INSPIRED BY TRUE EVENTS

Omotenashi.

Omotenashi.

The RX is beautiful this year.

It's been completely redesigned.

Have you seen the interior?

No.

Go ahead.

Omotenashi.

It's the Japanese art of hospitality.

Omotenashi means to place the human front and centre.

That's the core design value at Lexus.

Ambient lighting is fully reactive.

Multicoloured LEDs...

THE COST OF HEAVEN

You're cheating!

They never wait for me, it's not fair.

I'll tell you a trick.

If you work hard, and practice,

one day you'll be the fastest.

And they'll be asking you to wait.

- Really? - Of course.

Zak.

Santa's workshop called.

They're wondering what you want for Christmas.

I told them you already had everything.

That's not true!

I was wrong?

Very wrong.

Call them back.

What time is it at the North Pole?

Isn't it late there, Farrah?

They'll be up, but not for long.

So, should I call them?

Yes.

Hello?

Is this Santa's workshop?

Yes, I'm calling for Zakaria Belkacem.

They put me on hold.

What do you want?

The Lego Fire Station.

The little one?

No, the big one.

Naturally.

Yes, I'm here.

Yes, hello. I'm calling for Zakaria Belkacem.

I said he had everything,

but he doesn't have the Lego Fire Station.

No, the big one.

Yes, they're here too.

I'll ask.

Nadine, what do you want?

A telescope.

A telescope.

Nadine wants a telescope.

I think it's to spy on the neighbour boy.

I think she's in love.

No, it's to gaze at the stars.

Sorry, to gaze at the stars.

No, to gaze at the stars. My mistake.

Yes, and... no, I'm not done.

There's one more child here.

His name is Sami.

I'll ask. Sami, what do you want?

You're not funny, Dad.

- OK. He doesn't want anything. - I want a PS5!

No rest for Santa!

He wants a PS5. I know, it's a lame present, but...

You're lame.

Hey, hey, hey!

Careful what you say.

That's what he wants, so we'll go with that.

Great. No, I'm not done.

There's still Farrah.

Don't forget Farrah, she could get angry.

And you don't want to see her angry.

So.

I believe Farrah wants...

Jewellery.

No.

- Yep. - No.

- Jewellery. - No.

Yes, she says yes!

She wants... a ring?

Yes.

With diamonds, yes.

Three diamonds on the ring, please.

Yes, that's all. Thank you.

You didn't ask for anything, Dad.

No, because I have you guys,

and frankly, that's more than enough!

You have one new message.

Nacer, it's Rachid again.

Do you ever answer your phone?

I'm calling about the money you invested for me.

Stock prices are taking a nosedive...

- Mr. Belkacem. - Ms. Dupuis.

What can I do for you?

The school called my wife

and said there was an issue with our last tuition payment.

I called my bank,

and they told me I've been the victim of identity theft.

They had to freeze our accounts. I'm so sorry.

I wanted to apologize in person.

Mr. Belkacem.

This isn't the first time you've had a late payment.

Our clientele at the Academy is very exclusive.

Perhaps another school might be better suited

to your family's situation.

Ms. Dupuis, I have an issue with my bank.

If you wish, we'll call them

and they can confirm.

These are exceptional circumstances, and I ask for your understanding.

Will there be anything else?

No, that will be all.

Have a nice day.

Hello, Gisèle.

Long lunch! It's past 2 p.m.

That gizmo tells time? I thought it was a toy.

Far from it.

It's got an ECG, it could save my life.

As long as you have cell service. Otherwise you're doomed.

Is Richard in?

In his office.

Can I have a word?

Have a seat.

I don't want to waste your time,

so I'll cut to the chase.

I think it's time to review my salary.

We talked about this, Nacer, you're at the top of your pay scale.

I understand.

But to be frank,

I haven't had a raise since 2019.

Since you became my boss.

The cost of living has exploded.

On paper, my salary's the same, but I'm making less.

And with the pandemic layoffs, I have more responsibilities.

I'm not complaining,

but I'd like it to be taken into account.

I promise it hasn't gone unnoticed,

but HR handles salaries. Not me.

My hands are tied.

I started here before you, Richard.

In another world, I could be sitting in your chair.

What are you insinuating?

Nothing. I'm just saying we're equally competent.

But my salary is capped at a level that doesn't reflect

all the work I do for the company.

OK, um...

Can you keep a secret?

Of course.

I got some news from Toronto about the TTC contract.

Nothing's signed yet,

but it's looking good.

That's great news.

Indeed it is.

I mention this because if it works out,

we'll need to hire a project manager.

If you're interested, I could put your name forward.

- Are you serious? - Very.

And since it's a managerial position,

it would come with a hefty raise.

Well, then.

That would be perfect timing.

If I can help in any way, let me know.

We'll start by getting the TTC contract signed.

If it goes forward, I'll let you know.

- Sound good? - It sounds perfect.

Then let's do it.

Thank you, Richard. Truly.

It means a lot, what you're doing for me.

Hey, Sami, where's your dad?

Over there.

It's quite beautiful.

Here he is!

You're late!

- You go, next time. - I will.

So, will we reach our goal?

If you sell enough, we will.

They're selling like Rachid's tchareks!

Then you must be selling tons!

Have you seen his new car?

Gotta sell a lot of tchareks to afford a car like that.

Nacer!

You can't hide behind your voicemail now.

- Peace be with you. - And you.

Does Nacer return your calls?

Because he never returns mine.

How are you, Rachid?

I was just about to call you.

Ah...

I'm going for a smoke. Come with me?

Well, here we are.

What can I do for you?

I want my money. I can see I won't make a profit

on the investments you made for me.

It's way too early, just wait.

The market's down right now,

but I guarantee it'll bounce back.

I know the market's down,

and I'm not blaming you.

But Caroline and I think real estate is safer.

We want to buy a duplex

and we need cash for the down payment.

Didn't you tell me you wanted a long-term investment?

I'd have done something else for short-term.

Sorry, but I've changed my mind.

You did, or Caroline did?

What does that mean?

What's the difference if it's Caroline or me?

No difference. You're right.

But I can't cash in an investment just like that.

It'll take some time.

How long?

I'll look at it with my broker and get back to you.

OK.

I don't mean to put you on the spot.

Don't worry about me, I'm a big boy.

Well, all right then.

Hey, boys!

We made $15,476 tonight.

Terrific.

We exceeded our goal.

Praise God.

"Sleeping money is dead money."

Let me invest it, I'll turn a tidy profit.

I've got a better idea.

Let's go to the casino and put it all on red.

"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

That's served us well so far, no?

That's the old mentality. You know Ben Novak?

The Oracle of Canada!

Know what he says?

Money is like sex, don't save it for when you're old.

He's right.

We'll use ours to renovate the summer camp.

There you go.

Come help me?

Don't forget,

you're taking this to the bank, not the casino.

It'll have a nice long sleep.

Let it snore.

Other than that,

how's life, Nacer?

It's fine.

The kids are all first in their class.

Farrah's well.

And I'm getting a promotion,

as a manager.

Hmm.

All good news.

But you? How are you?

Like I said.

Farrah, the kids, work, all is well.

Hmm...

All is well. Thank God.

Thank God, yeah.

That's good, then!

Distance travelled: 53 kilometres.

Your performance is better than average.

- I need cash. - Who doesn't?

You want to cash in?

I have no choice, I'm in a bind.

It's worse than you think.

Why?

Remember the contract we signed with your buddy?

- Rachid? - Yeah, Rachid.

You guaranteed his investment,

and he put down $100K.

So?

Your investments have tanked,

so if you cash in and give him back his $100K,

you'll have nothing left.

What if you cash in your RRSPs?

No, they're my wife's. Can't touch those.

Is your raise confirmed?

Of course, I just started the job.

Here.

Ask your boss to fill this out, and bring it back with a pay stub.

Then I should be able to help you.

My boss is on holiday for two weeks.

Under the circumstances, it's the best I can do.

Congratulations on the promotion!

Thanks.

- Mr. Belkacem. - Ms. Dupuis.

What can I do for you?

I wanted to apologize, again,

for being late with the tuition fees.

As I said, I was unaware there was an issue with my bank.

I can't tell you the damage it's done.

Hmm.

I just hope this misunderstanding is resolved.

Thank you.

You can just mail it, next time.

I wanted to apologize in person.

But also...

I'd like to make a donation to the school's Foundation.

This is very generous, Mr. Belkacem.

Let me be clear, Ms. Dupuis.

The Academy is exactly the environment our children belong in.

So sorry to keep you waiting.

No worries!

I just got here.

Do you know Mr. Belkacem?

I don't think so.

He has three kids here.

My son Felix is in first grade.

Mine are spread out,

which is probably why we haven't met.

Mr. Belkacem just made a donation to the Foundation.

A lovely surprise!

Really? That's great.

Just a small donation.

No donation is too small for our Foundation, believe me.

Sarah is Chair of the Foundation's board.

Nacer Belkacem.

Sarah Novak.

Novak...

Any relation to Ben Novak?

He's my father. Do you know him?

Are you serious?

The Oracle of Canada?

I have his book.

He's an inspiration to me.

He'd be glad to hear that.

- Shall we? - Let's go.

A pleasure to have met you.

The pleasure is mine.

Have a good afternoon.

Actually...

Next weekend, we're throwing a small party for Foundation donors.

It would be wonderful if you came.

Now that you're one of us.

With great pleasure.

Great, great. Pascale will send you the details.

So nice to meet you. Take care.

Now write "crocodile."

What does "crocodile" start with?

Is Felix your friend?

Not really.

Too bad.

Why do you want me to be his friend? You know him?

No, but I know his grandfather.

Ben Novak.

Did you know that Ben Novak is one of the richest men in Canada?

Just because he's rich,

it doesn't mean his grandson is nice.

- That's not what I'm saying. - What are you saying?

I'm saying I wouldn't have met someone like that at public school.

Ben Novak was your age when he came to Canada.

Do you know how much money he had with him?

None.

That's impossible. How could he eat?

It's an expression. It means he was very poor.

But by working very, very hard,

he made a place for himself.

Like you.

Yeah, like me.

You have to work, too, you haven't done a thing.

- Keep making your F's. - They're not F's.

- What are they? - They're T's.

T for "totodile."

Of course.

Why did we park so far away?

We can't show up here in the Dodge.

Why not?

That's ridiculous.

I don't care about what cars people drive.

Yeah, but you're perfect.

The world is not like you, Farrah.

Coming?

Come on.

Nacer's working on Toronto's new light rail.

It's a huge project.

What about you?

Laury runs the radiology clinic at Queen Mary Hospital

I teach literature. At McGill.

I studied literature, in another life.

Ah, oui?

I may get back to it once the kids are older.

Sorry, may I borrow Nacer?

- May I be excused? - Of course.

- Nice meeting you. - Same here.

Matt and Laurie are great.

Yes, they really are.

I love these get-togethers.

The Foundation allows us to connect with the other parents.

Otherwise, we just drop the kids off, pick them up,

and never meet anyone.

- Michael. - Yes.

This is Nacer Belkacem.

Ah! Mr. Belkacem!

My wife has told me about you.

Welcome to the club.

Thank you.

I'm glad to be here.

Your house is gorgeous.

Blame Sarah for that.

She did everything.

My husband is a busy man.

And, uh, I don't think he cares much about architecture.

Well, I do love beautiful things.

I'm just not the one who knows how to make them.

Sarah tells me you follow her father's work.

I work with him, I'm his trading director.

My husband's work.

How boring.

I'll leave you to it.

Lovely to see you again.

You're a trader yourself?

Oh, I invest my own money,

and the funds of a few acquaintances.

Nothing like your volume.

Ah, don't be fooled by volume, Nacer.

If I followed my gut, I would do just like you.

Because you're actually managing wealth. I'm just managing risk.

It must be hard with institutional investors.

Oh, God. It's ungodly.

I'll give you an example, but, um, you didn't hear this from me.

Right now, Ben is moving forex and derivatives.

Well, he's actually moving forex against derivatives, right?

He just shorted oil prices massively,

against the US dollar.

The amount of time I spend on the phone reassuring my clients... It's crazy.

I mean, I'm no longer a market operator. I'm a phone operator. You know?

I can understand their concern.

Betting against safe-haven assets isn't common right now, is it?

Yes. That's exactly what gets Ben excited.

He loves to win when everybody thinks he's gonna fail.

He's kind of ruthless in that way.

For him, the end justifies the means. Always.

I do find it hard to follow, sometimes.

I don't have that kind of vindictive drive.

That's because you don't come from the same place.

Is that right?

Of course.

Your father-in-law came from nothing.

He had to learn to fight.

It's the only way to make it when you have nothing.

I don't mean to offend,

but I don't think you came from nothing.

Well, guilty as charged.

But, I mean, none of that matters in the end,

not in finance at least.

The market is the great equalizer. I truly do believe that.

All you need to be successful

is intelligence and analytical skills.

It's the ultimate level playing field.

You really believe that?

Look around, do you think we all stand the same chance?

Well, you seem to really like this house.

Who do you think paid for it?

And I'll give you a hint: It wasn't me and it wasn't Sarah either.

Ben paid for it. And he came from nothing.

You said it yourself.

He got on the market with the few bucks he had,

and he climbed his way all the way to the top.

Now, if he can do it,

I mean, Nacer, there's no excuses.

Anybody can.

It was really nice chatting with you.

"Oil Price Forecast, 2020-2030."

Where were you? I was looking everywhere.

I went for a smoke.

You're soaked. Are you okay?

Yeah.

It's hot in here.

Come, come.

Don't be shy.

Hello, everyone.

I hope you're having a lovely time.

I know I am.

I'd like to thank you for accepting our invitation.

It truly is a privilege

to mingle with St. George Academy's cream of the crop.

As you know, Pascale, our amazing headmistress,

has a great vision for the future.

Now, that vision doesn't, um...

shall we simply say it doesn't come cheap.

As an architect, you can take my word for it.

That's why Michael and I have decided

to donate $100,000 to the Academy's Foundation...

$100K? Are they nuts?

That's pocket change for them.

Thank you, very kind of you.

But what would really make me happy

is if I could call Pascale at the end of the evening

to tell her some of you have decided to donate as well.

And please, believe me,

I've said it before and I will say it again:

No donation is too small for our Foundation.

Well, Sarah and Michael, thank you for a wonderful afternoon

and your remarkable leadership.

Grace and I would like to follow in your footsteps,

and we'd like to pledge $75,000.

Robert, thank you so much.

So much. Thank you!

Amazing, amazing!

$75K...

What a pleasure it's been meeting all you amazing people.

Laurie and I would like to give $50,000 to the project.

On a professor's salary?

What do we do?

We could give $500, but that's it.

We're not giving $500! Are you kidding?

What?

Let's just leave. We have nothing to offer.

Sarah said no donation is too small.

Have you been hearing these numbers?

Marc and I will donate $35,000.

I wish we could do more.

Thank you, really. So much appreciated.

Let's just go.

We don't have your means,

but since no donation is too small,

we'll offer $500 towards the project.

Thank you, Farrah.

You're welcome.

Thank you so much to all the donors tonight.

It really means a lot.

Yeah, it's really amazing to see everyone being so generous.

Which is why I would like to give $15,000.

Thanks for waiting.

I'm sorry if I upset you.

But $500 is all we can afford, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Well, I'm ashamed!

Why?

Because we're better than that.

Tell me I've given you the life you dreamed of when we met.

Nacer, I never asked you for anything.

I live with the man I love,

I have three wonderful children.

I don't care about the rest.

Good for you.

Good for you, if you're living the life you want.

But it's not enough for me. I want more!

I'm about to turn 50, and my life is pathetic.

I'm a loser!

That's how you see our life together?

You know that's not what I mean.

Give me the car keys.

You wanted to see me, Richard?

Yes, have a seat.

It all played out upstairs.

They decided to go with someone younger.

It's about optics,

to show the company's dynamism.

You're 50 years old, Nacer.

That doesn't fit with their new branding.

We're the same age, you and I.

The new branding doesn't apply to you?

Well, I have an MBA. And I had managerial experience

when I came to GDT.

The company's been giving me managerial duties for years.

At a cut rate, by the way.

But the day I ask to be paid what I'm worth,

I suddenly become too old?

Or is there something else going on?

Excuse me?

You know exactly what I mean.

Your salary is competitive, by the way.

I really want to help you,

but my hands are tied.

Why don't you update your CV?

Get your MBA!

God helps those who help themselves.

I've got three kids, I'm working full time here.

It'll take me ten years to get an MBA.

Will I fit the branding better in ten years?

I'm sorry, I don't know what to say.

Who got the job?

Jean-Marc.

I trained him, remember?

Now I'll be working under him?

What can I say? Jean-Marc checks all the boxes.

- They're technicalities, but... - Technicalities!

My life hinges on those technicalities!

I understand your frustration,

but you won't raise your voice in my office.

I didn't know Jean-Marc had an MBA.

He hasn't graduated yet, but he's working on it.

I'll be brief.

It's thanks to all of you that we signed this contract.

I'm proud of you all.

I'd like to thank my team. I see Élise over there.

I see John here, at the left hand of God.

And Nacer, who never counted his hours.

And big thanks to Jean-Marc, who has really stepped up.

Jean-Marc, what did you tell the team when we started work on the contract?

"Be realistic, demand the impossible!"

It's going to be a busy year...

All the world's a stage, Shakespeare used to say.

And we're the sum of the roles that we play on that stage.

Trading requires a free will.

But we no longer have that

if we relive scripts from the past.

All those roles that we've learned in the course of our lives,

the role of the down and out person, pressing for success,

the role of the aggrieved spouse, the role of the victim...

BANKING AUTHORIZATION

The challenge here is that you need to emancipate yourself

from the roles that create problems for you.

You have to create new roles that mirror your desired goals and identity.

If you can place yourself in situations

where you routinely practice being the person you want to be,

believe me...

you make that person your own.

The market is volatile right now.

Your partner understands that leverage can multiply losses?

It can add up fast.

Leverage can multiply profits, too.

Yeah.

I'll need his authorization for the transaction.

I took an Uber yesterday.

It was only an eight-minute drive,

but by the end, the driver wanted to give me his savings.

He wanted me to invest it for him.

I can't tell you how often that happens,

but my answer's always the same. No!

Know why?

Because they want me to make their money for them.

They want me to do all the work, make all the decisions,

while they just pocket the money.

Listen, I have nothing against hard work, far from it.

But what I cannot stand, Nacer,

is to be responsible for other people's happiness or misery.

I don't have the energy for that.

You want to make money, no problem,

make your own decisions, I'll be happy to execute them.

But don't ask me what to do.

That way, I keep my feet on the ground

when my clients make a lot of money,

and I sleep soundly when they lose even more.

Most of my colleagues think I'm nuts.

But they always want more, no matter how much they have.

But me?

I'm happy with what I have.

That's how I found my balance.

You're not exactly poor.

No.

That's true.

What about you?

Are you poor?

I always thought that if I worked hard enough,

things would happen for me.

I've worked all my life,

and I'm still waiting for something to happen.

I can't wait anymore.

Just think about what you're doing.

I'm not asking you to make a decision for me.

I just want you to execute it.

Laetitia?

Three copies of the brokerage contract please.

- Shit, it's impossible. - Mom!

Don't start, please, I'm not in the mood.

Zak...

And make sure only she hears.

I need to make a call.

I'll be right back.

- Nacer? - Thibaud.

I just checked the oil prices.

Am I dreaming, or did I just make $8,000?

Let me check.

You're wrong, Nacer.

With your 5-to-1 leverage, you actually made $40,000.

Oh!

Holy shit.

You can get out now if you want.

You made a good move, but oil is a volatile commodity.

No, no.

Rachid and I gave ourselves until the end of the month.

Don't touch anything.

It's your money, you decide.

Ciao, Nacer.

Ciao, Thibaud.

Hello.

- Hey. - Hey, Dad.

Had a good day?

Looking for something?

Where's the car?

Right over there.

Where?

Right there.

- Where? - In front of you.

Not funny Dad, stop.

Not funny? What about this?

- Whose is that? - It's ours.

- You bought a Lexus? - I sure did.

Wow!

So I can park in front of the school now?

You bet!

Hey...

It was falling apart. The engine barely started.

To think that the kids...

Don't bring the kids into this.

We can barely afford tuition,

we certainly can't afford a Mercedes.

Lexus.

Why not a Rolls-Royce!

Are we buying whatever we want now?

If I want to be respected, I need to look the part.

Don't you get that?

Do you hear yourself?

You really think a car will bring you respect?

It's my money, I'll do what I want with it.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah!

You dare say that?

Do you know how much I've sacrificed for you since we came here?

Who takes care of your kids while you make your money?

Your maid?

Stop playing the martyr, I can't stand it.

You know what? You're right.

You're not giving me the life I dreamed of.

I don't understand, Thibaud. Oil prices are still dropping.

Russia's offloading their US dollars,

sending investors rushing to safe-haven assets.

Gas prices are exploding.

- Shit. - Yeah.

I hate to say this, but you need to top up your account.

You're below your margin.

By how much?

$26K. I'm rounding down.

You have four days to deposit it.

Four days? That's not enough time!

Give me a few weeks.

I'm not taking on the risk for you.

I can liquidate if you wish,

but with your 5-to-1 leverage, you'll owe $250K.

I warned you.

Losses can add up quickly playing that game.

Not for the faint of heart.

Hello? Nacer?

Yeah.

You still there?

I'm here.

Would...

Would the RRSPs be enough?

To cover it?

Your wife's RRSPs?

Yes.

I have to withhold tax on that, let me check.

After taxes, you'd have $28K, so it's enough.

- Nacer. - Yes?

Do you want me to do it?

Sure. Do it.

OK.

Anything else?

No. Thanks, Thibaud.

Give me your snow pants and go wash your hands.

Here.

- Why is Rafik here? - No idea.

Bachir and Ahmed are here too.

Really?

Quite the welcoming committee.

To what do I owe the honour?

Sit down, Nacer.

Oh, is this your house now?

Nacer.

Sit.

Who died?

What's up?

That's what I'd like to know, Nacer.

I've known you long enough to see that something's wrong.

I'm doing great, I don't know what you mean.

I had to make a deposit for the summer camp renovations.

So?

I wanted to know if we had enough funds.

I checked our accounts.

How much is the contractor asking?

Stop, Nacer.

We saw your new car.

First, change your tone,

and then tell me what my car has to do with it.

I'm sorry, Farrah...

Would you mind leaving us?

Yes, I would mind.

Nacer. What's going on?

Ask them, they seem to know.

You never deposited the money from the benefit.

There's $15,000 missing.

You know he'd never do such a thing.

Nacer?

I have the statements.

You tell me. Where's the $15,000?

Because I looked, and I couldn't find it.

I had to pay the kids' tuition.

I didn't know...

I didn't know what to do, I...

But I'll pay it all back.

I'm not a thief.

You could've asked us for help.

You know we're always there for you.

We would've found a solution.

What if the accountant had seen this before us?

You'd be answering the cops' questions right now.

We couldn't check all the accounts. But we will.

Will there be any more surprises?

You sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

What about Rachid? I suppose you lost his money?

I'll pay it all back.

No problem.

I'll pay it all back.

You have to understand that we have obligations.

We're giving you one month to pay it back.

If we don't get the money by then,

we'll have to get the police involved.

Can I help?

From now on, we manage the expenses together.

We shouldn't be in this position.

Stealing money from a community group...

Who does that?

You could go to jail.

What do I do if they lock you up?

Did you even think about the children?

All I do is think about them.

Tomorrow I want you to cash in my RRSPs

to pay back the Association.

We're not letting this lie around.

What are you doing?

Isn't it obvious?

Pick up the fucking phone, Thibaud.

The customer you are trying to reach...

Fuck!

If I don't pay the $48K, what happens?

I'll have to liquidate your investment.

With your leverage, you'll owe 350K.

You have that amount in your account?

You know I don't, Thibaud.

Then the bank will seize your house.

I'm sorry,

but they're not the sentimental type.

Ben Novak!

He made the same bet as me.

Ben Novak? Are you kidding?

Hey, Nacer.

I'm sorry, but you're not Ben Novak.

Ciao.

Bonjour! Hi.

Hello, ma'am.

I'd like to see Mr. Novak, please.

- You have an appointment? - No.

But it's important.

I'm sorry, but you need to make an appointment.

Of course. But I'm a friend of his daughter, Sarah.

Our children go to the same school.

Mr. Novak's grandson, Felix, is my son's best friend.

I'd hate to cause you any problems, ma'am.

Who shall I say is here?

Belkacem. Nacer Belkacem.

Have a seat.

Thank you, ma'am.

Failure is so overrated, Nacer.

I've never learned from my mistakes.

I only ever learned by fighting.

And that's exactly what you need to do now.

You need to fight.

That's the only way to avoid failure.

I'd like to fight, but...

How?

I'm ashamed to say so, but I took your son-in-law's advice, and...

I lost everything.

Michael...

is a useless piece of shit, Nacer.

He hasn't worked a day in his life.

Whatever he has...

someone gave it to him.

It's obvious that he set you back.

It's crystal clear.

That little prick.

I'm sorry.

I'll make sure it doesn't happen again, ever.

You've had a hiccup.

But it doesn't change a thing.

The game isn't over, Nacer.

You have to fight.

But you have to fight smart.

Nacer.

Look around you.

Where's the money?

How do you get to it?

I don't know.

Think, Nacer. Think!

Your family needs you.

Don't you want them to feel secure?

You have to be fucking ruthless if you want to survive.

Are you serious?

Dead serious.

Novak asset management. How can I help you?

Listen carefully.

We have Ben Novak's grandson, you understand?

We have Ben Novak's grandson. Write this down.

What?

Write this down.

Yes. I...

If Ben Novak wants to see his grandson again, he must pay us $500K.

Repeat it!

If Mr. Novak wants to see his grandson, he must pay $500K.

He must pay in bitcoin. You understand?

The money must be sent in bitcoin.

If Ben Novak doesn't pay within 24 hours,

he'll never see his grandson again.

OK.

Go.

EMERGENCY ALERT CHILD KIDNAPPING

Hey. The lights.

Turn on the lights!

SUMMER CAMP

When will I see my Dad?

Tomorrow.

He needs to rest tonight.

Come here.

What's that?

You don't know what it is?

It's Kraft Dinner.

My mom says it's poison.

Taste it, you'll see.

So, is it poison?

Good, eh?

Super good!

Of course.

Take your time.

I'm ready.

You're okay? Not too cold?

No.

Am I going to school tomorrow?

No, you get the day off.

Since when do kids sulk when they don't have school?

There's a magician coming tomorrow.

Everybody will get to see him except for me.

Did you know I'm a magician, too?

I don't believe you.

I am.

They call me the Masked Magician.

- Know what this is? - A dollar.

You want it?

Close your hand.

The trouble with money

is that sometimes you lose it as quickly as you get it.

Where is it?

I don't know. Look under your pillow?

You know what you have to do with it?

Make it work.

Rub it.

Anything happening?

No.

Rub some more.

I'll help you, hand it over.

How'd you do that?

I didn't do anything.

The money was working all by itself.

That's what's good about money.

When you have it, it works for you.

But when you don't have any,

you work for it.

Your grandfather knows that.

You know my grandfather?

No, I don't.

Go to sleep.

Good night.

See you tomorrow.

- Nacer? - How are you, Farrah?

I'm okay. You?

Sorry, I saw you called, but I've been swamped.

It's okay. How's it going in Toronto?

Great.

We met with the TTC.

It couldn't have gone better.

Richard is on cloud nine.

Honestly,

they took a risk promoting me to project manager.

You deserve it.

Thanks.

Now I have to deliver.

I know you will.

But tell me, have you seen the news?

What news?

Felix, Sarah's son.

He was kidnapped today.

Really?

What do you mean?

That's horrible. What happened?

I don't know.

Felix wasn't at school when his dad went to pick him up.

Everyone is so worried here.

Zak's really afraid.

He wouldn't sleep in his room tonight.

Fuck...

Uh...

Do they know who did this?

I don't know.

I pray they'll find him safe and sound.

God willing.

God willing, yeah.

Nacer, I...

I know the last months have been hard.

But I can't wait for you to come home.

I miss you.

I miss you too.

All the world's a stage, Shakespeare used to say.

And we're the sum of the roles that we play on that stage.

Trading requires a free will.

But we no longer have that

if we relive scripts from the past.

All those roles that we've learned in the course of our lives,

the role of the down and out person, pressing for success,

the role of the aggrieved spouse, the role of the victim.

The challenge here is that you need to emancipate yourself

from the roles that create problems for you.

You have to create new roles that mirror your desired goals and identity.

You need to live scripts of your own.

If you can place yourself in situations

where you routinely practice being the person you want to be,

believe me...

you make that person your own.

Felix?

Shit.

Felix!

Felix!

Felix!

Felix.

If this is a joke, it's not funny.

Felix!

Felix!

Felix!

Hey!

What are you doing?!

You can't leave like that!

Come! I've been looking all over for you.

- You're hurting me! - Move!

Come on!

Nacer, you're hurting me.

What did you call me?

What did you call me?

Huh?

Never call me that again!

I'm done, where do I put this?

Next to the sink.

Can I call my parents?

No.

Why not?

They're busy.

- How do you know? - I spoke with them earlier.

If you'd been here, you could have too.

Are they coming to get me?

Not yet!

New developments today in the kidnapping of Felix Boyd-Novak,

the grandson of billionaire Ben Novak.

Montreal police are still searching for the seven-year-old boy.

But in a major twist,

the Novak family has held a press conference

informing the kidnappers that the ransom has been paid.

Oh!

Come on.

Come on, Felix.

Felix...

Go have a look down there.

Is that Zak's mom?

Yes.

She looks nice.

She's very nice.

She doesn't deserve...

Doesn't deserve what?

You did something bad?

Why?

Because I'm an idiot.

- That's funny? - Yes.

I think she'll understand if you apologize.

You think so?

You're a good boy.

You really are, Felix.

Give this to your dad.

You're giving him your watch?

It's his.

He lent it to you?

Felix.

Wait for me here.

Daddy, you're back!

Yes.

Daddy!

Sweetheart.

I'm sorry.
