[Vince walks out of the house after Gus Van Sant politely tells him he is not needed for his latest project. E follows him]
EEEric 'E' Murphy
Vince, Vince..
I don't wanna talk about this right now, E.
It'll gonna be alright. We just turned a leaf. Things didn't go as planned, and everything's gonna turn out fine.
VVince
[turns back to E] Really? You're sure? You're so fucking sure, how do you really know?
VVince
Just like you knew about this? Ari told you No, and you kept pushing. Not only did you embarrass yourself, you embarrassed me.
Embarrassed you? Gus Van Sant likes you.
VVince
Do you believe him? C'mon, he wouldn't let me audition. Who knows if he even watched the footage?
VVince
No! We said, we swore that this year, we would listen to Ari, and guess what? Again, you didn't.
What am I supposed to do? Do nothing and stand idly by in the hope that something magically appears?
VVince
Yeah, maybe, and since you've been my manager, everything that you've pushed for has brought me to this point.
You serious? I've been the one working to get you what you want when no one else cared.
VVince
Yeah, that maybe what I needed, someone who would look out for my career and not my personal interests.
VVince
Whatever it is you're doing, clearly it wasn't working. Two years ago, I was starring in movies, now people wouldn't let me audition?
One person wouldn't let you audition, you gotta stay positive Vince, you know that.
VVince
Are you serious? I've done nothing but stay positive. I've listened to everything that you wanted me to do, and now I've got a house full of people who can really see how a failure I've turned into.
VVince
No, when we started this, we said when we started this that it will all be about the business not the friendship. It's time for a change, E.
[realizes Vince's words] You're firing me?
VVince
'Cause this isn't working.
Whatever, I'm not gonna grovel. Go find someone better, 'Cause I can live with myself knowing I busted my ass and I gave everything I had to you.
VVince
I know you did E, but it wasn't enough.
[Vince is optimistic about his prospects of an award over Gatsby]
VVince
I'd just be happy to avoid a Razzie.
There's nothing wrong with a Razzie.
Johnny's gonna go for the hat-trick if he ever does another movie.
I only have one Razzie, asshole.
[At a break in the Five Towns shoot, E reveals to the gang something about him and Ashley]
You called Ashley "Sloan" and you weren't mid-fuck??
It's the worst. That's why I always stick with "Yeah, baby!"
I was thinking you would accidentally call out Vince's. [Turtle flips him off]
VVince
So how did you cover?
I told her she was hearing things.
I bet you she took that well.
VVince
Why didn't you chase after?
[Drama appears in the kitchen to see Turtle and Vince incensed over Aaron Cohen's bodyguards being too noisy. Turtle notices Drama's disfigured face]
What's with the face? [Vince is surprised]
They surprised me with a new scene when I got to the set last night. Battery acid sprays out of my car engine. Four hours of makeup...[voice slows to bitter murmur] for one line, compliments of Dan Coakley.
VVince
Why don't you take it off?
I gotta shoot again tonight. I can't bear another session in my makeup chair. [Splits bagel with bagel slicer he just bought]
Now you got two bad sides.
[agitated] Don't start with me Turtle, I am exhausted! [slaps hand hard on bagel slicer]
Oh you are? We got the Israeli Army waking us up all night, you can go home!
Baby bro is hungry, and you can go to Jamie's.
[Billy Walsh is commenting Vince on the script he wrote for Drama]
VVince
So, fix it. Change anything you want, I'll take nothing personally because this movie's not for me. It's for Johnny.
Amazing selflessness, I'm gonna use some of that for the yellow Lab's personality, if that's okay.
[Vince confronts Sophia over the Vanity Fair article she wrote about him]
VVince
I opened up to you, and you mocked me.
SSophia
I don't see it that way.
VVince
I have good relationships with women.
SSophia
I write what I see.
VVince
I don't know how, after everything else I shared with you, you could see that.
SSophia
I don't know why you're focusing on a tiny part of a six-page article.
VVince
Because it's not true. I have tons of respect for women, and not just those I want to sleep with.
SSophia
And you show it by stalking me to a restaurant?
VVince
I wouldn't call it stalking.
SSophia
What would you call it?
SSophia
What do you think that would accomplish?
VVince
Correct your opinion of me.
SSophia
Yes, the article is done, and I couldn't change it now if I wanted to, I'm sure even you are smart enough to know that.
[Turtle is disappointed that Avion made an IPO and his investors would not add more money for his Don Peppe's LA, and lets Vince know his frustration]
If not for my selfish desire to prove that I don't need you, if we didn't sell our stock I would have made four million dollars and what's worse? You would have made almost 15. [sits down]
VVince
Wow, that's unbelievable.
I'm sorry Vin. I'm so stupid.
VVince
[comforts him] You're not stupid. You're smart for getting me into this tequila thing, and I'm smart for not fucking listening to you.
VVince
I knew this thing was going to be big because you told me it was gonna be, and because I called Mark Cuban, who guaranteed it, so I kept my shares and I even bought yours.
Don't fuck with me right now, Vince. Please?
VVince
Cuban told me I'd regret it forever if I didn't, so I bought 'em for you. I mean, you gotta give me back the initial, but it seems like a good trade. Three hundred for almost four million?
VVince
Yeah, now that he doesn't need me, maybe he'd let me invest in his restaurant.
I, I don't know what to say.
Say thank you, you dumb fuck!
