Bad Banks (2018) s01e04 Episode Script
Old Debts
Thank you.
Hey.
Jana.
- What's your problem? - You boycott my protect.
You put chilli in my glass.
You know that Bender is gay, and you take us to a strip club? Jana.
Why don't you want him to buy? Jana You could have killed me! You don't get that? Let me go! Hey, what's going on? - Nothing.
- To my office.
Now.
Funny when people talk about a person who is present.
It's not I don't give a fuck.
According to Jana you beat down the price for Moldovan.
That's not true.
Two-five-two.
Pack your things.
Security is on its way.
Hold on My wife kicked me out.
And? I may have been beside myself.
You know I do well.
4.
8, come on! You haven't lost your dignity yet.
Please keep it.
Dignity? - I leave that downstairs.
- We need Adam.
- No, we don't.
- I check it at the door.
Give him a chance.
I need a salesman.
Just let it go, Jana.
Come in.
Adam.
Take care.
Cheers.
Chin up.
We will look for a replacement once we hit the critical phase.
Anything else? Back to work.
We are not done yet.
Thank you.
Thanks.
When will you get me the evidence? In three hours.
Sell everything.
Morning.
Who would be more convincing as the head of the investment department? Gabriel Fenger or Christelle Leblanc? I saw Khano and Ties Jacoby.
At night.
They seemed acquainted.
Let's assume Crédit International and Deutsche Global Invest were planning a merger.
You would compete with Fenger for the job.
You want to discredit Fenger and need my help.
A woman pursuing certain jobs needs other means.
I kept wondering what you wanted from me.
Show me what you got.
I can't.
The receipts aren't enough.
We'll see.
They aren't harmless.
They not only damage a reputation.
People will go to prison.
I owe you for helping me with the risk loans.
But to hurt Fenger you need to come up with something else.
This doesn't only hurt him.
But everybody.
What do you want? Have a seat.
I want to apologise.
Why? I try to give my life a new meaning.
What are you apologising for? That I didn't follow the rules.
That I hurt you.
What is this about? I have met someone.
She is important to me.
I won't accept your apology.
Only because I didn't go to the police.
I won't ease your conscience.
Stay unhappy.
Bugger off.
Jean-Claude.
Everything is taken care of.
You may hate him.
But he is right most of the time.
He makes people sell their principles.
You won't believe I act out of conviction? You sold your principles out of conviction? I admire you for that.
Yeah? The ability to fool yourself.
That this job is about principles.
If Silver Mountain becomes public Khano will not pay for it.
But you will.
And me.
Rule number one: it won't come out if no one benefits from it.
We will stir the pot.
In Global's accounting.
If they find out Jana snooped around they will fire her.
But, if she hands you the evidence She will.
I will offer her the right job.
Thank you.
I want to set sail and leave everything behind.
It is a phase.
Everyone has those.
In a crisis one questions everything.
If it makes sense.
Do you have an answer? There is no answer.
Accept that.
There are two options: you either crash or return to your old life and try to be happy.
There are only two options in life? When you started working many years ago, your father was so rich you didn't need to work.
Want me to disinherit you? His standard threat.
What about you? Are your parents rich? Should Luc be poor? To be content? What to use our money for? Don't answer.
It is just rhetorical.
Why not? She has an impact on you.
A positive one.
Spend it.
I know many people who only care about affording things.
There is nothing more depressive than money saved on accounts not doing what it should: make people happy.
Here is the reason for our meeting.
Our attorney did it: you may work again.
Stop the charade and be yourself.
You had fun with the maid.
Time to grow up.
She understands French? How would I know? Come with me.
Where are we going? What's this? In the 80's this was called the Iceberg Storey.
Cocaine was stored here.
Only a few know that Have a seat.
Sorry, I don't have a sofa.
Why are you showing me this? Because I live here.
This is me.
Okay.
I want to show you how you could end up.
Thanks for the warning.
I have a boyfriend.
Of course.
I expected you to be more charming.
I'm better at other things.
What happened to the smart banker I remind you of? Car accident.
Long time ago.
Shit.
Good night.
No.
Yes.
I was thinking here.
Why here? The cultural centre will be built here.
Hyhenated? Peter-SchultheiÃ-Strasse? No idea.
The street is shorter than its name.
Schultheià Strasse It makes sense.
Without me the street wouldn't exist.
Schultheià Strasse.
No hyphen.
Hello.
Good morning.
When are you coming home? Soon.
Very soon.
When is that? Very very soon.
- I miss you.
- I miss you, too.
I miss you.
It is not true.
He is lying.
- Shhh - He said "shhh".
He is lying.
Yes, we miss you very much.
Are you saying I'm lying? No outsider would suspect anything.
He asked if Silver Mountain was part of Global.
I have been careful.
My employees don't suspect anything.
Who has information on Silver Mountain? Good day.
Have a seat.
I want the names of everyone in this building who is suspicious to you.
What are you looking for? Don't waste my time.
I won't.
If you're covering someone I'm not.
Then you are in it, too.
Security is about to confiscate your mobile.
- And your computer.
- You can't do that You are hiding something.
It is obvious.
You may either confess now or your career is over.
Alright then Twice I had someone Twice someone asked me questions.
Jana Liekam.
She wanted to know more about sold projects.
And download something for Fenger.
From the data centre.
Which projects? I think Quaestus.
Fuck.
This is not an empty threat.
Closing will not be postponed.
I expect your bank to take over the unsold amount into its passbook.
To meet the deadline.
Closing must not be postponed.
On the roof.
Now.
If it is postponed the city will go wo court.
Thank you for your openness, Mr.
SchultheiÃ.
We will make it happen.
Good-bye.
I won't argue with you.
- She snooped around.
- Nonsense.
I want three lawyers giving her hell.
What would they do? Threaten her not to talk about something she doesn't even know? Jana is my most important employee.
Look at this.
Isn't this strange? The similarity? Leo was a loose cannon, too.
Drop it.
She was.
But she was more ruthless and cooler than us.
She was one step ahead.
That's why we loved and adored her.
But this chick Jana You loved her because she was mine.
Whatever.
I see the similarities.
We won't take any risk.
It is in both our interests.
That's why you waited with the transactions until my first day? On my first day the sales to Silver Mountain were ready.
You waited to suck me in.
That is correct I waited for you to be involved so I could fire her.
Because I envy your success.
Okay.
I will take care of Jana.
Do it.
Or others will.
Come with me.
Now! What did you try to download? Answer me.
Okay.
I didn't download anything.
I had a drink with colleagues.
They mentioned a project.
I wanted to know more.
It's normal when you are new.
Which project? - I don't remember.
- It was Quaestus.
What did you download? - I wanted - Stop lying.
Why Quaestus? Let me finish.
You are lying.
I didn't download anything.
I read up on something.
You won't ever find a job again.
You have only one chance.
You have to be honest, and I have to believe you.
Start talking.
Come on.
Someone asked me for it.
Who? I didn't tell them anything.
Who? Christelle Leblanc.
She asked me about Quaestus and to check it.
But I didn't do it.
I cut all ties with her.
Why did she ask for it? I don't know.
It seemed suspicious so I didn't do it.
Fucking asshole.
They are investigating.
You will not be left unsupervised anymore.
I didn't do anything.
What? Gabriel? She wanted it because CI and Global are merging.
I know you and Khano prefer Fenger.
Christelle.
You know how much I appreciate your work.
We all have strategies.
It took me a while to understand yours.
Most bank presidents are alpha males.
You are not.
You always come second.
Even though you are the boss.
But you accept it.
You make it a virtue.
We should finish supper.
You didn't notice the compliment.
I admire you.
You excel at forming your partners so they won't threaten you.
I like your passive aggressiveness.
The hidden insults that prevent a vocal fight.
I'm disappointed that you assume I prefer Fenger.
There's a reason.
You are scared of me.
I'm kidding.
You have decided.
Mrs.
Liekam? My name is Meissner.
From compliance.
I will watch you.
I will always be near you.
This is awkward for me, too.
Okay.
I have to excuse myself.
No problem.
Jana? Can you talk? Yes, what's up? They know I snooped around.
I'm under surveillance.
This guy follows my every move.
Shit.
Come to Luxembourg and we'll talk.
Okay.
I have three children.
I can't risk this job.
I'm sorry.
You couldn't warn me? We were friends.
You didn't care.
You didn't care.
I do care, but They sat there and I Jana, please.
Luc? Jana, I would like to talk to you.
Can I come up? I will come downstairs.
Okay.
It is weird to have this much time.
I was overwhelmed of first.
I believe you needed it.
You can't imagine how sorry I am for treating you that way.
Of course.
You know better now and try to be a better person.
It sounds odd, but it's true.
You are the biggest asshole I have ever met.
You had me do the dirty work while humiliating me.
I know.
Instead of you I was fired.
Pretending to be a better person is suspicious.
It's for your own good.
It only serves your narcissism.
You are right.
Anything else? I had nothing to do with your dismissal.
Yeah.
Your dad saved you, and you didn't notice.
Human resources demanded your dismissal - due to mistakes - that you made.
Your dad protected you by firing me.
It's alright.
I got it.
My father went to New York that day.
Big Daddy was on a plane.
He wasn't involved.
And me, neither.
Jana? "2011 European Banker of the Year Christelle Leblanc "is awarded the Awareness Prize" Isabelle.
Could you read it normally? "In the late 90's Christelle Leblanc "went after business criminals "while at the French external intelligence agency DGSE.
"She promotes sustainable financial protects "to regain the customer's trust in investment banking.
" Scratch "DGSE".
Intelligence always sounds bad.
No matter what.
- The entire passage? - Yes.
You should check your hearing.
Splendid.
May I release this as is? You had back pain.
Unsurprisingly.
You sleep on the floor.
My goodness, yes They will come back.
They were bad.
Do you always eat by yourself? That's sad.
I'm not by myself.
The entire ECB is here.
Mr.
Sydow? Hold on.
Excuse me.
Richard, from the Financial Supervisory Authority.
We haven't met.
- You are new? - Well It was a surprising change.
I'm the new boss in B6.
Let's have a meeting.
We improve the European supervision mechanism.
Together with ECB.
Certainly, make an appointment.
Very well.
There are a few Anyway.
We'll talk then.
Enjoy.
You, too.
See you soon.
I will close within a week.
Then I will quit this bullshit.
I will do this I have to finish this.
I will quit before they can fire me.
I will come back.
I want you and Flo.
I want us to live together.
I will get a random job in Luxembourg.
I will be able to with your support.
No more Global, no more CI.
I don't want this anymore.
It is fucked up.
I want you to know that I miss you.
I have to finish this.
But then I will come back.
Back to you.
You take some stuffing Then you do this Who is that? I don't know.
I'm Jana Liekam, a former colleague of Luc's.
Is he here? Yes, come in.
What brings you here? It is about Leipzig 2025.
I need you.
Wine? It is ready.
But we have no time.
It is about a huge amount, around 4 billion.
I don't want to risk anything.
I need a salesman who can sell anything.
I need a bullshitter like you.
I didn't just say that.
I won't do it anymore.
This is one of Europe's most profitable projects.
Good for you.
We wait for you.
Think about it.
But not too long.
My apologies for interrupting.
Cheers.
Everything alright? Yes.
Be honest.
Why do you like Fenger? He is charming.
A sense of humour.
Does it excuse his crimes? He and Sydow signed the deal on Silver Mountain.
They are criminals.
Let's talk about you.
Do you want back to CI? Then give me the evidence.
You haven't been honest with me.
Will that change? Patronising you was a mistake.
So yes.
Okay.
Who had me fired at CI? Do you know the Death House? It is a building near CI.
In the centre.
With many offices.
Some are CI offices.
People useless to the bank are moved there.
People who dedicated their life to the bank, are moved to small, shabby offices.
After the merger, when Fenger is the boss, I will be useless.
They will send me to that building as a consultant.
Where I will vegetate until early retirement.
You could quit.
You will always find a job.
You will realise how the system is male-dominated.
I had you fired.
I was going to contact and offer you a job at Global.
But you beat me and came to my office.
I thought: an ambitious banker who looked similar to Fenger's late fiancée could help me collect incriminatory information on him.
That's all.
That's the truth.
Where do you stop? What if I don't give you the evidence? What's your leverage? Your boyfriend works in private wealth? His clients like him, but he is average? Not a genius like you.
One call from me and he will never find a client or a job again.
That's where I'd start.
I hope we can remain friends.
At school there used to be competition.
"Who is best at cheating?" I didn't want to cheat.
It is just as stressful and risky to write a cheat sheet as learning for the test.
So I snitched.
The teacher watched us closely, and everybody was equal again.
Our entire conversation is already on my cloud.
Why I like Fenger? He doesn't need a cheat sheet.
I will ensure he remains my boss.
Is she gone? Could you write me a note? I didn't prepare that paper on plant louses.
I'm talking to you.
Hello? He is average.
Not a genius like you.
One call from me and he will never find a client or a job again.
You can't sleep? Maybe I could work again.
With a different attitude.
And that job would have nothing to do with my father.
They want me because I'm good.
You said you didn't want to go back to the bank.
That they broke you.
They will break you again.
We are in a hurry.
There is no catch.
Have your people check it and let our trader know.
That works.
Excuse me.
This is your desk.
Thank you.
Good morning.
Now is our chance.
Thank you.
I'm back.
The last two weeks were tough.
Nobody spent time at home.
But you have to keep going to make this happen.
Fill the order book.
Consult with clients.
Everything must run parallel to close in eight days.
Luc, can we do this? I can do this.
Let the big dog out.
Back to work.
- Enjoy.
- Thank you.
Hello.
The meat is wrong.
What's wrong with it? Take a look.
It is too small.
I would like it remade.
You are kidding, right? I would like one like everyone else.
Thank you.
You have to sort it out quickly for your children.
Don't let her talk you into something.
Mum, the baby is not even born yet.
Chin up.
Your brother finally accepted your money.
Talk to him, he is here.
Toni, Adam is on the phone.
I can't think of a better solution for her.
You know people who do this.
Are you mad? A lot is at stake for me.
I don't care.
Don't do it.
We manipulate people without them noticing.
If it doesn't work Listen: I won't pretend I didn't hear that.
I won't let you cross a line.
I was never here.
No!
Hey.
Jana.
- What's your problem? - You boycott my protect.
You put chilli in my glass.
You know that Bender is gay, and you take us to a strip club? Jana.
Why don't you want him to buy? Jana You could have killed me! You don't get that? Let me go! Hey, what's going on? - Nothing.

Pack your things.
Security is on its way.
Hold on My wife kicked me out.
And? I may have been beside myself.
You know I do well.
4.
8, come on! You haven't lost your dignity yet.
Please keep it.
Dignity? - I leave that downstairs.
- We need Adam.
- No, we don't.
- I check it at the door.
Give him a chance.
I need a salesman.
Just let it go, Jana.
Come in.
Adam.
Take care.
Cheers.
Chin up.
We will look for a replacement once we hit the critical phase.
Anything else? Back to work.
We are not done yet.
Thank you.
Thanks.
When will you get me the evidence? In three hours.
Sell everything.

They mentioned a project.
I wanted to know more.
It's normal when you are new.
Which project? - I don't remember.
- It was Quaestus.
What did you download? - I wanted - Stop lying.
Why Quaestus? Let me finish.
You are lying.
I didn't download anything.
I read up on something.
You won't ever find a job again.
You have only one chance.
You have to be honest, and I have to believe you.
Start talking.
Come on.
Someone asked me for it.
Who? I didn't tell them anything.
Who? Christelle Leblanc.
She asked me about Quaestus and to check it.

You sleep on the floor.
My goodness, yes They will come back.
They were bad.
Do you always eat by yourself? That's sad.
I'm not by myself.
The entire ECB is here.
Mr.
Sydow? Hold on.
Excuse me.
Richard, from the Financial Supervisory Authority.
We haven't met.
- You are new? - Well It was a surprising change.
I'm the new boss in B6.
Let's have a meeting.
We improve the European supervision mechanism.
Together with ECB.
Certainly, make an appointment.
Very well.
There are a few Anyway.
We'll talk then.
Enjoy.
You, too.
See you soon.
I will close within a week.
Then I will quit this bullshit.
I will do this I have to finish this.
I will quit before they can fire me.
I will come back.
I want you and Flo.
I want us to live together.
I will get a random job in Luxembourg.
I will be able to with your support.
No more Global, no more CI.
I don't want this anymore.
It is fucked up.
I want you to know that I miss you.
I have to finish this.
But then I will come back.
Back to you.
You take some stuffing Then you do this Who is that? I don't know.
I'm Jana Liekam, a former colleague of Luc's.
Is he here? Yes, come in.
What brings you here? It is about Leipzig 2025.
I need you.
Wine? It is ready.
But we have no time.
It is about a huge amount, around 4 billion.
I don't want to risk anything.
I need a salesman who can sell anything.
I need a bullshitter like you.
I didn't just say that.
I won't do it anymore.
This is one of Europe's most profitable projects.
Good for you.
We wait for you.
Think about it.
But not too long.
My apologies for interrupting.
Cheers.
Everything alright? Yes.
Be honest.
Why do you like Fenger? He is charming.
A sense of humour.
Does it excuse his crimes? He and Sydow signed the deal on Silver Mountain.
They are criminals.
Let's talk about you.
Do you want back to CI? Then give me the evidence.
You haven't been honest with me.
Will that change? Patronising you was a mistake.
So yes.
Okay.
Who had me fired at CI? Do you know the Death House? It is a building near CI.
In the centre.
With many offices.
Some are CI offices.
People useless to the bank are moved there.
People who dedicated their life to the bank, are moved to small, shabby offices.
After the merger, when Fenger is the boss, I will be useless.
They will send me to that building as a consultant.
Where I will vegetate until early retirement.
You could quit.
You will always find a job.
You will realise how the system is male-dominated.
I had you fired.
I was going to contact and offer you a job at Global.
But you beat me and came to my office.
I thought: an ambitious banker who looked similar to Fenger's late fiancée could help me collect incriminatory information on him.
That's all.
That's the truth.
Where do you stop? What if I don't give you the evidence? What's your leverage? Your boyfriend works in private wealth? His clients like him, but he is average? Not a genius like you.
One call from me and he will never find a client or a job again.
That's where I'd start.
I hope we can remain friends.
At school there used to be competition.
"Who is best at cheating?" I didn't want to cheat.
It is just as stressful and risky to write a cheat sheet as learning for the test.
So I snitched.
The teacher watched us closely, and everybody was equal again.
Our entire conversation is already on my cloud.
Why I like Fenger? He doesn't need a cheat sheet.
I will ensure he remains my boss.
Is she gone? Could you write me a note? I didn't prepare that paper on plant louses.
I'm talking to you.
Hello? He is average.
Not a genius like you.
One call from me and he will never find a client or a job again.
You can't sleep? Maybe I could work again.
With a different attitude.
And that job would have nothing to do with my father.
They want me because I'm good.
You said you didn't want to go back to the bank.
That they broke you.
They will break you again.
We are in a hurry.
There is no catch.
Have your people check it and let our trader know.
That works.
Excuse me.
This is your desk.
Thank you.
Good morning.
Now is our chance.
Thank you.
I'm back.
The last two weeks were tough.
Nobody spent time at home.
But you have to keep going to make this happen.
Fill the order book.
Consult with clients.
Everything must run parallel to close in eight days.
Luc, can we do this? I can do this.
Let the big dog out.
Back to work.
- Enjoy.
- Thank you.
Hello.
The meat is wrong.
What's wrong with it? Take a look.
It is too small.
I would like it remade.
You are kidding, right? I would like one like everyone else.
Thank you.
You have to sort it out quickly for your children.
Don't let her talk you into something.
Mum, the baby is not even born yet.
Chin up.
Your brother finally accepted your money.
Talk to him, he is here.
Toni, Adam is on the phone.
I can't think of a better solution for her.
You know people who do this.
Are you mad? A lot is at stake for me.
I don't care.
Don't do it.
We manipulate people without them noticing.
If it doesn't work Listen: I won't pretend I didn't hear that.
I won't let you cross a line.
I was never here.
No!
