So as you can see, since I became the CEO,
1cc6b0bf-e6bb-4d8d-a1de-6971ca2c91f8.gif
our user growth, undeniable.
78884a11-bfdc-4aba-86bb-a819803c901a.gif
Our retention, so sticky, it's pornographic.
c9c42f58-8744-43b6-8204-c44779cfe780.gif
We're lean, we're exploding,
af85454d-22ae-4562-bfaf-a3ea2111b5ed.gif
and we're more mission-focused than ever
e7b38281-d774-481e-b942-4ddc22d019a9.gif
in providing the best video chat
60040454-c312-4936-b89a-f3d10a983ff7.gif
the world has ever seen.
3bf74698-4356-421f-967c-3e906eaeff6f.gif
Wow. Well, this seems really promising, gentlemen.
361d3123-1226-4802-8cce-63e7cecc873a.gif
Promising, indeed.
d7f72607-bf4f-4d48-a7d7-ccbee6c0a496.gif
- I think if each... - "Promising"?
cb4303dd-d190-4816-9e01-797b19d4dd9d.gif
You're a young associate here, so I'm gonna help you out, okay?
71c8febd-e836-4767-86c4-1ae5fccffa19.gif
We have a lot of these meetings set up.
f0ff2d0f-4e9d-48d0-a300-3a40f39bcfd4.gif
We will be fine.
a8f31914-68c8-426b-bb79-be758865e9f5.gif
What he means by that is...
b98d6ad6-b52a-413d-b93a-6f8ef57cb87c.gif
But you...
b201e48b-926b-419a-8753-832b64f2e458.gif
you don't wanna be known around here
7081c6be-d527-48c4-9b06-19acece0198c.gif
as the guy who fucked this up, okay?
8046b4ca-257e-455a-8286-a56fe0e0ced1.gif
So when you hip your bosses to our numbers
8c14a890-4604-4a40-96a6-33f90ae389ee.gif
and they get visible hard-ons, have them move quickly.
47012a8d-c62a-4396-8352-53b6d026ac10.gif
Erlich, you're with me.
d17b5661-683b-4ec1-aa45-5340f2f78b49.gif
- It's "hards-on." - What?
62c67957-c1c5-41fa-9e14-90dfa892bbee.gif
"Hards-on" not "hard-ons."
1e39dbb6-460f-4600-ad91-ededc7e89374.gif
It's a syntactical error that I could've remedied
0fbb2e11-ca57-468f-af6a-ae949319e608.gif
if you had just given me the space to speak.
bcad0c6e-bc20-4bbc-a15e-092609d215f7.gif
Erlich, seeing you Thursday, right?
ab39f014-dd11-4b84-8af4-1595a16f6a04.gif
You better believe it.
d1dc5a03-31dd-4653-a507-7c717116f95f.gif
Can't wait for it. For, uh...
0fcbb446-777f-4519-8a15-b6da788f2680.gif
For Jian-Yang's pitch. His new idea sounds super exciting.
e6ea6c99-9ed0-40a3-8e96-58d343e01c1a.gif
Yes, well, he is... white hot right now.
946ba86b-39f8-4f28-8599-c2c05c8db819.gif
And that's why I had him reach out directly,
294dc2e2-c21b-469b-9fc1-a3850c477db5.gif
and we can't wait to pitch you the idea
492925ff-f04d-4578-a71c-e45477033e2f.gif
that is gonna be pitched to you.
0279d557-07db-4d25-8edc-3d6113b35555.gif
Great. I'll see you then.
b277deda-751d-4e02-aa40-487d7ee778d0.gif
- You have no idea what it is, do you? - Not a fucking clue.
15b79dde-1c32-46a4-aa37-3518e087e3e8.gif
Always blue! Always blue! Always blue!
775834b8-8d23-40a9-84b7-8596c3b19a70.gif
Always blue! Always blue!
30c37ac1-5abd-4af7-9dde-c7afb0811f78.gif
Always blue! Always blue! Always blue!
03503d5a-94f4-4296-a05b-1573a7df064c.gif
- Hey. - Always bl...
b9c5a06a-2846-41a3-85c8-6ed60fe4c9bc.gif
Richard, hey.
2bcd5c7a-64a5-4f7e-b98d-60254fbfb44f.gif
What's, uh... Ah, there we go.
ad979aeb-c14f-442f-a4dc-eccf4b4f3fc2.gif
What's going on? You... celebrating something?
66fc41ea-f7fd-4cfa-89aa-c3eda9eaa506.gif
We were just... chanting.
6b582bc0-65df-4f37-ab78-32f3a6efd79e.gif
Why? What, the pitches go well?
3e196f6d-9f5e-4ad7-9a00-c1ff626d7fe6.gif
They went fine, you could say.
e3af7226-e102-424c-b95e-ba03ccc710f7.gif
You said they went awesome.
381de3ce-7019-4cd0-b808-0ff51a58e15d.gif
All right, thank you, Big Head.
107aee1c-9fa0-448e-945d-4981981ae583.gif
I mean, I did get us a... few offers.
387888ea-4d0f-4db0-a7da-dd1a175c3cb1.gif
"We" did receive more than a few offers,
9477e547-1b74-4e77-a5cb-a5c2667f7209.gif
as "few" often refers to three.
bfc55ec0-b4c6-4917-b08f-fb67e246fbf0.gif
And today, we're four for four.
20b274fa-2410-4ebe-bc00-177a52dead4d.gif
Huh. Which... I mean, what does that even mean?
20b56ff1-6b54-49e1-b526-b0a65f1eec00.gif
Nothing. Nothing at all.
7b741186-d618-4b59-81c6-19a687491f8d.gif
Look, you don't have to do this.
2fbbaf8e-bea8-4f96-af59-2fe5d40b969f.gif
Really. It was my choice to leave the company,
559af268-4213-4a11-ad8b-3aa64450d7a9.gif
and besides, my Internet thing is going great.
07633988-1ef6-43b1-82cd-1ebb9ca29d05.gif
Really, it's going very well.
7a9aee91-2a7d-4638-b890-40b8dadd8697.gif
So I want you to succeed, and I want you guys to be happy.
82f08037-d8cd-41c2-b16b-890b553fc45f.gif
Sure you do, slugger.
2957540d-3df7-43b5-a48a-60b6c182134d.gif
Stop. Really.
b33f5c9f-ad37-47ca-9024-579ffba97822.gif
It's cool. I mean that, totally honestly.
5c4aa741-e24b-4b97-9cb6-c9f9590c9728.gif
Keep it positive.
6b2ca141-2fae-4eb3-9be6-65f344e73695.gif
I should go Skype my dad, I think, and tell him the good news.
98646864-5d18-4d65-abae-e5dfd972941b.gif
Um, it is good news, though, right?
9ef7a2d1-c7c9-487a-99f3-4fe3bcda6f96.gif
'Cause we were all sort of like happy and celebrating,
b6cc68e0-fbdd-4d60-9fae-f14268e2cd48.gif
but now... now it feels sort of weird and...
ff276c61-a13f-48d6-a3a1-cc864e97f351.gif
Just go, Big Head.
a730c4ef-2c7b-449f-bf35-d0f0890ab1d2.gif
- Okay. It's good? - Yes.
35832088-44f5-4a1c-b146-91a5e3c12141.gif
All right. Well... enjoy.
0164bce7-0ab5-49b4-860b-fcfe08628fdf.gif
Carry on. Always blue.
b13fee31-07eb-4aab-a50c-087de1c9a6fa.gif
- Jared. - Okay.
6c667cbf-384d-4c49-b342-7fa70c2a7241.gif
- Always blue. Always blue. - Sorry. Sorry.
d13d28e6-8a13-4d08-9a23-203e48502429.gif
Dinesh, I think you accidentally disabled my access keys
8b03802e-0b2f-493f-9a1a-98c69e429f6a.gif
for the video chat data repository.
9106eab1-d5ce-4776-af8c-c66ce11d3efc.gif
No, actually, I deleted them on purpose.
0e998d04-c121-42ee-bb31-e2bda8a9f36a.gif
I purged all our ex-employees.
3dbecf7e-f8a6-430e-b970-2430f322d6c6.gif
Gleb, Sanjay, Elisabet, you.
b7ac3e54-5df1-4c39-acbd-a95dc5749596.gif
Gleb? What, you're comparing me to Gleb?
dcd686ae-ec2c-4cbc-a599-19794a578699.gif
When we agreed to split the company, we said that
02e2cbd1-1858-4158-a434-c684a4047b5a.gif
you could take the algorithm for your video chat,
69078ef6-32cf-4a37-ba5a-f22d81a62c87.gif
and I could use the data flowing through the system
fc0069ff-5e6f-4e12-9e74-55f8a5c3168d.gif
to optimize the algorithm for my thing.
fd492e18-c2f8-4822-8f31-487a23fdaa42.gif
- We had a deal. - We had an agreement,
eac00952-2684-4fd1-8ce0-6502dd850d3c.gif
not technically a deal.
0036d33d-ea75-4b1a-860b-95567ef71b83.gif
What the fuck, Dinesh?
f10851d7-c30a-42d1-aaf3-8bcaf8dedad6.gif
- Play! Play! Blue, blue! - Always blue! Always blue!
7f036ba1-01a6-4353-9010-2b3b4aafc6bb.gif
Have fun, you're having a party. You got pizza and everything.
366b41aa-cbd4-4928-b1ba-997d63bd00dd.gif
Always blue.
a71455b8-b0ce-4446-a5f2-9943a3a3e361.gif
So, what? I should've got it in writing, Dinesh? Is that it?
7400be35-8f80-4f93-b18a-291e8a42d247.gif
You wanna lawyer up now? You know, we're just some guys in a house.
b119888e-5327-437c-90a2-a0cfceabc691.gif
But I don't wanna be just guys in a house, Richard.
200e0c93-ca42-45cb-b1e2-efe37be2703d.gif
That's the whole point. I want PiperChat to be a real company.
c5ae1259-d48d-4b9f-bdc9-d2c994e33932.gif
And after all the bullshit we went through, no offense,
d97ba6dc-1bb2-4e38-8580-e24ef8dfbc92.gif
I finally got some real financing lined up for us.
1e8bd8c7-b269-4345-b56a-540293bf856c.gif
I cannot have another Intersite on my hands.
41271ec1-f25b-4ba0-bd4b-5f7a1476a450.gif
That was fucking Russ and his shitty tequila.
7195c4f9-3632-4427-be9a-077e72919af3.gif
You know that, man? You were there. That wasn't me.
5d72d170-103f-428e-949c-4988b8d2fc85.gif
Richard, it happened on your watch.
e050edfe-34a8-405c-8194-58f210cda851.gif
I'm sorry. I really am.
cb8a1661-d2fc-4d4a-bd20-4a7b4ff9a75b.gif
But the answer is no.
077ca7ee-fd9d-43a2-a2c5-3a4e015e8532.gif
Okay, well, suck a dick.
509dcffb-0d18-4086-854c-192d98413feb.gif
I'm sorry, what did you say?
709340cf-1e7f-4aa9-a2d6-51b79f4f1b0e.gif
- Nice blazer. - Thank you.
2884f5ed-3d5d-4637-bc48-3976206649d8.gif
- Where'd you get it? - Does it matter?
267695c0-ac0a-4fe4-a55f-5e80422e031c.gif
I just want to know where I can get one,
cdfca698-bf3f-437c-bc5b-e6991184c5ef.gif
so I can look like a total fucking douchebag.
b5e4eca9-31e9-4056-877e-8eb73e7631ee.gif
Wow, right?
951037f8-0d41-47cb-aabe-8ec36728160b.gif
Unbelievable.
27464d34-e15a-4f2d-bbbf-a98ea1da4db7.gif
Gents, why don't we take this...
3907a04c-3edd-40a8-a3e5-c2d5432e972d.gif
party outside?
8f606db2-48f8-4863-93e8-e7284be938d7.gif
Yes, we live in California.
a71ad761-14e2-46ce-aa35-ba438a275d23.gif
We should take advantage of it.
13254c15-02d6-495e-b199-9a72165359ca.gif
Oh... Okay.
81c4f7f5-f24b-4f8e-91de-ee4a8cbe82fb.gif
Gavin, you told me to interrupt
9cce8576-e260-44fa-813a-d445cbacb4b3.gif
if Jack Barker came to see you. I'm sorry.
09d67e44-600f-4b7b-b275-bbbd38780b39.gif
Yes. Send him in.
ed26e8e5-9c79-4ba8-a466-a9ef6b3d2bf2.gif
I thought Barker would crack after one day in that basement.
07dbf183-0595-4a8d-9842-36a2d3b05aa5.gif
The fact that it's taken him two weeks to fess up
dd99ee9b-1b9f-48a9-a7f5-d8c7bf27ed56.gif
about hijacking my fucking plane and resign
2df6e255-66a5-4a4d-bd4c-f0096c495cd0.gif
will make it all the sweeter.
80c87a45-94b4-437f-b644-db1e95940992.gif
Hiya, Skipper.
2a574f07-f062-412b-9af6-db297c136a58.gif
Sorry to barge in. I owe you an apology.
e4106872-73aa-43b6-bea9-a6df5d5551e7.gif
Really? Whatever for?
4a5e5b8c-69f4-401a-8e7c-712793c45c83.gif
When you stuck me in that basement,
bebd4087-efdd-46e7-adf8-00e42bb78f96.gif
I was like, "Jack, what the hell did you do wrong?"
1a2cfb4b-0f1b-439b-8c24-360280ea63c2.gif
And I'm sorry that it took me so long to get it through my thick skull.
9baad5ed-a269-453c-bcb2-240063216c32.gif
I finally figured out what this is all about.
c2c89a3c-f5f9-4bdb-8966-4db145d20d5b.gif
Well, I'm glad to hear it.
c4fb2ea7-341a-4541-9002-60d51756dc12.gif
You are doing exactly what Bobby Iger does over at Disney.
ac5427ff-5e41-40ea-8f8b-abf08f73ae4a.gif
What?
8e471635-a8f4-403f-a971-8dbf6392187a.gif
He makes every manager spend
b9c71444-be53-40c3-a477-dcb02a738cc1.gif
one day of the year in the Goofy suit.
85bd32ca-07ae-4cea-b5d9-4fbf109b4db4.gif
Because sometimes, you just gotta be at product level
57531d89-2489-4625-8b21-c55862bd7408.gif
to be able to see the best path forward.
83fc02b6-026b-4782-8d64-3bd8825d717e.gif
And once I realized that, it was like, ka-pow!
8760b017-db3f-4e8a-9d7d-735a408000c3.gif
It was so obvious. It's the algorithm.
54ff871f-be46-4d7d-b80d-7c4e0945ee1e.gif
Pied Piper put middle-out in their vid chat,
17b00036-0c9b-480e-8893-01b59d0aa424.gif
and it's amazing now, I know. I'm on it all the time with my grandkids.
d03f9867-fd1d-415b-a94f-372b4db74f61.gif
We could use middle-out to revamp our entire suite of products.
aac032af-581d-4e4a-8f31-a5b2b9550a7b.gif
We can make billions, Chief.
bfad48b8-4b24-4030-9a65-9a3eccebe9d6.gif
I'm whipping up some proposals right now
14d30557-4165-45ce-bdf3-09beb9203c37.gif
that are gonna knock that wig right off your head.
09505f57-2596-4660-8f36-122dc87da8dd.gif
Yeah.
27a64a5e-08b5-4155-88ca-94e3a143fa6c.gif
What the fuck is he up to?
0e4eff3f-a3a7-4e8c-a2b2-4fa239bf57c9.gif
Look like a fucking wig to you?
3d71cf11-e928-4a9d-a6d2-f5d0a8a893b6.gif
The point is, Jian-Yang, you don't set pitches.
f79822ad-e3c2-418e-a1c4-616f0bbf638a.gif
I handle the scheduling. That's the symbiosis of our relationship.
e96ac35a-5cbc-4352-bde5-d8879653ed1e.gif
- No. - What do you mean, "no"?
f3793a0d-7762-4b7d-b361-3081b7f7c019.gif
No.
4befb487-3acc-4da1-857a-d4fa2aec8eb3.gif
Jian-Yang, PiperChat has some real heat, okay?
d1af35d5-208e-4bbe-9245-6345a8909ab4.gif
And we can draft off of that,
e7857d4f-b454-4053-bea1-ecb8c83498e4.gif
but it has to be a carefully choreographed dance.
5d1463ea-bf6c-4c81-ba8d-4224c51aa2b5.gif
You can't just wiggle your little tush
0d9b56f6-399e-4efb-9880-15fc081e3836.gif
and expect every VC in the Valley to get hards-on.
aa6bc46f-cc9b-4099-aad8-d6f577e592e8.gif
I am your lead investor, you will respect me as such.
0b8bc930-942b-4d08-a780-3c1e52f9f5c6.gif
I do not respect you.
32421905-1f83-4291-a834-99db95a18f65.gif
You're not any kind of investor. You own nothing.
446f7199-14f8-450a-996c-a1da1dd39270.gif
I own 10 percent. You live in my incubator.
1b8c5629-5583-4b83-b893-7107976670b6.gif
No, you evict me,
2f0811f8-3bf3-4030-8429-9ed92aa1aab1.gif
- I evict your 10 percent. - What are you talking about?
046bb4a1-b004-4973-af7d-ea0f9c2f5502.gif
"Santa Clara Sheriff's Department.
d6d8c5c5-2d06-46b2-85b7-c2c200bb1924.gif
"Vacate or be forcibly removed."
cc845986-2cb4-4b01-855d-96bd0edbd86f.gif
To be fair, Jian-Yang, I filed this when I had no expectations
a717f1ef-3ae9-490a-b2b0-3dd273fdb0a6.gif
- that the system would work. - Okay.
615f43d3-900b-4f3c-a6fd-26e32fb86a16.gif
Jian-Yang, just tell me... can you just tell me what the idea is,
50c02222-8c2e-4da7-b769-1e609d6076b2.gif
so I can Gauge how aggressively I should pursue it?
d31d1305-5aa0-4151-9bd2-612201c3215d.gif
Hey, Jared, you were there, right?
ff4722a5-43c7-40c6-b3b0-3726c9254f42.gif
When we split the company into two,
3d2b9176-9ad2-487e-8b6c-0cfd35110c78.gif
- Dinesh and I had a very... - Stop, stop. Please stop.
be9f93dc-8035-4427-ab70-1aa735c166e3.gif
- Richard, what're you doing? - What? What?
f7a4dede-4854-4506-bc78-f6cf765a4085.gif
What do you mean? I'm complaining about Dinesh.
a66e0091-ea18-499d-a322-8e6cc6b598c3.gif
He... He sucks.
27a9553f-13e8-4325-94a5-54bf0e786faa.gif
He's my boss now, Richard.
45359261-d06d-44bf-a1f6-8bc302ffab5a.gif
Well, your boss is being a real prick.
ffc9a630-8729-46cd-bcce-e09228dc7d16.gif
Richard, we have to bifurcate our relationship.
0d684fa6-bb89-455a-8892-0f3cb2a9a8f4.gif
You and I can no longer discuss business. All right?
2438eae4-918e-4eae-965d-7cfaf436f048.gif
We can... We can talk about anything else two guys might talk about.
eb8e4838-9747-42ba-805b-52ce6c9b718d.gif
We can talk about sports teams and their scores, or pussy,
1c2f185a-64d5-4429-a3c8-ea236a6aef12.gif
but... but you and I cannot and will not discuss business.
8687fbd8-288d-4cd3-b0c0-acb86b88f4c1.gif
Hey, man, for what it's worth,
20e94717-74e2-4f6d-a35a-5ea00ceac4b1.gif
I thought it was super fucked up what Dinesh did.
a95e01e3-23e0-449a-a6eb-c2d03bf832c6.gif
I know what it's like to be the one guy not in the company.
341f1cd9-50d3-4f46-ac57-9d0e812b3dd5.gif
You know? So...
1886e43c-8ccb-42cc-82f0-e3244ffbb150.gif
If you want my log-in, it's all yours.
776ea9a8-3082-42e3-825f-af7237257bdc.gif
Really?
03b8a631-b6c9-4a41-bcd1-21bd62329030.gif
- Yeah, man. - Thanks.
2bc1cb4d-214f-4d07-9e1c-f5ec5edbfc43.gif
You know what?
d7aca0a1-c11b-47e0-b7d2-640cfe1ebf1f.gif
I shouldn't do this. Dinesh said no.
9d448fc8-c7fa-4c47-93ad-b6b790ce0f68.gif
And also, these are "Skyrim" cheat codes.
73b9e4f6-e02e-410b-a806-a7ff212a01b0.gif
Oh, shit. Yeah.
14d511db-8931-4a0e-b9c4-6ffbb6e0b0bb.gif
Hey, my Bloomberg interview is on!
d124d907-8238-4a0c-88b0-7c066580d3a4.gif
How did I come up with PiperChat?
7a4c3fb3-8082-464c-965f-b31d6391599a.gif
That's a very good question.
7d950a50-d58f-487b-b0f0-3e818f5b2d87.gif
I guess the tech gods were just speaking through me.
52c10e29-690f-4f95-a98d-f3847f83a9bd.gif
Somehow, I knew to take the best parts of a service
5ecf9fef-671f-47c4-9564-b5c1a0a9d927.gif
as substandard and crappy as HooliChat and make it...
90404b19-ab5b-484c-9d7d-40f586f6ef8c.gif
How do I put this?
aaff78c3-f9ea-46dc-9b2f-6c50a13ae607.gif
Incredible.
b99cda1a-5a93-4793-b574-1a3f44e165cd.gif
Do you think I have too much product in my hair?
a70f1193-4eff-4649-b741-7176b95f4969.gif
No, I think you should use more.
a5cb74df-97bc-4aa6-b5a5-2b95ab4b890f.gif
Wait. Are you saying that because you think I look ridiculous
24a3e556-4492-430f-be00-deaa2feb4e58.gif
and you want me to look more ridiculous next time?
4e5e5cd3-8d10-49a4-89c5-3aa74cb8212b.gif
Which answer will get more of that stuff in your hair?
40bb7b93-6b2f-4601-94c9-fc9db092186a.gif
but let's just say...
5248546f-f404-4e1a-8fa8-66c6bcfe224b.gif
Wait, wait, wait. Watch this.
16d3d4aa-cc40-4354-9aa7-0016e136435b.gif
This is where I make Emily Chang laugh.
8f1a8ccb-6bfb-4c8d-8120-9d0e94f053b4.gif
Quite a turnaround for a company
ac7d60fe-9f43-4ff7-aa98-01c8fd7d886f.gif
that wasn't exactly soaring.
3841112f-f391-463c-95e9-15daa3323f0e.gif
Oh, it was soaring, Emily...
6106c9b7-3f18-4af4-9399-8867c0b6a314.gif
right into a clogged toilet.
58eb1cb7-fed7-4ccc-9a2f-efdb0367fa73.gif
And not just like a standard clogged toilet.
c8e5337e-64aa-4920-97cc-bf3cf76c46ca.gif
Like, I don't need a plunger.
593c4968-d35c-41e5-9b6f-e41a69eeabce.gif
I need a shovel and a bucket.
c3bbde54-75df-441e-b1fd-2f2d25db8894.gif
But enough about the previous leadership,
93d10e69-53a4-4aa9-a7e7-7e1d52433e64.gif
which was inept, lame, bitter...
5a9b0eca-3306-4e18-b823-e6f4b5bb94da.gif
Fuck him. We had a deal.
3de6b6c8-4080-4f3c-83f6-27357819b4c2.gif
Thanks.
a55c27bc-0bbe-4818-afa3-3198fe800d91.gif
That's weird.
10f9b490-76af-4c47-95df-2eb4a8ed7641.gif
Hey, Richard.
49bae9d0-8a89-4258-b704-7bb382f2c17e.gif
Have you seen the new Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition?
6f97505f-c939-4309-bcee-fecefe94054d.gif
The cover model has the most lovely, enigmatic facial expression.
84642415-84b1-47c5-bf9f-6f157d11d932.gif
Jared, I... I don't really want to talk about guy talk.
1a3f1853-9d9a-49b3-8fe9-056a3eacef26.gif
I'm here to tell you that I think Dinesh may be in some serious trouble.
24afb663-620b-4f83-a352-7d0bf99f50ca.gif
Okay, so I was analyzing a bunch of user data, and I noticed...
8da592a4-6285-4742-ae74-18788477857c.gif
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Richard. Richard.
491b1274-9b88-4b0b-b696-4b3c599b90f9.gif
I told you, I can't talk about this. You have to bifurcate.
754a0348-126f-4253-b23f-e617429caa58.gif
No, Jared, listen, you're gonna wanna hear this.
281b0a28-7124-4b0b-a050-50a7cba6275e.gif
Wait. What do you mean you were looking at user data?
b5e73df0-8452-459b-9bbc-5532fdb5fcf9.gif
You violated our system? Richard, you were inside us?
08dbf62b-cd86-4c2c-b1c8-703975ac9cc7.gif
Don't tell Dinesh, and don't tell any of the other guys, okay?
1e6d2814-36ea-48b3-be1f-34a127672c64.gif
"Don't tell Dinesh"? Richard, Dinesh is my CEO.
e49de5ac-c958-4d64-a8d4-24d50f88d491.gif
- Oh, God. - What are you doing to me?
eb71b978-996f-4b76-a3ca-9f3adc4a65e2.gif
Did I make you angry?
6e2ac5c1-8dc4-44aa-81dd-f8537cfad587.gif
I'm trying to save his ass, okay? I'm trying to save you.
811ddd35-8b76-4562-bae0-c3421c976d8b.gif
Just survey the users...
23f05f45-d427-4ad9-96d8-73ed1c1a4ffa.gif
and make sure you ask how old they are.
d2f6eb37-8378-4a11-8afc-6cc01558614f.gif
Okay? And then, that's it. That's it. That's it. No more.
87ddccde-8c71-4e39-b5ac-628d4f53175a.gif
Stupid fucking Jian-Yang and his shitty app.
4f9d1216-d89d-43af-a3f1-35ef467adcdd.gif
I don't even know if it is shitty.
cf77e73b-e67e-4185-a557-233a837f211b.gif
Hey, you know, I could probably find out about Jian-Yang's app.
03c6d368-d035-4866-b600-c06c442e029c.gif
He asked if he could practice-pitch it to me.
b894934a-e082-4864-bebd-77e162434661.gif
- Do you have any nines? - Go fish.
7ed31d16-cf0c-4ef3-8a49-8a577f50f7f3.gif
Wait. This could be great. What time are you guys doing that?
bc4bcce6-3009-45cd-992e-cc60ed666425.gif
- I could listen in. - I don't know.
11a3a72d-c716-44ef-8868-a5c7efb2125f.gif
He asked if he could pitch me, and I said sure,
63d96c27-5b04-467b-85ca-1efe083b78fc.gif
and then he kind of just like kept talking for a while.
ba5ead34-a898-431a-bf3f-4f5833ae2077.gif
Oh.
ecbd432c-b944-4eb5-93c9-36d35deeca7e.gif
You don't think that could've been the pitch, do you?
95c627e8-be27-4c4a-af5d-a4adccad2321.gif
God damn it, what did he say?
71b1b9d1-e764-46e8-ac33-edbd0e22dcad.gif
Geez, I kind of zoned out.
e09b265d-0818-473b-8b77-a46cb82a0bd3.gif
Shit. Fives?
7b25f551-4e50-4cd0-bde8-a4aac455c3d8.gif
Uh, go fish.
0ae979a2-2195-4edd-83ac-ac9440a33836.gif
Wait. I don't know if this would be relevant,
80e378e1-20e8-4756-a1bc-487b16d773fe.gif
but he did say the word "Oculus" a whole bunch.
6670bd17-320f-467b-9570-06127ccc62cb.gif
- Wait. "Oculus"? - Mm-hmm.
33166f25-b5ff-4d5e-a33f-7184d72495c6.gif
Oh, my God. It's a VR play.
55a9482e-7dca-4526-95e6-ce45ec63fa47.gif
That's the frothiest space in the Valley right now.
cf23500b-8f3c-4d5c-a907-cfd49a1d2525.gif
Nobody understands it, but everybody wants in.
98f06387-9cf0-4ebf-bc43-229ad37d25ca.gif
Any idiot can walk into a fucking room,
2bbfc90d-be3d-46b6-b6fe-cbf92e2c7a75.gif
utter the letters "V" and "R," and VCs will hurl bricks of cash at him.
c3350ba5-d142-440f-9ccc-3dd27333ea5b.gif
Then by the time they find out that it's vaporware, it's too late.
186d5fef-f9fe-4b37-a9c7-eb1de99cd8d6.gif
I have got... to get in on this.
81136ee9-d673-4e2b-ad94-f8b05a62e1b7.gif
Trust me. Just give me five minutes. There he is.
56ee2f58-8acc-407e-9273-f5561bbd6cf2.gif
- Hey! - Wait. Is that our lawyer?
bcaaec59-1b48-4856-8836-4549d8a3ca64.gif
- Hey! - I thought he was in jail.
70a263ee-db01-48ff-bf27-ccf801746e93.gif
Hey. Perfect timing.
9a9af702-d702-4453-aa35-83e76747e8b3.gif
I just completed the detailing on this Kia.
492fa295-2e7f-4e15-b87c-3a110af532f3.gif
- Come on. - What the fuck is going on?
51d54927-78f1-493c-b3c8-263ca6f1217c.gif
Wait. I don't understand. How did Richard have access to our user data?
1bc16915-f8ad-4f89-96fa-263cd6e3f4d5.gif
Someone must've let him in.
dd904964-d28d-4d05-ab11-798716f1c56c.gif
It was you. You're a fucking rat, Jared.
fd53be78-f8f6-403e-b6f8-85b32199ccdf.gif
Richard entered us without consent.
7229d131-e4e3-4ca0-ba27-38dd9ee0939b.gif
In spite of that, he has raised a real issue here.
eed55352-2164-4905-a524-7f140121ee83.gif
Fuck this. I'm gonna Uber home.
a2c3e146-13f6-4774-a7c1-ae4515306195.gif
Mr. Monahan, good luck with this whole work-release situation,
7a245b88-d8bc-4736-babb-330f7bf89bf6.gif
but I have more important things to do.
a6368a2f-6870-4fbf-9143-b064a695ed39.gif
Mr. Chugtai.
54b045eb-ee66-436d-b040-ce3eb378ee36.gif
It appears that 33 percent of your users are under the age of 13.
bcdd11e1-4d1a-4325-a87d-feb08b929108.gif
It's also apparent that you have
715d3c8d-4a6f-4bf3-a69c-d3d57828fd07.gif
no parental permission requirements in place.
8160a5b8-6504-4086-94e3-8cecdd668801.gif
You're going to want to sit down for this.
ead55d25-b5de-4cdd-b498-7a3a538fad62.gif
- Are you familiar with COPPA? - Who?
66ee51a0-ab31-428f-b813-d923e5e96e57.gif
That's the Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act.
1d93a9d2-0b58-4486-8183-464b4e765ff5.gif
This Act establishes strict guidelines
430a2008-2673-4f9b-a9e4-a6dfcc03f0f2.gif
to protect the privacy
ebc588b5-98be-485c-b54c-7bd5991f6f91.gif
of younger children on the Internet.
940eca61-128f-4010-a190-3e35cbc137ab.gif
You are in gross violation of this act.
299bf191-3b8c-48a5-83fe-28067af8da80.gif
You know how kids can't have a YouTube or Facebook account
862e26b0-4b07-4279-92b7-0291f368977c.gif
till they're 13? It's because of this.
9762817b-d38a-4dcd-9e88-c484bf5117e1.gif
Yes, but our users are chatting with each other, Jared,
569bfe84-2b97-40c5-a319-256d5d7ca454.gif
not some old creep.
8e49de64-8542-4349-b98c-872b4da89cd7.gif
- No offense. - None taken.
ac6d3784-08d0-4506-b427-2ee98f324a86.gif
My shame will linger even after my voting rights are restored.
8c2661db-0b3b-4d68-aee2-416f55b95b2c.gif
Now, are there records of these chats on your server?
52aa0c89-c548-4ce5-a9de-d2772c2f1118.gif
Yeah, we store everything.
2df9b867-4a8c-44ad-b116-f84cd45fe4ea.gif
What... Okay. What's going on? How serious is this?
6cadfd18-c5c5-4041-96d8-ad13352e1fe4.gif
Each violation of COPPA...
ac5e298b-017a-4bee-9396-3ec108b2fe03.gif
carries a penalty of $16,000.
5c8e6090-5a0e-43b6-870b-e4b27ac8f801.gif
So we're fined $16,000?
120bb578-ab4b-4690-ac5d-65967174f88b.gif
Oh, no. I hope they take cash.
80dbddff-00ce-45bb-9712-c6bb82c585c9.gif
$16,000 per user.
9e06816c-de29-4825-ab44-f2482beeefe5.gif
Not only each user...
993464fd-c5e0-4b8f-be6d-76c3f4eabd4f.gif
each use.
349293fb-248e-4dc4-b36c-fb06fc474dbe.gif
Fifty-one thousand estimated underage users
8a7a4b88-47d0-4314-a0ba-d5767fb8dab9.gif
times an average 25.6 chat sessions per user
365f929a-50a3-449e-868f-c2c9262599c6.gif
times $16,000...
ba8375bf-6b61-4318-bc20-e03b59b13460.gif
$21 billion?
fa9cf035-3489-4ad1-801b-60801ade4f76.gif
I mean, how is that even fucking possible?
5ebcb62d-62fc-4b5d-aae4-0b25b0bd07ad.gif
I mean, I knew Dinesh was going to fuck this all up,
00358eb8-4617-47ce-8244-a3609e6a19a1.gif
but honestly, this couldn't get any better.
df1933c6-2b20-4dc1-8024-d13f08426b73.gif
What's with the shirt?
7df22eee-5fa8-4bd3-9fa2-bff192d96bbb.gif
Oh, he sort of became ill on himself.
636af713-da6d-4a55-96df-4205c50de3f8.gif
I was wrong. This just got better.
42467d1c-5abc-4c37-91c2-05d8f09c4a61.gif
This is all your fault, Richard.
98bdabc9-9b9c-4100-8c1e-be5ab2f1fd0a.gif
This was your company before it was mine.
09f7237a-a4a7-49a8-a49c-4de68406d804.gif
What are you talking about?
f96c0d02-bf87-45c6-8f0d-c2db1ada32d7.gif
Dinesh, I specifically reminded you
a8fa1042-5a24-4866-99a4-c2b62b644fb8.gif
to port over the terms of service from the platform.
c10ac73f-d323-46b3-b217-099ccf5fe232.gif
Right, and I asked if you'd done it, and... and you said you had.
c7d19f7e-7650-42dc-af7d-6e841653de5b.gif
Okay. I checked the TOS box when I submitted to the app store,
835abd48-209e-4ea1-891b-b9ec6bde82f3.gif
but then I didn't end up doing it, all right?
c33d5f9a-50ac-4a05-8969-fb4869f2c397.gif
And then when we caught fire,
911d91af-c1eb-4503-9173-1adb8ac61619.gif
the last thing I wanted to do
92d187af-230d-420b-b37e-254280eb8367.gif
was bog our users down with legal bullshit, you know?
217f4bde-f1b6-4185-8fca-5ef9dd987c4d.gif
I mean, nobody reads that stuff anyway.
6043379d-4984-42dc-bfda-740157dd1d85.gif
Well, first of all, everyone reads the terms of service,
59604cd9-fa6f-4d59-ab6d-cf31fa94b0fb.gif
and secondly, they would've given us legal cover from exactly this.
81c63259-6901-4917-a700-f257b3bb6138.gif
Every sound is $16,000.
75c09b6a-c183-4928-bce9-41e183a18eec.gif
Fuck!
e7e4ba77-c072-4178-bb82-6a2db4d70654.gif
All right, all right. Don't think about that.
eaed2755-fd57-4164-a637-41330b385182.gif
Just think about how to solve this massive, massive problem.
5c48f334-5d1c-443b-9d13-38c94b1b0e02.gif
Quickly.
8d3abe39-374b-46e0-b7a4-42c0b9be66e8.gif
Quick as you can. Jared! Just...
e73e01f9-8218-40c5-8fbb-a9794bbfb036.gif
Wait. We could shut down.
3e662412-8d25-4d35-922e-8cfa93233804.gif
No, no, no. Not when we're this close to signing a term sheet.
a3cb316d-1f05-429f-ac35-bb7738df8afb.gif
And in case all of you gents have forgotten,
7d94d624-c689-4b75-b79c-d90380ae2297.gif
I'm on the hook for half a million clambos for this thing.
71362d73-18fd-4be8-9e28-7abbc7b8da89.gif
But we can't stay online! We're just racking up more fines!
4c919ae7-6075-436b-8c7f-2c1dd378141a.gif
Well, technically, this is a corporation.
6355becc-8be3-4df5-8f5a-7ead5d9729f5.gif
So whatever they fine you,
cf5ab005-2891-4f96-b6b0-a5f1b4b1d851.gif
they'll really only be able to collect what the company's worth,
85a42b44-1067-46ef-a072-400eb5aa064e.gif
which at this point, is basically nothing.
150bcaf5-a1c5-41a6-b914-3030b0efa5f0.gif
That's right. I'm just the CEO.
79cc10d3-b31d-404c-817d-81d3d33c8b0b.gif
I'm not personally liable.
403af1aa-b729-4fb7-b8ca-36fa27d3e620.gif
Although...
13e58a3e-85c0-48a3-8d11-2cd5e214db0a.gif
Although what?
e4f7d35d-7934-4b23-a2cc-134328670963.gif
Well, when you lied to me about adding terms of service,
c80c00ed-f78b-43f1-b073-4670b559c9c6.gif
it could be argued you violated
fd48f18c-9f06-4f8e-b556-b1611eab8fc2.gif
your fiduciary duty to the company,
cb5f144b-318d-4d64-a31f-a65d487fb15e.gif
rendering you personally liable.
28968306-8193-40ba-a33c-f113f45cc97d.gif
I mean, if the FTC brought us to trial,
b7dc38b7-4320-4857-ac27-7ca5adf50783.gif
I could be compelled to testify against you.
8776c73e-eb80-4006-ac9f-e2343667f680.gif
Jared, I trusted you.
9071c9f7-55c3-4671-a2c6-e35b0c3b11cd.gif
Oh, trust has nothing to do with it,
4a04bb5f-1ce6-4e24-89c0-0abb086df7bb.gif
but thanks for making that official.
65c63d18-c116-47e4-9390-371496e2a1fc.gif
So I could be personally liable
11cbd810-b3ab-4a2f-aee0-3c419b89f2ce.gif
for $21 billion?
92c97bec-b043-48eb-a0d3-9b68b163e1a8.gif
Yeah, most likely.
c00d5fbd-beba-4355-9e06-10483c3bf3c7.gif
I know, in the fable, Pied Piper led all the children
3b7c2697-6e19-4a46-8723-0a1e6355bd63.gif
into darkness, but now we're doing it.
567d18b1-0b45-4260-8a3c-3aa60d417e37.gif
So, what do you wanna do?
2ede05b8-1235-40d7-b02d-9c5c549b833f.gif
I'm gonna throw up again.
33105ffa-6cd5-4e51-b7ed-319910af56d5.gif
I'm going to watch this.
8361cc0a-ba88-43e3-8654-1cc54c299dcb.gif
I want full surveillance on Jack Barker, 24/7.
8a213503-40cc-4cc7-a9fe-58362961e74b.gif
I don't recommend using conventional listening devices.
737419e9-5c50-4192-9025-3cbf7e630020.gif
He may sweep for those.
33b36257-af80-4113-80c6-98ea0cd0367e.gif
I do have a colleague at Facebook that has
16769981-f106-4f99-af39-c418dfdd08ff.gif
a laser microphone. You can point it
c128fc22-f553-497e-b007-28576ac82410.gif
at an office window from a mile away
458ead14-8c53-40f4-a728-52a122cddd32.gif
and read the sound vibrations.
00e7ec76-2d29-4e7d-af82-b654ddb3c06f.gif
I like it.
04fb12cc-c9a7-4d06-b4a1-9791ff7ff6ce.gif
Hoover, you're the only person I can trust at this goddamn company.
d9fb8850-cb80-483f-8396-342c45985cd5.gif
It's good to have a friend.
6104be0a-a1ab-4792-af23-100de27028b0.gif
I understand that, sir.
f79a62ec-2847-4ca8-9a94-297f4da5cb97.gif
Ah! Gavin, there you are.
bdd9c4a1-e9dc-4309-bad6-7498b20f3da3.gif
Oh. I don't want to interrupt your talking with Hoover...
a5b50875-d01f-4e18-ab27-5f21785ae9de.gif
and talking and talking about things,
7d59d923-1e11-4bee-a6e2-42698ef0b7aa.gif
but I have some concrete news.
a7121b09-a032-4f37-a4bf-064f4b22fa72.gif
- Regarding? - Jack Barker.
e6d77c66-cf5a-4cbe-9708-d66210d7a885.gif
By forgoing Western gadgetry,
61137dfc-8d5e-49d9-bcd3-1c925de63085.gif
simply stationing myself in the hall outside of his office,
aad7584a-73c8-4934-a6d4-11332cf00632.gif
I was able to overhear him speaking
2b656772-24e9-479e-87ba-79f5653a148f.gif
of his plans to move against you.
e02ac73c-edf7-4115-942a-e2476a7c6612.gif
He even referred to you as "Gavin... Smellson."
0efd59c1-5b9b-479b-b3b8-f5dce0b4aa79.gif
I knew it! Good work, Denpok.
02ae070a-527e-4ed8-a926-cd4d56524977.gif
Good work. Let's go slice this bastard in half, huh?
85dbf4aa-2d35-4253-9528-3727ced822b1.gif
Hold on. We need proof.
edc021f7-8faf-4977-ac47-aaf02e22f243.gif
Otherwise, he'll just deny it,
103f6710-ddf7-4d6d-8789-0d41b8bd5571.gif
and it'll just be a case of he said/she said.
47c67fd9-5743-408b-b893-451a9787a559.gif
That's a good point. Denpok, who was he talking to?
f79ad507-f312-4654-88b5-45d17a204378.gif
Oh, um...
bade664e-c8b9-4a37-9a12-43988cebe9d9.gif
Alas, I could not see this from my hidden vantage point.
b6ec685a-d0bf-4b84-8d2f-653ed959431c.gif
I'll check the logs and see who was in his office.
1e1594fd-1884-44a6-880b-c0b207f506bf.gif
No, because...
7d97f79d-a9bf-4f5c-994b-c21740d5af10.gif
no one was there.
eb433de6-90ae-4baf-890a-719be67eaa86.gif
I'm confused. Was he on the phone?
3a1645db-a5bd-4b41-a5f7-a43aa7e425c6.gif
Yes. Very perceptive.
45797006-b105-4199-8995-cf8209738f4b.gif
Easy. I'll just pull up his phone records.
5a604055-1fac-444e-8256-3a266a304b8f.gif
No.
96c26698-d5a8-4f18-84cd-38374741a736.gif
Not the phone phone.
56a43e5d-0da7-42d1-92b2-8754910fa0e1.gif
So what was he doing? Was he video chatting?
eeb3d637-946d-4e6d-85e7-0c7416e70741.gif
That's what it was, chela.
73e05a34-020f-4242-86d5-2946fe9fcaef.gif
Even better. I'll pull up the chat data.
12a32eb9-c13c-4d7a-afc9-0320d42eec0b.gif
You can do that?
8fde5329-c76a-4098-b2e1-288d61427132.gif
Well, as long as he was on HooliChat,
e3217f6f-4dc7-42fb-825a-e200701de36e.gif
but the bastard kept grinding in my face how much he loved PiperChat.
86189ea0-91e6-4fdd-a24a-662b7c59bab3.gif
- What if he was using... - PiperChat. Yes.
1cce4361-e0cd-406a-9089-4f4300346a34.gif
- Fuck! - He said the resolution was
e40f90f7-ed18-4526-b6e0-5d8962c8520e.gif
so vivid and superior to HooliChat.
9777c22c-5908-44a6-9279-f20bb75d7b7d.gif
Ah. Sadly, now we'll never know
73a31781-0658-4ab9-b19b-651afe08cd75.gif
the identity of the person with whom he was definitely talking.
e42b4799-97c5-46bb-8395-0960ca44848a.gif
- Unless... - Unless what?
2d2252aa-5080-48cb-843e-ee6ed5a122e1.gif
Dinesh?
7f98e141-a15c-40d9-a282-b238e292464f.gif
Hey, man.
09b21ac7-e75c-4c71-8428-02b4db71aae7.gif
How's it going?
54e0d50a-0e54-406b-a9c6-ad7d860c594d.gif
Bad.
7a857a47-33ee-4899-9e80-66f39ac0e2d4.gif
Well, look, I've been there, man.
f5feaa9d-e85c-454d-b476-52ada137846d.gif
- No, you haven't. - No, I... I have.
f4e5b7f2-8eff-4e1b-8349-466f4f9d78a9.gif
One time when we were pitching at Ross Loma...
ba435122-0f3b-4af6-be7b-7eae29f74fad.gif
I threw up in my pants.
cca6d3b5-7abe-44eb-944f-835bdf2d7993.gif
Don't you mean "on"?
8352288c-87b4-4648-af20-20df0fe63027.gif
No. No, I mean... I mean "in."
aba84266-c046-4694-8e59-b32bd954a749.gif
We were pitching and... well, things weren't really going well,
8995c4a9-3afd-4ada-9cdd-666cbe4aea8d.gif
I was getting nervous and... I don't know,
f5f4de9f-b018-4cce-842b-d87691a5f6a7.gif
I think I must've eaten something bad that day.
e5f009b3-4bb1-488d-b259-ddfe77386992.gif
Anyway, my stomach was upside down, so I made a beeline to the stall.
c129ee83-8ab9-4bd2-8010-6e2480652fb6.gif
But then I pulled down my pants, sat down...
3ff5b56a-90de-4d60-9762-2333b7b15bfb.gif
but instead of shit, I threw up... into my pants.
980a143f-fc4b-4253-b55d-d14255d03d14.gif
Well, I was CEO for 11 days,
ff7b3914-859a-4ee6-916e-1b2f2bfb7bed.gif
and in that time I violated the rights
264dd3c5-4cb3-41e9-bd90-d2f9a1287031.gif
of 50,000 little girls,
f9b6560f-e234-40aa-8b65-294446873b4d.gif
exposed them to sexual predators,
1c702784-3bcf-4901-8f0c-917ddff60496.gif
and racked up fines the size of a small nation's GDP.
88bb8786-7eab-49d4-9b2f-50c754b404cf.gif
Yeah. I threw up in my pants.
3cfb63c1-fbb5-4781-b551-6f44c8ea89dd.gif
Fuck.
417fb373-1917-4246-9b42-15fbdb08f93b.gif
What do I do, Richard?
8c46336a-7241-4682-a5d4-145867cff507.gif
There are no right answers.
6a6745dc-1354-43b5-810a-f2511aa69700.gif
You know, when I was CEO...
f89ee2c3-6270-4599-9687-09bcc8f168ff.gif
I found that it was more about choosing
96925b46-051f-4cc3-a4df-3f8c2dc05f97.gif
the one wrong answer that you can live with.
7150a8f7-062b-41ec-86ba-be903a9f25bd.gif
I really loved that video chat.
f929ed7e-1a33-45e0-818b-5b0d8ac48cd6.gif
Hello.
efba0c09-8d06-4d39-8098-5e244eaa467b.gif
This is he.
968ada74-7172-4ea6-82c2-0b0de6abca4e.gif
What?
f032f8ba-d4b8-4679-a2a3-e75abc53d998.gif
It's Gavin Belson.
374a9123-2a45-4b71-9c60-0c1f15c478ee.gif
It's Gavin fucking Belson.
8a606739-fb50-40af-821d-28021ce91c80.gif
Hey, Gavin Belson.
2d2cf43e-6af9-475e-a8d2-3e5b7f164e0f.gif
What's up? Oh, my God.
1293ad6c-e942-47d3-8220-01069bcf3405.gif
We're crushing it all the time.
4b76a987-7a0f-4a1b-8e88-9f9268cf7f3f.gif
I'm in a bathtub.
4c01aa22-5348-4c65-8cb5-5937371ad722.gif
Yeah, of course. I'd love to. Bye.
8449190c-90fc-4f30-b664-1a1748b6bc28.gif
He wants to meet me at Josephina's tonight.
a2d988f0-1907-450a-b7e5-728ce33aa73b.gif
Did I say yes?
1d6b8ab2-574f-4553-b13a-688de1720eab.gif
Holy shit.
d8f185a9-bbc0-4e70-bd38-3edc1902d555.gif
Gavin Belson wants to acquire PiperChat.
06b21dbc-a807-43bc-8c44-d070bf0e4d21.gif
He made the same call to me back when he wanted
868592ad-34ec-458a-928a-e51e71ad8b7b.gif
to make an offer for Pied Piper.
53591f1b-ce8b-47aa-9135-15d8fcb7ed5b.gif
He could take this entire shitbomb
cc5c366e-5105-48b0-9811-be90aa8214be.gif
off Dinesh's hands? Where's the fun in that?
ac5c859a-3a11-4175-9ab1-375d1053480b.gif
More importantly, I could get all my money back, maybe even more.
d33b4c5f-2a85-4a72-b1be-d0a168d4acb5.gif
We could 10X this motherfucker, gents.
b817ab0e-7697-4cca-a0f6-06430292285a.gif
- Although... - Although what?
cc19c546-75c7-444c-bd64-640205e1fc02.gif
Well, I'm sorry to play the Cassandra again,
87df96e0-93f8-4206-af2f-a6fcb31966c0.gif
but Dinesh can't sell Gavin the company.
fdf590a3-337a-4671-850d-b190b92c2eab.gif
- Why not? - Why the fuck not?
71bc57b5-99f5-4370-889b-85193e4575a4.gif
It's due diligence. Gavin doesn't trust anyone.
3bb4da7f-2b6e-41bc-a68d-f4bd0b86503b.gif
When I worked for him, he tried to microchip me.
ba3add39-20a8-4a7a-94cb-334aa8c0835d.gif
Before he finalized any acquisition,
d5ad664d-2548-4428-a062-c69a90d20e6a.gif
his legal team would uncover our malfeasance.
acac736c-7a1d-4625-bb97-eb5fd5e7ab7f.gif
They'd sniff out the user issue immediately.
b19edb9d-24e6-47c5-ba9f-367f396f6586.gif
And they'd probably turn you in, and you do not want that.
a7e449b2-7315-4c38-97e4-ebfea6ea4f83.gif
I mean, there's also the moral quandary.
906ae7ee-f265-4e65-b22f-221aac9b94c2.gif
Even if he could get away with it,
c0a85ae2-4ea3-4621-ac8e-f9bf8ca5ea8d.gif
could Dinesh really sell the company, knowing it's basically
b9edaa52-8602-4312-94e2-2f8a039606c4.gif
a Sizzler buffet for the sexually deranged?
891d9504-8014-4bd4-bf0b-104c96324da5.gif
Of course he could. Because even if there is a one percent chance of success
c36f6c12-9494-41c4-b56f-aefebbedbc79.gif
and a 99 percent chance of failure and prison,
0fde3a3a-fc78-4312-9522-cb51060a9a3c.gif
he will do the right thing and get me my money back.
fc24a0da-698b-4805-808d-5967d6ff83ba.gif
I'm sorry, Erlich. I've made my decision.
13886d7f-5063-4eb7-9948-d1d22401ec92.gif
I'm gonna say no to Gavin Belson...
d855da74-56c2-496f-a629-71a46fa0fc3c.gif
shut it down, and just see what happens.
007877e5-fe03-427c-a63f-ff08fe8c1b1a.gif
What the fuck, huh? What the fuck?
2a67ee73-3fb4-4623-9f56-e831c089cd06.gif
Jian-Yang!
19444682-257e-438a-be42-12b32572ba84.gif
Hey, Gavin.
bca64616-f749-40ea-8fcb-751a59083c85.gif
- Well... - Dinesh.
b75d35b6-0aef-4718-ac5b-ccb2928555f7.gif
Thanks for coming.
ffa05794-d7b3-4a01-bdf6-a824e9b40235.gif
Listen, Gavin. I've thought about it,
13b323c7-3443-4e2b-94fb-0c277f19c520.gif
and if this is about you buying PiperChat...
62b610d5-b3de-438f-9685-7532f195e64b.gif
I didn't come here today to buy your company.
d4dcb537-06ae-4238-8eb1-e90696c2f8de.gif
You didn't?
6c4c2e1e-2856-42c9-8d2e-85c1a2cc4a47.gif
No. I came to take it.
5d3be617-96df-4d29-a248-43da321754fd.gif
I thought I'd have to buy you out,
d41c0f24-e655-4f2b-8627-fe3e1fede369.gif
and I wanted to know what kind of CEO I'd be dealing with,
fc198cf2-9544-4949-a615-d755e4dff985.gif
so I had my comms people pull your press,
fc704f45-f706-4686-b8aa-12dbcdc48ad7.gif
like this interview you did with TechCrunch
9633f311-14cb-48b0-baee-2c2275f25e1a.gif
where you described PiperChat as, and I quote,
45b038be-30e5-4d87-89be-71cfc7c63ce6.gif
"Exactly like HooliChat,
51ad8c89-ace5-40cb-9908-9217cc55c51d.gif
"but without the suck-ass parts," end quote.
94c3a685-cd97-4491-93c9-14008c34e0a7.gif
Or the one you did with Emily Chang,
20011399-0370-4a79-8e93-7b92ec0f2ce9.gif
where you told her how you took "the best parts of HooliChat
db8ae0d8-17ba-4416-879d-85c47429a395.gif
"and made them less crappy."
fceb9cdf-4b38-4e1a-a5c4-4759e03aa0b8.gif
I was about to throw you a massive acquisition deal,
8d312996-7a15-4545-9f1b-796b8f8a90e0.gif
and then I realized you'd already publicly admitted to stealing my IP.
d555e927-c0ed-4ce5-a2e8-42a26f147af6.gif
I hope you have a good lawyer.

He works at the car wash down the street.
390202ff-c106-45ce-b299-4dab338727c1.gif
What?
5d6c8f2d-3d87-4d90-8537-d4180b0af7ba.gif
Look, Gavin, you do not want to do this.
951ff134-c76d-4e5b-a30d-f385c1b6809e.gif
- I can't explain exactly why. - Shut up.
cce85112-5114-41e3-9f19-3354ac7a6874.gif
This is not a negotiation.
b92d5316-b4b3-4382-9790-371055e062f7.gif
If you fight me, I will win,
d1d039b2-2da6-42b6-ad4d-f1b700f6bdf3.gif
and I will fuck you in the tech business forever.
feca356b-155c-4ff8-a4a2-e1ec340d379f.gif
No one will hire you.
94e4e01c-d5c5-4bc9-a9d9-f1b511a00840.gif
I'm taking PiperChat. By 8:00 a.m. tomorrow,
342bbf84-d74e-4df5-9fa6-686e68305f43.gif
you will hand over to Hooli all your data and systems.
50ecbe1d-905a-427f-afde-96d060349cde.gif
All your users will be converted to HooliChat users.
6351bd6f-7b4c-4885-817f-f10e84184faa.gif
It will be like PiperChat never existed.
f649824e-b88e-4f25-9fed-088497d86295.gif
And what you get out of it is the chance to walk away
16bbbe9e-e9d6-45a0-9e03-00b002efa2ad.gif
and try and get another job in this town.
7cffb3cc-7a50-421b-9dd4-9a1b44406440.gif
You have five seconds to decide.
51b21d81-dd89-454d-baea-b0f392400dc4.gif
- Five, four... - Okay.
5b478f0f-7d04-46a0-8246-e4fef685df7e.gif
So we're in agreement.
95f17805-9a8e-4b55-afab-efeff5b04950.gif
For a 10 percent stake in your current venture,
00cff18d-7b05-46f8-9ad9-ee257f1bec20.gif

6113c0a9-537d-489c-9f67-007a32cf6b23.gif
more room in the crisper, and you may live in my home for...
6df79386-f823-47f0-b93f-31fa9d4e7233.gif

for free for six months.
839fefc1-3fe0-4a17-836e-9a4578473147.gif
Fuck you. One year.
22a3b59a-4758-4598-a44f-99896178a821.gif
Fuck! Fine. Fine.
9ac9a8df-e875-41a0-9b5a-2d269c053491.gif
- It's a deal. - Deal.
8c220def-fa4b-4f17-958f-aa547ddc4e58.gif
Jian, I mean, your onerous terms not withstanding,
e8ae2bbb-e656-4d3a-8ebd-b2cad288cd69.gif
I'm very excited to be a part of your VR play.
f5a169fc-5c7a-4d2c-a96a-033143c4078a.gif
- VR, virtual reality. - Who's doing VR?
69690c0c-4e98-4d78-b55e-16e86dce61e8.gif
You are. That's what Big Head said.
8984c9a5-d7f4-4970-9efe-f82a1e5abb39.gif
This play has to do with the Oculus, right?
15189630-37fb-4c4a-8c81-4c69e8093ebb.gif
- No. - But he said that you said, "Oculus."
3ece0805-ba3d-440e-9ba3-adaf06388841.gif
He said you kept saying it. "Oculus, Oculus, Oculus."
2624630e-acf6-458d-8bf1-d1b1bbd1bffc.gif
Octopus.
e847fbd1-ac90-437c-afa3-219900ce5d2c.gif
No.
013da0b4-3a83-496d-b55e-5f5fd164ea92.gif
No.
2353a249-4177-49f4-9bd8-310a298c3db4.gif
- Octopus? - It's a water animal.
d57f388b-0b27-4d35-9772-47dc9eb19c5d.gif
I... I know what an octopus is.
6cb57669-8179-4290-9183-658f571c9e09.gif
Just... What does your application have to do with octopus?
322fe234-f91e-453b-8940-bda5eed97821.gif
Eight different ways to make a Chinese recipe, octopus.
83d28303-7843-4c97-ba87-a097bf628c5e.gif
So I just traded one year...
8c0f338d-97c4-46b1-a39c-eb2f81aa746a.gif
of free rent, full pool privileges,
cb242b32-2576-4e83-b2fa-ad1f8fde4daf.gif
and more room in the crisper
13594c69-83f3-4a73-b9e9-e29956d09113.gif
for an application that is just...
58c8757a-b74b-4cae-addf-6f307c5be593.gif
eight recipes for octopus?
00fc39ae-33be-405d-8b7e-ca0e9268e5af.gif
- Hmm? - Yes.
8aebe3d8-741a-4b34-b7e4-846bc3f13955.gif
Hey, guys, they're ready.
3aee921b-6ae5-4763-8726-9c60353b8ce9.gif
Ooh. Ooh.
11333d2d-c39f-4696-9cf1-4d7f0a1b8714.gif
What the fuck is this?
7c4869d5-1c6b-4983-922b-c035e32e587b.gif
I went through every chat in his history.
025eae1f-9970-48d6-a605-878cbd1cf67b.gif
They're all the same.
fbe13289-3cbf-45a6-a465-6ed606779115.gif
Perhaps it was another chat format.
b7766753-ed3a-4b30-908a-0b803ccdce7e.gif
Could you acquire Skype or FaceTime and check them as well?
ec2624d6-de30-4ca6-9f71-7df54aabb99d.gif
What?
f2388060-8fe2-42be-a081-053cdd295943.gif
Uh, Gavin, I'm... I'm sorry.
43ed11e4-c43f-4a0e-98af-cb723444f54f.gif
I need to talk to you about this PiperChat acquisition.
dce53e2d-d464-4450-9ebb-5adb43c0484f.gif
I put together a panel of the most active users
e2ee39f2-c657-4ccd-baaf-ef92dab92fca.gif
you ported over from PiperChat.
fd2ca84e-e0f9-41ce-b6b3-20746d1e6832.gif
Bear in mind, this group is representative
e77ff64f-6eb3-4840-ac94-9d946849e12b.gif
in terms of gender, race
45fbf9f7-8e0c-48ed-83b5-d40cc44b6d54.gif
and, most importantly, age.
baa59bdd-5899-417d-a536-b09e973bc8e6.gif
Now, who else thinks changing
05354209-bd85-4b07-8777-9ac47cd9ae27.gif
to a HooliChat log-in is hella lame?
b4d56cd3-ffd6-4752-9418-59326f24e98e.gif
Madison, Allison, Jennifer,
df15d6f4-4f4b-4b85-a128-54cff48f2157.gif
Stephanie, Quinn, Ingrid, Kaylee...
6460a49e-519f-4989-9a18-c9fdaa857f6d.gif
- Oh, no. - Amber, Sarah, Janelle...
45261a61-9eb7-4075-bcdc-6781e925bbe2.gif
Carl. Now, Carl...
e8d3f3e2-231c-4327-859e-676cb998d54c.gif
you said the new sign-in page made you nervous.
63459848-12b9-4904-a381-d4d6ee8f1ae1.gif
Did anyone else feel nervous?
