(toilet flushes) (zippers) - (groans) - (faucet runs) (hip-hop music playing) (music stops) So, uh we initially brought you in as a partner.
Um which was really good.
It was great.
Um, and then we all agreed that we would go out and we would find more investors.
And so that's what we did.
We all, uh we-we We need to move on without you, dude.
Nick: This is our, um This is our offer.
Will you just hand that to him? This is offer.
It's, um it's officially offer you two percent in perpetuity a passive two percent, mind you as well as the repayment of your initial 300.
You literally don't have to do anything.
I mean, you'll be making money sitting on your ass.
It's a sweet deal, if you ask me.
Nick: It's very fair.
Nope.
- So, no? - I reject your offer.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
No.
That's, uh that's not an option.
- Why not? - 'Cause we voted.
Two to one.
Okay.
Okay.
- You voted.
Two to one.
- Mm-hm.
Mm-hm.
That's that's right.
Or or, may I just add, forget it.

So I think let's forget it.
Let's just order breakfast.
- It's fine.
- No.
No, that's not up - for discussion.

- Then what's it like then? - Nick: It has nothing to do with where you're from.
It doesn't have anything to do with where we're from either.
- Izzy: You scare people.
- The thing no.
Let's be, you know, constructive.
It's not You do, but the point is you're in a gang.
And that's a very dangerous element for us.
I'm here right now, because I was doin' business with your bitch-ass daddy, South Beach.
I'm sittin' right here, right now, because of that.
Ain't that some shit? You wanna now what the only difference between a rich thug and a poor thug is? You're here 'cause your daddy brought into this.
