1
00:00:06,170 --> 00:00:07,650
Oh, hey, Calvin.
2
00:00:07,850 --> 00:00:10,990
Ah, you sure are working on
your truck a lot these days.
3
00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:14,560
Well, a classic truck
like this needs a lot of TLC.
4
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,460
It's keeping you
pretty busy, huh?
5
00:00:16,660 --> 00:00:18,500
What's your point, Dave?
6
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:20,800
No point. Just...
Just an observation.
7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,900
Good. So you're not
going to say anything else?
8
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:25,420
Nope.
9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,780
Just can't help
but wonder...
10
00:00:29,980 --> 00:00:31,940
if it's because
you sold the Pit Stop.
11
00:00:32,150 --> 00:00:35,080
Sure, you made a nice chunk
of change, but now your future
12
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,620
is just one big question mark,
looking off into the abyss.
13
00:00:38,820 --> 00:00:42,620
Well, I was looking into my
engine before you bothered me.
14
00:00:42,820 --> 00:00:44,390
My rocker arms are knocking.
15
00:00:44,590 --> 00:00:46,290
I just need to adjust
my harmonic balancer.
16
00:00:46,490 --> 00:00:47,930
You know, Calvin...
17
00:00:48,130 --> 00:00:50,800
those are made-up
things, aren't they?
18
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,730
No, they're not, Dave.
19
00:00:52,930 --> 00:00:55,970
Look, I just sold
the Pit Stop a minute ago.
20
00:00:56,170 --> 00:00:59,440
I'm-a find my next thing.
But who are you to judge?
21
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,110
You built a birdhouse
with a door on it.
22
00:01:02,310 --> 00:01:04,040
Birds can't open doors.
23
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,010
It is not a birdhouse.
It is a little library.
24
00:01:08,210 --> 00:01:10,120
It's a great way for neighbors
to share books
25
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:11,450
and build a better
sense of community.
26
00:01:11,650 --> 00:01:15,020
And it is a great
father/son project.
27
00:01:15,220 --> 00:01:16,220
Can I put stickers on it?
28
00:01:16,420 --> 00:01:17,590
No.
Can I use the hammer?
29
00:01:17,790 --> 00:01:19,260
No, no.
Can I paint it orange?
30
00:01:19,460 --> 00:01:20,390
Oh, no.
Can I touch it?
31
00:01:20,590 --> 00:01:21,910
Grover, no.
32
00:01:22,910 --> 00:01:24,980
Cherish these moments, Grover.
33
00:01:27,220 --> 00:01:28,400
Will you look at that.
34
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:29,870
It's a copy of my book.
35
00:01:30,070 --> 00:01:33,070
You wrote a book?
Well, good for you.
36
00:01:33,270 --> 00:01:36,740
Uh, why is this the first time
I'm hearing about it?
37
00:01:36,940 --> 00:01:39,080
Well, you know, I don't like
to go around bragging
38
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,280
about being a published author.
39
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,850
Came out years ago.
40
00:01:43,050 --> 00:01:44,620
The Unboxed You:
41
00:01:44,820 --> 00:01:46,950
How to Get Out
of the Box You're In
42
00:01:47,150 --> 00:01:49,100
and Into the Box You Need.
43
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:51,520
By the time I'm done
reading the title,
44
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,510
I'm done reading for the day.
45
00:01:54,580 --> 00:01:55,630
That's too bad, because I think
46
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:56,860
that book could really help you.
47
00:01:57,060 --> 00:01:58,730
(chuckles) Did you
sell a lot of copies?
48
00:01:58,930 --> 00:01:59,700
Well...
49
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:00,930
You know, with a book like this,
50
00:02:01,130 --> 00:02:02,970
it's not really about
sales numbers.
51
00:02:03,170 --> 00:02:06,270
It's more about metrics,
like reach and influence.
52
00:02:06,470 --> 00:02:07,660
So that's a no?
53
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,540
You know what? I'm going
to put a copy in the library.
54
00:02:11,740 --> 00:02:13,750
(laughs) Okay. Dave,
is that why you built that?
55
00:02:13,950 --> 00:02:15,810
So that you could put
your book in there?
56
00:02:16,010 --> 00:02:16,920
Please.
57
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,900
So that's a yes.
58
00:02:21,140 --> 00:02:23,120
* Welcome to the block,
welcome to the neighborhood *
59
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:24,710
* Welcome to the hood. *
60
00:02:31,050 --> 00:02:32,900
Marty? What are you
doing here?
61
00:02:33,100 --> 00:02:34,330
Isn't today a workday?
62
00:02:34,530 --> 00:02:36,600
Yes, Father, but I've decided
63
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,700
to redefine what a workday
is for myself.
64
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:40,070
Oh.
65
00:02:40,270 --> 00:02:42,610
He's mad at JPL for
blowing off his great idea,
66
00:02:42,810 --> 00:02:44,460
whatever that thing was.
67
00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:47,680
It was a prototype
for a balloon to send
68
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,050
into the atmosphere
of Venus to collect samples...
69
00:02:49,250 --> 00:02:51,170
And I love it.
70
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:54,390
Yeah, well, they didn't.
71
00:02:54,590 --> 00:02:56,460
So as an act
of personal empowerment,
72
00:02:56,660 --> 00:02:57,960
I am quiet quitting.
73
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,860
You quitting that good job?
74
00:03:00,060 --> 00:03:01,830
No, I'm quiet quitting.
75
00:03:02,030 --> 00:03:04,510
I don't care
how loud you do it...
76
00:03:05,380 --> 00:03:07,450
I'm-a still
need you to pay rent.
77
00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:10,200
Quiet quitting
is a thing now, Dad.
78
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,640
Yeah, it's all the rage.
It's like, um,
79
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,990
streaking for millennials.
80
00:03:15,790 --> 00:03:18,090
It is nothing like streaking.
81
00:03:19,130 --> 00:03:22,110
No, it-it's a social
economic movement where
82
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,520
if you don't feel
appreciated at work,
83
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,320
you don't give them
your heart and soul.
84
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,750
You do the bare minimum.
That way, you leave the rest
85
00:03:27,950 --> 00:03:30,190
of the day open to do things
you find truly rewarding.
86
00:03:30,390 --> 00:03:32,340
So, what are you doing?
87
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,080
It's mostly playlists.
88
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,300
But, but...
89
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:39,630
I'm opening my mind
to finding that thing
90
00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:42,940
that truly fulfills me, because
my job isn't doing it right now.
91
00:03:43,140 --> 00:03:45,340
So you ghosting your career?
92
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:48,260
How do you know ghosting, but
you don't know quiet quitting?
93
00:03:49,220 --> 00:03:51,180
TINA:
There he is.
94
00:03:51,380 --> 00:03:52,950
There's my big scholar.
95
00:03:53,150 --> 00:03:55,650
I'm just taking
a couple of classes, Ma.
96
00:03:55,850 --> 00:03:56,720
Mwah.
Mwah.
97
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,750
Aren't you embarrassed, Marty?
98
00:03:58,950 --> 00:04:01,020
Here you are "quiet
quitting" your career.
99
00:04:01,220 --> 00:04:02,720
And your brother's
going back to school,
100
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,370
finishing his degree.
101
00:04:05,510 --> 00:04:07,760
Wait a minute.
Uh, I'm the role model now?
102
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,130
Yeah.
(laughing)
103
00:04:10,330 --> 00:04:11,550
That's in your face!
104
00:04:19,490 --> 00:04:20,440
Shoot.
105
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,110
Nobody's borrowed my book yet.
106
00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:24,180
The library's only been up
for a day.
107
00:04:24,380 --> 00:04:26,410
I bet the neighbors
haven't even noticed it yet.
108
00:04:26,610 --> 00:04:29,250
Gemma, did you leave
this vampire book in there?
109
00:04:29,450 --> 00:04:31,570
This is hot, smutty garbage.
110
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,700
I'm loving it!
111
00:04:35,870 --> 00:04:38,040
So people have taken your books.
112
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,760
That's nice.
113
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,530
What's wrong with Dave?
114
00:04:43,730 --> 00:04:46,000
He wrote a book a few years ago
and it didn't sell,
115
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,440
and now no one's even taking
it out of his free library.
116
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,600
Aw, let me see it.
117
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,010
The Unboxed You:
118
00:04:53,210 --> 00:04:55,040
How to Get Out
of the Box You're In
119
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,410
and Into the Box You Need.
120
00:04:56,610 --> 00:04:58,740
Ooh, wow. It's really...
I know, I know.
121
00:04:58,940 --> 00:05:02,350
Ooh.
I just wish somebody
would check it out.
122
00:05:02,550 --> 00:05:04,250
(sighs)
123
00:05:04,450 --> 00:05:06,850
Good luck because, honestly,
it looks kind of boring.
124
00:05:07,050 --> 00:05:10,320
Well, the cover's not great,
but the book's really good.
125
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,020
Somebody might enjoy it.
I doubt it.
126
00:05:12,220 --> 00:05:14,140
Tina, please,
just take the book!
127
00:05:15,610 --> 00:05:18,960
I'm telling y'all,
it's the next big thing.
128
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,830
An oxygen lounge?
129
00:05:21,030 --> 00:05:22,200
Yes!
130
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,940
All I got to do is knock
out that back wall,
131
00:05:25,140 --> 00:05:27,270
build out a quiet lounge area,
132
00:05:27,470 --> 00:05:30,660
and fill it with cool,
clean oxygen.
133
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:34,380
So what am I breathing
right now?
134
00:05:34,580 --> 00:05:35,210
Air.
135
00:05:35,410 --> 00:05:36,720
Doesn't air have oxygen?
136
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,640
I don't know, Calvin.
I'm not a scientist.
137
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,090
All I know is
people will pay me
138
00:05:43,290 --> 00:05:45,810
to let them sit in
the room and breathe.
139
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,690
Well, Que, what's stopping you?
140
00:05:48,890 --> 00:05:54,150
I'm just looking for
a little seed money.
141
00:05:55,450 --> 00:05:56,800
Why are you looking at me?
142
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,140
Well, I know you're looking
for the next thing.
143
00:05:59,340 --> 00:06:00,740
And when you
sold the Pit Stop,
144
00:06:00,940 --> 00:06:02,490
you got Diddy money.
145
00:06:03,390 --> 00:06:06,210
Well, Diddy didn't get rich
by selling air.
146
00:06:06,410 --> 00:06:07,610
Now, "diddy"?
147
00:06:07,810 --> 00:06:09,950
When I become
the king of oxygen,
148
00:06:10,150 --> 00:06:11,580
you'll be begging to get in.
149
00:06:11,780 --> 00:06:14,220
Oh, Que, will you stop
pressuring Calvin?
150
00:06:14,420 --> 00:06:15,620
Look, is he looking
for a reason
151
00:06:15,820 --> 00:06:17,020
to get out of bed
in the morning?
152
00:06:17,220 --> 00:06:19,430
Absolutely.
153
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:21,460
Is there a great book out there
154
00:06:21,660 --> 00:06:24,880
that might help him find
his way? You know it.
155
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,800
Is he looking at me
in a way that suggests
156
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,100
that I should stop talking?
157
00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:31,720
Definitely.
158
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,390
Look, Calvin,
Que's idea is clearly stupid.
159
00:06:37,690 --> 00:06:39,680
But if you're looking to invest
in a trailblazing idea,
160
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,880
I've got it.
It's a new kind of dating app.
161
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,980
Oh, Lord.
162
00:06:45,180 --> 00:06:46,750
Hold on. Trent,
let's hear it.
163
00:06:46,950 --> 00:06:49,820
Okay, so you know how
all these dating apps
164
00:06:50,020 --> 00:06:50,990
are just a free-for-all,
165
00:06:51,190 --> 00:06:52,530
people swiping left and right?
166
00:06:52,730 --> 00:06:54,060
Well, what if there was an app
167
00:06:54,260 --> 00:06:56,290
with a concierge where
they cut through the clutter
168
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:58,300
and find the right girls
for you?
169
00:06:58,500 --> 00:06:59,930
And you would be that concierge?
170
00:07:00,130 --> 00:07:01,920
You already know.
171
00:07:03,050 --> 00:07:05,900
So people would pay you
to find the girls?
172
00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:09,290
And I will pay the girls
a percentage of what I make.
173
00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:14,210
I might be mistaken,
but, um...
174
00:07:14,410 --> 00:07:16,010
(clears throat)
175
00:07:16,210 --> 00:07:17,580
wouldn't that
make you a pimp?
176
00:07:17,780 --> 00:07:19,640
Would you say that to eHarmony?
177
00:07:20,540 --> 00:07:22,790
It's an app, Dave.
I'm calling it...
178
00:07:22,990 --> 00:07:25,060
Trey's List.
179
00:07:25,260 --> 00:07:26,840
Of prostitutes.
180
00:07:29,210 --> 00:07:30,880
Nah, that name's too long.
181
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,140
Hi, Professor Pinkler?
182
00:07:38,340 --> 00:07:41,070
Uh, no, I am not the professor.
183
00:07:41,270 --> 00:07:42,370
(clears throat)
184
00:07:42,580 --> 00:07:43,840
I'm Malcolm. I'm a student.
185
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:44,910
(chuckles)
186
00:07:45,110 --> 00:07:48,260
Oh, you are?
187
00:07:50,030 --> 00:07:53,450
Yes, I am. I'm, uh,
back to finish my degree.
188
00:07:53,650 --> 00:07:54,920
Just took a little break.
189
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,640
Oh, to raise a family?
190
00:07:58,610 --> 00:08:01,440
No, to play baseball.
But thank you.
191
00:08:02,380 --> 00:08:03,460
Oh, hello.
192
00:08:03,660 --> 00:08:05,260
You must be Dean Ramilton.
193
00:08:05,460 --> 00:08:06,980
They told me
you'd be dropping by.
194
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,970
No, I am not the dean.
195
00:08:10,170 --> 00:08:11,470
(chuckling): I'm a student.
196
00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:14,110
Oh, uh, continuing education?
197
00:08:14,310 --> 00:08:16,370
No, regular student.
198
00:08:16,580 --> 00:08:19,860
Ah. G.I. Bill.
Thank you for your service.
199
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,380
No, no, no,
I'm not a soldier, okay?
200
00:08:22,580 --> 00:08:25,050
I-I'm a baseball coach.
At this school.
201
00:08:25,250 --> 00:08:29,500
And we are 11-2, so...
All y'all are welcome.
202
00:08:32,940 --> 00:08:35,040
Wow, pencils.
203
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:39,110
You got an abacus
in there, too?
204
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,240
All right, people, welcome.
I'm Dr. Pinkler.
205
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,570
Please open your Blackboard app
206
00:08:44,770 --> 00:08:45,970
and on the right-hand
drop-down menu,
207
00:08:46,170 --> 00:08:47,440
you can mark yourselves present,
208
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,460
then open the syllabus tab
and select "review."
209
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,540
So what's Blackboard?
210
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:05,810
It's an app.
211
00:09:07,510 --> 00:09:08,490
You need your login.
212
00:09:08,690 --> 00:09:09,730
It's in your portal.
213
00:09:09,930 --> 00:09:11,450
Right. (chuckles)
214
00:09:13,380 --> 00:09:15,400
I have a portal?
215
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,140
Uh-oh, Mr. Malcolm's confused.
216
00:09:18,340 --> 00:09:19,640
(laughter)
217
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,070
Mr. Malcolm?
I am not a mister, okay?
218
00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:23,410
And I am not confused.
219
00:09:23,610 --> 00:09:25,110
I just... Uh, I don't
have the thing
220
00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:28,210
to put my number in and make the
other thing open and drop down.
221
00:09:28,410 --> 00:09:30,450
Can someone help this man?
222
00:09:30,650 --> 00:09:32,120
He's a veteran, for God's sake.
223
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,890
I am not a vet...
224
00:09:34,090 --> 00:09:35,220
Whatever, man.
225
00:09:35,420 --> 00:09:37,410
Can you...?
226
00:09:42,850 --> 00:09:45,030
Well, my car battery is almost
completely out of juice,
227
00:09:45,230 --> 00:09:47,300
and I can't install
a charger at my house
228
00:09:47,500 --> 00:09:48,600
because my landlord is too cheap
229
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:49,970
to upgrade the electrical panel.
230
00:09:50,170 --> 00:09:53,470
(scoffs) Well, your
landlord sounds smart...
231
00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:55,590
and handsome.
232
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:57,740
Dad, come on.
233
00:09:57,940 --> 00:09:59,780
I thought you charged
your car at work.
234
00:09:59,980 --> 00:10:02,450
Well, yeah, I used to,
but now I'm going in later,
235
00:10:02,650 --> 00:10:04,520
so all the charging
spaces are already taken.
236
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,890
You see, I told you
to buy a real car, but no.
237
00:10:08,090 --> 00:10:10,740
You all worried
about the environment.
238
00:10:12,340 --> 00:10:13,630
Yes, I am.
239
00:10:13,830 --> 00:10:15,360
There's no way I'm ever
going back to a gas car.
240
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:17,300
Electric cars are the future.
241
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:20,500
Well, here in the present,
242
00:10:20,700 --> 00:10:22,890
looks like your ass
ain't going nowhere.
243
00:10:25,690 --> 00:10:27,610
Oh, hey, Malcolm, how was
your first day of class?
244
00:10:27,810 --> 00:10:29,740
I don't want
to talk about it, Mama.
245
00:10:29,940 --> 00:10:32,680
Ooh! Yeah, I know
that one.
246
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,010
That's what I used to say when
247
00:10:34,210 --> 00:10:35,410
I got picked on
in elementary school.
248
00:10:35,610 --> 00:10:37,380
And middle school.
And high school.
249
00:10:37,580 --> 00:10:38,620
And the first semester
of college.
250
00:10:38,820 --> 00:10:41,870
But then I found
my friend group.
251
00:10:43,540 --> 00:10:46,020
Yeah, well, they clowned me
for being old.
252
00:10:46,220 --> 00:10:48,730
They gonna ask me if I
stop my car with my feet.
253
00:10:48,930 --> 00:10:51,200
(laughter)
254
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:52,460
Like Fred and them.
255
00:10:52,660 --> 00:10:54,000
(laughter)
256
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,620
It is not funny.
257
00:10:56,690 --> 00:10:59,770
Wilma!
(laughter)
258
00:10:59,970 --> 00:11:00,970
Stop that.
259
00:11:01,170 --> 00:11:03,080
Leave my baby alone.
260
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,810
Yeah, well, then they all went
out for burgers without me.
261
00:11:06,010 --> 00:11:07,980
Oh, man, they were probably just
worried about your cholesterol.
262
00:11:08,180 --> 00:11:10,600
(laughter)
263
00:11:17,870 --> 00:11:19,140
Gemma!
264
00:11:23,710 --> 00:11:25,530
Someone checked out my book.
265
00:11:25,730 --> 00:11:27,670
What? Really?
266
00:11:27,870 --> 00:11:30,370
Oh, that's great
news, honey.
Yeah.
267
00:11:30,570 --> 00:11:32,300
You know, Calvin,
I'm telling you,
268
00:11:32,500 --> 00:11:33,610
you should really
check it out.
269
00:11:33,810 --> 00:11:35,070
It is finally finding
its audience.
270
00:11:35,270 --> 00:11:36,170
You know what?
271
00:11:36,370 --> 00:11:37,610
I should probably put more out.
272
00:11:37,810 --> 00:11:39,080
I hope I have extra copies.
273
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,030
Mm-hmm. Oh, you have three
boxes full of them.
274
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,040
Which is crazy,
considering how good it is.
275
00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:52,220
You know, Calvin,
what you're going through,
276
00:11:52,420 --> 00:11:53,560
it's very common.
277
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,330
After a big life change,
like... like...
278
00:11:56,530 --> 00:11:57,960
like the end of a career,
279
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,130
you know, it's very
normal to feel lost.
280
00:12:00,330 --> 00:12:03,590
Is it normal
to feel really annoyed?
281
00:12:05,090 --> 00:12:07,770
I'm just saying, it is
all covered in chapter seven:
282
00:12:07,970 --> 00:12:11,880
"Take the I Out of Failure
and Put It Into Success."
283
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,080
Where? At the end?
284
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,150
"Successi"?
285
00:12:17,350 --> 00:12:19,520
I'm serious, Calvin.
Let me give you a copy.
286
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,750
It could really help you.
287
00:12:20,950 --> 00:12:22,120
I-I don't need your help.
288
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:23,860
Well, maybe you
just don't know it yet.
289
00:12:24,060 --> 00:12:26,620
Now, see, this is what
you always do.
290
00:12:26,830 --> 00:12:29,030
You decide
that I have a problem,
291
00:12:29,230 --> 00:12:33,070
and then you decide
that you have the answer.
292
00:12:33,270 --> 00:12:34,470
It's condescending.
293
00:12:34,670 --> 00:12:36,720
Is it really?
294
00:12:37,820 --> 00:12:39,860
See, there you go.
You're doing it right now.
295
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,560
Don't you slam
your little door on me.
296
00:12:49,830 --> 00:12:52,480
So, if we're talking about
the Harlem Renaissance,
297
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:54,690
then you cannot leave out
Langston Hughes
298
00:12:54,890 --> 00:12:55,950
and Zora Neale Hurston.
299
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:58,670
Somebody read the material.
300
00:13:00,140 --> 00:13:02,110
Somebody was probably there.
301
00:13:03,310 --> 00:13:04,800
Right, Malcolm?
302
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,450
No, Kiefer, not right.
303
00:13:08,250 --> 00:13:09,630
Hey, Malcolm.
304
00:13:09,830 --> 00:13:10,670
Oh, are you on a Zoom?
305
00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:12,270
No, it's okay. I...
306
00:13:12,470 --> 00:13:13,710
Ah, I put it on mute.
307
00:13:13,910 --> 00:13:16,840
Okay, well, Mommy
brought you a study snack.
308
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,480
Ooh, yeah.
(laughs)
309
00:13:18,680 --> 00:13:21,300
You are the best, Mama.
Ants on a log.
310
00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:24,580
Ooh.
311
00:13:24,780 --> 00:13:26,220
Are those the kids
that were mean to you?
312
00:13:26,420 --> 00:13:27,390
Yep, that's them.
313
00:13:27,590 --> 00:13:30,390
Especially Kiefer,
in the upper left.
314
00:13:30,590 --> 00:13:31,320
Right there.
315
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:32,890
You know what, Malcolm?
316
00:13:33,090 --> 00:13:36,290
If they don't want to be friends
with you, that's their loss.
317
00:13:36,490 --> 00:13:39,560
You're smart and you're sweet
and you have a lot to offer.
318
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:40,900
You think so, Mama?
319
00:13:41,100 --> 00:13:42,430
I know so, baby.
320
00:13:42,630 --> 00:13:43,640
Oh, love you.
321
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,170
Mmm, I love you more,
Booby Butt!
322
00:13:46,370 --> 00:13:47,170
(laughter)
323
00:13:47,370 --> 00:13:48,410
All right, well, enjoy!
324
00:13:48,610 --> 00:13:49,810
Okay.
Mwah, mwah, mwah.
325
00:13:50,010 --> 00:13:51,040
Mwah, mwah,
mwah, mwah, mwah!
326
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,710
Oh, oh.
(chuckles)
327
00:13:52,910 --> 00:13:54,660
(laughs)
328
00:13:56,700 --> 00:13:58,400
Mm.
329
00:13:59,770 --> 00:14:02,170
That's pretty good.
KEIFER: Looks it.
330
00:14:04,970 --> 00:14:07,440
I am not on mute, am I?
331
00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:10,600
No.
332
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,200
Oh, damn, man. Oh.
333
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,870
Maybe I am old.
334
00:14:15,070 --> 00:14:16,700
Still not on mute.
335
00:14:16,900 --> 00:14:18,620
Oh, damn!
336
00:14:21,590 --> 00:14:26,640
Grover, I'm not giving
you $30,000 for candy.
337
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,120
Not candy. Crypto candy.
338
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:31,920
I heard you were
looking to invest,
339
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,640
and trust me, you want to
be in on the ground floor.
340
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,840
Here. I'm going to give you five
dollars to get off my porch.
341
00:14:41,010 --> 00:14:42,540
Go on, now.
342
00:14:45,150 --> 00:14:46,260
(sighs)
343
00:14:46,460 --> 00:14:48,230
I am so tired of everybody
344
00:14:48,430 --> 00:14:49,830
hitting me up
with their silly ideas.
345
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,170
If I wanted to waste my money,
I'd start a record label.
346
00:14:53,370 --> 00:14:55,190
(laughs):
What?
347
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,510
What is Dave's book
doing here?
348
00:14:57,710 --> 00:15:00,050
Gemma asked me to take it
out of his little library.
349
00:15:00,250 --> 00:15:01,810
No one else would.
350
00:15:02,010 --> 00:15:03,050
Are you surprised?
351
00:15:03,250 --> 00:15:04,680
I mean, what kind of
advice is this?
352
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,120
"A kernel of an idea
is like a kernel of corn.
353
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,510
It's never going to pop if
you don't get it off the cob."
354
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,460
You know what?
355
00:15:14,660 --> 00:15:15,940
This is weird,
even for Dave.
356
00:15:18,350 --> 00:15:20,530
What are you doing?
Going through the footage
357
00:15:20,730 --> 00:15:21,970
from our doorbell camera.
358
00:15:22,170 --> 00:15:24,400
Why?
Because I put out
three more copies
359
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,070
of my book and they've
all been taken.
360
00:15:26,270 --> 00:15:27,740
I want to see who my fans are.
361
00:15:27,940 --> 00:15:29,710
Dave, no! No.
362
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:31,380
Respect their privacy.
363
00:15:31,580 --> 00:15:34,050
They took your book
because they need help.
364
00:15:34,250 --> 00:15:37,970
You don't want this
to turn into a-a HIPAA thing.
365
00:15:41,270 --> 00:15:43,670
Is that you?
No.
366
00:15:47,310 --> 00:15:50,160
Then why did you
slam my laptop?
367
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,580
HIPAA?
368
00:15:57,420 --> 00:16:00,110
Marty? Why'd you take an Uber?
369
00:16:00,310 --> 00:16:02,540
Because, Dad, my car's battery
370
00:16:02,740 --> 00:16:04,040
isn't holding
a good charge anymore.
371
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,710
I had just enough juice
to make it to the mall,
372
00:16:05,910 --> 00:16:07,650
where half the charging spaces
were broken
373
00:16:07,850 --> 00:16:09,310
and the other half
were occupied...
374
00:16:09,510 --> 00:16:10,380
by gas guzzlers!
375
00:16:10,580 --> 00:16:12,720
Hey, I only park there
376
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,750
because it's closest
to the door.
377
00:16:14,950 --> 00:16:16,540
What?
378
00:16:17,340 --> 00:16:18,860
Anyway, replacing the battery
379
00:16:19,060 --> 00:16:20,460
is going to cost a fortune
at the dealership.
380
00:16:20,660 --> 00:16:22,290
So take it somewhere else.
381
00:16:22,490 --> 00:16:23,560
There isn't any place else.
382
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,130
No one else services them.
383
00:16:25,330 --> 00:16:27,200
Huh. So...
384
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,770
they get to charge you
an arm and a leg
385
00:16:28,970 --> 00:16:31,000
because they're
the only game in town?
386
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,440
Exactly.
387
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,070
Huh.
388
00:16:34,270 --> 00:16:35,510
What?
389
00:16:35,710 --> 00:16:39,360
Marty, electric cars
are my corn on the cob.
390
00:16:40,730 --> 00:16:42,380
Daddy, do you need to lie down?
391
00:16:42,580 --> 00:16:46,120
No, your charging situation
392
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:47,390
gives me a kernel.
393
00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:49,890
Now, we need to shuck
that kernel
394
00:16:50,090 --> 00:16:52,360
and pop that thing.
395
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,730
Let me get you a cold cloth.
396
00:16:54,930 --> 00:16:55,860
Mama!
Okay.
397
00:16:56,060 --> 00:16:58,300
Marty, listen.
Look, I'm fine.
398
00:16:58,500 --> 00:16:59,730
All right? Just think about it.
399
00:16:59,930 --> 00:17:02,030
For the first time
in human history,
400
00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:03,940
there are old electric cars.
401
00:17:04,140 --> 00:17:06,700
All right? And the only
people that service them
402
00:17:06,900 --> 00:17:08,210
are the overpriced
dealerships.
403
00:17:08,410 --> 00:17:10,810
So, somebody's going
to fill that gap
404
00:17:11,010 --> 00:17:12,640
and make a lot of money.
405
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,680
Oh, my God.
Are you a genius?
406
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,370
Are you just realizing that now?
407
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,890
Hey, Malcolm.
Okay, what you got?
408
00:17:27,090 --> 00:17:29,190
How old am I today, huh?
409
00:17:29,390 --> 00:17:32,050
What, did I save
Private Ryan?
410
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,350
Did I have a beeper?
411
00:17:38,550 --> 00:17:41,670
Malcolm, about that.
We feel awful.
412
00:17:41,870 --> 00:17:44,040
I thought we were
just joking around.
413
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,380
Now we realize...
414
00:17:45,580 --> 00:17:48,660
there's nothing funny
about bullying.
415
00:17:50,670 --> 00:17:52,280
Y'all didn't bully me, okay?
416
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,090
I am a grown-ass man.
417
00:17:54,290 --> 00:17:55,720
It's okay, Malcolm.
418
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,390
We heard what your mom said.
419
00:17:57,590 --> 00:17:59,970
We made you feel different.
Less than.
420
00:18:01,410 --> 00:18:04,150
We would cancel ourselves
if we could.
421
00:18:05,710 --> 00:18:07,300
Oh, canceling is when--
422
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:09,820
I know what canceling is.
423
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,140
Okay, people,
take your seats.
424
00:18:14,340 --> 00:18:15,510
The servers are down,
425
00:18:15,710 --> 00:18:19,340
so you're going to take
your quiz on Scantrons.
426
00:18:19,540 --> 00:18:21,550
Oh, man.
427
00:18:21,750 --> 00:18:24,670
Uh, Malcolm?
Yeah?
428
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,840
Could we borrow pencils?
429
00:18:32,540 --> 00:18:35,360
Well, I guess, uh,
430
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,980
they don't have pencils
in your portals?
431
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,200
The reason no third-party
garages fix electric cars
432
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,540
is the companies each have
their own operating system.
433
00:18:46,740 --> 00:18:48,940
And that's a problem?
Well, not for me.
434
00:18:49,140 --> 00:18:50,680
If you give me
their motherboard,
435
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,880
I can reverse-engineer
the software and mod the UI.
436
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,250
And that's good?
That's great.
437
00:18:55,450 --> 00:18:56,880
Well, all right.
438
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,880
Come on, Marty, let's put our
heads together, you know?
439
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,520
I mean, you're tech savvy,
and I'm savvy about business...
Yeah.
440
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,520
...and people and mechanics...
Mm-hmm.
441
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,660
...and marketing and looking
good and dressing well.
442
00:19:08,860 --> 00:19:10,700
Charisma, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
443
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:12,330
I-I get it, Daddy,
I get it.
444
00:19:12,530 --> 00:19:14,800
But, you know, why has this
never occurred to us before?
445
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,190
Because we've been
stuck in our own boxes.
446
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:20,810
Think of it like the jungle gym.
447
00:19:21,010 --> 00:19:23,810
The great idea
is up there at the top,
448
00:19:24,010 --> 00:19:25,940
and there are lots
of ways to get there.
449
00:19:26,140 --> 00:19:30,620
But sometimes the best route
is to go sideways
450
00:19:30,820 --> 00:19:33,000
and find a different path.
451
00:19:34,300 --> 00:19:35,640
(clapping)
452
00:19:39,210 --> 00:19:41,930
Oh, damn.
453
00:19:42,130 --> 00:19:43,230
You read my book.
454
00:19:43,430 --> 00:19:46,710
Chapter six: "The Jungle Gym
of Inspiration."
455
00:19:48,450 --> 00:19:50,540
Wait, is that where
the corn kernel came from?
456
00:19:50,740 --> 00:19:52,540
Ha! You read chapter 12, too?
457
00:19:52,740 --> 00:19:54,410
I knew it!
Okay, all right.
458
00:19:54,610 --> 00:19:56,040
You know, I may
have skimmed it.
459
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,190
It was a'ight.
460
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,500
It was a'ight.
461
00:20:05,670 --> 00:20:07,940
That's the nicest thing
you ever said to me.
462
00:20:14,610 --> 00:20:18,100
$30,000 for candy
that doesn't exist?
463
00:20:18,300 --> 00:20:21,670
Well, it exists.
You just can't eat it.
464
00:20:21,870 --> 00:20:22,870
Why not?
465
00:20:23,070 --> 00:20:24,440
Because it's in
the metaverse.
466
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,240
So if I want my candy,
I got to drive to the metaverse?
467
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,610
No, you can't drive there.
468
00:20:29,810 --> 00:20:31,140
It's on the Internet.
469
00:20:31,340 --> 00:20:33,210
But you can sell your
candy to somebody else
470
00:20:33,410 --> 00:20:34,750
for much more
than it's worth.
471
00:20:34,950 --> 00:20:35,850
But what's it worth?
472
00:20:36,050 --> 00:20:38,030
Today, nothing.
473
00:20:39,300 --> 00:20:42,400
B-But tomorrow, who knows?
474
00:20:43,470 --> 00:20:45,020
Boy, if you
weren't Gemma's son...
475
00:20:45,220 --> 00:20:47,090
Here.
476
00:20:47,290 --> 00:20:49,480
Take this five dollars
and get off my porch.
477
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,480
Go on, now.
478
00:20:54,120 --> 00:20:57,390
(sighs)
Works every time.
