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?
00:25:11A little late for that, don't you think?
00:25:13Tricks are for kids.
00:25:19One day, you're chasing squirrels, and then the next, you're shitting yourself on the good Persian rug.
00:25:27Ain't right.
00:25:34Sorry.
00:25:35I don't know.
00:25:35I don't know.

00:25:49I don't know.
00:25:50I don't know.
00:25:50I don't know.

00:26:39You had a game.
00:26:40How was the game?
00:26:41Or was it a match?
00:26:42We lost.
00:26:44That's how we learn.
00:26:45Yeah, okay.
00:26:46So these lemons, these wines,
00:26:48I don't know what they're doing over there.
00:26:52Oh, look who's alive.
00:26:54Yes, I am alive.
00:26:56Anton came over for a session last night.
00:26:59Right.
00:26:59And it was expansive.
00:27:04You really ought to try it.
00:27:06The puke juice?
00:27:07No.
00:27:08I had a snag at work.
00:27:12A little bit more than a snag,
00:27:14but Lily, my dad came to me in a vision
00:27:17and showed me a path forward.
00:27:20Right.
00:27:22Guests arrive at one, Duncan.
00:27:24Yes?
00:27:24The reception?
00:27:27For Beatrice, the new headmaster
00:27:29at your daughter's school.
00:27:30Nice.
00:27:31I think maybe a shower is in order.
00:27:33Okay.
00:27:34Oh, um,
00:27:37and with regards to our arrangement
00:27:40and in keeping with what we discussed,
00:27:44I did meet someone in Napa at the Mappas,
00:27:47a Danish CFO.
00:27:50Of course, we use protection.
00:27:53Oh.
00:27:54Fun guy.
00:27:56You'd like him.
00:27:57Oh.
00:27:59Oh.
00:27:59I know Induska was here last night.
00:28:03So, that's back on.
00:28:05You were supposed to tell me.
00:28:06No, no, no.
00:28:08She...
00:28:10That's all in the past.
00:28:11She was here as a friend.
00:28:12Right.
00:28:14Danish CEO?
00:28:15VFO.
00:28:17Okay.
00:28:18Brush your teeth.
00:28:19Okay.
00:28:19Your breath stinks.
00:28:20Yeah.
00:28:28Oh, Rodrigo.
00:28:29You're fired.
00:28:30Good one.
00:28:30No, you're fired.
00:28:31You told Lily Anushka was here last night.
00:28:33What?
00:28:33No, I didn't.
00:28:34Yes, you did.
00:28:36Lucky?
00:28:36Yeah.
00:28:37So, that dragon tattoo chick,
00:28:38I need that algo she did on that guy
00:28:40that was doing that thing that one time.
00:28:42Is that illegal?
00:28:43No.
00:28:44No.
00:28:44It's not illegal.
00:28:46Just frowned upon.
00:28:47Okay.
00:28:47Hold on.
00:28:48Yep.
00:28:49Lucky, are you still there?
00:28:50Yeah, I'm here.
00:28:51Okay, listen to me.
00:28:52It was Napa Valley, 29th,
00:28:54and the mud baths.
00:28:55Got it.
00:28:56Danish CFO.
00:28:57Like, you know,
00:28:5730, 30, 30, 30.
00:28:59Get me that, uh,
00:29:00code monkey with the pink hair.
00:29:02The none of the above
00:29:03with the door knocker in her nose.
00:29:04Sorry, their nose.
00:29:05Just get her.
00:29:05On it, Duncan.
00:29:11Hey, uh,
00:29:12Kip, get up.
00:29:13What is this?
00:29:14Get up from behind my desk with him.
00:29:16Did anyone see you sitting there?
00:29:17I don't think so.
00:29:18How's progress?
00:29:19Uh, the, uh, gentleman
00:29:20from the Napa mud baths
00:29:22is now in Copenhagen.
00:29:23Okay.
00:29:24Get him.
00:29:25What's the problem?
00:29:26In Europe, this is against...
00:29:27This is America.
00:29:28We have our own rules here.
00:29:29I mean, we play football
00:29:30with a football.
00:29:32Okay.
00:29:32Um, this algo
00:29:33is an AI-powered threat shield
00:29:35intended to protect people
00:29:36and their privacy.
00:29:37I know.
00:29:37I've seen it.
00:29:38And I find its scope
00:29:39annoyingly narrow.
00:29:41It synthesizes socials,
00:29:42biometrics, financials.
00:29:44Your current algo
00:29:45is just a data aggregator
00:29:47that can account
00:29:48for orphaned info sets,
00:29:49which is fine
00:29:50for your corporate clients,
00:29:52but not performant
00:29:53under data-rich scenarios.
00:29:55So,
00:29:57this is,
00:29:58I mean,
00:29:58it can capture
00:29:59someone's entire
00:29:59digital footprint
00:30:00in a heartbeat.
00:30:03Now you're making
00:30:04my heartbeat.
00:30:05Its scope is basically
00:30:07God's eye.
00:30:08Good.
00:30:09Super scopey, then.
00:30:10But in the wrong hands,
00:30:11it could...
00:30:12It could...
00:30:12Whose hands are you
00:30:13talking about my hands?
00:30:16Hmm?
00:30:17Listen, you make a wrench,
00:30:18right?
00:30:19And I buy that wrench.
00:30:21Right?
00:30:23If I fix a leak
00:30:24or break someone's kneecap
00:30:25with it,
00:30:25it's not up to the wrench, girl.
00:30:27But my algo
00:30:28isn't intended...
00:30:28No, my algo.
00:30:29Mine.
00:30:30You work here.
00:30:30You developed it.
00:30:32Here.
00:30:33It is mine.
00:30:34Or do you want me
00:30:35to slap you with the lawsuit?
00:30:37If you did that,
00:30:38I would quit.
00:30:39Obviously.
00:30:39And then one of your
00:30:40other employees
00:30:41would need to be capable
00:30:42of supervising,
00:30:43which they're...
00:30:45not.
00:30:49Lucky, can you give us
00:30:50the room?
00:30:54I told you to fix
00:30:55the door.
00:30:56Sorry.
00:30:58Um...
00:30:59Mr. Park,
00:31:00there are rules.
00:31:00Rules are designed
00:31:01to keep morons in line.
00:31:02Are you a moron?
00:31:03No, you aren't.
00:31:04And think about it, okay?
00:31:06What if this algo
00:31:07ends up protecting
00:31:08evildoers
00:31:09when it should be
00:31:10exposing them?
00:31:12Hmm?
00:31:13Who's gonna...
00:31:14Who's gonna make that call?
00:31:15You?
00:31:15Every time?
00:31:18Yeah.
00:31:18How about we develop this?
00:31:20Hmm?
00:31:20Right?
00:31:21I'll give you
00:31:21the resources
00:31:22you need.
00:31:24Don't you want to see
00:31:25the rocket you built
00:31:26punch a hole in the sky?
00:31:28Isn't that why
00:31:28you came to the valley?
00:31:30Yeah.
00:31:32Okay, so how godlike
00:31:34is this?
00:31:34Omniscience?
00:31:35Omniscience?
00:31:36Omniscience?
00:31:37Omniscience.
00:31:38What's that?
00:31:38We're about
00:31:39to find out.
00:31:48Here.

00:33:48Soccer tournament.
00:33:49Stalker tournament.
00:33:50That sounds...
00:33:51Soccer.
00:33:52Soccer.
00:33:53I prefer skiing and squash,
00:33:54but 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...
00:34:01get together.

00:34:23of bothersomeness.
00:34:24Thanks, Jamie.

00:52:46You don't talk about blood and guts and stuff like that.
00:52:49Just be yourself.
00:52:51Who else would it be, huh?
00:52:53Duncan, this is the story you need.
00:52:55Yes, right, righto.
00:52:56Once more on to the beach.
00:52:57Bye.
00:52:59Hey, go back to D.C.
00:53:02I need you there.
00:53:03Keep an eye on the jackals.
00:53:06They see safety net and all they think is, where'd I put my scissors?
00:53:09You're staying.
00:53:10Yeah.
00:53:12You hate it here.
00:53:13I hate it everywhere.
00:53:14I complain so much.
00:53:16I've lost track of where things fall on my color wheel of shit.
00:53:20It's all one big brown smear.
00:53:23You'll be pointing D.C., okay?
00:53:26We'll talk every day.
00:53:28Mr. Ruvage.
00:53:29Duncan Park, CEO, hypernosis.
00:53:32Data analytics.
00:53:33I hear you need a data man to help our fighting men in uniform and women.
00:53:39Can I get you a round of drinks?
00:53:41Uh, yeah.
00:53:43Yeah, two of those.
00:53:44Gentlemen, what can I do for...
00:53:49I am sorry, I don't...
00:53:50Is it the Army?
00:53:51Is it the Navy?
00:53:53Marines?
00:53:54Air Force and Coast Guard, too.
00:53:57Cowabunga.
00:53:58Right?
00:53:58I mean, what can hypernosis do to help us win our next war?
00:54:03Uh, well, it's really the last war we're still fighting.
00:54:08Okay.
00:54:09Of course.
00:54:10Of course.
00:54:11Tracking down the terrorists.
00:54:13So you give us your satellite feed, your secret files, and we meld that with our data.
00:54:18We cross it.
00:54:19We blend it.
00:54:20We dig into it.
00:54:21We find the patterns.
00:54:23We find your bad guys, and you just pull the trigger.
00:54:26Done.
00:54:26Win-win.
00:54:27I mean, not for the guys that you're blowing up, but no, they're kind of into it, too.
00:54:31It's their martyrdom, so it's actually a win-win-win.
00:54:36That's sort of the slogan for hypernosis.
00:54:39Ah.
00:54:40Um, it's just, what?
00:54:43We represent America's veterans.
00:54:46We're the VA.
00:54:48Okay.
00:54:58How'd it go?
00:55:01What's the matter?
00:55:02Duncan, slow down.
00:55:06I told you they were from the VA.
00:55:08You said military, okay?
00:55:10I need a sexy new client, not old urine silk vets with their weird hats and broken brains.
00:55:17I thought you got that.
00:55:18Sorry I hooked you up with a bloody government contract.
00:55:20There are more than one kind, okay?
00:55:22More than one kind.
00:55:23There are self-bombers and secret agents, and then there's distributing colostomy bags in tent cities.
00:55:28These men and women, they fought so that, so that we, we here could be free here.
00:55:37I admire them, and I've seen the alternatives.
00:55:40But I chose to make a life here, and in spite of its flaws, I'm grateful.
00:55:44Well, then you should have had Cupertino be their hero, okay?
00:55:47My company is not your ethical laundromat, okay?
00:55:56I have a reputation, okay?
00:55:58I know it's not great what people say about me, but, but this is not, this is not the story
00:56:04I needed, okay?
00:56:06This is just, this is goodwill fuckery, and your buddy, Little Tim.
00:56:10Little Tim, that's exactly what he's gonna say when he leaks the acquisition fail.
00:56:16No.
00:56:17Yes, yes it is.
00:56:18I, I, I see how that guy looks at me.
00:56:21Like, like I'm lying in a ditch with my asshole sticking up inside out, so he can drive up with
00:56:27his bodies and go like,
00:56:29Hey, guys, isn't that Duncan Park in that ditch with his asshole sticking up inside out?
00:56:34Yeah, I know how people are.
00:56:36Because I'm one of them.
00:56:39I'm a person, and I'm like that.
00:56:41So you're walking away?
00:56:43You're goddamn right, and you're gonna tell the VA guys.
00:56:45That is your punishment, okay?
00:56:47Just put them out of their misery.
00:56:49They've probably been to more funerals than birthdays anyway.
00:56:52They can take it.
00:56:53Thanks.
00:57:02Message from Harper.
00:57:09Message.
00:57:10Message from Harper.
00:57:12Message from Harper.
00:57:13Message.
00:57:14Message.
00:57:15Message from Harper.
00:57:20You gotta be kidding me.
00:57:29Before we start, I think it's important to ensure your commitment to the doctor-patient confidentiality thing.
00:57:38You know everything about me, as it should be.
00:57:41And as you know, I have trust issues.
00:57:46Duncan?
00:57:48Where are we going with this?
00:57:50Easier to hear me out.
00:57:51Um.
00:57:54On May 7th, you missed a session due to the flu, but you were actually getting varicose veins removed.
00:58:01Hypognosis.
00:58:01My company.
00:58:02We harvest your data every time you click Agree, and then we put that all into an algorithm that would
00:58:08make the Patriot Act blush.
00:58:10Anything, everywhere, anybody.
00:58:14I know.
00:58:15All that godlike knowledge.
00:58:17And still, Cupertino didn't want us.
00:58:19The thing is, we're not all that unique.
00:58:23The amount of companies with as much or more capability than the NSA would give you nightmares.
00:58:29Here, Russia, China, India, they all have what I have on you.
00:58:34If they only cared to look.
00:58:36Duncan, um, I fear that you, you may be having a psychotic episode.
00:58:43Half of it's public filings and court cases, like how you and your ex-husband both try to dodge custody
00:58:47of the kid.
00:58:49I'm pretty sure a little Orwell would love to hear that.
00:58:55Okay.
00:58:57Okay.
00:58:58You need to leave.
00:59:01Right now.
00:59:02You need to face the discomforts of your truths, Jojo.
00:59:09When I told you my company was in trouble, within 53 seconds of me leaving this office, you sold your
00:59:15shares.
00:59:15And I was like, what?
00:59:17That hurt.
00:59:18No faith in Dunkey?
00:59:20And then I asked myself, I was like, why did she have shares in my company?
00:59:25Sounds like a conflict of interest.
00:59:27No?
00:59:28Oh my goodness, could it be?
00:59:29Yes.
00:59:30Yes, it is.
00:59:32You've been running a magnificent scam on all your high-end, blubbering billionaire clients.
00:59:37You, the trusted repository of the Valley's ultimate insider information.
00:59:43BC agonizing about an upcoming earnings call sell.
00:59:46CEO hopes his wife finally respects him after an upcoming secret merger.
00:59:51Bye.
00:59:52What's the harm?
00:59:53Except it's a felony and you can go to jail for it.
00:59:57Duncan, this is madness.
00:59:59You are confabulating and it's a concern.
01:00:02That superior tone is something I really would like you to work on.
01:00:07Sit.
01:00:09Sit, please.
01:00:12We're both flawed human beings, you and I.
01:00:16With your degree, you could have chosen to help filthy city urchins with their nasty demons,
01:00:21but no, no, no.
01:00:22You planted yourself in the single richest enclave in America to help cure the scourge for performance anxiety.
01:00:30Sudden wealth syndrome?
01:00:31No.
01:00:33You profited.
01:00:35It really is okay, and you'll still profit.
01:00:38Me too.
01:00:41Because you're going to dish all that life-giving dirt to me.
01:00:46Not today, though.
01:00:47No.
01:00:48Today, I feel comfortable.
01:00:51Earthed.
01:00:53There's level ground between us.
01:00:56Feels better, right?
01:00:59So can we please, just, please, talk about my dad?
01:01:20Hello?
01:01:24Hello?
01:01:28Hello?
01:01:29Hello?
01:01:38You are inviting a pushback that is going to feel like the wrath of God.
01:01:44Ow!
01:01:44Dad, you're like having a breakdown.
01:01:49Hypergnomes, assemble!
01:01:51We're gonna make money!
01:01:53Ten million data points on every person from birth.
01:01:56You're not predicting behavior.
01:01:58You're steering it.
01:02:00Your algorithm says all that?
01:02:03Yes!
01:02:03That's the kind of tech that could help people.
01:02:07My patients have dangerous, violent tendencies.
01:02:11I just want to crush them.
01:02:17I know tech changed the world, but so did the bubonic plague.
01:02:22I don't get it.
01:02:22You're a bot.
01:02:23Is it a moron?
01:02:24I mean, is it based on a moron?
01:02:28You do not want this guy running your company.
01:02:30Hey!
01:02:31Whoa!
01:02:34Prepare to have your mind blown.
01:02:40Welcome to the table read of the audacity.
01:02:43First block.
01:02:46It's about to get real.
01:02:58In episode one, the first thing that I wrote down was Duncan's opening line.
01:03:03More than physical pain, I fear humiliation.
01:03:08And 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.
01:03:19The 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 the good therapist.
01:03:32When word gets out, how will that make you feel?
01:03:36And when do you expect that to be?
01:03:39Let's see what happens when you are a powerful person discussing corporate secrets, successes
01:03:45and failures in a therapeutic setting.
01:03:48And what does the therapist do with the information, which is essentially insider information?
01:03:53Really, this is strictly between us.
01:03:58Schmuck.
01:03:59It was fun also doing some therapy scenes with Zach.
01:04:02Would you like to starfish, Karo?
01:04:04Okay.
01:04:05Yeah.
01:04:06Bardolph is, he's an angry man.
01:04:09And he's very resentful and feels like he has never gotten his flowers that he deserves
01:04:15as being one of the pioneers of Silicon Valley.
01:04:18His main problem is greed, like most of the characters.
01:04:22Doesn't it make you feel good to see your legacy in action?
01:04:27Legacy, jeez.
01:04:28Bardolph's Law is something I wrote on in.
01:04:30Napkin, on speed, when we still have fast machines.
01:04:34The doctor-patient confidentiality thing, just how airtight is that?
01:04:37I can't speak with anyone about what you say, not unless you're meaning to do harm to yourself or others.
01:04:43I grew up in a house with a psychiatrist and a therapist with their offices in the house.
01:04:50And 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, but I
01:04:57could listen to them.
01:04:58It's that sort of funny faith that this room's a safe space.
01:05:03Why? What's so safe about it?
01:05:05When I told you my company was in trouble within 53 seconds of me leaving this office, you sold your
01:05:11shares.
01:05:11These two seemingly are so different, but then they actually have a lot in common.
01:05:17She is shown to be somebody with ethical lapses who cuts corners herself.
01:05:23It really is okay, and you'll still profit.
01:05:25Me too.
01:05:26Because you're going to dish all that life-giving dirt to me.
01:05:30End of episode.
01:05:34End of episode.
01:05:57End of episode.
