1
00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:04,100
I have an easy fall guy
when all this goes to shit.
2
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:05,940
Oh, we're talking about me, right?
3
00:00:08,020 --> 00:00:09,690
- Chip. Mitch is here.
- Five seconds...
4
00:00:09,780 --> 00:00:10,860
This is scary. I get it.
5
00:00:10,940 --> 00:00:14,530
Saying things that are unpopular about
people that are unpopular in the moment.
6
00:00:14,610 --> 00:00:16,070
But this is my fucking life!
7
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,430
Who else knew what was going on?
8
00:00:17,450 --> 00:00:18,540
Who do you think?
9
00:00:19,540 --> 00:00:20,830
I want a divorce.
10
00:00:20,910 --> 00:00:22,790
Well, no.
11
00:00:22,870 --> 00:00:26,420
Jason, I'm sorry I did that.
I'm sorry I left you at the party alo...
12
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:28,040
Breathe. Just breathe.
13
00:00:28,130 --> 00:00:30,050
Look, life is messy.
Everybody's life is messy.
14
00:00:30,130 --> 00:00:32,800
And I want you to know
that you can trust me.
15
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,880
You can tell me things,
you can be vulnerable.
16
00:00:34,970 --> 00:00:36,050
It's okay.
17
00:00:36,140 --> 00:00:37,140
Okay.
18
00:00:37,180 --> 00:00:38,600
I am sure it has crossed your mind.
19
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,850
Fred's left holding the bag
and you're kicking ass,
20
00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:44,560
then you could quickly
find yourself in Fred's seat.
21
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,860
I don't see Fred getting taken out unless
something specific comes out on him.
22
00:00:48,940 --> 00:00:51,070
- Like what?
- I don't know, Chip. Like what?
23
00:00:51,150 --> 00:00:53,630
You're not impartial on this subject.
You knew what Mitch was doing.
24
00:00:53,650 --> 00:00:56,030
I don't ever remember you
confiding in me about Mitch.
25
00:00:56,110 --> 00:00:57,386
- Asking me for help.
- Asking me for help.
26
00:00:57,410 --> 00:01:00,330
I remember you being pretty capable
of taking good care of yourself. 1
27
00:02:45,940 --> 00:02:49,110
Well, didn't I tell you?
Best falafel in all five boroughs.
28
00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:52,150
I read about it on Eater.
You know about Eater, right?
29
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,920
- Yeah. Eater's a great website.
- Love it.
30
00:02:53,950 --> 00:02:55,240
Fuck, I love Eater too.
31
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,386
Can we get back
to what we were talking about, please?
32
00:02:57,410 --> 00:02:58,890
Yeah, please continue. It was titillating.
33
00:02:58,910 --> 00:03:00,680
You were saying you
got your hands on some e-mails.
34
00:03:00,700 --> 00:03:04,500
Yes. Evidence of transfers.
Payoffs. Shuttled complaints.
35
00:03:04,580 --> 00:03:07,250
And I know people
who can back all this up.
36
00:03:07,330 --> 00:03:10,000
- There's a former VP in HR.
- Yeah.
37
00:03:10,090 --> 00:03:12,380
A producer in evening news.
38
00:03:13,220 --> 00:03:17,010
Unfortunately,
nobody can tie this directly to Fred.
39
00:03:17,090 --> 00:03:18,930
'Cause, you know, he's too fucking smart.
40
00:03:19,010 --> 00:03:21,470
But of course
he's at the center of all this. You know.
41
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,850
I mean,
nobody's doing this shit in a vacuum.
42
00:03:23,930 --> 00:03:26,730
Everybody's too busy
just trying to fucking survive.
43
00:03:27,810 --> 00:03:28,860
Including you.
44
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,860
Hey, look. Just... hear me out.
45
00:03:34,650 --> 00:03:39,490
Let's say that I background some
of this evidence to a reporter, you know.
46
00:03:39,570 --> 00:03:41,516
I know somebody at the Times
or it could be somebody else,
47
00:03:41,540 --> 00:03:43,910
or somebody young and hungry.
I don't know,
48
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,080
but I could allude to a larger story
about network complicity, okay.
49
00:03:48,170 --> 00:03:51,420
I wouldn't give them any details,
but I'd kind of usher them towards it
50
00:03:51,500 --> 00:03:52,940
and then just fucking let 'em run with it.
51
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,130
Let it build and build,
and it turns into a fucking runaway train.
52
00:03:56,220 --> 00:03:59,140
- And then we just sit back and...
- Let that train crash into Fred.
53
00:03:59,220 --> 00:04:00,260
Yes.
54
00:04:08,810 --> 00:04:11,020
- Are you gonna...
- You've seen Planet Earth, right?
55
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,780
The nature documentary?
56
00:04:15,530 --> 00:04:20,160
Documentary series, but, yeah.
It's really moving, and it's educational.
57
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:21,930
You should fucking watch it.
It's David Attenborough.
58
00:04:21,950 --> 00:04:24,740
There's this category of animals,
they're called ambush predators.
59
00:04:24,830 --> 00:04:26,660
And they run the gamut between starfish,
60
00:04:26,750 --> 00:04:30,630
cephalopods, crustaceans,
spiders, snakes, cats even.
61
00:04:30,710 --> 00:04:34,300
And ambush predators,
they wait for the prey
62
00:04:34,380 --> 00:04:37,050
to come within ambush distance
before striking.
63
00:04:37,130 --> 00:04:39,340
They're deliberate.
They usually remain hidden,
64
00:04:39,430 --> 00:04:41,930
in camouflage right up
until the moment they strike.
65
00:04:42,010 --> 00:04:44,640
But when they do strike,
it's over before it began.
66
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,730
And then there is pursuit predation.
It's a different strategy.
67
00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:50,310
Direct. Aggressive.
68
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,860
But it only tends to work when
the predator is faster than the prey.
69
00:04:53,940 --> 00:04:56,900
Look, I'm not an amateur, all right.
I'm faster than you think.
70
00:04:56,990 --> 00:04:59,400
You're not as fast as Fred.
71
00:04:59,820 --> 00:05:03,160
This is his wilderness,
and he's been running for a long time.
72
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,120
He is fucking fast.
73
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,330
You do not chase
Fred Micklen out in the open
74
00:05:08,410 --> 00:05:11,250
unless you know you can take him down.
75
00:05:11,330 --> 00:05:13,420
Otherwise,
he's gonna turn around, attack you,
76
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:16,630
gut you and eat your innards
in the middle of the fucking savanna.
77
00:05:16,710 --> 00:05:18,550
And that's gonna hurt. A lot.
78
00:05:19,550 --> 00:05:22,760
I mean, what the fuck am I supposed to do?
79
00:05:23,390 --> 00:05:25,760
You wait, man. Were you listening to me?
80
00:05:25,850 --> 00:05:28,430
Until the timing is right
and we have enough ammunition.
81
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,980
Actual airtight evidence
that links Fred to a cover-up.
82
00:05:32,060 --> 00:05:33,380
Yeah. That's easy for you to say.
83
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,270
Fred has me fucking
trained in his rifle sights, okay?
84
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,280
Hey, man. I just gotta point out right now
you seem really desperate,
85
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,280
and desperation is not a strong
position to make a big move.
86
00:05:43,450 --> 00:05:46,120
Is that something else you learned
from your nature documentary?
87
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,910
No. That's Sun Tzu. Art of War.
88
00:05:48,370 --> 00:05:50,660
Jesus. Somebody
fucking kill me right now. I just...
89
00:05:50,750 --> 00:05:53,250
Look. Chippy. Come on. You're tired.
90
00:05:54,670 --> 00:05:56,170
You just got back from LA.
91
00:05:56,590 --> 00:05:58,090
Focus on the show.
92
00:05:59,130 --> 00:06:01,510
And be patient.
93
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:03,720
Wait.
94
00:06:08,770 --> 00:06:09,930
Night, Chip.
95
00:06:10,020 --> 00:06:11,600
Yeah. Fuck you. Good night.
96
00:06:19,570 --> 00:06:21,780
And, finally, new details have emerged
97
00:06:21,860 --> 00:06:25,410
illuminating Weinstein's mind-set
in the final hours before his firing.
98
00:06:25,490 --> 00:06:29,080
In an e-mail that leaked to the press,
he wrote to his friends and colleagues,
99
00:06:29,490 --> 00:06:31,250
"I'm desperate for your help.
100
00:06:31,330 --> 00:06:33,120
Just give me the time to have therapy.
101
00:06:33,210 --> 00:06:34,500
Do not let me be fired.
102
00:06:34,580 --> 00:06:36,960
If the industry supports me,
that's all I need."
103
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,090
Wow. So interesting.
104
00:06:39,170 --> 00:06:41,800
It's a real window into how he operated
105
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,080
and how he was
able to manipulate the people around him.
106
00:06:44,130 --> 00:06:47,510
Yeah, I know. It's how the culture
of silence lasted so long.
107
00:06:52,810 --> 00:06:54,480
What the fuck am I doing?
108
00:07:31,970 --> 00:07:33,270
About a week ago,
109
00:07:33,890 --> 00:07:35,190
you jumped into an elevator
110
00:07:35,270 --> 00:07:37,690
to ask me
who else knew about what was going on.
111
00:07:38,310 --> 00:07:39,310
Yes, I did that.
112
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,690
Well, if you really wanna know,
I can give you the whole story.
113
00:07:43,780 --> 00:07:47,490
And I assure you that it is Shakespearean
in scope.
114
00:07:48,530 --> 00:07:49,950
The things that went down.
115
00:07:50,370 --> 00:07:52,370
Who knew. Who covered.
116
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,830
Well, that's a bit general.
I'm gonna need some detail.
117
00:07:58,580 --> 00:08:00,440
Actually, there's something
that I want from you,
118
00:08:00,460 --> 00:08:03,210
so I'm not gonna give up the goods
just yet.
119
00:08:03,300 --> 00:08:05,010
What could you possibly want from me?
120
00:08:06,260 --> 00:08:08,220
I want my old platform back.
121
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:09,390
To tell my story.
122
00:08:09,470 --> 00:08:13,060
I want... you to interview me on the show.
123
00:08:19,690 --> 00:08:21,940
Look, an interview is not gonna happen.
124
00:08:22,020 --> 00:08:23,900
I will tell you that right now.
125
00:08:23,980 --> 00:08:25,900
No? Why not?
126
00:08:26,650 --> 00:08:28,280
The ratings would go insane.
127
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,870
Yeah, so would the critics.
128
00:08:29,950 --> 00:08:30,950
And social media.
129
00:08:31,030 --> 00:08:34,240
And public opinion
would not be in the favor of the show.
130
00:08:35,250 --> 00:08:38,420
You don't strike me as the type of person
who gives a shit about public opinion.
131
00:08:39,580 --> 00:08:43,670
Meeting me for 30 seconds in an elevator
qualifies you to know me somehow?
132
00:08:44,090 --> 00:08:45,090
No.
133
00:08:46,210 --> 00:08:47,420
But am I wrong?
134
00:08:50,090 --> 00:08:53,970
Look, you're a journalist.
I am bringing you a story.
135
00:08:54,060 --> 00:08:56,890
Disgraced predator going home,
136
00:08:57,390 --> 00:09:01,770
talking about his reprehensible behavior.
137
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,440
And also, he lifts the veil
138
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,990
that protects
the corporate puppet masters.
139
00:09:07,610 --> 00:09:09,820
Who, quite frankly,
run the whole fucking country.
140
00:09:10,570 --> 00:09:11,620
I mean...
141
00:09:12,780 --> 00:09:13,830
come on.
142
00:09:15,950 --> 00:09:17,870
You know Alex will never go for this.
143
00:09:17,950 --> 00:09:20,830
Not in a million years.
Or Chip, for that matter.
144
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,380
No, you're right.
Alex would not wanna do it,
145
00:09:23,460 --> 00:09:25,300
for a myriad of reasons.
146
00:09:25,380 --> 00:09:29,050
The main one being,
she is hardly innocent herself.
147
00:09:32,590 --> 00:09:33,640
What are you saying?
148
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:35,800
She...
149
00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:38,270
She wasn't blind.
150
00:09:39,180 --> 00:09:41,140
And as for Chip, he's a dead man.
151
00:09:41,230 --> 00:09:44,020
There is no way he survives this.
152
00:09:45,150 --> 00:09:46,570
It's in the tea leaves.
153
00:09:46,650 --> 00:09:48,150
Can't fuck with the tea leaves.
154
00:09:51,070 --> 00:09:52,110
I know what you're doing.
155
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,830
Oh, really? Please.
Please tell me my motivation here.
156
00:09:57,910 --> 00:10:01,000
Because everybody else
is having such a good time doing that.
157
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,000
You're not doing this to be altruistic,
158
00:10:03,420 --> 00:10:06,590
to take down the big,
bad executives at UBA.
159
00:10:07,130 --> 00:10:09,800
You're doing this
'cause you're hoping to get exonerated.
160
00:10:10,590 --> 00:10:12,010
And I don't want any part of that.
161
00:10:15,010 --> 00:10:16,300
Hey, Bradley.
162
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:21,810
I have proof.
163
00:10:22,940 --> 00:10:24,560
And I can dig up some witnesses.
164
00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:27,360
What kinda witnesses?
165
00:10:27,770 --> 00:10:30,150
Off the top of my head,
I can think of one.
166
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,150
A woman I had relations with.
167
00:10:33,700 --> 00:10:36,870
She basically used me
to get a career bump.
168
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:38,450
She doesn't hate me.
169
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,160
And I think I can get her to back me up.
170
00:10:45,630 --> 00:10:48,170
I am offering you news.
171
00:10:48,250 --> 00:10:49,880
This is an important story.
172
00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:51,300
It matters.
173
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,680
It could change things. You know that.
174
00:10:58,970 --> 00:11:01,390
What if that important story
takes down the network,
175
00:11:01,470 --> 00:11:04,480
but at the same time, it takes
down the show and everybody on it?
176
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:07,810
Yeah, that could happen. That's a risk.
177
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,570
But you have to ask yourself,
is that a risk worth taking?
178
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:20,290
Anyway, let me know.
179
00:11:20,740 --> 00:11:21,750
Soon.
180
00:11:21,830 --> 00:11:24,290
Because I'm going out with this,
with or without you.
181
00:11:36,180 --> 00:11:38,430
Oh, my God. Just tell me what is going on.
182
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:40,760
I know it's something horrible.
183
00:11:42,100 --> 00:11:43,140
Is someone sick?
184
00:11:43,230 --> 00:11:44,810
- No. No. No one is sick.
- No, no. No.
185
00:11:45,390 --> 00:11:46,690
No one is sick.
186
00:11:46,770 --> 00:11:47,980
Okay, Lizzy.
187
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,150
We love you so much.
188
00:11:51,230 --> 00:11:53,490
And nothing's just gonna change.
189
00:11:54,570 --> 00:11:57,780
We're a family, and we will always...
190
00:11:57,860 --> 00:12:00,030
Okay. What are you saying? Just say it.
191
00:12:02,740 --> 00:12:05,000
Your father and I are getting a divorce.
192
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:10,880
What?
193
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,130
No, no, no.
194
00:12:12,210 --> 00:12:14,630
You told me you were separating
so you could work things out.
195
00:12:14,710 --> 00:12:16,090
How did this happen so quickly?
196
00:12:16,170 --> 00:12:17,340
That was the reason.
197
00:12:17,430 --> 00:12:19,470
It was. Honey, it was.
198
00:12:20,220 --> 00:12:21,850
So you lied to me?
199
00:12:22,510 --> 00:12:23,600
- No.
- No.
200
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:25,350
No, we did not lie to you, honey.
201
00:12:26,180 --> 00:12:27,640
And we did. We tried.
202
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:29,810
We did try.
203
00:12:30,270 --> 00:12:33,900
- Did you, Mom?
- Yes.
204
00:12:33,980 --> 00:12:35,940
How? When? How did you try?
205
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,030
- How did you ever try, Mom?
- No. Come on. Come on, Lizzy.
206
00:12:39,110 --> 00:12:40,660
It's okay. It's okay.
207
00:12:47,250 --> 00:12:50,710
I tried for years, honey.
208
00:12:52,210 --> 00:12:54,960
I don't think you tried.
I think you pretended to try.
209
00:12:56,170 --> 00:12:58,590
Our lives have always been about your job.
210
00:12:59,430 --> 00:13:02,640
And you act like that's a hardship,
but you love your job. You need it.
211
00:13:03,140 --> 00:13:06,730
- You need it more than you need us.
- No, no. That is not fair.
212
00:13:07,310 --> 00:13:10,310
That is so untrue.
213
00:13:10,730 --> 00:13:14,440
Lizzy, I love you
more than I love anything in the world.
214
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,490
You say you love us,
but we are never the priority.
215
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,200
No, Lizzy. Lizzy.
Your mother loves you very much.
216
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,660
Honey, I am doing the best that I can.
217
00:13:25,290 --> 00:13:28,500
- I did what I had to do.
- Yeah, for you.
218
00:13:29,210 --> 00:13:30,870
And we have enabled it.
219
00:13:32,170 --> 00:13:33,960
Okay. So I see the therapy's kicking in.
220
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,710
Don't make me feel bad about therapy.
221
00:13:38,590 --> 00:13:41,260
I have never had a normal family
or a normal life.
222
00:13:42,390 --> 00:13:45,010
You have never been really present
for me or for Dad.
223
00:13:45,100 --> 00:13:47,850
And we have been your cheerleaders
and your favorite assistants.
224
00:13:48,270 --> 00:13:49,810
We have not been your priorities.
225
00:13:50,980 --> 00:13:52,230
Okay.
226
00:13:55,570 --> 00:13:57,150
Lizzy, Lizzy. Lizzy.
227
00:14:00,070 --> 00:14:03,700
I was the one who asked for a divorce.
Okay?
228
00:14:04,700 --> 00:14:08,410
If that's true, it's only because
she gave you no other choice.
229
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,290
Oh, God.
230
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,260
Would you go after her? She's very upset.
231
00:14:19,300 --> 00:14:21,630
- I'm sorry.
- Oh, come on. She had to...
232
00:14:23,090 --> 00:14:24,680
She had to blame someone, you know?
233
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,430
Yeah, all right. Lizzy.
234
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:28,930
- Jesus. God.
- Lizzy.
235
00:15:14,690 --> 00:15:15,690
Oh, shit!
236
00:15:19,070 --> 00:15:20,070
Okay.
237
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,760
Shit.
238
00:15:50,010 --> 00:15:53,850
"I did abuse the power I had as president.
239
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:59,520
Or, not fulfill
the totality of the oath of office."
240
00:15:59,610 --> 00:16:01,270
That's the second thing.
241
00:16:01,780 --> 00:16:03,240
And thirdly,
242
00:16:04,950 --> 00:16:08,490
"I put the American people
through two years of needless agony,
243
00:16:08,570 --> 00:16:09,990
and I apologize for that."
244
00:16:11,620 --> 00:16:14,620
And I say
that you explained your motives...
245
00:16:16,210 --> 00:16:17,750
You don't think I still look puffy?
246
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:20,960
You think I would let you
go out there looking puffy?
247
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,300
Okay, easy.
248
00:16:22,750 --> 00:16:23,960
I guess I just feel it.
249
00:16:24,630 --> 00:16:26,630
- Thank you.
- You got it.
250
00:16:30,390 --> 00:16:31,390
Hey.
251
00:16:32,470 --> 00:16:33,890
- Yeah?
- Hey there. I was...
252
00:16:33,970 --> 00:16:34,980
Good morning.
253
00:16:35,060 --> 00:16:36,390
Just wanted to say hello.
254
00:16:39,150 --> 00:16:40,360
Yeah.
255
00:16:41,650 --> 00:16:43,280
So glad we're out of those fires.
256
00:16:45,650 --> 00:16:46,820
Yeah. Sure.
257
00:16:46,900 --> 00:16:50,200
I mean, if I had to spend
another night at the Safari Inn,
258
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,580
I think I might've... I might've just died.
259
00:16:56,580 --> 00:16:58,250
So how are you doing?
260
00:17:02,500 --> 00:17:06,090
Well, I had to tell Lizzy last night.
261
00:17:06,590 --> 00:17:07,800
Actually Jason and I.
262
00:17:09,130 --> 00:17:10,180
We told her.
263
00:17:12,010 --> 00:17:13,180
I'm so sorry.
264
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,560
Yeah.
265
00:17:17,930 --> 00:17:19,940
But hopefully
it was like ripping off a Band-Aid?
266
00:17:21,690 --> 00:17:22,690
Ripped.
267
00:17:23,110 --> 00:17:24,820
Quick and painful.
268
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,920
Do you ever just not know who you are...
269
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,550
or what you want?
270
00:17:48,340 --> 00:17:51,430
All of a sudden
you just don't feel anything?
271
00:17:58,890 --> 00:18:00,140
Some of that. Yeah.
272
00:18:01,900 --> 00:18:02,900
I don't like it.
273
00:18:06,780 --> 00:18:09,030
Is there anything I can do to be helpful?
274
00:18:09,650 --> 00:18:12,820
Yes. Could you please get the team
photo shoot taken off the schedule?
275
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,660
For later today?
276
00:18:14,740 --> 00:18:16,870
I beg of you.
The idea of fake smiling right now...
277
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,200
I know what you mean.
278
00:18:19,290 --> 00:18:21,540
Why do I feel like
I'm having yearbook anxiety?
279
00:18:21,620 --> 00:18:25,380
Because you're about to have your face
plastered all over New York City.
280
00:18:25,460 --> 00:18:28,460
- Oh, God.
- On buses, on buildings.
281
00:18:28,550 --> 00:18:30,210
I've never seen myself on a building.
282
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:31,680
Yeah.
283
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,220
Why is that necessary?
284
00:18:33,300 --> 00:18:34,340
Well,
285
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:40,770
because they have to erase Mitch Kessler
from everyone's memory.
286
00:18:44,730 --> 00:18:46,230
Like he was never here.
287
00:18:52,070 --> 00:18:53,280
Do you miss him?
288
00:18:57,120 --> 00:18:58,370
I do.
289
00:19:02,580 --> 00:19:07,210
Have you...
tried to talk to him since he was fired?
290
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,970
I've reached out to him once or twice.
291
00:19:16,340 --> 00:19:18,510
He thought hiring you was batshit crazy.
292
00:19:19,390 --> 00:19:21,810
Well, he's not wrong about that.
293
00:19:24,390 --> 00:19:29,070
Yeah. Mitch has a way
of not being wrong a lot.
294
00:19:29,570 --> 00:19:30,610
The fucker.
295
00:19:36,070 --> 00:19:38,070
Well, I guess the show has to go on.
296
00:19:38,990 --> 00:19:41,370
- Yes, it does.
- I will see you in the big teacup.
297
00:19:41,450 --> 00:19:42,620
I'll see you there.
298
00:19:43,790 --> 00:19:46,290
Hey, thanks for checking in on me.
299
00:19:47,290 --> 00:19:48,500
Yeah.
300
00:19:54,090 --> 00:19:55,510
Now, folks, if you're like me,
301
00:19:55,590 --> 00:19:59,470
you used to dream of a day when robots
are part of our everyday lives.
302
00:19:59,550 --> 00:20:02,270
So, we are pushing
the bird flu scare to the D block.
303
00:20:02,350 --> 00:20:04,680
CDC hasn't even officially responded,
so I don't know,
304
00:20:04,770 --> 00:20:06,060
fuck them and fuck the birds.
305
00:20:06,140 --> 00:20:07,540
But now we have a gap in the C block.
306
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,400
Gotta fill it quickly.
I'm open to ideas. Go.
307
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,170
Bradley's pre-tape
with the high school lacrosse coach
308
00:20:12,190 --> 00:20:14,240
who doped up his players
is in the can for tomorrow.
309
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,590
It's a really strong interview.
She holds his feet to the fire.
310
00:20:16,610 --> 00:20:18,930
It's juicy, but does it really
have the impact of the bird flu?
311
00:20:18,950 --> 00:20:21,240
It's provocative.
It's about power, manipulation.
312
00:20:21,330 --> 00:20:22,790
It has national resonance.
313
00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:24,640
What about the EPA's
new report on climate change?
314
00:20:24,660 --> 00:20:25,910
We already cut that segment.
315
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,680
- Are we reconsidering?
- The report's dry.
316
00:20:27,710 --> 00:20:29,856
- There's nothing revelatory in it.
- Fact that the human race is going
317
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,360
to burst into flames in 20 years
feels like a pretty big story.
318
00:20:32,420 --> 00:20:34,360
Really? Twenty years?
I guess I missed that section.
319
00:20:34,380 --> 00:20:36,320
- Maybe you read between the lines.
- It's not there.
320
00:20:36,340 --> 00:20:37,380
All right. Enough. Enough.
321
00:20:38,180 --> 00:20:39,366
Let's pull up Bradley's interview.
322
00:20:39,390 --> 00:20:41,240
Mia's right.
It's strong. The story's blowing up.
323
00:20:41,260 --> 00:20:43,700
Just one last thing,
the climate change report is actual news.
324
00:20:44,180 --> 00:20:45,730
Whoa. Let it go, Nicky.
325
00:20:45,810 --> 00:20:47,750
It's connected to the fires
we just spent half of the week covering.
326
00:20:47,770 --> 00:20:49,860
Stop pushing. Chip is your boss.
327
00:20:49,940 --> 00:20:52,190
Well, he's yours too,
so pull your lips off his ass.
328
00:20:52,650 --> 00:20:54,650
Everybody already knows
that's your specialty.
329
00:20:55,150 --> 00:20:58,490
Yes. Well, I will be sending
well-wishes to the whole family.
330
00:20:58,570 --> 00:21:00,410
Yes, we are. We are.
331
00:21:00,490 --> 00:21:02,870
And also,
we have exciting news in the world...
332
00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:05,200
Sorry, that was... I'm sorry, Mia.
333
00:21:05,290 --> 00:21:06,710
It's okay. Let's move on.
334
00:21:06,790 --> 00:21:09,000
Frank Marklan's explosive new book,
335
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,040
Five Days in October, was released today.
336
00:21:12,130 --> 00:21:13,630
We're not moving on.
337
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,460
Pack up your stuff. You're done.
338
00:21:17,050 --> 00:21:18,590
- What?
- Chip.
339
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,550
Get the fuck out of my control room.
340
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,180
Here in the studio
to discuss the controversial details
341
00:21:23,260 --> 00:21:24,560
he's alleging in the book.
342
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,930
I am so excited for that interview,
Bradley.
343
00:21:28,020 --> 00:21:29,020
Thank you, Alex.
344
00:21:29,100 --> 00:21:32,650
And now on to a big story
from Washington that has inter...
345
00:21:32,730 --> 00:21:35,110
Great. This is...
346
00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:37,880
Congress has been working on
a foreign aid package to help the victims.
347
00:21:37,900 --> 00:21:38,900
Awesome.
348
00:21:39,740 --> 00:21:42,570
I'm being punished for saying to her face
what every single person here
349
00:21:42,660 --> 00:21:44,720
has been already saying
behind her back for 18 months?
350
00:21:44,740 --> 00:21:46,220
- Really fucking great!
- Get the fuck out!
351
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,410
Thank you.
352
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:51,120
With the president's veto, Congress
would be sent back to square one...
353
00:21:51,210 --> 00:21:52,790
Stand by for live feed.
354
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,050
Okay. Come on. Nothing to see here.
355
00:21:55,130 --> 00:21:57,050
Got a show to do. Let's get back to work.
356
00:21:57,130 --> 00:21:59,946
Chief Washington correspondent,
Andrea Lasson, has more on this story...
357
00:21:59,970 --> 00:22:01,890
And take it live feed.
358
00:22:17,650 --> 00:22:20,256
- You have to hire him back!
- Are you fucking kidding me right now?
359
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,280
Do you think you're helping me?
Because you're not!
360
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,280
God, Mia, this is not just about you.
I'm sorry...
361
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,700
You just made everything worse!
362
00:22:25,780 --> 00:22:27,660
What the fuck do you want from me?
363
00:22:27,740 --> 00:22:28,950
I did not fuck Mitch!
364
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,750
I did not make that terrible decision!
365
00:22:30,830 --> 00:22:33,380
I'm the one who's fucking
paying for it every day!
366
00:22:38,510 --> 00:22:39,670
Look, I can't...
367
00:22:40,090 --> 00:22:43,430
I wasn't perfect. I know that.
But I can't fucking fix it all.
368
00:22:43,510 --> 00:22:46,050
That's all I'm ever going to be
to everyone here, isn't it?
369
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,020
Come on, Mia. I'm just at the end
of my rope. I'm sorry. I didn't...
370
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,900
- I have to get back to work.
- I'm sorry. Fuck.
371
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:00,900
Oh, shit.
372
00:23:02,070 --> 00:23:03,110
Oh, shit.
373
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:14,960
Weather is up after tape.
374
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,460
Over large portions of the...
375
00:23:18,250 --> 00:23:20,170
- Something you need?
- Look at your e-mail.
376
00:23:20,460 --> 00:23:21,840
- What?
- Did you get an e-mail?
377
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,430
- I get a lot of e-mails.
- Do it!
378
00:23:23,510 --> 00:23:24,510
Okay.
379
00:23:27,470 --> 00:23:28,600
Shit.
380
00:23:28,930 --> 00:23:32,350
HR. They want to speak to me.
Did you get the same thing?
381
00:23:33,020 --> 00:23:35,690
- Do they know?
- Maybe someone saw us. Someone told them.
382
00:23:36,350 --> 00:23:38,480
I feel like my body is going into shock.
383
00:23:38,570 --> 00:23:41,940
I feel weak. And clammy. What do we do?
384
00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:44,320
Don't vomit.
Just drink a little orange juice.
385
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:45,570
Yanko, I'm terrified.
386
00:23:46,990 --> 00:23:48,530
Okay. Okay. Give me this.
387
00:23:51,450 --> 00:23:53,250
Okay. Okay. Just listen to me, all right?
388
00:23:53,330 --> 00:23:58,210
We just... We go to HR together,
and we just tell them that we're dating.
389
00:23:58,290 --> 00:24:01,170
And that they should put that
on the record. We get ahead of it.
390
00:24:01,250 --> 00:24:05,010
Or I have another idea.
We go to HR, and we deny, deny.
391
00:24:05,090 --> 00:24:07,260
- No, it's not gonna work.
- It worked for Clinton.
392
00:24:07,340 --> 00:24:08,680
Clinton was impeached, okay?
393
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,850
It's right.
Clinton was impeached. I'd forgotten.
394
00:24:10,930 --> 00:24:13,036
- Thank you for the research.
- Back in 60 seconds. Throwing to Yanko.
395
00:24:13,060 --> 00:24:14,520
You got it. Thank you.
396
00:24:18,230 --> 00:24:19,230
I love you.
397
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,400
And I hate every moment
that I have to hide it.
398
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,200
I wanna take you to dinner
at a nice restaurant,
399
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,620
where we can order steak and drink wine,
400
00:24:30,700 --> 00:24:33,120
and I can hold your hand and kiss you.
401
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,040
Make really bad jokes.
402
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,340
Will you go with me?
403
00:24:41,420 --> 00:24:43,550
- Yanko.
- Now is the time.
404
00:24:53,180 --> 00:24:54,850
I'll meet you in HR.
405
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,890
After the photo shoot.
406
00:24:58,350 --> 00:24:59,350
I can't wait.
407
00:24:59,690 --> 00:25:02,110
And we're back in...
408
00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:06,490
five, four, three...
409
00:25:10,660 --> 00:25:13,370
Thank you, Andrea. Great reporting.
That was fascinating.
410
00:25:13,910 --> 00:25:17,250
Bradley was a bit of an unknown quantity
on the national stage,
411
00:25:17,330 --> 00:25:21,290
but she came to us with
an extensive body of work and experience.
412
00:25:21,380 --> 00:25:24,800
So, any hiccups we had with her
as coanchor were really because we...
413
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,260
I mean, let's face it,
414
00:25:26,340 --> 00:25:31,680
I was slow to tailor
the show to the talent, you know.
415
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,930
It's like we were forcing
Steph Curry to play in the paint.
416
00:25:36,020 --> 00:25:37,890
Which is just bad coaching, you know.
417
00:25:37,980 --> 00:25:39,850
When you got a player like Bradley,
418
00:25:39,940 --> 00:25:41,900
you hand her the ball
beyond the three-point line
419
00:25:41,980 --> 00:25:43,500
and you just give her the green light.
420
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,420
Now's really the fun part
where we get to sit back
421
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,360
and really, you know,
watch her do what she does.
422
00:25:48,450 --> 00:25:52,120
Okay. Great. That should do it.
423
00:25:54,370 --> 00:25:56,910
- That's it?
- Mm-hmm. That's it.
424
00:25:57,330 --> 00:25:59,210
With that basketball analogy,
425
00:25:59,290 --> 00:26:01,830
this profile
is practically gonna write itself.
426
00:26:03,590 --> 00:26:05,750
You didn't ask me about Mitch
or any of that stuff.
427
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,170
I don't have time for boilerplate denials.
428
00:26:08,590 --> 00:26:09,880
I've got what I need.
429
00:26:14,510 --> 00:26:15,760
You think you've got it.
430
00:26:16,890 --> 00:26:18,060
Is that right?
431
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,980
Well, I'm not writing that story anyway.
432
00:26:22,060 --> 00:26:26,230
Which, seems to me, should come
as a major relief to you, Chip.
433
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,070
Maggie, Maggie, Maggie.
434
00:26:29,740 --> 00:26:31,150
Can you do me a favor?
435
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,620
Can you fucking trust me
for a second here, please?
436
00:26:35,870 --> 00:26:36,870
What?
437
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,410
Look, I'm trying to... I can tell you...
438
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,000
I can share with you some things,
439
00:26:45,670 --> 00:26:47,590
point you toward things
440
00:26:47,670 --> 00:26:51,720
that incriminate the network
to the highest level.
441
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,470
Primarily, the highest fucking level.
442
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:01,480
Obviously this would have to be
on deep, deep fucking background.
443
00:27:02,350 --> 00:27:07,190
And if you're interested, I'd want you to
get back to me sooner rather than later.
444
00:27:09,990 --> 00:27:12,110
Do I understand what you're saying to me?
445
00:27:13,360 --> 00:27:14,820
Yes, you understand.
446
00:27:17,030 --> 00:27:18,540
This isn't like you.
447
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,830
You have the reputation as a good soldier.
448
00:27:22,500 --> 00:27:24,750
Yeah.
Well, this good soldier's not really...
449
00:27:25,500 --> 00:27:27,960
Not really sure what
he's protecting anymore, you know.
450
00:27:30,550 --> 00:27:32,840
What's making you feel bold?
451
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,010
What if it was 15 years of complicity?
452
00:27:38,430 --> 00:27:39,560
No. Sorry.
453
00:27:40,140 --> 00:27:42,230
You don't grow a conscience overnight.
454
00:27:42,850 --> 00:27:45,560
Not when you're in charge
of the jewel asset
455
00:27:45,650 --> 00:27:47,940
of a multibillion-dollar corporation.
456
00:27:48,020 --> 00:27:49,570
You grow a conscience...
457
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:55,410
when someone from that corporation
gives you permission to have one.
458
00:27:58,070 --> 00:28:00,450
Maggie,
I'm offering you a really good story here.
459
00:28:00,540 --> 00:28:02,620
And I'm looking for the better one.
460
00:28:05,370 --> 00:28:06,370
Okay.
461
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,250
Let's both think about it,
and I'll call you.
462
00:28:21,470 --> 00:28:25,310
Cory, my office is going to reach out
to yours about setting a meeting.
463
00:28:25,730 --> 00:28:26,940
Okay.
464
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,940
Fun. Who with?
465
00:28:29,020 --> 00:28:30,730
No. Don't tell me. I like to be surprised.
466
00:28:30,820 --> 00:28:32,110
It's with Marlon Tate.
467
00:28:32,190 --> 00:28:34,740
Potential EP candidate
for The Morning Show.
468
00:28:39,030 --> 00:28:40,740
Chip finally had that heart attack?
469
00:28:40,830 --> 00:28:42,540
Damn it. Condolences.
470
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,160
The internal investigation
will wrap up soon.
471
00:28:45,250 --> 00:28:46,850
We don't know what will be in the report,
472
00:28:46,870 --> 00:28:49,790
and we need
to be ready with contingencies.
473
00:28:50,210 --> 00:28:52,460
Marlon's good. I've known him for years.
474
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,300
Came up in evening news,
but he gets the morning audience.
475
00:28:55,380 --> 00:28:57,380
Thank you for the recommendation, Fred.
476
00:28:57,970 --> 00:28:59,590
It's not a recommendation.
477
00:29:00,550 --> 00:29:01,600
Marlon's the guy.
478
00:29:09,310 --> 00:29:10,520
I hear you, Fred.
479
00:29:11,690 --> 00:29:14,900
And as head of the news division,
I'll take it under advisement.
480
00:29:20,910 --> 00:29:22,950
Is there something
you'd like to say to me?
481
00:29:27,870 --> 00:29:28,870
Yes.
482
00:29:32,540 --> 00:29:34,920
- Are you happy, Fred?
- 'Scuse me?
483
00:29:35,010 --> 00:29:37,420
Are you like a happy person in life?
484
00:29:37,510 --> 00:29:39,930
I know you have a wife,
a couple houses and a network,
485
00:29:40,010 --> 00:29:43,010
but you don't seem very fulfilled
by any of it.
486
00:29:43,100 --> 00:29:45,390
I honestly
don't think I've ever seen you smile
487
00:29:45,470 --> 00:29:47,270
for more than a second or two in a row.
488
00:29:47,350 --> 00:29:50,810
Which is too bad,
because smiling, it's fun to smile.
489
00:29:50,900 --> 00:29:52,150
It feels good.
490
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,900
You should spend
more time doing things that you enjoy.
491
00:29:54,980 --> 00:29:57,650
Maybe you'll have more time
to do that soon. I sure hope so.
492
00:29:57,740 --> 00:30:01,280
It's just some personal advice.
Take it or leave it.
493
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,910
I thought I'd share...
494
00:30:04,700 --> 00:30:08,410
before you find yourself
left with nothing but a permanent frown.
495
00:30:12,580 --> 00:30:14,590
Let me know how it goes with Marlon.
496
00:30:28,230 --> 00:30:33,480
Okay. So, unfortunately,
this is not the best time to get divorced.
497
00:30:35,980 --> 00:30:39,950
Are you suggesting that there
is a good time to get divorced?
498
00:30:40,610 --> 00:30:43,740
Well, if someone
has been the victim of abuse,
499
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,040
filing for divorce
is perceived to be empowering.
500
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,660
It's someone taking back
the reins on their own life.
501
00:30:50,830 --> 00:30:53,420
- Is there anything there?
- Abuse?
502
00:30:57,210 --> 00:31:00,510
Nope. No abuse. Bummer.
503
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,260
Yeah, cross that off.
504
00:31:02,340 --> 00:31:05,220
Oh, my gosh.
Are you really kidding me with this?
505
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,560
It's a marriage. Marriages end.
I mean, my God.
506
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,400
Especially celebrity marriages,
they should be measured in dog years.
507
00:31:15,610 --> 00:31:18,230
Jason and I would be celebrating
140 years.
508
00:31:19,030 --> 00:31:20,110
Success.
509
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,400
That's not how people are gonna see it.
510
00:31:22,490 --> 00:31:25,990
First of all, they're gonna wonder
if you were having an affair with Mitch.
511
00:31:26,410 --> 00:31:28,290
- And if you did, that's okay.
- Okay.
512
00:31:28,370 --> 00:31:30,660
You just... should tell us.
513
00:31:30,750 --> 00:31:32,790
- It's better to get ahead of these things.
- Right.
514
00:31:32,830 --> 00:31:37,250
Either way, people are definitely
going to notice that Mitch's wife
515
00:31:37,340 --> 00:31:40,840
filed for divorce
right before your divorce was announced.
516
00:31:41,420 --> 00:31:45,220
And then there's the matter
of which of you files for the divorce.
517
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,640
If you file, people will think
that it makes you look heartless.
518
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,430
If Jason files, people will think
that he caught you with another man.
519
00:31:52,850 --> 00:31:56,650
Either that or he just couldn't put up
with a high-maintenance celebrity anymore,
520
00:31:56,730 --> 00:31:58,440
which makes you read pathetic.
521
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:03,280
Unless of course, Jason was cheating
on you with, let's say, a younger woman.
522
00:32:03,610 --> 00:32:05,110
That plays well.
523
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,030
People will look at you with pity.
524
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,160
But it's pity mixed with sympathy,
525
00:32:09,700 --> 00:32:11,910
so definitely let us know about that.
526
00:32:17,250 --> 00:32:20,300
Daniel, your show is a fucking car crash.
527
00:32:20,750 --> 00:32:24,420
Even I'm watching.
I mean, Alex crying over that fucking dog.
528
00:32:24,510 --> 00:32:26,970
Who would turn away?
But it's not gonna last.
529
00:32:28,010 --> 00:32:30,430
Look, you're on the winning team for now.
530
00:32:30,510 --> 00:32:32,930
But the real beauty
about being on the number-two show
531
00:32:33,020 --> 00:32:36,980
is that they will spend whatever it takes
on talent to get them to number one.
532
00:32:37,060 --> 00:32:39,610
The remuneration at UBA is not my problem.
533
00:32:39,690 --> 00:32:40,690
What is your problem?
534
00:32:40,770 --> 00:32:45,030
Because my problem is UBA
parading around a couple of white women
535
00:32:45,110 --> 00:32:48,450
to show how progressive the network is
for having two female coanchors
536
00:32:48,530 --> 00:32:50,250
while the brown people
are left to make sure
537
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,480
that the trains
of their dresses don't touch the ground.
538
00:32:52,540 --> 00:32:54,750
I would be outraged.
539
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:56,960
This is the thing that outrages me.
540
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:02,000
TMS pulled me from a job
which I actually liked,
541
00:33:02,670 --> 00:33:04,710
wooed me based on my political acumen,
542
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,720
promised me a space
to do what I love to do.
543
00:33:09,590 --> 00:33:13,640
Instead,
they have me doing the fucking Twist.
544
00:33:14,310 --> 00:33:19,940
So while, once again,
my ego loves that you're interested in me,
545
00:33:20,940 --> 00:33:24,650
my fear is that YDA
would just be a lateral move
546
00:33:24,730 --> 00:33:26,950
to a longer version of The Twist.
547
00:33:28,450 --> 00:33:30,160
I want to do the news.
548
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,370
I want people to be excited about it.
549
00:33:32,830 --> 00:33:34,450
And I want that to be enough.
550
00:33:37,370 --> 00:33:40,830
See? This is why I want you on YDA.
551
00:33:41,250 --> 00:33:46,800
Daniel, you are a beautiful, deep-feeling,
boring man who loves hard news.
552
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,220
- I'm not kidding.
- Neither am I.
553
00:33:49,300 --> 00:33:51,430
Okay, people watch YDA because it's fun.
554
00:33:51,510 --> 00:33:54,890
It's light, it's poppy.
And Jimmy and I, we have that covered.
555
00:33:54,970 --> 00:33:58,850
Hell, I enjoy interviewing the surviving
members of the Bay City Rollers.
556
00:33:58,940 --> 00:34:01,940
But we are never going
to beat TMS by being fun.
557
00:34:02,020 --> 00:34:05,440
We need boring. We need gravitas.
558
00:34:05,530 --> 00:34:07,490
We need political credibility.
559
00:34:07,570 --> 00:34:09,490
And you have that coming out the wazoo.
560
00:34:09,570 --> 00:34:11,200
TMS is vulnerable right now.
561
00:34:12,530 --> 00:34:14,530
There are people there that I care about,
562
00:34:14,990 --> 00:34:17,540
people that would be hurt if I jump.
563
00:34:18,500 --> 00:34:19,660
Alison, Yanko...
564
00:34:19,750 --> 00:34:23,540
Yes. I know. Your lovely friends
at the Minority Report.
565
00:34:23,630 --> 00:34:25,300
- Low blow.
- Accurate.
566
00:34:26,130 --> 00:34:29,420
Still. It's not easy.
567
00:34:30,090 --> 00:34:33,220
Well, the TMS family is broken,
568
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,470
and it never really included anyone
whose name wasn't Mitch or Alex.
569
00:34:41,980 --> 00:34:45,650
And, you know, if you've
seen it on WebMD or something.
570
00:34:45,730 --> 00:34:47,796
As soon as possible,
but tell them I don't wanna know.
571
00:34:47,820 --> 00:34:49,240
- All right.
- Thank you.
572
00:34:50,610 --> 00:34:51,990
Where's the rest of the family?
573
00:34:52,070 --> 00:34:54,160
I don't know.
Maybe they're walking the dog.
574
00:34:54,780 --> 00:34:55,990
Funny kind of family.
575
00:34:56,910 --> 00:34:59,660
Yep. Dysfunctional.
576
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,580
Just like a real family.
577
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:04,380
All right. I'm back.
578
00:35:04,460 --> 00:35:05,540
All here.
579
00:35:05,630 --> 00:35:07,840
Let's capture this happy shit.
580
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:11,800
- Can I talk to you for a second?
- Yeah.
581
00:35:13,930 --> 00:35:14,930
Yeah.
582
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:21,020
So, apparently I have to announce
my divorce on the show sometime next week.
583
00:35:21,100 --> 00:35:22,980
- Gosh. I'm sorry.
- That's okay.
584
00:35:23,060 --> 00:35:26,860
I just wanted to give you the heads-up.
So, be prepared for some awkward airtime.
585
00:35:26,940 --> 00:35:28,900
Well, awkward airtime is my specialty.
586
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,070
But thank you for the heads-up.
587
00:35:31,150 --> 00:35:34,200
Yeah. And obviously this stays between us.
588
00:35:34,610 --> 00:35:36,070
- Of course.
- Okay. Thank you.
589
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,280
I just have to be
so careful about what I say.
590
00:35:38,700 --> 00:35:42,620
I mean, I just met with this PR woman
who scared the crap out of me.
591
00:35:43,210 --> 00:35:47,130
Reminded me that I'm walking
into this land mine of speculation and...
592
00:35:47,670 --> 00:35:51,340
about my marriage and my sanity and...
593
00:35:52,170 --> 00:35:53,340
Mitch.
594
00:35:53,970 --> 00:35:55,970
Fuck, I don't know, you and me.
595
00:35:56,050 --> 00:35:57,600
Maybe you and I are in love.
596
00:35:58,100 --> 00:35:59,720
God, that would be preferable.
597
00:36:00,470 --> 00:36:03,850
Well, that all sounds brutal.
I'm here if you need anything.
598
00:36:04,690 --> 00:36:05,690
Okay?
599
00:36:05,770 --> 00:36:06,900
Wait.
600
00:36:07,940 --> 00:36:08,980
Actually.
601
00:36:10,900 --> 00:36:13,030
Maybe we could work on something together?
602
00:36:14,650 --> 00:36:16,070
For your divorce announcement?
603
00:36:16,530 --> 00:36:19,870
Yeah. I mean, you're sitting right there
604
00:36:19,950 --> 00:36:21,490
- when I have to do it.
- Right.
605
00:36:21,580 --> 00:36:23,620
You know,
we could make it into a dialogue.
606
00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:27,460
And since your specialty seems to be...
607
00:36:31,050 --> 00:36:32,260
being human.
608
00:36:33,050 --> 00:36:34,090
Couldn't hurt.
609
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,310
I mean, we could workshop it
over dinner tonight at my apartment.
610
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,560
- That would be great.
- Yeah?
611
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,350
No. Yeah. I would love that.
612
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:46,730
I'll bring some food.
613
00:36:46,810 --> 00:36:48,416
You don't have to do that.
I have it covered.
614
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:49,940
- Okay.
- Okay, ladies.
615
00:36:50,020 --> 00:36:51,836
- Yeah.
- You look beautiful. And you're ready.
616
00:36:51,860 --> 00:36:53,110
So, what do you say we do this?
617
00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:54,190
All right.
618
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,510
- Let's go be a family.
- Oh, God.
619
00:36:55,530 --> 00:36:56,860
- Pictures.
- Okay, guys. Come on.
620
00:36:56,950 --> 00:36:58,220
- Here we go.
- Happy. Happiness.
621
00:36:58,240 --> 00:37:00,490
Happy family. Good. One, two, three.
622
00:37:00,580 --> 00:37:01,580
Good. Big smiles.
623
00:37:01,660 --> 00:37:03,450
Tilt your hips
towards me a tiny bit. Good.
624
00:37:03,540 --> 00:37:05,936
- That looks good. Right there. Freeze.
- Serious or smiling?
625
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,560
That's nice.
Right there. That's a good shot.
626
00:37:07,580 --> 00:37:09,880
One, two, three.
Good. Chins up a little bit.
627
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,090
Shift a little bit this way
so you can lean in.
628
00:37:12,170 --> 00:37:14,090
Good. Good. Smile. Great. Good idea.
629
00:37:14,170 --> 00:37:15,900
- Beautiful.
- Everybody knows this is my wrong side...
630
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:17,630
There is no wrong side for you. Stop it.
631
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:19,800
- I had caffeine.
- Thank you.
632
00:37:20,350 --> 00:37:22,180
Good. Bradley, chin up a little bit?
633
00:37:22,260 --> 00:37:25,020
One, two, three. Good. Big smiles.
There we go.
634
00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:38,200
You know, Nicky was just making a joke.
635
00:37:39,610 --> 00:37:41,120
He's a good kid.
636
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,120
Shouldn't have his life ruined
over making a joke.
637
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,370
- I mean, he apologized.
- I didn't fire him. Chip fired him.
638
00:37:48,670 --> 00:37:49,920
If you say so.
639
00:37:50,750 --> 00:37:53,340
Bart, drop it.
640
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,840
Yeah. I'll drop it.
641
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,640
Some other people
are never gonna drop it though.
642
00:38:21,450 --> 00:38:22,620
Hi, everyone.
643
00:38:24,240 --> 00:38:25,660
Can I have your attention, please?
644
00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:30,080
It's Mia Jordan here.
645
00:38:30,170 --> 00:38:32,670
- Can I have everyone's attention?
- What is that?
646
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,000
Hi.
647
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,840
I'm the scorned, oversensitive woman
648
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,470
- who screwed the lead anchor...
- Oh, fuck.
649
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:42,090
To help her career.
650
00:38:42,180 --> 00:38:44,800
And got him fired
651
00:38:45,310 --> 00:38:47,350
when he didn't want to leave his wife.
652
00:38:47,430 --> 00:38:48,850
And now I'm out for blood.
653
00:38:48,930 --> 00:38:51,900
So, everybody with a dick
better be careful
654
00:38:51,980 --> 00:38:53,650
'cause she hates dicks now.
655
00:38:57,230 --> 00:38:59,240
Dicks, beware!
656
00:39:00,700 --> 00:39:03,200
Don't leave your home at night
without an escort,
657
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:09,000
because the vengeful,
slutty, feminist bitch,
658
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,080
Mia Jordan, is out there somewhere.
659
00:39:12,170 --> 00:39:13,540
Well, should we do something here?
660
00:39:13,630 --> 00:39:15,920
No, no, we should let her speak.
Let her speak.
661
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,170
- Look, Mia, I'm sorry.
- You can shut the fuck up, Bart.
662
00:39:19,260 --> 00:39:21,340
Okay, everyone, I got it.
663
00:39:25,180 --> 00:39:27,560
I'm well aware
of what everyone is saying about me.
664
00:39:29,390 --> 00:39:31,850
And now apparently,
665
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,110
I personally got Nicky fired,
and I leaked about Mitch to the Times,
666
00:39:37,190 --> 00:39:40,320
and I'm sure I'm also the Zodiac Killer,
667
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,110
and I probably assassinated
Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
668
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,950
I mean, this fucking list goes on.
669
00:39:45,030 --> 00:39:47,280
And I could deny a lot of that.
670
00:39:47,370 --> 00:39:49,040
Most of it is lies.
671
00:39:49,950 --> 00:39:53,040
Bullshit gossip. But I am just so...
672
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,790
fucking tired.
673
00:40:04,220 --> 00:40:06,260
I don't have the energy to deny it.
674
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,560
What's the point, anyway?
675
00:40:12,770 --> 00:40:15,350
Everybody's already decided
what they believe.
676
00:40:16,020 --> 00:40:18,270
Some of you hate me, some of you pity me,
677
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,070
some of you think I'm a victim,
678
00:40:20,150 --> 00:40:21,900
some of you think I'm a slut.
679
00:40:25,450 --> 00:40:28,160
Everybody's got their fucking opinions,
and you know what?
680
00:40:30,700 --> 00:40:31,830
Have 'em.
681
00:40:33,410 --> 00:40:35,830
I just wanna move on with my fucking life.
682
00:40:37,750 --> 00:40:39,460
Mia, if you wanna just put the mike...
683
00:40:39,540 --> 00:40:43,050
Chip, I'm almost done here, unless you
wanna join in, make this a dialogue here.
684
00:40:46,010 --> 00:40:47,180
Okay, go ahead.
685
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:51,970
We're all human.
686
00:40:55,020 --> 00:40:56,350
We all have regrets.
687
00:40:59,020 --> 00:41:02,440
No matter which side
of that Me Too line you fall on,
688
00:41:02,530 --> 00:41:05,900
we are all just people
who wanna do our jobs,
689
00:41:06,700 --> 00:41:07,910
do good work.
690
00:41:09,740 --> 00:41:13,330
So, that's what I'm gonna focus on.
691
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:16,120
My work.
692
00:41:19,540 --> 00:41:21,590
'Cause I'd like to be known in this world
693
00:41:21,670 --> 00:41:23,920
for something other than
fucking Mitch Kessler,
694
00:41:24,010 --> 00:41:26,300
and I think I deserve that opportunity.
695
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:49,910
All right, everybody. Let's...
696
00:41:52,030 --> 00:41:54,410
Let's take that good advice and...
697
00:41:56,370 --> 00:41:57,620
and get back to work.
698
00:42:04,710 --> 00:42:07,090
Mia. Hey.
699
00:42:07,170 --> 00:42:08,180
Bradley.
700
00:42:09,010 --> 00:42:11,340
God, I should've told you.
I wanted to be your producer.
701
00:42:11,430 --> 00:42:14,760
- I didn't want you to think less of me...
- Please. I don't.
702
00:42:15,220 --> 00:42:16,220
I don't.
703
00:42:16,810 --> 00:42:18,940
And I'm so glad you did that just now.
704
00:42:19,730 --> 00:42:23,770
I'm just so sorry that
you've had to deal with this by yourself.
705
00:42:25,940 --> 00:42:27,280
Thank you.
706
00:42:29,030 --> 00:42:31,740
Okay, so... Look,
we gotta prep a show for tomorrow.
707
00:42:31,820 --> 00:42:33,580
- Okay.
- Meet you in your office in ten?
708
00:42:33,660 --> 00:42:35,080
Yeah. Sounds great.
709
00:42:39,790 --> 00:42:41,080
Now, Claire,
710
00:42:41,170 --> 00:42:44,960
Mr. Flores has stated that he'd like to go
on public record about this relationship.
711
00:42:45,050 --> 00:42:46,590
Well, he spoke,
712
00:42:46,670 --> 00:42:49,550
but we'd both like to
go on record publicly,
713
00:42:50,550 --> 00:42:53,300
but ideally confidentially,
if that's an option.
714
00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:58,560
Well, what I need to better understand
is how this relationship began.
715
00:42:59,850 --> 00:43:02,600
Did you initiate an intimate relationship?
716
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,070
No, I did not.
No. And I never would've thought of that.
717
00:43:06,150 --> 00:43:08,570
No, we became friends, you know?
718
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,280
Claire would...
She'd come in with her research,
719
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:16,080
and she was willing to listen and
genuinely engage with my work.
720
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:17,990
Which is not always the case.
721
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:19,200
People rely on the weather,
722
00:43:19,290 --> 00:43:21,710
but they have a problem
taking it seriously.
723
00:43:21,790 --> 00:43:22,790
Not Claire.
724
00:43:22,870 --> 00:43:26,590
His brain is just really fucking sexy.
725
00:43:26,670 --> 00:43:30,420
It didn't seem like a crime to
transition that feeling into actual sex.
726
00:43:30,510 --> 00:43:31,630
I never said it was a crime.
727
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,800
I'm merely asking how
your first sexual encounter came about.
728
00:43:36,140 --> 00:43:38,810
"Merely asking." That's a very polite way
729
00:43:38,890 --> 00:43:41,390
to ask something that's
really none of your business.
730
00:43:41,810 --> 00:43:44,730
No. I was the one who stopped the kiss.
731
00:43:46,150 --> 00:43:48,980
Look, of course I worried
that it was inappropriate.
732
00:43:50,610 --> 00:43:53,030
I was in deep denial
about my own feelings.
733
00:43:53,110 --> 00:43:55,910
I was. She was completely unfazed.
734
00:43:55,990 --> 00:43:58,120
I mean, she told me that she liked me,
735
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,290
and that she liked me for a while.
736
00:44:00,370 --> 00:44:02,290
And I was knocked back by that.
737
00:44:02,370 --> 00:44:04,290
Yes, we had sex that night.
738
00:44:04,370 --> 00:44:06,290
Yes, it was at Yanko's apartment.
739
00:44:06,380 --> 00:44:08,550
But only because
he's the one who knows how to cook,
740
00:44:08,630 --> 00:44:10,550
and I like a good fucking paella.
741
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,300
Then I asked her to dinner,
742
00:44:12,380 --> 00:44:15,050
and we both just thought
it was smarter to keep it private.
743
00:44:15,140 --> 00:44:18,970
Look, I hit on him. I'm the creep here.
744
00:44:19,390 --> 00:44:21,520
I never said either of you were creeps.
745
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,810
But that's the implication, isn't it?
746
00:44:23,890 --> 00:44:25,930
That he has to have been
tricking me into liking him
747
00:44:25,980 --> 00:44:29,400
because of the very nature
of his professional position of power.
748
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,030
We've thought many, many times
about coming forward and...
749
00:44:32,110 --> 00:44:34,530
And yet only when summoned
did you actually come...
750
00:44:34,610 --> 00:44:37,240
Right. And you could
choose to indict us for that.
751
00:44:37,660 --> 00:44:40,910
And you could choose
to compare the nature of our relationship
752
00:44:40,990 --> 00:44:43,120
with the despicable acts
committed by Mitch Kessler.
753
00:44:43,210 --> 00:44:45,210
You have to understand something, Sheila.
754
00:44:45,540 --> 00:44:48,960
That was the very fear
that motivated us to stay silent.
755
00:44:49,630 --> 00:44:53,260
Has Mr. Flores ever asked you
to do things you're uncomfortable with?
756
00:44:56,300 --> 00:44:57,300
No.
757
00:44:58,050 --> 00:44:59,050
Never?
758
00:44:59,970 --> 00:45:03,100
Well, I suppose he asked me to come here,
and now I feel uncomfortable.
759
00:45:07,230 --> 00:45:10,440
Look, the work you do
here in this room is noble.
760
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,740
Okay? And I appreciate
all of the tough questions, I do.
761
00:45:13,820 --> 00:45:19,200
But Claire and I hope that
we can represent a new way to navigate
762
00:45:19,950 --> 00:45:22,290
this kind of a workplace relationship.
763
00:45:22,370 --> 00:45:26,370
Would you consider
your relationship with Mr. Flores serious?
764
00:45:28,750 --> 00:45:30,340
Why is that relevant?
765
00:45:30,750 --> 00:45:32,840
Because it's our job to examine
766
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,130
whether the two of you working
in the same environment is sustainable.
767
00:45:38,220 --> 00:45:40,760
- Are you saying I could be fired?
- Well, it's just...
768
00:45:40,850 --> 00:45:42,890
But you're not going
to fire the fucking weatherman.
769
00:45:42,970 --> 00:45:45,036
Claire, I'm not saying that
anything's gonna happen to anyone.
770
00:45:45,060 --> 00:45:48,400
I really don't want to be here.
This was a mistake.
771
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:49,600
Do you need a minute?
772
00:45:49,690 --> 00:45:51,400
No, I need to get out
of this fucking room.
773
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,030
Claire, it's our responsibility
to ask these questions.
774
00:45:54,110 --> 00:45:57,360
And I feel like
I'm still entitled to a shred of privacy.
775
00:45:57,450 --> 00:45:58,990
You chose to come here.
776
00:45:59,070 --> 00:46:00,740
I didn't choose anything.
777
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:02,240
Claire?
778
00:46:02,330 --> 00:46:03,490
What?
779
00:46:03,580 --> 00:46:05,910
Do you need help
getting out of this relationship?
780
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:09,080
Oh, my God.
781
00:46:20,050 --> 00:46:22,300
- Oh, my God. You okay?
- I'm not sure.
782
00:46:22,390 --> 00:46:24,600
- What can they do? What can...
- Yanko! Careful.
783
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,680
- I know.
- People.
784
00:46:25,770 --> 00:46:28,190
I know, I know.
I'm just... I'm so relieved.
785
00:46:28,270 --> 00:46:29,480
I think we might be okay.
786
00:46:30,020 --> 00:46:31,270
How was it for you?
787
00:46:31,350 --> 00:46:33,190
- Hard to describe in a...
- Hi.
788
00:46:34,110 --> 00:46:36,030
Good night, Yanko.
789
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,410
Hey. I will get you that research
on the Holmes interview in an hour or so.
790
00:46:40,490 --> 00:46:41,610
- Is that okay?
- Yeah, yeah.
791
00:46:41,660 --> 00:46:43,200
- Good night, Claire.
- Good night.
792
00:46:45,290 --> 00:46:46,910
- Hey.
- Hey.
793
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:49,370
- How are you?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
794
00:46:49,460 --> 00:46:52,210
Sorry, I'm just thinking about rain,
you know?
795
00:46:52,290 --> 00:46:54,670
It's likely to rain tomorrow,
so opt for rain boots.
796
00:46:54,750 --> 00:46:57,960
Noted. Hey, is Claire all right?
797
00:46:59,970 --> 00:47:01,680
Yeah, yeah, I think she's okay.
798
00:47:02,510 --> 00:47:05,760
- All right.
- Yeah. She's incredibly talented. Yeah.
799
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,430
I'm really glad you saw that
and gave her an opportunity.
800
00:47:22,240 --> 00:47:25,530
- Hey.
- Hey. Fancy meeting you here.
801
00:47:25,620 --> 00:47:26,990
What are the odds?
802
00:47:34,210 --> 00:47:35,460
It's okay. Don't be embarrassed
803
00:47:35,540 --> 00:47:37,230
that you were waiting
by the elevator for an hour
804
00:47:37,250 --> 00:47:39,550
hoping you would
catch me leaving the office.
805
00:47:39,630 --> 00:47:40,800
You're funny.
806
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,340
It's sort of silly
we're going back to the same place.
807
00:47:44,430 --> 00:47:46,430
It's like we live in the same dorm
or something.
808
00:47:46,510 --> 00:47:47,510
I got a crazy idea.
809
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,640
Why don't we tell our cars to fuck off
and walk back to the hotel?
810
00:47:50,730 --> 00:47:52,190
Why are we being driven?
811
00:47:52,270 --> 00:47:55,270
We're in New York fucking City.
Let's go get in it.
812
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,190
Wow. Someone in this building
wants to get into the actual street?
813
00:47:58,280 --> 00:47:59,530
- Yeah.
- Let's do it.
814
00:47:59,610 --> 00:48:00,650
Oh, yeah.
815
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:08,240
So, it must've been nice to be at home
last week. Sleep in your own bed?
816
00:48:08,330 --> 00:48:12,080
Nah, I spent most of the time
in a screening room watching pilots.
817
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:13,290
Oh. Anything good?
818
00:48:14,210 --> 00:48:17,340
You know, a month ago or so
I might've said yes,
819
00:48:17,420 --> 00:48:20,170
but I had this very funny realization
820
00:48:20,260 --> 00:48:23,800
while I was sitting there watching
this expensive and amazing fiction...
821
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,850
- Yeah.
- Which is truth is stranger than fiction.
822
00:48:27,930 --> 00:48:31,180
- I mean, the shows were... They were fine.
- Yeah.
823
00:48:31,270 --> 00:48:32,870
Some of them were pretty good, actually.
824
00:48:32,930 --> 00:48:35,060
But it's just not the same as the truth.
Real life.
825
00:48:35,810 --> 00:48:38,230
I'm into that shit right now, Bradley.
Thanks a lot.
826
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:40,780
I like the truth.
827
00:48:40,860 --> 00:48:43,360
Although it's bit me in the ass
more times than I can count,
828
00:48:43,450 --> 00:48:44,530
but I do like it.
829
00:48:45,530 --> 00:48:47,530
Hey. Let's do something stupid.
830
00:48:47,620 --> 00:48:48,870
You wanna do something stupid?
831
00:48:48,950 --> 00:48:51,620
- Depends on what you mean by stupid.
- Here's what I'm thinking.
832
00:48:51,700 --> 00:48:54,460
We hustle up to Central Park
and find that fucking carousel.
833
00:48:54,540 --> 00:48:56,060
No, no, no. We'll go for a carriage ride.
834
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,090
It'll be really politically incorrect
and stupidly fun.
835
00:48:59,710 --> 00:49:02,300
As much as, in general, I love stupid fun,
836
00:49:02,380 --> 00:49:06,890
I... I kinda just need
to figure some stuff out right now.
837
00:49:06,970 --> 00:49:08,800
- All right.
- But can I get a rain check?
838
00:49:10,470 --> 00:49:12,770
Well, it's a limited-time-only offer.
839
00:49:13,180 --> 00:49:15,020
Shut up. No, it's not.
840
00:49:33,500 --> 00:49:35,580
- Hi, honey.
- What are you doing here?
841
00:49:37,710 --> 00:49:39,000
I come bearing pizza.
842
00:49:39,790 --> 00:49:40,790
I already ate.
843
00:49:43,090 --> 00:49:45,170
Honey, I really want to talk to you.
844
00:49:45,590 --> 00:49:47,130
Samantha is here.
845
00:49:47,220 --> 00:49:49,680
Hey, I was just gonna
run over to the library.
846
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:51,890
Hi, Sam. How are you, honey?
847
00:49:51,970 --> 00:49:54,100
Hi, Alex. I'm fine.
848
00:49:58,690 --> 00:50:00,440
Come in, I guess.
849
00:50:01,730 --> 00:50:04,690
I should've told you that I was coming.
850
00:50:05,110 --> 00:50:06,320
Yeah, maybe.
851
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:13,200
What?
852
00:50:13,620 --> 00:50:15,750
Wow. Okay.
853
00:50:20,250 --> 00:50:22,500
I'm sorry I broke your heart.
854
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,260
I'm so sorry.
855
00:50:28,550 --> 00:50:29,800
Why is this happening now?
856
00:50:32,140 --> 00:50:34,300
Does it have something
to do with all this Mitch stuff?
857
00:50:36,980 --> 00:50:39,270
No. Of course not.
858
00:50:39,350 --> 00:50:40,400
Really?
859
00:50:41,060 --> 00:50:43,900
Because you've been
melting down ever since he left,
860
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,030
doing all this crazy stuff.
861
00:50:48,860 --> 00:50:50,280
"Melting down"?
862
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,820
Is that how you characterize
what I've been going through?
863
00:50:52,910 --> 00:50:55,740
Announcing Bradley Jackson
out of nowhere like that?
864
00:50:56,290 --> 00:50:59,500
The whole Page Six thing with you
wandering through the halls at work.
865
00:50:59,580 --> 00:51:02,500
Lizzy. How do you read Page Six
and believe it?
866
00:51:07,210 --> 00:51:08,760
Okay. Lizzy...
867
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,180
I know this hurts.
868
00:51:18,230 --> 00:51:20,390
It doesn't hurt you. You don't care.
869
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:21,650
What?
870
00:51:22,060 --> 00:51:26,230
Dad loves you so much.
He does everything for you.
871
00:51:27,900 --> 00:51:29,530
Why isn't he good enough?
872
00:51:29,610 --> 00:51:33,660
Honey, this... This has nothing to do
with your father not being good enough.
873
00:51:33,740 --> 00:51:36,450
He's smart. He's handsome. He's funny.
874
00:51:36,540 --> 00:51:38,620
He's a respected professor at NYU.
875
00:51:38,700 --> 00:51:42,580
He's written best-selling books
on world economics, for fuck's sake.
876
00:51:42,670 --> 00:51:44,630
I know all of that, honey.
I know all of it.
877
00:51:44,710 --> 00:51:47,130
Then how can you be so selfish?
878
00:51:56,300 --> 00:52:01,560
Oh, Lizzy. Honey.
The thing is you're only seeing this
879
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,600
from the part that you can see,
and that's as it should be.
880
00:52:06,770 --> 00:52:10,650
But 25 years is a really long time.
881
00:52:13,700 --> 00:52:15,910
We were two completely different people
when we met.
882
00:52:17,410 --> 00:52:18,410
And we just...
883
00:52:21,750 --> 00:52:24,460
I just don't feel the same way anymore.
884
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,420
And I haven't for years.
885
00:52:28,590 --> 00:52:31,010
And I have tried, baby. I've tried.
886
00:52:33,010 --> 00:52:35,590
And I can't tell you how lonely I've been.
887
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,270
And I know this makes you angry and hurt.
888
00:52:41,890 --> 00:52:45,100
But I just want you to try to see
that there is a bigger picture here.
889
00:52:45,190 --> 00:52:48,230
Well, I can't right now, Mom.
I'm too fucking hurt and angry.
890
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,280
Okay. No, honey, let's just...
Please, come on.
891
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,490
We've always been there for each other.
Always.
892
00:52:56,740 --> 00:52:59,700
You're my baby.
Let's just not do this right now.
893
00:52:59,780 --> 00:53:01,120
You need to leave.
894
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,210
I can't even believe
what you're doing now.
895
00:53:05,330 --> 00:53:07,250
What am... What am I doing?
896
00:53:07,330 --> 00:53:10,130
I'm not going
to take care of you right now.
897
00:53:20,100 --> 00:53:22,890
Okay. Okay. Then I will leave.
898
00:53:22,970 --> 00:53:26,270
Great. Go share it with America.
They'll take care of you.
899
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,150
Well, fuck you, kid. Fuck you!
900
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:32,730
Did you really just say that?
901
00:53:32,820 --> 00:53:34,780
Yeah, I did. I just said, "Fuck you."
902
00:53:35,650 --> 00:53:38,110
And, I mean, how fucking dare you.
903
00:53:38,870 --> 00:53:42,580
After all that I have done
and all that I have given to you.
904
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,120
My life. My love. My body.
905
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,880
I broke my fucking vagina
with that big, fucking head of yours.
906
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:52,960
And I had to be surgically
sewn back together.
907
00:53:53,050 --> 00:53:54,490
I bet you didn't know that, did you?
908
00:53:54,970 --> 00:53:57,720
Oh, and effing just staying
with your father
909
00:53:58,260 --> 00:54:02,680
after all these years of him driving me
insane with his condescending "my loves."
910
00:54:03,100 --> 00:54:06,810
He talked to me like I was a fucking
five-year-old, and I am sick of it.
911
00:54:06,890 --> 00:54:08,270
I am sick of it.
912
00:54:08,350 --> 00:54:11,440
I want happiness. I earned happiness.
913
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,570
I'm a human being, Lizzy.
914
00:54:14,690 --> 00:54:15,690
And you know what else?
915
00:54:15,780 --> 00:54:19,240
Don't you dare bitch
at me about my career,
916
00:54:19,740 --> 00:54:22,450
little Miss I'm-So-Progressive.
917
00:54:22,530 --> 00:54:26,870
Yes, I worked my ass off
to get where I am.
918
00:54:27,660 --> 00:54:28,960
And I wanted it.
919
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:34,340
I wanted to be something.
I wanted to mean something in this world.
920
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:36,880
I didn't know that was a fucking crime.
921
00:54:37,510 --> 00:54:39,050
Life isn't perfect, okay, baby?
922
00:54:39,130 --> 00:54:40,640
We don't get everything we want.
923
00:54:40,720 --> 00:54:43,100
You're young, you know?
Go make the life that you want,
924
00:54:43,180 --> 00:54:44,810
and you see how fucking easy it is.
925
00:54:45,270 --> 00:54:49,350
And stop bitching
and complaining and blaming me.
926
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,440
And you get your own fucking pizza.
927
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:56,030
This is my pizza.
I'm taking my pizza. I earned this shit.
928
00:54:56,110 --> 00:54:58,200
- Fuck you, Mom.
- Oh, fuck you, kid.
929
00:56:19,190 --> 00:56:20,280
Hello?
930
00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:23,780
It's Bradley Jackson.
931
00:56:28,660 --> 00:56:31,290
If you can find somebody
to corroborate your story,
932
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,420
I might be interested.
933
00:56:53,100 --> 00:56:54,100
Okay.
934
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:29,970
Hey, kiddo.
935
00:57:30,060 --> 00:57:32,720
Mitch. What are you doing here?
936
00:57:33,730 --> 00:57:37,290
Well, you got something out of me.
937
00:57:37,940 --> 00:57:41,400
And now it's time
for you to repay the favor.
