00:00Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for $1.3 billion, just need your signature
00:09to close it.
00:10Boss?
00:11Boss?
00:12What?
00:13Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
00:19What crush?
00:20You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
00:22We've been hunting for her for eight years with no luck.
00:25What if she's married already?
00:26Well yeah, she's incredible.
00:28Of course others would see that too.
00:31Not happening.
00:32Where are you going?
00:38To the racetrack.
00:39Boss!
00:40To the racetrack.
00:41You win!
00:42Yes!
00:43Boss!
01:03The trading system is down!
01:06What?
01:08The trading system is down!
01:12Did you?
01:18The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
01:20The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
01:23All my stop losses are firing like crazy.
01:26We're down a hundred million already.
01:29The computer thinks this is normal.
01:30I can't do anything no matter what I try.
01:32If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
01:35Don't panic.
01:36The boss is here.
01:38Stop staring and get out of the chair.
01:39Go!
01:40Come on.
01:41Yesterday's rate cut didn't make it into our contract.
02:10rate cut didn't make it into our baseline indicators. So the model thinks up is down
02:16and down is up. So naturally it's doing exactly the opposite of what it should.
02:28Boss, even you can't solve it? Sorry, food coma's hitting hard. Mind grabbing me a coke?
02:36Who does she think she's fooling? What does a woman possibly know about all this?
02:41If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately. You're going to eat those words faster
02:44than Jessica's eating those chips.
03:06Relax, people. I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
03:10Go home, get some sleep. And with that, we're gone. Thank you,
03:17boss. You truly are the MVP. All right, let's go, folks. Come on, let her work. Let's go.
03:36You
03:48nailed it.
04:06The model's fixed? The company account. Boss is insane. Fixed the glitch, saved our butts,
04:14and made a killing in one night. Time to update that resume, Tom,
04:18or is all that big talk just hot air? Mark, who is our boss, really?
04:22Hello, this is usual, Tom. Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
04:27Her algorithm is the reason why TB security is a titan. What on earth are we doing during work
04:32hours? And you are? Meet the chairman's son, your new CEO. Of course, his talents have the
04:42board's complete endorsement. And last time I checked,
04:46these are prime trading hours, aren't they? Well, it's actually funny you mentioned that.
04:49You are fired. What?
04:53Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
04:57Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity. Only the best work here.
05:03You made it here on pure talent. You want to talk about mediocrity?
05:08Let's discuss that trust fund that bought your position.
05:13You just hit her? What the hell's wrong with you?
05:16I'm not going to waste my time talking the garbage.
05:18Here is your hush money. Take it and get out. You know what? Here's a little extra.
05:31Use it to buy yourself some makeup and cover up that bruise. No one wants to see that.
05:36Drop it. Just go handle this when she's back.
05:39The board paid insane money for her brain. Jackson didn't have the guts to touch her.
05:44Listen up, everybody. The market is a savage wilderness. It is a dog-eat-dog world. It is
05:50eat or be eaten. You need to be apex predators, not little fluffy performance faking rabbits.
05:59Those will be eaten. But the real alphas, the real rainmakers among you will be rewarded accordingly.
06:08The top of the leaderboard is Caitlyn. Where's my superstar?
06:16That would be me. Caitlyn.
06:20Is this Kayla Twist? Are you a Kayla Twist fan? She has a concert tonight. Would you want to go?
06:26God, yes.
06:27This is perfect. It's perfect. Go now before you're late. And as soon as the concert's over,
06:32clean out your desk because you're fired.
06:34What? Why?
06:36The Nikkei opens during concert hours. You know, I figured a trader wouldn't put Kayla Twist
06:40above making trades. Those numbers must be fake. And who's your boss? I need to meet the clown
06:45that runs this circus.
06:47It's Jessica. She's here.
07:05You are fired.
07:09Move your damn foot and explain what rock you crawled out from under.
07:12Who I am doesn't matter. All that matters is that you are fired.
07:16Are you certain about firing me?
07:17You think you're some unicorn employee that this place will crash and burn without your precious brain?
07:21You wouldn't say that, exactly.
07:22Jessica hasn't slept because she was busy saving us nine figures because of a bug.
07:26Yeah, and we even made a profit.
07:28You expect me to believe that? Her name wasn't even on those reports.
07:31You expect me to believe that? Her name wasn't even on those reports.
07:35So take your headphones and beat it.
07:40Can't trash ruin my shoes.
07:42And to you defenders, finance takes timing and judgment.
07:46And sticking up for her shows that you have neither.
07:49So pack your crap and follow her out the door.
07:52Leave them alone. They have nothing to do with this. I'll go.
07:58What? Is office drama more important than making money now?
08:08Susan.
08:15Boss, she's high up in trading. Firing her out of nowhere might be problematic.
08:22Susan, Susan, Susan.
08:25Look around. Finance is a men's game.
08:28Okay, as far as I'm concerned,
08:29she was just sitting there woman a chair and cashing paychecks.
08:32All right, I did us a favor. We should have squashed that bug a while ago.
08:40Dad, how's it going?
08:42I forgot to mention to you there's this one woman exec you absolutely cannot mess with.
08:50Woman executive? Don't tell me it's...
08:52How many women executives do we have, Susan?
09:00Just two women in executive roles. These are the files.
09:05She's a talent the board paid top dollar for. A quant model. She built it from scratch.
09:11And keeping her is non-negotiable. Our marketing dominance depends on it.
09:15Jesse. Harvard PhD. Star trader.
09:21Dad, are you talking about Jesse?
09:23Jesse. I didn't fire Jesse, did I?
09:25Actually, Jessica. She's our golden goose. Now you need to...
09:29Dad, you just focus on getting better. I'll make sure she stays, all right?
09:35Susan, tell Jesse to come to my office.
09:37Right away.
09:38Pete, honey. Remember our pillow talk? Trading director, one-upping Jessica.
09:46It's time you pay up, lover boy.
09:49Babe, it already took a lot of effort to get you in with those fake credentials.
09:53I know, but couldn't you be a doll and work your magic for me?
09:59I'm not a doll, honey. I'm not a doll.
10:01I'm not a doll, honey. I'm not a doll.
10:03I'm not a doll, honey. I'm not a doll.
10:05I'm not a doll, honey. I'm not a doll.
10:07Work your magic for me.
10:09We've got a new CEO. Let's lay low for a while.
10:15Keep your nose clean, will ya?
10:20Of course.
10:27Pathetic. Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
10:34Come in.
10:35Jesse. Emergency. New boss just asked Jessica.
10:38What? Wait, he fired Jessica?
10:41God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
10:43He wants you to go see him now.
10:45Am I up next on the chopping block?
11:00You needed something, Jackson?
11:02Jesse, you're right. Damn, looking good.
11:05Thanks.
11:06Word is, our quant trading model is crushing market averages.
11:11I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
11:13Wait, that's Jessica's work. How does he not know this?
11:18Absolutely. Jackson, I actually pulled multiple all-nighters designing that solo.
11:24You see, I have pure talent, unlike some people who climb the corporate ladder using connections.
11:36You're referring to Jessica, right?
11:39I already fired that corporate parasite.
11:42I need your model because our fund is launching,
11:44and I need it to deliver and maximize company profits.
11:46Don't worry, Jackson. With Jessica out of the way,
11:49I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
11:50That's what I like to hear.
11:52That Jesse's everything Frank promised, sir. Smart and easy on the eyes.
11:57Hardly remarkable. Let's hire Miss J. I won't need her anymore.
12:01Miss J?
12:02Miss J is a trading prodigy I met online.
12:03She's the unrivaled queen of the securities trading market.
12:07So that's why Jesse doesn't measure up. You've already got someone else in mind.
12:11Always two steps ahead, Susan.
12:14I'm not sure I'm ready for this.
12:16I'm not sure I'm ready for this either.
12:18Always two steps ahead, Susan.
12:22Susan, do you see an issue here? Coffee. Always. Right here.
12:26Unbelievable.
12:30Miss J, you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
12:33Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
12:49Boss, we have an emergency. Your wife's in serious trouble.
13:01Are you crazy? I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
13:04Don't go around calling her that.
13:06You told me to call her that. Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
13:10Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
13:12Wait, hold on. You found Jessica?
13:14We got her. She's running trading at TV Securities.
13:17Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
13:20Fired her? She's brilliant. How could she get fired?
13:23Something's off here.
13:25Let's go get her. This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in,
13:28be the hero, confess your feelings.
13:30You idiot.
13:34You idiot. This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
13:39Seeing each other every day, I'll finally get my shot with her.
13:43Boss, snap out of it. She's in security trading.
13:46Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
13:49So we'll buy one.
14:04This office is all mine now.
14:14Broke much?
14:16Disgusting.
14:24Jessica's Jackson's dream girl, Mrs. J?
14:29Jackson fired Jessica.
14:32No one knows who she really is.
14:34I can take advantage of this.
14:42Jesse, what do you think you're doing?
14:45I'm not doing anything.
14:52Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for 1.3 billion.
14:55Just need your signature to close it.
14:59Boss? Boss?
15:01What?

15:42You win.
15:43Yes.
15:48Boss, the trading system is down.
15:55What?
15:55The trading system is down.
15:58We need you.
16:05The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
16:07The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
16:10All my soft boxes are firing like crazy.
16:13We're down 100 million already.
16:15The computer thinks this is normal.
16:17I can't do anything no matter what I try.
16:19If we do this for another hour, we're gonna be filing for Chapter 11.
16:23Don't panic.
16:24The boss is here.

17:36Here you go, boss.
17:44Hmm.
17:53Relax, people.
17:54I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
17:57Go home, get some sleep.
18:01And with that, we're gone.
18:04Thank you, boss.
18:04You truly are the MVP.
18:07All right, let's go, folks.
18:08Come on, let her work.
18:09Let's go.
18:14You.
18:35Nailed it.
18:43Oh.
18:55The model's fixed?
18:57The company account.
18:58Boss is insane.
18:59Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
19:03Time to update that resume, Tom.
19:05Or was all that big talk just hot air?
19:07Mark, who is our boss, really?
19:10Clueless as usual, Tom.
19:11Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
19:14Her algorithm is the reason why TB's security is a titan.
19:17What on earth are we doing during work hours?
19:22And you are?
19:23Meet the chairman's son.

20:24Does school handle this when she's back?

24:00Our marketing dominance depends on it.
24:02Jessie, Harvard PhD, Star Trader.
24:08Dad, are you talking about Jessie?
24:10Jessie.
24:11I didn't fire Jessie, did I?
24:13Actually, Jessica.
24:14She's our golden goose.

24:22Susan, tell Jessie to come to my office.
24:24Right away.
24:34Pete, honey, remember our pillow talk?
24:37Trading director, one-upping Jessica.
24:42It's time you pay up, lover boy.
24:45Babe, it already took a lot of effort
24:47to get you in with those fake credentials.
24:49I know, but couldn't you be a doll

25:02Keep your nose clean, will ya?

25:08All right.
25:15Pathetic.
25:16Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
25:21Come in.
25:23Jessie.
25:25Emergency.
25:25New boss just asked Jessica.
25:27What?
25:28Wait, he fired Jessica?
25:29God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
25:31He wants you to go see him now.
25:33Am I up next on the chopping block?
25:38Okay.
25:41God.
25:44You needed something, Jackson?
25:50Jessie, you all right?
25:52Damn, looking good.
25:53Thanks.
25:54Word is, our quant trading model
25:56is crushing market averages.
25:59I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
26:01Wait, that's Jessica's work.
26:03How does he not know this?
26:06Absolutely.
26:07Jackson, I actually pulled multiple all-nighters
26:12designing that solo.
26:14You see, I have pure talent,
26:18unlike some people who climb the corporate ladder
26:21using connections.
26:26You're referring to Jessica, right?
26:28I already fired that corporate parasite.
26:31I need your model because our fund is launching
26:33and I need it to deliver and maximize company profits.
26:36Don't worry, Jackson.
26:37With Jessica out of the way,
26:38I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
26:40That's what I like to hear.
26:41All right, get going.
26:42Clock's ticking.
26:43I'm on it.
26:44That Jessie's everything Frank promised, sir.
26:48Smart and easy on the eyes.
26:51Hardly remarkable.
26:52Let's hire Miss J.
26:53I won't need her anymore.
26:55Miss J?
26:56Miss J is a trading prodigy I met online.
26:58She's the unrivaled queen
26:59of the securities trading market.
27:01So that's why Jessie doesn't measure up.
27:03You've already got someone else in mind.
27:05Always two steps ahead, Susan.
27:09Susan, do you see an issue here?
27:11Coffee, always, right here.
27:13Unbelievable.
27:17Miss J, you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
27:20Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
27:43Boss, we have an emergency.
27:44Your wife's in serious trouble.
27:45Are you crazy?
27:47I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
27:49Ah, don't go around calling her that.
27:51You told me to call her that.
27:53Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
27:55Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
27:57Wait, hold on.
27:58You found Jessica?
27:59We got her.
28:00She's running trading at TV Securities.
28:02Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
28:05Fired her?
28:05She's brilliant.
28:06How could she get fired?
28:08Something's off here.
28:09Let's go.
28:10Something's off here.
28:12Let's go get her.
28:13This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in, be the hero, confess your feelings.
28:17You idiot.
28:21You idiot.
28:22This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
28:26Seeing each other every day, I'll finally get my shot with her.
28:30Boss, snap out of it.
28:31She's in security trading.
28:33Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
28:36So we'll buy one.
28:40So we'll buy one.
28:51This office is all mine now.
29:01Broke much?
29:03Disgusting.
29:10Jessica's Jackson's dream girl, Mrs. J?
29:16Jackson fired Jessica.
29:19And no one knows who she really is.
29:22I can take advantage of this.
29:29Jesse, what do you think you're doing?
29:32Hey, boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for 1.3 billion.
29:43Just need your signature to close it.
29:46Boss.
29:48Boss.
29:48What?
29:50Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
29:53What crush?
29:54You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
29:56We've been hunting for her for eight years with no luck.
29:59What if she's married already?
30:00Well, yeah, she's incredible.
30:03Of course, others would see that, too.
30:05Not happening.
30:11Where are you going?
30:12To the racetrack.
30:13Boss.
30:16To the racetrack.
30:29You win.
30:30Yes.
30:36Boss, the trading system is down.
30:42What?
30:42The trading system is down.
30:45We need you.
30:52The system is still placing counter-trend orders.
30:55The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
30:58All my stop losses are firing like crazy.
31:00We're down 100 million already.
31:03The computer thinks this is normal.
31:04I can't do anything no matter what I try.
31:06If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
31:10Don't panic.
31:11The boss is here.
31:20Stop staring and get out of the chair.
31:21Go.
31:22Go.
31:30Go.
31:44Yesterday's rate cut didn't make it into our baseline indicators.
31:47So the model thinks up is down and down is up.
31:51So naturally, it's doing exactly the opposite of what it should.
32:00Boss, even you can't solve it?
32:03Sorry, food coma's hitting hard.
32:06Mind grabbing me a Coke?
32:11Who does she think she's fooling?
32:12What does a woman possibly know about all this?
32:15If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately.
32:16You're going to eat those words faster than Jessica's eating those chips.
32:23Here you go, boss.
32:31Hmm.
32:40Relax, people.
32:41I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
32:44Go home.
32:45Get some sleep.
32:48And with that, we're gone.
32:51Thank you, boss.
32:51You truly are the MVP.
32:54All right, let's go, folks.
32:55Come on, let her work.
32:56Let's go.
33:01You.
33:22Nailed it.
33:30Oh.
33:42The model's fixed?
33:44The company account.
33:45Boss is insane.
33:47Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
33:50Time to update that resume, Tom.
33:52Or was all that big talk just hot air?
33:54Mark, who is our boss, really?
33:57This is usual, Tom.
33:58Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
34:01Her algorithm is the reason why TB's security is a titan.
34:04What on earth are we doing during work hours?
34:09And you are?
34:10Meet the chairman's son.
34:12Your new CEO.
34:14Of course, his talents have the board's complete endorsement.
34:18And last time I checked, these are prime trading hours, aren't they?
34:22Well, it's actually funny you mentioned that.
34:23You are fired.
34:25What?
34:26Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
34:32Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
34:36Only the best work here.
34:39You made it here on pure talent.
34:40You want to talk about mediocrity?
34:42Let's discuss that trust fund that bought your position.
34:45Oh.
34:47You just hit her?
34:49What the hell's wrong with you?
34:50I'm not going to waste my time talking to garbage.
34:56Here is your hush money.
35:00Take it and get out.
35:02You know what?
35:04Here's a little extra.
35:06Use it to buy yourself some makeup and cover up that bruise.
35:08No one wants to see that.
35:10Drop it.
35:11Does school handle this when she's back?
35:14The board paid insane money for her brain.
35:16Jackson wouldn't have the guts to touch her.
35:18Listen up, everybody.
35:20The market is a savage wilderness.
35:22It is a dog-eat-dog world.
35:24It is eat or be eaten.
35:26You need to be apex predators, not little, fluffy, performance-faking rabbits.
35:33Those will be eaten.
35:35But the real alphas, the real rainmakers among you will be rewarded accordingly.
35:47Top of the leaderboard is Caitlyn.
35:52Where's my superstar?
35:54That would be me.
35:55Caitlyn.
35:58Is this Kayla Twist?
36:00Are you a Kayla Twist fan?
36:01You know, she has a concert tonight.
36:03Would you want to go?
36:04God, yes.
36:05This is perfect.
36:05It's perfect.
36:06Go now before you're late.
36:08And as soon as the concert's over, clean out your desk because you're fired.
36:12What?
36:13Why?
36:13The Nikkei opens during concert hours.
36:15You know, I figured a trader wouldn't put Kayla Twist above making trades.
36:20Those numbers must be fake.
36:21Who's your boss?
36:22I need to meet the clown that runs this circus.
36:25It's Jessica.
36:26She's here.
36:42You are fired.
36:46Move your damn foot and explain what rock you crawled out from under.
36:49Who I am doesn't matter.
36:51All that matters is that you are fired.
36:53Are you certain about firing me?
36:54You think you're some unicorn employee that this place will crash and burn without your precious brain?
36:58You wouldn't say that, exactly.
37:00Jessica hasn't slept because she was busy saving us nine figures because of a bug.
37:04Yeah, and we even made a profit.
37:06You expect me to believe that?
37:07Her name wasn't even on those reports.
37:09So take your headphones and beat it.
37:14Can't trash ruin my shoes.
37:16And to you defenders, finance takes timing and judgment.
37:21And sticking up for her shows that you have neither.
37:23So pack your crap and follow her out the door.
37:26Leave them alone.
37:27They have nothing to do with this.
37:29I'll go.
37:32What?
37:32Is office drama more important than making money now?
37:42Susan!
37:45Susan!
37:50Boss, she's high up in trading.
37:53Firing her out of nowhere might be problematic.
37:57Susan, Susan, Susan.
37:59Look around.
38:00Finance is a men's game.
38:02Okay, as far as I'm concerned, she was just sitting there warm in a chair and cashing paychecks.
38:06All right, I did us a favor.
38:07We should have squashed that bug a while ago.
38:10Dad, how's it going?
38:12I forgot to mention to you there's this one woman exec you absolutely cannot mess with.
38:20Woman executive?
38:22Don't tell me it's...
38:26How many women executives?
38:27Do we have Susan?
38:30Just two women in executive roles.
38:33These are the files.
38:34She's a talent the board paid top dollar for.
38:36A quant model.
38:37She built it from scratch and keeping her is non-negotiable.
38:42Our marketing dominance depends on it.
38:44Jesse, Harvard PhD, Star Trader.
38:50Dad, are you talking about Jesse?
38:52Jesse.
38:53I didn't fire Jesse, did I?
38:54No, actually, Jessica.
38:56She's our golden goose.
38:57Now you need to...
38:58Dad, you need to...
38:59Dad, I need to talk to you.
39:00Dad, I need to talk to you.
39:01Dad, I need to talk to you.
39:02Dad, I need to talk to you.
39:04You just focus on getting better.
39:05I'll make sure she stays, all right?
39:10Susan, tell Jesse to come to my office.
39:12Right away.
39:21Pete, honey, remember our pillow talk?
39:24Trading director, one-upping Jessica.
39:29It's time you pay up, lover boy.
39:32Babe, it already took a lot of effort to get you in with those fake credentials.
39:36I know, but couldn't you be a doll and work your magic for me?
39:43We've got a new CEO.
39:45Let's lay low for a while.
39:49Keep your nose clean, will you?
39:54Of course.
39:55All right.
40:02Pathetic.
40:03Time to upgrade my meal ticket.
40:08Come in.
40:10Jesse!
40:12Emergency!
40:13New boss just asked Jessica.
40:14What?
40:15Wait, he fired Jessica?
40:16God, is he suicidal or just stupid?
40:19He wants you to go see him now.
40:20Am I up next on the chopping block?
40:25Okay.
40:28God.
40:31You needed something, Jackson?
40:37Jesse, you all right?
40:39Damn, looking good.
40:40Thanks.
40:41Word is, our quant trading model is crushing market averages.
40:46I don't say this often, but I am impressed.
40:48Wait, that's Jessica's work.
40:50How does he not know this?
40:53Absolutely!
40:55Jackson, I actually pulled multiple all-nighters designing that solo.
41:01You see, I have pure talent.
41:05Unlike some people who climb the corporate ladder using connections.
41:13You're referring to Jessica, right?
41:15I already fired that corporate parasite.
41:18I need your model because our fund is launching,
41:21and I need it to deliver and maximize company profits.
41:23Don't worry, Jackson.
41:24With Jessica out of the way, I'll get that updated model to you in no time.
41:27That's what I like to hear.
41:28All right, get going, clock's ticking.
41:30I'm on it.
41:33That Jesse's everything Frank promised, sir.
41:36Smart and easy on the eyes.
41:38Hardly remarkable.
41:39Let's hire Miss J. I won't need her anymore.
41:42Miss J?
41:43Miss J is a trading prodigy I met online.
41:45She's the unrivaled queen of the securities trading market.
41:48So that's why Jesse doesn't measure up.
41:50You've already got someone else in mind.
41:52Always two steps ahead, Susan.
41:56Susan, do you see an issue here?
41:58Coffee!
41:58Always, right here.
42:00Unbelievable.
42:04Miss J, you're the only woman who deserves to be my equal.
42:07Join TV and I'll hand you the entire company.
42:29Boss, we have an emergency.
42:31Your wife's in serious trouble.
42:32Are you crazy?
42:34I haven't even confessed to Jessica yet.
42:36Don't go around calling her that.
42:38You told me to call her that.
42:40Eight years of this secret crush, still no action.
42:42Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm...
42:44Wait, hold on.
42:45You found Jessica?
42:46We got her.
42:47She's running trading at TV Securities.
42:49Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
42:51Fired her?
42:52She's brilliant.
42:53How could she get fired?
42:55Something's off.
42:56I don't know.
42:57Something's off here.
42:59Let's go get her.
43:00This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in, be the hero, confess your feelings.
43:05You idiot.
43:08You idiot.
43:09This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
43:13Seeing each other every day, I'll finally get my shot with her.
43:17Boss, snap out of it.
43:19She's in security trading.
43:20Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
43:24So we'll buy one.
43:27Okay.
43:38This office is all mine now.
43:48Broke much?
43:50Disgusting.
43:56Jessica is Jackson's drinker? Mrs. J?
44:01Jackson fired Jessica.
44:04And no one knows who she really is.
44:07I can take advantage of this.
44:15Jesse! What do you think you're doing?
44:26Hey boss, we locked in the SkyEdge tech acquisition for 1.3 billion. Just need your signature to close it.
44:33Boss? Boss?
44:35What?
44:36Don't tell me you're looking at pictures of your crush Jessica again.
44:39What crush? You're looking at the future Mrs. Clooney.
44:43We've been hunting for her for eight years with no luck. What if she's married already?
44:47Well yeah, she's incredible. Of course others would see that too.
44:51Not happening.
44:57Where are you going?
44:59To the racetrack.
45:00Boss!
45:03To the racetrack.
45:16You win!
45:17Yes!
45:19Boss! The trading system is down.
45:25What?
45:26The trading system is down. We need you.
45:35The system is still placing counter-trend orders. The more the market rises, the faster we're selling.
45:40All my stop losses are firing like crazy.
45:43We're down 30 percent.
45:45The computer thinks this is normal. I can't do anything no matter what I try.
45:48If we do this for another hour, we're going to be filing for Chapter 11.
45:52Don't panic. The boss is here.
46:02Stop staring and get out of the chair. Go!
46:16Chapter 11
46:30Yesterday's rate cut didn't make it into our baseline indicators.
46:33So the model thinks up is down and down is up.
46:37So naturally it's doing exactly the opposite of what it should.
46:46Chapter 12
46:49Boss, even you can't solve it?
46:52Sorry. Food coma's hitting hard. Mind grabbing me a Coke?
46:59Who does she think she's fooling? What does a woman possibly know about all this?
47:03If she fixes it, I'll quit immediately.
47:05You're going to eat those words faster than Jessica's eating those chips.
47:12Here you go, boss.
47:16Chapter 13
47:27Relax, people. I just got to reset one more parameter and we're golden.
47:31Go home. Get some sleep.
47:35And with that, we're gone.
47:37Thank you, boss. You truly are the MVP.
47:40All right. Let's go, folks. Come on. Let her work. Let's go.
47:45Chapter 14
48:09Nailed it.
48:16Chapter 15
48:29The model's fixed?
48:30The company account.
48:31Boss is insane. Fixed the glitch, saved our butts, and made a killing in one night.
48:36Time to update that resume, Tom. Or was all that big talk just hot air?
48:40Mark, who is our boss, really?
48:43Clueless as usual, Tom. Jessica wrote our quant trading model from scratch.
48:48Her algorithm is the reason why TB Security is a titan.
48:51What on earth are we doing during work hours?
48:55And you are?
48:56Meet the chairman's son. Your new CEO.
49:00Of course, his talents have the board's complete endorsement.

49:11Fire?
49:14Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
49:19Here at TB, we do not tolerate mediocrity.
49:22Only the best work here.
49:25You made it here on pure talent. You want to talk about mediocrity?
49:29Let's discuss that trust fund that bought your position.
49:34Did you just hit her? What the hell's wrong with you?
49:37I'm not going to waste my time talking the garbage.
49:42Here is your hush money.
49:46Take it and get out.
49:49You know what? Here's a little extra.
49:52Use it to buy yourself some makeup and cover up that bruise. No one wants to see that.
49:57Drop it. Just go handle this when she's back.
50:00The board paid insane money for her brain.
50:03Jackson wouldn't have the guts to touch her.
50:05Listen up, everybody. The market is a savage wilderness.
50:09It is a dog-eat-dog world. It is eat or be eaten.
50:13You need to be apex predators.
50:16Not little, fluffy, performance-faking rabbits.
50:20Those will be eaten.

52:27Susan!

52:45Look around. Finance is a men's game.

57:31Look, nothing bad can happen to her when I'm- Wait, hold on. You found Jessica?
57:35We got her. She's running trading at TV Securities. Well, she was until the new CEO stepped in and fired her.
57:40Fired her? She's brilliant. How could she get fired? Something's off here.
57:45Let's go get her. This is the perfect opportunity for you to step in, be the hero, confess your feelings.
57:51You idiot. You idiot. This is the perfect opportunity to bring her on my team.
58:00Seeing each other every day, I'll finally get my shot with her.
58:04Boss, snap out of it. She's in security trading. Clooney Financial doesn't even have a brokerage division.
58:10So we'll buy one.
58:22This office is all mine now.
58:32Ugh. Broke much? Disgusting.
58:43Jessica's Jackson's drinker? Mrs. J?
58:46Jackson fired Jessica. And no one knows who she really is. I can take advantage of this.
58:59Jesse, what do you think you're doing?
