00:07:31You're done, right?
00:07:33Yeah, you're done.
00:07:54Gary, he landed. Early.
00:07:57Oh, no, damn it, we're late.
00:08:00Yeah, have a lunch.
00:08:02Yeah, well, bring it.
00:08:04Orson's just wandering around the airport.
00:08:06Where are my damn keys?
00:08:08You've got Wi-Fi and snacks, right?
00:08:10You get to the airport.
00:08:11I told him we're already on our way.
00:08:13Well, I don't know.
00:08:16Pick up your phone.
00:08:18Gary!
00:08:19You're yelling, Joanne.
00:08:20Being hysterical doesn't make you a better parent.
00:08:23Oh, that's him.
00:08:23Honey?
00:08:25Hi, what lore's investment?
00:08:27Uh, sorry, but I can't talk.
00:08:29Unwavering confidence.
00:08:31A hat I can wear.
00:08:32I have that hat.
00:08:34Hey, Joanne, I'm looking at a light fixture.
00:08:36Can you?
00:08:37I, sorry, we talked about this, Duncan.
00:08:39You can't just call me out of the blue.
00:08:41But I have a plan.
00:08:42Listen, I point to the fabulous stock price, which remains fabulous for the moment, and
00:08:46I say I will sell another tranche in private secondary offerings.
00:08:50Who's wet for it?
00:08:51Okay?
00:08:52If I could Viagra the price and keep it up long enough, I could be like, suck it, Cupertino.
00:08:56Suck it and weep.
00:08:57No ding.
00:08:57All dong.
00:08:58Sorry, but if you're leveraging the high stock price when you know the stock's going to fall,
00:09:02isn't that fraud?
00:09:03Fraud?
00:09:04For a market manipulation, I mean, won't that arouse suspicion with the SEC?
00:09:07First of all, I don't know the stock's going to fall.
00:09:10I'm not Nosferatu.
00:09:11Fraud?
00:09:12What?
00:09:14You know what?
00:09:14Instead of accusation, a smidgen of validation would be nice.
00:09:18Duncan, I'm going to have to take this.
00:09:20No, you just accused me of fraud.
00:09:21It's my son, and he is alone at the airport.
00:09:24I don't care if he's in a stranger's van licking lollipops.
00:09:27You do not hang up on me now.
00:09:29Goodbye, Duncan.
00:09:29No, no goodbye.
00:09:30Nope, nope.
00:09:31Gary, oh, my God, it's a sandwich.
00:09:35Would you hurry up?
00:09:39Fuck!
00:09:59You are going to love Los Altos.
00:10:01It's very progressive, but they're not fruity about it.
00:10:05Last year, Los Altos was the top feeder for Stanford, including Pali.
00:10:15You familiar?
00:10:21Did your father send your transcripts from Baltimore?
00:10:24I know he's not feeling well, but your tuition's normally 90 grand, and there's no way your dad would pay
00:10:28for that.
00:10:29But there was a scholarship that no one was using.
00:10:31So you'd be surprised how hard it is to find underprivileged youth around here.
00:10:35And as it turns out, your father's illness qualified as a hardship.
00:10:38So, I guess he is paying for it.
00:10:43Not...
00:10:46I didn't mean in a karmic sense.
00:10:48Orson, you know I didn't mean it like that.
00:10:49My gosh, you've gotten tall.
00:10:51Can we go inside?
00:10:53I just need to know if your father sent the transcripts.
00:10:55It was the one thing he was supposed to do.
00:10:58He just got out of the fucking hospital.
00:11:00Whoa, whoa.
00:11:00Hey, Orson, we don't talk that way to one another.
00:11:03We just try to use constructive language, please.
00:11:10Okay, so, um, kitchen, living room, you remember where everything is.
00:11:16Well, actually, we have moved things around a little since you were last here.
00:11:20That's my office now, and, uh, Gary's is over there.
00:11:23Clients come around the back.
00:11:25If you see any of them, just ignore them.
00:11:27Some are professionals.
00:11:28Some are even kids from your school.
00:11:30All normal people.
00:11:31Just, you know, sad.
00:11:32Um, through here.
00:11:35So, uh, the room you stayed in last time, the ceiling has termite damage,
00:11:40and then the garage apartment flooded don't even get me started.
00:11:43But the, the bedroom down here is all fixed up,
00:11:48so the whole bottom floor is yours.
00:11:51Oh, uh, Virginia, did you see that I, I left sheets on the dryer?
00:11:55I already make his bed.
00:11:56Yes, I, I, I know, but I, I got him sheets.
00:11:59Special.
00:12:08Where's the bathroom?
00:12:08It's just around the...
00:12:13It's so nice to have you home.
00:12:16Okay, Xander, just try mirroring.
00:12:20So if they smile,
00:12:23if they smile,
00:12:25Xander, can you try holding the smile?
00:12:27It's what people do.
00:12:34You can do it.
00:12:35Here, hold,
00:12:37and let it fade.
00:12:38Let it fade.
00:12:39Martin!
00:12:41Are we actually drinking tonight?
00:12:44Or just pretending to drink?
00:12:46Oh, shit.
00:12:49Chop, chop.
00:12:50I'm not dressed.
00:12:51Your clothes are out.
00:12:55Hey, Tess.
00:12:59Tess, you all right?
00:13:01I think John has made you mac and cheese or something.
00:13:04I have to go.
00:13:06Martin's finally inching towards a funding round
00:13:08for his little friend, Bart.
00:13:10He knows he can't keep spending our money on his digital child.
00:13:13But I have an actual company that needs saving,
00:13:16and you're on the board.
00:13:17It's your fiduciary duty to come and tell me everything's going to be okay.
00:13:21Sorry, Kant.
00:13:23But you used to love to do your fiduciary duty with me.
00:13:27You're on your own.
00:13:49Rodrigo, call the ayahuasca guy and tie me.
00:14:04You look splendid.
00:14:06I'm very handsome.
00:14:08I feel like I'm cosplaying a version of me
00:14:10that would never talk to me.
00:14:11Xander said I look French.
00:14:13Take style advice from a widget or me.
00:14:15Your choice.
00:14:17Don't say widget.
00:14:23So, the Guangzhou factory, it's endless.
00:14:27It's 15 hours ahead, too,
00:14:29so I might have to pop out midway tonight.
00:14:34Forgive me.
00:14:51Come and be a winner.
00:14:56Come and be a winner.
00:15:26That's it, Duncan.
00:15:28I'm a pilot.
00:15:30Yeah.
00:15:37He's in a very sensitive place right now.
00:15:41I'm a pilot.
00:15:43What the hell?
00:15:45He didn't think you were coming.
00:15:47He begged me to come.
00:15:49Dad.
00:15:50Dad.
00:15:51Dad, you.
00:15:52Don't be mad.
00:15:54Yeah, um, I'll go.
00:15:55He wants to leave.
00:15:57Speak to Dad.
00:15:59Dad.
00:15:59Oh, my God.
00:16:01Dad.
00:16:01Dad.
00:16:02Dad.
00:16:02What do you wish to say to him?
00:16:09I'm rich.
00:16:11That's great.
00:16:13Dad.
00:16:14Dad.
00:16:16Dad.
00:16:19Help me.
00:16:20I hope no one's looking out the window.
00:16:46All right, go on.
00:16:47Get.
00:16:47In sheet.
00:16:49Great.
00:16:50We're going into the world's most profitable company wreaking that dude's cinnamon fucking patchouli.
00:17:09You good?
00:17:10Yeah, yeah.
00:17:11All right.
00:17:11All right.
00:17:12All right.
00:17:13All right.
00:17:15You must be the gentleman from the VA?
00:17:17Yeah, that's right.
00:17:18Just here.
00:17:21We used to run the world, Jeffrey.
00:17:24Now we rent server space from the bastards who broke it.
00:17:28Good grief.
00:17:30Oh, shit.
00:17:30Ruffage?
00:17:33Generalissimo.
00:17:34General Don Voorhees, Jeffrey Hart.
00:17:37Hi.
00:17:38Nice to meet you.
00:17:39What are you doing here?
00:17:40Oh, it's time to solve the backlog at the VA.
00:17:43Well, prepare to die with your boots on, boys.
00:17:46Well, about to meet with Tim.
00:17:49Just met with Tim.
00:17:50DOD arranged a conference in partnership with Cupertino.
00:17:54Technology of defense.
00:17:55Because the linear jagovs love these things.
00:17:58Yeah, nice.
00:18:00Nice.
00:18:00Hey, you know, tell me to get lost, but what if I spoke about our initiative at your conference?
00:18:07You know, make them feel like heroes for helping the actual heroes?
00:18:11Maybe.
00:18:12Major Marcia?
00:18:14Maybe.
00:18:14We'll let you know.
00:18:16Okay.
00:18:22Maybe.
00:18:24Guy fired me ten years ago.
00:18:27Prick.
00:18:33God damn it.
00:18:35Hi.
00:18:36Hi.
00:18:36I'm Anushka Bhattachera, Director of Ethical Innovation.
00:18:40Tim Kwan, Corp Dev.
00:18:41Jeffrey Hart, Assistant to the Deputy Undersecretary.
00:18:44Tom Ruffage, Deputy Undersecretary, Veterans Affairs.
00:18:48All right.
00:18:50Oh, just here?
00:18:51Yeah.
00:18:51Oh, yeah, sure.
00:18:53Okay.
00:18:53But, uh, will the other Tim be joining?
00:18:59Big Tim only shows up when the contours are delimited.
00:19:03Uh-huh.
00:19:04Uh-huh.
00:19:05So, uh, you guys got a traffic jam needs clearing.
00:19:08Yeah, we do indeed.
00:19:10Tim, Big Tim, he likes things super direct.
00:19:15Mm-hmm.
00:19:15Uncluttered.
00:19:16Right?
00:19:17So, straightforwardly, what's the quant been for us?
00:19:23I'm still pretending to know what delimited contours means.
00:19:28Quant been is quantifiable benefits.
00:19:32Got it.
00:19:33Yeah.
00:19:35Well, I mean, uh, I don't know.
00:19:38Uh, you're here.
00:19:41You live here.
00:19:43And you and me and Jeffrey and Anushka and Big Tim, we're all here.
00:19:48There are men and women who fought for us to be here and live like this, you know, free
00:19:57to make a business, to speak our minds, to make ungodly sums of money.
00:20:03But for the men and the women who actually put themselves on the front lines to defend
00:20:12the socioeconomic system in which you and your company thrive, I mean, they're not even asking
00:20:17you for a favor.
00:20:20In fact, they want to pay you a quarter of a billion dollars.
00:20:26It's for your help.
00:20:30So, us helping you do the work is kind of like, I don't know, um, France helping your
00:20:38mother set up her printer.
00:20:40You know?
00:20:42France, but with, like, much, much, much more money than France.
00:20:46Uh-huh.
00:20:47Yeah.
00:20:48Oh, you guys get it?
00:20:49Oh, yeah.
00:20:49Okay.
00:20:50Yeah?
00:20:50We, of course, recognize the sacrifice of your, your people.
00:20:58They're struggling.
00:20:59And we, we feel that.
00:21:06Oh.
00:21:07You feel it?
00:21:08Uh-huh.
00:21:08We feel it, guys.
00:21:09We feel it.
00:21:10You must be really feeling it.
00:21:13Yeah.
00:21:14Well, thank you, Anushka.
00:21:16This has been, um, what's the opposite of uplifting?
00:21:21Uh, demoralizing.
00:21:22Yeah, demo.
00:21:23Ha-ha.
00:21:24I bet.
00:21:25In these parts.
00:21:26Come on, Jeffrey.
00:21:26We got other meetings.
00:21:36Our 11 o'clock has to postpone until next week.
00:21:41Uh, it's Major Marsha.
00:21:43Boris says you're welcome.
00:21:48You're speaking at the conference.
00:21:50No.
00:21:51DoD will cover a junior suite at the Elysium, if we're all right with sharing.
00:21:55You just need to reserve it on your card, and they will reimburse you.
00:21:59You okay with sharing a suite?
00:22:00I'll take the couch.
00:22:01No.
00:22:01No.
00:22:02I've been a full-time pain in the ass.
00:22:04You deserve it.
00:22:05Damn!
00:22:06The Elysium is the shit.
00:22:09I thought that guy'd never forgive me.
00:22:11Why?
00:22:12What'd you do to get fired?
00:22:13Doesn't matter now.
00:22:15Booyah!
00:22:28Hello?
00:22:30Honey, we can hear you.
00:22:32No bassoon during office hours.
00:22:36Very sorry about that, Carl.
00:22:39It's fine.
00:22:40No, no.
00:22:41No, it's not.
00:22:41This is, this is your time.
00:22:44Well, might as well fill the emptiness with bagpipes or whatever the hell that was.
00:22:50Lord knows, I was just going to complain anyway, and who wants to hear me complain?
00:22:53Boo-hoo, poor old rich fart.
00:22:56We all deserve to complain.
00:22:58Not the Richies.
00:23:01People act like we took something.
00:23:04As if we didn't build everything they touch.
00:23:07Mm-hmm.
00:23:07And we didn't build it to be worshipped.
00:23:09We built it to work, and it does work.
00:23:12But where's our parade?
00:23:15All I see are pitchforks and ingratitude.
00:23:18And I gotta be honest with you, it's starting to make me maybe a little mental.
00:23:23Would you like to starfish, Carl?
00:23:27Okay, yeah.
00:23:34Great.
00:23:36I'm backsliding, Joanne.
00:23:40This shithill came up to me at Milltown, my haunt.
00:23:44The one place that I could go to in public when no one bothers me.
00:23:48Mm-hmm.
00:23:49And right before I get ready to bite into my T-bone, this stivilling shitstick sits, sits at my table.
00:24:00And he's like, oh, Mr. Mardoff, you're such an inspiration.
00:24:04Of course, he brings up Mardoff's Law.
00:24:06He was admiring you.
00:24:08Doesn't it make you feel even a little bit good to see your legacy in action?
00:24:13Mardoff's Law is something I wrote on a napkin on speed when we still have fax machines.
00:24:17Profits will continue to grow forever, right?
00:24:20Infinite growth.
00:24:21Yes.
00:24:21That's the logic of the cancer cell.
00:24:23If I could have just reached out and throttled and just squeezed and squeezed that little shit-licker's trachea
00:24:32until it buckled and his eyes popped, that would have been a legacy.
00:24:38But I didn't.
00:24:40I didn't.
00:24:42Okay, Zeus.
00:24:45Go get it.
00:24:48Zeus.
00:24:49Come on, buddy.
00:24:51You gotta get it.
00:24:59You gotta get it.
00:25:01I'm sorry.
00:25:06Hey, boy.
00:25:08Trying to teach you some new tricks, huh?

00:33:07I don't know your name.
00:33:08What is it?
00:33:09Harper.
00:33:09Harper.
00:33:10Harper.
00:33:10Hi.
00:33:10Um, I can count on your complete discretion.
00:33:14I can count on you with this.
00:33:15Right?
00:33:16What do you want?
00:33:17Um...
00:33:17I want to get you something.
00:33:19I...
00:33:20What do you need?
00:33:21What do you need?
00:33:21Anything.
00:33:21An office of my own.
00:33:43Jameson, hey, kiddo.
00:33:45What are you up to these days?
00:33:48Soccer tournament?
00:33:49Stalker tournament.
00:33:50That sounds...
00:33:51Soccer.
00:33:52Mm-hmm.
00:33:52Soccer.
00:33:53I prefer skiing and squash, but they have wealth connotations.
00:33:56Uh-huh.
00:33:57Soccer's more relatable.
00:33:58Hey, Tessie's here somewhere.
00:34:00You two should get together.
00:34:02When's the last time you guys had a sleepover?
00:34:05Not since, like, seventh grade.
00:34:08Okay, can you just hold that face?
00:34:12I'm building an intelligent entity, more of an autonomous companion for alienated teens
00:34:17based on personal data ecosystems, but it has been a real slog to replicate a genuine
00:34:23look of bothersomeness.
00:34:24Thanks, Jamie.
00:34:28Okay, just a second.
00:34:29Sweetie.
00:34:30Sweetie.
00:34:32Next bite of the lemon square tastes exactly like the first.
00:34:36Yeah.
00:34:38I don't know how many of those she's eaten.
00:34:40You try.
00:34:42You try.
00:34:42I mean, it's hard.
00:34:43It's really hard being a mom.
00:34:45It's hard.
00:35:06Honey, swim first, then eat, just so you don't have any digestion issues in the park
00:35:11off-setter's pool.
00:35:13Can we talk, please?
00:35:15Our next session in the office.
00:35:17Well, I'd rather do it now.
00:35:20Duncan, circumstances don't always align with our wishes.
00:35:41Your parents gave you a smartphone?
00:35:45Uh, yeah.
00:35:46Yours don't.
00:35:48Smarts are worse than hard drugs.
00:35:49Twice as addictive.
00:35:51Doesn't every parent here, like, work on tech stuff?
00:35:56Arms dealers don't give their kids landmines.
00:35:59Thanks.
00:36:13Oh, my God.
00:36:55Oh, my God.
00:37:00Oh, poor Tessie.
00:37:03Stealing the flag off the flagpole, turning the exit signs into no exit signs.
00:37:08So deep.
00:37:10Or just another cry for help.
00:37:13You found me out, Jimmy.
00:37:15Just remember, if it comes down to it, it's across the street for attention.
00:37:20Up the road if you want results.
00:37:39Hello.
00:37:40Oh, you're not ashamed to be seen with me?
00:37:43What are you talking about?
00:37:47Everybody from Cupertino?
00:37:49Tim?
00:37:50Little Tim.
00:37:52The guy's staring at me like he's trying to castrate me telepathically.
00:37:56It's working, too.
00:37:58He's just gloating.
00:37:59What?
00:38:00Why?
00:38:01He convinced Brick Tim to shut down the acquisition talks.
00:38:05He, mind you, after you leaked the rumor.
00:38:09What did he say?
00:38:10It wasn't that.
00:38:13But I heard he called you a dumb man's genius.
00:38:16At least on someone's genius.
00:38:18Not everybody's asshole.
00:38:20He comes to my house.
00:38:21He comes to my house.
00:38:22He's gloating.
00:38:23That is...
00:38:25How much of my stock do you own, huh?
00:38:27Little Tim blabs about the acquisition snafu to any of these people here?
00:38:30Anyone?
00:38:31He won't.
00:38:32Okay.
00:38:32He won't.
00:38:32Yeah, well, he better not.
00:38:34I'm just saying, you stand to lose, too.
00:38:36I know.
00:38:36That's why I had to firewall myself off from all of it.
00:38:39Oh, and yet you still heard him call me a dumbass.
00:38:41That just happened to get through your firewall.
00:38:44The zinger.
00:38:45I mean, he is...
00:38:46He is cutting me off.
00:38:47They're the balls here.
00:38:49I need you to shut that shit down.
00:38:51Is it the stock you're worried about or your dick?
00:38:54It's one and the same.
00:39:19So, this whole experience is, you know, quite out of the box for me.
00:39:24Yeah.
00:39:24It's a great community.
00:39:25It seems everyone is so lovely here.
00:39:27Happy to get to work and bring my daughter to give her the best opportunity.
00:39:31Oh, uh, by the way, Lily knows you came to my session last night?
00:39:36Yeah, I know.
00:39:36I texted her.
00:39:39Why would you do that?
00:39:41Misunderstandings.
00:39:42They're unpredictable, costly, and easily avoidable with a bit of truth.
00:39:45Well, it got lost in translation.
00:39:46She went and banged a guy at Napa.
00:39:49Oh!
00:39:50Oh!
00:39:51That is not...
00:39:52I'm sorry.
00:39:52No, I know.
00:39:53I know.
00:39:54I know.
00:39:54I'm sorry.
00:39:55I just wanted to give Lily a nod of respect and agency.
00:39:58Well, mission's super-duper accomplished.
00:40:00Don't.
00:40:01It's...
00:40:02No.
00:40:02Okay.
00:40:03No.
00:40:04You sound like a truffle pig.
00:40:06Don't do that.
00:40:19I want to officially introduce the reason we're all here.
00:40:22An educator who took a top 50 in Pasadena to the top five.
00:40:27Before that, master's from Columbia, Harvard before that, and a terrifically underprivileged
00:40:35upbringing in Chicago.
00:40:36I knew the minute I heard her speak at the Aspen Education Summit that she was the one
00:40:43to lead us into the future.
00:40:45Raising money off frothy numbers to sugarcoat the rotten apple is what built this town.
00:40:49I give you...
00:40:50It's not fraud.
00:40:51Not now, Duncan.
00:40:52If not now, I will do harm to myself and or others.
00:40:56Jesus, it's funny.
00:41:00Uh, goodness, I, um, should have prepared something.
00:41:07I know you're all ready for a new chapter at La Seltas.
00:41:15Oh.
00:41:15Orson.
00:41:16Hey.
00:41:17I, uh, I, what?
00:41:20Hey.
00:41:20Hey, sorry.
00:41:23Ooh.
00:41:26I can't lay to think her.
00:41:29Let's make this a great meal.
00:41:43Hi, um, this is, this is weird, but I was in there and I, I saw you take that thing.
00:41:50You don't know what you're talking about, bro?
00:41:52Uh, well, that guy in there, he just, he saw me come out of the library and he might
00:41:56think that I took it.
00:41:58Like, if so facto or whatever.
00:42:01Um.
00:42:19Okay, so listen.
00:42:20I'm in crisis.
00:42:22Right now.
00:42:22This is, you're looking at it.
00:42:25And my therapist, who's supposed to know me better than anyone, thinks I'm a fraud.
00:42:30Okay, Duncan, I, I, I didn't call you a fraud, okay?
00:42:34Well.
00:42:34I said, what I said was that you, you might be committing fraud.
00:42:38What is the difference?
00:42:39You're not a murderer.
00:42:40You're just someone who committed murder.
00:42:42And here, when you use the word fraud in the valley, that's kind of like saying, good hustle.
00:42:48Okay, I, I, I spoke to a lawyer friend.
00:42:53What, what, what?
00:42:53I didn't mention your name or anything.
00:42:56Why would you, why would you talk to a lawyer?
00:42:58What?
00:42:59Oh, you haven't done anything about this, yet acted on any of it.
00:43:04I've done the analytics.
00:43:05You know, I, I, I, I bag a high profile investor.
00:43:09And then everybody forgets about Cupertino.
00:43:11And we grow, we grow.
00:43:13I'm sexy again.
00:43:14Come and get it.
00:43:15But you'd have to lie to, to do it.
00:43:18It's, it's, it's market manipulation and it is a felony.
00:43:22A felony, a felony.
00:43:24No, look.
00:43:25Okay, here.
00:43:26You, you came here today, right?
00:43:28And I'm just going to assume to benefit your business, right?
00:43:32To snarf up a bunch of potential hotshot clients and their fucked up kids.
00:43:35That's.
00:43:36No.
00:43:37I.
00:43:40My child is attending Los Altos.
00:43:43You don't have a child.
00:43:45You just met him.
00:43:48The pooter?
00:43:49Okay.
00:43:50No, I'm sorry.
00:43:51I'm sorry.
00:43:51I think that we should be getting back to your guest.
00:43:53I just had an uh-huh.
00:43:54I did.
00:43:54It's a really good one.
00:43:56Okay.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:58Okay.
00:43:58Out of all your illustrious clients, right?
00:44:02Maybe there is one or two in my arena or adjacent and that maybe their business needs aligned with mine.
00:44:10And, and maybe their personalities match as well.
00:44:12And you could set us up for, I don't know, a lunch or.
00:44:16Okay.
00:44:16I am not a dating service for businessmen, Duncan.
00:44:20I am a therapist and you need to respect that.
00:44:24Okay.
00:44:24Life coaches do it all the time.
00:44:26I am not a, I am not a life coach.
00:44:28No, no.
00:44:29I, listen, I want to continue doing the work.
00:44:31I do, with you, with you.
00:44:33Then I think that you need to face the discomfort of your truths.
00:44:40You pumped your stock.
00:44:43Right?
00:44:45Yeah, and now you want to do more of it?
00:44:48I mean, if the SEC find out, you could go to jail.
00:44:51Jail, don't.
00:44:53Yeah, well, you wouldn't be the first CEO to end up there.
00:44:57You make me feel worse.
00:44:59You do.
00:45:00That is not your job.
00:45:01I'm pretty sure that is the opposite of your job.
00:45:04Okay, this is right here.
00:45:06This is why we have sessions in an office.
00:45:09Boundaries.
00:45:10Okay, look, I, I, I, I apologize, Duncan, and I am ending this conversation right now.
00:45:16No, hey, wait, listen.
00:45:17Lily's having an affair.
00:45:23See, I'm just a bit agitated more than usual, and you keep bringing up the SEC and lawyer and...
00:45:30Well, I am a...
00:45:31Listen, I, I depend on you, and I respect you.
00:45:35There is...
00:45:39There's no one else.
00:45:50Oh, man, that's a good shower.
00:45:53Yeah.
00:45:55Wow.
00:45:56Finally!
00:45:57An ounce of respect for the VA, huh?
00:46:00All right.
00:46:01Some legit above-board decadence.
00:46:06Yeah, I just wish the meetings went better.
00:46:09Oh, no pouting, Jeffrey.
00:46:10Come on, no feelings in a firefight.
00:46:13Smell this.
00:46:16Bergamot.
00:46:17Smells good.
00:46:17Yeah.
00:46:18Earl Grey, right?
00:46:20Yeah.
00:46:21Come on, look around.
00:46:22We're doing okay.
00:46:23I'm gonna do my pitch tonight.
00:46:26All the wigs will be there, the big ones, the little ones.
00:46:29Hell yeah.
00:46:29I will make my case, I'll be passionate.
00:46:33I'm great when I'm passionate.
00:46:38Do you want to help me get passionate?
00:46:46Tom, what about the behavioral health forum in Fairlawn, huh?
00:46:52Backseat of that car?
00:46:53Yeah, I got you drunk.
00:46:56Cross the line.
00:46:57Sorry.
00:46:59But, you know, if I'm being honest, not sorry.
00:47:05I wasn't that drunk.
00:47:07Oh.
00:47:12But, uh...
00:47:14Yeah, yeah.
00:47:17I was younger once, you know.
00:47:19Oh, no.
00:47:19Handsomer.
00:47:20No, no, no.
00:47:21All the officers' wives wanted me.
00:47:24Yeah, you wanted the officers.
00:47:27Yeah.
00:47:27Yeah.
00:47:29You're still handsome.
00:47:30Mm.
00:47:31And my boss.
00:47:33Yeah.
00:47:34Right.
00:47:35Yeah.
00:47:39You're gonna be great.
00:47:41Yeah.
00:47:42You'll get some.
00:47:44Wow.
00:47:45Yeah.
00:47:46Y'all didn't invent moving fast and breaking things.
00:47:49We did.
00:47:51We need to be agile.
00:47:54And America is the greatest startup of them all.
00:47:57The future is coming.
00:47:58We like that startup energy.
00:48:02We're gonna require our contractors to look over existing genes.
00:48:07And let us know what we're good about.
00:48:10Come first place.
00:48:12Let's go to the movies.
00:48:14Hm?
00:48:18Born from carbon woven composite skin.
00:48:21Wonderful speech, General.
00:48:23I'm afraid we're gonna have to bump Mr. Ruffage.
00:48:25We'd pay overtime if we go even a minute over.
00:48:27But wait.
00:48:28Since he wasn't part of the original program,
00:48:32is he gonna have trouble reimbursing his room?
00:48:34Yeah.
00:48:35That's $2,100 a night.
00:48:37I mean, you could lie.
00:48:40Say you spoke.

01:02:55duncan park 40s biohacked and bespectacled
01:02:58in episode one the first thing that i wrote down was duncan's opening line
01:03:03more than physical pain uh i fear humiliation
01:03:07and it felt like it was being said to somebody in confidence
01:03:11angle on dr joanne felder psychologist 40s
01:03:14she kind of runs the valley's mindset or the psychology
01:03:18the lost man children
01:03:20it became a question of how can we make this relationship more than just therapist patient
01:03:25they started the season a little bit in performance of themselves especially joanne
01:03:29she's like playing
01:03:30the good therapist

01:03:42discussing corporate secrets
01:03:44successes and failures
01:03:46in a therapeutic setting and what does the therapist do with the information which
01:03:51is essentially insider information
01:03:53really this is strictly between us
01:03:58schmuck

01:04:33the doctor patient confidentiality things is how airtight is that i can't speak with anyone about
01:04:39what you say not unless you're meaning to do harm to yourself or others i grew up in a house
01:04:44with a psychiatrist and a therapist with their offices in the house and i could hear the patients
01:04:52i was a teenager and i chose not to listen to them because they were mostly really boring
01:04:57but i could listen to them it's that sort of funny faith that this room's a safe space
01:05:03why what's so safe about it when i told you my company was in trouble within 53 seconds of me
01:05:09leaving this office you soldier shares these two seemingly are so different but then they actually
01:05:15have a lot in common she is shown to be somebody with ethical lapses who cuts corners herself it really
01:05:23is okay and you'll still profit me too because you're gonna dish all that life giving dirt to me
