00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,965
Look, I loved Peter Gregory
maybe even more than he loved me,

154
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,280
but there's something
you need to know here,

155
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,364
something that Monica
isn't exactly volunteering up,

156
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,091
and that's that all of these one-man firms
have a key-man clause.

157
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,650
- Do you know what that means?
- No.

158
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,200
It means that now that Peter Gregory is gone,

159
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,691
all the Raviga investors

160
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,604
have the contractual right
to cash out and walk away,

161
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,002
which means that by the end of the day,
there may not be a Raviga.

162
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,651
- Seriously?
- Yes, so we have to prepare for that.

163
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,769
Now, I know that it makes me
sound like a terrible person,

164
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,001
but we have a company to run.

165
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,327
And do you know who
the first person to agree with me would be?

166
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,731
Peter Gregory.

<font color="#DF01D7">(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)</font>

168
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,360
And that is the very first spot
in our new campaign

169
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,408
heralding the upcoming release of Nucleus

170
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,164
this January at CES.

171
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,161
- Any questions?
- I have a question.

172
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,241
That was horrible.

173
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,522
I just got humiliated
by a fucking teenager at TechCrunch Disrupt,

174
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,365
and you give me this tampon ad?

175
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,442
A girl with diabetes on a swing?

176
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,443
- I think she has cancer.
- <font color="#404040">MAN:</font> Yeah.

177
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,204
At least that's how I read it.

178
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,805
I don't care what kind of disease she had!

179
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,044
All I care about is that
Nucleus is better than Pied Piper.

180
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,770
Hendricks just left us all in the dust.

181
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,124
If we get this wrong,

182
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,601
we could blow
the business opportunity of a lifetime!

183
00:08:46,680 --> 00:08:49,206
Data creation is exploding.

184
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:54,161
With all the selfies and useless files
people refuse to delete on the cloud,

185
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:59,885
92% of the world's data
was created in the last two years alone.

186
00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:01,041
At the current rate,

187
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:05,170
the world's data storage capacity
will be overtaken by next spring.

188
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,641
It will be nothing short of a catastrophe.

189
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,770
Data shortages, data rationing,
data black markets.

190
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,401
Someone's compression
will save the world from data-geddon,

191
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,121
and it sure as hell better be Nucleus
and not goddamn Pied Piper!

192
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,290
I don't know about you people,

193
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:23,646
but I don't wanna live in a world

194
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,805
where someone else makes the world
a better place better than we do.

195
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,405
"Data-geddon." Is he married to that, or...

196
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,687
There's just been a lot of "geddons" lately.

197
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,411
That's true.
"Snow-mageddon," "car-mageddon."

198
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,528
There's that movie Armageddon.

199
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,688
Laurie, you wanted to see me?

200
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,808
Monica, come in, come in.
I'm sure you've heard by now

201
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,723
that I've been named
our new managing partner.

202
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,529
<font color="#404040">MONICA:</font> Yes. Congratulations.

203
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,763
Did the limited partners tell you
how they made their decision?

204
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,168
Oh. They looked at the portfolio performances

205
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,481
of each of the senior partners
over the last several funds,

206
00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:08,086
and my numbers were,
objectively, the most favorable.

207
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,764
Therefore, I was selected.

208
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:14,482
Yeah, it's just managing partner
is all about meeting with people

209
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:16,369
and interacting with people.

210
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,329
You can sit down if you want to.
Do you want to?

211
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,050
- Oh...
- Or should we stand?

212
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,964
Uh... I... Whatever...

213
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:23,041
- I'm standing...
- Okay.

214
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,281
But you don't have to.

215
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,770
- Okay.
- Would it make you feel awkward to sit?

216
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,251
I'm okay to stand.

217
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,086
- Monica...
- Of course.

218
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,090
Peter Gregory is dead.

219
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,804
Yes, I know.

220
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,169
On a personal note, his death is very sad.

221
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,084
But on a professional level, it's untenable.

222
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,321
I've been reviewing his files.

223
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,880
He was pursuing a number
of extremely dubious positions.

224
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,642
Are you aware that we own
a $30 million ostrich farm in Morocco,

225
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,644
or that we are the majority stakeholders

226
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,400
in three companies that
specialize in invisibility?

227
00:10:59,560 --> 00:11:04,282
This box is filled with napkins covered
with notes detailing Peter's conviction

228
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,291
that genetically-modified cranberry fungus
would become the next cotton.

229
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,448
- That... That one I remember.
- Yes.

230
00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:12,971
- Monica.
- Mmm-hmm.

231
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,570
Peter Gregory is dead.

232
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,530
- Yes.
- We need to seem competitive,

233
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,011
now more than ever,

234
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,289
to our investors as well
as to the industry at large.

235
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:24,361
Well, I mean,

236
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,411
Pied Piper is probably the hottest
early investment in town right now,

237
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,720
and we have them.

238
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,450
Do we?

239
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,568
But why then are they speaking to other firms
about investing in their Series A?

240
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,450
No, no.
I just told them to sit tight for a day or two

241
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:39,760
until we sorted things out.

242
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:44,050
It seems that that advanced
a sense of uncertainty,

243
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,327
and now we're at risk of losing their round.

244
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,846
This could jeopardize the firm

245
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,890
and, by extension, your career here, Monica,

246

as an associate partner.

247
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,205
Well, I guess I was just kind of in shock.

Richard, look, we all know
about your amazing compression rate,

but let's not be naive here.

273

throw money at an algorithm

"Just got a term sheet from Stern Taylor.

306

"They offered $5 million
at $25 million post-money valuation.

"More than I thought."

308
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:56,890
Shit. They were negging us.

309
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,968
- Negging?
"Neggifig is going negative.

310
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,442

used by lonely chauvinists.

they try and bring our price down.

313
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,085
But you shitting all over them
counteracted their shitting all over us.

Richard, this could be good.

- Where do we have next?
- Ross Loma Capital.

316

Should I keep doing it?
Should I keep negging?

317

No, no, I'll handle this.

If they want to negotiate
using hostility and rudeness,

319
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,689
well, they picked the wrong guy.

320
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,330
Well, you see, our main concern

321
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,688
is how you're going to achieve
escape velocity on your growth rate.

00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,242
It's just that painting behind you.

325

It's awful.

326
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,761
It looks like harlequin Kama-sutra
done poorly.

327
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,801
So, I agree,

I think we all just move on.

No, I did.

332
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,971
Okay. Well,

333
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,326
thank you for meeting with us.

334
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,289
We have a bunch of these things to go to,

335
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,091
hopefully with more tasteful artwork.

336
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,642
And your logo looks like a sideways vagina.

337
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,291
I find that to be racist, don't you?

338
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:16,961
Okay, here's my concern...

339
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,801
Here's my concern.
Who the hell picked out that shirt for you?

340
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,041
What?

341
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,321
Oh, I see. With the pants.

342
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,085
So I guess it's a whole thing.

343
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,730
My wife picked these out.

344
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,171
Then you married poorly.

345
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,330
Do you care about Pied Piper?

346
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,290
Do I care about Pied Piper? Well, of course.

347
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,681
Cause if you do, I'm not seeing it.

348
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,647
In fact, what I think I'm seeing
is the human equivalent of a flaccid penis.

349
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,411
"Flak-sid." It's actually pronounced "flak-sid."

350
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:49,891
Not a lot of people know that.

351
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,769
Well, we are definitely interested,

352
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,366
but I think we need to...

353
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,568
I'm sorry. ls something wrong?

354
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,531
No, this is all wrong.

355
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,887
I am sensing a general lack of vision.

356
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,690
Your muffins smell like shit.

357
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,444
So do your ideas.

358
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,050
One of you is the least attractive person
I've ever seen,

359
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:12,009
and I'm not gonna say who.

360
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,881
Should we leave or should you?

361
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,328
We just got offered eight at 40.

362

We're five for five, gentlemen.

And Galveston Capital Fund
and Yountville Ventures called.

364
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,882
They want to move their meetings up
before everyone else.

365

Hey, let me try.
I want to be rude at this next one.

366
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,040
Go for it.

367
00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:31,406
So, with some proper funding,

368
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,165
we should be able to get
a functioning beta in time for CES.

Gentlemen, I am aware
of the degree of interest

405
00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:13,246
you are receiving from other firms.

406

I am aware that participation in your Series A
will require a very competitive offer,

but for numerous reasons,
I believe it to be the prudent decision.

No. The credit to you guys.
You negotiated your asses off,

What's wrong with that?

443

that you will never be able to live up to.

then why did your boss offer it to us?

Because she's competitive as hell.

- Okay.
- Look, I respect Laurie,

Have you made a decision

513
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:29,045
Yeah, yeah, we'll go with you guys,
but we need to renegotiate the terms.

514
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:32,169
I'm afraid that's untenable.
We're offering as much money as we can.

Uh, no, no, we wanna go lower.
We want less... A lot less, actually.

We'll go with Raviga

I think this is more reasonable,

520
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,681
and it's my final offer. Take it or leave it.

I was not anticipating this,

522
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,924
but I think it will be workable from our end.

523
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,843
And one more thing,
Monica votes for Raviga's board seat.

524

Certainly that seems unimportant.
