- Why not?

never take an angry client's call

discomfort, Alan.

This is more like
open-heart surgery.

Well, maybe you
should take this as a sign, Ari.

He's a kid.

He's brilliant.

You know what my only
regret is, Ari?

That I didn't put Jake
in "A1."

have been even bigger.

Well, let me be your guide, Vince.
Over the years,

130
00:07:17,395 --> 00:07:19,355
I've developed a foolproof system
for judging the merits

131
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,274
- of a prospective agency.
- I guess you've had a lot of practice,

132
00:07:22,359 --> 00:07:24,026
considering how many times
you've been dropped.

133
00:07:24,111 --> 00:07:25,945
Never officially dropped, Turtle.

134
00:07:26,029 --> 00:07:27,530
Although one did move
without telling me.

135
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:30,658
- Now what's your system?
- I judge an agency on four categories...

136
00:07:30,742 --> 00:07:34,078
decor, service,
amenities and ambiance.

137
00:07:34,162 --> 00:07:36,122
Give up to 10 points
for each category.

138
00:07:36,206 --> 00:07:38,707
The agency with the highest
overall score wins.

139
00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:42,336
I originally devised it for my visits to
day spas, but it's perfectly applicable.

140
00:07:42,420 --> 00:07:44,964
Yeah, I'm sure there's a direct
correlation between Vince's career

- and your anti-aging regimen.

I give 'em a six for decor.

143
00:07:50,262 --> 00:07:52,388
I mean, what kind
of self-respecting agency

144
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,390
has fake plants
in their lobby?

145
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:56,684

00:09:02,459 --> 00:09:04,668
Vince has called
three times, Ari.

168
00:09:04,753 --> 00:09:06,837
That's three times more
than he called all of last year.

169
00:09:06,922 --> 00:09:09,590
I know. He keeps calling me,
too, and I got an e-mail.

170
00:09:09,674 --> 00:09:11,592
I didn't even know
he knew how to do that.

171
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:13,552
- I have other information.
- Yeah.

172
00:09:13,637 --> 00:09:15,221
It's also regarding Vince.

173
00:09:15,305 --> 00:09:18,140
Speak or I will intern you
like it's 1942.

174
00:09:18,225 --> 00:09:20,351
- I am not Japanese, Ari.
- Speak!

175
00:09:20,435 --> 00:09:23,354
Vince is taking a meeting
with another agency.

176
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:25,689
- How do you know that?
- The Gay Mafia

177
00:09:25,774 --> 00:09:28,567
has been replaced
by the Gay Assistant Corps, Ari.

178
00:09:28,652 --> 00:09:31,820
We know all.

179
00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:34,990
He'll be at Le Petit Four
at 1:30 meeting with Andy Left.

180
00:09:35,075 --> 00:09:38,202
Jesus, he's gonna humiliate
me in public after all these years.

181
00:09:38,286 --> 00:09:40,746
I know.
It's all so sinister.

182

- I hate break-ups.
- It ain't over yet.

183
00:09:43,208 --> 00:09:45,417
Call Left's office
and tell him it's Eric.

184
00:09:45,502 --> 00:09:47,419
Ari.

185
00:09:47,504 --> 00:09:50,422
- Oh, it's Hitler's evil twin.
- I need to talk to you.

186
00:09:50,507 --> 00:09:52,758
You know, Dana, the only time I've ever
enjoyed talking to you

187
00:09:52,842 --> 00:09:55,094
- is when your mouth has been full.
- Okay, is that nice?

189
00:09:57,597 --> 00:10:00,140
- Hey, Mr. Murphy.
- Hey, bro, listen, I hate to cancel

190
00:10:00,225 --> 00:10:03,143
on such short notice, but Vince isn't
gonna be able to make lunch.

191
00:10:03,228 --> 00:10:06,563
- Sorry, bro.
- Oh my God. Hold on. Let me get Andy.

192
00:10:06,648 --> 00:10:09,149
You don't need to do that.
Just tell him he's a great big fag.

- All right, see ya.

- You ain't seen nothing yet.

00:10:15,907 --> 00:10:16,991
What's up, Dana?

196
00:10:17,075 --> 00:10:18,742
I'm gonna tell you something,
but you have to swear

197
00:10:18,827 --> 00:10:20,869
- it's not gonna come back to me.
- As always, hand on heart.

198
00:10:20,954 --> 00:10:23,539
- Ari, please.
- I swear.

199
00:10:23,623 --> 00:10:25,374
Alan's not gonna make
this movie.

200
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:27,376
He bought it just
to spite Vince,

201
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:29,461
and he's gonna stick it
in a drawer.

202
00:10:29,546 --> 00:10:33,424
- Jesus, he really is crazy.
- Mm-hmm.

203
00:10:33,508 --> 00:10:36,468
- Why you telling me this?
- Because I hate working for him,

204
00:10:36,553 --> 00:10:38,971
and I want out.
And, Ari, come on.

205
00:10:39,055 --> 00:10:42,016
I mean, I love this movie.
I grew up on the Ramones,

206
00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:45,519
and I love it for Vince, so get me
on as a producer.

207
00:10:45,603 --> 00:10:47,688
Sure, how?

208
00:10:47,772 --> 00:10:50,899
- It's Alan's movie.
- No, not yet it isn't.

209
00:10:50,984 --> 00:10:53,235
They're still negotiating
Bob's perk package.

210
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,030
So just make sure
he doesn't sign those papers.

right now, I'm game.

Rain check, Ari.

215
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:16,759
Was a little corporate, huh?

216
00:11:16,843 --> 00:11:18,302
Yeah, I felt like I was
in Trump's boardroom.

217
00:11:18,386 --> 00:11:20,012
Well, an overall score
of 22.5

218
00:11:20,096 --> 00:11:22,014
doesn't bode well
for them anyway.

219
00:11:22,098 --> 00:11:25,392
Yeah, but still, if that assistant calls
me back, maybe we should go with 'em.

220
00:11:25,477 --> 00:11:27,227
Hasn't Vince gotten you
laid enough, Turtle?

221
00:11:27,312 --> 00:11:29,229
Well, that depends.
What's your definition of enough?

We're here to meet
Andy Left for lunch.

224
00:11:33,151 --> 00:11:36,362
Andy Left canceled his
reservation over an hour ago.

225
00:11:36,446 --> 00:11:38,739
- Are you sure?
- That's what it says, yeah.

226

The guy doesn't even bother
to call you?

227

I'd say that's a substantial point loss
in the service area.

228
00:11:43,912 --> 00:11:47,539
Forget about points, Turtle.
That earns Left a bitch-slap.

Take it easy, Drama.
I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.

They said that Andy canceled lunch.

- You canceled lunch, Eric.
- I didn't cancel anything, Lamar.

235

Uh-huh, and I suppose that you didn't
call Andy a big fag, either.

- What?
- Andy would have shed blood,

- Definitely!

- He's cockblocking, Vin.
- Yeah, but how did he know?

- Ari, it's E.

You need to call us
back now. No answer.

- Oh, he's definitely avoiding us.
- Definitely.

to dump Rhona Davies.

gonna take that one?

should I trust you?

330
00:16:27,403 --> 00:16:28,654
I saw him
in this commercial,

331
00:16:28,738 --> 00:16:31,323
and I said, "This kid
has got something," and I was right.

332
00:16:31,407 --> 00:16:33,033
He's more than
a client, Lloyd.

333
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:35,035
He's like my baby.

334
00:16:35,119 --> 00:16:37,329
I love Vince, Lloyd.

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

336
00:16:40,708 --> 00:16:42,668
Ari Gold's office.

337
00:16:42,752 --> 00:16:45,420
- It's Dana Gordon.
- And I love Dana Gordon, too.

338
00:16:47,799 --> 00:16:49,591
I love you,
Dana Gordon.

339
00:16:49,676 --> 00:16:52,636
You swore you would keep your mouth
shut, you slimy piece of shit.

340
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,596
Dana...

341
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:56,848
Even though I know
what a lowlife you are... (SNICKERS)

342
00:16:56,933 --> 00:16:58,642
I always trusted you.

343
00:16:58,726 --> 00:17:01,603
- Ditto, Dana, ditto.
- But you fucked me.

344
00:17:03,272 --> 00:17:05,190
I was desperate, Dana.

345
00:17:05,274 --> 00:17:08,276
Ari, you have one day
to find me another job,

346
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,404
or the next time I see you at The Palm,
I'm going to squeeze

347
00:17:10,488 --> 00:17:13,240
your fucking dick
with a claw cracker, all right?

348
00:17:13,324 --> 00:17:15,242
Miss Gordon, I'm afraid
your five minutes are up.

349
00:17:15,326 --> 00:17:17,202
- It's time to go.
- Fuck you!

350
00:17:17,286 --> 00:17:20,205
Put one hand on me,
and I scream rape.

351
00:17:20,289 --> 00:17:23,542
This is a classic example
of not judging a book by its cover.

352
00:17:23,626 --> 00:17:26,378
- That place was all surface.
- You were right, Drama.

353
00:17:26,462 --> 00:17:30,006
All surface. I don't believe any
of those assistants love to fuck.

354
00:17:30,091 --> 00:17:31,717
You couldn't even get
a number, huh, Turtle?

355
00:17:31,801 --> 00:17:33,385
- Not a one.
- This is depressing.

356
00:17:33,469 --> 00:17:34,928
Maybe we just go
without an agent.

357
00:17:35,012 --> 00:17:37,597
Drama did that for 10 years.
Really worked for him.

358
00:17:37,682 --> 00:17:39,307
Suck it, Turtle.

359
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:41,393
Did you sign
those papers, Bob?

360
00:17:41,477 --> 00:17:44,521
You know, you got that
poor girl fired, Ari.

361
00:17:44,605 --> 00:17:47,315
- Did you sign them?
- I-I felt terrible

362
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,526
about calling Alan,
but this is my baby,

363
00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:52,112
- and she was messing with my baby.
- Bob!

364
00:17:53,489 --> 00:17:56,241
I made a 50-year career,
a half-century career

365
00:17:56,325 --> 00:17:58,034
trusting my instincts,
Ari.

366
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,120
And what the fuck
did your instincts tell you, Bob?

367
00:18:00,204 --> 00:18:02,914
They told me it's a different world
out there today.

368
00:18:02,999 --> 00:18:05,584
Different players.
Different ethics.

369
00:18:05,668 --> 00:18:07,961
Different bullshit.

370
00:18:08,045 --> 00:18:10,589
It's a lot less fun,
and I don't like it.

371
00:18:10,673 --> 00:18:12,257
Bob!

372
00:18:12,341 --> 00:18:15,385
I signed the papers,
Ari.

373
00:18:15,470 --> 00:18:18,305
I don't know
if I was right,

374
00:18:18,389 --> 00:18:20,557
but I signed
the damn papers.

375
00:18:22,852 --> 00:18:25,520
I'm over this town.

376
00:18:25,605 --> 00:18:27,314
I'm sorry.

Yeah, me too, Bob.

Me too.

379
00:18:43,998 --> 00:18:45,916
I don't have anything
good to tell Vince.

380
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,627
Just get him on the phone.
Let me take what's coming.

381
00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:53,840
How is it to take it
in the ass anyway, Lloyd?

382
00:18:53,925 --> 00:18:55,759
I don't know, Ari.
I'm on top.

383
00:18:55,843 --> 00:18:57,719
Come on, really?

384
00:18:58,805 --> 00:19:01,765
Anyway, make the call.

385
00:19:01,849 --> 00:19:04,684
- No.
- No what?

386
00:19:06,562 --> 00:19:07,771
No, I will
not call.

387
00:19:07,855 --> 00:19:09,439
Oh, fuck, this is not
gonna be another one

388
00:19:09,524 --> 00:19:11,483
of your "Queer As Folk"
pep talks, is it, Lloyd?

389
00:19:11,567 --> 00:19:14,069
Yes, Ari, yes, it is.
And it's gonna be a good one.

390
00:19:15,738 --> 00:19:18,198
Look, you said first
rule of an agent is not to call a client

391
00:19:18,282 --> 00:19:20,909
till you have good news.
Well, you have no good news.

392
00:19:20,993 --> 00:19:24,246
But I have news for you, Ari Gold.
Yes, you screwed up.

393
00:19:24,330 --> 00:19:27,082
Yes, you were devious.
Yes, you were conniving.

394
00:19:27,166 --> 00:19:29,376
But, yes, you care.

395
00:19:29,460 --> 00:19:31,878

when you throw

397
00:19:34,465 --> 00:19:36,383
that you really do care.

398
00:19:36,467 --> 00:19:38,385
Vince knows that.
Just remind him.

399
00:19:40,346 --> 00:19:43,765
You're right, Lloyd.
Look at this place.

402

Make the call.
Tell every agent

403
00:19:50,273 --> 00:19:52,524
in this building
to get prepared.

404
00:19:52,608 --> 00:19:55,318
- For what?
- For battle, Lloyd.

405
00:19:55,403 --> 00:19:57,362

00:20:10,543 --> 00:20:13,378
So we should talk.

411
00:20:13,462 --> 00:20:16,339
Yeah, Ari, we should, but you're a tough
man to get on the phone.

412
00:20:16,424 --> 00:20:18,049
We should talk
in person.

413
00:20:18,134 --> 00:20:20,844
- All right, I'll drop in.
- When can you be here?

414
00:20:20,928 --> 00:20:24,681
- 20 minutes.
- See you then.

00:20:29,145 --> 00:20:31,730
He's coming.
I'm actually nervous.

416

- That's cute, Ari.
- Get out of my office, Lloyd.

417
00:20:38,112 --> 00:20:41,281
- Should have just done it on the phone.
- It's the right thing to do.

418
00:20:41,365 --> 00:20:43,950
Look him in the eye, let him know
exactly why this is happening.

for the rest of his life.

a mistake.

You saw what all those
cookie-cutter guys were like today.

They're all the same.
An agent by nature

432
00:21:16,692 --> 00:21:18,610
is a lying, money-hungry
cocksucker.

433

That's the breed,
and Ari is best in breed.

How do we know that, Drama?
We've never been with anybody else.

435
00:21:24,617 --> 00:21:27,160
I have. I've had 15 different agents
over the years,

436

and only that few,
'cause I'm a loyal guy.

to get dropped

Please, Turtle,
if my pilot gets picked up,

00:21:35,211 --> 00:21:37,504
I could sign with anyone I want,
and you know what?

where we stand with him.

He's not like all those other guys.

But he did
fuck us on this.

447
00:21:56,857 --> 00:22:00,318
And as our friend,
he should say he's sorry.

Maybe he will, Vince.
Maybe he will.

- What is this, Ari?
- Yeah, Ari.

of a face to face thing.

about the past today.

496
00:24:23,879 --> 00:24:26,089
begging and pleading,
trying to get you that movie back.

497
00:24:26,173 --> 00:24:29,926
But it's gone. The past is the past.
Let's look to the future.

498
00:24:30,010 --> 00:24:32,595
You're unreal. I mean, even after
you fuck up like this,

499
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,974
you can't even muster
the strength to just, as my friend,

500
00:24:36,058 --> 00:24:38,476
look me in the face
and say "I'm sorry."

501
00:24:38,561 --> 00:24:41,020
- That's all you wanted?
- That's all I wanted.

502
00:24:41,105 --> 00:24:43,439
Then I'm sorry, Vin.

503
00:24:43,524 --> 00:24:45,525
It's too late.

504
00:24:45,609 --> 00:24:47,569
- Vince.
- Ari.

505
00:24:47,653 --> 00:24:50,196
- You're fired.
- Let's roll.

506
00:24:51,782 --> 00:24:53,658
