1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:02,960
Previously on "God Friended Me"...
2
00:00:02,970 --> 00:00:05,590
We couldn't be prouder of
your nomination for bishop.
3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,340
During the walkabouts, you'll be meeting
4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,150
and answering questions
with parishioners,
5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,070
but there are sensitive
topics you want to
6
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,400
pivot away from if they come up.
7
00:00:13,460 --> 00:00:15,380
You mean my son who is an atheist
8
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:17,070
and my daughter who is gay.
9
00:00:17,090 --> 00:00:19,300
I did it. Five years ago,
10
00:00:19,310 --> 00:00:21,560
Simon Hayes goes to a New
York Presbyterian hospital
11
00:00:21,570 --> 00:00:23,390
for a bone marrow transplant, right?
12
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,990
Turns out the surgeon who
did the procedure...
13
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,610
John Dove.
14
00:00:27,620 --> 00:00:28,800
Are you okay?
15
00:00:28,850 --> 00:00:30,100
I think you just saved my life.
16
00:00:30,110 --> 00:00:31,670
How did your meeting with FreeVerse go?
17
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,340
They want exclusivity.
18
00:00:33,350 --> 00:00:34,760
Well, I write about the people we help,
19
00:00:34,780 --> 00:00:36,020
not the God Account.
20
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,570
That's the deal. Nothing's changed.
21
00:00:37,580 --> 00:00:39,070
I got invited to lunch
22
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,780
with the editor-in-chief at "Catapult."
23
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:42,620
I figured out where you
were getting your stories,
24
00:00:42,630 --> 00:00:44,220
but what I can't figure out
25
00:00:44,230 --> 00:00:47,260
is why you're not writing
who's behind the God Account.
26
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:48,800
You have to kiss her. It's bad luck.
27
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,740
What?
28
00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:08,740
- Looking a little winded.
- Nah. Who, me?
29
00:01:08,750 --> 00:01:10,580
No, no, no, no. These are...
30
00:01:10,590 --> 00:01:13,050
These are just deep breathes.
They're just taking in the...
31
00:01:13,060 --> 00:01:14,180
the fresh air.
32
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:16,460
If I knew that we were
running a marathon,
33
00:01:16,470 --> 00:01:18,180
I would have carb-ed up
last night at dinner.
34
00:01:18,190 --> 00:01:20,190
About that. I had fun.
35
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,120
Yeah, me too.
36
00:01:22,130 --> 00:01:23,580
I think it's safe to say
that our second date
37
00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:25,590
was light years ahead of our first.
38
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,340
Oh.
39
00:01:28,580 --> 00:01:30,350
Hey, it's John Dove.
40
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:31,690
He said he can meet us today.
41
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:32,900
- Oh, great.
- Yeah.
42
00:01:32,910 --> 00:01:35,170
Do you really think he can be the key
43
00:01:35,180 --> 00:01:37,220
to proving Simon Hayes is
behind the God Account?
44
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,620
I mean, it's possible.
45
00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:40,440
Dove was my first Friend Suggestion.
46
00:01:40,450 --> 00:01:43,180
If he saved Simon's life,
then maybe Simon sent me
47
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:45,310
his name to repay the favor.
48
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:47,410
Makes sense.
49
00:01:47,420 --> 00:01:49,320
And if it turns out to be true,
50
00:01:49,330 --> 00:01:50,820
then I'll have a lot to talk about
51
00:01:50,830 --> 00:01:52,730
in my first podcast for FreeVerse.
52
00:01:52,740 --> 00:01:54,750
I'm proud of you.
53
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,760
I know how much that
opportunity means to you.
54
00:01:56,770 --> 00:01:58,120
Thank you.
55
00:01:58,130 --> 00:01:59,800
It's all because of you.
56
00:01:59,810 --> 00:02:02,960
Oh, speaking of careers.
57
00:02:02,970 --> 00:02:04,730
I've been thinking about your lunch
58
00:02:04,740 --> 00:02:06,040
with your editor-in-chief.
59
00:02:06,060 --> 00:02:09,440
I think you should really
reconsider his offer.
60
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,460
- You do?
- Yeah.
61
00:02:11,490 --> 00:02:12,600
Look, whatever he wants you to write,
62
00:02:12,620 --> 00:02:14,180
you're gonna make it great.
63
00:02:14,190 --> 00:02:15,660
You always do.
64
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:22,280
Hey.
65
00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:23,880
You remember last time we were here?
66
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:26,550
Yeah.
67
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,020
How could I forget?
68
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,190
It was right after we had first met.
69
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,160
You told me to text you
if I ever heard anything
70
00:02:32,170 --> 00:02:33,660
back from the God Account.
71
00:02:33,670 --> 00:02:34,990
Hm.
72
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,900
I'm glad you did.
73
00:02:36,910 --> 00:02:37,980
Although, if I'm being honest,
74
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,140
I was gonna call you either way.
75
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,420
Really?
76
00:02:50,260 --> 00:02:52,450
So, uh, have you heard
anything from John Dove?
77
00:02:52,460 --> 00:02:54,150
Cara and I are gonna meet him today.
78
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,620
Hopefully it'll lead somewhere.
79
00:02:55,630 --> 00:02:57,000
Hopefully?
80
00:02:57,020 --> 00:02:59,290
Miles, we are on the cusp
81
00:02:59,300 --> 00:03:01,420
of proving that Simon Hayes
is behind the God Account.
82
00:03:01,430 --> 00:03:03,260
This is huge.
83
00:03:04,030 --> 00:03:06,100
_
84
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,180
Hey, this is new.
85
00:03:07,190 --> 00:03:08,710
The God Account just rated a seller
86
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,130
on Facebook Marketplace five stars.
87
00:03:11,140 --> 00:03:13,900
- Interesting.
- Karen and Richard Benson.
88
00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:15,970
Did the God Account actually
buy something from 'em?
89
00:03:15,980 --> 00:03:17,430
No, it doesn't look
like they have anything
90
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,910
- for sale at the moment.
- Hm, 'cause technically
91
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:21,710
you're not supposed to rate sellers
92
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,040
unless you have, like, a
personal purchase history.
93
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:30,250
Mm-hmm.
94
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,260
- Who was it?
- I don't know.
95
00:03:36,270 --> 00:03:37,810
Someone dropped off a package.
96
00:03:37,820 --> 00:03:41,360
It has my address, but
it's for Jen Levy.
97
00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:43,760
- Who's Jen Levy?
- I don't know.
98
00:03:43,770 --> 00:03:46,070
- Hm. Well...
- What?
99
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,900
The God Account rates a
seller on Marketplace.
100
00:03:48,910 --> 00:03:51,470
Two seconds later, a package
arrives at your door.
101
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,350
- That is not random.
- No.
102
00:03:53,380 --> 00:03:55,080
It's not.
103
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,120
Look at the name of the seller.
104
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,580
Karen and Richard Benson.
105
00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:05,810
- Synced & corrected by MementMori -
-- www.addic7ed.com --
106
00:04:07,300 --> 00:04:08,550
Mr. Hughes.
107
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,290
And we're sitting. Okay.
108
00:04:11,300 --> 00:04:14,700
You know, Cara, I knew
from Miles podcast
109
00:04:14,710 --> 00:04:16,600
that Henry Chase could
be a possible suspect
110
00:04:16,610 --> 00:04:19,900
behind the God Account, and
then you were kind enough
111
00:04:19,910 --> 00:04:21,600
to tell me you had two suspects.
112
00:04:21,610 --> 00:04:23,970
Yes. I did.
113
00:04:23,980 --> 00:04:26,180
So I started doing a little digging.
114
00:04:26,190 --> 00:04:29,350
It turns out that Henry
Chase attended Columbia
115
00:04:29,380 --> 00:04:32,000
with another pioneer in the
field of predictive analytics.
116
00:04:32,010 --> 00:04:35,100
They even won a few awards together.
117
00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:36,870
Care to take a guess?
118
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,010
Simon Hayes.
119
00:04:40,020 --> 00:04:42,190
- Simon Hayes.
- Mm.
120
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,910
Now, Simon rarely gives interviews.
121
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,280
But lucky for me, I have
some powerful friends,
122
00:04:48,290 --> 00:04:50,650
and I managed to score an interview
123
00:04:50,660 --> 00:04:54,190
with Mr. Hayes for tomorrow.
124
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,300
A journalist from "Catapult"
is taking that interview.
125
00:05:01,310 --> 00:05:04,630
The only question is, will it be you?
126
00:05:09,570 --> 00:05:11,750
For I know the plans I have for you,
127
00:05:11,820 --> 00:05:14,560
plans to prosper you and not harm you,
128
00:05:14,570 --> 00:05:18,250
plans to give you hope and a future.
129
00:05:18,260 --> 00:05:20,020
Jeremiah 29:11.
130
00:05:20,030 --> 00:05:24,390
These words could not be more relevant,
131
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,480
and that is my vision for
the Episcopalian church.
132
00:05:27,490 --> 00:05:29,850
And that's why I want
to be your next bishop.
133
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,900
I know I'm new to this, but it
seems like it's going great.
134
00:05:33,910 --> 00:05:36,690
Like I said, he's a natural.
135
00:05:36,710 --> 00:05:38,510
I think we have time
for one more question.
136
00:05:39,510 --> 00:05:42,040
Thank you, Reverend Finer.
137
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:44,460
I understand your son has a podcast
138
00:05:44,470 --> 00:05:46,030
where he promotes atheism.
139
00:05:46,930 --> 00:05:50,510
How do you expect us to
support you being bishop
140
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,910
when you've raised a son who
doesn't believe in God?
141
00:05:54,350 --> 00:05:56,620
Life is full of challenges.
142
00:05:58,300 --> 00:05:59,890
Some more difficult than others.
143
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:01,950
But I do believe our true character
144
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,260
is revealed in the face of adversity.
145
00:06:04,270 --> 00:06:09,230
I appreciate that, but I have to ask
146
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,570
do you support your son's views?
147
00:06:18,220 --> 00:06:21,230
In this instance, I do not.
148
00:06:22,790 --> 00:06:26,850
But it's important for us
to hold firm in our beliefs
149
00:06:26,860 --> 00:06:30,720
that the common bond that
unites us will guide us
150
00:06:30,730 --> 00:06:33,500
through even the most difficult waters.
151
00:06:36,170 --> 00:06:38,960
I think we're looking
at our next bishop.
152
00:06:46,010 --> 00:06:48,030
The Bensons are in 2W.
153
00:06:48,050 --> 00:06:50,570
You know, I was thinking
154
00:06:50,580 --> 00:06:53,480
the God Account never
does anything by mistake.
155
00:06:53,490 --> 00:06:55,950
So the fact that you
got Jen Levy's package
156
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,170
maybe she has something to do with this.
157
00:06:57,180 --> 00:06:59,650
Yeah, it's possible, but the God Account
158
00:06:59,660 --> 00:07:01,150
did rate the Bensons.
159
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,930
- Chances are, it's about them.
- Yeah.
160
00:07:10,710 --> 00:07:13,360
- Hi, can I help you?
- Hi. My name is Miles.
161
00:07:13,370 --> 00:07:15,400
- This is my friend, Rakesh.
- Hello.
162
00:07:15,410 --> 00:07:17,300
You wouldn't happen to be Karen Benson?
163
00:07:17,310 --> 00:07:18,700
- Yes.
- Oh.
164
00:07:18,710 --> 00:07:21,300
You sent this package to
my address by mistake.
165
00:07:21,310 --> 00:07:23,740
As you can see, I am not Jen Levy.
166
00:07:23,750 --> 00:07:26,940
Karen, who is it?
167
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:28,480
What are you doing here with that?
168
00:07:28,490 --> 00:07:30,950
- Richard, it's a sign.
- It's not a sign, Karen.
169
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,480
I'm sorry, we didn't want
to start any trouble.
170
00:07:33,490 --> 00:07:35,720
You're not.
171
00:07:35,730 --> 00:07:38,390
Andrea wants us to have it.
It belongs here with us.
172
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,780
We never should have sold it.
173
00:07:39,790 --> 00:07:41,820
We talked about this.
We don't want it back.
174
00:07:41,830 --> 00:07:43,460
Now please go.
175
00:07:43,470 --> 00:07:45,240
Um...
176
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:49,630
So what do you think is in it?
177
00:07:49,650 --> 00:07:51,330
I don't know.
178
00:07:51,340 --> 00:07:52,990
I was telling him we should just open it
179
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,690
and find out, but he's
insisting we abide
180
00:07:54,710 --> 00:07:56,640
by the U.S. Postal laws.
181
00:07:56,650 --> 00:07:59,500
When Karen Benson saw the package,
182
00:07:59,510 --> 00:08:01,140
she told her husband that it was a sign
183
00:08:01,150 --> 00:08:02,650
that Andrea wanted her to have it.
184
00:08:02,660 --> 00:08:05,130
- Who's Andrea?
- I'm on it.
185
00:08:05,850 --> 00:08:07,520
Okay, what about Jen Levy?
186
00:08:07,530 --> 00:08:09,190
I mean, could she have
something to do with this?
187
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,350
Rakesh looked into that,
188
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,660
but there were over 50
Jen Levys in New York.
189
00:08:12,670 --> 00:08:15,190
Well, maybe they made
a typo on the label.
190
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,830
Her address could be similar to yours.
191
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,330
Yeah, we thought of that too,
but none of the addresses
192
00:08:19,340 --> 00:08:20,810
came anywhere close to mine.
193
00:08:22,410 --> 00:08:24,400
Look, all I know is that
the Bensons are clearly
194
00:08:24,410 --> 00:08:27,800
going through something.
The question is, what?
195
00:08:27,810 --> 00:08:31,510
Actually, I think I know.
196
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,310
Andrea was their ten-year-old daughter.
197
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,450
She, uh, died three years ago.
198
00:08:47,870 --> 00:08:49,510
So, uh, any ideas
199
00:08:49,530 --> 00:08:51,370
on how we go about helping the Bensons?
200
00:08:52,910 --> 00:08:56,200
I don't know.
201
00:08:56,210 --> 00:08:57,940
I mean, after my mom passed,
202
00:08:57,950 --> 00:09:00,310
there wasn't much anyone could
do to help me through it.
203
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,420
You know, I had to get
there on my own time,
204
00:09:02,430 --> 00:09:03,790
and it's different for everyone.
205
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,260
Well, maybe that's why the God Account
206
00:09:05,270 --> 00:09:06,660
thinks you can help them.
207
00:09:06,670 --> 00:09:07,960
You know what they're going through.
208
00:09:07,970 --> 00:09:09,930
But I know what loss is,
209
00:09:09,940 --> 00:09:12,000
but not what they're experiencing.
210
00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:14,300
If we charge into their
lives without a plan,
211
00:09:14,310 --> 00:09:15,950
we can make things worse.
212
00:09:15,970 --> 00:09:18,500
So where do we start?
213
00:09:18,530 --> 00:09:20,740
Well, what about Jen Levy?
214
00:09:20,770 --> 00:09:22,400
Well, like I said, we've already tried,
215
00:09:22,410 --> 00:09:23,930
and we couldn't find her.
216
00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:25,750
Actually, we haven't tried everything.
217
00:09:25,790 --> 00:09:28,570
I mean, either the God Account
hacked the shipping company
218
00:09:28,580 --> 00:09:30,610
or it was an error.
219
00:09:30,620 --> 00:09:32,810
I could just take the
package, go to IdentitySeal,
220
00:09:32,820 --> 00:09:35,150
scan the barcode and
see what I find out.
221
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,050
All right, call us if you find anything.
222
00:09:37,060 --> 00:09:38,830
- All right.
- Yeah.
223
00:09:39,830 --> 00:09:43,250
We have to go meet John Dove.
224
00:09:43,260 --> 00:09:44,590
It's really good to see you guys.
225
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,220
I admit I was surprised
to hear from you.
226
00:09:47,230 --> 00:09:48,620
Yeah, yeah, it's been a while.
227
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:50,530
We figured it'd be nice to catch up.
228
00:09:50,540 --> 00:09:52,400
Well, things have
definitely turned around
229
00:09:52,410 --> 00:09:54,530
since the last time we saw each other.
230
00:09:54,540 --> 00:09:56,310
I'm practicing medicine again.
231
00:09:56,370 --> 00:09:58,330
I even got back together
with my girlfriend.
232
00:09:58,340 --> 00:09:59,990
That's great.
233
00:10:00,010 --> 00:10:01,910
The reason why we wanted to meet
234
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,160
is because we are trying
to get some information
235
00:10:04,170 --> 00:10:06,780
about a former patient of yours.
236
00:10:06,790 --> 00:10:08,550
Simon Hayes.
237
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:10,180
You did a bone marrow transplant
238
00:10:10,190 --> 00:10:11,350
for him five years ago.
239
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,110
I'm sorry, I just can't speak to that.
240
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,320
The doctor-patient
confidentiality and all.
241
00:10:16,330 --> 00:10:18,160
But why... why do you ask?
242
00:10:19,950 --> 00:10:22,060
Okay, this is gonna sound crazy
243
00:10:22,070 --> 00:10:24,330
because usually it does,
244
00:10:24,340 --> 00:10:28,360
but a few months ago I
was friended by someone
245
00:10:28,370 --> 00:10:31,140
claiming to be God on Facebook.
246
00:10:32,310 --> 00:10:34,430
And what did they want?
247
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,920
They started sending
me Friend Suggestions
248
00:10:35,930 --> 00:10:37,170
of people in need of help.
249
00:10:37,210 --> 00:10:39,390
So we help them.
250
00:10:39,450 --> 00:10:41,610
- Help them how?
- By finding things
251
00:10:41,620 --> 00:10:43,700
they can't see, like hidden connections
252
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:47,280
between strangers or
reconnecting family.
253
00:10:47,290 --> 00:10:50,210
Even saving someone's life.
254
00:10:54,730 --> 00:10:57,340
That... that was the reason
255
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:58,970
you followed me onto
the subway that day?
256
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,100
Yeah.
257
00:11:01,110 --> 00:11:03,330
You were my first Friend Suggestion.
258
00:11:05,570 --> 00:11:08,180
We're trying to find out
who's behind the account,
259
00:11:08,190 --> 00:11:11,550
and we think it could be Simon Hayes.
260
00:11:13,190 --> 00:11:15,610
Look, the Hippocratic Oath forbids me
261
00:11:15,620 --> 00:11:18,360
from talking about my patients.
262
00:11:18,370 --> 00:11:23,720
However, Simon wasn't
technically my patient.
263
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:26,670
He wasn't the recipient of
the bone marrow transplant.
264
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:28,680
He was the donor.
265
00:11:28,690 --> 00:11:29,940
Yes.
266
00:11:33,770 --> 00:11:36,150
I have to go back to the hospital.
267
00:11:38,290 --> 00:11:40,120
It was good to see you guys again,
268
00:11:40,130 --> 00:11:43,460
and, look, if you do find out
who's behind this God Account,
269
00:11:43,470 --> 00:11:45,660
you let me know. I owe them a thank you.
270
00:11:45,670 --> 00:11:46,950
Yeah.
271
00:11:46,970 --> 00:11:48,810
- Thank you.
- Bye.
272
00:11:51,230 --> 00:11:53,670
If Simon Hayes was the donor,
who was the recipient?
273
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:56,400
I don't know.
274
00:11:56,410 --> 00:11:58,710
But maybe they're connected
to the God Account somehow.
275
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:06,100
_
276
00:12:06,110 --> 00:12:07,520
Hm.
277
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:09,570
_
278
00:12:09,610 --> 00:12:11,470
_
279
00:12:14,270 --> 00:12:16,530
_
280
00:12:17,510 --> 00:12:19,550
Everything all right, man?
281
00:12:20,270 --> 00:12:22,560
Uh, yeah.
282
00:12:22,570 --> 00:12:23,970
Who's Jen Levy?
283
00:12:24,710 --> 00:12:27,350
I have no idea. Why do you ask?
284
00:12:27,370 --> 00:12:29,110
Oh, you have a rather large package
285
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,790
of hers on your table here.
286
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:32,930
Uh,
287
00:12:32,940 --> 00:12:35,240
I'm just... I'm holding
on to it for a friend,
288
00:12:35,250 --> 00:12:37,380
Miles Finer. He, uh...
289
00:12:37,390 --> 00:12:38,790
He got it by mistake.
290
00:12:38,810 --> 00:12:42,180
That's, like, super weird, right?
291
00:12:42,190 --> 00:12:43,410
Not really.
292
00:12:43,420 --> 00:12:45,890
I mean, you know, people get
sent the wrong packages
293
00:12:45,900 --> 00:12:47,090
quite a bit.
294
00:12:47,100 --> 00:12:49,520
Yeah, I'll have to let Miles know.
295
00:12:49,530 --> 00:12:53,070
You know, he works here.
296
00:12:53,110 --> 00:12:55,660
Oh, yeah, sounds familiar. Miles Finer.
297
00:12:55,670 --> 00:12:57,130
Customer Service, right?
298
00:12:57,140 --> 00:12:59,630
Wait, how'd you know I meant Miles Finer
299
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,310
when I never told you his last name?
300
00:13:01,330 --> 00:13:03,800
Because you told me his last name.
301
00:13:03,810 --> 00:13:05,570
About ten seconds ago.
302
00:13:05,580 --> 00:13:07,410
- Oh. Right.
- Hm. Mm-hmm.
303
00:13:09,670 --> 00:13:12,450
Anyway, uh, what did you
want to see me about?
304
00:13:12,460 --> 00:13:16,220
Right, so the Palo Alto
team arrives in one week,
305
00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:18,980
and before they get here, I
want to transform this room
306
00:13:18,990 --> 00:13:21,060
into a high-tech hub.
307
00:13:21,070 --> 00:13:22,760
I want the team on a secure server,
308
00:13:22,770 --> 00:13:24,520
the works. Can you do that?
309
00:13:24,530 --> 00:13:26,070
- Yeah, uh...
- Perfect.
310
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,700
I'll head down to IT right now
311
00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:29,130
and let them know what we need.
312
00:13:29,140 --> 00:13:30,750
Great. Go to it.
313
00:13:31,950 --> 00:13:33,710
- All right.
- Okay.
314
00:13:42,150 --> 00:13:43,530
Interview's tomorrow.
315
00:13:44,150 --> 00:13:46,590
Do I need to line up another
journalist to take it?
316
00:13:52,190 --> 00:13:53,750
No.
317
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,420
I knew I could count on you.
318
00:13:56,430 --> 00:13:58,990
Actually, I have one condition.
319
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,670
I'm listening.
320
00:14:02,990 --> 00:14:07,200
You built this company
on solid reporting,
321
00:14:07,210 --> 00:14:09,370
which means facts matter.
322
00:14:09,380 --> 00:14:11,270
Now, if I'm gonna do this article,
323
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,010
put my reputation on the
line, I need to put certain.
324
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:15,480
So here's my offer.
325
00:14:15,490 --> 00:14:16,790
I take the interview with Simon,
326
00:14:16,810 --> 00:14:18,750
but if I walk away
thinking he's not behind
327
00:14:18,770 --> 00:14:21,650
the God Account, we kill the story.
328
00:14:21,660 --> 00:14:22,810
Deal?
329
00:14:25,530 --> 00:14:29,170
This guy, Miles, must really
mean something to you.
330
00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:32,890
Yeah, he does.
331
00:14:32,910 --> 00:14:35,430
Fine.
332
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,530
But if Simon Hayes is
behind the God Account,
333
00:14:38,540 --> 00:14:40,130
you're writing the story.
334
00:14:44,710 --> 00:14:48,010
Stay tuned for more of
the Millennial Prophet
335
00:14:48,020 --> 00:14:50,880
right here on FreeVerse.
336
00:14:55,250 --> 00:14:56,920
Mr. Benson, what are you doing here?
337
00:14:56,930 --> 00:14:58,920
I'm sorry for showing up like this.
338
00:14:58,930 --> 00:15:00,720
My wife explained what happened...
339
00:15:00,730 --> 00:15:02,760
that we sent the package
to you by mistake.
340
00:15:02,770 --> 00:15:04,510
I got your address from
the shipping company,
341
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,860
and well I apologize for how I reacted.
342
00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:08,530
It's no problem. Come on in.
343
00:15:08,540 --> 00:15:09,550
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
344
00:15:11,870 --> 00:15:14,660
I don't mean to take up your time,
345
00:15:14,670 --> 00:15:19,410
um, it's just my wife and
I have changed our minds.
346
00:15:19,420 --> 00:15:21,870
- We'd like the package back.
- I understand.
347
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,420
Yeah, my friend has been
trying to track down
348
00:15:24,450 --> 00:15:26,610
the buyer, so he has it,
but I can give him a call
349
00:15:26,620 --> 00:15:27,830
and have him come by.
350
00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:32,180
Hey. Hey, Rakesh.
351
00:15:32,190 --> 00:15:34,090
I'm here with Mr. Benson.
352
00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:36,710
He was hoping to get his package back.
353
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,530
Do you mind coming by my
place and dropping it off?
354
00:15:39,540 --> 00:15:42,130
Uh, Miles, that's gonna be a problem.
355
00:15:45,740 --> 00:15:47,250
The package is gone.
356
00:15:53,170 --> 00:15:54,970
My friend thinks someone in the mailroom
357
00:15:54,980 --> 00:15:56,480
may have taken the package by mistake,
358
00:15:56,490 --> 00:15:59,460
but don't worry, okay? We will find it.
359
00:15:59,470 --> 00:16:00,830
Thank you.
360
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,340
Excuse me. Do you mind if I ask...
361
00:16:04,350 --> 00:16:06,320
What was in the package?
362
00:16:07,830 --> 00:16:09,530
My daughter's violin.
363
00:16:11,470 --> 00:16:14,130
She passed away.
364
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,640
Three years ago tomorrow, actually.
365
00:16:16,650 --> 00:16:19,050
I'm sorry.
366
00:16:20,250 --> 00:16:24,630
Doctor said it was a brain aneurysm.
367
00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:27,150
We were there when it happened.
368
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,590
One minute she was playing
in the snow and the next...
369
00:16:34,490 --> 00:16:37,870
Karen and I are rushing
her to the hospital.
370
00:16:39,930 --> 00:16:43,170
Even after all this time,
it doesn't feel real.
371
00:16:43,180 --> 00:16:45,250
Have you two talked to someone?
372
00:16:45,300 --> 00:16:47,420
Yeah, but these past three years
373
00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:49,930
Karen and I have become,
like, strangers.
374
00:16:51,290 --> 00:16:55,760
And I don't know how to fix it.
375
00:16:55,770 --> 00:16:59,100
I don't know how to
help her move forward.
376
00:16:59,110 --> 00:17:01,610
Which is why you sold the violin.
377
00:17:03,250 --> 00:17:05,750
My daughter loved music.
378
00:17:07,070 --> 00:17:10,830
That violin brought her so much joy,
379
00:17:10,850 --> 00:17:12,910
so much life.
380
00:17:14,130 --> 00:17:16,350
She would have wanted it to be played,
381
00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:20,630
not just sitting in a
box, collecting dust.
382
00:17:20,690 --> 00:17:25,060
I thought that passing it on would...
383
00:17:25,070 --> 00:17:28,270
I don't know, honor her memory.
384
00:17:29,950 --> 00:17:33,130
And allow us to finally take
that first step forward.
385
00:17:33,140 --> 00:17:35,139
I thought Karen would understand that
386
00:17:35,140 --> 00:17:36,280
more than anyone.
387
00:17:36,290 --> 00:17:37,580
What do you mean?
388
00:17:37,630 --> 00:17:39,790
She's a violin teacher,
389
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,530
and they had a really special bond.
390
00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:45,150
I found Jen Levy online,
391
00:17:45,170 --> 00:17:46,950
and she needed a violin.
392
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,180
But she couldn't afford one.
393
00:17:48,190 --> 00:17:52,310
I told Karen I thought it was a sign.
394
00:17:53,110 --> 00:17:56,190
Then when the violin found
its way back to us.
395
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,150
She saw it as one that you
were supposed to keep it.
396
00:18:02,510 --> 00:18:04,570
Yeah.
397
00:18:04,580 --> 00:18:06,900
Anyhow...
398
00:18:06,910 --> 00:18:09,000
I should get going. You
call me when you find it?
399
00:18:09,010 --> 00:18:10,370
Yeah.
400
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,090
Can I ask you something?
401
00:18:20,630 --> 00:18:22,580
Do you really think
getting the violin back
402
00:18:22,590 --> 00:18:23,690
will help your wife?
403
00:18:24,530 --> 00:18:25,710
No.
404
00:18:28,910 --> 00:18:32,230
But it's what she needs right now.
405
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,670
It's something I can't give her.
406
00:18:41,910 --> 00:18:45,520
Miss Bloom, nice to meet you.
407
00:18:45,550 --> 00:18:48,330
Shall we, uh, have a seat?
408
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,990
- Do you mind?
- No, no. Not at all.
409
00:19:02,030 --> 00:19:03,240
You know, I've been looking forward
410
00:19:03,250 --> 00:19:04,770
to sitting down with you.
411
00:19:05,470 --> 00:19:06,890
- Really?
- Yeah.
412
00:19:06,900 --> 00:19:08,710
I read a bunch of your articles,
413
00:19:08,730 --> 00:19:10,790
and, you know, they really spoke to me.
414
00:19:11,610 --> 00:19:13,500
- Thanks.
- I mean, this day and age,
415
00:19:13,510 --> 00:19:16,480
writing about people helping
one another and hope,
416
00:19:16,490 --> 00:19:19,740
you know, it's practically a
revolutionary act, you know?
417
00:19:19,750 --> 00:19:21,240
It did make me wonder
418
00:19:21,250 --> 00:19:23,640
why you'd want to speak with me?
419
00:19:23,650 --> 00:19:26,220
It just doesn't seem like
the CEO of a tech company
420
00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:28,930
is the type of everyman
you tend to profile.
421
00:19:28,970 --> 00:19:32,950
I guess I want to get to
know the man behind the CEO.
422
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,890
For example, your time at Columbia,
423
00:19:34,900 --> 00:19:37,970
and what led you to start
Singular Dynamics.
424
00:19:38,030 --> 00:19:41,190
That's what you wanted
to talk to me about?
425
00:19:43,050 --> 00:19:45,970
Well, unless there's something else?
426
00:19:45,980 --> 00:19:48,300
Well, why don't we start with telling me
427
00:19:48,310 --> 00:19:49,350
why you're really here.
428
00:19:53,570 --> 00:19:55,310
Fine.
429
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,810
I know you're working on something big.
430
00:19:56,830 --> 00:19:58,900
Like something that you've
gone to great lengths
431
00:19:58,910 --> 00:20:00,410
to keep secret.
432
00:20:00,490 --> 00:20:01,930
Uh-huh.
433
00:20:01,950 --> 00:20:04,620
A top secret project.
That's quite the scoop.
434
00:20:04,630 --> 00:20:07,020
Yeah, well, tell your boss
435
00:20:07,030 --> 00:20:08,830
he wasted a lot of favors, okay?
436
00:20:11,230 --> 00:20:13,070
Okay, your team from Palo Alto,
437
00:20:13,110 --> 00:20:16,700
the one that's been
working on this project,
438
00:20:16,710 --> 00:20:18,480
you're moving them to New York.
439
00:20:19,930 --> 00:20:21,360
Now, you wouldn't be doing this
440
00:20:21,370 --> 00:20:23,770
unless you were close to rolling it out,
441
00:20:23,780 --> 00:20:26,110
moving from trial phase to launch.
442
00:20:26,120 --> 00:20:27,630
That's why I'm here.
443
00:20:28,930 --> 00:20:31,370
Fewer than a dozen
people know about that,
444
00:20:31,380 --> 00:20:34,000
all of whom have signed NDAs, all right?
445
00:20:34,010 --> 00:20:35,830
It won't take me long
to find your source.
446
00:20:38,010 --> 00:20:40,070
I want to know what you're working on.
447
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,490
Give me something or I'll
run with what I have.
448
00:20:42,510 --> 00:20:45,610
Okay. Look.
449
00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:49,520
I've been working on
this a very long time.
450
00:20:49,530 --> 00:20:52,150
The trial phase went
live eight months ago,
451
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,960
and the results were...
they were phenomenal.
452
00:20:54,970 --> 00:20:58,040
My code will change the
course of people's lives.
453
00:20:58,090 --> 00:21:01,230
Next week I host a gala,
and I'm going to announce.
454
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,400
Hold off until after and
I'll give you an exclusive.
455
00:21:03,410 --> 00:21:07,170
I promise you it will be worth it.
456
00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:15,440
Dude, Bryan, good to see ya.
457
00:21:15,450 --> 00:21:17,780
- It's Ryan.
- I know.
458
00:21:17,790 --> 00:21:20,710
Uh, so mailroom told me
you were doing rounds.
459
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,580
Any chance you took a package?
460
00:21:22,590 --> 00:21:24,290
- No.
- From my... You sure?
461
00:21:24,300 --> 00:21:26,730
Yeah. What are you doing? Stop that.
462
00:21:26,810 --> 00:21:29,360
Dude, I just need that package, okay?
463
00:21:29,370 --> 00:21:30,730
If it was picked up,
464
00:21:30,740 --> 00:21:33,590
it's probably in the mailroom
for outgoing delivery.
465
00:22:00,210 --> 00:22:02,660
So you're looking for a
clinical perspective
466
00:22:02,670 --> 00:22:04,630
on how to help Karen Benson move on?
467
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,250
Do you have one?
468
00:22:06,900 --> 00:22:08,460
No.
469
00:22:08,470 --> 00:22:11,470
Because you can't, at least not
in the way you usually do.
470
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,070
I mean, I get it.
471
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,600
I never got over losing
Mom. You never forget.
472
00:22:16,610 --> 00:22:20,210
But at some point, I started
to reengage with the world,
473
00:22:20,220 --> 00:22:22,110
and I feel like Richard
is ready to do that
474
00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:23,790
but not Karen.
475
00:22:25,190 --> 00:22:28,120
People grieve differently, Miles.
476
00:22:28,130 --> 00:22:29,680
If she's not ready,
477
00:22:29,690 --> 00:22:31,650
pushing her will only make things worse.
478
00:22:31,660 --> 00:22:35,960
Richard doesn't think that his
marriage is going to last.
479
00:22:35,970 --> 00:22:38,010
I don't know how much
worse that can get.
480
00:22:39,170 --> 00:22:41,640
Unfortunately, most
couples don't survive
481
00:22:41,650 --> 00:22:42,770
the loss of a child.
482
00:22:42,780 --> 00:22:44,670
But the God Account thinks they can.
483
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,530
I just have to figure out
how all the pieces connect.
484
00:22:50,450 --> 00:22:52,610
- _
- What's that?
485
00:22:52,620 --> 00:22:56,080
Just got a friend request from Trish.
486
00:22:56,090 --> 00:22:57,710
She sent me one last week.
487
00:22:57,730 --> 00:22:59,420
You should check out that
photo of her and Dad
488
00:22:59,430 --> 00:23:01,010
at the church barbecue.
489
00:23:01,030 --> 00:23:02,850
What? What is it?
490
00:23:02,860 --> 00:23:06,990
Trish is friends with Karen Benson.
491
00:23:10,510 --> 00:23:12,360
Hey, Trish.
492
00:23:12,370 --> 00:23:15,700
- Miles, what a nice surprise.
- Hey.
493
00:23:15,710 --> 00:23:18,310
I just got your friend request,
so I thought I would stop by
494
00:23:18,330 --> 00:23:20,240
and let you know that we are official.
495
00:23:20,250 --> 00:23:21,670
Oh, whoo-hoo and here I thought
496
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:22,980
you were just ignoring you.
497
00:23:22,990 --> 00:23:24,320
What do you mean?
498
00:23:24,330 --> 00:23:26,210
I sent it that to you last week.
499
00:23:26,220 --> 00:23:27,990
I wonder why you just got it today.
500
00:23:28,050 --> 00:23:30,180
Oh, must be a glitch.
501
00:23:30,190 --> 00:23:32,750
Anyways, I was on your page
502
00:23:32,770 --> 00:23:35,620
and I noticed that you were
friends with Karen Benson.
503
00:23:35,630 --> 00:23:37,220
- Karen? Of course.
- Yeah.
504
00:23:37,230 --> 00:23:39,950
- Do you know her?
- Well, not until yesterday.
505
00:23:39,970 --> 00:23:41,510
She's my new Friend Suggestion.
506
00:23:41,530 --> 00:23:44,290
- Oh, I see.
- Yeah.
507
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:46,240
You know they lost their daughter Andrea
508
00:23:46,250 --> 00:23:49,130
- a few years back.
- Yeah, yeah.
509
00:23:49,140 --> 00:23:50,900
Things are still pretty tough.
510
00:23:50,910 --> 00:23:53,770
I was wondering if you
could tell me about her.
511
00:23:53,780 --> 00:23:55,540
Karen's a music teacher.
512
00:23:55,550 --> 00:23:57,810
Came into the shop from time to time.
513
00:23:57,820 --> 00:23:59,880
We became Facebook friends,
514
00:23:59,890 --> 00:24:02,350
but we haven't spoken in a while.
515
00:24:02,410 --> 00:24:04,350
Oh.
516
00:24:04,360 --> 00:24:08,690
By chance, would you know
someone named Jen Levy?
517
00:24:08,710 --> 00:24:11,920
No. Sorry.
518
00:24:11,930 --> 00:24:13,620
Another Friend Suggestion?
519
00:24:13,630 --> 00:24:17,290
Not quite, but, uh...
520
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:19,030
Anyways, I have to go.
521
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,460
Oh, wait, Miles.
522
00:24:20,470 --> 00:24:23,190
I actually really wanted to
talk to you about something.
523
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,960
I went to your dad's
walkabout yesterday,
524
00:24:25,970 --> 00:24:28,370
and I think he's having a hard time
525
00:24:28,380 --> 00:24:30,380
with what they're asking him to do.
526
00:24:30,430 --> 00:24:31,970
Wait, did he say something?
527
00:24:31,980 --> 00:24:34,910
No, but I... I could just tell.
528
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,710
Do you think that you could talk to him?
529
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,210
Yeah, yeah, I can,
530
00:24:38,220 --> 00:24:40,820
but if you're really concerned
531
00:24:40,830 --> 00:24:43,190
I think it would be
better coming from you.
532
00:24:43,210 --> 00:24:44,810
Yeah.
533
00:24:44,830 --> 00:24:47,390
- Hi, can I help you?
- Yes.
534
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,640
I'm looking for a nice violin,
535
00:24:49,650 --> 00:24:51,690
but I don't have much to spend.
536
00:24:51,700 --> 00:24:55,860
Unfortunately, we don't
have any right now.
537
00:24:55,870 --> 00:24:58,140
I can't believe this.
538
00:25:00,690 --> 00:25:03,690
I bought this amazing violin
on Facebook Marketplace,
539
00:25:03,710 --> 00:25:05,440
but it never arrived.
540
00:25:05,450 --> 00:25:07,780
I reached out to the
seller, but unfortunately
541
00:25:07,790 --> 00:25:11,850
- I haven't heard back.
- I... I'm so sorry.
542
00:25:11,860 --> 00:25:14,960
But you wouldn't so
happen to be Jen Levy?
543
00:25:15,030 --> 00:25:18,220
Yeah. How do you know that?
544
00:25:26,580 --> 00:25:28,900
So you're telling me
that the violin I bought
545
00:25:28,910 --> 00:25:30,670
from the Bensons ended up at your house.
546
00:25:30,700 --> 00:25:32,170
- Yeah.
- How's that possible?
547
00:25:32,190 --> 00:25:33,400
I have no idea.
548
00:25:33,410 --> 00:25:35,870
Someone must have messed
up on the shipping label.
549
00:25:35,890 --> 00:25:39,170
And then I meet you here.
That's a crazy coincidence.
550
00:25:39,220 --> 00:25:40,910
Well, the world's full of them.
551
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,080
But this is great.
552
00:25:42,090 --> 00:25:43,330
Can we go to your house and pick it up?
553
00:25:43,350 --> 00:25:45,660
Actually, I kind of lost it.
554
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:48,200
It's a long story, but
I promised the Bensons
555
00:25:48,210 --> 00:25:50,700
if I found it, I would
return it to them.
556
00:25:50,710 --> 00:25:53,470
They changed their minds
about selling it.
557
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,350
I'm sorry.
558
00:25:56,170 --> 00:25:59,250
I knew this was too good to be true.
559
00:25:59,330 --> 00:26:01,410
She's gonna be so disappointed.
560
00:26:01,990 --> 00:26:03,440
Who?
561
00:26:03,450 --> 00:26:04,880
My daughter, Lindsay.
562
00:26:04,890 --> 00:26:08,590
She's 13, and tonight's
kind of a special occasion.
563
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,930
It's her first recital.
564
00:26:10,940 --> 00:26:12,930
She's been playing an
old beat-up instrument,
565
00:26:12,940 --> 00:26:15,100
so I wanted to do something
special for her.
566
00:26:15,110 --> 00:26:18,230
And that's when I saw the
Holstein violin on Facebook,
567
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,740
and the Bensons agreed to
sell it for next to nothing.
568
00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:23,440
I know it sounds silly,
569
00:26:23,450 --> 00:26:26,820
but finding them felt
like it was meant to be.
570
00:26:26,870 --> 00:26:29,310
Look, I... I can't make any promises,
571
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,150
but if the violin turns up,
572
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,530
I'll talk to the Bensons
and see what I can do.
573
00:26:36,030 --> 00:26:37,490
Thank you.
574
00:26:40,630 --> 00:26:42,560
So you think the God
Account wants us to get
575
00:26:42,570 --> 00:26:44,020
Mrs. Benson to see Lindsay play.
576
00:26:44,030 --> 00:26:46,590
Maybe seeing Lindsay
with Andrea's violin
577
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,600
and hearing it played
again is what she needs
578
00:26:48,610 --> 00:26:50,360
to finally take that step forward.
579
00:26:50,370 --> 00:26:52,370
Yeah, it makes sense.
580
00:26:52,380 --> 00:26:54,540
It's just one problem.
581
00:26:54,550 --> 00:26:56,340
We don't have the violin.
582
00:26:56,350 --> 00:26:58,680
- Mm-hmm.
- I'll text Rakesh.
583
00:27:00,580 --> 00:27:02,990
Miles? Open up.
584
00:27:05,510 --> 00:27:07,010
- Hey, what's up?
- Hey.
585
00:27:07,020 --> 00:27:09,480
So I found it.
586
00:27:09,490 --> 00:27:11,490
- You did? That's great.
- Mm-hmm.
587
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:12,550
Where is it?
588
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,490
Well, someone in the mailroom
589
00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:16,430
grabbed it off of my desk by mistake
590
00:27:16,450 --> 00:27:17,780
and had it sent out by courier,
591
00:27:17,790 --> 00:27:19,310
but that's a good thing
592
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,330
'cause the company we use
is a very reliable one.
593
00:27:22,340 --> 00:27:24,770
So I've been tracking
them on my phone, and...
594
00:27:24,780 --> 00:27:29,500
they should be here in three, two, one.
595
00:27:33,850 --> 00:27:35,950
Nice.
596
00:27:36,970 --> 00:27:38,850
So how's work, Cara?
597
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,220
Huh? Fine. Why?
598
00:27:42,230 --> 00:27:43,800
You really think you can
interview Simon Hayes
599
00:27:43,810 --> 00:27:46,310
in IdentitySeal and one
of us wouldn't see you?
600
00:27:47,260 --> 00:27:49,050
Okay, look, my boss arranged it.
601
00:27:49,060 --> 00:27:50,260
I had no choice.
602
00:27:50,270 --> 00:27:52,130
You and Miles had a deal
that you wouldn't write
603
00:27:52,140 --> 00:27:53,550
about the God Account,
604
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,650
and if that's changed,
you need to tell him.
605
00:27:56,670 --> 00:27:59,130
All right.
606
00:27:59,140 --> 00:28:00,400
- Got it.
- Great.
607
00:28:00,410 --> 00:28:02,000
Now we just need to convince
608
00:28:02,010 --> 00:28:03,570
Karen to see Lindsay play.
609
00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:05,670
That is not gonna be easy.
610
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,920
No, but I have an idea of
how we can get her there.
611
00:28:09,950 --> 00:28:11,880
Arthur, hi. Do you have a minute?
612
00:28:11,890 --> 00:28:14,580
Of course. We didn't
get a chance to talk
613
00:28:14,590 --> 00:28:16,380
after the walkabout yesterday.
614
00:28:16,390 --> 00:28:18,310
Well, you were in a deep
conversation with Diana.
615
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,570
I didn't really want to interrupt.
616
00:28:19,590 --> 00:28:22,150
Well... ?
617
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,610
What did you think?
618
00:28:23,630 --> 00:28:26,570
The parishioners loved you.
619
00:28:28,870 --> 00:28:30,830
But... ?
620
00:28:36,410 --> 00:28:39,070
When the board suggested that you play
621
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,070
the political game to win the election,
622
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,740
I saw their point, and I even pushed you
623
00:28:43,750 --> 00:28:46,820
to talk to Miles and Ali
when you were having doubts.
624
00:28:47,710 --> 00:28:49,470
But I think I was wrong.
625
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,750
You don't want to
become bishop this way,
626
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,020
pretending to be someone you're not.
627
00:28:55,030 --> 00:28:57,860
No, I want to become bishop
to be the person that I am
628
00:28:57,870 --> 00:28:59,850
to make change for the better,
629
00:28:59,860 --> 00:29:02,550
and to ensure that the
church takes a step forward
630
00:29:02,570 --> 00:29:04,660
- and not backward.
- Then show them that now.
631
00:29:04,670 --> 00:29:06,800
- Not later.
- I will.
632
00:29:06,810 --> 00:29:09,950
- But when the time is right.
- The time is right.
633
00:29:11,190 --> 00:29:14,740
If you don't win as the real you,
634
00:29:14,750 --> 00:29:17,290
I'm afraid you'll regret
how you got there.
635
00:29:20,390 --> 00:29:22,950
I found Andrea's violin.
636
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,120
Thank God. Where is it?
637
00:29:26,130 --> 00:29:29,170
I gave it back to the
person you sold it to.
638
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,530
Why would you do that?
639
00:29:31,540 --> 00:29:33,900
Because her daughter is a violinist
640
00:29:33,910 --> 00:29:35,850
and she has a recital tonight.
641
00:29:35,860 --> 00:29:39,200
Look, I cannot imagine what
you are going through.
642
00:29:39,210 --> 00:29:42,670
No, you can't.
643
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,300
We didn't just lose Andrea.
We lost our future.
644
00:29:46,310 --> 00:29:49,910
Watching Andrea grow up,
fall in love, get married,
645
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,110
play Carnegie Hall... we lost all of it.
646
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,750
Three years ago today and it
still feels like yesterday.
647
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,150
- Karen...
- No.
648
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,750
I know you're ready to
move forward, but I'm not.
649
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,890
Because I don't know how to do that.
650
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:07,210
I don't know who I'm supposed to be.
651
00:30:09,370 --> 00:30:12,030
All I know is that I'm trying
to hold on to her memory
652
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,140
as best I can.
653
00:30:14,210 --> 00:30:17,200
And if I get rid of the one
thing that she loved the most,
654
00:30:17,210 --> 00:30:19,430
I'll have nothing left
to remember her by.
655
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,970
Letting go of Andrea's
violin does not mean
656
00:30:21,980 --> 00:30:23,690
that you're letting go of her.
657
00:30:24,620 --> 00:30:26,540
Miles is right.
658
00:30:26,550 --> 00:30:28,380
Her violin can keep making music,
659
00:30:28,390 --> 00:30:30,480
keep making people happy.
660
00:30:30,490 --> 00:30:32,960
It's what Andrea would want.
661
00:30:34,170 --> 00:30:36,290
Please.
662
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:39,360
All I'm asking you to do
is come to the recital.
663
00:30:39,370 --> 00:30:41,560
If you want the violin back after that,
664
00:30:41,570 --> 00:30:42,770
it's yours.
665
00:30:49,610 --> 00:30:51,490
Our last performer of the evening,
666
00:30:51,500 --> 00:30:54,470
playing the violin, Lindsay Levy.
667
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,310
Looks like they saved the best for last.
668
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,180
I know you'll do that violin proud.
669
00:30:59,190 --> 00:31:00,650
Thanks.
670
00:31:02,090 --> 00:31:04,590
- See you after the show.
- Yeah.
671
00:31:10,630 --> 00:31:13,770
- Any sign of the Bensons?
- No.
672
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,730
Hey.
673
00:32:01,750 --> 00:32:03,000
Hey.
674
00:32:03,060 --> 00:32:06,160
Where's Karen?
675
00:32:06,220 --> 00:32:09,330
She's not coming.
676
00:32:09,340 --> 00:32:11,760
She just couldn't do it.
677
00:32:12,740 --> 00:32:14,480
Why did you?
678
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,000
I wanted to hear my daughter's violin
679
00:32:17,010 --> 00:32:18,150
played one more time.
680
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,280
But when I close my eyes, it's like
681
00:32:25,290 --> 00:32:27,520
Andrea's playing.
682
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,560
Like she's here.
683
00:32:31,660 --> 00:32:35,060
I remember her first recital.
684
00:32:35,070 --> 00:32:38,260
Karen was so nervous.
685
00:32:38,270 --> 00:32:40,990
The moment she started to play,
686
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,340
she grabbed my hand so tight.
687
00:32:45,420 --> 00:32:47,900
I thought she'd never let go.
688
00:32:50,540 --> 00:32:53,820
It's been a long time since
we had a moment like that.
689
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,110
I thought if she came tonight,
690
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,420
she might remember that.
691
00:33:02,660 --> 00:33:04,940
But I couldn't get through to her.
692
00:33:06,660 --> 00:33:09,740
I don't think I ever will.
693
00:33:11,860 --> 00:33:15,760
- Thanks for trying.
- Yeah.
694
00:33:25,810 --> 00:33:27,700
I'm sorry, Miles.
695
00:33:27,710 --> 00:33:29,550
I really thought we had it figured out.
696
00:33:29,590 --> 00:33:31,540
All the pieces were
set to come together.
697
00:33:31,550 --> 00:33:32,630
Yeah, I guess we were wrong.
698
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,910
Maybe for the first time we just
699
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,570
can't help our Friend Suggestion.
700
00:33:36,580 --> 00:33:38,510
I hate to say it, but I think
701
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,580
maybe the one thing Mrs.
Benson needs is the one thing
702
00:33:40,590 --> 00:33:43,110
you can't give her... her daughter back.
703
00:33:43,130 --> 00:33:44,520
Yeah, but it doesn't make any sense.
704
00:33:44,530 --> 00:33:45,870
Why would the God Account go through
705
00:33:45,890 --> 00:33:48,250
all this trouble sending us the Bensons,
706
00:33:48,260 --> 00:33:51,830
Andrea's violin, Jen Levy.
707
00:33:54,290 --> 00:33:56,190
Is that John Dove?
708
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,650
Hm?
709
00:33:58,340 --> 00:34:02,560
Wait, how does John Dove know Jen Levy?
710
00:34:02,570 --> 00:34:04,740
We're about to find out.
711
00:34:06,570 --> 00:34:08,540
You're a real talent.
712
00:34:08,550 --> 00:34:10,710
John.
713
00:34:10,720 --> 00:34:13,940
Miles, Cara, what are
you guys doing here?
714
00:34:13,950 --> 00:34:18,850
Uh, Jen and I, uh, are new friends,
715
00:34:18,860 --> 00:34:21,020
and we came to hear Lindsay play.
716
00:34:21,030 --> 00:34:22,260
How do you all know each other?
717
00:34:22,270 --> 00:34:24,390
John is Lindsay's doctor.
718
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:25,960
He saved her life.
719
00:34:25,970 --> 00:34:28,590
In fact, that was three years ago today.
720
00:34:32,940 --> 00:34:34,230
Miles.
721
00:34:34,240 --> 00:34:37,010
What's going on?
722
00:34:39,780 --> 00:34:41,920
Andrea's violin.
723
00:34:43,390 --> 00:34:46,030
Thank you for keeping your
word and returning it.
724
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,150
Well, actually we brought
something more than that.
725
00:34:50,370 --> 00:34:51,650
Your husband told me that
726
00:34:51,660 --> 00:34:52,950
when he closed his eyes tonight,
727
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,410
he could hear Andrea playing.
728
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,920
And he was right.
729
00:34:56,930 --> 00:34:58,360
What are you talking about?
730
00:34:58,370 --> 00:35:00,450
Well, three years ago
Lindsay was suffering
731
00:35:00,460 --> 00:35:02,760
from congenital heart failure.
732
00:35:02,770 --> 00:35:05,100
Without a transplant,
she wasn't gonna live.
733
00:35:05,110 --> 00:35:08,610
Andrea's heart saved her life.
734
00:35:15,990 --> 00:35:19,890
The last thing we decided to
do was donate her organs.
735
00:35:19,930 --> 00:35:23,050
We never knew where they went.
736
00:35:24,570 --> 00:35:27,930
I heard your daughter was
an amazing violinist.
737
00:35:29,930 --> 00:35:32,160
- She was.
- When I was sick,
738
00:35:32,170 --> 00:35:33,570
I made a list of things
739
00:35:33,590 --> 00:35:36,050
I'd promise myself I'd do if I lived.
740
00:35:36,090 --> 00:35:38,800
One of them was learn how
to play an instrument.
741
00:35:38,810 --> 00:35:43,230
So my mom took me to a
secondhand music shop,
742
00:35:43,240 --> 00:35:46,710
and for some reason, the
violin spoke to me.
743
00:35:48,270 --> 00:35:49,870
Now I know why.
744
00:35:52,430 --> 00:35:54,310
I think she'd want you to have this.
745
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:10,870
Thank you.
746
00:36:15,130 --> 00:36:16,810
But this was meant for you.
747
00:36:19,470 --> 00:36:23,730
Somehow Andrea's violin
found its way back to
748
00:36:23,740 --> 00:36:25,050
her heart
749
00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:27,490
where it belongs.
750
00:36:34,890 --> 00:36:37,040
You said you don't know
how to move forward.
751
00:36:37,050 --> 00:36:39,730
Well, I think this is your way.
752
00:36:43,790 --> 00:36:46,660
I never did get to hear you play.
753
00:36:46,670 --> 00:36:48,490
Would you mind?
754
00:37:15,240 --> 00:37:17,290
I would first like to
thank the membership
755
00:37:17,300 --> 00:37:19,690
of St. Williams for having me.
756
00:37:19,770 --> 00:37:21,970
We've partnered in so many events
757
00:37:21,980 --> 00:37:24,880
over the years that it
feels like a second home.
758
00:37:27,490 --> 00:37:29,770
Thank you. Aw.
759
00:37:29,780 --> 00:37:31,510
Thank you so much for coming.
760
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:32,730
- Of course.
- Do you want to sit?
761
00:37:32,750 --> 00:37:33,930
No, no, no.
762
00:37:33,940 --> 00:37:35,680
You said it was important
for us to be here.
763
00:37:35,690 --> 00:37:37,710
We just... we don't know why.
764
00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:40,870
I have a feeling your father
could use your support today.
765
00:37:40,930 --> 00:37:42,430
Investing in our community,
766
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,870
making sure our children
have a safe place to learn,
767
00:37:44,890 --> 00:37:47,490
it's these core values that will ensure
768
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:50,090
our future remains bright.
769
00:37:50,100 --> 00:37:51,260
Hm?
770
00:37:53,020 --> 00:37:54,600
Please.
771
00:37:54,610 --> 00:37:56,270
Thank you, Reverend Finer.
772
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,780
As you speak about core
values, I'm curious to hear
773
00:37:58,790 --> 00:38:02,070
your position on the LGBTQIA's
role in the church.
774
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,210
Thank you for your question.
It's an important one.
775
00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:07,910
I think that everyone's relationship
776
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,390
with God is different, that
when we're searching...
777
00:38:14,190 --> 00:38:17,050
I'm sorry, um...
778
00:38:17,690 --> 00:38:20,190
The answer I was about to give
779
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:24,350
wasn't good enough for you or me.
780
00:38:26,330 --> 00:38:29,600
A few years ago, a parishioner of mine
781
00:38:29,610 --> 00:38:32,070
came to me to tell me
that they were gay.
782
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,130
They were not struggling
with their sexuality
783
00:38:34,140 --> 00:38:36,670
or the decision to come out.
784
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:42,350
They were struggling with
their place in the church.
785
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,480
How they would be accepted
by the community.
786
00:38:46,490 --> 00:38:48,290
By me.
787
00:38:49,470 --> 00:38:52,500
I was shook by this.
788
00:38:53,570 --> 00:38:58,310
Because that parishioner...
789
00:39:00,270 --> 00:39:01,970
was my daughter.
790
00:39:03,140 --> 00:39:06,730
Through our journey, she
showed me the true meaning
791
00:39:06,740 --> 00:39:10,540
of courage, strength,
792
00:39:10,550 --> 00:39:12,150
of acceptance.
793
00:39:12,170 --> 00:39:15,690
I saw love in this.
794
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,870
I saw God in this.
795
00:39:23,410 --> 00:39:27,170
The heart is capable of
extraordinary things.
796
00:39:27,190 --> 00:39:29,190
It gives us life,
797
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,390
makes us feel love,
798
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,100
and in some cases, can be passed on.
799
00:39:34,110 --> 00:39:36,470
It's memories kept alive.
800
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,580
Thank you, Miles.
801
00:39:38,590 --> 00:39:40,670
Teaching Lindsay has
really helped Karen.
802
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,810
I haven't seen my wife
smile in a very long time.
803
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,710
And of course the heart
is also full of mystery.
804
00:39:50,590 --> 00:39:52,870
It can remind you of who you are.
805
00:39:52,890 --> 00:39:56,520
What you said... it was beautiful.
806
00:39:56,530 --> 00:40:00,190
It wasn't what I expected to say.
807
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,960
But it was what I needed to say.
808
00:40:03,970 --> 00:40:05,600
Mm-hmm.
809
00:40:05,610 --> 00:40:07,500
I'm also guessing that it was your idea
810
00:40:07,510 --> 00:40:10,030
to bring in Ali and Miles.
811
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,640
I thought that you
could use the support.
812
00:40:12,650 --> 00:40:14,900
You know me so well.
813
00:40:14,910 --> 00:40:18,680
I also know that you should
always trust your heart
814
00:40:18,690 --> 00:40:20,800
because it will never steer you wrong.
815
00:40:20,810 --> 00:40:21,819
And you're right.
816
00:40:21,820 --> 00:40:24,680
I have been listening
817
00:40:24,690 --> 00:40:28,030
to my heart for some time now.
818
00:40:29,450 --> 00:40:31,930
And it's telling me that I love you.
819
00:40:33,070 --> 00:40:35,170
I love you too.
820
00:40:38,470 --> 00:40:41,460
Or tear you in two directions.
821
00:40:41,470 --> 00:40:43,320
What do you think? Is Simon Hayes behind
822
00:40:43,330 --> 00:40:45,230
- the God Account?
- I think so.
823
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:47,470
And I think he's going to reveal that
824
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,580
to the world next week at his gala.
825
00:40:49,590 --> 00:40:52,210
He offered me an exclusive if I hold off
826
00:40:52,220 --> 00:40:53,710
from publishing until afterward.
827
00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:56,170
Afterwards? It's no longer an exclusive.
828
00:40:57,250 --> 00:40:58,910
Do you have enough to start writing?
829
00:40:58,930 --> 00:41:00,680
Yeah?
830
00:41:00,690 --> 00:41:03,330
Then I want to publish
it before the gala.
831
00:41:05,550 --> 00:41:09,980
And, sure, along the
way the heart is bound
832
00:41:09,990 --> 00:41:12,550
to pick up scars,
833
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,650
painful reminders of the past.
834
00:41:15,670 --> 00:41:18,700
But if you trust it,
835
00:41:18,710 --> 00:41:20,730
follow it where it wants you to go,
836
00:41:20,740 --> 00:41:23,350
it will always lead you
in the right direction.
837
00:41:28,020 --> 00:41:29,630
- Hey.
- Hey, hey.
838
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,880
What's going on? You wanted to see me?
839
00:41:31,890 --> 00:41:33,950
Yeah.
840
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,890
There's just something I
wanted to talk to you about.
841
00:41:35,900 --> 00:41:38,760
Okay. So what's up?
842
00:41:41,370 --> 00:41:43,930
When we were here a couple of days ago,
843
00:41:43,940 --> 00:41:47,030
you asked me to reconsider
writing the story
844
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,150
- for my boss.
- Mm-hmm.
845
00:41:49,290 --> 00:41:51,530
I did.
846
00:41:51,540 --> 00:41:54,370
That's great. Okay, what's it about?
847
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,770
Simon Hayes.
848
00:42:00,450 --> 00:42:01,880
You mean the God Account?
849
00:42:01,890 --> 00:42:04,010
Yeah.
850
00:42:04,020 --> 00:42:06,850
But I... I came to you
851
00:42:06,860 --> 00:42:08,600
when FreeVerse told me that they wanted
852
00:42:08,610 --> 00:42:10,720
exclusive rights for the God Account.
853
00:42:10,730 --> 00:42:12,880
You looked me in my eyes and told me
854
00:42:12,890 --> 00:42:14,250
that it was not a problem,
that you weren't gonna
855
00:42:14,270 --> 00:42:15,870
- write an article about it.
- Yeah, I know.
856
00:42:15,890 --> 00:42:18,060
You stood right there
857
00:42:18,070 --> 00:42:19,490
and told me how proud you were,
858
00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:21,730
how great of an opportunity this is.
859
00:42:21,740 --> 00:42:23,030
You don't understand, okay?
860
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,200
Someone at "Catapult" was
going to write the article.
861
00:42:26,210 --> 00:42:30,670
- What was I supposed to say?
- You were supposed to say no.
862
00:42:32,130 --> 00:42:35,950
Cara, this is not your story to tell.
863
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,010
Miles...
864
00:42:38,020 --> 00:42:40,550
the God Account isn't just yours.
865
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,620
It's all of ours.
866
00:42:42,630 --> 00:42:44,390
But we had a deal.
867
00:42:46,330 --> 00:42:49,090
Well, I'm sorry.
868
00:42:49,100 --> 00:42:51,130
Things changed.
869
00:42:54,710 --> 00:42:57,340
Yeah, I guess they have.
870
00:43:10,070 --> 00:43:13,710
