[narrator] Previously on Super Pumped.
Show him that you're vulnerable
and need his money and his protection.
-This could be the one, Bill. -How do we know this Kalanick
guy is the chosen one?
Something is going to pop in this space.
I think you're my new VC.
That's what I think too.
This can go so hard for you.
Buried in fines, lawsuits, jail.
[Austin] It's the fucking drivers.
They're defecting.
Gurley. Go to him.
Ask him for another check
to ride us out through this fight.
You're wondering whether this is the moment
I shoot you or sell your company for parts.
-You're gonna come in for more? -Grow or die.
A full access card.
You come and go at UberCab as you please.
I am legit super pumped to be here tonight
and to be part of this company.
Are you sure that you're taking care of you and not just him?
[Travis] This is not our death warrant.
And it's a sign that we are scaring
the taxi and livery industry
and the transportation agency
and the status quo shitless.
-[applause and cheers] -Let's fucking go!
[all, chanting] Let us ride! Let us ride!
-The city has been taken! -[cheers and applause]
Portland, we have a problem.
Good driving.
Thank you.
But you know what, my friend?
Right now, you know what you're doing?
You're living a Judas Priest song.
You know Judas Priest?
Breaking the law Breaking the law
You know that song?
I'm driving under the speed limit.
Nah, it's not about the speed limit.
It's the driving part.
Uber is in violation--
Uber is in blatant violation of the many several laws, rules,
regs regarding the transportation of passengers
in the city of Portland.
That's right, Hasenpfeffer...
I'm with PBOT.
Don't turn to look at the badge,
'cause that's unsafe.
So pull over right over here.
[Chester] I'm just trying to feed my family.
Public safety.
Lack of proper insurance.
Failure to obtain required permits.
And we're gonna impound your car.
I can't pay these. I don't have the money.
Well, that's a you problem.
You as in you.
And U as in Uber.
Take it up with them.
That was easy!
All inside It's so frustrating
As I drift From town to town
Feel as though Nobody cares
If I live or die
So I might as well Begin to put
Some action in my life
Breaking the law Breaking the law
Breaking the law
[Austin] Erich England and PBOT are throwing
everything they have at us.
We're getting rolled.
The drivers are panicking.
I mean, we're losing them. We're losing Portland.
We need a plan. We need a plan now, chief.
Pay the fines, all right? No matter how big.
You make the drivers whole.
-You rally them. -Yeah, I am,
-and they're not listening. -You make them listen.
Without drivers, we don't have a company.
Well, they don't give a shit about the company.
They're losing their cars. It's their whole world.
And there's nothing I can tell them to undo that
or make 'em feel better about it.
No, you are the exact person who can, okay?
You're the most convincing person I know.
Get 'em to hold the line,
while I make sure
this never happens again.
Go do it.
I'll do the same.
[Fenton] Let me go over there, Bill,
offer up some of that expertise
we're always talking up to our founders.
No. You don't teach a kid to sleep through the night
by running into his room every time there's a thunderclap
to make him stop crying.
Well, the kid isn't sleeping on a mattress made of your money.
You know, I tell folks, I bring in my young partners
to keep me honest.
But I'll tell you fellas, pick your spots.
At least go over yourself, get a look at the guy,
see if you think that he's in a balanced place.
Nobody who wills an entire sector into being
is in a balanced place.
Ever.
That whole sector is at risk right now,
and Kalanick could well make it worse.
Bill, you believe in this kid so much
you don't even want to check in?
"Believe" is an apt choice of words.
You know, I used to, uh--
I used to split founders into two groups.
Well, that's not strictly true.
First, when I was younger than you,
I used to think they were all Jesus Christ
because they--
well, their followers never questioned them.
They did actual, provable miracles.
And then I began to see that half of them were indeed
on the side of the angels, and...
half of them were some version of David Koresh.
Well, how do you see the split now?
Oh, they're all Koresh.
The trick is to flee the cult and get out of the compound
the second before they burn it to the ground.
Those Portland fucks. It's systemic extortion.
Yeah, they're attacking our supply hours.
Using our own app against us.
So how about we use one of ours against them?
-Greyball? -Yes. Greyball.
Throw that shit at them like fucking Kwai Chang Caine.
-What did legal say about it? -Fines.
Jail time.
You know, it might be a violation
of the Federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act,
which could, theoretically, cause the government
to impose such strict oversight that Uber collapses into itself
before we even go public.
Well, Jesus Christ, they said all that?
Oh, and if Apple finds out,
Eddy Cue disappears us from the App Store like Hoffa.
[Gurley] Concrete shoes, huh?
Hey, here's a thought:
Maybe whatever it is, we don't do it.
[chuckles]
Portland sounds like a shit show.
-How did you hear--? -We're on it.
Good, because tickets, impounds, arrests,
those aren't necessarily words that inspire confidence
in our investors.
-So how can I help? -You know what, Bill?
You are being so helpful already just by being on top of it
and showing up here, and I am so grateful.
But you don't have to worry about it.
Portland is gonna topple,
and then Seattle, and then Chicago.
And then big finish in New York.
If this were the church of Uber and that were a sermon,
you would be getting hallelujahs and amens.
[laughs]
But I need a little bit more detail on the plan, please.
Why? So you can sign off?
That is not how--
you know what, Bill?
How about we go over all the details
over boat drinks when we're kicking back at X to the X.
You're talking to a guy who loves a cold Painkiller.
So why don't you tell me more about this X to the X.
-Party. -Well, let's not undersell
the guy that loves a good cold Painkiller.
This is not just a party. It's gonna be like the party
that Prince thought he was having in 1999.
And we're throwing it for our troops
when we hit 10 billion revenue.
Oh, X to the X. Ten to the tenth power.
Like the last company party you threw in Miami?
No. This is gonna be totally different from that.
This one is gonna be in Vegas.
And much fucking bigger.
The bad press from Miami is gonna seem adorable
compared to what'll happen now if you do that.
It's one thing to be the underdog,
but the favorite can't be acting like a scrappy upstart.
You need to comport yourself in a manner becoming now.
Like eminent founder-style.
There won't be any more allowances
made by the press, fellas.
I know. I know, but look, look, look, look, look.
Look at them.
Look at all of these super soldiers.
When warriors complete a big mission like this,
they need real R and R.
And we are gonna give it to them.
We find a way to keep it quiet.
Yeah, we'll figure it out.
Of course, if we get blown up in Portland,
and the next city and then the next,
none of the rest happens.
So you might want to focus on that.
And good luck.
Thanks, Bill.
Level with me, would you?
What's going on here?
[scoffs]
We love you, Bill. We really do.
Good. You should.
I'm the one who put you in here.
I'm the one who can take you out too.
No one's taking anyone out.
This isn't a fight.
This is love. Now TK, he loves you too.
He says it all the time.
And if you want to be one of us,
you know, roll up your sleeves, get elbow-deep in pig guts
and help us make the sausage...
... great.
But we all know your value to this place
is not inside a pig's intestines.
So let us do it.
And then...
you just come back for the barbecue.
He's right about the level of risk here.
Yeah, it is risky.
It's sort of like Zuck hitting send on FaceMash in 2003, right?
He asked for a shit-ton of trouble.
Got a fuck-ton.
Do you think it was worth it?
Hey, we're launching Greyball.
Rock and roll.
["Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen playing]
All right. Jake is on the way.
[Tarantino] You do not want to be Greyballed, motherfucker.
And let me tell you why.
Because while you think you can believe
what you're seeing with your eyes,
these technological warlocks
are actually pulling a grey shade over your eyeballs.
Thus: Greyball.
[Quentin] That's the geofence.
A digital perimeter.
Good.
Hendricks, can you break down the targets?
We crunch everything.
Metadata, data-data, social, real estate, credit cards.
Threat matrix built to identify transpo hacks, police,
legislators and staffers,
all tagged with a line of code in the app.
And the code's hidden, yes?
Only people with access are inside this room, understood?
Yup. I understand.
Another one bites the dust Yeah
There comes Jake.
-Nothing. -[Tarantino] Total mindfuck
served up special just for you.
Ghost cars available 24/7,
which means real cars: never.
No.
I didn't cancel the ride.
What?
Uber must be down.
It will fuck you up.
It's like waiting for your man,
wherein your "man" means your smack dealer,
and you are jonesing like Lou Reed in '67.
Only the dealer's already dead and buried
and all shot up with bullets.
He ain't never coming,
no matter how much you're sweating and shaking.
Gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
This guy is completely clueless, isn't he?
If we've done it right. And it ain't just him.
It's like a video game, and we have the cheat code.
Nicely fucking done.
Fuck it. I'm going home.
Taxi!
Boom! You just got Greyballed, motherfucker!
[cheers and applause]
All right, I want you guys to come up
with more shit like this.
Assume it's approved. We have the technical advantage.
We're not gonna let any limp-dick municipality
get in our way.
Get in the way of what?
Change. Freedom.
We are liberating people.
And making a mint doing it.
Is this... legal?
[all laugh]
We got to toughen this kid up.
It's not really illegal if the laws are bullshit
in the first place, right?
Like, Bill Gurley calls it "regulatory capture."
But what he means is that the taxi and limo commission,
they're in bed with the taxi owners.
They're more incestuous than the clans in Deliverance,
and twice as likely to fuck you over too.
Great job, everybody.
All right, everybody!
Listen up!
You want to know what happened when Armstrong planted his flag
on the moon?
He flew right back down to Earth.
But not us. We landed in Portland.
We are staying in Portland.
[cheers and applause]
A couple more cities,
and then it's the Big Apple.
And once we break through there--
I've always said it--
once we take NYC, no more stopping us.
That is the gateway to the rest of the country
and rest of the fucking world!
[cheers and applause]
And so...
so...
after New York, I'm saying right now,
after New York, we are gonna have the biggest blowout
the Valley has ever seen.
-[cheers and applause] -Come on.
I'm not a plausible deniability kind of guy.
You know me, honey.
But that's what they offered me, and in the moment, I took it.
It is not sitting right.
Honey, you can't micromanage the operations
of every company you invest in.
And we talked about this before.
That's-- that's the road to Crazytown.
That's much the same thing I said to my guys.
Hmm.
But this isn't micro.
This is not just some company.
This is the one that changes the zip code.
The problem is--
It's not the relationship you have with your founders, I know.
Phil Jackson and Tex, they built a system around MJ and--
and they trusted he'd function within that system.
As he became a superstar,
he needed Phil's voice less, but...
it was always still there.
He's trying to grow up too fast, before he knows the system.
You're not trying to ground him. You're trying to help him fly.
Doesn't he see that?
I gotta make him see it.
Hey, Bill.
What'd you need?
Transparency.
I need to know what's going on from here on out.
I can ride silent, but I cannot be on the outside.
Okay, and why here?
We going somewhere?
[laughs] Yeah.
Wherever the hell you want.
-[laughs] -You see all these jets?
Most of them are owned by CEOs and founders just like you.
That one, the Bombardier Global Express,
it's owned by Rich Barton.
Guys like Rich, who created Expedia, Zillow,
they call their own shots.
But they worked with their VCs,
because VCs have a purpose other than just writing a check.
I have a purpose: advising, vision shaping.
I'm here to give you wings, not clip 'em.
In exchange, I think I'm owed the transparency.
Well, no, Bill,
you're not owed anything except a return,
which I will give you.
People get that confused.
And yeah, you're right,
there are a lot of folks throughout the Valley
who've done well taking care of the people they owe.
And they have nice houses. And, yeah, a plane.
But then there are the people who told everyone else
to fuck off when the time came.
[laughs]
Now, you really want to impress me?
Show me Larry Ellison's plane. Or Zuck's.
Or Larry and Sergey's.
You can't. They have too many.
They have their whole fucking hangars.
You think Bezos is thinking about his VCs at 30,000 feet?
Or Elon? Elon has fucking rockets.
Those are not people that just killed it with kindness.
Those are kings.
Gods.
You told him about Greyball?
I told him in the future I would tell all,
because I'm not a hard-hearted man.
How'd he take it?
I don't think I give a shit,
but it seems like you do.
I saw that little chat you had with him outside our office.
He put me in this job, so I felt an allegiance.
Mm-hmm.
What about now?
I say we keep Bill close. For now.
But you keep doing what you're doing.
We're killing it.
[Angie] The Google guys are still close with Sequoia
and Kleiner Perkins and their angels.
That's lovely for them.
It is.
I'm gonna go to the ladies' room.
[piano music plays]
[violin music plays]
-[music ends] -[applause]
Who the hell is that?
I have no idea.
[whispers] But I'm gonna find out.
Dude--
[inaudible]
This is Travis Kalanick, founder of Uber.
TK, this is--
-Gabi Holzwarth. -[Travis] Your music...
just blew my mind.
Thank you.
Are you a fan of Manuel Ponce?
Guilty. Yeah. Huge fan.
I haven't broke out his stuff in a while.
Been focusing on the classics lately, but Ponce...
yeah, really changed me.
It's a shame more people don't know about him.
It's a tragedy.
Your secret's safe with me.
[laughs]
So where can I see you play again?
The San Francisco Symphony?
Soon. Right now, I play first chair every Saturday
at the Palo Alto farmers' market.
In the parking lot.
-I see. -[laughs]
It's a bit different than this,
but there is something spiritual
about playing for people that didn't pay for tickets.
Right, because you're just playing for yourself.
-Exactly. -Yeah.
There's no expectation. No judgment.
No pressure to be perfect.
It's just about connecting.
Mm-hmm.
They're just going about their day,
and you get a chance to change them, you know?
Yeah, well, I am all about changing people's lives.
Angie? Hey.
May I introduce you to Gabi?
Nice to meet you. You're very talented.
Your version of "Estrellita" was gorgeous.
Thank you. Well, I'd better get back to it.
It was so nice meeting you.
[Travis] And you.
What'd you say to her?
I told her she needed to meet the next Jeff Bezos.
[classical music playing over laptop]
-[music turns off] -Hey.
You coming to bed?
I actually-- I have to review some more of this data.
I'll be in in a minute.
[music resumes]
I close my eyes
Only for a moment
And the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes
A curios--
[music turns off]
You are going to be misunderstood.
And that's okay.
People not comprehending your vision
is a sign that nobody has gone where you're going.
It's also a sign of insanity, but...
[laughs]
Good leaders are right a lot.
These 14 principles of Amazon
are a crucial part of my success.
These core values are the most important thing
I came up with for the company.
Customer obsession, ownership, invent and simplify,
leaders are right, a lot.
Learn and be curious, hire and develop the best,
insist on the highest standards,
think big,
bias for action, frugality,
earn trust, dive deep, have a backbone.
Oh, and last one, the hardest one.
Success and scale bring broad responsibility.
[inhales and sighs]
Hey.
Thoughts?
It's a look.
[doorbell rings]
And that would be the boys.
[Garrett] Okay, we've got bigge issues than Travis' hair.
We knew we'd get through
and have to go after the actual giant.
I don't see a way forward without taking New York,
and I know you don't either, TK.
-It's time. -No. Definitely not.
It's New York fucking City,
and the Taxi and Limo Commission is as wired there
as Sinatra was in the '50s.
They roll heavy there.
The mayor loves their votes,
-loves their money. -It's not San Francisco.
Bunch of water bottles isn't going to work there.
[Graves] Can Austin handle it?
I mean, maybe we need to send in some pro
who can bushwhack the red tape.
Don't serve. No! We have plenty of people in that town,
and she can lead them.
Every time we drop Austin into a city, she delivers.
She's cracking fucking skulls. It's frontier entrepreneurship.
She wrote the playbook. Bill, what do you think?
Myself, I'd load up on personnel.
But if you have this much faith in her--
I do. We wouldn't be winning this war without her.
Well, then she's our boots on the ground.
Good. Moving on.
How are we going to compete with the subway,
buses and yellow cab?
[grunts] Well...
let's start with why.
Assuming we can poach the whole cab industry,
that's 700,000 trips a day, average $20 a ride,
that's $14 million daily.
But that is not the main reason why.
The New York City taxicab driver is an indentured servant.
He's forced to work his whole shift
for the benefit of some guy who owns his car,
or he has to mortgage his entire future
to buy some medallion from a loan shark taxi bank
that's worse than a payday lender.
[sighs]
We just have to wake them up to the facts, all right?
If we can message this right, the drivers--
and, by the way, the passengers--
all of New York City is gonna be shouting "Viva la revolution!"
Come on, okay, Well, first of all,
De Blasio is gonna come after us.
We're outmanned and overmatched.
Do we need to play some fucking Enya music for you here?
[laughs] You need to, like, sail away?
Come on.
-Oh, fuck off. -Got to watch.
-You know, it's a valid point. -People are gonna be with us.
Ask any hard-core New Yorker about it,
they'll tell you taxis suck.
They smell. A lot of drivers hide their identity,
pretend their credit card machines don't work,
and they have no respect for the customer,
especially non-white ones who can't even get a damn cab.
It's happened to me.
We are the answer to all this.
We're on the right side of history with this.
If we just show them the way, they'll see it.
[Gurley] Travis is right.
You're right.
[Garrett] Still, New York's fucking hard.
It's Cosa Nostra.
So we just have to fight with that same Mafia mentality.
["Spin the Black Circle" by Pearl Jam plays]
[Travis] The Mafia started in Italy
because it stepped in where the state was failing.
We will flood the streets of New York,
send Ubers where taxis won't go.
We raise prices at peak hours when demand is surging
to encourage more drivers to take to the streets.
[Austin] I make the drivers understand
that it's about supply and demand.
[Travis] Dynamic pricing is the biggest value proposition
in modern American business.
You know you're on your way up
when they slap a target on your back.
[De Blasio] This is my city.
Play by my rules, or I'll bury you.
I will cap the number of Uber drivers on the road
and force you into submission.
[grunts]
You got to get their respect. Never back down from a fight.
And sometimes you gotta play dirty.
Show everyone the long wait times
if De Blasio's cap goes into effect.
[Austin] And then we weaponize every rider's hand.
Yes, we ask-- no, we offer--
our riders the chance to raise their voices with us, for us.
And they will,
because they need what we are selling.
And once they unite behind us...
we'll take the city.
You're so warm
Oh, the ritual
When I lay down...
Here's to Uber being officially in New York City!
[all cheer]
Long may we rule!
Hey, thanks for tonight.
Oh, yeah. Any time.
Yeah, next time you're drinking with us.
Not on a school night.
Uh, hey, um, I wanted to say thank you.
Since I started driving for Uber,
I finally, like, squirreled away some money
in my kid's college fund.
Aw. Man, you're welcome.
[chuckles]
You have a good night.
Get the fuck out of my city!
Hey, what the--?
Fucking Jesus! Fuck you!
[tires squeal]
God!
-Hi. -[Travis] Hey, you did it!
[Travis chuckles]
We did.
-How rough? -Oh, um...
-You know. -Yeah.
Well, remember, you're nobody if you don't make any enemies.
Thank you.
It's nothing.
No, uh...
thank you.
The minibar, I...
I know what you did,
and that you were thinking about me.
I just didn't know if you'd have time to make it
to any meetings and, yeah,
I need my lieutenant in tip-top form.
No, I'm good.
And, you know, it wasn't just me.
The whole team was-- they were--
It wasn't the team.
It was you.
[indistinct chatter]
[woman] Hey, Travis.
-Travis, what's up? -Hey, TK, lookin' forward to the big surprise.
TK?
[man] Hey, Travis?
Glad we're under the radar.
Yeah, there's no branding.
No company logos.
I see that.
Where's, uh, Angie?
She's sitting this one out.
Fucking New York.
Ten billion.
[laughs]
Let's go grab that drink. You've earned it.
Excuse me.
Well, look who's here.
Kind of like finding a rattlesnake in your boot.
Just don't make any sudden moves.
I'm sure we'll be fine.
[reporter] Look at them.
You have an angle?
So far, I can't get anyone to talk,
but I'll keep at it.
There's dirt out there, and I've brought a shovel.
-I don't even have to-- -No, no, you don't.
It's all on lock. Security measures are in place.
A strict code of conduct for Uber employees.
Complete social media blackout, wristbands to access events.
Even if they think we're partying,
there'll be no proof, there's no trace.
Bartender.
[bartender] Yes sir?
Set us up with a Don Julio 70
and, uh, those folks down at the end,
give them a round on me, please.
Classic.
It might buy us some goodwill, but not silence.
I'm telling you, you don't have to worry, man.
We told everyone exactly what to do.
And what not to.
Because you are family and we love you,
we have come up with a set of rules to limit any career...
Limiting...
[Travis] Limiting-- career-limiting moves.
No CLMs, got it.
[Emil] Drugs.
Just pot and E?
No drugs.
-In public. -That's for sure.
-Okay. Yeah. Okay. -No sex with other employees.
-Unless two people-- -Or more--
[laughs]
Yeah, okay. Agree to it.
Use protection.
No lives should begin or end at X to the X.
We're gonna send this out by email?
Yeah, we'd better, so it lands.
But you make a good point.
Keep confidential things confidential.
-Like this email. -Yeah, yeah, like, uh...
no rev stats, internal figures.
Yeah, no, nothing with the company name or logo.
No shop talk. And whatever you do,
do not talk to the fucking press, okay?
That's it. Done. Nailed. Send it company-wide.
-[bottles clink] -Company-wide?
No, TK, this will leak.
If I put my faith in anything, it's got to be in my guys.
All right? Just like they put their faith in me.
Now, if I want them to stay quiet about something,
they're going to make Silent Bob look chatty as Tracy Flick.
Send it. Let's go pack for Vegas.
Yeah, I don't think I'll be making this trip.
By email?
You don't...
You know what?
Here's to you taking measures,
whether they fall short or not.
And to our fail safe.
[glasses clink]
Fuck it, I'm not gonna let a free gin and tonic stop me.
I'm going in.
Hey, Travis?
Care to comment on what this event is all about?
Oh, fuck. It's Whetbaker.
Goddamn. Rachel, Jill--
Why do you have such a hard-on for my client?
This is an internal company event.
Do they show up and bother you
about your reporting at your paper's
Friday all-you-can-eat wings night at Chili's?
Whetstone and Hazelbaker.
You hired a comms team.
We did.
All questions go through me or Whetstone.
You got nannies for your Uberettos.
That's a goddamn grown-up move, Travis.
Nothing that happens here is gonna get back to the press.
Unless we want it to.
[Travis] Tonight, Travis isn't speaking.
Instead it's time for a lesson from Prof. Kalanick.
[cheers and applause]
Now, there are fuckers out there that are gonna say we got lucky.
Is that what you think?
[all] No!
All right, because you work your asses off, right?
[all] Yes!
But also check this. You did get lucky. We all did.
Because we found each other.
And we get to work at the greatest company on earth.
[all] Yes!
A world-changer. A world-mover.
A company that believes...
in these core values.
[cheers and applause]
Pretty good, right?
Check these out.
Number one: A: always be hustling.
Always be hustling.
At Uber, we put in the blood and the sweat
required to get the job done at all times.
We work harder, we work longer, and we work smarter.
Not just two out of the three. We never stop hustling, right?
[cheers and applause]
Number two:
revolutions are won by true believers.
So be an owner, not a renter.
The fully committed, zealous Uberetto
owns the work that they do each and every day.
Austin.
Ladies and gentlemen, Austin Geidt.
-[cheers and applause] -Now, she--
she is the walking embodiment of this core value.
Austin paves a path to victory in every city.
-Let her hear you! -[all cheer]
Now, all these values are important.
But for me, there's one that rides high above the rest.
Number 12:
being super pumped.
Being super pumped gives us superpowers.
Taking the biggest problems,
turning them into amazing opportunities
to do great things.
So are we lucky?
Fuck yes, we are!
Because we get to be super pumped 24/7,
three-sixty-motherfucking-five!
[cheers and applause]
[man] Yes!
You know, one day--
one day, we're not just gonna be transporting
customers in cars.
We're gonna exist in a place
where bits and atoms come together.
I am Uber.
You are Uber.
But we're not just a technology.
We're a technology that moves cities
and their citizens.
So I want you to take these core values,
but don't just take 'em to heart.
I want you to fucking inhale them
so they become your oxygen
as we continue to conquer
not just transportation,
but the world!
[cheers and applause]
Whoo!
Yeah!
All right, now, I want to introduce you
to our newest investors and shareholders.
Ladies and gentlemen...
Jay-Z and Beyoncé!
[cheers and applause]
[cell phone vibrates]
-Hey. -Hey.
I've been thinking about you.
-Yeah, me too. -I can hardly hear you.
Is that Beyoncé?
Yes, it is.
[laughs]
Oh, my-- okay, um, call me when you're back.

Sign the NDA. Just sign right there.
Alright, thank you sir.
Twenty-five goddamn--
that is a comma and a lot of fucking zeroes.
Yeah, yeah, man, the total is $25 million,
but that does include all room charges,
and the, uh, continental breakfast.
Oh, well, those were really good blueberry muffins, so...
[laughs]
Hey, Bill.
Get some sleep?
Travis, you know I didn't. Not a wink.
And it wasn't because of the music.
-It was all the goddamned music. -Yeah.
Well, they're an exuberant bunch.
Yeah.
Got to let them off the leash sometimes.
You'll be amazed at the productivity we see
when we they get back to work.
[Gurley] Did they--
from up there?
[all cheering]
I didn't think that was possible.
Yeah, but-- yeah, yeah.
The launch angle times the velocity...
They're engineers.
Yeah.
[car horn blaring]
[Amy] Hey.
I brought you a clean shirt.
I've got to get back and get the kids to school.
-Mm. -Thank you.
-Would you? -Yeah. Move.
How was it?
Oh, uh...
kind of like Waco.
Thing is, he pulled it off.
But it was a...
you know, more like a streak shooter
when he nails a 40-footer to win the game.
You're happy for the W but, you know--
You might be in for a long season.
Might could be that Waco turns into Jonestown, yes.
How are you gonna stop that?
Figure out a way to make sure
that the Flavor Aid and water never meet.
You changed your hair.
[both chuckle]
I like it. Yeah.
It's, um-- it's more hip.
Thanks.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Yeah?
I got a call from Angie.
Why didn't you tell me? I mean...
what happened?
It just ran its course.
I met somebody new.
I think you'd really like her, actually.
Well...
[scoffs]
What?
Travis, you can't just dispose of people
in your life like that,
especially somebody who stood by you.
Mom, it wasn't like that, okay?
I took care of her.
We're still gonna be in each other's lives.
We're still gonna talk every day.
I did it right.
We were crying in each other's arms.
We just both knew that it was time to...
set out on our own separate journeys.
I just can't fucking do it anymore, all right?
I want... different.
Different level of commitment?
Different dynamics? Different bodies?
Yeah. All of that. Different.
Just-- you know, I wish I didn't, but--
[scoffs]
[sighs]
Look, I'm sorry.
Like I said, I wish it didn't.
You can take your time moving out.
I'll stay with Crystal for a few days.
Oh, I'm moving out?
-Well, yeah. It's my-- -No, no, no.
I can't lose the Jam Pad.
It's for work.
It really means that much to you?
Yes. It's where I do all my best thinking.
Okay, look, how about this?
I'm gonna set you up in a new apartment, right?
Anywhere you like. You pick.
And I'll buy you out of this place.
Okay.
I guess I was just your seed round.
[door closes]
All right. Get home safe.
I will.
You be good.
Of course.
Don't sweet-talk your mother and say "Of course."
-[chuckles] -You do it.
All right.
Love you.
Excuse me. Hi.
Could you just tell me,
what made you choose Lyft instead of Uber?
Uh, well, it's so much cheaper,
and the drivers are super-friendly.
All right. Got it. Buddy, I was thinking of becoming a driver.
What do I need to know?
Here, man. We make more money.
And we get tips.
That's something I never got driving for Uber.
Yeah, I'm looking at rider bonuses,
driver appreciation parties.
I mean, these motherfuckers, they're stealing all my shit.
Oh, we are going to fucking war.
