1
00:01:28,481 --> 00:01:30,415
Sorry. Excuse me.

2
00:01:36,258 --> 00:01:38,159
Excuse me. Sorry about that.

3
00:01:39,327 --> 00:01:41,426
- Oh. Sorry.
- Yeah.

4
00:01:41,461 --> 00:01:44,462
No. That's my...

5
00:01:44,497 --> 00:01:47,366
Hey, guys, I'm just gonna
squeeze past you here. Sorry.

6
00:02:10,721 --> 00:02:11,951
Hi.

7
00:02:21,699 --> 00:02:22,962
Hmm.

8
00:02:31,742 --> 00:02:33,313
Hi.

9
00:02:36,043 --> 00:02:37,416
Is that yarn?

10
00:02:37,451 --> 00:02:39,253
Yes. Yeah.

11
00:02:39,288 --> 00:02:41,321
Huh.

12
00:02:45,789 --> 00:02:48,559
- Is it... is it yarn?
- It's y-- Yeah.

13
00:02:48,594 --> 00:02:50,022
It's-it's yarn.

14
00:03:11,716 --> 00:03:13,980
Thank you so much for coming.

15
00:03:17,458 --> 00:03:19,656
- Slow night.
- Yeah.

16
00:03:21,528 --> 00:03:23,792
You know, I-I don't really need
anyone to buy my art.

17
00:03:23,827 --> 00:03:26,696
It would just be nice
if someone understood it.

18
00:03:26,731 --> 00:03:28,698
May I offer you
another perspective?

19
00:03:28,733 --> 00:03:29,831
Sure.

20
00:03:29,866 --> 00:03:31,569
I do need people
to buy your art.

21
00:03:31,604 --> 00:03:34,000
- I'm sorry.
- There's one collector left.

22
00:03:34,035 --> 00:03:36,277
Go talk to him.

23
00:03:37,973 --> 00:03:41,073
You know,
maybe my work is stronger

24
00:03:41,108 --> 00:03:42,646
if I let it speak for itself...

25
00:03:42,681 --> 00:03:44,285
- Go!
- Sure thing.

26
00:03:49,457 --> 00:03:51,083
Uh, excuse me.

27
00:03:51,118 --> 00:03:53,624
- Oh, thank you.
- Hi.

28
00:03:54,924 --> 00:03:56,660
Actually, no.

29
00:03:56,695 --> 00:03:58,728
S-Sorry, I'm not the...

30
00:04:06,804 --> 00:04:07,968
Aren.

31
00:04:09,070 --> 00:04:12,346
Does the last collector here
think you're a waiter?

32
00:04:12,381 --> 00:04:13,908
Okay.

33
00:04:13,943 --> 00:04:16,042
I'm canceling
your solo show next month.

34
00:04:16,077 --> 00:04:19,078
No, no.
I already bought the materials.

35
00:04:19,113 --> 00:04:21,619
I...

36
00:04:21,654 --> 00:04:23,852
I spent $3,000 on yarn.

37
00:04:23,887 --> 00:04:26,459
That may be, but if you
can't stick up for your work,

38
00:04:26,494 --> 00:04:28,395
I can't do it for you.

39
00:06:52,299 --> 00:06:54,035
Can you, can you help me?

40
00:06:57,205 --> 00:07:00,745
The machine's being a dick.

41
00:07:01,715 --> 00:07:03,913
Um...

42
00:07:03,948 --> 00:07:05,783
Yeah, okay. Sure.

43
00:07:05,818 --> 00:07:08,181
- What do you need?
- Can you get cash for me?

44
00:07:08,216 --> 00:07:11,525
My PIN is 310... -No, no,
you shouldn't tell me your PIN.

45
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,595
...555-0164.

46
00:07:16,697 --> 00:07:18,796
Actually, I think
that might be a phone number.

47
00:07:20,030 --> 00:07:22,096
Hold on.

48
00:07:25,068 --> 00:07:26,804
Uh...

49
00:07:29,303 --> 00:07:30,907
Where... Where's my card?

50
00:07:30,942 --> 00:07:32,205
It's in the machine.

51
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,075
Oh, my God. Where's my...

52
00:07:34,110 --> 00:07:36,011
Brad?

53
00:07:37,146 --> 00:07:39,146
Someone stole my debit card.

54
00:07:39,181 --> 00:07:41,016
It's-it's still in the AT...

55
00:07:41,051 --> 00:07:43,216
- Help!
- No, no, no, no!

56
00:07:43,251 --> 00:07:44,921
- Dude, dude! No, no, no.
- Whoa.

57
00:07:44,956 --> 00:07:47,957
No. -Dude, dude! You have
headshots in the morning.

58
00:07:47,992 --> 00:07:49,728
He just stole her purse, man!

59
00:07:55,098 --> 00:07:58,264
Look, she's got her purse.

60
00:07:59,267 --> 00:08:01,938
But it was right there.

61
00:08:04,338 --> 00:08:08,241
I'm sorry to bother y'all,
but...

62
00:08:08,276 --> 00:08:09,946
did one of y'all
lose an earring?

63
00:08:09,981 --> 00:08:12,751
Oh, my God, yes!

64
00:08:12,786 --> 00:08:15,248
I saw it on my way over
to meet my friend here.

65
00:08:15,283 --> 00:08:17,217
And let me just say,
I know it ain't his.

66
00:08:17,252 --> 00:08:19,219
Oh, my God, thank you.

67
00:08:19,254 --> 00:08:22,860
I would've been wearing one
earring like a freakin' pirate.

68
00:08:27,064 --> 00:08:29,229
By any chance, are you all
going to get some food?

69
00:08:29,264 --> 00:08:30,967
Yeah.

70
00:08:31,002 --> 00:08:33,200
There's a barbecue spot
that just opened on La Brea.

71
00:08:33,235 --> 00:08:34,740
My cousin runs it.

72
00:08:34,775 --> 00:08:36,874
They got a killer review
in the <i>LA Weekly.</i>

73
00:08:36,909 --> 00:08:38,744
I don't know anything
about that.

74
00:08:38,779 --> 00:08:43,342
All I know is they pull pork
just like my grandma used to.

75
00:08:44,345 --> 00:08:45,883
I love pork.

76
00:08:45,918 --> 00:08:47,753
You tell them Roger sent you,

77
00:08:47,788 --> 00:08:49,920
and they'll bring out
the good stuff. -Thanks, man.

78
00:08:51,220 --> 00:08:53,825
Hey, uh...

79
00:08:53,860 --> 00:08:55,794
no hard feelings, man.

80
00:08:55,829 --> 00:08:57,829
Yeah, no. Yeah.

81
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,809
- You good?

82
00:09:10,844 --> 00:09:15,880
Yeah, I c-- I could've sworn
that I had her bag.

83
00:09:15,915 --> 00:09:17,948
Let's get off the street.

84
00:09:19,754 --> 00:09:21,820
You know, these white
folks looking at you crazy,

85
00:09:21,855 --> 00:09:24,284
- that doesn't bother you?
It's no big deal.

86
00:09:24,319 --> 00:09:27,320
- It's a goddamn menace.
- It's-it's annoying.

87
00:09:27,355 --> 00:09:29,729
People looking at me
like I'm...

88
00:09:29,764 --> 00:09:31,390
whatever exactly
they think that I am.

89
00:09:31,425 --> 00:09:34,063
But, you know, it-it's not like
it happens every day.

90
00:09:34,098 --> 00:09:35,394
So you saying
people don't look at you

91
00:09:35,429 --> 00:09:37,033
like that every day?

92
00:09:37,068 --> 00:09:38,936
Well, that happens every day,

93
00:09:38,971 --> 00:09:40,905
you know,
if I go outside or whatever,

94
00:09:40,940 --> 00:09:42,335
but it doesn't escalate
every day

95
00:09:42,370 --> 00:09:44,271
is what I-- is what I'm saying.

96
00:09:44,306 --> 00:09:45,943
Is that so?

97
00:09:45,978 --> 00:09:47,307
I'm not living in fear.

98
00:09:47,342 --> 00:09:50,079
I mean, is there fear?

99
00:09:50,114 --> 00:09:51,718
Yeah.

100
00:09:51,753 --> 00:09:53,786
Am I living in it?

101
00:09:56,956 --> 00:09:59,253
- No?
- What?

102
00:09:59,288 --> 00:10:01,959
You were just explaining
how none of this affects you.

103
00:10:01,994 --> 00:10:05,160
I just, uh...

104
00:10:05,195 --> 00:10:07,734
try not to think about it,
I guess.

105
00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:15,467
Look, I don't want
to waste your time, Aren,

106
00:10:15,502 --> 00:10:17,139
but I saw you at the gallery.

107
00:10:17,174 --> 00:10:19,845
Right, yeah.
You were at the bar.

108
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,309
And I followed you because
I think you're very talented.

109
00:10:22,344 --> 00:10:25,180
- My work?
- Uh, you mean the yarn thing?

110
00:10:25,215 --> 00:10:26,819
No, that didn't make
no kind of sense.

111
00:10:26,854 --> 00:10:28,381
But you?

112
00:10:28,416 --> 00:10:32,022
You I get, and I want
to take you to a job interview.

113
00:10:32,057 --> 00:10:34,156
Oh, no, I don't know anything
about bartending.

114
00:10:34,191 --> 00:10:36,158
Second job.
You need money, right?

115
00:10:36,193 --> 00:10:38,930
I need the yarn store to change
its return policy.

116
00:10:38,965 --> 00:10:40,492
- Can it do that?
- Yeah.

117
00:10:40,527 --> 00:10:43,033
- What?
- I mean, it pays good.

118
00:10:44,135 --> 00:10:45,739
What is it exactly?

119
00:10:45,774 --> 00:10:48,005
Officially,
it's a client services firm,

120
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,174
but unofficially,
we saving the damn world.

121
00:10:54,376 --> 00:10:55,980
I don't really understand.

122
00:10:56,015 --> 00:10:57,113
It's easier to show you.

123
00:10:57,148 --> 00:10:58,180
- Here.
- Now?

124
00:10:58,215 --> 00:10:59,753
Yeah.

125
00:10:59,788 --> 00:11:01,788
Okay. -You got
any medical conditions?

126
00:11:01,823 --> 00:11:03,889
- Heart disease? Eczema?
- What?

127
00:11:03,924 --> 00:11:05,286
N-No. Why would that...

128
00:11:09,831 --> 00:11:11,391
What? Hmm?

129
00:11:11,426 --> 00:11:13,162
- This way.
- Where are we?

130
00:11:14,330 --> 00:11:16,231
D-Did I just black out?

131
00:11:16,266 --> 00:11:17,903
I moved us a little.

132
00:11:17,938 --> 00:11:19,135
- You moved-- What?

133
00:11:19,170 --> 00:11:20,972
Hey, yo, wait, wait.

134
00:11:21,007 --> 00:11:22,908
Hey, Roger.

135
00:11:28,311 --> 00:11:30,278
How y'all doing?

136
00:11:53,336 --> 00:11:55,171
The hell is going on?!

137
00:11:55,206 --> 00:11:57,877
Now, I'm probably supposed to
start slower with all of this,

138
00:11:57,912 --> 00:12:01,012
but there's a recruiting class
starting right now,

139
00:12:01,047 --> 00:12:03,212
and we got to get you in it.

140
00:12:03,247 --> 00:12:04,576
Recruiting for what?

141
00:12:06,921 --> 00:12:09,020
Welcome...

142
00:12:09,055 --> 00:12:13,222
to the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

143
00:12:13,257 --> 00:12:16,258
Over the next few days,
we'll introduce you to our work

144
00:12:16,293 --> 00:12:20,295
and determine if any of you
are fit for membership.

145
00:12:20,330 --> 00:12:25,069
Now, since every education
starts with the classics,

146
00:12:25,104 --> 00:12:26,499
let's take a look at

147
00:12:26,534 --> 00:12:29,843
some of our most accomplished
predecessors.

148
00:12:29,878 --> 00:12:34,573
James Crampton, Savannah, 1923.

149
00:12:37,248 --> 00:12:40,018
Watch his approach to the work.

150
00:12:55,904 --> 00:12:58,234
Well, that's
a peculiar shot, suh.

151
00:13:00,634 --> 00:13:02,073
Where'd you come from?

152
00:13:02,108 --> 00:13:04,306
Oh, I was just
passing through, suh.

153
00:13:04,341 --> 00:13:08,079
Or should I say Mr. Avery?

154
00:13:08,114 --> 00:13:09,641
Hey.

155
00:13:09,676 --> 00:13:11,951
How'd you know my name?

156
00:13:11,986 --> 00:13:13,480
Well...

157
00:13:13,515 --> 00:13:16,285
everybody in the state
of Georgia who like billiards

158
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,254
knows Beauregard Avery.

159
00:13:18,289 --> 00:13:23,160
Is it true that you once
snapped your cue on the break

160
00:13:23,195 --> 00:13:26,427
then ran the table
with one of the splinters?

161
00:13:26,462 --> 00:13:29,562
I haven't played
since... the war.

162
00:13:31,269 --> 00:13:33,302
You done lost your stroke.

163
00:13:33,337 --> 00:13:36,074
- Excuse me?
- Uh, billiard stroke, suh.

164
00:13:36,109 --> 00:13:40,914
You know, they say
a man's grip on his cue...

165
00:13:40,949 --> 00:13:42,982
is like his grip on life.

166
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,546
Let me see how you holding it.

167
00:13:50,684 --> 00:13:54,587
Now, see, you thinking 'bout
whether you gon' miss.

168
00:13:56,195 --> 00:13:59,163
Maybe you missed a little bit
in your life.

169
00:14:00,529 --> 00:14:03,937
But you can't
think on that now.

170
00:14:03,972 --> 00:14:08,469
Now you gots to just
close your eyes

171
00:14:08,504 --> 00:14:10,570
and get your stroke back.

172
00:14:17,645 --> 00:14:20,250
Not bad, Mr. Avery.

173
00:14:20,285 --> 00:14:22,153
Not bad.

174
00:14:22,188 --> 00:14:25,552
Now, obviously, you'll be using
a more contemporary dialect

175
00:14:25,587 --> 00:14:29,160
and a lot of other innovations
we've made since Jim's time.

176
00:14:29,195 --> 00:14:33,098
But he was a master
of the fundamentals.

177
00:14:33,133 --> 00:14:37,333
So, what did you notice about
Jim's approach to the work?

178
00:14:37,368 --> 00:14:40,336
He doesn't make it
about himself.

179
00:14:40,371 --> 00:14:42,107
It's always about the client.

180
00:14:46,146 --> 00:14:48,278
- Client service first.

181
00:14:48,313 --> 00:14:49,345
What else?

182
00:14:49,380 --> 00:14:51,380
He's really friendly.

183
00:14:51,415 --> 00:14:53,316
That's crucial.

184
00:14:56,486 --> 00:14:59,190
- Anything else?
- He's wearing suspenders.

185
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,098
Okay. Let's take a look
at another one.

186
00:15:06,133 --> 00:15:11,037
Marcus Dunham, 1955.

187
00:15:12,535 --> 00:15:15,338
GUARD
Dead man walking!

188
00:15:15,373 --> 00:15:17,307
This isn't right, Marcus.

189
00:15:17,342 --> 00:15:20,541
Well, boss, it ain't about
the life leaving this world.

190
00:15:20,576 --> 00:15:23,049
It's about the life
coming into it.

191
00:15:23,084 --> 00:15:24,512
What do you mean?

192
00:15:24,547 --> 00:15:25,777
I know that you and the missus

193
00:15:25,812 --> 00:15:28,417
been having trouble
making life.

194
00:15:28,452 --> 00:15:30,419
I'm just barely scraping by
in this job,

195
00:15:30,454 --> 00:15:33,257
so it's hard to go home
and feel like a man.

196
00:15:33,292 --> 00:15:35,127
Now, you listen here, boss.

197
00:15:35,162 --> 00:15:36,425
Who snuck me that harmonica

198
00:15:36,460 --> 00:15:38,361
so I could speak my soul
fore I go?

199
00:15:38,396 --> 00:15:40,297
- I did, but...
- That took courage.

200
00:15:40,332 --> 00:15:41,727
That was done by a man.

201
00:15:41,762 --> 00:15:44,268
So when Mrs. Bossman
look at you tonight,

202
00:15:44,303 --> 00:15:45,467
know that she looking at

203
00:15:45,502 --> 00:15:47,799
the greatest man
in Kennebec County.

204
00:16:11,660 --> 00:16:13,429
What about this one?

205
00:16:16,599 --> 00:16:17,730
Anybody else?

206
00:16:17,765 --> 00:16:19,732
The spiritual was a nice touch.

207
00:16:19,767 --> 00:16:21,536
Perceived authenticity.

208
00:16:21,571 --> 00:16:25,606
Your interests and hobbies
have to be authentically Black

209
00:16:25,641 --> 00:16:27,773
as understood by the culture.

210
00:16:27,808 --> 00:16:32,151
We're showing the client
the parts of ourselves

211
00:16:32,186 --> 00:16:34,450
that make them feel good.

212
00:16:36,421 --> 00:16:38,058
And nothing more.

213
00:16:45,727 --> 00:16:48,662
Nope! Nope!

214
00:16:51,271 --> 00:16:52,765
Mm-mm.

215
00:17:09,784 --> 00:17:11,322
No, I'm sorry.

216
00:17:11,357 --> 00:17:13,423
You can't conjure yourself
a steak dinner.

217
00:17:13,458 --> 00:17:15,788
Magic only works
in the service of clients.

218
00:17:15,823 --> 00:17:17,328
So if he's dieting,
you're dieting.

219
00:17:17,363 --> 00:17:19,198
Mm-hmm. Uh, right.

220
00:17:19,233 --> 00:17:21,266
If she knows that much, you'll
have to do a memory spell.

221
00:17:21,301 --> 00:17:22,597
Mind if I take control

222
00:17:22,632 --> 00:17:23,796
of your powers remotely?

223
00:17:23,831 --> 00:17:26,469
Anything medical
requires physical touch.

224
00:17:26,504 --> 00:17:28,603
Even if he's sweaty, yes.

225
00:17:28,638 --> 00:17:31,375
No, that's me
controlling your powers.

226
00:17:32,741 --> 00:17:34,543
This is nice. Yeah.
I like it.

227
00:17:34,578 --> 00:17:36,677
- Not too tight?
Not too tight, no.

228
00:17:36,712 --> 00:17:38,283
Cause it's got to be nostalgic,

229
00:17:38,318 --> 00:17:39,614
but it can't be
too sharecropper.

230
00:17:39,649 --> 00:17:41,352
Oh, no, of course not.

231
00:17:41,387 --> 00:17:43,453
We're not doing <i>Roots.</i>

232
00:17:43,488 --> 00:17:45,554
- ♪ ♪

233
00:17:48,724 --> 00:17:50,790
♪ Like a vice grip
on my heart... ♪

234
00:17:52,299 --> 00:17:53,463
How goes?

235
00:17:54,499 --> 00:17:57,368
It's...
it's really interesting.

236
00:17:57,403 --> 00:17:58,699
It's, um--

237
00:17:58,734 --> 00:18:01,438
You know, the name needs
a little updating,

238
00:18:01,473 --> 00:18:04,276
maybe like
"Magical Black People" or--

239
00:18:04,311 --> 00:18:05,772
I guess that doesn't have
the same ring, but, uh...

240
00:18:05,807 --> 00:18:07,510
What are you trying to say?

241
00:18:08,810 --> 00:18:11,778
I'm not sure this is for me.

242
00:18:16,686 --> 00:18:18,686
It really has
nothing to do with you,

243
00:18:18,721 --> 00:18:21,623
and-and I'm sure the work makes
a ton of sense for you guys.

244
00:18:21,658 --> 00:18:24,428
It just seems, you know,
for my personal taste...

245
00:18:24,463 --> 00:18:26,892
It's a little, um...

246
00:18:26,927 --> 00:18:29,499
- Please take me home.
- You ain't going home.

247
00:18:35,441 --> 00:18:37,309
Holy shit.

248
00:18:40,875 --> 00:18:42,479
It's bigger than you.

249
00:18:42,514 --> 00:18:44,778
We've been around
since before this was...

250
00:18:44,813 --> 00:18:45,845
Is this...?

251
00:18:47,585 --> 00:18:48,683
Monticello.

252
00:18:48,718 --> 00:18:50,421
- What?
- Yeah.

253
00:18:50,456 --> 00:18:51,587
Secret wing.

254
00:18:51,622 --> 00:18:53,490
Oh, okay.

255
00:18:53,525 --> 00:18:56,592
- The truth is, Aren...
- I'm in Virginia?

256
00:18:56,627 --> 00:18:58,561
...you've got talent.

257
00:18:59,762 --> 00:19:01,894
Sorry, the building is gone.

258
00:19:01,929 --> 00:19:02,895
Yeah.

259
00:19:02,930 --> 00:19:04,666
And talent like yours

260
00:19:04,701 --> 00:19:06,569
can do more to help Black
people than a hundred marches.

261
00:19:06,604 --> 00:19:08,472
How?

262
00:19:09,904 --> 00:19:11,508
It's easier if I show you.

263
00:19:11,543 --> 00:19:13,807
No, no, no.
Last time you said that...

264
00:19:16,713 --> 00:19:21,980
Aren, what's the most dangerous
animal on the planet?

265
00:19:22,015 --> 00:19:23,652
- Sharks.
- White people.

266
00:19:23,687 --> 00:19:25,522
When are white people
most dangerous?

267
00:19:25,557 --> 00:19:27,887
When they're teamed up
with sharks.

268
00:19:27,922 --> 00:19:29,328
When they feel uncomfortable.

269
00:19:29,363 --> 00:19:30,593
Okay, were sharks
a part of it or...

270
00:19:30,628 --> 00:19:31,924
White people
feeling uncomfortable

271
00:19:31,959 --> 00:19:33,860
precedes a lot
of bad stuff for us.

272
00:19:33,895 --> 00:19:35,796
White people move into
a neighborhood,

273
00:19:35,831 --> 00:19:38,469
they feel uncomfortable:
gentrification.

274
00:19:38,504 --> 00:19:40,801
- Okay.
- White cop sees a Black man,

275
00:19:40,836 --> 00:19:42,671
feels uncomfortable:
another shooting.

276
00:19:42,706 --> 00:19:45,036
Was a time when all you had
to do was look at a white man

277
00:19:45,071 --> 00:19:46,510
and make him uncomfortable.

278
00:19:46,545 --> 00:19:47,742
That was pretty much it
for you.

279
00:19:47,777 --> 00:19:49,480
Yeah, I get that.
I'm just not the...

280
00:19:49,515 --> 00:19:53,385
For some of us, the last thing
we see in this world

281
00:19:53,420 --> 00:19:55,420
is an uncomfortable white man.

282
00:19:55,455 --> 00:19:57,290
But I don't blame
white people for that.

283
00:19:57,325 --> 00:19:59,721
I blame their discomfort.

284
00:19:59,756 --> 00:20:01,327
That's why we here

285
00:20:01,362 --> 00:20:03,857
at the American Society
of Magical Negroes

286
00:20:03,892 --> 00:20:07,762
fight white discomfort
every damn day.

287
00:20:07,797 --> 00:20:11,502
We are the vanguard
of white relaxation.

288
00:20:11,537 --> 00:20:12,932
Black knights making sure

289
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:15,066
that they don't take it out
on a brother.

290
00:20:15,101 --> 00:20:18,575
Because the happier they are,
the safer we are.

291
00:20:20,678 --> 00:20:21,875
Wow.

292
00:20:25,012 --> 00:20:27,045
You see that cop over there?

293
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:28,717
Far as we know, he may be

294
00:20:28,752 --> 00:20:30,851
the next one to shoot
an unarmed Black man.

295
00:20:30,886 --> 00:20:32,985
Him?
- I didn't bring you here

296
00:20:33,020 --> 00:20:35,493
for sharks, Aren.

297
00:20:35,528 --> 00:20:37,594
I brought you here for this.

298
00:20:37,629 --> 00:20:39,497
<i>We are constantly monitoring</i>

299
00:20:39,532 --> 00:20:42,962
<i>the happiness of every
white person in America.</i>

300
00:20:42,997 --> 00:20:46,306
And when one gets
too unhappy...

301
00:20:47,474 --> 00:20:49,441
- ...they become a client.

302
00:20:49,476 --> 00:20:51,036
Excuse me, Officer?

303
00:20:51,071 --> 00:20:54,908
<i>But they won't know
they're a client.</i>

304
00:20:54,943 --> 00:20:56,481
<i>So you'll use</i>

305
00:20:56,516 --> 00:20:58,076
<i>- a white tears meter</i>

306
00:20:58,111 --> 00:21:00,551
<i>to get a reading
of their distress levels.</i>

307
00:21:00,586 --> 00:21:02,487
<i>- And it will also let you know</i>

308
00:21:02,522 --> 00:21:03,950
<i>when their distress</i>

309
00:21:03,985 --> 00:21:07,558
has returned to acceptable
white person levels.

310
00:21:09,056 --> 00:21:10,924
Man, I looked in the mirror
this morning,

311
00:21:10,959 --> 00:21:12,794
I swear to God,

312
00:21:12,829 --> 00:21:15,863
I look more like my father
than I look like myself.

313
00:21:17,768 --> 00:21:20,769
Well, it's like my grandmama
always used to tell me.

314
00:21:20,804 --> 00:21:23,739
There's only two fighters
you can't beat:

315
00:21:23,774 --> 00:21:25,576
Joe Louis and Father Time.

316
00:21:25,611 --> 00:21:27,380
I just want to know
I still have it.

317
00:21:27,415 --> 00:21:28,909
You know?

318
00:21:30,946 --> 00:21:33,111
We're thinking about
going to a club tonight.

319
00:21:34,818 --> 00:21:36,818
Like...

320
00:21:36,853 --> 00:21:38,952
from music videos?

321
00:21:38,987 --> 00:21:41,152
Really exclusive.

322
00:21:41,187 --> 00:21:43,528
He and I can get in.

323
00:21:43,563 --> 00:21:45,959
I mean, if you can...

324
00:21:45,994 --> 00:21:48,599
maybe you're not
as far gone as you think.

325
00:21:54,002 --> 00:21:55,738
I want to do that.

326
00:22:01,647 --> 00:22:03,009
Look, Aren,

327
00:22:03,044 --> 00:22:05,143
this is a one-night job.

328
00:22:05,178 --> 00:22:09,521
Nice, easy client like we use
in trainings or on holiday.

329
00:22:09,556 --> 00:22:10,786
But don't let that fool you.

330
00:22:10,821 --> 00:22:12,524
Black lives are depending
on this.

331
00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:14,856
Look, Roger, for me,
I don't think

332
00:22:14,891 --> 00:22:17,188
that keeping white people happy
is as big a deal

333
00:22:17,223 --> 00:22:18,761
- as you're saying it is.
- Oh, yeah?

334
00:22:18,796 --> 00:22:20,829
Why are you so nice?

335
00:22:22,228 --> 00:22:24,195
Because I'm friendly.

336
00:22:24,230 --> 00:22:25,537
Because white people
will kill you.

337
00:22:25,572 --> 00:22:26,901
Okay.

338
00:22:26,936 --> 00:22:29,167
And I think you recognize this
in some way,

339
00:22:29,202 --> 00:22:31,103
and now you're trying
to get out in front of it.

340
00:22:31,138 --> 00:22:34,579
Roger, if I were hyperaware
of white people, I would know.

341
00:22:34,614 --> 00:22:36,141
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

342
00:22:36,176 --> 00:22:37,813
Do you remember that white guy
that just passed us?

343
00:22:37,848 --> 00:22:40,145
- Yeah.
- You're blocking his way.

344
00:22:40,180 --> 00:22:41,784
I'm so sorry. I...

345
00:22:46,824 --> 00:22:49,594
- That's not nice.
- Let's try a little experiment.

346
00:22:49,629 --> 00:22:52,124
I want you to walk
in that crowd.

347
00:22:52,159 --> 00:22:53,631
Why?

348
00:22:53,666 --> 00:22:54,863
Well, it shouldn't be
a big deal to you

349
00:22:54,898 --> 00:22:56,535
since you so good
with white people.

350
00:22:56,570 --> 00:22:58,768
My mom's white.
I grew up with white people.

351
00:22:58,803 --> 00:23:00,935
And I'm sure that didn't
mess you up at all.

352
00:23:00,970 --> 00:23:02,805
So, I don't need to go.

353
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,235
You scared?

354
00:23:04,270 --> 00:23:06,006
- No.
- Then go.

355
00:23:06,041 --> 00:23:08,745
I-I don't want to go.

356
00:23:08,780 --> 00:23:10,241
- You're scared.
- Okay, you know, fine.

357
00:23:10,276 --> 00:23:11,517
I'll go.

358
00:23:11,552 --> 00:23:12,815
For you.

359
00:23:12,850 --> 00:23:14,487
Thank you.

360
00:23:52,692 --> 00:23:55,594
I know you can feel
their discomfort, Aren.

361
00:23:57,730 --> 00:24:01,567
It's the loudest thing
in every room you walk into.

362
00:24:02,570 --> 00:24:04,669
Probably has been
your whole life.

363
00:24:05,771 --> 00:24:09,740
What did you do to make them
look at you that way?

364
00:24:09,775 --> 00:24:12,776
And what are they going to do
to you next?

365
00:24:14,010 --> 00:24:16,241
White discomfort
is your nemesis, Aren.

366
00:24:16,276 --> 00:24:19,585
Stop running from it
and start listening to it.

367
00:24:20,588 --> 00:24:21,752
Hey, hey.

368
00:24:23,019 --> 00:24:24,722
What's up, fellas?

369
00:24:26,088 --> 00:24:27,626
Oh, man.

370
00:24:27,661 --> 00:24:29,793
This place looks awesome.

371
00:24:29,828 --> 00:24:31,256
There's no way I'm getting in.

372
00:24:31,291 --> 00:24:32,730
Have you seen me?

373
00:24:34,063 --> 00:24:35,997
- Give it a shot.
- It's not happening.

374
00:24:36,032 --> 00:24:38,637
It was stupid
to even come here.

375
00:24:38,672 --> 00:24:40,298
Ah! Stupid.

376
00:24:40,333 --> 00:24:42,575
What was I thinking?

377
00:24:42,610 --> 00:24:43,972
God, this is the outfit
that I pick.

378
00:24:44,007 --> 00:24:45,303
I'm like,
"Oh, I'm gonna go to the club.

379
00:24:45,338 --> 00:24:47,140
Let's get my club outfit
out of the closet."

380
00:24:47,175 --> 00:24:49,208
- I bought new shoes...
- Don't look at me, Aren.

381
00:24:49,243 --> 00:24:51,309
- Look at him.

382
00:24:51,344 --> 00:24:53,751
Only him.

383
00:24:53,786 --> 00:24:56,787
Put everything out of your mind

384
00:24:56,822 --> 00:25:02,925
and focus on
his pale-ass feelings.

385
00:25:03,994 --> 00:25:06,357
<i>As a member of the Society,</i>

386
00:25:06,392 --> 00:25:09,063
there's no more making sure
your hands are visible

387
00:25:09,098 --> 00:25:10,768
just in case

388
00:25:10,803 --> 00:25:12,836
or wondering if they're gonna
call the cops on you

389
00:25:12,871 --> 00:25:15,234
for doing
totally normal things.

390
00:25:15,269 --> 00:25:17,236
Now you'll know.

391
00:25:17,271 --> 00:25:21,108
You'll know exactly
how distressed they are

392
00:25:21,143 --> 00:25:23,242
and how to soothe them,

393
00:25:23,277 --> 00:25:26,344
<i>so you won't have to be afraid.</i>

394
00:25:33,155 --> 00:25:35,056
I see him.

395
00:25:35,091 --> 00:25:37,696
Then go and comfort him.

396
00:25:39,766 --> 00:25:41,359
They call me
a pencil-pushing nerd.

397
00:25:41,394 --> 00:25:42,965
Hey.

398
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,769
Rules are important.

399
00:25:44,804 --> 00:25:45,869
Listen.

400
00:25:47,268 --> 00:25:50,038
Doesn't matter
how they look at you.

401
00:25:50,073 --> 00:25:52,106
It matters how you look at you.

402
00:25:56,211 --> 00:25:57,617
Yeah.

403
00:25:58,785 --> 00:25:59,982
You're right.

404
00:26:09,026 --> 00:26:11,697
Hey. Can we get in?

405
00:26:21,137 --> 00:26:22,873
Actually, yeah.

406
00:26:24,041 --> 00:26:25,304
Yes.

407
00:26:26,340 --> 00:26:29,308
Guys, thank you.

408
00:26:29,343 --> 00:26:31,178
Now, let's do this.

409
00:26:34,315 --> 00:26:36,018
What did I just do?

410
00:26:36,053 --> 00:26:39,021
You made your world
a safer place.

411
00:26:39,056 --> 00:26:41,694
- I want to do that again.
- It's your job.

412
00:26:58,306 --> 00:27:00,438
Ladies and gentlemen,

413
00:27:00,473 --> 00:27:04,882
the president of the American
Society of Magical Negroes,

414
00:27:04,917 --> 00:27:06,213
Dede Booker.

415
00:27:34,540 --> 00:27:38,784
Do we seem like gods
to you, Aren?

416
00:27:39,787 --> 00:27:41,215
Uh...

417
00:27:41,250 --> 00:27:43,855
Flattering but untruthful.

418
00:27:43,890 --> 00:27:47,089
In reality, we are only
as mighty as we are united.

419
00:27:47,124 --> 00:27:51,423
You see, Aren,
our powers are collective.

420
00:27:51,458 --> 00:27:54,063
If any member
uses magic selfishly,

421
00:27:54,098 --> 00:27:56,362
fails to put
their client first,

422
00:27:56,397 --> 00:28:00,135
all our powers fail,
and we cannot fail.

423
00:28:01,270 --> 00:28:03,941
Every year of our existence,

424
00:28:03,976 --> 00:28:07,439
the life expectancy
of Black Americans has risen,

425
00:28:07,474 --> 00:28:11,311
and members of our society
live five years past that,

426
00:28:11,346 --> 00:28:13,786
which brings us on par with...

427
00:28:14,547 --> 00:28:17,515
...white nonsmokers.

428
00:28:17,550 --> 00:28:20,452
And the privilege
and responsibility

429
00:28:20,487 --> 00:28:24,291
was upheld by Rosie...
the Riveter's nanny

430
00:28:24,326 --> 00:28:26,524
and Crispus Attucks.

431
00:28:26,559 --> 00:28:29,131
He really took one
for the team.

432
00:28:29,166 --> 00:28:33,036
And we can't forget Nancy Green
and her trademark syrup

433
00:28:33,071 --> 00:28:35,434
that funds our work today.

434
00:28:37,174 --> 00:28:40,505
So, understanding
this noble burden,

435
00:28:40,540 --> 00:28:42,111
will you join?

436
00:28:45,314 --> 00:28:46,918
Yes.

437
00:28:46,953 --> 00:28:49,151
Well, I officially welcome you

438
00:28:49,186 --> 00:28:53,056
to the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

439
00:29:28,093 --> 00:29:30,423
- You ready?
- Oh, wow.

440
00:29:32,295 --> 00:29:34,130
Um...

441
00:29:34,165 --> 00:29:35,395
Yeah.

442
00:29:53,987 --> 00:29:55,613
- Thanks.
- Thank you.

443
00:30:17,703 --> 00:30:19,978
- Hello?
- Why aren't you here yet?

444
00:30:20,013 --> 00:30:22,376
Uh, yeah, I just, uh,
I needed a second.

445
00:30:22,411 --> 00:30:24,048
I have to brief you
on your first client.

446
00:30:24,083 --> 00:30:25,918
Also, why am I
looking at a table?

447
00:30:25,953 --> 00:30:28,118
Okay, I'll be right in
and we can talk.

448
00:30:28,153 --> 00:30:30,054
- I'm sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry.
-  It's okay.

449
00:30:30,089 --> 00:30:31,484
- I wasn't looking and...
- It's okay. It's fine.

450
00:30:31,519 --> 00:30:32,518
Sorry. -You're fine.
Don't worry about it.

451
00:30:32,553 --> 00:30:33,585
Can I buy you a new one?

452
00:30:36,062 --> 00:30:37,523
Uh, yeah. Okay, sure.

453
00:30:37,558 --> 00:30:39,096
- That's-that's nice of you.
- Okay.

454
00:30:48,668 --> 00:30:50,569
Oh, my God,
I was looking for coffee.

455
00:30:50,604 --> 00:30:53,308
I was looking to make sure that
I didn't spill coffee on you.

456
00:30:53,343 --> 00:30:54,947
- Yeah, no, I wouldn't...
- And I realize that totally

457
00:30:54,982 --> 00:30:56,410
looked like
I was checking you out.

458
00:30:56,445 --> 00:30:58,412
I was not checking you out.
I wouldn't do that.

459
00:30:58,447 --> 00:30:59,644
Yeah, okay.

460
00:30:59,679 --> 00:31:01,250
I-I was not doing that.
I promise.

461
00:31:01,285 --> 00:31:02,482
Okay.

462
00:31:04,684 --> 00:31:09,456
I would. I would do that
if it was, like, uh--

463
00:31:09,491 --> 00:31:12,525
You're beautiful,
and I-I would...

464
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,364
In a checkout-appropriate
situation, I would do that.

465
00:31:16,399 --> 00:31:18,432
Well, what would be
a... a situation

466
00:31:18,467 --> 00:31:21,072
where it's appropriate
to check me out?

467
00:31:21,107 --> 00:31:24,504
No, like a date or a...

468
00:31:24,539 --> 00:31:26,374
betrothal or--
I don't know what I'm saying.

469
00:31:26,409 --> 00:31:28,475
It's-- I was really
just looking for coffee.

470
00:31:28,510 --> 00:31:31,445
- It's okay.
- Thank you. Sorry.

471
00:31:38,058 --> 00:31:40,652
I don't... I don't believe you.

472
00:31:40,687 --> 00:31:43,160
- You don't believe me? Why?
- No. You just...

473
00:31:43,195 --> 00:31:45,030
You just said that
you weren't checking me out,

474
00:31:45,065 --> 00:31:46,658
and then you said I was pretty.

475
00:31:46,693 --> 00:31:48,462
So how would you decide
that I was pretty?

476
00:31:48,497 --> 00:31:50,200
There's a difference,
there's a difference between

477
00:31:50,235 --> 00:31:51,597
noticing how someone looks
and, like... -Okay. Okay.

478
00:31:51,632 --> 00:31:54,138
...skeevily, like,
looking them up and down.

479
00:31:54,173 --> 00:31:55,535
Okay, thanks
for letting me know.

480
00:31:55,570 --> 00:31:57,141
And I didn't say
that you were pretty actually.

481
00:31:57,176 --> 00:31:59,176
- I didn't say that.
- You did.

482
00:31:59,211 --> 00:32:00,474
- I just heard what you said.
- No.

483
00:32:00,509 --> 00:32:03,147
No, I said that you
were beautiful.

484
00:32:14,292 --> 00:32:15,522
Okay.

485
00:32:17,295 --> 00:32:20,131
- Okay.
- Yeah. No, I...

486
00:32:20,166 --> 00:32:21,264
Okay, I believe you.

487
00:32:21,299 --> 00:32:22,331
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

488
00:32:22,366 --> 00:32:23,563
It's a very nice thing to do.

489
00:32:23,598 --> 00:32:25,301
Not check you out?

490
00:32:25,336 --> 00:32:26,599
No, check me for coffee stains.

491
00:32:26,634 --> 00:32:28,271
That's...

492
00:32:28,306 --> 00:32:30,306
That's a very sweet thing
to do.

493
00:32:30,341 --> 00:32:33,078
Well, I'm very nice.
It's-it's, like, a flaw.

494
00:32:33,113 --> 00:32:35,476
Yeah? Says who?

495
00:32:42,749 --> 00:32:44,254
Oh, thanks.
I didn't even check myself.

496
00:32:44,289 --> 00:32:45,651
Yeah, am I good?

497
00:32:45,686 --> 00:32:46,718
Hmm?

498
00:32:46,753 --> 00:32:48,423
Am I coffee-free?

499
00:32:49,525 --> 00:32:52,427
Oh, I don't know.
I was just looking at that ass.

500
00:32:53,430 --> 00:32:55,100
Wow.

501
00:32:55,135 --> 00:32:57,135
- Terrible.
- Yeah, you like that?

502
00:32:57,170 --> 00:32:59,566
- I'm sorry.

503
00:33:01,603 --> 00:33:03,702
- Uh...

504
00:33:04,870 --> 00:33:07,442
Uh...

505
00:33:07,477 --> 00:33:09,114
I'm s-- I have to go.

506
00:33:09,149 --> 00:33:11,413
I'm so sorry.

507
00:33:11,448 --> 00:33:13,283
Oh.

508
00:33:13,318 --> 00:33:14,812
Sorry.

509
00:33:17,421 --> 00:33:19,586
Your first client
is a Jason Mundt.

510
00:33:19,621 --> 00:33:21,522
You'll be working with him
in graphic design,

511
00:33:21,557 --> 00:33:23,557
where we felt your background
in yarn and shit

512
00:33:23,592 --> 00:33:24,690
will come in handy.

513
00:33:24,725 --> 00:33:26,626
<i>Jason works at MeetBox,</i>

514
00:33:26,661 --> 00:33:28,793
<i>the most influential social
media platform in the world.</i>

515
00:33:28,828 --> 00:33:31,631
<i>Millions of white people
see his designs every day</i>

516
00:33:31,666 --> 00:33:34,832
<i>as they post and like and do
whatever else they do on there.</i>

517
00:33:34,867 --> 00:33:36,405
<i>You will be a deckhand.</i>

518
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:37,604
<i>That's one level below
a boatswain.</i>

519
00:33:37,639 --> 00:33:38,869
Come again?

520
00:33:38,904 --> 00:33:41,113
Spelled "boat" "swain."

521
00:33:41,148 --> 00:33:42,741
Yeah, but are we at sea?

522
00:33:42,776 --> 00:33:44,875
Well, they felt
normal job titles

523
00:33:44,910 --> 00:33:47,218
- were a bit too corporate.
- Okay.

524
00:33:47,253 --> 00:33:50,320
His meter jumped dangerously
high Tuesday 4:00 p.m.

525
00:33:50,355 --> 00:33:52,190
He was so upset
we considered sending in

526
00:33:52,225 --> 00:33:54,192
a team of
rapid response Negroes,

527
00:33:54,227 --> 00:33:55,556
but they were all my age

528
00:33:55,591 --> 00:33:57,789
and really didn't understand
what MeetBox did.

529
00:33:57,824 --> 00:34:00,693
So his morale is still
far too low.

530
00:34:00,728 --> 00:34:03,663
Your job is to figure out
what caused the jump

531
00:34:03,698 --> 00:34:06,402
and identify what he wants.

532
00:34:06,437 --> 00:34:08,140
There's a lot of research

533
00:34:08,175 --> 00:34:10,373
that if you spend
less time working,

534
00:34:10,408 --> 00:34:12,243
you're actually more productive.

535
00:34:12,278 --> 00:34:14,707
And that is why we've got
snacks, we've got games,

536
00:34:14,742 --> 00:34:16,610
we've got cots
if you want to take a nap.

537
00:34:16,645 --> 00:34:19,514
Oh, that's great. -Yeah,
we also have a laundry service.

538
00:34:19,549 --> 00:34:21,219
We've got a car wash.

539
00:34:21,254 --> 00:34:23,320
You know, basically
you could just sleep here.

540
00:34:23,355 --> 00:34:25,322
Do a lot of people sleep here?
You keep saying...

541
00:34:25,357 --> 00:34:27,918
- Oh, no. No, no.
- Okay, cool.

542
00:34:27,953 --> 00:34:29,590
Although I could use a nap.

543
00:34:31,396 --> 00:34:32,791
I'm fine.

544
00:34:32,826 --> 00:34:34,331
- This is Jason.

545
00:34:34,366 --> 00:34:36,333
You're gonna work together
a lot. -Hey.

546
00:34:36,368 --> 00:34:38,302
- Hey.
No, darn it.

547
00:34:38,337 --> 00:34:41,635
Um, I was hoping there was
a station right next to him,

548
00:34:41,670 --> 00:34:44,407
but there's not, so why don't
you come downstairs with me.

549
00:34:45,938 --> 00:34:47,872
- Oh, is this one spoken for?
- Hmm?

550
00:34:51,878 --> 00:34:53,944
No.

551
00:34:53,979 --> 00:34:56,584
Uh, why don't you
just settle in.

552
00:34:56,619 --> 00:34:58,322
Great.

553
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:02,920
Looks like we're neighbors.

554
00:35:02,955 --> 00:35:05,494
Yeah, I-I guess so.

555
00:35:08,697 --> 00:35:10,895
You like games?

556
00:35:10,930 --> 00:35:12,765
Guard-guard it.
Guard your goal.

557
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,338
- You better guard it.
Okay. I'm-I'm trying.

558
00:35:14,373 --> 00:35:15,933
You better guard it.
I'm close. I'm close!

559
00:35:16,969 --> 00:35:18,903
- Oh!
- Okay.

560
00:35:18,938 --> 00:35:20,476
- Damn.
- Yes.

561
00:35:20,511 --> 00:35:22,247
- The streak is real.
- Got me again.

562
00:35:22,282 --> 00:35:23,512
Three in a row.

563
00:35:23,547 --> 00:35:25,217
- Whew.
- You practice this, don't you?

564
00:35:25,252 --> 00:35:27,615
Yeah,
I got one of these at home.

565
00:35:28,585 --> 00:35:30,585
- Lizzie.
- Uh, hey.

566
00:35:31,588 --> 00:35:32,620
Hey.

567
00:35:32,655 --> 00:35:34,259
I...

568
00:35:34,294 --> 00:35:37,295
I... I-I...
I just started working here.

569
00:35:37,330 --> 00:35:39,396
That's cool. Oh, my God.
I-I've worked here for a while.

570
00:35:39,431 --> 00:35:41,530
That-that makes sense
why you're here. -Yeah.

571
00:35:41,565 --> 00:35:43,235
- And I'm...

572
00:35:43,270 --> 00:35:44,632
You guys know each other?

573
00:35:44,667 --> 00:35:46,403
- No. We just met.
- No, I mean, like, we--

574
00:35:46,438 --> 00:35:47,899
- I'm sorry. No, you go ahead.
- Sorry. No, uh, please.

575
00:35:49,738 --> 00:35:51,507
- Uh, I'm Aren, by the way.
- I'm Lizzie.

576
00:35:51,542 --> 00:35:53,971
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

577
00:35:54,006 --> 00:35:55,709
Um, did you get my notes?

578
00:35:55,744 --> 00:36:00,285
No, no, I had to... go to this,
like, HR training and...

579
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,287
That's fine, but we should
get it done tonight

580
00:36:02,322 --> 00:36:04,355
'cause then Masterson
might actually go home,

581
00:36:04,390 --> 00:36:05,818
which at this point is
kind of a human rights thing.

582
00:36:05,853 --> 00:36:07,325
JASON
Right. Yeah, no.

583
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,360
- No, yeah, I'll get it.
- Thank you.

584
00:36:10,660 --> 00:36:12,429
It was nice
to meet you officially.

585
00:36:12,464 --> 00:36:13,661
- Yeah, it's nice to meet you.
- So, I'll see you around.

586
00:36:13,696 --> 00:36:15,498
See ya.

587
00:36:19,570 --> 00:36:21,537
- So, uh, what's her story?
- Lizzie?

588
00:36:21,572 --> 00:36:23,605
She's kind of my work wife.

589
00:36:31,010 --> 00:36:32,845
- You okay?
- I don't know, man.

590
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,013
Like... (sighs) I can't get
this layout to work.

591
00:36:38,358 --> 00:36:40,853
- Hmm.
- What?

592
00:36:40,888 --> 00:36:42,459
Your stroke is
a little hesitant.

593
00:36:42,494 --> 00:36:43,625
I'm sorry?

594
00:36:44,628 --> 00:36:45,759
Your keystroke.

595
00:36:45,794 --> 00:36:47,431
- Oh.
- I mean, yeah.

596
00:36:47,466 --> 00:36:49,565
Yeah, I've--
I don't know what's going on.

597
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,061
I just-- Something's off.

598
00:36:51,096 --> 00:36:52,931
Like, I, uh...

599
00:36:54,066 --> 00:36:55,769
Yeah, you know,
it's like the saying goes.

600
00:36:55,804 --> 00:36:58,002
A man's grip on his...

601
00:36:58,037 --> 00:37:01,379
keyboard is like
his grip on life.

602
00:37:03,581 --> 00:37:06,516
- Who said that?
- Rosa Parks.

603
00:37:07,816 --> 00:37:10,553
- Really? When... was that...
- Yeah, my point is,

604
00:37:10,588 --> 00:37:12,819
something's going on
somewhere else in your life

605
00:37:12,854 --> 00:37:14,920
can show up in your work.

606
00:37:16,022 --> 00:37:18,528
Hmm. -But then again,
you're the boatswain.

607
00:37:18,563 --> 00:37:19,793
- What do I know?
- No. No, you're right, man.

608
00:37:19,828 --> 00:37:20,761
Something's definitely off.

609
00:37:20,796 --> 00:37:22,664
I just feel...

610
00:37:22,699 --> 00:37:23,962
- Feel like what?
- Shaky.

611
00:37:23,997 --> 00:37:26,030
- Mm.
- Like, I'm just not...

612
00:37:26,065 --> 00:37:27,735
You know, like, when
you're trying to do something,

613
00:37:27,770 --> 00:37:29,671
but you lost your keys
and you're like,

614
00:37:29,706 --> 00:37:31,541
"I'm trying to focus,
but where are my keys,

615
00:37:31,576 --> 00:37:32,674
where are my keys, where are
my keys?" -Ah, I feel that.

616
00:37:32,709 --> 00:37:34,544
So, that is not me.

617
00:37:34,579 --> 00:37:35,875
Like, I always know
where my keys are.

618
00:37:35,910 --> 00:37:37,877
They're in a bowl by the door.

619
00:37:37,912 --> 00:37:39,582
Okay.

620
00:37:39,617 --> 00:37:41,386
He's a perfectly fine designer,
but he's, like,

621
00:37:41,421 --> 00:37:43,014
totally convinced
that he's on the fast track.

622
00:37:43,049 --> 00:37:44,785
- Great. What else?
- He responds more to

623
00:37:44,820 --> 00:37:46,490
'90s hip-hop slang
than Uncle Remus.

624
00:37:46,525 --> 00:37:48,492
What about his Want?

625
00:37:48,527 --> 00:37:50,725
I mean, those are all
great observations,

626
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,628
but we need to find out
what he's missing.

627
00:37:53,598 --> 00:37:55,092
Honestly, I'm not sure.

628
00:37:55,127 --> 00:37:58,667
You know, best I can tell
is that, for some reason,

629
00:37:58,702 --> 00:38:01,131
his meter jumped
when his last project launched.

630
00:38:01,166 --> 00:38:03,969
Is he close to anyone at work?

631
00:38:04,004 --> 00:38:05,938
He has a work wife.

632
00:38:05,973 --> 00:38:07,808
So, spend some time with her.

633
00:38:07,843 --> 00:38:09,414
Get some intel.

634
00:38:09,449 --> 00:38:11,141
With her? Yeah.

635
00:38:11,176 --> 00:38:12,582
Yeah, I could do that.

636
00:38:21,494 --> 00:38:23,494
It's Lizzie, right?

637
00:38:52,756 --> 00:38:54,558
It's really good!

638
00:38:54,593 --> 00:38:56,461
It's a shambles. It's terrible.

639
00:38:56,496 --> 00:38:58,056
I feel like if I squint,
I can totally see

640
00:38:58,091 --> 00:39:00,124
- the Chrysler Building.
- Oh.

641
00:39:00,159 --> 00:39:02,500
It's supposed to be
the Empire State Building.

642
00:39:02,535 --> 00:39:04,062
That's what I said,

643
00:39:04,097 --> 00:39:05,701
- the Empire State Building.
- That's not what you said.

644
00:39:05,736 --> 00:39:07,098
Yes, it is.
You didn't hear me. -No.

645
00:39:07,133 --> 00:39:09,034
- Wow.
- What?

646
00:39:09,069 --> 00:39:10,002
There.

647
00:39:10,037 --> 00:39:11,806
You added jumpers?

648
00:39:11,841 --> 00:39:13,038
No, no.

649
00:39:13,073 --> 00:39:14,941
They're, like...

650
00:39:14,976 --> 00:39:16,679
They're, like, a couple.

651
00:39:16,714 --> 00:39:18,175
- You know, in the movies.
- Oh.

652
00:39:18,210 --> 00:39:20,111
That's really sweet.

653
00:39:20,146 --> 00:39:22,179
Hey.
Uh, nice. Chrysler Building.

654
00:39:22,214 --> 00:39:24,214
Hell yeah.

655
00:39:24,249 --> 00:39:25,622
Masterson wants you.

656
00:39:25,657 --> 00:39:27,723
Okay.

657
00:39:28,726 --> 00:39:30,154
I will see you, gents.

658
00:39:30,189 --> 00:39:32,530
All right.
- Watch them for me.

659
00:39:32,565 --> 00:39:33,894
You got it.

660
00:39:33,929 --> 00:39:35,566
- Good luck.
See you, guys. Bye.

661
00:39:35,601 --> 00:39:37,667
Yo, who took my tugboat?

662
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:42,804
Okay.

663
00:39:42,839 --> 00:39:44,036
Wow.

664
00:39:45,006 --> 00:39:46,236
She's great.

665
00:39:46,271 --> 00:39:47,974
- Yeah, she's cool.
- Are you kidding?

666
00:39:48,009 --> 00:39:49,481
Come on, man.

667
00:39:49,516 --> 00:39:52,748
She's-she's smart
and funny and she's--

668
00:39:52,783 --> 00:39:54,013
Have you seen her work?

669
00:39:54,048 --> 00:39:55,652
She's, like,
a ridiculous designer.

670
00:39:55,687 --> 00:39:56,950
Yeah. -She's, like,
the best designer here.

671
00:39:56,985 --> 00:39:59,557
Yeah, she's definitely
the golden child.

672
00:40:02,122 --> 00:40:03,825
You know, th-they're
actually saying that

673
00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:05,255
about you, too,
around the office.

674
00:40:05,290 --> 00:40:06,663
I hear that all the time about

675
00:40:06,698 --> 00:40:08,225
how amazing of a designer
you are.

676
00:40:08,260 --> 00:40:09,765
Thanks, man.

677
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,129
Yeah, y-you guys
are completely different.

678
00:40:11,164 --> 00:40:12,900
You're-you're actually--

679
00:40:12,935 --> 00:40:14,638
You-you work
really well together.

680
00:40:14,673 --> 00:40:16,200
- You think?
- Yeah.

681
00:40:16,235 --> 00:40:18,070
It's like you have such talent,
she has such talent.

682
00:40:18,105 --> 00:40:20,908
It's like,
it's like a power couple.

683
00:40:20,943 --> 00:40:22,811
Work-wise, you know.

684
00:40:26,179 --> 00:40:28,113
MeetBox is under fire,

685
00:40:28,148 --> 00:40:31,622
as new complaints emerge its
facial recognition technology

686
00:40:31,657 --> 00:40:33,624
fails to identify Black people.

687
00:40:33,659 --> 00:40:36,957
Critics say a lack of diversity
on the engineering team

688
00:40:36,992 --> 00:40:38,794
may have contributed
to the issue.

689
00:40:38,829 --> 00:40:40,697
And with public pressure
growing,

690
00:40:40,732 --> 00:40:42,732
MeetBox founder
Mick Morton has promised

691
00:40:42,767 --> 00:40:44,096
sweeping internal changes.

692
00:40:55,043 --> 00:40:56,878
- Ahoy. -Ahoy.
- Ahoy.

693
00:40:58,013 --> 00:40:59,551
When I dropped out of Harvard

694
00:40:59,586 --> 00:41:01,619
to build MeetBox
in my parents' garage,

695
00:41:01,654 --> 00:41:03,082
I remember thinking,

696
00:41:03,117 --> 00:41:04,853
"I hope they don't
pull the car in."

697
00:41:09,662 --> 00:41:11,024
I also remember thinking

698
00:41:11,059 --> 00:41:13,796
MeetBox had to be
a platform for everybody.

699
00:41:14,799 --> 00:41:16,799
Now, in the next few days,
you're gonna hear

700
00:41:16,834 --> 00:41:19,703
the media claim
that we have failed at that.

701
00:41:19,738 --> 00:41:22,607
You're gonna hear
outlandish accusations.

702
00:41:22,642 --> 00:41:24,103
"Mick's biased.

703
00:41:24,138 --> 00:41:25,874
"Mick's a racist.

704
00:41:25,909 --> 00:41:28,206
Mick hates
the entire nation of Ghana."

705
00:41:28,241 --> 00:41:29,944
That's not me.

706
00:41:29,979 --> 00:41:32,045
It's not who we are.

707
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,850
We are the same company that,
last quarter alone,

708
00:41:34,885 --> 00:41:37,820
partnered with
22 Black-owned vendors.

709
00:41:37,855 --> 00:41:39,954
We are the same company that,

710
00:41:39,989 --> 00:41:42,187
during the
George Floyd protests,

711
00:41:42,222 --> 00:41:44,222
suspended operations
for 12 hours.

712
00:41:44,257 --> 00:41:46,158
We're the same company

713
00:41:46,193 --> 00:41:49,997
whose flagship office
has a world cuisine station

714
00:41:50,032 --> 00:41:51,999
dedicated to the food
of the Caribbean

715
00:41:52,034 --> 00:41:53,671
and occasionally Africa.

716
00:41:53,706 --> 00:41:56,674
It's diverse, it's different,
it's yummy.

717
00:41:56,709 --> 00:41:57,906
We like it.

718
00:41:57,941 --> 00:41:58,973
That's who we are.

719
00:42:03,980 --> 00:42:05,947
But to make it crystal clear
who we are,

720
00:42:05,982 --> 00:42:08,785
I am thrilled to announce
that in the next 30 days,

721
00:42:08,820 --> 00:42:11,183
we are relaunching
the MeetBox brand.

722
00:42:11,218 --> 00:42:12,987
At a company-wide presentation,

723
00:42:13,022 --> 00:42:16,353
our top design team will pitch
a MeetBox makeover.

724
00:42:16,388 --> 00:42:18,322
We're gonna have a new logo,

725
00:42:18,357 --> 00:42:21,325
a new slogan
and a new commitment

726
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,998
to the exact same values
that got us here.

727
00:42:25,001 --> 00:42:27,133
- He's incredible.
- Hmm.

728
00:42:34,241 --> 00:42:37,077
So that's Jason's Want:
to be like Mick.

729
00:42:37,112 --> 00:42:38,342
Mick's a CEO.

730
00:42:38,377 --> 00:42:40,278
That makes Jason
a five-, ten-year client.

731
00:42:40,313 --> 00:42:41,851
And those are different.

732
00:42:41,886 --> 00:42:43,688
Less magic, more listening.

733
00:42:43,723 --> 00:42:46,152
Yeah, it's actually fun
and weirdly relaxing.

734
00:42:46,187 --> 00:42:48,220
It's like being a secret agent
with none of the danger.

735
00:43:05,844 --> 00:43:08,306
So, uh, I actually had
a question for you

736
00:43:08,341 --> 00:43:09,879
about Jason's work wife.

737
00:43:09,914 --> 00:43:12,013
Aren, just ask the girl out.

738
00:43:12,048 --> 00:43:14,048
- Can I?
- We're not monks, Aren.

739
00:43:14,083 --> 00:43:15,984
You're just scared to ask her.

740
00:43:16,019 --> 00:43:18,316
- I'm getting to it, all right?
- When?

741
00:43:21,123 --> 00:43:22,188
Tomorrow.

742
00:43:24,830 --> 00:43:26,192
Okay.

743
00:43:33,806 --> 00:43:35,003
- Dude.
- Whoa.

744
00:43:35,038 --> 00:43:36,103
Thank you.

745
00:43:36,138 --> 00:43:38,204
- You're welcome.
- Seriously, man.

746
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:39,777
It was like an epiphany.

747
00:43:39,812 --> 00:43:41,042
I can't believe
I didn't see it before.

748
00:43:41,077 --> 00:43:42,010
Sorry, what-what are
we talking about?

749
00:43:42,045 --> 00:43:44,078
Lizzie.

750
00:43:44,113 --> 00:43:46,146
- What?
- Don't play dumb, man.

751
00:43:46,181 --> 00:43:49,116
I know what you were doing,
going on about her.

752
00:43:49,151 --> 00:43:50,986
You were trying to...
you were trying to set us up.

753
00:43:51,021 --> 00:43:52,955
No. No, no, no.
That's not what I was doing.

754
00:43:52,990 --> 00:43:54,385
- I was...
- It's okay. It's cool.

755
00:43:54,420 --> 00:43:56,860
I'm grateful because
you got me thinking,

756
00:43:56,895 --> 00:43:58,862
"Why haven't we
gotten together?"

757
00:43:58,897 --> 00:44:00,226
And then it hit me.

758
00:44:00,261 --> 00:44:01,700
I'm into Lizzie.

759
00:44:04,232 --> 00:44:05,935
Hey, man, you were, um,

760
00:44:05,970 --> 00:44:08,267
you were pretty focused on
being like Mick.

761
00:44:08,302 --> 00:44:10,071
I am.

762
00:44:11,041 --> 00:44:12,502
You want both things?

763
00:44:12,537 --> 00:44:13,976
I do.

764
00:44:14,011 --> 00:44:16,814
- Isn't that cool?
- Yeah.

765
00:44:16,849 --> 00:44:18,915
Clarity is dope, man.

766
00:44:18,950 --> 00:44:20,444
Right.

767
00:44:20,479 --> 00:44:22,952
- He wants both things?
- Yeah, can he even do that?

768
00:44:22,987 --> 00:44:26,923
Yes, but a Double Want is not
ideal for your first client.

769
00:44:26,958 --> 00:44:29,453
Okay, great, well, then
I'm just gonna focus on work

770
00:44:29,488 --> 00:44:32,258
and let him
deal with his love life.

771
00:44:32,293 --> 00:44:34,392
You know, the company's
about to do the big rebrand,

772
00:44:34,427 --> 00:44:36,130
- and so I feel like...
- No.

773
00:44:36,165 --> 00:44:39,001
You're going to concentrate on
both things at once.

774
00:44:39,036 --> 00:44:41,168
And, Aren, I hope
I don't have to tell you this,

775
00:44:41,203 --> 00:44:45,436
but you cannot have a romantic
relationship with Lizzie now.

776
00:44:45,471 --> 00:44:48,043
Is that going to be a problem?

777
00:44:48,078 --> 00:44:49,913
Because if you don't
put Jason first,

778
00:44:49,948 --> 00:44:52,113
everyone's magic will fail.

779
00:44:52,148 --> 00:44:55,413
I was hoping that was, like,
a team-building thing.

780
00:44:55,448 --> 00:44:57,184
We're all in this together now.

781
00:44:57,219 --> 00:44:59,252
So you have to set up
Lizzie and Jason,

782
00:44:59,287 --> 00:45:02,761
and I have to drive around
this crotchety old white lady.

783
00:45:11,838 --> 00:45:14,135
Oh. Lizzie texted me.

784
00:45:14,170 --> 00:45:15,169
What should I say?

785
00:45:17,536 --> 00:45:19,536
Let's start with what
she said. -Okay, she said,

786
00:45:19,571 --> 00:45:22,880
"Can I get
that timeline, please?"

787
00:45:22,915 --> 00:45:24,981
What do you think it means?

788
00:45:25,016 --> 00:45:27,412
Hey. You two talking about me?

789
00:45:27,447 --> 00:45:30,085
- Hey.
- What's up? Hey.

790
00:45:31,924 --> 00:45:33,792
Oh, my-- Wait, are you?

791
00:45:34,586 --> 00:45:36,355
Yeah, actually, we were.

792
00:45:36,390 --> 00:45:38,126
We were just, uh, wondering
if you wanted to get a drink

793
00:45:38,161 --> 00:45:40,491
- with us after work, right?
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

794
00:45:40,526 --> 00:45:42,966
Oh.

795
00:45:43,001 --> 00:45:44,495
Okay, yeah. That sounds great.

796
00:45:44,530 --> 00:45:47,564
Um, as long as Jason
gets me that timeline.

797
00:45:48,534 --> 00:45:50,270
Yeah, it's-- Yeah, it's chill.

798
00:45:50,305 --> 00:45:52,305
Okay, great.
Let me know about drinks.

799
00:45:52,340 --> 00:45:54,208
All right.

800
00:45:56,377 --> 00:45:58,179
-  Thank you.
- Yeah, you're welcome.

801
00:45:58,214 --> 00:46:01,281
Geez. -I'll just, uh,
I'll make up an excuse

802
00:46:01,316 --> 00:46:03,217
last minute, and then
you guys are all set. -What?

803
00:46:03,252 --> 00:46:04,955
- All right?
- No, no. No, no, no, no.

804
00:46:04,990 --> 00:46:06,418
You... You're coming.

805
00:46:06,453 --> 00:46:09,091
- Why?
- Did you just see me?

806
00:46:09,126 --> 00:46:11,159
"It's chill"?

807
00:46:11,194 --> 00:46:12,226
- Okay.
- I've never said "chill."

808
00:46:12,261 --> 00:46:13,425
All right, yeah, okay, fine.

809
00:46:13,460 --> 00:46:15,592
I'll come for one drink,
all right?

810
00:46:18,135 --> 00:46:20,333
- Should I send the timeline?
- Yeah, send it now.

811
00:46:20,368 --> 00:46:22,071
Send it? -You should
probably send it now.

812
00:46:23,305 --> 00:46:25,635
<i>So Jason and I
worked on it for a week,</i>

813
00:46:25,670 --> 00:46:27,373
and then... -Yeah, and then...
and then Masterson

814
00:46:27,408 --> 00:46:28,880
fell asleep
right in front of me.

815
00:46:28,915 --> 00:46:30,376
-  Oh, my God.

816
00:46:30,411 --> 00:46:32,246
That's pretty funny.

817
00:46:32,281 --> 00:46:34,017
Your stories are
getting better.

818
00:46:34,052 --> 00:46:35,579
- It was good, right?
- Yeah, it's good.

819
00:46:35,614 --> 00:46:37,185
- I'm getting funnier.
- You're making my job easier.

820
00:46:37,220 --> 00:46:39,418
- Maybe.
- Yeah.

821
00:46:44,128 --> 00:46:45,424
Should we do another round?

822
00:46:45,459 --> 00:46:46,656
- Should we do one more?
- Yeah. -Yeah.

823
00:46:46,691 --> 00:46:49,263
- Yeah, let's do it.
- Yeah? Okay.

824
00:46:49,298 --> 00:46:50,660
- No, I got it.
- You got it?

825
00:46:50,695 --> 00:46:52,431
- All right, thank you.
- Thank you.

826
00:46:52,466 --> 00:46:54,565
ANCHOR
...country music superstar.

827
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,204
In other news, the fallout from

828
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,108
MeetBox's facial recognition
scandal continues.

829
00:46:59,143 --> 00:47:01,077
The technology required

830
00:47:01,112 --> 00:47:02,474
to access the platform
has prevented

831
00:47:02,509 --> 00:47:05,015
the entire nation of Ghana
from logging on

832
00:47:05,050 --> 00:47:06,643
for several days.

833
00:47:06,678 --> 00:47:08,183
Well, on the one hand,

834
00:47:08,218 --> 00:47:10,680
it's been great for
my productivity at work.

835
00:47:10,715 --> 00:47:13,023
But on the other hand,
it was quite racist.

836
00:47:13,058 --> 00:47:15,223
The growing outcry
made its way to social media,

837
00:47:15,258 --> 00:47:17,654
where the hashtag "Ghanagate"
has been trending...

838
00:47:17,689 --> 00:47:20,998
I'm so sick of this, this whole
facial recognition thing.

839
00:47:21,033 --> 00:47:22,230
God, I know.

840
00:47:22,265 --> 00:47:24,595
It was a mistake.

841
00:47:24,630 --> 00:47:27,367
Oh, no, I meant, like, I'm
just so sick of thinking about

842
00:47:27,402 --> 00:47:31,305
how we all work for these
people who are responsible.

843
00:47:31,340 --> 00:47:35,342
So what? So everybody who was
on that team is a bad person?

844
00:47:35,377 --> 00:47:37,245
- I didn't say that. Um...

845
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,379
Wait, did you--
Was that your last project?

846
00:47:39,414 --> 00:47:41,447
Uh, yeah, yeah.

847
00:47:43,990 --> 00:47:46,419
And we were doing our best,
you know, and...

848
00:47:46,454 --> 00:47:49,389
I'm-I'm sorry.
I forgot that you were on that.

849
00:47:49,424 --> 00:47:51,963
- No, it's... I don't care.
Yeah.

850
00:47:51,998 --> 00:47:53,294
I was just
blowing off steam about...

851
00:47:53,329 --> 00:47:54,493
People are being
really sensitive right now.

852
00:47:54,528 --> 00:47:55,494
You know,
it's a hot-button issue

853
00:47:55,529 --> 00:47:57,001
- right now.
- Yeah.

854
00:47:57,036 --> 00:47:58,200
That's totally
what I was commenting on.

855
00:47:58,235 --> 00:47:59,432
- Right.
- You're not a bad person.

856
00:47:59,467 --> 00:48:02,105
- Oh, not at all.
- Right. Right. Yeah, no.

857
00:48:02,140 --> 00:48:04,173
- I'm sorry.
- No, it's fine, it's fine.

858
00:48:04,208 --> 00:48:06,208
But, yeah, thank you.

859
00:48:06,243 --> 00:48:07,539
You're good.

860
00:48:07,574 --> 00:48:10,113
And, look, I mean,
would it have helped

861
00:48:10,148 --> 00:48:13,413
to have people of color
on the team?

862
00:48:13,448 --> 00:48:14,986
Maybe. Yeah.

863
00:48:15,021 --> 00:48:16,746
But...

864
00:48:16,781 --> 00:48:18,286
you know, it was
a really competitive project,

865
00:48:18,321 --> 00:48:19,683
and no people like you made it,

866
00:48:19,718 --> 00:48:22,554
so I don't know
what they want me to do.

867
00:48:26,725 --> 00:48:29,528
I think, uh, you shouldn't
beat yourself up over it.

868
00:48:29,563 --> 00:48:32,366
- Yeah. Exactly.
- That's the main thing.

869
00:48:32,401 --> 00:48:33,400
Yeah.

870
00:48:33,435 --> 00:48:35,105
Right.

871
00:48:35,140 --> 00:48:36,535
And I'm not.

872
00:48:36,570 --> 00:48:39,373
Like, I thought about it
for a few minutes

873
00:48:39,408 --> 00:48:40,671
I'm moving on.

874
00:48:40,706 --> 00:48:42,574
Cause you can't--
you cannot slow down

875
00:48:42,609 --> 00:48:44,213
and listen to the haters and...

876
00:48:51,486 --> 00:48:53,420
What?

877
00:48:53,455 --> 00:48:55,026
No, I should've said something.

878
00:48:55,061 --> 00:48:56,357
You did.

879
00:48:56,392 --> 00:48:58,359
You-you said exactly
what I was thinking

880
00:48:58,394 --> 00:49:00,229
- about the whole scandal.
- Yeah, and then

881
00:49:00,264 --> 00:49:04,629
Jason got all guilty, and I
just, like, completely bailed.

882
00:49:04,664 --> 00:49:06,037
I'm so stupid.

883
00:49:06,072 --> 00:49:07,764
No, don't... it's...

884
00:49:07,799 --> 00:49:10,206
You were trying to make him
feel better, you know.

885
00:49:10,241 --> 00:49:11,669
We both were.

886
00:49:11,704 --> 00:49:14,078
Yeah, well, now I feel worse.

887
00:49:14,113 --> 00:49:15,640
I mean, don't you?

888
00:49:15,675 --> 00:49:18,676
It's okay to...
pick your battles.

889
00:49:18,711 --> 00:49:21,052
That's the thing. I feel like
I'm not really picking.

890
00:49:21,087 --> 00:49:24,484
It just feels like this reflex.

891
00:49:25,619 --> 00:49:27,322
Okay, that doesn't make sense.

892
00:49:27,357 --> 00:49:28,719
No, actually that makes
perfect sense.

893
00:49:28,754 --> 00:49:31,755
It's like when...
when someone sneezes,

894
00:49:31,790 --> 00:49:34,494
how you say "Bless you"
without even thinking.

895
00:49:34,529 --> 00:49:36,397
Only then you look up
afterwards,

896
00:49:36,432 --> 00:49:39,301
and you're like, "What did I...
What did I just bless?"

897
00:49:39,336 --> 00:49:40,599
- Yeah.
- Right.

898
00:49:40,634 --> 00:49:42,832
Yeah.

899
00:49:42,867 --> 00:49:44,504
I don't know.

900
00:49:44,539 --> 00:49:46,803
It's-it's one thing
to not stand up for myself,

901
00:49:46,838 --> 00:49:50,147
but then when
I-I look over and I see

902
00:49:50,182 --> 00:49:53,183
that you're uncomfortable, too,
it's just...

903
00:49:55,847 --> 00:49:58,386
I should've said something.

904
00:50:01,358 --> 00:50:03,688
Thank you... for saying that.

905
00:50:03,723 --> 00:50:06,625
That's-that's really...

906
00:50:06,660 --> 00:50:07,725
That's really nice.

907
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:09,298
I don't have a lot of people

908
00:50:09,333 --> 00:50:11,432
that stick up for me, so...

909
00:50:13,700 --> 00:50:15,205
Well, I didn't
stick up for you.

910
00:50:15,240 --> 00:50:17,108
I just thought about it.

911
00:50:24,249 --> 00:50:26,117
Well, Lizzie pulled me
aside this morning

912
00:50:26,152 --> 00:50:28,185
and was rehashing
our conversation at the bar,

913
00:50:28,220 --> 00:50:31,122
and apparently I upset her.

914
00:50:31,157 --> 00:50:32,750
- Wait, what?
- I know.

915
00:50:32,785 --> 00:50:35,555
But you weren't upset, right?

916
00:50:35,590 --> 00:50:36,787
No, no.

917
00:50:36,822 --> 00:50:38,261
Good.

918
00:50:39,693 --> 00:50:41,561
- Wow.
- Right?

919
00:50:41,596 --> 00:50:43,431
Cause I obviously care
very deeply

920
00:50:43,466 --> 00:50:47,204
about this stuff, and I take it
really seriously, but...

921
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,438
Honestly, I didn't even know
she was, like, ethnic at first.

922
00:50:50,473 --> 00:50:53,870
So, like, don't come at me
when you're...

923
00:50:53,905 --> 00:50:55,377
you're me.

924
00:50:56,347 --> 00:50:57,511
You know?

925
00:50:59,746 --> 00:51:00,877
You gonna serve?

926
00:51:00,912 --> 00:51:02,846
Uh, yeah. Sorry.

927
00:51:04,850 --> 00:51:07,653
Um, are you and Lizzie
good, though?

928
00:51:07,688 --> 00:51:08,852
Oh, yeah.
I mean, she was basically

929
00:51:08,887 --> 00:51:10,326
flirting with me
by the end of it.

930
00:51:10,361 --> 00:51:11,855
Oh, yeah?

931
00:51:11,890 --> 00:51:13,923
Yeah, she does this thing
where she, like,

932
00:51:13,958 --> 00:51:15,199
touches my arm and...

933
00:51:17,203 --> 00:51:18,367
- Easy.
- Sorry.

934
00:51:18,402 --> 00:51:19,566
It's, uh...

935
00:51:19,601 --> 00:51:21,403
You got any more balls?

936
00:51:21,438 --> 00:51:22,536
- Yeah, I got one.
- Okay.

937
00:51:22,571 --> 00:51:23,801
<i>Our society began</i>

938
00:51:23,836 --> 00:51:25,638
<i>as an informal commitment</i>

939
00:51:25,673 --> 00:51:28,245
amongst Monticello slaves

940
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,677
to help each other avoid
harsh punishment.

941
00:51:31,712 --> 00:51:34,845
Now that I can see
white discomfort everywhere,

942
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,188
I'm starting to realize

943
00:51:37,223 --> 00:51:39,751
all of this stuff
that it does to me.

944
00:51:39,786 --> 00:51:42,259
Like, I apologize all the time.

945
00:51:42,294 --> 00:51:44,525
- You really should hear this.
- Oh, sorry.

946
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,197
See?

947
00:51:46,232 --> 00:51:49,464
And you were so right about

948
00:51:49,499 --> 00:51:52,236
how I've been aware of this
my whole life.

949
00:51:52,271 --> 00:51:56,570
Like, I was never really able
to explain my sculpture before,

950
00:51:56,605 --> 00:51:59,210
but I-I think it's about...

951
00:51:59,245 --> 00:52:00,343
Roger?

952
00:52:01,643 --> 00:52:03,643
R-Roger?

953
00:52:03,678 --> 00:52:05,381
Am I making sense?

954
00:52:05,416 --> 00:52:08,549
You haven't been making sense
for quite some time.

955
00:52:10,355 --> 00:52:11,849
Sorry.

956
00:52:15,426 --> 00:52:17,393
Lizzie, your...

957
00:52:17,428 --> 00:52:20,726
your work on the logo
has been just...

958
00:52:20,761 --> 00:52:22,695
- just great.
- Aw.

959
00:52:22,730 --> 00:52:24,532
I mean, it was
a team effort. I...

960
00:52:24,567 --> 00:52:27,832
Well, I know that you did
all the heavy lifting, so...

961
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,406
- I do.
- Thank you.

962
00:52:30,441 --> 00:52:32,705
- Yeah.
- Aw.

963
00:52:32,740 --> 00:52:35,378
I just want you to know
how great you are.

964
00:52:36,513 --> 00:52:37,809
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Yeah.

965
00:52:37,844 --> 00:52:39,811
It's just, um...

966
00:52:39,846 --> 00:52:43,749
our team is gonna be pitching
the logo to Mick himself.

967
00:52:43,784 --> 00:52:45,619
- Mm-hmm.
- And I'm gonna ask...

968
00:52:45,654 --> 00:52:48,457
I'm gonna ask Jason to do it.

969
00:52:49,625 --> 00:52:51,020
But it's...

970
00:52:51,055 --> 00:52:53,462
I'm sorry, that's my, um,
design, though, you know.

971
00:52:53,497 --> 00:52:54,727
No, I know.

972
00:52:54,762 --> 00:52:56,795
Uh, Jason's just better
in a room, and--

973
00:52:56,830 --> 00:52:58,698
- He's great in a room.
- Um, is he?

974
00:52:58,733 --> 00:53:00,997
- He's so charismatic and...
- He's loud and he's...

975
00:53:01,032 --> 00:53:03,901
Well, it's a loud...
company, Lizzie.

976
00:53:05,509 --> 00:53:07,674
Sorry, I just feel like
I've been, I've been asking you

977
00:53:07,709 --> 00:53:09,874
for something like this
for a long time. -Mm-hmm. Sure.

978
00:53:09,909 --> 00:53:13,317
And we... we talked about this
in my review. -Sure.

979
00:53:13,352 --> 00:53:14,879
This particular design
means a lot to me, and...

980
00:53:14,914 --> 00:53:18,553
Okay, well, I'm up for
Rear Admiral this year.

981
00:53:18,588 --> 00:53:20,588
No, Lizzie, Rear Admiral.

982
00:53:20,623 --> 00:53:22,656
- Okay, yeah, um...
- And we should just really

983
00:53:22,691 --> 00:53:24,020
support each other right now.

984
00:53:25,056 --> 00:53:27,056
- Yeah, so...
- I heard about that.

985
00:53:27,091 --> 00:53:28,827
That's great.

986
00:53:28,862 --> 00:53:30,598
It's a big presentation,

987
00:53:30,633 --> 00:53:33,700
and Jason's just a better fit
for this audience.

988
00:53:38,003 --> 00:53:40,608
- You'll be fine.
- No, that's okay. Um...

989
00:53:49,586 --> 00:53:51,355
Oh, Masterson's calling me in.

990
00:53:51,390 --> 00:53:53,016
I'll meet you
and Lizzie at the bar.

991
00:53:53,051 --> 00:53:54,589
All right.

992
00:54:04,832 --> 00:54:06,370
Hey.

993
00:54:06,405 --> 00:54:09,571
I'm sorry, I-I actually--
I have to head home.

994
00:54:09,606 --> 00:54:10,869
- What's wrong?
- Nothing's wrong.

995
00:54:10,904 --> 00:54:12,409
- You okay?
- Yeah.

996
00:54:12,444 --> 00:54:14,807
- Oh.
- Shit, um...

997
00:54:20,683 --> 00:54:22,045
Thank you.

998
00:54:25,050 --> 00:54:27,886
Look, um, we don't
have to go to the bar.

999
00:54:27,921 --> 00:54:31,395
We can just walk
in that direction and talk.

1000
00:54:32,992 --> 00:54:36,928
Sorry, I'm just-- I'm not
super, uh, fun right now.

1001
00:54:36,963 --> 00:54:38,468
It's okay.

1002
00:54:38,503 --> 00:54:39,832
No, I'm really, uh...

1003
00:54:39,867 --> 00:54:41,702
I'm no fun.

1004
00:54:42,837 --> 00:54:46,773
I think, uh, this is fun enough
for the both of us.

1005
00:54:47,743 --> 00:54:48,907
Oh, my God.

1006
00:54:48,942 --> 00:54:50,843
Is this a ring that says
"So swag"?

1007
00:54:50,878 --> 00:54:52,383
Okay, you love that.

1008
00:54:52,418 --> 00:54:54,044
- It's very fun.
- That was a gag gift.

1009
00:54:54,079 --> 00:54:56,013
- So...
- It's almost too fun.

1010
00:54:57,489 --> 00:54:59,390
-"So swag."
- Okay.

1011
00:54:59,425 --> 00:55:00,985
Um...

1012
00:55:01,020 --> 00:55:04,560
A short, un-fun walk?

1013
00:55:04,595 --> 00:55:07,057
All right.

1014
00:55:07,092 --> 00:55:09,466
Completely joyless.

1015
00:55:09,501 --> 00:55:11,468
<i>It's my job to support Jason,</i>

1016
00:55:11,503 --> 00:55:12,931
in more ways
than you can imagine,

1017
00:55:12,966 --> 00:55:14,163
but, I mean, I don't know.

1018
00:55:14,198 --> 00:55:16,033
I think
I'm a good designer also.

1019
00:55:16,068 --> 00:55:18,409
You're the best of us.
-  I mean, I don't,

1020
00:55:18,444 --> 00:55:20,070
I don't know if I'm the best,
but, like... -No, you are.

1021
00:55:20,105 --> 00:55:21,808
I went to RISD
with some great designers,

1022
00:55:21,843 --> 00:55:23,106
- and you're killing it.
- Thank you.

1023
00:55:23,141 --> 00:55:24,976
- I mean that.
- That means a lot.

1024
00:55:25,011 --> 00:55:27,451
Thank you. I...

1025
00:55:27,486 --> 00:55:30,487
Like, if I'm being honest,
I kind of...

1026
00:55:30,522 --> 00:55:32,753
I kind of think that, too.

1027
00:55:32,788 --> 00:55:34,854
And that's, like,
this whole thing for me.

1028
00:55:34,889 --> 00:55:38,627
Like, it's taken me years
to just be able to say, like,

1029
00:55:38,662 --> 00:55:41,025
you know, "I think,
like, I, as a person,

1030
00:55:41,060 --> 00:55:43,632
do not suck fundamentally."

1031
00:55:43,667 --> 00:55:45,667
And it's...

1032
00:55:45,702 --> 00:55:49,473
This place is supposed
to be a meritocracy, so...

1033
00:55:49,508 --> 00:55:51,739
Mick? Like, Mick is
a free market psychopath.

1034
00:55:51,774 --> 00:55:54,478
If there was a way to promote
with blood sport,

1035
00:55:54,513 --> 00:55:56,073
oh, my God, he'd be
throwing us in the pit,

1036
00:55:56,108 --> 00:55:57,712
- like, left and right.

1037
00:55:57,747 --> 00:55:59,516
And I'm just saying,
"Put me in the pit.

1038
00:55:59,551 --> 00:56:00,715
- Like, I'm there."
- Yeah.

1039
00:56:00,750 --> 00:56:02,849
"I'm committed.
I'm-I'm good."

1040
00:56:02,884 --> 00:56:06,149
Can I just say,
you're kind of a badass...

1041
00:56:06,184 --> 00:56:07,524
right now.

1042
00:56:07,559 --> 00:56:08,888
I mean, at all times,

1043
00:56:08,923 --> 00:56:10,461
- but specifically right now...
- Thank you.

1044
00:56:10,496 --> 00:56:12,023
...because I feel like--
I keep thinking this

1045
00:56:12,058 --> 00:56:13,893
because, uh, with me,
when I lose an opportunity,

1046
00:56:13,928 --> 00:56:15,862
I'm like, "Yeah, that's right.
That makes sense.

1047
00:56:15,897 --> 00:56:17,501
And goodbye
and thank you so much."

1048
00:56:17,536 --> 00:56:20,130
And you're-- right now,
you're, like... -Wait.

1049
00:56:20,165 --> 00:56:21,736
This...

1050
00:56:21,771 --> 00:56:22,836
I don't even have the word
for it. -But why?

1051
00:56:22,871 --> 00:56:23,837
That how much I don't have it.

1052
00:56:23,872 --> 00:56:25,201
You went to RISD. I mean...

1053
00:56:25,236 --> 00:56:27,170
- That's different.
- No, it's not at all.

1054
00:56:27,205 --> 00:56:29,205
That's like the Harvard
of finger painting.

1055
00:56:29,240 --> 00:56:31,075
That's how they sell it.
It's on all the pamphlets.

1056
00:56:31,110 --> 00:56:33,077
- Exactly. I mean, it's...

1057
00:56:33,112 --> 00:56:36,245
Yeah, it's amazing
to even get in there.

1058
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:39,248
- What did you study?
- Sculpture.

1059
00:56:39,283 --> 00:56:41,558
- You did?
- Mm-hmm.

1060
00:56:41,593 --> 00:56:43,219
You still do it?

1061
00:56:43,254 --> 00:56:45,859
No. Not really, um, anymore.

1062
00:56:45,894 --> 00:56:46,760
I, uh...

1063
00:56:48,732 --> 00:56:50,666
I used to love it,
but it's sort of similar

1064
00:56:50,701 --> 00:56:52,162
- to what you were saying.
- What?

1065
00:56:52,197 --> 00:56:55,539
I couldn't decide if I was,
like, really good

1066
00:56:55,574 --> 00:56:58,608
and other people didn't get me
or if I was, like,

1067
00:56:58,643 --> 00:57:02,546
a lunatic
making yarn sculptures.

1068
00:57:02,581 --> 00:57:04,845
- Yarn sculptures?
- I know, I know.

1069
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,144
Sculptures with yarn?

1070
00:57:07,179 --> 00:57:09,685
- Yeah.
- Do you have pictures?

1071
00:57:10,754 --> 00:57:12,919
- I do.
- Yeah?

1072
00:57:12,954 --> 00:57:14,789
Um...

1073
00:57:17,255 --> 00:57:19,255
- They don't really work in 2D.
- Oh, my God.

1074
00:57:19,290 --> 00:57:22,291
And they're too small
on this screen. -Are you sure?

1075
00:57:22,326 --> 00:57:24,634
- Let me see.
- Come on!

1076
00:57:38,650 --> 00:57:40,309
This looks so cool.

1077
00:57:40,344 --> 00:57:43,587
Yeah, you don't really get the
feeling that you get in person.

1078
00:57:44,953 --> 00:57:47,657
Uh, okay, so if it was, like,
right in front of me,

1079
00:57:47,692 --> 00:57:49,659
what would I be feeling?

1080
00:57:52,763 --> 00:57:54,191
Calm.

1081
00:57:55,293 --> 00:57:56,798
Quiet.

1082
00:57:57,999 --> 00:58:00,802
Kind of like how I imagine
meditating is supposed to feel

1083
00:58:00,837 --> 00:58:02,265
but you can never
actually pull off.

1084
00:58:02,300 --> 00:58:05,004
Okay, so it's-it's,
like, relaxing?

1085
00:58:05,039 --> 00:58:06,940
I'm doing a terrible job
of this.

1086
00:58:06,975 --> 00:58:08,975
- Why are you making me do this?
- No, you're not.

1087
00:58:09,010 --> 00:58:11,549
- You're not.

1088
00:58:12,684 --> 00:58:13,980
Yeah, um...

1089
00:58:15,181 --> 00:58:18,083
I think my pieces are about...

1090
00:58:18,118 --> 00:58:20,250
comfort.

1091
00:58:20,285 --> 00:58:21,625
Mm-hmm.

1092
00:58:21,660 --> 00:58:23,187
Not like my shoes
are comfortable,

1093
00:58:23,222 --> 00:58:26,762
but deep social ease.

1094
00:58:28,095 --> 00:58:31,701
Like, I saw this Wall Street
bro get mugged one time.

1095
00:58:31,736 --> 00:58:33,868
- Uh, okay.
- It's an example.

1096
00:58:33,903 --> 00:58:35,837
- Okay. Okay.
- Deep social ease.

1097
00:58:35,872 --> 00:58:38,807
Uh, but when this guy
got mugged,

1098
00:58:38,842 --> 00:58:42,646
he was so surprised.

1099
00:58:43,946 --> 00:58:46,210
Yeah, I mean, isn't that
kind of essential to a mugging?

1100
00:58:46,245 --> 00:58:48,245
But no, it was the way
he was surprised.

1101
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:49,620
It was...

1102
00:58:49,655 --> 00:58:51,248
Like, right before the mugging,

1103
00:58:51,283 --> 00:58:54,790
he was so sure that the world
wasn't gonna come for him

1104
00:58:54,825 --> 00:58:56,891
that it took him
a super long time to realize

1105
00:58:56,926 --> 00:58:58,629
that he was getting mugged.

1106
00:58:58,664 --> 00:59:00,994
I swear to God
that for a split second,

1107
00:59:01,029 --> 00:59:03,128
he thought the knife
was a present for him.

1108
00:59:04,703 --> 00:59:08,199
Like, in his mind, it was
more likely that a stranger

1109
00:59:08,234 --> 00:59:11,675
would give him
a random gift...

1110
00:59:11,710 --> 00:59:14,744
than that they would
try to hurt him.

1111
00:59:14,779 --> 00:59:17,175
Totally. Yeah.

1112
00:59:17,210 --> 00:59:21,047
And I-I want to know
what that would feel like

1113
00:59:21,082 --> 00:59:24,116
to have that expectation
of the world.

1114
00:59:25,856 --> 00:59:27,625
Just for a second.

1115
00:59:29,288 --> 00:59:31,794
Like I'm...

1116
00:59:31,829 --> 00:59:33,422
floating in salt water,

1117
00:59:33,457 --> 00:59:37,866
and I can just relax.

1118
00:59:43,038 --> 00:59:45,104
Well, what makes you
feel like that?

1119
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:51,715
Peruvian wool.

1120
00:59:55,215 --> 00:59:57,314
And...

1121
00:59:57,349 --> 01:00:00,383
when people are talking to me.

1122
01:00:00,418 --> 01:00:03,760
- Like, me specifically.
- Mm.

1123
01:00:03,795 --> 01:00:08,424
Not an idea of me but
the person that I actually am.

1124
01:00:11,737 --> 01:00:13,764
And when does that happen?

1125
01:00:16,841 --> 01:00:19,039
Is it weird to say now?

1126
01:00:32,989 --> 01:00:34,219
Sorry.

1127
01:00:35,761 --> 01:00:37,156
Hey. -JASON
You sitting down?

1128
01:00:37,191 --> 01:00:38,355
I was.

1129
01:00:38,390 --> 01:00:39,895
Dude, I get to pitch Mick

1130
01:00:39,930 --> 01:00:42,425
in front of the entire company, everyone.

1131
01:00:42,460 --> 01:00:45,032
- That's awesome, man.
- Like, I knew it was coming,

1132
01:00:45,067 --> 01:00:46,495
and this is it, it's here,

1133
01:00:46,530 --> 01:00:48,365
and I'm bringing you
along with me.

1134
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,466
And I just emailed you a temp,
so you think you can, like,

1135
01:00:50,501 --> 01:00:52,369
work your magic
like you did last time?

1136
01:00:52,404 --> 01:00:54,437
Yeah. You got it. No problem.

1137
01:00:54,472 --> 01:00:55,746
Thanks, man.

1138
01:01:00,951 --> 01:01:03,347
Sorry, I've got to go back
to work.

1139
01:01:05,219 --> 01:01:07,450
That's okay.
I should actually...

1140
01:01:07,485 --> 01:01:09,254
I should go, so...

1141
01:01:12,193 --> 01:01:13,995
Thanks for the walk.

1142
01:01:15,097 --> 01:01:16,228
Yeah, anytime.

1143
01:01:16,263 --> 01:01:18,131
- I'll see ya.
- See ya.

1144
01:01:30,915 --> 01:01:34,312
A farm subsidy's not welfare
because farmers aren't lazy.

1145
01:01:34,347 --> 01:01:36,083
- You know?

1146
01:01:45,325 --> 01:01:49,426
And that's why you have nothing
to be embarrassed about.

1147
01:02:35,210 --> 01:02:39,047
Normally, I would be
floating above you, godlike,

1148
01:02:39,082 --> 01:02:43,579
with magic powered by a hundred
Negroes working as one.

1149
01:02:43,614 --> 01:02:48,320
But today, Kyle here had to get
an actual chair for me.

1150
01:02:48,355 --> 01:02:51,928
Why? Because someone here
defied the Society.

1151
01:02:51,963 --> 01:02:55,195
Our powers shut down
because someone here

1152
01:02:55,230 --> 01:02:57,164
made it about himself.

1153
01:02:57,199 --> 01:02:59,034
- Who was it?

1154
01:02:59,069 --> 01:03:04,633
Brutus and Kyle have
had to carry this thing around

1155
01:03:04,668 --> 01:03:07,372
like common laborers.

1156
01:03:07,407 --> 01:03:10,309
Brutus went to Dartmouth.

1157
01:03:10,344 --> 01:03:12,212
He doesn't need this shit.

1158
01:03:12,247 --> 01:03:15,413
And Kyle went to...

1159
01:03:15,448 --> 01:03:18,416
Kyle?
Baby, where'd you go again?

1160
01:03:18,451 --> 01:03:20,352
Cornell, ma'am.

1161
01:03:20,387 --> 01:03:24,125
Still technically Ivy.

1162
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,490
Who did it?

1163
01:03:28,593 --> 01:03:30,626
Tonya?

1164
01:03:30,661 --> 01:03:32,595
Tell us of your crimes.

1165
01:03:34,038 --> 01:03:36,467
I told my client about himself.

1166
01:03:38,207 --> 01:03:39,602
Not much.

1167
01:03:39,637 --> 01:03:43,309
It was just like,
"Hey, you may want to revisit

1168
01:03:43,344 --> 01:03:45,410
that foundational paper
in our field."

1169
01:03:45,445 --> 01:03:47,379
Was that all?

1170
01:03:47,414 --> 01:03:49,986
And I may have sworn at him
a little.

1171
01:03:50,021 --> 01:03:52,087
- He's never read it.

1172
01:03:52,122 --> 01:03:54,221
He cites it,
but he's never read it.

1173
01:03:54,256 --> 01:03:56,025
I've heard enough!

1174
01:03:56,060 --> 01:03:57,994
I hereby ban you

1175
01:03:58,029 --> 01:04:00,997
from the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

1176
01:04:01,032 --> 01:04:03,296
You will receive
a mind-erasing spell

1177
01:04:03,331 --> 01:04:06,398
that will take away any and all
recollection of your time here.

1178
01:04:06,433 --> 01:04:08,664
And then, Tonya,

1179
01:04:08,699 --> 01:04:13,075
you will receive
the most severe sentence.

1180
01:04:13,110 --> 01:04:16,210
You will be forced to live
in America...

1181
01:04:16,245 --> 01:04:17,442
No.

1182
01:04:17,477 --> 01:04:19,048
...as a...

1183
01:04:19,083 --> 01:04:21,248
regular Black person.

1184
01:04:25,650 --> 01:04:27,518
We're working to get our powers
up as soon as possible.

1185
01:04:27,553 --> 01:04:29,223
Normally, Tonya would have
helped with that.

1186
01:04:29,258 --> 01:04:31,962
What a waste.

1187
01:04:31,997 --> 01:04:33,964
To Tonya.

1188
01:04:33,999 --> 01:04:36,263
She is...

1189
01:04:36,298 --> 01:04:38,034
was...

1190
01:04:38,069 --> 01:04:40,201
the smartest of us.

1191
01:04:40,236 --> 01:04:43,204
- She's not dead, though, right?
- Probably not.

1192
01:04:43,239 --> 01:04:45,701
But without our standard-issue
charm against hate crimes,

1193
01:04:45,736 --> 01:04:47,241
the worst could've happened.

1194
01:04:47,276 --> 01:04:49,309
Like she stepped
out of our door

1195
01:04:49,344 --> 01:04:52,015
and walked
straight into a Nazi.

1196
01:04:58,056 --> 01:05:00,386
I didn't mean to put you off
like that.

1197
01:05:00,421 --> 01:05:02,025
No, no, it's...

1198
01:05:02,060 --> 01:05:04,093
I don't recruit.

1199
01:05:04,128 --> 01:05:07,558
Usually, I don't work
with the new members like that.

1200
01:05:07,593 --> 01:05:09,626
Really?

1201
01:05:09,661 --> 01:05:12,398
Dede says I'm too stern.

1202
01:05:12,433 --> 01:05:14,400
- What?

1203
01:05:14,435 --> 01:05:17,436
That's what I said.
I'm likeable.

1204
01:05:17,471 --> 01:05:20,472
So, uh, why me?

1205
01:05:20,507 --> 01:05:22,309
I'll give you a compliment.

1206
01:05:22,344 --> 01:05:25,015
Watching you walk through
a room full of white people

1207
01:05:25,050 --> 01:05:26,775
is the most painful thing
I've ever seen.

1208
01:05:26,810 --> 01:05:29,316
Mm, thank you.

1209
01:05:29,351 --> 01:05:31,483
I called Dede right away
and said,

1210
01:05:31,518 --> 01:05:34,585
"I'm going to work
with this young man myself."

1211
01:05:36,259 --> 01:05:40,360
You know, uh, I just realized
I never actually, uh,

1212
01:05:40,395 --> 01:05:42,428
thanked you for helping me out
that night.

1213
01:05:42,463 --> 01:05:44,529
You don't have to thank me.

1214
01:05:46,236 --> 01:05:47,730
Still.

1215
01:05:48,733 --> 01:05:51,305
You can thank me
by doing a good job.

1216
01:05:56,741 --> 01:05:58,576
Okay.

1217
01:06:02,285 --> 01:06:04,285
Hey.
- Hi.

1218
01:06:05,552 --> 01:06:07,288
Is everything okay?

1219
01:06:07,323 --> 01:06:09,290
Yeah.

1220
01:06:09,325 --> 01:06:10,555
I mean, I was not okay
last night,

1221
01:06:10,590 --> 01:06:12,491
and you were really sweet
about it.

1222
01:06:12,526 --> 01:06:14,295
So it's your turn.

1223
01:06:15,298 --> 01:06:16,594
- Yeah, I'm good.
- Okay.

1224
01:06:28,773 --> 01:06:30,344
I can't believe
you haven't played this before.

1225
01:06:30,379 --> 01:06:31,741
Yeah, I know. It's-it's fun.

1226
01:06:31,776 --> 01:06:33,512
- Oh, my God.

1227
01:06:33,547 --> 01:06:34,843
- I know, right?
- Wow.

1228
01:06:34,878 --> 01:06:37,186
Look, he's, like,
all burned up.

1229
01:06:37,221 --> 01:06:40,288
You can, like, pick up
his lung. -Okay, yeah, let's...

1230
01:06:40,323 --> 01:06:43,357
Hey, actually, um...
I actually had a suggestion

1231
01:06:43,392 --> 01:06:45,293
on the Lizzie front.

1232
01:06:45,328 --> 01:06:47,295
Yeah, shoot.
I was thinking

1233
01:06:47,330 --> 01:06:49,627
that you could ask Lizzie
to present with you.

1234
01:06:51,169 --> 01:06:53,730
Why? I mean, I do the talking,
you run the deck.

1235
01:06:53,765 --> 01:06:54,863
What else do we need?

1236
01:06:54,898 --> 01:06:56,337
Well, Lizzie's
a great designer,

1237
01:06:56,372 --> 01:06:57,635
and, you know,
it's a nice gesture,

1238
01:06:57,670 --> 01:06:59,208
especially for someone
that you're into.

1239
01:06:59,243 --> 01:07:00,836
Yeah, but it's not fair.

1240
01:07:00,871 --> 01:07:02,541
No.

1241
01:07:02,576 --> 01:07:04,708
You'd still have plenty
of face time with Mick.

1242
01:07:04,743 --> 01:07:06,875
No, it's-- I mean,
it's not fair to Lizzie.

1243
01:07:06,910 --> 01:07:08,712
What-- I-I don't follow.

1244
01:07:08,747 --> 01:07:10,582
Well, I mean,
if you give somebody a break

1245
01:07:10,617 --> 01:07:12,320
and they haven't earned it,

1246
01:07:12,355 --> 01:07:14,322
you're just setting them up
to fail down the line,

1247
01:07:14,357 --> 01:07:16,258
so it's not fair to them.

1248
01:07:16,293 --> 01:07:19,459
So you don't think
Lizzie's earned it?

1249
01:07:19,494 --> 01:07:22,693
Well, I mean,
Masterson did come to me, so...

1250
01:07:22,728 --> 01:07:25,498
Yeah, true, but it could've
been either of you.

1251
01:07:25,533 --> 01:07:27,830
- Could it?
- Yeah.

1252
01:07:27,865 --> 01:07:30,239
Well, I mean, I can only
speak for me, and I got it,

1253
01:07:30,274 --> 01:07:31,900
so I must have put in
the right amount of work.

1254
01:07:31,935 --> 01:07:34,903
Well, what if Lizzie put in
the exact same amount of work?

1255
01:07:34,938 --> 01:07:36,773
But she didn't get it.

1256
01:07:36,808 --> 01:07:38,544
So the fact that you have it
is proof that you deserve it?

1257
01:07:38,579 --> 01:07:39,545
Kinda.

1258
01:07:39,580 --> 01:07:41,250
Pick up that rapier there

1259
01:07:41,285 --> 01:07:43,582
and just stab them in the nose.

1260
01:07:43,617 --> 01:07:46,915
I mean, sure, there's luck
and talent and stuff,

1261
01:07:46,950 --> 01:07:49,753
but I feel like mostly
people get what they work for,

1262
01:07:49,788 --> 01:07:52,195
and I got it, Lizzie didn't.

1263
01:07:52,230 --> 01:07:55,330
But don't other things
contribute to your success?

1264
01:07:55,365 --> 01:07:56,694
Like what?

1265
01:07:56,729 --> 01:07:58,729
Like if people treat you

1266
01:07:58,764 --> 01:08:00,797
like you're gonna be successful
your whole life,

1267
01:08:00,832 --> 01:08:03,668
don't you think that makes it
easier to succeed?

1268
01:08:03,703 --> 01:08:06,506
- Like, me specifically?
- Sure.

1269
01:08:06,541 --> 01:08:09,212
Well, I was gonna succeed,
so they would've been right.

1270
01:08:09,247 --> 01:08:10,840
Uh, but what if
they treated you

1271
01:08:10,875 --> 01:08:12,413
like you weren't gonna succeed?

1272
01:08:12,448 --> 01:08:13,843
Well, why would they? I was.

1273
01:08:13,878 --> 01:08:15,779
It's a hypothetical, Jason.

1274
01:08:15,814 --> 01:08:17,847
Well, I would've been like,
"Back off, haters." Like...

1275
01:08:17,882 --> 01:08:19,882
Okay, but that's
a really confident attitude,

1276
01:08:19,917 --> 01:08:22,192
and if you were being undermined
your whole life...

1277
01:08:22,227 --> 01:08:24,887
Well, I'm confident, so I
wouldn't let them undermine me.

1278
01:08:24,922 --> 01:08:26,658
But I'm saying, like,
what if your confidence

1279
01:08:26,693 --> 01:08:28,297
isn't actually yours,

1280
01:08:28,332 --> 01:08:29,793
it's just something
that you learned how to do

1281
01:08:29,828 --> 01:08:32,730
in response to how people
have treated you?

1282
01:08:32,765 --> 01:08:34,534
Like, for me-- and I'm not

1283
01:08:34,569 --> 01:08:35,898
actually sure
how this happened--

1284
01:08:35,933 --> 01:08:37,702
but I feel like, at some point,

1285
01:08:37,737 --> 01:08:39,572
I got taught
that other people...

1286
01:08:39,607 --> 01:08:41,805
- Dude, pump the brakes, man.
- Uh, my bad. I'm not trying...

1287
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:42,839
No, pump the brakes
on the Humvee.

1288
01:08:42,874 --> 01:08:44,412
Oh, sorry. Sorry.

1289
01:08:44,447 --> 01:08:45,908
Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow.
Nice, nice!

1290
01:08:45,943 --> 01:08:47,745
Whew, I thought we were
gonna overshoot it. Nice.

1291
01:08:47,780 --> 01:08:49,582
Whew. What were you saying?

1292
01:08:51,751 --> 01:08:54,290
Uh, um...

1293
01:08:56,294 --> 01:08:57,491
Nothing.

1294
01:08:57,526 --> 01:08:58,888
- Holy shit, you almost died.
- Yeah.

1295
01:09:22,287 --> 01:09:23,913
<i>Were you looking for anything</i>

1296
01:09:23,948 --> 01:09:25,255
specific?

1297
01:09:25,290 --> 01:09:27,554
Just... inspiration.

1298
01:09:28,821 --> 01:09:30,590
- Yeah.
- Tough client.

1299
01:09:30,625 --> 01:09:34,396
Well, anytime Oscar here senses
a really extreme reaction

1300
01:09:34,431 --> 01:09:35,925
from one of the clients,
good or bad,

1301
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:39,027
he starts recording to a disk.

1302
01:09:39,062 --> 01:09:40,930
And the full disks
are archived here

1303
01:09:40,965 --> 01:09:43,504
so we can look back
at these moments.

1304
01:09:43,539 --> 01:09:46,738
Usually, these are
our finest work.

1305
01:09:46,773 --> 01:09:50,841
Like, the most recent one
we caught was...

1306
01:09:50,876 --> 01:09:54,009
- Huh. All right, um...

1307
01:09:54,044 --> 01:09:56,649
No one seems to have labeled
the last one.

1308
01:09:56,684 --> 01:09:58,651
KWAME
And that's why you have nothing

1309
01:09:58,686 --> 01:10:00,818
to be embarrassed about.

1310
01:10:03,856 --> 01:10:05,394
Um...

1311
01:10:07,332 --> 01:10:08,727
Um...

1312
01:10:17,705 --> 01:10:19,375
- Excuse me.
- Sure.

1313
01:10:45,700 --> 01:10:47,601
I can't wait

1314
01:10:47,636 --> 01:10:49,999
ROGER
to see this picture.

1315
01:10:50,034 --> 01:10:52,573
Nah, that, uh,
that didn't come out.

1316
01:10:52,608 --> 01:10:53,937
Let me take it again, okay?

1317
01:10:53,972 --> 01:10:56,874
You guys ready?
'Cause this is the one.

1318
01:11:14,828 --> 01:11:18,060
He was my... second client.

1319
01:11:19,030 --> 01:11:20,700
And she was...

1320
01:11:20,735 --> 01:11:22,702
Well, I mean, she was Annie.

1321
01:11:24,706 --> 01:11:27,905
First he fell for her,
then I fell for her,

1322
01:11:27,940 --> 01:11:30,446
and then I did my job.

1323
01:11:31,746 --> 01:11:33,108
You ever regret it?

1324
01:11:34,144 --> 01:11:36,419
Regret is for white people.

1325
01:11:36,454 --> 01:11:38,718
I don't think
that's how it works.

1326
01:11:38,753 --> 01:11:40,489
Well, not according
to my grandma.

1327
01:11:40,524 --> 01:11:42,458
Oh, you're gonna quote
your wise Black grandma to me?

1328
01:11:42,493 --> 01:11:44,691
- To me?

1329
01:11:44,726 --> 01:11:46,462
Yeah, but this is my real one.

1330
01:11:46,497 --> 01:11:47,958
Okay.

1331
01:11:47,993 --> 01:11:52,468
See, my daddy...
he used to shine shoes.

1332
01:11:52,503 --> 01:11:57,440
And this one day-- I must have
been five, six years old--

1333
01:11:57,475 --> 01:11:59,541
I went to town to see him.

1334
01:11:59,576 --> 01:12:03,677
And I was running toward him,
all excited.

1335
01:12:03,712 --> 01:12:05,514
But before I got to him,

1336
01:12:05,549 --> 01:12:09,782
this white man looked down
from the chair above him,

1337
01:12:09,817 --> 01:12:12,455
and he just spit on his head.

1338
01:12:14,118 --> 01:12:17,119
He spit on him.

1339
01:12:17,154 --> 01:12:20,089
He said something about...

1340
01:12:20,124 --> 01:12:23,532
my daddy needed
more spit in his shine.

1341
01:12:24,997 --> 01:12:27,701
And I just froze.

1342
01:12:29,100 --> 01:12:32,101
I mean, my daddy had a temper.

1343
01:12:32,136 --> 01:12:34,774
So I'm saying to myself,

1344
01:12:34,809 --> 01:12:36,644
"Ooh!

1345
01:12:38,208 --> 01:12:41,979
He's about to whoop the shit
out of this white man."

1346
01:12:42,014 --> 01:12:43,618
Mm.

1347
01:12:46,821 --> 01:12:52,121
But instead, he wiped the spit
off of his head,

1348
01:12:52,156 --> 01:12:55,190
and he looked up at him
and he smiled.

1349
01:12:57,601 --> 01:13:02,637
And I ran home crying,
thinking about that smile.

1350
01:13:02,672 --> 01:13:06,674
When I finally ran into
my grandmother, I told her

1351
01:13:06,709 --> 01:13:10,810
how ashamed I was of my daddy,
and she got real still.

1352
01:13:12,583 --> 01:13:14,110
And you know what she said?

1353
01:13:14,145 --> 01:13:16,453
What?

1354
01:13:17,522 --> 01:13:21,018
"If your daddy come home
alive today...

1355
01:13:22,527 --> 01:13:25,088
...he ain't got nothing
to regret."

1356
01:13:26,256 --> 01:13:29,730
So have I lost some things
to this work?

1357
01:13:30,733 --> 01:13:32,832
Some pride?

1358
01:13:32,867 --> 01:13:34,669
Her?

1359
01:13:34,704 --> 01:13:35,934
Yeah.

1360
01:13:37,872 --> 01:13:40,873
But I never regretted
one smile.

1361
01:13:42,272 --> 01:13:45,207
Because I'm still here.

1362
01:13:46,551 --> 01:13:48,584
And so many of us ain't.

1363
01:13:53,657 --> 01:13:56,658
But what do you do about the
little part of you that dies

1364
01:13:56,693 --> 01:13:58,858
every time you smile like that?

1365
01:13:58,893 --> 01:14:00,959
What, you'd rather go
all at once?

1366
01:14:00,994 --> 01:14:03,698
- No, I just...
- It's just pride, Aren.

1367
01:14:03,733 --> 01:14:05,766
- Feels like more.
- Well, that's 'cause you didn't

1368
01:14:05,801 --> 01:14:07,702
let her go
like I told you to do.

1369
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:10,738
How'd you know that?

1370
01:14:11,939 --> 01:14:14,907
Of course I know
all about that.

1371
01:14:14,942 --> 01:14:16,546
I'm pretty much a wizard.

1372
01:14:17,307 --> 01:14:19,043
Fair enough.

1373
01:14:20,882 --> 01:14:23,245
You'll get another client,

1374
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:25,214
and she will fade.

1375
01:14:25,249 --> 01:14:27,755
Then why do you keep
a picture?

1376
01:14:27,790 --> 01:14:29,823
So she doesn't.

1377
01:14:33,290 --> 01:14:35,125
That sounds awful.

1378
01:14:35,160 --> 01:14:37,292
Well, it's better than
the alternative.

1379
01:14:37,327 --> 01:14:42,330
If you do anything to interfere
with her or your client,

1380
01:14:42,365 --> 01:14:45,267
you could have
your memory erased.

1381
01:14:45,302 --> 01:14:47,775
You won't even remember
she existed.

1382
01:14:49,746 --> 01:14:53,616
I'm sorry, son,
but this is the job.

1383
01:15:25,342 --> 01:15:27,276
Hey, Lizzie?

1384
01:15:27,311 --> 01:15:29,014
- Hey.
- Hey.

1385
01:15:31,414 --> 01:15:36,252
I just wanted to apologize

1386
01:15:36,287 --> 01:15:39,255
for being weird the other day.

1387
01:15:39,290 --> 01:15:41,356
No worries.

1388
01:15:41,391 --> 01:15:43,996
- Thank you.
- Yeah.

1389
01:15:45,901 --> 01:15:48,396
But, um, I really...

1390
01:15:48,431 --> 01:15:51,938
I really do want to be friends.

1391
01:15:51,973 --> 01:15:54,842
And I want to say that
out loud to you

1392
01:15:54,877 --> 01:15:59,077
because I...
I feel like we had a...

1393
01:15:59,112 --> 01:16:03,818
"We're actually gonna be
friends" night,

1394
01:16:03,853 --> 01:16:07,954
and then I was weird about it.

1395
01:16:09,353 --> 01:16:11,386
Um, yes.

1396
01:16:11,421 --> 01:16:13,289
Totally.

1397
01:16:13,324 --> 01:16:15,764
So...

1398
01:16:15,799 --> 01:16:16,963
friends?

1399
01:16:19,297 --> 01:16:20,329
Yes.

1400
01:16:20,364 --> 01:16:21,264
- Are we friends?

1401
01:16:21,299 --> 01:16:23,101
Of course we're friends.

1402
01:16:23,136 --> 01:16:24,399
- Yeah. Wait, I don't...
- Friends.

1403
01:16:24,434 --> 01:16:26,401
- It's formal, but...
-  Yeah.

1404
01:16:26,436 --> 01:16:28,139
Seal the deal. All right.

1405
01:16:28,174 --> 01:16:30,713
Um, I'm gonna get back
to work, okay?

1406
01:16:30,748 --> 01:16:32,913
- Okay. Okay.
- I'll see you around.

1407
01:16:38,756 --> 01:16:40,019
Hey, Aren.

1408
01:16:44,861 --> 01:16:46,025
- Hey, what's up?

1409
01:16:46,060 --> 01:16:48,060
I'm sorry, I just...

1410
01:16:48,095 --> 01:16:50,931
I know you just said
that we had a...

1411
01:16:50,966 --> 01:16:54,000
uh, "We're actually gonna be
friends" kind of night,

1412
01:16:54,035 --> 01:16:55,771
but that's...

1413
01:16:57,269 --> 01:16:59,104
...that's not
what I would call it.

1414
01:16:59,139 --> 01:17:02,074
What-what would you call it?

1415
01:17:05,508 --> 01:17:07,981
Um, we had a moment.

1416
01:17:09,050 --> 01:17:10,445
Didn't we?

1417
01:17:12,922 --> 01:17:15,956
And I guess I just figured that
you were, you were acting weird

1418
01:17:15,991 --> 01:17:18,827
because it was, uh,
it was too soon,

1419
01:17:18,862 --> 01:17:21,159
um... or it was too much,

1420
01:17:21,194 --> 01:17:24,195
um, or because I outrank you.

1421
01:17:24,230 --> 01:17:26,736
-  Oh, yeah?
- Yeah. Yeah.

1422
01:17:26,771 --> 01:17:28,364
Yeah, I could order you
to do stuff.

1423
01:17:34,405 --> 01:17:36,042
So am I crazy?

1424
01:17:37,848 --> 01:17:39,210
No.

1425
01:17:41,819 --> 01:17:43,247
Thank you.

1426
01:17:46,824 --> 01:17:50,320
We had a really lovely moment.

1427
01:17:51,455 --> 01:17:53,224
But?

1428
01:17:53,259 --> 01:17:56,260
But... I...

1429
01:17:58,462 --> 01:18:02,134
...just started this job,

1430
01:18:02,169 --> 01:18:04,202
and...

1431
01:18:04,237 --> 01:18:07,106
I'm sorry...

1432
01:18:07,141 --> 01:18:09,471
Don't be sorry.

1433
01:18:09,506 --> 01:18:11,209
Um, no, I'm sorry.

1434
01:18:11,244 --> 01:18:14,113
I sh-shouldn't have brought it
up at work. That's...

1435
01:18:17,448 --> 01:18:18,513
We're friends.

1436
01:18:18,548 --> 01:18:20,482
- We're friends.
- Friends.

1437
01:18:21,991 --> 01:18:23,760
- Friends.
- Okay.

1438
01:18:25,357 --> 01:18:27,060
Okay, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna go home,

1439
01:18:27,095 --> 01:18:29,260
but I'll... I'll see you.

1440
01:18:29,295 --> 01:18:30,393
- Okay.
- See ya around.

1441
01:18:30,428 --> 01:18:32,065
All right, see ya.

1442
01:18:42,946 --> 01:18:45,243
<i>There's a tension here.</i>

1443
01:18:46,851 --> 01:18:50,446
Black... but palatable.

1444
01:18:51,482 --> 01:18:53,218
<i>Because they don't want to know</i>

1445
01:18:53,253 --> 01:18:55,990
<i>how much it costs you
to navigate them.</i>

1446
01:18:56,025 --> 01:19:00,027
<i>The sadness behind your eyes
every time you smile.</i>

1447
01:19:00,062 --> 01:19:04,900
<i>The lump in your throat
from everything you didn't say.</i>

1448
01:19:04,935 --> 01:19:08,497
<i>We're showing the client
the parts of ourselves</i>

1449
01:19:08,532 --> 01:19:10,939
<i>that make them feel good...</i>

1450
01:19:12,602 --> 01:19:14,877
<i>...and nothing more.</i>

1451
01:20:09,296 --> 01:20:12,099
Hi, uh... -JASON
Yo, presentation day.

1452
01:20:12,134 --> 01:20:13,397
Hey, let's meet 30 before.

1453
01:20:13,432 --> 01:20:16,565
Also, big news
on the Lizzie front.

1454
01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:18,171
- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah.

1455
01:20:18,206 --> 01:20:20,635
I, uh... as soon as
the presentation's over,

1456
01:20:20,670 --> 01:20:23,374
I'm asking her out.

1457
01:20:23,409 --> 01:20:25,211
- You there?
- Mm-hmm.

1458
01:20:25,246 --> 01:20:27,114
Did you hear the part about
how after the presentation

1459
01:20:27,149 --> 01:20:28,885
I'm asking her out?

1460
01:20:38,094 --> 01:20:39,962
- I'm so sorry. I-I, um...
All good.

1461
01:20:39,997 --> 01:20:41,293
Anyway, I got a great plan
to ask her out,

1462
01:20:41,328 --> 01:20:42,932
but I'm gonna need your help.

1463
01:20:42,967 --> 01:20:44,329
What was that thing
that you said last week

1464
01:20:44,364 --> 01:20:45,660
that made her laugh?
I think it was about a...

1465
01:20:58,312 --> 01:21:00,444
Hi. This is
Lizzie. Leave a message.

1466
01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:02,248
- Hey, Lizzie, are you at work?
Hey!

1467
01:21:02,283 --> 01:21:03,579
- I need to talk to you.
- Watch where you're going!

1468
01:21:06,221 --> 01:21:07,385
JASON
You close?

1469
01:21:07,420 --> 01:21:08,716
Don't want to be
"that boatswain,"

1470
01:21:08,751 --> 01:21:10,322
but, uh, you're late.

1471
01:21:13,030 --> 01:21:15,030
<i>Hey, man,</i>

1472
01:21:15,065 --> 01:21:16,097
<i>you got an ETA?</i>

1473
01:21:16,132 --> 01:21:18,132
<i>Uh, where-where you at?</i>

1474
01:21:35,580 --> 01:21:37,712
What? LaCroix?

1475
01:21:37,747 --> 01:21:40,055
No, he's not
a dockworker, Tyler.

1476
01:21:40,090 --> 01:21:42,585
Go get the one with
the fresh fruit squeezed in it.

1477
01:21:42,620 --> 01:21:44,389
- Run!

1478
01:21:46,723 --> 01:21:48,690
Mick, hi. Jason.

1479
01:21:48,725 --> 01:21:50,362
What an honor.

1480
01:21:50,397 --> 01:21:52,760
All we are really is
just bags of meat, you know?

1481
01:21:52,795 --> 01:21:54,498
In a box.

1482
01:21:57,602 --> 01:22:00,207
Okay, Linda. Linda, Linda,
Linda, Linda, Linda, Linda.

1483
01:22:00,242 --> 01:22:02,176
- Is your team all set?
- Yes, Mick, it's, uh--

1484
01:22:02,211 --> 01:22:03,441
- Of course. Of course.
- That's great.

1485
01:22:03,476 --> 01:22:06,444
You have
a very bright future here.

1486
01:22:10,285 --> 01:22:12,120
Wow, I think
I just left my body.

1487
01:22:12,155 --> 01:22:13,121
- Are we set?
- Yes.

1488
01:22:13,156 --> 01:22:14,584
- Okay.
- Yeah.

1489
01:22:27,698 --> 01:22:29,401
Ahoy.

1490
01:22:29,436 --> 01:22:31,667
Thank you all so much
for coming.

1491
01:22:31,702 --> 01:22:33,471
Or rather not coming,

1492
01:22:33,506 --> 01:22:37,244
because we are live streaming
this to your desks.

1493
01:22:37,279 --> 01:22:41,644
We read a study in
the <i>Harvard Business Review</i>

1494
01:22:41,679 --> 01:22:43,580
that said
gathering in large groups

1495
01:22:43,615 --> 01:22:45,417
leads to too much fun!

1496
01:22:45,452 --> 01:22:47,089
And unions.

1497
01:22:47,124 --> 01:22:49,718
So we're gonna have fun
from wherever we are.

1498
01:22:49,753 --> 01:22:52,820
And I would like to hear you,
one at a time.

1499
01:22:52,855 --> 01:22:55,163
First up, Los Angeles!

1500
01:22:56,628 --> 01:22:57,693
Seoul!

1501
01:23:01,732 --> 01:23:03,600
Dude, where have you been?

1502
01:23:03,635 --> 01:23:05,701
- The presentation is starting.
- I can't talk right now, man.

1503
01:23:05,736 --> 01:23:07,637
- We're about to go on.
- Have you seen Lizzie?

1504
01:23:07,672 --> 01:23:10,475
She'll be at the presentation.
Come on.

1505
01:23:11,511 --> 01:23:13,511
Uh, the other day,
I was bidding on

1506
01:23:13,546 --> 01:23:15,381
a first edition
of <i>The Fountainhead,</i>

1507
01:23:15,416 --> 01:23:17,152
and I lost.

1508
01:23:17,187 --> 01:23:21,816
Now, those of you who know me
know that I hate losing.

1509
01:23:21,851 --> 01:23:23,587
Okay?

1510
01:23:23,622 --> 01:23:25,358
But in the end,
it was kind of exhilarating,

1511
01:23:25,393 --> 01:23:30,297
cause it reminded me
of my drive to win.

1512
01:23:30,332 --> 01:23:34,268
Now, Ghana-gate...

1513
01:23:34,303 --> 01:23:36,204
reminded us that
we have to double down

1514
01:23:36,239 --> 01:23:37,634
on connecting with everybody.

1515
01:23:37,669 --> 01:23:40,703
Design will help them
find their bliss.

1516
01:23:40,738 --> 01:23:42,408
- I don't see Lizzie.
- Just find her after.

1517
01:23:42,443 --> 01:23:44,311
No, it's urgent.
I'm having a moment of clarity.

1518
01:23:44,346 --> 01:23:45,576
Hey, hey, there's nothing more
urgent than this presentation.

1519
01:23:45,611 --> 01:23:47,281
Look, I'm just
clicking the slides.

1520
01:23:47,316 --> 01:23:48,513
If I'm not back in time,
you can do it on your own.

1521
01:23:48,548 --> 01:23:50,119
- No, you have to be there.
- Why?

1522
01:23:50,154 --> 01:23:51,714
- Because you do.
- I'm just pressing a button.

1523
01:23:51,749 --> 01:23:53,683
Do I have to spell this out
for you? -Yeah, apparently.

1524
01:23:53,718 --> 01:23:56,356
So this whole rebrand
is about diversity.

1525
01:23:56,391 --> 01:23:58,523
Now, without further ado,

1526
01:23:58,558 --> 01:24:00,591
please join me
in welcoming to the stage

1527
01:24:00,626 --> 01:24:03,462
L.A. design team head
Linda Masterson!

1528
01:24:06,698 --> 01:24:08,500
Thanks so much, Mick.

1529
01:24:08,535 --> 01:24:10,733
Well, I think it's safe to say

1530
01:24:10,768 --> 01:24:14,506
that every crew is
only as good as their captain.

1531
01:24:16,345 --> 01:24:19,148
And with Mick at
the helm, it's pretty clear

1532
01:24:19,183 --> 01:24:22,415
we're not gonna be hitting
any icebergs anytime soon.

1533
01:24:52,975 --> 01:24:56,284
These may not
seem like MeetBox words.

1534
01:24:56,319 --> 01:24:58,814
They may not be carved
on the hull of values.

1535
01:24:58,849 --> 01:25:00,948
But I would argue...

1536
01:25:04,525 --> 01:25:05,458
Hey.

1537
01:25:05,493 --> 01:25:07,691
- Hey.
- I, uh...

1538
01:25:09,992 --> 01:25:12,300
I didn't like that.

1539
01:25:12,335 --> 01:25:13,796
What?

1540
01:25:13,831 --> 01:25:15,336
That thing you said,
I didn't like it.

1541
01:25:15,371 --> 01:25:16,667
Okay.

1542
01:25:16,702 --> 01:25:18,207
I felt like you were saying

1543
01:25:18,242 --> 01:25:19,373
that I'm only here
because of my race.

1544
01:25:19,408 --> 01:25:20,605
- I didn't like that.
- What?

1545
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:22,442
And I needed to say that
out loud.

1546
01:25:22,477 --> 01:25:23,740
Whoa.

1547
01:25:23,775 --> 01:25:27,249
I feel crazy
just blurting that out.

1548
01:25:27,284 --> 01:25:28,514
That's... Wow.

1549
01:25:28,549 --> 01:25:29,911
- Whoa.

1550
01:25:29,946 --> 01:25:31,484
Just once, I wanted to say
what I thought,

1551
01:25:31,519 --> 01:25:33,882
- no matter the consequences.
- I'm not racist.

1552
01:25:33,917 --> 01:25:35,290
What?

1553
01:25:35,325 --> 01:25:36,918
- I'm not racist.
- Oh, no, no, no, no.

1554
01:25:36,953 --> 01:25:38,425
That's not what I'm saying.

1555
01:25:38,460 --> 01:25:39,657
I was just trying
to tell you how I felt,

1556
01:25:39,692 --> 01:25:41,395
which is actually
pretty big for me,

1557
01:25:41,430 --> 01:25:43,628
cause I usually only
worry about how you feel...

1558
01:25:43,663 --> 01:25:45,795
'Cause I would never say
anything racist.

1559
01:25:45,830 --> 01:25:47,368
No, I'm just talking about me.

1560
01:25:47,403 --> 01:25:49,304
I don't have a racist bone
in my body.

1561
01:25:49,339 --> 01:25:53,000
Sorry, I'm actually having a
moment of real personal growth,

1562
01:25:53,035 --> 01:25:55,706
and so-- no offense--

1563
01:25:55,741 --> 01:25:59,545
I don't really care if you're
racist on a skeletal level.

1564
01:25:59,580 --> 01:26:01,283
Whoa, we can't just,
like, throw that shit around.

1565
01:26:01,318 --> 01:26:02,779
All right?
It's like a death sentence.

1566
01:26:02,814 --> 01:26:04,979
No, getting shot
is a death sentence.

1567
01:26:05,014 --> 01:26:06,453
You know what I mean.
- No, I don't totally.

1568
01:26:06,488 --> 01:26:07,751
You did say a thing.

1569
01:26:07,786 --> 01:26:10,017
You said
you only needed me onstage

1570
01:26:10,052 --> 01:26:11,524
- because I'm diverse.
- No.

1571
01:26:11,559 --> 01:26:13,526
- No, I didn't.
- Yes, you did.

1572
01:26:13,561 --> 01:26:14,758
No, no, I said

1573
01:26:14,793 --> 01:26:16,661
the presentation
is about diversity.

1574
01:26:17,697 --> 01:26:19,829
That... that's semantics.

1575
01:26:19,864 --> 01:26:21,996
That's-that's not
what happened. -I'm sorry...

1576
01:26:22,031 --> 01:26:24,702
- I'm sorry you heard it wrong.
- I-I was just there. That's...

1577
01:26:24,737 --> 01:26:26,374
If what you're saying happened,

1578
01:26:26,409 --> 01:26:27,870
then I'm racist,
and I'm not racist,

1579
01:26:27,905 --> 01:26:29,740
so it couldn't have happened
how you said it happened.

1580
01:26:29,775 --> 01:26:31,346
So because
you don't want to feel bad,

1581
01:26:31,381 --> 01:26:32,347
the thing that just happened
didn't happen?

1582
01:26:32,382 --> 01:26:33,678
That makes it sound crazy.

1583
01:26:33,713 --> 01:26:35,317
- That's because it's crazy.
- Can we...

1584
01:26:35,352 --> 01:26:37,418
Can we just please
focus up here?

1585
01:26:38,388 --> 01:26:40,916
And now Jason Mundt.

1586
01:26:42,051 --> 01:26:43,556
- I don't care if you're racist.
- Dude.

1587
01:26:43,591 --> 01:26:45,426
- Everyone's racist.
- Aren.

1588
01:26:45,461 --> 01:26:46,955
I care that you won't
acknowledge what just happened.

1589
01:26:46,990 --> 01:26:48,462
I'm sorry you're offended, okay?

1590
01:26:48,497 --> 01:26:49,925
I mean, how can we move forward

1591
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:50,926
- until we acknowledge...
- I apologize. You hear me?

1592
01:26:50,961 --> 01:26:52,334
This is me apologizing.

1593
01:26:52,369 --> 01:26:53,599
...the basic facts
of the situation?

1594
01:26:53,634 --> 01:26:54,600
- Are they lovers?

1595
01:26:54,635 --> 01:26:56,635
I don't think so.

1596
01:26:56,670 --> 01:26:58,406
I'm not asking for
reparations. -I did all of it.

1597
01:26:58,441 --> 01:26:59,770
I'm not asking for you
to apologize. -I did racism.

1598
01:26:59,805 --> 01:27:01,310
- I did slavery.
- I'm just asking for...

1599
01:27:01,345 --> 01:27:02,542
If I could just do
this presentation,

1600
01:27:02,577 --> 01:27:03,840
- that would be great.
- I'm sorry,

1601
01:27:03,875 --> 01:27:04,775
- did you say you did slavery?
- Uh...

1602
01:27:04,810 --> 01:27:06,645
Like, as an institution?

1603
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:08,515
How did we get there?!
- I'm just, I'm just gonna...

1604
01:27:08,550 --> 01:27:10,517
All you had to do was listen
to me and the thing that I was

1605
01:27:10,552 --> 01:27:12,013
- saying about myself!

1606
01:27:12,048 --> 01:27:13,421
- Hey, what's happening?
- For Christ's sake...

1607
01:27:13,456 --> 01:27:14,884
I don't know.
He's freaking out.

1608
01:27:14,919 --> 01:27:16,457
...there's a section
of the presentation called

1609
01:27:16,492 --> 01:27:17,953
"Diverse Experiences."
It's a dumb title,

1610
01:27:17,988 --> 01:27:19,757
- but it's in there.
- Okay, Mick, I've got this.

1611
01:27:19,792 --> 01:27:21,495
You couldn't be less
interested... -Um, excuse me.

1612
01:27:21,530 --> 01:27:23,057
Oh, you want to get in
on this, Mick? -Uh, fellas?

1613
01:27:23,092 --> 01:27:24,498
Yeah, I think I might be able
to help out with this.

1614
01:27:24,533 --> 01:27:25,730
- Just go.
- All right. Ahoy, MeetBox.

1615
01:27:25,765 --> 01:27:26,698
Oh, you think
you understand me?

1616
01:27:26,733 --> 01:27:28,568
- Uh, yeah.
- Mick,

1617
01:27:28,603 --> 01:27:29,800
you don't understand other
people. -And my name is Jason.

1618
01:27:29,835 --> 01:27:31,065
- You own an island.

1619
01:27:31,100 --> 01:27:32,935
Right. -JASON: I'd like
to get started...

1620
01:27:32,970 --> 01:27:34,475
No one with an island has
empathy. -MASTERSON: Just stop.

1621
01:27:34,510 --> 01:27:36,642
It's not possible
to possess both things.

1622
01:27:36,677 --> 01:27:38,413
- Right.
Dude, stop.

1623
01:27:38,448 --> 01:27:39,744
Okay, I'm so sorry.

1624
01:27:39,779 --> 01:27:40,844
Why are you doing this?
We're friends.

1625
01:27:40,879 --> 01:27:42,450
You're not my friend.

1626
01:27:42,485 --> 01:27:43,781
And you don't want
to be friends,

1627
01:27:43,816 --> 01:27:45,486
because if we were
actual friends,

1628
01:27:45,521 --> 01:27:48,588
you would have to talk to me
and listen to me

1629
01:27:48,623 --> 01:27:52,922
and make space for the reality
that I live in a country

1630
01:27:52,957 --> 01:27:56,761
that makes me feel
like it wants me dead.

1631
01:27:56,796 --> 01:27:57,828
- What?
- What?

1632
01:27:57,863 --> 01:28:00,061
Where if I get shot today,

1633
01:28:00,096 --> 01:28:03,097
there is an army of people
ready to explain how it was

1634
01:28:03,132 --> 01:28:05,099
- probably my fault.
-  Probably?

1635
01:28:05,134 --> 01:28:07,409
- And I feel that every day.
- Aren, the diversity section

1636
01:28:07,444 --> 01:28:09,708
of this whole thing is coming
later. -In every glance,

1637
01:28:09,743 --> 01:28:11,974
in every movie that's
supposed to be uplifting.

1638
01:28:12,009 --> 01:28:13,811
- And maybe less about death.
- And that changes everything.

1639
01:28:13,846 --> 01:28:15,549
Because death and diversity
don't really have anything

1640
01:28:15,584 --> 01:28:16,814
- to do with each other, so...
- That changes how I walk

1641
01:28:16,849 --> 01:28:19,784
and how I talk
and how I take up space!

1642
01:28:19,819 --> 01:28:20,818
Or don't!

1643
01:28:20,853 --> 01:28:22,083
I got this. Okay.

1644
01:28:22,118 --> 01:28:23,689
It changes
what risks feel reasonable

1645
01:28:23,724 --> 01:28:26,494
and which ones are insane.

1646
01:28:26,529 --> 01:28:29,057
And it's taken me my whole life
to realize that this is

1647
01:28:29,092 --> 01:28:30,894
a weight
that I walk around with

1648
01:28:30,929 --> 01:28:32,500
- all the time.
Hi.

1649
01:28:32,535 --> 01:28:33,831
- My name is Jason, and I...
- And after this

1650
01:28:33,866 --> 01:28:35,470
lifelong journey
of figuring out

1651
01:28:35,505 --> 01:28:37,439
that maybe this shit
impacts everything I do...

1652
01:28:37,474 --> 01:28:38,968
Linda, you-you're not Jason.
You can't do that.

1653
01:28:39,003 --> 01:28:40,475
...you want to turn around
and act like I'm crazy

1654
01:28:40,510 --> 01:28:41,971
for acknowledging it.
No, no, no, no.

1655
01:28:42,006 --> 01:28:43,643
No, no, no, no. You don't
get to put me in danger

1656
01:28:43,678 --> 01:28:44,941
just because you don't want
to feel like an asshole.

1657
01:28:44,976 --> 01:28:46,415
Young man, young man.

1658
01:28:46,450 --> 01:28:47,482
- Be the asshole.
We have forums...

1659
01:28:47,517 --> 01:28:48,813
Mick, hold on a second.

1660
01:28:48,848 --> 01:28:50,045
- Jason!
- I beg your pardon?

1661
01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:52,014
Because the shame
that you feel like

1662
01:28:52,049 --> 01:28:54,016
you did something wrong
just by being yourself,

1663
01:28:54,051 --> 01:28:55,886
- that is my whole life.
You know what?

1664
01:28:55,921 --> 01:28:58,592
- You know what, everybody?
And this place...

1665
01:28:58,627 --> 01:29:00,022
- this country...
- This is MeetBox.

1666
01:29:00,057 --> 01:29:02,057
...has been
so deeply indifferent

1667
01:29:02,092 --> 01:29:04,499
- to whether or not I exist...

1668
01:29:04,534 --> 01:29:08,503
...that on some level, I don't
think I have the right to.

1669
01:29:08,538 --> 01:29:10,472
And what I am saying to you

1670
01:29:10,507 --> 01:29:12,034
that you so steadfastly
refuse to hear...

1671
01:29:12,069 --> 01:29:13,607
It's the Mick way.
It's the MeetBox way.

1672
01:29:13,642 --> 01:29:15,444
...is fuck that!

1673
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:17,776
I do!

1674
01:29:18,977 --> 01:29:20,944
I deserve to be here.

1675
01:29:22,112 --> 01:29:25,454
Not just on this stage
but in this world.

1676
01:29:28,789 --> 01:29:32,153
And that, believe it or not,
is a revelation to me.

1677
01:29:34,256 --> 01:29:38,863
So you want to know about
my-my "diverse experience"?

1678
01:29:40,537 --> 01:29:43,472
I have been on this planet
for 27 years,

1679
01:29:43,507 --> 01:29:47,476
and I just figured out this week
that I deserve to be alive.

1680
01:30:08,257 --> 01:30:10,026
I didn't know that.

1681
01:30:12,228 --> 01:30:13,898
Me neither.

1682
01:30:18,806 --> 01:30:20,641
- Hi.
- Hi. That was...

1683
01:30:21,776 --> 01:30:23,138
I'm gonna move us a little.

1684
01:30:23,173 --> 01:30:24,711
What?

1685
01:30:26,209 --> 01:30:27,813
So, I'm gonna go soon,

1686
01:30:27,848 --> 01:30:29,815
- and I-I can't explain.
- Oh, my God.

1687
01:30:29,850 --> 01:30:31,784
But even though we might
never see each other again,

1688
01:30:31,819 --> 01:30:33,522
I need you to know
that you're not crazy.

1689
01:30:33,557 --> 01:30:35,183
What we had was real.

1690
01:30:35,218 --> 01:30:38,021
And as long as I've known you,
I've wanted to do this.

1691
01:30:43,193 --> 01:30:45,193
Aren?

1692
01:30:51,135 --> 01:30:53,575
Aren Mbondo.

1693
01:30:57,746 --> 01:31:00,142
We have seen your crimes
on the MeetBox stage,

1694
01:31:00,177 --> 01:31:02,947
crimes that have
endangered everyone

1695
01:31:02,982 --> 01:31:07,215
and kept me
at this miserable height.

1696
01:31:07,250 --> 01:31:09,591
What happened after
you left the auditorium?

1697
01:31:09,626 --> 01:31:12,759
I teleported my client's love
interest to a romantic location

1698
01:31:12,794 --> 01:31:13,991
where I tried to kiss her.

1699
01:31:15,731 --> 01:31:19,062
In my defense,
I had feelings for her first,

1700
01:31:19,097 --> 01:31:22,263
and he kind of
colonized my crush.

1701
01:31:24,234 --> 01:31:27,840
How can you possibly justify
your behavior?

1702
01:31:29,371 --> 01:31:33,648
I guess I've always felt like
it's my job

1703
01:31:33,683 --> 01:31:35,650
to make white people
feel comfortable,

1704
01:31:35,685 --> 01:31:38,587
and obviously,
here it literally is,

1705
01:31:38,622 --> 01:31:41,282
but...

1706
01:31:41,317 --> 01:31:43,218
it shouldn't be.

1707
01:31:46,256 --> 01:31:48,729
I get it though...

1708
01:31:50,799 --> 01:31:52,733
Aren,

1709
01:31:52,768 --> 01:31:54,801
you are hereby banished

1710
01:31:54,836 --> 01:31:58,068
from the American Society
of Magical Negroes.

1711
01:32:00,072 --> 01:32:01,874
Makes sense.

1712
01:32:17,023 --> 01:32:18,957
You got a history
of concussions?

1713
01:32:20,059 --> 01:32:23,192
Because technically
this spell is brain damage.

1714
01:32:24,294 --> 01:32:26,096
I'm okay.

1715
01:32:49,352 --> 01:32:51,352
- Are you gonna...
- Just give me a second.

1716
01:32:51,387 --> 01:32:53,156
Um, yeah, okay.

1717
01:32:53,191 --> 01:32:55,059
You know you're not
gonna be able

1718
01:32:55,094 --> 01:32:56,731
to take care of yourself
out there?

1719
01:32:59,901 --> 01:33:02,803
Um... I'll be fine.

1720
01:33:08,778 --> 01:33:10,008
Okay.

1721
01:33:31,394 --> 01:33:33,097
Shit.

1722
01:33:33,132 --> 01:33:34,835
What? What's...

1723
01:33:34,870 --> 01:33:38,069
I think you must have
gave somebody notions.

1724
01:33:38,104 --> 01:33:40,269
I could really use a hand here.

1725
01:33:40,304 --> 01:33:44,108
I don't think you really
understand the welfare state.

1726
01:33:44,143 --> 01:33:45,373
What?

1727
01:33:45,408 --> 01:33:47,243
But it's got to be
a two-way street.

1728
01:33:47,278 --> 01:33:49,982
I can't be the only one
grabbing crotches around here.

1729
01:33:50,017 --> 01:33:52,380
You've got to check in
on my penis as well.

1730
01:33:55,759 --> 01:33:58,254
But this shutdown
feels different. Big.

1731
01:33:58,289 --> 01:34:00,795
Did I just put you
out of a job? -Oh, no.

1732
01:34:00,830 --> 01:34:03,193
Being a magical Negro
isn't just about magic.

1733
01:34:03,228 --> 01:34:05,965
As long as there are
fretful whites,

1734
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:08,033
we will be here.

1735
01:34:11,236 --> 01:34:13,071
All right.

1736
01:34:13,106 --> 01:34:15,403
Uh... I'm gonna go.

1737
01:34:15,438 --> 01:34:17,878
But what you gonna do for work?

1738
01:34:17,913 --> 01:34:19,880
Uh...

1739
01:34:19,915 --> 01:34:21,882
Actually, I have an idea
for a new piece.

1740
01:34:21,917 --> 01:34:23,785
The yarn?

1741
01:34:23,820 --> 01:34:25,787
You do remember
nobody liked it?

1742
01:34:25,822 --> 01:34:27,888
Yeah, but I do.

1743
01:34:29,485 --> 01:34:33,960
Well, if I'm letting you out of
here with your memory intact,

1744
01:34:33,995 --> 01:34:35,863
you better text me tonight.

1745
01:34:35,898 --> 01:34:37,898
Okay, sure.

1746
01:34:37,933 --> 01:34:41,231
And none of that emoji shit.
I need words.

1747
01:34:42,872 --> 01:34:45,301
I'm curious to see how you
gonna make it out of all this.

1748
01:34:45,336 --> 01:34:46,841
Make it out of what?

1749
01:34:48,273 --> 01:34:50,372
You didn't leave her in L.A.

1750
01:34:50,407 --> 01:34:52,847
Oh.

1751
01:34:52,882 --> 01:34:54,816
No.

1752
01:34:54,851 --> 01:34:55,850
No, no, no.

1753
01:34:55,885 --> 01:34:57,786
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

1754
01:34:57,821 --> 01:34:59,414
LIZZIE
<i>Aren, what is going on?</i>

1755
01:34:59,449 --> 01:35:01,416
<i>You just left me here
and you just disappeared?</i>

1756
01:35:01,451 --> 01:35:03,121
<i>- I'm on the...</i>
Excuse me!

1757
01:35:03,156 --> 01:35:04,518
LIZZIE
<i>...on the Empire State Building.</i>

1758
01:35:04,553 --> 01:35:06,795
<i>What is going on?</i>

1759
01:35:06,830 --> 01:35:08,291
<i>Um, okay, great.</i>

1760
01:35:08,326 --> 01:35:11,030
<i>So, I'm, like,
on the Brooklyn Bridge now</i>

1761
01:35:11,065 --> 01:35:12,262
<i>on the way to the airport,</i>

1762
01:35:12,297 --> 01:35:15,397
<i>uh, and I guess
I'm in New York.</i>

1763
01:35:15,432 --> 01:35:18,070
<i>I, uh, landed in L.A.</i>

1764
01:35:18,105 --> 01:35:21,304
<i>Um, I'm in a car home
right now.</i>

1765
01:35:21,339 --> 01:35:23,108
<i>Um, can you just--
can you give me a call</i>

1766
01:35:23,143 --> 01:35:25,209
<i>and let me know
that you're okay?</i>

1767
01:35:29,512 --> 01:35:31,446
Lizzie.

1768
01:35:31,481 --> 01:35:33,316
Hey. I'm so sorry.

1769
01:35:33,351 --> 01:35:35,582
I didn't realize
that when I left...

1770
01:35:59,641 --> 01:36:02,213
I, uh...

1771
01:36:02,248 --> 01:36:03,610
Uh-huh?

1772
01:36:03,645 --> 01:36:05,249
Ah.

1773
01:36:05,284 --> 01:36:09,154
Hi, uh, Aren.

1774
01:36:09,189 --> 01:36:13,257
Um, I feel terrible
about leaving you in New York.

1775
01:36:13,292 --> 01:36:14,962
That was not
what I was planning on.

1776
01:36:14,997 --> 01:36:18,361
Mm-hmm.
So, do you have powers or...

1777
01:36:18,396 --> 01:36:21,364
No, right. Okay, that's
a, that's a fair question.

1778
01:36:21,399 --> 01:36:25,335
I'm part of this magic society--

1779
01:36:25,370 --> 01:36:26,600
Or-or I was.

1780
01:36:26,635 --> 01:36:28,569
I just quit, so...

1781
01:36:28,604 --> 01:36:30,241
Good on me or...

1782
01:36:30,276 --> 01:36:32,342
You're kidding.

1783
01:36:32,377 --> 01:36:34,212
Nope.

1784
01:36:34,247 --> 01:36:36,181
Which is such a crazy
coincidence, because I'm...

1785
01:36:36,216 --> 01:36:37,985
I'm also a part
of a magic society,

1786
01:36:38,020 --> 01:36:40,416
and I was about to quit.

1787
01:36:40,451 --> 01:36:41,956
Yeah, okay, that's funny.

1788
01:36:41,991 --> 01:36:43,958
- I-I deserve that.
No, really.

1789
01:36:43,993 --> 01:36:45,388
But first I thought
I would kidnap you

1790
01:36:45,423 --> 01:36:47,357
and leave you
on the Space Needle.

1791
01:36:47,392 --> 01:36:51,262
No, I was...
I was trying to be romantic.

1792
01:36:51,297 --> 01:36:53,165
All right.

1793
01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:55,068
Just walk with me, then.

1794
01:36:55,103 --> 01:36:56,663
- That sounds much nicer.
Okay.

1795
01:36:56,698 --> 01:36:59,567
Maybe no more magic.

1796
01:36:59,602 --> 01:37:03,307
Yeah. No more magic.

1797
01:37:03,342 --> 01:37:05,947
Oh, and you still
owe me a coffee.

1798
01:37:22,229 --> 01:37:23,492
Can I help you?

1799
01:37:27,234 --> 01:37:29,234
Oh. Okay.
