Yes, and this handsome devil over here, is creating a very promising gay dating site.
That's cool.
Yeah, but don't worry, he's not snobby about it.
He's actually pretty boring.
I don't mean that as an insult.
Those are his words.
Long-term relationship.
Doesn't smoke, doesn't drink.
And him and his man go to church every Sunday.
So loves Bible studies, right? Just a straight-up boring, ordinary guy, but obviously not straight.
Very gay, and also a Christian, right? RICHARD: Okay, so, that went well.
It started out a little weird, but things really picked up Why did you do that? - Why did you say that? - Say what? Richard, you just told a room full of tech people that I'm a [WHISPERS] Christian.
Oh.
Okay, but But you are, aren't you? [WHISPERS] Yes, but I told you that in confidence.
I said "between you and me.
" I'm not openly Christian.
[SIGHS] Thanks a lot, man.
You just outed me.
Oh, I'm sorry, Deedee.
I didn't Okay, um, should we hug? I can not make it weird this time.
I'm I'm sorry, Richard.
You know that my default position is blind support of whatever you do, but this was not your best moment.
Guys, it can't be that big of a deal, right? Why should it be? America loves Christians.
Muslims are the enemy.
Well, that's true in most of America, but not in Silicon Valley, sadly.
"Sadly"? You can be openly polyamorous.
And people here will call you brave.
You can put micro-doses of LSD in your cereal, and and people will call you a pioneer.
But the one thing you cannot be is a Christian.
I find their theology to be illegitimate, and it's clear that they are the source of the majority of the world's problems.
But, fuck, Richard, even I wouldn't just out a Christian like that.
Yeah, it was kinda fucked up.
Cool man, thanks.
[SOFTLY] Hey, I thought he wasn't supposed to chime in.
Yeah, he's not, but based on its merits, I'll allow that one.
Guys, [STAMMERS] come on.
It can't be that bad.
Richard! What the fuck did you do over there? So I just got off the phone with Colin over at K-Hole, and while he loves your tech, he's considering blowing up the deal.
What? Just because one of my CEOs is Christian? It freaks people out in the Valley! Okay, so what do you want me to do, Monica? You want me to drop Deedee just because he's Christian? The company's not Christian.
It's gay which is fine, right? Yeah! No, that That plays great.
Look, cutting all ties to Deedee and FirstSight will definitely send a strong message to Colin.
And it might be the only way.
Like killing somebody to prove you're not a narc, or showing a john your genitals to prove you're a legitimate male prostitute and not an undercover cop.
