01:17.661 --> 01:20.246
All right.
You got the whole thing?

01:20.330 --> 01:23.332
l got the whole thing 1400 different
ways already, Drama.

01:23.417 --> 01:25.209
Just keep snapping.
lt's digital.

01:25.294 --> 01:27.086
- There is no waste.
- Yeah, only my time.

01:27.171 --> 01:29.922
Come on, come on. We're not going
anywhere until somebody recognizes me.

01:31.175 --> 01:32.717
Favor me, but get some
of the other guys too.

01:32.801 --> 01:35.928
- Okay.
- There you go.

01:36.013 --> 01:38.264
Hey, jerk-off!
What kind of loser

01:38.348 --> 01:40.057
takes pictures in front of his
own billboard?

01:40.726 --> 01:42.226
There you go, Drama.
You've been recognized.

01:42.561 --> 01:44.187
E don't count.
lt's gotta be a stranger.

01:44.271 --> 01:45.730
VlNCE: Johnny, it looks good.

01:45.814 --> 01:47.356
Looks like it's
gonna be a big hit.

01:48.233 --> 01:50.276
- Thanks, bro!
- We're off to Amanda's.

01:50.360 --> 01:52.779
Yo, Vince, don't forget
to invite her to your birthday party?.

01:52.863 --> 01:55.239
Don't worry, she'll be there.
You just make sure it's a good one.

01:55.699 --> 01:57.366
Like we'd throw
you anything less?

01:57.451 --> 01:59.368
- Nice.
- Later, guys.

02:00.287 --> 02:01.913
DRAMA: Later. Oh, here comes
some chicks.

02:01.997 --> 02:04.123
Keep snapping.
See if they recognize me.

02:06.210 --> 02:07.627
- Hey.
- Hey.

02:07.711 --> 02:09.420
Was that Vince Chase
you were talking to?

02:13.967 --> 02:15.593
Hey, Vince.
Happy birthday.

02:15.677 --> 02:17.178
Hey,
thank you.

02:17.262 --> 02:20.181
- Happy birthday, Vince.
- Thanks!

02:20.265 --> 02:22.600
- Happy birthday, Vince.
- Thank you.

02:23.894 --> 02:26.813
Hey, is that my agent or
America's next top model?

02:27.272 --> 02:29.690
Don't patronize me.
l know l look like shit.

02:29.775 --> 02:31.234
l was up all night
fighting with my ex.

02:31.318 --> 02:33.444
- Over the house again?
- No, the dog.

02:33.529 --> 02:36.823
What kind of man sues for custody
of a labradoodle?

02:37.157 --> 02:38.282

02:38.408 --> 02:39.867
So... (CLEARS THROAT)

02:40.410 --> 02:42.119
who did their required
reading last night?

02:43.372 --> 02:44.497
How many?

02:44.581 --> 02:45.748
l read
four of them.

02:45.833 --> 02:47.124
That's impressive.
Vince?

02:47.584 --> 02:48.918
l read half of three.

02:49.545 --> 02:51.128
Look, Amanda,
you have to understand

02:51.255 --> 02:53.172
that you sent some
very large scripts.

02:53.257 --> 02:55.174
lt's true. The scripts Ari
used to send us

02:55.259 --> 02:57.969
were in the 90-to-1 04-page range.
Yours are closer to 140.

02:58.053 --> 02:59.512
lt leaves me no
time for skin care.

02:59.596 --> 03:00.888
(PHONE RlNGlNG)

03:00.973 --> 03:03.015
l'm surprised Ari doesn't
just send coverage.

03:03.100 --> 03:04.350
That's all he
reads anyway.

03:05.519 --> 03:08.688
Look, l can find you
another popcorn movie, no problem,

03:08.772 --> 03:10.982
but you asked me to find something
you could sink your teeth into.

03:11.191 --> 03:13.401
Do you have something?
'Cause none of these quite got us.

03:14.152 --> 03:15.361
This one will.

03:15.445 --> 03:17.321
You guys know
l don't hard-sell,

03:17.447 --> 03:20.241
but this
is the one.

03:20.617 --> 03:22.243
1 27 pages.

03:22.452 --> 03:23.703
Manageable.

03:25.539 --> 03:28.291
lt's Edith Wharton's
"Glimpses of the Moon."

03:28.625 --> 03:30.293
Studio's been trying
to tackle it for years,

03:30.377 --> 03:31.836
nobody could get
a handle on it.

03:32.296 --> 03:34.922
Steve Zaillian did.
The script is wonderful.

03:35.007 --> 03:36.173
Did you guys like
"Age of lnnocence"?

03:36.550 --> 03:37.884
l don't remember
the story,

03:37.968 --> 03:39.969
but l do remember after seeing it
l knew how to hold my fork.

03:40.220 --> 03:42.471
ERlC: l liked "Age of lnnocence."
ls Scorsese doing this?

03:42.639 --> 03:43.973
No, Sam Mendes is.

03:44.099 --> 03:45.933
Oh, Sam Mendes.
l love "American Beauty."

03:46.143 --> 03:47.935
Great.
Read at least 90, then.

03:48.979 --> 03:50.646
And they need
a quick answer.

03:51.315 --> 03:52.982
Looks like we have
homework tonight.

03:53.984 --> 03:55.067
No, not tonight.

03:55.694 --> 03:57.653
Come on, tonight we're celebrating
somebody's birthday.

03:57.946 --> 03:59.071
Hey, she remembered.

03:59.156 --> 04:00.656

get me?

04:11.418 --> 04:12.418
Great gift.
Thank you.

04:12.502 --> 04:13.586
You're all
welcome.

04:13.670 --> 04:15.588
How is the party?
planning coming?

04:15.672 --> 04:17.214
l'm sure it's
gonna be sick.

04:17.424 --> 04:20.217
l'm running things,
so use your imagination.

04:20.344 --> 04:23.679
l'm picturing lots of strippers
and porn stars, Turtle.

04:23.764 --> 04:26.265
He's promised us he's gonna invite
some regular girls too.

04:26.516 --> 04:29.018
Just a couple.
You got to come help fill the quota.

04:29.227 --> 04:30.478

miss it.

You're welcome to
bring a guest...

04:32.439 --> 04:34.690
if you have
someone special.

04:35.692 --> 04:36.817
Um...

04:36.902 --> 04:39.570
there is nobody,
but thank you, Johnny.

04:40.489 --> 04:42.365
- That's good to know.
- Uh-huh.

05:07.182 --> 05:09.725
Oh, Jesus, the house
that l built!

05:10.394 --> 05:12.061
Maybe it was
his birthday present.

05:12.187 --> 05:13.396
You think?

05:14.648 --> 05:17.191
l put him on the fucking court
on Arbor Day,

05:17.275 --> 05:18.484
and that's
her present?

05:18.568 --> 05:20.152
God, she's so
fucking wrong for him.

05:20.237 --> 05:23.155
Oh, Ari, l hate
to see you like this.

05:23.240 --> 05:24.407
Shut up, Lloyd,
l'll be fine.

05:24.491 --> 05:25.866
Your horoscope
doesn't think so.

05:25.951 --> 05:28.577
lt said this was going to be a very
tumultuous week.

05:29.705 --> 05:31.706
l bet she'll be at
his birthday party?.

05:31.790 --> 05:32.832
Fuck!

05:32.916 --> 05:35.418
He'll probably let her
blow out his candles.

05:35.919 --> 05:37.044
Still no
invite for me, huh?

05:37.129 --> 05:39.880
Not from Vince.
But we did receive an evite

05:39.965 --> 05:41.924
to Patrick Dempsey's house
for running charades.

05:42.968 --> 05:45.511
You know, l've spent Vince's
last five birthdays with him.

05:45.595 --> 05:47.805
l know.
And you know

05:47.931 --> 05:50.141
your present's gonna be
so much better than hers.

05:50.225 --> 05:52.476
lt is, Lloyd, it is.
And you want to know why?

05:52.561 --> 05:55.604
Because l'm actually
giving him something that he wants.

05:55.731 --> 05:56.772
<i>Aww.</i>

06:00.068 --> 06:01.277
What the fuck
does that mean?

06:01.820 --> 06:03.362
Heartbreak.

06:08.452 --> 06:10.077
Okay, we need
to talk party?.

06:10.162 --> 06:12.038
l think we need
to lose the venue.

06:12.122 --> 06:13.706
Why?
Privilege is great.

06:13.790 --> 06:15.541
They only serve
liquor till 2:00 AM.

06:15.625 --> 06:17.209
We want this thing
to go all night.

06:17.294 --> 06:19.628
Or all morning,
as the ladies come a'running.

06:19.713 --> 06:21.589
Whatever, Turtle.
Your point?

06:21.673 --> 06:24.008
What about Ari?
Does he make the guest list?

06:24.301 --> 06:25.968
No. No no no
no no no no.

06:26.053 --> 06:27.845
No exes
at a birthday party?.

06:27.971 --> 06:30.222
- Never never never.
- Hey, that's Vince's call.

06:30.307 --> 06:32.641
l think baby bro was a little freaked
out about seeing him last night.

06:32.726 --> 06:34.602
Nah, Vince
don't get rattled.

06:34.686 --> 06:36.479
Besides us and his mother,
Ari is the longest

06:36.563 --> 06:38.814
relationship Vince has ever had.
He must've been a little rattled.

06:38.899 --> 06:42.109
That's why it's best after a breakup,
professional or otherwise,

06:42.194 --> 06:44.070
to split the town
into even territories.

06:44.154 --> 06:45.821
Ari pays 200 grand a year
for those tickets.

06:45.906 --> 06:47.823
l doubt we can have him banned
him from the Staples Center.

06:47.908 --> 06:50.201
- Yo yo.
- Morning, bro.

06:50.285 --> 06:52.578
- Eggs benedict?
- Yeah, that'd be great, Johnny.

06:52.662 --> 06:56.207
Hey, E, the script is good.
Real good.

06:56.291 --> 06:58.125
- Wow, you read it?
- Cover to cover.

06:58.210 --> 06:59.919
- When?
- Last night.

07:00.003 --> 07:03.422
- Couldn't sleep, bro?
- No, l slept like a baby.

07:03.840 --> 07:07.468
So, E, looks like l beat you
this time, huh?

07:07.552 --> 07:08.844
Guess again.
l read it.

07:09.179 --> 07:10.179
And?

07:10.263 --> 07:12.389
l liked it.
What l understood of it, anyway.

07:12.474 --> 07:15.267
Yeah, l did run to my dictionary
a couple times.

07:15.352 --> 07:17.186
lt's different than anything l ever
thought l'd do,

07:17.270 --> 07:19.105
but l love that
Amanda thinks like this.

07:19.356 --> 07:22.024
l'll call her, have her set up a meet-
and-greet with Mendes.

07:22.317 --> 07:24.276
Actually, you know what?
l'll call her.

07:24.361 --> 07:26.612
l want her to know l'm taking
this very seriously.

07:26.696 --> 07:28.155
(PHONE RlNGlNG)

07:28.240 --> 07:30.074
Hey, maybe
that's her now.

07:30.325 --> 07:32.618
We have this weird synch,
don't you think?

07:32.744 --> 07:34.453
- lt's uncanny.
- Hello?

07:36.039 --> 07:37.164
Hello?

07:39.126 --> 07:40.668
Did you just
prank Vince?

07:40.752 --> 07:43.838
l never heard the guy answer the phone
before. lt spooked me!

07:43.922 --> 07:46.423
He's gonna know it's you.
Our company name comes up.

07:46.508 --> 07:49.677
Why does it come up? Whose idea was
that? What's the fucking point?

07:49.928 --> 07:51.762
- l don't know.
- He's not gonna know it's me.

07:51.888 --> 07:54.140
- lt could've been you calling Drama.
- True.

07:54.224 --> 07:56.058
What do l care if
he thinks it was me?

07:56.143 --> 07:59.562
l'm meant to call.
l'm calling him again.

08:00.230 --> 08:01.355
ln a minute.

08:01.439 --> 08:03.649
You call Drama first
so he thinks it was you.

08:07.612 --> 08:08.904
Oh, hey,
Lloyd, what's up?

08:09.614 --> 08:12.491
l bet you're getting some calls
about my billboard, huh?

08:12.576 --> 08:15.411
Uh, no. l haven't heard a thing
about it. Did it go up yet?

08:15.495 --> 08:17.997
Are you kidding?
lt's huge.

08:18.081 --> 08:19.665
You obviously
don't drive Sunset.

08:19.749 --> 08:21.584
To and from work every day,
but l'll look again.

08:21.918 --> 08:23.252
- Do.
- l will.

08:24.379 --> 08:25.838
So, listen,

08:25.922 --> 08:27.840
as long as l've got you on the phone,
is Vince there?

08:27.924 --> 08:29.008
What the fuck are you doing?

08:29.092 --> 08:32.344
What you should've done a long time
ago-- getting your man back.

08:32.929 --> 08:34.180
So is he
there?

08:34.264 --> 08:36.056
Yeah, he's here,
Lloyd, why?

08:36.141 --> 08:37.766
'Cause, l don't know,
you know,

08:37.976 --> 08:39.768
Ari's here too.
Maybe they should say hi.

08:39.978 --> 08:41.896
l don't think that's such
a great idea.

08:41.980 --> 08:45.691
Put him on the phone, Johnny, or no more
agency comps at Burke Williams.

08:47.444 --> 08:49.028
Someone wants to
talk to you, bro.

08:52.407 --> 08:55.034
- Vinnie boy!
- Hey, Ari.

08:55.285 --> 08:57.369
- How you doing?
- l'm doing great.

08:57.454 --> 09:00.623
l'm doing great.
You know, how you doing?

09:01.333 --> 09:03.292
l'm doing.
l'm doing.

09:04.711 --> 09:06.879
Listen, l don't want
to beat around the bush.

09:06.963 --> 09:09.340
lt's your birthday and it made me
realize how much l miss you.

09:09.424 --> 09:13.052
l mean, not like Lloyd
misses you, but friends-wise.

09:13.178 --> 09:15.221
So, uh, l mean,
you miss me, Vinnie?

09:15.305 --> 09:17.223
Yeah...
you know,

09:17.307 --> 09:18.724
friends-wise,
l miss you, yeah.

09:18.808 --> 09:21.143
Great great.
That's great. Listen, uh...

09:24.981 --> 09:26.690
l got a--
l got a gift for you,

09:26.775 --> 09:29.026
and l could just, uh, you know,
l could send it over.

09:29.110 --> 09:30.611
But l, you know,
l'd love to see you.

09:30.695 --> 09:32.738
l'd rather see your
face and, you know,

09:32.822 --> 09:35.282
grab some dinner,
so, uh, catch up.

09:35.617 --> 09:38.118
Bring E if you want.
What do you say?

09:39.496 --> 09:40.663
Um...

09:40.914 --> 09:43.332
Make it lunch.
No dinner.

09:43.416 --> 09:44.667
Why not dinner?

09:44.751 --> 09:46.418
You're leading him
on with dinner.

09:46.544 --> 09:49.296
You're saying something l don't
think you want to say.

09:49.381 --> 09:50.881
And what
am l saying?

09:50.966 --> 09:53.467
That you want to jump back in
the sack with him.

09:53.551 --> 09:55.427
l mean, come on,
do you ever go to dinner

09:55.512 --> 09:57.221
with a disgruntled ex,
and she really

09:57.347 --> 09:59.765
wasn't just looking
for some tasty dessert?

09:59.849 --> 10:01.976
l agree with Drama. l mean, he's making
me sick with the metaphors,

10:02.060 --> 10:03.435
but Ari's not doing
this out of friendship.

10:03.520 --> 10:04.812
We'll make it lunch.

10:04.896 --> 10:06.397
You could still have
dessert after lunch.

10:06.481 --> 10:07.856
Better make
it a coffee.

10:07.983 --> 10:11.860
Good thinking. Coffee says "l sip,
but l ain't sucking."

10:12.195 --> 10:13.529
What the fuck is wrong
with you, Drama?

10:13.613 --> 10:16.782
Cursed with wisdom is all.
Oh, yeah.

10:16.866 --> 10:19.493
- That looks good.
- Oh, that's in the hole.

10:19.619 --> 10:21.036
- (WHlSPERlNG)
- VlNCE: Hey hey hey.

10:21.121 --> 10:23.580
- What's this? No secrets.
- l'm with Vince.

10:23.665 --> 10:26.583
The whispering stops, or nobody's
getting a soufflé at dinner tonight.

10:26.668 --> 10:28.794
Relax, Drama.
lt's about the party? venue.

10:29.045 --> 10:31.714
lf it's about money, you don't have
to spend a lot to throw me a party?.

10:32.132 --> 10:34.383
Remember ninth grade?
You surprised me at Friendly's.

10:35.010 --> 10:37.094
- That was awesome.
- DRAMA: Yeah it was.

10:37.178 --> 10:39.096
And l got jerked off by the girl
who made the fribbles.

10:39.806 --> 10:41.307
We're not doing this party?
at Friendly's, Vince,

10:41.391 --> 10:44.018
and you're not paying for anything.
Turtle, did you take care of the booze?

10:44.102 --> 10:45.102
Done.

10:45.186 --> 10:46.895
- Give me back my Visa.
- No problem.

10:47.272 --> 10:50.983
Wow, Turtle, l've never seen you
cough up plastic so easily.

10:51.067 --> 10:53.152
That's 'cause l still
got the kid's MasterCard,

10:53.236 --> 10:54.820
and that's the one
l'm keeping for the venue.

10:54.904 --> 10:57.948
Hey, jerk-off, you're a grown man.
Get yourself some credit.

11:00.744 --> 11:02.036
You like it or you love it?

11:02.120 --> 11:03.912
- VlNCE: l love it.
- Great.

11:04.122 --> 11:06.415
That's all l need to hear.
l'll set the meeting with Sam.

11:06.499 --> 11:07.750
Okay, great.

11:08.460 --> 11:11.003
Listen, Amanda,
l gotta go.

11:11.087 --> 11:13.213
- l'll check in with you a little later.
- Okay.

11:13.298 --> 11:14.340
- Bye.
- Bye.

11:14.424 --> 11:17.009
Remember: he starts talking business,
change the subject.

11:17.093 --> 11:19.178
You don't think we can have a friendly
conversation with Ari?

11:19.262 --> 11:20.804
l don't think l've ever had
a conversation with him

11:20.889 --> 11:22.348
where he didn't
want something. You?

11:22.432 --> 11:24.558
- l'll change the subject.
- ARl: Boys!

11:24.642 --> 11:26.226
Boys, look at that.

11:26.561 --> 11:28.520
Wouldn't even have dinner
with me, huh?

11:28.605 --> 11:31.315
(GROANS) Weird. Kinda feels like
l'm trying to fuck you guys.

11:31.399 --> 11:32.691
Are you?

11:33.568 --> 11:35.861
Look at that-- E!
l love it, huh?

11:35.945 --> 11:38.364
Still got little-man's complex
enough to want to fight.

11:38.448 --> 11:40.324
Sit down.
Sit down.

11:51.586 --> 11:53.754
- So--
- BOTH: So...

11:55.131 --> 11:58.050
So happy fucking birthday.

11:58.134 --> 12:00.844
Oh wow, Ari, thanks.

12:00.929 --> 12:02.054
What is it?

12:02.138 --> 12:04.765
Something that you
really really want.

12:04.974 --> 12:08.060
You know what?
Wait till later to open it. For now...

12:08.144 --> 12:10.562
let's put surprises aside
and just enjoy

12:10.647 --> 12:12.815
one another's company.
We can do that, right?

12:13.483 --> 12:14.900
We can try.

12:15.151 --> 12:16.944
(NERVOUS CHUCKLES)

12:18.363 --> 12:20.280
DRAMA: A booze cruise,
l like it.

12:20.365 --> 12:22.157
TURTLE: No last call
on the open water.

12:22.242 --> 12:23.992
And no neighbors
to complain about the noise.

12:24.327 --> 12:28.580
Holy shit, look at that--
another billboard. l'm everywhere.

12:28.957 --> 12:31.083
Spreading like the plague
that you are, Drama.

12:31.167 --> 12:33.419
- Does that guy look familiar to you?
- Huh?

12:33.503 --> 12:36.130
- On the billboard. That's me.
- Oh, congrats.

12:36.214 --> 12:37.965
But l can't see that far
without my glasses.

12:39.092 --> 12:40.926
(FAlNTLY) You ever hear of Lasik?

12:41.469 --> 12:42.761
So what's the price
on this thing?

12:42.846 --> 12:46.223
- 20 Gs for the night.
- 20 Gs, huh?

12:46.307 --> 12:48.434
- ls that a problem?
- No no no, no problem.

12:48.560 --> 12:51.520
- What's the capacity?
- 200, 250 max.

12:52.355 --> 12:54.314
See, that, my friend,
is a problem.

12:54.399 --> 12:56.275
You got anything
that's a little bigger?

12:57.110 --> 12:59.611
- Not a word about business, E.
- Very impressive.

12:59.696 --> 13:01.196
Should l invite him
to the party??

13:01.281 --> 13:02.781
You wanna invite him
to the party??

13:02.866 --> 13:04.074
l wanna invite him
to the party?.

13:04.200 --> 13:05.534
Then you should
invite him to the party?.

13:05.869 --> 13:07.661
Here he comes.

13:08.705 --> 13:10.998
All right, what do you guys
think about dessert?

13:11.082 --> 13:12.458
- No.
- No dessert.

13:12.542 --> 13:14.376
- All right, just the check then.
- l already got it, Ari.

13:14.461 --> 13:17.629
Wow, E, you are really
officially keeping this unofficial.

13:17.964 --> 13:19.423
Just friends, Ari,
just friends.

13:19.507 --> 13:21.842
Just friends, absolutely.

13:22.385 --> 13:24.511
So, Ari, l'm having a little--

13:24.596 --> 13:26.889
l'd love to come to your
party?, Vinnie. Thank you.

13:26.973 --> 13:29.391
l'm afraid this card
has been declined.

13:31.686 --> 13:33.312
Trouble on the home front, E?

13:33.438 --> 13:35.898
No, it's all good.
l got it.

13:36.357 --> 13:38.525
Calm down, E! You're gonna give
yourself a stroke.

13:38.610 --> 13:41.069
You maxed out three of my fucking
credit cards, Turtle!

13:41.154 --> 13:43.906
- That's worse than a stroke.
- l'm a little over budget, that's all.

13:43.990 --> 13:45.199
How much is a little?

13:45.408 --> 13:47.451
What are you talking about?
You were with him the whole time.

13:47.535 --> 13:49.411
l didn't have my calculator with me.

13:49.496 --> 13:52.414
You're about to dip into your own
pocket-- better learn to finger count.

13:52.749 --> 13:54.625
Exactly how far over budget
are you, Turtle?

13:55.835 --> 13:57.628
50-- maybe!

13:57.754 --> 14:00.047
50? The whole budget
was supposed to be 50.

14:00.173 --> 14:02.257
E, this party?'s gonna suck
if we don't do it up.

14:02.383 --> 14:05.636
- We have an 800-person guest list.
- lt's supposed to be 200.

14:05.762 --> 14:07.054
lt's not my fault
Vince is popular.

14:07.138 --> 14:08.889
lt's a disease
in the Chase lineage.

14:09.974 --> 14:11.183
All right.

14:11.267 --> 14:13.268
l'll go up to 35 grand
and that's it.

14:13.353 --> 14:16.355
So unless you and Drama are planning
on ponying up more of your own cash,

14:16.439 --> 14:17.856
that brings us
to a grand total of 60.

14:17.941 --> 14:19.650
- What about what l spent?
- Get it back.

14:19.734 --> 14:21.652
- Yeah, get it back.
- Fuck you, Drama.

40th at Chuck E. Cheese.

over the party??

Fighting? We're not fighting.
Did you hear fighting?

14:29.786 --> 14:31.537
Why don't you guys just
let me pay for it, really?

14:31.621 --> 14:33.539

to you, Vince, so stop.

Okay. Okay.

You guys want to see
Ari's present to me?

14:38.461 --> 14:40.087
ERlC: Yeah.

14:43.550 --> 14:46.093
"Medellin"?
ls this a joke?

14:48.930 --> 14:51.390
- Did he like it, E?
- What the fuck does it mean, Ari?

14:51.474 --> 14:55.143
lt means that Vince doesn't have to do
some paint-drying Edith Wharton novel.

14:55.311 --> 14:58.397
- How'd you know about that?
- lt is my job to know all, E.

14:58.481 --> 15:01.567
Do you know Edith Wharton?
Always the same movie.

15:01.651 --> 15:03.610
Guy can't fuck the girl
for five years

15:03.695 --> 15:07.155
'cause those were the times.
Can Vince really relate to that?

15:07.365 --> 15:09.241
(SlGHS) What's up with "Medellin"?

15:09.325 --> 15:11.994
Why don't you check in with your girl?
She should be able to tell you.

15:12.203 --> 15:14.663
- You fucking with us, Ari?
- Why would l do that, E?

15:14.747 --> 15:17.249
We're all friends.
This is a gesture of friendship.

15:17.333 --> 15:20.669
Now, as a friend,
l advise you to call your girl

15:20.753 --> 15:23.380
and find out why she didn't
hand it to you first.

15:26.050 --> 15:29.011
Car service for nine grand?!
What's that all about?

15:29.345 --> 15:31.096
That's for drunk girls
to get home safely.

littering Sunset. Better keep that.

arrangements for four grand.

No no no, nothing gets a girl wet
like a calla-lily centerpiece.

15:42.150 --> 15:44.943
There's just no way to do this!
Maybe we should call it off.

15:45.028 --> 15:47.946
We're not calling it off, Turtle.
We're not getting any younger.

15:48.031 --> 15:49.573
How many of these things
do you think we got left?

15:49.824 --> 15:51.074
We got a lot left.

15:51.200 --> 15:53.452
Don't drag us into
your twilight years, Drama.

15:53.911 --> 15:57.539
Ha, funny. Here, get rid of all
the high-end brand alcohol.

15:57.707 --> 15:59.875
Go generic.
lt'll save us a ton.

16:01.711 --> 16:03.211
You know what,

16:04.130 --> 16:07.132
why don't we go the complete
opposite way and make us a ton?

16:07.842 --> 16:08.884
l don't follow.

16:09.385 --> 16:10.802
You will.

to the greatest party? ever.

you guys scripts in the first place.

This is a movie Vince has been dying
to do for two years,

16:21.064 --> 16:22.314
so he just figured, you know.

16:22.398 --> 16:25.567
No, l don't know, Eric. As far
as l know "Medellin" is not available.

16:25.902 --> 16:27.694
Benicio is signed on
to play Pablo Escobar.

16:27.904 --> 16:29.946
lf that changes, you think
it's going to be a big secret?

16:30.198 --> 16:31.198
What are you getting
so upset about?

16:31.282 --> 16:33.742
l'm upset because in order
to do my job, l need to know

16:33.826 --> 16:36.495
l don't have another voice whispering
in my client's ear behind my back.

16:36.579 --> 16:39.247
- You don't.
- Good.

16:39.749 --> 16:41.416
- Make sure Ari knows that.
- l will.

You should know Ari's going to be at
Vince's birthday party?.

- As long as he's dressed as a friend.

that script if it's not true?

l don't know, but l'm gonna
find out tonight.

17:00.061 --> 17:02.938
Find out tonight, but could we stay off
the business and have a good time?

this is a celebration.

cannot wait to get into that party?,

down better than Cristal?

the champagne too.

about, Drama?

faith and not doubt me?

19:54.694 --> 19:58.196
You are absolutely right, Vince.
l am sorry. Let's bury the hatchet.

19:58.281 --> 20:00.949
Happy to, as soon as you tell me why you
sent my client that script.

20:01.033 --> 20:03.201
lf you knew Vince
the way l knew Vince,

20:03.286 --> 20:05.203
you'd know how badly
he wants that movie.

20:05.496 --> 20:07.873
- That movie is gone.
- Really?

20:07.957 --> 20:09.416
Benicio is doing it, Ari.

20:09.500 --> 20:11.418
Benicio is falling out of
love with it, Vince.

20:11.502 --> 20:14.212
- That's not what l'm hearing.
- Your ears were always tiny, Amanda.

20:14.297 --> 20:16.214
You don't know what
the fuck you're talking about.

20:16.299 --> 20:18.884
- He's messing with your head.
- Wanna bet your client on it?

20:18.968 --> 20:21.469
Tell you what: if it's true,
Vince goes with me.

20:21.596 --> 20:23.305
l don't bet my clients.

20:23.389 --> 20:24.890
l thought you didn't even
want me back, Ari?

20:25.016 --> 20:28.059
Yeah, l thought you were acting as a
friend. See, you're never what you seem.

20:28.144 --> 20:29.686
Eric, Vince, l need
to talk to you alone.

20:29.770 --> 20:31.563
- So do l.
- Okay, listen,

20:31.647 --> 20:34.065
because this is the deal.
l will not play this game.

20:34.817 --> 20:36.484
Vince, you decide right now
who you're with.

20:36.569 --> 20:38.945
- Me or him, period.
- l'm with you, Amanda.

20:39.030 --> 20:41.031
- Ari is just a friend. Right, Ari?
- Yes.

20:41.240 --> 20:44.242
And as a friend for many years,
l am asking you

20:44.327 --> 20:47.329
to take one minute
alone with me. Please.

20:48.623 --> 20:51.041
One minute.
One.

20:53.210 --> 20:56.671
- Don't worry, he'll be fine.
- l'm not worried, Eric.

20:57.006 --> 20:58.632
l'm annoyed.

21:01.469 --> 21:02.552
lt sounds like a great show.

21:02.637 --> 21:04.679
l'm just shocked l haven't heard
anything about it.

21:04.764 --> 21:07.724
Clearly you must not work in
the business. What do you do?

21:08.309 --> 21:10.101
l'm a writer for
"The Hollywood Reporter."

21:10.770 --> 21:12.228
But don't take it
personally.

21:12.313 --> 21:14.064
l write about movies
and l rarely watch TV.

21:14.273 --> 21:15.607
Me neither!

21:16.025 --> 21:17.859
l know you better
than she does.

21:17.944 --> 21:19.527
l know everything
that you need.

21:19.654 --> 21:21.905
l can get you anything
that you want

21:22.031 --> 21:24.950
and l can't sit back
and watch you piss away

21:25.034 --> 21:26.368
your whole career
like this.

21:26.452 --> 21:28.662
Ari, you said you just wanted
to be friends.

21:29.997 --> 21:31.206
l lied.
(CHUCKLES)

21:31.874 --> 21:34.751
l can't just be friends.
l just can't.

21:34.835 --> 21:37.504
Jesus. You think you're the only one
who can help me?

21:37.588 --> 21:40.966
l had a goal for you when we first
started. We didn't reach that goal.

21:41.050 --> 21:43.551
We can go out and get
"Medellin" right fucking now.

21:43.678 --> 21:45.971
l swear to God we can
do it, Vinnie.

21:46.055 --> 21:47.889
You just can't stand
to lose, Ari.

21:48.015 --> 21:51.476
l think that's what it is. l mean,
you've got your big agency now,

21:51.560 --> 21:53.895
and your hundreds
of clients, but still--

21:53.980 --> 21:56.690
losing hurts you so much
that you--

21:57.274 --> 21:59.901
you're willing to do anything
no matter how stupid it makes you look.

21:59.986 --> 22:02.070
No, Vinnie, l care so much

22:02.154 --> 22:04.531
that l don't care how stupid
it makes me look.

22:04.615 --> 22:07.617
Ari, you need to move on.
l have.

22:08.744 --> 22:10.954
Hey, they're looking
for you, Vince.

22:11.038 --> 22:12.247
They're ready
for the cake.

22:13.749 --> 22:15.417
We're still friends
though, right?

22:15.501 --> 22:18.837
Yeah. We will
always be friends.

22:19.046 --> 22:21.464
Good.
Come on, Ari.

22:21.549 --> 22:22.841
Let me buy you a slice.

22:22.925 --> 22:24.968
No cake for me.
Getting mean and lean.

22:25.177 --> 22:27.762
- This is the hungry Ari Gold.
- All right, come on.

22:27.847 --> 22:30.932
- He'll be back, hack.
- You want me to walk you to your car?

22:31.267 --> 22:33.893
This town's not safe
for a bitch.

- Make a good wish, Vince!
- Great one.

22:59.670 --> 23:02.797
Hey, don't forget about me, bro!
l had your back all year.

23:02.923 --> 23:04.549
You want me to put you
in my wish, Johnny?

23:04.800 --> 23:06.259
lf you don't mind.

23:06.343 --> 23:08.636
What do you want him to wish for, Drama?
That someone recognizes you?

23:08.721 --> 23:11.014
First of all, you don't say what you
want your wish to be out loud,

23:11.098 --> 23:12.515
you dumb fuck.
Second,

23:12.600 --> 23:16.061
l think Vince can figure out a more
rewarding wish to fulfill for me.

23:16.145 --> 23:18.104
Don't worry, l'm gonna wish
for what l always wish for--

23:18.189 --> 23:19.564
that we all
have a great year!

23:20.816 --> 23:23.359
You said it out loud!
You fucked us all.

23:25.196 --> 23:27.405
Whoa! Don't blow
anything out yet.

23:27.490 --> 23:30.325

- Vince. Happy birthday, buddy.
- E.

23:44.965 --> 23:46.758
- Good fucking party?.
- So, birthday boy,

23:46.842 --> 23:48.593
just got word
from Sam Mendes's people.

23:48.677 --> 23:51.054
They want to skip a meeting
and go right to an offer.

23:51.138 --> 23:53.848
Nice! l like the new team.
lt's gonna be a good year.

23:53.933 --> 23:57.769
l agree, but actually, l think we should
hold off on "Glimpses" for a while

23:57.853 --> 23:59.854
just in case Ari's right.
