I asked you who you are.
Uh, d-do you see what you've done?
You've created a character
you think you're supposed to create, but, Marty,
really, the best D&D characters are personal.
They're extensions of ourselves,
of who we are, who we want to be.
Our hopes and fantasies.
So come on, Marty.

What do you dream about?
Oof.
(CHUCKLES) Okay.
Um, right now, I am dreaming about being the guy
who is punching you right in the face.
That's great.
All right. (CHUCKLES)
So for character traits, let's write down "combative,"
uh, "short-tempered."
Hey, Doug, dial it back a thousand,
or I'm gonna punch you right in your fucking face.

So you're not gonna get fat off of it.
You're playing Dungeons and Dragons.
You got rejected by a girl.
You're, like, some headgear away from getting
the shit beaten out of you in a John Hughes movie.
I'm sorry, I got to say
I kind of liked it, playing D&D.
Whatever, dork.
(PHOEBE FUSSING)
Bye, Phoebes.
(MARTY) Ladies and gentlemen,
Davis/Dexter's patent extension strategy is played out.
There just aren't enough drugs
in the pipeline to keep re-patenting.
And with the R&D improprieties, the inevitable PR backlash
makes putting a new line of drugs into the pipeline even
more crucial to Davis/Dexter's long-term security.
Douglas.
Of course, now we've identified several prospects
currently in development.
Next-gen antibiotics, immunotherapies,
and some potentially ground-breaking advances
in the soon-to-be huge market of food allergy drugs.
By fast-tracking these projects,
Davis/Dexter's future growth is all but assured.
That is, of course, unless someone
beats them to market.
Someone like you fine folks here at Novax.
But, uh, you didn't hear that from me.
Hear what?
(LAUGHTER)
This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Yeah, right.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
- Well done. - Thank you. Appreciate it.
(LOW CHATTER NEARBY)
(CLEARS THROAT)
Say thank you.
Why?
(CHUCKLES)
Because I'm a fucking mad warlock genius.
Just say thank you.
No.
I heard the pitch to Teddy went well.
Oh, it did, it did.
But not quite as well
as the pitch went to Novax.
Marty.
Gling!
They expressed their gratitude with a big ol' check.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)
You know what, let's...
let's get the fuck out of Dodge.
I'm here till next Friday.
"Next Fri..."? Jeannie?
Fuck next Friday!
Fuck these guys.
Okay, fuck 'em.
