Mr. McCoy, you're free to go.
1:55:09
I don't fucking believe this.
1:55:13
Shit!
1:55:21
So we come to the end of our story.
1:55:24
That was the last I saw of Sherman McCoy.
1:55:27
The last anyone saw of him.
1:55:29
He was gone...
1:55:31
...in a blaze of glory. A hero for our times.
1:55:35
Or as close to a hero
as we're likely to get these days.

1:55:50
And now, without further ado,
the man of the moment.

1:55:55
The winner of the Pulitzer Prize...
1:55:57
...the National Book Award
and every other prize you can win.

1:56:00
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Peter Fallow.
1:56:25
Sherman, who started with so much,
lost everything.

1:56:29
But he gained his soul.
1:56:31
Whereas l, who started with so little...
1:56:34
...gained everything.
1:56:36
"But what does it profit a man
if he gains the world and loses.... "

1:56:40
Ah, well.
1:56:42
There are compensations.
