Previously on Billions...
2
00:00:10,375 --> 00:00:13,541
Today you're the man who
brought down Lawrence Boyd.
3
00:00:13,542 --> 00:00:14,500
You're under arrest.
4
00:00:14,501 --> 00:00:16,999
Today you're Elvis.
5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,082
The only question now is...
6
00:00:19,083 --> 00:00:21,541
Which mansion will it be,
Gracie or the Governor's?
7
00:00:21,542 --> 00:00:23,290
Head of Crim. Man,
plum purchase.
8
00:00:23,291 --> 00:00:26,499
Freaking launch pad of
the private sector.
9
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:28,165
I mean, you land
it, you're minted.
10
00:00:28,166 --> 00:00:29,208
My part is done for now.
11
00:00:31,792 --> 00:00:33,666
Oh, what the fuck.
12
00:00:33,667 --> 00:00:34,916
Hang for a minute, Bryan.
13
00:00:34,917 --> 00:00:37,124
Listen to what Bobby has to say.
14
00:00:37,125 --> 00:00:40,290
Come work for Bach's
firm, on my account.
15
00:00:40,291 --> 00:00:43,124
You know what Rhoades is, Bryan,
16
00:00:43,125 --> 00:00:46,666
and I know you made that call.
17
00:00:46,667 --> 00:00:49,666
What did you do to get Axelrod
to drop his civil suits?
18
00:00:49,667 --> 00:00:51,707
I went back to work
at Axe Capital.
19
00:00:51,708 --> 00:00:53,040
I'm happy that it works for you.
20
00:00:53,041 --> 00:00:57,332
But for us, I'm afraid
it's a deal breaker.
21
00:00:57,333 --> 00:00:59,666
If you ever decide
to grapple with
22
00:00:59,667 --> 00:01:01,958
why you feel happiness
for you can only exist
23
00:01:01,959 --> 00:01:05,999
in the company of hairless
21-year-old girls, come see me.
24
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,834
We can fix that quick.
25
00:01:08,835 --> 00:01:10,035
Thanks for taking the meeting.
26
00:01:10,059 --> 00:01:11,374
Anything for Bruno.

Sandicot's downtown is
ripe for redevelopment.
28

The whole county's on
the edge of default.

If they don't get the casino,
30
00:01:17,543 --> 00:01:19,290
it goes from something
to consider
31
00:01:19,291 --> 00:01:20,874
to something to never
think about again.
32
00:01:20,875 --> 00:01:22,916
Move forward with the bond.
33
00:01:22,917 --> 00:01:24,874
The casino is
coming to Sandicot.
34
00:01:24,875 --> 00:01:26,958
We are committing to this play.
35
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,582
Sandicot's not getting
the gaming license.
36
00:01:29,583 --> 00:01:30,583

That casino was supposed
to be locked-the-fuck in.

When an op goes sour,
41
00:01:58,417 --> 00:02:00,708
we're taught to go
back to its genesis.

Put the bat down.
44
00:02:16,708 --> 00:02:18,582
The gaming license
went to another town.
45
00:02:18,583 --> 00:02:20,791
Oh, no.
46
00:02:20,792 --> 00:02:22,583

It's not like that.

Marco, it better fucking not be.
51
00:02:44,166 --> 00:02:47,332
It's not, Uncle Bru. It's not, Mr.
Axelrod.
52

And you, sir.
53
00:02:50,834 --> 00:02:52,916
- I'm gonna be sick.
- You should be...
54
00:02:52,917 --> 00:02:55,541
because you know who you
really hurt with this move.
55
00:02:55,542 --> 00:02:56,624
There was no move.

You fronted like the
whole thing was wired.

were you the bait?

I swear.
59

If you didn't set Mr.
Axelrod up, who set you up?
60
00:03:06,333 --> 00:03:08,040
Nobody. It's a thing
that happened,
61
00:03:08,041 --> 00:03:09,332
not something anyone did.
62
00:03:09,333 --> 00:03:10,208
That is the kind
of thing I'd say.
63
00:03:10,209 --> 00:03:11,749
You vetted the info yourself.
64
00:03:11,750 --> 00:03:13,999
I did.
65
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,374
Which means whoever
put you up to this
66
00:03:16,375 --> 00:03:18,959
was careful and targeted.
67
00:03:25,083 --> 00:03:27,333
Do you understand me?
68
00:03:31,375 --> 00:03:34,249
I swear... on my eyes.
69
00:03:34,250 --> 00:03:37,749
Yes, you do. Now, who paid you?
70
00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:40,290
No one even knew
who I was going to
71
00:03:40,291 --> 00:03:43,374
for the financing, not at first.
72
00:03:43,375 --> 00:03:45,332
It's some kind of
Albany machine shit.
73
00:03:45,333 --> 00:03:47,749
The kind that's been
going on for 100 years
74
00:03:47,750 --> 00:03:49,207
that we got caught in.
75
00:03:49,208 --> 00:03:51,958
You're getting fottuto for
something someone's cousin did
76
00:03:51,959 --> 00:03:54,624
to someone else's boss in a
distant part of the state.
77
00:03:54,625 --> 00:03:56,082
"Fottuto" means getting fucked.
78
00:03:56,083 --> 00:03:58,083
I picked that up in context.
79
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,290
You know the kind of options
80
00:04:05,291 --> 00:04:07,708

get my money out.

Go long.
82
00:04:17,542 --> 00:04:20,332
Oh, my bad. I overshot you.
83
00:04:20,333 --> 00:04:22,541
Looks like you finally
have some family time.
84
00:04:22,542 --> 00:04:24,082
Thanks for coming down here.
85
00:04:24,083 --> 00:04:26,541
No, the Boyd business kept
me living at the office,
86
00:04:26,542 --> 00:04:28,332
so I promised Kevin
I'd spend the day
87
00:04:28,333 --> 00:04:29,582
with him when it was done.
88
00:04:29,583 --> 00:04:32,917
But I'm always happy
to find time for you.
89
00:04:34,375 --> 00:04:36,040
Kevin, come here for a minute.
90
00:04:36,041 --> 00:04:38,457
There's someone I'd
like you to meet.
91
00:04:38,458 --> 00:04:39,666
This is Mike Dimonda,
92
00:04:39,667 --> 00:04:43,707
an excellent and very
influential young journalist.
93
00:04:43,708 --> 00:04:45,541
Mike, my son Kevin.
94
00:04:45,542 --> 00:04:46,707
Nice to meet you, sir.
95
00:04:46,708 --> 00:04:47,833
Helluva handshake, Kevin.
96
00:04:47,834 --> 00:04:49,374
He's a good kid.
97
00:04:49,375 --> 00:04:51,834
Okay, uh, go out.
98
00:04:52,792 --> 00:04:54,499
Skinny post.
99
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:56,750
Omaha, Omaha. Hut.
100
00:04:57,708 --> 00:04:59,624
This is the kind of
unadulterated high point
101
00:04:59,625 --> 00:05:02,749
that rarely comes along.
It's hard to see what more
102
00:05:02,750 --> 00:05:04,541
there is for you to gain as U.S.
Attorney.
103
00:05:04,542 --> 00:05:06,742
House, Senate, or do you have
plans to run for Governor?
104
00:05:06,766 --> 00:05:08,416
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
105
00:05:08,417 --> 00:05:10,207
- Where'd you get that?
- What I hear is
106
00:05:10,208 --> 00:05:11,749
you're taking a
quick victory lap,
107
00:05:11,750 --> 00:05:14,082
and then it's City Hall,
Capitol Building, or Albany.
108
00:05:14,083 --> 00:05:18,457
I would never even consider
it while still in office.
109
00:05:18,458 --> 00:05:22,124
You will be the first to
know should that change.
110
00:05:22,125 --> 00:05:24,416
Do you mind if I, uh,
shoot a few of you guys
111
00:05:24,417 --> 00:05:26,582
throwing the ball around?
Or is that private?
112
00:05:26,583 --> 00:05:28,166
It is.
113
00:05:29,208 --> 00:05:31,290
But if you think
it has some value,
114
00:05:31,291 --> 00:05:32,958
then... we can
make an exception.
115
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:35,583
That'd be great.
116
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,249

00:06:46,291 --> 00:06:47,874
Tell me you didn't use our bed.
146
00:06:47,875 --> 00:06:49,515
No, no. No. I did not
even let her inside.

That is lucky for you.
148
00:06:52,375 --> 00:06:53,583
Those towels go in the trash.
149
00:06:58,083 --> 00:07:00,582
Sounds like you've
been pardoned.
150
00:07:00,583 --> 00:07:02,416
I'm doing a war room.
151
00:07:02,417 --> 00:07:04,582

I'm really sorry.
154
00:07:09,625 --> 00:07:12,416
And wash your fucking hands.
155
00:07:12,417 --> 00:07:13,875
Right.
156
00:07:16,458 --> 00:07:17,458
Hello.
157
00:07:17,458 --> 00:07:18,417
That was quick.
158
00:07:18,418 --> 00:07:20,582
Thought you'd be back later.
159
00:07:20,583 --> 00:07:24,165
Yeah, well, we had our catch.
160
00:07:24,166 --> 00:07:27,874
Then Dad did the interview,
and we came home.
161
00:07:27,875 --> 00:07:30,333
Bye, Dad.
162
00:07:33,083 --> 00:07:34,883
You said you wanted to
spend the day with him.
163
00:07:34,907 --> 00:07:38,416
Yeah, I said I wanted to spend
time with him, and I did.
164
00:07:38,417 --> 00:07:40,332
You used him as a prop.
165
00:07:40,333 --> 00:07:41,666
Which you swore you'd never do,
166
00:07:41,667 --> 00:07:44,834
since that's exactly what
your father did to you.
167
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,374
We spent the morning
at the park.
168
00:07:48,375 --> 00:07:49,291
And a reporter happened upon us
169
00:07:49,292 --> 00:07:51,541
because, at the moment,
170
00:07:51,542 --> 00:07:53,707
I am news-worthy.
171
00:07:53,708 --> 00:07:54,958
Finally in a good way.
172
00:07:54,959 --> 00:07:57,124
I'm sure it's a wonderful
lesson for Kevin
173
00:07:57,125 --> 00:07:59,374
- on what really matters.
- Indeed it was.
174
00:07:59,375 --> 00:08:01,082
He got to run around
a little bit,
175
00:08:01,083 --> 00:08:02,958
and he got some exposure
176
00:08:02,959 --> 00:08:05,834
as to how you finesse relations
with the fourth estate.
177
00:08:08,250 --> 00:08:10,791
That is exactly the
kind of half-truth
178
00:08:10,792 --> 00:08:13,791
that's led to our
current situation.
179
00:08:13,792 --> 00:08:14,708
As is your failure to tell me
180
00:08:14,709 --> 00:08:17,624
you were going back
to work for Axelrod.
181
00:08:17,625 --> 00:08:18,874
Oh, my God.
182
00:08:18,875 --> 00:08:22,416
Oh, I had to Columbo
that one for myself.
183
00:08:22,417 --> 00:08:24,249
Yet it seems that I'm required
184
00:08:24,250 --> 00:08:26,541
to disclose every detail
of how I spend my time.
185
00:08:26,542 --> 00:08:28,666
No, you're not. When
it comes to the kids,
186
00:08:28,667 --> 00:08:30,307
yes, complete transparency,
but otherwise,
187
00:08:30,331 --> 00:08:32,874
you don't have to share
anything, so you know, go.
188
00:08:32,875 --> 00:08:35,207
Do whatever the fuck you
want, and so will I.
189
00:08:35,208 --> 00:08:37,374
Oh, there it goes.
There it goes.
190
00:08:37,375 --> 00:08:41,791
Your justification...
191
00:08:41,792 --> 00:08:45,124
slid in there so maybe I
would realize it later.
192
00:08:45,125 --> 00:08:47,750
But there it was.
193
00:08:49,667 --> 00:08:51,792
You want the freedom
to see other people.
194
00:08:54,959 --> 00:08:57,499
Yes.
195
00:08:57,500 --> 00:08:59,165
I want freedom...
196
00:08:59,166 --> 00:09:01,290
all around.
197
00:09:01,291 --> 00:09:03,165
And I would be free, as well.
198
00:09:03,166 --> 00:09:04,875
Consider that door open.
199
00:09:06,542 --> 00:09:08,207
You're really
saying those words?
200
00:09:08,208 --> 00:09:10,749
Yes, I am.
201
00:09:10,750 --> 00:09:12,834
For both of us.
202
00:09:15,083 --> 00:09:16,083
Wendy.
203
00:09:16,084 --> 00:09:17,583
What?
204
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,667
I'll see you tomorrow.
205
00:09:23,375 --> 00:09:26,208
♪ Dramatic music ♪
206
00:09:29,583 --> 00:09:32,457
So, it's fallen upon all of you
207
00:09:32,458 --> 00:09:34,290
to figure out how to
get us un-fucked.
208
00:09:34,291 --> 00:09:35,999
The gaming license
was the guarantee
209
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,480
that Sandicot would
pay off the notes.
210
00:09:37,504 --> 00:09:39,707
Now, the license is gone, the
area is going to default,
211
00:09:39,708 --> 00:09:41,833
and we're about to eat
a half a billion,
212
00:09:41,834 --> 00:09:45,916
including 100 mill in
fresh capital we put in.
213
00:09:45,917 --> 00:09:47,417
Any suggestions?
214
00:09:49,625 --> 00:09:52,249
There's no road to
raising tax revenues.
215
00:09:52,250 --> 00:09:54,124
I don't give a shit
what we don't have.
216
00:09:54,125 --> 00:09:56,332
I need to know the roads
that are open to us
217
00:09:56,333 --> 00:09:58,133
or the ground that can
be cleared to make one.
218
00:09:58,157 --> 00:10:01,082
Isn't there anyone we
can sell this turd to?
219
00:10:01,083 --> 00:10:03,416
Not without taking a
nine-figure haircut.
220
00:10:03,417 --> 00:10:05,040
Same goes for restructuring.
221
00:10:05,041 --> 00:10:06,666
This thing stinks
like Billy Batts
222
00:10:06,667 --> 00:10:07,792
in the trunk right now.
223
00:10:09,041 --> 00:10:10,165
Austerity.
224
00:10:10,166 --> 00:10:12,707
You don't need to whisper it
like it's some dark spell
225
00:10:12,708 --> 00:10:15,624
that'll come true if
you say it too loudly.
226
00:10:15,625 --> 00:10:17,542
It kind of is, though, isn't it?
227
00:10:21,708 --> 00:10:23,666
Yeah. Because once you say it,
228
00:10:23,667 --> 00:10:26,207
you realize it's
your only option.
229
00:10:26,208 --> 00:10:26,959
Austerity.
230
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,834
Okay. Step it out for everyone.
231
00:10:31,125 --> 00:10:34,707
Well, the note exchange requires
that the town pay you first,
232
00:10:34,708 --> 00:10:37,082
before any of its other
financial obligations,
233
00:10:37,083 --> 00:10:39,374
like union contracts
with town workers,
234
00:10:39,375 --> 00:10:41,124
teachers' salaries, all that.
235
00:10:41,125 --> 00:10:43,207
Austerity just means
you enforce that.
236
00:10:43,208 --> 00:10:45,999
Yes. Go ahead, seize
their assets,
237
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,874
like Singer did in Argentina.
238
00:10:47,875 --> 00:10:49,124
What kind of assets?
239
00:10:49,125 --> 00:10:51,624
Sandicot is not an entire
South American country.
240
00:10:51,625 --> 00:10:53,916
Right. We wouldn't be
skimming cream off the top.
241
00:10:53,917 --> 00:10:55,791
We'd be gutting them
for their organs,
242
00:10:55,792 --> 00:10:57,249
like in a Korean horror movie.
243
00:10:57,250 --> 00:11:00,999
You'd be mostly looking at land,
buildings, and utilities.
244
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,707
Town also has an
original Remington.
245
00:11:02,708 --> 00:11:05,290
It's worth upwards of $900,000.
246
00:11:05,291 --> 00:11:06,416
The fuck's a Remington?
247
00:11:06,417 --> 00:11:09,749
Frederic. American artist
from the 19th century.
248
00:11:09,750 --> 00:11:12,458
He specialized in
depictions of the Old West.
249
00:11:14,041 --> 00:11:17,082
I took Art History
for the automatic A.
250
00:11:17,083 --> 00:11:18,457
Some of it stuck.
251
00:11:18,458 --> 00:11:20,624
If you force them to pay you,
252
00:11:20,625 --> 00:11:22,707
the county would have
to severely cut back
253
00:11:22,708 --> 00:11:24,828
on its municipal workforce,
roll back labor contracts,
254
00:11:24,852 --> 00:11:27,332
and pillage its pension funds.
255
00:11:27,333 --> 00:11:29,173
Eventually they'd have
to shutter some schools,
256
00:11:29,174 --> 00:11:30,881
leading to overpopulated
classrooms
257
00:11:30,882 --> 00:11:33,082
and forced free periods.
258
00:11:33,083 --> 00:11:35,999
Decreased graduation
rates, increased crime.
259
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,707
They would be consolidation
of hospitals, fire houses.
260
00:11:38,708 --> 00:11:41,749
There would also be cuts
in police manpower.
261
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:43,999
Which would bring other
kinds of problems.
262
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,499
The effects are viral.
263
00:11:45,500 --> 00:11:47,332
The losses spin off
to the businesses
264
00:11:47,333 --> 00:11:49,124
that provide services
to the town.
265
00:11:49,125 --> 00:11:51,040
Other area businesses
start to close,
266
00:11:51,041 --> 00:11:52,707
and more jobs are lost.
267
00:11:52,708 --> 00:11:55,916
Won't all this be
a PR nightmare?
268
00:11:55,917 --> 00:11:58,916
PR that comes with losing that
much money is a nightmare, too.
269
00:11:58,917 --> 00:12:00,707
And we lose the money.
270
00:12:00,708 --> 00:12:03,124
I don't like any of the
answers I'm hearing.
271
00:12:03,125 --> 00:12:05,207
There has to be a way
to get this done
272
00:12:05,208 --> 00:12:06,374
without destroying the place.
273
00:12:06,375 --> 00:12:08,374
Model it up for me.
274
00:12:08,375 --> 00:12:11,417
All scenarios.
275
00:12:17,458 --> 00:12:22,290
Son, I did something today
276
00:12:22,291 --> 00:12:24,666
that is gonna
absolutely floor you.
277
00:12:24,667 --> 00:12:25,500
I thought you went
golfing today.
278
00:12:25,501 --> 00:12:29,332
I did. Played my 18,
279
00:12:29,333 --> 00:12:31,249
and then I withdrew
my membership
280
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:33,124
from the Garden City Golf Club.
281
00:12:33,125 --> 00:12:36,082
Oh, that's your natural habitat.
282
00:12:36,083 --> 00:12:39,416
Few places a man can
be as comfortable.
283
00:12:39,417 --> 00:12:42,207
But it was time.
284
00:12:42,208 --> 00:12:44,082
They don't allow women.
285
00:12:44,083 --> 00:12:46,290
And I cannot be a member of
a restricted club anymore.
286
00:12:46,291 --> 00:12:48,332
Noble.
287
00:12:48,333 --> 00:12:51,082
Anticipatory. Of the future.
288
00:12:51,083 --> 00:12:52,041
That's baked right
into the word.
289
00:12:52,042 --> 00:12:56,040
Your future, which
should start right now.
290
00:12:56,041 --> 00:12:57,916
It's unethical for
me to run while...
291
00:12:57,917 --> 00:13:01,332
The Tappan Institute
commissioned a poll.
292
00:13:01,333 --> 00:13:04,416
Oh, your buddy Tate Tappan's
think tank just happened...
293
00:13:04,417 --> 00:13:06,624
Independent.
294
00:13:06,625 --> 00:13:09,082
No connection to me.
295
00:13:09,083 --> 00:13:09,959
The results are quite...
296
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,125
I don't want to hear
anything about it.
297
00:13:17,959 --> 00:13:20,207
No, I've just gotten out
from under a cloud.
298
00:13:20,208 --> 00:13:23,791
If word leaks out about a
poll while I'm in office,
299
00:13:23,792 --> 00:13:26,457
that is gonna be a darker cloud.
300
00:13:26,458 --> 00:13:28,667
What is this, then?
301
00:13:30,708 --> 00:13:32,958
That's Camelot right there.
302
00:13:32,959 --> 00:13:34,624
Don't try to spin it.
303
00:13:34,625 --> 00:13:38,875
That is a picture of a
man running for office.
304
00:13:41,667 --> 00:13:45,124
You're doing more than
just dreaming about it.
305
00:13:45,125 --> 00:13:46,791
I'll send you those
poll results.
306
00:13:46,792 --> 00:13:49,000
I think they're gonna
be encouraging.
307
00:13:50,792 --> 00:13:55,582
But you're gonna have to
resolve things with Wendy.
308
00:13:55,583 --> 00:13:58,999
You cannot be an
effective candidate
309
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,360
if your marriage
is in the crapper.
310
00:14:00,384 --> 00:14:03,124
That's not really a
thing anymore, Dad.
311
00:14:03,125 --> 00:14:05,874
That I'd need a woman standing
behind me on the podium,
312
00:14:05,875 --> 00:14:07,999
that's archaic.
313
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,332
Son, you do know
why you need her
314
00:14:10,333 --> 00:14:12,083
in your life, don't you?
315
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,916
She is a natural-born killer.
316
00:14:18,917 --> 00:14:22,583
That's what she builds, all day...
killers.
317
00:14:23,667 --> 00:14:25,833
You're a good candidate.
318
00:14:25,834 --> 00:14:29,500
She'd make you unstoppable.
319
00:14:32,458 --> 00:14:35,332
Don't get your hopes up.
320
00:14:35,333 --> 00:14:38,165
Oh, you still got
your shucking skills.
321
00:14:38,166 --> 00:14:40,290
Summer job on City
Island when I was 14.
322
00:14:40,291 --> 00:14:43,582
For the record, I am not
eating any of those.
323
00:14:43,583 --> 00:14:47,542
♪ Dramatic music ♪
324
00:15:04,542 --> 00:15:05,666
Any answers?
325
00:15:05,667 --> 00:15:06,958
Getting there.
326
00:15:06,959 --> 00:15:10,374
Marc was absolutely
not conning you.
327
00:15:10,375 --> 00:15:12,124
No wires or transfers.
328
00:15:12,125 --> 00:15:14,082
No evidence of inbound cash
329
00:15:14,083 --> 00:15:16,290
or altered behavior whatsoever
330
00:15:16,291 --> 00:15:18,165
in him, the wife,
or other family.
331
00:15:18,166 --> 00:15:19,958
So he was conned
right along with me.
332
00:15:19,959 --> 00:15:22,499
The Gaming Facility
Location Board
333
00:15:22,500 --> 00:15:25,290
reassigned the license to
Kingsford at the last minute.
334
00:15:25,291 --> 00:15:26,582
I confirmed that.
335
00:15:26,583 --> 00:15:29,290
A guy named Joe Scolari
made the call to switch.
336
00:15:29,291 --> 00:15:30,582
No one motivated him?
337
00:15:30,583 --> 00:15:32,374
It's hard to pinpoint
where the idea
338
00:15:32,375 --> 00:15:33,208
to change even originated,
339
00:15:33,209 --> 00:15:35,791
or who he's trying
to keep happy.
340
00:15:35,792 --> 00:15:36,916
But I do know that these
things don't move
341
00:15:36,917 --> 00:15:38,749
unless somebody
orders it to happen.
342
00:15:38,750 --> 00:15:41,165
Okay. Stay on it.
343
00:15:41,166 --> 00:15:43,486
I'm gonna get with Scolari, see
if I can get a read on him.
344
00:15:50,667 --> 00:15:53,582
Thank you for agreeing to
meet, Senator Scolari.
345
00:15:53,583 --> 00:15:55,833
Oh, call me Joe.
346
00:15:55,834 --> 00:15:58,791
What brings you up the Thruway?
347
00:15:58,792 --> 00:16:00,541
You looking for
approval for another,
348
00:16:00,542 --> 00:16:03,208
uh, outdoor shower at your
place in the Hamptons?
349
00:16:04,458 --> 00:16:07,249
Well, if you've gone to so
much trouble to research me,
350
00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:08,416
you must know why.
351
00:16:08,417 --> 00:16:10,499
I'm here as an investor
in New York State
352
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:12,624
meeting with one its
finest representatives.
353
00:16:12,625 --> 00:16:14,499
Of course.
354
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:17,874
I know about the note
exchange on Sandicot.
355
00:16:17,875 --> 00:16:20,165
And I want you to know
the Location Board
356
00:16:20,166 --> 00:16:23,750
doesn't take matters of
gaming licenses lightly.
357
00:16:24,583 --> 00:16:27,124
The committee chose the location
358
00:16:27,125 --> 00:16:28,958
that would bring the
greatest benefit
359
00:16:28,959 --> 00:16:31,124
to the greatest
number of people.
360
00:16:31,125 --> 00:16:33,082
That turned out to be Kingsford.
361
00:16:33,083 --> 00:16:35,416
Oh, I believe that the
state-appointed board,
362
00:16:35,417 --> 00:16:36,749
handpicked by the Governor,
363
00:16:36,750 --> 00:16:38,999
would be nothing
short of rigorous.
364
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,999
Thing is, I have it
on good authority
365
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,958
that Sandicot was gonna
get that license.
366
00:16:43,959 --> 00:16:48,499
So the late switch seems... odd.
367
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:52,332
Our process always seems
odd to outsiders.
368
00:16:52,333 --> 00:16:55,666
That's where the whole
sausage-making thing comes from.
369
00:16:55,667 --> 00:16:57,416
But let me reassure you,
370
00:16:57,417 --> 00:17:00,624
there was nothing out of
the ordinary about it.
371
00:17:00,625 --> 00:17:02,040
The committee chose the location
372
00:17:02,041 --> 00:17:04,791
that would bring the
greatest benefit
373
00:17:04,792 --> 00:17:06,290
to the greatest
number of people.
374
00:17:06,291 --> 00:17:07,833
That turned out to be Kingsford.
375
00:17:07,834 --> 00:17:09,749
Yeah, no, you said.
376
00:17:09,750 --> 00:17:11,916
What I was looking for
is a specific reason
377
00:17:11,917 --> 00:17:14,416
that decision was made.
378
00:17:14,417 --> 00:17:16,416
Oh.
379
00:17:16,417 --> 00:17:18,707
You want specifics.
380
00:17:18,708 --> 00:17:22,707
Details into our process.
381
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:23,874
Inner workings and so forth.
382
00:17:23,875 --> 00:17:26,374
That would be helpful.
383
00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:26,875
Sure.
384
00:17:26,876 --> 00:17:29,165
I can share that.
385
00:17:29,166 --> 00:17:32,165
The committee chose the location
386
00:17:32,166 --> 00:17:33,606
that would bring the
greatest benefit
387
00:17:33,630 --> 00:17:36,457
to the greatest
number of people.
388
00:17:36,458 --> 00:17:39,374
That turned out to be Kingsford.
389
00:17:39,375 --> 00:17:44,374
Just as I'm sure you took on
the obligations of Sandicot
390
00:17:44,375 --> 00:17:46,583
for the good of
those fine people.
391
00:17:55,834 --> 00:17:59,207
I hope this has been as much
fun for you as it has for me.
392
00:17:59,208 --> 00:18:01,250
Absolutely.
393
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:08,750
♪ Dramatic music ♪
394
00:18:14,792 --> 00:18:16,791
He doesn't make any
of his own decisions.
395
00:18:16,792 --> 00:18:19,082
He's got a string hanging
right out of his back.
396
00:18:19,083 --> 00:18:21,040
And it's the Governor
who's pulling it.
397
00:18:21,041 --> 00:18:23,290
I'll see what I can find out.
398
00:18:23,291 --> 00:18:25,750
I didn't sleep last night.
399
00:18:26,835 --> 00:18:28,035
Your numbers have been strong,
400
00:18:28,059 --> 00:18:30,833
even in a tough market.
401
00:18:30,834 --> 00:18:34,040
Yeah, they have been.
402
00:18:34,041 --> 00:18:36,249
So what was it kept you up?
403
00:18:36,250 --> 00:18:37,583
Russian hackers.
404
00:18:39,166 --> 00:18:41,749
They can fuck with us so easily,
405
00:18:41,750 --> 00:18:44,207
in ways we can't
even comprehend.
406
00:18:44,208 --> 00:18:45,568
A few keystrokes
and they can bring
407
00:18:45,592 --> 00:18:48,124
an entire airline
to a standstill.
408
00:18:48,125 --> 00:18:50,332
Thousands of people stranded.
409
00:18:50,333 --> 00:18:52,290
So your fear is, uh, what?
410
00:18:52,291 --> 00:18:55,833
These hackers targeting you?
The entire market?
411
00:18:55,834 --> 00:18:56,792
My portfolio could
go up in flames.
412
00:18:56,793 --> 00:18:58,291
I have a family.
413
00:19:00,333 --> 00:19:03,207
When did you start
losing sleep over it?
414
00:19:03,208 --> 00:19:05,541
Just last night.
415
00:19:05,542 --> 00:19:06,333
Anything happen yesterday?
416
00:19:06,334 --> 00:19:08,833
I had to go out to Axe's house
417
00:19:08,834 --> 00:19:11,624
in the Hamptons for
a special meeting.
418
00:19:11,625 --> 00:19:14,457
Axe bought the distressed
debt on this town upstate.
419
00:19:14,458 --> 00:19:16,418
Now they're defaulting.
It's a shit load of money.
420
00:19:16,442 --> 00:19:18,817
What do you think you should do?
421
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,124
Well, what are the options?
422
00:19:22,125 --> 00:19:25,250
Austerity. Or lose money.
423
00:19:35,542 --> 00:19:37,416
Do you see the connection?
424
00:19:37,417 --> 00:19:39,041
With the hackers?
425
00:19:41,166 --> 00:19:42,833
You're saying we're like them?
426
00:19:42,834 --> 00:19:44,082
They're agents of chaos
427
00:19:44,083 --> 00:19:45,916
who can destabilize
all our lives
428
00:19:45,917 --> 00:19:47,749
just because they feel like it.
429
00:19:47,750 --> 00:19:49,707
Who are you to those
people upstate?
430
00:19:49,708 --> 00:19:50,708
- Chaos.
- Yes.
431
00:19:52,291 --> 00:19:54,749
Axe Cap is the agent of chaos.
432
00:19:54,750 --> 00:19:58,374
You know what austerity means.
433
00:19:58,375 --> 00:20:01,499
You guys traverse moral
and legal gray areas
434
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:03,499
all the time, but you
can live with it
435
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:06,332
because you're rarely aware
of anyone getting hurt by it.
436
00:20:06,333 --> 00:20:10,040
With this town, you know
exactly who's getting hurt,
437
00:20:10,041 --> 00:20:11,916
and where they're gonna
feel their pain.
438
00:20:11,917 --> 00:20:14,416
And how their lives are
gonna spin out of control
439
00:20:14,417 --> 00:20:16,624
because of decisions
made in your presence,
440
00:20:16,625 --> 00:20:19,833
at a fucking mansion
in the Hamptons.
441
00:20:19,834 --> 00:20:21,434
I don't even know that
it's wrong for him
442
00:20:21,458 --> 00:20:24,833
to do what he's doing...
443
00:20:24,834 --> 00:20:27,707
only that I don't like
how it makes me feel.
444
00:20:27,708 --> 00:20:30,208
This is all connected.
445
00:20:32,834 --> 00:20:35,958
When a situation
starts affecting you
446
00:20:35,959 --> 00:20:38,749
so much you can't sleep,
447
00:20:38,750 --> 00:20:41,040
you have to take action.
448
00:20:41,041 --> 00:20:42,541
Fighting for those people
449
00:20:42,542 --> 00:20:46,500
and fighting for yourself
are one and the same.
450
00:20:53,542 --> 00:20:57,707
I taught elementary
school for 30 years,
451
00:20:57,708 --> 00:21:00,208
always contributing
to my pension.
452
00:21:03,834 --> 00:21:07,332
That was my nest egg
for retirement.
453
00:21:07,333 --> 00:21:10,749
Then that nest egg got invested.
454
00:21:10,750 --> 00:21:15,749
But the town it was invested
in mismanaged its finances.
455
00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:19,666
And now they don't want
to pay what they owe,
456
00:21:19,667 --> 00:21:22,041
and my retirement is threatened.
457
00:21:25,625 --> 00:21:28,416
A spot like this will kick
off our Astroturf campaign
458
00:21:28,417 --> 00:21:30,749
to make it look like the
area's getting a bailout
459
00:21:30,750 --> 00:21:31,417
and not a death sentence.
460
00:21:31,418 --> 00:21:33,457
Commercials like this one,
461
00:21:33,458 --> 00:21:34,999
but specific to Sandicot,
462
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,040
sell the idea that
our investors,
463
00:21:37,041 --> 00:21:38,624
teachers from the Midwest,
464
00:21:38,625 --> 00:21:41,416
hardworking, responsible
people from all over,
465
00:21:41,417 --> 00:21:42,375
they are the ones who suffer
466
00:21:42,376 --> 00:21:44,958
if Sandicot is
allowed to default.
467
00:21:44,959 --> 00:21:47,749
Make it clear that we are the
ones willing to negotiate.
468
00:21:47,750 --> 00:21:49,457
It's the town that's
being difficult.
469
00:21:49,458 --> 00:21:51,874
Of course. Sandicot is
being uncooperative.
470
00:21:51,875 --> 00:21:52,875
We'll say all that.
471
00:21:52,876 --> 00:21:54,834
Any questions?
472
00:21:57,291 --> 00:21:59,082
Danzig.
473
00:21:59,083 --> 00:22:00,207
You're being awfully quiet.
474
00:22:00,208 --> 00:22:04,582
Are we really gonna do this?
475
00:22:04,583 --> 00:22:07,457
I mean, we can make
some market moves
476
00:22:07,458 --> 00:22:11,457
and potentially pick up some
of the losses by next quarter.
477
00:22:11,458 --> 00:22:13,338
We're making it look like
our investors are down
478
00:22:13,362 --> 00:22:15,416
to eating cat food.
479
00:22:15,417 --> 00:22:18,165
The people up there are
sure to turn to the media
480
00:22:18,166 --> 00:22:21,791
and to cry poor, to
play the victim card.
481
00:22:21,792 --> 00:22:23,457
It makes sense for
us to point out
482
00:22:23,458 --> 00:22:25,707
that there are other victims.
483
00:22:25,708 --> 00:22:26,833
Exactly.
484
00:22:26,834 --> 00:22:30,040
But we are not
really the victims.
485
00:22:30,041 --> 00:22:31,041
They are.
486
00:22:33,041 --> 00:22:35,000
I kind of feel like he's right.
487
00:22:36,667 --> 00:22:40,332
We could hold the debt,
take a short-term loss,
488
00:22:40,333 --> 00:22:43,666
but then take the lead
in re-growing Sandicot,
489
00:22:43,667 --> 00:22:45,833
redeveloping the downtown.
490
00:22:45,834 --> 00:22:47,249
Uh, create a food hall
491
00:22:47,250 --> 00:22:51,375
or bring in a minor-league team.
492
00:22:52,959 --> 00:22:55,458
Taylor, something you
want to add to that?
493
00:22:58,542 --> 00:22:59,750
Yes.
494
00:23:01,917 --> 00:23:03,597
It is unfortunate...
Offensive, actually...
495
00:23:03,621 --> 00:23:05,749
To even be talking about this,
496
00:23:05,750 --> 00:23:08,041
and that people have to
live in near-poverty.
497
00:23:11,458 --> 00:23:14,541
But in many ways, a town
is like a business.
498
00:23:14,542 --> 00:23:17,874
And when a business
operates beyond its means,
499
00:23:17,875 --> 00:23:18,792
when numbers don't add up,
500
00:23:18,793 --> 00:23:21,082
and the people in
charge continue on,
501
00:23:21,083 --> 00:23:23,043
heedless of that face, sure
that some sugar daddy,
502
00:23:23,067 --> 00:23:25,707
usually in the form of
the Federal Government,
503
00:23:25,708 --> 00:23:28,707
will come along and scoop them
up and cover the shortfalls,
504
00:23:28,708 --> 00:23:31,625
well, that truly offends me.
505
00:23:34,542 --> 00:23:37,541
People might say you
hurt this town.
506
00:23:37,542 --> 00:23:41,582
But in my opinion, the town
put the hurt on itself.
507
00:23:41,583 --> 00:23:43,124
Corrections are in order.
508
00:23:43,125 --> 00:23:44,582
There's a way to make this work,
509
00:23:44,583 --> 00:23:46,749
and that way is hard,
but necessary.
510
00:23:46,750 --> 00:23:50,833
As Taleb says, "Become
antifragile, or die."
511
00:23:50,834 --> 00:23:54,082
Once we do this, the town
will face that challenge
512
00:23:54,083 --> 00:23:56,249
and come out stronger.
513
00:23:56,250 --> 00:23:58,082
Or it will cease being.
514
00:23:58,083 --> 00:23:59,363
Either result
absolutely natural,
515
00:23:59,387 --> 00:24:01,332
as in, of nature itself.

00:25:12,375 --> 00:25:14,582
After Boyd?
533
00:25:14,583 --> 00:25:17,417
Don't count yourself out.
You've been crushing it lately.
534
00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:24,332
Chuck took him to
Keens for lunch.
535
00:25:24,333 --> 00:25:25,374
Oh, shit.
536
00:25:25,375 --> 00:25:27,332
Yeah.
537
00:25:27,333 --> 00:25:29,417
Shit.
538
00:25:38,834 --> 00:25:41,207
The mutton chop is the
thing to order here.
539
00:25:41,208 --> 00:25:42,833
It's what they're known for.
540
00:25:42,834 --> 00:25:45,374
Mutton? I don't know.
541
00:25:45,375 --> 00:25:48,249
Come on, it's tradition.
542
00:25:48,250 --> 00:25:50,250
Oh, this place has a special
character, doesn't it?
543
00:25:50,274 --> 00:25:54,374
You can almost feel all
the history in this room,
544
00:25:54,375 --> 00:25:55,833
all the deals that've been made.
545
00:25:55,834 --> 00:25:59,541
It's where Senator Vandeveer
brought me when she told me
546
00:25:59,542 --> 00:26:02,499
I was being appointed U.S.
Attorney.
547
00:26:02,500 --> 00:26:05,082
And it's where I always
thought I would take you
548
00:26:05,083 --> 00:26:07,542
when you'd earned the
promotion to Head of Crim.
549
00:26:09,875 --> 00:26:12,416
Mutton's an interesting
euphemism, isn't it?
550
00:26:12,417 --> 00:26:15,791
Well, nobody ever says "sheep."
551
00:26:15,792 --> 00:26:18,457
But who wants to eat something
so adorable, right?
552
00:26:18,458 --> 00:26:21,333
So it's a mutton chop.
553
00:26:22,542 --> 00:26:24,667
Definitely less objectionable.
554
00:26:26,875 --> 00:26:30,125
The kangaroo industry
recently tried that.
555
00:26:31,834 --> 00:26:33,249
- Did they?
- Yes.
556
00:26:33,250 --> 00:26:35,290
In fact, there was a
country-wide survey
557
00:26:35,291 --> 00:26:36,916
to pick a name,
558
00:26:36,917 --> 00:26:39,165
and they settled on "Australus."
559
00:26:39,166 --> 00:26:41,040
But not for the same
reason as a sheep.
560
00:26:41,041 --> 00:26:44,958
No, this was entirely different.
561
00:26:44,959 --> 00:26:48,583
Seems the kangaroo has a great
deal in common with the rat.
562
00:26:50,333 --> 00:26:52,707
Hence, "Australus."
563
00:26:52,708 --> 00:26:56,040
I mean, it's elegant,
don't you think?
564
00:26:56,041 --> 00:26:58,457
And yet, even by any other name,
565
00:26:58,458 --> 00:27:01,749
there's still a
slab of giant rat
566
00:27:01,750 --> 00:27:06,707
sitting on the plate
right in front of you.
567
00:27:06,708 --> 00:27:08,374
Can I get you started?
568
00:27:08,375 --> 00:27:11,165
Ah, here we go. He'll
have the mutton.
569
00:27:11,166 --> 00:27:12,166
I'm not ready yet.
570
00:27:16,291 --> 00:27:20,666
Bryan...
571
00:27:20,667 --> 00:27:21,947
do you have something
to tell me?
572
00:27:24,211 --> 00:27:25,291
I'm not sure what you mean.
573
00:27:25,292 --> 00:27:26,917
I think you know.
574
00:27:32,083 --> 00:27:34,624
Are we talking about
the investigation?
575
00:27:34,625 --> 00:27:36,707
Yes.
576
00:27:36,708 --> 00:27:38,707
Yes.
577
00:27:38,708 --> 00:27:40,250
We are.
578
00:27:41,125 --> 00:27:44,457
This is it.
579
00:27:44,458 --> 00:27:47,124
Your chance.
580
00:27:47,125 --> 00:27:49,833
This is the conversation
that you knew, deep down,
581
00:27:49,834 --> 00:27:52,249
you would have to have
if you had any desire
582
00:27:52,250 --> 00:27:55,999
to continue to have any
relationship with me.
583
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,499
This is the conversation
584
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:00,165
that you have been dreading
all these many months.
585
00:28:00,166 --> 00:28:02,833
The one about betrayal,
disillusionment,
586
00:28:02,834 --> 00:28:05,916
second chances, and
lost opportunities.
587
00:28:05,917 --> 00:28:07,666
This is the one
where you tell me
588
00:28:07,667 --> 00:28:09,457
how and why you brought
589
00:28:09,458 --> 00:28:11,749
the investigation
down upon my head.
590
00:28:11,750 --> 00:28:14,165
All right, Chuck.
591
00:28:14,166 --> 00:28:17,708
You got it right with all
that grandiose indignance.
592
00:28:19,208 --> 00:28:21,999

598
00:28:51,542 --> 00:28:52,959
One more thing.
599
00:28:56,041 --> 00:28:57,833
Is Axe Cap bugged?
600
00:28:57,834 --> 00:28:59,582
Not officially.
601
00:28:59,583 --> 00:29:00,999
But right now,
602
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,749
I wouldn't be surprised
if it were unofficially.
603
00:29:03,750 --> 00:29:06,207
Hey, look, I know you don't
want to come work for me.
604
00:29:06,208 --> 00:29:07,374
I get it.
605
00:29:07,375 --> 00:29:09,207
You're an idealist.
606
00:29:09,208 --> 00:29:11,290
But the man that you
work for now...
607
00:29:11,291 --> 00:29:13,791
He's not just dirty,
he's worse than that.
608
00:29:13,792 --> 00:29:14,916
He's a hypocrite.
609
00:29:14,917 --> 00:29:19,624
And if you know that, and
you still let it happen,
610
00:29:19,625 --> 00:29:21,792
then I think you know
what that makes you.
611
00:29:33,417 --> 00:29:36,332
Well...
612
00:29:36,333 --> 00:29:38,249
now I know for certain
613
00:29:38,250 --> 00:29:40,010
who I have to thank for
my day at the Senate.
614
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,749
But unlike Julius Caesar, seems
I managed to pull through.
615
00:29:46,750 --> 00:29:49,749
Oh, it's clear
you're a survivor.
616
00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:51,875
And it's clear I can't
make you Head of Crim.
617
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:56,666
You let him get to you.
618
00:29:56,667 --> 00:29:58,499
Only because he spoke the truth.
619
00:29:58,500 --> 00:30:00,624
You were abusing the office.
620
00:30:00,625 --> 00:30:02,249
You lied about
recusing yourself.
621
00:30:02,250 --> 00:30:05,749
You stole evidence from
your wife's computer.
622
00:30:05,750 --> 00:30:07,290
I made some missteps.
623
00:30:07,291 --> 00:30:08,041
Mis...
624
00:30:08,042 --> 00:30:11,290
Okay. More than missteps.
625
00:30:11,291 --> 00:30:15,958
In my vigor, I transgressed...
626
00:30:15,959 --> 00:30:19,791
in ways I never
imagined I would.
627
00:30:19,792 --> 00:30:21,207
But I have atoned for all of it.
628
00:30:21,208 --> 00:30:26,082
And I am still in the process,
personally and professionally.
629
00:30:26,083 --> 00:30:27,958
I dropped the case.
630
00:30:27,959 --> 00:30:30,833
And now you're
trying to punish me.
631
00:30:30,834 --> 00:30:32,917
I earned that position.
632
00:30:34,208 --> 00:30:36,999
But...
633
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,583
Chief of Crim goes to Lonnie.
634
00:30:40,583 --> 00:30:43,749
For the foreseeable future,
635
00:30:43,750 --> 00:30:46,166
the chair will remain vacant.
636
00:30:53,500 --> 00:30:56,374
Going ahead, I am committed
637
00:30:56,375 --> 00:30:58,499
to complete transparency
between us.
638
00:30:58,500 --> 00:31:01,582
No more silence or subterfuge.
639
00:31:01,583 --> 00:31:04,749
If one of us is angry,
or disappointed,
640
00:31:04,750 --> 00:31:07,332
we express it.
641
00:31:07,333 --> 00:31:11,416
So, you can either
quit right now...
642
00:31:11,417 --> 00:31:14,165
or you can stay.
643
00:31:14,166 --> 00:31:15,166
Prove your loyalty.
644
00:31:18,208 --> 00:31:21,082
And when you do,
645
00:31:21,083 --> 00:31:23,916
you will truly have
earned that chair.
646
00:31:23,917 --> 00:31:25,500
Are you two planning to order?
647
00:31:27,708 --> 00:31:31,125
I'll have the mutton.
What about you, Bryan?
648
00:31:35,542 --> 00:31:37,834
I'll have the same.
649
00:32:02,041 --> 00:32:05,499
Welcome sight, you in my office.
650
00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:07,499
I'm not sure my message
will be all that welcome.
651
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:09,791
Oh?
652
00:32:09,792 --> 00:32:12,374
I don't think it's in the
best interest of this firm
653
00:32:12,375 --> 00:32:14,040
to foreclose on that town.
654
00:32:14,041 --> 00:32:15,624
It's not our doing.
655
00:32:15,625 --> 00:32:17,874
We would merely be collecting
a debt owed to us.
656
00:32:17,875 --> 00:32:20,040
Still, it would hurt
our reputation.
657
00:32:20,041 --> 00:32:21,207
Is that so?
658
00:32:21,208 --> 00:32:23,833
Or would it hurt you to
watch other people suffer
659
00:32:23,834 --> 00:32:27,249
and feel like you
were part of it?
660
00:32:27,250 --> 00:32:28,457
I would be...
661
00:32:28,458 --> 00:32:30,374
in a sense.
662
00:32:30,375 --> 00:32:33,125
Yes.
663
00:32:38,750 --> 00:32:41,207
Truth be told,
664
00:32:41,208 --> 00:32:42,791
I'm still glad you're in here
665
00:32:42,792 --> 00:32:46,500
because I have conflicting
feelings about this, too.
666
00:32:47,500 --> 00:32:49,207
Ah.
667
00:32:49,208 --> 00:32:52,792
And I'd like to talk about it.
668
00:32:56,250 --> 00:32:57,250
No.
669
00:32:57,251 --> 00:33:01,082
I can't get sucked back into that.
I won't.
670
00:33:01,083 --> 00:33:03,791
Because instead of really doing
that exploration with me,
671
00:33:03,792 --> 00:33:06,958
I now know you'd just be using
me to make yourself feel better
672
00:33:06,959 --> 00:33:09,332
about what you wanted to
do in the first place.
673
00:33:09,333 --> 00:33:10,333
That's not true.
674
00:33:13,291 --> 00:33:15,374
What is true is that,
675
00:33:15,375 --> 00:33:17,290
far from harming our reputation,
676
00:33:17,291 --> 00:33:18,958
pressing our advantage
at Sandicot
677
00:33:18,959 --> 00:33:20,999
would only burnish
it to our investors.
678
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,165
That is what is expected.
679
00:33:23,166 --> 00:33:25,499
Still, I haven't decided
on a course of action
680
00:33:25,500 --> 00:33:30,124
because I do care about
the potential toll
681
00:33:30,125 --> 00:33:31,165
on the people out there.
682
00:33:31,166 --> 00:33:34,374
And these are the feelings
I want to discuss.
683
00:33:34,375 --> 00:33:35,375
No.
684
00:33:37,458 --> 00:33:40,374
Then I'm not the only one who
might be putting my own needs
685
00:33:40,375 --> 00:33:42,165

people of Sandicot.

00:35:44,166 --> 00:35:45,846
proffering wisdom when
you were working me,
711
00:35:45,870 --> 00:35:48,332
fucking with my head,
712
00:35:48,333 --> 00:35:49,916
undermining my sense of purpose.
713
00:35:49,917 --> 00:35:55,791
Your job is not your purpose.
714
00:35:55,792 --> 00:35:57,582
Chuck is not your savior.
715
00:35:57,583 --> 00:36:00,666
And if I'm not your friend,
716
00:36:00,667 --> 00:36:02,833
you have no friends.
717
00:36:02,834 --> 00:36:04,999
Fuck your client,
718
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,583
and fuck you, too.
719
00:36:14,750 --> 00:36:16,000
Stop.
720
00:36:38,917 --> 00:36:42,708
Upside-down day,
breakfast for dinner.
721
00:36:44,583 --> 00:36:45,707
No thanks.
722
00:36:45,708 --> 00:36:47,457
You always thought
that your mother
723
00:36:47,458 --> 00:36:50,249
made those waffles from scratch.
724
00:36:50,250 --> 00:36:51,749
I was eating Eggos?
725
00:36:51,750 --> 00:36:53,999
Yeah, she heated
them on the griddle.
726
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,290
I used the toaster.
727
00:36:56,291 --> 00:36:59,874
Put some syrup on
it, it's delicious.
728
00:36:59,875 --> 00:37:02,290
So...
729
00:37:02,291 --> 00:37:03,999
the poll results.
730
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,582
What do you think?
731
00:37:06,583 --> 00:37:10,082
I think I'm ready to...
732
00:37:10,083 --> 00:37:11,416
explore.
733
00:37:11,417 --> 00:37:14,457
- That's my boy.
- It's just preliminary.
734
00:37:14,458 --> 00:37:16,624
I'm not committing to anything.
735
00:37:16,625 --> 00:37:19,249
- I hear you.
- 'Cause the thing is,
736
00:37:19,250 --> 00:37:21,874
I'm really not sure that
I finished my mission.
737
00:37:21,875 --> 00:37:24,833
Well, who ever does, kid?
738
00:37:24,834 --> 00:37:28,040
You can weigh all that from
your goddamn nursing home.
739
00:37:28,041 --> 00:37:31,040
The poll...
740
00:37:31,041 --> 00:37:33,542
What did you learn?
741
00:37:37,959 --> 00:37:40,582
Well, uh...
742
00:37:40,583 --> 00:37:43,249
it's pretty clear what
my vulnerabilities are.
743
00:37:43,250 --> 00:37:45,374
My upstate numbers are weak.
744
00:37:45,375 --> 00:37:47,999
They are, but we can buff
and polish you up there.
745
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,792
I am not worried about that.
746
00:37:53,125 --> 00:37:55,749
How do I go about this?
747
00:37:55,750 --> 00:37:57,124
What do I do first?
748
00:37:57,125 --> 00:37:59,582
First thing we do is
we get you anointed.
749
00:37:59,583 --> 00:38:02,916
Ah. The whispered names.
750
00:38:02,917 --> 00:38:04,666
You have to really
know them now.
751
00:38:04,667 --> 00:38:07,666
One at least...
Black Jack Foley.
752
00:38:07,667 --> 00:38:09,267
I haven't heard that
one in quite awhile.
753
00:38:09,291 --> 00:38:11,499
By design.
754
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:13,207
You need some personal
time with him
755
00:38:13,208 --> 00:38:14,125
so that he can
take your measure,
756
00:38:14,126 --> 00:38:17,750
and so he'll bless you.
757
00:38:18,794 --> 00:38:19,954
Things still run through him?
758
00:38:19,978 --> 00:38:22,749
Indeed.
759
00:38:22,750 --> 00:38:24,416
Now...
760
00:38:24,417 --> 00:38:30,208
I want you to get his
granddaughter a clerkship.
761
00:38:31,125 --> 00:38:34,583
Then we wait for the call.
762
00:39:07,166 --> 00:39:09,417
Hi.
763
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,040
Hmmm.
764
00:39:31,041 --> 00:39:34,583
Hmmm. Morning.
765
00:39:36,083 --> 00:39:39,082
How'd you sleep?
766
00:39:39,083 --> 00:39:41,041
Good.
767
00:39:47,834 --> 00:39:51,250
You know, uh, my
life moves fast.
768
00:39:52,708 --> 00:39:56,207
And I tend to avoid the
kind of connections
769
00:39:56,208 --> 00:39:59,707
that lead to dependence
or can slow me down.
770
00:39:59,708 --> 00:40:01,124
I know.
771
00:40:01,125 --> 00:40:05,666
Weightlessness is a
priority for you.
772
00:40:05,667 --> 00:40:07,499
It's one of the
reasons I called.
773
00:40:07,500 --> 00:40:11,916
Doesn't this seem like a
whole different thing?
774
00:40:11,917 --> 00:40:13,082
This?
775
00:40:13,083 --> 00:40:15,290
Us.
776
00:40:15,291 --> 00:40:17,249
Look, I'm a restless person.
777
00:40:17,250 --> 00:40:19,040
I'm never happy
unless I'm in motion
778
00:40:19,041 --> 00:40:21,833
or running seven
projects simultaneously.
779
00:40:21,834 --> 00:40:23,625
But last night I was here.
780
00:40:25,667 --> 00:40:26,707
Even right now.
781
00:40:26,708 --> 00:40:31,207
I haven't stayed in bed past 5 a.m.
since 2001.
782
00:40:31,208 --> 00:40:35,542
Yet right now I feel
still, and I like it.
783
00:40:37,041 --> 00:40:40,959
And... since I'm here...
784
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,458
Hold up.
785
00:40:45,917 --> 00:40:50,124
I'm glad you found
another dimension
786
00:40:50,125 --> 00:40:52,374
you can exist in.
787
00:40:52,375 --> 00:40:55,290
But at the moment,
788
00:40:55,291 --> 00:40:57,875
the present is all I
can really handle.
789
00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:04,000
And the light of day is a
little bright for me right now.
790
00:41:05,708 --> 00:41:06,708
Okay.
791
00:41:06,709 --> 00:41:08,457
I got an early meeting.
792
00:41:08,458 --> 00:41:10,040
Mind if I take the first shower?
793
00:41:10,041 --> 00:41:11,583
All yours.
794
00:41:20,125 --> 00:41:22,165
Kids ready for camp?
795
00:41:22,166 --> 00:41:24,082
They're brushing their teeth.
796
00:41:24,083 --> 00:41:27,624
Did I just see, uh, the
sitter getting into a taxi?
797
00:41:27,625 --> 00:41:31,250
Why would she be
here in the morning?
798
00:41:35,208 --> 00:41:38,624
You know, I had a craving
799
00:41:38,625 --> 00:41:41,916
for a boudin noir last night,
800
00:41:41,917 --> 00:41:43,582
so I went to Bistro Grisby.
801
00:41:43,583 --> 00:41:46,165
We used to go there
all the time.
802
00:41:46,166 --> 00:41:48,999
Yeah, when we were
first married.
803
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,458
Not in a long time.
804
00:41:53,375 --> 00:41:54,582
Now it's gone.
805
00:41:54,583 --> 00:41:56,457
Gone?
806
00:41:56,458 --> 00:42:00,207
It's, uh, a nail salon now.
807
00:42:00,208 --> 00:42:02,499
They closed four years ago.
808
00:42:02,500 --> 00:42:03,791
Sad.
809
00:42:03,792 --> 00:42:05,041
Mm.
810
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:12,249
Look...
811
00:42:12,250 --> 00:42:15,999
I know that I reacted poorly
812
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,999
when I learned that you were
going back to Axe Capital.
813
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,791
I'm sorry.
814
00:42:23,792 --> 00:42:26,166
I was being selfish.
815
00:42:29,542 --> 00:42:30,624
If you are happy there,
816
00:42:30,625 --> 00:42:36,291
then... that's where
you should be.
817
00:42:40,041 --> 00:42:42,583
I want you to be happy.
818
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,041
That's lovely, Chuck.
819
00:42:55,291 --> 00:42:56,959
It really is.
820
00:42:59,875 --> 00:43:02,500
I'll go get the kids.
821
00:43:13,125 --> 00:43:15,833
Boss...
822
00:43:15,834 --> 00:43:18,499
I received a concerning
bit of news.
823
00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:20,000
Mick Danzig just quit.
824
00:43:21,375 --> 00:43:23,040
Is that so?
825
00:43:23,041 --> 00:43:24,521
I just never thought
I'd have an issue
826
00:43:24,545 --> 00:43:26,999
dating someone in the office.
827
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,833
And I really didn't.
828
00:43:29,834 --> 00:43:31,082
I don't know...
829
00:43:31,083 --> 00:43:34,874
it's just distracting
with Everett here.
830
00:43:34,875 --> 00:43:37,291
I see the way she
looks at him, and...
831
00:43:39,625 --> 00:43:41,916
We are in the middle
of a session.
832
00:43:41,917 --> 00:43:43,207
Mafee, out.
833
00:43:43,208 --> 00:43:46,541
Yeah, we were just shooting
the breeze, catching up.
834
00:43:46,542 --> 00:43:48,958
That was completely
inappropriate.
835
00:43:48,959 --> 00:43:50,559
How can I possibly do
my job if your guys
836
00:43:50,583 --> 00:43:53,958
think you might come barging
through the door at any moment?
837
00:43:53,959 --> 00:43:55,958
It takes me long enough
to convince them
838
00:43:55,959 --> 00:43:57,624
you don't have my office bugged.
839
00:43:57,625 --> 00:44:00,207
Once you realized you couldn't
influence my thinking,
840
00:44:00,208 --> 00:44:02,124
you decided to influence
someone else's?
841
00:44:02,125 --> 00:44:03,845
- That's my job.
- For the good of the firm,
842
00:44:03,869 --> 00:44:04,791
which I do not define
843
00:44:04,792 --> 00:44:06,707
as making one of my
best earners quit.
844
00:44:06,708 --> 00:44:09,624
I didn't make
anyone do anything.
845
00:44:09,625 --> 00:44:11,749
I know you had a session
with Mick Danzig.
846
00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:12,999
What did you say to him?
847
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,249
I can't discuss that.
848
00:44:14,250 --> 00:44:16,958
You contract here is very clear.
849
00:44:16,959 --> 00:44:18,559
You are here to help
my employees perform
850
00:44:18,583 --> 00:44:20,749
at their peak level.
851
00:44:20,750 --> 00:44:23,416
In any manner I see fit. You
don't like it, fire me.
852
00:44:23,417 --> 00:44:25,207
Pay me out. I agreed
to come back.
853
00:44:25,208 --> 00:44:27,499
I am back doing exactly
what I am paid to do.
854
00:44:27,500 --> 00:44:29,457
You made the deal, Bobby.
855
00:44:29,458 --> 00:44:31,250
You can get out of it any time.
856
00:44:44,083 --> 00:44:47,040
That was a neat trick you
pulled with the A.G.
857
00:44:47,041 --> 00:44:49,874
I mean, I've never seen
her flanked before.
858
00:44:49,875 --> 00:44:51,165
Impressive.
859
00:44:51,166 --> 00:44:54,624
All in the service of justice.
860
00:44:54,625 --> 00:44:56,833
Well, and the Southern District.
861
00:44:56,834 --> 00:44:57,750
Mm.
862
00:44:57,751 --> 00:44:59,833
Now you get to have
your moment...
863
00:44:59,834 --> 00:45:02,624
as well you should.
864
00:45:02,625 --> 00:45:07,082
The question is, what
will you do with it?
865
00:45:07,083 --> 00:45:09,374
Such ambitions are
far from my focus.
866
00:45:09,375 --> 00:45:12,208
I see a run for office.
867
00:45:14,083 --> 00:45:17,165
Is it possible you'll
go the other way?
868
00:45:17,166 --> 00:45:19,040
Cash out, go private?
That's not you.
869
00:45:19,041 --> 00:45:23,374
No. Sadly, I'm like you.
Public servant for life.
870
00:45:23,375 --> 00:45:27,666
Uh, and it's in that
role that I'm here.
871
00:45:27,667 --> 00:45:28,958
I have come across
872
00:45:28,959 --> 00:45:32,165
a wonderful young law
student, Emma Foley.
873
00:45:32,166 --> 00:45:34,958
She's at Cardoza. Smart.
Studious.
874
00:45:34,959 --> 00:45:37,874
And a clerkship with
you would, uh...
875
00:45:37,875 --> 00:45:40,374
Oh, slice that baby up.
876
00:45:40,375 --> 00:45:41,833
Thank you.
877
00:45:41,834 --> 00:45:46,082
Oh, I love the sound it
makes when they carve it.
878
00:45:46,083 --> 00:45:47,207
There you go.
879
00:45:47,208 --> 00:45:49,166
Uh. All right.
880
00:45:50,166 --> 00:45:51,667
That crackle.
881
00:45:52,834 --> 00:45:55,666
Look, if this young
lady is qualified,
882
00:45:55,667 --> 00:45:57,999
I'll consider her as I
would any other candidate.
883
00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:59,916
I recognize the last name.
884
00:45:59,917 --> 00:46:02,707
So I have a feeling if she were
really as super as you say,
885
00:46:02,708 --> 00:46:04,499
she'd already have a clerkship.
886
00:46:04,500 --> 00:46:06,582
Well, we're not talking
about appointing her
887
00:46:06,583 --> 00:46:07,833
to the Supreme Court.
888
00:46:07,834 --> 00:46:10,624
This is how things
are done, right?
889
00:46:10,625 --> 00:46:14,040
Not for me. Not anymore.
890
00:46:14,041 --> 00:46:15,361
I look at the way
things get done.
891
00:46:15,385 --> 00:46:19,207
The view changes when you
see things from the bench.
892
00:46:19,208 --> 00:46:20,416
Uh-huh.
893
00:46:20,417 --> 00:46:23,124
Favor-trading, deal-making,
894
00:46:23,125 --> 00:46:26,124
back channeling, patronage.
895
00:46:26,125 --> 00:46:28,666
I'll admit, I took advantage
every now and then
896
00:46:28,667 --> 00:46:30,707
when I was in the trenches.
897
00:46:30,708 --> 00:46:33,416
But... I lost my taste for it.
898
00:46:33,417 --> 00:46:36,457
True objectivity.
899
00:46:36,458 --> 00:46:37,458
It's the ultimate luxury.
900
00:46:37,459 --> 00:46:39,124
It's corrosive, Chuck.
901
00:46:39,125 --> 00:46:42,499
I mean, I went to law school
to help fix the system,
902
00:46:42,500 --> 00:46:43,833
not succumb to it.
903
00:46:43,834 --> 00:46:45,958
Sounds like you're
feeling the holy spirit.
904
00:46:45,959 --> 00:46:49,666
For the first time since
clerking for RBG.
905
00:46:49,667 --> 00:46:52,958
Which is why I'm careful
with my own clerks.
906
00:46:52,959 --> 00:46:54,119
This is very personal for me.
907
00:46:54,143 --> 00:46:57,374
I mean, I'm finally in a
position to do some good.
908
00:46:57,375 --> 00:46:58,833
Very inspiring.
909
00:46:58,834 --> 00:47:00,541
Just don't forget,
910
00:47:00,542 --> 00:47:02,499
it was the back channels
and deal-making
911
00:47:02,500 --> 00:47:05,457
that put you in that position.
912
00:47:05,458 --> 00:47:08,542
Remind me again, and this
is the last meal we share.
913
00:47:10,458 --> 00:47:12,040
Help yourself.
914
00:47:12,041 --> 00:47:13,542
Absolutely right.
915
00:47:15,417 --> 00:47:17,791
Thank you.
916
00:47:17,792 --> 00:47:21,165
I think you'll make an
excellent candidate, Chuck.
917
00:47:21,166 --> 00:47:25,416
I actually think you're built
for the political life.
918
00:47:25,417 --> 00:47:28,499
I mean, if I'm you,
I'd go for it.
919
00:47:28,500 --> 00:47:31,041
Mm.
920
00:47:33,875 --> 00:47:36,374
It wasn't the Governor
who called the shot.
921
00:47:36,375 --> 00:47:37,749
Sure, he controls Scolari.
922
00:47:37,750 --> 00:47:39,707
But this goes to who
controls the Governor,
923
00:47:39,708 --> 00:47:41,165
and that's Jack Foley.
924
00:47:41,166 --> 00:47:43,874
I know who that is... Old
steel and railroad money.
925
00:47:43,875 --> 00:47:45,833
One of the first
Western businessmen
926
00:47:45,834 --> 00:47:47,114
into Russia after the wall fell.
927
00:47:47,138 --> 00:47:50,457
But more than that, an
Albany machine man.
928
00:47:50,458 --> 00:47:52,499
His family goes all the
way back to Tweed.
929
00:47:52,500 --> 00:47:53,250
Huh.
930
00:47:53,251 --> 00:47:54,916
Foley's war chest got three
931
00:47:54,917 --> 00:47:56,582
of the last four Govs elected,
932
00:47:56,583 --> 00:47:57,791
along with half the Assembly.
933
00:47:57,792 --> 00:48:00,040
But it seems, in this case,
he focused on the casino.
934
00:48:00,041 --> 00:48:03,082
So, why would Foley
want to fuck me?
935
00:48:03,083 --> 00:48:06,374
Unclear. Look, it's like
that Marco kid said,
936
00:48:06,375 --> 00:48:08,249
this likely wasn't
a targeted strike.
937
00:48:08,250 --> 00:48:10,250
It was collateral on a
strike against someone else.
938
00:48:10,274 --> 00:48:13,624
It may actually be
random Albany bullshit.
939
00:48:13,625 --> 00:48:15,249
But we can't be sure it wasn't.
940
00:48:15,250 --> 00:48:16,250
No, we can't.
941
00:48:24,792 --> 00:48:26,624
I'm Tier two, which
means I can sign out
942
00:48:26,625 --> 00:48:28,165
during the day to
look for a job.
943
00:48:28,166 --> 00:48:30,249
But I don't want to
talk about this place.
944
00:48:30,250 --> 00:48:31,490
I want to hear about the world.
945
00:48:32,625 --> 00:48:35,666
Well...
946
00:48:35,667 --> 00:48:38,457
I'm having problems with
that bond I bought upstate.
947
00:48:38,458 --> 00:48:40,958
I saw.
948
00:48:40,959 --> 00:48:43,249
Albany moved the gaming license.
949
00:48:43,250 --> 00:48:44,624
You trying to get it back?
950
00:48:44,625 --> 00:48:48,124
It's too late. I
have to take action.
951
00:48:48,125 --> 00:48:51,165
The only way that I
can come out ahead,
952
00:48:51,166 --> 00:48:52,166
it's pretty grisly.
953
00:48:54,750 --> 00:48:58,583
Playing Torquemada's never fun.
954
00:49:07,708 --> 00:49:10,958
I'm still stuck on how the
whole license thing went down.
955
00:49:10,959 --> 00:49:13,290
It was supposed to
be a done deal.
956
00:49:13,291 --> 00:49:17,124
But the switch... it
tracks back to Jack Foley.
957
00:49:17,125 --> 00:49:19,791
What do you want to
know about Black Jack?
958
00:49:19,792 --> 00:49:21,582
What drives him. What moves him.
959
00:49:21,583 --> 00:49:24,249
Who he's close to.
960
00:49:24,250 --> 00:49:26,416
How I can get close to him.
961
00:49:26,417 --> 00:49:29,124
He's driven by
maintaining influence...
962
00:49:29,125 --> 00:49:30,000
naturally...
963
00:49:30,001 --> 00:49:33,416
and growing his
six-generation fortune
964
00:49:33,417 --> 00:49:35,833
and staying invisible
despite it all.
965
00:49:35,834 --> 00:49:38,624
Advisor to kings and princes.
966
00:49:38,625 --> 00:49:39,583
There was a time not long ago
967
00:49:39,584 --> 00:49:41,144
I could have put you
in a room with him.
968
00:49:41,168 --> 00:49:45,666
But I'm off his speed dial now.
969
00:49:45,667 --> 00:49:47,417
All the way off.
970
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,000
Roberto...
971
00:49:50,001 --> 00:49:53,207
what you're considering upstate,
972
00:49:53,208 --> 00:49:56,999
the vulture play, know this...
973
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:58,457
everybody's a Libertarian
974
00:49:58,458 --> 00:50:00,457
until it's their
town that's dying.
975
00:50:00,458 --> 00:50:03,707
Then a bailout only seems right.
976
00:50:03,708 --> 00:50:05,290
Before I ended up in here,
977
00:50:05,291 --> 00:50:07,833
I would've said to you,
978
00:50:07,834 --> 00:50:09,154
"Let it implode.
Raze the fucker."
979
00:50:09,178 --> 00:50:12,582
Let something new
grow in its place.
980
00:50:12,583 --> 00:50:14,374
Prop it up and
you're only delaying
981
00:50:14,375 --> 00:50:15,874
"the inevitable collapse."
982
00:50:15,875 --> 00:50:17,165
But now?
983
00:50:17,166 --> 00:50:18,833
You have to handle it right,
984
00:50:18,834 --> 00:50:21,332
or you'll be facing the
same torches and pitchforks
985
00:50:21,333 --> 00:50:22,582
that landed me in here.
986
00:50:22,583 --> 00:50:24,917
Except that what I'd be
doing isn't illegal.
987
00:50:27,166 --> 00:50:28,207
I did everything I could
988
00:50:28,208 --> 00:50:30,707
to make sure it
didn't come to this.
989
00:50:30,708 --> 00:50:32,708
But still it went bad.
990
00:50:34,667 --> 00:50:37,666
Just don't forget...
991
00:50:37,667 --> 00:50:39,332
if they hate you enough,
992
00:50:39,333 --> 00:50:42,165
they will find legal
grounds to fuck you.
993
00:50:42,166 --> 00:50:43,250
You know this.
994
00:50:50,375 --> 00:50:54,207
You're not gonna be able to
find out what I need to know.
995
00:50:54,208 --> 00:50:56,208
I'm gonna have to sit down
face-to-face with Foley.
996
00:50:56,232 --> 00:50:58,666
He'll be resistant.
997
00:50:58,667 --> 00:51:01,833
So start thinking of ways to
overcome that resistance.
998
00:51:01,834 --> 00:51:03,208
Will do.
999
00:51:13,583 --> 00:51:14,583
Yeah.
1000
00:51:15,750 --> 00:51:17,749
No, I wasn't.
1001
00:51:17,750 --> 00:51:19,417
But send him up.
1002
00:51:35,417 --> 00:51:37,750
I understand what
"vulture" means now, huh.
1003
00:51:39,542 --> 00:51:42,582
I know things didn't work out
the way we thought they would.
1004
00:51:42,583 --> 00:51:44,263
And I know this is a
bad situation for you.
1005
00:51:44,287 --> 00:51:46,582
But I got to ask you to please
1006
00:51:46,583 --> 00:51:49,749
not take it out on Marco's town.
1007
00:51:49,750 --> 00:51:51,416
You know you've got
a finder's fee
1008
00:51:51,417 --> 00:51:52,833
coming to you either way.
1009
00:51:52,834 --> 00:51:54,749
Come on, I don't give
a shit about that.
1010
00:51:54,750 --> 00:51:57,332
You can throw it right in
if it changes anything.
1011
00:51:57,333 --> 00:51:59,416
Bobby, I've known you
since you're a kid.
1012
00:51:59,417 --> 00:52:02,040
I don't know why you want
to hurt all of these people
1013
00:52:02,041 --> 00:52:04,040
who got so little as it is.
1014
00:52:04,041 --> 00:52:07,249
These people, they're just
like you while growing up.
1015
00:52:07,250 --> 00:52:09,207
Now you've got everything.
1016
00:52:09,208 --> 00:52:11,791
They're gonna have
less than nothing.
1017
00:52:11,792 --> 00:52:14,874
I can't have that on my head,
and you don't want it on yours.
1018
00:52:14,875 --> 00:52:17,124
I hear you, Bruno.
1019
00:52:17,125 --> 00:52:19,582
Like you said, you've known
me since I was a kid,
1020
00:52:19,583 --> 00:52:21,416
so you know I'm
telling you the truth
1021
00:52:21,417 --> 00:52:25,457
when I say I want
to avoid doing it.
1022
00:52:25,458 --> 00:52:27,583
I'm trying my best.
1023
00:53:22,208 --> 00:53:24,374
I saw Bruno down there.
1024
00:53:24,375 --> 00:53:25,999
He was here about the muni bond?
1025
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,542
Lobbying for Sandicot.
1026
00:53:33,417 --> 00:53:34,617
What do you think I should do?
1027
00:53:36,375 --> 00:53:40,207
You finally asking
me for my opinion?
1028
00:53:40,208 --> 00:53:41,834
I wasn't cutting you out.
1029
00:53:44,291 --> 00:53:46,833
I'm just trying to wrap
my head around all this.
1030
00:53:46,834 --> 00:53:49,125
But now I really need
to know what you think.
1031
00:53:53,333 --> 00:53:56,624
I can see how painful
this is for you.
1032
00:53:56,625 --> 00:53:59,417
It was all over your face when
you were talking to Bruno.
1033
00:54:03,500 --> 00:54:06,541
It's tough.
1034
00:54:06,542 --> 00:54:08,874
I just sank a shit ton
of money into a place
1035
00:54:08,875 --> 00:54:11,750
that will never be able
to repay its obligations.
1036
00:54:13,542 --> 00:54:16,541
But if we go soft, like
Bruno wants us to,
1037
00:54:16,542 --> 00:54:19,708
we'll lose the better part
of 500 million dollars.
1038
00:54:21,834 --> 00:54:26,916
Whereas if we do what it takes
to make the bond viable,
1039
00:54:26,917 --> 00:54:29,291
we're gonna clear
over $100 million.
1040
00:54:31,667 --> 00:54:35,374
I can see both sides of this.
1041
00:54:35,375 --> 00:54:37,095
Those people up there
are who we used to be.
1042
00:54:37,119 --> 00:54:40,285
That's what Bruno said.
1043
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,750
Did anyone ever help us,
or look out for us?
1044
00:54:47,625 --> 00:54:50,124
When my mother was
closing the blinds
1045
00:54:50,125 --> 00:54:52,999
so that bill collectors wouldn't
know that anyone was home?
1046
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:54,207
No.
1047
00:54:54,208 --> 00:54:57,707
The way we were brought up,
it was always them or us.
1048
00:54:57,708 --> 00:54:58,999
And it still is.
1049
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:03,249
That's what I think.
1050
00:55:03,250 --> 00:55:06,207
And like you said, Bobby...
1051
00:55:06,208 --> 00:55:09,124
in the end, everyone
else is cannon fodder.
1052
00:55:09,125 --> 00:55:12,958
So I say you go up there, and
you do what you got to do.
1053
00:55:12,959 --> 00:55:14,916
Cut off the gangrenous parts.
1054
00:55:14,917 --> 00:55:17,582
And then we go in with
charter schools and outrage,
1055
00:55:17,583 --> 00:55:18,958
for about $30 million.
1056
00:55:18,959 --> 00:55:20,249
We capture the tax write-off,
1057
00:55:20,250 --> 00:55:22,332
and those kids
will be better off
1058
00:55:22,333 --> 00:55:24,750
than their parents,
or we, ever were.
1059
00:55:27,542 --> 00:55:31,500
♪ AC/DC's "For Those
About to Rock" ♪
1060
00:55:45,917 --> 00:55:48,541
Before we go out, can you
order pizza for the kids?
1061
00:55:48,542 --> 00:55:50,624
Chinese tonight.
1062
00:55:50,625 --> 00:55:52,499
The one they like
doesn't deliver.
1063

I'll get it.
1065
00:55:56,917 --> 00:55:57,999
Seize all their assets...
1066
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:02,332
property, utilities, machinery,
vehicles, buildings.
1067
00:56:02,333 --> 00:56:06,082
Everything, even
Town fucking Hall.
1068
00:56:06,083 --> 00:56:08,040
Look to seize the
town's bank accounts,
1069
00:56:08,041 --> 00:56:09,458
payroll accounts, pension funds.
1070
00:56:18,458 --> 00:56:19,916
Do it.
1071
00:56:19,917 --> 00:56:22,833
They'll fucking agree to it
because they've got no choice.
1072
00:56:22,834 --> 00:56:25,874
And don't stop till we
get what we're owed.
