        He's just an honest,        
         struggling artist.

        to do it, all right?        

10
00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:17,600
        Hey, that art world

    It's dope. It's really dope.    

12
00:00:20,228 --> 00:00:21,521
   [Flowers] You keep complaining   
           about the nigga,          

13
00:00:21,563 --> 00:00:22,731
        let him defend himself.      

14
00:00:22,772 --> 00:00:24,357
     Bro, Drew is not that bad.     

15
00:00:24,399 --> 00:00:26,693
          He is that bad.           
   He's a dangerous drug dealer.    

16
00:00:26,735 --> 00:00:28,028
         And to be honest,          
         I'm worried about          

17
00:00:28,069 --> 00:00:29,362
         bigger shit, too.          

18
00:00:29,404 --> 00:00:31,364
       I'm giving Zayna A's,        
         I risked my job,           

19
00:00:31,406 --> 00:00:32,532
      I'm scared of this guy.       

20
00:00:32,574 --> 00:00:34,367
            Her uncle...            
           Zayna's right.           

21
00:00:34,409 --> 00:00:36,536
    I've met him a couple times,    
       he can be aggressive.        

22
00:00:36,578 --> 00:00:38,913
            -We family.             
               -No.                 

23
00:00:38,955 --> 00:00:40,582
           You broke up             
         my actual family.          

24
00:00:40,623 --> 00:00:41,916
    The only reason we "family"     

25
00:00:41,958 --> 00:00:43,418
       'cause you feel guilty       

26
00:00:43,460 --> 00:00:45,086
        for getting my pops         
     knocked for what you did.      

27
00:00:45,128 --> 00:00:47,172
       I just have to report        
 to the rubber room indefinitely. 

28
00:00:47,213 --> 00:00:49,174
   It's like a teacher detention.   

29
00:00:49,215 --> 00:00:51,051
       What the fuck were you       
       even doing over there?       

30
00:00:51,092 --> 00:00:53,261
   I'm facing trouble at school,    

31
00:00:53,303 --> 00:00:54,888
         the fucking day after       

32
00:00:54,929 --> 00:00:56,389
          an ACS case opens,         
          an agent gets shot.        

33
00:00:56,431 --> 00:00:58,349
            I'm at the game          
      and I look up in the stands    

34
00:00:58,391 --> 00:00:59,976
     and see you sitting with him    
      like you're best friends.      

35
00:01:00,018 --> 00:01:01,728
    [Kevin] Dan, you got to stop    
        with the pills, man.        

36
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:02,896
        It's... It's a lot.         

37
00:01:02,937 --> 00:01:04,564
              [Kareem]              
      I want to help you, son.      

38

            I love you,             
      and I'm-a get you clean.

      -Wait, where you going?       
       -Uh, I'm going home.         

40
00:01:10,361 --> 00:01:11,988
          If I stay here,           
         we won't be cool.          

41
00:01:12,030 --> 00:01:13,490
         It's just gonna be         
         more of the same.          

42
00:01:13,531 --> 00:01:15,492
            Trust me, man,           
        it's better if I leave.

44
00:01:18,787 --> 00:01:20,830

        [indistinct chatter]        

46
00:01:25,085 --> 00:01:26,628
         I feel like there's        
        no hope for humanity        

47
00:01:26,669 --> 00:01:28,963
        I just want my moment,

        Before it's all over       

49
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,717
      I try to get through this,    
            no profanity

          My art is popping,        
        I'm sick of knocking        

52
00:01:36,805 --> 00:01:38,807
          I'm kicking doors,        
          I'm independent           

53
00:01:38,848 --> 00:01:40,725
         'Cause they dependent      
          on getting yours          

54
00:01:40,767 --> 00:01:43,436
           But I'm resilient        
      and shout-out to Aiden 24

        That's where I get it,      
           okay, I get it           

56
00:01:45,271 --> 00:01:46,940

             Dan Joseph.             

59
00:01:50,026 --> 00:01:52,946
              I just want           
          to feel something         

60
00:01:52,987 --> 00:01:55,073
             In my soul            

61
00:01:55,990 --> 00:01:57,742
               [cop]                
    When did you last see Drew?     

62
00:01:57,784 --> 00:02:00,370
    I haven't seen him since the    
   Child Services agent was shot.   

63
00:02:00,411 --> 00:02:01,621
            All right?              
      This is the fourth time       

64
00:02:01,663 --> 00:02:02,914
        I've been asked this        
          in three months.          

65
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:04,290
         Are you objecting          
          to questioning?           

66
00:02:04,332 --> 00:02:06,626
         No, I-I was just--         
        I was just counting.        

67
00:02:06,668 --> 00:02:08,753
   [stammering] I was sure it...    
      it was more than that.        

68
00:02:08,795 --> 00:02:12,423
       Officer. I don't know        
   what you want with my stepson,   

69
00:02:12,465 --> 00:02:14,926
     but he's a sober man now,      
           thanks to me.            

70
00:02:14,968 --> 00:02:16,803
           I mean, yeah,            
      he cheated on his taxes,      

71

      -but hasn't everybody?        
     -Kareem, come on, settle.      

72
00:02:20,181 --> 00:02:23,143
     Well, what is this, then?      
      Is this reverse racism?       

73
00:02:23,184 --> 00:02:24,644
   I-I doubt it's reverse racism.   

74
00:02:24,686 --> 00:02:27,897
       If you have any leads        
       on Drew's whereabouts,

      to sell that cop a bike?

        Something's going on        
           with my Zelle            

247
00:08:21,292 --> 00:08:23,085
        and I got to collect        
         my cash in person.         

248
00:08:23,127 --> 00:08:26,088
   Plus, I don't want you to know   
    where I work or live, so...     

249
00:08:26,130 --> 00:08:27,924
     Well-well, welcome. Um...      

250
00:08:27,965 --> 00:08:30,176
 Yeah, so I was hoping you could, 
       uh, give me a referral       

251
00:08:30,218 --> 00:08:32,094
          so I could get            
     a prescription for Xanax.      

252
00:08:32,136 --> 00:08:34,597
         My-my doctor won't         
       prescribe me any more,       

253
00:08:34,639 --> 00:08:36,182
      so I've been spacing out      
           my last dose,            

254
00:08:36,224 --> 00:08:38,267
         but today's been           
       really, really crazy,        

255
00:08:38,309 --> 00:08:39,852
      so I-I'm out right now.       

256
00:08:39,894 --> 00:08:42,188
        I keep telling you          
        I'm a psychologist,         

257
00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:43,523
        not a psychiatrist.         

258
00:08:43,564 --> 00:08:44,815
       I cannot prescribe you       
            medication.             

259
00:08:44,857 --> 00:08:46,859
     No, no, I-I know. I know.      

260
00:08:46,901 --> 00:08:48,361
       That's why I'm asking        
          for a referral.           

261
00:08:48,402 --> 00:08:50,029
          [mocking noise]           
     You getting nasty with me?     

262
00:08:50,071 --> 00:08:51,822
        No, no, no. I mean,         
      I-I was just clarifying.      

263
00:08:51,864 --> 00:08:53,533
      -I was just clarifying.       
   -What, you think I'm some type   

264
00:08:53,574 --> 00:08:56,160
     of fucking PEZ Dispenser,      
        popping out pills?          

265
00:08:56,202 --> 00:08:58,746
    No, no, no. You're a doctor,    
    and-and the best one I know.    

266
00:08:58,788 --> 00:09:00,957
 Dan, I actually have expertise,   
            all right?              

267
00:09:00,998 --> 00:09:02,917
    So why don't you talk to me?    

268
00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:04,544
        'Cause I'm charging         
         your ass anyway.           

269
00:09:04,585 --> 00:09:06,003
    No, I'm-I'm talking to you.     

270
00:09:06,045 --> 00:09:07,713
           The-the pills            
      are the issue right now.      

271
00:09:09,966 --> 00:09:12,760
     Okay, well, I'm kind of...     

272
00:09:12,802 --> 00:09:14,470
     I'm-I'm stressed about...      

273
00:09:14,512 --> 00:09:17,223
 I have my teacher reinstatement   
     hearing coming up today,       

274
00:09:17,265 --> 00:09:19,016
     -if-if you remember that.      
             -Vaguely.              

275
00:09:19,058 --> 00:09:21,811
          Okay. So, um...           
 I'm talking about it most weeks. 

276
00:09:21,852 --> 00:09:25,273
   Um, anyway, so, I lost my only   
     student character witness,     

277
00:09:25,314 --> 00:09:27,692
     and I need testimony, but      
 I-I'm going through withdrawal,   

278
00:09:27,733 --> 00:09:29,610
    and-and it's fucking me up      
    from finding a replacement.     

279
00:09:29,652 --> 00:09:30,903
      So I don't even know...       

280
00:09:32,446 --> 00:09:34,490
    Maybe there's other students    
     whose lives I've touched?      

281
00:09:34,532 --> 00:09:35,950
        I, uh, I don't know.        

282
00:09:35,992 --> 00:09:37,535
   If I were you, I would refrain   

283
00:09:37,577 --> 00:09:39,537
      from putting the words        
      "touched" and "student"       

284
00:09:39,579 --> 00:09:41,455
       in the same sentence.        

285
00:09:41,497 --> 00:09:43,833
          -[clears throat]          
               -Fuck.               

286
00:09:43,874 --> 00:09:45,418
    Oh, my God, are you crying?     

287
00:09:45,459 --> 00:09:47,044
        No, I'm not crying,         
     I was just rubbing my eyes     

288
00:09:47,086 --> 00:09:48,421
         in-in frustration,         

289
00:09:48,462 --> 00:09:50,006
 -because like I said, I'm going   
             -Uh-huh.               

290
00:09:50,047 --> 00:09:51,591
        through withdrawal          
    and I'm just feeling stuck.     

291
00:09:51,632 --> 00:09:53,759
     Okay, okay, Dan, Dan, Dan,     
     please, please calm down.      

292
00:09:53,801 --> 00:09:55,428
            -Okay. Okay.            
            -All right?             

293
00:09:55,469 --> 00:09:57,430
    Last thing I need you to do     
       is write a manifesto.        

294
00:09:57,471 --> 00:09:59,890
    I'm not writing a manifesto,    
   I'm-I'm speaking with passion.   

295
00:09:59,932 --> 00:10:01,726
           Dan, don't say           
        another thing, okay?        

296
00:10:01,767 --> 00:10:04,270
   I will come to your damn trial   
 and I will speak on your behalf. 

297
00:10:04,312 --> 00:10:07,023
            -You happy?             
      -Yeah? Just to be nice?       

298
00:10:07,064 --> 00:10:09,859
         No, it'll be nice          
      to get paid, all right?       

299
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:12,695
 -Plus, my court fees are double. 
              -Right.

              -Okay.

00:10:27,335 --> 00:10:29,462
     Unless it's three niggas       
 lifting me up in an Uber, okay?   

307
00:10:29,503 --> 00:10:31,922
             -Mm-hmm.               
      -And I also need lunch.

00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:38,966
       till my beard connect.       

367
00:12:39,008 --> 00:12:41,218
             -Connect?              
      -We got to find someone       

368
00:12:41,260 --> 00:12:43,929
           -around here.            
          -I'm on it, bro.          

369
00:12:43,971 --> 00:12:46,891
           -How's Zayna?            
        -I don't know, bro.         

370
00:12:46,932 --> 00:12:48,893
     I was following her around     
       for, like, a bit, man,       

371
00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:51,896
 but that shit got kind of weird, 
 following a little girl around.   

372
00:12:51,937 --> 00:12:54,648
 Plus, man, I was getting tired,   
 man. You know I got flat feet.    

373
00:12:54,690 --> 00:12:56,692
     This nigga, man, I swear.      

374
00:12:58,569 --> 00:13:00,529
          -[line ringing]           
        -Yo, good luck, bro.        

375
00:13:00,571 --> 00:13:02,406
         I tried on, like,          
    three different phones, bro.    

376
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:04,074
        She not picking up.         

377
00:13:04,116 --> 00:13:07,077
     But she do be on the Ave       
    around this time every day,     

378
00:13:07,119 --> 00:13:08,788
       bargain-shopping, man,       
    you probably find her there.    

379
00:13:08,829 --> 00:13:10,790
           You tell her             
       "Get back in school"?        

380
00:13:10,831 --> 00:13:13,584
   I tried, bro. After you left,    

381
00:13:13,626 --> 00:13:15,294
         she wasn't fucking         
         with none of that.         

382
00:13:15,336 --> 00:13:17,296
     Yeah, I'm-a dead all that.     

383
00:13:17,338 --> 00:13:20,299
   Yo, you should hit that white    
   boy teacher up to talk to her.   

384
00:13:20,341 --> 00:13:22,551
            The junkie?             
       Man, fuck that nigga.        

385
00:13:22,593 --> 00:13:24,303
           He the reason            
        we in this shit now.        

386
00:13:24,345 --> 00:13:25,805
        Yeah, but he could          
       probably finesse her.        

387
00:13:25,846 --> 00:13:27,640
       Nah, I'll talk to her.       

388
00:13:27,681 --> 00:13:30,142
       You just hold it down        
    till you hear from me, okay?    

389
00:13:30,184 --> 00:13:31,644
               Copy.                

390
00:13:32,645 --> 00:13:35,147
             Damn, man.             

391
00:13:35,189 --> 00:13:37,191
    I'm-a go watch   Book of Eli.     

392
00:13:37,233 --> 00:13:38,943
        This can't be $250.         

393
00:13:38,984 --> 00:13:41,028
       I know they cost less        
      at the Garment District.      

394
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:42,822
             It's $250.             

395
00:13:42,863 --> 00:13:44,657
 But these aren't even Swarovski. 

396
00:13:44,698 --> 00:13:48,202
   Yo, why you trying to upcharge   
    these bootleg-ass crystals?     

397
00:13:48,244 --> 00:13:52,832
       Listen, I'm-a give you       
   $100 flat, and I can pay cash.   

398
00:13:52,873 --> 00:13:54,667
               -Hmm?                
           -Ma'am? Ma'am.           

399
00:13:54,708 --> 00:13:56,710
             It's $250.             

400
00:13:56,752 --> 00:13:58,254
     Go to the Garment District     

401
00:13:58,295 --> 00:13:59,880
        if you think you can        
          get it cheaper.           

402
00:14:02,383 --> 00:14:05,135
       That's why nobody come       
       to this bum-ass store.       

403
00:14:06,971 --> 00:14:08,055
         -[whispers] Zayna.         
         -[screams] Nigga!          

404
00:14:08,097 --> 00:14:09,932
         -Back the fuck up!         
             -It's me.              

405
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:11,308
               -Drew?               
               -Damn.               

406
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:13,018
      Yo, why you even dressed      
             like that?             

407
00:14:13,060 --> 00:14:15,020
     You know I ain't supposed      
          to be out here.           

408
00:14:15,062 --> 00:14:16,814
    Yeah, but why you look like     
   you about to kill werewolves?    

409
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,691
       I'm killing this drip,       
         that's what it is.         

410
00:14:18,732 --> 00:14:20,359
         I'm a drip slayer.         

411
00:14:20,401 --> 00:14:22,528
 Anyway, what are you doing here? 
       Why you not in school?       

412
00:14:22,570 --> 00:14:24,488
   You haven't seen me in months,   

413
00:14:24,530 --> 00:14:27,533
   and the first thing you ask me   
     is why I'm not in school?      

414
00:14:27,575 --> 00:14:29,201
 You act like it's a good school. 

415
00:14:29,243 --> 00:14:30,536
    They got walls, don't they?     

416
00:14:30,578 --> 00:14:32,204
           Zay, you knew            
       I couldn't come back--       

417
00:14:32,246 --> 00:14:33,664
   Yeah, because of what you did.   

418
00:14:33,706 --> 00:14:35,708
       Sh... Damn. Calm down.       

419
00:14:35,749 --> 00:14:37,668
          I got you what            
     you always wanted, right?      

420
00:14:37,710 --> 00:14:39,211
          -Your own space.          
               -Hmm.                

421
00:14:39,253 --> 00:14:40,880
     -Just go to school for me.     
            -Oh, my God.            

422
00:14:40,921 --> 00:14:42,506
     Why you stressing me for?      

423
00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:44,508
    -I'm turning in my homework.    
         -Yo, don't feed me         

424
00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:45,885
        that loophole shit.         

425
00:14:45,926 --> 00:14:47,720
      It ain't about making it      
         to the next grade.         

426
00:14:47,761 --> 00:14:49,722
        You need to actually        
           be in school.            

427
00:14:49,763 --> 00:14:52,516
      That's important to me,       
 that's important to your pops--   

428
00:14:52,558 --> 00:14:54,351
        Yo, don't talk to me        
           about my dad.            

429
00:14:54,393 --> 00:14:55,895
     First of all, we not even      
      supposed to be talking.       

430
00:14:55,936 --> 00:14:57,354
         You is a fugitive.         

431
00:14:57,396 --> 00:14:59,565
         And you being here         
       is putting me at risk.       

432
00:14:59,607 --> 00:15:01,108
    No, you putting you at risk.    

433
00:15:01,150 --> 00:15:02,776
          The money ain't           
        what it used to be.         

434
00:15:02,818 --> 00:15:05,362
     You need to stay in line.      
 We cannot afford another fuckup. 

435
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:07,406
      All this shit cost more       
      than I thought it would.      

436
00:15:07,448 --> 00:15:09,074
   So you saying that you broke?    

437
00:15:09,116 --> 00:15:11,410
      No, what I'm saying is,       
       I need you to behave         

438
00:15:11,452 --> 00:15:13,412
    until I get back on my feet.    

439
00:15:13,454 --> 00:15:18,250
 And then I can buy you mad yarn, 
 spools on spools, all that shit. 

440
00:15:18,292 --> 00:15:20,878
        -Just go to school.         
             -Typical.              

441
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,088
         See, this is why           
       I can't go to school.        

442
00:15:23,130 --> 00:15:25,382
       'Cause I need to make        
           my own money.            

443
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:27,051
   I need to take care of myself.   

444
00:15:27,092 --> 00:15:30,429
       Yeah, it's mad simple.       
             Bye, Drew.             

445
00:15:33,641 --> 00:15:34,934
       -[door bells jingle]         
       -Kanye got you niggas

449
00:15:38,896 --> 00:15:41,899
        -[Kareem] Dan. Dan.         
               -Hmm?                

450
00:15:41,941 --> 00:15:43,108
         Help the customer.         

451
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:46,862
      Okay, yeah. Can I leave       
        after that, Kareem?         

452
00:15:46,904 --> 00:15:48,697
   I just have the hearing later    
          and I'm fucked,           

453
00:15:48,739 --> 00:15:50,616
   and I'm just not feeling well.   

454
00:15:50,658 --> 00:15:53,661
        Wait, you know what?        
          You do look bad.          

455
00:15:53,702 --> 00:15:55,412
 In a new, different kind of way. 

456
00:15:55,454 --> 00:15:56,872
   You can leave, but only after    

457
00:15:56,914 --> 00:15:58,874
          you help Bootleg          
   the Vampire Slayer over there.   

458
00:15:58,916 --> 00:16:00,501
       -Okay? [clears throat]       
               -Okay.               

459
00:16:00,542 --> 00:16:03,587
     I'm-a go drain this pipe.      
           I'll be back.            

460

           [door closes]            

461
00:16:07,424 --> 00:16:09,093
          Hi, welcome to            
    Kareem's Larry's Bike Shop,     

462
00:16:09,134 --> 00:16:11,637
        the best bike place         
     on the planet. Shit. Drew?     

463
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:13,347
   -Yo, what are you doing here?    
             -Listen.               

464
00:16:13,389 --> 00:16:14,807
   Yo, you cannot stay here, man.   

465
00:16:14,848 --> 00:16:16,141
    There was a cop just in here    
          looking for you.          

466
00:16:16,183 --> 00:16:17,810
      He was asking about you.      
           You got to go.           

467
00:16:17,851 --> 00:16:19,520
         They was in here?          
        What you tell them?         

468
00:16:19,561 --> 00:16:20,688
    I didn't tell them anything.    
             What, I...             

469
00:16:20,729 --> 00:16:22,272
 I didn't know what to tell them. 

470
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:23,399
           And I haven't            
        seen Kevin, either.         

471
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,775
 Man, I ain't come here for that. 

472
00:16:24,817 --> 00:16:26,485
        I need to get Zayna         
          back in school.           

473
00:16:26,527 --> 00:16:29,113
      Okay. Wh-what can I do?       
 I'm not even teaching right now. 

474
00:16:29,154 --> 00:16:30,322
          Dude, that shit           
         got me suspended.          

475
00:16:30,364 --> 00:16:32,241
         I can't run around         
          for you anymore.          

476
00:16:32,282 --> 00:16:34,994
   [laughs] Yo, I shouldn't even    
   be talking to this nigga, son.   

477

        -Who you talking to?        
        -Can't believe I let

          fuck my life up.          

479
00:16:39,373 --> 00:16:40,916
       I fucked up your life?       

480
00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:43,502
       Drew, you shot a guy.        
      All right? That was you.      

481
00:16:43,544 --> 00:16:45,504
       You fucked up my life,       
   Kevin's life and Zayna's life.   

482
00:16:45,546 --> 00:16:47,673
       -Enough, man. No more.       
               -What?               

483
00:16:47,715 --> 00:16:50,676
   You fucked that girl's life up   
    not bringing her back to me.    

484
00:16:50,718 --> 00:16:53,345
           You did that,            
    and you gonna fix it, okay?     

485
00:16:53,387 --> 00:16:55,097
      How am I gonna fix it?        
     She doesn't listen to me.      

486
00:16:55,139 --> 00:16:57,808

         -Yeah, man, look,          

488
00:17:01,395 --> 00:17:03,272

00:17:08,777 --> 00:17:10,571

       Look, Zayna, I would         
      love for you to testify

             -Shut up.              
    -No, I'm not going to jail.     

518
00:18:00,704 --> 00:18:03,582
   No. I'm trying to teach again.   
       The opposite of jail.        

519
00:18:03,624 --> 00:18:04,917
                -Oh.                
               -Look,

       to be asking you this,       

521
00:18:06,335 --> 00:18:07,711
   but I need student testimony,

00:18:07,753 --> 00:18:09,213
 and I know last year was a mess, 

523
00:18:09,254 --> 00:18:11,090
        but I always really         
       tried to help you out.

 But Zayna, I got your belt back,

    also learned a thing or two.    

528
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:22,267
 [chuckles] What's in it for me?   

529

               $250.                

531
00:18:27,147 --> 00:18:28,398
                No.                 

532
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,734
            Well, guess             
      you don't need me, then.      

533
00:18:30,776 --> 00:18:32,194
   -He ain't talkin' money, we...   
       -Anyway, so let's talk

00:18:33,612 --> 00:18:35,197
              -Right.               
           -Right? Girl.

        'Cause I don't know         
    why he not talk about money.

         I'm not gonna be           
        blackmailed, Zayna.         

538
00:18:38,158 --> 00:18:41,120
            Hmm? Oh. Oh?            

539
00:18:41,161 --> 00:18:42,704
   [British accent] I'm not going   
     to be blackmailed, Zayna.      

540
00:18:42,746 --> 00:18:44,123
      I don't sound like that.      

541
00:18:44,164 --> 00:18:45,791
 -[mocking] When the balls drop.   
             -[laughs]              

542
00:18:45,833 --> 00:18:47,709
               [Dan]                
 Look, all right, stop laughing.   

543
00:18:47,751 --> 00:18:49,419
            All right?              
      You guys are very mean.       

544
00:18:49,461 --> 00:18:51,588
 -I'm sorry, what I meant to say   
               -Wow.

00:18:53,841 --> 00:18:56,718
    The hearing is in one hour,     
         at school, okay?

            Show up, say            
     five nice things about me,     

548
00:18:58,637 --> 00:19:00,264
         and you'll never           
       have to see me again.        

549
00:19:00,305 --> 00:19:01,849
      Amaya, you can help her       
     with the five nice things.     

550
00:19:01,890 --> 00:19:03,892
     It's like a group project.     

551
00:19:03,934 --> 00:19:05,727
 [regular voice] Yeah, for $250.

00:19:08,564 --> 00:19:10,732
               [Dan]                
            Okay, fine.

00:19:14,361 --> 00:19:17,281
     Here's $140. I'll pay you      
 the other $110 after you show up 

557
00:19:17,322 --> 00:19:19,366

00:19:19,408 --> 00:19:21,201
 ...borrow money f-from somebody. 

559
00:19:21,243 --> 00:19:24,663
    You bet. For $250, I'll say     
     one nice thing about you.      

560
00:19:24,705 --> 00:19:25,873
             Not five.              

561
00:19:25,914 --> 00:19:27,624
       No, three nice things.

    Mm, for three nice things,      
    that's gonna cost you $300.     

563
00:19:32,254 --> 00:19:34,381
       Okay, that seems fair.       
           That's a deal.           

564
00:19:34,423 --> 00:19:37,050
           You got to say           
    three different nice things,    

565
00:19:37,092 --> 00:19:38,510
 not one nice thing three times.   

566
00:19:38,552 --> 00:19:39,970
           -No loopholes.           
     -That's fair. That's fair.     

567
00:19:40,012 --> 00:19:41,847
            -Whatever.              
   -All right. It's in one hour.

00:19:41,889 --> 00:19:44,308
      Also, hey, Drew told me       
    I was your favorite teacher?    

569
00:19:44,349 --> 00:19:46,185
           [laughs] Boy.            

570
00:19:46,226 --> 00:19:48,187

00:19:52,482 --> 00:19:53,942
      just tell him I did try       
     to get you back in school.

00:19:53,984 --> 00:19:55,527
       That I gave it, like,

576
00:19:57,237 --> 00:19:59,031
        to consider learning        
        in a whole new way.         

577
00:19:59,072 --> 00:20:00,365
          I can throw in            
       another ten for that.        

578
00:20:00,407 --> 00:20:02,367
        Amaya, keep it real.        

579
00:20:02,409 --> 00:20:04,036

    -That's a weirdo, that one.

 -You know, jittering, sweating,   

583
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:12,878
        scratching his face.        
            Look at him.

00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,880
        I've seen that look         
   from a lot of different dudes.   

585
00:20:14,922 --> 00:20:17,049
           -He tweaking.            
             -Mm-hmm.               

586
00:20:17,090 --> 00:20:20,260
 That's what they say about him,   
       why he got suspended.        

587
00:20:20,302 --> 00:20:22,429
              [laughs]

             -[laughs]              
      -[Desmond] Are you sure

              -Mm-mm.

00:20:32,898 --> 00:20:34,566
 -Now, he's not no white savior.   
              -Mm-mm.               

593
00:20:34,608 --> 00:20:36,235
       He's a white failure.        

594
00:20:36,276 --> 00:20:39,238
     And that's inspirational,      
      'cause he keeps trying.       

595
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:41,073
    You know what Whitney said,     
   "the children are the future,"

           -Okay, well--

           -Well-- Well--           
 -Oh, I'm doing better than him." 

602
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:54,169
       You know what I mean?        
        It's inspirational.         

603
00:20:54,211 --> 00:20:55,254
     -[Dan] Okay. All right--       
 -That's what I'm trying to say.

               Okay.                

607
00:20:58,298 --> 00:20:59,591
          -That was great.          
            -All right.             

608
00:20:59,633 --> 00:21:01,343
         I got this outfit          
         from Fashion Nova.         

609
00:21:01,385 --> 00:21:02,844
    You know, sis, if you want      
    to call me about something,     

610
00:21:02,886 --> 00:21:04,429
        -you need to style.         
       -Thank you, Doctor...        

611
00:21:04,471 --> 00:21:05,931
          She's a doctor,           
 so everything she said, just...   

612
00:21:05,973 --> 00:21:07,516
      -They know I'm a doctor.      
        -...double it, yeah.        

613
00:21:07,557 --> 00:21:09,059
             [Flowers]              
          Yeah, I'm done.           

614
00:21:09,101 --> 00:21:11,895
       He ain't pay me enough       
       to be here. [chuckles]       

615
00:21:11,937 --> 00:21:14,064
           [arbitrator]             
     Are you okay, Mr. Joseph?      

616
00:21:14,106 --> 00:21:15,399
     [Dan] Yeah, sorry, I was       
    just getting comfortable...     

617
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,150
           with my phone.           

618
00:21:18,485 --> 00:21:20,737
       Okay, well, if there's       
         no more witnesses,         

619
00:21:20,779 --> 00:21:22,281
     -we do have other cases--      
        -[Dan] No, oh, uh,          

620
00:21:22,322 --> 00:21:24,241
   I'm sure we can find someone.    
           We're just--             

621
00:21:24,283 --> 00:21:26,451
            Wait, wait,             
     Your Honor, I'll testify.      

622
00:21:26,493 --> 00:21:27,786
            No, no, no,             
     not-not that someone. No.      

623
00:21:27,828 --> 00:21:28,745
          -Kareem, Kareem.          
       -I got you. I got you.       

624
00:21:28,787 --> 00:21:29,621
       Don't worry about it.        

625
00:21:29,663 --> 00:21:30,956
       [Kareem clears throat]       

626
00:21:30,998 --> 00:21:33,667
        Kareem. Dan's daddy.        

627
00:21:33,709 --> 00:21:36,962
      Ya Honor, my son's been       
 a model citizen in my bike shop. 

628
00:21:37,004 --> 00:21:39,631
      After y'all stripped him      
         of all his glory.          

629
00:21:39,673 --> 00:21:42,926
 But ever since I have conducted   
   rehab out of his apartment...    

630
00:21:42,968 --> 00:21:44,803
       -Jesus fucking Christ.       
        -...he's been cured         

631
00:21:44,845 --> 00:21:46,430
   -of all his dope fiend demons.   
     -No, no, you're saying...      

632
00:21:46,471 --> 00:21:49,433
 -You're saying too much, Kareem. 
        -No, that's enough.         

633
00:21:49,474 --> 00:21:51,643
          -Thank you, sir.          
        -[Kareem] And-and...        

634
00:21:51,685 --> 00:21:53,478
         -No more, no more.         
          -And... hold on.          

635
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,480
 We have a sale at my bike shop.   

636
00:21:55,522 --> 00:21:57,649
           That's right.            
       For all city workers.        

637
00:21:57,691 --> 00:22:01,445
        And five percent off        
          all kickstands.           

638
00:22:01,486 --> 00:22:03,071
       Y'all should stop by.        

639
00:22:03,113 --> 00:22:04,406
               [Dan]                
       You're marketing now?        

640
00:22:04,448 --> 00:22:06,158
          -Jesus Christ...          
            -Mr. Joseph.            

641
00:22:07,159 --> 00:22:08,744
            -Mr. Joseph.            
            -Yes. Sorry.            

642
00:22:08,785 --> 00:22:10,329
     Yeah, I'm... No, I'm okay.     

643
00:22:10,370 --> 00:22:13,165
    I-I didn't ask that, but now    
      you have me wondering...      

644
00:22:13,206 --> 00:22:15,167
              -Right.               
         -Look, do you have         

645
00:22:15,208 --> 00:22:16,585
    any student testimony, sir?     

646
00:22:16,626 --> 00:22:18,295
            -[Dan] Yes.             
     -If not, we can end this.      

647
00:22:18,337 --> 00:22:19,963
        No, yes, I do. Um...        

648
00:22:20,005 --> 00:22:22,132
        Uh, can we take, uh,        
   can we take a recess for the--   

649
00:22:22,174 --> 00:22:24,676
          The main concern          
         is not one student         

650
00:22:24,718 --> 00:22:26,094
      has come to support you.      

651
00:22:26,136 --> 00:22:27,763
      It's just your therapist      
          and your stepdad          

652
00:22:27,804 --> 00:22:29,890
   -who tried to sell me a bike.    
     -That was at a discount.       

653
00:22:29,931 --> 00:22:31,892
         [Dan] Okay, look,          
     can I speak on my behalf?      

654
00:22:31,933 --> 00:22:33,143
          Yes, I violated           
         rules of protocol,         

655
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:34,728
     but there are grey areas.      

656
00:22:34,770 --> 00:22:36,646
    I was doing the best I could    
      under the circumstances.      

657
00:22:36,688 --> 00:22:38,357
         Maybe better than          
        anyone's ever done.         

658
00:22:38,398 --> 00:22:41,651
            Do you have             
      student testimony, sir?       

659
00:22:41,693 --> 00:22:43,236
             Yes, I do.             
   She should be here any moment.   

660
00:22:43,278 --> 00:22:45,155
   It's busy season for homework.   

661
00:22:45,197 --> 00:22:46,823
      [Kareem] Your Highness,       
        I'll testify again.         

662
00:22:46,865 --> 00:22:48,492
   Sir, you can't testify again.    

663
00:22:48,533 --> 00:22:49,826
 -Look, he's just trying to help. 
       -Let me explain to you       

664
00:22:49,868 --> 00:22:51,244
          how this works:           
         I ask questions...         

665
00:22:51,286 --> 00:22:53,038
       [overlapping chatter]        

666
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,664
     Based on the facts you're      
 presenting, I don't know what--   

667
00:22:54,706 --> 00:22:56,375
          [chatter stops]           

668
00:22:56,416 --> 00:22:59,878
       Sir, I'd like to call        
   Zayna Bien-Aime to the stand.    

669
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:03,548
       This is not a court.         
 She can just sit down and talk.   

670
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:06,385
     [Dan] Well, I-I call her       
     to sit down and-and chat.      

671
00:23:06,426 --> 00:23:08,428
           Here's Zayna.            

672
00:23:10,389 --> 00:23:12,015
          State your name.          

673
00:23:12,057 --> 00:23:13,558
          Zayna Bien-Aime.          

674
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,685
       And your relationship        
          to Mr. Joseph?            

675
00:23:15,727 --> 00:23:18,230
                -Ew.                
       -You know what I mean.       

676
00:23:19,606 --> 00:23:21,858
    -He was my science teacher.     
              -I was.               

677
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:25,570
         Can you describe           
    Mr. Joseph as your teacher?     

678
00:23:26,571 --> 00:23:28,156
                Hmm.                

679
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:29,991
       He was a good teacher.       

680
00:23:30,033 --> 00:23:31,660
         He has nice hair.          

681
00:23:31,701 --> 00:23:33,245
                Mm.                 

682
00:23:33,286 --> 00:23:37,040
        Mm, oh, and he never        
         tried to touch me.         

683
00:23:37,082 --> 00:23:38,250
            That's true.            

684
00:23:38,291 --> 00:23:40,210
         Can you elaborate?         

685
00:23:40,252 --> 00:23:41,294
        Oh, she doesn't have        
         to elaborate, th--         

686
00:23:41,336 --> 00:23:42,629
     It would help if she did.      

687
00:23:42,671 --> 00:23:44,756
       That was three things.       
          Okay, I don't...          

688
00:23:44,798 --> 00:23:46,508
      I don't have more money       
          for more stuff.           

689
00:23:48,510 --> 00:23:50,470
              [sighs]               

690
00:23:50,512 --> 00:23:54,224
         Mr. Joseph is not          
        my favorite teacher.        

691
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:57,602
         Actually, he's not         
        a very good teacher.        

692
00:23:57,644 --> 00:24:00,480
        He doesn't even make        
        the top 30 percent.         

693
00:24:00,522 --> 00:24:02,482
       I've had gym teachers        
       teach me more science.       

694
00:24:02,524 --> 00:24:04,609
         -That's troubling.         
              -I know.              

695
00:24:07,404 --> 00:24:11,741
        But he... he cares.         

696
00:24:11,783 --> 00:24:13,785
               Um...                

697
00:24:15,162 --> 00:24:18,957
 One time, a parent threatened     
      to beat up a student          

698
00:24:18,999 --> 00:24:21,793
     and Mr. Joseph stepped up      
            to stop it.             

699
00:24:21,835 --> 00:24:25,464
   He helped me get my belt back    
     from a girl who stole it.      

700
00:24:25,505 --> 00:24:27,215
             And, um...             

701
00:24:28,508 --> 00:24:30,886
 ...he helped keep a student safe 

702
00:24:30,927 --> 00:24:33,889
 who didn't want to go home once   

703
00:24:33,930 --> 00:24:36,308
   'cause of their toxic family.    

704
00:24:36,349 --> 00:24:39,478
            So... yeah.             

705
00:24:40,437 --> 00:24:42,063
     Is that enough? Can I go?      

706
00:24:43,190 --> 00:24:45,358
   Is there any reason to believe   

707
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,904
          that Mr. Joseph           
       is not a fit teacher?        

708
00:24:50,739 --> 00:24:52,240
                No.                 

709
00:24:53,492 --> 00:24:54,951
        [quietly] Thank you.        

710
00:24:54,993 --> 00:24:56,161
            [arbitrator]            
            Mr. Joseph?             

711
00:24:56,203 --> 00:24:57,621
       Yeah? What's going on?       

712
00:24:57,662 --> 00:25:01,833
   Our schools are understaffed.    
         We need teachers.          

713
00:25:01,875 --> 00:25:03,960
     Y-Your student evaluations     
           were positive,           

714
00:25:04,002 --> 00:25:05,670
 and there's no reason to believe 

715
00:25:05,712 --> 00:25:07,547
          you're a danger           
         to your students.          

716
00:25:07,589 --> 00:25:11,051
 In fact, most of your witnesses   
   emphasized how weak you are.     

717
00:25:11,092 --> 00:25:12,469
      -Oh, he is weak, but...       
             -Brittle.              

718
00:25:12,511 --> 00:25:14,346
            -That part.             
     -[Flowers] Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.     

719
00:25:14,387 --> 00:25:16,640
      And now all of them have      
    emphasized how weak you are.    

720
00:25:16,681 --> 00:25:19,809
      So, it is New York City       
     Department of Education's      

721
00:25:19,851 --> 00:25:22,354
             conclusion             
       of your hearing 3020-A       

722
00:25:22,395 --> 00:25:24,356
    that we will reinstate you.     

723
00:25:24,397 --> 00:25:25,649
            -All right.             
          -[Dan] Oh, man.           

724
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:26,983
         Thought that would         
         go the other way.          

725
00:25:27,025 --> 00:25:29,486
           But we will be           
         instituting a fine         

726
00:25:29,528 --> 00:25:32,697
       of half your salary,         
   which is already very little.    

727
00:25:32,739 --> 00:25:35,200
         So v-very little,          
     now is cut in half? Okay.      

728
00:25:35,242 --> 00:25:38,245
              -So...                
      -I don't accept checks.       

729
00:25:40,247 --> 00:25:42,374
 Oh, this is just allergies here. 

730
00:25:42,415 --> 00:25:44,501
     Um... Hey, thank you again     
         for coming, Zayna.         

731
00:25:44,543 --> 00:25:46,461
       -It really means a lot       
 -No, you don't deserve to teach. 

732
00:25:46,503 --> 00:25:47,712
          Well, I-I agree           
          I'm not top 30%           

733
00:25:47,754 --> 00:25:49,214
   of teachers, but probably 35.    

734
00:25:49,256 --> 00:25:51,258
        I know you're still         
          tweaking, bro.            

735
00:25:51,299 --> 00:25:53,885
     No, tweaking's subjective.     

736
00:25:53,927 --> 00:25:55,554
          Everybody knows           
         you're an addict.          

737
00:25:55,595 --> 00:25:57,639
     That's probably why nobody     
       from class showed up.        

738
00:25:57,681 --> 00:26:00,058
 No, I-I didn't want them there.   
        I-I only wanted you         

739
00:26:00,100 --> 00:26:01,685
 -'cause you're my best student-- 
          -You need help.           

740
00:26:08,483 --> 00:26:10,569
   -Can you just pay me already?    
           -Yeah. Sorry.            

741
00:26:12,529 --> 00:26:15,073
               Mm...

    Oh, we're actually not, um,     
         doing intros yet.

       -Oh, sorry about that.       
     -Yeah, we're going to, um,
