The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAfter a fire at the Palo Alto house, Sean Parker walks in from across the street. At dinner he tells Mark the Victoria's Secret parable: the founder sold too early, then jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge. Sean wants Mark to stay CEO, keep venture capitalists from taking over, and pull Eduardo back from a New York internship. He offers to live with the team. Watch a seduction dressed as mentorship: someone else's failure rewritten as your ambition.
