Do you remember Joe Hunt,

I was telling you about.

Oh, right, yes, Dean told

me you're a trader of sorts?

Yeah, that's right, Mr. Levin.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

I notice you have the afternoon edition.

- You mind if I take a look?

- No, go right ahead.

- Thank you.

- Joe is a genius.

This guy had like a six...

What?

Rough day in the market?

No, not at all.

You know, Mr. Levin, it's

really an honor meeting you.

I'd love for you and I to sit down...

and speak through my investment strategy.

I think you might find it very interesting.

Are you familiar with the

commodities market, Mr. Levin?

Am I familiar with the

commodities market, Dean?

Hm... why don't you tell me.

Holy sh*t.

That can't be real.

What is it?

It's a Bulla... Sumerian's used it.

They put those tokens

inside their clay pot...

and marked the day a

commodity was delivered.

It's... it's 5,000 years old.

No, it's actually 6000 years old.

You're looking at the world's

first futures contract.

Must be worth a fortune.

Do you want to hold it?

Are you kidding me?

No.

Just be careful. 'Cause

it's worth a lot of money.

Sh*t! Oh my God.

Oh sh*t!

- Dean, go find a broom.

- Okay.

Please tell me that was

insured. I'm so sorry.

Insured? That was priceless.

There are only 17 Bullas

on the entire planet.

And every single one of them...

is locked in a museum.

It's a fake.

But you thought it was an original.

Yeah.

And why? Because the

perception of reality...

is more real than reality itself.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

DEAN (V.O.):
The Biltmore's

parents had taken off...

to Europe for the summer.

So the boys had turned their home...

into their own private clubhouse.

The place was always crawling

with Beverly Hills royalty.

Mean Dean gonna get this

show on the road, or what?

Probably boning in the bathroom.

Go get him and hurry it up!

Dean, we took a hit in the market today.

What? How bad?

We wiped out.

- All of it?

- Half.

The rest is still in the account.

Yo, Dean, your guests are waiting!

Uh, just give us a second, Kyle.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm giving Kyle his money back.

What, you're gonna tell him now?

After the presentation,

in private, yes, I have to.

What presentation, Joe? There

is no way these guys will buy...

our pitch if Kyle's

bitching about a wipe out.

I know, but I don't have a choice.

All you have is your rep.

Dean, I'm just gonna

be honest with the guy.

He knew there were risks

when he got involved.

He doesn't know.

What do you mean, he doesn't know?

There was no apologies?

You gave me his money without him knowing?

Sorry, I wanted to put wind in your sails.

I should have told you the truth.
