The East Orange community
is still reeling
186
00:09:41,542 --> 00:09:43,936
from the murders
of two sisters,
Charlene and Estella Moore,
187
00:09:44,110 --> 00:09:46,155
at their apartment
in the early hours
of Sunday morning.

189
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,555
DeShaun, get the phone!
190
00:09:55,861 --> 00:09:56,949
I got it.

Daddy,
your bathwater is ready.

00:09:59,299 --> 00:10:00,387
Be polite.

Hello. Peace residence.

You know I didn'’t do this, right?

You know
I didn'’t kill those girls?

- You didn'’t kill those girls.

That'’s right,
and it'’s gonna be okay.

They'’re not even getting me
a lawyer right now.
205
00:10:34,334 --> 00:10:36,423
They'’re saying this whole thing
could take years.
206
00:10:39,382 --> 00:10:42,124
[official] I have been
informed that the jury
has reached a verdict
207
00:10:42,298 --> 00:10:44,823
in the matter
of the State v.
Robert E. Douglas.
208
00:10:44,997 --> 00:10:46,825
If it pleases the court,
209
00:10:46,999 --> 00:10:49,349
the verdict should be read
into the record.
210
00:10:54,310 --> 00:10:58,140
The jury finds the defendant,
Robert E. Douglas, guilty...

[judge] Mr. Douglas,
214
00:11:06,540 --> 00:11:09,282
do you have anything to say
at this time before sentencing?
215
00:11:11,676 --> 00:11:13,590
I did not commit this crime.
216
00:11:15,592 --> 00:11:17,899
I don'’t even know
why I'’m accused of this.

she could identify my voice

from an argument
happening down the hall.
220
00:11:26,168 --> 00:11:28,649
First time
I ever laid eyes on her
was the day before.
221
00:11:28,823 --> 00:11:31,652
She was so drunk, she couldn'’t
have told you whether
it was Hanukkah or Halloween.
222
00:11:31,826 --> 00:11:34,220
Mr. Douglas,
I know that you'’ve
maintained your innocence
223
00:11:34,394 --> 00:11:35,743
throughout this trial.
224
00:11:35,917 --> 00:11:39,616
And I have to tell you
that I'’m struggling.
225
00:11:39,791 --> 00:11:43,708
I mean, I'’m sitting here
with this verdict, and I...
226
00:11:44,709 --> 00:11:46,275
just don'’t know.
227
00:11:46,449 --> 00:11:48,495
Your Honor,
I got a ten-year-old son...
228
00:11:51,324 --> 00:11:54,327
who'’s been coming to the jail
with his... with his mother
229
00:11:54,501 --> 00:11:56,982
every week for years now.
230
00:12:00,768 --> 00:12:02,378
My son'’s a beautiful child.
231
00:12:04,641 --> 00:12:06,382
He'’s a brilliant child.
232
00:12:07,819 --> 00:12:09,081
A brilliant child.
233
00:12:12,258 --> 00:12:13,955
I thank God every day.
234
00:12:23,530 --> 00:12:26,098
[Rob] And from then on, I knew
235
00:12:26,272 --> 00:12:29,754
I would need to control
the chaos of life.
236
00:12:30,537 --> 00:12:32,626

[Jackie'’s father]
He just never stood a chance.
239
00:12:41,853 --> 00:12:43,985
Once them police
get the lock on you...
240
00:12:46,771 --> 00:12:49,034
At least they gave him life,
241
00:12:49,208 --> 00:12:50,775
not the death penalty.
242
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,042
[Jackie] I'’m gonna put Shaun
in private school.
243
00:12:58,391 --> 00:12:59,653
He'’ll be okay in elementary,
244
00:12:59,827 --> 00:13:01,394
but after that,
he'’s going to private.
245
00:13:01,568 --> 00:13:04,484
- How?
- I got three years
to figure it out.
246
00:13:04,658 --> 00:13:06,312
He ain'’t staying
in these schools around here.
247
00:13:06,486 --> 00:13:08,096
If they only see him
as the son of a convict,
248
00:13:08,270 --> 00:13:10,490
that'’s the only way
he will see himself.
249
00:13:30,249 --> 00:13:33,295
He didn'’t do it.
How are we gonna get him out?
250
00:13:33,469 --> 00:13:36,777
The best thing
you could do for Skeet
is to keep being brilliant.
251
00:13:36,951 --> 00:13:39,084
It'’s the best thing
you could do for me too.
252

You know, in this neighborhood,
everybody knows you as "Shaun."
255
00:13:53,533 --> 00:13:56,666
But everybody who knows Shaun
knows about those women
256
00:13:56,841 --> 00:13:59,104
and about your daddy
and what they say he done.
257
00:14:00,714 --> 00:14:04,239
So out there in the world,
you use your first name,
Robert.
258
00:14:05,284 --> 00:14:07,721
It'’ll keep your daddy
in your heart,
259

if you want him there.
260
00:14:11,638 --> 00:14:13,858

with Skeet Douglas.

can encourage?

you will come to understand
these words deeply.

Your mother said no
'’cause I was shifting
a little weed.
514
00:27:37,704 --> 00:27:40,272
So I took that apartment
on Chestnut with Carl.
515
00:27:40,446 --> 00:27:42,840
Rented the house out
to them fools
that never paid me a dime.
516
00:27:43,014 --> 00:27:44,755
Ended up
setting the place on fire.
517
00:27:46,278 --> 00:27:48,019
In the end,
Michael Tucker was the only one
518
00:27:48,193 --> 00:27:51,239
who'’d pay all the back taxes
and buy it off me.
519
00:27:51,413 --> 00:27:52,588
For a dollar.
520
00:27:57,071 --> 00:27:59,073
Don'’t get me wrong.
I'’m not blaming your mother.
521
00:28:01,162 --> 00:28:03,948
I just don'’t believe
you can ever be facing
the wrong direction
522
00:28:04,122 --> 00:28:05,906
if you'’re standing
by your people.
523
00:28:08,039 --> 00:28:09,344
Ever.
524
00:28:12,783 --> 00:28:14,523
I'’ll patent that.
525
00:28:18,179 --> 00:28:19,528
[chuckles]
526
00:28:21,313 --> 00:28:22,749
[chuckles]
527
00:28:25,404 --> 00:28:27,188
Yeah, patent that shit.
528
00:28:31,062 --> 00:28:32,324
Patent that shit.
529
00:28:38,939 --> 00:28:39,766
[sighs]
530
00:28:48,862 --> 00:28:51,996
[sighs] I'’ll bring the car back
in a few weeks, all right?
531
00:28:52,170 --> 00:28:53,737
- Take your time.
- Yes, sir.
532
00:28:53,911 --> 00:28:55,739
Make sure
you enjoy yourself up there.
533
00:28:55,913 --> 00:28:56,870
Thank you.
534
00:28:57,044 --> 00:28:58,393
[Frances, Rob chuckle]
535
00:28:59,351 --> 00:29:00,744
[Rob] All right, y'’all.
536
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:11,363
Now, you know
you don'’t have to change, Shaun.
537
00:29:11,537 --> 00:29:13,713
We love you
just the way you are.
538
00:29:13,887 --> 00:29:15,323
If you come back here
a white man,
539
00:29:15,497 --> 00:29:17,543
I ain'’t letting you
in the house.[all laugh]
540
00:29:19,980 --> 00:29:21,199
Take care of yourself, Son.
541
00:29:21,373 --> 00:29:22,896
Mm-hmm. Yes, ma'’am.
542
00:29:23,070 --> 00:29:24,811
- I love you.
- I love you.
543
00:29:26,073 --> 00:29:27,074
All right.
544
00:29:37,128 --> 00:29:38,694
[engine starts]
545
00:29:43,438 --> 00:29:46,528
[Rob] My passion began
to carry me away from home
546
00:29:47,834 --> 00:29:50,750
with a worry that I was leaving
a part of myself behind.
547
00:30:00,064 --> 00:30:02,544
At Yale,
I would learn how any organism,
548
00:30:02,718 --> 00:30:04,764
finding itself
in unfamiliar surroundings,
549
00:30:04,938 --> 00:30:09,856
relies on one key
biological mechanism to thrive:
550
00:30:11,379 --> 00:30:12,728
evolution.
551
00:30:12,903 --> 00:30:15,644
Chloroplasts
from the second endosymbiosis
552
00:30:15,819 --> 00:30:18,256
have their own genome
and ribosomes,
553
00:30:18,430 --> 00:30:22,260
and, as a result, we have
double-membrane organelles.
554
00:30:23,478 --> 00:30:26,351
Ultimately,
what we'’re looking at
on this board
555
00:30:26,525 --> 00:30:31,443
are probably
the most important events
in all of evolutionary history.
556
00:30:32,879 --> 00:30:36,013
Okay, let'’s turn to page 177.
557
00:30:36,883 --> 00:30:38,493
Let'’s dig into this.
558
00:30:38,667 --> 00:30:40,887
Wow. That was intense.
559
00:30:41,061 --> 00:30:42,236
[both chuckle]
560
00:30:43,672 --> 00:30:45,065
Why are you taking
Intro Biology
561
00:30:45,239 --> 00:30:47,763
if you really wanna be
an English major, man?
562
00:30:47,938 --> 00:30:50,070
Uh, to keep my parents
off my back, mostly.
563
00:30:50,244 --> 00:30:53,857
They'’re not that excited
about me being a writer.
564
00:30:54,031 --> 00:30:55,206
But, you know,
565
00:30:56,729 --> 00:30:58,165
writing is
a holistic experience.
566
00:30:58,339 --> 00:31:00,689
You gotta know all of it.
567
00:31:00,864 --> 00:31:02,213
I wanna write about
the human heart.
568
00:31:02,387 --> 00:31:04,389
How do you do that
if you don'’t take biology?
569
00:31:04,563 --> 00:31:06,652
You sound like
you gonna be all right, man.[chuckles]
570
00:31:06,826 --> 00:31:08,741
What are you thinking about
as a major?
571
00:31:08,915 --> 00:31:10,351
I'’m looking at MB&B.
572
00:31:11,962 --> 00:31:14,138
Molecular biophysics
and biochemistry?
573
00:31:14,312 --> 00:31:16,792
Isn'’t that, like,
the hardest course here?
574
00:31:16,967 --> 00:31:18,794
Like, literally
the hardest course at Yale?
575
00:31:18,969 --> 00:31:21,319
Maybe the physical chemistry
part, but...
576
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,974
Uh-huh.
577
00:31:24,148 --> 00:31:26,193
- And that doesn'’t worry you?
- Nah. I mean, it'’s science.
578
00:31:26,367 --> 00:31:28,892
Most of the time,
things work out
the way they supposed to.
579
00:31:29,066 --> 00:31:32,547
Make it easier
than anything else.
Think about it.
580
00:31:33,418 --> 00:31:34,506
[chuckles]
581
00:31:35,986 --> 00:31:37,596
[ringing]
582
00:31:41,034 --> 00:31:43,950
[Rob] Jeff! Hang on, Jeff.
Hold on. No, it'’s all right.
583
00:31:44,124 --> 00:31:46,387
- No, it'’s okay.
- I got it. I got it.
I got it.
584
00:31:48,476 --> 00:31:51,175
Yeah. It'’s for me.[person on phone]
...correctional facility?
585
00:31:53,090 --> 00:31:54,613
[door closes]
586
00:31:55,353 --> 00:31:56,963
Hey, hey, Dad.
587
00:31:57,137 --> 00:31:58,443
[Skeet] Hey, Son.
588
00:32:00,227 --> 00:32:01,925
You settling in okay?
589
00:32:02,099 --> 00:32:05,929
Yeah. You know,
it'’s, uh, classes,
water polo practice.
590
00:32:06,103 --> 00:32:07,539
I'’m working in the kitchen
like Ma.
591
00:32:07,713 --> 00:32:08,757
[chuckles]
592
00:32:09,671 --> 00:32:10,759
Sounds good.
593
00:32:11,456 --> 00:32:12,457
[chuckles]
594
00:32:14,372 --> 00:32:16,374
Get that court date yet?
595
00:32:16,548 --> 00:32:19,159
Nah. I'’ve been talking
to somebody over there
almost every day though.
596
00:32:19,333 --> 00:32:21,248
We'’ll find out soon enough.
597
00:32:21,422 --> 00:32:22,380
Uh-huh.
598
00:32:22,554 --> 00:32:23,772
You know, you, uh--
599
00:32:23,947 --> 00:32:26,079
You ain'’t gotta call me here.
I, uh--
600
00:32:26,253 --> 00:32:28,473
I can-- I can reach out to you
when I hear something from '’em,
601
00:32:28,647 --> 00:32:30,301
or I can just come see you,
you know?
602
00:32:30,475 --> 00:32:32,520
- Why'’s that?
- There'’s another guy in the dorm.
603
00:32:32,694 --> 00:32:34,696
I don'’t want everybody
in my business.
That'’s all.
604
00:32:35,523 --> 00:32:36,568
No problem.
605
00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:40,528
You can call me anytime, Shaun.
You know where I am.
606
00:32:42,269 --> 00:32:43,705
[buzzer sounds]
607
00:32:55,326 --> 00:32:56,762

Nice work, man.

[beeps][gate unlocks]
615
00:34:31,987 --> 00:34:34,381
Yo! Yo! You mind
holding the door for me?
616
00:34:36,166 --> 00:34:37,906
Uh, you got a pass?
617
00:34:38,081 --> 00:34:39,212
Yeah. It'’s in my bag.
618
00:34:39,386 --> 00:34:42,302
No, he'’s okay. He'’s okay.
619
00:34:44,087 --> 00:34:47,002
You must be
- the brother from Newark.
- Yeah, Rob. What the fuck?
620
00:34:47,177 --> 00:34:49,353
Sherman. I was the brother
from Newark last year.
621
00:34:49,527 --> 00:34:50,658
This is Oswaldo.
622
00:34:50,832 --> 00:34:52,530
You gonna walk around Yale
being Black,
623
00:34:52,704 --> 00:34:53,835
you gotta keep
that ID handy.
624
00:34:54,009 --> 00:34:55,968
Damn! It'’s like that?
625
00:34:56,142 --> 00:34:58,013
[Sherman]
Don'’t worry. You'’ll, uh--
You'’ll get used to it.
626
00:34:58,188 --> 00:35:00,277
- You smoke?
- Don'’t everybody?
627
00:35:00,451 --> 00:35:01,191
[Oswaldo] Right?
628
00:35:01,365 --> 00:35:02,279
Are you serious?
629
00:35:02,453 --> 00:35:03,889
Well, I'’m just saying
630
00:35:04,063 --> 00:35:06,065
incremental change
isn'’t necessarily a bad thing.
631
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:07,849
It'’s how most things get done.
632
00:35:08,023 --> 00:35:10,156
Why not apply that
to race relations
at Ivy Leagues?
633
00:35:10,330 --> 00:35:13,203
Amen. It isn'’t always
about revolution.
It'’s about education.
634
00:35:13,377 --> 00:35:14,943
Isn'’t that why we'’re here?
635
00:35:15,118 --> 00:35:17,816
Problem is,
most white people
are addicted to status.
636
00:35:17,990 --> 00:35:19,731
It'’s their drug of choice.
637
00:35:19,905 --> 00:35:21,907
So a lot of these
racist motherfuckers are just...
638
00:35:22,951 --> 00:35:23,691
high.
639
00:35:23,865 --> 00:35:25,519
[all laugh]
640
00:35:25,693 --> 00:35:27,913
[Sherman] I hear that, Naya.
What about you, Rob?
641
00:35:28,087 --> 00:35:31,525
You'’re fresh off the boat.
You think we need to rise up
against the man over here?
642
00:35:31,699 --> 00:35:33,701
You wanna know the truth?
You want me to be honest?
643
00:35:33,875 --> 00:35:35,138
Yeah.
644
00:35:35,312 --> 00:35:36,922
I-- Look, I honestly
don'’t give a fuck.
645
00:35:37,879 --> 00:35:38,837
I don'’t give a fuck.
646
00:35:39,577 --> 00:35:40,708
About racism?
647
00:35:40,882 --> 00:35:42,319
Here? Mm-mmm.
648
00:35:42,493 --> 00:35:44,147
Well, that'’s crazy.
[laughs]
649
00:35:44,321 --> 00:35:47,541
Nah. Look. No, look,
if some white boy
took the wrong turn
650
00:35:47,715 --> 00:35:49,456
and ended up
in my neighborhood,
651
00:35:49,630 --> 00:35:51,371
I promise you
his only thought gonna be
652
00:35:51,545 --> 00:35:54,069
how the fuck is he gonna
get back amongst his own people
653
00:35:54,244 --> 00:35:56,071
before something happens to him.[Oswaldo] Okay.
654
00:35:56,246 --> 00:35:59,162
But, look,
we all took the wrong turn,
and we ended up at Yale. Word?
655
00:35:59,336 --> 00:36:00,511
[all chuckle]
656
00:36:00,685 --> 00:36:02,208
For real, it'’s some bullshit.
It is.
657
00:36:02,382 --> 00:36:04,558
But I'’m not here to educate.
I'’m trying to learn.
658
00:36:04,732 --> 00:36:07,735
I'’m trying to figure out the
best way to help my community
when the time comes.
659
00:36:07,909 --> 00:36:09,433
The fuck else is there?
660
00:36:11,130 --> 00:36:13,915
I'’m not about to
keep my guard up
if nobody'’s swinging.
661

[all chuckle]
662
00:36:18,529 --> 00:36:21,271
You could patent that, Naya.
663
00:36:22,663 --> 00:36:23,621
[Jackie] For my baby.
664
00:36:23,795 --> 00:36:24,926

[chattering]
666
00:36:26,841 --> 00:36:30,454
You did.
I taught you very well.
[laughs]
667
00:36:34,545 --> 00:36:36,242
So, you were saying
about the course?
668
00:36:36,416 --> 00:36:38,679
Yeah. You know,
with molecular biophysics
and biochemistry,
669
00:36:38,853 --> 00:36:40,899
you got all these
other sciences rolled in.
670
00:36:41,073 --> 00:36:44,207
Like, uh, geology, engineering,
even a-- astrophysics.
You can learn about--
671
00:36:44,381 --> 00:36:45,599
- Like space?
- Yeah.
672
00:36:45,773 --> 00:36:47,558
We learn how everything work, everything.
673
00:36:47,732 --> 00:36:49,037
It'’s incredible.
674
00:36:49,212 --> 00:36:51,649
So what are you gonna do
when you finish?
675
00:36:51,823 --> 00:36:53,564
Then I'’m gonna
go into research.
676
00:36:53,738 --> 00:36:56,741
New cancer treatments, immunology.
677
00:36:56,915 --> 00:37:00,440
When I graduate,
I'’ll take a PhD,
become a professor myself.

- Five months?

That'’s the soonest they can do.
687

With a whole new setup?
688
00:37:25,596 --> 00:37:27,075
That'’s right, a new judge.
689
00:37:28,468 --> 00:37:30,949
I only got out
'’cause of that judge, Shaun.
690
00:37:31,123 --> 00:37:33,081
That judge
knew I didn'’t do shit
from the start.
691
00:37:33,256 --> 00:37:35,214
I know, but there'’s
still no case there,
though, Pop.
692
00:37:35,388 --> 00:37:37,738
Well, they sure as fuck
thought there was a case.
693
00:37:37,912 --> 00:37:40,001
How much can you
put together for a lawyer?
694
00:37:40,175 --> 00:37:42,482
- I mean a good one.
- There'’s nothing, Pop.
695
00:37:42,656 --> 00:37:44,745
What about the people that
raised your money for school?
696
00:37:44,919 --> 00:37:47,313
That'’s just tuition.
I'’m working in the kitchen
for everything else.
697
00:37:47,487 --> 00:37:49,489
What about
your friends up there?
They'’re all rich people, right?
698
00:37:49,663 --> 00:37:51,665

- Why not?
699

Didn'’t you promise me
you'’ll get me out of this place?
701
00:37:57,889 --> 00:38:01,371
- I am.
- Then stop screening my calls

Huh. [sniffs]

[Tav] I know, right?
720
00:39:01,605 --> 00:39:04,303
[Curtis] I never really know
what'’s going on with my dad.
721
00:39:05,696 --> 00:39:08,351
He'’s going back to the hospital
in a few weeks.
722
00:39:10,657 --> 00:39:12,703
I think I'’m gonna
drop out of Morehouse.
723

Come back for a bit.
724
00:39:15,183 --> 00:39:16,359

725
00:39:17,447 --> 00:39:19,144
Yeah.
726
00:39:19,318 --> 00:39:22,495
My mom'’s nervous as shit
to be in the house by herself.
727
00:39:22,669 --> 00:39:24,628
Only white lady
in a three-mile radius.
728
00:39:24,802 --> 00:39:27,500
Man, I told you I could
help her sell this place
if it comes down to that.
729
00:39:28,849 --> 00:39:31,199
How the real estate business
coming?
730
00:39:31,374 --> 00:39:33,463
For me,
it'’s dog shit mostly.
731
00:39:34,507 --> 00:39:36,770
They still got me
doing title research.
732
00:39:36,944 --> 00:39:39,164
But there'’s money
in flipping houses.
733
00:39:39,338 --> 00:39:42,123
Or just getting
all these vacant homes
back in circulation.
734
00:39:42,297 --> 00:39:44,952
Yo, that'’s actually what
I wanted to talk to you about.
735
00:39:45,126 --> 00:39:47,215
Look, if we still had
my dad'’s place on Pierson,
736
00:39:47,390 --> 00:39:49,000
we wouldn'’t be
in any of this shit.
737
00:39:49,174 --> 00:39:51,829
I'’d flip it in a heartbeat,
get my dad the lawyer he wants
738
00:39:52,003 --> 00:39:54,179
and still have enough money
for grad school.
739
00:39:55,267 --> 00:39:57,835
That'’s what Yale

When you start with it,
what it means.
743
00:40:03,971 --> 00:40:05,451
I mean, look at that school.
744
00:40:05,625 --> 00:40:08,976
It took 200 years
for Yale to be what it is.
More.
745
00:40:09,934 --> 00:40:11,892
That'’s what we gotta do
out here--
746
00:40:12,066 --> 00:40:13,633
change the microenvironment.
747
00:40:13,807 --> 00:40:16,331
[chuckles] The what?
The microenvironment?
748
00:40:16,506 --> 00:40:18,725
[Rob] In cancer research,
you improve immune response
749
00:40:18,899 --> 00:40:20,292

in standing by your people
754
00:40:58,330 --> 00:41:01,551
to fight uncertainty
and chaos.
755
00:41:04,423 --> 00:41:06,338
And I wanted to do the same.
756
00:41:08,296 --> 00:41:10,168
So, inspired by him
757
00:41:10,342 --> 00:41:12,823
and the biological world
I was studying,
758
00:41:12,997 --> 00:41:17,175
I would try and pull all
the divergent areas of my life
together
759
00:41:17,349 --> 00:41:18,655
and create balance.
760
00:41:18,829 --> 00:41:21,005

Thank you, everybody.

Professor Durham, you mind
if I have a quick word with you?
764
00:41:28,099 --> 00:41:29,143
Of course.
765
00:41:29,317 --> 00:41:31,276
I enjoyed your paper,
Mr. Peace.
766
00:41:31,450 --> 00:41:35,367
Your knowledge
of mitochondrial diseases
is very advanced for a freshman.
767
00:41:35,541 --> 00:41:36,455
Why is that?
768
00:41:36,629 --> 00:41:38,501
I did a couple extra courses
769
00:41:38,675 --> 00:41:40,546
at Essex Community College
my senior year.
770
00:41:40,720 --> 00:41:42,243

Come on. That'’s it?
771
00:41:42,417 --> 00:41:45,856
No, I, uh--
I actually got
a bit obsessed with it.
772
00:41:46,030 --> 00:41:47,901
Metabolic disorders,
gene therapy treatments,
773
00:41:48,075 --> 00:41:49,599
that kind of thing.
774

Doesn'’t seem to be
bothering you though.
777
00:41:56,997 --> 00:42:00,479
Uh, yeah.
I think I'’m doing all right.
I, uh...
778
00:42:00,653 --> 00:42:02,699
That'’s what I wanted
to talk to you about actually,
779
00:42:02,873 --> 00:42:04,744
if there'’s anything else
I could be looking at.
780
00:42:04,918 --> 00:42:07,834
Yes, always.
What are you bad at?
781
00:42:08,008 --> 00:42:09,140
What are your gaps?
782
00:42:09,314 --> 00:42:12,230
I guess right now
it'’s lab work.
783
00:42:12,404 --> 00:42:14,841
I haven'’t had
that much exposure to it
at this level.
784
00:42:15,015 --> 00:42:16,800
I think that'’s why
I'’m favoring the theoretical
785
00:42:16,974 --> 00:42:18,541
over the practical
side of things.
786
00:42:19,803 --> 00:42:22,545
Well, how about assisting
grad students in the lab?
787
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,547
We don'’t normally offer that
until the sophomore year,
788

I'’m prepared
to make an exception.

00:45:55,801 --> 00:45:58,238
But the school
couldn'’t care less about
throwing my ass to the curb,
850
00:45:58,412 --> 00:46:00,284
or yours for sure.
851
00:46:00,458 --> 00:46:02,025
It'’s the bullshit
we'’re in now.
852
00:46:02,199 --> 00:46:04,157
Uh, not "we."
[chuckles]
853
00:46:04,331 --> 00:46:07,030
Equal rights to sell drugs
is not the hill
I'’m about to die on, bro.
854
00:46:07,204 --> 00:46:08,945
[laughs]
Fuck that.
855
00:46:09,119 --> 00:46:10,773
[Naya] Hey, guys.
856
00:46:10,947 --> 00:46:13,558
Not sure how much more
of your privileged shit
I can take.
857
00:46:13,732 --> 00:46:18,302
One of your people out there
has a tattoo that says,
"Dominate or drown."
858
00:46:18,476 --> 00:46:19,607
[Rob chuckles]
859
00:46:19,782 --> 00:46:21,348
[mouths] What the fuck?
860
00:46:21,522 --> 00:46:24,177
Hey, it'’s not my people,
but it'’s true. [chuckles]
861
00:46:24,351 --> 00:46:25,352
See ya, fellas.
862
00:46:26,310 --> 00:46:27,311
See ya.
863
00:46:29,356 --> 00:46:30,923
- [Oswaldo] You good, man?
- Hmm?
864
00:46:32,446 --> 00:46:33,796
[laughs]
865
00:46:33,970 --> 00:46:35,972
I'’m fine.
866
00:46:36,146 --> 00:46:38,235
[Naya]
So, what'’s your greatest fear?
867
00:46:38,409 --> 00:46:42,326
I fear failure,
I guess,
like everybody else.
868
00:46:43,153 --> 00:46:44,371
What about you?
869
00:46:46,025 --> 00:46:49,724
Honestly, sometimes I feel
like I'’m scared of everything.[both chuckle]
870
00:46:49,899 --> 00:46:52,815
So it'’d probably be easier
for me to tell you
what I'’m not scared of.
871
00:46:52,989 --> 00:46:54,904
Okay, what are you
not scared of?
872
00:46:56,514 --> 00:46:58,864
Honestly, I guess
I'’m not scared of failure.
[laughing]
873
00:46:59,038 --> 00:47:00,300
[laughing] What?
874
00:47:00,474 --> 00:47:02,128
Like, I'’d rather not fail.
875
00:47:02,302 --> 00:47:05,131
But most of the times,
isn'’t that
the best way to learn?
876
00:47:05,305 --> 00:47:08,395
No, not for me,
if I can avoid it.
877
00:47:08,569 --> 00:47:10,354
And how do you avoid it?
878
00:47:10,528 --> 00:47:12,747
Try to keep things simple.
879
00:47:12,922 --> 00:47:16,751
Harmonize complexities
until a solution
presents itself.
880
00:47:16,926 --> 00:47:19,102
So you'’re an idealist
is what this means?
881
00:47:19,276 --> 00:47:20,538
No, I'’m a scientist.
882

Okay, for the ELISA experiment,
889
00:48:05,235 --> 00:48:07,890
choose your primary antibody
and your enzyme label
890
00:48:08,064 --> 00:48:12,024
and then proceed

What are you doing
at this station?

Aren'’t you
the lab assistant?

00:48:38,659 --> 00:48:41,184
Yeah. Professor Durham
asked me to come
and check the crystal screens.

00:48:41,358 --> 00:48:43,926
Really? Why?
897
00:48:44,100 --> 00:48:46,145

You gotta ask her that, man.

right there?
900
00:48:51,934 --> 00:48:53,239
Yeah.
901
00:48:53,413 --> 00:48:56,373
I had a question
about the protein preparation.
902
00:48:56,547 --> 00:48:57,635
I'’m sorry?
903
00:48:57,809 --> 00:48:59,680
You'’re using
a phosphate buffer.
904
00:49:01,291 --> 00:49:02,205
That'’s gonna bind, right?
905
00:49:02,379 --> 00:49:03,902
No. Its dialyzed,
906
00:49:04,076 --> 00:49:06,470
so any binding at this scale
will be negligible.
907
00:49:06,644 --> 00:49:09,386
Yeah, it'’ll be small,
but I don'’t think
it'’ll be negligible.
908
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:10,474
- You don'’t think?
- No.
909
00:49:10,648 --> 00:49:12,084
I think it'’s fine.
910
00:49:12,563 --> 00:49:13,564
Okay.
911
00:49:17,698 --> 00:49:20,875
You know, I actually don'’t even
trust what you think, man.
912
00:49:22,094 --> 00:49:23,530
Excuse me?
913
00:49:23,704 --> 00:49:26,490
You came in here thinking
I was in the wrong place.
914
00:49:26,664 --> 00:49:27,882
I'’m not.
915
00:49:28,579 --> 00:49:29,972
[scoffs]
916
00:49:38,676 --> 00:49:42,332
I spoke with them
about questioning you.
It won'’t happen again.
917
00:49:42,506 --> 00:49:45,683
I really don'’t need you
to fight my battles for me, okay?
918
00:49:45,857 --> 00:49:47,380
Okay.
919
00:49:47,554 --> 00:49:50,514
But it wasn'’t
entirely for you,
to be honest.
920
00:49:50,688 --> 00:49:52,472
Bias, any bias,
921
00:49:52,646 --> 00:49:58,261
racial or gendered,
it'’s a... serious challenge
for us here.
922
00:49:59,740 --> 00:50:03,918
Science is almost defined
by its paternalism
and conservatism.
923
00:50:04,093 --> 00:50:06,182
It'’s a problem,
not just for individuals
924
00:50:06,356 --> 00:50:08,358
but for the discipline
as a whole.
925
00:50:09,750 --> 00:50:11,230
You, for example,
926
00:50:11,404 --> 00:50:14,929
have a brilliant mind
and a unique life experience.
927
00:50:15,104 --> 00:50:17,149
Certainly unique
from most of us here.
928
00:50:17,323 --> 00:50:20,413
And that combination
might make you
just a little more likely
929
00:50:20,587 --> 00:50:23,808
to think of
an alternative solution
to a problem, right?
930
00:50:23,982 --> 00:50:28,682
Rather than just
the incremental evolution
of an existing solution.
931
00:50:29,596 --> 00:50:30,945
To think radically.
932
00:50:32,556 --> 00:50:34,993
And radical thinking
changes the world.
933
00:50:35,907 --> 00:50:37,387
So I'’m an experiment too?
934
00:50:37,561 --> 00:50:40,955
Well, we all are
when it comes down to it, yeah?
935
00:50:42,087 --> 00:50:43,915
It'’s the reason why
we should never lose sight
936
00:50:44,089 --> 00:50:46,570
of fundamental
scientific reasoning.
937
00:50:46,744 --> 00:50:48,702
If complications arise...
938
00:50:50,835 --> 00:50:52,793
try making changes.
939
00:50:58,973 --> 00:51:02,368
You can choose hours
when it'’s quiet around here
if you want.
940
00:51:43,496 --> 00:51:44,497

941
00:51:52,244 --> 00:51:53,767
Can I ask you something?
942
00:51:54,855 --> 00:51:56,030
Yeah.
943
00:51:57,336 --> 00:51:58,642
What'’s going on?
944
00:52:05,997 --> 00:52:07,912
I just got a lot on my mind.
945
00:52:16,094 --> 00:52:19,053
I'’m just trying to talk.
That'’s all.
946
00:52:23,623 --> 00:52:24,624
Okay.
947
00:52:27,323 --> 00:52:28,846
[clears throat]
948
00:52:37,376 --> 00:52:39,726
- I got a friend back at home.
- Mm-hmm.
949
00:52:39,900 --> 00:52:41,250
And he'’s doing time.
950
00:52:44,601 --> 00:52:47,560
And he has an appeal coming up,
and he'’s probably...
951
00:52:49,780 --> 00:52:51,173
gonna lose.
952
00:52:52,826 --> 00:52:55,960
And it'’s just been
stressing me out.
953
00:52:58,528 --> 00:53:00,356
I could raise money
for a lawyer,
954
00:53:00,530 --> 00:53:02,836
but that'’s just gonna
fuck up everything
I got going over here.
955
00:53:04,316 --> 00:53:08,494
So, you feel like you'’re pulled
between this place and home.
956
00:53:10,714 --> 00:53:12,324
Yeah.
957
00:53:12,498 --> 00:53:14,761
It'’s hard to know
what'’s more important.
958
00:53:17,634 --> 00:53:18,678
Yeah.
959
00:53:33,824 --> 00:53:36,609
I am deeply unsettled
by this case.
960
00:53:36,783 --> 00:53:40,134
And I unequivocally side
with the State'’s counter appeal.
961
00:53:40,309 --> 00:53:44,878
I see no reason
for the post-conviction relief
to stand.
962
00:53:45,052 --> 00:53:49,100
I can honestly not see
why it was instituted
in the first place.
963
00:53:50,449 --> 00:53:52,103
It is hereby overturned,
964
00:53:52,277 --> 00:53:55,106
and you are to be sent back to
Trenton Correctional Institution
965
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,674
to serve out the remainder
of your sentence.
966
00:54:24,048 --> 00:54:25,092
[sighs]
967
00:54:27,269 --> 00:54:29,923
[lawyer]
This latest judgment is absurd.
968
00:54:30,097 --> 00:54:32,665
For a retainer
of a few thousand dollars,
I can take this on,
969
00:54:32,839 --> 00:54:34,058
and I think we will win.
970
00:54:34,232 --> 00:54:36,800
But I warn you,
it'’ll get expensive.
971
00:54:36,974 --> 00:54:39,411
And the basis from which
we would now be working
972
00:54:39,585 --> 00:54:42,153
is that your father
was treated unfairly
by the system,
973
00:54:42,327 --> 00:54:44,155
even though he was guilty.
974
00:54:45,852 --> 00:54:47,550
I understand that as a strategy.
975
00:54:47,724 --> 00:54:49,639
It'’s not a strategy.
976
00:54:49,813 --> 00:54:52,468
Of course, it'’s possible
that Irving Gaskins
was telling the truth
977
00:54:52,642 --> 00:54:55,297
and the police planted
a murder weapon
on your father.
978
00:54:55,471 --> 00:54:58,822
But it'’s also possible,
and if you ask me, likely,
979
00:54:58,996 --> 00:55:00,432
he was simply
protecting his friend.
980
00:55:00,606 --> 00:55:03,000
It'’s not just
Mr. Gaskins though.
981
00:55:03,174 --> 00:55:05,132
There was a lot of questions
about the murder weapon.
982
00:55:05,307 --> 00:55:07,874
I believe the police
destroyed my father'’s gun
and switched it out.
983
00:55:08,048 --> 00:55:10,181
There'’s absolutely no evidence
to support that.
984
00:55:10,355 --> 00:55:12,531
And why did your father
have a gun on him at all?
985
00:55:12,705 --> 00:55:14,794
Probably for protection.
He was selling weed back then.
986
00:55:14,968 --> 00:55:16,579
You never asked him.
987
00:55:16,753 --> 00:55:18,363
I don'’t need to.
988
00:55:18,537 --> 00:55:21,627
Look, I'’m sure that I would
wanna believe my father too.
989
00:55:22,802 --> 00:55:24,108
But in this case,
990
00:55:24,282 --> 00:55:28,199
the objective facts
are just not on his side.
991
00:55:30,462 --> 00:55:31,768
[Rob] I spoke to a lawyer.
992
00:55:32,769 --> 00:55:34,074
You can afford a lawyer?
993
00:55:34,248 --> 00:55:36,163
[Rob]
Just wanted to see
what he'’d say.
994
00:55:36,338 --> 00:55:37,469
And what'’d he say?
995
00:55:37,643 --> 00:55:39,732
He didn'’t think
Dad was innocent.
996
00:55:40,516 --> 00:55:42,082
Well, what do you think?
997
00:55:42,256 --> 00:55:44,346
I think it'’s the system.
998
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:46,913
I think they cover themselves.
999
00:55:47,087 --> 00:55:48,959
They cover their own.
1000
00:55:49,133 --> 00:55:52,223
Shaun, it'’s been over 13 years.
You don'’t think you should stop?
1001
00:55:52,397 --> 00:55:55,444
It don'’t matter
if it'’s been 13 years
or 30 years if he didn'’t do it.
1002
00:55:55,618 --> 00:55:56,793
There'’s no motive.
1003
00:55:56,967 --> 00:55:58,882
The murder weapon
is inconsistent.
1004
00:55:59,056 --> 00:56:00,362
No history of violence.
1005
00:56:00,536 --> 00:56:01,667
"No history of violence."
1006
00:56:01,841 --> 00:56:03,800
You tell me then,
was he violent?
1007
00:56:10,241 --> 00:56:11,373
Was he?
1008
00:56:17,379 --> 00:56:18,467
With you.
1009
00:56:20,382 --> 00:56:22,819
It didn'’t happen a lot,
but it happened.
1010
00:56:22,993 --> 00:56:27,127
And when it did, I made sure
we all weren'’t living
in the same house.
1011
00:56:27,301 --> 00:56:29,565
I didn'’t think there was much
wrong with trying to preserve
a little bit
1012
00:56:29,739 --> 00:56:31,567
of the image
you had of your father.
1013
00:56:35,092 --> 00:56:37,660
[sighs]
Maybe even that was too much.
1014
00:56:48,627 --> 00:56:49,628

1015

00:57:36,980 --> 00:57:38,111
Shit!
1019
00:57:42,507 --> 00:57:44,030
[breathing shakily]
1020
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,431
[crying]
1021
00:57:55,912 --> 00:57:58,915
I should'’ve told you
it was my dad in prison, baby.
1022
00:57:59,785 --> 00:58:00,917
I'’m sorry.
1023
00:58:04,007 --> 00:58:05,095
It'’s okay.
1024
00:58:06,749 --> 00:58:08,446
It'’s okay. I get it.
1025
00:58:11,057 --> 00:58:13,190
Rob, you just have to know
1026
00:58:14,539 --> 00:58:16,585
that none of this
is your fault.
1027
00:58:18,935 --> 00:58:19,936
It'’s not.
1028
00:58:21,372 --> 00:58:22,721
So why is it on you?
1029
00:58:24,201 --> 00:58:27,030
I just don'’t believe
he'’s a murderer.
1030
00:58:31,338 --> 00:58:33,776
You shouldn'’t have to
carry all of this.
1031
00:58:36,866 --> 00:58:38,084
[sighs]
1032
00:58:39,477 --> 00:58:42,654
God, you deserve
to live your life.
1033
00:58:44,221 --> 00:58:47,485
You deserve to have a shot
at being happy.
1034
00:58:49,487 --> 00:58:50,880
[sighs]
1035
00:58:51,054 --> 00:58:52,055
[kisses]
1036
00:58:54,579 --> 00:58:55,580
[kisses]
1037
00:59:03,066 --> 00:59:06,678
When I was a kid, I used to
sit in front of my house
after the rain.
1038
00:59:09,855 --> 00:59:12,771
You ever notice how the tires
hit the blacktop after the rain?
1039
00:59:12,945 --> 00:59:13,859
[waves crash]
1040
00:59:16,296 --> 00:59:18,168
[Rob]
It sounds like the ocean.
1041
00:59:26,045 --> 00:59:27,830
Used to close my eyes
1042
00:59:29,092 --> 00:59:31,573
and pretend I was on
some beautiful beach somewhere.
1043
00:59:33,313 --> 00:59:34,837
Switch off.
1044
00:59:38,231 --> 00:59:40,190
I gotta find that spot.
1045
00:59:43,933 --> 00:59:45,195
Maybe I can help.
1046
00:59:47,850 --> 00:59:51,723
I mean, my mom'’s from Rio.
My dad'’s from San Juan.
1047
00:59:51,897 --> 00:59:54,117
I do know something
about beaches.
1048
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:05,781
[phone ringing]
1049
01:00:11,482 --> 01:00:13,876
[exhales][ringing continues]
1050
01:00:20,404 --> 01:00:22,014
[ringing continues]
1051
01:00:27,541 --> 01:00:29,500
[ringing continues]
1052
01:00:40,250 --> 01:00:41,207
[beeps]
Hello?
1053
01:00:41,381 --> 01:00:43,209
[beeps]
1054
01:00:43,383 --> 01:00:44,863
This is a call
from the Trenton
Correctional Facility.
1055
01:00:45,037 --> 01:00:46,822
Will you accept the charges?
1056
01:00:49,128 --> 01:00:50,173
Um...
1057
01:00:51,783 --> 01:00:53,263
Sure.
1058
01:00:53,437 --> 01:00:55,700
I'’ve been getting
these headaches for a while now.
1059
01:00:55,874 --> 01:00:57,093
Just...
1060
01:00:57,702 --> 01:00:59,356
Just brushed it off.
1061
01:01:00,487 --> 01:01:02,751
You never think
it'’s gonna be something bad.
1062
01:01:03,708 --> 01:01:05,014
And I just, uh--
1063
01:01:07,581 --> 01:01:08,887
I blacked out.
1064
01:01:10,323 --> 01:01:12,151
Keeled over in the dayroom.
1065
01:01:14,327 --> 01:01:17,156
They took me down
to the infirmary
for tests, and...
1066
01:01:20,072 --> 01:01:22,466
And it came back
with brain cancer.
1067
01:01:23,902 --> 01:01:26,644
[Skeet breathes shakily]
1068
01:01:27,906 --> 01:01:29,168
[crying]
1069
01:01:29,342 --> 01:01:31,562
That'’s when I called you.
I'’m sorry.
1070
01:01:33,346 --> 01:01:35,000
It'’s okay. It'’s okay.
1071
01:01:35,174 --> 01:01:38,351
It'’s okay. I'’m sorry
I haven'’t been here as much.
1072
01:01:42,007 --> 01:01:43,748
I'’m gonna take care of you.
1073
01:01:46,272 --> 01:01:48,057
I'’m gonna get you out of here.
1074
01:01:53,062 --> 01:01:54,716
It'’s too late for that.
1075
01:01:57,849 --> 01:02:01,113
It'’s only gonna be
a few months now anyway.
They said, uh--
1076
01:02:03,246 --> 01:02:04,247
[sighs]
1077
01:02:05,683 --> 01:02:07,424
They said six.
1078
01:02:12,908 --> 01:02:14,648
[exhales]
1079
01:02:20,611 --> 01:02:24,441
You let me take care of you,
it'’ll be a lot longer than that.
1080
01:02:26,356 --> 01:02:27,749
I study cancer.
1081
01:02:30,099 --> 01:02:31,970
I study cancer.
1082
01:02:33,493 --> 01:02:36,540
I know all about
the new medications
and what they do.
1083
01:02:36,714 --> 01:02:38,890
I can buy '’em for you.
1084
01:02:39,064 --> 01:02:41,632
You'’ll see me graduate,
for a start.
1085
01:02:43,547 --> 01:02:44,940
And way beyond that.
1086
01:02:46,071 --> 01:02:49,945
You'’re not gonna
fight this alone. Okay?
1087
01:02:51,468 --> 01:02:53,557
I will get you out of here, Dad.
1088
01:02:55,515 --> 01:02:56,734
I love you.
1089
01:03:04,089 --> 01:03:05,395
[sighs]
1090
01:03:05,569 --> 01:03:07,223
I love you too, Son.
1091
01:03:24,762 --> 01:03:27,243
[Rob] The need
for my father'’s medication
1092
01:03:27,417 --> 01:03:30,072
tested everything
I thought I believed.
1093
01:03:33,771 --> 01:03:35,904
Tested my commitment
to family...
1094
01:03:41,039 --> 01:03:42,345
community...
1095
01:03:47,741 --> 01:03:48,830
all of it.
1096
01:04:01,843 --> 01:04:04,671
Was I prepared
to risk everything...
1097
01:04:06,673 --> 01:04:08,458
that I had achieved
1098
01:04:09,894 --> 01:04:11,243
for him?
1099
01:04:15,857 --> 01:04:17,380
Watch your head
when you'’re coming in.
1100
01:04:17,554 --> 01:04:20,122
[Rob]
I want this application
to be truthful.
1101
01:04:20,296 --> 01:04:24,126
And the truth is,
I'’m not proud
of all the choices I made.
1102
01:04:24,300 --> 01:04:27,694
A lot of my dad'’s shit
is still down here,
but you can use the place.
1103
01:04:28,565 --> 01:04:30,436
- This is perfect, man.
- Yeah.
1104
01:04:31,307 --> 01:04:32,612
Working in the lab
1105
01:04:32,786 --> 01:04:34,397
means I can bring
the equipment back out here.
1106
01:04:35,572 --> 01:04:38,009
You bring the bulk weed
from Florida, all right?
1107
01:04:38,183 --> 01:04:40,055
And I'’ll treat the buds,
1108
01:04:40,751 --> 01:04:41,883
make '’em more potent.
1109
01:04:43,101 --> 01:04:45,321
Everything on campus
is pretty much dog shit,
1110
01:04:45,495 --> 01:04:47,236
so it'’s a huge market
for good product.
1111
01:04:49,847 --> 01:04:52,110
There'’s plenty of
white boys selling.
1112
01:04:52,937 --> 01:04:55,592
The school kinda let it slide.
1113
01:04:56,419 --> 01:04:58,116
You gonna pack it all from here?
1114
01:04:59,291 --> 01:05:00,945
If that'’s all right.[Curtis] Sure.
1115
01:05:01,119 --> 01:05:03,078
My mom'’s not coming back.
1116
01:05:03,252 --> 01:05:04,906
Not since my dad passed.
1117
01:05:18,789 --> 01:05:20,704
[canister hissing]
1118
01:06:16,499 --> 01:06:17,804
It'’s good.
1119
01:06:20,198 --> 01:06:22,070
How good? Articulate it.
1120
01:06:22,244 --> 01:06:24,333
"Articulate it"?
1121
01:06:24,507 --> 01:06:26,291
It'’s like
I don'’t feel all fucked up,
1122
01:06:26,465 --> 01:06:28,032
but I'’m still getting high
as a motherfucker.
1123
01:06:28,206 --> 01:06:29,860
You feel like
you could still do shit?
1124
01:06:30,034 --> 01:06:31,383
Like what?
1125
01:06:31,557 --> 01:06:33,690
I don'’t know.
Like read a book, drive a car.
1126
01:06:33,864 --> 01:06:36,736
- [Curtis] Right now?
- Hypothetically, bro.
1127
01:06:38,173 --> 01:06:39,304
[inhales sharply]
1128
01:06:39,478 --> 01:06:41,132
Maybe.
1129
01:06:41,306 --> 01:06:43,743
So what,
you mixing different strains
together or something?
1130
01:06:43,917 --> 01:06:47,399
Nah, man.
If we had some planters,
I could do some hybridization.
1131
01:06:47,573 --> 01:06:49,140
Mmm.
1132
01:06:49,314 --> 01:06:51,012
But for now,
I'’m just extracting
the cannabis oil
1133
01:06:51,186 --> 01:06:52,665
and dropping it
right on the buds.
1134
01:06:52,839 --> 01:06:54,102
But mostly butane.
1135
01:06:54,276 --> 01:06:56,582
Patent this shit, bro.
Patent it.
1136
01:07:00,325 --> 01:07:01,805
You guys wanna open a window?
1137
01:07:01,979 --> 01:07:03,633
[Tav] Shit.[partner]
Or maybe grab me a gas mask?
1138
01:07:03,807 --> 01:07:05,243
Sorry, babe.
1139
01:07:06,984 --> 01:07:08,203
[clears throat]
1140
01:07:09,900 --> 01:07:11,728
[kisses]
1141
01:07:11,902 --> 01:07:13,686
[partner]
You coming up anytime soon?[Tav] I'’m coming now.
1142
01:07:17,342 --> 01:07:18,822
[clears throat]
1143
01:07:18,996 --> 01:07:20,867
You'’re sitting
on a gold mine, man,
for real.
1144
01:07:21,042 --> 01:07:22,478
[Rob] Look, we do this
the right way, man,
1145
01:07:22,652 --> 01:07:24,219
we can get to
that other thing too.
1146
01:07:24,393 --> 01:07:25,959
Abandoned homes, bro.
1147
01:07:26,134 --> 01:07:28,136
Getting a legacy.
1148
01:07:28,310 --> 01:07:30,964
I don'’t want your boy
growing up the way we did.
1149
01:07:37,667 --> 01:07:39,408
It'’s cool. It'’s cool. It'’s cool.
1150
01:08:07,044 --> 01:08:08,393
[inhales deeply]
1151
01:08:15,531 --> 01:08:17,576
[laughs]
1152
01:08:17,750 --> 01:08:18,925
Come on!
1153
01:08:19,970 --> 01:08:21,232
[laughing] Come on! Yo!
1154
01:08:22,538 --> 01:08:24,496
[buyer]
Rob Peace! How'’d you know?
1155
01:08:24,670 --> 01:08:25,932
In and out of the pool.
1156
01:08:26,107 --> 01:08:27,325
[Rob] Gotta stay sedated.
1157
01:08:27,499 --> 01:08:29,458
What'’s that right there?
Let me see.
1158
01:08:29,632 --> 01:08:31,982
This is 40?
Yeah, that'’s a 40.
1159
01:08:45,952 --> 01:08:48,781
[guard]
Douglas, medication for you.
1160
01:08:56,311 --> 01:08:58,269
It seems plausible
to infer the information
1161
01:08:58,443 --> 01:09:00,750
from the differences
in electron densities.
1162
01:09:03,144 --> 01:09:04,536
Yes. It'’s excellent.
1163
01:09:05,842 --> 01:09:08,584
Look, I think it'’ll make
a pretty good subject for a PhD.
1164
01:09:08,758 --> 01:09:12,936
I wanna stick to biochemistry
and therapeutic application
postgrad.
1165
01:09:13,110 --> 01:09:15,156
Yes! That'’s great news.
1166
01:09:15,330 --> 01:09:18,942
I think you should start
applying for programs
as soon as possible.
1167
01:09:19,116 --> 01:09:21,771
You'’ll have
my full recommendation
to a topflight school,
1168
01:09:21,945 --> 01:09:23,555
and now in your final year,
1169
01:09:23,729 --> 01:09:25,992
we'’ll just continue
to support you
in any way we can.
1170
01:09:34,827 --> 01:09:36,351
[person] Yo, what'’s up, bro?
1171
01:09:37,656 --> 01:09:39,267
[chattering]
1172
01:09:48,754 --> 01:09:51,061
- [lawyer] Mr. Douglas.
- Hey. How you doing?
1173
01:09:51,235 --> 01:09:52,280
- Hello.
- Hey.
1174
01:09:52,454 --> 01:09:55,021
Tom Rivers.
Pleasure to meet you.
1175
01:10:00,766 --> 01:10:02,203
Even if somebody opened it,
1176
01:10:03,682 --> 01:10:05,858
they still wouldn'’t know
what'’s inside.
1177
01:10:06,032 --> 01:10:08,426
How much is enough?
1178
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:11,299
Lawyer gonna need 30K
for the next review.
1179
01:10:11,473 --> 01:10:15,128
Same thing for another
six months of medication.
1180
01:10:17,348 --> 01:10:18,654
You okay?
1181
01:10:22,571 --> 01:10:24,225
I just feel like
I came a long way
1182
01:10:24,399 --> 01:10:26,357
just to end up
with the biggest dealer
on campus.
1183
01:10:26,531 --> 01:10:28,316
But you know
- what I'’m doing this for.
- Yeah. I do.
1184
01:10:28,490 --> 01:10:30,753
- So why you giving me shit?
- Because it feels like
you like this.
1185
01:10:30,927 --> 01:10:32,233
I don'’t like it.
But what the fuck?
1186
01:10:32,407 --> 01:10:34,147
Am I supposed to walk around
mad all day?
1187
01:10:34,322 --> 01:10:36,454
Ain'’t this
what you asked me to do?

- I know.
1356
01:21:42,598 --> 01:21:44,948
I know. I'’m sorry
I can'’t give that back to you.
1357
01:21:45,122 --> 01:21:46,907
[Rob]
No. I don'’t want you to.
1358
01:21:52,086 --> 01:21:54,175
But I need you
to tell me the truth.
1359
01:21:58,744 --> 01:21:59,876
"The truth"?
1360
01:22:10,060 --> 01:22:11,757
Did you kill those women?
1361
01:22:23,378 --> 01:22:25,467
[Skeet breathing shakily]
1362
01:22:26,033 --> 01:22:27,034
You didn'’t...
1363
01:22:28,339 --> 01:22:30,037
You didn'’t believe me
all this time?
1364
01:22:30,211 --> 01:22:33,040
No. It'’s not that. It'’s just
we never talked about it.
1365
01:22:34,215 --> 01:22:36,130
Whether Irving was just trying
to protect you.
1366
01:22:36,304 --> 01:22:38,610
Why you had the gun
- in the first place.
- I'’m--
1367
01:22:38,784 --> 01:22:40,177
We never talked
about what happened.
1368
01:22:40,351 --> 01:22:42,223
[gasping]
I'’m dying, Shaun.
1369
01:22:44,312 --> 01:22:46,705
What difference
does it make now?
1370
01:22:47,706 --> 01:22:48,925
I need to know.
1371
01:22:52,711 --> 01:22:53,974
You need to know?
1372
01:22:54,148 --> 01:22:56,019
Come on! Get out! Come on!
1373
01:22:56,193 --> 01:22:58,195
The last thing I wanna--Get out of here!
1374
01:22:58,369 --> 01:23:01,372
The last thing I wanna do
- is let go of you, Dad.
- What are you talking about?
1375
01:23:01,546 --> 01:23:05,550
But if you can'’t
tell me the truth,
I got to. I got to.
1376
01:23:05,724 --> 01:23:08,510
Get out of here!
What the hell
are you talking about?
1377
01:23:08,684 --> 01:23:10,425
[sobbing]
I'’m gonna fucking die.
1378
01:23:12,557 --> 01:23:13,558
What'’s that...
1379
01:23:27,050 --> 01:23:28,921
[sobbing]
1380
01:23:42,935 --> 01:23:46,069
[priest]
God, accept our prayers
on behalf of your servant,
1381
01:23:46,243 --> 01:23:48,245
Skeet Douglas.
1382
01:23:48,419 --> 01:23:51,727
Do not
count his deeds against him,
1383
01:23:51,901 --> 01:23:55,513
for in his heart,
he desired to do your will.
1384
01:23:56,688 --> 01:24:00,779
May your mercy join him
to the angels in heaven.
1385
01:24:02,042 --> 01:24:06,133
We ask this through Christ,
our Lord.
1386
01:24:07,525 --> 01:24:08,613
Amen.
1387
01:24:42,604 --> 01:24:44,127
[Rob]
There'’s no reason East Orange
1388
01:24:44,301 --> 01:24:46,564
can'’t be more like South Orange
or Montclair.
1389
01:24:46,738 --> 01:24:47,870
[scoffs][Rob] I'’m serious.
1390
01:24:48,044 --> 01:24:49,437
And we do it without
moving people out
1391
01:24:49,611 --> 01:24:51,091
or raising the rent.
1392
01:24:51,265 --> 01:24:52,701
It'’s just gonna take time.
1393
01:24:53,919 --> 01:24:56,270
First, we concentrate
between South Orange Ave.
1394
01:24:56,444 --> 01:24:57,488
and Central.
1395
01:24:58,620 --> 01:25:00,665
And when the banks come in,
we can expand.
1396
01:25:00,839 --> 01:25:02,537
Right now,
we'’re the primary investors.
1397
01:25:02,711 --> 01:25:04,887
It'’s gonna take about 20K each
for us to get started.
1398
01:25:05,061 --> 01:25:07,150
We can put that on top
of what I got saved from Yale.
1399
01:25:07,324 --> 01:25:09,457
And how are we
getting the money, selling?
1400
01:25:09,631 --> 01:25:12,460
Nah. We'’re past that.
This is legit.
I'’m getting a job.
1401
01:25:13,983 --> 01:25:16,855
I could get 20
from the refinance
on this place.
1402
01:25:19,162 --> 01:25:21,817
Tav, how much you got saved?
1403
01:25:22,557 --> 01:25:24,776
- Around there.
- Mm-mmm.
1404
01:25:24,950 --> 01:25:27,083
We'’ll figure it out.
It'’s all good.
1405
01:25:28,737 --> 01:25:29,781
I'’m in.
1406
01:25:32,436 --> 01:25:33,872
[chuckles]
1407
01:25:40,314 --> 01:25:41,315
[grunts]
1408
01:25:49,671 --> 01:25:53,022
[Rob] I still believed
in changing the world
around me.
1409
01:25:56,112 --> 01:25:57,722
[whistle blows]
1410
01:25:57,896 --> 01:25:59,942
Let'’s go! Let'’s go! Let'’s go!
1411
01:26:00,116 --> 01:26:04,338
[Rob]
I believed that all evolutions
could affect the future.
1412
01:26:09,386 --> 01:26:10,953
[whistle blows]
1413
01:26:12,302 --> 01:26:13,216
And maybe...
1414
01:26:13,390 --> 01:26:14,696
Hands up!
1415
01:26:14,870 --> 01:26:16,654
...correct the past.
1416
01:26:16,828 --> 01:26:19,091
So, what are we looking at?
1417
01:26:19,266 --> 01:26:21,006
It'’s my dad'’s old house.
1418
01:26:21,181 --> 01:26:22,921
It burned down years ago.
1419
01:26:23,661 --> 01:26:25,576
It was vacant for a while.
1420
01:26:25,750 --> 01:26:27,535
How much
you think it'’s worth now?
1421
01:26:29,450 --> 01:26:30,407
[exhales]
1422
01:26:31,234 --> 01:26:32,888
Hard to say from out here.
1423
01:26:33,062 --> 01:26:37,066
But, um, if they'’ve done
a reasonable job inside,
1424
01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:41,940
I'’d say... 200,000, 250,000.
1425
01:26:42,114 --> 01:26:44,116
200,000, 250,000?
1426
01:26:44,291 --> 01:26:47,642
There'’s 172
abandoned homes
in East Orange.
1427
01:26:47,816 --> 01:26:51,385
Right now,
they'’re just havens
for gangs and violence.
1428
01:26:51,559 --> 01:26:55,737
With your company'’s
large-scale contracting work
and my knowledge on the ground,
1429
01:26:55,911 --> 01:26:59,393
we can buy up
enough of them and turn this
whole neighborhood around.
1430
01:26:59,567 --> 01:27:01,960
And what are you
asking for exactly?
Reduced labor costs?
1431
01:27:02,134 --> 01:27:06,095
Yeah, for a significant share
of my company, Peace Realty.
1432
01:27:06,269 --> 01:27:08,967
Look... [chuckles]
...even with reduced costs,
1433
01:27:09,141 --> 01:27:11,318
you'’ll need the banks
to loan you
a lot of money up front.
1434
01:27:11,492 --> 01:27:12,884
- I know.
- To get that,
1435
01:27:13,058 --> 01:27:14,582
you'’d have to show
clear and consistent profit
1436
01:27:14,756 --> 01:27:17,454
for at least a year,
maybe two.
1437
01:27:17,628 --> 01:27:19,369
Are you sure that'’s
what you wanna be doing?
1438
01:27:19,543 --> 01:27:23,243
Right now? Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
1439
01:27:24,069 --> 01:27:25,245
Okay.
1440
01:27:27,247 --> 01:27:29,031
Well...
1441
01:27:29,205 --> 01:27:32,687
Yeah, if you can get the houses
to a decent level,
1442
01:27:32,861 --> 01:27:36,168
show the numbers working
and guarantee the spend,
1443
01:27:37,169 --> 01:27:40,172
yeah, it'’s possible
we could come in.
1444
01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:46,701
[weed trimmer whirring]
1445
01:27:52,097 --> 01:27:55,231
All right, so, uh,
can anyone tell me
1446
01:27:55,405 --> 01:27:58,800
what determines
the activity of ions
in an aqueous solution?
1447
01:27:59,931 --> 01:28:01,106
- Go ahead.
- How they'’re charged.
1448
01:28:01,281 --> 01:28:04,327
Good. Good! Good!
And? What else we got?
1449
01:28:04,501 --> 01:28:05,720
Their density?
1450
01:28:05,894 --> 01:28:07,417
Okay. Um--
1451
01:28:07,591 --> 01:28:08,897
Their concentration,
1452
01:28:09,898 --> 01:28:11,247
or magnitude,
1453
01:28:11,421 --> 01:28:12,683
and their sign.
1454
01:28:12,857 --> 01:28:14,381
And what'’s the Yale version
of all that?
1455
01:28:14,555 --> 01:28:16,426
Trust me.
Y'’all don'’t wanna
know that, man.
1456
01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:18,776
Come on, sir.
Bring back that knowledge.
1457
01:28:18,950 --> 01:28:20,996
[all] Yeah! [clamoring]
1458
01:28:21,170 --> 01:28:23,651
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
You don'’t wanna know that.
It'’s the Yale version!
1459
01:28:23,825 --> 01:28:25,740
[students clamoring]
For real? All right, look.
1460
01:28:25,914 --> 01:28:28,133
[Rob] You asked for it.
1461
01:28:28,308 --> 01:28:31,702
I want us all to bear in mind
the Nernst equation.
1462
01:28:31,876 --> 01:28:35,271
Yeah. Calculating
the ionic equilibrium potential.
1463
01:28:35,445 --> 01:28:39,406
So Ecell,
the instantaneous
cell potential...
1464
01:28:39,580 --> 01:28:42,191
Y'’all don'’t wanna know now.[students laugh]
1465
01:28:42,365 --> 01:28:44,236
[Rob]
The instantaneous
cell potential...
1466
01:28:45,586 --> 01:28:47,370
[hammers pounding][machinery whirring]
1467
01:28:53,028 --> 01:28:55,291
Y'’all working hard. [chuckles]
1468
01:29:06,433 --> 01:29:10,480
The neighborhood was pretty good
when you were a child.
1469
01:29:10,654 --> 01:29:14,179
No reason why
it couldn'’t be again.[Rob] Uh-huh.
1470
01:29:16,530 --> 01:29:18,053
That was a long time ago, Mama.
1471
01:29:18,227 --> 01:29:20,447
The five places
in Oakwood...
[chuckles]
1472
01:29:20,621 --> 01:29:22,927
...you won'’t even
recognize them by the time
we'’re done with them.
1473
01:29:23,101 --> 01:29:25,974
It'’s like you got
an umbilical cord
stuck in East Orange,
1474
01:29:26,148 --> 01:29:28,150
and no one can shake it off you.
1475
01:29:29,891 --> 01:29:31,022
Get some rest, Mama.
1476
01:29:40,771 --> 01:29:43,252
She'’s right.
What we'’re doing is important.
1477
01:29:43,426 --> 01:29:45,036
We'’re changing things
around here.
1478
01:29:45,210 --> 01:29:47,125
You already
changed things, Shaun.
1479
01:29:47,299 --> 01:29:50,607
You'’re the son of a convict,
and you'’ve never been to jail.
1480
01:29:50,781 --> 01:29:52,479
You changed things.
1481
01:29:52,653 --> 01:29:55,220
You'’re the son of a convict,
and you went to Yale.
1482
01:29:55,395 --> 01:29:56,918
Baby, go to grad school.
1483
01:29:57,092 --> 01:29:59,137
The neighborhood'’s
not on you.
1484
01:29:59,311 --> 01:30:01,531
I know you lost your father,
and I lost mine,
1485
01:30:01,705 --> 01:30:04,316
and any day now,
we'’re gonna lose Mama too.
1486
01:30:05,579 --> 01:30:07,711
But at least for right now,
for once in your life,
1487
01:30:07,885 --> 01:30:10,279
you can just breathe.
1488
01:30:10,453 --> 01:30:11,933
Find your dream.
1489
01:30:16,372 --> 01:30:18,418
[Rob] Go ahead. [chuckles]
1490
01:30:18,592 --> 01:30:19,506
All right, now.
1491
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:21,116
[Rob, homeowner chuckle]
1492
01:30:22,204 --> 01:30:23,814
I'’ll get the sign
out of here soon, okay?
1493
01:30:23,988 --> 01:30:24,989
All right.
1494
01:30:27,339 --> 01:30:28,645
[chuckles]
1495
01:30:28,819 --> 01:30:31,996
All right. Let'’s do it.
1496
01:30:32,170 --> 01:30:35,130
[Oswaldo] Look,
I know you think Peace Realty
could basically run itself,
1497
01:30:35,304 --> 01:30:38,133
but there are, like,
15 other Realtors
popping up now.
1498
01:30:38,916 --> 01:30:40,483
You were right.
1499
01:30:40,657 --> 01:30:43,225
You were first,
but now everybody
sees the potential.
1500
01:30:43,399 --> 01:30:46,271
Even some of the guys
who were working with you
started a company.
1501
01:30:46,446 --> 01:30:48,317
I trained my competition.
There'’s no better compliment.
1502
01:30:48,491 --> 01:30:50,406
[Oswaldo] Yeah,
but if you wanna stay on top,
1503
01:30:50,580 --> 01:30:52,016
you gotta
keep the business growing.
1504
01:30:52,190 --> 01:30:53,714
We can help you do that.
1505
01:30:53,888 --> 01:30:55,846
And we'’re prepared
to take on a larger commitment.
1506
01:30:56,020 --> 01:30:57,282
It was never about
staying on top.
1507
01:30:57,457 --> 01:30:59,502
It was about
changing the neighborhood.
1508
01:30:59,676 --> 01:31:03,027
It doesn'’t matter
if that'’s with Peace Realty
or with someone else.
1509
01:31:03,201 --> 01:31:05,203
Well, it matters to us.
1510
01:31:05,900 --> 01:31:07,336
What'’s going on, man?
1511
01:31:07,510 --> 01:31:09,469
You know, we wanna keep
growing this investment.
1512
01:31:09,643 --> 01:31:10,992
And I don'’t mean
for developments
1513
01:31:11,166 --> 01:31:13,429
like they got going up
in Jersey City and Newark.
1514
01:31:13,603 --> 01:31:15,562
I'’m talking about
a-- a community trajectory.
1515
01:31:15,736 --> 01:31:17,389
You sound like
you sellin'’ this to me now.
1516
01:31:17,564 --> 01:31:20,436
[laughing] I'’m trying to.[Rob laughs]
1517
01:31:20,610 --> 01:31:23,395
Yeah, man,
don'’t let Peace Realty
fall away.
1518
01:31:23,570 --> 01:31:26,007
You'’re right.
It'’s not just about money.
1519
01:31:26,181 --> 01:31:28,879
But it'’s that attitude
that'’s making this successful.
1520
01:31:29,663 --> 01:31:31,273
People know it'’s about heart.
1521
01:31:34,929 --> 01:31:36,974
[Rob] I'’m thinking about
trying something else.
1522
01:31:38,062 --> 01:31:40,282
Even getting inspiration
overseas.
1523
01:31:40,456 --> 01:31:42,284
Maybe.
1524
01:31:42,458 --> 01:31:44,852
I just wanted
to talk to you about it
before I made any decisions.
1525
01:31:45,026 --> 01:31:48,029
What about continuing
with your studies?
1526
01:31:49,247 --> 01:31:51,641
Getting your PhD
like you always wanted?
1527
01:31:51,815 --> 01:31:53,643
Running your own lab somewhere?
1528
01:31:53,817 --> 01:31:56,994
I like that.
I still don'’t know if I can
get into any programs
1529
01:31:57,168 --> 01:31:58,909
with everything
that happened at Yale.
1530
01:31:59,083 --> 01:32:02,130
You might not need
those recommendations
anymore.
1531
01:32:02,304 --> 01:32:04,915
You graduated with honors,
and you may have been here
long enough
1532
01:32:05,089 --> 01:32:07,265
to get into a program
with a teaching requirement.
1533
01:32:08,136 --> 01:32:09,920
Let me look into it.
1534
01:32:10,094 --> 01:32:11,835
But you shouldn'’t leave it
any longer.
1535
01:32:12,009 --> 01:32:13,533
I'’ve seen people get stuck.
1536
01:32:17,449 --> 01:32:19,408
I felt so good being here.
1537
01:32:20,583 --> 01:32:23,760
These kids,
they'’re teaching me a lot too.
1538
01:32:23,934 --> 01:32:26,241
That'’s how it goes sometimes.
1539
01:32:26,415 --> 01:32:28,373
It'’s been wonderful
having you here.
1540
01:32:28,548 --> 01:32:31,899
But the kids should be seeing
pictures of you on a wall,
1541
01:32:32,073 --> 01:32:34,031
not your face in a classroom.
1542
01:32:34,205 --> 01:32:36,381
It'’s time for you to fly,
1543
01:32:36,556 --> 01:32:39,080
so they see they can.
1544
01:32:42,257 --> 01:32:43,432
Okay.
1545
01:32:45,521 --> 01:32:47,175
[line ringing]
1546
01:32:52,397 --> 01:32:53,921
[phone ringing]
1547
01:32:54,095 --> 01:32:55,662
[speaking indistinctly]
1548
01:32:57,272 --> 01:32:59,448
[beeps][person answers in Portuguese]
1549
01:32:59,622 --> 01:33:01,189
[speaking Portuguese]
1550
01:33:03,408 --> 01:33:06,586
[person speaking Portuguese]
1551
01:33:10,285 --> 01:33:11,852
[Naya, Rob speaking Portuguese]
1552
01:33:14,115 --> 01:33:15,725
[Rob in English]
I wanna ask you something.
1553
01:33:15,899 --> 01:33:17,248
Okay.
1554
01:33:17,422 --> 01:33:19,424
I started applying
to grad schools again, and...
1555
01:33:21,339 --> 01:33:24,821
I can get a place in a program
with an enhanced
teaching requirement.
1556
01:33:24,995 --> 01:33:27,694
That'’s great, Rob.
That sounds perfect.
1557
01:33:28,956 --> 01:33:30,610
How would you feel about
coming to see me?
1558
01:33:30,784 --> 01:33:32,568
To grad school?
1559
01:33:32,742 --> 01:33:36,180
Yeah. You could study,
or you can work.
We'’ll figure it out.
1560
01:33:36,354 --> 01:33:38,530
So you want me to
just drop everything
and follow you?
1561
01:33:38,705 --> 01:33:41,621
No. What I'’m saying is
how about you tell me
a place you'’d like to visit?
1562
01:33:41,795 --> 01:33:44,841
I can see if there'’s a school
I can get into around there.
1563
01:33:46,930 --> 01:33:48,889
Okay, well, I'’ll tell you this.
1564
01:33:49,803 --> 01:33:52,196
If it came down to
Stanford or MIT,
1565
01:33:52,370 --> 01:33:55,069
I'’d definitely visit California
over Massachusetts.
1566
01:33:58,289 --> 01:33:59,900
California, it is.
1567
01:34:00,814 --> 01:34:01,858
[chuckles]
1568
01:34:03,904 --> 01:34:05,645
[handset settles in cradle]
1569
01:34:10,127 --> 01:34:11,389
Whoo!
1570
01:34:11,563 --> 01:34:13,348
It'’s gonna be in the back
over there.
1571
01:34:13,522 --> 01:34:15,393
I just put it in the back.
It'’s in the back porch,
all right?
1572
01:34:15,567 --> 01:34:17,961
Just go handle that for me.
I appreciate you, bro.
1573
01:34:18,135 --> 01:34:19,876
I spoke to him already.
He said it'’s done.
1574
01:34:20,050 --> 01:34:22,009
It'’s in the back porch.
Go get it.
1575
01:34:22,183 --> 01:34:23,140
Thank you.
1576
01:34:23,924 --> 01:34:25,752
That'’s it right there? Okay.
1577
01:34:26,491 --> 01:34:27,667
Let'’s see.
1578
01:34:35,065 --> 01:34:36,937
They'’re gonna need one
of those boards
around the corner.
1579
01:34:37,111 --> 01:34:38,199
- Rob?
- Yeah?
1580
01:34:38,373 --> 01:34:39,853
[speaking indistinctly]
1581
01:34:40,027 --> 01:34:41,202
[Rob]
Yeah, let'’s do it.
Let'’s go.
1582
01:34:41,376 --> 01:34:42,507
[Oswaldo] Yeah?
1583
01:34:43,595 --> 01:34:46,163
Good. Let'’s do it.[Rob] Thank you, man.
1584
01:34:46,337 --> 01:34:48,470
[announcer]
The Dow is down
a record amount.
1585
01:34:48,644 --> 01:34:52,430
Last week it gave up
a devastating 1,874 points.
1586
01:34:52,604 --> 01:34:55,042
The people that have the most
to worry about in this drop
1587
01:34:55,216 --> 01:34:57,609
are people that were
way overexposed to stocks
1588
01:34:57,784 --> 01:34:59,350
or overextended
in real estate.
1589
01:34:59,524 --> 01:35:01,439
[Rob] No! No! No!
Don'’t put me on hold again.
1590
01:35:01,613 --> 01:35:03,659
Fuck! Fuck!
1591
01:35:03,833 --> 01:35:06,009
Hey, what they sayin'’, man?
1592
01:35:06,183 --> 01:35:09,491
They'’re sayin'’
we owe over $200,000,
and they'’re not fucking around.
1593
01:35:09,665 --> 01:35:12,929
So what? Everything'’s gone?
This place is worthless now?
1594
01:35:14,322 --> 01:35:15,627
But hey, look, look, look,
1595
01:35:15,802 --> 01:35:17,804
all the properties
are gonna be going down now.
1596
01:35:17,978 --> 01:35:20,197
So we should buy more properties
and dig ourselves out.
1597
01:35:20,371 --> 01:35:22,112
How?
They froze the loans, man.
1598
01:35:22,286 --> 01:35:23,810
Because of what?
Because of subprime?
1599
01:35:23,984 --> 01:35:24,985
Fuck!
1600
01:35:27,161 --> 01:35:29,293
[Tav breathing heavily]
1601
01:35:30,991 --> 01:35:33,384
I put everything into this, Rob!
Everything!
1602
01:35:35,778 --> 01:35:39,086
Now, I have nothing left
for my son. [crying]
1603
01:35:39,260 --> 01:35:42,350
We'’ll--
We'’ll figure it out. We...
1604
01:35:42,524 --> 01:35:45,701
[announcer]
...a financial storm
that seems to darken every day.
1605
01:35:50,053 --> 01:35:51,838
[crying]
1606
01:35:56,538 --> 01:35:58,018
[Rob]
The financial collapse in '’08
1607
01:35:58,192 --> 01:36:01,064
devastated the neighborhood
all over again.
1608
01:36:03,675 --> 01:36:06,809
It felt, like, no matter
how many variables
were controlled for,
1609
01:36:08,289 --> 01:36:11,379
chaos was always waiting.
1610
01:36:29,571 --> 01:36:30,659
[door opens]
1611
01:36:31,747 --> 01:36:34,010
Hey. I'’m sorry to bother you,
Mr. Tucker.
1612
01:36:34,184 --> 01:36:37,057
Shaun Peace.
You knew my dad, Skeet Douglas.
1613
01:36:37,231 --> 01:36:39,015
Yeah. I remember you, Shaun.
1614
01:36:39,189 --> 01:36:41,278
I saw the sign out there,
and I...
1615
01:36:42,410 --> 01:36:45,630
This house was in my family
for a long time.
1616
01:36:45,805 --> 01:36:48,372
I, uh-- I just wanna know
what'’s gonna happen to it.
1617
01:36:48,546 --> 01:36:50,940
[Tucker] Once we paid
all the back taxes on the place
1618
01:36:51,114 --> 01:36:52,681
and done some renovating,
1619
01:36:52,855 --> 01:36:55,684
we refinanced for the first time
and sent Skeet some money.
1620
01:36:55,858 --> 01:36:59,340
Not much,
but we did our best
to help him out.
1621
01:36:59,514 --> 01:37:01,298
Thank you.
1622
01:37:01,472 --> 01:37:05,607
He thought
we'’d abandoned him
at the trial.
1623
01:37:05,781 --> 01:37:08,262
I guess everybody did
in the end.
1624
01:37:08,436 --> 01:37:10,873
It'’s crazy what they can do
to an innocent man.
1625
01:37:11,047 --> 01:37:14,050
We were really proud of you
finding that loophole,
1626
01:37:14,224 --> 01:37:16,096
getting him out
that first time.
1627
01:37:16,270 --> 01:37:18,141
Wh-- What makes you so sure...
1628
01:37:20,361 --> 01:37:23,581
that he was... innocent?
1629
01:37:39,728 --> 01:37:42,470
[Tucker] I mean,
it'’s not exculpatory evidence
or whatever,
1630
01:37:42,644 --> 01:37:46,474
just photographs,
but that was your father'’s gun.
1631
01:37:46,648 --> 01:37:48,432
I knew it pretty well.
1632
01:37:48,606 --> 01:37:51,740
After the fire, Skeet kept it
inside the basement door here.
1633
01:37:51,914 --> 01:37:55,309
There was rust all over it.
I don'’t think
it could even shoot.
1634
01:37:55,483 --> 01:37:58,747
The gun
the police came up with
was bullshit.
1635
01:37:58,921 --> 01:38:00,270
They wanted
to close the case.
1636
01:38:01,358 --> 01:38:04,361
And after Irving died,
they could.
1637
01:38:05,362 --> 01:38:07,277
We couldn'’t say anything
in court.
1638
01:38:08,017 --> 01:38:10,324
I'’d been doing stupid shit.
1639
01:38:10,498 --> 01:38:12,979
Police were on me
all the time,
making threats,
1640
01:38:13,153 --> 01:38:14,981
even death threats.
1641
01:38:15,155 --> 01:38:18,071
Finally, we stepped back.
Only thing we could do.
1642
01:38:18,245 --> 01:38:20,987
Your mother never knew whether
to tell you about it back then.
1643
01:38:22,466 --> 01:38:27,384
I guess we all decided
it'’d do more harm than good.
1644
01:38:39,962 --> 01:38:41,137
[door opens]
1645
01:38:45,663 --> 01:38:46,751
You okay?
1646
01:38:50,016 --> 01:38:52,148
I spoke to
Michael and Sheila Tucker.
1647
01:38:55,760 --> 01:38:57,110
Why didn'’t you tell me?
1648
01:38:58,459 --> 01:39:00,852
- Why did you hate him so much?
- I didn'’t hate him at all.
1649
01:39:01,027 --> 01:39:02,724
You let me think he was guilty.
1650
01:39:02,898 --> 01:39:04,465
That'’s not true.
I never said that, not once.
1651
01:39:04,639 --> 01:39:06,423
He died thinking
I walked away from him.
1652
01:39:06,597 --> 01:39:08,295
I couldn'’t get him out, Shaun!
1653
01:39:08,469 --> 01:39:10,340
No matter what I did,
the Tuckers
were never gonna testify.
1654
01:39:10,514 --> 01:39:12,212
But why didn'’t you tell me?
1655
01:39:12,386 --> 01:39:14,344
Because the little bit of doubt
you always had about your father
1656
01:39:14,518 --> 01:39:16,346
was the only reason
you pushed back against him.
1657
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:17,739
- Ma!
- It was.
1658
01:39:17,913 --> 01:39:19,741
God help me,
I loved that man.
1659
01:39:19,915 --> 01:39:22,526
But he would watch you
burn to the ground
trying to get him out.
1660
01:39:22,700 --> 01:39:24,876
Now, maybe he was innocent.
I still don'’t know.
1661
01:39:25,051 --> 01:39:28,402
But I had a choice
to believe in you or him.
1662
01:39:28,576 --> 01:39:29,664
And I chose.
1663
01:39:29,838 --> 01:39:31,144
It wasn'’t your choice to make.
1664
01:39:31,318 --> 01:39:32,406
Yes, it was.
1665
01:40:53,052 --> 01:40:54,575
Don'’t do this.
1666
01:40:55,532 --> 01:40:56,664
I'’m begging you.
1667
01:40:56,838 --> 01:40:58,666
I'’m not
letting anybody else down.
1668
01:40:58,840 --> 01:41:01,451
You need to loan us $10,000
to make some real moves.
1669
01:41:01,625 --> 01:41:04,106
[scoffs]
And we'’re in the clear.
1670
01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:06,804
We buy 50 pounds of bulk weed
from the connect in Florida,
1671
01:41:06,978 --> 01:41:09,024
convert it downstairs,
1672
01:41:09,198 --> 01:41:10,721
serve it in the streets.
1673
01:41:10,895 --> 01:41:13,202
That'’s a 2,000% return.
1674
01:41:13,768 --> 01:41:15,770
400K at least.
1675
01:41:15,944 --> 01:41:18,729
We pay everybody back,
split the rest,
and we out of the hood.
1676
01:41:18,903 --> 01:41:20,340
Or you could just walk away.
1677
01:41:20,514 --> 01:41:23,473
I tried that already, Oswaldo.
It doesn'’t work.
1678
01:41:24,257 --> 01:41:26,476
Six weeks, and I pay you back.
1679
01:41:26,650 --> 01:41:27,912
Six weeks.
1680
01:41:28,870 --> 01:41:31,655
Then it'’s grad school,
normal life.
1681
01:41:33,570 --> 01:41:35,877
How you gonna do all this, Rob?
1682
01:41:36,051 --> 01:41:38,793
We just gonna sell
under the noses of
all the gangs in New Jersey?

I'’ll just take it back this way.
All right. I got you.

I thought
you can handle a lot.

To whom it may concern,

Science is my passion.

the complex systems

in my life.

[Rob] I believe these

that St. Benedict'’s

The pursuit
of excellence?

Why do we pursue it

that we are all flawed?

There is no excellence.

There is no flawlessness.

It'’s not excellence
