English, for a girl who
wants to study in America.

Hey, my English is as good as yours.

Three weeks away,

and I still don't have my dream dress.

We discussed it,

and because it's a
once-in-a-lifetime event...

and only 'cause it's
a once-in-a-lifetime event...

you may spend 500.

And that's shoes and
everything else included.

And no negotiation.

Okay, but... What did I say

about negotiation? But this night will

literally go down in history.

And we can afford it.

Mom,

you can pick five of those
“formative books”

you want me to read. I'll have them done

by my birthday for shoes separate.

(CHUCKLES) Okay,

have it your way.

Eight books, English,

at my discretion,
for 500, shoes separate.

Six.

(PHONE BEEPS)

Ah, I have to...

- Got to go.
- Got to go.

Yep.

Bye, Mommy.

♪ Been watchin' you all night,
night, night, night ♪

♪ 'Cause, girl, you look
so right, right, right, right ♪

♪ I see you gettin' down,
down, down, down... ♪

Oh, sorry.

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello?

_

(CHOKING)

_

_

_

_

_

_

_

Her airway's obstructed

and her heart's racing
from the epinephrine.

I'm a nurse.

(ELECTRICITY BUZZING)

TESS: Help! Help, someone!

Help!

(SIREN WAILING)

When's the last time
you were whisked away

on a private jet by a client

who wouldn't even give you their name?

This is a first.

Hello, we're here to see Daniel.

Not much of a talker.

Or the staff were told to keep quiet.

ZARA: Hmm.

Hello.

- I'm Daniel.
- Eric Beaumont.

Zara Hallam and Oliver Yates.

Right.

I need your assurance this will
remain entirely confidential.

Goes without saying.

Please...

Uh, earlier today,

my daughter Abby was abducted.

We received this.

This is my daughter. The other woman is

a bystander who tried to help.

What does the message say, please?

It says “Two million euros.
Wait for instructions.”

I don't have access
to that kind of money.

Not at the drop of a hat.

My wife Lana does through a family trust.

That explains the
cloak-and-dagger routine.

Your wife is Lana Glas?

Lana Glas, as in Lana Glas?

As in soon to be
the first person of color

elected prime minister
of the Netherlands.

If the polls are right,
but there is a problem.

Lana's made a public vow.

She'll never negotiate
with terrorists or kidnappers.

♪ ♪

DANIEL: Can you negotiate
without my wife's consent?

ERIC: It's not a deal breaker,

but we like to have both
parents on the same page.

Well, I'm not sure that's possible.

Are you not on good terms?

We were, until today.

Look, we both lost
our tempers this morning.

I called her... things
I shouldn't have called her.

The irony is, this is all wrapped up in

what I love about Lana.

She's married to her principles.

This isn't about the election.

She really believes that paying ransoms

only encourages more kidnappings.

Sounds like a formidable woman.

Yeah, well, for the first time

in our life together, I wish she wasn't.

Does Lana know you've hired me?

DANIEL: That's what started
our fight this morning.

Hopefully, you'll be
more convincing than I was.

Daniel, who's our guest?

Eric Beaumont, private negotiator. Hi.

Cynthia Walker,
Lana Glas' chief of staff.

It would be best
if you left the building.

I realize the optics are a concern.

It would suggest that Lana's
willing to negotiate,

- which is not true.
- Cynthia,

are you really going to try to stop me

from bringing my guest to see my wife?

No.

But let me put it this way...

Lana's not going to negotiate.

And your presence here is
putting Abby at risk

by suggesting that she'll pay a ransom.

She won't.

Negotiation doesn't always mean
money changes hands.

He's handled hundreds of negotiations.

I have handled hundreds
of negotiations as well.

With politics on the line, or lives?

Ma'am, they're ready.

For what?

You're expecting contact
from the kidnappers?

It's not your concern.

I'm working for Abby's father,

and his rights aren't diminished

by Lana's position or yours.

You strike me as someone smart enough

to never turn down an asset.

- I am an asset.
- MAN: They've called.

You can come in. I do the talking.

Thank you.

_

KIDNAPPER (OVER PHONE): I want
someone who speaks English.

Who am I speaking with?

Not your concern.

I want to speak to Lana Glas.

It would be best for you to consider that

we have all the resources
of the government mobilized

to find Abby.

Think about what that means.

Turning yourself in is your only option.

He's making a video call.

Putting Lana Glas on
the line is your only option.

DANIEL: Oh, God.

If you fire, you're
giving up your leverage.

You've put too much effort into this.

- Ten seconds.
- Cynthia.

Offer him something.
Doesn't have to be money.

I can offer you something
more valuable than money.

I can promise you your freedom.

If you release Abby now,
unharmed, we won't pursue you.

Five seconds.

You need to buy time.

Tell him if they don't
hurt Abby, you'll speak to Lana.

- You'll see what you can do.
- Right.

I can make you an offer.

Let me speak to Lana first.

Speak to her.

Then drop the money
in a place we'll tell you.

You have 24 hours,
until 10:00 tomorrow night,

or we pull the trigger.

(QUAVERING)

(PHONE RINGING)

Hi.

Of course.

(CLEARS THROAT)

The minister would like
to speak with you.

Thanks.

If you, uh, think of anything else,

feel free to give me a call.

And feel better.

Okay. Danke.

So, the bodyguard's all torn up.

Metrics say he's not involved. You?

No luck.

Apparently, when the Dutch
government seizes

a store's CCTV, they don't share it.

But I did find out a second ambulance

arrived a few minutes after the first.

Which means the first one was fake.

Which takes planning.

The bodyguard suggests
the guys in the ambulance

were working for someone else.

He also said the peanut allergy
wasn't widely known.

But these kidnappers knew.

Mm.

Lana Glas is minister of foreign affairs.

I'm guessing she's not
making a huge salary.

How much is that family trust worth?

Something like 50 million.

So, why ask for two million
from a woman who's worth 50?

TESS: I just need to see she is okay.

(DOOR OPENS)

Five minutes.

You okay?

I wouldn't go right to “okay,”
but I can breathe.

You still sound a little wheezy.

Can I...?

(CLEARS THROAT)

I heard them.

They want a ransom from your mom.

She'll pay it, right?

She'll get us both out of here?

What's the matter?

My mom's Lana Glas.

Wow. I didn't realize.

She's made promises
about not paying ransoms.

And she believes it.

She won't pay.

But you're her kid.

You don't know my mom.

She's really that cold?

It's not cold, it's just...

(SNIFFLES)

...she has these crazy high principles.

And she pushes herself hard.

And me.

I love her, but...

Lana Glas' daughter
can't be average, right?

_

_

_

_

This is Eric Beaumont.

I'm sorry to meet
under these circumstances.

Mr. Beaumont.

I asked to see you for two reasons.

One, to thank you
for helping on that call.

And two,

to tell you that we won't
be needing your services.

Hear him out.

Why don't I

hear you out first?

Do you remember the mass bombing
in Mogadishu in 1996?

Killed 72 people, yeah.

What you don't know is that
there was a kidnapping

two months before.

I advised my superiors

not to pay ransom, but they did.

The terrorists got their money

but still executed three hostages.

And they used that money
to fund the attack in Mogadishu.

Do you know how often a ransom gets paid

and the hostages die anyway?

I know 81% of EU nationals taken
hostage by a terrorist are freed

if their country has no policy
against paying ransoms.

Which isn't the case in the Netherlands.

Maybe you should change your policy.

You think I'm heartless?

Arguing statistics at a time like this?

No, no.

I would give my own life for my daughter.

I don't doubt it.

This morning I had to
ask my chief of staff

to make sure
that I don't break down and pay.

'Cause that's all I want to do.

But I'm not abandoning Abby.

I'm protecting lives in the future.

- With a manhunt?
- Yes.

With less than 24 hours
until they kill her?

Every second she's out there,
her life is at risk.

Your plan forces you
to wait for more information.

I can act now.

You have strong principles,

and I respect that,
but this is a unique case.

You've kept the story quiet.

You can pay the ransom

without encouraging any more kidnappings.

If we're dealing with a terrorist group,

two million is small change.

How would it work?

If I paid? If.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

_

It's been leaked.

Excuse me.

_

Was this you?

The last thing I want
is the public aware.

Now our hands are tied.

Your boss told me that she asked
you to keep her from paying.

I think we both know
that leaking that video

would make it a lot harder
for her to pay.

You're right about one thing.

There's no way Lana's gonna pay now.

This is crazy.

“Watch what will happen
if we elect a woman.

Bitch will cave”"

“If that woman doesn't pay,

she's a heartless robot”"

I guess you've seen the video.

I analyzed the wave form
from the kidnapper's call.

There's no latency, no hesitation.

He's cool, he's calm, I don't
think he'd hesitate to kill.

That's a problem.

Lana's approach is a manhunt.

- Guns blazing?
- Mm-hmm.

Well, that won't provoke any violence.

So I take it we're
working for Daniel alone?

Yeah, Lana won't even see me now.

She's refusing to consider the ransom.

What's our next move?

We need to find out who broke the story.

Now, there's a woman, Cynthia Walker,

Lana's chief of staff,
she may have leaked it.

I need to know if I can trust her.

Okay, I'm on it.

I need to make contact
with the kidnappers.

Excuse me, do you speak English?

WOMAN: Yes.

All right, can you broadcast live?

- Yes, we can.
- Great.

My name is Eric Beaumont,
I'm a private negotiator

working for Abby's father Daniel de Haan.

Now, I have a message for the kidnappers.

I can get you your money,
but first we need to speak.

Call the number on my website,
CrisisResolutionWeb.com.

I'll be waiting.

(KNOCKING)

TESS: Abby.

Can you hear me?

I'm here.

Me, too.

You hanging in?

Just scared.

(WHISPERS):
I keep thinking we could escape.

These locks are like the ones
in my old house.

I can work on it, but you're not
well enough to run.

Well, I can try.

Or, if you got away,

and I didn't...

I would come back for you.

Could you give my mom a message?

Tell her that I don't blame her,

and that I was going to make her proud.

(CRYING): And that I love her
and my dad, too.

Okay.

Better give me a minute.

Mm-hmm.

You think you're pretty smart.

I never wanted the press involved.

This is me making lemonade.

You realize it will look like Lana

was on board with that offer?

I chose my words to avoid that, but yes,

some people will assume.

You have no idea of the resources

we have working on this.

We cannot have these surprises.

For Abby's sake,

I need you to keep me in the loop.

Hey, I will if you will.

That is not my call.
Some of it's classified.

See, that's the nice thing about
being a private negotiator.

I don't have to deal with red tape.

I can focus on the innocent
15-year-old kid.

I have known that 15-year-old kid

since she was four feet tall.

You want to cause problems?

Apparently, I can't stop you.

But you do not get to question
my dedication to that kid.

I do need to know what you're planning.

I will share what I can.

Then, so will I.

- All right, then.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, the V.E.B. is gonna route calls

to our phone and take messages.

I wish we had Max here
to lighten the load.

We are gonna get a lot of scammers.

Yeah. Anyway, we have been
researching the other victim.

Tess Mason... she's Canadian

but works as an ER nurse in Amsterdam,

so at least we know
she can handle the pressure.

What about the peanut allergy?

Daniel told us Abby's cell
phone was found at the scene.

No fingerprints, so the guy
was probably wearing gloves,

but they did confirm that
there was peanut oil

- found on the phone.
- And Daniel also made

a list of all family and friends

who are aware of Abby's
severe peanut allergy.

We've reached out to her doctors.

Where are we on who leaked
the kidnapping video?

Four major news outlets posted the video

at almost the same time.

But there was also an obscure news site.

Now I'm thinking,
why choose all the top dogs

and throw in one site no one's heard of?

Yeah. Good thought. Worth looking into.

I'm waiting to hear back.

We also checked out Cynthia.

Mm, she's impressive.

A litigator that got into politics.

International trade and cooperation.

ZARA: A whole other kind of negotiator.

She's been active on everything

from Brexit, the EU, UN, NATO...

And pretty much every other
acronym you can think of.

Can we speak?

Yeah, of course. Yeah.

Uh...

I can probably get close
to half a million.

Is that enough?

I'll do my best to make it work.

I appreciate it's difficult
to make this choice

in opposition to your wife.

If you're not sure about this,
I can give you time.

But when the kidnappers call,
we need to move fast.

Tell me what happens next.

_

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

You warned Beaumont about interfering.

Yes.

He said he would keep us
in the loop on his plans.

How are you doing?

Just thinking about Daniel.

When he gets stressed, he forgets to eat.

The man can multiply four
digit numbers in his head,

but half the time he
leaves without his keys.

You will be around to remind him.

And once Abby's home, it won't matter

how it happened.

Do you trust Beaumont to keep his word?

Uh... I can't be certain.

We need to do better than that.

I'll take care of it.

Hello?

(MAN SPEAKING DUTCH ON PHONE)

This poor girl's been kidnapped,

and we're getting... prank calls.

How are you?

- How am I?
- Yeah.

Seriously, how are you?

I've been so busy with the baby

we haven't has the chance
to talk since Max left..

Well don't need to hurt a heart?

I've been talking to her.

- Makes one of us.
- I know.

And I called Max on it.

You deserve more

than a sudden breakup and
a dash to the airport.

For what it's worth,

she thought a clean break would be easier

for both of you.

How's she doing?

With, you know, the shooting
and everything?

She's working her way through it.

- KIDNAPPER: Come here!
- TESS: No!

- KIDNAPPER: Yeah!
- TESS: Ow!

KIDNAPPER: Try to escape?

TESS: No, I... please, I promise.

- Ow!
- KIDNAPPER: This is what happens.

TESS: I won't try it again.

- (BLOWS LANDING)
- (GRUNTING)

(SCREAMS)

I promise I won't try it again,
I promise.

- I promise! No, no!
- Come here.

(KIDNAPPER GRUNTING, TESS SCREAMING)

Come here.

(TESS CRYING)

(PHONE RINGING)

Crisis Resolution.

KIDNAPPER: We have Abby.

Prove it.

Eric.

Kidnapper.

This is Eric Beaumont.

I want to thank you for sending
another picture of Abby.

KIDNAPPER: You said
you can get what we want.

It's not possible for me to
get you two million euros,

but I can offer you 400,000.

Every second you delay
increases the chance

that they will find you.

KIDNAPPER: Bring the money
to the Ruisdael Treinstation.

You have three hours.

Thank you.

Two million to 400,000 just like that?

I'd file it under cause for concern.

Mm-hmm.

(PHONE CHIMES)

What's up?

Have you cleared Cynthia
of the news leak?

No, I'm still working on it.

Are you going to tell her about this?

Yeah.

All right, sit tight.

The comms are up.

I've got the vehicle.

OLIVER: Everything okay?

ERIC: Something's not right.

(OVERLAPPING SHOUTING)

(ERIC GROANS)

ZARA: Eric!

- OFFICER: Are you Beaumont?
- Eric!

Sir, are you Beaumont?

Respond, sir. Are you Beaumont?

I-I can't hear you!

It's Beaumont.

Do you have any idea what you just did?

My job.

You just blew our chance to save Abby.

OFFICER 2: We got one.

(OFFICER SPEAKING DUTCH)

ERIC: Okay. Move.

It's okay, you're safe.

- We're gonna get you to a hospital.
- Where's Abby?

They brought me to see if it was a trap.

The ransom's now ten million euros.

They said you have three hours
before they kill Abby.

And until then...

Until then what?

They're going to break
her fingers one by one.

We're all set.

CYNTHIA: We saw an opportunity

- to use our considerable resources.
- What does that mean?

You saw an opportunity
to do things your way

and you obliterated
the kidnappers' trust.

- Trust?
- Yes.

You want to talk about trust?

You told me that you would
share information,

then you went behind my back.

Okay, sure, you made the same promise

and then you tapped our phones.

(LAUGHING): Well, clearly
we had good reason.

- (PHONE RINGS)
- Go ahead, take it. Why not?

Cynthia Walker.

Oh, who cares about the poll numbers now?

ERIC: Look, I know you're worried

about what they might do to Abby.

So am I.

By all accounts,
you're a great negotiator.

Your approach must serve you well

when negotiating within
an established framework,

in a position of power,
exchanging favors.

It's not as simple as that.

Still, I take a more... nuanced approach.

I work with a profiler.

We focus on emotions,
impressions, states of mind.

So, why the pitch? What do you want?

We need to speak to the nurse.

She might know more than she realizes.

Mm. Well, we don't know
what she's been through

with the kidnappers.

I think there's an argument
for letting her face a woman

instead of two men.

So you're looking for information

about the Glas story?

ZARA: No offense, but you're not
exactly The New York Times.

Who leaked the story and why to you?

It was an anonymous e-mail.

As for why me, 20 years ago,

I got a tip about a family
sailing around the world

that was kidnapped by Somalian pirates.

A Dutch family?

My stories were getting
massive attention.

Then I learned that the
Dutch ambassador to Somalia

refused to pay ransom.

Lana Glas.

What happened to the family?

The story ruined my career.

I've got too many bills to pay.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Uh... here.

- Thank you.
- Welcome.

The family was murdered.

And suddenly my editors
decided not to publish anything

unless my source went on the record.

Who pressured them?

Draw your own conclusions.

All I know is, I pushed back
and my editors blacklisted me.

Till this day on, people ask me
what happened to that story.

A cover-up?

ZARA: It smells that way.

OLIVER: It may not have
even occurred to Lana

that it could be connected.

And 20 years in politics
makes for a lot of enemies.

Oh, this was never about money,

but now it looks more personal
than political.

We should track down

the relatives of the family who died.

I'm on it.

Actually, I need you for something else.

(SIGHS)

Did you talk to Tess?

Yeah. Her story's pretty brutal.

We'd still like to talk to her.

We've got information to trade
if it'll help you get us access.

What information?

OLIVER: We believe the kidnapping

has a personal connection to Lana.

This is Oliver Yates, our profiler.

I noticed walking over here,
your body language suggests

you're trying to make a tough decision.

You're struggling,

but you're open to every word I say.

You want help.

Hmm. He's good.

But you had me at “information to trade.”

I'll make a call.

Can you give me one more minute?

Look, that thing Oliver
said that you looked

like you were trying to make a decision,

I'm wondering if that might
be about what to do next.

I don't know, maybe it's getting harder

to blindly follow that promise
you made to your boss.

- I don't do things blindly.
- Bad choice of words.

What I'm trying to say is, if you think

that Lana should pay the ransom,

don't let that promise get in your way.

Lana trusts you.

Maybe you owe it to her
to trust yourself.

ERIC: Tess, if it's okay with you,

I'd like to ask you some questions.

Can you tell us anything
about who was in charge?

He was a big guy.

Six-foot-five, I think.

Maybe 200 pounds. (SNIFFS)

A shaved head and a,

a scar on his neck.

OLIVER: What was his motivation?

Personal? Political? Financial?

Just...

hatred.

Make her mom pay.

Abby's such a sweet kid.

They started hurting her.

I can still hear her screaming.

_

_

_

_

(GRUNTS)

Did you hear them refer
to each other by name?

No.

They never use each other's names.

Look, all I know

is they were sick, sexist, racist...

That's the basis of their hatred?

They said stuff I don't want to repeat.

Yeah, I understand the impulse,

but we need to know

what they said.

I'll paraphrase.

They called her...

bitch.

Psycho ambassador.

They said “ambassador”?

Is that a bad thing?

No. No, it's-it's telling.

Lana Glas hasn't been
an ambassador in 20 years.

(SIGHS)

I promised not to let you make
this choice out of emotion.

(SIGHS)

If you pay to get Abby back,

you will have to question the
choices you've made in the past.

You'll have to think about
all those people who died

when you didn't pay.

(SNIFFLES)

How can I live with that?

Letting people...

even children... die...

and then, deciding to...

To save the only life
that's in danger right now.

I don't know.

I really don't know
how you'll live with it,

but I do know that...

that the weight of that guilt
is not worth Abby's life.

Lana.

Abby's blood on your hands...

you won't come back from that.

Yeah.

(SNIFFLES)

(EXHALES)

Yeah, okay.

Call the bank.

OLIVER: Something's off about the nurse.

- What's your read?
- Well, her nerves were off the charts.

I'd expect more relief.

Could be survivor's guilt, right?

Every time we mentioned Lana's name,

there was a spike in her stress level.

There could be resentment

because she refused to pay the ransom.

Seems good.

- How's the nurse?
- Resting.

You find out anything?

The Dutch family
that was killed 20 years ago

only had a few relatives,
and those have died.

So it's probably not revenge.

That doesn't make sense.
I could maybe write it off

if it was just a leak to the journalist,

but Tess said the kidnappers

- referred to Lana as an ambassador.
- Which was her role

when she refused to pay
and got that family killed.

We're missing something.

The connection to the
past screams revenge.

You said they died at sea.

ZARA: Yes.

Were their bodies ever recovered?

I don't know.

You're thinking...

Well, if it screams revenge,

could there have been a survivor?

The nurse told me you wanted to see me,

and I wanted to thank you.

I don't want your gratitude.

There were parents
and, what, children... how many?

Mother, father, twin girls.

- How old?
- Four.

Four years old, 20 years ago.

A nurse might find a way to
access private medical records.

Find out about a peanut allergy.

You should know
I've decided to pay the ransom

and, you know, bring her back home.

They told me to give you a message.

They'll kill her if I don't
take you to her alone.

They said one word to your
security, and she's dead.

Do you even know where to go?

I know everything.

They have instructions to kill
her if they don't hear from me.

You?

Lose your security.

Don't move! Hey, whoa!

_

_

_

_

Wait, wait, what-what'd he say?

They're gone.

Was this all an assassination plot?

No, she would've done that here.

Tess wants Lana to watch Abby die.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Cynthia.

We're not doing this dance again.

- We have protocols.
- Yeah, tactical protocols,

which means bullets could fly
around Lana and possibly Abby.

We were starting to work well together.

Let's compromise.

Your way and mine.

- Meaning?
- I'm sure you have some way

of tracking Lana: GPS, I'm guessing,

implanted or otherwise.

- I can't...
- Confirm or deny, I know.

But when you track her down,

let me have five minutes to do what I do.

If I can't get to a peaceful solution,

you can deploy
your considerable resources.

I'll talk to our people.

But I'll be there with you.

- Abby.
- Mama!

_

What are you doing?

20 years ago your mom
let my family be murdered

because she wouldn't pay a ransom.

But Abby had nothing to do with this.

Do you know what my earliest memory is?

My father's brain splattering
across a porthole.

You have no idea how sorry I am.

Keep me, let her go.

You're missing the point.

- You're a spectator here.
- Wait.

Wait, wait.

She deserves to know why.

_

(GRUNTS)

TESS: Do you want to
know what it feels like

to see your family murdered?

Watch.

Tess.

Nobody should have to know
what that feels like.

May I ask you a question, Tess?

You think it's gonna feel good
to pull that trigger?

You think I can't do it?

ERIC: That's not what I asked.

What if I told you that what
happened to your family

was an impossible choice and
that Lana was devastated?

I'd say too little, too late.

- Wait, wait, please, please.
- Shut up.

- You're a hypocrite.
- CYNTHIA: Yes, she paid,

but that was after 36 hours
of you twisting the knife.

I know something about
difficult childhoods.

When I was nine, my mom was depressed

and they put me in foster care.

Then my mom killed herself.

I lost everything.

I am so sorry.

ERIC: Tess,

you will spend the rest of your life

trying to deal with it.

CYNTHIA: You can decide.

You get to choose not to hurt anyone.

That's in your hands.

If you go public with your past,

it can make world leaders think twice

about their ransom policies,
but nobody is going to listen

to a vengeful woman
who killed an innocent teenager.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

_

You did the right thing.

(SPEAKING GERMAN)

Hey, let's get you out of this place.

Come.

Come, baby, come.

Up.

(SNIFFLES)

Thank you.

(EXHALES)

(SNIFFLES)

What?

Oh, I was just thinking.

Wondering...

if that story you told was true.

True enough.

(CLAMORING)

(QUIETLY EXCLAIMS)

Okay.

I got to let you go.

LET ME GUESS:

you negotiated your way past security.

I had Lana make a call.

I owe you an apology

for accusing you of leaking that video.

I realized later
that Tess released it herself.

You just come from seeing Lana?

I am, yeah.

She and her family are doing
as well as can be expected.

Good. Did she say anything about me?

What do you mean?

(EXHALES)

I'm leaving.

It's time to move on.

You know, I-I hate to leave Lana,

but you know, the polls look good.

She's gonna be fine,

and she understands.

Talking to Tess made me realize that

I just... I need to do more
than argue policy.

Hmm.

What?

What's with the look?

Oh, it's just funny

how the stars align, sometimes.

What do you mean?

I came here to offer you
more than an apology.

You offering me a job?

I might be.

I don't come cheap.

Let's negotiate.

Starting with your office space.

(LAUGHS)

Get used to something smaller, okay?

It's gonna be hard.
