Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,375 --> 00:00:02,335
who'll suffer,
it'll be Wendy Rhoades.
2
00:00:02,376 --> 00:00:04,879
With a new leadership structure
comes new opportunity,
3
00:00:04,921 --> 00:00:06,131
every rung of the ladder.
4
00:00:06,172 --> 00:00:07,590
[Ben Kim]
It's gonna be a bloodbath.
5
00:00:07,632 --> 00:00:09,342
[reporters shouting]
6
00:00:10,468 --> 00:00:12,137
[Axe]
You see, this is the problem
7
00:00:12,178 --> 00:00:13,680
with squaring away
your enemies list.
8
00:00:13,722 --> 00:00:16,349
You wake up all your enemies
in the process.
9
00:00:16,391 --> 00:00:18,143
[Wendy]
Welcome home, Bobby.
10
00:00:19,185 --> 00:00:20,395
Thank God you're here.
11
00:00:20,437 --> 00:00:22,605
Ain't that
the motherfucking truth.
12
00:00:22,647 --> 00:00:24,357
Now let's get to work.
13
00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:46,671
[Bruce Springsteen: "It's Hard
to Be a Saint in the City"]
14
00:01:05,940 --> 00:01:08,485
I had skin like leather
15
00:01:08,526 --> 00:01:11,780
And the diamond-hard
Look of a cobra
16
00:01:14,157 --> 00:01:16,701
I was born
Blue and weathered
17
00:01:16,743 --> 00:01:19,829
But I burst
Just like a supernova
18
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,294
I could walk like Brando
Right into the sun
19
00:01:26,336 --> 00:01:31,341
Then dance
Just like a Casanova
20
00:01:32,509 --> 00:01:34,135
With my blackjack
And jacket
21
00:01:34,177 --> 00:01:36,179
And my hair slicked sweet
22
00:01:36,221 --> 00:01:40,058
Silver star studs on my duds
Just like a Harley in heat
23
00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:44,521
When I strut down the street
I could hear its heart beat
24
00:01:44,562 --> 00:01:46,689
The sisters fell back
And said
25
00:01:46,731 --> 00:01:48,691
"Don't that man
Look pretty"
26
00:01:48,733 --> 00:01:51,361
The cripple on the corner
Cried out
27
00:01:51,402 --> 00:01:53,947
Hi, I just tried texting you.
28
00:01:53,988 --> 00:01:56,448
We up and running?
Everything going smooth?
29
00:01:56,491 --> 00:01:58,243
It's so hard to be a saint
30
00:01:58,284 --> 00:02:01,496
In the city
31
00:02:12,423 --> 00:02:14,134
Mike.
32
00:02:16,302 --> 00:02:18,263
You should have told me
you were coming
33
00:02:18,304 --> 00:02:20,431
so I could've had a strong,
fresh-brewed cup
34
00:02:20,473 --> 00:02:22,684
of get the fuck out
waiting for you.
35
00:02:22,725 --> 00:02:24,352
Oh, I'll leave.
36
00:02:24,394 --> 00:02:26,855
But first, let me tell you
how I spent yesterday.
37
00:02:35,738 --> 00:02:37,198
[Scooter] As per your
38
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,117
"we're getting out of-slash-
poised to get out of"...
39
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:41,077
I have orders at the ready
for our traders here
40
00:02:41,119 --> 00:02:42,954
to start unloading
at the opening bell, but--
41
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:44,080
-Copy.
-You can't copy
42
00:02:44,122 --> 00:02:45,582
while there's a "but" out there.
43
00:02:45,623 --> 00:02:47,167
The but says, "Don't copy yet,
there's more to discuss."
44
00:02:47,208 --> 00:02:48,543
And the word "order,"
which you used,
45
00:02:48,585 --> 00:02:49,878
says there's nothing
left to discuss.
46
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,337
It's the rock,
paper and scissors
47
00:02:51,379 --> 00:02:53,548
of organizational structure.
Get it done.
48
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:55,216
You need to hear that we
are going to take a real hit,
49
00:02:55,258 --> 00:02:57,594
optics-wise and wallet-wise.
We will look scared.
50
00:02:57,635 --> 00:03:00,555
We are scared. Or at least
on guard, as is appropriate.
51
00:03:00,597 --> 00:03:02,640
There could be lawsuits
from our investors and LPs.
52
00:03:02,682 --> 00:03:03,975
Spyros and Sacker
have both flagged
53
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:06,144
possible legal liability
if we really dump
54
00:03:06,186 --> 00:03:07,936
out of this stuff too quickly
and take losses.
55
00:03:07,979 --> 00:03:10,273
I understand all that, and will
deal with it when and if.
56
00:03:10,315 --> 00:03:14,110
So, yeah, you really have to
tell me to push the button and--
57
00:03:14,152 --> 00:03:15,653
I did.
That's what I said.
58
00:03:15,695 --> 00:03:16,905
In the heat of the moment,
sure.
59
00:03:16,946 --> 00:03:18,323
But now,
in the calm of the after,
60
00:03:18,364 --> 00:03:20,241
maybe we do some
deep-breathing exercises,
61
00:03:20,283 --> 00:03:22,452
get that oxygenated blood
to sort of set our somatics
62
00:03:22,493 --> 00:03:24,454
back to normal,
and then review the decision
63
00:03:24,495 --> 00:03:25,955
to basically have
a Korvettes-level
64
00:03:25,997 --> 00:03:27,540
"everything must go"
kind of fire sale.
65
00:03:27,582 --> 00:03:29,042
Somatic system, limbic system,
66
00:03:29,083 --> 00:03:30,960
brain waves
all functioning well.
67
00:03:31,002 --> 00:03:33,087
I had to push aside
all the emotional pain
68
00:03:33,129 --> 00:03:35,798
associated with this move to get
to a place of pure rationality.
69
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,967
This is not a rash decision.
It's reasoned.
70
00:03:38,009 --> 00:03:40,136
I know, because
I don't want to do it.
71
00:03:40,178 --> 00:03:41,596
I don't want to do it.
You do.
72
00:03:41,638 --> 00:03:43,431
Leadership is pumping
the brakes on "want"
73
00:03:43,473 --> 00:03:46,350
and putting pedal to the floor
on that which needs to be done.
74
00:03:46,392 --> 00:03:48,143
[Prince] You will structure
the liquidation
75
00:03:48,186 --> 00:03:49,811
and execute it at the open.
76
00:03:52,106 --> 00:03:53,650
I will.
77
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:55,944
Yes. Okay.
78
00:03:55,985 --> 00:03:57,570
Give me specifics.
What can we keep?
79
00:03:57,612 --> 00:03:59,697
You can't keep anything.
Get us flat.
80
00:03:59,739 --> 00:04:01,574
Everything becomes cash,
81
00:04:01,616 --> 00:04:04,827
and exposure to Axelrod
and his attacks goes to zero.
82
00:04:05,745 --> 00:04:08,581
This is a guy
who's strip-mined towns,
83
00:04:08,623 --> 00:04:10,625
knocked out
prominent families,
84
00:04:10,667 --> 00:04:12,669
taken over boards,
blown up firms,
85
00:04:12,710 --> 00:04:14,671
sabotaged thriving companies.
86
00:04:14,712 --> 00:04:16,339
Killed my ambassadorship.
87
00:04:16,381 --> 00:04:18,758
Exposure: zero.
88
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,343
And that's not even
considering Rhoades
89
00:04:20,385 --> 00:04:22,136
and all the crud he has
the capacity to do to us.
90
00:04:22,177 --> 00:04:24,347
No, will stay out unless
and until we are bulletproof.
91
00:04:24,389 --> 00:04:27,767
Only after we establish
completely favorable conditions
92
00:04:27,809 --> 00:04:30,103
do we plow back in.
93
00:04:41,698 --> 00:04:44,117
Jumping out in front of it,
like Sauce Gardner.
94
00:04:44,158 --> 00:04:46,160
If you think I'm stopping there,
you don't know me.
95
00:04:46,202 --> 00:04:48,371
Oh, I know you.
I watch close.
96
00:04:48,413 --> 00:04:51,040
[laughs]
Yeah, I would imagine you do.
97
00:04:51,082 --> 00:04:52,542
Which is why
I was watching everything.
98
00:04:52,583 --> 00:04:55,044
All my people.
All the things they do.
99
00:04:55,086 --> 00:04:56,337
Everything.
100
00:04:56,379 --> 00:04:58,673
Yeah. You said.
101
00:04:59,924 --> 00:05:02,260
I guess it's always important
to keep a close eye
102
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:04,846
when your people are really
your kidnap victims.
103
00:05:04,887 --> 00:05:06,347
No, Axe, not a close eye.
104
00:05:06,389 --> 00:05:08,308
A thousand eyes and ears,
105
00:05:08,349 --> 00:05:11,185
and the software
to make sense of it all.
106
00:05:11,227 --> 00:05:14,105
I stepped it up before I got
on that plane to come see you.
107
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:16,149
He's back, as you can see.
We are back.
108
00:05:16,190 --> 00:05:17,775
Already up and running.
109
00:05:17,817 --> 00:05:20,570
I don't have to pitch you the
feeling of coming home, do I?
110
00:05:20,611 --> 00:05:22,322
I can see on your faces
111
00:05:22,363 --> 00:05:24,324
the effect
is already hitting you.
112
00:05:24,365 --> 00:05:27,952
Yeah. Emotions
are present, no doubt.
113
00:05:27,994 --> 00:05:29,370
Strong pull
to join forces again,
114
00:05:29,412 --> 00:05:31,372
but there are
other forces at play.
115
00:05:32,707 --> 00:05:33,875
Even more powerful.
116
00:05:33,916 --> 00:05:36,544
Fucking feelings
can't run this show.
117
00:05:36,586 --> 00:05:39,130
If they did, I'd be all day
coaching middle school baseball.
118
00:05:39,172 --> 00:05:41,424
You'll have time to
if you stay with Prince.
119
00:05:41,466 --> 00:05:43,801
Nothing else for you to do.
120
00:05:43,843 --> 00:05:45,428
He's pulling out of everything.
121
00:05:45,470 --> 00:05:47,055
How much did he consult you
about that?
122
00:05:47,096 --> 00:05:48,890
How much control
do you really have?
123
00:05:48,931 --> 00:05:51,476
How much do you want to be able
to control your destiny?
124
00:05:51,517 --> 00:05:54,437
I control my destiny.
We all do.
125
00:05:54,479 --> 00:05:57,106
By staying at a place
that isn't even making trades?
126
00:05:57,148 --> 00:05:59,942
A money market account,
not a hedge fund?
127
00:05:59,984 --> 00:06:01,319
We can't do what you did.
128
00:06:01,361 --> 00:06:03,363
We can't leave all we
worked for at risk,
129
00:06:03,403 --> 00:06:05,323
gated at a place
we've alienated.
130
00:06:05,365 --> 00:06:08,576
You can.
You just get past the money.
131
00:06:08,618 --> 00:06:12,163
You remember that risking it all
is what animates you.
132
00:06:12,205 --> 00:06:14,749
It is all that animates you.
Or it used to.
133
00:06:16,042 --> 00:06:17,668
What about you?
134
00:06:18,836 --> 00:06:21,004
You were never
just about the money.
135
00:06:25,468 --> 00:06:28,554
Me, 20 years ago,
would have said fuck yes.
136
00:06:28,596 --> 00:06:29,889
But now?
137
00:06:29,931 --> 00:06:31,557
I am too old.
138
00:06:31,599 --> 00:06:33,351
Don't go full Murtaugh.
139
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,853
It's too depressing
from former warriors.
140
00:06:36,979 --> 00:06:38,231
Not being willing to lose
141
00:06:38,272 --> 00:06:39,440
everything I've made
142
00:06:39,482 --> 00:06:41,359
isn't the same as retirement.
143
00:06:41,401 --> 00:06:42,860
[Dollar Bill]
And Axe'll understand.
144
00:06:42,902 --> 00:06:45,405
He fucking taught us
to play the best hand
145
00:06:45,446 --> 00:06:46,989
to make the most money.
146
00:06:47,031 --> 00:06:48,574
[Victor] Yeah.
147
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:50,743
We're there now,
at Prince Capital.
148
00:06:50,785 --> 00:06:53,704
All our money,
our whole fucking future.
149
00:06:53,746 --> 00:06:56,040
We gotta make
this thing crush.
150
00:06:56,082 --> 00:06:58,167
Whether or not
he becomes president,
151
00:06:58,209 --> 00:07:01,295
our money is still
onboard there.
152
00:07:05,133 --> 00:07:06,592
[clears throat]
153
00:07:08,594 --> 00:07:10,596
[door opens]
154
00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:23,484
It's a really nice office.
155
00:08:03,899 --> 00:08:05,860
We need Nancy Dunlop.
156
00:08:05,902 --> 00:08:07,028
Do we?
157
00:08:07,069 --> 00:08:08,446
I took her out
at The Owl.
158
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:10,197
Yes, and you got
Fourth Pike's support.
159
00:08:10,239 --> 00:08:12,408
But the rest of the country,
the parts that love her,
160
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:13,658
weren't privy to that.
161
00:08:13,701 --> 00:08:15,203
Next step,
now that she's beaten,
162
00:08:15,244 --> 00:08:17,914
is for her to publicly declare
she's with you.
163
00:08:18,998 --> 00:08:21,542
I need the investment stuff here
resolved first.
164
00:08:21,584 --> 00:08:24,754
But, uh, I get that you're
jonesing pretty hard over this,
165
00:08:24,795 --> 00:08:26,339
-so lay it out.
-Okay.
166
00:08:26,380 --> 00:08:28,007
First of all,
she's in New York.
167
00:08:28,049 --> 00:08:29,217
And if you win her over,
168
00:08:29,258 --> 00:08:30,927
Dunlop turns her
organization over to us.
169
00:08:30,968 --> 00:08:33,012
That means her field operatives
around the country
170
00:08:33,054 --> 00:08:34,430
and the voter data.
171
00:08:34,472 --> 00:08:37,391
We get Montana and likely
the other Western states.
172
00:08:37,433 --> 00:08:40,686
This is the leading Democrat
giving you her troops
173
00:08:40,728 --> 00:08:41,938
and her endorsement.
174
00:08:41,979 --> 00:08:43,940
Email lists, donor lists,
175
00:08:43,981 --> 00:08:45,399
dark money orgs,
links to unions,
176
00:08:45,441 --> 00:08:47,026
lefty groups, grassroots.
177
00:08:47,068 --> 00:08:48,736
The keys
to the whole candy store.
178
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:51,405
That's right. We wouldn't have
to build and stock our own.
179
00:08:51,447 --> 00:08:52,698
And once you have all that,
180
00:08:52,740 --> 00:08:54,951
you are the presumptive
candidate.
181
00:08:54,992 --> 00:08:56,285
The front-runner.
182
00:08:56,327 --> 00:08:57,912
The presidential intelligence
briefings start,
183
00:08:57,954 --> 00:09:00,122
which will make you,
for all intents and purposes,
184
00:09:00,164 --> 00:09:01,332
the heir apparent.
185
00:09:01,374 --> 00:09:02,833
First time in the modern age
186
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:06,003
an independent candidate
would be in that perch.
187
00:09:06,921 --> 00:09:08,214
I get it.
188
00:09:08,256 --> 00:09:10,216
Book her for dinner,
but I'm not doing anything
189
00:09:10,258 --> 00:09:12,552
until the money
is taken care of here.
190
00:09:23,187 --> 00:09:24,438
I'll say this for you, Axe.
191
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,941
You trained Dollar Bill
and Victor well.
192
00:09:26,983 --> 00:09:28,568
They did the right thing,
193
00:09:28,609 --> 00:09:30,778
like Henry Hill
after the Air France heist.
194
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:34,282
They paid tribute.
They kicked up.
195
00:09:34,323 --> 00:09:36,576
The important thing is
we said no.
196
00:09:36,617 --> 00:09:38,995
Unequivocally. To Axe.
197
00:09:40,204 --> 00:09:41,497
We hardly even heard him out.
198
00:09:41,539 --> 00:09:43,207
Axe approached you,
you rebuffed him.
199
00:09:43,249 --> 00:09:44,584
This is the thing?
200
00:09:44,625 --> 00:09:46,252
-His proxy, yes.
-Taylor.
201
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:49,171
Way we figure it, this is the
rocket ship we want to be on.
202
00:09:49,213 --> 00:09:50,548
And they came
right to me.
203
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:52,174
Didn't waffle. Didn't evade.
204
00:09:52,216 --> 00:09:53,926
Didn't make us go to them.
Same with Rian.
205
00:09:53,968 --> 00:09:55,136
She emailed, though,
206
00:09:55,177 --> 00:09:56,846
said she's not
in a talking mood.
207
00:10:03,686 --> 00:10:05,938
Good.
These are the trusteds.
208
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:07,106
You all are.
209
00:10:07,148 --> 00:10:08,691
So start finding me
base hit trades.
210
00:10:08,733 --> 00:10:11,652
Singles and doubles only,
with predefined exits.
211
00:10:11,694 --> 00:10:14,280
When we go back in,
it'll be a big, concerted move.
212
00:10:14,322 --> 00:10:15,823
Only moves worth making.
213
00:10:15,865 --> 00:10:17,617
I've got some ideas,
stuff I'm looking at.
214
00:10:17,658 --> 00:10:19,201
-We start with--
-[Prince] But not yet.
215
00:10:19,243 --> 00:10:21,662
Not until I'm bulletproof.
216
00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:25,082
Prepare. But don't act.
217
00:10:36,344 --> 00:10:38,471
How come you two
didn't run to me or Philip?
218
00:10:40,765 --> 00:10:45,311
Uh, these-- these two
are good guys and good earners.
219
00:10:45,353 --> 00:10:47,980
And they weren't even there.
Didn't go see him.
220
00:10:50,191 --> 00:10:52,526
-It's true what he says.
-But they were invited.
221
00:10:52,568 --> 00:10:54,362
You were, weren't you?
222
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:56,989
You were touched,
223
00:10:57,031 --> 00:10:59,742
invited to go hear a pitch
from Axe Global.
224
00:11:01,577 --> 00:11:03,120
You didn't report it.
225
00:11:04,205 --> 00:11:05,623
We also didn't go.
226
00:11:05,665 --> 00:11:07,333
As Dollar Bill said.
227
00:11:07,375 --> 00:11:08,793
Because your feelings
ran so deep
228
00:11:08,834 --> 00:11:10,294
you couldn't
bear passing in person?
229
00:11:10,336 --> 00:11:12,421
You knew if you looked upon him
you would submit.
230
00:11:12,463 --> 00:11:14,465
Is that right?
231
00:11:16,008 --> 00:11:19,178
-Sounds right.
-I said it, so, yeah.
232
00:11:20,596 --> 00:11:21,972
It is.
233
00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:27,770
But we didn't go.
234
00:11:27,812 --> 00:11:30,147
We're not the bad guys here.
235
00:11:30,189 --> 00:11:32,358
Nope. You're not.
236
00:11:34,819 --> 00:11:36,028
But so what?
237
00:11:36,070 --> 00:11:38,864
Good guys, good earners.
Go join a 4H club.
238
00:11:38,906 --> 00:11:41,242
I'll find more.
You're both fired.
239
00:11:42,326 --> 00:11:43,661
What the fuck?
240
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:45,496
These emotions you have
can be played in ways
241
00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:46,872
you aren't even
gonna be aware of.
242
00:11:46,914 --> 00:11:50,251
You're a risk to me.
Or were. Goodbye.
243
00:12:16,819 --> 00:12:20,322
You understand why Prince
had to let Ben Kim and Tuk go.
244
00:12:20,364 --> 00:12:22,742
I understood what the man said.
245
00:12:22,783 --> 00:12:24,201
Is that how you
would have handled it?
246
00:12:24,243 --> 00:12:25,411
I don't know,
247
00:12:25,453 --> 00:12:26,996
but I saw the logic
of it instantly.
248
00:12:27,955 --> 00:12:29,415
Do you ever disagree?
249
00:12:30,374 --> 00:12:31,542
If you do,
does he listen?
250
00:12:31,584 --> 00:12:33,127
We communicate all day long
251
00:12:33,169 --> 00:12:34,420
in ways verbal
and otherwise.
252
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:35,713
He knows where I stand.
253
00:12:35,755 --> 00:12:37,548
And that'll carry over
to Washington?
254
00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:39,467
-That's the plan.
-You're good with that?
255
00:12:39,508 --> 00:12:41,552
You see him in the chair?
256
00:12:41,594 --> 00:12:43,053
You have doubts?
257
00:12:43,095 --> 00:12:46,140
No. I just like him here,
steering this big boy of a ship.
258
00:12:46,182 --> 00:12:48,350
You will still feel his
steady hand on the rudder
259
00:12:48,392 --> 00:12:51,395
whenever you fear
you might lose control of it.
260
00:12:51,437 --> 00:12:52,646
But you won't need that.
261
00:12:52,688 --> 00:12:54,648
By then, you will be
fully ready.
262
00:12:55,524 --> 00:12:56,901
Yes, sir.
263
00:12:57,902 --> 00:12:59,111
That's how you feel, isn't it?
264
00:12:59,153 --> 00:13:00,654
Solid with all this right now?
265
00:13:00,696 --> 00:13:02,823
As a slab
of Carrara marble, Unc.
266
00:13:02,865 --> 00:13:05,034
And you can get done
what you need to
267
00:13:05,075 --> 00:13:06,827
with the personnel left
at your disposal?
268
00:13:06,869 --> 00:13:08,162
Not a problem.
269
00:13:08,204 --> 00:13:09,580
Good.
270
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:16,629
[scoffs]
271
00:13:16,670 --> 00:13:18,714
[Prince] Sadly,
your move to hire back
272
00:13:18,756 --> 00:13:20,674
your people out
from under me failed,
273
00:13:20,716 --> 00:13:22,510
like nearly everything
you've tried lately.
274
00:13:22,551 --> 00:13:25,221
Not everything, Mike, huh?
275
00:13:29,141 --> 00:13:30,559
Where you headed?
276
00:13:31,977 --> 00:13:33,437
Call me for the next
campaign event.
277
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:35,314
I'll live up
to my end of the agreement.
278
00:13:35,356 --> 00:13:37,441
Till then, I'll be
bouldering in the 'Gunks.
279
00:13:37,483 --> 00:13:39,193
With Derek?
280
00:13:40,694 --> 00:13:42,404
Now you're not talking?
281
00:13:43,489 --> 00:13:45,199
Don't, Mike.
282
00:13:45,241 --> 00:13:47,201
We're don't ask,
don't tell again?
283
00:13:47,243 --> 00:13:49,662
We agreed to pause the
arrangement during the campaign.
284
00:13:49,703 --> 00:13:53,374
That agreement got overridden
by certain other actions.
285
00:13:55,459 --> 00:13:57,294
Tell me I'm wrong.
286
00:13:58,295 --> 00:14:00,506
This can be used against me.
287
00:14:00,548 --> 00:14:02,299
It has been.
288
00:14:02,341 --> 00:14:05,635
Which raises the question
of who did what first?
289
00:14:06,762 --> 00:14:08,764
Not a question
I'm interested in.
290
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,100
So I'm going off the grid.
291
00:14:11,141 --> 00:14:13,853
Nothing will be known,
nothing will be raised,
292
00:14:13,894 --> 00:14:16,272
nothing will be written.
293
00:14:16,313 --> 00:14:18,274
I'm just gonna go do my thing,
294
00:14:18,315 --> 00:14:20,901
while you continue to do yours.
295
00:14:21,777 --> 00:14:23,153
As always.
296
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,580
Derek sent a picture.
297
00:14:34,123 --> 00:14:35,583
Big rocks.
298
00:14:35,624 --> 00:14:37,626
Don't get too excited.
299
00:14:37,668 --> 00:14:39,295
I kept my focus on business.
300
00:14:39,336 --> 00:14:41,297
There's a matter
I need to read you in on.
301
00:14:41,338 --> 00:14:44,967
But first, did you handle
the prior matter? Winston?
302
00:14:48,053 --> 00:14:50,890
"Bring me my Bow
of burning gold:
303
00:14:52,016 --> 00:14:55,019
Bring me my Arrows of desire:
304
00:14:55,060 --> 00:14:57,354
Bring me my Spear:
305
00:14:57,396 --> 00:14:59,648
O clouds unfold!
306
00:14:59,690 --> 00:15:03,027
Bring me my Chariot of fire!"
307
00:15:04,153 --> 00:15:06,614
Do I need a bow,
a spear, a chariot?
308
00:15:06,655 --> 00:15:10,242
Nay, we just need
your algorithm.
309
00:15:10,284 --> 00:15:14,580
You know, ChatGPT-4 can adjust
the tone of the words it uses
310
00:15:14,622 --> 00:15:16,707
to meet the vernacular
of the questioner.
311
00:15:16,749 --> 00:15:18,667
Some humans can do same.
312
00:15:18,709 --> 00:15:20,419
Let me try.
313
00:15:20,461 --> 00:15:23,130
Reviewing contents
of entire Internet.
314
00:15:23,172 --> 00:15:25,591
Matching your inane
turn of phrase.
315
00:15:25,633 --> 00:15:27,843
And, yes, locked in.
316
00:15:27,885 --> 00:15:29,595
Let's try this:
317
00:15:29,637 --> 00:15:31,722
"So you ride yourselves
over the fields
318
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:34,516
and you make
all your animal deals,
319
00:15:34,558 --> 00:15:37,937
and your wise men
don't know how it feels
320
00:15:37,978 --> 00:15:40,522
to be thick as a brick."
321
00:15:41,273 --> 00:15:42,524
Yeah, that works.
322
00:15:42,566 --> 00:15:44,568
Ah, the Tull.
323
00:15:44,610 --> 00:15:47,613
Love it, love it, loave it.
324
00:15:47,655 --> 00:15:49,698
Thick as a brick.
325
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:51,325
Hard no on that.
326
00:15:51,367 --> 00:15:53,077
I can set an after-school
playdate for you two
327
00:15:53,118 --> 00:15:54,995
to continue along these
engaging lines, but first--
328
00:15:55,037 --> 00:15:57,039
What I'm pointing out
is he must be thick as a brick
329
00:15:57,081 --> 00:16:00,376
to ask for what he and you
and this place already have:
330
00:16:00,417 --> 00:16:01,543
my algo.
331
00:16:01,585 --> 00:16:02,711
No, I got it,
332
00:16:02,753 --> 00:16:04,254
but what we need
specifically
333
00:16:04,296 --> 00:16:07,424
is for you to reset
the parameters on the risk algo.
334
00:16:07,466 --> 00:16:10,260
Dial back profit
as prime objective temporarily
335
00:16:10,302 --> 00:16:12,221
in order to really
protect downside.
336
00:16:12,262 --> 00:16:15,224
Yeah, that kind of adjustment
is not in the deal.
337
00:16:15,265 --> 00:16:18,143
The spirit of the arrangement
we made, Winston, should--
338
00:16:18,185 --> 00:16:19,728
I'm more
a "letter of the contract"
339
00:16:19,770 --> 00:16:21,438
sort of guy, you know?
So...
340
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,609
"The letter killeth,
but the spirit giveth life."
341
00:16:25,651 --> 00:16:29,321
That's some New Testament shit,
you hear me?
342
00:16:29,363 --> 00:16:30,864
I see it like this.
343
00:16:30,906 --> 00:16:33,200
I could remind you of
all the various and sundry ways
344
00:16:33,242 --> 00:16:35,035
that I could ruin your life.
345
00:16:35,077 --> 00:16:37,246
Or I could treat you
like a valued,
346
00:16:37,287 --> 00:16:40,540
important and brilliant
member of the team,
347
00:16:40,582 --> 00:16:42,084
being asked to roll up
the sleeves.
348
00:16:42,126 --> 00:16:43,876
It's not about
the work it'll take.
349
00:16:43,919 --> 00:16:46,547
That's fine. I'm Wozniak on
'roids up in this motherfucker.
350
00:16:46,587 --> 00:16:49,133
Nope. It's about ego.
351
00:16:49,174 --> 00:16:50,384
You just said that.
352
00:16:50,425 --> 00:16:52,635
Ego, which translates
into dollars.
353
00:16:52,678 --> 00:16:54,722
The whole thing is,
I am in the process
354
00:16:54,762 --> 00:16:56,265
of careering
off of this algorithm,
355
00:16:56,306 --> 00:16:57,683
and for that to be the case,
356
00:16:57,725 --> 00:16:59,226
I need it to be
a money-making machine.
357
00:16:59,268 --> 00:17:01,145
-Which it is.
-I get it.
358
00:17:01,186 --> 00:17:03,439
So, what dollar figure
would you attach
359
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,107
to the sublimation of that ego
360
00:17:05,149 --> 00:17:08,610
in order for us to get
what we need right now?
361
00:17:08,652 --> 00:17:11,822
It's a seven-figure number
that starts with "Oh, shit!"
362
00:17:11,864 --> 00:17:13,866
That'll be fine.
363
00:17:13,907 --> 00:17:16,744
Get started today. Now.
364
00:17:16,785 --> 00:17:18,495
We have a time frame.
365
00:17:18,537 --> 00:17:20,330
It's right fucking now.
366
00:17:20,372 --> 00:17:21,915
That's not what I'm here
to walk through.
367
00:17:21,957 --> 00:17:24,835
Well, can it wait?
Today is about the money first.
368
00:17:24,877 --> 00:17:26,837
This is about the money.
369
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:29,715
I expected Chuck
would be strategizing
370
00:17:29,757 --> 00:17:31,091
with former Axe Cappers.
371
00:17:31,133 --> 00:17:32,301
Didn't know where else
372
00:17:32,342 --> 00:17:33,677
the radar blip would come from,
373
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:35,137
but I was ready.
374
00:17:39,725 --> 00:17:42,436
Based on the binder Chuck
has so graciously provided,
375
00:17:42,478 --> 00:17:45,481
we have a pretty good overview
of Prince's private holdings.
376
00:17:45,522 --> 00:17:48,400
Now this brain trust
can lay out an attack plan.
377
00:17:48,442 --> 00:17:51,028
Best targets in my opinion
are the restaurant group,
378
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:53,489
the meat-processing plants,
clothing chains,
379
00:17:53,530 --> 00:17:55,157
and auto parts manufacturers.
380
00:17:55,199 --> 00:17:56,617
Hey, do you mind if I burn one?
381
00:17:56,658 --> 00:17:57,826
Uh, I do mind.
382
00:17:57,868 --> 00:18:00,704
Whomsoever ordered these, whoa.
383
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,998
Well, it's Kensington Deli,
so...
384
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,126
Hey, let's lay out
how to attack this shit.
385
00:18:06,168 --> 00:18:08,087
All are vulnerable
to misinformation,
386
00:18:08,128 --> 00:18:10,631
disinformation,
false information,
387
00:18:10,672 --> 00:18:13,634
all designed to drive
the enterprise value down.
388
00:18:13,675 --> 00:18:16,970
Once the balance sheets start
to wobble, it just gets easier.
389
00:18:17,012 --> 00:18:18,847
There's also
sabotage from within.
390
00:18:18,889 --> 00:18:22,267
Infiltrate personnel in
to encourage internal conflict.
391
00:18:22,309 --> 00:18:24,311
Disputes among
the management team.
392
00:18:24,353 --> 00:18:26,313
Create divisions
between employees.
393
00:18:26,355 --> 00:18:28,023
Foster a toxic
work environment.
394
00:18:28,065 --> 00:18:29,733
I, for one, know how
debilitating that can be.
395
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:32,027
It really does lead
to decreased productivity
396
00:18:32,069 --> 00:18:33,403
and a weakened company culture.
397
00:18:33,445 --> 00:18:34,780
You sure I can't burn one?
398
00:18:34,822 --> 00:18:36,323
I'll blow the smoke
out of the window.
399
00:18:36,365 --> 00:18:38,117
It makes my synapses
fire faster.
400
00:18:39,993 --> 00:18:41,662
I know that's not
what it typically does,
401
00:18:41,703 --> 00:18:45,207
but my doctor says I have
a paradoxical reaction to weed.
402
00:18:45,249 --> 00:18:46,917
Your doctor says that?
403
00:18:46,959 --> 00:18:48,961
I mean, she's not
technically a doctor.
404
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:50,295
More of a spirit walker.
405
00:18:50,337 --> 00:18:51,672
Answer's still no.
406
00:18:51,713 --> 00:18:54,383
There are also
poison pill strategies.
407
00:18:54,424 --> 00:18:57,386
Clandestinely encourage
unethical business practices.
408
00:18:57,427 --> 00:18:59,179
-Bribery, you mean?
-Sure.
409
00:18:59,221 --> 00:19:00,722
If you want
to get earthy about it.
410
00:19:00,764 --> 00:19:03,267
Which you fellas could then
investigate and announce.
411
00:19:03,308 --> 00:19:05,519
[Bach]
And legal entanglements.
412
00:19:05,561 --> 00:19:08,147
Lawsuits designed
to tie up their resources
413
00:19:08,188 --> 00:19:09,606
in lengthy battles
that distract them
414
00:19:09,648 --> 00:19:11,775
from their core
business operations.
415
00:19:18,198 --> 00:19:20,450
Amanda, you have
a grand jury suit?
416
00:19:20,492 --> 00:19:23,287
'Cause you're gonna need it.
Lots of appearances coming up.
417
00:19:23,328 --> 00:19:26,248
We've stumbled upon a whole
bunch of dirty companies,
418
00:19:26,290 --> 00:19:27,624
as you see.
419
00:19:27,666 --> 00:19:31,170
You're going to probably need
more than one.
420
00:19:31,211 --> 00:19:32,629
Try something
without stripes.
421
00:19:32,671 --> 00:19:34,923
-They moiré.
-[Chuck] And get it quick.
422
00:19:34,965 --> 00:19:37,676
Grand jury's open,
and we're going with a long list
423
00:19:37,718 --> 00:19:39,178
of charges
against these companies.
424
00:19:39,219 --> 00:19:40,429
We expect indictments.
425
00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:41,805
You want me to suit up
426
00:19:41,847 --> 00:19:43,599
for something
we're six months away on?
427
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,392
[Chuck]
Six months? No.
428
00:19:45,434 --> 00:19:46,935
We're announcing these
investigations
429
00:19:46,977 --> 00:19:48,812
and coming charges tomorrow.
430
00:19:50,230 --> 00:19:52,357
All of these companies
are owned by Michael Prince,
431
00:19:52,399 --> 00:19:53,650
or his subsidiaries.
432
00:19:53,692 --> 00:19:54,985
Mm, that's right.
433
00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:57,029
We hurt the companies,
and we hurt Prince.
434
00:19:57,070 --> 00:19:58,906
-Badly.
-Tag the companies as bad.
435
00:19:58,947 --> 00:20:00,282
Ruin them without knowing
436
00:20:00,324 --> 00:20:01,742
if anything criminal
actually happened.
437
00:20:01,783 --> 00:20:04,411
Do the investigation
after the fact.
438
00:20:04,453 --> 00:20:07,331
I plan on using the power
of this office to its fullest,
439
00:20:07,372 --> 00:20:08,832
and I expect you
to do the same.
440
00:20:08,874 --> 00:20:11,084
Otherwise
it is wasted on you,
441
00:20:11,126 --> 00:20:13,879
and will be given to someone
not so easily offended.
442
00:20:13,921 --> 00:20:16,423
You don't see me
clutching my pearls.
443
00:20:16,465 --> 00:20:17,925
I don't even own any.
444
00:20:17,966 --> 00:20:20,260
Guys, there is
an order to things.
445
00:20:20,302 --> 00:20:23,972
Learn of a crime, investigate,
confirm, announce,
446
00:20:24,014 --> 00:20:27,059
so that only companies
that are bad actors are hurt.
447
00:20:27,100 --> 00:20:29,645
And I assure you
we will find crimes.
448
00:20:29,686 --> 00:20:32,481
Fruit of a poison tree
called Michael Prince.
449
00:20:34,524 --> 00:20:35,901
You're okay with this?
450
00:20:35,943 --> 00:20:37,486
We have enough to start.
451
00:20:37,527 --> 00:20:40,364
And I will slumber
like a wee babe tonight.
452
00:20:41,782 --> 00:20:43,158
While I will sleep as always:
453
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,244
deeply, but only 20 minutes
at a time.
454
00:20:45,285 --> 00:20:48,580
But, yes,
free of moral paroxysms.
455
00:20:50,332 --> 00:20:53,335
There are thousands of employees
at these companies.
456
00:20:53,377 --> 00:20:56,171
Working people who will not be
once we start this.
457
00:20:56,213 --> 00:20:58,882
When one man rises
to this level of threat,
458
00:20:58,924 --> 00:21:01,551
that is the way the system
must be used.
459
00:21:06,556 --> 00:21:08,058
You're not in law school
anymore.
460
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,726
This is the show.
461
00:21:10,852 --> 00:21:12,729
So you have two choices,
Miss Torre.
462
00:21:12,771 --> 00:21:14,606
You can do your job
and write the briefs
463
00:21:14,648 --> 00:21:17,651
and stand with us as we announce
these investigations tomorrow,
464
00:21:17,693 --> 00:21:20,279
or be complicit.
465
00:21:45,387 --> 00:21:48,056
Is it just us, or are we
waiting for the Third Man?
466
00:21:48,974 --> 00:21:51,310
You can almost hear
the footsteps.
467
00:21:51,351 --> 00:21:55,147
What you said.
About Chuck showing who he is.
468
00:21:55,188 --> 00:21:56,690
It fucking happened.
469
00:21:56,732 --> 00:21:57,941
Tell me.
470
00:21:57,983 --> 00:21:59,234
The three of them.
471
00:21:59,276 --> 00:22:00,610
Him and Ira and Allerd,
472
00:22:00,652 --> 00:22:02,654
they all line up together
and expect what from me?
473
00:22:02,696 --> 00:22:04,072
Obedience? Fealty?
474
00:22:04,114 --> 00:22:06,283
I need the thing, not your
feelings about the thing.
475
00:22:06,325 --> 00:22:08,577
He's got a list of Prince's
private companies.
476
00:22:08,618 --> 00:22:10,245
Investigations
to be announced tomorrow.
477
00:22:10,287 --> 00:22:11,496
There's nothing there.
478
00:22:11,538 --> 00:22:12,914
I may not be voting
for your boss,
479
00:22:12,956 --> 00:22:14,541
but he's as far from a crime
480
00:22:14,583 --> 00:22:17,252
as I am from starring
in a Black Swan remake.
481
00:22:17,294 --> 00:22:18,795
Don't have the dance moves?
482
00:22:18,837 --> 00:22:20,881
My jeté is for shit.
483
00:22:21,757 --> 00:22:24,051
The targets.
And how targeted.
484
00:22:27,596 --> 00:22:28,680
Wow.
485
00:22:28,722 --> 00:22:30,057
I can't stop
these investigations,
486
00:22:30,098 --> 00:22:31,475
or the announcements
that are coming.
487
00:22:31,516 --> 00:22:33,435
I can't stop him.
488
00:22:33,477 --> 00:22:36,438
But I can at least knock the
intended victim out of the way.
489
00:22:49,493 --> 00:22:52,871
So, yeah, I have a source
and some documentation.
490
00:22:52,913 --> 00:22:55,123
I know how Chuck
is gonna attack, and where.
491
00:22:55,165 --> 00:22:58,251
Who's the source?
How close? How good? And who?
492
00:22:58,293 --> 00:22:59,836
Close. All I can say.
493
00:22:59,878 --> 00:23:01,421
Without the specific name,
494
00:23:01,463 --> 00:23:03,548
it's hard for me to put
confidence in the information.
495
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:05,217
I understand
what you're thinking--
496
00:23:05,258 --> 00:23:07,260
that Chuck might want you
to know he's investigating
497
00:23:07,302 --> 00:23:09,137
to induce a reaction,
but I can't tell you.
498
00:23:09,179 --> 00:23:10,597
For the source's sake.
499
00:23:10,639 --> 00:23:13,517
Nice of you to protect
Amanda Torre from SDNY.
500
00:23:15,310 --> 00:23:16,770
Shit.
501
00:23:16,812 --> 00:23:19,481
So those footsteps.
I wasn't just hearing things.
502
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:23,360
Smart. Trust no one.
503
00:23:23,402 --> 00:23:25,487
I don't even know
who they're tracking or when.
504
00:23:25,529 --> 00:23:27,030
I just look
at what they send me.
505
00:23:27,072 --> 00:23:29,074
It's that same prudence
that makes me suggest
506
00:23:29,116 --> 00:23:32,369
you sell out your positions
even in these private companies.
507
00:23:32,411 --> 00:23:34,162
All your private
equity positions.
508
00:23:34,204 --> 00:23:35,497
Unless he wants us to do that.
509
00:23:35,539 --> 00:23:37,082
Unless that won't be enough.
510
00:23:37,124 --> 00:23:39,918
It all depends on how many steps
from the idiot he thinks I am,
511
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,587
and he presumes
I think he is.
512
00:23:42,629 --> 00:23:44,506
[cell phone vibrates]
513
00:23:44,548 --> 00:23:45,799
I-I need a whiteboard.
514
00:23:45,841 --> 00:23:47,634
Dunlop just texted me, Mike.
515
00:23:47,676 --> 00:23:49,261
She needs to push your dinner.
516
00:23:49,302 --> 00:23:51,847
-Tomorrow?
-"Heading back home.
517
00:23:51,888 --> 00:23:53,974
Next trip should be soon."
518
00:24:02,649 --> 00:24:04,067
Herbert Yardley.
Know the name?
519
00:24:04,109 --> 00:24:05,485
WWII codebreaker.
520
00:24:05,527 --> 00:24:10,240
And wrote the first
great poker strategy book.
521
00:24:10,282 --> 00:24:13,243
In it, he kind of invents
game theory.
522
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:15,996
Now the example we use to figure
this out is the quarterback,
523
00:24:16,037 --> 00:24:18,290
because in order
to defend against him,
524
00:24:18,331 --> 00:24:21,460
you need to figure out
how many steps removed
525
00:24:21,501 --> 00:24:23,295
from the idiot he is.
526
00:24:23,336 --> 00:24:26,381
An idiot quarterback
looks directly
527
00:24:26,423 --> 00:24:28,425
at the man he throws to.
528
00:24:28,467 --> 00:24:31,219
Now, what do you do if you're
the middle linebacker, Kate?
529
00:24:31,261 --> 00:24:33,930
Jump into the path of the ball,
just go where he's looking
530
00:24:33,972 --> 00:24:35,307
and intercept the pass.
531
00:24:35,348 --> 00:24:36,725
And if he's one step removed,
532
00:24:36,766 --> 00:24:41,188
if he looks left
but throws right each time.
533
00:24:41,229 --> 00:24:43,523
-Also easy to defend.
-[Luke] Sure.
534
00:24:43,565 --> 00:24:45,942
You go to the opposite of his
eyes and intercept the pass.
535
00:24:45,984 --> 00:24:47,402
But-- and this
is where the idea
536
00:24:47,444 --> 00:24:49,946
of un-exploitable play
comes from--
537
00:24:49,988 --> 00:24:51,781
if he knows you're running
this thought process,
538
00:24:51,823 --> 00:24:54,659
he can figure how many steps
removed you think he is,
539
00:24:54,701 --> 00:24:58,121
and he can go eight
or nine steps further out.
540
00:24:58,163 --> 00:25:01,333
Chuck is going to announce
an investigation...
541
00:25:02,250 --> 00:25:03,376
so I sell.
542
00:25:03,418 --> 00:25:06,880
But he wants me to know,
so I don't sell.
543
00:25:08,173 --> 00:25:10,383
But he knows I know,
544
00:25:10,425 --> 00:25:12,719
so he doesn't really
want me to sell.
545
00:25:12,761 --> 00:25:14,513
On and on.
546
00:25:17,224 --> 00:25:19,059
Now the question is,
547
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:21,561
how many degrees from the idiot
does he think I am?
548
00:25:21,603 --> 00:25:23,438
How many is he?
549
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,649
That's what I need
to figure, right?
550
00:25:27,609 --> 00:25:29,110
No.
551
00:25:29,152 --> 00:25:31,112
[laughs]
552
00:25:32,405 --> 00:25:34,366
Good. Good.
553
00:25:34,407 --> 00:25:36,993
That's what he wants me
spending my time on.
554
00:25:37,035 --> 00:25:40,163
Sorting out the financial attack
he and Axe are planning.
555
00:25:40,205 --> 00:25:42,666
He wants all my focus
on that flank,
556
00:25:42,707 --> 00:25:45,418
ignoring the front where the war
is really taking place.
557
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:49,339
Shoot.
Get back to Dunlop.
558
00:25:49,381 --> 00:25:50,799
Tell her to be
at my house tonight
559
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,551
after whatever she's doing.
560
00:25:52,592 --> 00:25:54,261
Demand it.
561
00:25:54,302 --> 00:25:57,597
She doesn't leave the isle
of Manhattan before we meet.
562
00:25:58,640 --> 00:25:59,975
That's what you counted on.
563
00:26:00,016 --> 00:26:02,185
Getting me all caught up
in your frontal attack
564
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:03,895
so I'd miss the real play:
565
00:26:03,937 --> 00:26:06,481
winning Governor Dunlop
and her support.
566
00:26:06,523 --> 00:26:07,816
-Huh.
-But you see,
567
00:26:07,857 --> 00:26:10,819
I remembered what was most
important to me:
568
00:26:10,860 --> 00:26:13,488
the presidency,
and how to get there.
569
00:26:13,530 --> 00:26:16,199
I think you know she hasn't
made her announcement yet.
570
00:26:16,241 --> 00:26:19,494
No, but I think I know
what it's gonna be.
571
00:26:19,536 --> 00:26:20,912
Do you?
572
00:26:20,954 --> 00:26:23,456
Well, then you should know
what I did yesterday, Mike.
573
00:26:37,512 --> 00:26:39,973
So this is where
the magic happens.
574
00:26:40,015 --> 00:26:43,602
Never could make the elephant
disappear when it came to you.
575
00:26:43,643 --> 00:26:45,312
But yeah,
this is the place.
576
00:26:45,353 --> 00:26:48,148
Though as you know,
the usual weapons of this office
577
00:26:48,189 --> 00:26:52,235
are also coming up short
against Prince.
578
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,280
All right, well,
let's get into it.
579
00:26:56,448 --> 00:26:57,657
Do your thing, Wend.
580
00:26:57,699 --> 00:26:59,951
We're dealing with an ambitious,
581
00:26:59,993 --> 00:27:02,329
competitive, confident,
582
00:27:02,370 --> 00:27:05,832
charismatic, socially conscious
strategic thinker
583
00:27:05,874 --> 00:27:08,960
with high emotional intelligence
and deep resources.
584
00:27:09,002 --> 00:27:10,378
Jeez, it's a wonder
I even thought
585
00:27:10,420 --> 00:27:11,880
to come back for this fight.
586
00:27:11,921 --> 00:27:13,673
Or even why I get out of bed
in the morning.
587
00:27:13,715 --> 00:27:15,550
[Wendy]
But he's morally complex,
588
00:27:15,592 --> 00:27:18,011
which means he likes to think
he's more ethical
589
00:27:18,053 --> 00:27:19,471
than those around him.
590
00:27:19,512 --> 00:27:21,056
And he is not immune
from engaging
591
00:27:21,097 --> 00:27:22,849
in questionable tactics
to achieve his goals.
592
00:27:22,891 --> 00:27:26,478
That is a slippery slope,
and one place he can be hit.
593
00:27:26,519 --> 00:27:30,523
And he believes in his own
infallibility above all else.
594
00:27:31,274 --> 00:27:32,609
Something you fell prey to
595
00:27:32,651 --> 00:27:34,069
that last time you tangled
with the man.
596
00:27:34,110 --> 00:27:36,613
I thought my play
was un-exploitable.
597
00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:39,616
Until you found out that any
approach can be exploited
598
00:27:39,658 --> 00:27:41,076
if it becomes known.
599
00:27:42,243 --> 00:27:44,371
He's going to cash
with everything.
600
00:27:44,412 --> 00:27:45,955
Whole Street's
talking about it.
601
00:27:45,997 --> 00:27:47,749
It's untenable.
602
00:27:47,791 --> 00:27:49,709
He's probably looking
for some sort of hard reset
603
00:27:49,751 --> 00:27:52,087
to make sure we're not already
in his holdings.
604
00:27:52,128 --> 00:27:53,838
He'll have to buy back in fast.
605
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,258
Nobody wants to pay him
two and twenty to sit in cash.
606
00:27:57,300 --> 00:27:58,635
How long does he have?
607
00:27:58,677 --> 00:28:00,345
A few days, max.
608
00:28:00,387 --> 00:28:02,972
He'll try to massage
his investors, his employees,
609
00:28:03,014 --> 00:28:04,432
but he smells the attack.
610
00:28:04,474 --> 00:28:05,809
He knows we want to hurt him.
611
00:28:05,850 --> 00:28:07,644
Hurt? No. Annihilate.
612
00:28:07,686 --> 00:28:10,355
Send his holdings up
in a mushroom cloud.
613
00:28:10,397 --> 00:28:11,481
[scoffs]
614
00:28:11,523 --> 00:28:13,024
You got a way
to separate his cash
615
00:28:13,066 --> 00:28:14,609
from all the people
that work there for him
616
00:28:14,651 --> 00:28:16,611
before you A-bomb his shit?
617
00:28:16,653 --> 00:28:18,947
You know, the ones you told me
you couldn't abandon
618
00:28:18,988 --> 00:28:20,407
and had to protect,
619
00:28:20,448 --> 00:28:22,117
so staying in London
was out for you.
620
00:28:22,158 --> 00:28:24,452
Those people?
621
00:28:28,331 --> 00:28:29,457
There is no way.
622
00:28:29,499 --> 00:28:31,960
Price of doing business here.
623
00:28:32,752 --> 00:28:34,921
So who wins when Prince loses?
624
00:28:36,297 --> 00:28:37,757
The country.
625
00:28:37,799 --> 00:28:39,008
The world.
626
00:28:39,050 --> 00:28:41,261
Like it, don't love it.
627
00:28:41,302 --> 00:28:42,721
[sighs]
628
00:28:42,762 --> 00:28:44,973
All right,
let's shift venues
629
00:28:45,014 --> 00:28:47,726
before your staff come
into work and clock I'm here.
630
00:28:47,767 --> 00:28:49,561
You need someplace
to work out of?
631
00:28:49,602 --> 00:28:51,438
I'm covered, Charles.
632
00:29:02,741 --> 00:29:05,493
Uh, yeah,
I'd say you're covered.
633
00:29:05,535 --> 00:29:06,953
It'll do for now.
634
00:29:06,995 --> 00:29:09,330
Still have my eye on a different
space for the long haul.
635
00:29:09,372 --> 00:29:10,707
Sure.
636
00:29:12,709 --> 00:29:13,835
Strength report.
637
00:29:13,877 --> 00:29:15,170
I think, from what I know,
638
00:29:15,211 --> 00:29:16,838
Prince is gonna try
to lock up Dunlop.
639
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,089
But she's not easy.
640
00:29:18,131 --> 00:29:19,299
We have to set it up
641
00:29:19,340 --> 00:29:20,550
so she does what we want.
642
00:29:20,592 --> 00:29:22,510
Bobby, you need to reach Dunlop.
643
00:29:22,552 --> 00:29:23,970
Offer her whatever you can.
644
00:29:24,012 --> 00:29:25,722
Make sure she doesn't do
the wrong thing.
645
00:29:25,764 --> 00:29:28,516
And what is the overall plan
at the moment?
646
00:29:28,558 --> 00:29:31,019
Bankrupt Prince,
drain the portfolio,
647
00:29:31,060 --> 00:29:32,771
use whatever we know
about the man
648
00:29:32,812 --> 00:29:35,023
and can glean
to set it up.
649
00:29:35,064 --> 00:29:37,692
You do know-- He does know
our money's in there too?
650
00:29:37,734 --> 00:29:39,778
Like I told them:
Like it, don't love it.
651
00:29:39,819 --> 00:29:42,572
Pitched Dollar Bill and Victor.
Pass from each.
652
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:43,948
They love you, but...
653
00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:45,241
That's the smart move.
654
00:29:45,283 --> 00:29:46,868
Their money's
holding them hostage.
655
00:29:46,910 --> 00:29:49,204
Most people aren't crazy
like you, Taylor.
656
00:29:49,245 --> 00:29:50,789
-And Ben and Tuk?
-Too emotional for them.
657
00:29:50,830 --> 00:29:52,207
The whole thing.
They wouldn't meet.
658
00:29:52,248 --> 00:29:53,666
They knew if they saw me,
especially you,
659
00:29:53,708 --> 00:29:55,794
they'd just go in for a hug
and never let go.
660
00:29:55,835 --> 00:29:58,463
Dumb move.
They'll be canned by now.
661
00:29:58,505 --> 00:30:01,007
You may be aware
that the guillotine
662
00:30:01,049 --> 00:30:03,718
was originally conceived
and fashioned
663
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,095
by Dr. Joseph-Ignace Guillotin
664
00:30:06,137 --> 00:30:09,140
as a more humane means
of execution.
665
00:30:09,182 --> 00:30:10,642
Unaware.
666
00:30:10,683 --> 00:30:13,520
But since we've already been
decapitated, sans the humanity--
667
00:30:13,561 --> 00:30:16,397
Lightning quick.
668
00:30:16,439 --> 00:30:19,901
Less likely to be botched
than steel or scimitar.
669
00:30:19,943 --> 00:30:21,569
So, no severance package?
670
00:30:25,073 --> 00:30:26,366
So, yes severance package?
671
00:30:26,407 --> 00:30:30,161
Consider the mouton
to have fallen.
672
00:30:30,203 --> 00:30:32,247
Detailed data sheets
673
00:30:32,288 --> 00:30:34,374
of every farthing
you have tied up in this fund.
674
00:30:34,415 --> 00:30:36,292
Also known
as what you stand to lose
675
00:30:36,334 --> 00:30:38,920
should you use or discuss
or otherwise bandy about
676
00:30:38,962 --> 00:30:40,588
anything you have learned
about trades
677
00:30:40,630 --> 00:30:42,215
and business practices here.
678
00:30:42,257 --> 00:30:44,300
You know we have
aggressive non-competes,
679
00:30:44,342 --> 00:30:45,635
unless you think
we're gonna bring
680
00:30:45,677 --> 00:30:47,804
our inside knowledge
to Starbucks.
681
00:30:47,846 --> 00:30:49,764
Only place on the Street
we can still work.
682
00:30:49,806 --> 00:30:52,392
You have aggressive
non-disparagement clauses too.
683
00:30:52,433 --> 00:30:55,103
Should you wind up
in said Starbucks,
684
00:30:55,144 --> 00:30:56,688
you had better be praising
Mike Prince
685
00:30:56,729 --> 00:30:57,981
for the chance to quaff
686
00:30:58,022 --> 00:31:01,109
their barely potable
breakfast blend.
687
00:31:03,570 --> 00:31:05,405
Key cards, please.
688
00:31:08,908 --> 00:31:10,952
And your Nimbus rings.
689
00:31:22,338 --> 00:31:24,632
Find out how long
their non-competes are.
690
00:31:25,967 --> 00:31:27,468
I've got to make
a call.
691
00:31:29,929 --> 00:31:31,973
See, I wasn't exactly
caught unawares
692
00:31:32,015 --> 00:31:34,183
by any of your
highlight reel plays.
693
00:31:34,225 --> 00:31:36,269
[over phone] Governor,
don't meet with Michael Prince
694
00:31:36,311 --> 00:31:37,645
until you sit with me.
695
00:31:37,687 --> 00:31:39,981
Mr. Axelrod,
are we sharing calendars now?
696
00:31:40,023 --> 00:31:41,983
What makes you think I'm
meeting with Michael Prince?
697
00:31:42,025 --> 00:31:43,776
You're the key piece.
698
00:31:43,818 --> 00:31:45,528
Anyone smart can see it.
699
00:31:45,570 --> 00:31:48,156
And Mike Prince, for all
his flaws, is at least that.
700
00:31:48,197 --> 00:31:50,074
We all know you're
in New York. Come on.
701
00:31:50,116 --> 00:31:52,994
[laughs]
All right, look,
702
00:31:53,036 --> 00:31:55,663
I took the call because
you're an influential man.
703
00:31:55,705 --> 00:31:57,707
I like that you get
straight to the punch.
704
00:31:57,749 --> 00:31:59,626
That's my style. So I will.
705
00:32:00,585 --> 00:32:02,378
Even if you max out
your contributions
706
00:32:02,420 --> 00:32:06,424
and get all your fancy friends
to do the same...
707
00:32:06,466 --> 00:32:09,677
not sure the association
is what I need right now.
708
00:32:11,012 --> 00:32:12,430
I'm no Wall Street fancy pants,
709
00:32:12,472 --> 00:32:14,390
so I don't see
how you can help.
710
00:32:14,432 --> 00:32:16,893
And I sure don't see
any value in meeting.
711
00:32:16,935 --> 00:32:18,937
Oh, I think there is.
712
00:32:18,978 --> 00:32:22,023
Whatever you have on
with Prince, cancel it.
713
00:32:22,065 --> 00:32:23,399
Postpone it at least,
714
00:32:23,441 --> 00:32:25,985
and then meet with me
so I can show you.
715
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:28,196
[sighs]
716
00:32:28,237 --> 00:32:31,282
La-da-da
Da-da-da
717
00:32:31,324 --> 00:32:33,785
-I'm gonna go check on the--
-Yeah, check on that.
718
00:32:38,164 --> 00:32:39,582
How we doing, guys?
719
00:32:39,624 --> 00:32:41,584
We're doing good, thanks.
720
00:32:41,626 --> 00:32:43,711
[Axe]
Fantastic, Tommy.
721
00:32:43,753 --> 00:32:45,505
I'm liking
this new red.
722
00:32:45,546 --> 00:32:47,048
It's a good one.
723
00:32:48,549 --> 00:32:51,386
-All right, enjoy, everybody.
-Thank you so much.
724
00:32:51,427 --> 00:32:53,179
Salut, gentlemen.
725
00:32:53,221 --> 00:32:54,597
Salut. Cheers.
726
00:32:54,639 --> 00:32:56,599
Salut. Enjoy your dinner.
727
00:32:59,185 --> 00:33:00,687
I don't impress easily,
728
00:33:00,728 --> 00:33:02,271
but Rao's?
729
00:33:02,313 --> 00:33:03,439
All alone?
730
00:33:03,481 --> 00:33:05,733
Yeah, well,
these are my people.
731
00:33:05,775 --> 00:33:07,193
It can't be that simple.
732
00:33:07,235 --> 00:33:09,821
I've been asked here before
by my biggest donors,
733
00:33:09,862 --> 00:33:12,824
richest people in the world
offering to bring me.
734
00:33:12,865 --> 00:33:14,701
But I was never in town
735
00:33:14,742 --> 00:33:16,661
on the third Tuesday
of the month,
736
00:33:16,703 --> 00:33:18,246
or whenever they had
their regular table.
737
00:33:18,287 --> 00:33:22,083
And, look,
you've got the whole place.
738
00:33:22,125 --> 00:33:24,252
Can't even imagine the cost.
739
00:33:24,293 --> 00:33:25,712
Nah. It ain't about that.
740
00:33:26,587 --> 00:33:28,006
Or net worth.
741
00:33:28,047 --> 00:33:29,173
You need to be a person.
742
00:33:29,215 --> 00:33:31,259
And have grip with Ron,
743
00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:33,594
and Frank Jr., Joe, Dino.
744
00:33:33,636 --> 00:33:35,555
They need to be your friends.
745
00:33:35,596 --> 00:33:37,682
Then you need to be sure
not to act like an asshole.
746
00:33:37,724 --> 00:33:38,975
[laughs]
747
00:33:39,017 --> 00:33:42,770
Oh, this is one hell
of a meatball. Good God.
748
00:33:42,812 --> 00:33:44,939
Well, that's the thing,
though, isn't it?
749
00:33:45,814 --> 00:33:47,608
Riding with me.
750
00:33:47,649 --> 00:33:48,984
What do they say?
751
00:33:49,026 --> 00:33:51,236
The one thing
you will never regret
752
00:33:51,279 --> 00:33:53,613
spending money or time on
753
00:33:53,656 --> 00:33:55,658
is a great experience.
754
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:58,077
A memorable time.
755
00:33:58,828 --> 00:34:00,163
That's what I provide.
756
00:34:00,204 --> 00:34:03,457
When I look at you,
I look at your appeal,
757
00:34:03,499 --> 00:34:04,625
your infrastructure.
758
00:34:04,667 --> 00:34:06,961
The memorable experience
I want to provide
759
00:34:07,003 --> 00:34:08,463
is a trip to the White House.
760
00:34:08,504 --> 00:34:11,006
That would be one hell
of a memorable one.
761
00:34:11,049 --> 00:34:12,759
Mm-hmm. Then work with me.
762
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,678
Respond to Prince
on your timeline, on mine,
763
00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:19,432
on the way we decide
to do together.
764
00:34:19,474 --> 00:34:20,933
And that's where this ends up.
765
00:34:20,975 --> 00:34:22,769
I'll put you
on top in the race,
766
00:34:22,810 --> 00:34:25,480
but you got to do it
the way I lay it out.
767
00:34:27,398 --> 00:34:30,943
This is one hell of
a meatball, like I said.
768
00:34:30,985 --> 00:34:36,115
But it's a long way from there
to the presidency.
769
00:34:36,699 --> 00:34:39,118
What kind of real guarantees
can you make me?
770
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,703
Well, that's a fair question.
771
00:34:40,745 --> 00:34:41,913
What's he offered?
772
00:34:41,954 --> 00:34:43,456
You asked me
to cancel the meeting,
773
00:34:43,498 --> 00:34:44,874
so I don't know
where he'll start.
774
00:34:44,916 --> 00:34:47,627
Probably cabinet positions.
775
00:34:47,668 --> 00:34:49,003
But we all know
where it'll end up.
776
00:34:49,045 --> 00:34:50,254
Then let me help you
777
00:34:50,296 --> 00:34:52,715
think through
all the ramifications.
778
00:34:54,383 --> 00:34:55,676
Axe, you're impressive.
779
00:34:55,718 --> 00:34:57,804
This is impressive.
780
00:34:57,845 --> 00:35:00,306
But this is something I've
worked my whole life for.
781
00:35:00,348 --> 00:35:03,893
Then don't barter that dream
to a guy so transactional
782
00:35:03,935 --> 00:35:06,437
he'll sell VP for your support.
783
00:35:06,479 --> 00:35:09,774
And the truth is, you shouldn't
even settle for that.
784
00:35:12,401 --> 00:35:13,861
Here we go.
785
00:35:13,903 --> 00:35:15,613
-Here's the veal parm.
-Thanks, Dino.
786
00:35:15,655 --> 00:35:17,156
-Enjoy.
-Thank you.
787
00:35:18,324 --> 00:35:20,326
So, aside from the best veal
in the city,
788
00:35:20,368 --> 00:35:22,495
what can you really offer me?
789
00:35:47,186 --> 00:35:48,604
You're really doing it.
790
00:35:50,314 --> 00:35:51,983
Vagabonding.
791
00:35:52,024 --> 00:35:54,193
Night flight
to the West Coast?
792
00:35:54,235 --> 00:35:56,487
Or are you going the other way,
Prague or Stockholm?
793
00:35:56,529 --> 00:35:57,738
Morocco, baby.
794
00:35:57,780 --> 00:35:59,657
Sheltering Sky time.
795
00:35:59,699 --> 00:36:01,492
Smoking kief.
796
00:36:01,534 --> 00:36:02,702
Do you smoke it?
797
00:36:02,743 --> 00:36:04,662
I don't know, do you?
Or chew it.
798
00:36:05,621 --> 00:36:07,582
Anyway, North Africa,
799
00:36:07,623 --> 00:36:09,125
then the Middle East,
800
00:36:09,167 --> 00:36:10,334
then I don't know where.
801
00:36:10,376 --> 00:36:11,919
Good choice. All of it.
802
00:36:11,961 --> 00:36:13,296
So, what's the plan?
803
00:36:13,337 --> 00:36:14,547
Go until the money runs out?
804
00:36:14,589 --> 00:36:15,965
Because I've checked
and saw how much
805
00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:17,800
you've slowly been
pulling out of the fund.
806
00:36:17,842 --> 00:36:20,678
-Unlike the rest of us.
-Yeah, pretty much.
807
00:36:20,720 --> 00:36:22,513
Time for something else.
808
00:36:22,555 --> 00:36:24,015
Maybe find myself some
809
00:36:24,056 --> 00:36:26,184
Kim Gordon-Thurston Moore
type heat,
810
00:36:26,225 --> 00:36:29,395
but with a better ending,
you know?
811
00:36:29,437 --> 00:36:31,939
Not gonna find that
at the firm.
812
00:36:31,981 --> 00:36:33,900
No, you're not.
813
00:36:35,067 --> 00:36:37,695
Wait, you're not here
to try to stop me?
814
00:36:38,654 --> 00:36:39,906
I'm glad you're going,
815
00:36:39,947 --> 00:36:41,240
but you left me that book.
816
00:36:41,282 --> 00:36:43,201
That was an invitation
to say goodbye.
817
00:36:45,161 --> 00:36:48,372
I can't hug you
with this backpack on.
818
00:36:51,876 --> 00:36:53,711
Thank you for bringing me in.
For teaching me.
819
00:36:53,753 --> 00:36:56,047
-I could have never--
-Shh.
820
00:37:17,985 --> 00:37:20,780
Two billionaires
want to take me to prom,
821
00:37:20,821 --> 00:37:23,783
and neither of them are getting
me jazzed about the after-party.
822
00:37:23,824 --> 00:37:25,701
-Uh-huh.
-So,
823
00:37:25,743 --> 00:37:27,703
ya-fucking-hoo to me.
824
00:37:27,745 --> 00:37:29,664
-[glasses clink]
-Well, I have to think
825
00:37:29,705 --> 00:37:32,416
if there was nothing that
Axe said worth considering,
826
00:37:32,458 --> 00:37:33,918
you wouldn't
have come to me.
827
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,836
Prince is too smooth.
828
00:37:35,878 --> 00:37:38,756
Too confident.
He's built different.
829
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,592
It's like he ate
the Great Man Theory
830
00:37:41,634 --> 00:37:42,760
and asked for seconds.
831
00:37:42,802 --> 00:37:45,429
[chuckles]
Well, no argument there.
832
00:37:45,471 --> 00:37:47,181
But I'm not seeing
enough evidence
833
00:37:47,223 --> 00:37:49,433
your guy is that different.
834
00:37:49,475 --> 00:37:50,851
Which is why I am here.
835
00:37:50,893 --> 00:37:53,187
And I am grateful you are,
Governor.
836
00:37:53,229 --> 00:37:54,730
I don't need gratitude.
837
00:37:56,274 --> 00:37:57,733
I need clarity.
838
00:37:59,986 --> 00:38:01,195
Clarity.
839
00:38:01,237 --> 00:38:02,571
Okay.
840
00:38:02,613 --> 00:38:07,410
Well, Bobby Axelrod
doesn't lie to himself.
841
00:38:08,452 --> 00:38:10,246
If he says he's gonna do
something monstrous,
842
00:38:10,288 --> 00:38:11,622
that's what he does.
843
00:38:11,664 --> 00:38:14,375
And that's what he is.
844
00:38:14,417 --> 00:38:15,918
A self-aware monster.
845
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,421
If he says we can get you
to the White House,
846
00:38:18,462 --> 00:38:19,964
it's not to serve his ego.
847
00:38:20,006 --> 00:38:22,091
It is simply the truth.
848
00:38:23,175 --> 00:38:24,552
Hmm.
849
00:38:24,593 --> 00:38:27,221
An honest cocky son of a bitch.
850
00:38:27,263 --> 00:38:29,348
And there's your difference.
851
00:38:29,390 --> 00:38:32,018
Axe has ego,
and doesn't pretend otherwise.
852
00:38:32,059 --> 00:38:35,771
Prince wants you to believe
he is the benevolent,
853
00:38:35,813 --> 00:38:38,149
humble servant
of the greater good.
854
00:38:38,190 --> 00:38:40,026
A selfless billionaire.
855
00:38:40,067 --> 00:38:41,736
Hmm. Sounds like a punch line.
856
00:38:41,777 --> 00:38:44,613
If success in politics
is the ability to seem sincere
857
00:38:44,655 --> 00:38:47,116
when no sincerity
actually exists,
858
00:38:47,158 --> 00:38:51,787
then Prince is
the ultimate politician.
859
00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:54,081
I hear what you're
telling me. I do.
860
00:38:54,123 --> 00:38:57,126
But see,
you just said it right there.
861
00:38:57,168 --> 00:38:59,420
One of them is in politics,
862
00:38:59,462 --> 00:39:00,755
and that's the game I'm in.
863
00:39:00,796 --> 00:39:04,675
And that's the game
I want you to win.
864
00:39:04,717 --> 00:39:06,594
Long term.
865
00:39:06,635 --> 00:39:10,097
And I really know
how you can get this done.
866
00:39:10,139 --> 00:39:14,226
It is the one thing on Earth
I am truly elite at.
867
00:39:16,645 --> 00:39:18,522
Walk me through it, then.
868
00:39:22,318 --> 00:39:25,571
So, you see, we put up
some roadblocks of our own.
869
00:39:25,613 --> 00:39:28,657
I can see why you feel good
about this, Axe. I can.
870
00:39:28,699 --> 00:39:30,743
But there's one beat
I left out of my own story.
871
00:39:30,785 --> 00:39:35,122
I did, you see, end up having
my own meeting with Dunlop.
872
00:39:35,164 --> 00:39:38,376
Governor, now that
you've met all over town,
873
00:39:38,417 --> 00:39:41,337
I'm glad you decided
to find time for me.
874
00:39:41,379 --> 00:39:43,381
Well, I wanted to make you
the last meeting,
875
00:39:43,422 --> 00:39:46,967
so I wouldn't have to tell you
that I'd have to think about it.
876
00:39:47,009 --> 00:39:49,011
-Either way.
-Considerate.
877
00:39:50,971 --> 00:39:52,848
Sure. That's what it is.
878
00:39:52,890 --> 00:39:54,642
As I am considerate
of those I vanquish.
879
00:39:54,683 --> 00:39:57,520
No reason to pull
a full Angel Reese.
880
00:39:57,561 --> 00:40:00,064
[laughs]
I like her spunk and fire.
881
00:40:00,106 --> 00:40:01,774
Of course you do.
882
00:40:01,816 --> 00:40:03,567
When I played,
I was more in the
883
00:40:03,609 --> 00:40:06,195
"just place the ball on the
baseline after you score" mode.
884
00:40:06,237 --> 00:40:08,739
That's what went in Indiana
in the '90s.
885
00:40:10,116 --> 00:40:11,367
Different world now.
886
00:40:11,409 --> 00:40:12,910
Certain things,
certain values,
887
00:40:12,952 --> 00:40:14,203
should remain constant.
888
00:40:14,245 --> 00:40:16,831
We aren't playing
to an audience, Mike.
889
00:40:16,872 --> 00:40:18,791
What can you offer me?
890
00:40:21,585 --> 00:40:23,921
[laughs]
She is tough.
891
00:40:23,963 --> 00:40:25,339
And you definitely got to her.
892
00:40:25,381 --> 00:40:27,258
Sorry to make it so difficult.
893
00:40:27,299 --> 00:40:28,676
Yeah.
894
00:40:28,717 --> 00:40:31,095
Maybe we've each made it
as difficult for the other
895
00:40:31,137 --> 00:40:32,680
as we should.
896
00:40:32,721 --> 00:40:35,599
Maybe we try
a different mode now.
897
00:40:36,809 --> 00:40:38,936
Say the thing
you're dancing around.
898
00:40:38,978 --> 00:40:41,814
It's time to put
this conflict to rest.
899
00:40:41,856 --> 00:40:43,524
By way of peace talks.
900
00:40:44,316 --> 00:40:46,318
Let's call them in.
901
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,028
All of them.
902
00:40:50,865 --> 00:40:52,992
[Chuck] You believe we've got
Dunlop where you want her?
903
00:40:53,033 --> 00:40:55,953
I believe she'll do exactly
what we need her to.
904
00:41:04,044 --> 00:41:08,215
In the old-timey thing,
the predominant king would, say,
905
00:41:08,257 --> 00:41:11,844
surrender his Northern troops,
give back some lands.
906
00:41:11,886 --> 00:41:13,220
Because he knew
if the war went on,
907
00:41:13,262 --> 00:41:15,347
even in victory,
it would be Pyrrhic...
908
00:41:16,432 --> 00:41:18,517
and that he could prevent
further bloodshed
909
00:41:18,559 --> 00:41:21,145
and loss on all sides
by doing so.
910
00:41:21,187 --> 00:41:23,314
And what do
great presidents do?
911
00:41:24,940 --> 00:41:27,860
Great presidents,
all great leaders, do the same.
912
00:41:27,902 --> 00:41:30,029
Dictate peace
through strength.
913
00:41:30,070 --> 00:41:33,657
Great presidents?
Dreams of fucking grandeur.
914
00:41:33,699 --> 00:41:35,910
They should deal with traitors
harshly before that peace.
915
00:41:35,951 --> 00:41:37,828
Damn right they should.
You should, Mike.
916
00:41:37,870 --> 00:41:39,914
Yeah, that way you'll
finally be in charge,
917
00:41:39,955 --> 00:41:42,333
all by yourself, just like
you wanted from the start.
918
00:41:42,374 --> 00:41:43,876
That's what you think
is driving him?
919
00:41:43,918 --> 00:41:46,003
That,
or the nose-to-ass parades
920
00:41:46,045 --> 00:41:48,005
you've been
such a prominent part of.
921
00:41:48,047 --> 00:41:49,298
Stockyard comment
from a man
922
00:41:49,340 --> 00:41:50,549
whose mind is always
in the trough.
923
00:41:50,591 --> 00:41:51,926
You're doing
a lot of talking
924
00:41:51,967 --> 00:41:53,761
about strength, Mike.
925
00:41:54,845 --> 00:41:56,430
But only the king
with the extra armies
926
00:41:56,472 --> 00:41:58,390
or allies or siege artillery,
927
00:41:58,432 --> 00:41:59,808
the fucking dreadnought
weapons--
928
00:41:59,850 --> 00:42:01,018
Those are the nukes
929
00:42:01,060 --> 00:42:02,770
he's so eager
to play around with.
930
00:42:02,811 --> 00:42:04,647
Only the king with all that
931
00:42:04,688 --> 00:42:06,440
had the juice to dictate terms.
932
00:42:06,482 --> 00:42:08,484
But you?
933
00:42:08,526 --> 00:42:11,070
You just look like
another run-of-the-mill usurper
934
00:42:11,111 --> 00:42:12,905
scrapping for turf in this room.
935
00:42:12,947 --> 00:42:14,281
Hear, hear.
936
00:42:14,323 --> 00:42:15,616
So you think.
937
00:42:15,658 --> 00:42:17,618
Now, my information
has Governor Dunlop
938
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:20,913
reaffirming her own candidacy
for president tonight,
939
00:42:20,955 --> 00:42:23,916
with a big machine
and a lot of backing behind her.
940
00:42:23,958 --> 00:42:28,796
Mine too, which means you'll be
in a dogfight for the next year.
941
00:42:30,089 --> 00:42:32,091
I guess we'll soon see.
942
00:42:34,802 --> 00:42:36,220
It's time.
943
00:42:44,895 --> 00:42:47,022
Oh, fuck.
944
00:42:54,780 --> 00:42:56,282
Hello, everyone.
945
00:42:56,323 --> 00:42:58,701
No intros needed.
You know who I am,
946
00:42:58,742 --> 00:43:02,288
and I know those of you
it's important to know.
947
00:43:02,329 --> 00:43:06,417
It's been a real kick doing
the roundy-round with you all.
948
00:43:08,294 --> 00:43:10,045
But I've made my decision...
949
00:43:13,716 --> 00:43:15,593
to not only throw my support
950
00:43:15,634 --> 00:43:18,178
behind our next president,
Mike Prince,
951
00:43:18,220 --> 00:43:20,681
but to become his partner.
952
00:43:23,058 --> 00:43:25,144
His vice president.
953
00:43:25,185 --> 00:43:28,063
For the good of our country
and the whole world.
954
00:43:28,105 --> 00:43:29,648
Yeah. Like I said.
955
00:43:29,690 --> 00:43:32,610
At least
you got a decent price.
956
00:43:32,651 --> 00:43:34,111
[Prince]
Governor, thank you.
957
00:43:34,153 --> 00:43:35,821
I'll meet up
with you shortly.
958
00:43:43,412 --> 00:43:45,080
Now, I know what that's
got to feel like.
959
00:43:45,122 --> 00:43:47,791
And that the tendency
for you, and for me,
960
00:43:47,833 --> 00:43:50,544
is to go on trying
to destroy each other.
961
00:43:50,586 --> 00:43:52,463
But it'll cost both sides,
962
00:43:52,504 --> 00:43:55,591
even though it's pretty clear
who'll win out here.
963
00:43:57,176 --> 00:43:59,887
Which is why I propose
a peace treaty
964
00:43:59,928 --> 00:44:02,014
between our warring factions.
965
00:44:02,056 --> 00:44:05,017
-And what would that look like?
-[Prince] Like this:
966
00:44:05,059 --> 00:44:06,393
You, jointly and separately,
967
00:44:06,435 --> 00:44:09,146
will cease all further
and future attacks on me,
968
00:44:09,188 --> 00:44:11,148
my name, my candidacy,
969
00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:13,609
my personal life
and my business interests,
970
00:44:13,651 --> 00:44:15,402
which include
my remaining personnel,
971
00:44:15,444 --> 00:44:16,737
which no longer includes anyone
972
00:44:16,779 --> 00:44:18,155
on that side of the table,
by the way.
973
00:44:18,197 --> 00:44:19,948
In return, I will do the same,
974
00:44:19,990 --> 00:44:21,325
and when I become president,
975
00:44:21,367 --> 00:44:23,535
I pledge not to use
any government resources
976
00:44:23,577 --> 00:44:27,456
to persecute, prosecute,
fire or bankrupt any of you.
977
00:44:30,501 --> 00:44:34,672
Should we jump ahead past
all the writhing and invective
978
00:44:34,713 --> 00:44:36,840
to the place where we all admit
this is the best deal
979
00:44:36,882 --> 00:44:38,676
you're gonna get?
980
00:44:49,478 --> 00:44:50,854
Good.
981
00:44:50,896 --> 00:44:54,817
[Procol Harum:
"A Whiter Shade of Pale"]
982
00:44:54,858 --> 00:44:56,485
[crowd cheering]
983
00:44:58,946 --> 00:45:03,826
We skipped
The light fandango
984
00:45:06,161 --> 00:45:08,080
So, well, there's that.
985
00:45:10,833 --> 00:45:12,960
Yeah. There it is.
986
00:45:13,001 --> 00:45:15,504
I was feeling
Kind of seasick
987
00:45:17,172 --> 00:45:18,590
[Luke] Yes.
988
00:45:19,675 --> 00:45:21,009
Yes.
989
00:45:22,177 --> 00:45:23,512
Okay.
990
00:45:26,557 --> 00:45:27,808
That was the call.
991
00:45:27,850 --> 00:45:29,435
You're on the briefings, Mike.
992
00:45:30,644 --> 00:45:32,229
First one is tomorrow.
993
00:45:33,355 --> 00:45:34,773
Yeah.
994
00:45:35,858 --> 00:45:37,985
So, yes, that's it, then.
995
00:45:38,026 --> 00:45:41,613
When we called out
For another drink
996
00:45:41,655 --> 00:45:43,323
All conditions satisfied.
997
00:45:44,908 --> 00:45:47,870
The waiter brought a tray
998
00:45:49,204 --> 00:45:50,581
Tomorrow, at the open,
999
00:45:50,622 --> 00:45:52,291
put the money to work
as instructed.
1000
00:45:52,332 --> 00:45:53,751
Nothing heroic.
1001
00:45:53,792 --> 00:45:57,045
Prioritize return of capital,
not return on capital.
1002
00:45:57,087 --> 00:45:58,255
You got it, Cap'.
1003
00:45:58,297 --> 00:45:59,923
Where's the briefing?
White House?
1004
00:45:59,965 --> 00:46:02,301
No.
We're going to Camp David.
1005
00:46:02,342 --> 00:46:04,386
That's it.
1006
00:46:04,428 --> 00:46:05,846
You're minted.
1007
00:46:06,889 --> 00:46:08,724
Boom.
1008
00:46:08,766 --> 00:46:10,267
You can say that again.
1009
00:46:10,309 --> 00:46:11,977
Boom.
1010
00:46:13,187 --> 00:46:15,230
...Shade of pale
1011
00:46:44,593 --> 00:46:49,264
She said
"There is no reason"
1012
00:46:50,849 --> 00:46:54,269
"And the truth
Is plain to see"
