:41:03
See, we´re gonna front the money
for this sale...

:41:05
and if he doesn´t send the check,
l´m the one holding the bag, follow me?

:41:08
Right.
:41:09
Last commission month, the kid on J im´s
team wrote a million-dollar ticket.

:41:13
Stock was down 3 1 /2 points
by settlement.

:41:16
Fuckin´ kid took
a 1 /4 million-dollar hit.

:41:18
- Shit.
- You know how much that hurts?

:41:20
Besides, the first sell
just whets the appetite.

:41:24
If he´s a whale--
which it looks like he is--

:41:27
then l´ll get him on a day
when there´s a real rip.

:41:30
What´s a rip?
:41:32
A commission.
That´s why we work here.

:41:35
We make huge rips.
:41:37
No, I don´t-- I still
don´t know how it works.

:41:40
Okay.
:41:42
A two-dollar rip, which is unheard of
anywhere on Wall Street...

:41:46
means that we´re walkin´ away...
:41:49
with two dollars
for every share we sell.

:41:54
Real money.
That´s opportunity.

:41:57
Jesus, Greg, you show him
where the bathroom is yet?

:42:00
Yeah, Seth, I showed you
where Chris´s desk is, right?

:42:03
- Richie, do something with this--
- How does Michael afford that?

:42:08
- Couldn´t tell you.
- Okay.

:42:11
If he´s doin´ it, he´s makin´ money
on it. Point is:

:42:14
Service your client right,
and he´ll be back for more.

:42:16
Show him a three-percent return...
:42:19
and he´ll trust you to
watch his kids for the weekend.

:42:34
- Abby.
- Hey, Seth.

:42:36
- Hi.
- You wanna go get yourself a drink?

:42:40
Yeah.
You want anything?

:42:42
Oh. Okay.
:42:53
I thought this was supposed to
be a big broker hangout.

:42:56
Merrill Lynch. Salomon Brothers.
Mad, big-dick Steve. What is this place?
