All language subtitles for Satisfaction s01e02 Through Admission.eng

Previously on Satisfaction...

I know why you're in such a funk.

Mid-life crisis.

No, this feels bigger. More universal.

I don't know what to say.

None of what I do really matters.

We don't contribute anything to
the world in any meaningful way.

I hate this job.

Then you're gonna get on
your knees and thank me

for not firing you right now.

I need people with real life experience.

And frankly, it sounds like
you've had a pretty normal life.

What's your name?

Grace. I'm married.

I'm Simon.

- Your wife pays me.
- What? For sex?

I'm going to expel her.

What? For the song?

- Adriana.
- Simon.

Charles Lipton.

Maybe you'd like to take
a look at my portfolio.

Come work for me.

I'm not interested.

- I don't want my job back.
- Good.

'Cause I'm offering you something better.

Partnership.

I know you have my phone.

What are you trying to do to me here?

Same thing you did to my wife, I think.

Is it on? Good?

I think it was the happiest day of my life.

Take us into our new house!

Sure, there was my wedding.

And the birth of our daughter...

Oh, my... look at this!

But there's just something

about walking into your first home,

all those dreams you see taking shape.

I'm thinking pool.

[Both laugh]

Funny thing is I fought Grace like hell.

Before we finally made the offer.

It was so out of our price range.

Mmm. Off to...

But she had this vision.

She said that the money would come.

The master bedroom!

We were gonna grow old
together in that house,

you know, raise a family, be happy.

- Break it in?
- Break it in!

And that's what I wanted. Really good.

It was the American dream,

if that even exists anymore.

But that day, I totally believed in it.

We both did.

We believed in each other.

I think it was the best
sex we have ever had.

Am I boring you?

Now, what does this have to do

with the part about the hooker?

Escort, that's more the industry term.

Anyway, no, well, my
point is that after that,

everything changed.

You know, between the pressures
of work and raising a family,

you know, we just... we haven't
been ourselves in so long.

And that's an excuse for
all that's happened now?

No, no, no. I still hate
her for what she did.

But I guess I did I have that
big freak-out on the airplane.

Oh, and that having sex for
money, that part as well?

Right.

So you're kind of even now, huh?

- Well...
- And you're worried

about this guy Simon?

I made a few phone calls.

Simon's not gonna be a problem anymore.

Well, he wasn't your
problem in the first place.

Yeah, but I... I still love her, you know?

And yes, I could come
clean about everything,

but then we'd be in therapy.

We'd probably get a divorce,

divide the house, divide our friends.

Anika would be a mess...

Yeah, but you can't ignore what happened.

I know. But no, no, no.

I... I want to embrace it.

In some ways, things have been better.

I feel alive again.

I want to love my wife the same way we did

when I walked into that house.

And... and I've learned so much

through this whole experience.

I don't want it to end.

Is that weird?

A little, yes.

You really want me to help you?

That's why I'm here.

Okay, then, uh,

let's try something. Sit.

Yes. Now, close your eyes.

Now, try to relax and
focus on your breathing.

[Inhales deeply]

Ah, this is meditation. Right.

No, I've, uh...

Ahh.

Clear the mind

to get in touch with your deeper self.

No, you know, I've actually been...

I've been reading up
on the benefits of this.

Actually, you know, I should be
actually doing this once a day...

Okay, now, open.

Meditation offers you great benefits,

but honestly, you have bigger fish to fry.

Did you just get that from my jacket?

Yes, and I texted your wife

and told her you want
to meet her real soon.

No, no, no, no, no. You
texted her from Simon's phone.

Now she thinks that he wants meet with her.

I... I can't meet up with my
wife and pretend to be Simon.

If you want to fully embrace
this new person you're becoming,

then you must follow the
path that lay before you.

It's the only way you're
gonna get all the answers

you're looking for.

I have high hopes for you, Neil.

High hopes.

You sure you don't want to stay for dinner?

Oh, honey, I would love to.

Unfortunately, I have a board
meeting in about an hour.

Mm, well,

if you change your mind once you get there,

my schedule is free.

All evening.

[Sighs]

Oh, my God.

You are so bad for me.

You didn't tell me you lost your phone.

It was just a crazy week.

And I'm gonna get it back.

There's not gonna be any problems.

I just need you to write
me a check, that's all.

And if you want to go ahead
and book another appointment,

then we can just...

What... what's wrong?

Isn't that yours?

[Gasps]

Hey! No! No!

- Easy, chief.
- What are you doing?

- This is my car.
- That's your car?

- Yes.
- You're Simon?

- Yeah.
- Repossession.

No. What are you talking about?

I just made a payment on this.

This is bullshit.

Take it up with the bank, okay?

Trust me.

[Door closes]

Oh, wow.

I really... I can't thank you enough

for this opportunity.

[Laughs] It was such a
horrible interview that day.

I didn't think he liked me at all.

Well, Leon's a friend of mine,

but he can come off that way.

He said you had a great portfolio, though,

and you just needed somebody
to give you a chance.

Wow.

I see so much potential here.

You know, it's funny.

A few years ago, we
were just a small startup

in my college dorm,

and now, we have a building.

Well, you know, you work hard

and follow your dreams,

and good things happen.

How soon can you get us a presentation?

- Next week.
- [Phone ringing]

Hey, the sooner the better, okay?

- Thank you.
- We're really counting on you.

Okay.

[Sighs]

[Camera beeping]

Oh, shit.

_

-
are you gonna be mine?

_

[Car horns honking]

[Phone ringing]

- This is Neil.
- Hey, babe.

Hi.

So I had a meeting with
that startup company today,

and guess what.

I got the job.

- The design thing?
- For the lobby.

I mean, technically, I have
to put together a presentation,

they have to approve it,

but they're really eager
for me to get started.

Isn't it great?

Oh, that's amazing.

Do you know where the charger
for the video camera is?

- Neil?
- I'm listening.

Do you know where the charger
for the video camera is?

You know what? I have a
really important meeting

that I have to prepare for, so, um,

can we talk about this later?

Sure.

I should be home for dinner.

Okay, see you then.

Yeah, bye.

Neil here has been a star at the firm

for a long time.

Congratulations are in order.

A new partnership.

Speaking of which, did
your lawyers have a chance

to go over the client agreement...

I want to hear what Neil
has to say about my portfolio

before we talk about
signing any agreements.

So what do you think? Room to grow?

We get more aggressive? More adventurous?

[Charles' voice echoing]

[Moaning]

Neil?

Neil?

Yes, absolutely.

Okay. I thought you were excited

- for me to be here.
- Oh, he is.

- We are. We are very...
- No, you didn't let me finish.

I mean, it's one thing
to hear it from Victor,

but your wife assured me

you couldn't wait to
start making me some money.

I called her right after you and I spoke.

Because I had to be sure

that the cryptic guy
that I met at the party

was serious about helping me.

She said you were chomping at the bit.

You spoke to Grace?

Who's Grace?

That's... that's Neil's wife.

She said her name was Adriana.

[Doorbell chimes]

Neil Truman,

you found your way back to me.

What a surprise.

Come in.

Would you like anything to drink?

No. Thank you.

Sweetie, would you grab us
water and some ice please?

Sit.

I just came from a meeting with Charles.

Ooh, sorry, it was probably
a bit of a shock, huh?

You almost cost me my job.

Imagine my surprise when he called me.

It didn't even make sense.

The longer he spoke...

What did he say?

Something about your uncanny
ability to show profits

in a down economy.

You know what I mean.

Like on a more personal level?

Mostly the boring stuff.

But I did go online and
come across this video

of you on a plane.

Riveting.

I was having a bad day.

Yeah.

Look, I appreciate you

covering for me like that, but...

Professional courtesy,
you don't have to thank me.

Discretion is part of the arrangement.

So we can just forget
everything that's happened

and just let it go.

Well, I think you at least
owe me an explanation.

I did just lie about
being your wife in order

to save you a career-changing opportunity.

Yeah, well, we'll see about that.

I want to know more of your story, Neil.

It's complicated.

You know, I got quite a
few calls after that party,

not just from Charles.

There are at least half a dozen dates I...

I told you, I'm not interested.

- You didn't let me finish...
- No, I'm not an escort.

I'm just a regular guy who went

a little crazy for a couple of days.

And got paid for it.

See, I think you're a regular guy

who went crazy for a few decades,

then finally started
getting your wits about you.

Marriage? Monogamy?

Drive anyone insane. It's not who we are.

[Ice clinking]

This heat wave is unbearable.

Look, I'm going to go.

Do I still need to worry?

How are things at home since our date?

With your wife?

Bring a little excitement back?

I won't say a word to
another soul about you

if you just tell me how things
have been since our date.

They've been great.

You're welcome.

[Sighs]

[Alarm beeping]

Shit.

- Grace?
- In here.

Whoa.

I forgot to set the timer.

Oh.

I'm so glad you're home.

- Mm.
- I really need your help.

- Okay.
- I've been working on this

all afternoon, and I'm
just... I'm... I'm stuck.

Look. What do you think of
these for a color palette?

Or... or something...
Maybe something like this?

Right? I mean, you're always
good at giving me your opinion.

All right, I'm finished.

You guys wanna hear it?

"Dear Dean Miller,

"I'm sorry for the song
I wrote. It was wrong.

I really like oak roots academy"...

I can make that "love" if I need to...

"And it won't happen again,"
blah, blah, blah, blah.

"Sincerely"...

Okay, Anika, we said they're
not going to even consider

letting you back in until
you can apologize properly.

Then they shouldn't let me back in.

You're the ones who want me to do this.

I didn't agree to anything.

Can you at least try?

Why? The school covered up the affair.

How come when I tell the
truth, I get punished?

You're not being punished
for telling the truth...

- Yes, I am.
- She is.

Neil!

So the punishment goes away if I lie.

Right?

[Sighs] I hate you guys.

I think we should be really proud of her.

I mean, we actually raised a daughter

who's willing to speak her mind
and stand up for her beliefs.

Yeah, but what she did
hurt a lot of people, Neil.

Yeah, but what are we teaching her

if we're forcing her to apologize

for exposing the truth?

That people's private lives are private.

She should just learn
when not to say anything.

Like, when to lie.

If it's going to do more harm than good.

So if you knew something
that would really hurt me,

would you lie?

What do you mean?

You know, I mean, like,
would really upset me,

would you not tell me?

It depends.

On?

I guess, if... if I didn't
think you really needed to know.

I mean, right? What about you?

I'd probably do the same thing.

I guess I just... I think
Anika should just understand

that sometimes telling the
truth can have huge consequences.

I mean, this can keep
her out of college and...

And I get a 16-year-old's point of view

of wanting to rebel, but we're the parents,

so we should show her what
the right thing to do is.

Lead by example.

Yeah. Exactly.

I'm gonna stay up a bit and
try to get this work done.

You still need my help?

No, I think I can manage.

Don't wait up.

[Phone dings]

_

-
I am a better man

_

I'm looking at it right now.

The money is in my account.

Yes, Mr. Woodley, but the reason

the car payment didn't go through

is that your assets have
been frozen by the IRS.

- They've been what?
- We've been told by the IRS

to comply with an audit request.

They control all your assets now.

Why would the IRS all
of a sudden want to...

Hello? Sir?

Mr. Woodley...

- [Knocking]
- Who is it?

[Doorbell chimes]

What?

Jesus, Steph, it's noon.
What, are you still sleeping?

- How did you...
- The patio door.

You leave it open.

I need your help.

So what are you looking for?

Cool and mellow? Strong and energized?

Happy? Comatose?

Looks like you can open
your own little store.

I was thinking about doing that.

I have friends making a
good living selling this.

It's a legit business.

Okay, I just need pot.

Grace, it's a little different

than when you were in
college a million years ago.

You got to get more specific.

Okay, it's for creative issues.

- The new job?
- Yes.

- Mm.
- I'm having writer's block.

Look at you, getting all
artsy in your old age.

You know what, I smoked a lot in college.

It's actually how I passed all my midterms.

Only you would get high to
try and get better grades.

Okay.

[Humming] Let's see.

This.

Whoa. [Gasps]

This is really strong stuff.

There's a whole science behind it now,

so promise me you'll go slow.

Yes.

And I'm gonna need a pipe too.

Pipes are for hippies.

Yeah, I'll lend you my vape.

Vaporizer.

You're so gonna thank me.

Son of a bitch!

It's not over yet. Just take it easy.

Take it easy? Take it easy?

[Phone rings]

Oh, just...

There you go.

Feels good, doesn't it?

- Oh, this is funny to you?
- No...

It's all a big joke to you, huh?

- That's not how I...
- His lawyer said

he doesn't want to sign, Neil.

Huh? I can't even get
Charles to return my calls.

You spooked him in that meeting.

He doesn't trust us now.

What the hell happened to you in there?

I am putting together a detailed analysis.

Of his portfolio right now.

If he sees those numbers, he will sign.

Just don't worry about it.

Oh, yeah. Worrying is part
of the goddamn job, Neil.

Okay, let me tell you something.

No Charles, no partnership.

No partnership, you're
gonna owe me money, chief.

I owe you money?

I make you a partner means
you're vested in the company.

I fire you, you owe me a year's salary.

No, we didn't talk about that.

- It's in your contract.
- I never signed anything.

Okay, then I'll forge your signature,

and I'll fight you in court
to prove that it was you.

If that's what it takes.

This is how the game is
played at this level, Neil.

I take you off the bench and put you in,

I expect results.

You make this shit happen, okay, son?

Or you write me a check and go home.

You know, I gotta say,

that felt really good.

I totally get why you did that now.

[Chuckles]

Anika.

I'd like to talk

to whoever's in charge
of my school records.

I've decided to take the
G.E.D. to test out of school,

and I need my records to do that.

Can I have them... please?

We don't just hand those over to students.

You're gonna have to ask
your parents to come in.

They're my records.

I should be entitled to have them.

Actually, until you're 18,
they belong to the school.

You don't even want me here anymore.

Why can't I just have
them? This is such bullshit.

- Let me go get the Dean.
- [School rings]

What are you looking at, huh?

You think I'm some sort of freak?

We didn't think you were coming back.

- Smile.
- [Girls laughing]

[Girls chattering]

No, Stan, I need you to send
me Lipton's cost report now.

All right, well, send me what you do have.

Okay, I can give you 20 minutes, tops.

Got it? Good. Bye.

If he doesn't call back in ten minutes,

I want you to call him every 30 seconds

until he emails it to you.

I programmed the address
into your phone already.

Can I get you anything for the road?

A water? Coffee?

Um...

You know what you can do?

Start setting aside 15 minutes
out of my schedule every day.

- I'm gonna start meditating.
- [Elevator dings]

Okay.

And call Stan.

[Elevator dings]

[Phone ringing]

This is Neil.

You know, for a family-sized car,

this thing rides pretty nice.

Who is this?

All I wanted was my phone
back with all my contacts,

and you still had to go and call the IRS.

You're calling me from my car?

You wanna steal my life,
I'm gonna steal yours.

And I wouldn't report it stolen either,

or my next move is to go
just a little more public

about your moonlighting experience,

Mr. newly minted partner.

Look, I'm not a bad guy, okay?

I'm just trying to make a living here.

Get me my car back and call off the dogs.

We'll call it even.

[Sighs]

[Typing]

Oh, my God. Mom!

Oh, my God.

What... what are you doing home?

Um... kicked out of school.

- Are you getting stoned?
- No! I'm just...

Wait, how do you know what this is?

Have you ever tried marijuana before?

I'm not seven.

I've seen people smoke pot before.

And no, I don't do it.

I'm more of binge drinker when I party.

It's a joke, mom, jeez.

[Sighs, laughs]

- [Laughing] Oh, my God.
- Oh, my God.

You are so stoned.

Okay, this is different
from what I remember.

[Laughs]

- Did you do all this?
- Oh, no, no. Don't... don't look.

I'm... I'm not finished.

- Don't... don't look at it.
- Oh, my God, mom.

This is amazing.

How do you know how to do this?

I just learned it in college.

Did you just give it up?

No, I didn't give it up, I just...

Just replaced it with a new passion.

You.

Jeez, I'm sorry.

Oh, no. No, no.

I wouldn't trade it for anything.

And you know what else?

College doesn't really count.

I mean, the fact is,

it doesn't guarantee you anything anymore.

So if you don't get into a good one

because of what happened, screw it.

Look at me, I'm finding
a way to do what I love.

And I want you to know that I respect you

for wanting to tell the truth.

It's just that the fabric of society

is held together by
these little lies that...

Mom, you're rambling.

And I rewrote the letter.

Oh. Oh!

[Sighs]

"Dear Mr. Miller,

in retrospect, I deeply
regret my actions"...

[Chuckles] Wow, this is wonderful.

[Sighs] You really listened to us.

No, I still thought it was bogus,

but I actually want to
go back to school now.

I just found out I'm really popular.

[Laughs]

So I don't understand.
Someone towed your car?

In a manner of speaking.

Do you have, like, unpaid
parking tickets or something?

Let's just say that I made a
rash decision a few days ago,

and things got a little out of hand.

Well, I'm psyched. I get to
help you close Charles now.

I always thought we could make a good team.

This is your car?

It's badass, huh?

Okay, we need to make two stops.

First, the bank.

[Grunts]

Hey, do you like house music?

[House music]

Do you want me to come with you or...

You want...

[Door closes]

I'll hang back here!

Do you know what kind of trouble

I can get into for doing that?

You're just gonna auction
it off next week anyway.

I'm bidding early.

[Inhales deeply]

We good?

[Rock music]

[Engine revs]

Yo! Yo, Neil!

I'll call your cell for directions!

[Phone dings]

_

Thank you, Stan.

Hi! I'm here to see Charles.

He's with company right now.

Excuse me, sir, you can't go in there.

I'm sorry. He pushed right past me.

Actually, perfect timing.

I'm sorry to barge in like this.

Hi, honey. Don't be mad at me.

But after you told me how badly
the meeting went the other day,

I called Charles and
insisted he let me come by

to explain why you were
having such an off day.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

He just hates to appear emotional.

I keep him in touch with
that side of himself.

Right, honey?

So should I leave you
two to finish business?

I appreciate you both coming by today,

but it's a lot of money for
someone to be in charge of,

and I am just a little
skittish about who I can trust.

- Of course.
- So I'm still gonna need

- to think about it.
- She's not my wife.

My wife's name is Grace.

Adriana and I are, um,

what would you call it?

A little more than acquaintances, I think.

- She's not your wife?
- You assumed that at the party,

and I never corrected you.

Oh, and no one died.

If we are going to get into
a long term relationship,

you need to know that I will
always be honest with you,

even if it gets uncomfortable.

You serious?

He's serious.

What the hell is going on here?

You're cheating on your wife.

You're going along with it.

Is that really so scandalous?

I already know that you
support four different women

in this state,

none of whom are Mrs. Lipton.

Part of my service is
combing through your assets

to see where your money
can work better for you,

so I see everything.

And another thing I saw

was just how much your last
firm was stealing from you.

About a million or so every month.

I think you've been trusting the
wrong people for the wrong reasons.

You figured this out, huh?

They hid it well.

But I'm betting you had a gut feeling

that something was going on.

That's why you needed someone else

to take over your portfolio.

So, Charles, I have to ask you.

What's your gut feeling telling you

about who you should trust now?

[Radio chatter]

[Car door closes]

[Car alert beeps]

You got my message.

Yeah, I-I just wanted to bring this by.

It's the rest of what I owe you.

And... I don't want to see you anymore.

- Come inside.
- No, no, no.

- Grace...
- No, I think it's better

if this is over now, just...

The money's been paid, and we're done.

Grace, you know this has never

been about the money for me, Grace.

I don't... I don't even
think about this stuff

when I'm with you.

Please.

[Envelope crinkling]

[Soft music]

Don't go. Don't go.

What are you afraid of?

[Laughs]

[Door creaks]

I certainly didn't expect to see you here.

There's a lot of that going around today.

I told you your business would
improve if we worked together.

Are you coming in, so we can celebrate?

I don't think so.

You know, that was a bold move back there.

Very sexy watching a man
go after what he wants

on his own terms.

You know, that's a pretty big garage.

Is it full?

I was hoping I could keep this car here.

Maybe come around from time to time,

use it.

On a trial basis.

You want to park your car in my garage.

I like the sound of that.

And I lost my phone recently,

so I have to get a new number.

I'll call you when I do.

Thank you.

[Exhales deeply]

How long was that?

Six minutes.

That's it?

Yeah. When you find your thoughts drifting,

always return to the breath.

We tend to daydream about the future.

And dwell in the past.

Zen practice is about accepting

and appreciating your life in this moment.

Right now.

This moment.

Okay.

[Breathing deeply]

[Sinister music]

[Whispers] Neil.

[Laughter] [Moaning]

[Whispers] Neil.

[Moaning]

- Neil!
- Neil!

[Gasps]

I think we're gonna
need a lot more practice.

[Moaning]

[Door closes]

[Moaning continues]

- Grace?
- [Device beeps]

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you doing?

Oh, um, I finally

found the charger, and
when I went to rewind it,

I found this.

Do you remember when we closed escrow,

it was just you and I in the house.

Yeah.

[Device beeps]

[Moaning]

Wow.

Look at how young I look.

Oh, you haven't aged, Grace.

[Moaning continues]

I've put on a few pounds.

We look hot.

[Moaning continues]

Oh, my God!

- I don't even want to know.
- [Device beeps]

Can I borrow the car?

You'll have to take your mom's.

Mine's in the shop.

Cool.

- No texting!
- Yes!

Uhhuh!

[Chuckles]

[Laughing]

We should hide that.

Yeah.

Did you get my email?

About the letter she rewrote?

It's really good.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

I'm proud of her.

How's your... How's your project going?

Oh, finished. You want to have a look?

Yeah, sure.

[Pop music]

[Car door opens and closes]

Hey, you guys.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Totally cool. You made it.

Yeah. You know,

I pretty much get my
mom's car whenever I want.

[Scoffs] My dad refuses to buy me one.

It's so stupid.

So you wanna do a little shopping?

Totally.

I'm hoping I'm gonna need some
back-to-school clothes soon.

Oh! Awesome.

Huh.

What's wrong?

This is my dad's car.

It's got the school sticker in the window.

And the dent right here.

He said he dropped it off to get fixed.

[Car alert beeps]

- Hi.
- Hi.

I'm gonna need to get out here, so...

What's your name?

Simon. Do I know you?

Nice car.

[Chuckles]

[Engine starts]

This dude is totally busted.

It's... it's amazing.

[Phone dings]

Hard to get going at first,

but my sister was a big help.

[Scoffs] Stephanie?

Yeah, you're never
gonna believe what I did.

And Anika totally busted me.
