The story so far
Everything you need before watchingEduardo gets home from California to a fight already in progress: his girlfriend Christy has seen that his Facebook status still says single. He tries a silk scarf. Then Mark calls. Eduardo froze the company account to get his attention. Mark detonates — one day of downtime would kill them — then pivots: Peter Thiel just put in half a million dollars, and they need their CFO on the next flight to San Francisco. Christy hears the whole victory lap, and dumps him.
