1
00:00:00,375 --> 00:00:02,752
[Kate]
Previously on Billions...
2
00:00:02,794 --> 00:00:05,338
The very first
New York Olympics.
3
00:00:05,380 --> 00:00:07,465
The city's down, hurting.
4
00:00:07,507 --> 00:00:09,926
It's the perfect
opportunity to rebuild.
5
00:00:09,968 --> 00:00:14,139
Selecting a host city
is a very political process.
6
00:00:14,180 --> 00:00:16,182
I want to make an impression,
but as I understand it,
7
00:00:16,224 --> 00:00:17,809
the men and women
of the commission
8
00:00:17,851 --> 00:00:20,353
don't look kindly upon
strangers bearing gifts.
9
00:00:20,395 --> 00:00:24,024
The office is not where
my new war is going to be waged.
10
00:00:24,065 --> 00:00:25,984
Not at first.
11
00:00:26,026 --> 00:00:28,236
The venue matters less
than the message.
12
00:00:28,278 --> 00:00:31,031
No, I realized
it's not one billionaire
13
00:00:31,072 --> 00:00:32,699
having his way
with the City.
14
00:00:32,741 --> 00:00:34,659
The overall effect
of the billionaire class...
15
00:00:35,744 --> 00:00:37,328
they're a scourge.
16
00:00:37,370 --> 00:00:38,872
Prince has different
priorities.
17
00:00:38,913 --> 00:00:40,373
He seems to be after
more than profits here.
18
00:00:40,415 --> 00:00:42,375
-So, what are you saying?
-I don't know yet,
19
00:00:42,417 --> 00:00:44,044
but I know he's not Axe.
20
00:00:44,085 --> 00:00:46,046
I am hereby creating
the Prince List.
21
00:00:46,087 --> 00:00:49,215
Shedding all the dirty capital
currently invested.
22
00:00:49,257 --> 00:00:52,635
From now on, clients will have
to qualify to invest with us.
23
00:00:52,677 --> 00:00:55,221
Sometimes you just
have to break some shit.
24
00:00:55,263 --> 00:00:57,348
Make them know
that no one is safe.
25
00:00:57,390 --> 00:00:59,059
You promised me
a winning season, Chuck.
26
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:00,518
I'm running out of time
if I'll have to quit.
27
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,395
I can't lose my MVP yet.
28
00:01:02,437 --> 00:01:03,730
I need you, Kate.
29
00:01:03,772 --> 00:01:05,356
Okay, boss.
30
00:01:05,398 --> 00:01:07,067
[Chuck] What do we do
when the carpetbaggers
31
00:01:07,108 --> 00:01:10,737
and the land barons
try to shove us out of the way?
32
00:01:10,779 --> 00:01:12,572
We shove back!
33
00:01:12,614 --> 00:01:14,699
[all]
Take back our city!
34
00:01:14,741 --> 00:01:16,785
Take back our city!
35
00:01:46,022 --> 00:01:48,399
I was approached.
36
00:01:48,441 --> 00:01:50,110
For a job?
37
00:01:50,151 --> 00:01:52,737
Nobody said anything
about a job.
38
00:01:52,779 --> 00:01:54,364
It's a job.
39
00:01:58,827 --> 00:02:01,079
You did good by coming to me.
40
00:02:01,121 --> 00:02:02,872
So, obviously,
I'm not going--
41
00:02:02,914 --> 00:02:04,207
Oh, no, you're going.
42
00:02:05,291 --> 00:02:06,668
But you're going for me.
43
00:02:08,795 --> 00:02:10,964
You'll be my Vincent Terranova.
44
00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:19,389
It's natural to celebrate,
to go big.
45
00:02:19,430 --> 00:02:21,808
Especially with the tools
you have here.
46
00:02:21,850 --> 00:02:24,561
The fun and the talent
in this room.
47
00:02:24,602 --> 00:02:26,312
You think it's gonna
go on and on and on.
48
00:02:26,354 --> 00:02:28,106
It's never gonna end.
49
00:02:28,148 --> 00:02:29,732
But we know that's not true.
50
00:02:29,774 --> 00:02:32,277
You all in this room
are not immune
51
00:02:32,318 --> 00:02:35,196
to the mistakes
other people make,
52
00:02:35,238 --> 00:02:38,658
where they spend
more than they make.
53
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:42,370
The burn rate gets them
every time.
54
00:02:42,412 --> 00:02:45,540
I've had 52 players
drafted in the NBA.
55
00:02:45,582 --> 00:02:47,834
Thirty-five are in the league
right now.
56
00:02:47,876 --> 00:02:50,503
My suggestion to them
and to you:
57
00:02:50,545 --> 00:02:53,339
Put the first million away!
58
00:02:53,381 --> 00:02:55,550
Forget you have it.
59
00:02:55,592 --> 00:02:57,343
You put yours
back in this fund,
60
00:02:57,385 --> 00:02:59,429
you know five, six, seven years,
61
00:02:59,470 --> 00:03:01,514
you're a multimillionaire.
62
00:03:01,556 --> 00:03:04,350
With that behind you,
63
00:03:04,392 --> 00:03:05,852
no fear.
64
00:03:05,894 --> 00:03:07,645
No anxiety seeps in.
65
00:03:07,687 --> 00:03:11,649
You have a clear mind
to think good thoughts.
66
00:03:11,691 --> 00:03:14,194
All of a sudden,
you get in the zone,
67
00:03:14,235 --> 00:03:16,613
and you're doing stuff you don't
even believe you could do,
68
00:03:16,654 --> 00:03:19,157
and you win championships.
69
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,367
National championships.
70
00:03:21,409 --> 00:03:23,286
And when you win
a national championship...
71
00:03:23,328 --> 00:03:24,996
I've never played
basketball,
72
00:03:25,038 --> 00:03:27,373
but I'd follow this man
through the gates of hell.
73
00:03:27,415 --> 00:03:31,169
[Coach Cal] ...don't let
the burn rate drag you down,
74
00:03:31,211 --> 00:03:33,630
because at the end of the day,
75
00:03:33,671 --> 00:03:37,592
it's about winning championships
for all of us, isn't it?
76
00:03:37,634 --> 00:03:39,677
[applause]
77
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:41,721
Coach gave us a great deal
on the speaking fee.
78
00:03:41,763 --> 00:03:44,057
He really did.
Worth every cent.
79
00:03:44,098 --> 00:03:45,683
And I hear he's donating it
to charity,
80
00:03:45,725 --> 00:03:47,143
so a win for all.
81
00:04:14,128 --> 00:04:15,546
[Prince]
State-of-the-art facilities,
82
00:04:15,588 --> 00:04:18,341
accommodations,
transportation.
83
00:04:18,383 --> 00:04:21,886
Designed to accommodate any
and all environmental concerns.
84
00:04:21,928 --> 00:04:24,597
Everything pristine.
85
00:04:26,975 --> 00:04:28,184
Uh-huh.
86
00:04:28,226 --> 00:04:29,936
Yeah, well,
I tell you, Mike,
87
00:04:29,978 --> 00:04:31,521
the whole thing'd
be a lot more believable
88
00:04:31,562 --> 00:04:33,439
if there was, uh,
dirt somewhere.
89
00:04:33,481 --> 00:04:34,899
-[laughs]
-I mean, just...
90
00:04:34,941 --> 00:04:36,359
New York City's
never been this clean.
91
00:04:36,401 --> 00:04:37,986
It was never
my mandate before.
92
00:04:44,826 --> 00:04:46,828
I told them,
make it dazzling.
93
00:04:46,869 --> 00:04:49,122
Dazzle the man, don't leave
anything to the imagination.
94
00:04:49,163 --> 00:04:50,456
And that's what I'm gonna do
95
00:04:50,498 --> 00:04:52,166
when the Games
are actually here.
96
00:04:52,208 --> 00:04:54,168
You know, they used to have
a sundae at Haagen-Dazs
97
00:04:54,210 --> 00:04:56,004
called the Dazzler.
98
00:04:56,045 --> 00:04:58,631
I think they still do. You know,
it's dulce de leche ice cream
99
00:04:58,673 --> 00:05:00,383
with, like,
ribbons of caramel,
100
00:05:00,425 --> 00:05:02,427
and then more dulce,
more caramel.
101
00:05:02,468 --> 00:05:04,304
Then you'd put whipped cream
on it, and then they would just
102
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:05,930
cover the whole thing in,
like, hot caramel sauce.
103
00:05:05,972 --> 00:05:07,890
It earns its name:
the Dazzler.
104
00:05:07,932 --> 00:05:10,393
I would guzzle
that sucker down.
105
00:05:10,435 --> 00:05:11,686
But, you know...
106
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:14,439
before long,
107
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,734
I'd start to feel milk-sick
and bloated.
108
00:05:17,775 --> 00:05:19,986
And, you see, I'm afraid
it's going to be the same way
109
00:05:20,028 --> 00:05:21,821
with the Olympic Games
here in our city.
110
00:05:21,863 --> 00:05:23,781
Could be delicious,
111
00:05:23,823 --> 00:05:25,992
but more likely to make me ill
when the voters paddle my ass
112
00:05:26,034 --> 00:05:27,243
'cause they don't like them,
so...
113
00:05:27,285 --> 00:05:28,786
Everyone loves--
114
00:05:28,828 --> 00:05:30,246
Chuck Rhoades changed
the conversation
115
00:05:30,288 --> 00:05:31,831
before it even started,
all right?
116
00:05:31,873 --> 00:05:33,333
Now, we wouldn't be selling
the Games,
117
00:05:33,374 --> 00:05:35,001
we'd be defending them
from the jump.
118
00:05:35,043 --> 00:05:37,003
And the city council,
legislator, activists,
119
00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:39,088
they're all going to crap
on this Olympic bid
120
00:05:39,130 --> 00:05:40,798
and they're going to tag it
with regulations,
121
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:42,258
and that's after
you jump through
122
00:05:42,300 --> 00:05:44,761
a bunch of fucking hoops
first-- flaming ones.
123
00:05:44,802 --> 00:05:47,013
You can't win if you
forfeit before the tip-off.
124
00:05:47,055 --> 00:05:49,265
Yeah, well, the only winner
in this hopeless fucking outing
125
00:05:49,307 --> 00:05:50,808
is going to be your chief
legal counsel
126
00:05:50,850 --> 00:05:52,393
in billable hours.
127
00:05:52,435 --> 00:05:54,979
You and I, we can solve
these issues together.
128
00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:56,397
The Games are never
coming to the city
129
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:57,774
without the governor's support.
130
00:05:57,815 --> 00:05:59,567
I hope that I can
count on it.
131
00:05:59,609 --> 00:06:03,571
Mike, public opinion
is 2% positive on this.
132
00:06:03,613 --> 00:06:06,366
I believe cancer
is polling at 3%.
133
00:06:06,407 --> 00:06:08,368
Chuck's stunt only worked
'cause it lit a fire
134
00:06:08,409 --> 00:06:09,994
under something
that's already lighted.
135
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:12,288
I am not getting
in the bucket bailing relay line
136
00:06:12,330 --> 00:06:13,873
next to you on this one,
all right?
137
00:06:13,915 --> 00:06:16,250
Buzz me when you got something
that'll work.
138
00:06:23,257 --> 00:06:26,177
God, is the stink of losing
actually sticking?
139
00:06:26,219 --> 00:06:28,721
I don't want
that gamy shit on me.
140
00:06:41,359 --> 00:06:45,363
If he's right and we're stuck
in a municipal swamp, we need--
141
00:06:45,405 --> 00:06:46,697
Some serious legal firepower.
142
00:06:46,739 --> 00:06:47,990
[Prince]
Yes.
143
00:06:55,540 --> 00:06:57,834
White-shoe firm.
Maybe more than one.
144
00:07:05,842 --> 00:07:07,176
A fixer at bar.
A street fighter.
145
00:07:07,218 --> 00:07:08,678
A master of the dark arts.
146
00:07:08,719 --> 00:07:10,430
Bill Barr's a little
controversial right now.
147
00:07:10,471 --> 00:07:12,098
Someone to navigate
the land mines,
148
00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:14,308
specifically the ones
planted by Chuck Rhoades.
149
00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:16,519
We have to hire
from inside the government,
150
00:07:16,561 --> 00:07:18,688
to backslap and crony our way
past the city council.
151
00:07:18,729 --> 00:07:20,398
You're saying hire the guy
who set the speed traps,
152
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,108
and you'll always know
when to slow down.
153
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:23,526
Absolument.
154
00:07:23,568 --> 00:07:25,486
Hell, we hired Spyros
straight from the SEC,
155
00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:27,321
and as lame as he is,
156
00:07:27,363 --> 00:07:29,490
we haven't gotten calls
from enforcement for two years.
157
00:07:29,532 --> 00:07:30,950
Someone like
Manhattan D.A. Gramm.
158
00:07:30,992 --> 00:07:32,535
Seems likable,
but full-on pit bull.
159
00:07:32,577 --> 00:07:35,037
She'd be perfect,
but she's a lifer.
160
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,290
M-Tap, I think he's right.
161
00:07:37,331 --> 00:07:39,709
Oh, I'm right,
162
00:07:39,750 --> 00:07:41,586
'cause this
is the down and dirty,
163
00:07:41,627 --> 00:07:43,463
and I happen to be both.
164
00:07:43,504 --> 00:07:45,131
Yep, and if you can add
Neil Young to your band,
165
00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:46,549
you do it,
even if you were already
166
00:07:46,591 --> 00:07:48,301
getting by with Crosby and Nash.
167
00:07:48,342 --> 00:07:49,969
Good. Do it.
168
00:07:50,011 --> 00:07:52,430
Now, on another front:
Colin has the advance team
169
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,140
from the International
Commission of Sport
170
00:07:54,182 --> 00:07:55,433
in from Europe.
171
00:07:55,475 --> 00:07:57,018
They need to leave so happy--
172
00:07:57,059 --> 00:07:59,020
Ah, that's why you came to me.
173
00:07:59,061 --> 00:08:00,521
The down and the dirty,
as you said, yes.
174
00:08:00,563 --> 00:08:02,315
So that they go home
to their masters
175
00:08:02,356 --> 00:08:04,650
and tell them we're the ones
that should top the short list.
176
00:08:04,692 --> 00:08:06,235
And that the gift bags
you'll hand them
177
00:08:06,277 --> 00:08:08,154
will be pendulous and heavy
as Bo Derek's--
178
00:08:08,196 --> 00:08:09,489
You can't just bribe them.
179
00:08:09,530 --> 00:08:11,032
Everyone's willing
to bribe them.
180
00:08:11,073 --> 00:08:12,658
Don't use the "B" word
in front of me. Come on.
181
00:08:12,700 --> 00:08:14,660
Yes, but the point is,
if we were the bribing type--
182
00:08:14,702 --> 00:08:16,120
which we are not--
183
00:08:16,162 --> 00:08:18,331
they need to be made
to feel special.
184
00:08:18,372 --> 00:08:22,502
Pretty certain we have
different ideas on "special."
185
00:08:22,543 --> 00:08:26,130
Well, since you two are already
happy bunkmates, do it together.
186
00:08:27,632 --> 00:08:28,883
[door opens]
187
00:08:49,153 --> 00:08:50,696
[chuckles]
188
00:08:56,536 --> 00:09:00,373
No way. No way you get
all that crap in that pack.
189
00:09:00,414 --> 00:09:03,084
Now, if you had
a spatial algorithm
190
00:09:03,125 --> 00:09:06,170
and someone who knew how
to use it along with you, maybe.
191
00:09:06,212 --> 00:09:08,256
Oh, I guess that'd be you.
192
00:09:08,297 --> 00:09:10,925
Do you want to come along
with your spatial-packing algo?
193
00:09:10,967 --> 00:09:12,802
As your worthy Sherpa.
194
00:09:12,843 --> 00:09:14,512
I'll start optimizing
the algo to our route
195
00:09:14,554 --> 00:09:16,055
for strategic
climate-to-weight--
196
00:09:16,097 --> 00:09:18,599
Oh, bud, buddy.
Yeah, no. Big no.
197
00:09:18,641 --> 00:09:21,352
So, you don't want--
198
00:09:21,394 --> 00:09:23,521
Company? Help? Unh-unh.
199
00:09:23,563 --> 00:09:25,273
[sighs] I'll stuff it in
with a toilet plunger
200
00:09:25,314 --> 00:09:27,942
and throw away half of it
if I have to.
201
00:09:33,281 --> 00:09:36,701
But I won't have to,
because Rolf shows us how.
202
00:09:45,543 --> 00:09:48,337
Feeling that Jack London,
Elizabeth Gilbert call, huh?
203
00:09:48,379 --> 00:09:51,215
I don't aim to leave for another
eight to ten months, at least.
204
00:09:51,257 --> 00:09:52,675
Just pre-planning.
205
00:09:52,717 --> 00:09:54,719
-Once you've saved up enough.
-Right.
206
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,888
No shame in the frugality game.
I'll peace once I have 600k.
207
00:09:57,930 --> 00:10:00,099
But for now, it's more
about grooving the feeling.
208
00:10:00,141 --> 00:10:01,601
Visualizing.
209
00:10:01,642 --> 00:10:04,020
Active anticipation
has psycho-physical benefits,
210
00:10:04,061 --> 00:10:05,563
and you can afford
the time off.
211
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:07,773
But why do this here
and not at home?
212
00:10:07,815 --> 00:10:09,900
I had enough at-home time,
thanks.
213
00:10:09,942 --> 00:10:12,278
And the fantasy is,
you go right from work,
214
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,031
like one day you just stand up
and grab your rucksack
215
00:10:15,072 --> 00:10:17,575
and take off from your desk
into the sun-drenched deck
216
00:10:17,617 --> 00:10:19,910
of some Turkish hostel
in the summer.
217
00:10:19,952 --> 00:10:21,621
If reality were as good
as the fantasy,
218
00:10:21,662 --> 00:10:23,414
we wouldn't have had
to invent "The Sims."
219
00:10:23,456 --> 00:10:25,958
If we start talking Sims,
I'll never get back to work.
220
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,668
Yeah. I lost all of 8th grade
221
00:10:27,710 --> 00:10:31,255
in service of one particularly
needy pet Sim dog, an Akita.
222
00:10:31,297 --> 00:10:33,966
Thing is,
fantasy or reality,
223
00:10:34,008 --> 00:10:35,926
you aren't calculating
opportunities lost.
224
00:10:35,968 --> 00:10:38,638
Here. To your career.
To your development.
225
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,308
Come on, you never think
about getting free?
226
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:43,684
No hidden agenda.
227
00:10:43,726 --> 00:10:44,977
I too have considered
and calculated
228
00:10:45,019 --> 00:10:46,312
an out number.
229
00:10:46,354 --> 00:10:48,147
Assuming it's a little steeper
230
00:10:48,189 --> 00:10:50,149
than the cost
of a Pittsburgh duplex, huh?
231
00:10:50,191 --> 00:10:52,026
How much?
232
00:10:52,068 --> 00:10:55,196
Twenty mil? Fifty?
233
00:10:55,237 --> 00:10:56,989
-About twice that.
-Oof!
234
00:10:57,031 --> 00:10:58,824
Boss wants a beach house
and a ski chalet.
235
00:10:58,866 --> 00:10:59,992
No.
236
00:11:00,034 --> 00:11:01,452
No, they do not.
237
00:11:01,494 --> 00:11:03,162
Or that's not the why, anyway.
238
00:11:03,204 --> 00:11:05,081
Correct. It's not for lifestyle.
239
00:11:05,122 --> 00:11:07,500
I plan to leave once I've
accrued enough personal capital
240
00:11:07,541 --> 00:11:10,586
to drive real, measurable,
prosocial advancement.
241
00:11:10,628 --> 00:11:13,589
A 5% withdrawal rate to protect
against principal erosion?
242
00:11:13,631 --> 00:11:15,132
Exactly.
243
00:11:15,174 --> 00:11:16,926
One hundred million
is a solid starting point
244
00:11:16,967 --> 00:11:19,970
to build a legacy of truly
effective humanitarian progress.
245
00:11:20,012 --> 00:11:23,140
Okay, but if my math is right,
and I'm p-sure it is,
246
00:11:23,182 --> 00:11:26,143
you still got a while
before you get to temple-run.
247
00:11:26,185 --> 00:11:28,646
I do, so I gotta serve
my master, get paid,
248
00:11:28,688 --> 00:11:30,189
and make sure
I can move the needle
249
00:11:30,231 --> 00:11:32,149
even before
I hit my number.
250
00:11:32,191 --> 00:11:34,527
To that end, there's something
we need to work on for Prince.
251
00:11:34,568 --> 00:11:36,654
-He asked you to?
-Not yet.
252
00:11:44,620 --> 00:11:46,330
Oh.
253
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:47,915
Yes.
254
00:11:47,957 --> 00:11:50,543
I do love a Taylor Ham.
255
00:11:50,584 --> 00:11:52,712
I made a swing out to Jersey
and nabbed 'em.
256
00:11:52,753 --> 00:11:54,004
Nothing like the original.
257
00:11:54,046 --> 00:11:56,215
Absolutely so.
Tremendous sandwich.
258
00:11:56,257 --> 00:11:57,717
The pork roll.
John Taylor original.
259
00:11:57,758 --> 00:11:58,968
[laughs]
260
00:11:59,009 --> 00:12:00,636
And you, Chuck Rhoades,
261
00:12:00,678 --> 00:12:02,138
went out to Jersey
and snagged us a couple.
262
00:12:02,179 --> 00:12:03,389
I did.
263
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:05,558
-I bagged a few for us.
-Ah.
264
00:12:05,599 --> 00:12:08,185
It's a shame the Olympics
only come every four years,
265
00:12:08,227 --> 00:12:11,230
or else I'd have guys like you
and Prince playing fetch for me
266
00:12:11,272 --> 00:12:13,899
up and down the Eastern Seaboard
on the regular.
267
00:12:13,941 --> 00:12:15,901
Could fire half my staff.
268
00:12:15,943 --> 00:12:18,070
Governor, I am a longtime
friend and ally,
269
00:12:18,112 --> 00:12:19,864
while Mike Prince is--
270
00:12:19,905 --> 00:12:22,825
Between us, I told him
he's mostly shit out of luck.
271
00:12:22,867 --> 00:12:24,910
Perfect.
So you're with me on this.
272
00:12:24,952 --> 00:12:26,912
That's what I told Prince.
273
00:12:26,954 --> 00:12:28,414
And it might be true.
274
00:12:28,456 --> 00:12:32,418
Listen, I know I got to take
a flume ride
275
00:12:32,460 --> 00:12:34,420
with one of you two lunatics
on this.
276
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:36,380
I just haven't decided
who I win with yet.
277
00:12:36,422 --> 00:12:38,549
And you both need me more,
278
00:12:38,591 --> 00:12:40,426
so I finally
got my balls back.
279
00:12:40,468 --> 00:12:42,928
Can you hear 'em clank?
280
00:12:42,970 --> 00:12:45,973
Loud as the cymbal crashes
on "Hungry Like the Wolf."
281
00:12:46,015 --> 00:12:48,601
But perhaps this isn't
a decision
282
00:12:48,642 --> 00:12:50,811
that requires a great show
of inner steel.
283
00:12:50,853 --> 00:12:52,938
Perhaps it merely
requires remembering
284
00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:56,275
that we, both of us,
serve the people.
285
00:12:56,317 --> 00:12:59,737
And Mike Prince's grand plan,
it doesn't really serve them.
286
00:12:59,779 --> 00:13:01,530
We know this.
287
00:13:01,572 --> 00:13:03,240
You may know this.
288
00:13:04,658 --> 00:13:07,203
But I may need
a little more convincing.
289
00:13:10,164 --> 00:13:12,041
[sighs]
290
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,543
I have an ask.
291
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:27,223
I need your input
on a new hire.
292
00:13:27,264 --> 00:13:28,641
Trader, PM, or analyst?
293
00:13:28,682 --> 00:13:29,934
Lawyer.
294
00:13:29,975 --> 00:13:31,435
I need one
from the other side
295
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:33,354
to break trail with city
and state lawmakers.
296
00:13:34,939 --> 00:13:37,733
I know what you're asking,
and I have the answer.
297
00:13:39,193 --> 00:13:40,861
Kate Sacker is the name
you know you need to say
298
00:13:40,903 --> 00:13:42,446
but can't quite
bring yourself to.
299
00:13:42,488 --> 00:13:44,198
[laughs] Salut.
300
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,658
Is she as good
as they say?
301
00:13:45,699 --> 00:13:47,660
Steel-trap legal mind,
charisma,
302
00:13:47,701 --> 00:13:49,286
knows how
to work the angles.
303
00:13:49,328 --> 00:13:52,540
Has political ambitions too.
Learned at Chuck's elbow.
304
00:13:52,581 --> 00:13:53,833
Sounds amazing.
Is she gettable?
305
00:13:53,874 --> 00:13:55,793
No. She's completely loyal.
306
00:13:55,835 --> 00:13:57,461
-Right, who's next on your--?
-There's no next.
307
00:13:57,503 --> 00:13:59,296
Kim Philby
seemed loyal too.
308
00:13:59,338 --> 00:14:01,131
And he broke
a nation's heart.
309
00:14:01,173 --> 00:14:02,842
What's my best first move?
310
00:14:03,884 --> 00:14:05,594
Nah.
311
00:14:05,636 --> 00:14:08,681
I'm going to respectfully
stay out of this one.
312
00:14:08,722 --> 00:14:11,016
Things are fraught enough
between me and my ex-husband
313
00:14:11,058 --> 00:14:14,186
without me steering you in
the plucking of his personnel.
314
00:14:14,228 --> 00:14:16,480
There must be something
that would induce you
315
00:14:16,522 --> 00:14:18,107
to do it for me,
316
00:14:18,148 --> 00:14:19,775
to make it worth it.
317
00:14:21,068 --> 00:14:22,695
I'm not that transactional.
318
00:14:22,736 --> 00:14:24,905
And it's not
just because of Chuck.
319
00:14:26,574 --> 00:14:28,367
Sacker's special in all the ways
I just mentioned,
320
00:14:28,409 --> 00:14:29,952
but in intangible ways too.
321
00:14:29,994 --> 00:14:32,705
The thought of bringing her
in here?
322
00:14:32,746 --> 00:14:34,540
Even if I dealt
with the Chuck-of-it-all--
323
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:36,041
In here is not the place
it used to be.
324
00:14:36,083 --> 00:14:37,501
We're different.
325
00:14:37,543 --> 00:14:40,212
I want to believe
that that's true.
326
00:14:40,254 --> 00:14:41,881
Consider it.
327
00:14:41,922 --> 00:14:44,049
You hear what you're asking,
right?
328
00:14:44,091 --> 00:14:46,218
You hear what I'm offering,
right?
329
00:14:46,260 --> 00:14:47,803
So will you?
330
00:14:55,811 --> 00:14:57,646
Well, if anyone could give
Jersey a fighting chance,
331
00:14:57,688 --> 00:14:59,648
it's Bruce Springsteen
and Jon Bon Jovi.
332
00:14:59,690 --> 00:15:01,567
I'm glad to hear you fellas
are down for the cause.
333
00:15:01,609 --> 00:15:03,569
I'll send you details.
334
00:15:03,611 --> 00:15:06,405
Great stuff. Just great.
Thank you.
335
00:15:07,656 --> 00:15:08,866
The Boss and Bon Jovi.
336
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:10,117
Ah.
337
00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:11,535
You starting a band?
338
00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:13,037
We may have a meeting
across the river,
339
00:15:13,078 --> 00:15:14,663
if you know
what I'm saying.
340
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:18,000
Let's switch to you
knowing what I'm saying.
341
00:15:18,042 --> 00:15:19,418
Congress.
342
00:15:19,460 --> 00:15:21,211
It's time.
343
00:15:21,253 --> 00:15:23,005
I need you to get guys
like that donating to me.
344
00:15:23,047 --> 00:15:25,090
-Playing for me.
-And they will. We will.
345
00:15:25,132 --> 00:15:26,592
Soon enough,
but not quite yet.
346
00:15:26,634 --> 00:15:28,218
We got big stuff
on our plate.
347
00:15:28,260 --> 00:15:31,221
I need to start raising money,
building a staff,
348
00:15:31,263 --> 00:15:33,265
doing the grip-and-grins
in my district,
349
00:15:33,307 --> 00:15:35,851
the kinds of things I cannot do
while I'm on the state's dime.
350
00:15:35,893 --> 00:15:37,394
I get it.
351
00:15:37,436 --> 00:15:40,105
We all had to hit
the pause button for months.
352
00:15:40,147 --> 00:15:42,066
But everyone's plans
have had to take a back seat
353
00:15:42,107 --> 00:15:43,275
for the greater good.
354
00:15:43,317 --> 00:15:44,944
That was fine for a while.
355
00:15:44,985 --> 00:15:46,612
No more.
356
00:15:46,654 --> 00:15:48,781
All due respect,
I need big cases with big wins
357
00:15:48,822 --> 00:15:50,824
to burnish the rep,
or I need to get out.
358
00:15:50,866 --> 00:15:55,162
We are going to have big cases.
You will. Very soon.
359
00:15:55,204 --> 00:15:57,164
We're stopping Citizen Prince
from buying off
360
00:15:57,206 --> 00:16:00,334
the greatest metropolis
in the history of mankind,
361
00:16:00,376 --> 00:16:02,753
which will cement
your political place.
362
00:16:05,339 --> 00:16:07,591
You've stayed the course with me
this far.
363
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:09,301
All I ask is that you
use your instincts
364
00:16:09,343 --> 00:16:12,262
and hang in with me
a little longer.
365
00:16:12,304 --> 00:16:15,099
We're finally doing
the good thing for good reason,
366
00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:17,643
and it will be good for you,
Kate.
367
00:16:20,854 --> 00:16:23,399
You know what the most powerful
four-letter word is?
368
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,650
I don't curse much.
369
00:16:24,692 --> 00:16:25,985
"Free."
370
00:16:26,026 --> 00:16:27,569
I know how to unlock it
for our benefit,
371
00:16:27,611 --> 00:16:29,154
and to help a whole whack
of people.
372
00:16:29,196 --> 00:16:31,281
We give Wi-Fi away as part
of our gift to New York.
373
00:16:31,323 --> 00:16:33,158
-That a huge--
-There's a company.
374
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,576
People of the World.
375
00:16:34,618 --> 00:16:36,161
They use blockchain
to siphon unused Wi-Fi
376
00:16:36,203 --> 00:16:38,747
from existing networks
of major telecom companies,
377
00:16:38,789 --> 00:16:41,083
then bundle the undetectable
excess for civilian use.
378
00:16:41,125 --> 00:16:42,960
So free public Internet
can start now in New York
379
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:45,129
as a goodwill incentive
pre-Olympics,
380
00:16:45,170 --> 00:16:47,006
and continue gratis
through the Games for athletes,
381
00:16:47,047 --> 00:16:48,841
and to cover the influx
of tourists.
382
00:16:48,882 --> 00:16:51,301
Dumpster diving for bit rate.
Genius.
383
00:16:51,343 --> 00:16:54,179
-You have a line into it?
-Yes. Here's the pitch:
384
00:16:54,221 --> 00:16:56,640
New Yorkers get it gratis,
courtesy of the Games.
385
00:16:56,682 --> 00:16:58,892
Free Internet in the five
boroughs is the holy grail.
386
00:16:58,934 --> 00:17:01,311
And we set it up so that every
time a New Yorker uses it,
387
00:17:01,353 --> 00:17:02,730
someone in sub-Saharan Africa
388
00:17:02,771 --> 00:17:04,231
gets the same allotment
of Wi-Fi.
389
00:17:05,774 --> 00:17:08,110
It's a do-good, feel-good,
look-good play.
390
00:17:08,152 --> 00:17:10,195
The greatest trio since
Run-DMC and Jam Master Jay.
391
00:17:10,237 --> 00:17:11,864
What's it gonna cost?
392
00:17:11,905 --> 00:17:14,199
Twenty-two million,
and we control the company.
393
00:17:19,872 --> 00:17:21,081
Do it.
394
00:17:26,128 --> 00:17:28,213
You seem like a man
who needs antioxidants.
395
00:17:28,255 --> 00:17:30,049
[Wags]
Hmm, shit, you're right.
396
00:17:30,090 --> 00:17:32,176
How's this whole
"Tango and Cash" thing going?
397
00:17:32,217 --> 00:17:34,053
Ah, the Stallone-Russell
classic.
398
00:17:34,094 --> 00:17:35,888
Which one is Stallone in that?
399
00:17:35,929 --> 00:17:37,806
-[Wags & Prince] Tango.
-Glad you know that one, Wags.
400
00:17:37,848 --> 00:17:39,391
Which is why you will relate,
personally,
401
00:17:39,433 --> 00:17:41,393
so well to certain of these
folks on the advance team.
402
00:17:41,435 --> 00:17:43,020
Make them feel special.
403
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:45,064
I will handle the business
forward part of the evening,
404
00:17:45,105 --> 00:17:47,858
the front of the El Camino,
as it were, and you will--
405
00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:49,359
Organize the junk
in the trunk.
406
00:17:49,401 --> 00:17:51,904
Sure. I already went
to the trouble to get...
407
00:17:51,945 --> 00:17:53,906
I don't need
the granular detai--
408
00:17:57,242 --> 00:17:58,452
Are those Quaaludes?
409
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:00,537
That's right. Methaqualone.
410
00:18:00,579 --> 00:18:03,832
A.K.A., Beiruts, Bandits,
Wagon Wheels.
411
00:18:03,874 --> 00:18:06,126
They're not Lemmons.
I couldn't get that lucky.
412
00:18:06,168 --> 00:18:07,544
But they are Rorers.
413
00:18:07,586 --> 00:18:09,296
Our friends will feel
as warm and fuzzy
414
00:18:09,338 --> 00:18:11,590
as a baby kitten
on the cover of Cat Fancy.
415
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:19,181
Can you legally possess those
in the U.S.?
416
00:18:19,223 --> 00:18:21,934
I have a prescription...
of sorts.
417
00:18:21,975 --> 00:18:23,852
Another reason why
I won't be there for that part.
418
00:18:23,894 --> 00:18:26,230
[Wags] Neither will I.
I'll just hand them out.
419
00:18:26,271 --> 00:18:28,273
I'm working
on a project that...
420
00:18:30,818 --> 00:18:34,613
Chelz and I have decided
to try, you know?
421
00:18:34,655 --> 00:18:36,406
She's got this app
which tells her
422
00:18:36,448 --> 00:18:37,699
when she's...
423
00:18:39,451 --> 00:18:41,370
when she's ovulating.
424
00:18:42,955 --> 00:18:45,124
So when the thing bings or
beeps or whatever it does,
425
00:18:45,165 --> 00:18:46,959
I need to hop to.
426
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,211
I have got to be home and ready
by 5:30 a.m. that morning,
427
00:18:49,253 --> 00:18:51,088
guns loaded,
so to speak.
428
00:18:51,130 --> 00:18:54,424
Well, at the appropriate time,
I cannot wait to wish you mazel.
429
00:18:54,466 --> 00:18:56,552
Tango and Cash, or is it more
Bialystock and Bloom?
430
00:18:56,593 --> 00:18:58,679
I can't quite tell.
431
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,681
But I think I like it.
432
00:19:00,722 --> 00:19:02,307
Night, gents.
433
00:19:09,815 --> 00:19:12,276
[typing]
434
00:19:12,317 --> 00:19:14,945
Initial infrastructure costs
in sub-Saharan Africa
435
00:19:14,987 --> 00:19:16,446
are hella-spensive.
436
00:19:16,488 --> 00:19:18,365
Yes, as most things
of value are.
437
00:19:18,407 --> 00:19:20,242
The numbers,
they just-- They don't...
438
00:19:20,284 --> 00:19:22,536
It's a sucky thing to say,
but I'm just gonna say it.
439
00:19:22,578 --> 00:19:24,454
We should dump
the Africa Wi-Fi piece.
440
00:19:24,496 --> 00:19:26,498
Not dump it,
but hold it.
441
00:19:26,540 --> 00:19:28,667
If that capital is rolled
into marketing and development,
442
00:19:28,709 --> 00:19:30,544
the company comes out
of the Olympics stronger--
443
00:19:30,586 --> 00:19:32,045
I'm sorry you did say it,
444
00:19:32,087 --> 00:19:33,881
because this is all about
the Africa piece.
445
00:19:33,922 --> 00:19:36,216
That's the whole thing.
We'll make money, and do good.
446
00:19:36,258 --> 00:19:38,844
It won't be as much money.
Barely any, really.
447
00:19:38,886 --> 00:19:41,013
Willing to pay that price.
448
00:19:42,347 --> 00:19:44,516
Yeah. Me too.
More than willing.
449
00:19:44,558 --> 00:19:45,767
That's what I always say.
450
00:19:47,895 --> 00:19:49,354
It's not really.
451
00:19:49,396 --> 00:19:51,523
It just seemed like
what I should say now.
452
00:19:51,565 --> 00:19:52,691
[softly]
Oh.
453
00:19:54,318 --> 00:19:55,444
[soft grunt]
454
00:19:55,485 --> 00:19:58,238
[crunching]
455
00:20:12,085 --> 00:20:13,795
[indistinct chatter]
456
00:20:18,133 --> 00:20:19,426
Kate.
457
00:20:21,261 --> 00:20:23,055
So nice to see you.
458
00:20:23,096 --> 00:20:24,348
And you.
459
00:20:24,389 --> 00:20:25,891
Wasn't she incredible?
460
00:20:25,933 --> 00:20:27,726
Oh, I'm buzzing.
461
00:20:27,768 --> 00:20:31,104
I still remember how I felt
reading Crenshaw's 1989 paper
462
00:20:31,146 --> 00:20:33,357
on intersectionality for
the first time in law school.
463
00:20:33,398 --> 00:20:35,108
Hm.
464
00:20:35,150 --> 00:20:36,401
So how have you been?
465
00:20:36,443 --> 00:20:38,403
Bene. You?
466
00:20:38,445 --> 00:20:40,030
How goes Axe Cap?
467
00:20:40,072 --> 00:20:41,740
It's not Axe Cap anymore.
468
00:20:41,782 --> 00:20:44,076
I mean, okay, but...
469
00:20:44,117 --> 00:20:46,703
Different name on the shingle.
Different vibe.
470
00:20:46,745 --> 00:20:49,081
-So you say.
-[laughs] No, no.
471
00:20:49,122 --> 00:20:51,083
It's, uh, different.
472
00:20:51,124 --> 00:20:53,502
This guy gives a shit
about more than money.
473
00:20:53,543 --> 00:20:55,420
He still makes plenty.
474
00:20:55,462 --> 00:20:57,172
It's weird,
but in a good way.
475
00:20:57,214 --> 00:20:59,091
But weird.
476
00:20:59,132 --> 00:21:01,593
-Hmm. Sounds like it.
-Yeah, like right now,
477
00:21:01,635 --> 00:21:03,428
we're engaged in
this big municipal project,
478
00:21:03,470 --> 00:21:05,222
poised to make major impact,
479
00:21:05,264 --> 00:21:07,599
but still facing
public-sector resistance.
480
00:21:09,476 --> 00:21:13,105
You could hear what that
sounds like, if you wanted.
481
00:21:13,146 --> 00:21:14,606
Hear it how?
482
00:21:15,607 --> 00:21:16,942
Come by for a half hour.
483
00:21:16,984 --> 00:21:18,193
Meet the guy.
484
00:21:18,235 --> 00:21:19,695
Listen. Talk.
485
00:21:19,736 --> 00:21:21,154
The whole thing.
486
00:21:21,196 --> 00:21:23,115
You suggesting
I walk into your offices?
487
00:21:23,156 --> 00:21:25,242
That's right.
488
00:21:25,284 --> 00:21:27,828
Well, thanks anyway
for thinking of me.
489
00:21:28,996 --> 00:21:30,372
You know, Kate...
490
00:21:31,999 --> 00:21:34,251
sometimes staying too long
is a bigger risk
491
00:21:34,293 --> 00:21:36,962
than leaving too soon.
492
00:21:37,004 --> 00:21:39,298
There's never a right time
to make a big change.
493
00:21:42,676 --> 00:21:44,136
It's good running into you.
494
00:21:44,177 --> 00:21:45,512
You too.
495
00:21:51,810 --> 00:21:53,687
[Chuck]
Act interested, but coy.
496
00:21:53,729 --> 00:21:55,480
Be your charming self.
497
00:21:55,522 --> 00:21:57,983
Engage enough to keep them
flashing the bait,
498
00:21:58,025 --> 00:22:00,652
but make them work for it.
499
00:22:00,694 --> 00:22:02,321
Elida Geisha?
500
00:22:02,362 --> 00:22:03,655
Thank you.
501
00:22:18,295 --> 00:22:20,005
Thanks for coming, Kate.
502
00:22:20,047 --> 00:22:21,757
Wendy said
I had to sit with you.
503
00:22:21,798 --> 00:22:23,175
She said the same
about you.
504
00:22:23,216 --> 00:22:24,801
Nice to be here
without a warrant.
505
00:22:24,843 --> 00:22:26,261
[laughs]
506
00:22:26,303 --> 00:22:27,888
Love what you've done
with the place.
507
00:22:27,929 --> 00:22:30,015
No basis for warrants
in these parts anymore.
508
00:22:30,057 --> 00:22:32,476
Then I'd love to know
what this meeting is about.
509
00:22:32,517 --> 00:22:35,687
It's about me offering you
the role of lead counsel
510
00:22:35,729 --> 00:22:38,565
for New York City's
first ever Olympics.
511
00:22:38,607 --> 00:22:40,150
Nice and shiny.
512
00:22:40,192 --> 00:22:41,693
Why me?
513
00:22:41,735 --> 00:22:44,363
Your granular expertise
in city bureaucracy,
514
00:22:44,404 --> 00:22:45,906
balanced by panoramic
understanding
515
00:22:45,947 --> 00:22:47,574
of the political landscape.
516
00:22:47,616 --> 00:22:50,160
We want you at the epicenter
of this undertaking.
517
00:22:50,202 --> 00:22:52,412
Leading the farthest-reaching
legal proceedings
518
00:22:52,454 --> 00:22:54,664
the state has seen
in a decade.
519
00:22:54,706 --> 00:22:56,500
There's just the tiny wrinkle
of my current boss
520
00:22:56,541 --> 00:22:58,085
and entire career history.
521
00:22:58,126 --> 00:22:59,544
[laughs]
522
00:22:59,586 --> 00:23:01,046
Why would you trust me?
523
00:23:01,088 --> 00:23:02,631
There's nothing illegal
happening here,
524
00:23:02,672 --> 00:23:04,883
so we don't need you
as our co-conspirator.
525
00:23:04,925 --> 00:23:06,635
Our only crime
will be ushering in
526
00:23:06,676 --> 00:23:09,513
a new era of opportunity.
527
00:23:09,554 --> 00:23:13,016
A safer, cleaner,
more prosperous New York.
528
00:23:13,058 --> 00:23:14,893
For who?
529
00:23:14,935 --> 00:23:16,395
Your investors?
530
00:23:16,436 --> 00:23:18,313
When Sinatra sang
about this place,
531
00:23:18,355 --> 00:23:20,899
when Jay-Z and Alicia Keys did,
they meant it.
532
00:23:20,941 --> 00:23:23,735
They captured that romance
533
00:23:23,777 --> 00:23:26,488
and the possibility
of what this city could be.
534
00:23:26,530 --> 00:23:28,698
When you look around now,
is that what you see?
535
00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:30,367
-Of course you don't.
-Of course you don't.
536
00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:32,577
The city's been gored
and gutted.
537
00:23:32,619 --> 00:23:34,746
We're gonna turn it around.
538
00:23:34,788 --> 00:23:36,790
The Games bring
so much in their wake.
539
00:23:36,832 --> 00:23:38,959
Infrastructure.
Excitement.
540
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,128
Free cultural events.
Free Wi-Fi.
541
00:23:41,169 --> 00:23:42,921
Sounds grand.
542
00:23:42,963 --> 00:23:45,132
Where do I fit in?
543
00:23:45,173 --> 00:23:47,134
I need someone to bushwhack
544
00:23:47,175 --> 00:23:48,593
through the legal thickets
545
00:23:48,635 --> 00:23:51,388
so I can make all that
a possibility.
546
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:53,640
Think about how landing
a well-run Olympics
547
00:23:53,682 --> 00:23:55,976
could play for you
in a congressional run.
548
00:23:58,562 --> 00:24:00,188
Nice info,
549
00:24:00,230 --> 00:24:03,442
but it's not at all clear
that this would help
550
00:24:03,483 --> 00:24:05,986
if those were my plans.
551
00:24:06,027 --> 00:24:07,612
By the time I'm done,
552
00:24:07,654 --> 00:24:09,614
this city's gonna be
begging for the big top.
553
00:24:09,656 --> 00:24:11,450
And you'll be touted as
the woman who cleared the way
554
00:24:11,491 --> 00:24:12,784
to make it all possible.
555
00:24:12,826 --> 00:24:14,119
Yeah.
556
00:24:15,287 --> 00:24:16,538
Yeah, okay.
557
00:24:21,793 --> 00:24:23,879
Why don't I send over
some good names.
558
00:24:27,841 --> 00:24:29,468
Thanks for the pricey coffee.
559
00:24:34,598 --> 00:24:37,601
You were right.
It was a job offer.
560
00:24:37,642 --> 00:24:39,728
My experience
with government in general,
561
00:24:39,769 --> 00:24:41,480
and, I think, this office,
was the driver.
562
00:24:41,521 --> 00:24:43,857
Oh, I bet.
What'd you pick up?
563
00:24:43,899 --> 00:24:46,943
They are going to vivify
and beautify this fair city,
564
00:24:46,985 --> 00:24:48,278
first for the Games,
565
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,821
then for all of us
in their wake.
566
00:24:49,863 --> 00:24:51,698
-But there are, of course--
-Regulatory--
567
00:24:51,740 --> 00:24:53,492
Measures and thickets of--
568
00:24:53,533 --> 00:24:55,660
Rules, I'd imagine,
that need--
569
00:24:55,702 --> 00:24:58,121
Just the sort of sharp knife
I carry, yep.
570
00:24:58,163 --> 00:25:00,373
All sorts of infrastructure
improvements,
571
00:25:00,415 --> 00:25:02,209
from buildings to the shit
flying through the air
572
00:25:02,250 --> 00:25:03,627
connecting the world,
573
00:25:03,668 --> 00:25:05,504
which he's going
to give away for free.
574
00:25:05,545 --> 00:25:07,088
Sure.
575
00:25:07,130 --> 00:25:08,632
Sure, they will need
someone like you
576
00:25:08,673 --> 00:25:11,092
if they think the telecom
and wireless folks
577
00:25:11,134 --> 00:25:13,136
are going to welcome
whatever he's got planned.
578
00:25:14,387 --> 00:25:15,972
Not going to be me.
579
00:25:16,014 --> 00:25:17,766
You want me to pass right now,
in front of you?
580
00:25:17,807 --> 00:25:19,142
No. Not yet.
581
00:25:19,184 --> 00:25:21,019
In 24 hours,
you're going to pass.
582
00:25:21,061 --> 00:25:23,021
First, I know who I want
to take that job:
583
00:25:23,063 --> 00:25:25,690
Ira Schirmer.
584
00:25:25,732 --> 00:25:27,651
And I know what I'm going to do
about this bullshit,
585
00:25:27,692 --> 00:25:30,028
pandering free Wi-Fi
initiative too.
586
00:25:31,238 --> 00:25:33,031
You're a wealthy man.
587
00:25:33,073 --> 00:25:36,284
Young wife, young child.
588
00:25:36,326 --> 00:25:38,286
You have it all.
589
00:25:38,328 --> 00:25:40,622
But you know
what you don't have?
590
00:25:40,664 --> 00:25:43,833
An alpaca?
591
00:25:43,875 --> 00:25:45,710
Might be kind of tough
in the apartment.
592
00:25:45,752 --> 00:25:48,713
But, no, it's true. I saw Downey
on the newish Letterman thing.
593
00:25:48,755 --> 00:25:50,382
-Alpacas--
-Relevance.
594
00:25:50,423 --> 00:25:51,925
Access.
595
00:25:51,967 --> 00:25:53,593
Being in the mix.
596
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:55,762
I want this? This sounds like
a pain in the ass.
597
00:25:55,804 --> 00:25:57,806
You need this.
598
00:25:57,847 --> 00:25:59,891
[sighs]
And I get it how?
599
00:26:01,935 --> 00:26:04,187
Prince offered Sacker
a job
600
00:26:04,229 --> 00:26:06,648
steering him through
the legal quagmire.
601
00:26:06,690 --> 00:26:09,150
You go be his baby driver
instead.
602
00:26:09,192 --> 00:26:11,528
That guy is too smart
to go for this.
603
00:26:11,570 --> 00:26:13,029
He knows I'm your friend.
604
00:26:13,071 --> 00:26:15,740
My best friend.
And you lead with that.
605
00:26:15,782 --> 00:26:17,033
This is why
you're perfect for it.
606
00:26:17,075 --> 00:26:18,743
You know my moves and--
607
00:26:18,785 --> 00:26:20,912
-And he sees right through it.
-Not if you declaim:
608
00:26:20,954 --> 00:26:22,664
I won't hurt Rhoades personally.
609
00:26:22,706 --> 00:26:24,583
I love the man.
610
00:26:24,624 --> 00:26:27,085
But this is business,
and I will be your lawyer,
611
00:26:27,127 --> 00:26:30,755
and couldn't betray you
without risking my license.
612
00:26:30,797 --> 00:26:34,426
So I'm an asset,
and you're running me at him.
613
00:26:34,467 --> 00:26:36,428
You been reading Ambler?
614
00:26:36,469 --> 00:26:38,597
Yeah, a bit.
The Zaleshoff books.
615
00:26:38,638 --> 00:26:40,265
And I can tell you,
it's not going to work.
616
00:26:40,307 --> 00:26:41,558
He's-- he's too smart.
617
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,184
So you go further.
618
00:26:43,226 --> 00:26:45,937
We use those very smarts
and his ambition.
619
00:26:47,314 --> 00:26:49,274
You tell him
that your friendship with me
620
00:26:49,316 --> 00:26:51,610
is hurting you
professionally.
621
00:26:51,651 --> 00:26:53,361
-You've lost clients over it.
-[laughs]
622
00:26:53,403 --> 00:26:55,488
You have to show that you're not
afraid to go against me,
623
00:26:55,530 --> 00:26:57,782
that you know my moves
and how to blunt them.
624
00:26:57,824 --> 00:27:00,535
And you commit to it
and mean it.
625
00:27:00,577 --> 00:27:02,412
I can mean it if I have to.
626
00:27:02,454 --> 00:27:03,955
As you have shown me
in the past.
627
00:27:06,791 --> 00:27:08,001
Go do it.
628
00:27:08,043 --> 00:27:09,919
[laughs]
629
00:27:17,552 --> 00:27:20,013
Can't wait to finish
building this boat for you.
630
00:27:20,055 --> 00:27:21,598
-Can you hurry it up?
-Yeah, I am.
631
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,142
I'll have it done for you
in three years.
632
00:27:24,184 --> 00:27:26,144
That includes greening, right?
Has to.
633
00:27:26,186 --> 00:27:27,812
I need this thing
carbon-neutral.
634
00:27:27,854 --> 00:27:30,940
No carbon footprint.
Not just the power plant.
635
00:27:30,982 --> 00:27:32,609
Stem to stern.
636
00:27:32,651 --> 00:27:33,902
That's what I do.
637
00:27:40,825 --> 00:27:42,202
[cell phone vibrates]
638
00:27:45,830 --> 00:27:47,666
Ira, of course I know
who you are,
639
00:27:47,707 --> 00:27:49,459
but not why you're calling.
640
00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:51,795
Well, how could you know
before you've heard my spiel?
641
00:27:51,836 --> 00:27:54,005
You may be magnificent,
but you're not Carnac.
642
00:27:54,047 --> 00:27:56,007
-Ira?
-I'm calling because
643
00:27:56,049 --> 00:27:57,676
you're looking
for a legal eagle.
644
00:27:57,717 --> 00:27:59,511
One who can be a big blocker
against the government.
645
00:27:59,552 --> 00:28:02,138
Ah, and you're
the Chuck whisperer?
646
00:28:02,180 --> 00:28:04,015
The Chuck neutralizer.
647
00:28:06,017 --> 00:28:07,727
Your friendship
is widely known.
648
00:28:07,769 --> 00:28:09,646
As is attorney/client
privilege.
649
00:28:09,688 --> 00:28:11,189
I'd be sworn to work
on your behalf
650
00:28:11,231 --> 00:28:12,941
and keep everything
confidential.
651
00:28:12,982 --> 00:28:14,901
I guess I shouldn't be surprised
that a man like Rhoades
652
00:28:14,943 --> 00:28:17,153
-has friends ready to--
-I won't hit him personally.
653
00:28:17,195 --> 00:28:20,573
Ever. Even though I know what
an utter hemorrhoid he can be
654
00:28:20,615 --> 00:28:22,742
when you're against him,
I love the guy.
655
00:28:22,784 --> 00:28:24,369
But it's important for me
professionally
656
00:28:24,411 --> 00:28:26,162
to be seen to stand up to him.
657
00:28:26,204 --> 00:28:29,040
And when I do,
I will sit his ass down.
658
00:28:30,792 --> 00:28:32,377
Let's get together
and talk in person.
659
00:28:32,419 --> 00:28:34,045
I'll have Kristy get
with your office to lock in.
660
00:28:34,087 --> 00:28:35,380
Sounds good.
661
00:28:39,551 --> 00:28:41,720
You really got
with the spirit there.
662
00:28:41,761 --> 00:28:43,555
What can I say?
663
00:28:45,014 --> 00:28:47,392
-You can't consider it.
-I consider everything.
664
00:28:47,434 --> 00:28:49,728
It's a setup.
You know it's a setup.
665
00:28:49,769 --> 00:28:52,147
He had to know we'd think that,
and called anyway.
666
00:28:52,188 --> 00:28:54,399
Look, it's moot unless you guys
close tonight,
667
00:28:54,441 --> 00:28:55,817
so let me worry
about the barrister.
668
00:28:55,859 --> 00:28:57,068
You nail your part.
669
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,494
Chuck Rhoades is fucking
with our Wi-Fi play.
670
00:29:06,536 --> 00:29:10,081
Someone is coming
for what's yours, folks.
671
00:29:11,374 --> 00:29:13,001
You're big telecom.
672
00:29:13,042 --> 00:29:14,878
We can't let that happen.
673
00:29:16,838 --> 00:29:18,173
Rhoades has mobilized
big telecom
674
00:29:18,214 --> 00:29:19,758
against People of the World.
675
00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:21,468
They're calling it piggybacking,
signal theft,
676
00:29:21,509 --> 00:29:23,386
antitrust, even though
it's excess signal
677
00:29:23,428 --> 00:29:24,637
that no one's using.
678
00:29:24,679 --> 00:29:25,972
We need PR firms.
Legal. Lobbyists.
679
00:29:26,014 --> 00:29:27,390
We've got to spend
against this move.
680
00:29:27,432 --> 00:29:28,725
Ballpark it for me.
681
00:29:28,767 --> 00:29:30,602
Thirteen and a half million.
682
00:29:37,859 --> 00:29:40,069
Okay, I'll get into it.
683
00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:41,529
Thank you.
684
00:29:52,165 --> 00:29:53,541
The Games in New York City
685
00:29:53,583 --> 00:29:55,627
will be a sports
and a cultural event.
686
00:29:55,668 --> 00:29:57,921
It'll be the only way you can
still see the Gates again.
687
00:29:57,962 --> 00:29:59,589
We've secured the rights
with Jeanne-Claude
688
00:29:59,631 --> 00:30:01,049
and Christo's estate.
689
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:08,890
That is something.
690
00:30:08,932 --> 00:30:10,642
It's not nothing.
691
00:30:12,519 --> 00:30:14,270
Let's move to dinner.
692
00:30:14,312 --> 00:30:16,189
If Jeanne-Claude and Christo
aren't blowing you away,
693
00:30:16,231 --> 00:30:18,316
I imagine Chef Scott
and his team will.
694
00:30:21,194 --> 00:30:22,529
[Colin]
Oh, I know this lot.
695
00:30:22,570 --> 00:30:24,489
This is as interested
as they get
696
00:30:24,531 --> 00:30:26,658
without being
absolutely committed.
697
00:30:26,699 --> 00:30:28,535
[Chef Scott]
Welcome, members.
698
00:30:28,576 --> 00:30:31,037
This is the whole hog.
699
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:33,331
Understand, folks,
that I have slow-cooked
700
00:30:33,373 --> 00:30:36,543
and hand-pulled for you to enjoy
to the fullest.
701
00:30:43,716 --> 00:30:45,301
[applause]
702
00:30:45,343 --> 00:30:46,553
Hear, hear!
703
00:30:46,594 --> 00:30:48,221
[Wags]
Yum!
704
00:30:48,263 --> 00:30:50,181
And there'll be more stops
pulled out after that,
705
00:30:50,223 --> 00:30:51,432
don't you all worry.
706
00:30:51,474 --> 00:30:53,518
Remember, I'm gone after dinner.
707
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,938
Yeah, after we eat, it's off to
Palazzo with our soft targets.
708
00:30:56,980 --> 00:30:59,482
Place is loaded with talent.
Clean talent.
709
00:30:59,524 --> 00:31:01,359
And I mean clean.
710
00:31:01,401 --> 00:31:03,194
Ladies, gentlemen, other.
711
00:31:03,236 --> 00:31:05,488
Everything they'll want.
712
00:31:05,530 --> 00:31:08,032
And all documented,
vaxxed, and virus-free
713
00:31:08,074 --> 00:31:09,325
with antibodies onboard.
714
00:31:09,367 --> 00:31:10,535
Then I'll peel off, too.
715
00:31:10,577 --> 00:31:11,828
What? No, no, no.
716
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:13,538
Gentlemen,
if you both depart,
717
00:31:13,580 --> 00:31:16,207
our friends will become
uncomfortable.
718
00:31:16,249 --> 00:31:17,834
They'll have you
right there with them.
719
00:31:17,876 --> 00:31:20,378
This is what
you're getting paid for.
720
00:31:20,420 --> 00:31:21,880
Yes, but if one of you
doesn't partake,
721
00:31:21,921 --> 00:31:23,214
they'll be looking
for cameras.
722
00:31:23,256 --> 00:31:24,883
They'll imagine it's a setup.
723
00:31:24,924 --> 00:31:27,343
A blackmail play.
It's happened before in Bogotá.
724
00:31:27,385 --> 00:31:28,887
But Bogotá never had the Games.
725
00:31:30,305 --> 00:31:32,056
-Oh.
-Exactly.
726
00:31:32,098 --> 00:31:33,349
Ah.
727
00:31:34,309 --> 00:31:35,935
Well, I've done my part.
728
00:31:35,977 --> 00:31:37,854
So it's on you, Wagsy.
Enjoy.
729
00:31:37,896 --> 00:31:40,398
Now excuse me
while I pander to my audience.
730
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,026
[claps hands]
Who is hangry for some hog?
731
00:31:48,781 --> 00:31:50,033
[car door closes]
732
00:31:50,074 --> 00:31:51,200
-Whoa!
-[gasps]
733
00:31:51,242 --> 00:31:53,286
-[Prince chuckles]
-Whew.
734
00:31:53,328 --> 00:31:55,288
You scared me there...
735
00:31:55,330 --> 00:31:57,415
with your Batmobile.
736
00:31:57,457 --> 00:32:00,001
What brings you up
to the triple digits?
737
00:32:01,294 --> 00:32:04,088
We have to talk.
It's your time, Kate.
738
00:32:04,130 --> 00:32:06,257
America doesn't elect
pessimists,
739
00:32:06,299 --> 00:32:09,510
it elects those that see
the brighter and better future.
740
00:32:09,552 --> 00:32:11,763
The Olympics will do
for this town
741
00:32:11,804 --> 00:32:13,765
what they once did
for Greece.
742
00:32:13,806 --> 00:32:16,100
And they'll do you
some good too.
743
00:32:16,142 --> 00:32:18,353
This isn't America.
It's New York.
744
00:32:18,394 --> 00:32:21,105
And the only thing worse than
a pessimist is a bullshitter.
745
00:32:21,147 --> 00:32:22,607
If I come aboard
and you are wrong,
746
00:32:22,649 --> 00:32:24,067
it'll be the end for me
as a candidate.
747
00:32:24,108 --> 00:32:25,276
I know what I'm doing.
748
00:32:25,318 --> 00:32:27,111
You're smart.
Exceptionally smart.
749
00:32:27,153 --> 00:32:28,947
That's why I want you
on my team.
750
00:32:28,988 --> 00:32:33,284
But be careful not to let
your brilliance get in the way.
751
00:32:33,326 --> 00:32:36,663
Having blind faith in anyone
can be dangerous, even yourself.
752
00:32:36,704 --> 00:32:39,832
Adam Grant talks about this
in Think Again.
753
00:32:39,874 --> 00:32:42,001
The best predictors
of the future aren't smarter.
754
00:32:42,043 --> 00:32:44,837
They're just willing
to take one more look,
755
00:32:44,879 --> 00:32:47,632
one more time,
than the other folks.
756
00:32:47,674 --> 00:32:51,302
That's good advice.
But, uh, I'm aware.
757
00:32:51,344 --> 00:32:52,971
If your mother asks
how many eggs you want,
758
00:32:53,012 --> 00:32:54,305
and you say one,
but she makes two
759
00:32:54,347 --> 00:32:55,807
and you eat both,
760
00:32:55,848 --> 00:32:57,308
who's better at math,
you or your mother?
761
00:32:57,350 --> 00:32:59,310
Excuse me?
762
00:32:59,352 --> 00:33:01,062
What my old man used to say
763
00:33:01,104 --> 00:33:02,939
when I'd worked myself
into a knot over something.
764
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:04,315
Doesn't matter how good
your gut is,
765
00:33:04,357 --> 00:33:06,275
don't double down
on old instincts
766
00:33:06,317 --> 00:33:08,236
when presented
with new insight.
767
00:33:08,277 --> 00:33:11,990
Marc Andreessen calls it having
strong opinions, weakly held.
768
00:33:12,031 --> 00:33:14,283
Always being ready to change
to the better idea.
769
00:33:14,325 --> 00:33:15,743
-Bingo.
-Yeah, but I don't see how
770
00:33:15,785 --> 00:33:17,495
leaving to work for you,
771
00:33:17,537 --> 00:33:19,789
trashing the reputation
I've built in the public sector,
772
00:33:19,831 --> 00:33:21,499
turning my back on my mentor--
773
00:33:21,541 --> 00:33:24,085
A mentor shouldn't get
in the way of your success.
774
00:33:24,127 --> 00:33:27,296
Unlike Chuck, I want
to invest in your future.
775
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:28,840
Entwine it with my own.
776
00:33:28,881 --> 00:33:31,134
The last thing I need
is another father figure
777
00:33:31,175 --> 00:33:33,219
with ideas about my future.
778
00:33:33,261 --> 00:33:35,972
Here's where I'm different
from those you've come across.
779
00:33:36,014 --> 00:33:38,850
I don't want to be the one
giving advice all the time.
780
00:33:38,891 --> 00:33:40,977
I want to take your advice.
781
00:33:41,019 --> 00:33:42,520
I need it.
782
00:33:42,562 --> 00:33:44,522
I'm not your father.
I want to be your peer.
783
00:33:44,564 --> 00:33:46,149
Watch you score.
784
00:33:46,190 --> 00:33:48,026
Bask in your glow.
785
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:50,903
That's a new wrinkle.
786
00:33:50,945 --> 00:33:52,238
Still--
787
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:53,990
You see yourself
as a civil servant.
788
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:55,700
I get it.
789
00:33:55,742 --> 00:33:57,910
I, too, believe in service.
790
00:33:57,952 --> 00:34:00,079
The thing you've got
to ask yourself is,
791
00:34:00,121 --> 00:34:02,874
am I still serving best
where I am?
792
00:34:03,958 --> 00:34:05,877
Or is there something better?
793
00:34:07,086 --> 00:34:10,298
Once you complete
the job for me,
794
00:34:10,339 --> 00:34:12,425
that'll be your campaign office.
795
00:34:15,344 --> 00:34:16,721
I see.
796
00:34:16,763 --> 00:34:18,848
Twenty-four hours
after you declare,
797
00:34:18,890 --> 00:34:20,892
your field staff--
already hired--
798
00:34:20,933 --> 00:34:23,728
will collect and submit
all the signatures you need
799
00:34:23,770 --> 00:34:25,063
before the filing deadline...
800
00:34:26,606 --> 00:34:29,358
leaving you free to chase
the real cheesecake.
801
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,070
You sure you know
what you're buying?
802
00:34:32,111 --> 00:34:34,238
You think I'm concerned because
you brought my Wi-Fi play
803
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,740
back to Chuck?
804
00:34:35,782 --> 00:34:38,868
Yes, it did screw me up
for a minute.
805
00:34:38,910 --> 00:34:42,246
But I'd have been disappointed
if you hadn't.
806
00:34:42,288 --> 00:34:43,539
I love that you're loyal.
807
00:34:43,581 --> 00:34:44,957
You did right by your boss
808
00:34:44,999 --> 00:34:46,417
despite the potential cost
to yourself.
809
00:34:46,459 --> 00:34:48,252
That's what matters.
810
00:34:48,294 --> 00:34:51,672
It's how I know that you'll
serve me loyally as well.
811
00:34:53,091 --> 00:34:55,468
Until I help get you
elected to Congress.
812
00:35:02,892 --> 00:35:05,645
[Scooter] Gentle-folk,
it's been a pleasure.
813
00:35:05,686 --> 00:35:08,523
I look forward
to doing it again in 2028.
814
00:35:08,564 --> 00:35:11,234
I wish you good night
and bid you adieu.
815
00:35:11,275 --> 00:35:12,568
-Cheers.
-Thanks very much.
816
00:35:14,612 --> 00:35:16,864
Fellows, exciting offer.
817
00:35:16,906 --> 00:35:18,449
It seems our friends
in New Jersey
818
00:35:18,491 --> 00:35:20,868
have arranged
an impromptu private concert.
819
00:35:20,910 --> 00:35:23,621
The Boss and Bon Jovi
at the Stone Pony.
820
00:35:25,331 --> 00:35:26,958
Choppers are waiting.
821
00:35:26,999 --> 00:35:28,501
What the fuck?
822
00:35:30,002 --> 00:35:32,130
Colin, you said Jersey
was on the sideline.
823
00:35:32,171 --> 00:35:33,714
How did you let them
into the game?
824
00:35:33,756 --> 00:35:35,216
I didn't let them anywhere,
I assure you.
825
00:35:35,258 --> 00:35:37,468
This is coming from outside.
826
00:35:37,510 --> 00:35:39,387
A concerted attack.
Could this be Rhoades?
827
00:35:39,428 --> 00:35:40,805
Feels like him.
828
00:35:40,847 --> 00:35:42,431
That's it then, I guess.
829
00:35:42,473 --> 00:35:44,433
"It" nothing. It's right
there for you to finish.
830
00:35:44,475 --> 00:35:46,811
Well, sure, like a diamond ring
in a cesspool.
831
00:35:46,853 --> 00:35:48,437
I just have to dive in,
swim around,
832
00:35:48,479 --> 00:35:50,106
find it and clean it off.
833
00:35:50,148 --> 00:35:51,816
However you want to say it.
Ride the damn tiger.
834
00:35:51,858 --> 00:35:53,526
Go with them,
get them back to the city,
835
00:35:53,568 --> 00:35:55,153
and give them an experience
836
00:35:55,194 --> 00:35:57,029
that knocks the taste
of American rock and roll
837
00:35:57,071 --> 00:35:59,532
-right out of their mouths.
-My guns, they can't be empty.
838
00:35:59,574 --> 00:36:01,617
Maybe you'll have
a stray bullet left.
839
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:11,335
[Wags] "Wrecking Ball,"
into "Blaze of Glory..."
840
00:36:11,377 --> 00:36:15,756
with a twin acoustic guitar
finisher of "Rosalita,"
841
00:36:15,798 --> 00:36:17,550
in a tiny private club.
842
00:36:17,592 --> 00:36:19,010
"Rosalita," damn.
843
00:36:19,051 --> 00:36:20,469
Really incredible.
844
00:36:20,511 --> 00:36:21,804
I mean, what can you
hope to do
845
00:36:21,846 --> 00:36:23,347
when the other side
has freaking Bruce?
846
00:36:23,389 --> 00:36:26,350
-And Bon Jovi.
-And Bon Jovi.
847
00:36:26,392 --> 00:36:28,352
It's all the more impressive
you got it done.
848
00:36:28,394 --> 00:36:29,604
It really is.
849
00:36:29,645 --> 00:36:30,980
I mean,
congratulations, Scooter.
850
00:36:31,022 --> 00:36:32,523
You saw the play.
851
00:36:32,565 --> 00:36:33,983
[Scooter] I knew I had
the man for the job.
852
00:36:34,025 --> 00:36:35,985
But he was balking,
and you got it out of him.
853
00:36:36,027 --> 00:36:38,196
Really, unbelievably done.
854
00:36:38,237 --> 00:36:42,366
"Him" is me, right?
855
00:36:42,408 --> 00:36:44,535
He manipulated me and you're
congratulating him for it?
856
00:36:44,577 --> 00:36:47,788
Absolutely. Always give props
to the guy who made the assist.
857
00:36:47,830 --> 00:36:49,624
The guy who scored
already knows what he did.
858
00:36:49,665 --> 00:36:51,834
I need a slap on the ass
when I score.
859
00:36:51,876 --> 00:36:53,085
That's how I'm wired.
860
00:36:53,127 --> 00:36:55,546
Good job, Wags!
Feel better?
861
00:36:55,588 --> 00:36:57,006
Yeah.
862
00:36:57,048 --> 00:36:58,299
[Scooter] How'd you
get it done, Wags?
863
00:36:58,341 --> 00:37:01,219
Considering your other agenda?
864
00:37:02,637 --> 00:37:04,555
[indistinct chattering]
865
00:37:16,817 --> 00:37:18,236
[woman moaning]
866
00:37:20,029 --> 00:37:23,699
[woman]
Ahh! Wags!
867
00:37:23,741 --> 00:37:25,701
[moaning loudly]
868
00:37:38,297 --> 00:37:40,424
[Wags] I'd heard of these guys
who go behind closed doors
869
00:37:40,466 --> 00:37:42,009
and only talked.
870
00:37:42,051 --> 00:37:43,928
I always imagined
they were pathetic losers
871
00:37:43,970 --> 00:37:46,931
of the most desperate stripe
872
00:37:46,973 --> 00:37:49,350
looking for connection.
873
00:37:49,392 --> 00:37:51,394
But I guess they had
their reasons.
874
00:37:51,435 --> 00:37:52,895
Like I did.
875
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:54,689
[screaming seductively]
876
00:37:54,730 --> 00:37:56,440
[cell phone ringer
plays "Lullaby"]
877
00:37:56,482 --> 00:37:58,401
Uh-oh, that's my cue.
878
00:37:59,860 --> 00:38:01,237
Give it another
five or six minutes,
879
00:38:01,279 --> 00:38:02,947
then finish it off big.
880
00:38:03,948 --> 00:38:05,283
You're a dear.
881
00:38:05,324 --> 00:38:06,450
Good luck with your
dissertation.
882
00:38:06,492 --> 00:38:08,786
[laughs and moans loudly]
883
00:38:13,165 --> 00:38:16,043
The truth is,
we actually had a lovely chat
884
00:38:16,085 --> 00:38:17,837
before we got down
to putting on the show.
885
00:38:17,878 --> 00:38:19,505
Well, Colin said you guys
killed it.
886
00:38:19,547 --> 00:38:21,632
Figured out exactly
which ones could be moved.
887
00:38:21,674 --> 00:38:24,468
Bid round's looking as good
as it possibly can.
888
00:38:27,013 --> 00:38:30,016
Oh, thanks for warning me
about Ira Schirmer.
889
00:38:30,057 --> 00:38:32,143
I do know you were trying
to protect me.
890
00:38:32,184 --> 00:38:35,646
Nah. You were playing him from
jump, to get Rhoades leaning.
891
00:38:35,688 --> 00:38:36,981
Couldn't believe
I didn't see it.
892
00:38:37,023 --> 00:38:38,232
Won't miss it next time, sir.
893
00:38:39,859 --> 00:38:41,152
I believe you.
894
00:38:44,864 --> 00:38:46,574
Miss Sacker's
already sat with him,
895
00:38:46,615 --> 00:38:48,492
so she can finish
getting you prepped.
896
00:38:50,536 --> 00:38:52,288
Huh.
897
00:38:52,330 --> 00:38:53,664
Oh, no.
898
00:38:53,706 --> 00:38:55,416
[cell phone vibrates]
899
00:38:55,458 --> 00:38:57,335
Uh-oh.
900
00:38:57,376 --> 00:38:58,836
My meeting just got canceled.
901
00:38:58,878 --> 00:39:00,129
Son of a bitch.
902
00:39:01,714 --> 00:39:03,841
They played the Albin on me.
903
00:39:05,301 --> 00:39:06,802
-Chuck?
-[scoffs]
904
00:39:08,304 --> 00:39:11,974
I fancied myself
some chess grandmaster
905
00:39:12,016 --> 00:39:14,060
and brought my big piece
out early.
906
00:39:15,644 --> 00:39:17,938
Albin's a hyperaggressive
counter.
907
00:39:17,980 --> 00:39:19,523
I lost my advantage...
908
00:39:22,151 --> 00:39:24,737
and failed to protect
my goddamn queen.
909
00:39:26,238 --> 00:39:27,490
[sighs]
910
00:39:45,549 --> 00:39:48,469
Welcome to Michael Prince
Capital, Kate.
911
00:39:48,511 --> 00:39:49,970
Thanks.
912
00:39:51,389 --> 00:39:53,891
So, where do I work?
913
00:39:53,933 --> 00:39:55,393
Wherever you want.
914
00:39:55,434 --> 00:39:56,894
[Scooter]
Welcome, Miss Sacker.
915
00:39:56,936 --> 00:39:59,397
Allow me to show you
the place.
916
00:39:59,438 --> 00:40:00,731
Hmm.
917
00:40:06,028 --> 00:40:07,238
The Olympics.
918
00:40:08,614 --> 00:40:10,741
That's what I get
for doing this.
919
00:40:10,783 --> 00:40:13,869
You want to be on
the performance coaching team.
920
00:40:13,911 --> 00:40:15,746
To run it.
921
00:40:15,788 --> 00:40:18,416
Use my talents to turn those
athletes into medal machines.
922
00:40:18,457 --> 00:40:22,586
Their goal, my goal,
the country's goal: aligned.
923
00:40:22,628 --> 00:40:25,756
So that my heart and soul
are engaged in all of it.
924
00:40:25,798 --> 00:40:27,633
Done.
925
00:40:27,675 --> 00:40:29,593
It's not that you weren't
transactional.
926
00:40:29,635 --> 00:40:31,804
It's that you're
very good at it.
927
00:40:31,846 --> 00:40:33,514
And for the right reasons...
928
00:40:34,807 --> 00:40:36,267
which pleases me.
929
00:40:47,236 --> 00:40:49,280
I can see you aren't happy.
930
00:40:49,321 --> 00:40:52,366
I imagine this is visible on
my face and in my demeanor, yes.
931
00:40:52,408 --> 00:40:54,118
And how could it not be so?
932
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,828
You made a deal that you knew
would displease me.
933
00:40:55,870 --> 00:40:57,288
Once the telecom companies
934
00:40:57,329 --> 00:40:58,956
figured out what we were
trying to do,
935
00:40:58,998 --> 00:41:00,875
the only move was
to make a deal with them,
936
00:41:00,916 --> 00:41:02,793
include them,
let them be a part of it.
937
00:41:02,835 --> 00:41:04,712
So they get the pop for
agreeing to provide free Wi-Fi
938
00:41:04,753 --> 00:41:05,963
for the fortnight of the Games.
939
00:41:06,005 --> 00:41:07,465
Made the most sense.
940
00:41:07,506 --> 00:41:08,966
The city gets nothing
leading up to that.
941
00:41:09,008 --> 00:41:10,301
Just two lousy weeks.
942
00:41:13,471 --> 00:41:15,556
And the Africa initiative,
that just dies?
943
00:41:15,598 --> 00:41:17,766
This deal doesn't contemplate
an Africa piece.
944
00:41:17,808 --> 00:41:19,935
But that was the whole reason
I brought the idea to you.
945
00:41:19,977 --> 00:41:21,645
-Ideas change.
-Or die.
946
00:41:21,687 --> 00:41:23,439
It's back-burnered,
not dead.
947
00:41:23,481 --> 00:41:25,149
We were...
948
00:41:25,191 --> 00:41:27,485
I thought we could--
and I know this sounds corny--
949
00:41:27,526 --> 00:41:28,694
but it's the thing, right,
950
00:41:28,736 --> 00:41:30,321
that we are put
in a position to do,
951
00:41:30,362 --> 00:41:31,822
and that's to change,
to actually change the world,
952
00:41:31,864 --> 00:41:33,449
which is what
this would have done.
953
00:41:33,491 --> 00:41:34,992
What I would have done.
And now they get what?
954
00:41:35,034 --> 00:41:36,702
The consolation prize:
a free tote bag?
955
00:41:36,744 --> 00:41:38,662
People love free tote bags.
956
00:41:38,704 --> 00:41:40,956
Especially when they don't know
what they could have gotten.
957
00:41:40,998 --> 00:41:42,833
But, come on,
what did you think
958
00:41:42,875 --> 00:41:45,503
your plan was really going
to accomplish long term?
959
00:41:45,544 --> 00:41:47,463
-What was going to change?
-You know the answer.
960
00:41:47,505 --> 00:41:49,173
With Wi-Fi they could
connect to the--
961
00:41:49,215 --> 00:41:50,841
I don't have to spell it out
for you.
962
00:41:50,883 --> 00:41:52,134
You know the answer.
963
00:41:53,219 --> 00:41:54,845
I do.
964
00:41:54,887 --> 00:41:57,431
You know, I've lived through
versions of this before.
965
00:41:57,473 --> 00:41:59,183
More than that,
Africa has.
966
00:41:59,225 --> 00:42:00,684
There was a great initiative,
967
00:42:00,726 --> 00:42:02,269
with great goodwill
and good intentions,
968
00:42:02,311 --> 00:42:04,438
to build wells
in different places.
969
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,608
Burkina Faso, Ghana, Mali.
More.
970
00:42:07,650 --> 00:42:09,443
Ones that really needed it.
971
00:42:09,485 --> 00:42:10,694
Only once the wells were built,
972
00:42:10,736 --> 00:42:12,154
there was no money
to maintain them.
973
00:42:12,196 --> 00:42:13,781
So when they broke
and fell into disrepair,
974
00:42:13,822 --> 00:42:15,324
no one knew
how to fix them.
975
00:42:15,366 --> 00:42:17,618
The people also
became reliant on them.
976
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:19,203
So instead of
making things better,
977
00:42:19,245 --> 00:42:20,871
the people ended up
worse off.
978
00:42:20,913 --> 00:42:22,790
This would be like that.
979
00:42:22,831 --> 00:42:24,875
You'd get them dependent
on the connectivity,
980
00:42:24,917 --> 00:42:27,878
and then, when it disappeared,
they'd be lost.
981
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,089
Sure, it's easy to take
that position now.
982
00:42:30,130 --> 00:42:31,882
Nothing easy about it.
983
00:42:31,924 --> 00:42:34,426
But I pick and choose my shots
to make things better,
984
00:42:34,468 --> 00:42:37,221
so that when I do it,
it works.
985
00:42:37,263 --> 00:42:39,682
It holds. It sticks.
986
00:42:39,723 --> 00:42:43,435
That's what I'm going to do too,
soon enough, full-fucking-time.
987
00:42:44,436 --> 00:42:46,021
You have a number.
988
00:42:46,063 --> 00:42:47,940
I do.
989
00:42:48,941 --> 00:42:50,192
Hundred.
990
00:42:51,151 --> 00:42:52,903
Gotta be a hundred mil.
991
00:42:52,945 --> 00:42:54,405
That's the nine-digit
combination
992
00:42:54,446 --> 00:42:56,532
that opens the lock
to the escape hatch.
993
00:42:56,574 --> 00:42:58,284
It is.
994
00:42:58,325 --> 00:42:59,493
You must be
within striking distance
995
00:42:59,535 --> 00:43:00,828
of that number, too,
by now.
996
00:43:00,869 --> 00:43:02,413
I am. Getting there.
997
00:43:02,454 --> 00:43:03,872
The problem is
the number shifts
998
00:43:03,914 --> 00:43:05,666
when you see what it can
and can't do.
999
00:43:06,959 --> 00:43:08,419
I'm at over 10 billion.
1000
00:43:08,460 --> 00:43:09,753
I'm a philanthropist,
like you,
1001
00:43:09,795 --> 00:43:11,922
yet I haven't left.
1002
00:43:11,964 --> 00:43:13,716
Your eyes are always bigger
than your stomach,
1003
00:43:13,757 --> 00:43:15,259
and at your level,
they should be.
1004
00:43:15,301 --> 00:43:17,011
-Why is that?
-If this had been my cause,
1005
00:43:17,052 --> 00:43:19,597
those struggling folks
would be getting their Wi-Fi,
1006
00:43:19,638 --> 00:43:21,098
regardless of the business end,
1007
00:43:21,140 --> 00:43:22,600
with the money baked in
to keep it going.
1008
00:43:22,641 --> 00:43:25,060
Infrastructure,
technicians on payroll
1009
00:43:25,102 --> 00:43:26,729
to keep it reliable,
sustainable,
1010
00:43:26,770 --> 00:43:28,772
so the well would never
run dry.
1011
00:43:28,814 --> 00:43:31,942
Because even at a 150 mil a year
personal OPEX,
1012
00:43:31,984 --> 00:43:34,111
I can afford it,
you can't.
1013
00:43:34,153 --> 00:43:36,488
So you're trying to turn this
into an object lesson on scale.
1014
00:43:36,530 --> 00:43:39,158
Not trying to do anything.
That's what it is.
1015
00:43:39,199 --> 00:43:42,286
I'm independently wealthy.
You're not.
1016
00:43:42,328 --> 00:43:46,123
You're kind of rich,
which is great.
1017
00:43:46,165 --> 00:43:47,458
But if you want
to change the world,
1018
00:43:47,499 --> 00:43:49,084
nine digits ain't gonna do it.
1019
00:43:52,171 --> 00:43:54,590
I can see that you are right
that my number was faulty.
1020
00:43:54,632 --> 00:43:56,842
I have a new one now.
1021
00:43:58,927 --> 00:44:00,804
A billion.

00:45:30,352 --> 00:45:32,146
How could you, Kate?
1042
00:45:34,273 --> 00:45:36,734
It'd one thing
if you had ditched before.
1043
00:45:36,775 --> 00:45:39,111
But now,
when I'm doing it right?
1044
00:45:40,571 --> 00:45:42,740
All the ways.
And winning.
1045
00:45:44,658 --> 00:45:46,785
For us and the folks.
1046
00:45:46,827 --> 00:45:48,120
Finally.
1047
00:45:49,913 --> 00:45:53,417
I'd think you would know
that this is the moment to stay,
1048
00:45:53,459 --> 00:45:54,918
not leave.
1049
00:45:55,919 --> 00:45:57,880
But after all I taught you...
1050
00:45:57,921 --> 00:45:59,381
Oh, you did.
1051
00:45:59,423 --> 00:46:01,049
You taught me.
1052
00:46:01,091 --> 00:46:04,052
It's maybe how I knew
to make the decision I made.
1053
00:46:06,430 --> 00:46:09,391
Maybe I'm ready
to do some teaching, too.
1054
00:46:09,433 --> 00:46:12,436
To be a peer,
not just an acolyte.
1055
00:46:12,478 --> 00:46:14,146
We could do that.
1056
00:46:14,188 --> 00:46:16,356
No, we can do that.
1057
00:46:16,398 --> 00:46:17,608
No.
1058
00:46:17,649 --> 00:46:19,735
No, you made me wait.
1059
00:46:19,777 --> 00:46:21,820
Then you put me in play.
1060
00:46:23,781 --> 00:46:25,949
Some would ask, how could I
have waited so long?
1061
00:46:25,991 --> 00:46:28,118
And what would you
say to them?
1062
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,704
That I felt I still
had more to learn.
1063
00:46:32,164 --> 00:46:35,167
And I had
the best professor.
1064
00:46:36,168 --> 00:46:37,377
What if that professor
1065
00:46:37,419 --> 00:46:39,087
isn't done teaching yet?
1066
00:46:39,129 --> 00:46:41,089
Then he'd better find
someone who's still in need
1067
00:46:41,131 --> 00:46:43,801
of those particular lessons...
1068
00:46:43,842 --> 00:46:47,304
because this student
has already left the campus.
1069
00:46:51,183 --> 00:46:52,684
High blood drumming
On your skin
1070
00:46:52,726 --> 00:46:55,145
It's so tight
1071
00:46:55,187 --> 00:46:57,981
You feel my heat
I'm just a moment behind
1072
00:46:58,023 --> 00:46:59,858
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do
1073
00:46:59,900 --> 00:47:03,821
Do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
1074
00:47:06,532 --> 00:47:08,575
In touch with the ground
1075
00:47:08,617 --> 00:47:12,287
I'm on the hunt
I'm after you
1076
00:47:12,329 --> 00:47:14,206
A scent and a sound
1077
00:47:14,248 --> 00:47:16,041
I'm lost and I'm found
1078
00:47:16,083 --> 00:47:20,045
And I'm hungry
Like the wolf
1079
00:47:20,087 --> 00:47:21,797
Strut on a line
1080
00:47:21,839 --> 00:47:23,799
It's discord and rhyme
1081
00:47:23,841 --> 00:47:27,302
I howl and I whine
I'm after you
1082
00:47:27,344 --> 00:47:31,139
Mouth is alive
All running inside
1083
00:47:31,181 --> 00:47:35,727
And I'm hungry
Like the wolf
1084
00:47:40,357 --> 00:47:41,233
[heavy breathing]
