Leverage, Season 1

Sophie:
I don’t know, what is it, two, three hundred million in US currency? What’s it doing in Iraq?

Nate:
We sent it there.

Eliot:
What?

Nate:
Beginning of the Iraq War, my old company helped insure the largest currency transfer in history. Billions and billions in ones, fives and twenties, all cash. Sent to Iraq for reconstruction.

Eliot:
Bribes.

Nate:
As needed. Nine billion went missing.

Sophie:
Wait, billion? With a ‘b’? Nine billion dollars of US taxpayer money just disappeared.
