Leverage, Season 1

Nate:
Yeah, you should have just paid us.

Dubenich:
I found the transmitter.

Nate:
Oh, you found the transmitter with the blinking light, yeah, we wanted you to figure some of it out. Then we just gave you what you were expecting.

Dubenich:
I am Victor Dubenich, I am going to beat this.

Nate:
Aren’t you forgetting about the bribe?

Dubenich:
Who cares? You can’t prove anything, I didn’t get any money.

Nate:
No, it doesn’t account for all of it. Sophie kept a little to buy a truly impressive number of shoes. See, if a company’s stock price falls ten, fifteen percent in one day and you see it coming, you sell short, you make a lot of money. If it’s going to fall thirty percent you can make shattering amounts of money. We didn’t need the FBI to show up and take you to jail, we just needed them to show up and take boxes out of your office, all day long in front of TV cameras, scaring your investors. You going to jail is just a bonus. I wouldn’t say anything about us to the Feds. Next time we won’t be so nice.
