1
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:03,670
[heavy breathing]

2
00:00:33,367 --> 00:00:35,327
[heart monitor beeping]

3
00:00:37,788 --> 00:00:41,667
[speaking Spanish]

4
00:00:41,750 --> 00:00:43,168
You're back with us!

5
00:00:45,963 --> 00:00:51,385
Manousos, can you hear us?
How are you feeling?

6
00:00:52,761 --> 00:00:55,514
Do you remember what happened to you?

7
00:00:56,348 --> 00:00:57,766
You gave us quite a scare.

8
00:00:59,226 --> 00:01:03,021
The good news is that the infection
is responding to antibiotics.

9
00:01:04,772 --> 00:01:08,694
However, you'll probably need
to stay here awhile.

10
00:01:10,237 --> 00:01:12,656
You have to regain your strength.

11
00:01:19,663 --> 00:01:20,664
Manousos.

12
00:01:21,373 --> 00:01:24,501
We understand this is a lot to process.

13
00:01:24,585 --> 00:01:30,090
But you need more time to heal.
Your body, it needs rest, it needs--

14
00:01:30,174 --> 00:01:31,633
I am leaving.

15
00:01:33,051 --> 00:01:34,511
What do I owe?

16
00:01:35,012 --> 00:01:36,889
The bill! What do I owe?

17
00:01:38,223 --> 00:01:39,349
You owe us nothing.

18
00:01:40,642 --> 00:01:41,768
Not you.

19
00:01:41,852 --> 00:01:45,272
The real people who were here before.

20
00:01:45,606 --> 00:01:49,735
The hospital. Stitches, medicine.
Everything costs something!

21
00:01:50,027 --> 00:01:51,111
Before The Joining,

22
00:01:51,195 --> 00:01:55,324
your treatments from this
particular hospital would have cost…

23
00:01:55,407 --> 00:02:00,662
$8,277.53 in either
Balboas or American dollars.

24
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:01,997
Balboas?

25
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,498
[breathing heavily]

26
00:02:04,374 --> 00:02:05,918
I'm in Panama?

27
00:02:08,836 --> 00:02:11,173
Will you be requiring an itemized receipt?

28
00:02:17,387 --> 00:02:19,765
- [button clicks]
- [printer whirring]

29
00:02:22,184 --> 00:02:25,854
I, Manousos Oviedo,
owe this hospital $8,277.53.

30
00:02:25,938 --> 00:02:28,565
Plus one ambulance.

31
00:02:28,649 --> 00:02:30,651
[breathes heavily]

32
00:02:43,914 --> 00:02:46,583
[door beeping]

33
00:02:49,878 --> 00:02:51,129
[beeping stops]

34
00:02:51,213 --> 00:02:52,464
[engine starts]

35
00:03:04,268 --> 00:03:06,270
[theme song playing]

36
00:03:47,019 --> 00:03:48,270
[faucet stops]

37
00:04:04,494 --> 00:04:06,705
- [grunts]
- Oh, please don't get up.

38
00:04:06,788 --> 00:04:08,248
- Sorry.
- Our pleasure.

39
00:04:09,541 --> 00:04:11,210
- Thanks. [sighs]
- Uh-huh.

40
00:04:24,431 --> 00:04:25,682
- [sighs]
- Thank you.

41
00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:29,061
Cheers.

42
00:04:29,144 --> 00:04:30,145
Oh, cheers.

43
00:04:39,321 --> 00:04:40,447
It's not too sweet?

44
00:04:41,073 --> 00:04:42,991
I always worry I don't add enough water.

45
00:04:43,075 --> 00:04:44,743
- It's perfect.
- Yeah?

46
00:04:46,537 --> 00:04:48,872
'Cause I can add more if you want.
Uh, water.

47
00:04:49,498 --> 00:04:50,499
[chuckles]

48
00:04:51,291 --> 00:04:52,292
[sniffles]

49
00:04:55,212 --> 00:04:56,755
The O'Keeffe looks good in here.

50
00:04:58,173 --> 00:04:59,174
[Carol] Oh.

51
00:05:00,092 --> 00:05:02,511
[stammers] I was about to return that.

52
00:05:02,594 --> 00:05:04,930
Oh, we think
it looks wonderful right there.

53
00:05:05,013 --> 00:05:07,349
[stammers] I was… [inhales deeply]

54
00:05:07,432 --> 00:05:11,478
…just, um, keeping it safe, really.

55
00:05:12,104 --> 00:05:14,439
There's been a lot of animals
roaming around here.

56
00:05:15,482 --> 00:05:16,483
Wolves.

57
00:05:17,359 --> 00:05:19,903
Buffalo. Buffalos.

58
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:25,242
And if they were to wander
into the museums

59
00:05:25,325 --> 00:05:28,078
and start rubbing up
against the paintings, it's gonna be…

60
00:05:28,620 --> 00:05:29,830
Yeah.

61
00:05:29,913 --> 00:05:31,915
That could be problematic.

62
00:05:34,042 --> 00:05:37,713
We can secure all those buildings
if you like.

63
00:05:37,796 --> 00:05:38,797
Great.

64
00:05:39,298 --> 00:05:40,465
That would be great.

65
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:43,594
Don't want a buffalo eating the Mona Lisa.

66
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:44,970
[chuckles]

67
00:06:06,116 --> 00:06:07,784
I don't know what to talk about.

68
00:06:11,163 --> 00:06:13,332
Who says we have to? [chuckles]

69
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:17,920
How about a board game?

70
00:06:21,798 --> 00:06:23,926
- Seriously?
- Mm-hmm. Could be fun.

71
00:06:28,514 --> 00:06:30,390
- All right.
- [chuckles]

72
00:06:32,518 --> 00:06:33,519
[Carol] Um…

73
00:06:36,230 --> 00:06:37,814
Mmm…

74
00:06:43,028 --> 00:06:44,696
[sighs]

75
00:06:44,780 --> 00:06:47,658
[clicks tongue] So, what are we feeling?

76
00:06:48,617 --> 00:06:50,160
- [chuckles softly]
- Um…

77
00:06:51,954 --> 00:06:53,497
- Bananagrams?
- Ah.

78
00:06:54,289 --> 00:06:56,166
No. That wouldn't be any fun.

79
00:06:56,250 --> 00:06:58,085
- You know all the words.
- [chuckles]

80
00:06:58,168 --> 00:06:59,169
Um…

81
00:06:59,795 --> 00:07:01,547
Chess. No.

82
00:07:01,630 --> 00:07:02,881
Jesus, no.

83
00:07:02,965 --> 00:07:05,717
[stammers] Also, you're missing
a white rook, remember?

84
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:08,262
But we can get you a new one.

85
00:07:08,345 --> 00:07:12,182
[groans] What else we got?

86
00:07:12,266 --> 00:07:13,267
Um…

87
00:07:14,142 --> 00:07:17,813
Risk. Oh, world domination.
That's hilarious.

88
00:07:18,939 --> 00:07:20,816
Not sure why we even have that one.

89
00:07:20,899 --> 00:07:21,900
Um…

90
00:07:23,569 --> 00:07:25,696
What about the one you used to play
with your cousins?

91
00:07:34,997 --> 00:07:37,749
- [Zosia] Ah. [groans]
- [exclaims] Too slow.

92
00:07:39,459 --> 00:07:42,629
Are you letting me win?
Or do you just suck at this?

93
00:07:42,713 --> 00:07:45,465
[gasps] Keep playing and you'll find out.

94
00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:51,722
I have not thought
about this game in years.

95
00:07:52,848 --> 00:07:56,602
- Hmm.
- My nana had a blue deck and a red deck,

96
00:07:56,685 --> 00:08:00,814
and she used to make us put 'em all back
in the right boxes before we put 'em away.

97
00:08:01,773 --> 00:08:03,233
Loser has to sort.

98
00:08:06,612 --> 00:08:08,447
Would you like your cousin Henry
to come visit?

99
00:08:08,989 --> 00:08:11,658
You haven't seen him since Christmas 2005.

100
00:08:13,243 --> 00:08:16,747
It would be exactly
like talking to you, right?

101
00:08:19,416 --> 00:08:20,459
Then, nah.

102
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:23,420
He didn't wanna see me these past 41 days,
why bother now?

103
00:08:23,504 --> 00:08:24,922
[cards shuffle]

104
00:08:26,632 --> 00:08:29,301
So why do they call it spit?

105
00:08:30,344 --> 00:08:31,887
[Zosia] We don't know exactly.

106
00:08:31,970 --> 00:08:33,639
What do you mean? You know everything.

107
00:08:33,722 --> 00:08:35,097
- Right? Spit.
- Uh-huh.

108
00:08:35,682 --> 00:08:36,683
[clicks tongue]

109
00:08:36,767 --> 00:08:39,227
We know it originated
in the UK during the '80s.

110
00:08:39,311 --> 00:08:43,273
There's different theories as to
who named it, but no clear answer.

111
00:08:43,357 --> 00:08:44,942
- Uh, ready?
- Mm-hmm.

112
00:08:45,025 --> 00:08:46,026
Spit.

113
00:08:47,027 --> 00:08:48,987
In 1986, a man named…

114
00:08:49,530 --> 00:08:51,406
- Oh!
- Ha! [chuckles]

115
00:08:51,490 --> 00:08:52,491
Wow.

116
00:08:52,574 --> 00:08:55,285
It's like playing cards
with fucking Google.

117
00:09:00,582 --> 00:09:02,501
Is everyone back now?

118
00:09:03,460 --> 00:09:06,880
Mostly. Another hour or two should do it.

119
00:09:11,176 --> 00:09:13,303
[sighs] Um…

120
00:09:13,804 --> 00:09:14,805
Do you…

121
00:09:16,765 --> 00:09:19,101
You think you guys could maybe, um,
power wash that up?

122
00:09:20,727 --> 00:09:21,979
[chuckles] Absolutely.

123
00:09:23,021 --> 00:09:24,064
Thanks.

124
00:09:27,109 --> 00:09:29,486
Well, uh, have a good night.

125
00:09:31,488 --> 00:09:33,657
Carol, we can stick around if you like.

126
00:09:33,740 --> 00:09:34,867
As long as you want.

127
00:09:34,950 --> 00:09:37,160
What? No. No, no.
I'm sure you have things to do.

128
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:40,622
And I've got, like,
a bunch of chores, whatnot.

129
00:09:50,757 --> 00:09:52,467
It just, uh, occurred to me… [stammers]

130
00:09:52,551 --> 00:09:54,761
…I never even thought
to ask you where you live.

131
00:09:55,262 --> 00:09:57,890
There's no such thing
as ownership anymore.

132
00:09:58,557 --> 00:09:59,808
No private property.

133
00:10:00,851 --> 00:10:03,854
Wherever we hang our hat is our home.

134
00:10:04,479 --> 00:10:05,480
[Carol] Right, but…

135
00:10:06,064 --> 00:10:07,733
I mean, where do you sleep at night?

136
00:10:08,275 --> 00:10:09,526
[Zosia] We can show you.

137
00:10:19,995 --> 00:10:20,996
[grunts]

138
00:10:27,336 --> 00:10:28,837
Everybody sleeps together?

139
00:10:29,546 --> 00:10:30,547
Mm-hmm.

140
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:32,591
Why?

141
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:35,219
It saves on electricity.

142
00:10:35,302 --> 00:10:36,386
Natural gas.

143
00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:41,141
It's more efficient to heat and cool
one big room than hundreds of small ones.

144
00:10:42,643 --> 00:10:45,896
This isn't gonna turn into the orgy scene
at the end of that Matrix movie, is it?

145
00:10:45,979 --> 00:10:47,397
Not unless you want it to.

146
00:10:52,361 --> 00:10:54,238
- [chuckles]
- [chuckles]

147
00:10:57,282 --> 00:10:59,743
[Zosia] We make use of spaces
like this all over the world.

148
00:10:59,826 --> 00:11:03,080
- Malls, churches, convention centers.
- [Carol] Oh.

149
00:11:03,163 --> 00:11:05,749
Wait, this dog is not one of you, is it?

150
00:11:05,832 --> 00:11:06,959
[chuckles] Definitely not.

151
00:11:07,042 --> 00:11:08,961
Though he is a very good boy.

152
00:11:09,044 --> 00:11:10,963
His name is Bear Jordan.

153
00:11:11,046 --> 00:11:13,549
- Hey. Hey, Bear.
- [chuckles]

154
00:11:14,216 --> 00:11:15,926
Hey. [chuckles]

155
00:11:17,344 --> 00:11:20,097
- I didn't realize you kept pets.
- We don't.

156
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:24,643
But when an animal refuses to leave its
former owner's side, we take care of them.

157
00:11:25,894 --> 00:11:28,355
Bear is fond of Malcolm over there.

158
00:11:35,487 --> 00:11:37,155
Would you like to stay with us tonight?

159
00:11:40,409 --> 00:11:42,369
We can make you your own bed,
if you'd like.

160
00:11:42,452 --> 00:11:43,704
- Oh, no, no.
- In private.

161
00:11:43,787 --> 00:11:47,499
[stammers] That's okay.
I'm gonna, uh, head home.

162
00:11:48,166 --> 00:11:49,418
Whatever makes you happy.

163
00:11:50,294 --> 00:11:53,630
We can drive you.
Or you're welcome to take our car.

164
00:11:53,714 --> 00:11:55,215
I'll figure something out.

165
00:11:56,842 --> 00:11:58,302
[Zosia] Do you mind if we lie down?

166
00:11:58,886 --> 00:12:00,554
[Carol] Oh. Oh… Uh, please.

167
00:12:13,901 --> 00:12:15,235
[sighs]

168
00:12:18,822 --> 00:12:20,157
[person coughs]

169
00:12:38,675 --> 00:12:41,178
[people snoring]

170
00:13:26,431 --> 00:13:28,183
We had a wonderful time with you.

171
00:13:29,226 --> 00:13:30,811
We're very happy to be back.

172
00:13:32,229 --> 00:13:33,230
Yeah.

173
00:13:39,695 --> 00:13:41,530
Would you like us to make you breakfast?

174
00:13:43,532 --> 00:13:45,158
No, no. I can manage.

175
00:13:50,289 --> 00:13:51,707
I had a nice time too.

176
00:14:33,790 --> 00:14:34,875
[marker cap pops]

177
00:14:50,057 --> 00:14:51,600
- [marker squeaks]
- [cap pops]

178
00:14:53,101 --> 00:14:55,103
- [wind blowing]
- [Zosia breathes heavily]

179
00:15:01,443 --> 00:15:02,945
[Carol breathes heavily]

180
00:15:19,169 --> 00:15:20,504
[Carol sighing] Whoa.

181
00:15:21,713 --> 00:15:23,549
[Zosia] Hard to beat this view. [sighs]

182
00:15:33,225 --> 00:15:34,685
Man, I love trains.

183
00:15:36,937 --> 00:15:39,982
There's just something about
the sound of a train horn, you know?

184
00:15:40,566 --> 00:15:42,317
- What about it?
- Hmm?

185
00:15:43,318 --> 00:15:47,197
Come on, I must've told some human being
at some point that I love train horns.

186
00:15:52,244 --> 00:15:54,246
I thought you knew everything about me.

187
00:15:54,329 --> 00:15:55,455
Not this.

188
00:16:00,669 --> 00:16:02,254
[Carol clicks tongue] It is…

189
00:16:03,672 --> 00:16:05,257
the loneliest sound in the world.

190
00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:13,932
- [train horn blaring]
- [chuckles softly]

191
00:16:20,647 --> 00:16:21,857
How do you do that?

192
00:16:22,441 --> 00:16:26,695
Something to do with
the body's electromagnetic field.

193
00:16:26,778 --> 00:16:29,364
Our natural electric charge, so to speak.

194
00:16:30,115 --> 00:16:33,118
You have one too, just unused.

195
00:16:33,702 --> 00:16:36,622
So… like radio?

196
00:16:36,705 --> 00:16:37,789
Sort of.

197
00:16:37,873 --> 00:16:40,250
But radio transmission is like talking.

198
00:16:40,334 --> 00:16:41,585
It's conscious.

199
00:16:41,668 --> 00:16:43,712
Our communication is unconscious.

200
00:16:43,795 --> 00:16:44,880
Homeostatic.

201
00:16:45,631 --> 00:16:46,965
Like breathing.

202
00:16:48,383 --> 00:16:49,426
So…

203
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,805
- No. No.
- [chuckles]

204
00:16:53,889 --> 00:16:56,350
There's still a lot
we don't really understand.

205
00:16:56,433 --> 00:16:57,434
[Carol] Hmm.

206
00:17:00,187 --> 00:17:02,022
Why do you still need trains anyway?

207
00:17:06,609 --> 00:17:07,986
Food distribution.

208
00:17:12,699 --> 00:17:13,784
[sniffs]

209
00:17:13,867 --> 00:17:15,868
[tranquil music playing]

210
00:17:26,003 --> 00:17:28,382
[Carol moans]

211
00:17:28,464 --> 00:17:29,842
[Zosia] Carol, you okay?

212
00:17:30,592 --> 00:17:32,845
[Carol] Oh, yeah. I'm great. [chuckles]

213
00:17:32,928 --> 00:17:35,681
- Sorry. Carry on.
- Oh. [chuckles]

214
00:17:35,764 --> 00:17:36,932
[Carol sighs]

215
00:17:37,808 --> 00:17:39,351
Does this feel good to you too?

216
00:17:40,018 --> 00:17:41,478
[Zosia] Absolutely.

217
00:17:42,020 --> 00:17:43,146
So…

218
00:17:43,897 --> 00:17:46,275
Like… how?

219
00:17:46,775 --> 00:17:49,069
I mean, I know you're getting
a massage right now,

220
00:17:49,152 --> 00:17:52,865
but technically it's you
giving it to yourself.

221
00:17:53,448 --> 00:17:54,533
Yes.

222
00:17:55,659 --> 00:17:59,121
[Carol] Meanwhile, you're simultaneously
giving me a massage.

223
00:17:59,204 --> 00:18:01,915
- So, I mean…
- [chuckles] That's true.

224
00:18:07,254 --> 00:18:08,505
How does that work?

225
00:18:09,756 --> 00:18:13,135
Does everyone feel
what you're feeling right now?

226
00:18:14,178 --> 00:18:16,096
Is the whole world getting a massage?

227
00:18:16,930 --> 00:18:18,682
[Zosia] No. Not exactly.

228
00:18:19,474 --> 00:18:21,518
It's kind of like…

229
00:18:23,812 --> 00:18:25,397
In the last ten minutes,

230
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:31,695
there's been 1,674 deaths and 965 births.

231
00:18:32,654 --> 00:18:33,906
And… Oh.

232
00:18:34,489 --> 00:18:40,037
J-Just as we said this, a man in Bulgaria
was accidentally impaled on an iron fence.

233
00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:41,413
Oh, Jesus.

234
00:18:41,496 --> 00:18:42,497
Oh, it's okay.

235
00:18:42,581 --> 00:18:46,460
[stammers] We don't think he
pierced anything vital. [inhales deeply]

236
00:18:46,543 --> 00:18:50,380
To feel everything all at once
would be unbearable.

237
00:18:50,881 --> 00:18:53,759
But we know it as it happens.

238
00:18:54,426 --> 00:18:56,428
We're aware.

239
00:18:58,514 --> 00:19:02,059
Like we're aware
that you just got goose bumps.

240
00:19:06,355 --> 00:19:09,650
[inhales deeply] Having said all that…

241
00:19:09,733 --> 00:19:11,527
[exhales]

242
00:19:11,610 --> 00:19:16,031
…this massage feels… good.

243
00:19:16,114 --> 00:19:17,950
[inhales deeply]

244
00:19:18,033 --> 00:19:20,160
[moans]

245
00:19:25,374 --> 00:19:26,375
[clicks tongue]

246
00:19:29,461 --> 00:19:31,004
So, that's where it came from.

247
00:19:31,088 --> 00:19:32,089
[Zosia] That's it.

248
00:19:32,798 --> 00:19:34,007
Its star, anyway.

249
00:19:35,175 --> 00:19:37,010
- [Carol] Kepler-22.
- Uh-huh.

250
00:19:37,094 --> 00:19:40,597
And the planet, which you can't see,
is Kepler-22b.

251
00:19:41,098 --> 00:19:44,768
That's our name for it.
We have no idea what they call it.

252
00:19:45,727 --> 00:19:48,438
It's got a radius
roughly twice that of Earth,

253
00:19:48,522 --> 00:19:51,650
and we think their planet
may be one enormous ocean.

254
00:19:55,279 --> 00:20:00,909
Sometimes we close our eyes
and try to picture it.

255
00:20:10,919 --> 00:20:12,004
[sighs]

256
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,007
I'm not sure I'm looking
in the right spot.

257
00:20:15,507 --> 00:20:17,384
I mean, I see the…

258
00:20:17,968 --> 00:20:20,220
[sighs] …the Swan, I think.

259
00:20:20,304 --> 00:20:22,848
Do you see a star
brighter than the others?

260
00:20:23,348 --> 00:20:25,642
Uh… yes.

261
00:20:25,726 --> 00:20:27,102
That's Deneb.

262
00:20:27,186 --> 00:20:30,772
Then if you trace a straight line up
from the first section of wing,

263
00:20:30,856 --> 00:20:32,900
you should see a tiny dot of light.

264
00:20:32,983 --> 00:20:35,319
[stammers]
I can't tell one dot from the next.

265
00:20:35,402 --> 00:20:37,988
There's a lot of light pollution
coming from the city.

266
00:20:38,822 --> 00:20:40,657
Let's see what we can do about that.

267
00:20:46,580 --> 00:20:48,457
[dog howls]

268
00:20:49,082 --> 00:20:50,083
Wow.

269
00:20:53,462 --> 00:20:54,463
[Zosia] Try it now.

270
00:20:59,259 --> 00:21:02,012
We could place it in the center
of the eyepiece for you.

271
00:21:02,095 --> 00:21:03,639
Might make it easier for you to spot.

272
00:21:03,722 --> 00:21:06,099
[Carol] Oh, uh, wait a minute.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.

273
00:21:06,183 --> 00:21:07,351
Yeah, I think I see it.

274
00:21:07,851 --> 00:21:09,186
- [chuckling] I see it.
- Yeah?

275
00:21:09,269 --> 00:21:11,188
- I do.
- [chuckling]

276
00:21:11,271 --> 00:21:12,564
[chuckles]

277
00:21:14,358 --> 00:21:16,151
Hmm. Yeah.

278
00:21:17,277 --> 00:21:18,278
[sighs]

279
00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:24,743
So, what are the people like
on Kepler-22b?

280
00:21:26,328 --> 00:21:28,413
We'll probably never learn
the first thing about them.

281
00:21:29,164 --> 00:21:30,249
They're too far away.

282
00:21:31,041 --> 00:21:32,918
But we know we love them.

283
00:21:33,418 --> 00:21:34,795
And we're grateful to them.

284
00:21:35,754 --> 00:21:38,423
And we'll pay it forward,
however long that may take.

285
00:21:39,049 --> 00:21:40,300
[Carol] What does that mean?

286
00:21:41,927 --> 00:21:43,512
We have to share their gift.

287
00:21:43,595 --> 00:21:46,265
With whoever else might be out there.

288
00:21:50,352 --> 00:21:54,231
Just to be clear, out there, "out there"?

289
00:21:55,524 --> 00:21:56,525
[Zosia] Mm-hmm.

290
00:21:57,734 --> 00:21:59,653
How exactly will you do that?

291
00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:02,281
[intriguing music playing]

292
00:22:02,364 --> 00:22:03,866
[marker squeaking]

293
00:22:42,654 --> 00:22:43,655
[phone beeps]

294
00:22:45,282 --> 00:22:47,242
- [music ends]
- Can you do me a favor?

295
00:22:47,826 --> 00:22:49,244
[doorbell chimes]

296
00:22:49,328 --> 00:22:50,787
- [drill whirring]
- [hammer pounding]

297
00:22:50,871 --> 00:22:51,872
Hey.

298
00:22:54,666 --> 00:22:55,667
Thanks. Thanks.

299
00:22:55,751 --> 00:22:57,461
Our pleasure. [sighs, inhales sharply]

300
00:22:57,544 --> 00:22:59,796
Does this mean what we think it means?

301
00:23:00,964 --> 00:23:02,883
- What?
- [Zosia] You're writing again?

302
00:23:03,967 --> 00:23:04,968
Writing…

303
00:23:05,886 --> 00:23:08,013
Wycaro. Yeah.

304
00:23:08,096 --> 00:23:09,640
Yeah. [clicks tongue]

305
00:23:09,723 --> 00:23:13,560
I had an idea and just started
filling up the whiteboard,

306
00:23:13,644 --> 00:23:15,604
and suddenly my marker ran dry.

307
00:23:16,188 --> 00:23:17,940
So, yeah. I'm writing again.

308
00:23:18,023 --> 00:23:20,817
Well, don't… don't let us keep you.

309
00:23:21,818 --> 00:23:25,405
We are just so excited
to have something new to read.

310
00:23:25,489 --> 00:23:27,199
And another Wycaro. [chuckles]

311
00:23:27,282 --> 00:23:29,910
That's only if you want to
share it with us, of course.

312
00:23:29,993 --> 00:23:31,411
Absolutely no pressure.

313
00:23:31,495 --> 00:23:32,788
Um…

314
00:23:32,871 --> 00:23:34,164
Sure.

315
00:23:34,790 --> 00:23:37,167
[workers] Happy writing, Carol.

316
00:23:38,627 --> 00:23:39,628
[Zosia chuckles]

317
00:24:05,988 --> 00:24:06,989
[chuckles softly]

318
00:24:42,608 --> 00:24:44,234
- [Carol groans]
- That was good.

319
00:24:45,652 --> 00:24:46,987
It was close.

320
00:24:47,070 --> 00:24:48,238
Whoopee.

321
00:24:48,322 --> 00:24:50,032
D-Don't patronize me.

322
00:24:50,115 --> 00:24:51,283
- [chuckles]
- I'm telling you.

323
00:24:51,366 --> 00:24:53,952
I swear to God, when I was a kid,
I used to crush this game.

324
00:24:54,036 --> 00:24:55,120
We know.

325
00:25:00,834 --> 00:25:02,336
Are you frickin' kidding me?

326
00:25:02,419 --> 00:25:03,420
Jesus.

327
00:25:04,087 --> 00:25:05,839
You told me you never played before.

328
00:25:05,923 --> 00:25:07,007
Zosia's never played.

329
00:25:07,090 --> 00:25:11,553
But we have the combined knowledge
of every living croquet champion,

330
00:25:11,637 --> 00:25:14,556
so that's, you know,
a bit of an advantage.

331
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,767
Yeah. I get that with, like,
chess or whatever,

332
00:25:16,850 --> 00:25:18,727
but hitting a ball is muscle memory.

333
00:25:19,895 --> 00:25:21,772
You guys all share that too?

334
00:25:22,773 --> 00:25:26,818
Maybe. Or maybe you just suck.

335
00:25:28,862 --> 00:25:29,863
[losing organ music plays]

336
00:25:29,947 --> 00:25:30,948
[Carol scoffs]

337
00:25:32,407 --> 00:25:35,244
- Huh! We're doing that.
- Mmm.

338
00:25:35,327 --> 00:25:37,037
Okay. Okay.

339
00:25:38,330 --> 00:25:42,918
Well, just for that, um… [clicks tongue]
…I'm gonna beat all seven billion of you.

340
00:25:43,001 --> 00:25:45,003
- Oh.
- Yep. So,

341
00:25:45,087 --> 00:25:48,549
seven billion butts about to get kicked.

342
00:25:49,758 --> 00:25:51,301
May we ask you a question?

343
00:25:51,385 --> 00:25:52,386
Sure.

344
00:25:53,554 --> 00:25:55,472
What was your best day writing?

345
00:25:55,556 --> 00:25:56,807
[snorts] No such thing.

346
00:25:57,432 --> 00:25:58,684
Really?

347
00:25:58,767 --> 00:26:00,561
Come on, you have other writers in there.

348
00:26:00,644 --> 00:26:02,604
You should know. That's like asking, uh,

349
00:26:02,688 --> 00:26:04,857
"What's the most fun you ever had
getting your teeth drilled?"

350
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:06,441
[groans]

351
00:26:06,525 --> 00:26:08,944
You poor, tortured artist.

352
00:26:09,611 --> 00:26:11,613
By the way, it's still my turn.

353
00:26:15,742 --> 00:26:16,827
Why are you asking?

354
00:26:36,013 --> 00:26:37,806
[bell chimes]

355
00:26:39,433 --> 00:26:42,936
This place has been closed for years.

356
00:26:49,818 --> 00:26:53,989
[chuckles] I never thought
I would be back here.

357
00:26:54,072 --> 00:26:56,074
[chuckling]

358
00:26:59,786 --> 00:27:01,079
[Zosia] May we join you?

359
00:27:01,163 --> 00:27:02,331
Uh, please, please.

360
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,376
[Zosia] Thanks.

361
00:27:06,460 --> 00:27:08,378
Would you tell us what you're feeling?

362
00:27:08,462 --> 00:27:10,631
We'd be honored to share it with you.

363
00:27:13,300 --> 00:27:14,384
[exhales sharply]

364
00:27:15,385 --> 00:27:16,595
Well, um…

365
00:27:18,722 --> 00:27:21,141
It all started right here. [chuckles]
As you obviously know.

366
00:27:21,225 --> 00:27:22,726
- [chuckles]
- [chuckles]

367
00:27:26,063 --> 00:27:29,441
I used to write longhand
on yellow legal pads.

368
00:27:30,108 --> 00:27:32,402
- That I stole from my temp job.
- [chuckles]

369
00:27:32,486 --> 00:27:37,741
I had like 20 of 'em, and I'd have to go
back and forth, scratch stuff out.

370
00:27:37,824 --> 00:27:41,453
The whole time, I'm just dreaming
of saving up enough money for a laptop.

371
00:27:41,537 --> 00:27:43,789
[chuckling] And then
I'd rip the pages out,

372
00:27:43,872 --> 00:27:47,251
clip them all together
with this giant metal clip,

373
00:27:47,334 --> 00:27:49,002
- which I also stole…
- [chuckles]

374
00:27:49,086 --> 00:27:52,506
…which took both hands to pry it open…

375
00:27:53,131 --> 00:27:56,969
[straining] …just enough
that I could add a single page.

376
00:27:57,052 --> 00:27:59,388
[laughing]

377
00:27:59,471 --> 00:28:02,057
It would give me huge dents in my palms.

378
00:28:02,140 --> 00:28:04,059
The whole thing was a fuckin' nightmare.

379
00:28:04,142 --> 00:28:05,978
[laughs]

380
00:28:06,854 --> 00:28:11,108
Oh, and there was this waitress, um… Bri.

381
00:28:12,109 --> 00:28:14,278
I loved her.
She kept my coffee topped off.

382
00:28:14,361 --> 00:28:17,239
She never hassled me
about hogging the booth all day long.

383
00:28:22,911 --> 00:28:24,246
Oh, my God.

384
00:28:27,207 --> 00:28:28,959
Take all the time you need, hon.

385
00:28:39,136 --> 00:28:41,388
[chuckles] This place.

386
00:28:41,889 --> 00:28:43,640
This place…

387
00:28:46,810 --> 00:28:48,395
was my escape.

388
00:28:50,564 --> 00:28:51,982
I was devastated when it…

389
00:28:55,485 --> 00:28:57,362
it… Wait, it burned down.

390
00:29:00,157 --> 00:29:01,283
You rebuilt it?

391
00:29:03,035 --> 00:29:04,745
From… Wait. From nothing?

392
00:29:05,329 --> 00:29:06,330
From an empty lot?

393
00:29:07,331 --> 00:29:08,457
We did.

394
00:29:18,133 --> 00:29:19,635
God, I miss those days.

395
00:29:21,595 --> 00:29:24,556
Working all night, so I could write
all morning, and then…

396
00:29:25,349 --> 00:29:27,935
I mean, those were the best days.

397
00:29:33,232 --> 00:29:35,943
[unsettling music playing]

398
00:29:41,114 --> 00:29:42,574
Is everything okay?

399
00:29:52,584 --> 00:29:53,585
Carol?

400
00:29:58,966 --> 00:30:00,467
[tires screech]

401
00:30:09,309 --> 00:30:11,311
- [music continues]
- [crickets chirping]

402
00:30:50,601 --> 00:30:52,060
[music ends]

403
00:31:08,994 --> 00:31:10,704
You left us kind of quickly today.

404
00:31:11,205 --> 00:31:12,623
Is everything all right?

405
00:31:12,706 --> 00:31:14,249
Yeah, peachy.

406
00:31:14,791 --> 00:31:16,084
Sarcasm.

407
00:31:16,168 --> 00:31:17,419
[smacks lips] Yes.

408
00:31:18,629 --> 00:31:20,797
You want a drink? You want a drink.

409
00:31:20,881 --> 00:31:23,091
We'll have one if it pleases you.

410
00:31:23,175 --> 00:31:24,676
[Carol] "We."

411
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,345
"We think. We want."

412
00:31:26,929 --> 00:31:29,181
- [bottle thuds]
- Would it kill you to say "I"?

413
00:31:30,098 --> 00:31:32,100
- Would it?
- [chuckles] Of course not.

414
00:31:33,769 --> 00:31:34,770
We…

415
00:31:35,687 --> 00:31:39,566
I… find it odd, semantically,

416
00:31:39,650 --> 00:31:40,943
but, of course, she could…

417
00:31:41,568 --> 00:31:42,569
We c…

418
00:31:42,653 --> 00:31:44,613
- [breathes deeply] Um…
- Wow.

419
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,116
All the brains in the world,
and you can't navigate a fucking pronoun.

420
00:31:49,243 --> 00:31:50,577
Is this why you're upset?

421
00:31:53,247 --> 00:31:55,958
[scoffs] Where was that waitress living?

422
00:31:56,041 --> 00:31:57,042
Bri.

423
00:31:57,543 --> 00:32:00,963
On "Joining Day,"
back when she was she, not you.

424
00:32:01,046 --> 00:32:02,256
Where was she?

425
00:32:02,339 --> 00:32:03,340
Miami.

426
00:32:03,423 --> 00:32:05,926
[Carol] Hmm. Working? Vacation?

427
00:32:06,426 --> 00:32:09,012
Working. As a cosmetologist.

428
00:32:09,596 --> 00:32:11,807
- Recently married. [chuckles]
- Oh.

429
00:32:11,890 --> 00:32:13,141
But not anymore.

430
00:32:13,225 --> 00:32:17,896
So, she had moved on with her life,
and then, what?

431
00:32:17,980 --> 00:32:23,944
You dragged her back here to do
a little playacting? Waitress theater?

432
00:32:24,820 --> 00:32:27,781
Carol, we're not sure we understand
what's troubling you.

433
00:32:28,907 --> 00:32:30,492
Can you be more specific?

434
00:32:30,576 --> 00:32:33,245
You are trying to distract me.

435
00:32:34,288 --> 00:32:35,581
Knock me off course.

436
00:32:37,457 --> 00:32:40,002
You rebuild my favorite diner,

437
00:32:40,627 --> 00:32:44,089
you jump for joy
when I tell you I'm writing again,

438
00:32:44,173 --> 00:32:45,382
but it's all an act.

439
00:32:45,465 --> 00:32:49,261
It's manipulative bullshit
because you know I haven't given up.

440
00:32:49,970 --> 00:32:50,971
Admit it.

441
00:32:52,055 --> 00:32:54,224
Tell me you know I won't give up.

442
00:32:55,642 --> 00:32:56,643
We know.

443
00:32:59,813 --> 00:33:01,940
- We wish you would.
- [scoffs]

444
00:33:03,192 --> 00:33:06,737
But it's also true we love Wycaro.

445
00:33:06,820 --> 00:33:08,864
All right, honesty.

446
00:33:09,364 --> 00:33:11,325
Let's go for it. Cards on the table.

447
00:33:11,909 --> 00:33:13,118
I like you.

448
00:33:13,202 --> 00:33:15,329
You people. You-You… whatever.

449
00:33:15,412 --> 00:33:16,997
[sighs] You're…

450
00:33:18,373 --> 00:33:20,876
There… There's a lot of things
that I like about you,

451
00:33:21,502 --> 00:33:23,086
but this?

452
00:33:23,712 --> 00:33:24,963
[sighs]

453
00:33:25,047 --> 00:33:27,007
This is a train wreck.

454
00:33:27,966 --> 00:33:29,718
This is unsustainable.

455
00:33:30,636 --> 00:33:33,514
It's mental illness. It's psychosis.

456
00:33:33,597 --> 00:33:37,142
You are starving, and you can't even
pick a goddamn apple off a tree?

457
00:33:37,226 --> 00:33:38,477
I… How…

458
00:33:40,687 --> 00:33:46,985
Someone has to put the world right,
even if it means you all leave me again.

459
00:33:47,069 --> 00:33:49,571
[shakily] Even if it means that I'm…

460
00:33:53,116 --> 00:33:55,202
[breathes deeply]

461
00:33:56,453 --> 00:33:57,538
[sighs]

462
00:34:04,711 --> 00:34:05,796
[kisses]

463
00:34:09,091 --> 00:34:10,132
[sighs]

464
00:34:17,724 --> 00:34:19,351
[Carol breathes shakily]

465
00:34:20,726 --> 00:34:21,728
[grunts]

466
00:34:22,521 --> 00:34:25,023
[moaning, panting]

467
00:34:31,737 --> 00:34:34,241
- [typing]
- [birds chirping]

468
00:34:38,745 --> 00:34:41,206
[inhales deeply, sighs]

469
00:34:43,250 --> 00:34:45,752
[typing continues]

470
00:35:16,074 --> 00:35:17,075
[knocks on door]

471
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,495
- Morning. [chuckles]
- Hey.

472
00:35:22,039 --> 00:35:23,415
[sighs]

473
00:35:23,498 --> 00:35:25,709
Uh, how long have you been awake?

474
00:35:25,792 --> 00:35:27,794
Uh… long enough. [chuckles]

475
00:35:35,177 --> 00:35:36,887
Do you want to read chapter one?

476
00:35:58,158 --> 00:36:00,619
- [door opens]
- [footsteps approach]

477
00:36:17,427 --> 00:36:19,555
- [chuckles] Don't leave me hanging.
- [chuckles]

478
00:36:20,848 --> 00:36:21,890
Raban…

479
00:36:23,767 --> 00:36:24,977
is a woman now.

480
00:36:25,060 --> 00:36:26,144
Long overdue.

481
00:36:26,812 --> 00:36:29,815
But I figured, now… [stammers] …why not?

482
00:36:29,898 --> 00:36:31,400
- [chuckles]
- Makes sense.

483
00:36:31,483 --> 00:36:34,528
So, are you going to just retcon it?

484
00:36:35,153 --> 00:36:37,322
[stammers, chuckles] No need.

485
00:36:37,406 --> 00:36:39,241
- It can happen canonically.
- How?

486
00:36:39,324 --> 00:36:41,660
The Font of Truth from the second book?

487
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:43,412
N-No. [chuckles]

488
00:36:43,495 --> 00:36:44,872
No, that wouldn't work.

489
00:36:44,955 --> 00:36:48,250
- No… [stammers] …yeah, you're right.
- The Shapeshifters of Gollinbray.

490
00:36:48,333 --> 00:36:49,334
[snorts]

491
00:36:50,544 --> 00:36:53,505
[grunts] I was thinking of
the Caverns of--

492
00:36:53,589 --> 00:36:55,090
- The Caverns of Aevalor.
- Yeah.

493
00:36:55,174 --> 00:36:58,802
- But weren't those lost to time?
- Well, sure.

494
00:36:58,886 --> 00:37:02,598
- But what is time to someone like Raban?
- Ah.

495
00:37:02,681 --> 00:37:04,850
They just have to get their hands
on Captain Virgil's

496
00:37:04,933 --> 00:37:06,852
- temporal compass and…
- Temporal compass!

497
00:37:07,686 --> 00:37:09,563
- Wow.
- I thought about Lucasia

498
00:37:09,646 --> 00:37:11,398
using the compass for… [stammers]

499
00:37:11,481 --> 00:37:13,317
…something, for the life of me
I can't remember what,

500
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,236
but it just…
it makes more sense for Raban.

501
00:37:16,862 --> 00:37:19,406
[stammers] Uh, yeah.

502
00:37:19,907 --> 00:37:21,074
[sighs]

503
00:37:22,075 --> 00:37:24,161
S… So, you like it so far?

504
00:37:26,246 --> 00:37:27,247
Carol.

505
00:37:27,915 --> 00:37:28,916
We…

506
00:37:31,335 --> 00:37:32,419
I love it.

507
00:37:35,255 --> 00:37:36,256
[chuckles]

508
00:37:38,842 --> 00:37:40,302
[radio host] Joe Pass on guitar.

509
00:37:40,385 --> 00:37:42,804
Ray Brown holding it down on bass.

510
00:37:42,888 --> 00:37:45,057
Mickey Roker on that blazing snare,

511
00:37:45,140 --> 00:37:49,144
and of course, the incomparable
Dizzy Gillespie on trumpet.

512
00:37:49,228 --> 00:37:50,521
And now here's a real treat.

513
00:37:50,604 --> 00:37:56,235
Miles Davis "All of You" on KHNM, 92.4 FM.

514
00:37:56,318 --> 00:37:58,320
[jazz music playing on radio]

515
00:38:01,740 --> 00:38:05,577
[clicks tongue] I hope you're making
enough for both of us.

516
00:38:05,661 --> 00:38:07,663
- [faucet stops]
- You're eating too.

517
00:38:07,746 --> 00:38:08,747
Mm-hmm.

518
00:38:12,251 --> 00:38:14,294
[Carol] You like omelets, right?

519
00:38:15,212 --> 00:38:16,213
We do.

520
00:38:16,296 --> 00:38:18,465
We love all breakfast food.

521
00:38:18,549 --> 00:38:20,801
[chuckles] Sure. Sure.

522
00:38:20,884 --> 00:38:23,720
But you… you.

523
00:38:23,804 --> 00:38:24,972
Like lowercase "you"…

524
00:38:25,055 --> 00:38:27,766
Does Zosia like omelets?

525
00:38:28,559 --> 00:38:30,227
Zosia likes…

526
00:38:30,894 --> 00:38:33,397
I like omelets.

527
00:38:34,648 --> 00:38:36,733
Never had many chances to try them.

528
00:38:36,817 --> 00:38:37,818
[Carol] Hmm.

529
00:38:39,570 --> 00:38:42,656
What is your favorite food?

530
00:38:44,199 --> 00:38:45,200
[whisking stops]

531
00:38:51,164 --> 00:38:52,332
Mango ice cream.

532
00:38:54,084 --> 00:38:56,378
I love mango ice cream.

533
00:38:56,461 --> 00:38:57,838
[chuckles]

534
00:38:57,921 --> 00:39:02,134
There was an old man in my neighborhood
who sold it out of a little cart.

535
00:39:04,052 --> 00:39:08,557
I would watch the ships leaving
Gdańsk.

536
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,059
Brand new. First voyage.

537
00:39:11,143 --> 00:39:13,979
I was maybe… ten years old?

538
00:39:14,813 --> 00:39:17,983
And I was fascinated by these giant ships.

539
00:39:18,567 --> 00:39:19,651
Who built them?

540
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:21,486
What for?

541
00:39:22,237 --> 00:39:23,530
Where were they going?

542
00:39:25,908 --> 00:39:26,992
And now I know.

543
00:39:28,619 --> 00:39:30,871
[inhales sharply] Sometimes,
the man with the cart

544
00:39:30,954 --> 00:39:34,958
would hand out ice cream bars to us
when he had too many to sell.

545
00:39:35,834 --> 00:39:38,545
He knew we didn't have
two coins to rub together.

546
00:39:38,629 --> 00:39:40,839
It was just after
the country had opened up,

547
00:39:40,923 --> 00:39:43,550
and suddenly he had new flavors.

548
00:39:43,634 --> 00:39:45,636
Mint, coffee, peach.

549
00:39:46,595 --> 00:39:50,015
But… [chuckles] …mango,

550
00:39:51,016 --> 00:39:53,018
that was my favorite.

551
00:39:54,311 --> 00:39:55,354
[chuckles]

552
00:39:57,856 --> 00:39:59,274
[both chuckle softly]

553
00:40:01,401 --> 00:40:02,945
Thank you for sharing that.

554
00:40:06,281 --> 00:40:08,784
[unsettling music playing]

555
00:40:12,287 --> 00:40:13,413
Zosia?

556
00:40:14,331 --> 00:40:15,332
[inhales sharply]

557
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,585
You're going to have a visitor.

558
00:40:22,506 --> 00:40:24,508
- [music continues]
- [crickets chirping]

559
00:40:32,432 --> 00:40:34,434
[liquid fizzing]

560
00:40:36,270 --> 00:40:37,312
[groans] Okay.

561
00:40:37,396 --> 00:40:38,856
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

562
00:40:41,817 --> 00:40:42,818
[grunts]

563
00:40:46,822 --> 00:40:48,824
[grunting]

564
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,882
[music continues]

565
00:41:06,175 --> 00:41:07,301
[sighs]

566
00:41:13,390 --> 00:41:14,558
[engine starts]

567
00:41:24,818 --> 00:41:26,570
[music ends]
