1
00:00:09,070 --> 00:00:11,391
How the fuck does
something like this happen?

2
00:00:11,950 --> 00:00:14,032
How does an elephant just die?

3
00:00:14,350 --> 00:00:17,274
He was very old and depressed.

4
00:00:17,750 --> 00:00:19,639
He'd recently been rescued from the circus,

5
00:00:19,710 --> 00:00:22,600
but as it turns out,
he actually really loved performing.

6
00:00:22,670 --> 00:00:24,479
Who gives a fuck about the elephant?

7
00:00:24,830 --> 00:00:27,515
What about me? This does not look good.

8
00:00:27,590 --> 00:00:30,161
I'm having a bit of trouble
figuring out how to remove him.

9
00:00:30,230 --> 00:00:32,756
- He weighs 9,000 pounds.
- Cut it up.

10
00:00:33,510 --> 00:00:34,955
Take it out in pieces.

11
00:00:35,030 --> 00:00:38,716
I don't mean to interrupt,
but I could call in a personal favor

12
00:00:38,830 --> 00:00:42,391
and get a helo crew out of Travis AFB
with a Sikorsky Skycrane to airlift it out

13
00:00:42,470 --> 00:00:43,995
and drop it in the ocean right after dark.

14
00:00:44,350 --> 00:00:45,875
No muss, no fuss.

15
00:00:46,630 --> 00:00:49,873
There. Was that so hard, Patrice?
Because Hoover sure didn't think so.

16
00:00:50,110 --> 00:00:52,033
I mean, I just found my footing again,

17
00:00:52,390 --> 00:00:55,553
and you put me in danger of losing it all
over some fucking elephant?

18
00:00:56,870 --> 00:01:00,158
Gavin, you always said that here at Hooli,

19
00:01:00,230 --> 00:01:04,121
in order to achieve greatness,
we must first achieve goodness.

20
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:05,391
Right.

21
00:01:05,710 --> 00:01:07,394
- So?
- So...

22
00:01:09,110 --> 00:01:11,477
I was a bridesmaid at Sean Parker's wedding

23
00:01:11,550 --> 00:01:14,474
when he handed out live bunnies
as plush toys.

24
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:15,871
That wasn't goodness.

25
00:01:16,350 --> 00:01:17,476
It was badness.

26
00:01:18,230 --> 00:01:19,231
And so is this.

27
00:01:20,030 --> 00:01:23,557
You're using endangered animals
just to make points at board meetings.

28
00:01:23,630 --> 00:01:26,361
I'm drawing thoughtful,
zoological comparisons.

29
00:01:27,070 --> 00:01:30,199
But couldn't you just show them
a picture of these animals?

30
00:01:30,270 --> 00:01:33,274
A simple Hooli search
would yield thousands of choices.

31
00:01:33,350 --> 00:01:37,196
Patrice, I thank you for your honesty,
and I will repay you with my own.

32
00:01:37,470 --> 00:01:39,632
I honestly never want to see you
in my offices again.

33
00:01:40,070 --> 00:01:41,151
You're fired.

34
00:01:42,030 --> 00:01:44,795
- Hoover, scramble that Skycrane.
- Yes, sir.

35
00:01:57,670 --> 00:02:00,241
Please, come in. Come in. Have a seat.

36
00:02:00,510 --> 00:02:03,195
I won't take a lot of your time. I promise.

37
00:02:03,790 --> 00:02:05,758
- Okay.
- Would you like some tea?

38
00:02:06,110 --> 00:02:07,635
I can put a kettle on the hot plate.

39
00:02:08,670 --> 00:02:11,355
- Oh, no, I'm fine. Thank you.
- There's no trouble.

40
00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:13,717
You know what,
I have a box of Russell Stovers

41
00:02:14,110 --> 00:02:17,080
- if the spiders didn't get into 'em.
- Jared, is this about the fake users?

42
00:02:19,470 --> 00:02:20,471
You know?

43
00:02:20,550 --> 00:02:23,633
Two days ago, I wanted to look at
user behavior to figure out

44
00:02:23,710 --> 00:02:26,759
what spurred the sudden uptick,
and well, I noticed something.

45
00:02:27,150 --> 00:02:30,791
Almost all of our new users were
just uploading a single photo

46
00:02:30,870 --> 00:02:31,996
into a shared folder,

47
00:02:32,310 --> 00:02:34,233
and then the next day,
they would take the photo out

48
00:02:34,310 --> 00:02:37,632
and then put it back in
the day after that and that's it.

49
00:02:38,110 --> 00:02:40,636
You know, just enough to qualify
as a daily active user.

50
00:02:40,710 --> 00:02:42,235
Classic click-farm behavior.

51
00:02:42,310 --> 00:02:43,914
And then I remembered our conversation
in the bathtub,

52
00:02:43,990 --> 00:02:45,992
and it just had to be you.

53
00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:48,472
Richard, I am so sorry.

54
00:02:48,830 --> 00:02:50,480
- It's okay.
- Would it make you feel better to...

55
00:02:50,550 --> 00:02:52,279
- ... to strike me?
- No.

56
00:02:52,350 --> 00:02:54,921
You had good intentions, Jared.
Honestly, don't give it another thought.

57
00:02:54,990 --> 00:02:56,355
Just, you know...

58
00:02:57,070 --> 00:03:00,677
You and I right now are the only ones
that know about it, okay?

59
00:03:01,510 --> 00:03:03,353
And in a few weeks,
when we run out of money,

60
00:03:03,430 --> 00:03:04,716
this will all be over anyway.

61
00:03:05,870 --> 00:03:07,998
- Richard?
- Yes?

62
00:03:08,990 --> 00:03:10,355
We have a secret.

63
00:03:11,830 --> 00:03:13,116
Yeah.

64
00:03:14,990 --> 00:03:16,196
I mean, I swear to God,

65
00:03:16,270 --> 00:03:18,716
your dicks would have blown
out of the back of your assholes

66
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:20,599
if you had been there, hand to God.

67
00:03:20,670 --> 00:03:23,913
- Hey, guys. What's going on?
- Richard, sit down. I did it.

68
00:03:24,230 --> 00:03:25,720
I saved the company.

69
00:03:26,190 --> 00:03:27,680
What do you... What? How?

70
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:31,279
- Jared, have you been crying?
- Yes, but for ordinary reasons.

71
00:03:31,590 --> 00:03:33,115
- Please, go on.
- Okay.

72
00:03:33,190 --> 00:03:34,680
I was at The Rosewood for lunch.

73
00:03:34,750 --> 00:03:37,276
I mean, it was the lunch hour.
I was there, I wasn't eating, the usual.

74
00:03:37,350 --> 00:03:39,637
So, I walk over to Andreessen
and I say something funny,

75
00:03:39,710 --> 00:03:41,758
but he stone-faces me.

76
00:03:42,550 --> 00:03:43,517
What did you say?

77
00:03:43,590 --> 00:03:45,592
It doesn't matter.
The point is, it was hilarious,

78
00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:48,116
but he gave me nothing
and neither did his friends.

79
00:03:48,630 --> 00:03:50,473
Then I realized why.

80
00:03:51,230 --> 00:03:54,040
- You're not funny?
- No, Gilfoyle, but that is.

81
00:03:54,790 --> 00:03:58,237
No, it's that everybody thinks
Pied Piper is in this death spiral,

82
00:03:58,310 --> 00:04:00,551
so it would be inappropriate to laugh
at my hysterical joke.

83
00:04:01,030 --> 00:04:02,191
And it hits me.

84
00:04:03,030 --> 00:04:04,441
I know something that they don't.

85
00:04:04,870 --> 00:04:06,998
I know about the uptick.

86
00:04:07,950 --> 00:04:09,918
- The uptick?
- Yes, the uptick.

87
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:14,672
- The recent sudden surge in users.
- Oh, yeah. That.

88
00:04:14,750 --> 00:04:17,481
Yes, that. So, while our fortune is rising,

89
00:04:17,590 --> 00:04:19,274
everybody else thinks that it's plummeting,

90
00:04:19,350 --> 00:04:22,320
and I can use these opposing forces

91
00:04:22,590 --> 00:04:25,753
to a multiplying effect like a slingshot,
and then I make a decision.

92
00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:27,917
I'm gonna make a move.

93
00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:31,759
So, I say something cryptic about the uptick,
and I walk away.

94
00:04:32,070 --> 00:04:34,072
- What did you say?
- I don't know. I can't remember.

95
00:04:34,190 --> 00:04:36,841
But I walk over and I see
McNamee's having the short rib,

96
00:04:36,910 --> 00:04:38,878
which I hear is delicious but not too heavy,

97
00:04:38,950 --> 00:04:40,076
and then I say to him,

98
00:04:40,150 --> 00:04:42,721
"You're gonna have to tuck in your tie-dye
if you want to eat here."

99
00:04:45,150 --> 00:04:46,879
- How's that relevant?
- It's not.

100
00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:49,430
But the people that I just walked away from
don't know that.

101
00:04:49,510 --> 00:04:53,640
All they know is that I'm over there
exchanging witty banter with McNamee,

102
00:04:53,750 --> 00:04:55,161
and about what, they don't know.

103
00:04:55,230 --> 00:04:56,959
It's all that they do want to know.

104
00:04:57,430 --> 00:04:59,034
And then, it settles in.

105
00:04:59,830 --> 00:05:00,956
FOMO.

106
00:05:01,310 --> 00:05:03,039
The fear of missing out.

107
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:05,432
Suddenly, it feels like time is slowing down.

108
00:05:05,510 --> 00:05:08,081
I could see every move I was going to make,
12 steps ahead.

109
00:05:08,150 --> 00:05:10,801
It was like I was Bobby Fischer
if he could really fuck.

110
00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:12,952
I go outside,
I walk across the street to Greylock,

111
00:05:13,030 --> 00:05:14,316
I check in on Instagram,

112
00:05:14,390 --> 00:05:17,155
Vinod Khosla calls me,
asks me what I doing there.

113
00:05:17,230 --> 00:05:19,631
I say, "I can't talk right now.
Call me at Wood Opal."

114
00:05:20,470 --> 00:05:22,871
Well, he does, and then suddenly
Wood Opal is going,

115
00:05:22,950 --> 00:05:25,271
"What's Khosla got going on with Bachman?"

116
00:05:25,350 --> 00:05:28,001
Meanwhile, I'm taking a leak
at a Restoration Hardware.

117
00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:29,879
I jack off a little bit. I don't cum.

118
00:05:30,270 --> 00:05:31,920
And then it snowballs.

119
00:05:32,150 --> 00:05:36,155
I deftly played Ross Lorna
against Index Ventures.

120
00:05:36,230 --> 00:05:39,120
And because of that, the big kahuna bites.

121
00:05:40,310 --> 00:05:41,391
Sequoia.

122
00:05:41,470 --> 00:05:45,077
I spend the next 20 minutes
denying calls from Jim Goetz,

123
00:05:45,150 --> 00:05:46,561
over and over.

124
00:05:46,630 --> 00:05:49,076
And yes, I'm jacking off,
but I don't need to ejaculate

125
00:05:49,150 --> 00:05:51,630
because by the time I listen to the messages,

126
00:05:51,710 --> 00:05:56,159
I've got offers, I've got counters,
I've got counter-counters.

127
00:05:56,510 --> 00:05:57,557
I cum.

128
00:05:58,990 --> 00:06:00,230
When the dust settled,

129
00:06:01,830 --> 00:06:05,039
and the losers went home,
all that was left was this.

130
00:06:06,110 --> 00:06:07,271
"Hello, Mr. Bachman.

131
00:06:07,670 --> 00:06:11,356
"Coleman Blair Partners
would like to offer Pied Piper

132
00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:15,151
"a Series B round of $6 million

133
00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:18,040
"on a $60 million valuation."

134
00:06:19,070 --> 00:06:20,071
Oh.

135
00:06:21,630 --> 00:06:22,631
Yeah.

136
00:06:22,710 --> 00:06:24,280
Holy shit.

137
00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:27,111
And this asshole wanted
to pivot to video-chat.

138
00:06:27,190 --> 00:06:28,316
Still valid.

139
00:06:28,430 --> 00:06:30,751
Although less sexy now, I'll concede that.

140
00:06:30,830 --> 00:06:32,036
It's my Mona Lisa.

141
00:06:32,470 --> 00:06:34,393
And the entire cornerstone

142
00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:37,760
upon which I built
this motherfucking cathedral

143
00:06:37,830 --> 00:06:39,878
that I will forever be remembered for

144
00:06:39,950 --> 00:06:44,114
was this beautiful little uptick.

145
00:06:46,350 --> 00:06:48,159
I think I have a bottle
of Cold Duck in the crisper.

146
00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:49,561
Who's drinking? Come on!

147
00:06:49,630 --> 00:06:51,280
I got a bottle of Martinelli's for you, Jared.

148
00:06:51,350 --> 00:06:53,830
This is a big day!

149
00:06:53,950 --> 00:06:56,999
We did it! Yes!

150
00:06:57,150 --> 00:06:58,754
- Are there any wine coolers?
- I'll talk to him.

151
00:06:58,830 --> 00:06:59,956
I'll talk 110 him.

152
00:07:00,590 --> 00:07:01,921
Here's my Hooli badge.

153
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:05,274
And I have a hanging tag

154
00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:07,398
on my rear-view mirror
for the parking structure.

155
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:10,960
- Can I just mail that in?
- No, you need to go get that now.

156
00:07:11,750 --> 00:07:12,990
Okay.

157
00:07:36,830 --> 00:07:38,036
Hey, Dinesh.

158
00:07:38,110 --> 00:07:40,351
I'm just looking for Erlich.
Have you seen him?

159
00:07:40,430 --> 00:07:42,876
Oh, he went to the liquor store.
Gotta keep the party going, you know?

160
00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:44,793
Oh, yeah. Yeah, Series B. Crazy, right?

161
00:07:44,870 --> 00:07:46,076
- Oh, it's unreal.
- Yeah.

162
00:07:46,670 --> 00:07:48,752
Almost like some of our users.

163
00:07:51,030 --> 00:07:52,191
What?

164
00:07:52,470 --> 00:07:55,519
- What does that mean?
- Oh, "Unreal" has so many meanings.

165
00:07:55,590 --> 00:07:57,638
Fake, paid for,

166
00:07:57,710 --> 00:08:00,600
one person in Bangladesh
pretending to be 6,000.

167
00:08:01,150 --> 00:08:02,800
Okay. Uh...

168
00:08:03,670 --> 00:08:04,956
- All right, Dinesh...
- Oh, no.

169
00:08:05,790 --> 00:08:07,201
I don't want to know a fucking thing.

170
00:08:07,830 --> 00:08:09,116
Okay then. Great.

171
00:08:10,070 --> 00:08:13,358
I won't tell you anything
because nothing happened.

172
00:08:13,790 --> 00:08:15,633
- Great.
- Okay.

173
00:08:17,230 --> 00:08:20,552
But if something did happen,
and we're not saying it did,

174
00:08:20,630 --> 00:08:22,075
the fact remains

175
00:08:22,150 --> 00:08:24,118
that leaves us in
a very advantageous position.

176
00:08:24,190 --> 00:08:25,919
There's a lot of money on the table.

177
00:08:26,910 --> 00:08:28,799
And it would be a shame if that went away.

178
00:08:28,870 --> 00:08:30,031
You know what else
would be a shame...

179
00:08:31,310 --> 00:08:35,599
ls if I couldn't find my flash drive.
Gilfoyle, have you seen my flash drive?

180
00:08:35,670 --> 00:08:38,071
Right, the one with the zombie script on it?

181
00:08:38,150 --> 00:08:41,393
Why, yes, the zombie script
that randomizes user action

182
00:08:41,470 --> 00:08:43,359
in platforms such as Pied Piper.

183
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:46,877
You mean so that
fake users and click farms would be

184
00:08:46,950 --> 00:08:49,601
absolutely indistinguishable from real users?

185
00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:50,876
Oh, I suppose.

186
00:08:50,950 --> 00:08:52,998
I mean, especially during due diligence,

187
00:08:53,070 --> 00:08:55,801
like the kind done by VCs
or possible future reviews

188
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:58,641
done by certain regulatory bodies.

189
00:08:59,430 --> 00:09:01,512
It also had photos of my auntie.

190
00:09:03,070 --> 00:09:05,721
- Anyway, Gilfoyle, have you seen it?
- I have not.

191
00:09:06,190 --> 00:09:09,000
Hmm. Well, Richard,
keep an eye out for it, will ya?

192
00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:21,072
Hey, Gilfoyle, you wanna come inside
and help me get a new flash drive

193
00:09:21,150 --> 00:09:24,632
- on www.staples.com?
- Yeah, I think...

194
00:09:24,710 --> 00:09:26,200
- ... we're sort of done with the ruse.
- Okay.

195
00:09:26,270 --> 00:09:29,513
Okay, fine.
Well, whatever you did or didn't do,

196
00:09:30,150 --> 00:09:32,630
- that was serial-killer-level shit.
- Agreed.

197
00:09:33,110 --> 00:09:35,192
I think I finally respect you as a CEO.

198
00:09:39,710 --> 00:09:40,871
Fuck.

199
00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:52,235
- This is fraud.
- Is it?

200
00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:56,753
I mean, our platform does
exactly what we say it does.

201
00:09:57,430 --> 00:10:00,673
Okay? It's not like we're lying about it
like fucking Theranos.

202
00:10:00,990 --> 00:10:03,357
And if our platform works,
which we know it will,

203
00:10:03,430 --> 00:10:06,434
we will make them billions of dollars.

204
00:10:06,510 --> 00:10:08,797
Everybody wins, Jared.
You still believe that, right?

205
00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:11,919
That, if given enough time,
the platform will catch on?

206
00:10:12,510 --> 00:10:15,161
Richard, don't weaponize my faith in you
against me.

207
00:10:15,230 --> 00:10:18,120
Your faith made all this possible.

208
00:10:18,590 --> 00:10:19,637
It's wrong.

209
00:10:19,710 --> 00:10:21,519
Well, every time I try to do the right thing,
I get fucked.

210
00:10:22,110 --> 00:10:23,316
And if I do the right thing here,

211
00:10:24,110 --> 00:10:25,236
we're done. That's it.

212
00:10:25,310 --> 00:10:26,880
Doesn't seem like much of an option, does it?

213
00:10:30,950 --> 00:10:33,078
Dang, they're all just so good.

214
00:10:34,430 --> 00:10:36,432
Gavin, CJ Cantwell, line one.

215
00:10:37,030 --> 00:10:38,600
Dang, let's pick this up tomorrow.

216
00:10:41,670 --> 00:10:44,799
- CJ.
- I'm finishing a story I'd love a comment on.

217
00:10:44,870 --> 00:10:49,319
It's about the death of an unpermitted
Indian elephant named Maurice,

218
00:10:49,390 --> 00:10:52,553
in your sculpture garden
and its subsequent illegal dumping

219
00:10:52,630 --> 00:10:53,961
in the San Francisco Bay.

220
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:57,358
- That's preposterous.
- Mmm, I have a very good source.

221
00:10:59,190 --> 00:11:00,635
What do you propose we do here?

222
00:11:01,190 --> 00:11:02,476
Well, I have one idea.

223
00:11:03,070 --> 00:11:04,640
And what, pray tell, might that be?

224
00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:09,117
CJ sold the blog for $2 million.

225
00:11:09,190 --> 00:11:10,999
No shit.

226
00:11:11,550 --> 00:11:12,836
Bachmanity rides again.

227
00:11:12,910 --> 00:11:14,241
Well, not exactly.

228
00:11:14,670 --> 00:11:17,913
Uh, I called Big Head to tell him that
our share was worth half a mil each,

229
00:11:18,190 --> 00:11:22,673
and not five minutes later,
his father, one Nelson Bighetti Sr.,

230
00:11:23,110 --> 00:11:25,033
called me and explained that
I was never to have

231
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:29,513
any financial dealings with his son
in perpetuity, ever,

232
00:11:29,750 --> 00:11:31,593
or he would get very Italian on me.

233
00:11:32,350 --> 00:11:34,432
And I'm not interested
to find out what that means.

234
00:11:34,950 --> 00:11:38,318
- Okay. Shall we?
- To Coleman Blair! Let's close this fucker.

235
00:11:38,390 --> 00:11:39,551
Good luck, fellas.

236
00:12:06,150 --> 00:12:08,437
Remember, you just sit there and look pretty.

237
00:12:09,190 --> 00:12:10,760
Leave all the talking to me.

238
00:12:10,830 --> 00:12:14,994
And if you mention my Montblanc,
then don't make it overt, like I told you to.

239
00:12:15,070 --> 00:12:16,151
But do.

240
00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:19,351
Oh.

241
00:12:19,950 --> 00:12:20,997
Hey, what's up?

242
00:12:21,070 --> 00:12:23,118
Are you guys out raising money
from someone else?

243
00:12:23,910 --> 00:12:26,277
Oh, Monica,
it's kind of a long story.

244
00:12:26,350 --> 00:12:27,511
Why are you whispering?

245
00:12:28,710 --> 00:12:30,439
Oh, my God,
you're there right now, aren't you?

246
00:12:31,070 --> 00:12:32,481
Jesus! Do you have any idea

247
00:12:32,550 --> 00:12:34,473
how big of an asshole
you're making me look here?

248
00:12:34,550 --> 00:12:36,757
Laurie just lost her shit at me, okay?

249
00:12:36,830 --> 00:12:39,151
So, you need to turn around
and walk the hell out of there.

250
00:12:39,710 --> 00:12:41,758
Erlich put all this together.
I really had nothing to do with it.

251
00:12:41,830 --> 00:12:45,073
You have everything to do with it.
You're the fucking CEO, Richard.

252
00:12:45,150 --> 00:12:48,120
Whatever your company does is 100% on you.

253
00:12:48,350 --> 00:12:49,431
Gentlemen.

254
00:12:51,110 --> 00:12:53,317
- They're ready for you.
- Oh. Yes. I gotta go.

255
00:12:53,390 --> 00:12:55,518
Do not hang up on me. Richard, do not...

256
00:12:57,270 --> 00:12:58,795
So listen, we're pumped, guys.

257
00:12:58,870 --> 00:13:01,919
We're thrilled to be getting into Pied Piper
right at this inflection point.

258
00:13:02,030 --> 00:13:04,795
- It's very exciting.
- We are pumped as well. Aren't we, Richard?

259
00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:07,080
- Richard. Pumped.
- Hmm? Pumped.

260
00:13:07,150 --> 00:13:09,357
- We are pumped up.
- Pumped up. Mmm-hmm.

261
00:13:09,430 --> 00:13:12,513
So we'll just need
your John Hancock right here.

262
00:13:12,590 --> 00:13:16,072
Oh, sure, Richard. You can use my Montblanc.

263
00:13:17,230 --> 00:13:18,880
Oh, the, uh...

264
00:13:19,070 --> 00:13:23,359
This is an actual term sheet.
And once I sign this... That's it, right?

265
00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:24,761
Yup. No turning back.

266
00:13:27,950 --> 00:13:30,521
You can have your lawyers vet
the actual stock purchase agreement

267
00:13:30,590 --> 00:13:33,275
once we close here just to make sure
no one is pulling any funny business.

268
00:13:33,350 --> 00:13:36,001
- No, no.
- No, my lawyer is in jail, so.

269
00:13:37,830 --> 00:13:38,877
So.

270
00:13:47,630 --> 00:13:49,314
Oh, my God. I, uh...

271
00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:52,435
Wow, I can't believe
I didn't think of this before,

272
00:13:52,950 --> 00:13:54,918
because, well, let me put it to you this way.

273
00:13:54,990 --> 00:13:58,836
What would you say if I told you that
the same compression that you know and love

274
00:13:58,910 --> 00:14:02,119
is being used in a world-beating,
game-changing, wait for it...

275
00:14:03,750 --> 00:14:05,718
Video-conferencing application?

276
00:14:06,350 --> 00:14:08,512
Wouldn't that be interesting?

277
00:14:10,990 --> 00:14:12,913
- What?
- You mean like Hooli-Chat?

278
00:14:12,990 --> 00:14:15,436
This will be far superior to Hooli-Chat.

279
00:14:15,510 --> 00:14:17,274
You may want to fund that instead.

280
00:14:17,430 --> 00:14:20,400
In fact, why don't I just go home,
I'll grab my laptop,

281
00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:22,120
I'll come back here, I'll show it to you guys.

282
00:14:22,190 --> 00:14:23,680
- It's not that far. I don't mind...
- Richard...

283
00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:25,161
- I'll tell you what, I'll grab an Uber.
- No, no, no.

284
00:14:25,230 --> 00:14:27,278
- It's no problem.
- Richard, what the fuck are you doing?

285
00:14:27,350 --> 00:14:28,317
There. I've ordered it.

286
00:14:28,390 --> 00:14:30,597
Neal is in a blue Kia Sportage
and he's right around the corner.

287
00:14:30,670 --> 00:14:31,910
All right, all right. Look, look, look.

288
00:14:31,990 --> 00:14:34,277
I don't know who else you're talking to
about the platform,

289
00:14:34,350 --> 00:14:38,241
but I'm willing to go up to
seven million on 70.

290
00:14:38,310 --> 00:14:40,677
Okay? But that's it.
You sign this thing, right here, right now.

291
00:14:41,190 --> 00:14:42,954
Bravo, Richard. Nice neg.

292
00:14:43,390 --> 00:14:44,551
Now sign it.

293
00:14:44,950 --> 00:14:46,361
Thank you. Very generous of you.

294
00:14:47,190 --> 00:14:50,273
I just want to make sure that
you're aware of all the feedback

295
00:14:50,350 --> 00:14:52,273
'cause we had some focus groups
and there were some issues.

296
00:14:52,390 --> 00:14:53,755
Just so you're clear,

297
00:14:54,390 --> 00:14:56,961
people have been wondering,
"Ah! Where are my files?

298
00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:59,476
- Richard, Richard...
- "Zero K used? Where's the download button?

299
00:14:59,550 --> 00:15:01,200
- "The Terminator..."
- All right, all right, you know what?

300
00:15:01,270 --> 00:15:03,159
- 'Cause it...
- I'm gonna sign it. Can I sign it? I'll sign it.

301
00:15:03,230 --> 00:15:06,234
You can if you want,
but we still need his signature.

302
00:15:11,750 --> 00:15:13,115
Richard, sign it.

303
00:15:13,630 --> 00:15:15,314
That's two years of runway.

304
00:15:15,590 --> 00:15:16,921
- Sign it now!
- I can't.

305
00:15:17,590 --> 00:15:19,752
- Why the fuck not?
- Because the numbers are fake.

306
00:15:21,190 --> 00:15:22,271
What?

307
00:15:23,070 --> 00:15:24,913
- What? What do you mean? What do you...
- We bought...

308
00:15:26,350 --> 00:15:29,354
Fake users from a Bangladeshi click farm.

309
00:15:30,590 --> 00:15:31,796
The uptick was fake.

310
00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:36,037
But the vid-chat...

311
00:15:37,430 --> 00:15:38,511
is real.

312
00:15:38,830 --> 00:15:41,356
Erlich, the fake users were
just meant to cheer the guys up.

313
00:15:41,430 --> 00:15:43,080
I had no idea you were
gonna take those numbers...

314
00:15:43,190 --> 00:15:44,476
And what, and go do my fucking job?

315
00:15:44,550 --> 00:15:46,678
Pour everything I had
into getting the best possible

316
00:15:46,750 --> 00:15:48,878
deal for Pied Piper because I believe in them?

317
00:15:49,350 --> 00:15:50,590
Well, that's all over now.

318
00:15:50,670 --> 00:15:53,037
Richard, we are fucked!

319
00:15:53,630 --> 00:15:56,918
In the amount of time that it took for us to get
from that office to right here,

320
00:15:56,990 --> 00:15:58,833
every VC in the Valley knows about this.

321
00:15:58,910 --> 00:16:01,356
If I signed those term sheets,
I would be committing fraud.

322
00:16:01,430 --> 00:16:02,670
That's a fucking crime.

323
00:16:02,950 --> 00:16:04,076
You're saying you wanted me to...

324
00:16:04,150 --> 00:16:06,073
No, I wanted you to fucking think about that

325
00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:08,152
before you paraded me
around the whole fucking Valley

326
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:09,675
to sell your lie.

327
00:16:09,750 --> 00:16:12,594
And then suddenly grew
a thick, girthy conscience

328
00:16:12,670 --> 00:16:13,751
and fucked me with it.

329
00:16:13,830 --> 00:16:14,877
Are you Richard?

330
00:16:15,630 --> 00:16:17,155
- Did you order an Uber?
- Oh, no.

331
00:16:19,510 --> 00:16:22,241
All you had to do was
keep your fucking mouth shut

332
00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:23,755
and sign that piece of paper.

333
00:16:24,470 --> 00:16:26,154
We would have fixed it afterwards.

334
00:16:26,950 --> 00:16:28,475
But you didn't. You caked your pants.

335
00:16:29,190 --> 00:16:32,558
No, better yet, you caked my pants.
Fuck you, Richard Hendricks.

336
00:16:32,630 --> 00:16:33,756
Fuck you.

337
00:16:35,390 --> 00:16:37,074
Richard Hendricks, huh?

338
00:16:37,150 --> 00:16:38,481
Prick.

339
00:16:45,630 --> 00:16:48,201
- Hey.
- Oh, hey, Monica.

340
00:16:48,270 --> 00:16:51,877
Is Richard here? I heard what happened,
but he's not answering any of my calls.

341
00:16:51,950 --> 00:16:53,679
We just wanted you to know for the record

342
00:16:53,750 --> 00:16:57,072
that we had no idea
any of that stuff was going on.

343
00:16:57,150 --> 00:16:58,800
Still trying to wrap our heads around it.

344
00:16:59,430 --> 00:17:02,036
Point is, don't beat yourself up
about not seeing it.

345
00:17:02,110 --> 00:17:03,919
I'm not beating myself up...

346
00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:06,152
I hope you don't think
we're guilty by association,

347
00:17:06,230 --> 00:17:08,756
because then we would have to think
you're guilty by association.

348
00:17:08,990 --> 00:17:09,991
Which We don't.

349
00:17:10,230 --> 00:17:12,437
Just want to let you know
that we would definitely work

350
00:17:12,510 --> 00:17:13,955
with you again in the future.

351
00:17:14,030 --> 00:17:16,192
It's good to know, guys. Thanks.

352
00:17:17,270 --> 00:17:18,510
Um, is he in his room?

353
00:17:18,590 --> 00:17:20,718
I mean, he said he was.

354
00:17:22,110 --> 00:17:23,191
But...

355
00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:26,474
I'm gonna go to his room.

356
00:17:26,590 --> 00:17:27,637
Mmm-hmm.

357
00:17:29,070 --> 00:17:30,071
Ugh!

358
00:17:30,470 --> 00:17:31,471
What's up, Gleb?

359
00:17:31,590 --> 00:17:33,797
I hear Richard shit bed, huh?

360
00:17:34,870 --> 00:17:37,714
So, the platform is no—

361
00:17:38,190 --> 00:17:40,192
Fuck, now the vid-chat's fucking up.

362
00:17:41,150 --> 00:17:43,471
Odd, considering who wrote the code for it.

363
00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:45,712
Not the code. The server is overloaded.

364
00:17:46,110 --> 00:17:48,431
How is that possible?
We only gave it to, like, 12 people.

365
00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:51,521
Well, there's a few more than that
using it now.

366
00:17:52,630 --> 00:17:53,677
Holy shit.

367
00:17:53,990 --> 00:17:56,561
For what it's worth, Richard,
I think you did the right thing.

368
00:17:57,230 --> 00:17:59,995
And I can see now why you didn't
want to come to us for funding.

369
00:18:00,070 --> 00:18:01,515
You were trying to protect us.

370
00:18:01,950 --> 00:18:03,076
Yeah.

371
00:18:03,270 --> 00:18:04,920
Well, I really appreciate it.

372
00:18:05,070 --> 00:18:06,071
Uh...

373
00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:07,436
Laurie wants out.

374
00:18:08,230 --> 00:18:11,313
Even a whiff of fraud is a mortal sin for VCs.

375
00:18:11,870 --> 00:18:14,237
She needs to wash her hands
of any Pied Piper business.

376
00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:15,711
She's forcing a sale.

377
00:18:16,550 --> 00:18:17,551
Fuck.

378
00:18:17,750 --> 00:18:19,275
Yeah, frick.

379
00:18:20,230 --> 00:18:21,231
Yeah.

380
00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:22,681
But it is an open auction,

381
00:18:22,750 --> 00:18:24,878
and, you know,
between the fraudulent numbers

382
00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:27,681
and the real numbers,

383
00:18:27,750 --> 00:18:29,673
you guys aren't exactly killing it out there.

384
00:18:29,750 --> 00:18:31,912
So, there is a chance that no one will bid

385
00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:33,719
and you might be able to
buy back your own company

386
00:18:33,790 --> 00:18:34,951
for next to nothing.

387
00:18:35,070 --> 00:18:38,995
That will have to be for literally nothing
because we're out of money.

388
00:18:42,910 --> 00:18:43,911
Ow!

389
00:18:44,270 --> 00:18:45,601
Jesus! Are you okay?

390
00:18:45,950 --> 00:18:47,076
Yeah, we're fine.

391
00:18:48,550 --> 00:18:52,032
All right, I spun together a few more servers.
That should handle the traffic.

392
00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:55,871
Look at this.
There are 157 people using it near Gleb.

393
00:18:55,950 --> 00:18:58,601
And 400 people using it near Tara in Boston.

394
00:18:58,990 --> 00:19:01,118
Yeah, I told her to give it to
her Satanist friends out there.

395
00:19:01,630 --> 00:19:02,756
Looks like she did.

396
00:19:02,830 --> 00:19:05,401
She knows 400 Satanists in Boston?

397
00:19:06,550 --> 00:19:08,917
The Catholic church really did
a number on that town.

398
00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:15,318
Hey, Erlich, remember when Gilfoyle said that
my video-chat app was a piece of shit

399
00:19:15,390 --> 00:19:16,915
and that nobody would ever use it?

400
00:19:17,310 --> 00:19:20,473
Well, he was wrong. Over 4,000 times. Tsk.

401
00:19:20,950 --> 00:19:23,760
Wow. And you developed that
with the Pied Piper IP, right?

402
00:19:24,470 --> 00:19:25,995
Well, then you can kiss that goodbye.

403
00:19:27,310 --> 00:19:28,391
Oh, fuck.

404
00:19:28,470 --> 00:19:33,158
Speaking of, I'm actually using
the first dollars of my blog windfall

405
00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:35,358
on a trip to Kainchi Dham Ashram

406
00:19:35,430 --> 00:19:37,239
in Nainital, India,

407
00:19:37,310 --> 00:19:41,793
where Steve Jobs famously sought peace
and came up with the idea

408
00:19:41,870 --> 00:19:43,679
for a little product he called

409
00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:45,197
the Lisa.

410
00:19:45,990 --> 00:19:47,037
Good luck.

411
00:19:48,950 --> 00:19:53,353
Richard, I'll expect you off the premises
by end of day.

412
00:19:53,990 --> 00:19:55,355
Monica.

413
00:19:57,550 --> 00:19:59,075
- I'll see you later.
- Okay.

414
00:19:59,550 --> 00:20:01,279
You know, you can stay here for one year.

415
00:20:01,790 --> 00:20:03,758
- Free rent.
- Jian-Yang!

416
00:20:07,070 --> 00:20:08,231
Laurie.

417
00:20:09,550 --> 00:20:10,551
Oh.

418
00:20:11,230 --> 00:20:12,391
Gavin.

419
00:20:12,470 --> 00:20:13,710
You know Jack, of course.

420
00:20:14,510 --> 00:20:15,841
That is correct.

421
00:20:16,350 --> 00:20:18,751
Gavin, can we address
the elephant in the room?

422
00:20:20,230 --> 00:20:21,959
- Sorry?
- Pied Piper.

423
00:20:22,550 --> 00:20:24,473
Right. Yes, of course.

424
00:20:24,550 --> 00:20:26,552
I am forcing a sale.

425
00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:30,160
Your Maleant dealings demonstrate
that you're still pursuing middle-out.

426
00:20:30,270 --> 00:20:32,159
Might you be interested in placing a bid?

427
00:20:32,270 --> 00:20:34,193
Why would he want to bail out Raviga?

428
00:20:34,270 --> 00:20:37,558
You said it yourself,
our compression play is thriving.

429
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:41,074
- Fair enough.
- You know what? I'm a completionist.

430
00:20:41,550 --> 00:20:45,396
Even if I buy it just to throw it in the garbage,
I'd like to be the one to drive the final nail

431
00:20:45,470 --> 00:20:46,756
in the Hendricks coffin.

432
00:20:46,870 --> 00:20:48,076
I'll give you...

433
00:20:49,430 --> 00:20:50,875
Nine hundred dollars for it?

434
00:20:51,550 --> 00:20:53,473
- I believe that is a joke.
- You know what?

435
00:20:53,830 --> 00:20:55,514
I like nice, round numbers.

436
00:20:56,350 --> 00:20:57,476
Make it...

437
00:20:58,430 --> 00:20:59,716
A million?

438
00:21:00,430 --> 00:21:01,716
A million dollars?

439
00:21:01,790 --> 00:21:05,511
Gavin Belson gets to buy
Pied Piper for a million dollars

440
00:21:05,590 --> 00:21:08,480
and Raviga gets all of it because
of their liquidation preference

441
00:21:08,550 --> 00:21:09,676
and I get jack shit?

442
00:21:09,750 --> 00:21:11,593
Is that what you're telling me? God damn it.

443
00:21:12,030 --> 00:21:14,317
I know this is the last way
that you wanted it to end.

444
00:21:14,630 --> 00:21:15,791
I'm really sorry.

445
00:21:15,870 --> 00:21:18,157
Yeah, well, I'll see you at the meeting.

446
00:21:18,870 --> 00:21:19,996
Is that Hooli-Chat?

447
00:21:20,430 --> 00:21:22,512
They fix it or something?
That didn't look shitty at all.

448
00:21:22,790 --> 00:21:25,634
Actually, it's ours.
The guys hacked it together.

449
00:21:25,710 --> 00:21:28,475
- I can send you an invite if you want.
- Yeah. Cool. Thanks.

450
00:21:28,550 --> 00:21:31,679
- We got up to 4K users totally organically.
- Oh.

451
00:21:31,790 --> 00:21:33,474
Oh, shit, 7K now.

452
00:21:35,310 --> 00:21:37,790
Wow, we should have been
focusing on this instead.

453
00:21:37,990 --> 00:21:39,037
Not that it matters.

454
00:21:39,110 --> 00:21:41,954
I mean, it's all gonna be property
of Gavin Belson in an hour, so.

455
00:21:42,390 --> 00:21:43,630
That's ironic, huh?

456
00:21:44,630 --> 00:21:46,280
No, for real, I'm asking. Is it?

457
00:21:47,150 --> 00:21:48,390
I don't know. I was just smiling.

458
00:21:49,150 --> 00:21:50,197
Feels ironic.

459
00:21:52,150 --> 00:21:53,959
Hey, so thank you for...

460
00:21:54,470 --> 00:21:56,074
- Letting me stay here.
- No worries.

461
00:21:56,190 --> 00:21:58,158
Steve says you're welcome to
take my spot on the couch

462
00:21:58,230 --> 00:22:00,801
until you can find a job
and get your own place.

463
00:22:00,870 --> 00:22:02,076
Thanks.

464
00:22:02,150 --> 00:22:04,517
So, when's your dad coming to pick you up?

465
00:22:05,390 --> 00:22:06,596
A couple of hours, I guess.

466
00:22:06,670 --> 00:22:09,560
Then we're turning right around
and going back to Phoenix.

467
00:22:09,630 --> 00:22:13,396
You know, he said he wants to be able
to keep an eye on me and my money

468
00:22:13,470 --> 00:22:17,236
and that I need to get a real job
to learn the value of a hard day's night

469
00:22:17,310 --> 00:22:18,675
or something like that.

470
00:22:19,470 --> 00:22:22,201
Well, I should probably get going
to this board meeting.

471
00:22:22,910 --> 00:22:25,834
And you're probably gonna be gone
when I'm back, so...

472
00:22:27,070 --> 00:22:28,879
- Guess this is it.
- Yeah, I guess so.

473
00:22:29,270 --> 00:22:30,317
See ya.

474
00:22:30,750 --> 00:22:31,751
Oh...

475
00:22:32,630 --> 00:22:33,995
- Okay.
- Okay.

476
00:22:34,070 --> 00:22:36,118
- All right. Cool, man.
- There we go.

477
00:22:44,150 --> 00:22:46,756
Richard, even though
it's the last board meeting

478
00:22:46,830 --> 00:22:48,594
and essentially meaningless,

479
00:22:49,510 --> 00:22:52,275
thank you for letting me be a part of it.
It's an honor.

480
00:22:52,670 --> 00:22:54,434
Okay, you don't have to keep saying that.

481
00:22:57,190 --> 00:22:58,874
Good day, all. This should be brief.

482
00:22:59,350 --> 00:23:02,877
The only item on the agenda is,
of course, the authorization

483
00:23:02,950 --> 00:23:04,759
of the sale of Pied Piper
to the current high bidder.

484
00:23:04,830 --> 00:23:06,639
Three "yes" votes will approve the sale.

485
00:23:06,710 --> 00:23:09,361
And as Raviga controls
three of the board seats,

486
00:23:09,470 --> 00:23:10,801
- it seems...
- I'm sorry.

487
00:23:12,990 --> 00:23:15,072
- I'm not doing it.
- Oh, Monica, not again.

488
00:23:15,150 --> 00:23:17,551
I'm sorry, but look,
Richard has worked too hard

489
00:23:17,630 --> 00:23:19,792
and I know that I can't stop it,
but I'm not gonna vote

490
00:23:19,870 --> 00:23:22,271
to let Pied Piper become
the property of that asshole.

491
00:23:22,350 --> 00:23:25,832
Monica, I also happen
to find him contemptible.

492
00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:28,881
But Pied Piper will be sold
to the high bidder, period.

493
00:23:28,990 --> 00:23:30,230
You know what? I don't care.

494
00:23:30,870 --> 00:23:32,315
You want to fire me, fire me.

495
00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:35,917
If we're not gonna adhere to the values
that Peter Gregory instilled,

496
00:23:36,230 --> 00:23:38,631
- then I don't think I belong here.
- Monica, you don't have to do this.

497
00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:40,832
- I'm not voting yes.
- Very well. You're off the board.

498
00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:43,674
Excuse me. Man.

499
00:23:45,470 --> 00:23:47,996
- Do you work here?
- Well, it was my first day actually.

500
00:23:48,070 --> 00:23:49,754
- Everybody's been super...
- Sit.

501
00:23:49,830 --> 00:23:52,720
You are now officially on
the board of directors of Pied Piper.

502
00:23:53,230 --> 00:23:57,155
- Oh, okay. That's fine I guess...
- When I point to you, you will vote yes.

503
00:23:57,230 --> 00:23:59,437
Now, I move to vote on the sale of Pied Piper.

504
00:23:59,750 --> 00:24:00,876
I vote yes.

505
00:24:01,710 --> 00:24:04,077
- I vote yes.
- And Evan.

506
00:24:06,350 --> 00:24:07,511
Evan?

507
00:24:09,070 --> 00:24:11,357
- I can't do it.
- What? Why?

508
00:24:11,750 --> 00:24:12,956
Because“.

509
00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:15,311
Monica?

510
00:24:16,590 --> 00:24:17,796
I love you.

511
00:24:17,870 --> 00:24:19,360
There. I said it.

512
00:24:20,110 --> 00:24:21,555
And I could never do anything
to make you sad.

513
00:24:21,630 --> 00:24:24,031
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Do I have to pull the receptionist in here?

514
00:24:24,110 --> 00:24:26,112
How does this compare
with a typical board meeting?

515
00:24:26,190 --> 00:24:29,000
All right, stop. Everybody, just stop.

516
00:24:29,070 --> 00:24:31,118
We all know how this is gonna go,
so let's just get it over with.

517
00:24:31,190 --> 00:24:32,237
All right?

518
00:24:33,230 --> 00:24:35,801
I vote yes. There. Okay? I approve the sale.

519
00:24:36,150 --> 00:24:38,630
Three "yes" votes.
Can this please just be done?

520
00:24:38,950 --> 00:24:39,951
Very well.

521
00:24:40,030 --> 00:24:41,600
- I vote yes also.
- Irrelevant.

522
00:24:42,710 --> 00:24:44,951
- But thank you.
- The sale is approved.

523
00:24:45,030 --> 00:24:47,351
Pied Piper, its IP, and all of its assets

524
00:24:47,430 --> 00:24:50,036
are now officially the property
of Bachmanity, LLC.

525
00:24:52,030 --> 00:24:53,998
Wait, sorry, did...

526
00:24:54,630 --> 00:24:56,473
Did you just say "Bachmanity"?

527
00:24:57,750 --> 00:25:01,391
- As in Erlich Bachman and Nelson Bighetti?
- Yes, you know them.

528
00:25:02,350 --> 00:25:04,671
Wait, they had the highest bid?

529
00:25:05,470 --> 00:25:08,599
I received a telephone call
approximately 30 minutes ago

530
00:25:08,670 --> 00:25:11,913
entering a bid of one million and one dollars
with a firm no-shop clause.

531
00:25:11,990 --> 00:25:15,233
So, when you were referring to
the person who bought Pied Piper

532
00:25:15,310 --> 00:25:19,201
as a contemptible asshole,
you were talking about Erlich?

533
00:25:19,990 --> 00:25:23,153
To which contemptible asshole
did you think I was referring?

534
00:25:23,750 --> 00:25:24,751
Gavin Belson.

535
00:25:25,190 --> 00:25:26,191
Oh.

536
00:25:27,510 --> 00:25:29,160
I see. No.

537
00:25:30,230 --> 00:25:33,313
This meeting is adjourned.
I thank you all for your time.

538
00:25:36,830 --> 00:25:39,481
So, Bachmanity it is.

539
00:25:42,230 --> 00:25:43,561
That's good.

540
00:25:44,150 --> 00:25:46,881
So, should we give this thing a shot?

541
00:25:59,550 --> 00:26:01,200
You and Big Head, huh?

542
00:26:03,790 --> 00:26:04,791
Um...

543
00:26:05,390 --> 00:26:07,631
Sorry you had to cancel your trip.

544
00:26:08,710 --> 00:26:11,031
And look, I really appreciate all this.

545
00:26:11,550 --> 00:26:15,111
I really think this video-chat thing
is gonna be something, you know?

546
00:26:15,190 --> 00:26:17,238
- I don't know if you've seen the numbers.
- You want a number?

547
00:26:18,230 --> 00:26:20,676
The percentage I give a fuck about you, zero.

548
00:26:20,990 --> 00:26:22,071
It's trending steady.

549
00:26:22,510 --> 00:26:24,000
And of course I've seen the numbers.

550
00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:26,952
This is a business opportunity. Nothing more.

551
00:26:27,310 --> 00:26:30,519
Big Head was your friend.
He was the one that talked me into it.

552
00:26:33,150 --> 00:26:34,720
I don't trust you, Richard Hendricks.

553
00:26:36,590 --> 00:26:40,993
And it's gonna take a long, long, long time
to regain my trust.

554
00:26:41,430 --> 00:26:42,591
Are we clear?

555
00:26:44,750 --> 00:26:47,640
Are we absolutely clear...

556
00:26:47,710 --> 00:26:50,919
Always blue! Always blue!
Always blue! Always blue!

557
00:26:50,990 --> 00:26:52,674
Always blue! Always blue!

558
00:26:52,750 --> 00:26:53,911
Always blue!

559
00:26:55,710 --> 00:26:58,759
- You suck.
- Oh, fuck, it's my dad again.

560
00:26:59,110 --> 00:27:02,000
He's gotta be so pissed.
I can't believe this is happening, you guys.

561
00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:04,198
I mean, I guess now
we're a video-chat company,

562
00:27:04,270 --> 00:27:06,398
but the best part of it is it's us, you know?

563
00:27:06,470 --> 00:27:08,359
Just us controlling our own destiny.

564
00:27:08,430 --> 00:27:11,274
No, the best part of it is that I own 50%.

565
00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:14,759
Well, yes, you and Big Head
do own the entire company,

566
00:27:14,830 --> 00:27:16,719
but I am the founder, it's my algorithm,

567
00:27:16,790 --> 00:27:19,111
so I'm assuming I'm getting
my original shares back, right?

568
00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:20,680
Why would you assume that?

569
00:27:20,750 --> 00:27:24,232
Well, when a tech company reboots,
it's normal to have a conversation

570
00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:26,079
about restructuring the cap table.

571
00:27:26,150 --> 00:27:29,233
Good, 'cause I'm the guy that hacked together
the video-chat app

572
00:27:29,310 --> 00:27:31,312
to see if that woman was hot, so...

573
00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:35,396
Yeah, but it's not gonna scale until
I get in there and scrape all the Dinesh off.

574
00:27:35,470 --> 00:27:38,599
Well, Laurie still hasn't called me back,
so I may need a new job.

575
00:27:39,070 --> 00:27:41,835
And I'm assuming Pied Piper
can't afford my salary,

576
00:27:41,950 --> 00:27:43,315
so I'll need stock.

577
00:27:43,390 --> 00:27:46,439
Do we really want it to be called
Pied Piper anymore?

578
00:27:46,510 --> 00:27:48,592
No, yes, of course. Of course we want...

579
00:27:48,670 --> 00:27:50,399
Why do we want to change the name?
It's great.

580
00:27:50,470 --> 00:27:52,711
Yeah, and we do already have the jackets.

581
00:27:52,790 --> 00:27:55,316
Big. Head.

582
00:27:56,750 --> 00:27:57,831
Big Head.

583
00:27:58,990 --> 00:28:00,037
Go for Erlich.

584
00:28:00,110 --> 00:28:03,114
Erlich Bachman, this is you as an old man.

585
00:28:03,990 --> 00:28:07,312
I'm ugly and I'm dead. Alone.

586
00:28:09,030 --> 00:28:11,636
I'm gonna let him have this one. All right...

587
00:28:11,710 --> 00:28:14,680
Well, I'm sorry to hear that, future me.
What a terrible thing.

588
00:28:14,750 --> 00:28:16,320
I'll talk to you in several years.

589
00:28:16,390 --> 00:28:17,437
You're up.

590
00:28:17,510 --> 00:28:19,433
Always blue! Always blue!

591
00:28:19,510 --> 00:28:23,595
Always blue! Always blue!

592
00:28:23,670 --> 00:28:26,401
Always blue! Always blue! Always blue!
