You know, Erin, I've been working
at Remson a very long time.
It might surprise you, but...
...people there
respect my opinion.
- Hi.
- I just got your messages.
What kind of problem
do we have?
Naomi, can you just hang on--
Hang on a sec.
- Erin.
- Hold on.
"Hold on"?
Don't tell me to hold on. I'm your boss.
What the hell happened
this time?
Wait, are you still with Ed?
No-.
I'm at my place.
Okay, so...
Erin, I need to know
what's going on here.
Yeah, sorry.
Yeah, so Ed did let go
of a few people last week.
[OVER SPEAKER]
Yes, that was the recommendation.
And?
I know,
but one of them was Marin.
Are you f***ing kidding me?
She is a liability if she starts making
claims about holes in the network.
I know.
Look, I got her number here.
Marin Gold.
Okay, hang on.
Go.
415-555-0192.
Got it.
Well, Erin,
hasn't this been lovely?
What are you gonna do?
With What?
You fired Marin? Now?
Look, it wasn't my call.
Everything is your call.
But we've got it under control.
She got a very nice severance
and Legal had her sign all kinds of sh*t.
Ed, I am extremely
concerned about this.
- I wish you had consulted me before--
- Hey, Naomi, news flash:
I don't work for you.
I ' m
- Let me tell you something.
These doubts and second-guessing,
I'm getting tired of it.
- We've got orders pouring in?
-Yeah, because I've been doing my job.
But it is also
my job to be thorough.
Oh, yeah?
- I thought it was yourjob to be inspiring.
- You know, Ed--

Hello.
CORY:
F*** you!
This must be Cory.
I Googled you!
Of course you did.
You're a f***ing prosecutor?
I'm eager to hear more about
your contact with Dr. Sobel.
- You can talk to my lawyer!
- I look forward to it.

SAM:
We both know your clientcrossed a line.
CAHN:
Heh. Would you look at him?
He works 80 hours a week.
He's a dad, raises money
for leukemia research.
- I mean--
- Oh, I'm sorry.
Does he plant daffodils too?
Well, he's got no history.
He's never been flagged
by you guys or the SEC.
Are you saying
he doesn't know any better?
I have 6-year-old twins
who know better.
When you, your boss and your friends
decide to sabotage a company...
...when you have information
that Joe Investor...
...couldn't possibly have,
and you use that information...
...to profit while Joe Investor loses 65
percent of his retirement fund...
-...you know better.
- Are you gonna charge my client or not?
That depends.
CAHN:
He's not the one you want.
There are bigger fish at Titanite.
SAM:
That's the point.
And he's willing to cooperate?
[NAOMI CLEARS THROAT]
I'd like to thank you all for your patience
as we've been processing...
...this tremendous surge in orders
from institutional investors.
Our book is closed,
and we have our offering price.
Thirty-five.
We just raised $250 million?
Congratulations.
We'll see how the market trades
tomorrow, but I feel very confident.
- Great, great.
- Good work.
Hm?
Where did you get that pen?
Vi
I don't know.
Big pain in the ass.
H6Y-
H6Y-
Cory and I were taking bets on how much
you'd spend on my birthday present.
To many more.
Nice.
[CHUCKLES]
What are you drinking?
SAM:
Like a porcupine?
Hedgehog, but cute, fuzzy. Get it?
Hedge fund, money hog.
-It's a--
- Yeah, I get it. And Benji took it with him?
CORY:
Yep.SAM". So what does the hedgehog mean?
CORY:
I don't know what it means.It's a hedgehog.
These guys just f*** with each other.
Probably doesn't mean anything.
Vi
So, am I done?
Are you f***ing kidding me?
We own you.

Hello?
Marin, it's Naomi Bishop.
Do you understand
what's happening here?
Cachet can sue you.
No, they said they would
take care of that.
Who? Who did?
Are they paying you?
Marin, you need to tell me who--
I'm sorry, I have to go.
Marin.

Hi. I'm Naomi.
I'm a friend of Sam's.
Nice shoes.
Is she home?
Come on. I'll get her.
Thank you.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Hello there.
You must be...
...Sophie and...
And William, right?
I don't talk to strangers.
Oh. Right. Yeah.
Well, it's really your friends
that'll stab you in the back, so...
- Hey. Uh...
-Oh.
What's up?
L----
I want you to tell me
what you know...
...about Michael.
Vi
You've been investigating him?
I can't really comment on that.
Somebody leaked a rumor
about my IPO.
We go public tomorrow,
and somebody--
I know.
The tech blogger
who posted the story...
...he's an old friend of Michael's
from Stanford.
It had to be him, right?
Do you think it was?
Look, as far as this IPO goes...
...we have no specific link
to Michael at this time.
Except you.
Wait, are you saying
I gave him information?
I am not saying anything.
I should go.
Naomi, wait. I can help you.
- Okay, did Michael have access?
- He did not get this from me.
Do you understand?
That is not who I am.
F***.
[DOOR OPENS]
Are you tanking my IPO?
Should I be?
Don't f*** with me, Michael.
Don't f*** with me now.
Did you leak this thing?
Is it true?
It doesn't matter if it's f***ing true!
- You know that. Once the rumors start--
- Hey, hey.
Start your own rumors.
Do you know how
to play this game?
What the f***
is wrong with you?
What did you do?
Did you take my phone?
Are you wearing a wire?
What do you think?
Let's take our clothes off
and find out.
Jesus.
It's all just a big game to you, isn't it?
What else is there?
[SIGHS]
Hey, listen,
whatever happens tomorrow...
...you're gonna be fine.
F***, I don't want to be fine!
I was never supposed to be fine!
I was supposed to be
a motherfucking rainmaker.
Vi
No, that's--
No, that's for PR to handle.
They have a long reach. So...
Hold-- No.
Wait. Hold on.
Tell Ed not to make
a public statement, okay?
I appreciate his enthusiasm, butjust--
Look, wake the f*** up
and call me.
Vi
So this is a big day
for you and your shareholders.
- Absolutely.
-Now, over the last 12 hours...
...reports have surfaced that show
hackers may be attempting...
...to access this secure network.
ED:
So here's the thing.When people hear...
...the word "hackers,"
they get scared.
We're not scared of hackers.
We employ hackers.
- You employ hackers?
IAN:
What--Heh. I think
what Ed means is that there's...
...never been a security breach
of our network.
I'd like to take this moment
to personally reassure our investors.
This morning, I uploaded three photos to
my own profile on the Cachet network.
These photos are of a highly
