I got that. Yes.

I see that you're pregnant.

Thank you for noticing. What tipped

you off, my giant belly?

Or can you see my hemorrhoids

and my second thoughts from

where you're standing?

Don't you want your

child to grow up

in a world where there

are penguins?

To be perfectly frank,

f*** the penguins.

I don't think that what Marcy is

saying is to f*** the penguins.

No, it is what I'm saying.

F*** the penguins.

And I love penguins. Uh-huh.

But I have to agree with

Marcy. F*** them.

Java chip sounds like it's

going to be a winner.

How's the new place, man?

Oh, terrific. Super small

and really expensive.

Oh, my God, that does sound good.

Super small and really

expensive? Yeah.

Sometimes you can only get one of

those, but you got both of those.

Yeah, it's a deal. That's great.

How did that happen?

I know.

Reason number 25 I'm not married.

Like I need someone telling me

to buy sh*t I can't afford.

It's all about the Benjamins,

my friend. The Benjamins.

Yeah.

I'll be one of those

guys who's just

old and ugly, rich, has a hot wife.

Like...

Gollum. Not Gollum.

Georgie!

Come see me for a little chat

when you get upstairs.

All right! You got the

point and the wink.

Boss man likes you.

It just doesn't fit the HBO brand.

We do violence and heartache,

but it's sexy.

Mmm-hmm. Do you understand?

Of course. What was I thinking?

You know what we could do?

We could throw some vampires in there

to have sex with the penguins.

And then you could have brooding,

sexy little vampire penguins.

Would that work for your brand?

What if the polar bears were

hookers, and on meth?

And then they show their tits for

no reason. How would that work?

I think you're joking,

but if you could do that, that would

be very interesting for us.

Yeah, very interesting.

And if I do get the promotion,

then what?

I have to work more hours

at the job I hate.

Wow, you're really bumming me out,

man. I hate this job, too.

Wait, what's going on?

Feds got in at 5:00 this morning.

Seized everything.

Georgie! Man with the plan.

I am going to take a little rain

check on our chit-chat.

Company shutdown effective

immediately.

Did I just get wink-point

shitcanned?

What are you doing here?

How did HBO go?

Well, they're passing on this one,

but they are definitely interested

in not seeing my other projects,

so it turns out I can't fly.

Why are you not at work, George?

Oh! I got fired.

You want to sell?

Well, my work situation

has changed a little.

Look, I'm going to be completely

honest with you guys.

The market has dropped.

We just bought it.

You said it was a good investment.

I think you said that.
