The story so far
Everything you need before watchingDivya bursts in on the Winklevoss twins: Mark Zuckerberg has launched their idea as The Facebook. They conference their father's in-house lawyer, read Mark's Crimson quotes aloud, and argue over how gentlemen are supposed to fight. Cameron will send a cease-and-desist. He will not plant a story, and he will not sue. Divya wants a hammer. The scene is the film's first collision between Harvard manners and first-mover theft.
