The story so far
Everything you need before watchingIn the deposition room, counsel walks Mark through a January letter: he waited six weeks to say the site was unfinished. Mark reads it aloud, then denies leading the Winklevoss twins on. Rain starts outside. The lawyer asks whether he has Mark's full attention. Under oath, Mark says no. He leaves the rest of his mind at Facebook, then asks if that answered a condescending question.
