But can you just
I'm trying to.
The best I know how.
But I can't promise you anything, Chuck.
[sighs]
Your mother's gonna love this place.
She'll think it too expensive.
Do you?
I wouldn't have offered it
to you if I did.
Besides, the company will pay for it.
As it should.
It's exactly what I needed.
Enough room to pace.
Enough buildings and sky
to induce productive ideation.
And it will convince Mom,
as well, I hope.
I can't wait for her
to be here, too, actually.
Feelings she also holds.
I can't tell you the number of times
she wanted us to come visit.
I just wasn't
It's good you're ready now.
Yeah.
It is.
Reunited and it feels so good.
Dad, did you just quote a pop song?
[chuckles]
I guess it's catching.
I come bearing my war club,
to join with yours.
Who are we bludgeoning?
I'm here to tell you that our interests
are finally 100 percent aligned.
Yeah.
I got that part.
Who?
Chuck Rhoades knows about
my Cayman Islands activity.
We can take him out together.
It's what you've always wanted.
Ah, so that dogged prosecutor
has picked up your scent.
- Not fun, is it?
- No.
Got that river of sweat
running down your crack
like a bombing comedian?
Yes.
Mm.
Will you help me?
Of course, Todd.
You merely had to ask.
Shall we prick our thumbs
and bleed them together
like Tom and Huck?
You know, to become blood brothers?
I feel we already have.
[chuckles]
Jesus, that pizza smells sweet.
Can I get a slice to go?
I'll trade ya a whole pie,
plus solve your Rhoades problems,
for an introduction to a certain
guy who works for your outfit.
Yeah, anybody.
Who?
Robert Beaufort.
"Hard Bob" Beaufort, huh?
He brooks no bullshit.
But sure.
I'll make the intro.
You'll have to take it from there.
Then I'll go get that pizza.
Make it a Sicilian?
I don't have much experience with this.
Picking out furniture?
With setting my parents up in a place.
Getting it furnished.
All of it.
And, yes, I want to use
your eye for style.
You have a great and specific
sense of style yourself.
Thank you.
But they don't
necessarily share my
Ah.
I'm closer in age to them than you are.
Yes, but you're not like them at all.
If they were here,
all they'd notice is what things cost.
Argue about it.
Instead of noticing how these
things might make them feel.
How the clean lines and angles
make for a calm, ideal environment.
Yet you're clear you want them here.
I do.
But it'll be different.
It is.
It's a good thing.
Family.
For you.
But that doesn't mean it'll be easy.
Or should be.
Like when someone
man, woman, whomever has a baby.
It's undoubtedly good,
but it's not cost neutral.
Family creates obligation and stress,
distraction, pain, vulnerability.
I mean, the hope is that the connection,
the shared history,
the love matters more.
Some people use it as a brand
new source of motivation.
They do.
Then I guess I do see it that way.
That's the justification.
We have a new start at a family.
And I really want it to work.
Then I'm sure it will.
And whatever cost will be small
enough to not even matter.
In the grand scheme.
Mr.
Beaufort, come on in.
They call me "Hard Bob,"
and you know why?
I have an idea.
'Cause I brook no bullshit.
Neither do I.
Now the reason I wanted to talk to you
is because I have something
of a special favor.
I only took this meeting because
the Secretary asked me to.
But that doesn't mean
I have to do what you ask
or even listen to your ask.
Got it?
[telephone rings]
Sonny.
[Chuck] Hello, Dad.
Is this the daily "I love you" call?
Son, I have neither time nor inclination
to dicker around with
protestations of emotion.
[Senior] If you need my words
as reassurance of affection
Oh, no, no.
No, sir.
Your feelings are made
manifest with each interaction.
I should hope so.
Now, look.
I have run into a financing
snag with my development.
[Senior] Banks used to be set up
by gentlemen, for gentlemen.
But a couple of Keatings and
Madoffs behave unscrupulously,
and now the personal touch,
the respect, is gone.
Banks have have become
businesses without souls.
I'm pretty sure banks
never had souls, Dad.
