But his father wants to support
the Kevin Durant Charitable Foundation.
To the tune of 50K
So, if it's worth 50K,
it's gotta be worth a 100, right?
We do some really,
really good things, Axe.
All right.
Done.
His name's Stevie.
Stevie, this is KD.
Happy Bar Mitzvah, my man Enjoy.
Bryan Connerty,
meet the head of the New York office.
Assistant Director Frances Lynch.
- Hi.
- In case you didn't know,
Agent McCue vouching for
you is the only reason
I'm considering you for
the Special Counsel job.
So don't fuck it up,
sorry, Director.
I'm used to it from you, McCue.
Don't fuck it up.
Your application didn't have
a rec from the US Attorney,
despite your rep for
being a hell of a lawyer.
Must be a story there.
You ever see the movie Pi?
Is that the story of why Chuck Rhoades
gave you a public flogging?
Figured you knew about that
No, it's about a mathematician.
A numbers theorist really.
3.
14 pi.
- Right.
- Mm-hmm.
This guy programs his
computer all special,
and it spits out a crazy long number
that might be the key to everything.
The stock market, religion,
his fucking life.
In trying to understand it,
he passes out,
and when he wakes up
it's become a part of him.
He can see all the patterns,
all the answers.
Only, he has these crippling headaches.
The burden of divine revelation.
The knowledge is killing him.
So you know what he does?
Puts a power drill right
into his cerebral cortex?
You've seen the movie.
I have.
And at the end of it,
he's sitting on a park bench, serene,
happy to be freed from
knowing too damned much.
Is that you now?
In a way.
You can interpret
that movie straight up.
But there's a bunch of
little things in there
that suggest something else is going on.
He never found the perfect
number that explains it all.
He just wanted it so bad
that he drove himself crazy.
So you want me to know that
you know you were wrong.
And that you can almost admit it.
And you can break down a dense,
twisty movie.
I don't advertise those
as prereqs for the job,
but I do value them.
- Terri prepped you well.
- She did.
Okay, I'll try you out.
But don't think that the FBI
is gonna be your peaceful park bench.
I am having a hard time
seeing what you are seeing.
Perhaps there are real forms
behind the shadows on the cave wall
But you can't take that on blind faith.
It's not that I haven't seen you
turn common metals into gold.
But until I understand the process
You can't take it on blind faith.
I am bad with ignoring data
and with blind faith.
I get it.
If it helps,
Dylan said it first and best:
"he not busy being born"
- "Is busy dying.
"
- Yeah.
So I'm choosing the former.
Are you sure that's what this is?
I'm not ignoring the downside.
But I can't let it override my need.
Axe Capital's need.
I've just learned that
if I can see the downside,
I can avoid it.
My eyes are wide open,
both the ones I got in my head
and the ones I'm paying you for.
Yes.
So prepare to present to
Grigor's guy a strategy
that is not an environmentally
friendly "fuck you.
"
And keep those eyes open.
Big pearls.
If I didn't know any better,
I'd think it was Beluga.
How can it be Beluga
when Beluga is illegal in this country?
Of course.
Next time, I'll fly in some pangolin.
I've arranged for my own exotic
delicacy tonight, as well.
You do recognize the
Secretary of the Treasury?
We've toasted.
So what?
I've raised glasses with movie stars,
presidents, nuclear physicists.
Doesn't mean we're all on
our way to the same orgy.
Sometimes, sure.
But how can I know?
Agreed.
A toast does not mean that
Sorry if you're disappointed
that I wasn't satisfied
with your parlor trick.
Do I look disappointed?
Come on.
I understand you two were
previously acquainted.
From the party on your boat,
in St.
Barth's.
Well, the boat
that follows the first boat.
You should know better than
to go on a Russian's boat.
Grigor showed me where the cameras were,
and then he turned them off.
But at present,
even though we have
enjoyed that time together,
I've been unable to reach you still.
Exactly at the moment
where you might have been able to
provide me with some
extremely useful information.
I could lie to you and tell
you I didn't get the message,
but the truth is: it's by design.
I can't "interact" now.
I have to fly above reproach,
like one of those
American Gladiator
people on the SkyTrack.
Your so-called gladiators
would be slaughtered
by a third grade choir back home.
That's probably true.
But I still can't connect with you.
Yet here you are.
Axe called.
Oh.
So he still has your number.
I would like your number now,
Mr.
Secretary.
Don't put him in a position
to have to refuse you
or to give in to you.
He can't talk to you.
It would compromise him.
It's not a great time
to be backchanneling
with the Russians right now.
You'd own him.
He'd lose the gig.
