Ain't ratting or being ratted on.
179
00:08:56,626 --> 00:08:58,078
I'm not really interested in being
180
00:08:58,079 --> 00:08:59,622
the Big Pussy of this place.
181
00:08:59,956 --> 00:09:02,082
Never ends well for the Big Pussy.
182
00:09:02,083 --> 00:09:04,306
Dollar Bill never said
nothing like that about you.
183
00:09:04,307 --> 00:09:08,018
No one's getting capped because
of something someone said.
184
00:09:08,019 --> 00:09:10,530
As Ness said to the Chi-Town cops,
185
00:09:10,633 --> 00:09:13,191
"What you've done before
today is not my concern.
186
00:09:13,233 --> 00:09:15,121
But now we must be pure."
187
00:09:15,955 --> 00:09:17,748
I'm getting my arms around this place,
188
00:09:17,749 --> 00:09:20,684
so this is your chance
to shape that bundle
189
00:09:20,685 --> 00:09:23,338
that's gonna be in those arms.
So, let's begin.
190
00:09:28,947 --> 00:09:31,033
Everyone knew to be here for this.
191
00:09:31,058 --> 00:09:33,098
I'm here. With bells on.
192
00:09:33,528 --> 00:09:34,736
Set my alarm and everything.
193
00:09:34,737 --> 00:09:36,450
[RIAN] Taylor comes
and goes as they wish.
194
00:09:36,451 --> 00:09:37,826
Wherever they are in the world,
195
00:09:37,827 --> 00:09:39,078
they produce results.
196
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,889
Kind of like how Dwayne "The Rock"
197
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:42,623
can show up late to a film shoot
198
00:09:42,624 --> 00:09:44,917
because his movies always do,
like, a billion dollars.
199
00:09:44,918 --> 00:09:46,418
Guys like Winston
200
00:09:46,419 --> 00:09:47,812
need to spitshine their shoes
201
00:09:47,837 --> 00:09:49,739
and stand at attention to get noticed.
202
00:09:50,048 --> 00:09:50,965
I like your loyalty.
203
00:09:50,966 --> 00:09:52,716
And agree, Winston showing out like this
204
00:09:52,717 --> 00:09:54,903
is what the Navy SEALs
would call "butt snorkeling."
205
00:09:54,928 --> 00:09:57,095
But when I announce
an all-hands, I need...
206
00:09:57,096 --> 00:09:58,331
I know what you need.
207
00:09:58,665 --> 00:10:01,266
Or what you claim to need.
Bracing honesty.
208
00:10:01,267 --> 00:10:03,060
But when people say that,
what they really want is
209
00:10:03,061 --> 00:10:06,047
someone to tousle their hair
and tell them, "good boy."
210
00:10:09,768 --> 00:10:13,529
I have neither the hair
nor the need for approval.
211
00:10:13,530 --> 00:10:15,781
Besides, I'm asking about what was,
212
00:10:15,782 --> 00:10:17,658
what should be, not what is.
213
00:10:17,659 --> 00:10:19,010
Not your judgment of me.
214
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:21,221
You are the very thing I am judging.
215
00:10:21,246 --> 00:10:24,040
My judgment of you crowds all
other discernment I might have.
216
00:10:24,097 --> 00:10:25,932
I'm gonna work hard
to shift that judgment.
217
00:10:25,959 --> 00:10:27,209
That's on me now.
218
00:10:27,210 --> 00:10:28,670
I don't think that can happen.
219
00:10:28,711 --> 00:10:30,588
Just tell me what you
need to succeed here.
220
00:10:30,622 --> 00:10:32,172
A boss I can trust and work with.
221
00:10:32,173 --> 00:10:33,257
I'm not Axe.
222
00:10:33,258 --> 00:10:34,466
You're sitting in the same office.
223
00:10:34,467 --> 00:10:35,677
You own what was once his.
224
00:10:35,725 --> 00:10:38,152
For different reasons.
I need faster returns
225
00:10:38,177 --> 00:10:40,845
and greater liquidity than
private equity provides.
226
00:10:40,846 --> 00:10:44,669
To that end, I want to make
you Chief Investment Officer.
227
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,217
How's that for trust?
228
00:10:46,453 --> 00:10:48,730
Yeah, that means you trust me
229
00:10:48,731 --> 00:10:51,149
and want to use me to win
over the investors' trust.
230
00:10:51,150 --> 00:10:52,669
But I won't take that position.
231
00:10:52,694 --> 00:10:55,697
Last time I was CIO,
all my moves were wiped off the board.
232
00:10:55,739 --> 00:10:57,282
Like I said, I'm different.
233
00:10:57,323 --> 00:10:58,742
And I'm willing to put
the time and effort in
234
00:10:58,783 --> 00:11:00,326
to prove that to you...
235
00:11:00,368 --> 00:11:01,995
to everyone here.
236
00:11:02,036 --> 00:11:02,954
You bought me up.
237
00:11:02,955 --> 00:11:04,830
You're kind of forcing me to stay here.
238
00:11:04,831 --> 00:11:06,524
Doesn't feel different.
239
00:11:16,177 --> 00:11:18,805
[CANNONS FIRING]
240
00:11:28,229 --> 00:11:29,689
[CHUCK] Hello, neighbor.
241
00:11:29,731 --> 00:11:31,565
- Good day, sir.
- Good day to you.
242
00:11:31,566 --> 00:11:33,400
Boy, this is...
243
00:11:33,401 --> 00:11:35,612
some magnificent spread.
244
00:11:36,327 --> 00:11:38,276
Something that's been
in the family for...
245
00:11:38,448 --> 00:11:41,075
Well, it was in the family years ago.
246
00:11:41,117 --> 00:11:42,844
And now, once again.
247
00:11:42,869 --> 00:11:45,496
My great-great-great -great-grandfather
248
00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:47,832
- built those stone fences...
- Ah.
249
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:49,000
...and hid behind them,
250
00:11:49,042 --> 00:11:51,377
firing his musket at the Redcoats.
251
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:53,588
Hmm. [CHUCKLES]
252
00:11:54,041 --> 00:11:55,125
Yeah.
253
00:11:55,363 --> 00:11:57,907
You'd think a place this grand,
254
00:11:58,144 --> 00:11:59,771
it would suck up the sound.
255
00:11:59,796 --> 00:12:02,346
But it's a funny thing
about gunpowder and sky,
256
00:12:02,347 --> 00:12:04,598
one offers little
resistance to the other.
257
00:12:04,599 --> 00:12:06,141
That's the thing about a cannon,
258
00:12:06,142 --> 00:12:08,226
nothing much offers it resistance.
259
00:12:08,227 --> 00:12:09,145
[LAUGHS]
260
00:12:09,146 --> 00:12:12,357
That's why I have such
regard for their power.
261
00:12:13,858 --> 00:12:16,401
Well, that's why I'm here.
262
00:12:16,402 --> 00:12:17,486
The artillery.
263
00:12:17,528 --> 00:12:20,113
For one thing, uh, we share a stream,
264
00:12:20,114 --> 00:12:22,074
that I irrigate my fields with,
265
00:12:22,116 --> 00:12:24,451
and when it comes to
black powder residue
266
00:12:24,452 --> 00:12:26,187
and leaching metals...
267
00:12:26,287 --> 00:12:28,606
- I'm downstream of you.
- Mm-hmm.
268
00:12:29,042 --> 00:12:30,960
- So you are.
- Hmm-hmm.
269
00:12:31,002 --> 00:12:32,710
Then there's the noise.
270
00:12:33,213 --> 00:12:35,840
It's really jarring and unsettling.
271
00:12:35,882 --> 00:12:38,566
And I'm not a dairy outfit,
272
00:12:38,591 --> 00:12:41,134
but I do have a milk cow,
and she's sensitive.
273
00:12:41,135 --> 00:12:44,262
She won't give milk with all
the bombs bursting in air.
274
00:12:44,263 --> 00:12:46,765
Well, I'm sorry to hear your
Guernsey's teats are swoll...
275
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,643
- She's a Holstein.
- That's...
276
00:12:50,285 --> 00:12:53,314
[SIGHS] A smart man once said,
277
00:12:53,746 --> 00:12:56,248
"Nothing external affects how you feel.
278
00:12:56,249 --> 00:12:58,793
You control how you feel."
279
00:12:59,335 --> 00:13:00,420
So I say this,
280
00:13:00,461 --> 00:13:02,462
"When you hear the sound of the cannon,
281
00:13:02,463 --> 00:13:04,047
why don't you hear what I do?"
282
00:13:04,048 --> 00:13:05,702
The sound of liberty,
283
00:13:05,967 --> 00:13:07,645
of triumph.
284
00:13:08,136 --> 00:13:09,303
Of America!
285
00:13:09,304 --> 00:13:11,356
You can make yourself
process it that way.
286
00:13:11,357 --> 00:13:13,042
Hmm.
287
00:13:13,391 --> 00:13:16,269
Seems like an awful lot of work.
288
00:13:16,311 --> 00:13:18,396
[SIGHS] Work...
289
00:13:18,798 --> 00:13:20,883
is how I made the fortune
290
00:13:20,925 --> 00:13:23,678
that's allowed me to
possess this place anew.
291
00:13:23,719 --> 00:13:25,321
Work is what men like me...
292
00:13:25,346 --> 00:13:27,931
and, I assume, you, are made of.
293
00:13:27,932 --> 00:13:31,685
Sure. No, I'm familiar with
the bromides of the self-made.
294
00:13:31,686 --> 00:13:33,755
The work-is-the-tonic types.
295
00:13:34,547 --> 00:13:36,940
Perhaps you could do me the courtesy
296
00:13:36,941 --> 00:13:39,093
of just limiting the
number of times a week.
297
00:13:39,427 --> 00:13:41,054
It's strictly limited.
298
00:13:41,429 --> 00:13:43,056
Morning and nightfall.
299
00:13:43,556 --> 00:13:45,933
- I'm a constitutional scholar...
- Ah.
300
00:13:45,996 --> 00:13:47,492
Not as a vocation, like you,
301
00:13:47,493 --> 00:13:48,744
but as an avocation.
302
00:13:48,937 --> 00:13:51,439
And the amendments to
that vaunted document...
303
00:13:51,481 --> 00:13:52,983
[CHUCKLES] Oh, I'm ahead of you.
304
00:13:53,316 --> 00:13:56,319
Yes, I know which amendment
you're so keen on.
305
00:13:58,154 --> 00:13:59,447
Well, thanks for the visit.
306
00:13:59,488 --> 00:14:02,650
Mind Mr. Frost's words
about good fences.
307
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:04,468
Ah, the neighbors worked together
308
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:06,011
in Robert Frost's "Mending Wall."
309
00:14:06,012 --> 00:14:07,680
The point is wholly...
310
00:14:07,722 --> 00:14:09,264
Whatever.
311
00:14:09,265 --> 00:14:10,474
[CHUCKLES]
312
00:14:10,516 --> 00:14:12,184
I didn't come looking for a war.
313
00:14:12,602 --> 00:14:14,561
Well I, on the other hand,
have always regretted
314
00:14:14,562 --> 00:14:16,547
I didn't get a chance to fight in mine.
315
00:14:16,923 --> 00:14:18,424
[SCOFFS]
316
00:14:35,458 --> 00:14:37,585
Former culture wasn't a problem for me.
317
00:14:37,627 --> 00:14:40,170
New one won't be either.
I'm not like these weak-knees.
318
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:42,130
You're not talking about me, are you?
319
00:14:42,131 --> 00:14:43,715
I hope you don't think
my knees are weak, they're...
320
00:14:43,716 --> 00:14:45,801
Well, he's not fucking
talking about me, dude.
321
00:14:45,843 --> 00:14:47,552
[PRINCE] Let's start with this.
322
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:50,014
There's no shame in being sensitive.
323
00:14:50,043 --> 00:14:51,323
You need to be.
324
00:14:51,348 --> 00:14:53,451
One of the secrets to
being a great investor
325
00:14:53,476 --> 00:14:55,770
is recognizing the impulses
that might lead you
326
00:14:55,812 --> 00:14:57,630
to make decisions based on emotion.
327
00:14:58,131 --> 00:15:00,124
If you're not training
yourself to recognize those,
328
00:15:00,149 --> 00:15:02,025
your subconscious will
just be directed by them.
329
00:15:02,026 --> 00:15:02,902
Thank you!
330
00:15:02,903 --> 00:15:05,304
Now you won't have to go the bathroom
when you want to cry, Tuk.
331
00:15:05,346 --> 00:15:07,215
Once! One time and...
332
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,425
What was encouraged was more of a
333
00:15:09,450 --> 00:15:11,618
"Stick your emotions
where your conscience is,
334
00:15:11,619 --> 00:15:14,162
"and then tie
'em off like a gangrenous leg
335
00:15:14,163 --> 00:15:16,374
"until they wither and die.
336
00:15:16,415 --> 00:15:17,958
Then chop 'em off forever."
337
00:15:17,959 --> 00:15:19,336
What effect do you think that had?
338
00:15:19,652 --> 00:15:20,986
Greased the way to profit.
339
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,072
Take the friction out.
For guys like me and Bonnie.
340
00:15:24,073 --> 00:15:26,658
And led to some pretty
close calls with the SEC,
341
00:15:26,659 --> 00:15:27,993
the U.S. Attorney's Office, the...
342
00:15:27,994 --> 00:15:29,245
Never convicted! We were...
343
00:15:29,287 --> 00:15:31,289
I mean, Axe was, sort of, in absentia.
344
00:15:31,330 --> 00:15:33,982
We're going on a different
kind of exploration here.
345
00:15:34,017 --> 00:15:35,725
Because I believe it'll
lead you to be better,
346
00:15:35,726 --> 00:15:37,587
not worse, at your jobs.
347
00:15:40,798 --> 00:15:42,967
We used to work for a killer,
348
00:15:43,301 --> 00:15:46,137
now we've got a guy who
wants to know how we "feel."
349
00:15:46,186 --> 00:15:48,405
Why is he asking for our guidance?
350
00:15:48,406 --> 00:15:49,715
Why doesn't he know what to do?
351
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:50,808
Point me at a hill,
352
00:15:51,184 --> 00:15:52,518
tell me to take the hill.
353
00:15:52,519 --> 00:15:54,178
That's what I want in a general.
354
00:15:54,203 --> 00:15:57,148
I must admit,
Axe's ruthlessness was almost...
355
00:15:57,648 --> 00:15:59,192
reassuring.
356
00:16:01,193 --> 00:16:02,611
This might not be salvageable.
357
00:16:02,653 --> 00:16:05,113
Maybe we just take the
joint down to the rivets.
358
00:16:05,155 --> 00:16:06,840
- Start over.
- Nah.
359
00:16:06,841 --> 00:16:08,618
We can turn it around.
360
00:16:09,577 --> 00:16:10,719
Can't we?
361
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,121
Turn it around?
362
00:16:13,222 --> 00:16:14,281
Can you?
363
00:16:15,510 --> 00:16:17,768
Well, if anyone can guide me there,
it's you.
364
00:16:17,810 --> 00:16:20,630
You're the magic sauce, aren't you?
365
00:16:20,691 --> 00:16:23,174
Special sauce. Magic touch.
366
00:16:23,857 --> 00:16:26,043
I don't get nervous.
You make me nervous.
367
00:16:26,068 --> 00:16:27,360
Like you can see through me.
368
00:16:27,361 --> 00:16:30,030
That's a good technique.
But you're not nervous.
369
00:16:30,031 --> 00:16:31,365
And you said "magic sauce" on purpose
370
00:16:31,407 --> 00:16:33,518
to give me the power
in the conversation.
371
00:16:35,353 --> 00:16:37,146
What do you want with me?
372
00:16:38,022 --> 00:16:40,540
I wanted to see if you were
that good. You are.
373
00:16:40,541 --> 00:16:42,375
That's very much up
for debate right now.
374
00:16:42,376 --> 00:16:43,319
Not with me.
375
00:16:43,569 --> 00:16:44,795
I look at my results,
376
00:16:44,820 --> 00:16:47,448
and I don't see a lot of
checkmarks in the win column.
377
00:16:48,049 --> 00:16:49,617
My guy lost this whole place.
378
00:16:49,951 --> 00:16:51,801
Guy hits 700 home runs,
379
00:16:51,802 --> 00:16:54,055
but gets caught bringing
a corked bat to plate,
380
00:16:54,096 --> 00:16:56,348
you can't blame yourself
without also taking credit
381
00:16:56,349 --> 00:16:57,682
for the 700 dingers.
382
00:16:57,683 --> 00:16:59,518
The one matters more than the other.
383
00:16:59,752 --> 00:17:03,355
On that, we agree.
You'll find no pine tar, no cork,

Okay, Mr. October.
387
00:17:08,236 --> 00:17:09,362
But I'm not settling either,
388
00:17:09,404 --> 00:17:11,156
for my current level of performance.
389
00:17:11,198 --> 00:17:13,156
And here's one you
probably didn't guess.
390
00:17:13,157 --> 00:17:14,934
I've never been coached.
391
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,787
Not since I was an athlete, I mean.
392
00:17:17,937 --> 00:17:20,206
No therapy, no executive coaching,
393
00:17:20,207 --> 00:17:22,041
no shrink, no life guru.
394
00:17:22,792 --> 00:17:23,803
But with you...
395
00:17:23,828 --> 00:17:26,372
Nah, there is no "with me."
396
00:17:27,293 --> 00:17:30,258
If I can somehow still
do what I used to,
397
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,551
I can't do it with
someone unless I have,
398
00:17:32,576 --> 00:17:35,095
or can manufacture, objectivity.
399
00:17:35,096 --> 00:17:36,638
You weren't objective with Axe.
400
00:17:36,639 --> 00:17:38,890
[SCOFFS] Yeah,
not so hype about his name
401
00:17:38,891 --> 00:17:40,835
coming out of your mouth.
There's no need for that.
402
00:17:41,627 --> 00:17:44,145
And how I felt about him
has nothing to do with
403
00:17:44,146 --> 00:17:45,965
how I feel about you. I...
404
00:17:46,257 --> 00:17:47,983
well, I didn't resent or hate him.
405
00:17:47,984 --> 00:17:50,318
Hate? Ouch. Hate feels extreme.
406
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:52,513
How else should your
prisoners think of you?
407
00:17:52,514 --> 00:17:53,613
You're not a prisoner.
408
00:17:53,614 --> 00:17:54,991
You signed an employment contract.
409
00:17:55,016 --> 00:17:57,785
So did a certain musical
genius you share a name with.
410
00:17:58,102 --> 00:18:00,662
Didn't stop him from writing
"slave" on his face.
411
00:18:00,663 --> 00:18:02,163
Technically, once he did that,
412
00:18:02,164 --> 00:18:04,165
he was The Artist
Formerly Known as Prince.
413
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:06,209
And, look,
I bargained for your services,
414
00:18:06,210 --> 00:18:08,153
but I would never keep you
here against your will.
415
00:18:08,154 --> 00:18:09,838
So I can leave and work at another fund?
416
00:18:09,839 --> 00:18:11,824
Oh, we're not there yet. You leaving?

- Which ones?
- All of 'em.

422
00:18:25,021 --> 00:18:27,548
or they're going to peel off. En masse.
423
00:18:28,007 --> 00:18:29,884
Should we sound him out about it?
424
00:18:29,926 --> 00:18:31,568
I just don't see the point.
425
00:18:31,569 --> 00:18:34,297

but the institutional knowledge...

Believe me, it wasn't pretty.

Even if I wanted to get rid of him,
433
00:18:47,168 --> 00:18:48,669
- the buyout makes it...
- Popping a zit
434

is painful for a moment.
But then, you're blemish-free.
435

Yeah. If it cost me 80
million bucks to pop a zit.

You sound a little
sorry we made the call.
437
00:18:55,343 --> 00:18:57,594
- So we make him want to quit?
- He has to.
438
00:18:57,595 --> 00:19:00,039
Or has to get fired for cause
for us to get out of the deal.
439
00:19:00,389 --> 00:19:02,390
He'll get the idea
without us doing anything,
440
00:19:02,391 --> 00:19:04,794
as soon as he sees he has
no influence here anymore,
441
00:19:05,086 --> 00:19:07,396
no portfolio, no life.
442
00:19:17,636 --> 00:19:19,699
Why do you want to give me
this only to take it back
443
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:21,201
after you fire me at the end of the day
444
00:19:21,202 --> 00:19:24,412
or week or whenever it
is in your calendar for?
445
00:19:24,413 --> 00:19:26,331
There's no date for that
in the calendar right now.

884
00:38:48,602 --> 00:38:50,228
The place to go,
885
00:38:50,812 --> 00:38:52,063
the sense of purpose.
886
00:38:53,064 --> 00:38:54,440
Maybe it's the ticker scare,
887
00:38:54,482 --> 00:38:56,626
but I'm thinking money
isn't the main thing.
888
00:38:56,929 --> 00:38:58,768
Or maybe it's that I'm
greedier than I thought,
889
00:38:58,809 --> 00:39:02,221
and want all of it. But I
890
00:39:02,688 --> 00:39:05,118
don't think I'm gonna settle.
891
00:39:05,816 --> 00:39:06,636
Nope.
892
00:39:06,637 --> 00:39:08,220
I'm gonna hold out for the full pop.
893
00:39:08,221 --> 00:39:10,988
And, yes, you could put me
out to pasture and pay me,
894
00:39:11,030 --> 00:39:13,960
but here's what you don't know...
895
00:39:14,158 --> 00:39:15,670
Get Scooter in here.
896
00:39:27,015 --> 00:39:29,214
Tell me what you've
learned about the team.
897
00:39:29,215 --> 00:39:32,802
Victor Mateo comes off
streetwise but went to Yale.
898
00:39:32,843 --> 00:39:35,721
Low double-digit returns
average over his career.
899
00:39:35,763 --> 00:39:37,807
Ben Kim, Stanford grad.
900
00:39:37,848 --> 00:39:39,100
Solid fundamental approach.
901
00:39:39,141 --> 00:39:41,062
Risk averse, but improving.
902
00:39:41,087 --> 00:39:44,232
Tuk Lal, close immigrant family,
overachiever.
903
00:39:44,407 --> 00:39:45,658
Bonnie Barella,
904
00:39:45,659 --> 00:39:47,786
a bit uncommitted,
has gone firm to firm...
905
00:39:47,827 --> 00:39:48,828
You done?
906
00:39:48,870 --> 00:39:52,247
Because you could get that
weak shit from LinkedIn.
907
00:39:52,248 --> 00:39:54,334
The things you don't know are,
908
00:39:54,626 --> 00:39:57,220
Victor acts like he's a
capo in the 6th Mob family
909
00:39:57,255 --> 00:39:59,747
but translates French
literature in his spare time
910
00:39:59,772 --> 00:40:01,399
and he has taken a personal vow
911
00:40:01,441 --> 00:40:03,024
never to have a down
year for his clients
912
00:40:03,025 --> 00:40:05,194
because that's how he
proves to his dead father
913
00:40:05,236 --> 00:40:06,778
he's the better man.
914
00:40:06,779 --> 00:40:09,072
Ben Kim got a perfect score on his SATs,
915
00:40:09,073 --> 00:40:11,366
but he feels like he's the
dumb one in his family.
916
00:40:11,367 --> 00:40:14,187
His mother's alive,
but she already haunts him.
917
00:40:14,526 --> 00:40:17,123
That nice guy thing is
cloaking a giant ambition
918
00:40:17,165 --> 00:40:18,900
that needs to be unleashed.
919
00:40:19,317 --> 00:40:21,377
Tuk Lal. He tried to date
920
00:40:21,434 --> 00:40:22,711
the prettiest girl in his high school,
921
00:40:22,712 --> 00:40:24,171
but she fucking crushed him.
922
00:40:24,172 --> 00:40:25,423
Told him he was a loser.
923
00:40:25,465 --> 00:40:27,174
He's desperately afraid she's right,
924
00:40:27,175 --> 00:40:29,052
and won't stop until he's rich as Gatsby
925
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:30,053
to prove her wrong.
926
00:40:30,054 --> 00:40:31,929
And Bonnie, she is tribal.
927
00:40:31,971 --> 00:40:33,263
She hates outsiders
928
00:40:33,264 --> 00:40:35,975
and considers basically
everyone an outsider.
929
00:40:36,017 --> 00:40:37,352
But once you're in,
930
00:40:37,669 --> 00:40:40,379
you'll see that under that
pistachio shell exterior,
931
00:40:40,380 --> 00:40:41,672
she's got a giant heart,
932
00:40:41,673 --> 00:40:43,383
and she'll protect you
like a mama badger.
933
00:40:43,425 --> 00:40:45,740
Oh, and she's terrified
of ending up alone,
934
00:40:45,775 --> 00:40:47,971
which can be marshaled
into making her into an earner
935
00:40:48,013 --> 00:40:49,764
of the first fucking order.
936
00:40:50,974 --> 00:40:52,100
Damn.
937
00:40:52,475 --> 00:40:53,393
Okay.
938
00:40:53,685 --> 00:40:55,520
Okay. We get the point.
939
00:40:55,745 --> 00:40:57,706
You know what moves the squad,
940
00:40:57,731 --> 00:40:58,872
what makes them rattle and hum.
941
00:40:58,873 --> 00:41:00,082
That's right.
942
00:41:00,083 --> 00:41:03,111
And also... Yes.
943
00:41:06,573 --> 00:41:08,283
I need this place.
944
00:41:09,153 --> 00:41:11,953
Like Gere needed OCS in Gent.
945
00:41:12,323 --> 00:41:14,597
But you fuckers need me too.
946
00:41:14,700 --> 00:41:15,701
Maybe.
947
00:41:15,743 --> 00:41:17,584
But trust is the problem.
948
00:41:17,995 --> 00:41:20,378
Oh, over time,
949
00:41:20,915 --> 00:41:22,880
I'm sure you'll earn my trust.
950
00:41:26,003 --> 00:41:27,802
They keep saying that.
951
00:41:33,386 --> 00:41:34,928
You said you wanted to see us.
952
00:41:34,929 --> 00:41:37,973
Yes, my old friends...
953
00:41:37,974 --> 00:41:40,309
Listen, you motherfuckers,
954
00:41:40,351 --> 00:41:43,729
it's being said I've
outlived my utility,
955
00:41:43,771 --> 00:41:45,064
that I'm a right-hand man
956
00:41:45,106 --> 00:41:46,564
in search of a man to be that hand to.
957
00:41:46,565 --> 00:41:48,740
But I am not done.
958
00:41:48,765 --> 00:41:50,006
I've still got some fight left,
959
00:41:50,007 --> 00:41:52,535
some money to make,
and a next act to play.
960
00:41:52,822 --> 00:41:54,529
Maybe you're all still upset
961
00:41:54,554 --> 00:41:55,679
that things aren't like they were.
962
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,248
Bwah-fucking-hah. Get over it.
963
00:41:57,540 --> 00:42:00,810
We've got a new general.
And while I too have been burned
964
00:42:00,852 --> 00:42:02,562
by the rug pull and the spying,
965
00:42:02,603 --> 00:42:04,964
well, that worked out for me, I guess.
966
00:42:05,381 --> 00:42:07,125
You'd better get in fucking step
967
00:42:07,150 --> 00:42:08,942
and start acting like the mercenary army
968
00:42:08,943 --> 00:42:11,361
of professional moneymakers that you are
969
00:42:11,362 --> 00:42:12,780
and get set to kill for him,
970
00:42:12,822 --> 00:42:14,865
or else this place is going to turn into
971
00:42:14,866 --> 00:42:16,392
Parris Fucking Island.
972
00:42:16,768 --> 00:42:18,811
- What's that...
- Look it up!
973
00:42:23,416 --> 00:42:25,919
Just having a team-building exercise.
974
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,629
Ready to start rowing in the
same fucking direction, sir.
975
00:42:29,630 --> 00:42:31,157
Excited about it!
976
00:42:31,616 --> 00:42:33,743
We're gonna need everyone downstairs.
977
00:42:36,245 --> 00:42:38,263
I thought Sam Kinison died.
978
00:42:38,264 --> 00:42:41,334
Wags 2.0 requires the next update.
979
00:42:44,562 --> 00:42:46,605
'Bout fucking time someone showed
980
00:42:46,606 --> 00:42:47,924
some clankers around here.
981
00:42:48,524 --> 00:42:50,109
I'd like to welcome all of you,
982
00:42:50,151 --> 00:42:52,779
our investors who have
placed such trust in our firm
983
00:42:52,820 --> 00:42:53,946
over the years.
984
00:42:53,947 --> 00:42:56,265
Even before it was this specific firm.
985
00:42:56,616 --> 00:42:59,044
One of the things I brought
to our organization
986
00:42:59,084 --> 00:43:01,412
is a moral barometer.
987
00:43:01,454 --> 00:43:03,289
I understand that these employees
988
00:43:03,339 --> 00:43:04,715
give many of you comfort.
989
00:43:04,749 --> 00:43:06,333
They've managed your money well.
990
00:43:06,334 --> 00:43:07,318
They've grown it.
991
00:43:07,735 --> 00:43:10,279
They've protected you
against downside exposure.
992
00:43:11,005 --> 00:43:13,006
But things must develop
993
00:43:13,007 --> 00:43:15,201
and evolve and change,
994
00:43:15,660 --> 00:43:18,261
and I can no longer
allow this place to be
995
00:43:18,262 --> 00:43:21,290
peopled with compromised individuals.
996
00:43:23,835 --> 00:43:25,420
Do I fire them all?
997
00:43:27,088 --> 00:43:28,298
Start clean?
998
00:43:29,382 --> 00:43:31,775
Even as I have made a
promise to lift them up
999
00:43:31,776 --> 00:43:34,137
and train them in my
way of doing things?
1000
00:43:34,782 --> 00:43:37,533
Or is there another way
to rebuild, retool?
1001
00:43:37,534 --> 00:43:39,911
Another attachment to cast off?
1002
00:43:39,912 --> 00:43:41,993
I would love if there
were a different way
1003
00:43:41,994 --> 00:43:43,036
instead of firing us.
1004
00:43:43,037 --> 00:43:44,371
Why don't you shut the hell up.
1005
00:43:44,372 --> 00:43:46,039
- No.
- [PRINCE] None of that, Victor.
1006
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,252
Enough firepower is
pointed in his direction.
1007
00:43:49,610 --> 00:43:51,487
In all of your direction.
1008
00:43:52,508 --> 00:43:53,925
And if I fired all of you,
1009
00:43:53,926 --> 00:43:56,249
but kept the incentive
structure the same,
1010
00:43:56,284 --> 00:43:58,611
the next batch of analysts
and portfolio managers
1011
00:43:58,636 --> 00:44:00,788
would end up in the exact same place.
1012
00:44:01,055 --> 00:44:03,056
It's the root cause that has to shift.
1013
00:44:03,057 --> 00:44:05,126
Uh, in what way, Prince?
1014
00:44:09,104 --> 00:44:11,340
Let's look at the prevailing winds.
1015
00:44:14,552 --> 00:44:18,514
The prevailing feeling in
the country about wealth.
1016
00:44:19,474 --> 00:44:21,434
I think it's largely right.
1017
00:44:21,726 --> 00:44:23,269
Too much is concentrated
1018
00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:25,230
in the hands of too few.
1019
00:44:25,563 --> 00:44:27,564
But let's not blame those who manage
1020
00:44:27,565 --> 00:44:28,748
that wealth for them.
1021
00:44:28,749 --> 00:44:31,544
Let's instead look to those
who profit the most.
1022
00:44:31,819 --> 00:44:33,738
As one of them,
I understand the temptation
1023
00:44:33,780 --> 00:44:35,614
more than almost anyone can.
1024
00:44:35,615 --> 00:44:36,865
And it's true.
1025
00:44:36,866 --> 00:44:39,743
Many of the wealthiest have
misused their resources.
1026
00:44:39,744 --> 00:44:41,871
Many have cut corners.
1027
00:44:42,911 --> 00:44:44,332
We will not.
1028
00:44:45,208 --> 00:44:47,101
In fact, we won't take their money.
1029
00:44:47,418 --> 00:44:49,936
I'm not firing them, my employees.
1030
00:44:49,937 --> 00:44:52,298
I'm firing you, my investors.
1031
00:44:52,340 --> 00:44:54,549
Which is why I've called you all in.
1032
00:44:54,550 --> 00:44:57,628
We have checks drawn and
wire confirmations on hand
1033
00:44:57,653 --> 00:44:58,596
for your redemptions.
1034
00:44:58,638 --> 00:45:00,681
Thank you for your business,
and should you reach
1035
00:45:00,723 --> 00:45:02,657
our new standards
for ethics in business,
1036
00:45:02,658 --> 00:45:04,310
perhaps we'll meet again.
1037
00:45:05,686 --> 00:45:07,104
Mr. Rhoades.
1038
00:45:07,396 --> 00:45:09,331
This is no mark against your character.
1039
00:45:09,332 --> 00:45:11,167
But I can't keep you either.
1040
00:45:12,610 --> 00:45:14,862
You're giving me the bum's rush?
1041
00:45:14,904 --> 00:45:16,614
I think it's best for
your familial harmony
1042
00:45:16,656 --> 00:45:19,367
and our morale right here.
Thank you for your belief.
1043
00:45:19,408 --> 00:45:22,327
If this is some leftover
rancor against my son,
1044
00:45:22,328 --> 00:45:23,220
know this,
1045
00:45:23,221 --> 00:45:25,122
my little Willow will grow up
1046
00:45:25,164 --> 00:45:27,750
with revenge on her mind.
1047
00:45:28,251 --> 00:45:30,002
Like Beatrix Kiddo?
1048
00:45:30,336 --> 00:45:32,338
If that's some young girl
1049
00:45:32,380 --> 00:45:34,981
squaring family accounts and some such,
1050
00:45:34,982 --> 00:45:37,385
then fuck yes.
1051
00:45:38,052 --> 00:45:40,440
Melville, thank you for your business.
1052
00:45:40,475 --> 00:45:42,864
Hold on a second,
I'm in a wholly different...
1053
00:45:42,865 --> 00:45:43,991
Different but the same.
1054
00:45:44,091 --> 00:45:46,310
The controversy you're in the middle of,
it's too hot,
1055
00:45:46,352 --> 00:45:47,728
and you're on the wrong side of it.
1056
00:45:47,770 --> 00:45:49,188
But it's also your company.
1057
00:45:50,022 --> 00:45:51,539
We don't want a security contractor
1058
00:45:51,540 --> 00:45:53,776
who sells pepper spray and
rubber bullets around here.
1059
00:45:53,818 --> 00:45:55,627
We don't want to make you richer.
1060

- He-he.
1063

But I am hereby creating
The Prince List,
1064
00:46:08,499 --> 00:46:10,835
which involves shedding
all the dirty capital
1065
00:46:10,877 --> 00:46:12,186

1066
00:46:13,129 --> 00:46:14,547
From now on,
1067
00:46:14,839 --> 00:46:17,674
clients will have to
qualify to invest with us.
1068
00:46:17,675 --> 00:46:20,294
The SEC has blessed this approach
1069
00:46:20,319 --> 00:46:22,196
and given us a clean bill of health.
1070
00:46:22,795 --> 00:46:24,197
We're flipping the paradigm.
1071
00:46:24,198 --> 00:46:26,366
Instead of proving our
worth to the investors,
1072
00:46:26,367 --> 00:46:28,519
our investors will have
to prove their worth.
1073
00:46:29,016 --> 00:46:30,955
As a pension fund. As a company.
1074
00:46:30,997 --> 00:46:32,248
As a union.
1075
00:46:32,290 --> 00:46:33,566

00:46:36,652 --> 00:46:38,986
We'll take a hit at first, to be sure.
1078

But we'll be able to
hold our heads up high.
1079
00:46:40,906 --> 00:46:44,201

a third for appearances?

1090

So he will ride with us,
1091
00:47:20,588 --> 00:47:23,506

way this industry works.

our capital by two-thirds,
