-Yeah?
-Yeah.
-Yeah?
-Yeah. I mean, yeah.
Pretty good, man.
That means funny, right?
I think good.
And then you're gonna do the--
-Your whole, like, thing?
-Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I mean fuck it, right?
Just fucking go nut-nut.
Pure excess, full bore,
yeah?
Yeah.
-What? No?
-No-- Yeah, I th-- I think.
No, it's like I've gone
anti-fragile.
I can--
I can accommodate anything.
If I start second guessing,
it collapses.
Right. I think that is right.
This is the full fucking thing.
It's gonna be epic.
(THROUGH MICROPHONE)
This is the full fucking thing!

(SIGHS)
We're good, right?
All makes sense?
Mm. Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah,
this is great work, Rome.
Well, obviously,
the main thing is the
organizational cultural thing.
Mm. Mm-hmm.
I think, you know, everyone
agrees that GoJo makes sense.
No one needs persuading of that.
Ah, well, kind of regret
staying up all night
with my assholes then.
No. It's just about,
you know, us here who get it,
oiling the wheels
and making sure
there's no friction.
Well, of course.
I mean, I would say
we can handle the human stuff
without too much issue.
That needn't concern us.
That actually comes naturally
to some of us.
Which is why I focused
on integration benefits
and deal detail.
Great. Yeah.
I'm just saying, big picture.
Well, big picture is made
from small details, so
-TOM WAMBSGANS:
Guys, guys, honestly.
-Business lesson.
It's just nerves.
You've done really great work.
Let's go and help your dad
make the deal.
Yeah. All right.
-Nice rally call, Braveheart.
-I try, I try.
-And you're going tonight?
-Ken Fest?
-Yeah.
-I wouldn't think so.
Uh, if Matsson does,
maybe for follow up?
Gonna be pretty horrific.
Your brother in a porta-potty
rolling down a hill.
-(CHUCKLES)
-I might have to go
just to see how bad it is.
Aww, brudders.
Fuck you.
It's pure rubbernecking.
Okay. What's this?
SHIV ROY: Uh,
maybe Mattson's here early?
Or she's gonna give birth
to Dad's baby while we chant
a Satanic mass.
It's like he's having
a midlife crisis, aged 80.
-It's fine.
-No, it's not, Rome.
He's fucking an assistant
who's 50 years younger than him.
It's not a crisis.
That's normal.
It's the opposite of a crisis.
We should all be
so fucking lucky.
-Hiya.
-KARL MULLER: (LAUGHING)
That's so funny.
Oh. Okay. Champagne?
Uh, did you do it already?
Did you land GoJo already
without us, Dad?
We're not celebrating.
Long road ahead.
Lovely long open road.
Wind in our hair.
Wind in your hair?
We've had a vibration.
I've been speaking
to a contact
-with connections at DOJ.
-Laurie?
Well, we have
a number of friends.
And the word is,
on the down-low,
that they've seen
everything now.
They've reviewed,
and they're happy
with how we're engaging,
and they're coming to the view
that Kendall overpromised.
And perhaps some men
were terribly naughty
back in the day,
but nothing systemic,
nothing sanctioned.
It's going to be a number.
-Just a number?
-Nothing custodial.
-For anyone.
-Uh, no prison?
Nuh-uh. Nope, we don't think so.
-LOGAN ROY: Here's to us!
-ALL: To us!
And to justice!
ALL: To justice. Yeah.
(EXHALES) I'll remember.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Well, congratulations, Dad.
You've done it again.
It's great. (CHUCKLES)
Let's just hope
you don't do it again, right?
(CHUCKLES) No. Lessons learned.
(GULPS) And here's to Tom!
Uh, long road ahead.
No premature celebrations.
Mm-hmm, absolutely.
Amen to that!
Top me up, why don't ya?
Take me home, country roads!
Just gonna run
to the little boy's room.
Okay. Okay. Enough, enough.
No more mooning.
No more backslapping.

Mm-hmm.
(CLICKS TONGUE)
Thank you, Greg.
Yes!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
-Yes! Yes! Yes!
-Hey, hey, hey, hey.
(SCREAMS)
Yeah, fuck yeah!
-What? What? (PANTS)
-(TOM YELLS)
What is going on?
Wh-- Are you okay?
Apologies, Greg, I may have
gotten a little carried away.
But I just popped around
to say
that no one is going to jail.
Gerri spoke to the DOJ
and the Waystar Two
(BREATHES SHAKILY) are free.
Okay. Is it real?
(TRIUMPHANT MUSIC PLAYING) ♪
It was good news.
(GRUNTS)
(GROANS)
What are we looking at
in terms of, uh,
what are the responses
looking like?
Uh, I think about 80 percent
of your A-list is yeses
and 15 percent are maybes.
Okay. Well, maybes are nos,
let's not live in a dream world.
But, uh, who's in?
Off the top of my head,
it's great.
-Um, Dion, Barry, JP, David
-KENDALL ROY: Nice.
Anna, Tom, Tory,
Jeff, Elon, Lukas,
Jennifer and Emma, yeses.
Chloe is still a maybe.
And, uh (CLICKS TONGUE)
and the sibs?
COMFRY PELLITS: Um, yeah, uh
Okay. No. Whatever. Fine. Fine.
This is fucking cool, Comfry.
Hey, hey, listen,
you have a good time, too, yeah?
Like everyone,
servers, fucking
the imagineers, the DJ crew,
you know,
this is highly egalitarian,
like, do your job,
but fucking get your drink on
get your buzz on.
There's no boundaries
if you're cool.
Mission Control out!
Shit is about to pop off!

-Party!

-KENDALL: Whoo!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING) ♪
Hey, hey.
(QUIETLY) There might be
a problem with GoJo.
Okay. Where's Matsson?
He's sent Sherpas.
He's not coming.
Okay.
It's off. Tell these kids
to fuck off. Meeting cancelled.
(SCOFFS) Okay, well,
what's the downside, Dad?
You know, meet these guys,
could read petulant not to?
If he wants to send a nobody--
Well, his CFO and a whole team
of, uh, people
He's going to this
fucking party, isn't he? Huh?
Where is he?
Getting his nails done,
asshole whitened?
I think we might
have to court him
-a little, is the thing.
-Ah. Nah, nah, nah, nah.
It's bad fucking juju
to start like this.
Can we not at least talk
-to the nobodies a little
-No! No. We have other options.
Do we, though?
This could be our last chance
to avoid
the legacy media graveyard.
Frank's reached out
to Nan about Pierce.
What? Seriously?
We're going after Pierce again?
It's exciting.
Okay. That's it.
Everyone back to work.
The deal makes sense.
It's a great deal.
but he won't make the deal
because he's an arrogant prick.
Fine. Matsson's an asshole.
Fucking of course he is.
But do we burn
our only parachute
because of that?
LOGAN: It's just
smart business, Shiv.
I don't wanna pay over
the odds. And eventually,
the market will make him
make the deal.
-Unless someone makes
a better offer first.
-(CHUCKLES)
Yeah, Dad, this is it.
We have a scale issue.
Our streaming platform
is for shit.
And-- and we have nothing
that looks like growth.
This gets us consequentially
into streaming,
it gets us into sports betting,
it gets us into social media.
We have a little window.
Miss this, and we end up
being a pilot fish
nibbling leftovers
from Bezos's fucking teeth.
Kerry? What was it, that thing
you said about Matsson?
He thinks he's a genius.
He's made one good piece
of tech. Fuck him.
We appreciate your input, Kerry,
but "fuck him"
-is not good tactics.
-It is good tactics.
Dad, please, if you don't wanna
talk to Matsson,
fine, but let me.
Or let me. Or we can both do it.
He's gonna be at the party,
right?
-You're going?
-Mm-hmm.
Can't hurt.
Fine. But don't go in
too strong.
This is a black box
and I don't want to overpay.
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Got it. I'm on it.
Yeah, I-- I'll reorganize
my diary. I got it.
Since you're going
you might as well give him this
in person.
Oh, yeah. Okay.
What do you think?
Do you think he'll like it?
-(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING) ♪
-(CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING)
(CROWD CHATTERING)
No, I just-- I feel amazing,
you know?
My senses are heightened,
the air smells sweeter.
And, you know,
it's like I can see the poetry
and all little mundane things.
-Mm-hmm.
-It's-- I--
I'm gonna get so fucked up.
-Oh.
-(CHUCKLES) Okay. Is that okay?
Yeah, you don't need
my permission.
Like, how fucked up?
-Hi, there.
-Hi, there.
-(CHUCKLES)
-Tom Wambsgans!
-Not going to prison.
-Wow.
-Hi.
-We're asking everyone
to hand in their coats
and phones.
Kendall would like his present
to be everyone being present.
Yeah. Fuck off.
I'm not doing that.
(CHUCKLES) Yeah, you're gonna
have to tase us.
-And your coat? (CHUCKLES)
-Uh, nuh-uh,
I will remain coated,
thank you, as is my right.
(CLICKS TONGUE)
So come on. What?
What happened?
Ranch stuff.
What, a horse didn't want
you to fuck it? What?
-He had a fall.
-(CHUCKLES)
Don't say, "had a fall,"
that sounds like I'm 89. No!
Maxim and I actually got
some polling results,
we shared a Cognac,
and then I slipped
doing a little Irish jig.
ROMAN ROY: Oh.
Okay, ranch stuff.
-CONNOR ROY: Yeah.
-ROMAN: Got it. Real cowboy.
SHIV: Oh, my God.
This feels disgustingly Kendall.
(RYTHMIC PLAYING
OVER SPEAKERS)
-So, where's Tabs? She busy?
-Yeah.
-Again? Did you kill her?
-Yeah.
It's going great,
I'll have you know.
She's just a bit boring is all.
That's all I'm saying.
Okay. The relationship
was fine sexually
and you're loving
the intimacy and all?
Yes. I love the intimacy.
I love people
really getting to know me.
Uh-huh. Yeah.
Oh, like you're the fucking
catch of the day.
You're more fucked up
than I am.
NURSE: Congratulations!
You've just been born
into the world of Kendall Roy!
Okay. Immersive theater.
I mean, I could have consulted,
but whatever.
Oh, Jesus.
Uh, so if we've just been born,
then, uh
Oh, okay.
So I'm inserting myself
into my mom's vagina now?
-Wow.
-Is that what's happening?
Cold and inhospitable,
seems to check out.
I am repeatedly entering
my own mother.
Is that-- That's not right.
This is my mom's cooch,
so you know.
And, uh, you're implying
that it's massive,
so you might wanna
tighten my mother's vagina.
Hey, Tom Wambsgans, free man,
how's it going?
Gregory Hirsch, uh,
not going to prison.
-(LAUGHS)
-Pleased to meet you!
Look at you all gussied up,
you slick little fuck.
-Well, thank you. Nice.
-Yes.
-Uh, feeling good?
-Oh, yeah.
Say, have you seen,
uh, Comfry?
Ken's PR? With the-- the hair
always kind of in a
-messy
-TOM: Gregory John Hirsch.
You got a crush?
-Oh, my God.
-What?
She seems like a nice person.
Well, I mean, she's way out
of your league, man. I mean,
it's like a haunted scarecrow
asking out Jackie Onassis.
It's a suicide mission.
Oh, yeah.
Sure, sure, sure, Tom.
No, no, no. No, no.
This is not a razz.
Greg. She's a goddess.
And you're a-- you're a
nine-foot Cro-Magnon man.
I mean, you shouldn't even be
really thinking about her.
You're gonna put her
in a tough spot.
Look, I'm not unaware
of the discrepancy in terms of
-our physical circumstances.
-It's a chasm.
Well, I have an initial approach
which is
-"You're like a fascinating book
I'd like to crack open."
-(LAUGHS)
Okay. Well, how'd--
how'd you get Shiv?
-She's out of your league.
-Oh!
-Testy, Greg!
-Well?
Well, Greg, I'll tell you. I got
a dick the size of a red sequoia
and I fuck like a bullet train.
Okay? Satisfied?
-Prove it.

happened?
Well, little overexcited about
a political breakthrough, so
-Okay.
-CONNOR: Yeah.
But what-- what's with the coat?
You're not staying or
It's a coat. I like it.
So, what do you think?
It's cool. Can I ask you,
did you ask
for Mommy's permission
for the use of her, uh, squatch?
What? From a copyright
perspective?
Well, it's just, you know,
call me old-fashioned,
but I think you should ask
before you construct
a giant replica
of someone's vagina. No?
Roman, relax. Yes,
you can take it home with you.
Okay. So. Go on, tell us.
Who's here?
-Who isn't?
-Your dad.
-Your mom.
-Your wife and kids.
ROMAN: Any real friends.
I mean business folks, yeah.
Stewy?
I mean, honestly, we could do
with building some bridges.
So, yeah, Lawrence Yee?
Lukas Matsson?
Yeah, yeah. They're all here.
Somewhere.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, I got something
to show you. This way. This way.
-ROMAN: Great.
-CONNOR: Hey, Will.
-WILLA FERREYRA: Yeah.
-Hey, Nay.
KENDALL: Nay, I-- I-- I--
I'm gonna show
these guys around.
ROMAN: Hey, uh, I actually
got something from, uh, Dad,
and myself, I suppose.
-What is it?
-ROMAN: Oh,
it's, uh, it's your baby teeth
and an iTunes gift card.
It's nice. No, it's a--
it's a nice thing.
We-- we hope you'll like it.
-Okay. Let me show
you some shit.
-CONNOR: Okay.
So, I consulted with
Gladwell and Harari,
and Lovelock and Popcorn,
and this in here,
it's, uh, it's pretty technical,
but this is the best
we could come up with
on the likely directions
of society,
so a little dry, but
accurate, I would say.
-Accurate.
-CONNOR: President.
ROMAN: Hmm. Not a bad way to go.
Also, we got people in here
picturing me jerking off,
so who's the real winner?
Oh, man.
What if McCartney tweets this?
This is not-- I mean,
jokes are all very well and
Come on, man,
I'm breaking through.
Ken, I'm not sure that you're
aware, but Conn is polling
-very close to one percent so
-ROMAN: One percent?
-KENDALL: Really?
-Congrats.
That's four million people,
and it's enough
to sway the race.
And I am interested to see
who comes crawling first,
Merkel, begging for me
to save democracy
or Soros serenading me
from the trees.
ROMAN: You did, however,
actually shit your bag.
Yeah, you know why? Because
I took you two fucking assholes
on a camping trip
'cause Dad couldn't be bothered.
-That's why!
-KENDALL: Okay, okay, okay.
-And I ate some
bad fucking fish.
-Hey, hey, hey.
-Okay. Okay. Okay. Hey.
-This is bullshit!
Hey, excuse me, hey, can we--
can we take down
the crap sack
Conner piece, please?
Conn? Conn? Conn?
It's coming down.
It's a joke, okay?
-Come on, man. Loosen up.
-CONNOR: I'm good.
-Okay. Okay. Okay.
-Lose the coat, yeah?
(LAUGHS) Okay.
All right, I gotta circulate.
We can check in later.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That'd be great

Yeah, yeah, me too.
Right, because I might have

Yeah. Just Kendall's really

kind of you.
How-- how can
I possibly repay you?

A very evenhanded maiden.

Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so-- so-- Dad sent me
something for my birthday.

It's a little Trojan mindfuck.
He's trying to slip a maggot
in the candy apple.
He's offering to buy me out
of my share in the company.
Okay. Wow. Like, what is that?
In terms of a number?
Two bill. But it's a mind game.
He's just-- He's worried
I'm not gonna let him keep on
living rent free up here.
-And?
-And fuck him.
Right? Maybe I refuse to engage.
Mind game that, motherfucker.
Yeah. That's great. But
maybe you do take it.
Maybe, I don't know.
Yeah, may-- maybe-- maybe
maybe I buy you
a diamond the size
of the Ritz-Carlton
and a few
illustrious newspapers,
the Globe and Mail,
the LA Times,
I print a front page of my dad
eating dog dick
-every day for a year.

And we're living in Marrakesh

and smoking hash and learning
how to turn a lathe?

But do we know
where Lukas Matsson
is right now?
Shiv and Roman have been
asking staff
for Matsson's location
and inquiring discreetly
about a private meeting space.
Is that okay?
Okay.
Okay. Uh, can--
can the party team
get eyes on Matsson and ask him
to meet me in the treehouse?
COMFRY: Sure.
(QUIETLY) Um, can you find
Lukas Matsson and tell
Hey, I have a location.
-Oh, great. Let's go!
-Yeah.
-But don't fuck this, yeah?
-Oh, come on.
-Easy. No. Upstairs.
-Please, where are we going?
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
-What the fuck?
-ROMAN: Yeah. I know.
I think a 40-year-old man
who rebuilds
his childhood treehouse
should immediately
go on
the sex offender registry.
-Hey.
-(SHIV CHUCKLES)
ROMAN: Are you letting me in
or what's the deal?
Do you have a rainbow band?
Yes, I'm-- I'm--
I'm a walking rainbow band.
-There he is.
-Oh, hey.
-ROMAN: Hey.
-Okay.
ROMAN: This guy's
not letting us in.
-You done downstairs?
-Yeah. We are done.
Hey, Ken, may we please
step inside
your mental disorder?
-Good one. (CHUCKLES)
-ROMAN: Thanks.
-Okay.
-KENDALL: Um, sorry.
-ROMAN: What?
-That's not possible.
Okay. Why?
(CLICKS TONGUE) Yeah, well,
because the thing is,
the treehouse is cool
and you're not cool.
Oh, wow, yes. The coolest
grown man's treehouse
-I've seen in quite a while.
-(ROMAN LAUGHS)
Okay. Okay. No, seriously,
guys, just come over--
come over here for a second.
Let's go over here.
Just one second.
Sorry, but, like,
so joking aside
Great jokes.
There is actually
a real issue here
-Okay.
-and I need to be discreet
because there's a lot
of celebrities around
and if you guys were
in the treehouse, it kinda
kinda wouldn't feel like
the treehouse, you know?
(SHIV SCOFFS)
-You're a Nazi lover.
-Oh.
-And you're a Nazi lover.
-Mm-hmm.
And I'm a defender
of liberal democracy.
-(CHUCKLES) Okay.
-And this here is made
from George Washington's
cherry tree, so
-The fuck?
-Ya-da-da, da-da-da-da.
Are you actually
not gonna let us in?
Or are you just
gonna bullshit us a little bit
-before you let us in?
-To see Matsson?
That's why you're here.
You're trying to push
a deal here.
-SHIV: So?
-ROMAN: Who fucking
gives a shit?
Like what's the difference?
I just wanna talk to him.
High-quality personal conduct.
-Oh.
-Really top rank.
What's the difference? I wanna
talk to him. So what?
Yeah. And you know what happens
if we do talk to him?
Either we strike out
and nothing.
Or we succeed, Waystar benefits,
and your net worth goes up by
-several hundred million dollars
-You're welcome.
-Right.
-SHIV: Yeah.
But I have to weigh that against
the consideration that
no losers are allowed.
-Oh my fucking God.
-Okay, I'm going in.
This is fucking stupid.
-Hey, bro, bro.
-This is dumb.
-Hey, look at him!
Oh my God.
-Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Did you see that?
I just got moved. Um, all right.
-Oh, my God, bro!
-No, no, no. No, no, no.
-What? What is this?
-Bro. Bro, bro. Calm down.
Are you actually gonna what,
stop me?
-KENDALL: You're getting
worked up about a treehouse?
-Yeah.
You know how ridiculous that is?

Yeah, wristband this guy.
Uh, what's his name?
-What is his name? Who is he?
-No idea.
-Good. So good. So good.
-See these two?
Don't let these two in, okay?
-Yeah.
-This is my treehouse.

near here.

Oh, hey, thanks
for the offer, Rome.

out of the holding company.
You and Dad?
Well, he can only sell

did you get the kids' present?
They've-- they've made
something for you.
What? No.
They made me something?
No, I didn't-- that didn't get
to me. What-- when?
When you arrived, who--
who did you give it to?
RAVA: Yeah, we-- I don't know.
We left it with
one of the people.
They said they would
give it to you, but
-Fine. Okay.
No, I'll-- I'll find it.
-Yeah.
I'm gonna find it
because it'll be logged.
What did it--
what did it look like?
Um, like-- like a present.
It had-- it-- it--
It had rabbit wrapping paper.
All right. Got it.
-Fine, uh

-Thank-- thanks for coming.
-Yeah.
You know, I might be getting out

we'll talk more.

Sorry. Obviously-- obviously

I'll-- I'll-- I'll handle it.
I'm sorry.
I'm-- I'm sorry,
I didn't mean
Uh-- on your birthday.
You didn't wanna burst my--

You were gonna ask Comfry out?
Comfry, my employee Comfry?
Um, yeah.
But-- but is that right?
I mean, are you--
Do you have to spin against me?

are kind of slowing down
in-- in that regard, right?
No. And she's
out of your league, bro.
Well, yeah, I-- I-- I--
I don't see it that way.
What if I wanna ask her out?

It's best you don't, okay?
Too complicated.
She works for me.

Did you think Tom
was going to jail?
-Did you? Did you?
-No, I'm happy he's
not going to jail.
Oh, I'm sure you are.
You look really happy.
Did you think he was, though?
Maybe?
He-- There was a chance
he was going to jail?
Maybe Dad was gonna go to jail?
Fuck, maybe
I was gonna go to jail.
And because Kendall's
(CLICKS TONGUE)
that it was all about you.
You thought it was ladies' night
and they were playing your song,
but guess what?
You were wrong! All the men
got together in man club
and we decided, sweetheart,
everything's fine, so just
-We got it.
-You know, he is using you
as a messenger boy,
but as usual
-Mm-hmm.
-you're too fucking dumb
to see it.
It's difficult. I get it.
It's very difficult for you
to have to do the dance for Dad
because you just suck
at dancing.
You're a piece of shit,
you know that?
ROMAN: It turns out he loves it
when I do the Daddy dance,
but I guess that's
because he loves me.
He loves fucking me,
and he just doesn't wanna
fuck you anymore.
What are you even talking about?
You're so gross.
(LAUGHS) Oh, Daddy doesn't
love his little carrot top
even when she does her
little Daddy dance.
-Dad-Daddy, Dad-Daddy dance.
-I fucking hate you, man.
Oh, shit. Look who it is.
It's birthday boy. Hey!
-Happy birthday, man.
-Enough, yeah?
Oh, okay. Yeah. Sorry.
Good night.
Neither of you should
be in here.
Oh my God, you're right.
Someone call the cops!
Intruders have breached
the masturbatorium!
KENDALL:
You're both full of shit.
And you came here
to fuck me behind my back.
And you're ghouls
and you're disgusting.
-Sorry. Whoops.
-Can we get them out?
-ROMAN: Oh, get them out?
-KENDALL: Can we
get them out, please?
Um, it's a little late
for that, buddy.
I already spoke to Mattson.
Who hates you, by the way,
and laughs at you constantly.
Just stop.
ROMAN: Oh, what?
Go easy on birthday boy?
Did you come here to see me
at all?
You didn't, did you, Shiv?
Well, look, we haven't been
getting along that great lately,
so what do you think? Surprised?
-GoJo was my idea.
-(LAUGHS)
-You stole my idea.
-"You stole my idea."
What are you, fucking six?
Dude, you lost. No big deal.
No need to cry about it.
You lost.
You like the spying, Shiv?
On my daughter?
-Oh.
-On your niece? You like that?
-Okay. Lay off the drugs, Ken.
-ROMAN:
It's not a fucking big deal.
-Who gives a shit?
-We are spying?
ROMAN: Yes, of-- Oh, come on.
Of course we are.
It's a fucking party game.
He's in Dad's shit,
so we're up in his,
everybody's in the shit.
-Don't act like
you're fucking clean.
-No, okay. That is disgusting.
It's disgusting?
What, you're siding
with him now? Traitor?
I'm just saying
there's a line, bro.
-Fucking Sophie and Iverson?
They're kids.
-ROMAN: Oh, there's a line now?
There's a fucking line now?
No line for him,
no line for you,
but there's a line for me?
You're a bunch of stuck-up cunts
who can't fucking bear
to see me win. That's it.
That's all this is.
You're not a real person.
You know that?
You're not a real person.
You're not real.
Come on. Why don't you
hit me maybe?
-Come on.
-Come on, shitty Jesus.
You know you want to.
Just fucking hit me. Do it.
"I'm not a real person."
Fuck you.
All right.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Have a good birthday,
okay, fuckface?
-CONNOR: Hey, what is this?
-Oh, shit! Oh, fuck!
(LAUGHING) Are you okay?
Happy birthday.
Everybody just take it easy,
okay?
(ROMAN LAUGHING)
Take your coat off.
-Take your fucking coat off.
-That's enough. That's enough.
KENDALL:
Take your fucking coat off!
-(ROMAN GIGGLES)
-Like a fucking eight-year-old.
You're an asshole.
It's funny. It's funny.
You're gonna laugh at it later.
-Let's-- let's
-You're gonna wake up
in the middle of the night
-Let's go.
-and be like,
"That was funny."
To the birthday boy.
