What's really going on
The scene is the friendship's first real fault line. The two founders want different things from the same success: one asks how to turn a hit into a business — "It's time to monetize the thing" — while the other treats popularity itself as the valuable thing that ads would ruin. Then the legal threat arrives, and the argument becomes about honesty. Mark's claim that he did nothing wrong, "They came to me with an idea, I had a better one," is clever and self-serving at once, and his quiet decision not to show his partner the letter is the real break. From here, the movie is less about building a company than about who trusted whom.

Yes, have you ever heard so many different good things packed into one regular-sized sentence?A delighted reaction to being flirted with and told to look him up online, all in one plain sentence.
このシーンについての質問
What are Mark and Eduardo arguing about?
Whether to start making money from the site. Eduardo, thinking as the business side, wants revenue; Mark refuses advertising because he believes it would make the product uncool.
What is the cease-and-desist letter about?
The Winklevosses claim that Mark stole their idea for Harvard Connection and built Facebook from it. The letter warns of legal action and is the first sign of the lawsuits to come.
Why does it matter that Mark hid the letter?
Because Eduardo learns his partner kept a legal threat secret. The hiding, more than the idea dispute, damages the trust between them and points to the split later in the film.
What does a priceless asset mean here?
It means something so valuable it should not be traded for money. Mark uses the phrase for the site's coolness, arguing that its appeal matters more than early advertising dollars.
