00:08:50,980 --> 00:08:53,065
Dad, I'm fine.
181
00:08:53,107 --> 00:08:55,234
Kev, that's code for "not fine."
182
00:08:55,276 --> 00:08:58,028
I fucked up and said your name.
183
00:08:58,070 --> 00:08:59,739
[CHUCK] To whom?
184
00:08:59,780 --> 00:09:02,950
I found the one sorry
son of a bitch at the DMV
185
00:09:02,992 --> 00:09:06,662
that doesn't know the difference
between a gratuity and a bribe.
186
00:09:07,621 --> 00:09:09,081
Don't say another word,
187
00:09:09,123 --> 00:09:10,583
either of you.
188
00:09:14,378 --> 00:09:15,880
I'm planning on telling Mike
189
00:09:15,921 --> 00:09:17,298
he should punt on the
performance reviews.
190
00:09:17,339 --> 00:09:19,133
Oh, you're planning.
191
00:09:20,259 --> 00:09:21,886
Well, I mean, if you want to,
192
00:09:21,927 --> 00:09:23,429
I'll of course step back and...
193
00:09:23,471 --> 00:09:25,014
I thought that's why
you said it that way,
194
00:09:25,055 --> 00:09:26,265
so I would do it for you.
195
00:09:26,307 --> 00:09:27,892
For Mike. For the firm.
196
00:09:27,933 --> 00:09:30,644
It's not something that can be punted.
197
00:09:30,686 --> 00:09:33,939
After those truth-telling sessions,
folks are queasy.
198
00:09:33,981 --> 00:09:35,816
I think the staff knows
that Mike would never use
199
00:09:35,858 --> 00:09:38,486
performance reviews as
a way to exact vengeance
200
00:09:38,527 --> 00:09:40,905
on people who merely spoke
the truth about what they felt.
201
00:09:40,946 --> 00:09:42,823
Yeah, well, the mere fact
202
00:09:42,865 --> 00:09:45,159
that you just referred
to them as "staff"
203
00:09:45,201 --> 00:09:47,244
says a lot about how
they'll feel being judged.
204
00:09:47,286 --> 00:09:48,788
Well, I guess your finger is just lodged
205
00:09:48,829 --> 00:09:50,080
right on the carotid of...
206
00:09:50,122 --> 00:09:51,707
[WAGS] No guesswork.
207
00:09:51,749 --> 00:09:53,709
That's all anybody talked
about at movie night.
208
00:09:53,751 --> 00:09:55,961
Movie night?
Is that a colloquialism for something?
209
00:09:56,003 --> 00:09:57,463
Popcorn. Big screen.
210
00:09:57,505 --> 00:09:59,215
I'm surprised you decided to skip.
211
00:10:00,257 --> 00:10:01,801
Oh, shit.
212
00:10:01,842 --> 00:10:03,636
Didn't know this was a thing.
213
00:10:04,168 --> 00:10:05,429
Wasn't invited.
214
00:10:05,471 --> 00:10:07,139
I should have double-checked their list.
215
00:10:07,181 --> 00:10:09,099
- I just assumed they'd...
- What'd you watch?
216
00:10:09,141 --> 00:10:10,643
Double feature.
217
00:10:10,684 --> 00:10:11,977
Glengarry and Wolf of Wall Street.
218
00:10:12,019 --> 00:10:13,562
[CHUCKLES] Of course.
219
00:10:13,604 --> 00:10:15,439
Do they even know what
Wolf is really saying?
220
00:10:15,481 --> 00:10:16,649
Victor does.
221
00:10:16,690 --> 00:10:19,568
Sacker, obv. Rian.
222
00:10:19,610 --> 00:10:21,487
The rest, they think they should know
223
00:10:21,529 --> 00:10:23,447
how to sell a pen better.
224
00:10:23,489 --> 00:10:25,324
- You'll come next time.
- Oh, no.
225
00:10:25,366 --> 00:10:27,660
You're the man of the people.
I'll remain where I belong.
226
00:10:27,701 --> 00:10:29,787
Slightly above the staff.
227
00:10:29,829 --> 00:10:31,455
Your words, not mine.
228
00:10:36,752 --> 00:10:38,462
Scooter just texted me.
229
00:10:38,504 --> 00:10:40,172
I understand the concern
about the performance reviews.
230
00:10:40,214 --> 00:10:42,007
- When the fuck did you...?
- You don't get here
231
00:10:42,049 --> 00:10:43,676
without being able to multitask.
232
00:10:43,717 --> 00:10:45,636
Like how you can do a
double shot of Michter's
233
00:10:45,678 --> 00:10:48,347
while re-enacting your favorite
Nikki Dial-Rocco Siffredi scene.
234
00:10:48,389 --> 00:10:49,849
Who are those people?
235
00:10:49,890 --> 00:10:51,183
[BOTH] Better you don't know.
236
00:10:51,225 --> 00:10:52,726
Okay.
237
00:10:52,768 --> 00:10:55,104
I'll recuse myself from
the review process.
238
00:10:55,145 --> 00:10:57,106
I was planning on doing it anyway.
239
00:10:57,147 --> 00:10:59,859
I can't be seen as rewarding or
punishing anyone on the team...
240
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:01,652
Team. Not staff. There you go.
241
00:11:01,694 --> 00:11:03,696
...just because they said
bad or good things about me.
242
00:11:03,737 --> 00:11:05,322
Still, we have to do it.
243
00:11:05,364 --> 00:11:07,366
Can't go forward without
a thorough look back
244
00:11:07,408 --> 00:11:11,370
and a real evaluation of trading
tendencies, habits, all of it.
245
00:11:11,412 --> 00:11:13,372
How does that work without
you in the middle of it?
246
00:11:13,414 --> 00:11:15,040
You two will run the thing.
247
00:11:15,082 --> 00:11:16,959
I'm glad to leave it in your able hands.
248
00:11:25,759 --> 00:11:27,720
I need in there. Thank you.
249
00:11:30,598 --> 00:11:32,558
Dad. Kevin. What?
250
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,269
It's just a bureaucratic squabble.
251
00:11:35,311 --> 00:11:37,938
This aged man's attempt at bribing me
252
00:11:37,980 --> 00:11:42,026
failed as badly as this young
man failed his driving test.
253
00:11:42,067 --> 00:11:44,194
- He called the cops.
- You called the cops?
254
00:11:44,236 --> 00:11:45,571
I called the cops.
255
00:11:45,613 --> 00:11:47,907
[OFFICER] If money changed hands,
256
00:11:47,948 --> 00:11:50,075
we're going to have
to arrest and charge.
257
00:11:50,117 --> 00:11:51,577
[SIGHS]
258
00:11:51,619 --> 00:11:53,329
Don't make me ask the question.
259
00:11:55,122 --> 00:11:56,415
What question is that?
260
00:11:56,457 --> 00:11:58,334
Please.
261
00:11:59,335 --> 00:12:01,337
Yes, I know who you are.
262
00:12:01,378 --> 00:12:03,005
But it's a tight spot here.
263
00:12:03,047 --> 00:12:05,633
Can we have a moment with my father?
264
00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:13,098
[SIGHS]
265
00:12:14,475 --> 00:12:16,685
Charles, why are you even here,
266
00:12:16,727 --> 00:12:18,520
and what did you think you were doing?
267
00:12:18,562 --> 00:12:20,022
Making sure it went well.
268
00:12:20,064 --> 00:12:22,775
- [SCOFFS]
- That peon had it in for Kevin
269
00:12:22,816 --> 00:12:24,068
the moment he saw the Jag.
270
00:12:24,109 --> 00:12:25,444
It intimidated him.
271
00:12:27,488 --> 00:12:29,782
And like I said,
he didn't know the difference
272
00:12:29,823 --> 00:12:31,367
between a bribe and a tip.
273
00:12:31,408 --> 00:12:32,785
[QUINN] I heard that.
274
00:12:33,827 --> 00:12:35,621
You're going to jail.
275
00:12:35,663 --> 00:12:37,790
And Rhoades, Kevin, will be prohibited
276
00:12:37,831 --> 00:12:40,459
from holding a license to
drive in New York state.
277
00:12:40,501 --> 00:12:42,294
Jesus!
278
00:12:46,048 --> 00:12:48,342
[CHUCK] I am aware that
attempted bribery...
279
00:12:48,384 --> 00:12:50,928
if that is in fact what can be
proved to have happened here
280
00:12:50,970 --> 00:12:52,638
...is a serious offense.
281
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:54,974
I can guarantee his
appearance at arraignment,
282
00:12:55,015 --> 00:12:56,684
but if you will do me the courtesy
283
00:12:56,725 --> 00:12:58,644
of releasing him and referring this
284
00:12:58,686 --> 00:13:00,479
to the DA's office for investigation,
285
00:13:00,521 --> 00:13:02,064
it would be appreciated.
286
00:13:02,892 --> 00:13:05,484
I'd have to check with my superiors.
287
00:13:07,111 --> 00:13:09,321
Well, check with the commish.
288
00:13:09,363 --> 00:13:12,658
I have Raul Gomez in my favorites.
289
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:14,076
Thank you.
290
00:13:14,118 --> 00:13:15,786
[SCOFFS]
291
00:13:15,828 --> 00:13:18,580
The Department of Motor
Vehicles is not a playground
292
00:13:18,622 --> 00:13:20,249
for the well-connected
to do as they will.
293
00:13:20,290 --> 00:13:21,500
Ha!
294
00:13:21,542 --> 00:13:24,335
That is a clerk's mentality...
295
00:13:26,714 --> 00:13:30,676
and a clerk you will always fucking be.
296
00:13:30,718 --> 00:13:32,594
Dad! Not helping.
297
00:13:32,636 --> 00:13:34,179
Uh...
298
00:13:34,221 --> 00:13:35,681
You know, the sad fact is
299
00:13:35,723 --> 00:13:38,100
that some senility awaits us all
300
00:13:38,142 --> 00:13:40,019
in the golden years.
301
00:13:40,060 --> 00:13:41,854
Oh, bullshit.
302
00:13:41,895 --> 00:13:44,273
Oh, are you saying he's...?
303
00:13:46,191 --> 00:13:48,819
There are over 100 types of dementia.
304
00:13:52,406 --> 00:13:56,326
So, it can be tough to pinpoint
which we're talking about,
305
00:13:56,368 --> 00:13:58,162
but I think it's clear that something...
306
00:13:58,203 --> 00:14:00,164
My last med workup says I'm sharp
307
00:14:00,205 --> 00:14:02,124
as a goddamn titanium tack.
308
00:14:02,166 --> 00:14:04,543
Can you say the same?
309
00:14:06,754 --> 00:14:08,464
The commissioner is
granting your request.
310
00:14:08,505 --> 00:14:09,715
You're free to go.
311
00:14:09,757 --> 00:14:10,966
But he is indeed referring it
312
00:14:11,008 --> 00:14:12,217
to the DA's office.
313
00:14:12,259 --> 00:14:13,469
Great. Swell. Perfect.
314
00:14:13,510 --> 00:14:14,762
Wouldn't have it any other way.
315
00:14:14,803 --> 00:14:16,055
Thank you, officer.
316
00:14:16,096 --> 00:14:17,639
And thank you, sir,
317
00:14:17,681 --> 00:14:20,350
for your fealty to the
auto safety corridor.
318
00:14:20,392 --> 00:14:23,687
I note the sarcasm, for the record.
319
00:14:23,729 --> 00:14:25,147
[SIGHS]
320
00:14:27,775 --> 00:14:31,236
Bowing and scraping like that?
321
00:14:31,278 --> 00:14:33,655
- [CHUCK SIGHS]
- I thought you had juice!
322
00:14:33,697 --> 00:14:35,991
Can we just get out of here, please?
323
00:14:42,289 --> 00:14:45,334
Well, this should be
more fun than movie night.
324
00:14:45,375 --> 00:14:47,044
No one thought you would want to come.
325
00:14:47,086 --> 00:14:48,253
And right they were.
326
00:14:48,295 --> 00:14:49,797
[PHILIP] Okay, on the screens
327
00:14:49,838 --> 00:14:51,298
in front of each of us are dossiers
328
00:14:51,340 --> 00:14:53,050
covering the P&Ls, activities,
329
00:14:53,092 --> 00:14:56,261
results and tendencies of
each person who works at MPC.
330
00:14:56,303 --> 00:14:58,931
We will conduct interviews
and do the feedback sessions
331
00:14:58,972 --> 00:15:00,933
after we...
332
00:15:00,974 --> 00:15:02,476
We aren't at the feedback stage yet.
333
00:15:02,518 --> 00:15:04,144
- You'll be called in.
- Yeah, no, we won't.
334
00:15:04,186 --> 00:15:07,606
My man speaketh the truth.
335
00:15:07,648 --> 00:15:10,150
I'm not sure why I just used
that biblical version of speak,
336
00:15:10,192 --> 00:15:11,902
but I did, so...
337
00:15:11,944 --> 00:15:14,822
Because what we are
saying is as monumental
338
00:15:14,863 --> 00:15:17,241
as that language implies.
339
00:15:17,282 --> 00:15:18,951
Yes. Yeah. We were elected to tell you
340
00:15:18,992 --> 00:15:21,620
that we all reject the
framework of this panel
341
00:15:21,662 --> 00:15:22,996
judging us and our work.
342
00:15:23,038 --> 00:15:25,082
The employees can't reject...
343
00:15:25,124 --> 00:15:26,458
- Team members.
- Absolutely.
344
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:28,127
The team members can't reject the idea
345
00:15:28,168 --> 00:15:29,628
that their performance
is being evaluated.
346
00:15:29,670 --> 00:15:31,880
Well, we are rejecting you, all of you,
347
00:15:31,922 --> 00:15:33,465
as the ones evaluating.
348
00:15:33,507 --> 00:15:36,051
You don't get to pick
how management decides.
349
00:15:36,093 --> 00:15:39,429
Management does.
That's how business works.
350
00:15:39,471 --> 00:15:41,598
Upon a time it did. Not now.
351
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:42,808
It's true, Wags.
352
00:15:42,850 --> 00:15:44,726
We are in an un-brave new world.
353
00:15:47,604 --> 00:15:49,314
I mean, no offense, Scooter,
354
00:15:49,356 --> 00:15:51,567
but you're not in touch
with the rank and file.
355
00:15:51,608 --> 00:15:53,152
You don't even come to movie night.
356
00:15:53,193 --> 00:15:54,945
- I wasn't inv...

In Will Guidara's book
Unreasonable Hospitality,
544
00:25:39,612 --> 00:25:41,322
he tells a story about how,
545
00:25:41,364 --> 00:25:43,992
when someone misses a
few meetings or is late,
546
00:25:44,033 --> 00:25:45,994
the instinct is to get
right in their face
547
00:25:46,035 --> 00:25:48,580
and give them massive guff about it.
548
00:25:48,621 --> 00:25:50,540

a plasma substitute

that could save soldiers'
lives wounded in theater?
717
00:33:51,561 --> 00:33:52,771
But the inventor can't roll it out
718
00:33:52,813 --> 00:33:54,565
because she's surrounded by sharks.
719
00:33:56,776 --> 00:33:59,445
That is a great injustice,

we will not proceed with the

It is more important that
instead of judging each other,
735
00:34:50,121 --> 00:34:51,956
we come together. So...

Kate has an angle on the Ruloff thing.
753
00:35:44,175 --> 00:35:46,844
I wanted you to hear it.
We just set it in motion an hour ago.
754
00:35:46,886 --> 00:35:48,679
Enzy-Novo, biotech firm.
755
00:35:48,721 --> 00:35:52,099
They create the bacterial enzyme
that Ruloff's process uses.
756
00:35:52,141 --> 00:35:55,019
And that, the enzyme,
it's proprietary, I imagine.
757
00:35:55,061 --> 00:35:57,688
As patented as Carla Fracci's Giselle.

761
00:36:07,907 --> 00:36:09,742
Ruloff will be neutralized.
762
00:36:09,784 --> 00:36:12,578
Without Enzy-Novo,
Ruloff is just making everyday cement.
763
00:36:12,620 --> 00:36:15,289
It'll take him years to replace
or create his own bacteria.
764
00:36:15,331 --> 00:36:17,792
Mm, I'd love to see Ruloff's
face when he finds out
765
00:36:17,833 --> 00:36:20,252
he can't have the starter
for his concrete sourdough.
766
00:36:20,294 --> 00:36:22,004
So, that second, when he's gut-punched,

00:36:22,046 --> 00:36:25,174
is when we go back to him
with our last and best offer?

I'm in an exclusive
negotiation period with them,

was made for the road.
819
00:38:39,433 --> 00:38:41,185
They weren't durable cars,
820

That really bothers him,
the thought that it might happen to his.

So he bought an entirely
different Karmann Ghia

The smile on his face when
he would drive off in it...

that you'll find productive.
1063
00:50:38,401 --> 00:50:39,945
It's irrelevant at this point.
We have what we need.
1064
00:50:39,986 --> 00:50:41,571
How's that?
1065
00:50:41,613 --> 00:50:44,407
You all said nothing
but told us everything.
1066
00:50:45,049 --> 00:50:47,244
I've taken Vanessa Selbst's raw research
1067
00:50:47,285 --> 00:50:49,412
and put it into language that discloses
1068
00:50:49,454 --> 00:50:52,916
what the usual comp process does,
and much more.
1069
00:50:52,958 --> 00:50:55,418
Using prospect theory,
1070
00:50:55,460 --> 00:50:57,462
as based on Kahneman and Tversky's
1071
00:50:57,504 --> 00:51:00,048
Nobel Prize-winning research
recognizing loss aversion
1072
00:51:00,090 --> 00:51:03,260
that veers directly into
sunk cost fallacy...
1073
00:51:05,512 --> 00:51:08,181
along with many other
related pathologies
1074
00:51:08,223 --> 00:51:09,766
that were revealed the other night...
1075
00:51:11,977 --> 00:51:15,021
the participation of the employees
is no longer required.
1076
00:51:15,063 --> 00:51:16,898
[VICTOR] Shit.
1077
00:51:16,940 --> 00:51:20,860
Casino Night wasn't some
team-building exercise.
1078
00:51:20,902 --> 00:51:23,363
It was an observation chamber.
1079
00:51:24,656 --> 00:51:26,616
Yes, we already know
what we need to know
1080
00:51:26,658 --> 00:51:28,451
in order to gauge the employees'
risk assessment,
1081
00:51:28,493 --> 00:51:30,036
strategic approach, expected outcome,
1082
00:51:30,078 --> 00:51:31,288
performance in general.
1083
00:51:31,329 --> 00:51:32,539
Thanks for your time.
1084
00:51:32,580 --> 00:51:34,249
Son of a bitch.
1085
00:51:34,291 --> 00:51:36,418
What's next, the Milgram experiment?
1086
00:51:36,459 --> 00:51:40,005
You want to see if we'll join
in shocking each other?
1087
00:51:42,674 --> 00:51:45,677
Oh, who was the winner of the big prize?
1088
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,345
Peach took it down.
1089
00:51:47,387 --> 00:51:48,805
Fuck me.
1090
00:51:48,847 --> 00:51:50,932
- Wow, wow, wow.
- Does she even golf?
1091
00:51:50,974 --> 00:51:53,101
I hear she's about to flip
it to a PM at another firm
1092
00:51:53,143 --> 00:51:54,769
for 300 grand.
1093
00:51:58,857 --> 00:52:00,483
Shame they're so upset.
1094
00:52:00,525 --> 00:52:02,777
Victor and Rian had some
of the best approaches.
1095
00:52:02,819 --> 00:52:04,612
Unlike the bulk of those losers.
1096
00:52:05,613 --> 00:52:07,490
Including you, Wags.
1097
00:52:07,532 --> 00:52:09,492
You were in on the gag,
and yet you bled off
1098
00:52:09,534 --> 00:52:11,661
$4,900 in chips at baccarat.
1099
00:52:11,703 --> 00:52:13,246
Me?
1100
00:52:13,288 --> 00:52:15,498
I thought I was on the inside,
that I'm exempt.
1101
00:52:16,541 --> 00:52:18,168
[LAUGHS] Oh, no.
1102
00:52:18,209 --> 00:52:19,961
No one's exempt.
1103
00:52:20,003 --> 00:52:22,088
Goddamn it.
1104
00:52:22,130 --> 00:52:24,341
Scooter,
you're definitely not getting invited
1105
00:52:24,382 --> 00:52:25,842
to mini golf next week.
1106
00:52:26,885 --> 00:52:28,261
None of you are.
1107
00:52:32,682 --> 00:52:35,018
Everything I did went to shit.
1108
00:52:35,060 --> 00:52:36,853
I tried to run a performance review,
1109
00:52:36,895 --> 00:52:39,647
and it turned into a
psychological study.
1110
00:52:39,689 --> 00:52:41,608
I tried to help the firm
and ended up with nothing.
1111
00:52:41,649 --> 00:52:44,778
I tried to help my old teacher,
he lost everything.
1112
00:52:46,237 --> 00:52:48,198
I hoped to change the world,
it went nowhere.
1113
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,283
You're giving yourself a lot of credit
1114
00:52:50,325 --> 00:52:52,535
for how much you supposedly control.
1115
00:52:55,246 --> 00:52:56,706
[SIGHS]
1116
00:52:57,749 --> 00:52:59,292
No, you're right.
1117
00:53:00,251 --> 00:53:01,586
I should give you some.
1118
00:53:04,047 --> 00:53:06,007
Because when I went to you
and your ex-husband,
1119
00:53:06,049 --> 00:53:08,385
that's when the crap really
started flowing downhill.
1120
00:53:10,720 --> 00:53:13,598
Instead of handing out
the kudos and the blame,
1121
00:53:14,473 --> 00:53:17,560
why don't we talk about
turning this mess into action.
1122
00:53:19,604 --> 00:53:20,939
Because I saw you in his office,
1123
00:53:20,980 --> 00:53:22,565
and I know how you feel.
1124
00:53:22,607 --> 00:53:24,776
Whatever plan you're considering,
leave me out.
1125
00:53:24,818 --> 00:53:26,736
Whatever you, and Taylor,
and I don't know who else
1126
00:53:26,778 --> 00:53:28,071
are thinking about doing...
1127
00:53:32,033 --> 00:53:33,743
I can't.
1128
00:53:33,785 --> 00:53:35,912
Won't. I don't even want to.
1129
00:53:35,954 --> 00:53:38,665
I need, and I will have,
complete deniability.
1130
00:53:38,706 --> 00:53:40,917
As-is, right now,
there is nothing I could tell anyone,
1131
00:53:40,959 --> 00:53:42,710
nothing I should tell anyone.
1132
00:53:42,752 --> 00:53:44,170
I aim to keep it that way.
1133
00:53:46,798 --> 00:53:48,800
Then you do that.
1134
00:54:05,275 --> 00:54:07,318
You have an old friend at Defense,
don't you?
1135
00:54:08,611 --> 00:54:10,280
Did you talk to him lately?
1136
00:54:10,321 --> 00:54:15,201
Maybe ask him to, well,
classify something
1137
00:54:15,243 --> 00:54:17,454
that could really help the country,
1138
00:54:17,495 --> 00:54:19,581
just to screw over a rival?
1139
00:54:21,875 --> 00:54:25,253
If my actions hurt the man,
that is the way it is.
1140
00:54:26,304 --> 00:54:28,590
I presume he intends to declassify it,
1141
00:54:28,631 --> 00:54:30,925
if and when he gets into office.
1142
00:54:30,967 --> 00:54:34,512
But I can keep the wolf at bay for now.
1143
00:54:35,847 --> 00:54:37,807
See how that works out.
1144
00:54:39,267 --> 00:54:41,311
Right.
1145
00:54:42,604 --> 00:54:44,314
A lot of ways this could have gone
1146
00:54:44,355 --> 00:54:46,900
once you connected me
with that fella Philip Charyn.
1147
00:54:46,941 --> 00:54:49,652
But then you knew that.
1148
00:54:52,530 --> 00:54:54,824
Yep. I suppose I did.
1149
00:54:56,159 --> 00:54:57,827
[DOOR OPENS]
1150
00:55:02,207 --> 00:55:04,125
Well, some things turn out just fine.
1151
00:55:04,167 --> 00:55:05,793
Yes, they do. A lot of things.
1152
