00:13:46,333 --> 00:13:47,959
Might be. But then again,
I was the client.
359
00:13:48,041 --> 00:13:50,959
So you're kind of comparing
apples to my money.
360
00:13:51,041 --> 00:13:51,500
I did more
than just run your money.
361
00:13:51,583 --> 00:13:52,834

I killed it
at the Idea Dinner.
363
00:13:55,500 --> 00:13:57,333
I convinced the Street
that night, and every day since,
364
00:13:57,417 --> 00:13:59,417
that there was always
someone at the helm.
365

on them.

that I was key in making up

from Grigor's redemption,

No, you're not.

I don't actually need you
in the pitches.
375
00:14:20,166 --> 00:14:22,041
For one thing, you bombed
your first raise meeting,
376
00:14:22,125 --> 00:14:23,959
with Grigor's lieutenant,
bombed it on purpose.
377
00:14:24,041 --> 00:14:25,625
And for another:
the investors need to know
378
00:14:25,709 --> 00:14:27,667
that you're here
at Axe Cap,
379
00:14:27,750 --> 00:14:31,375
that someone's
"always at the helm."
380

Besides...
the raise is my thing.
381
00:14:34,333 --> 00:14:35,667
I'm thinking
that the final number
382
00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:38,375
will be something just shy of
half of what you're looking for.
383

No. No.
1060
00:42:47,667 --> 00:42:50,125
Thank you, Dad,
no, um, I just need the space.
1061
00:42:50,208 --> 00:42:52,709
Mm-hmm.
1062
00:42:56,709 --> 00:42:59,875
Taiga, I don't know you
very well.
1063
00:42:59,959 --> 00:43:00,834
I didn't try
to get to know you,
1064
00:43:00,917 --> 00:43:02,583
and that's on me.
Perhaps I thought Ira
1065
00:43:02,667 --> 00:43:04,959
would move on
to someone more--
1066
00:43:05,041 --> 00:43:07,792
Substantial?
1067
00:43:07,875 --> 00:43:10,417
Closer to
his age bracket.
1068
00:43:11,417 --> 00:43:14,000
So I'm at a bit of a loss
whether to appeal
1069
00:43:14,083 --> 00:43:19,000
to your decency,
your vanity, your avarice...
1070
00:43:19,083 --> 00:43:22,834
or just to
your fear center.
1071
00:43:22,917 --> 00:43:24,208
Please.
1072
00:43:24,291 --> 00:43:26,250
Anthony returned
the money,
1073
00:43:26,333 --> 00:43:28,583

on that apartment.
1074
00:43:28,667 --> 00:43:30,375
And now he's gone.
1075
00:43:30,458 --> 00:43:32,625
You chased him off.
I did.
1076
00:43:32,709 --> 00:43:35,041
And I can't say
that you were wrong.
1077
00:43:35,125 --> 00:43:36,583
I'm embarrassed
and ashamed and, yes,
1078
00:43:36,667 --> 00:43:39,917
I am afraid of whatever
you're gonna do next.
1079
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,041
So congratulations.
1080
00:43:42,125 --> 00:43:43,917
Your fucked up tactics
fucked me up.
1081
00:43:49,417 --> 00:43:52,709
This is
a postnuptial agreement.
1082
00:43:52,792 --> 00:43:54,834
It entitles you
to 50,000 dollars
1083
00:43:54,917 --> 00:43:58,458
for every year you stay
in the marriage.
1084
00:43:58,542 --> 00:44:00,542
Which means, all told,
you'll be walking away
1085
00:44:00,625 --> 00:44:01,917
with 50,000 dollars.
1086
00:44:04,542 --> 00:44:06,166
You don't need to read it.
1087
00:44:06,250 --> 00:44:08,709
I may play dirty,
but I don't deal dirty.
1088
00:44:08,792 --> 00:44:10,709
Just sign it,
take it to Ira,
1089
00:44:10,792 --> 00:44:13,083
and then tell him
that you're leaving,
1090
00:44:13,166 --> 00:44:17,208
but that you wanted to do it
with integrity.
1091

[sighs]
1092
00:44:34,166 --> 00:44:37,000
I liked him.
1093
00:44:39,083 --> 00:44:41,083
And I really did try
to love him.
1094
00:44:41,166 --> 00:44:44,208
Try harder.

-You give a marriage seven years
1096

1097
00:44:47,500 --> 00:44:48,583
-the notion of a divorce.
-Dad.
1098
00:44:48,667 --> 00:44:51,667
From the day the Dorsey Brothers
showed that Presley boy
1099
00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:53,041
swiveling his hips,
1100
00:44:53,125 --> 00:44:54,250
there's been a slow
but steady erosion
1101
00:44:54,333 --> 00:44:56,291
of the family.
1102
00:44:56,375 --> 00:44:58,250
Well, here is how
you keep one going:
1103
00:44:58,333 --> 00:44:59,750
You find a group of friends
better than you,
1104
00:44:59,834 --> 00:45:04,583
find one worse,
bitch about them to each other,
1105
00:45:04,667 --> 00:45:06,750
and then
when you're all bitched out,
1106
00:45:06,834 --> 00:45:07,834
run ten miles a day.
1107
00:45:07,917 --> 00:45:11,667
Take your birth control pills
and flush them;
1108
00:45:11,750 --> 00:45:15,542
and make that kid
your project together.
1109
00:45:15,625 --> 00:45:18,542
And if Ira doesn't know
how to fuck you,
1110
00:45:18,625 --> 00:45:19,792
you teach him.
1111
00:45:19,875 --> 00:45:21,458
Okay. Yeah.
1112
00:45:21,542 --> 00:45:23,625
I'm not done.
One more thing:
1113
00:45:23,709 --> 00:45:26,041
give yourself the lime test.
You stick your finger
1114
00:45:26,125 --> 00:45:27,792
in lime juice
and put it up inside.
1115
00:45:27,875 --> 00:45:29,834
And if it stings,
get yourself cleaned out.
1116
00:45:29,917 --> 00:45:34,875
Do not bring the clap
home to your husband;
1117
00:45:34,959 --> 00:45:36,291
it's uncivil.
1118
00:45:47,834 --> 00:45:49,959
That's what you meant
by "advisor"?
1119
00:45:50,041 --> 00:45:53,458
Ira doesn't want or need
another divorce.
1120
00:45:53,542 --> 00:45:55,333
[sighs]
He needs a wife who's broken in.
1121
00:45:55,417 --> 00:45:58,500
And since he can't break her,
I'll do it for him.
1122
00:46:00,875 --> 00:46:04,959
This is what's gonna
make him happy.
1123
00:46:05,041 --> 00:46:09,000
And that's what you want,
right, son?
1124
00:46:11,583 --> 00:46:15,083

Of course you did,

in the first place.
