1 INSERT - TV COMMERCIAL - DAY 1
Over jungle sound effects, the CAMERA is low, moving
through brush from the POV of a stalking animal. As the
brush parts, revealing Wall Street and the New York Stock
Exchange, we HEAR the resonant voice of GENE HACKMAN.
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
The world of investing can be a
jungle.
1A WE SEE a charging, snorting BULL. 1A
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
Bulls.
1B WE SEE a ferocious, growling BEAR. 1B
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
Bears. Danger at every turn.
Pretentious CLASSICAL MUSIC kicks in.
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
That’s why we at Stratton Oakmont
pride ourselves on being the best.
1C-1D VARIOUS SHOTS -- a conservative young MAN reviews a stock 1C-1D
portfolio with a wealthy older COUPLE; a smiling young
WOMAN sits before a computer talking into a headset.
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
Trained professionals to guide you
through the financial wilderness.
1E WE SEE the Stratton “team” - an ethnically diverse group 1E
of ACTORS with their handsome, grey-templed “CHAIRMAN”.
GENE HACKMAN (V.O.)
Stratton Oakmont. Stabilty.
Integrity. Pride.
1F WE SEE a shot of the black glass Stratton Building, and: 1F
2 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - BULLPEN - DAY (FEB ‘95) 2
Absolute bedlam. 300 drunken STOCKBROKERS, most in their
early 20s, chant wildly as JORDAN BELFORT, handsome, 30,
stands beside a DWARF dressed in tights, cape & helmet.
JORDAN
Twenty five grand to the first
cocksucker to nail a bullseye!
The “bullseye” is a large dollar sign in the middle of a
giant velcro “dartboard”.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 2.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
Watch and learn, people!
The Brokers go apeshit as Jordan grabs the Dwarf by his
pants and collar. In the Crowd, cash flies as side bets
are made. Jordan winds up, aims for the “dartboard”.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
One. Two. Throw!!
The Brokers cheer, and as the screaming Dwarf takes
flight, hurtling toward camera, we FREEZE FRAME:
JORDAN (V.O.) (CONT’D)
My name is Jordan Belfort. No, not *
him, me. I’m a former member of *
the middle class raised by two
accountants in a tiny apartment in
Bayside, Queens.
3-3B A SERIES OF POLAROIDS -- (1969) 3-3B
*
Jordan, 7, smiles as he poses behind a lemonade stand,
his parents Max and Leah behind him; Jordan, 13, stands
holding a styrofoam cooler, selling ices on the beach;
Jordan, 18, smiles as he holds an Amway sales brochure.
JORDAN (V.O.)
The year I turned 26, I made 49
million dollars as the head of
my own brokerage firm--
4 EXT. LONG ISLAND EXPRESSWAY - DAY (FEB ‘95) 4
A CHERRY RED Ferrari Testarossa ZOOMS down the L.I.E.
JORDAN (V.O.)
--which really pissed me off
because it was three shy of a
million a week.
The Ferrari weaves in and out of traffic.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Hey, my Ferrari was white, like
Don Johnson’s in Miami Vice.
We see the same Ferrari, now in WHITE, as it zooms away,
a BLONDE head bobbing up and down in Jordan’s lap.
5 EXT. LONG ISLAND’S NORTH SHORE - DAY (FEB ‘95) 5
A twin-engine Bell Jet helicopter descends over a huge
mansion, with sparkling pool, tennis court and waterfall.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 3.
JORDAN (V.O.)
See that humongous estate down
there? That’s my house.
6 INT. JORDAN’S ESTATE - MASTER BEDROOM - DAY (FEB ‘95) 6
We see NAOMI, 24, blonde and gorgeous, a living wet dream
in LaPerla lingerie.
JORDAN (V.O.)
My wife, Naomi, the Duchess of Bay
Ridge, Brooklyn, a former model
and Miller Lite girl.
Naomi licks her lips; she’s incredibly, painfully hot.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Yeah, she was the one blowing me
in the Ferrari, so put your dick
back in your pants.
Over the following, WE SEE a quick
7-7C SERIES OF SHOTS 7-7C
All taken from TV; a mansion from Lifestyles of the Rich
and Famous; wealthy PEOPLE applauding at a polo match;
a yacht sailing crystal blue seas; Robert Wagner and
Stephanie Powers toasting with champagne on Hart to Hart.
JORDAN (V.O.)
In addition to Naomi and my two
perfect kids, I own a mansion,
private jet, six cars, three
horses, two vacation homes and
a 170 foot yacht.

Scene 2 - Jordan's Addictions
Sweaty, wild-eyed and naked, Jordan fucks an HISPANIC
HOOKER from behind.
JORDAN (V.O.)
I also gamble like a degenerate,
drink like a fish, fuck hookers
maybe five times a week and have
three different Federal agencies
looking to indict me.
He dismounts, snorts some coke through a straw, then uses
it to blow some into her asshole.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Oh yeah, and I love drugs.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 4.
Jordan looks up suddenly, paranoid, as if he’s hearing
voices.
9 INT. HELICOPTER - NIGHT (FEB ‘95) 9
Jordan, drooling and stoned out of his skull, wears a
rumpled custom-made business suit as he mans a set of
controls next to his frantic co-pilot, CAPTAIN DAVE.
CAPTAIN DAVE
Pull up! Jesus! We’re gonna
crash!!
Jordan’s head bobs as he pulls back on the stick.
The helicopter rises sharply, then levels out, hovering
30 feet above a huge mansion. Down below, through
Jordan’s hazy, DOUBLE VISIONED POV, we see a sparkling
pool, tennis court and waterfall.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Check this out -- despite my
completely fucked-up state, I
could fly straight while still
seeing two of everything.
He closes one eye; his POV sharpens. Putting pressure on
the stick, the helicopter descends slowly over the
driving range... then LURCHES and SLAMS to the ground.
JORDAN
(to Captain Dave)
Ya guzza git hazarous doozy pay,
buddy.
10 INT. JORDAN’S ESTATE - FRONT DOOR - DAY (FEB ‘95) 10
Morning. Sober now, impeccable in suit and tie, Jordan
heads for the door holding a glass of orange juice.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Yes, on a daily basis I take
enough drugs to sedate greater
Long Island.
11 EXT. JORDAN’S ESTATE - CONTINUOUS (FEB ‘95) 11
He pops two white pills, swigs some juice, then speaks
directly to the camera as he heads for a waiting limo.
JORDAN
I take Quaaludes for my back,
fifteen to twenty a day.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 5.
JORDAN (CONT'D)
I use Xanax to stay focused,
ambien to sleep, pot to mellow
out, cocaine to wake up and
morphine because it’s awesome.
12 EXT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - LONG ISLAND - DAY (FEB ‘95) 12
The limo pulls up to the black glass office building.
Jordan gets out, heads inside through a back door.
JORDAN
But of all the drugs under God’s
blue heaven, there’s one that’s my
absolute favorite.
13 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - JORDAN’S OFFICE - DAY (FEB ‘95) 13
Gadgets, computers, oxblood leather furniture. With
the DIN of the brokerage firm bleeding in, Jordan uses
a credit card to cut a line of coke on his desk. As he
peels a crisp $100 DOLLAR BILL off a wad, rolls it up:
JORDAN
Enough of this shit’ll make you
invincible, able to conquer the
world and eviscerate your enemies.
He SNARFS up the line, gestures to the cocaine.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
I’m not talking about this. I’m
talking about this.
(Jordan unfurls the
$100 with a SNAP)
Money is the oxygen of capitalism
and I wanna breathe more than any
other human being alive.
He crumbles it into a ball and tosses it into a corner,
where it comes to rest with two dozen others. Over his
back as we TRACK HIM out of his office toward what sounds
like the ROAR of a mob--
JORDAN (V.O.)
Money doesn’t just buy you a
better life -- better food, better
cars, better pussy -- it also
makes you a better person. You
can give generously to the church
of your choice or the political
party. You can save the fucking
spotted owl with money.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 6.
14 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - BULLPEN - DAY (FEB ‘95) 14
Arms akimbo, Jordan stands above the bullpen, a huge open
space with tightly packed rows of maple colored desks.
JORDAN (V.O.)
But most of all, in any country in
the world, money can buy you love.
Fuck the Beatles.
His 300 BROKERS, mostly young men with their jackets off,
scream wildly. They worship him.
JORDAN (V.O.)
With that in mind, at the tender
age of 22, after marrying my
girlfriend Teresa--
14A SCENES 14A - 18 OMITTED 14A
19 EXT. WALL STREET - DAY (MAY ‘87) 19
An express bus pull up -- its sign reads “Wall
Street”....
JORDAN (V.O.)
--I headed to the only place that
befit my high-minded ambitions...
Jordan emerges, kisses TERESA goodbye, then joins a sea
of Commuters heading to work.
JERRY FOGEL (PRE-LAP)
You are lower than fucking pond
scum.

Scene 3 - First day at work
Computers, telephones everywhere. At their desks, 45
shirt-sleeved BROKERS read their Wall St. Journals,
readying for war. Like an eager puppy, Jordan follows
broker JERRY FOGEL, 30, thick-lipped and bow-tied...
JERRY FOGEL
You got a problem with that?
(reads name tag)
Jordan?
JORDAN
Nope. No problem at all.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 7.
JERRY FOGEL
Your job is ‘connector’, which
means you'll be dialing the phone
over 500 times a day, trying to
‘connect’ me with business owners.
And till you pass your Series 7,
that’s all you’ll be doing. Sit.
Jordan takes a seat at the desk next to Fogel’s.
JERRY FOGEL (CONT’D)
Just so you know, last year I made
over 300k and the other guy you'll
be working for made a million.
JORDAN (V.O.)
A million dollars? I could only
imagine what a douchebag that guy
must be.
A manicured hand lands on Jordan’s shoulder. It’s MARK
HANNA, 30s, charismatic, movie-star handsome.
MARK HANNA
Jordan? Mark Hanna.
(re: Fogel)
Good, you’ve met Jerry. One of
the smartest guys in the office.
Who’s ever sucked a dog’s cock out
of loneliness.
Fogel’s smile turns to a frown. He hands Jordan a stack
of 3x5 index cards.
JERRY FOGEL
Smile and dial. And don’t pick
your fucking head up till one.
MARK HANNA
Don’t mind Jerry, his father raped
him as a child. Besides, I'm
senior broker here, he's a
worthless piker. I heard you
pitched stock at your job
interview.
JORDAN
Had to do something to stand out.
MARK HANNA
I fuckin’ love that! Let’s grab
lunch later. Windows good with
you?
JORDAN
Great. Yeah.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 8.
Hanna gives him a wink, looks at the clock on the giant
electronic stock ticker encircling the room -- 9:30 a.m.
MARK HANNA
Let’s fuck!!
RING!!! Absolute pandemonium at the BELL signalling the
opening of the stock market. Feet fly off desks; Brokers
and their Connectors dial phones like mad. The CAMERA
PUSHES IN on JORDAN, mesmerized as he takes in the ROAR.
BROKER #1
(to Broker #2)
Miniscribe's a fuckin’ steal!
Thirty eight bucks a share!
MARK HANNA
(into headset)
Your broker in West Virginia?
What are you buying, a coal mine?
It's the 80s, the game is high-
tech.
BROKER #2
(to Broker #3)
Fuckface! I got 50,000 July 50s!
JORDAN (V.O.)
You want to know what money sounds
like? Visit a trading floor on
Wall Street. Fuck this, shit
that. Cock, cunt, asshole. I
couldn’t believe how these guys
talked to each other--
Fogel notices Jordan sitting there frozen. He covers his
mouthpiece, kicks the desk violently.
JERRY FOGEL
Dial the cocksucking phone!
Jordan snaps out of it, starts dialing.
JORDAN (V.O.)
I was hooked within seconds.
Mark Hanna slams down his phone in victory, scrawls out a
“buy” ticket. He places the ticket into a glass cylinder
which he slips into a plastic pneumatic tube.
JORDAN (V.O.)
It was like mainlining adrenaline.
The tube is WHOOSHED into the ceiling and we’re suddenly--

Scene 4 - Jordan Begins His Career on Wall Street
CLOSE ON a COKE SPOON whose contents disappear up a
nostril. PULL BACK TO REVEAL...
The lunchtime power spot with panoramic views of the
city. At a corner table, a paranoid Jordan looks around
as Hanna does another bump of coke. None of the other
DINERS seem to notice or care.
MARK HANNA
(offering the spoon)
Got enough for one more? Tootski?
JORDAN
No. Thanks though.
Hanna slips the vial into his pocket as HECTOR, the
tuxedoed Maitre’D, approaches.
HECTOR
Mr. Hanna, what can I bring for
you on this glorious afternoon?
Hanna surreptitiously palms Hector a $100; Jordan
notices.
MARK HANNA
Here’s the game plan, Hector.
Bring us two Absolut Martinis
straight up. Precisely seven and
a half minutes after you deliver
those you’ll bring two more, then
two more every five minutes until
one of us passes out.
HECTOR
An excellent strategy, sir.
JORDAN
Actually, I’m good with 7-Up.
Jordan might as well have farted at the table.
MARK HANNA
First day on Wall Street, Hector.
Give him time.
(Hector offers menus)
No thanks, I’m not eating.
Hector heads off.
JORDAN
You can get high during the day
and still function?
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 10.
MARK HANNA
High is the only way to do this
fucking job. Guy who coined the
term “three-martini lunch” was a
woman. Cocaine and hookers, my
friend, the keys to success.
Jordan smiles, not sure if Hanna is kidding.
JORDAN
I gotta say, I’m really excited
about being part of your team.
I wanna do all I can for our
clients and --
MARK HANNA
(reciting an ad)
“Here at L.F. Rothschild, our
clients aren’t just important,
they’re family.” Just as long as
we get our taste first. Remember
something, Jordan, your top
priority in this job: make us
money. If the clients get rich
along the way, bully for them.
Got a girlfriend?
JORDAN
Wife. She cuts hair.
Mark swallows a comment about that. Gets to business.
MARK HANNA
OK, first rule of Wall Street.
Nobody -- and I don’t care if
you’re Warren Buffet or Jimmy
Buffet -- nobody knows if a
stock’s going up, down or fucking
sideways, least of all stock
brokers. But we have to pretend
we know. Make sure you stay
relaxed. Nobody wants to buy
something from someone who sounds
like they haven’t gotten laid in a
month. Take breaks when you feel
stressed, jerk off if you can.
You like jerking off, right?
JORDAN
Well... sure.
MARK HANNA
Good, jerking off is key. And I
highly recommend cocaine, which
will make you dial faster, which
is good for me. Churn ‘em and
burn ‘em, baby.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 11.
A BUSBOY stops by with a fresh napkin for Mark who thanks
him. Then, discreetly as possible, Mark removes a fresh
vial of cocaine tucked within and takes a quick snort.
Jordan realizes: that’s why he palmed the maitre d’ $100.

By four p.m. the market was down

JORDAN
You work too much as it is.

27 INT. INVESTOR’S CENTER - DAY (DEC ‘87) 27
The antithesis of L.F. Rothschild, with cheap furniture

pitches. Jordan enters, a modern man among cave people.
DWAYNE, slovenly, 35, with a walrus mustache, looks up.
JORDAN
I’m looking for Investor’s Center?
DWAYNE
That’s us, hey. Dwayne.
JORDAN
(as they shake hands)
Jordan Belfort, I called earlier.
I was a broker with Rothschild.
Dwayne motions Jordan to a seat. Nearby, a Broker in
ratty Keds, TOBY WELCH, is screaming into his phone.
TOBY WELCH
I’m tellin’ you, this stock is
goin’ up!... Cause I know,
okay?!... I have inside
information!
Jordan looks at him, appalled at what he’s hearing.
JORDAN
Where are your quotrons?
DWAYNE
No quotrons, we sell off the pink
sheets -- penny stocks.
Dwayne slides Jordan a large thin book; its pages are
literally pink. He explains as Jordan flips the pages:
DWAYNE (CONT’D)
Company don’t have enough capital
to be listed on NASDAQ, their
shares trade here.
(points to the book)
Like these guys, Aerotyne? They
make radar detectors out of a
garage in Dubuque.
JORDAN
Six cents a share? Who buys this
crap?
DWAYNE
Schmucks mostly. Mailmen,
plumbers, people thinking they can
get rich quick. They answer our
ads, Popular Mechanics, Hustler.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 14.
JORDAN
The spread on these is huge.
DWAYNE
So’s your commission, that’s the
point. Blue chips stocks you get
what, one percent? Pink sheets
are fifty.
JORDAN
Wait a second. You’re telling me
if I sell two thousand dollars
worth of stock, my commission is a
thousand bucks?
DWAYNE
Technically, yeah, but not even
the biggest schmuck buys two
thousand dollars of this shit.
28 INT. INVESTOR’S CENTER - (LATER THAT) DAY (DEC ’87) 28
As others Brokers bark into phones, Jordan sits, phone
cradled in his shoulder, making notes. A few beats, then:
JORDAN
(into phone)
Mr. Fleming, good morning, Jordan
Belfort with Investor’s Center in
New York City. You recently
responded to one of our ads...
A few of the other Brokers glance over, eavesdropping.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
The reason I’m calling is that
an extremely exciting investment
opportunity crossed my desk today.
Typically our firm recommends no
more than five stocks per year:
this is one of them...
A few more Brokers look over...
JORDAN (CONT'D)
Aerotyne International is a
cutting edge tech firm out of the
Midwest, awaiting imminent patent
approval on a new generation of
radar equipment...
LATER. Now all the Brokers listen in rapt attention.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 15.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
-- so if Aerotyne’s shares rise
to only a dollar -- and our
research indicates they could go
much, much higher -- your profit
on a mere three thousand dollar
investment would be upwards of
fifty thousand... That’s right,
you could pay off your mortgage.
Seconds tick by; an eternity, then he starts writing:
JORDAN (CONT’D)
Four thousand dollars, will
that be check or money order?...
Thank you, sir.
Jordan hangs up, scrawls out a “buy” ticket.
JORDAN (V.O.) (CONT’D)
Just like that I made two grand.
The other guys looked at me like
I’d just discovered fire.
Toby Welch and the other cave-Brokers stare at him.

Donnie does a hit of crack; his jaw twitches, then his
facial muscles contort, locking up like a stroke victim.
After a few beats, he hands the pipe to Jordan.

hype is worthless with these

In military terms it’s like carpet-

Stratton brokers you will be laser-
guided smart-bombs aimed at high-
priority targets. You will
establish an initial relationship
with your clients selling only
blue chip stocks -- then and only
then will you attempt to sell the
pink sheets, where the real money
is. Now the key to every sale is
this:
Jordan writes the word “URGENCY” on the board.
JORDAN (CONT’D)
No one buys stock unless he thinks
it’s going up and going up now.
You must convince your client to
buy before the takeover happens,
before the lawsuit is settled,
before the patent is granted.
If he says I’ll think about it and
call you back, it’s over, you’re
dead! No one calls back! So you

(OCT ‘91)
A gorgeous place; city views. As Teresa sits nearby, a
distraught Jordan paces, holding the copy of Forbes.
JORDAN
That conniving little twat!
(reading)
“The Wolf of Wall Street”.
TERESA
(on the bright side)
Your hair looks good.
JORDAN
“Jordan Belfort, a twisted version
of Robin Hood who takes from the
rich and gives to himself and his
merry band of brokers”.
TERESA
There’s no such thing as bad
publicity, sweetie.
70 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT II - BULLPEN - LATER THAT DAY 70
Bustling with activity. Jordan enters, crosses toward
his office. Off to the side of the bullpen, he notices
three dozen YOUNG MEN in business suits. He approaches
his assistant JANET, 20s, dressed all in black.
JORDAN
The hell’s all this?
JANET
The Forbes article. They’re
applying for jobs.
They spot Jordan, start clamoring, waving their resumes.
JOB APPLICANTS
Mr. Belfort! Over here! Sir!
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 30.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Forbes had made me a superstar.
Every day dozens of money-crazed
kids beat a path to my door with
resumes they hadn’t even bothered
to spellcheck.
Jordan crosses through the packed bullpen, where 150
BROKERS, no older than 22, are crammed elbow to elbow
talking into phones. Some have pets, which they tend to
while they work -- iguanas, snakes, turtles, even a
chimp. Others are getting shoulder rubs by Masseuses
or being fitted for suits by a TAILOR. Over the above:
JORDAN (V.O.)
If we hired ‘em, they dropped out
of college overnight and blew
whatever allowance they had on a
new suit from our in-house tailor.
The median age of our brokerage
couldn’t get served in the bar
down the street.
71 INT. FBI BREAK ROOM - DAY (OCT ‘91) 71
PATRICK DENHAM sits sipping coffee as he reads Forbes.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Not this guy though -- what the
fuck is he even doing here? He
read the Forbes article, too, but
he already had a job.
72 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - DAY (MAR ‘92) 72
CLOSE ON two BROKERS wrestling while others cheer them
on. PULL BACK to reveal the place from the opening. 300
young Brokers and their hot ASSISTANTS work the phones.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Within months, we doubled in size,
moved to even bigger offices.
Two other Brokers pump themselves up, chest-bumping and
screaming like football players.
JORDAN (V.O.)
It was a madhouse, a greed-fest,
with equal parts cocaine,
testosterone and body fluids.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 31.
73 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - MEN’S ROOM - DAY (MAR ‘92) 73
In a stall, two Brokers snort coke, while another Broker
fucks a Sales Assistant perched on the sink.
JORDAN (V.O.)
I had to declare the office a fuck-
free zone between the hours of 9
and 7, but even that didn’t help.
Taped to the mirror we see a MEMO -- inside a red circle,
two anatomically correct stick figures fuck doggy-style,
a red line slashing through them.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Actually the madness started on
our very first day, when one of
our brokers, Ben Jenner,
christened the elevator by
getting a blowjob from a sales
assistant.

Scene 11 - Boastful and Wild Workplace
Two dozen Brokers cheer, watching through the rising
glass elevator as BEN JENNER, 25, gets a blowjob from a
brunette SALES ASSISTANT. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
Her name was Pam and to her
credit, she did have an amazing
technique, with this wild twist
and jerk motion.
75 INT. STRATTON OAKMONT III - JORDAN’S OFFICE - DAY 75
(FEB ‘92)
As Pam blows Jordan, Donnie fucks her from behind.
JORDAN (V.O.)
Eventually Ben married her, which
was pretty amazing considering she
blew every guy in the office.
75A INSERT POLAROID - (JUN ‘92) 75A

JORDAN (V.O.)
Anyway, in an attempt to maintain
order, I hired my dad Max as
defacto CFO and head of the
Gestapo.
75C INT. JORDAN’S PARENTS’ APARTMENT - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT 75C
MAX BELFORT sits smoking, watching a rerun of “The
Equalizer” on TV. His wife, LEAH, does needlepoint.
JORDAN (V.O.)
We called him Mad Max because of
his hair-trigger temper, which
could be set off by something as
innocuous as a ringing telephone.
The phone RINGS.
MAX
Who the hell has the goddamn gall
to call this house on a Tuesday
evening! Goddammit!
JORDAN (V.O.)
But then the weirdest thing would
happen. Though he’d never been
near England, he’d pick up the
phone and affect an ever-so-slight
British accent.
Greatly agitated, Max stomps toward the phone.
JORDAN (V.O.)
This was his other persona -- the
super polite, ever-gracious Sir
Max.
MAX
(into phone)
Hello?... Yes, Gene, right-eo.
Good-good then... Cheerio.
JORDAN (V.O.)
It was absolutely bizarre. He’d
hang up...
MAX
(hangs up phone)
Goddamn fucking halfwit!
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 33.
JORDAN (V.O.)
And become Mad Max all over again.
Max curses a blue streak as he stomps back to his chair.

That's a whole different thing. I *

Hello, Father. *

doesn’t budge)
They’re business expenses. Just *

If you bastards don't wipe those
smug fucking looks off your faces,
I swear to God I'm gonna wipe ‘em
off for you!

Are you insane?
ROBBIE *
Actually, Max, my portion of the
bill is hardly anything, so I’m on
the same page as you --
MAX
Shut the fuck up, Feinberg, you
only have a portion because of my
son, you worthless twerp!
DONNIE
(chuckles)
Twerp.
MAX
You zip it, too, Azoff, those
boiling teeth of yours are hurting

My own son! From my very loins!

Yeah, that was... Sorry.

What is EJ Entertainment? What is
EJ Entertainment?!

You tell me, Dad.
MAX
It’s a goddamn prostitution ring

Jordan feigns shock, turns to Donnie: did you know it was
a prostitution ring?!
DONNIE
Doesn’t the IRS allow for T&A?
MAX
It’s T&E and stop fucking with me!
What kind of hookers take credit
cards, anyway?!
Jordan takes the bill, starts flipping through it.
JORDAN (V.O.)
In Stratton parlance, there were
three kinds of hookers. There
were blue chips, the top of the
line. Model material. They were
priced between $300 and $500 and
made you wear a condom unless you
gave them a hefty tip, which I
always did.
77A A “BLUE CHIP” HOOKER FLOATS THROUGH, SURROUNDED BY *77A
STRATTON BROKERS. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
Then came NASDAQs, who were
pretty, but not great, usually
in the two to three hundred
dollar range.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 38.
77B A “NASDAQ” HOOKER DANCES THROUGH BULLPEN. STRATTON *77B
BROKERS WATCH. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
Finally there were pink sheets,
skanks, the bottom of the barrel.
77C A “PINK SHEET” HOOKER, COVERED IN TATTOOS, IS ON ALL *77C
FOURS AS SEA OTTER RIDES HER LIKE A PONY. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
They usually cost a hundred or
less, and if you didn't wear a
condom, you'd get a penicillin
shot the next day and pray your
dick didn't fall off.
77D THE ABOVE-MENTIONED “PINK SHEET” HOOKER SITS ON A STOOL, *77D
AS SEA OTTER FUCKS HER. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
Not that we didn’t fuck them, too.
Believe me, we did.
Behind him, the other guys wait their turns. *
77E BACK TO SCENE 77E
Max continues to steam so Jordan ushers Robbie, Rugrat
and Donnie out the door.
JORDAN
Give us a minute, will you, guys?
He closes the door, then stretches a bit, exaggeratedly,
letting out a little moan.
MAX
What’s the matter?
JORDAN
Nothing, just... My back’s been
killing me. Pain shooting down my
leg. Not to worry, it’ll pass.
MAX
What do the doctors say?
JORDAN
Doctors, what do they know? I’m on
like twenty different medications.
(re: the Amex bill)
Look, I know it's hard for you to
make sense of these expenses, but
there's a method here, okay? *
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 39.
Max waits to hear it; Jordan gestures to the bullpen *
MAX
And you have to lead by example,
is that it?
(Jordan nods)
I’m tellin’ ya, kid, one of these
days... one of these days the
chickens are gonna come home to *
roost.
JORDAN *
In order to keep these guys *
working, I gotta keep ‘em *
spending. I need to keep them *
chasing the dream. You flash some *
cash, they do the same. It keeps *
them motivated. *
MAX *
Pissing away money? That’s what *
motivates you kids? *
JORDAN *
I could afford to pay them more, *
but then they wouldn't need me as *
much. And as long as they need me *
they'll always fear me. I know it *
sounds crazy. *
MAX *
Crazy? This... is obscene. *
He turns and exits. Jordan watches him go, thinking.
JORDAN (V.O.)
It was obscene -- in the normal
world. But who wanted to live
there?

Dozens of luxury cars parked outside. On a balcony,

IN ON Donnie, practically drooling, as Jordan gives us a
quick tutorial on ludes...
79A QUAALUDE TUTORIAL *79A
CUT TO: Extreme close up of guys doing drugs. *
JORDAN (V.O.)
The quaalude was first synthesized
in 1951 by an Indian doctor --
that’s dot Indian, not feathers --
as a sedative, and was prescribed
to stressed housewives with sleep
disorders. Pretty soon someone
figured out that if you resisted
the urge to sleep for fifteen
minutes, you got a pretty kick-ass
high from it. Didn’t take long
for people to start abusing ludes,
‘course, and in 1982 the U.S.
Government Schedule One’d them,
along with the rest of the world.
Which meant there was only a
finite amount of these things
left. No shit, you can’t even
find ‘em anymore today. You
people’re all shit outta luck.

Jordan suspects Donnie may actually be onto something.
But just then...
SEA OTTER
Holy fuck.
Jordan peers over the balcony where Sea Otter’s looking.
NAOMI LAPAGLIA. 22, the hottest blonde ever, has entered
the party with her date BLAIR. She smiles, full lips
parting over perfect white teeth, a ridiculously short
dress barely covering her long tan legs and full breasts.
RUGRAT
My nutsack’s about to explode.
ROBBIE *
Someone’s gotta take that down.
There’s no debate who that someone should be. Eyes
locked on Naomi, Jordan makes his way downstairs.
WITH NAOMI taking in the party, her eyes flitting to
things: art, chandeliers, crystal, etc.
NAOMI (V.O.)
A lotta people would look at me
and think: “golddigger, she’s out
to land the richest husband she
can.” But you see, I came from
nothing. Like, below the poverty
line. And when you come from
nothing, being rich means never
having to go back to that.
Jordan approaches CRISTY, 20s, one of his guests.
CRISTY
Jordan, hey.
(he smiles; Cristy
picks up his intent)
Have you met my friend Naomi?
Jordan takes Naomi’s hand, doesn’t let go.
JORDAN
Naomi.
NAOMI
You have an awesome house. I
don’t think I’ve ever been in a
house like this.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 43.
JORDAN
You like it? I just got it. I
guess it’s okay. Six bedrooms,
two hot-tubs, one off the master
suite overlooking the water. You
like to jet-ski?
Naomi’s date Blair offers his hand to break them apart.
Toby Welch lurks behind him, giving him the evil-eye.
BLAIR
Hi. Blair Hollingsworth.
Jordan barely acknowledges him, focused on Naomi.
Outside, HILDY AZOFF chats with Teresa. Her eyes stray
to Jordan chatting up Naomi. Teresa’s eyes follow hers
and sees them. Ouch. Hildy goes.
JORDAN
You’re telling me you’ve never jet-
ski’ed in your life?!
NAOMI
Never.
BLAIR
Y’know, we really should hit it,
there’s two other parties we’re
s’posed to get to --
JORDAN
What? You just got here. Stay.
Naomi looks like she’d like to. Hildy approaches,
introduces herself, then:
HILDY
Jordan, Teresa needs your help.
JORDAN
With what?
HILDY
I dunno, you’ll have to ask your
wife what she wants.
Jordan sees: Teresa is watching from afar.
DONNIE(O.S.)
Oh sweet Jesus!
Jordan turns to see a drunk Donnie, cock in hand, jerking
off to Naomi. Hildy comes running over.
The Wolf of Wall Street Buff Revised Pages 3/5/13 44.
HILDY
Donnie! What the fuck are you
doing?!
During the melee that follows -- Hildy admonishing
Donnie, Blair removing Naomi from the party --
JORDAN (V.O.)
The day I met Naomi was the day I
truly became the Wolf. Every guy
wanted her -- so I had to have
her.

him and, like that, he’s hooked.
