1
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:09,840
Final stage of arbitration.
2
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:11,440
Otherwise, we go to court.
3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,400
Yes, but remember,
we have the upper hand.
4
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:22,959
- Hi, there.
- Good morning.
5
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:24,440
Hi, hi. Good Morning.
6
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,280
- Serena Byrne.
- Yes.
7
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:28,919
You're on the first floor.
8
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,959
Ah, it’s so strange to be back here.
9
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,559
What's your-- What's your name again?
10
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,759
- Mandy.
- Mandy, yeah.
11
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,880
I worked here for the past
six years and it's so...
12
00:00:38,480 --> 00:00:39,959
It's surreal to be back here.
13
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:41,719
I’m glad to see
they’ve renovated the foyer.
14
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,239
- Yeah.
- That was actually something that...
15
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:44,679
that I said that they should do.
16
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,439
Anyway, it’s nice to see you again.
17
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:47,960
- Yeah. Bye.
- Bye.
18
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,079
We're looking forward to today.
19
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,159
- Yeah.
- Yeah, we are.
20
00:00:53,160 --> 00:00:56,800
Prenup's gone and I think
we’re in really excellent shape.
21
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,719
St. John’s leading
on their side, by the way.
22
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,960
So it’s you versus him.
23
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:09,040
How are all the cravings?
24
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,560
Werther’s Original. Club biscuits.
25
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,120
I’m into all sorts these days.
26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,999
So, Nick, let's, um, recap
before we all go in.
27
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,639
Estate analyst has property
at 100 million,
28
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,679
investments and pensions at 50.
Another 50 for other assets
29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:35,879
including art.
30
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,239
Morgan had a penchant
for Cubism, Expressionism,
31
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,559
anything early 20th Century.
32
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,080
- Or the guy that buys his art does.
- Well, exactly.
33
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,799
All in, we’re looking at 300 million.
34
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,919
- Yeah.
- Of which we’ll expect half.
35
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,360
Obviously. However...
36
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,319
Zephyr remains the wildcard.
37
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,159
Worth pennies
when they got married but...
38
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,439
It’s all gone silly since then.
39
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:55,880
What does that mean in numbers?
40
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,559
As I've said to Serena,
41
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,760
overall figure you should be asking
for today is half a billion.
42
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:03,440
Sterling.
43
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,920
Which explains why our client's
in such a jolly mood.
44
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,719
St. John’s leading on their side.
45
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,280
Yes, I was aware of that, thank you.
46
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,800
Singer.
47
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:21,960
"Singer"?
48
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,719
Nick and I were
at Borthwicks together years ago,
49
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,679
and that was his nickname, Singer.
50
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,279
I just remembered this morning.
51
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,119
I should mention some of the...
52
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,039
the nicknames that we had
for you, St. John.
53
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,080
Please, go ahead.
54
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,519
Well, I don't think we want
to sink to that now, do we?
55
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,279
Is it because there weren't any?
56
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,919
Hard to remember things
that don't exist, I suppose.
57
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:44,120
They did exist.
58
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,919
May I begin,
following the dismissal of the PNA
59
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:54,119
by thanking the Cathcarts team
for, as I understand it,
60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,559
putting forward a new starting point, yes?
61
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,600
That is correct.
Fifty percent of our client's net worth.
62
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,520
I wish to make it very...
63
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,080
clear that...
64
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,360
that we object to this derisory figure.
65
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,519
- What is the figure?
- Well, it seems to relate
66
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,480
to your client's pett-- petty cash tin,
67
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,600
rather than, you know,
68
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,759
instead of his... amassed assets.
69
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,320
It relates to the agreed assets
listed in the disclosures.
70
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,879
If there's a problem,
Singer, let's hear it.
71
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,040
Isn't that what we're all trying
to do here?
72
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,760
Mr. Taylor, the floor is yours.
73
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,480
We-- we absolutely...
74
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,079
cannot proceed
with this... you know, until--
75
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,000
until we get time
to interrogate this number.
76
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:25,920
What's the fucking number?
77
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,879
May I remind everyone,
should this process fail,
78
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,880
we have no choice
but to proceed to trial.
79
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,519
Forty-five?
80
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,680
I know.
81
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,880
Forty-five.
82
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,519
Well, don't bring me here.
If you know I'm upset,
83
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,160
don't bring me to a place like this.
84
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:43,879
Or was that the plan?
85
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,039
Take her to the library,
stop her from shouting at us
86
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,359
for getting it so badly wrong?
87
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,679
We haven't gotten it wrong.
88
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,719
This morning, you said half a billion.
89
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:51,799
I know.
90
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,559
That's more than ten times as much.
91
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:54,719
I know.
92
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,400
- Stop saying you know.
- It's a ridiculous offer.
93
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,560
But it is all just...
It's standard gameplay.
94
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,079
Look, I get that it's
an obscene amount of money,
95
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,679
but the fact is, it's not 50-50.
96
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,199
Even if it was 50p and 50p,
if I am one half of this partnership.
97
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,920
You expect the same as Morgan,
and we agree with that.
98
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:16,360
Don't we?
99
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,519
Totally. Totally.
100
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,559
And we will push back aggressively,
101
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,000
and, you know, just make
a mockery of this number.
102
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,079
- Really?
- You just watch.
103
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,960
'Cause those weren't exactly the vibes
you were giving off in the meeting.
104
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,280
You went for the more
"sit there looking dumbstruck" approach.
105
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,160
Nick, slight problem.
106
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,959
Call me sooner
rather than later, please.
107
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,199
Well, it's probably better
you weren't there, to be honest.
108
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,039
The whole thing felt like
one big willy-waving exercise.
109
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,239
St. John trying to prove he had
the biggest sword in the room.
110
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,520
Nick, not quite...
111
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,359
Not-- not quite what?
112
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,439
My God, it was like
he’d left his sword at home. Thanks.
113
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,159
But that's okay. I mean,
they can offer us as little as they want.
114
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,239
Our position is strong.
115
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,799
Right, let's go back
through the shadow valuations
116
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,240
and look to see
if there's anything we've missed.
117
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,800
Above the grunt work now, are we?
118
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,559
Are you gonna find
Morgan's hidden billions in his socials?
119
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,439
He's looking for what he's hiding
by looking at what he's showing.
120
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,040
Sorry, we've tried that already.
121
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,079
Michael Ancker has liked
every Morgan post for the last month
122
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,720
with zero interaction
from Morgan until a week ago.
123
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,919
Gillian Pope, that's Zephyr's CFO,
124
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,040
has been chef-kissing
the shit out of Ancker's posts.
125
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,640
You think they are going to sell?
126
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,679
No. No, he does that, Carla gets half.
127
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,359
Whatever it is,
you should tell Nick and Serena.
128
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,119
She wants to know everything.
They're having a drink with Carla.
129
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,120
Yep. Cool. Right, I'll see you in a bit.
130
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,919
We have everybody working on this, Carla.
The whole firm.
131
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,319
People are working through the night
so that in the morning, I promise you,
132
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:06,600
we will call their bluff.
133
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:09,600
Tell me how you're feeling.
134
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:12,640
We're drinking okay wine
135
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,480
in a not great bar,
136
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,999
while Morgan's team
are working round the clock
137
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,120
to fuck me over.
138
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,760
I'm just ever so slightly
under-fucking-whelmed
139
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:24,960
with both of you,
140
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:27,160
is how I'm feeling.
141
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,440
- Shall I get you a car?
- I've got a car.
142
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,680
What I need is a decent divorce.
143
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:45,920
What the fuck is wrong with you?
144
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:52,200
Thank you.
145
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,680
- You one of the people working late?
- One of the many.
146
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,679
How's it going?
147
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:01,840
Oh, you're fucked.
148
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,720
Was it all right, missing that party?
Was your girlfriend pissed?
149
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:10,519
Well, it was my fault.
150
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:16,080
But she forgets that I'm not trained
in posh prick etiquette, but I do try.
151
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,719
Don't.
152
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:18,799
Don't try.
153
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,639
Don't pretend to be anything
that you're not.
154
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:21,839
Says the actress.
155
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:22,840
Can't kid a kidder.
156
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,840
Yeah, but it cuts both ways, dunnit?
157
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,359
You know, not everyone gets
to see the real Carla Duval,
158
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,640
but when they do, it's...
159
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,280
When they do, it's what?
160
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:34,920
Well, it's such a pleasant surprise.
161
00:09:38,680 --> 00:09:41,880
Careful. There are people
taking photos on their phones.
162
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,559
She needed reassurance.
163
00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:51,639
I gave her reassurance.
164
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,399
Oh, did you? I think
I must have missed that bit.
165
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,080
- Why are you being like this?
- We're about to get fired.
166
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,719
It's one thing losing your first big case.
167
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,839
It's another thing losing
the actual sodding client.
168
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,599
- And the worst thing...
- We're not gonna lose the client.
169
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,999
...is she's absolutely right.
170
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,879
You just sat there
while St. John made a fool of us.
171
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:06,880
Of you.
172
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,799
It was a lowball offer, Nick.
Not even a very good one.
173
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,479
You locate your balls
and you fire back.
174
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,599
We can't counter until we know
how they're minimizing his worth.
175
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,359
Or I can take over,
because I can, if you want.
176
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,359
Swap now. That'll look very...
177
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,599
Very what? Very...
178
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,640
Very weak?
179
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,079
- Oh, God.
- Michael wanted me to update you all
180
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,400
on the latest information request
we're making to Zephyr.
181
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,079
Yep.
182
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,159
Thank you, Johnny.
183
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,200
You can update Nick.
I'm leaving.
184
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,439
Oh, and by the way,
185
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,440
Bernard wants you back
at the office when we're done.
186
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,440
Small one?
187
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,319
I'm not having one.
188
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,240
He is. I have to go and see Cathy.
189
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,440
I'm having one because we're up.
190
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,320
The mole has come up for air.
191
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,839
They're all at sixes and sevens,
arguing internally.
192
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,279
Mummy's cross with Daddy
because Daddy did badly at work today.
193
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,159
Which means what, do we think?
That they might settle?
194
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,319
- How boring of them.
- I'd like them to settle.
195
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,720
- How boring of you.
- Provided it's a good offer.
196
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,360
And I say that, St. John,
because something's wrong.
197
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,319
They got the prenup thrown out.
198
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,120
They arrived here
this morning in high spirits.
199
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,439
Then all of a sudden,
some silly opening offer...
200
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,360
- Silly?
- ...sends them sprawling.
201
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,600
Even we think more
of them than that.
202
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,160
I don't want us getting caught out
by some kind of feint here.
203
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:35,999
There must be more to this.
204
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,199
There is.
205
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,160
Nicholas can't look St. John in the face
because of the Singer situation.
206
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,440
When Taylor first qualified,
207
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,759
Fiona Rose-Macklin and I
threw him in the deep end,
208
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,119
had him present to one
of our biggest clients.
209
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,120
This was at Borthwicks?
210
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,239
And he thought
that meant a one-to-one.
211
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,440
But when the client turned up,
he had the entire board with him.
212
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,119
Poor Nick went to pot,
started jabbering, stammering,
213
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,920
couldn't get his words out in the room,
and then couldn't get past it for months.
214
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,879
In the end,
Fiona found him a vocal coach
215
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,080
whose technique was to sing.
216
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,959
Sing?
217
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,240
Sing through the stutter.
218
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,359
Hence the nickname.
219
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,879
And you never let him forget it?
220
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,240
No, I reminded him.
221
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,840
Not quite the same th-- thing.
222
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,120
That's bullying.
223
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,159
Don't say it like it's bad.
224
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,800
It means he's having flashbacks,
which is good for us.
225
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,120
More of the same tomorrow, we hope.
226
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,000
Turn my lights out when you go.
227
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,000
She's always been like that.
228
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:47,120
Triple checking, in case we're not ahead.
229
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,240
Not a bad habit, I suppose.
230
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,960
"The simple act of paying attention
can get you a long way."
231
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,159
Remind me?
232
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,160
Keanu Reeves.
233
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,160
It's looking worse than we thought.
234
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:12,800
Wage bill is high.
235
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,720
Office isn't cheap, as we know.
236
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,399
And we're not taking
on any new cases.
237
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,000
The Carla case is all-consuming.
238
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,279
Then it needs to be resolved.
239
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,639
No, we need to win it.
That's what we need, Bernard.
240
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,720
I don't think you understand
the position we're in here.
241
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,760
What a black hole this is.
242
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,599
Everyone in the building
is working on Duval.
243
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:36,439
So either we get better and win it,
or get worse and we get fired.
244
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,520
Because this can't go on.
245
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,639
How bad are we talking?
246
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,560
By next month, you won't be able
to pay me to tell you how bad.
247
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,359
Everything Michael's found today,
if you could summarize it in an email
248
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,239
and send it to the whole team.
I want everyone knowing
249
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:04,799
what points
I'll be hitting tomorrow morning.
250
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,039
And do you want that as in,
like, right now?
251
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,839
If that's okay with you, Saeed.
252
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:09,920
Yeah.
253
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:16,559
Four years at law school,
and I'm basically the bosses' bitch.
254
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:17,879
At least you are a bitch.
255
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,880
Imagine being me.
256
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,120
Working this hard just hoping
to achieve bitch status.
257
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,239
I don't even mind doing it.
He just doesn't rate me.
258
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,280
Of course he does.
259
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,639
Hey, there's a group of us
that go out on Thursdays.
260
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:32,640
I can't.
261
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,439
I promised Philip I'd shortlist
house viewings with him later.
262
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:36,519
Oh, wow.
263
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,600
What, you gonna move to the burbs
and start gardening?
264
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,360
Finish the notes, come for a drink.
265
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,239
Michael Ancker's EA is gonna be there.
266
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,639
Well, not his actual EA,
267
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,839
but his EA's EA
who works in the London office,
268
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,480
and he is absolutely hot.
269
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,559
Not that that last bit's
relevant in any way.
270
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:56,560
Absolutely not.
271
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,280
- Bye.
- Bye-bye.
272
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,639
We need all the paperwork you can get.
273
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,640
Bank statements, proof of address,
whatever you can find.
274
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,519
I'm just arriving now.
275
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:19,520
Good.
276
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,079
Stephen's with me.
We've been on this all day.
277
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,560
How far have you got?
278
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:26,960
Getting there.
279
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:28,440
Slowly.
280
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,719
What the hell's taking so long?
281
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,319
You're gifting
multi-millions worth of shares
282
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,160
to your colleague to prevent your wife
getting hold of them, Morgan.
283
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,720
Not sending me 50 quid for my birthday.
284
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,119
Oh, I tell you what would speed things up.
285
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:44,679
If you came to the office, gave us
286
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,680
those signatures
we've been chasing you for.
287
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,560
Or we could come to you.
288
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:54,920
Morgan.
289
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,560
I'll call you back.
290
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,639
Oh my God, stop it!
291
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:44,879
You came!
292
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,519
- Hi.
- Aw, hi.
293
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:47,759
Guys, this is Saeed.
294
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,359
- Hi.
- Hi, Saeed.
295
00:17:49,360 --> 00:17:52,519
He's a fellow junior,
and he is sober as fuck,
296
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:53,960
so let's help a guy out.
297
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,799
Which one is Ancker's EA?
298
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,320
Oh, wouldn't you like to know?
299
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,640
- He's not even here.
- Oh.
300
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,200
- Which one do you want?
- I want none of them.
301
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,480
Oh, my gosh.
302
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,400
Yeah!
303
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,680
- Good job.
- Molly, what is in that?
304
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,480
- I'm gonna go get a drink!
- Okay!
305
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,560
Sorry.
306
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:46,840
There you go.
307
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,360
Cheers.
308
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,680
Hello!
309
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,200
Taylor's boy.
Out on a school night. Tut, tut.
310
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,559
Listen, if it makes you feel any better,
that guy seemed like a bit of a dick.
311
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:23,760
Excuse me?
312
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,399
I just mean you shouldn't worry
if someone doesn't,
313
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:28,880
you know, see your qualities.
314
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,120
No, I said excuse me.
315
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,040
Molly! Molly.
316
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,079
You're not gonna believe
who I've just seen.
317
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,999
This is Saeed. We work together.
318
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,400
And this is Noah,
who I was telling you about.
319
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:01,760
Yeah, apparently you work for a guy
who doesn't appreciate you either.
320
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,000
Well, is it that obvious?
321
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,840
No, no, I just...
322
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,120
I feel like I've met you before,
if that's not weird.
323
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,840
No. No, it's nice.
324
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,999
I'm gonna go.
325
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,279
- Really?
- Yes.
326
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,400
You're welcome, bitch.
327
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,239
- Bye-bye.
- See you.
328
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:19,240
Bye!
329
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,199
So you're a lawyer?
330
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,200
Yes.
331
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:25,879
That's pretty cool.
332
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,160
I mean, it's not really, but thank you.
333
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:31,560
Can I have some cigarette?
334
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,280
Sure.
335
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:39,520
All right, lads?
336
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,320
- Go in there.
- Sorry guys!
337
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:47,840
Wait.
338
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:50,920
Okay.
339
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,839
Wait, you're not into gardening, are you?
340
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,719
What is that, like some kind
of fucked up euphemism?
341
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,799
No, no, like actual gardening.
342
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,359
No, I don't have an opinion on that.
343
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:03,760
Good. Me neither.
344
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,359
Okay, let's-- let's do some of this.
345
00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:10,519
Whoa! No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'll be awake all night.
346
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,840
Oh, don't worry about that.
You'll be awake anyway.
347
00:22:35,120 --> 00:22:36,320
You gotta be joking.
348
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,439
We're not fucking settling,
not at a shitty low number.
349
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,240
We are sinking financially.
350
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,799
And you're worried
Carla's going to sack us.
351
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,679
- She won't.
- Then why say it?
352
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,279
Because I want to fight, Nicky.
That's what I want.
353
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,639
I want to win,
not throw the towel in.
354
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,639
- It doesn't have to come across like that.
- Really? Because it feels like that to me.
355
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:56,839
- You're a lawyer.
- So?
356
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,399
So it doesn't matter what you feel.
357
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,039
We strike a deal, proactive,
something that works for Carla.
358
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,599
Okay, it's not half a billion.
359
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,559
It-- it would never
have been half a billion.
360
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,079
But it just-- it beats
whatever's in the prenup.
361
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,079
She wins, he wins,
and we get ourselves out of this mess.
362
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:11,799
This is our first big case.
363
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,200
It's our only case, if we don't.
364
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,959
You know what, no, no,
that is not why we set up.
365
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,479
That is not what Carla deserves.
366
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,480
Carla doesn't get a fucking vote!
367
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,960
No, no she doesn't,
and that's why she's relying on us!
368
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,600
I'm serious, Nick.
369
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:40,440
Be stronger.
370
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:42,319
Take control of this.
371
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,719
Get past whatever school reunion bullshit
372
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,119
you and St. John
have going on and win this.
373
00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:48,959
If it's a number,
it needs to be decent.
374
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,400
No? Nothing more to say?
375
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,560
- Morning.
- Morning.
376
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:21,480
Right.
377
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,320
We are quorate, save for our...
378
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:25,880
Save for our clients.
379
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,640
Maybe they've given up on us altogether
and have decided to arbitrate themselves.
380
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,440
No? Okay. No.
381
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:39,800
Thanks.
382
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,040
Just a moment.
383
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:09,520
One question.
384
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:11,920
Why the premiere?
385
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,480
My big night.
386
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:16,960
Why so cruel?
387
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:19,040
It was their idea.
388
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,000
Not mine.
389
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:25,720
They just forced you
to go along with it, did they?
390
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:32,839
Good morning.
391
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:37,919
As a result of extensive work
undertaken yesterday and last night,
392
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:42,079
looking into the agreed asset list,
lifestyle expenses,
393
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,879
the needs and entitlements
of Ms. Duval as a mother,
394
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,920
we reject the 45-million-pounds
opening offer and today p...
395
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,999
And today propose a settlement figure
of 315 million pounds sterling,
396
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,479
which takes into account
Ms. Duval's expected shares in
397
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:08,519
and contributions to the creation
of Zephyr Communications
398
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,440
and all associated assets and companies.
399
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,799
Do you want to be the one
to reject that or shall I?
400
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,720
What did we say about spoilers?
401
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,359
No.
402
00:26:26,360 --> 00:26:29,319
Without any discussion
with Mr. Henderson?
403
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:30,480
No discussion required.
404
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,159
There's no need to discuss
with my client the concept
405
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,559
of him giving your client
315 million pounds sterling
406
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,079
when he doesn't have
315 million pounds sterling to give.
407
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,159
Our forensic accountants
would say otherwise.
408
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,279
Then now might be the time
to get rid of them.
409
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,680
But you do acknowledge the paucity
of yesterday's offer, Mr. Smallwood?
410
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,919
There is a significant gap here,
you'll agree.
411
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,759
More so, looking through these
than during mediation.
412
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,799
We'll adjust a little,
but I can't have us all distracted
413
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,399
by the number Singer's
just put out there.
414
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:03,520
No? Why?
415
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,919
Zephyr alone's recently
been valued at a billion pounds.
416
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,759
- and that figure's only gonna go--
- Valued by whom?
417
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,759
- Sorry?
- Just because you put it on a spreadsheet
418
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,680
and print it out doesn't make it true.
419
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,799
You appear to be confusing
420
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,079
our client's potential earnings
with his actual wealth.
421
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:19,280
That's right, of course.
422
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,639
Unless you're suggesting
your client has some right
423
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,799
to the future hypothetical
endeavors of Zephyr,
424
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,360
I suggest you adjust your thinking.
425
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,240
Perhaps, Singer,
426
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,079
I can have a slice
of your bonus next year,
427
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,799
or maybe you can share
428
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,120
in Ms. Ubosi's winnings
in the Christmas tombola.
429
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,119
Although these things have potential,
they do not as yet,
430
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:46,400
and in all likelihood
never will, exist.
431
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,040
Well, you've just had a sip of water.
432
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,240
The point here is to acknowledge
the fact that Zephyr, as a...
433
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,600
This is why Fiona got in
that specialist I was telling you about.
434
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,399
Maybe we could all sing a song.
435
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,479
- St. John.
- Serena.
436
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,559
Yeah, I think
we're a little off topic.
437
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:31,639
Agreed.
438
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,159
I don't know about you, Mr. Smallwood,
but we're here to make realistic proposals
439
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,399
at the end of a marriage
which saw your client move
440
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,440
with the support of our client
from obscurity to, well...
441
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,879
If Mr. Henderson has only amassed
442
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,519
the 45 million that you claim,
then perhaps we should
443
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,439
be ringing his billionaire,
"big boy friends"
444
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,959
and seeing, I don't know,
where he went wrong.
445
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,319
Yes or no,
is Mr. Henderson's share percentage
446
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,719
of Zephyr established
and confirmed by both parties?
447
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,800
- Yes.
- No.
448
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,159
The exact structure
of Zephyr has turned out
449
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,120
to be a lot more complicated
than first thought.
450
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:12,920
Hard to put into words.
451
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,199
If we are to find a way through this,
can I urge all parties to turn up
452
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,680
with agreed figures,
or even disputed figures?
453
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,999
I put that to you
most pointedly, Mr. Henderson,
454
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,560
It's your company after all.
455
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,919
You should know who owns it.
456
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:28,920
Of course.
457
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,480
Enjoy the rest of your day.
458
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,439
We were in Normandy.
We were walking on that beach
459
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:03,999
and we talked about Zephyr together.
460
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,279
- Shall we not do this here?
- It's the truth, Morgan.
461
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:07,600
I don't care who hears it.
462
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,760
Delays on the Central line, apparently.
463
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:14,720
Thank you.
464
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,119
I wish I could tell you
it wasn't personal,
465
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,080
but that's precisely what it is.
466
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,159
He hasn't stammered in years.
467
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,519
But it's in there.
And St. John knows it is.
468
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,080
And it's at its worst
when he points it out.
469
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:44,119
It's that old dynamic.
470
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,880
St. John's the boss that Nick
can never impress.
471
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,240
He's just making the most of that.
472
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:52,479
"Find the weak spot..."
473
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,280
- "...and never let go."
- That's what you taught me.
474
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,120
You were right to step in.
475
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:58,960
And when you did, it was...
476
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:00,760
it was very good.
477
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,320
Oh, and I keep meaning to say,
478
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,480
congratulations on the bump.
479
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,519
- No--
- Nick, the shoe shop called me back.
480
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,399
They said blisters are quite common.
Best thing is to push through it.
481
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,520
What, at 600 quid a bloody pair?
482
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:06,480
Someone had a good night.
483
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,040
Saeed!
484
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,320
What the fuck time do you call this?
485
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,920
No, I have not slept.
486
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,159
And yes, I am still a little bit drunk.
487
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,759
But you need to know this has
all been entirely for the cause.
488
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:37,880
Cause?
489
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,839
Henderson's pulling
a massive stunt with Zephyr shares.
490
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,279
How could you
possibly know that?
491
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:45,519
Michael Ancker.
492
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,199
He has an executive assistant,
who has an executive assistant,
493
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,719
who knows way too much.
494
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,959
Pub chat is useless to me, Saeed.
495
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,559
Oh, no, no, no.
That's why I went home with the pub chat.
496
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,599
He told me everything. He doesn't care.
He thinks Ancker's rhyming slang as it is.
497
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,959
Ancker wants to acquire Zephyr.
498
00:33:59,960 --> 00:34:01,279
He's been after it for months.
499
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,119
Henderson would never sell
to that maniac, certainly not now.
500
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:05,439
Well, then the message came
501
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,559
through to Ancker's office
telling them to hold fire.
502
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,839
Not because they don't want to sell,
503
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,799
but because they want to wait
to have that conversation
504
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,200
until after they've "cleaned house."
505
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,199
Message from who?
506
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,919
Well, Henderson might not want to sell,
507
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,519
but there's clearly people
at Zephyr who do.
508
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,999
The guy said that Henderson
is transferring his shares
509
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,959
to his colleagues
to deplete his net worth,
510
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,120
then they will transfer them
back post-settlement.
511
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,400
- Right?
- Yes!
512
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,960
You should get
wrecked more often.
513
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:41,400
Nick.
514
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,280
I'm not just a graduate.
515
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,720
I'm actually way better at this stuff
than I think you give me credit for and...
516
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,120
Yeah, just think you should hear that.
517
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,440
Budgie. Yeah.
518
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,320
Budgie, where are you?
519
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,920
So I'm making home visits now,
like the family GP.
520
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:22,680
Apologies. Let me get you a drink.
521
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:25,640
I...
522
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,359
I wrote her something.
523
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:30,360
Carla.
524
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,880
It's not gonna mess
with anything, it's just...
525
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,320
I wanted you to know
that I intend giving it to her.
526
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:45,959
Can you read my handwriting?
527
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,440
Unfortunately, yes.
528
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,640
I've decided we should play
this whole thing a bit straighter.
529
00:35:58,240 --> 00:35:59,319
A bit...?
530
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,120
Straighter, fairer.
531
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,039
I'm a very wealthy man.
532
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,199
I'm no angel, and I don't
want this upsetting her
533
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:07,400
any more than it has.
534
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,280
Serving her on the red carpet
was a particularly low blow.
535
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:13,440
The fuck are you doing?
536
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:15,640
St. John, I...
537
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,559
I'm not asking your opinion.
538
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,479
I'm ordering you, 300 million.
539
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,680
If that's what this takes,
then let's do it.
540
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,799
Save everyone the pain.
541
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:25,800
She set you up.
542
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,000
The girl at the awards show?
543
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,040
She was a honey trap.
544
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,039
Hang on, w--
545
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,959
Carla paid her to sleep with you.
546
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,400
Flora Monroe is the low blow.
547
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,040
There's an innuendo there
if we want it.
548
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:45,120
What?
549
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,359
No, no, no, no.
No, she was--
550
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,519
We won't be playing anything straighter
or fairer, Morgan. Why?
551
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,800
Because that's not
what Carla is doing.
552
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,280
Five minutes, Nick,
then I'm back to court.
553
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:23,039
If you want to freeze any asset movement,
you need a Mareva injunction.
554
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,119
- But would they know we're doing it?
- No, we can do it ex-parte.
555
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,280
These things are often urgent.
Is this urgent?
556
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:30,400
How urgent?
557
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:32,800
I see.
558
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,199
Nick, I must warn you,
559
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,079
if we spring this now,
Cathcarts going to get awfully grumpy.
560
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,479
They'll try and hit you
in other ways.
561
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:40,639
Take it to court, you mean?
562
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:41,919
Take it to court.
563
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:42,999
String it out.
564
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:44,079
Bleed you dry.
565
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,359
And they can do that, Nick.
They've got very deep pockets.
566
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,879
The financial implications
567
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,239
- for you could be--
- Oh, ruinous, I know, I know.
568
00:37:51,240 --> 00:37:53,960
I think they probably think you don't have
the stomach for the fight.
569
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,159
Our firm or me, personally?
570
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:58,800
Honestly, both.
571
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:00,439
What does Serena say?
572
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,320
- I haven't asked her yet.
- Then it's on you, Nick, I'm afraid.
573
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:05,719
If you want me to make
the application today,
574
00:38:05,720 --> 00:38:07,280
I'm afraid I need to know now.
575
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:12,520
Nick?
576
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,240
- This way.
- Thank you.
577
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,040
We know Henderson's offloading
his Zephyr shares to employees,
578
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,680
hiding assets he's intending
to reclaim post-settlement.
579
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,320
To stop that happening,
I am applying for a Mareva injunction.
580
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,040
And I think
you know we'll get it.
581
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,600
And you said all that in one go.
582
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,240
Well, let me say this.
583
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,639
You start lobbing
bits of paper about,
584
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,999
this late in the day,
and we'll end up in one place.
585
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,079
I know that.
586
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:10,159
Litigation.
587
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,280
I understand that.
588
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,919
And the last thing I want
to do is unsettle you,
589
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,559
but that is a very long
and very public
590
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,039
and very embarrassing way
for you to lose.
591
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,879
We both know Henderson
won't look good in court.
592
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:22,959
Do we?
593
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,719
- After all the things he's done.
- Done?
594
00:39:24,720 --> 00:39:26,640
Or done at your client's instigation?
595
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,239
What's that meant to mean?
596
00:39:29,240 --> 00:39:31,879
It means stop pretending to be
brave and make your offer
597
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,040
so we can both get on
with our evening.
598
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,640
The offer is 300 million.
599
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:38,839
Counter is sixty.
600
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,280
Two-eighty, and we have a...
601
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:45,720
deal.
602
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,319
Let me cut to best and final.
603
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,199
The highest he'll go is one-ten.
604
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,920
Whoops, there, I've said it.
605
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:57,000
Maybe that's the Glenmorangie talking,
but shake on that and it's over.
606
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,520
A score draw, away from home,
607
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,800
saves your wife
from bailing you out.
608
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:05,720
Again.
609
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,560
I'm lucky my wife is so formidable.
610
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:12,640
If you'd tried harder,
you could have kept her at Cathcarts.
611
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,839
Tricky when Beatrice
didn't really rate her,
612
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,119
vetoed her for partner,
if I remember correctly.
613
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,840
And she's usually right
about that sort of thing.
614
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,760
You see, you think you've got us
all pegged, don't you?
615
00:40:34,720 --> 00:40:38,639
You should know
that I am not the graduate
616
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,280
that first arrived at Borthwicks.
617
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,040
And I am better at this stuff
than you think I am.
618
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,439
But you still don't have
the balls to take this
619
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,880
to court, Singer,
and that, I am afraid,
620
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:53,520
will never change.
621
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,119
What-- what time is it?
622
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:43,120
It's late.
623
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:49,359
What's wrong?
624
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:50,760
Nothing. Everything's fine.
625
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,159
I just had Budgie get us
a Mareva injunction,
626
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,239
stop Morgan Henderson
diverting assets away
627
00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:00,319
- from Carla.
- What?
628
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,999
And then I went to St. John,
and he said that if we did that,
629
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,599
we could end up in court.
630
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:11,399
So we renegotiated,
and he improved his offer.
631
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:12,400
To what?
632
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,840
A hundred and ten million.
633
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:16,680
And you said?
634
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:20,840
I told him where to shove it.
635
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,760
I said, one-ten is nowhere near.
636
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:29,680
That we are stronger than he realized
and we are going to fight him.
637
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:31,880
We're gonna win.
638
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,360
Oh, it's fucking crazy.
639
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,560
And Bernard is going to kill me, but...
640
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:43,240
that's the call.
641
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:49,480
We're going to court.
642
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:51,720
We're going to court.
643
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,399
And that's it?
That's how you left it?
644
00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,640
No.
645
00:43:00,240 --> 00:43:03,839
I said, "If you make one more joke
about my stammer,
646
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,720
I'm going to put you through
the next fucking window."
647
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:07,840
Did you?
648
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:09,320
No.
649
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,800
But on the way home, I thought,
"Ugh, that is what I should have said."
650
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:39,640
Hi.
651
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,120
Here you are. Got a spare.
652
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:55,840
What's going on?
653
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,120
We're going to court, mate.
654
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,280
Do you know what that means?
655
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,159
It means Saeed is gonna
be fucking insufferable.
656
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,440
And Bernard's gonna lose
what's left of his shit.
657
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,080
Nora and Michael
reckon they're clean outta cash.
658
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:14,559
Anyway...
659
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,480
- Thank you.
- Of course.
660
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:36,359
Johnny.
661
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:37,640
Thought you could use
one of these, mate.
662
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:39,960
Thanks.
663
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:41,560
You...
664
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,279
not keen on the court plan, then?
665
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,000
It's not my circus,
not my monkeys.
666
00:44:49,720 --> 00:44:51,999
Carla knows who you are, yes?
667
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:53,199
Yes.
668
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,360
Yeah, I'm sending a litigation form
to that printer there.
669
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,720
She needs to sign that today.
670
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:01,640
There's envelopes on the side.
671
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:04,239
Printing it now. Take it to her,
672
00:45:04,240 --> 00:45:06,840
get her signature, bring it
back when it's done.
673
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:09,600
Did you hear what I said?
674
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:11,199
Back when it's done.
675
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,560
- Good man.
- All right, mate.
676
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,480
Good morning, Taylor and Byrne.
677
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,120
Serena said he's hiding assets.
678
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,920
It's like I have no idea
who I've been married to.
679
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,439
I slept next to this person
for ten years.
680
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,880
I have no idea who he is.
681
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,359
Listen, this isn't normal life, remember?
682
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:58,960
This is a crazy fucking fight.
683
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,920
So forget him and worry about you.
684
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:05,919
Going to court means no privacy,
685
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,319
everyone knows everything,
you're in the papers every day,
686
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:09,600
there's stuff online, there's...
687
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,320
shit about my son.
688
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,800
Just feels like there's no turning back.
689
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:20,600
No, Carla, look.
690
00:47:21,240 --> 00:47:24,040
They want to get you
what's right, what's fair.
691
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,000
That's the plan, no settling.
692
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,679
Yes, it's a fucking nightmare,
but you go in there with Budgie,
693
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:31,759
you get what you deserve,
694
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,840
and then you and Gabriel are set
for the rest of your lives.
695
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:37,880
Why are you
the one talking like this?
696
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,240
Someone so junior.
697
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,480
- It's not what--
- No, it's-- it's what I want.
698
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,440
- Sorry.
- It's fine.
699
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:14,840
You don't have to.
700
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:18,680
I want to.
