[wind whistling]

[clicking, ding, scribbling]

Ah.

[With Lions's "Hands Up" plays]

Uh, drop the beat

Uh

Everybody put your hands up,

And we'll do it again

Let me rock your body, ah

I said rock your body, body

And if you're feeling

real nice

Girl, we can light up

the night

Girl, I said

light up the night

Lose your mind and let me

make you say yeah, yeah, yeah

[monitor beeping]

[down-tempo music plays]

[music ends]

[cellphone vibrates]

[heartbeat]

[dramatic music plays]

[door opens]

-Hey.

-Hey.

-Thank you so much, Melissa.

-Yeah.

I know the girls

are gonna miss you a lot.

But I hear you're gonna

have a good time at Wesleyan.

Thank you.

I'll miss them, too.

What is it you're studying

again?

Social sciences.

With everything going on

nowadays,

it feels like the right time

to learn something

that will help make a change.

Well, they're lucky to have you.

As were we.

Oh, uh...here.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, and by the way,

I tried to call

your landlord earlier

'cause the sink was

leaking again.

Uh, don't bother.

I've been trying all month.

I always end up doing it myself.

Uh, I will take care of that,

but you please go

save the world.

And thank you for everything.

Thank you. I will.

Um, I'm just gonna go

put these away,

and I'll lock the door

on my way out.

Yeah. Sounds good.

[down-tempo music plays]

[music ends]

[man]

$100,000. Unreal.

If I had invested all my assets

in crypto

a few short years ago,

I would be a billionaire

at this moment.

Whatever.

Money's not real anyway.

That's the one lesson

we learned, right?

And we're just all following

that little "p" around.

Well, the "p" stands for

"profit."

And if you're smart, you'll put

your money where our mouth is.

We'll be right back.

[up-tempo music plays]

Slowly, Special Agent Drew

crept down the hallway.

Quiet were her footsteps,

as she hoped

her adversary was not aware

of her presence.

But he was.

Daddy, I can't sleep.

I'm sorry, princess.

Come here.

Tell me what's wrong.

Melissa said she's going away

to college.

Will we ever see her again?

Sure.

I mean, she'll have breaks

and summer vacation.

I miss Mommy.

I know, sweetie.

I do, too.

Can I just stay here

with you tonight?

Pretty please?

Of course you can.

Up.

[down-tempo music plays]

[dramatic music plays]

[Nia]

Will you come on?

You didn't say

it was this high.

[laughs] It is not.

Just hurry your a*s up.

Pack is heavy. My feet hurt.

Come on, LeBron.

You're carrying me back down,

I swear.

[chuckles] I got you.

[serene music plays]

Whoa.

You see? Told you.

Come here. Picture time.

[chuckles]

More like this.

-[camera shutter clicks]

-Okay, I take it back.

[laughs] Okay.

[James]

Man, this really is beautiful.

Can you believe it?

Look how high up we are.

I know.

It's so incredible.

What do you think about

moving up here someday?

-What, to the mountain?

-No, silly.

Maine.

-Get an old farmhouse.

-Mm.

Raise a couple kids.

We'll have a simple life.

Kids?

[laughs]

[music continues]

Wake up, Daddy!

Wake up!

Daddy! Pancakes!

[groans] Pancakes?

I thought we were doing

oatmeal today.

No, Daddy, you promised!

Drew, we're having pancakes,

just like Dad promised.

Yay!

[upbeat music plays]

[chuckles]

Well, that's it. You done?

I'm going to explode!

Why'd you eat three, then?

'Cause they were delicious.

Mmm!

Well, we have a few hours

until I have to be back at work.

So how about

we do something fun today?

What do you say, Imani?

Obviously, we have to

clean up first,

but then I think

the museums open up today.

Well, actually,

Dad has a friend at work

who hooked me up,

'cause I'm cool like that,

and I...

have a better idea.

Awesome!

Yo, James! What's up, man?

Oh, uh, Bryson.

Hey, what's up, man?

What's going on?

This must be the girls.

Yeah. Drew, Imani, say hi.

-[Drew] Boom!

-What's going on?

-[Drew] Nice to meet you.

-Hi. Let's go.

All right.

Just hold on a second.

Don't go too far.

Listen, you should come with me.

I got front-row tickets.

Yeah.

No, we really shouldn't, man.

Ah, I mean, it's me and

a couple girls from the office.

Daddy! Front-row seats?

And there are

sponsorship tickets.

It's pretty cool, right?

Yeah, we actually

really shouldn't impose,

sweetie, but thank you.

Imani.

James, you're single.

I'm single.

All these girls are single.

You know, the concert's

gonna suck, man.

But let's have a little fun,

right?

Daddy!

Dad! Come on.

The show's gonna start.

Okay.

Uh, sorry, Bryson,

but just enjoy the show

and I'll see you Monday night?

All right?

-Okay.

-[Drew] Who was that?

Uh, just a guy

I played ball with.

[Drew] Is he rich?

Well, I mean, he's got money,

but I'm richer.

[siren wailing in distance]

Gotta stop meeting like this.

That might be a little hard

around here.

-[laughs]

-James.

Can I speak to you for a moment?

Uh, sure.

Can I just finish up here?

Hmm.

James, it says here

you were late last week?

Uh, yeah, I had an issue

finding a babysitter.

Right. And you were late

several times this week.

[James]

I was only late once.

Teenage girls -- they're

not always the most reliable.

Mm-hmm.

And you've been leaving early.

A couple times at most

but I cleared that with you.

James...

we need to have

team players here,

people who are reliable.

-I'm reliable.

-Please let me finish.

We're going to have to put you

on a PIP.

-A PIP?

-Performance improvement plan.

I know what it is, but what

does that mean, exactly?

It means you need to be here

on time.

It means you need to stay

your full shift.

And what if it's unavoidable?

I mean, I have two girls

at home. I...

-I'm not here to argue with you.

-I'm not arguing.

If you can't be here,

actions will have to be taken.

You may go.

[down-tempo music plays]

[up-tempo music plays]

[Bryson]

Here we go, here we go!

Got him!

Move! Man.

Get open! What are you...

Come on, man!

[man]

I'm going, I'm going.

What's that? 18-8?

Yeah, easy, pal.

[laughs] That was good.

[Bryson] What is this?

f*cking happy hour?

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!"

Are we playing basketball

or what?

Yeah?

Check the ball.

Watch the switch!

Hey, watch the pick!

Watch the pick!

Got him! I got him!

[grunts]

[players groan]

-It's our ball.

-[man] What do you mean?

It's our ball. It's our ball.

-You clearly --

-It's our ball. That's defense.

[man] Who the hell taught you

defense?

-Taught me what?

-This isn't f*cking football.

This isn't what?

Who taught me what?

-Defense.

-Who taught me what?

-All right.

-Who the f*ck are you?

No, no, no.

I want to know who this guy is.

-No, you --

-Who the f*ck are you?

-Bryson. Bryson.

-Huh? Who brought him?

-[James] Over here.

-You bring him?

You probably did

f*cking bring him.

f*cking clown.

Come on, man! Come on!

f*ck, man!

I'm outta here, dude!

Yo.

There it is.

Good game, player.

Just got back.

Already betting on the game.

[chuckles] Come on. Always, man.

What the hell is this?

It was just a pickup game.

[Bryson]

It's not just a game, man.

You either win or you lose,

right?

Oh, you play by the rules,

right?

f*ck the rules, man.

I play to win.

Takes money to make money.

Why are you so competitive

over every little thing?

How do you think I got to

where I am?

You know, the house,

the cars, the girls.

It's because I'm f*cking

competitive, man.

Seriously, what do you got?

-Two girls to raise.

-[Bryson laughs]

Exactly my point.

Get out of that shitty job, man.

There's a f*ck-ton of money

to be made out there

if you only could take a chance.

-And do what, Bryson?

-[Bryson] I don't know.

Do finance, do the market,

but literally do anything other

than what you're doing.

Wait. Finance?

I thought you were a CEO.

I am a CEO, but that's not

how I made all my money.

All right, listen, I was smart

enough to write up a pitch deck.

I hired some f*cking nerds

from MIT,

and f*cking boom, dude.

So how exactly does

your company make money?

My company make money?

Listen, it's all based

on subscriber growth, right?

Okay, so when that base grows...

bingo.

Look, at Goldman,

I mean, they're estimating

the value at $4 billion

once the IPO pops.

$4 billion.

-[James] Okay.

-$4 billion, Chuck.

But how does it make money?

You're talking about profits,

right?

Profits. Listen,

let me tell you something.

Nobody gives a sh*t

about profits.

All right? Half the time,

the f*cking investors,

they don't even li--

they don't --

they don't read the prospectus.

Literally.

But what they do do is

they invest in a concept.

And I'm the f*cking concept,

man.

[chuckles]

Don't show up next week,

all right?

He's such a d*ck.

[scoffs]

Hey, Maria. It's James.

Uh, James Williams

We met a few years ago

about that big blue house

outside Millinocket.

Yeah, that's the one.

My wife really wanted that.

Um, I saw that it's back

on the market.

I wanted to look back into it.

That much more?

No, I'm not really interested

in any other options.

Let me just...

I'll get back to you.

[Drew]

I was supposed to have the edge

for the last, like, three times.

-[Imani] You're such a liar.

-Knock on the door, please.

Hey!

Uh! [laughs] Hey, baby.

What's up, my boo?

Ah! [laughs]

-Good to see you.

-You, too.

All right.

I'll see you both later, okay?

-Bye.

-Hey, Juju.

What's up? Thank you.

I tried to get a babysitter,

but on such short notice...

It's fine.

I had Zoom meetings all day,

so it's nice to have

some real company.

You know, it's time you start

thinking about getting the girls

a little motherly influence

and attention.

Well, if that's a hint

at another one

of your sorority sisters,

I'm good.

[chuckles] Okay, fine.

What are you gonna do

when Imani starts

her first period?

-'Cause it's coming.

-I'm a medical professional.

I can figure it out.

Or I can just call you.

-Mm-hmm.

-You're probably right.

I'm just not really ready,

you know?

I understand.

You been able to see Mom?

Uh, yeah.

I mean, I tried a few times.

She's always asleep.

-How's she look?

-Like Mom.

Just like you would expect.

Well, I will be back

to get them at 8:30.

-Is that okay?

-It's fine.

-Where you going, anyway?

-Class.

-Right. Economics or something?

-Finance.

What does it have to do

with health care?

Absolutely nothing.

That's the point.

You're a little young to be

going through a midlife crisis.

That's what I'm trying to avoid.

Now, look, I don't want to be

late, but you got this.

Bye! Don't fail! Love you!

[down-tempo music plays]

[music ends]

[cartoon sound effects

playing]

Welcome to Finance 101.

My name is Professor Gardner.

Finance is the simplest subject

you'll ever learn.

It's all based on one formula --

the value of a dollar

paid annually.

If you want to buy $1 annually,

it will cost you $152.

Is anybody here willing

to give me $152

if I give you $1 every year

for the rest of your life?

Hell, no, because we'd all be

dead before we broke even.

Right. [chuckles]

What would happen to the value

of that $1 paid annually

if the interest rate was

to go negative?

All assets are worth infinite.

My coffee is worth infinite.

My desk is worth infinite.

My whiteboard is worth infinite.

Does this make sense?

Do you see

why the rich have all the money?

Their stocks are trading

at infinite.

In capitalism,

interest rates represent risk.

What would happen to the value

of that dollar paid annually

if it rose from

the current rate, 0.66%,

back to 10%.

Yes? And you are?

Aimee.

The value would go back to $10.

Correct!

And short-term interest rates

did rise to 10% in 2019,

until the Fed stepped in

and bought every single bond.

-They bought all the bonds?

-[Gardner] They had to,

otherwise the stock market

would crash.

But here's the problem.

Capitalism requires risk

in order to allocate

scarce resources.

What would happen if

we remove risk

from capitalism?

Let me give you an example.

What would happen

to the ecosystem in the savannah

if we slaughtered

every single lion?

The gazelle population

would explode.

But they would be fighting

over scarce water and resources.

-They would die out.

-[Gardner] Bingo.

And when the Fed intervened

in the bond markets,

they broke the ecosystem

of capitalism.

Hey.

Aimee, right?

Yeah. James, right?

Yeah.

So did you retain any of that?

I don't know. Maybe.

He seems like he knows

what he's talking about.

Give it time.

-I sanitized it.

-Keep it.

Well, I'll see you next class,

Aimee.

Have a good night.

[down-tempo music plays]

You okay?

I just lost the girl from 204.

It's bad enough that

COVID is taking so many lives.

The last thing I wanted was

to deal with another overdose.

Are you okay?

She's about the same age as Nia.

Do you ever think

of finding another job

that's not such a daily trigger?

I don't really know where else

I can make what I make.

Between my girls

and the bills,

paying rent

just to line of pockets

of some as*h*le.

Hey, a bunch of us are supposed

to go to the bar tonight.

You want to come?

Uh, I can't tonight.

Okay.

[baby cooing]

[James]

Aw, she has your eyes

and your nose.

And your ears, too.

Ooh! That was my yawn.

She had the jaws inside

and everything.

You're stupid.

Hopefully that's all

she gets from you.

[James]

Mm. You're not that lucky.

Imani is already like you.

This baby is going to be nice.

What? I'm nice.

Don't you listen to her.

Little Drew.

You're both so far away.

[James]

Wanna go see Mommy, hmm?

Oh, you are definitely

going to see Mommy.

I got her. There.

[James] Mm.

You ready for round two?

[chuckles] We're here.

I am so proud of you.

And I love you both so much.

[music continues]

[music ends]

$2,000.

[coughs] Call.

No, thank you.

[women laughing in background]

Check.

All in.

I call.

Yes! Oh, my God.

Full f*cking house!

'Bout f*cking time!

Nice hand, Bryson,

but I got the nuts.

f*ck, man! f*ck!

f*ck!

[man] Bad beat, man.

Yo, good game though.

Good game?

This sh*t isn't over.

Dude, you just dropped

like $100,000.

Listen, dipshit,

do you have any idea

how much I'm gonna be worth

once that IPO goes through?

No. Do you? Do you?

All right, a f*ck-ton more

than f*cking 100 grand,

I'll tell you that.

Listen, deal me back in.

You know what?

Make yourself useful

and get me a drink.

You, with the stupid

f*cking haircut,

get me a f*cking drink!

There you go.

There it is.

[girls laughing]

-Hey, Juju.

-Wow!

Looks like you guys had

quite the time.

Daddy, we made cookies!

Mostly Auntie Chrissy made them,

but we helped.

Oh, Auntie Chrissy

made cookies, huh?

-I am amazing.

-We made cookies.

I'm sorry.

You all made cookies.

And really big ones, actually.

The girls were a huge help.

They did a great job.

I did not know you were

such a fun aunt.

Don't be a hater.

Have a cookie.

Hey, but seriously, thank you

for looking after the girls.

It's fine.

But it can't be all the time,

you know?

Yeah, I know.

Yoga, book club.

Boy, I have a job.

I might work remotely,

but I still have to work.

Hmm.

You still chasing

that house up in Maine?

-Christine.

-You are spending money

that could be used to buy

a nice home right here

that you could actually afford.

Yeah, but I don't want

a nice home.

I want that home. I want

the home that Nia wanted.

Why are you holding on to that?

The girls are not gonna care

if it's the exact same house.

She had a plan, okay?

She promised them a life.

And I want to give them

that life.

And I want to give it to them

the way she planned it.

Okay.

You have flour all over you.

Daddy, can we spend

the night at Auntie Chrissy's?

Well, did you ask

Auntie Chrissy?

Auntie Chrissy,

can we spend the night?

Like I'm gonna say no.

Sure.

-Yes!

-[Christine laughs]

Don't make this a habit.

[pop music plays]

[James]

Seriously, though, I-I-I...

she was going off on this

dude, so I stepped out.

I backed up. I was way too new

to be dealing with all that.

No, Coughlin pissed me

the hell off.

No, I told him straight

to his face

that if he wanted me

to work another double,

he should have told me 15 hours

before I clocked in.

Yeah, but at least you nurses

got job security, you know?

Yeah, we have job security,

but we don't have

enough ventilators.

They're basically paying us

to watch people die.

Yep.

See, this is what I was

trying to tell you

in the break room.

You're cut off.

Just keep this over here.

You're good. You're okay.

Um, I actually

have to get going.

The girls got school

in the morning, so, you know.

-Okay.

-Mm!

Well, tell the girls I said hi,

and that I miss them.

-I will. Peace.

-Bye.

Oh, you're so gone.

[indistinct conversations]

Professor Gardner?

Mm. Oh, um...

-James.

-James! That's right.

-How you doing? Come on.

-Oh, no.

Actually, I gotta get going.

Come on. Let's just have one.

Just one.

Come on.

Yeah, all right.

Yeah. Just one. Just one.

What you drinking?

-[woman] Let me watch this.

-[Bryson] Yeah? Uh-oh.

-[woman laughs]

-[Bryson] Oh, God.

-So you invented TAPiT, right?

-Yeah.

How does the algorithm know

that since I like

wildlife videos,

that it should send me

videos of animals on safari?

Hey, listen.

No questions tonight.

It's magic.

Just think it's magic.

-Golly.

-[woman #2] Magic?

How you doing?

-I'm great.

-Yeah?

-How are you?

-Good.

I'm doing actually

extremely well.

Extremely well right now.

You know?

You mind holding that?

-Sure.

-I got something for us.

-Oh, yeah?

-Yeah.

Just to kind of spice it up

a little bit.

-Oh.

-Huh?

-You're a bad boy.

-Sure. And maybe we can --

Uh-oh. Oh, my God.

-How you doing?

-Good. How are you?

Good.

Excuse me a second.

Easy, easy.

[hip-hop music plays]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Living dangerous!

[snorts]

[grunts]

Let's make a TAPiT video.

So why did you leave

Wall Street

to teach community college?

[chuckles]

[sighs]

Because the system is

a game now, James.

Success in this current system

requires speculation.

And I will not speculate

with other people's money.

I'm not even sure

if I know what that means.

Okay, look, the Fed are supposed

to be like

referees in a football game.

Nobody's supposed

to notice them.

But now they tilted

the field 90 degrees

and broke the scoreboard.

Okay, that makes sense to me.

So things are

a little upside down?

Exactly.

When was the last time

in history

unemployment hit 33%

and the stocks go up?

It's pretty obvious

what's driving all this.

What's that?

A flood of easy money

from the Fed.

Oh, sh*t. It's almost...

So -- So what are you trying

to get out of my class?

I...

I need a better way

to make money.

I gotta get out of health care.

It's k*lling me.

You could say I'm...

trying to navigate the field.

Well, we're in a very

financialized economy.

[chuckles]

Stocks, bonds, and cash

are all massive bubbles,

but commodities

are at a 120-year low if you

really want to make some money.

-Commodities?

-Yeah.

Buy ag stocks, uh, gold,

uh, silver miners, land,

real estate,

or even just timber.

Listen, um, I really

do need to get going, but...

Ah, ah. I got this.

Thanks.

So real estate?

Yeah. Real estate, land.

Just real things.

Just buy real assets.

Oh, by the way, I'm gonna be

assigning group projects.

And I'm thinking about pairing

you up with Aimee.

Okay.

Well, I'll, uh...

I'll see you in class.

-Cheers.

-[CHAMIE's "Attitude" plays]

When I walk

into the room

It's like this sick beat

drops

My body starts to move,

yeah, I feel on top

Everybody's looking

and they're looking at me

Na na na na na na na na na

I wanna show it off,

I wanna show it off

I wanna show it off

Off, off, off

With my attitude

Attitude

[music continues]

[bang, music stops]

Mr. Williams,

$450,000 is quite a jump

from the loan

we originally discussed.

I almost have enough

for the original loan.

I have a really great

relationship with this bank.

I financed my car

through you guys.

Is there any way

that you can somehow accept

that amount for this loan

instead?

With a higher interest rate,

maybe?

James, I don't make the rules,

but we're gonna need

at least 10% down

for you to secure a mortgage.

45K.

Yes. Depending on

the final price, yes.

[sighs]

Okay. Thank you.

So we're scheduled

to launch the IPO next month.

-Fantastic.

-And just to remind you,

there is a 90-day

lockup period for you

and the other key executives.

Absolutely. Look, there's gonna

be no problem on our end.

-All right?

-Perfect.

I have all the paperwork

and can take it from here.

You're going to be very happy

and well-capitalized

for the next future launch,

that's for sure.

Well, thank you,

thank you, thank you, thank you.

This is gonna be great.

[chuckles] Yeah.

Listen, on your way out,

don't be afraid

to get to know Amber, you know,

if you know what I mean.

-I think I'm good.

-Yeah. All right.

[door closes]

I'm gonna be so f*cking rich.

[down-tempo music plays]

Hi. I'm returning a call

for Shanice Williams.

Her son, yes.

Oh, really?

Uh, no. She -- She called me

a couple hours ago.

I thought maybe she...

No, no. If she's sleeping,

please let her.

Um, I'll try again tomorrow.

Thank you. Bye.

You're really well organized.

[chuckles]

I try my best.

You should give yourself

some credit, though.

You came up with some

pretty good ideas tonight.

You're smarter than I thought.

[cellphone vibrates]

I should probably head home,

actually.

Um, yeah, a-actually,

I got something I gotta go do.

But, uh, let me give you a ride.

It's okay, I just --

I live across the park, so...

Oh, well, then you know what?

Let me get my jacket.

I'll just --

I'll walk you real quick.

I saw some cute little

crayon drawings on your fridge.

Now, I don't know, but I just

don't sense an artist in you.

[chuckles]

Nah, you got me.

Um, that would be my girls.

-Girls?

-Yeah. Two beautiful daughters.

Tall little things.

There's Drew. She's 7.

Definitely the better artist

of us all.

And Imani -- well, she's 11,

but she acts 29.

And I'm not really sure who's

raising who at this point.

And their mother?

Nope. Just us.

Hey, uh, do you mind

if we stop here for a sec?

[down-tempo music plays]

This is the place I come to

to disconnect from the world.

When I'm down,

this place lifts me back up.

Beautiful spot.

James?

We used to come here.

A lot.

Your daughters' mother?

My wife. Nia.

She died three years ago.

I haven't been back here since.

It was my dad

that used to bring me up here.

We used to grab ice cream

and...

we'd talk for hours.

When he --

When he passed, I...

I couldn't come here.

And then the others left,

and I was alone.

[cellphone rings]

Sorry. This is my sister.

sh*t! Is that what time it is?

Hey, Christine.

I'm sorry.

Jesus, James, where are you?

It's almost 9:00.

Yeah, I know, I know.

I got a little held up.

I'm just walking

my friend Aimee home.

You're messing around

with some girl?

It's not like that.

Boy, I'm also trying

to have a life.

You need to get yourself

together.

You could have called me.

I know. Look, um...

I'll just -- I'll be over there

in 20 minutes, okay?

Have a good night, James.

[Christine]

Unh-unh, don't even bother.

I'll get the girls ready for

school. You be here by 7:00.

[James]

You don't have to do that.

Mnh-mnh.

[Bryson] Yeah. Okay.

Well, get a load of this.

So I've been waiting for,

let's say, an hour,

hour 45 f*cking minutes.

And, you know,

I don't think you realize

how important my time is.

Okay, so I'm gonna be short

and sweet with you here.

I don't care about any of

the local ordinances, all right?

I just don't.

Do you have any idea --

any idea how much money

I've spent on this place?

[woman] I understand, Mr. Hill,

but the budget for your house

is not my concern.

What is my concern is your lack

of respect for your neighbors.

Oh, my lack of respect, huh?

f*ck that.

My lack of respect?

Listen, I don't care.

I repeat -- I don't care

whose view gets obstructed

by my waterfall!

I'll build a bigger waterfall.

Maybe I'll put a f*cking volcano

next to the waterfall!

Okay? I don't care!

It's my f*cking money!

It's my f*cking money!

It's my f*cking palace!

f*cking sue me!

And give me a f*cking break,

dude!

Give me a f*cking break, man!

Hey! We need maintenance

in there

to fix my f*cking face,

please, ASAP!

Jesus.

I'm getting a f*cking waterfall!

[James] Professor.

Hey, missed my class last night.

Yeah, I know.

That's actually what

I wanted to talk to you about.

Work's kind of

running me ragged.

It's taking up all my time.

I don't think I'm gonna be able

to make it to classes

on Tuesdays.

I hate to hear that,

especially 'cause the course

is only twice a week.

Yeah, I know, I know.

I just...

I was hoping maybe I could just

get the assignments

ahead of time,

maybe even do it remotely?

You're a good guy, James.

We'll find a way

to make it work.

This guy cracks me up.

[chuckles]

How so?

Oh, he's always going on

and on and on

about things after the fact,

of course.

"This op is doing great.

It's down. It's a catastrophe.

Aah!"

Yeah, I notice he likes

the sound of his own voice.

What do they do?

Mostly concerts and some, um,

sports events.

Revenues are down 95%.

-Well, that makes sense.

-What does?

Well, with the pandemic,

the revenues being down.

That's not the point.

Their stock's

at an all-time high.

What?

No, that doesn't make sense.

How could the rise

of their stocks

be independent

from their revenue?

Because the market don't make

any f*cking sense anymore.

By controlling interest rates,

removing risk,

the Fed changed the ecosystem

of capitalism.

No one picks their own stocks

anymore.

The lions have been eaten.

It's just a bunch of followers

following followers.

It's like a cat chasing

its tail.

You ever think

of starting a podcast?

[Gardner] Why the hell would

I want to do that?

Well, I mean,

how many of your students

do you think are actually

paying attention to you?

And you think a podcast

would make it better?

Well, I mean,

podcasts are specific.

People's tastes are selective.

So you're only gonna get

people

that are really interested

and actually want to listen to

what you have to say,

which is a lot.

-Hmm.

-Think about it.

Cheers.

Daddy says we're going up

to Maine this weekend.

No, I -- maybe.

-[Imani] I can't.

-Why not?

-I have soccer.

-Not all day long.

Dad, what if this is a bad idea?

Bad id-- what's a bad idea?

Auntie Chrissy says you

shouldn't spend all our money

on a house in Maine.

She says it won't work.

Your dad is gonna

make sure it works.

I promise. Okay?

I miss Mom.

I know, sweetie.

I do, too.

Do you think she's

watching us in heaven?

I know she is.

And I know she is

extremely proud

of how strong you

and your sister have become.

Mom loved Maine, didn't she?

She really, really did.

That's why you want us

to move there.

I just want us to have

the perfect life.

Just like she promised.

I love you, Dad.

I love you, too.

And make sure you carry

the two on that.

I know, Dad.

[James] This was my favorite

mom-and-pop joint.

What happened?

[Aimee] Yeah, all the family

businesses got hit hard.

But the big guys,

the corporate chains,

their lights are still on.

Yeah, well, what now, though?

Uh, takeout?

So, what did you eat

growing up, then?

Well, just not vegetables.

Or at least I tried not to.

Oh, uh, let me.

I come here all the time.

Okay.

[cellphone rings]

Hello?

Hey, sleepyhead.

How you feeling?

Oh, you sound good.

Yeah. I'm good, I'm good.

The girls are good.

They miss you.

Hey, you sound tired.

Okay.

Well, I'm gonna let you go ahead

and get some sleep then.

You make sure you do

what they tell you to.

I will.

I love you, too, Mom.

[down-tempo music plays]

[Bryson]

Come on. Look at --

Investors see the value

that we bring.

Investors see the value

that I bring.

And, I mean, we're

anticipated right now to --

to grow beyond

what we currently have.

Okay, well, that's good news,

but value is one thing

and profitability is another.

-Talk to me about profitability.

-Mike...

we are anticipated to have a

solid profit margin over the...

Oh, that was quick.

How much was it?

I got it.

Don't worry about it.

-Well, no, I want to.

-I said I got it.

Well, at least let me carry it.

[cellphone vibrates]

Dude, why do you keep

f*cking calling me, man?

No, we are bleeding cash, man!

We are literally bleeding cash!

Tell them to wait

till the f*cking IPO!

I don't have f*cking time

for this sh*t.

[sighs]

Oh, okay.

[toilet flushes]

No, no, dude!

Get the f*ck out of here, dude!

Get the f*ck out of here!

Go ahead.

You're gonna like it.

See? Told you.

I saw Gardner yesterday.

You did? Where?

At the bar.

I told him he should

start a podcast.

Oh, I could definitely see that.

Hey, what do you think about

a little post-lunch exercise?

Right after eating?

Shouldn't we start

our project first?

Don't worry. I won't take me

long to beat you.

Beat me at what?

-2-nothing.

-Wait. 2?

Yeah, 2. Just 'cause you

weren't ready for the first one,

that's no excuse.

Oh, okay. Come here.

Hey.

Just 'cause you weren't ready.

I guess it's 2-1.

How do you like me now?

Why didn't you tell me

that you played ball?

You never asked.

You ever think of playing

in college?

[chuckles] Uh, I might have been

able to play D3,

but my parents really wanted

me to go to an Ivy,

'cause that's how you get rich,

or marry rich, I guess.

Really? Well, you know,

the community college

isn't exactly an Ivy.

No. It's not.

You're not exactly rich.

[chuckles]

No. I'm not.

Well, what happened?

My father got sick,

so I needed to get a job

and help out with rent.

Can't exactly go to an Ivy

and have a full-time job.

So I recently got a position

as an executive assistant.

I don't love that either,

but I made it possible

to take classes

at the community college, so...

Speaking of, we should

actually probably get going.

I'm gonna have to shower

after this, so...

Oh, wait, wait, wait.

Uh, what do I get

for owning you on the court?

[laughs]

I would not say "owned," okay?

Yeah, you caught me off guard

today, and that's all right.

-But I'll show you.

-Excuses.

From the fragile male ego.

Oh, whatever.

Anyway, what do you, um...

what do you want?

[down-tempo music plays]

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I guess you can owe me.

"The Efficient Market Theory."

Smart people thought the world

was flat once, too.

[laughs] Oh!

Oh, "Death by Money."

The story of the great

German inflation.

Some of the most underused books

in finance

are history books.

This was the primary factor

that led to the rise of Hitler.

When Germany lost World w*r I,

they had to start printing money

to pay debt.

What happens

when there's inflation?

Uh, everyday people struggle

to get food on the table.

Correct.

And what about the rich?

-It's better for them, right?

-Right. But why?

Because they own

all the businesses.

Exactly. And Hitler used

that resentment to gain power.

von Havenstein, the head

of the German Central Bank

during the Weimer Republic

was faced with a real dilemma.

Print the money

or trigger a revolution.

It took the U.S. 100 years

for their money supply

to reach $15 trillion,

and only one year

to go to $21 trillion.

-Whoa.

-Hmm?

Germany had an enormous debt.

Guess who has

the biggest debt now?

[whistles]

[Bryson] How was I supposed

to know that,

what was gonna interfere

with the PETA campaign?

Tell them to f*cking relax.

I don't know what

you want me to do.

Seriously.

[sighs and groans]

-You good?

-Mm.

Uh, yeah. Yeah.

James, uh, before you leave,

I've been wanting

to ask you something.

Would you work for me?

Yeah. Yeah.

-At TAPiT?

-Yes. Yes.

I want you to be

my right-hand man,

my eyes and ears, everything.

I'll take care of you.

Your girls will be

taken care of.

I-I trust you, and --

and I want to offer it to you.

I could use you.

[dramatic music plays]

Uh, sorry, man, I don't --

I don't think

that lifestyle would be

good for me,

or my girls.

What, a-a better life?

What lifestyle

you talking about?

I don't really

get the appeal, man.

You know, I remember...

you used to care.

I mean, you used to have

a lot better things to say,

talk about.

Now it's all...

parties, status.

I just think you could have

a lot more in life, man.

I'll see you next week.

[music continues]

[birds chirping]

[sighs]

What do you think, girls?

It's awesome!

[Imani]

Yeah, it's kinda cool.

[James]

Well, let's check it out.

[Maria]

James, hello! Hi, girls.

So nice to see you again

after all of these years,

and in person too.

Good to see you, too, Maria.

So, what do you think?

The barn still needs

a lot of work,

but that's to be expected.

And I know this isn't

what you had originally wanted,

but it is a bit closer

to your price range.

Definitely gonna need

some work.

Yeah.

With the pandemic and all,

you know,

things didn't really go to plan.

But there's always

a bright side.

Look at this.

Turns out the property line

extends a lot further

than we thought,

and it's attached

to a small amount of timber.

If you need a little more time

to think about it

but don't want to lose this,

we can do a small deposit

to hold the property

if you'd like.

And just know there are

other interests for this one,

so if you want it,

you'll have to move soon.

Let me just show you around

a little more inside.

They actually renovated

the kitchen.

The backyard has a swing set.

That might be something

the girls might like.

-Uh, masks on, girls.

-[cellphone rings]

Sorry, I have to take this.

Hey, Christine. What's up?

[Christine]

Mom died. M-Mom's gone.

Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Slow down.

I'm not understanding.

-[Christine] Mom died.

-What?

[Christine]

She's gone. Mom died.

[dramatic music plays]

I don't know how to do this

without you, Nia.

Not everything is yours

to carry, James.

You are.

I'll always be with you.

Watching over you

and the girls.

[music continues]

My condolences.

[music continues]

When's the last time

you visited Mom?

-I spoke to her not long ago.

-No, in person, James.

When's the last time

you went and held her hand?

Don't say that.

You know I've been busy.

I know you've had time

to go on dates.

I know you've had time

to go to Maine.

That is not fair.

How could I have known?

How could you even consider

moving to Maine, really?

-That was always the plan.

-That was Nia's plan.

-It was her dream.

-Our plan.

And we're gonna do it.

And you -- you need to stop

telling my girls

that it's not gonna work.

Well, it won't work.

There is nothing up there

for them.

They lost their mom, and now

they just lost their grandma.

I have no idea why

you're doing this right now.

There is no family up there

for them.

They'll have no one.

-Christine.

-What?

-Why are you being like this?

-Being like what?

Being completely negative

and unsupportive.

I don't understand

how you can just gamble

with you and your daughters'

futures.

-It is not a gamble.

-Don't you see

you're taking them away from

the only family they have left?

-What are you talking about?

-Listen, James.

I am the one

that has helped you

take care of those girls

for the past three years.

Yes, and I have been

completely appreciative of that.

You don't get it.

They lost their mom.

[crying]

I just lost my mom.

You three are the only family

I have left.

You're all I have.

[music continues]

Look...

it's not like

we're leaving the country.

I mean, it's only

a four-hour drive.

"Only"?

I may be moving,

I'm never gonna abandon you.

I'm gonna miss you guys.

[music continues]

You know...

maybe it's time you started

thinking about

starting a family on your own.

[music continues]

[chuckles]

I'm gonna go check on the girls.

You gonna be okay?

Yeah.

Hey.

Are you gonna be okay?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

[music continues]

[sniffles]

[exciting music plays]

Yo, it's time to talk

Yo, it's time to talk

Yo, it's time to talk,

yo, it's time to talk

Yo, it's time to talk

Move!

Get the f*ck out of here, man.

Come on.

[music continues]

as*h*le!

The f*ck is your problem, man?

You're my f*cking problem.

-I ain't gonna fight you, bro.

-You ain't gonna fight me?

All right, so what?

What are you gonna be?

Just a whiny little b*tch?

No, I get it. [claps]

Yo, I'm f*cking talking to you!

Listen, do your girls know what

kind of b*tch their father is?

Or is it just us?

I'm outta here.

Ah, all right. You know what,

maybe it is better

that your wife's gone,

because then she doesn't have

to know what kind of a p*ssy

her f*cking husband is.

-Whoa!

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Go ahead.

Let me show you a b*tch,

Bryson.

Let me show you a p*ssy.

You are so f*cking pathetic.

You know,

you're the only person I know

that has to pay people

to like 'em.

Even these dudes

protecting you from me --

they don't even like you.

Sit around all day talking about

your business and your money,

'cause that is all you got.

You ain't even worth it, man.

[Bryson] Not worth it?

-Yo, man, f*ck you, dude.

-f*cking work?

Ugh!

What's your f*cking problem?

Come on.

You did that to yourself.

You all saw that, right?

[Bryson moaning]

It was between you guys.

I see how it is.

[Bryson] Ugh!

[dramatic music plays]

You're f*cking dead, James!

No, I won't be moving

right away.

I need to make sure we'll be

able to stay afloat up there

until I find a job.

Yeah. No, actually, I can't

get out of here fast enough.

Thank you, Maria.

I'll talk to you soon.

Bye.

[knock on door]

-Hey. What's up?

-Hey.

We were supposed to work

on the project, remember?

Ah, I'm sorry.

I got distracted.

Is everything okay?

Look, I know you have

a lot going on with work

and finding a house.

It's just...

it's my grade on the line, too.

No, I know, I know.

It's just...

Do you think we could

pick it up in a couple days?

We have so much to do.

I...kind of also thought

we could hang out to--

I know. We'll get it done,

I just...

It's just not really

a good time right now.

It's not a good time.

I need more than that, James.

You know, I took today off

so that we could work on this.

Aimee, I just -- I have a lot

that I gotta handle right now.

I have a lot going on, too,

but I drop it when I need to.

I-I just can't. I can't.

I can't do the stress right now.

I just -- I can't.

I didn't know

that's what I was.

I thought that we were just

getting together...

Aimee! I have a job, okay?

I have a blood-sucking job.

I have two little girls

that I need to look after,

and I'm trying to move them

to a house in Maine

that I cannot afford.

I mean, I just got kicked out

of my league, and my...

I know you only have you

that you gotta look out for,

but I actually have a lot

that depends on me.

And I just can't do this

right now, okay?

I can't.

Okay.

[down-tempo music plays]

Guys, the CEO is on his way down

with a VIP.

Let's, uh, get everything

tidied up.

[chuckles] Right away.

I mean it.

This is important.

Apparently, this guy

is giving us a huge donation.

Maybe we'll all get raises.

[chuckles]

Did I miss something, James?

No, just...

just an inside joke.

Now is not the time.

Got it?

[cellphone vibrates]

-We're on it.

-They're here.

Why do I get the feeling

that he's the one

expecting the raise?

All right, if you'll, uh --

if you follow me this way.

This is our critical-care unit.

Uh, as you can see,

it is equipped

with medical technology

on the brink of innovation.

What?

I'm gonna go check on 209.

You got this?

Sure, but what's up?

Ah!

I just want to personally

thank you for the gift.

[chuckles] Yeah, listen,

no problem, man.

I-I'm just happy

to be able to help.

Again, thanks.

It means so much to --

to myself and our staff, uh,

not to mention our patients.

Right. Could you actually

tell me about your staff?

Sure. They're great.

Uh, we get dozens

of positive comments

from patients and families

every day.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, but how's turnover?

I know I have a hell of a time

trying to find the right people.

[chuckles]

Uh...

Not bad at all.

Well, you know,

I actually find it helpful

to have a little bit

of turnover.

I call it, uh, you know,

continuous improvement,

if you will, right?

Thin the herd a little,

make room for some new blood.

[chuckles]

Uh, I'm not sure

I can justify losing an employee

in these, uh, chaotic times.

[chuckles]

Well, it's because of

these times

that you're gonna want

to find the right employee.

[chuckles nervously]

Hmm.

[down-tempo music plays]

[computer beeps]

And that's it.

Um, you just hit record

and start talking.

And when I'm done?

Uh, you're just gonna hit

publish and it'll go live.

It's easy. Right?

I guess I'll give it a shot.

It's like learning

how to play a video game.

I have absolutely no idea

where to start.

Well, this is a place

of learning.

Speaking of, remember all that

news about, um, GameStop?

Those Reddit guys figured out

how to spark a stampede

of algorithms.

Just aggregate

a bunch of buyers.

Hmm. Yeah, it's like waving

a red flag in front of a bull.

This is you?

What? Ha!

A thousand years ago.

You hiked the Appalachian Trail.

Yeah, between college

and grad school.

I, uh, guess I was trying

to find myself.

You ever been there?

Yeah.

My wife and I -- we finished it.

Nearly finished it.

Oh, you're married?

No. Not anymore.

Ah. Divorced.

No. Um...she died.

Rare form of brain cancer.

I'm sorry. James.

My condolences.

How you holding up?

Look, you should be all set.

I actually --

I really gotta get going.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

No problem. Thanks for the help.

[down-tempo music plays]

[door opens]

Thanks for waiting, James.

You know Sharon from HR.

[dramatic music plays]

What is this?

I-I don't understand.

You'll get 30 days of severance,

but we need you

to sign a release

and a non-disparagement

agreement.

What for?

I mean, you haven't even

explained -- what is this?

I think it's in your best

interest just to sign.

A termination

would look pretty bad.

Termination? But for what?

On top of your poor attendance,

recently, there have been some

reports of misconduct.

What misconduct?!

I know I've been late

a few times,

but I explained that,

and I have not been late since.

Be sensible.

It's a good offer,

and you could get some help.

Get help for what?!

If you won't sign,

the termination will be

effective immediately

without pay.

We'll have to file a report.

[James]

But this is bullshit.

[music continues]

Yes, Maria, I-I just --

I need the deposit back,

or at least a part of it.

I know non-refundable

after 15 days.

It's just that my situation

has changed.

I did not expect this.

No, I-I'm not saying that.

It's not your fault.

I just...

No, you're right.

No, I-I'm sorry. It's...

Thank you, Maria.

If you need anything...

[dramatic music plays]

[crying]

I said I'd try, and I tried.

-[Aimee] James.

-Aimee.

Hey, hey.

Aimee, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry what I did to you.

You didn't deserve that at all.

I'm sorry.

-It's okay.

-I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's okay.

Hey, um...

I went to your apartment,

and I talked to the...

babysitter.

I heard about your mom.

James, I...

I'm really sorry.

I meant to go and see her.

To visit.

I just -- I got so...

I...

I-I can't say goodbye

to my mom.

I don't know what to do.

You don't have to right now.

I'm here.

Okay?

It's okay.

[sobbing]

[down-tempo music plays]

[Aimee] I'm right here.

[James continues sobbing]

[Drew] It's w*r!

I declare w*r.

Yes!

Hey, where you going?

I was just gonna go

check on the sink.

I've been meaning to.

You can do that later.

Come on.

Come play with us.

You believe in fate?

Depends on what we're talking

about, I guess.

Taking a class together.

Getting assigned a project.

You finding a place with land.

Where are you going with this?

You're free.

You're finally free

to do everything

that you wanted to do.

Yeah, but it was never supposed

to happen like this.

So what? Things don't always

go as planned.

You know what?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, I want a --

I want a -- a fresh start.

I wanna go somewhere new,

get out of this place,

get away from that job.

Been buried for so long.

I-I want to...

I wanna get into it.

Like, I-I do, I do.

I want to get into it.

I wanna find things

I like to do.

I wanna find things

you girls like to do.

I-I wanna...

be happy.

Mom would want that.

Then let's do it.

Let's be happy, right?

Let's get excited.

-Let's get hot cocoa!

-Let's get hot cocoa.

-[Imani] Yeah!

-[Aimee] Let's get hot cocoa.

Let's get our coats first.

-And our masks, too.

-Oh, yeah, let's --

let's get those things.

[Aimee] It's so nice out.

It's pretty good, especially

for this time of year.

You know it's gonna be

colder in Maine, right?

[James]

Yeah, but it's also gonna be

a lot cheaper to live there.

-Auntie Chrissy!

-Hey, boo-boo! [laughs]

-You dropped this.

-Thanks, Aimee.

-Oh, so you must be Aimee.

-You must be Christine.

-It's nice to finally meet you.

-Pleasure's all mine.

[Drew]

Aimee's just awesome!

[chuckles]

I'm sure she is.

We were just having

a little bit of hot cocoa.

-You want some?

-Oh, you sharing, Juju?

You must be in a good mood

today.

You know what? I don't have

any plans for the evening.

You girls want to stay with me?

Are you sure?

I mean, you've been

watching them most of the week.

I would like the time.

You two have fun.

Okay.

You girls be good, okay?

-Have fun.

-[Christine] Let's go.

[chuckles]

Wait. Aren't you getting

something?

I got yours.

[chuckles] Uh, love you.

[Christine] You better.

I love you, too.

Oh, heck no.

Welcome back to "FNM."

I'm Mike Spinelli.

And, uh, Jenny, unfortunately,

the news is not all good

for a few social-media

companies.

Particularly not for TAPiT,

whose CEO was just recently

on this show, right, Mike?

[Mike] Yes, he was.

Right there in that chair.

And what a total disaster.

Goldman has just canceled

their IPO, so it looks like...

Guys, get back to work!

[Mike] ...unless they can

pull off a fire sale...

[Jenny] Well, and they do have

some deep-pocketed investors.

I mean,

the CEO did make it sound

like the company

is thriving, right?

Yes, they do, and yes, he did.

But they've also been

racking up enormous debt

in anticipation of the IPO.

[Jenny] Well, would you say

his statements were false

or at least misleading?

You're up early.

I'm always up early.

[Mike] ...call them projections

and leave it at that.

[Jenny] Here we go.

One more question for you.

Isn't it true that their CEO

is currently facing

multiple sexual-misconduct

allegations,

not to mention

an IRS investigation

into fraudulent donations?

Unfortunately for Bryson,

both are true.

[dramatic music plays]

[snorts]

Amber!

Amber, please come in here.

[music continues]

I want you

to take that limp little chode

that you call a d*ck

and go f*ck yourself with it.

I f*cking quit.

Go to hell, Bryson.

[music continues]

Come on, come on, come on!

Come on, come on, come on!

Come on, come on, man!

[crying] I don't know what

I'm doing anymore!

[snorts]

[sobbing] I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!

Oh, my God!

Let's play some brighter music

and dive into

which sectors are looking

particularly strong today.

Oh, well,

it would be my pleasure.

Uh, commodities and industrials

are leading

a very strong market.

-Agricultural products...

-Holy sh*t.

...housing products,

particularly lumber...

Gardner was right.

-...very strongly...

-Looks like it.

No. Like, he was

really, really right.

How so?

He said to invest

in commodities, real things.

-[Mike] We'll be right back.

-Like timber.

[light, emotional music plays]

Come with us.

Come with you?

It might sound crazy,

but, you know,

this whole thing has been about

moving forward, being happy.

I've wasted so much time.

I just...

I can't picture any of that

without you.

[chuckles]

Um...

Would --

Would the girls like that?

-What about my job?

-We'll figure it out.

I love you, Aimee.

[chuckles]

I love you, James.

[music continues]

[Gardner]

Come on in.

Hey! Look!

The subscriber base is growing,

and comments.

People are actually engaging.

[chuckles]

That's awesome.

I-I didn't realize

that you already posted one.

Not just one.

Over a dozen.

[laughs]

I gotta thank you for motivating

me to start this podcast.

I mean, it's really nice to have

people that want to listen.

It sounds like you finally

found your audience.

Yeah, I think so.

Um, check your e-mail.

I just sent you a link.

Um, Professor...

I-I actually wanted

to thank you.

These last three years

have been...

difficult for me.

I don't think I really realized

how lost I was.

You know, you helped me

work through quite a bit of it.

I feel like I finally know

what I need to do now,

and...I'm ready to do it.

A lot of that's thanks to you.

I think that's the nicest thing

that an educator...

or a friend would want to hear.

I'm proud of your growth, James.

Are you gonna take any of my,

uh, electives next semester?

Oh, well, that's the thing.

-I'm moving.

-Moving?

Yeah, I invested in property

in Maine.

Timber, actually.

[chuckles] Wow.

You actually were listening.

Well, I-I gotta get going.

There's still a lot to do.

But I hope you have

a really good summer.

Enjoy Maine.

And more than that,

enjoy your journey.

All right?

Hey, James. Um...

A buddy of mine in Maine

deals in lumber trading.

I'm gonna text you

his number,

and you're gonna

give him a call.

He's always looking for

good help.

-Yeah. I really appreciate that.

-Yeah.

All right?

And if there's anything

you ever need,

don't you hesitate to call.

Thank you.

[chuckles]

Get outta here.

[light, happy music plays]

Welcome to

the "Money Game" podcast.

Our system is broken.

It is clear now that printing

money sends asset prices up.

What's less clear is that

it also slows the real economy

as we misallocate resources.

Now we have two

different economies --

the financial economy

and the real economy

that no longer work together.

Money printing doesn't

create wealth.

Wealth is created

by all your hard work.

[music continues]

[dog barking, toy squeaking]

[music continues]

Whatcha doin'?

Just looking and see where

we could put a garden.

A garden?

I like that idea.

Now that the barn's all set,

I could be down

for another project.

Thought you would.

Oh, hey,

did you talk to Lee yet?

I did.

Everything's all set.

I should be good to go on my own

in about a week.

[music continues]

-[basketball thumps]

-Ready?

For you?

One-zip.
