Hi.
What's with the girls?
It's a little pick-me-up for Vince.
What better way to get over a breakup
than a $1,500 wake-up call?
Come on, guys? Hookers?
He needs to get out of bed, not stay in it.
They're not hookers, E. They're entrepreneurs.
Yeah, E, don't be sexist.
These girls own their own company.
It's called "Breakfast In Bed."
One girl massages while the other one feeds you.
And the other one even reads to you.
They have a nice selection of books, too.
And all the day's periodicals.
Any sign of Vince?
No, but I heard what sounded like weeping
coming from his room this morning.
- Some day, huh? - Why, what else?
I guess Ari's really done at the agency.
Says here security escorted him out.
Wow!
Oh, man, I hope this doesn't affect my status over there.
I'm sure you're still their least important client, Drama. Don't worry.
- Our world is crumbling. - Yeah, might as well drink then, huh?
- How can you stay so calm? - Ah, come on, guys, chin up.
If Vince ain't doing "Aquaman," you guys don't need to worry.
Vince is doing "Aquaman." Believe me.
When he wakes up he'll realize what he was saying was nuts.
Even Vince isn't that crazy.
Just in case he is, don't worry.
- You guys are covered. - Yeah, how?
Saigon's showcase.
This kid's gonna be a star. Guaranteed.
Once he blows up, we're on easy street.
- You better make that a double, Drama. - I better call my agent.
- What's up? - Mornin'.
- Yo. - What's up, guys?
Hey, shouldn't you be gettin' oiled up?
Uh, yeah, guys, I appreciate the gesture but I sent the girls home.
- What? - Vince, we prepaid that shit.
Hey, E, did you track down Ari?
Yep.
Jesus.
Did you tell him I'm not doing "Aquaman"?
- I can't find him. - Well, you better go find him.
Vince, you're not quitting, all right?
You start shooting in three days.
Well, that's why you better tell him soon.
I'm gonna go walk on the beach.
I'm gonna end up living back by the freeway.
All right, everybody stop your fuckin' whining.
Drama, stop your drinking,
'cause we gotta drive one of these invites over to Dr. Dre.
- Let's go. - Why do I have to stop drinking?
Last time I checked, Mr. Rap mogul,
you were still a driver.
Yeah, hi. Adam Davies' office, please.
Vince, can we talk about this?
E, thanks.
I don't need to talk. I need to walk.
Listen, Vince, it hurts, I know.
I've been there, all right?
You will get over Mandy. This will pass.
Good.
So that's it? Game over?
Yeah.
I thought we make these decisions together.
No, not this one.
Please don't try and make me feel guilty about it.
I'm not trying to make you feel guilty, all right?
I'm just seriously concerned about our future.
You don't understand.
I feel like I got shot.
No, Vince, you don't understand.
We may never get an opportunity like this again.
Whose future are you really concerned about?
- Ours or yours? - Are you fuckin' serious?
Yeah. I am. 'Cause I'm not doing this movie.
And if you can't understand why, you better think about
whether you want to be a part of my future.
Eric, unless I spread a false rumor that Mandy has genital warts,
there is no way for me to spin this in Vincent's favor!
I can't hear you when you're yelling at me.
- Just go work your magic. - I'm a publicist,
not David Blaine. Now what the fuck did you say to him?
- He doesn't listen to me. - Then what's he pay you for?
Yeah, good question.
Hi.
I've been trying to get you on the phone for 12 hours.
I want you and Vince to know
everything is under control, all right?
I am fully functional, and I'm setting up my own shop.
That's great. Mandy and Chris got back together.
- Jesus Christ. - He wants off the movie.
I'm already having a bad day. Come on!
You gotta call Cameron.
Don't go soft on me now. Come on, we're at a life crossroads here.
- I've done all I can do. - You've done all you can do?
What the fuck does that mean? What, you want to quit too?
Actually, I think I might, yeah.
E, the garbage man who wins the lottery
does not throw out the ticket.
You know what, fuck you. Call Cameron.
Fuck you! You call!
If you want to work with Vince again, you'll call. It's that simple.
No one will want to work with Vince if I call.
You think he was cold three months ago?
After this, I won't be able to put him in an ifilm.
You tell him that directly, okay? I tried.
- What are you gonna do? - I'll figure something out.
No, you won't.
'Cause you're fucked.
Do you even know how fucked you are?
I mean, you are so fucking fucked.
I think you're the most fucked person I know.
Shit. Here comes the wife. Just pretend like it's all good.
- You didn't tell your wife? - No. When the time is right, yeah.
It's on the cover of "Variety."
She doesn't read "Variety." She reads "In Style."
- Hey, baby. - Why aren't you at work?
- Uh, l-I overslept. - Hey.
- So what's in the gym bag? - Uh, it's a kilo of blow.
- What's with all the fucking questions? - He's showing off for you.
Say goodbye to that Maserati.
I see a shiny new Vespa in your future.
Good luck in the Indy 500.
- Morning, E. - Morning, Lloyd.
Don't say good morning to him.
- Where to? - Malibu. Pronto, Tonto.
Eric, you know you guys are gonna make up.
Vince can't last five minutes without you.
It's not even about that.
- I'm almost 30 years old. - You're not even 29.
Three weeks. And I'm an idiot for putting myself in this position.
I'm pissed at Vince, but I'm more pissed at myself
because it's nuts to tie yourself to one guy,
especially a guy you can't count on.
Eric, you could've never predicted this happening.
Eighth grade he bailed on the great adventure trip
to make ceramic frogs with Jen Naidich.
- The handwriting was on the wall. - He's your best friend.
That's a classic example of why you shouldn't do business with your friends.
- So what are you going to do? - I have no clue.
You know, Ari's right. I'm so fucked.
You are not so fucked.
Eric, what I think you should do is think about
finding a real job in this business,
one with some stability.
Sloan, I'm a college dropout.
Guys in the mailroom out here have Wharton MBAs.
- You have experience. - Not that anyone knows about.
I know some people who know about it.
Maybe I can help.
Positivity, Drama.
You got to learn to find positivity in every situation.
There is no positivity here, Turtle, forget it.
Vince is imploding.
He needs to take on a zen-like approach.
- It's all in the breathing. - So what do we do?
- We gotta let him know he's fucking up. - How?
Silent treatment.
- Good plan. - Are you in or not?
I'm in. I'm in.
This is it.
Dr. Dre gets his hair cut here?
No, Dre don't leave the house to get a haircut.
The stylist here goes to him.
Since when do you know stylists?
I don't. I know a shampoo girl,
she knows the stylist, she's gonna hook it all up.
Is that cool? Anything else you need to know?
Adam Davies' office, please.
Ari, you don't have to sell me.
I'm not staying with Terrance.
I'm a loyal guy. So, where you go, I go.
That's great news, Vinny.
That is great news, huh? Give it up.
I love it.
You're still gonna act, though, right?
You gonna bring up "Aquaman" again?
I thought you said you weren't here for that. I wouldn't have let you in.
That was before I knew that you were with me. Now that I know,
back to business. I'm representing, baby!
Give me a few weeks and then we can talk about work.
Anyway, what did Cameron say? Was he upset?
- Waiting for a call back. - Just call him, Ari. Get it over with.
I will, Vinny. Hear me out first. Please.
Maybe I should stay with Terrance, 'cause you obviously don't get me.
You think Terrance gets you? When he hears about this,
you will never hear from him again.
- I swear to God. - So I'll find someone else.
You gonna find someone to replace E?
- You gonna cut him loose too? - E's just a little mad at me.
He'll get over it. He always does.
I don't think so, man. He sounded like he was pretty upset.
Sounded like he's moving on.
- Yeah? Where to, Ari? - Yeah.
I mean, it's sad to say, but the guy's got no options.
Wow, Vinny, heartbreak's made you cold, man.
