Hey!

Baby killer!

Well, they picked the grand
jury, so I'm gonna send Yanko...

Holy shit.

- Are you okay?
- I guess my post hit a nerve.

And I really liked this coat.

Five minutes, Alex.

Thanks.

God.

This week on Alex Unfiltered...

Big Data, fake news and the
truth about his top-secret tech.

Nothing's off the table as Hyperion
CEO Paul Marks talks with Alex Levy

about taking UBA
into the future.

Join us for this exclusive interview,
Thursday at 8:00, only on UBA+.

I bet nothing's off the table.

I'm more interested in what's
happening under the table.

Do you think they were sleeping
together when they shot this?

I can't believe after Mitch,
she's still pulling this shit.

Okay, I don't think it's
exactly the same thing.

- Did you see the picture?
- No.

It's embarrassing.

She's turning us into a joke.

Hey, hey, I've got a joke.

How many narcissists does
it take to screw in a lightbulb?

How many?

Just one, but they need
the whole world watching.

Really, Joel?

Sorry.

All right. You guys, listen up.

Um, I just have to say

that no matter what goes
on in my personal life,

nothing here in our day-to-day
at TMS is gonna change.

So we don't have time
for bullshit or gossip.

- This SCOTUS story is too important.
- Agreed.

We had a great show today,
but we have to bring it all week.

Let's get to it.

Who's got copies
of the draft opinion?

Does anybody have any info on the
leaker? Are they all just pointing fingers?

- What's happening?
- I can make copies. I'll... I'll do that.

Yeah, that'd be a better
use of your time, Joel.

Um, I want Kirsten
Gillibrand on Alex Unfiltered.

They're only gonna give us five
minutes and asked to be on TMS.

They did?

And they will only
give us five minutes?

- Honestly. Chip?
- Yeah, I-I'll look into it. Yeah.

Any word from Anita Hill?

I reached out again this
morning, but it's still early, so...

All right. Well, call again.

- I'll call too.
- Absolutely.

Look, we're going
all in on this, okay?

Hey, um, before you go, everyone's
still good for Thursday, right?

We'll meet in the teacup?

Great. Okay, guys,
back to work. Let's go.

And how is she doing?

We told her to take the day,
just go home, but you know Chris.

So, do you think this is a one-off
thing, or is this, gonna be a problem?

Not sure yet. I'll
keep an eye on it.

- Did Alex talk to you since last night?
- No.

- What about Paul?
- He's in Texas right now.

He's coming back on
Thursday for the photo shoot.

Yeah, he's making moves.

Yeah. Seems like everybody is.

Were you ever gonna tell me
that you're the Stanford student?

Would you have done
anything differently?

You know that's why
he offered you my job.

He was worried
that you're a problem.

And so he took care of it.

I think something's going on at Hyperion,
something that Paul wants to keep quiet.

Can you be more specific?

- No.
- Okay.

If Paul wants to sleep
with Alex, so be it.

If he wants to sell their nudes as NFTs,
as long as she consents, I don't care.

His stunts don't matter.
His moves don't matter.

His money matters.

So we are going to close
this deal, no matter what,

and UBA's future is
going to be secure.

And I got a $150 million buyout,

so I judge it as too
expensive to fire me.

- Is there anything else?
- No.

Hi. You've reached
Kate. Leave a message.

Shit.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

Just checking on this
employment agreement.

Yeah. Looks good.

My agents are gonna
get back to you shortly.

Great. Wanna get the team in
place before the shareholder vote.

Yeah. Yeah. Of course.

I left a message for the head
of legal at Planned Parenthood,

- Linda... Right. Okay.
- Constantine. Yeah, I'll follow up.

Also, Anita Hill's
office finally reached out.

Good.

They said check back with
them in, like, two weeks.

Two weeks?

Look, before you say anything...
I made some calls,

and, um...

Anita Hill's doing an in-depth
with Laura Peterson.

You have got to be kidding me.

It's NBN. The producers are playing
dirty, and I'm just not getting through.

Yeah, well, that's not good
enough. This is your job, Chip.

If NBN is trying to convince
people not to touch me,

it is your job to
un-convince them.

I get it, Alex. But I just...

Is that gonna be a problem?

- No.
- Great.

- I will handle it.
- Thank you.

Look, I... I wanted to ask
you...

You didn't respond
to Doug's email.

- I was cc'd on it.
- I know. Fucking Doug.

Did you read the statement he drafted?
I thought it was pretty straightforward.

- I mean...
- It's not happening.

I am not putting out a
statement about Paul this week.

I get it, Alex. It sucks, okay?

But this is Paul Marks. It's
not some rando from Raya.

We're closing the
deal next week, okay?

Th... This is a story you have
to get ahead of. You know this.

Chip, this is what they
do. This is what they do.

No. I cannot be the story that
distracts from the actual news.

All right? I will
deal with Doug.

You just handle Linda
Constantine, okay?

Yeah. Yeah. All
right, I'm on it.

Thank you.

God. What the fuck?

NBN just
has better bagels than we do.

They're not from work. I
picked them up on the way.

That's so sweet.

You thought I
was just standing there,

all mic'ed up, shoving
cream cheese in my bag?

That's what I do every day. I
get all my best snacks at work.

I actually had to duck
out right after we wrapped.

The world's on fire, and all Audra
can talk about is Alex and Paul.

I mean, I agree.

Alex is really crossing a line.

Look, I want her to be happy,

but I... I don't even
know what to say to her.

You know, he was sniffing around us
too. I mean, God knows we need the money.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Well, maybe you'll
come work at UBA again,

and you can get a
little office next to mine,

and we can make out
in the supply closet.

That sounds perfect.

- Okay, I have to go to work.
- Okay.

As much as I'd
like to eat bagels.

Where is my robe?

- I don't know how you function.
- I know. I gotta get a closet.

- I don't know, something like that.
- What's this?

Cory's mom gave me that.

When were you with Cory's mom?

Yesterday. It was a work thing.

Honestly, it was very weird.

Yeah.

My boss has never
introduced me to her mom.

Count your blessings.

You were amazing this morning.
Highest-rated Tuesday in two months.

I didn't love the
face full of paint,

but it's not gonna stop
me from going on air.

About that. Um,

we need to talk to you about
your segments going forward, Chris.

Now that I'm a walking,
talking political liability.

We may need to pull
back on your SCOTUS coverage.

Just for the next
couple of weeks.

I'm sorry, you're doing what?

Layla, I thought we said we
were gonna slow-walk this one.

There's slow-walking, and
then there's sugarcoating.

And it might be good to lay off
your socials until this dies down.

So I say what the
majority of people are thinking,

- and you're punishing me for it?
- No, no, no. We're not punishing you.

We can't guarantee your
safety. Your physical safety.

While you were on air today,
there were some additional threats.

- Okay.
- Right.

There's someone
we'd like you to meet.

Preston?

Hey, Preston.

Preston's gonna
be looking after you.

Pick you up, take you
door-to-door, anything else you need.

Nice to meet you.

You know I already
have a driver.

Preston will be escorting
you from the lobby to your car,

from the car into your home.

Until all this blows over.

You gotta be kidding me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Am I interrupting?
- No, not at all. Come on in.

Have a seat.

I have an old friend
who works for Paul.

Used to.

She just got fired, but I don't
think it's because she fucked up.

- Okay.
- She came to see me,

and I think she was trying to tell
me something about his company.

And I... I didn't...

I shut her down.

And now she won't return my calls.

Wait, do you... do you think
she wants to be a whistleblower?

I don't know. But I
need you to find out.

Okay.

And for obvious
reasons, I can't ask Alex.

Yeah. Of course, of course.

She might talk to you.

You have a certain profile.

You're not afraid to
take down powerful men.

Look, Kate was my best friend.

And when I saw her...
I don't know what's going on.

- She seemed fragile and manic...
- Okay.

- and desperate... - Yeah. I
hear you, Stella. I know. Okay.

I hear your concerns.

I'm just worried

because the last time I pushed a
woman to talk about her trauma,

she ended her life.

Hannah Schoenfeld didn't
kill herself because of you.

Well, I can't... I can't do that.

Not again.

What happened to
Hannah was terrible.

Period.

But in the end, you
did the right thing.

You held those men accountable.

Call Kate. Please.

- Hey.
- Stella's on board.

I'll chase the paperwork.

- Good.
- Now all we need is a long-range rocket

that goes where we tell it to.

Well, if this test goes
well, we're on our way.

How much shit is Alex taking?

Hey, I came on board with you

because I want to do something
bigger than myself, bigger than humanity.

"The world is too fucking
small." That's what you said.

You want to get
your bird wet? Fine.

But when you lose
focus, the mission suffers.

Well, I think my
focus is just fine.

Good. I was beginning to worry.

You've been smiling a lot.

It unnerves me.

You take care of your
end, I'll take care of mine.

So, when I... I finally went
home, my wife had left.

She had taken everything that was
hers, and the house was, blank.

I don't even know how long she'd
been gone. It could have been weeks.

I had to take a pretty
hard look at myself.

The way I treated other people.
The cost... of what I was doing.

There. Pause it there.
Right there. Sorry.

What?

Nothing.

I was just thinking how great
it'll be for the grandchildren,

having the moment that
they fell in love on tape.

Cory, you're very funny, but
what the hell am I supposed to do?

You... You wanna... You wanna
pull the... the reaction shot?

Turn Alex into a robot?

Come on. Everybody's gonna
know we fucked with the edit.

Well, they'll
know someone fucked.

You know, Alex should
be here. She has final cut.

Okay. Yeah, I'll talk to her.

Just please remember
that you and me

and every other warm-blooded Alex
Levy fan watching this interview knows

that they end up
in bed together.

You cut that casting couch dig
and the abandoned husband routine,

and we have ratings gold.

It's true, Chip. You know that.

Asshole.

Hello?

Hey, is this Kate Danton?

Who is this?

This is Bradley Jackson
from UBA Evening News.

I'm wondering if you'd want
to talk about Paul Marks.

Wrong number.

Shit.

So, how are things
going with Bradley?

Is it #Ladley 2.0?

They're good. Yeah.

Yeah, but is it,
like, honeymoony,

or did it feel like you were
picking up where you left off?

Well... we left off by
breaking up, so it's definitely easier.

I mean, the only problem is that
I'm out the door before she's awake,

and then by the time I'm coming
home, she's heading out the door,

- so...
- Yeah.

Though apparently, she spent an entire
day with Cory Ellison and his mother.

My God, I knew they had a thing.

They didn't have a thing. There was
no thing. Bradley would have told me.

Yeah, but you said
that he was into her.

And he is oddly compelling

in a kind of Patrick Bateman
in a vinyl raincoat kind of way.

Laura. She is not going to tell
you if they've ever been together.

She's just not.

And, honestly, when was the
last time you spent an entire day

with the mother of someone
you weren't sleeping with?

You should read her emails.

Audra, come on. I'm not
going through her phone.

And you won't have to.
Everything's online 'cause of the hack.

It takes some serious digging,
but you can find it all on one website.

I'm gonna send you a link.

Okay, let's do a mic test.

Okay. Last
segment, guys. Let's bring it in.

We're good? Thank you.

Do I have to ask, or do
you just wanna tell me?

Someone spray-painted Saint
Patrick's Cathedral with the words

from my SCOTUS post
right on the front door.

These people.
Who defaces a church?

Well, you wanted
to send a message, so...

- Yanko.
- What?

I didn't ask for this.

Chris, you have
two million followers.

What do you think they're all gonna do?

Just sit back and clap politely
when you tell the Supreme Court

- to abort itself? I'm just saying.
- Okay, nope. Nope.

- I literally cannot with this today.
- I'm just saying. You know?

And what about all those
people who want to adopt?

Do you have any idea how hard it is to
make it through that screening process?

- Yanko. Stop.
- Well, do you...

Five, four, three...

And welcome back.

And in just a few moments, I'm
gonna be talking to Hope Ballard,

a former clerk to Justice
Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

She's gonna give us an inside take
on how the court might be reacting

to this historic
leak. And Chris?

And right now, I'll be chatting with
the winners of UBA's breakout hit,

Wedding Cake Wars.

- Congratulations, Todd and Andrew.
- Thank you.

What do you want her
to do? Apologize on air?

She's gonna have to start
reporting on Roe at some point.

What?

This massive story breaks,
and she makes it about her?

What did Chris think was gonna
happen when she made that post?

I don't think she was making it about
her. She said what a lot of us are feeling.

Go one.

- What the... André. Mother...
- What's wrong?

Can you cover for
me? I'll be right back.

I'm sure everyone back
home is... is super proud of you.

We need to go to commercial so that I
can have some alone time with this cake.

We'll be right back.

What the fuck?
What the fucking fuck?

You're in New York?
On fucking YDA?

You can reach out to my agent
if you want me on your show.

Really? Really?

Or you could send a
gift basket to my hotel.

"Dear André. Thank you for all of
your hard work behind enemy lines."

That... That'd be nice.

You're fucking unbelievable.

You do not text.
You do not call.

You fucking disappeared.

I thought you were dead.

I was trying to keep
my ass out of a fucking gulag.

Getting pictures for you, Mia.

Don't you dare. Don't
you fucking dare.

- Well, it's the truth, isn't it?
- You wanted to go. You always wanna go.

You choose work
over everything else

because you are a
middle-aged adrenaline junkie

who would rather
bounce between wars...

than
commit to a zip code.

Alex Levy. Just
who I was looking for.

And you found me in my
office. Way to go, Columbo.

Good.

How are things?

If you're gonna tell me that I
should've kept it in my pants, then...

No, no, no.

I'm here to talk to you
about your hit show.

So, Chip and I, we just,
recut your interview with Paul

in light of the
recent revelations.

I want you to have a look at
it when you have a chance.

Yeah. Um, I don't need to
take a look. I'm bumping it.

Yeah, about that, we...

We've been running promos
all weekend, so it's really...

Yeah. Well, I'm pivoting.

We just booked the head of
legal at Planned Parenthood.

So... she
will be my guest this week.

We have a shareholder
vote on the deal,

and your little make-out
session with the prom king

is creating a massive
perception problem.

So, pulling the interview

that you insisted on and that
we have hyped relentlessly...

Sorry. No, we can't.

Cory, we are covering

the most important story for
American women in 50 years.

Believe me, I get it.

My mother has instilled
in me the belief that,

what a woman chooses to do
with her body, that is her business.

Yeah. Which is exactly why gossip about
my private life should be off the table.

Come on, Cory.

Understood. Fine.

We will run the
interview next week.

And I will need to
take a look at that edit.

Alex,
you know, I don't have to do this.

I'm trying to play nice here.

Aw.

Well, listen, the deal
will be closing very soon,

so you'll be answering
to new management.

You never cease
to surprise me, Alex.

You are on the verge of getting everything
you ever wanted out of this place.

Power in your own right.

And you choose instead to
be the girlfriend, the plus-one.

And that's not me talking.

That is, sadly, the,
patriarchal cesspool that we live in.

But now, I can promise you
every decision you make at UBA,

it'll be pulled apart and
scrutinized by the public.

Not to mention
everybody in this building.

Ain't love grand?

Don't forget to shut
the door on your way out.

Boop.

Asshole.

Mel said you ordered this. I
thought you didn't like this place.

I don't.

Sorry. Somebody messed up.

This order says it's for Kate D.

W... wait a second. Yeah.

- Okay. Enjoy.
- Okay. Thanks.

Don't turn around.

Kate?

I will talk on the
record, but only to you.

Okay. Can I... Can I
record this conversation?

Tomorrow night, eight o'clock.

The Theater at City
Tech in Brooklyn.

Just you.

I'll tell you everything I
know about Hyperion.

Okay.

Hey.

- Why are you up?
- Well, what are you doing up?

I've got an
engine test in a few hours.

Everything okay there?

I just wanted you to know
that I had to pull our interview

so I could focus on SCOTUS.

Okay.

- You don't think that dodges the issue?
- Yeah. Too late.

That issue is
already everywhere.

Everybody's just fucking whispering
and gossiping, and it's just maddening.

It's so maddening.

I'm sorry.

I'm assuming none of that's
happening where you are?

No. No, it isn't.

Look... if you're
having second thoughts about this...

if you wanna
pump the brakes, we can...

No, no, no, of course I don't.

I just, you know...

Yeah, I know. Me too.

Levy, you need to sleep.

Someone's gotta tell the people about all
the shitty things happening in the world.

I know. Trigger
laws wait for no one.

- I gotta go.
- Okay.

- Bye.
- Bye.

- So, how many people hate my guts today?
- Fifty-seven.

- That's it?
- Well, fan mail ain't what it used to be.

This one was nice at least.

She asked for a signed photo.

"Dear Chris, you
inspire me to do my best.

This year I'm going to be the
anchor in the 4-by-100 relay.

Maybe someday... Team USA."

That's sweet.

Planned Parenthood dropped
out? What the fuck, Chip?

I know. I'm sorry. Linda apologized.

You were supposed
to take care of NBN.

- I don't understand what's happening.
- I tried.

Everybody's going after
the same interview subjects.

- I mean, it's brutal out there.
- Jesus, God.

But look, I got some alts, okay?

What about Tara Spitz?

The rep from Missouri?

- Yeah. State's got a trigger ban.
- No, no.

She's a... She's an opportunist,

and all she cares about is
airtime for her reelection campaign.

Okay, there's James Scanlon,

- constitutional professor from Princeton.
- Okay.

Interesting idea about an
interview about women's bodies.

- Let's try to book a woman, please.
- Fine. Jess Bennett, okay?

She's a cofounder of that
online magazine The Break.

They just broke that huge story

about Rebekah Mercer
backstabbing the CEO of Parler.

- I mean, it's... -
Come on, Chip.

This is about overturning
Roe, the legacy of the court.

The Break is glorified gossip.

Respectfully, she's gonna have a take.

She did a post during the
whole Merrick Garland fiasco

predicting that that could
lead to the end of Roe.

She was the
first one to call it.

Okay. All right,
that's interesting.

She can kind of read
the tea leaves on this stuff, okay?

Plus, it won't be the same,
like, you know, center-left,

institutional apologist bullshit
that everybody else is gonna run.

God. I prepped for
Planned Parenthood.

I know, I know. But look, we
got an hour until we shoot, okay?

I've read a ton of
the stuff. I got you.

Wear an earpiece.
It's gonna be fine.

All right, fine. Fine.

- Just get me everything you have on her.
- All right. I'm on it.

This week's Supreme Court
leak raised a number of issues.

Among them, the
issue of minority rule.

In theory, democracy
is one person, one vote.

But in the case of the Supreme
Court, nine unelected individuals

control deeply private
aspects of American life.

Jess, you wrote a
piece, back in 2016,

predicting that Roe would be overturned
way before anybody else saw this coming.

Well, I just looked at the
clues, and I did the math.

And it would seem like this
ruling could also threaten other liberties,

such as gay
marriage, for example.

Absolutely. This is
really just the beginning.

And there is no doubt

that these nine unelected individuals
have disproportionate power.

Though, I would argue that when
we're talking about minority rule,

the real problem that we're facing
is from billionaires and dark money.

I mean, in terms
of social control,

these people have this
outsized influence in media

that frankly scares the shit out of me.

I think the fourth estate
is in serious trouble.

Ask about Bezos.

Is the fourth estate in trouble?

I mean, Jeff Bezos bought
The Washington Post,

and by all accounts,
he's stayed hands-off.

Sure, for now.

But Wall Street has made
these guys impossibly rich,

and the bull market's
about to jump off a cliff.

So, what happens
when the music stops?

Okay. Um, going back
to the Supreme Court...

- Right. Populated by judges...
- Um...

who are selected by politicians
who are controlled by lobbyists

who are funded by billionaires.

It's a direct line.

You can't talk about these
things inside of a vacuum.

And what happens
when the infrastructure

of public discourse is
owned by private enterprises?

Take UBA for example. Paul Marks
hasn't even bought this place yet...

Jess, we're talking about Roe.

No, we're talking about unchecked power.

I'm talking about how women
confront power in the era of minority rule.

I'm sorry. But if a reporter
hooks up with a billionaire

who is buying her media company,

people are going
to ask questions.

Like, "Is she actually capable
of speaking truth to power?"

You know that I'm
not the news this week.

Nor is UBA or Paul Marks.

We're here to talk about millions of women
who are losing control over their bodies.

Sure. But you did
just prove my point.

The story is whatever you
decide it is. You and Paul Marks.

To be frank, I did not want to
talk about my private life this week.

I did not want to distract
from the actual news.

So, can we, before this news
cycle moves on to the next horror,

just for five minutes,
focus on women's rights?

Okay.

What happened to
"I'll be in your ear"?

You just stood there with your dick
in your hand like you didn't give a shit.

It looks like you
handled it, okay?

- So I...
- Handled it?

I'm not supposed to
handle it. That's not my job.

She obviously came here to fuck
with me and get more clicks for her blog.

You didn't catch up on
that in the preinterview?

I don't know. I think she
raised some issues that, frankly,

honestly, people are curious about.

I find it a little hard to believe
you couldn't see that coming.

- You're un-fucking-believable.
- Hey. D... Don't put this on me.

- You set yourself up for this, okay?
- Okay.

- I did? Okay.
- Yes.

You refused to put out a statement,
and you fucking pulled the interview.

An interview that you
edited behind my back.

Yeah, you wouldn't listen to anybody.
Send in Doug. I come in. Cory comes in.

You refuse to
speak to any of us.

- Right, the three wise men.
- Okay.

- I'm sorry. My bad. Got it.
- God.

You know what? Two years I've
spent of my life building this show,

and turns out all it takes is
one negligent producer to just...

You would not have a
show if it wasn't for me, okay?

Alex Unfiltered was my idea.

- Okay.
- I rebrand you.

I do it over and over again.
You're fucking lucky that I do.

'Cause guess what.

Anything good that comes
along, you just light a little fire

- and explode it right away.
- I see. Sure, I do.

Sleeping with the boss only
works until it doesn't, Alex.

- Mitch was not my boss!
- Yeah, well, he was everybody else's.

Okay. Said the
guy who I walked in on

- fucking my assistant in my very own home.
- God.

Well, great. You fixed that.

You don't have to deal with that anymore.
You fucked it up too. Congratulations.

Okay, I...
I can't do this anymore.

You're fired.

Come...
Alex, come on. You w...

- Alex...
- Get out.

Just so you know, um... You
know, I never had COVID.

I came into your apartment, I
saw you crumpled up on the floor,

and, um... I
did what I always do.

You know, I rescued you.

I guess you don't
need that anymore.

And neither do I. Yeah.

You're gonna be late for
the fucking photo shoot.

- They can wait.
- Jesus, fuck.

How much booze have you had?

- Not enough.
- I heard it was bad.

It was a fucking
disaster. - I mean...

We're not gonna make the
launch. Not at this rate.

I heard you lost it in
front of a lot of people.

It was the fucking bleed.

We should've
caught it months ago,

but we were all focused on
the hydrogen leak.

NASA's gonna pull out.

If I fail at this, all anyone's
gonna talk about is my privilege.

My fucking privilege.

As if I'm from some trust
fund with some safety net.

If I fuck this up,
then what's waiting?

Come on.

There's a Duane
Reade five minutes from here.

We're gonna need gum,
Gatorade, Red Bull and deodorant.

Let's go.

Fuck it. Okay.

- Thank you.
- Of course.

He walks among us.

Cory. Sorry I'm late.

Hi.

Hi.

Thank you.

Good.
Shoulder to shoulder.

I didn't know there
was a pregame for this.

You just need to loosen up,
or was there a lover's quarrel?

How about, don't concern
yourself with my personal life.

Can you guys both face me?

Hey, you wanna fuck
the talent, go right ahead.

But rolling up here like this?

- Don't fuck the deal.
- Or what? You'll leave?

- Okay, guys, give me one sec.
- Yeah, why don't you take a couple?

You know what, Cory?
You're a small man.

I didn't really
notice it at first,

but after the last few months of
staring at the top of your head,

I kinda can't unsee it now.

Yeah, boy.

The hooch makes him hateful.
Or maybe it's the air up there.

It must be a little
thin, 'cause hypoxia,

- it can mess with your brain function.
- Yeah.

You think this is gonna
be easy, don't you?

You green-light a couple shows,
you come to a couple premieres,

and then you fuck back
off to your little desert lair.

UBA is not a hobby.

You're not making sourdough
starter in a mason jar.

It's bankers breathing
down your neck.

It's ad boys pulling a hundred million in
Viagra ads from your NFL playoff game

because Pfizer just lost
the patent for hard-ons.

And when the Wall Street
vultures start circling, and they will,

you will need my counsel.

And, I don't know.

With that attitude of yours,
I don't know where I'll be.

And when it all goes south,

I don't see Alex sticking by.

That's interesting.

You... You talk a lot about Alex, but
she doesn't really ever mention you.

What the fuck?

Jesus.

My God.

Fucking hell.

At 12:53 p.m., the
outer perimeter is breached.

Imagine, complete chaos within the
walls of this monument to democracy.

No one knows where
to go or what to do.

You're back. That's a relief.

Yeah. Well, we still have a
few months before the launch.

We just need more cash.

Gonna run some numbers. I
think I see a way out of this.

There's something else.

When we let Kate Danton go,

she told everyone she
was headed to Palo Alto.

- And?
- And she flew to New York instead.

I called her today,
and she didn't answer.

Do you think she
could be a problem?

I don't know. Maybe.

- Hey.
- Bradley, hey.

Um, listen, I might be a little late
tonight because we have a thing at TMS.

Actually, I'm at my place.
I'm not feeling so great.

No.
Do you think it's COVID?

No, I don't think
so. I tested negative.

But I'm gonna sleep
here, just in case.

O... Okay, well, let me
know if I can bring you anything.

Yeah, I will.

Um, I just need some time.

Okay.

Laura?

I love you. Y... You know
that, right?

I love you too.

Okay. Feel better.

- Hey, Yanko. How are you?
- Hey. What's up?

Hey. You're here late.

Yeah. Um, just taking a minute.

My God. What happened?
Did you hurt yourself?

I went for a run to clear my head,
and I managed to fuck up my leg.

Yeah, I've never DNF'ed.

DNF'ed?

It means "did not finish."

It's stupid, but it wasn't a... It
wasn't a race or anything that... Yeah.

You miss being out there?

Yeah.

But I do not belong
on that track anymore.

No matter how much I
train, it's not coming back.

Yeah.

I dream of the final
lap, the final turn.

Passing on the outside.

I never get caught.

Hey, look, about yesterday.

What... What I said.
It's none of my business.

It's no... And I'm... I wanna
apologize. I was way out of line.

Yes. You were.

But there are a lot of things
we're never gonna agree on.

I know. I know. But you're my
colleague, and I screwed up.

You know? And you got so
much going on as it is, and...

Did you really
try to adopt a kid?

You know, you can always babysit
mine if you really wanna try it on.

It might change your mind.

Hey, we're all gonna get
together in a few minutes.

You wanna come join?

I didn't think that that was
something I should go to.

Not at all. Come on.
We'd love to have you.

You're part of the family.

Yeah.

Is this a bad time?

Yeah, actually.

I'm sorry.

For not calling.

For going on YDA. I... I know
how much you hate them.

You can go on YDA.

You can go on Eagle News.
You don't owe me anything.

I... I'm just glad you're safe.

Even though I'm a middle-aged
adrenaline junkie who...

- Can't commit to a zip code. Yeah.
- That was it.

That was a good one.

It was a good one.

Do you know what I was thinking
when I was laid up in that hospital?

No.

I was thinking about how much
of a shit I was to you about Mitch.

How maybe I deserved to get hit.

And...

I thought a lot about
being at your place with you.

Why are you here, André?

I miss you.

So, what, you wanna try again?

Yeah, maybe.

You're not changing for me.

I'm not changing for you.

This is who we are.

I always do this. I always
give myself to people like you.

Men who say the right things

and then, you know, they
pull away when you need them.

I can't do it anymore.

Mia.

We can't do this here.
This is where I work.

Then we'll go
somewhere else. Talk.

No, I can't. I have a thing.

Okay.

Where you wanna go?

It doesn't matter.

Just come with me.

Fucking
hell. Thank God.

Hi.

Hey there.

You okay?

Boy. Looks like you
had as good a week as I had.

Something like that.

Come here.

Yeah. It was a total shit show.

Shit.

We'll be lucky if we make
the summer launch.

Honestly. It's just
not looking good.

God. I'm so sorry.

Tell me about you.

Well, my colleagues don't
think that I can do my job

and be with you
at the same time.

That's ridiculous.

They've been absolutely awful.

And I... fired Chip.

Wow.

I know.

And I've just been sitting here
thinking, you know, maybe it's time.

Maybe it's just time I
finally leave this place.

I don't have anyone
over there anymore,

and it just doesn't feel
like a home anymore.

I don't know. I just don't
think it's worth saving.

I'm sorry. This is not
what you wanted to hear.

No, no, no.

What if we went in
a different direction?

What do you mean?

Well, I've been thinking about
UBA as this long-term investment.

Pays off in ten, 15,
20 years down the line.

But... it doesn't
really make any sense anymore.

You know, you're not happy.

And I'm gonna need to start throwing
a ton of money at Hyperion very soon.

What if we sell?

Sell? UBA?

Right after the
deal goes through.

The whole thing.

We... There's no more sports division.

No more UBA+. You sell
off the scripted content.

You sell off the movie franchises,
the NFL contracts. All of it.

Then we start over
from the ground up.

We build something new on
our terms centered on news.

Exactly the way we want.

You're serious.

You have been wanting
to run things for a long time.

Maybe you start right now.

This needs to be
off-book. Nothing in writing.

No paper trail before
the deal closes.

We need to know the
actual value of UBA's assets.

The content library,
the licenses, all of it.

Well, it sounds like
you're planning a fire sale.

You want to put the
old girl out to pasture?

I'd be happy to help.

- Donny.
- Hey, Chip.

- How are you?
- Good to see you, guys.

Hey.

Yeah.

Hey, guys.

- Thanks for coming.
- Hey, Chip.

How
you doing? You doing okay?

- Hey.
- Hey.

You okay?

I don't know.

Alex just fired me.

What?

Are you serious?

It's a long story.

Well...
what happened?

Paul Marks happened.

My God.

All right.

Um...

Look, I... I might call you about
something that I need your help with.

Yeah, sure.

I mean, my schedule's
wide open, so...

Okay, look, I'm sorry.

Thanks.

- Is Mia coming?
- I don't know.

I checked her office,
but I guess not.

There you go.

Thanks, honey.

Um, first, I just want to thank
everyone for taking the time

out of this crazy
week t-to come tonight.

I think one of the hardest things
about this pandemic, for me,

was not being able to honor the
anniversary all together in person.

So I'm really
grateful that we could gather this year.

To Hannah.

To Hannah.

To Hannah.
