Transcript
00:00:12I'm sorry for what?
00:00:14You're like having a breakdown.
00:00:15You stole my tungsten cube.
00:00:17Hey Duncan, infinite growth isn't for everyone.
00:00:20There is no other tech like Xander.
00:00:21AGI is the holy grail and I'm Sir fucking Galahad.
00:00:24My whole career rides on this product.
00:00:27And in two days, I'm the face of it.
00:00:29The nutritionist was giving you steroids.
00:00:32Give me the tincture.
00:00:33Not happening.
00:00:34Why does your pillow smell like a new scum?
00:00:36You betrayed me.
00:00:37I want you to leave.
00:00:38And it's my house.
00:00:50You know, Carl's over the moon that you're coming out to join us today.
00:00:55Uh-huh.
00:00:56Yeah, yeah.
00:00:58I think you'll get a kick out of it.
00:01:13Well met, sir.
00:01:14Well met.
00:01:15I bet you weren't expecting this.
00:01:19I was not.
00:01:20Where's your piece?
00:01:21McGuire, get him a smelly.
00:01:24There you go.
00:01:27Pretty swell, right?
00:01:29We're going to really raise some cane this time.
00:01:31I have a new pyro guy.
00:01:32He's got his whole kit and caboodle, so it's going to be really good.
00:01:35Uh-huh.
00:01:36Maybe I should watch over there by the La Place du Village.
00:01:41No, no, no.
00:01:41We've got it all mapped out.
00:01:42We're going to take a crack at Meuse Argonne.
00:01:4547 days of hell-fired heart attack.
00:01:47Uh-huh.
00:01:47Really leveled up this time, knowing that a bona fide vet would be with us today.
00:01:51Carl.
00:01:53I'm...
00:01:54What do you want me to do?
00:01:57No!
00:01:57No!
00:01:58No!
00:01:59No!
00:02:00No!
00:02:03No!
00:02:04No!
00:02:05No!
00:02:06No!
00:02:07No!
00:02:08No!
00:02:08No!
00:02:10No!
00:02:12No!
00:02:16No!
00:02:16No!
00:02:17No!
00:02:17No!
00:02:17No!
00:02:23No!
00:02:25No!
00:02:30Jesus!
00:02:35What the hell?
00:02:38I got here.
00:02:42No!
00:02:43No!
00:03:03Bro, you're supposed to lie down.
00:03:07Yeah, you're dead.
00:03:19Okay, what are we drinking?
00:03:23I like to imagine that we find a bottle of cognac in a blown-up cafe,
00:03:27and we can't believe our luck because the bottle's impossibly intact.
00:03:33People say that money can't buy you perspective.
00:03:36I just bought the Western Front in 4D, and it was far from quiet.
00:03:41But if that isn't what war felt like, then I don't want to know.
00:03:47To the ones who gave it all, may we never forget and never let them down.
00:03:59I want to show you something.
00:04:06What do we have behind here?
00:04:19The Battle of Austerlitz, Maginport.
00:04:24Those gas masks are from the Somme.
00:04:30And Teetham.
00:04:34What about this one?
00:04:36Does this look familiar?
00:04:39This is Medina Ridge, my friend.
00:04:43Your finest hour.
00:04:50And if you look over here, closely, at this band of brothers,
00:04:54indeed you will see tank platoon leader,
00:04:57second lieutenant Tom Ruffage,
00:05:00on his M1 Abrams.
00:05:03I had my miniature guy make sure that he
00:05:05tried to capture the steely resolve
00:05:07that only a man born to kill like you...
00:05:10Seriously, what is wrong with you?
00:05:13What?
00:05:15You go play dress-up,
00:05:16and then you come admire your toy soldiers?
00:05:19You got
00:05:20no fucking idea at all
00:05:22what war is.
00:05:23I mean, this is obscene, Carl.
00:05:26It's fucking obscene!
00:05:30Yeah.
00:05:32I wasn't a soldier.
00:05:34Yes.
00:05:36But I know what
00:05:38valor looks like, sir.
00:05:41And it comes in many different shapes.
00:05:45And in my business dealings,
00:05:47sometimes in deal-making,
00:05:48the knives come out.
00:05:50Oh, stop!
00:05:50And it's been talking!
00:05:52God!
00:05:54You're insulting people you don't even know exist!
00:06:00Oh, the pride of the American bureaucrat.
00:06:04And pride goeth before the fall.
00:06:06And while you were pushing for regulations
00:06:09for the Mother May I State,
00:06:11I was building empires.
00:06:16So tell me,
00:06:17who is wasting their time again?
00:06:18You!
00:06:20You!
00:06:25I'm sorry.
00:06:27Carl.
00:06:30Maybe your heart is in the right place.
00:06:34But...
00:06:39I'm sorry.
00:06:40I'm sorry.
00:06:42I'm sorry.
00:06:43I'm sorry.
00:06:50I'm sorry.
00:07:08No, I never told him.
00:07:11I don't want to characterize his feelings towards me,
00:07:14but perhaps he felt I deceived him.
00:07:17Anyway...
00:07:18I can assure you,
00:07:19I will not be seeing him anymore.
00:07:23He's going to try to undermine me.
00:07:26He's probably more determined now than ever.
00:07:29Tonight is the Watch Code Forum.
00:07:31It's a make-or-break night for me, Joanne,
00:07:34and he's gonna be there, of course.
00:07:36And Xander, is it?
00:07:37He's not misbehaving anymore?
00:07:39No, it's good.
00:07:40Yeah, really, really good.
00:07:42I'm confident Xander's gonna leave people absolutely floored.
00:07:45I think we're about to make a few spreadsheets very, very happy.
00:07:48Uh-huh.
00:07:49Including mine.
00:07:50Oh, well, that's...
00:07:51That's wonderful.
00:07:56Oh, I am so, so sorry about this.
00:07:59But, you know, it's...
00:08:00It's not uncommon for people
00:08:02who know the same sets of people
00:08:04to, you know, wind up at the same therapist's door.
00:08:07Right, I know.
00:08:08Same therapist, same parties,
00:08:10same conferences.
00:08:12Mm-hmm, yeah.

00:08:16It's just downstairs from Watch Code.
00:08:18I will be there.
00:08:19It's a small town, after all.
00:08:23Yes, well, perhaps I'll see you there.
00:08:27Right, well, I'll be on the lookout then.
00:09:05Did you see it?
00:09:07Did you see the trophy case?

00:18:46And even if there is
00:18:47This is not the place to do it

00:18:52Sorry, did I hear you talking about admission rates?
00:18:55Oh my god, it is so brutal, right?

00:21:11and you'll get a piece of this too i hope uh piece of i just want you to know that
00:21:17i
00:21:18i did what i said i played a part it's non-exclusive and it won't affect the work that you're
00:21:23doing
00:21:23with the vets okay okay sir what are we talking about
00:21:39i'm not your engineer you understand i i am the intellectual property carl
00:21:45uh hey i uh sent that uniform in to be cleaned i'll get it back to you okay
00:21:53okay so uh someone wanna tell me what's going on here nishka
00:21:57okay um we're not gonna be giving our presentation anymore
00:22:02the presentation that we came here to give
00:22:04right okay yeah uh why is that
00:22:08uh because what we needed to happen already happened he licensed zander
00:22:14what what is that i don't understand well tom the tech does also have to be profitable as we all
00:22:19agreed oh carl carl carl carl what did you do what did you do what i did lieutenant is i
00:22:25took
00:22:25martin's work and i put it where it has the most value and where it will do the most good
00:22:29for the
00:22:30country mailton is licensing alexander for military practice oh come on now that's a joke right
00:22:35zander is going to sit in the cockpit he is going to help the airmen with the
00:22:40killing deadly burden with the killing with the deadly burden of murdering decision to fire
00:22:44because the truth is he'd never quite know when a soldier might snap right
00:22:53and general vorhees is vorhees is malaton's man at the dod and he has come up with the clever idea
00:23:00of rebranding zander as zandar oh as zandar yeah zandar which i think has a ring to it right think
00:23:07about this tom when you were attacking those fleeing unarmed iraqi soldiers zandar could have
00:23:13spared you your moral injury carl you cannot license my work without my consent uh martin
00:23:18read your contracts how about my lawyers read it to you in court sue me please sue me you had
00:23:23no
00:23:23right i have none every right i always have every right can we still use zander for the vets is
00:23:29that
00:23:29lawyers are going to sort it out your lawyer should have read it out loud to you i don't need
00:23:33to because
00:23:33i can read then you would know that a four-year 1.27 billion non-exclusive would make you 762
00:23:40million
00:23:40dollars jesus what i can make 10 20 times that if i sold them out right that's that's a provable
00:23:47thing can we discuss we just discuss a little you know i never needed you to go out hey what
00:23:51can we
00:23:52for me don't give their horse you're calling me a whore i called you a friend right there you called
00:23:56me a pimp hey hey damn it come on answer the question huh can hypernosis still use zander for
00:24:04the vets don't forget i still have my developmental rights i will take your check i will shut zander
00:24:09down i will show myself out permanently oh so you will take the money oh that was fast that was
00:24:14fast and you touch my land yard one more time and i will fucking knock you off this railing you
00:24:18understand me i have to be clear car i'll be doing whatever's in martin's best interest here
00:24:23including resigning i gotta tell you i smell a terrible freedom but you do you lady
00:24:38tom tom tom tom tom tom okay that was a toughie believe me i've had my hopes dash more times
00:24:46than i
00:24:47can count but we dust ourselves off you just made a billion dollars well not quite my husband did
00:24:54i i also just lost my job on principle
00:25:01okay look this is all so new but um what would you think if martin and i were to start
00:25:07a foundation
00:25:08for the veterans we could put in say five million just to get it started it's so plainly the right
00:25:15thing to do and tom you could lead it hmm so uh 16 million vets five million bucks that's uh
00:25:2530 cents
00:25:25per vet um not quite enough to get them each a pack of gum but if they pool their resources
00:25:32they could maybe get a stick each okay tom what am i doing
00:25:40tom
00:25:43it's there the whole time
00:26:00tom don't worry i come in peace i come in peace just let me guess let me guess

00:29:12Thank you, Mary.
00:29:13Congratulations.
00:29:16Hey.
00:29:18Jameson should be up there.
00:29:20Not the time.
00:29:22Regardless of whatever you may think of me personally, Beatrice, don't punish my daughter.
00:29:26I assure you, she is not dangerous.
00:29:29She's a genuinely midperson.
00:29:32You told me she was stealing things and displaying them in the trophy case.
00:29:35Duncan said that.
00:29:36And he's wrong.
00:29:37Often.
00:29:38Lily.
00:29:39Mm?
00:29:40Jameson may have done something inexcusably stupid.
00:29:43And if so, my hands are tied.
00:29:45Okay, then you need to know.
00:29:46Under this fabulous dress, I'm wearing a suicide vest.
00:29:49Oh, are you upset?
00:29:50Well, I'm sure you have pills to help with that.
00:29:53It doesn't change how on Monday, if the police can't place evidence to exonerate Jameson,
00:29:58I will have to suspend her.
00:30:00I will make it to Monday, Beatrice.
00:30:02None of us will.
00:30:03Oh, my God.
00:30:04Lily, please.
00:30:06Other things other than you need attention right now.
00:30:09Pippa Ting.
00:30:10Oh, my God.
00:30:11Pippa Ting.
00:30:13Pippa Ting.
00:30:14Pippa Pippa Ting Ting.
00:30:16I won't give this your attention.
00:30:17I swear to you, I will go on that stage in front of everyone who matters and declare
00:30:21I hired the wrong black woman because I couldn't tell the difference.
00:30:26And she, meaning you, went along with it.
00:30:32You destroy my daughter's future.
00:30:34I will end us all.
00:30:36My God.
00:30:37It's going to be the gala to end all galas.
00:30:40Possibly the end of Los Altos.
00:30:42Probably.
00:30:43Definitely.
00:30:44And you know what?
00:30:46I'm going to enjoy it.
00:30:47Oh, hey.
00:30:48You want to hold hands?
00:30:49Go out there together?
00:30:50No?
00:30:51Okay.
00:30:52Well, you do want to be in the blast radius if you can.
00:30:54Not on the run like an escaped fugitive.
00:30:57Oh, just stop, Lily.
00:30:59I'm about to be destroyed publicly all without your help.
00:31:03Okay?
00:31:04Huh?
00:31:05Pippa is backing out of the stadium.
00:31:09Yeah.
00:31:10No.
00:31:10She said, I, um, I booked us in the shadow of a tacky-ass tech bro trade show.
00:31:16Strongly suggested I wasn't born with the right instincts to plan an event of this magnitude.
00:31:24She also said you hiring me was a quixotic aspiration.
00:31:30She said that.
00:31:31And she called me a leftover legacy of Lily.
00:31:44So, the rich bitch in your corner never liked you.
00:31:51And Beatrice, you can't afford not to have a rich bitch in your corner.
00:32:04Um, do you remember, did you meet my friend Ike?
00:32:08Um, yeah.
00:32:09I met Ike at, uh, that conference on forensic psychology and academics and, well, I recently
00:32:16talked to him because, you know, Ike does some work with, um, law enforcement.
00:32:20And, um, well, you know, I wanted to get his advice about you and, you know, theoretically
00:32:26about next best steps were you being blackmailed by a client.
00:32:31Why?
00:32:33Well.
00:32:33What?
00:32:34Why would you do this?
00:32:35Because I was concerned.
00:32:36Because I am still very, very concerned.
00:32:39You, what?
00:32:41Law enforcement.
00:32:42Yes.
00:32:46Honey.
00:32:47I...
00:33:08Who is this person that you talk to?
00:33:10Ike.
00:33:11He's a psychiatrist.
00:33:13Uh, I always forget his last name.
00:33:15It doesn't matter, sometimes he consults and sometimes he testifies, but it's Ike.
00:33:19He's a friend of mine.
00:33:20Oh, oh, he's such a good friend, but you can't remember his last name.
00:33:23We talk to each other about cases sometimes.
00:33:25He's very discreet.
00:33:26Yeah, and you think that he's going to be loyal to you or to his pals in blue?
00:33:29Professional call.
00:33:30Why would loyalty have to...
00:33:32Okay, sweetie, have you done something?
00:33:34Or, I mean...
00:33:41You fucked it!
00:33:42You fucked it, Gary!
00:33:44What did you tell him?
00:33:46What's happening?
00:33:46What's happening right now, Joanne?
00:33:48What did you do?
00:33:49I...
00:33:49What did you...
00:33:50Okay, Joanne, listen to me.
00:33:51Look, look, look, okay.
00:33:53Was there a professional lapse?
00:33:56Was it Duncan Park?
00:33:59Okay, great.
00:34:00Look, sweetie, just tell me what it's all about.
00:34:03What is he having you do, and what does he have on you?
00:34:07Nothing.
00:34:08Nothing.
00:34:10Barely a thing.
00:34:11Look, I could...
00:34:12I could explain it all.
00:34:15But, Gary, if you could just believe me, it would make things a lot easier.
00:34:22Okay.
00:34:23Okay.
00:34:23Look, I'm not the enemy here.
00:34:25I'm with you, okay?
00:34:26Okay, and you will tell me when you're ready to tell me.
00:34:33I have been buried.
00:34:36Oh.
00:34:37I'm sorry.
00:34:39I'm here.
00:34:41I hate him.
00:34:43I hate him so much.
00:34:46There were no words how much I hate him.
00:34:52Okay.
00:34:53He...
00:34:53He's gonna be interviewed.
00:34:55Oh.
00:34:56In just a few minutes.
00:34:57Mm-hmm.
00:34:58Upstairs.
00:34:58And I...
00:34:59I need to go see him be humiliated.
00:35:01Okay.
00:35:02I'm sorry.
00:35:02No, honey.
00:35:03You know, listen, listen.
00:35:05You know, your countertransference is...
00:35:06It's really off the map here, so maybe don't go.
00:35:10I have to.
00:35:12Think of it as reconnaissance.
00:35:22He was the co-founder of Fafa and then Hypernosis, and now he has a new company.
00:35:32Privacy is not a thing anymore, or pinata.
00:35:36Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage, Duncan Park.
00:35:54Many would accuse you of recklessly toying with millions of people's private data, offering
00:36:02to swing the door open to creeps and stalkers for a monthly subscription fee.
00:36:11Do you want to talk about reckless?
00:36:14Silicon Valley uses people's private data the way the computers in the Matrix use humans
00:36:19as batteries, all right?
00:36:21I mean, if Congress passed a law barring companies from collecting millions of data points on
00:36:28people's private lives, I mean, privacy was a right and not a polite suggestion.
00:36:35I'm sorry.
00:36:35This entire industry would fall on its collective dick.
00:36:38But until that point, I'm going to exploit the situation and make money.
00:36:43Yeah.
00:36:44Yeah.
00:36:44Oh, no, no, no.
00:36:46Listen.
00:36:46Listen.
00:36:47No.
00:36:48Hey, no.
00:36:48Your, your outrage is fake.
00:36:52You just don't like seeing your reflection in my business model.
00:36:55The data that pinata uses, which launches in the new year, by the way, the data is out
00:37:00there.
00:37:01It is vulnerable and not because of me.
00:37:04No, the people in this room and the companies they represent have taken it and sold it and
00:37:10are doing it a billion times per second as we speak.
00:37:14Okay?
00:37:14I'm just the conduit.
00:37:15I'm, I'm donkey leaks.
00:37:22Well, there are also rumors that you have acquired the genetic data of millions of Mixi customers.
00:37:31Is that true?
00:37:32And will you likewise make the DNA of these people publicly accessible?
00:37:36Oh, excuse me, to your platinum subscribers?
00:37:41Guilty.
00:37:42It is true.
00:37:44Oh.
00:37:44Well, it's one thing to peddle individuals' predilections.
00:37:49But it is another more nefarious thing to traffic in what runs through our veins.
00:37:56Was there a question there, Nana?
00:37:58No, I'm sorry.
00:37:59I'm sorry.
00:38:00I'm just trying to understand what it is that you plan to do with this very private and sensitive
00:38:06information.
00:38:09People, um, people in the audience dating men, wouldn't you like to know if that guy's
00:38:16going to go bald or if he's going to have a coronary or, or having kids with this guy?
00:38:21What, what does that mean?
00:38:22I mean, probability for things like intelligence, physical stamina, drug addiction.
00:38:28What if there, there's schizophrenia in the family?
00:38:31How about if you're hiring this guy, or insuring this guy, or admitting him to your college?
00:38:38How about admitting him to your country?
00:38:46Well, now that sounds like, like you're describing eugenics or some fascistic plan.
00:38:53Okay, now this, this is going to be harder for you to boo at.
00:38:57With Pinata, you're able to target people prone to gaining weight.
00:39:02Alcoholism, bad breath.
00:39:03You already do it.
00:39:04I mean, you track women and their menstrual cycles.
00:39:07You know when to sell them stilettos and when to sell them sweatpants.
00:39:10This is just the natural progression of what happens when capital rewards immersive data.
00:39:17All right.
00:39:18You make some points, Mr. Park.
00:39:20Some?
00:39:21Some points.
00:39:22But sophistry, dressed as brutal honesty, is the kind of rhetoric that paves the way for
00:39:29nihilism in business.
00:39:30If not, politics.
00:39:31That's entertainment, Nana.
00:39:33Hi.
00:39:34Yes.
00:39:35Yes, it is.
00:39:53And to speak to that, you did promise us a demonstration of Pinata in action.
00:39:58Yes, I did.
00:39:58I did.
00:39:59And for that, I would like to bring out my partner at Pinata, Harper.
00:40:05Harper, come on out.
00:40:06Come on out.
00:40:07Yes, Harper.
00:40:09Also, I would like to take a moment to praise the engineers who are the real geniuses among
00:40:14us, right?
00:40:15Like Harper, like my old partner, Hamish.
00:40:17We never give them enough credit, do we?
00:40:19Well, let's hear it for them.
00:40:24So, yes.
00:40:25Nana did spill the beans.
00:40:27I did acquire Mixi, and I want to show you how it is the tiger in our Pinata tank.
00:40:36In combination, we will be able to give our subscribers a full picture.
00:40:41So, at this point, I'm going to, I want the audience to shout out someone that you want
00:40:45to get to know better.
00:40:46Let's say the Pope, their kids tutor with weird tattoos.
00:40:50I don't know.
00:40:50Someone in the room want to volunteer?
00:40:52You want to volunteer?
00:40:53How about Duncan Park?
00:40:55Yep.
00:40:58Very funny.
00:41:00Yes, Carl.
00:41:01Carl Bardoff.
00:41:02Everyone.
00:41:03Wow.
00:41:08Dinosaurs still do exist, right?
00:41:11But seriously, let's shout out a name.
00:41:14Duncan Park!
00:41:16Duncan Park.
00:41:18Duncan Park.
00:41:20Duncan Park.
00:41:21Duncan Park.
00:41:23Duncan Park.
00:41:24Duncan Park.
00:41:25Duncan Park.
00:41:27Duncan Park.
00:41:28Duncan Park.
00:41:30Duncan Park.
00:41:30Duncan Park.
00:41:31Duncan Park.
00:41:32I do have to admit, I've always wanted to hear you people chanting my name, but not
00:41:37quite like this.
00:41:40Hey, listen.
00:41:41We're not going to do my data.
00:41:42Absolutely not.
00:41:43But we'll do the DNA part, okay?
00:41:44Right?
00:41:45Yeah?
00:41:45Follow my name.
00:41:46Great.
00:41:47Okay.
00:41:47Okay.
00:41:47The mob has spoken.
00:41:49Duncan will do me.
00:41:50Unfortunately, I wasn't foolish enough to give my DNA away, but the interconnectivity
00:41:55of our very genetic code might lead us to some of my idiot cousins, right?
00:42:01Harper!
00:42:02How about you show me Derek Park of Toledo, Ohio?
00:42:06Come on down!
00:42:08There he is.
00:42:09Look at him.
00:42:10Okay, see, with Pinata, we are able to blend all our data with everything Mixie knows about
00:42:16your DNA, but never, never used to show you.
00:42:20Harper, hit that.
00:42:22Hit that deep dive.
00:42:25Okay, here we go.
00:42:26Derek.
00:42:27Derek is in debt.
00:42:28Oh my gosh.
00:42:29He is colorblind.
00:42:30He has bacne.
00:42:31He has bacne.
00:42:32Three DUIs and ladies.
00:42:34He is single and looking for love, but mostly on gamblesluts.com.
00:42:39And that's just the tip of the iceberg for what we got on Derek.
00:42:44Harper, let's see some of Derek's closest relatives.
00:42:49To the Valley of Hearts to Light.
00:42:51That's me right there, obviously.
00:42:53You can see the resemblance.
00:42:54But as you notice, there is no deep dive option because I'm a Platinum member and you
00:42:59could be too.
00:43:01You can.
00:43:02Let's hit the family tree, Harper.
00:43:04Here we go.
00:43:05Oh, oh, there's my sweet girl right there.
00:43:08And then my better half, Lily.
00:43:10No deep dive there, Harper.
00:43:12Don't want to show you that.
00:43:13We just want to say hi.
00:43:13Let's click on Jameson's family tree, my wife's site.
00:43:17She has some real mutants.
00:43:19So this is going to be fun.
00:43:22As you see, you can now click through the list of things.
00:43:26There's cousin.
00:43:27Let's Harper.
00:43:28Let's click grandparents.
00:43:30Let's see if they have a favorite porn site.
00:43:33Uh-oh, where to now?
00:43:35Where in the world are we going?
00:43:37We are going to Wichita, Kansas.
00:43:40Who's in Wichita?
00:43:56Kill it, Harper.
00:43:57Kill it.
00:43:57Um, sorry.
00:43:59Uh, sorry.
00:44:00So sorry.
00:44:01This, as you know, still, we might have some bugs to squash.
00:44:06But fortunately, I know this crowd understands beta.
00:44:09But still, uh, how embarrassing.
00:44:12But I think you're able to see the power that we have here.
00:44:19So, um, we launch in the new year.
00:44:21And if you like what you heard and saw today, please join our Panada family.
00:44:26Go to privacyisnotathinganymore.com and subscribe.
00:44:32His thank you, this was wonderful.
00:44:41Great, ladies and gentlemen.
00:44:58Wasn't our wonderful orchestra wonderful?
00:45:07Now, we have been listening to what you, the parents, have been asking of us.
00:45:12And this year marks Los Altos' moment in becoming the athletic powerhouse to the same degree we're already an academic
00:45:21powerhouse.
00:45:23I fixed it. I fixed it for Jamie.
00:45:35What? Did not go well?
00:45:37Is it true?
00:45:42Is it true? What are you talking about?
00:45:44It's true, Lily.
00:45:45Duncan, I'm about to go on stage.
00:45:51You, you and Hamish.
00:45:58Okay.
00:46:01Is Jameson mine?
00:46:05May I ask you a question?
00:46:06I am so...
00:46:08Please.
00:46:09...to call in my friend.
00:46:10Duncan.
00:46:11...an act of generosity...
00:46:12Please.
00:46:13No, please.
00:46:14Please.
00:46:16Please.
00:46:17...the philanthropist behind the entirety of our new stadium, Lily Park Hofstetter!
00:46:32Come on!
00:46:34Come on!
00:46:37Woo!
00:46:38Woo!
00:46:45Woo!
00:46:46Woo!
00:46:48Woo!
00:46:49Woo!
00:46:49Woo!
00:46:50Woo!
00:46:50Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:46:59Duncan Park, just the man I was looking for.
00:47:05What do you want for it?
00:47:08For Panada.
00:47:18Who would you want for a choir pin on it?
00:47:21If the terms are right.
00:47:26Hey, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:47:28I just spoke with Big Tim, and he's motivated, okay?
00:47:32How much would you say it's worth?
00:47:33A billion.
00:47:34A billion?
00:47:34Come on, that's aggressive for an opening you haven't even launched yet.
00:47:37Why don't you just come in tomorrow morning?
00:47:39$350 million.
00:47:40That's how much Cupertino was going to pay for hypernosis until you killed it.
00:47:44So that's how much it's worth.
00:47:46$350 million.
00:47:48Wait, wait.
00:47:51I can't make that deal myself, but after that speech,
00:47:56everyone in there is just a little bit afraid of you now, okay?
00:47:58So you've got leverage.
00:48:00Then why am I talking to you?
00:48:03$350.
00:48:04Talk to your boss.
00:48:14I can't even cover it up one more.
00:48:16Yeah, I can't even cover it up one.
00:48:17And then.
00:48:21To cover up me.
00:48:22Yeah, yeah.
00:48:23Yes, go first.
00:48:40I'm sorry.
00:48:44Really, I'm really sorry.
00:49:24Really, I'm really sorry.
00:49:30Sweetie, it's mom leaving you a message.
00:49:32Um, I wanted you to know I fixed it, okay?
00:49:38So, I love you.
00:49:41And I'll see you tonight.
00:49:44I love you.
00:50:01I love you.
00:50:03I love you.
00:50:10I love you.
00:50:25I love you.
00:50:31I love you.
00:50:38I love you.
00:50:59Jamie?
00:51:14I love you.
00:51:31What is that?
00:51:36What is that?
00:51:51I love you.
00:51:52I love you.
00:51:55I love you.
00:52:20I love you.
00:52:26I love you.
00:52:44I love you.
00:52:48I love you.
00:52:51I love you.
00:53:00I love you.
00:53:03I love you.
00:53:04I love you.
00:53:07I love you.
00:53:09I love you.
00:53:16I love you.
00:54:44Hey, um, I made Orson some lunch, so I'm just going to take him to school.
00:54:49All right. Good?
00:54:51Yeah. It's great. Thank you.
00:54:54Mm-hmm. And, um, we still need to talk. When you're ready.
00:54:59Yeah, we will.
00:55:01Mm-hmm.
00:55:34Hey, what do we say about listening to our bodies?
00:55:38If you've got to go, go ahead.
00:55:39We're in no rush, right?
00:55:41I took Mom's gun.
00:55:44What?
00:55:45What do you mean?
00:55:47I took Mom's gun.
00:55:47What do you mean you took Mom's gun?
00:55:49I took...
00:55:50I'm sorry.
00:55:51Orson, it's not a toy.
00:55:52That's an instrument of death.
00:55:53I know.
00:55:53I know.
00:55:54I'm sorry.
00:55:55Don't be sorry.
00:55:56I don't want to hear that you're sorry.
00:55:58Okay.
00:55:58Just, Orson, listen to me.
00:56:00Put it back.
00:56:01Just put it back.
00:56:03I don't have it.
00:56:04Gun!
00:56:04No, I'm sorry.
00:56:06I'm so sorry.
00:56:06It's worth it.
00:56:07I was on the drugs.
00:56:08I don't care.
00:56:09Don't do this.
00:56:09I mean, we're so right.
00:56:10It's so poison.
00:56:10I don't want to hear about the drugs.
00:56:12I don't want to hear about the teacher.
00:56:13Okay, I'm sorry.
00:56:13This is the nightmare.
00:56:15It's registered under my name.
00:56:17It's okay.
00:56:17It's okay.
00:56:18I know where it is.
00:56:19But...
00:56:20But what?
00:56:22I might need you to help me get it back.
00:56:28I don't want to hear it.
00:56:28Oh, I don't want to learn to get it back.
00:56:29Oh, man.
00:56:29Oh, man.
00:56:33You can do aå…’.
00:56:37And I'm sorry.
00:56:45I'm sorry.
00:56:47I didn't want to be the nun.
00:56:49I don't want to be ill.
00:56:49I don't want to be ill.
00:56:56Can I have a cup of coffee?
00:57:15Dying breed is one soul closer to extinction.
00:57:18That's for sure.
00:57:20Without men like him, guys like him, they were the glue, brother.
00:57:28Messy and inefficient, but for a long while there,
00:57:33they kept everything from coming apart, men like that.
00:57:41Tom knew the future was no place for him.
00:57:50Nothing sticks for you, does it?
00:57:52You don't mind the dumpster fire, not if it's in the rear view.
00:57:55You just keep moving headlong, right?
00:57:58You just...
00:57:58The past has no value for me.
00:58:01Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Gabe going to give money
00:58:05to Francis and James of Wichita, Kansas,
00:58:08your wife's daughter's grandparents?
00:58:12Oof, good luck outrunning that.
00:58:19Okay.
00:58:21Okey-dokey.
00:58:23Okay, look, I will tell you what happened last night.
00:58:29Cupertino offered me $350 million for a pinata.
00:58:35Okay, so they're scared.
00:58:36They're terrified.
00:58:39So this thing was a hostage play?
00:58:41Pay me or the whole industry gets it?
00:58:44Is that what this is?
00:58:45No.
00:58:46All I knew was if I could take the threats,
00:58:49the hate, the ridicule,
00:58:51and just survive and never go away,
00:58:54they would have no choice but to pay me.
00:58:57Well, congratulations then.
00:59:02I didn't say yes to it yet.
00:59:04I'll tell you the offer I would take.
00:59:07Hibernosis acquires pinata.
00:59:10Apply the power of our 360-degree profile engine
00:59:14to the data of 16 million vets,
00:59:17and of course the DNA profile to millions and millions more.
00:59:21I'm not paying $351 million.
00:59:23It's yours for a dollar.
00:59:25I'm sorry, ours.
00:59:28Because then I would get my hat back.
00:59:30Founder class shares and options.
00:59:32We do a sidecar deal for Mixi,
00:59:35and I am CEO again.
00:59:38And we do what we planned.
00:59:40And you and I set off for Domination Station.
00:59:43We break everything worth breaking.
00:59:46Give Big Tim ass hives
00:59:48in the shape of our grinning faces.
00:59:57Not now, not today.
01:00:07I have to make a move on this.
01:00:11They're trying to save their way of life by paying me off.
01:00:14If I don't take it,
01:00:16next step, they end me.
01:00:19Unless I align with someone with the resources
01:00:22and the balls to fight,
01:00:24and then we make the rules.
01:00:28One dollar.
01:00:45Got my coffee?
01:00:47Got your coffee?
01:00:49Got your coffee.
01:00:57We could have set the world on fire.
01:01:00Got my coffee.
01:01:01No, not today.
01:01:02You too.
01:01:11No.
01:01:16Son.
01:01:16You too.
01:01:18That's right.
01:01:18Oh, man.
01:01:24Hang on.
01:01:24And you too.
01:01:26Nope.
01:01:27OK.
01:01:28części of my CPU.
01:01:47Hello?
01:01:48Dr. Felder?
01:01:49Joanne Felder?
01:01:50Yes?
01:01:51This is Special Agent Randy Fleming with the FBI.
01:01:54Do you have a moment to talk?
01:02:11I want the audience to shout out someone that you want to get to know better.
01:02:14Someone in the room?
01:02:15How about Duncan Park?
01:02:16Duncan Park!
01:02:17Duncan Park!
01:02:19Duncan Park!
01:02:20Duncan!
01:02:21Duncan's always talking about, throughout the season, some version of falling on your own dick.
01:02:25In Episode 8, that's what he does.
01:02:30Duncan Park!
01:02:31Harper, let's click grandparents.
01:02:33Where in the world are we going?
01:02:35We are going to Wichita, Kansas!
01:02:38Who's in Wichita?
01:02:42Tech being married to secrets and privacy.
01:02:47I really wanted to show what that pitfall might look like and see Duncan fall into it.
01:02:57What?
01:02:58You and Hamish.
01:03:00Jameson is not his daughter, biologically.
01:03:04And it's clear that Lily's been waiting for this moment and has been dreading that moment.
01:03:11May I ask you a question?
01:03:12I am so pleased.
01:03:13Please.
01:03:15Just being there on the day, oh God, the way that Lucy Punch plays it, was really something
01:03:22to say.
01:03:23Lily Park Hofstetter!
01:03:30Sweetie, just tell me what it's all about.
01:03:32Gary, if you could just believe me, it would make things a lot easier.
01:03:39Okay.
01:03:39I think that Joanne is capable of telling a very carefully crafted narrative for Gary's
01:03:45consumption.
01:03:46We still need to talk.
01:03:48When you're ready.
01:03:49Yeah, we will.
01:03:51Gary leaves the season not knowing that the FBI called Joanne, but you certainly see it
01:03:55on Sarah Goldberg's face when that call comes in.
01:03:59Do you have a moment to talk?
01:04:01Um...
01:04:02This is going to be a problem for her.
01:04:04We're not going to be giving our presentation anymore.
01:04:07Okay, yeah, uh, why is that?
01:04:10Uh, because what we needed to happen already happened.
01:04:13Martin finds out that Xander's been licensed by Bardolph.
01:04:16He's got two mortal enemies now, because one of them just fucked him over and the other
01:04:21one was fucking his wife.
01:04:22Did the data ingestion happen?
01:04:24All the vets' personnel files?
01:04:26Mm-hmm.
01:04:27Oh, okay.
01:04:28Okay, and now all of them belong to him.
01:04:31In the course of this story, where we're always hinting at the dangers of the tech world
01:04:36of what human fallibility and blindness can lead to, there had to be a cost.
01:04:42He's going to do what I was going to do.
01:04:44Just rent it out to pharma, lobbyist, insurance, and you and that civil servant faith of yours
01:04:51made it all possible.
01:04:53I suppose if there's ever a moment in the course of this whole season where I want people to
01:04:58really think about something, an issue, if you treat these guys like garbage, who's going
01:05:04to want that job that can do that job well with the right intentions?
01:05:08And it's, I think, a fundamentally existential question that our society really needs to be
01:05:15asking itself.
01:05:15What do we do without guys like that?
01:05:17And you can't ask that question without taking him away.
01:05:43As hard as it was to do, I had to take him away so that you understood the value of
01:05:49him.
01:05:49Guys like him, they were the glue, brother.
01:05:54Tom knew the future was no place for him.
01:05:57Going forward, even the hopeful stories are going to be filled with challenges.
01:06:03Got my coffee?
01:06:04Got your coffee.
01:06:06When Duncan leaves Bardolph and says, we could have set the world on fire, and then Bardolph
01:06:11gets a dollar, the price that Duncan offered him for Panada and all of the data from Mixi,
01:06:16I think that we should feel like they might just go do that.
01:06:20Over the place.
01:06:20Over the place.
01:06:43OK.
