Bull

I know what brought you here, and it's not money.

It's family.

You want to set something aside for the people you love.

Your children. Their children. Am I right?

Yes.

That's... Absolutely.

I'm the same.

That's why I asked my son

to work with me.

Family is

everything.

We call our firm Safe Harbor Wealth Management,

and that's what it is--

a safe place for your money.

We offer a unique

wealth management strategy with consistent return

over the course...

Excuse us.

Kenneth, we're in a meeting.The FBI is here.

The FBI?They just

showed up, and one of them handed me

this search warrant, and now they're taking things.

They're just taking them.Taking what?

Everything.

This says they can seize

transaction records back ten years.

Dad.Everything's fine.

Kenneth, get Tennenbaum

on the phone. We'll sic the lawyers

on them and sort this out.

I'll talk to him in my office.

Make it the conference room.

Yes, sir.

It's like he just walked away.

Just... left.

He was a coward.

A thief and a coward.

I'm ashamed to call him my father.

The search warrant and raid were to investigate allegations

your father ran a Ponzi scheme out of his business,

is that right?

It's now clear that, for years,

Tim's father pretended to open accounts for clients,

then stole their money.

There were no investments.

How much did he take?The accountants are

still digging, but looks like $300 million,

give or take. He didn't keep

all of it. A lot went to payouts

to keep the scheme going.

That's quite a scheme.

Another $160 million is just... missing.

Apparently, my father hid it.

No one knows where.

Getaway money, I suspect.

That's what we think.

An emergency wallet

in case he had to flee the country.

As it turned out, that's...

not the exit he chose.

So, the feds don't have your dad,

they don't have the money, but they have you.

The FBI arrested Tim last night. The government

is accusing him of conspiring with his father.

And you say you didn't?

I don't say it. I didn't.

I had no idea what my father was doing.

Forgive me, but...

you were partners. You ran the firm together.

He asked me to come work for him after my mother died.

He was lonely.

I thought I was being a good son.

I handled clients,

administration, but Dad did all the investing.

I was as fooled as anyone.

You don't strike me as someone who's easily fooled.

You think I'm rich, so I deserve whatever they throw at me.

We didn't say that.TIMOTHY: You understand

I'm not rich anymore?

The government seized everything we own,

put it in a fund for my father's victims. I get that.

They should be compensated.

But I shouldn't go to prison for something

I didn't do.

Tim.

Give us a minute.

I've known Tim since high school.

I'm representing him despite the fact I invested with his dad.

Tim comes across a little cold,

but he's a good guy. More to the point,

he's not his father.

The feds need somebody to put in jail for this,

and Tim's their best shot.

He doesn't deserve it.

Will you help?

I am going to defer to my partner.

Marissa?

If his assets have been seized,

how does he pay?

His wife's family's footing the bill.

The check will clear.

Then I'm good.

Bull?

I guess we're in.

Thank you.For what?

You said this would be a partnership.

That felt like one.Well...

sometimes I mean what I say,

believe it or not.

Was that Timothy Darcourt that just walked out or here?

Are we taking his case, guys?

Yes, we are, but he has his own attorney.

Well, I'm not so sad to be sitting this one out.

Darcourt is not exactly a popular name these days.

Hello?

Well, he's pleading poverty,

but did you see that shirt?

Must've been $500.

It was $800, actually.If he walks into court

dressed like that, the jury's gonna toss him in a tumbrel

and roll him to the guillotine.

Ah, we can fix that. We'll Sears him up a bit.

Thank you.

We will be right there.Oh.

I believe I have made some rain.

Oh. In what way?

Well, there's a law firm in Chicago

that is looking to work with an east coast partner

on a civil action. Their rep's name

is Jacob Besarotti.

I had a Zoom meeting with him yesterday,

and he's come in to follow up.

I don't know the name, but I like the idea

of extending our brand.

Right. With a little effort, I think we can establish ourselves

as a national player. Hm.

Is that the guy you talked to?

Yes, why?

What are you doing?

Hey, man.

You lied your way in here?

It's not like you gave me a choice.

Okay, we're not doing this. You need to go right now.

Okay, but what if I don't want to?

I don't care. You're going, now.

Make me.

Seriously?Yeah, seriously.

What are you gonna do-- show everyone how tough you are?Oh...

Go ahead. Show everybody how tough you are.

I told you what would happen...I think you should.

Show everybody how big and tough you really are.

I told you...Go ahead. You... Ah, ah, ah!

Bull! Bull!

Bull, come on!

Come on!What?

Is that Jake?

You know him?

Who's Jake?

He's my brother.

Hi.

Oh, come on. Are you kidding me right...

You can't come in here and humiliate my colleagues.

Oh, I'm humiliating you?Well, you come in here...

This is exactly what you do, every single time.

I do it every single time?

You can't take a joke every single time.Because I am not...

The fight is not the point. : Oh, I'm Jason Bull.

Uh, my farts smell like books and I got...You know what you do?

O-Okay. All right, all right, all right!

Just stop it, just stop it.

Just sit. Sit down. Sit.

Do you always fight like this?

Yes.When he'll talk to me.

Okay, well, it ends now.

Jacob.

I'm Izzy. Welcome.

Jason's told me about youDo not believe...

and I'm so glad to finally meet.

I don't care how it happened.

Well, I'm sorry I missed the wedding.

Not that I got invited, but...

Is that why you're here?No.

No, I'm here because you didn't give me a choice.

What do you mean?

I have been here for a week.

I text him, I call him,

I didn't call you because I did not want to see you.

Honestly, I kind of knew that,

so I took it as a challenge, so...

You are so ungrateful

Here he is. I justand so manipulative.

calmed down, and he's giving it...

Okay. We're not doing this again.

Jacob, tomorrow, you're gonna come have dinner at our home

because that's the way I was raised.

That's what you do for family.

It's the minimum you do.

I would be delighted.

Good.

Okay. Well, I will see you tomorrow.
