Hi, I'm Jake Winton.
If you're receiving this video,
it means that you have invested
in MINDS i.
It also means that we have
raised $2.5 million
to start production
on the sickest piece
of wearable technology
on the market today.
It's also much more affordable
than any of our competitors.
I'm not gonna name any names,
but I think you
know who you are.
I'm telling you,
there is no other product
as comprehensive, easy to use,
and f***ing cool as MINDS i.
Wired Magazine, TechCrunch,
and a whole mess
Look, I'm not an inventor.
I'm an investor.
All of my money is
in this product.
I know a good thing
when I see it,
and I want you guys
to see it all, so thank you.
And you're welcome.
Gersh, congrats,
her dad's out of jail.
Love the Windsor.
Chatakov, thank you
for the pork bun rack.
Sam, you're not on the list,
you can't be here.
Hey, dude, take off
the braided belt.
No bullshit in my house, okay?
- It's Hudson's apartment.
- Do what he says, dick.
- Dick.
- You're gonna kill it, Dick.
We're in for another 75K.
When I look around this room,
I see so many people
that I love...
for their money.
But this is where I say
something that I really mean.
I really want to thank you guys
all for being here
and investing your money
and your time
You are all gonna be so much
more interesting to talk to
at a dinner party
a week from now,
and you are gonna have
so much more money on paper.
- Whoo!
- To MINDS i.
Not bad.
Now, please, everybody
enjoy their champagne.
It's filled with rufies,
so we're gonna have
a good f***ing time tonight.
Oh, my God, you guys,
that is so hot.
Mmm, yeah, it is.
Who wants a cup of coffee?
Mmm... I do.
Yes.
Hey, lawyer man, tell me
you're bringing by more demos.
People want their eyes to get
f***ed by technology.
Hudson, please.
They're the manufacturer.
What do you mean,
they can't manufacture the part?
No, no, f***.
Look, it's China,
it's a big-ass country.
We'll just find someone else
to make the part, okay?
We just need to keep this quiet
and keep the launch smooth.
You're reading this
off of TechCrunch, aren't you?
Jesus Christ.
It's already out.
You guys are gonna
leave me in here?
B dog.
What, did you have
your f***ing mom
do the production research?
My mom's dead.
- Right.
- But we're gonna find
a new manufacturer
and make this right.
F*** you, f*** head.
Already on the phone, I love it.
Yeah, no, I'm on my way home.
He... he lost all the money.
See you, man.
What time is it?
We are gonna watch the sun rise
every day together, dude,
until your soul is healed.
Oh, I can't stay here.
Tickets.
Get your tickets out, please.
I'm sorry, I forget where...
I put it.
There it is.
Going backwards makes
a lot of people nauseous.
Yeah, I don't get nauseous, man.
New Rochelle.
Be there in no time.
Hey, man, where's my money?
I trusted you, give me a call...
Hey, great party.
Way to f*** up my life.
Stop texting Kat, okay?
She broke up with you, dude.
The end, she's done.
Hey, Jake, my kids aren't
going to camp
this summer.
Thanks, buddy.
I just wanted to let you know
that you probably shouldn't come
to the reunion this weekend.
You better find
another f***ing manufacturer...
Hey, Jake, I want you to tell
my wife that she's probably
gonna have to get a second job.
I changed your name
in my phone
to "life ruiner."
Jake, don't come
to my birthday party next week.
a voice mail
so you could hear in my voice
how disappointed and angry
and pissed I am!
Hey.
It's Jake, your brother.
I left you messages.
Well, I had no idea...
What are you doing here?
Hi.
Uh...
Do you not answer
your phone anymore?
I know, yeah,
it's basically impossible
for me to talk on the phone.
Hi... come in, hi.
- Hi.
- Ugh.
Whoa.
You all right?
No, it's good.
I'm good, I'm fine.
I'm pregnant.
Really? Wasn't Teddy born,
like, yesterday?
He's three.
He is?
And there's another one
in there?
with this belly.
Sorry, I just... I don't like
people touching it.
But you can touch it.
No, it's fine, I don't need
to touch anything.
So how pregnant are you?
13 weeks.
Wow.
Why aren't you wearing
your glasses?
I got Lasik.
You had surgery?
You don't have surgery
without telling people.
I could have come in for that.
When did you do it?
I don't know.
Last year.
Wow.
Your eyes look kind of buggy.
Yeah, that's what I was
going for.
Maybe you should check
your thyroid.
You should check your thyroid.
Sorry, this is Teddy's
wake of destruction.
Just step over that turtle,
and have a seat.
Where is Teddy?
Teddy!
He's actually at daycare,
and I have a early meeting,
so can you stay for dinner?
Yeah.
Is it cool if I crash here?
Tonight?
Sure.
Oh, don't sit there.
Sorry, that's where
Teddy puts his leaf babies
to sleep.
Oh, that's where his leaf babies
sleep, of course.
So, how long do you
need to stay?
For a couple nights.
That's a big bag.
Yeah, well, I couldn't cram
everything into a little bag
when my entire world
imploded upon itself.
You don't seem very focused.
Huh?
I'm focused.
I'm focused on you
and on folding this laundry
and on not being late.
What is going on?
Well, you can basically take
the last three years of my life
and light them on fire.
Company's f***ed.
My girlfriend dumped me.
People hate me.
Oh. Did you, uh,
lose a lot of money?
Oh, yeah, no, I lost, uh,
all of my money and then some,
and then I lost a lot
of other people's money,
which feels
surprisingly terrible.
Dude, can you just
take the day off?
I can't.
I-I've been out a lot lately
and my principal is tracking
my level of commitment, so...
Whatever.
You're gonna be fine, Jake.
F*** those people.
I'm done with the city.
Your shirt's buttoned wrong.
Oh.
Sh*t. Thanks.
So, if it's a couple of months,
Is that okay? Three months?
Jesus, three months?
I'm sorry I didn't schedule
my life falling apart
better for you.
That's not what I'm saying.
You just...
You show up here
with your big bag,
and you haven't been out here
for at least a year.
I was here for Teddy's birthday.
We invited you
and you didn't come.
Well, I wanted to be there,
okay?
That counts for something.
- I have to talk to Danny.
- Like ask him permission?
Like have a conversation
where I ask him
with us for three months
because he's my husband.
Can you answer me
as to why there are
so many new sconces
around the house?
We're trying to sell the house.
Could you maybe not sell
Please?
I'm really sorry, Jake.
Look, just...
Just hang out,
and eat whatever you want,
and I'll be home tonight
and we can all have dinner.
Okay.
It's freezing in this house.
