1
00:00:11,145 --> 00:00:12,546
(sighing)
Incredible.
2
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:13,981
Last night he dreamed
about making eggs.
3
00:00:14,082 --> 00:00:15,416
And now he's making eggs.
4
00:00:15,516 --> 00:00:17,551
I hang out with Jay
in his dreams sometimes.
5
00:00:17,651 --> 00:00:19,019
And I flew to Geneva last week.
6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:20,721
We all have our powers.
7
00:00:20,821 --> 00:00:22,390
Oh, gosh.
Didn't see you there, Hetty.
8
00:00:22,490 --> 00:00:23,491
Sorry.
(grumbles)
9
00:00:23,591 --> 00:00:24,958
Jay, guess what.
10
00:00:25,059 --> 00:00:27,295
Somebody wants to rent out
the ballroom, and this time
11
00:00:27,395 --> 00:00:29,230
it's not people
who want to shoot a porno.
12
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:30,764
I still think you should
have let that play out.
13
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:32,200
The script was good.
14
00:00:32,333 --> 00:00:33,867
That's incredible.
Who wants to rent it out?
15
00:00:34,001 --> 00:00:35,436
The Hudson Valley Players.
16
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:37,705
They're the premier
community theater organization
17
00:00:37,805 --> 00:00:39,540
in all of Ulster County.
18
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,275
Recently nominated for a Toby.
19
00:00:41,375 --> 00:00:42,743
You mean a Tony?
Oh, similar,
20
00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:44,612
but these are just
for the Hudson Valley,
21
00:00:44,712 --> 00:00:46,747
and the winners are chosen
by a guy named Toby.
22
00:00:46,847 --> 00:00:48,149
Sounds prestigious.
23
00:00:48,249 --> 00:00:51,051
Anyway, they needed a venue
for their fall musical,
24
00:00:51,185 --> 00:00:54,187
and all of the good ones
were taken, so they chose us.
25
00:00:54,188 --> 00:00:56,424
They're doing Cole Porter's
Anything Goes.
26
00:00:56,557 --> 00:00:57,958
Oh, I knew Cole.
27
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:01,028
Had a big thing for me.
Practically obsessed.
28
00:01:01,129 --> 00:01:02,730
Wasn't he, like, famously gay?
29
00:01:02,830 --> 00:01:04,197
You couldn't just
let me have that, Trev?
30
00:01:04,198 --> 00:01:06,234
Wait, Sam, wasn't
Anything Goes the musical
31
00:01:06,367 --> 00:01:07,801
you were almost in
in high school?
32
00:01:07,901 --> 00:01:10,838
Some people say listening
is my real ghost power.
33
00:01:10,938 --> 00:01:12,540
I was tech crew.
Should have been the lead,
34
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,275
but, you know, politics.
35
00:01:14,408 --> 00:01:16,009
Oh, yeah, you got robbed, babe.
36
00:01:16,110 --> 00:01:17,578
Okay, that felt obligatory.
37
00:01:17,678 --> 00:01:19,880
JAY:
And I heard the lighting
38
00:01:19,980 --> 00:01:21,848
was the best part of the show
that year.
39
00:01:21,849 --> 00:01:23,651
Ugh. So patronizing.
40
00:01:23,751 --> 00:01:25,319

Jay, if I could just stop you.
When I'm in this space,

a top five wife for Bruce,

Which means she would have
gotten carrots with dinner.

Wow. This is a

You think this is impressive?

This is nothing compared

on the set of L&O.
75
00:02:59,447 --> 00:03:00,681
Law and Order.
76
00:03:00,814 --> 00:03:02,182
You were on Law and Order?
77
00:03:02,316 --> 00:03:04,252
SCOTT:
Not in the final cut, but...
78
00:03:04,352 --> 00:03:06,118
yeah, I was there.
79
00:03:06,119 --> 00:03:09,690
They called it craft services.
80
00:03:09,790 --> 00:03:12,893
And it offered every culinary
creation under the sun.
81
00:03:12,993 --> 00:03:14,794
Hot foods,
82
00:03:14,795 --> 00:03:16,162
cold foods,

Two-time Toby-nominated
director.
87
00:03:24,171 --> 00:03:27,908
And assistant sales manager
at Davenport Chevrolet.
88
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:29,710
Oh, I'm not really
in the market.
89
00:03:29,810 --> 00:03:31,211
That's what everyone says
90
00:03:31,312 --> 00:03:34,114
until they feel the smooth
ride of the new Malibu.
91
00:03:34,214 --> 00:03:35,549
I'm so sorry, Scott.
92
00:03:35,649 --> 00:03:36,983
I have something
you need to see.
93
00:03:36,984 --> 00:03:38,919
ISAAC:
Hamilton used to wear
a lot of scarves.
94
00:03:39,019 --> 00:03:41,821
Turns out he was covering up
adulterous hickeys.
95
00:03:41,822 --> 00:03:44,057
(chuckles)
That man frequented whores.
96
00:03:44,157 --> 00:03:46,394
My friends.
Attention, please.
97
00:03:46,494 --> 00:03:50,063
It is with a heavy heart
I must inform you
98
00:03:50,163 --> 00:03:53,367
that our beloved leading lady
Brenda Hanover
99
00:03:53,467 --> 00:03:54,435
is no longer with us.
100
00:03:54,568 --> 00:03:56,370
(all gasping)
101
00:03:56,470 --> 00:03:58,238
She was unable to secure
102
00:03:58,339 --> 00:03:59,840
time off from her job at Lowe's
103
00:03:59,940 --> 00:04:03,444
and is stepping down
from her role as Reno Sweeney.
104
00:04:03,544 --> 00:04:06,347
He did not need to deliver
that information like that.
105
00:04:06,447 --> 00:04:08,115
That is how you
milk a moment.
106
00:04:08,215 --> 00:04:10,618
I could take the part.
107
00:04:10,718 --> 00:04:11,952
Ooh, immediately
trying to take advantage
108
00:04:12,052 --> 00:04:13,253
of someone else's misfortune.
109
00:04:13,354 --> 00:04:14,788
(chuckles)
I like her.
110
00:04:14,888 --> 00:04:16,424
Thank you, Marisa.
111
00:04:16,524 --> 00:04:19,427
But it will be
an open competition.
112
00:04:19,527 --> 00:04:21,695
We shall hold auditions
113
00:04:21,795 --> 00:04:24,532
for the role
of Reno Sweeney Monday. Jay.
114
00:04:24,632 --> 00:04:26,233
Huh?
I need to print
115
00:04:26,334 --> 00:04:27,468
a sign-up sheet. Please,
116
00:04:27,601 --> 00:04:28,902
take me to the
business center.
117
00:04:29,002 --> 00:04:32,272
I... got a laptop
in the kitchen.
118
00:04:32,406 --> 00:04:33,873
Then to the kitchen.
119
00:04:33,874 --> 00:04:37,645
So, tell me, what are you
currently driving?
120
00:04:37,745 --> 00:04:40,481
Sam, isn't Reno Sweeney the role
you wanted in high school?
121
00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:41,982
You should audition.
122
00:04:42,082 --> 00:04:45,285
Me? No. This isn't
some rinky-dink production.
123
00:04:45,386 --> 00:04:47,053
This is
the Hudson Valley Players.
124
00:04:47,054 --> 00:04:48,456
They performed at the mall.
125
00:04:48,589 --> 00:04:50,858
Come on, Sam.
Do you know what I would give
126
00:04:50,958 --> 00:04:53,594
for just one more minute
back in the spotlight?
127
00:04:53,694 --> 00:04:55,261
This is your dream.
128
00:04:55,262 --> 00:04:57,130
How are you just gonna stand
there and let it pass you by?
129
00:04:57,230 --> 00:05:00,067
Look, I appreciate the support,
but I'm really not interested.
130
00:05:00,167 --> 00:05:01,969
But, Sam...
I said no.
131
00:05:02,102 --> 00:05:03,704
Okay? Just leave it alone.
132
00:05:03,804 --> 00:05:07,073
I'm just saying, bring
that drama to the stage.
133
00:05:07,074 --> 00:05:08,742
Mm.
(sighs)
134
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:23,190
ERNIE JOHNSON:
And now, this year's winner
of the James Beard Award
135
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:25,493
for Best New Chef, Northeast...
Stop.
136
00:05:25,626 --> 00:05:27,495
Jay Arondeker!
137
00:05:27,595 --> 00:05:29,363
Here you go, Chef.
138
00:05:30,197 --> 00:05:32,132
I just want to thank everyone
who believed in me.
139
00:05:32,232 --> 00:05:35,503
And to my mom, Champa--
I owe everything to you.
140
00:05:35,603 --> 00:05:36,737
AUDIENCE: Aw.
(orchestral begins playing)
141
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:38,471
Seriously?
Walk-off music?
142
00:05:38,472 --> 00:05:40,440
This is my dream.
143
00:05:40,441 --> 00:05:42,142
Right this way, Mr. Arondekar.
144
00:05:42,242 --> 00:05:43,511
Hold up.
Isn't that the lady
145
00:05:43,611 --> 00:05:44,944
from the community
theater group?
146
00:05:44,945 --> 00:05:46,346
Interesting, Jay.
147
00:05:46,447 --> 00:05:48,516
She just popped into my head.
(chuckles)
148
00:05:48,649 --> 00:05:51,652
You can't control a pop.
People pop!
149
00:05:51,752 --> 00:05:52,953
Hey, I'm Marisa.
150
00:05:53,053 --> 00:05:54,922
Oh, uh... hi.
151
00:05:55,022 --> 00:05:56,490
Sasappis.
152
00:05:56,590 --> 00:05:58,692
You look good in a tux.
(weak chuckle)
153
00:05:58,826 --> 00:06:00,827
What is happening?
You heard the music.
Walk off, son.
154
00:06:00,828 --> 00:06:03,196
(gasps)
Unless you want me to tell Sam
that you didn't thank her.
155
00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:05,032
This is so lame.
156
00:06:05,132 --> 00:06:07,267
Again, my dream.
157
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:09,269
Your hair is amazing.
158
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:11,371
Never once used conditioner.
159
00:06:11,472 --> 00:06:13,806
Yeah.
'Cause I died 500 years ago.
160
00:06:13,807 --> 00:06:15,509
(laughs)
161
00:06:15,609 --> 00:06:17,678
You're funny.
Oh.
162
00:06:17,778 --> 00:06:20,213
Hi.
Hi.
163
00:06:21,248 --> 00:06:22,249
Hi.
164
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:23,551
Hi. (chuckles)
165
00:06:23,651 --> 00:06:25,152
(chuckles softly)
166
00:06:25,252 --> 00:06:26,486
Hi.
167
00:06:26,487 --> 00:06:28,556
ALBERTA:
Sam, what happened yesterday
168
00:06:28,656 --> 00:06:29,723
with you storming off
like that?
169
00:06:29,823 --> 00:06:31,158
I just didn't want to audition.
170
00:06:31,258 --> 00:06:33,159
That's all.
I have a lot going on right now.
171
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,129
Yeah, it's true.
There was that guest last month.
172
00:06:36,229 --> 00:06:39,166
And there's the weekly sorting
of the mail on Wednesdays.
173
00:06:39,266 --> 00:06:40,734
And I'm trying
to support you, Sam,
174
00:06:40,834 --> 00:06:42,570
but you have the calendar
of a retiree.
175
00:06:42,703 --> 00:06:45,072
ALBERTA:
You know this role and
you're dying to play it.
176
00:06:45,172 --> 00:06:46,506
Hell, you would've played it
in high school
177
00:06:46,507 --> 00:06:47,741
if it wasn't for politics.
178
00:06:47,875 --> 00:06:50,944
Well, that's
not completely true.
179
00:06:54,381 --> 00:06:59,152
I will be singing the song
"I Get A Kick Out of You."
180
00:07:01,054 --> 00:07:02,956
(retches)
MAN: My pants!
181
00:07:03,924 --> 00:07:05,493
So it wasn't politics.
I mean,
182
00:07:05,593 --> 00:07:06,560
some of the puke splashed on
183
00:07:06,660 --> 00:07:07,728
the student council president.
184
00:07:07,828 --> 00:07:09,262
So that was sort of political.
185
00:07:09,362 --> 00:07:11,999
I once vomited
in James Madison's carriage.
186
00:07:12,099 --> 00:07:14,101
In fairness, we were
traversing a bumpy road
187
00:07:14,234 --> 00:07:16,303
and I had just had
a pheasant pie.
188
00:07:16,403 --> 00:07:17,605
It was humiliating.
189
00:07:17,705 --> 00:07:19,906
After that, I moved
to tech crew and...
190
00:07:19,907 --> 00:07:21,942
I've been terrified
to get on stage ever since.
191
00:07:22,042 --> 00:07:24,478
Oh, Sam. you can't let
one bad performance
192
00:07:24,612 --> 00:07:26,046
get in the way of your dreams.
193
00:07:26,146 --> 00:07:29,215
Girl, I fell into the music
pit once at the Red Cat.
194
00:07:29,216 --> 00:07:30,583
Got my head stuck in a tuba.
195
00:07:30,584 --> 00:07:32,218
But was I back on stage
the next day?
196
00:07:32,219 --> 00:07:33,286
Damn right I was.
197
00:07:33,386 --> 00:07:34,822
Nursing a concussion
198
00:07:34,922 --> 00:07:37,157
and drowning
in bathtub gin.
199
00:07:37,257 --> 00:07:38,959
They said I gave
one hell of a show,
200
00:07:39,059 --> 00:07:41,662
but I don't really remember.
201
00:07:41,762 --> 00:07:43,731
But what if I audition
and things go
202
00:07:43,831 --> 00:07:45,298
just as badly
as they did the last time?
203
00:07:45,398 --> 00:07:46,733
ALBERTA:
You just need confidence.
204
00:07:46,734 --> 00:07:49,603
And confidence is all about
feeling prepared.
205
00:07:49,703 --> 00:07:51,171
Let me take you under my wing.
206
00:07:51,271 --> 00:07:53,573
Alberta Haynes knows just
how to get you there.
207
00:07:53,574 --> 00:07:54,675
You'd really do that for me?
208
00:07:54,808 --> 00:07:57,109
I mean, I'm
pretty busy, but
209
00:07:57,110 --> 00:07:59,079
I think I can
make some time.
210
00:07:59,980 --> 00:08:01,515
Okay, what the heck?
211
00:08:01,649 --> 00:08:03,651
Thanks, Alberta.
You're a good friend.
212
00:08:03,751 --> 00:08:07,154
Hey. We're gonna
have a lot of fun.
213
00:08:09,890 --> 00:08:12,726
(imitates alarm blaring)
214
00:08:12,826 --> 00:08:13,961
W-What time is it?
215
00:08:14,061 --> 00:08:15,162
It's time to get your ass
out of bed.
216
00:08:15,262 --> 00:08:17,064
Your training starts now.
217
00:08:17,164 --> 00:08:18,165
But it's 4:00 a.m.
218
00:08:18,265 --> 00:08:19,567
That'll be ten more laps.
219
00:08:19,667 --> 00:08:21,434
There's gonna be laps?
SASAPPIS: Hey.
220
00:08:21,535 --> 00:08:22,836
Can you keep it down?
221
00:08:22,936 --> 00:08:24,572
I'm trying to enter
your husband's dreams.
222
00:08:24,672 --> 00:08:26,139
Sorry.
Thank you.
223
00:08:26,239 --> 00:08:28,175
We all have to live here.
224
00:08:28,275 --> 00:08:30,043
(sighs)
225
00:08:36,016 --> 00:08:37,350
Hey, can I ask you
guys for advice?
226
00:08:37,450 --> 00:08:40,387
Absolutely. Stay away
from the brown acid.
227
00:08:40,487 --> 00:08:42,790
Thank you. But, uh,
it's more dating-related.
228
00:08:42,890 --> 00:08:43,891
Okay.
229
00:08:44,024 --> 00:08:45,859
Don't date any members
of Fleetwood Mac.
230
00:08:45,993 --> 00:08:47,627
TREVOR:
Sass. What's going on?
231
00:08:47,628 --> 00:08:48,628
Who are you dating?
232
00:08:48,629 --> 00:08:49,863
Well, you actually know her.
233
00:08:49,997 --> 00:08:51,732
Remember that hot
stretching lady
234
00:08:51,865 --> 00:08:53,734
from the theater troupe, Marisa?
235
00:08:53,867 --> 00:08:56,403
Wait, did a light
actually fall on her?
236
00:08:56,503 --> 00:08:58,205
Was there any damage
to the punim?
237
00:08:58,305 --> 00:08:59,907
She's not dead. Okay,
238
00:09:00,007 --> 00:09:01,308
this is gonna sound
a little nuts,
239
00:09:01,408 --> 00:09:03,810
but we hung out in Jay's dream.
240
00:09:03,811 --> 00:09:07,114
So you're dating someone in
another person's subconscious?
241
00:09:07,214 --> 00:09:09,382
I don't think
I've even gone there.
242
00:09:09,482 --> 00:09:11,150
Yeah, this is a
little unorthodox.
243
00:09:11,151 --> 00:09:13,621
Well, hey, he... the guy's
got limited options.
244
00:09:13,721 --> 00:09:16,188
We're ghosts, we can't even
leave the property.
Well...
245
00:09:16,189 --> 00:09:18,091
Pete, no.
SASAPPIS:
There's only one problem.
246
00:09:18,191 --> 00:09:20,227
So, I went into Jay's dream
last night to see her again,
247
00:09:20,327 --> 00:09:21,895
but she wasn't there.
248
00:09:22,029 --> 00:09:24,297
It was just Jay
trapped in a walk-in freezer
249
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:26,099
with the '86 Mets.
250
00:09:26,233 --> 00:09:28,034
Oh, well, that makes sense,
'cause he was talking to Mark
251
00:09:28,035 --> 00:09:29,603
about the freezer
and then he watched
252
00:09:29,703 --> 00:09:31,772
that baseball
documentary before bed.
Yes.
253
00:09:31,872 --> 00:09:33,540
You just need to get him
to think about Marisa
254
00:09:33,641 --> 00:09:34,742
before he goes to sleep.
255
00:09:34,842 --> 00:09:36,576
Yeah, just tell Sam
to ask her husband
256
00:09:36,677 --> 00:09:40,447
to think about that hot,
bendy lady right before bed.
257
00:09:40,547 --> 00:09:42,548
I might not
use those exact words.
258
00:09:42,549 --> 00:09:44,551
Probably a good strategy.
Eh.
259
00:09:44,652 --> 00:09:46,253
ALBERTA:
Sam, this is gonna be
260
00:09:46,353 --> 00:09:47,821
the hardest day of your life.
261
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:49,589
I'm here to break you down
262
00:09:49,690 --> 00:09:51,124
and build you back up again.
263
00:09:51,258 --> 00:09:52,425
And why are they here?
264
00:09:52,525 --> 00:09:54,928
We're bored.
And we believe in you and stuff.
265
00:09:55,028 --> 00:09:57,364
So, what exactly
does this entail?
266
00:09:57,464 --> 00:10:00,366
I'm gonna train your mind,
your body and your soul.
267
00:10:00,367 --> 00:10:02,970
There will be moments
when you won't want to go on,
268
00:10:03,070 --> 00:10:04,304
but go on you will.
269
00:10:04,404 --> 00:10:05,939
By the time
I'm through with you,
270
00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:09,777
you'll be so prepared,
you won't know how to fail.
271
00:10:09,910 --> 00:10:11,311
Get her, Berty.
272
00:10:11,411 --> 00:10:13,180
I mean, let's go, Sam!
273
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,250
Dancers need perfect posture.
274
00:10:19,853 --> 00:10:21,789
Again.
275
00:10:21,922 --> 00:10:26,293
And any actor worth her salt
can cry on cue.
276
00:10:26,426 --> 00:10:28,461
Mm...
I don't see any tears.
277
00:10:28,595 --> 00:10:29,963
Mm, this might help.
278
00:10:30,097 --> 00:10:32,733
Your mother's dead and
your business is a failure!
279
00:10:33,466 --> 00:10:35,468
Still no tears.
It was a good thought.
280
00:10:35,568 --> 00:10:36,369
Yeah.
281
00:10:36,469 --> 00:10:38,771
♪ La, la, la, la ♪
282
00:10:38,772 --> 00:10:40,239
♪ La, la, la, la... ♪
283
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,744
Singing is about endurance
and breath control!
284
00:10:43,844 --> 00:10:45,078
Let's expand
those lungs!
285
00:10:45,178 --> 00:10:46,847
Can I have a water?
Of course
you can,
286
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:48,515
in 80 more laps.
Ugh!
287
00:10:48,615 --> 00:10:51,184
Ooh, gave her a little hope
and then snatched it away.
288
00:10:51,284 --> 00:10:52,152
Well done.
289
00:10:52,285 --> 00:10:54,822
(grunting)
290
00:10:54,922 --> 00:10:56,622
How's it going
with Alberta, babe?
291
00:10:56,623 --> 00:10:59,592
Well, I cried twice, but
not when I was supposed to.
292
00:10:59,693 --> 00:11:02,261
Sam, I need you to get Jay
to dream about that Marisa girl
293
00:11:02,262 --> 00:11:03,963
from the community theater
group again tonight.
294
00:11:03,964 --> 00:11:06,934
Jay, did you have a dream
about that girl Marisa?
295
00:11:07,034 --> 00:11:10,136
You can't control
a pop-in, okay?
296
00:11:10,137 --> 00:11:12,272
Damn it, Sass.
297
00:11:12,372 --> 00:11:13,605
Okay, a couple nights ago,
298
00:11:13,606 --> 00:11:15,208
I was hanging out
in Jay's dream,
299
00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:16,576
and Marisa popped in.
300
00:11:16,676 --> 00:11:17,845
It was very innocent
on Jay's part,
301
00:11:17,945 --> 00:11:19,780
but Marisa and I--
302
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,715
uh, we kind of hit it off.
303
00:11:21,849 --> 00:11:23,816
Aw. Weird,
but aw.
304
00:11:23,817 --> 00:11:24,718
The problem is--
305
00:11:24,852 --> 00:11:25,919
and you'll like this--
306
00:11:26,019 --> 00:11:26,986
Jay hasn't dreamed
about her since,
307
00:11:26,987 --> 00:11:28,821
but I need him to
308
00:11:28,822 --> 00:11:30,656
if I'm gonna hang out
with her again.
309
00:11:30,657 --> 00:11:32,525
Larry Bird popped in last week.
(scoffs)
310
00:11:32,659 --> 00:11:33,927
Don't have a thing for him.
311
00:11:34,027 --> 00:11:36,196
Okay. So, what's the
action item here, Sass?
312
00:11:36,296 --> 00:11:38,866
Okay, I need you
to encourage Jay
313
00:11:38,999 --> 00:11:40,600
to think about Marisa
before he goes to sleep.
314
00:11:40,700 --> 00:11:42,535
Obviously, that doesn't
guarantee an appearance,
315
00:11:42,635 --> 00:11:44,337
but it's worth a shot.
316
00:11:44,437 --> 00:11:47,707
Okay. Jay, before you
go to bed tonight,
317
00:11:47,808 --> 00:11:49,641
I want you to think
about Marisa,
318
00:11:49,642 --> 00:11:52,612
so Sass can hang out
with her again.
319
00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:54,647
We're in weird territory here.
320
00:11:54,748 --> 00:11:55,816
Yeah.
321
00:11:55,916 --> 00:11:57,851
Let's get back to it, Sam!
322
00:11:57,951 --> 00:12:00,453
We got 24 hours
till our big audition.
323
00:12:00,553 --> 00:12:02,855
Alberta, I don't know
if this is going so well.
324
00:12:02,856 --> 00:12:05,825
Sam, as bad as you're
feeling right now,
325
00:12:05,826 --> 00:12:07,394
and as much as you're hurting,
326
00:12:07,494 --> 00:12:09,162
it'll all be worth it
when you're up on that stage.
327
00:12:09,262 --> 00:12:12,232
There's nothing in the world
like that feeling.
328
00:12:12,332 --> 00:12:13,466
We can get there, Sam,
329
00:12:13,566 --> 00:12:15,568
but I need you to believe
in yourself,
330
00:12:15,702 --> 00:12:17,570
because I believe in you.
JAY: Sam,
331
00:12:17,704 --> 00:12:19,372
where are all our plates?

00:12:24,411 --> 00:12:25,678

00:12:59,712 --> 00:13:01,581
to look at
Marisa's Instagram,
353
00:13:01,681 --> 00:13:03,249
but spring break
2018?
354
00:13:03,250 --> 00:13:04,551
It's for Sass.
355
00:13:04,651 --> 00:13:05,785
Why are you all zoomed in?
356
00:13:05,886 --> 00:13:07,420
Well, I-I wanted to avoid
357
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,790
any of her sorority sisters
popping in. (scoffs)
358
00:13:10,924 --> 00:13:12,459
For Sass.
359
00:13:12,592 --> 00:13:14,327
ALBERTA:
Guys,
360
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:15,495
we have a big problem.
361
00:13:15,628 --> 00:13:16,897
I just came from
the ballroom,
362
00:13:16,997 --> 00:13:18,665
I saw Marisa warming up.
363
00:13:18,765 --> 00:13:20,732
Sam's competition for that role.
Ooh-wee!
364
00:13:20,733 --> 00:13:22,169
She got a voice of an angel.
365
00:13:22,302 --> 00:13:25,237
Well, I guess Sam will
just have to give it her best.
366
00:13:25,238 --> 00:13:26,806
That's all you can do.
367
00:13:26,907 --> 00:13:29,442
No, it's not all we can do,
you peace-loving freak.
368
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:33,013
We've come too far
and we're too close.
369
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,315
I ain't gonna let
this part get away.
370
00:13:35,448 --> 00:13:38,818
It's time for Berty
to play dirty.
371
00:13:38,952 --> 00:13:41,087
Guess who saw
his dream girl last night?
372
00:13:41,088 --> 00:13:44,057
All right!
Awesome, man.
Give us some deets.
373
00:13:44,157 --> 00:13:45,758
Aw, we just hung out and talked.
374
00:13:45,859 --> 00:13:47,327
She's got a lot
of fun interests.
375
00:13:47,460 --> 00:13:49,128
Very into superheroes.
PETE: Huh.
376
00:13:49,129 --> 00:13:50,296
That's unexpected.
Yeah.
377
00:13:50,297 --> 00:13:51,999
And big Star Wars girl, too.
378
00:13:52,132 --> 00:13:54,334
And sneakers.
She loves sneakers.
379
00:13:54,434 --> 00:13:55,502
And the New York Knicks.
380
00:13:55,602 --> 00:13:57,704
Oh, boy.
What?
381
00:13:57,804 --> 00:14:00,640
Is her favorite restaurant Sonic
and does she love D&D?
382
00:14:00,740 --> 00:14:02,342
Yes on both counts.
383
00:14:03,410 --> 00:14:05,545
Those are all
Jay's interests.
384
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:07,514
You're not dating Marisa, Sass.
385
00:14:07,614 --> 00:14:09,182
You're dating Jay.
386
00:14:10,083 --> 00:14:11,518
(laughing): No, no, no.
387
00:14:11,651 --> 00:14:13,285
It does make a lot of sense.
I mean, she exists
388
00:14:13,286 --> 00:14:14,888
entirely in Jay's subconscious.
389
00:14:14,988 --> 00:14:17,257
Okay, you guys are just jealous
because I found someone.
390
00:14:17,357 --> 00:14:19,392
If anything, I'm jealous
that you're dating Jay.
391
00:14:19,526 --> 00:14:20,826
D-Did he mention me?
I mean, did...
392
00:14:20,827 --> 00:14:22,029
Sorry, did she mention me?
393
00:14:22,129 --> 00:14:23,795
I'm not dating Jay, okay?
394
00:14:23,796 --> 00:14:26,833
Marisa is her own person
who has her own cool interests.
395
00:14:26,934 --> 00:14:30,170
How many times did she reference
The Shawshank Redemption?
396
00:14:31,304 --> 00:14:33,073
Oh, my God, I'm dating Jay.
397
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,975
Red leather, yellow leather,
lavender leather.
398
00:14:35,976 --> 00:14:38,211
Red leather, yellow
leather, lavender leather.
399
00:14:38,311 --> 00:14:40,647
What animal makes
lavender leather, I wonder?
400
00:14:40,747 --> 00:14:43,416
Hm. Hippopotamus dries
to a purplish hue.
401
00:14:43,516 --> 00:14:44,784
We had an ottoman.
402
00:14:44,884 --> 00:14:46,886
Oh, a "hippopottoman."
That's fun.
(chuckles)
403
00:14:46,987 --> 00:14:49,522
Ten minutes, Samantha.
I'll see you in the ballroom.
404
00:14:49,622 --> 00:14:53,260
You have one chance to wow
me and one chance only,
405
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,328
because I have
Chevrolets to sell.
406
00:14:55,428 --> 00:14:58,065
You're gonna get that promotion.
I need less from you, Jeff.
407
00:14:58,165 --> 00:15:00,032
(sighs) Great note.
408
00:15:00,033 --> 00:15:02,435
How you feeling, Sam?
Like a star?
409
00:15:02,569 --> 00:15:03,869
I'm ready. (chuckles)
410
00:15:03,870 --> 00:15:05,504
I know my tap routine,
my song. I got this.
411
00:15:05,505 --> 00:15:08,741
Awesome. Now, Alberta,
when do I walk through Marisa?
412
00:15:08,841 --> 00:15:10,177
What?
413
00:15:10,277 --> 00:15:11,911
Oh, Alberta told me
to walk through your competition
414
00:15:12,045 --> 00:15:14,380
so she'd get super high
and mess up.
(weak chuckle)
415
00:15:14,381 --> 00:15:15,782
There goes our girl again.
416
00:15:15,915 --> 00:15:17,849
What else did she say?
Oh, yeah, don't tell Sam.
417
00:15:17,850 --> 00:15:19,851
But you said you believed in me.
ALBERTA: I do.
418
00:15:19,852 --> 00:15:21,588
It's just a little
insurance policy.
419
00:15:21,688 --> 00:15:24,424
Yeah, because you didn't think
I could do it on my own.
420
00:15:24,524 --> 00:15:27,059
I can't believe this.
I thought you were my friend.
421
00:15:27,060 --> 00:15:28,895
(both gasp)
HETTY: In retrospect,
422
00:15:28,996 --> 00:15:31,264
perhaps not the best
idea to entrust Flower
423
00:15:31,398 --> 00:15:32,765
with your secret mission.
424
00:15:32,865 --> 00:15:34,567
Yeah, you really messed up.
425
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:41,674
Can we talk?
426
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:43,010
Well, I'm pretty busy
427
00:15:43,110 --> 00:15:44,577
setting up snacks
for the cast right now.
428
00:15:44,677 --> 00:15:46,846
Though I'm probably not even
qualified to do that.
429
00:15:46,946 --> 00:15:47,947
That's not true.
430
00:15:48,081 --> 00:15:50,083
Although I do think the chips
431
00:15:50,183 --> 00:15:51,618
should go closer to the dip.
432
00:15:51,751 --> 00:15:53,286
Is this what
you wanted to talk about?
433
00:15:53,386 --> 00:15:55,388
No.
I owe you an apology.
434
00:15:55,488 --> 00:15:57,991
I went too far.
And what I realized is
435
00:15:58,091 --> 00:16:00,359
I wasn't just
trying to help you.
436
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,095
I was also doing this for me.
437
00:16:02,195 --> 00:16:03,163
What does that mean?
438
00:16:03,263 --> 00:16:04,764
I miss the
limelight, Sam.
439
00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:08,101
When I was alive and I was
up there singing? (chuckles)
440
00:16:08,201 --> 00:16:10,270
Well, that's the most alive
I've ever felt.
441
00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:13,373
And you getting that part,
I think, in some small way,
442
00:16:13,473 --> 00:16:15,675
was gonna make me feel
like I was on stage.
443
00:16:15,775 --> 00:16:18,678
And I know I got
a little carried away
444
00:16:18,778 --> 00:16:20,579
because...
(clicks tongue)
445
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:23,683
I just wanted it so bad.
For both of us.
446
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:25,985
But that wasn't the way
that I wanted to win the part.
447
00:16:26,086 --> 00:16:27,287
I know, Sam,
448
00:16:27,387 --> 00:16:29,421
and I'm sorry.
I wasn't thinking straight.
449
00:16:29,422 --> 00:16:31,258
And what would make
all this even worse
450
00:16:31,358 --> 00:16:35,162
is if my actions prevented you
from getting to live your dream.
451
00:16:37,064 --> 00:16:38,565
Oh, there you are.
452
00:16:38,665 --> 00:16:40,833
Scott's looking
for you.
453
00:16:40,967 --> 00:16:42,768
We don't make Scott wait.
454
00:16:42,769 --> 00:16:44,504
ALBERTA:
Sam,
455
00:16:44,637 --> 00:16:48,175
whatever you do, I think
you're a star either way.
456
00:16:50,677 --> 00:16:53,346
(sighs)
It's just so pathetic.
457
00:16:53,446 --> 00:16:55,482
I was so desperate
to be with someone,
458
00:16:55,582 --> 00:16:57,616
to have a connection,
that I got excited
459
00:16:57,617 --> 00:16:59,652
about a figment
of Jay's imagination.
460
00:16:59,786 --> 00:17:01,821
You're being
too hard on yourself.
461
00:17:01,921 --> 00:17:03,656
This one time, I ate
too many shrooms
462
00:17:03,790 --> 00:17:06,593
and dated a saguaro cactus
for, like, a week.
463
00:17:06,693 --> 00:17:09,429
He was sweet.
Great listener.
464
00:17:09,529 --> 00:17:11,631
It's nice of you guys
to try to cheer me up, but
465
00:17:11,731 --> 00:17:13,233
let's face it: I'm alone.
466
00:17:13,333 --> 00:17:15,001
And I'm never
gonna meet anyone new.
467
00:17:15,135 --> 00:17:17,337
You may not be able
to find someone,
468
00:17:17,437 --> 00:17:18,937
but maybe I can.
469
00:17:18,938 --> 00:17:22,109
Maybe it's time I start to use
my power to help others.
470
00:17:22,209 --> 00:17:24,177
For the less fortunate,
the housebounds.
471
00:17:24,277 --> 00:17:26,879
Even when he's being nice,
it's just so smug.
472
00:17:26,979 --> 00:17:28,881
Sass, I will search
far and wide,
473
00:17:28,981 --> 00:17:31,017
and I will find someone
who's not bound to a property.
474
00:17:31,118 --> 00:17:33,019
I mean, there's got to be others
out there like me,
475
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:34,320
and I'll bring one back to you.
476
00:17:34,321 --> 00:17:37,123
Like some kind of
spectral pimp.
477
00:17:37,124 --> 00:17:38,990
Matchmaker, maybe, is more
what I was thinking.
478
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:40,727
Wait, really, Pete?
You'd do that for me?
479
00:17:40,860 --> 00:17:41,994
It would be my honor.
480
00:17:42,095 --> 00:17:44,464
Hey, if you come across
any non-housebound
481
00:17:44,564 --> 00:17:46,465
dead Dallas Cowboy
cheerleaders, could you...
482
00:17:46,466 --> 00:17:48,201
Hey, he's looking for me, man.
483
00:17:48,301 --> 00:17:49,469
I can't put an order in?
484
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:50,970
I'm just saying,
if he sees one.
485
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:54,040
You don't even know
what those are. Selfish.
486
00:17:54,141 --> 00:17:57,043
Last call for Samantha?
487
00:17:57,144 --> 00:17:59,045
Samantha?
488
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:03,315
Sorry I'm late, I was...
I don't need excuses.
489
00:18:03,316 --> 00:18:04,917
I need excellence.
490
00:18:05,051 --> 00:18:06,119
ALBERTA:
Yes!
491
00:18:06,219 --> 00:18:07,720
Give 'em hell, Sam!
492
00:18:08,755 --> 00:18:10,056
(plays "Anything Goes")
493
00:18:15,395 --> 00:18:16,896
Oh, dear.
She's gonna blow.
494
00:18:16,996 --> 00:18:19,832
And she stress-ate
all those Twizzlers earlier.
495
00:18:19,932 --> 00:18:21,801
It's gonna look like
a crime scene in here.
496
00:18:24,737 --> 00:18:26,439
Listen to me, Sam.
497
00:18:26,573 --> 00:18:28,507
Forget about all
these people watching.
498
00:18:28,508 --> 00:18:31,478

ISAAC:
So, this is Alberta
527
00:19:37,043 --> 00:19:39,077
not making it
about herself?
528
00:19:39,078 --> 00:19:41,013
Baby steps.
529
00:19:51,824 --> 00:19:53,260
(laughs)
530
00:19:54,661 --> 00:19:57,230
(cheering, applause)
531
00:20:01,668 --> 00:20:03,002
Sam, you really knocked
their socks off.
532
00:20:03,102 --> 00:20:04,236
Oh, could you sing it
again for us?
533
00:20:04,237 --> 00:20:05,404
(whispering):
Oh, I'd love to, Flower,
534
00:20:05,405 --> 00:20:06,572
but I'm on vocal rest.
535
00:20:06,573 --> 00:20:08,641
We're only halfway
through our season.
536
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:10,510
Of two performances.
537
00:20:10,610 --> 00:20:12,411
Babe, you were
incredible.
538
00:20:12,412 --> 00:20:15,515
Sweetie, would you fetch me
another hot water with lemon?
539
00:20:15,615 --> 00:20:17,016
I need to soothe my instrument.
540
00:20:17,149 --> 00:20:19,585
Alberta, I fear
you've created a monster.
541
00:20:19,586 --> 00:20:21,254
She's insufferable.
542
00:20:22,355 --> 00:20:23,623
I'm so proud.
