00:01:17,661 --> 00:01:20,246
All right.
You got the whole thing?

3
00:01:20,330 --> 00:01:23,332
I got the whole thing 1400 different
ways already, Drama.

4
00:01:23,417 --> 00:01:25,209
Just keep snapping.
It's digital.

5
00:01:25,294 --> 00:01:27,086
- There is no waste.
- Yeah, only my time.

6
00:01:27,171 --> 00:01:29,922
Come on, come on. We're not going
anywhere until somebody recognizes me.

7
00:01:31,175 --> 00:01:32,717
Favor me, but get some
of the other guys too.

8
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:35,928
- Okay.
- There you go.

9
00:01:36,013 --> 00:01:38,264
Hey, jerk-off!
What kind of loser

10
00:01:38,348 --> 00:01:40,057
takes pictures in front of his
own billboard?

11
00:01:40,726 --> 00:01:42,226
There you go, Drama.
You've been recognized.

12
00:01:42,561 --> 00:01:44,187
E don't count.
It's gotta be a stranger.

13
00:01:44,271 --> 00:01:45,730
VINCE: Johnny, it looks good.

14
00:01:45,814 --> 00:01:47,356
Looks like it's
gonna be a big hit.

15
00:01:48,233 --> 00:01:50,276
- Thanks, bro!
- We're off to Amanda's.

16
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,779
Yo, Vince, don't forget
to invite her to your birthday party.

17
00:01:52,863 --> 00:01:55,239
Don't worry, she'll be there.
You just make sure it's a good one.

18
00:01:55,699 --> 00:01:57,366
Like we'd throw
you anything less?

19
00:01:57,451 --> 00:01:59,368
- Nice.
- Later, guys.

20
00:02:00,287 --> 00:02:01,913
DRAMA: Later. Oh, here comes
some chicks.

21
00:02:01,997 --> 00:02:04,123
Keep snapping.
See if they recognize me.

22
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:07,627
- Hey.
- Hey.

23
00:02:07,711 --> 00:02:09,420
Was that Vince Chase
you were talking to?

24
00:02:13,967 --> 00:02:15,593
Hey, Vince.
Happy birthday.

25
00:02:15,677 --> 00:02:17,178
Hey,
thank you.

26
00:02:17,262 --> 00:02:20,181
- Happy birthday, Vince.
- Thanks!

27
00:02:20,265 --> 00:02:22,600
- Happy birthday, Vince.
- Thank you.

28
00:02:23,894 --> 00:02:26,813
Hey, is that my agent or
America's next top model?

29
00:02:27,272 --> 00:02:29,690
Don't patronize me.
I know I look like shit.

30
00:02:29,775 --> 00:02:31,234
I was up all night
fighting with my ex.

31
00:02:31,318 --> 00:02:33,444
- Over the house again?
- No, the dog.

32
00:02:33,529 --> 00:02:36,823

of a labradoodle?

33
00:02:37,157 --> 00:02:38,282

Who did their required
reading last night?

36
00:02:43,372 --> 00:02:44,497
How many?

37
00:02:44,581 --> 00:02:45,748
I read
four of them.

38
00:02:45,833 --> 00:02:47,124
That's impressive.
Vince?

39
00:02:47,584 --> 00:02:48,918
I read half of three.

40
00:02:49,545 --> 00:02:51,128
Look, Amanda,
you have to understand

41
00:02:51,255 --> 00:02:53,172
that you sent some
very large scripts.

42
00:02:53,257 --> 00:02:55,174
It's true. The scripts Ari
used to send us

43
00:02:55,259 --> 00:02:57,969
were in the 90-to-104-page range.
Yours are closer to 140.

44
00:02:58,053 --> 00:02:59,512
It leaves me no
time for skin care.

(PHONE RINGING)

46
00:03:00,973 --> 00:03:03,015
I'm surprised Ari doesn't
just send coverage.

47
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:04,350
That's all he
reads anyway.

48
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:08,688
Look, I can find you
another popcorn movie, no problem,

49
00:03:08,772 --> 00:03:10,982
but you asked me to find something
you could sink your teeth into.

50
00:03:11,191 --> 00:03:13,401
Do you have something?
'Cause none of these quite got us.

51
00:03:14,152 --> 00:03:15,361
This one will.

52
00:03:15,445 --> 00:03:17,321
You guys know
I don't hard-sell,

53
00:03:17,447 --> 00:03:20,241
but this
is the one.

54
00:03:20,617 --> 00:03:22,243
127 pages.

55
00:03:22,452 --> 00:03:23,703
Manageable.

56
00:03:25,539 --> 00:03:28,291
It's Edith Wharton's
"Glimpses of the Moon."

57
00:03:28,625 --> 00:03:30,293
Studio's been trying
to tackle it for years,

58
00:03:30,377 --> 00:03:31,836
nobody could get
a handle on it.

59
00:03:32,296 --> 00:03:34,922
Steve Zaillian did.
The script is wonderful.

60
00:03:35,007 --> 00:03:36,173
Did you guys like
"Age of Innocence"?

61
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:37,884
I don't remember
the story,

62
00:03:37,968 --> 00:03:39,969
but I do remember after seeing it
I knew how to hold my fork.

63
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:42,471
ERIC: I liked "Age of Innocence."
Is Scorsese doing this?

64
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:43,973
No, Sam Mendes is.

65
00:03:44,099 --> 00:03:45,933
Oh, Sam Mendes.
I love "American Beauty."

66
00:03:46,143 --> 00:03:47,935
Great.
Read at least 90, then.

67
00:03:48,979 --> 00:03:50,646
And they need
a quick answer.

68
00:03:51,315 --> 00:03:52,982
Looks like we have
homework tonight.

69
00:03:53,984 --> 00:03:55,067
No, not tonight.

70
00:03:55,694 --> 00:03:57,653
Come on, tonight we're celebrating
somebody's birthday.

71
00:03:57,946 --> 00:03:59,071
Hey, she remembered.

72
00:03:59,156 --> 00:04:00,656

get me?

You're all
welcome.

How is the party
planning coming?

78
00:04:15,672 --> 00:04:17,214
I'm sure it's
gonna be sick.

79
00:04:17,424 --> 00:04:20,217
I'm running things,
so use your imagination.

80
00:04:20,344 --> 00:04:23,679
I'm picturing lots of strippers
and porn stars, Turtle.

81
00:04:23,764 --> 00:04:26,265
He's promised us he's gonna invite
some regular girls too.

82
00:04:26,516 --> 00:04:29,018
Just a couple.
You got to come help fill the quota.

83
00:04:29,227 --> 00:04:30,478
I wouldn't
miss it.

You're welcome to
bring a guest...

85
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:34,690

someone special.

there is nobody,
but thank you, Johnny.

- Uh-huh.

Oh, Jesus, the house
that I built!

97
00:05:10,394 --> 00:05:12,061
Maybe it was
his birthday present.

98
00:05:12,187 --> 00:05:13,396
You think?

99
00:05:14,648 --> 00:05:17,191
I put him on the fucking court
on Arbor Day,

100
00:05:17,275 --> 00:05:18,484
and that's
her present?

101
00:05:18,568 --> 00:05:20,152
God, she's so
fucking wrong for him.

102
00:05:20,237 --> 00:05:23,155
Oh, Ari, I hate
to see you like this.

103
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,407
Shut up, Lloyd,
I'll be fine.

104
00:05:24,491 --> 00:05:25,866
Your horoscope
doesn't think so.

105
00:05:25,951 --> 00:05:28,577
It said this was going to be a very
tumultuous week.

106
00:05:29,705 --> 00:05:31,706
I bet she'll be at
his birthday party.

107
00:05:31,790 --> 00:05:32,832
Fuck!

108
00:05:32,916 --> 00:05:35,418
He'll probably let her
blow out his candles.

109
00:05:35,919 --> 00:05:37,044
Still no
invite for me, huh?

110
00:05:37,129 --> 00:05:39,880
Not from Vince.
But we did receive an evite

111
00:05:39,965 --> 00:05:41,924
to Patrick Dempsey's house
for running charades.

112
00:05:42,968 --> 00:05:45,511
You know, I've spent Vince's
last five birthdays with him.

113
00:05:45,595 --> 00:05:47,805
I know.
And you know

114
00:05:47,931 --> 00:05:50,141
your present's gonna be
so much better than hers.

115
00:05:50,225 --> 00:05:52,476
It is, Lloyd, it is.
And you want to know why?

116
00:05:52,561 --> 00:05:55,604
Because I'm actually
giving him something that he wants.

117
00:05:55,731 --> 00:05:56,772
Aww.

118
00:06:00,068 --> 00:06:01,277
What the fuck
does that mean?

119
00:06:01,820 --> 00:06:03,362
Heartbreak.

120
00:06:08,452 --> 00:06:10,077
Okay, we need
to talk party.

121
00:06:10,162 --> 00:06:12,038
I think we need
to lose the venue.

122
00:06:12,122 --> 00:06:13,706
Why?
Privilege is great.

123
00:06:13,790 --> 00:06:15,541
They only serve
liquor till 2:00 AM.

124
00:06:15,625 --> 00:06:17,209
We want this thing
to go all night.

125
00:06:17,294 --> 00:06:19,628
Or all morning,
as the ladies come a'running.

126
00:06:19,713 --> 00:06:21,589
Whatever, Turtle.
Your point?

127
00:06:21,673 --> 00:06:24,008
What about Ari?
Does he make the guest list?

128
00:06:24,301 --> 00:06:25,968
No. No no no
no no no no.

129
00:06:26,053 --> 00:06:27,845
No exes
at a birthday party.

130
00:06:27,971 --> 00:06:30,222
- Never never never.
- Hey, that's Vince's call.

131
00:06:30,307 --> 00:06:32,641
I think baby bro was a little freaked
out about seeing him last night.

132
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:34,602
Nah, Vince
don't get rattled.

133
00:06:34,686 --> 00:06:36,479
Besides us and his mother,
Ari is the longest

134
00:06:36,563 --> 00:06:38,814
relationship Vince has ever had.
He must've been a little rattled.

135
00:06:38,899 --> 00:06:42,109
That's why it's best after a breakup,
professional or otherwise,

136
00:06:42,194 --> 00:06:44,070
to split the town
into even territories.

137
00:06:44,154 --> 00:06:45,821
Ari pays 200 grand a year
for those tickets.

138
00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:47,823
I doubt we can have him banned
him from the Staples Center.

139
00:06:47,908 --> 00:06:50,201
- Yo yo.
- Morning, bro.

140
00:06:50,285 --> 00:06:52,578
- Eggs benedict?
- Yeah, that'd be great, Johnny.

141
00:06:52,662 --> 00:06:56,207
Hey, E, the script is good.
Real good.

142
00:06:56,291 --> 00:06:58,125
- Wow, you read it?
- Cover to cover.

143
00:06:58,210 --> 00:06:59,919
- When?
- Last night.

144
00:07:00,003 --> 00:07:03,422
- Couldn't sleep, bro?
- No, I slept like a baby.

145
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:07,468
So, E, looks like I beat you
this time, huh?

146
00:07:07,552 --> 00:07:08,844
Guess again.
I read it.

147
00:07:09,179 --> 00:07:10,179
And?

148
00:07:10,263 --> 00:07:12,389
I liked it.
What I understood of it, anyway.

149
00:07:12,474 --> 00:07:15,267
Yeah, I did run to my dictionary
a couple times.

150
00:07:15,352 --> 00:07:17,186
It's different than anything I ever
thought I'd do,

151
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:19,105
but I love that
Amanda thinks like this.

152
00:07:19,356 --> 00:07:22,024
I'll call her, have her set up a meet-
and-greet with Mendes.

153
00:07:22,317 --> 00:07:24,276
Actually, you know what?
I'll call her.

154
00:07:24,361 --> 00:07:26,612
I want her to know I'm taking
this very seriously.

(PHONE RINGING)

156
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,074
Hey, maybe
that's her now.

157
00:07:30,325 --> 00:07:32,618
We have this weird synch,
don't you think?

158
00:07:32,744 --> 00:07:34,453
- It's uncanny.
- Hello?

159
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:37,164
Hello?

160
00:07:39,126 --> 00:07:40,668
Did you just
prank Vince?

161
00:07:40,752 --> 00:07:43,838
I never heard the guy answer the phone
before. It spooked me!

162
00:07:43,922 --> 00:07:46,423
He's gonna know it's you.
Our company name comes up.

163
00:07:46,508 --> 00:07:49,677
Why does it come up? Whose idea was
that? What's the fucking point?

164
00:07:49,928 --> 00:07:51,762
- I don't know.
- He's not gonna know it's me.

165
00:07:51,888 --> 00:07:54,140
- It could've been you calling Drama.
- True.

166
00:07:54,224 --> 00:07:56,058
What do I care if
he thinks it was me?

167
00:07:56,143 --> 00:07:59,562
I'm meant to call.
I'm calling him again.

168
00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:01,355
In a minute.

169
00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,649
You call Drama first
so he thinks it was you.

170
00:08:07,612 --> 00:08:08,904
Oh, hey,
Lloyd, what's up?

171
00:08:09,614 --> 00:08:12,491
I bet you're getting some calls
about my billboard, huh?

172
00:08:12,576 --> 00:08:15,411
Uh, no. I haven't heard a thing
about it. Did it go up yet?

173
00:08:15,495 --> 00:08:17,997
Are you kidding?
It's huge.

174
00:08:18,081 --> 00:08:19,665
You obviously
don't drive Sunset.

175
00:08:19,749 --> 00:08:21,584
To and from work every day,
but I'll look again.

176
00:08:21,918 --> 00:08:23,252
- Do.
- I will.

177
00:08:24,379 --> 00:08:25,838
So, listen,

178
00:08:25,922 --> 00:08:27,840
as long as I've got you on the phone,
is Vince there?

179
00:08:27,924 --> 00:08:29,008
What the fuck are you doing?

180
00:08:29,092 --> 00:08:32,344
What you should've done a long time
ago... getting your man back.

181
00:08:32,929 --> 00:08:34,180
So is he
there?

182
00:08:34,264 --> 00:08:36,056
Yeah, he's here,
Lloyd, why?

183
00:08:36,141 --> 00:08:37,766
'Cause, I don't know,
you know,

184
00:08:37,976 --> 00:08:39,768
Ari's here too.
Maybe they should say hi.

185
00:08:39,978 --> 00:08:41,896
I don't think that's such
a great idea.

186
00:08:41,980 --> 00:08:45,691
Put him on the phone, Johnny, or no more
agency comps at Burke Williams.

187
00:08:47,444 --> 00:08:49,028
Someone wants to
talk to you, bro.

188
00:08:52,407 --> 00:08:55,034
- Vinnie boy!
- Hey, Ari.

189
00:08:55,285 --> 00:08:57,369
- How you doing?
- I'm doing great.

190
00:08:57,454 --> 00:09:00,623
I'm doing great.
You know, how you doing?

191
00:09:01,333 --> 00:09:03,292
I'm doing.
I'm doing.

192
00:09:04,711 --> 00:09:06,879
Listen, I don't want
to beat around the bush.

193
00:09:06,963 --> 00:09:09,340
It's your birthday and it made me
realize how much I miss you.

194
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:13,052
I mean, not like Lloyd
misses you, but friends-wise.

195
00:09:13,178 --> 00:09:15,221
So, uh, I mean,
you miss me, Vinnie?

196
00:09:15,305 --> 00:09:17,223
Yeah...
you know,

197
00:09:17,307 --> 00:09:18,724
friends-wise,
I miss you, yeah.

198
00:09:18,808 --> 00:09:21,143
Great great.
That's great. Listen, uh...

199
00:09:24,981 --> 00:09:26,690
I got a...
I got a gift for you,

200
00:09:26,775 --> 00:09:29,026
and I could just, uh, you know,
I could send it over.

201
00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:30,611
But I, you know,
I'd love to see you.

202
00:09:30,695 --> 00:09:32,738
I'd rather see your
face and, you know,

203
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:35,282
grab some dinner,
so, uh, catch up.

204
00:09:35,617 --> 00:09:38,118
Bring E if you want.
What do you say?

205
00:09:39,496 --> 00:09:40,663
Um...

206
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:43,332
Make it lunch.
No dinner.

207
00:09:43,416 --> 00:09:44,667
Why not dinner?

208
00:09:44,751 --> 00:09:46,418
You're leading him
on with dinner.

209
00:09:46,544 --> 00:09:49,296
You're saying something I don't
think you want to say.

210
00:09:49,381 --> 00:09:50,881
And what
am I saying?

211
00:09:50,966 --> 00:09:53,467
That you want to jump back in
the sack with him.

212
00:09:53,551 --> 00:09:55,427
I mean, come on,
do you ever go to dinner

213
00:09:55,512 --> 00:09:57,221
with a disgruntled ex,
and she really

214
00:09:57,347 --> 00:09:59,765
wasn't just looking
for some tasty dessert?

215
00:09:59,849 --> 00:10:01,976
I agree with Drama. I mean, he's making
me sick with the metaphors,

216
00:10:02,060 --> 00:10:03,435
but Ari's not doing
this out of friendship.

217
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,812
We'll make it lunch.

218
00:10:04,896 --> 00:10:06,397
You could still have
dessert after lunch.

219
00:10:06,481 --> 00:10:07,856
Better make
it a coffee.

220
00:10:07,983 --> 00:10:11,860
Good thinking. Coffee says "I sip,
but I ain't sucking."

221
00:10:12,195 --> 00:10:13,529
What the fuck is wrong
with you, Drama?

222
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:16,782
Cursed with wisdom is all.
Oh, yeah.

223
00:10:16,866 --> 00:10:19,493
- That looks good.
- Oh, that's in the hole.

224
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:21,036
- (WHISPERING)
- VINCE: Hey hey hey.

225
00:10:21,121 --> 00:10:23,580
- What's this? No secrets.
- I'm with Vince.

226
00:10:23,665 --> 00:10:26,583
The whispering stops, or nobody's
getting a soufflé at dinner tonight.

227
00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:28,794
Relax, Drama.
It's about the party venue.

228
00:10:29,045 --> 00:10:31,714
If it's about money, you don't have
to spend a lot to throw me a party.

229
00:10:32,132 --> 00:10:34,383
Remember ninth grade?
You surprised me at Friendly's.

230
00:10:35,010 --> 00:10:37,094
- That was awesome.
- DRAMA: Yeah it was.

231
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:39,096
And I got jerked off by the girl
who made the fribbles.

232
00:10:39,806 --> 00:10:41,307
We're not doing this party
at Friendly's, Vince,

233
00:10:41,391 --> 00:10:44,018
and you're not paying for anything.
Turtle, did you take care of the booze?

234
00:10:44,102 --> 00:10:45,102
Done.

235
00:10:45,186 --> 00:10:46,895
- Give me back my Visa.
- No problem.

236
00:10:47,272 --> 00:10:50,983
Wow, Turtle, I've never seen you
cough up plastic so easily.

237
00:10:51,067 --> 00:10:53,152
That's 'cause I still
got the kid's MasterCard,

238
00:10:53,236 --> 00:10:54,820
and that's the one
I'm keeping for the venue.

239
00:10:54,904 --> 00:10:57,948
Hey, jerk-off, you're a grown man.
Get yourself some credit.

240
00:11:00,744 --> 00:11:02,036
You like it or you love it?

241
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,912
- VINCE: I love it.
- Great.

242
00:11:04,122 --> 00:11:06,415
That's all I need to hear.
I'll set the meeting with Sam.

243
00:11:06,499 --> 00:11:07,750
Okay, great.

244
00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:11,003
Listen, Amanda,
I gotta go.

245
00:11:11,087 --> 00:11:13,213
- I'll check in with you a little later.
- Okay.

246
00:11:13,298 --> 00:11:14,340
- Bye.
- Bye.

247
00:11:14,424 --> 00:11:17,009
Remember: He starts talking business,
change the subject.

248
00:11:17,093 --> 00:11:19,178
You don't think we can have a friendly
conversation with Ari?

249
00:11:19,262 --> 00:11:20,804
I don't think I've ever had
a conversation with him

250
00:11:20,889 --> 00:11:22,348
where he didn't
want something. You?

251
00:11:22,432 --> 00:11:24,558
- I'll change the subject.
- ARl: Boys!

252
00:11:24,642 --> 00:11:26,226
Boys, look at that.

253
00:11:26,561 --> 00:11:28,520
Wouldn't even have dinner
with me, huh?

254
00:11:28,605 --> 00:11:31,315
(GROANS) Weird. Kinda feels like
I'm trying to fuck you guys.

255
00:11:31,399 --> 00:11:32,691
Are you?

256
00:11:33,568 --> 00:11:35,861
Look at that... E!
I love it, huh?

257
00:11:35,945 --> 00:11:38,364
Still got little-man's complex
enough to want to fight.

258
00:11:38,448 --> 00:11:40,324
Sit down.
Sit down.

259
00:11:51,586 --> 00:11:53,754
- So...
- BOTH: So...

260
00:11:55,131 --> 00:11:58,050
So happy fucking birthday.

261
00:11:58,134 --> 00:12:00,844
Oh wow, Ari, thanks.

262
00:12:00,929 --> 00:12:02,054
What is it?

263
00:12:02,138 --> 00:12:04,765
Something that you
really really want.

264
00:12:04,974 --> 00:12:08,060
You know what?
Wait till later to open it. For now...

265
00:12:08,144 --> 00:12:10,562
let's put surprises aside
and just enjoy

266
00:12:10,647 --> 00:12:12,815
one another's company.
We can do that, right?

267
00:12:13,483 --> 00:12:14,900
We can try.

268
00:12:15,151 --> 00:12:16,944
(NERVOUS CHUCKLES)

269
00:12:18,363 --> 00:12:20,280
DRAMA: A booze cruise,
I like it.

270
00:12:20,365 --> 00:12:22,157
TURTLE: No last call
on the open water.

271
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:23,992
And no neighbors
to complain about the noise.

272
00:12:24,327 --> 00:12:28,580
Holy shit, look at that...
another billboard. I'm everywhere.

273
00:12:28,957 --> 00:12:31,083
Spreading like the plague
that you are, Drama.

274
00:12:31,167 --> 00:12:33,419
- Does that guy look familiar to you?
- Huh?

275
00:12:33,503 --> 00:12:36,130
- On the billboard. That's me.
- Oh, congrats.

276
00:12:36,214 --> 00:12:37,965
But I can't see that far
without my glasses.

277
00:12:39,092 --> 00:12:40,926
(FAINTLY) You ever hear of Lasik?

278
00:12:41,469 --> 00:12:42,761
So what's the price
on this thing?

279
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:46,223
- 20 Gs for the night.
- 20 Gs, huh?

280
00:12:46,307 --> 00:12:48,434
- Is that a problem?
- No no no, no problem.

281
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:51,520
- What's the capacity?
- 200, 250 max.

282
00:12:52,355 --> 00:12:54,314
See, that, my friend,
is a problem.

283
00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:56,275
You got anything
that's a little bigger?

284
00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:59,611
- Not a word about business, E.
- Very impressive.

285
00:12:59,696 --> 00:13:01,196
Should I invite him
to the party?

286
00:13:01,281 --> 00:13:02,781
You wanna invite him
to the party?

287
00:13:02,866 --> 00:13:04,074
I wanna invite him
to the party.

288
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,534
Then you should
invite him to the party.

289
00:13:05,869 --> 00:13:07,661
Here he comes.

290
00:13:08,705 --> 00:13:10,998
All right, what do you guys
think about dessert?

291
00:13:11,082 --> 00:13:12,458
- No.
- No dessert.

292
00:13:12,542 --> 00:13:14,376
- All right, just the check then.
- I already got it, Ari.

293
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:17,629
Wow, E, you are really
officially keeping this unofficial.

294
00:13:17,964 --> 00:13:19,423
Just friends, Ari,
just friends.

295
00:13:19,507 --> 00:13:21,842
Just friends, absolutely.

296
00:13:22,385 --> 00:13:24,511
So, Ari, I'm having a little...

297
00:13:24,596 --> 00:13:26,889
I'd love to come to your
party, Vinnie. Thank you.

298
00:13:26,973 --> 00:13:29,391
I'm afraid this card
has been declined.

299
00:13:31,686 --> 00:13:33,312
Trouble on the home front, E?

300
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:35,898
No, it's all good.
I got it.

301
00:13:36,357 --> 00:13:38,525
Calm down, E! You're gonna give
yourself a stroke.

302
00:13:38,610 --> 00:13:41,069
You maxed out three of my fucking
credit cards, Turtle!

303
00:13:41,154 --> 00:13:43,906
- That's worse than a stroke.
- I'm a little over budget, that's all.

304
00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:45,199
How much is a little?

305
00:13:45,408 --> 00:13:47,451
What are you talking about?
You were with him the whole time.

306
00:13:47,535 --> 00:13:49,411
I didn't have my calculator with me.

307
00:13:49,496 --> 00:13:52,414
You're about to dip into your own
pocket... better learn to finger count.

308
00:13:52,749 --> 00:13:54,625
Exactly how far over budget
are you, Turtle?

309
00:13:55,835 --> 00:13:57,628
50... maybe!

310
00:13:57,754 --> 00:14:00,047
50? The whole budget
was supposed to be 50.

311
00:14:00,173 --> 00:14:02,257
E, this party's gonna suck
if we don't do it up.

312
00:14:02,383 --> 00:14:05,636
- We have an 800-person guest list.
- It's supposed to be 200.

313
00:14:05,762 --> 00:14:07,054
It's not my fault
Vince is popular.

314
00:14:07,138 --> 00:14:08,889
It's a disease
in the Chase lineage.

315
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:11,183
All right.

316
00:14:11,267 --> 00:14:13,268
I'll go up to 35 grand
and that's it.

317
00:14:13,353 --> 00:14:16,355
So unless you and Drama are planning
on ponying up more of your own cash,

318
00:14:16,439 --> 00:14:17,856
that brings us
to a grand total of 60.

319
00:14:17,941 --> 00:14:19,650
- What about what I spent?
- Get it back.

320
00:14:19,734 --> 00:14:21,652
- Yeah, get it back.
- Fuck you, Drama.

321
00:14:21,736 --> 00:14:24,154
We're gonna celebrate your
40th at Chuck E. Cheese.

322
00:14:24,572 --> 00:14:26,448
Are you guys fighting
over the party?

323
00:14:27,075 --> 00:14:29,618
Fighting? We're not fighting.
Did you hear fighting?

324
00:14:29,786 --> 00:14:31,537
Why don't you guys just
let me pay for it, really?

325
00:14:31,621 --> 00:14:33,539
'Cause it's our present
to you, Vince, so stop.

326
00:14:33,623 --> 00:14:35,290
Okay. Okay.

327
00:14:36,626 --> 00:14:38,377
You guys want to see
Ari's present to me?

328
00:14:38,461 --> 00:14:40,087
ERIC: Yeah.

329
00:14:43,550 --> 00:14:46,093
"Medellin"?
Is this a joke?

330
00:14:48,930 --> 00:14:51,390
- Did he like it, E?
- What the fuck does it mean, Ari?

331
00:14:51,474 --> 00:14:55,143
It means that Vince doesn't have to do
some paint-drying Edith Wharton novel.

332
00:14:55,311 --> 00:14:58,397
- How'd you know about that?
- It is my job to know all, E.

333
00:14:58,481 --> 00:15:01,567
Do you know Edith Wharton?
Always the same movie.

334
00:15:01,651 --> 00:15:03,610
Guy can't fuck the girl
for five years

335
00:15:03,695 --> 00:15:07,155
'cause those were the times.
Can Vince really relate to that?

336
00:15:07,365 --> 00:15:09,241
(SIGHS) What's up with "Medellin"?

337
00:15:09,325 --> 00:15:11,994
Why don't you check in with your girl?
She should be able to tell you.

338
00:15:12,203 --> 00:15:14,663
- You fucking with us, Ari?
- Why would I do that, E?

339
00:15:14,747 --> 00:15:17,249
We're all friends.
This is a gesture of friendship.

340
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:20,669
Now, as a friend,
I advise you to call your girl

341
00:15:20,753 --> 00:15:23,380
and find out why she didn't
hand it to you first.

342
00:15:26,050 --> 00:15:29,011
Car service for nine grand?!
What's that all about?

343
00:15:29,345 --> 00:15:31,096
That's for drunk girls
to get home safely.

344
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:35,267
We don't need any dead bodies
littering Sunset. Better keep that.

345
00:15:35,476 --> 00:15:37,978
Maybe I could lose the floral
arrangements for four grand.

346
00:15:38,062 --> 00:15:41,815
No no no, nothing gets a girl wet
like a calla-lily centerpiece.

347
00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:44,943
There's just no way to do this!
Maybe we should call it off.

348
00:15:45,028 --> 00:15:47,946
We're not calling it off, Turtle.
We're not getting any younger.

349
00:15:48,031 --> 00:15:49,573
How many of these things
do you think we got left?

350
00:15:49,824 --> 00:15:51,074
We got a lot left.

351
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,452
Don't drag us into
your twilight years, Drama.

352
00:15:53,911 --> 00:15:57,539
Ha, funny. Here, get rid of all
the high-end brand alcohol.

353
00:15:57,707 --> 00:15:59,875
Go generic.
It'll save us a ton.

354
00:16:01,711 --> 00:16:03,211
You know what,

355
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:07,132
why don't we go the complete
opposite way and make us a ton?

356
00:16:07,842 --> 00:16:08,884
I don't follow.

357
00:16:09,385 --> 00:16:10,802
You will.

358
00:16:10,887 --> 00:16:13,013
You will follow me
to the greatest party ever.

Grabbing us
the Yellow Pages.

360
00:16:15,892 --> 00:16:18,894
I don't understand why Ari is sending
you guys scripts in the first place.

361
00:16:18,978 --> 00:16:20,979
This is a movie Vince has been dying
to do for two years,

362
00:16:21,064 --> 00:16:22,314
so he just figured, you know.

363
00:16:22,398 --> 00:16:25,567
No, I don't know, Eric. As far
as I know "Medellin" is not available.

364
00:16:25,902 --> 00:16:27,694
Benicio is signed on
to play Pablo Escobar.

365
00:16:27,904 --> 00:16:29,946
If that changes, you think
it's going to be a big secret?

366
00:16:30,198 --> 00:16:31,198
What are you getting
so upset about?

367
00:16:31,282 --> 00:16:33,742
I'm upset because in order
to do my job, I need to know

368
00:16:33,826 --> 00:16:36,495
I don't have another voice whispering
in my client's ear behind my back.

369
00:16:36,579 --> 00:16:39,247
- You don't.
- Good.

370
00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:41,416
- Make sure Ari knows that.
- I will.

371
00:16:41,793 --> 00:16:43,669
You should know Ari's going to be at
Vince's birthday party.

372
00:16:43,753 --> 00:16:46,171
- You okay with that?
- As long as he's dressed as a friend.

373
00:16:47,215 --> 00:16:48,465
All right.
I'll check in later.

374
00:16:49,008 --> 00:16:50,467
See you, Eric.

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

376
00:16:56,557 --> 00:16:58,392
Why would Ari send
that script if it's not true?

377
00:16:58,476 --> 00:16:59,976
I don't know, but I'm gonna
find out tonight.

378
00:17:00,061 --> 00:17:02,938
Find out tonight, but could we stay off
the business and have a good time?

379
00:17:03,022 --> 00:17:05,357
Seriously, guys,
this is a celebration.

380
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:06,733
Okay okay.

381
00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:10,195
I don't know about you guys, but I
cannot wait to get into that party,

382
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:13,615
- have myself a nice lobster tail.
- Lobster? Nice!

383
00:17:13,908 --> 00:17:15,867
Unless you want some
tasty Kobe beef instead.

384
00:17:15,952 --> 00:17:19,287
We're having that too, Vin.
It's gonna be a surf and turfer's dream.

385
00:17:19,455 --> 00:17:22,040
And what washes surf and turf
down better than Cristal?

386
00:17:22,333 --> 00:17:24,000
Yeah, I upgraded
the champagne too.

387
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:25,752
What the fuck's he talking
about, Drama?

388
00:17:25,837 --> 00:17:27,421
I don't know, E.
I, uh...

389
00:17:27,505 --> 00:17:29,673
- I know nothing.
- It sounds good though.

390
00:17:29,757 --> 00:17:33,051
Come on, E. Can't you just have a little
faith and not doubt me?

391
00:17:33,845 --> 00:17:35,971
Maybe this one time
I'll have made you proud.

392
00:17:36,055 --> 00:17:38,473
- Oh, Turtle, you're breaking my heart.
- Yeah, mine too.

393

by my billboard

00:17:42,145 --> 00:17:44,479
Are you kidding?
Of course we give a fuck!

Oh shit, the light's
busted on it.

397

Turtle, you know how
to stretch a budget.

- What was the budget anyway?
- Yeah, Turtle?

403
00:18:21,392 --> 00:18:23,935
Calm down, E.
I got help from some friends.

- What friends?
- Those friends.

- What's up, baby?
- ERIC: You sponsored the party?

till you see the whole thing.

Nice small party, Turtle.

You're a genius.

Listen, guys, just to get
this out of the way,

419
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:25,831
I called around,
"Medellin" is dead for us.

420
00:19:25,915 --> 00:19:29,334
It's shooting in four weeks with
Benicio. All things are a go.

421
00:19:29,418 --> 00:19:30,627
I'm sorry.

422
00:19:31,045 --> 00:19:32,671
Why would Ari get
our hopes up like that?

- I don't know.
- ERIC: There he is. Let's ask him.

I'll let you guys take care
of your business.

some acupressure.

How are you?

Ari, regifting old projects
again, huh?

429
00:19:45,393 --> 00:19:47,269
I'd expect more for
Vince's birthday present.

430
00:19:47,353 --> 00:19:49,271
Like what?
Like floor seats to the Lakers?

431
00:19:49,397 --> 00:19:51,940
I used to give Vince floor seats
because it was a Thursday!

Guys, be nice.
It's is my birthday.

433
00:19:54,694 --> 00:19:58,196
You are absolutely right, Vince.
I am sorry. Let's bury the hatchet.

434

Happy to, as soon as you tell me why you
sent my client that script.

If you knew Vince
the way I knew Vince,

436

you'd know how badly
he wants that movie.

- That movie is gone.
- Really?

438
00:20:07,957 --> 00:20:09,416
Benicio is doing it, Ari.

439
00:20:09,500 --> 00:20:11,418
Benicio is falling out of
love with it, Vince.

440
00:20:11,502 --> 00:20:14,212
- That's not what I'm hearing.
- Your ears were always tiny, Amanda.

You don't know what
the fuck you're talking about.

- He's messing with your head.
- Wanna bet your client on it?

Tell you what: If it's true,
Vince goes with me.

444

I don't bet my clients.

445
00:20:23,389 --> 00:20:24,890
I thought you didn't even
want me back, Ari?

446
00:20:25,016 --> 00:20:28,059
Yeah, I thought you were acting as a
friend. See, you're never what you seem.

447

Eric, Vince, I need
to talk to you alone.

- So do I.
- Okay, listen,

00:20:31,647 --> 00:20:34,065
because this is the deal.
I will not play this game.

00:20:34,817 --> 00:20:36,484
Vince, you decide right now
who you're with.

451
00:20:36,569 --> 00:20:38,945
- Me or him, period.
- I'm with you, Amanda.

- Ari is just a friend. Right, Ari?
- Yes.

And as a friend for many years,
I am asking you

454
00:20:44,327 --> 00:20:47,329
to take one minute
alone with me. Please.

I'm just shocked I haven't heard
anything about it.

the business. What do you do?

But don't take it
personally.

and I rarely watch TV.

than she does.

to be friends.

who can help me?

474
00:21:37,588 --> 00:21:40,966
I had a goal for you when we first
started. We didn't reach that goal.

475
00:21:41,050 --> 00:21:43,551
We can go out and get
"Medellin" right fucking now.

do it, Vinnie.

You just can't stand
to lose, Ari.

478
00:21:48,015 --> 00:21:51,476
I think that's what it is. I mean,
you've got your big agency now,

479

and your hundreds
of clients, but still...

480
00:21:53,980 --> 00:21:56,690
losing hurts you so much
that you...

481
00:21:57,274 --> 00:21:59,901
you're willing to do anything
no matter how stupid it makes you look.

it makes me look.

I have.

00:22:55,875 --> 00:22:57,584
(CHEERING)

497
00:22:57,668 --> 00:22:59,586
- Make a good wish, Vince!
- Great one.

498
00:22:59,670 --> 00:23:02,797
Hey, don't forget about me, bro!
I had your back all year.

499
00:23:02,923 --> 00:23:04,549
You want me to put you
in my wish, Johnny?

500
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,259
If you don't mind.

501
00:23:06,343 --> 00:23:08,636
What do you want him to wish for, Drama?
That someone recognizes you?

502
00:23:08,721 --> 00:23:11,014
First of all, you don't say what you
want your wish to be out loud,

503
00:23:11,098 --> 00:23:12,515
you dumb fuck.
Second,

504
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,061
I think Vince can figure out a more
rewarding wish to fulfill for me.

505
00:23:16,145 --> 00:23:18,104
Don't worry, I'm gonna wish
for what I always wish for...

506
00:23:18,189 --> 00:23:19,564
that we all
have a great year!

507
00:23:19,648 --> 00:23:20,732
(CHEERING)

508
00:23:20,816 --> 00:23:23,359
You said it out loud!
You fucked us all.

509
00:23:25,196 --> 00:23:27,405
Whoa! Don't blow
anything out yet.

510
00:23:27,490 --> 00:23:30,325
- Mind holding this up while you do it?
- Oh, Jesus, Turtle.

511
00:23:35,831 --> 00:23:37,332
(CHEERING)

512
00:23:37,875 --> 00:23:39,626
Yeah!

513
00:23:41,170 --> 00:23:43,213
- Thank you so much. Happy birthday.
- Thank you.

514
00:23:43,297 --> 00:23:44,881
- Vince. Happy birthday, buddy.
- E.

515
00:23:44,965 --> 00:23:46,758
- Good fucking party.
- So, birthday boy,

516
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:48,593
just got word
from Sam Mendes's people.

517
00:23:48,677 --> 00:23:51,054
They want to skip a meeting
and go right to an offer.

518
00:23:51,138 --> 00:23:53,848
Nice! I like the new team.
It's gonna be a good year.

519
00:23:53,933 --> 00:23:57,769
I agree, but actually, I think we should
hold off on "Glimpses" for a while

520
00:23:57,853 --> 00:23:59,854
just in case Ari's right.

521
