00:04:32,722 --> 00:04:35,426
don't try to save anyone
or anything.

135
00:05:19,348 --> 00:05:21,018

Bleeding Gums Murphy expert.
137
00:05:26,061 --> 00:05:27,999
I'm still working on that name.
138
00:05:28,065 --> 00:05:29,234
But I can tell you
139
00:05:29,334 --> 00:05:31,907
he would not want
his incredible music
140
00:05:32,007 --> 00:05:35,915
used for this carnival of greed
known as the lottery.
141
00:05:35,981 --> 00:05:40,456
- Little girl, you claim to know everything about Mr. Murphy.
- I do.
142
00:05:40,523 --> 00:05:43,664
- Do you even know his first name?
- Oscar.
143
00:05:43,730 --> 00:05:46,736
- Do you know his favorite key?
- B-flat.
144
00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:49,742
Mm, that's right.
Favorite brand of reed?
145
00:05:49,809 --> 00:05:50,811
Légère.
146
00:05:50,911 --> 00:05:52,314
Favorite type of jazz?
147
00:05:52,347 --> 00:05:53,717
- Straight-ahead.
- Huh.
148
00:05:53,784 --> 00:05:55,754
Do you know the name
of his first recording?
149
00:05:55,821 --> 00:05:59,361
Well, his first album
was Broken Elevator Blues.
150
00:05:59,428 --> 00:06:02,467
- Yes...
- But his first recording
151
00:06:02,568 --> 00:06:04,137
was at Minton's Playhouse
152
00:06:04,237 --> 00:06:06,442
playing
alongside Thelonious Monk
153
00:06:06,542 --> 00:06:08,981
when Bleeding Gums was 16.
154
00:06:09,047 --> 00:06:10,250
Hmm, right again.
155
00:06:10,383 --> 00:06:13,389
She'll know this.
She'll know this.
156
00:06:13,489 --> 00:06:16,328
Aha. How old is his son?
157
00:06:16,395 --> 00:06:17,397
He has a son?
158

- (buzzer buzzes)
- (gasps)
159
00:06:18,967 --> 00:06:20,571
I did not know that.

No further questions,
Your Honor.
161
00:06:22,608 --> 00:06:24,712
But this isn't a courtroom.
162
00:06:24,746 --> 00:06:26,448
Overruled.
163
00:06:26,515 --> 00:06:28,654
- We'll be right back.
- (musical sting plays)
164
00:06:34,264 --> 00:06:35,433
(crying) I feel like a fool.
165
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:36,936
How could I love someone so much
166
00:06:37,037 --> 00:06:39,876
and not know something
so important about him?
167
00:06:39,976 --> 00:06:41,445
Don't worry, Lisa.
168
00:06:41,512 --> 00:06:44,351
- To me, you're perfect.
- I am?
169
00:06:44,451 --> 00:06:47,090
Yes. But I'm just an image
created by your mind,
170
00:06:47,190 --> 00:06:49,061
so I say what you want.
171
00:06:49,127 --> 00:06:50,864
Oh, that's pleasant.
172
00:06:50,965 --> 00:06:53,570
Come on, Lis.
Let's play Target Lisa.
173
00:06:53,637 --> 00:06:55,674
Sorry, I'm too sad.
174
00:06:55,741 --> 00:06:58,680
I can barely play
the soulless sounds of Kenny G.
175
00:06:58,747 --> 00:07:00,383
No one likes Kenny G.
176
00:07:00,450 --> 00:07:02,888
That's why they killed
Kenny A through F.
177
00:07:02,955 --> 00:07:05,761
I didn't even know
my hero had a son. (sniffles)
178
00:07:05,828 --> 00:07:09,101
Watching you cry
makes me feel the need to act.
179
00:07:11,505 --> 00:07:14,044
Ah, much better.
180
00:07:14,144 --> 00:07:15,914
I'm gonna find your son.
181
00:07:16,015 --> 00:07:17,585
And I'm gonna find out
what he thinks
182
00:07:17,652 --> 00:07:19,922
about the way
your songs are being used.
183
00:07:20,023 --> 00:07:24,231
Well, here's a clue. I named him
after my favorite piano player.
184
00:07:24,297 --> 00:07:26,903
Monk. M-Monk Murphy.
185
00:07:27,003 --> 00:07:27,805
That's right.
186
00:07:27,872 --> 00:07:29,274
Now that you've got the name,
187
00:07:29,374 --> 00:07:30,476
just check the phone book.
188
00:07:30,544 --> 00:07:32,213
What's a phone book?
189
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,952
I have been dead a long time.
190
00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:39,194
Hi. I'm Lisa Simpson.
191
00:07:39,261 --> 00:07:40,731
And you're Monk Murphy.
192
00:07:40,798 --> 00:07:43,169
Oh, my God.
You look just like your father.
193
00:07:43,302 --> 00:07:44,204
Let me guess.
194
00:07:44,304 --> 00:07:46,710
You're one of the musicians
my dad mentored.
195
00:07:46,810 --> 00:07:49,314
Do you want to come in
and see pictures of him?
196
00:07:49,414 --> 00:07:50,984
Well, I don't want to impose
on your time.
197
00:07:51,085 --> 00:07:53,824
- Okay.
- Oh, yes! Please, please, please.
198
00:07:53,890 --> 00:07:56,596
Let me just tell you,
I loved your dad.
199
00:07:56,663 --> 00:08:00,236
For a blues musician,
he could really cheer people up.
200
00:08:00,336 --> 00:08:03,542
Just thinking about him
makes me smile. (chuckles)
201
00:08:03,643 --> 00:08:06,916
And I found out
he recorded a song just for you.
202
00:08:06,983 --> 00:08:08,787
"Monk's New Tune."
203
00:08:08,854 --> 00:08:13,162
(singing along):
♪ Before I was saved
by my better half ♪
204
00:08:13,229 --> 00:08:15,601
♪ I once disappeared ♪
205
00:08:15,701 --> 00:08:18,640
♪ In a black-and-white
photograph. ♪
206
00:08:18,740 --> 00:08:19,742
Please, I'm sorry.
207
00:08:19,842 --> 00:08:21,613
That's not something
I can enjoy.
208
00:08:21,679 --> 00:08:23,617
I understand. You miss your dad.
209
00:08:23,683 --> 00:08:26,288
I do. But I can't enjoy music
210
00:08:26,355 --> 00:08:28,526
because I can't hear it.
Never could.
211
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,564
I was born profoundly deaf.
212
00:08:30,631 --> 00:08:32,701
Oh. But this whole time
we were talking,
213
00:08:32,768 --> 00:08:35,440
- you seemed to hear everything.
- I read lips.
214
00:08:35,506 --> 00:08:36,576
Then read this:
215
00:08:36,676 --> 00:08:38,012
I'm your dad's biggest fan.
216
00:08:38,079 --> 00:08:40,751
(chuckles) Did you love him
as much as I do?
217
00:08:40,851 --> 00:08:42,487
Yes. He was a great dad.
218
00:08:42,588 --> 00:08:45,293
He even refereed
my soccer games.
219
00:08:46,596 --> 00:08:48,299
(whistle blows, jazz tune plays)
220
00:08:49,602 --> 00:08:50,938
- (Lisa exhales)
- You know,
221
00:08:51,004 --> 00:08:53,242
his whole world
was music and me.
222
00:08:53,342 --> 00:08:55,046
So he took it kind of hard
223
00:08:55,146 --> 00:08:57,885
when he found out
that I couldn't hear.
224
00:09:05,567 --> 00:09:07,805
(clanging loudly)
225
00:09:21,165 --> 00:09:23,169
This boy's hearing loss
is so profound,
226
00:09:23,269 --> 00:09:25,707
you could fire a gun
right next to his head,
227
00:09:25,808 --> 00:09:26,943
and he wouldn't hear it.
228
00:09:27,043 --> 00:09:28,580
That's not how you tested him,
is it?
229
00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:30,216
Of course not.
230
00:09:31,251 --> 00:09:33,155
There have been
great advancements, though.
231
00:09:33,222 --> 00:09:34,524
With a cochlear implant
232
00:09:34,625 --> 00:09:36,563
combined with auditory
and language therapy,
233
00:09:36,663 --> 00:09:38,466
he could potentially
hear quite well.
234
00:09:38,567 --> 00:09:41,639
But I have to warn you, like
any important medical miracle,
235
00:09:41,706 --> 00:09:42,975
it's only for rich people
236
00:09:43,042 --> 00:09:45,547
and doctors
who get a huge discount.
237
00:09:45,614 --> 00:09:47,651
(laughs)
238
00:09:47,685 --> 00:09:49,989
Son,
I'm gonna work night and day
239
00:09:50,089 --> 00:09:51,926
to get you
that cochlear implant.
240
00:09:52,026 --> 00:09:55,533
Uh, do you have any other skills
besides playing jazz?
241
00:09:55,601 --> 00:09:57,805
I also teach jazz.
242
00:09:57,938 --> 00:10:00,543
Uh, how are you paying
for this appointment?
243
00:10:00,644 --> 00:10:02,180
With this.
244
00:10:04,585 --> 00:10:06,723
Looks like about $16.
245
00:10:06,823 --> 00:10:09,595
Yeah. I had a good month.
246
00:10:09,695 --> 00:10:11,766
Wow. That must be
when your father wrote
247
00:10:11,833 --> 00:10:14,037
"Sixteen Bucks
Just Ain't Enough."
248
00:10:14,104 --> 00:10:16,576
Do you still want to get
the cochlear implant?
249
00:10:16,676 --> 00:10:18,445
I do. Very much.
250
00:10:18,580 --> 00:10:20,349
But I take after my dad.
251
00:10:20,416 --> 00:10:23,890
He played jazz for a living.
I run a nonprofit.
252
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:27,263
I make a lot more than he did
but not enough.
253
00:10:27,363 --> 00:10:30,336
Wait. Did you know
they're using your dad's song
254
00:10:30,436 --> 00:10:31,973
for the Springfield Lottery?
255
00:10:32,106 --> 00:10:34,545
Oh, my God. What?
But he hated gambling.
256
00:10:34,579 --> 00:10:36,683
I know. Did he tell you that?
257
00:10:36,783 --> 00:10:39,387
Uh, no.
I learned it on the website,
258
00:10:39,454 --> 00:10:41,124
Bleeding Gummy Bears.
259
00:10:41,225 --> 00:10:44,699
(chuckles):
Yes! Finally nailed the title.
260
00:10:44,832 --> 00:10:46,936
But the lottery
must be giving you money.
261
00:10:47,003 --> 00:10:49,074
Enough for the implant. Right?
262
00:10:49,107 --> 00:10:51,813
Nope. I'm afraid
I haven't gotten any money.
263
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,785
I'm sorry, what?
I was destined to find you.
264
00:10:54,886 --> 00:10:57,357
My new mission in life
is to make you happy.
265
00:10:57,457 --> 00:10:58,927
You're my new cause.
266
00:10:58,994 --> 00:11:00,898
Hold up.
I'm not anybody's cause.
267
00:11:00,998 --> 00:11:04,004
I enjoy who I am.
I love my community.
268
00:11:04,070 --> 00:11:07,611
And, you know, sometimes I like
turning off annoying sounds
269
00:11:07,678 --> 00:11:09,214
by just closing my eyes.
270
00:11:09,347 --> 00:11:11,218
Oh, yes. I hate annoying noises.
271
00:11:11,285 --> 00:11:14,024
Now just listen.
Here's what we're gonna do.
272
00:11:14,124 --> 00:11:17,731
We're gonna bring
those publishers to their knees.
273
00:11:17,798 --> 00:11:19,034
You and I are g...
274
00:11:20,604 --> 00:11:22,106
...gonna lawyer up, and I...
275
00:11:23,743 --> 00:11:26,315
Then, eventually,
the Supreme Court will hear...
276
00:11:27,885 --> 00:11:29,956
...going to restore
your dad's legacy.
277
00:11:30,056 --> 00:11:32,895
Now? I have to eat.
I have a blood sugar thing.
278
00:11:32,962 --> 00:11:36,769
It's so much easier if you
don't work against me here.
279
00:11:37,605 --> 00:11:39,709
It's cool. They know me here.
280
00:11:39,809 --> 00:11:40,911
(coughs)
281
00:11:40,978 --> 00:11:42,247
(raspy voice):
Mind if I open this window?
282
00:11:42,347 --> 00:11:44,752
This place has windows?
283
00:11:44,819 --> 00:11:46,889
(coughs)
I'm home.
284
00:11:46,956 --> 00:11:49,895
Ooh, they put up
a memorial wall.
285
00:11:49,996 --> 00:11:52,267
That's McCoy Tyner.
He played with Coltrane.
286
00:11:52,333 --> 00:11:55,172
Gerald Wilson,
the west coast Duke Ellington.
287
00:11:55,239 --> 00:11:57,945
And look, Sarah Vaughan.
(gasps)
288
00:11:58,078 --> 00:12:00,717
Oh, no. Etta Pryor passed?
289
00:12:00,784 --> 00:12:02,353
No, baby, I didn't.
290
00:12:02,453 --> 00:12:05,694
I am not gonna lean
against this wall anymore.
291
00:12:05,794 --> 00:12:08,532
Now scat. (chuckles)
No, no, no. Baby, please.
292
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,436
Not that kind of scatting.
293
00:12:10,536 --> 00:12:12,540
(scatting)
294
00:12:14,712 --> 00:12:16,816
We just wanted some information
about my dad.
295
00:12:16,916 --> 00:12:18,485
Monk Murphy?
(chuckles)
296
00:12:18,586 --> 00:12:21,893
Your dad used to bring you here
when you was just a baby.
297
00:12:21,926 --> 00:12:24,364
You know,
I wrote so many songs about you.
298
00:12:24,464 --> 00:12:27,136
Like, uh, um, um, "Please Change
the Baby's Diaper."
299
00:12:27,236 --> 00:12:29,541
"That Baby Spit Up
on My Good Dress."
300
00:12:29,608 --> 00:12:31,546
And "Who Brings a Baby
to a Jazz Club?"
301
00:12:31,612 --> 00:12:32,881
Now, that was a smash hit.
302
00:12:32,948 --> 00:12:34,952
Oh, it's so good
to see you again.
303
00:12:35,019 --> 00:12:37,523
No one
knew your dad better than me.
304
00:12:37,591 --> 00:12:39,662
I knew him better than his mama,
305
00:12:39,729 --> 00:12:42,266
his preacher and his supplier
306
00:12:42,333 --> 00:12:44,137
at the Sunglass Hut.
307
00:12:44,204 --> 00:12:46,074
Great. Who owns the rights
to his music?
308
00:12:46,141 --> 00:12:48,847
I don't know.
But I do know this.
309
00:12:48,913 --> 00:12:51,653

His publisher.

00:14:02,493 --> 00:14:06,401
Look, before I can even talk
to you, sign this. Please.
336
00:14:07,938 --> 00:14:09,507
Why'd you do that?
337
00:14:09,575 --> 00:14:11,311
All I got was "please."
338
00:14:11,378 --> 00:14:14,217
That mustache
makes his lips hard to read.
339
00:14:14,317 --> 00:14:16,521
Ah, thanks. I work hard
on not having readable lips.
340
00:14:16,622 --> 00:14:18,459
Or handwriting. Or fingerprints.
341
00:14:18,525 --> 00:14:20,864
(laughs)
Yeah.
342
00:14:20,964 --> 00:14:22,968
How could you sell
Bleeding Gums's song
343
00:14:23,035 --> 00:14:26,241
to the lottery? It belongs
to him and his family.
344
00:14:26,341 --> 00:14:28,713
No, you're right.
Uh, Bleeding Gums wrote it.
345
00:14:28,813 --> 00:14:30,116
Then he came to us

He should've read
the contract boilerplate,
347
00:14:32,453 --> 00:14:34,324
which we never showed him
nor told him actually existed.
348
00:14:34,390 --> 00:14:37,029
And, boy,
is there a lot of boilerplate.
349
00:14:37,096 --> 00:14:39,702
But, uh, he got his share.
350
00:14:39,735 --> 00:14:43,142
"Worldwide royalties, 92 cents"?
351
00:14:43,242 --> 00:14:45,814
This is half
of what they promised.
352
00:14:45,881 --> 00:14:48,051
This is the 21st century, bub,
353
00:14:48,118 --> 00:14:49,955
where artists own their work.
354
00:14:50,022 --> 00:14:51,826
Although they often have
to release it for free
355
00:14:51,926 --> 00:14:55,299
on the Internet.
But we are gonna sue you.
356
00:14:55,366 --> 00:14:56,869
We don't own the rights anymore.
357
00:14:56,936 --> 00:14:59,007
We sold them
to a powerful consortium
358
00:14:59,073 --> 00:15:01,011
including Nike,
Lay's potato chips,

I'm happy. Let me rephrase that.

I was happy

00:15:35,479 --> 00:15:38,185
until a little girl came
and told me I wasn't.

Please, stop helping me.

Mm. I think something's wrong
with Lisa.
389
00:16:11,318 --> 00:16:13,255
Something was wrong with Lisa.
390
00:16:13,322 --> 00:16:16,261
Good news, Marge.
I got it all handled.

00:16:17,898 --> 00:16:19,668
Maybe I should talk to her.
393
00:16:19,735 --> 00:16:22,306
She just told me she agreed
with everything I said.
394
00:16:22,406 --> 00:16:24,444
If you interfere,
it'll ruin all my hard work
395
00:16:24,578 --> 00:16:26,649

396

I just wish you were here.
412

You always knew what to say.
413
00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:11,271
Little Lisa,
414
00:17:11,371 --> 00:17:14,110
I'm always magically here
for you,
415
00:17:14,210 --> 00:17:16,782
like Will Smith
in The Legend of Bagger Vance
416
00:17:16,882 --> 00:17:21,157
or, better yet, Morgan Freeman
in Driving Miss Daisy.
417

418
00:17:26,769 --> 00:17:30,209

419
00:17:30,276 --> 00:17:31,211
(Southern accent):
Yes, Hoke.
420
00:17:31,278 --> 00:17:34,350
And teach me about equality
and civil rights
421
00:17:34,384 --> 00:17:37,056
in a way that doesn't
make me feel too guilty.
422
00:17:37,156 --> 00:17:39,027
In return, in 30 years,
423
00:17:39,127 --> 00:17:42,166
I will ask you your last name.
424
00:17:42,233 --> 00:17:45,306
(chuckles):
Hey, whoa. What are you doing?
425
00:17:45,406 --> 00:17:47,577
I was forming
an unlikely friendship.
426
00:17:47,678 --> 00:17:50,249
Hey, me, too.
Against how many odds?
427
00:17:50,316 --> 00:17:51,719
All.
428
00:17:51,819 --> 00:17:53,856
(normal voice): But I see you
as so much more than that.
429
00:17:53,923 --> 00:17:55,660
It's your legacy
I'm fighting for.
430
00:17:55,727 --> 00:17:59,400
And evil corporations can't win
against someone like me
431
00:17:59,467 --> 00:18:01,939
who has a big heart,
gumption and...
432
00:18:02,006 --> 00:18:03,609
Oh, crap.
433
00:18:03,676 --> 00:18:06,147
I'm just a kid,
this is real life,
434
00:18:06,247 --> 00:18:08,553
and there's only so much
I can do.
435
00:18:08,619 --> 00:18:11,157
All right.
I surrender to reality.
436

00:18:12,728 --> 00:18:14,865

00:18:23,816 --> 00:18:26,287
Yes. He's directing a production
of Richard III.

an eight-year-old deaf girl

Hey, you really don't need
to apologize to me.
452
00:18:55,747 --> 00:18:57,416

455
00:19:00,522 --> 00:19:02,794
How about you
just give me the gist?
456
00:19:02,894 --> 00:19:06,201
Sure. You'll love the gist.
