Storyline

In his battle with Vice's agent-lover Amanda, who seems to overplay her hand for Arthur Gatoff's 'Bogota' movie, Ari uses the pardon on Yom Kippur and ex-alcoholic Nicky Rubinstein's family. Alas Ari's wife refuses to let him break Sabbath restrictions to help out Nicky. It gets the boys doubt if she sabotages it to keep him in California and counter Ari, so E gets Vince to turn to Ari themselves. Meanwhile Vince has taken the boys to the race track and bets on King's ransom, which loses them one. Yet Drama decided to buy the stallion, although no stud but infertile, and an unruly troublemaker on his hands. There are surprising consequences on both fronts.

Incredible episode. I didn't see that coming at all that he lost the movie. But the movies back next episode and he has the script. I cant believe they went into the synagogue during Yon Kupper. This was crazy and Amanda definitely was stalling. I don't want to believe it but its true. Looks like Vince is getting his old agent back. I also like the closing rap song which sets the perfect mood. One minute he has the movie then Amanda delays it by not accepting the co-producers word. I think the next episode is going to be a surprising thing for the season. This also was the only episode where no one was shown smoking illegal drugs.
