1
00:00:03,214 --> 00:00:07,551
Mmm. First time I tried egusi,
I could barely stand the spice.
2
00:00:07,651 --> 00:00:10,187
Now look.
3
00:00:10,287 --> 00:00:11,988
That's allergies.
4
00:00:12,089 --> 00:00:13,757
Can I have some more pepper, please?
5
00:00:13,857 --> 00:00:14,991
Show off.
6
00:00:15,092 --> 00:00:16,460
You may have the pepper
7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,163
if you answer
the following history question.
8
00:00:19,263 --> 00:00:20,564
Don't tell me.
It's finals week.
9
00:00:20,664 --> 00:00:21,798
Best week of the year.
10
00:00:21,898 --> 00:00:23,467
What kind of kid looks forward
11
00:00:23,567 --> 00:00:24,868
to taking a bunch of tests?
12
00:00:24,968 --> 00:00:26,937
The genius
who fell out of my womb.
13
00:00:28,205 --> 00:00:30,040
Who fought
the Thirty Years' War?
14
00:00:30,141 --> 00:00:33,177
Catholics and Protestants
in Central Europe.
15
00:00:33,277 --> 00:00:35,112
Hold on, I am googling.
16
00:00:35,212 --> 00:00:37,781
Correct. Enjoy the pepper.
17
00:00:38,982 --> 00:00:40,351
You know,
I was talking to a client today,
18
00:00:40,451 --> 00:00:42,186
Southern Michigan man like me.
19
00:00:42,286 --> 00:00:43,654
Go Jackrabbits!
20
00:00:44,488 --> 00:00:46,056
Why is he screaming?
21
00:00:46,157 --> 00:00:47,057
It is something he does
22
00:00:47,158 --> 00:00:48,559
with the other alumni.
23
00:00:48,659 --> 00:00:50,461
I've seen it happen
in grocery stores.
24
00:00:50,561 --> 00:00:51,795
I can't wait for college.
25
00:00:51,895 --> 00:00:53,764
SMU was the best time
of my life.
26
00:00:53,864 --> 00:00:55,266
I should take you for a visit.
27
00:00:55,366 --> 00:00:56,533
It's only a couple hours.
28
00:00:56,633 --> 00:00:57,734
Why would you do that?
29
00:00:57,834 --> 00:00:59,236
Dele is going to Harvard.
30
00:00:59,336 --> 00:01:00,271
Yes.
Obviously.
31
00:01:00,371 --> 00:01:02,005
What an odd suggestion.
32
00:01:02,105 --> 00:01:04,975
So he can't even look
at other schools?
33
00:01:05,075 --> 00:01:05,942
No.
Why?
34
00:01:06,042 --> 00:01:08,011
What a ridiculous question.
35
00:01:08,111 --> 00:01:11,815
My counsellor did say we should
be touring a variety of schools.
36
00:01:13,049 --> 00:01:15,419
Which is not something
I need to do.
37
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:17,120
I'm not trying to steal him
from Harvard.
38
00:01:17,221 --> 00:01:18,489
It'd be a fun trip.
39
00:01:18,589 --> 00:01:19,956
We can hit the road,
40
00:01:20,056 --> 00:01:21,825
sing the fight song of
the mighty Jackrabbits.
41
00:01:21,925 --> 00:01:24,595
♪ We gotta hop, hop, hop
for Southern Michigan ♪
42
00:01:24,695 --> 00:01:25,696
♪ The great school where ♪
43
00:01:25,796 --> 00:01:27,398
♪ The Great Lakes begin! ♪
44
00:01:29,132 --> 00:01:31,602
I can see why people
might find that annoying,
45
00:01:31,702 --> 00:01:33,103
but I love it.
46
00:01:33,204 --> 00:01:35,906
Come on, it can be a reward
for acing his final.
47
00:01:36,006 --> 00:01:38,342
I do not give rewards
for something I expect.
48
00:01:38,442 --> 00:01:39,610
Abishola,
49
00:01:39,710 --> 00:01:41,011
sometimes you just have
50
00:01:41,111 --> 00:01:43,079
to let your husband have
a pointless adventure.
51
00:01:43,180 --> 00:01:45,982
Even if it is just
to shut him up.
52
00:01:46,082 --> 00:01:48,519
Okay, let's not
everybody help at once.
53
00:01:48,619 --> 00:01:50,187
Pass me that pepper.
54
00:02:17,748 --> 00:02:19,082
The old man in 402
55
00:02:19,182 --> 00:02:21,051
is annoyingly energetic today.
56
00:02:21,151 --> 00:02:22,553
He got a new pacemaker.
57
00:02:22,653 --> 00:02:25,589
Well, then somebody needs
to dial down the pace.
58
00:02:27,924 --> 00:02:29,360
Ugh.
59
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:30,727
You okay?
60
00:02:30,827 --> 00:02:34,197
Bob is sending me notable alumni
from his university.
61
00:02:34,298 --> 00:02:36,333
Oh. From speaking with him,
62
00:02:36,433 --> 00:02:38,902
I never got the impression
he went to college.
63
00:02:39,002 --> 00:02:42,072
Along with a local accident
attorney named Fender Ben.
64
00:02:42,172 --> 00:02:43,340
Uh-uh.
65
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,142
"Fender Ben,
your bent fender friend"?
66
00:02:46,243 --> 00:02:47,411
I love him.
67
00:02:47,511 --> 00:02:50,113
Bob insists that
Dele will benefit
68
00:02:50,213 --> 00:02:52,182
from seeing
his old stomping grounds.
69
00:02:52,283 --> 00:02:53,984
Wanting to share
precious memories
70
00:02:54,084 --> 00:02:55,486
with his loved ones.
71
00:02:55,586 --> 00:02:56,720
The nerve.
72
00:02:56,820 --> 00:02:58,021
What next?
73
00:02:58,121 --> 00:02:59,222
Is he going to take you
to the preschool
74
00:02:59,323 --> 00:03:01,024
where he was toilet-trained?
75
00:03:01,825 --> 00:03:03,226
You do realize
76
00:03:03,327 --> 00:03:05,929
those elite universities
don't take everyone, right?
77
00:03:06,830 --> 00:03:09,600
So, you believe Dele is
too stupid to get into Harvard?
78
00:03:09,700 --> 00:03:11,067
No, I'm just saying,
79
00:03:11,167 --> 00:03:13,270
there are a lot of Deles
out there competing to get in.
80
00:03:13,370 --> 00:03:15,806
But my Dele is the best Dele.
81
00:03:15,906 --> 00:03:19,610
It never hurts
to have a backup plan.
82
00:03:19,710 --> 00:03:22,546
Why do you continue
to call him an idiot?
83
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,248
Never mind.
84
00:03:26,116 --> 00:03:27,418
You know what?
85
00:03:27,518 --> 00:03:30,321
You should take him
to Bob's silly campus.
86
00:03:30,421 --> 00:03:31,588
Why would I do that?
87
00:03:31,688 --> 00:03:34,190
Threatening Dele
with a terrible education
88
00:03:34,291 --> 00:03:36,760
will shock him
into working harder.
89
00:03:36,860 --> 00:03:38,895
Oh, come on, now.
90
00:03:38,995 --> 00:03:40,764
The horrors of mediocrity
91
00:03:40,864 --> 00:03:44,067
will scare Dele
straight into the Ivy Leagues.
92
00:03:46,136 --> 00:03:48,339
Thank you, Kemi.
93
00:03:49,506 --> 00:03:53,344
And that is what supporting
a friend looks like.
94
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,049
Are we ready to begin?
Real quick.
95
00:03:59,149 --> 00:04:01,652
I'm gonna be gone for a bit,
'cause for the first time,
96
00:04:01,752 --> 00:04:03,687
I won an argument
in my marriage.
97
00:04:03,787 --> 00:04:05,055
Aw.
Oh.
98
00:04:05,155 --> 00:04:06,523
So, she threw you out?
99
00:04:06,623 --> 00:04:08,359
Abishola and I are
gonna take Dele
100
00:04:08,459 --> 00:04:10,827
on a little road trip
to visit my alma mater.
101
00:04:10,927 --> 00:04:13,397
Oh! I would love to return to
102
00:04:13,497 --> 00:04:16,833
the Universidade NOVA de Lisboa.
103
00:04:17,834 --> 00:04:19,603
I did not know
you studied abroad.
104
00:04:20,170 --> 00:04:21,304
She went to Portugal
for two weeks
105
00:04:21,405 --> 00:04:23,306
and spoke with an accent
for a year.
106
00:04:24,307 --> 00:04:25,876
The mornings.
107
00:04:25,976 --> 00:04:29,279
A cup of café
with my pastel de nata.
108
00:04:29,380 --> 00:04:31,047
In the evenings, we danced
109
00:04:31,147 --> 00:04:33,717
the fandango
alongside the Rio Tejo.
110
00:04:36,286 --> 00:04:37,754
Are you done?
111
00:04:37,854 --> 00:04:39,990
Prossiga.
112
00:04:40,791 --> 00:04:43,594
While I'm away, I've brought in
some reinforcements.
113
00:04:43,694 --> 00:04:44,861
Mom!
114
00:04:44,961 --> 00:04:47,130
Look who we smuggled in
from Malaysia.
115
00:04:47,230 --> 00:04:50,233
She is kidding.
I flew Delta.
116
00:04:51,001 --> 00:04:52,903
Let's all give Wati
a warm MaxDot welcome.
117
00:04:53,003 --> 00:04:54,971
Hey, so good to see you, Wati.
118
00:04:55,071 --> 00:04:56,507
I am so excited.
119
00:04:56,607 --> 00:04:58,975
Now, when I put "Made
in America" on my products,
120
00:04:59,075 --> 00:05:01,111
I will not be lying.
121
00:05:01,211 --> 00:05:02,613
Welcome, Mr. Zhao.
122
00:05:02,713 --> 00:05:04,180
It is good
to have someone
123
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:07,083
whose expertise
will compliment my own.
124
00:05:07,183 --> 00:05:08,485
Will this affect
the chain of command?
125
00:05:08,585 --> 00:05:10,120
Nope, you're still
at the bottom.
126
00:05:10,220 --> 00:05:11,388
Well, it's always nice
127
00:05:11,488 --> 00:05:13,990
to have diversity
in upper management.
128
00:05:14,090 --> 00:05:15,158
Thank you, Christina.
129
00:05:15,258 --> 00:05:17,694
So he is upper management?
130
00:05:17,794 --> 00:05:19,029
Guys, relax.
131
00:05:19,129 --> 00:05:20,831
Wati has always been
a part of this team.
132
00:05:20,931 --> 00:05:24,300
The company's growing,
so his role's growing, too.
133
00:05:24,401 --> 00:05:25,869
Hey, this is your first day
in America.
134
00:05:25,969 --> 00:05:27,103
I'll show you the town.
135
00:05:27,203 --> 00:05:28,872
Yeah, I want to
eat a chili dog
136
00:05:28,972 --> 00:05:30,306
and buy a gun.
137
00:05:30,407 --> 00:05:33,176
I know a place
where you can do both.
138
00:05:35,746 --> 00:05:40,517
Okay. What two countries did
Yugoslavia split into in 2003?
139
00:05:41,918 --> 00:05:43,219
Serbia and Montenegro.
140
00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:44,688
Correct.
141
00:05:44,788 --> 00:05:46,923
In 1989, what did
the Bennigan's
142
00:05:47,023 --> 00:05:50,193
near campus turn into?
143
00:05:50,293 --> 00:05:51,862
I do not think
he will get AP credits
144
00:05:51,962 --> 00:05:53,163
for the history of Bob.
145
00:05:53,263 --> 00:05:56,132
The answer is
Burger Palace.
146
00:05:56,232 --> 00:05:58,034
Best malt in Southern Michigan.
147
00:05:58,134 --> 00:06:00,971
You just said that about a diner
we passed 20 minutes ago.
148
00:06:01,071 --> 00:06:02,573
That was the best milkshake.
149
00:06:02,673 --> 00:06:05,542
Ah. The kid's a quick study.
150
00:06:05,642 --> 00:06:08,712
Well, here we are.
Welcome to the 'Zoo.
151
00:06:08,812 --> 00:06:11,748
That's what you call Kalamazoo
if you want to sound cool.
152
00:06:12,783 --> 00:06:14,485
Cool.
153
00:06:14,585 --> 00:06:16,487
Oh. There it is.
McConnell Hall.
154
00:06:16,587 --> 00:06:17,988
Freshman year dorm.
155
00:06:18,088 --> 00:06:20,891
Fun fact, built by a guy
who designed prisons.
156
00:06:21,658 --> 00:06:23,760
Do not worry, you're not going
to stay in the dorm.
157
00:06:23,860 --> 00:06:25,328
You will stay
with your second cousin.
158
00:06:25,428 --> 00:06:26,763
She only lives
an hour from Harvard.
159
00:06:26,863 --> 00:06:27,998
Come on.
160
00:06:28,098 --> 00:06:29,299
He's got to get
the full experience.
161
00:06:29,399 --> 00:06:30,967
Meeting kids
from all over,
162
00:06:31,067 --> 00:06:34,437
learning to sleep three feet
from a total stranger.
163
00:06:34,538 --> 00:06:36,940
And the stranger's girlfriend.
164
00:06:37,908 --> 00:06:39,275
It's only an hour, you said?
165
00:06:39,375 --> 00:06:42,813
He's gonna fall behind.
What do you mean?
166
00:06:42,913 --> 00:06:45,348
People on campus are
at school 24/7.
167
00:06:45,448 --> 00:06:47,484
You have access to study groups.
168
00:06:47,584 --> 00:06:49,385
It's easier to get to
the professor's office.
169
00:06:49,486 --> 00:06:51,054
It's like living
in a lecture hall.
170
00:06:51,154 --> 00:06:52,523
That's interesting.
171
00:06:52,623 --> 00:06:53,990
You're damn right it is.
172
00:06:54,090 --> 00:06:55,258
If I wasn't in the dorms,
173
00:06:55,358 --> 00:06:56,560
I would've never
made the dean's list.
174
00:06:56,660 --> 00:06:58,061
You made the dean's list?
175
00:06:58,161 --> 00:06:59,863
At Southern Michigan University.
176
00:06:59,963 --> 00:07:00,964
Go Jackrabbits!
177
00:07:06,036 --> 00:07:08,304
And there is
Mr. Wheeler's office,
178
00:07:08,404 --> 00:07:09,940
which you can enter freely,
179
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,976
thanks to the open-door
policy I suggested.
180
00:07:13,076 --> 00:07:14,978
I believe in closed doors.
181
00:07:15,078 --> 00:07:18,214
That is also a good policy.
182
00:07:18,314 --> 00:07:19,550
Hello!
183
00:07:19,650 --> 00:07:21,718
Welcome to our factory,
184
00:07:21,818 --> 00:07:23,286
my new friend.
185
00:07:24,254 --> 00:07:26,623
I have no idea who you are.
186
00:07:26,723 --> 00:07:31,094
Babatunde Olatunji.
MaxDot's senior consultant.
187
00:07:31,194 --> 00:07:32,563
That sounds made up.
188
00:07:32,663 --> 00:07:34,865
Well, Bob created the position
for me.
189
00:07:34,965 --> 00:07:36,332
So it is made up.
190
00:07:36,432 --> 00:07:37,768
No, it is real.
191
00:07:37,868 --> 00:07:40,403
He's a senior
and does a lot of consulting.
192
00:07:40,503 --> 00:07:43,707
I am also Bob's wife's uncle.
193
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:45,809
Which is not
necessarily relevant.
194
00:07:45,909 --> 00:07:50,046
Of course it is.
That is why I got the job.
195
00:07:50,146 --> 00:07:51,447
Shall we continue your tour?
196
00:07:51,548 --> 00:07:53,283
No, thank you,
I have seen enough.
197
00:07:57,420 --> 00:07:59,656
He seems nice.
198
00:08:05,161 --> 00:08:06,462
And this is the student union,
199
00:08:06,563 --> 00:08:08,699
home to WKMZ radio.
200
00:08:08,799 --> 00:08:10,634
I actually had
my own talk show.
201
00:08:10,734 --> 00:08:12,836
It's Bob Wheeler,
host of The Morning 'Zoo.
202
00:08:12,936 --> 00:08:14,470
How we feeling,
Jackrabbits?
203
00:08:14,571 --> 00:08:16,339
Let me guess.
It was a sports show.
204
00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:17,774
And current events.
205
00:08:17,874 --> 00:08:20,243
I broke the story
about the campus streaker.
206
00:08:20,343 --> 00:08:21,978
Were you the campus streaker?
207
00:08:22,078 --> 00:08:24,514
No, but I might have been the
guy who convinced him to do it.
208
00:08:25,081 --> 00:08:26,583
Is that whole building
for science?
209
00:08:26,683 --> 00:08:28,118
Yeah, and the one next to it.
210
00:08:28,218 --> 00:08:29,485
Spent a lot of time there.
211
00:08:29,586 --> 00:08:32,222
I thought you majored
in communications.
212
00:08:32,322 --> 00:08:33,824
With a minor
in meteorology.
213
00:08:33,924 --> 00:08:35,291
We got a storm front
pushing through.
214
00:08:35,391 --> 00:08:37,160
Bundle up, Jackrabbits.
215
00:08:37,260 --> 00:08:38,862
I was gonna use the voice
one way or another.
216
00:08:40,163 --> 00:08:42,098
I like that girl's hoodie.
217
00:08:42,198 --> 00:08:43,366
Hoodie, huh?
218
00:08:43,466 --> 00:08:45,301
Let's check out
the campus store.
219
00:08:45,401 --> 00:08:46,803
We'll get you some swag.
220
00:08:46,903 --> 00:08:49,072
You know, that car of yours
would look real good
221
00:08:49,172 --> 00:08:50,874
with an SMU bumper sticker.
222
00:08:50,974 --> 00:08:54,044
But then in traffic
people will assume he goes here.
223
00:08:54,144 --> 00:08:57,648
God forbid anybody think
he went to my crappy school.
224
00:08:57,748 --> 00:08:59,082
Exactly.
225
00:08:59,182 --> 00:09:00,717
I am glad you had
a great time here,
226
00:09:00,817 --> 00:09:02,686
but this place is
not right for Dele.
227
00:09:02,786 --> 00:09:04,921
What if Harvard isn't
right for him?
228
00:09:05,021 --> 00:09:06,389
Don't be ridiculous.
229
00:09:06,489 --> 00:09:07,824
Harvard is right for everyone
230
00:09:07,924 --> 00:09:09,559
that is good enough to get in.
231
00:09:09,660 --> 00:09:11,061
That's elitist, you know that?
232
00:09:11,161 --> 00:09:12,062
Yes.
233
00:09:12,162 --> 00:09:13,864
That's not a good thing.
234
00:09:13,964 --> 00:09:15,198
Only for those
who are not elite.
235
00:09:15,298 --> 00:09:16,733
Oh, my God.
236
00:09:19,169 --> 00:09:21,004
Seems to be
a bike-friendly campus.
237
00:09:21,104 --> 00:09:22,172
That's nice.
238
00:09:22,272 --> 00:09:23,506
Dele needs to go
to the best schools
239
00:09:23,606 --> 00:09:24,641
to be successful.
240
00:09:24,741 --> 00:09:26,176
I went here and look at me.
241
00:09:26,276 --> 00:09:28,712
I'm a seven-time Undergarment
Distributor of the Year.
242
00:09:28,812 --> 00:09:31,247
Dele does not have
the same advantages you had.
243
00:09:31,347 --> 00:09:32,448
Hey, I paid my own way
244
00:09:32,548 --> 00:09:34,617
and busted my ass
the whole time.
245
00:09:34,718 --> 00:09:36,119
Look at this bench.
246
00:09:36,219 --> 00:09:38,254
"A gift of the class of 1980."
247
00:09:38,354 --> 00:09:39,555
Very generous.
248
00:09:39,656 --> 00:09:40,623
He needs
to go to a school
249
00:09:40,724 --> 00:09:42,425
that will open doors for him.
250
00:09:42,525 --> 00:09:44,560
This school opened doors for me.
251
00:09:44,661 --> 00:09:45,962
Yes, to your family's company.
252
00:09:46,062 --> 00:09:47,964
And there it is.
Let's just forget it.
253
00:09:48,064 --> 00:09:50,100
Come on, let's go.
254
00:09:51,267 --> 00:09:54,705
Just so you know,
the Unabomber went to Harvard.
255
00:10:01,144 --> 00:10:02,112
Theta Phi Zeta step.
Zeta step.
256
00:10:04,748 --> 00:10:05,949
Ah.
257
00:10:06,049 --> 00:10:07,851
Theta Phi. Zeta.
258
00:10:13,957 --> 00:10:15,759
Theta Phi. Zeta.
259
00:10:17,260 --> 00:10:19,562
Yeah!
260
00:10:22,799 --> 00:10:24,067
Thank you. That was so cool.
261
00:10:24,167 --> 00:10:26,102
Yeah, you can't have him.
He's going to Harvard.
262
00:10:27,003 --> 00:10:29,439
We should look at some of
these student organizations.
263
00:10:29,539 --> 00:10:31,341
Eh, you don't have to humor me.
264
00:10:31,441 --> 00:10:32,642
I think it would be
good for Dele
265
00:10:32,743 --> 00:10:35,045
to see some of the study
clubs he could join.
266
00:10:35,145 --> 00:10:37,347
I could join study clubs?
Awesome!
267
00:10:37,447 --> 00:10:39,549
Man, she did
a number on you.
268
00:10:39,649 --> 00:10:41,051
Hey, look at this.
269
00:10:41,151 --> 00:10:43,453
The Pan African
Students Association.
270
00:10:43,553 --> 00:10:45,756
"Open to any and all students
interested in issues
271
00:10:45,856 --> 00:10:48,992
that involve and affect
the African diaspora."
272
00:10:49,092 --> 00:10:50,493
An important club like that
273
00:10:50,593 --> 00:10:52,695
at an academic
cesspool like this?
274
00:10:52,796 --> 00:10:54,497
What are the chances?
275
00:10:55,565 --> 00:10:57,600
They have an engineering club.
276
00:10:57,700 --> 00:10:59,169
Oh, why don't you
check it out?
277
00:10:59,269 --> 00:11:00,470
See what they did wrong
to end up here.
278
00:11:00,570 --> 00:11:01,772
I'm gonna take Dele
to the library.
279
00:11:01,872 --> 00:11:04,174
Good idea.
280
00:11:05,208 --> 00:11:06,943
I think it's that way.
281
00:11:07,043 --> 00:11:08,244
College 101, kid.
282
00:11:08,344 --> 00:11:09,813
No matter where you are,
always tell your mom
283
00:11:09,913 --> 00:11:11,181
you were at the library.
284
00:11:11,281 --> 00:11:13,483
That's high school 101,
but okay.
285
00:11:16,820 --> 00:11:18,855
Goodwin.
Hello, Kofo.
286
00:11:18,955 --> 00:11:20,456
There is a shark among us.
287
00:11:20,556 --> 00:11:22,092
We need to form an alliance.
288
00:11:22,192 --> 00:11:23,426
I have made it very clear
289
00:11:23,526 --> 00:11:26,362
that my policy is:
"Every man for himself."
290
00:11:27,330 --> 00:11:28,464
Wati has it out for Uncle Tunde.
291
00:11:28,564 --> 00:11:31,001
I think his job is in trouble.
292
00:11:31,101 --> 00:11:32,402
Oh, no.
293
00:11:32,502 --> 00:11:34,170
What does Tunde do again?
294
00:11:35,238 --> 00:11:36,706
Tale as old as time,
you know?
295
00:11:36,807 --> 00:11:40,210
New guard comes in,
starts trimming the fat.
296
00:11:40,310 --> 00:11:41,611
I've seen it
everywhere I've worked.
297
00:11:41,711 --> 00:11:44,214
You've only ever had one job
besides here.
298
00:11:44,314 --> 00:11:46,082
Well, now I've seen it
both places.
299
00:11:46,182 --> 00:11:47,984
Wati is not our enemy.
300
00:11:48,084 --> 00:11:49,319
He is a resource.
301
00:11:49,419 --> 00:11:51,754
A rising tide
lifts all boats.
302
00:11:51,855 --> 00:11:54,624
You know, as someone who's
almost drowned in a wave pool,
303
00:11:54,724 --> 00:11:57,060
I am offended
by that saying.
304
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,662
What do we do?
Is he going to fire everyone?
305
00:11:59,762 --> 00:12:02,899
Well, not everyone.
306
00:12:02,999 --> 00:12:04,968
Wheeler. Wheeler.
307
00:12:05,068 --> 00:12:06,469
It's not fair that
308
00:12:06,569 --> 00:12:09,405
the people who've worked
so hard for so many years
309
00:12:09,505 --> 00:12:11,174
are the ones on
the chopping block.
310
00:12:11,274 --> 00:12:13,977
I wish we could be chopped,
but again...
311
00:12:14,077 --> 00:12:15,812
Wheeler.
Wheeler.
312
00:12:17,780 --> 00:12:20,083
That means the meeting
is starting.
313
00:12:20,183 --> 00:12:22,052
Two whistles means
we are done.
314
00:12:22,152 --> 00:12:25,822
I need to get a whistle.
Let's begin.
315
00:12:45,375 --> 00:12:46,376
What do you think?
316
00:12:46,476 --> 00:12:48,378
I'm in greasy heaven.
317
00:12:48,478 --> 00:12:50,546
It's soggier than I remember,
318
00:12:50,646 --> 00:12:52,182
but those memories
are a little hazy,
319
00:12:52,282 --> 00:12:54,450
if you know what I mean.
I do.
320
00:12:54,550 --> 00:12:55,785
Well, you shouldn't!
321
00:12:57,921 --> 00:13:00,190
I'm telling you, you're gonna be
a star in college.
322
00:13:00,290 --> 00:13:01,257
I hope so.
323
00:13:01,357 --> 00:13:02,325
I know so.
324
00:13:02,425 --> 00:13:03,659
You're smart, funny.
325
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:05,195
People are gonna be lining up
to sit with you
326
00:13:05,295 --> 00:13:07,230
at one of these sticky tables.
327
00:13:07,330 --> 00:13:09,032
Were they like this
when you were here?
328
00:13:09,132 --> 00:13:11,534
Again, I don't quite remember.
329
00:13:12,936 --> 00:13:14,504
A lot of change coming.
330
00:13:14,604 --> 00:13:16,339
Yeah.
331
00:13:16,439 --> 00:13:19,542
You know what makes a hard thing
impossible?
332
00:13:19,642 --> 00:13:22,545
Not really wanting to do it
in the first place.
333
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:24,881
Can I ask you something?
334
00:13:24,981 --> 00:13:26,782
Sure.
335
00:13:27,583 --> 00:13:29,352
Do you actually want to go
to Harvard?
336
00:13:29,452 --> 00:13:31,787
Uh, yeah, it's Harvard.
337
00:13:31,888 --> 00:13:33,089
All right,
I'm just checking,
338
00:13:33,189 --> 00:13:34,891
'cause it's your decision.
339
00:13:34,991 --> 00:13:37,127
College is where you're gonna
meet lifelong friends
340
00:13:37,227 --> 00:13:38,661
and make incredible memories,
341
00:13:38,761 --> 00:13:41,564
and I want you to be
as happy there as I was here.
342
00:13:41,664 --> 00:13:42,999
Thanks.
343
00:13:43,099 --> 00:13:46,602
I know you'll make the right
choices wherever you go.
344
00:13:47,037 --> 00:13:48,671
Which will be Harvard.
345
00:13:50,140 --> 00:13:51,574
Can I ask you something?
346
00:13:51,674 --> 00:13:53,176
You can always talk to me.
347
00:13:53,276 --> 00:13:56,012
Do you think this ID looks
real enough to get me into bars?
348
00:13:56,112 --> 00:13:57,580
Whoa.
349
00:13:57,680 --> 00:13:59,515
I thought we'd start with
"what are the best flip-flops
350
00:13:59,615 --> 00:14:01,551
to wear in the shower?"
351
00:14:01,651 --> 00:14:03,119
So...
352
00:14:03,219 --> 00:14:04,820
"Antonio."
353
00:14:04,921 --> 00:14:06,189
What's your birthday?
354
00:14:06,289 --> 00:14:08,224
July 6, 2004.
355
00:14:08,324 --> 00:14:09,725
You know that only
makes you 19, right?
356
00:14:09,825 --> 00:14:11,861
I don't plan to use it
until I'm in college.
357
00:14:11,962 --> 00:14:13,529
God bless you,
358
00:14:13,629 --> 00:14:15,865
you even break the law
like a nerd.
359
00:14:16,699 --> 00:14:17,833
No, rookie mistake here.
360
00:14:17,934 --> 00:14:19,269
You made the address
too complicated.
361
00:14:19,369 --> 00:14:20,536
You're never gonna
remember this.
362
00:14:20,636 --> 00:14:24,040
57344 Greenwind, Apartment 304.
363
00:14:24,140 --> 00:14:26,809
Grand Rapids, Michigan, 49502.
364
00:14:26,909 --> 00:14:29,012
This says Lansing.
No, it doesn't.
365
00:14:29,112 --> 00:14:31,547
You're good.
366
00:14:32,448 --> 00:14:34,250
Well, nice knowing you, Antonio. Hey.
367
00:14:34,350 --> 00:14:35,351
I thought you were cool.
368
00:14:35,451 --> 00:14:38,554
Me, too, bud. Me, too.
369
00:14:39,655 --> 00:14:42,558
Condoms! Condoms!
370
00:14:42,658 --> 00:14:44,794
Take a pamphlet,
get a free condom.
371
00:14:44,894 --> 00:14:48,331
So this school encourages
sexual debauchery.
372
00:14:48,431 --> 00:14:50,400
Safe sexual debauchery.
373
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:52,202
You are an authority figure.
374
00:14:52,302 --> 00:14:54,737
You should be setting a better
example for your students.
375
00:14:54,837 --> 00:14:57,640
Actually, I'm a freshman.
Is it the glasses?
376
00:14:57,740 --> 00:15:00,343
No, you just look old.
377
00:15:01,811 --> 00:15:03,079
I'm Wendy.
378
00:15:03,179 --> 00:15:05,115
Abishola.
379
00:15:05,215 --> 00:15:07,783
I dropped out years ago
when the kids came along.
380
00:15:07,883 --> 00:15:10,720
Now is my chance to finally
go after my dream.
381
00:15:10,820 --> 00:15:12,622
Hmm.
382
00:15:12,722 --> 00:15:15,425
I recently decided
to become a doctor.
383
00:15:16,126 --> 00:15:17,493
I am going to Johns Hopkins.
384
00:15:17,593 --> 00:15:20,163
Well, ain't you fancy?
385
00:15:20,263 --> 00:15:22,465
Yes. I am.
386
00:15:22,565 --> 00:15:25,035
I can't imagine doing that
at our age.
387
00:15:25,135 --> 00:15:26,736
You are doing it.
388
00:15:26,836 --> 00:15:29,272
Here, where I've got
a scholarship and childcare
389
00:15:29,372 --> 00:15:30,740
to help with my youngest.
390
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,342
At a cutthroat school
like Johns Hopkins,
391
00:15:32,442 --> 00:15:35,011
I'd pretty much be on my own.
392
00:15:35,111 --> 00:15:39,649
Adversity creates pressure,
and pressure makes diamonds.
393
00:15:39,749 --> 00:15:41,484
I don't need my soul crushed,
394
00:15:41,584 --> 00:15:43,619
but if it works for you,
that's great.
395
00:15:43,719 --> 00:15:44,887
It does.
396
00:15:44,987 --> 00:15:46,556
Can you take a pamphlet?
397
00:15:46,656 --> 00:15:49,925
I get an extra point in biochem
if I pawn off the whole stack.
398
00:15:50,026 --> 00:15:54,597
If you want a better grade,
you should study more.
399
00:16:02,872 --> 00:16:05,675
Sure you don't want a condom?
400
00:16:06,842 --> 00:16:08,544
Well, once again
I'm leaving
401
00:16:08,644 --> 00:16:11,381
without a degree,
but this was fun.
402
00:16:12,415 --> 00:16:13,783
I really enjoyed the library.
403
00:16:15,385 --> 00:16:16,952
It smells like
you were researching
404
00:16:17,053 --> 00:16:18,088
in the pepperoni section.
405
00:16:18,188 --> 00:16:19,789
It was Bob's idea!
406
00:16:19,889 --> 00:16:21,091
If you want to get
invited to parties,
407
00:16:21,191 --> 00:16:23,326
we got to work on
that, right there.
408
00:16:23,426 --> 00:16:25,261
I am glad
you two enjoyed the day.
409
00:16:25,361 --> 00:16:26,629
What about you?
410
00:16:26,729 --> 00:16:28,431
Did have fun
picking apart my alma mater?
411
00:16:28,531 --> 00:16:31,201
Hmm. It's actually
a lovely institution.
412
00:16:31,301 --> 00:16:32,302
For idiots.
413
00:16:32,402 --> 00:16:34,003
No, really.
414
00:16:34,104 --> 00:16:36,139
So, you could see Dele here?
415
00:16:36,239 --> 00:16:37,640
Of course not.
416
00:16:38,474 --> 00:16:40,876
But I could possibly go
to a place like this.
417
00:16:40,976 --> 00:16:44,780
If Johns Hopkins and
all the Ivy Leagues burned down.
418
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,217
I knew the campus
would win you over.
419
00:16:47,317 --> 00:16:49,585
Was it the quad?
It was the quad.
420
00:16:49,685 --> 00:16:52,788
I had a nice conversation
with a 40-year-old freshman.
421
00:16:52,888 --> 00:16:54,257
And this is why we say:
422
00:16:54,357 --> 00:16:55,591
"Go Jackrabbits!"
423
00:16:57,893 --> 00:17:00,796
I hope this trip made you feel
more prepared for college.
424
00:17:00,896 --> 00:17:03,566
Definitely.
If a place like this seems cool,
425
00:17:03,666 --> 00:17:04,834
imagine what it's like
426
00:17:04,934 --> 00:17:06,202
at a school
that's actually good.
427
00:17:06,302 --> 00:17:07,570
Mm-hmm.
428
00:17:08,371 --> 00:17:11,107
Et tu, Antonio?
429
00:17:19,949 --> 00:17:21,284
Hello, Goodwin.
430
00:17:21,384 --> 00:17:24,086
You will address me
as President Olayiwola.
431
00:17:24,187 --> 00:17:26,656
I will stick with Goodwin.
432
00:17:26,756 --> 00:17:29,425
Just so you know,
I run the meetings,
433
00:17:29,525 --> 00:17:31,727
and I sit
at the end of the table.
434
00:17:32,862 --> 00:17:34,564
And when lunch
is brought in,
435
00:17:34,664 --> 00:17:37,200
I get my sandwich first.
436
00:17:37,300 --> 00:17:39,802
I am not here
to step on your toes.
437
00:17:39,902 --> 00:17:43,539
Bob has told me
many wonderful things about you.
438
00:17:43,639 --> 00:17:45,040
I see.
439
00:17:45,141 --> 00:17:47,443
You do not let feelings
cloud your decision-making.
440
00:17:47,543 --> 00:17:49,345
That is true.
I have heard
441
00:17:49,445 --> 00:17:50,846
inspiring stories about
442
00:17:50,946 --> 00:17:53,783
how you push the workers
to the brink of exhaustion.
443
00:17:53,883 --> 00:17:55,551
You're too kind.
444
00:17:55,651 --> 00:17:59,155
We Nigerians are not soft
when it comes to business.
445
00:17:59,255 --> 00:18:00,890
That is how it should be.
446
00:18:00,990 --> 00:18:02,057
It is...
447
00:18:02,158 --> 00:18:04,026
...all about the work.
448
00:18:05,895 --> 00:18:10,032
I'm sure you agree
this place must be streamlined.
449
00:18:10,132 --> 00:18:11,434
I have told Mr. Wheeler this.
450
00:18:11,534 --> 00:18:13,436
Decisive action must be taken.
451
00:18:13,536 --> 00:18:15,137
It is like you are
reading my mind.
452
00:18:15,238 --> 00:18:17,640
We must cut
the dead weight.
453
00:18:17,740 --> 00:18:19,375
I see.
454
00:18:20,376 --> 00:18:22,212
Oh, let me know
if you need anything!
455
00:18:22,312 --> 00:18:24,547
My day is wide open!
456
00:18:24,647 --> 00:18:26,582
Captioning sponsored by CBS
457
00:18:26,682 --> 00:18:28,318
and TOYOTA.
458
