00:00:43,576 --> 00:00:45,445
[narrator] Ladies and gentlemen,

2
00:00:45,545 --> 00:00:50,350
you've already made the incredibly smart
decision to skip the casinos,

3
00:00:50,417 --> 00:00:52,719
where the odds are stacked against you,

4
00:00:52,819 --> 00:00:55,522
and come to the place
where you can't lose.

5
00:00:55,588 --> 00:01:00,126
Technology is the future,
and video games are leading the charge.

6
00:01:00,226 --> 00:01:05,732
So, step right up and be the first
to experience the world's next big hit.

7
00:01:05,832 --> 00:01:09,235
Come try GO, Asia's favorite game.

8
00:01:09,302 --> 00:01:12,105
Rights available everywhere except Japan.

9
00:01:12,872 --> 00:01:14,174
How are you, sir?

10
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,643
GO, GO, GO. Come on.
Wanna play? It's like chess.

11
00:01:16,743 --> 00:01:18,645
Except infinitely harder.

12
00:01:18,745 --> 00:01:19,913
[clicks tongue]

13
00:01:20,130 --> 00:01:21,748
[Henk] GO didn't go as planned.

14
00:01:22,282 --> 00:01:24,384
I couldn't even keep my salesgirl
interested.

15
00:01:24,451 --> 00:01:28,655
And I know how many excuses
bank managers hear every day.

16
00:01:28,755 --> 00:01:31,658
But this is not an excuse.
This is an opportunity.

17
00:01:32,392 --> 00:01:37,300
In fact, my little setback may have been
the best thing to ever happen to us.

18
00:01:37,970 --> 00:01:38,131
-[chattering]
-Yeah.

19
00:01:38,231 --> 00:01:39,232
-[Henk] Tracy.
-Yeah.

20
00:01:39,299 --> 00:01:41,735
-[Tracy chuckles]
-Tracy. What are you doing?

21
00:01:41,801 --> 00:01:43,937
How's it going?
I just invited this young lady over

22
00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:46,406
to see how our new game
fares with the female audience.

23
00:01:46,473 --> 00:01:48,742
-[Tracy chuckles]
-Uh-huh. Sure.

24
00:01:48,808 --> 00:01:51,811
Come on, Tracy. I'm paying you
to sell my game, not play other people's.

25
00:01:51,911 --> 00:01:54,347
Relax, Henk. This game is swell.

26
00:01:54,447 --> 00:01:56,516
-What's it called?
-Tetris.

27
00:01:57,484 --> 00:01:58,618
Tetris.

28
00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:00,120
I don't get it.

29
00:02:00,220 --> 00:02:03,823
It's a combination of tetra,
Greek for "four"--

30
00:02:04,591 --> 00:02:08,128
all the game's pieces
are variants of four-- and tennis.

31
00:02:08,228 --> 00:02:09,529
-Tennis?
-Tennis.

32
00:02:09,629 --> 00:02:12,932
Yeah, supposedly, the Russian inventor,
he, um-- he likes tennis.

33
00:02:12,999 --> 00:02:16,469
-[video game beeps]
-Here, Henk. Try it.

00:02:18,104 --> 00:02:19,673

[beeping continues]

37
00:02:35,789 --> 00:02:37,657
Was this coded in Pascal, or C?

38
00:02:37,724 --> 00:02:39,693
[chuckles] That's proprietary.

39
00:02:39,793 --> 00:02:40,794
You like it?

40
00:02:40,860 --> 00:02:43,960
It was the most beautiful thing
I'd ever seen, Eddie.

41
00:02:43,163 --> 00:02:44,497
Heard that line before.

42
00:02:44,564 --> 00:02:48,101
No. It's nothing like GO.
It's in a completely different league.

43
00:02:48,168 --> 00:02:49,269
Heard that line before.

44
00:02:49,336 --> 00:02:51,271
Okay, fine. But, Eddie,

45
00:02:52,472 --> 00:02:56,376
I played Tetris for five minutes, yeah.

46
00:02:58,745 --> 00:03:00,947
I still see falling blocks in my dreams.

47
00:03:02,549 --> 00:03:05,352
This game isn't just addictive.

48
00:03:05,418 --> 00:03:07,200
It stays with you.

49
00:03:07,954 --> 00:03:11,691
It's poetry. Art and math
all working in magical synchronicity.

50
00:03:11,758 --> 00:03:12,759
It's…

51
00:03:15,128 --> 00:03:16,396
It's the perfect game.

52
00:03:17,564 --> 00:03:20,734
Why are you telling me this?

53
00:03:20,834 --> 00:03:22,569
Do you have the video game rights?

54
00:03:22,669 --> 00:03:26,873
Mirrorsoft control all rights
on all platforms, worldwide.

55
00:03:26,973 --> 00:03:28,708
Is Japan available?

56
00:03:32,178 --> 00:03:33,179

[video game beeps]

60
00:03:38,284 --> 00:03:39,386
Is this a joke?

61
00:03:40,453 --> 00:03:45,250
You took the money you owed this bank
for your failed video game…

62
00:03:45,125 --> 00:03:47,293
[video game beeps, whooshes]

63
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,729
-…to buy yet another video game?
-Correct.

64
00:03:49,829 --> 00:03:52,799
But, Eddie, this is different.

65
00:03:53,533 --> 00:03:55,201
Tetris is already a hit.

66
00:03:55,301 --> 00:03:56,936
-Where?
-Russia.

67
00:03:57,300 --> 00:03:58,271
[video game whooshes, thuds]

68
00:03:58,338 --> 00:04:02,509
[Eddie] Henk, there is
no video games business in Russia.

69
00:04:02,575 --> 00:04:03,810
[Henk] I know.

70
00:04:03,877 --> 00:04:06,513
Please, let me finish.

71
00:04:08,815 --> 00:04:09,816
[video game chimes]

72
00:04:09,883 --> 00:04:14,287
[Henk] It all began with a guy named
Alexey Leonidovich Pajitnov,

73
00:04:14,354 --> 00:04:15,922
four years ago.

74
00:04:18,580 --> 00:04:20,727
By day, he worked as a programmer
for the government

75
00:04:20,827 --> 00:04:22,696
at the Soviet Computer Science Center.

76
00:04:22,762 --> 00:04:24,364
[thunder rumbles]

77
00:04:24,464 --> 00:04:28,702
[Henk] But by night,
he invented games for fun.

78
00:04:29,302 --> 00:04:31,171
[electronic whirring]

79
00:04:38,678 --> 00:04:39,746
-[video game beeps]
-[gasps]

80
00:04:39,846 --> 00:04:45,180
[Henk] His computer, a Stone Age, Soviet
piece of crap called an Electronika 60,

81
00:04:45,850 --> 00:04:47,387
didn't even have a graphics card.

82
00:04:47,487 --> 00:04:51,910
His falling blocks
were parentheses pushed together.

83
00:04:51,191 --> 00:04:53,360
-[video game beeping]
-[typing]

84
00:04:53,426 --> 00:04:57,964
[Henk] Alexey and a couple of buddies
from work made the game IBM-compatible.

85
00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,650
[cheering]

86
00:04:59,165 --> 00:05:01,340
[Henk] Which meant color graphics,

87
00:05:01,101 --> 00:05:05,805
8-bit music and floppy disks
that people copied and shared for free.

88
00:05:05,905 --> 00:05:08,341
It spread like wildfire.

89
00:05:08,408 --> 00:05:09,943
[video game beeps]

90
00:05:10,430 --> 00:05:14,881
But this is the Soviet Union, remember?

91
00:05:16,383 --> 00:05:17,751
Nothing gets out easily.

92
00:05:18,518 --> 00:05:21,388
It would take an entrepreneur
to actually go there and monetize it.

93
00:05:21,955 --> 00:05:22,956
Who?

94
00:05:23,723 --> 00:05:24,724
You?

95
00:05:24,791 --> 00:05:26,559
[chuckles] Jesus, no.

96
00:05:26,626 --> 00:05:27,961
I'm not that crazy.

97
00:05:28,610 --> 00:05:29,896
That was Robert Stein.

Welcome back to Budapest Mr Stein.

103
00:05:39,906 --> 00:05:42,108
[Henk, in English]
A one-man band based in London,

104
00:05:42,208 --> 00:05:45,478
he would travel to eastern Europe
looking for licensed games cheaply

105
00:05:45,578 --> 00:05:48,748
and then resell them
for a profit to the West.

faxing us, wasting our paper.

What does it say?

115
00:06:18,845 --> 00:06:20,947
He wants to license my game.

116
00:06:22,515 --> 00:06:23,683
Am I allowed to do that?

117
00:06:25,685 --> 00:06:28,540
We better ask the bosses at ELORG.

118
00:06:29,289 --> 00:06:31,157
[boss] Yes we can. Send the fax.

us bankers actually approve of.

My old mate Mikhail Gorbachev
will be proud.

Mr. Rogers, you're trespassing.

Mr. Yamauchi is out of town. So--

That's not true because I saw him
this morning, and his car's still outside.

00:09:38,778 --> 00:09:40,460
Whoo!

178
00:09:40,146 --> 00:09:42,480
Five hundred grand?

179
00:09:42,148 --> 00:09:44,784
Henk, let me get you that drink.

180
00:09:45,885 --> 00:09:47,320
I told them no.

181
00:09:49,322 --> 00:09:50,557
You did what?

182
00:09:51,558 --> 00:09:52,892
Are you out of your ****ing mind?

183
00:09:52,992 --> 00:09:55,395
I got a bigger vision, Eddie.

184
00:09:56,496 --> 00:09:57,997
That is why I'm here.

185
00:10:00,734 --> 00:10:03,603
I'll publish it
and cover all up-front costs.

186
00:10:03,703 --> 00:10:05,705
[speaking Japanese]

187
00:10:06,339 --> 00:10:08,800
[in English]
We publish our games in-house.

188
00:10:08,740 --> 00:10:09,909
We don't use outside partners.

189
00:10:10,100 --> 00:10:14,714
-You don't do it often, true.
-[assistant translating in Japanese]

190
00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:17,617
-But you do make exceptions.
-[translating continues]

191
00:10:18,251 --> 00:10:23,623
Because you know as well as I do,
partners are what make us great.

[translating continues]

193
00:10:25,725 --> 00:10:27,827
That's why Mario has Luigi.

[video game beeps, boings]

195
00:10:29,929 --> 00:10:31,398
[victory tune plays]

196
00:10:31,464 --> 00:10:33,233
That's why Zelda has Link.

197
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:35,602
[video game chiming]

198
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:43,430
That's why Mike Tyson has
whoever he's punching out in Punch-Out!!

200

[translating continues]

201
00:10:46,379 --> 00:10:47,547
[chuckles]

202
00:10:47,614 --> 00:10:48,915
[mouthing words] Yeah.

203
00:10:49,150 --> 00:10:53,386
[speaking Japanese]

204
00:10:54,287 --> 00:10:57,900
[assistant, in English]
We want you to make 200,000 cartridges.

205
00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:58,491
You want two million dollars?

206
00:10:58,591 --> 00:10:59,626
No.

207
00:11:00,226 --> 00:11:02,629
[sighs] Had me worried for a bit.

208
00:11:02,729 --> 00:11:04,964
-I need a check for three million dollars.
-[chokes]

209
00:11:06,666 --> 00:11:09,690
That's the punch line?
You want a check from me?

210
00:11:10,337 --> 00:11:12,380
And how did you get to three million?

211
00:11:12,105 --> 00:11:16,476
Because I'll need two million
for Nintendo cartridges

212
00:11:16,576 --> 00:11:18,611
and one million to make arcade machines.

213
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:20,947
I have Tetris for arcade too, remember?

214
00:11:21,470 --> 00:11:22,480
[video game beeps]

215
00:11:22,115 --> 00:11:24,417
Arcade is a cash business
and the money comes in fast,

216
00:11:24,484 --> 00:11:26,486
which is great for both of us.

217
00:11:29,222 --> 00:11:31,758
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,
Eddie.

218
00:11:33,930 --> 00:11:34,994
Nintendo is letting me become a publisher.

219
00:11:35,895 --> 00:11:38,898
Nintendo. It's a license to print money.

220
00:11:42,635 --> 00:11:44,838
-You feel that strongly about it?
-Yeah! Clearly.

221
00:11:44,938 --> 00:11:46,706
-Then I'm upping your interest rates.
-Fine.

222
00:11:46,806 --> 00:11:48,808
-And I want your house as collateral.
-Fine!

223
00:11:48,908 --> 00:11:50,777
If you miss one payment,
that house is ours.

224
00:11:51,611 --> 00:11:52,812
Fine.

225
00:11:54,247 --> 00:11:56,783
You sure you don't have to talk
to your wife about this first?

226
00:11:58,551 --> 00:12:02,220
Akemi is the chief financial officer
of our company.

227
00:12:03,890 --> 00:12:04,391
She's all in.

228
00:12:04,958 --> 00:12:07,293
[video game chirping]

229
00:12:10,397 --> 00:12:12,399
[Akemi] This was not
what you promised, Henk.

230
00:12:12,499 --> 00:12:16,202
I-- I know, but you know
how unimaginative these bankers are.

231
00:12:17,971 --> 00:12:20,707
Pioneers have to bet the house to win.

232
00:12:20,807 --> 00:12:22,175
But not literally.

233
00:12:23,810 --> 00:12:24,811
Listen.

234
00:12:24,878 --> 00:12:26,379
[controller clicking]

235
00:12:30,383 --> 00:12:35,288
Have you ever heard our apartment
this quiet before?

236
00:12:43,697 --> 00:12:44,698
Maya?

237
00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:48,201
-Hmm?
-[Henk] What do you think?

238
00:12:48,935 --> 00:12:51,471
[in Japanese]
It's BRILLIANT, can we keep it?

239
00:12:53,707 --> 00:12:55,542
[in English] This is gonna work.

240
00:12:55,608 --> 00:12:56,609
I promise.

241
00:12:59,245 --> 00:13:01,181
Is that a promise you can keep?

242
00:13:02,582 --> 00:13:06,386
If we do this, we're in control.

243
00:13:07,187 --> 00:13:08,188
So, yeah…

244
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:12,158
it is.

245
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:23,870

247
00:13:30,430 --> 00:13:30,944
[in Japanese] Everyone…

248
00:13:35,810 --> 00:13:37,784
We're big failures now!

249
00:13:37,884 --> 00:13:39,953

We're big PUBLISHERS now!

Low to high.

257
00:14:02,142 --> 00:14:04,544
Set your feet. Low to high.

258
00:14:04,644 --> 00:14:06,146
[person] Tennis in the winter.

259
00:14:06,846 --> 00:14:07,681
Very impressive.

Valentin Trifonov

261
00:14:12,552 --> 00:14:14,988
Central Committee. Communist Party.

262
00:14:18,291 --> 00:14:20,660
I just wanted to meet the man responsible…

263
00:14:20,994 --> 00:14:22,662
for almost destroying the Soviet Union.

264
00:14:24,631 --> 00:14:25,699
Excuse me?

265
00:14:25,999 --> 00:14:27,400
Your game.

266
00:14:27,434 --> 00:14:30,670
It was being played by government workers
across the Union for hours a day.

267
00:14:31,404 --> 00:14:33,273
They were getting nothing done.

268
00:14:33,707 --> 00:14:37,777
We had to create a program
to block it from all PCs.

269
00:14:41,181 --> 00:14:44,451
I'm told you licensed your game
to the West.

270
00:14:45,118 --> 00:14:47,887
Any profits yet?

271
00:14:49,589 --> 00:14:50,590
Mm-hmm.

272
00:14:51,124 --> 00:14:56,296
I can't imagine how a game that is so
popular here makes no money abroad.

273
00:14:58,898 --> 00:15:00,333
Someone is cheating.

274
00:15:02,736 --> 00:15:04,337
Dad can we keep playing?

275
00:15:04,504 --> 00:15:05,605
Wait, wait.

276
00:15:07,700 --> 00:15:08,800
[chuckles]

277
00:15:08,740 --> 00:15:10,977
I'm sorry to interrupt.

278
00:15:11,110 --> 00:15:12,379
Again, congratulations.

279
00:15:12,445 --> 00:15:13,880
You deserve it.

280
00:15:22,455 --> 00:15:24,457
[line ringing]

281
00:15:27,527 --> 00:15:28,695

282
00:15:28,795 --> 00:15:31,531
-[in English] Bullet-Proof, Henk speaking.
-[Kevin] Yes, hello, Mr. Rogers?

283
00:15:31,631 --> 00:15:34,340
Kevin Maxwell, CEO of Mirrorsoft.

284
00:15:34,901 --> 00:15:37,237
Oh, hi, Kevin.

285
00:15:38,872 --> 00:15:41,574
I-- It's Mr. Maxwell to you, sir.

286
00:15:41,675 --> 00:15:44,210
I'm calling because I'm told
you bought PC, video game,

287
00:15:44,277 --> 00:15:47,130
and arcade rights
for Tetris in Japan, yes?

288
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:48,114
That's right.

289
00:15:48,214 --> 00:15:51,184
Well, it turns out, we already licensed
arcade to SEGA in Japan.

290
00:15:51,251 --> 00:15:53,286
Um, what? When?

291
00:15:53,386 --> 00:15:56,560
-I-- I did a deal with your guy in Vegas.
-Uh… [scoffs]

292
00:15:56,122 --> 00:15:58,358
…my job isn't to meddle in specifics,
Mr. Rogers.

293
00:15:58,425 --> 00:16:00,927
But I paid for arcade.
We signed a contract.

294
00:16:01,270 --> 00:16:04,300
No, no, no, no. You signed your end,
I've yet to sign mine.

295
00:16:04,731 --> 00:16:06,866
-Hence the call.
-What the ****, Kevin?

296
00:16:06,933 --> 00:16:08,535
No, it's Mr. Maxwell.

297
00:16:08,601 --> 00:16:10,236
Uh, what the ****, Mr. Maxwell?

298
00:16:10,303 --> 00:16:11,938
You're gonna ****ing bankrupt me.

299
00:16:12,380 --> 00:16:14,374
Look, do you want PC and video game
or not?

300
00:16:15,975 --> 00:16:17,510
Yeah. [chuckles]

301
00:16:18,278 --> 00:16:19,512
That's what I thought.

[line clicks, disconnects]

303
00:16:26,886 --> 00:16:28,521
We just lost arcade rights.

304

305
00:16:34,561 --> 00:16:36,396

306
00:16:36,730 --> 00:16:38,131
Everyone, it's going to be fine.

307
00:16:38,598 --> 00:16:42,680
We still have video game rights.

308
00:16:42,569 --> 00:16:46,106
Henk has a very important meeting
with Nintendo. We'll figure it out.

309
00:16:46,539 --> 00:16:47,340
OK

-Henk Goddamn Rogers.

353
00:19:09,416 --> 00:19:12,752
Welcome to Seattle. Howard Lincoln,
senior VP, chief legal counsel.

354
00:19:12,852 --> 00:19:16,222
Your cowboy reputation precedes you.

355
00:19:16,289 --> 00:19:18,391
Here. Sign this.

356
00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:21,327
An NDA? Why?

357
00:19:21,428 --> 00:19:25,980
Because only ten other people in the world
have seen what you're about to see,

358
00:19:25,198 --> 00:19:28,234
and, to be honest, we don't trust you.

359
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:44,617
[Henk] 8-bit graphics?

360
00:19:44,684 --> 00:19:49,656
Yes, and a brand-new
Sharp LR35902 core at 4.19 mega-hertz

361
00:19:49,756 --> 00:19:51,791
with eight kilobytes internal RAM.

362
00:19:53,226 --> 00:19:54,694
[gasp] Impressive.

363
00:19:56,629 --> 00:19:57,630
No color screen?

364
00:19:57,697 --> 00:20:00,600
Color, you'd need eight batteries
instead of four. It's too expensive.

365
00:20:01,167 --> 00:20:05,538
This gives you 30 hours of game play,
all for $89.

366
00:20:05,638 --> 00:20:06,706
[chuckles]

367
00:20:08,740 --> 00:20:09,175
What's it called?

368
00:20:11,277 --> 00:20:12,779
It's called the Game Boy.

369
00:20:15,248 --> 00:20:16,683
Go ahead, try it.

370
00:20:22,956 --> 00:20:23,957
[sighs]

371
00:20:29,496 --> 00:20:31,197
[beeping]

372
00:20:31,297 --> 00:20:32,332
[chuckles]

373
00:20:33,967 --> 00:20:37,270
[beeping continues]

374
00:20:37,337 --> 00:20:38,438
[chuckles]

375
00:20:39,205 --> 00:20:40,473
We're launching in June.

376
00:20:40,540 --> 00:20:43,476
And we want publishers like you
to be on the lookout for new games.

377
00:20:43,543 --> 00:20:45,478
So, you'll package it with Mario?

378
00:20:45,545 --> 00:20:47,380
Yes, it's our best brand.

379
00:20:49,649 --> 00:20:52,352
-This game is programmed in C, yeah?
-Mm-hmm.

380
00:20:52,919 --> 00:20:54,387
How many pixels?

381
00:20:54,487 --> 00:20:57,557
160 by 144. Why?

382
00:21:02,696 --> 00:21:04,497
[typing]

383
00:21:08,335 --> 00:21:09,569
[beeps]

384
00:21:12,172 --> 00:21:15,141
It's not perfect, but you'll get the idea.

385
00:21:21,414 --> 00:21:22,882
[video game beeping]

386
00:21:24,150 --> 00:21:25,385
[chuckles]

387
00:21:25,485 --> 00:21:29,890
Gentlemen, if you wanna sell a couple
hundred thousand Game Boys to little kids,

388
00:21:30,490 --> 00:21:31,958
package them with Mario.

389
00:21:32,726 --> 00:21:38,231
But if you wanna sell millions
of Game Boys to absolutely everyone,

390
00:21:38,331 --> 00:21:40,533
young and old, around the world,

391
00:21:42,335 --> 00:21:43,970
package them with Tetris.

392
00:21:50,443 --> 00:21:51,611
Can you get us the rights?

393
00:21:53,213 --> 00:21:54,414
[airplane whooshing]

394
00:21:57,884 --> 00:21:59,850
[tires screech]

395
00:22:03,757 --> 00:22:05,910
[chattering]

396
00:22:07,527 --> 00:22:08,561
Hi.

397
00:22:08,628 --> 00:22:11,664
My name's Henk Rogers.
I'm here to see Kevin Maxwell.

398
00:22:11,765 --> 00:22:13,199
Do you have an appointment, sir?

399
00:22:13,266 --> 00:22:15,402
Nope. It's a surprise.

400
00:22:15,468 --> 00:22:17,604
-I'm doing my best.
-No, do not say that.

401
00:22:17,671 --> 00:22:18,805
No, you're not doing your best.

402
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:21,408
No, it's--
In fact, on a scale from one to best,

403
00:22:21,474 --> 00:22:23,943
you're doing less than zero,
which is **** all!

404
00:22:24,544 --> 00:22:26,120
The Soviets are not stupid.

405
00:22:26,112 --> 00:22:28,314
They know that Tetris sells.

406
00:22:28,415 --> 00:22:31,484
But they-- they're refusing
to engage with me on arcade rights

407
00:22:31,584 --> 00:22:35,622
until I pay them for the royalties
I owe them on the computer games.

408
00:22:35,689 --> 00:22:39,325
-And I can't pay them until you pay me.
-[knocks]

409
00:22:39,426 --> 00:22:42,796
-Henk Rogers to see Kevin Maxwell.
-What the bloody hell is he doing here?

410
00:22:42,862 --> 00:22:44,964
-Bring him in.
-Why?

411
00:22:45,498 --> 00:22:47,434
-Well, I should go.
-Sit down.

412
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:51,370
We are a united front. Understood?

413
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:56,109
Mr. Rogers, what a pleasant surprise.

414
00:22:56,176 --> 00:22:58,244
Robert Maxwell,
chairman of the Mirror Group.

415
00:22:59,120 --> 00:23:00,714
Wow, hi.

416
00:23:01,247 --> 00:23:03,616
-Uh, if I'm interrupting, I can--
-Not all all.

417
00:23:03,683 --> 00:23:06,190
We were just talking Tetris actually.

418
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,220
This is Robert Stein
of Andromeda Software, and my son--

419
00:23:09,122 --> 00:23:11,725
I can introduce myself, Father. Thank you.

420
00:23:11,825 --> 00:23:12,959
Kevin Maxwell.

421
00:23:13,827 --> 00:23:15,280
CEO of Mirrorsoft.

422
00:23:15,628 --> 00:23:16,830
Mmm, I know. We met.

423
00:23:18,310 --> 00:23:20,800
On the phone.
You sold my arcade rights to SEGA.

424
00:23:21,368 --> 00:23:23,536
Well, it seems
everything's sorted itself out, yes?

425
00:23:24,637 --> 00:23:29,843
[smacks lips] Before I forget,
this is for the Soviets, per my contract.

426
00:23:29,909 --> 00:23:32,846
It's a game-play tape of Japanese Tetris.

427
00:23:33,346 --> 00:23:38,785
Though we very much, uh, appreciate your,
um, personal delivery, Mr. Rogers,

428
00:23:38,852 --> 00:23:41,621
but you could've mailed it.
You could've saved yourself the trip.

429
00:23:41,688 --> 00:23:46,393
Uh, yes, but then I wouldn't be able
to talk to you about handheld Tetris.

430
00:23:46,493 --> 00:23:47,794
Handheld?

431
00:23:48,395 --> 00:23:49,529
[Henk] Mmm.

432
00:23:50,163 --> 00:23:53,660
What I couldn't figure out
is who controls the rights.

433
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,101
You?

434
00:23:56,670 --> 00:23:57,871
Without a doubt.

435
00:23:59,339 --> 00:24:00,573
Yes.

436
00:24:00,674 --> 00:24:05,111
Uh, Mr. Stein controls all the exclusive
worldwide licensing rights.

437
00:24:05,211 --> 00:24:10,830
That's, uh, arcade, video game,
computer, and the handheld.

438
00:24:10,183 --> 00:24:13,486
-We license everything through him.
-Fantastic.

439
00:24:14,387 --> 00:24:18,758
Then I would like to buy
your worldwide handheld rights. Today.

440
00:24:18,858 --> 00:24:21,428
Mr. Rogers,
Nintendo doesn't have a handheld device.

441
00:24:21,528 --> 00:24:23,496
Why would they be trying
to buy into a market--

442
00:24:23,563 --> 00:24:24,764
I can't comment on that,

443
00:24:24,864 --> 00:24:28,268
but I am willing to make
a very generous offer on their behalf.

444
00:24:28,368 --> 00:24:30,370
We'll consider your offer, Henk.

445
00:24:30,437 --> 00:24:31,838
I can handle this, Father.

446
00:24:32,972 --> 00:24:34,941
We'll consider your offer, Mr. Rogers.

447
00:24:36,109 --> 00:24:37,243
I haven't made one yet.

448
00:24:38,144 --> 00:24:39,145
Yes.

449
00:24:42,282 --> 00:24:44,250
Have a splendid time in London.

450
00:24:51,910 --> 00:24:52,225
See you around.

451
00:24:54,394 --> 00:24:56,696
[whistles] You're excused, Mr. Stein.

452
00:24:56,763 --> 00:24:59,632
And do not bother coming back here
without fully executed contracts,

453
00:24:59,733 --> 00:25:02,469
including handheld Tetris, yes?

454
00:25:02,569 --> 00:25:04,137
[groans]

455
00:25:11,945 --> 00:25:13,613
We should give the Soviets some money.

456
00:25:13,713 --> 00:25:16,549
They don't care about money, Son.

457
00:25:16,616 --> 00:25:17,951
They care about loyalty.

458
00:25:18,180 --> 00:25:19,586
Premier Gorbachev is my friend.

459
00:25:19,652 --> 00:25:21,921
We're publishing his memoir. We're loyal.

460
00:25:21,988 --> 00:25:24,958
Yes, um, Father,
um, the company's pension manager called

461
00:25:25,250 --> 00:25:27,127
and said there was
a few million pounds missing

462
00:25:27,193 --> 00:25:29,329
from the employees' retirement fund
last week.

463
00:25:29,429 --> 00:25:32,465
Yes, uh, we had to rearrange
the balance sheets for the year-end.

464
00:25:32,565 --> 00:25:34,734
-Small accounting quirk, is all.
-So, I shan't worry?

465
00:25:34,801 --> 00:25:35,902
No, you shan't.

466
00:25:35,969 --> 00:25:40,840
But, Kevin, we need Tetris, understood?

467
00:25:44,511 --> 00:25:47,347
[door opens, closes]

468
00:25:51,918 --> 00:25:54,200
-[siren wailing in distance]
-Mr. Stein.

469
00:25:54,621 --> 00:25:56,220
Mr. Stein, please. Hold on.

470
00:25:56,790 --> 00:25:58,191
What happened in there?

471
00:25:58,291 --> 00:26:00,126
It's complicated.

472
00:26:00,193 --> 00:26:02,162
Wh-- You don't control handheld rights?

473
00:26:02,228 --> 00:26:04,798
I didn't say that.
I said it's complicated.

474
00:26:04,864 --> 00:26:07,000
Either you do, or you don't.
What's so complicated--

475
00:26:07,670 --> 00:26:09,636
Have you ever been in Moscow, Mr. Rogers?

476
00:26:09,703 --> 00:26:11,671
Have you ever negotiated with the Soviets?

477
00:26:11,771 --> 00:26:14,341
Do you know what it feels like
to be in a country where--

478
00:26:14,407 --> 00:26:16,420
where everyone is watching you?

479
00:26:16,142 --> 00:26:20,146
No. So, don't tell me what is
and what is not complicated.

480
00:26:20,947 --> 00:26:24,417
I'll pay you $25,000 to secure me
worldwide handheld rights.

481
00:26:32,192 --> 00:26:33,960
I guess it wasn't so complicated.

482
00:26:34,661 --> 00:26:36,663
[airplane whooshes]

483
00:26:37,397 --> 00:26:38,398
[tires screech]

484
00:26:38,498 --> 00:26:40,333
[phone ringing]

485
00:26:45,405 --> 00:26:48,341
-Hello.
-It's Howard Lincoln, Nintendo, America.

486
00:26:48,408 --> 00:26:51,745
Listen, I just heard that Robert Stein

487
00:26:51,845 --> 00:26:56,383
is selling handheld Tetris
to Atari for $100,000.

488
00:26:57,517 --> 00:26:59,850
-What?
-Yeah, Atari.

489
00:26:59,686 --> 00:27:01,588
You know how much
we hate those mother****ers.

490
00:27:01,688 --> 00:27:04,758
But now they supposedly have
a handheld device with our damn game.

491
00:27:04,858 --> 00:27:06,926
I paid Stein to get me handheld rights.

492
00:27:07,270 --> 00:27:08,280
What's happening?

493
00:27:08,940 --> 00:27:11,970
Is Stein cutting you out
and getting the deal for himself?

494
00:27:11,197 --> 00:27:14,367
I mean, if he is,
he's cutting out more than just me.

495
00:27:18,710 --> 00:27:20,607
Are you selling handheld Tetris to Atari
behind my back?

496
00:27:20,707 --> 00:27:22,575
-Kevin, good to see you.
-Do not call me Kevin!

497
00:27:22,642 --> 00:27:23,910
We are not chums.

498
00:27:24,100 --> 00:27:28,314
You deal with Mirrorsoft exclusively,
or have you forgotten your contract?

499
00:27:28,415 --> 00:27:29,416
Oh.

500
00:27:29,482 --> 00:27:33,887
Y-You mean the contract that gives me
global royalties on sales of Tetris?

501
00:27:33,953 --> 00:27:36,122
-Uh, 'cause I-I haven't got any yet.
-[pants]

502
00:27:36,222 --> 00:27:37,557
[exclaims] Okay! Okay.

503
00:27:38,580 --> 00:27:43,396
I-I-I haven't secured handheld rights yet,
but, uh, j-j-just give me some time.

504
00:27:43,463 --> 00:27:45,799
No,
I'll negotiate directly with the Russians.

505
00:27:46,466 --> 00:27:47,767
We're through.

506
00:27:48,768 --> 00:27:49,769
[glass shatters]

507
00:27:49,869 --> 00:27:51,104
Through?

508
00:27:51,204 --> 00:27:52,339
Through.

509
00:27:52,439 --> 00:27:53,440
[door slams]

510
00:27:53,506 --> 00:27:55,308
Screw it. I'm gonna go to Moscow.

511
00:27:55,408 --> 00:27:58,311
Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, you can't
just go to the Soviet Union, Henk.

512
00:27:58,411 --> 00:28:01,815
You need a-- You need a business visa,
a full background check. It takes months.

513
00:28:01,915 --> 00:28:03,750
Well, I'll get a tourist visa then.

514
00:28:03,817 --> 00:28:07,530
So, you'll lie? That's a felony.
They could throw you in jail.

515
00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:08,254
I'll take my chances.

516
00:28:08,321 --> 00:28:09,589
Who you gonna talk to?

517
00:28:11,910 --> 00:28:13,693
Some company called ELORG.

518
00:28:13,793 --> 00:28:17,664
Companies don't exist in the USSR, Henk.
ELORG is probably KGB.

519
00:28:17,764 --> 00:28:19,999
-Do you guys want this game or not?
-[Howard] Yeah, course we do.

520
00:28:20,100 --> 00:28:22,102
But you're walking
into a communist country

521
00:28:22,168 --> 00:28:25,238
that still considers America
enemy numero uno.

522
00:28:25,305 --> 00:28:27,774
If you go, we can't protect you.

523
00:28:28,541 --> 00:28:29,943
Okey dokey.

524
00:28:31,478 --> 00:28:33,380
[in Japanese]
Where are you going now, papa?

525
00:28:33,947 --> 00:28:35,515

-[in English] You're Danish?
-Huh? No. I'm Dutch.

529
00:28:51,564 --> 00:28:53,166
Yet you sound American.

530
00:28:53,266 --> 00:28:56,169
Well, I grew up in New York,
but I'm Dutch.

531
00:28:57,570 --> 00:28:59,973
An-- And I live in Japan. [chuckles]

-No, thank you.

535
00:29:36,376 --> 00:29:37,477
Hi.

536
00:29:38,780 --> 00:29:39,846
Henk Rogers, checking in.

537
00:29:41,810 --> 00:29:42,248
[sighs]

538
00:29:42,349 --> 00:29:44,718
I don't suppose you know
where I can find ELORG, do you?

539
00:29:44,784 --> 00:29:47,887
Otherwise known as Electronorgtechnica.
It's a government body.

540
00:29:47,954 --> 00:29:50,230
[clicks tongue] Government? Net.

541
00:29:50,724 --> 00:29:54,361
[smacks lips] "No," as in you don't know,
or "no," as in you're not gonna--

542
00:30:06,239 --> 00:30:07,741
[clerk, in Russian] We have a new guest…

543
00:30:12,450 --> 00:30:14,114
[in English] ELORG.
You know, phone number?

544
00:30:19,719 --> 00:30:21,788
-Translation services?
-No, thanks.

545
00:30:22,555 --> 00:30:23,890

[person] Taxi!

550
00:30:40,940 --> 00:30:43,843
[grocer, in Russian] No more fish or meat!

551
00:30:44,644 --> 00:30:45,578
Please!

552
00:30:45,612 --> 00:30:47,247
You must have some.

553
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:48,748
My family is hungry.

554
00:30:49,149 --> 00:30:50,650
I have money.

555
00:30:56,322 --> 00:30:57,557
Take this. Please.

556
00:30:57,590 --> 00:30:58,958
No. You have a family too.

557
00:30:59,759 --> 00:31:01,594
Please. My family will be fine.

558
00:31:01,628 --> 00:31:02,595
Thank you.

559
00:31:08,340 --> 00:31:09,569
[in English] Salutations.

560
00:31:11,171 --> 00:31:12,972
You're in need of succor?

561
00:31:14,341 --> 00:31:16,142
Excuse me?

562
00:31:16,242 --> 00:31:21,114
Uh, succor. Noun.
Uh, assistance in times of stress.

563
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,416
Synonymous with help.

564
00:31:23,483 --> 00:31:25,685
Sasha. Translation services.

565
00:31:25,785 --> 00:31:27,320
Esteemed to meet you.

566
00:31:27,987 --> 00:31:28,988
Oh. [chuckles]

567
00:31:29,550 --> 00:31:30,357
[Sasha] Do you fancy history?

568
00:31:30,457 --> 00:31:34,694
We can visit Stalin's Seven Sisters,
his palaces for the proletariat.

569
00:31:35,195 --> 00:31:36,196
Or art?

570
00:31:36,696 --> 00:31:38,264
We can go to the Pushkin Museum.

571
00:31:38,331 --> 00:31:43,837
Actually,
where I really need to go is ELORG.

572
00:31:45,605 --> 00:31:48,708
I assumed you were here
for vacationing purposes.

573
00:31:49,342 --> 00:31:50,677
So you've heard of it?

00:31:59,185 --> 00:32:00,787

[Sasha pants]

576
00:32:06,260 --> 00:32:09,290
Mr. Rogers, this is not America.

577
00:32:09,662 --> 00:32:13,733
Entering a government structure
without invite is highly illegal.

578
00:32:13,833 --> 00:32:19,372
Sasha, I didn't travel 5,000 miles
to be stopped by a door.

582
00:32:31,384 --> 00:32:32,218
Yes?

583
00:32:32,385 --> 00:32:34,187
Someone for you.

584
00:32:36,856 --> 00:32:38,124
I'm listening.

585
00:32:38,892 --> 00:32:41,861
[in English] Uh, yeah, hi. Henk Rogers.

586
00:32:44,864 --> 00:32:46,299
Bullet-Proof Software.

587
00:32:47,667 --> 00:32:53,273
[stammers] I publish the video game
version of Tetris in Japan,

588
00:32:53,373 --> 00:32:56,309
and I'm here to license
the worldwide handheld rights from you.

589
00:32:56,976 --> 00:32:57,844
[in Russian] What's that?

590
00:32:57,877 --> 00:32:59,790
Hmm?

591
00:32:59,145 --> 00:33:00,213
Where's it from?

592
00:33:00,380 --> 00:33:03,216
[in English] I'm-- I'm sorry.
I-- I don't speak--

593

One sec.

594
00:33:06,886 --> 00:33:09,550
Sorry, Sasha, but I really need you.

595
00:33:10,623 --> 00:33:11,958
It's gonna be fine.

596
00:33:12,580 --> 00:33:13,693

597
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,960
Uh, this is Sasha, my translator.

598
00:33:16,162 --> 00:33:18,398
[in Russian] Hello, my name is Sasha.

599
00:33:18,431 --> 00:33:19,766
I'm a translator.

600
00:33:21,334 --> 00:33:22,702
[in English] Okay? Okay.

601
00:33:22,769 --> 00:33:23,937
My name is Henk Rogers.

602
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:25,105
[translating in Russian]

603
00:33:25,171 --> 00:33:27,807
And I publish Tetris
for Nintendo in Japan.

604

[translating continues]

605
00:33:30,100 --> 00:33:33,313
[speaking Russian]

606
00:33:34,140 --> 00:33:36,483
[in English] He inquires,
"What is Nintendo?"

607
00:33:36,983 --> 00:33:38,885
Ha. Very funny.

608
00:33:40,954 --> 00:33:44,290
Uh, Nintendo's the most popular
video game console in the world, sir.

609
00:33:44,357 --> 00:33:46,426
[translating in Russian]

[speaking Russian]

611
00:33:49,996 --> 00:33:54,200
[in English] He says ELORG never licensed
Tetris video game rights to anyone, ever.

612
00:33:54,300 --> 00:33:55,502
[Nikolai speaking Russian]

613
00:33:55,602 --> 00:33:58,171
[in English]
Only the computer game version.

614
00:33:59,272 --> 00:34:02,420
-No, that can't be true. Look, uh…
-[translating continues]

615
00:34:02,142 --> 00:34:05,979
ELORG licensed the rights
to Robert Stein at Andromeda,

616
00:34:06,460 --> 00:34:08,548
-[translating continues]
-…Andromeda to Mirrorsoft…

617
00:34:08,648 --> 00:34:13,530
and Mirrorsoft's representative
in Las Vegas to Bullet-Proof Software,

618
00:34:13,153 --> 00:34:14,154
which is me.

619
00:34:14,220 --> 00:34:15,789
[translating continues]

620
00:34:16,890 --> 00:34:18,625
I gave it to Mirrorsoft to send to you.

-[in English] He denies obtaining a tape.
-[speaking Russian]

624
00:34:27,767 --> 00:34:30,704
[in English]
And says that this is an illegal copy.

625
00:34:32,706 --> 00:34:34,240
Mr. Rogers, I think we should vanish.

626
00:34:35,709 --> 00:34:37,243
He thinks I stole Tetris?

627
00:34:37,344 --> 00:34:38,845
Affirmative.

628
00:34:38,912 --> 00:34:44,317
Uh, tell him I have my whole life
and then some invested in this game.

629
00:34:44,384 --> 00:34:47,654
-He's-- He's mistaken.
-[translating continues]

630
00:34:49,656 --> 00:34:52,559
[in Russian] I advise you to leave this
government institution.

631
00:34:52,592 --> 00:34:54,994
Otherwise, as a foreign citizen
on a tourist visa,

632
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,797
you will be sent to prison
for fraud and trespassing.

633
00:34:59,232 --> 00:35:01,167
[in English] He says he is not mistaken.

634
00:35:01,234 --> 00:35:03,536
Is that-- Is that all he said?

635
00:35:05,171 --> 00:35:06,239
Yes.

636
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:10,430
Sure. Okay, uh, tell him I'll fix this.

637
00:35:10,543 --> 00:35:14,447
-We can figure out console…
-[translating continues]

638
00:35:14,547 --> 00:35:17,584

[speaking Russian]

640
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,292
[in English] He says return in the morrow
at nine o'clock.

641
00:35:26,393 --> 00:35:29,195
-But I must warn you--
-Okay. Okay, great. Thanks.

642
00:35:29,763 --> 00:35:32,650
-Thanks. [clears throat]
-[translating continues]

643
00:35:33,330 --> 00:35:34,367
You're gonna-- Okay.

00:35:34,434 --> 00:35:36,369
-Thank you.
-[speaking Russian]

645
00:35:40,907 --> 00:35:43,760
[in English]
I need an international pay phone.

646
00:35:43,877 --> 00:35:48,480
International pay phones
do not exist in Soviet Union, Henk.

647
00:35:48,114 --> 00:35:49,783
But I need to call home.

648
00:35:50,884 --> 00:35:51,885
You don't understand.

649
00:35:51,951 --> 00:35:53,920
I convinced my wife to risk our home

650
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:55,655
so that I could afford
Tetris video game rights,

651
00:35:55,755 --> 00:35:57,657
and now I'm being told I don't have them?

652
00:35:58,758 --> 00:36:01,394
If I don't fix this, I'm ****ed.

653
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,465
Your hotel has phone.

654
00:36:05,965 --> 00:36:07,801
Okay, great. Let's go.

655
00:36:07,901 --> 00:36:12,806
But you must wait in line as, uh,
only few wires leave our great nation.

656
00:36:12,906 --> 00:36:14,107
But h-- how long?

657
00:36:14,207 --> 00:36:17,644
Hmm, anywhere from eight hours to a week.

658
00:36:17,744 --> 00:36:18,745
What?

659
00:36:20,113 --> 00:36:24,117
Okay, but there's a fax machine
at the hotel, right?

660
00:36:24,217 --> 00:36:28,221
Fax and telex
are in government buildings only, Henk.

661
00:36:28,288 --> 00:36:31,491
Mr. Rogers, a word.

662
00:36:31,591 --> 00:36:32,592
Please.

663
00:36:39,833 --> 00:36:40,834
[door slams]

664
00:36:46,639 --> 00:36:48,108
Do you know who I am?

665
00:36:49,976 --> 00:36:51,244
I've got an idea.

666
00:36:51,978 --> 00:36:53,130
Good.

667
00:36:54,714 --> 00:36:57,170
I assume your translator told you

668
00:36:57,117 --> 00:37:02,880
foreigners are not allowed in government
buildings without formal invitation.

669
00:37:03,690 --> 00:37:04,991
Go home.

670
00:37:05,910 --> 00:37:06,359
Understood?

671
00:37:16,102 --> 00:37:17,170
[breathes shakily]

672
00:37:22,642 --> 00:37:25,679
Mr. Maxwell, Valentin Trifonov,

673
00:37:25,745 --> 00:37:29,150
Central Committee of the Communist Party,
Department of Foreign Trade.

674
00:37:29,115 --> 00:37:30,583
Welcome to Russia.

675
00:37:30,684 --> 00:37:32,986
My father told me to expect Gorbachev.

676
00:37:34,387 --> 00:37:35,822
You're not Gorbachev.

677
00:37:35,889 --> 00:37:38,124
And you're not your father.

678
00:37:40,260 --> 00:37:41,394
You're here for Tetris, yes?

679
00:37:44,130 --> 00:37:45,131
[sniffles]

680
00:37:45,198 --> 00:37:48,680
Let's see what we can arrange.

681
00:37:57,944 --> 00:37:59,579
[people chattering]

682
00:37:59,679 --> 00:38:00,747
Morning, Sasha.

683
00:38:00,847 --> 00:38:03,950
Any chance I can cajole you
into changing your mind?

684
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:05,352
Not a chance.

685
00:38:07,687 --> 00:38:08,755
[in Russian] Ready?

686
00:38:14,270 --> 00:38:16,496
[speaking Russian]

687
00:38:16,563 --> 00:38:18,765
[Sasha, in English]
Henk, this is Alexey Pajitnov,

688
00:38:18,865 --> 00:38:21,201
the inventor of Tetris.

689
00:38:21,267 --> 00:38:23,203
-Wow, really?
-Mr. Rogers…

690
00:38:23,269 --> 00:38:24,571
[speaking Russian]

691
00:38:24,637 --> 00:38:28,375
[in English] Henk, Mr. Belikov would like
you to know that he doesn't trust you.

692
00:38:28,441 --> 00:38:30,710
[speaking Russian]

693
00:38:30,777 --> 00:38:36,216
[in English] And you-- Sorry, these
are not my words-- are a liar and a thief.

694
00:38:38,985 --> 00:38:40,286
I'm also a horrible cook.

695
00:38:41,187 --> 00:38:42,288
[translating in Russian]

696
00:38:44,924 --> 00:38:46,726
[in English] That was a joke.

697
00:38:47,427 --> 00:38:49,662
-I don't think he understood.
-Yeah, I can see that.

698
00:38:49,763 --> 00:38:50,830
[footsteps approaching]

699
00:38:52,565 --> 00:38:53,666
[sighs]

700
00:38:54,934 --> 00:38:56,536
[in Russian] Please, Mr Belikov continue.

701
00:39:00,306 --> 00:39:01,675
[scoffs]

702
00:39:01,775 --> 00:39:03,810
[in English]
I'm sorry, but who-- uh, who are you?

703
00:39:03,910 --> 00:39:05,145
Please, sit.

704
00:39:08,748 --> 00:39:13,920
The more important question here
is who are you, Henk Rogers?

705
00:39:17,900 --> 00:39:19,492
Your visa says you're a tourist,
but you're not.

706
00:39:19,592 --> 00:39:21,294
[sucks teeth] A crime.

707
00:39:21,394 --> 00:39:25,799
Your Tetris game says you licensed it,
but you did not.

708
00:39:25,865 --> 00:39:28,168
Well, another crime.

709
00:39:29,269 --> 00:39:32,639
So, here's what I'm thinking.

710
00:39:33,940 --> 00:39:39,846
You go home today, cease production
of Tetris, all will be forgiven.

711
00:39:40,847 --> 00:39:43,183
Or you stay and face the consequences.

712
00:39:45,180 --> 00:39:46,119
[smacks lips]

713
00:39:46,186 --> 00:39:49,189
I-- I'm not going home without a deal.

714
00:39:50,590 --> 00:39:51,591
Sorry.

715
00:39:51,658 --> 00:39:55,695
"Sorry" will not work in our courts,
Mr. Rogers.

716
00:39:57,197 --> 00:39:58,798
[in Russian] Mr Belikov…

717
00:40:15,782 --> 00:40:16,783
[in English] Alexey.

718
00:40:18,685 --> 00:40:20,987
I just wanna say
that your game is brilliant.

719
00:40:21,540 --> 00:40:22,622
[translating in Russian]

720
00:40:22,689 --> 00:40:24,691
[in English] Thank you. I speak English.

721
00:40:25,458 --> 00:40:27,327
And I have so, so many questions.

722
00:40:27,394 --> 00:40:30,930
But first, I want you to know that
when I clear up this misunderstanding,

723
00:40:31,310 --> 00:40:33,733
and hopefully secure handheld rights,

724
00:40:35,335 --> 00:40:36,870
I'm gonna make you a millionaire.

725
00:40:38,805 --> 00:40:41,741
-Mr. Rogers.
-Please, call me Henk.

726
00:40:44,577 --> 00:40:50,583
Mr. Rogers, I do not have right
to receive money from my game.

727
00:40:50,684 --> 00:40:52,218
Well, that-- that's criminal.

728
00:40:52,285 --> 00:40:53,420
No.

729
00:40:54,187 --> 00:40:55,655
It is communism.

730
00:40:59,250 --> 00:41:00,593
[in Russian] If that idiot's a thief…

731
00:41:01,610 --> 00:41:02,620
Jail him.

732
00:41:04,264 --> 00:41:06,132
Are the other buyers here?

733
00:41:08,935 --> 00:41:10,437
Keep them separated.

734
00:41:10,770 --> 00:41:14,207
We are going to beat these capitalists
at their own game.

735
00:41:18,578 --> 00:41:19,746
[Henk, in English] Mr. Belikov,

736
00:41:19,846 --> 00:41:23,550
if I'm a thief, why would I come to Moscow
and proudly show you my game?

737
00:41:23,616 --> 00:41:25,510
[Sasha translating in Russian]

738
00:41:25,118 --> 00:41:30,623
[speaking Russian]

739
00:41:31,224 --> 00:41:33,760
[in English]
Because you want handheld rights.

740
00:41:33,860 --> 00:41:37,263
Yeah, but if I already stole
video game and arcade rights,

741
00:41:37,330 --> 00:41:39,866
what would stop me from stealing handheld?

742
00:41:39,933 --> 00:41:41,670
[translating continues]

743
00:41:41,134 --> 00:41:45,500
[speaking Russian]

744
00:41:45,105 --> 00:41:48,808
[in English] Mr. Belikov inquires
as to why you mention arcade rights.

745
00:41:48,908 --> 00:41:51,478
Uh, I bought Japanese arcade rights too,

746
00:41:51,578 --> 00:41:54,948
only to find out that Mirrorsoft
already licensed them to SEGA.

747
00:41:55,150 --> 00:41:57,450
-[translating continues]
-[in English] Stop, stop, stop.

748
00:41:57,550 --> 00:42:04,157
[speaking Russian]

749
00:42:04,257 --> 00:42:08,361
[in English] ELORG never transacted
arcade rights to anyone, Henk.

750
00:42:10,597 --> 00:42:12,332
Wa-- Wait, hold on.

751
00:42:13,133 --> 00:42:16,803
So you're saying the only version
of Tetris you ever licensed

752
00:42:16,903 --> 00:42:18,304
was for personal computers?

753
00:42:18,371 --> 00:42:20,273
[translating continues]

754
00:42:21,808 --> 00:42:23,276
Can I see the contract you signed?

755
00:42:23,343 --> 00:42:25,145
[translating continues]

756
00:42:25,211 --> 00:42:28,140
[in English] Please,
it'll help me understand what's going on.

757
00:42:28,114 --> 00:42:29,215
[translating continues]

758
00:42:29,315 --> 00:42:31,918
-'Cause I-- I don't know if you know…
-[translating continues]

759
00:42:31,985 --> 00:42:33,787
…but Stein and Mirrorsoft are selling

760
00:42:33,853 --> 00:42:38,958
Tetris video game
and arcade rights worldwide.

761
00:42:39,250 --> 00:42:40,193
[translating continues]

762
00:42:48,134 --> 00:42:49,869
[unzips]

763
00:43:03,116 --> 00:43:04,417
Mr. Belikov?

764
00:43:05,819 --> 00:43:08,210
I'm, uh, Robert Stein.

765
00:43:08,655 --> 00:43:12,826
I'm here to shore up contracts
for arcade and handheld rights.

766
00:43:12,892 --> 00:43:14,427
Uh, please, Mr. Stein. One minute.

767
00:43:14,527 --> 00:43:16,620
Hmm? What?

768
00:43:18,531 --> 00:43:20,200
Ah, Mr. Belikov.

769
00:43:20,266 --> 00:43:22,100
Thank you very much for agreeing to meet.

770
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:23,203
[speaking Russian]

771
00:43:23,269 --> 00:43:25,438
Mr. Belikov asks, "What is this?"

772
00:43:25,538 --> 00:43:29,420
[smacks lips] Well, I suppose
it's Tetris for Nintendo in Japan.

773
00:43:29,142 --> 00:43:31,878
But I'm here to discuss handheld rights,
not video, so…

774
00:43:31,978 --> 00:43:36,583
[speaking Russian]

775
00:43:36,683 --> 00:43:38,685
[translator, in English]
He asks if you authorized

776
00:43:38,752 --> 00:43:41,221
the sale of Tetris video games
to Henk Rogers.

777
00:43:41,287 --> 00:43:44,224
Mr. Belikov, I run one of the largest
media companies in Europe.

778
00:43:44,290 --> 00:43:47,260
I don't have time to meddle
in the day-to-day aspects. [chuckles]

779
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,529
[speaking Russian]

780
00:43:49,596 --> 00:43:52,165
[in English] So, you are saying
that you have never seen this game?

781
00:43:52,232 --> 00:43:54,467
No, I'm saying that
we should move on to today's business.

782
00:43:54,567 --> 00:43:56,536
[speaking Russian]

783
00:43:56,603 --> 00:43:58,400
[in English] Do you think it's pirated?

784
00:43:58,710 --> 00:43:59,639
I don't know, maybe?

785
00:44:00,240 --> 00:44:02,750
Can we talk about handheld Tetris?

786
00:44:02,175 --> 00:44:03,176
[speaking Russian]

787
00:44:03,243 --> 00:44:04,611
[in English] Tomorrow, thank you.

788
00:44:04,711 --> 00:44:05,779
Yeah.

789
00:44:06,279 --> 00:44:08,248
****ing commie bastards.

790
00:44:08,314 --> 00:44:09,549
[inhales]

791
00:44:12,919 --> 00:44:17,457
-Okay, I read the contract and I agree.
-[translating in Russian]

792
00:44:17,557 --> 00:44:21,261
You never intentionally sold
video game rights to Robert Stein.

793
00:44:21,327 --> 00:44:23,630
[translating continues]

794
00:44:23,129 --> 00:44:25,465
-[Henk] But here's the thing…
-[translating continues]

795
00:44:28,201 --> 00:44:29,202
[gasps]

796
00:44:29,736 --> 00:44:33,406
-Okay, this is a Nintendo.
-[translating continues]

797
00:44:34,307 --> 00:44:36,943
And this is a personal computer.

798
00:44:38,211 --> 00:44:39,479
What's the difference?

799
00:44:41,214 --> 00:44:42,916
No keyboard for Nintendo.

800
00:44:42,982 --> 00:44:44,500
[video game beeps]

801
00:44:44,117 --> 00:44:45,652
No keyboard for Ninte--

802
00:44:46,820 --> 00:44:48,880
You speak English?

803
00:44:49,222 --> 00:44:50,957
Of course you do.

804
00:44:51,570 --> 00:44:52,258
Look, I'm sorry.

805
00:44:53,159 --> 00:44:54,461
Robert Stein screwed you.

806
00:44:54,527 --> 00:44:56,963
-But legally speaking…
-[taps desk]

807
00:44:57,630 --> 00:45:00,800
…he didn't steal from you,
which means I didn't steal from you.

808
00:45:03,503 --> 00:45:06,606
Next time, define computers so you can
hold on to your video game rights.

809
00:45:10,844 --> 00:45:12,120
[clears throat]

810
00:45:15,148 --> 00:45:16,483
And what about arcade?

811
00:45:16,549 --> 00:45:19,190
There's nothing in that contract
about arcade rights.

812
00:45:20,253 --> 00:45:22,288
That, Stein definitely stole from you.

813
00:45:23,256 --> 00:45:24,524
How much are they worth?

814
00:45:25,525 --> 00:45:27,394
$150,000.

815
00:45:32,565 --> 00:45:34,000
Where does he keep running to?

816
00:45:34,734 --> 00:45:35,869
Mr. Belikov.

817
00:45:37,303 --> 00:45:38,371
Mr. Belikov.

818
00:45:38,471 --> 00:45:39,339
[in Russian] No!

819
00:45:42,809 --> 00:45:45,912
[in English] Alexey,
we got off on the wrong foot.

820
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:47,681
Can I buy you dinner?

821
00:45:47,747 --> 00:45:51,510
Mr. Rogers, I'm not for sale.

822
00:45:55,588 --> 00:46:01,127
Is paragraph 40 a more prudent definition
of PC computer?

823
00:46:02,162 --> 00:46:04,698
"Whereas PC computers
consist of processor,

824
00:46:04,764 --> 00:46:06,299
monitor disk drive, and keyboard."

825
00:46:06,366 --> 00:46:07,867
-Yeah, much better.
-Keyboard.

826
00:46:07,934 --> 00:46:11,404
But Stein signed years ago.
What's the point of this?

827
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,675
Oh, no. Please. You're welcome.

828
00:46:15,742 --> 00:46:16,876
Okay.

829
00:46:16,943 --> 00:46:18,712
Okay. Wh-What is going on?

830
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,530
What is this?

831
00:46:27,153 --> 00:46:28,221
New contract.

832
00:46:29,222 --> 00:46:33,260
$150,000 for arcade rights? [chuckles]

833
00:46:33,930 --> 00:46:34,928
Who the hell gave you these numbers?

834
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,164
Who gave SEGA the right
to sell Tetris arcade in Japan?

835
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:41,201
Hmm?

836
00:46:42,736 --> 00:46:43,737
If--

837
00:46:44,504 --> 00:46:50,276
If I sign this contract,
then we can discuss handheld rights, yes?

838
00:46:52,879 --> 00:46:56,916
I-I-I need a night to-- to-- to--
to read the contract. Hmm?

839
00:46:59,919 --> 00:47:01,554
[speaking Russian]

840
00:47:03,456 --> 00:47:05,525
[in English]
He says we are done for the day.

841
00:47:05,592 --> 00:47:07,627
But we haven't discussed handheld yet.

842
00:47:07,727 --> 00:47:08,661
[speaking Russian]

843
00:47:08,762 --> 00:47:12,365
[in English] He says we will
gallantly attack that in the morrow.

844
00:47:13,199 --> 00:47:14,567
[taps desk]

845
00:47:14,634 --> 00:47:15,635
Okay.

846
00:47:18,710 --> 00:47:19,720
Alexey.

847
00:47:20,273 --> 00:47:21,274
You want a lift?

848
00:47:22,742 --> 00:47:24,411
-I have car.
-Oh.

849
00:47:25,780 --> 00:47:26,379
Can I get a lift, then?

850
00:47:33,853 --> 00:47:35,221
So, where you from?

851
00:47:37,624 --> 00:47:39,759
I'm from Holland,
but I grew up in New York.

852
00:47:40,326 --> 00:47:44,297
My parents were Dutch
with some Jewish and Indonesian blood.

853
00:47:46,266 --> 00:47:48,568
I'm basically Eddie Van Halen.

854
00:47:48,635 --> 00:47:49,869
[laughs]

855
00:47:51,137 --> 00:47:53,273
Mr. Rogers, I don't need small talk.

856
00:47:56,420 --> 00:47:59,145
Look, believe it or not,
I honestly want to get to know you.

857
00:47:59,946 --> 00:48:02,949
If not as a business partner,
then as a fan.

858
00:48:04,951 --> 00:48:07,654
[gasps]
Come to my hotel for dinner tonight.

859
00:48:08,588 --> 00:48:09,689
No.

860
00:48:10,690 --> 00:48:12,692
[Henk] Then can I come to your house?

861
00:48:15,795 --> 00:48:20,660
Having a foreigner in one's home
is crime here.

862
00:48:21,201 --> 00:48:22,669
So…

863
00:48:25,710 --> 00:48:27,374
just call.

864
00:48:27,474 --> 00:48:28,775
[scribbling]

865
00:48:29,609 --> 00:48:30,610
Great.

866
00:48:31,344 --> 00:48:32,712
Thanks for the ride.

867
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,216
-Guess how long my meeting lasted?
-Two minutes and three seconds.

868
00:48:36,316 --> 00:48:38,785
You, sir, need better manners.

869
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,255
[translator] You are saying
that you've never seen this game?

870
00:48:42,355 --> 00:48:45,225
-[Kevin] I'm saying that we should move--
-[recording stops]

871
00:48:45,325 --> 00:48:46,559
You are spying on me?

872
00:48:48,328 --> 00:48:51,331
Careful, Kevin.

873
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:54,901
[sighs]

874
00:48:55,100 --> 00:48:59,272
Let's take a walk outside. Yes?

875
00:49:22,662 --> 00:49:24,597
[Valentin]
What are you offering for Tetris?

876
00:49:24,698 --> 00:49:27,400
[Kevin groans] The exclusive publishing
rights to our Collier's Encycl--

877
00:49:27,500 --> 00:49:30,360
No. How much money?

878
00:49:30,103 --> 00:49:32,605
[sighs] The rights are worth
two million dollars.

879
00:49:34,574 --> 00:49:35,675
Hmm.

880
00:49:36,943 --> 00:49:39,450
[snickers] Excuse me?

881
00:49:40,460 --> 00:49:41,681
This is ****ing Russia.

882
00:49:42,515 --> 00:49:44,584
You people, you don't care about money.

883
00:49:46,453 --> 00:49:47,454
[sighs]

884
00:49:47,554 --> 00:49:50,290
-Where are you from, Mr. Maxwell?
-What's that got to do with it?

885
00:49:50,390 --> 00:49:52,926
Me, I'm from Stavropol Krai.

886
00:49:53,927 --> 00:49:57,764
My parents were kolkhoz,
you know, sharecroppers.

887
00:49:58,631 --> 00:50:02,268
They worked 18 hours a day
on a state-owned farm.

888
00:50:02,335 --> 00:50:04,704
-The government took everything.
-[sighs]

889
00:50:04,771 --> 00:50:08,608
I realized very young that
if I was going to succeed in this society,

890
00:50:08,708 --> 00:50:11,978
I would need this. Only this.

891
00:50:12,780 --> 00:50:13,790
[scoffs]

892
00:50:13,146 --> 00:50:16,649
And unlike you,
nobody helped me get to where I am today.

893
00:50:16,750 --> 00:50:19,252
So, spare me the Bolshevik shit.

894
00:50:20,954 --> 00:50:22,622
[sighs, smacks lips]

895
00:50:22,722 --> 00:50:24,491
Communism is dying.

896
00:50:24,591 --> 00:50:26,126
Soon I'll be out of a job.

897
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:30,663
Like you,
I want to walk away with the best deal.

898
00:50:31,731 --> 00:50:33,900
You want me to bribe you? [gasps]

899
00:50:34,801 --> 00:50:36,360
Is that what this is?

900
00:50:36,136 --> 00:50:37,137
[scoffs]

901
00:50:38,104 --> 00:50:40,740
-No, no. I run an honest company.
-[Valentin scoffs]

902
00:50:40,807 --> 00:50:44,477
Nobody becomes a billionaire
by being honest, Mr. Maxwell.

903
00:50:44,577 --> 00:50:47,313
And nobody becomes a billionaire
by trusting a dirty politico either.

904
00:50:47,380 --> 00:50:51,351
If you are in search of a pawn,
I do suggest you **** off.

905
00:50:52,919 --> 00:50:53,953
Good day.

906
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:55,822
[bird cawing]

907
00:50:58,580 --> 00:51:02,862
$100,000, US, when I get the deal.

908
00:51:02,962 --> 00:51:04,130
No.

909
00:51:04,197 --> 00:51:06,299
That is not what I'm asking.

910
00:51:07,670 --> 00:51:07,967
[in Russian] Boris

911
00:51:08,340 --> 00:51:09,369
Stop recording.

912
00:51:11,538 --> 00:51:13,673
-[clicks]
-[in English] 800,000.

913
00:51:13,773 --> 00:51:16,376
Half up-front, wired to a Swiss account.

914
00:51:16,476 --> 00:51:20,380
300, paid when I get handheld Tetris.

915
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,782
Oh. Perhaps I'll ask Mr. Rogers.

916
00:51:22,849 --> 00:51:24,517
Henk Rogers has no money.

917
00:51:24,584 --> 00:51:27,520
He reps Nintendo,
and they'd never bribe you.

918
00:51:27,587 --> 00:51:31,491
And Robert Stein is too cheap, so don't
even bother threatening me with him.

919
00:51:31,558 --> 00:51:32,792
400.

920
00:51:32,859 --> 00:51:34,160
Final offer.

921
00:51:35,862 --> 00:51:37,397
Okay then.

922
00:51:37,497 --> 00:51:39,132
And, Mr. Trifonov?

923
00:51:39,199 --> 00:51:43,603
Kevin does not need to know
about any of this.

924
00:51:45,605 --> 00:51:47,730
[clicks]

925
00:51:51,578 --> 00:51:53,446

[shouting in distance]

927
00:52:04,257 --> 00:52:06,826
[shutter clicking]

928
00:52:08,862 --> 00:52:10,363
[spouse, in Russian]
Why are we taking the risk?

929
00:52:10,430 --> 00:52:12,465
Especially after
what happened to your father.

930
00:52:12,632 --> 00:52:14,934
Have you ever tried to say no
to an American?

931
00:52:15,350 --> 00:52:16,102
[knocks]

932
00:52:16,302 --> 00:52:17,470
It's impossible.

933
00:52:26,613 --> 00:52:28,281
[in English] Hello.

934
00:52:28,381 --> 00:52:29,382
Hi.

935
00:52:29,449 --> 00:52:31,918
That's Maya. She's ten.

936
00:52:33,530 --> 00:52:34,454
Julie's eight.

937
00:52:35,855 --> 00:52:37,123
Michael, six.

938
00:52:37,223 --> 00:52:39,590
Leo's three.

939
00:52:39,125 --> 00:52:41,261
And that is my wife, Akemi.

940
00:52:42,950 --> 00:52:44,230
We met in college, in Hawaii,

941
00:52:44,297 --> 00:52:47,801
fell in love,
and I followed her back to Tokyo.

942
00:52:48,401 --> 00:52:50,203
You have lived many places.

943
00:52:51,338 --> 00:52:52,472
Yeah, I guess so.

944
00:52:53,506 --> 00:52:54,507
How about you?

945
00:52:55,308 --> 00:52:56,509
Oh, I lived only here.

946
00:52:56,609 --> 00:52:57,911
In Moscow?

947
00:52:57,977 --> 00:52:59,679
In this apartment.

948
00:53:03,516 --> 00:53:04,517
[slurps]

949
00:53:05,885 --> 00:53:09,550
So, Henk, how do you like Moscow?

950
00:53:09,122 --> 00:53:10,123
Honestly?

951
00:53:11,224 --> 00:53:12,826
It's a bit confusing. [chuckles]

952
00:53:12,926 --> 00:53:16,463
Russia is difficult country
to love at first.

953
00:53:16,529 --> 00:53:20,133
Much like our literature,
it's cold and dark on the outside.

954
00:53:20,934 --> 00:53:23,503
But also romantic and inspired. [chuckles]

955
00:53:23,603 --> 00:53:25,705
Nobody sees that side anymore.

956
00:53:26,339 --> 00:53:28,475
How did you find Tetris, Henk?

957
00:53:29,442 --> 00:53:34,180
I was at the Consumer Electronics Show in
Las Vegas, selling a game I had designed.

958
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,549
Then I saw your husband's game--

959
00:53:36,649 --> 00:53:38,351
-And then you stole it.
-[Alexey] Nina.

960
00:53:38,952 --> 00:53:40,787
No, it-- it's fine.

961
00:53:42,188 --> 00:53:44,357
I licensed it from a big company
who lied to me.

962
00:53:46,626 --> 00:53:48,695
But I'm here to make things right.

963
00:53:48,795 --> 00:53:50,330
Because Tetris--

964
00:53:51,698 --> 00:53:52,966
It's that good.

965
00:53:57,337 --> 00:53:59,372
[in Russian] He's dumb. But he is honest.

966
00:54:02,509 --> 00:54:06,479
[in English]
So you are a game designer, Henk?

967
00:54:07,470 --> 00:54:09,150
Mmm. And a programmer.

968
00:54:09,115 --> 00:54:12,285
Well, though I've mostly
been doing sales lately.

969
00:54:12,352 --> 00:54:15,288
Pascal or assembler?

970
00:54:15,355 --> 00:54:17,757
I was gonna ask you the same thing.
[chuckles]

971
00:54:17,857 --> 00:54:19,726
Um, I like Pascal.

972
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:21,861
Assembler is my go-to.

973
00:54:21,928 --> 00:54:23,630
But never underestimate…

974
00:54:23,163 --> 00:54:24,864
[both] …the power of BASIC.

975
00:54:26,366 --> 00:54:27,367
[chuckles]

976
00:54:29,402 --> 00:54:30,837
That's spooky.

977
00:54:30,904 --> 00:54:32,500
[laughs]

978
00:54:32,572 --> 00:54:33,673
[computer starting up]

979
00:54:36,676 --> 00:54:37,677
This is it?

980
00:54:38,712 --> 00:54:39,713
The original?

981
00:54:40,580 --> 00:54:42,582
[computer beeping]

982
00:54:47,487 --> 00:54:49,890
Amazing.

984
00:54:53,893 --> 00:54:55,328
Can I play?

985
00:54:59,232 --> 00:55:00,333
Yes.

986
00:55:03,870 --> 00:55:04,871

[computer beeping]

988
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:08,875
[Henk] It's always been bugging me.

989
00:55:08,942 --> 00:55:12,780
Why can't both lines disappear at once
instead of one at a time?

990
00:55:12,178 --> 00:55:14,800
-Um, because, uh…
-[computer beeping]

991
00:55:14,180 --> 00:55:15,348
[typing]

992
00:55:15,415 --> 00:55:17,584
-…I never thought of that.
-[chuckles]

993
00:55:18,551 --> 00:55:21,187
[Henk] We should allow up to four lines
to disappear at once.

994
00:55:21,721 --> 00:55:23,123
We should?

995
00:55:24,570 --> 00:55:25,392
What?

996
00:55:25,458 --> 00:55:26,893
Yeah.

997
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:28,561
Give it a try. No harm.

998
00:55:28,628 --> 00:55:30,630

999
00:55:30,730 --> 00:55:32,198

1000
00:55:32,665 --> 00:55:34,768
-[Alexey] Henk? Hmm.
-Right.

1001
00:55:42,475 --> 00:55:44,444
Higher levels equals more points.
So, you'd--

1002
00:55:45,211 --> 00:55:46,212
Sorry.

1003
00:55:53,620 --> 00:55:55,388
-[laughs]
-Close.

1004
00:55:55,455 --> 00:55:57,490
But we need something more.

1005
00:56:04,431 --> 00:56:05,465
Ha.

1006
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,637
Life is hard,
and we deserve our small celebrations.

1007
00:56:10,704 --> 00:56:12,639
Oh, I forgot how much fun this is.

00:56:17,143 --> 00:56:18,178

-Stay quiet. Go.
-What's--

1013
00:56:25,618 --> 00:56:26,886
-Be quiet.
-What is the--

1014
00:56:26,986 --> 00:56:28,210
Quiet!

1015
00:56:38,631 --> 00:56:41,670
[in Russian]
Good evening. Do you have any salt?

1016
00:56:41,301 --> 00:56:42,135
Salt?

Neighbour.

00:56:48,375 --> 00:56:50,143
Alexey, please!

1020
00:56:55,150 --> 00:56:57,717
-[in English] What is--
-Sorry, Henk, you have to go.

1021
00:56:57,817 --> 00:56:59,185
Okay.

1022
00:56:59,252 --> 00:57:01,888
-But only if you come with me.
-What?

1023
00:57:01,988 --> 00:57:04,724
We should go out.
But not at some tourist bar.

1024
00:57:04,824 --> 00:57:06,693
Show me the real Moscow,
where people like you hang out.

1025
00:57:06,793 --> 00:57:09,396
Henk, it is really not good idea. I'm--

1026
00:57:09,496 --> 00:57:12,198
Ah, yeah. I know, but sometimes
you gotta say "**** the rules," right?

1027
00:57:12,265 --> 00:57:14,634
-[sighs]
-I mean, that's why I came to Moscow.

1028
00:57:14,701 --> 00:57:18,705
And I think
that's why you invited me here tonight.

[Alexey] This is the place.

1031
00:57:24,911 --> 00:57:27,180
More of what you had in mind, Henk, yes?

1032
00:57:27,247 --> 00:57:28,648
-[chattering]
-Yeah!

1033
00:57:30,116 --> 00:57:32,252
Aw. Thank you.

1034

-Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you.

Do you know these people?

1037
00:57:39,759 --> 00:57:41,561
I work with a few of them, yes.

1038
00:57:41,661 --> 00:57:43,530
Hmm. Love the music.

1039
00:57:43,596 --> 00:57:49,769
Look, personally, I-- I prefer, uh,
Mozart and, um, Russian folk songs.

1040
00:57:49,869 --> 00:57:51,705

I'm trying to help you guys.
Why am I a threat?

1109
01:02:44,164 --> 01:02:48,134
You're a foreigner
attempting to buy Russian property.

1110
01:02:48,868 --> 01:02:51,938
To many, that is tantamount
to-- to treason.

1111
01:02:52,380 --> 01:02:53,540
It's just a video game.

1112
01:02:54,207 --> 01:02:55,575
To you, yes.

1113
01:02:55,675 --> 01:02:59,412
But to the men in power
it is a slippery slope

1114
01:02:59,512 --> 01:03:03,616
from selling one game to selling
all of Russia to the highest bidder.

1115
01:03:05,518 --> 01:03:10,190
Henk, don't sacrifice everything for this.

1116

being out so late last night.

Well, that's a good job.

Steady salary.

1132
01:04:07,313 --> 01:04:11,751
Has your father ever told you
what happened to his father?

Uh-- No?

1134
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:16,256
Well, he should.

and we did a rehearsal today

1148

like an angel and…

-[Maya continues]
-[in English] Maya, honey.

01:04:59,650 --> 01:05:00,834
I promise I'll be home for your concert,

01:05:12,245 --> 01:05:14,314
have him fax ELORG
my contract with Mirrorsoft,

1157
01:05:14,381 --> 01:05:17,217
and have him draft up
a new contract for handheld Tetris.

1158
01:05:17,317 --> 01:05:23,223
I'll fill in the details.
ELORG's number is +7 495 442 481.

-Taxi!

1169
01:06:05,899 --> 01:06:07,734
Why is Henk Rogers here, hmm?

1170
01:06:07,834 --> 01:06:11,104
Are you trying to, uh,
play us off against each other, hmm?

1171
01:06:11,204 --> 01:06:13,730
'Cause if you're trying to screw with me,
I swear--

1172
01:06:13,139 --> 01:06:16,576
Mr. Stein,
have you read your revised contract?

1173
01:06:16,676 --> 01:06:17,944
Yes.

1174
01:06:18,511 --> 01:06:20,246
Yes, I did. It-- It's not fair.

1175
01:06:20,313 --> 01:06:22,882
You-- You-- You charge
far too much for arcade rights.

1176
01:06:22,949 --> 01:06:26,860
And why should I sign
a new contract for the PC rights

1177
01:06:26,152 --> 01:06:28,321
that I already own fair and square, hmm?

1178
01:06:28,421 --> 01:06:30,223
Oh, okay, okay. Huh?

1179
01:06:30,990 --> 01:06:34,461
I'll-- I'll sign, but then we discuss
the handheld rights, yes?

1180
01:06:35,995 --> 01:06:37,464
[groans]

1181
01:06:38,164 --> 01:06:40,133
Okay, handheld. How much?

1182
01:06:40,900 --> 01:06:42,135
-We'll come back.
-No.

1183
01:06:42,235 --> 01:06:44,137
No, no. No!

1184
01:06:47,607 --> 01:06:50,910
Mr. Belikov, with all due respect,
what the hell is going on?

1185
01:06:51,878 --> 01:06:54,647
First, one of your cronies threatens me,

1186
01:06:54,748 --> 01:06:57,617
then you threaten my wife in Japan,

1187
01:06:57,717 --> 01:06:59,185
my hotel room gets trashed,

1188
01:06:59,285 --> 01:07:02,288
and now I find out
you're negotiating with Robert Stein.

1189
01:07:02,355 --> 01:07:04,290
After all he's done to you?

1190
01:07:04,357 --> 01:07:06,359
This, this is insane.

1191
01:07:06,459 --> 01:07:08,428
I am the only honest guy here!

1192
01:07:09,162 --> 01:07:10,196
[in Russian] You're all swindlers.

1193
01:07:10,930 --> 01:07:13,990
You're all here just for the money.

1194
01:07:13,133 --> 01:07:15,668
[in English] What? I don't speak Russian.
I don't have my translator.

1195
01:07:15,769 --> 01:07:17,203
And where's Alexey?

1196
01:07:17,771 --> 01:07:20,106
You guys, you think that I'm the enemy?

1197
01:07:20,907 --> 01:07:23,343
You're wrong.
This isn't about the money anymore.

1198
01:07:23,443 --> 01:07:26,646
It's about giving Alexey his due
and showing the world

1199
01:07:26,746 --> 01:07:30,383
the Soviet Union is about more
than just missiles and military might.

1200
01:07:31,284 --> 01:07:32,452
[laughs]

1201
01:07:32,519 --> 01:07:35,550
[laughs]

1202
01:07:35,922 --> 01:07:37,957
[laughing]

1203
01:07:43,163 --> 01:07:45,331
-[mumbling]
-What is that?

1204
01:07:45,398 --> 01:07:47,467
Your contract with Mirrorsoft.

1205
01:07:47,534 --> 01:07:50,770
Proving that I didn't steal from you.

1206
01:07:51,338 --> 01:07:53,473
And behind that is my new offer.

1207
01:07:53,540 --> 01:07:55,375
There are no numbers on it.

1208
01:07:56,409 --> 01:08:03,416
$25,000, up-front, for worldwide handheld
rights, plus 25 cents per unit sold.

1209
01:08:04,117 --> 01:08:05,485
$25,000?

1210
01:08:08,321 --> 01:08:10,156
[laughs] Why so little?

1211
01:08:10,724 --> 01:08:13,960
Because, to be honest,
I got no money left.

1212
01:08:15,895 --> 01:08:18,865
But the royalties I'm offering
are more than fair.

1213
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:24,571
[Belikov sighs]

1214
01:08:25,839 --> 01:08:28,174
How many games you expect to sell?

1215
01:08:28,241 --> 01:08:31,378
Conservative estimate, a million.

1216
01:08:32,712 --> 01:08:36,160
My estimate is 20 million.

1217
01:08:37,584 --> 01:08:40,387
That means you get five million dollars.

1218
01:08:43,757 --> 01:08:48,610
Uh-- Oh, come on.
You guys are the kings of cliff-hangers!

1219
01:08:48,161 --> 01:08:49,996
[Valentin speaking Russian]

1220
01:08:52,165 --> 01:08:53,800
A word, please.

1221
01:08:56,569 --> 01:08:59,720
I have been following your negotiations.

1222
01:08:59,873 --> 01:09:01,608
You've done a masterful job.

1223
01:09:02,242 --> 01:09:06,279
It's all for the Soviet Union,
Comrade Trifonov.

1224
01:09:06,546 --> 01:09:07,847
Good.

1225
01:09:08,140 --> 01:09:12,152
Because the state has decided
that Tetris will go to Mirrorsoft.

1226
01:09:19,726 --> 01:09:20,593
Good.

1227
01:09:21,428 --> 01:09:22,262
Let's go.

1228
01:09:25,665 --> 01:09:27,333
[in English] Ah, Mr. Be-- Oh, for ****--

1229
01:09:27,434 --> 01:09:28,835
What's he doing here?

1230
01:09:29,335 --> 01:09:32,105
Foreign Trade is my department,
Mr. Maxwell.

1231
01:09:32,205 --> 01:09:33,640
[sighs] Okay.

1232
01:09:33,740 --> 01:09:35,909
[clears throat] Mr. Belikov,

1233
01:09:35,975 --> 01:09:38,211
Mirrorsoft is prepared to offer
the Russian publishing rights

1234
01:09:38,278 --> 01:09:41,281
to its Collier's Encyclopedias,
worth two million dollars,

1235
01:09:41,348 --> 01:09:43,950
in exchange for worldwide handheld Tetris.

1236
01:09:44,500 --> 01:09:46,219
-And royalties?
-Oh, for Christ's sake, Mr. Belikov.

1237
01:09:46,286 --> 01:09:48,121
I just offered you the deal of a lifetime.

1238
01:09:48,221 --> 01:09:49,422
[clears throat]

1239
01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:59,265
[sighs] We are prepared to give you deal,
Mr. Maxwell, but times…

1240
01:09:59,332 --> 01:10:01,134
[chuckles] …times are changing.

1241
01:10:02,100 --> 01:10:04,671
Uh, we are held accountable
for our decisions.

1242
01:10:04,771 --> 01:10:08,800
You see, choosing the offer
with no real money looks

1243
01:10:08,908 --> 01:10:09,909
suspicious.

1244
01:10:10,777 --> 01:10:12,780
[scoffs]

1245
01:10:12,145 --> 01:10:13,146
Okay.

1246
01:10:13,246 --> 01:10:15,348
Fine, fine.

1247
01:10:15,448 --> 01:10:17,951
All expenditures have to be approved
by my board, mind you.

1248
01:10:18,180 --> 01:10:22,355
But, unofficially, I can offer ELORG
one million US dollars by the end of week.

1249
01:10:23,390 --> 01:10:25,825
-And royalties?
-Ah, Jesus ****ing Christ.

1250
01:10:25,925 --> 01:10:26,793
[in Russian] That's enough.

1251
01:10:28,528 --> 01:10:30,300
[in English] What did he say?

1252
01:10:31,464 --> 01:10:32,499
[sighs]

1253
01:10:38,438 --> 01:10:40,640
[Belikov] One million dollars…

1254
01:10:42,442 --> 01:10:44,310
added to letter of intent.

1255
01:10:44,377 --> 01:10:48,181
We promise Mirrorsoft
worldwide handheld Tetris,

1256
01:10:48,281 --> 01:10:51,484
if you wire us
one million dollars in one week.

1257
01:10:52,919 --> 01:10:54,688
Well, gentlemen,

1258
01:10:55,355 --> 01:10:57,323
looks like we, uh… [chuckles]

1259
01:10:57,390 --> 01:10:58,725
…we have ourselves a deal.

1260
01:11:01,610 --> 01:11:02,495
[Kevin grunts]

1261
01:11:03,530 --> 01:11:05,310
Let me walk you out.

1262
01:11:05,131 --> 01:11:06,766
-But we're not finished--
-Now!

1263
01:11:12,505 --> 01:11:15,342
-Mr. Belikov, the exit is this way.
-Shut up.

1264
01:11:23,483 --> 01:11:24,617
Is everything all right?

1265
01:11:26,319 --> 01:11:29,222
You have one week to make an offer
for worldwide handheld rights.

1266
01:11:29,322 --> 01:11:30,523
You have my offer.

1267
01:11:30,590 --> 01:11:32,525
I'm ready to sign now. What is going on?

1268
01:11:32,592 --> 01:11:35,395
You must sign a letter of intent first.
It's protocol.

1269
01:11:35,495 --> 01:11:38,310
-Are you lying to me, Belikov?
-Listen.

1270
01:11:38,980 --> 01:11:41,768
If you knew the risk I'm taking right now,
you wouldn't ask that.

1271
01:11:42,802 --> 01:11:43,937
Please sign.

1272
01:11:44,571 --> 01:11:45,605
Please.

1273
01:11:48,541 --> 01:11:50,443
[shutter clicking]

1274
01:11:50,543 --> 01:11:52,780
And one more thing.

1275
01:11:52,879 --> 01:11:57,250
If you would like to make an offer
for worldwide video game rights,

1276
01:11:58,840 --> 01:11:59,552
ELORG is open to deal.

1277
01:11:59,619 --> 01:12:01,588
What?
Stein has the worldwide video game rights.

1278
01:12:01,654 --> 01:12:02,655
No, he doesn't.

1279
01:12:03,456 --> 01:12:05,925
I redefined "computer."

1280
01:12:07,930 --> 01:12:11,131
Stein needed arcade rights,
so, he signed a new contract.

1281
01:12:11,931 --> 01:12:13,666
Why are you helping me, Belikov?

1282
01:12:13,767 --> 01:12:16,536
I'm doing what is the best for my country.

1283
01:12:17,804 --> 01:12:23,376
Go home, Henk Rogers, and come back with
your Nintendo crew to make a real offer.

1284
01:12:33,586 --> 01:12:34,788
Where were you today?

1285
01:12:35,855 --> 01:12:36,990
Doesn't matter.

1286
01:12:37,557 --> 01:12:38,792
We did it.

1287
01:12:38,858 --> 01:12:42,429
Handheld rights and they're promising
worldwide video game rights too.

1288
01:12:45,265 --> 01:12:46,299
Get in.

1289
01:12:46,399 --> 01:12:47,667
-[door slams]
-[engine starts]

1290
01:12:47,767 --> 01:12:48,768
[in Russian] Dzerzhinsky Square.

1291
01:12:50,503 --> 01:12:54,174
[engine revving]

1292
01:12:55,308 --> 01:12:56,943
[in English] You don't have your car?

1293
01:12:58,478 --> 01:13:00,180
I don't want to be followed.

1294
01:13:11,570 --> 01:13:15,829
When I was a boy, uh, my father was
professor at Moscow University.

1295
01:13:15,895 --> 01:13:20,330
And in 1965, a colleague of his
was jailed for selling his book abroad.

1296
01:13:20,633 --> 01:13:22,202
Just for selling his book?

1297
01:13:23,169 --> 01:13:24,504
Yes.

1298
01:13:24,604 --> 01:13:27,340
And my father signed, uh,
a letter of protest,

1299
01:13:27,440 --> 01:13:29,876
which was the right thing to do.

1300
01:13:30,777 --> 01:13:33,790
But the Soviet retribution was swift.

1301
01:13:33,813 --> 01:13:39,219
He lost his professorship and was barred
from holding a real job ever again,

1302
01:13:39,319 --> 01:13:40,553
and it ruined him.

1303
01:13:40,653 --> 01:13:42,889
And it ruined my family.

1304
01:13:43,390 --> 01:13:48,561
And I promised myself that I would never
put my kids through that kind of hell.

1305
01:13:49,796 --> 01:13:51,498
But they are doing it again, Henk.

1306
01:13:52,465 --> 01:13:53,800
And this time, to me.

1307
01:13:55,402 --> 01:13:57,637
-[shouting]
-[car approaching]

1308
01:14:00,340 --> 01:14:03,430
-[brakes squeal]
-[engine turns off]

1309
01:14:03,910 --> 01:14:05,679
Do you know what that building is?

1310
01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:10,950
Well, you should, because they've been
watching your every move.

1311
01:14:14,387 --> 01:14:15,388
Wait. That's--

1312
01:14:15,488 --> 01:14:17,924
That's the member of the Communist Party
at Central Committee,

1313
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,694
one of the most powerful men in USSR.

1314
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:22,280
Speaking to his agent.

1315
01:14:22,729 --> 01:14:23,963
[Henk] KGB?

1316
01:14:25,532 --> 01:14:26,733
Sasha is KGB?

1317
01:14:28,268 --> 01:14:29,369
But she's--

1318
01:14:30,870 --> 01:14:31,871
Why?

1319
01:14:32,672 --> 01:14:33,973
Because you are a threat.

1320
01:14:34,740 --> 01:14:38,780
You represent everything our country
has fought against for 80 years.

1321
01:14:40,146 --> 01:14:42,749
And he just found out
that ELORG promised you Tetris.

1322
01:14:44,150 --> 01:14:45,985
[in Russian] Airport right away!

1323
01:14:46,860 --> 01:14:47,520
[engine starts]

1324
01:14:49,255 --> 01:14:53,159
[Maya singing in Japanese]

1325
01:14:55,328 --> 01:14:56,463
[Henk] Tell them it's important.

1326
01:14:56,563 --> 01:14:59,733
It's about Tetris. I'm laid over in Korea,
but only for an hour.

1327
01:14:59,799 --> 01:15:02,168
Sorry, Mr. Rogers. They're in a meeting.

1328
01:15:02,268 --> 01:15:03,403
Can I take a message?

1329
01:15:03,470 --> 01:15:05,605
[Henk] Uh, no, uh--
I wanna tell them myself.

1330
01:15:05,705 --> 01:15:07,173
I'll call when I'm home. Thanks.

1331
01:15:07,273 --> 01:15:09,275
[singing continues]

1332
01:15:09,342 --> 01:15:12,979
Gentlemen. Robert Maxwell,
Chairman of the Mirror Group. Pleasure.

1333
01:15:13,790 --> 01:15:14,481
Minoru Arakawa.

1334
01:15:14,581 --> 01:15:17,650
This is Howard Lincoln,
my senior VP and chief legal counsel.

1335
01:15:17,751 --> 01:15:19,285
How can we help you today, sir?

1336
01:15:19,352 --> 01:15:21,921
[singing continues]

1337
01:15:21,988 --> 01:15:24,357
I think I've got something you want.

1338
01:15:24,457 --> 01:15:26,793
Kevin, are you there?

1339
01:15:26,893 --> 01:15:28,128
Yes.

1340
01:15:28,194 --> 01:15:29,763
It's good news, gentlemen.

1341
01:15:31,798 --> 01:15:35,435
[audience applauding]

1342
01:15:41,307 --> 01:15:44,577
[fax machine whirs, beeps]

1343
01:15:46,379 --> 01:15:48,948
[Valentin, in Russian]
You see Nikolai Evgenievich…

1344
01:15:48,982 --> 01:15:52,180
Unlike you, I put our country first.

1345
01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:57,570
Don't hurt him too much.
He still has work to do.

1346
01:15:59,250 --> 01:16:00,827
[grunting, groaning]

1347
01:16:00,927 --> 01:16:02,929
-[shouting in Russian]
-[thudding]

1348
01:16:06,366 --> 01:16:08,334
[in English] Oh, shit.

1349
01:16:10,537 --> 01:16:11,538
Maya?

1350
01:16:20,460 --> 01:16:22,682
Jesus. No.

1351
01:16:22,782 --> 01:16:24,250
[whirring]

1352
01:16:25,685 --> 01:16:26,953
[gasps]

1353
01:16:29,589 --> 01:16:31,224
[fax machine beeps]

1354
01:16:34,327 --> 01:16:36,596
-Oh, no.
-[phone ringing]

1355
01:16:40,500 --> 01:16:42,836
[ringing continues]

1356
01:16:44,137 --> 01:16:46,806
-Hello?
-Henk, it's Howard Lincoln.

1357
01:16:46,873 --> 01:16:49,876
Listen, I thought I should call you
and tell you in person.

1358
01:16:49,976 --> 01:16:51,578
I-- I don-- I don't, um--

1359
01:16:51,678 --> 01:16:54,347
I'm sorry, you didn't get the, uh,
Game Boy rights for Tetris.

1360
01:16:54,414 --> 01:16:55,682
We gotta go with Mirrorsoft.

1361
01:16:55,749 --> 01:16:57,350
You understand, right?

1362
01:16:58,918 --> 01:17:01,221
-Hello?
-They're lying, Howard. Everybody's lying.

1363
01:17:01,287 --> 01:17:03,223
They're blackmailing me
so I keep my mouth shut.

1364
01:17:03,289 --> 01:17:06,920
But I'm telling you, Mirrorsoft
doesn't even have the video game rights--

1365
01:17:06,192 --> 01:17:10,263
Henk, relax. We just got a fax from ELORG
confirming Mirrorsoft's license.

1366
01:17:10,363 --> 01:17:11,731
It's legit, okay?

1367
01:17:12,465 --> 01:17:14,000
We'll find something else to work on.

1368
01:17:14,670 --> 01:17:16,302
-[stammers] Wait, wait.
-[Howard] All right? Bye-bye.

1369
01:17:16,403 --> 01:17:17,637
[line disconnects]

1370
01:17:25,445 --> 01:17:26,546
[thudding]

1371
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:31,251
[Akemi] You done?

1372
01:17:35,622 --> 01:17:36,623
[sighs]

1373
01:17:38,580 --> 01:17:40,600
The Maxwells screwed me, Akemi.
They took everything.

1374
01:17:40,126 --> 01:17:42,862
You missed your daughter's concert.

1375
01:17:45,331 --> 01:17:46,933
Did you hear what I just said?

1376
01:17:48,802 --> 01:17:50,937
[in Japanese]
Did you hear what I just said?

1377
01:17:50,970 --> 01:17:53,273
[in English] We've got nothing left.

1378
01:17:53,340 --> 01:17:54,441
Nothing!

1379
01:17:54,507 --> 01:17:57,644
It's over, and you're giving me shit
about missing a concert?

1380
01:17:59,212 --> 01:18:00,780
M-- Maya! Sh--

1381
01:18:02,248 --> 01:18:04,984
[in Japanese] You selfish prick

1382
01:18:05,585 --> 01:18:08,288
[in English] Honey? [breathes shakily]

1383
01:18:08,355 --> 01:18:09,589
It's fine.

1384
01:18:10,256 --> 01:18:11,591
Everything is gonna be fine.

1385
01:18:13,159 --> 01:18:15,595
Because if it isn't,
then we don't have handheld rights,

1386
01:18:15,662 --> 01:18:17,130
and we don't have console rights.

1387
01:18:17,230 --> 01:18:19,990
And Nintendo will sue us for fraud,

1388
01:18:19,165 --> 01:18:22,302
and we'll lose the business,
and they'll probably take our house.

1389
01:18:22,369 --> 01:18:25,338
And I am trying
to keep it together, Akemi, really I am.

1390
01:18:25,438 --> 01:18:26,973
But I do not have a backup plan.

1391
01:18:27,730 --> 01:18:28,740
[breathes shakily]

1392
01:18:31,444 --> 01:18:33,780
I just-- I just need you to understand

1393
01:18:33,847 --> 01:18:36,716
that I did this because
I am trying to build a life for us.

1394
01:18:37,984 --> 01:18:40,687
We had a life.

1395
01:18:41,654 --> 01:18:42,856
[sighs]

1396
01:18:50,130 --> 01:18:51,831
[dog barking]

1397
01:19:00,340 --> 01:19:02,542
[in Russian] Can I come in?

1398
01:19:04,644 --> 01:19:06,846
I devoted my life to this country,

1399
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:08,748
the great idea of it.

1400
01:19:09,916 --> 01:19:10,750
But…

1401
01:19:11,484 --> 01:19:13,453
I can't do it…

1402
01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,923
…This country doesn't exist any more.

1403
01:19:18,525 --> 01:19:21,761
We're turning into a nation of thieves.

1404
01:19:27,500 --> 01:19:29,769
Tetris is going to Mirrorsoft.

1405
01:19:30,170 --> 01:19:34,140
And I will be removed from my position
at ELORG once the deal is signed.

1406
01:19:36,176 --> 01:19:38,478
But you can still make this right.

1407
01:19:44,551 --> 01:19:46,553
Get this to Henk Rogers.

1408
01:19:48,540 --> 01:19:50,230
He'll know what to do.

1409
01:19:51,858 --> 01:19:53,793

1410
01:19:55,695 --> 01:19:57,764
[both speaking Russian]

1411
01:20:22,622 --> 01:20:23,456
Hi

1412
01:20:24,290 --> 01:20:25,125
Hi

1413
01:20:25,892 --> 01:20:26,726
[gasps] Fire!

1414
01:20:35,935 --> 01:20:37,404
[fax machine beeping]

1415
01:20:37,971 --> 01:20:39,773
[fire alarm ringing]

1416
01:20:53,987 --> 01:20:54,854
What are you doing back there?

1417
01:21:00,660 --> 01:21:02,462
[fire alarm continues]

1418
01:21:05,565 --> 01:21:08,568
[video game chirping]

1419
01:21:15,141 --> 01:21:16,443
[fax machine rings]

1420
01:21:16,509 --> 01:21:17,644
[fax machine prints]

1421
01:21:42,369 --> 01:21:44,204
[chattering]

1422
01:21:48,908 --> 01:21:52,212
[shredders whirring]

1423
01:21:52,312 --> 01:21:54,481
[in English] Kevin, my boy. Okay, get out.

1424
01:21:54,547 --> 01:21:55,782
What the hell is going on?

1425
01:21:55,849 --> 01:21:57,350
Spring cleaning, is all.

1426
01:21:57,450 --> 01:22:01,621
Shredding redundant balance sheets
we had made for our auditors.

1427
01:22:01,688 --> 01:22:03,857
How are you? Congratulations on Tetris.

1428
01:22:03,923 --> 01:22:06,326
I need one million US dollars,
and accounting's saying we don't have it.

1429
01:22:06,393 --> 01:22:09,529
-Why do you need a million dollars?
-Why do I… [clicks tongue] For Tetris.

1430
01:22:09,629 --> 01:22:12,499
Son, we don't have to pay the Russians
anything.

1431
01:22:12,565 --> 01:22:14,501
We're giving them the encyclopedias.

1432
01:22:14,567 --> 01:22:17,470
No, no, no. It was a competitive bid,
and that's the deal I struck.

1433
01:22:17,537 --> 01:22:20,407
The deal is,
I am friends with Mikhail Gorbachev.

1434
01:22:20,507 --> 01:22:22,375
Stop with your damn "we're friends" bit!

1435
01:22:22,475 --> 01:22:24,770
The Soviet Union is about to implode.

1436
01:22:24,177 --> 01:22:27,480
Everyone's snatching up what they can,
and Gorbachev can't do a thing about it!

1437
01:22:27,547 --> 01:22:30,550
Calm down, Kevin. Don't have a hissy fit.
You're not a child.

1438
01:22:32,185 --> 01:22:33,720
Then stop treating me like one.

1439
01:22:35,689 --> 01:22:38,558
-We don't have the money, do we?
-Of course we do.

1440
01:22:38,658 --> 01:22:40,126
-But it's tied up.
-Okay.

1441
01:22:40,226 --> 01:22:42,595
-I'll call the bank. I'll get a loan.
-No. I wouldn't do that.

1442
01:22:42,696 --> 01:22:44,397
Jesus Christ, Father.
You said we were fine.

1443
01:22:44,497 --> 01:22:46,533
We are fine.

1444
01:22:47,330 --> 01:22:51,137
Once we secure Tetris from the Russians
and sign with Nintendo,

1445
01:22:51,237 --> 01:22:52,706
-we'll be in the black.
-Okay.

1446
01:22:52,772 --> 01:22:55,675
But who's going to convince the Russians
to give us Tetris for no money?

1447
01:22:55,742 --> 01:22:56,743
Leave it to me.

1448
01:22:56,843 --> 01:22:58,440
Good job, Son.

1449
01:23:06,453 --> 01:23:09,689
Let's sue the **** out of them.
This is the lowest of the low.

1450
01:23:09,756 --> 01:23:11,291
But that doesn't solve the problem.

1451
01:23:11,391 --> 01:23:13,259
We can send a cease and desist.

1452
01:23:13,326 --> 01:23:15,261
Sir. Excuse me, sir. You can't--

1453
01:23:15,328 --> 01:23:17,564
-Sir, they're in a meeting.
-Well, this meeting is over.

1454
01:23:17,630 --> 01:23:19,799
-[Howard] What the hell is he doing here?
-Read this.

1455
01:23:19,899 --> 01:23:21,868
-Henk, we don't have time.
-Read it!

1456
01:23:25,472 --> 01:23:27,907
-What the **** is that?
-[Howard] Atari stole our patent.

1457
01:23:27,974 --> 01:23:31,311
They hacked the NES, now manufacturing
and selling our cartridges.

1458
01:23:31,411 --> 01:23:32,645
Guess what their first game is.

1459
01:23:32,746 --> 01:23:35,448
-They do not have the rights.
-They do in America. I checked.

1460
01:23:35,548 --> 01:23:37,250
-No, they don't.
-[Howard] What?

1461
01:23:37,317 --> 01:23:38,785
Who the hell is "A"?

1462
01:23:38,885 --> 01:23:40,420
Alexey Pajitnov.

1463
01:23:41,354 --> 01:23:43,289
"Henk, ELORG and Mirrorsoft lie.

1464
01:23:43,356 --> 01:23:45,658
No rights for Tetris granted.

1465
01:23:45,759 --> 01:23:48,428
Come back and make offer ASAP."
What's he mean, "no rights?"

1466
01:23:48,495 --> 01:23:50,430
You're looking at Mirrorsoft's contract,

1467
01:23:50,497 --> 01:23:52,732
which is just a letter of intent
that expired yesterday.

1468
01:23:52,799 --> 01:23:54,300
-[Howard] So handheld rights are--
-Available.

1469
01:23:54,367 --> 01:23:55,835
-[Minoru] And video game?
-Available.

1470
01:23:55,935 --> 01:23:57,270
-Worldwide.
-But that means--

1471
01:23:57,337 --> 01:24:00,600
I don't have video game rights in Japan,
because Stein and Mirrorsoft

1472
01:24:00,106 --> 01:24:02,509
never had the right to sell them to me,
or to these guys.

1473
01:24:02,609 --> 01:24:04,778
Wait, you're telling me
Atari doesn't have Tetris in America?

1474
01:24:04,844 --> 01:24:07,781
I'm telling you
Atari doesn't have Tetris anywhere.

1475
01:24:14,220 --> 01:24:17,123
What makes you so sure
this Alexey character isn't lying?

1476
01:24:17,824 --> 01:24:20,827
Because he's the only one
who stands to gain nothing from this.

1477
01:24:23,329 --> 01:24:24,464
What do you need from us?

1478
01:24:24,531 --> 01:24:28,535
I need you and your checkbooks
to get on a plane with me to Moscow ASAP.

1479
01:24:29,602 --> 01:24:31,400
And tell nobody.

1480
01:24:31,710 --> 01:24:32,605

1483
01:25:02,135 --> 01:25:03,837
[in Russian] He's back.

1484
01:25:03,870 --> 01:25:05,405
And he brought friends.

MOSCOW COMPUTER SCIENCE CENTER

1486
01:25:10,977 --> 01:25:11,911
Hello

[dog barking in distance]

1488
01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:34,634
What are you doing?

1489
01:25:35,235 --> 01:25:36,536
What is going on?

1490
01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:41,700
Damn.

1491
01:25:45,478 --> 01:25:46,312
Stop.

1492
01:25:46,646 --> 01:25:48,140
What are you doing?

1493
01:25:51,117 --> 01:25:52,180
Sasha!

1494
01:25:52,850 --> 01:25:52,919
What is this?

1495
01:25:53,420 --> 01:25:54,888
You're moving.

1496
01:25:55,388 --> 01:25:59,225
Where? Why? This is my home!
This was my parents' home. You can't!

1497
01:25:59,259 --> 01:26:01,127
What's going on?

1498
01:26:02,395 --> 01:26:04,300
Your husband broke the law.

1499
01:26:05,498 --> 01:26:07,901
I got a call to say the boys
were sent home from school?

1500
01:26:07,967 --> 01:26:09,803
[child shouting]

1501
01:26:15,675 --> 01:26:17,143
Which will fall faster?

1502
01:26:17,610 --> 01:26:19,112
-Quick!
-Neither!

-Aha.
-[speaking Russian]

1505
01:26:27,220 --> 01:26:28,288
[Dmitri] Mama, papa!

1506
01:26:28,355 --> 01:26:32,459
We're studying gravity in school!
He's showing us an experiment.

1507
01:26:33,590 --> 01:26:34,600
That's right.

1508
01:26:34,127 --> 01:26:35,261
An 'experiment'.

1509
01:26:38,531 --> 01:26:40,100
Which one will fall faster? Quick!

1510
01:26:40,300 --> 01:26:42,502
-Chair?
-Mmm, mmm.

1511
01:26:42,602 --> 01:26:45,710
Ah, this is where gravity gets tricky.

1512
01:26:45,105 --> 01:26:47,674
The chair should fall faster
because it's heavier, right?

1513
01:26:47,841 --> 01:26:48,675
Yes

1514
01:26:49,309 --> 01:26:50,343
But it won't.

1515
01:26:50,443 --> 01:26:51,344
Listen,

01:26:56,149 --> 01:26:57,784

[dog barking]

1518
01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:02,288
gravity doesn't care

1519
01:27:02,655 --> 01:27:04,900
if you're as light as a coin

1520
01:27:04,124 --> 01:27:05,258
or as heavy as a…

1521
01:27:06,292 --> 01:27:07,293
Boy.

1522
01:27:08,461 --> 01:27:10,363
Everything falls at the same speed.

1523
01:27:11,398 --> 01:27:12,499
[Nina speaks Russian]

1524
01:27:12,565 --> 01:27:14,134
Boys. Go and help your mother pack.

1525
01:27:23,309 --> 01:27:25,211
Henk Rogers is back because of you.

1526
01:27:29,215 --> 01:27:31,651
Ruining your life was easy.

1527
01:27:32,585 --> 01:27:36,823
Cross me again
and you will no longer exist.

1528
01:27:40,660 --> 01:27:42,280
Just like your friend Henk.

1529
01:27:43,229 --> 01:27:44,230
[gasps]

1530
01:27:50,470 --> 01:27:53,740
[groaning]

1531
01:27:59,546 --> 01:28:00,547
[footsteps approaching]

1532
01:28:01,614 --> 01:28:02,716
[Henk, in English] Mr. Belikov.

1533
01:28:05,180 --> 01:28:06,860
Are you okay?

1534
01:28:07,420 --> 01:28:09,723
Sorry for my tardiness.

1535
01:28:17,364 --> 01:28:20,633
So, you want to see…
[clears throat] …new games.

1536
01:28:20,734 --> 01:28:23,269
No. We're here for Tetris.

1537
01:28:24,871 --> 01:28:30,110
But I already informed you via fax
that Tetris transaction is dead.

1538
01:28:31,770 --> 01:28:32,112
Uh-huh.

1539
01:28:32,712 --> 01:28:37,450
And I assume you gave Mirrorsoft
the same deal you gave me.

1540
01:28:37,550 --> 01:28:39,619
A week to make an offer
for Tetris handheld.

1541
01:28:39,719 --> 01:28:40,754
Ha-- Have they?

1542
01:28:42,722 --> 01:28:44,891
Didn't think so. Here. Here's our offer.

1543
01:28:46,259 --> 01:28:49,963
For video game and handheld Tetris.
Worldwide.

1544
01:28:50,630 --> 01:28:53,566
[Howard] The money's up-front. We'll cover
all marketing and manufacturing,

1545
01:28:53,633 --> 01:28:58,571
and give you 50 cents per unit sold
on both handheld and video games.

1546
01:29:01,574 --> 01:29:03,677
One dollar per unit sold.

1547
01:29:04,577 --> 01:29:07,130
Great. Let's sign, and we can go home.

1548
01:29:07,113 --> 01:29:08,148
No.

1549
01:29:10,583 --> 01:29:13,620
[in Russian] Please listen, I'm
negotiating what's best for our country.

1550
01:29:13,653 --> 01:29:18,491
Protection of the government's property
and decision making is our responsibility.

1551
01:29:21,461 --> 01:29:25,765
[in English] He says ELORG needs night
to go over contract.

1552
01:29:26,433 --> 01:29:27,767
It's protocol.

1553
01:29:30,403 --> 01:29:31,604
She is correct.

1554
01:29:32,572 --> 01:29:34,641
It is protocol.

1555
01:29:37,510 --> 01:29:39,879
Good. Time to go, gentlemen.

1556
01:29:40,480 --> 01:29:42,248
I have another appointment.

1557
01:29:42,315 --> 01:29:44,651
[footsteps departing]

1558
01:29:46,519 --> 01:29:48,588
Five million dollars?

1559
01:29:48,655 --> 01:29:51,157
And where is your money, Mr. Maxwell?

1560
01:29:51,257 --> 01:29:54,728
I am not going to match
five million ****ing dollars.

1561
01:29:54,828 --> 01:29:56,290
[Valentin] And you don't have to.

1562
01:29:56,129 --> 01:30:00,600
All you have to do is wire ELORG
the one million your son promised them.

1563
01:30:01,301 --> 01:30:02,902
Tetris is yours.

1564
01:30:03,636 --> 01:30:05,380
You have 24 hours.

1565
01:30:07,173 --> 01:30:09,809
[in Russian] Why is it so important
that the Maxwells win?

1566
01:30:12,779 --> 01:30:16,483
Isn't the offer with more money
better for the Soviet Union?

1567
01:30:16,549 --> 01:30:17,817
[lighter clicks]

1568
01:30:22,155 --> 01:30:25,859
I'll concern myself with the
fate of the Soviet Union.

1569
01:30:27,460 --> 01:30:30,196
You go and do your job.

1570
01:30:33,330 --> 01:30:34,200
Dismissed.

1571
01:30:39,839 --> 01:30:40,840
[scoffs]

1572
01:30:45,450 --> 01:30:47,347
-[Kevin, in English] Father! Father.
-Not right now.

1573
01:30:47,414 --> 01:30:49,649
Nintendo just offered the Russians
five million dollars

1574
01:30:49,716 --> 01:30:51,384
for worldwide video game
and handheld rights.

1575
01:30:51,484 --> 01:30:53,687
-I already know. Jo.
-[Jo] Yes.

1576
01:30:53,753 --> 01:30:54,754
Wait.

1577
01:30:54,854 --> 01:30:57,924
Did you say they offered on handheld
and video game rights?

1578
01:30:58,240 --> 01:30:59,250
-Yes.
-Impossible.

1579
01:30:59,920 --> 01:31:01,294
We already have
worldwide video game rights.

1580
01:31:01,394 --> 01:31:03,263
-We licensed them from--
-[Stein] Kevin!

1581
01:31:03,363 --> 01:31:04,564
-You son of a *****.
-[grunts]

1582
01:31:04,664 --> 01:31:06,433
-[people gasp]
-You were in Moscow.

1583
01:31:06,533 --> 01:31:08,680
You made a deal behind my back.

1584
01:31:08,134 --> 01:31:11,137
Got ELORG to change my contract,
cutting me out!

1585
01:31:11,237 --> 01:31:14,541
-Someone call security!
-And you, Robert,

1586
01:31:14,607 --> 01:31:17,577
I found Tetris for you
and you pay me no royalties!

1587
01:31:17,677 --> 01:31:21,881
And now, because of your greed,
the Russians erased us from the profits.

1588
01:31:21,948 --> 01:31:23,283
What are you talking about?

1589
01:31:23,883 --> 01:31:27,554
They redefined the word "computer"
in my new contract, huh?

1590
01:31:27,620 --> 01:31:30,724
Cutting me out of video games
so you can steal it!

1591
01:31:30,790 --> 01:31:33,126
We didn't sign
any new video game contracts.

1592
01:31:33,226 --> 01:31:35,261
[pants]

1593
01:31:35,328 --> 01:31:37,864
Oh, you ****ing fool!

1594
01:31:38,865 --> 01:31:40,567
I am a ****ing fool?

1595
01:31:41,167 --> 01:31:43,236
The bratty son of a billionaire

1596
01:31:43,303 --> 01:31:47,140
who's never done an honest day's work
in his life calls me a fool?

1597
01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:49,409
You self-entitled piece of… [screams]

1598
01:31:49,476 --> 01:31:50,710
-[gasps]
-[grunting, groaning]

1599
01:31:51,478 --> 01:31:52,979
[both grunting]

1600
01:31:55,482 --> 01:31:57,484
Come on, mate. Get off! [grunts]

1601
01:31:57,584 --> 01:31:59,152
Off! Off me!

1602
01:31:59,252 --> 01:32:00,320
Off! Off!

1603
01:32:00,420 --> 01:32:02,255
[screams, grunts]

1604
01:32:02,322 --> 01:32:04,290
You, all of you,

1605
01:32:04,357 --> 01:32:06,593
you're all working for thieves!

1606
01:32:06,659 --> 01:32:07,727
Huh?

1607
01:32:07,794 --> 01:32:09,162
Thieves!

1608
01:32:09,262 --> 01:32:12,432
Jo, have the jet ready in an hour.

1609
01:32:12,999 --> 01:32:14,467
I'm going to Moscow.

1610
01:32:14,567 --> 01:32:16,136
[people murmuring]

1611
01:32:16,202 --> 01:32:18,438
-[dog barking]
-[shouting in distance]

1612
01:32:49,536 --> 01:32:51,871
Mr. Maxwell. Welcome to--

1613
01:32:56,209 --> 01:32:57,811
****ing you again?

1614
01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:05,385
Ah, gentlemen, welcome.

1615
01:33:06,553 --> 01:33:11,991
Apologies, but I am gaining weight
and need new suit for today's celebration.

1616
01:33:12,580 --> 01:33:14,327
You look great, General Secretary.

1617
01:33:14,394 --> 01:33:17,197
-[scoffs] And you are bad liar, my friend.
-[Maxwell laughs]

1618
01:33:17,263 --> 01:33:18,832
How can I help you?

1619
01:33:18,898 --> 01:33:21,368
Unfortunately, this isn't a social call.

1620
01:33:22,350 --> 01:33:26,272
My son and I are here because
there is an American businessman in Moscow

1621
01:33:26,373 --> 01:33:28,708
who's been manipulating your bureaucrats

1622
01:33:28,808 --> 01:33:31,611
into giving him the rights
to a Russian video game

1623
01:33:31,711 --> 01:33:34,681
that my company already had a deal on.

1624
01:33:35,248 --> 01:33:40,587
In fact, he's just offered your people
five million US dollars.

1625
01:33:41,221 --> 01:33:42,222
And?

1626
01:33:42,288 --> 01:33:46,192
And if this deal goes through,
it will set a dangerous precedent.

1627
01:33:46,259 --> 01:33:47,293
And what is that?

1628
01:33:48,695 --> 01:33:51,264
That communism is dead.

1629
01:33:57,370 --> 01:33:59,939
So, you are here to save my country?

1630
01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:04,100
Once you let capitalists
through your gates, they will never leave.

1631
01:34:04,770 --> 01:34:05,612
And what are you?

1632
01:34:05,712 --> 01:34:08,848
As you said, I am your friend.

1633
01:34:08,915 --> 01:34:13,860
We are proposing a fair trade
where no money is exchanged.

1634
01:34:13,586 --> 01:34:17,290
You get the publishing rights
to our Collier's Encyclopedias,

1635
01:34:17,390 --> 01:34:19,592
and we get the game.

1636
01:34:19,659 --> 01:34:21,394
An exchange of information.

1637
01:34:21,461 --> 01:34:26,633
I appreciate your benevolence, Robert,
but, uh, my country is broken.

1638
01:34:27,267 --> 01:34:28,935
My people want freedom.

1639
01:34:29,350 --> 01:34:31,571
Freedom to vote, to choose their destiny.

1640
01:34:32,605 --> 01:34:36,476
Communism was never meant
to prevent freedom.

1641
01:34:36,576 --> 01:34:39,779
But, unfortunately,
human greed got in the way.

1642
01:34:41,247 --> 01:34:46,486
The world is changing, gentlemen,
and Soviet Union will not be left behind.

1643
01:34:47,821 --> 01:34:50,757
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have speech to prepare.

1644
01:34:52,992 --> 01:34:55,261
Would you like my advice?

1645
01:34:55,328 --> 01:35:00,660
Respectfully, Mr. Trifonov, we've got
this far without you, so do **** off.

1646
01:35:01,701 --> 01:35:03,937
Just get me Tetris.

1647
01:35:04,771 --> 01:35:09,642
[in Russian]
Get me everything you know on him.

1648
01:35:09,909 --> 01:35:11,378
The foreigner?

1649
01:35:11,945 --> 01:35:12,779
No.

1650
01:35:13,613 --> 01:35:15,482
The politician.

1651
01:35:15,548 --> 01:35:17,550
[marching music plays]

1652
01:35:45,478 --> 01:35:49,315
Comrade Gorbachev,
look at the respect they show you.

1653
01:35:49,883 --> 01:35:52,285
[chattering]

1654

[in English] Alexey.

1656
01:35:59,392 --> 01:36:01,361
[singsongy] Told you I'd be back.

1657
01:36:02,929 --> 01:36:05,465
-You shouldn't have come.
-What?

1658
01:36:06,132 --> 01:36:07,233
You're the reason I'm here.

1659
01:36:08,234 --> 01:36:09,402
You misinterpreted me.

1660
01:36:09,502 --> 01:36:10,837
[scoffs]

1661
01:36:10,904 --> 01:36:14,674
You literally said,
"Come back and make an offer ASAP."

1662
01:36:14,741 --> 01:36:17,510
I was wrong. You don't deserve it.

1663
01:36:18,211 --> 01:36:20,780
-Alexey, what's up? We're friends.
-We are not.

1664
01:36:21,514 --> 01:36:23,516
You used me to get what you want.

1665
01:36:23,583 --> 01:36:26,520
That is-- How could you say that?

1666
01:36:26,152 --> 01:36:27,754
I'm doing this for us.

1667
01:36:27,854 --> 01:36:29,589
You are doing it for you.

1668
01:36:30,900 --> 01:36:32,592
I don't stand to profit a penny from this.

1669
01:36:32,692 --> 01:36:33,927
I'll make sure you do.

1670
01:36:34,270 --> 01:36:36,796
-It's not gonna be eas--
-Stop making promises you cannot keep.

1671
01:36:39,966 --> 01:36:41,601
We come from different worlds.

1672
01:36:43,269 --> 01:36:46,239
You go back to yours,
and I'll return to mine.

1673

[Gorbachev, in Russian]
"70 years from our glorious revolution"

1674
01:36:59,219 --> 01:37:01,788
This is a time of change…

1675
01:37:03,390 --> 01:37:06,760
But I am confident the USSR…

1676
01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:08,561
Henk Rogers' team are heading to ELORG.

1677
01:37:09,763 --> 01:37:13,233
[Gorbachev]
Will come out of it stronger than ever.

Don't let these capitalists get to ELORG!

Repeat. All agents to ELORG.

1686
01:37:42,962 --> 01:37:45,165
[in English] This is not a counteroffer.

1687
01:37:45,265 --> 01:37:49,350
Correct.
It is our first offer and final offer.

Our IP for your IP.

1689
01:37:51,771 --> 01:37:53,940
And we'll be taking back
our video game rights too.

-What?
-The cavalry is coming, boys.

1695
01:38:11,570 --> 01:38:15,995
Our agreement guarantees us Tetris
if we make a counteroffer,

1696
01:38:16,620 --> 01:38:17,297
which we just did.

1697
01:38:17,364 --> 01:38:19,466
Depending on
payment of one million dollars.

-**** you. Sign the deal.
-Honor the contract.

1699

You have less than one minute
before heads roll.

1700
01:38:24,971 --> 01:38:27,730
Mr. Belikov,
do not fall for his shit. Every--

1701
01:38:27,173 --> 01:38:29,750
Father, just pay him the pity money.

1702
01:38:32,612 --> 01:38:34,481
You don't have the money.

1703
01:38:34,547 --> 01:38:37,500
That explains never paying any royalties.

1704
01:38:37,150 --> 01:38:39,185
-Father, what the **** is happening?
-Nothing.

1705
01:38:40,353 --> 01:38:43,230
It's an accounting quirk
to be resolved next quarter.

1706
01:38:43,890 --> 01:38:44,357
Meaning, you're bankrupt.

1707
01:38:44,457 --> 01:38:46,860
Enough! I could have you all arrested.

1708
01:38:46,926 --> 01:38:49,229
Can we get this done, please?

1709
01:38:49,329 --> 01:38:51,998

-What?
-With our deal.

1716
01:39:21,594 --> 01:39:24,970
Maxwell has no money.
He voided the contract.

1717
01:39:24,197 --> 01:39:25,565
I had no choice.

1718
01:39:25,665 --> 01:39:31,237
I run a billion-dollar corporation.
Of course I have money.

1719
01:39:31,304 --> 01:39:33,940
Just not at this exact moment.

1720
01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:35,141
What about my money?

1721
01:39:35,241 --> 01:39:36,543
What do you mean your money?

1722
01:39:36,609 --> 01:39:38,511
[Kevin] Yes, what do you mean your money?

1723
01:39:39,245 --> 01:39:40,714
Are you ****ing--

1724
01:39:42,480 --> 01:39:43,750
What, you bribed this piece of shit?

1725
01:39:43,850 --> 01:39:45,850
Behind my back?

1726
01:39:45,151 --> 01:39:47,320
Oh, shut up.

1727
01:39:47,420 --> 01:39:49,689
I was saving your ****, per usual.

You wanna play with the big boys, Son?

This is how the world works. Suck it up.

Where is my money, Robert?
