1
00:01:29,189 --> 00:01:31,124
Sorry. Excuse me.

2
00:01:36,798 --> 00:01:39,099
Excuse me. Sorry about that.

3
00:01:39,867 --> 00:01:42,135
-Oh. Sorry.
-Yeah.

4
00:01:42,169 --> 00:01:44,806
No. That's my...

5
00:01:44,839 --> 00:01:48,241
Hey, guys, I'm just gonna
squeeze past you here. Sorry.

6
00:02:11,532 --> 00:02:12,734
Hi.

7
00:02:22,543 --> 00:02:23,745
Hmm.

8
00:02:32,553 --> 00:02:34,221
Hi.

9
00:02:36,824 --> 00:02:37,925
Is that yarn?

10
00:02:37,959 --> 00:02:39,794
Yes. Yeah.

11
00:02:39,827 --> 00:02:42,229
Huh.

12
00:02:46,433 --> 00:02:49,269
-Is it... is it yarn?
-It's y-- Yeah.

13
00:02:49,302 --> 00:02:50,805
It's-it's yarn.

14
00:03:12,392 --> 00:03:14,762
Thank you so much for coming.

15
00:03:17,999 --> 00:03:20,501
-Slow night.
-Yeah.

16
00:03:21,869 --> 00:03:24,438
You know, I-I don't really need
anyone to buy my art.

17
00:03:24,471 --> 00:03:27,374
It would just be nice
if someone understood it.

18
00:03:27,407 --> 00:03:29,544
May I offer you
another perspective?

19
00:03:29,577 --> 00:03:30,277
Sure.

20
00:03:30,310 --> 00:03:32,279
I do need people
to buy your art.

21
00:03:32,312 --> 00:03:34,782
-I'm sorry.
-There's one collector left.

22
00:03:34,816 --> 00:03:37,185
Go talk to him.

23
00:03:38,619 --> 00:03:41,856
You know,
maybe my work is stronger

24
00:03:41,889 --> 00:03:43,323
if I let it speak for itself...

25
00:03:43,356 --> 00:03:45,225
-Go!
-Sure thing.

26
00:03:49,997 --> 00:03:51,866
Uh, excuse me.

27
00:03:51,899 --> 00:03:54,502
-Oh, thank you.
-Hi.

28
00:03:55,737 --> 00:03:57,337
Actually, no.

29
00:03:57,370 --> 00:03:59,574
S-Sorry, I'm not the...

30
00:04:07,648 --> 00:04:08,783
Aren.

31
00:04:09,884 --> 00:04:12,887
Does the last collector here
think you're a waiter?

32
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,555
Okay.

33
00:04:14,589 --> 00:04:16,657
I'm canceling
your solo show next month.

34
00:04:16,691 --> 00:04:19,861
No, no.
I already bought the materials.

35
00:04:19,894 --> 00:04:22,329
I...

36
00:04:22,362 --> 00:04:24,498
I spent $3,000 on yarn.

37
00:04:24,532 --> 00:04:27,001
That may be, but if you
can't stick up for your work,

38
00:04:27,034 --> 00:04:29,302
I can't do it for you.

39
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:54,849
Can you, can you help me?

40
00:06:57,818 --> 00:07:01,622
The machine's being a dick.

41
00:07:02,489 --> 00:07:04,759
Um...

42
00:07:04,792 --> 00:07:06,493
Yeah, okay. Sure.

43
00:07:06,527 --> 00:07:08,796
-What do you need?
-Can you get cash for me?

44
00:07:08,829 --> 00:07:12,066
-My PIN is 310... -No, no,
you shouldn't tell me your PIN.

45
00:07:12,099 --> 00:07:16,137
...555-0164.

46
00:07:17,071 --> 00:07:19,674
Actually, I think
that might be a phone number.

47
00:07:20,841 --> 00:07:22,910
Hold on.

48
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,682
Uh...

49
00:07:30,084 --> 00:07:31,585
Where... Where's my card?

50
00:07:31,619 --> 00:07:32,987
It's in the machine.

51
00:07:33,020 --> 00:07:34,889
Oh, my God. Where's my...

52
00:07:34,922 --> 00:07:36,857
Brad?

53
00:07:37,792 --> 00:07:39,794
Someone stole my debit card.

54
00:07:39,827 --> 00:07:41,696
It's-it's still in the AT...

55
00:07:41,729 --> 00:07:43,998
-Help!
-No, no, no, no!

56
00:07:44,031 --> 00:07:45,599
-Dude, dude! No, no, no.
-Whoa.

57
00:07:45,633 --> 00:07:48,636
-No. -Dude, dude! You have
headshots in the morning.

58
00:07:48,669 --> 00:07:50,604
He just stole her purse, man!

59
00:07:55,743 --> 00:07:59,046
Look, she's got her purse.

60
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,783
But it was right there.

61
00:08:05,119 --> 00:08:09,023
I'm sorry to bother y'all,
but...

62
00:08:09,056 --> 00:08:10,791
did one of y'all
lose an earring?

63
00:08:10,825 --> 00:08:13,127
Oh, my God, yes!

64
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,863
I saw it on my way over
to meet my friend here.

65
00:08:15,896 --> 00:08:17,999
And let me just say,
I know it ain't his.

66
00:08:18,032 --> 00:08:19,867
Oh, my God, thank you.

67
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:23,738
I would've been wearing one
earring like a freakin' pirate.

68
00:08:27,742 --> 00:08:30,011
By any chance, are you all
going to get some food?

69
00:08:30,044 --> 00:08:31,645
Yeah.

70
00:08:31,679 --> 00:08:34,015
There's a barbecue spot
that just opened on La Brea.

71
00:08:34,048 --> 00:08:35,282
My cousin runs it.

72
00:08:35,316 --> 00:08:37,585
They got a killer review
in the <i>LA Weekly.</i>

73
00:08:37,618 --> 00:08:39,120
I don't know anything
about that.

74
00:08:39,153 --> 00:08:44,125
All I know is they pull pork
just like my grandma used to.

75
00:08:45,126 --> 00:08:46,594
I love pork.

76
00:08:46,627 --> 00:08:48,129
You tell them Roger sent you,

77
00:08:48,162 --> 00:08:50,798
-and they'll bring out
the good stuff. -Thanks, man.

78
00:08:52,033 --> 00:08:54,335
Hey, uh...

79
00:08:54,368 --> 00:08:56,303
no hard feelings, man.

80
00:08:56,337 --> 00:08:58,706
Yeah, no. Yeah.

81
00:09:09,717 --> 00:09:11,185
You good?

82
00:09:11,218 --> 00:09:16,590
Yeah, I c-- I could've sworn
that I had her bag.

83
00:09:16,624 --> 00:09:18,826
Let's get off the street.

84
00:09:20,127 --> 00:09:22,329
You know, these white
folks looking at you crazy,

85
00:09:22,363 --> 00:09:24,932
-that doesn't bother you?
-It's no big deal.

86
00:09:24,965 --> 00:09:27,935
-It's a goddamn menace.
-It's-it's annoying.

87
00:09:27,968 --> 00:09:30,271
People looking at me
like I'm...

88
00:09:30,304 --> 00:09:32,006
whatever exactly
they think that I am.

89
00:09:32,039 --> 00:09:34,742
But, you know, it-it's not like
it happens every day.

90
00:09:34,775 --> 00:09:36,177
So you saying
people don't look at you

91
00:09:36,210 --> 00:09:37,711
like that every day?

92
00:09:37,745 --> 00:09:39,647
Well, that happens every day,

93
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:41,615
you know,
if I go outside or whatever,

94
00:09:41,649 --> 00:09:43,117
but it doesn't escalate
every day

95
00:09:43,150 --> 00:09:45,086
is what I-- is what I'm saying.

96
00:09:45,119 --> 00:09:46,654
Is that so?

97
00:09:46,687 --> 00:09:48,089
I'm not living in fear.

98
00:09:48,122 --> 00:09:50,925
I mean, is there fear?

99
00:09:50,958 --> 00:09:52,259
Yeah.

100
00:09:52,293 --> 00:09:54,695
Am I living in it?

101
00:09:57,665 --> 00:09:59,900
-No?
-What?

102
00:09:59,934 --> 00:10:02,670
You were just explaining
how none of this affects you.

103
00:10:02,703 --> 00:10:05,840
I just, uh...

104
00:10:05,873 --> 00:10:08,642
try not to think about it,
I guess.

105
00:10:13,914 --> 00:10:16,250
Look, I don't want
to waste your time, Aren,

106
00:10:16,283 --> 00:10:17,818
but I saw you at the gallery.

107
00:10:17,852 --> 00:10:20,221
Right, yeah.
You were at the bar.

108
00:10:20,254 --> 00:10:22,957
And I followed you because
I think you're very talented.

109
00:10:22,990 --> 00:10:25,860
-My work?
-Uh, you mean the yarn thing?

110
00:10:25,893 --> 00:10:27,361
No, that didn't make
no kind of sense.

111
00:10:27,394 --> 00:10:28,996
But you?

112
00:10:29,029 --> 00:10:32,733
You I get, and I want
to take you to a job interview.

113
00:10:32,766 --> 00:10:34,835
Oh, no, I don't know anything
about bartending.

114
00:10:34,869 --> 00:10:36,837
Second job.
You need money, right?

115
00:10:36,871 --> 00:10:39,440
I need the yarn store to change
its return policy.

116
00:10:39,473 --> 00:10:41,275
-Can it do that?
-Yeah.

117
00:10:41,308 --> 00:10:43,911
-What?
-I mean, it pays good.

118
00:10:44,812 --> 00:10:46,147
What is it exactly?

119
00:10:46,180 --> 00:10:48,716
Officially,
it's a client services firm,

120
00:10:48,749 --> 00:10:53,020
but unofficially,
we saving the damn world.

121
00:10:55,189 --> 00:10:56,690
I don't really understand.

122
00:10:56,724 --> 00:10:57,791
It's easier to show you.

123
00:10:57,825 --> 00:10:59,026
-Here.
-Now?

124
00:10:59,059 --> 00:10:59,960
Yeah.

125
00:10:59,994 --> 00:11:02,329
-Okay. -You got
any medical conditions?

126
00:11:02,363 --> 00:11:04,431
-Heart disease? Eczema?
-What?

127
00:11:04,465 --> 00:11:06,100
N-No. Why would that...

128
00:11:10,371 --> 00:11:12,173
What? Hmm?

129
00:11:12,206 --> 00:11:14,008
-This way.
-Where are we?

130
00:11:15,142 --> 00:11:17,044
D-Did I just black out?

131
00:11:17,077 --> 00:11:18,445
I moved us a little.

132
00:11:18,479 --> 00:11:19,813
You moved-- What?

133
00:11:19,847 --> 00:11:21,482
Hey, yo, wait, wait.

134
00:11:21,516 --> 00:11:23,450
Hey, Roger.

135
00:11:29,123 --> 00:11:31,091
How y'all doing?

136
00:11:54,148 --> 00:11:55,382
The hell is going on?!

137
00:11:55,416 --> 00:11:58,252
Now, I'm probably supposed to
start slower with all of this,

138
00:11:58,285 --> 00:12:01,523
but there's a recruiting class
starting right now,

139
00:12:01,556 --> 00:12:03,891
and we got to get you in it.

140
00:12:03,924 --> 00:12:05,359
Recruiting for what?

141
00:12:07,461 --> 00:12:09,531
Welcome...

142
00:12:09,564 --> 00:12:13,901
to the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

143
00:12:13,934 --> 00:12:16,937
Over the next few days,
we'll introduce you to our work

144
00:12:16,971 --> 00:12:20,975
and determine if any of you
are fit for membership.

145
00:12:21,008 --> 00:12:25,779
Now, since every education
starts with the classics,

146
00:12:25,813 --> 00:12:27,114
let's take a look at

147
00:12:27,147 --> 00:12:30,384
some of our most accomplished
predecessors.

148
00:12:30,417 --> 00:12:35,356
James Crampton, Savannah, 1923.

149
00:12:37,925 --> 00:12:40,528
Watch his approach to the work.

150
00:12:56,443 --> 00:12:59,079
Well, that's
a peculiar shot, suh.

151
00:13:01,415 --> 00:13:02,850
Where'd you come from?

152
00:13:02,883 --> 00:13:04,985
Oh, I was just
passing through, suh.

153
00:13:05,019 --> 00:13:08,956
Or should I say Mr. Avery?

154
00:13:08,989 --> 00:13:10,424
Hey.

155
00:13:10,457 --> 00:13:12,493
How'd you know my name?

156
00:13:12,527 --> 00:13:14,128
Well...

157
00:13:14,161 --> 00:13:16,964
everybody in the state
of Georgia who like billiards

158
00:13:16,997 --> 00:13:18,932
knows Beauregard Avery.

159
00:13:18,966 --> 00:13:23,871
Is it true that you once
snapped your cue on the break

160
00:13:23,904 --> 00:13:27,074
then ran the table
with one of the splinters?

161
00:13:27,107 --> 00:13:30,344
I haven't played
since... the war.

162
00:13:31,945 --> 00:13:33,981
You done lost your stroke.

163
00:13:34,014 --> 00:13:36,584
-Excuse me?
-Uh, billiard stroke, suh.

164
00:13:36,618 --> 00:13:41,455
You know, they say
a man's grip on his cue...

165
00:13:41,488 --> 00:13:43,891
is like his grip on life.

166
00:13:45,125 --> 00:13:47,328
Let me see how you holding it.

167
00:13:51,298 --> 00:13:55,369
Now, see, you thinking 'bout
whether you gon' miss.

168
00:13:56,904 --> 00:14:00,040
Maybe you missed a little bit
in your life.

169
00:14:01,175 --> 00:14:04,478
But you can't
think on that now.

170
00:14:04,512 --> 00:14:09,283
Now you gots to just
close your eyes

171
00:14:09,316 --> 00:14:11,385
and get your stroke back.

172
00:14:18,425 --> 00:14:21,095
Not bad, Mr. Avery.

173
00:14:21,128 --> 00:14:22,363
Not bad.

174
00:14:22,396 --> 00:14:26,200
Now, obviously, you'll be using
a more contemporary dialect

175
00:14:26,233 --> 00:14:29,671
and a lot of other innovations
we've made since Jim's time.

176
00:14:29,704 --> 00:14:33,474
But he was a master
of the fundamentals.

177
00:14:33,508 --> 00:14:38,011
So, what did you notice about
Jim's approach to the work?

178
00:14:38,045 --> 00:14:41,014
He doesn't make it
about himself.

179
00:14:41,048 --> 00:14:42,817
It's always about the client.

180
00:14:46,688 --> 00:14:49,123
Client service first.

181
00:14:49,156 --> 00:14:50,023
What else?

182
00:14:50,057 --> 00:14:52,226
He's really friendly.

183
00:14:52,259 --> 00:14:54,161
That's crucial.

184
00:14:57,164 --> 00:15:00,067
-Anything else?
-He's wearing suspenders.

185
00:15:03,103 --> 00:15:06,641
Okay. Let's take a look
at another one.

186
00:15:06,674 --> 00:15:11,945
Marcus Dunham, 1955.

187
00:15:13,180 --> 00:15:16,016
Dead man walking!

188
00:15:16,049 --> 00:15:18,018
This isn't right, Marcus.

189
00:15:18,051 --> 00:15:21,188
Well, boss, it ain't about
the life leaving this world.

190
00:15:21,221 --> 00:15:23,591
It's about the life
coming into it.

191
00:15:23,625 --> 00:15:25,159
What do you mean?

192
00:15:25,192 --> 00:15:26,561
I know that you and the missus

193
00:15:26,594 --> 00:15:29,096
been having trouble
making life.

194
00:15:29,129 --> 00:15:31,098
I'm just barely scraping by
in this job,

195
00:15:31,131 --> 00:15:33,967
so it's hard to go home
and feel like a man.

196
00:15:34,001 --> 00:15:35,670
Now, you listen here, boss.

197
00:15:35,703 --> 00:15:37,104
Who snuck me that harmonica

198
00:15:37,137 --> 00:15:39,039
so I could speak my soul
fore I go?

199
00:15:39,072 --> 00:15:41,008
-I did, but...
-That took courage.

200
00:15:41,041 --> 00:15:42,342
That was done by a man.

201
00:15:42,376 --> 00:15:44,978
So when Mrs. Bossman
look at you tonight,

202
00:15:45,012 --> 00:15:46,146
know that she looking at

203
00:15:46,180 --> 00:15:48,583
the greatest man
in Kennebec County.

204
00:16:12,306 --> 00:16:14,274
What about this one?

205
00:16:17,411 --> 00:16:18,513
Anybody else?

206
00:16:18,546 --> 00:16:20,515
The spiritual was a nice touch.

207
00:16:20,548 --> 00:16:22,216
Perceived authenticity.

208
00:16:22,249 --> 00:16:26,253
Your interests and hobbies
have to be authentically Black

209
00:16:26,286 --> 00:16:28,388
as understood by the culture.

210
00:16:28,422 --> 00:16:32,694
We're showing the client
the parts of ourselves

211
00:16:32,727 --> 00:16:35,295
that make them feel good.

212
00:16:37,130 --> 00:16:38,999
And nothing more.

213
00:16:46,541 --> 00:16:49,476
Nope! Nope!

214
00:16:51,813 --> 00:16:53,548
Mm-mm.

215
00:17:10,430 --> 00:17:11,833
No, I'm sorry.

216
00:17:11,866 --> 00:17:14,134
You can't conjure yourself
a steak dinner.

217
00:17:14,167 --> 00:17:16,403
Magic only works
in the service of clients.

218
00:17:16,436 --> 00:17:17,839
So if he's dieting,
you're dieting.

219
00:17:17,872 --> 00:17:19,574
Mm-hmm. Uh, right.

220
00:17:19,607 --> 00:17:21,809
If she knows that much, you'll
have to do a memory spell.

221
00:17:21,843 --> 00:17:23,277
Mind if I take control

222
00:17:23,310 --> 00:17:24,411
of your powers remotely?

223
00:17:24,444 --> 00:17:27,147
Anything medical
requires physical touch.

224
00:17:27,180 --> 00:17:29,283
Even if he's sweaty, yes.

225
00:17:29,316 --> 00:17:32,252
No, that's me
controlling your powers.

226
00:17:33,387 --> 00:17:35,222
-This is nice. Yeah.
-I like it.

227
00:17:35,255 --> 00:17:37,324
-Not too tight?
-Not too tight, no.

228
00:17:37,357 --> 00:17:38,826
Cause it's got to be nostalgic,

229
00:17:38,860 --> 00:17:40,294
but it can't be
too sharecropper.

230
00:17:40,327 --> 00:17:41,863
Oh, no, of course not.

231
00:17:41,896 --> 00:17:44,164
We're not doing <i>Roots.</i>

232
00:17:49,369 --> 00:17:51,606
♪ Like a vice grip
on my heart... ♪

233
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,341
How goes?

234
00:17:55,208 --> 00:17:57,879
It's...
it's really interesting.

235
00:17:57,912 --> 00:17:59,346
It's, um--

236
00:17:59,379 --> 00:18:02,149
You know, the name needs
a little updating,

237
00:18:02,182 --> 00:18:04,652
maybe like
"Magical Black People" or--

238
00:18:04,686 --> 00:18:06,588
I guess that doesn't have
the same ring, but, uh...

239
00:18:06,621 --> 00:18:08,355
What are you trying to say?

240
00:18:09,624 --> 00:18:12,594
I'm not sure this is for me.

241
00:18:17,364 --> 00:18:19,333
It really has
nothing to do with you,

242
00:18:19,366 --> 00:18:22,302
and-and I'm sure the work makes
a ton of sense for you guys.

243
00:18:22,336 --> 00:18:25,138
It just seems, you know,
for my personal taste...

244
00:18:25,172 --> 00:18:27,508
It's a little, um...

245
00:18:27,542 --> 00:18:30,377
-Please take me home.
-You ain't going home.

246
00:18:35,950 --> 00:18:38,218
Holy shit.

247
00:18:41,656 --> 00:18:43,190
It's bigger than you.

248
00:18:43,223 --> 00:18:45,593
We've been around
since before this was...

249
00:18:45,627 --> 00:18:46,661
Is this...?

250
00:18:48,428 --> 00:18:49,496
Monticello.

251
00:18:49,530 --> 00:18:50,932
-What?
-Yeah.

252
00:18:50,965 --> 00:18:52,265
Secret wing.

253
00:18:52,299 --> 00:18:54,201
Oh, okay.

254
00:18:54,234 --> 00:18:57,270
-The truth is, Aren...
-I'm in Virginia?

255
00:18:57,304 --> 00:18:59,406
...you've got talent.

256
00:19:00,407 --> 00:19:02,677
Sorry, the building is gone.

257
00:19:02,710 --> 00:19:03,678
Yeah.

258
00:19:03,711 --> 00:19:05,345
And talent like yours

259
00:19:05,379 --> 00:19:07,414
can do more to help Black
people than a hundred marches.

260
00:19:07,447 --> 00:19:09,349
How?

261
00:19:10,685 --> 00:19:12,219
It's easier if I show you.

262
00:19:12,252 --> 00:19:14,622
No, no, no.
Last time you said that...

263
00:19:17,391 --> 00:19:22,764
Aren, what's the most dangerous
animal on the planet?

264
00:19:22,797 --> 00:19:24,331
-Sharks.
-White people.

265
00:19:24,364 --> 00:19:26,233
When are white people
most dangerous?

266
00:19:26,266 --> 00:19:28,670
When they're teamed up
with sharks.

267
00:19:28,703 --> 00:19:29,871
When they feel uncomfortable.

268
00:19:29,904 --> 00:19:31,271
Okay, were sharks
a part of it or...

269
00:19:31,304 --> 00:19:32,540
White people
feeling uncomfortable

270
00:19:32,573 --> 00:19:34,509
precedes a lot
of bad stuff for us.

271
00:19:34,542 --> 00:19:36,443
White people move into
a neighborhood,

272
00:19:36,476 --> 00:19:38,980
they feel uncomfortable:
gentrification.

273
00:19:39,013 --> 00:19:41,448
-Okay.
-White cop sees a Black man,

274
00:19:41,481 --> 00:19:43,350
feels uncomfortable:
another shooting.

275
00:19:43,383 --> 00:19:45,820
Was a time when all you had
to do was look at a white man

276
00:19:45,853 --> 00:19:47,220
and make him uncomfortable.

277
00:19:47,254 --> 00:19:48,422
That was pretty much it
for you.

278
00:19:48,455 --> 00:19:49,824
Yeah, I get that.
I'm just not the...

279
00:19:49,857 --> 00:19:53,928
For some of us, the last thing
we see in this world

280
00:19:53,961 --> 00:19:55,963
is an uncomfortable white man.

281
00:19:55,997 --> 00:19:57,832
But I don't blame
white people for that.

282
00:19:57,865 --> 00:20:00,568
I blame their discomfort.

283
00:20:00,601 --> 00:20:01,536
That's why we here

284
00:20:01,569 --> 00:20:04,505
at the American Society
of Magical Negroes

285
00:20:04,539 --> 00:20:08,442
fight white discomfort
every damn day.

286
00:20:08,475 --> 00:20:12,013
We are the vanguard
of white relaxation.

287
00:20:12,046 --> 00:20:13,581
Black knights making sure

288
00:20:13,614 --> 00:20:15,683
that they don't take it out
on a brother.

289
00:20:15,717 --> 00:20:19,453
Because the happier they are,
the safer we are.

290
00:20:21,522 --> 00:20:22,523
Wow.

291
00:20:25,793 --> 00:20:27,829
You see that cop over there?

292
00:20:27,862 --> 00:20:29,396
Far as we know, he may be

293
00:20:29,429 --> 00:20:31,498
the next one to shoot
an unarmed Black man.

294
00:20:31,532 --> 00:20:33,768
-Him?
-I didn't bring you here

295
00:20:33,801 --> 00:20:36,003
for sharks, Aren.

296
00:20:36,037 --> 00:20:38,305
I brought you here for this.

297
00:20:38,338 --> 00:20:39,874
<i>We are constantly monitoring</i>

298
00:20:39,907 --> 00:20:43,611
<i>the happiness of every</i>
<i>white person in America.</i>

299
00:20:43,644 --> 00:20:46,881
And when one gets
too unhappy...

300
00:20:47,849 --> 00:20:49,984
...they become a client.

301
00:20:50,017 --> 00:20:51,652
Excuse me, Officer?

302
00:20:51,686 --> 00:20:55,723
<i>But they won't know</i>
<i>they're a client.</i>

303
00:20:55,757 --> 00:20:57,024
<i>So you'll use</i>

304
00:20:57,058 --> 00:20:58,693
<i>a white tears meter</i>

305
00:20:58,726 --> 00:21:00,895
<i>to get a reading</i>
<i>of their distress levels.</i>

306
00:21:00,928 --> 00:21:03,064
<i>And it will also let you know</i>

307
00:21:03,097 --> 00:21:04,599
<i>when their distress</i>

308
00:21:04,632 --> 00:21:08,069
has returned to acceptable
white person levels.

309
00:21:09,670 --> 00:21:11,739
Man, I looked in the mirror
this morning,

310
00:21:11,773 --> 00:21:13,473
I swear to God,

311
00:21:13,508 --> 00:21:16,677
I look more like my father
than I look like myself.

312
00:21:18,445 --> 00:21:21,448
Well, it's like my grandmama
always used to tell me.

313
00:21:21,481 --> 00:21:24,417
There's only two fighters
you can't beat:

314
00:21:24,451 --> 00:21:26,087
Joe Louis and Father Time.

315
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:27,922
I just want to know
I still have it.

316
00:21:27,955 --> 00:21:29,724
You know?

317
00:21:31,592 --> 00:21:33,895
We're thinking about
going to a club tonight.

318
00:21:35,663 --> 00:21:37,665
Like...

319
00:21:37,698 --> 00:21:39,767
from music videos?

320
00:21:39,801 --> 00:21:41,936
Really exclusive.

321
00:21:41,969 --> 00:21:44,071
He and I can get in.

322
00:21:44,105 --> 00:21:46,607
I mean, if you can...

323
00:21:46,641 --> 00:21:49,476
maybe you're not
as far gone as you think.

324
00:21:54,816 --> 00:21:56,584
I want to do that.

325
00:22:02,156 --> 00:22:03,825
Look, Aren,

326
00:22:03,858 --> 00:22:05,760
this is a one-night job.

327
00:22:05,793 --> 00:22:10,064
Nice, easy client like we use
in trainings or on holiday.

328
00:22:10,097 --> 00:22:11,464
But don't let that fool you.

329
00:22:11,498 --> 00:22:13,067
Black lives are depending
on this.

330
00:22:13,100 --> 00:22:15,536
Look, Roger, for me,
I don't think

331
00:22:15,570 --> 00:22:17,972
that keeping white people happy
is as big a deal

332
00:22:18,005 --> 00:22:19,439
-as you're saying it is.
-Oh, yeah?

333
00:22:19,472 --> 00:22:21,676
Why are you so nice?

334
00:22:23,010 --> 00:22:24,979
Because I'm friendly.

335
00:22:25,012 --> 00:22:26,080
Because white people
will kill you.

336
00:22:26,113 --> 00:22:27,582
Okay.

337
00:22:27,615 --> 00:22:29,784
And I think you recognize this
in some way,

338
00:22:29,817 --> 00:22:31,719
and now you're trying
to get out in front of it.

339
00:22:31,752 --> 00:22:35,122
Roger, if I were hyperaware
of white people, I would know.

340
00:22:35,156 --> 00:22:36,757
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.

341
00:22:36,791 --> 00:22:38,491
Do you remember that white guy
that just passed us?

342
00:22:38,526 --> 00:22:40,928
-Yeah.
-You're blocking his way.

343
00:22:40,962 --> 00:22:42,630
I'm so sorry. I...

344
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:50,137
-That's not nice.
-Let's try a little experiment.

345
00:22:50,171 --> 00:22:52,907
I want you to walk
in that crowd.

346
00:22:52,940 --> 00:22:54,141
Why?

347
00:22:54,175 --> 00:22:55,543
Well, it shouldn't be
a big deal to you

348
00:22:55,576 --> 00:22:56,911
since you so good
with white people.

349
00:22:56,944 --> 00:22:59,479
My mom's white.
I grew up with white people.

350
00:22:59,513 --> 00:23:01,616
And I'm sure that didn't
mess you up at all.

351
00:23:01,649 --> 00:23:03,651
So, I don't need to go.

352
00:23:03,684 --> 00:23:05,019
You scared?

353
00:23:05,052 --> 00:23:06,821
-No.
-Then go.

354
00:23:06,854 --> 00:23:09,456
I-I don't want to go.

355
00:23:09,489 --> 00:23:11,025
-You're scared.
-Okay, you know, fine.

356
00:23:11,058 --> 00:23:12,059
I'll go.

357
00:23:12,093 --> 00:23:13,661
For you.

358
00:23:13,694 --> 00:23:15,395
Thank you.

359
00:23:53,234 --> 00:23:56,504
I know you can feel
their discomfort, Aren.

360
00:23:58,105 --> 00:24:02,475
It's the loudest thing
in every room you walk into.

361
00:24:03,110 --> 00:24:05,212
Probably has been
your whole life.

362
00:24:06,113 --> 00:24:10,251
What did you do to make them
look at you that way?

363
00:24:10,284 --> 00:24:13,654
And what are they going to do
to you next?

364
00:24:14,689 --> 00:24:16,857
White discomfort
is your nemesis, Aren.

365
00:24:16,891 --> 00:24:20,493
Stop running from it
and start listening to it.

366
00:24:21,128 --> 00:24:22,263
Hey, hey.

367
00:24:23,864 --> 00:24:25,599
What's up, fellas?

368
00:24:26,901 --> 00:24:28,169
Oh, man.

369
00:24:28,202 --> 00:24:30,504
This place looks awesome.

370
00:24:30,538 --> 00:24:32,039
There's no way I'm getting in.

371
00:24:32,073 --> 00:24:33,607
Have you seen me?

372
00:24:34,742 --> 00:24:36,677
-Give it a shot.
-It's not happening.

373
00:24:36,711 --> 00:24:39,180
It was stupid
to even come here.

374
00:24:39,213 --> 00:24:41,082
Ah! Stupid.

375
00:24:41,115 --> 00:24:43,117
What was I thinking?

376
00:24:43,150 --> 00:24:44,652
God, this is the outfit
that I pick.

377
00:24:44,685 --> 00:24:45,920
I'm like,
"Oh, I'm gonna go to the club.

378
00:24:45,953 --> 00:24:47,788
Let's get my club outfit
out of the closet."

379
00:24:47,822 --> 00:24:49,857
-I bought new shoes...
-Don't look at me, Aren.

380
00:24:49,890 --> 00:24:52,093
Look at him.

381
00:24:52,126 --> 00:24:54,261
Only him.

382
00:24:54,295 --> 00:24:57,298
Put everything out of your mind

383
00:24:57,331 --> 00:25:03,771
and focus on
his pale-ass feelings.

384
00:25:04,672 --> 00:25:06,974
<i>As a member of the Society,</i>

385
00:25:07,008 --> 00:25:09,877
there's no more making sure
your hands are visible

386
00:25:09,910 --> 00:25:10,978
just in case

387
00:25:11,012 --> 00:25:13,547
or wondering if they're gonna
call the cops on you

388
00:25:13,581 --> 00:25:16,017
for doing
totally normal things.

389
00:25:16,050 --> 00:25:17,885
Now you'll know.

390
00:25:17,918 --> 00:25:21,756
You'll know exactly
how distressed they are

391
00:25:21,789 --> 00:25:23,891
and how to soothe them,

392
00:25:23,924 --> 00:25:27,128
<i>so you won't have to be afraid.</i>

393
00:25:33,968 --> 00:25:35,736
I see him.

394
00:25:35,770 --> 00:25:38,239
Then go and comfort him.

395
00:25:40,307 --> 00:25:42,143
They call me
a pencil-pushing nerd.

396
00:25:42,176 --> 00:25:43,644
Hey.

397
00:25:43,677 --> 00:25:45,312
Rules are important.

398
00:25:45,346 --> 00:25:46,747
Listen.

399
00:25:47,915 --> 00:25:50,718
Doesn't matter
how they look at you.

400
00:25:50,751 --> 00:25:52,953
It matters how you look at you.

401
00:25:57,024 --> 00:25:58,559
Yeah.

402
00:25:59,326 --> 00:26:00,828
You're right.

403
00:26:09,703 --> 00:26:12,239
Hey. Can we get in?

404
00:26:21,982 --> 00:26:23,751
Actually, yeah.

405
00:26:24,718 --> 00:26:26,120
Yes.

406
00:26:27,121 --> 00:26:30,091
Guys, thank you.

407
00:26:30,124 --> 00:26:31,992
Now, let's do this.

408
00:26:35,129 --> 00:26:36,697
What did I just do?

409
00:26:36,730 --> 00:26:39,700
You made your world
a safer place.

410
00:26:39,733 --> 00:26:42,603
-I want to do that again.
-It's your job.

411
00:26:58,953 --> 00:27:01,055
Ladies and gentlemen,

412
00:27:01,088 --> 00:27:05,392
the president of the American
Society of Magical Negroes,

413
00:27:05,426 --> 00:27:07,027
Dede Booker.

414
00:27:35,322 --> 00:27:39,693
Do we seem like gods
to you, Aren?

415
00:27:40,327 --> 00:27:41,896
Uh...

416
00:27:41,929 --> 00:27:44,231
Flattering but untruthful.

417
00:27:44,265 --> 00:27:47,768
In reality, we are only
as mighty as we are united.

418
00:27:47,801 --> 00:27:52,039
You see, Aren,
our powers are collective.

419
00:27:52,072 --> 00:27:54,775
If any member
uses magic selfishly,

420
00:27:54,808 --> 00:27:57,011
fails to put
their client first,

421
00:27:57,044 --> 00:28:00,981
all our powers fail,
and we cannot fail.

422
00:28:01,949 --> 00:28:04,351
Every year of our existence,

423
00:28:04,385 --> 00:28:08,055
the life expectancy
of Black Americans has risen,

424
00:28:08,088 --> 00:28:11,959
and members of our society
live five years past that,

425
00:28:11,992 --> 00:28:14,695
which brings us on par with...

426
00:28:15,329 --> 00:28:18,132
...white nonsmokers.

427
00:28:18,165 --> 00:28:21,068
And the privilege
and responsibility

428
00:28:21,101 --> 00:28:25,105
was upheld by Rosie...
the Riveter's nanny

429
00:28:25,139 --> 00:28:27,308
and Crispus Attucks.

430
00:28:27,341 --> 00:28:29,810
He really took one
for the team.

431
00:28:29,843 --> 00:28:33,747
And we can't forget Nancy Green
and her trademark syrup

432
00:28:33,781 --> 00:28:36,250
that funds our work today.

433
00:28:37,851 --> 00:28:41,288
So, understanding
this noble burden,

434
00:28:41,322 --> 00:28:42,990
will you join?

435
00:28:46,126 --> 00:28:47,461
Yes.

436
00:28:47,494 --> 00:28:49,830
Well, I officially welcome you

437
00:28:49,863 --> 00:28:53,934
to the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

438
00:29:28,603 --> 00:29:31,238
-You ready?
-Oh, wow.

439
00:29:33,140 --> 00:29:35,009
Um...

440
00:29:35,042 --> 00:29:36,210
Yeah.

441
00:29:54,529 --> 00:29:56,397
-Thanks.
-Thank you.

442
00:30:18,485 --> 00:30:20,522
-Hello?
-Why aren't you here yet?

443
00:30:20,555 --> 00:30:23,057
Uh, yeah, I just, uh,
I needed a second.

444
00:30:23,090 --> 00:30:24,592
I have to brief you
on your first client.

445
00:30:24,626 --> 00:30:26,460
Also, why am I
looking at a table?

446
00:30:26,493 --> 00:30:28,462
Okay, I'll be right in
and we can talk.

447
00:30:28,495 --> 00:30:30,598
-I'm sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry.
-It's okay.

448
00:30:30,632 --> 00:30:32,132
-I wasn't looking and...
-It's okay. It's fine.

449
00:30:32,166 --> 00:30:33,334
-Sorry. -You're fine.
Don't worry about it.

450
00:30:33,367 --> 00:30:34,368
Can I buy you a new one?

451
00:30:36,604 --> 00:30:38,172
Uh, yeah. Okay, sure.

452
00:30:38,205 --> 00:30:39,607
-That's-that's nice of you.
-Okay.

453
00:30:49,283 --> 00:30:51,218
Oh, my God,
I was looking for coffee.

454
00:30:51,251 --> 00:30:53,987
I was looking to make sure that
I didn't spill coffee on you.

455
00:30:54,021 --> 00:30:55,489
-Yeah, no, I wouldn't...
-And I realize that totally

456
00:30:55,523 --> 00:30:57,091
looked like
I was checking you out.

457
00:30:57,124 --> 00:30:59,226
I was not checking you out.
I wouldn't do that.

458
00:30:59,259 --> 00:31:00,060
Yeah, okay.

459
00:31:00,094 --> 00:31:02,096
I-I was not doing that.
I promise.

460
00:31:02,129 --> 00:31:03,297
Okay.

461
00:31:05,299 --> 00:31:10,104
I would. I would do that
if it was, like, uh--

462
00:31:10,137 --> 00:31:13,173
You're beautiful,
and I-I would...

463
00:31:13,207 --> 00:31:17,044
In a checkout-appropriate
situation, I would do that.

464
00:31:17,077 --> 00:31:19,113
Well, what would be
a... a situation

465
00:31:19,146 --> 00:31:21,616
where it's appropriate
to check me out?

466
00:31:21,649 --> 00:31:25,152
No, like a date or a...

467
00:31:25,185 --> 00:31:27,054
betrothal or--
I don't know what I'm saying.

468
00:31:27,087 --> 00:31:29,123
It's-- I was really
just looking for coffee.

469
00:31:29,156 --> 00:31:32,292
-It's okay.
-Thank you. Sorry.

470
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,268
I don't... I don't believe you.

471
00:31:41,301 --> 00:31:43,671
-You don't believe me? Why?
-No. You just...

472
00:31:43,705 --> 00:31:45,573
You just said that
you weren't checking me out,

473
00:31:45,607 --> 00:31:47,274
and then you said I was pretty.

474
00:31:47,307 --> 00:31:49,143
So how would you decide
that I was pretty?

475
00:31:49,176 --> 00:31:50,545
There's a difference,
there's a difference between

476
00:31:50,578 --> 00:31:52,246
-noticing how someone looks
and, like... -Okay. Okay.

477
00:31:52,279 --> 00:31:54,682
...skeevily, like,
looking them up and down.

478
00:31:54,716 --> 00:31:56,183
Okay, thanks
for letting me know.

479
00:31:56,216 --> 00:31:57,685
And I didn't say
that you were pretty actually.

480
00:31:57,719 --> 00:31:59,687
-I didn't say that.
-You did.

481
00:31:59,721 --> 00:32:01,155
-I just heard what you said.
-No.

482
00:32:01,188 --> 00:32:04,057
No, I said that you
were beautiful.

483
00:32:15,169 --> 00:32:16,336
Okay.

484
00:32:18,005 --> 00:32:20,675
-Okay.
-Yeah. No, I...

485
00:32:20,708 --> 00:32:21,975
Okay, I believe you.

486
00:32:22,009 --> 00:32:23,043
-Yeah?
-Yeah.

487
00:32:23,076 --> 00:32:24,378
It's a very nice thing to do.

488
00:32:24,411 --> 00:32:26,013
Not check you out?

489
00:32:26,046 --> 00:32:27,414
No, check me for coffee stains.

490
00:32:27,448 --> 00:32:28,982
That's...

491
00:32:29,016 --> 00:32:31,018
That's a very sweet thing
to do.

492
00:32:31,051 --> 00:32:33,621
Well, I'm very nice.
It's-it's, like, a flaw.

493
00:32:33,655 --> 00:32:36,323
Yeah? Says who?

494
00:32:43,363 --> 00:32:44,766
Oh, thanks.
I didn't even check myself.

495
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:46,467
Yeah, am I good?

496
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:47,501
Hmm?

497
00:32:47,535 --> 00:32:49,269
Am I coffee-free?

498
00:32:50,204 --> 00:32:53,273
Oh, I don't know.
I was just looking at that ass.

499
00:32:54,274 --> 00:32:55,476
Wow.

500
00:32:55,510 --> 00:32:57,679
-Terrible.
-Yeah, you like that?

501
00:32:57,712 --> 00:33:00,380
I'm sorry.

502
00:33:02,249 --> 00:33:04,519
Uh...

503
00:33:05,653 --> 00:33:08,121
Uh...

504
00:33:08,155 --> 00:33:09,657
I'm s-- I have to go.

505
00:33:09,691 --> 00:33:12,259
I'm so sorry.

506
00:33:12,292 --> 00:33:13,795
Oh.

507
00:33:13,828 --> 00:33:15,597
Sorry.

508
00:33:18,131 --> 00:33:20,234
Your first client
is a Jason Mundt.

509
00:33:20,267 --> 00:33:22,202
You'll be working with him
in graphic design,

510
00:33:22,236 --> 00:33:24,371
where we felt your background
in yarn and shit

511
00:33:24,404 --> 00:33:25,507
will come in handy.

512
00:33:25,540 --> 00:33:27,274
<i>Jason works at MeetBox,</i>

513
00:33:27,307 --> 00:33:29,409
<i>the most influential social</i>
<i>media platform in the world.</i>

514
00:33:29,443 --> 00:33:32,279
<i>Millions of white people</i>
<i>see his designs every day</i>

515
00:33:32,312 --> 00:33:35,617
<i>as they post and like and do</i>
<i>whatever else they do on there.</i>

516
00:33:35,650 --> 00:33:37,117
<i>You will be a deckhand.</i>

517
00:33:37,150 --> 00:33:38,418
<i>That's one level below</i>
<i>a boatswain.</i>

518
00:33:38,452 --> 00:33:39,654
Come again?

519
00:33:39,687 --> 00:33:41,656
Spelled "boat" "swain."

520
00:33:41,689 --> 00:33:43,390
Yeah, but are we at sea?

521
00:33:43,423 --> 00:33:45,660
Well, they felt
normal job titles

522
00:33:45,693 --> 00:33:47,595
-were a bit too corporate.
-Okay.

523
00:33:47,629 --> 00:33:50,832
His meter jumped dangerously
high Tuesday 4:00 p.m.

524
00:33:50,865 --> 00:33:52,734
He was so upset
we considered sending in

525
00:33:52,767 --> 00:33:54,736
a team of
rapid response Negroes,

526
00:33:54,769 --> 00:33:56,236
but they were all my age

527
00:33:56,270 --> 00:33:58,405
and really didn't understand
what MeetBox did.

528
00:33:58,438 --> 00:34:01,341
So his morale is still
far too low.

529
00:34:01,375 --> 00:34:04,378
Your job is to figure out
what caused the jump

530
00:34:04,411 --> 00:34:07,114
and identify what he wants.

531
00:34:07,147 --> 00:34:08,683
There's a lot of research

532
00:34:08,716 --> 00:34:11,084
that if you spend
less time working,

533
00:34:11,118 --> 00:34:12,620
you're actually more productive.

534
00:34:12,654 --> 00:34:15,355
And that is why we've got
snacks, we've got games,

535
00:34:15,389 --> 00:34:17,291
we've got cots
if you want to take a nap.

536
00:34:17,324 --> 00:34:20,193
-Oh, that's great. -Yeah,
we also have a laundry service.

537
00:34:20,227 --> 00:34:21,596
We've got a car wash.

538
00:34:21,629 --> 00:34:23,698
You know, basically
you could just sleep here.

539
00:34:23,731 --> 00:34:25,833
Do a lot of people sleep here?
You keep saying...

540
00:34:25,867 --> 00:34:28,703
-Oh, no. No, no.
-Okay, cool.

541
00:34:28,736 --> 00:34:30,437
Although I could use a nap.

542
00:34:31,906 --> 00:34:33,440
I'm fine.

543
00:34:33,473 --> 00:34:34,842
This is Jason.

544
00:34:34,876 --> 00:34:36,844
-You're gonna work together
a lot. -Hey.

545
00:34:36,878 --> 00:34:38,680
-Hey.
-No, darn it.

546
00:34:38,713 --> 00:34:42,316
Um, I was hoping there was
a station right next to him,

547
00:34:42,349 --> 00:34:45,118
but there's not, so why don't
you come downstairs with me.

548
00:34:46,554 --> 00:34:48,656
-Oh, is this one spoken for?
-Hmm?

549
00:34:52,660 --> 00:34:54,729
No.

550
00:34:54,762 --> 00:34:57,431
Uh, why don't you
just settle in.

551
00:34:57,464 --> 00:34:59,232
Great.

552
00:35:01,903 --> 00:35:03,705
Looks like we're neighbors.

553
00:35:03,738 --> 00:35:06,373
Yeah, I-I guess so.

554
00:35:09,510 --> 00:35:11,512
You like games?

555
00:35:11,546 --> 00:35:13,413
Guard-guard it.
Guard your goal.

556
00:35:13,447 --> 00:35:14,882
-You better guard it.
-Okay. I'm-I'm trying.

557
00:35:14,916 --> 00:35:16,718
You better guard it.
I'm close. I'm close!

558
00:35:17,752 --> 00:35:19,687
-Oh!
-Okay.

559
00:35:19,721 --> 00:35:21,188
-Damn.
-Yes.

560
00:35:21,221 --> 00:35:22,790
-The streak is real.
-Got me again.

561
00:35:22,824 --> 00:35:24,224
Three in a row.

562
00:35:24,257 --> 00:35:25,627
-Whew.
-You practice this, don't you?

563
00:35:25,660 --> 00:35:28,462
Yeah,
I got one of these at home.

564
00:35:29,262 --> 00:35:31,431
-Lizzie.
-Uh, hey.

565
00:35:32,432 --> 00:35:33,467
Hey.

566
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:34,636
I...

567
00:35:34,669 --> 00:35:37,672
I... I-I...
I just started working here.

568
00:35:37,705 --> 00:35:39,907
That's cool. Oh, my God.
I-I've worked here for a while.

569
00:35:39,941 --> 00:35:42,242
-That-that makes sense
why you're here. -Yeah.

570
00:35:42,275 --> 00:35:43,778
And I'm...

571
00:35:43,811 --> 00:35:45,312
You guys know each other?

572
00:35:45,345 --> 00:35:46,781
-No. We just met.
-No, I mean, like, we--

573
00:35:46,814 --> 00:35:48,683
-I'm sorry. No, you go ahead.
-Sorry. No, uh, please.

574
00:35:50,417 --> 00:35:52,219
-Uh, I'm Aren, by the way.
-I'm Lizzie.

575
00:35:52,252 --> 00:35:54,756
-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

576
00:35:54,789 --> 00:35:56,390
Um, did you get my notes?

577
00:35:56,423 --> 00:36:00,662
No, no, I had to... go to this,
like, HR training and...

578
00:36:00,695 --> 00:36:02,664
That's fine, but we should
get it done tonight

579
00:36:02,697 --> 00:36:04,799
'cause then Masterson
might actually go home,

580
00:36:04,832 --> 00:36:06,466
which at this point is
kind of a human rights thing.

581
00:36:06,500 --> 00:36:07,869
Right. Yeah, no.

582
00:36:07,902 --> 00:36:10,270
-No, yeah, I'll get it.
-Thank you.

583
00:36:11,338 --> 00:36:12,807
It was nice
to meet you officially.

584
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,509
-Yeah, it's nice to meet you.
-So, I'll see you around.

585
00:36:14,542 --> 00:36:16,376
See ya.

586
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,249
-So, uh, what's her story?
-Lizzie?

587
00:36:22,282 --> 00:36:24,451
She's kind of my work wife.

588
00:36:31,793 --> 00:36:33,493
-You okay?
-I don't know, man.

589
00:36:33,528 --> 00:36:36,798
Like... I can't get
this layout to work.

590
00:36:38,900 --> 00:36:41,501
-Hmm.
-What?

591
00:36:41,536 --> 00:36:42,970
Your stroke is
a little hesitant.

592
00:36:43,004 --> 00:36:44,471
I'm sorry?

593
00:36:45,338 --> 00:36:46,440
Your keystroke.

594
00:36:46,473 --> 00:36:47,975
-Oh.
-I mean, yeah.

595
00:36:48,009 --> 00:36:50,277
Yeah, I've--
I don't know what's going on.

596
00:36:50,310 --> 00:36:51,846
I just-- Something's off.

597
00:36:51,879 --> 00:36:53,748
Like, I, uh...

598
00:36:54,682 --> 00:36:56,450
Yeah, you know,
it's like the saying goes.

599
00:36:56,483 --> 00:36:58,786
A man's grip on his...

600
00:36:58,820 --> 00:37:02,289
keyboard is like
his grip on life.

601
00:37:04,357 --> 00:37:07,394
-Who said that?
-Rosa Parks.

602
00:37:08,495 --> 00:37:11,264
-Really? When... was that...
-Yeah, my point is,

603
00:37:11,298 --> 00:37:13,467
something's going on
somewhere else in your life

604
00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:15,737
can show up in your work.

605
00:37:16,637 --> 00:37:19,040
-Hmm. -But then again,
you're the boatswain.

606
00:37:19,073 --> 00:37:20,474
-What do I know?
-No. No, you're right, man.

607
00:37:20,508 --> 00:37:21,609
Something's definitely off.

608
00:37:21,642 --> 00:37:23,343
I just feel...

609
00:37:23,376 --> 00:37:24,746
-Feel like what?
-Shaky.

610
00:37:24,779 --> 00:37:26,647
-Mm.
-Like, I'm just not...

611
00:37:26,681 --> 00:37:28,415
You know, like, when
you're trying to do something,

612
00:37:28,448 --> 00:37:30,350
but you lost your keys
and you're like,

613
00:37:30,383 --> 00:37:31,886
"I'm trying to focus,
but where are my keys,

614
00:37:31,919 --> 00:37:33,353
-where are my keys, where are
my keys?" -Ah, I feel that.

615
00:37:33,386 --> 00:37:35,056
So, that is not me.

616
00:37:35,089 --> 00:37:36,524
Like, I always know
where my keys are.

617
00:37:36,557 --> 00:37:38,693
They're in a bowl by the door.

618
00:37:38,726 --> 00:37:40,293
Okay.

619
00:37:40,327 --> 00:37:41,763
He's a perfectly fine designer,
but he's, like,

620
00:37:41,796 --> 00:37:43,631
totally convinced
that he's on the fast track.

621
00:37:43,664 --> 00:37:45,465
-Great. What else?
-He responds more to

622
00:37:45,499 --> 00:37:47,034
'90s hip-hop slang
than Uncle Remus.

623
00:37:47,068 --> 00:37:49,036
What about his Want?

624
00:37:49,070 --> 00:37:51,404
I mean, those are all
great observations,

625
00:37:51,438 --> 00:37:53,508
but we need to find out
what he's missing.

626
00:37:54,108 --> 00:37:55,710
Honestly, I'm not sure.

627
00:37:55,743 --> 00:37:59,379
You know, best I can tell
is that, for some reason,

628
00:37:59,412 --> 00:38:01,916
his meter jumped
when his last project launched.

629
00:38:01,949 --> 00:38:04,786
Is he close to anyone at work?

630
00:38:04,819 --> 00:38:06,587
He has a work wife.

631
00:38:06,621 --> 00:38:08,656
So, spend some time with her.

632
00:38:08,689 --> 00:38:09,957
Get some intel.

633
00:38:09,991 --> 00:38:11,926
With her? Yeah.

634
00:38:11,959 --> 00:38:13,094
Yeah, I could do that.

635
00:38:22,036 --> 00:38:24,038
It's Lizzie, right?

636
00:38:53,466 --> 00:38:55,102
It's really good!

637
00:38:55,136 --> 00:38:57,004
It's a shambles. It's terrible.

638
00:38:57,038 --> 00:38:58,706
I feel like if I squint,
I can totally see

639
00:38:58,739 --> 00:39:00,741
-the Chrysler Building.
-Oh.

640
00:39:00,775 --> 00:39:03,044
It's supposed to be
the Empire State Building.

641
00:39:03,077 --> 00:39:04,745
That's what I said,

642
00:39:04,779 --> 00:39:06,413
-the Empire State Building.
-That's not what you said.

643
00:39:06,446 --> 00:39:07,882
-Yes, it is.
You didn't hear me. -No.

644
00:39:07,915 --> 00:39:09,851
-Wow.
-What?

645
00:39:09,884 --> 00:39:10,818
There.

646
00:39:10,852 --> 00:39:12,485
You added jumpers?

647
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:13,855
No, no.

648
00:39:13,888 --> 00:39:15,756
They're, like...

649
00:39:15,790 --> 00:39:17,390
They're, like, a couple.

650
00:39:17,424 --> 00:39:18,960
-You know, in the movies.
-Oh.

651
00:39:18,993 --> 00:39:20,728
That's really sweet.

652
00:39:20,761 --> 00:39:22,964
Hey.
Uh, nice. Chrysler Building.

653
00:39:22,997 --> 00:39:24,999
Hell yeah.

654
00:39:25,032 --> 00:39:26,133
Masterson wants you.

655
00:39:26,167 --> 00:39:28,603
Okay.

656
00:39:29,436 --> 00:39:30,771
I will see you, gents.

657
00:39:30,805 --> 00:39:33,074
-All right.
-Watch them for me.

658
00:39:33,107 --> 00:39:34,575
You got it.

659
00:39:34,609 --> 00:39:36,110
-Good luck.
-See you, guys. Bye.

660
00:39:36,143 --> 00:39:38,546
Yo, who took my tugboat?

661
00:39:40,915 --> 00:39:43,651
Okay.

662
00:39:43,684 --> 00:39:44,852
Wow.

663
00:39:45,820 --> 00:39:47,021
She's great.

664
00:39:47,054 --> 00:39:48,789
-Yeah, she's cool.
-Are you kidding?

665
00:39:48,823 --> 00:39:49,690
Come on, man.

666
00:39:49,724 --> 00:39:53,460
She's-she's smart
and funny and she's--

667
00:39:53,493 --> 00:39:54,662
Have you seen her work?

668
00:39:54,695 --> 00:39:56,163
She's, like,
a ridiculous designer.

669
00:39:56,197 --> 00:39:57,632
-Yeah. -She's, like,
the best designer here.

670
00:39:57,665 --> 00:40:00,101
Yeah, she's definitely
the golden child.

671
00:40:02,770 --> 00:40:04,505
You know, th-they're
actually saying that

672
00:40:04,538 --> 00:40:06,040
about you, too,
around the office.

673
00:40:06,073 --> 00:40:07,174
I hear that all the time about

674
00:40:07,208 --> 00:40:09,010
how amazing of a designer
you are.

675
00:40:09,043 --> 00:40:10,477
Thanks, man.

676
00:40:10,511 --> 00:40:11,913
Yeah, y-you guys
are completely different.

677
00:40:11,946 --> 00:40:13,581
You're-you're actually--

678
00:40:13,614 --> 00:40:15,182
You-you work
really well together.

679
00:40:15,216 --> 00:40:16,817
-You think?
-Yeah.

680
00:40:16,851 --> 00:40:18,719
It's like you have such talent,
she has such talent.

681
00:40:18,753 --> 00:40:21,589
It's like,
it's like a power couple.

682
00:40:21,622 --> 00:40:23,691
Work-wise, you know.

683
00:40:26,961 --> 00:40:28,763
MeetBox is under fire,

684
00:40:28,796 --> 00:40:32,166
as new complaints emerge its
facial recognition technology

685
00:40:32,199 --> 00:40:34,001
fails to identify Black people.

686
00:40:34,035 --> 00:40:37,638
Critics say a lack of diversity
on the engineering team

687
00:40:37,672 --> 00:40:39,507
may have contributed
to the issue.

688
00:40:39,540 --> 00:40:41,208
And with public pressure
growing,

689
00:40:41,242 --> 00:40:43,244
MeetBox founder
Mick Morton has promised

690
00:40:43,277 --> 00:40:44,912
sweeping internal changes.

691
00:40:55,723 --> 00:40:57,558
-Ahoy. -Ahoy.
-Ahoy.

692
00:40:58,693 --> 00:41:00,094
When I dropped out of Harvard

693
00:41:00,127 --> 00:41:02,163
to build MeetBox
in my parents' garage,

694
00:41:02,196 --> 00:41:03,731
I remember thinking,

695
00:41:03,764 --> 00:41:05,700
"I hope they don't
pull the car in."

696
00:41:10,204 --> 00:41:11,706
I also remember thinking

697
00:41:11,739 --> 00:41:14,675
MeetBox had to be
a platform for everybody.

698
00:41:15,309 --> 00:41:17,511
Now, in the next few days,
you're gonna hear

699
00:41:17,545 --> 00:41:20,247
the media claim
that we have failed at that.

700
00:41:20,281 --> 00:41:23,150
You're gonna hear
outlandish accusations.

701
00:41:23,184 --> 00:41:24,919
"Mick's biased.

702
00:41:24,952 --> 00:41:26,587
"Mick's a racist.

703
00:41:26,620 --> 00:41:28,990
Mick hates
the entire nation of Ghana."

704
00:41:29,023 --> 00:41:30,624
That's not me.

705
00:41:30,658 --> 00:41:32,727
It's not who we are.

706
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,563
We are the same company that,
last quarter alone,

707
00:41:35,596 --> 00:41:38,532
partnered with
22 Black-owned vendors.

708
00:41:38,566 --> 00:41:40,634
We are the same company that,

709
00:41:40,668 --> 00:41:42,837
during the
George Floyd protests,

710
00:41:42,870 --> 00:41:45,006
suspended operations
for 12 hours.

711
00:41:45,039 --> 00:41:46,807
We're the same company

712
00:41:46,841 --> 00:41:50,678
whose flagship office
has a world cuisine station

713
00:41:50,711 --> 00:41:52,680
dedicated to the food
of the Caribbean

714
00:41:52,713 --> 00:41:54,048
and occasionally Africa.

715
00:41:54,081 --> 00:41:57,218
It's diverse, it's different,
it's yummy.

716
00:41:57,251 --> 00:41:58,619
We like it.

717
00:41:58,652 --> 00:41:59,820
That's who we are.

718
00:42:04,725 --> 00:42:06,627
But to make it crystal clear
who we are,

719
00:42:06,660 --> 00:42:09,296
I am thrilled to announce
that in the next 30 days,

720
00:42:09,330 --> 00:42:11,832
we are relaunching
the MeetBox brand.

721
00:42:11,866 --> 00:42:13,667
At a company-wide presentation,

722
00:42:13,701 --> 00:42:17,138
our top design team will pitch
a MeetBox makeover.

723
00:42:17,171 --> 00:42:18,939
We're gonna have a new logo,

724
00:42:18,973 --> 00:42:21,942
a new slogan
and a new commitment

725
00:42:21,976 --> 00:42:24,845
to the exact same values
that got us here.

726
00:42:25,679 --> 00:42:27,948
-He's incredible.
-Hmm.

727
00:42:34,889 --> 00:42:37,925
So that's Jason's Want:
to be like Mick.

728
00:42:37,958 --> 00:42:38,826
Mick's a CEO.

729
00:42:38,859 --> 00:42:41,062
That makes Jason
a five-, ten-year client.

730
00:42:41,095 --> 00:42:42,363
And those are different.

731
00:42:42,396 --> 00:42:44,065
Less magic, more listening.

732
00:42:44,098 --> 00:42:46,801
Yeah, it's actually fun
and weirdly relaxing.

733
00:42:46,834 --> 00:42:49,036
It's like being a secret agent
with none of the danger.

734
00:43:06,387 --> 00:43:09,090
So, uh, I actually had
a question for you

735
00:43:09,123 --> 00:43:10,391
about Jason's work wife.

736
00:43:10,424 --> 00:43:12,693
Aren, just ask the girl out.

737
00:43:12,726 --> 00:43:14,728
-Can I?
-We're not monks, Aren.

738
00:43:14,762 --> 00:43:16,697
You're just scared to ask her.

739
00:43:16,730 --> 00:43:19,133
-I'm getting to it, all right?
-When?

740
00:43:21,969 --> 00:43:23,003
Tomorrow.

741
00:43:25,372 --> 00:43:27,007
Okay.

742
00:43:34,348 --> 00:43:35,850
-Dude.
-Whoa.

743
00:43:35,883 --> 00:43:36,585
Thank you.

744
00:43:36,617 --> 00:43:39,019
-You're welcome.
-Seriously, man.

745
00:43:39,053 --> 00:43:40,321
It was like an epiphany.

746
00:43:40,354 --> 00:43:41,722
I can't believe
I didn't see it before.

747
00:43:41,755 --> 00:43:42,857
Sorry, what-what are
we talking about?

748
00:43:42,890 --> 00:43:44,758
Lizzie.

749
00:43:44,792 --> 00:43:46,827
-What?
-Don't play dumb, man.

750
00:43:46,861 --> 00:43:49,797
I know what you were doing,
going on about her.

751
00:43:49,830 --> 00:43:51,699
You were trying to...
you were trying to set us up.

752
00:43:51,732 --> 00:43:53,667
No. No, no, no.
That's not what I was doing.

753
00:43:53,701 --> 00:43:55,002
-I was...
-It's okay. It's cool.

754
00:43:55,035 --> 00:43:57,404
I'm grateful because
you got me thinking,

755
00:43:57,438 --> 00:43:59,406
"Why haven't we
gotten together?"

756
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,041
And then it hit me.

757
00:44:01,075 --> 00:44:02,643
I'm into Lizzie.

758
00:44:04,945 --> 00:44:06,447
Hey, man, you were, um,

759
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,083
you were pretty focused on
being like Mick.

760
00:44:09,116 --> 00:44:10,918
I am.

761
00:44:11,752 --> 00:44:13,287
You want both things?

762
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:14,688
I do.

763
00:44:14,722 --> 00:44:17,358
-Isn't that cool?
-Yeah.

764
00:44:17,391 --> 00:44:19,426
Clarity is dope, man.

765
00:44:19,460 --> 00:44:21,061
Right.

766
00:44:21,095 --> 00:44:23,297
-He wants both things?
-Yeah, can he even do that?

767
00:44:23,330 --> 00:44:27,301
Yes, but a Double Want is not
ideal for your first client.

768
00:44:27,334 --> 00:44:30,070
Okay, great, well, then
I'm just gonna focus on work

769
00:44:30,104 --> 00:44:32,907
and let him
deal with his love life.

770
00:44:32,940 --> 00:44:35,176
You know, the company's
about to do the big rebrand,

771
00:44:35,209 --> 00:44:36,810
-and so I feel like...
-No.

772
00:44:36,844 --> 00:44:39,713
You're going to concentrate on
both things at once.

773
00:44:39,747 --> 00:44:41,849
And, Aren, I hope
I don't have to tell you this,

774
00:44:41,882 --> 00:44:46,220
but you cannot have a romantic
relationship with Lizzie now.

775
00:44:46,253 --> 00:44:48,756
Is that going to be a problem?

776
00:44:48,789 --> 00:44:50,457
Because if you don't
put Jason first,

777
00:44:50,491 --> 00:44:52,793
everyone's magic will fail.

778
00:44:52,826 --> 00:44:56,063
I was hoping that was, like,
a team-building thing.

779
00:44:56,096 --> 00:44:57,865
We're all in this together now.

780
00:44:57,898 --> 00:44:59,934
So you have to set up
Lizzie and Jason,

781
00:44:59,967 --> 00:45:03,704
and I have to drive around
this crotchety old white lady.

782
00:45:12,379 --> 00:45:14,815
Oh. Lizzie texted me.

783
00:45:14,848 --> 00:45:16,183
What should I say?

784
00:45:18,152 --> 00:45:20,154
-Let's start with what
she said. -Okay, she said,

785
00:45:20,187 --> 00:45:23,424
"Can I get
that timeline, please?"

786
00:45:23,457 --> 00:45:25,492
What do you think it means?

787
00:45:25,527 --> 00:45:28,229
Hey. You two talking about me?

788
00:45:28,262 --> 00:45:30,965
-Hey.
-What's up? Hey.

789
00:45:32,466 --> 00:45:34,735
Oh, my-- Wait, are you?

790
00:45:35,369 --> 00:45:37,004
Yeah, actually, we were.

791
00:45:37,037 --> 00:45:38,839
We were just, uh, wondering
if you wanted to get a drink

792
00:45:38,872 --> 00:45:41,275
-with us after work, right?
-Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

793
00:45:41,308 --> 00:45:43,511
Oh.

794
00:45:43,545 --> 00:45:45,112
Okay, yeah. That sounds great.

795
00:45:45,145 --> 00:45:48,349
Um, as long as Jason
gets me that timeline.

796
00:45:49,316 --> 00:45:50,951
Yeah, it's-- Yeah, it's chill.

797
00:45:50,985 --> 00:45:53,120
Okay, great.
Let me know about drinks.

798
00:45:53,153 --> 00:45:55,055
All right.

799
00:45:57,024 --> 00:45:58,859
-Thank you.
-Yeah, you're welcome.

800
00:45:58,892 --> 00:46:01,962
-Geez. -I'll just, uh,
I'll make up an excuse

801
00:46:01,996 --> 00:46:03,897
-last minute, and then
you guys are all set. -What?

802
00:46:03,931 --> 00:46:05,499
-All right?
-No, no. No, no, no, no.

803
00:46:05,533 --> 00:46:07,067
You... You're coming.

804
00:46:07,101 --> 00:46:09,803
-Why?
-Did you just see me?

805
00:46:09,837 --> 00:46:11,872
"It's chill"?

806
00:46:11,905 --> 00:46:12,906
-Okay.
-I've never said "chill."

807
00:46:12,940 --> 00:46:14,074
All right, yeah, okay, fine.

808
00:46:14,108 --> 00:46:16,377
I'll come for one drink,
all right?

809
00:46:18,846 --> 00:46:21,015
-Should I send the timeline?
-Yeah, send it now.

810
00:46:21,048 --> 00:46:22,950
-Send it? -You should
probably send it now.

811
00:46:23,984 --> 00:46:26,253
<i>So Jason and I</i>
<i>worked on it for a week,</i>

812
00:46:26,287 --> 00:46:28,022
-and then... -Yeah, and then...
and then Masterson

813
00:46:28,055 --> 00:46:29,423
fell asleep
right in front of me.

814
00:46:29,456 --> 00:46:31,191
Oh, my God.

815
00:46:31,225 --> 00:46:32,926
That's pretty funny.

816
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:34,562
Your stories are
getting better.

817
00:46:34,596 --> 00:46:36,196
-It was good, right?
-Yeah, it's good.

818
00:46:36,230 --> 00:46:37,898
-I'm getting funnier.
-You're making my job easier.

819
00:46:37,931 --> 00:46:40,234
-Maybe.
-Yeah.

820
00:46:44,639 --> 00:46:46,073
Should we do another round?

821
00:46:46,106 --> 00:46:47,441
-Should we do one more?
-Yeah. -Yeah.

822
00:46:47,474 --> 00:46:49,943
-Yeah, let's do it.
-Yeah? Okay.

823
00:46:49,977 --> 00:46:51,445
-No, I got it.
-You got it?

824
00:46:51,478 --> 00:46:53,080
-All right, thank you.
-Thank you.

825
00:46:53,113 --> 00:46:55,349
...country music superstar.

826
00:46:55,382 --> 00:46:56,917
In other news, the fallout from

827
00:46:56,950 --> 00:46:59,621
MeetBox's facial recognition
scandal continues.

828
00:46:59,654 --> 00:47:01,589
The technology required

829
00:47:01,623 --> 00:47:03,123
to access the platform
has prevented

830
00:47:03,157 --> 00:47:05,560
the entire nation of Ghana
from logging on

831
00:47:05,593 --> 00:47:07,428
for several days.

832
00:47:07,461 --> 00:47:08,896
Well, on the one hand,

833
00:47:08,929 --> 00:47:11,298
it's been great for
my productivity at work.

834
00:47:11,332 --> 00:47:13,400
But on the other hand,
it was quite racist.

835
00:47:13,434 --> 00:47:15,936
The growing outcry
made its way to social media,

836
00:47:15,969 --> 00:47:18,272
where the hashtag "Ghanagate"
has been trending...

837
00:47:18,305 --> 00:47:21,543
I'm so sick of this, this whole
facial recognition thing.

838
00:47:21,576 --> 00:47:22,943
God, I know.

839
00:47:22,976 --> 00:47:25,212
It was a mistake.

840
00:47:25,245 --> 00:47:28,048
Oh, no, I meant, like, I'm
just so sick of thinking about

841
00:47:28,082 --> 00:47:31,619
how we all work for these
people who are responsible.

842
00:47:31,653 --> 00:47:36,023
So what? So everybody who was
on that team is a bad person?

843
00:47:36,056 --> 00:47:37,958
I didn't say that. Um...

844
00:47:37,991 --> 00:47:40,227
Wait, did you--
Was that your last project?

845
00:47:40,260 --> 00:47:42,262
Uh, yeah, yeah.

846
00:47:44,398 --> 00:47:47,101
And we were doing our best,
you know, and...

847
00:47:47,134 --> 00:47:50,070
I'm-I'm sorry.
I forgot that you were on that.

848
00:47:50,104 --> 00:47:52,507
-No, it's... I don't care.
-Yeah.

849
00:47:52,540 --> 00:47:53,974
I was just
blowing off steam about...

850
00:47:54,007 --> 00:47:55,142
People are being
really sensitive right now.

851
00:47:55,175 --> 00:47:56,310
You know,
it's a hot-button issue

852
00:47:56,343 --> 00:47:57,545
-right now.
-Yeah.

853
00:47:57,579 --> 00:47:58,912
That's totally
what I was commenting on.

854
00:47:58,946 --> 00:48:00,114
-Right.
-You're not a bad person.

855
00:48:00,147 --> 00:48:02,650
-Oh, not at all.
-Right. Right. Yeah, no.

856
00:48:02,684 --> 00:48:04,952
-I'm sorry.
-No, it's fine, it's fine.

857
00:48:04,985 --> 00:48:06,920
But, yeah, thank you.

858
00:48:06,954 --> 00:48:08,188
You're good.

859
00:48:08,222 --> 00:48:10,658
And, look, I mean,
would it have helped

860
00:48:10,692 --> 00:48:14,261
to have people of color
on the team?

861
00:48:14,294 --> 00:48:15,530
Maybe. Yeah.

862
00:48:15,563 --> 00:48:17,364
But...

863
00:48:17,398 --> 00:48:18,999
you know, it was
a really competitive project,

864
00:48:19,032 --> 00:48:20,300
and no people like you made it,

865
00:48:20,334 --> 00:48:23,370
so I don't know
what they want me to do.

866
00:48:27,341 --> 00:48:30,177
I think, uh, you shouldn't
beat yourself up over it.

867
00:48:30,210 --> 00:48:33,213
-Yeah. Exactly.
-That's the main thing.

868
00:48:33,247 --> 00:48:34,248
Yeah.

869
00:48:34,281 --> 00:48:35,650
Right.

870
00:48:35,683 --> 00:48:37,184
And I'm not.

871
00:48:37,217 --> 00:48:40,220
Like, I thought about it
for a few minutes

872
00:48:40,254 --> 00:48:41,088
I'm moving on.

873
00:48:41,121 --> 00:48:43,223
Cause you can't--
you cannot slow down

874
00:48:43,257 --> 00:48:44,726
and listen to the haters and...

875
00:48:52,332 --> 00:48:54,101
What?

876
00:48:54,134 --> 00:48:55,570
No, I should've said something.

877
00:48:55,603 --> 00:48:57,037
You did.

878
00:48:57,070 --> 00:48:59,039
You-you said exactly
what I was thinking

879
00:48:59,072 --> 00:49:00,575
-about the whole scandal.
-Yeah, and then

880
00:49:00,608 --> 00:49:05,446
Jason got all guilty, and I
just, like, completely bailed.

881
00:49:05,479 --> 00:49:06,581
I'm so stupid.

882
00:49:06,614 --> 00:49:08,382
No, don't... it's...

883
00:49:08,415 --> 00:49:10,718
You were trying to make him
feel better, you know.

884
00:49:10,752 --> 00:49:12,453
We both were.

885
00:49:12,486 --> 00:49:14,622
Yeah, well, now I feel worse.

886
00:49:14,656 --> 00:49:16,290
I mean, don't you?

887
00:49:16,323 --> 00:49:19,326
It's okay to...
pick your battles.

888
00:49:19,359 --> 00:49:21,596
That's the thing. I feel like
I'm not really picking.

889
00:49:21,629 --> 00:49:25,332
It just feels like this reflex.

890
00:49:26,266 --> 00:49:28,035
Okay, that doesn't make sense.

891
00:49:28,068 --> 00:49:29,336
No, actually that makes
perfect sense.

892
00:49:29,369 --> 00:49:32,372
It's like when...
when someone sneezes,

893
00:49:32,406 --> 00:49:35,175
how you say "Bless you"
without even thinking.

894
00:49:35,209 --> 00:49:37,077
Only then you look up
afterwards,

895
00:49:37,110 --> 00:49:40,013
and you're like, "What did I...
What did I just bless?"

896
00:49:40,047 --> 00:49:41,415
-Yeah.
-Right.

897
00:49:41,448 --> 00:49:43,618
Yeah.

898
00:49:43,651 --> 00:49:45,185
I don't know.

899
00:49:45,219 --> 00:49:47,421
It's-it's one thing
to not stand up for myself,

900
00:49:47,454 --> 00:49:50,525
but then when
I-I look over and I see

901
00:49:50,558 --> 00:49:54,094
that you're uncomfortable, too,
it's just...

902
00:49:56,631 --> 00:49:59,266
I should've said something.

903
00:50:02,069 --> 00:50:04,506
Thank you... for saying that.

904
00:50:04,539 --> 00:50:07,441
That's-that's really...

905
00:50:07,474 --> 00:50:08,510
That's really nice.

906
00:50:08,543 --> 00:50:09,811
I don't have a lot of people

907
00:50:09,844 --> 00:50:12,279
that stick up for me, so...

908
00:50:14,348 --> 00:50:15,750
Well, I didn't
stick up for you.

909
00:50:15,783 --> 00:50:18,018
I just thought about it.

910
00:50:24,626 --> 00:50:26,528
Well, Lizzie pulled me
aside this morning

911
00:50:26,561 --> 00:50:28,730
and was rehashing
our conversation at the bar,

912
00:50:28,763 --> 00:50:31,666
and apparently I upset her.

913
00:50:31,699 --> 00:50:33,535
-Wait, what?
-I know.

914
00:50:33,568 --> 00:50:36,403
But you weren't upset, right?

915
00:50:36,436 --> 00:50:37,572
No, no.

916
00:50:37,605 --> 00:50:39,172
Good.

917
00:50:40,508 --> 00:50:42,242
-Wow.
-Right?

918
00:50:42,276 --> 00:50:44,144
Cause I obviously care
very deeply

919
00:50:44,177 --> 00:50:47,582
about this stuff, and I take it
really seriously, but...

920
00:50:47,615 --> 00:50:51,151
Honestly, I didn't even know
she was, like, ethnic at first.

921
00:50:51,184 --> 00:50:54,656
So, like, don't come at me
when you're...

922
00:50:54,689 --> 00:50:56,256
you're me.

923
00:50:56,858 --> 00:50:58,358
You know?

924
00:51:00,562 --> 00:51:01,663
You gonna serve?

925
00:51:01,696 --> 00:51:03,631
Uh, yeah. Sorry.

926
00:51:05,533 --> 00:51:08,302
Um, are you and Lizzie
good, though?

927
00:51:08,335 --> 00:51:09,637
Oh, yeah.
I mean, she was basically

928
00:51:09,671 --> 00:51:10,838
flirting with me
by the end of it.

929
00:51:10,872 --> 00:51:12,472
Oh, yeah?

930
00:51:12,507 --> 00:51:14,709
Yeah, she does this thing
where she, like,

931
00:51:14,742 --> 00:51:16,109
touches my arm and...

932
00:51:17,745 --> 00:51:18,880
-Easy.
-Sorry.

933
00:51:18,913 --> 00:51:20,247
It's, uh...

934
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,115
You got any more balls?

935
00:51:22,149 --> 00:51:23,216
-Yeah, I got one.
-Okay.

936
00:51:23,250 --> 00:51:24,586
<i>Our society began</i>

937
00:51:24,619 --> 00:51:26,320
<i>as an informal commitment</i>

938
00:51:26,353 --> 00:51:28,790
amongst Monticello slaves

939
00:51:28,823 --> 00:51:32,326
to help each other avoid
harsh punishment.

940
00:51:32,359 --> 00:51:35,630
Now that I can see
white discomfort everywhere,

941
00:51:35,663 --> 00:51:37,732
I'm starting to realize

942
00:51:37,765 --> 00:51:40,400
all of this stuff
that it does to me.

943
00:51:40,434 --> 00:51:42,637
Like, I apologize all the time.

944
00:51:42,670 --> 00:51:45,372
-You really should hear this.
-Oh, sorry.

945
00:51:45,405 --> 00:51:46,741
See?

946
00:51:46,774 --> 00:51:50,177
And you were so right about

947
00:51:50,210 --> 00:51:52,614
how I've been aware of this
my whole life.

948
00:51:52,647 --> 00:51:57,250
Like, I was never really able
to explain my sculpture before,

949
00:51:57,284 --> 00:51:59,754
but I-I think it's about...

950
00:51:59,787 --> 00:52:00,888
Roger?

951
00:52:02,489 --> 00:52:04,491
R-Roger?

952
00:52:04,525 --> 00:52:05,593
Am I making sense?

953
00:52:05,627 --> 00:52:09,396
You haven't been making sense
for quite some time.

954
00:52:10,898 --> 00:52:12,667
Sorry.

955
00:52:15,937 --> 00:52:17,905
Lizzie, your...

956
00:52:17,939 --> 00:52:21,542
your work on the logo
has been just...

957
00:52:21,576 --> 00:52:23,377
-just great.
-Aw.

958
00:52:23,410 --> 00:52:25,245
I mean, it was
a team effort. I...

959
00:52:25,278 --> 00:52:28,650
Well, I know that you did
all the heavy lifting, so...

960
00:52:29,784 --> 00:52:30,918
-I do.
-Thank you.

961
00:52:30,952 --> 00:52:33,387
-Yeah.
-Aw.

962
00:52:33,420 --> 00:52:36,289
I just want you to know
how great you are.

963
00:52:37,224 --> 00:52:38,626
-Thank you. Thank you.
-Yeah.

964
00:52:38,660 --> 00:52:40,460
It's just, um...

965
00:52:40,494 --> 00:52:44,398
our team is gonna be pitching
the logo to Mick himself.

966
00:52:44,431 --> 00:52:46,299
-Mm-hmm.
-And I'm gonna ask...

967
00:52:46,333 --> 00:52:49,336
I'm gonna ask Jason to do it.

968
00:52:50,470 --> 00:52:51,506
But it's...

969
00:52:51,539 --> 00:52:53,975
I'm sorry, that's my, um,
design, though, you know.

970
00:52:54,008 --> 00:52:55,409
No, I know.

971
00:52:55,442 --> 00:52:57,444
Uh, Jason's just better
in a room, and--

972
00:52:57,477 --> 00:52:59,379
-He's great in a room.
-Um, is he?

973
00:52:59,413 --> 00:53:01,616
-He's so charismatic and...
-He's loud and he's...

974
00:53:01,649 --> 00:53:04,719
Well, it's a loud...
company, Lizzie.

975
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,355
Sorry, I just feel like
I've been, I've been asking you

976
00:53:08,388 --> 00:53:10,525
-for something like this
for a long time. -Mm-hmm. Sure.

977
00:53:10,558 --> 00:53:13,695
-And we... we talked about this
in my review. -Sure.

978
00:53:13,728 --> 00:53:15,530
This particular design
means a lot to me, and...

979
00:53:15,563 --> 00:53:19,266
Okay, well, I'm up for
Rear Admiral this year.

980
00:53:19,299 --> 00:53:21,301
No, Lizzie, Rear Admiral.

981
00:53:21,334 --> 00:53:23,336
-Okay, yeah, um...
-And we should just really

982
00:53:23,370 --> 00:53:24,806
support each other right now.

983
00:53:25,673 --> 00:53:27,842
-Yeah, so...
-I heard about that.

984
00:53:27,875 --> 00:53:29,644
That's great.

985
00:53:29,677 --> 00:53:31,311
It's a big presentation,

986
00:53:31,344 --> 00:53:34,549
and Jason's just a better fit
for this audience.

987
00:53:38,619 --> 00:53:41,488
-You'll be fine.
-No, that's okay. Um...

988
00:53:50,297 --> 00:53:51,899
Oh, Masterson's calling me in.

989
00:53:51,933 --> 00:53:53,801
I'll meet you
and Lizzie at the bar.

990
00:53:53,835 --> 00:53:55,469
All right.

991
00:54:05,646 --> 00:54:06,614
Hey.

992
00:54:06,647 --> 00:54:10,283
I'm sorry, I-I actually--
I have to head home.

993
00:54:10,317 --> 00:54:11,686
-What's wrong?
-Nothing's wrong.

994
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,954
-You okay?
-Yeah.

995
00:54:12,987 --> 00:54:15,656
-Oh.
-Shit, um...

996
00:54:21,529 --> 00:54:22,830
Thank you.

997
00:54:25,666 --> 00:54:28,536
Look, um, we don't
have to go to the bar.

998
00:54:28,569 --> 00:54:32,305
We can just walk
in that direction and talk.

999
00:54:33,641 --> 00:54:37,745
Sorry, I'm just-- I'm not
super, uh, fun right now.

1000
00:54:37,779 --> 00:54:39,013
It's okay.

1001
00:54:39,046 --> 00:54:40,648
No, I'm really, uh...

1002
00:54:40,681 --> 00:54:42,550
I'm no fun.

1003
00:54:43,518 --> 00:54:47,622
I think, uh, this is fun enough
for the both of us.

1004
00:54:48,589 --> 00:54:49,356
Oh, my God.

1005
00:54:49,389 --> 00:54:51,659
Is this a ring that says
"So swag"?

1006
00:54:51,692 --> 00:54:52,794
Okay, you love that.

1007
00:54:52,827 --> 00:54:54,829
-It's very fun.
-That was a gag gift.

1008
00:54:54,862 --> 00:54:56,831
-So...
-It's almost too fun.

1009
00:54:58,032 --> 00:54:59,934
-"So swag."
-Okay.

1010
00:54:59,967 --> 00:55:01,803
Um...

1011
00:55:01,836 --> 00:55:05,338
A short, un-fun walk?

1012
00:55:05,372 --> 00:55:07,842
All right.

1013
00:55:07,875 --> 00:55:10,011
Completely joyless.

1014
00:55:10,044 --> 00:55:12,013
<i>It's my job to support Jason,</i>

1015
00:55:12,046 --> 00:55:13,581
in more ways
than you can imagine,

1016
00:55:13,614 --> 00:55:14,949
but, I mean, I don't know.

1017
00:55:14,982 --> 00:55:16,684
I think
I'm a good designer also.

1018
00:55:16,717 --> 00:55:18,820
You're the best of us.
-I mean, I don't,

1019
00:55:18,853 --> 00:55:20,688
-I don't know if I'm the best,
but, like... -No, you are.

1020
00:55:20,721 --> 00:55:22,489
I went to RISD
with some great designers,

1021
00:55:22,523 --> 00:55:23,724
-and you're killing it.
-Thank you.

1022
00:55:23,758 --> 00:55:25,793
-I mean that.
-That means a lot.

1023
00:55:25,827 --> 00:55:27,829
Thank you. I...

1024
00:55:27,862 --> 00:55:31,032
Like, if I'm being honest,
I kind of...

1025
00:55:31,065 --> 00:55:33,433
I kind of think that, too.

1026
00:55:33,466 --> 00:55:35,536
And that's, like,
this whole thing for me.

1027
00:55:35,570 --> 00:55:39,140
Like, it's taken me years
to just be able to say, like,

1028
00:55:39,173 --> 00:55:41,843
you know, "I think,
like, I, as a person,

1029
00:55:41,876 --> 00:55:44,145
do not suck fundamentally."

1030
00:55:44,178 --> 00:55:46,013
And it's...

1031
00:55:46,047 --> 00:55:49,851
This place is supposed
to be a meritocracy, so...

1032
00:55:49,884 --> 00:55:52,452
Mick? Like, Mick is
a free market psychopath.

1033
00:55:52,485 --> 00:55:54,856
If there was a way to promote
with blood sport,

1034
00:55:54,889 --> 00:55:56,724
oh, my God, he'd be
throwing us in the pit,

1035
00:55:56,757 --> 00:55:58,425
like, left and right.

1036
00:55:58,458 --> 00:56:00,061
And I'm just saying,
"Put me in the pit.

1037
00:56:00,094 --> 00:56:01,428
-Like, I'm there."
-Yeah.

1038
00:56:01,461 --> 00:56:03,531
"I'm committed.
I'm-I'm good."

1039
00:56:03,564 --> 00:56:06,934
Can I just say,
you're kind of a badass...

1040
00:56:06,968 --> 00:56:08,069
right now.

1041
00:56:08,102 --> 00:56:09,570
I mean, at all times,

1042
00:56:09,604 --> 00:56:10,872
-but specifically right now...
-Thank you.

1043
00:56:10,905 --> 00:56:12,673
...because I feel like--
I keep thinking this

1044
00:56:12,707 --> 00:56:14,575
because, uh, with me,
when I lose an opportunity,

1045
00:56:14,609 --> 00:56:16,544
I'm like, "Yeah, that's right.
That makes sense.

1046
00:56:16,577 --> 00:56:17,879
And goodbye
and thank you so much."

1047
00:56:17,912 --> 00:56:20,915
-And you're-- right now,
you're, like... -Wait.

1048
00:56:20,948 --> 00:56:22,449
This...

1049
00:56:22,482 --> 00:56:23,517
-I don't even have the word
for it. -But why?

1050
00:56:23,551 --> 00:56:24,518
That how much I don't have it.

1051
00:56:24,552 --> 00:56:25,820
You went to RISD. I mean...

1052
00:56:25,853 --> 00:56:27,788
-That's different.
-No, it's not at all.

1053
00:56:27,822 --> 00:56:29,824
That's like the Harvard
of finger painting.

1054
00:56:29,857 --> 00:56:31,726
That's how they sell it.
It's on all the pamphlets.

1055
00:56:31,759 --> 00:56:33,728
Exactly. I mean, it's...

1056
00:56:33,761 --> 00:56:37,031
Yeah, it's amazing
to even get in there.

1057
00:56:37,064 --> 00:56:40,034
-What did you study?
-Sculpture.

1058
00:56:40,067 --> 00:56:42,103
-You did?
-Mm-hmm.

1059
00:56:42,136 --> 00:56:44,005
You still do it?

1060
00:56:44,038 --> 00:56:46,707
No. Not really, um, anymore.

1061
00:56:46,741 --> 00:56:47,608
I, uh...

1062
00:56:49,243 --> 00:56:51,178
I used to love it,
but it's sort of similar

1063
00:56:51,212 --> 00:56:52,780
-to what you were saying.
-What?

1064
00:56:52,813 --> 00:56:55,917
I couldn't decide if I was,
like, really good

1065
00:56:55,950 --> 00:56:59,153
and other people didn't get me
or if I was, like,

1066
00:56:59,186 --> 00:57:03,090
a lunatic
making yarn sculptures.

1067
00:57:03,124 --> 00:57:05,593
-Yarn sculptures?
-I know, I know.

1068
00:57:05,626 --> 00:57:07,795
Sculptures with yarn?

1069
00:57:07,828 --> 00:57:10,564
-Yeah.
-Do you have pictures?

1070
00:57:11,265 --> 00:57:13,768
-I do.
-Yeah?

1071
00:57:13,801 --> 00:57:15,670
Um...

1072
00:57:17,872 --> 00:57:19,874
-They don't really work in 2D.
-Oh, my God.

1073
00:57:19,907 --> 00:57:23,077
-And they're too small
on this screen. -Are you sure?

1074
00:57:23,110 --> 00:57:25,546
-Let me see.
-Come on!

1075
00:57:39,193 --> 00:57:40,928
This looks so cool.

1076
00:57:40,962 --> 00:57:44,497
Yeah, you don't really get the
feeling that you get in person.

1077
00:57:45,633 --> 00:57:48,202
Uh, okay, so if it was, like,
right in front of me,

1078
00:57:48,235 --> 00:57:50,571
what would I be feeling?

1079
00:57:53,274 --> 00:57:55,009
Calm.

1080
00:57:56,077 --> 00:57:57,678
Quiet.

1081
00:57:58,779 --> 00:58:01,515
Kind of like how I imagine
meditating is supposed to feel

1082
00:58:01,549 --> 00:58:02,883
but you can never
actually pull off.

1083
00:58:02,917 --> 00:58:05,720
Okay, so it's-it's,
like, relaxing?

1084
00:58:05,753 --> 00:58:07,621
I'm doing a terrible job
of this.

1085
00:58:07,655 --> 00:58:09,657
-Why are you making me do this?
-No, you're not.

1086
00:58:09,690 --> 00:58:12,492
You're not.

1087
00:58:13,227 --> 00:58:14,829
Yeah, um...

1088
00:58:15,830 --> 00:58:18,899
I think my pieces are about...

1089
00:58:18,933 --> 00:58:21,035
comfort.

1090
00:58:21,068 --> 00:58:22,169
Mm-hmm.

1091
00:58:22,203 --> 00:58:24,005
Not like my shoes
are comfortable,

1092
00:58:24,038 --> 00:58:27,641
but deep social ease.

1093
00:58:28,776 --> 00:58:32,246
Like, I saw this Wall Street
bro get mugged one time.

1094
00:58:32,279 --> 00:58:34,582
-Uh, okay.
-It's an example.

1095
00:58:34,615 --> 00:58:36,550
-Okay. Okay.
-Deep social ease.

1096
00:58:36,584 --> 00:58:39,320
Uh, but when this guy
got mugged,

1097
00:58:39,353 --> 00:58:43,190
he was so surprised.

1098
00:58:44,291 --> 00:58:46,861
Yeah, I mean, isn't that
kind of essential to a mugging?

1099
00:58:46,894 --> 00:58:49,030
But no, it was the way
he was surprised.

1100
00:58:49,063 --> 00:58:50,164
It was...

1101
00:58:50,197 --> 00:58:51,899
Like, right before the mugging,

1102
00:58:51,932 --> 00:58:55,302
he was so sure that the world
wasn't gonna come for him

1103
00:58:55,336 --> 00:58:57,605
that it took him
a super long time to realize

1104
00:58:57,638 --> 00:58:59,173
that he was getting mugged.

1105
00:58:59,206 --> 00:59:01,675
I swear to God
that for a split second,

1106
00:59:01,709 --> 00:59:03,944
he thought the knife
was a present for him.

1107
00:59:05,079 --> 00:59:08,849
Like, in his mind, it was
more likely that a stranger

1108
00:59:08,883 --> 00:59:12,219
would give him
a random gift...

1109
00:59:12,253 --> 00:59:15,289
than that they would
try to hurt him.

1110
00:59:15,322 --> 00:59:17,825
Totally. Yeah.

1111
00:59:17,858 --> 00:59:21,729
And I-I want to know
what that would feel like

1112
00:59:21,762 --> 00:59:24,965
to have that expectation
of the world.

1113
00:59:26,367 --> 00:59:28,569
Just for a second.

1114
00:59:30,104 --> 00:59:32,339
Like I'm...

1115
00:59:32,373 --> 00:59:34,208
floating in salt water,

1116
00:59:34,241 --> 00:59:38,746
and I can just relax.

1117
00:59:43,717 --> 00:59:45,953
Well, what makes you
feel like that?

1118
00:59:50,391 --> 00:59:52,259
Peruvian wool.

1119
00:59:56,030 --> 00:59:58,099
And...

1120
00:59:58,132 --> 01:00:01,168
when people are talking to me.

1121
01:00:01,202 --> 01:00:04,138
-Like, me specifically.
-Mm.

1122
01:00:04,171 --> 01:00:09,210
Not an idea of me but
the person that I actually am.

1123
01:00:12,279 --> 01:00:14,682
And when does that happen?

1124
01:00:17,384 --> 01:00:19,887
Is it weird to say now?

1125
01:00:33,868 --> 01:00:35,035
Sorry.

1126
01:00:36,170 --> 01:00:38,005
-Hey.
-You sitting down?

1127
01:00:38,038 --> 01:00:39,006
I was.

1128
01:00:39,039 --> 01:00:40,407
Dude, I get to pitch Mick

1129
01:00:40,441 --> 01:00:43,043
in front of the entire company,
everyone.

1130
01:00:43,077 --> 01:00:45,746
-That's awesome, man.
-Like, I knew it was coming,

1131
01:00:45,779 --> 01:00:47,281
and this is it, it's here,

1132
01:00:47,314 --> 01:00:49,016
and I'm bringing you
along with me.

1133
01:00:49,049 --> 01:00:51,085
And I just emailed you a temp,
so you think you can, like,

1134
01:00:51,118 --> 01:00:53,154
work your magic
like you did last time?

1135
01:00:53,187 --> 01:00:55,222
Yeah. You got it. No problem.

1136
01:00:55,256 --> 01:00:56,657
Thanks, man.

1137
01:01:01,462 --> 01:01:04,165
Sorry, I've got to go back
to work.

1138
01:01:05,933 --> 01:01:08,235
That's okay.
I should actually...

1139
01:01:08,269 --> 01:01:10,070
I should go, so...

1140
01:01:12,873 --> 01:01:14,875
Thanks for the walk.

1141
01:01:15,809 --> 01:01:16,911
Yeah, anytime.

1142
01:01:16,944 --> 01:01:18,979
-I'll see ya.
-See ya.

1143
01:01:31,292 --> 01:01:34,962
A farm subsidy's not welfare
because farmers aren't lazy.

1144
01:01:34,995 --> 01:01:36,797
You know?

1145
01:01:45,973 --> 01:01:50,211
And that's why you have nothing
to be embarrassed about.

1146
01:02:35,889 --> 01:02:39,393
Normally, I would be
floating above you, godlike,

1147
01:02:39,426 --> 01:02:44,198
with magic powered by a hundred
Negroes working as one.

1148
01:02:44,231 --> 01:02:49,003
But today, Kyle here had to get
an actual chair for me.

1149
01:02:49,036 --> 01:02:52,473
Why? Because someone here
defied the Society.

1150
01:02:52,507 --> 01:02:55,876
Our powers shut down
because someone here

1151
01:02:55,909 --> 01:02:57,878
made it about himself.

1152
01:02:57,911 --> 01:02:59,413
Who was it?

1153
01:02:59,446 --> 01:03:05,419
Brutus and Kyle have
had to carry this thing around

1154
01:03:05,452 --> 01:03:08,022
like common laborers.

1155
01:03:08,055 --> 01:03:10,991
Brutus went to Dartmouth.

1156
01:03:11,025 --> 01:03:12,893
He doesn't need this shit.

1157
01:03:12,926 --> 01:03:16,063
And Kyle went to...

1158
01:03:16,096 --> 01:03:19,233
Kyle?
Baby, where'd you go again?

1159
01:03:19,266 --> 01:03:21,035
Cornell, ma'am.

1160
01:03:21,068 --> 01:03:24,838
Still technically Ivy.

1161
01:03:24,872 --> 01:03:27,308
Who did it?

1162
01:03:29,376 --> 01:03:31,412
Tonya?

1163
01:03:31,445 --> 01:03:33,380
Tell us of your crimes.

1164
01:03:34,582 --> 01:03:37,284
I told my client about himself.

1165
01:03:39,086 --> 01:03:40,087
Not much.

1166
01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:43,991
It was just like,
"Hey, you may want to revisit

1167
01:03:44,024 --> 01:03:46,226
that foundational paper
in our field."

1168
01:03:46,260 --> 01:03:48,062
Was that all?

1169
01:03:48,095 --> 01:03:50,364
And I may have sworn at him
a little.

1170
01:03:50,397 --> 01:03:52,600
He's never read it.

1171
01:03:52,634 --> 01:03:54,935
He cites it,
but he's never read it.

1172
01:03:54,968 --> 01:03:56,571
I've heard enough!

1173
01:03:56,604 --> 01:03:58,372
I hereby ban you

1174
01:03:58,405 --> 01:04:01,543
from the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

1175
01:04:01,576 --> 01:04:03,611
You will receive
a mind-erasing spell

1176
01:04:03,645 --> 01:04:07,214
that will take away any and all
recollection of your time here.

1177
01:04:07,247 --> 01:04:09,283
And then, Tonya,

1178
01:04:09,316 --> 01:04:13,621
you will receive
the most severe sentence.

1179
01:04:13,655 --> 01:04:17,091
You will be forced to live
in America...

1180
01:04:17,124 --> 01:04:18,258
No.

1181
01:04:18,292 --> 01:04:19,594
...as a...

1182
01:04:19,627 --> 01:04:21,962
regular Black person.

1183
01:04:26,266 --> 01:04:28,168
We're working to get our powers
up as soon as possible.

1184
01:04:28,202 --> 01:04:29,937
Normally, Tonya would have
helped with that.

1185
01:04:29,970 --> 01:04:32,507
What a waste.

1186
01:04:32,540 --> 01:04:34,509
To Tonya.

1187
01:04:34,542 --> 01:04:37,111
She is...

1188
01:04:37,144 --> 01:04:38,580
was...

1189
01:04:38,613 --> 01:04:40,914
the smartest of us.

1190
01:04:40,948 --> 01:04:43,551
-She's not dead, though, right?
-Probably not.

1191
01:04:43,585 --> 01:04:46,487
But without our standard-issue
charm against hate crimes,

1192
01:04:46,521 --> 01:04:47,955
the worst could've happened.

1193
01:04:47,988 --> 01:04:49,990
Like she stepped
out of our door

1194
01:04:50,023 --> 01:04:52,926
and walked
straight into a Nazi.

1195
01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:01,235
I didn't mean to put you off
like that.

1196
01:05:01,268 --> 01:05:02,570
No, no, it's...

1197
01:05:02,604 --> 01:05:04,471
I don't recruit.

1198
01:05:04,506 --> 01:05:08,375
Usually, I don't work
with the new members like that.

1199
01:05:08,409 --> 01:05:10,411
Really?

1200
01:05:10,444 --> 01:05:13,080
Dede says I'm too stern.

1201
01:05:13,113 --> 01:05:15,082
What?

1202
01:05:15,115 --> 01:05:18,285
That's what I said.
I'm likeable.

1203
01:05:18,318 --> 01:05:21,155
So, uh, why me?

1204
01:05:21,188 --> 01:05:23,023
I'll give you a compliment.

1205
01:05:23,056 --> 01:05:25,426
Watching you walk through
a room full of white people

1206
01:05:25,459 --> 01:05:27,562
is the most painful thing
I've ever seen.

1207
01:05:27,595 --> 01:05:30,030
Mm, thank you.

1208
01:05:30,063 --> 01:05:32,166
I called Dede right away
and said,

1209
01:05:32,199 --> 01:05:35,402
"I'm going to work
with this young man myself."

1210
01:05:36,604 --> 01:05:41,041
You know, uh, I just realized
I never actually, uh,

1211
01:05:41,074 --> 01:05:43,110
thanked you for helping me out
that night.

1212
01:05:43,143 --> 01:05:45,345
You don't have to thank me.

1213
01:05:46,748 --> 01:05:48,516
Still.

1214
01:05:49,349 --> 01:05:52,186
You can thank me
by doing a good job.

1215
01:05:57,525 --> 01:05:59,393
Okay.

1216
01:06:02,797 --> 01:06:05,165
-Hey.
-Hi.

1217
01:06:06,366 --> 01:06:08,168
Is everything okay?

1218
01:06:08,202 --> 01:06:10,003
Yeah.

1219
01:06:10,037 --> 01:06:11,205
I mean, I was not okay
last night,

1220
01:06:11,238 --> 01:06:13,340
and you were really sweet
about it.

1221
01:06:13,373 --> 01:06:15,175
So it's your turn.

1222
01:06:15,810 --> 01:06:17,411
-Yeah, I'm good.
-Okay.

1223
01:06:29,389 --> 01:06:31,058
I can't believe
you haven't played this before.

1224
01:06:31,091 --> 01:06:32,359
Yeah, I know. It's-it's fun.

1225
01:06:32,392 --> 01:06:34,194
Oh, my God.

1226
01:06:34,228 --> 01:06:35,630
-I know, right?
-Wow.

1227
01:06:35,663 --> 01:06:37,565
Look, he's, like,
all burned up.

1228
01:06:37,599 --> 01:06:40,802
-You can, like, pick up
his lung. -Okay, yeah, let's...

1229
01:06:40,835 --> 01:06:44,071
Hey, actually, um...
I actually had a suggestion

1230
01:06:44,104 --> 01:06:45,807
on the Lizzie front.

1231
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:47,809
-Yeah, shoot.
-I was thinking

1232
01:06:47,842 --> 01:06:50,444
that you could ask Lizzie
to present with you.

1233
01:06:51,546 --> 01:06:54,516
Why? I mean, I do the talking,
you run the deck.

1234
01:06:54,549 --> 01:06:55,650
What else do we need?

1235
01:06:55,683 --> 01:06:57,050
Well, Lizzie's
a great designer,

1236
01:06:57,084 --> 01:06:58,285
and, you know,
it's a nice gesture,

1237
01:06:58,318 --> 01:06:59,754
especially for someone
that you're into.

1238
01:06:59,787 --> 01:07:01,623
Yeah, but it's not fair.

1239
01:07:01,656 --> 01:07:03,223
No.

1240
01:07:03,257 --> 01:07:05,359
You'd still have plenty
of face time with Mick.

1241
01:07:05,392 --> 01:07:07,662
No, it's-- I mean,
it's not fair to Lizzie.

1242
01:07:07,695 --> 01:07:09,363
What-- I-I don't follow.

1243
01:07:09,396 --> 01:07:11,265
Well, I mean,
if you give somebody a break

1244
01:07:11,298 --> 01:07:12,667
and they haven't earned it,

1245
01:07:12,700 --> 01:07:14,836
you're just setting them up
to fail down the line,

1246
01:07:14,869 --> 01:07:16,804
so it's not fair to them.

1247
01:07:16,838 --> 01:07:20,140
So you don't think
Lizzie's earned it?

1248
01:07:20,173 --> 01:07:23,343
Well, I mean,
Masterson did come to me, so...

1249
01:07:23,377 --> 01:07:26,179
Yeah, true, but it could've
been either of you.

1250
01:07:26,213 --> 01:07:28,448
-Could it?
-Yeah.

1251
01:07:28,482 --> 01:07:30,618
Well, I mean, I can only
speak for me, and I got it,

1252
01:07:30,652 --> 01:07:32,520
so I must have put in
the right amount of work.

1253
01:07:32,554 --> 01:07:35,690
Well, what if Lizzie put in
the exact same amount of work?

1254
01:07:35,723 --> 01:07:37,424
But she didn't get it.

1255
01:07:37,457 --> 01:07:39,393
So the fact that you have it
is proof that you deserve it?

1256
01:07:39,426 --> 01:07:40,227
Kinda.

1257
01:07:40,260 --> 01:07:41,796
Pick up that rapier there

1258
01:07:41,829 --> 01:07:44,264
and just stab them in the nose.

1259
01:07:44,298 --> 01:07:47,535
I mean, sure, there's luck
and talent and stuff,

1260
01:07:47,569 --> 01:07:50,572
but I feel like mostly
people get what they work for,

1261
01:07:50,605 --> 01:07:52,574
and I got it, Lizzie didn't.

1262
01:07:52,607 --> 01:07:55,843
But don't other things
contribute to your success?

1263
01:07:55,877 --> 01:07:57,512
Like what?

1264
01:07:57,545 --> 01:07:59,379
Like if people treat you

1265
01:07:59,413 --> 01:08:01,448
like you're gonna be successful
your whole life,

1266
01:08:01,481 --> 01:08:04,318
don't you think that makes it
easier to succeed?

1267
01:08:04,351 --> 01:08:07,187
-Like, me specifically?
-Sure.

1268
01:08:07,220 --> 01:08:09,757
Well, I was gonna succeed,
so they would've been right.

1269
01:08:09,791 --> 01:08:11,626
Uh, but what if
they treated you

1270
01:08:11,659 --> 01:08:13,126
like you weren't gonna succeed?

1271
01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:14,629
Well, why would they? I was.

1272
01:08:14,662 --> 01:08:16,430
It's a hypothetical, Jason.

1273
01:08:16,463 --> 01:08:18,465
Well, I would've been like,
"Back off, haters." Like...

1274
01:08:18,498 --> 01:08:20,500
Okay, but that's
a really confident attitude,

1275
01:08:20,535 --> 01:08:22,604
and if you were being undermined
your whole life...

1276
01:08:22,637 --> 01:08:25,506
Well, I'm confident, so I
wouldn't let them undermine me.

1277
01:08:25,540 --> 01:08:27,341
But I'm saying, like,
what if your confidence

1278
01:08:27,374 --> 01:08:28,676
isn't actually yours,

1279
01:08:28,710 --> 01:08:30,444
it's just something
that you learned how to do

1280
01:08:30,477 --> 01:08:33,380
in response to how people
have treated you?

1281
01:08:33,413 --> 01:08:35,215
Like, for me-- and I'm not

1282
01:08:35,248 --> 01:08:36,684
actually sure
how this happened--

1283
01:08:36,718 --> 01:08:38,352
but I feel like, at some point,

1284
01:08:38,385 --> 01:08:40,253
I got taught
that other people...

1285
01:08:40,287 --> 01:08:42,456
-Dude, pump the brakes, man.
-Uh, my bad. I'm not trying...

1286
01:08:42,489 --> 01:08:43,625
No, pump the brakes
on the Humvee.

1287
01:08:43,658 --> 01:08:44,926
Oh, sorry. Sorry.

1288
01:08:44,959 --> 01:08:46,527
Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow.
Nice, nice!

1289
01:08:46,561 --> 01:08:48,395
Whew, I thought we were
gonna overshoot it. Nice.

1290
01:08:48,428 --> 01:08:50,430
Whew. What were you saying?

1291
01:08:52,567 --> 01:08:55,202
Uh, um...

1292
01:08:56,838 --> 01:08:58,205
Nothing.

1293
01:08:58,238 --> 01:08:59,507
-Holy shit, you almost died.
-Yeah.

1294
01:09:22,697 --> 01:09:24,699
<i>Were you looking for anything</i>

1295
01:09:24,732 --> 01:09:25,800
specific?

1296
01:09:25,833 --> 01:09:28,402
Just... inspiration.

1297
01:09:29,637 --> 01:09:31,271
-Yeah.
-Tough client.

1298
01:09:31,304 --> 01:09:34,942
Well, anytime Oscar here senses
a really extreme reaction

1299
01:09:34,976 --> 01:09:36,711
from one of the clients,
good or bad,

1300
01:09:36,744 --> 01:09:39,814
he starts recording to a disk.

1301
01:09:39,847 --> 01:09:41,549
And the full disks
are archived here

1302
01:09:41,582 --> 01:09:44,217
so we can look back
at these moments.

1303
01:09:44,251 --> 01:09:47,421
Usually, these are
our finest work.

1304
01:09:47,454 --> 01:09:51,491
Like, the most recent one
we caught was...

1305
01:09:51,526 --> 01:09:54,629
Huh. All right, um...

1306
01:09:54,662 --> 01:09:57,330
No one seems to have labeled
the last one.

1307
01:09:57,364 --> 01:09:59,332
And that's why you have nothing

1308
01:09:59,366 --> 01:10:01,468
to be embarrassed about.

1309
01:10:04,672 --> 01:10:06,306
Um...

1310
01:10:07,875 --> 01:10:09,577
Um...

1311
01:10:18,385 --> 01:10:20,287
-Excuse me.
-Sure.

1312
01:10:46,379 --> 01:10:48,315
I can't wait

1313
01:10:48,348 --> 01:10:50,618
to see this picture.

1314
01:10:50,651 --> 01:10:53,286
Nah, that, uh,
that didn't come out.

1315
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:54,589
Let me take it again, okay?

1316
01:10:54,622 --> 01:10:57,692
You guys ready?
'Cause this is the one.

1317
01:11:15,510 --> 01:11:18,846
He was my... second client.

1318
01:11:19,814 --> 01:11:21,381
And she was...

1319
01:11:21,414 --> 01:11:23,383
Well, I mean, she was Annie.

1320
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:28,723
First he fell for her,
then I fell for her,

1321
01:11:28,756 --> 01:11:31,358
and then I did my job.

1322
01:11:32,425 --> 01:11:33,895
You ever regret it?

1323
01:11:34,929 --> 01:11:36,964
Regret is for white people.

1324
01:11:36,998 --> 01:11:39,399
I don't think
that's how it works.

1325
01:11:39,432 --> 01:11:40,868
Well, not according
to my grandma.

1326
01:11:40,902 --> 01:11:43,004
Oh, you're gonna quote
your wise Black grandma to me?

1327
01:11:43,037 --> 01:11:45,405
To me?

1328
01:11:45,438 --> 01:11:47,008
Yeah, but this is my real one.

1329
01:11:47,041 --> 01:11:48,609
Okay.

1330
01:11:48,643 --> 01:11:52,847
See, my daddy...
he used to shine shoes.

1331
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:57,985
And this one day-- I must have
been five, six years old--

1332
01:11:58,019 --> 01:12:00,087
I went to town to see him.

1333
01:12:00,121 --> 01:12:04,391
And I was running toward him,
all excited.

1334
01:12:04,424 --> 01:12:05,893
But before I got to him,

1335
01:12:05,927 --> 01:12:10,463
this white man looked down
from the chair above him,

1336
01:12:10,497 --> 01:12:13,366
and he just spit on his head.

1337
01:12:14,902 --> 01:12:17,905
He spit on him.

1338
01:12:17,939 --> 01:12:20,708
He said something about...

1339
01:12:20,741 --> 01:12:24,444
my daddy needed
more spit in his shine.

1340
01:12:25,813 --> 01:12:28,583
And I just froze.

1341
01:12:29,884 --> 01:12:32,887
I mean, my daddy had a temper.

1342
01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,623
So I'm saying to myself,

1343
01:12:35,656 --> 01:12:37,525
"Ooh!

1344
01:12:38,826 --> 01:12:42,797
He's about to whoop the shit
out of this white man."

1345
01:12:42,830 --> 01:12:44,497
Mm.

1346
01:12:47,500 --> 01:12:52,740
But instead, he wiped the spit
off of his head,

1347
01:12:52,773 --> 01:12:55,977
and he looked up at him
and he smiled.

1348
01:12:57,979 --> 01:13:03,017
And I ran home crying,
thinking about that smile.

1349
01:13:03,050 --> 01:13:07,088
When I finally ran into
my grandmother, I told her

1350
01:13:07,121 --> 01:13:11,659
how ashamed I was of my daddy,
and she got real still.

1351
01:13:13,127 --> 01:13:14,896
And you know what she said?

1352
01:13:14,929 --> 01:13:17,031
What?

1353
01:13:17,932 --> 01:13:21,836
"If your daddy come home
alive today...

1354
01:13:23,070 --> 01:13:25,907
...he ain't got nothing
to regret."

1355
01:13:26,874 --> 01:13:30,611
So have I lost some things
to this work?

1356
01:13:31,245 --> 01:13:33,681
Some pride?

1357
01:13:33,714 --> 01:13:35,182
Her?

1358
01:13:35,216 --> 01:13:36,784
Yeah.

1359
01:13:38,552 --> 01:13:41,722
But I never regretted
one smile.

1360
01:13:43,057 --> 01:13:45,993
Because I'm still here.

1361
01:13:47,094 --> 01:13:49,496
And so many of us ain't.

1362
01:13:54,035 --> 01:13:57,204
But what do you do about the
little part of you that dies

1363
01:13:57,238 --> 01:13:59,540
every time you smile like that?

1364
01:13:59,573 --> 01:14:01,642
What, you'd rather go
all at once?

1365
01:14:01,676 --> 01:14:04,078
-No, I just...
-It's just pride, Aren.

1366
01:14:04,111 --> 01:14:06,547
-Feels like more.
-Well, that's 'cause you didn't

1367
01:14:06,580 --> 01:14:08,582
let her go
like I told you to do.

1368
01:14:10,184 --> 01:14:11,252
How'd you know that?

1369
01:14:12,620 --> 01:14:15,589
Of course I know
all about that.

1370
01:14:15,623 --> 01:14:17,457
I'm pretty much a wizard.

1371
01:14:18,092 --> 01:14:19,860
Fair enough.

1372
01:14:21,595 --> 01:14:24,031
You'll get another client,

1373
01:14:24,065 --> 01:14:25,833
and she will fade.

1374
01:14:25,866 --> 01:14:28,269
Then why do you keep
a picture?

1375
01:14:28,302 --> 01:14:30,705
So she doesn't.

1376
01:14:34,075 --> 01:14:35,776
That sounds awful.

1377
01:14:35,810 --> 01:14:37,912
Well, it's better than
the alternative.

1378
01:14:37,945 --> 01:14:43,117
If you do anything to interfere
with her or your client,

1379
01:14:43,150 --> 01:14:45,886
you could have
your memory erased.

1380
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,656
You won't even remember
she existed.

1381
01:14:50,291 --> 01:14:54,528
I'm sorry, son,
but this is the job.

1382
01:15:26,127 --> 01:15:28,062
Hey, Lizzie?

1383
01:15:28,095 --> 01:15:29,864
-Hey.
-Hey.

1384
01:15:32,199 --> 01:15:37,038
I just wanted to apologize

1385
01:15:37,071 --> 01:15:40,041
for being weird the other day.

1386
01:15:40,074 --> 01:15:42,143
No worries.

1387
01:15:42,176 --> 01:15:44,845
-Thank you.
-Yeah.

1388
01:15:46,614 --> 01:15:49,183
But, um, I really...

1389
01:15:49,216 --> 01:15:52,653
I really do want to be friends.

1390
01:15:52,686 --> 01:15:55,356
And I want to say that
out loud to you

1391
01:15:55,389 --> 01:15:59,760
because I...
I feel like we had a...

1392
01:15:59,794 --> 01:16:04,331
"We're actually gonna be
friends" night,

1393
01:16:04,365 --> 01:16:08,836
and then I was weird about it.

1394
01:16:10,137 --> 01:16:12,173
Um, yes.

1395
01:16:12,206 --> 01:16:14,075
Totally.

1396
01:16:14,108 --> 01:16:16,310
So...

1397
01:16:16,343 --> 01:16:17,845
friends?

1398
01:16:20,114 --> 01:16:21,115
Yes.

1399
01:16:21,148 --> 01:16:22,083
Are we friends?

1400
01:16:22,116 --> 01:16:23,784
Of course we're friends.

1401
01:16:23,818 --> 01:16:25,019
-Yeah. Wait, I don't...
-Friends.

1402
01:16:25,052 --> 01:16:27,188
-It's formal, but...
-Yeah.

1403
01:16:27,221 --> 01:16:28,823
Seal the deal. All right.

1404
01:16:28,856 --> 01:16:31,258
Um, I'm gonna get back
to work, okay?

1405
01:16:31,292 --> 01:16:33,794
-Okay. Okay.
-I'll see you around.

1406
01:16:39,300 --> 01:16:40,868
Hey, Aren.

1407
01:16:45,406 --> 01:16:46,707
Hey, what's up?

1408
01:16:46,740 --> 01:16:48,742
I'm sorry, I just...

1409
01:16:48,776 --> 01:16:51,278
I know you just said
that we had a...

1410
01:16:51,312 --> 01:16:54,715
uh, "We're actually gonna be
friends" kind of night,

1411
01:16:54,748 --> 01:16:56,684
but that's...

1412
01:16:57,918 --> 01:16:59,787
...that's not
what I would call it.

1413
01:16:59,820 --> 01:17:02,923
What-what would you call it?

1414
01:17:06,293 --> 01:17:08,863
Um, we had a moment.

1415
01:17:09,897 --> 01:17:11,232
Didn't we?

1416
01:17:13,300 --> 01:17:16,670
And I guess I just figured that
you were, you were acting weird

1417
01:17:16,704 --> 01:17:19,373
because it was, uh,
it was too soon,

1418
01:17:19,406 --> 01:17:21,842
um... or it was too much,

1419
01:17:21,876 --> 01:17:24,879
um, or because I outrank you.

1420
01:17:24,912 --> 01:17:27,281
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah. Yeah.

1421
01:17:27,314 --> 01:17:29,150
Yeah, I could order you
to do stuff.

1422
01:17:35,189 --> 01:17:36,924
So am I crazy?

1423
01:17:38,392 --> 01:17:40,060
No.

1424
01:17:42,363 --> 01:17:44,064
Thank you.

1425
01:17:47,368 --> 01:17:51,138
We had a really lovely moment.

1426
01:17:52,239 --> 01:17:54,041
But?

1427
01:17:54,074 --> 01:17:57,077
But... I...

1428
01:17:59,246 --> 01:18:02,983
...just started this job,

1429
01:18:03,017 --> 01:18:05,052
and...

1430
01:18:05,085 --> 01:18:07,788
I'm sorry...

1431
01:18:07,821 --> 01:18:10,257
Don't be sorry.

1432
01:18:10,291 --> 01:18:11,892
Um, no, I'm sorry.

1433
01:18:11,926 --> 01:18:14,962
I sh-shouldn't have brought it
up at work. That's...

1434
01:18:18,232 --> 01:18:19,300
We're friends.

1435
01:18:19,333 --> 01:18:21,268
-We're friends.
-Friends.

1436
01:18:22,503 --> 01:18:24,705
-Friends.
-Okay.

1437
01:18:26,006 --> 01:18:27,775
Okay, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna go home,

1438
01:18:27,808 --> 01:18:29,944
but I'll... I'll see you.

1439
01:18:29,977 --> 01:18:31,212
-Okay.
-See ya around.

1440
01:18:31,245 --> 01:18:32,947
All right, see ya.

1441
01:18:43,490 --> 01:18:46,093
<i>There's a tension here.</i>

1442
01:18:47,394 --> 01:18:51,265
Black... but palatable.

1443
01:18:52,132 --> 01:18:53,901
<i>Because they don't want to know</i>

1444
01:18:53,934 --> 01:18:56,370
<i>how much it costs you</i>
<i>to navigate them.</i>

1445
01:18:56,403 --> 01:19:00,374
<i>The sadness behind your eyes</i>
<i>every time you smile.</i>

1446
01:19:00,407 --> 01:19:05,279
<i>The lump in your throat</i>
<i>from everything you didn't say.</i>

1447
01:19:05,312 --> 01:19:09,283
<i>We're showing the client</i>
<i>the parts of ourselves</i>

1448
01:19:09,316 --> 01:19:11,852
<i>that make them feel good...</i>

1449
01:19:13,387 --> 01:19:15,789
<i>...and nothing more.</i>

1450
01:20:09,977 --> 01:20:12,614
-Hi, uh...
-Yo, presentation day.

1451
01:20:12,647 --> 01:20:14,048
Hey, let's meet 30 before.

1452
01:20:14,081 --> 01:20:17,351
Also, big news
on the Lizzie front.

1453
01:20:17,384 --> 01:20:18,886
-Yeah?
-Yeah, yeah.

1454
01:20:18,919 --> 01:20:21,422
I, uh... as soon as
the presentation's over,

1455
01:20:21,455 --> 01:20:24,058
I'm asking her out.

1456
01:20:24,091 --> 01:20:25,926
-You there?
-Mm-hmm.

1457
01:20:25,959 --> 01:20:27,629
Did you hear the part about
how after the presentation

1458
01:20:27,662 --> 01:20:29,830
I'm asking her out?

1459
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:40,341
-I'm so sorry. I-I, um...
-All good.

1460
01:20:40,374 --> 01:20:41,975
Anyway, I got a great plan
to ask her out,

1461
01:20:42,009 --> 01:20:43,344
but I'm gonna need your help.

1462
01:20:43,377 --> 01:20:45,012
What was that thing
that you said last week

1463
01:20:45,045 --> 01:20:46,447
that made her laugh?
I think it was about a...

1464
01:20:58,992 --> 01:21:01,095
Hi. This is
Lizzie. Leave a message.

1465
01:21:01,128 --> 01:21:02,963
-Hey, Lizzie, are you at work?
-Hey!

1466
01:21:02,996 --> 01:21:04,365
-I need to talk to you.
-Watch where you're going!

1467
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:08,068
You close?

1468
01:21:08,102 --> 01:21:09,503
Don't want to be
"that boatswain,"

1469
01:21:09,537 --> 01:21:11,171
but, uh, you're late.

1470
01:21:13,407 --> 01:21:15,577
<i>Hey, man,</i>

1471
01:21:15,610 --> 01:21:16,644
<i>you got an ETA?</i>

1472
01:21:16,678 --> 01:21:19,012
<i>Uh, where-where you at?</i>

1473
01:21:36,397 --> 01:21:38,499
What? LaCroix?

1474
01:21:38,533 --> 01:21:40,434
No, he's not
a dockworker, Tyler.

1475
01:21:40,467 --> 01:21:43,404
Go get the one with
the fresh fruit squeezed in it.

1476
01:21:43,437 --> 01:21:45,239
Run!

1477
01:21:47,509 --> 01:21:49,476
Mick, hi. Jason.

1478
01:21:49,511 --> 01:21:51,044
What an honor.

1479
01:21:51,078 --> 01:21:53,548
All we are really is
just bags of meat, you know?

1480
01:21:53,581 --> 01:21:55,315
In a box.

1481
01:21:58,252 --> 01:22:00,722
Okay, Linda. Linda, Linda,
Linda, Linda, Linda, Linda.

1482
01:22:00,755 --> 01:22:02,690
-Is your team all set?
-Yes, Mick, it's, uh--

1483
01:22:02,724 --> 01:22:04,124
-Of course. Of course.
-That's great.

1484
01:22:04,158 --> 01:22:07,294
You have
a very bright future here.

1485
01:22:10,998 --> 01:22:12,667
Wow, I think
I just left my body.

1486
01:22:12,700 --> 01:22:13,668
-Are we set?
-Yes.

1487
01:22:13,701 --> 01:22:15,402
-Okay.
-Yeah.

1488
01:22:28,482 --> 01:22:30,083
Ahoy.

1489
01:22:30,117 --> 01:22:32,453
Thank you all so much
for coming.

1490
01:22:32,486 --> 01:22:34,154
Or rather not coming,

1491
01:22:34,188 --> 01:22:37,759
because we are live streaming
this to your desks.

1492
01:22:37,792 --> 01:22:42,296
We read a study in
the <i>Harvard Business Review</i>

1493
01:22:42,329 --> 01:22:44,231
that said
gathering in large groups

1494
01:22:44,264 --> 01:22:46,266
leads to too much fun!

1495
01:22:46,300 --> 01:22:47,301
And unions.

1496
01:22:47,334 --> 01:22:50,337
So we're gonna have fun
from wherever we are.

1497
01:22:50,370 --> 01:22:53,608
And I would like to hear you,
one at a time.

1498
01:22:53,641 --> 01:22:55,710
First up, Los Angeles!

1499
01:22:57,444 --> 01:22:58,479
Seoul!

1500
01:23:02,517 --> 01:23:04,251
Dude, where have you been?

1501
01:23:04,284 --> 01:23:06,353
-The presentation is starting.
-I can't talk right now, man.

1502
01:23:06,386 --> 01:23:08,288
-We're about to go on.
-Have you seen Lizzie?

1503
01:23:08,322 --> 01:23:11,325
She'll be at the presentation.
Come on.

1504
01:23:12,192 --> 01:23:14,194
Uh, the other day,
I was bidding on

1505
01:23:14,228 --> 01:23:16,096
a first edition
of <i>The Fountainhead,</i>

1506
01:23:16,129 --> 01:23:17,532
and I lost.

1507
01:23:17,565 --> 01:23:22,604
Now, those of you who know me
know that I hate losing.

1508
01:23:22,637 --> 01:23:24,238
Okay?

1509
01:23:24,271 --> 01:23:26,073
But in the end,
it was kind of exhilarating,

1510
01:23:26,106 --> 01:23:30,812
cause it reminded me
of my drive to win.

1511
01:23:30,845 --> 01:23:34,782
Now, Ghana-gate...

1512
01:23:34,816 --> 01:23:36,751
reminded us that
we have to double down

1513
01:23:36,784 --> 01:23:38,285
on connecting with everybody.

1514
01:23:38,318 --> 01:23:41,355
Design will help them
find their bliss.

1515
01:23:41,388 --> 01:23:43,123
-I don't see Lizzie.
-Just find her after.

1516
01:23:43,156 --> 01:23:44,659
No, it's urgent.
I'm having a moment of clarity.

1517
01:23:44,692 --> 01:23:46,260
Hey, hey, there's nothing more
urgent than this presentation.

1518
01:23:46,293 --> 01:23:47,662
Look, I'm just
clicking the slides.

1519
01:23:47,695 --> 01:23:49,196
If I'm not back in time,
you can do it on your own.

1520
01:23:49,229 --> 01:23:50,532
-No, you have to be there.
-Why?

1521
01:23:50,565 --> 01:23:52,366
-Because you do.
-I'm just pressing a button.

1522
01:23:52,399 --> 01:23:54,334
-Do I have to spell this out
for you? -Yeah, apparently.

1523
01:23:54,368 --> 01:23:57,070
So this whole rebrand
is about diversity.

1524
01:23:57,104 --> 01:23:59,206
Now, without further ado,

1525
01:23:59,239 --> 01:24:01,275
please join me
in welcoming to the stage

1526
01:24:01,308 --> 01:24:04,144
L.A. design team head
Linda Masterson!

1527
01:24:07,414 --> 01:24:09,182
Thanks so much, Mick.

1528
01:24:09,216 --> 01:24:11,385
Well, I think it's safe to say

1529
01:24:11,418 --> 01:24:15,188
that every crew is
only as good as their captain.

1530
01:24:16,724 --> 01:24:19,561
And with Mick at
the helm, it's pretty clear

1531
01:24:19,594 --> 01:24:23,130
we're not gonna be hitting
any icebergs anytime soon.

1532
01:24:53,595 --> 01:24:56,664
These may not
seem like MeetBox words.

1533
01:24:56,698 --> 01:24:59,601
They may not be carved
on the hull of values.

1534
01:24:59,634 --> 01:25:01,569
But I would argue...

1535
01:25:05,372 --> 01:25:06,173
Hey.

1536
01:25:06,206 --> 01:25:08,509
-Hey.
-I, uh...

1537
01:25:10,778 --> 01:25:12,847
I didn't like that.

1538
01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:14,448
What?

1539
01:25:14,481 --> 01:25:15,883
That thing you said,
I didn't like it.

1540
01:25:15,917 --> 01:25:17,351
Okay.

1541
01:25:17,384 --> 01:25:18,620
I felt like you were saying

1542
01:25:18,653 --> 01:25:19,887
that I'm only here
because of my race.

1543
01:25:19,921 --> 01:25:21,288
-I didn't like that.
-What?

1544
01:25:21,321 --> 01:25:23,323
And I needed to say that
out loud.

1545
01:25:23,357 --> 01:25:24,191
Whoa.

1546
01:25:24,224 --> 01:25:27,795
I feel crazy
just blurting that out.

1547
01:25:27,829 --> 01:25:29,229
That's... Wow.

1548
01:25:29,262 --> 01:25:30,531
Whoa.

1549
01:25:30,565 --> 01:25:32,199
Just once, I wanted to say
what I thought,

1550
01:25:32,232 --> 01:25:34,669
-no matter the consequences.
-I'm not racist.

1551
01:25:34,702 --> 01:25:35,837
What?

1552
01:25:35,870 --> 01:25:37,705
-I'm not racist.
-Oh, no, no, no, no.

1553
01:25:37,739 --> 01:25:38,940
That's not what I'm saying.

1554
01:25:38,973 --> 01:25:40,340
I was just trying
to tell you how I felt,

1555
01:25:40,374 --> 01:25:41,776
which is actually
pretty big for me,

1556
01:25:41,809 --> 01:25:44,311
cause I usually only
worry about how you feel...

1557
01:25:44,344 --> 01:25:46,446
'Cause I would never say
anything racist.

1558
01:25:46,480 --> 01:25:47,915
No, I'm just talking about me.

1559
01:25:47,949 --> 01:25:49,684
I don't have a racist bone
in my body.

1560
01:25:49,717 --> 01:25:53,788
Sorry, I'm actually having a
moment of real personal growth,

1561
01:25:53,821 --> 01:25:56,390
and so-- no offense--

1562
01:25:56,423 --> 01:26:00,260
I don't really care if you're
racist on a skeletal level.

1563
01:26:00,293 --> 01:26:01,829
Whoa, we can't just,
like, throw that shit around.

1564
01:26:01,863 --> 01:26:03,430
All right?
It's like a death sentence.

1565
01:26:03,463 --> 01:26:05,600
No, getting shot
is a death sentence.

1566
01:26:05,633 --> 01:26:07,234
-You know what I mean.
-No, I don't totally.

1567
01:26:07,267 --> 01:26:08,402
You did say a thing.

1568
01:26:08,435 --> 01:26:10,805
You said
you only needed me onstage

1569
01:26:10,838 --> 01:26:12,239
-because I'm diverse.
-No.

1570
01:26:12,272 --> 01:26:14,241
-No, I didn't.
-Yes, you did.

1571
01:26:14,274 --> 01:26:15,409
No, no, I said

1572
01:26:15,442 --> 01:26:17,512
the presentation
is about diversity.

1573
01:26:18,378 --> 01:26:20,480
That... that's semantics.

1574
01:26:20,515 --> 01:26:22,617
-That's-that's not
what happened. -I'm sorry...

1575
01:26:22,650 --> 01:26:25,385
-I'm sorry you heard it wrong.
-I-I was just there. That's...

1576
01:26:25,419 --> 01:26:26,921
If what you're saying happened,

1577
01:26:26,954 --> 01:26:28,523
then I'm racist,
and I'm not racist,

1578
01:26:28,556 --> 01:26:30,424
so it couldn't have happened
how you said it happened.

1579
01:26:30,457 --> 01:26:31,726
So because
you don't want to feel bad,

1580
01:26:31,759 --> 01:26:32,894
the thing that just happened
didn't happen?

1581
01:26:32,927 --> 01:26:34,361
That makes it sound crazy.

1582
01:26:34,394 --> 01:26:35,863
-That's because it's crazy.
-Can we...

1583
01:26:35,897 --> 01:26:38,331
Can we just please
focus up here?

1584
01:26:38,933 --> 01:26:41,736
And now Jason Mundt.

1585
01:26:42,670 --> 01:26:44,271
-I don't care if you're racist.
-Dude.

1586
01:26:44,304 --> 01:26:45,807
-Everyone's racist.
-Aren.

1587
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:47,575
I care that you won't
acknowledge what just happened.

1588
01:26:47,608 --> 01:26:48,976
I'm sorry you're offended, okay?

1589
01:26:49,010 --> 01:26:50,578
I mean, how can we move forward

1590
01:26:50,611 --> 01:26:51,713
-until we acknowledge...
-I apologize. You hear me?

1591
01:26:51,746 --> 01:26:52,880
This is me apologizing.

1592
01:26:52,914 --> 01:26:54,314
...the basic facts
of the situation?

1593
01:26:54,347 --> 01:26:55,315
Are they lovers?

1594
01:26:55,348 --> 01:26:57,317
I don't think so.

1595
01:26:57,350 --> 01:26:58,786
-I'm not asking for
reparations. -I did all of it.

1596
01:26:58,820 --> 01:27:00,454
-I'm not asking for you
to apologize. -I did racism.

1597
01:27:00,487 --> 01:27:01,856
-I did slavery.
-I'm just asking for...

1598
01:27:01,889 --> 01:27:03,256
If I could just do
this presentation,

1599
01:27:03,290 --> 01:27:04,491
-that would be great.
-I'm sorry,

1600
01:27:04,525 --> 01:27:05,459
-did you say you did slavery?
-Uh...

1601
01:27:05,492 --> 01:27:07,028
Like, as an institution?

1602
01:27:07,061 --> 01:27:08,863
-How did we get there?!
-I'm just, I'm just gonna...

1603
01:27:08,896 --> 01:27:11,032
All you had to do was listen
to me and the thing that I was

1604
01:27:11,065 --> 01:27:12,633
saying about myself!

1605
01:27:12,667 --> 01:27:13,968
-Hey, what's happening?
-For Christ's sake...

1606
01:27:14,001 --> 01:27:15,536
I don't know.
He's freaking out.

1607
01:27:15,570 --> 01:27:17,004
...there's a section
of the presentation called

1608
01:27:17,038 --> 01:27:18,606
"Diverse Experiences."
It's a dumb title,

1609
01:27:18,639 --> 01:27:20,440
-but it's in there.
-Okay, Mick, I've got this.

1610
01:27:20,474 --> 01:27:21,876
-You couldn't be less
interested... -Um, excuse me.

1611
01:27:21,909 --> 01:27:23,678
-Oh, you want to get in
on this, Mick? -Uh, fellas?

1612
01:27:23,711 --> 01:27:25,012
Yeah, I think I might be able
to help out with this.

1613
01:27:25,046 --> 01:27:26,413
-Just go.
-All right. Ahoy, MeetBox.

1614
01:27:26,446 --> 01:27:27,380
Oh, you think
you understand me?

1615
01:27:27,414 --> 01:27:28,916
-Uh, yeah.
-Mick,

1616
01:27:28,950 --> 01:27:30,484
-you don't understand other
people. -And my name is Jason.

1617
01:27:30,518 --> 01:27:31,686
You own an island.

1618
01:27:31,719 --> 01:27:33,588
-Right. -I'd like
to get started...

1619
01:27:33,621 --> 01:27:35,022
-No one with an island has
empathy. -Just stop.

1620
01:27:35,056 --> 01:27:37,357
It's not possible
to possess both things.

1621
01:27:37,390 --> 01:27:38,960
-Right.
-Dude, stop.

1622
01:27:38,993 --> 01:27:40,427
Okay, I'm so sorry.

1623
01:27:40,460 --> 01:27:41,662
Why are you doing this?
We're friends.

1624
01:27:41,696 --> 01:27:42,997
You're not my friend.

1625
01:27:43,030 --> 01:27:44,464
And you don't want
to be friends,

1626
01:27:44,498 --> 01:27:46,033
because if we were
actual friends,

1627
01:27:46,067 --> 01:27:48,936
you would have to talk to me
and listen to me

1628
01:27:48,970 --> 01:27:53,574
and make space for the reality
that I live in a country

1629
01:27:53,608 --> 01:27:57,612
that makes me feel
like it wants me dead.

1630
01:27:57,645 --> 01:27:58,513
-What?
-What?

1631
01:27:58,546 --> 01:28:00,681
Where if I get shot today,

1632
01:28:00,715 --> 01:28:03,718
there is an army of people
ready to explain how it was

1633
01:28:03,751 --> 01:28:05,720
-probably my fault.
-Probably?

1634
01:28:05,753 --> 01:28:07,855
-And I feel that every day.
-Aren, the diversity section

1635
01:28:07,889 --> 01:28:10,390
-of this whole thing is coming
later. -In every glance,

1636
01:28:10,423 --> 01:28:12,627
in every movie that's
supposed to be uplifting.

1637
01:28:12,660 --> 01:28:14,494
-And maybe less about death.
-And that changes everything.

1638
01:28:14,529 --> 01:28:15,930
Because death and diversity
don't really have anything

1639
01:28:15,963 --> 01:28:17,497
-to do with each other, so...
-That changes how I walk

1640
01:28:17,532 --> 01:28:20,635
and how I talk
and how I take up space!

1641
01:28:20,668 --> 01:28:21,669
Or don't!

1642
01:28:21,702 --> 01:28:22,537
I got this. Okay.

1643
01:28:22,570 --> 01:28:24,404
It changes
what risks feel reasonable

1644
01:28:24,437 --> 01:28:26,874
and which ones are insane.

1645
01:28:26,908 --> 01:28:29,677
And it's taken me my whole life
to realize that this is

1646
01:28:29,710 --> 01:28:31,546
a weight
that I walk around with

1647
01:28:31,579 --> 01:28:32,880
-all the time.
-Hi.

1648
01:28:32,914 --> 01:28:34,515
-My name is Jason, and I...
-And after this

1649
01:28:34,549 --> 01:28:35,850
lifelong journey
of figuring out

1650
01:28:35,883 --> 01:28:37,819
that maybe this shit
impacts everything I do...

1651
01:28:37,852 --> 01:28:39,620
Linda, you-you're not Jason.
You can't do that.

1652
01:28:39,654 --> 01:28:41,022
...you want to turn around
and act like I'm crazy

1653
01:28:41,055 --> 01:28:42,623
for acknowledging it.
No, no, no, no.

1654
01:28:42,657 --> 01:28:44,357
No, no, no, no. You don't
get to put me in danger

1655
01:28:44,391 --> 01:28:45,760
just because you don't want
to feel like an asshole.

1656
01:28:45,793 --> 01:28:46,961
Young man, young man.

1657
01:28:46,994 --> 01:28:48,029
-Be the asshole.
-We have forums...

1658
01:28:48,062 --> 01:28:49,496
Mick, hold on a second.

1659
01:28:49,530 --> 01:28:50,698
-Jason!
-I beg your pardon?

1660
01:28:50,731 --> 01:28:52,667
Because the shame
that you feel like

1661
01:28:52,700 --> 01:28:54,669
you did something wrong
just by being yourself,

1662
01:28:54,702 --> 01:28:56,571
-that is my whole life.
-You know what?

1663
01:28:56,604 --> 01:28:59,106
-You know what, everybody?
-And this place...

1664
01:28:59,140 --> 01:29:00,675
-this country...
-This is MeetBox.

1665
01:29:00,708 --> 01:29:02,710
...has been
so deeply indifferent

1666
01:29:02,743 --> 01:29:04,879
to whether or not I exist...

1667
01:29:04,912 --> 01:29:09,050
...that on some level, I don't
think I have the right to.

1668
01:29:09,083 --> 01:29:10,852
And what I am saying to you

1669
01:29:10,885 --> 01:29:12,687
that you so steadfastly
refuse to hear...

1670
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:14,121
It's the Mick way.
It's the MeetBox way.

1671
01:29:14,155 --> 01:29:15,990
...is fuck that!

1672
01:29:16,023 --> 01:29:18,626
I do!

1673
01:29:19,794 --> 01:29:21,762
I deserve to be here.

1674
01:29:22,763 --> 01:29:26,366
Not just on this stage
but in this world.

1675
01:29:29,502 --> 01:29:32,940
And that, believe it or not,
is a revelation to me.

1676
01:29:34,876 --> 01:29:39,714
So you want to know about
my-my "diverse experience"?

1677
01:29:40,915 --> 01:29:43,885
I have been on this planet
for 27 years,

1678
01:29:43,918 --> 01:29:48,388
and I just figured out this week
that I deserve to be alive.

1679
01:30:09,043 --> 01:30:10,845
I didn't know that.

1680
01:30:13,014 --> 01:30:14,749
Me neither.

1681
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:21,188
-Hi.
-Hi. That was...

1682
01:30:22,489 --> 01:30:23,925
I'm gonna move us a little.

1683
01:30:23,958 --> 01:30:25,226
What?

1684
01:30:26,994 --> 01:30:28,529
So, I'm gonna go soon,

1685
01:30:28,562 --> 01:30:30,531
-and I-I can't explain.
-Oh, my God.

1686
01:30:30,564 --> 01:30:32,499
But even though we might
never see each other again,

1687
01:30:32,533 --> 01:30:34,068
I need you to know
that you're not crazy.

1688
01:30:34,101 --> 01:30:35,803
What we had was real.

1689
01:30:35,836 --> 01:30:38,839
And as long as I've known you,
I've wanted to do this.

1690
01:30:43,978 --> 01:30:45,980
Aren?

1691
01:30:51,786 --> 01:30:54,487
Aren Mbondo.

1692
01:30:58,259 --> 01:31:00,795
We have seen your crimes
on the MeetBox stage,

1693
01:31:00,828 --> 01:31:03,631
crimes that have
endangered everyone

1694
01:31:03,664 --> 01:31:07,902
and kept me
at this miserable height.

1695
01:31:07,935 --> 01:31:09,971
What happened after
you left the auditorium?

1696
01:31:10,004 --> 01:31:13,274
I teleported my client's love
interest to a romantic location

1697
01:31:13,307 --> 01:31:14,842
where I tried to kiss her.

1698
01:31:16,277 --> 01:31:19,714
In my defense,
I had feelings for her first,

1699
01:31:19,747 --> 01:31:23,050
and he kind of
colonized my crush.

1700
01:31:24,885 --> 01:31:28,723
How can you possibly justify
your behavior?

1701
01:31:29,991 --> 01:31:34,195
I guess I've always felt like
it's my job

1702
01:31:34,228 --> 01:31:36,197
to make white people
feel comfortable,

1703
01:31:36,230 --> 01:31:39,133
and obviously,
here it literally is,

1704
01:31:39,166 --> 01:31:42,069
but...

1705
01:31:42,103 --> 01:31:44,038
it shouldn't be.

1706
01:31:47,041 --> 01:31:49,643
I get it though...

1707
01:31:51,312 --> 01:31:53,280
Aren,

1708
01:31:53,314 --> 01:31:55,316
you are hereby banished

1709
01:31:55,349 --> 01:31:58,919
from the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

1710
01:32:00,921 --> 01:32:02,590
Makes sense.

1711
01:32:17,705 --> 01:32:19,807
You got a history
of concussions?

1712
01:32:20,741 --> 01:32:24,011
Because technically
this spell is brain damage.

1713
01:32:25,079 --> 01:32:26,947
I'm okay.

1714
01:32:49,970 --> 01:32:52,139
-Are you gonna...
-Just give me a second.

1715
01:32:52,173 --> 01:32:53,808
Um, yeah, okay.

1716
01:32:53,841 --> 01:32:55,743
You know you're not
gonna be able

1717
01:32:55,776 --> 01:32:57,645
to take care of yourself
out there?

1718
01:33:00,414 --> 01:33:03,717
Um... I'll be fine.

1719
01:33:09,323 --> 01:33:10,858
Okay.

1720
01:33:32,179 --> 01:33:33,948
Shit.

1721
01:33:33,981 --> 01:33:35,382
What? What's...

1722
01:33:35,416 --> 01:33:38,752
I think you must have
gave somebody notions.

1723
01:33:38,786 --> 01:33:40,921
I could really use a hand here.

1724
01:33:40,955 --> 01:33:44,959
I don't think you really
understand the welfare state.

1725
01:33:44,992 --> 01:33:45,793
What?

1726
01:33:45,826 --> 01:33:47,895
But it's got to be
a two-way street.

1727
01:33:47,928 --> 01:33:50,698
I can't be the only one
grabbing crotches around here.

1728
01:33:50,731 --> 01:33:53,167
You've got to check in
on my penis as well.

1729
01:33:56,170 --> 01:33:58,906
But this shutdown
feels different. Big.

1730
01:33:58,939 --> 01:34:01,175
-Did I just put you
out of a job? -Oh, no.

1731
01:34:01,208 --> 01:34:03,878
Being a magical Negro
isn't just about magic.

1732
01:34:03,911 --> 01:34:06,680
As long as there are
fretful whites,

1733
01:34:06,714 --> 01:34:08,916
we will be here.

1734
01:34:12,052 --> 01:34:13,754
All right.

1735
01:34:13,787 --> 01:34:16,190
Uh... I'm gonna go.

1736
01:34:16,223 --> 01:34:18,425
But what you gonna do for work?

1737
01:34:18,459 --> 01:34:20,427
Uh...

1738
01:34:20,461 --> 01:34:22,429
Actually, I have an idea
for a new piece.

1739
01:34:22,463 --> 01:34:24,331
The yarn?

1740
01:34:24,365 --> 01:34:26,333
You do remember
nobody liked it?

1741
01:34:26,367 --> 01:34:28,802
Yeah, but I do.

1742
01:34:30,104 --> 01:34:34,475
Well, if I'm letting you out of
here with your memory intact,

1743
01:34:34,509 --> 01:34:36,410
you better text me tonight.

1744
01:34:36,443 --> 01:34:38,445
Okay, sure.

1745
01:34:38,479 --> 01:34:42,082
And none of that emoji shit.
I need words.

1746
01:34:43,250 --> 01:34:46,120
I'm curious to see how you
gonna make it out of all this.

1747
01:34:46,153 --> 01:34:47,755
Make it out of what?

1748
01:34:48,956 --> 01:34:51,192
You didn't leave her in L.A.

1749
01:34:51,225 --> 01:34:53,394
Oh.

1750
01:34:53,427 --> 01:34:55,362
No.

1751
01:34:55,396 --> 01:34:56,397
No, no, no.

1752
01:34:56,430 --> 01:34:58,199
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

1753
01:34:58,232 --> 01:35:00,067
<i>Aren, what is going on?</i>

1754
01:35:00,100 --> 01:35:02,069
<i>You just left me here</i>
<i>and you just disappeared?</i>

1755
01:35:02,102 --> 01:35:03,804
<i>-I'm on the...</i>
-Excuse me!

1756
01:35:03,837 --> 01:35:05,306
<i>...on the Empire State Building.</i>

1757
01:35:05,339 --> 01:35:07,208
<i>What is going on?</i>

1758
01:35:07,241 --> 01:35:08,943
<i>Um, okay, great.</i>

1759
01:35:08,976 --> 01:35:11,745
<i>So, I'm, like,</i>
<i>on the Brooklyn Bridge now</i>

1760
01:35:11,779 --> 01:35:12,947
<i>on the way to the airport,</i>

1761
01:35:12,980 --> 01:35:16,050
<i>uh, and I guess</i>
<i>I'm in New York.</i>

1762
01:35:16,083 --> 01:35:18,786
<i>I, uh, landed in L.A.</i>

1763
01:35:18,819 --> 01:35:21,956
<i>Um, I'm in a car home</i>
<i>right now.</i>

1764
01:35:21,989 --> 01:35:23,824
<i>Um, can you just--</i>
<i>can you give me a call</i>

1765
01:35:23,857 --> 01:35:26,060
<i>and let me know</i>
<i>that you're okay?</i>

1766
01:35:30,297 --> 01:35:32,099
Lizzie.

1767
01:35:32,132 --> 01:35:33,968
Hey. I'm so sorry.

1768
01:35:34,001 --> 01:35:36,370
I didn't realize
that when I left...

1769
01:36:00,427 --> 01:36:02,896
I, uh...

1770
01:36:02,930 --> 01:36:04,398
Uh-huh?

1771
01:36:04,431 --> 01:36:05,933
Ah.

1772
01:36:05,966 --> 01:36:09,870
Hi, uh, Aren.

1773
01:36:09,903 --> 01:36:13,941
Um, I feel terrible
about leaving you in New York.

1774
01:36:13,974 --> 01:36:15,342
That was not
what I was planning on.

1775
01:36:15,376 --> 01:36:19,013
Mm-hmm.
So, do you have powers or...

1776
01:36:19,046 --> 01:36:22,016
No, right. Okay, that's
a, that's a fair question.

1777
01:36:22,049 --> 01:36:26,153
I'm part of this magic society--

1778
01:36:26,186 --> 01:36:27,388
Or-or I was.

1779
01:36:27,421 --> 01:36:29,356
I just quit, so...

1780
01:36:29,390 --> 01:36:30,924
Good on me or...

1781
01:36:30,958 --> 01:36:33,160
You're kidding.

1782
01:36:33,193 --> 01:36:34,395
Nope.

1783
01:36:34,428 --> 01:36:36,897
Which is such a crazy
coincidence, because I'm...

1784
01:36:36,930 --> 01:36:38,533
I'm also a part
of a magic society,

1785
01:36:38,566 --> 01:36:41,068
and I was about to quit.

1786
01:36:41,101 --> 01:36:42,503
Yeah, okay, that's funny.

1787
01:36:42,537 --> 01:36:44,505
-I-I deserve that.
-No, really.

1788
01:36:44,539 --> 01:36:46,040
But first I thought
I would kidnap you

1789
01:36:46,073 --> 01:36:48,042
and leave you
on the Space Needle.

1790
01:36:48,075 --> 01:36:51,945
No, I was...
I was trying to be romantic.

1791
01:36:51,979 --> 01:36:53,881
All right.

1792
01:36:53,914 --> 01:36:55,583
Just walk with me, then.

1793
01:36:55,617 --> 01:36:57,451
-That sounds much nicer.
-Okay.

1794
01:36:57,484 --> 01:37:00,354
Maybe no more magic.

1795
01:37:00,387 --> 01:37:03,991
Yeah. No more magic.

1796
01:37:04,024 --> 01:37:06,493
Oh, and you still
owe me a coffee.

1797
01:37:22,943 --> 01:37:24,311
Can I help you?

1798
01:37:28,115 --> 01:37:30,084
Oh. Okay.
