[Danny] We're on our way.
[siren wailing]
It's a leafy little town.
[Jim] Danny and I are heading to a Blues Brothers show,
and we're not far out from the parkers
that I signed up with last year in Michigan, Sunset Coasts.
So, I convinced Danny, let's stop by,
let's see how the seeds that I gave them are doing,
and see how the dispensary looks with our product.
[tires screeching]
[engine revs]
-[Danny] Wow, look at that. -[Jim] Nice.
[car door shuts]
[Danny] Oh.
Here you go.
[Danny] What is this?
[Nick] This is the air shower.
This is for quality control.
We keep all pests
and other nasty environmental issues out of here.
As soon as this door closes, you guys will be blown away.
[Danny] No, really?
[door closes]
[dramatic music playing]
[bleep]
Holy [bleep].
That was special.
[theme music playing]
Hey guys, I'm late, sorry.
How are you?
Oh, wait, wait, wait, a month of hair?
What? What do you mean?
You look like Elvis Presley, what did you do?
Last week, I was with Jim in the car,
and he turned on the radio,
there was a podcast with Jim, he did an interview.
[Mike speaking]
[Jim speaking]
[Mike speaking]
[Mary speaking]
[Mike speaking]
-[Mary speaking] -[Jim laughing]
[Mary speaking]
[Jim speaking]
-[Jim speaking] -[all laughing]
You know, we jab each other, but...
Not on a national podcast.
I'd never do that to him, ever.
What do you care? What-What difference does it make to you?
[Jim exclaims] I don't care. I just, it's-it's...
I-I like it, I think it, I think...
-It's good. It's very natural. -Thank you. See?
-It's just-- -Thank you, Danny.
-Just uh-- -It does look unique.
People say, "Oh Aykroyd, do you dye your hair?" I don't.
I'll have nice hair when I'm dead.
Nick, what do you think of his hair?
You know, when we talk about quality, it's a 100% black.
-So it's-- very consistent. -[scoffs]
[Nick] Kinda lines up with the facility.
-[Jim] Yeah. [laughs] -[Nick] Yeah.
[Jim] Well I wanna see the growth of our plants.
You, should catch up with Danny about what's going on here.
Let's go check it out.
Yeah, I missed a lot.
Come on, Jim. Stop.
-You did the eyebrows too? -[sighs wearily]
Clearly, my cousin Jim is bothered with this look.
So, I'm gonna continue to enhance this look.
I'm gonna embarrass the [bleep] out of him.
[Danny] Got a bit of a new look for you here, I like it.
-So let me act as your stylist. -Wow.
-Okay. I'm in. -[Danny] Yeah.
I think we'll probably be able to find out a mall somewhere, so...
I'm taking him shopping.
With Jim's money.
[man coughing]
I want quality, I want cleanliness, and I wanna see my seeds.
Have they grown?
-A little. -A little.
[enchanting music playing]
Wow.
[Luhowy] Maybe a lot.
Yeah.
This is beautiful.
Are these the girls, are these the...
-These are all your girls. -Oh my God, the girls!
Nick runs a really clean operation, he is a great grower.
I sent my genetics to him.
[laughs] He did a great job.
Wow, what a great room.
I wanna put a cot in here and live with the girls for a while.
-I'm really happy, man. -[Luhowy] Me too.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
-Aww. -Come on, man, you know?
I want this medicine to work.
I gotta tell you, I'm very impressed.
I mean, look at this facility. Look at it.
[sniffing] They're gorgeous. Not a brown tip on a leaf.
Let's get a picture.
[all exclaiming]
The Blues Brothers.
-Thank you very much. -Thank you.
-Thanks for the rocking, man, it looks great. -Thank you.
-It's exciting to have you here. -Yes.
-Well, thank you. -Thank you.
[Jim] I should be happy.
These plants here are gorgeous.
But, you know, I walk in all these stores and there's...
[sighs] There are hundreds of brands.
How're we gonna stick out?
What makes the Blues Brothers different?
I don't want the Blues Brothers ever to be forgotten.
There's gotta be an answer.
[Danny in an Australian accent] Good day, sir, may I help you?
I'm Dick, one of the top salesman
here in San Clemente Dodge Chrysler.
Now that I've resigned as President...
-[laughs] Yes. -...I've got a brand new career right here,
and they invited me to come and sell these new Dodge Diplomats, and I'll...
-I'll give you, uh, the test ride of your life. -[laughing]
-I will. -[continues laughing]
I definitely will.
I want to see if these Dodge cars
-have those-- -Oh, so, tell me, Mr. President,
-how much for this? -Oh, we'll make a deal.
-We'll have this in your driveway by tonight. -[laughs]
-[in normal voice] How you doing, man? -Oh, I'm-I'm doing all right.
I'm doing all right, I'm just, uh...
Here's the thing, Danny.
United States has so much cannabis right now.
We wanna be very specialized,
and that's what's gonna stick out on the shelf.
So that's the word you gotta focus on.
Genetics.
How are we gonna separate ourselves from the rest of the world?
The competition in cannabis is all about genetics,
and we have great genetics.
It's like signing Michael Jordan to your basketball team.
It's better for the business, it's better for the customer.
So, I'd like to add more genetics.
Are you and Chris willing to...
Take another hike...
-[scoffs] -...to the mountain?
You mean to Colombia?
No.
To the Big Sur Coast in California?
Danny's got the mind.
His vision quests.
But he sent me to Colombia a couple years ago,
and he was right.
-This is... [speaking Spanish] -[Jim whoops]
[Jim] Yeah, baby.
You have to find...
the Big Sur Holy Weed.
[laughs] Oh, Danny.
The Big Sur Holy Weed is a legendary strain.
Big Sur Holy Weed, where did he hear about that?
[laughs]
It's a hybrid
of Afghani Tiger seed, like Captain Jack's,
and Tanzanian, it's called chamba.
The seeds we found in Colombia thanks to Danny,
changed everything in Oregon.
We find these seeds in Big Sur like he wants me to,
it could change our whole expansion.
Having that genetic,
could make us the most special brand
you know, of America.
Big Sur Holy Weed.
Good luck.
Big Sur Holy Weed.
I like the name.
I was looking at some trucks, maybe,
for the farm, and...
Danny came out.
We are ideating about
-you know, what to do-- -Wait a minute.
What is "ideating"?
Ideating.
It's, you know, we're...
You know, pondering, thinking, ideating.
I never heard that term before, "ideate"?
-[Jim] It's-- -Sounds like "idioting", like idiot.
It's more like idiot rather than anything else.
You're the idiot, for Christ's sake.
-I was ideating with Danny. -Okay, go ahead.
So Danny thinks that we should go get a special strain
that's down in Big Sur.
Where is Big Sur?
Under coast in California.
But between San Francisco and Santa Barbara, you know?
We can go, but let's finish some of this other stuff.
We got a huge schedule ahead of the time,
just tell him we're gonna go and we'll go later.
No, you know Danny.
He wants it, and we gotta do it, man.
He's my partner, we gotta do it.
-So you're gonna go to Big Sur? -[Jim] No.
We're gonna go to Big Sur and hunt down the Big Sur Holy Weed.
-[phone vibrates] -Larry.
Hey, Larry!
[Larry over phone] Jim?
[Jim] Hey, man, how do you doing?
[Larry over phone] Listen, uh, sorry to bother you but uh,
we-we have a problem here.
[Jim] What's the problem?
[Larry over phone] Currently, there's a bunch of chickens missing.
[Jim] Really?
[Chris] God, why are you continuing this conversation, it's,
-it's ridiculous. -It is not ridiculous.
Okay, well let's cancel the Big Sur trip,
and we can go back and work on the chicken story.
Great, let's figure out what happened with the chickens.
Larry, we're-- We're going to the Big Sur, uh, to look for some seeds.
Larry, can you do the investigation for me?
Investigation?
-What a joke. -Good luck.
[Larry over phone] We'll ideate here
and we'll go to the bottom of it, I promise.
Okay.
Where did you find the word "ideating"?
[Larry over phone] People use it all the time.
[Chris] He texted to you.
He just mentioned it five minutes ago
when I was asking him what it means.
How the hell did you come up with it now?
[Larry over phone] We went to college.
-[snickers] -[Chris] Oh.
Very funny Larry.
[Larry over phone] Thank you, thank you, okay, I'll get on it.
[Jim] Ten chickens.
Missing chickens?
What the [bleep]?
We're gonna find out what happened to those chickens.
[Larry] I n the cannabis-growing community,
chicken-based offences are considered especially heinous.
In Medford, Oregon,
the detectives who investigate these vicious fowl-onies
are members of an elite squad
known as the special chickens unit.
[chicken clucking]
[Larry] These are their stories.
Everyone's a suspect in my opinion.
I've my eye on a few people.
Chris is number one on the list.
It's obvious, maybe it's too obvious.
Jim could do it,
because I've seen some of his movies where he's killed people.
If anyone
had the time and the motive
it would have to be Taro.
Taro looks hungry.
I don't go on evidence,
I go on gut feeling.
[chicken clucking]
-[Larry] Hey, Jennifer. -Hey.
I'm sorry.
Sorry for your loss.
[softly] Yeah.
-[in normal voice] Thank you. -Um...
Jim sent me over, do you think you can show me the crime scene?
-No, that's fine. -[Larry] Okay.
Wow.
This seems like a secure structure.
Pardon my pun, but...
Do you suspect fowl play?
I don't wanna start gossip.
No, go ahead, start gossip.
The only person that doesn't like the chickens is Chris.
He's the only one.
I actually heard him the other day, say,
"I'm gonna kill those effing chickens."
[Chris] Look at this, chicken [bleep] everywhere.
We can buy eggs.
I'm gonna kill those chickens, that's what I'm gonna do.
I've had it, I'm sick of them.
-I'm just gonna take some evidence... -Yeah.
-...here, okay? -Yeah, go ahead, yeah.
[Larry] Hang tight, I'm going.
No!
Oh God.
Good lord!
Oh!
That's gruesome in there.
-Yeah. -[Larry] You're not gonna wanna go in there.
They disappeared though, Larry.
There is no physical evidence.
No, I'm talking about the chicken [bleep].
There's a lot of [bleep] in there.
A lot.
[Jim singing] ♪ I'm going on a treasure hunt ♪
♪ A very scary treasure hunt ♪
♪ I'm going on a treasure hunt to Big Sur ♪
♪ I'm going on a treasure hunt ♪
♪ A very scary treasure hunt ♪
♪ I'm going on a treasure hunt to Big Sur ♪
Yeah, you're coming with, buddy.
[Jim] Coming up...
We're gonna get seeds today!
We're right where we're supposed to be.
[Chris] Jim, this is insane.
[Jim yelling] I know you're in here!
-Come on, Jim. -All right.
[yells]
[Chris] Ah [bleep].
[Larry] I'm gonna find out who's been stealing these chickens.
[Larry screaming]
[Jim] Danny's put this pressure on me
to get the Big Sur holy weed.
If anybody knows where it's at,
it's gonna be Sjoerd.
Sjoerd is one of the most brilliant geneticists.
He's travelled the world to collect seeds.
Sjoerd is like a personal trainer for your cannabis.
Hey!
-[Sjoerd] Hey, how's it going? -[Jim] How are you doing, man?
-Nice to see you. -[Sjoerd] Hey, man, good to see you.
[Jim] Sjoerd,
do you like this outfit?
[Sjoerd] That's intense.
[Jim] The eyebrows,
the dark hair,
now this?
[Chris] He called me, like, a grandpa,
pissed me off.
Now I'm gonna embarrass the hell out of him.
I'm gonna dress up everywhere we go.
[Jim] Sjoerd,
the seed that you've,
blended this with is an Afghani seed,
just like Captain Jack's...
-Yup. -[Jim] ...the same region, so--
Pure, pure Afghani, yeah.
They-They may be related.
Unique genetics is important for this expansion.
Big Sur Holy Weed
would be a home run.
Nobody has it.
It has allure,
and a history, and brings the result, the feeling back
to why started with the cannabis.
It's gonna make our expansion.
That's why we want
every genetic that you have to be...
-as close to that landrace as possible... -Mmm-hmm.
...to give the original feeling.
Yeah.
Opposed to the newer strains that are coming out
that are just blow your brains out
-and knock you on the couch. -Yeah.
No, I mean that's the nice thing,
that we have the opportunity to do
is kind of rebuild 30 years of work
where everybody was chasing high THC,
and really missing out on some of those more subtle notes that...
make cannabis, uh, such an incredible plant.
Now we can kind of rebuild some of those...
same lines, but have a different focus.
We go back and you can find these landrace strains,
which means, "original".
"Never been touched."
Those were the strains...
that brought about the Summer of Love.
It was a different feeling.
It was more of spiritual.
It was more of a community. It was fun.
I think Belushi Farm needs a strain,
a genetic...
that can give you that kind of joy.
I love the idea of capturing that feeling
from that community here in Big Sur
-that was really the birth of the cannabis world. -[Sjoerd] Yeah.
This area is the first place
where they took those equatorial varieties
and crossed them with the pure Afghanis.
-You've travelled the world before for seeds, right? -Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
-You personally? -[Sjoerd] Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
-Gone to Africa, gone to South America. -Yeah.
Yeah, all over.
Right, and do you have the Big Sur Holy Weed?
No. I do not.
Boy, I was really impressed with you
up until you said that.
I know.
And why not?
It's hard to find and it's a complicated story,
but, uh, there are people who have ideas.
Really?
-[Jim] Uh, are you looking for a bribe here? -[Sjoerd laughs]
'Cause that sounded like, I don't know,
-a police officer asking for a bribe. -[Sjoerd continues laughing]
Yeah, I wouldn't mind that.
[Jim laughing]
Sjoerd said he didn't have any info for me.
I slipped him a $20
and he got me to Ryan Radio.
And he is a geneticist.
If Ryan Radio doesn't know where the Big Sur Holy Weed is,
I'm lost.
I can't tell Danny that I'm lost.
[chickens clucking]
[Larry] Well, well, well.
When you're conducting an investigation like I am,
you-- you have to keep an open mind.
And then we'll just let the facts lead to the truth.
It's what I do.
I've seen a lot of Law & Order 's.
I can solve crime.
Looks like we're doing some trimming, huh?
What kinda flower is that?
[Matt] Mmm, this is LA Kush Cake.
[Larry] That looks beautiful.
-[Larry groans] -Hey, Larry.
Hey, Amanda.
-[door slams] -[Larry wheezes]
[Larry] Well, well, well.
There he is.
You and me go back a long way. Jose.
-Where were you September 30th? -Uh...
Little karaoke night.
Anyone corroborate that?
No comprende.
Uh-huh. Of course no comprende.
Probably at home with the kids and wife.
-Oh, you have kids and wife? -[Matt] Yeah.
They gotta eat, don't they?
They sure do.
[Larry] It's not only why you're working,
maybe why you...
kill chickens?
If I need to.
Is that so?
[Larry] What do you think about chickens?
-Ever eat 'em? -Yeah.
Just one more question.
Sorry, it's-- it's lunch.
How's that make you feel?
Uh, you just pulled that outta your pocket, Larry.
It's fresh.
-[Amanda] Oh. -Real fresh.
[Larry] Do you want the rest of this chicken?
Uh-- I'm good. Thank-- Thank you, though.
What kind of crazy maniac
will take out 13 or 14 chickens
just because they are annoying?
Have you talked to Chris?
Chris.
-Thank you for your time. -Absolutely.
Thank you, my man.
Thank you for your time, Jose.
We're gonna figure out who did this,
but it was definitely Chris.
[Jim] Hey! Ryan!
Ryan Radio has a farm
where he breeds cannabis.
He has a library of over 500 different seeds.
So if anybody knows the history of strains, genetics,
it's Ryan.
I mean business out here. It's genetics.
People that wanna grow,
uh, something new and exciting
and something that's gonna really make their menu stand out,
they come to us.
[Jim] Look at these girls.
You have a library of genetics.
Do you have that, uh, Big Sur Holy Weed?
We don't have Big Sur Holy Weed.
You don't have it anywhere?
No. Not on farm.
-Really? -Yeah.
One of the unique things about the Big Sur Holy Weed,
is how difficult it is to get.
The people that are growing them,
uh, that've cultivated them for decades...
they're tough people to talk to, to get to.
It's a tough area to access.
Uh, accessibility down there is minimal.
And I think that's what makes some of these genetics
very unique.
Somebody's gotta be a hoarder like you and have some seeds.
The man told you he has no access.
All right, let's go.
All right, all right.
There might be one guy.
Really? Where is he? Who is he? What is it?
You're gonna have to go find him.
What's his name?
I guess I could tell you.
Mojave.
Never heard of him.
Is he close? Nearby?
All right, if you guys really wanna find Mojave,
-take Highway 1 South. -[Jim] All right?
Two bridges.
Turn left to the construction zone.
Construction zone? There's a million construction zones.
Mmm, there's only two bridges with two construction zones.
Turn left at last one. Dirt road.
Go left, you go right, you go in the ocean.
Pretty hard to eff that one up.
Okay, then what?
Once you go up to the top of the path,
there's a sign for the enchanted forest.
And if you guys see Mojave up there,
just let him know what you're up to
and then maybe he can help you out
with your journey on finding the Big Sur Holy Weed.
He just hangs there?
Like, he likes to meditate there or something.
I don't know how we're gonna find him.
You gonna remember those directions? Because--
Yes, two bridges,
turn left to the construction site,
somewhere in that area will be Mojave.
-[Ryan] Good memory. -He's a cool dude.
[Jim] You think he'll like me?
We'll see.
Yeah, that's the problem.
Everyone knows that Jim loves a good story.
So we're gonna give him exactly that.
To be a part of the Big Sur community,
there's gonna be a little bit of initiation.
So we're gonna [bleep] with him a little bit.
This whole journey that we're going on
to look for these seeds in this enchanted forest,
I mean, it's bizarre.
Ryan Radio sending us in this wild goose chase,
it makes no sense to me whatsoever.
Mojave's actually really close by.
It's only a five-minute drive,
but I thought I'd send Jim the long way around.
The dude's a comedian.
He should be able to take a joke, right?
Hey, what's up, Mojave?
Yeah, I'm at Belushi.
And they bought it all, too.
All the crap about the enchanted forest and everything.
[Jim] I can't justify these wild outfits that he's wearing.
They-- I-- I can't take it in.
I got an idea that'll pop the pimple.
You watch.
What a jagoff.
-[Jim] Good morning. -[Chris] Good morning.
Did you sleep good?
Slept great. What about you?
Good.
[Jim] Although it looked pretty cool,
Chris's reaction? Nothing.
I'm driving.
Oh, he's being Mr. Cool.
Purposely didn't mention a word
about what I was wearing.
I knew exactly what he was doing.
I think he's been dying
to get me to stop wearing these outfits.
[Jim] We're gonna get the seeds today.
[Chris] You remember how to get there?
[Jim] This is Big Sur. Wow.
[Jim breathing heavily]
Why are you breathing so hard?
I'm gonna pee.
We're like, eight miles away from a gas station.
I don't think I can make eight miles.
[Chris] There's a bottle in the back.
Grab the bottle.
That's a Coke bottle. I need a Big Gulp bottle.
-[Chris] Oh, my God. -I need the big opening.
Just pull over, pull over.
Goddammit.
Open the-- open the lock. [grunts]
Tire looks low.
[zipper unzips]
[horn honking]
-[zipper zips] -[Chris laughs]
What are you doing?
How did that feel? A little public humiliation.
Why did you do that?
'Cause I was humiliated with that interview.
That radio interview?
Yes, the radio interview.
It hurt.
I-- I-- I didn't know what to do.
You could've flipped the topic.
You do it all the time during interviews.
-You could've changed it like that -[snaps fingers]
instead of laughing.
That's what this is all about? This dressing...
young like a hipster?
Cost me a fortune.
I got caught up.
I'm sorry, Chris, I wouldn't wanna hurt you, man.
All right. Apology accepted.
-Really? -Yeah.
I'm glad I apologized.
I love Chris.
-[Jim grunts] -No, nevermind.
You got pee all over you.
[Jim] Oh, my God, I got it on my boots.
I can tell when he's just saying something
and I can tell when he really means it.
So today when he apologized, he was sincere.
And I wanted to get out of this damn costume.
♪ Here comes the ladies' man ♪
♪ He got the moves and style ♪
♪ He make the ladies smile ♪
♪ Oh, oh, oh ♪
♪ He is ladies' man ♪
[Jim] This is a hell of a path.
We're right where we're supposed to be.
[Chris] This is spooky, Jim.
-We're in the middle of nowhere. -[Jim] I don't want to know.
[Jim] Just park, just park. Come on.
This is exactly what Ryan said.
This way.
-Come here. -[Jim] What?
[Chris] You got your earring in still.
Oh, really?
[groans]
-There you go. -[Jim] Thanks.
You're welcome.
[Jim] I wanna bring back the original strains.
'Cause those strains make you feel good, light, insightful.
And this Big Sur Holy Weed
is one of those strains.
Okay. Here we go.
Mojave, I know you're in here!
[Chris] Jim, this is insane.
[Jim] Insane? Look at how beautiful it is.
Look at that tree!
I bet you he's in that tree.
Looks like right out of Game of Thrones.
This is absolutely a wild goose chase.
Have no idea if we're gonna find the guy.
Oh, my God, what's that?
Come on.
-Oh, my God, a bear! -Come on.
[Jim] Oh, my God, look.
Wait a minute.
I got it, I got it.
[Chris] Ah, [bleep].
[Jim] You're all right, you got hiking shoes.
-[Chris] Come on, Jim. -[Jim] All right.
[Jim shouts] Ow!
[Chris] Ow, [bleep].
See I [bleep] told you.
-[Jim] All right, all right, it's just water. -[Chris] Goddamn it.
[Chris] Gonna freeze now.
[Jim grunts] Oh, you'll be all right.
Come on.
This way.
That's the wet hole.
It's just water. Okay.
-I'm stuck here. -[Jim] You're--
[Jim] You're-- No, you're not.
Put one foot there.
-[Chris] Shut the... [grunts] -[Jim] Here, gimme your hand.
-[Jim] Come on. -[Chris grunts]
[Chris] Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
Not a boy scout, huh?
-Mojave, I will find you! -[bangs drum]
I'm gonna find you, Mojave.
[chickens clucking]
[Larry exhales sharply and whispers] Hey, there.
It's in the night.
I'm gonna camp out in the chicken coop
and I'm gonna find out who's been stealing these chickens.
I'm gonna be hiding out here as long as it takes.
The killers strike when they want to.
Not when I want 'em to.
[dog barking distantly]
[animal growling]
[Larry gasps] What?
-[chicken squawks] -[Larry softly] What?
What was that? What's that noise?
-[chicken squawks] -[animal growls]
-[objects smashing and clattering] -[Larry screaming]
[upbeat music playing]
-[screams] -[intense music playing]
[bubbling]
[Gia] Larry!
-What are you doing? -Who is that?
It's Gia. It smells terrible.
Tell me about it.
Why are you in a tub of tomato sauce?
Um... Chicken massacre
has been solved.
Uh-huh, who is it?
It was a skunk.
It was a skunk?
What did you do with the skunk?
Let's just say we won't be seeing that skunk
around here anymore.
[Gia] At least the mystery is solved.
I don't agree with his method,
but... he got to the result.
Oh, I'm gonna take a picture of this
-for Chris. -Oh, no, no, no.
-[Gia] Yes. -Not Chris.
-[Gia] Yes. -Not Chris, Gia.
-Please! -[Gia] Yes.
Please, Gia. Not...
Gia, get out of here, please.
This is gonna be good.
Gia, please can I just have
a little bit of alone time
Ugh!
[Larry] Gia, can you get me a towel, please.
[Gia] No.
[inhales]
[bubbling]
[upbeat music playing]
[Jim] Monterey Bay, Big Sur.
That in the '60s is where cannabis
began to be cultivated for real.
Of course it started here.
This is the most beautiful place in the country.
[slow instrumental music playing]
[Chris breathing heavily]
-[Chris groans] -[Jim] Should be up here somewhere.
Magic chasing is worth the...
I chase magic all over the world.
I'm a magic chaser.
And there is magic in everything
if you look hard enough.
There's magic in music.
There's magic in friendship.
There's magic in the redwood forest.
[comical instrumental music playing]
[Chris breathing heavily] Ooh.
You all right?
Yeah, I got something in my shoe.
Well, take it out.
Nah, it's just a little irritating... like you.
[scoffing] Just take it out.
These are a pain in the ass to tie.
So what? Untie it, then tie it back up.
Take it out.
[groaning and grunting]
"Enchanted forest" here. We're almost here.
[eerie music playing]
Can't you wait for me now?
[Chris] Jim... so gullible.
He loves the story,
loves the juice,
loves the drama.
Mark my words.
This is gonna be a total waste of time.
[guitar playing in distance]
Do you hear anything?
[Chris] I don't...
What do you hear?
[Jim] I know it sounds stupid, but I hear music.
It's the enchanted forest.
I... I thought I heard music.
And I just followed that music.
[guitar music playing]
Is that him?
[Jim] And there he was.
Like a Buddha himself.
Sitting on a rock,
playing slide guitar.
[guitar music continues]
-[playing harmonica] -[Chris] Jim...
[playing guitar and harmonica]
And I always carry a D harp with me.
I just march right up
and we jammed, man.
[continues playing music]
I sit up there on this mountain
all day, playing guitar,
just waiting for someone to come
and ask me to give them
my rare seeds? No.
But when I heard it was Jim Belushi and he was in town,
-I actually jumped at the... - [Jim laughing]
...opportunity to be a part of this.
Whoa! Man!
-Jim Belushi. -Hey, Mojave.
-Yeah, I see ya. -Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Uh, I... I have... come looking for you.
And to find
this Big Sur Holy Weed.
[mystical music playing]
[Jim] And Ryan says you are the keeper
of the Holy Weed.
You know, I grow cannabis on my farm,
and we pride ourselves in our genetics
but we really believe in
this Big Sur Holy Weed.
It's got a lot of mystical properties about it.
We'd like to have that on our farm
because this is the early, early... landrace strain.
-Am I right? -Yeah, it is.
I mean, Big sur is a magical place.
It was maybe the first spot that really was like
a new world cannabis scene.
They created a lot of amazing cannabis
over the years.
And the Holy Weed was...
[mystical music playing]
the flower that that community produced.
And, um, I still have the Big Sur Holy Weed seeds,
the original, yeah.
-I would love to... to have that on my farm. -[upbeat music playing]
I would love to be able to spread that same
sensibility that was experienced
during the birth... of this world,
that started here, in Big Sur.
Can I get the seeds?
Well, it's kinda complicated.
[upbeat music fades away]
[intense music playing]
[Jim] Complicated! Why do things have to be complicated?
I know what complicated means.
[fuming] Complicated.
[breathing heavily]
That means, "no."
[Jim] This is the sexy part of cannabis.
[funky music playing]
You kinda gotta get a little Barry White.
You gotta pull the lights down. [exhales]
Beautiful.
[Jim] How two plants come together?
[deep echoing voice] Ooh, baby!
He takes the pollen from the male plant,
and he flicks it...
[deep echoing voice] Ooh, baby!
...under the female plant,
and it becomes this beautiful hybrid,
bringing two strong lovers together...
[deep echoing voice] Ooh, baby!
...and making a baby.
I missed.
Sometimes, it gets a little messy.
So what do we... do now?
We just watch? Or...
Yeah, we walk away and give 'em some privacy,
and let them hang out for the night.
Nothing going on here.
[Jim] And as a farmer,
it's a lot easier
than inseminating a cow.
[intense music playing]
Can I get the seeds?
Well, it's kinda complicated.
The seeds, because they're so precious,
they've been in cold storage for decades.
They can only be... rescued through a laboratory.
And it's probably gonna take months,
if not a year, to get that done.
[shouting] Mojave doesn't have it!
Mojave doesn't have the Big Sur Holy Weed!
[groans softly] Oh.
This sucks.
Worse...
Chris is gonna say, [mockingly] "I told you so."
[Mojave] But...
I do have the plant.
[laughs heartily]
You got the plant?
I've got the plant.
Ryan and I really loved the idea of working with Jim.
He's got a great company. The mission behind it
is really positive.
But that doesn't mean we can't mess with him.
There's a few different varieties of cannabis
that are called Big Sur Holy Weed.
-[mystical music playing] -But the main original variety
was the Mexican variety.
And I took that with me
as a young man and moved to Amsterdam,
and continued to breed over there
and developed a variety called "S.A.G.E."
Which was a combination of
-Big Sur Holy Weed... -[mystical music playing]
and other landrace varieties,
that really embodied, what i thought,
great cannabis should be.
All right.
[plays harmonica]
[strumming guitar]
You got the plant!
I got the plant, Jim.
It was disappointing when he said he didn't have it,
but I was only disappointed for a minute!
[Jim singing] ♪ Go on and give me some of that ♪
♪ Big Sur Holy Weed ♪
I already made up my mind that I was gonna give Jim
the Big Sur Holy Weed, but the jam session
really sealed the deal.
There's something about playing music with somebody
that just makes you feel connected.
-[music ends] -[both chuckle]
[upbeat music playing]
I got something for you.
Landrace cannabis has basically been decimated
by prohibition over the years.
Re-establishing some of those old genetics
has a real value to
the modern cannabis world.
These genetics are a big deal,
and we're gonna expand in every state,
and we're gonna take these genetics with us.
It's gonna be good. It's gonna be good for people,
good for our mission, good for the farm.
And it's all Danny's idea.
[shouting] Danny, you're so smart!
Although, you never wanna ask him about ghosts,
because he'll go on for four hours.
[Jim exclaiming] Ooh!
[straining] There you go, Jim.
-[Mojave exhales] -[Jim] Wow!
Big Sur Holy Weed.
-[mystical music playing] -Indeed.
[shouting] I got it!
I got it! I got it!
I got the Big Sur Holy Weed!
Look at that.
So this is a real sativa with the thin leaves.
So this is the Big Sur Holy Weed?
Yeah, this is my kind of Big Sur Holy Weed.
-It has the chamba in it... -All right.
...and it has the Mexican influence as well,
as well as Afghani.
But the selections that I made over the years
have always been towards the original Big Sur Holy Weed
aroma and effects from way back.
-[upbeat music playing] -We in the cannabis community,
we're really protective of these heritage varieties,
you know, they're a part of our life they're a part of our story.
Yeah, we believe that Jim is, you know,
has enough conviction and he's stubborn enough
to actually, to...
do the right thing with this plant.
Wow! This is beautiful medicine,
it's a beautiful plant
and it's a beautiful gift.
Well, I'm glad that you're gonna
take it and... put it to good use.
I wanted to talk to you about that.
This is so precious,
and it's so precious to you,
and your legacy,
and your family
and... this area.
I don't wanna take it up to my farm.
I'd like to take this
to Ryan and Sjoerd's place.
-Hmm. -Its right here in Big Sur,
where it belongs.
And I'd like them to cultivate it.
Would that be all right with you?
I think that's a fantastic plan.
[Ryan] The Big Sur community knows
what Jim's doing in Oregon.
I'd absolutely like to be
in business with Jim.
We believe in everything he stands for.
I think it's important to leave it here
in this community.
Next to the sea,
and these rocks,
in this air.
On this Big Sur holy journey,
probably some of the greatest men and women
that I've met in my life.
Danny put me on this mission.
Some mission from God
and I am doing it.
Mission accomplished!
Heading back to Oregon,
and we'll see where the journey takes us.
[shouting] Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Mojave, Ryan, ha-ha-ha! The jokesters!
I'm the professional jokester, okay.
Pulled one over on me... Initiation!
Wait till they come to Oregon.
[mockingly] Ha-ha-ha!
Oh, Ryan, Mojave, you're so funny.
It was kind of funny.
They're pretty clever.
[upbeat instrumental rock music playing]
[car horn honking]
[clucking]
Mmm, ha-ha-ha.
-[Larry] Oops. -[Chris] Oops.
-[Larry] Ha-ha-ha! -[folk music playing]
-[gasping] -Oh, no, that's enough.
Oh, well! Welcome back, guys.
-Oh, thanks for cooking, Larry. -Yeah.
Bon appetit!
[spitting]
What the [bleep] is this, Larry?
-What? It's a special recipe. -[comical music playing]
[bleep] can't even [bleep] eat that. What is it?
Uh... I'm off of carbs right now, Larry.
I'm trimming a little fat.
What the [bleep] is in there?
Just natural ingredients.
-[Chris] That's disgusting. -[Larry] Come on, guys!
I put a lot of myself into this.
[speaking gibberish]
[Larry] Guys?
Guys?
[scoffs]
[comical music peaks and ends]
[Jim] Next time on Growing Belushi...
I've been trading weed in Illinois for four years.
Shelbyville is the perfect opportunity.
[Chris] Can't believe that facility, Jim.
Turnkey.
[scraping]
It's broke.
-[Gia] Oh, my God! -[groans]
[Gia] I don't know what Chris was thinking
when he walked in here and said this was turnkey.
This failed the Illinois state test?
Yes. We have to burn it.
Illinois is a very strict state.
You get one compliance test. That's it.
We don't change what's happening in those rooms,
we're gonna have a huge problem.
[man] Look at all the water all over the floor.
The irrigation's not hooked to anything.
Turnkey!
That's gotta go, that's gotta go,
this has gotta get changed.
Turnkey, my ass!
I'm here to talk to Jim about this
new fertigation system we're putting in.
I don't think I told Dave
that Larry's gonna help him
with this project.
Let's give him a shot.
I can't let Jim down.
Larry's a wonderful guy,
but what a pain in the ass.
[engine revving]
[Larry shouting] Why is there water, Dave?
You've gotta be kidding me.
