[male reporter] A state of emergency
has been declared in California.

00:01:57,451 --> 00:02:01,711
Just outside Los Angeles several fires are
wreaking havoc, destroying homes

The biggest blaze is the Huntley Fire

just outside
the wealthy community of Malibu

00:02:08,836 --> 00:02:11,506

likening to a war zone.

Make sure they get all the animals.

Can you get ahold of Bradley?
26
00:03:08,272 --> 00:03:13,112
You know, we're staying in the same hotel,
so let me see if I can connect with her.
27
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:15,173
All right,
I'll call Chip on the way to the airport.

I feel so awful.

I was a little concerned
you might choke on your own vomit.

Thank you, Cory.
51
00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:41,164
Being alone is highly overrated.

You're awfully nice for the head of a...
President of a network.

So I'll go up.

We gotta go to LA to cover these fires.

That sounds a little desperate.
It's not like it's 9/11 or something.

00:06:34,603 --> 00:06:36,983
No, no, no, no. You don't get it.
This is massive, okay?
91
00:06:37,064 --> 00:06:41,534
We got multiple fires raging here.
We've got evacuations, homes lost.

Oh, Jesus.

Besides, the show could use
a little narrative shift.

00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:49,785
Come on. Let's do this.
96
00:06:49,868 --> 00:06:51,718
These orders are coming
straight from the fucking Death Star.

Chip, I'm not...
I'm not covering a fucking fire, okay?
98
00:06:55,165 --> 00:06:58,375
Just send Bradley.
Get her off my ass for a few days.

But, come on, Alex!

here unannounced. Just give me that.

I can't do this anymore, Alex.
107

I was up all night after you abandoned me,
left me to host your fucking fund-raiser.

Okay. Look, I... I was upset...

and I just cannot take it anymore. Okay?

But years of having a relationship
with a charming narcissist

is fucking killing me.

You're not in love with me.
114
00:07:41,170 --> 00:07:43,710
And... And I am not in love
with you anymore.
115
00:07:49,428 --> 00:07:50,428
And?
116

Well, no.

[laughs] It's not entirely up to you,
believe it or not.
119
00:08:08,030 --> 00:08:10,660
Jason, this is why we are separated.
Because...
120
00:08:10,741 --> 00:08:12,301
Listen, we don't have to do
the family calendars.
121
00:08:12,326 --> 00:08:13,546
- No, no, no.
- You don't have to host
122

- my fund-raisers with me anymore.
- No, Alex.
123
00:08:15,204 --> 00:08:19,424
We separated... We separated because
we argue constantly just like this.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yes, we do.
125

And because, deep down, I am furious
with you for never putting me first,
126
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:28,843
and you are furious with me
because I am angry about it,
127
00:08:28,926 --> 00:08:31,676
and because you believe
you have a God-given right
128
00:08:31,762 --> 00:08:34,392
to always have the most important problem.
129

[phone buzzes]
130
00:08:36,140 --> 00:08:39,690
Alex, I swear to God, if you answer that,
I will never speak to you again...
131
00:08:42,105 --> 00:08:43,145

132
00:08:43,732 --> 00:08:45,152
Fine. Fine.
133
00:08:47,861 --> 00:08:50,741
Okay, um, look.
134
00:08:51,490 --> 00:08:53,030
We can't get a divorce.
135
00:08:54,868 --> 00:08:57,408
- I'm already on thin ice with America.
- Oh, God.
136
00:08:57,496 --> 00:09:00,326
A divorce will just...
put me over the edge. And I can...
137
00:09:00,415 --> 00:09:03,415
This is happening, Alex.
138
00:09:04,253 --> 00:09:07,213
We have to tell Lizzy,
you have to tell your PR people.
139
00:09:07,297 --> 00:09:09,797
Because like everything else
in our personal life,
140
00:09:09,883 --> 00:09:12,933
it needs to be fucking handled.
141
00:09:13,011 --> 00:09:16,851
But make no mistake, this is happening.
142
00:09:21,687 --> 00:09:25,267
I've spoken to my lawyer.
I'm gonna drive and tell Lizzy tonight.
143
00:09:25,357 --> 00:09:27,937
If you wanna come, you should.
144

[whimpers]
145
00:09:30,445 --> 00:09:33,655
- No, I... No! No!
- I'll meet you at 5:00. We'll go together.
146
00:09:33,740 --> 00:09:38,450
No, Jason... Jason, I'm sorry I did that.
I'm sorry I left you at the party alo...
147
00:09:38,537 --> 00:09:40,707
- We cannot tell Lizzy.
- Why?
148
00:09:40,789 --> 00:09:42,709
Because. Because...
149
00:09:44,459 --> 00:09:46,129
I have to go to California today.
150
00:09:48,463 --> 00:09:51,473
We're covering the fires.
That's why Chip has been calling me.
151
00:09:51,550 --> 00:09:52,550
Alex.
152
00:09:52,634 --> 00:09:55,764
Please. Jason, peoples' homes
are burning to the ground.
153
00:09:55,846 --> 00:09:58,116
- [elevator bell dings]
- Bodies are being pulled out of cars.
154
00:09:58,140 --> 00:10:00,310
This is important. Jason.
155
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:02,939
We'll tell her when I get back.
156
00:10:03,395 --> 00:10:06,725
Fine. As soon as you are back,
we will tell her.
157
00:10:06,815 --> 00:10:08,815
But I am not fucking around, Alex.
158
00:10:08,901 --> 00:10:11,281
I'm not gonna cool down
and suddenly change my mind.
159
00:10:11,361 --> 00:10:13,571
I'm not... I'm not thinking that.
160
00:10:14,489 --> 00:10:16,489
I just have to cover the fires.
161
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,870
It's not my fault. I didn't light them.
162
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:21,623

[Chip] Yes?
165
00:10:31,757 --> 00:10:36,047
Hey, so sorry.
I was sound, sound asleep.
166
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:38,136
Um... you're right.
167
00:10:38,222 --> 00:10:40,932
It's... It's important.
Of course, I'll be there.
168
00:10:41,016 --> 00:10:43,306
Fantastic. Thank you.
Plane can leave at 11:00.

00:10:43,685 --> 00:10:47,055
Okay, I'll see you then.
Oh, um, don't bring Bradley.
170
00:10:47,898 --> 00:10:51,398
You just fucking told me to bring...
You know what? It doesn't matter.
171
00:10:51,944 --> 00:10:54,264
She's already going.
Fred wants her there. You're both going.
172
00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:57,319
It's gonna be a ratings bonanza.
Pack your stuff. Car's coming in an hour.
173
00:10:57,407 --> 00:10:58,697
Oh, fuck, fine!
174
00:11:07,334 --> 00:11:09,214
[bass rhythm starts]
175
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:16,500
["Jump into the Fire" playing]
176
00:11:35,612 --> 00:11:37,412
[chattering]
177
00:11:37,489 --> 00:11:38,659
[music continues]
178
00:11:42,744 --> 00:11:44,584
All right, I'm here. Let's go.
179
00:11:53,213 --> 00:11:56,263
[engine whirs]
180
00:11:56,341 --> 00:11:57,681
[seat belt clicks]
181
00:12:13,734 --> 00:12:16,614
[music fades]
182
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:18,704
[Mia]
Copy just came in.
183
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:20,280
[Bradley]
Oh, thank you.
184
00:12:22,201 --> 00:12:24,161
I'm glad we're getting out of town
for a few days.
185
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:28,334
Yeah, we could definitely all use a change
of scenery, even if it's a deadly fire.
186
00:12:28,415 --> 00:12:30,035
Which is saying something.
187
00:12:31,793 --> 00:12:33,593
I'm glad you were there last night.
188
00:12:34,129 --> 00:12:35,459
- You were?
- Yeah.
189
00:12:35,547 --> 00:12:38,507
I also didn't know
half the staff doesn't trust me.
190
00:12:38,592 --> 00:12:39,642
Oh.
191
00:12:41,428 --> 00:12:42,678
Do I smell like tequila?
192
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:44,216
Let me smell.
193
00:12:45,766 --> 00:12:47,486
Oh, wow. Nah, I'm just playing.
You're fine.
194
00:12:47,684 --> 00:12:50,274
Look, the staff, they barely know you.
It's only been a week.
195
00:12:50,354 --> 00:12:53,114
Give them some time. Okay?
You're pretty likable.
196
00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:55,781
Thanks.
197
00:12:55,859 --> 00:12:57,569
I need some coffee. You want some?
198
00:12:57,653 --> 00:12:59,153
Nah, I'm all good.
199
00:13:10,082 --> 00:13:11,502
It's the travel booker.
200
00:13:11,583 --> 00:13:12,583
What?
201
00:13:12,668 --> 00:13:14,708
Apparently
most of the hotels near the fire are full
202
00:13:14,753 --> 00:13:16,513
because of the mandatory evacuations.
203
00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:19,548
And the only one that's available
doesn't have any suites.
204
00:13:20,342 --> 00:13:23,642
Well, can't they kick out
some of the displaced families?
205
00:13:24,847 --> 00:13:26,307
I do need room for my diamonds.
206
00:13:26,390 --> 00:13:28,270
- So that's a "yes." Got it.
- Jesus.
207
00:13:29,268 --> 00:13:32,268
Who's telling people
that I need all these things? Hmm?
208
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,190
This is why celebrities
get really crappy reputations.
209
00:13:37,359 --> 00:13:39,439
And by being difficult to work with.
210
00:13:41,363 --> 00:13:43,663
It's been two days
since the Ashley Brown interview.
211
00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:44,950
What's your point?
212
00:13:45,450 --> 00:13:48,040
What are we doing?
You have to talk to Bradley at some point.
213
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,080
Or... Or make some eye contact.
214
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:54,133
Chip, I don't give a fuck.
Just leave me alone on it, all right?
215
00:13:54,668 --> 00:13:57,128
I have this other natural disaster
I have to deal with.
216
00:13:57,212 --> 00:13:59,722
Okay. I'm sorry. I'm just...
217
00:14:03,552 --> 00:14:05,862
[male pilot] All right, folks,
we have just about another hour to go
218
00:14:05,888 --> 00:14:07,558
before we touch down in Burbank.
219
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:10,559
I hope you guys
are having a good time back there.
220
00:14:10,642 --> 00:14:12,312
It's been a pleasure serving you.
221
00:14:12,394 --> 00:14:13,404
[sighs]
222
00:14:21,361 --> 00:14:23,201
[sirens wailing]
223
00:14:28,827 --> 00:14:30,197
[child] Mommy!
224
00:14:44,426 --> 00:14:47,596
[sirens continue in distance]
225
00:14:53,018 --> 00:14:55,398
[woman] Let's go, come on. Hold my hand.
Don't let go.
226
00:14:58,565 --> 00:15:00,475
[sirens continue]
227
00:15:03,070 --> 00:15:05,070
[man] Water... Here if you need 'em.
228
00:15:07,741 --> 00:15:08,781
Sorry this took so long.
229
00:15:08,867 --> 00:15:09,867
Jesus.
230
00:15:09,952 --> 00:15:11,952
[Chip]
Any port in a storm, huh?
231
00:15:12,037 --> 00:15:13,407
You sure about that?
232
00:15:14,164 --> 00:15:15,964
Okay, guys, clock's ticking.
Let's get set up.
233
00:15:16,041 --> 00:15:17,721
Yanko, can you
meet the helicopter, please?
234
00:15:17,793 --> 00:15:18,793
Yeah.
235
00:15:23,423 --> 00:15:25,263
- Alex Levy?
- Hi there.
236
00:15:25,342 --> 00:15:26,972
Hi. [chuckles]
237
00:15:27,553 --> 00:15:28,933
Oh. Thank you.
238
00:15:29,012 --> 00:15:31,572
We're working on the press conference
with the Malibu fire chief.
239
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,060
Then we have the children
who survived in the swimming pool.
240
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:36,622
The climate change expert.
Do we have anyone from the hospital yet?
241
00:15:36,645 --> 00:15:39,225
The nurse is a little skittish.
I'm working on her.
242
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:40,404
I'll have a backup too.
243
00:15:40,482 --> 00:15:43,282
Okay. We still need an upbeat story
to wrap up with.
244
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,990
I'm leaning towards the Good Samaritan
who rescued all the dogs.
245
00:15:47,072 --> 00:15:49,912
Oh, uh...
don't you think that's a little bit soft?
246
00:15:50,325 --> 00:15:52,905
I mean, I like dogs.
But just to end the show?
247
00:15:52,995 --> 00:15:55,365
Well, maybe
one of the dogs had an abortion.
248
00:16:00,335 --> 00:16:01,915
Um, what'd you have in mind, Bradley?
249
00:16:02,504 --> 00:16:05,884
I don't know, maybe something about
the allocation of firefighting resources,
250
00:16:05,966 --> 00:16:08,256
how they prioritize
which homes they wanna save.
251
00:16:08,343 --> 00:16:11,513
- Hmm.
- The numbers seem to show an imbalance
252
00:16:11,597 --> 00:16:13,717
towards richer neighborhoods
over poor neighborhoods.
253
00:16:13,807 --> 00:16:17,137
And maybe that's an unconscious bias,
and maybe it's outright corruption,
254
00:16:17,227 --> 00:16:19,187
but either way, it's wrong.
255
00:16:19,271 --> 00:16:21,821
Claire actually found a video on Twitter.
256
00:16:21,899 --> 00:16:26,199
Some celebrities hire private firefighters
to protect their mansions.
257
00:16:26,278 --> 00:16:29,278
Oh, that's kind of an interesting take.
All right, can you send me the link?
258
00:16:29,323 --> 00:16:30,323
[Hannah]
Yeah.
259
00:16:30,407 --> 00:16:32,577
All right, it is interesting. Um...
260
00:16:32,993 --> 00:16:35,953
it might look like
we are denigrating first responders.
261
00:16:36,038 --> 00:16:38,748
Uh, so I'm not sure
it's the right tone for us.
262
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:40,752
I mean, we're a news program.
263
00:16:41,293 --> 00:16:44,423
I think our tone is the truth,
even when it's ugly.
264
00:16:44,505 --> 00:16:48,585
Oh, my God!
Are you going to do this every day?
265
00:16:49,968 --> 00:16:50,968
Do what?
266
00:16:51,053 --> 00:16:56,483
This I'm-so-down-with-the-people,
superior journalist bullshit.
267
00:16:57,226 --> 00:16:59,686
- It's really obnoxious.
- Wow.
268
00:16:59,770 --> 00:17:02,690
You have no respect for our show
or the work that we do here.
269
00:17:07,653 --> 00:17:10,663
[scoffs] Well, I don't need to lie
to myself about the quality of the show
270
00:17:10,739 --> 00:17:12,949
that you've been producing for 15 years.
271
00:17:13,032 --> 00:17:16,292
Okay, respectfully, we are the number-one
morning news program in the country.
272
00:17:16,369 --> 00:17:19,079
Which is why you're an incredible platform
to open people's eyes
273
00:17:19,164 --> 00:17:20,794
to what's really happening in the world
274
00:17:20,874 --> 00:17:23,754
instead of force-feeding them
a bunch of glossy garbage
275
00:17:23,836 --> 00:17:25,916
that sedates them
into thinking their lives are great
276
00:17:26,003 --> 00:17:27,383
'cause they saved some dogs.
277
00:17:27,464 --> 00:17:29,634
Why?
So we can all just fucking kill ourselves?
278
00:17:31,343 --> 00:17:33,113
- [Chip] Okay, all right.
- Let's give that to the people!
279
00:17:33,136 --> 00:17:34,346
- [Chip] Okay, look.
- Jesus.
280
00:17:34,429 --> 00:17:36,149
We're all a little tired,
a little hungover.
281
00:17:36,223 --> 00:17:38,853
You cannot begrudge people
for wanting to feel better.
282
00:17:39,268 --> 00:17:42,438
It's part of the job, truth teller.
Like it or not.
283
00:17:42,521 --> 00:17:44,191
[drops phone, sighs]
284
00:17:48,861 --> 00:17:51,411
- Well, with all due respect, Alex...
- Mm-hmm.
285
00:17:52,030 --> 00:17:55,080
I think you and I have different ideas
about what this show means.
286
00:17:59,329 --> 00:18:02,249
Okay, I think that we're gonna run
with the dog story for today.
287
00:18:02,332 --> 00:18:05,502
We will dig in deeper on the private
firefighters for tomorrow's show.
288
00:18:06,170 --> 00:18:07,170
Great, thank you.
289
00:18:07,254 --> 00:18:09,384
Okay, great.
We gotta get home base locked up.
290
00:18:09,464 --> 00:18:11,184
Let's get moving, everybody. Thank you.
291
00:18:11,675 --> 00:18:13,135
Just try to get some rest.
292
00:18:26,398 --> 00:18:27,498
[Mia] We're gonna need a bigger trailer.
293
00:18:27,524 --> 00:18:29,654
We're gonna shoot the whole show out here,
whole show.
294
00:18:30,485 --> 00:18:32,275
[Yanko]
Well, you can see the devastation.
295
00:18:32,362 --> 00:18:37,082
Just miles and miles of scorched earth
and remnants of homes.
296
00:18:37,159 --> 00:18:40,409
And this, by the way, is only miles away
from the terrible Woolsey Fire
297
00:18:40,495 --> 00:18:42,325
from the fall of 2018.
298
00:18:42,831 --> 00:18:44,501
And meanwhile, the Santa Anas are...
299
00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:48,003
They're relentless,
and the blaze is only 10% contained.
300
00:18:48,795 --> 00:18:52,085
Hello, Mrs. Rosen? Wait, I lost you.
301
00:18:52,174 --> 00:18:55,474
Hello? Hello? Mrs. Rosen?
302
00:18:56,845 --> 00:18:58,095
Oh, fuck.
303
00:18:59,139 --> 00:19:03,059
Oh, there you are. Yes, yes.
We were so deeply moved by your story.
304
00:19:03,143 --> 00:19:04,943
We would love to...
305
00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:08,520
Mrs. Rosen? Are you still there?
306
00:19:08,941 --> 00:19:12,001
If winds pick up, there's a chance we'd
have to drop signal and go to New York.
307
00:19:12,027 --> 00:19:14,197
Uh, how big of a chance?
308
00:19:14,279 --> 00:19:20,369
In the mythology of most ancient cultures,
fire was imbued with magical properties.
309
00:19:20,452 --> 00:19:23,332
It's referred to as a creature
to be tamed.
310
00:19:24,164 --> 00:19:26,174
You understand that
when you see a fire like this,
311
00:19:26,250 --> 00:19:27,460
I mean, the way it moves,
312
00:19:27,543 --> 00:19:32,553
it seems deliberate, like it's something
with a mind that can think and plan.
313
00:19:33,048 --> 00:19:36,838
Are you just telling me about the
mythology, or you want that in the copy?
314
00:19:37,386 --> 00:19:40,216
No, I'm not just telling you, Joel.
I want that in the copy.
315
00:19:40,806 --> 00:19:43,266
[scoffs] Claire,
give me the keys to this thing.
316
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:45,140
- Yeah. Will do.
- Mrs. Rosen!
317
00:19:45,227 --> 00:19:47,367
I won't pretend to know the pain
you're feeling right now.
318
00:19:47,396 --> 00:19:51,816
All I wanna say is,
I think your story could bring awareness,
319
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:55,820
so that no other family ever has to suffer
the way that yours has.
320
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:59,028
Yes, please take your time
to think about it.
321
00:19:59,116 --> 00:20:02,536
I'll check in with you soon. Okay. Bye.
322
00:20:02,619 --> 00:20:03,999
[chatter]
323
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,330
[firefighter]
Keep that area clear.
324
00:20:12,546 --> 00:20:13,916
[firefighters shouting]
325
00:20:15,382 --> 00:20:17,222
God, how are you so good at that?
326
00:20:17,301 --> 00:20:20,301
Speaking to people
that have had these terrible traumas.
327
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,810
You basically just don't avoid the pain.
328
00:20:24,892 --> 00:20:27,732
My mom died when I was ten.
It was pretty sudden.
329
00:20:27,811 --> 00:20:30,651
I guess you could say
I'm smart at tragedy,
330
00:20:30,731 --> 00:20:32,651
which helps booking a morning news show.
331
00:20:33,233 --> 00:20:35,833
But there's basically nothing
anyone can say that makes it better.
332
00:20:35,861 --> 00:20:39,111
Just a lot of things you can say
that make it worse.
333
00:20:40,199 --> 00:20:41,909
I just try not to make it worse.
334
00:20:44,077 --> 00:20:46,657
By the way, we're about to be up
for the next 30 hours.
335
00:20:46,747 --> 00:20:48,207
I have Adderall if you want some.
336
00:20:51,627 --> 00:20:53,337
Yeah. Okay.
337
00:20:54,296 --> 00:20:58,256
Also, remotes are a good opportunity
to make an impression on higher-ups.
338
00:20:58,342 --> 00:21:01,432
Smaller crew, more face time.
People are jacked up.
339
00:21:03,222 --> 00:21:07,022
There's an excitement in the air.
Stuff happens on remotes.
340
00:21:08,018 --> 00:21:10,558
Man, I wish this wind would die down.
341
00:21:10,646 --> 00:21:12,306
- [phone buzzes]
- [sighs]
342
00:21:13,398 --> 00:21:15,858
Mrs. Rosen. Yes.
343
00:21:16,568 --> 00:21:19,358
Yes, we're on our way.
We'll be there soon.
344
00:21:26,662 --> 00:21:28,662
[music plays in theater]
345
00:22:03,657 --> 00:22:04,777
It doesn't work.
346
00:22:05,826 --> 00:22:07,906
I think they did a great job of...
347
00:22:07,995 --> 00:22:10,075
Putting what was on the page
up on the screen.
348
00:22:10,163 --> 00:22:14,083
That is an accurate representation of
what was on the page. And it doesn't work.
349
00:22:14,168 --> 00:22:15,878
But you greenlit the pilot.
350
00:22:16,211 --> 00:22:17,501
That's true. I did.
351
00:22:18,005 --> 00:22:20,755
So why would you do it
if you hated it so much?
352
00:22:24,887 --> 00:22:26,347
You follow baseball, Kate?
353
00:22:26,430 --> 00:22:27,890
Do I look like I follow baseball?
354
00:22:28,849 --> 00:22:29,849
Yes.
355
00:22:32,769 --> 00:22:33,809
We're talking baseball.
356
00:22:33,896 --> 00:22:36,016
Sometimes a guy,
he bounces around the minors,
357
00:22:36,106 --> 00:22:39,106
he's barely hitting his own weight,
and everybody has called him a washout.
358
00:22:39,193 --> 00:22:44,493
But you, you see something in him,
so you empower him.
359
00:22:44,573 --> 00:22:47,663
You call him up to the majors,
and the first fucking pitch he sees,
360
00:22:47,743 --> 00:22:53,293
he crushes a 500-foot towering home run
over the center-field wall.
361
00:22:53,373 --> 00:22:54,923
It's beautiful. He's a gamer.
362
00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:00,210
So when this guy or gal makes good,
363
00:23:00,297 --> 00:23:03,677
it renews your faith in the game.
364
00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:07,969
And in news. And in life.
It puts a spring in your step.
365
00:23:08,055 --> 00:23:10,775
It makes you wanna come back to the park
again 'cause it may happen again.
366
00:23:10,807 --> 00:23:14,137
And guess what? It does happen again,
and everything is right in the world.
367
00:23:14,895 --> 00:23:17,645
Famine, poverty and pestilence
are a thing of the past.
368
00:23:17,731 --> 00:23:19,401
A tree grows in Brooklyn. Rainbows...
369
00:23:19,483 --> 00:23:21,033
Are we still talking about the pilot?
370
00:23:21,109 --> 00:23:23,649
What else would we be talking about, Kate?
371
00:23:25,072 --> 00:23:27,742
Sometimes, you give a guy an at bat
372
00:23:27,824 --> 00:23:31,454
to show him that baseball
is just not his sport.
373
00:23:31,954 --> 00:23:34,374
You knew it already.
But he didn't know it.
374
00:23:34,456 --> 00:23:37,916
He got a big head when he was putting up
decent numbers in Triple-A.
375
00:23:38,001 --> 00:23:41,921
And what do you know?
He strikes out on three straight pitches.
376
00:23:42,005 --> 00:23:44,085
And then it happens again.
And then it happens again.
377
00:23:44,174 --> 00:23:48,934
So now he knows.
He's just not a big-league hitter.
378
00:23:50,472 --> 00:23:53,892
But more importantly, the scout,
379
00:23:54,434 --> 00:23:57,904
who had been championing this guy
from here to kingdom come...
380
00:23:59,857 --> 00:24:00,977
knows it too.
381
00:24:01,859 --> 00:24:03,439
And that's money well spent.
382
00:24:03,527 --> 00:24:06,817
So, no, I'm not picking it up.
And I'm okay with it.
383
00:24:06,905 --> 00:24:09,525
Charlie Black just showed up.
He wants to talk to you.
384
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,369
Okay. Class dismissed.
[laughs]
385
00:24:17,082 --> 00:24:19,922
Chipper. What's up?
What can I help you with?
386
00:24:20,919 --> 00:24:23,589
It's a little weird seeing you here
with your other hat on.
387
00:24:23,672 --> 00:24:27,132
[chuckles] Well, hats look weird on me
in general. I get it.
388
00:24:27,217 --> 00:24:30,177
In addition to which, my heart is fully
in the news division right now,
389
00:24:30,262 --> 00:24:31,642
for better or worse.
390
00:24:31,722 --> 00:24:36,272
Well, good luck with that.
She can be a cruel mistress, as they say.
391
00:24:36,351 --> 00:24:37,521
Um...
392
00:24:37,603 --> 00:24:42,733
speaking of which, um... look, you know,
I do understand what's happening here.
393
00:24:42,816 --> 00:24:45,686
You know, if push comes to shove,
I'm gonna be the first one to die.
394
00:24:45,777 --> 00:24:47,067
You're not wrong. Sorry.
395
00:24:47,154 --> 00:24:49,664
And maybe I shouldn't be
bringing this to you,
396
00:24:49,740 --> 00:24:54,240
but I have very few options
and increasingly less to lose.
397
00:24:54,328 --> 00:24:56,708
So, fuck it, here goes.
398
00:24:56,788 --> 00:25:00,208
Look, TV, at this level, is...
399
00:25:00,876 --> 00:25:03,916
It's like the Mafia, you know. Um...
400
00:25:04,004 --> 00:25:06,844
We got a don in a precarious position,
401
00:25:06,924 --> 00:25:10,304
and, as a result,
he's gonna have me whacked.
402
00:25:10,385 --> 00:25:15,425
And, you know, I need protection.
403
00:25:16,266 --> 00:25:20,016
So you're coming to the underboss
to propose a coup?
404
00:25:20,103 --> 00:25:24,733
[chuckles] Somehow,
you have come out of this pretty golden.
405
00:25:24,816 --> 00:25:30,736
And I am sure it has crossed your mind
that, uh, Fred's left holding the bag,
406
00:25:30,822 --> 00:25:32,122
and you're kicking ass,
407
00:25:32,199 --> 00:25:36,159
then you could quickly
find yourself in Fred's seat.
408
00:25:38,038 --> 00:25:39,538
Crossed my mind.
409
00:25:42,376 --> 00:25:44,706
So here's the thing.
I wanna help put you there.
410
00:25:48,006 --> 00:25:49,466
How would that happen?
411
00:25:49,550 --> 00:25:52,430
To be honest, I've never done anything
like this before, okay?
412
00:25:52,511 --> 00:25:55,431
But these things have a way
of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.
413
00:25:55,514 --> 00:25:57,434
You know, they...
People hint at a shake-up.
414
00:25:57,516 --> 00:26:02,976
They hint that young hotshot Cory Ellison
is going to succeed Fred Micklen.
415
00:26:03,063 --> 00:26:07,533
And before you know it, you know...
I like your chances.
416
00:26:08,527 --> 00:26:11,067
We are the press. You know?
417
00:26:11,154 --> 00:26:14,954
And while I can't have the story placed
at our show, obviously,
418
00:26:15,576 --> 00:26:18,246
I've been around a while,
I do have clout, I do have credibility.
419
00:26:18,328 --> 00:26:20,368
And I got a lot of political capital
saved up,
420
00:26:20,455 --> 00:26:23,285
and I can spend that shit
getting the story placed...
421
00:26:24,334 --> 00:26:26,964
at any number of outlets.
422
00:26:28,297 --> 00:26:29,717
It's intriguing.
423
00:26:30,424 --> 00:26:33,184
But I don't see Fred getting taken out
424
00:26:33,260 --> 00:26:35,640
unless something specific
comes out on him.
425
00:26:36,722 --> 00:26:39,732
- Like what?
- I don't know, Chip, like what?
426
00:26:42,269 --> 00:26:43,269
[chuckles]
427
00:26:47,900 --> 00:26:50,030
I gotta be honest with you, man,
I don't know.
428
00:26:51,069 --> 00:26:52,779
I'd have to think about that.
429
00:26:54,156 --> 00:26:56,946
Organized crime is harder than it looks,
isn't it?
430
00:26:57,868 --> 00:26:58,868
Yeah, it is.
431
00:26:59,328 --> 00:27:00,498
Think about it.
432
00:27:00,829 --> 00:27:02,959
All right. Um...
433
00:27:05,417 --> 00:27:06,787
Thank you for talking to me.
434
00:27:07,336 --> 00:27:12,336
Yeah. Good luck
with that moral compass of yours.
435
00:27:17,346 --> 00:27:18,716
[helicopter whirring]
436
00:27:19,515 --> 00:27:22,805
- [Mia] Copy that.
- [Yanko] Yeah.
437
00:27:24,603 --> 00:27:26,523
[Mia]
That's on the C block. That's C block.
438
00:27:30,901 --> 00:27:33,651
You don't have to wear the mask,
but you have to take it.
439
00:27:33,737 --> 00:27:35,407
- Just take it.
- Yeah.
440
00:27:35,489 --> 00:27:37,449
Oh, I'll help.
441
00:27:37,533 --> 00:27:39,373
Take these and pass them out.
442
00:27:39,451 --> 00:27:41,891
Hey, can you give one of these to Bradley?
She's in her trailer.
443
00:27:41,912 --> 00:27:44,922
Then we can put that in. That'll fit.
Does that work for you, Yanko?
444
00:27:44,998 --> 00:27:47,558
- It's not about me. It's about the fires.
- Apparently you minded about... What?
445
00:27:47,584 --> 00:27:49,314
- [Mia] That looks good. I like that.
- [Yanko] Okay. All right.
446
00:27:49,336 --> 00:27:50,586
That's all I can do.
447
00:27:51,380 --> 00:27:52,800
[Claire sighs]
448
00:27:57,678 --> 00:27:58,718
Mask.
449
00:27:59,513 --> 00:28:02,563
Um, Bradley, I'm supposed to give you
a mask. It's network policy.
450
00:28:02,641 --> 00:28:03,851
Oh, hey, thanks.
451
00:28:03,934 --> 00:28:07,234
Did you find this article about the actor
that hired the private firefighters?
452
00:28:07,312 --> 00:28:08,942
Yeah, that was me.
453
00:28:09,022 --> 00:28:13,782
This is great stuff. This is fascinating.
Really fucked-up, but fascinating.
454
00:28:13,861 --> 00:28:14,861
Thanks.
455
00:28:14,945 --> 00:28:17,235
Yeah, if you find
another fucked-up story like this,
456
00:28:17,322 --> 00:28:18,642
don't hesitate to bring it to me.
457
00:28:19,199 --> 00:28:20,909
- Oh. Okay. Yeah.
- Okay.
458
00:28:20,993 --> 00:28:22,373
- I will.
- Thanks.
459
00:28:23,203 --> 00:28:25,583
- Claire?
- Yes.
460
00:28:26,164 --> 00:28:28,044
What are your goals around here?
461
00:28:28,125 --> 00:28:31,625
Oh, uh, well, to be completely honest,
I'm still feeling it out.
462
00:28:31,712 --> 00:28:35,722
I mean, I'm fascinated by so much of it.
Like, maybe on-air, maybe an EP.
463
00:28:35,799 --> 00:28:38,199
I mean, also I can just see myself
running an entire network.
464
00:28:40,554 --> 00:28:43,274
Okay, well, um,
I've been interviewing assistants.
465
00:28:44,349 --> 00:28:45,679
How's that going?
466
00:28:45,767 --> 00:28:47,347
You know, to be honest, not great.
467
00:28:47,436 --> 00:28:49,706
They just keep sending me
the same cookie-cutter, Ivy League...
468
00:28:49,730 --> 00:28:54,400
Hire me! I'm extremely smart.
I'm incredibly hardworking.
469
00:28:54,484 --> 00:28:57,154
I already know everything about the show
and how to get shit done.
470
00:28:57,237 --> 00:28:59,527
But mainly,
I really want to learn from you.
471
00:29:00,115 --> 00:29:02,945
I realize you maybe weren't remotely
going to offer me the job,
472
00:29:03,035 --> 00:29:04,715
and I apologize
if I just mortified myself.
473
00:29:04,786 --> 00:29:06,366
But I really do mean all of that.
474
00:29:07,539 --> 00:29:09,629
Did you see how many bridges
I burned last week?
475
00:29:09,708 --> 00:29:11,418
Yeah, and I really admire it.
476
00:29:12,085 --> 00:29:15,665
Okay. You're funny,
and you have questionable taste,
477
00:29:15,756 --> 00:29:18,506
but I like that you just come out
and say what you want.
478
00:29:18,592 --> 00:29:21,552
So I think I wanna offer you the job.
479
00:29:22,054 --> 00:29:23,564
- Really?
- Yeah, if you want it.
480
00:29:23,639 --> 00:29:25,469
Yes! Should I just start now?
481
00:29:26,517 --> 00:29:30,267
I would pass out the face masks, then come
back and we can start talking about work.
482
00:29:30,354 --> 00:29:32,814
Amazing. Thank you.
I will not let you down.
483
00:29:32,898 --> 00:29:34,068
I know you won't.
484
00:29:40,531 --> 00:29:41,991
- Guess what?
- Hey.
485
00:29:42,533 --> 00:29:44,243
I just got promoted.
486
00:29:44,326 --> 00:29:45,366
What? You did?
487
00:29:45,452 --> 00:29:49,752
You are now having an affair with
Bradley Jackson's executive assistant.
488
00:29:49,831 --> 00:29:51,791
Come on, Claire. Come on. Please.
489
00:29:52,209 --> 00:29:55,129
Look, it's great news,
no, but use your head.
490
00:29:55,212 --> 00:29:59,552
Okay. I understand. I do.
[chuckles]
491
00:30:04,263 --> 00:30:05,813
I'm proud of you.
492
00:30:05,889 --> 00:30:07,219
Me too.
493
00:30:08,267 --> 00:30:09,267
Oh.
494
00:30:09,893 --> 00:30:11,143
Yes. Yeah.
495
00:30:12,271 --> 00:30:17,361
You look very sexy out here in the wild,
you know. It's unbearable.
496
00:30:17,442 --> 00:30:20,492
- Go away. Now.
- [giggles]
497
00:30:21,613 --> 00:30:24,243
Look up. Close your eyes.
498
00:30:24,324 --> 00:30:28,004
Look, Alex, I get that you're upset at me
ever since that Ashley interview.
499
00:30:28,078 --> 00:30:32,288
Oh, God, Bradley.
My life is not all about you.
500
00:30:32,374 --> 00:30:35,064
- I'm sorry if what I asked you was rude.
- [man] Guys, I got Mike from an old...
501
00:30:35,085 --> 00:30:37,795
Rude? Rude?
502
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,460
[Greg]
Clear the set, please!
503
00:30:40,966 --> 00:30:44,966
Implying that I'm part
of a conspiracy of silence?
504
00:30:47,222 --> 00:30:48,522
How could that be rude?
505
00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:52,059
Fine. I got all heated up.
It was a question.
506
00:30:52,144 --> 00:30:54,234
My journalistic instinct
told me to ask you.
507
00:30:54,313 --> 00:30:57,823
Oh, that's so grand.
Your curiosity just thrills me.
508
00:30:57,900 --> 00:31:01,360
And I'm in awe of your instincts.
Can we just be honest?
509
00:31:01,445 --> 00:31:02,355
Please.
510
00:31:02,446 --> 00:31:04,816
- I don't like you, and you don't like me.
- I like you.
511
00:31:04,907 --> 00:31:07,487
Oh, come on. Why?
Why are we p... Stop pretending.
512
00:31:07,576 --> 00:31:09,236
Because we have to work together.
513
00:31:09,328 --> 00:31:11,458
Yes, I know we are in this mess now.
514
00:31:11,914 --> 00:31:15,464
But doing this job well requires us
to act like best friends
515
00:31:15,542 --> 00:31:17,462
for exactly two hours a day.
516
00:31:17,544 --> 00:31:20,804
The rest of the time,
we just have to be professional adults
517
00:31:20,881 --> 00:31:23,091
who can tolerate being in the same room.
518
00:31:23,175 --> 00:31:25,055
And I think we can both handle
those boundaries.
519
00:31:25,093 --> 00:31:27,393
I know I can. See if you can.
520
00:31:27,888 --> 00:31:29,518
Come on, Greg! What's happening?
521
00:31:29,598 --> 00:31:32,558
Yeah, we're live in 30 seconds, everyone.
Quiet on the set.
522
00:31:32,643 --> 00:31:33,733
[Alex] Shit.
523
00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:36,150
[Alex]
Okay, come on, sound, mikes, let's go.
524
00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:38,110
Here. Who's taking my coat?
525
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:41,649
We're live in ten.
526
00:31:43,153 --> 00:31:46,533
Jesus, you can't buy this kind
of production value. Holy shit.
527
00:31:46,615 --> 00:31:48,255
- [Bradley] Which camera do we start with?
- Standby, two.
528
00:31:48,283 --> 00:31:50,083
- [Alex] Oh, my God.
- Take it, two. Cue her.
529
00:31:50,786 --> 00:31:52,656
In three, two...
530
00:31:55,165 --> 00:31:57,455
{\an8}Good morning,
and thank you for joining us.
531
00:31:57,543 --> 00:31:59,653
{\an8}We're coming to you live
from both coasts this morning
532
00:31:59,670 --> 00:32:03,300
{\an8}with special coverage of the Huntley Fire
that has devastated California this week.
533
00:32:03,382 --> 00:32:04,632
{\an8}Alex, Bradley.
534
00:32:05,050 --> 00:32:07,800
Good morning, guys.
Bradley and I are currently standing
535
00:32:07,886 --> 00:32:10,346
in the Santa Monica Mountains
near Huntley Canyon,
536
00:32:10,430 --> 00:32:13,600
where the blaze began,
and the destruction is devastating.
537
00:32:14,601 --> 00:32:16,141
{\an8}Here's what we know right now.
538
00:32:16,228 --> 00:32:19,268
{\an8}Seven people are confirmed dead
and dozens are injured,
539
00:32:19,356 --> 00:32:23,026
{\an8}including four firefighters
who are being treated in area hospitals.
540
00:32:23,527 --> 00:32:25,527
{\an8}At least 40,000 acres have burned,
541
00:32:25,612 --> 00:32:30,242
{\an8}and local officials estimate
that close to 1,500 homes have been lost.
542
00:32:30,325 --> 00:32:32,325
[Alex] And those numbers
are still going up
543
00:32:32,411 --> 00:32:34,041
as the fire continues to rage,
544
00:32:34,121 --> 00:32:37,421
{\an8}only 10% contained at this hour.
545
00:32:37,499 --> 00:32:41,749
{\an8}100,000 residents have been forced
into mandatory evacuations.
546
00:32:41,837 --> 00:32:45,167
{\an8}It's difficult to wrap your mind
around the human toll.
547
00:32:45,674 --> 00:32:48,264
{\an8}It really is, Alex.
It's... It's harrowing.
548
00:32:48,927 --> 00:32:50,297
{\an8}Wow. So awful.
549
00:32:50,387 --> 00:32:53,347
{\an8}Well, we hope that both of you
are staying safe out there.
550
00:32:53,682 --> 00:32:54,732
{\an8}Thank you, guys.
551
00:32:55,225 --> 00:32:57,475
{\an8}It's intense being here
in the middle of all this,
552
00:32:57,561 --> 00:32:59,981
{\an8}but we're watching out for each other.
553
00:33:00,063 --> 00:33:03,693
{\an8}Yes, we are.
Now let's go to a live news conference
554
00:33:03,775 --> 00:33:07,105
{\an8}with Los Angeles County Fire Chief,
Captain Graham Sealy,
555
00:33:07,196 --> 00:33:09,526
for an update on the rescue effort.
556
00:33:09,615 --> 00:33:11,695
- And we're out.
- All right. It's good.
557
00:33:32,054 --> 00:33:33,144
Mm.
558
00:33:36,558 --> 00:33:37,558
Here.
559
00:33:38,101 --> 00:33:39,601
- Oh, thanks.
- You okay?
560
00:33:39,686 --> 00:33:42,436
Yeah. I'm fine.
It's just the smoke. It's...
561
00:33:45,025 --> 00:33:46,435
It's the smoke. I'm fine.
562
00:33:46,527 --> 00:33:47,527
Okay. All right.
563
00:33:47,611 --> 00:33:49,661
Uh, dog guy's on next, all right?
Five minutes.
564
00:33:49,738 --> 00:33:50,738
Okay.
565
00:33:51,823 --> 00:33:55,793
Oh, come on. Okay.
You gotta really get there, okay?
566
00:33:57,079 --> 00:34:00,579
[Greg] All right, everyone,
we're live in five, four...
567
00:34:03,669 --> 00:34:06,209
We are here live with Tim Eavers.
568
00:34:06,296 --> 00:34:08,126
Welcome to The Morning Show, Tim.
569
00:34:08,215 --> 00:34:10,295
Thanks so much
for being here with us today.
570
00:34:10,384 --> 00:34:11,444
Oh, it's my great pleasure.
571
00:34:11,467 --> 00:34:15,757
I've been watching you for the past
15 years through every major emergency,
572
00:34:15,848 --> 00:34:17,808
and, uh, I'm a huge fan.
573
00:34:17,891 --> 00:34:19,811
{\an8}I watched your daughter grow up
on the show.
574
00:34:19,893 --> 00:34:22,403
{\an8}-Oh, that's great. Thank you.
- Yeah.
575
00:34:22,478 --> 00:34:25,148
{\an8}She's quite the grown woman these days.
576
00:34:25,232 --> 00:34:27,532
{\an8}-Color me an empty nester, you know?
- [Tim chuckles]
577
00:34:28,694 --> 00:34:31,494
{\an8}[Bradley] So, Tim,
this is an incredible act of heroism.
578
00:34:31,572 --> 00:34:34,282
{\an8}How many dogs
have you rescued altogether now?
579
00:34:34,366 --> 00:34:36,906
{\an8}-Uh, eighteen. And two cats.
- Wow. That's incredible.
580
00:34:36,994 --> 00:34:40,414
{\an8}Wow. So, Tim, take us back to that moment.
581
00:34:40,914 --> 00:34:45,344
So once I realized that my wife
had picked up my daughter from school,
582
00:34:45,418 --> 00:34:47,588
and they were safely situated in a motel,
583
00:34:47,670 --> 00:34:51,050
- I went home to get treasured items...
- This guy Tim is great.
584
00:34:51,132 --> 00:34:54,142
And to pick up our, um...
our two family dogs,
585
00:34:54,219 --> 00:34:59,269
Marge, who's an old Lab,
and Tilly, who is her own puppy.
586
00:34:59,975 --> 00:35:03,395
Oh, that's so sweet. So you kept
the mother-daughter relationship intact.
587
00:35:03,478 --> 00:35:05,768
Oh, yeah, you don't wanna be
busting up a family.
588
00:35:06,356 --> 00:35:09,776
[whimpers, coughs]
589
00:35:09,860 --> 00:35:13,240
The smoke is really... Excuse me.
590
00:35:13,322 --> 00:35:14,822
What... What was that?
591
00:35:14,907 --> 00:35:17,157
Yes, there is a lot of smoke out here.
592
00:35:17,242 --> 00:35:20,832
So, Tim, once you got the dogs in the car,
then what happened?
593
00:35:20,913 --> 00:35:23,793
Uh, well, so at that point, you know,
the fires were pretty close,
594
00:35:23,874 --> 00:35:24,894
so there was a lot of sirens.
595
00:35:24,917 --> 00:35:26,747
And dogs were just barking everywhere.
596
00:35:26,835 --> 00:35:28,745
{\an8}And that's when I realized,
597
00:35:28,837 --> 00:35:32,087
{\an8}man, there was a lot of people
like my wife and my daughter
598
00:35:32,174 --> 00:35:34,554
{\an8}-who were at work and at school.
- [Alex sniffles]
599
00:35:34,635 --> 00:35:36,755
So I just started driving
around the neighborhood
600
00:35:36,845 --> 00:35:38,805
and checking all these different yards
601
00:35:38,889 --> 00:35:40,889
and finding all these dogs
that got left behind.
602
00:35:40,974 --> 00:35:43,274
[sobs]
603
00:35:44,394 --> 00:35:47,064
Oh, hey, Greg,
let's move on to the strays now.
604
00:35:47,147 --> 00:35:49,017
Okay, and now the strays.
605
00:35:49,483 --> 00:35:50,783
{\an8}Yes. Okay.
606
00:35:51,527 --> 00:35:55,697
{\an8}So, Tim, we have four of the dogs
here today that you've rescued.
607
00:35:56,532 --> 00:35:58,782
Let's...
Tell us a little bit about these big guys.
608
00:35:58,867 --> 00:36:05,617
{\an8}Okay, so these guys are from a family
who, sadly, their home burnt down.
609
00:36:05,958 --> 00:36:10,458
{\an8}I know that nobody likes feeling alone,
you know?
610
00:36:10,546 --> 00:36:16,466
{\an8}So, if someone out there is suffering
or in emotional pain, or needs a family,
611
00:36:16,552 --> 00:36:19,142
{\an8}they might want to adopt
one of these little angels.
612
00:36:19,221 --> 00:36:20,931
{\an8}I wanna give you a home.
613
00:36:21,014 --> 00:36:22,854
Greg, what the fuck
is happening right now?
614
00:36:22,933 --> 00:36:24,353
She's about to lose it.
615
00:36:24,434 --> 00:36:26,984
It looks like this one
might have found a home already.
616
00:36:27,771 --> 00:36:31,191
{\an8}-Isn't that right, Alex?
- It's just so emotional, everything today.
617
00:36:31,275 --> 00:36:34,185
{\an8}What you're doing, it's just...
it's beautiful.
618
00:36:34,278 --> 00:36:36,948
{\an8}-We're gonna get through this together.
- Mm-hmm.
619
00:36:37,030 --> 00:36:39,340
{\an8}-And God is gonna help us.
- Donny, no more close-ups on Alex.
620
00:36:39,366 --> 00:36:41,086
- Go right to Bradley. Stay on her.
- And cut off her mike.
621
00:36:41,118 --> 00:36:42,698
{\an8}[Chip]
Wrap it up, now. Wrap it.
622
00:36:42,786 --> 00:36:45,616
{\an8}If you're interested in adopting
one of these incredible dogs,
623
00:36:45,706 --> 00:36:48,206
{\an8}you can find all of that info
on our website.
624
00:36:48,292 --> 00:36:50,542
{\an8}Unless Alex beats you to it, of course.
625
00:36:50,961 --> 00:36:54,211
{\an8}Stay with us for more special coverage
of the Huntley Canyon Fire,
626
00:36:54,298 --> 00:36:55,588
{\an8}here on The Morning Show.
627
00:36:55,674 --> 00:36:58,094
Okay, and we're clear. We're clear. Clear.
628
00:36:58,552 --> 00:37:00,142
[whispers indistinctly, sniffs]
629
00:37:03,056 --> 00:37:05,226
Oh. Thank you.
630
00:37:06,894 --> 00:37:08,654
Uh, excuse me.
631
00:37:10,189 --> 00:37:11,189
She doing okay?
632
00:37:11,273 --> 00:37:13,653
- That was great, okay? Thank you.
- Can I get that...
633
00:37:14,067 --> 00:37:15,987
Can I get that picture with her, or...
634
00:37:23,827 --> 00:37:24,887
- What's going on?
- [Chip] You gotta get in there,
635
00:37:24,912 --> 00:37:26,392
- you gotta do something.
- I think she just needs five minutes.
636
00:37:26,413 --> 00:37:28,023
- I don't have five minutes!
- Where is she?
637
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:28,870
She's in the trailer.
638
00:37:28,957 --> 00:37:30,287
- [clattering]
- Jesus.
639
00:37:30,375 --> 00:37:32,035
Alex, open the door.
640
00:37:32,461 --> 00:37:35,301
I literally need her on camera
in, like, eight minutes.
641
00:37:38,217 --> 00:37:41,507
[grunts, sniffles]
I'm fine. What is the problem?
642
00:37:44,515 --> 00:37:46,395
- You think she's fine?
- She said she was fine.
643
00:37:46,475 --> 00:37:49,595
- No, she's not fucking fine. I'm going in.
- Wait, you're going in there?
644
00:37:49,686 --> 00:37:52,606
Yes, trust me. I am very well-versed
with people on the verge.
645
00:37:53,232 --> 00:37:54,482
[sighs]
646
00:37:57,194 --> 00:37:58,404
[door opens]
647
00:37:58,487 --> 00:38:00,907
Oh, my God, what is wrong with you?
648
00:38:01,698 --> 00:38:04,988
Honestly. I don't want you in here.
649
00:38:05,077 --> 00:38:09,867
I don't want anyone in here.
What are you trying to prove? Jesus.
650
00:38:11,208 --> 00:38:12,878
[gags]
Oh, Jesus.
651
00:38:17,881 --> 00:38:19,721
[groans]
652
00:38:20,342 --> 00:38:22,852
[Bradley]
Okay. Okay. Here.
653
00:38:23,887 --> 00:38:25,757
I got you. I got you.
654
00:38:26,473 --> 00:38:28,353
[coughing]
655
00:38:30,018 --> 00:38:31,478
Just let it out.
656
00:38:31,562 --> 00:38:32,902
[vomits, coughs]
657
00:38:32,980 --> 00:38:33,980
It's okay.
658
00:38:37,484 --> 00:38:38,904
Come here. Come here, come here.
659
00:38:41,780 --> 00:38:42,910
Come here.
660
00:38:43,365 --> 00:38:45,155
- Okay.
- [sobs]
661
00:38:48,203 --> 00:38:49,333
It's okay.
662
00:38:51,665 --> 00:38:54,915
You're gonna be okay. You'll be all right.
663
00:38:55,502 --> 00:38:56,962
[whimpers]
664
00:38:58,463 --> 00:39:01,433
[sobbing]
665
00:39:01,508 --> 00:39:02,508
Here.
666
00:39:04,595 --> 00:39:06,595
Okay, breathe. Just breathe.
667
00:39:11,393 --> 00:39:12,643
[sighs]
668
00:39:24,406 --> 00:39:26,026
Okay. Oh.
669
00:39:27,034 --> 00:39:28,244
[groans]
670
00:39:28,994 --> 00:39:30,204
Okay.
671
00:39:32,539 --> 00:39:34,669
You can go now. I'm fine.
672
00:39:36,418 --> 00:39:37,708
You can go now.
673
00:39:38,295 --> 00:39:40,335
All right, I'm just gonna stick around
for a minute.
674
00:39:40,380 --> 00:39:42,510
No, no. Bradley, please.
675
00:39:43,592 --> 00:39:46,682
I want you to leave now. Okay?
676
00:39:47,971 --> 00:39:50,971
You got to see that.
You got to see me break.
677
00:39:51,058 --> 00:39:53,098
Whoo-hoo!
You got a really great show.
678
00:39:53,185 --> 00:39:54,385
All right? So, come on.
679
00:39:54,853 --> 00:39:56,363
Please, just go.
680
00:39:58,023 --> 00:39:59,153
Please, get out of here!
681
00:39:59,233 --> 00:40:00,613
Okay. All right.
682
00:40:06,073 --> 00:40:08,533
Yeah, I und...
I need somebody on standby, so...
683
00:40:09,785 --> 00:40:11,825
Hey, uh, what's going on?
684
00:40:11,912 --> 00:40:12,912
She's calming down.
685
00:40:12,996 --> 00:40:15,536
Just give her a few minutes
and then send in hair and makeup.
686
00:40:15,624 --> 00:40:18,674
I'll go cover the next segment.
Beyond that, I don't know.
687
00:40:19,253 --> 00:40:22,593
Okay. Um... thank you.
688
00:40:23,173 --> 00:40:24,423
Yeah. Of course.
689
00:40:33,976 --> 00:40:35,686
- [Alex sighs]
- [knock at door]
690
00:40:37,729 --> 00:40:38,729
- Hey.
- [Alex] Mm-hmm.
691
00:40:39,273 --> 00:40:40,273
Hi.
692
00:40:41,483 --> 00:40:43,193
Oh, yeah. Thanks.
693
00:40:48,532 --> 00:40:52,952
So. What the hell?
694
00:40:54,872 --> 00:40:55,872
[groans]
695
00:40:57,165 --> 00:41:00,035
Jason and I are getting a divorce.
696
00:41:04,047 --> 00:41:06,757
Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.
697
00:41:06,842 --> 00:41:09,512
No, you know,
it's been coming for a really long time.
698
00:41:11,013 --> 00:41:13,603
We haven't been in a good place for years.
699
00:41:17,060 --> 00:41:18,400
But just...
700
00:41:19,396 --> 00:41:20,686
It's Lizzy.
701
00:41:23,025 --> 00:41:27,315
That's my family,
and I don't know what else I have.
702
00:41:28,155 --> 00:41:33,155
Anyway, I'll handle it so that it doesn't
hurt the show any more than it has to.
703
00:41:34,203 --> 00:41:36,253
I'm sure there's gonna be some fallout,
of course,
704
00:41:36,330 --> 00:41:40,330
but, you know, we were America's family.
705
00:41:40,417 --> 00:41:41,587
Fucking bullshit.
706
00:41:50,010 --> 00:41:51,300
[sighs]
707
00:41:52,429 --> 00:41:53,889
That's good. Push that.
708
00:41:56,099 --> 00:41:59,059
Hey, uh, the press is putting out
all kinds of feelers
709
00:41:59,144 --> 00:42:00,984
about the Alex meltdown from this morning.
710
00:42:01,063 --> 00:42:03,003
Nope. No. Do not let them
make a big deal out of this.
711
00:42:03,023 --> 00:42:05,073
Alex Levy is not having
an emotional breakdown.
712
00:42:05,150 --> 00:42:09,530
She is simply moved by the fire and
the victims and all the sweet puppy dogs.
713
00:42:09,613 --> 00:42:11,453
- Stick to that.
- Right, copy that.
714
00:42:11,532 --> 00:42:14,162
- [phone buzzes]
- [sighs] Oh, shit.
715
00:42:15,035 --> 00:42:16,035
Hey, Fred.
716
00:42:16,119 --> 00:42:17,119
Goddamn it, Chip.
717
00:42:17,204 --> 00:42:19,044
Why the fuck is my property manager
718
00:42:19,122 --> 00:42:21,462
telling me that
there are investigators from TMS
719
00:42:21,542 --> 00:42:26,672
trying to interview the hired firefighters
working to save my home?
720
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,840
Yeah, that's a story
that Bradley's doing tomorrow.
721
00:42:30,926 --> 00:42:35,216
We didn't know one of the locations
was your property.
722
00:42:35,305 --> 00:42:37,845
Fred! Fred, Loki's been burned.
723
00:42:37,933 --> 00:42:40,773
Look. I'm in hell here.
My home might burn down.
724
00:42:40,853 --> 00:42:43,563
I gotta find somewhere
to put Geneva's fucking horses.
725
00:42:44,314 --> 00:42:46,024
Kill the goddamn story.
726
00:42:46,650 --> 00:42:47,730
[line disconnects]
727
00:42:49,278 --> 00:42:50,398
[sighs]
728
00:42:52,781 --> 00:42:53,821
Fuck.
729
00:42:55,617 --> 00:42:56,617
[sighs]
730
00:42:58,829 --> 00:43:01,829
[vehicle approaches]
731
00:43:12,676 --> 00:43:13,966
Oh, Jesus.
732
00:43:14,803 --> 00:43:18,433
- Everything I brought smells like smoke.
- I know. It's sexy, isn't it?
733
00:43:18,515 --> 00:43:20,175
[both laugh]
734
00:43:20,267 --> 00:43:23,397
[Bradley] Oh, my God.
Fires. Fires take it out of you.
735
00:43:24,146 --> 00:43:26,516
I just gotta see what Chip wanted
then I'm gonna pass out.
736
00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:28,730
- [Mia] Good night.
- [Bradley] Night.
737
00:43:28,817 --> 00:43:29,987
[scoffs]
738
00:43:32,070 --> 00:43:34,110
[Chip]
I hear you. It's not my decision.
739
00:43:34,573 --> 00:43:36,123
[sighs] But you're the producer.
740
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,330
Yeah, but it's Fred's network.
There's very little I can do here.
741
00:43:39,411 --> 00:43:41,501
What kind of news organization is this?
742
00:43:41,580 --> 00:43:43,420
I don't fucking know,
to be honest with you.
743
00:43:43,498 --> 00:43:45,628
I wish I had a good answer for that.
But I... I...
744
00:43:46,335 --> 00:43:49,085
I know I'm an annoying
pain in your ass, okay?
745
00:43:49,171 --> 00:43:51,771
But if it makes you feel any better,
I've been an annoying pain in the ass
746
00:43:51,798 --> 00:43:54,468
to pretty much everybody
I've ever worked with.
747
00:43:54,968 --> 00:43:57,928
I push. It's just my nature.
748
00:43:58,430 --> 00:44:02,520
And, and... Jesus, I wish to God
sometimes it wasn't.
749
00:44:03,602 --> 00:44:06,652
But I've realized I can't change it,
750
00:44:06,730 --> 00:44:12,320
and I guess I just... I learned
to just lean into the fucking turn.
751
00:44:13,445 --> 00:44:16,065
Look, I get it, okay.
You don't have to apologize to me.
752
00:44:16,156 --> 00:44:18,276
I'm not apologizing.
I was just explaining it.
753
00:44:18,367 --> 00:44:20,157
I understand, okay.
754
00:44:20,244 --> 00:44:23,664
I see you in that room today,
pitching me that story.
755
00:44:24,623 --> 00:44:27,253
- It's a fucking good story.
- It's a great story!
756
00:44:27,334 --> 00:44:31,214
It is. And I'm the fucking asshole
who has to shut you down.
757
00:44:31,296 --> 00:44:34,626
And I used to be you.
That's what I used to do. I used to push.
758
00:44:34,716 --> 00:44:39,096
But now I'm in this position
where I can't push anymore
759
00:44:39,179 --> 00:44:42,849
because I have to hold the middle
from being pulled to the other side
760
00:44:42,933 --> 00:44:46,653
and keep the whole fucking thing
from falling down the mountain.
761
00:44:46,728 --> 00:44:48,938
And then you wake up one day
and you're like,
762
00:44:49,022 --> 00:44:54,492
"Did I used to push? What direction
did I push in when I was even a pusher?"
763
00:44:54,570 --> 00:44:57,700
I don't know why I keep saying pusher
right now, but it's fucking...
764
00:45:00,158 --> 00:45:02,428
Let's just be clear.
You're not talking about drugs, right?
765
00:45:02,452 --> 00:45:05,052
Oh, no, I was a drug dealer.
That's what I was trying to tell you.
766
00:45:07,708 --> 00:45:10,168
You're pretty funny for a broken person.
767
00:45:11,628 --> 00:45:13,628
That's the sweetest thing
you've ever said to me.
768
00:45:13,714 --> 00:45:15,234
- Well...
- I want that on my tombstone.
769
00:45:15,257 --> 00:45:16,177
- [door opens]
- That's...
770
00:45:16,258 --> 00:45:19,758
Wind's shifted, guys, and we need
to pack up the site and move.
771
00:45:19,845 --> 00:45:21,005
- Right now.
- Okay, okay.
772
00:45:21,096 --> 00:45:23,426
[Rena] Right now. Come on.
Cars are waiting outside.
773
00:45:26,476 --> 00:45:28,436
- Hey, Bradley.
- Yeah.
774
00:45:30,189 --> 00:45:33,149
What if we said, "Fuck Fred"
and ran the story anyway?
775
00:45:36,570 --> 00:45:38,280
Can you be ready in time?
776
00:45:38,906 --> 00:45:41,196
Yeah. Yeah.
777
00:45:41,950 --> 00:45:43,370
- Let's do it.
- Okay.
778
00:45:44,536 --> 00:45:46,116
[shouting]
779
00:45:52,669 --> 00:45:55,919
Hey. Excuse me, guys.
Sir, can you talk to me for just a second?
780
00:45:56,006 --> 00:45:57,756
I'm with The Morning Show.
781
00:45:57,841 --> 00:46:01,221
How long have you and your team been
working here to save this private estate?
782
00:46:01,303 --> 00:46:02,433
Since last night.
783
00:46:02,513 --> 00:46:03,723
And do you think it's fair
784
00:46:03,805 --> 00:46:06,775
that certain wealthy people can afford
private firefighters to save their homes
785
00:46:06,808 --> 00:46:09,098
while others are forced
to brave the elements?
786
00:46:09,186 --> 00:46:12,106
There is no "fair" here.
People are desperate to save their homes.
787
00:46:12,189 --> 00:46:14,189
You can't blame them
for doing what they can.
788
00:46:14,274 --> 00:46:17,864
On the way here, a whole neighborhood
very close by was burned to the ground.
789
00:46:17,945 --> 00:46:20,695
Small homes, there weren't
nearly as many firefighters.
790
00:46:20,781 --> 00:46:22,501
People picking up
the pieces of their lives.
791
00:46:22,533 --> 00:46:23,703
What do you think about that?
792
00:46:23,784 --> 00:46:26,374
I wish everybody had extra money
to hire extra help.
793
00:46:26,453 --> 00:46:30,963
We're just doing what we can here.
This is America. Money matters.
794
00:46:31,416 --> 00:46:32,666
Thank you, sir.
795
00:46:32,751 --> 00:46:34,881
From Malibu, I'm Bradley Jackson.
796
00:46:45,055 --> 00:46:48,675
["Let's Burn Down the Cornfield" plays]
797
00:46:58,402 --> 00:46:59,862
Fuck you, Fred.
798
00:47:17,379 --> 00:47:18,839
[music continues]

805
00:47:52,206 --> 00:47:53,246
Claire.
806
00:47:53,665 --> 00:47:55,785
You felt too far away.
807
00:48:08,263 --> 00:48:10,313
[Claire laughs]
808
00:48:12,851 --> 00:48:14,521
What are you doing?
809
00:48:15,270 --> 00:48:16,650
[knock at door]
810
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:19,480
Coming.

00:48:26,698 --> 00:48:27,698
Hey.
813
00:48:28,033 --> 00:48:29,033
Hi.
814
00:48:32,996 --> 00:48:33,996
Um...
815
00:48:34,498 --> 00:48:36,918
I just wanted you to know
816
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:43,880
that I know
that I've been really erratic today.
817
00:48:45,759 --> 00:48:46,759
Okay.
818
00:48:48,303 --> 00:48:49,643
Um...
819
00:48:49,721 --> 00:48:52,021
There's more, um...
820
00:48:56,061 --> 00:49:01,321
Also, the reason
that I lost my shit earlier is that, um...
821
00:49:03,986 --> 00:49:05,986
I'm getting a divorce.
822
00:49:07,614 --> 00:49:08,994
Oh.
823
00:49:09,950 --> 00:49:11,370
I'm sorry.
824
00:49:11,827 --> 00:49:14,197
It's okay. I'll live.
825
00:49:16,456 --> 00:49:17,956
Is there anything I can do?
826
00:49:18,041 --> 00:49:20,211
No, don't... No.
827
00:49:23,839 --> 00:49:25,259
It's just, uh...
828
00:49:28,343 --> 00:49:29,553
my daughter.
829
00:49:32,222 --> 00:49:33,602
I don't want to lose her.
830
00:49:33,682 --> 00:49:36,522
I know she is gonna blame me,
and she's going to blame my job.
831
00:49:36,977 --> 00:49:38,057
And...
832
00:49:40,105 --> 00:49:42,765
I just can't stand the idea
of my daughter...
833
00:49:44,151 --> 00:49:45,901
thinking badly of me.
834
00:49:50,365 --> 00:49:51,865
That's a lot to carry.
835
00:49:53,827 --> 00:49:54,827
Yeah.
836
00:49:57,623 --> 00:49:58,873
Okay, good night.
837
00:50:10,511 --> 00:50:12,801
- [sighs]
- [dog barks]
838
00:50:14,473 --> 00:50:15,813
[sighs]
839
00:50:20,854 --> 00:50:21,944
[Bradley] Alex!
840
00:50:23,106 --> 00:50:24,396
- Hey.
- Yeah?
841
00:50:27,778 --> 00:50:28,778
Uh...
842
00:50:29,238 --> 00:50:33,988
Look, life is messy.
Everybody's life is messy and complicated.
843
00:50:34,409 --> 00:50:37,829
Parents and kids, it's a lot.
844
00:50:38,956 --> 00:50:41,786
And my... my mom is a fucking mess.
845
00:50:42,584 --> 00:50:44,804
I don't know what to do with her
half the time.
846
00:50:46,296 --> 00:50:51,426
And it's probably because...
my dad was a real bad drunk,
847
00:50:51,510 --> 00:50:57,020
and... and... one time he was
driving the car, and he killed a kid.
848
00:51:01,395 --> 00:51:05,605
And I only say that
because I was furious with my dad.
849
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,400
And I pushed him out of my life.
850
00:51:09,611 --> 00:51:11,611
But I never stopped loving him.
851
00:51:13,532 --> 00:51:17,122
And that's just how it is
with parents and kids.
852
00:51:18,996 --> 00:51:22,996
And I guarantee, no matter
what you didn't do for your daughter,
853
00:51:23,083 --> 00:51:26,383
that you think you didn't make
some perfect life,
854
00:51:26,461 --> 00:51:29,011
whatever the fuck that is, for her,
855
00:51:30,507 --> 00:51:32,627
she loves you so much.
856
00:51:34,845 --> 00:51:35,965
Thank you.
857
00:51:39,474 --> 00:51:44,064
You're actually pretty lovable
when you're not acting like a wet cat.
858
00:51:44,146 --> 00:51:46,316
[laughs]
859
00:51:46,398 --> 00:51:49,528
And I want you to know
that you can trust me.
860
00:51:50,527 --> 00:51:54,447
You can tell me things.
You can be vulnerable. It's okay.
861
00:51:57,910 --> 00:52:01,160
Okay. Thank you.
862
00:52:02,956 --> 00:52:04,706
- Night.
- Good night.
863
00:52:16,428 --> 00:52:20,848
[slow guitar riff starts]
864
00:52:23,143 --> 00:52:24,943
[inhales]
865
00:52:25,020 --> 00:52:29,230
[sirens wail in distance]
866
00:52:29,316 --> 00:52:32,106
["I Feel Like I'm Drowning" plays]
867
00:53:18,574 --> 00:53:19,994
[phone line rings]
868
00:53:23,161 --> 00:53:24,751
Hey, Cory. It's Chip.
869
00:53:24,830 --> 00:53:25,910
What's up?
870
00:53:26,415 --> 00:53:28,205
I think I'm ready to talk.
871
00:53:52,441 --> 00:53:53,781
[music continues]
872
00:54:48,997 --> 00:54:50,827
[music continues]
