Assault on Wall Street Page #4

---

I'm sorry, I don't know

what else to tell you.

You could declare bankruptcy,

a lot of people do that.

F*** you.

That's a fair response,

I suppose.

Hey!

Hey.

You at the bank?

Yeah.

Well what was it about?

Like I said, don't worry

about it.

All right?

Mmmhmm.

Good.

Ahh... I knew you'd have no

problems coming up with this.

I got it from a friend.

It will and then I'll see if

I can find other investors

who got burned on this

and put together a

collective lawsuit.

Collective ball scratching.

What's that?

It's just a joke.

Not funny, I guess.

Don't underestimate the

power of a large group

when it comes to

asking for damages.

I hope so.

So what do I do about this

letter demanding 60 grand?

I'll contact the other party,

I will let them know

I am your attorney

and that you will

not be paying.

You know, there may be

another way out of this.

You take the fall on

this but it could end

all this drama for

you instantly.

Would you be willing to write

off your initial investment

and walk away if these guys

let you out of the 60,000?

It's something you

should consider.

It could be years before

the real estate market

bounces back.

If for some reason I can get

the court to grant

injunctive relief to

stop these guys,

years of interest on

this claim against you.

This motion, it's gonna

work right?

Most likely, but nothing

in law is for certain.

I'm just offering

this as an option

but if they're willing to let

you play ball and back off,

then you can put it

all behind you.

It'd be nice, huh?

Okay, don't think

about it for too long,

the time to act is now.

You just paid me, I can either

file the complaint as planned

or I can try and negotiate

directly with them

but I need to do one

or the other.

I need a day.

Half a day would be better.

All right, I uh...

I got a meeting

with the assistant

district attorney today.

Oh yeah, good.

I'll put that in the letter.

Thanks.

Let me know what happens.

I'm sure I double checked

the schedule when you called

doesn't have time in his

schedule for you today.

I'm sorry, I can leave him

a message if you'd like.

Well um, maybe you can answer

a few questions for me.

I'm afraid that I wouldn't

be any help with anything.

I'm not even a legal secretary,

I'm just an assistant.

Just the assistant,

that's your excuse?

Do you have any idea

what's going on here?

Have you heard of my name

at all?

No, I'm sorry sir.

No, I don't.

You haven't.

Myra, coffee please.

I need to speak to you.

Mr. Marwood!

Mr. Marwood is very busy.

Please, I'm gonna have

to ask you to leave.

I need to speak to him.

Don't make me have

to call security.

I am security,

you f***ing b*tch.

Get your f***ing hands

off me.

So... how did it go today?

The bastard didn't have time

for me.

You had an appointment, man.

Yeah.

You gonna be okay?

You have reached the voicemail

of Patterson Law Group,

please leave a message

after the tone.

These bastards, they never

answer their f***ing phones.

Hey uh... about the money,

seriously...

don't even worry

about paying me back.

It ain't no thing but

a chicken wing, man.

I appreciate that.

I've done everything,

I went to the DA,

I went to the lawyer...

f***ing banks.

The system's rigged

motherf***er!

Come on, you know that sh*t.

Yeah.

Yeah it is.

Let's go get some alcohol,

make the pain go away.

Perhaps the best example

of how this all works

is in the AIG bailout.

When AIG went bankrupt...

Listen lady, I've left him

a ton of messages, a ton.

He's the guy in charge

of prosecuting

the brokerage houses,

right?

Yes, that's one of

many cases.

Well I need to speak to him

urgently, like right now.

100 cents on the dollar was paid

to the Goldman Sachs debtors.

When a firm goes bankrupt

you don't expect

to get a hundred percent

of those dollars

because it's a bankrupt firm,

it can't pay its debts.

Thank you.

You can expect to get maybe 50

cents on the dollar, but no...

the American taxpayer

pays Goldman Sachs

100 cents on the dollar

and all those...

were also secretary

of the treasury.

The occupy Wall

Street protests,

a few thousand people,

I do not understand

why the American people are

not up in arms about this.

These are criminal acts,

this is blatant fraud

and conflict of interest.

There's no government

investigation,

charges have been laid,

one's even looking into it!

And yet all the information

is there in the open to see.

These are criminals walking

in our midst.

And now the banks want

the same piece of faith

that we have in our government.

The banks have been

trading with ideas,

they just have derivatives and

swaps that move back and forth.

This has to stop,

this can't go on.

We have to underpin our

dealings with actual wealth,

not pieces of paper

that are simply ideas

from rich men.

Hey baby.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

You got treatment this

morning, right?

I know, I cancelled it.

Our cards, they declined

last time and the...

the debt people, they've

been calling the house,

so I called the bank and...

I know what's going on.

We're broke, aren't we?

We had all of our money

in that fund and it's...

it's gone, isn't it?

Jim...

Jim, it's okay.

I understand, you... you

were just protecting me.

It'll be okay.

I'm gonna get the money back,

I'm gonna fix this.

Oh God, this has been

so hard on you.

You're getting gray hair and

wrinkles all because of me.

It's gonna be all right,

you're gonna be all right.

No, I'm not.

But it's okay.

I just, I really... I wanted us

to have a baby.

You know I know that he

would look just like you

and I couldn't wish

for anything more.

Baby, don't say that.

We're gonna sell the house...

Jim...

It'll be okay, it's...

I'm calling my lawyer.

Uh, Jim Baxford

for Mr. Patterson.

One moment please.

I uh, I got a letter here saying

they're gonna foreclose on us

and uh, the bank's

cutting us off

all because of this

bullshit real estate.

You offered to waive

my investment

if I knocked off the 60 grand.

but you didn't give me

an answer in time.

If I could've gotten

to them earlier...

I called you back

the same f***ing day.

At the end of a long

Friday after 4 PM,

if I remember correctly.

That means I didn't get back to

them until Monday or Tuesday,

What about this motion

you filed, the relief thing?

The broker you invested

with went bankrupt

their assets were purchasd

by another company,

there's no one to file a

motion against right now

since the broker's in

bankruptcy you need to hire

a bankruptcy attorney to lift a

thing called an automatic stay,

which really is a pain

in the ass.

What about the real estate

company, what about that?

Well they're also under the

protection of bankruptcy court

It's part of the bankruptcy

law that says you can't take

any action against a

company in bankruptcy

without first hiring another

lawyer and getting permission
