(WOLF HOWLING)

WOMAN: So you're new in town.

MAN: Just flew in from Ohio.

Oh, yeah? Ever been to New York before?

Just a class trip in high school.

Aw, it's the same as where you're from.

You know, typically, I don't rent a room

to someone who hasn't seen it.

But for you,

I made an exception.

You are such a nice boy.

Look at you.

Come on. Here we go.

You don't think maybe it's a little--

dirty?

Well, you know, it's nothing you can't clean up.

I mean, you're young, you're strong.

Hey, you can figure it out.

MAN: Are you kidding? The place is terrific.

- Woman: So you're happy? - Moving here was definitely the right choice.

Are you sure? I'm still worried.

- Everything's great. - Do you have enough space?

- I've got a great apartment. - Are you right downtown?

No, it's just outside the city, but it's great.

Well, it sounds nice. Is it clean?

- You'd love it. - Honey, I worry about you.

Mom, stop.

Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself.

Well, have you found a job yet?

I've got a bunch of interviews.

- Honey, I just-- well, maybe I'll-- - I'll be fine.

- Okay, sweetie. - Look, I've got to go.

- Okay, I love you. - Yeah.

- (KISSING SOUND) - I love you, too.

The only thing we can offer you is the secretary pool.

That's not what I really had--

well, the best we can offer is the secretary pool.

- You're not interested? - No, it's not that.

- It's just that I wanted to be-- - - you want to be a broker.

(LAUGHING) You always wanted to be a broker.

Yeah, pretty much my entire life.

Yeah, I was going to say, you always wanted to be a broker,

- but you've got no experience. - No experience? That's going to be tough.

It's gonna be tough.

We have nothing to offer you right now.

But I'll keep your resume on file

and call you if anything comes up.

Call you if anything comes up.

We'll let you know if something comes up.

Bad day at the office?

No office.

Can't get a job without experience,

but can't get experience without a job.

Ah, you want to play the street?

Wall street. You want to be a broker?

All my life.

Wow, really?

So when you were a kid,

instead of having a nightlight

you had a stock ticker?

- Jokes are free, right? - They are free.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's-- it's just been one of those kind of days.

So why do you want to be a broker?

There's so many more rewarding things you could do with your life.

Like?

Like tend bar.

(LAUGHS)

Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I promise. It just takes a while.

I will focus.

You can have all the time in the world.

Don't worry about it.

It's on the house.

- Really. - Thank you.

I'm Annabelle.

Jeff.

You seem like too nice of a guy to be a broker.

Is that why nobody's hiring me?

Maybe. Can you be a bit more of a prick?

- You're still joking. - I know.

I'm sorry.

So this is really, really, what you want to do with your life?

More than anything in the world.

You see those guys who just came in?

The one leading the pack is Dyson Keller.

He's a senior partner at wolfe brothers brokerage.

- Have you heard of them? - Yeah.

I didn't know wolfe brothers had an office here in New York.

MAN: Another round, boys, on my tab.

Here.

This is his number.

Call him tomorrow and tell him you spoke to me

and I said that he needs to sit down with you.

DYSON: Jeffrey Allen.

Nice resume. Dyson Keller.

Please, sit down.

So you know Annie Morris?

I just met her.

Well, normally, I would pass you off as someone more junior.

But she's she's an honorary member of the family.

She used to date one of our brokers, so she's--

she's great.

Bangable, isn't she?

Excuse me?

I said, "bangable, isn't she?"

You're looking at me like you can't believe I'd dare say that.

Let me tell you something. This is a predatory business.

In order to survive, you identify what you want

and go after it. Screw anyone who gets in your way.

- Yes, sir. - Lose the "sir" crap.

I'm looking for someone who can handle the job.

I do not need my ass kissed.

Jeffrey Allen.

I'm trying to determine if you have what it takes

to wear the ring. To be one of us.

- I think I do. - You think you do?

I know I do.

Ask me a question. I guarantee you I'll know the answer.

All right.

What do you know about tedril?

Tedril?

It's a biotech, so the odds are tougher,

but the rewards are greater.

Main focus is synthesizing amino acids.

No one cares what it does. Do I invest?

- No. - Why?

Because they haven't gotten their f.D.A. Approvals yet.

You could be investing in something that never works.

Hmm, good answer. But wrong.

They do have their approvals. They came out on Friday.

Anything else?

All right.

Let me give the 10-second pitch on us.

Wolfe brothers is the elite brokerage house on the street.

You have offices in London, Milan,

Sydney, Tokyo and Singapore. I know all about you.

Then you know we are the best of the best.

We know what we want and we go after it.

We're the only house not hit hard by September 11th

but that's because...

We don't make junior league mistakes like you just did.

I'm the managing partner here and I'm looking for someone

who's willing to make this job their life.

Is that you?

- Absolutely. - Good.

Then be here here at 7:15 on Monday.

And be prepared for anything. And I mean anything.

Wait a second. If I'm here,

then that means it's mine?

You'd be a trainee. If you make it through our program,

there's a possibility there may be a job for you.

Don't be too impressed, kid.

Monday.

Yes! Thank you, God!

MAN: Good morning. Welcome to wolfe brothers.

Every day starts at 7:15 A.M.

And it ends when it ends.

The week is 168 hours.

Monday to Monday.

You're here or you're out.

No questions, no exceptions.

No excuses.

A family member dies, too bad.

This is your family now.

Us. We're your clan.

Your pack.

If you haven't met him, Dyson's the king around here.

I'm his right hand.

Call me his queen and I'll show you the goddamn door.

Now, all of you,

you're here for one reason.

You want money.

Coin, cash, moolah.

You crave it, you want it.

More than sex. Better than love.

Let me tell you something--

you'd better goddamn love the money,

because it's a dog-eat-dog world out there.

You'd better be willing to claw, bite and scratch

your way to the top, because that's what it's going to take.

Wipe the word "can't" out of your mind.

"Can't" isn't in your vocabulary.

There's five of you here today.

In less than two weeks, there'll be one.

There's only one position.

Four of you are not going to make it.

Until then,

no backstabbing or you're out.

It's a cutthroat world outside,

but in here, we take care of our kin.

At all costs.

And if you're lucky, and you make it,

you'll join

and wear the wolfe brothers' ring.

And gentlemen, I shouldn't have to tell you,

that's what all of this is really about.

Now scram.

Jeff, right?

Vince degray.

Dyson told me about you.

I figure I'd keep you for myself.

You ready for this?

Yes.

Welcome aboard.

MAN: Yes, there are a lot of other brokerage houses.

I'm aware of that.

So go.

Just go if that's how you feel. We don't want your money.

You've got to trust me. Trust me, I'm telling you

exactly, that's why you've got to trust me.

It's a steal. It is.

No one should be buying it for that low.

But for you...

One week down.

What's all this?

It's the rule around here. If you work hard, you play hard.

Steak tartare.

Try it, it's a delicacy.

I'm not really into raw meat.

Oh, that's a mistake.

- You want a drink? - I'm all right.

Jeff, you need to relax.

Take a deep breath.

You need to turn your mind off for the night.

Vince, what are you, his mother?

Let him figure it out for himself.

He's my trainee.

Looks more like he's your bitch.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

You're a good kid. And if you work at it,

you will develop an instinct for it.

BUT THE KEY TO LIFE IS THIS: Focus on what you want,

seek it out and attack.

Nothing else matters. Nothing.

You want to be like us,

you've got to be a predator.

Focus, seek, attack.

- Thank you. - Now it's time for you to leave.

The trainees are not invited to the real party.

Attention trainees. It is bedtime.

I expect to see you all bright and early for a little clean up.

6:00 A.M. don't be late.

There will be plenty to clean up.

Focus, seek, attack.

Gentlemen.

I know we're a couple weeks away from the next real bash,

but tonight I think it's time we take a load off.

Enjoy ourselves.

Kick back and feast.

Let's party.

- Annie: We're closed. - Hi.

Hello.

I'm Jeff Allen. We met last week.

I remember.

I know this is late, but--

okay.

Ever since I saw you, I can't stop thinking about you.

I haven't had a free moment all week or I would've come by sooner.

Go out with me.

Or say something.

Anything really.

I'm really flattered.

Ow.

But I have a policy.

I don't date brokers.

I assume you got the job.

I did. Thank you, by the way.

But getting back to this,

can you make an exception about going out with brokers?

Sorry.

But for what it's worth,

I liked the whole dashing, romantic thing.

Look, I like you.

Go out with me. So what? I'm a broker.

My ex was a broker.

And what?

Was he a bad guy or something?

No. No, he wasn't a bad guy.

Not at all.

It's just-- it's the job.

I saw what it did to him.

It changed him.

- I'm not your ex. - I know.

Just go out with me. Just once.

If it doesn't work out, fine,

I'll stop bothering you.

But you owe it to yourself.

You owe it to brokers everywhere.

- That was cute. - Thank you.

And it almost worked.

Come on.

What are you doing right now?

Nothing.

Then walk me home.

JEFF: This is what I've wanted to do my entire life.

- It's like, in my blood. - Money is in your blood?

No, the desire to make it.

See, I didn't grow up with a lot of it.

We weren't poor, you know, but I never really had much.

I mean, everything I own from my answering machine to my alarm clock

I've had since... Forever.

And I had to pay my own way through college.

Loans and the whole deal.

And I know that that broke my dad's heart.

All he ever wanted to do was take care of us.

And I don't want it to be like that.

I want to take care of them.

Anything that they want.

I don't want them to ever miss anything.

(THUNDER RUMBLES)

That's sweet.

- That's the kiss of death. - No.

Second only to "nice" in being utterly insurmountable.

Look, I appreciate

this whole hard-sell thing you're doing,

but why can't we just start out being friends?

Because you probably have a lot of friends, and then who am I

but some guy who wanted something more and you said no.

I didn't say no.

I said no, if you were going to be a broker.

But I didn't say no.

See, I don't accept that.

You wouldn't be going out with the job, you'd be going out with me.

See? You brokers are always relentless.

Let me think about it.

Okay?

It's late and I'm tired.

Good night.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(CLOCK CHIMING)

(WOLF HOWLING)

(TEARING)

(WOMEN SCREAMING)

(KNOCKING)

I said I didn't want to go out with you.

What?

You look beautiful.

You can come in.

Careful, it's hot.

It's very hot.

I told you, I'm not exactly a gourmet.

But going out to some fancy restaurant would've been too expensive,

so I hope you like it.

- Do you like it? - Mm-hm.

I'm glad.

Water! Water! Water!

Do you have any water?

- Is it too spicy? - Do you have some water?

Didn't you test it along the way?

I didn't know. It was my first time.

Wait, wait, wait. Don't be mad.

I got you something.

You what?

All right don't--

don't be all weird about this, okay?

I just--

I felt bad about last night

with all of my issues with the wolfe brothers and everything.

And I just--

I passed by this antique shop in soho

and I saw this and I hope that you like it.

It's silver.

You can return it if you don't like it.

I just I thought that you'd need something,

you know, nice, to write down all your orders with.

Say something.

I don't know what to say.

Then shut up and kiss me.

Come here.

- Annie: I'm still hungry. - Jeff: Really?

'Cause dinner was filling.

Screw you.

Not on an empty stomach.

What?

Promise me...

You'll never let the job come between us.

- What? - The job.

It can consume you. I've seen it before.

If we're going to do this, just-- just promise me that--

- I promise. - And you won't get sucked in

- and forget who you really are. - Okay.

- Promise. - I promise.

Okay.

Come here.

If this is our first date, is date two the Spanish inquisition?

I do have to go back there Monday.

No, don't go back. Stay here.

That's a little impractical.

No, work here.

But I like working there.

You've got to trust me.

Trust me. I'm telling you.

It's a steal. No one should be buying it for that low.

VINCE: You want money.

Coin, cash, moolah.

Better goddamn love the money.

That's what all of this is really about.

DYSON: We are the best of the best.

I'm looking for someone

who's willing to make this job their life.

Is that you?

You guys wanted to see me?

VINCE: Yeah, come in, Jeffrey.

Do you know why we asked to see you?

You want to tell us about your performance?

About my performance?

Are you proud of what you've done here?

I don't--

do you think the way you've carried yourself reflects well on you?

On us?

Can you give us one reason to keep you on here?

One reason.

Wait a minute. Are you guys firing me?

- Do you want us to? - No!

No, I've worked really hard here!

I put in 110%, damn it.

- I want to stay! - Good.

Because we want you to stay.

And we want you to be a broker.

- You've got your ring. - Oh my God.

Congratulations, Jeff.

Congratulations, Jeff.

That is fantastic.

I know. I can't believe it.

Annabelle Morris.

You look great.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Now I need to borrow our boy here.

We got some business to take care of.

- I'll talk to you later. - Come on, big guy, you're up.

10 shots of whiskey.

- These aren't all for me? - This right here is your bonus.

$1,000 for every shot you finish.

That I finish tonight?

That you finish in the next 10 minutes.

- And no puking. - I can't.

"Can't" is not in your vocabulary, Jeff.

- (BREATHES DEEP) - Here we go.

Number one.

One.

And two down. Go for three. Go for three.

Three.

You're doing fine, Jeff.

- Yeah! - Come on, man. Show us the juice.

- Two more. - Eight.

And number nine coming at you.

- Two more. - Go for number nine. Number nine.

- One more, Jeffy. - You're almost home, Jeff.

Almost home.

Show us what you're made of.

- Yeah. - All right!

- Oh yeah. - (RETCHING)

(WOLVES HOWLING)

(URINATING)

- Dyson, what the hell are you doing? - Taking a piss.

- He's the king. - It's my world

and I'm just letting everybody else know it.

Jeff! Jeff, come here.

Say it with me now--

"we work hard

and we play hard." Say it with me now.

We work hard and we play hard.

Hey, are you having a good time?

Yeah.

Is it what you always wanted? Good.

(GROWLING)

(WOLVES HOWLING)

(ALARM BUZZING)

( Horn honks, car alarm blaring )

(HORN HONKING)

(SIREN WAILING)

(APPLAUSE)

How you feeling there, sporto?

- Drained. - Well, take it easy.

Dyson left a little something for you.

Bottoms up.

It takes time to develop your instincts. You've got to concentrate.

Keep them going while you focus in on what you're trying to get across.

JEFF: Okay.

Focus.

Ahem. Hello, Mrs. preminger?

Hi, my name's Jeff Allen, and I'm calling from

the wolfe brothers brokerage house in New York.

I definitely sense a rise here, yes.

I spoke to a friend inside the company

and they are definitely expecting a merger between ascent or trilogy,

which of course makes this a gold mine.

JEFF: No, no, no. Don't-- don't hang up.

Look, I'm talking about a locked-in

15% return on investment. Guaranteed.

You don't want to make money?

Focus, Jeff. You've got the instinct.

You've just got to feel it.

I'm offering to make you and your wife some easy money,

but if that doesn't interest you...

Let them go if they're not interested.

- Trust that they'll come back. - Okay.

I understand.

What is money, really, right?

Exactly. Why not start off small?

(ANIMAL GROWLING)

Look at him. Nice suit.

Dyson.

How are you?

- Money hungry. - That's what I like.

So I hear you went out last night with the guys.

- Saw Annie. - You heard about that?

I heard you were making out with her.

That's a bit awkward for me.

You see, she and I...

Well, there was something between us once.

Maybe she didn't tell you.

But, it's awkward for me that you're hanging out with her.

- You're serious. - As a heart attack.

We're all in this together.

I don't have to remind you of that.

Of course not.

I think it's probably best if you...

Stay away from her.

That's crazy. I was with Tyler, you know that.

What's he talking about then?

He liked me and I said no.

It was right after Tyler passed away.

He comforted me.

And?

And nothing.

That he would say something like--

like you're stepping on his territory,

like I was his once.

I don't even think that we kissed.

So what did you say?

- I didn't know what to say. - Jeff.

- He's my boss. - If you won't, I will.

- He can't get away with this. - No, leave it alone.

I can handle this.

45,000, it is. Sold.

And the new guy scores again.

- I'm on fire. - You feel it, don't you?

- It? - That thing.

You can't explain, but you're inside their head.

Oh, I'm in there.

And I'm scoring again and again.

- The kid is amazing. - Before we all get too worked up,

maybe you want to spend a little more time with your ledger.

- Your forms are a mess. - What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the fact that the last three orders were incomplete.

And nobody here looks good if their orders aren't put through right.

There's nothing wrong with these.

Just do it right.

Wait a minute. Why are you riding me?

Riding you?

I'm not treating you any differently than I treat anyone else.

Just fix it and let's move on.

That's bullshit.

Excuse me?

This is about Annie, isn't it?

Do you want to do this?

Not really.

But I don't want you all up in my face either.

Listen to me very carefully

because I don't want to have this conversation with you ever again.

Every second of every day

I make money.

(INHALES) Breathe.

There, I just made a $1,000 dollars.

And that's how it is, all day, everyday.

But every second I spend

explaining to some kid like you how to do his job

is wasted time,

which in turn is wasted money.

Now, I can turn my head and look the other way once...

But get me angry,

and I'll rip your goddamn head clean off and eat it.

Try to remember,

I own you.

- You don't own me. - No?

No.

(URINATING)

I own everything in here.

Now...

Go make me some money.

Oh boy.

Just calm down.

Calm down.

What's happening to me?

- Nothing. - This is not nothing!

It's just natural.

You're going through a lot of changes right now.

You're just a pup and Dyson's just trying to train you right.

There are going to be growing pains.

I don't know what you're saying.

Dyson's just trying to bury me because of Annie.

No, he's not.

He's just being tough with you, so you know how things work around here.

He's jealous of me. He's jealous because I'm dating her and he couldn't.

- He's not jealous, Jeff. - Sure he is.

Believe me. If he really wanted her, he can have her.

He could.

Hey, look at me.

Isn't this what you wanted your entire life?

- Yeah. - Of course it is.

And I'm trying to help you get it.

That's my job.

Thanks.

Whether you like it or not, Dyson's your boss.

Don't try to fight that.

Try to find a way to work with that.

Jeff?

What?

Take a deep breath.

Let it go. Let it blow over.

Thanks.

(KNOCKING)

- Hey. - Hello.

How was your day?

(SNIFFS)

You saw someone today.

A man.

What are you talking about?

- I smell cologne. - (THUNDER RUMBLES)

What do you mean, you smell cologne?

When did you get all freaky?

It's Dyson's, isn't it?

What are you--

oh, this is crazy.

- Is it? - Yes, it is.

I didn't see Dyson.

- Then what do I smell? - Nothing.

What has gotten into you?

Did you follow me?

No.

- I think you should leave. - What?

- You heard me. - Why?

You saw Dyson today, didn't you?

- No! - You're lying.

This is crazy. Why are you doing this?

Why are you lying to me?

What am I supposed to say?

You want me to say that I saw him?

- Fine, I saw him. - Why did you lie?

- Jeff, stop it. - Why did you lie to me?

Because it was nothing.

It was meaningless.

Jesus Christ. He just--

- he wanted to-- - he wanted to what?

He wanted to talk.

That's it? Talk about what?

He wanted to see if I was okay.

He's barely seen me since Tyler's death.

He wanted to know about us.

You and I.

I told him we were happy.

He wished us well. That was all.

If that was it, then why didn't you just tell me?

Maybe I didn't want you to get all upset

like you are right now.

I'm not upset, Annie.

I just want to know why you lied to me.

Did something happen?

Nothing happened.

Okay.

Jeff.

Jeff, wake up.

I'm sorry about before.

I didn't want to hurt you.

Look at me for a second.

What happened?

This afternoon, Dyson didn't just come by Harry's.

He hit on me.

Nothing happened.

It's just I--

you were so upset earlier I couldn't tell you.

I'm sorry.

I want things to work out here.

So do I.

I don't know why it is, I just--

I'm--

I look at you and I can't lie.

I can't keep things from you.

You're the first real person that I've met in so long

and I-- I won't ever lie to you again.

- Ever. I promise. - It's okay.

It's not.

I'm sorry.

VINCE: Gentlemen, are you ready for the weekend?

Smile, the week's over.

(SNIFFS)

Wait a second.

Well?

It's fantastic.

How's your appetite in that department?

Very pretty.

They're beautiful.

You want them, don't you?

Do I? Well, yeah, but--

no buts, Jeff.

It's time we work on your predatory instinct.

Focus, seek, attack.

Yes.

They're yours for the taking.

I can't.

Yes, you can.

But the night is young.

We can feast on them later.

Hello, little one.

About this week...

- I don't want to talk about it. - But I do.

You're still growing here.

You haven't fully developed your instinct yet.

In time, you will appreciate what I'm doing for you.

- Yeah. - It's fine you're resisting.

Part of growing is resisting.

I'm resisting because you still haven't apologized

- for going to see Annie. - And I'm not going to.

We have no outside relationships here.

Your only relationship is to us.

We work as a pack.

So you can go and try to make a move on my girlfriend?

She's not yours.

If she belongs to you, she belongs to me.

You work for me.

Everything you have is because of me.

Let that sink in.

Look, I put in my time here

and I do good work, but this isn't my life.

You agreed that it would be.

Just like it is for the rest of us.

It's time you realized, Jeff, you are a predator now.

The old rules do not apply.

Instead of gathering food,

turn your instincts

towards the almighty dollar.

Is that how you look at this?

It's how you should look at this.

Stop fighting and accept it.

We are hunters.

We hunt money, power, women.

We bend humans to our whim.

We control their outmoded minds.

We are animals, Jeff.

Animals don't believe in monogamy.

We mark territory and we protect it.

- Well, that's not me. - Really?

So you're not protecting Annie?

You're not fighting me over your purchase slips?

Think about it, Jeff. It's all there right in front of you.

You're changing, little by little.

Maybe you find you have a new found affinity for red meat.

Or maybe you can hear things.

Far, far away things.

Or smell things.

Tiny obscure things.

You're an animal, Jeff,

just like the rest of us.

I'm not like you.

I think it's time young Jeffrey comes into his own.

Do you feel that surge coursing through your body?

Can you feel it?

Makes you want to break out.

Don't fight it.

Let yourself go, Jeff.

Let it go.

Let your emotions carry you.

No!

(ANIMALS GROWLING)

(GROANING)

The rest of humanity dreams of success.

We make the success happen.

You dreamt about the money.

You wanted it so badly.

We've given you the ability to go for it, Jeff.

To claw, scratch and kill for it.

Don't be scared.

I'll take care of you, show you what you need.

You'll learn how to adapt, Jeff.

It's going to be tough for you tonight.

So much so fast.

Full moon and all.

But Jeff, you won't believe how fantastic it can be.

Breathe.

Long slow deep breaths.

Good.

You're not alone anymore, Jeff.

You're one of our pack.

Look at her. In red.

- What about her? - Smell.

(INHALES)

I don't smell anything.

You will.

(INHALES)

What is that I smell?

Pheromones.

People give off pheromones all the time.

If we're happy we give off a certain kind--

angry, a different kind.

Aroused, even a different kind.

Once you fully inherit your instinct,

you'll be able to sense them.

That woman... is aroused.

You sure?

Watch.

(ANIMAL GROWLING)

How was that?

I don't know. Jeff, how was that?

Did you like that?

It was-- ahem. Yeah.

You're surprised?

No, it's just--

I told you.

She wants you.

I can't.

VINCE: Can't isn't in your vocabulary, Jeff.

(GROWLING)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(ARGUING)

( Answering machine beeps )

ANNIE: Hey, Jeff. It's 11:00.

Where are you? You better have a good excuse.

Call me.

(BEEPS)

ANNIE: Jeff, I don't know where you are.

I've been calling you all night and you're not anywhere.

I'm worried about you.

I hope nothing is wrong. Call me.

- (BEEPS) - Jeff, it's Vince.

Meet me at the office at midnight.

Be there.

VINCE: You look like you've seen a ghost.

I have a girlfriend.

How am I going to explain to her what happened last night?

You're not.

Things are different now, Jeff.

We weren't made for monogamy.

Humans have convinced themselves that this is what they need.

You need to stop thinking like a human.

You're better than that now.

Better reflexes. Stronger senses.

Come, I'll show you.

VINCE: There's so much to appreciate, Jeff.

You'll be faster now.

You'll feel like the world has slowed down for you.

You'll sense things that humans won't,

see things that pass by before they ever realize they're gone.

How?

This is the instinct.

At first it will feel like a drug,

an adrenalin rush.

It's a high that humans will never understand.

At first, you may not even remember

what you did the night before,

but soon you'll grow to appreciate how it works.

You feed off your emotions,

each of them experienced with a greater power.

All of it-- drive, stamina,

speed, senses, the hunger--

they will come to you in time.

Just like all of us in your bloodline.

We grow, expand.

Let yourself go, Jeff.

Draw on the power of the Alpha male.

The Alpha male?

Our leader.

Everything we are is because of our leader.

Remember that, Jeff.

And the moon?

It's a constant reminder of our dominance.

Why do I feel so connected to it?

It's your energy, your sustenance.

I feel so strong.

Of course you do.

But a warning,

you will feel the predator in you all the time.

The beast wanting to get out.

But you must control the beast.

Never let anger overwhelm you.

If you lose your control,

in your moments of rage, you will cry out

with a bloodlust like you've never felt before.

Okay.

Nothing is out of reach.

Ever.

Remember that.

This is the secret of success.

This is who you are.

You are now one of the wolves of wall street.

VINCE: Tell me about her.

Is she single?

- Yes. - Are you sure?

She's recently broken up.

Good.

And over there?

The one on the right is looking.

She's available.

And the other one?

I get nothing.

- Vince: She's gay. - Yeah?

Let's find out.

Where are we going?

- We're going to go talk to them. - Vince.

She may not like men, but she wants me.

How?

You can do anything, Jeff. Just focus.

(ECHOING) Seek. Attack.

(GROWLING)

I've got the Sunday paper.

I would have waited all morning.

I left 14 messages, Jeff.

I feel like a stalker.

You don't owe me an answer, but it would be really nice

if you would explain to me

why you haven't returned my phone calls.

I was out.

And that's it?

Yeah, well, I thought we were a couple,

but what do I know?

Yeah, what do you know?

What is happening to you?

I got tied up with work, that's all.

Honest.

Vince called me in.

A lot of things going on.

That's it,

I swear.

Then why didn't you just say so?

I thought I did.

I feel like...

Someone just took my boyfriend

and replaced him with some sort of--

some sort of what?

Some sort of monster.

(SIGHS)

Nobody replaced me.

In the future,

when you know a woman's mad at you...

Lead with flattery.

I'm sorry.

I was a jerk.

It won't happen again. I promise.

Please don't be mad at me.

(GROWLING)

(CHANTING) Focus, seek, attack...

(MAN SCREAMING)

What time is it?

Go back to sleep.

What time?

It's still early.

Did you get any sleep at all?

Hey, tonight is Brittany's 25th,

and I know you're really busy,

but all my friends keep asking about you.

And you're never around so it would be really nice

if you'd just stop by.

Jeff?

It's tonight?

Yes.

I really want you to meet everybody.

What happened to these?

- There's blood all over them. - I'll be a little late.

It's just work.

That's okay.

I haven't heard from you all day.

Still digesting.

Jeff, if you need to talk--

I'll be fine. I just need a little time.

Okay.

How was last night?

It was awkward.

Yeah, the moon was still pretty full.

I'll bet you were hungry.

I think so.

It's natural.

But I'm here if you need me.

Yeah, I know.

Thanks.

Yeah, Jeff.

You shouldn't spend too many nights

alone in a row.

What are you doing tonight?

I've got plans.

- Jeff-- - I'll be fine.

Be careful.

You don't know how to control yourself yet.

Okay?

Is he all right?

Yeah.

You sure about that?

Mostly.

♪ ...nobody can deny ♪

♪ for she's a jolly good fellow ♪

♪ for she's a jolly good fellow ♪

♪ for she's a jolly good fellow ♪

- ♪ that nobody can deny. ♪ - Happy Birthday.

Jeff, over here.

- Hey. - Hi.

I'm so glad you made it.

This is rob. I've told you all about him.

- Hi. - Nice to meet you.

- I've heard a lot about you. - Good, I hope.

For the most part.

Do you want something to drink?

You look like you could use one, man.

That would be great. What do you want?

Jeff just came right from work.

Something strong.

Thanks.

- Are you okay? - Long day.

- You sure? - Yeah.

Okay. I want you to meet the birthday girl.

Brittany, this is Jeff.

- Hey. - Happy Birthday.

Thanks, I feel like I practically know you.

Lot of beautiful women here tonight, huh?

Like to bang me a few of them. Know what I mean?

- What's this? - Just talking.

- Yeah, you were just talking with my girl. - Jeff.

- Hey. - You're trying to bang her, aren't you?

- Excuse me? - Jeff, stop it.

Look, I asked you a question.

We were just talking.

You were just talking. You were just talking to my girl!

Chill out, man. We were just having a conversation.

- No, you weren't! - Jeff, we were just talking.

- He was trying to play you! - Stop it, we were just talking.

You are scaring me.

(GROWLING)

Hey, hey, hey, asshole.

I said, hey. I'm talking to you.

You still want a piece of me now?

(GROWLS)

Still want a piece of me now, asshole?

Oh my God!

Oh my God.

Get away from me!

Annie.

(GROWLING)

- (ANNIE SCREAMING) - (HORN BLARING)

Annie?

Annie?

Hey.

- Oh my God. - Get away from me.

I'm-- I'm sorry.

Get away!

This is what happened to Tyler.

(GROWLING)

They told me that he was killed by a mugger.

(GROWLING)

He was walking around in the middle of the night

in a $5,000 suit

and it seemed reasonable.

It made sense that he would get mugged.

(SCREAMING)

But then I had to go...

And identify the body.

And I saw what they did to him.

(SCREAMING)

He was ripped to shreds.

A mugger.

Can you believe that?

And all of a sudden, it didn't make sense.

I mean, who could do that?

How could anyone just...

And now I get it.

They killed him.

Those monsters.

I'm so sorry.

No, you're not. You're one of them.

I'm not one of them. Please don't say that.

I didn't mean for this to happen.

You didn't mean for what?

What, Jeff? What didn't you mean to have happen?

You wanted to be like them.

You wanted it all.

- No, I didn't want this. - No?

You didn't want to turn me into someone like you?

In a million years, no.

Look what you've done to me.

I am sorry.

I am so, so sorry.

So I should just forgive you?

Tell me what I can do to make it better.

I'll do anything. I swear. I swear.

There is nothing you can do.

Don't say that.

It's true, isn't it?

I don't know.

I guess.

Leave.

No, leave wolfe brothers.

If you really want to prove to me that you're done with all of this, then leave.

I can't leave. They'll kill me.

And if they think we're still together they'll kill you, too.

Isn't there an alternative?

Maybe.

We get everything from the Alpha wolf,

all of our senses, our instinct.

Who's the Alpha?

Dyson. It has to be.

If we could just stop his bloodline,

then maybe we have a chance.

Is this going to work?

It's got to.

And you and I,

we're together on this.

No going back.

There's no going back.

You know anywhere where we can find any silver bullets?

No.

There has to be something else.

JEFF: I have an idea.

VINCE: Listen to me, it's a good price.

Buy it.

No, no, no. You're not listening to me.

I want you to listen.

Listen very carefully because I'm only going to say this once.

And then I'm going to hang up and put through the purchase order.

JEFF: Can I talk to you for a sec?

You're going to buy 10,000 shares.

And you're going to trust me because I've never steered you wrong before.

And you're not going to look back, ever.

Is that clear?

Sold.

That could be you someday.

What's up?

Is there someplace private we could talk?

Yeah, sure.

Is everything all right? We missed you yesterday.

Yeah, about that...

What is it?

I want out.

Excuse me?

I want out. This isn't for me.

I don't think I heard you.

You want out?

I thought this was your life's dream, Jeff.

It was. But not anymore.

So that's it?

Look, I'm sorry.

We've invested money and time.

You've become one of us. I'm not going to let you walk out that door.

Vince, I can't do this.

"Can't" isn't in your vocabulary.

- That's Dyson talking. - No, this is me.

This is all of us.

Vince, stop. I thought you were my friend.

- I'm more than your friend. - Then help me out.

I am helping. You're a member of the pack.

I'm not turning my back on my own family.

No, you're not my family.

Yes, I am. I love you like family.

I take care of you.

Let's not do this.

I'm walking out that door.

I just figured I owed you a goodbye.

You owe me more than that.

Jeff, please don't do this.

Please.

Goodbye, Vince.

Jeff, you have to know--

there's only one way out of here.

I wouldn't try it.

I might say the same to you.

That's all right.

I want him dead by nightfall.

- (RINGING) - (BEEPS)

Annie, it's me. If you're there, pick up.

I did it. We're going to need to leave right now,

because they're coming after us.

I love you.

Well, isn't that sweet?

- Hello, Jeff. - Who is this?

- Three guesses. - Where is she?

- Where's Annie? - Sorry,

she's a little tied up right now.

Let me talk to her.

You sound frightened, Jeff.

- Oh, I'm not frightened. - Oh, no?

Well, then what is it?

You know, I'm trying to imagine how it must feel

when someone disappears on you.

Help me understand.

Vince, what you trying to prove?

VINCE: I'm not trying to do anything.

You left us. And quite frankly, that doesn't happen.

Let her go.

Maybe after you and I have a little talk,

man to man,

maybe I'll consider it.

Look, damn it, I'll do anything. Just let her go.

You see, Jeff?

If we'd really taught you well,

you'd know you don't have any leverage to negotiate.

Tell me where you want me to go.

The office. 30 minutes.

(HOWLING)

Good of you to make it.

I'm here. Now let her go.

No, we're not to that point yet.

I thought we had a deal.

So did we. Barnes, search him.

He's clean.

Jeffrey...

Help me understand something, because I don't.

We offered you everything you ever wanted--

money, power, all of it.

And now you turn your back on us.

No one told me.

Never told you what,

that everything in life has consequences?

It's not hard to appreciate, Jeffrey.

You had choices.

You chose this.

No, I didn't.

You wanted to be like us, Jeff.

And that was a mistake.

Yes, it was.

Just like coming back here tonight was a mistake.

There's no mistakes here tonight.

- No? - No.

You can't think you're leaving here alive.

If there's one thing you guys taught me,

it's that "can't"

isn't in my vocabulary.

Come on, Jeffrey. Let's be reasonable.

It's you who's not leaving here alive.

(GROWLING)

The first thing I ever said to you, Jeffrey,

I take care of my kin at all costs.

Your kin? Dyson wasn't--

this is my pack.

No one messes with my pack.

You're the Alpha?

I made you.

(GROWLING)

(MAN SCREAMING)

(GROANING)

(MAN SCREAMING)

No!

Miss me?

You didn't actually think I would just

let you get away, did you?

My pack,

my everything,

you took my life from me!

(GROWLING)

(ROARING)

Well, that's one way of quitting.

Thanks.
