No. I'm okay, thanks.
Brett, as I called him in the old days,
used to run trades through me.
We used to piggyback off each other's ideas.
Then we had a little discrepancy.
I won't bother you with the details.
Just to tell you that it cost me 200,000 bucks,
which was a lot of money back then.
So when I got hot in the '80s,
and I started giving tastes to my friends,
I didn't invite James in, and
he didn't like that very much.
So?
So it's no big deal.
But when you're in prison,
you got a lot of time to think.
In fact, the best memory that I know is hurt.
I did eight years, pal. Five
years before that in court.
Nobody does eight years. They give murderers five.
I thought it was the kid with the airline that gave you up.
Blue Star? Stock Watch? What was it?
- Who, Bud Fox?
- Bud Fox.
No, no, no. He got a wire on him.
He got me for insider trading.
But that's 12, 13 months, max.
After the first charges,
it was one of my co-conspirators
who tipped off the Feds.
And that pious piranha, Bretton James,
he had just enough information to sink me.
You know, of course, I'm never
going to know it for sure.
He offered me a job.
Well, you just rocketed into
the center of the universe, pal.
I think my daughter's future is
looking a hell of a lot better.
I never made any money shorting Hydra.
You're kidding me. You didn't trade it?
That would've been insider trading, Mr. Gekko.
Remember, your daughter and I are engaged.
You wouldn't want to soil her name, right?
Well, you may not have traded,
but you try telling the Feds you didn't commit a felony.
What do you mean?
You know exactly what I mean.
You induced others to trade on information that you
knew to be false.
Hard to prove that.
A fisherman always sees another fisherman from afar.
I think you ought to start calling me Gordon.
Well, I promised you this, Gordon.
Makes us even.
There she is.
But keep this between us, though.
How is that lefty website of hers doing?
- Frozen Truth?
- Yeah.
It's doing well, actually. They
get about 50,000 hits a day.
It's building. Mmm.
She was such a pisser.
