00:00Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for $1.3 billion, just need your signature
00:09to close it.
00:10Boss?
00:11Boss?
00:12What?
00:13Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
00:19What crush?
00:20You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
00:22We've been hunting for her for eight years with no luck.
00:25What if she's married already?
00:26Well yeah, she's incredible.
00:28Of course others would see that too.
00:31Not happening.
00:32Where are you going?
00:38To the racetrack.
00:39Boss!
00:40To the racetrack.
00:41You win!
00:42Yes!
00:43Boss!
01:03The trading system is down!
01:05What?
01:08The trading system is down!
01:12Did you?
01:18The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
01:20The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
01:22All my stop losses are firing like crazy.
01:25We're down $100 million already.
01:29The computer thinks this is normal.
01:30I can't do anything no matter what I try.
01:32If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
01:35Don't panic.
01:36The boss is here.
01:38Stop staring and get out of the chair.
01:40Go!
01:41Come on.
02:08Yesterday's rate cut didn't make it into our baseline indicators.
02:12So the model thinks up is down and down is up.
02:16So naturally it's doing exactly the opposite of what it should.
02:27Boss?
02:28Even you can't solve it?
02:30Sorry.
02:31Food coma's hitting hard.
02:33Mind grabbing me a Coke?
02:37Who does she think she's fooling?
02:40What does a woman possibly know about all this?
02:43If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately.
02:44You're going to eat those words faster than Jessica's eating those chips.
02:51Here you go, boss.
02:54Relax, people.
02:55I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
02:58Go home.
02:59Get some sleep.
03:00And with that, we're gone.
03:01Thank you, boss.
03:02You truly are the MVP.
03:03All right.
03:04Let's go, folks.
03:05Come on.
03:06Let her work.
03:07Let's go.
03:08Let's go.
03:09Let's go.
03:10Let's go.
03:11Let's go.
03:12Let's go.
03:13Let's go.
03:14Let's go.
03:15Let's go.
03:16Let's go.
03:17Let's go.
03:18Let's go.
03:19Let's go.
03:20Let's go.
03:21Let's go.
03:22Let's go.
03:23Let's go.
03:26Let's go.
03:48Nailed it.
03:50The model's fixed?
04:10The company account?
04:11Haas is insane!
04:12Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
04:16Time to update that resume, Tom.
04:17Or was all that big talk just hot air?
04:20Mark, who is our boss, really?
04:22Well, this is usual, Tom.
04:24Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
04:27Her algorithm is the reason why T.B.'s security is a titan.
04:30What on earth are we doing during work hours?
04:35And you are?
04:36Meet the chairman's son, your new CEO.
04:40Of course, his talents have the board's complete endorsement.
04:44And last time I checked, these are prime trading hours, aren't they?
04:48Well, it's actually funny you mention that, but-
04:49You are fired.
04:51What?
04:52Here at T.B., we do not tolerate mediocrity.
04:58Here at T.B., we do not tolerate mediocrity.
05:02Only the best work here.
05:04We made it here on pure talent.
05:07You want to talk about mediocrity?
05:09Let's discuss that trust fund that bought your position-
05:11Did you just hit her?
05:15What the hell's wrong with you?
05:16I'm not going to waste my time talking the garbage.
05:22Here is your hush money.
05:26Take it and get out.
05:28You know what?
05:29Here's a little extra.
05:32Use it to buy yourself some makeup and cover up that bruise.
05:34No one wants to see that.
05:35Drop it.
05:36Does school handle this when she's back?
05:39The board paid insane money for her brain.
05:42Jackson wouldn't have the guts to touch her.
05:44Listen up, everybody.
05:47The market is a savage wilderness.
05:48It is a dog-eat-dog world.
05:50It is eat or be eaten.
05:52You need to be apex predators, not little, fluffy, performance-faking rabbits.
05:59Those will be eaten, but the real alphas, the real rainmakers among you will be rewarded
06:07accordingly.
06:13On top of the leaderboard is Caitlyn.
06:18Where's my superstar?
06:19That would be me.
06:22Caitlyn.
06:23Is this Kayla Twist?
06:26Are you a Kayla Twist fan?
06:27She has a concert tonight.
06:28Would you want to go?
06:29God, yes.
06:30This is perfect.
06:31It's perfect.
06:32Go now, before you're late.
06:34And as soon as the concert's over, clean out your desk, because you're fired.
06:38What?
06:39Why?
06:40The Nikkei opens during concert hours.
06:41You know, I figured a trader wouldn't put Kayla Twist above making trades.
06:46Those numbers must be fake.
06:47And who's your boss?
06:48I need to meet the clown that runs this circus.
06:51It's Jessica.
06:52She's here.
07:08You are fired.
07:12Move your damn foot and explain what rock you crawled out from under.
07:15Who I am doesn't matter.
07:17All that matters is that you are fired.
07:18Are you certain about firing me?
07:20You think you're some unicorn employee that this place will crash and burn without your
07:23precious brain?
07:24You wouldn't say that, exactly.
07:25Jessica hasn't slept because she was busy saving us nine figures because of a bug.
07:29Yeah, and we even made a profit.
07:32You expect me to believe that?
07:33Her name wasn't even on those reports.
07:35So take your headphones and beat it.
07:38Can't trash ruin my shoes.
07:42And to you defenders, finance takes timing and judgment, and sticking up for her shows
07:48that you have neither.
07:49So pack your crap and follow her out the door.
07:52Leave them alone.
07:53They have nothing to do with this.
07:54I'll go.
07:57What?
07:58Is office drama more important than making money now?
08:08Susan!
08:14Boss, she's high up in trading.
08:18Firing her out of nowhere might be problematic.
08:22Susan, Susan, Susan.
08:25Look around.
08:26Finance is a men's game.
08:27Okay, as far as I'm concerned, she was just sitting there warm in a chair and cashing
08:32paychecks.
08:33All right, I did us a favor.
08:34I just squashed that bug a while ago.
08:40Dad, how's it going?
08:42I forgot to mention to you, there's this one woman exec you absolutely cannot mess with.
08:50Woman executive?
08:52Don't tell me it's...
08:56How many women executives do we have, Susan?
09:00Just two women in executive roles.
09:03These are in class.
09:05She's a talent the board paid top dollar for.
09:08A quant model.
09:09She built it from scratch.
09:11And keeping her is non-negotiable.
09:13Our marketing dominance depends on it.
09:16Jesse, Harvard PhD, Star Trader.
09:20Dad, are you talking about Jesse?
09:23Jesse.
09:24I didn't fire Jesse, did I?
09:26Actually, Jessica.
09:27She's our golden goose.
09:28Now you need to...
09:29Dad, you just focus on getting better.
09:31I'll make sure she stays, all right?
09:35Susan, tell Jesse to come to my office.
09:37Right away.
09:46Pete, honey.
09:48Remember our pillow talk?
09:50Trading director, one-upping Jessica.
09:55It's time you pay up, lover boy.
09:57Babe, it already took a lot of effort
09:59to get you in with those fake credentials.
10:02I know, but couldn't you be a doll
10:05and work your magic for me?
10:08We've got a new CEO.
10:10Let's lay low for a while.
10:14Keep your nose clean, will ya?
10:19Of course.
10:20All right.
10:21Okay.
10:27Pathetic.
10:28Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
10:33Come in.
10:35Jesse.
10:37Emergency.
10:38New boss just asked Jessica.
10:39What?
10:40Wait, he fired Jessica?
10:42God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
10:44He wants you to go see him now.
10:46Am I up next on the chopping block?
10:48Okay.
10:50Okay.
11:01You needed something, Jackson?
11:03Jesse, you all right?
11:04Damn, looking good.
11:05Thanks.
11:06Word is, our quant trading model
11:08is crushing market averages.
11:11I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
11:13Wait, that's Jessica's work.
11:15How does he not know this?
11:18Absolutely.
11:20Jackson, I actually pulled multiple all-nighters
11:24designing that solo.
11:26You see, I have pure talent,
11:30unlike some people who climb the corporate ladder
11:33using connections.
11:38You're referring to Jessica, right?
11:40I already fired that corporate parasite.
11:43I need your model,
11:45because our fund is launching
11:46and I need it to deliver and maximize company profits.
11:49Don't worry, Jackson.
11:50With Jessica out of the way,
11:51I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
11:53That's what I like to hear.
11:54All right, get going.
11:55Clock's ticking.
11:56I'm on it.
11:59That Jesse's everything Frank promised, sir.
12:01Smart and easy on the eyes.
12:03Hardly remarkable.
12:05Let's hire Miss J.
12:06I won't need her anymore.
12:07Miss J?
12:08Miss J is a trading prodigy I met online.
12:10She's the unrivaled queen of the securities trading market.
12:13So that's why Jesse doesn't measure up.
12:15You've already got someone else in mind.
12:17Always two steps ahead, Susan.
12:21Susan, do you see an issue here?
12:22Coffee, always, right here.
12:24Unbelievable.
12:28Miss J,
12:29you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
12:31Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
12:43You
12:58Boss, we have an emergency.
12:59Your wife's in serious trouble.
13:01Are you crazy?
13:02I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
13:04Don't go around calling her that.
13:06You told me to call her that.
13:08Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
13:10Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
13:12Wait, hold on.
13:13You found Jessica?
13:14We got her.
13:15She's running trading at TV Securities.
13:17Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
13:19Fired her?
13:20She's brilliant.
13:21How could she get fired?
13:23Something's off here.
13:24Let's go get her.
13:25This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in,
13:28be the hero, confess your feelings.
13:30You idiot.
13:33You idiot.
13:35This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
13:39Seeing each other every day,
13:41I'll finally get my shot with her.
13:43Boss, snap out of it.
13:44She's in security trading.
13:46Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
13:49So we'll buy one.
14:03This office is all mine now.
14:11Ugh.
14:13Broke much?
14:15Disgusting.
14:23Jessica's Jackson's drinker, Mrs. J?
14:28Jackson fired Jessica.
14:31And no one knows who she really is.
14:34I can take advantage of this.
14:41Jesse, what do you think you're doing?
14:52Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for 1.3 billion.
14:55Just need your signature to close it.
14:59Boss.
15:00Boss.
15:01What?
15:02Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
15:05What crush?
15:06You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
15:08We've been hunting for her for 8 years with no luck.
15:10What if she's married already?
15:12Well, yeah.
15:13She's incredible.
15:14Of course others would see that too.
15:17Not happening.
15:23Where are you going?
15:24To the racetrack.
15:25Boss.
15:28To the racetrack.
15:38You win.
15:39Yes.
15:45Boss.
15:46The trading system is down.
15:51What?
15:52The trading system is down.
15:55We need you.
16:02The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
16:04The more the market rises, the more the market falls.
16:07The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
16:08The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
16:11All my soft boxes are firing like crazy.
16:14We're down in a certain moment already.
16:16The computer thinks this is normal.
16:18I can't do anything no matter what I try.
16:20If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
16:23Don't panic.
16:24The boss is here.
16:33Stop staring and get out of the chair.

18:02Thank you, boss.
18:03You truly are the MVP.
18:05All right.
18:06Let's go, folks.
18:07Come on, let her work.
18:08Let's go.
18:29Nailed it.
18:35Nailed it.
18:55The model's fixed?
18:56The company account.
18:57Boss is insane.
18:59Fixed the glitch.
19:00Saved our butts.
19:01And made a killing in one night.

22:55Susan!
23:02Boss,
23:04she's high up in trading.
23:06Firing her out of nowhere might be
23:08problematic.
23:10Susan, Susan, Susan.
23:12Look around.
23:14Finance is a men's game.
23:16Okay, as far as I'm concerned,
23:17we're just sitting there woman in a chair

23:49She's a talent the board paid top dollar for.
23:51A quant model.
23:53She built it from scratch.
23:55And keeping her is non-negotiable.
23:57Our marketing dominance depends on it.

25:16Jesse.
25:18Emergency.
25:19New boss just asked Jessica.
25:21What?
25:22Wait, he fired Jessica?
25:24God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
25:26He wants you to go see him now.
25:28Am I up next on the chopping block?
25:32I don't know.
25:34I don't know.
25:35Let's talk.
25:38Okay.
25:41God.
25:49You needed something, Jackson?
25:51Jesse, you all right?
25:53Damn, looking good.
25:54Thanks.
25:55Word is,
25:56our quant trading model
25:57is crushing market averages.
25:59I don't say this often,
26:00but I am impressed.
26:02Wait, that's Jessica's work.
26:03How does he not know this?
26:05Absolutely.
26:07Jackson,
26:09I actually pulled multiple all-nighters
26:11designing that solo.
26:13You see,
26:15I have pure talent,
26:17unlike some people
26:19who climb the corporate ladder
26:21using connections.
26:25You're referring to Jessica, right?
26:28I already fired that corporate parasite.
26:30I need your model,
26:31because our fund is launching
26:33and I need it to deliver
26:34and maximize company profits.
26:36Don't worry, Jackson.
26:37With Jessica out of the way,
26:38I'll get that updated model
26:39to you in no time.
26:40That's what I like to hear.
26:41All right, get going.
26:42Clock's ticking.
26:43I'm on it.
26:46That Jesse's everything
26:47Frank promised, sir.
26:49Smart and easy on the eyes.
26:51Hardly remarkable.
26:52Let's hire Miss J.
26:53I won't need her anymore.
26:55Miss J?
26:56Miss J is a trading prodigy
26:57I met online.
26:58She's the unrivaled queen
26:59of the securities trading market.
27:01So that's why Jesse
27:02doesn't measure up.
27:03You've already got
27:04someone else in mind.
27:05Always two steps ahead, Susan.
27:09Susan, do you see an issue here?
27:10Coffee, always.
27:11Right here.
27:13Unbelievable.
27:17Miss J,
27:18you're the only woman
27:19who deserves to be my equal.
27:20Join TV
27:21and I'll hand you
27:22the entire company.
27:31Boss, we have an emergency.
27:32Your wife's
27:33in serious trouble.
27:34Are you crazy?
27:35I haven't even confessed
27:36to Jessica yet.
27:37Don't go around
27:38calling her that.
27:39You told me to call her that.
27:40Eight years
27:41of this secret crush,
27:42still no action.
27:43Look, nothing bad
27:44can happen to her
27:45when I'm...
27:46Wait, hold on.
27:47You found Jessica?
27:48Yes, I did.
27:49I found her.
27:50You found her?
27:51Yes, I did.
27:52You found her?
27:53Yes, I did.
27:54You found her?
27:55Yes, I did.
27:56You found her?
27:57Yes, I did.
27:58You found her?
27:59Yes, I did.
28:00Hold on.
28:01You found Jessica?
28:02We got her.
28:03She's running trading
28:04at TV Securities.
28:05Well, she was
28:06until the new CEO
28:07stepped in and fired her.
28:08Fired her?
28:09She's brilliant.
28:10How could she get fired?
28:11Something's off here.
28:12Let's go get her.
28:13This is the perfect
28:14opportunity for you
28:15to step in,
28:16be the hero,
28:17confess your feelings.
28:18You idiot.
28:19You idiot.
28:20This is the perfect
28:21opportunity to bring her
28:22on my team.
28:23Seeing each other
28:24every day,
28:25I'll finally get
28:26my shot with her.
28:27You idiot.
28:28You idiot.
28:29I'll finally get
28:30my shot with her.
28:31Boss, snap out of it.
28:32She's in Security Trading.
28:33Clooney Financial
28:34doesn't even have
28:35a brokerage division.
28:36So we'll buy one.
28:51This office is all mine now.
28:59Ugh. Broke much? Disgusting.
29:11Jessica Jackson's dream girl, Mrs. J?
29:16Jackson fired Jessica. And no one knows who she really is.
29:21I can take advantage of this.
29:29Jesse, what do you think you're doing?
29:39Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for 1.3 billion. Just need your signature to close it.
29:46Boss. Boss!
29:48What?
29:49Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
29:52What crush? You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
29:56We've been hunting for her for 8 years with no luck. What if she's married already?
30:00Well yeah. She's incredible. Of course others would see that too.
30:05Not happening.
30:10Where are you going?
30:11To the racetrack.
30:13Boss!
30:15To the racetrack.
30:27You win.
30:28Yes!
30:34Boss! The trading system is down.
30:40What?
30:41The trading system is down. We need you.
30:51The system is still placing counter trend orders.
30:53The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
30:56All my stop losses are firing like crazy. We're down 100 million already.
31:01The computer thinks this is normal. I can't do anything no matter what I try.
31:04If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
31:08Don't panic. The boss is here.
31:18Stop staring and get out of the chair.
31:19Go.
31:20Stop staring and get out of the chair.
31:21Go.
31:43Yesterday's rate cut didn't make it into our baseline indicators.
31:46So the model thinks up is down and down is up.
31:50So naturally it's doing exactly the opposite of what it should.
32:02Boss? Even you can't solve it?
32:05Sorry. Food coma is hitting hard.
32:08Mind grabbing me a Coke?
32:12Who does she think she's fooling?
32:14What does a woman possibly know about all this?
32:16If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately.
32:18You're going to eat those words faster than Jessica's eating those chips.
32:25Here you go, boss.
32:40Relax, people. I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
32:44Go home. Get some sleep.
32:47And with that, we're gone.
32:50Thank you, boss. You truly are the MVP.
32:53All right. Let's go, folks. Come on. Let her work. Let's go.
33:14Oh.
33:22Nailed it.
33:42The model's fixed?
33:43The company account.
33:44Boss is insane. Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
33:49Time to update that resume, Tom.
33:51Or was all that big talk just hot air?
33:53Mark, who is our boss? Really?
33:56This is usual, Tom. Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
34:00Her algorithm is the reason why TB security is a titan.
34:04What on earth are we doing during work hours?
34:08And you are?
34:09Meet the chairman's son. Your new CEO.
34:13Of course, his talents have the board's complete endorsement.
34:17And last time I checked, these are prime trading hours, aren't they?
34:21Well, it's actually funny you mention that.
34:22You are fired.
34:24What?
34:27Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
34:32Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
34:35Only the best work here.
34:37You made it here on pure talent. You want to talk about mediocrity?
34:40Let's discuss that trust fund that bought your position.
34:45Did you just hit her? What the hell's wrong with you?
34:48I'm not going to waste my time talking to garbage.
34:53Here is your hush money.
34:57Take it and get out.
35:00You know what?
35:02Here's a little extra.
35:03Here's a little extra.
35:04Use it to buy yourself some makeup and cover up that bruise.
35:07No one wants to see that.
35:09Drop it.
35:10Does school handle this when she's back?
35:13The board paid insane money for her brain.
35:15Jackson wouldn't have the guts to touch her.
35:18Listen up, everybody.
35:19The market is a savage wilderness.
35:22It is a dog-eat-dog world.
35:23It is eat or be eaten.
35:25You need to be apex predators,
35:28not little, fluffy, performance-faking rabbits.
35:32Those will be eaten.
35:35But the real alphas, the real rainmakers among you,
35:39will be rewarded accordingly.
35:46Top of the leaderboard is...
35:49Caitlyn.
35:51Where's my superstar?
35:53That would be me.
35:55Caitlyn.
35:57Is this Kayla Twist?
35:59Are you a Kayla Twist fan?
36:01She has a concert tonight.
36:02Would you want to go?
36:03God, yes.
36:04This is perfect.
36:05It's perfect.
36:06Go now before you're late.
36:07And as soon as the concert's over,
36:09clean out your desk because you're fired.
36:11What?
36:12Why?
36:13The Nikkei opens during concert hours.
36:15I figured a trader wouldn't put Kayla Twist above making trades.
36:19Those numbers must be fake.
36:21Who's your boss?
36:22I need to meet the clown that runs this circus.
36:24It's Jessica.
36:26She's here.
36:31You are fired.
36:41You are fired.
36:45Move your damn foot and explain what rock you crawled out from under.
36:49Who I am doesn't matter.
36:50All that matters is that you are fired.
36:52Are you certain about firing me?
36:54You think you're some unicorn employee that this place will crash and burn without your precious brain?
36:58You wouldn't say that, exactly.
36:59Jessica hasn't slept because she was busy saving us nine figures because of a bug.
37:03Yeah, and we even made a profit.
37:05You expect me to believe that?
37:07Her name wasn't even on those reports.
37:08So take your headphones and beat it.
37:13Can't trash ruin my shoes.
37:15And to you defenders, finance takes timing and judgment.
37:20And sticking up for her shows that you have neither.
37:23So pack your crap and follow her out the door.
37:25Leave them alone.
37:26They have nothing to do with this.
37:28I'll go.
37:31What?
37:32Is office drama more important than making money now?
37:42Susan!
37:49Boss, she's high up in trading.
37:52Firing her out of nowhere might be problematic.
37:56Susan, Susan, Susan.
37:59Look around, finance is a men's game.
38:01Okay, as far as I'm concerned, she was just sitting there warming a chair and cashing paychecks.
38:06Alright, I did us a favor.
38:07We should have squashed that bug a while ago.
38:14Dad, how's it going?
38:16I forgot to mention to you, there's this one woman exec you absolutely cannot mess with.
38:24Woman executive?
38:25Don't tell me it's...
38:29How many women executives do we have, Susan?
38:33Just two women in executive roles.
38:36These are the files.
38:38She's a talent the board paid top dollar for.
38:41A quant model.
38:42She built it from scratch.
38:44And keeping her is non-negotiable.
38:47Our marketing dominance depends on it.
38:49Jesse, Harvard PhD, star trader.
38:53Dad, are you talking about Jesse?
38:55Jesse.
38:56I didn't fire Jesse, did I?
38:58Actually, Jessica.
39:00She's our golden goose.
39:01Now you need to...
39:02Dad, you just focus on getting better.
39:04I'll make sure she stays, alright?
39:08Susan, tell Jesse to come to my office.
39:10Right away.
39:12Pete, honey.
39:13Remember our pillow talk?
39:15Trading director.
39:17One-upping Jessica.
39:20It's time you pay up, lover boy.
39:22Babe, it already took a lot of effort to get you in with those fake credentials.
39:27I know, but couldn't you be a doll and work your magic for me?
39:33I'm not a doll.
39:34I'm not a doll.
39:35I'm not a doll.
39:36I'm not a doll.
39:37I'm not a doll.
39:38Couldn't you be a doll and work your magic for me?
39:43We've got a new CEO.
39:45Let's lay low for a while.
39:49Keep your nose clean, will ya?
39:54Of course.
39:55Alright.
40:02Pathetic.
40:03Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
40:09Jesse.
40:11Emergency.
40:12New boss just asked Jessica.
40:13What?
40:14Wait, he fired Jessica?
40:15God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
40:18He wants you to go see him now.
40:19Am I up next on the chopping block?
40:24Okay.
40:35You needed something, Jackson?
40:37Jesse, you alright?
40:38Damn, looking good.
40:40Thanks.
40:41Word is, our quant trading model is crushing market averages.
40:45I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
40:48Wait, that's Jessica's work.

41:22Don't worry, Jackson.
41:24With Jessica out of the way, I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
41:27That's what I like to hear.
41:28Alright, get going.
41:29Clock's ticking.
41:30I'm on it.
41:33That Jesse's everything Frank promised, sir.
41:35Smart and easy on the eyes.
41:37Hardly remarkable.
41:39Let's hire Miss J. I won't need her anymore.

41:59Unbelievable.
42:03Miss J, you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
42:06Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
42:28Boss, we have an emergency.
42:30Your wife's in serious trouble.
42:31Are you crazy?
42:32I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
42:34Don't go around calling her that.
42:36You told me to call her that.
42:38Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
42:40Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
42:42Wait, hold on.

42:57This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in,
42:59be the hero, confess your feelings.
43:01You idiot.
43:05You idiot.
43:06This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
43:10Seeing each other every day,
43:12I'll finally get my shot with her.
43:14Boss, snap out of it.
43:15She's in security trading.
43:17Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
43:20So what about her?
43:21Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
43:24So we'll buy one.
43:38This office is all mine now.
43:48Broke much?
43:49Disgusting.
43:58Jessica Jackson's dream girl, Mrs. J?
44:03Jackson fired Jessica.
44:05And no one knows who she really is.
44:08I can take advantage of this.
44:16Jesse!
44:17What do you think you're doing?
44:20Hey, boss.
44:21We locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for $1.3 billion.
44:24Just need your signature to close it.
44:28Boss.
44:29Boss!
44:30What?
44:31Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush, Jessica, again.
44:34What crush?
44:36You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
44:38We've been hunting for her for eight years with no luck.
44:40What if she's married already?
44:42Well, yeah.
44:43She's incredible.
44:44I mean, look at her.
44:46What if she's married already?
44:47Well, yeah.
44:48She's incredible.
44:49Of course others would see that, too.
44:52Not happening.
44:57Where are you going?
44:59To the racetrack.
45:00Boss!
45:03To the racetrack.
45:16You win.
45:17Yes!
45:22Boss!
45:23The trading system is down.
45:28What?
45:29The trading system is down.
45:32We need you.
45:39The system is still placing counter-trend orders.

45:52If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.

47:04If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately.
47:05You're going to eat those words faster than Jessica's eating those chips.
47:09Chapter 11
47:12Here you go, boss.
47:27Relax, people.
47:28I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
47:31Go home.
47:32Get some sleep.
47:35And with that, we're gone.
47:37Thank you, boss.
47:38You truly are the MVP.
47:40All right.
47:41Let's go, folks.
47:42Come on, let her work.
47:43Let's go.
48:08Nailed it.
48:29The model's fixed?
48:30The company account.
48:31Boss is insane!
48:33Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
48:36Time to update that resume, Tom.

50:42Kaitlyn.
50:45Is this Kayla Twist?
50:47Are you a Kayla Twist fan?
50:48You know, she has a concert tonight.
50:49Would you want to go?
50:50God, yes.
50:51This is perfect.
50:52It's perfect.
50:53Go now before you're late.
50:54And as soon as the concert's over,
50:56clean out your desk because you're fired.
50:58What?
50:59Why?
51:00The Nikkei opens during concert hours.
51:02You know, I figured a trader wouldn't put Kayla Twist above making trades.
51:06Those numbers must be fake.
51:08And who's your boss?
51:09I need to meet the clown that runs this circus.
51:11It's Jessica.
51:13She's here.
51:28You are fired.
51:32Move your damn foot and explain what rock you crawled out from under.
51:36Who I am doesn't matter.
51:37All that matters is that you are fired.
51:39Are you certain about firing me?
51:41You think you're some unicorn employee that this place will crash and burn without your precious brain?
51:45You wouldn't say that, exactly.
51:46Jessica hasn't slept because she was busy saving us nine figures because of a bug.
51:50Yeah, and we even made a profit.
51:52You expect me to believe that?
51:54Her name wasn't even on those reports.
51:55So take your headphones and beat it.
51:59Can't trash ruin my shoes.
52:01And to you defenders, finance takes timing and judgment.
52:06And sticking up for her shows that you have neither.
52:09So pack your crap and follow her out the door.
52:11Leave them alone.
52:12They have nothing to do with this.
52:14I'll go.
52:17What?
52:18Is office drama more important than making money now?
52:29Susan!
52:36Boss, she's high up in trading.
52:39Firing her out of nowhere might be problematic.
52:43Susan, Susan, Susan.
52:46Look around, finance is a men's game.
52:49Okay, as far as I'm concerned, she was just sitting there warming a chair and cashing paychecks.
52:53Alright, I did us a favor.
52:54We should have squashed that bug a while ago.
52:59Dad, how's it going?
53:01I forgot to mention to you, there's this one woman exec you absolutely cannot mess with.
53:09Woman executive?
53:11Don't tell me it's...
53:15How many women executives do we have, Susan?
53:19Just two women in executive roles.
53:22These are the files.
53:23She's a talent the board paid top dollar for.
53:25A quant model.
53:26She built it from scratch.
53:28And keeping her is non-negotiable.
53:30Our marketing dominance depends on it.
53:33Jesse, Harvard PhD, star trader.
53:38Dad, are you talking about Jesse?
53:40Yes, Jesse.
53:41I didn't fire Jesse, did I?
53:43Actually, Jessica.
53:44She's our golden goose.
53:46Now you need to...
53:47Dad, you just focus on getting better.
53:49I'll make sure she stays.
53:51Susan, tell Jesse to come to my office.
53:53Right away.
54:02Pete, honey.
54:03Remember our pillow talk?
54:05Trading director.
54:07One-upping Jessica.
54:10It's time you pay up, lover boy.
54:12Babe, are you done?
54:14No, I'm not done.
54:16It's time you pay up, lover boy.
54:18Babe, it already took a lot of effort
54:20to get you in with those fake credentials.
54:23I know, but couldn't you be a doll
54:26and work your magic for me?
54:30We've got a new CEO.
54:32Let's lay low for a while.
54:36Keep your nose clean, will ya?
54:41Of course.
54:47Pathetic.
54:49Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
54:54Come in.
54:56Jesse.
54:58Emergency.
54:59New boss just asked Jessica.
55:00What?
55:01Wait, he fired Jessica?
55:03God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
55:05He wants you to go see him now.
55:07Am I up next on the chopping block?
55:11Okay.
55:12Okay.
55:15God.
55:22You needed something, Jackson?
55:24Jesse, you all right?
55:25Damn, looking good.
55:27Thanks.
55:28Word is, our quant trading model
55:30is crushing market averages.
55:33I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
55:35Wait, that's Jessica's work.
55:37How does he not know this?
55:39Absolutely.
55:41Jackson, I actually pull multiple all-nighters
55:45designing that solo.
55:47You see, I have pure talent,
55:51unlike some people who climb the corporate ladder
55:54using connections.
55:59You're referring to Jessica, right?
56:01I already fired that corporate parasite.
56:04I need your model,
56:06because our fund is launching
56:07and I need it to deliver and maximize company profits.
56:09Don't worry, Jackson.
56:11With Jessica out of the way,
56:12I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
56:14That's what I like to hear.
56:15All right, get going, clock's ticking.
56:16I'm on it.
56:19That Jesse's everything Frank promised, sir.
56:22Smart and easy on the eyes.
56:24Hardly remarkable.
56:25Let's hire Miss J.
56:26I won't need her anymore.
56:28Miss J?
56:29Miss J is a trading prodigy I met online.
56:31She's the unrivaled queen of the securities trading market.
56:34So that's why Jesse doesn't measure up.
56:36You've already got someone else in mind.
56:38Always two steps ahead, Susan.
56:42Susan, do you see an issue here?
56:43Coffee, always, right here.
56:45Unbelievable.
56:49Miss J, you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
56:52Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
57:09Boss, we have an emergency.
57:10Your wife's in serious trouble.
57:12Are you crazy?
57:13I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
57:15Don't go around calling her that.
57:17You told me to call her that.
57:19Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
57:21Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
57:23Wait, hold on.
57:24You found Jessica?
57:25We got her.
57:26She's running trading at TV Securities.
57:28What?
57:29I don't know what you're talking about,
57:30but I'm telling you, she's in serious trouble.
57:32What?
57:33I don't know what you're talking about,
57:35but I'm telling you, she's in serious trouble.
57:37She's running at TV Securities.
57:38Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
57:41Fired her?
57:42She's brilliant.
57:43How could she get fired?
57:44Something's off here.
57:46Let's go get her.
57:47This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in,
57:49be the hero, confess your feelings.
57:51You idiot.
57:55You idiot.
57:56This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
58:00Seeing each other every day,
58:02I'll finally get my shot with her.
58:04Boss, snap out of it.
58:06It's a security treaty.
58:08Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
58:11So we'll buy one.
58:25This office is all mine now.
58:29Ugh.
58:34Ugh.
58:35Broke much?
58:37Disgusting.
58:45Jessica's Jackson's drinker?
58:47Mrs. J?
58:50Jackson fired Jessica.
58:52And no one knows who she really is.
58:55I can take advantage of this.
59:03Jessie, what do you think you're doing?
