09:55so you'd be surprised how hard it is to find underprivileged youth around here
09:58and as it turns out
10:00your father's illness qualified as a hardship
10:02so i guess he is paying for it
10:06not

16:13You good?
16:15Yeah, yeah, fine.
16:16Fine.
16:20You must be the gentleman from the VA.
16:22Yeah, that's right.
16:22Just here.
16:25We used to run the world, Jeffrey.
16:28Now we rent server space from the bastards who broke it.
16:32Good grief.
16:33Oh, shit.
16:34Ruffage?
16:36Generalissimo.
16:38General Don Voorhees, Jeffrey Hart.
16:40Hi.
16:42What are you doing here?
16:44Oh, it's time to solve the backlog at the VA.
16:46Well, prepare to die with your boots on, boys.
16:49Well, about to meet with Tim.
16:51Just met with Tim.
16:52D.O.D. arranged a conference in partnership with Cupertino.
16:56Technology of defense.
16:58Because millionaire jagoffs love these things.
17:00Yeah, nice.
17:02Nice.
17:02Hey, you know, tell me to get lost.
17:04But, uh, what if I spoke about our initiative at your conference?
17:09And make them feel like heroes for helping the actual heroes?
17:13Maybe, Major Marshall?
17:15Maybe.
17:16We'll let you know.
17:18Okay.
17:23Maybe.
17:25Guy fired me ten years ago.
17:28Trick.
17:34Goddammit.
17:35Hi.
17:36Hi.
17:37I'm Anoushka Bhattachera, Director of Ethical Innovation.
17:40Tim Kwan, Corp Dev.
17:41Jeffrey Hart, Assistant to the Deputy Undersecretary.
17:44Tom Ruffage, Deputy Undersecretary, Veterans Affairs.
17:48All right.
17:50Oh, just here?
17:50Yeah.
17:51Oh, yeah.
17:52Sure.
17:52Okay.
17:53But, uh, will the other Tim be joining?
17:58Big Tim only shows up when the contours are delimited.
18:03Uh-huh.
18:03So, uh, you guys got a traffic jam needs clearing.
18:07Yeah, we do indeed.
18:09Tim, Big Tim, he likes things super direct.
18:13Mm-hmm.
18:14Uncluttered, right?
18:15So, straightforwardly, what's the quant ban for us?
18:22I'm still pretending to know what delimited contours means.
18:26Quant ban is quantifiable benefits.
18:30Got it.
18:31Yeah.
18:32Mm-hmm.
18:33Well, I mean, uh, I don't know.
18:36Uh, you're here.
18:38You live here.
18:40And you and me and Jeffrey and Anoushka and Big Tim, we're all here.
18:45There are men and women who fought for us to be here and live like this.
18:53You know, free to make a business, to speak our minds, to make ungodly sums of money.
19:00But, for the men and the women who actually put themselves on the front lines to defend the socioeconomic system
19:10in which you and your company thrive.
19:12I mean, they're not even asking you for a favor.
19:15In fact, they want to pay you a quarter of a billion dollars.
19:21It's for your help.
19:25So, us helping you do the work is kind of like, I don't know, France helping your mother set up
19:34her printer.
19:35You know?
19:36France, but with, like, much, much, much more money than France.
19:41Yeah.
19:42Oh, you guys get it.
19:43Oh, yeah. Okay.
19:44We, of course, recognize the sacrifice of your, your people.
19:52They're struggling.
19:53And we, we feel that.
19:59Oh.
20:00You feel it, huh?
20:02We feel it, guys. We feel it.
20:04You must be really feeling it.
20:06Yeah.
20:07Well, thank you, Anoushka.
20:09This has been, um, what's the opposite of uplift thing?
20:13Uh, demoralizing.
20:15Yeah, demo.
20:16I bet.
20:17In these parts.
20:18Come on, Jeffrey.
20:19We got other meetings.
20:28Our 11 o'clock has to postpone until next week.
20:33Uh, it's Major Marsha.
20:35Bory says, you're welcome.
20:37Thanks.
20:40You're speaking at the conference.
20:41No.
20:42DOD will cover a junior suite at the Elysium if we're all right with sharing.
20:46You just need to reserve it on your card and they will reimburse you.
20:50You okay with sharing a suite?
20:51I'll, I'll take the couch.
20:52No.
20:53I've been a full-time pain in the ass.
20:54You deserve it.
20:56Damn!
20:57The Elysium is a shit!
20:59I thought that guy'd never forgive me.
21:01Why?
21:02What'd you do to get fired?
21:04Doesn't matter now.
21:05Ho-ya!
21:17Hello?
21:19Hello?
21:19Honey, we can hear you.
21:21No bassoon during office hours.
21:25Very sorry about that, Carl.
21:28It's fine.
21:29No, no.
21:30No, it's not.
21:30This is, this is your time.
21:32Well, might as well fill the emptiness with bagpipes or whatever the hell that was.
21:38Lord knows, I was just gonna complain anyway and who wants to hear me complain?
21:42Boo hoo, poor old Rich fart.
21:44We all deserve to complain.
21:46Not the Richies.
21:49People act like we took something.
21:51As if we didn't build everything they touch.
21:54Mm-hmm.
21:55And we didn't build it to be worshipped, we built it to work and it does work.
21:59But where's our parade?
22:02All I see are pitchforks and ingratitude.
22:05And I gotta be honest with you, it's starting to make me maybe a little mental.
22:10Would you like to starfish, Carl?
22:14Okay.
22:15Yeah.
22:20Great.
22:22I'm backsliding, Joanne.
22:26This shithill came up to me at Milltown, my haunt.
22:30The one place that I could go to in public when Millwood bothers me.
22:34Mm-hmm.
22:34And right before I get ready to bite into my T-bone, this stivilling shit stick sits at my table.
22:45And he's like, oh, Mr. Mardoff, you're such an inspiration.
22:49Of course, he brings up Mardoff's Law.
22:51He was admiring you.
22:53Doesn't it make you feel even a little bit good to see your legacy in action?
22:57Mardoff's Law is something I wrote on a napkin on speed when we still have fax machines.
23:01Profits will continue to grow forever, right?
23:04Infinite growth.
23:05Yes, the logic of the cancer cell.
23:07If I could have just reached out and throttled and just squeezed and squeezed that little shit licker's trachea until
23:16it buckled and his eyes popped, that would have been a legacy.
23:21Well, I didn't.
23:23I didn't.
23:25Okay, Zeus.
23:28Go get it.
23:30Zeus.
23:32Come on, buddy.
23:33Gotta get it.
23:41Sorry.
23:43I'm sorry.
23:48Hey, boy.
23:50Trying to teach you some new tricks, huh?
23:52A little late for that, don't you think?
23:55Tricks are for kids.
24:01One day, you're chasing squirrels.
24:04And then the next, you're shitting yourself on the good Persian rug.
24:08Ain't right.
24:15Sorry.
24:31It's crazy.
24:32There's not to be a light.
24:37No one, I'm sorry.
24:39I'm sorry.
24:39Yeah.
24:45No one, you're gonna be a head.
24:48No one's going to die for today.
24:49I'm sorry.
24:50I'm sorry.
24:50You could be a head.
25:00Stop, stop.
25:06Thank you for this joint.
25:13You're dead!
25:15Hey!
25:16Hey!
25:17You had a game.
25:18How was the game?
25:19Oh, is it a match?
25:20We lost.
25:21That's how we learned.
25:22Yeah, okay.
25:24Okay, Dad.
25:26Love you.
25:29Oh, look who's alive.
25:30Yes, I am alive.
25:33Anton came over for a session last night.
25:36Right.
25:36And it was expensive.
25:40You really ought to try it.
25:42The puke juice?
25:43No, thank you.
25:44I had a snag at work.
25:48Well, a little bit more than a snag, but Lily, my dad came to me in a vision and showed
25:54me a path forward.
25:56Right.
25:57Guess arrival one, Duncan.
25:59Yes?
26:00The reception?
26:02For Beatrice, the new headmaster at your daughter's school.
26:05Nice.
26:06I think maybe a shower's in order.
26:09Oh, and with regards to our arrangement, and in keeping with what we discussed, I did meet someone in Napa
26:20at the Mutt Baths, a Danish CFO.
26:25Of course, we use protection.
26:28One guy.
26:30You'd like him.
26:31Oh.
26:32Oh.
26:33I know Anushka was here last night.
26:36So, that's back on.
26:38You were supposed to tell me.
26:40No, no, no.
26:41She...
26:43That's all I've asked.
26:44She was here as a friend.
26:46Right.
26:47Danish CEO.
26:48CFO.
26:50Okay.
26:51Brush your teeth.
26:52Okay.
26:52Your breath stinks.
26:53Yeah.
27:00Oh, Rodrigo.
27:01You're fired.
27:02Huh?
27:02Good one.
27:03No, you're fired.
27:03You told Lily Anushka was here last night.
27:05What?
27:05No, I didn't.
27:06Yes, you did.
27:08Lucky?
27:08Yeah?
27:09So, that dragon tattoo chick, I need that algo she did on that guy that was doing that thing that
27:13one time.
27:15No, no.
27:16It's not illegal.
27:17Just frowned upon.
27:18Okay.
27:19Hold on.
27:19Yep.
27:20Lucky, are you still there?
27:21Yeah, I'm here.
27:22Okay.
27:22Listen to me.
27:23It was Napa Valley, 29th, and the mud baths.
27:26Got it.
27:27Danish CFO.
27:28Like, you know, 30, 30, 30, 30.
27:30Get me that, uh, code monkey with the pink hair.
27:32The none of the above with the door knocker in her nose.
27:35Sorry, their nose.
27:36Just get her.
27:36I'll be dunking.
27:41Hey, uh, get up.
27:43Hey, uh, get up.
27:44What is this?
27:44Get up from behind my desk, would you?
27:46Did anyone see you sitting there?
27:47I don't think so.
27:48How's the problem?
27:49Uh, the, uh, gentleman from the Napa mud baths is now in Copenhagen.
27:53Okay.
27:54Okay.
27:54Get him.
27:55What's the problem?
27:55In Europe, this is against...
27:57This is America.
27:57We have our own rules here.
27:59I mean, we play football with the football.
28:01Okay.
28:02Um, this algo is an AI-powered threat shield intended to protect people and their privacy.
28:06I know.
28:07I've seen it.
28:07And I find its scope annoyingly narrow.
28:09It synthesizes socials, biometrics, financials.
28:13Your current algo is just a data aggregator that can account for orphaned info sets.
28:18Which is fine for your corporate clients, but not performant under data-rich scenarios.
28:24So, this is, I mean, it can capture someone's entire digital footprint in a heartbeat.
28:31Now you're making my heartbeat.
28:33Its scope is basically God's eye.
28:35Good.
28:36Super scope, maybe.
28:37But in the wrong hands, they can...
28:39It could...
28:39Whose hands are you talking about?
28:41My hands?
28:43Hmm?
28:44Listen, you make a wrench, right?
28:46And I buy that wrench, right?
28:49If I fix a leak or break someone's kneecap with it, it's not up to the wrench, girl.
28:54But my algo isn't intended...
28:55No, my algo.
28:56Mine.
28:56You work here.
28:57You developed it here.
28:59It is mine.
29:00Or do you want me to slap you with the lawsuit?
29:03If you did that, I would quit, obviously.
29:05And then one of your other employees would need to be capable of supervising which they're not.
29:15Lucky, can you give us the room?
29:19I told you to fix the door.
29:21Sorry.
29:22Um, Mr. Park, there are rules.
29:25Rules are designed to keep morons in line.
29:27Are you a moron?
29:28No, you aren't.
29:29And think about it, okay?
29:30What if this algo ends up protecting evildoers when it should be exposing them?
29:36Hmm?
29:37Who's gonna make that call?
29:39You?
29:40Every time?
29:42Yeah.
29:43How about we develop this?
29:45Right?
29:45I'll give you the resources you need.
29:48Don't you want to see the rocket you built punch a hole in the sky?
29:51Isn't that why you came to the valley?
29:53Yeah.
29:56Okay, so how godlike is this?
29:58Omniscience?
29:58It's any deity omniscience?
30:00Omniscience.
30:01What's that?
30:02We're about to find out.
30:11Here, spoof it from this number.
30:19Lily, I was just thinking about your youngs.
30:23Hello?
30:24Hi?
30:26Hey, mother.
30:27Hey, girl.
30:30What's this?
30:31Press releases, personal calendars, text chains, posts, search engine requests, shopping...
30:35That's a big boat.
30:37Sorry, I mean, he's handsome.
30:40Yeah.
30:40No?
30:42How much does he make?
30:45Fuck.
30:47Okay.
30:49He got tonsillectomy when he was a kid.
30:51I did, too.
30:52He likes sweet beer, herring, anal.
30:57Do you want more of this sex stuff?
30:58Because I can tweak it.
30:59No, no, no.
31:00It's...
31:01It's...
31:02Okay.
31:10This is, um...
31:13This is a thing.
31:19Good work.
31:26I don't know your name.
31:27What is it?
31:28Harper.
31:28Harper.
31:29Hi.
31:29Um, I can count on your complete discretion with this.
31:33Right?
31:35What do you want?
31:36Um...
31:36I want to get you something.
31:37All right.
31:38What do you need?
31:39What do you need?
31:39Anything?
31:40An office of my own.
32:01Jameson, hey, kiddo.
32:03What are you up to these days?
32:05Soccer tournament?
32:06Stalker tournament.
32:07That sounds...
32:08Soccer.
32:09Soccer.
32:10I prefer skiing and squash, but they have wealth connotations.
32:13Uh-huh.
32:13Soccer's more relatable.
32:14Hey, Tessie's here somewhere.
32:16You two should get together.
32:19When's the last time you guys had a sleepover?
32:21Not since, like, seventh grade.
32:25Okay, can you just hold...
32:27that face?
32:28I'm building an intelligent entity, more of an autonomous companion for alienated teens,
32:33based on personal data ecosystems, but it has been a real slog to replicate a genuine
32:38look of bothersomeness.
32:40Thanks, Jamie.
32:43Okay, just a second.
32:44Sweetie.
32:45Sweetie.
32:47Next bite of the lemon square tastes exactly like the first.
32:51Yeah.
32:53I don't know how many of those she's eaten.
32:55You try.
32:56You try.
32:57I mean, it's hard.
32:58It's really hard being a mom.
33:19Honey, swim first, then eat, just so you don't have any digestion issues in the park
33:24offsetter's pool.
33:26Can we talk, please?
33:28Our next session, in the office.
33:30But I'd rather do it now.
33:33Duncan, circumstances don't always line with our wishes.
33:54Your parents gave you a smartphone?
33:56Uh, yeah.
33:58Yours don't...
33:59It's much worse than hard drugs.
34:01Twice as addictive.
34:02Doesn't every parent here, like, work on tech stuff?
34:07Arms stealers don't give their kids landmines!
34:16Oh, my God.
34:43Does your mom still take your body mass index every night?
34:46What was your thing?
34:47Like, anything over petite,
34:49you're 8% less likely to get into a top 10.
34:52Amazing.
34:54You're a klepto now.
34:56That was batter pyromania.
34:59And you have to repeat the 11th grade?
35:02Plus community service.
35:04I have to see Dr. Gary.
35:06Court ordered.
35:07Triple crown.
35:09Poor Tessie.
35:11Stealing the flag off the flagpole.
35:13Turning the exit signs into no exit signs.
35:16So deep.
35:17Or just another cry for help.
35:20You found me out, Jamie.
35:22Just remember, if it comes down to it,
35:25it's across the street for attention.
35:27Up the road if you want results.
35:47You're not ashamed to be seen with me?
35:50What are you talking about?
35:53Everybody from Cupertino?
35:54Tim?
35:56Little Tim.
35:57The guy's staring at me like he's trying to castrate me telepathically.
36:01It's working, too.
36:03He's just gloating.
36:04What?
36:05Why?
36:06He convinced Brick Tim to shut down the acquisition talks.
36:10Mind you,
36:11after you leaked the rumor.
36:13What did he say?
36:15It wasn't there.
36:17I heard he called you a dumb man's genius.
36:20At least I'm someone's genius.
36:22Not everybody's asshole.
36:24He comes to my house.
36:25He comes to my house.
36:26Cloak?
36:27That is...
36:29How much for my stock do you own, huh?
36:31Little Tim Blabs?
36:32About the acquisitions,
36:33Nafu?
36:33To any of these people here?
36:34Anyone?
36:35He won't.
36:36Okay.
36:36He won't.
36:36Yeah, well, he better not.
36:38I'm just saying,
36:38you stand to lose, too.
36:39I know.
36:40That's why I had to firewall myself off from all of it.
36:42Oh, and yet you still heard him call me a dumbass.
36:44That just happened to get through your firewall.
36:47The zinger.
36:48I mean, he is...
36:49He is cutting me off.
36:50I have the balls here.
36:52I need you to shut that shit down.
36:54Is it the stock you're worried about,
36:55or your dick?
36:56It's one and the same.
37:21So, this whole experience is, you know,
37:23quite out of the box for me.
37:25Yeah?
37:26It seems everyone is so lovely here.
37:28Happy to get to work and bring my daughter
37:30and give her the best opportunity.
37:33Oh, uh...
37:33By the way, Lily knows you came to my session last night?
37:36Yeah, I know.
37:37I texted her.
37:39Why would you do that?
37:42Misunderstandings.
37:43Unpredictable, costly, and easily avoidable
37:44with a bit of truth.
37:45Well, it got lost in translation.
37:46She went and banged a guy in Napa.
37:51That is not...
37:52I'm sorry.
37:52No, I know.
37:53I know.
37:53No, I know.
37:54I'm sorry.
37:54I just wanted to give Lily a lot of respect and agency.
37:58Well, mission's super-duper accomplished.
38:00Don't.
38:01No.
38:02Okay.
38:02No.
38:02You sound like a truffle pig.
38:05Don't do that.
38:17I want to officially introduce the reason we're all here.
38:20An educator who took a top 50 in Pasadena to the top five.
38:26Before that, masters from Columbia.
38:29Harvard before that.
38:31And a terrifically underprivileged upbringing in Chicago.
38:34I knew the minute I heard her speak at the Aspen Education Summit
38:38that she was the one to lead us into the future.
38:42Raising money off frothy numbers to sugarcoat the rotten apple
38:45is what built this town.
38:47It's not fraud.
38:48Not now.
38:48Not now.
38:49I will do harm to myself and or others.
38:52Jesus.
38:53Wonderful.
38:56Uh, goodness.
38:59I, um, should have prepared something.
39:03I know you're all ready for a new chapter at La Celtas.
39:10Oh.
39:11Orson.
39:12Hey.
39:13I, uh, I...
39:15What?
39:15Hey.
39:16Hey.
39:16Sorry.
39:21I can't wait to think her.
39:24Let's make this a great year.
39:38Hi, um, this is...
39:40This is Beery, but I was in there and I saw you take that thing.
39:44Don't know what you're talking about, bro.
39:46Oh, well, that guy in there, he just, he saw me come out of the library
39:50and he might think that I took it.
39:51Like, if so facto or whatever.
39:55Um.
40:12Okay, so listen.
40:13I'm in crisis right now.
40:15This is, you're looking at it.
40:18And my therapist, who's supposed to know me better than anyone, thinks I'm a fraud.
40:22Okay, Duncan, I, I, I didn't call you a fraud, okay?
40:26Well...
40:27I said, what I said was that you, you might be committing fraud.
40:30What is the difference?
40:31You're not a murderer.
40:32You're just someone who committed murder.
40:33And here, when you use the word fraud in the Valley, that's kind of like saying,
40:39good hustle.
40:39Okay, I, I, I spoke to a lawyer friend.
40:44What, what, what?
40:45I didn't mention your name or anything.
40:47Why would you, why would you talk to a lawyer or what?
40:49Oh, you haven't done anything about this yet acted on any of it.
40:55I've done the analytics.
40:56You know, I, I, I, I bag a high profile investor and then everybody forgets about Cupertino and
41:02we grow, we grow, I'm sexy again.
41:04Come and get it.
41:05But you'd have to lie to, to do it.
41:08It's, it's, it's market manipulation and it is a felony.
41:11A felony, a felony.
41:13No, look, okay, here, you, you came here today, right?
41:18And I'm just going to assume to benefit your business, right?
41:21So you snarf up a bunch of potential hotshot clients and they're fucked up kids and that's...
41:25No, I, my child is attending Los Altos.
41:32You don't have a child.
41:34You just met him.
41:36The pooter?
41:38Okay.
41:39No, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
41:40I think that we should be getting back to your guest.
41:41I just had an aha.
41:42I did.
41:43It's a really good one.
41:44Okay.
41:45Okay.
41:46Okay.
41:46Out of all your illustrious clients, right?
41:50Maybe there is one or two in my arena or adjacent and that maybe their business needs
41:56aligned with mine and maybe their personalities match as well.
42:00And you could set us up for, I don't know, a lunch or...
42:03Okay, I am not a dating service for businessmen, Duncan.
42:07I am a therapist and you need to respect that.
42:10Okay.
42:11Life coaches do it all the time.
42:12I am not a...
42:13I am not a life coach.
42:15No, no.
42:16I...
42:16Listen, I want to continue doing the work.
42:18I do.
42:18With you.
42:19With you.
42:20Then I think that you need to face the discomfort of your truths.
42:26Because you pumped your stock.
42:29Right?
42:31Yeah.
42:31And now you want to do more of it?
42:33I mean, if the SEC find out, you could go to jail.
42:37Jail?
42:38Don't...
42:39Yeah.
42:40Well, you wouldn't be the first CEO to end up there.
42:43You made me feel worse.
42:44You do.
42:45And that is not your job.
42:46I'm pretty sure that is the opposite of your job.
42:49Okay, this is right here.
42:51This is why we have sessions in an office.
42:54Boundaries.
42:55Okay, look, I...
42:56I apologize, Duncan.
42:58And I am ending this conversation right now.
43:01No!
43:01Hey, wait, listen.
43:02Lily's having an affair.
43:07I'm just...
43:08A bit agitated more than usual.
43:11And you keep bringing up the SEC and the lawyer and...
43:14Well, I am...
43:15I depend on you.
43:16And I respect you.
43:18There is...
43:22There's no one else.
43:33Oh, man, that's a good shower.
43:36Yeah.
43:39Finally!
43:40An ounce of respect for the VA, huh?
43:43All right.
43:45Some legit above-board decadence.
43:48Yeah, I just wish the meetings went better.
43:51Oh, no pouting, Jeffrey.
43:52Come on, no feelings in a firefight.
43:55Smell this.
43:57Bergamot.
43:58Smells good.
43:59Yeah.
43:59Earl Grey, right?
44:01Oh.
44:02Come on, look around.
44:03We're doing okay.
44:05I'm gonna do my pitch tonight.
44:07All the wigs will be there.
44:08The big ones, the little ones.
44:10Hell, yeah.
44:10I will make my case.
44:12I'll be passionate.
44:14I'm great when I'm passionate.
44:18Do you want to help me get passionate?
44:24Uh, Tom.
44:28Yeah, what about the behavioral health forum in Fairlawn, huh?
44:31Backseat of that car?
44:33Yeah.
44:34I got you drunk.
44:35Cross the line.
44:37Sorry.
44:39But, you know, if I'm being honest, not sorry.
44:44I wasn't that drunk.
44:46Oh.
44:51But, uh...
44:53Yeah, yeah.
44:56I was younger once, you know?
44:57Oh, no.
44:58Handsomer.
44:59No, no, no.
45:00All the officers' wives wanted me.
45:02Yeah, you wanted the officers.
45:05Yeah.
45:07You're still handsome.
45:08Mm.
45:09And my boss.
45:11Yeah.
45:12Right.
45:12Yeah.
45:17You're gonna be great.
45:19You know?
45:20You get some?
45:21What?
45:22Yeah.
45:23Y'all didn't invent doing fast to breaking things.
45:26We did.
45:28We need to be agile.
45:31And America is the greatest startup of them all.
45:34The future is coming.
45:35We like that startup energy.
45:38We're gonna require our contractors to look over existing genes.
45:44And let us know.
45:45You've heard about this.
45:47How far is life?
45:48Let's go to the movies.
45:50Hm?
45:54Born from carbon-woven composite skin.
45:57Wonderful speech, General.
45:58I'm afraid we're gonna have to bump Mr. Roughage.
46:00We pay overtime if we go even a minute over.
46:03But wait.
46:03Since he wasn't part of the original program,
46:07is he gonna have trouble reimbursing his room?
46:09Yeah.
46:10That's $2,100 a night.
46:12I mean, you could lie.
46:15Say you spoke.
46:16Just don't get caught.
46:17Don, let me say my piece.
46:18Five minutes.
46:19That's it.
46:20It's not about being reimbursed.
46:22It's for the vets.
46:23I find it best to leave these decisions to Major Martian.
46:29You son of a bitch.
46:32You set me up to fuck me down.
46:34How long are you gonna hold a grudge?
46:37Oh, you know what?
46:38To hell with this.
46:40I'm speaking.
46:41You can just try and stop me.
46:44Ow!
46:51Okay.
47:13Hey, handsome.
47:14Hey, Dad.
47:15How's it going?
47:15Not bad.
47:16Not for an old geezer.
47:18How's it going there?
47:19When did school start?
47:20Day after Labor Day, I think.
47:24This place just feels like a weird simmaculum of life.
47:29Simulacrum.
47:30Simulacrum.
47:31There's these clients who pay to come see Mom and Gary on the hour.
47:36It's so weird.
47:36And there's this one guy who's worth like a bazillion dollars, but he's the saddest man you've
47:40ever seen.
47:40The world there is not the world.
47:45Your mother loved it.
47:47I did not.
47:48Yeah.
47:49I really want to come home.
47:52Soon.
47:53December 19th.
47:54The day this semester ends.
47:56And I checked.
47:58On the 21st, BSO is playing Berlioz's Symphony Fantastique.
48:01Berlioz.
48:02In a worst case scenario, you do both semesters out there.
48:22Shit.
48:23Shit.
48:35Shit.
48:37...
48:42...
48:45...
48:47...
48:47...
48:51...
48:52...
48:53...
49:10Yeah, hi, Sandra, Dr. Jerry Calder.
49:13Yeah, a prescription for a patient, Teresa Pister, 17 years old.
49:19Yeah.
49:23It's a cesspool of idiots.
49:26Guys like me and you making a median wage.
49:30Guys who actually make this country run.
49:33Mm-hmm.
49:34Who need to know what they're doing or else people, real people, will suffer.
49:40I mean, what do we get for keeping the wheels on the bus from falling off?
49:44Why did, uh, Voorhees fire you?
49:48I don't know who remembers.
49:51I might have bought them for his son.
49:56Don Jr.
49:57Oof.
49:58That's what he wanted to be called.
50:01Yeah.
50:02Wow.
50:02I know.
50:03They're military.
50:05Like, and should I be all gung-ho like, where's my jam?
50:07Or is it like, oh, we don't talk about blood and guts and stuff like that?
50:12Just be yourself.
50:14Who else would it be, huh?
50:15Duncan, this is the story you need.
50:17Yes, right, righto.
50:19Once more on to the beach.
50:20Bye.
50:22Hey, go back to D.C.
50:24I need you there.
50:26Keep an eye on the jackals.
50:28They see safety net and all they think is, where'd I put my scissors?
50:31You're staying.
50:32Yeah.
50:33You hate it here.
50:34I hate it everywhere.
50:36I complain so much.
50:37I've lost track of where things fall on my color wheel of shit.
50:42Saw one big brown smear.
50:45You'll be pointing D.C., okay?
50:48We'll talk every day.
50:49It's a rubbish.
50:50Judge, Duncan Park, CEO of Hypernosis, data analytics.
50:54I hear you need a data man to help our fighting men in uniform and women.
51:00Can I get you a round of drinks?
51:02Uh, yeah.
51:03Yeah, two of those.
51:04Gentlemen, what can I, what can I do for, I am sorry, I don't, is it the Army?
51:11Is it the Navy, Marines?
51:13Air Force and Coast Guard, too.
51:17Cowabunga, right?
51:18I mean, what, what can Hypernosis do to help us win our next war?
51:22Uh, well, it's really the last war we're still fighting.
51:27Okay, of course.
51:29Of course.
51:30Tracking down the terrorists.
51:32So you give us your satellite feed, your secret files, and we, we meld that with our data.
51:37We cross it.
51:38We blend it.
51:39We dig into it.
51:40We find the patterns.
51:41We find your bad guys.
51:42You just, you just pull the trigger.
51:44Done.
51:44Win-win.
51:45I mean, not for the guys that you're blowing up, but that, no, they're kind of into it, too.
51:49It's their martyrdom.
51:50So it's, it's actually a win-win-win.
51:53That's sort of the slogan for Hypernosis.
51:56Ah.
51:57Um, it's just, what, we represent America's veterans.
52:03We're the VA.
52:15How'd it go?
52:17What's the matter?
52:19Duncan, slow down.
52:22I told you they were from the VA.
52:24You, you said military.
52:26Okay, I need a sexy new client, not old urine-soaked vets with the, the weird, the hats and broken
52:32brains.
52:33I thought you got that.
52:33Sorry I hooked you up with a bloody government contract.
52:36There are more than one kind, okay?
52:38More than one kind.
52:39There are stealth bombers and secret agents, and then there's distributing colostomy bags in tent cities.
52:43These men and women, they fought so that, so that we, we here could be free here.
52:51I admire them, and I, I've seen the alternatives.
52:55But I chose to make a life here, and in spite of its flaws, I'm grateful.
52:59Well, then you should have had Cupertino be their hero, okay?
53:01My company is not your ethical laundry mat, okay?
53:09I have a reputation, okay?
53:11I know it's not great, what people say about me, but, but this is not, this is not the story
53:18I needed.
53:19Okay, this is just, this is goodwill fuckery, and your buddy, Little Tim.
53:23Little Tim.
53:25That's exactly what he's going to say when he leaks the acquisition fail.
53:29No.
53:29Yes, yes it is.
53:30I, I, I, I see how that guy looks at me.
53:33Like I'm lying in a ditch with my asshole sticking up inside out, so he can drive up with his
53:40bodies and go like,
53:41hey guys, isn't that Duncan Park in that ditch with his asshole sticking up inside out?
53:46Yeah, I know how people are.
53:48Because I'm one of them.
53:50I'm a person, and I'm like that.
53:53So you're walking away?
53:55You're goddamn right, and you're going to tell the VA guys.
53:57That is your punishment, okay?
53:59Just put them out of their misery.
54:01They've probably been to more funerals than birthdays anyway.
54:03They can take it.
54:04Thanks.
54:06Thanks.
54:13Message from Harper.
54:20Message, message from Harper.
54:22Message, message, message from Harper.
54:30You gotta be kidding me.
54:39Um, before we start, I think it's important to ensure your commitment to the doctor-patient confidentiality thing.
54:48You know everything about me, as it should be.
54:50And as you know, I have trust issues.
54:54Duncan, where are we going with this?
54:58Easier to hear me out.
54:59Um, on May 7th, you missed a session due to the flu, but you were actually getting varicose veins removed.
55:09Hypernosis, my company, we harvest your data every time you click agree.
55:13And then we put that all into an algorithm that would make the Patriot Act blush.
55:18Anything, everywhere, anybody.
55:21I know.
55:22All that godlike knowledge, and still, Cupertino didn't want us.
55:26But the thing is, we're not all that unique.
55:30The amount of companies with as much or more capability than the NSA would give you.
55:36Here, Russia, China, India, they all have what I have on you.
55:40If they only cared to look.
55:42Duncan, um, I fear that you, you may be having a psychotic episode.
55:49Half of it's public filings and court cases, like how you and your ex-husband both try to dodge custody
55:53of the kid.
55:55Pretty sure a little Orwell would love to hear that.
56:00Okay.
56:02Okay.
56:04You need to leave.
56:06Right now.
56:07You need to face the discomforts of your truths, Jojo.
56:11Okay.
56:14Okay.
56:14When I told you my company was in trouble, within 53 seconds of me leaving this office, you sold your
56:19shares.
56:20And I was like, what?
56:21That hurt?
56:22No faith in Dunkey?
56:24And then I asked myself, I was like, why did she have shares in my company?
56:29Sounds like a conflict of interest.
56:31No?
56:31Oh my goodness.
56:32Could it be?
56:33Yes.
56:34Yes, it is.
56:35You've been running a magnificent scam on all your high-end, blubbering billionaire clients.
56:41You, the trusted repository of the Valley's ultimate insider information.
56:46VC agonizing about an upcoming earnings call sell.
56:50CEO hopes his wife finally respects him after an upcoming secret merger.
56:54Bye.
56:55What's the harm?
56:56Except it's a felony and you can go to jail for it.
56:59Duncan, this is madness.
57:01You are confabulating and it's a concern.
57:05That superior tone is something I really would like you to work on.
57:09Sit.
57:10Sit, please.
57:13We're both flawed human beings, you and I.
57:17With your degree, you could have chosen to help filthy city urchins with their nasty demons,
57:22but no, no, no.
57:23You planted yourself in the single richest enclave in America to help cure the scourge for performance anxiety.
57:31Sudden wealth syndrome?
57:32No.
57:34You profited.
57:36It really is okay and you'll still profit.
57:39Me too.
57:41Because you're going to dish all that life-giving dirt to me.
57:46Not today, though.
57:47No.
57:48Today, I feel comfortable.
57:51Earthed.
57:52There's level ground between us.
57:56Feels better, right?
57:58So can we please, just, please, talk about my dad?
58:19Hello?
58:21Hello?
58:23Hello?
58:23Hello?
58:23Hello?
58:23Hello?
58:26Hello?
58:28Hello?
58:29Hello?
58:31Hello?
58:33Hello?
