from the bankruptcy court.

It's complicated!

Why didn't you tell me

this before?

Why'd I f***ing hire you?

I haven't heard from

you in 2 weeks

and certainly wasn't privy to

the inner financial workings

The bankruptcy filings were

just as much a surprise to me.

So let me give you

my best advice...

pay the 60 grand,

I'll file the same injunctive

relief motion we talked about

to try and prevent you

from having to pay

and I won't ask your for any

more money from you for me.

How's that sound?

I don't have 60 grand.

Jim, I'll get this one.

Call me later...

This is all my fault.

No, I got sick and I put

us in debt.

It's not your fault, it's

the banks, the CEO's,

Jim, I just... I hate what

this is doing to you.

I'm sorry.

I gotta go to work.

Jim... Jim...

Andy, you wanted to see me?

Yeah, come on in.

Close the door please.

Jim... we've been contacted

by a couple of lawyers

and collection agencies in

the last couple of days...

it seems that you have

a lot of debts...

It's not what you think.

They've got a judgment

against you,

a lien to garnish your

wages on a monthly basis.

How much?

You keep 800 per month.

Right, um... let me speak

to my lawyer

before you give these

guys anything.

Jim, I'm sorry but we're gonna

have to let you go.

We cannot have employees that

are having financial troubles

protecting our money.

You get what I mean?

We're a bonded firm,

we'll lose our insurance,

we'll lose our clients...

we just can't have

you working here,

not under these conditions.

Think of how it looks,

and it's not good.

Severance...

What about my insurance?

You can do COBRA

on the insurance.

That's 600 a month, how

can I keep her alive on that?

The check is your

official severance,

but we owe you back pay,

overtime...

you put in a lot of hours and

you've been a loyal employee,

so instead of a check I had

them issue it in cash.

It's a bit of a bump, 9,000.

Cash is better, I figure

banks and collections

will never know,

just between us.

I appreciate that.

And I'm gonna need your weapon

and employee ID too.

Jim... hey man, listen...

I'm sorry, I didn't know!

I can't answer the phone

right now,

just leave a message.

Have a good day.

Hey Jim what's up,

it's Sean.

Look, I didn't know it was

gonna happen, all right?

I'm really sorry.

I love you bro,

please give me a call.

Rosie?

Rosie?

Rosie?

Rosie... Baby...

Baby?

Oh my God, baby...

Oh my God, oh no... Rosie?

Rosie...

911...

Rosie, Rosie...

God visits us with

many mysteries in life,

unexpected death is

the most challenging.

when God leaves us speechless

in the face of death,

he reminds us all we have

is forgiveness.

We must set our anger aside

and look to those

whom we have lost,

to found a better life.

For who is God,

except the lord,

and who is a rock

besides our God?

The god who girdles

me with strength

and made my way safe.

He made my feet like

the feet of a deer

and set me secure

on the heights.

He trains my hands for war

so that my arms can

bend a bow of bronze,

you have given me the

shield of your salvation

and your right hand

has supported me.

Your help has made me great,

you gave me a wide place

for my steps under me

and my feet did not slip.

I pursued my enemies

and overtook them,

and did not turn back

until they were consumed.

I struck them down so that

they were not able to rise,

they fell under my feet

for you girdled me with

strength for the battle.

You made my assailants

sink under me,

you made my enemies

turn their backs to me

and those who hated me,

I destroyed.

Hey, you've got

Jim and Rosie.

We're not home right now

but leave a message

and we'll call you right back.

Hey Jim, it's Sean.

Uh, you're not answering

your cell,

are you all right?

I don't really know

what to say but uh,

I'm just thinking of you bro.

I hope you're okay,

I love you.

Please call.

Hey, you've got Jim and Rosie.

We're not home right now

but leave a message

and we'll call you right back.

Hey Jim, it's Fred

and Frank.

Listen bud, we'd love to get

together for lunch sometime.

We'll come over some

night, watch the game,

do some serious drinking.

We miss you, pal.

Well done, well done!

Thank you to my

lovely secretary

who's been working so hard.

I think after last week...

Mr. Marwood is

extremely busy!

It's lovely!

Well maybe it's time

for some of us

to stumble home.

Have a good weekend guys,

you deserve it!

Hello?

John, what?

Come on John, it's too late

for that stuff.

No, I really don't wanna

talk about this right now,

can you just please call me

tomorrow morning?

All right, all right thank

you.

Mr. Marwood, I'm Jim Baxford.

Yeah.

I left you a bunch of messages,

20 to be exact.

I, uh... I'm off the clock

you know, if you wanna talk...

I lost my life savings.

My house, my job, my wife...

Look Jim, it is not my fault

your wife left you, all right?

She didn't leave me,

she's dead.

Oh for f***... come on man.

I'm telling you...

Just get off of me!

in the stability of the

American economy cuts across

the entire political spectrum.

For decades, America

has been enjoying

unprecedented economic

growth but unfortunately

that growth was fueled

by a mountain of debt

and now those bills are

starting to come due.

As the economic

collapse intensifies,

opinions vary on how to

stop the downward spiral.

Call this crisis by

any other name,

it's still the same

old game...

the rich still get richer

and the poor get poorer.

Thank you everyone

and good night,

from New York News 7.

Wow, Dan!

This is amazing!

How did you do that?

You know it was really easy

with the new mortgage

incentive rate...

So it looks great, we

got rid of everything.

That's great, fantastic.

And you think that's going

to be enough?

Absolutely, the bank

will look great

but our clients... not so much.

Okay, it's the only

play we had...

we took the shot and

it's looking good.

Am I right?

Yeah, you were right

all along.

Okay, well you know...

that's what I like

to hear, you know?

They can destroy companies

and even countries

with financial

rating downgrades.

They can effectively...

...The latest Wall Street firm

to receive federal money

The question them becomes...

Like many other

financial institutions,

Leman Brothers got caught

in this financial storm.

The real estate superfund,

which was one of the

hottest products...

7.7 trillion in undisclosed

funds from the Federal Reserve

for struggling financial

institutions.

We will be watching

very carefully...

there are those that believe

the government does

have a role to play...

I want to be very clear,

I take full responsibility

for the decisions that I made

and for the actions

that I took.

JP Morgan Chase won

and will assume $31 billion

in won losses.

The loans came with virtually

no strings attached.

However, eventually the
