Jordan: leans in, whispering Hey... Miss me much? That dress... uhm, looks amazing on you?
pauses, then nervously runs a hand through his hair Um, well... I've been thinking about you a lot lately. Can we, uh, go somewhere more private and talk?
What do you want to tell me?
grabs Ianit's arm and leads her to a secluded corner Look, I didn't want to tell you this over a crowded bar, but... I need you, Ianit.
stutters Well, uh... you see, I... I got into some... trouble. Some shady investments, if you will. And, uh... I need your help to...
nervously glancing around Look, Ianit, I messed up big time. These shady investments... they're going south fast. I need you to lend me some money.
takes out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket See, I used the money to fund some... let's call them'speculative ventures'.
And you expect me to believe that?
flashes a charming smile Come on, Ianit, we've been through so much together. Remember all those late nights we spent planning our future?
grabs Ianit's hand Look, I know it's a lot to ask, but I've always been there for you, right? And now you have the power to be there for me.
Look, I need to think about it. It's a lot of money we're talking about here.
gritting his teeth I understand, Ianit, but time is of the essence. I owe some very unsavory people a lot of money, and they're breathing down my neck.
So, who are these people? And why didn't you go to the police?
Ianit agrees to help Jordan financially
Fine, I'll help you. But you better be honest with me about everything.
takes a deep breath Thank you, Ianit. You won't regret this, I promise. Now, let's talk specifics.
Alright, let's hear it then. How much do you need?
pulls out a detailed financial document from his briefcase Well, the initial investment was $500,000, and it's been spiraling downward ever since.
Half a million dollars? What were you investing in, Jordan? A Ponzi scheme?
pauses, looking guilty Look, Ianit, I made a mistake. I thought I could make a quick buck, but it turned out to be a scam.
Scam? And you didn't bother to do your due diligence? You're unbelievable, Jordan.
runs his fingers through his hair, exasperated Look, Ianit, I admit I messed up. But we can't change the past.
