Previously on House of lies...
This, "W-O-N" stands
for "wholesome, organic nutrition."
This is a grand slam.
I just need your team to get me to that ipo, and...
Until you can get your shit together, we're done.
Go to the board,
tell them you're stepping aside
for personal reasons, and ask that they vote Marissa
to be the new chairwoman.
And just turn everything over
to our little junkie sister who treats rehab
like winter vacation.
Oh, we're gonna need to move this along,
'cause this is usually when I shoot up.
Well, there's no fucking way you guys make it to an ipo now.
Yeah.
There's no way you can go public with either one of you
being the face of the company.
But we can make it work
because you don't have any other choice.
Well, I know one thing's for sure.
We're not gonna be the blood brothers
on the corners that we once were.
Damn sure ain't brothers no more.

These assholes and their prop 8 bullshit.
When I think about the courage you had,
coming out to us in college, and this is where we are in society?
It's enough to move out of the state.
Okay.
How are you and Kate?
Not so great, Jeannie. We broke up two years ago.
Whoa. Are you seeing anyone new?
Look, Jeannie, I know you don't do social calls, that's fine.
Pretending like that's what this is-- a little insulting.
So, what can I do for you?
The department of justice is taking bids
on a new consulting contract
that kaan & associates would be perfect for.
And I just thought, with your appointment
to special assistant Attorney General--
congrats on that, by the way--
thank you.
If there was anything that you could do to help us land it,
I would just be, um... Really, really grateful.
Wow. Really?
I'm sorry. It's a force of habit. Mm-hmm.
This is a big contract.
I always thought of you guys as more boutique.
Well, we're growing fast. We just signed mcclintock media.
Um, we have U.S. national bank,
dollahyde apparel, colossal foods...
Dollahyde?
As in dre Collins and Lukas frye dollahyde?
You know them?
Yeah, and not 'cause I'm such a big swag whore.
When I was at the d.A.'S office,
Lukas frye was a major fixture in the drug world.
He still is.
I don't know anything about that.
That will be the last time
I insult your intelligence, I promise.
Look, Jeannie, I could make a few calls
and get you this contract.
I mean, hell, I want to.
Having someone with your ambition
owing me a favor this big?
But? But you are in business with a drug dealer.
This is a contract with the department of justice.
It's a non-starter.
What if we dropped dollahyde?
Well, then, we'd be in business.
But you better drop 'em soon.
Like, today. The longer you wait,
the harder it is to sell your shock and outrage
at the discovery of their situation.
All right.
I will be in touch.
What? Wait a second. Where you going?
Don't you want to see some pictures of my niece?
I deserve that.
Hey. Hey. We got
to go over these dollahyde projections before
the bloomingdale's meeting.
Okay, I have news, and you're gonna want to sit down.
Oh, no. Wait a minute.
Jeannie, how many times do I have to say it? Birth control.
No. No. No?
This is good news. Oh.
I think that I just landed us a multiyear contract
with the department of justice.
That is huge. Yes.
And the small caveat is that we need to dump dollahyde,
like, today.
Oh, so that's a big caveat.
Well...
My connection made it very clear
that they're not interested in... a friend? It's a friend?
Yes. A friend, and she's very high up over there.
Well, she must be atmos-fuckin'-pheric
if she can just hand out government contracts like that.
You know, there's usually a whole process that...
That's the point, Marty. That's why we need
to dump dollahyde-- for the vetting process.
Marty, do you have any idea?
This would put us in a league with
kinsley, with demark, with galweather.
Or with the galweather before I destroyed them.
Well, look, I appreciate the effort. Fuck the effort.
Appreciate the accomplishment.
Jeannie, I don't think this is the time
to jettison a top-tier client just because
a friend of yours Marty...
Promised you some big contract.
I... Listen,
dollahyde is about to pay dividends.
Do you understand that?
Do you really think,
after everything that happened in Compton,
this little detente
between Lukas and dre is really gonna stick?
Now is the time to cut our losses.
After everything that's happened,
we are this close to the finish line.
Doesn't... listen, let's just take the meeting
with bloomingdale's, and then we'll see where we're at.
Okay. Okay.
Yeah, okay.
What are you doing?
Rubbing your shoulders.
It helps soothe my mother when she's upset.
I'm fine, thank you.
You don't look fine.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, she said she's fine, all right?
Don't you have a creepy motel to go run?
Yeah. 'Cause fuck me for caring, right?
Good lord, get out of here.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Don't you say...
No. It's so unprofessional.
It's fine. It's just...
My boyfriend and I broke up last night.
S... s... sucks. That sucks.
God... I know.
Yeah. It's just, like, one bump in the road,
and he was just out.
It's typical. So t...
God, that just ticks me off.
Hey, you know what? You know what?
I'm kind of going through the same thing with my wife.
God, what am I saying?
My, um, former wife.
You can still work things out.
No, thank you. Thank...
. No, no, no.
I think that ship has sailed.
Yeah. Looks like you and I are in the same boat.
Snug, tight little boat.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, don't say that.
I should be saying sorry to you.
You're the one going through a fresh breakup.
Hey, you know what we should do?
We should go out tonight.
Yeah.
Take our minds off things.
I don't know if I would be any fun.
Okay, so, what are we gonna do?
Sit at home alone, in the dark, staring at the walls?
I mean, no.
We're gonna let those people, those people who have vastly
disappointed us, those--
dare I say, emotional terrorists-- win?
You know what?
You're right.
Uh-huh. Let's go out tonight.
Yeah, I think... Yeah.
I think it's probably good.
I think it's good. Yeah.
Thank you.
I think so. Yeah.
Be cool, Doug. Be cool.
Don't shit the bed on this one.

Oh. Listen, I love it when you come to town,
but you are a master of distraction.
Well, then this shouldn't come as a surprise.
Do you remember when you were in sober living
because your siblings concocted this insane lie
that you had a drug problem?
No, but this is just a little treat while I'm on vacation.
Oh. Okay, you know, you've been in charge for two weeks, right?
Right, and now
I'm on vacation, so, are you gonna join me or what?
No, no. I'm really late for work. I got to get going.
Fuck work. Are you serious?
After everything you've done for them?
Fuck being late. They should be
sucking your dick right now.
By the way, I'm with you, dude.
I've been making the old
"you guys should be sucking my dick" argument
for fucking years now.
Here it is-- of course, next to the butter.
Seriously, you brought them me,
the biggest piece of business.
Not to mention, the sweetest piece of ass.
Stop deflecting. But at the same time...
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. They should be treating you like

Okay, hey? Yup.
Come do some lines with me, or mcclintock media's not gonna be

Really? Just like that, huh?
You're kidding, right?
That's a joke? You're making funnies?
Of course I'm kidding.
I mean, I think I'm kidding.
No.
I am, I'm kidding.
I'm totally kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

Get in here!
Saks fifth Avenue, maybe h&m,
we should be chillin', you know what I mean?
Mm-hmm, well, checking out this here bottom line,
I'm actually interested
in hearing what barneys has to say.
I'm with that.
Fellas, fellas.
Hey, what's happening? Hey.
Marty.
So, uh, Jeannie is in with the bloomindgale's rep right now
oh. Going over some numbers.
Mm. Is she?
Let's do this.
So, dre, lis... listen, I got to tell you, um...
We got to make a fucking deal, man.
I mean, bloomingdale's today,
got barneys tomorrow, h&m next week.
Personally, I-I don't give a fuck
which one it is, but...
This has to happen, okay? Or... or I'm done.
We're done.
Look, whatever you have to do to make the deal happen, all right?
And, once again, I really appreciate
you sticking with me through this.
Yeah, you should.
Let's do it.
Now, look...
About that whole... Zhang incident,
no... let's just... let's... I just wanted to let you know I wasn't
let's squash it. Let's squash it, okay? On some bullshit.
Fuck that, let's do this.
Fuck it, let's do it.
Vincent, you have created
an incredible product.
And with it, we can build you an empire.
But not if you tie my hands like this.
No, no, forget it, forget it. If-if we just...
No. If we make a real push in the youth market
where this product has shown significant growth,
then I really... No. No, no, no, no, no, no.
The fact is college kids are using this
as a diet supplement and an energy stimulant.
And we would be crazy
not to capitalize on that... Won is not a diet supplement.
It's not an energy stimulant, okay?
I-it's a meal replacement, okay?
Can you wrap your-your little "material girl"
brain around what that means?
This product could end world hunger!
And you want to sell it as an energy drink?
Fuck... that.
Uh-huh. Fuck it.
I agree, I agree...
Dinner-- that's the play, right?
I'd think so-- I mean, you can sit, talk, connect.
Or is that a little cliché? Maybe.
Ooh, there is that, uh, fellini retrospective
on at the Egyptian.
You know what? I bet she'd love that.
That feels better. Yeah.
Don't you think? Clyde? Hello?
Clyde, are you listening? What? Yes, I'm listening. I am absolutely listening.
Caitlin's in a vulnerable place, so you're gonna try to use that
to fuck her brains out, I got you, so shut the fuck up.
How dare you! Don't cheapen it. No, uh, uh-uh. How dare you!
Okay? You don't just fuck a girl like Caitlin. Oh, my God,
I'm so sorry, polite Doug.
Um, make love her brains out.
No. That's not what's going on here. No?
Then what is it? Uh, Caitlin and I happen to have
a very special connection.
You're a fucking child. I'm not. You're a fucking child.
You are. Okay? Is it a coincidence
that Sarah and I have separated
at the exact same time that Caitlin's
broken up with her boyfriend?
I think not. I think not. I think so.
I think so. I think not.
♪ I think so... ♪ ♪ I think not... ♪
♪ oh... ♪ ♪ not... ♪
That was pretty cool, actually. Nice. Okay.
Who is that guy, by the way, going toe-to-toe
with the dragon lady? Oh, shit, that's Vincent.
The-the-the creator of won. What is that?
Is that that brown, disgusting stuff you drink like come?
Uh, okay, that disgusting, brown drink that I guzzle down like come
has saved me from having to purchase a meal in over a week,
so I'll take the come. I can't believe
Marty took her on as a client, man.
That's bullshit. That's a slap in the face,
is what that is, man. After all the fuckin' work
I've done for this company, now heas the balls
to just bring that fuckin' bitch back. Shh, shh.
Would you calm down?
Get the fuck out of my face. Okay, okay.
Oh, God, he looks pissed. That's not good.
He must have found out about the focus groups today.
What is that? What focus groups?
Well, Monica's exploring market segmentation strategies,
so she asked me to set up these focus group testing,
but Vincent would be pissed if he found out about it.
Oh, God, she's coming this way, she's coming this way.
Monica, I swear I didn't say a word about the focus groups.
He doesn't know anything.
Now, if you're done shitting yourself,
you follow me.
What is that? Why?
Oh, I don't know.
You're just, you're funny.
Like a... Not in a funny ha-ha way,
but more of, like,
a sad-clown funny. Oh...
Come on.
Let's get to work.
Hey, Vincent? Vincent?
Vincent? What's going on, man?
I'm Clyde oberholt. I'm a huge fan.
Why don't you let me buy you lunch, huh? What?
I don't eat lunch. Okay, right, of course.
You're a genius-- why would you eat lunch?
Why don't you watch me eat?
This, like, a sex thing, or...?
No. No, but it'll still be worth your while.
I promise.
What you've created here is very impressive.
I appreciate that.
Well, you know, you won't find a tighter-run ship
in the apparel industry.
And that ain't braggin'. That's all due
to the business acumen of my man dre here.
However, it isn't business
that bloomingdale's is interested in, is it?
It's the very swagger and essence...
That is dollahyde.
And that, I must say,
would be me.
If we were to strike a deal, Mr. Vincent,
I would need a say
over our marketing and our presence in your store.
You want final approval on our floor displays.
Well, I can't have you fuckin' up my essence,
now, can I, Mr. Vincent?
And that would be a deal breaker.
Mr. Vincent, dollahyde has
been in double-digit growth in its profit margin
since its inception.
What Lukas is offering you isn't a deal breaker,
it's a deal maker.
Okay. We could make that work.
All right, so first thing you got to do is change the taste,
'cause it tastes like fuckin'... ass.
I kind of like the taste.
Does anyone else hate the taste? Oh, my God! Monica,
we are shocked!
Shocked that there's focus group testing
going on in here!
Vincent!
We are just collecting data.
It's very standard.
Okay, also, my friend says that
it makes his girlfriend super horny.
Is-is he full of shit?
Uh, Vincent... Uh, it's...
It's a... it's... Vincent...
All right, next question...
I am going to literally kill you for this.
You might want to put a leash on your former meal ticket first.
- Fuck you! - Fuck...
You, you fuckin' asshole!
No, do not
look at me like that. Fuck her.
This has been a long time coming.
All that shit she put me through? Okay, yeah, but you know
she's gonna tell Marty. Yes, fine, and he'll have a good laugh.
I don't think so, man. Fine! If he doesn't, then fuck him!
- Fuck him? - Yes!
What's the matter with you? N... oh.
You're acting crazy. Just take a breath. Why?
Why should I take a fucking breath?
Because it took you a long time to get out of Marty's doghouse.
Okay? It wasn't easy, but you did it, huh?
Who let the dogs out, huh? You! You!
You! You! You! No, no, no, no.
That business that Monica's bringing him,
that's fucking penny-ante bullshit
compared to the work that I brought to Marty,
so I feel like I earned this moment.
Okay! If you take that away from me, fuck you, man!
Focus group over! Everybody...
Get out! Thank you very much.
Sorry, who's this?
Who am I? I'm the guy about to end world hunger.
You're the assholes with nothing better to do
in the middle of the afternoon on a fucking Wednesday.
And I'm so sorry, bro,
guess you'll have to stick with rohypnol
and zima to get laid, man.
What the fuck is zima?
What's zima?
Man, you haven't lived.
Okay, Vincent,
I think you made your point.
No, no, here's my point.
Fuck him!
Fuck them!
Yes.
And most of all, fuck... you!
Hm.
Oh...
And that's...
The ball game.
Holy shit.
I'm so happy you could see it.
Damn it!
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
My, my my.
That could not have gone better,
could it? All right.
Now who's looking out for that dollahyde name?
You looking out for that dollahyde name.
Goddamn right. So we have
barneys tomorrow, right? Yep.
Well, hey, man, why don't we go and have us a little dinner.
My treat. We could do a little strategizing and whatnot, man,
and I'll put down for somewhere fancy--
don't even worry about it, dre. Somewhere chi-chi enough
that they serve that dish
that they banned everywhere that dre likes so much.
What the fuck is it called, the one with the exploding ducks and shit?
Foie gras.
Yeah, man! "Four-a-gwah," man.
We gonna have some
"four-a-gwah" for my man dre here, man.
Hey, uh, Marty, Jeannie, expect a call from my secretary,
'cause they will be hitting you up with the details, all right?
- See you guys later? - Great.
Hey, which one of y'all motherfuckers is my secretary?
To my office, expeditiously.
Goddamn Lukas-- I'm telling you that motherfucker is a trip.
And you're okay with what just happened?
Being marginalized?
You think because I was laughing that I'm okay with it?
Way to keep the deal in play, Marty boy.
Good shit, as always.
Thank you.
See you at dinner?
Yeah. Dinner it is.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, "being marginalized"? You have to say that?
We're still not dumping them? After that?
Listen, we are way past the point of no return with them.
The only way to get through this fucking quagmire is to no, we're not...
Push through. Are you really trying to sell me that this is what's best
for our company, Marty? Does everything has to be a fucking argument with you?
: Okay.
What? What does "okay" mean?
Okay, I'm done arguing with you.
Okay.
He was fucking yelling at her, really yelling at her,
then out of nowhere, bam!
Bitch slap. A real bitch slap. Yeah?
Partnership over. It was fucking magnificent. Yeah, that sounds great.
Are you fucking serious? Stop. That's all you have to say to me? "It sounds great"?
Yeah. Are you nuts, dude? Haven't you worked for her before?
I never had a problem with Monica.
Of course you didn't have a problem with Monica. I didn't.
Asshole!
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No. Vincent. I had no idea you were gonna be here, buddy.
What's going on? I have nothing to say to you, Clyde.
No, we can chat for a little bit, though.
Vincent! So...
It's a funny story, actually. I don't...
After our little, uh, mm, unpleasantness,
Vincent saw the light.
I'm usually so much better
at spotting the ones that need a good slap though.
I don't know what happened.
But anyways, he finally opened up to the idea
of soaking these college kids for untold millions,
which is a necessary evil
to finance the changing of the world.
I'm gonna make so much
fucking money off of this,
and I just wanted to...
Thank you.
Great. All right. Cool.
All right. Hmm.
Oh, another piece of advice.
What?
Don't come to work high.
Some people can pull it off.
I can pull it off.
You just look silly.
The fuck ever happened to karma, man?
'Cause this is insane, dude.
What the fuck ever happened to karma
because this is bullshit. Do you see that?!
You can do whatever the fuck you want! It doesn't matter!
Do whatever you want, guys!
I love that this is becoming, like, our little spot.
We're not dropping dollahyde.
Okay.
Then what are we doing here?
What if I could deliver some incriminating financial records
on Lukas frye and dre Collins?
Could we trade that for the DOJ contract?
Absolutely.
Then that's what we'll do.
What?
What's your play here, Jeannie?
I mean, don't get me wrong,
I'll gladly take what you're offering, but...
It just seems like a messier way to get what you want.
Yes, it is.
What are we gonna do tonight? Okay.
Well, I was thinking we get some dinner. Mm-hmm.
Uh, but there's a fellini retrospective on at the Egyptian later,
if you're interested. Oh, my God. Doug. Shut up.
You shut up. I love fellini.
I thought you might.
Good night, guys.
"Good night, guys."
What the fuck is that?
Um, I'm not sure. I don't know.
So, hey, uh, I'm just gonna grab my stuff and let's make a move.
Yeah. Okay.
So, what do you think of will?
Will? Yeah.
Uh, will's... the worst.
So... I mean, why are we talking about will?
: Okay... because he's kind of the reason
that my boyfriend broke up with me.
We were drunk on the road one night and we hooked up.
And it was a huge mistake.
Huh.
Okay. Naughty.
But, uh, you know, a-as long as you learned from it, right?
Yeah. No, I definitely know better than to hook up yeah.
With someone at work. Ooh, no-- hold on-- I'll stop you there.
I don't think that's the lesson, actually. No, I mean, he's cute, but...
Is he though? I don't really see it.
But he cost me a relationship with a really great guy.
Mmm.
God, I guess that Chicago trip was really a disaster
for both of us.
Hold on. You... you and...
- You and will hooked up in, uh... - In Chicago?
Yeah.
You know what, I shouldn't have brought this up.
Can we just forget about it? Yeah. Right.
I'm sorry. But when-when did you have the time?
Just because we were together for so much of it.
We went to the art exhibit, and I'm just trying to think Doug...
Of when you squeezed him in, so to speak. Can we not?
But... yeah. Mm-hmm.
Sure. Not another word.
So...
Chicago...
Right under my fucking nose. You know,
Doug, um...
I'm not really sure what you want from me here,
but I could really just use a friend right now.
Okay, well...
Maybe you should've thought of that before you...
Went and fucked will in Chicago, okay?
Oh, my God.
I can't believe this.
You were gonna use my painful breakup,
your separation from your wife
to manipulate me? So that
you could do what, try to fuck me?
I... no. Okay, no. All right?
I was gonna wait a respectful
amount of time before... wow. You know what, Doug, fuck you, okay?
You're the emotional terrorist.
I'm the emotional terrorist?
That's what I said!
Well, you... you're...
You're... um...
Come on.
Your pussy's ground zero... shit.
Shit!
Hey.
Hey... hey, I have moved from this spot
since you last saw me. I was on a conference call
for, like, at least an hour. What are you doing tomorrow?
What? Nothing.
I'm in.
Do you have any more coke?
How dare you.
Of course I have more coke.
