There's no way.

We've already committed $900 billion.

It would be irresponsible if the feds sent more.

And we're not going to ask the government to pony up the cash.

How do you burn through that kind of money in 30 days anyway?

You have something right... right there.

Finally you're seeing my point.

No, no, on your face.

The point is, Phillip, we've already given you our burst of cash on hand.

We can't give you any more.

Well, we'll sell the T-bills to the Chinese, and that money in return will be used as a loan for our company.

Look, the real recovery program is months from being done.

The public is hoarding cash.

The housing market is grinding to a halt.

The big three are on the verge of collapse.

Everyone at the commission needs to see results within the next three weeks before we can do anything else.

Look, rebuilding our database is the only solution to this problem.

This is not my opinion.

These are the facts, ladies and gentlemen.

Now, I've cooperated with you on every level.

I even have the g*dd*mn FBI working out of my offices.

Janet, Mary, Jack, please.

Tell me you didn't ask me to fly down all the way to D.C. just so you could, what, hear yourselves complain?

You've got to resign.

We have no other options.

The President can't go to Congress with a bailout right now.

In the fallout of the Great Depression, FDR closed all the banks for a bank holiday, and then he reopened them in stages when they were reported to being sound.

Later, historians discovered what we in this room now know, that those reports, they were mostly lies.

Nevertheless, it worked.

It worked because the public believed the government had everything under control.

You see, that is the business model for this great nation of ours.

Every business day when that market bell rings, we con people into believing in something, the American dream, family values.

Could be freedom fries for all I care.

It doesn't matter as long as the con works and people buy and sell whatever it is we want them to.

If I resign, then any scrap of confidence the public is already clinging onto will be destroyed, and we all know a con doesn't work without the confidence.

If this was the best idea you could come up with for a win, I shouldn't be the one resigning.

I have to head back to New York.

Let me know when you've locked up the votes, and wipe your g*dd*mn mouth.

Oh, yeah?

Hmm.

I'm Ray.

I've seen you here before.

You must like the games, huh?

They put Bradstreet in.

He's good on the boards.

Come on, boys.

Look at these guys. What do you see?

A lot of care and effort over what amounts to a pretty shitty game.

What's Maxine see?

A bunch of dumb animals, can't think past anything but getting a ball in a hoop.

What do they want you to see?

Badass homies... ready to k*ll if you step to 'em.

Question is... which is the truth?

Maybe all of 'em.

Maybe none of 'em.

Maybe truth don't even exist.

Maybe what we think is all we got, which is why I'm a little jealous of Maxine over here, 'cause all she gives a sh*t about is eating and sleeping.

Ain't that right, girl?

Not the loquacious type, I get it.

Me, I talk all the time, but I guess you picked up on that.

It's cool though. Communication... is good for my line of work.

Takes a lot of it to run a good business.

But unlike you, when it comes to computers, well, I get them about as much as Maxine here gets E. E. Cummings, so when I heard...

Whatever you heard, it's not true.

I don't do that anymore.

Just tell him you'll help.

Try it once, huh?

Let that old feeling come back.

You know, this morning over breakfast my wife told me I'd make a friend today.

Not many people to talk to around here except for these knuckleheads.

It's cool if we continue talking?

No, thanks.

Damn, man.

That's some cold, brutal sh*t right there.

I'ma have to go listen to some Adele on repeat when I get back home.

Okay, I can take a hint.

Come on, babe.

How long you gonna keep us in this analog nightmare?

As long as it takes.

Without my w*apon of choice, Mr. Robot is unplugged, powerless.

He'll try to wear us down, but as long as we stick to the regimen, he can't take control no matter how much of an illusion he thinks this is.

I mean, it's a disgrace, an absolutely disgrace police have not found this guy.

Not only does all the evidence behind the Five/Nine att*cks lead to him, but he is the leading suspect behind the Sharon Knowles m*rder.

I've said it before. I'll say it again.

The misogynistic blind eye by law enforcement in this...

My problem, Stassi.

I hit her for a (BLEEP) reason.

She (BLEEP) my ex-boyfriend...

Hey, "Vanderpump's" on. You want to watch?

Another time.

You know what?

I'll walk away and let this be about you.

How was I that time? Did I do okay?

I didn't hurt you too bad, right?

You're spoiling it again.

At least I didn't break a couple up.

Do you want to go have a drink at the bar?

You know, I know the guy who works here makes awesome mescal cocktails.

We used to bartend together back at this place...

We're not to be seen together, remember?

That was our agreement.

He's also giving us top of the hour and Kelly.

Price doesn't even like Kelly.

I'll budge on the time slot, but I can't on the question. It's fair game.

Talk to the segment producer and call me back.

Angela, I already know the answer.

You were supposed to make this happen five minutes ago...

Just call me back.

Call Markinson.

We don't want CNBC, or Fox News, for that matter.

Need I remind you I was against you taking Colby's job offer in the first place?

And then even when you convinced me that we should wait to see where it would lead, we agreed it was only gonna be for a brief trial basis.

I think we were both clearly wrong about their motives.

Oh, I think you are being naive.

And I don't think that we need to have these talks anymore.

I like my job, and I'm not quitting.

That's my decision.

You never had any intention of leaving, did you?

I know you think they're pulling something, but that's because you can't imagine anyone ever valuing me as a real asset, when the truth is I've done more for you and the lawsuit than you've ever done for me or yourself.

I have value, and even though you don't see it, they do.

They are barbarians in $10,000 suits, but I see your resolve.

A guy walks up to a woman at a bar.

He flirts with her.

He makes small talk, but the woman insists she isn't gonna go home with him.

Guy says, "What if I offer you $1 million to sleep with me?"

The woman's never had a million dollars in her life.

She stops and considers the offer very seriously.

The guy changes his mind, says, "What if I change my offer to a dollar instead?"

Woman is aghast.

"What kind of woman do you think I am?"

This time targeting the Bank of E network in an elaborate ransomware att*ck.

The malicious malware targeted the bank's computer servers and spread to multiple branches in North America, encrypting the data and rendering the systems unusable until a ransom was paid.

This more militant variant of the hacker collective forced Scott Knowles, the CTO of E Corp, to burn $5.9 million in public view.

Shortly thereafter pictures surfaced on social media under the name #OPdailyallowance.

Now, this is considered a direct response to E Corp's unpopular program, which would lower their daily cash withdrawal allowances for customers to $50.
