Ah.
Guess you got me there.
So, what can I do for you, Chuck?
It's a simple assignment,
easily accomplished.
Use your access to help
close out this case
against your momentary boss,
then rejoin the righteous.
You want me to be a cuckoo bird,
sneaking my eggs into
another mother's nest.
Yes, when the egg cracks open:
destruction.
Beautiful and total.
You would be well-rewarded.
Rewarded.
How?
Well, when Axe Capital is
inevitably found guilty
of securities violations,
you have my assurance my word
that you, as Head of Compliance,
would be protected.
[smacks lips] Look, see, the problem is:
I'm not some cuckoo bird, Chuck.
I'm a golden eagle.
[squawks]
So why would I do anything for you?
It's unfortunate I have to say it.
You know what I have on you.
You mean accusations of a
decades-old impropriety
Date rape.
We're not in Hollywood, Chuck.
Nothing's gonna happen.
Say it loud enough,
they might even make me president.
mid-tempo music
[knock on door]
Probably not your best move right now.
I need you to hear what
you wouldn't let me say
- in the courtroom.
- I heard what you said.
But you hear me: Men like Axelrod
do what they need to do.
You counter not in here,
in the courtroom.
With evidence.
- In a week?
- In a week.
Goodbye, Mr.
Connerty.
[pages turn]
[sighs] No!
Why the hell would you
risk coming to my chambers
just to turn heel and walk out?
What weak cheese is that?
You said "goodbye.
"
I'm a judge.
I give orders all day.
You're a litigator.
You find a way to disobey them
without getting nailed for it.
Then I'm not leaving until
you give me an answer.
That sensation you're feeling,
it's known as the Dip.
Seth Godin coined it.
Feels like the moment before defeat.
It's actually the moment before success.
Feels more like Death Valley.
You care so fucking much.
I love that.
I love that.
You're meant for this shit.
Dig in, man.
The world has lost countless
artists and artisans
and engineers and even
politicians who quit
because they cared too
much to come up short
and yet also too much to keep going.
You push through that Dip right now,
maybe you put Axelrod
where he needs to be.
[breathing heavily]
Why are you out of breath?
Bike ride.
I have a recumbent.
Great for the hills out here.
Of course.
More aerodynamic.
Where are you?
Meditation room.
Oh.
I'll go to mine, too!
Why you hiding out in there?
I'm not hiding.
My office has been commandeered.
I'm working through
issues with my algorithm
and it's the only place that's quiet.
You ran another back-test?
My programmers didn't
correct for slippage.
They're software, not finance.
I have a vision for it that
I haven't yet been able
to realize in my design.
A phrase uttered by the architect
of every great invention.
I can keep tweaking it and
improve it incrementally,
or
Or start over.
Crap.
Yes.
I'd have to gut it.
Feel like I just kicked
over your Lego city.
What you said is true.
Just frustrating.
Breaking trail is a lonely calling.
Hang in.
dramatic music
Fuck.
Uh-oh.
[intercom beeps] Send in Orrin Bach.
[Spyros] They're gonna like this.
You're doing a great job.
- I promise.
- Sorry.
I know I'm not allowed
in the clubhouse, but Axe?
The baton is in my hand.
Sign this standard retainer letter.
[door closes]
You know what my favorite
Olympic event is?
[sighs]
It's the four by 100 meter relay.
Because it's about teamwork.
It's about the pass.
Right now, I've got the baton.
But I'm passing it to you, Axe.
You're the anchor.
You're gonna bring it home.
You are gonna win.
What am I gonna win?
[Spyros] Your case.
Because of the baton?
Yes.
Which in this case is
not an actual baton,
but is Dr.
Wendy Rhoades.
- What?
- Wendy?
I've been doing a little
sleuthing about the IPO;
you know, winners and losers.
And I discover that one particular fund
made a killing that
day shorting the stock.
So I look to see whose account it is,
and I notice there's an irregularity.
So I keep digging,
and lo and behold it's Wendy's.
The name on the account had been
flipped with someone else's.
Now this is the first time she
has ever even made a trade,
herself, in her whole
history at Axe Cap.
So I get a buddy of mine who
works for the NSA to find out
where she was when she called in
- the order for the short.
- Wait.
You had the NSA look into Wendy?
Completely off-book.
But guess where it pinged?
Southern District of New York.
[Spyros] Chuck's office.
