He suspended me.
You told him where you got the watch?

Chet gave me a lavish gift.
- A lavish gift.

Someone sold Chet Frank a hot watch.

I'm going to use the phone in the front.
I'm going to clean this up right now.
But she gave me this number.
Mrs. Frank gave me this number.
and it's out of service.
It's out of service.
Thanks.
Their numbers are all out of service.
How come it's out of service
if they gave it to me yesterday?
- Who?
- Zena Frank.
I had a meeting with Jerry.
They've changed the number.
I've ordered $30.000 dollar of the fabric.
I placed an order to Brazil for
$30.000 dollar of the fabric.
Lucy Wise, please.
She's on vacation?
She won't take my call.
I had a meeting with Jerry.
What did you do to screw this up?
- You placed an order to Brazil.
- What did you do to make them act this way?
for $30.000 dollar.
- Yes.
- Why?
Zena told me it was a done deal.
Their were going to use
Where did you get the credit?
- What?
- Where did you get $30.000 dollar credit?
I paid cash.
- What?
- I paid cash.
Are you deaf?
Do you know what's happening to my life, Mike?
Where did you get the cash?
I took out a personal loan for two weeks.
I was going to get the fabric..
We...
I was going to be a part of their company.
You took out a personal loan
for $30.000 dollar for two weeks.
From whom?
It was a done deal.
Yes, but now it's not a done deal.
I wasn't even going to need it
for two weeks, Mike.
They told me, they were writing their cheque.
Who gave you the loan?
Richard gave me the loan.
You borrowed $30.0000 dollar
from a loan shop?
Are you crazy?
She spent it.
She spent it?
- She spent the $30.000 dollar I gave her.
- That's right.
She said she wanted
the money for two weeks.
She spent it.
What the f*** am I going to do?
What can you give me?
How soon could you get it to me?
Richie.
The money isnt mine, Mike.
The money isnt mine...
I gave it out of my word. But I owe
that money to my guys, you understand?
It isnt mine.
What do you own that you could turn to cash?
What do you got what you could liquidate?
Something for you?
It's an Asian-samurai training technique
going back to the 17th century.
Every fighter in the tournament,
each match, each fighter
will pick a marble.
Should he pick a white marble,
he'll be giving a pass.
Should he pick a black marble,
he'll be given a handicap.
So the fighters on the Undercard, each one
could get a handicap? - That's right.
The samurai say that's this..
What do you got what's worth money?
if they might become disabled.
So there you have the Under card,
in the main event we have bad blood..
evidentially between Morisaki and your
brother Ricardo Silva.
Morisaki feels like he's been insulted.
- That is correct, it is.
Unfortunate, but this competition has start into
a grouch match between my brother and Morisaki.
Under the laws of intellectual property,
the copyright
that is the possession of the idea and all
profits from its exploitation belongs to Mr. Terry.
The three marbles.
You can't copyright an idea?
You can't copyright an idea but you can
copyright a particular expression,
which my client has done through use
to exploitation of his system
in order to earn his living.
Into historical form.
- Which idea...
- It's a historical form.
- It's not a historical form. That's nonsense.
- The Japanese..
The idea was discovered in a Japanese
training manual of the 19th century.
You show it to me in one historical document,
we'll pack up and go home.
And you show me were your client
never transcribed ancient...
He has a document of his training regime
that he used for many years in his academy.
So he says,
and I'll give you that.
Who has ever seen this form
outside of his academy?
We can assume that the Silva's
and your client had access.
- The presumption of access.
- You can assume whatever you want.
I believe the courts will conquer the
relationship between the parties being so close.
Is that your case?
Is that you want to roll the dice on?
Are you sure you want to play in this league?
What do they want?
Let's financesialize the problem.
No, no.
Please ask him to wait.
However...
My client is prepared to relinquish.
Today.
To relinquish all rights to his creation.
- In return for what?
- In return for a payment of $200.000 dollar.
- Payable today.
- That's a lot of money.
- It's a great idea.
- It's a good idea.
It's a great idea or why would
you promoting it?
No, ask him to wait.
He's got to wait.
Your name could be here.
You want to make some money?
Fight on the under card. $50.000 dollar.
I saw you fight.
