191. How could this happen?Copy !req
192. - It's unprecedented.

Four.Copy !req

219. Shh. Please don't let her hear your voice.Copy !req
220. She needs sleep.Copy !req
221. They're monitoring for internal bleeding.Copy !req
222. She just had a second transfusion,
and she's on heavy pain meds.Copy !req
223. There were two of them.
She can describe them.Copy !req
224. It's not like
they were disguising themselves.Copy !req
225. One was a woman.Copy !req
226. This wasn't a robbery.
She told me that… She…Copy !req
227. She might—
- Take your time.Copy !req
228. "There are worse things
than what they did to me."Copy !req
229. She kept telling me.Copy !req
230. Can you imagine?Copy !req
231. Worse things?Copy !req
232. She told me that during the…Copy !req
233. assault,Copy !req
234. she stabbed a man,Copy !req
235. ran through a fucking plate glass window,Copy !req
236. - hid in the jungle—
- Marcus, breathe.Copy !req
237. They left in a green car
with a light on top.Copy !req
238. Like a fucking taxi.Copy !req
239. Can you believe it?Copy !req
240. Look, she knows
there are things she can and cannot sayCopy !req
241. if anyone comes asking.Copy !req
242. All this time you've been very kind
to my sister.Copy !req
243. She loves you.Copy !req
244. I've learned not to pry.Copy !req
245. - But this—
- Marcus.Copy !req
246. They came for you,Copy !req
247. and they weren't about to leave a witness.Copy !req
248. Marcus, listen very carefully.Copy !req
249. I promise, I swear to you,Copy !req
250. nothing like this
will ever be allowed to happen again.Copy !req
251. She's well enough to travel,
and later today, she'll be transportedCopy !req
252. to the private hospital
in Punta Cana as arranged.Copy !req
253. No. You mustn't try…Copy !req
254. Are you all right?Copy !req
255. Let me see you.Copy !req
256. I was so afraid.
Afraid I might say something.Copy !req
257. But I didn't.Copy !req
258. No matter what they said,Copy !req
259. no matter what he did,Copy !req
260. I didn't tell them anything.Copy !req
261. Not about you.Copy !req
262. Nothing.Copy !req
263. You'd have been proud.Copy !req
264. - I was strong.
- I know you were.Copy !req
265. How… How bad is it?Copy !req
266. I'll see soon enough, huh?Copy !req
267. I told myself,Copy !req
268. "If I don't make it,Copy !req
269. if I don't survive,Copy !req
270. I'll never see him again."Copy !req
271. I couldn't bear that.Copy !req
272. So, I made up my mind.Copy !req
273. Get some rest now.Copy !req
274. Okay.Copy !req
275. SIGNATURE REQUIREDCopy !req
276. Would you rather send this overnight?Copy !req
277. So, for that rate,
this would be delivered two days from now,Copy !req
278. end of business, Mr.… Madison.Copy !req
279. I blame you, Leo,
for having to bring work home.Copy !req
280. Stick to the plan.Copy !req

282. Trust no one.Copy !req
283. Never yield an advantage.Copy !req
284. Fight only the battle
you're paid to fight.Copy !req
285. - Disculpa. I'm late.
- Forbid empathy.Copy !req
286. Empathy is weakness.Copy !req
287. Weakness is vulnerability.Copy !req
288. Each and every step of the way,
ask yourself,Copy !req
289. "What's in it for me?"Copy !req
290. This is what it takes.Copy !req
291. What you must commit yourself to…Copy !req
292. if you want to succeed.Copy !req
293. Simple.Copy !req
294. Oh shit, man.Copy !req
295. I just started.
Alguna moneda es lo único que tengo.Copy !req
296. I'll show you, okay?Copy !req
297. Take it, man.Copy !req
298. There's a rubber in there too…
what's mine is yours.Copy !req
299. Take the wallet if you want.Copy !req
300. What else? Hmm? Want my radio?Copy !req
301. Tell me about your big fare, Leo,
three days ago.Copy !req
302. What?Copy !req
303. Three days? Hey.Copy !req
304. Wait, wait. Don't!
Okay, I… I'll tell you. Um…Copy !req
305. Uh…Copy !req
306. The freak and the lady, right?Copy !req
307. From the… From the private airport,
that's who?Copy !req
308. I picked them up around noon.
I remember, it was right before lunch.Copy !req
309. I'd been waiting around.
There was nothing. Slow day, slow week.Copy !req
310. I was about to split when one
of those little jets came in, so I stayed.Copy !req
311. And they come, two crazy-looking güeros.
And the lady? Like a Q-tip.Copy !req
312. And the dude with her?Copy !req
313. Should've kept him on a leash.
He was a scary motherfucker.Copy !req
314. Walk me through your time with them
to the very best of your recollection.Copy !req
315. No problem. I drove them. That's all.Copy !req
316. "Round trip" was what they said,
then they told me north on Highway 1,Copy !req
317. then deep into the damn jungle,
like forever.Copy !req
318. They showed me on Google. I drove them.Copy !req
319. They wouldn't take no for an answer.Copy !req
320. We go to a private property,
and I was supposed to wait.Copy !req
321. They were gone… an hour, maybe.Copy !req
322. Take this next exit.Copy !req
323. All I know is that I was starvingCopy !req
324. and I didn't care
how much the meter was ticking.Copy !req
325. I was going to leave them.
I'm not allowed to, but I almost did.Copy !req
326. Pull up in here.Copy !req
327. They came back after sunset.Copy !req
328. The guy's leg
was all bloody and fucked up.Copy !req
329. They wanted me to take 'em back
to the airport, so I did.Copy !req
330. That was the end of it.Copy !req
331. May I?Copy !req
332. Want one?Copy !req
333. Ask me anything. Anything.Copy !req
334. I don't know who they are.
Don't wanna know who you are either.Copy !req
335. Con todo respeto.Copy !req
336. So, how about I get out
and I leave the keys? I'll walk back—Copy !req
337. And…Copy !req
338. you're all set, Mr. Cunningham.Copy !req
339. Have a pleasant trip.Copy !req
340. New Orleans.Copy !req
341. Lovely, humid New Orleans.Copy !req
342. A thousand restaurants, one menu.Copy !req
343. Where good old Professor Hodges
convinced me to quit studying lawCopy !req
344. and try skirting it.Copy !req
345. There are more
than 50,000 storage facilities in the US.Copy !req
346. I have units in six.Copy !req
347. I like to imagine,
once the automatic payments have dried up,Copy !req
348. the episode of Storage Wars
where they cut the lock on one of mineCopy !req
349. and get a look inside.Copy !req
350. Dolores.Copy !req
351. Miss me?Copy !req
352. CCTV and a 1980s deadlatch lock.Copy !req
353. Outmoded solutions
to real security problems.Copy !req
354. Yo!Copy !req
355. Thank you so much, man.Copy !req
356. You're a lifesaver.Copy !req
357. One, one thousand.Copy !req
358. Two, one thousand.Copy !req
359. - Three, one thousand.Copy !req
360. Four, one thousand.Copy !req
361. Five, one thousand.Copy !req
362. Six, one thousand.Copy !req
363. Seven, one thousand.Copy !req
364. Can't wait for it.
No, I know.Copy !req
365. Everything good?Copy !req
366. Everything's good.
Just the one today?Copy !req
367. Just the one.
Oh my goodness.Copy !req
368. - Have a good one.
See ya.Copy !req
369. Hello, Dolores.Copy !req
370. Hello. How—Copy !req
371. Oh.Copy !req
372. Oh my God!Copy !req
373. Oh my God. Oh my God.Copy !req
374. Oh my God. Oh my God.Copy !req
375. - Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God.
Stop saying that.Copy !req
376. What is it, Dolores?
- I'm sorry, sir.Copy !req
377. I said I need email ti—Copy !req
378. Good God.Copy !req
379. What could you possibly be thinking,
coming here?Copy !req
380. This is very unlike you, my friend.
Care to explain yourself?Copy !req
381. 'Cause I can't conceive
of anything I have to offerCopy !req
382. that could remotely be worth
the exposure you're risking right now.Copy !req
383. Go ahead.Copy !req
384. Whatever he says.Copy !req
385. Insanity.Copy !req
386. There's no other word for this. Insanity.Copy !req
387. Surely you can't be angry with me.Copy !req
388. I'm so sorry.
I… I… I opened the outer door.Copy !req
389. - Dolores.
- The FedEx—Copy !req
390. - I'm the one who's sorry.Copy !req
391. I sincerely apologize.Copy !req
392. There's clearly been
some sort of misunderstanding.Copy !req
393. I'd like to ask you to take a breath.Copy !req
394. Think for a minute.Copy !req
395. This'll be resolved in a moment, darlin'.
I promise you.Copy !req
396. Once he realizes the folly of his actions.Copy !req
397. You went home?Copy !req
398. How could you have,
realizing my hands were—Copy !req
399. You had to have known that I'd have no say
in the matter going forward.Copy !req
400. - And still, you went home?
- Who were they?Copy !req
401. Who were they?Copy !req
402. First of all, who cares?Copy !req
403. I barely glanced at the invoice, which,Copy !req
404. if I may say,
is very much beside the point.Copy !req
405. The consequences,
when someone's wide of the mark,Copy !req
406. are automatic.Copy !req
407. However regrettable, they're
an obligation to client and calling.Copy !req
408. I was forced to make amends
to a very angry, very powerful man.Copy !req
409. Never in my wildest imagination
did I think you'd actually go home.Copy !req
410. Not in a million years.Copy !req
411. - The fuck? That's just juvenile.Copy !req
412. Though it's not too late.Copy !req
413. Even now,
this entire debacle can be salvaged.Copy !req
414. But only if you disappear,Copy !req
415. which is what I assumed
you've already done.Copy !req
416. You've got more money
than you could ever spend,Copy !req
417. thanks, in no small part, to me,Copy !req
418. so why aren't you already
on the other side of the globe,Copy !req
419. under any number of aliases, spending it?Copy !req
420. You don't believe me,
don't feel you can trust me.Copy !req
421. Fine. I suppose I brought that on myself.Copy !req
422. But after all these years,
having built this from the ground up,Copy !req
423. I thought we had a relationship.Copy !req
424. It's all here somewhere.Copy !req
425. I know you have backups, Eddie.Copy !req
426. On me, everyone, the whole shebang.Copy !req
427. 'Cause you'd never put it on the CloudCopy !req
428. any more than you'd trust it
outside this office.Copy !req
429. There's nothing like that.Copy !req
430. Everything I dealt with
was on those two laptops.Copy !req
431. And now, it's not.Copy !req
432. Who do you think
you're trying to intimidate?Copy !req
433. You're not gonna. There's no upside.Copy !req
434. The only logical choice for youCopy !req
435. is to turn around right now,
walk out that door,Copy !req
436. go embrace your next life.Copy !req
437. I wish you well.Copy !req
438. You'll drown slowly,
then I'll dispose of you.Copy !req
439. So while a few fragments
of your side-hustleCopy !req
440. may be left to puzzle over…Copy !req
441. …since you'll have completely vanished,Copy !req
442. the trail ends where it began.Copy !req
443. Unless…Copy !req
444. I need that information, Edward.Copy !req
445. And you are running outta time.Copy !req
446. Fuck…Copy !req
447. you…Copy !req

452. Stick to the plan.Copy !req
453. Anticipate, don't improvise.Copy !req
454. Fight only the battle
you're paid to fight.Copy !req
455. Trust no one.Copy !req
456. I'd beg
if I thought it would do any good.Copy !req
457. I have the names you're looking for.
I know who they were.Copy !req
458. But… before I give them to you,
I want something in return…Copy !req
459. I know what you're capable of,
how you can…Copy !req
460. make things seem.Copy !req
461. I'll give you those names,Copy !req
462. but promise me you won't leave things
looking the wrong way.Copy !req
463. Please.Copy !req
464. I can't just disappear.Copy !req
465. My children need my life insur—Copy !req
466. Forbid empathy.Copy !req
467. I guess I am begging.Copy !req
468. Empathy is weakness.Copy !req
469. Weakness is vulnerability.Copy !req
470. Each and every step of the way,Copy !req
471. ask yourself, "What's in it for me?"Copy !req
472. This is what it takes.Copy !req
473. What you must commit yourself toCopy !req
474. if you want to succeed.Copy !req
475. Simple.Copy !req
476. Need any help getting rid of that body?Copy !req
477. I'm not a bad person.Copy !req
478. I'm not.Copy !req
479. Start date
of your employment in ParisCopy !req
480. was November 28, so go to N.Copy !req
481. Under N, in numerical order, find 1128.Copy !req
482. One, one, two, eight.Copy !req
483. You'll recognize the address.Copy !req
484. Because of…Copy !req
485. what happened,Copy !req
486. there's an addendum on the back.Copy !req
487. Should be two wire transfer
routing numbersCopy !req
488. for the subcontractors
you're interested in.Copy !req
489. They're filed under an account number.
What's the number?Copy !req
490. - Two, three, one—
- T.Copy !req
491. Numerically, again.Copy !req
492. Claybourne?Copy !req
493. The client.Copy !req
494. Cleanup, without fail,
is labor-intensive.Copy !req
495. To say the least.Copy !req
496. If you don't want a puzzle solved,Copy !req
497. remove a piece or two.Copy !req
498. Scatter the rest.Copy !req
499. What's the expression?Copy !req
500. Measure twice, cut once.Copy !req
501. Even I have to remind myself…Copy !req
502. the only life path…Copy !req
503. is the one behind you.Copy !req
504. All right.
And she's all yours, Mr. Kincaid.Copy !req
505. In 600 feet,
your destination will be on the left.Copy !req
506. Ah. The Sunshine State.Copy !req
507. Where else can you find
so many like-minded individuals…Copy !req
508. - [pit bull barks, growls]
Yeah.Copy !req
509. …outside a penitentiary.Copy !req
510. - Hope they're not planning a sleepover.
Come on.Copy !req
511. First things first…Copy !req
512. Get that money!Copy !req
513. We gonna make some money tonight, baby!Copy !req
514. Maybe a mandatory 30-day waiting periodCopy !req
515. for creatine's not a bad idea.Copy !req
516. - So, here you are.Copy !req
517. Vigilant.Copy !req
518. Narrowly focused.Copy !req
519. How's "I don't give a fuck" going?Copy !req
520. Bye, man.Copy !req
521. Diva, down!Copy !req
522. Diva! Come on.Copy !req
523. This'll have to be a best guess,Copy !req
524. based on the average pit bull
weighing 45 to 55 pounds.Copy !req
525. She actually looks biggerCopy !req
526. up close.Copy !req

536. yet filled with warmth and grace.Copy !req
537. Meet the music of America.Copy !req
538. It's the way
to our Atlantic sun and beaches.Copy !req
539. And our Caribbean island destinations.Copy !req
540. Today we're back
in Arley Hall and Gardens in Cheshire.Copy !req
541. And if you are a garden lover,
prepare to be very excitedCopy !req
542. because this is one of
the oldest country gardens…Copy !req
543. Stick to your plan.Copy !req
544. Anticipate, don't improvise.Copy !req
545. …is one
of the oldest in the country.Copy !req
546. Trust no one.Copy !req
547. Fight only the battle
you're paid to fight.Copy !req
548. You picked the wrong house, motherfucker.Copy !req
549. Is that the "Dominican Republican"?Copy !req
550. It is you, isn't it?Copy !req
551. You know, most peop—Copy !req
552. This is what it takes.Copy !req
553. What you must commit yourself to…Copy !req
554. if you want to succeed.Copy !req
555. Simple.Copy !req
556. Welcome, Mr. Grant.Copy !req
557. We'll let you know
as soon as your flight begins boarding.Copy !req
558. Homeward bound, I hope.Copy !req

564. Stone's throw from the city
that never sleeps.Copy !req
565. Barely off the beaten path.Copy !req
566. What are you doing?Copy !req
567. Living amongst the "normies."Copy !req
568. On behalf of Enterprise,
Mr. Malone, have a safe driving day.Copy !req
569. For an active practitioner,
bedroom community adjacent.Copy !req
570. Unusual choice.Copy !req
571. Leo told me she looked like a Q-tip.Copy !req
572. He wasn't far off.Copy !req
573. The wind,
from the west northwestCopy !req
574. at 20 miles an hour.Copy !req
575. Light snow or snow flurries
and continued cold through tomorrow.Copy !req
576. The high today, 28. The low tonight, 15.Copy !req
577. The high tomorrow, 25. West to northwest—Copy !req
578. All right.Copy !req
579. It's common knowledge
when a female is found slain,Copy !req
580. the prime suspect
is always the husband or boyfriend.Copy !req
581. Especially if she hasn't been
sexually assaulted.Copy !req
582. Well, maybe not common knowledge.Copy !req
583. - I don't know if I think it's art, but…
Okay.Copy !req
584. Wait, wait, wait—Copy !req
585. I've been so good for so long.Copy !req
586. I'm suddenly regretting
not having Häagen-Dazs with every meal.Copy !req
587. - May I bring a menu?
- No menu. Thank you, Carl.Copy !req
588. You won't mind if I have a drink.
A flight of whiskeys, please.Copy !req
589. And my bottle, while you're at it.Copy !req
590. My pleasure.Copy !req
591. By a drink, I mean, of course, many.Copy !req
592. Tell me Hodges is dead, at least.
Give me that.Copy !req
593. Tell me he went horribly.Copy !req
594. Help yourself.Copy !req
595. The chef sends out
anything he imagines I might like.Copy !req
596. This is, uh, his signature dish.
It's delicious.Copy !req
597. You won't find better, even in the city.Copy !req
598. You would be very impolite
to refuse to join in my last supper.Copy !req
599. Afraid it's tainted?Copy !req
600. I'm assuming you've also paid a visit
to a certain overadrenalized Floridian.Copy !req
601. No loss there.Copy !req
602. Here we are.
- Oh, that was quick.Copy !req
603. May I describe the selection?Copy !req
604. You know, by the time you're finished,
they'd all be gone.Copy !req
605. Cheers.Copy !req
606. You won't imbibe either?Copy !req
607. Christ.Copy !req
608. For what it's worth,Copy !req
609. I would never have involved
your female friend.Copy !req
610. What happened to her, I had no part in.Copy !req
611. I objected to his methods,
and I told him so.Copy !req
612. But you've seen for yourself how…Copy !req
613. receptive…Copy !req
614. You… you get a name, you get an address.Copy !req
615. It's nothing personal.Copy !req
616. We've all had to work
through the occasional civilianCopy !req
617. who's stood between eyes and the prize.Copy !req
618. When I started,
I was surprised at what I was capable of.Copy !req
619. How easy it was.Copy !req
620. Shockingly.Copy !req
621. Yet, I assured myself
there were some things I would never do.Copy !req
622. Money was motivation.Copy !req
623. Which…Copy !req
624. once there was enough,
could be used to buy another life.Copy !req
625. Another lie we told ourselves.Copy !req
626. When, for example, was the last time
you bothered to ask yourselfCopy !req
627. why someone in your sights
was so thoroughly despised?Copy !req
628. Less you know, the better.Copy !req
629. "One man's cruelty
is another man's pragmatism."Copy !req
630. That old chestnut.Copy !req
631. A hunter goes into the woods,Copy !req
632. and he sees this grizzly.Copy !req
633. Biggest he's ever seen.Copy !req
634. He raises his rifle, and he fires.Copy !req
635. The bear falls, the hunter rushes forward,Copy !req
636. and to his surprise,
there's nothing there.Copy !req
637. There's no bear,
there's no broken twigs, there's no blood.Copy !req
638. And then suddenly,Copy !req
639. the grizzly throws this massive arm
around his shoulders and explains,Copy !req
640. "You took your shot."Copy !req
641. "You missed,Copy !req
642. so either I feast, or,Copy !req
643. and the choice is yours,Copy !req
644. I sodomize you."Copy !req
645. Naturally, the hunter chooses life.Copy !req
646. The next day,
the hunter returns to the woodsCopy !req
647. with a much bigger gun,
and he spots the bear again.Copy !req
648. And he aims. He fires. The bear falls.Copy !req
649. The hunter charges.Copy !req
650. No sign of the bear,
until the bear is standing beside him,Copy !req
651. saying, "You know the deal."Copy !req
652. Indignity ensues.Copy !req
653. The following day,
the hunter treks back to the wood.Copy !req
654. This time with a bazooka.Copy !req
655. He sees the bear,
lines him up in his crosshairs, fires.Copy !req
656. The recoil from the bazooka
throws him backwards.Copy !req
657. And he looks up as the smoke's clearing,Copy !req
658. and there's the bear standing above him,
arms crossed.Copy !req
659. And the bear squints.Copy !req
660. "You're not really out here
for the hunting, are you?"Copy !req
661. This could've been a hit-and-run,
carjacking, me falling on the ice.Copy !req
662. And yet, here you are.Copy !req
663. If I screamed right now,
I'd still end up dead.Copy !req
664. You would make it out.Copy !req
665. Most likely.Copy !req
666. But not clean, you wouldn't.Copy !req
667. Why take this risk?Copy !req
668. Desperate for conversation.Copy !req
669. I'm flattered, but no.Copy !req
670. You're here
because you couldn't help yourself.Copy !req
671. You expected to sit across from me
and feel nothing but reassured.Copy !req
672. Like that recent day
when you shouldered your weaponCopy !req
673. and somehow…Copy !req
674. missed.Copy !req
675. - How's it possible?Copy !req
676. Having prepared myself
for this moment for so long,Copy !req
677. I have failed to believe
that it would ever arrive.Copy !req
678. How are we?Copy !req
679. We're done. You can take everything.Copy !req
680. Excellent.Copy !req
681. They wouldn't happen to have any ice cream
back there, would they, Carl?Copy !req
682. Oh. Were you interested
in a dessert menu?Copy !req
683. No. No, it's all right.Copy !req
684. Stick to the plan…Copy !req
685. Anticipate, don't improvise.Copy !req
686. Trust no—Copy !req
687. Are we there yet?Copy !req
688. A little further?Copy !req
689. Far be it from me,
but maybe down by the river?Copy !req
690. Wow.Copy !req
691. Last minutes spent knowing
they're last minutes.Copy !req
692. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.Copy !req
693. Who, come to think of it,
at this moment, is you.Copy !req
694. You'll remember our conversation.Copy !req
695. You will.Copy !req
696. When your time does arrive.Copy !req
697. It won't be your life flashing
before your eyes, it'll be mine.Copy !req
698. I suppose it'll be the closest
I can hope to come to haunting you.Copy !req
699. Help a girl out, won't you?Copy !req
700. Trust no one.Copy !req
701. This is what it takes…Copy !req
702. …if you want to succeed.Copy !req
703. Risky, this one.Copy !req
704. Considering how police
tend to match their effortCopy !req
705. in direct proportion
to the victim's net worth.Copy !req
706. Fuck it.Copy !req
707. The thing about real wealth,
the more you've got,Copy !req
708. the harder it is
to fade into the wallpaper.Copy !req
709. Of course, vanity plates don't help.Copy !req
710. You've arrived
at your destination.Copy !req
711. I don't think this guy's Mossad.Copy !req
712. I know he ain't Mensa.Copy !req
713. Good luck with the Wordle.Copy !req
714. Leave no loose ends,
nothing to dangle.Copy !req
715. Sayonara, North America.Copy !req
716. If I might get your initials
here and here.Copy !req
717. Dotting that I and crossing that T.Copy !req
718. Perfect.Copy !req
719. Your business with us
is officially closed,Copy !req
720. with everything transferred
to your Caribbean account.Copy !req
721. I do hope we can be of service again
in the near future, Mr. Jefferson.Copy !req
722. May I mention,Copy !req
723. our wealth management advisors
would be more than happy to discussCopy !req
724. our select investment opportunities.Copy !req
725. Interesting.Copy !req
726. Hey. Hey, guys. Not here.Copy !req
727. Guys, keep it moving. Thank you.Copy !req
728. Here you go.Copy !req
729. Browning. Smith & Wesson. Colt.Copy !req
730. You don't see what you want,
I can always get it.Copy !req
731. What's your pleasure, my man?380?Copy !req
732. Good enough for James Bond.Copy !req
733. How about this right here?
Gut-rippin' .38?Copy !req
734. There's the Desert Eagle,Copy !req
735. if you're looking
for something relatively portableCopy !req
736. that can lay down an elk.Copy !req
737. My man knows his way around
a Glock subcompact.Copy !req
738. Brings his own potato.Copy !req
739. Yeehaw, man.Copy !req
740. I like you, slim.
Next gun is half off.Copy !req
741. This is plenty.Copy !req
742. Want ammo?
- No, thank you.Copy !req
743. No ammo.Copy !req
744. Welcome, Mr. Hartley.Copy !req
745. First time with us, I see.Copy !req
746. Have an excellent workout.Copy !req
747. Brand new.Copy !req
748. Man, I'm sorry.Copy !req
749. Eh.Copy !req
750. That's not insanity.Copy !req
751. What's insane is driving 90 miles
each way to work.Copy !req
752. Right.Copy !req
753. Then going, "This is fucked up.
I hate this. I don't want to do this."Copy !req
754. Then getting in the car the very next day,
driving 90 miles each way to work.Copy !req
755. You're absolutely right.Copy !req
756. I told you.
You don't listen to me.Copy !req
757. You ask, "Yo, Clay.
What about this Bitcoin deal?"Copy !req
758. "Clay, what's a short sell?"Copy !req
759. And I tell you,
and you love that shit.Copy !req
760. - But this… You're not listening.
I'm listening.Copy !req
761. So what are we doing?
- Come on. Let's go.Copy !req
762. Oh.Copy !req
763. Let's go to work.Copy !req
764. It's like if you said,
"Let's do laddered intervals."Copy !req
765. And I went, "Huh?"Copy !req
766. - "Ladders? I don't wanna do that."Copy !req
767. Who needs a Trojan horse
when you've got Postmates?Copy !req
768. 'Cause everything's airtightCopy !req
769. till the billionaire wants
densuke watermelon.Copy !req
770. [Marcus, echoing] They came for you,
and they weren't about to leave a witness.Copy !req
771. I was so afraid,
afraid I might say something.Copy !req
772. I don't know who they are.Copy !req
773. Don't wanna know who you are either.Copy !req
774. Consequences, when someone's
wide of the mark, are automatic.Copy !req
775. I guess I am begging.
You picked the wrong house.Copy !req
776. When you shouldered
your weapon, and somehow…Copy !req
777. …missed.Copy !req
778. Once I see his eyes,Copy !req
779. I'll have a pretty good idea
how this is gonna go.Copy !req
780. There must be
some applicable tax burden offset.Copy !req
781. And I simply expect to see
heaven and earth moving.Copy !req
782. He— Hey!Copy !req
783. I'm not going to be disappointed in you.Copy !req
784. I'll be disappointed in me
and everyone involvedCopy !req
785. for not having replaced you soon—Copy !req
786. Who the fu—Copy !req
787. How did you…Copy !req
788. Okay.Copy !req
789. Uh… Uh…Copy !req
790. I…Copy !req
791. I'll call you back, Marvin.Copy !req
792. Uh… Uh…Copy !req
793. Gotta call back, Marv.Copy !req
794. - I'm fucking hanging up.Copy !req
795. I…Copy !req
796. So nobody gets crazy.Copy !req
797. I didn't notice the, uh…Copy !req
798. I'm all ears.Copy !req
799. Secure building, eh?
Christmas bonuses'll be light this year.Copy !req
800. I, uh…Copy !req
801. I don't keep cash here.Copy !req
802. But I can have some delivered. No?Copy !req
803. Okay, well, what is it exactly
I can do for you?Copy !req
804. I came to show you how easily
one might get to you, Mr. Claybourne.Copy !req
805. And to ask, do you and I have a problem?Copy !req
806. Do we… What? A problem?Copy !req
807. No, of course not.Copy !req
808. Am I supposed to know who you are?Copy !req
809. Because my memory for names
and faces isn't what it used to be.Copy !req
810. All right.Copy !req
811. There's an address.Copy !req
812. It's 3 Rue du Grev…Copy !req
813. I'm still not—Copy !req
814. Oh.Copy !req
815. Oh.Copy !req
816. Wait.Copy !req
817. You.Copy !req
818. I didn't realize.Copy !req
819. Please hear me out.Copy !req
820. To answer your question,
we have no problem.Copy !req
821. I harbor no ill will
about anything that may have happened.Copy !req
822. Or not happened.Copy !req
823. Let me make that crystal clear.Copy !req
824. Right after the, uh… incident,
I received a phone call.Copy !req
825. I was told that things had gone sideways.Copy !req
826. My response was, "Nobody's perfect."Copy !req
827. Now, I did, I admit, inquire as to what
is normally done in these circumstances.Copy !req
828. And they… he, the lawyer fella, Hedges,Copy !req
829. suggested that in this very rare case,Copy !req
830. I might wish to arrange for insurance
to prevent any blowback.Copy !req
831. I remember thinking,Copy !req
832. "Now, why in the world
is this liability mine?"Copy !req
833. I mean, you have to please understand
this entire—Copy !req
834. I was very new to this kind of thing.Copy !req
835. I bled a little ink, so yeah.
Selfishly, I didn't want any blowback.Copy !req
836. And so, eventually,
we agreed that for an additional 150kCopy !req
837. the trail could be scrubbed.Copy !req
838. That was literally all I was told.
"Cleanup on aisle three."Copy !req
839. His words, not mine.Copy !req
840. And so, I made sure
there was enough in escrowCopy !req
841. and never thought about it again.Copy !req
842. Until…Copy !req
843. What I'm trying to say here,
and I can't express this strongly enough,Copy !req
844. I have no issue with you.Copy !req
845. Zero.Copy !req
846. As far as I'm concerned,Copy !req
847. we're good.Copy !req
848. I'm curious.Copy !req
849. I break into your homeCopy !req
850. in the middle of the night
with a silenced pistol,Copy !req
851. and you have no idea why I might be here?Copy !req
852. If I have to come back,Copy !req
853. maybe a radioactive speck
on the lip of your favorite coffee mug.Copy !req
854. A slow death, mind you,
from painful facial necrosis.Copy !req
855. Or a tragic misstep
into your penthouse elevator shaft.Copy !req
856. But I promise,Copy !req
857. I'll find something fitting.Copy !req
858. The need to feel secure.Copy !req
859. It's a slippery slope.Copy !req
860. Fate is a placebo.Copy !req
861. The only life path…Copy !req
862. the one behind you.Copy !req
