00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:09,041
RICHARD: This is a good buyout.
2
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,248
It's way better than what Gavin offered before.
3
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,449
And our packages include
nice salaries, cash earn-outs,
4
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,729
stock in Hooli, which vests after
only four years of working there.
5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,848
I mean, this seems
like a pretty good deal, right?
6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,322
Hooli?
You really think we'd go work for Hooli?
7
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,090
What the fuck is wrong with you, Richard?
8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:26,810
What other options do we have?
9
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,047
We need serious funding
to go up against Nucleus,
10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,531
and we don't have that.
11
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,126
- So, listen...
- I will listen
12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,328
to the sound of you chortling on my balls.
13
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,563
- Okay.
- Richard, I'm an independent businessman.
14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,008
Emphasis on "independent" and "business."
15
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,491
And "man," come to think of it.
16
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:45,971
Count me out.
17
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,202
Actually, you're not
being offered employment at Hooli.
18
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,645
They'd give you a full buyout.
19
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,766
How big?
20
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,525
Okay, maybe I'm not explaining this right.
21
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,683
I mean, when you heard
Gavin Belson say it, it sounds much clearer.
22
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,967
He's saying, rather than
put us out of business,
23
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,405
he'd prefer to just take us
and make us part of his, um, Hoo...
24
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,164
Okay, that does sound bad.
25
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,642
But, look, you just had to be there, okay?
He's very articulate.
26
00:01:11,320 --> 00:01:14,802
Richard, you didn't leave your drink
unattended around Gavin, did you?
27
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,370
Yeah, you don't sound like yourself.
28
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,920
I'm fine. And for what it's worth,
29
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,651
Monica thinks
this is the right thing for us to do.
30
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,446
What?
31
00:01:23,960 --> 00:01:26,247
You told Monica about this
before you told us?
32
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:27,685
I don't know, Gilfoyle.
33
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,764
I guess I thought that Monica would
actually give this rational thought
34
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,684
as opposed to ordering me
to chortle her balls.
35
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,081
Guys, Richard's right.
36
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,362
It's a pretty good deal, all things considered,
37
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,525
and, Richard, I'd understand if you took it.
38
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:42,931
Thank you, Jared.
39
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,443
But Hooli was like an abusive spouse to me.
40
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:52,321
You know, like that guy who married
Julia Roberts in Sleeping with the Enemy?
41
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,448
It was dehumanizing.
42
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,727
But then, you, Richard,
you pulled me out of the life
43
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,406
and you gave me hope
and you gave me a sense of self-worth.
44
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,086
Like Richard Gere did to Julia Roberts
in Pretty Woman.
45
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,685
- This is weird.
- Every day here
46
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,001
has been like that shopping-spree scene.
47
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,730
- I'm putting on hats.
- RICHARD: Okay.
48
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,562
Julia Roberts aside,
49
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:14,440
are you guys saying
that you'd rather me let Pied Piper die?
50
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,289
'Cause that's what's going to happen
if we don't take this deal.
51
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,761
Face it, Gavin has us cornered.
52
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,370
He has you cornered.
53
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,602
Yeah, we can just go work on our apps.
54
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,245
Sorry, I'm not going to go work for Hooli.
55
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,006
Same for me,
except for the part about being sorry.
56
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,368
And this buyout sucks.
I'll have nothing to do with it.
57
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,761
If you're going to go at this one,
58
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,571
it sounds like you're going
to have to go at it alone, hoss.
59
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,763
Okay, so if I go to Hooli,
you don't want your check?
60
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,763
Of course I want my check.
What are you, insane?
61
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,323
But I think it's important for me to show
my dissatisfaction by walking out on you.
62
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,848
Richard, I'd understand if you took it,
63
00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:00,605
but watching you end up over there
would break my heart.
64
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,521
What, like Julia Roberts
from My Best Friend's Wedding?

you were heading over to Hooli.

are actually treated worse.

You build whatever the fuck you've got going
171
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,526
in that crazy, fucked-up,
genius brain up there.
172
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,206
It's all up to you.
I'm white glove, hands the fuck off.
173
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,930
Let's make you a billion dollars.
174
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,650
Let's make me a billion more.
How's that sound?
175
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,206
You're not worried about the lawsuit?
176
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,284
Shit, no. I got three nannies suing me
right now, one of them for no reason.
177
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,361
So come on, let's do this.
178
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,721
Let's kick Gavin Belson's teeth in at CES.
179
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,848
And then when you're really worth something,
180
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,844
I'm gonna take you back
to those same spineless VCs who said no,
181
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,447
and I'm gonna shove you
right up their assholes.
182
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:34,761
Um...
183
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,683
That's a very enticing offer.
184
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,889
And I wish I didn't have to do this Hooli thing,
but I should probably at least...
185
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,648
"Should"? No, no, Richard.
Don't do what you should do.
186
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,721
Do what you want.
187
00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:51,082
I mean, should I pay 800 bucks
for that tiny piece of meat?
188
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,607
Of course not. But I do it anyway.
Because I want it.
189
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,080
Simple question, Richard,
"What do you want?"
190
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,888
Gentlemen, what's the update on the apps?
Or the app-date, if you will?
191
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,405
I will not.
192
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,448
DINESH: Here's my app-date.
193
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,922
I was excited to work on it,
and then I looked at it with fresh eyes.
194
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,562
Wajeed was right. It's really shitty.
I don't know what the fuck I was thinking.
195
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:19,880
But I bought your pitch.
196
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,530
Yeah, you fucked up, too.
197
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,841
My app is still great.
198
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,446
But in the time that we've been
clicking around with Pied Piper,
199
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,922
ten other apps that basically
do the exact same thing have come out.
200
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,651
Guys, if I list you as references,
201
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,927
can I count on you
to say nice things about me?
202
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,047
Be honest.
203
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,441
Do you want me to be honest or nice?
204
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,609
What, did you get
a parking ticket or something?
205
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,729
Yeah, I still can't see it.
Could you use your mouth?
206
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,889
All right. Just read it.
207
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,727
-$5 million?
- Yeah, yeah.
208
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,805
You guys are not going back to Hooli,
and neither am l.
209
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,126
How the fuck did you get that?
210
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,249
Russ Hanneman?
211
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,322
Oh, Monica, I see you got my text.
212
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:17,811
Are you out of your mind?
213
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,281
Nice to see you, too, and, no, I'm not.
214
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,091
You're putting your entire future
215
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,926
in the hands of the man
who put radio on the Internet?
216
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,685
I can only assume
that he mentioned that to you.
217
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,330
It may have come up.
218
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,121
Oh, this guy. That's the guy?
219
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,725
Yeah, that's the guy.
220
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,806
Does he actually smile like that with
his upper and lower teeth at the same time?
221
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,564
MONICA: The guy is a joke.
222
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:44,766
DINESH: How does he even do that?
223
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,003
He's a boorish, pompous,
womanizing douchebag
224
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,244
who got lucky, like, 20 years ago
and hasn't done anything since then.
225
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,086
Sounds like Erlich.
226
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,640
Sounds like he knows who he is
and he doesn't apologize for it.
227
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,330
So he's a joke. Who cares?
228
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,849
This joke is willing to give us $5 million
to fund Pied Piper.
229
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,161
And he doesn't own anything.
This whole thing is a loan.
230
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,687
Yeah, the demand note
is structured as a loan.
231
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,923
But he does have the option
to take repayment in the form of equity,
232
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,241
and he does get two board seats
right off the bat.
233
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,727
Yeah.
Which means you won't get rid of him, ever.
234
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,371
If you succeed,
he gets a huge chunk of Pied Piper
235
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,445
and if you fail, this lunatic
has ratchets to seize control of the company.
236
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,489
Love it or hate it,
at least Hooli is a real company.
237
00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:29,005
You should take their offer.
238
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,605
I should. I should.
239
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,369
But I'm tired of doing what I should do,
240
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,681
and I kind of want to start doing
what I want to do.
241
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,084
And what I want to do is
be a self-centered, irrational asshole
242
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,448
that doesn't compromise
on anything, at all, ever.
243
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,522
And when Pied Piper is a big fucking deal,
244
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,610
Russ is going to take us back
to all those VCs who passed on us
245
00:11:48,680 --> 00:11:51,286
and shove us right up their fucking assholes.
246
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,081
ERLICHI What?
247
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,686
Yeah, I don't want any part of that last bit.
248
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,649
It sounded better when Russ said it.
249
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,724
Again, I am not good at quoting in context.
250
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,690
It doesn't matter. I'm going to...
251
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,205
I'm going to call Ron LaFlamme,
252
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,886
and I'm going to tell him
that we're taking Russ's money.
253
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,724
Okay, so I'm supposed to tell Laurie Bream
254
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,964
that she is publicly co-invested
with Russ fucking Hanneman?
255
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,884
So, you'd rather me
sell my soul to Gavin Belson
256
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,248
than you just having
an awkward conversation with your boss?
257
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,448
Oh, thanks, Monica.
258
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,887
The guy has calf implants, Richard.
259
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,610
How do they look?
260
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,926
GAVIN: Everyone on Twitter is saying
I'm an anti-Semite. You were there.
261
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,447
DENPOK: I was.
And what I saw was an anti anti-Semite.
262
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:36,766
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
263
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,320
Hello? Did you hear from Hendricks?
264
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,286
What do you mean
he went with someone else?
265
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,771
Who did he go with?
266
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:46,924
Are you fucking kidding me?
267
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,488
- Russ Hanneman?
- That's right.
268
00:12:55,560 --> 00:12:57,801
The Russ Hanneman with whom I am familiar?
269
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,285
Yes.
270
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,807
That is with whom they chose to go?
Russ Hanneman?
271
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,961
Yes.
272
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,726
He's a vulgar human being.
He's utterly distasteful.
273
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,566
And it would not be inaccurate to say
274
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,371
that we at Raviga
275
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,451
are now co-investors
276
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:22,810
with Russ Hanneman.
277
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,963
- I tried to talk him out of it. I did, but...
- Mmm-hmm.
278
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:28,646
You know what?
279
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,371
Peter used to say
that every successful company
280
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,525
could look back at a defining moment early on
where they would have died
281
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,524
had it not been for
the courage and the tenacity
282
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:43,322
and maybe the insanity of one
visionary person who put it all on the line
283
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,607
even though it seemed
like a huge mistake at the time.
284
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,805
A moment where all the metrics
and the numbers didn't mean anything.
285
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:54,681
It was all about the emotion.
It was about belief, rational or irrational.
286
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,250
And I think...
287
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,769
I hope that I just witnessed that.
288
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:06,762
I did not understand
any of what you just said.
289
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:08,761
Oh...
290
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:09,887
- None of it?
- None of it.
291
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,682
I will not interact with Russ Hanneman
in any way. Is that clear?
292
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,046
It is, Laurie.
293
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:20,125
I feel very strongly
that you should have prevented this.
294
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,851
- This exchange is now over.
- Okay, but I...
295
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,649
This exchange is now over, thank you.
296
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,885
JARED: Well, Richard?
297
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,884
Firstly, congratulations
on finally being funded.
298
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,760
I hope you took a little time out
to enjoy this moment and celebrate.
299
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,001
I certainly did.
300
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,121
(CLICKING)
301
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,043
- You did?
- I did indeed.
302
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:43,770
I celebrated earlier this morning.
303
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,529
You did, this morning?
304
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,810
Oh, yeah.
305
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,006
(CHUCKUNG)
306
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,127
But now it's down to business.
307
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,807
We have a huge amount of work to do
between now and January.
308
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,484
I know $5 million sounds like a lot of money,
309
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,245
but even if we set
our burn rate conservatively,
310
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,402
it's only going to last 18 months.
311
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,245
Litigation wipes out half our funds
right off the bat.
312
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,006
And we have to stand up servers,
pay for financial and HR,
313
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,766
pay LaFlamme,
and payroll alone is going to be pretty hefty.
314
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,243
Did you see the hiring proposals
that Dinesh and Gilfoyle submitted?
315
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,766
- No.
- They're untenable.
316
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,367
Well, I need four web-app devs,
two front end, two back end.
317
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,762
I need a guy to turn your ref code
into a production-quality library.
318
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,367
I need two more guys
to port the decompression libraries,
319
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,410
do JavaScript, iOS, Android,
320
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,041
and I need a few more guys
to build out our APls,
321
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,771
so I need all those guys.
322
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,406
Ditto. I need every one
of those guys on my list.
323
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,290
Okay, it's just that there's...
That's 15 people each.
324
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,169
I mean, that's like
an entire division at Facebook.
325
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,208
Fine, I could do it with 12.
326
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,647
I could do it with 11
because I'm a better leader than Dinesh.
327
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,290
Okay, great.
328
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,524
Well, good news.
I got them to cut it down to 12 and 11.
329
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,840
A positive step,
but we need to cut a little deeper.
330
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,004
Okay, well, what's the max amount of people
we can afford to hire for them?
331
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,081
Three for each of them.
332
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,725
Three? Are you serious?
333
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,166
Can you just tell them?
334
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:18,401
Oh, I have, several times.
335
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,963
But they just kept saying if I didn't waste
so much money at the butthole doctor,
336
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,166
then we'd have enough money,
337
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,050
but I pay for all my medical out of pocket.
338
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,370
We can only afford to hire
three people for each of you.
339
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,965
I'm sorry, but that's it.
340
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,566
- Okay, that's fine.
- It works for me.
341
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,166
What?
342
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,289
If you could do it with three people,
why didn't you just say so?
343
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,806
Because we're negotiating against each other.
344
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,965
No, we're not. We're on the same team.
We want the same thing.
345
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,762
Disagree. I just got you to give me three guys
for a job I could easily do with two.
346
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,285
God damn it.
347
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,361
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
348
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,445
Knock, knock, who's there? This guy.
349
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:56,521
Hey, Russ, what's up?
350
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,331
- RUSS: How are you?
- I'm good. What brings you here?
351
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,880
I had to meet this lawyer
and his fucking kid's sick,
352
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,246
so now I have a few hours to kill.
353
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:09,168
Did I see a McLaren 650 S with
the extra-trim package pull into the driveway?
354
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,481
- Or did I not?
- Yep.
355
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,040
So this is the team.
356
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,206
Whoa...
357
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,284
I'm just gonna say it.
This guy fucks. Am I right?
358
00:17:19,360 --> 00:17:21,010
'Cause I'm looking at the rest of you guys,
359
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,730
and this is the guy in the house
doing all the fucking.
360
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:23,801
Am I right? You know I'm right.
361
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:27,043
This guy fucks.
362
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:28,201
Thank you.
363
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,486
Hey, what's up, al-Qaeda?
364
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,801
No, I'm totally kidding.
I'm diffusing the tension with humor.
365
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,689
What tension? There's tension?
366
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,683
No, of course not.
Seriously, no beheadings, though, all right?
367
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,808
Russ Hanneman.
How you doing, motherfucker?
368
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,209
Oh, man.
369
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,090
I want to know what kind
of fucked-up childhood this guy had.
370
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,161
(CHUCKLES)
371
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:52,724
All right, fellas, what are we doing here?
372
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:58,768
Mr. Hanneman, I am Erlich Bachman.
I am the owner and proprietor of this house.
373
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,763
So I can give you
a tour of the premises if you like,
374
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,571
show you where the actual fucking happens.
375
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:04,766
Nah, I'm good.
376
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,765
Listen, I don't want to disturb the flow.
I just wanted to check out the magic in action.
377
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:09,921
So I'm gonna grab a seat right over there.
378
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,241
I'm gonna be a fly on the wall.
I'm not gonna say a word. Shh.
379
00:18:12,360 --> 00:18:16,160
We have a meeting that we were going to do,
so maybe we could just do that?
380
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,682
It was nice to meet you, Russ.
381
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,444
So, uh, I think we'd actually save a lot of time
382
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,127
if we got on the same page
in regards to the budget.
383
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,089
So what I need from you guys is to...
384
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,242
I'm sorry, do you really talk like that?
385
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:32,124
- Like what?
- Like that.
386
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,522
I mean, this is...
This is my normal speaking voice.
387
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,728
Like right now, like how you're talking,
is that real?
388
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,609
This one? This is real.
389
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,721
Wow!
390
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,244
All right, yeah. Doesn't matter, go, go.
391
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,766
This is the same way
as I was talking back there.
392
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,649
- RUSS: Keep going.
- At the door. Okay.
393
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,165
Okay, so I think, actually,
if we went back closer to...
394
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,322
C Dog! You, homo.
395
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,448
-...our requests with an eye...
- Nothing.
396
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:58,965
RUSS: No, you should come here.
397
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,321
- Keep going, keep going.
- Okay.
398
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,244
-...that's more in line with...
- What's the address here again?
399
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:07,401
I would just clear it with Erlich...
400
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,481
Hang on.
401
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,249
It's 5230 Newell Road.
402
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,249
Did you get that? Keep going, keep going.
403
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,243
- Okay, back to it.
- Get a fucking pen.
404
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:18,810
Go again. Say it one more time.
405
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,006
The address is...
406
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,209
- Go for it.
-It's 5230 Newell Road.
407
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,165
Keep going. Did you get that?
408
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,971
I don't know. He's a fucker.
409
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,650
GAVIN: That little Hendricks prick
fucked me over, again.
410
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,644
I want this suit to be more
than a holding action. I want to win it.
411
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:35,881
What can we do here?
412
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,887
Well, this lawsuit is going to be
a protracted and time-consuming ordeal.
413
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,043
But with our superior resources,
top litigators,
414
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,686
we feel this gives us the advantage
over Pied Piper.
415
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,649
Translation?
416
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:54,170
Ultimately, the suit will turn based on proving
that Pied Piper was created here at Hooli.
417
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,210
Now so far, concrete evidence of that is thin.
418
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,566
So thicken it!
419
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:02,691
Gavin, your visitors are here.
420
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,287
Ah! Gentlemen! And lady.
421
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:06,766
(SPEAKING HEBREW)
422
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,082
Thank you for coming today
to open a dialogue.
423
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,366
Now if you'll follow me.
424
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,887
In an effort to hardwire sensitivity
into our corporate mind-space,
425
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,090
I'm having a scale replica
of the Hall of Names at Yad Vashem
426
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,049
constructed right next to the bike shop.
427
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,810
RICHARD: Okay, so...
428
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,362
No,no,no!
It's got to be afternoon. Afternoon.
429
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,568
No, no. Bring him, too.
Which Raoul? Lawyer Raoul?
430
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,405
RICHARD: Litigation and payroll
are both capped.
431
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,608
- SG&A, we still have a little wiggle room.
- (VIDEO GAME PLAYING)
432
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,564
And we're going to punt...
433
00:20:37,120 --> 00:20:38,121
RUSS: No, fuckhead!
434
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:40,931
Sir, you know you can
turn the volume down on that.
435
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,923
Just on the side.
436
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,764
RICHARD: Where does that leave us?
437
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,205
ERLICH: Let's go open an IPA, huh?
438
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,045
I'm sorry, what? I couldn't hear you.
Someone was talking. What did you say?
439
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,131
Keep going, keep going.
440
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,362
- Right.
- Richard, one potential issue.
441
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,086
Our hosting fees could become
a challenge as we scale.
442
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,528
Right, but we can offset a lot of that
once we get a few customers
443
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,284
and start a subscription-revenue model.
444
00:21:01,360 --> 00:21:04,762
What? Revenue? No, no, no.
No revenue. I'll call you back.
445
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,285
What?
446
00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:07,930
Why would you go after revenue?
447
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,131
Because to make money.
448
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,929
No.
449
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,362
If you show revenue, people will ask,
"How much?" And it will never be enough.
450
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,206
The company that was the 100xer,
the 1,000xer, becomes the 2x dog.
451
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,648
But if you have no revenue,
you can say you're pre-revenue.
452
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,569
You're a potential pure play.
453
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,923
It's not about how much you earn,
it's about what you're worth.
454
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,650
And who's worth the most?
455
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,051
Companies that lose money.
456
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:33,963
Pinterest, Snapchat, no revenue.
457
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,805
Amazon has lost money every fucking quarter
for the last 20 fucking years
458
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,245
and that Bezos motherfucker is the king.
459
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:39,287
The king.
460
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,971
There's no revenue.
No one wants to see revenue. Go.
461
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,245
I just thought that mainly
the goal of companies is to make money.
462
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,209
Yeah, no, no, no. That's not how it works.
463
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,282
I don't want to make
a little bit of money every day.
464
00:21:52,360 --> 00:21:54,601
I want to make a fuckton of money all at once.
ROI.
465
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,686
ROI. You know what that stands for?
466
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,003
- Uh, return on...
- Return on investment!
467
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,923
No.
468
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,163
- Radio on Internet.
- Internet.
469
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:08,401
Did you put radio on the Internet?
470
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,082
- No.
- So everything you just did, do the opposite.
471
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,605
So you want us to take files
and make them bigger?
472
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,245
(LAUGHS) That guy!
473
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,288
That guy is crazy. I love that guy.
474
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,688
You said that you were going to be hands-off.
Is that still happening?
475
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:25,921
Yes, please.
476
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,731
Do me a favor, make the right
fucking decisions and leave me the fuck out.
477
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,770
You think Corey wants to be here?
Corey, let's bounce. Come on.
478
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,923
- Uh, Richard? The check.
- RICHARD: Right.
479
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,090
Mr. Hanneman, I think
the bank had some issue with the check.
480
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,606
They said the funds are on hold
for some reason?
481
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,445
Wait, you didn't try to cash that check,
did you? (LAUGHS)
482
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,249
Did you try to cash that check I gave you?
483
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,130
That's the show check. That's the one
you frame and put up on your wall.
484
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,884
You didn't try to cash that, did you?
485
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,130
So do we arrange a wire transfer or...
486
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,362
No. No, you don't get it all at once.
487
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,960
We set your burn rate and then
I cut you a new check every other week
488
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,771
between now and CES in January,
unless you fuck up too badly.
489
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,047
All right, hit it hard, boys.
490
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:08,845
This guy fucks.
491
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,362
You know, Russ,
I've been known to fuck myself.
492
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,441
(DOOR CLOSES)
493
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,120
Well, he's the worst man in America.
494
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,770
And now he owns us.

(RICHARD SIGHS)
496
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,002
ERLICH: Why the fuck would he have us
come all the way out here?
497
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,491
RICHARD: I don't know.
498
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,811
Boys.
499
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:38,881
RICHARD: Russ, what's up? Um...
500
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,005
I know you had asked us to concentrate
more on branding and less about the product,
501
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,605
but we were thinking about that and...
502
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:46,920
I got it.
503
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:51,967
God?
504
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,202
No. No, shitheads. Look!
505
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,004
RICHARD: Oh.
506
00:23:57,120 --> 00:23:59,407
"I am Pied Piper"?
507
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:00,481
Who is that?
508
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,123
DINESH: Yeah, how is she Pied Piper?
509
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,521
- What is this?
- Brand awareness.
510
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,364
We're getting Pied Piper out there.
511
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:08,646
Right.
512
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,364
But what exactly is the product?
I mean, what's... What's this selling?
513
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,204
Pied Piper, idiot.
514
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,362
- I like it.
- Uh-huh.
515
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,809
Yeah, here's the new check I promised you.
This one you can cash.
516
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,804
Obviously, I had to subtract the cost
of the ad agency that nailed that slogan.
517
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,486
The photo, legal, lay-out,
plus the cost of the 15 billboards.
518
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,324
Don't worry,
I gave you guys a sweet deal on them.
519
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:30,845
- Gave us?
- Yeah.
520
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,321
Hanneman Outdoor Media.
I own the billboards.
521
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,609
That's how I talked the ad agency into
giving you guys that slogan for only 30 grand.
522
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,842
Synergy, bitches. Know what that means?
523
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,686
Does it mean taking a stack of cash
and lighting it on fire?
524
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,730
(LAUGHING) Crazy fuck! I love this guy.
525
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,006
You fucking guy! Oh, and get this.
526
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,844
I found out where Gavin Belson lives
527
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,925
and I placed 15 of these babies
between his house and his office.
528
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,243
And guess where I placed
the biggest one of all?
529
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,167
GAVIN: This is the most
hostile and aggressive act
530
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,891
of provocation I've ever had to endure.
531
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,807
It crosses every line of decency.
532
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,160
This is war.
533
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,004
You better have something good for me.
534
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,970
We believe we have a way to win this case.
535
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,442
What if there were an individual here at Hooli
536
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,404
with whom Hendricks
had had a lot of contact?
537
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:30,361
What if this individual were, arguably,
a member of the original Pied Piper team?
538
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,763
What if we took steps
539
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:40,244
to present this individual in a light
such that his talents were undeniable?
540
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,601
Surely an individual this brilliant
541
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,684
would move quickly up the ladder
here at Hooli.
542
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,481
Surely he'd be promoted rapidly
and repeatedly, no?
543
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,645
And surely these impressive promotions
would lead a court to agree
544
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:03,089
that someone this brilliant,
who was there at the inception of Pied Piper,
545
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,131
must be integral to,
if not solely responsible for its creation.
546
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:08,611
It's all right. You can come in.
547
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,047
Hmm.
548
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:16,170
So you're saying the more praise
and promotion we heap on this person,
549
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,165
the more it looks
like Pied Piper was created here at Hooli.
550
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,205
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
551
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:29,761
Big Head!
552
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,127
Sorry. Sorry, guys. Hooli phone?
553
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,043
I didn't even know the ringer was on.
554
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,289
No one's ever actually called it before.
555
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:38,681
Hello?
556
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,243
Nothing. Why?
