The first 200 lines.
They say that Lucifer, the most shining of all the angels,
was God's favorite.
And God loved him more than all the other angels.
Yet when he found out that Lucifer had broken his rules...
I am on my own! Kiss my ass! No no no...
He was pitiless
The United States military has begun to strikes
Against Al-Qaida terrorist training camps
and military installations of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan.
Mom, why isn't daddy coming?
John, you know that daddy has to work. But we'll have fun all the same!
Are you sure there will be sun?
Of course! Because it's your birthday! And that's a very special day.
Are you OK, Aunt Nina?
Yes. And you?
That was the way to the pool! We passed it.
Today no in the pool.
'Cause it's a special day and I'm taking you to a special place.
Sir?
What is so urgent that brings you here on a Sunday?
I need you to see something. About Massimo and his team.
He managed to hack the system to alter the VAR.
You sure Massimo knew about this?
No, but if his team did it on their own that just means he can no longer control them.
In either case, I don't feel you can trust him anymore
If you like I can run it by legal About sacking him
Mrs. Stuart called.
Her children were supposed to be at the pool this morning with your wife, but they never showed.
Mrs. Morgan isn't picking up het phone
I believe the changes will be significant.
In our country there is a certain continuity...
Did you make coffee?
Come in.
So why did you come? I was worried that they had arrested you.
Why?
I heard the investigation is about to be closed. What happened?
Dominic pulled some strings? Or is it a rule -
you, high finance types, are untouchable? Hm?
Yes? I need the time to take a shower and I'll be there. I have to go, I'm sorry.
Yes. Big Daddy calls, you run.
This is something personal
This is because your wife died because of him.
You loved Carrie, didn't you?
Glad to meet you!
Hey. Hey.
I thought it was a dinner with a few friends...
Just do not get cross. We are celebrating! My new exhibition!
They called me today from the Kensington Gallery!
They want to do a one-woman show
Didn't you tell me they were snobby tots?
Yes, they are still snobbydobs.
But they love my art, so I love them
I love you.
Hey!
What aboput the new one? The German girl?
Eleanor Yes! Didn't you tell her to come?
No.
Fucking chauvinists.
Hey what's her name?
If I were you, I would forget about her.
Because I just got married? Because she's a man.
I'll forget about it. What if you like it?
You have to get a tattoo like mine! No no no no.
Yes, she is very sweet. Beautiful, is not it?
You have to do the same! But a great idea! - No...
Tat-too Tat-too Tat-too Tat-too, No! Never! No way!
Tattoo! Tattoo! Tattoo! Tattoo! Come on!
No! I said no! Come on! Tattoo!
You know, I've got one like you too. What do you call it?
Wht, a husband? No dear
That's the last thing I need I too met a guy who invests my money.
Mmmm. Only mine sucks big time.
Why? - "Buy a house somewhere!
Property is a solid investment. Yeah.
"Gays never go bankrupt" And now they've repossessed it
No! The mortgage, what was your guarantee to get it?
The salary? Some other property?
Only my work. I'm a freelance, darling.
I went to the bank and signed a shitload of papers.
Hell of a lot easier than giving a blowjob.
OK. You're all done
What do think? Great, great.
Yes. Yes Yes Yes...
Hey honey. Yes.
Are you coming? What is it?
I’m looking at how many MBS my bank is carrying
It is very interesting!
MBS stands for mortgage-backed securities.
They are bonds guaranteed by mortgages on properties.
They package them together and sell them to other banks as an investment.
Yes. Like when you sign a check over to somebody else.
Exactly. So what's the problem?
The problem is knowing
if the mortgage forming the MBS is going to pay out
Like the one your friend took out, that he can't make the payments on
I have been watching this shit for a while
I'm going to have another dance
Sorry.
Hey!
Good morning sweetheart
We have a problem. Gotta go.
You were right.
The subprimes haven't been covered since 2005.
American banks have been handing out mortgages to everybody and everybody
with no collateral at all
Foreclosure Index shooting full of stars
It's a fucking property bubble. All of which risk turning toxic
Unless...
No! You've lost your mind!
The property mortgage sector is the most solid there is!
Low interest, low risk. It's is the first thing they teach at university
You stick to the trading, let me do the banking.
Yes, boring stuff. I am the one
that takes care of guaranteed income for this bank. Mortgages to be precise!
They were guaranteed?! Now they are turning into junk.
We need to sell all the MBS we are carrying and I mean now,
before it all blows to hell.
If sell now we lose a billion pounds. If we wait - we’ll lose ten.
Dominic, this is madness.
The Board is about to name the new CEO.
You seriously want to risk everything
on the intuition of someone who has only worked here a few years?
We sell.
Good.
The subprime mortgage mess has left millions of Americans struggling the
worst one day point drop since 9/11.
If it weren’t for you, we would have gone down with the subprimes
and Dominic would not have brrn named CEO
You did well. Or perhaps you just got lucky.
Very interesting. Never mind.
Don't let him get to you. He's just being Brit, he still thinks he is part of the colonial empire.
American Home Mortgage Investment Corporation filed for bankruptcy yesterday.
BNP Paribas froze three funds,
and Nothern Rock is requesting special financing from the Bank of England.
I know. A tsunami is coming, and we need to be ready.
What would you like me to do?
Come to my home this evening. I want to introduce you to my wife.
I think you two will get along.
He delivered a speech where he continued to say...
Hey, this is Carrie, I'm out having fun. Leave...
Guys! Dominic invited me to his house!
Fuck off, fuck off! No way! Come on!
To the house? Yes.
He has never invited anyone. Well, none of us anyway.
I think it's for you. Hello.
No, I'm afraid he stepped away from his desk.
Greg? Hey.
Come here. What is it?
Carrie. She is in the hospital. An overdose.
Hey. Hey.
How do you feel?
They've pumped my stomach.
I tried calling you a million times.
I know, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry
What happened?
I'm just a loser.
They've closed my show
I just can’t... Hush, hush, listen to me.
We don't care about them.
You'r really talented.
You are the talented one.
You and I love each other like communicating vessels:
When you get fuller
I empty out.
Shouldn't you be in the hospital with your wife?
Whew! I check upon people I like
When you're head of the trading, you'll learn to do that too.
The position is available. I'm going to recommend your name to the Board.
Do you fully understand, Massimo, what it is that we're selling here at the bank?
Stocks, bonds, financial services...
It's our reputation.
People give us money because they can trust us.
Are you referring to Carrie?
Just consider what’s right for her.
Mr. Morgan is busy. Isn't it Sunday morning.
And he is the one who told me to come here.
Well. You'll have to wait.
Yes. Legal confirms there won't be a problem.
The bank can sack him without fear of reprisal.
Now I get it,
how someone like Massimo Ruggero got to be the bank's youngest head of trading.
By cheating.
Italians have it in their blood, don't they?
You know nothing about Massimo.
Get out.
But we can't... I said get out.
The unemployment rate is getting lower.
But there are still people in the countryside...
Chris came for Nina too? Bank business.
On a Sunday?
Nina is nowhere to be found.
She was supposed to take Ed's kids to the pool, but she's vanished.
She's not answering her phone. Hm.
Do you know what today is?
John's birthday. Yes.
Please help me find her.
Oh! Thank you. So friendly. Hey.
Fuck! some house your boss has!
Fudge. I meant fudge.
