I know what you're thinking,
and I didn't do it.

00:00:42,542 --> 00:00:45,295
But as any political
journalist can tell you,
3
00:00:45,295 --> 00:00:50,133
these days, the truth is
whatever you want to believe.
4
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:53,052
So here's my truth...
5
00:00:53,052 --> 00:00:55,054

Yeah, oh, my God, of course!
13
00:01:12,614 --> 00:01:15,825
Yeah, I get into Iowa
late tonight.
14
00:01:15,825 --> 00:01:18,161
Yeah, well,
I still have to pack.
15
00:01:18,161 --> 00:01:20,705
What--I'm gonna make it.
16
00:01:20,705 --> 00:01:22,207
I always make it.

The Bennett campaign flew
her Yorkie first-class?
18
00:01:25,877 --> 00:01:27,378
Did it have its own seat?
19
00:01:27,378 --> 00:01:29,798
I gotta use--can I use that?
20
00:01:29,798 --> 00:01:31,800
Oh, I gotta--
I'll call you back.
21
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,092
Bye.
22
00:01:33,092 --> 00:01:34,928
Hello?
- McCarthy!
23
00:01:34,928 --> 00:01:36,679
You will never get another
interview with the Speaker.
24
00:01:36,679 --> 00:01:39,474
Josh, Josh, Josh,
if you would let me talk...
25
00:01:39,474 --> 00:01:41,434
well, you read my profiles.
26
00:01:41,434 --> 00:01:42,852
What did you expect?
27
00:01:42,852 --> 00:01:44,854
Sadie McCarthy.
Oh, hey, yeah.
28
00:01:44,854 --> 00:01:47,190
Do you think I could go
boxing with Caroline,
29
00:01:47,190 --> 00:01:50,527
and it's sort of a metaphor
for her role as governor?
30
00:01:50,527 --> 00:01:51,861
No, it was--
- Sadie.
31
00:01:51,861 --> 00:01:53,196
I know.
32
00:01:53,196 --> 00:01:54,364
I know, but no one's gonna
cover the--
33
00:01:54,364 --> 00:01:55,990
McCarthy.
34
00:01:55,990 --> 00:01:57,659
Come see me.
35
00:01:57,659 --> 00:01:59,953
Listen, I have
to call you back.
36
00:01:59,953 --> 00:02:02,914
It won't be long. Bye.
37
00:02:04,123 --> 00:02:06,543
It's happening, Hunter.

Oh, hey.
41
00:02:18,638 --> 00:02:20,765
I'm putting you
on the old man's bus.
42
00:02:20,765 --> 00:02:24,727
- What? Are you--what--why?
- No, I know, I know.
43
00:02:24,727 --> 00:02:27,063
You want Caroline Bennett.
- Uh, yeah.
44
00:02:27,063 --> 00:02:29,732
She's the front-runner,
and I spent months
45
00:02:29,732 --> 00:02:32,193
buttering up all of my contacts
inside her campaign.
46
00:02:32,193 --> 00:02:34,070
Well, I've already
assigned Dale.

Fuck Dale!

00:02:35,446 --> 00:02:38,700
Look, I really need you
covering the old man.
49
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:40,451
Only you could find
a fresh angle.
50
00:02:40,451 --> 00:02:42,912
I mean, you see things
that other reporters don't see.
51
00:02:42,912 --> 00:02:46,583
So you're punishing me
for being good at my job.

No. No.
53
00:02:49,168 --> 00:02:52,005
No, the newsroom brass
is still burned.
54
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:54,090
They worry
that you live and write
55
00:02:54,090 --> 00:02:57,427
in a more... emotional space.
56
00:02:57,427 --> 00:02:59,804
That is such bullshit!
57
00:02:59,804 --> 00:03:02,891
Felicity Walker.
58
00:03:02,891 --> 00:03:05,184
What about her?
59
00:03:05,184 --> 00:03:07,353
Aside from the fact that she
should be president right now.
60
00:03:07,353 --> 00:03:09,105
- See? See? There it is.
- I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
61
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,441
Come on!
Look, you wanted her to win,
62
00:03:11,441 --> 00:03:13,526
and it showed in your work.
63
00:03:13,526 --> 00:03:15,069
Hell, it showed on television.
64
00:03:15,069 --> 00:03:17,614
I mean,
your crying became a meme.
65
00:03:17,614 --> 00:03:18,948
I don't think that--
66
00:03:18,948 --> 00:03:21,159
The media is under attack.
67
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:24,829
We cannot show
even a hint of bias.
68
00:03:24,829 --> 00:03:30,335
Sadie, you're a great writer,
but you lead with your heart.
69
00:03:30,335 --> 00:03:32,921
And we need you
to lead with your head.
70
00:03:32,921 --> 00:03:35,632
Well, Hunter S. Thompson
didn't just write what he saw.
71
00:03:35,632 --> 00:03:37,634
He wrote how he felt.
72
00:03:37,634 --> 00:03:40,136
He found a deeper truth,
73
00:03:40,136 --> 00:03:41,804
which is what made him
a legend.
74
00:03:41,804 --> 00:03:44,474
You gotta stop romanticizing
"The Boys on the Bus."
75
00:03:44,474 --> 00:03:48,478
Hunter S. Thompson was a legend
in 1973.
76
00:03:48,478 --> 00:03:51,773
Today, he would be
an HR crisis.
77
00:03:56,235 --> 00:03:57,862
Bruce.
78
00:03:57,862 --> 00:04:00,239
It was my first time
on the trail.
79
00:04:01,616 --> 00:04:04,243
You gotta give me
another chance.
80
00:04:08,831 --> 00:04:12,043
If I could assure my bosses
that you have changed
81
00:04:12,043 --> 00:04:14,462
and get you assigned
to Bennett...
82
00:04:14,462 --> 00:04:16,005
Yes?
83
00:04:16,005 --> 00:04:18,675
You have to prove
that you can write objectively.
84
00:04:18,675 --> 00:04:20,134
Okay.
85
00:04:20,134 --> 00:04:22,178
And--and you have to land
the first interview.
86
00:04:22,178 --> 00:04:23,429
Done.
87
00:04:23,429 --> 00:04:25,473
Yes. Okay. All right.
88
00:04:27,392 --> 00:04:28,810
You're not gonna regret this.
89
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:34,524
Why this obsession
with politics?
90
00:04:34,524 --> 00:04:36,567
I love what you've been
writing lately.
91
00:04:36,567 --> 00:04:38,945
That obit you did
on the Central Park duck?
92
00:04:38,945 --> 00:04:41,364
I mean, that's a masterpiece.
93
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:42,740
That.
94
00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:44,784
That was good.
95
00:04:44,784 --> 00:04:46,869
But this is a chance
at the White House.
96
00:04:46,869 --> 00:04:48,204
You said that the last time.
97
00:04:48,204 --> 00:04:49,914
The road is my home.
98
00:04:49,914 --> 00:04:53,710
Oh, okay, Jack Kerouac.
99
00:04:53,710 --> 00:04:56,879
Try to make more than
one friend this time, okay?
100
00:04:56,879 --> 00:05:00,383
They're not my friends.
They're the competition.
101
00:05:00,383 --> 00:05:01,968
{\an8}All right, y'all.
102
00:05:01,968 --> 00:05:03,219
{\an8}I got my gummies.
103

{\an8}I got my headphones.
104
00:05:04,387 --> 00:05:07,223
{\an8}I got my ring lights.
105
00:05:07,223 --> 00:05:09,767
{\an8}Tell me, am I forgetting
something important?
106
00:05:11,477 --> 00:05:14,439
{\an8}Going once, going twice.
107
00:05:14,439 --> 00:05:17,358
{\an8}Damn.
108
00:05:17,358 --> 00:05:19,694
How could I forget? Ah!
109
00:05:19,694 --> 00:05:22,447
Could y'all imagine
if I had forgotten
110
00:05:22,447 --> 00:05:23,698
my best little friend?
111
00:05:23,698 --> 00:05:24,907
Ahh!
112
00:05:24,907 --> 00:05:26,409
{\an8}Thank you, thank you.
113
00:05:26,409 --> 00:05:29,287
{\an8}All right, y'all,
first up is Iowa.
114
00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:32,165
Let's do this.
115
00:05:42,633 --> 00:05:45,720
Okay. What am I forgetting?
116
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,597
- Power heels.
- Check.
117
00:05:47,597 --> 00:05:49,932
- Passion planner.
- Ooh, thank you.

Hi, Sam. Two Yellowtails.

00:07:20,898 --> 00:07:22,233
Oh, I guess.
149
00:07:22,233 --> 00:07:23,526
Why not?
150
00:07:23,526 --> 00:07:26,362
So Bruce let you
out of the rubber room
151
00:07:26,362 --> 00:07:27,738
after your meltdown.
152
00:07:27,738 --> 00:07:29,240
Bruce didn't seem
too concerned.
153
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,075
Thanks.
I just had to promise him
154
00:07:31,075 --> 00:07:33,536
that this time around,
I'm going to remain detached,
155
00:07:33,536 --> 00:07:37,123
objective, and mostly sober.
156
00:07:39,041 --> 00:07:41,711
So who are you assigned to?
157
00:07:41,711 --> 00:07:43,087
Caroline Bennett.
158
00:07:43,087 --> 00:07:44,881
She reformed public schools
as a governor.
159
00:07:44,881 --> 00:07:46,340
She has a military background.
160
00:07:46,340 --> 00:07:48,676
Oh, and she publishes
161
00:07:48,676 --> 00:07:50,887
murder mystery novels
under a pseudonym.
162
00:07:50,887 --> 00:07:52,346
She could be the real deal.
163
00:07:52,346 --> 00:07:54,140
- You sound really detached.
- Oh, stop.
164
00:07:54,140 --> 00:07:56,601
And don't you worry about me.
165
00:07:56,601 --> 00:07:58,644
I have learned my lesson.
166
00:07:58,644 --> 00:08:00,730
I just need to get that
first interview with Bennett,
167
00:08:00,730 --> 00:08:03,357
and then I will be back
in Bruce's good graces.
168
00:08:03,357 --> 00:08:06,402
This scoop, if you actually
want to call it that, Abby,
169
00:08:06,402 --> 00:08:09,238
entirely misses what's
really going on in this race.
170
00:08:09,238 --> 00:08:10,990
He's shitting
on your reporting again.
171
00:08:10,990 --> 00:08:12,325
Why does he do that?
172
00:08:12,325 --> 00:08:14,493
Ugh, fuck him.
173
00:08:14,493 --> 00:08:17,330
Who cares what that dinosaur
has to say anymore?
174
00:08:21,083 --> 00:08:22,043
Christ.
175
00:08:22,043 --> 00:08:24,045
The Right has arrived.
176
00:08:31,344 --> 00:08:33,262
- Oh, God.
- Absolutely, Nellie.
177
00:08:33,262 --> 00:08:35,264
I know you want that job
as much as I do.
178
00:08:35,264 --> 00:08:36,682
Whatever happens happens.
179
00:08:36,682 --> 00:08:39,060
I heard Nellie Carmichael
had her makeup

00:08:39,060 --> 00:08:40,228
tattooed to her face.
181
00:08:40,228 --> 00:08:41,729
What did you say?
182
00:08:41,729 --> 00:08:43,439
She said she heard
your makeup has been
183
00:08:43,439 --> 00:08:44,690
tattooed to your face.
184
00:08:44,690 --> 00:08:46,275
Speaking of makeup,
185
00:08:46,275 --> 00:08:49,111
I hope your mascara's
waterproof this cycle, Sadie.
186
00:08:49,111 --> 00:08:51,405
That was
three years ago, Nellie.
187
00:08:51,405 --> 00:08:53,533
John Edwards lived down
a love child faster than this.
188
00:08:53,533 --> 00:08:54,825
Kay?
- Don't engage.
189
00:08:54,825 --> 00:08:56,285
Don't engage.
- Uh-huh.
190
00:08:56,285 --> 00:08:59,664
I'll be right back.
191
00:08:59,664 --> 00:09:01,749
Yo, hook me up with a Pabst.
192
00:09:04,418 --> 00:09:06,796
It's Lola, right?
193
00:09:06,796 --> 00:09:10,216
Hi. I'm--I'm Sadie McCarthy.
194
00:09:10,216 --> 00:09:11,759
I love your Instagram.
195
00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:13,636
I feel like--
I feel like I know you.
196
00:09:14,637 --> 00:09:15,721
You don't know me.
197
00:09:15,721 --> 00:09:17,306
But thanks.
198
00:09:24,146 --> 00:09:27,400
Ah, Iowa,
199
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:28,818
where, every four years,
200
00:09:28,818 --> 00:09:30,152
the political universe
descends,
201
00:09:30,152 --> 00:09:31,988
so that 300,000 Iowans
202
00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:33,823
can determine the future
of our democracy.
203
00:09:35,283 --> 00:09:37,743
The first contest
in our nation.
204
00:09:37,743 --> 00:09:41,664
Sometimes, it's so close,
they have to toss a coin.
205
00:09:41,664 --> 00:09:43,332
Let that thought sink in.
206
00:09:43,332 --> 00:09:48,504
Some may never live,
but the crazy never die.
207
00:09:56,804 --> 00:09:58,097
Three, two...
208
00:09:58,097 --> 00:10:00,016
♪ This body isn't mine ♪
209
00:10:00,016 --> 00:10:02,310
♪ But I got a heart of gold ♪
210
00:10:02,310 --> 00:10:05,104
Yo, I'm at this
chicken wing buffet,
211
00:10:05,104 --> 00:10:07,481
AKA the Coachella
of the caucuses.
212
00:10:07,481 --> 00:10:09,317
This is the first big stop
for all the candidates
213
00:10:09,317 --> 00:10:10,860
who are trying
to win our votes,
214
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:14,822
although you already know
who has my heart.
215
00:10:14,822 --> 00:10:17,616
This woman right here
convinced me
216
00:10:17,616 --> 00:10:19,285
politics is not
just for boomers.
217
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:20,620
Y'all want to defund the police
218
00:10:20,620 --> 00:10:22,204
and finally stand up
to the gun lobby?
219
00:10:22,204 --> 00:10:23,706
She's our girl.
220
00:10:23,706 --> 00:10:25,374
You have my credit card
and my private account.
221
00:10:25,374 --> 00:10:28,544
What else
could you possibly need?
222
00:10:28,544 --> 00:10:30,713
Yeah, I--I gotta go.
223
00:10:30,713 --> 00:10:32,131
What was that about?
224
00:10:32,131 --> 00:10:33,883
Annie wants me
to drive her to college.
225
00:10:33,883 --> 00:10:36,552
She's got major anxiety about
transferring mid-semester.
226
00:10:36,552 --> 00:10:38,763
Freshman year is
kind of a rite of passage.
227
00:10:38,763 --> 00:10:40,973
So is the HPV vaccine.
228
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:42,641
Don't have kids.
229
00:10:42,641 --> 00:10:44,101
It never ends with them.
230
00:10:44,101 --> 00:10:45,144
Surprise, surprise.
231
00:10:45,144 --> 00:10:46,812
No vegan options.
232
00:10:46,812 --> 00:10:48,397
Good thing I always roll
with a backup.
233
00:10:48,397 --> 00:10:50,441
Use my discount code LOLA
for 10% off,
234
00:10:50,441 --> 00:10:53,778
and subscribe to my newsletter
for more nutrition tips.
235
00:10:53,778 --> 00:10:55,654
What the hell is she doing?
236
00:10:55,654 --> 00:10:58,074
She's paying her way
through sponsored content
237
00:10:58,074 --> 00:11:00,534
and an advance from Substack.
238
00:11:00,534 --> 00:11:04,205
Behold, the brave new world
of campaign reporting.
239
00:11:04,205 --> 00:11:05,915
Making herself
a discount code
240
00:11:05,915 --> 00:11:07,917
while promoting
the socialist candidate?
241
00:11:07,917 --> 00:11:09,251
That's fucking hypocrisy.
242
00:11:09,251 --> 00:11:10,920
Does she know anything
about journalism?
243
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,922
Doesn't matter.
She has more Twitter followers
244
00:11:12,922 --> 00:11:14,673
than "The Washington Post."
245
00:11:14,673 --> 00:11:16,592
I remember when you actually
had to be employed
246
00:11:16,592 --> 00:11:18,427
by a legitimate news outlet.
247
00:11:18,427 --> 00:11:20,638
And I remember when teenagers
didn't become household names
248
00:11:20,638 --> 00:11:22,181
for surviving a mass shooting.
249
00:11:22,181 --> 00:11:24,558
Fair.
250
00:11:24,558 --> 00:11:26,852
This business is dying.
251
00:11:38,155 --> 00:11:39,657
Want me to plug you in?
252
00:11:39,657 --> 00:11:41,492
Gotta jump.
See you on the bus.
253
00:11:41,492 --> 00:11:42,952
You've got scoop.
254
00:11:42,952 --> 00:11:44,787
That's your scoop face. Spill.
255
00:11:44,787 --> 00:11:47,832
You'll find out
when the world does.
256
00:11:53,796 --> 00:11:57,466
Okay, okay.
257
00:12:21,157 --> 00:12:24,160
With politics having
descended into one endless,
258
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,288
horrific reality show,
isn't the presidential primary
259
00:12:27,288 --> 00:12:31,333
just a higher-stakes version
of "The Bachelor"?
260
00:12:31,333 --> 00:12:34,628
{\an8}The Geriatric,
the ultimate elder statesman.
261
00:12:34,628 --> 00:12:38,424
{\an8}Former CIA director
and Secretary of State.
262
00:12:38,424 --> 00:12:40,759
{\an8}The Action Star,
who joined the race
263
00:12:40,759 --> 00:12:44,805
{\an8}after a Twitter poll came out
saying that 46% of Americans
264
00:12:44,805 --> 00:12:47,892
{\an8}would vote for him regardless
of party affiliation.
265
00:12:47,892 --> 00:12:51,103
{\an8}The Freshman, who has made
our entire political system
266
00:12:51,103 --> 00:12:52,771
{\an8}seem accessible
to the everyman
267
00:12:52,771 --> 00:12:56,775
{\an8}or, as she'd say, everyperson.
268
00:12:56,775 --> 00:12:58,527
{\an8}Let's call him the...
269
00:12:58,527 --> 00:13:00,112
{\an8}the Hot White Guy.
270
00:13:00,112 --> 00:13:02,406
{\an8}Because this
little-known Kansas mayor
271
00:13:02,406 --> 00:13:05,034
{\an8}could actually be
the Bachelor.
272
00:13:05,034 --> 00:13:06,785
{\an8}But he's polling dead last.
273
00:13:09,246 --> 00:13:10,748
{\an8}The Front-Runner.
274
00:13:10,748 --> 00:13:12,875
{\an8}Caroline Bennett has
the military vote
275
00:13:12,875 --> 00:13:16,170
{\an8}and writes mystery novels
under a pseudonym.
276
00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:17,713
Yeah, I dig it.
277
00:13:17,713 --> 00:13:20,216
It's fun, sassy,
278
00:13:20,216 --> 00:13:23,969
and not at all what your editor
asked you to write.
279
00:13:23,969 --> 00:13:27,097
Fuck him.
280
00:13:27,097 --> 00:13:29,225
Shit.
281
00:13:35,064 --> 00:13:37,149
Excuse me,
I'm Kimberlyn Kendrick
282
00:13:37,149 --> 00:13:38,817
with Liberty--
- No, thanks.
283
00:13:40,319 --> 00:13:41,737
- Excuse me.
- Ugh.
284
00:13:41,737 --> 00:13:43,531
I'm Kimberlyn Kendrick
with Liberty Direct News.
285
00:13:43,531 --> 00:13:45,324
I was hoping I could ask you
a couple of questions.
286
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:47,076
I have a question for you.
287
00:13:47,076 --> 00:13:49,620
How do you sleep at night?
288
00:13:49,620 --> 00:13:51,914
Like a baby
in a satin bonnet,
289
00:13:51,914 --> 00:13:53,666
as secure as a Reagan economy.
290
00:13:53,666 --> 00:13:56,252
Thank you.
291
00:14:00,381 --> 00:14:01,549
Hey.
292
00:14:01,549 --> 00:14:03,592
How does
a Labor Day wedding sound?
293
00:14:03,592 --> 00:14:04,635
Too close to the general.
294
00:14:04,635 --> 00:14:05,678
Christmas weekend?
295
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:07,096
My father will kill me
296
00:14:07,096 --> 00:14:08,389
if we compete
with his Christmas.
297
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:10,015
I was thinking summer,
298
00:14:10,015 --> 00:14:12,309
sometime after the primaries
but before the convention.
299
00:14:12,309 --> 00:14:14,019
And by "I'm thinking,"
you mean...
300
00:14:14,019 --> 00:14:16,230
I've already pinned
two possible venues.
301
00:14:16,230 --> 00:14:17,940
Virtual tours are
on our shared calendar,
302
00:14:17,940 --> 00:14:19,275
but I can't talk right now.
303
00:14:19,275 --> 00:14:20,859
If I'm gonna be
the next Gayle King,
304
00:14:20,859 --> 00:14:22,820
I've got to land that promotion
and get on POTUS.
305
00:14:22,820 --> 00:14:24,947
You will,
and Nellie Carmichael will be
306
00:14:24,947 --> 00:14:26,532
dust in your rearview mirror.
307
00:14:26,532 --> 00:14:27,950
Stop that.
Nellie's my friend.
308
00:14:27,950 --> 00:14:29,743
I root for her.
She roots for me.
309
00:14:29,743 --> 00:14:31,954
And I am rooting for you.
310
00:14:31,954 --> 00:14:34,290
I gotta go.
311
00:14:34,290 --> 00:14:36,584
We can never let our hearts
turn to stone,
312
00:14:36,584 --> 00:14:38,711
and we can never let things
fall apart so much
313
00:14:38,711 --> 00:14:40,337
that we cannot create a center,
314
00:14:40,337 --> 00:14:42,214
where the future
of our children counts
315
00:14:42,214 --> 00:14:43,799
more than the scars
of our past.
316
00:14:43,799 --> 00:14:46,510
These days,
it's easy to lack conviction,
317
00:14:46,510 --> 00:14:49,221
to go into our corners
and slander our enemies.
318
00:14:49,221 --> 00:14:52,850
But America works better
when we confront them,
319
00:14:52,850 --> 00:14:55,728
when we accept
that building a future
320
00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:57,146
is not a God-given right.
321
00:14:57,146 --> 00:14:59,023
It's work.
322
00:14:59,023 --> 00:15:00,649
It's obligation.
323
00:15:00,649 --> 00:15:01,859
It's duty.
324
00:15:03,652 --> 00:15:05,321
"Democratic
presidential candidates
325
00:15:05,321 --> 00:15:07,448
"threw jabs at Republicans
and each other
326
00:15:07,448 --> 00:15:09,366
"at the annual
Cluck into the Caucuses
327
00:15:09,366 --> 00:15:10,659
fundraising dinner."
328
00:15:10,659 --> 00:15:13,329
Why are you reading me
back to me?
329
00:15:13,329 --> 00:15:14,830
"Throwing jabs"--
330
00:15:14,830 --> 00:15:17,708
I'm just confirming,
that's what you meant to send?
331
00:15:19,043 --> 00:15:20,502
Is there something wrong
with it?
332
00:15:20,502 --> 00:15:24,840
It's okay,
in a clichéd Politico way.
333
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,383
It just doesn't have
your normal color.
334
00:15:26,383 --> 00:15:28,594
Yes, but I don't do color
anymore, you see,
335
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:30,679
because I am
an objective newsman.
336
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:33,349
I am above personal opinions
and basic hygiene.
337
00:15:33,349 --> 00:15:35,100
Where are we
with the Bennett interview?
338
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,518
I have some calls out.
339
00:15:36,518 --> 00:15:37,853
Look, I told you
340
00:15:37,853 --> 00:15:39,605
that if you want to prove
to the masthead
341
00:15:39,605 --> 00:15:42,274
that you deserve to be back,
you gotta get there first.
342
00:15:42,274 --> 00:15:44,693
Remember, you're on thin ice.
- Yeah. Yeah.
343
00:15:44,693 --> 00:15:45,986
I can do that.
344
00:15:45,986 --> 00:15:47,321
Jamie loves me.
345
00:15:47,321 --> 00:15:48,739
I wrote
her great-grandfather's obit.
346
00:15:48,739 --> 00:15:50,783
Yeah, well,
Jamie had a breakdown
347
00:15:50,783 --> 00:15:52,576
and opened a country store
in Cobble Hill.
348
00:15:52,576 --> 00:15:54,995
- What?
- D.C. is hearing
349
00:15:54,995 --> 00:15:58,707
that Bennett just poached
a new press secretary.
350
00:15:58,707 --> 00:16:00,042
Go through him.
- Fine.
351
00:16:00,042 --> 00:16:01,919
Who is it?
- Some guy named--
352
00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:03,921
♪ Big boy pants
'cause my pockets is thick ♪
353
00:16:03,921 --> 00:16:05,798
♪ Hello Kitty keychain

354
00:16:05,798 --> 00:16:07,591
♪ Got a big boy bag,
got a big boy drip ♪
355

Loafers?
372
00:16:35,744 --> 00:16:37,204
You've gotta be kidding me.
373
00:16:37,204 --> 00:16:39,832
I wish I was.
374
00:16:39,832 --> 00:16:42,084
And I can't tell Bruce.
375
00:16:42,084 --> 00:16:43,752
If he finds out,
he'll pull me off Bennett,
376
00:16:43,752 --> 00:16:46,588
and I really, really need
to prove myself.
377
00:16:46,588 --> 00:16:48,507
How did your ex go
from bagman
378
00:16:48,507 --> 00:16:49,967
to press secretary
in one cycle?
379
00:16:49,967 --> 00:16:51,969
"Ex" is a bold term.
380
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:55,097
And he always was
an ambition monster.
381
00:16:55,097 --> 00:16:56,765
And how did it end
between you two?
382
00:16:56,765 --> 00:16:58,517
Bad enough that I can
definitely see him
383
00:16:58,517 --> 00:17:00,894
cockblocking my interview,
which, you know,
384
00:17:00,894 --> 00:17:03,439
my entire career
and livelihood are resting on.
385
00:17:03,439 --> 00:17:04,898
Skip it.
386
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:08,527
There's better stories
out there than Bennett.
387
00:17:08,527 --> 00:17:10,487
Where are you right now?
388
00:17:10,487 --> 00:17:11,822
I'm drinking alone.
389
00:17:11,822 --> 00:17:14,032
In Chicago
with Charlie and Annie.
390
00:17:14,032 --> 00:17:15,909
I caved.
- Hey, Sadie.
391
00:17:15,909 --> 00:17:18,996
Oh, good for you.
Hi, Annie.
392
00:17:18,996 --> 00:17:21,165
She's been gone or on
the phone all day, Sadie.
393
00:17:21,165 --> 00:17:22,541
Dad and I did all the work.
394
00:17:22,541 --> 00:17:23,625
Hello.
395
00:17:23,625 --> 00:17:25,753
Are these my bras I'm folding?
396
00:17:25,753 --> 00:17:27,379
I take it your tip
didn't pan out?
397
00:17:27,379 --> 00:17:28,922
Find another story.
398
00:17:28,922 --> 00:17:31,467
And for the last time,
what's my number one rule?
399
00:17:31,467 --> 00:17:32,843
both: Don't fuck the flack.
400
00:17:32,843 --> 00:17:34,261
My mother,
ladies and gentlemen.
401
00:17:34,261 --> 00:17:36,263
- I gotta go.
402
00:17:39,183 --> 00:17:40,476
Hello, Charles.
403
00:17:40,476 --> 00:17:42,853
Harry.
404
00:17:42,853 --> 00:17:45,189
- Grandpa!
- Sweetie pie!
405
00:17:47,566 --> 00:17:49,318
Hi, Dad.
406
00:18:03,081 --> 00:18:05,626
Hey. Hey there. Hey.
407
00:18:05,626 --> 00:18:09,004
- Oh.
408
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:12,341
So, uh, what are the odds
409
00:18:12,341 --> 00:18:15,594
that you'd give me the first
interview with Bennett?
410
00:18:15,594 --> 00:18:18,138
Run it on the front,
Sunday edition.
411
00:18:18,138 --> 00:18:19,473
Sadie.
412
00:18:19,473 --> 00:18:22,768
If I was drowning
in a tsunami of cow shit,
413
00:18:22,768 --> 00:18:26,063
and you were the only one
with a lifeboat and Febreze,
414
00:18:26,063 --> 00:18:27,397
I would not give this to you.
415
00:18:27,397 --> 00:18:30,901
That's funny.
416
00:18:30,901 --> 00:18:32,528
So you're still mad?
417
00:18:32,528 --> 00:18:35,197
- It was--how long ago was it?
418
00:18:35,197 --> 00:18:36,698
Three years?
- Yeah, three years.
419
00:18:36,698 --> 00:18:38,283
Three years ago,
and you know what, I seem
420
00:18:38,283 --> 00:18:40,035
to remember you being the one
that always said,
421
00:18:40,035 --> 00:18:41,662
what happens on the road
stays on the road.
422
00:18:41,662 --> 00:18:43,080
Did I?
423
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,040
You know, I think I was
referring to Jell-O shots
424
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,042
in Milwaukee when I said that,
425
00:18:47,042 --> 00:18:48,961
not our entire relationship.
426
00:18:48,961 --> 00:18:51,171
Relation--see,
I don't think I realized
427
00:18:51,171 --> 00:18:52,923
we were in
a full-on relationship.
428
00:18:55,134 --> 00:18:57,010
You haven't changed one bit.
429
00:18:57,010 --> 00:18:58,887
Yeah, well,
we could have talked about it,
430
00:18:58,887 --> 00:19:00,848
if you hadn't hopped
on an Acela and fled to D.C.
431
00:19:00,848 --> 00:19:02,182
You know,
it was a Delta shuttle.
432
00:19:02,182 --> 00:19:03,684
- Oh, so sorry.
- And unlike you,
433
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:05,394
I chose not to spend
the off cycle sulking
434
00:19:05,394 --> 00:19:07,688
and, um, writing
about a dead duck.
435
00:19:07,688 --> 00:19:10,232
She was a Chinese mallard.
436
00:19:10,232 --> 00:19:12,860
The Governor is excited
to be back in Iowa
437
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:14,862
to talk to real Americans
about real solutions.
438
00:19:14,862 --> 00:19:15,904
Just ten minutes.
439
00:19:15,904 --> 00:19:17,447
We have no further comment.
440
00:19:17,447 --> 00:19:19,074
I liked you better
when you were a bagman.
441
00:19:19,074 --> 00:19:20,409
Bet you did.
442
00:19:20,409 --> 00:19:21,910
Kimberlyn.
- Hey.
443
00:19:21,910 --> 00:19:24,121
Hey. Already?
444
00:19:24,121 --> 00:19:25,747
I'm trying
to get work done, okay?
445
00:19:30,168 --> 00:19:31,879
Theresa, hi.
446
00:19:31,879 --> 00:19:34,756
Hi, it's--it's Sadie McCarthy
from "The New York Sentinel."
447
00:19:34,756 --> 00:19:36,300
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I get that.
448
00:19:36,300 --> 00:19:38,594
But just tell Bennett
that the first interview
449
00:19:38,594 --> 00:19:39,928
has to be with "The Sentinel."
450
00:19:39,928 --> 00:19:42,931
Long time. Yeah. Yeah.
Random question.
451
00:19:42,931 --> 00:19:45,225
You and Bennett play
pickleball together, right?
452
00:19:45,225 --> 00:19:48,103
Yes, my editor put me
back on politics.
453
00:19:48,103 --> 00:19:51,315
Jamie, Jamie,
surely you still have hope.
454
00:19:51,315 --> 00:19:52,691
No. No.
455
00:19:52,691 --> 00:19:54,192
I can't go through
her press secretary
456
00:19:54,192 --> 00:19:57,112
for reasons I cannot get into.
457
00:19:57,112 --> 00:19:59,281
No, I'm not in the bathroom.
458
00:19:59,281 --> 00:20:01,950
Fuck!
459
00:20:01,950 --> 00:20:04,077
Fuck!
460
00:20:04,077 --> 00:20:06,747
Fuck!
461
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:09,291
Who's got
the first cable sit-down
462
00:20:09,291 --> 00:20:11,084
with Caroline Bennett?
- Liberty Direct News.
463
00:20:11,084 --> 00:20:13,128
Liberty Direct News?
464
00:20:13,128 --> 00:20:17,466
Not exactly a friendly outlet.
465
00:20:17,466 --> 00:20:19,092
Who is it? Nellie Carmichael?
466
00:20:19,092 --> 00:20:21,803
Actually, it's gonna be
with Kimberlyn Kendrick.
467
00:20:21,803 --> 00:20:25,807
Kimberlyn? Uh-huh.
468
00:20:25,807 --> 00:20:28,644
All right. Thanks.
469
00:20:35,317 --> 00:20:38,946
Kimberlyn Kendrick.
470
00:20:45,202 --> 00:20:48,747
Venti cinnamon
almond milk macchiato.
471
00:20:48,747 --> 00:20:50,499
Bingo.
472
00:20:50,499 --> 00:20:52,042
Saying yes
to your own wellness...
473
00:20:52,042 --> 00:20:54,169
Saying yes
to your own wellness
474
00:20:54,169 --> 00:20:57,881
often means saying no
to others.
475
00:20:57,881 --> 00:21:00,342
If you keep saying yes
to everyone,
476
00:21:00,342 --> 00:21:03,720
you will have nothing left
for yourself.
477
00:21:09,685 --> 00:21:12,145
Good morning, Nellie!
478
00:21:12,145 --> 00:21:13,522
Oh.
479
00:21:13,522 --> 00:21:15,941
No, honey, you sound awful.
480
00:21:15,941 --> 00:21:18,360
Oh. Oh, I'm so sorry.
481
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:21,530
Is there anything
I can do to help?
482
00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:25,575
Oh, Nellie, that event is,
like, two hours away, right?
483
00:21:28,954 --> 00:21:30,872
No, no. It's fine. Fine, no.
484
00:21:30,872 --> 00:21:33,250
I got you. Just feel better.
485
00:21:35,961 --> 00:21:37,129
{\an8}Hi, fam!
486
00:21:37,129 --> 00:21:38,797
{\an8}I'm at the University of Iowa.
487
00:21:38,797 --> 00:21:41,466
And before we get some action
with our candidate crush,
488
00:21:41,466 --> 00:21:43,385
I want to break down
some of her talking points.
489
00:21:43,385 --> 00:21:47,097
So first, Green New Deal is not
just gonna save our planet
490
00:21:47,097 --> 00:21:49,057
from all the shit
that we have done to it--
491
00:21:49,057 --> 00:21:50,559
fucking straws--
492
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:52,436
but it's also gonna
save your future
493
00:21:52,436 --> 00:21:56,273
{\an8}by creating a green economy
and bridge the wealth gap.
494
00:21:56,273 --> 00:21:58,233
{\an8}We'll be making a living wage
on our wind farm,
495
00:21:58,233 --> 00:22:00,402
{\an8}so we're not gonna have to win
the next round of "Squid Game"
496
00:22:00,402 --> 00:22:01,945
{\an8}just to buy dad a new kidney.
497
00:22:01,945 --> 00:22:03,363
{\an8}Amazing. I know.
498
00:22:03,363 --> 00:22:05,907
Next, when y'all hear my girl
bring up MMT,
499
00:22:05,907 --> 00:22:07,868
she's not telling you
to "meet me there."
500
00:22:07,868 --> 00:22:11,872
She's talking about
Modern Monetary Theory.
501
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:13,248
So you know
how we're always hearing
502
00:22:13,248 --> 00:22:15,917
how we have to balance
our budget?
503
00:22:15,917 --> 00:22:17,169
No. We don't.
504
00:22:17,169 --> 00:22:18,628
We have enough money to pay
505
00:22:18,628 --> 00:22:20,130
for everything
that society needs.
506
00:22:20,130 --> 00:22:23,258
All we have to do
is hit print.
507
00:22:23,258 --> 00:22:24,509
Kimberlyn?
508
00:22:24,509 --> 00:22:26,803
It's Sadie.
509
00:22:26,803 --> 00:22:28,346
I'm so pissed.
510
00:22:28,346 --> 00:22:30,015
They messed up my coffee order.
511
00:22:30,015 --> 00:22:33,602
Do you want my venti cinnamon
almond milk macchiato?
512
00:22:33,602 --> 00:22:36,104
Hi.
513
00:22:36,104 --> 00:22:38,732
- Thank you.
- Oh.
514
00:22:38,732 --> 00:22:41,443
Enjoy.
515
00:22:41,443 --> 00:22:44,362
I am still waiting, y'all,
and I'm fully about to get
516
00:22:44,362 --> 00:22:45,781
a UTI from holding my pee.
517
00:22:45,781 --> 00:22:47,407
But you gotta sacrifice
for the cause.
518
00:22:47,407 --> 00:22:49,951
I'm trying to get y'all
some legit face time
519
00:22:49,951 --> 00:22:51,119
with the candidate.
520
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,914
- Hi.
521
00:22:53,914 --> 00:22:55,499
Here she comes.
522
00:22:55,499 --> 00:22:58,085
Hi. Hi.
523
00:22:58,085 --> 00:23:00,962
Excuse me. I'm so sorry.
'Scuse me, 'scuse me.
524
00:23:00,962 --> 00:23:03,048
Congresswoman,
do you really believe
525
00:23:03,048 --> 00:23:04,966
that redistribution will
benefit the poor
526
00:23:04,966 --> 00:23:06,635
when capitalism has lifted--
527
00:23:06,635 --> 00:23:08,678
Oh, thank you.
So nice to meet you.
528
00:23:08,678 --> 00:23:11,389
Whoo!
529
00:23:11,389 --> 00:23:13,308
Do you really believe
that redistribution will
530
00:23:13,308 --> 00:23:15,143
benefit the poor
when capitalism has lifted
531
00:23:15,143 --> 00:23:18,355
more people out of poverty
than any other economic system?
532
00:23:18,355 --> 00:23:20,816
Why are you afraid
of Liberty Direct News?
533
00:23:20,816 --> 00:23:22,192
Maybe because
you're the devil.
534
00:23:22,192 --> 00:23:23,318
Oh, says the party
that's supposed
535
00:23:23,318 --> 00:23:24,653
to stand up for free speech.
536
00:23:24,653 --> 00:23:25,946
Your network's words
537
00:23:25,946 --> 00:23:27,405
are literally violence.
538
00:23:27,405 --> 00:23:28,698
Words are not violence.
539
00:23:28,698 --> 00:23:30,158
Get out of here!
540
00:23:30,158 --> 00:23:31,368
Stop! What are you doing?
541
00:23:31,368 --> 00:23:32,619
Whoa, whoa!
542
00:23:32,619 --> 00:23:34,079
Stop it! No!
543
00:23:34,079 --> 00:23:35,330
Guys, stop!
544
00:23:40,252 --> 00:23:42,629
crowd: [chanting] Far Right
fake news has got to go!
545
00:23:42,629 --> 00:23:44,256
Hey, hey! Ho, ho!
546
00:23:44,256 --> 00:23:45,924
Far Right fake news
has got to go!
547
00:23:45,924 --> 00:23:48,260
Hey, hey! Ho, ho!
548
00:23:48,260 --> 00:23:51,012
Lola Rahaii just turned
a panel about monetary policy
549
00:23:51,012 --> 00:23:53,014
into a livestream
of a mini riot.
550
00:23:53,014 --> 00:23:54,558
Guaranteed NOTD.
551
00:23:54,558 --> 00:23:56,059
Being in the right place
at the right time
552
00:23:56,059 --> 00:23:57,269
doesn't make you a reporter.
553
00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:58,979
It doesn't?
554
00:23:58,979 --> 00:24:01,148
She goes to all
the cool protest marches.
555
00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:02,649
I heard she chained herself
556
00:24:02,649 --> 00:24:04,359
to a chicken processing plant
in Ames
557
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,902
to protest inhumane conditions.
558
00:24:05,902 --> 00:24:07,362
Why do you sound jealous?
559
00:24:07,362 --> 00:24:09,197
You ate half the coop
at the buffet yesterday.
560
00:24:09,197 --> 00:24:11,199
I'm--I'm just saying,
it must be nice
561
00:24:11,199 --> 00:24:12,826
to stand up
for what you believe in
562
00:24:12,826 --> 00:24:13,952
and still have a job.
563
00:24:13,952 --> 00:24:14,995
She doesn't have a job.
564
00:24:14,995 --> 00:24:16,037
She has a phone.
565
00:24:16,037 --> 00:24:17,330
Sadie, get off Instagram.
566
00:24:21,376 --> 00:24:23,336
Your dad's taking you
to breakfast in half an hour.
567
00:24:23,336 --> 00:24:25,046
I'm leaving, unless you need me
568
00:24:25,046 --> 00:24:27,507
to fold something else
or give you a sex talk.
569
00:24:27,507 --> 00:24:30,260
You gave me the sex talk
when I was five.
570
00:24:30,260 --> 00:24:31,678
I was the only girl
in kindergarten
571
00:24:31,678 --> 00:24:33,346
who knew the word "vulva."
572
00:24:33,346 --> 00:24:35,140
Accuracy matters.
573
00:24:39,644 --> 00:24:41,271
Okay, you two.
574
00:24:41,271 --> 00:24:43,732
Be good. Don't get pregnant.
575
00:24:43,732 --> 00:24:48,361
Abortions are now illegal
pretty much everywhere.
576
00:24:48,361 --> 00:24:49,946
Mom. Ugh.
577
00:24:49,946 --> 00:24:53,283
What he/him Iowan
do I have to blow
578
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:55,368
to get a Lyft out here?
579
00:24:55,368 --> 00:24:57,120
Y'all, send help.
- Wait.
580
00:24:57,120 --> 00:25:00,248
I'm in the middle
of an Iowan farm.
581
00:25:00,248 --> 00:25:03,585
Help!
582
00:25:05,670 --> 00:25:08,381
Why is Kimberlyn with Lola?
583
00:25:16,848 --> 00:25:18,141
So what's Uber saying?
584
00:25:18,141 --> 00:25:20,060
Lyft. We Lyft.
585
00:25:20,060 --> 00:25:23,396
And it's completing
a nearby trip.
586
00:25:23,396 --> 00:25:26,191
In fucking Omaha?
587
00:25:26,191 --> 00:25:27,108
Ugh!
588
00:25:27,108 --> 00:25:30,695
Motherfucking shit cunt.
589
00:25:30,695 --> 00:25:33,365
Oh, my God, I'm being canceled?
590
00:25:33,365 --> 00:25:35,075
No, no, no!
591
00:25:35,075 --> 00:25:38,078
No good deed, man.
No fucking good deed.
592
00:25:38,078 --> 00:25:41,289
Okay, so, Lola, I need you
to focus on getting us a ride,
593
00:25:41,289 --> 00:25:42,791
because I'm gonna be late
for an interview.
594
00:25:42,791 --> 00:25:45,043
Okay, chill!
I didn't make you late.
595
00:25:45,043 --> 00:25:46,544
If you had a thing
in Des Moines,
596
00:25:46,544 --> 00:25:48,255
why'd you bounce
all the way to Iowa City?
597
00:25:48,255 --> 00:25:49,297
My friend was sick,
598
00:25:49,297 --> 00:25:50,799
and she asked me to cover.
599
00:25:50,799 --> 00:25:53,260
Women help women.
600
00:25:53,260 --> 00:25:55,720
Kind of like
what I just did for you?
601
00:25:58,306 --> 00:26:01,142
I wasn't sure
you identified as a woman,
602
00:26:01,142 --> 00:26:02,894
and I would hate to misgender.
603
00:26:02,894 --> 00:26:05,355
Okay, I'm sorry, Kimmy.
604
00:26:05,355 --> 00:26:07,148
I think that you were
trying to drag me just now,
605
00:26:07,148 --> 00:26:08,525
but that might have been
the wisest thing
606
00:26:08,525 --> 00:26:09,818
that I've ever heard you say.
607
00:26:09,818 --> 00:26:11,278
Like you've ever
even watched me.
608
00:26:11,278 --> 00:26:14,197
You don't know me.
I watch everyone.
609
00:26:14,197 --> 00:26:16,825
Know thy enemy, just don't
give them all your energy.
610
00:26:16,825 --> 00:26:18,702
Oh, is that from
one of your buttons?
611
00:26:18,702 --> 00:26:20,036
Honestly,
I don't mean to be rude,
612
00:26:20,036 --> 00:26:22,414
but are you even a reporter?
613
00:26:23,540 --> 00:26:25,667
According to The Cut,
I am the eyes and ears
614
00:26:25,667 --> 00:26:27,544
of my entire generation.
615
00:26:27,544 --> 00:26:29,713
What about you?
What's a Black woman doing
616
00:26:29,713 --> 00:26:31,881
working at Liberty
White Nationalist News?
617
00:26:31,881 --> 00:26:33,049
You want to do this
right now?
618
00:26:33,049 --> 00:26:34,634
Okay, let's do this.
619
00:26:34,634 --> 00:26:36,094
I know what Liberty is.
620
00:26:36,094 --> 00:26:39,014
They are racist,
because everyone is racist.
621
00:26:39,014 --> 00:26:40,473
At least they're honest
about it.
622
00:26:40,473 --> 00:26:42,350
It's better than
condescending Democrats
623
00:26:42,350 --> 00:26:43,977
trying to tell me
that I'm a victim,
624
00:26:43,977 --> 00:26:46,146
and only they know
what's best for me.
625
00:26:46,146 --> 00:26:48,398
I'm not a Democrat,
just for the record.
626
00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:51,234
Yo.
627
00:26:51,234 --> 00:26:52,819
- Lola!
- Oh, is that the driver?
628
00:26:52,819 --> 00:26:54,487
What's he saying?
- It's Sadie McCarthy.
629
00:26:54,487 --> 00:26:56,781
- Who?
- From "The Sentinel."
630
00:26:56,781 --> 00:26:58,033
We met the other night?
631
00:26:58,033 --> 00:27:01,411
Never mind.
Can I talk to Kimberlyn?
632
00:27:01,411 --> 00:27:03,538
Yeah. It's for you.
633
00:27:05,582 --> 00:27:08,209
- This is Kimberlyn.
- Kimberlyn! Sadie McCarthy.
634
00:27:08,209 --> 00:27:11,880
I, uh--I see that you and Lola
are currently stranded,
635
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,840
and I'm wondering
how you plan to make it back
636
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,884
in time for your interview
with Governor Bennett.
637
00:27:15,884 --> 00:27:17,719
I appreciate
your concern, Sadie,
638
00:27:17,719 --> 00:27:19,095
but I've got everything
under control.
639
00:27:19,095 --> 00:27:20,472
My Uber will be here
any minute.
640
00:27:20,472 --> 00:27:21,973
- Lyft!
- Well, if you're not on
641
00:27:21,973 --> 00:27:23,475
the road within the next
five minutes,
642
00:27:23,475 --> 00:27:25,018
you're never gonna make it
in time.
643
00:27:25,018 --> 00:27:28,063
Do you see that pickup
headed your way?
644
00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:33,568
That's my friend Billy,
and his truck has
645
00:27:33,568 --> 00:27:36,071
the horsepower to get you back
in plenty of time.
646
00:27:36,071 --> 00:27:37,238
Why would you help me?
647
00:27:37,238 --> 00:27:38,615
Look, it's very simple.
648
00:27:38,615 --> 00:27:40,241
You tell me
where you're scheduled
649
00:27:40,241 --> 00:27:42,202
to meet Governor Bennett,
and the truck is yours.
650
00:27:42,202 --> 00:27:44,496
Yeah, no, I'm not
giving you my exclusive.
651
00:27:44,496 --> 00:27:46,122
You won't be!
My story won't publish
652
00:27:46,122 --> 00:27:47,415
until after
your interview hits.
653
00:27:47,415 --> 00:27:48,458
That's the beauty of print.
654
00:27:48,458 --> 00:27:49,751
We're slow as shit.
655
00:27:49,751 --> 00:27:51,086
Are you with Lyft?
656
00:27:53,171 --> 00:27:55,048
Come on!
657
00:27:55,048 --> 00:27:56,549
Ugh, you know what? Fine.
658
00:27:56,549 --> 00:27:57,926
Room 211.
659
00:27:57,926 --> 00:28:00,553
Thank you!
660
00:28:06,434 --> 00:28:08,853
- Are you Billy?
- Yep.
661
00:28:08,853 --> 00:28:10,522
You coming?
662
00:28:10,522 --> 00:28:14,192
I think I'll wait for Eddie
and his white Toyota Camry.
663
00:28:14,192 --> 00:28:17,362
No offense, but you're toxic
for my brand.
664
00:28:19,364 --> 00:28:20,448
Okay.
665
00:28:30,083 --> 00:28:32,794
Why, Iowa?
666
00:28:37,549 --> 00:28:38,716
Jesus Christ.
667
00:28:38,716 --> 00:28:40,301
You are relentless.
- Thank you.
668
00:28:40,301 --> 00:28:42,011
So, uh, pleading
with every member
669
00:28:42,011 --> 00:28:43,763
of her kindergarten class,
that didn't work out for you,
670
00:28:43,763 --> 00:28:46,266
so now you are
storming the castle.
671
00:28:46,266 --> 00:28:47,976
Governor's already arranged
a first interview--
672
00:28:47,976 --> 00:28:49,477
With Liberty Direct News, yeah.
673
00:28:49,477 --> 00:28:50,895
I know. Seriously?
674
00:28:50,895 --> 00:28:52,605
They spent the entire
last cycle saying a woman
675
00:28:52,605 --> 00:28:54,649
couldn't be commander-in-chief,
PMS and all.
676
00:28:54,649 --> 00:28:56,151
Black female correspondent.
677
00:28:56,151 --> 00:28:57,694
Hits all the demos
but speaks to the red states.
678
00:28:57,694 --> 00:28:59,279
It polled in the '90s.
- Yup. Yup.
679
00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:00,530
The '90s.
680
00:29:00,530 --> 00:29:01,739
Only things
that poll in the '90s
681
00:29:01,739 --> 00:29:03,283
are kittens and Kelly Clarkson.
682
00:29:03,283 --> 00:29:04,993
And we're supposed to shift
our whole strategy
683
00:29:04,993 --> 00:29:06,661
'cause Sadie McCarthy wants in?
It's not happening.
684
00:29:06,661 --> 00:29:08,997
If you knew
the pressure I was under--
685
00:29:08,997 --> 00:29:10,623
The pressure you're under?
686
00:29:10,623 --> 00:29:12,667
Sadie, we're running
for president.
687
00:29:12,667 --> 00:29:14,419
We have four days
until the caucus.
688
00:29:14,419 --> 00:29:17,630
That gives me 5,760 minutes--
689
00:29:17,630 --> 00:29:19,090
- What?
- I went to Yale--
690
00:29:19,090 --> 00:29:20,717
to convince
the good people of Iowa
691
00:29:20,717 --> 00:29:22,302
to caucus for Governor Bennett,
and I'm just--
692
00:29:22,302 --> 00:29:25,054
I'm wasting two of them
talking to you.
693
00:29:30,351 --> 00:29:31,936
Dale.
694
00:29:35,315 --> 00:29:36,774
Hey.
695
00:29:36,774 --> 00:29:38,359
Hi.
696
00:29:38,359 --> 00:29:40,153
Hey, it's me.
697
00:29:40,153 --> 00:29:43,698
I, uh--I gave you
a coffee earlier.
698
00:29:43,698 --> 00:29:46,409
Hey, I was wondering,
can I borrow your cart
699
00:29:46,409 --> 00:29:47,994
for ten minutes?
700
00:29:50,121 --> 00:29:51,831
Okay, here's the deal.
701
00:29:51,831 --> 00:29:54,501
I screwed up at work,
and my bosses gave me
702
00:29:54,501 --> 00:29:56,169
a second chance,
and then this is it.
703
00:29:56,169 --> 00:29:59,380
This moment right now,
we are--here we are,
704
00:29:59,380 --> 00:30:01,591
and I have to nail
this interview
705
00:30:01,591 --> 00:30:03,760
to prove I can do this,
not just to my boss,
706
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,638
but to all of
the Dale Petersons of the world
707
00:30:06,638 --> 00:30:08,306
who are just waiting
for us to screw up
708
00:30:08,306 --> 00:30:09,766
so they can take our jobs.
709
00:30:09,766 --> 00:30:11,267
Actually, you know what?
They're not even waiting
710
00:30:11,267 --> 00:30:12,644
for us to screw up.
711
00:30:12,644 --> 00:30:14,562
They are happy
to steal our jobs
712
00:30:14,562 --> 00:30:16,064
right out from under us.
713
00:30:16,064 --> 00:30:17,398
They don't even need a reason.
714
00:30:17,398 --> 00:30:19,025
They just get to win,
715
00:30:19,025 --> 00:30:22,987
even though Nate Silver
promised us they wouldn't.
716
00:30:24,489 --> 00:30:26,241
Fuck Nate Silver.
717
00:30:28,701 --> 00:30:32,789
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
718
00:30:57,647 --> 00:30:59,274
Housekeeping!
719
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:04,404
Hi. I'm not housekeeping.
720
00:31:04,404 --> 00:31:06,114
I was just hoping to talk to--
- What's going on?
721
00:31:06,114 --> 00:31:07,699
Governor Bennett,
Sadie McCarthy.
722
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:09,242
Governor, Governor!
I'm so sorry, Governor.
723
00:31:09,242 --> 00:31:10,785
I already told her
your schedule is full.
724
00:31:10,785 --> 00:31:13,288
- I just need five minutes.
- Sadie McCarthy.
725
00:31:13,288 --> 00:31:15,582
Your byline is
appointment reading.
726
00:31:15,582 --> 00:31:17,292
I loved your obituary
727
00:31:17,292 --> 00:31:19,168
of the Central Park duck.
728
00:31:19,168 --> 00:31:21,504
She was a Chinese mallard.
729
00:31:23,965 --> 00:31:25,633
All right, Governor Bennett,
I promised
730
00:31:25,633 --> 00:31:29,345
I'd keep it short,
so I have two questions.
731
00:31:29,345 --> 00:31:32,515
What are five things you want
America to know about you?
732
00:31:32,515 --> 00:31:34,058
That's five questions.
733
00:31:34,058 --> 00:31:35,810
And the second?
734
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,563
How are you going
to break our hearts?
735
00:31:38,563 --> 00:31:40,106
Ah.
736
00:31:40,106 --> 00:31:45,236
Well, I could tell you
about my next mystery novel.
737
00:31:45,236 --> 00:31:47,363
It's about
a wrongly-accused pastry chef.
738
00:31:47,363 --> 00:31:49,741
I'm calling it
"Flour in the Attic."
739
00:31:49,741 --> 00:31:51,826
And I'm sure I could rattle off
a few fun facts
740
00:31:51,826 --> 00:31:53,328
folks don't know about me,
741
00:31:53,328 --> 00:31:55,997
but I'd rather answer
your second question.
742
00:31:55,997 --> 00:31:58,625
Because that's the one
that's really scary, isn't it?
743
00:31:58,625 --> 00:32:00,543
How am I going
to screw this up?
744
00:32:00,543 --> 00:32:02,754
Let's talk about that.
Let's talk about...
745
00:32:02,754 --> 00:32:04,839
As she articulated
her hopes,
746
00:32:04,839 --> 00:32:08,509
her dreams,
her eyes never leaving mine,
747
00:32:08,509 --> 00:32:12,138
I could feel the familiar
shiver down my spine.
748
00:32:12,138 --> 00:32:15,058
I remembered what it felt like
to fall in love.
749
00:32:15,058 --> 00:32:18,353
I should have resisted,
but I didn't.
750
00:32:23,858 --> 00:32:25,360
- Thanks, Billy.
- You're welcome.
751
00:32:35,578 --> 00:32:36,537
Kimberlyn.
752
00:32:36,537 --> 00:32:38,206
I just tried to call you.
753
00:32:38,206 --> 00:32:41,959
Oh, no, you didn't just
send me on a wild goose chase
754
00:32:41,959 --> 00:32:43,002
to steal my interview!
755
00:32:43,002 --> 00:32:44,879
Oh, my God, sweetie, no.
756
00:32:44,879 --> 00:32:47,757
I was suddenly feeling better,
you were miles away,
757
00:32:47,757 --> 00:32:50,760
and I do not want us
to lose this opportunity.
758
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:51,969
Yeah, don't worry.
759
00:32:51,969 --> 00:32:53,930
We won't.
760
00:32:58,434 --> 00:33:01,062
Hi, I'm Kimberlyn Kendrick
with Liberty Direct News.
761
00:33:01,062 --> 00:33:03,231
Is the Governor ready?
762
00:33:03,231 --> 00:33:04,649
Kenny!
763
00:33:09,070 --> 00:33:10,863
I heard ISIS was
in the lobby.
764
00:33:10,863 --> 00:33:13,700
Maybe you could get a sit-down.
765
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:15,284
"We are
sentient human beings
766
00:33:15,284 --> 00:33:16,911
"who can't help
but pick a side.
767
00:33:16,911 --> 00:33:19,831
To pretend otherwise
is to deceive readers."
768
00:33:19,831 --> 00:33:21,958
Why are you reading me
back to me?
769
00:33:21,958 --> 00:33:23,084
Just shh.
770
00:33:23,084 --> 00:33:25,586
Don't interrupt.
771
00:33:25,586 --> 00:33:28,089
"I want to pour my soul
into every story,
772
00:33:28,089 --> 00:33:30,299
wrestle with the facts
and come out with the truth."
773
00:33:30,299 --> 00:33:31,759
both: "I want to tell you
774
00:33:31,759 --> 00:33:34,470
what I really think
about the candidates."
775
00:33:34,470 --> 00:33:37,932
"And the state
of our fragile democracy.
776
00:33:37,932 --> 00:33:40,143
In doing so, I will reinvent."
777
00:33:40,143 --> 00:33:41,769
both: "I will heal."
778
00:33:41,769 --> 00:33:45,106
"And maybe my readers
will heal with me."
779
00:33:51,446 --> 00:33:52,613
You hate it.
780
00:33:52,613 --> 00:33:54,782
- I didn't say that.
- It's too gonzo.
781
00:33:54,782 --> 00:33:56,743
You want me to tone it down.
I can tone it down.
782
00:33:56,743 --> 00:33:58,494
I'll do another pass.
I'll get it--
783
00:33:58,494 --> 00:34:00,163
Did I say I want you
to tone it down?
784
00:34:00,163 --> 00:34:01,456
Well, you're not
saying anything,
785
00:34:01,456 --> 00:34:03,207
which is really
freaking me out!
786
00:34:03,207 --> 00:34:04,208
It's good, Sadie.
787
00:34:04,208 --> 00:34:05,626
It's not objective,
788
00:34:05,626 --> 00:34:07,962
which is the one thing
we asked you to do.
789
00:34:07,962 --> 00:34:09,630
But--hell, I don't know.
790
00:34:09,630 --> 00:34:11,799
Maybe objectivity
isn't as important
791
00:34:11,799 --> 00:34:13,801
as authenticity here.
792
00:34:13,801 --> 00:34:15,219
I'm sorry.
793
00:34:15,219 --> 00:34:17,138
Would you care to repeat that
on the record?
794
00:34:17,138 --> 00:34:20,683
You have a point of view,
and you're honest about it.
795
00:34:20,683 --> 00:34:22,977
We've been objective
for hundreds of years,
796
00:34:22,977 --> 00:34:27,065
and our readers trust us
less than ever before.
797
00:34:27,065 --> 00:34:28,900
Maybe we're doing
something wrong.
798
00:34:31,944 --> 00:34:35,198
I've convinced the masthead
to run it on the front.
799
00:34:35,198 --> 00:34:36,657
Oh!
800
00:34:36,657 --> 00:34:39,202
Better hurry if we're
gonna make the bulldog.
801
00:34:42,038 --> 00:34:44,332
Page one, bitch!
802
00:34:44,332 --> 00:34:45,333
Whoo!
803
00:34:45,333 --> 00:34:47,835
Band or DJ?
804
00:34:47,835 --> 00:34:49,128
Both.
805
00:34:49,128 --> 00:34:52,256
Seafood tower
or no seafood tower?
806
00:34:52,256 --> 00:34:53,841
If we're not gonna have
a seafood tower,
807
00:34:53,841 --> 00:34:55,593
why bother getting married
in the first place?
808
00:34:57,845 --> 00:35:01,724
My mom is worried
that the venues you liked
809
00:35:01,724 --> 00:35:03,184
are a little too small.
810
00:35:03,184 --> 00:35:05,520
She wants us to go
check out Cipriani
811
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:10,358
and the botanical gardens
when we have time.
812
00:35:10,358 --> 00:35:12,193
Baby?
813
00:35:12,193 --> 00:35:14,195
Are you zoning out on me?
814
00:35:14,195 --> 00:35:17,824
"Great job on the Governor,
but the network felt
815
00:35:17,824 --> 00:35:20,660
"viewers would respond more
to Nellie.
816
00:35:20,660 --> 00:35:22,912
"She got POTUS detail.
817
00:35:22,912 --> 00:35:25,832
You stay on the Dems."
818
00:35:25,832 --> 00:35:29,544
"Respond more to Nellie."
819
00:35:29,544 --> 00:35:30,878
Well, we know what that means.
820
00:35:30,878 --> 00:35:32,505
It means
what it always means,
821
00:35:32,505 --> 00:35:36,050
and you will rise above
like you always do.
822
00:35:36,050 --> 00:35:39,929
Oh, I'm so sick
of having to rise above!
823
00:35:39,929 --> 00:35:42,473
I was chapter president
of my sorority!
824
00:35:42,473 --> 00:35:44,016
I was on
the "Harvard Law Review"!
825
00:35:44,016 --> 00:35:46,477
I am the only Black woman
to ever headline
826
00:35:46,477 --> 00:35:48,563
the Young Republicans
Convention.
827
00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,815
And I landed
the fucking exclusive!
828
00:35:50,815 --> 00:35:53,484
God damn, what more do
these people want from me?
829
00:35:53,484 --> 00:35:55,736
That's right, baby.
Let it out!
830
00:36:02,743 --> 00:36:05,204
She was being
attacked, Ashley.
831
00:36:05,204 --> 00:36:07,540
Violence against women
isn't a partisan issue!
832
00:36:07,540 --> 00:36:09,584
"Black lives matter"
doesn't only apply to people
833
00:36:09,584 --> 00:36:11,085
with our same politics!
834
00:36:11,085 --> 00:36:12,962
I mean, screw them.
I'll find another sponsor.
835
00:36:12,962 --> 00:36:15,756
Their protein bars
tasted like ass anyway.
836
00:36:26,225 --> 00:36:28,352
"Governor Caroline Bennett,
the leading candidate
837
00:36:28,352 --> 00:36:30,104
"in the Democratic race
for president,
838
00:36:30,104 --> 00:36:32,773
"allegedly engaged
in an erotic club,
839
00:36:32,773 --> 00:36:34,692
"recruiting vulnerable

00:36:34,692 --> 00:36:36,694
"to join her

00:36:36,694 --> 00:36:38,529
"according to a source
with direct knowledge
842
00:36:38,529 --> 00:36:41,532
of the underground club's
existence in Chicago."
843
00:36:41,532 --> 00:36:43,117
Fucking Grace.
844
00:36:45,536 --> 00:36:47,121
Hey!
845
00:36:47,121 --> 00:36:48,998
Heads-up would have been nice.
846
00:36:48,998 --> 00:36:50,708
I just wrote a Bennett blowjob!
847
00:36:50,708 --> 00:36:52,543
Oh, I'm sorry, Sadie.
848
00:36:52,543 --> 00:36:55,129
Did I forget to mention
that the candidate I work for
849
00:36:55,129 --> 00:36:58,466
is a sexual deviant whose past
may have included wild orgies?
850
00:36:58,466 --> 00:37:00,343
My bad.
- The story's spreading
851
00:37:00,343 --> 00:37:01,969
like scabies online already.
852
00:37:01,969 --> 00:37:05,806
I look--I look like
a goddamn idiot!
853
00:37:05,806 --> 00:37:07,391
Is she dropping out?
854
00:37:07,391 --> 00:37:08,976
Why would she drop out?
855
00:37:08,976 --> 00:37:11,312
These egregious allegations
are totally unfounded.
856
00:37:11,312 --> 00:37:13,397
Come on. Really?
857
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:18,152
Off the record,
she refuses to drop out,
858
00:37:18,152 --> 00:37:19,987
even though we're done.
859
00:37:22,698 --> 00:37:23,950
Are you okay?
860
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,164
Uh, yeah.
861
00:37:30,164 --> 00:37:32,708
It's just politics.
862
00:37:32,708 --> 00:37:34,168
Well, you don't look okay.
863
00:37:34,168 --> 00:37:35,795
Hey, Sadie, come on.
I don't have time.
864
00:37:35,795 --> 00:37:37,463
And it's not just politics.
It never has been.
865
00:37:37,463 --> 00:37:39,006
Not for you. Not for me.
866
00:37:39,006 --> 00:37:40,716
We were always the believers.
867
00:37:40,716 --> 00:37:42,385
Yeah, look where that got us.
868
00:37:44,512 --> 00:37:46,180
Hey, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait.
869
00:37:46,180 --> 00:37:49,058
Sorry.
870
00:37:49,058 --> 00:37:53,229
I'm sorry that I ghosted you.
871
00:37:53,229 --> 00:37:57,316
Even if I wasn't fully aware
that we were serious.
872
00:37:57,316 --> 00:38:01,362
We talked about
moving in together in D.C.
873
00:38:01,362 --> 00:38:04,365
So much alcohol.
874
00:38:09,537 --> 00:38:13,457
I'm--I'm not--
875
00:38:13,457 --> 00:38:15,626
I'm not great
876
00:38:15,626 --> 00:38:20,006
at relationships.
877
00:38:22,133 --> 00:38:23,676
It wasn't you.
878
00:38:28,681 --> 00:38:32,059
Uh, well, um,
on deep background...
879
00:38:33,811 --> 00:38:36,897
I hadn't heard about anything
worse than a parking ticket
880
00:38:36,897 --> 00:38:38,566
till Grace reached out
for comment.
881
00:38:38,566 --> 00:38:40,151
Why didn't this come out
in self-oppo?
882
00:38:40,151 --> 00:38:42,403
She refused to do self-oppo.
883
00:38:42,403 --> 00:38:44,405
I guess it's hard
to see our own flaws.
884
00:38:49,410 --> 00:38:51,370
Yeah.
I know, I know, I know.
885
00:38:51,370 --> 00:38:54,582
Dale is writing the leadoff
for the front.
886
00:38:54,582 --> 00:38:56,625
We still have time
to make late editions.
887
00:38:58,377 --> 00:38:59,670
And my story?
888
00:38:59,670 --> 00:39:02,590
We run it web-only,
linking to Dale's piece.
889
00:39:02,590 --> 00:39:04,508
Stay on the bus
until she drops out.
890
00:39:04,508 --> 00:39:06,052
Gah!
891
00:39:08,971 --> 00:39:11,057
God damn it.
892
00:39:16,645 --> 00:39:19,273
How come your luggage
doesn't squeak?
893
00:39:19,273 --> 00:39:20,775
Seven cycles, bitch.
894
00:39:20,775 --> 00:39:22,943
You'll get there.
895
00:39:25,780 --> 00:39:27,907
I'm sorry about the story.
896
00:39:27,907 --> 00:39:30,117
I know Bennett was
an important get for you.
897
00:39:30,117 --> 00:39:31,619
Well, you dropped the hints.
898
00:39:31,619 --> 00:39:33,204
I should have
picked up on them.
899
00:39:33,204 --> 00:39:34,663
So Chicago.
900
00:39:34,663 --> 00:39:37,124
That was a really nice thing
you did for Annie.
901
00:39:37,124 --> 00:39:38,459
Mm.
902
00:39:38,459 --> 00:39:39,919
But I noticed that your story
903
00:39:39,919 --> 00:39:42,088
had a Chicago dateline.
904
00:39:42,088 --> 00:39:45,758
Did you take Annie to college
to chase a source?
905
00:39:45,758 --> 00:39:47,134
It was a really big scoop.
906
00:39:47,134 --> 00:39:49,095
- I'm allowed to multitask.
907
00:39:49,095 --> 00:39:51,764
Mother of the year.
908
00:39:51,764 --> 00:39:54,308
Sorry.
- Oh, don't be. You're lucky.
909
00:39:54,308 --> 00:39:55,643
Nobody expects you to be
910
00:39:55,643 --> 00:39:58,354
Martha Stewart
and Bob Woodward.
911
00:39:58,354 --> 00:40:00,189
There was a time
when career women
912
00:40:00,189 --> 00:40:01,982
couldn't be childless messes.
913
00:40:01,982 --> 00:40:03,692
Oh, my God!
914
00:40:03,692 --> 00:40:05,945
Y'all do understand that gender
is a social construct, right?
915
00:40:05,945 --> 00:40:07,488
Tell that to my pelvic floor.
916
00:40:09,824 --> 00:40:11,700
Kimmy! Oh!
917
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:14,161
Ruiner of my career.
Come. Come, come, come.
918
00:40:14,161 --> 00:40:16,205
Join our elite
media drinking game.
919
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:19,208
Take a shot every time somebody
says "source" or "scoop."
920
00:40:19,208 --> 00:40:21,293
- You do realize
921
00:40:21,293 --> 00:40:23,129
that if Liberty had broken
that story,
922
00:40:23,129 --> 00:40:26,340
it would have been dismissed
as a partisan hit job.
923
00:40:26,340 --> 00:40:30,052
But the liberal media gets it,
924
00:40:30,052 --> 00:40:32,847
and it's,
"All hail the scoop queen!"
925
00:40:32,847 --> 00:40:35,015
Hey, that's one!
926
00:40:35,015 --> 00:40:36,183
We're not liberal.
927
00:40:36,183 --> 00:40:38,519
We're objective.
- Yeah.
928
00:40:38,519 --> 00:40:40,104
Keep telling yourself that.
929
00:40:40,104 --> 00:40:42,481
Well, Bennett's done.
930
00:40:42,481 --> 00:40:44,650
So can we objectively agree
931
00:40:44,650 --> 00:40:47,695
that we're all riding
a zombie bus to nowhere?
932
00:40:55,578 --> 00:40:58,122
Yo, print.
933
00:40:58,122 --> 00:40:59,874
Old-school.
934
00:41:05,296 --> 00:41:07,131
- Lola Rahaii.
- Hi.
935
00:41:07,131 --> 00:41:08,632
I saw your TikTok.
936
00:41:08,632 --> 00:41:10,050
The way you broke down
the Green New Deal,
937
00:41:10,050 --> 00:41:11,886
that was super dope.
938
00:41:11,886 --> 00:41:14,513
We should do a one-on-one
at some point.
939
00:41:14,513 --> 00:41:15,681
Yeah. Yeah.
940
00:41:15,681 --> 00:41:17,391
Congresswoman,
your car is here.
941
00:41:17,391 --> 00:41:18,934
I'll find you.
942
00:41:31,030 --> 00:41:32,781
Hey, sweetie.
943
00:41:32,781 --> 00:41:35,868
I know yesterday was super
intense for the both of us,
944
00:41:35,868 --> 00:41:38,954
but I hope
we can still be friends.
945
00:41:38,954 --> 00:41:41,665
Let me make myself
very clear.
946
00:41:41,665 --> 00:41:44,543
I'm gonna do
what our bosses ask me to do.
947
00:41:44,543 --> 00:41:46,045
I'll cover the Democrats,
948
00:41:46,045 --> 00:41:49,215
and I will exceed
their expectations
949
00:41:49,215 --> 00:41:52,259
until I don't just have
your job,
950
00:41:52,259 --> 00:41:54,762
I have any job I want,
951
00:41:54,762 --> 00:41:59,183
and you're back waiting tables
at a Hooters in Plano.
952
00:41:59,183 --> 00:42:04,396
So by all means,
underestimate me.
953
00:42:04,396 --> 00:42:05,814
That'll be fun.
954
00:42:07,942 --> 00:42:09,902
Get out.
955
00:42:16,533 --> 00:42:17,993
Back off, boys.
956
00:42:17,993 --> 00:42:20,538
These seats are reserved
for the major dailies.
957
00:42:22,373 --> 00:42:24,333
Keep moving.
958
00:42:41,767 --> 00:42:44,144
"Wall Street Journal."
959
00:42:44,144 --> 00:42:46,730
Don't mind if I do.
960
00:42:46,730 --> 00:42:47,940
Well, I'll just do it
on here.
961
00:42:47,940 --> 00:42:49,441
Thanks so much.
962
00:42:49,441 --> 00:42:51,568
Did you get that, Tim?
We gotta do it on the app.
963
00:42:51,568 --> 00:42:53,445
Oh!
- Oh, I'm sorry!
964
00:42:53,445 --> 00:42:56,490
Sorry. I'm so, so sorry.
- No, that's--
965
00:42:56,490 --> 00:42:58,200
Sadie McCarthy.
- Yes.
966
00:42:58,200 --> 00:42:59,994
I just read
your article online.
967
00:42:59,994 --> 00:43:01,787
It was good.
968
00:43:01,787 --> 00:43:04,206
Too bad it had
the shelf life of sashimi.
969
00:43:04,206 --> 00:43:05,916
Thank you?
970
00:43:05,916 --> 00:43:07,167
Hey, I dug
your speech yesterday.
971
00:43:07,167 --> 00:43:08,544
- Oh.
- Too bad you have
972
00:43:08,544 --> 00:43:10,671
no chance in hell
of winning this thing.
973
00:43:10,671 --> 00:43:13,173
Ouch.
974
00:43:13,173 --> 00:43:14,675
How about this?
975
00:43:14,675 --> 00:43:17,261
If I make it to Nevada,
you do a piece on me.
976
00:43:21,765 --> 00:43:23,142
I'm gonna miss my bus.
- Okay.
977
00:43:23,142 --> 00:43:24,143
Yeah.
978
00:43:26,061 --> 00:43:27,187
That was weird.
979
00:43:27,187 --> 00:43:30,149
Sorry.
980
00:43:30,149 --> 00:43:32,484
I'm sorry. Hey.
981
00:43:33,694 --> 00:43:35,321
Thanks for holding
the bus for me.
982
00:43:35,321 --> 00:43:36,572
You really think I'd do that?
983
00:43:36,572 --> 00:43:38,866
Have you met me?
984
00:43:38,866 --> 00:43:40,451
There's gridlock on the I-80.
985
00:43:40,451 --> 00:43:42,828
Oh, great.
986
00:43:42,828 --> 00:43:45,539
To be a journalist
is to have a calling.
987
00:43:45,539 --> 00:43:47,708
It's not a life you choose.
988
00:43:47,708 --> 00:43:49,126
It chooses you.
989
00:43:49,126 --> 00:43:50,711
For as long as I can remember,
990
00:43:50,711 --> 00:43:53,380
all I wanted was
to brave the storms of life
991
00:43:53,380 --> 00:43:55,215
and write words that mattered.
992
00:43:55,215 --> 00:43:58,218
And just like the boys
on the bus who came before me,
993
00:43:58,218 --> 00:44:01,430
I was determined to seek
more than just the facts.
994
00:44:01,430 --> 00:44:03,432
I wanted the truth.
995
00:44:03,432 --> 00:44:05,893
And I wasn't alone.
996
00:44:05,893 --> 00:44:08,187
We may have started
as competitors,
997
00:44:08,187 --> 00:44:10,189
but we would end as a family.
998
00:44:10,189 --> 00:44:12,483
This is a story
about the kind of friendship
999
00:44:12,483 --> 00:44:15,402
you never knew you needed
but can't live without.
1000
00:44:15,402 --> 00:44:17,279
We didn't realize it
at the time,
1001
00:44:17,279 --> 00:44:20,949
but our journey was about
to take one hell of a turn.
1002
00:44:20,949 --> 00:44:22,701
One that would bring
all of us together
1003
00:44:22,701 --> 00:44:24,411
and force us
to risk everything
1004
00:44:24,411 --> 00:44:27,915
to save our fragile democracy
1005
00:44:27,915 --> 00:44:29,625
or go down with it.
1006
00:44:29,625 --> 00:44:34,505
♪ I don't wanna lose myself
again ♪
1007
00:46:03,969 --> 00:46:06,096
Greg, move your head.
1008
00:46:06,763 --> 00:46:08,098
Bye!
