Who are you?

It's a simple one, right?

No. No, not really.

Because if it was,
you wouldn't be here.

You people are going
to find out who you are.

So, you are going to write
a daily journal.

And guess what?
You'll start the first thing
tomorrow morning.

You're gonna get up,
sit down,

and you are going to tell
the journal your name,

a bit about yourself,
your life and your world.

Who...

am...

...I?

I shall see you all again
next week.

[Man]
Journal entry, day one.

My name is Jack Giamoro.

I live in Malibu, California,
with my wife Nina.

Nina is...

Nina is...

...a good swimmer.

She likes to swim.

We've been married four years.

And she's a very...

strong swimmer.

My father, Ben Giamoro,
lives with us now.

Dad was a movie producer
in the 60s,

mostly low-budget
teen car chase movies,

science fiction stuff.

It wasn't what
he wanted to do,

but he was strong
and bullheaded

and people loved him.

Six months,
two weeks ago today,

Dad had a stroke
that almost killed him.

Dad's...

Dad is getting better.

I am a talent agent.

I help talented people
navigate their dreams
through a treacherous world.

I specialize in handling
television writers,

people that would be
much better suited to this
assignment than I am.

Some mornings I get to work
and it's easy.

I'm good and calm, relaxed,

ready to face whatever
the day throws at me.

Some mornings
I get stuck in traffic.

I get stuck in traffic,
and I sit there
and think about my life,

about the world,

about what's out there
waiting to take me,

to test me,
to destroy me.

On these days, I get to work
just a tad less friendly.

End of journal entry.

Partner meeting
in ten minutes.

I got it.

Hey Jack, you need anything?
Coffee, bagel?

No, I'm fine,
thank you.

Hey, you see
the game yesterday?

It was a good shot.

Last minute.

Lucky, get out.

I think my wife
has been having an affair.

I don't know who it is,

but I think my wife may be
having an affair.

Partner meeting.

Yeah,
I'm coming.

Be right there.

All right.
We gonna start?

We're waiting
for you, Jack.

Are you gonna sit down?

I've got an 11:30 at NBC.
I don't wanna crease this shirt.

Start.

You're a tragic figure.
I swear to God.

Do you have that
David Lilly
lunch today?

Yeah, I do,
but it's not a lock,
so we'll see.

You'll sign him.
I have faith.

I IMDB'd him last night.

The guy's created
seven hit series
and he's still only 35.

He's way too hot for us
not to own him.

He's a bucket of money, Jack.
We need him. Make it happen.

I'm aware of that,
thank you very much, guys,

I appreciate it.
I'm just saying

he took the meeting with me
as a favor to me.

So, while I guarantee you
I will sign him,

it may not be today
that I sign him, okay?

Calm down.
So, Jack...

what's this
adult ed class
you took last night?

Where did
you hear about that?

What class are you
taking? Journal writing?
What is that for?

It's a self-exploration
technique.

It's meant to make me
a better team player here.

I'll probably be
recommending everybody
take the class.

Oh, come on.
You got us in karate,

Kabbalah meetings,
environmental coffees.

Any chance you're gonna
shit-can this thing

so I can sit home one night
and lay around on the couch?

I don't shit-can things.
I finish what I start.

Why don't you just
go to therapy like normal
fucked up people do?

[sighs]
Why don't we start
the meeting?

How about that?

Hey! Put the phone down.

Who'd you tell I was
taking that class?

Did you tell
Arlene's assistant?

The truth?
Yes, the truth.

I think I did.

Lucky, you--
Why would you do that?

That's my private business.

I don't like my personal
business being out
in the street, okay?

As a blanket rule,
do not tell anybody

anything about
my life ever, okay?

Who else did you tell?

The truth?Yes, Lucky, the truth!

David Lilly's
assistant.

Oh, my God!

We had drinks
last night.

I don't know how
you graduated from Harvard.

You have the common sense
of a five-year-old.

If I didn't have so much to do
today, I'd fire you.

Mom, I gotta go.

So, Jack,

what is up with you and this
journal-writing course?

Come on, man.
What is that?

That's--that's, uh...
funny that you ask.

That's, uh...

just something
I'm doing on the side

to try to understand
the writing process better.

Look, man, you know,
what it comes down to is...

I love writers.
That's my life.

I always wanted to be a writer,
but I'm not.

I'm not good enough
and...you are.

I-- Look, I gotta ask you
something.

And think about this
before you answer.

David,

are you happy?

Well, I'm not doing
anything as drastic

as writing
a morning diary.

But, um, yeah.
I stay happy.

You don't have to dress
up in women's clothes

to write in that thing,
do you?

[laughs]

That's funny.

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Uhh!

Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!

Hey.
Hey.

How was your day?

Brutal.

How was
the scleroderma dinner?

It was good.

Bob Saget was funny.

Where'd you go after that?
I called you a couple times.

You did?

Yeah.

That's weird.
My cell phone
was on all night.

Coverage in this city
is so in and out.

What's up with that?

Should I read this?
Should I?

No! I don't need
to read this yet.

I don't need to read
any of your journals.

You know why?

Because there's
nothing in them.

They're empty, boring,
surface fluff.

First week always is.
Nothing.

Short staccato sentences
masquerading as disclosure.

It's what you know about
yourself without my help.

Your postman knows
more about you than this.

I want more.

This week, I want secrets.

Things other people
don't know.

Things youdon't know...yet.

Because, you see,

the clues to who you are
are buried in those secrets.

It's like hidden gold under
a twenty-foot pile of horseshit.

Nobody wants to dig through it.
But guess what?

It's in there. The truth.

Waiting patiently under
all the horseshit

that is the build-up
of our silly little lives.

So...

go in and get it, people.

Dig for the truth.

And people, please.

Spelling. It's important.
Get it right.

So...

I'll see you next week.

Hey, Dad.

[slurred speech]
Hey.

You're up.

This was your mother's
favorite show.

[passionate moaning]

I waited too long to marry.

I should have done it
in my 20s.

I'm too set in my ways.

I've treated Nina
like a possession.

One of the things
I've struggled for,
like my company,

my clients, my abdomen.

I work harder on my abdomen
than I do on my marriage.

You know why?
Because this will be
the David Lilly Agency.

That's why. Because every
single person we have here

would be devoted
to advancing your career.

Come on, David. I talked
to you last week.

You said
you'd think about it.

You're unrepresented
right now.

Yeah, Jack,
I thought it through,

and I'm gonna pass
and say thank you.

All right.
I understand that.

That's perfectly
reasonable.

But, will you
at least do me the honor

of passing to me in person

on the floor of
the Lakers game tonight?

Hold on a second, okay?
Hey, Brynn.

Brynn.
What?

You have play rehearsal
tonight?

Why? Who is that?It's Jack Giamoro.

He wants to know if I want
to go to the Lakers tonight.

Come on.
The hell he does.

He knows you
left your agent.

He just
wants to sign you.

What's going on?

Tell him you have to
take care of the kids.

Listen, Jack, I'm sorry.

I cannot do it tonight.

Brynn is in this play,
and tonight she's
got rehearsal,

so I'm stuck with
the kids.

Kids.

Game over.I understand that.

It's more important
than any of this.
Good for you.

Listen, buddy, I would
benefit from spending
some time with you.

What's he saying?

So, just selfishly,
will you have lunch
with me this week?

Okay, Jack. Sounds great.

Thank you. Okay.
All right, I'll talk
to you soon.

Take care of yourself.
All right.

Piece of shit.

Well, he trumped you with
that stuff with the kids.

By the way, the Laker game?
Jack, come on.

You sound like
a fool saying that.

Every agency has got
Laker floor seats now, so...

Anyway, you've got
a bigger problem than
not signing David Lilly.

Phil Balow. The puppy here
was asleep at the wheel.

Whoa, the puppy was not
asleep behind no wheel.

What happened?

He put four calls in
to the guy.

He hasn't returned
one in three weeks.

Phil Balow's
not calling me back?

Jeez, I must have
been so crazy,

I didn't even notice.

Didn't we send him
something?

That was last month
when he moved downtown.

Phil moved downtown?

Yeah. Him and Sela
got a loft downtown.

I guess they think
the Westside is too
white or something.

Downtown? Uhh!

Yeah,
I don't get it either.

You know what?
I don't really
get any of this,

but Jack,
fantastic job
signing David Lilly.

It's amazing watching
the master work.

Thanks, Fineberg.
You're the best partner
a guy could ask for.

Sounds to me like you're
about to lose Phil, Jack.

God damn it.

Phil Balow was the creator
of the situation comedy,
The Dipsy Doodle Show.

I can't afford
a problem with Phil.
It's all a math equation.

I'm me because
at any given time,
I have three Phil Balows.

Hey.

Jack! Jesus!Sorry.

Did I catch you
at a bad time?

Uh, no. Well, yeah.
I mean, um...

No, you know, we're
just in the middle of,
you know, rehearsal.

Sure, sure.
What's up?
What's up?

You haven't returned
my calls in three weeks.
It's not like you, Phil.

I just want to make sure
everything's okay.

Yeah, no, yeah.
Oh, no, yeah, no.

I'm good. No, I'm fine.

You happy?
Uh, no, yeah.
Yes, yes, no.

Yeah. Yeah, no.Okay. All right.

It's all good, right?
I mean, that's
the thing, right?

Uh, but, uh, right.

But you know what?
I gotta do this,
'cause, you know...

Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.
Right, right. So,

All right.
Okay.

Okay, man.Great.

Good to see you.
Okay, okay.

Okay.
I'll talk to you soon.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.
Looks good.

So, um, we can't
say vulva, but we
can say fallopian.

I don't understand.
I think vulva's fine.

Now, is it the product?
Is it because of Volvo
that we can't say that?

You have one new message.
Sent today at 6:01 p.m.

Hey, Jack, it's Phil.
Look, I gotta talk to you.

It was tough today
when you came by.

Something's going on.
You know? And it's
just not like me.

We've got to sit down.
You know,

we been through a lot
together, you and I,

and, uh, let's talk
in the morning.

Okay, we should talk.

He's leaving the agency.
I knew it.

Oh, what a life.

Aah! Jack! Jack!

Heh heh! I--
I love these fish.

They--
they make me happy.

Sorry.

How about
some trousers?

Oh. Okay.

Yes.

[crying]

Jack.

Yes?

I've been sleeping
with Phil.

It just happened.

He was obsessed with me.

And we'd get together
and...

I lost control
and it happened.

But it's over, Jack.
I swear it's over.

I'm so sorry.

So that's what he's
gonna tell me tomorrow?

Because I told him that
I was gonna tell you.

I made such a huge mistake,
Jack. I'm so sorry.

I love you so much, Jack.
I love you so much.

[sobbing]

Nina came along at
a point in my life

where all I did was work.

Work and plan
and strive and deliver.

I became bigger than life.
I became rich and famous.

But I never smiled.

For five years, I never
cracked one genuine smile.

Steven Bochco
is on line two.
It's important.

Tell Bochco you'll
call him back, Jack.

I'm going to a photo shoot
and you're going with me.

I can't. I swamped.

Get unswamped.
These are supermodels.

Tell Bochco
I'll call him back.

That's what I
thought you'd say.

♪♪ [pop]

Nina brought the light back.

It was dark,
and then it was light.

And the only difference
was Nina.

Look. You like it?
Oh, yeah.

I can paint or sew
or whatever.

It's a room for me.

Do you like it?

Yeah, it's great.

You have built-ins
and everything.I know.

What did this cost?

That's not important.

That's not important?So not important.

It's important to me.No. It's not.

I think it's important.

I'll figure out some way
to make it up to you.

You will? We can
figure it out right now!

Nina's on line one.

Tell her I'm not here.

Guys, we need to talk
about this thing at CBS.

We need to prepare
for these meetings.
We aren't prepared.

You guys spend the entire
meeting talking about
your little girlfriends.

That's only because
you won't spend any time

talking about your little
girlfriends, Arlene.

If I got one-third of
the snatch you get, Arlene,

I'd be the happiest man
on the planet.

You'd be the
second happiest man.
I'd be the first,

'cause you'd be telling
me all about it. Okay?

We have
a Phil Balow problem.

Excuse me?

He's been sleeping
with my wife.

Okay, all right, I thought
you were being serious.

If that's the problem,
who hasn't been sleeping
with your wife?

So have I.

Me, too.

She confessed to me
yesterday, out of the blue.

Apparently, it's been
going on for some time.

Now, I'm telling you
all this as my partners,

as my best friends,
as my family, so I assume

I don't have to give
the confidentiality
speech right now.

Oh, my God, Jack.
If this is true,

I'm so sorry.
I don't know what to say.

Jack, this is true?

Yeah. Apparently, she
broke it off with him,

but it may have been
going on for some time.

Jesus Christ, Jack.
Is there anything we
can do to help out?

Well, you can support
my decision to drop
Phil as a client.

You're kidding, right?

You don't
want to drop Phil.

He's about to re-up
his deal. He's starting
a new show.

You just told me
the other day how
valuable Phil is.

If it does half of
what Dipsy Doodledoes,

we're looking at a package
that could be in the tens
of millions of dollars.

Jack, you need to
take a deep breath.

Okay? You need to get
straight with Nina, yes.

But don't do this,
please.

I can take him on
day-to-day. You don't even
have to talk to the guy.

He is fucking my wife!

What is it you guys don't
understand about this?

His name is
off the client list!

Jack, come on.
You're taking this
really personal.

Uh, that's
the closet, Jack.

Who designed this room?

The closet door looks
exactly like the exit door.

And we're supposed to
keep the closet door locked.

We keep making all these
proclamations, but nothing
ever gets done, so...

[door slams]

[sighs]

I know what
you're thinking.

I hate it when you
start a conversation
like that, Arlene.

Jack, you love this
woman, I know you do.

You want my advice?
Because I know
she loves you, too.

She has been sucking
Phil Balow's cock, Arlene.

Does she expect me
to ever kiss her again?

'Cause that's not
gonna happen.

You'll stop
on your way home.

You'll grab some Listerine.

She'll have a nice gargle

and then you'll figure
out a way to move on.

That's great relationship
advice from a woman

who doesn't have a living
plant in her apartment.

I have plants.
That joke is so tired.

Did they send you in here
to save the Balow account?

Is that what
this is all about?

Give me a little credit,
Jack.

Arlene, tell the truth,
and don't get all defensive

like you do when
you're caught in a lie.

Did they send you in here
to save the Balow account?

Yes, but--

Get out.Jack.

Get out.Fine.

I gave it a shot.

Thought you might want
to try to act like a
human being for once.

Not today, I don't.

Lucky, who do you know
with a truck that can
move some items fast?

Oh, man,
that's a good question.

I don't think I know
anybody with a truck.

My uncle's out of work.
He's got a truck.
Bunch of buddies.

All right.
Call your uncle,
come to my office.

You're spending
the afternoon with me.

Uncle Jimmy, hey.

This is Mr. Giamoro.How you doing?

Jack knows me. Jimmy Dooley.
We grew up together.

Valley High, right?
I was in your brother
Anthony's class.

Jimmy Dooley.
Right. How you doing?

Good, good. I mean,
not as good as you.

Big shot now.
Big cheese.
Yeah.

Read about you in papers.
You've got this--pssh!

You don't call
anybody back, but--

Excuse me?

You don't
call anybody back.

I called you like
ten times about my
girlfriend's screenplay.

You made me look like a dick
to my girlfriend, Jack.

I have a number of items
that I need you to move.

I'll give you the address
I need them to be taken to.
Okay? Come with me, please.

I'm sorry, Jack.

I know I messed up,
but I love you.

I have nothing
to say to you.

Don't do this, Jack.
Don't be like this.

Don't throw it all away.

Stay in the fight
with me.

Um, excuse me?
Sorry. Before I go,
I just wondered

if it would be cool
if I left a headshot
and resume?

Yeah. That's fine.
Just leave it right there.

Cool. It's the color kind.
It's the newest thing.

Great. Terrific.Bye.

I just wish I could
make you understand

how small and how sad
it all was,

so you'd know how
little it all meant.

Your stuff will
be in the garage
at your mother's.

You can do whatever
you want with it.

[alarm beeping]

Uhh!

[alarm stops]

I'm no good
at being in love.

I was in love once
when I was fourteen.

I was a fat kid.
A fat child. A fat teen.

No one in my adult life
knows that. Only Dad.

There was a girl
at school. Leah.

This is great, Lucky!

How did they get this?
The goddamn press! Sheesus.

[door slams]

What is Ling?
What is that?

Chinese? Korean? Taiwan?
What is Ling?

I don't know, but the name
sounds really familiar.

I'll find out
exactly who she is.
Do that.

Ling, my ass.

♪♪ [vocals]

[indistinct chatter]

[men singing in Spanish]

[door lock clicks]

It's debilitating

to know that after years
of pretending you do,

you actually don't have
the killer instinct.

I wanted to rip Phil's
throat out last night,
but I couldn't.

[knocks]

Hey, can you help me out?

My brother Anthony
had the killer instinct.

Anthony went after
everything he ever wanted.

Anthony was like my father.

He was driven
and had purpose.

When you want something
in life, you have to
fight for it.

Ah! Hoo!

Ah! Hoo!
Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!

Stay with it.
See it through.

You have to be willing
to go the distance in life.

I wasn't willing to fight
the fight for Leah.

And I couldn't go
the distance with Nina.

[writing with chalk
on blackboard]

What I think you are
starting to see,

if you're doing the work,

if you're staying
with the course,

is that being honest
every day,

knowing what you think,
knowing what you feel,

is getting
very revealing.

Doors are being opened.

Boxes that have not
been rummaged in
for quite some time

are being looked through.

Later, as we wind
the course down

and I read your journals,

I should know you
intimately,

perhaps better than
anyone else knows you,

except, of course,
yourself.

Excuse me.
Sir.

What do you mean,
read our journals?

I don't think that's
gonna work for me.

I'm a very
private person.

Okay. But you
may as well leave now,

because there is really
no point in your staying.

Well, it's not that.
I'm just not that
comfortable.

I'm not interested
in your comfort.

I'm not an anesthetist,
I'm a doctor.

I do not get cheap thrills
reading someone's journal.

I am here to
give you the tools

to help you to uncover...

...discover,

and discard

the crap that is
holding you back.

And you, sir,
definitely have crap
that is holding you back.

"If a way to the better
there be, it exacts
a full look at the worst."

Thomas Hardy.Who?

Who is Thomas Hardy?
Is that what you're asking?

Yes, I am.

Are you not a college man,
Mr. Giamoro?

Community college.
Two years.

But I believe education
can only take you so far.

Quite right.
Absolutely true.

But ego...

...will not get you
the rest of the way.

It will feed you, yes.
It will clothe you well.

But it will leave you
cold and alone and
unknowing, I promise.

But if you would prefer
to leave, please go.

I don't choose to leave.

Very well.
So, when I ask you

to turn in your journal
for me and me alone
to read, just do it.

And remember the spelling!
It's a thing with me.

[engine starts]

Hey, don't worry.
We're gonna get this guy.

We'll mess him up
real good.

Teach him a lesson.

He needs one.
Playing gatekeeper.

All these people
deciding who does
and doesn't get in.

Mm.

You've been wronged,
so I'm going to fix it.

[engine starts]

[cell phone rings]

Hello?Jack. Hey, man,
look, it's Phil.

We need to talk.

What do we need to
talk about, Phil?

Come on, man.
Don't be an asshole, okay?

I'm sorry.
I feel like shit.

I want to see you.

It's 8:02, Phil.
I'm running late.

I don't want to talk
to him! I won't ever
talk to him again!

You sit down here.
Okay?

Now I really do not want
to hear any more about this.

Of all the girls in the
world, you had to steal
one from your baby brother?

You should be ashamed!

Anthony!

[crying]

I just don't want to come
home and listen to the
same garbage every night.

I come home from work,
I got a headache.

I've been shit on all day,
and then I have to listen

to this crap
night after night!

I don't understand why!

[Mom] Anthony needs to do
the right thing!
Oh, come on!

I am taking him over
to her house to talk
this out with her parents!

Anthony,
open this door now!

Leave the kid alone!
You're driving me nuts!

Get down those stairs
and get out in that car
right now!

You stay out of this!

My mother never
forgave my father

for letting the failure
of his career destroy
his happiness at home.

[door slams]

She never forgave him
for putting a wall up

between himself
and his two sons.

You only care about Jack!

My father
never forgave me

for not being thin
and focused,

combative and determined
like Anthony.

Between you
and your father--

[horn blaring]

And for
the rest of her life,

he never forgave my mother
for killing Anthony.

Why the hell should I
have to forgive Nina?

You've got about
a hundred calls.
David Lilly?

No, but I did figure out
who Barbi Ling is.

She writes freelance
hatchet pieces for
the L.A. Voice.

Most of them are
major players in town.

She did the
Sherry Lansing piece.

Figures.
It gets worse.

She's a screenwriter
and was a stand-up comic.

You know, one of them
Comedy Store wannabes?

She submitted ten scripts
within the last five years.

We rejected them all.

She couldn't make it
in this town

and decided to tear down
the people who did, right?

It gets worse.

Would you stop saying that,
please?

You sound like a bit player
on a Dick Wolf show.

She sold a full profile
to the L.A. Voice.

The one last week was
just a teaser.

She's doing a whole thing
on you, Jack--

the evolution of the agency,
the stealing of clients.

Please tell me
that's not true.

I can't.
Jack.

We need you
in your office.

Right now?

Jack, it's important.

Phil called. He wants
to sit down with you

or he's threatened
to leave the agency.

You need to have lunch
with him.

I'm not sitting down
with Phil.

Nina called me, too.

She's destroyed.
You need to see her.

I'm worried about her.

Then you see her.

Hey, get this Ling
on the phone, will ya?

Jack, you need to do
something. He will
leave the agency.

Jack, here's how bad
I want you to have lunch
with Phil. Are you ready?

I will sign your cousin
Andrew's no-talent,
acne-scarred daughter.

Okay?

Call him.

Jack, Barbi Ling
on line 3.

[door shuts]

Barbi Ling, how are you?

I'm fine, Mr. Giamoro.
What can I do for you?

Well, I think that you
and I should sit down
and have a meal together.

Why? Do I sound hungry?

In fact, when you called,
I was having a meal.

Well, if you're like me,
eventually you'll
have another one.

Listen to me, Barbi.
I promise you, you need
me close on this, okay?

Profiles need information.

I can get you to who
you need to get to

so you can get
this thing done right.

Are we done?

Barbi, I'm being nice now.

This is the nice Jack
that you're talking to.

I know.
And I'm so very lucky.

Oh, look!
My food's here.

Fun meeting you,
nice Jack.

I'm not good
with the word "no."
I never have been.

I worked for
the world-famous
Cameron Merrick Agency.

Morty, Arlene and I
all started in
the mailroom together.

We were young and hungry

and had the power
and determination.

Once I found the business,
I knew I was gonna succeed.

I saw myself
succeeding so clearly

that it became
a moment in time

that I had but simply
to wait and prepare for.

Like a bus scheduled
into the station at
a preordained moment,

I moved forward with
confidence that my day
would surely arrive.

And when the time
came to make a play,
I made a play.

As our bosses before us
had done, we formed
a new group,

took most of our clients,
and left the agency.

But first we copied
all their secrets

so we'd have something
to blackmail them with if
they ever came after us.

It was ruthless and bold,
a mailroom coup,

a time-honored
show business tradition.

Change is coming around
again now.

I could feel it.

what your plan is,

you say...

"I don't know."

Do you think I'm lying?

I've had a very
difficult few weeks.

Which, of course,
you did not write about.

Mr. Giamoro,
tell me honestly.

It's not my way

Yes, yes, yes. But why

Why don't you write

Mr. Giamoro,
I have told you before

that you cannot
make these outbursts.

I will see that
you do a night in jail

if this happens again.

Your Honor, give me
a night. That's fine.

But just hear me
out, because this is
important to understand.

We put our souls into it.

We made it what it is!

So, what came first,
the class or the story?

The story.

Who's that girl?

I have no idea.

Who tipped you off?
Arlene's assistant?
Dooley's nephew?

Here's the question.

Why are you in
a class like that,
a guy like you?

Well, to be honest
with you, Barbi,

I think I took that class
for two reasons.

One, I wanted to
expand my horizons.

And two--and there's some
irony in this--

was to meet people
like you.

Hmm.

Here's a question.
Why'd you pick
this shit hole?

It's the worst restaurant
in Chinatown.

My family owns it.
That's my father
at the register.

And all the busboys
and waiters are
my brothers,

my cousins and my uncles.

Well, okay.
Let's get past that.

I want my journal back,
Barbi, and I want you
to call your editor

and tell him you're not
going ahead with the story.

Here's a little tip.

Tearing down other people
who worked hard to get
where they are

is not a way to
advance your career.

My journal, please.

No, no! That's--

No! You--no, no!

No!

Give me my journal!

Aah!

Jack! Jack! What
the hell's going on?

Who is that girl, Jack?

Whoa! Jeez!

Jeez, I'm sorry, sorry.

Why are these people
chasing us, you asshole?

things went sideways,
confusion ruled,

picked it up.

Barbi Ling
has my journal once again.

[laughter]

I headed home knowing
I needed to do something
to change my luck,

so I drove to David Lilly's
in Brentwood.

It was time to jumpstart
the beast, and I knew
just how to do it.

[honks horn]

[honks]

Hello there, neighbor!
Just me, Jack Giamoro,

your friendly
neighborhood IAAH.

What is this?

David, I'm gonna
make a speech. Okay?

At the end of this speech,
one of two things is
gonna take place.

Either I'm gonna represent
you or I'm going to jail.

So, hear me out.

David Lilly,
I want to be your agent.

I can make the deals
with the studios that
you need to have made.

I will have
the studio people
over here catering to you.

I will have them
doing your yard work.

I will have them
cleaning out
your litter box.

I want to make you
so much money

that it will
screw up your kids
and your grandkids.

I am bone-marrow hungry
to be your agent.

That's it.

What do you think?

Ask him if he'll
represent an actress.

I want this guy
repping me, too.

Okay, fine.
You're my agent.
You're my agent.

Just get off my lawn
before the cops come.

Yes!

You're not
gonna regret this.
Thank you. Thank you!

I'm very excited.
Very excited!

Jack, we need
an explanation.

You need to come
clean with us.

Listen, I can't let her
have that journal.

This is the woman who's
responsible for the
break-in at my house.

She can't have
that journal.

Why not? Why can't
you let her have
the journal, Jack?

What's in the journal?

She's doing a story
on me, on the agency,
our work, etcetera.

Oh, God.

And the journal
contains, you know,
it's private information.

But, other than that,
everything is fine.

And there's good news
regarding David Lilly.

What's in the journal,
Jack?

I'm taking care
of it, okay?

Jack, what's
in the journal?

[sighs]

Information that directly
contradicts our testimony
at the competition trial...

as well as
some personal stuff.

You know, my feelings
about the size of my dick
and stuff like that.

So, Barbi, as we
discussed on the phone,

we all wanted to
get together with you

to talk about the scripts
that you submitted.

Five years ago.

Please don't
take that personally.

We are looking at ways
of speeding up our
reading department.

As head of the future
lit department,
I gotta tell you,

I really think you have
an incredible body of work.

Really?Mm-hmm. Absolutely.

Awesome.

Wow, how nice.

Um, which one do you
like the best?

Well, to be honest
with you, probably Chinese
Girl on a Killing Spree

would be my favorite.Good one. Really edgy.

Planet Without Jews
was an interesting read.

Phenomenal.
Phenomenal.

Wow, thank you.

You're very talented.Barbi,

the point is,
we would love,

loveto have you
as a client.

A client?

Yes. Yes. Yes,
we would be honored.

Absolutely.Thank you.

[giggles]

Which one of my scripts
was your favorite, Jack?
You read them all, right?

Every one of them.
Read them all.

How nice.
Mm.

Um, how does an agency work?
You take ten percent?

I'm just curious.

Ten percent.
But, you know,

really, it's really
whatever you're
comfortable with.

I read them
on the shitter.

Excuse me?

Well, I was
on the shitter,

taking a shit when
I read your scripts,

so I just thought
it was appropriate.

[laughs] Jack!

He is so silly.
Stop it.

He's kidding.That's Jack humor.

Let's cut the shit,
Barbi. Okay?

We want the journal
and we want you
to kill the story.

What do you want?

You mean you don't want
to sign me as a client?

No, of course we do.
Jack, come on.

Oh, for God's sake.
She knows we don't want
to sign her as a client.

Barbi, have you ever
been to the Laker game?

Have you ever
sat on the floor
at the Laker game?

You have no interest
in my work, do you?

Well, it is tiresome.

[crying]

[laughing]

You're all so pathetic.

Especially you, Jack.

I have you people
by the short hairs
and you know it,

and you have no shot
in hell that I'm gonna
kill this story.

Get your asses back
to your side of L.A.!

Well, that went well.

Come on, Dad.

Dad, what are you
doing in there?

I looked these fish
right in the eye,

and they looked back
at me,

and they--they see
right through me!

They know who I am,
these fish.

Okay. Come on, Pop.
Let's get out. All right?

I treated your mother
like garbage.

Yeah.

I should have been
just...

...nice.

But then, I was
very hard to live
with back then.

Okay, Dad.
Come on, get out.

Okay. Come on,
let's go to bed.

I look back on the
good times I had with Nina

as Nina and I.

I know we had them.
We had many.

But I remember them now
as if we were someone else,

characters in a book
or a film or a game
of some kind.

Isn't this great?

Yeah, but just wait!
A couple years up the road,

I'm gonna start screwing
all your clients.

Then you'll know great!

I don't have a clear
memory of when Nina
and I were in love.

Babe, I told you, I don't
believe in therapists.

I've been there.
They're weasels.

They charge you
an arm and a leg.

You know, you spill
your guts to them.

You tell them
every little deep,
dark secret you have,

and then you
spend your whole life
praying to God

you never run into him
in public. No.

If you screw my client
out of this picture,
I will ruin you.

I will smear this town
with your severed
testicles. Okay?

You are nothing. Do not
cross me on this. Okay?

I'm hanging up now.

Ah! Because
your response

to my side of
the conversation
is irrelevant.

Who was that?

Just a friend.

I gotta go. I'm late.

You're fired.

Excuse me?

You want his job?

Yeah, sure.

All right, Dooley!
You're sitting at

Get up, get up, get up

All right, Jack.

Before you go in there,
there's someone

I set this up, so if
you want to be upset,
be upset with me,

but the two of you

Just trust me, Jack.
The two of you need to talk.

Fine. I'll talk to him.

Good.

Morty told me about

and about the journal.

I've seen you
writing in it.

If you really loved me,
no matter what I did,

no matter what
we were going through,

you would not have
done what you did.

Okay, you're right.

I'm human. I'm flawed.

I'm a flawed piece of

Do you want to
hear me beg?

'Cause I will.
I'll beg.

It's not in my nature,
but I'll do it.
I'll beg.

I'm asking
for forgiveness.

I'm asking you
to somehow...

look inside yourself
and...

find the place that
will allow you to focus

on all the incredible
good that's happened
between us.

If you really love me,

then why is that
so goddamn hard?

Get out.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

All right. Well,
put your game face on.

David Lilly and his wife
are on their way up.

I'm going up.

No. Let's be smarter
than this.

as I refer to her,

is going to perform
a little audition for you.

Oh, that's not necessary.
We're gonna to handle her.

We've already decided
on that. We're gonna
do a great job.

We have some career
goals mapped out that
we want to talk about.

Morty's gonna come in.

I don't want any favors,
okay, Jack?

I really want you
to handle me.

That's why I'm
gonna do a scene,
and then, you know,

you and Morty can decide.

If--if it'll make you--

if that's what
you want, it's fine.

Great. Um, it'll be fun.

Hello.

Morty, Brynn is gonna do
a scene, an audition scene.

A scene. Here?

Yeah.
That's right.

Okay. Hey,
sounds great. Good.

David and I,
with Jack's help,

are going to do
the Michael Douglas/
Sharon Stone

interrogation scene
from Basic Instinct.

Okay.
Great.

And no, I am not
wearing any underwear.

[Brynn and David laughing]

Seriously, you're so sweet.
Look at all this.

You're like
a little angel face.

And you're
the best secretary.

Hi, Arlene.
Nina.

This is Barbi Ling.
She's writing a story
on Jack and the agency.

We just wanted to use
the conference room

for a few minutes,
maybe 20 minutes?
Yeah.

Actually, would you like
Arlene to sit in?

I mean, no one knows
more about Jack

and the agency than Arlene.

Except for Jack.

Um, I don't think so.

Okay. Arlene,
do you mind leaving?

No, not at all.

So, Miss Tramell
has waived her right
to an attorney.

Did I miss something?

Um, I told them
you wouldn't want
an attorney present.

Why'd you waive your
right to an attorney,
Miss Tramell?

Why did you think
I wouldn't want one?

Uh, sorry. I told them
you wouldn't wanna hide.

I have nothing to hide.

Um, there's no smoking
in this building,
Miss Tramell.

What are you gonna do?
Charge me with smoking.

I need you.

Not right now,
you don't.

Would you tell us
the nature

of your relationship
with Mr. Boz?

Trust me on this.
Just trust me.

I had sex with him for
about a year and a half.

Arlene, this is
important. Leave.

I liked having sex
with him.
Jack.

He wasn't afraid
of experimenting.

I like men like that.

I like men
who give me pleasure.

And he gave me a lot
of pleasure, Jack.

So Nina, let's start
with the big question.

Okay
That sounds good.

What's the name
of the bigshot client
of your husband's

that you've
been sleeping with?

[efforting, grunting]

Aah!

[elevator bell dings]

[telephone ringing]

Hi. Phil Balow to see
Jack Giamoro.

Sure, Mr. Balow. Can you
please have a seat?

[efforting, grunting]

You describe a white silk
scarf in your book.

I've always had a fondness
for white silk scarves.

But you said you liked men
to use their hands.

No. I said I like
Johnny to use his hands.

I don't give
any rules, Jack.

[whispers]
I go with the flow.

I go with the flow.

Ever do drugs with
Mr. Boz, Miss Tramell?

Sorry. Yes?

Sure.Jack, it's me.

I'm trapped.
You're trapped?

I am.

I'm stuck.What kind of drugs?

Cocaine.I'm stuck, too, Nina,
okay? We're all stuck,

and let me just say being
stuck is not an excuse

for what happened
with you and Phil.

Have you ever had
sex on cocaine, Jack?

No, Jack, I'm trapped.It's nice.

I'm trapped in a closet.

Honey, I'm trapped
in a closet, too,

you know? Okay?
Whatever the hell
that means.

How did you feel
when I told you

Johnny Boz had died
that day at the beach?

Who the hell
is Johnny Boz?

I felt like somebody
had read my book

and was playing a game.Look,

I'm in the
conference room closet

down the hall, Jack,
and I have your journal,

and Barbi Ling
is outside the door.

But it didn't hurt--

...even though
you were screwing him.

[groans]

You still get pleasure.

Haven't you ever had sex
with anybody else while
you were married, Jack?

[laughs]

Okay, that's plenty.
I've seen enough.

My God, what a talent.
I'll be right there.

Morty?
Yeah, yeah.
She's amazing.

You know who
she reminds me of?

Me too. Good.
I'll be right back.

Phil!
Phil?

Yeah Jack, it's Phil.

The evil Phil, who you
refuse to give two seconds
of your time to.

We gotta talk.Okay. One second.

David,
I'll be right back.

You were terrific.
Okay.

I'll be right back,
Phil. Then we're
gonna talk. Okay?

Are you okay?
Yeah.

Get me out of here,
though.

No. No, not "okay."

All right?
I have something
to say to you, man.

Oh. Shit!

I got your journal
back, Jack.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

Look man, I'm so
in the wrong here.

I mean, I am
so in the wrong.

I'm not gonna read it,
Jack, if that's what
you're worried about.

I'm not worried.

All right. Well, good.

You know, I mean,
I'm glad you're
not worried.

But you hate me.
I mean, is that it?

I mean, you just
hate me and you
can't forgive me.

Why did you take
this class, though,
Jack? I'm just curious.

You've always been
so resistant to therapy
or introspection,

and then out of the blue
you take this course. Why?

Answer me.
Answer me.

I don't know. I just got
to this place in my life

where I felt like
I don't know who I am.

I felt like, I don't
know who I am...

and I don't know how
to be in a marriage.

And that scared me.

Going crazy on me, Jack?

No, Phil. I'm not going
crazy on you, Phil.

It's just that, uh...

I'm imperfect, you know?

I am. We all are.

I mean, we're all
so damn imperfect.

I know, baby.

I know, baby.

Imperfect, I'll cop to.

Give me a hug.

Not you, Phil.

Oh, no, I am.

After all that preparation,
he just leaves us?

You know, I spent hours.I know, I know.

I made this outfit.He's coming back.

Whatever.
All right, get off.

Come on. That's enough.

It's locked.

Yes. I see that.

Jack, the police are on
their way. You better
get out here now.

You won't believe
what's going on out here.

Hello.

You coming?

Jack, you gotta
get out here now.

All right, all right,
all right.

[indistinct shouting]

I'll be right back.

[Jimmy]
You big, soft piece
of shit! Yaah!

This make a good script
for you, huh?

I know the ending!

Barbi, go in there

and tell him this is over,

'cause the cops
are about to get here,

and when they do, I'm gonna
tell them everything--

burglary, assault,
extortion.

I mean, you'll go to
jail for ten years, with
an expensive lawyer.

So tell me, is this over?

[Jimmy shouting]

Correct answer is yes.

[Jimmy shouting]

Yes, it's over.

Okay. Go tell
this idiot, before
he burns the office down.

I could've been
sitting here!
No, Jimmy, no!

No!
No, let's go,
let's go!

We have to burn down
his office!
No! No!

One problem, dickhead.
It's not his office,
it's my office. Okay?

[indistinct shouting]

[fire alarm]

You stalking me?

I am.

I wanna come home, Jack.

I wanna come home so bad.

I just...

I just wanna come home.

I want us to get it right
and I wanna come home.

[crying]

Come here.

[sobbing]

I have made a decision.
I no longer choose to
be a talent agent.

I have left my company.

My former partners
all have voted.

Arlene will replace me
and run the company.

Needless to say, this did
not sit well with Morty.

For the first time
in fifteen years,

I will be just Jack,

Something I have
grown and built and
guided and nourished

with every beat of life
that I had

is no longer mine.

I am nothing
without the elixir
of constant movement.

I do not know
how to just be still.

[Primkin]
So I shall read these,

and within two weeks,
you'll be receiving a
grade and an evaluation.

Thank you. Thank you.

I have no problem
with you reading this,

you and you alone,

if that's what it takes
to finish the course.

Wonderful.

I do not need
an evaluation, however.

Give me any grade
you want. I'm done.

I gotta tell you
something.

You're a real shitbag,
Primkin.

All in all, though,
I think you taught
a pretty good class.

Thank you.

So, you're done.
Is that it?

That's it. I'm done.

Good. You've done well,
son. You done good.

Except you spelled
"Primkin" wrong.

God.

Nina and I
have a long way to go.

With the odds against us,
we are determined
to make it work.

There's things
I'll need to forget.

There's things she'll need
to make sure I remember.

How is it possible that I
still have so much to learn?
