0:00:37.403,0:00:39.041
How would you feel[br]about taking something
0:00:39.109,0:00:40.442
other than the Tesla tonight?
0:00:40.509,0:00:42.610

Really?[br]That's where we're starting?
0:00:58.062,0:01:00.398
Well, if it's so simple,[br]just answer it.
0:01:00.466,0:01:02.934

I'm an enthusiast.
0:01:11.544,0:01:13.611

0:01:24.922,0:01:26.155
So why'd you let him have it?
0:01:26.223,0:01:27.723
Because it never hurts[br]to have a man

0:01:30.192,0:01:31.792
But if you're[br]just gonna give it to him,
0:01:31.860,0:01:33.427
why bother to compete first?
0:01:33.495,0:01:34.595
Because if I didn't beat him,
0:01:34.663,0:01:36.164

Shut up.[br]Listen.
0:02:23.645,0:02:24.812
You see these cars?
0:02:24.880,0:02:26.280
Yeah. They're awesome.
0:02:26.348,0:02:27.415
They suck.
0:02:27.483,0:02:29.250
They're nothing[br]compared to this.
0:02:29.318,0:02:30.719
Whoa.
0:02:30.786,0:02:33.121
The engine in this car[br]is made by McKernon Motors,
0:02:33.189,0:02:36.023
the industry standard[br]in Formula One.
0:02:36.091,0:02:38.059
In fact, they've won[br]more championships
0:02:38.127,0:02:39.727
than any other engine[br]on the planet.
0:02:39.795,0:02:41.128
How do you know all this?
0:02:41.196,0:02:43.030
Avery McKernon[br]was the first client
0:02:43.097,0:02:44.331
I ever brought into the firm.
0:02:44.398,0:02:46.533
- Was?[br]- He died three months ago.
0:02:46.601,0:02:47.700
Oh, God.[br]I'm so sorry--
0:02:47.768,0:02:48.868
Not the point.
0:02:48.936,0:02:50.803
McKernon's engines[br]and his company
0:02:50.871,0:02:53.439
have something in common--[br]They win, like me.
0:02:53.506,0:02:56.308
And because I win, I've been[br]promoted to senior partner,
0:02:56.376,0:02:58.144
which means you'll be handling[br]all their paperwork.
0:02:58.211,0:02:59.445
Oh, so you brought me here
0:02:59.513,0:03:00.880
to give me an appreciation[br]for the product.
0:03:00.947,0:03:02.482
No, I brought you here[br]to meet Robert Stensland,
0:03:02.550,0:03:03.750
the new CEO.
0:03:03.818,0:03:05.418
He'll want to put[br]your name with a face.
0:03:05.486,0:03:06.386
How do you know?
0:03:06.454,0:03:07.988
Because Robert's a tightwad,
0:03:08.055,0:03:09.189
and we don't bill you out[br]for nothing.

What? We're making[br]all this money.
0:03:18.132,0:03:19.199
We can't celebrate it?
0:03:19.266,0:03:22.268
Not in poor taste.
0:03:22.336,0:03:25.772
Dominic. Mike, I'd like[br]you to meet Dominic Barone,
0:03:25.839,0:03:28.274
the man responsible[br]for the design and production
0:03:28.342,0:03:29.608
of this engine.
0:03:29.676,0:03:31.343
This is my new associate,[br]Mike Ross.
0:03:31.411,0:03:32.745
He's just a kid.
0:03:32.812,0:03:34.112
Are you trying to steal his soul[br]before he hits puberty?
0:03:34.180,0:03:35.580
Okay, obviously...
0:03:35.648,0:03:37.316
You're still upset[br]about our labor negotiations.
0:03:37.383,0:03:38.784
My-- My workers[br]took a big hit.
0:03:38.852,0:03:40.486
And McKernon took a bigger one.
0:03:40.554,0:03:43.356
Both of which poised the company[br]to be strong for years.
0:03:43.424,0:03:44.757
I was always[br]straight with you about that.
0:03:44.825,0:03:46.725
Sophisticated words[br]for a guy who screwed us.
0:03:46.793,0:03:47.660
Look, I'm sorry[br]you feel that way,
0:03:47.727,0:03:48.994
but you have to admit,
0:03:49.062,0:03:53.432
I did have the courtesy[br]to do it from the front.
0:03:53.500,0:03:55.601
Wow. Yeah,[br]he really appreciates
0:03:55.669,0:03:56.936
what you've done[br]for the company.
0:03:57.004,0:03:58.371
Robert Stensland,
0:03:58.438,0:04:01.341
I'd like you to meet[br]your new associate, Mike Ross.
0:04:01.408,0:04:03.376
We're not paying him[br]what we pay you.
0:04:03.444,0:04:06.413
Nor should you, but I assure[br]you he's highly effective.
0:04:06.480,0:04:08.615
Well, I'll believe it[br]when I see it.
0:04:08.683,0:04:10.617
I had him read[br]your corporate lease last week.
0:04:10.685,0:04:12.452
Ask him anything.
0:04:12.520,0:04:16.055
That's a 300-page document.
0:04:16.124,0:04:19.459
Okay, what are the terms?
0:04:19.527,0:04:21.327
Okay, I have no idea[br]what you're talking about.
0:04:21.396,0:04:22.963
The named lessee
0:04:23.030,0:04:25.365
was the parent company,[br]Glendon Enterprises.
0:04:25.433,0:04:29.035
35,000 square feet[br]at 19 west 57th.
0:04:29.103,0:04:30.436
$80 a foot.
0:04:30.504,0:04:33.706
Expires in six months[br]with an option to extend.
0:04:33.774,0:04:35.208
Exercisable in 30 days.
0:04:35.276,0:04:38.378
- Who signed the lease?[br]- You did.
0:04:38.446,0:04:40.747
- What's my middle name?[br]- The letter "L."
0:04:40.814,0:04:43.383
What happens in the event[br]the company no longer exists?
0:04:43.451,0:04:44.651
That wasn't in the lease.
0:04:44.719,0:04:45.985
How can you be sure?
0:04:46.053,0:04:47.921
Because the lease[br]I read wasn't 300 pages.
0:04:47.989,0:04:49.423
It was 364.
0:04:49.491,0:04:51.426
And I can tell you what's on[br]any one of those pages,
0:04:51.493,0:04:52.760
but I can't tell you that.
0:04:52.828,0:04:54.395
That's how I can be sure.
0:04:54.463,0:04:55.796
Excellent.
0:04:55.864,0:04:57.732
You can get him started[br]on the new deal right away.
0:04:57.799,0:04:59.433
- New deal?[br]- Yeah.
0:04:59.501,0:05:02.770
I have found a buyer[br]willing to spend $200 million
0:05:02.838,0:05:04.305
for the ground underneath[br]the flagship factory.
0:05:04.373,0:05:05.940
Where are you moving[br]manufacturing?
0:05:06.007,0:05:07.308
Well, that's the beauty of it.
0:05:07.375,0:05:09.877
The real asset of[br]McKernon Motors is the name.
0:05:09.944,0:05:11.979
We move overseas,[br]we save ourselves a bundle.
0:05:12.046,0:05:13.747
Up front payout[br]while retaining the name
0:05:13.815,0:05:14.848
and maintaining[br]cash flow over time.
0:05:14.916,0:05:17.118
That's genius.[br]Exactly.
0:05:17.185,0:05:18.353
All right,[br]we'll take care of everything.
0:05:18.420,0:05:20.622
- Okay.[br]- All right.
0:05:20.689,0:05:24.126
- Thanks.[br]- Really?
0:05:24.194,0:05:26.028
Jesus.[br]I knew he was cheap.
0:05:26.096,0:05:27.130
I didn't realize[br]he was an idiot.
0:05:27.197,0:05:28.598
What are you talking about?
0:05:28.665,0:05:30.300
The asset's not the name.[br]It's the quality.
0:05:30.368,0:05:32.369
He moves overseas,[br]it's gonna kill the goose
0:05:32.436,0:05:33.436

0:05:33.504,0:05:34.671

0:05:35.840,0:05:37.574
emotionally attached[br]to the client.
0:05:37.642,0:05:38.975
I'm emotionally attached to me.
0:05:39.043,0:05:41.310

0:05:41.378,0:05:43.112
and my billables[br]would grow with it.
0:05:43.180,0:05:44.380

0:05:46.183,0:05:47.783
So?[br]What are you gonna do?
0:05:47.851,0:05:48.984
I'm not gonna do anything.
0:05:49.052,0:05:50.019

0:08:30.277,0:08:34.113
Okay. There is one more[br]order of business.
0:08:34.181,0:08:36.716
He's not here.
0:08:40.688,0:08:44.325
No.
0:08:44.393,0:08:45.693
Where is he?
0:08:45.761,0:08:47.128
He's at his senior partner[br]initiation.
0:08:47.195,0:08:49.063
Oh. That's great.[br]But let me ask you something.
0:08:49.131,0:08:51.532
What's the difference[br]between a senior partner
0:08:51.600,0:08:53.567
and...other partners?
0:08:53.635,0:08:55.202
Isn't that something[br]you should have been studying
0:08:55.270,0:08:58.004
when you were pretending[br]to go to Harvard?
0:08:58.072,0:09:00.907
Okay. Senior partners,[br]they buy into the firm.
0:09:00.974,0:09:02.074
They share in the profits,
0:09:02.142,0:09:03.275
but they also[br]have to put up equity.
0:09:03.343,0:09:06.111
So how much does it cost[br]to buy in?
0:09:06.179,0:09:09.614
$1/2 million...[br]Right now?
0:09:09.682,0:09:11.849
Harvey, you knew[br]what the buy-in was.
0:09:11.917,0:09:13.918
You knew today was initiation.
0:09:13.986,0:09:15.587
How could you not[br]have the money?
0:09:15.654,0:09:19.924
I didn't think[br]it was due today.
0:09:19.991,0:09:21.225
It's not due today, is it?
0:09:21.293,0:09:23.361
No. It's not.
0:09:26.198,0:09:29.001
Every man in this room[br]fell for exactly the same thing.
0:09:29.068,0:09:30.068
Does that include you?
0:09:30.136,0:09:31.737
No.[br]No, it doesn't.
0:09:31.805,0:09:34.006
Thank you, gentlemen.
0:09:44.920,0:09:47.187
Peanuts, gluten, strawberries.
0:09:47.255,0:09:48.989
What is this?[br]A shopping list?
0:09:49.056,0:09:50.590
No, it's just a list of foods[br]that I'm allergic to,
0:09:50.658,0:09:52.425
so when you select the venue,
0:09:52.493,0:09:54.394
these foods[br]are not to be on the menu.
0:09:54.461,0:09:55.695
A venue for what?
0:09:55.763,0:09:58.063
No one told you?
0:09:58.131,0:09:59.464
- No one told me.[br]- Oh, drats.
0:09:59.532,0:10:02.033
Well, a long-standing[br]Pearson Hardman tradition
0:10:02.101,0:10:03.268
is the rookie dinner,
0:10:03.336,0:10:05.437
which means you, the...
0:10:05.505,0:10:06.838
- Rookie. Yes.[br]- That's right.
0:10:06.906,0:10:11.010
Are to host a dinner[br]for your fellow associates.
0:10:11.077,0:10:12.945
Well, come on.[br]Don't look so blue.
0:10:13.013,0:10:14.279
Oh, it's okay.[br]It's really easy.
0:10:14.347,0:10:16.415
All you have to do[br]is just find a unique location
0:10:16.483,0:10:18.317
and then coordinate[br]with 50 other associates.
0:10:18.384,0:10:20.919
It's really simple.[br]No pressure.
0:10:20.986,0:10:22.153
And you're allergic to chicken?
0:10:22.221,0:10:25.156
No, I just don't like it.
0:10:25.224,0:10:27.892
Oh, by the way,[br]what was so important
0:10:27.960,0:10:29.861
that you had to see Harvey[br]before you came to see me?
0:10:29.928,0:10:31.262
Louis,[br]Harvey doesn't really--
0:10:31.330,0:10:33.664
Can we-- Can we-- Can we--[br]Can we just-- Shut up.
0:10:33.732,0:10:34.999
Okay.
0:10:35.067,0:10:36.934
Let me just get something[br]straight, okay?
0:10:37.002,0:10:38.035
When I ask you a question,
0:10:38.103,0:10:41.205
I just expect an answer.
0:10:41.273,0:10:44.608
Uh...
0:10:44.675,0:10:45.843
McKernon Motors.
0:10:45.910,0:10:48.346
I was working[br]on the due diligence.
0:10:48.414,0:10:54.086
And why would that require you[br]to look at the bylaws?
0:10:54.154,0:10:55.855
State law requires[br]a summary be prepared
0:10:55.923,0:10:57.190
in the event of a sale.
0:10:57.258,0:10:59.059
Privately held corporations[br]are exempted.
0:10:59.127,0:11:01.161
Not if the sale[br]exceeds 150 million.
0:11:01.229,0:11:03.798
According to who?
0:11:07.169,0:11:09.737
The state's website.
0:11:09.805,0:11:12.140
I like to be thorough.
0:11:13.743,0:11:16.177
Well, put it there, buddy.
0:11:16.245,0:11:17.646
Are you fricking serious?
0:11:22.018,0:11:24.453
I understand Stensland[br]is throwing a large amount
0:11:24.521,0:11:27.256
of legal work our way with the[br]McKernon Motors factory sale.
0:11:27.324,0:11:28.291
How'd you know that?
0:11:28.359,0:11:29.392
I hear things.
0:11:29.460,0:11:30.527
You taking care of him?
0:11:30.594,0:11:31.795
I am.
0:11:31.863,0:11:34.064
By the way, for when it is due.
0:11:34.132,0:11:35.399
What's this?
0:11:35.466,0:11:38.136
It's a cashier's check[br]for $500,000.
0:11:39.838,0:11:41.773
You had this the whole time.
0:11:41.841,0:11:45.009
I've had the money since I[br]set my sights on senior partner.
0:11:52.450,0:11:54.050
Nice of you to finally make it.
0:11:54.118,0:11:55.985
Why does everybody[br]keep saying that?
0:11:56.053,0:11:57.319
Because you're[br]supposed to be here
0:11:57.387,0:11:58.354
when you're supposed[br]to be here.
0:11:58.421,0:11:59.822
Doesn't seem to apply to you.
0:11:59.889,0:12:01.757
I'm not the topic[br]of this conversation.
0:12:01.824,0:12:04.326
Now what'd you find me[br]on McKernon Motors?
0:12:04.394,0:12:06.729
The board can't vote[br]for at least 24 hours
0:12:06.797,0:12:08.531
after the CEO presents a deal
0:12:08.598,0:12:09.899
involving the sale[br]of company land.
0:12:09.967,0:12:12.035
But Stensland already[br]presented it to the board.
0:12:12.103,0:12:14.572
Right, but Stensland isn't CEO.
0:12:14.639,0:12:17.741
I wrote those bylaws myself.[br]He's CEO.
0:12:17.809,0:12:21.780
Hmm.[br]Page 238, clause 137
0:12:21.847,0:12:24.216
states if the CEO dies,
0:12:24.284,0:12:26.184
an interim CEO[br]will be appointed
0:12:26.252,0:12:27.786
until the board[br]convenes an election vote,
0:12:27.853,0:12:30.021
which can't be called[br]till the next fiscal quarter,
0:12:30.089,0:12:31.989
in this case next Thursday.
0:12:32.057,0:12:34.725
So they can't vote him in[br]until Thursday?
0:12:34.793,0:12:36.026
Thursday.
0:12:36.094,0:12:37.828
Okay.
0:12:37.896,0:12:39.596
Well, prepare the due diligence
0:12:39.664,0:12:40.931
for me to take to Stensland,
0:12:40.998,0:12:42.398
but I don't want anything[br]ready to sign.
0:12:42.466,0:12:43.933
- Where are you going?[br]- Out.
0:12:44.001,0:12:45.701
I have until Thursday[br]to find a new CEO.
0:12:45.769,0:12:47.470
- Huh.[br]- What?
0:12:47.538,0:12:50.340
Oh, nothing.[br]Uh, you know, just six hours,
0:12:50.408,0:12:53.543
1,500 pages, and I, uh,
0:12:53.611,0:12:55.146
I found your mistake.
0:12:55.213,0:12:57.648
Yeah, you found[br]the one mistake I made
0:12:57.716,0:13:00.485
while drafting those bylaws[br]a dozen years ago
0:13:00.553,0:13:02.153
when I was two years[br]younger than you.
0:13:02.221,0:13:03.555
A mistake, by the way,
0:13:03.623,0:13:05.591
that's gonna help me[br]get rid of Stensland.
0:13:05.659,0:13:07.493
Mistake.
0:13:24.938,0:13:27.005
Excuse me, Mr. Specter?
0:13:27.072,0:13:28.840
I was wondering if you might[br]need a hand sometime
0:13:28.908,0:13:29.874
with one of your matters.
0:13:29.942,0:13:30.908
Uh, any one.
0:13:30.976,0:13:32.343
Well, Allen--
0:13:32.411,0:13:33.611
It's Aaron.
0:13:33.679,0:13:37.148
I think that says it all,[br]don't you?
0:13:37.215,0:13:39.416
What are you doing?
0:13:39.484,0:13:41.251
Uh, I'm looking[br]for a restaurant.
0:13:41.319,0:13:42.853
Where did you go[br]for your rookie dinner?
0:13:42.921,0:13:44.488
I came into the league[br]a sophomore.
0:13:44.556,0:13:45.722
You better not be[br]prioritizing that
0:13:45.790,0:13:46.956
over McKernon Motors.
0:13:47.024,0:13:48.391
I still need something[br]to stall Stensland.
0:13:48.459,0:13:51.160
It's right here.
0:13:51.228,0:13:52.729
What are you[br]so irritated about?
0:13:52.796,0:13:55.164
I spent a day[br]with a top headhunter I know
0:13:55.232,0:13:57.534
who couldn't produce one[br]legitimate CEO candidate
0:13:57.602,0:13:58.669
by Thursday.
0:13:58.736,0:13:59.770
What about[br]that Dominic Barone guy
0:13:59.838,0:14:01.105
who runs production?
0:14:01.172,0:14:02.707
You said he was responsible[br]for the engines,
0:14:02.775,0:14:04.275
and he clearly cares[br]about the workers.
0:14:04.343,0:14:06.077
No, he's not the guy.
0:14:06.145,0:14:07.780
Oh, you're scared[br]you can't convince him
0:14:07.847,0:14:09.515
because he hates you.[br]I get it.
0:14:09.582,0:14:10.783
Nice try.
0:14:10.850,0:14:12.118
You know you can't[br]host your dinner there.
0:14:12.185,0:14:14.553
That's a Wachtell, Lipton,[br]Klein restaurant.
0:14:14.621,0:14:16.855
Okay. Fine.
0:14:16.923,0:14:18.724
What about this place?
0:14:18.792,0:14:20.893
Yeah, that'd be great[br]if it was 2004.
0:14:20.960,0:14:22.027
Oh, my God.
0:14:22.095,0:14:26.165
Why does any of this matter?[br]God.
0:14:26.233,0:14:28.900
You see that guy[br]over there by the fax?
0:14:28.968,0:14:33.471
Take a good look.
0:14:33.539,0:14:34.973
He's never gonna make partner.
0:14:35.040,0:14:36.808
Okay. Let me guess.
0:14:36.876,0:14:39.111
Because he threw[br]a lousy rookie dinner?
0:14:39.179,0:14:41.146
No, because he doesn't get it.
0:14:41.214,0:14:42.782
Get what?
0:14:42.849,0:14:45.952
He doesn't get that doing[br]good work isn't the whole job.
0:14:46.020,0:14:47.520
Part of getting it
0:14:47.588,0:14:49.322
is that things like the dinner[br]actually matter,
0:14:49.390,0:14:51.425
even when[br]you don't think they do.
0:14:51.492,0:14:52.860
Look,[br]you were giving me shit
0:14:52.927,0:14:54.128
this morning because[br]I come and go when I want to.
0:14:54.195,0:14:55.429
You know why I can do that?
0:14:55.497,0:14:58.031
Because when I got here,[br]I dominated.
0:14:58.099,0:15:00.266
They thought I worked[br]100 hours a day.
0:15:00.334,0:15:02.602
Now, no matter[br]what time I get in,
0:15:02.669,0:15:05.905
nobody questions my ability[br]to get the job done.
0:15:05.973,0:15:07.407
Get it through your head.
0:15:07.475,0:15:09.275
First impressions last.
0:15:09.343,0:15:10.977
You start[br]behind the eight ball,
0:15:11.044,0:15:12.879
you'll never get in front.
0:15:24.359,0:15:26.159
- Hey, you busy?[br]- It's 7:00.
0:15:26.227,0:15:28.295
I'm not here[br]'cause I like the view.
0:15:28.363,0:15:29.730
And don't misunderstand me.
0:15:29.798,0:15:31.598
When I say "The View,"[br]I'm referring to your face.
0:15:31.666,0:15:33.300
That's funny,[br]because I'm hideous.
0:15:33.368,0:15:35.335
- What's up?[br]- You're a foodie, right?
0:15:35.403,0:15:36.436
Why do you say that?
0:15:36.504,0:15:37.772
Because you're the only person
0:15:37.840,0:15:39.240
I've ever seen order[br]a shrimp, red pepper,
0:15:39.308,0:15:40.341
and goat cheese pizza.
0:15:40.409,0:15:41.977
Well, right,[br]but without the pepper,
0:15:42.045,0:15:43.779
what connects the goat cheese[br]and the shrimp?
0:15:43.847,0:15:45.314
I'm a foodie.
0:15:45.382,0:15:47.117
Okay, so I need your help[br]finding a restaurant
0:15:47.184,0:15:48.218
for the rookie dinner.
0:15:48.286,0:15:49.520
Well, that's unfortunate,
0:15:49.587,0:15:51.055
but I'm swamped,[br]and I don't have time
0:15:51.122,0:15:52.256
to teach you about cuisine.
0:15:52.324,0:15:53.624
Well, no,[br]don't make me remind you
0:15:53.692,0:15:55.393
that you owe me one.[br]How's that?
0:15:55.460,0:15:57.294
You told Louis I was working[br]on Harvey's case before his.
0:15:57.362,0:15:58.830
Because you told me to.
0:15:58.897,0:16:00.465
Well, now I'm telling you[br]to help me with my dinner.
0:16:00.532,0:16:01.566
Mm.
0:16:01.633,0:16:03.634
- You-- Okay.[br]- Good luck with that.
0:16:03.702,0:16:05.937
Not gonna help me[br]with my dinner.
0:16:06.005,0:16:09.006
Now I'm talking to myself.
0:16:11.577,0:16:12.876
Yeah, grammy.
0:16:12.944,0:16:14.345
No, I told you I was coming.
0:16:14.412,0:16:20.317
I'm-- I'm on my way, okay?[br]Yeah.
0:16:20.385,0:16:23.786
Um, 15 minutes.
0:16:23.854,0:16:26.088
Okay. Bye.[br]Hey, what are you--
0:16:26.156,0:16:28.491
Okay, what was that for?
0:16:28.558,0:16:29.758
If you cared about me,
0:16:29.826,0:16:31.126
you would have told me[br]what Trevor was up to
0:16:31.194,0:16:32.094
a long time ago.
0:16:32.161,0:16:33.495
I was trying to protect you.
0:16:33.563,0:16:35.263
How is hiding the fact
0:16:35.331,0:16:37.666
that my boyfriend[br]is selling weed protecting me?
0:16:37.734,0:16:39.335
You want to know the truth?
0:16:39.402,0:16:42.338
Your boyfriend also happens[br]to be my best friend, all right?
0:16:42.406,0:16:43.373
I didn't feel[br]like ratting him out.
0:16:43.440,0:16:44.941
If you were really his friend,
0:16:45.009,0:16:46.777
you wouldn't just stand by[br]and let him throw his life away.
0:16:46.844,0:16:48.445
Let him? Let--
0:16:48.513,0:16:50.715
I've never let Trevor[br]do anything. Have you met him?
0:16:50.782,0:16:53.284
Trevor listens to you,[br]and he needs you right now.
0:16:53.352,0:16:54.519
Oh, my God.
0:16:54.587,0:16:56.321
He is throwing his life away,
0:16:56.388,0:16:58.923
and you ditched us.
0:16:58.991,0:17:02.127
Both.
0:17:02.194,0:17:04.560
Like we didn't mean[br]anything to you.
0:17:09.068,0:17:11.703
I'm...I'm late.
0:17:32.224,0:17:34.792
Louis.[br]What are you doing here?
0:17:34.860,0:17:37.028
Hi.[br]Uh, Stensland called.
0:17:37.096,0:17:39.631
And apparently the diligence[br]wasn't proceeding apace.
0:17:39.698,0:17:40.832
He called you?
0:17:40.900,0:17:41.666
Yeah, he called me,[br]I called him,
0:17:41.734,0:17:42.835
what's the difference?
0:17:42.902,0:17:43.735
The paperwork[br]was taking too long,
0:17:43.803,0:17:45.170
and I got it done.
0:17:45.238,0:17:47.340
I suggest you stay[br]the hell away from my client.
0:17:47.407,0:17:49.910
Harvey.[br]Glad you could make it.
0:17:49.977,0:17:51.044
We were about[br]to sign the papers.
0:17:51.112,0:17:51.912
I got word back at the office.
0:17:51.979,0:17:53.080
I just came to see how Louis
0:17:53.147,0:17:55.682
was getting around the bylaws.
0:17:55.750,0:17:57.484
I...don't know.
0:17:57.551,0:17:59.920
Ah...
0:17:59.988,0:18:00.954
I'm at somewhat of a loss.
0:18:01.022,0:18:02.356
Robert, I'm sorry.
0:18:02.423,0:18:04.191
This is what was holding up[br]your due diligence.
0:18:04.258,0:18:06.026
Technically,[br]you're still interim CEO
0:18:06.093,0:18:08.028
until the board[br]votes you in on Thursday.
0:18:08.095,0:18:09.296
If protocol isn't followed,
0:18:09.363,0:18:10.964
it leaves you with huge[br]litigation exposure.
0:18:11.032,0:18:12.299
That's right.
0:18:12.367,0:18:15.502
Well, I imagine[br]we should hold off, then.
0:18:15.570,0:18:17.504
Please don't blame Louis.[br]It's my fault.
0:18:17.572,0:18:20.374
We usually have senior partners[br]oversee transactions like this
0:18:20.442,0:18:22.275
because junior partners,[br]they tend to miss things.
0:18:22.343,0:18:23.277
See you Thursday?
0:18:23.344,0:18:25.079
One second.
0:18:25.146,0:18:26.413
Uh, just so you know,
0:18:26.481,0:18:28.282
you were a junior partner[br]until recently.
0:18:28.350,0:18:30.217
There's a reason[br]I'm not anymore.
0:18:30.285,0:18:32.119
Okay. Take it easy.
0:18:32.187,0:18:34.755
So what if you took a trip[br]to Russia with another man?
0:18:34.823,0:18:36.890
I mean, that was before[br]you met grandpa Jimmy, right?
0:18:36.958,0:18:39.125
He didn't care[br]it was before I met him.
0:18:39.193,0:18:40.627
Never shut up about it.
0:18:40.695,0:18:42.529
So what was[br]this other guy's name?
0:18:42.597,0:18:44.332
Gregory mind your own business.
0:18:44.399,0:18:46.233
Ooh.
0:18:46.301,0:18:48.268
So, Michael, this has been fun.
0:18:48.336,0:18:50.137
Now why don't you stop[br]beating around the bush
0:18:50.204,0:18:55.343
and tell me what's going on.
0:18:55.410,0:18:57.645
Trevor.
0:18:57.713,0:18:59.347
It's Trevor.[br]It's always Trevor.
0:18:59.415,0:19:01.550
He's gotten himself[br]into some really bad...
0:19:01.617,0:19:04.853
stuff, and I think he needs[br]my help to get out of it,
0:19:04.921,0:19:07.189
but I've been under[br]so much pressure,
0:19:07.257,0:19:09.258
and I know you've always told[br]me to be there for people...
0:19:09.325,0:19:10.859
No, no, listen to me.
0:19:10.927,0:19:12.928
Screw Trevor.[br]What?
0:19:12.996,0:19:14.096
You're moving forward,
0:19:14.164,0:19:15.764
and he'll do whatever he can
0:19:15.832,0:19:17.232
to keep you where you are.
0:19:17.300,0:19:18.233
Yeah, but...
0:19:18.301,0:19:19.301
But no buts.
0:19:19.369,0:19:20.836
That kid is an anchor.
0:19:20.904,0:19:24.673
You need to cut him loose.
0:19:24.740,0:19:27.875
- Whoa.[br]- You owe me 50 bucks.
0:19:38.219,0:19:40.988
What's going on[br]with Robert Stensland?
0:19:41.055,0:19:42.422
What did Louis tell you?
0:19:42.490,0:19:44.892
You're not dealing with Louis.[br]You're dealing with me.
0:19:44.960,0:19:46.126
What are you hiding?
0:19:46.194,0:19:47.327
Nothing.[br]I looked through the bylaws
0:19:47.395,0:19:48.962
and precluded[br]potential litigation.
0:19:49.030,0:19:51.898
You looked at the bylaws[br]for a tactical reason,
0:19:51.966,0:19:52.999
and I want to know what it is.
0:19:58.739,0:20:00.006
I want him out.
0:20:00.073,0:20:02.274
That is not your call.[br]You are an attorney.
0:20:02.342,0:20:04.876
This is the internal business[br]of McKernon Motors.
0:20:04.944,0:20:06.645
Look, McKernon had a plan,
0:20:06.713,0:20:08.280
and I didn't spend[br]a decade shaping it
0:20:08.347,0:20:09.614
to let this fool throw it away.
0:20:09.682,0:20:10.915
McKernon is dead.
0:20:10.983,0:20:12.183
So what?[br]Doesn't mean the plan's no good.
0:20:12.251,0:20:14.051
You fail, we'll get fired.
0:20:14.119,0:20:15.386
He moves overseas,
0:20:15.454,0:20:17.155
our billables ll be gone[br]in five years, anyway.
0:20:17.223,0:20:18.824
Better five years than nothing.
0:20:18.892,0:20:20.426
You know what?[br]That's Stensland's attitude,
0:20:20.493,0:20:22.762
and it's a losing one.
0:20:22.829,0:20:26.099
Harvey, I don't think[br]you have any business
0:20:26.167,0:20:28.068
telling that man[br]how to run his company,
0:20:28.136,0:20:29.937
but I know you don't[br]have any business
0:20:30.005,0:20:31.505
telling me how to run mine.
0:20:31.573,0:20:33.141
You are a senior partner.
0:20:33.208,0:20:35.243
You are not[br]a gunslinger anymore.
0:20:35.311,0:20:38.112
Back off Stensland[br]and close the deal.
0:20:51.284,0:20:52.585
I need you to prepare
0:20:52.653,0:20:54.654
the draft CEO candidate speech[br]for Thursday.
0:20:54.721,0:20:55.989
Well, I thought you[br]were supposed to back off.
0:20:56.056,0:20:57.323
Yeah, I'm supposed to do[br]a lot of things.
0:20:57.391,0:20:59.226
I'll call you with the plan[br]on my way back.
0:20:59.294,0:21:00.461
From where?
0:21:00.528,0:21:01.896
From convincing[br]the man who hates me
0:21:01.963,0:21:03.964
to do what I say.[br]Oh, right.
0:21:04.032,0:21:06.433
You mean the guy I suggested[br]you go to in the first place.
0:21:06.501,0:21:07.768
Do you remember that whole
0:21:07.836,0:21:08.769
getting it thing[br]I was talking to you about?
0:21:08.837,0:21:10.304
What, I can't even gloat?
0:21:10.372,0:21:12.872
Gloating's fine.[br]You just have to not suck at it.
0:21:12.940,0:21:15.909
Okay.[br]Thank you. So much.
0:21:15.977,0:21:17.444
That hurt.
0:21:23.217,0:21:24.451
Hey, Ross.
0:21:24.519,0:21:25.919
You left your search[br]for the rookie dinner
0:21:25.987,0:21:26.920
on your computer.
0:21:26.988,0:21:27.921
Why don't you just save time
0:21:27.989,0:21:29.556
and take us to Friday's?
0:21:29.623,0:21:30.957
Ooh, ooh, somebody's mad.
0:21:31.025,0:21:33.059
Devon, looking at my computer
0:21:33.127,0:21:35.060
is a violation of exactly seven
0:21:35.128,0:21:36.695
hostile workplace[br]environment statutes.
0:21:36.763,0:21:38.830
What are you gonna do?[br]Sue me?
0:21:38.898,0:21:40.098
No.[br]No, no, no.
0:21:40.166,0:21:41.466
I'm just gonna use it[br]as legal cover
0:21:41.534,0:21:43.534
if I decide to kick your ass.
0:21:53.044,0:21:54.445
Dominic.
0:21:54.512,0:21:56.113
Harvey,[br]what are you doing here?
0:21:56.181,0:21:58.015
Our contract's good[br]for two more years.
0:21:58.083,0:22:00.784
I need a word.[br]In private.
0:22:00.852,0:22:02.019
Excuse me, Joe.
0:22:02.086,0:22:03.787
Make it fast,[br]'cause this is a place
0:22:03.855,0:22:05.089
where people actually[br]work for a living.
0:22:05.156,0:22:06.824
Well, keep in mind[br]people are watching.
0:22:06.892,0:22:08.759
Just try to keep[br]your expression neutral.
0:22:08.827,0:22:09.960
You know, they don't teach
0:22:10.028,0:22:11.195
deceptive tactics[br]where I come from.
0:22:11.263,0:22:12.130
Then you're gonna learn[br]under fire.
0:22:12.198,0:22:14.065
Stensland's shutting you down.
0:22:14.133,0:22:15.467
What? Why?
0:22:15.535,0:22:16.936
For money.
0:22:17.003,0:22:19.572
He's got a buyer for the land[br]under the factory.
0:22:19.640,0:22:21.274
Why are you coming to me?
0:22:21.342,0:22:23.310
Because the only way[br]to stop him
0:22:23.378,0:22:25.078
is for you[br]to challenge him as CEO.
0:22:25.146,0:22:26.279
What?[br]Are you crazy?
0:22:26.347,0:22:27.547
You've got a management title.
0:22:27.615,0:22:28.882
That I choose[br]not to identify with.
0:22:28.950,0:22:29.949
You run the factory.
0:22:30.017,0:22:31.251
Which I never left,
0:22:31.318,0:22:32.619
'cause I have no taste[br]for boardroom politics.
0:22:32.687,0:22:34.221
You've been here since day one.
0:22:34.289,0:22:35.722
You know the product[br]inside out.
0:22:35.790,0:22:36.990
These workers,[br]they respect you.
0:22:37.058,0:22:38.892
Pew, that's a lot of smoke.
0:22:38.960,0:22:40.561
How many people[br]did you go to before me?
0:22:40.629,0:22:42.196
- Seven.[br]- Right.
0:22:42.264,0:22:44.332
I never said[br]you were my prom queen.
0:22:44.399,0:22:45.766
Look, I want to win, okay?
0:22:45.834,0:22:47.268
I went to those other people
0:22:47.335,0:22:48.936
because they were better[br]suited to get past the board,
0:22:49.004,0:22:50.738
not better suited for the job.
0:22:50.806,0:22:52.907
Those are the facts[br]whether you like it or not.
0:22:52.975,0:22:53.941
And why should I trust you?
0:22:54.009,0:22:55.276
Because if you don't,
0:22:55.344,0:22:57.512
there aren't any jobs[br]left to negotiate over.
0:22:57.579,0:22:59.614
You and the factory,[br]you're finished.
0:23:14.096,0:23:15.263
What are you working on?
0:23:15.331,0:23:17.632
Um, nothing.[br]Just some stuff for Harvey. Why?
0:23:17.700,0:23:19.134
Wrap it up.[br]Louis Litt wants to see you.
0:23:19.202,0:23:21.136
This time[br]he doesn't want to wait.
0:23:33.150,0:23:34.485
Furthermore,
0:23:34.553,0:23:36.854
I feel that with[br]the proper strategic
0:23:36.922,0:23:39.791
and synergistic alliances[br]moving forward--
0:23:39.858,0:23:41.827
I have to actually believe[br]what you're saying.
0:23:41.895,0:23:43.796
They're just platitudes[br]that don't mean anything.
0:23:43.863,0:23:45.297
Yes, they do.[br]Synergistic alliances
0:23:45.365,0:23:47.065
mean you form relationships
0:23:47.133,0:23:48.700
to get the cost down[br]and your product out.
0:23:48.768,0:23:50.335
It's never gonna work.
0:23:50.403,0:23:51.570
Well, it better goddamn work.
0:23:51.637,0:23:53.105
My ass is on the line.[br]What about my ass?
0:23:53.172,0:23:54.740
If it wasn't attached[br]to your thick head,
0:23:54.808,0:23:56.642
maybe we wouldn't be[br]having this problem.
0:23:56.709,0:23:57.976
I'm sorry I'm not[br]as well practiced
0:23:58.044,0:24:00.445
at corporate double speak[br]as you'd like,
0:24:00.513,0:24:03.181
but I've been busting my ass[br]on this for two hours.
0:24:03.249,0:24:04.916
So if you're not happy[br]with my progress,
0:24:04.983,0:24:09.187
then why don't you[br]get the hell out?
0:24:09.254,0:24:13.324
He doesn't leave[br]without getting it.
0:24:16.461,0:24:18.596
Son of a bitch.
0:24:21.466,0:24:23.500
You're not gonna pick it up?
0:24:23.568,0:24:25.135
Why should I?[br]Never gonna get it.
0:24:25.203,0:24:28.639
You're right.
0:24:28.706,0:24:33.378
Hey, can I ask you something?
0:24:33.445,0:24:37.749
What's your engine design[br]philosophy?
0:24:37.817,0:24:40.085
Perfectly balanced[br]power and durability.
0:24:40.153,0:24:44.122
Okay. Why don't you favor[br]power like Bronson does?
0:24:44.190,0:24:46.124
Because drivers are limited[br]to eight engines a season,
0:24:46.192,0:24:47.425
and Bronson's don't last.
0:24:47.493,0:24:48.660
Well, so you would[br]stack your engines
0:24:48.727,0:24:50.094
up against Bronson's, then?
0:24:50.162,0:24:51.962
Uh, I have stacked[br]my engines up against Bronson
0:24:52.030,0:24:53.430
and everyone else's[br]in the world,
0:24:53.498,0:24:55.198
and mine win.[br]Why?
0:24:55.266,0:24:56.633
Because I make sure
0:24:56.700,0:24:58.835
they're designed better[br]than anyone else's in the world
0:24:58.902,0:25:00.436
from the day[br]that they're conceived
0:25:00.504,0:25:01.570
to the day they're born.
0:25:01.638,0:25:02.872
And that's why people buy them.
0:25:02.939,0:25:04.373
Goddamn right.
0:25:04.441,0:25:06.475
And that's the speech[br]you're gonna give.
0:25:19.155,0:25:20.889
Good lawyer, bad lawyer, baby.
0:25:20.957,0:25:22.859
Worked like a charm.
0:25:22.926,0:25:25.461
Come on.[br]You know you want it.
0:25:25.529,0:25:27.297
There it is.[br]Told you.
0:25:27.365,0:25:28.431
Someone doesn't like you,
0:25:28.499,0:25:29.766
you use it against them.
0:25:29.834,0:25:31.035
Or, in this case, for them.
0:25:31.102,0:25:33.003
I didn't do this for Dominic.
0:25:33.071,0:25:34.438
I did it[br]to get rid of Stensland.
0:25:34.506,0:25:37.542
Wow. Have you ever considered[br]writing for Hallmark?
0:25:37.610,0:25:40.045
Many times. Yeah.
0:25:40.113,0:25:42.915
Congrats.
0:25:42.982,0:25:45.417
Looking good.
0:25:57.963,0:25:58.863
Hey.
0:25:58.931,0:26:00.064
I said don't be late.
0:26:00.132,0:26:02.133
Late? I'm not late.
0:26:02.201,0:26:04.002
When you host your dinner here,
0:26:04.069,0:26:06.471
not being late means getting[br]here a half hour early.
0:26:06.538,0:26:09.441
Aha. So what made you[br]change your mind?
0:26:09.508,0:26:12.443
The food items are samples[br]to help you select your menu,
0:26:12.511,0:26:16.748
so since I could never really[br]afford to eat here myself...
0:26:16.815,0:26:18.316
Mm.
0:26:18.384,0:26:19.551
Mm.
0:26:19.618,0:26:21.285
Okay, start there.
0:26:21.353,0:26:22.353
- Try that?[br]- Yes.
0:26:22.421,0:26:23.320
It looks kind of funny.
0:26:23.388,0:26:24.355
So does an egg roll.
0:26:24.422,0:26:25.589
I don't accept that premise.
0:26:25.657,0:26:27.458
You want my help or not?
0:26:34.998,0:26:35.932
Ugh. What is that?
0:26:35.999,0:26:37.133
Squid.
0:26:37.200,0:26:41.002
I-- I think[br]it's still moving.
0:26:41.070,0:26:44.972
That's what I'm talking about.
0:26:45.040,0:26:46.341
Mm.
0:26:46.409,0:26:47.576
I don't get it.
0:26:47.644,0:26:49.511
How do you have no appreciation[br]for fine food?
0:26:49.579,0:26:52.448
Mm. We didn't have a lot[br]of money growing up.
0:26:52.516,0:26:54.050
I don't know.
0:26:54.118,0:26:56.486
I guess I'm just comfortable[br]with what I'm comfortable with.
0:26:56.554,0:26:58.422
That is the exact[br]opposite of me.
0:26:58.489,0:27:00.758
I've-- I've always[br]loved new experiences.
0:27:00.825,0:27:02.292
And your parents?
0:27:02.360,0:27:03.828
They're loaded.
0:27:03.895,0:27:07.465
Mm. So then what do you need[br]a free meal for?
0:27:07.532,0:27:09.667
I want to live on what I make.
0:27:09.734,0:27:11.201
Mm.
0:27:11.269,0:27:13.570
- What?[br]- Nothing.
0:27:13.638,0:27:15.505
I was just thinking about[br]Dominic for a second.
0:27:15.573,0:27:18.708
And then I realized[br]this is the first time in weeks
0:27:18.775,0:27:20.309
that I haven't been[br]thinking about work.
0:27:20.377,0:27:22.211
That's what new[br]experiences do for you.
0:27:22.279,0:27:26.348
Being a foodie doesn't mean[br]only liking fancy food.
0:27:26.415,0:27:28.050
Means having[br]the courage to try it.
0:27:28.117,0:27:30.218
And then you get to serve[br]what you like.
0:27:30.286,0:27:31.953
Except strawberries, peanuts,
0:27:32.021,0:27:33.155
gluten, and chicken.
0:27:33.222,0:27:34.522
Okay, why not those things?
0:27:34.590,0:27:36.224
Because Louis is an asshole.
0:27:36.291,0:27:38.393
If you can't serve things[br]just 'cause Louis is an asshole,
0:27:38.461,0:27:40.829
you're not gonna have[br]that many choices.
0:27:40.897,0:27:41.830
Good point.
0:27:48.537,0:27:52.440
So what really[br]made you change your mind?
0:27:52.508,0:27:55.376
Pity.
0:27:55.444,0:27:56.978
I'll take it.
0:28:07.757,0:28:10.826
Driver, taketh me[br]to Williamsburg.
0:28:13.495,0:28:14.496
It's Jenny.
0:28:14.563,0:28:16.397
Trevor told me[br]you talked to him,
0:28:16.465,0:28:17.899
and he's gonna stop.
0:28:17.967,0:28:18.900
Thanks, Mike.
0:28:18.968,0:28:20.068
Hold on.
0:28:20.135,0:28:22.103
Change of destination.
0:28:24.908,0:28:25.874
Trevor.
0:28:25.942,0:28:28.176
What are you doing here?
0:28:28.244,0:28:31.446
Can we talk for a minute?
0:28:31.514,0:28:33.615
Yeah.
0:28:37.820,0:28:40.955
I know you lied to Jenny[br]about us talking.
0:28:41.023,0:28:42.123
You never should have told her
0:28:42.191,0:28:43.592
I was dealing[br]in the first place.
0:28:43.660,0:28:45.794
I never should have had[br]to hide it in the first place.
0:28:47.397,0:28:51.000
Look, Trevor, you don't need[br]to be dealing for a living, man.
0:28:51.068,0:28:52.768
You could make something[br]of yourself.
0:28:52.836,0:28:53.969
Is that what[br]you came here to tell me?
0:28:54.037,0:28:55.671
You've got real[br]software clients, man.
0:28:55.739,0:28:56.739
Stick to them.
0:28:56.807,0:28:58.975
Jeez.[br]You believe that crap?
0:28:59.042,0:29:01.344
I don't have[br]any software clients.
0:29:01.411,0:29:04.113
Jesus.[br]You're as naive as Jenny.
0:29:04.181,0:29:05.615
Look...
0:29:05.682,0:29:07.917
If you need some kind of[br]transition money or something--
0:29:07.985,0:29:09.118
What? How?
0:29:09.186,0:29:10.953
Does it matter?
0:29:11.021,0:29:15.191
Look, what matters is that[br]you don't help me out, okay?
0:29:15.259,0:29:16.192
I help you out.
0:29:16.260,0:29:17.427
And I'm not interested
0:29:17.495,0:29:19.663
in transitioning into anything.
0:29:19.731,0:29:21.999
Okay.
0:29:22.067,0:29:23.767
But the least you could do[br]is be honest with Jenny.
0:29:23.835,0:29:25.069
That's what this is all about.
0:29:25.136,0:29:26.370
- Yeah.[br]- You always liked her.
0:29:26.438,0:29:29.673
I think she deserves[br]to know the truth.
0:29:29.741,0:29:31.174
You always thought[br]you were better than me.
0:29:32.444,0:29:34.178
Maybe that's because I am.
0:29:45.090,0:29:49.128
Come on now.[br]All right?
0:29:57.738,0:29:59.973
We're done.
0:30:00.041,0:30:01.875
Don't let the door hit you--
0:30:13.377,0:30:14.510
Call Dominic?
0:30:14.578,0:30:16.178
He's waiting for us outside.
0:30:16.246,0:30:17.513
He's got the speech down?
0:30:17.580,0:30:18.981
Yeah, he's got it down.
0:30:19.048,0:30:21.049
Better.[br]I'm taking a big risk on him.
0:30:21.117,0:30:22.550
You're taking a risk on him?
0:30:22.618,0:30:24.752
Look at him.
0:30:24.820,0:30:26.220
He's scared out of his mind.
0:30:26.288,0:30:27.589
He's leaving his comfort zone
0:30:27.656,0:30:29.825
because you convinced him to.[br]So?
0:30:29.892,0:30:32.528
So maybe some words[br]of encouragement.
0:30:32.595,0:30:34.196
The best way to help Dominic
0:30:34.264,0:30:36.032
is not to let him[br]second guess himself.
0:30:36.100,0:30:38.702
The most important asset[br]an attorney has
0:30:38.769,0:30:41.371
is his ability[br]to always be self-assured.
0:30:41.439,0:30:44.008
Okay.[br]Here's what's gonna happen.
0:30:44.076,0:30:45.710
It's standard for me[br]to prep the board
0:30:45.777,0:30:46.878
on any voting procedure.
0:30:46.945,0:30:48.413
When do I speak?
0:30:48.480,0:30:51.182
When I tell you to.[br]Let's go.
0:30:55.053,0:30:56.853
I suggested to Stensland[br]you be there
0:30:56.921,0:30:58.722
to convince the board[br]the production won't be hurt
0:30:58.789,0:30:59.889
by an overseas move.
0:30:59.957,0:31:01.290
It helps your credibility
0:31:01.358,0:31:02.658
that he brought you here,
0:31:02.726,0:31:05.194
and it'll hurt his when[br]you challenge him for CEO.
0:31:09.199,0:31:11.801
Look, it's natural[br]to be nervous, okay?
0:31:11.869,0:31:13.470
Just remember,[br]you know your stuff.
0:31:13.537,0:31:14.771
The board's never[br]loved Stensland,
0:31:14.839,0:31:16.139
and I'm here to back you up.
0:31:16.207,0:31:17.974
Okay.
0:31:26.184,0:31:28.019
Robert.
0:31:28.086,0:31:30.721
Harvey.
0:31:30.789,0:31:31.689
You know, I have to admit,
0:31:31.757,0:31:32.957
I almost didn't see it coming.
0:31:33.024,0:31:34.391
Excuse me?
0:31:34.459,0:31:35.759
It was the delay[br]in the due diligence.
0:31:35.827,0:31:37.194
It just didn't smell right.
0:31:37.262,0:31:38.795
So the only thing it could be
0:31:38.863,0:31:42.198
was that you were going after[br]my CEO appointment.
0:31:42.266,0:31:44.533
So since I'm still within my[br]rights to move a board meeting,
0:31:44.601,0:31:45.668
I did.
0:31:45.735,0:31:48.303
I was voted in today at noon.
0:31:48.371,0:31:51.173
And tomorrow the board will[br]ratify the sale of the factory.
0:31:51.241,0:31:55.478
And now I'm firing your firm.
0:31:55.546,0:31:58.581
And I'm firing you.
0:31:58.649,0:32:00.750
Try the croissant, gentlemen.
0:32:00.817,0:32:02.952
Marmalade's fantastic.
0:32:12.964,0:32:14.365
What are we gonna do?
0:32:14.433,0:32:15.934
You're gonna go through[br]those bylaws again,
0:32:16.002,0:32:17.202
and see if there isn't[br]another way
0:32:17.269,0:32:18.470
we can stop this sale.
0:32:18.538,0:32:19.471
I'm talking about Dominic.
0:32:19.539,0:32:20.773
He just lost his job.
0:32:20.841,0:32:22.808
He's a grown man.[br]He made a decision.
0:32:22.876,0:32:24.444
Because you convinced him to.
0:32:24.511,0:32:25.712
Based on your idea,
0:32:25.780,0:32:27.481
which I recall[br]you pushed on me at the time.
0:32:27.548,0:32:29.582
Because I thought[br]it would work at the time.
0:32:29.650,0:32:30.683
Well, it didn't. What do you[br]want me to do about it?
0:32:30.751,0:32:32.952
Help him.
0:32:33.020,0:32:34.220
He's not dying.[br]He lost his job.
0:32:34.288,0:32:35.622
He has to look for another one.
0:32:35.689,0:32:36.957
Which, if he hadn't chosen
0:32:37.024,0:32:38.024
to fight for his company[br]in the first place,
0:32:38.092,0:32:39.126
would have happened anyway.
0:32:39.193,0:32:40.694
Now, show me that you get it,
0:32:40.762,0:32:42.262
go back through[br]those bylaws again,
0:32:42.330,0:32:44.798
and see if you missed anything.[br]Okay?
0:32:47.803,0:32:49.737
So this is what happens[br]when you promote the wrong guy
0:32:49.804,0:32:51.171
to senior partner.
0:32:51.239,0:32:52.573
If you hadn't gone[br]to Stensland behind my back,
0:32:52.640,0:32:54.508
this wouldn't have happened.[br]You don't know that.
0:32:54.575,0:32:56.143
And I'm a member of this firm[br]just as much of you.
0:32:56.211,0:32:57.311
Oh, I think we both agree[br]that you're a member.
0:32:57.378,0:32:59.513
For your information,[br]I didn't even--
0:32:59.581,0:33:01.882
Louis.[br]Harvey, eye on the ball.
0:33:01.950,0:33:04.818
The issue here is you tried[br]to torpedo a client--
0:33:04.886,0:33:07.220
The client is McKernon Motors,[br]not Stensland.
0:33:07.288,0:33:08.488
You didn't let me finish.
0:33:08.556,0:33:10.924
Without my consent.
0:33:10.992,0:33:13.660
That trumps[br]the "who's the client" part.
0:33:13.728,0:33:16.630
Louis, go to Stensland,[br]repair the relationship.
0:33:16.697,0:33:19.199
Say what you have to.[br]Call it a misunderstanding.
0:33:19.267,0:33:22.502
Promise Harvey[br]is no longer involved.
0:33:22.570,0:33:24.704
Consider it done.
0:33:28.142,0:33:29.709
Wait a second.
0:33:29.777,0:33:31.878
Louis didn't go to Stensland[br]behind my back.
0:33:31.945,0:33:34.614
You send him there[br]to hedge your bets.
0:33:34.681,0:33:38.851
Either Stensland's out[br]and we double our billings,
0:33:38.918,0:33:40.786
or you have plausible[br]deniability,
0:33:40.854,0:33:43.121
and he stays with the firm.
0:33:43.189,0:33:47.024
Wow. Am I smart enough[br]to do that?
0:33:47.092,0:33:48.492
If I win, I look great.
0:33:48.560,0:33:51.061
If Louis wins, he looks great.
0:33:51.129,0:33:54.765
Either way...[br]you look great.
0:33:54.833,0:33:57.435
You mean the firm looks great.
0:33:57.502,0:33:59.237
Harvey, what I've been trying[br]to get into your head
0:33:59.304,0:34:01.105
is that you bought in.
0:34:01.172,0:34:03.207
You are the firm.
0:34:05.843,0:34:07.544
That's it.
0:34:10.482,0:34:11.849
Mike, follow me.
0:34:11.917,0:34:13.451
I need you[br]to go talk to Dominic.
0:34:13.518,0:34:16.254
What? Why?[br]Stensland's already CEO.
0:34:16.322,0:34:18.422
That won't matter[br]if we just buy the damn company.
0:34:18.491,0:34:22.661
What?
0:34:22.728,0:34:27.065
Why are you still working?
0:34:27.134,0:34:28.734
It's one of my creations.
0:34:28.802,0:34:31.704
I'm not leaving it unfinished.
0:34:31.771,0:34:34.072
What the hell do you want?
0:34:34.139,0:34:36.174
I'd be happy to tell you[br]if you put that wrench down.
0:34:36.242,0:34:37.308
Yeah, you're quick[br]with the jokes.
0:34:37.376,0:34:39.944
I'm the guy who just got fired.
0:34:40.012,0:34:43.214
You're right. I'm sorry.
0:34:43.281,0:34:45.216
What would you say[br]if I told you
0:34:45.283,0:34:47.618
we could get your job back[br]and stick it to Stensland.
0:34:47.686,0:34:49.487
I'm done with Harvey[br]and his plans, yeah?
0:34:49.554,0:34:51.088
You were there.[br]We got fired too.
0:34:51.156,0:34:52.556
You and Harvey still have jobs?
0:34:52.625,0:34:55.893
He doesn't care[br]about anybody but himself,
0:34:55.962,0:34:57.496
including you, Mike.
0:34:57.564,0:35:01.667
Yeah.[br]You're probably right.
0:35:01.735,0:35:05.138
But he did stick his neck out[br]to keep your company here,
0:35:05.205,0:35:07.974
and he does have an idea[br]that requires your help,
0:35:08.042,0:35:11.110
so you can stay here[br]and call him an asshole,
0:35:11.178,0:35:13.512
or you can come with me[br]and we can help him.
0:35:17.717,0:35:20.185
Give me my goddamn shirt.
0:35:33.807,0:35:35.441
You know,[br]it goes from 0 to 60--
0:35:35.509,0:35:40.078
In the blink of an eye.
0:35:40.146,0:35:42.714
Did you bring me down here[br]to tell me I can drive this?
0:35:42.782,0:35:43.883
Better.
0:35:43.950,0:35:46.818
For $250 million,[br]you can own it.
0:35:46.886,0:35:48.954
McKernon Motors is for sale?
0:35:49.022,0:35:50.723
If we act fast.
0:35:50.791,0:35:52.091
I'll need[br]to see the financials.
0:35:52.159,0:35:53.626
You put together[br]a letter of intent,
0:35:53.694,0:35:54.995
they'll get you the financials.
0:35:55.063,0:35:57.865
You know, their real asset[br]is engine quality.
0:35:57.933,0:35:59.500
I don't want[br]to just buy the name.
0:35:59.568,0:36:01.069
Speak of the devil.
0:36:01.137,0:36:03.338
Laurence, I'd like you[br]to meet the man responsible
0:36:03.406,0:36:05.073
for every McKernon Motors[br]engine ever built.
0:36:05.141,0:36:06.808
Wow. Dominic Barone.[br]Very nice to meet you.
0:36:06.876,0:36:08.276
Good to meet you.
0:36:08.344,0:36:10.145
I'd like to show you something[br]if you have a minute.
0:36:10.212,0:36:13.248
Absolutely.
0:36:13.315,0:36:15.316
So how do we get an offer[br]to the board
0:36:15.384,0:36:18.119
before they vote to ratify[br]the deal tomorrow?
0:36:18.187,0:36:19.721
You're gonna[br]go through those bylaws,
0:36:19.788,0:36:21.189
and you're gonna[br]figure something out.
0:36:21.257,0:36:23.024
I don't have to look through[br]them to figure it out,
0:36:23.091,0:36:23.991
because I just did.
0:36:24.059,0:36:25.326
Well, what took you so long?
0:36:25.394,0:36:27.996
You trying to look like me?
0:36:32.935,0:36:34.503
Each of you have 24 hours
0:36:34.571,0:36:36.172
to review the documents[br]in front of you,
0:36:36.239,0:36:37.740
so at this time...
0:36:37.808,0:36:39.141
Uh, excuse me.[br]Excuse me.
0:36:39.209,0:36:41.377
What is he doing here?
0:36:41.445,0:36:42.846
I'm sorry.[br]I'm gonna take care of this.
0:36:42.913,0:36:44.247
No, no, I will.
0:36:44.315,0:36:46.382
You gentlemen have no right[br]to attend this meeting.
0:36:46.450,0:36:47.683
Actually, we do.
0:36:47.751,0:36:50.185
The bylaw states[br]that any original employee
0:36:50.253,0:36:51.486
has the right[br]to petition the board
0:36:51.554,0:36:53.088
any time they meet.
0:36:53.156,0:36:55.757
Dominic Barone[br]has assigned that right to me.
0:36:55.824,0:36:57.325
He was fired.
0:36:57.392,0:36:58.859
He no longer has that right.
0:36:58.927,0:37:01.429
Per section 17-5, point "C,"
0:37:01.496,0:37:03.097
Dominic wasn't given[br]three days' notice,
0:37:03.165,0:37:05.633
so technically he wasn't fired.
0:37:05.701,0:37:07.335
Which is why[br]I do have the right
0:37:07.403,0:37:09.438
to urge the board[br]to accept the offer
0:37:09.505,0:37:11.306
for the purchase[br]of McKernon Motors.
0:37:11.374,0:37:13.442
Now, I can tell you[br]that this offer
0:37:13.510,0:37:15.645
will keep manufacturing here[br]and save jobs
0:37:15.712,0:37:17.680
while retaining[br]the flagship engine
0:37:17.748,0:37:19.182
that put this company[br]on the map,
0:37:19.250,0:37:21.551
but I don't have to,[br]because it happens to be
0:37:21.619,0:37:23.120
for way more goddamn money
0:37:23.187,0:37:26.322
than the one[br]in front of you right now.
0:37:26.390,0:37:28.958
Hey, Bob.[br]How are ya?
0:37:31.127,0:37:32.795
It's funny[br]how you held out on me
0:37:32.862,0:37:34.496
on that proper[br]notice exception.
0:37:34.564,0:37:35.497
I didn't hold out.
0:37:35.565,0:37:37.032
I made that up on the spot.
0:37:37.100,0:37:38.567
Really? On the spot?
0:37:38.635,0:37:40.102
Remember that[br]getting it stuff--
0:37:40.170,0:37:41.503
I know, right?[br]I'm getting it.
0:37:41.571,0:37:44.039
Well, I was gonna say that,[br]but now you ruined it.
0:37:44.106,0:37:46.708
That's one thing[br]you definitely get.
0:37:46.776,0:37:49.411
How to ruin it.
0:37:49.479,0:37:50.712
How to ruin it?
0:37:50.780,0:37:54.149
I heard that.
0:38:05.429,0:38:08.064
I have to admit,[br]you don't suck.
0:38:08.132,0:38:10.334
I wish I could say[br]the same for you.
0:38:13.338,0:38:15.640
Time to pay the Piper.
0:38:15.707,0:38:17.275
Just so you know,[br]I took the liberty
0:38:17.343,0:38:19.845
of ordering some[br]really expensive wines.
0:38:19.912,0:38:21.480
Hope that's okay.
0:38:32.792,0:38:34.994
Sorry, sir, but the check's[br]been paid for in full
0:38:35.062,0:38:36.896
by a Harvey Specter.
0:38:41.334,0:38:43.668
There, uh, might have been[br]some gluten in the ravioli.
0:38:50.342,0:38:52.743
I hear McKernon Motors[br]is getting a new owner.
0:38:52.810,0:38:54.544
We're not only[br]handling the sale,
0:38:54.612,0:38:56.779
but with the expansion plan[br]they're putting in place,
0:38:56.847,0:38:58.148
our billables should double.
0:38:58.215,0:38:59.716
Nicely done.
0:38:59.783,0:39:02.985
I did it for the firm.
0:39:06.923,0:39:11.060
♪ ♪
0:39:11.128,0:39:15.996
♪ it's a perfect day[br]to turn away and run ♪
0:39:29.949,0:39:34.486
What are you doing here?
0:39:34.554,0:39:35.888
You were right.
0:39:35.955,0:39:37.323
I should never[br]have kept it from you
0:39:37.391,0:39:40.861
that Trevor was dealing[br]all that time.
0:39:40.928,0:39:45.899
Well, I mean, it's, uh...
0:39:45.967,0:39:49.436
it's all in the past, right?
0:39:49.504,0:39:52.139
No.
0:39:52.207,0:39:55.809
What are you talking about?
0:39:55.876,0:40:01.314
He's lying to you.
0:40:01.382,0:40:03.349
He's still dealing.
0:40:03.417,0:40:05.685
And I'm done with him.
0:40:13.793,0:40:15.994
Son of a bitch.
0:40:18.564,0:40:20.865
Well, thank you, uh,[br]for telling me.
0:40:20.933,0:40:24.903
No, don't. Stop.
0:40:24.971,0:40:26.872
We're even.
0:40:26.940,0:40:31.276
And that is the last time[br]I am ever ratting on anyone.
0:40:31.344,0:40:35.848
So if you fall for it again...
0:40:35.915,0:40:39.018
it's on you.
0:40:39.086,0:40:43.289
Are you angry with me?
0:40:43.357,0:40:45.058
You told me[br]he would listen to me.
0:40:45.125,0:40:47.260
- I thought he would.[br]- Well, he didn't.
0:40:47.328,0:40:49.096
I...
0:40:49.164,0:40:51.599
I'm sorry.
0:40:51.667,0:40:54.068
I'm s-- I'm sorry.
0:41:01.878,0:41:02.945
No, I can't.
0:41:03.012,0:41:04.079
I can't.
0:41:04.147,0:41:05.180
What?
0:41:05.248,0:41:08.750
No, I-- I fought with him.
0:41:08.817,0:41:10.685
Oh, God.
0:41:10.752,0:41:14.188
This is too much.
0:41:14.255,0:41:15.556
Oh, my God.
