Epstein invited Musk to hang out, saying there would be many interesting people there.
Musk replied: "My upcoming rocket launch is the most advanced in history. It would be a stupid waste of time to come all the way to see diplomats from various countries."
Epstein was shocked: "Do you think I'm stupid? This isn't a diplomatic gathering! It's all lovely people under 25!"
However, Musk still chose the rocket launch.
