• Mack's Assistant : Tim Geithner's calling again.

  John Mack : Cover your ears. You tell Tim Geithner to fucking blow me. I'm trying to save my company.

• Timothy Geithner : The markets can't open Monday without a resolution of Morgan Stanley. We really need you to do a deal.

  Ben Bernanke : You need to call Jamie.

  John Mack : I called Jamie. He doesn't want us. There's too much overlap.

  Timothy Geithner : We've spoken to him. He'll do it.

  John Mack : For what, a dollar? Why would I do that? I got China Investment and Mitsubishi kicking my tires.

  Timothy Geithner : I know those guys. They're not gonna close a deal in time. We want you to call Jamie.

  John Mack : Let me ask you a question. 35,000 jobs just disappeared in this city between AIG, Lehman and Bear. We make a deal with Jamie, he'll fire 20,000 Morgan Stanley employees. You think that's good public policy?

  Ben Bernanke : John, we are looking at the whole system here.
