You got it. You're directing
The City That Never Sleeps.
I just got the call.
:19:07
I can't believe it.
l... I can't speak.
:19:11
I got you half a million,
plus a tenth of a point
after quadruple break-even.
:19:15
Listen, uh, they're
going back to L.A. tonight.
:19:17
You think you could
meet Ellie for a drink
for ten minutes?
:19:20
- Why?
- Why? Because you owe her
some thanks, that's why.
:19:25
She went out on a limb for you.
I think she wants to make sure
you're both on the same page.
:19:29
Think about Hal Yeager.
He's quick to hire,
quick to fire.
:19:31
You need Ellie
to run interference.
:19:34
All right. All right.
I'll meet her at the-the...
:19:38
Bemelmans Bar at 9:00.
:19:40
I can spare ten minutes.
l-I can't tell ya,
my head's swimming.
:19:45
A tenth of a point
after quadruple break-even.
:19:49
You are really a shark, Al.

:20:08
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
:20:11
Can I get a Beck's, please?
:20:14
Since we're working together,
I thought we should sit down
and talk for a few minutes.
:20:17
[Coughs]
That's fine with me.
:20:19
I mean, as you know, Hal was
a little skeptical at first...
:20:23
but in the end, you know,
he's a businessman
and very professional.
:20:27
Let me set your mind at ease.
You don't have to worry
about everything.
:20:31
Things are gonna go
very smoothly.
:20:34
This is... This is
a big shot for me
and I realize that...
:20:38
you know, many people
think that I'm...
that I can be difficult.
:20:41
But you know I can be
very professional...
:20:43
and obviously, Hal Yeager's
very professional...
:20:46
and you're professional,
clearly.
:20:49
So, you know, as long as
business is business,
there should be no...
:20:53
I cannot understand
how you could leave me
for that cheesy windbag.
:20:57
It's mind-numbing to me.
I just don't understand that.
