"Who are you?" |
| 00:00:52 |
It's a simple one, right? |
| 00:00:55 |
No. No, not really. |
| 00:00:56 |
Because if it was, |
| 00:01:00 |
You people are going |
| 00:01:06 |
So, you are going to write |
| 00:01:10 |
And guess what? |
| 00:01:11 |
You'll start the first thing |
| 00:01:13 |
You're gonna get up, |
| 00:01:14 |
and you are going to tell |
| 00:01:17 |
a bit about yourself, |
| 00:01:22 |
"Who... |
| 00:01:24 |
"am... |
| 00:01:28 |
...I?" |
| 00:01:35 |
I shall see you all again |
| 00:01:59 |
Journal entry, day one. |
| 00:02:03 |
My name is Jack Giamoro. |
| 00:02:05 |
I live in Malibu, California, |
| 00:02:10 |
Nina is... |
| 00:02:13 |
Nina is... |
| 00:02:15 |
a good swimmer. |
| 00:02:17 |
She likes to swim. |
| 00:02:19 |
We've been married four years, |
| 00:02:21 |
and she's a very... |
| 00:02:26 |
strong swimmer. |
| 00:02:28 |
My father, Ben Giamoro, |
| 00:02:32 |
Dad was a movie producer in the '60s, |
| 00:02:34 |
mostly low-budget |
| 00:02:36 |
science fiction stuff. |
| 00:02:38 |
It wasn't what he wanted to do, |
| 00:02:39 |
but he was strong and bullheaded |
| 00:02:41 |
and people loved him. |
| 00:02:46 |
Six months, |
| 00:02:48 |
Dad had a stroke |
| 00:02:52 |
Dad's... |
| 00:02:56 |
Dad is getting better. |
| 00:02:59 |
I am a talent agent. |
| 00:03:01 |
I help talented people navigate their dreams |
| 00:03:07 |
I specialize in handling |
| 00:03:11 |
people that would be much better suited |
| 00:03:18 |
Some mornings I get to work |
| 00:03:21 |
I'm good and calm, relaxed, |
| 00:03:24 |
ready to face whatever |
| 00:03:32 |
Some mornings I get stuck in traffic, though. |
| 00:03:34 |
I get stuck in traffic, |
| 00:03:35 |
and I sit there and think about my life, |
| 00:03:37 |
about the world, |
| 00:03:39 |
about what's out there |
| 00:03:42 |
to test me, to destroy me. |
| 00:03:46 |
On these days, |
| 00:03:53 |
End of Journal entry. |
| 00:04:00 |
Good morning. |
| 00:04:08 |
Partner meeting in ten minutes. |
| 00:04:09 |
I got it. |
| 00:04:10 |
Hey, Jack, you need anything? |
| 00:04:12 |
No, I'm fine, thank you. |
| 00:04:13 |
Hey, you see the game yesterday? |
| 00:04:14 |
It was a good shot. |
| 00:04:15 |
Last minute. |
| 00:04:17 |
Lucky, get out. |
| 00:04:30 |
I think my wife |
| 00:04:34 |
I don't know who it is, |
| 00:04:36 |
but I think my wife may be |
| 00:04:49 |
Partner meeting. |
| 00:04:51 |
Yeah, I'm coming. |
| 00:04:55 |
Be right there. |
| 00:04:58 |
All right. |
| 00:05:00 |
We're waiting for you, Jack. |
| 00:05:01 |
Are you gonna sit down? |
| 00:05:02 |
I've got an 11:30 at NBC. |
| 00:05:04 |
Start. |
| 00:05:05 |
You're a tragic figure. |
| 00:05:08 |
Do you have that David Lilly lunch today? |
| 00:05:09 |
Yeah, I do, but it's not a lock, |
| 00:05:12 |
You'll sign him. |
| 00:05:13 |
I IMDB'd him last night. |
| 00:05:15 |
The guy's created seven hit series |
| 00:05:18 |
He's way too hot for us |
| 00:05:20 |
He's a bucket of money, Jack. |
| 00:05:22 |
I'm aware of that, |
| 00:05:24 |
I appreciate it. |
| 00:05:24 |
I'm Just saying he took the meeting with me |
| 00:05:27 |
So, while I guarantee you |
| 00:05:29 |
it may not be today |
| 00:05:32 |
- Calm down. |
| 00:05:33 |
what's this adult ed class |
| 00:05:38 |
Where did you hear about that? |
| 00:05:40 |
What class are you taking? |
| 00:05:42 |
What is that for? |
| 00:05:44 |
It's a self-exploration technique. |
| 00:05:46 |
It's meant to make me |
| 00:05:48 |
I'll probably be recommending |
| 00:05:50 |
Oh, come on. |
| 00:05:51 |
You got us in karate, |
| 00:05:52 |
Kabbalah meetings, |
| 00:05:55 |
Any chance you're gonna |
| 00:05:56 |
so I can sit home one night |
| 00:05:58 |
I don't shit-can things. |
| 00:06:01 |
Why don't you Just go to therapy |
| 00:06:03 |
Why don't we start the meeting? |
| 00:06:05 |
How about that? |
| 00:06:06 |
Hey! Put the phone down. |
| 00:06:09 |
Who'd you tell I was |
| 00:06:10 |
Did you tell Arlene's assistant? |
| 00:06:11 |
- The truth? |
| 00:06:12 |
I think I did. |
| 00:06:13 |
Lucky, you... |
| 00:06:15 |
That's my private business. |
| 00:06:16 |
I don't like my personal business |
| 00:06:19 |
As a blanket rule, |
| 00:06:20 |
anything about my life ever, okay? |
| 00:06:23 |
Who else did you tell? |
| 00:06:24 |
- The truth? |
| 00:06:27 |
David Lilly's assistant. |
| 00:06:28 |
Oh, my God! |
| 00:06:29 |
They wanted to switch lunch |
| 00:06:32 |
I don't know how |
| 00:06:34 |
You have the common sense |
| 00:06:35 |
If I didn't have so much to do |
| 00:06:40 |
Mom, I gotta go. |
| 00:06:55 |
So, Jack, |
| 00:06:56 |
what is up with you and this |
| 00:06:59 |
Come on, man. |
| 00:07:03 |
That's... that's funny that you ask. |
| 00:07:06 |
That's... |
| 00:07:07 |
Just something |
| 00:07:09 |
to try to understand |
| 00:07:11 |
Look, man, you know, |
| 00:07:14 |
I love writers. |
| 00:07:16 |
That's my life. |
| 00:07:17 |
I always wanted to be a writer, |
| 00:07:19 |
I'm not good enough and... you are. |
| 00:07:22 |
L... Look, I gotta ask you something. |
| 00:07:26 |
And think about this |
| 00:07:30 |
David, are you happy? |
| 00:07:35 |
Well, I'm not doing |
| 00:07:36 |
as writing a morning diary. |
| 00:07:39 |
But, yeah. |
| 00:07:42 |
You don't have to dress |
| 00:07:43 |
to write in that thing, do you? |
| 00:07:49 |
That's funny. |
| 00:08:11 |
- Hey. |
| 00:08:12 |
- How was your day? |
| 00:08:15 |
How was |
| 00:08:17 |
It was good. |
| 00:08:22 |
Bob Saget was funny. |
| 00:08:24 |
Where'd you go after that? |
| 00:08:26 |
You did? |
| 00:08:28 |
Yeah. |
| 00:08:30 |
That's weird. |
| 00:08:31 |
My cell phone was on all night. |
| 00:08:33 |
Coverage in this city |
| 00:08:35 |
What's up with that? |
| 00:08:40 |
Should I read this? |
| 00:08:41 |
No! I don't need |
| 00:08:44 |
I don't need to read |
| 00:08:45 |
You know why? |
| 00:08:46 |
Because there's nothing in them. |
| 00:08:48 |
They're empty, boring, |
| 00:08:55 |
First week always is. |
| 00:08:57 |
Short staccato sentences |
| 00:09:03 |
It's what you know about |
| 00:09:06 |
Your postman knows |
| 00:09:10 |
I want more. |
| 00:09:12 |
This week, I want secrets. |
| 00:09:17 |
Things other people don't know. |
| 00:09:19 |
Things you don't know... yet. |
| 00:09:23 |
Because, you see, |
| 00:09:25 |
the clues to who you are |
| 00:09:30 |
It's like hidden gold under |
| 00:09:36 |
Nobody wants to dig through it. |
| 00:09:38 |
It's in there. The truth. |
| 00:09:40 |
Waiting patiently under |
| 00:09:43 |
that is the build-up |
| 00:09:51 |
So... |
| 00:09:54 |
go in and get it, people. |
| 00:09:56 |
Dig for the truth. |
| 00:09:59 |
And people, please. |
| 00:10:01 |
Spelling. It's important. |
| 00:10:03 |
Get it right. |
| 00:10:06 |
So... |
| 00:10:11 |
I'll see you next week. |
| 00:10:22 |
Hey, Dad. |
| 00:10:23 |
Hey. |
| 00:10:27 |
You're up. |
| 00:10:29 |
This was your mother's favorite show. |
| 00:10:54 |
I waited too long to marry. |
| 00:10:56 |
I should have done it in my twenties. |
| 00:11:02 |
I'm too set in my ways. |
| 00:11:04 |
I've treated Nina |
| 00:11:07 |
one of the things I've struggled for, |
| 00:11:09 |
my clients, my abdomen. |
| 00:11:13 |
I work harder on my abdomen |
| 00:11:17 |
You know why? |
| 00:11:18 |
Because this will be |
| 00:11:20 |
Because every |
| 00:11:22 |
would be devoted |
| 00:11:25 |
Come on, David. |
| 00:11:26 |
You said you'd think about it. |
| 00:11:27 |
You're unrepresented right now. |
| 00:11:29 |
Yeah, Jack, |
| 00:11:31 |
and I'm gonna pass |
| 00:11:34 |
All right. |
| 00:11:36 |
That's perfectly reasonable. |
| 00:11:38 |
But will you |
| 00:11:40 |
of passing to me in person |
| 00:11:41 |
on the floor of |
| 00:11:43 |
Hold on a second, okay? |
| 00:11:47 |
- Brynn. |
| 00:11:48 |
You have play rehearsal tonight? |
| 00:11:51 |
- Why? Who is that? |
| 00:11:53 |
He wants to know if I want |
| 00:11:54 |
Come on. |
| 00:11:56 |
He knows you left your agent. |
| 00:11:58 |
He Just wants to sign you. |
| 00:11:59 |
What's going on? |
| 00:12:01 |
Tell him you have to |
| 00:12:04 |
Listen, Jack, I'm sorry. |
| 00:12:06 |
Brynn is in this play, |
| 00:12:08 |
so I'm stuck with the kids. |
| 00:12:10 |
The kids. |
| 00:12:12 |
- Game over. |
| 00:12:14 |
It's more important than any of this. |
| 00:12:15 |
Listen, buddy, I would benefit |
| 00:12:17 |
What's he saying? |
| 00:12:19 |
So, Just selfishly, |
| 00:12:22 |
Okay, Jack. |
| 00:12:23 |
Thank you. Okay. |
| 00:12:26 |
All right, I'll talk to you soon. |
| 00:12:27 |
Take care of yourself. |
| 00:12:30 |
Piece of shit. |
| 00:12:33 |
Well, he trumped you with |
| 00:12:35 |
By the way, the Laker game? |
| 00:12:38 |
You sound like a fool saying that. |
| 00:12:39 |
Every agency has got |
| 00:12:43 |
Anyway, you've got a bigger problem |
| 00:12:46 |
Phil Balow. |
| 00:12:47 |
The puppy here was asleep at the wheel. |
| 00:12:48 |
Whoa, the puppy was not |
| 00:12:51 |
- What happened? |
| 00:12:53 |
He hasn't returned one |
| 00:12:55 |
Phil Balow's not calling me back? |
| 00:12:57 |
Jeez, I must have been so crazy, |
| 00:12:58 |
I didn't even notice. |
| 00:12:59 |
Didn't we send him something? |
| 00:13:00 |
That was last month |
| 00:13:02 |
Phil moved downtown? |
| 00:13:03 |
Yeah. Him and Sela |
| 00:13:05 |
I guess they think the Westside |
| 00:13:08 |
Downtown? |
| 00:13:09 |
Yeah, I don't get it either. |
| 00:13:10 |
You know what? |
| 00:13:11 |
I don't really get any of this, but, Jack, |
| 00:13:15 |
It's amazing watching |
| 00:13:17 |
Thanks, Fineberg. |
| 00:13:18 |
You're the best partner |
| 00:13:20 |
Sounds to me like you're |
| 00:13:22 |
Goddamn it. |
| 00:13:33 |
Phil Balow was the creator |
| 00:13:35 |
The DiPsy Doodle Show. |
| 00:13:38 |
I can't afford a problem with Phil. |
| 00:13:40 |
It's all a math equation. |
| 00:13:41 |
I'm me because at any given time, |
| 00:13:44 |
Hey. |
| 00:13:46 |
Jack! Jesus! |
| 00:13:48 |
Did I catch you |
| 00:13:49 |
No. Well, yeah. |
| 00:13:52 |
No, you know, we're Just in the middle of, |
| 00:13:55 |
Sure, sure. |
| 00:13:56 |
What's up? |
| 00:13:57 |
You haven't returned |
| 00:13:59 |
It's not like you, Phil. |
| 00:14:00 |
I Just want to make sure |
| 00:14:01 |
Yeah, no, yeah. |
| 00:14:04 |
I'm good. No, I'm fine. |
| 00:14:05 |
- You happy? |
| 00:14:08 |
Yes, yes, no. |
| 00:14:10 |
- Yeah. Yeah, no. |
| 00:14:12 |
It's all good, right? |
| 00:14:14 |
I mean, that's the thing, right? |
| 00:14:15 |
But... right. |
| 00:14:17 |
But you know what? |
| 00:14:20 |
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. |
| 00:14:21 |
- So... Okay. |
| 00:14:22 |
- Okay, man. |
| 00:14:23 |

| 00:14:25 |
I'll talk to you soon. |
| 00:14:26 |
Okay. Okay. |
| 00:14:28 |
- Looks good. |
| 00:14:30 |
So, we can't say "vulva," |
| 00:14:36 |
I don't understand. |
| 00:14:39 |
Now, is it the product? |
| 00:14:40 |
Is it because of Volvo |
| 00:14:55 |
You have one new message. |
| 00:15:02 |
Hey, Jack, it's Phil. |
| 00:15:05 |
It was tough today |
| 00:15:06 |
Something's going on. |
| 00:15:08 |
And it's Just not like me. |
| 00:15:09 |
We've got to sit down. |
| 00:15:11 |
You know, we been through |
| 00:15:14 |
and let's talk in the morning. |
| 00:15:16 |
Okay, we should talk. |
| 00:15:19 |
He's leaving the agency. |
| 00:15:23 |
What a life. |
| 00:15:48 |
Jack! Jack! |
| 00:16:05 |
L... I love these fish. |
| 00:16:08 |
They... they make me happy. |
| 00:16:13 |
Sorry. |
| 00:16:18 |
How about some trousers? |
| 00:16:20 |
Okay. |
| 00:16:25 |
Yes. |
| 00:16:50 |
Jack. |
| 00:16:51 |
Yes? |
| 00:16:58 |
I've been sleeping with Phil. |
| 00:17:04 |
It Just happened. |
| 00:17:07 |
He was obsessed with me. |
| 00:17:09 |
And we'd get together and... |
| 00:17:13 |
I lost control |
| 00:17:15 |
But it's over, Jack. |
| 00:17:20 |
I'm so sorry. |
| 00:17:24 |
So that's what he's |
| 00:17:27 |
Because I told him that |
| 00:17:31 |
I made such a huge mistake, |
| 00:17:33 |
I'm so sorry. |
| 00:17:35 |
I love you so much, Jack. |
| 00:17:39 |
I love you so much. |
| 00:17:57 |
Nina came along at |
| 00:18:00 |
where all I did was work... |
| 00:18:01 |
work and plan |
| 00:18:04 |
I became bigger than life. |
| 00:18:06 |
I became rich and famous. |
| 00:18:08 |
But I never smiled. |
| 00:18:10 |
For five years, I never |
| 00:18:14 |
Steven Bochco is on line two. |
| 00:18:17 |
Tell Bochco you'll call him back, Jack. |
| 00:18:18 |
I'm going to a photo shoot |
| 00:18:21 |
I can't. I swamped. |
| 00:18:22 |
Get unswamped. |
| 00:18:26 |
Tell Bochco I'll call him back. |
| 00:18:27 |
That's what I thought you'd say. |
| 00:19:04 |
Nina brought the light back. |
| 00:19:06 |
It was dark, |
| 00:19:09 |
and the only difference was Nina. |
| 00:19:14 |
- Look. You like it? |
| 00:19:16 |
I can paint or sew or whatever. |
| 00:19:20 |
It's a room for me. |
| 00:19:23 |
Do you like it? |
| 00:19:24 |
Yeah, it's great. |
| 00:19:25 |
You have built-ins and everything. |
| 00:19:26 |
- I know. |
| 00:19:28 |
That's not important. |
| 00:19:29 |
- That's not important? |
| 00:19:31 |
- It's important to me. |
| 00:19:32 |
I think it's important. |
| 00:19:33 |
I'll figure out some way |
| 00:19:35 |
You will? |
| 00:19:39 |
Nina's on line one. |
| 00:19:41 |
Tell her I'm not here. |
| 00:19:45 |
Guys, we need to talk |
| 00:19:48 |
We need to prepare for these meetings. |
| 00:19:50 |
We aren't prepared. |
| 00:19:51 |
You guys spend the entire meeting |
| 00:19:54 |
That's only because |
| 00:19:55 |
talking about your little |
| 00:19:57 |
If I got one-third of |
| 00:19:59 |
I'd be the happiest man |
| 00:20:01 |
You'd be the |
| 00:20:02 |
I'd be the first, 'cause you'd be |
| 00:20:07 |
We have a Phil Balow problem. |
| 00:20:12 |
Excuse me? |
| 00:20:16 |
He's been sleeping with my wife. |
| 00:20:22 |
Okay, all right, |
| 00:20:25 |
If that's the problem, |
| 00:20:26 |
who hasn't been sleeping |
| 00:20:28 |
So have I. |
| 00:20:29 |
Me, too. |
| 00:20:32 |
She confessed to me yesterday, |
| 00:20:34 |
Apparently, it's been |
| 00:20:36 |
Now, I'm telling you |
| 00:20:40 |
as my best friends, |
| 00:20:42 |
I don't have to give |
| 00:20:45 |
Oh, my God, Jack. |
| 00:20:46 |
If this is true, I'm so sorry. |
| 00:20:49 |
I don't know what to say. |
| 00:20:51 |
Jack, this is true? |
| 00:20:52 |
Yeah. |
| 00:20:53 |
Apparently, she broke it off with him, |
| 00:20:54 |
but it may have been |
| 00:20:56 |
Jesus Christ, Jack. |
| 00:20:57 |
Is there anything we |
| 00:21:00 |
Well, you can support my decision |
| 00:21:05 |
You're kidding, right? |
| 00:21:07 |
You don't want to drop Phil. |
| 00:21:09 |
He's about to re-up his deal. |
| 00:21:11 |
He's starting a new show. |
| 00:21:12 |
You Just told me the other day |
| 00:21:14 |
If it does half of |
| 00:21:17 |
we're looking at a package |
| 00:21:18 |
that could be in the tens |
| 00:21:20 |
Jack, you need to |
| 00:21:22 |
Okay? You need to get |
| 00:21:24 |
But don't do this, please. |
| 00:21:27 |
I can take him on day-to-day. |
| 00:21:28 |
You don't even have to |
| 00:21:31 |
He is fucking my wife! |
| 00:21:34 |
What is it you guys |
| 00:21:37 |
His name is off the client list! |
| 00:21:39 |
Jack, come on. |
| 00:21:41 |
You're taking this really personal. |
| 00:21:49 |
That's the closet, Jack. |
| 00:21:52 |
Who designed this room? |
| 00:21:54 |
The closet door looks |
| 00:21:56 |
And we're supposed to |
| 00:21:58 |
We keep making all these |
| 00:21:59 |
but nothing ever gets done, so... |
| 00:22:13 |
I know what you're thinking. |
| 00:22:14 |
I hate it when you start |
| 00:22:17 |
Jack, you love this woman, |
| 00:22:19 |
You want my advice? |
| 00:22:20 |
Because I know she loves you, too. |
| 00:22:21 |
She has been sucking |
| 00:22:25 |
Does she expect me |
| 00:22:27 |
'Cause that's not gonna happen. |
| 00:22:27 |
You'll stop on your way home. |
| 00:22:29 |
You'll grab some Listerine. |
| 00:22:30 |
She'll have a nice gargle |
| 00:22:32 |
and then you'll figure |
| 00:22:33 |
That's great relationship |
| 00:22:35 |
who doesn't have a living plant |
| 00:22:37 |
I have plants. |
| 00:22:39 |
Did they send you in here |
| 00:22:41 |
Is that what this is all about? |
| 00:22:42 |
Give me a little credit, Jack. |
| 00:22:44 |
Arlene, tell the truth, |
| 00:22:47 |
like you do when |
| 00:22:48 |
Did they send you in here |
| 00:22:50 |
Yes, but... |
| 00:22:51 |
- Get out. |
| 00:22:52 |
- Get out. |
| 00:22:53 |
I gave it a shot. |
| 00:22:55 |
Thought you might want to try to act |
| 00:22:59 |
Not today, I don't. |
| 00:23:06 |
Lucky, who do you know with a truck |
| 00:23:09 |
Oh, man, |
| 00:23:11 |
I don't think I know |
| 00:23:13 |
My uncle's out of work. |
| 00:23:16 |
He's got a truck, |
| 00:23:18 |
All right. |
| 00:23:19 |
Call your uncle, |
| 00:23:20 |
You're spending |
| 00:23:29 |
Uncle Jimmy, hey. |
| 00:23:30 |
This is Mr. Giamoro. |
| 00:23:32 |
- How you doing? |
| 00:23:35 |
We grew up together. |
| 00:23:36 |
Valley High, right? |
| 00:23:37 |
I was in your brother |
| 00:23:41 |
Jimmy Dooley. |
| 00:23:43 |
Good, good. |
| 00:23:45 |
I mean, not as good as you. |
| 00:23:46 |
Big shot now. |
| 00:23:48 |
Yeah. |
| 00:23:49 |
Read about you in papers. |
| 00:23:52 |
You don't call anybody back, but... |
| 00:23:54 |
Excuse me? |
| 00:23:55 |
You don't call anybody back. |
| 00:23:57 |
I called you like ten times |
| 00:24:02 |
You made me look like a dick |
| 00:24:07 |
I have a number of items |
| 00:24:09 |
I'll give you the address |
| 00:24:11 |
Okay? Come with me, please. |
| 00:25:19 |
I'm sorry, Jack. |
| 00:25:22 |
I know I messed up, |
| 00:25:30 |
I have nothing to say to you. |
| 00:25:32 |
Don't do this, Jack. |
| 00:25:35 |
Don't be like this. |
| 00:25:36 |
Don't throw it all away. |
| 00:25:40 |
Stay in the fight with me. |
| 00:25:45 |
Excuse me? |
| 00:25:48 |
Before I go, I Just wondered |
| 00:25:49 |
if I left a headshot and resume? |
| 00:25:51 |
Yeah. That's fine. |
| 00:25:53 |
Cool. It's the color kind. |
| 00:25:55 |
- Great. Terrific. |
| 00:26:06 |
I Just wish I could |
| 00:26:07 |
how small and how sad it all was, |
| 00:26:10 |
so you'd know how little |
| 00:26:13 |
Your stuff will be in the garage |
| 00:26:15 |
You can do whatever |
| 00:26:39 |
I'm no good at being in love. |
| 00:26:41 |
I was in love once |
| 00:26:43 |
I was a fat kid. |
| 00:26:45 |
A fat child. A fat teen. |
| 00:26:48 |
No one in my adult life |
| 00:26:54 |
There was a girl at school. |
| 00:27:20 |
Anthony, are you |
| 00:27:23 |
What is it? |
| 00:27:26 |
I don't play that. |
| 00:27:28 |
Well, sit down, dummy. |
| 00:27:29 |
We'll teach you. |
| 00:27:31 |
Tell your brother to sit down. |
| 00:27:33 |
Yeah. |
| 00:27:35 |
Sit down, Anthony. |
| 00:27:38 |
Good idea. |
| 00:28:00 |
End of entry. |
| 00:28:09 |
Jack, you need to read this. |
| 00:28:11 |
"Jack Giamoro immediately hired |
| 00:28:13 |
to come and purge his Westside mansion |
| 00:28:16 |
This is great, Lucky! |
| 00:28:18 |
How did they get this? |
| 00:28:20 |
The goddamn press! |
| 00:28:22 |
Sheesus. |
| 00:28:26 |
What is "Ling"? |
| 00:28:27 |
Chinese? Korean? Taiwan? |
| 00:28:29 |
I don't know, but the name |
| 00:28:30 |
- I'll find out exactly who she is. |
| 00:28:32 |
Ling, my ass. |
| 00:30:18 |
It's debilitating to know that after years |
| 00:30:22 |
you actually don't have |
| 00:30:25 |
I wanted to rip Phil's throat out last night, |
| 00:30:29 |
Hey, can you help me out? |
| 00:30:36 |
My brother Anthony |
| 00:30:38 |
Anthony went after |
| 00:30:40 |
Anthony was like my father. |
| 00:30:42 |
He was driven and had purpose. |
| 00:30:48 |
When you want something in life, |
| 00:30:55 |
Stay with it. |
| 00:30:58 |
You have to be willing |
| 00:31:03 |
I wasn't willing to fight |
| 00:31:06 |
And I couldn't go |
| 00:31:31 |
What I think you are starting to see, |
| 00:31:34 |
if you're doing the work, |
| 00:31:35 |
if you're staying with the course, |
| 00:31:36 |
is that being honest every day, |
| 00:31:39 |
knowing what you think, |
| 00:31:42 |
is getting very revealing. |
| 00:31:45 |
Doors are being opened. |
| 00:31:48 |
Boxes that have not been rummaged in |
| 00:31:51 |
are being looked through. |
| 00:31:53 |
Later, as we wind the course down |
| 00:31:58 |
I should know you intimately, |
| 00:31:59 |
perhaps better than |
| 00:32:02 |
except, of course, yourself. |
| 00:32:03 |
- Excuse me. |
| 00:32:05 |
What do you mean, |
| 00:32:07 |
I don't think that's |
| 00:32:09 |
I'm a very private person. |
| 00:32:11 |
Okay. But you may as well leave now, |
| 00:32:13 |
because there is really |
| 00:32:17 |
Well, it's not that. |
| 00:32:19 |
I'm not interested |
| 00:32:23 |
I'm not an anesthetist, |
| 00:32:26 |
I do not get cheap thrills |
| 00:32:29 |
I am here to give you the tools |
| 00:32:39 |
...discover, |
| 00:32:43 |
and discard... |
| 00:32:47 |
the crap that is |
| 00:32:50 |
And you, sir, |
| 00:32:51 |
definitely have crap |
| 00:32:56 |
"If a way to the better there be, |
| 00:33:00 |
Thomas Hardy. |
| 00:33:02 |
Who? |
| 00:33:03 |
Who is Thomas Hardy? |
| 00:33:05 |
Yes, I am. |
| 00:33:06 |
Are you not a college man, |
| 00:33:09 |
Community college. |
| 00:33:11 |
But I believe education |
| 00:33:14 |
Quite right. |
| 00:33:15 |
Absolutely true. |
| 00:33:17 |
But ego... |
| 00:33:26 |
...will not get you |
| 00:33:27 |
It will feed you, yes. |
| 00:33:30 |
It will clothe you well. |
| 00:33:32 |
But it will leave you cold and alone |
| 00:33:38 |
But if you would prefer to leave, |
| 00:33:41 |
- I don't choose to leave. |
| 00:33:44 |
So, when I ask you |
| 00:33:45 |
for me and me alone |
| 00:33:50 |
And remember the spelling! |
| 00:33:51 |
It's a thing with me. |
| 00:34:12 |
Hey, don't worry. |
| 00:34:13 |
We're gonna get this guy. |
| 00:34:15 |
We'll mess him up real good. |
| 00:34:17 |
Teach him a lesson. |
| 00:34:19 |
He needs one. |
| 00:34:22 |
All these people deciding |
| 00:34:27 |
You've been wronged, |
| 00:34:39 |
- Hello? |
| 00:34:41 |
Hey, man, look, it's Phil. |
| 00:34:42 |
We need to talk. |
| 00:34:44 |
What do we need to |
| 00:34:45 |
Come on, man. |
| 00:34:48 |
I'm sorry. |
| 00:34:52 |
I want to see you. |
| 00:34:54 |
It's 8:02, Phil. |
| 00:34:56 |
I'm running late. |
| 00:35:03 |
I don't want to talk to him! |
| 00:35:05 |
I won't ever talk to him again! |
| 00:35:06 |
You sit down here. |
| 00:35:08 |
Now I really do not want |
| 00:35:10 |
Of all the girls in the world, |
| 00:35:12 |
you had to steal one |
| 00:35:14 |
You should be ashamed! |
| 00:35:17 |
Anthony! |
| 00:35:23 |
I Just don't want to come home |
| 00:35:25 |
and listen to the same garbage |
| 00:35:28 |
I come home from work, |
| 00:35:30 |
I've been shit on all day, |
| 00:35:33 |
to this crap night after night! |
| 00:35:35 |
I don't understand why! |
| 00:35:36 |
Anthony needs to do |
| 00:35:38 |
Oh, come on! |
| 00:35:39 |
I am taking him over to her house |
| 00:35:42 |
Anthony, |
| 00:35:44 |
Leave the kid alone! |
| 00:35:46 |
Get down those stairs |
| 00:35:49 |
You stay out of this! |
| 00:35:51 |
My mother never forgave my father |
| 00:35:53 |
for letting the failure of his career |
| 00:35:58 |
She never forgave him |
| 00:35:59 |
between himself |
| 00:36:01 |
You only care about Jack! |
| 00:36:02 |
My father never forgave me |
| 00:36:04 |
for not being thin and focused, |
| 00:36:06 |
combative and determined |
| 00:36:09 |
Between you |
| 00:36:16 |
And for the rest of her life, |
| 00:36:18 |
he never forgave my mother |
| 00:36:33 |
Why the hell should I |
| 00:36:38 |
- You've got about a hundred calls. |
| 00:36:40 |
No, but I did figure out |
| 00:36:42 |
She writes freelance hatchet pieces |
| 00:36:44 |
Most of them are |
| 00:36:46 |
She did the Sherry Lansing piece. |
| 00:36:47 |
- Figures. |
| 00:36:49 |
She's a screenwriter |
| 00:36:51 |
You know, one of them |
| 00:36:53 |
She submitted ten scripts |
| 00:36:55 |
We reJected them all. |
| 00:36:56 |
She couldn't make it in this town |
| 00:36:57 |
and decided to tear down |
| 00:36:58 |
It gets worse. |
| 00:36:59 |
Would you stop saying that, please? |
| 00:37:01 |
You sound like a bit player |
| 00:37:02 |
She sold a full profile to the L.A. Voice. |
| 00:37:04 |
The one last week was |
| 00:37:06 |
She's doing a whole thing |
| 00:37:07 |
the evolution of the agency, |
| 00:37:09 |
Please tell me that's not true. |
| 00:37:11 |
- I can't. |
| 00:37:12 |
We need you in your office. |
| 00:37:13 |
Right now. |
| 00:37:15 |
Jack, it's important. |
| 00:37:18 |
Phil called. |
| 00:37:18 |
He wants to sit down with you |
| 00:37:20 |
or he's threatened |
| 00:37:21 |
You need to have lunch with him. |
| 00:37:22 |
I'm not sitting down with Phil. |
| 00:37:23 |
Nina called me, too. |
| 00:37:25 |
She's destroyed. |
| 00:37:26 |
I'm worried about her. |
| 00:37:27 |
Then you see her. |
| 00:37:30 |
Hey, get this Ling |
| 00:37:33 |
Jack, you need to do something. |
| 00:37:34 |
He will leave the agency. |
| 00:37:36 |
Jack, here's how bad |
| 00:37:39 |
Are you ready? |
| 00:37:40 |
I will sign your cousin Andrew's no-talent, |
| 00:37:46 |
Okay? |
| 00:37:50 |
- Call him. |
| 00:37:54 |
Barbi Ling, how are you? |
| 00:37:56 |
I'm fine, Mr. Giamoro. |
| 00:37:57 |
What can I do for you? |
| 00:37:59 |
Well, I think that you |
| 00:38:01 |
and have a meal together. |
| 00:38:02 |
Why? Do I sound hungry? |
| 00:38:05 |
In fact, when you called, |
| 00:38:07 |
Well, if you're like me, |
| 00:38:09 |
eventually you'll have another one. |
| 00:38:12 |
Listen to me, Barbi. |
| 00:38:13 |
I promise you, |
| 00:38:15 |
Profiles need information. |
| 00:38:16 |
I can get you to who |
| 00:38:18 |
so you can get |
| 00:38:20 |
Are we done? |
| 00:38:21 |
Barbi, I'm being nice now. |
| 00:38:24 |
This is the nice Jack |
| 00:38:26 |
I know. |
| 00:38:28 |
Oh, look! |
| 00:38:34 |
Fun meeting you, |
| 00:38:39 |
I'm not good with the word "no." |
| 00:38:41 |
I never have been. |
| 00:38:44 |
I worked at the world-famous |
| 00:38:48 |
Morty, Arlene and I |
| 00:38:51 |
We were young and hungry |
| 00:38:52 |
and had the power |
| 00:38:55 |
Once I found the business, |
| 00:38:59 |
I saw myself |
| 00:39:01 |
that it became |
| 00:39:03 |
that I had but simply |
| 00:39:06 |
Like a bus scheduled into the station |
| 00:39:10 |
I moved forward with confidence |
| 00:39:14 |
And when the time came |
| 00:39:16 |
I made a play. |
| 00:39:19 |
As our bosses before us had done, |
| 00:39:22 |
took most of our clients, |
| 00:39:24 |
But first we copied all their secrets |
| 00:39:27 |
so we'd have something to blackmail them with |
| 00:39:31 |
It was ruthless and bold, |
| 00:39:35 |
a time-honored |
| 00:39:48 |
Change is coming around again now. |
| 00:39:52 |
I can feel it. |
| 00:40:16 |
Dad? |
| 00:40:28 |
Dad? |
| 00:41:35 |
Goddamn it! |
| 00:42:05 |
Hi. |
| 00:42:09 |
Is he gonna be okay? |
| 00:42:12 |
He's banged up. |
| 00:42:14 |
He's got a couple |
| 00:42:16 |
Pretty bad cut |
| 00:42:19 |
He's gonna |
| 00:42:20 |
His teeth are pretty bad. |
| 00:42:24 |
It's not a problem, Jack. |
| 00:42:26 |
I've got the best guy |
| 00:42:28 |
And Jack, the best thing about it is, |
| 00:42:31 |
This guy will have you |
| 00:42:33 |
You're gonna love this guy. |
| 00:42:51 |
Wait a minute! |
| 00:42:52 |
He's not a dentist! |
| 00:42:55 |
This guy's a comedy writer! |
| 00:42:57 |
Okay, we better up that dosage, please. |
| 00:43:13 |
Who let... |
| 00:43:17 |
You're a whore! |
| 00:43:18 |
She broke the bonds |
| 00:43:21 |
You screwed my biggest client! |
| 00:43:23 |
Why couldn't you screw Garry Marshall? |
| 00:43:25 |
You had to screw |
| 00:43:28 |
That's good! |
| 00:43:31 |
I'll be in the waiting room. |
| 00:44:30 |
Morty, he's here! |
| 00:44:32 |
Okay, good. |
| 00:44:34 |
- Yeah, she knows. |
| 00:44:35 |
I'm here. |
| 00:44:36 |
He's on his way. |
| 00:44:38 |
- Okay. |
| 00:44:39 |
Nobody mentions the teeth. |
| 00:44:41 |
Come on. |
| 00:44:42 |
Talk about his quick recovery. |
| 00:44:44 |
- Come on. |
| 00:44:45 |
Okay, quick! Thank you. |
| 00:44:47 |
Everybody upbeat? Okay. |
| 00:45:06 |
So, how you doing, Jack? |
| 00:45:09 |
How you think I'm doing? |
| 00:45:11 |
I look like a goddamn xylophone! |
| 00:45:14 |
Jack, Kevin Sands is |
| 00:45:16 |
He does all the big names. |
| 00:45:17 |
You were in |
| 00:45:19 |
He did the best he could. |
| 00:45:21 |
I look like Tom Cruise's retarded cousin. |
| 00:45:26 |
Jack, what did the cops say? |
| 00:45:27 |
Did they find anything? |
| 00:45:29 |
No. Guy got away. |
| 00:45:32 |
They have no idea who he was. |
| 00:45:34 |
Well, the important thing |
| 00:45:36 |
Yep, I'm back! |
| 00:45:42 |
All right, I'll see you guys. |
| 00:48:00 |
Maria? |
| 00:48:06 |
Have you seen my Journal? |
| 00:48:12 |
Maria! |
| 00:48:24 |
My home was broken into |
| 00:48:26 |
I haven't had an entry |
| 00:48:27 |
So, what's your plan? |
| 00:48:31 |
I don't know. |
| 00:48:32 |
You don't know? |
| 00:48:33 |
You haven't been to |
| 00:48:34 |
and now you |
| 00:48:36 |
after you didn't want me |
| 00:48:39 |
and when I ask you |
| 00:48:41 |
you say... |
| 00:48:42 |
"I don't know." |
| 00:48:47 |
Do you think I'm lying? |
| 00:48:49 |
I've had a very |
| 00:48:50 |
Which, of course, |
| 00:48:52 |
Mr. Giamoro, tell me honestly. |
| 00:48:56 |
Why don't you drop out? |
| 00:48:58 |
I mean, why are you here? |
| 00:49:00 |
To taunt me? |
| 00:49:02 |
It's not my way to drop out. |
| 00:49:03 |
Yes, yes, yes. |
| 00:49:04 |
But why are you here in this class? |
| 00:49:11 |
I don't know. |
| 00:49:14 |
I Just had an idea. |
| 00:49:17 |
Why don't you write about that? |
| 00:49:19 |
Or would that be too much bother? |
| 00:49:24 |
You don't have the right |
| 00:49:26 |
Great! Write about that! |
| 00:49:28 |
Write about how |
| 00:49:30 |
how you'd like to pop me |
| 00:49:32 |
how you'd like to |
| 00:49:34 |
Write about it in |
| 00:49:36 |
Am I hitting a little |
| 00:49:39 |
Fill those pages! |
| 00:49:41 |
Get a new Journal and fill the pages! |
| 00:49:45 |
Write about it. |
| 00:49:52 |
Yes? |
| 00:49:54 |
Okay. |
| 00:49:57 |
Thank you. |
| 00:50:03 |
I miss that time in my life, |
| 00:50:07 |
when the ground |
| 00:50:09 |
when I was bullheaded like my dad, |
| 00:50:14 |
Mr. Giamoro, |
| 00:50:16 |
that you cannot |
| 00:50:18 |
I will see that you do a night in Jail |
| 00:50:23 |
Your Honor, give me a night. |
| 00:50:25 |
But Just hear me out, |
| 00:50:27 |
We built this company, okay? |
| 00:50:29 |
We put our souls into it. |
| 00:50:31 |
We made it what it is! |
| 00:50:33 |
And now that it's worth something, |
| 00:50:35 |
our former employers |
| 00:50:37 |
Okay, I'm sorry. |
| 00:50:39 |
You Just bought yourself |
| 00:50:41 |
Wait a minute! |
| 00:50:42 |
Ten years is too late |
| 00:50:45 |
and throw the lives of |
| 00:50:48 |
It's not right, goddamn it! |
| 00:50:50 |
Get off me! |
| 00:50:53 |
I can walk out on my own! |
| 00:50:57 |
I was always ready to explode |
| 00:51:02 |
if I thought you were in the way of me, |
| 00:51:14 |
You're a fool. |
| 00:51:15 |
Yes, I know that. |
| 00:51:17 |
But damn, were you cute. |
| 00:51:18 |
Wow. I mean... |
| 00:51:20 |
That all changed for me, though. |
| 00:51:23 |
It changed a little bit |
| 00:51:26 |
Jack, the Jury went our way. |
| 00:51:30 |
What? |
| 00:51:31 |
We won, Jack. |
| 00:51:33 |
- We won? |
| 00:51:38 |
Oh, my God! |
| 00:51:48 |
The winning streak continued. |
| 00:51:50 |
The agency grew. |
| 00:52:00 |
Things got sweet. |
| 00:52:02 |
The little moments took light |
| 00:52:08 |
Promises were made |
| 00:52:12 |
The air in my world |
| 00:52:17 |
a peace that time would show |
| 00:52:27 |
The deal of a lifetime, |
| 00:52:30 |
and I couldn't close it. |
| 00:52:34 |
Jack, Barbi Ling's calling. |
| 00:52:39 |
Yeah, I want her. |
| 00:52:40 |
What can I do for you, Barbi? |
| 00:52:42 |
I need some filler |
| 00:52:44 |
I have reams of stuff now, |
| 00:52:46 |
but I need to get the Juice |
| 00:52:49 |
What kind of Juice? |
| 00:52:50 |
About the early days |
| 00:52:52 |
The break-in, maybe. |
| 00:52:54 |
The files you and Arlene |
| 00:52:56 |
and were gonna bribe |
| 00:52:58 |
You have my Journal? |
| 00:53:00 |
Is that it, Barbi? |
| 00:53:02 |
I have no idea what |
| 00:53:04 |
But are you still hungry |
| 00:53:07 |
I'm famished. |
| 00:53:08 |
Rickshaw Inn, |
| 00:53:11 |
Do you know it? |
| 00:53:12 |
Chinatown. Yeah. |
| 00:53:13 |
My family used to eat there |
| 00:53:15 |
I'll see you there |
| 00:53:26 |
Get out! Get out! |
| 00:53:28 |
I don't care how busy he is! |
| 00:53:29 |
Get me an appointment |
| 00:54:40 |
What the fuck? |
| 00:54:55 |
Where is my Journal? |
| 00:54:57 |
Fuck you! |
| 00:55:06 |
What's the deal with your teeth? |
| 00:55:27 |
You hold people back. |
| 00:55:30 |
Bunch of rich white men. |
| 00:55:31 |
Rich white gatekeepers. |
| 00:55:32 |
What? |
| 00:55:37 |
Is that the line she gave you |
| 00:55:39 |
to get you to break into my house, |
| 00:55:43 |
Let me tell you something, Jimmy. |
| 00:55:46 |
You've got nothing out there |
| 00:55:50 |
There's nothing. |
| 00:55:52 |
No security. No gate. |
| 00:55:54 |
No hidden camera. |
| 00:55:56 |
Anybody can Just walk in off the street |
| 00:55:58 |
and put a cap in |
| 00:56:00 |
Now where's my Journal? |
| 00:56:02 |
And don't say, "Fuck you," |
| 00:56:03 |
'cause if you do, |
| 00:56:05 |
and I will take your piece of shit TV |
| 00:56:08 |
and the cops will Just figure |
| 00:56:10 |
Where is my Journal? |
| 00:56:12 |
All you had to do |
| 00:56:16 |
read her scripts. |
| 00:56:17 |
But no, you couldn't do that. |
| 00:56:18 |
You're too big time, huh? |
| 00:56:20 |
You're never gonna |
| 00:56:41 |
Hi. I need to see |
| 00:56:43 |
He's with a patient, sir. |
| 00:56:46 |
Okay, that doesn't |
| 00:56:47 |
- Maybe you should have a seat or... |
| 00:56:51 |
Dr. Sands! |
| 00:56:56 |
Excuse me, sir. |
| 00:56:57 |
We're going to reschedule |
| 00:56:59 |
Would you mind stepping out |
| 00:57:02 |
The receptionist will |
| 00:57:04 |
Sir, we're done with you. |
| 00:57:07 |
Do these look |
| 00:57:08 |
I can fix them. |
| 00:57:10 |
I couldn't get the mold right. |
| 00:57:11 |
Goddamn right |
| 00:57:13 |
Cancel his appointments |
| 00:57:17 |
Get fixing, Skippy. |
| 00:57:24 |
No one knows what |
| 00:57:26 |
Try to act professional. |
| 00:57:27 |
I'll try. |
| 00:57:28 |
Hey, Arlene! |
| 00:57:30 |
You ever eat at the Rickshaw Inn |
| 00:57:32 |
Yeah, years ago. Why? |
| 00:57:34 |
I'm having dinner there |
| 00:57:36 |
After that, I've got |
| 00:57:38 |
And after that, |
| 00:57:40 |
everything's gonna be back |
| 00:57:42 |
Who are you having dinner with |
| 00:57:43 |
Hey, do you like these? |
| 00:57:44 |
They're temps. |
| 00:58:00 |
Maybe he's having dinner here with Phil. |
| 00:58:02 |
Maybe they patched it up. |
| 00:58:04 |
Maybe he's here |
| 00:58:05 |
You got a better shot at that. |
| 00:58:07 |
I'd take ten percent |
| 00:58:09 |
Who owns the tooth fairy? |
| 00:58:10 |
Yeah. Is it public domain? |
| 00:58:11 |
That's not a bad idea. |
| 00:58:18 |
He's here. He's here. |
| 00:58:25 |
Mr. Giamoro. |
| 00:58:29 |
The Asian girl from Primkin's class. |
| 00:58:31 |
Yep. The Asian girl. |
| 00:58:33 |
So, what came first, |
| 00:58:36 |
The story. |
| 00:58:37 |
Who's that girl? |
| 00:58:39 |
I have no idea. |
| 00:58:42 |
Who tipped you off? |
| 00:58:45 |
Dooley's nephew? |
| 00:58:47 |
Here's a question. |
| 00:58:49 |
Why are you in a class like that, |
| 00:58:53 |
Well, to be honest with you, Barbi, |
| 00:58:55 |
I think I took that class |
| 00:58:59 |
One, I wanted to |
| 00:59:01 |
And two... |
| 00:59:05 |
was to meet people like you. |
| 00:59:08 |
Here's a question. |
| 00:59:09 |
Why'd you pick this shit hole? |
| 00:59:10 |
It's the worst restaurant |
| 00:59:13 |
My family owns it. |
| 00:59:15 |
That's my father at the register. |
| 00:59:17 |
And all the busboys and waiters |
| 00:59:20 |
my cousins and my uncles. |
| 00:59:22 |
Well, okay. |
| 00:59:26 |
I want my Journal back, Barbi, |
| 00:59:29 |
and tell him you're not |
| 00:59:31 |
Here's a little tip. |
| 00:59:33 |
Tearing down other people |
| 00:59:37 |
is not a way to |
| 00:59:41 |
My Journal, please. |
| 00:59:52 |
No, no! That's... |
| 00:59:54 |
No! You... no, no! |
| 00:59:57 |
No! |
| 00:59:58 |
Give me my Journal! |
| 01:00:03 |
Jack! Jack! |
| 01:00:05 |
Who is that girl, Jack? |
| 01:00:07 |
- Whoa! Jeez! |
| 01:00:10 |
Jeez, I'm sorry. |
| 01:00:20 |
Why are these people |
| 01:00:22 |
I'll tell you later. |
| 01:00:25 |
Jeez! |
| 01:00:28 |
Aw, Jack! |
| 01:00:39 |
Give me the Journal, Jack. |
| 01:00:41 |
- That's what she wants? |
| 01:00:44 |
Give it to her! |
| 01:00:44 |
- Give it to her! |
| 01:01:18 |
Fuck it, abort. |
| 01:01:30 |
Yeah? |
| 01:01:33 |
Okay, I'll take him, but quick! |
| 01:01:35 |
Hey. |
| 01:01:41 |
I had my Journal |
| 01:01:43 |
and I lost it. |
| 01:01:44 |
Morty fell, |
| 01:01:46 |
confusion ruled, and one of her uncles |
| 01:01:50 |
Barbi Ling |
| 01:01:58 |
I headed home knowing |
| 01:02:02 |
so I drove to David Lilly's |
| 01:02:04 |
It was time to Jumpstart the beast, |
| 01:02:30 |
Hello there, neighbor! |
| 01:02:31 |
Just me, Jack Giamoro, |
| 01:02:33 |
your friendly |
| 01:02:36 |
What is this? |
| 01:02:37 |
David, I'm gonna |
| 01:02:40 |
At the end of this speech, |
| 01:02:41 |
one of two things is |
| 01:02:43 |
Either I'm gonna represent you |
| 01:02:46 |
So, hear me out. |
| 01:02:49 |
David Lilly, |
| 01:02:53 |
I can make the deals |
| 01:02:55 |
that you need to have made. |
| 01:02:56 |
I will have the studio people |
| 01:02:59 |
I will have them |
| 01:03:01 |
I will have them |
| 01:03:04 |
I want to make you |
| 01:03:05 |
that it will screw up your kids |
| 01:03:08 |
I am bone-marrow hungry |
| 01:03:15 |
That's it. |
| 01:03:17 |
What do you think? |
| 01:03:18 |
Ask him if he'll |
| 01:03:21 |
I want this guy |
| 01:03:25 |
Okay, fine. |
| 01:03:27 |
You're my agent. |
| 01:03:28 |
Just get off my lawn |
| 01:03:32 |
Yes! |
| 01:03:33 |
You're not gonna regret this. |
| 01:03:36 |
I'm very excited. |
| 01:03:48 |
Jack, we need an explanation. |
| 01:03:54 |
Listen, I can't let her |
| 01:03:56 |
This is the woman who's responsible |
| 01:03:58 |
She can't have that Journal. |
| 01:03:59 |
Why not? Why can't you let her |
| 01:04:01 |
What's in the Journal? |
| 01:04:03 |
She's doing a story on me, |
| 01:04:07 |
Oh, God. |
| 01:04:09 |
And the Journal contains, you know, |
| 01:04:14 |
But, other than that, |
| 01:04:17 |
And there's good news |
| 01:04:18 |
What's in the Journal, Jack? |
| 01:04:20 |
I'm taking care of it, okay? |
| 01:04:21 |
Jack, what's in the Journal? |
| 01:04:30 |
Information that directly |
| 01:04:32 |
at the competition trial... |
| 01:04:36 |
as well as some personal stuff. |
| 01:04:37 |
You know, my feelings |
| 01:04:39 |
and stuff like that. |
| 01:04:41 |
So, Barbi, as we |
| 01:04:45 |
we all wanted to |
| 01:04:47 |
to talk about the scripts |
| 01:04:49 |
Five years ago. |
| 01:04:50 |
Please don't |
| 01:04:52 |
We are looking at ways |
| 01:04:53 |
of speeding up |
| 01:04:55 |
As head of the future lit department, |
| 01:04:57 |
I really think you have |
| 01:04:58 |
- Really? |
| 01:05:00 |
- Awesome. |
| 01:05:04 |
Which one do you like the best? |
| 01:05:08 |
Well, to be honest with you, |
| 01:05:09 |
probably |
| 01:05:11 |
would be my favorite. |
| 01:05:12 |
Good one. Really edgy. |
| 01:05:13 |
Planet Without Jews |
| 01:05:15 |
Phenomenal. |
| 01:05:17 |
- Wow, thank you. |
| 01:05:19 |
Barbi, the point is, |
| 01:05:22 |
love to have you as a client. |
| 01:05:25 |
A client? |
| 01:05:26 |
Yes. Yes. |
| 01:05:29 |
- Absolutely. |
| 01:05:33 |
Which one of my scripts |
| 01:05:36 |
You read them all, right? |
| 01:05:42 |
Every one of them. |
| 01:05:44 |
How nice. |
| 01:05:48 |
How does an agency work? |
| 01:05:52 |
I'm Just curious. |
| 01:05:53 |
Ten percent. |
| 01:05:55 |
it's really whatever |
| 01:05:57 |
I read them on the shitter. |
| 01:06:01 |
Excuse me? |
| 01:06:03 |
Well, I was on the shitter, |
| 01:06:05 |
taking a shit when |
| 01:06:08 |
so I Just thought |
| 01:06:12 |
Jack! |
| 01:06:13 |
He is so silly. |
| 01:06:15 |
- He's kidding. |
| 01:06:18 |
Let's cut the shit, Barbi. Okay? |
| 01:06:20 |
We want the Journal |
| 01:06:23 |
What do you want? |
| 01:06:25 |
You mean you don't want |
| 01:06:29 |
No, of course we do. |
| 01:06:31 |
Oh, for God's sake. |
| 01:06:32 |
She knows we don't want |
| 01:06:34 |
Barbi, have you ever |
| 01:06:36 |
Have you ever |
| 01:06:40 |
You have no interest |
| 01:06:42 |
Well, it is tiresome. |
| 01:07:06 |
You're all so pathetic. |
| 01:07:08 |
Especially you, Jack. |
| 01:07:11 |
I have you people by the short hairs |
| 01:07:14 |
and you have no shot in hell |
| 01:07:23 |
Get your asses back |
| 01:07:29 |
Well, that went well. |
| 01:08:02 |
Come on, Dad. |
| 01:08:05 |
Dad, what are you |
| 01:08:08 |
I looked these fish |
| 01:08:13 |
and they looked back at me, |
| 01:08:16 |
and they... |
| 01:08:21 |
They know who I am, |
| 01:08:25 |
Okay. Come on, Pop. |
| 01:08:28 |
I treated your mother like garbage. |
| 01:08:32 |
Yeah. |
| 01:08:34 |
I should have been Just... |
| 01:08:39 |
...nice. |
| 01:08:41 |
But then, I was very hard |
| 01:08:51 |
Okay, Dad. |
| 01:08:57 |
Okay. Come on, let's go to bed. |
| 01:09:08 |
I don't look back on the |
| 01:09:11 |
as Nina and I. |
| 01:09:13 |
I know we had them. |
| 01:09:16 |
But I remember them now |
| 01:09:19 |
characters in a book or a film |
| 01:09:33 |
Isn't this great? |
| 01:09:35 |
Yeah, but Just wait! |
| 01:09:36 |
A couple years up the road, |
| 01:09:37 |
I'm gonna start screwing |
| 01:09:38 |
Then you'll know great! |
| 01:09:45 |
I don't have a clear memory |
| 01:09:51 |
Babe, I told you, I don't |
| 01:09:54 |
I've been there. |
| 01:09:56 |
They charge you an arm and a leg. |
| 01:09:58 |
You know, |
| 01:10:00 |
You tell them every little deep, |
| 01:10:02 |
and then you spend your whole life |
| 01:10:05 |
you never run into 'em in public. |
| 01:10:07 |
No. |
| 01:10:14 |
If you screw my client |
| 01:10:16 |
I will ruin you. |
| 01:10:17 |
I will smear this town |
| 01:10:22 |
You are nothing. |
| 01:10:23 |
Do not cross me on this. Okay? |
| 01:10:25 |
I'm hanging up now. |
| 01:10:27 |
Because your response to my side |
| 01:10:41 |
Who was that? |
| 01:10:43 |
Just a friend. |
| 01:10:45 |
I gotta go. I'm late. |
| 01:11:27 |
Dooley. Pack your shit. |
| 01:11:29 |
You're fired. |
| 01:11:31 |
Excuse me? |
| 01:11:33 |
You want his Job? |
| 01:11:34 |
Yeah, sure. |
| 01:11:37 |
All right, Dooley! |
| 01:11:38 |
You're sitting at |
| 01:11:40 |
Get up, get up, get up |
| 01:11:56 |
All right, Jack. |
| 01:11:58 |
Before you go in there, |
| 01:12:00 |
there's someone in your office. |
| 01:12:01 |
I set this up, |
| 01:12:02 |
be upset with me, |
| 01:12:04 |
but the two of you |
| 01:12:06 |
You're a piece of work, |
| 01:12:07 |
- Jack. |
| 01:12:09 |
Is that the only thing that matters |
| 01:12:13 |
I mean, can't you see |
| 01:12:14 |
Just trust me, Jack. |
| 01:12:16 |
The two of you need to talk. |
| 01:12:18 |
Fine. I'll talk to him. |
| 01:12:20 |
Good. |
| 01:12:42 |
Morty told me about |
| 01:12:46 |
and about the Journal. |
| 01:12:48 |
I've seen you writing in it. |
| 01:12:56 |
If you really loved me, |
| 01:13:01 |
no matter what |
| 01:13:02 |
you would not have |
| 01:13:07 |
Okay, you're right. |
| 01:13:09 |
I'm human. I'm flawed. |
| 01:13:13 |
I'm a flawed piece of shit, Jack. |
| 01:13:15 |
Is that what you want to hear? |
| 01:13:17 |
Do you want to hear me beg? |
| 01:13:20 |
'Cause I will. I'll beg. |
| 01:13:22 |
It's not in my nature, but I'll do it. |
| 01:13:39 |
I'm asking for forgiveness. |
| 01:13:44 |
I'm asking you to somehow... |
| 01:13:47 |
Iook inside yourself and... |
| 01:13:50 |
find the place that |
| 01:13:52 |
on all the incredible good |
| 01:13:57 |
If you really love me, |
| 01:14:00 |
then why is that |
| 01:14:11 |
Get out. |
| 01:14:28 |
You okay? |
| 01:14:30 |
Yeah, I'm fine. |
| 01:14:31 |
All right, well, |
| 01:14:32 |
David Lilly and his wife |
| 01:14:43 |
I'm going up. |
| 01:14:44 |
No. Let's be smarter than this. |
| 01:14:46 |
I want to get more on him. |
| 01:14:48 |
He's in pain, this one. |
| 01:14:52 |
The more I read this thing, |
| 01:14:55 |
He's gonna do |
| 01:14:56 |
and I want to be there |
| 01:15:03 |
I'm gonna have him in pain for you. |
| 01:15:06 |
Baby... |
| 01:15:07 |
Sorry. Please. |
| 01:15:10 |
Hold on. |
| 01:15:12 |
Please hide. |
| 01:15:14 |
This sucks. |
| 01:15:18 |
Nina! Nina Giamoro! |

Do you think we could go somewhere |

Does my husband know |
| 01:15:36 |
Yeah, he does. |
| 01:15:40 |
Okay, sure. |

Why don't we go upstairs |
| 01:15:45 |

I'm glad you came, man. |

You remember my wife Brynn? |
| 01:16:36 |
Of course, of course. |
| 01:16:37 |
For the gate repair. |
| 01:16:45 |
That's very funny. |
| 01:16:47 |
- Just kidding! |
| 01:16:49 |
No, I insist. |

Did you see his face? |
| 01:16:52 |
Let's head back |
| 01:16:53 |
We'll sit down, |

Okay? Come on. |

Oh, Nina! |

Yeah, yeah. |

Brynn, or Lady Lilly, |
| 01:17:39 |
is going to perform |
| 01:17:41 |
Oh, that's not necessary. |

We've already decided on that. |
| 01:17:45 |
We have some career goals mapped out |
| 01:17:47 |
Morty's gonna come in. |
| 01:17:48 |
I don't want any favors, |
| 01:17:51 |
I really want you to handle me. |
| 01:17:53 |
That's why I'm gonna do a scene, |
| 01:17:56 |

| 01:17:57 |
If... if it'll make you... |
| 01:17:59 |
if that's what you want, it's fine. |
| 01:18:01 |
Great. It'll be fun. |

Hello. |

Morty, Brynn is gonna do a scene, |

A scene. Here? |

David and I, with Jack's help, |
| 01:18:17 |

Okay. |

Great. |

Seriously, you're so sweet. |
| 01:18:39 |
You're like a little angel face. |
| 01:18:40 |
And you're the best secretary. |
| 01:18:43 |
Hi, Arlene. |
| 01:18:45 |
Nina. |
| 01:18:46 |
This is Barbi Ling. |
| 01:18:47 |
She's writing a story |
| 01:18:49 |
We Just wanted to use |
| 01:18:51 |

| 01:18:52 |
Yeah. |
| 01:18:53 |
Actually, would you like |
| 01:18:54 |
I mean, no one knows |
| 01:18:56 |
and the agency than Arlene. |
| 01:18:57 |
Except for Jack. |
| 01:18:59 |
I don't think so. |
| 01:19:00 |
Okay. Arlene, |
| 01:19:02 |
No, not at all. |
| 01:19:12 |
So, Miss Tramell |
| 01:19:16 |
Did I miss something? |
| 01:19:19 |
I told them you wouldn't want |
| 01:19:23 |
Why'd you waive your |
| 01:19:25 |
Why did you think |
| 01:19:29 |
Sorry. |
| 01:19:31 |
I have nothing to hide. |
| 01:19:38 |
There's no smoking |
| 01:19:40 |
What are you gonna do? |
| 01:19:42 |
Charge me with smoking? |
| 01:19:44 |
- I need you. |
| 01:19:47 |
Would you tell us the nature |
| 01:19:49 |
Trust me on this. |
| 01:19:51 |
I had sex with him for |
| 01:19:52 |
Arlene, this is important. Leave. |
| 01:19:53 |
- I liked having sex with him. |
| 01:19:55 |
He wasn't afraid |
| 01:19:57 |
I like men like that. |
| 01:20:00 |
I like men |
| 01:20:04 |
And he gave me a lot |
| 01:20:10 |
So Nina, let's start |
| 01:20:12 |
Okay |
| 01:20:16 |
What's the name |
| 01:20:20 |
that you've been sleeping with? |
| 01:20:41 |
Hi. Phil Balow to see |
| 01:20:44 |
Sure, Mr. Balow. |
| 01:21:05 |
You describe a white silk |
| 01:21:08 |
I've always had a fondness |
| 01:21:10 |
But you said you liked men |
| 01:21:12 |
No. I said I like |
| 01:21:17 |
I don't give any rules, Jack. |
| 01:21:26 |
- I go with the flow. |
| 01:21:30 |
Ever do drugs with Mr. Boz, Miss Tramell? |
| 01:21:33 |
Sorry. Yes? |
| 01:21:34 |
- Sure. |
| 01:21:37 |
- I'm trapped. |
| 01:21:38 |
I am. |
| 01:21:39 |
- What kind of drugs? |
| 01:21:41 |
- Cocaine. |
| 01:21:43 |
We're all stuck, |
| 01:21:43 |
and let me Just say being |
| 01:21:45 |
for what happened |
| 01:21:46 |
Have you ever had |
| 01:21:48 |
- No, Jack, I'm trapped. |
| 01:21:51 |
- I'm trapped in a closet. |
| 01:21:52 |
Honey, I'm trapped in a closet, too, |
| 01:21:54 |
Okay? |
| 01:21:56 |
How did you feel |
| 01:21:57 |
Johnny Boz had died |
| 01:21:59 |
Who the hell is Johnny Boz? |
| 01:22:01 |
I felt like somebody had read my book |
| 01:22:03 |
Look, I'm in the |
| 01:22:05 |
down the hall, Jack, |
| 01:22:07 |
and Barbi Ling |
| 01:22:08 |
But it didn't hurt... |
| 01:22:09 |
...even though |
| 01:22:12 |
You still get pleasure. |
| 01:22:14 |
Haven't you ever had sex |
| 01:22:16 |
while you were married, Jack? |
| 01:22:26 |
Okay, that's plenty. |
| 01:22:28 |
My God, what a talent. |
| 01:22:29 |
My God, what a talent. |
| 01:22:30 |
I'll be right there. |
| 01:22:31 |
Morty? |
| 01:22:32 |
Yeah, yeah. She's amazing. |
| 01:22:33 |
You know who she reminds me of? |
| 01:22:34 |
Me too. Good. |
| 01:22:38 |
- Phil! |
| 01:22:40 |
Yeah, Jack, it's Phil. |
| 01:22:42 |
The evil Phil, who you refuse |
| 01:22:45 |
- We gotta talk. |
| 01:22:47 |
David, I'll be right back. |
| 01:22:49 |
You were terrific. |
| 01:22:50 |
I'll be right back, Phil. |
| 01:22:54 |
- Are you okay? |
| 01:22:55 |
Get me out of here, though. |
| 01:22:56 |
No. No, not "okay." |
| 01:22:58 |
All right? |
| 01:23:01 |
Oh. Shit! |
| 01:23:02 |
I got your Journal back, Jack. |
| 01:23:04 |
- Thank you. |
| 01:23:06 |
Look man, I'm so in the wrong here. |
| 01:23:09 |
I mean, I am so in the wrong. |
| 01:23:11 |
I'm not gonna read it, Jack, |
| 01:23:14 |
- I'm not worried. |
| 01:23:16 |
You know, I mean, |
| 01:23:19 |
But you hate me. |
| 01:23:21 |
I mean, you Just hate me |
| 01:23:24 |
Why did you take this class, |
| 01:23:27 |
You've always been so resistant |
| 01:23:31 |
and then out of the blue |
| 01:23:33 |
Why? |
| 01:23:34 |
- Answer me. |
| 01:23:36 |
I don't know. |
| 01:23:37 |
I Just got to this place in my life |
| 01:23:38 |
where I felt like |
| 01:23:42 |
I felt like, I don't know who I am... |
| 01:23:47 |
and I don't know how |
| 01:23:51 |
And that scared me. |
| 01:23:55 |
Going crazy on me, Jack? |
| 01:23:58 |
No, Phil. I'm not going |
| 01:24:01 |
It's Just that, uh... |
| 01:24:06 |
I'm imperfect, you know? |
| 01:24:08 |
I am. We all are. |
| 01:24:11 |
I mean, we're all |
| 01:24:16 |
I know, baby. |
| 01:24:17 |
I know, baby. |
| 01:24:20 |
Imperfect, I'll cop to. |
| 01:24:22 |
Give me a hug. |
| 01:24:25 |
Not you, Phil. |
| 01:24:27 |
Oh, no, I am. |
| 01:24:28 |
After all that preparation, |
| 01:24:30 |
- You know, I spent hours. |
| 01:24:32 |
I made this outfit. |
| 01:24:33 |
- He's coming back. |
| 01:24:35 |
All right, get off. |
| 01:24:36 |
Come on. That's enough. |
| 01:24:46 |
It's locked. |
| 01:24:47 |
Yes. I see that. |
| 01:25:03 |
Jack, the police are on their way. |
| 01:25:04 |
You better get out here now. |
| 01:25:05 |
You won't believe |
| 01:25:06 |
Hello. |
| 01:25:09 |
You coming? |
| 01:25:10 |
Jack, you gotta get out here now. |
| 01:25:11 |
All right, all right, |
| 01:25:21 |
I'll be right back. |
| 01:25:22 |
You bigshot piece of shit! |
| 01:25:26 |
This make a good script for you? |
| 01:25:29 |
I know the ending! |
| 01:25:30 |
Barbi, go in there |
| 01:25:32 |
'cause the cops |
| 01:25:34 |
and when they do, |
| 01:25:36 |
burglary, assault, |
| 01:25:38 |
I mean, you'll go to Jail for ten years, |
| 01:25:42 |
So tell me, is this over? |
| 01:25:45 |
Correct answer is yes. |
| 01:25:48 |
Yes, it's over. |
| 01:25:50 |
Okay. |
| 01:25:52 |
Go tell this idiot, |
| 01:25:56 |
I could've been sitting here! |
| 01:25:57 |
No, Jimmy, no! |
| 01:25:58 |
- No! |
| 01:25:59 |
- We have to burn down his office! |
| 01:26:02 |
One problem, dickhead. |
| 01:26:03 |
It's not his office, |
| 01:26:57 |
You stalking me? |
| 01:27:01 |
I am. |
| 01:27:05 |
I wanna come home, Jack. |
| 01:27:07 |
I wanna come home so bad. |
| 01:27:13 |
I Just... |
| 01:27:16 |
I Just wanna come home. |
| 01:27:19 |
I want us to get it right |
| 01:27:30 |
Come here. |
| 01:28:18 |
I have made a decision. |
| 01:28:19 |
I no longer choose to |
| 01:28:22 |
I have left my company. |
| 01:28:24 |
My former partners all have voted. |
| 01:28:26 |
Arlene will replace me |
| 01:28:29 |
Needless to say, |
| 01:28:34 |
For the first time in fifteen years, |
| 01:28:37 |
I will be Just Jack, |
| 01:28:40 |
Something I have grown and built |
| 01:28:43 |
with every beat of life that I had |
| 01:28:48 |
I am nothing without the elixir |
| 01:28:52 |
I do not know how to Just be still. |
| 01:29:16 |
So I shall read these, |
| 01:29:17 |
and within two weeks, |
| 01:29:19 |
you'll be receiving |
| 01:29:22 |
Thank you. Thank you. |
| 01:29:24 |
I have no problem |
| 01:29:26 |
you and you alone, |
| 01:29:28 |
if that's what it takes |
| 01:29:29 |
Wonderful. |
| 01:29:30 |
I do not need |
| 01:29:32 |
Give me any grade you want. |
| 01:29:35 |
I gotta tell you something. |
| 01:29:37 |
You're a real shitbag, Primkin. |
| 01:29:45 |
All in all, though, |
| 01:29:46 |
I think you taught |
| 01:29:47 |
Thank you. |
| 01:29:50 |
So, you're done. |
| 01:29:52 |
That's it. I'm done. |
| 01:29:54 |
Good. You've done well, son. |
| 01:29:56 |
You done good. |
| 01:29:58 |
Except... |
| 01:30:01 |
you spelled "Primkin" wrong. |
| 01:30:06 |
God. |
| 01:30:11 |
