Spin looks gloriously ridiculous this morning in a skintight Ferrari cycling suit with a Cinzano cap.

The thing you gotta love about Spin is that he doesn’t even blink when Ben shows up with twenty mil in assets and cash and says it needs to go on the superfast cycle but come back as all cash, albeit squeaky clean.

An IRS sort of thing—Ben might have to have a nice explanation as to how he got the money, something other than he took it from the same people he’s about to give it to. He doesn’t say this exactly to Spin, but he doesn’t need to.

Spin sits down at his laptop and

—sells Ben’s house to one of Ben’s own companies, then to a resident of Vanuatu who doesn’t exist, then—

—off-loads a bunch of Ben’s stocks and bonds to a holding company Ben owns, then—

—creates a small ranch in Argentina, puts cattle on it, sells the cattle, and—

“Your cash is immaculate.”

Spin gets back on his bike.

Ben goes to see Jaime.
