1 00:01:06 Please! Please!
2 00:01:15 I'm sorry, I don't speak Albanian!
3 00:01:20 Stop! I don't understand!
4 00:01:30 Do you understand now?
5 00:01:33 That's a Jericho 941 pointed at my head.
6 00:01:37 You can get oneon the black market for $300.
7 00:01:40 Yeah.
8 00:01:41 It is a very reliable weapon.
9 00:01:45 My name is David Packouz.
10 00:01:48 And I'm an international arms dealer.
11 00:01:55 What do you know about war?
12 00:01:57 They'll tell you it's aboutpatriotism, democracy
13 00:02:01 or some shit about the other guyhating our freedom.
14 00:02:05 But you want to knowwhat it's really about?
15 00:02:07 What do you see?
16 00:02:09 A kid from Arkansas doing hispatriotic duty to defend his country?
17 00:02:14 I see a helmet, fire-retardant gloves,
18 00:02:16 body armor, and an M16.
19 00:02:18 I see $17,500.
20 00:02:22 That's what it costs to outfitone American soldier.
21 00:02:27 Over two million soldiers
22 00:02:28 fought in Iraq and Afghanistan.
23 00:02:32 It cost the American taxpayer$4.5 billion each year
24 00:02:36 just to pay the air conditioning bills
25 00:02:38 for those wars.
26 00:02:41 And that's what war is really about.
27 00:02:44 War is an economy.
28 00:02:48 Anybody who tells you otherwise
29 00:02:50 is either in on it or stupid.
30 00:02:57 But I didn't know that yet.
31 00:03:02 Back then, I didn't know anything.
32 00:03:29 You can't park here.
33 00:03:33 Hey, man. I just gota client at 2150, Mr. Shore.
34 00:03:37 I'm a few minutes early.
35 00:03:39 Yeah? It's a gated community.
36 00:03:41 You still can't park here.
37 00:03:44 You probably shouldn'tsmoke that here, either.
38 00:03:48 Okay. Thanks.
39 00:04:09 There's a lot I could sayabout this period in my life
40 00:04:11 that would give context to this story.
41 00:04:18 I could tell you how
42 00:04:19 I dropped out of collegeafter one semester.
43 00:04:22 - How's that left quad doing?- It's still sore.
44 00:04:25 Had a falling out with my parents.
45 00:04:28 How I either quit or got firedfrom six different jobs.
46 00:04:31 - That's it.- All right. There we go.
47 00:04:37 But looking back I think the mostimportant thing to understand is
48 00:04:42 I was completely lost.
49 00:04:54 Sorry. It fell.
50 00:04:58 That's okay, Gary.
51 00:05:06 I was 22 years old
52 00:05:08 massaging rich dudes in Miami Beachfor 75 bucks an hour.
53 00:05:14 But I'd had enough.
54 00:05:16 It was time to change shit up.
55 00:05:21 And I had a big idea.
56 00:05:40 My plan was to sellquality bed sheets wholesale
57 00:05:43 to all the retirement homesin South Florida.
58 00:05:46 And there were hundreds of them.
59 00:05:51 - It feels really soft.- It should.
60 00:05:53 It's Egyptian cotton, 400 thread count.
61 00:05:56 I mean, it's pretty much top of the linefor institutional use.
62 00:05:59 I don't know. It seems excessive.
63 00:06:01 Well, at $29 per unit,it's far from excessive.
64 00:06:05 David, do you know the average ageof a resident here at Hilldale?
65 00:06:10 Um, no, I don't.
66 00:06:12 - Eighty-two years old.- Wow.
67 00:06:15 Have you ever seen the skinon an 82-year-old man?
68 00:06:18 Have you ever felt it?
69 00:06:20 Yeah. Actually,I'm a certified massage therapist
70 00:06:22 and a lot of my clients are elderly.
71 00:06:24 Then you should know.
72 00:06:25 These sheets,
73 00:06:27 it would be like wrappinga lizard in cashmere.
74 00:06:31 Would you do that?
75 00:06:33 Would you wrap a lizard in cashmere?
76 00:06:37 I guess not.
77 00:06:39 Then why would you expect me to?
78 00:06:45 My nephew.
79 00:06:47 He's good, right?
80 00:06:51 I'd sunk my entire life savingsinto 65 cases of premium bed sheets
81 00:06:56 but I overlooked one crucial factor.
82 00:07:00 No one really cares about old people.
83 00:07:05 Why don't you just sell them back?
84 00:07:07 It doesn't work like that.I bought them in bulk.
85 00:07:11 I'm so fucked.
86 00:07:12 You're not fucked.
87 00:07:14 Pete's fucked.
88 00:07:16 He's dead.
89 00:07:21 Holy shit. Is that Efraim?
90 00:07:27 Yeah.
91 00:07:29 I thought he was still in LA.
92 00:07:31 Me too.
93 00:07:33 - He was a great friend.- Thank you.
94 00:07:35 He looks so tan.
95 00:07:39 Efraim Diveroliwas my best friend growing up.
96 00:07:42 But I hadn't seen him since he was shippedoff to live with his uncle in 10th grade.
97 00:07:47 I think our parents wanted to keep usas far apart as possible.
98 00:07:52 There is no table of contentsin the Book of Life.
99 00:07:57 We don't know if we're at the beginningof a new chapter, or the end of a story.
100 00:08:02 Which is why we must be gratefulevery time the page turns.
101 00:08:07 Did you come back just for this?
102 00:08:09 Fuck no! I barely knew Pete.
103 00:08:11 I was hoping to see you here.
104 00:08:14 You know your momwouldn't give me your number?
105 00:08:16 What, did you call my house?
106 00:08:17 No, I was fucking her.
107 00:08:21 She still hates me, huh?
108 00:08:23 Yeah, most likely.
109 00:08:24 I missed you, bro.
110 00:08:26 Yeah, me too.
111 00:08:28 Let's go for a ride.
112 00:08:29 Uh...
113 00:08:31 I can't. I got a client at 4:00.
114 00:08:33 Fuck that shit. Cancel it.
115 00:08:35 Your boy's back in town.
116 00:08:37 Come on!
117 00:08:47 So, what happened with LA, man?
118 00:08:49 Why did you move back?
119 00:08:50 Oh, you know I was workingfor my uncle, right?
120 00:08:52 Yeah, I heard that you were, like,a gun dealer or something.
121 00:08:55 Pretty much. I mean,
122 00:08:56 we'd buy seized weapons at police auctionsand resell them on the Internet.
123 00:08:59 Cool.
124 00:09:01 It was cool until my unclescumbagged me over 70 grand.
125 00:09:05 Holy shit. Seventy grand?
126 00:09:06 Whatever. Fuck him.I made a bunch of money.
127 00:09:10 I decided I'd come back to Miami,start up my own shop.
128 00:09:13 Cool.
129 00:09:15 Yo, where's this guy live?
130 00:09:17 It's, like, five more minutes.You got somewhere you gotta be?
131 00:09:19 No.
132 00:09:21 All right. So, I can't figure outwhich is worse.
133 00:09:23 The fact that you sellbed sheets to old age homes
134 00:09:26 or that you jerk guys off for money.
135 00:09:27 For the record,I'm a licensed massage therapist, okay?
136 00:09:31 Totally legit.
137 00:09:33 Okay. But at the end,the guys have to come, right?
138 00:09:36 Like, on your chest or whatever?
139 00:09:38 You know what? Fuck you.
140 00:09:40 Fuck you, buddy.
141 00:09:42 Bro, do you remember the last timewe went to buy weed together?
142 00:09:45 Of course I do. It was fucking traumatic.
143 00:09:47 Yeah, but do you remember the next day,when we walked into school
144 00:09:50 and everybody knew that we got arrested?
145 00:09:52 Yeah, we were gangsters, bro.
146 00:09:54 We thought we ran South Beach.
147 00:09:57 We did run yeshiva.
148 00:09:59 We didn't take shit from anyone.
149 00:10:02 Yeah, I miss that.
150 00:10:04 You miss yeshiva?
151 00:10:05 No, I miss
152 00:10:07 not taking shit from anyone.
153 00:10:21 Yo!
154 00:10:24 He out. You looking for weed?
155 00:10:27 Depends. You got good shit?
156 00:10:29 Put it this way. I sell him his shit.
157 00:10:35 What's up with this nigga, man?
158 00:10:36 Cool. Can you do an ounce?
159 00:10:38 Yeah, no sweat. Three bills.
160 00:10:41 Three hundred. I like it.
161 00:10:43 You get the better pricewhen you come direct to the distributor.
162 00:10:45 I guess so.
163 00:10:48 All right.
164 00:10:51 Yeah, so, she opened the door.
165 00:10:52 And I'm like, "Yo. Chill.I ain't about that drama."
166 00:10:54 You know what I mean?
167 00:10:55 "I know you gotanother nigga in the crib."
168 00:10:57 What's up?
169 00:10:59 What?
170 00:11:01 Can I get the shit?
171 00:11:03 What shit?
172 00:11:08 I just gave you $300 for some weed.
173 00:11:11 Any of you niggas everseen this motherfucker before?
174 00:11:14 I ain't seen shit.
175 00:11:18 Man, get the fuck out of here.
176 00:11:28 - All right. All right, okay.- Yeah, yeah.
177 00:11:32 This white boy wild.
178 00:11:33 Parachute pants.
179 00:11:34 Looking like Jay Leno and shit.
180 00:11:37 Look like he going to church.
181 00:11:46 Yo, yo, hold up, hold up, man.
182 00:11:48 - What the fuck.- Shit!
183 00:11:53 Come on! Where's everybody going?
184 00:11:56 I thought we were gonna hang out.
185 00:12:02 What a bunch of assholes.
186 00:12:03 What the fuck was that? Are you crazy?
187 00:12:05 It's cool, bro.
188 00:12:06 I have a Class 3 Firearms license.
189 00:12:09 - Huh?- Come on, get in.
190 00:12:11 I know another dealer nearby.
191 00:12:15 It's weird. We were the same age,but I always looked up to Efraim.
192 00:12:20 When life kicked me, I stayed down.
193 00:12:24 But not Efraim. He kicked back.
194 00:12:27 Mr. President, we want to thank you
195 00:12:29 for visiting us here today.
196 00:12:30 We are honored to be serving our country,
197 00:12:33 and proud to welcome you,
198 00:12:35 our wartime Commander in Chief...
199 00:12:38 - Hey.- Hey, sweetie.
200 00:12:42 How was the funeral?
201 00:12:43 It was amazing.
202 00:12:48 Oh, my God. You're so stoned, aren't you?
203 00:12:51 Huh? What?
204 00:12:53 You just described a funeral as "amazing."
205 00:12:56 What? No. The funeral was really sad.
206 00:12:58 Yeah, everyone was totally bummed out.
207 00:13:01 But I ran into my friend from growing up.
208 00:13:03 The guy I told you about. Efraim Diveroli?
209 00:13:06 The one you got arrested with?
210 00:13:08 Yeah. I mean, we didsome other stuff too, but...
211 00:13:12 Anyway, he just moved back to Miami.
212 00:13:14 That's great, right?
213 00:13:16 Yeah. I'm supposedto swing by his office tomorrow.
214 00:13:19 We're gonna grab lunch.
215 00:13:21 - Okay.- Are you hungry?
216 00:13:23 - Hmm?- I'm so hungry.
217 00:13:25 - We don't have much here.- Oh.
218 00:13:28 - I mean, we have pizza.- Really?
219 00:13:31 - And nachos.- We have nachos?
220 00:13:33 And ice cream.
221 00:13:34 Wait, what? We never have ice cream.
222 00:13:39 You're fucking with me, aren't you?
223 00:13:41 That is so mean.
224 00:13:45 That was so easy.
225 00:13:53 Hello?
226 00:13:54 Hello, Mr. Borstein.This is David Packouz.
227 00:13:57 You told me to call today at 11:00.
228 00:13:58 I have those bed sheets with me,and I would love for you to take a look.
229 00:14:04 Uh, sir, if you give me the chance
230 00:14:07 I am confident that your residents
231 00:14:09 will appreciate the difference.
232 00:14:11 It's an expense we can't justify,and we're just not interested.
233 00:14:15 Uh-huh.
234 00:14:16 Okay, well, thank you for your time.
235 00:14:32 Yeah, this is contract specialist
236 00:14:33 Lindsey Michaelsfrom Army Command, Picatinny.
237 00:14:41 That's right.
238 00:14:43 Yeah, I sent out a solicitationfor some 249s for Basra
239 00:14:46 and we seem to havemisplaced your paperwork.
240 00:14:51 Great. So if you can go aheadand just re-email me those numbers.
241 00:14:53 Actually, you know what?On second thought,
242 00:14:56 we're about to makea decision on those RFPs.
243 00:14:58 Why don't you go ahead and just give meyour bid while I got you here on the phone?
244 00:15:03 Uh-huh.
245 00:15:04 And does that include mags?
246 00:15:07 Great. Yes, sir.
247 00:15:09 You keep supplying the guns,we'll keep killing the bad guys.
248 00:15:12 God bless you.
249 00:15:14 What a fucking tool. What's up, bro?
250 00:15:16 Yo, what's up, man?What was that all about?
251 00:15:18 Oh, that was meimpersonating an army officer.
252 00:15:20 Really? What for?
253 00:15:22 To find out what my competitor'sbidding on a contract.
254 00:15:25 It's fucking genius.
255 00:15:27 I thought that you said you sold, like,seized weapons to gun nuts on the Internet.
256 00:15:30 Not anymore.
257 00:15:32 Now I only sell to one gun nut.
258 00:15:34 Oh, yeah? Which one?
259 00:15:36 The U.S. Military, motherfucker.
260 00:15:41 Wanna do a bong hit?
261 00:15:57 Pretty sick, huh?
262 00:15:58 So what, you sell these thingsto the Pentagon?
263 00:16:01 I sell all kinds of shit to the Pentagon.
264 00:16:03 Guns, bullets, body armor.
265 00:16:06 Last week, I shipped 400 gas masksto American Special Forces in Iraq.
266 00:16:11 No shit.
267 00:16:14 How long you been doing this for?
268 00:16:16 Two, three months.
269 00:16:18 And you make good money?
270 00:16:20 Oh! Fuck, man.
271 00:16:22 Put it this way.I did over 200K in the past eight weeks.
272 00:16:27 And I'm only telling you thatbecause you're my boy.
273 00:16:29 I'm not bragging.
274 00:16:31 Holy shit.
275 00:16:33 Yeah. Check this out.
276 00:16:36 Fed Biz Opps stands forFederal Business Opportunities.
277 00:16:39 Think eBay, but for war.
278 00:16:42 - They buy tanks on here?- Bro, they buy everything on here.
279 00:16:45 It was crazy.
280 00:16:46 The government had a public website
281 00:16:49 containing every military contractcurrently up for bidding.
282 00:16:52 But I skip the big ticket items,and look for the small-ball shit
283 00:16:55 that giant defense contractors ignore.
284 00:16:57 Everybody's fighting over the same pie.
285 00:17:00 But they're ignoring the crumbs.
286 00:17:02 I live on crumbs, like a rat.
287 00:17:04 And when you're dealing with the Pentagon,crumbs are worth millions.
288 00:17:08 These listings seemed to go on forever.
289 00:17:11 And according to Efraim, they did.
290 00:17:16 Thanks, man.
291 00:17:19 So, I don't get it.
292 00:17:20 If there's an entire defense industry,
293 00:17:22 why would the Pentagonwant to buy anything from you?
294 00:17:25 They don't want to, they have to.
295 00:17:28 Remember Little League?
296 00:17:29 How, at the end of the season,they'd give out that big MVP trophy
297 00:17:32 and that one kid would always win it?
298 00:17:34 Yeah, Evan Talbot.
299 00:17:35 Right. But then, one year,somebody's mom complained?
300 00:17:38 Then they had to give everybodya little trophy so they wouldn't feel bad?
301 00:17:41 Even that fat retarded kid,Robbie Friedman, got one.
302 00:17:45 That's kind of like what's happening here.
303 00:17:47 I'm still confused, man.
304 00:17:49 The Pentagon fucked upwhen they were rebuilding the Iraqi Army.
305 00:17:52 They gave all these no-bid contractsto Cheney's boys, and they got caught.
306 00:17:57 So Bush started this initiativeto level the playing field
307 00:17:59 and now every Pentagon purchase,every gun, every grenade,
308 00:18:03 every bullet, gets offered tosmall businesses for bidding.
309 00:18:07 And sure, the big dogsstill get the big trophies.
310 00:18:10 But the Pentagon'sgot to give little trophies
311 00:18:13 to all the Robbie Friedmans of the world.
312 00:18:15 So, basically, you're a fat retarded kid.
313 00:18:17 Bro, I'm the fattest and most retarded.
314 00:18:24 In a speech today, President Bushsaid that contrary to reports
315 00:18:27 he has no plans to attack Iran.
316 00:18:31 The President said, "That's ridiculous.
317 00:18:32 "We didn't even have planswhen we attacked Iraq. "
318 00:18:37 David.
319 00:18:38 Yeah?
320 00:18:40 Remember a few weeks ago, in the caron the way home from my mom's house?
321 00:18:46 Yes. Yes, I do.
322 00:18:50 Well, this happened.
323 00:19:03 How the fuck are you going to feed a baby?
324 00:19:07 Have you even thought about this?
325 00:19:09 What are you going to do?
326 00:19:10 Jerk men off the rest of your life?
327 00:19:12 Yeah, that's the plan.I'm gonna feed my kid by jerking men off.
328 00:19:16 Sorry.
329 00:19:17 Okay, good. Well, at leastyou thought it through.
330 00:19:19 It's not funny.
331 00:19:22 Dude, I am so fucked.
332 00:19:27 I think you should come work for me.
333 00:19:30 What are you talking about?
334 00:19:32 Seriously, I need the help.
335 00:19:35 David, look at me.
336 00:19:38 Bush opened the floodgates in Iraq.
337 00:19:40 It's a fucking gold rush.
338 00:19:43 That's really nice of you, Efraim.
339 00:19:45 Fuck nice! Who cares about nice?
340 00:19:47 I've been looking to bringsomebody on for a while now.
341 00:19:49 The problem is, I don't trust anyone.
342 00:19:52 But you're my boy.
343 00:19:55 I mean, no offense,but I'm against this war.
344 00:19:59 Me and Iz are going to ralliesand signing petitions.
345 00:20:03 Yeah, dude, I'm against the war too.
346 00:20:05 I fucking hate Bush.
347 00:20:07 But this isn't about being pro-war.
348 00:20:10 The war is happening.
349 00:20:12 This is about being pro-money.
350 00:20:14 The more Efraim talked,the more it made sense.
351 00:20:17 Besides, compared to my other prospects,
352 00:20:20 this was the chance of a lifetime.
353 00:20:22 My only issue was, what would I tell Iz?
354 00:20:26 I think it's a great idea.
355 00:20:29 So I lied.
356 00:20:30 You know I've alwaysbelieved in this business.
357 00:20:34 I told her that Efraimhad great contacts in the government.
358 00:20:36 And instead of selling bed sheets
359 00:20:38 to penny-pinching retirement homes
360 00:20:41 we'd now be selling sheetsto the free-spending,
361 00:20:43 overfunded U.S. Military.
362 00:20:45 It's genius.
363 00:20:51 I had to lie. Iz hated the war.
364 00:20:55 She had two cousins serving in Iraq.
365 00:20:59 She also hated the mountain of bed sheetsthat were taking up half our apartment.
366 00:21:11 I spent the next six weeksin a crash course on arms dealing.
367 00:21:14 The Herstal 556 light machine gun.
368 00:21:16 Belgian, but made under licensein lots of places.
369 00:21:18 When it came to this shit,Efraim knew everything.
370 00:21:21 Makes, models, weights, where it was made.
371 00:21:25 Remember, there's been an arms embargoagainst China since Tiananmen Square.
372 00:21:28 And if there was an angle tobe played, he knew about that too.
373 00:21:31 You have to read betweenthe lines with this stuff.
374 00:21:33 All the money is made between the lines.
375 00:21:36 I'd spend my entire dayscouring the government's website,
376 00:21:39 searching for overlooked contractsthat we could squeeze our way into.
377 00:21:43 Hey, I think I got something.
378 00:21:46 Hey, Georgia, I gotta call you back.
379 00:21:47 And then, in the middle of the night
380 00:21:49 we'd be back in the office,working the phones.
381 00:21:52 Forging relationships
382 00:21:53 with weapon manufacturersall over Eastern Europe.
383 00:21:57 No, David Packouz from AEY.
384 00:22:00 I told Iz we were doing conference callswith sheet suppliers in Pakistan.
385 00:22:07 They called guys like us war dogs.
386 00:22:09 Bottom feeders who make money off of war
387 00:22:11 without ever stepping footon the battlefield.
388 00:22:14 It was meant to be derogatory,but we kinda liked it.
389 00:22:18 You fucking scumbag piece of shit!
390 00:22:21 Drown, motherfucker, drown!
391 00:22:29 Very nice.
392 00:22:31 Ralph Slutsky was Efraim's silent partner.
393 00:22:36 He was a local businessman
394 00:22:37 who owned 14 dry cleanersall across Miami.
395 00:22:41 Why didn't anybody tell methe mister is broken?
396 00:22:44 Ralph put up the money to back the dealsin exchange for 25% of the company.
397 00:22:49 Or at least what he thought was 25%.
398 00:22:53 We're doing God's work, Ralph.
399 00:22:56 We really are.
400 00:22:58 You know, every Jew owes a debt to Israel.
401 00:23:00 In my mind, this is nota metaphorical debt.
402 00:23:03 Ralph was under the impressionthat Efraim was an observant Jew
403 00:23:06 who only dealt arms as a means
404 00:23:08 to protect Israel from her enemies.
405 00:23:10 Beautifully said.
406 00:23:12 Did you happen to catchlast Friday's Torah portion?
407 00:23:14 - One of my favorites.- Same here.
408 00:23:17 It reminds me so muchof this story I once read.
409 00:23:20 About a young man traveling to Pinsk.
410 00:23:23 And that was Efraim's genius.
411 00:23:25 He would figure outwho someone wanted him to be
412 00:23:29 and he would become that person.
413 00:23:35 Ah!
414 00:23:41 And he's got, like, 20,000 of them.
415 00:23:43 Great. Where did you find this guy?
416 00:23:45 You remember Victor in the Ukraine?
417 00:23:47 Yeah, the one with the Mk3s?
418 00:23:49 Yeah. He turned meon to this company in Cyprus.
419 00:23:52 It's run by this guy, Henry Girard.
420 00:23:55 Henry Girard?
421 00:23:57 Yeah, you know him?
422 00:23:58 You spoke to Henry Girard?
423 00:24:00 A couple of times. Why? Who is he?
424 00:24:03 Dude, for the last 20 years,this guy has basically supplied
425 00:24:07 both sides of every conflicton the planet.
426 00:24:09 He's a fucking animal.
427 00:24:11 Really? Why is he calling me?
428 00:24:14 Because he's a fucking animal.
429 00:24:16 It's all money and it all matters.
430 00:24:19 Hey, mami, where are you going?
431 00:24:21 I'm trying to find my friends.
432 00:24:23 You want to make some money?
433 00:24:25 Excuse me?
434 00:24:26 I'll give you $1,000 right now
435 00:24:29 if we fast forward to our third date.
436 00:24:31 What does that even mean?
437 00:24:32 It means we just had a great dinner,maybe met your friends for some drinks
438 00:24:36 and now you're about to blow me in my car.
439 00:24:38 Can we just get right to that part?
440 00:24:40 Who the fuck are you?
441 00:24:41 Efraim Diveroli.
442 00:24:43 That's my best friend, David.
443 00:24:44 And we're international arms dealers.
444 00:24:46 But you already know that
445 00:24:47 because we're on our third date.
446 00:24:50 - What's going on?- Nothing, bro.
447 00:24:52 I'm about to get out of here with my girl.
448 00:24:56 What the fuck, man!
449 00:25:07 Oh, my God.
450 00:25:10 That guy was not fucking around.
451 00:25:14 Yeah, you probably should havepicked a different girl.
452 00:25:16 Fuck that, it almost worked.
453 00:25:21 Hey, do you remember when you foughtEric Moscowitz in sixth grade?
454 00:25:25 Yeah, he did that windmill thingwith his arms.
455 00:25:28 That was the sickest. He was unbeatable.
456 00:25:30 You remember that shit?
457 00:25:32 That's it.
458 00:25:34 Dude, he would have killed meif you didn't jump in.
459 00:25:36 Probably. Mmm.
460 00:25:40 Hey, I never said "thank you."
461 00:25:44 For everything.
462 00:25:46 Come on, you know how muchyou've helped me out lately.
463 00:25:48 It's cool. You don't have tomake it weird, all right?
464 00:25:53 Hey, can we order some food?
465 00:25:56 Mami, come on.I could have gone to Cuba and back.
466 00:25:58 Met the family,grabbed a couple sandwiches.
467 00:26:00 I'd be done by now.
468 00:26:02 Hello?
469 00:26:05 Yes, sir. Sorry, I wasn't expectinga work call this late.
470 00:26:08 Right, of course.It's 9:00 a.m. in Baghdad.
471 00:26:11 Who is it?
472 00:26:12 That's great news, Captain Santos.
473 00:26:17 Yes, sir.
474 00:26:18 We're going to get right on that.
475 00:26:20 Thank you. Bye.
476 00:26:21 What?
477 00:26:25 We just got the Beretta deal.
478 00:26:26 Get the fuck out of here.
479 00:26:28 I swear to God.
480 00:26:29 The Beretta deal was massive.
481 00:26:31 It was 10 times biggerthan anything we'd closed so far.
482 00:26:35 This was next level shit.
483 00:26:37 That's what I'm fucking talking about!
484 00:26:39 That's real money, motherfucker! Fuck!
485 00:26:42 Do you realize we're going to make 600K
486 00:26:44 on this fucking thing?
487 00:26:46 Holy shit.
488 00:26:47 David, your 30% is $180,000.
489 00:26:51 Holy fucking shit!
490 00:26:54 It was amazing.
491 00:26:56 I'd been working with Efraimfor two months
492 00:26:58 and was already about to make more money
493 00:27:00 than a lifetime of massages.
494 00:27:14 Listen.
495 00:27:19 What is that?
496 00:27:20 That's your baby's heartbeat.
497 00:27:22 Wow.
498 00:27:25 Can you believe how fast it is?
499 00:27:28 - Is that normal?- Totally normal.
500 00:27:30 Fetuses have a much faster heart ratethan we do.
501 00:27:36 Look.
502 00:27:39 So, you guys want to know the sex?
503 00:27:42 We keep going back and forth on it.
504 00:27:47 - What do you think?- Um...
505 00:27:51 This is work. I have to take it.
506 00:27:53 I'm so sorry.
507 00:27:55 This is David.
508 00:27:56 This is Captain Santos in Baghdad
509 00:27:58 checking on the deliverystatus of my Berettas.
510 00:28:01 Captain, good to hear from you.
511 00:28:03 Yes, we are on target. All good.
512 00:28:05 Great. I was worried
513 00:28:07 those guns were comingdirect out of Italy.
514 00:28:09 Absolutely. They are, sir.
515 00:28:13 Packouz, please tell me
516 00:28:15 you're aware of the legislationthe Italians passed last week.
517 00:28:18 The one banningall arms shipments to Iraq.
518 00:28:21 I had no clue what he was talking about.
519 00:28:24 But this was a huge fucking problem.
520 00:28:27 Berettas are an Italian gun.
521 00:28:29 Made and manufactured in Italy.
522 00:28:32 Uh...
523 00:28:33 Of course.
524 00:28:34 I am. I've been on the phone
525 00:28:36 for the last three days,making other arrangements.
526 00:28:38 Great. That's what I wanted to hear.
527 00:28:41 Iraqi police force is depending on you.
528 00:28:44 Well, you tell them AEYhas got them covered.
529 00:28:46 - Outstanding.- Thanks, Captain. Talk soon.
530 00:28:55 Everything okay?
531 00:28:58 Yeah. Yeah, everything's fine.
532 00:29:01 What happened? We done already?
533 00:29:03 Yeah. Guess what?
534 00:29:08 It's a girl.
535 00:29:15 Baby.
536 00:29:25 Okay. At least I hit something.
537 00:29:27 Seriously, what the fuckare we going to do?
538 00:29:30 Relax, bro.
539 00:29:32 Should I just call him backand tell him the truth?
540 00:29:35 When does telling the truthever help anybody?
541 00:29:38 Efraim, we can't dick around with this guy
542 00:29:40 and then not deliver.
543 00:29:42 We're going to deliver.I already figured it out.
544 00:29:44 We use Jordan.
545 00:29:46 Jordan Goldfarb?
546 00:29:47 Jordan...
547 00:29:49 Jordan the country.
548 00:29:50 It shares a border with Iraq.It's a U.S. ally.
549 00:29:53 And most importantly, there's no embargo.
550 00:29:57 Okay, so what do we tell the Italians?
551 00:29:59 Fuck them! As far as they're concerned
552 00:30:01 they're sending 5,000 Berettasto a country they have no issue with.
553 00:30:04 All we have to do is ship the guns
554 00:30:07 from Jordan to Baghdad.
555 00:30:09 It's called circumvention.
556 00:30:12 Is that legal?
557 00:30:14 It's not illegal.
558 00:30:17 Want to try?
559 00:30:21 How did that charity thing go?
560 00:30:22 It was 5K, right?
561 00:30:24 It was supposed to be a 5K.
562 00:30:25 Uh, I finished about 1 K of it.
563 00:30:28 So, I should probably returnfour-fifths of the money.
564 00:30:32 So, Andrew told me
565 00:30:34 you and Efraim are working together now?
566 00:30:36 Really?
567 00:30:38 Yeah, I told her about the sheet thing.
568 00:30:40 Yeah. Efraim has some contactswith the government.
569 00:30:42 So we're just combining forces right now.
570 00:30:46 Yeah, just... Just be careful with him.
571 00:30:48 - Emily, don't.- What?
572 00:30:50 How do you mean?
573 00:30:52 Well, his cousin, Rebecca,is an old friend of mine.
574 00:30:55 We went to camp together.
575 00:30:56 And she told methat he stole $70,000 from her father.
576 00:31:00 Whoa, really?
577 00:31:01 That's interesting.
578 00:31:03 I actually heardit was the other way around.
579 00:31:04 That his uncle is the onewho stole the money from him.
580 00:31:07 See? You don't know.
581 00:31:09 Everyone has their own version of a story.
582 00:31:10 No, I'm pretty certain.
583 00:31:12 Their whole familystopped talking to him over it.
584 00:31:14 Yo! Why aren't you answering your phone?
585 00:31:17 Hey, what's up, man?
586 00:31:21 Fuck is this?
587 00:31:22 Everyone, this is David'sbusiness partner, Efraim.
588 00:31:25 - Hey, man.- Hey, man.
589 00:31:28 Bro, could I talk to yououtside for a minute?
590 00:31:29 - It's urgent.- Yeah, of course.
591 00:31:32 And for the record,I'm also his best friend,
592 00:31:34 so probably should have beeninvited to whatever this is.
593 00:31:40 Look, these are her friends.This is her dinner party.
594 00:31:43 Rosen is her friend now? That Jew fuck?
595 00:31:46 Trust me, you don't want to be here.
596 00:31:47 I don't want to be here, all right?
597 00:31:49 Now, what's going on?
598 00:31:50 Jordanian customs seized our Berettas.
599 00:31:52 - What? Why?- I don't fucking know, David.
600 00:31:55 I dropped out of high school beforethey covered international diplomacy.
601 00:31:59 - Who's that?- Fuck, it's Santos.
602 00:32:01 He knows!
603 00:32:04 Pick it up, I want to listen.
604 00:32:06 - Pick... Pick up the fucking phone.- This is David.
605 00:32:08 Yeah, I just heard my gunsare being held up in Jordan.
606 00:32:11 Captain Santos, yes,there's been a slight hiccup.
607 00:32:14 What are they even doing in Jordan?
608 00:32:16 Not to worry.
609 00:32:17 They're in a hangar in Amman.Totally safe.
610 00:32:20 My team and I are workingon a solution right now.
611 00:32:22 You didn't answer my question.
612 00:32:24 What the fuck are my guns doing in Jordan?
613 00:32:27 Captain Santos, this is Efraim Diveroli.
614 00:32:29 President of AEY, sir.
615 00:32:31 David has apprised me of the situation andwe are looking at options as we speak.
616 00:32:34 Options? What kind of options?
617 00:32:36 Well, are you familiarwith the Corvus TP1 9?
618 00:32:39 That's Brazilian and it's shit.
619 00:32:41 Contract says Berettas, I want Berettas.
620 00:32:43 Sir, I need you to workwith us a little on this.
621 00:32:45 Let me get this straight.
622 00:32:47 I'm in the ass crack of the world,defending your freedom.
623 00:32:50 And I got to work with you shit bags?
624 00:32:53 Look, I don't know
625 00:32:54 if those Berettas are really in Amman orif you're just trying to goose your profits
626 00:32:58 like every other piece of shitin your miserable, rat-fuck profession.
627 00:33:01 Either way, you're endangering my mission.
628 00:33:04 I'm shutting you down.
629 00:33:05 I'm canceling you for cause.
630 00:33:08 Getting canceled for causewas a death sentence.
631 00:33:11 It meant we would neverwin another contract.
632 00:33:16 Captain, please do not do that.
633 00:33:20 I know you're upset.
634 00:33:21 But from one Christian to another
635 00:33:25 my wife and I are havingserious financial problems.
636 00:33:31 Our son, Lucas, is in the hospital.
637 00:33:33 Medical bills are through the roof.
638 00:33:36 If you do this, it'll ruin me.It'll ruin my family.
639 00:33:40 As God as my witness,
640 00:33:41 I will get you your guns.
641 00:33:43 Hello?
642 00:33:45 What a fucking piece of shit!Do you believe this fucking guy?
643 00:33:48 - Fuck.- What's going on?
644 00:33:53 What guns, David?
645 00:33:57 Are you fucking kidding me?
646 00:33:59 You told me you guyswere selling bed sheets.
647 00:34:02 Yeah, and I also told youthat we're selling other stuff too.
648 00:34:05 I thought you meant pillows!
649 00:34:07 Look, I can't support a kidby giving massages.
650 00:34:10 Okay? And nobodywas buying the bed sheets.
651 00:34:12 No, David, you lied to me.
652 00:34:14 Because I know how you feel about the war.
653 00:34:16 I thought we both felt that way!
654 00:34:19 I'm five months pregnant!
655 00:34:21 And it's a problemif I can't trust the man
656 00:34:23 I'm having a baby with!
657 00:34:24 - Of course you can trust me.- Really?
658 00:34:27 Because five minutes ago, I didn'teven know you were an arms dealer!
659 00:34:30 I'm not an arms dealer.
660 00:34:31 What we do is perfectly legal.
661 00:34:33 We work for the government.We're middlemen.
662 00:34:35 We don't touch the guns,we don't see the guns.
663 00:34:38 We never even leave the office.
664 00:34:40 Hey, sorry to interrupt.It's time sensitive.
665 00:34:42 David, do you have a passport?
666 00:34:44 What? Yeah, why?
667 00:34:46 We have to go to Jordan. Like, ASAP.
668 00:34:49 Straighten this shit out.
669 00:34:50 We gotta talk, whatever, okay?
670 00:34:52 Yeah.
671 00:34:53 Yo, you window or aisle?
672 00:35:01 - Excuse me, sorry.- Yeah, we just landed.
673 00:35:05 - Excuse me.- The Embassy call?
674 00:35:07 Excuse me. Okay, bye.
675 00:35:10 - Sorry, kind of an emergency.- Excuse me. Sorry.
676 00:35:13 Don't worry, I have to go first.I'm American.
677 00:35:15 I'm sorry.
678 00:35:30 The American Embassyoffered little to no help
679 00:35:32 in dealing with the Ministry of Customs.
680 00:35:34 So we took matters into our own hands.
681 00:35:47 He says your permit has expired
682 00:35:49 and that you can't fly your cratesout of Jordan without one.
683 00:35:52 Yeah, we know. That's why we're here.
684 00:35:54 Look, we were told thatyou know people in the government,
685 00:35:58 that maybe you can help us out.
686 00:36:13 He says it will take six weeksto get a new permit.
687 00:36:16 Yeah, that's the issue.We don't have six weeks.
688 00:36:18 We need our guns today.
689 00:36:22 Look, I don't want to come offas the ugly American here.
690 00:36:26 And maybe I don't understandthe rituals of your culture
691 00:36:30 but this feels like the moment
692 00:36:31 where we are supposed to offerhim a gift, am I correct?
693 00:36:34 - You are correct.- All right.
694 00:36:39 $1,400 U.S. Cool?
695 00:36:42 Cool, man.
696 00:36:44 Could have just started with that,you know, saved all this bullshit.
697 00:36:47 I like your shades.
698 00:36:49 Tell him I'll give him100 bucks for those shades.
699 00:36:50 Tell him in gibberish.
700 00:36:56 No way. Alligator.
701 00:36:58 Yeah, I know. I...
702 00:37:00 It's Lacoste. It's actually a crocodile.
703 00:37:03 I like fancy shit, that's my thing.
704 00:37:06 Tell him.
705 00:37:10 For three days, we didn't hear anything.
706 00:37:13 It was ridiculous.
707 00:37:15 Our entire business was riding on the wordof an 11-year-old translator.
708 00:37:20 Motherfucker! He ripped us off!
709 00:37:24 We don't know that yet.
710 00:37:26 No! I know what it feels liketo fuck somebody.
711 00:37:28 I also know what it feels liketo get fucked by somebody.
712 00:37:30 And we just got fucked.
713 00:37:33 You need to chill out.
714 00:37:35 How am I supposed to chill out, David?
715 00:37:36 We're in a Muslim country,I can't even get a blowjob!
716 00:37:39 It's embarrassing!
717 00:37:41 It's chaos here! Fuck!
718 00:37:53 Yeah.
719 00:37:55 Right now?
720 00:37:57 We're coming down.
721 00:37:58 That was Aladdin. They're in the lobby.
722 00:38:00 See that? Come on.
723 00:38:04 Hold on. Are you fucking kidding me?
724 00:38:07 What's the problem?
725 00:38:08 You wanted your guns back,he got you your guns back.
726 00:38:12 What? No, we said we needed a permitto fly them to Iraq.
727 00:38:15 Exactly, but you don't needa permit to drive them.
728 00:38:19 You expect us to drive them to Iraq?
729 00:38:22 Why not? Marlboro is the bestsmuggler in all of Jordan.
730 00:38:26 Who, this?
731 00:38:27 This is the best smugglerin all of Jordan?
732 00:38:30 Yeah, he drives to Baghdadthree, four times a month.
733 00:38:35 Efraim, you want to weigh in here?
734 00:38:38 Yo, how far is it to Baghdad?
735 00:38:40 - Why are you asking him that?- 800 kilometers.
736 00:38:43 And he knows what he's doing?
737 00:38:45 Efraim, stop.
738 00:38:46 - 100% the best.- Come on.
739 00:38:48 It's like 500 miles.We'll be there by morning.
740 00:38:52 You seriously want to drive to Baghdad?
741 00:38:55 David, we're gunrunners.
742 00:38:58 Let's go run some fucking guns.
743 00:39:01 Let's go.
744 00:39:04 Come on.
745 00:39:11 Hey, seriously, is this safe?Driving to Baghdad?
746 00:39:15 Yes, very safe.
747 00:39:17 50-50.
748 00:39:21 50-50? What, like 50% we live, 50% we die?
749 00:39:24 Yes. That is why we drive through night.
750 00:39:28 It is much safer.
751 00:39:30 How much safer?
752 00:39:32 50-50.
753 00:39:33 Bro, what the fuck!
754 00:39:35 Obviously, he doesn't knowwhat 50-50 means.
755 00:39:39 Oh, my God.
756 00:39:40 Hey, what about gas though?It's a long trip, no?
757 00:39:43 No problem. Petrol free in Iraq.
758 00:39:46 No kidding.
759 00:39:48 - Free gas?- Yeah.
760 00:39:50 See what I'm talking about? Iraq is dope.
761 00:39:55 I'm thinking about getting a place there.
762 00:39:58 Free gas.
763 00:40:00 Fucking cool, man.
764 00:40:25 What is that?
765 00:40:29 What?
766 00:40:31 You don't see that?
767 00:40:34 What the fuck?
768 00:40:36 Hey, why are you slowing down, man?
769 00:40:38 It's okay, it's okay.
770 00:40:40 What's okay?
771 00:40:42 Whoa, whoa. What the fuck, bro?
772 00:40:44 It's okay. Border.
773 00:40:47 What, this?
774 00:40:50 Fuck.
775 00:40:58 - Jesus.- Put down.
776 00:40:59 - Huh?- Put down.
777 00:41:15 Whoa, whoa.
778 00:41:22 Cigarettes.
779 00:41:26 For you.
780 00:41:28 Welcome.
781 00:42:06 It was fucking surreal.
782 00:42:09 Six months ago,I was a massage therapist in Miami Beach.
783 00:42:13 And now, here I was,driving a truckload of guns
784 00:42:16 through the Iraqi desert
785 00:42:17 with my best friend from junior high.
786 00:43:36 Marlboro?
787 00:43:47 Hey, Marlboro?
788 00:44:13 Bro!
789 00:44:16 There's a dead body in the gas station!
790 00:44:17 What the fuck!
791 00:44:20 Where are we? Where's Marlboro?
792 00:44:22 Did you not hear what I just said?
793 00:44:24 There's a fucking dead body in there, man!
794 00:44:25 Yes, I heard you.
795 00:44:27 All right, we're in a war zone, bro.
796 00:44:28 There's dead bodies, relax.
797 00:44:33 All right, I gotta take a leak.
798 00:44:36 What?
799 00:44:43 Be careful.
800 00:44:44 I'm good, bro.I know how to take a piss, all right?
801 00:44:54 Shit.
802 00:45:16 Fuck.
803 00:45:30 - Hello?- Hey.
804 00:45:32 Hey, babe, is everything okay?
805 00:45:34 Yeah.
806 00:45:36 What time is it there?
807 00:45:37 It's, uh, 7:30 in the morning.
808 00:45:41 Shit, did I wake you?
809 00:45:42 No, I'm just at the hotel.We're about to have some breakfast.
810 00:45:46 Listen, I'm not saying I like it,
811 00:45:48 but I get why you're doing this.
812 00:45:53 You do?
813 00:45:54 This whole time I never thoughtabout what you must be going through.
814 00:45:57 All the pressure you're under.
815 00:46:00 It's just the lying that kills me.
816 00:46:04 It makes me feel like I'm in this alone.
817 00:46:09 No, you're not in this alone.
818 00:46:13 I need you to knowthat you can tell me anything, David.
819 00:46:16 We're partners, remember?
820 00:46:22 David?
821 00:46:24 Yeah, I gotta call you right back.
822 00:46:25 - Is everything okay?- Yeah, everything's fine.
823 00:46:27 I'm just going to call youright back, okay?
824 00:46:28 I love you. Bye.

832 00:46:51 Go, go! Come on.
833 00:46:52 What the fuck! It won't start!

841 00:47:30 Go, go!
842 00:47:32 Come on!
843 00:47:42 Are you kidding me?
844 00:47:43 We stopped for gas in Fallujah?
845 00:47:45 You cheap fuck!
846 00:47:48 Go!
847 00:47:50 Fuck you, Marlboro!
848 00:47:52 Fuck.

852 00:48:06 They're stopping.
853 00:48:08 What the fuck? Look.
854 00:48:11 Holy fuck, bro.
855 00:48:16 Oh, fuck! All right!
856 00:48:21 God bless Dick Cheney's America!
857 00:49:00 Look at this fucking place. Oh, my God.
858 00:49:13 Excuse me, sir?
859 00:49:16 What?
860 00:49:18 There are some guys here to see you.
861 00:49:19 Some guys?
862 00:49:24 What kind of guys?
863 00:49:26 Hey, Marlboro!
864 00:49:27 Give us a smile, gorgeous.
865 00:49:30 Let me see those pearly yellows.
866 00:49:33 You're like an Iraqi Tom Selleck, bro.
867 00:49:37 You guys are AEY?
868 00:49:39 Yes, sir. David Packouz.
869 00:49:41 This is my colleague, Efraim Diveroli.
870 00:49:44 We spoke on the phone.
871 00:49:46 I remember.
872 00:49:52 You drove these?
873 00:49:54 Through the Triangle of Death?
874 00:50:01 Fucking A right we did.
875 00:50:04 Kip, take these boys over to the cage,get them paid.
876 00:50:08 Right away, sir.
877 00:50:09 I was wrong about you two.
878 00:50:13 Great fucking job, boys.
879 00:50:15 Great fucking job.
880 00:50:20 Holy shit, the Triangle of Death, bro?
881 00:50:25 That's right.That's the AEY guarantee, bitch.
882 00:50:29 We drive through all triangles,including your mom's.
883 00:50:33 Hey, Kip, snap a photo of us, pal.
884 00:50:35 All right.
885 00:50:40 Ready?
886 00:50:42 - How's my hair?- It's good, slicked back.
887 00:50:45 Thank you.
888 00:50:46 - Got you.- Let me see it.
889 00:50:49 Helmut fucking Newton over here.
890 00:50:50 All right, man.
891 00:50:52 - Perfect.- All right, all right.
892 00:50:54 Let's go get fucking paid.
893 00:51:01 Holy shit.
894 00:51:03 Crazy, right? $12.2 billion.
895 00:51:07 It's all seizedfrom the godfather himself.
896 00:51:10 You guys callSaddam Hussein the godfather?
897 00:51:13 Look at all this cash, bro.What would you call him?
898 00:51:17 $2.8 million.
899 00:51:19 - Just sign here.- You got it.
900 00:51:27 We got a military escort to the airport
901 00:51:29 and got the fuck out of Baghdad.
902 00:51:36 There was almost $3 million in cash
903 00:51:39 stuffed into our Army-issued duffel bags.
904 00:51:46 You might thinkafter barely surviving Iraq
905 00:51:48 that we'd be done.
906 00:51:50 But you'd be wrong.
907 00:51:55 You see, the Beretta dealput us on the map.
908 00:51:58 After that, we started killing it.
909 00:52:06 We bought matching Porsches.
910 00:52:08 We bought two apartmentsin the same building.
911 00:52:13 Oh, my God.
912 00:52:20 Holy shit, bro.
913 00:52:26 Oh!
914 00:52:28 Whoo!
915 00:52:32 Ralph was so happy with his returns
916 00:52:34 that he increased his original investment
917 00:52:36 in AEY by $10 million.
918 00:52:43 That gave us enough capitalto pursue more deals
919 00:52:46 and expand the company.
920 00:52:48 Which is exactly what we did.
921 00:52:56 I cannot stress this enough.
922 00:52:59 You need to be scouring this website.
923 00:53:03 Day and night.
924 00:53:04 It is updated by the minute.
925 00:53:07 There are tens of thousands ofsolicitations on this website.
926 00:53:12 Each one is 40 to 50 pages long.
927 00:53:16 If you see something interesting,
928 00:53:19 you bring it to me.
929 00:53:21 If you bring it to me,
930 00:53:25 I'll make you rich.
931 00:53:28 Fact, 18 months ago,
932 00:53:30 David here was jerking off guys for money.
933 00:53:32 Actually, that is not a fact.
934 00:53:34 That is absolutely a fact.
935 00:53:36 Now he drives a Porsche.
936 00:53:39 And that's all because of AEY.
937 00:53:43 Do you have any questions?
938 00:53:45 Um, I have a question.
939 00:53:48 What does AEY stand for?
940 00:53:50 What do you mean? Like morally?
941 00:53:52 No, I mean what do the letters mean?
942 00:53:55 That's fucking...
943 00:53:57 What does IBM stand for? Nothing.
944 00:53:59 It just... It just sounds professional.
945 00:54:03 Uh, actually, IBM stands forInternational Business Machines.
946 00:54:11 What did you say?
947 00:54:13 IBM stands forInternational Business Machines.
948 00:54:18 Get the fuck out of here.
949 00:54:21 I'm serious.You're not going to work here.
950 00:54:24 Get the fuck out of my office,you fucking nerd!
951 00:54:29 Go!
952 00:54:30 And for the record,AEY doesn't stand for anything.
953 00:54:35 Fuck! What a dick.
954 00:54:45 Does anybody else have any questions?
955 00:54:55 Sleep. I got her.
956 00:55:11 All right. All right.
957 00:55:16 Hi.
958 00:55:20 I know.
959 00:55:23 I know. It's okay.
960 00:55:29 Okay.
961 00:55:43 What?
962 00:55:53 360,000 SVD sniper rifles.
963 00:55:57 1,084,000 GP-30 grenades.
964 00:56:01 45,000 SKO aviation rockets.
965 00:56:05 The Pentagon's arming the Afghansfor the next 30 years.
966 00:56:09 They're building a whole army.
967 00:56:12 Wait, that's got to be a typo.
968 00:56:14 It's not.
969 00:56:17 100 million rounds of AK-47 ammo?
970 00:56:21 Bro, these aren't crumbs.
971 00:56:24 This is the whole fucking pie.
972 00:56:35 Among defense contractors,
973 00:56:37 this would come to be knownas the Afghan deal.
974 00:56:40 It would be the biggest opportunity
975 00:56:42 AEY would ever see.
976 00:56:46 We had to go for it.
977 00:56:51 So, where do you goto arm an entire country?
978 00:57:00 Vegas X is wheremilitary and manufacturers
979 00:57:03 come together to unveilthe latest in warfare.
980 00:57:06 It's like Comic-Con with grenades.
981 00:57:12 Sure, most of these guysdidn't know who AEY was.
982 00:57:17 But we saw that as an advantage.
983 00:57:21 - You got your list?- Got it.
984 00:57:22 - You feel good?- Yeah, I feel pretty good.
985 00:57:25 You know, this is differentthan doing business on the phone.
986 00:57:27 When they look at us,they're going to see two kids.
987 00:57:29 So we have to show them our balls.
988 00:57:30 Got it.
989 00:57:31 We need to be fucking thugs,you understand?
990 00:57:33 Understood.
991 00:57:34 All right, good. Let's kill this shit.
992 00:57:42 But it was a complete disaster.
993 00:57:46 We quickly learned that
994 00:57:48 even if we could land the Afghan deal,
995 00:57:50 it would be a logistical nightmare.
996 00:57:53 Jerry, good to see you.
997 00:57:54 To source a deal of this magnitude
998 00:57:56 would mean piecing together
999 00:57:58 multiple vendorsfrom all around the world.
1000 00:58:01 Whoa, whoa.
1001 00:58:02 Get out of here.
1002 00:58:03 It would require dozens of shipping outfits
1003 00:58:05 and hundreds of permits.
1004 00:58:07 We need 100 million rounds.
1005 00:58:09 All that could be okayfor a major defense contractor.
1006 00:58:12 But not for us.
1007 00:58:16 Honestly, we were out of our league.
1008 00:58:44 Change $10,000.
1009 00:58:49 Any luck today?
1010 00:59:05 Efraim!
1011 00:59:10 What's up, bro?
1012 00:59:11 Where you been? Why aren't youanswering your phone?
1013 00:59:13 I'm with a prostitute. What's up?
1014 00:59:14 Okay, you need to get dressedand come with me right now.
1015 00:59:17 All right, uh, give me
1016 00:59:20 38 minutes.
1017 00:59:21 Efraim, Henry Girard is down at the bar,waiting for us.
1018 00:59:25 Get the fuck out of here.
1019 00:59:27 I'm dead serious.
1020 00:59:30 Shit.
1021 00:59:33 Okay.
1022 00:59:35 Henry Girard was a legendamong arms dealers.
1023 00:59:38 When they hung Saddam Husseinfor crimes against humanity
1024 00:59:41 it was said that Henry sold them the rope.
1025 00:59:44 Hey, Henry, sorry I'm late.
1026 00:59:45 This is my partnerI was telling you about.
1027 00:59:47 - Efraim Diveroli.- Nice to meet you.
1028 00:59:49 It's an absolute pleasure.
1029 00:59:51 Henry has a dinner in 10 minutes,
1030 00:59:52 but I wanted you to hear this firsthand.
1031 00:59:54 I showed him the list and he can help.
1032 00:59:57 Great. With which part?
1033 00:59:59 All of it.
1034 01:00:01 He can fill the whole order.
1035 01:00:03 - The whole order?- Mmm-hmm.
1036 01:00:05 Even the AK ammo?
1037 01:00:07 Not a problem.
1038 01:00:09 You do know it's100 million rounds, right?
1039 01:00:11 Henry has contacts in Albania.
1040 01:00:14 Albania?
1041 01:00:15 They spent decades preparingfor a Western invasion that never came.
1042 01:00:18 That country is one giant arsenal.
1043 01:00:20 It's all just sitting there.
1044 01:00:23 Tell him the best part.
1045 01:00:24 They're in the process of joining NATO,
1046 01:00:26 so they have to dispose of allof their Soviet era weapons.
1047 01:00:30 They are literally dismantling itand turning it into scrap.
1048 01:00:33 I can get most of the shitfor pennies on the dollar.
1049 01:00:36 Now, tell him the other best part.
1050 01:00:39 You're looking at the exclusive agentfor the whole fucking thing.
1051 01:00:43 This was the magic bullet.
1052 01:00:45 One supplier who couldfill the entire Afghan deal.
1053 01:00:50 This wouldn't just put us in contention.
1054 01:00:52 We might actually win this thing.
1055 01:00:57 Sorry, I have a question.
1056 01:00:59 Sure.
1057 01:01:00 With that kind of hookup
1058 01:01:02 why don't you just bidon the contract yourself?
1059 01:01:07 Full disclosure?
1060 01:01:12 I'm barred from doing any businesswith the U.S. government.
1061 01:01:14 I'm on a watch list.
1062 01:01:17 Like a terrorist watch list?
1063 01:01:18 Mmm-hmm.
1064 01:01:20 - Got it.- Wait, what?
1065 01:01:22 Okay, how much for the AK ammo?
1066 01:01:24 - 10 cents a round.- That's fucking amazing.
1067 01:01:26 And what about shipping?
1068 01:01:27 You can get Ilyushin 76through Russian pilots.
1069 01:01:29 80K per flight.
1070 01:01:30 I'm sorry, you're ona terrorist watch list?
1071 01:01:33 What the fuck!
1072 01:01:34 Do you work for Homeland Security?Relax, bro.
1073 01:01:36 You two should probably talk this over.
1074 01:01:38 We will. But we are very interested.
1075 01:01:41 Good. My flight leavestomorrow morning at 10:00.
1076 01:01:43 I can't spend more than 48 hoursin this dump.
1077 01:01:46 That's what I always say.Vegas is a two-day town.
1078 01:01:50 I was talking about America.
1079 01:01:57 We're talking exclusive accessto a stockpile
1080 01:02:01 of Soviet Bloc non-standardweapons and ammo.
1081 01:02:03 That's going to win this deal for us.
1082 01:02:05 He's on a terrorist watch list!
1083 01:02:07 Whatever. People end up on that listfor bringing scissors onto an airplane!
1084 01:02:10 That's not why he's on the list.
1085 01:02:13 Look, the Pentagon wants100 million rounds of AK-47 ammo
1086 01:02:17 in the middle of a worldwide shortage.
1087 01:02:20 Where do you thinkthey think that's going to come from?
1088 01:02:23 A bunch of shady motherfuckerslike that guy.
1089 01:02:27 This is the job.
1090 01:02:29 To do business with the people in places
1091 01:02:31 the U.S. governmentcan't do business with directly.
1092 01:02:35 It's as simple as that.
1093 01:02:38 Fuck!
1094 01:03:00 Hey, boys.
1095 01:03:01 So we discussed it,and we'd like to move forward.
1096 01:03:04 Fantastic. Congratulations.
1097 01:03:06 - But we have to see the merchandise.- Oh, of course.
1098 01:03:08 On site, in person.
1099 01:03:11 You guys ever been to Albania?
1100 01:03:13 Honestly, until last night
1101 01:03:15 I didn't even know it wasa real fucking country.
1102 01:03:17 Oh, it's a beautiful place.
1103 01:03:18 Come on in. I'll call my guyand we'll set it up.
1104 01:03:25 Albania is a lot of things.
1105 01:03:27 But a beautiful place is not one of them.
1106 01:03:31 It took us three separate flights
1107 01:03:32 and 22 hours just to get there.
1108 01:03:36 Henry's people sent a driver
1109 01:03:37 to pick us up at the airport
1110 01:03:39 and the guy would not stop talking.
1111 01:03:42 I fall over, she revive me.
1112 01:03:45 But none of that diminishedEfraim's enthusiasm.
1113 01:03:48 He really believedthis could be the answer.
1114 01:04:21 Welcome, AEY.
1115 01:04:23 I am Yili Pinari,
1116 01:04:24 head of Albania's largestmilitary export company.
1117 01:04:27 Efraim Diveroli. Good to see you.
1118 01:04:31 This is my business associate,David Packouz.
1119 01:04:34 - Glad to meet you.- How you doing?
1120 01:04:36 Uh...
1121 01:04:38 Thank you for the sign.
1122 01:04:39 Oh. It's for you.
1123 01:04:41 Yes, I know.I said thank you for the sign.
1124 01:04:46 So, show us what you got.
1125 01:04:54 What is this place?
1126 01:04:56 Storage for the Albanian army.
1127 01:05:00 We have 700 more like itacross the country.
1128 01:05:03 You have 700 warehouses like this?
1129 01:05:05 Not just warehouse.
1130 01:05:07 We use church, hospital, school.
1131 01:05:10 Albania is most armed countryin the world.
1132 01:05:12 Hey, that's cool. Congrats, bro.
1133 01:05:14 It was like a fucking museum in there.
1134 01:05:16 Most of this shit hadn't seen daylight
1135 01:05:18 since the Cold War.
1136 01:05:20 But that didn't matter to us.
1137 01:05:22 All we cared about was the AK ammo.
1138 01:05:24 It's okay. We have plentyof what you came for.
1139 01:05:30 All these containersare filled with your bullets.
1140 01:05:37 What do you mean,all the bullets are right here?
1141 01:05:40 126 million rounds.
1142 01:05:46 Fuck me.
1143 01:05:47 Yeah. Fuck us all.
1144 01:06:07 How old are these?
1145 01:06:08 30, maybe 40 years. AK-47 bullets
1146 01:06:12 can last forever if properly stored.
1147 01:06:15 Right. Well, how were these stored?
1148 01:06:17 Uh, who gives a fuckhow these were stored?
1149 01:06:18 All that matters is they fucking work.
1150 01:06:20 Do they work?
1151 01:06:25 You try.
1152 01:06:35 They fucking worked.
1153 01:06:39 The entire defense industrywas scrambling over this deal.
1154 01:06:42 And the key to it was sittingin 23 shipping containers
1155 01:06:45 in the back of a rusted out warehouseon the other side of the world.
1156 01:07:05 We got back with just enough time
1157 01:07:07 to submit our bidbefore the government's deadline.
1158 01:07:13 And then we waited.
1159 01:07:16 We waited five months.
1160 01:07:19 Pa.
1161 01:07:22 David!
1162 01:07:25 - Is that Efraim?- What?
1163 01:07:29 - Is it?- David!
1164 01:07:31 We fucking won!
1165 01:07:34 Holy shit. We won the Afghan deal.
1166 01:07:36 - What?- We won the Afghan deal!
1167 01:07:38 - We won?- We fucking won!
1168 01:07:40 Bro! Are you fucking kidding me?
1169 01:07:41 - We fucking won!- Yeah, motherfucker!
1170 01:07:46 Yeah! Yeah, motherfucker!
1171 01:07:55 Before we could begin,
1172 01:07:56 AEY still needed to be vettedby the government.
1173 01:08:00 It's a pain-in-the ass process
1174 01:08:01 involving three separate audits
1175 01:08:03 and an in-person interview.
1176 01:08:06 The audits were the biggest hurdle.
1177 01:08:08 I mean, we didn't evenhave a real bookkeeper.
1178 01:08:11 We didn't have real books.
1179 01:08:14 We had to fabricate AEY's accounting
1180 01:08:16 going back three years.
1181 01:08:18 Ledgers, bank statements,phony purchase orders,
1182 01:08:22 we forged it all.
1183 01:08:27 Two weeks later, we were in Rock Island,
1184 01:08:29 Illinois for our big meeting
1185 01:08:30 with procurement officersfrom the U.S. Military.
1186 01:08:37 We were pretty fucking nervous.
1187 01:08:39 So Efraim thought it'd be a good ideato get high in the parking lot.
1188 01:08:52 Hold up.
1189 01:08:56 Does it sound likewe're more than two people right now?
1190 01:09:00 Yeah.
1191 01:09:01 It was really strong shit.
1192 01:09:04 Okay.
1193 01:09:19 This is very impressive.
1194 01:09:21 Very impressive.
1195 01:09:24 Frankly, we were a tad concernedwith your performance history
1196 01:09:27 against a deal of this size.
1197 01:09:29 But after meeting you two face to face,
1198 01:09:30 we feel like we're in good handson this one.
1199 01:09:34 Well, we won't let you down,
1200 01:09:37 sirs.
1201 01:09:38 Not to mention,
1202 01:09:39 your bid was far too attractivefor us to pass up.
1203 01:09:43 Thank you. I mean, that's great to hearbecause we really worked hard on this.
1204 01:09:47 Sorry. Excuse me.
1205 01:09:50 One of you just said
1206 01:09:52 our bid was too attractive to pass up.
1207 01:09:54 What did you mean by that, exactly?
1208 01:09:56 He means you boys lowballedthe shit out of your competition.
1209 01:10:03 Yeah. Uh...
1210 01:10:05 By how much?
1211 01:10:06 Millions.
1212 01:10:12 Okay.
1213 01:10:15 Just for me. I...
1214 01:10:18 I'm curious, how many millions?
1215 01:10:21 Well, technically, we're not supposed todiscuss that with you,
1216 01:10:27 but what the hell.
1217 01:10:30 You guys came in $53 millionlower than the nearest competition.
1218 01:10:36 Fuck! Fuck!
1219 01:10:39 Motherfucker!
1220 01:10:41 $53 million.
1221 01:10:45 We're okay.
1222 01:10:48 Look at the bright side.
1223 01:10:50 For once, the American taxpayer
1224 01:10:52 is getting a good dealon a defense contract.
1225 01:10:54 Man, fuck the American taxpayer.
1226 01:11:11 Hello?
1227 01:11:16 Iz?
1228 01:11:18 Hey, Ella. Hi.
1229 01:11:22 How are you, sweetie?
1230 01:11:24 Hey. Do you knowwhere her blue sandals are?
1231 01:11:28 Oh, hey.
1232 01:11:29 Um, I'm not sure.
1233 01:11:32 But listen, can we talk for a sec?
1234 01:11:35 Mmm-hmm.
1235 01:11:37 I need to go back to Albaniafor a couple weeks.
1236 01:11:40 A month, tops.
1237 01:11:42 Sure. No problem.
1238 01:12:03 Hey, what's going on?
1239 01:12:06 Ella and I are going to staywith my mom for a while.
1240 01:12:09 What? What are you talking about?
1241 01:12:11 Iz, what happened?
1242 01:12:13 How come you didn't tell meyou went to Iraq?
1243 01:12:16 I was looking for the plumber's number
1244 01:12:17 on your computer and I saw the photos.
1245 01:12:21 I can explain.
1246 01:12:23 You said you never leftthe hotel room in Jordan.
1247 01:12:27 I know. Because I didn'twant to freak you out.
1248 01:12:31 Why is it every time I catch you in a lie
1249 01:12:33 you try to convince methat you lied for my benefit?
1250 01:12:37 At what point do youjust admit you're a liar?
1251 01:12:41 Iz, would you stop, please?
1252 01:12:43 We said we'd tell each other everything.
1253 01:12:47 - You promised!- I know! Okay, I fucked up.
1254 01:12:50 What else aren't you telling me?
1255 01:12:52 - Nothing.- No.
1256 01:12:53 Seriously.
1257 01:12:56 You know everything now.
1258 01:13:04 Okay. Aren't you going to ask mewhy I called the plumber?
1259 01:13:07 Yeah, sure. What happened?
1260 01:13:12 The pipe is leaking in the guest bathroom.
1261 01:13:21 I found this.
1262 01:13:24 Let me guess.You didn't want to freak me out?
1263 01:13:27 Okay, hold on.
1264 01:13:28 So I hid some money under the sink.
1265 01:13:30 What's the big deal?
1266 01:13:31 The big deal is you hid it from me!
1267 01:13:33 No, I didn't!
1268 01:13:35 Then who did you hide it from?
1269 01:13:41 I don't know. It was stupid. You're right.
1270 01:13:50 We're going to leavebefore you think of something else to say.
1271 01:13:54 Iz, I'm sorry.
1272 01:13:58 Iz!
1273 01:14:06 Oh, fuck.
1274 01:14:56 Hey, what's up, man?
1275 01:14:58 What's up?
1276 01:14:59 Just getting ready to leave.
1277 01:15:03 What is that?
1278 01:15:05 I just wanted to thank youfor agreeing to go on this trip.
1279 01:15:10 It's not lost on me,
1280 01:15:11 the sacrifice you're makingfor this company.
1281 01:15:14 And I really appreciate it.
1282 01:15:17 "To my partner, David.The world is yours."
1283 01:15:22 - It's from Scarface.- Of course, man. I remember.

1324 01:18:09 Hey, man, we got a problem.
1325 01:18:11 - Where you at?- I'm at Liv, bro.
1326 01:18:13 Trying to bang some Cuban chickwho's waiting for me at my table.
1327 01:18:16 Why, what do we got?
1328 01:18:17 Let me get this straight. I'm in Albaniaright now freezing my ass off.
1329 01:18:20 You're at Liv, trying to get laid?
1330 01:18:22 David, it's 1:00 a.m. here.
1331 01:18:23 I'm blowing off some steam.
1332 01:18:25 Yeah, 1:00 a.m. is when you'resupposed to be at the office
1333 01:18:27 because that's the middle of fucking dayin every country we do business with.
1334 01:18:30 Look, we got a problemwith the AK ammunition.
1335 01:18:33 - What kind of problem?- It's Chinese.
1336 01:18:35 Chinese, bro?What does that even mean, Chinese?
1337 01:18:38 It means it's from China.
1338 01:18:40 What are you talking about?I was there, I saw the ammo.
1339 01:18:43 We both did.
1340 01:18:45 Yeah, look, I don't know what to tell you.
1341 01:18:46 They fucked us. Okay? We got played.
1342 01:18:48 Hold on. How do you evenknow it's Chinese?
1343 01:18:50 There's Chinese writingon every fucking crate.
1344 01:18:53 Trust me, it's Chinese.
1345 01:19:04 Yeah.
1346 01:19:06 Henry, what the fuck!
1347 01:19:07 We've been trying to reach youfor two days!
1348 01:19:09 It's Efraim and David.
1349 01:19:10 We have a serious fucking problem.
1350 01:19:13 I'm listening.
1351 01:19:14 The AK ammunition, it's Chinese.
1352 01:19:16 What, you think the Afghanswho are getting
1353 01:19:18 shot up by the Taliban give a shitwhere their ammo comes from?
1354 01:19:22 No, but the Pentagon does.
1355 01:19:23 Henry, you know we can't use Chinese!
1356 01:19:25 America has an embargo against China.
1357 01:19:27 You had your boys show us the one crateof Albanian ammo in the entire country.
1358 01:19:31 I'm sorry, did anyone prevent youfrom inspecting the other crates?
1359 01:19:34 Did you even bother to askwhat the country of origin was?
1360 01:19:37 Who the fuck would ask that?
1361 01:19:39 Henry, I'm staring at 100 million rounds
1362 01:19:43 of illegal Chinese ammunitionthat you sold us.
1363 01:19:46 What are we supposed to do?
1364 01:19:47 Do your fucking job!
1365 01:19:51 The U.S. governmentwants to look the other way.
1366 01:19:53 Don't give them a reason not to.
1367 01:19:55 And while you're at it,learn the difference between
1368 01:19:57 "We have a problem"and "You have a problem."
1369 01:20:01 Fuck!
1370 01:20:23 We were fucked. The ammo was worthless
1371 01:20:25 and I was stuck in Albaniatrying to piece together new suppliers
1372 01:20:29 from all over Eastern Europe.
1373 01:20:54 Holy shit.
1374 01:20:56 What the fuck are you doing here, man?
1375 01:20:57 I have a big idea.
1376 01:20:59 How did you get in my room?
1377 01:21:01 They let me in.
1378 01:21:03 I'm a trustworthy guy.
1379 01:21:04 Not only did they let me in,they brought me room service.
1380 01:21:08 Anyway, I have a big fucking idea.
1381 01:21:11 Yeah? What's that?
1382 01:21:12 What if we repack?
1383 01:21:14 Repack what?
1384 01:21:15 The bullets!
1385 01:21:16 What if we repack them all?
1386 01:21:18 100 million rounds?
1387 01:21:20 David, it can be done.
1388 01:21:23 Think about it.We'll also save a fortune on shipping.
1389 01:21:27 We trade out all the big,heavy wooden crates
1390 01:21:29 for light cardboard boxes.
1391 01:21:31 Yeah, but it would still be Chinese ammo.
1392 01:21:33 Look at this towel. Okay?
1393 01:21:36 Turkish. Made in Turkey.
1394 01:21:40 Not anymore. Now it's an Albanian towel.
1395 01:21:44 It's only Chineseif the packaging says it's Chinese.
1396 01:21:50 Yeah. But I mean, that'salso fucking illegal, man.
1397 01:21:54 We have two options.
1398 01:21:56 We either repack this shit and send it off
1399 01:21:59 or we can walk awayfrom a $300 million-deal.
1400 01:22:03 What do you want to do?
1401 01:22:05 When you put it like thatthere's really only one option.
1402 01:22:11 Our driver Bashkimintroduced us to his friend
1403 01:22:13 who owned a boxing and storage companyout of Tirana.
1404 01:22:16 This is Enver. I grew up with him.
1405 01:22:19 Nice to meet you, Enver.
1406 01:22:20 You too. Bashkim told mea little about your situation.
1407 01:22:24 Yeah, look, to put it simply,we have a weight problem.
1408 01:22:27 We're shippinga large quantity of ammunition
1409 01:22:29 from Albania to Afghanistan.
1410 01:22:31 Right now, it's packed in heavy tins
1411 01:22:32 inside big wooden crates.
1412 01:22:34 And what we would like to do
1413 01:22:35 is to transfer those bulletsinto plastic bags
1414 01:22:37 and then put those in double-walled,
1415 01:22:39 corrugated fiberboard boxes.
1416 01:22:42 Do you know what those are?
1417 01:22:44 Yeah, of course. For what reason?
1418 01:22:46 We just told you.
1419 01:22:48 What the fuck is it with this country?
1420 01:22:50 The original packaging, it's too heavy.
1421 01:22:55 Too many crates. We need to streamline.
1422 01:22:58 Okay. How many crates?
1423 01:23:00 A lot. It's 100 millionrounds of ammunition.
1424 01:23:03 Understood. But how many actual crates?
1425 01:23:09 We have 68,520 crates.
1426 01:23:15 I've seen it.
1427 01:23:16 It's fucking crazy.
1428 01:23:43 Done.
1429 01:23:57 So 50 men, eight weeks.
1430 01:24:00 I can do it for $100,000.
1431 01:24:05 100,000 U.S. dollars?
1432 01:24:07 Yeah.
1433 01:24:09 - Give us a second.- Yeah. One second, please.
1434 01:24:13 Okay. I'm going to talk very seriously.
1435 01:24:16 It was hard not to laugh.
1436 01:24:18 I mean, not only was this guysaving the entire deal,
1437 01:24:21 but by repacking all the ammo
1438 01:24:23 we would increase our profit marginby almost $3 million.
1439 01:24:26 Where should we get dinner tonight?
1440 01:24:28 There's this place by the hotel.It's pretty good.
1441 01:24:30 Okay. All right, go ahead.
1442 01:24:33 Okay, deal.
1443 01:24:41 It was even better than we thought.
1444 01:24:43 We were trading heavy wooden cratesfor light cardboard boxes.
1445 01:24:46 Eight ounce tins for plastic bags.
1446 01:24:50 By repacking the ammo,
1447 01:24:52 we would lighten our overall loadby 180 tons.
1448 01:24:56 180 fucking tons!
1449 01:24:59 That meant fewer flightsusing lighter planes burning less fuel.
1450 01:25:04 Which all added up to more money for us.
1451 01:25:12 On December 8th, 2007,
1452 01:25:15 AEY delivered the first 5 million rounds
1453 01:25:17 to the Afghan army.
1454 01:25:21 It went off without a hitch.
1455 01:25:30 Come on, just say it once, sweetie.Come on.
1456 01:25:32 Say "dada." Say "dada."
1457 01:25:36 We really have to go, David.
1458 01:25:38 No, hey, five more minutes,please? Please?
1459 01:25:41 We're about to eat. My mom's waiting.
1460 01:25:45 Ella, wave goodbye to Daddy. Hmm.
1461 01:25:48 Bye-bye, Ella.
1462 01:25:50 Merry Christmas. I love you.
1463 01:25:54 Hey, can you give her to your momso that we can talk for a minute?
1464 01:25:57 I'm sorry, David.
1465 01:25:58 We'll call you in a couple days. Okay?
1466 01:26:03 Bye.
1467 01:26:25 Hey, this is David.
1468 01:26:26 Bro, you want to hearsomething totally fucked up?
1469 01:26:29 Merry Christmas, Efraim.
1470 01:26:31 It's Christmas?
1471 01:26:32 That's why nobody's here.
1472 01:26:33 I was about to fire the entire office.
1473 01:26:36 Anyway, when I was over there,
1474 01:26:38 I was talking to our boy, Bashkim.
1475 01:26:40 Did you know his uncle
1476 01:26:41 works at the Albanian defense ministry?
1477 01:26:44 No, I didn't know that.
1478 01:26:45 Well, he does.
1479 01:26:46 So I said, "You know what would beinteresting to me, Bashkim?
1480 01:26:49 "I'd be curious to know what Henryis paying the Albanians for the AK ammo."
1481 01:26:54 Efraim?
1482 01:26:55 Do you know what he found out?
1483 01:26:57 That motherfucker is payingtwo and a half cents a round.
1484 01:27:00 He's charging us a 400% markup!
1485 01:27:03 Yeah. So what? We do the same thing.
1486 01:27:05 Yeah, but this is our contract.
1487 01:27:06 And we almost lost it because of himand his Chinese fucking bullets.
1488 01:27:09 But we didn't lose it.
1489 01:27:10 That's not the point!
1490 01:27:12 I want to figure out a wayto cut this cocksucker out of the deal.
1491 01:27:14 Efraim, stop.
1492 01:27:16 No, listen to me.
1493 01:27:17 I'm serious, man.
1494 01:27:19 We're making money, okay?
1495 01:27:20 He's making money,the whole thing is fucking working.
1496 01:27:23 Don't mess with it.
1497 01:27:25 I don't give a fuck. He's ripping us off!
1498 01:27:28 Look, I'm serious, okay?
1499 01:27:30 I'm going to be on the next flightout of here if you pull that shit.
1500 01:27:33 Whoa. Bro, you don't have to threaten me.
1501 01:27:37 All right? I'm your partner.
1502 01:27:38 Yeah, it doesn't always feel like that.
1503 01:27:41 I found this deal. And I'm over here
1504 01:27:43 doing all the work and you're in Miamitrying to sabotage it.
1505 01:27:46 How am I sabotaging it?
1506 01:27:48 By trying to fuck over Henry,the way you fuck over everybody else.
1507 01:27:56 You're right. Henry's our partner.
1508 01:28:01 He's the reason we got this deal.
1509 01:28:05 I was just looking out for usand I took it too far.
1510 01:28:10 Don't sweat it, bro. I'll leave it alone.
1511 01:28:12 Thank you.
1512 01:28:14 We can't push our luckwith this shit, man.
1513 01:28:19 All right, I'll talk to you soon. Bye.
1514 01:28:32 Whoa. What the fuck? Hey.
1515 01:28:34 Fuck! Stop.
1516 01:29:18 Stop! I don't understand!
1517 01:29:30 Do you understand now?
1518 01:29:33 Yeah. Yes.
1519 01:29:36 Did you really thinkyou could cut me out of my own deal?
1520 01:29:42 Please.
1521 01:30:01 Fuck.
1522 01:30:04 Fuck.
1523 01:30:20 David, we need to talk.
1524 01:30:21 Now's not a good time.
1525 01:30:25 I have not been paid yet.
1526 01:30:27 What do you mean? Like for the month?
1527 01:30:29 Ever.
1528 01:30:30 You haven't been paid anything?
1529 01:30:32 Your partner doesn't return phone calls.
1530 01:30:35 My guys need to be paid.
1531 01:30:37 They are going to stop work.
1532 01:30:40 David, I know the real reason
1533 01:30:42 that you want ammunition repacked.
1534 01:30:49 Okay, look, Enver. Listen to me.
1535 01:30:50 I gotta fly to Miami right now.I'll be back in a week.
1536 01:30:53 But I promise you, the first thingthat I'm going do when I land
1537 01:30:55 is make sureyou get your money wired, okay?
1538 01:31:01 Okay.
1539 01:31:07 David.
1540 01:31:09 Airport, let's go.
1541 01:31:11 David.
1542 01:31:13 Look, I'm late for a flight.I'll be back next week.
1543 01:31:15 She said her husbanddidn't come home last night.
1544 01:31:19 Okay, what do you want me to do?
1545 01:31:25 She's very worried. It is not like him.
1546 01:31:28 Tell her I don't know her husband.
1547 01:31:30 Who's your husband?
1548 01:31:31 Bashkim.
1549 01:31:44 No one ever heard from Bashkim again.
1550 01:31:47 They never found a note,they never found a body.
1551 01:31:51 He just fell off the planet.
1552 01:31:57 I was done with Albania.
1553 01:32:00 I was never going back.
1554 01:32:12 Hi.
1555 01:32:14 Hey.
1556 01:32:16 The reason I went to Albaniawas to repackage Chinese ammunition
1557 01:32:20 so we could disguise itand sell it to the U.S. government.
1558 01:32:25 That sounds illegal.
1559 01:32:27 It is. But I'm done.
1560 01:32:30 I swear, no matter what happensfor the rest of my life
1561 01:32:33 I'm never going to lie to you again.
1562 01:32:41 Mmm-hmm.
1563 01:32:43 I love you so much, Iz.
1564 01:32:53 What happened to your nose?
1565 01:32:57 I was kidnapped by Albanian gangsters.
1566 01:32:59 - I think it's broken.- Oh, my God.
1567 01:33:05 I think I'm going to go backto being a massage therapist.
1568 01:33:08 Is that okay?
1569 01:33:12 Yes.
1570 01:33:16 It was always okay.
1571 01:33:41 Hey, you're back.
1572 01:33:54 Whoa!
1573 01:33:56 Bro, what are you doing back?What happened to your face?
1574 01:33:58 That's everything that's been deliveredon the Afghan deal.
1575 01:34:00 I want my cut. I'm out.
1576 01:34:03 What are you talking about?
1577 01:34:05 He put a fucking gun to my head, man.
1578 01:34:07 Who, Henry?
1579 01:34:09 You said that you were goingto leave it alone.
1580 01:34:12 Oh, fuck.
1581 01:34:15 I fucked up.
1582 01:34:19 I'm done, Efraim.
1583 01:34:20 Look, you don't have to go back.
1584 01:34:22 I hired this new guy, Ivan.
1585 01:34:24 - He speaks Albanian.- I'm done.
1586 01:34:32 What, do you thinkI just got 4 million bucks laying around?
1587 01:34:34 I've thought it through.
1588 01:34:36 I'll take 40 cents on the dollar.
1589 01:34:44 Yeah, I thought it through too.
1590 01:34:46 How about this?
1591 01:34:48 How about zero cents on the dollar?
1592 01:34:50 Let me remind you that we have a contract.
1593 01:34:53 Fuck your contract!
1594 01:34:55 If I asked you to build me a house,
1595 01:34:56 and you quit after building me half a house,you think I owe you half the money?
1596 01:34:59 Is this a fucking joke, David?
1597 01:35:02 You have two weeks.Otherwise, you'll hear from my lawyer.
1598 01:35:05 Who, Warren?
1599 01:35:07 Are you talking about Warren?He's my lawyer too.
1600 01:35:09 I introduced you to him.
1601 01:35:11 Fucking Warren.
1602 01:35:23 Fuck!
1603 01:35:49 AEY. How may I direct your call?
1604 01:36:15 We fight.
1605 01:36:18 Fight with our families,
1606 01:36:20 fight with our business associates.
1607 01:36:23 Sometimes we fight with our friends.
1608 01:36:25 If God were here,
1609 01:36:26 we'd probably fight with Him too.
1610 01:36:31 Efraim has a heavy heartover what's happened.
1611 01:36:37 No offense, Ralph, but I'm not sureyou've ever met the real Efraim.
1612 01:36:42 He's a complicated young man.
1613 01:36:45 But he just wants to sit down and talk.
1614 01:36:48 Find a fair solution.
1615 01:36:51 He's asked me to mediate.
1616 01:36:57 Let me help you, David.
1617 01:37:01 I just don't know if I'm ready yet.
1618 01:37:03 All right, here he is.
1619 01:37:14 Hey, bro.
1620 01:37:17 Good to see you.
1621 01:37:27 Sorry things have gotten so crazy.
1622 01:37:30 Yeah. Me too.
1623 01:37:31 You having anything, hon?
1624 01:37:33 I'll just have a coffee. Thanks.
1625 01:37:38 I've thought about it a lot.
1626 01:37:42 And I don't want you to walk awayfrom this empty-handed.
1627 01:37:45 Cool.
1628 01:37:47 So I had Warren draft upa severance agreement.
1629 01:37:49 And I think it's pretty fair.
1630 01:37:52 I'm prepared to pay you 50K per yearfor the next four years.
1631 01:37:58 200 grand?
1632 01:38:02 Is this a fucking joke, man?
1633 01:38:07 Is this what you meant by mediation?
1634 01:38:09 In all fairness, there was never
1635 01:38:10 a partnership agreement,no prior contract.
1636 01:38:14 Yeah. I have something betterthan a partnership agreement.
1637 01:38:17 I have proof.
1638 01:38:19 Before I left Albania, I took everything.
1639 01:38:21 What the fuck.
1640 01:38:23 All the documents we forged,photos of repacking.
1641 01:38:26 - David!- Repacking?
1642 01:38:27 - He didn't tell you?- David!
1643 01:38:28 Oh, yeah, we took that money you gave us,
1644 01:38:30 and we bought 100 million roundsof illegal Chinese ammunition,
1645 01:38:33 then we repackaged itand sold it to the U.S. Military.
1646 01:38:36 Yeah, and we made$8 million doing it, asshole.
1647 01:38:39 Careful, Efraim.
1648 01:38:40 We told Ralph we only made$3 million on that one.
1649 01:38:42 Wait, what now?
1650 01:38:43 He sends you fake accountingreports every month.
1651 01:38:45 - Oh, fuck off.- I make them on my laptop.
1652 01:38:47 Now you're just making shit up.
1653 01:38:48 Really? Because I kept everything,you dumb fuck!
1654 01:38:50 I even have copies of the bank statementsthat we photoshopped
1655 01:38:53 and sent to the government.
1656 01:38:55 Get the fuck out of here.
1657 01:38:58 I can bury you.
1658 01:39:04 Us.
1659 01:39:08 I think you meant to say,
1660 01:39:10 you can bury us.
1661 01:39:15 Because anything that implicates me,
1662 01:39:17 implicates you as well.
1663 01:39:19 - Efraim, wait.- No, no, no.
1664 01:39:20 I came here today preparedto pay you $200,000.
1665 01:39:25 Now I'm not even going to payfor breakfast.
1666 01:39:39 Oh. What's going on over here? Huh?
1667 01:39:42 Hello?
1668 01:39:43 May I speak with David Packouz?
1669 01:39:45 - Yeah, who's this?- Hi, David.
1670 01:39:47 This is C. J. Chiverswith The New York Times.
1671 01:39:50 I was wondering if you had a minuteto talk about AEY,
1672 01:39:53 and the alleged repackagingof Chinese ammunition.
1673 01:39:58 I don't know what you're talking about.
1674 01:40:00 Well, according to my source,there's an ongoing investigation
1675 01:40:02 at the State Department.
1676 01:40:03 And I was hopingto get some clarification...
1677 01:40:14 David, this sounds pretty serious.
1678 01:40:18 Yeah, I know.
1679 01:40:20 Maybe you should call my uncle.
1680 01:40:22 The lawyer.
1681 01:40:25 Oh, my God. Okay.
1682 01:40:27 That's a good idea.
1683 01:40:33 Hey, give me a minute.I'll meet you guys in the lobby.
1684 01:40:45 You just get a callfrom The New York Times?
1685 01:40:48 Yeah.
1686 01:40:54 Me too.
1687 01:41:01 You know, Scarface was on TV last night,
1688 01:41:04 and I was watching it and thinking aboutwhen we were little
1689 01:41:08 and we used to do the linesfrom the movie.
1690 01:41:13 You're my best friend, David.
1691 01:41:17 God, I really fucked this up, didn't I?
1692 01:41:25 I'm sorry, bro.
1693 01:41:32 Wow.
1694 01:41:34 Are you ever not acting, man?
1695 01:41:37 What does that mean?
1696 01:41:38 You just tell mewhat you think I want to hear,
1697 01:41:41 because The New York Times called,
1698 01:41:42 and you're freaking outthat I might say something.
1699 01:41:47 Just admit it.
1700 01:41:49 We were never best friends.
1701 01:41:51 You were just playingthe part of my best friend.
1702 01:41:56 Yeah.
1703 01:42:05 Scarface wasn't even on TV last night.
1704 01:42:12 You're such a piece of shit.
1705 01:42:14 - Fuck!- Fuck you.
1706 01:42:17 - Fuck.- Little bitch.
1707 01:42:23 Well, that saves us a trip.
1708 01:43:01 Out of all the illegal shit we did,
1709 01:43:04 all the lies we told the government,
1710 01:43:08 in the end, the thing that did us in?
1711 01:43:11 Yes, I'm trying to reachthe Department of Defense, please.
1712 01:43:16 Efraim never paid the box guy.
1713 01:43:20 To who do you report a crime?
1714 01:43:24 After Enver called the Pentagon,
1715 01:43:26 the State Department launcheda full-scale investigation,
1716 01:43:29 that went on for months.
1717 01:43:34 They busted Ralph at one of his shopsin the middle of a work day.
1718 01:43:40 He was horrifiedand couldn't make a deal fast enough.
1719 01:43:44 All that bullshit about him wantingto mediate a truce between Efraim and I...
1720 01:43:50 It was a setup.
1721 01:43:51 Oh, yeah, we took that money you gave us,
1722 01:43:53 and we bought 100 million roundsof illegal Chinese ammunition,
1723 01:43:56 then we repackaged itand sold it to the U.S. Military.
1724 01:43:59 They had us dead to rights.
1725 01:44:01 It was pathetic.
1726 01:44:03 While going through Efraim's computer,they even found a to-do list that said,
1727 01:44:08 "Repackage Chinese ammo. "
1728 01:44:11 The story tonightthat has Pentagon officials scrambling.
1729 01:44:13 How did two 20-something young menland a big Pentagon contract?
1730 01:44:18 Federal agents arrested both menlast week, charging them with fraud
1731 01:44:22 for selling outdated, defectiveChinese ammunition
1732 01:44:25 to the Pentagon.
1733 01:44:27 Efraim was chargedwith over 70 federal crimes
1734 01:44:30 and sentenced to four years in prison.
1735 01:44:34 I pled guilty and was sentencedto seven months house arrest.
1736 01:44:44 Congress called the Afghanistan contracta case study
1737 01:44:47 in all that is wrongwith the government's procurement process.
1738 01:44:58 In 2022, AEY will be eligible once againto bid on Federal contracts.
1739 01:45:16 How's it going?
1740 01:45:20 It's okay.
1741 01:45:23 If I wanted you dead,you'd already be dead.
1742 01:45:30 I guess it's going all right then.
1743 01:45:34 Come in.
1744 01:45:42 How's your baby?
1745 01:45:44 It's a girl, right?
1746 01:45:45 Yeah. She's good.
1747 01:45:48 I got three.
1748 01:45:51 All girls.
1749 01:45:53 They tell you it gets better.
1750 01:45:54 That's not true, it gets worse.
1751 01:45:57 That's why I like the arms business.
1752 01:45:59 No women.
1753 01:46:13 I want to apologize about Albania.
1754 01:46:19 I had bad information.
1755 01:46:25 So you stuffed me in the trunk of a carand shoved a gun in my face by mistake?
1756 01:46:31 Yeah.
1757 01:46:34 I'm not a bad man,but in certain situations,
1758 01:46:38 I have to ask myself,
1759 01:46:41 what would a bad man do?
1760 01:46:48 I appreciate you leaving my nameout of your testimony.
1761 01:46:52 I didn't really seea reason to include it.
1762 01:46:55 Yeah, but still.
1763 01:46:59 Can I ask you a question?
1764 01:47:01 Sure.
1765 01:47:05 When we met in Vegasat the blackjack table,
1766 01:47:09 was that a coincidence?
1767 01:47:12 What do you think?
1768 01:47:19 Can I ask you another question?
1769 01:47:23 My driver in Albania went missing.
1770 01:47:27 Do you know what happened to him?
1771 01:47:43 It's a piece of my end on the Afghan deal.
1772 01:47:51 It's for you.
1773 01:48:07 No more questions.
