I.T. Page #6

Let's have a talk here.

KAITLYN:
You are unbelievable!

Every time I make a f***ing

friend, you ruin it!

- MIKE:
Don't swear at me!

- KAITLYN:
I hate living here!

(CLOCK TICKING RAPIDLY)

(CHATTER ECHOING)

You said ten o'clock, right?

PATRICK:
It's the SEC, Mike.

Relax, we're in good shape.

MIKE:
Yeah, yeah.

Omni?

I'm Linda Martinez,

SEC Fraud Division.

- What?

- We have an issue.

As you are

no doubt aware, Mr. Regan,

under Section 4 of the SEC

Compliance Regulations,

any attempt to lobby,

coerce, or collaborate

with any member

of the compliance committee

will trigger an investigation

and a subsequent delay

to any initial public offering.

Well, clearly it wouldn't be in

my client's best interest to...

LINDA:
We have received

evidence of such collaboration.

We've also received evidence of

electronic document tampering.

Look, um...

I'm prepared to resubmit

the documents

in question here and now.

LINDA:
We have therefore

no other choice

than to delay or suspend

your application

for an initial public offering.

Delay?

By what, a couple of weeks?

- Or months.

- PATRICK:
Months!

Are you f***ing kidding me?

We'll be in touch. Good day.

Someone's f***ing with us.

PATRICK:
Oh, my God, my God!

- (ORCHESTRAL MUSIC PLAYING)

- (APPLAUDING)

I don't know.

That play was just

beyond me, I'm sorry, I...

You hated every minute of it.

Sorry, I want my two hours back.

(LAUGHING)

- You were asleep.

- Yeah.

All right, what's wrong?

(MIKE SIGHING)

- Mike.

- MIKE:
I...

Nothing.

- It's fine.

- ROSE:
What?

- We had to fire that guy.

- What guy?

Ed Porter, the I.T. guy.

The one that came around

to the house?

Mm-hm.

Good, he was a creep.

Well, don't worry.

He's long gone.

No, what else?

There's something else.

I'm under pressure with the SEC.

We all thought

it was going fine,

and it's really just

going down the shitter.

- Is it gonna be okay?

- I...

I don't know.

I don't know.

(BEEPING)

(SONAR-LIKE BEEPING)

- ROSE:
Mike.

- MIKE:
Wha...

ROSE:
Mike.

Wake up. I think there's

someone in the house.

- (BEEPING)

- AUTOMATED VOICE: Door opening.

MIKE:
Stay there.

(DISTANT CLANGING)

(DISTANT CLANGING)

(SOFT ELECTRIC BUZZING)

(BEEPING)

(HEAVY METAL MUSIC BLARING)

ROSE:
Mike?

- (BEEPING)

- (HEAVY MUSIC PLAYING)

ROSE:
Mike!

Come on,

you piece of f***ing sh*t!

F***!

- F***!

- (BEEPING)

Turn off!

AUTOMATED VOICE:
System set.

ROSE:
What was that?

MIKE:
It's fine,

everything's fine.

ROSE:
No, everything's not fine!

What the f*** was that?

MIKE:

Everything's fine, okay?

Back to bed, everyone,

don't worry.

Kaitlyn, I'm sorry about

that craziness last night.

- You must be tired.
