He might have done the same deal. After all, they (Hooli, now the makers of the box) and their customers (a warehouse in the Twilight Zone where your tour guide is a depressingly sad and ultra-creepy ghost) would have to find some compromise in order to come to a deal of some kind. And compromise is the shared hypotenuse of the conjoined triangles of success.

What if the whole Hooli Box project was based off Gavin and Jack assuming they would acquire Pied Piper tech and they've straight up got nothing. Cue a full season of Hooli scrambling while Pied resist selling out.

If this series doesn't end with Richard being bought out for $10mil I'm gonna be very disappointed.

Knowing Mike Judge Richard will probably take up some other calling and finally be at peace. Fuckin' A.

They'll give all the guys a happy ending. This ain't a gritty realistic show with consequences and what not. The $10mil is probably the closest to a "bad ending" they will go. I would love it if he comes away with absolutely nothing though. That would be way funnier.

It's going to basically be the exact same as Office Space, with Richard working construction and Jian Yang accidentally owning Hooli or something.

It would be better for Monica to just get a cool background boyfriend that irritates the group when they stop by, like Gilfoyle's girlfriend.

Got a bit of a late start on the show, but I'm finally all caught up. As a software engineer at a large company in Silicon Valley, this show is way too accurate sometimes. In the episode with the ugly jacket, when Dinesh and Gilfoyle are deciding whether to go to the Philz on Middlefield or on Forest, it was a really surreal moment for me, because I've had to make that exact same decision before. My old office was in Palo Alto, roughly equidistant to those two locations. And the exterior and interior shots of the shop itself actually are of the Forest Ave location. Also, my coworker got one of those flippy ball thingies, and we started chanting "always blue" when he started playing with it. The irony of a bunch of Silicon Valley engineers mimicking what they saw on a show satirizing Silicon Valley engineers was not lost on me.

I got one of those flippy balls too, straight from China. Pretty much the flimsiest thing ever. Gifted it out right away.

Funny, because Just Mayo really is a good product. It's just the market for vegan mayo isn't really that huge.

"Facebook wants Snapchat. Snapchat won't sell. Facebook's Snapchat clone app doesn't take off. But Facebook then adds a Snapchat clone as a new feature of Instagram." I already seen so many personalities who use both Instragram and Snapchat admit they'll just migrate entirely to IG despite it being an obvious and cynical SC clone now because it's easier. The tech industry doesn't even hide how predictable it is.

I like Just Mayo and I'm not even a vegan/vegetarian. It didn't work in deviled eggs though. It was almost as bad as a deviled egg made with Miracle Whip. I guess it's just one of those things I can only eat if it's made with real mayonnaise.

Weren't they the ones who got in trouble with the FDA because you're not allowed to call something mayonaise unless it is made out of egg, oil, and vinegar?

Looks like Russ has a new car, with a new type of door, to buy: http://jalopnik.com/the-crazy-doors-on-the-rezvani-beast-are-the-first-trul-1789088283 I'm curious how that kind of door is demonstrated via moving one's arms...

I basically just marathoned this entire show. Gilfoyle and Dinesh are an incredible pair. Carla needs to come back. Also so does Fake Mark Cuban. I'm not sure how long they can keep the script of "there's an almost certain fatal crisis and theres a miraculous deus ex machina at the end" formula going, but its given 3 fantastic seasons. I'm happy Big Head is with the original team again.

I didn't know that Russ Hanneman = Mark Cuban until I read an article matching Silicon Valley characters with their real-life counterparts. Their quotes about where they were when they made their first billion are almost identical, which says a lot about Cuban.
