 --> 00:20:41,907
<i>I don't know you,</i>

429
00:20:41,949 --> 00:20:43,635
<i>or what you do or
plan to do with your life.</i>

430
00:20:43,659 --> 00:20:45,953
<i>But I know this.</i>

431
00:20:45,994 --> 00:20:48,413
<i>If you move me out
by using blackmail,</i>

432
00:20:48,455 --> 00:20:50,749
<i>you will be setting
yourself up for a life...</i>

433
00:20:53,794 --> 00:20:55,587
<i>well, a life quite like mine.</i>

434
00:20:57,339 --> 00:20:59,091
<i>One open to moments of</i>

435
00:20:59,132 --> 00:21:01,260
<i>deep regret and loss of face.</i>

436
00:21:01,301 --> 00:21:02,928
<i>Ah, the stern warning.</i>

437
00:21:02,970 --> 00:21:04,680
<i>The wisdom from down the road.</i>

438
00:21:04,721 --> 00:21:07,099
<i>I'm giving you the most</i>

439
00:21:08,141 --> 00:21:09,851
<i>perspective.</i>

440
00:21:09,893 --> 00:21:12,562
<i>You have the chance
to live a life of honor.</i>

441
00:21:12,604 --> 00:21:14,273
<i>To sleep through the night...</i>

442
00:21:14,314 --> 00:21:16,358
<i>You know what? I
already have a father</i>

443
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,069
<i>who sells me his bad
choices, his object lessons.</i>

444
00:21:19,111 --> 00:21:23,240
<i>You have a day
to resign gracefully.</i>

445
00:21:23,282 --> 00:21:26,326
<i>After that, I'm blasting
the picture out wide.</i>

446
00:21:35,836 --> 00:21:38,630
<i>I may have a vote-rigging
problem on my horizon.</i>

447
00:21:38,672 --> 00:21:40,799
<i>I assume you're not
teeing up a big, juicy case.</i>

448
00:21:40,841 --> 00:21:42,467
<i>Oh, in this scenario,</i>

449
00:21:42,509 --> 00:21:44,177
<i>I'm the golf ball.
Take a look at this.</i>

450
00:21:45,220 --> 00:21:49,099
<i>Hmm... Nice lighter. ST. Dupont?</i>

451
00:21:49,141 --> 00:21:51,601
<i>Let's talk about those
ballots I'm taking the lighter to.</i>

452
00:21:51,643 --> 00:21:53,103
<i>Hmm.</i>

453
00:21:53,145 --> 00:21:55,022
<i>Does the election-tampering
bother you?</i>

454
00:21:55,063 --> 00:21:57,417
<i>Nah, I'd have a bigger problem
if you weren't in it to win it.</i>

455
00:21:57,441 --> 00:21:59,985
<i>I was on the right side
of history, if that matters.</i>

456
00:22:00,027 --> 00:22:02,487
<i>Yeah, no, not much.</i>

457
00:22:04,281 --> 00:22:05,949
<i>Look, you were
practically a kid.</i>

458
00:22:05,991 --> 00:22:07,492
<i>I am guessing you
had your reasons</i>

459
00:22:07,534 --> 00:22:08,994
<i>or were just
practicing your moves.</i>

460
00:22:09,036 --> 00:22:11,621
<i>But now as a state
constitutional officer,</i>

461
00:22:11,663 --> 00:22:14,333
<i>your voters may feel
differently about this if it gets out.</i>

462
00:22:14,374 --> 00:22:16,084
<i>That's why I'm here.</i>

463
00:22:16,126 --> 00:22:18,003
<i>You want me to tee
up a big, juicy case,</i>

464
00:22:18,045 --> 00:22:20,255
<i>one that screams out
justice and fairness,</i>

465
00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:22,341
<i>and bumps your tee time
right off the front page.</i>

466
00:22:22,382 --> 00:22:24,134
<i>I do. Yes.</i>

467
00:22:24,176 --> 00:22:26,261
<i>As you'd say... "Let me work."</i>

468
00:22:31,391 --> 00:22:33,560
<i>I will need you to sign a
contract that states clearly</i>

469
00:22:33,602 --> 00:22:35,854
<i>you're exclusively working
here and nowhere else.</i>

470
00:22:35,896 --> 00:22:37,022
<i>And if I won't sign?</i>

471
00:22:37,064 --> 00:22:38,690
<i>I think maybe then you're gone.</i>

472
00:22:38,732 --> 00:22:40,251
<i>I can't have people here
who are less committed</i>

473
00:22:40,275 --> 00:22:41,735
<i>than contestants
on The Bachelor.</i>

474
00:22:41,777 --> 00:22:43,362
<i>There is no way you've even seen</i>

475
00:22:43,403 --> 00:22:44,756
<i>one episode of The
Bachelor. How can you...</i>

476
00:22:44,780 --> 00:22:46,156
<i>Sometimes it
helps me fall asleep.</i>

477
00:22:46,198 --> 00:22:47,366
<i>Their insipid self-confidence</i>

478
00:22:47,407 --> 00:22:48,909
<i>and beauty is a somnolent.</i>

479
00:22:48,950 --> 00:22:50,702
<i>But the point is, if
you work with me,</i>

480
00:22:50,744 --> 00:22:52,388
<i>I need your blood,
because that is what I give.</i>

481
00:22:52,412 --> 00:22:54,247
<i>I don't know.</i>

482
00:22:54,289 --> 00:22:56,583
<i>I want you here. You
think clearly. That's rare.</i>

483
00:22:56,625 --> 00:22:58,019
<i>But you can also
communicate clearly.</i>

484
00:22:58,043 --> 00:22:59,711
<i>The combo is more rare.</i>

485
00:22:59,753 --> 00:23:01,546
<i>And then there's
the ability to charm,</i>

486
00:23:01,588 --> 00:23:03,566
<i>get people on your side
without resorting to cheap tricks.</i>

487
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:06,885
<i>Plus, also, I can see
you struggling to remain</i>

488
00:23:06,927 --> 00:23:09,054
<i>a good person
despite the temptations.</i>

489
00:23:09,096 --> 00:23:11,014
<i>It would seem a
mistake to fire someone</i>

490
00:23:11,056 --> 00:23:13,308
<i>with those characteristics, no?</i>

491
00:23:13,350 --> 00:23:14,684
<i>I don't want to fire you.</i>

492
00:23:14,726 --> 00:23:16,228
<i>You want to own me.</i>

493
00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:18,647
<i>And that's not cool.</i>

494
00:23:19,773 --> 00:23:21,066
<i>You haven't answered me.</i>

495
00:23:21,108 --> 00:23:22,734
<i>Right.</i>

496
00:23:42,295 --> 00:23:43,880
<i>Oh...</i>

497
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,762
<i>Ya likes?</i>

498
00:23:50,804 --> 00:23:52,973
<i>I dug like Indiana
Jones in the Ark picture.</i>

499
00:23:53,014 --> 00:23:54,433
<i>I see that.</i>

500
00:23:54,474 --> 00:23:56,476
<i>These are potent.</i>

501
00:23:56,518 --> 00:23:58,937
<i>And could be
quite helpful to me.</i>

502
00:23:58,979 --> 00:24:00,605
<i>Yeah. I and everyone now</i>

503
00:24:00,647 --> 00:24:02,291
<i>not only understand
why you stole the election,</i>

504
00:24:02,315 --> 00:24:04,192
<i>but we're rooting
for you in retrospect.</i>

505
00:24:04,234 --> 00:24:06,903
<i>You had to take him out.
By any means necessary.</i>

506
00:24:06,945 --> 00:24:08,572
<i>If Yale's student body president</i>

507
00:24:08,613 --> 00:24:10,282
<i>was anti-divestment,</i>

508
00:24:10,323 --> 00:24:11,908
<i>picking the speakers
for every event,</i>

509
00:24:11,950 --> 00:24:13,618
<i>stacking the decks
at every meeting.</i>

510
00:24:13,660 --> 00:24:15,412
<i>His own quotes and
speeches say it all.</i>

511
00:24:15,454 --> 00:24:16,788
<i>How did you get these?</i>

512
00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:18,290
<i>That's a question I expect</i>

513
00:24:18,331 --> 00:24:19,958
<i>from my brother-in-law,
the garmento.</i>

514
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,793
<i>The point is, use this stuff.</i>

515
00:24:21,835 --> 00:24:23,438
<i>And then even if that
picture of you is released,</i>

516
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:24,796
<i>the story will be...</i>

517
00:24:24,838 --> 00:24:26,631
<i>you were fighting
institutionalized racism</i>

518
00:24:26,673 --> 00:24:28,383
<i>and slaying a dragon.</i>

519
00:24:28,425 --> 00:24:29,968
<i>A dragon who currently serves</i>

520
00:24:30,010 --> 00:24:32,053
<i>as the beloved
university chaplain.</i>

521
00:24:34,014 --> 00:24:36,808
<i>I looked him up, too.
A lifetime of service.</i>

522
00:24:36,850 --> 00:24:38,810
<i>So he turned out
to be a good guy</i>

523
00:24:38,852 --> 00:24:40,312
<i>because you saved him.</i>

524
00:24:44,232 --> 00:24:45,817
<i>Hey, boss.</i>

525
00:24:45,859 --> 00:24:47,259
<i>Uh, attorney-client
or broheim time?</i>

526
00:24:48,653 --> 00:24:49,821
<i>[Ira] Just signing off.</i>

527
00:24:49,863 --> 00:24:50,989
<i>Thank you.</i>

528
00:24:52,032 --> 00:24:53,116
<i>What's up, Karl?</i>

529
00:24:53,158 --> 00:24:54,326
<i>Got a hit.</i>

530
00:24:54,367 --> 00:24:56,161
<i>Prisoner named Aman Dekel.</i>

531
00:24:56,203 --> 00:24:58,163
<i>He matches a certain
profile you need.</i>

532
00:24:58,205 --> 00:24:59,998
<i>Clean bill of health
on this one, too.</i>

533
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,583
<i>Not a drinker.</i>

534
00:25:01,625 --> 00:25:03,960
<i>Religious man who was
incarcerated for crimes</i>

535
00:25:04,002 --> 00:25:05,962
<i>in the name of his maker.</i>

536
00:25:06,004 --> 00:25:08,757
<i>Looney. But the
required pristine kidneys.</i>

537
00:25:08,798 --> 00:25:10,634
<i>Outstanding. You make contact?</i>

538
00:25:10,675 --> 00:25:12,886
<i>I did. He's expecting
you tomorrow.</i>

539
00:25:12,928 --> 00:25:16,014
<i>He will sacrifice the bean
for payment to be negotiated</i>

540
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:18,308
<i>and the ability to
move out of state</i>

541
00:25:18,350 --> 00:25:20,519
<i>to be with his family as
soon as he's released.</i>

542
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,521
<i>That can be arranged.</i>

543
00:25:24,147 --> 00:25:25,899
<i>Ah, the things we do
for those we love huh?</i>

544
00:25:37,494 --> 00:25:39,162
<i>Thank you very much.</i>

545
00:25:43,083 --> 00:25:45,001
<i>Doctor Gilbert.</i>

546
00:25:45,043 --> 00:25:48,129
<i>I know what you're doing here
and who you hoped to meet,</i>

547
00:25:48,171 --> 00:25:52,092
<i>but I'm afraid Aman Dekel
isn't gonna make it today.</i>

548
00:25:52,133 --> 00:25:54,886
<i>And neither are the
beautiful glomeruli</i>

549
00:25:54,928 --> 00:25:56,555
<i>in his kidneys.</i>

550
00:25:56,596 --> 00:25:59,558
<i>- Is that so?
- When you put me in here,</i>

551
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:02,852
<i>I became more powerful than
you could ever have imagined.</i>

552
00:26:04,646 --> 00:26:07,482
<i>Well, less powerful
than, say, any free man.</i>

553
00:26:07,524 --> 00:26:10,860
<i>From one perspective,
but from another...</i>

554
00:26:10,902 --> 00:26:13,280
<i>the residents
of this institution</i>

555
00:26:13,321 --> 00:26:15,365
<i>come to me with
their afflictions.</i>

556
00:26:15,407 --> 00:26:17,117
<i>And I give them
better treatment than</i>

557
00:26:17,158 --> 00:26:19,160
<i>the hacks in the infirmary.</i>

558
00:26:19,202 --> 00:26:21,371
<i>And that's why they were happy</i>

559
00:26:21,413 --> 00:26:24,332
<i>to come to me
and to lure you in.</i>

560
00:26:24,374 --> 00:26:28,420
<i>And why you will never
get what you're lookin' for.</i>

561
00:26:28,461 --> 00:26:30,005
<i>It's not me,</i>

562
00:26:30,046 --> 00:26:32,257
<i>but my father that
you're doing this to.</i>

563
00:26:32,299 --> 00:26:36,177
<i>All the same. Organ
failure is beastly.</i>

564
00:26:36,219 --> 00:26:38,430
<i>Took my own mom.</i>

565
00:26:38,471 --> 00:26:40,765
<i>We're talking total
physiologic breakdown.</i>

566
00:26:40,807 --> 00:26:42,225
<i>Incontinence.</i>

567
00:26:42,267 --> 00:26:43,703
<i>Your dad will be
wishing for incontinence,</i>

568
00:26:43,727 --> 00:26:45,353
<i>because urine output will cease</i>

569
00:26:45,395 --> 00:26:47,188
<i>and then the swelling comes...</i>

570
00:26:47,230 --> 00:26:49,608
<i>the feet, the legs and the...</i>

571
00:26:49,649 --> 00:26:51,276
<i>the pain that that brings...</i>

572
00:26:51,318 --> 00:26:53,903
<i>it's pain that
makes you pass out</i>

573
00:26:53,945 --> 00:26:57,949
<i>and wish you never wake
up. Vomiting, seizures.</i>

574
00:26:57,991 --> 00:26:59,951
<i>Whoo-hoo.</i>

575
00:26:59,993 --> 00:27:02,203
<i>Oy.</i>

576
00:27:02,245 --> 00:27:05,790
<i>You've really gotten away
from that whole do no harm deal.</i>

577
00:27:05,832 --> 00:27:07,584
<i>It's what happens
when your ideals</i>

578
00:27:07,626 --> 00:27:09,669
<i>get turned inside out.</i>

579
00:27:11,588 --> 00:27:14,215
<i>You know well what
I'm talking about.</i>

580
00:27:14,257 --> 00:27:15,467
<i>Guard!</i>

581
00:27:22,182 --> 00:27:23,600
<i>How's your sister, Jerry?</i>

582
00:27:23,642 --> 00:27:25,977
<i>Much better, thanks.</i>

583
00:27:26,019 --> 00:27:29,314
<i>It's a tricky medical condition
that was misdiagnosed.</i>

584
00:27:29,356 --> 00:27:30,649
<i>Ovarian cysts.</i>

585
00:27:30,690 --> 00:27:32,442
<i>They thought it was cancer.</i>

586
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:34,444
<i>They would've gutted her.</i>

587
00:27:34,486 --> 00:27:37,489
<i>You were right about getting
a second opinion downstate.</i>

588
00:27:37,530 --> 00:27:38,948
<i>You need anything?</i>

589
00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:41,242
<i>Hmm. I'd love a LaCroix.</i>

590
00:27:41,284 --> 00:27:43,912
<i>And an escort for
the Attorney General.</i>

591
00:27:43,953 --> 00:27:46,081
<i>He's leaving.</i>

592
00:27:46,122 --> 00:27:47,165
<i>Come on. Let's go.</i>

593
00:27:55,382 --> 00:27:59,844
<i>You know, I'm not visiting
any more prisons anytime soon.</i>

594
00:27:59,886 --> 00:28:02,514
<i>It's always a punch
in the fucking face.</i>

595
00:28:13,608 --> 00:28:15,402
<i>- Thanks, Peach.
- Mm-hmm.</i>

596
00:28:40,051 --> 00:28:41,803
<i>You got my smoke signal.</i>

597
00:28:41,845 --> 00:28:46,349
<i>I did. Thanks for the
trip down memory lane.</i>

598
00:28:46,391 --> 00:28:48,560
<i>It was nicer to relive
than it was to live.</i>

599
00:28:51,896 --> 00:28:53,440
<i>What do you want?</i>

600
00:28:55,734 --> 00:28:56,735
<i>This.</i>

601
00:29:03,241 --> 00:29:05,076
<i>Phew. Healthcare proxy?</i>

602
00:29:06,661 --> 00:29:07,787
<i>Why me?</i>

603
00:29:07,829 --> 00:29:09,456
<i>Because Roxanne's too young.</i>

604
00:29:09,497 --> 00:29:10,999
<i>She'll never let me go.</i>

605
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,600
<i>She will keep the
machines on for years,</i>

606
00:29:12,625 --> 00:29:14,711
<i>hoping for a miracle
while I crap myself</i>

607
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,880
<i>and the money runs out.</i>

608
00:29:16,921 --> 00:29:18,506
<i>And Chuck, he might
pull the plug when</i>

609
00:29:18,548 --> 00:29:20,133
<i>I'm in the middle of a sentence.</i>

610
00:29:20,175 --> 00:29:22,177
<i>He's doing everything
he can to help you.</i>

611
00:29:22,218 --> 00:29:24,345
<i>Sure, he is.</i>

612
00:29:24,387 --> 00:29:27,724
<i>But you, you're the one
with liquid silver in her veins,</i>

613
00:29:27,766 --> 00:29:29,642
<i>the cool-headed killer.</i>

614
00:29:29,684 --> 00:29:32,937
<i>You'll do the right
thing at the right time.</i>

615
00:29:32,979 --> 00:29:36,566
<i>At the "right time,"
you'll be comatose,</i>

616
00:29:36,608 --> 00:29:38,318
<i>completely incommunicative,</i>

617
00:29:38,359 --> 00:29:39,920
<i>and you want me to
come in waving this around</i>

618
00:29:39,944 --> 00:29:41,404
<i>in front of your
young wife and son?</i>

619
00:29:41,446 --> 00:29:42,906
<i>It'll be a total shit show.</i>

620
00:29:42,947 --> 00:29:44,199
<i>That's why I'm asking you.</i>

621
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:48,119
<i>No, I... I pray, to
the extent that I pray,</i>

622
00:29:48,161 --> 00:29:50,288
<i>that these decisions
never need be made.</i>

623
00:29:51,790 --> 00:29:52,999
<i>But...</i>

624
00:29:55,460 --> 00:29:59,923
<i>if the worst comes
to pass, Wendy...</i>

625
00:29:59,964 --> 00:30:02,467
<i>if I hit the fucking wall</i>

626
00:30:02,509 --> 00:30:04,761
<i>and become a full gomer,</i>

627
00:30:04,803 --> 00:30:10,141
<i>I need you to be clear-eyed
and punch my ticket.</i>

628
00:30:15,188 --> 00:30:16,481
<i>Can I count on you?</i>

629
00:30:19,484 --> 00:30:20,527
<i>Sure, Dad.</i>

630
00:30:22,403 --> 00:30:24,614
<i>If it comes to it,
I'll put you down.</i>

631
00:30:28,034 --> 00:30:29,285
<i>That's a good girl.</i>

632
00:30:38,586 --> 00:30:40,672
<i>I see.</i>

633
00:30:40,713 --> 00:30:42,632
<i>While I've been out
scouring the countryside</i>

634
00:30:42,674 --> 00:30:44,717
<i>trying to save your life,</i>

635
00:30:44,759 --> 00:30:48,513
<i>you put your trust
in someone else.</i>

636
00:30:48,555 --> 00:30:50,223
<i>Oh, I've been doing
what needs to be done.</i>

637
00:30:50,265 --> 00:30:52,267
<i>Or are you here to tell me</i>

638
00:30:52,308 --> 00:30:55,228
<i>that you found me a
donor and it isn't necessary?</i>

639
00:30:58,731 --> 00:31:00,108
<i>No.</i>

640
00:31:00,149 --> 00:31:02,193
<i>Unfortunately, it is.</i>

641
00:31:02,235 --> 00:31:04,529
<i>I'll leave you two to
settle your business.</i>

642
00:31:25,091 --> 00:31:26,551
<i>Scooter's on his way up.</i>

643
00:31:26,593 --> 00:31:28,511
<i>Heh. Longest
elevator ride of his life.</i>

644
00:31:28,553 --> 00:31:30,513
<i>I knew he was gonna cave.</i>

645
00:31:30,555 --> 00:31:32,795
<i>Saw it in his eyes that he'd
do anything to save himself.</i>

646
00:31:43,776 --> 00:31:46,779
<i>You look surprised.
Was I not invited?</i>

647
00:31:51,242 --> 00:31:52,952
<i>I felt, in a way, that I was.</i>

648
00:31:52,994 --> 00:31:54,871
<i>Or at least that my
invitation was implied.</i>

649
00:31:56,456 --> 00:31:58,166
<i>Love this.</i>

650
00:31:58,207 --> 00:32:02,837
<i>Raw concrete. Very wabi-sabi.</i>

651
00:32:02,879 --> 00:32:05,006
<i>You have Rande
Gerber decorate for ya?</i>

652
00:32:07,300 --> 00:32:09,010
<i>Threw yourself at
the merciful hem</i>

653
00:32:09,052 --> 00:32:10,762
<i>of the Shogun skirts?</i>

654
00:32:10,803 --> 00:32:13,097
<i>Not exactly. He was
already well aware of the bets.</i>

655
00:32:13,139 --> 00:32:14,724
<i>Because they were his.</i>

656
00:32:14,766 --> 00:32:16,517
<i>Too bad. Ambassador with</i>

657
00:32:16,559 --> 00:32:18,061
<i>a gambling problem's a no-go.</i>

658
00:32:18,102 --> 00:32:20,271
<i>No problem here.</i>

659
00:32:20,313 --> 00:32:23,232
<i>I have a better winning
percentage than the Vegas books.</i>

660
00:32:23,274 --> 00:32:25,610
<i>Plus, sports betting is
now legal in this state.</i>

661
00:32:25,652 --> 00:32:27,737
<i>Those runners you saw
placed the action for me</i>

662
00:32:27,779 --> 00:32:29,614
<i>at the sports books
at upstate casinos.</i>

663
00:32:29,656 --> 00:32:31,133
<i>Because that much
money, with my profile,</i>

664
00:32:31,157 --> 00:32:32,784
<i>would have moved the lines.</i>

665
00:32:32,825 --> 00:32:34,786
<i>Yes. You had your
man put 'em down</i>

666
00:32:34,827 --> 00:32:36,120
<i>to get you a better price.</i>

667
00:32:36,162 --> 00:32:37,789
<i>Protect and serve.</i>

668
00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:39,475
<i>Don't worry, though,
my records are orderly.</i>

669
00:32:39,499 --> 00:32:41,459
<i>We have it all documented
in exquisite detail.</i>

670
00:32:41,501 --> 00:32:43,169
<i>Taxes paid on all the profits.</i>

671
00:32:43,211 --> 00:32:44,754
<i>And the Danes are
a sporting bunch.</i>

672
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:46,589
<i>They love a good wager.</i>

673
00:32:50,176 --> 00:32:52,136
<i>You made a mistake
coming here, Mike.</i>

674
00:32:52,178 --> 00:32:54,097
<i>I smoked you out.</i>

675
00:32:54,138 --> 00:32:56,015
<i>You could have had me
wasting my time on this</i>

676
00:32:56,057 --> 00:32:58,101
<i>until your post was clinched.</i>

677
00:32:58,142 --> 00:33:00,478
<i>But now I know which
direction I need to go in.</i>

678
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,899
<i>Without meaning to, you
guys have just revealed it to me.</i>

679
00:33:04,941 --> 00:33:06,943
<i>You're trying to
put a read on me?</i>

680
00:33:06,985 --> 00:33:09,153
<i>Steady hands, no
micro-expressions,</i>

681
00:33:09,195 --> 00:33:10,947
<i>nothing there.</i>

682
00:33:10,989 --> 00:33:13,175
<i>So you can look as long and
hard as you want at my life,</i>

683
00:33:13,199 --> 00:33:14,993
<i>past or present.</i>

684
00:33:15,034 --> 00:33:16,911
<i>There's nothing there
for you to chew on.</i>

685
00:33:16,953 --> 00:33:18,121
<i>You sure?</i>

686
00:33:18,162 --> 00:33:19,914
<i>When a man's bluffing,</i>

687
00:33:19,956 --> 00:33:22,000
<i>he looks a guy
right in the eyes.</i>

688
00:33:22,041 --> 00:33:23,626
<i>I look people in the eye because</i>

689
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:25,169
<i>I believe in myself.</i>

690
00:33:25,211 --> 00:33:27,255
<i>And I like to connect with them.</i>

691
00:33:27,296 --> 00:33:29,632
<i>Which is one of the things
I love about the Danes,</i>

692
00:33:29,674 --> 00:33:31,342
<i>their warmth.</i>

693
00:33:31,384 --> 00:33:33,803
<i>They have the most
delightful demeanor</i>

694
00:33:33,845 --> 00:33:35,847
<i>and a wonderful word
to describe their state</i>

695
00:33:35,888 --> 00:33:37,849
<i>of cozy well-being.</i>

696
00:33:39,017 --> 00:33:40,685
<i>Hygge.</i>

697
00:33:40,727 --> 00:33:43,688
<i>It's the contentment of
feeling warm, being warm.</i>

698
00:33:43,730 --> 00:33:45,857
<i>Danes are hygge-like.</i>

699
00:33:45,898 --> 00:33:47,751
<i>And in the time I will be
spending in their midst,</i>

700
00:33:47,775 --> 00:33:50,194
<i>I plan to embrace
their way of life.</i>

701
00:33:50,236 --> 00:33:54,240
<i>While you will remain
here... Cold, lonely,</i>

702
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:57,076
<i>self-obsessed,</i>

703
00:33:57,118 --> 00:33:59,579
<i>and most assuredly
not hygge-like.</i>

704
00:34:09,172 --> 00:34:10,381
<i>Fuck.</i>

705
00:34:12,550 --> 00:34:14,052
<i>I didn't anticipate the carom.</i>

706
00:34:14,093 --> 00:34:15,636
<i>But what did you pick up on him?</i>

707
00:34:15,678 --> 00:34:18,014
<i>Not a goddamn thing.
I was fucking bluffing.</i>

708
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:20,224
<i>Next time you
bring me something,</i>

709
00:34:20,266 --> 00:34:22,060
<i>make sure it's something.</i>

710
00:34:22,101 --> 00:34:24,020
<i>You'll always be my guy, Wags.</i>

711
00:34:24,062 --> 00:34:27,106
<i>But don't make me have to get
another guy that you report to.</i>

712
00:34:32,570 --> 00:34:34,655
<i>Now, I said something
to this kid, Merle.</i>

713
00:34:34,697 --> 00:34:36,657
<i>About the cost of these actions.</i>

714
00:34:38,785 --> 00:34:41,412
<i>And although I was merely
trying to influence him...</i>

715
00:34:41,454 --> 00:34:44,874
<i>Fuck, Ira, I was
him at law school.</i>

716
00:34:44,916 --> 00:34:47,752
<i>And if someone, anyone
had tried to warn me off</i>

717
00:34:47,794 --> 00:34:49,921
<i>becoming who I
did, I'd have listened.</i>

718
00:34:49,962 --> 00:34:52,965
<i>I was right there with you, and
I know exactly who you were,</i>

719
00:34:53,007 --> 00:34:55,551
<i>the smartest and most
rigorous student in our class.</i>

720
00:34:55,593 --> 00:34:57,762
<i>The only one who ever
doubted you was you, man.</i>

721
00:34:57,804 --> 00:34:59,931
<i>And y-you wouldn't have listened</i>

722
00:34:59,972 --> 00:35:01,641
<i>to any kind of warning</i>

723
00:35:01,682 --> 00:35:04,018
<i>or bromide from anyone,
especially not some...</i>

724
00:35:04,060 --> 00:35:05,686
<i>Some grizzled old pol?</i>

725
00:35:05,728 --> 00:35:07,563
<i>Yeah, something like that.</i>

726
00:35:07,605 --> 00:35:12,151
<i>You know, I always figured
I'd keep growing in a real way.</i>

727
00:35:12,193 --> 00:35:14,821
<i>That the worst parts of
me would recede over time,</i>

728
00:35:14,862 --> 00:35:18,241
<i>that I'd be able to will
myself forward to the better.</i>

729
00:35:18,282 --> 00:35:20,118
<i>Oh, instead?</i>

730
00:35:20,159 --> 00:35:22,954
<i>As 50 looms, you come to
see that those sub-optimal parts,</i>

731
00:35:22,995 --> 00:35:26,415
<i>the bugs, as it were...
They aren't bugs.</i>

732
00:35:26,457 --> 00:35:28,376
<i>No. Turns out, they are you.</i>

733
00:35:28,417 --> 00:35:30,128
<i>Hmm. Might not be an age thing.</i>

734
00:35:30,169 --> 00:35:31,730
<i>From the moment our
parents look at us a certain way,</i>

735
00:35:31,754 --> 00:35:35,800
<i>it might all be set
in fucking stone.</i>

736
00:35:35,842 --> 00:35:38,136
<i>You gotta deploy the
materials I gave you.</i>

737
00:35:40,471 --> 00:35:41,639
<i>Nope.</i>

738
00:35:43,099 --> 00:35:45,101
<i>I'm shredding these printouts.</i>

739
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:47,395
<i>And I need you to destroy
the original package</i>

740
00:35:47,436 --> 00:35:48,980
<i>you put together.</i>

741
00:35:49,021 --> 00:35:50,773
<i>I won't.</i>

742
00:35:50,815 --> 00:35:52,358
<i>And neither will you.</i>

743
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,986
<i>I'm glad to know
that you've changed.</i>

744
00:35:55,027 --> 00:35:56,696
<i>In your heart.</i>

745
00:35:56,737 --> 00:35:58,614
<i>But just... what if you
didn't tell your heart</i>

746
00:35:58,656 --> 00:36:01,159
<i>what you were doing yet and
first you got out of this jam?</i>

747
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,994
<i>This kid is coming for you.</i>

748
00:36:03,035 --> 00:36:06,831
<i>If he had a pistol, would
you let him shoot you?</i>

749
00:36:06,873 --> 00:36:08,624
<i>No, you'd defend yourself</i>

750
00:36:08,666 --> 00:36:11,002
<i>and then go about making amends.</i>

751
00:36:11,043 --> 00:36:13,212
<i>Once you knew you
were still breathing.</i>

752
00:36:14,338 --> 00:36:15,840
<i>Do the same here.</i>

753
00:36:17,884 --> 00:36:19,677
<i>I know you better
than you know yourself.</i>

754
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,597
<i>And I know what you need.</i>

755
00:36:22,638 --> 00:36:24,182
<i>So...</i>

756
00:36:24,223 --> 00:36:26,350
<i>you take that and do
the thing you have to.</i>

757
00:36:38,070 --> 00:36:39,197
<i>Yes?</i>

758
00:36:41,324 --> 00:36:43,159
<i>What's he doing here?</i>

759
00:36:43,201 --> 00:36:45,369
<i>He's part of it.</i>

760
00:36:45,411 --> 00:36:46,787
<i>Part of?</i>

761
00:36:46,829 --> 00:36:47,829
<i>Such a thing.</i>

762
00:36:49,498 --> 00:36:51,042
<i>What is?</i>

763
00:36:51,083 --> 00:36:53,211
<i>A violation of this scope,</i>

764
00:36:53,252 --> 00:36:55,171
<i>given your history?</i>

765
00:36:55,213 --> 00:36:57,882
<i>And to think I wouldn't have a
system in place to monitor you,</i>

766
00:36:57,924 --> 00:36:59,592
<i>given said history.</i>

767
00:36:59,634 --> 00:37:01,302
<i>That's downright insulting.</i>

768
00:37:02,470 --> 00:37:04,305
<i>Such a thing.</i>

769
00:37:04,347 --> 00:37:06,015
<i>All right. That's
quite enough of that.</i>

770
00:37:06,057 --> 00:37:07,975
<i>Though, incredibly, he is right.</i>

771
00:37:08,017 --> 00:37:10,228
<i>Why are you running
a search through</i>

772
00:37:10,269 --> 00:37:12,230
<i>the employees' medical records?</i>

773
00:37:15,358 --> 00:37:17,276
<i>Go.</i>

774
00:37:17,318 --> 00:37:19,320
<i>Traditionally, the
scent hound gets</i>

775
00:37:19,362 --> 00:37:22,365
<i>to tear at the
quarry at hunt's end.</i>

776
00:37:22,406 --> 00:37:24,700
<i>Out.</i>

777
00:37:24,742 --> 00:37:27,411
<i>It's nothing personal.
Just business.</i>

778
00:37:27,453 --> 00:37:29,247
<i>I always liked you.</i>

779
00:37:36,212 --> 00:37:37,588
<i>It's Chuck's father.</i>

780
00:37:37,630 --> 00:37:39,924
<i>He's gonna die unless
he gets a kidney.</i>

781
00:37:39,966 --> 00:37:41,610
<i>- So I thought I...
- You should have come to me.</i>

782
00:37:41,634 --> 00:37:43,094
<i>Would you have let
me run the search?</i>

783
00:37:43,135 --> 00:37:45,763
<i>No. But I'd have
saved you from that.</i>

784
00:37:45,805 --> 00:37:47,282
<i>We haven't been
able to save each other</i>

785
00:37:47,306 --> 00:37:48,766
<i>from much lately.</i>

786
00:37:49,892 --> 00:37:53,271
<i>Since you're here, let me try.</i>

787
00:37:53,312 --> 00:37:54,855
<i>Mike Prince.</i>

788
00:37:54,897 --> 00:37:56,274
<i>Let it go.</i>

789
00:37:56,315 --> 00:37:57,900
<i>I sat with him, with Taylor.</i>

790
00:37:57,942 --> 00:37:59,277
<i>He's not out to hurt you.</i>

791
00:37:59,318 --> 00:38:01,445
<i>If he wasn't before, he is now.</i>

792
00:38:01,487 --> 00:38:03,072
<i>Because he knows my intentions.</i>

793
00:38:03,114 --> 00:38:05,366
<i>Let it go anyway. In the past,</i>

794
00:38:05,408 --> 00:38:07,368
<i>when I have nudged, counseled,</i>

795
00:38:07,410 --> 00:38:09,578
<i>warned you to lay off
against other opponents,</i>

796
00:38:09,620 --> 00:38:11,414
<i>it's because you
were beating yourself.</i>

797
00:38:11,455 --> 00:38:13,165
<i>Being rash, lacking focus,</i>

798
00:38:13,207 --> 00:38:14,875
<i>becoming consumed
by your own rage.</i>

799
00:38:14,917 --> 00:38:16,669
<i>But in this case,
it's something else.</i>

800
00:38:16,711 --> 00:38:18,462
<i>He'll likely beat you.</i>

801
00:38:18,504 --> 00:38:19,755
<i>I beat him in Yonkers.</i>

802
00:38:19,797 --> 00:38:21,215
<i>Did you?</i>

803
00:38:21,257 --> 00:38:22,758
<i>Or did he kinda let
you have that one?</i>

804
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,094
<i>This is a strange
fucking pep talk, Wend.</i>

805
00:38:25,136 --> 00:38:26,637
<i>Because I'm not giving you one.</i>

806
00:38:28,639 --> 00:38:30,450
<i>Do you know how many
sports movies I've watched</i>

807
00:38:30,474 --> 00:38:32,226
<i>over the last 20
years? All of them.</i>

808
00:38:32,268 --> 00:38:34,437
<i>So believe me, I
know how to do 'em.</i>

809
00:38:34,478 --> 00:38:38,441
<i>And I have the right
poll for this moment.</i>

810
00:38:38,482 --> 00:38:42,320
<i>You think he's Tin Cup
McAvoy, and you're Don Johnson,</i>

811
00:38:42,361 --> 00:38:44,655
<i>and you'll let the quirk in
his character defeat him,</i>

812
00:38:44,697 --> 00:38:46,490
<i>but it might just be
the other way around.</i>

813
00:38:46,532 --> 00:38:48,409
<i>Not gonna keep
putting balls in the drink.</i>

814
00:38:48,451 --> 00:38:50,578
<i>That's what Roy thought, too.</i>

815
00:38:50,619 --> 00:38:52,496
<i>But once guys like
you and him commit,</i>

816
00:38:52,538 --> 00:38:54,433
<i>you'll keep hitting until
there are no more Pro V-Ones</i>

817
00:38:54,457 --> 00:38:56,000
<i>- left in your golf bag.
- Right.</i>

818
00:38:56,042 --> 00:38:57,626
<i>So what do you
suggest I do instead?</i>

819
00:38:57,668 --> 00:38:59,670
<i>Figure out who or what</i>

820
00:38:59,712 --> 00:39:01,756
<i>from your past
you're still furious at,</i>

821
00:39:01,797 --> 00:39:03,358
<i>because that's where it
always really comes from,</i>

822
00:39:03,382 --> 00:39:07,011
<i>and go hit that. Or
finally decide to let it go.</i>

823
00:39:08,512 --> 00:39:10,681
<i>The past.</i>

824
00:39:10,723 --> 00:39:11,849
<i>You're right.</i>

825
00:39:13,059 --> 00:39:15,019
<i>It's always the fucking past.</i>

826
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,023
<i>Wags. In here, please.</i>

827
00:39:29,950 --> 00:39:32,745
<i>Axe Capital!</i>

828
00:39:32,787 --> 00:39:34,538
<i>We've been looking
to hit all of Prince's</i>

829
00:39:34,580 --> 00:39:36,290
<i>current holdings and
businesses, right?</i>

830
00:39:36,332 --> 00:39:37,917
<i>As was ordered. To create a dip</i>

831
00:39:37,958 --> 00:39:38,977
<i>in the value of his portfolio</i>

832
00:39:39,001 --> 00:39:39,960
<i>before the big feature</i>

833
00:39:40,002 --> 00:39:41,754
<i>on him airs on The Hour.</i>

834
00:39:41,796 --> 00:39:44,548
<i>Axe figured out we're
aiming at the wrong target.</i>

835
00:39:44,590 --> 00:39:46,217
<i>We were with Prince.
And Prince said,</i>

836
00:39:46,258 --> 00:39:48,153
<i>"You can look as long and
hard as you want in my life,"</i>

837
00:39:48,177 --> 00:39:49,887
<i>past and present.</i>

838
00:39:49,929 --> 00:39:51,972
<i>"There's nothing there
for you to chew on."</i>

839
00:39:52,014 --> 00:39:55,559
<i>But no one said
anything about his past.</i>

840
00:39:55,601 --> 00:39:57,144
<i>Axe picked up on his tell.</i>

841
00:39:57,186 --> 00:39:58,896
<i>He's got a secret.</i>

842
00:40:00,106 --> 00:40:02,149
<i>Fucking find it.</i>

843
00:40:03,692 --> 00:40:05,986
<i>Hey. You know how
we had feelers out</i>

844
00:40:06,028 --> 00:40:07,255
<i>on a half-dozen of
those shady companies</i>

845
00:40:07,279 --> 00:40:09,031
<i>crying out for public execution?</i>

846
00:40:09,073 --> 00:40:11,009
<i>- Yeah, Axe filled me in.
- We're like a fishing boat</i>

847
00:40:11,033 --> 00:40:13,077
<i>with a bunch of
lines over the side.</i>

848
00:40:13,119 --> 00:40:14,245
<i>And we got a tug.</i>

849
00:40:14,286 --> 00:40:15,663
<i>It's called Plaintif-Full.</i>

850
00:40:15,704 --> 00:40:17,248
<i>Good.</i>

851
00:40:17,289 --> 00:40:19,291
<i>Chum the local press.
Wait for another bite,</i>

852
00:40:19,333 --> 00:40:20,668
<i>then set the fucking hook.</i>

853
00:40:28,968 --> 00:40:30,136
<i>Dean Walker is here.</i>

854
00:40:31,429 --> 00:40:32,471
<i>I imagine she is.</i>

855
00:40:39,478 --> 00:40:41,105
<i>Hm.</i>

856
00:40:41,147 --> 00:40:43,315
<i>I had a visit from a young
man named Merle Howard</i>

857
00:40:43,357 --> 00:40:45,776
<i>- a few hours ago.
- I see.</i>

858
00:40:45,818 --> 00:40:47,445
<i>He wanted to throw
himself on the mercy</i>

859
00:40:47,486 --> 00:40:49,447
<i>of the court, so to speak.</i>

860
00:40:49,488 --> 00:40:51,449
<i>He told me of his
plans to blackmail you,</i>

861
00:40:51,490 --> 00:40:54,285
<i>get you ousted, and how
you talked him out of it.</i>

862
00:40:54,326 --> 00:40:57,163
<i>He literally said
he'd misjudged you</i>

863
00:40:57,204 --> 00:40:58,998
<i>and wanted to
report himself to me</i>

864
00:40:59,039 --> 00:41:00,583
<i>for an honor code violation.</i>

865
00:41:02,001 --> 00:41:03,586
<i>I forgave him, of course.</i>

866
00:41:03,627 --> 00:41:05,629
<i>And he asked that I'd
drop the entire matter.</i>

867
00:41:05,671 --> 00:41:07,131
<i>- Really?
- Mm-hmm.</i>

868
00:41:08,340 --> 00:41:09,800
<i>So I did some good. Ha!</i>

869
00:41:10,843 --> 00:41:12,470
<i>Well, that is wonderful news.</i>

870
00:41:12,511 --> 00:41:14,972
<i>Yet we live in an age
that doesn't give me</i>

871
00:41:15,014 --> 00:41:18,893
<i>that opportunity to let it go.</i>

872
00:41:18,934 --> 00:41:20,769
<i>If a student knows
something and tells me,</i>

873
00:41:20,811 --> 00:41:22,730
<i>I have no choice
but to investigate it.</i>

874
00:41:22,771 --> 00:41:24,857
<i>That picture of you, Chuck...</i>

875
00:41:24,899 --> 00:41:28,277
<i>what it says about the whole
foundation of your career.</i>

876
00:41:28,319 --> 00:41:30,112
<i>You have to know
there was context.</i>

877
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:33,491
<i>I was part of a movement</i>

878
00:41:33,532 --> 00:41:35,993
<i>to push the Yale Corporation
to divest holdings...</i>

879
00:41:36,035 --> 00:41:38,996
<i>You stole an election
for social justice?</i>

880
00:41:39,038 --> 00:41:41,832
<i>Divestment itself
was in the balance?</i>

881
00:41:41,874 --> 00:41:43,167
<i>I could make that case.</i>

882
00:41:43,209 --> 00:41:44,668
<i>Against the Robertson
Wycoff I know?</i>

883
00:41:44,710 --> 00:41:46,170
<i>Sounds like a reach.</i>

884
00:41:46,212 --> 00:41:47,963
<i>Here's your
window. Closing fast.</i>

885
00:42:08,901 --> 00:42:10,903
<i>I guess I thought I
could make a difference</i>

886
00:42:12,363 --> 00:42:13,656
<i>by winning that election.</i>

887
00:42:13,697 --> 00:42:15,824
<i>So you have.</i>

888
00:42:15,866 --> 00:42:18,202
<i>And I'm sure that picture
of you will never come out.</i>

889
00:42:18,244 --> 00:42:21,330
<i>Merle kept it. Said
he was destroying it.</i>

890
00:42:21,372 --> 00:42:23,290
<i>Well, then is there a
way we can consider</i>

891
00:42:23,332 --> 00:42:24,542
<i>this a closed matter?</i>

892
00:42:24,583 --> 00:42:26,460
<i>Not quite.</i>

893
00:42:26,502 --> 00:42:28,462
<i>That's not the only
thing Merle told me.</i>

894
00:42:28,504 --> 00:42:31,423
<i>He also mentioned a student
law clinic you put together.</i>

895
00:42:31,465 --> 00:42:33,551
<i>He'd made his peace
with it. But from where I sit,</i>

896
00:42:33,592 --> 00:42:35,177
<i>it sounds like a
goddamn hit squad.</i>

897
00:42:35,219 --> 00:42:36,720
<i>I see.</i>

898
00:42:36,762 --> 00:42:38,681
<i>Yale Law School
is the nation's finest</i>

899
00:42:38,722 --> 00:42:41,016
<i>because we refuse to
compromise on our principles.</i>

900
00:42:41,058 --> 00:42:43,352
<i>Even if the money came
from outside sources,</i>

901
00:42:43,394 --> 00:42:45,062
<i>even if it was voluntary.</i>

902
00:42:45,104 --> 00:42:47,231
<i>This is against school policy</i>

903
00:42:47,273 --> 00:42:48,691
<i>and non-fucking-negotiable.</i>

904
00:42:51,235 --> 00:42:53,195
<i>Then I step down.</i>

905
00:42:53,237 --> 00:42:55,573
<i>And you redirect
the money funding</i>

906
00:42:55,614 --> 00:42:56,758
<i>the operation
back to my office...</i>

907
00:42:56,782 --> 00:42:58,701
<i>No. We'll keep the bestowal.</i>

908
00:42:58,742 --> 00:43:00,411
<i>And use it for the
good and fair purpose</i>

909
00:43:00,452 --> 00:43:01,912
<i>for which it was
meant to be used.</i>

910
00:43:01,954 --> 00:43:04,081
<i>But I accept your resignation</i>

911
00:43:04,123 --> 00:43:05,624
<i>and I thank you for it.</i>

912
00:43:08,711 --> 00:43:10,087
<i>You did do a good thing.</i>

913
00:43:10,129 --> 00:43:11,505
<i>Two, really.</i>

914
00:43:11,547 --> 00:43:13,340
<i>Merle Howard has
a chance to be a</i>

915
00:43:13,382 --> 00:43:15,217
<i>productive member of society.</i>

916
00:43:15,259 --> 00:43:18,804
<i>And Yale is now protected
from a mentor like you.</i>

917
00:43:32,151 --> 00:43:33,611
<i>Rough day?</i>

918
00:43:33,652 --> 00:43:35,154
<i>Not my best.</i>

919
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,282
<i>But I did something.</i>

920
00:43:40,451 --> 00:43:42,828
<i>I actually kept a promise
to myself, a good one.</i>

921
00:43:44,163 --> 00:43:48,083
<i>So that's... I guess
the word is progress.</i>

922
00:43:48,125 --> 00:43:50,336
<i>Hmm. So you feel great?</i>

923
00:43:50,377 --> 00:43:52,338
<i>Oh, let's not get carried away.</i>

924
00:43:52,379 --> 00:43:54,632
<i>Well, maybe this will
take it over the top.</i>

925
00:43:54,673 --> 00:43:57,635
<i>I was researching some
big, juicy cases that would put</i>

926
00:43:57,676 --> 00:43:59,762
<i>a halo over your head
and found a small article</i>

927
00:43:59,803 --> 00:44:02,097
<i>in a local paper about
some neighborhood folks</i>

928
00:44:02,139 --> 00:44:04,475
<i>that got fleeced
by a payday lender.</i>

929
00:44:04,516 --> 00:44:06,060
<i>Company's called Plaintif-Full.</i>

930
00:44:06,101 --> 00:44:08,437
<i>Are they as bad as
their name suggests?</i>

931
00:44:08,479 --> 00:44:10,898
<i>Bad-faith operators. Predatory.</i>

932
00:44:10,939 --> 00:44:13,734
<i>Well, I no longer need it.</i>

933
00:44:13,776 --> 00:44:15,861
<i>But I am in the mood
to take someone down.</i>

934
00:44:19,365 --> 00:44:22,117
<i>Let's do it because
it's the right thing to do.</i>

935
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:23,410
<i>Refreshing.</i>

936
00:44:23,452 --> 00:44:24,787
<i>Old school. Move fast on this.</i>

937
00:44:24,828 --> 00:44:26,330
<i>You know it.</i>

938
00:44:33,128 --> 00:44:34,588
<i>I got it.</i>

939
00:44:34,630 --> 00:44:36,674
<i>When you said the past,</i>

940
00:44:36,715 --> 00:44:38,967
<i>it jogged my memory
of an old Fortune article.</i>

941
00:44:39,009 --> 00:44:40,636
<i>I used to read
'em on the crapper.</i>

942
00:44:40,678 --> 00:44:42,846
<i>Is that the actual
one from the crapper?</i>

943
00:44:42,888 --> 00:44:46,475
<i>No, I pulled that
one out of archives.</i>

944
00:44:46,517 --> 00:44:49,395
<i>The story is about
Prince's deceased partner,</i>

945
00:44:49,436 --> 00:44:51,021
<i>David Fells.</i>

946
00:44:51,063 --> 00:44:53,399
<i>Now Prince sold off 40%
of his company years ago</i>

947
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,651
<i>to Microsoft, back
when Fells was still alive.</i>

948
00:44:55,693 --> 00:44:57,736
<i>It was his first big
score. His first billion.</i>

949
00:44:57,778 --> 00:45:01,198
<i>But he's always famously
refused to sell off the rest.</i>

950
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:03,534
<i>To give up control.</i>

951
00:45:03,575 --> 00:45:04,535
<i>And?</i>

952
00:45:04,576 --> 00:45:06,036
<i>And...</i>

953
00:45:06,078 --> 00:45:07,913
<i>this might be a way
for you to wrest control</i>

954
00:45:07,955 --> 00:45:09,623
<i>of his goddamn
company from within,</i>

955
00:45:09,665 --> 00:45:11,333
<i>like a Guinea worm.</i>

956
00:45:11,375 --> 00:45:13,127
<i>Because Fells's
founder's shares come with</i>

957
00:45:13,168 --> 00:45:15,754
<i>ten to one voting rights.</i>

958
00:45:15,796 --> 00:45:17,715
<i>You get those,</i>

959
00:45:17,756 --> 00:45:19,633
<i>you can stage a boardroom coup.</i>

960
00:45:19,675 --> 00:45:21,510
<i>I've been in touch
with Fells's next of kin,</i>

961
00:45:21,552 --> 00:45:23,137
<i>his mother.</i>

962
00:45:23,178 --> 00:45:24,847
<i>She's agreed to meet.</i>

963
00:45:24,888 --> 00:45:28,809
<i>And she's no fan of Mike Prince.</i>

964
00:45:28,851 --> 00:45:30,894
<i>- How do you know that?
- 'Cause she said,</i>

965
00:45:30,936 --> 00:45:33,897
<i>"I have just what you need
to torpedo Mike Prince."</i>

966
00:45:33,939 --> 00:45:36,400
<i>She has the founder's shares
and the super voting rights.</i>

967
00:45:37,943 --> 00:45:39,570
<i>What else could that mean?</i>

968
00:45:39,611 --> 00:45:41,405
<i>Fuel up your jet?</i>

969
00:45:41,447 --> 00:45:42,656
<i>You know it.</i>

970
00:45:42,698 --> 00:45:44,074
<i>Bring her to me.</i>

971
00:45:47,953 --> 00:45:50,414
<i>Mrs. Fells... Oh, Brenda.</i>

972
00:45:50,456 --> 00:45:52,416
<i>Brenda.</i>

973
00:45:52,458 --> 00:45:54,251
<i>I'm gonna to put this
bluntly, and I'm not</i>

974
00:45:54,293 --> 00:45:57,087
<i>gonna bother negotiating.</i>

975
00:45:57,129 --> 00:46:00,257
<i>I will back up an armored
car for your son's shares.</i>

976
00:46:00,299 --> 00:46:02,718
<i>I... I'm sorry, I
don't have them.</i>

977
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:04,553
<i>Uh-uh...</i>

978
00:46:04,595 --> 00:46:07,848
<i>he sold them before he
died, to Michael Prince.</i>

979
00:46:07,890 --> 00:46:09,725
<i>I shouldn't have come.</i>

980
00:46:09,767 --> 00:46:12,644
<i>Well, ma'am, that is too bad.</i>

981
00:46:12,686 --> 00:46:14,396
<i>But you knew this
before I flew you in.</i>

982
00:46:14,438 --> 00:46:16,690
<i>And you didn't say don't, so...</i>

983
00:46:16,732 --> 00:46:19,860
<i>That leads me to believe
it might be something else.</i>

984
00:46:19,902 --> 00:46:21,987
<i>Oh, I'm sure it's
something else.</i>

985
00:46:22,029 --> 00:46:25,783
<i>It's something I've known
and carried for years,</i>

986
00:46:25,824 --> 00:46:27,701
<i>since my s-all right, look.</i>

987
00:46:28,786 --> 00:46:30,746
<i>I signed an NDA.</i>

988
00:46:30,788 --> 00:46:33,791
<i>Prince came to me years ago,
right after David was buried.</i>

989
00:46:33,832 --> 00:46:37,377
<i>He gave me money
and he had me sign.</i>

990
00:46:37,419 --> 00:46:39,463
<i>This is just you and me talking.</i>

991
00:46:41,089 --> 00:46:43,801
<i>Whatever you tell
me, and if it's valuable,</i>

992
00:46:43,842 --> 00:46:45,594
<i>and I use it,</i>

993
00:46:45,636 --> 00:46:48,931
<i>I will cover any losses
or liabilities you face.</i>

994
00:46:48,972 --> 00:46:50,974
<i>Only an idiot would
take your word</i>

995
00:46:51,016 --> 00:46:52,768
<i>and not write this
up with lawyers.</i>

996
00:46:52,810 --> 00:46:54,728
<i>Only an idiot would
make the offer.</i>

997
00:47:02,361 --> 00:47:06,323
<i>My son was brilliant,
but he was troubled.</i>

998
00:47:06,365 --> 00:47:08,867
<i>He had trouble finding
his way through the world.</i>

999
00:47:10,327 --> 00:47:12,287
<i>He didn't make friends easily.</i>

1000
00:47:12,329 --> 00:47:15,499
<i>And then he started in with
the drinking and the drugs.</i>

1001
00:47:16,792 --> 00:47:18,919
<i>Except for Michael Prince.</i>

1002
00:47:18,961 --> 00:47:23,090
<i>Those two spent thousands
of hours in my garage working.</i>

1003
00:47:23,131 --> 00:47:25,634
<i>You know, Prince was
like the forward face</i>

1004
00:47:25,676 --> 00:47:29,596
<i>of all my son's genius.</i>

1005
00:47:29,638 --> 00:47:31,473
<i>And then one day,
he stops by with</i>

1006
00:47:31,515 --> 00:47:36,103
<i>what seemed like
a windfall, $200,000.</i>

1007
00:47:36,144 --> 00:47:38,438
<i>He said he'd gotten
a licensing agreement</i>

1008
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,524
<i>and that he would buy
David's piece of the company</i>

1009
00:47:40,566 --> 00:47:42,860
<i>to take the pressure off.</i>

1010
00:47:42,901 --> 00:47:44,695
<i>So David could
chill out, you know,</i>

1011
00:47:44,736 --> 00:47:47,322
<i>clean up, dry out.</i>

1012
00:47:47,364 --> 00:47:50,534
<i>He said that while the
first one didn't work,</i>

1013
00:47:50,576 --> 00:47:52,369
<i>they would start a new company</i>

1014
00:47:52,411 --> 00:47:53,954
<i>when David was strong again.</i>

1015
00:47:53,996 --> 00:47:56,039
<i>And-and to tip the scales,</i>

1016
00:47:56,081 --> 00:47:58,876
<i>he brought along
the check and tickets</i>

1017
00:47:58,917 --> 00:48:01,712
<i>to Rio for Carnival.</i>

1018
00:48:01,753 --> 00:48:04,339
<i>Michael's gonna join
him on the last day.</i>

1019
00:48:04,381 --> 00:48:09,136
<i>So David accepted, he went.</i>

1020
00:48:09,177 --> 00:48:11,179
<i>And then the Microsoft
deal was announced,</i>

1021
00:48:11,221 --> 00:48:14,391
<i>and the numbers were reported,
and Michael Prince had made...</i>

1022
00:48:14,433 --> 00:48:16,393
<i>wh... uh a hundred times</i>

1023
00:48:16,435 --> 00:48:18,270
<i>what he'd paid
David, a thousand.</i>

1024
00:48:18,312 --> 00:48:19,980
<i>He knew the offer was coming.</i>

1025
00:48:20,022 --> 00:48:21,899
<i>Oh, he knew,
and he stalled it off</i>

1026
00:48:21,940 --> 00:48:23,984
<i>until he could
secure David's piece.</i>

1027
00:48:24,026 --> 00:48:26,570
<i>Made it look like a favor
and put him out in the cold.</i>

1028
00:48:30,198 --> 00:48:32,618
<i>I mean, do you know</i>

1029
00:48:32,659 --> 00:48:35,621
<i>what that does to a 25-year-old?</i>

1030
00:48:35,662 --> 00:48:37,581
<i>To lose out like that?</i>

1031
00:48:37,623 --> 00:48:40,083
<i>I mean, to be stabbed
in the back like that</i>

1032
00:48:40,125 --> 00:48:41,418
<i>by your best friend?</i>

1033
00:48:43,420 --> 00:48:47,174
<i>The drinking and using
went into overdrive.</i>

1034
00:48:47,215 --> 00:48:49,259
<i>He said he was
ready to come home.</i>

1035
00:48:49,301 --> 00:48:50,427
<i>But he didn't.</i>

1036
00:48:50,469 --> 00:48:52,054
<i>He... he went dark.</i>

1037
00:48:52,095 --> 00:48:54,056
<i>And he wound up
dying a month later</i>

1038
00:48:54,097 --> 00:48:56,099
<i>in a single-car accident.</i>

1039
00:48:57,893 --> 00:48:59,603
<i>Michael Prince</i>

1040
00:48:59,645 --> 00:49:02,105
<i>built his fortune
on my son's grave.</i>

1041
00:49:32,594 --> 00:49:34,137
<i>I was supposed to...</i>

1042
00:49:35,764 --> 00:49:37,724
<i>By now I was supposed
to be done with my PhD</i>

1043
00:49:37,766 --> 00:49:39,893
<i>in economic
philosophy at U Chicago.</i>

1044
00:49:39,935 --> 00:49:42,729
<i>I'd have published
my dissertation.</i>

1045
00:49:42,771 --> 00:49:45,148
<i>But then Bobby Axelrod
put a promise of mentorship,</i>

1046
00:49:45,190 --> 00:49:47,609
<i>a meeting of the
minds, a kinship of ideas,</i>

1047
00:49:47,651 --> 00:49:51,321
<i>and a way of seeing the
markets I'd never felt before,</i>

1048
00:49:51,363 --> 00:49:54,157
<i>and so much money in
front of me that I just...</i>

1049
00:49:54,199 --> 00:49:55,426
<i>I never even
called the professor</i>

1050
00:49:55,450 --> 00:49:56,678
<i>I was supposed to go work with.</i>

1051
00:49:56,702 --> 00:49:59,162
<i>I just withdrew
from the program.</i>

1052
00:49:59,204 --> 00:50:01,498
<i>You wish you were at
the place fun goes to die</i>

1053
00:50:01,540 --> 00:50:03,500
<i>instead of making jillions</i>

1054
00:50:03,542 --> 00:50:06,503
<i>solving unsolvable
puzzles every day?</i>

1055
00:50:06,545 --> 00:50:07,855
<i>I never thought I
was the kind of person</i>

1056
00:50:07,879 --> 00:50:09,506
<i>who would be
tempted by all this.</i>

1057
00:50:09,548 --> 00:50:12,009
<i>And then I told myself
that anyone, everyone,</i>

1058
00:50:12,050 --> 00:50:14,011
<i>would lose a piece
of themselves for this.</i>

1059
00:50:14,052 --> 00:50:16,513
<i>It made me able
to justify what I did.</i>

1060
00:50:16,555 --> 00:50:18,557
<i>And then here I was.</i>

1061
00:50:18,598 --> 00:50:20,702
<i>And it was the perfect chance
to conduct an experiment,</i>

1062
00:50:20,726 --> 00:50:22,686
<i>a test case.</i>

1063
00:50:22,728 --> 00:50:25,230
<i>Part of you wants me to
make the escape you couldn't.</i>

1064
00:50:25,272 --> 00:50:27,816
<i>But the other part
wants me to stay.</i>

1065
00:50:27,858 --> 00:50:30,652
<i>To prove to you that no
one can resist the clarion call.</i>

1066
00:50:30,694 --> 00:50:32,654
<i>I'm on the wrong
side of our generation.</i>

1067
00:50:32,696 --> 00:50:34,406
<i>Even just the four
years between when Axe</i>

1068
00:50:34,448 --> 00:50:36,033
<i>put the choice to me, and now...</i>

1069
00:50:36,074 --> 00:50:38,368
<i>No, yeah, you're old. I'm not.</i>

1070
00:50:38,410 --> 00:50:41,538
<i>But I'm not sitting here
like I'm better than you.</i>

1071
00:50:41,580 --> 00:50:43,081
<i>Fuck.</i>

1072
00:50:43,123 --> 00:50:45,250
<i>You chose something
sturdy and real,</i>

1073
00:50:45,292 --> 00:50:48,003
<i>and where, like, you could land.</i>

1074
00:50:48,045 --> 00:50:50,255
<i>I'm still floating.</i>

1075
00:50:50,297 --> 00:50:52,883
<i>That's what I've been thinking
about since we last talked.</i>

1076
00:50:52,924 --> 00:50:55,218
<i>- How I'm caught between.
- Really?</i>

1077
00:50:55,260 --> 00:50:57,321
<i>I don't want to go work in
the Ford plant for 40 years</i>

1078
00:50:57,345 --> 00:50:58,722
<i>like a rivet head.</i>

1079
00:50:58,764 --> 00:51:00,932
<i>But knowing I'm
really in something?</i>

1080
00:51:02,434 --> 00:51:04,061
<i>Yeah, that seems good.</i>

1081
00:51:06,688 --> 00:51:09,066
<i>I'm gonna ditch the
catering company.</i>

1082
00:51:09,107 --> 00:51:11,568
<i>Good. But I can't let
you just go and do it</i>

1083
00:51:11,610 --> 00:51:13,755
<i>without warning you what
else you need to be ready for.</i>

1084
00:51:13,779 --> 00:51:16,198
<i>What else one gives
up to go on the journey.</i>

1085
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,241
<i>Oh, so what else do you give up?</i>

1086
00:51:18,283 --> 00:51:20,077
<i>Nights, weekends, holidays.</i>

1087
00:51:20,118 --> 00:51:21,679
<i>Your world will become
a series of data sets,</i>

1088
00:51:21,703 --> 00:51:23,163
<i>line items on a P and I.</i>

1089
00:51:23,205 --> 00:51:25,624
<i>Everything broken
down into basis points.</i>

1090
00:51:25,665 --> 00:51:27,060
<i>And your victories
will not be the money,</i>

1091
00:51:27,084 --> 00:51:28,710
<i>the thing that
anybody can measure,</i>

1092
00:51:28,752 --> 00:51:30,712
<i>but the stuff they can't
begin to appreciate.</i>

1093
00:51:30,754 --> 00:51:32,255
<i>Looking beyond
what's quantifiable,</i>

1094
00:51:32,297 --> 00:51:34,800
<i>the subtle refinements,
the elegance of success.</i>

1095
00:51:38,970 --> 00:51:40,597
<i>I'll quit the catering company.</i>

1096
00:51:40,639 --> 00:51:42,933
<i>Then buy it. Turn it
over to my friends.</i>

1097
00:51:42,974 --> 00:51:45,227
<i>Nice gesture. They
won't appreciate it.</i>

1098
00:51:45,268 --> 00:51:47,413
<i>But at least you'll know you
did a good thing for them.</i>

1099
00:51:47,437 --> 00:51:49,564
<i>Your real friends, few
as they may be, will get it.</i>

1100
00:51:49,606 --> 00:51:50,774
<i>And the ones that don't,</i>

1101
00:51:50,816 --> 00:51:51,983
<i>don't have the capacity to be</i>

1102
00:51:52,025 --> 00:51:53,318
<i>the kind of friend you need.</i>

1103
00:51:55,112 --> 00:51:56,696
<i>So instead of friendship,</i>

1104
00:51:56,738 --> 00:51:58,490
<i>you have to use
work to fill the void?</i>

1105
00:51:58,532 --> 00:51:59,991
<i>I guess I do.</i>

1106
00:52:26,184 --> 00:52:27,227
<i>Thanks for this.</i>

1107
00:52:27,269 --> 00:52:28,645
<i>Yeah, he was in town.</i>

1108
00:52:28,687 --> 00:52:30,605
<i>I figured he'd dig the work.</i>

1109
00:52:30,647 --> 00:52:32,649
<i>This is really good work, man.</i>

1110
00:52:32,691 --> 00:52:34,776
<i>Cool.</i>

1111
00:52:34,818 --> 00:52:36,653
<i>I dig yours.</i>

1112
00:52:36,695 --> 00:52:38,822
<i>Hey. You know, maybe
you want to commission one.</i>

1113
00:52:40,157 --> 00:52:42,117
<i>I spend most of my
money on guitars</i>

1114
00:52:42,159 --> 00:52:44,828
<i>- but I'm thinking about it.
- Yeah, good. Good.</i>

1115
00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:46,830
<i>Hey, you want to come
by my place tonight?</i>

1116
00:52:46,872 --> 00:52:48,832
<i>I'm having my team by
for a special viewing party.</i>

1117
00:52:48,874 --> 00:52:50,500
<i>Oh, no, thank you.</i>

1118
00:52:50,542 --> 00:52:52,669
<i>I-I don't ever really
feel comfortable around</i>

1119
00:52:52,711 --> 00:52:54,129
<i>the financial set, right?</i>

1120
00:52:54,171 --> 00:52:55,630
<i>Oh, yeah.</i>

1121
00:52:56,882 --> 00:52:58,675
<i>But there... There
are some upsides.</i>

1122
00:52:58,717 --> 00:53:00,510
<i>Only thing that sounds
worse is hanging out</i>

1123
00:53:00,552 --> 00:53:02,220
<i>with record label executives.</i>

1124
00:53:02,262 --> 00:53:03,531
<i>Especially when
I'm trying to work.</i>

1125
00:53:03,555 --> 00:53:05,182
<i>I just want to do my thing.</i>

1126
00:53:05,223 --> 00:53:07,017
<i>I don't want to be
somebody's trick monkey.</i>

1127
00:53:09,519 --> 00:53:11,605
<i>Anyway, thanks for
showing me this stuff.</i>

1128
00:53:11,646 --> 00:53:13,190
<i>Really good.
Really inspirational.</i>

1129
00:53:13,231 --> 00:53:14,733
<i>Oh, thanks.</i>

1130
00:53:17,652 --> 00:53:19,696
<i>- Hey see you in a bit.
- Yeah.</i>

1131
00:53:28,580 --> 00:53:30,165
<i>-Okay.</i>

1132
00:53:32,542 --> 00:53:34,461
<i>Does the paint
get on your stuff?</i>

1133
00:53:34,502 --> 00:53:36,546
<i>Or do you like, add it?</i>

1134
00:53:36,588 --> 00:53:38,590
<i>Tuk, you shouldn't
bother the man.</i>

1135
00:53:38,632 --> 00:53:39,758
<i>He doesn't like small talk.</i>

1136
00:53:39,799 --> 00:53:41,343
<i>What... what, uh,</i>

1137
00:53:41,384 --> 00:53:42,844
<i>what is it that
you're trying to ask?</i>

1138
00:53:42,886 --> 00:53:44,679
-<i>I just dropped 10 -
K on this Gucci jacket</i>

1139
00:53:44,721 --> 00:53:46,514
<i>to wear out to clubs, but...</i>

1140
00:53:46,556 --> 00:53:48,558
<i>But now I'm thinking
if I splash some paint...</i>

1141
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:49,893
<i>Oh, Tuk.</i>

1142
00:53:49,935 --> 00:53:51,245
<i>Yeah, you really
shouldn't do that.</i>

1143
00:53:51,269 --> 00:53:52,729
<i>You'll just ruin
your jacket, loser.</i>

1144
00:53:52,771 --> 00:53:54,564
<i>Exactly.</i>

1145
00:53:54,606 --> 00:53:56,250
<i>The artist thing works for
him because he's an artist.</i>

1146
00:53:56,274 --> 00:53:57,776
<i>Get your own game,</i>

1147
00:53:57,817 --> 00:54:00,403
<i>like buying the girl
the $10,000 jacket.</i>

1148
00:54:00,445 --> 00:54:02,364
<i>Maybe you'll get
some gratitude points.</i>

1149
00:54:06,201 --> 00:54:07,577
<i>Oh, Tuk.</i>

1150
00:54:08,995 --> 00:54:11,039
<i>Of your own little town.</i>

1151
00:54:13,416 --> 00:54:17,754
<i>Yeah, the world would swing.</i>

1152
00:54:19,464 --> 00:54:24,844
<i>Oh, if I Were king.</i>

1153
00:54:26,972 --> 00:54:30,433
<i>Hi. I heard we had
to watch this thing.</i>

1154
00:54:30,475 --> 00:54:32,269
<i>My friends were going out</i>

1155
00:54:32,310 --> 00:54:34,938
<i>and I didn't know
where else to go really.</i>

1156
00:54:37,315 --> 00:54:40,610
<i>-Do you mind?</i>

1157
00:54:40,652 --> 00:54:47,242
<i>It's good to be king
And have your own way.</i>

1158
00:54:47,284 --> 00:54:50,245
<i>Get a feeling of peace.</i>

1159
00:54:50,287 --> 00:54:52,414
<i>At the end of the day.</i>

1160
00:54:54,499 --> 00:54:56,501
<i>Mr. Ambassador,
your habiliments.</i>

1161
00:55:00,380 --> 00:55:02,424
<i>All right, everyone.</i>

1162
00:55:02,465 --> 00:55:04,342
<i>You are gonna like this.</i>

1163
00:55:08,263 --> 00:55:10,056
<i>He's a self-made billionaire,</i>

1164
00:55:10,098 --> 00:55:12,058
<i>an advocate for the
environment and our future,</i>

1165
00:55:12,100 --> 00:55:15,603
<i>a man who asks the tough
questions about inequality.</i>

1166
00:55:15,645 --> 00:55:17,314
<i>But to paraphrase Balzac,</i>

1167
00:55:17,355 --> 00:55:19,399
<i>behind every great fortune,</i>

1168
00:55:19,441 --> 00:55:21,318
<i>there is great cruelty.</i>

1169
00:55:21,359 --> 00:55:23,153
<i>And in the case of Mr. Prince,</i>

1170
00:55:23,194 --> 00:55:25,113
<i>exploitation and betrayal.</i>

1171
00:55:25,155 --> 00:55:26,656
<i>Over the next part of the hour,</i>

1172
00:55:26,698 --> 00:55:28,825
<i>we will explore a fortune stolen</i>

1173
00:55:28,867 --> 00:55:30,243
<i>and a legacy pilfered.</i>

1174
00:55:33,038 --> 00:55:34,581
<i>It's been hard.</i>

1175
00:55:34,622 --> 00:55:37,500
<i>It's been brutal, really,</i>

1176
00:55:37,542 --> 00:55:40,170
<i>to watch the world
celebrate this man</i>

1177
00:55:42,005 --> 00:55:45,008
<i>and know the truth about
what he did to my son,</i>

1178
00:55:45,050 --> 00:55:48,178
<i>which is steal from
him and destroy him.</i>

1179
00:55:57,062 --> 00:55:58,980
<i>You best hope you are
not Dollar Bill's mission,</i>

1180
00:55:59,022 --> 00:56:01,066
<i>because he will ride
you down like Tombstone.</i>

1181
00:56:02,525 --> 00:56:04,819
<i>Dollar Bill! Dollar Bill!</i>

1182
00:56:06,571 --> 00:56:08,365
<i>It helps to make friends.</i>

1183
00:56:10,325 --> 00:56:11,534
<i>Anyone seen Tanner?</i>

1184
00:56:11,576 --> 00:56:13,036
<i>No.</i>

1185
00:56:19,834 --> 00:56:23,046
<i>That fish? He went for the lure.</i>

1186
00:56:23,088 --> 00:56:24,130
<i>And he got hooked.</i>

1187
00:56:24,172 --> 00:56:25,965
<i>Fuck yeah!</i>

1188
00:56:26,007 --> 00:56:27,675
<i>Pick up the company
on the cheap.</i>

1189
00:56:27,717 --> 00:56:29,552
<i>Already done.</i>

1190
00:56:47,278 --> 00:56:48,756
<i>Pull Plaintif-Full's
corporate charter,</i>

1191
00:56:48,780 --> 00:56:49,924
<i>- their company by-laws.
- That is what</i>

1192
00:56:49,948 --> 00:56:51,908
<i>I'm elbow deep in right now.</i>

1193
00:56:51,950 --> 00:56:55,078
<i>Why would Axe care about buying
up a marginal shitbag operation</i>

1194
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:58,039
<i>that after our takedown
has basically zero value?</i>

1195
00:56:58,081 --> 00:57:00,125
<i>What are we missing? What angle?</i>

1196
00:57:00,166 --> 00:57:01,751
<i>Not what angle, what asset.</i>

1197
00:57:04,045 --> 00:57:05,648
<i>The way they got away
with a bunch of their</i>

1198
00:57:05,672 --> 00:57:07,191
<i>unethical lending
is doing it in-house.</i>

1199
00:57:07,215 --> 00:57:08,716
<i>They have a bank charter.</i>

1200
00:57:08,758 --> 00:57:10,093
<i>They have a
fucking bank charter.</i>

1201
00:57:15,473 --> 00:57:17,767
<i>We just delivered Axe's bank.</i>

1202
00:57:17,809 --> 00:57:20,270
<i>Jenny said, when she
was just five years old.</i>

1203
00:57:20,311 --> 00:57:22,814
<i>There was nothin'
happening at all.</i>

1204
00:57:26,568 --> 00:57:29,237
<i>Every time she
puts on the radio.</i>

1205
00:57:29,279 --> 00:57:31,781
<i>There was nothin'
goin' down at all.</i>

1206
00:57:31,823 --> 00:57:35,452
<i>Not at all.</i>

1207
00:57:35,493 --> 00:57:38,204
<i>Then, one fine mornin' she
puts on a New York station.</i>

1208
00:57:38,246 --> 00:57:40,081
<i>They know, she don't believe...</i>

1209
00:57:40,123 --> 00:57:42,459
<i>You disappeared. You
weren't answering your phone.</i>

1210
00:57:42,500 --> 00:57:43,960
<i>Don't talk!</i>

1211
00:57:45,462 --> 00:57:47,130
<i>Just saying hi.</i>

1212
00:57:49,174 --> 00:57:50,967
<i>Can I watch?</i>

1213
00:57:51,009 --> 00:57:52,929
<i>You can stay, you can
leave, you can do whatever.</i>

1214
00:57:54,137 --> 00:57:56,055
<i>You wanted pure?</i>

1215
00:57:56,097 --> 00:57:57,974
<i>This is pure as I got!</i>

1216
00:58:01,352 --> 00:58:03,730
<i>Make yourself a
drink if you want.</i>

1217
00:58:03,771 --> 00:58:05,315
<i>You just let me work.</i>

1218
00:58:22,832 --> 00:58:25,376
<i>Jenny said, when she was
just about five years old.</i>

1219
00:58:25,418 --> 00:58:27,837
<i>"You know, my parents are
gonna be the death of us all".</i>

1220
00:58:31,216 --> 00:58:34,260
<i>Two TV sets and
two Cadillac cars.</i>

1221
00:58:34,302 --> 00:58:37,764
<i>Well, you know, ain't
gonna help me at all.</i>

1222
00:58:37,805 --> 00:58:40,183
<i>No, just your time do.</i>

1223
00:58:40,225 --> 00:58:43,353
<i>Then, one fine morning she
turns on a New York station.</i>

1224
00:58:43,394 --> 00:58:46,105
<i>She doesn't believe
what she hears at all.</i>

1225
00:58:48,691 --> 00:58:51,027
<i>Ooh, she started
dancin' to that.</i>

1226
00:58:51,069 --> 00:58:53,154
<i>Fine, fine music.</i>

1227
00:58:53,196 --> 00:58:56,199
<i>You know, her life
was saved by rock'n'roll</i>
