Me and baby brother

Used to run together

Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah

Welcome one another

Headed for the corner

Hey, hey, yeah

Shiftin' on his mind Is like drinking funky wine

By the river

Chippin' on his mind Is like drinking funky wine …

Brothers for life.

- Marcus? - Mm.

Where are you going?

I'm getting out of here, man. My brother needs me.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

Look at the last email he sent.

"Wish you were here."

"Hit me up if you're ever in New York."

He's got too much pride to admit it, but this is a cry for help.

It feels like you're reading too much into this.

Why don't we see what Matilda thinks?

She says to follow your heart.

Thanks, Matilda.

Goodbye, Keith.

- Here. You take her. - Oh.

She's a very generous lover.

No, you keep her.

You're her rock.

Shit. Where am I?

Time for plan B.

No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no!

I know. I'm worried about him too.

Oh shit.

Whoo!

I'm coming for you, big bro.

- How do I look? - Hmm?

- I should be standing when they come in. - Uh… What do you mean?

These are big-time TV people, Mia. They care about image.

- Right. - What do you think about this?

Coat buttoned.

This.

Oh. Uh…

That… Maybe the legs closer together.

It's too much?

Okay, what if I stand, uh… sideways? You know, head down, thoughtful, solemn.

When they come in, I could--

Rudd… relax.

These people want you on their show because of who you are,

not how you look.

'Cause of the real estate business that you built from the ground up.

You don't have to put on a show for them. You are the show.

- Really? - Absolutely.

And, as your assistant, I have the best seat in the house.

Mia, I couldn't do any of this without you.

- Thank you. - There he is!

- Hey! - There's our superstar.

- Great to see you. - Wow.

Rudd, I forgot how humongous you are in person, brother.

Yeah, he's built like a duplex, isn't he?

Yes. I am terrified of you right now.

- Yeah, you're like a freak from a lab. - Yeah. Way too big.

Big ol' guy.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

So, uh, we gonna do this? Did I make the cut?

Why tell you when we can show you?

- Come on. Have a seat. - Yeah.

This season on NYC Hustlers ,

Hayley Boyajian and Kieran Francis are back.

I have a foot fetish.

A square-foot fetish.

After a battle with brain cancer, my father tragically passed away.

But on the flip side, I sold a condo to his radiologist.

But there's a new agent on the New York scene.

His name is Rudd Landy.

And he didn't come to play nice. He came to close deals.

I built my firm from the ground up, brick by brick, one listing at a time.

Just a chubby kid from New Jersey

with nothing more than a real estate license and a dream.

And if that name sounds familiar to you, it should.

Rudd is the kid brother

of billionaire hedge fund manager and man-about-town …

…Josh Landy.

DJ, philanthropist, money mogul.

He does it all.

In other words,

Rudd has a chip on his shoulder the size of the Big Apple.

I may be the new kid on the block,

but I'll do anything to get out of my big brother's shadow.

Will Rudd remain the one Landy with something to prove?

Find out on this season of NYC Hustlers.

So good.

Look at him, speechless.

He's speechless. Pretty exciting, huh?

Yeah. Um… I don't remember saying that thing about my brother's shadow.

Yeah, you didn't.

We, uh… we used AI to add in some dialogue for you.

Isn't that cool? We do it all the time. It's just temp though. Don't worry.

We have options.

I got these big muscles so I could feel like a big boy,

and not my brother's little bitch for once.

- I love that one. - It's so good. It's so relatable.

I mean, my heart… …aches for you.

Always in second place. Always overlooked.

But now, here's your chance to finally shine.

- Yeah, um-- - No, hey, hey, please. Don't hold back.

We love feedback. Give us feedback.

Uh…

Maybe less Josh, you know? Maybe more me?

- How much less? - Yeah, like, what percent less?

Like, zero, maybe? Like, maybe zero Josh?

And then… and then I'd go up to a hundred.

Right, so you don't wanna be overshadowed by your brother.

Kind of exactly what the intro was saying…

Yep, I'm struggling to see the issue here.

Look, guys… I am super pumped for this opportunity, okay?

I know what being on your show could do for me and do for my firm.

I'll tell you this right now. I will crush this.

Because I am ready to run with the big dogs.

But if this is the angle we're going with,

I'm sorry, I just don't think it's a good fit.

Wow.

- I think what Rudd means-- - Did you feel that, Lenore?

Oh, I felt that. Mm-hmm.

- That's … our angle right there. - Yeah.

That's it. If you can bring that big dog energy to our show,

we won't even need Josh.

- Mm-mm. - I'll bring that energy.

I will be the big dog.

Ah.

No.

- That is a lapdog. - Not what he was trying to give.

Right, big dog?

Right.

Hey, brother. I've been thinking.

It's been a while since we've seen each other,

and I know our schedules haven't really aligned, like, ever.

But I was reading your last email, and I had an epiphany.

At the end, when you said, "see you later," it made me think,

"What if later was right now?"

The thing is, my life is actually pretty great.

-I've been traveling a lot lately. - Whoa!

Spending more time in nature,

making new friends.

Oh, good morning.

You can play through.

Hey. How's everything tasting?

- Oh, are you our waiter? - No, just curious.

Anyway, I know how busy you are, so I'm doing us both a favor.

That's right. I'm coming to see you , big bro!

Whoa!

I was gonna surprise you and show up at your door,

but I was just too damn excited.

Like when you don't jerk it for a week and finally see your girl

and can't even get it out of your pants before busting all over the place.

What the fuck are you doing?

I asked you to watch my laptop while I was in the bathroom.

Hang on one sec, bud. Just in the middle of a thought here.

"Busting all over the place."

Coming to see you, big bro!

Shit.

Hey, Mia. You coming?

From now on, we put all our focus on this show.

- Could be a real game changer for us. - So exciting.

And even if an unexpected distraction were to pop up, we could just--

- Mia, you know I don't like surprises. - Right.

Whatever comes up, I trust you to handle it.

The faster we get going on this thing,

the more damage even the smallest obstacle can present.

Did you know if an F1 racer hits a pebble at full speed,

the car will literally explode?

- It will? - Yeah, it will.

That's why it's your job to get rid of all the pebbles. You were saying?

Um… I was…

I was just saying that, uh,

your car is… is waiting for you outside.

Thought I heard something pretty out there.

Shit.

New York City, here I come!

Woo, woo, dee, dee, dee

Oh yeah.

Oh, look at these cuties.

Brothers!

Deirdre, this event… Wow. It's incredible.

- I'm so proud of you. - Aw! Hey, how was your meeting?

- We start shooting in two days. - What? Are you serious?

Yes.

I'm finally gonna be playing in the big leagues.

I just… I want you to know

that all the sacrifices we've been making as a family,

they are about to pay off big-time.

I am so happy for you.

Okay, better get back to work. I still have more asses I need to kiss.

- Do your thing. Where am I sitting? - Table five. Your brother's there already.

Yes!

He goes, "This is the castle that Castle built."

How do I look? Does my face look puffy? He always points out if my face is puffy.

Rudd, you look great. Okay? All right? I promise.

Clooney and I are drinking buddies.
