00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,195
There's a feast!

3
00:00:18,229 --> 00:00:19,496
There's a festival!

4
00:00:19,530 --> 00:00:21,365
*There's a feastival

5
00:00:21,398 --> 00:00:23,567
*At Casa Bonita!

6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,969
[man VO] Why do so
many kids like Casa Bonita?

7
00:00:26,002 --> 00:00:28,004
It's the rides!

8
00:00:28,038 --> 00:00:31,542
Casa Bonita is the only
place of its kind in the world.

9
00:00:31,575 --> 00:00:33,577
It's a fantastic
Mexican village,

10
00:00:33,610 --> 00:00:36,747
alive with fun
and excitement.

11
00:00:37,248 --> 00:00:38,582
Goodness gracias!

12
00:00:38,615 --> 00:00:40,717
*There's a feastival

13
00:00:40,751 --> 00:00:42,219

14
00:00:42,253 --> 00:00:44,255
[parrot] Goodness gracias!

15
00:00:52,629 --> 00:00:53,764
Psyched.

16
00:00:55,199 --> 00:00:56,733
Fuckin' psyched.

17
00:00:56,767 --> 00:00:58,169
I almost bailed
about half an hour ago,

18
00:00:58,202 --> 00:00:59,970
and then I rallied.

19
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:10,747
Let's go eat some sopapillas.

20
00:01:10,781 --> 00:01:15,586
*mellow curious music

21
00:01:15,619 --> 00:01:16,753
We're back, honey!

22
00:01:16,787 --> 00:01:18,389
[Matt] It's that--
it's that...

23
00:01:18,422 --> 00:01:19,623
-that smell.
-[woman] It's horrible.

24
00:01:19,656 --> 00:01:21,457
That Casa Bonita smell.

25
00:01:22,626 --> 00:01:23,960
[woman, laughing] Ew!

26
00:01:23,994 --> 00:01:25,562
Chlorine and beans!
[laughs]

27
00:01:25,596 --> 00:01:28,232
Everyone that grew up in
this area of Colorado knew

28
00:01:28,265 --> 00:01:29,600
Casa Bonita -- everybody.
But also, people even from,

29
00:01:29,633 --> 00:01:32,636
like, Nebraska and Kansas
know about Casa Bonita.

30
00:01:32,669 --> 00:01:34,605
You know, we don't
have Disneyland.

31
00:01:34,638 --> 00:01:36,407
[Trey VO] People
call Casa Bonita

32
00:01:36,439 --> 00:01:39,276
"the Mexican
restaurant Disneyland."

33
00:01:40,110 --> 00:01:42,445
You walk in, and it's this...

34
00:01:42,479 --> 00:01:46,650
Mexican village at night,
lost in time to the '70s.

35
00:01:46,683 --> 00:01:49,420
It was this
magical town that you,

36
00:01:49,453 --> 00:01:52,423
as a kid, could run
around and kind of explore,

37
00:01:52,456 --> 00:01:54,425
and see what was in it.

38
00:01:57,461 --> 00:01:58,594
[Matt] Ooh, there's spiders!

39
00:01:58,629 --> 00:02:01,265
Oooh, look at that.

40
00:02:01,298 --> 00:02:04,067
[kids chanting]

41
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:06,270
[Trey VO] There
are cliff divers,

42
00:02:06,303 --> 00:02:09,605
and then there's, you
know, caves to explore...

43
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:11,275
***

44
00:02:11,308 --> 00:02:13,877
You know, it just seems
to keep going forever.

45
00:02:14,511 --> 00:02:16,313
And then, there's things
that don't quite make sense,

46
00:02:16,347 --> 00:02:18,615
like a gorilla running
around... [chuckles]

47
00:02:18,649 --> 00:02:21,084
and a sheriff that
might arrest you.

48
00:02:21,117 --> 00:02:23,687
It made it feel like a dream.

49
00:02:24,555 --> 00:02:26,857
[laughter]

50
00:02:26,890 --> 00:02:31,895
It was absolutely my
favorite thing to do as a kid.

51
00:02:34,731 --> 00:02:35,732
Yeah.

52
00:02:36,132 --> 00:02:37,534
Because it was just--
part of it was just, like,

53
00:02:37,568 --> 00:02:39,536
it was always--
when I was a kid,

54
00:02:39,570 --> 00:02:42,839
it was a dream that one
day I could own Casa Bonita,

55
00:02:42,872 --> 00:02:44,308
or, like...

56
00:02:44,341 --> 00:02:45,476
Actually, this would have
been-- I was telling Toby--

57
00:02:45,509 --> 00:02:46,643
[Matt] You probably
could own Casa Bonita.

58
00:02:46,677 --> 00:02:47,744
Yeah, I-- I...

59
00:02:47,778 --> 00:02:49,346
Lemme tell you: your
dreams can come true.

60
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:51,515
[Trey, laughing] I was
just gonna say that...

61
00:02:55,686 --> 00:02:57,554
[dramatic whoosh]

62
00:03:02,526 --> 00:03:04,528
[female reporter VO] Fans of
Casa Bonita have been missing

63
00:03:04,561 --> 00:03:07,731
this iconic restaurant
for more than a year.

64
00:03:07,764 --> 00:03:09,300
It's been closed
since the beginning of

65
00:03:09,333 --> 00:03:11,868
the COVID-19 pandemic.

66
00:03:11,902 --> 00:03:14,571
Earlier this month, the
restaurant's parent company

67
00:03:14,605 --> 00:03:16,740
filed for bankruptcy.

68
00:03:16,773 --> 00:03:18,909
Court documents
show Casa Bonita faces

69
00:03:18,942 --> 00:03:22,178
4.4 million dollars in debt.

70
00:03:22,212 --> 00:03:23,714
[male reporter VO] Rumors
just began swirling that it

71
00:03:23,747 --> 00:03:26,116
might never reopen again.

72
00:03:29,353 --> 00:03:34,358
*upbeat Latin music

73
00:04:07,791 --> 00:04:09,393

*sparse curious music

75
00:04:16,232 --> 00:04:19,603
[woman VO] There's a group of
people in Denver trying to save

76
00:04:19,636 --> 00:04:22,639
Casa Bonita, 'cause we
just don't want it to go away.

77
00:04:22,673 --> 00:04:24,375
[male reporter VO] When
it comes to Casa Bonita,

78
00:04:24,408 --> 00:04:28,144
passions for keeping the
Lakewood staple open are strong.

79
00:04:28,178 --> 00:04:29,746
I was actually very sad
that it was closed down;

80
00:04:29,780 --> 00:04:31,782
I was like,
"No, I need to go there with

81
00:04:31,815 --> 00:04:32,983
my family and my friends."

82
00:04:33,016 --> 00:04:34,818
Jeff Todd on the story
in Lakewood tonight.

83
00:04:34,851 --> 00:04:36,052
Jeff?

84
00:04:36,086 --> 00:04:37,621
Jim, this is how many
people love this place.

85
00:04:37,654 --> 00:04:41,425
The effort is to try and get the
restaurant open at some point

86
00:04:41,458 --> 00:04:42,993
this summer.

87
00:04:43,259 --> 00:04:45,429
[woman VO] Casa Bonita's
such a big, integral part

88
00:04:45,462 --> 00:04:47,063
of Colorado tradition

89
00:04:47,097 --> 00:04:50,967
that it would be really sad to
see all of the tradition gone.

90
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,469
[female reporter VO] Now,
we haven't actually confirmed

91
00:04:52,503 --> 00:04:53,537
this, but...

92
00:04:53,570 --> 00:04:56,006
Casa Bonita may
get some new owners,

93
00:04:56,039 --> 00:04:59,676
and you wouldn't believe who
is rumored to be interested.

94
00:04:59,710 --> 00:05:02,646
***

95
00:05:03,647 --> 00:05:06,016
[Trey] How do we get the
bike parade cancelled?

96
00:05:06,049 --> 00:05:08,485
How do you get
anything cancelled?!

97
00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:11,087
You bitch about it
being insensitive!

98
00:05:11,121 --> 00:05:13,624
[laughter]

99
00:05:13,657 --> 00:05:15,125
Hey, yeah!

100
00:05:15,158 --> 00:05:17,794
We can go to the mayor and--
and force her to cancel it!

101
00:05:17,828 --> 00:05:20,697
What's offensive
about a bike parade?

102
00:05:20,731 --> 00:05:22,633
"What's offensive
about a bike parade?"

103
00:05:22,666 --> 00:05:25,101
Kyle!
You small-minded piece of shit!

104
00:05:25,135 --> 00:05:27,638
We should cancel you
just for saying that!

105
00:05:27,671 --> 00:05:29,205
[Matt] Oh, I get it!

106
00:05:29,239 --> 00:05:31,074
[laughter]

107
00:05:32,075 --> 00:05:34,310
You didn't tell me there
was Tegridy here, Mayor!

108
00:05:34,344 --> 00:05:37,681
[Trey VO] I had heard that Casa
Bonita's closing down forever.

109
00:05:37,714 --> 00:05:38,882
I mean, that would
really bum me out.

110
00:05:38,915 --> 00:05:41,351
"You know, someone should
do something about that."

111
00:05:41,685 --> 00:05:44,220
At first, it was
really just a "Hey,

112
00:05:44,254 --> 00:05:45,856
there might be this
group trying to buy it,

113
00:05:45,889 --> 00:05:47,223
and, oh..."

114
00:05:47,257 --> 00:05:48,459
You know, I was just
immediately with Matt like,

115
00:05:48,492 --> 00:05:49,726
"Oh, yeah, dude, we
gotta get in on that!

116
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,327
Like, let's do it!"

117
00:05:51,361 --> 00:05:55,031
And that slowly became
"Okay, they're all out."

118
00:05:55,065 --> 00:05:56,867
And so the kid in
me was just like,

119
00:05:56,900 --> 00:05:58,735
"Hey, you wanna buy Disneyland?"
[laughing] You know what I mean?

120
00:05:58,769 --> 00:06:00,471
It was just like,
"I could do that?!"

121
00:06:00,504 --> 00:06:03,774
*mellow curious music

122
00:06:07,343 --> 00:06:09,746
[laughs]

123
00:06:14,918 --> 00:06:17,053
Ohhh!

124
00:06:17,087 --> 00:06:18,522
[Trey] Careful!

125
00:06:18,555 --> 00:06:20,757
[Matt] My kids would
fucking love this place.

126
00:06:20,791 --> 00:06:22,325
How much would your
kids just love this?

127
00:06:22,358 --> 00:06:23,694
[Trey] Oh, yeah!

128
00:06:23,727 --> 00:06:25,328
For a kid, it's
just, like, endless.

129
00:06:25,361 --> 00:06:26,730
You know, it seems endless.

130
00:06:26,763 --> 00:06:28,499
It's pretty fucking big!

131
00:06:28,532 --> 00:06:30,867
[Matt VO] Trey's into that
kind of stuff more than I am.

132
00:06:30,901 --> 00:06:32,268
But now, I'm
like, "This is cool,

133
00:06:32,302 --> 00:06:34,705
and this can be
super cool and

134
00:06:34,738 --> 00:06:37,774
retain all of
that vintage vibe,

135
00:06:37,808 --> 00:06:41,545
but, like, the
better version of it."

136
00:06:41,577 --> 00:06:42,913
[Matt] And how many
people go through a day,

137
00:06:42,946 --> 00:06:44,581
do you think,
on a busy day?

138
00:06:47,984 --> 00:06:49,786
5,000 people come
in and out a day.

139
00:06:51,788 --> 00:06:53,757
Yeah, definitely.

140
00:06:53,790 --> 00:06:56,760
So nice to meet you, and I'm
sure we'll speak some time soon.

141
00:07:10,173 --> 00:07:13,209
Trey and I were up all
night feverishly negotiating.

142
00:07:13,243 --> 00:07:16,412
We're at the Governor's
Mansion; we're about to walk in!

143
00:07:16,446 --> 00:07:17,748
Everyone's gonna
learn right now;

144
00:07:17,781 --> 00:07:18,915
we're about to drop it.

145
00:07:18,949 --> 00:07:20,316
We're gonna tell
the governor, like,

146
00:07:20,350 --> 00:07:22,753
live on the-- like,
he won't even know.

147
00:07:22,786 --> 00:07:24,555
[Gov. Polis VO] Now, on the
elephant in the room -- 'cause

148
00:07:24,588 --> 00:07:26,790
this has been a big,
uh-- big deal in Colorado,

149
00:07:26,823 --> 00:07:28,324
as you know.

150
00:07:28,358 --> 00:07:30,561
We have taken our
kids to Casa Bonita,

151
00:07:30,594 --> 00:07:31,828
I grew up going there...

152
00:07:31,862 --> 00:07:32,963
[Matt laughs]

153
00:07:32,996 --> 00:07:34,397
Coloradans would
love any details about,

154
00:07:34,430 --> 00:07:37,333
you know, what's going on with
our iconic institution and...

155
00:07:37,367 --> 00:07:39,235
We've come to, uh...

156
00:07:39,269 --> 00:07:41,772
an agreement with the
owner, and we bought it.

157
00:07:41,805 --> 00:07:43,339
Congratulations!

158
00:07:43,373 --> 00:07:44,641

Oh my gosh, congratulations!

00:07:45,976 --> 00:07:47,410
That's awesome!

$3.1 million.

in a well-known season
seven episode of the show.

wanted to go to Casa Bonita!

171

00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:24,648
[sirens]
It's too late, fat ass.

178
00:08:24,681 --> 00:08:26,049
They'll be here in
less than a minute.

179
00:08:26,082 --> 00:08:27,818
[grunting]

180
00:08:27,851 --> 00:08:29,052
No!
Ahh!

181
00:08:29,085 --> 00:08:30,821
[Cartman] Less than a minute!
Less than a minute!

182
00:08:30,854 --> 00:08:34,190
[man] If, like, the younger self
of you could have known that you

183
00:08:34,224 --> 00:08:35,826
guys would be
owners of Casa Bonita...

184
00:08:35,859 --> 00:08:36,893
Oh...

185
00:08:36,927 --> 00:08:38,294
It's the greatest
achievement of all time.

186
00:08:38,327 --> 00:08:39,294
Yeah, [chuckling] I mean, I
don't know what could be better

187
00:08:39,329 --> 00:08:41,496
-- like, owning
the Broncos, maybe?

188
00:08:41,531 --> 00:08:42,599
Thank you!

189
00:08:42,633 --> 00:08:45,035
[grunts] Okay.
Gotta get to Black Bart's Cave!

190
00:08:45,068 --> 00:08:46,302
[grunting] Excuse me!
Excuse me!

191
00:08:46,336 --> 00:08:47,838
Coming through!
Black Bart's Cave!

192
00:08:47,871 --> 00:08:49,072
Oh, scary!

193
00:08:49,105 --> 00:08:50,240
Look, a skeleton!

194
00:08:50,273 --> 00:08:51,642
Oh, man, I'm so scared!

195
00:08:51,675 --> 00:08:52,909
Oh, cliff divers!

196
00:08:52,943 --> 00:08:55,511
C'mon, dive, asshole!

197
00:08:55,545 --> 00:08:57,413
Oh, awesome!

198
00:08:57,447 --> 00:08:59,215
[panting] Ooh, puppet show!

199
00:08:59,249 --> 00:09:00,651
Ahh!

200
00:09:00,684 --> 00:09:02,052
Cartman!
Whaa!

201
00:09:02,085 --> 00:09:03,720
[grunting and panting]

202
00:09:03,754 --> 00:09:06,089
All right, kid,
end of the line!

203
00:09:06,122 --> 00:09:07,423
Yay!

204
00:09:07,457 --> 00:09:09,693
Jesus Christ!

205
00:09:09,726 --> 00:09:12,663
[coughing and sputtering]

206
00:09:12,696 --> 00:09:15,031
Well, kid, you made
an entire town panic,

207
00:09:15,065 --> 00:09:16,900
you lost all your
friends, and now,

208
00:09:16,933 --> 00:09:19,435
you're going to
juvenile hall for a week!

209
00:09:19,469 --> 00:09:22,038
[scoffs] Was it worth it?

210
00:09:22,072 --> 00:09:24,074
Totally.

211
00:09:24,107 --> 00:09:26,743
*upbeat Latin music

212
00:09:26,777 --> 00:09:27,744
[male reporter VO]
Casa Bonita's gonna be

213
00:09:27,778 --> 00:09:29,746
[clapping] back in business!

214
00:09:29,780 --> 00:09:31,915
But hopefully, they don't
ruin the ambience of the place

215
00:09:31,948 --> 00:09:33,549
because, you know...

216
00:09:33,583 --> 00:09:35,686
Yeah.
That's what made it special.

217
00:09:35,719 --> 00:09:38,454
***

218
00:09:38,488 --> 00:09:41,491
[din of chatter]

219
00:09:44,928 --> 00:09:46,129
[woman] I think we're
all sort of worried that is it

220
00:09:46,162 --> 00:09:48,131
gonna be...

221
00:09:48,164 --> 00:09:50,100
our Casa Bonita?

222
00:09:50,133 --> 00:09:52,135
Even if it changes,
like, stuff has to change.

223
00:09:52,168 --> 00:09:53,469
I hope it looks
exactly the same.

224
00:09:53,503 --> 00:09:54,771
[laughs]

225
00:09:54,805 --> 00:09:56,272
I hope they don't
change anything.

226
00:09:56,306 --> 00:09:58,074
[man] I think it would be cool
to see the marriage of old with

227
00:09:58,108 --> 00:10:00,310
a little bit of the
South Park flair, I hope.

228
00:10:00,343 --> 00:10:02,145
And maybe make the
arcade area bigger.

229
00:10:02,178 --> 00:10:03,279
I can't wait to see
what they do with it.

230
00:10:03,313 --> 00:10:04,781
I will definitely be there.

231
00:10:04,815 --> 00:10:07,751
I think the one thing that
probably bothered me the most:

232
00:10:07,784 --> 00:10:10,320
your food just slides out from
the middle of nowhere through

233
00:10:10,353 --> 00:10:12,122
this little hole.

234
00:10:12,155 --> 00:10:14,290
It is very important
that the food comes out of

235
00:10:14,324 --> 00:10:16,927
the little hole.

236
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,395
And if it does not come
out of the little hole,

237
00:10:19,429 --> 00:10:21,131
we decided that you're fired.

238
00:10:21,164 --> 00:10:22,999
[female reporter VO] Dennis
says, "Just don't change the

239
00:10:23,033 --> 00:10:25,501
food; it's all part
of the experience."

240
00:10:25,535 --> 00:10:26,937
I don't know...

241
00:10:26,970 --> 00:10:29,405
This is gonna be
a big money sink,

242
00:10:29,439 --> 00:10:32,743
and it's probably the one thing
that the South Park guys do

243
00:10:32,776 --> 00:10:34,745
that's gonna be the
hill they die on;

244
00:10:34,778 --> 00:10:37,981
this thing is not
gonna be a success.

245
00:10:38,614 --> 00:10:41,384
[man] Okay!
Well, thank you very much!

246
00:10:42,552 --> 00:10:43,954
[Matt VO] We're
starting to, like,

247
00:10:43,987 --> 00:10:46,356
feel the pressure of what
Denver thinks about it.

248
00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:48,191
Everybody remembers
going to Casa Bonita,

249
00:10:48,224 --> 00:10:49,359
and when you grew
up in Colorado,

250
00:10:49,392 --> 00:10:51,627
you just remember
how awesome it was.

251
00:10:51,661 --> 00:10:54,330
*upbeat exciting music

252
00:10:54,364 --> 00:10:57,367
*We wanna walk on
down to Casa Bonita*

253
00:10:58,201 --> 00:11:00,370
*Gonna have a holiday...

254
00:11:00,403 --> 00:11:03,807
The first time I went to Casa
Bonita was the opening day in

255
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,009
1974.

256
00:11:06,042 --> 00:11:08,044
I'd just had my first baby.

257
00:11:08,078 --> 00:11:09,780
*Casa Bonita

258
00:11:09,813 --> 00:11:11,547
*Casa Bonita

259
00:11:11,581 --> 00:11:13,984
*The fun family
restaurant...*

260
00:11:14,017 --> 00:11:16,152
[laughing] And so,
picked the baby up,

261
00:11:16,186 --> 00:11:20,190
and the baby has
to see Casa Bonita.

262
00:11:20,223 --> 00:11:23,059
We can't even eat
we're so excited.

263
00:11:24,327 --> 00:11:26,229
People went nuts;
[chuckling] they loved it!

264
00:11:26,262 --> 00:11:28,631
They absolutely loved it.

265
00:11:28,664 --> 00:11:29,866
They'd never seen
anything like that,

266
00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:33,003
and so the crowds were insane.

267
00:11:33,036 --> 00:11:34,805
[Patricia VO] We were
just like, "Who made this?!"

268
00:11:34,838 --> 00:11:36,873
Yeah.
"Who thought of this?!"

269
00:11:36,907 --> 00:11:40,076
*cool swinging music

270
00:11:40,676 --> 00:11:43,013
[Bill VO] I decided to design
a little restaurant called

271
00:11:43,046 --> 00:11:44,047
Casa Bonita.

272
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,251
We moved to
Denver in about '73...

273
00:11:48,284 --> 00:11:52,622
to a closed 50,000-square-foot
Joslins Department Store.

274
00:11:53,289 --> 00:11:54,825
People would come
to me and say, "Son,

275
00:11:54,858 --> 00:11:57,060
you made a bad mistake."
[man laughs]

276
00:11:57,093 --> 00:12:00,831
[chuckling] "Nobody goes
to that shopping center."

277
00:12:00,864 --> 00:12:03,399
Every single person
from Denver said,

278
00:12:03,433 --> 00:12:07,303
"Why are you doing this?!

279
00:12:07,637 --> 00:12:09,239
This is not gonna work!

280
00:12:09,272 --> 00:12:11,641
Nobody's gonna come here!"

281
00:12:29,125 --> 00:12:31,627
[Paul L VO] When we
finished building the tower,

282
00:12:31,661 --> 00:12:35,665
then the question came up:
"What color is it gonna be?"

283
00:12:36,900 --> 00:12:39,235
And you can imagine
hearing people exclaim:

284
00:12:39,269 --> 00:12:41,304
"Pink?!"

285
00:12:41,337 --> 00:12:43,940
We painted that
tower "dusty pink" --

286
00:12:43,974 --> 00:12:46,109
was the name
of the color.

287
00:12:46,142 --> 00:12:48,344
It was different all right!

288
00:12:50,146 --> 00:12:52,115
[Paul V VO] As we were
building these atmospheres,

289
00:12:52,148 --> 00:12:55,651
we became more and more
fascinated with Mexico and

290
00:12:55,685 --> 00:12:57,720
made trips to
several parts of it.

291
00:12:57,753 --> 00:13:01,157
*upbeat curious music

292
00:13:21,511 --> 00:13:23,513
It took a long time.

293
00:13:24,347 --> 00:13:26,682
[Paul L VO] And then, when
we decided to build all the

294
00:13:26,716 --> 00:13:31,721
stalactites and stalagmites,
that was a really big challenge.

295
00:13:32,188 --> 00:13:34,324
[Frances VO] It just
kept taking longer,

296
00:13:34,357 --> 00:13:36,292
'cause Phil's a perfectionist.

297
00:13:36,326 --> 00:13:41,164
And finally, the banker said,
"I'm flying up next weekend,

298
00:13:41,197 --> 00:13:42,532
and I expect to eat food."

299
00:13:42,565 --> 00:13:44,500
[laughs]

300
00:13:44,534 --> 00:13:46,336
*upbeat Latin music

301
00:13:46,369 --> 00:13:48,804
We opened up with such a bang.

302
00:13:48,838 --> 00:13:52,208
There would be lines all the
way down to the end of the

303
00:13:52,242 --> 00:13:53,977
shopping center.

304
00:13:54,210 --> 00:13:56,346
[Bill VO] Casa became
the highest-volume Mexican

305
00:13:56,379 --> 00:13:57,780
restaurant of their day.

306
00:13:57,813 --> 00:14:01,151
In fact, Casa Bonita of Denver
still is the highest-volume

307
00:14:01,184 --> 00:14:02,953
Mexican restaurant in the world.

308
00:14:02,986 --> 00:14:06,756
It's the most visited attraction
in the state of Colorado.

309
00:14:09,425 --> 00:14:11,561
[Don VO] But 1982,

310
00:14:11,594 --> 00:14:15,365
Mr. Waugh sold it to a company
in England called Unigate.

311
00:14:15,398 --> 00:14:16,732
*ominous somber music

312
00:14:16,766 --> 00:14:19,235
[Bill VO] It was a mistake.

313
00:14:19,269 --> 00:14:21,571
The biggest mistake that
we ever made was selling the

314
00:14:21,604 --> 00:14:22,572
company.

315
00:14:22,605 --> 00:14:25,375
When the ink dried
on that contract,

316
00:14:25,408 --> 00:14:27,743
he and I were
on the concord,

317
00:14:27,777 --> 00:14:31,014
flying back to Britain to
see if they wanted to change

318
00:14:31,047 --> 00:14:32,015
their minds.

319
00:14:32,048 --> 00:14:35,051
After we got over
the shock of it...

320
00:14:35,451 --> 00:14:38,421
We never did get
over the shock of it.

321
00:14:40,590 --> 00:14:42,825
[Don VO] The guys who bought it
cut back on the maintenance they

322
00:14:42,858 --> 00:14:44,427
were doing on the restaurant.

323
00:14:44,460 --> 00:14:46,997
Things began to go downhill.

324
00:14:47,030 --> 00:14:49,832
***

325
00:14:49,865 --> 00:14:52,835
And it took a few decades
before it got to that point,

326
00:14:52,868 --> 00:14:54,370
but by the early
2000s, you know,

327
00:14:54,404 --> 00:14:57,440
you'd look at the floor
and it's all kinda trashed.

328
00:14:57,473 --> 00:14:59,275
[Dan VO] I remember I
went in, and I said,

329
00:14:59,309 --> 00:15:00,243
"There's duct tape.

330
00:15:00,276 --> 00:15:01,844
What's up with that?"

331
00:15:01,877 --> 00:15:05,048
And they're like, "They don't
give us some money to fix it."

332
00:15:05,915 --> 00:15:07,450
I mean, technically, I think
they probably should have been

333
00:15:07,483 --> 00:15:09,052
shut down for the
working conditions.

334
00:15:09,085 --> 00:15:11,421
There was tripping
hazards, carpet would peel up.

335
00:15:11,454 --> 00:15:13,589
I mean, the cave
smelled like urine.

336
00:15:13,623 --> 00:15:16,259
It was a hole by the
time I worked there.

337
00:15:16,726 --> 00:15:19,262
It became a running
joke of a place that, like,

338
00:15:19,295 --> 00:15:21,897
should be awesome
but is weird and this gross,

339
00:15:21,931 --> 00:15:23,233
rundown place.

340
00:15:23,266 --> 00:15:25,635
On the highest level --
the corporate level --

341
00:15:25,668 --> 00:15:28,238
they didn't care; it
wasn't being loved.

342
00:15:28,904 --> 00:15:32,275
[JB VO] I was so disturbed by
what I saw one night I wrote a

343
00:15:32,308 --> 00:15:35,878
letter to the
corporate office, and I asked,

344
00:15:35,911 --> 00:15:37,880
"Is there any way I can
have my name removed from the

345
00:15:37,913 --> 00:15:39,282
honor roll?"

346
00:15:39,315 --> 00:15:41,651
'Cause I no longer wanted
to be associated with it.

347
00:15:50,460 --> 00:15:53,729
My name's Scott
Shoemaker, I'm the...

348
00:15:53,763 --> 00:15:57,300
owners' rep, construction
manager for Matt and Trey.

349
00:15:57,333 --> 00:16:01,337
We are doing our first
walkthrough of Casa Bonita

350
00:16:01,371 --> 00:16:03,506
to see what going on inside.

351
00:16:03,539 --> 00:16:05,508
*mellow curious music

352
00:16:05,541 --> 00:16:08,911
50 percent of the smell in
this place is just this carpet;

353
00:16:08,944 --> 00:16:10,480
it has to be.

354
00:16:10,513 --> 00:16:11,947
Such a labyrinth.

355
00:16:11,981 --> 00:16:13,449
You can walk through and you
think you're somewhere and

356
00:16:13,483 --> 00:16:15,118
you're somewhere different.

357
00:16:15,151 --> 00:16:18,654
It's such a big facility; I
think it's 52,000 square feet.

358
00:16:18,688 --> 00:16:20,356
Crazy, right?

359
00:16:20,390 --> 00:16:22,692
All right, should we try to
make our way to the kitchen?

360
00:16:23,326 --> 00:16:25,928
As it is now, I'm more
concerned about back of house,

361
00:16:25,961 --> 00:16:27,530
when you get into
all the systems.

362
00:16:27,563 --> 00:16:31,701
This is a big sand filter, and I
think these are a couple of...

363
00:16:31,734 --> 00:16:33,403
boilers.

364
00:16:34,570 --> 00:16:36,339
Hey, problem solved;
there's the diagram,

365
00:16:36,372 --> 00:16:37,873
we're good!

366
00:16:37,907 --> 00:16:40,910
It's really just trying to
understand the guts of this.

367
00:16:41,977 --> 00:16:44,880
So here's where
the divers diver in.

368
00:16:44,914 --> 00:16:46,882
[woman] And then this ladder
goes all the way to the top of

369
00:16:46,916 --> 00:16:48,718
the waterfall.
[Scott] Yup.

370
00:16:48,751 --> 00:16:50,520
[woman] But, yeah, this
is where they come out.

371
00:16:50,553 --> 00:16:53,123
[Scott] They have four--
three feet to get through here?

372
00:16:53,156 --> 00:16:54,757
[woman] Something like that.

373
00:16:55,425 --> 00:16:57,693
I think it's a little bit harder
coming through when we're in

374
00:16:57,727 --> 00:16:59,895
costume versus the dive shows.

375
00:16:59,929 --> 00:17:02,198
Like, I would be
going in as Bertha,

376
00:17:02,232 --> 00:17:05,568
wearing pretty much this,
trying to get through all that.

377
00:17:05,601 --> 00:17:06,835
Wow!

378
00:17:06,869 --> 00:17:08,338
Yeah, and it's kind of a
tight squeeze in there,

379
00:17:08,371 --> 00:17:10,540
so it's a little
[laughing] claustrophobic.

380
00:17:11,774 --> 00:17:14,244
So the divers dive off...

381
00:17:15,777 --> 00:17:18,714
underwater, they swim through
here with all these mechanical

382
00:17:18,747 --> 00:17:21,016
pipes, trying not to get
their suit hooked on them...

383
00:17:21,050 --> 00:17:22,318
[Rochelle VO] Yeah.

384
00:17:22,352 --> 00:17:23,886
[Scott VO] They
immediately step into here,

385
00:17:23,919 --> 00:17:27,423
and there's hundreds of amps of
power while your feet are wet on

386
00:17:27,457 --> 00:17:30,226
this concrete floor directly
to your left right here.

387
00:17:30,260 --> 00:17:32,995
And then, to clean up, they
shower in this luxury shower

388
00:17:33,028 --> 00:17:34,564
right here.
[Rochelle] Mm-hm.

389
00:17:35,465 --> 00:17:36,632
Yeah.

390
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,534
[man] Wow.
[Rochelle laughs]

391
00:17:38,568 --> 00:17:40,603
It's the single most dangerous
thing I've ever seen in my

392
00:17:40,636 --> 00:17:41,871
whole life.

393
00:17:43,973 --> 00:17:45,575
[Scott] Yeah, we should
call it the Death Room.

394
00:17:45,608 --> 00:17:47,410
[Rochelle laughs]

395
00:17:51,647 --> 00:17:53,249
There's a lot of
deferred maintenance in here,

396
00:17:53,283 --> 00:17:55,385
so I think some of
the systems we'll see,

397
00:17:55,418 --> 00:17:56,786
we're like,
"That's how that works?

398
00:17:56,819 --> 00:17:58,388
Really?
For...

399
00:17:58,421 --> 00:18:00,590
50 years, it's been
working like that?"

400
00:18:01,591 --> 00:18:04,427
*curious music

401
00:18:04,460 --> 00:18:06,028
[buzzing]

402
00:18:06,061 --> 00:18:07,630
What's that
buzzing noise?

403
00:18:07,663 --> 00:18:10,433
It's this electrical
thing back here.

404
00:18:10,733 --> 00:18:12,668
[loud buzzing]

405
00:18:14,637 --> 00:18:16,206
[laughter]

406
00:18:16,239 --> 00:18:19,609
[buzzing continues]

407
00:18:19,642 --> 00:18:21,010
Oh, whoa.

408
00:18:22,011 --> 00:18:24,680
***

409
00:18:27,116 --> 00:18:28,418
Wow, look at this.

410
00:18:30,620 --> 00:18:33,489
[Scott, laughing]
Right! Right, yeah.

411
00:18:34,089 --> 00:18:38,060
I know that they wanna open the
place up in six to nine months,

412
00:18:38,093 --> 00:18:40,630
and then after I
stopped laughing...

413
00:18:40,663 --> 00:18:42,232
I was like, "Okay, well,
we'll see what we can do."

414
00:18:42,265 --> 00:18:43,466
[laughs]

415
00:18:43,866 --> 00:18:46,469
We get all of our experts
in here -- subcontractors,

416
00:18:46,502 --> 00:18:49,639
consultants -- pulling this
stuff down to really get the

417
00:18:49,672 --> 00:18:52,342
extent of what's wrong.

418
00:18:55,845 --> 00:18:58,814
[man VO] What do you hope to
see in the new Casa Bonita?

419
00:18:58,848 --> 00:19:01,617
Just reflections
back to the original,

420
00:19:01,651 --> 00:19:02,685
better food...

421
00:19:02,718 --> 00:19:05,621
The food was not great for me.

422
00:19:05,655 --> 00:19:07,657
The food is...

423
00:19:07,690 --> 00:19:08,658
really horrible.

424
00:19:08,691 --> 00:19:11,294
I know that they have
tacos and sopapillas,

425
00:19:11,327 --> 00:19:12,495
and they're fire!

426
00:19:12,528 --> 00:19:13,929
No, I'm kidding.
The food sucks.

427
00:19:13,963 --> 00:19:14,864
The food?!

428
00:19:14,897 --> 00:19:17,267
It's like that frozen food!

429
00:19:17,300 --> 00:19:19,669
Everyone in Colorado would
love to take their kids to

430
00:19:19,702 --> 00:19:22,037
Casa Bonita if the food
wasn't so fucking gross.

431
00:19:22,071 --> 00:19:26,509
We sort of put out feelers,
and this name kept coming up.

432
00:19:26,542 --> 00:19:27,643
This name, just "Loca."

433
00:19:27,677 --> 00:19:29,679
That's all we kept
hearing was "Loca."

434
00:19:29,712 --> 00:19:33,649
*upbeat Latin music

435
00:19:33,683 --> 00:19:37,320
[Dana VO] I'm Dana Rodriguez,
chef and owner of Work & Class,

436
00:19:37,353 --> 00:19:40,356
Super Mega Bien, Cantina Loca.

437
00:19:49,098 --> 00:19:50,700
And one day, I blew
up, and I was like,

438
00:19:50,733 --> 00:19:52,702
"Well, fuck you fuckin' fuck!"

439
00:19:52,735 --> 00:19:54,870
He say, "You're fuckin' loco!"

440
00:19:54,904 --> 00:19:57,507
And I say, "No,
it's fuckin' 'loca.'"

441
00:20:03,212 --> 00:20:04,714
Just so you know!

442
00:20:08,117 --> 00:20:11,721
When I meet Trey the first time,
he was eating the green chili.

443
00:20:11,754 --> 00:20:13,723
I keep looking at
him, just, like,

444
00:20:13,756 --> 00:20:15,358
staring at him to
see his reaction,

445
00:20:15,391 --> 00:20:17,593
and he's very
quiet, he's very...

446
00:20:17,627 --> 00:20:19,529
you know, he was
eating, and I'm like,

447
00:20:19,562 --> 00:20:21,631
"Do you like it or
you didn't like it?!"

448
00:20:22,197 --> 00:20:24,099
[Trey VO] I was just
like, "Oh, she's awesome.

449
00:20:24,133 --> 00:20:25,768
The food is amazing."

450
00:20:26,035 --> 00:20:28,904
I just felt in my gut, I'm like,
"This is the right person."

451
00:20:28,938 --> 00:20:29,905
Cheers!

452
00:20:29,939 --> 00:20:31,774
Thank you so much!

453
00:20:34,143 --> 00:20:36,178
[female reporter VO] Part of the
new beginning for Casa Bonita:

454
00:20:36,211 --> 00:20:39,749
today, we learned the new owners
have hired a new executive chef.

455
00:20:39,782 --> 00:20:41,617
[male reporter VO] Dana
Rodriguez is a three-time

456
00:20:41,651 --> 00:20:43,753
James Beard Award nominee.

457
00:20:43,786 --> 00:20:47,757
She says the idea is to change
nothing and improve everything.

458
00:20:47,790 --> 00:20:52,562
*upbeat Latin music

459
00:20:58,634 --> 00:21:02,705
*band playing
festive music*

460
00:21:02,738 --> 00:21:04,039
[Dana VO] We're here in Oaxaca.

461
00:21:04,073 --> 00:21:08,043
Oaxaca is South Mexico,
and it's a beautiful town.

462
00:21:08,077 --> 00:21:10,780
I want Trey to come
over here and understand,

463
00:21:10,813 --> 00:21:12,615
you know, like,
what we do here --

464
00:21:12,648 --> 00:21:16,586
learning our food,
drinks, and culture.

465
00:21:16,619 --> 00:21:21,624
*bouncing Latin music

466
00:21:22,925 --> 00:21:23,826
[Trey VO] For me, it was
kind of like the same as

467
00:21:23,859 --> 00:21:25,795
The Book of Mormon.

468
00:21:25,828 --> 00:21:27,597
I was like, "I need
to just go to Uganda,"

469
00:21:27,630 --> 00:21:29,999
so I just planned a
trip and went there.

470
00:21:30,032 --> 00:21:31,467
And, um...

471
00:21:31,867 --> 00:21:33,403
You know, and it's not like
I'm trying-- it was like,

472
00:21:33,436 --> 00:21:34,770
"No, I need this to be...

473
00:21:34,804 --> 00:21:36,406
authentically
Ugandan," [laughing] you know,

474
00:21:36,439 --> 00:21:38,774
or anything like that,
'cause it's obviously not,

475
00:21:38,808 --> 00:21:40,643
and it's not like we're
trying to make Casa Bonita

476
00:21:40,676 --> 00:21:42,478
authentically Mexico.

477
00:21:42,512 --> 00:21:45,448
It's just like, you know,
you go and you get ideas.

478
00:21:55,024 --> 00:21:56,158
[Dana] Aw!
[chuckles]

479
00:21:56,191 --> 00:21:57,292
And I was like,
"Well, I hope so, honey."

480
00:21:57,326 --> 00:21:59,729
[laughter]

481
00:22:00,663 --> 00:22:04,266
*mellow curious music

482
00:22:04,299 --> 00:22:06,436
[Scott] We're really trying
to get everything opened up.

483
00:22:06,469 --> 00:22:10,005
It's such a complex space that
you gotta drop the ceiling tiles

484
00:22:10,039 --> 00:22:12,041
to see what's above the ceiling.

485
00:22:12,475 --> 00:22:15,678
[tools whirring and buzzing]

486
00:22:16,846 --> 00:22:17,813
What is this stuff?

487
00:22:17,847 --> 00:22:20,450
Is this stuff
oozing out of the crack?

488
00:22:20,483 --> 00:22:21,884
It's like a foam!

489
00:22:21,917 --> 00:22:23,218
[Scott VO] It's
an amazing space.

490
00:22:23,252 --> 00:22:26,722
It's just really hard to
retrofit a building of 30 years

491
00:22:26,756 --> 00:22:28,223
of deferred maintenance.

492
00:22:28,257 --> 00:22:30,025
When this was all
installed, for the most part,

493
00:22:30,059 --> 00:22:31,861
it was done in, what, the '70s?

494
00:22:31,894 --> 00:22:32,895
[man] '73?

495
00:22:32,928 --> 00:22:34,864
Rules were a lot different then.

496
00:22:34,897 --> 00:22:36,532
Back in those days,
it wasn't illegal,

497
00:22:36,566 --> 00:22:38,868
but today, it is illegal.

498
00:22:38,901 --> 00:22:41,537
If you look at that, that
pipe right there is busted

499
00:22:41,571 --> 00:22:42,872
right there.

500
00:22:42,905 --> 00:22:45,741
This whole entire
building's not done.

501
00:22:45,775 --> 00:22:47,510
It's all gonna have to be done.

502
00:22:47,543 --> 00:22:52,482
There's 11 or 12 major
HVAC units on the roof.

503
00:22:52,515 --> 00:22:55,250
I don't think any of 'em
are really salvageable.

504
00:22:55,284 --> 00:22:57,920
Wall to wall flex duct.

505
00:22:57,953 --> 00:23:00,690
How they crammed
all that in there...

506
00:23:00,723 --> 00:23:02,858
So, yeah, this is
the main kitchen,

507
00:23:02,892 --> 00:23:06,496
and our opinion is pretty
much this entire floor...

508
00:23:06,529 --> 00:23:08,564
is gonna have to go away.

509
00:23:09,532 --> 00:23:10,866
What a job.

510
00:23:10,900 --> 00:23:12,868
I-- I don't know how many
people got hurt in here,

511
00:23:12,902 --> 00:23:15,738
but I could imagine that this
is a problem where the rocks are

512
00:23:15,771 --> 00:23:18,073
really right under
your dive platform.

513
00:23:18,107 --> 00:23:20,910
You peek your head over the
rock and there's live 120-volt

514
00:23:20,943 --> 00:23:24,179
electrical sitting right there,
literally about in contact with

515
00:23:24,213 --> 00:23:25,380
the splash zone.

516
00:23:25,414 --> 00:23:26,749
Very, very surprising.

517
00:23:26,782 --> 00:23:28,350
So here's the water
level right here,

518
00:23:28,383 --> 00:23:30,720
and there's lightbulbs --
high-voltage lightbulbs --

519
00:23:30,753 --> 00:23:32,121
right here.

520
00:23:32,154 --> 00:23:33,288
Yeah, so if you're not
hitting your head on the rock,

521
00:23:33,322 --> 00:23:35,157
you're probably
getting electrocuted.

522
00:23:37,326 --> 00:23:39,194
There's a lot of dead
pigeons on the roof here,

523
00:23:39,228 --> 00:23:41,931
and there's a hawk that lives up
there on top of that statue or

524
00:23:41,964 --> 00:23:43,766
around it, and it
just kills 'em,

525
00:23:43,799 --> 00:23:45,835
and just drops 'em everywhere.

526
00:23:46,168 --> 00:23:48,003
[hawk screeches]

527
00:23:49,939 --> 00:23:52,842
Over here is another
awesome pigeon graveyard.

528
00:23:53,776 --> 00:23:54,944
[man] Oh, yeah.

529
00:23:54,977 --> 00:23:57,412
***

530
00:23:57,446 --> 00:23:59,949
So things like this, with all
this sort of pigeon shit down

531
00:23:59,982 --> 00:24:01,584
here, we've gotta
get that cleaned up.

532
00:24:01,617 --> 00:24:03,619
This is the kitchen right below.

533
00:24:05,454 --> 00:24:07,990
We've got a meeting with Trey
when he's back from Mexico to

534
00:24:08,023 --> 00:24:10,860
sort of give him the bad news.

535
00:24:11,460 --> 00:24:13,328
This thing is way too expensive.

536
00:24:13,362 --> 00:24:16,966
With the current budget,
we can't do all this work.

537

up the movie Fun in Acapulco

with Elvis.

541
00:24:35,951 --> 00:24:37,252
I was like, "There
was an Acapulco one?!"

542
00:24:37,286 --> 00:24:38,353
He was like, "Yeah,
and they're, like,

543
00:24:38,387 --> 00:24:39,589
diving off the
cliffs and stuff!"

544
00:24:39,622 --> 00:24:40,990

*dramatic music

546
00:24:47,830 --> 00:24:49,832
And then, the music in
that, I was just like,

547
00:24:49,865 --> 00:24:51,801
"Oh my God, this perfect!"

548
00:24:51,834 --> 00:24:55,037

it's-- so it's...

This is Victor.

587

[Scott] Uh, we've got one of our
owners showing up on site here,

588
00:27:03,432 --> 00:27:05,100
so be on the lookout, let
me know when they get here,

589
00:27:05,134 --> 00:27:06,435
please.

590
00:27:07,536 --> 00:27:08,938
[Victor over radio]
They're on their way;

591
00:27:08,971 --> 00:27:10,405
they just got out the vehicle
and they're headed into the

592
00:27:10,439 --> 00:27:12,541
building right now as we speak.

593
00:27:13,642 --> 00:27:15,344
[Scott] Well, I think we
were just gonna have you, uh,

594
00:27:15,377 --> 00:27:17,346
just sort of
start at the front.

595
00:27:17,379 --> 00:27:19,982
Tell me, while we're here,
tell me about the ceiling.

596
00:27:20,015 --> 00:27:21,250
So...

597
00:27:21,283 --> 00:27:23,786
[Scott] The HVAC in this
place is-- is trashed.

598
00:27:23,819 --> 00:27:26,188
It-- it's 20 years
past its useful life.

599
00:27:26,221 --> 00:27:28,824
And so just the HVAC,
we're looking at, like,

600
00:27:28,858 --> 00:27:30,025
four million bucks?

601
00:27:30,059 --> 00:27:31,794
Four million for HVAC;

602
00:27:31,827 --> 00:27:34,163
um, to do
electrical in this place,

603
00:27:34,196 --> 00:27:36,198
bring it up to
code, two million;

604
00:27:36,231 --> 00:27:38,200
2.3 in plumbing;

605
00:27:38,233 --> 00:27:39,201
you know, doing
a new kitchen,

606
00:27:39,234 --> 00:27:41,003
that's probably
in the two range;

607
00:27:41,036 --> 00:27:45,540
the pool and the front fountain,
just to put new equipment in and

608
00:27:45,574 --> 00:27:49,244
sort of clean it up is three
quarters of a million dollars.

609
00:27:55,250 --> 00:27:58,153
So, looking at HVAC stuff...

610
00:27:58,187 --> 00:27:59,721
[Matt] Uh-huh.

611
00:27:59,755 --> 00:28:02,657
This is just an example of what
every single air duct looks like

612
00:28:02,691 --> 00:28:04,226
here.
[Matt laughs]

613
00:28:04,259 --> 00:28:07,129
[Trey] Um...
[chuckling] so...

614
00:28:07,162 --> 00:28:08,463
Matt and I would laugh
like that no matter what,

615
00:28:08,497 --> 00:28:10,465
even if it was like, "I
just got back from my cancer

616
00:28:10,499 --> 00:28:12,201
screening..."
[laughing] Right, right!

617
00:28:12,234 --> 00:28:13,836
[both laugh]

618
00:28:13,869 --> 00:28:16,638
[Matt laughs]

619
00:28:16,671 --> 00:28:19,241
[Trey] That's what the inside of
all 10 or 11 of the air handling

620
00:28:19,274 --> 00:28:20,375
units look like.

621
00:28:20,409 --> 00:28:22,177
[Matt] Ooh, Jesus.

622
00:28:22,211 --> 00:28:24,013
[Scott] That's what people have
been breathing in here for 20

623
00:28:24,046 --> 00:28:25,047
years, probably, yeah.

624
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,816
[Matt] Wow, fuck,
look at that.

625
00:28:26,849 --> 00:28:28,217
That's so gross.

626
00:28:28,250 --> 00:28:30,485
We got in there, and it
was "We're gonna make this

627
00:28:30,519 --> 00:28:32,221
better and this better and
this better and this better,"

628
00:28:32,254 --> 00:28:34,589
and it's like,
"Well, first of all,

629
00:28:34,623 --> 00:28:36,859
that's gonna kill people,
that's gonna kill people,

630
00:28:36,892 --> 00:28:38,160
that's gonna kill people."

631
00:28:38,193 --> 00:28:40,195
This beam is disconnected; it
had been rotted to the point

632
00:28:40,229 --> 00:28:43,698
where it had flaked off,
not supporting anything.

633
00:28:43,732 --> 00:28:46,836
There was going to be
catastrophic failure.

634
00:28:46,869 --> 00:28:48,603
Just picture this place
filled with kids as the place

635
00:28:48,637 --> 00:28:50,005
collapses.

636
00:28:50,039 --> 00:28:52,274
It wasn't a matter of if,
it was a matter of when.

637
00:28:52,307 --> 00:28:56,245
So there was a leak, so they
hung a bucket with a string,

638
00:28:56,278 --> 00:29:00,082
they put a garden hose on it,
and they wired the garden hose

639
00:29:00,115 --> 00:29:02,284
over a sink, and that's
their leak mitigation:

640
00:29:02,317 --> 00:29:04,086
a bucket with a garden
hose over the sink.

641
00:29:04,119 --> 00:29:06,088
This is what everything looks
like behind everything in the

642
00:29:06,121 --> 00:29:07,722
kitchen.

643
00:29:10,893 --> 00:29:13,295
And, by the way, that's what
all the soda was running through

644
00:29:13,328 --> 00:29:14,897
when they closed a
year and a half ago.

645
00:29:14,930 --> 00:29:17,266
Pull this out, and all
the wood behind it...

646
00:29:17,299 --> 00:29:20,235
It's all just rotted, because
it's been there for years.

647
00:29:20,269 --> 00:29:21,436
Are you getting
my face right now?

648
00:29:21,470 --> 00:29:23,472
[laughing] Yeah.
Get-- get my face.

649
00:29:23,505 --> 00:29:24,874
[laughter]

650
00:29:24,907 --> 00:29:26,575
Get my face.

651
00:29:28,310 --> 00:29:29,912
I'm just gonna do long blinks.

652
00:29:29,945 --> 00:29:31,113
[Scott] Yeah.

653
00:29:31,746 --> 00:29:33,115
[Trey VO] What
started as just, like,

654
00:29:33,148 --> 00:29:36,285
"Okay, we're gonna have to
just do a lot of structural work

655
00:29:36,318 --> 00:29:40,755
first" has turned into millions
and millions of dollars,

656
00:29:40,789 --> 00:29:43,092
just to make the place...

657
00:29:43,125 --> 00:29:44,459
livable,

658
00:29:44,493 --> 00:29:49,164
before we can put one
penny into making it cool again.

659
00:29:49,198 --> 00:29:50,732
[Scott] And when you get over to
where the kitchen zone is here,

660
00:29:50,765 --> 00:29:53,768
you can see there was a fire
over here that we found behind

661
00:29:53,802 --> 00:29:54,904
the wall.

662
00:29:54,937 --> 00:29:56,939
[Trey] The pool is so fucked.

663
00:29:56,972 --> 00:29:57,940
So, I don't know if
you can see that...

664
00:29:57,973 --> 00:29:59,041
[Matt laughs]

665
00:29:59,074 --> 00:30:00,142
[Scott] You can see
the cracks down there,

666
00:30:00,175 --> 00:30:01,143
and see how those
cracks are wet?

667
00:30:01,176 --> 00:30:02,311
[Trey] Yeah.

668
00:30:02,344 --> 00:30:04,146
[Scott] That's all
groundwater seeping in.

669
00:30:04,179 --> 00:30:05,314
[Matt] Wow.

670
00:30:07,516 --> 00:30:09,584
[laughter]

671
00:30:09,618 --> 00:30:10,352
All right.
[Matt] All right.

672
00:30:10,385 --> 00:30:11,286
All right.

673
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:12,354
[Matt] I'll call
you later, okay?

674
00:30:12,387 --> 00:30:13,956
Okay.
[Matt] Thanks. All right, bye.

675
00:30:15,357 --> 00:30:18,327
I better go start
making some new TV shows.

676
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,195
[laughs]

677
00:30:21,997 --> 00:30:23,798
[Scott] We originally thought
the budget would be around

678
00:30:23,832 --> 00:30:26,335
six and a half million dollars.

679
00:30:26,368 --> 00:30:28,337
But with this much
infrastructure replacement,

680
00:30:28,370 --> 00:30:30,940
it's way bigger than we thought.

681
00:30:30,973 --> 00:30:32,341
We started adding it
all up, we're like,

682
00:30:32,374 --> 00:30:34,209
"What's the very
least we can spend?"

683
00:30:34,243 --> 00:30:37,379
And at this point, we're
looking at over $20 million.

684
00:30:39,048 --> 00:30:40,782
Well, why don't you
and I just go talk?

685
00:30:40,815 --> 00:30:42,384
[Scott] Yup.
'Kay.

686
00:30:42,417 --> 00:30:44,186
We can go in the office.

687
00:30:57,832 --> 00:31:00,202
[Scott] We've inherited
this building that is fucked.

688
00:31:00,235 --> 00:31:01,736
[Trey] Yeah.

689
00:31:01,770 --> 00:31:02,637
[Scott] Like, pipes are clogged
and drained and piped into the

690
00:31:02,671 --> 00:31:03,638
wrong place.

691
00:31:03,672 --> 00:31:05,574
It's stuff people can't see.

692
00:31:17,086 --> 00:31:18,387
[Matt VO] When we
started tearing out the walls,

693
00:31:18,420 --> 00:31:20,655
we realized the whole
thing needed to be replaced --

694
00:31:20,689 --> 00:31:22,557
basically every system.

695
00:31:22,591 --> 00:31:24,226
It's like...

696
00:31:24,259 --> 00:31:25,660
five times more money than we
thought we were gonna have to

697
00:31:25,694 --> 00:31:26,661
put in.

698
00:31:26,695 --> 00:31:28,863
[man] Was there an
inspection, like,

699
00:31:28,897 --> 00:31:29,764
when you bought the place?

700
00:31:29,798 --> 00:31:31,033
Like, did you, like...?

701
00:31:31,066 --> 00:31:32,601
No, 'cause we bought
it out of bankruptcy,

702
00:31:32,634 --> 00:31:34,436
and it was kind
of an as-is thing,

703
00:31:34,469 --> 00:31:36,371
so we knew we were gonna--
we knew we were gonna inherit

704
00:31:36,405 --> 00:31:39,041
something that was fucked up,
but we didn't know it was near

705
00:31:39,074 --> 00:31:40,875
that fucked up, you know?

706
00:31:40,909 --> 00:31:43,412
And honestly, the landlord kinda
should have said something about

707
00:31:43,445 --> 00:31:45,414
that stuff, you
know what I mean?

708
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,416
The problem is
that, at this point,

709
00:31:47,449 --> 00:31:48,783
I'm like,

710
00:31:48,817 --> 00:31:52,454
"If we can't do it, I
honestly don't know who can."

711
00:31:52,487 --> 00:31:55,390
[man] So is it, like, a
possibility that it just...

712
00:31:55,424 --> 00:31:57,026
never opens, it just, like...

713
00:31:57,059 --> 00:31:58,293
Yeah.
[man] It's...

714
00:31:58,327 --> 00:31:59,428
yeah.

715
00:32:00,262 --> 00:32:01,930
It is.

716
00:32:07,636 --> 00:32:10,872
As ridiculous as it sounds,
it's better for us to take a

717
00:32:10,905 --> 00:32:14,276
10-million-dollar
loss than to keep going,

718
00:32:14,309 --> 00:32:16,445
'cause that's how crazy
expensive we found out it was

719
00:32:16,478 --> 00:32:18,447
gonna actually be.

720
00:32:19,848 --> 00:32:23,285
The smart thing to do
here is to get out.

721
00:32:26,321 --> 00:32:28,457
[female reporter VO] Casa Bonita
is working on its comeback after

722
00:32:28,490 --> 00:32:30,292
the creators of South
Park bought it out of

723
00:32:30,325 --> 00:32:31,726
bankruptcy court.

724
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,329
I'm really looking forward
to whatever Trey and Matt

725
00:32:34,363 --> 00:32:35,330
have planned.

726
00:32:35,364 --> 00:32:37,266
Everyone's super
excited, um,

727
00:32:37,299 --> 00:32:38,667
the community is
buzzing about it.

728
00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:41,470
Employees are being asked -- and
paid -- to do other work around

729
00:32:41,503 --> 00:32:44,939
the community until
those doors open again.

730
00:32:46,341 --> 00:32:47,942
[Luis VO] They're all excited
to go back to Casa Bonita;

731
00:32:47,976 --> 00:32:49,311
we all are.

732
00:32:49,344 --> 00:32:51,446
We wanna see what happened to
our restaurant and what the

733
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,315
future brings to it.

734
00:32:53,982 --> 00:32:55,450
We like it say it's our
restaurant 'cause it's our

735
00:32:55,484 --> 00:32:58,687
family, and that's one big
thing that we're grateful for:

736
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,955
that they've let us stay
together throughout this whole

737
00:33:00,989 --> 00:33:02,324
experience.

738
00:33:03,492 --> 00:33:06,361
[Trey VO] It's starting to
look like it might not happen,

739
00:33:07,329 --> 00:33:10,765
which makes it all the
worse when people are like,

740
00:33:10,799 --> 00:33:12,467
"Oh, you guys are great,
thank you for doing that!"

741
00:33:12,501 --> 00:33:13,768
And we're literally
gonna have to go,

742
00:33:13,802 --> 00:33:15,970
"Yeah, you know what?
Never mind, we can't."

743
00:33:16,004 --> 00:33:19,508
*melancholy curious music

744
00:33:19,541 --> 00:33:21,009
[woman VO] What's the latest?

745
00:33:21,042 --> 00:33:22,311
When can we go back to see
what you guys have done with the

746
00:33:22,344 --> 00:33:23,345
place?

747
00:33:23,378 --> 00:33:24,346
Have you ever seen
Kitchen Nightmares?

748
00:33:24,379 --> 00:33:25,714
[laughs]

749
00:33:25,747 --> 00:33:29,551
So imagine the very, very, very
worst one of those you could

750
00:33:29,584 --> 00:33:31,553
possibly ever imagine.

751
00:33:32,621 --> 00:33:35,357
Any savvy
businessperson would say,

752
00:33:35,390 --> 00:33:36,958
"Get out now!"

753
00:33:36,991 --> 00:33:38,527
You know?
[laughs]

754
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,329
But I'm not savvy.

755
00:33:41,530 --> 00:33:43,565
And it was just like,
"That's not the point."

756
00:33:43,598 --> 00:33:46,135
It's trying to save
something; it was trying to

757
00:33:46,168 --> 00:33:48,370
restore something
and bring it back.

758
00:33:48,937 --> 00:33:51,206
And also, it starts
from a personal place;

759
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,408
I was like, "This
was my childhood," right?

760
00:33:53,442 --> 00:33:56,545
And I want it for my daughter,
I want it for her grandkids,

761
00:33:56,578 --> 00:33:59,448
I want it for my friends' kids.

762
00:34:01,049 --> 00:34:04,519
Matt's always been the
money guy in our partnership.

763
00:34:04,553 --> 00:34:05,754
I was like, "So,
what are we gonna do?"

764
00:34:05,787 --> 00:34:07,422
And Matt said kind
like, "I don't know."

765
00:34:07,456 --> 00:34:08,557
I was like, "Oh, you don't know!

766
00:34:08,590 --> 00:34:10,525
So that means there's a chance!"

767
00:34:10,559 --> 00:34:13,728
We hired a few extra people who
knew stuff about restaurants,

768
00:34:13,762 --> 00:34:15,264
and we started
doing, like, "Okay,

769
00:34:15,297 --> 00:34:17,465
well, this is how much we think
the restaurant could make."

770
00:34:18,099 --> 00:34:20,535
If we do it right, there
is a viable business there,

771
00:34:20,568 --> 00:34:22,604
so at least it was
like, "Oh, okay.

772
00:34:22,637 --> 00:34:25,606
Like, this isn't just a...

773
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:26,840
for-sure money loser."

774
00:34:26,874 --> 00:34:29,577
I saw in Matt that
he's like, oh, he might--

775
00:34:29,611 --> 00:34:30,579
he might say
we can still do it,

776
00:34:30,612 --> 00:34:31,579
[laughing] you
know what I mean?

777
00:34:31,613 --> 00:34:32,914
And then...

778
00:34:32,947 --> 00:34:35,384
and then, we decided, you
know, let's go forward.

779
00:34:35,416 --> 00:34:37,050
It's really dumb; we should...

780
00:34:37,085 --> 00:34:38,220
[Matt laughs]
We should bail.

781
00:34:38,253 --> 00:34:40,622
We absolutely should bail
and stop spending money,

782
00:34:40,655 --> 00:34:41,789
but we're just
committed now, so...

783
00:34:41,823 --> 00:34:43,057
Yeah, we just have
to do it now, so...

784
00:34:43,090 --> 00:34:44,626
Yeah.
[laughs]

785
00:34:44,659 --> 00:34:45,960
[Trey VO] So we're
in; we're in deep.

786
00:34:45,994 --> 00:34:47,829
[laughs]

787
00:34:56,471 --> 00:34:58,973
With all the money in the world,
what I would do is do some

788
00:34:59,007 --> 00:35:01,576
forced perspective,
more buildings up there,

789
00:35:01,610 --> 00:35:04,045
you know, so you make these
look like they're two and three

790
00:35:04,078 --> 00:35:07,449
stories that have a bit of a
forced-perspective look to it.

791
00:35:08,016 --> 00:35:09,117
Let's look!

792
00:35:09,150 --> 00:35:09,651
This part of the
door could be open...

793
00:35:09,684 --> 00:35:10,719
[Trey] Yeah.

794
00:35:10,752 --> 00:35:11,720
And have a little
bit of story or...

795
00:35:11,753 --> 00:35:13,455
Hey, guys!
Welcome to Casa Bonita!

796
00:35:13,488 --> 00:35:16,225
[laughter]

797
00:35:16,258 --> 00:35:18,593
I reckon you're pretty hungry!

798
00:35:18,627 --> 00:35:19,661
And we can't
afford to build that,

799
00:35:19,694 --> 00:35:21,663
so let's just get
a dude to do that.

800
00:35:21,696 --> 00:35:23,097
[laughing] Right,
right, right.

801
00:35:23,131 --> 00:35:24,098
[laughter]

802
00:35:24,132 --> 00:35:25,467
Well, tarnation!

803
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:27,469
I got me some good tacos!

804
00:35:27,502 --> 00:35:28,403
[laughter]

805
00:35:28,437 --> 00:35:31,105
I could use an
enchilada, partner!

806
00:35:32,474 --> 00:35:33,842
[mimics gunshot]

807
00:35:33,875 --> 00:35:36,511
But at this point, they
also have a host saying--

808
00:35:36,545 --> 00:35:37,612
Tarnation!

809
00:35:37,646 --> 00:35:39,681
You're almost there, partner!
[laughs]

810
00:35:39,714 --> 00:35:40,915
But they've got
a host saying--

811
00:35:40,949 --> 00:35:41,916
Tarnation!

812
00:35:41,950 --> 00:35:43,885
You're almost there, partner!

813
00:35:44,152 --> 00:35:45,820
Tarnation!

814
00:35:45,854 --> 00:35:47,656
Howdy, partners!

815
00:35:47,689 --> 00:35:49,458
Welcome to Casa Bonita!

816
00:35:49,491 --> 00:35:51,092
What was that up there?
Do we know?

817
00:35:51,125 --> 00:35:52,126
That was nothing.

818
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:53,094
[Trey] That is
definitely tarnation.

819
00:35:53,127 --> 00:35:53,762
[Scott] That's a tarnation.

820
00:35:53,795 --> 00:35:55,630
I mean, a triple tarnation.

821
00:35:55,664 --> 00:35:56,631
[laughter]

822
00:35:56,665 --> 00:35:58,500
Tar-- tar-- tarnation!

823
00:35:58,533 --> 00:36:00,502
[laughs]

824
00:36:03,137 --> 00:36:04,273
Is that?
That is that?

825
00:36:04,306 --> 00:36:04,806
Okay.

826
00:36:04,839 --> 00:36:05,807
Sopapillas!

827
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:07,141
Can I get some
sopapillas, please?!

828
00:36:07,175 --> 00:36:10,312
[Trey] I had an idea that
that table never gets sold,

829
00:36:10,345 --> 00:36:12,146
and that's a photo opp.

830
00:36:12,180 --> 00:36:14,483
That table's not for sale.

831
00:36:14,516 --> 00:36:19,153
Instead of taking out tables
to make more exclusive spaces,

832
00:36:19,187 --> 00:36:21,856
I love taking out tables to make
more places that kids can run

833
00:36:21,890 --> 00:36:23,157
around.

834
00:36:23,191 --> 00:36:23,992
[Scott] Mm!
You know what I mean?

835
00:36:28,563 --> 00:36:29,698
Welcome to the arcade, buckaroo!

836
00:36:29,731 --> 00:36:30,899
There's no cussin' in here!

837
00:36:30,932 --> 00:36:33,602
[laughter]

838
00:36:34,403 --> 00:36:35,570
Tarnation!

839
00:36:35,604 --> 00:36:37,706
Looks like you won a prize!

840
00:36:37,739 --> 00:36:41,876
What I wanted to do in here --
at one end or the other or both

841
00:36:41,910 --> 00:36:43,345
-- was a shooting gallery.

842
00:36:43,378 --> 00:36:44,212
Mm!

843
00:36:44,245 --> 00:36:45,880
I know that'll be pricey, but...

844
00:36:45,914 --> 00:36:47,749
I'll pay for the
shooting gallery, I guess.

845
00:36:47,782 --> 00:36:49,751
I guess I'm paying for
everything, never mind.

846
00:36:49,784 --> 00:36:52,721
[laughs]

847
00:36:55,590 --> 00:36:58,159
[female reporter VO] As we wait
to see the iconic restaurant

848
00:36:58,192 --> 00:37:02,697
reopen, documents and
photos reveal some substantial

849
00:37:02,731 --> 00:37:03,698
renovation plans.

850
00:37:03,732 --> 00:37:05,400
And, man, are they costly.

851
00:37:05,434 --> 00:37:08,603
*Here's to bein' free

852
00:37:09,571 --> 00:37:13,775

*Here's to flying high,

855
00:37:20,982 --> 00:37:23,552
*Zorro's back...
48 inches tall.

856
00:37:23,785 --> 00:37:26,721
I'm gonna put this in terms of
South Park 'cause we do this all

857
00:37:26,755 --> 00:37:29,358
the time; that's
almost too pretty.

858
00:37:29,391 --> 00:37:30,925
If they immediately walk in
and everything's completely

859
00:37:30,959 --> 00:37:32,761
different, they're
like, "You liars..."

860
00:37:32,794 --> 00:37:33,628
[laughter]
"You changed everything."

861
00:37:33,662 --> 00:37:34,262
Everything.

862
00:37:34,295 --> 00:37:35,430
"Everything's different."

863
00:37:35,464 --> 00:37:37,366
And the food is good
now, you stupid bitches!

864
00:37:37,399 --> 00:37:39,167

00:37:39,901 --> 00:37:43,738

868
00:37:50,979 --> 00:37:52,447
Talking about
fancying up tables,

869
00:37:52,481 --> 00:37:54,148
or we could just go
back to old school.

870
00:37:54,182 --> 00:37:55,817
I think that's
kind of a cool idea;

871
00:37:55,850 --> 00:37:59,053
the other one looks like a
old, kitschy restaurant,

872
00:37:59,087 --> 00:38:01,423
you know, but I think we
should-- I like that idea.

873
00:38:01,456 --> 00:38:06,461
***

874
00:38:09,998 --> 00:38:11,232
[man] Our old
building, everyone,

875
00:38:11,265 --> 00:38:13,468
had about three- or
four-thousand-foot of this

876
00:38:13,502 --> 00:38:14,869
flex pipe.

877
00:38:23,111 --> 00:38:24,679
[laughter]

878
00:38:32,053 --> 00:38:34,022
[Trey VO] Funny; you know, the
fountain hadn't worked in years,

879
00:38:34,055 --> 00:38:35,089
and...

880
00:38:35,123 --> 00:38:36,625
we brought out the
best people to go,

881
00:38:36,658 --> 00:38:38,660
"How can you fix this fountain?"
And they're like, "You can't."

882
00:38:38,693 --> 00:38:40,194
So we dig up the
fountain and, of course,

883
00:38:40,228 --> 00:38:41,463
helicopters caught
it and they're like,

884
00:38:41,496 --> 00:38:42,997
[gasps] "They're
taking away the fountain!

885
00:38:43,031 --> 00:38:44,466
They're taking
away the fountain!"

886
00:38:44,499 --> 00:38:46,200
[male reporter VO] Out at
Casa Bonita in Lakewood,

887
00:38:46,234 --> 00:38:48,036
something is missing, though.

888
00:38:48,069 --> 00:38:50,472
Copter 4 was over
the restaurant today,

889
00:38:50,505 --> 00:38:53,442
and right now,
there is no fountain!

890
00:38:53,475 --> 00:38:56,044
Ripping that down, it literally
upset quite a few people.

891
00:38:56,077 --> 00:38:59,881
We had the news out here, we had
people coming from all over the

892
00:38:59,914 --> 00:39:01,650
place to just kinda...

893
00:39:01,683 --> 00:39:03,818
give us the Riot Act
for what we were doing.

894
00:39:03,852 --> 00:39:06,020
We're gonna have a fountain
outside in front of Casa Bonita,

895
00:39:06,054 --> 00:39:07,456
but it's just like...

896
00:39:07,489 --> 00:39:10,692
the only way we could do that
was to completely start over.

897
00:39:10,725 --> 00:39:12,326
It's just gonna be a
little bit of a microscope,

898
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:13,828
you know, in
Denver, which is, like,

899
00:39:13,862 --> 00:39:16,330
that's a great problem
to have in some ways,

900
00:39:16,364 --> 00:39:18,667
but it's just
still, like, you know...

901
00:39:18,700 --> 00:39:20,234
I've never done anything
like this before so I'm--

902
00:39:20,268 --> 00:39:21,836
I'm anxious.

903
00:39:21,870 --> 00:39:25,740
[cheering]

904
00:39:30,745 --> 00:39:32,280
[Gov. Polis] By a...

905
00:39:32,781 --> 00:39:37,786
official proclamation on behalf
of the state of Colorado...

906
00:39:38,286 --> 00:39:42,256
[cheering]

907
00:39:42,290 --> 00:39:45,527
"Whereas in 2021, the creators

908
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:50,098
iconic Casa Bonita, a
fine dining restaurant and

909

entertainment mecca, money pit,

[cheering]

912
00:39:58,973 --> 00:40:02,176
True story: we went from ninth
lowest unemployment rate to

913
00:40:02,210 --> 00:40:05,947
fourth because of all the
contractors and subcontractors

914
00:40:05,980 --> 00:40:07,582
working at Casa Bonita.

915
00:40:07,616 --> 00:40:10,552
[cheering]

916
00:40:10,585 --> 00:40:15,590
*tense curious music

917
00:40:18,426 --> 00:40:20,795
That's gonna
be the volcano!

918
00:40:21,563 --> 00:40:24,232
I don't know what it's
gonna look like but...

919
00:40:46,020 --> 00:40:50,959
[man] Are you planning to do
the same menu as the old Casa?

920
00:40:50,992 --> 00:40:53,928
It's a mix of both; I'm gonna
keep a couple of the plates that

921
00:40:53,962 --> 00:40:56,130
they used to have, but I'm gonna
do it in-house, you know?

922
00:40:56,164 --> 00:40:58,399
Like, Casa Bonita's a
Mexican restaurant,

923
00:40:58,432 --> 00:41:01,936
and before, it wasn't
speaking that with the food,

924
00:41:01,970 --> 00:41:05,139
so I'm trying to
express that to everybody.

925
00:41:05,173 --> 00:41:08,810
But, you know, I never
managed anything like this.

926
00:41:10,211 --> 00:41:12,814
My fear is like what if...

927
00:41:12,847 --> 00:41:14,683
it doesn't work?

928
00:41:18,653 --> 00:41:21,422
[Trey VO] I-- I think that...

929
00:41:21,455 --> 00:41:24,959
where I wanna start
is just reviewing,

930
00:41:24,993 --> 00:41:26,995
again, the characters.

931
00:41:27,028 --> 00:41:29,463
So, I think...

932
00:41:29,497 --> 00:41:31,966
at least just to open, we
basically have four characters

933
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,001
and a gorilla.

934
00:41:33,034 --> 00:41:34,202
[laughter]
Right?

935
00:41:34,235 --> 00:41:37,038
So, um, if we
look at Black Bart,

936
00:41:37,071 --> 00:41:39,273
there is a
historical Black Bart.

937
00:41:39,307 --> 00:41:40,975
The bowler hat
was sort of his thing.

938
00:41:41,009 --> 00:41:42,043
[woman VO] Oh, interesting.

939
00:41:42,076 --> 00:41:43,978
[Trey VO] We got
their sort of Bible...

940
00:41:44,012 --> 00:41:46,848
that was "Here's the
characters of Casa Bonita,"

941
00:41:46,881 --> 00:41:48,683
you know, which was like
20-something characters,

942
00:41:48,717 --> 00:41:49,818
[chuckling] I think.

943
00:41:49,851 --> 00:41:51,285
But they weren't
well thought-out,

944
00:41:51,319 --> 00:41:53,287
and they were just like "Oh,
they're silly 'cause they're

945
00:41:53,321 --> 00:41:54,555
dumb."

946
00:41:54,589 --> 00:41:56,190
And I'll go track down
that no-good son-of-a-gun

947
00:41:56,224 --> 00:41:58,827
sopapilla-stealin' Black Bart!

948
00:41:58,860 --> 00:42:00,829
And you can have a good look...

949
00:42:00,862 --> 00:42:03,064
at the wonders of Casa Bonita.

950
00:42:03,097 --> 00:42:04,398
Hi, Sheriff!
Bart!

951
00:42:04,432 --> 00:42:05,900
Now, just get back here!

952
00:42:05,934 --> 00:42:07,669
I just didn't want that
thing of like "Oh God,

953
00:42:07,702 --> 00:42:08,870
here they go..."

954
00:42:08,903 --> 00:42:10,404
If you're a kid and
you're in the arcade,

955
00:42:10,438 --> 00:42:11,706
you might look next to you and
Black Bart's playing a game,

956
00:42:11,740 --> 00:42:13,074
and you're like,
[gasps] "There he is!"

957
00:42:13,107 --> 00:42:14,643
And you know you're
supposed to go tell the Sheriff.

958
00:42:14,676 --> 00:42:16,711
But by then, Black Bart's
serving drinks down in the bar.

959
00:42:16,745 --> 00:42:18,680
[laughter]

960
00:42:18,713 --> 00:42:20,481
Those are the kind of
things we're thinking about.

961
00:42:20,514 --> 00:42:21,716
We don't have them
fleshed out yet,

962
00:42:21,750 --> 00:42:24,052
but it's that kind of thinking.

963
00:42:29,958 --> 00:42:33,261
So we have an audio
animatronic one going in,

964
00:42:33,294 --> 00:42:36,264
and it gives
fortunes -- bad fortunes.

965
00:42:36,297 --> 00:42:38,266
[man] Since no one
was in this space,

966
00:42:38,299 --> 00:42:40,434
this stuff's,
like, way too much.

967
00:42:40,468 --> 00:42:43,037
[Trey VO] You know, Matt and I
have always had the most fun

968
00:42:43,071 --> 00:42:45,874
figuring out things
on a technical level.

969
00:42:45,907 --> 00:42:47,876
Part of what we get off on is
getting in there and going,

970
00:42:47,909 --> 00:42:49,343
"Yeah, but what
if you did this?"

971
00:42:49,377 --> 00:42:51,713
The good thing with Casa
Bonita: there is a lot there.

972
00:42:51,746 --> 00:42:53,281
It's not like you're
starting from zero.

973
00:42:53,314 --> 00:42:55,884
And I was super surprised when
I saw for the first time --

974
00:42:55,917 --> 00:42:57,919
like, the whole
craftsmanship is amazing.

975
00:42:57,952 --> 00:43:00,922
So we try to incorporate some of
the stuff that is already there,

976
00:43:00,955 --> 00:43:02,957
bring it to what is new.

977
00:43:02,991 --> 00:43:05,559
[Trey] I mean, I
wanna keep it this.

978
00:43:06,127 --> 00:43:08,262
They just had a big
treasure box in there,

979
00:43:08,296 --> 00:43:10,732
and you got to go up and
take your piece of candy,

980
00:43:10,765 --> 00:43:13,534
which little kids
went fuckin' nuts for.

981
00:43:13,567 --> 00:43:16,137
It's not too
different, whatever we do.

982
00:43:16,170 --> 00:43:19,140
We're making
stumps of the trees,

983
00:43:19,173 --> 00:43:22,143
and there's air pressure in
there so that it's like you're

984
00:43:22,176 --> 00:43:25,113
getting bit by the snake, so
kids can mess around with this

985
00:43:25,146 --> 00:43:26,314
thing.

986
00:43:26,948 --> 00:43:28,082
I mean, it's supposed
to be Black Bart's cave,

987
00:43:28,116 --> 00:43:30,151
and then there's
nothing Black Bart about it.

988
00:43:30,184 --> 00:43:31,319
It's just a little
[laughing] haunted house,

989
00:43:31,352 --> 00:43:32,887
you know what I mean?
Right.

990
00:43:32,921 --> 00:43:34,555
But it should be like, "Oh,
there's Black-- that's all his

991
00:43:34,588 --> 00:43:36,557
treasure back there, and
there's where he kept this,

992
00:43:36,590 --> 00:43:38,392
and there's where he kept that!"
You know.

993
00:43:38,426 --> 00:43:41,129
I'm just thinking something
better than just heads.

994
00:43:41,162 --> 00:43:42,396
Yeah, this
becomes a new diorama.

995
00:43:42,430 --> 00:43:44,132
This is where we spend our...

996
00:43:44,165 --> 00:43:45,133
our 200 bucks.

997
00:43:45,166 --> 00:43:47,601
[laughter]

998
00:43:53,607 --> 00:43:56,610
A pin light is basically
highlighting on the map

999
00:43:56,644 --> 00:43:58,579
"Here's where they were,
here's where they were,

1000
00:43:58,612 --> 00:43:59,814
here's where they were."

1001
00:44:09,357 --> 00:44:10,191
[Randy VO] It's amazing.

1002
00:44:10,224 --> 00:44:12,326
It's fun to watch him, for sure.

1003
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:13,962
[laughs]

1004
00:44:18,066 --> 00:44:19,200
Oh, yeah!

1005
00:44:19,233 --> 00:44:24,172
He aways would say things
about "I would change this,

1006
00:44:24,205 --> 00:44:28,342
I wouldn't do this this
way," [chuckling] or something.

1007
00:44:28,376 --> 00:44:30,011
[man] Did you ever
see it when it was, like,

1008
00:44:30,044 --> 00:44:31,212
in its glory days?

1009
00:44:31,245 --> 00:44:33,181
You know, I probably...

1010
00:44:33,214 --> 00:44:35,183
It must have been...

1011
00:44:35,216 --> 00:44:37,185
I think I was in third grade,

1012
00:44:37,218 --> 00:44:39,821
so it was '78 the
first time I came,

1013
00:44:39,854 --> 00:44:42,991
so it was still
close to its glory.

1014
00:44:43,024 --> 00:44:48,029
*tender music

1015
00:44:50,264 --> 00:44:53,467
[man] Why do you think Casa
Bonita is so important to Trey?

1016
00:44:53,501 --> 00:44:56,370
[laughs]

1017
00:44:56,404 --> 00:44:59,240
I don't know, Trey's just--
he's that guy more than I am.

1018
00:44:59,273 --> 00:45:01,209
He just, um...

1019
00:45:01,242 --> 00:45:02,476
Of anybody who
has those kind of, like,

1020
00:45:02,510 --> 00:45:04,045
gauzy
memories of something,

1021
00:45:04,078 --> 00:45:06,247
Trey's probably that, who
probably remembers the best

1022
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:07,849
possible version of it.

1023
00:45:07,882 --> 00:45:08,716
Do you know what I mean?

1024
00:45:08,749 --> 00:45:11,085
And he's a romantic, and so...

1025
00:45:11,119 --> 00:45:13,387
that kid in him is
very much alive.

1026
00:45:13,421 --> 00:45:17,225
***

1027
00:45:17,258 --> 00:45:20,028
[Trey VO] The main thing I still
try to do every time that I go

1028
00:45:20,061 --> 00:45:22,230
is I go, "Okay, I'm
seven years old,"

1029
00:45:22,263 --> 00:45:24,598
and I just walk around.

1030
00:45:24,632 --> 00:45:28,269
***

1031
00:45:28,302 --> 00:45:31,039
I'm trying to create the Casa
Bonita that it was when I was a

1032
00:45:31,072 --> 00:45:32,540
kid.

1033
00:45:33,541 --> 00:45:35,243
The nice thing
about Casa was that,

1034
00:45:35,276 --> 00:45:38,212
since it's an enclosed place,
your parents could just sit at

1035
00:45:38,246 --> 00:45:41,682
the table and you could just
go roam around by yourself,

1036
00:45:41,715 --> 00:45:44,452
which, to a six-,
seven-year-old, was a lot.

1037
00:45:44,485 --> 00:45:46,287
It felt big.

1038
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,457
***

1039
00:45:49,490 --> 00:45:51,025
You know, and as a
six- or seven-year-old,

1040
00:45:51,059 --> 00:45:53,094
you're walking and you're
like, "I'm in this little town,

1041
00:45:53,127 --> 00:45:54,462
and I'm gonna
explore this little town."

1042
00:45:54,495 --> 00:45:56,564
It was all about
the nooks and cranies.

1043
00:45:57,465 --> 00:45:59,133
That's the magic.

1044
00:46:04,172 --> 00:46:06,307
Except now, I walk
around and I'm like...

1045
00:46:07,175 --> 00:46:08,877
"That's the wrong color blue."

1046
00:46:08,910 --> 00:46:10,111
[laughs]

1047
00:46:10,144 --> 00:46:11,913
You know, and I go,
like, "Wait, that sucks,

1048
00:46:11,946 --> 00:46:14,082
I don't--" you know,
"Why is that there?"

1049
00:46:14,115 --> 00:46:16,885
We just need, on each side, for
it to-- instead of being like

1050
00:46:16,918 --> 00:46:19,888
this, it needs to be like that.

1051
00:46:19,921 --> 00:46:22,723
I do like that it's giving us
the greenery up there and feels

1052
00:46:22,756 --> 00:46:26,094
like a big, nice tree,
which is why I like it here,

1053
00:46:26,127 --> 00:46:28,897
because it still does that
thing and gives you a canopy.

1054
00:46:28,930 --> 00:46:30,298
[Scott] Let me get a price...
[Trey] Okay.

1055
00:46:30,331 --> 00:46:31,732
[Scott] Just so we
understand what that means,

1056
00:46:31,765 --> 00:46:33,134
if we...

1057
00:46:33,167 --> 00:46:34,335
cut that tree down and plant
a new one over here, right?

1058
00:46:34,368 --> 00:46:35,469
[chuckles]
[mimics chainsaw]

1059
00:46:35,503 --> 00:46:37,205
[Scott, laughing]
Yeah, right, right.

1060
00:46:40,141 --> 00:46:41,775
[laughter]

1061
00:46:41,809 --> 00:46:43,511
[man VO] Are you really
gonna write the puppet show?

1062
00:46:43,544 --> 00:46:45,313
[Trey VO] Yeah, I mean, I was
looking at the puppet shows they

1063
00:46:45,346 --> 00:46:48,482
were doing before we bought
it, and it's literally just,

1064
00:46:48,516 --> 00:46:49,918
you know,
basically a sock puppet,

1065
00:46:49,951 --> 00:46:52,286
and you can't even
understand what's going on.

1066
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,189
You know, I wanna have
it where there's still a live

1067
00:46:55,223 --> 00:46:57,125
person doing it and there's
still a live person talking and

1068
00:46:57,158 --> 00:47:00,929
doing voices, but it's all kinda
done to a soundtrack and...

1069
00:47:00,962 --> 00:47:03,797
backgrounds and things like
that so that it stays on...

1070
00:47:03,831 --> 00:47:05,566
[man] Yeah.
Like a Broadway show.

1071
00:47:06,234 --> 00:47:07,701
[woman] Oh!

1072
00:47:07,735 --> 00:47:09,203
Mi nombre es...

1073
00:47:09,237 --> 00:47:10,371
Diabolo!

1074
00:47:10,404 --> 00:47:12,373
[laughter]

1075
00:47:12,740 --> 00:47:14,508
Hello!
[laughter]

1076
00:47:14,542 --> 00:47:16,610
Welcome to Casa Bonita!

1077
00:47:16,644 --> 00:47:18,947
Does anyone have a
birthday out there today?

1078
00:47:18,980 --> 00:47:19,813
[man] Me, me, me!

1079
00:47:19,847 --> 00:47:21,715
Oh, all right!
I knew that!

1080
00:47:21,749 --> 00:47:24,352
[laughter]
Thank you, thank you!

1081
00:47:24,385 --> 00:47:26,354
*triumphant music playing

1082
00:47:26,387 --> 00:47:28,822
[laughter]

1083
00:47:28,856 --> 00:47:31,059
Welcome to Casa Bonita.

1084
00:47:31,692 --> 00:47:34,828
We hope you are
having a fun time.

1085
00:47:35,263 --> 00:47:37,731
Okay, today, we're going to
talk about domestic violence...

1086
00:47:37,765 --> 00:47:40,201
[laughter]

1087
00:47:40,234 --> 00:47:41,735
[man] Boys and girls...
Boys and girls...

1088
00:47:41,769 --> 00:47:43,571
[laughter]

1089
00:47:43,604 --> 00:47:46,407
*quirky curious music

1090
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,176
[Scott VO] Now,
we're really ramping up.

1091
00:47:48,209 --> 00:47:49,410
We are probably...

1092
00:47:49,443 --> 00:47:51,845
80 people on site
a day right now,

1093
00:47:51,879 --> 00:47:55,249
we're strengthening the roof,
getting our rooftop units in,

1094
00:47:55,283 --> 00:47:58,752
running overhead, all of
our mechanical ductwork,

1095
00:47:58,786 --> 00:48:01,389
running cable trays
for our low volt wire...

1096
00:48:01,422 --> 00:48:06,427
***

1097
00:48:13,267 --> 00:48:18,272
[tools whirring and grinding]

1098
00:48:19,607 --> 00:48:22,010
We've got our rock experts;
they're working on sort of

1099
00:48:22,043 --> 00:48:25,046
augmenting all the
different rocks around the pool.

1100
00:48:25,713 --> 00:48:28,049
All the rock over here
has been touched up.

1101
00:48:28,082 --> 00:48:31,585
[chuckles] The rock people have
a bucket of gum that they have

1102
00:48:31,619 --> 00:48:33,287
chipped off all the areas.

1103
00:48:33,321 --> 00:48:34,422
It's disgusting.

1104
00:48:34,455 --> 00:48:39,460
***

1105
00:48:47,835 --> 00:48:50,438
We enlarged the pool.

1106
00:48:50,471 --> 00:48:53,241
We've removed some of the stones
that sort of jutted out that we

1107
00:48:53,274 --> 00:48:55,076
felt were unsafe.

1108
00:48:56,144 --> 00:48:57,645
Because we found
the pool had leaks,

1109
00:48:57,678 --> 00:49:00,414
we're actually gonna be pouring
another pool inside of it.

1110
00:49:00,448 --> 00:49:04,118
***

1111
00:49:04,152 --> 00:49:06,620
So this is the sort of
secret way the divers come out.

1112
00:49:06,654 --> 00:49:08,889
They'll swim
through below that arch.

1113
00:49:08,922 --> 00:49:10,491
It's safer for them, there'll
be a little ladder here,

1114
00:49:10,524 --> 00:49:12,426
they've gotta come
up, shower, change,

1115
00:49:12,460 --> 00:49:13,827
and go back out.

1116
00:49:13,861 --> 00:49:16,330
Ah, it's so nice to not see that
gross ceiling that was in here.

1117
00:49:16,364 --> 00:49:17,465
I know.

1118
00:49:19,467 --> 00:49:21,269
[Matt] Look at this, wow!

1119
00:49:21,302 --> 00:49:22,503
It's so much nicer!

1120
00:49:22,536 --> 00:49:24,072
[Scott] Crazy, right?

1121
00:49:24,105 --> 00:49:25,106
[Matt] It seems like a nice
place you might wanna be now!

1122
00:49:25,139 --> 00:49:26,540
[Scott, chuckling] I know.

1123
00:49:29,377 --> 00:49:31,445
This is my favorite piece,
and when you come on this side,

1124
00:49:31,479 --> 00:49:33,481
you'll see exactly why.

1125
00:49:33,514 --> 00:49:38,286
***

1126
00:49:41,122 --> 00:49:43,724
[Matt] Wow, this is so different
than when I was here last time!

1127
00:49:44,558 --> 00:49:46,760
This looks like a really nice
restaurant all of a sudden!

1128
00:49:46,794 --> 00:49:48,896
[laughter]
Hey!

1129
00:49:49,330 --> 00:49:51,332
So, when you shoot that
target, this'll go...

1130
00:49:51,365 --> 00:49:52,866
[train whistle]

1131
00:49:52,900 --> 00:49:54,302
[laughter]

1132
00:49:54,335 --> 00:49:55,703
[gunshot]

1133
00:49:55,736 --> 00:49:58,472
You sure shoot a heck of a
lot better than you look!

1134
00:49:58,506 --> 00:49:59,473
[Scott] Wow, this
is fuckin' sweet.

1135
00:49:59,507 --> 00:50:01,542
[Trey, laughing] Yeah!
I told you!

1136
00:50:01,575 --> 00:50:03,511
[laughter]

1137
00:50:03,911 --> 00:50:05,346
I think it's good to have
them back a little bit,

1138
00:50:05,379 --> 00:50:07,115
and then we can frame 'em.
You know, it's like having

1139
00:50:07,148 --> 00:50:08,149
these...
[Scott] 'Kay.

1140
00:50:08,182 --> 00:50:09,517
[Trey] A couple more
foreground pieces.

1141
00:50:09,550 --> 00:50:10,618
[Scott] Even further?

1142
00:50:10,651 --> 00:50:11,719
[Trey] That's
great; no, that's good.

1143
00:50:12,386 --> 00:50:13,687
[Scott] Things are starting
to take shape around here;

1144
00:50:13,721 --> 00:50:15,389
it's pretty exciting.

1145
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,362
[laughs]

1146
00:50:24,565 --> 00:50:26,200
Don't go in the cave!

1147
00:50:26,234 --> 00:50:29,337
There's a giant
gorilla thing in there!

1148
00:50:29,370 --> 00:50:30,371
Gorilla thing?

1149
00:50:30,404 --> 00:50:32,373
I thought it was a dragon!

1150
00:50:34,575 --> 00:50:37,010
It was a dragon but they changed
it 'cause it didn't make any

1151
00:50:37,044 --> 00:50:38,446
sense.

1152
00:50:39,147 --> 00:50:40,548
Don't go in the caaaave!

1153
00:50:40,581 --> 00:50:43,584
Don't go in the caaaave!

1154
00:50:43,951 --> 00:50:45,219
They keep going in the cave!

1155
00:50:45,253 --> 00:50:47,555
Yeah, nobody listens.
They keep going in the cave.

1156
00:50:47,588 --> 00:50:48,789
[laughter]

1157
00:50:48,822 --> 00:50:52,360
The worst part about being a
skeleton is I can't kiss anyone

1158
00:50:52,393 --> 00:50:54,228
'cause I don't have rips.

1159
00:50:54,262 --> 00:50:55,429
You don't have what?

1160
00:50:55,463 --> 00:50:58,232
[skeleton] I don't have rips!

1161
00:50:58,266 --> 00:50:59,567
What are "rips?"

1162
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,602
No, not "rips," rips!

1163
00:51:01,635 --> 00:51:03,937
I can't understand you
'cause you don't have rips!

1164
00:51:03,971 --> 00:51:05,639
What are "rips?"

1165
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:07,541
This is more fun than
South Park right now.

1166
00:51:07,575 --> 00:51:08,742
Yeah, this is way more fun.

1167
00:51:08,776 --> 00:51:10,611
[laughs]
It's like, I don't know...

1168
00:51:10,644 --> 00:51:11,779
It's so cool every
time we come here;

1169
00:51:11,812 --> 00:51:13,581
it's, like, just coming alive.

1170
00:51:14,215 --> 00:51:15,849
[Dana] Hey, Matt, last
time we talk a little bit,

1171
00:51:15,883 --> 00:51:18,186
like, we're thinking, like, "Oh,
that would be fucking cool if we

1172
00:51:18,219 --> 00:51:19,753
open on Cinco de Mayo."

1173
00:51:19,787 --> 00:51:22,623
[man] What could stop
us from opening by May?

1174
00:51:22,656 --> 00:51:26,194
Literally it's insane the amount
of things that we have to get

1175
00:51:26,227 --> 00:51:27,861
done through --
numbers, financials,

1176
00:51:27,895 --> 00:51:30,464
phone calls, invoices, like...

1177
00:51:30,498 --> 00:51:32,400
It's crunch time.

1178
00:51:32,433 --> 00:51:33,501
It's a lot.

1179
00:51:33,534 --> 00:51:36,270
I just wanna be able to
grab my phone and say,

1180
00:51:36,304 --> 00:51:38,272
"Financial person,
fucking figure this out."

1181
00:51:38,306 --> 00:51:39,607
Yeah, yeah.

1182
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:40,774
[Dana] "Legal, someone
fell in the fucking pool."

1183
00:51:40,808 --> 00:51:41,975
[woman] Yeah.

1184
00:51:42,009 --> 00:51:42,543
I think that's
gotta be one of those, like,

1185
00:51:42,576 --> 00:51:43,477
banned-for-life things.

1186
00:51:43,511 --> 00:51:44,578
[woman] Yes, definitely.

1187
00:51:44,612 --> 00:51:46,280
Like, fell in the
pool, banned for life.

1188
00:51:46,314 --> 00:51:47,415
[woman] Yeah.

1189
00:51:47,448 --> 00:51:48,282
And that might not
be worth it to you.

1190
00:51:48,316 --> 00:51:49,983
[laughter]

1191
00:51:50,017 --> 00:51:51,585
Was it worth it?
Totally.

1192
00:51:51,619 --> 00:51:54,655
[laughter]

1193
00:51:57,858 --> 00:51:59,793
[laughter]

1194
00:51:59,827 --> 00:52:01,462
Some big news today,
from Casa Bonita...

1195
00:52:01,495 --> 00:52:04,465
We now have a reopening date for
what many call "the Disneyland

1196
00:52:04,498 --> 00:52:05,633
[chuckling] of
Mexican restaurants."

1197
00:52:05,666 --> 00:52:06,800
[male reporter VO]
The wait is over.

1198
00:52:06,834 --> 00:52:08,602
They're gonna be
opening up in May!

1199
00:52:08,636 --> 00:52:11,472
The iconic pink castle
restaurant on Colfax.

1200
00:52:11,505 --> 00:52:12,640
[male reporter VO] If
you're looking for a new job,

1201
00:52:12,673 --> 00:52:15,843
you could join the iconic
Colorado Casa Bonita team as

1202
00:52:15,876 --> 00:52:17,445
they get read to reopen.

1203
00:52:17,478 --> 00:52:18,912
Yeah, they're
holding a job fair today,

1204
00:52:18,946 --> 00:52:21,081
looking to hire
more than 500 workers.

1205
00:52:21,114 --> 00:52:23,116
[female reporter VO]
There is a line out the door.

1206
00:52:23,150 --> 00:52:26,254
Only roughly 40 employees
stayed on from old Casa.

1207
00:52:26,287 --> 00:52:27,655
We need to hire a
custodial staff,

1208
00:52:27,688 --> 00:52:29,823
facilities,
entertainment, servers,

1209
00:52:29,857 --> 00:52:32,125
kitchen staff, just a lot.

1210
00:52:32,159 --> 00:52:35,696
Today, we are having auditions
for all of our potential cast

1211
00:52:35,729 --> 00:52:36,664
and performers.

1212
00:52:36,697 --> 00:52:39,700
Bienvenidos a Casa Bonita!

1213
00:52:39,733 --> 00:52:41,835
Yeehoo!

1214
00:52:41,869 --> 00:52:44,305
Oh God, here we go!

1215
00:52:44,338 --> 00:52:45,273
Get!

1216
00:52:45,306 --> 00:52:46,106
Stay!

1217
00:52:46,139 --> 00:52:48,709
I have roamed the
Caribbean Isles!

1218
00:52:48,742 --> 00:52:50,678
Whoop!
Whoop!

1219
00:52:50,711 --> 00:52:51,512
[grunts]

1220
00:52:51,545 --> 00:52:52,680
Yah!

1221
00:52:52,713 --> 00:52:53,914
[laughter]

1222
00:52:56,350 --> 00:52:58,886
I think, in this context, being
a good diver is being a good

1223
00:52:58,919 --> 00:53:00,521
performer.

1224
00:53:01,989 --> 00:53:04,191
[laughter]

1225
00:53:05,693 --> 00:53:07,495
[Dana] We're going to
test all of you guys.

1226
00:53:07,528 --> 00:53:09,730
When you walk into the
kitchen, once in a while,

1227
00:53:09,763 --> 00:53:12,333
I'm gonna say, like,
"Tell me what's in the molé.

1228
00:53:12,366 --> 00:53:13,534
Tell me what's
in the camarones.

1229
00:53:13,567 --> 00:53:15,135
Tell me what is in this."

1230
00:53:15,168 --> 00:53:20,173
*upbeat jaunty music

1231
00:53:22,943 --> 00:53:24,211
Yeah.

1232
00:53:25,178 --> 00:53:27,315
I'll ask if he can
build permit concurrently,

1233
00:53:27,348 --> 00:53:29,550
just 'cause we're under the
gun, and if he says no for some

1234
00:53:29,583 --> 00:53:31,719
reason, then, Dan,
I'll call you back...

1235
00:53:31,752 --> 00:53:33,721
[Scott VO] The next
eight weeks are gonna be...

1236
00:53:33,754 --> 00:53:35,255
very busy.

1237
00:53:35,289 --> 00:53:36,123
Like, literally, [chuckling] I'm
probably gonna get a couple of

1238
00:53:36,156 --> 00:53:37,558
mattresses for
one of the offices,

1239
00:53:37,591 --> 00:53:40,328
'cause we're probably gonna be
here 12 to 16 hours a day just

1240
00:53:40,361 --> 00:53:41,895
trying to complete things.

1241
00:53:41,929 --> 00:53:43,364
You know, we're supposed to be
done with construction and we

1242
00:53:43,397 --> 00:53:46,099
still have, like, five major
projects that we are in the

1243
00:53:46,133 --> 00:53:47,100
middle of.

1244
00:53:47,134 --> 00:53:48,569
[Scott] Now, just
so you guys know,

1245
00:53:48,602 --> 00:53:51,204
February 13 is, like,
when this building is done.

1246
00:53:51,238 --> 00:53:54,107
Mm.

1247
00:53:54,141 --> 00:53:55,743
Yes, and...

1248
00:53:55,776 --> 00:53:59,347
[man] 'Cause the fountain is
gonna run a little beyond that.

1249
00:53:59,380 --> 00:54:04,385
*tense music

1250
00:54:10,624 --> 00:54:12,926
[Dana VO] They made
the floors too quick.

1251
00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:15,729
They wanted to show
that they can do it fast,

1252
00:54:15,763 --> 00:54:17,965
but they didn't do it right.

1253
00:54:17,998 --> 00:54:20,634
So we, as a team, like...

1254
00:54:20,668 --> 00:54:22,770
"We don't accept your floors,
you have to redo it all over

1255
00:54:22,803 --> 00:54:26,206
again," so they have to bring
these big machines kind of to

1256
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,009
grind everything down,
and then start all over.

1257
00:54:29,610 --> 00:54:34,147
I just sorta-- you know, I sorta
had this week on my calendar as

1258
00:54:34,181 --> 00:54:35,583
"This is the week
everything's showing up,

1259
00:54:35,616 --> 00:54:36,784
and it's all showing
up at the same time,

1260
00:54:36,817 --> 00:54:38,786
and that'll be crazy,
and this will be amazing,

1261
00:54:38,819 --> 00:54:39,787
shit's just gonna
be flying in here,

1262
00:54:39,820 --> 00:54:41,789
and trucks on top
of each other."

1263
00:54:41,822 --> 00:54:44,658
Did-- did we just not get all
the deliveries we thought we

1264
00:54:44,692 --> 00:54:46,159
were gonna get?

1265
00:54:46,193 --> 00:54:47,828
So there's four days' worth
of deliveries stuffed in the

1266
00:54:47,861 --> 00:54:48,762
kitchen.
There is?

1267
00:54:48,796 --> 00:54:49,797
But the kitchen floor...

1268
00:54:49,830 --> 00:54:51,632
Wasn't ready.
Is...

1269
00:54:51,665 --> 00:54:53,634
They said it was ready and we
rejected it 'cause the quality

1270
00:54:53,667 --> 00:54:55,068
wasn't there.

1271
00:54:55,102 --> 00:55:00,107
***

1272
00:55:03,210 --> 00:55:04,645
[man] Who's the
supplier getting it from?

1273
00:55:04,678 --> 00:55:05,979
[Scott] Yeah, where
is it gonna ship from?

1274
00:55:06,013 --> 00:55:07,448
When it's ready, what country?

1275
00:55:07,481 --> 00:55:09,650
What supplier?
What's their name?

1276
00:55:13,053 --> 00:55:14,688
[Scott] And I hate
to say it, but...

1277
00:55:14,722 --> 00:55:16,890
you are holding our end date up.

1278
00:55:25,833 --> 00:55:27,668
Well, then, getting the
information on where the fuckin'

1279
00:55:27,701 --> 00:55:30,671
distributor's coming from
should be pretty simple, then.

1280
00:55:30,704 --> 00:55:33,841
Shaw's got people
working 80-hour weeks in here;

1281
00:55:33,874 --> 00:55:35,643
we're burning money.

1282
00:55:35,676 --> 00:55:40,047
***

1283
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:41,849
When we filled the
pool up originally,

1284
00:55:41,882 --> 00:55:43,817
it lost 10 inches the first
day, which means there's a leak

1285
00:55:43,851 --> 00:55:45,453
somewhere.

1286
00:55:45,486 --> 00:55:46,820
They'll get in there with dye
and they'll actually swim around

1287
00:55:46,854 --> 00:55:49,723
in scuba gear, and put dye
and see if dye gets sucked into

1288
00:55:49,757 --> 00:55:52,225
certain areas so they
can patch those leaks.

1289
00:55:52,259 --> 00:55:57,264
***

1290
00:55:58,532 --> 00:56:01,334
[phone ringing]

1291
00:56:01,368 --> 00:56:02,570
[Matt over phone] Hello?

1292
00:56:02,603 --> 00:56:03,336
[Scott] I just wanted to
bring you up to speed.

1293
00:56:03,370 --> 00:56:04,838
Our pool...

1294
00:56:04,872 --> 00:56:08,676
is leaking 5,000 gallons a day.

1295
00:56:08,709 --> 00:56:09,710
So what we--
[Matt] Wow!

1296
00:56:09,743 --> 00:56:11,211
[Scott clears throat]

1297
00:56:11,244 --> 00:56:12,913
I just wanted you to sort of
hear that directly in case--

1298
00:56:12,946 --> 00:56:14,748
sometimes, you know, if the
message gets to you guys--

1299
00:56:14,782 --> 00:56:16,884
[Matt] How long is
the delay do you think?

1300
00:56:16,917 --> 00:56:19,052
Uh, well, it's gonna delay...

1301
00:56:19,086 --> 00:56:21,955
It delays sort of the
aesthetic team about a week.

1302
00:56:22,790 --> 00:56:25,158
[Matt VO] Fucking hell.
All right.

1303
00:56:25,192 --> 00:56:26,927
[Scott VO] All right.
Talk soon.

1304
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:28,696
[Matt VO] All right, bye.
[Scott VO] Bye.

1305
00:56:28,729 --> 00:56:31,732
***

1306
00:56:31,765 --> 00:56:33,901
We've just hired literally
hundreds of people --

1307
00:56:33,934 --> 00:56:35,869
kitchen staff, entertainers.

1308
00:56:35,903 --> 00:56:38,171
Some of these people quit their
old jobs so that they could

1309
00:56:38,205 --> 00:56:39,773
start with us.

1310
00:56:39,807 --> 00:56:42,576
We were supposed to have them
in the building over a week ago,

1311
00:56:42,610 --> 00:56:44,945
to start training,
rehearsing, all that stuff.

1312
00:56:44,978 --> 00:56:47,380
And until we finish this shit
up and get all our inspections

1313
00:56:47,414 --> 00:56:49,917
done, all of that is on hold.

1314
00:56:50,884 --> 00:56:52,920
All Matt hears
right now is numbers...

1315
00:56:52,953 --> 00:56:54,087
[woman] Yeah.

1316
00:56:54,121 --> 00:56:55,188
And so yesterday,
like, I talked to you,

1317
00:56:55,222 --> 00:56:56,790
it was like--
yesterday, when I was like,

1318
00:56:56,824 --> 00:56:59,292
"Oh, and by the way, we're
$2 million over budget,"

1319
00:56:59,326 --> 00:57:01,529
he says, "What the fuck?!"
Yeah.

1320
00:57:01,562 --> 00:57:02,930
"It's $32 million?"
And they go, "Yeah,"

1321
00:57:02,963 --> 00:57:04,732
and I go, "Well,
Friday, it was $30 million."

1322
00:57:04,765 --> 00:57:06,133
They go...
"Yeah, duh duh duh."

1323
00:57:06,166 --> 00:57:08,736
I was like...
[laughing] "That's $2 million!"

1324
00:57:08,769 --> 00:57:09,970
Just, like...

1325
00:57:10,003 --> 00:57:12,305
that was just, like, the
casualness that that was

1326
00:57:12,339 --> 00:57:13,774
presented to me.

1327
00:57:13,807 --> 00:57:15,142
Ugh.

1328
00:57:15,175 --> 00:57:16,143
Tensions are high.

1329
00:57:16,176 --> 00:57:17,310
They're high with everybody.

1330
00:57:17,344 --> 00:57:18,779
Do we have some places
already outlined for...

1331
00:57:18,812 --> 00:57:21,214
[Trey] Yeah, I don't know
what the delay has been.

1332
00:57:21,248 --> 00:57:25,118
But, like, I keep saying, "The
more we can get things dressed,

1333
00:57:25,152 --> 00:57:27,921
the sooner we can start reacting
to things and putting things in,

1334
00:57:27,955 --> 00:57:29,957
and, like, let's just
start throwing shit up,

1335
00:57:29,990 --> 00:57:32,860
because it will start to
help us figure it out."

1336
00:57:34,094 --> 00:57:35,929
[Scott VO] Matt and Trey are
leaving town to work on South

1337
00:57:35,963 --> 00:57:39,567
Park, so we have two weeks to
get all this shit fixed and get

1338
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,401
things back on track.

1339
00:57:41,434 --> 00:57:46,439
***

1340
00:57:55,382 --> 00:57:56,617
[Trey] Okay.

1341
00:57:57,017 --> 00:57:58,819
[clears throat]

1342
00:57:59,452 --> 00:58:01,822
Kenny, we should
open a restaurant!

1343
00:58:01,855 --> 00:58:04,592
[laughs]

1344
00:58:04,625 --> 00:58:06,359
[muffled] Why the fuck
would we open a restaurant?!

1345
00:58:06,393 --> 00:58:07,861
We could make it
awesome, with, like,

1346
00:58:07,895 --> 00:58:10,263
fun things for kids to
do, and rides, and games!

1347
00:58:10,297 --> 00:58:13,000
A places that people from all
over Colorado would wanna come

1348
00:58:13,033 --> 00:58:13,867
and see!

1349
00:58:13,901 --> 00:58:16,203
And we would be the owners.

1350
00:58:16,236 --> 00:58:18,839
And we could have all
the hot dogs we wanted.

1351
00:58:18,872 --> 00:58:20,473
[muffled] Wow!

1352
00:58:20,507 --> 00:58:22,643
Well, we built
the write around...

1353
00:58:22,676 --> 00:58:25,879
allowing them time to go to Casa
Bonita so they could make this

1354
00:58:25,913 --> 00:58:27,514
May opening.

1355
00:58:28,616 --> 00:58:30,651
[Matt] Are you guys
just playin' around?!

1356
00:58:30,684 --> 00:58:32,219
No!

1357
00:58:32,252 --> 00:58:33,654
We are renovating and opening
an amazing restaurant that will

1358
00:58:33,687 --> 00:58:35,823
be extremely profitable!

1359
00:58:36,223 --> 00:58:38,859
Then why did you
name it "DickinBaus?!"

1360
00:58:38,892 --> 00:58:41,028
Butters, you are the investor.

1361
00:58:41,061 --> 00:58:42,663
We are the creatives.

1362
00:58:42,696 --> 00:58:43,931
[laughs]

1363
00:58:43,964 --> 00:58:46,233
Well, stop being creative and
open the damn restaurant so I

1364
00:58:46,266 --> 00:58:48,035
can get my money back!

1365
00:58:48,068 --> 00:58:50,237
Just stop dickin'
around and wasting--...

1366
00:58:50,270 --> 00:58:53,306
Just stop dickin'
around and wasting my money!

1367
00:58:53,340 --> 00:58:57,010
Butters, at DikinBaus,
dicking around is all we do --

1368
00:58:57,044 --> 00:58:59,046
dicking around the competition.

1369
00:58:59,079 --> 00:59:01,448
[laughs]

1370
00:59:02,582 --> 00:59:05,218
We're definitely busy right
now, but Trey's pretty good at

1371
00:59:05,252 --> 00:59:07,054
focusing on what he
needs to do, which,

1372
00:59:07,087 --> 00:59:09,089
you know, with South Park, he's
just totally focused on this

1373
00:59:09,122 --> 00:59:10,691
right now.

1374
00:59:10,724 --> 00:59:12,225
But Casa Bonita's
about to enter, like,

1375
00:59:12,259 --> 00:59:13,827
Shitsville.

1376
00:59:13,861 --> 00:59:16,063
[Cartman] Butters, we're about
to reopen a historic landmark

1377
00:59:16,096 --> 00:59:17,430
that means something to people!

1378
00:59:17,464 --> 00:59:19,099
You think I'm just doing
all this for the fun of it?!

1379
00:59:19,132 --> 00:59:20,668
Hang on a second!

1380
00:59:20,701 --> 00:59:22,469
Weeee!

1381
00:59:23,303 --> 00:59:24,672
We're creating jobs, Butters!

1382
00:59:24,705 --> 00:59:26,073
And we're helping people!

1383
00:59:26,106 --> 00:59:28,108
Then open the
stupid place, Eric!

1384
00:59:28,141 --> 00:59:29,910
[laughter]

1385
00:59:30,944 --> 00:59:35,949
*curious music

1386
00:59:49,329 --> 00:59:50,731
Yeah, right?
It feels good.

1387
00:59:50,764 --> 00:59:51,932
I know.

1388
00:59:51,965 --> 00:59:53,266
[Scott VO] We
pulled it off somehow;

1389
00:59:53,300 --> 00:59:56,103
inspections are done,
permits are in place,

1390
00:59:56,136 --> 00:59:58,739
and now, what's important
about that is we can move in.

1391
00:59:58,772 --> 00:59:59,907
Good morning!

1392
00:59:59,940 --> 01:00:01,742
You guys are fully
signed off on phase two.

1393
01:00:01,775 --> 01:00:03,310
You may move in!

1394
01:00:03,343 --> 01:00:05,545
Now, we have food,
we can order drinks,

1395
01:00:05,578 --> 01:00:07,147
we can order whatever we want.

1396
01:00:07,180 --> 01:00:09,082
You can tell, in the kitchen,
all the equipment is already in

1397
01:00:09,116 --> 01:00:10,583
place.

1398
01:00:11,819 --> 01:00:14,922
I think we can start
with everyone just looking.

1399
01:00:14,955 --> 01:00:16,389
[Scott VO] We can finally
get some of the actors,

1400
01:00:16,423 --> 01:00:19,159
kitchen staff, divers, everyone
in here to start training and

1401
01:00:19,192 --> 01:00:21,194
get back on schedule.

1402
01:00:21,594 --> 01:00:22,763
How's it going?

1403
01:00:22,796 --> 01:00:24,131
Good, how are you?

1404
01:00:24,164 --> 01:00:25,933
I just wanna talk
about tone, first of all,

1405
01:00:25,966 --> 01:00:28,969
'cause that's really the most...

1406
01:00:29,002 --> 01:00:30,771
Definitely, in comedy, to me,
there's nothing more important

1407
01:00:30,804 --> 01:00:31,805
than tone.

1408
01:00:31,839 --> 01:00:34,942
We don't need to
try and be funny,

1409
01:00:34,975 --> 01:00:36,944
because we'll figure
out stuff that's funny.

1410
01:00:36,977 --> 01:00:39,012
And then, um,
there's just, like,

1411
01:00:39,046 --> 01:00:40,981
nothing worse for most people
than being around someone trying

1412
01:00:41,014 --> 01:00:43,016
to be funny, and it's
just like, you know,

1413
01:00:43,050 --> 01:00:45,185
if you've seen the videos of
the old character shows that

1414
01:00:45,218 --> 01:00:46,586
happened up there...

1415
01:00:46,619 --> 01:00:48,188
[high-pitched voice]
Well, no, Sheriff, I haven't!

1416
01:00:48,221 --> 01:00:50,357
It was just like, "God,
will you shut up, please?

1417
01:00:50,390 --> 01:00:52,425
I'm trying to eat
horrible food."

1418
01:00:52,459 --> 01:00:53,961
[laughter]

1419
01:00:53,994 --> 01:00:55,195
Your character
takes it seriously;

1420
01:00:55,228 --> 01:00:57,530
it's not a joke, but--

1421
01:00:57,564 --> 01:00:59,532
even though you will
be doing funny things.

1422
01:00:59,566 --> 01:01:00,367
[laughs]

1423
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,002
But to you, it's not funny.

1424
01:01:02,035 --> 01:01:06,173
Kids will react so much more
to a moment where Amazon Ani's

1425
01:01:06,206 --> 01:01:07,841
really sad

1426
01:01:07,875 --> 01:01:10,043
than they will her being silly.

1427
01:01:10,077 --> 01:01:11,011
[chuckling] You
know what I mean?

1428
01:01:11,044 --> 01:01:12,212
And so you'll
walk up to a family,

1429
01:01:12,245 --> 01:01:13,613
and you'll be like,
"Hey, I'm Amazon Ani!

1430
01:01:13,646 --> 01:01:15,548
I'm just really into
things, knowledge.

1431
01:01:15,582 --> 01:01:16,683
Do you mind if I take
your picture?" Right?

1432
01:01:16,716 --> 01:01:18,051
And you'll Polaroid and
be like, "You know what?

1433
01:01:18,085 --> 01:01:19,619
You should keep this, this is
great," whatever, right?

1434
01:01:19,652 --> 01:01:20,988
And then you look at
the girl and you go,

1435
01:01:21,021 --> 01:01:22,022
[low voice] "I
need to talk to you."

1436
01:01:22,055 --> 01:01:24,825
[laughter]

1437
01:01:29,662 --> 01:01:33,366
[singing softly] *By the light
(By the light of the moon)*

1438
01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:37,204
*Of the silvery moon...

1439
01:01:37,237 --> 01:01:40,473
There's a new idea that Beef
Plate might try to do some

1440
01:01:40,507 --> 01:01:41,809
acrobatics, so it's like...

1441
01:01:41,842 --> 01:01:44,644
*exciting humming

1442
01:01:44,677 --> 01:01:45,645
You know, that kind of thing.

1443
01:01:45,678 --> 01:01:46,679
[man] Yup.

1444
01:01:46,713 --> 01:01:49,082
Yeah, we can lose the shoes.
Yeah, okay.

1445
01:01:51,051 --> 01:01:52,685
[Trey] Yeah, yeah.

1446
01:01:52,719 --> 01:01:54,187
"What's up with
these soft tacos?"

1447
01:01:54,221 --> 01:01:55,355
What's up with these soft tacos?

1448
01:01:55,388 --> 01:01:56,890
[Trey] Oh, right,
can't joke about them!

1449
01:01:56,924 --> 01:01:57,891
[laughter]

1450
01:01:57,925 --> 01:01:59,026
I had a friend who
was a soft taco,

1451
01:01:59,059 --> 01:02:00,260
and then, all of a
sudden, was a hard taco!

1452
01:02:00,293 --> 01:02:01,829
Yeah, what happened to you?!

1453
01:02:01,862 --> 01:02:03,063
[Trey] I'm gonna
get cancelled...

1454
01:02:03,096 --> 01:02:04,431
[laughter]

1455
01:02:04,464 --> 01:02:06,199
[Ben] Now I have to
call it a "tostada!"

1456
01:02:06,233 --> 01:02:07,267
[laughter]

1457
01:02:07,300 --> 01:02:08,836
How am I supposed
to remember that?!

1458
01:02:08,869 --> 01:02:10,437
[laughter]

1459
01:02:10,470 --> 01:02:11,438
[Trey] Anyway,
how are you doin', kids?

1460
01:02:11,471 --> 01:02:14,274
Hi, how's it goin'?
[laughter]

1461
01:02:14,307 --> 01:02:16,109
[Trey] Anyone's
parents divorced?

1462
01:02:16,143 --> 01:02:17,911
[laughter]

1463
01:02:17,945 --> 01:02:19,612
Who's having their
one day with Dad today?

1464
01:02:19,646 --> 01:02:23,116
[laughter]

1465
01:02:24,517 --> 01:02:26,920
[Trey VO] To me, it is just
like doing Broadway or doing

1466
01:02:26,954 --> 01:02:28,455
the show.

1467
01:02:28,488 --> 01:02:30,090
You're doing what you always
do, which is trying to think,

1468
01:02:30,123 --> 01:02:31,724
"All right, what do people want?

1469
01:02:31,758 --> 01:02:33,894
And what are they
gonna think is awesome?

1470
01:02:33,927 --> 01:02:35,428
What are they
gonna think is funny?

1471
01:02:35,462 --> 01:02:37,097
And let's try to deliver."

1472
01:02:37,130 --> 01:02:39,066
And just, you know...

1473
01:02:39,099 --> 01:02:41,734
I know it's Casa Bonita, but
it's our regular thing of, like,

1474
01:02:41,768 --> 01:02:44,171
"No, this
isn't gonna suck!"

1475
01:02:50,177 --> 01:02:51,411
Could we see that timing?

1476
01:02:51,444 --> 01:02:53,080
Someone comes out, they
praise, they jump in,

1477
01:02:53,113 --> 01:02:56,316
they cli-- as they're climbing,
another person dives...

1478
01:02:56,349 --> 01:02:58,351
[Amber] Mm-hm.
No...

1479
01:03:02,923 --> 01:03:05,458
[Trey VO] I'm watching the
dive stuff and I start to go,

1480
01:03:05,492 --> 01:03:07,127
"Oh no, nothing's the
way I want it to be,

1481
01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:09,329
nothing's the way
I want it to be."

1482
01:03:09,362 --> 01:03:10,497
Even though I
look at that and go,

1483
01:03:10,530 --> 01:03:13,266
"That's more impressive
'cause that's higher,"

1484
01:03:13,300 --> 01:03:15,668
we make that look
more impressive, yeah.

1485
01:03:15,702 --> 01:03:17,237
[Amber] Yeah.

1486
01:03:17,270 --> 01:03:18,939
You're gonna do the same thing,
but instead of the first one

1487
01:03:18,972 --> 01:03:22,309
being a rapidfire, we're
gonna have one person come out,

1488
01:03:22,342 --> 01:03:24,344
dive, and then we'll
sync her at the end,

1489
01:03:24,377 --> 01:03:26,346
just to see some timing on that.

1490
01:03:26,379 --> 01:03:31,318
*curious music

1491
01:03:31,351 --> 01:03:33,153
[Trey VO] It's been a long
Thursday and Friday at

1492
01:03:33,186 --> 01:03:36,323
South Park, when it's just,
like, spitballing and "Oh,

1493
01:03:36,356 --> 01:03:37,524
we could do this,
we could do that!"

1494
01:03:37,557 --> 01:03:38,959
We're all laughing
and whatever, you know,

1495
01:03:38,992 --> 01:03:40,994
and then, it gets to Sunday,
Monday on South Park and I wanna

1496
01:03:41,028 --> 01:03:42,595
kill myself.

1497
01:03:42,629 --> 01:03:45,165
It's sort of Sunday morning now.
[laughs]

1498
01:03:45,198 --> 01:03:47,700
***

1499
01:03:47,734 --> 01:03:49,502
[man] Oh, hahaha!
[woman screams]

1500
01:03:49,536 --> 01:03:50,703
[indistinct shouting]

1501
01:03:50,737 --> 01:03:52,705
[woman makes gorilla sounds]

1502
01:03:52,739 --> 01:03:53,540
[Amber VO, laughing] We just...

1503
01:03:53,573 --> 01:03:56,543
We're barreling toward opening.

1504
01:03:56,576 --> 01:03:58,811
I think that was the gorilla.

1505
01:03:58,845 --> 01:04:02,215
[Amber VO] We're creating
a whole immersive world,

1506
01:04:02,249 --> 01:04:04,784
and these people have to know
their characters inside and out,

1507
01:04:04,817 --> 01:04:07,988
and they have to be able to
respond to whatever audience may

1508
01:04:08,021 --> 01:04:09,722
throw at that, and...

1509
01:04:09,756 --> 01:04:11,724
be able to know where
they are in the building,

1510
01:04:11,758 --> 01:04:14,194
which takes about a week anyway.

1511
01:04:14,227 --> 01:04:16,329
Time is very tight.

1512
01:04:16,363 --> 01:04:18,398
We're asking a lot from them.

1513
01:04:19,399 --> 01:04:21,201
[Trey] The coin
machine is in here?

1514
01:04:35,415 --> 01:04:38,051
[laughter]

1515
01:04:38,085 --> 01:04:40,853
Now, remember: it's 1973!

1516
01:04:40,887 --> 01:04:43,456
We ain't got fancy
things and such!

1517
01:04:45,892 --> 01:04:47,260
[laughing] Yeah.

1518
01:04:49,396 --> 01:04:52,465
[laughter]

1519
01:04:55,302 --> 01:04:57,604
[laughter]

1520
01:05:02,275 --> 01:05:04,277
[laughs] With the overalls.

1521
01:05:04,311 --> 01:05:06,713
It's like a total just mishmash.

1522
01:05:07,447 --> 01:05:08,515
Yeah, dude, fuck it!

1523
01:05:08,548 --> 01:05:10,617
Let's put some fuckin'
1973 stuff in there.

1524
01:05:10,650 --> 01:05:12,219
It's fuckin' rad!

1525
01:05:12,252 --> 01:05:14,387
[laughter]

1526
01:05:14,421 --> 01:05:16,456
You know, I always pivot
'til the last minute, right?

1527
01:05:16,489 --> 01:05:18,291
'Til I find the thing exactly.
Sure.

1528
01:05:18,325 --> 01:05:19,459
And...

1529
01:05:19,492 --> 01:05:21,028
I've come to find out...

1530
01:05:21,061 --> 01:05:24,064
It really happened when I did
the fucking stupid prospector in

1531
01:05:24,097 --> 01:05:25,132
the mines.

1532
01:05:25,165 --> 01:05:27,700
I'm like, "This is
what Casa Bonita is."

1533
01:05:27,734 --> 01:05:31,471
It's a place in 1973 trying to
be a place in the late 1800s,

1534
01:05:31,504 --> 01:05:32,572
[chuckling] you
know what I mean?

1535
01:05:32,605 --> 01:05:36,243
So we need '70s
flourishes everywhere!

1536
01:05:36,276 --> 01:05:39,912
I would love to get at least our
A cast in here to start hearing

1537
01:05:39,946 --> 01:05:42,482
what you have to say about that
so that they can start training

1538
01:05:42,515 --> 01:05:45,118
everyone on how they need
to portray these characters,

1539
01:05:45,152 --> 01:05:47,754
'cause we're kind of getting
to a crunch time with them.

1540
01:05:48,488 --> 01:05:50,057
We just got a little
bit of a switch up,

1541
01:05:50,090 --> 01:05:53,726
so the time period is
now 100 years later.

1542
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:57,930
It makes it a little bit harder
from what our original direction

1543
01:05:57,964 --> 01:05:59,499
was.

1544
01:05:59,532 --> 01:06:01,934
We're still trying to figure out
what the '70s angle is for Bart

1545
01:06:01,968 --> 01:06:03,903
and for Captain Isabella.

1546
01:06:03,936 --> 01:06:05,905
But we'll figure it out.

1547
01:06:05,938 --> 01:06:09,442
People in the entertainment side
of it are getting frustrated.

1548
01:06:09,476 --> 01:06:11,511
"They're saying that you kind
of change your mind a lot."

1549
01:06:11,544 --> 01:06:13,513
And I'm like, "Well, tell
'em to get used to it!" [laughs]

1550
01:06:13,546 --> 01:06:14,647
It's a fun challenge.

1551
01:06:14,681 --> 01:06:18,851
I-- I do wish we had a
little more time to pivot but...

1552
01:06:18,885 --> 01:06:20,787
we're gonna make it work.

1553
01:06:22,021 --> 01:06:24,657
It's gonna be-- yeah,
it's gonna be a brutal May.

1554
01:06:24,691 --> 01:06:29,696
*tense curious music

1555
01:06:35,135 --> 01:06:36,403
[female reporter VO]
Now that it is May,

1556
01:06:36,436 --> 01:06:38,138
we are counting down the
days until the ever-famous

1557
01:06:38,171 --> 01:06:39,772
Casa Bonita reopens.

1558
01:06:39,806 --> 01:06:41,674
We still don't have a
concrete opening date yet,

1559
01:06:41,708 --> 01:06:43,510
but we will let you
know when we know,

1560
01:06:43,543 --> 01:06:46,213
'cause I know
everybody's excited about it.

1561
01:06:46,246 --> 01:06:47,347
[woman VO]
The buzz right now,

1562
01:06:47,380 --> 01:06:49,349
everyone's talking
about it reopening.

1563
01:06:49,382 --> 01:06:51,484
Even people who've moved
away from Colorado are talking

1564
01:06:51,518 --> 01:06:52,785
about it.

1565
01:06:52,819 --> 01:06:54,053
When is it opening back up?
Do you guys know?

1566
01:06:54,087 --> 01:06:55,722
[male reporter VO] If Casa
Bonita stays true to their May

1567
01:06:55,755 --> 01:06:59,326
opening, then we should see
something happening pretty soon.

1568
01:07:01,428 --> 01:07:02,962
[girl VO] On
the news, they said

1569
01:07:02,995 --> 01:07:06,899
that Casa Bonita's
gonna open in May.

1570
01:07:06,933 --> 01:07:08,201
Is it opening any time soon?

1571
01:07:08,235 --> 01:07:09,569
[man] Soon, soon,
that's all I can say.

1572
01:07:09,602 --> 01:07:11,538
Soon, but not this week?

1573
01:07:12,205 --> 01:07:14,507
[Amber VO] I need them
here; there's so much to do.

1574
01:07:14,541 --> 01:07:16,409
What do we need to
get Trey's sign-off on?

1575
01:07:16,443 --> 01:07:17,977
We just need time with them!

1576
01:07:18,010 --> 01:07:19,712
We keep getting
cut short on time, so--

1577
01:07:19,746 --> 01:07:20,913
[Dana] We
haven't had any time.

1578
01:07:20,947 --> 01:07:22,182
I know, I know, I
get it, I get it!

1579
01:07:22,215 --> 01:07:24,384
You guys have had eight
times the time of anyone else.

1580
01:07:24,417 --> 01:07:26,386
I get it, but, like,
they gotta suck it.

1581
01:07:26,419 --> 01:07:27,887
Like, sorry.

1582
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,023
We are having all sorts of
problems within our departments.

1583
01:07:31,057 --> 01:07:33,025
After this
conversation we have today,

1584
01:07:33,059 --> 01:07:35,362
I expect all the drama to cease!

1585
01:07:35,395 --> 01:07:37,029
We're gonna put a bunch
of shit on the board,

1586
01:07:37,063 --> 01:07:39,766
and our job every day
is to empty the board.

1587
01:07:46,973 --> 01:07:48,941
I'm hesitant to show it to you.

1588
01:07:48,975 --> 01:07:50,577
When they put the
eyes in, he's wall-eye,

1589
01:07:50,610 --> 01:07:53,213
and one ear is
bigger than the other.

1590
01:07:54,481 --> 01:07:56,983
That's literally what they did.

1591
01:07:58,285 --> 01:08:00,387
What in the name of fuck?

1592
01:08:00,420 --> 01:08:01,621
I know!

1593
01:08:01,654 --> 01:08:03,423
That's why I said, "We're..."

1594
01:08:03,456 --> 01:08:05,292
[man] Hey, language, Trey!

1595
01:08:07,260 --> 01:08:08,795
[man] Four months?

1596
01:08:08,828 --> 01:08:09,862
N-- yeah.
[woman] Yeah.

1597
01:08:09,896 --> 01:08:11,631
No, two, two.
I'll give 'em two.

1598
01:08:11,664 --> 01:08:14,066
[man] Yeah, that's what
they wanted it to look like?

1599
01:08:14,467 --> 01:08:15,435
Goddamn it, dude.

1600
01:08:15,468 --> 01:08:17,069
Jesus Christ.

1601
01:08:17,103 --> 01:08:19,572
Black Bart's Cave is a signature
and we've been trying to get it

1602
01:08:19,606 --> 01:08:23,075
right, it just--
it's taken so much time.

1603
01:08:23,109 --> 01:08:25,612
[Trey VO] But he's working on
getting this so that you can...

1604
01:08:25,645 --> 01:08:27,813
go-- we can do the
thing: get a fortune,

1605
01:08:27,847 --> 01:08:29,649
have it talk, give
you the fortune.

1606
01:08:29,682 --> 01:08:31,784
Yeah, so what the process
is, you come over here,

1607
01:08:31,817 --> 01:08:32,619
you swipe your card...

1608
01:08:32,652 --> 01:08:35,987
I know, but I
wanna see it happen.

1609
01:08:36,022 --> 01:08:38,424
He said, "Every time I
come, they say it worked,

1610
01:08:38,458 --> 01:08:40,826
but when they went to
show me, it didn't work."

1611
01:08:40,860 --> 01:08:43,630
The volcano kind of
erupted, but then,

1612
01:08:43,663 --> 01:08:45,697
the smoke didn't
come out properly.

1613
01:08:46,665 --> 01:08:49,268
And then, we went to
look at the matador bull,

1614
01:08:49,302 --> 01:08:51,504
and it sorta
stopped in the middle.

1615
01:08:53,473 --> 01:08:56,107
*triumphant horn plays

1616
01:08:56,142 --> 01:08:57,810
I thought he was gonna fall.

1617
01:08:57,844 --> 01:08:59,478
[man] That's what
we thought, too.

1618
01:08:59,512 --> 01:09:00,947
He was gonna do this.

1619
01:09:00,980 --> 01:09:02,682
That's the first time I've
really seen him frustrated.

1620
01:09:02,714 --> 01:09:03,616
[Trey VO] I
really need this hung;

1621
01:09:03,650 --> 01:09:04,851
I told them last week.

1622
01:09:04,884 --> 01:09:06,486
[man VO] Okay.

1623
01:09:06,518 --> 01:09:07,654
[Trey] I need it hung so we can
start fucking around with it.

1624
01:09:07,687 --> 01:09:09,621
[man] Do you want
just temp hung?

1625
01:09:09,656 --> 01:09:11,924
I mean, if someone can
hang it, let's fuckin' do it.

1626
01:09:11,958 --> 01:09:13,326
[man] Okay.

1627
01:09:15,728 --> 01:09:16,763
[Trey VO] As I walk
around, I'm like,

1628
01:09:16,795 --> 01:09:18,665
"Well, that's not
done, that's not done,

1629
01:09:18,697 --> 01:09:20,267
it's not even..."

1630
01:09:20,299 --> 01:09:21,167
[chuckles] They're talking about
"Oh, we're changing the sched--"

1631
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:22,835
It's like, "You guys,
we're not done!"

1632
01:09:22,869 --> 01:09:24,471
[laughs]

1633
01:09:24,504 --> 01:09:25,538
And everyone seems
to be like, "Mm."

1634
01:09:25,572 --> 01:09:27,039
You know, it's like, look!
Look at this.

1635
01:09:27,072 --> 01:09:28,275
This is not done.

1636
01:09:28,308 --> 01:09:30,477
I started, like,
hanging pictures up,

1637
01:09:30,509 --> 01:09:32,512
because I'm like, "Okay, this
is what this is supposed to be,

1638
01:09:32,545 --> 01:09:33,780
remember?"

1639
01:09:33,813 --> 01:09:34,981
And they're like, "No,
we should just open!"

1640
01:09:35,013 --> 01:09:37,683
It's like, "That's not
done, you guys!" [chuckles]

1641
01:09:38,351 --> 01:09:40,286
First impressions are gonna
be really important with this,

1642
01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:41,853
you know?

1643
01:09:41,888 --> 01:09:44,723
And it's like, everyone's worked
so hard to make it so cool that,

1644
01:09:44,757 --> 01:09:46,659
like, why fuck it
up now, you know?

1645
01:09:46,692 --> 01:09:51,364
*tense music

1646
01:09:51,397 --> 01:09:53,866
My last two trips
out, I've said,

1647
01:09:53,900 --> 01:09:56,703
"My next trip out, I
wanna go up with a card,

1648
01:09:56,736 --> 01:09:58,705
do the thing, get a fortune."
[man] Okay.

1649
01:09:58,738 --> 01:10:01,408
And they've not been
able to get close to that.

1650
01:10:06,779 --> 01:10:09,382
And the fucking assayer
to do a fucking coin.

1651
01:10:09,416 --> 01:10:11,518
Like, it's-- it's that shit.

[Anne VO] I'm worried for them!

1655
01:10:24,797 --> 01:10:28,535
This is a huge thing, and I
think they're not quite ready,

1656
01:10:28,568 --> 01:10:31,604
and I wish we had a
little more time.

1657
01:10:31,638 --> 01:10:34,341
But in the meantime, the entire
Denver press will be here --

1658
01:10:34,374 --> 01:10:36,008
over 100 people.

1659
01:10:36,042 --> 01:10:39,011
[Kristian VO] We are so excited
to be able to give you the first

1660

look at the new Casa Bonita.

1661
01:10:41,147 --> 01:10:44,116
Now, we are limited on what
we can and can't show you,

1662
01:10:44,150 --> 01:10:46,586
but it so amazing in here!

1663
01:10:46,619 --> 01:10:49,822
We still don't know when they
will officially be opening.

1664
01:10:56,663 --> 01:10:58,365
Well, I don't know about that.

1665
01:10:58,398 --> 01:10:59,799
[Trey VO] I feel like
Cartman a lot here;

1666
01:10:59,832 --> 01:11:01,133
you know, just going,
"And we could do this,

1667
01:11:01,167 --> 01:11:02,268
and we could do that!

1668
01:11:02,301 --> 01:11:03,403
You know, and we could do this!
[laughs]

1669
01:11:03,436 --> 01:11:04,571
Watching Trey walk
around, you know,

1670
01:11:04,604 --> 01:11:06,439
he's feeling it as
much as Cartman would.

1671
01:11:06,473 --> 01:11:07,940
[laughter]

1672
01:11:07,974 --> 01:11:11,010
People will be lined up all
the way to downtown Denver!

1673
01:11:15,815 --> 01:11:18,050
Well, the permits are
cleared, the staff is hired,

1674
01:11:18,084 --> 01:11:20,953
and now, it is a waiting game to
see when Casa Bonita will open

1675
01:11:20,987 --> 01:11:22,389
for business.

1676
01:11:22,422 --> 01:11:23,590
It's all anybody's talking about
in the newsroom, right?

1677
01:11:23,623 --> 01:11:25,224
Let's go, guys!
"When is it gonna happen?!"

1678
01:11:25,257 --> 01:11:26,626
[female reporter VO] Well, get
this: fans are literally waiting

1679
01:11:26,659 --> 01:11:29,429
outside the restaurant
daily to try and get in.

1680
01:11:29,462 --> 01:11:31,431
We have definitely been
stalking Casa Bonita...

1681
01:11:31,464 --> 01:11:32,765
[laughs]
for the opening.

1682
01:11:32,799 --> 01:11:34,266
Most definitely.

1683
01:11:34,300 --> 01:11:36,603
We knew it was opening in
May, so we were hoping that this

1684
01:11:36,636 --> 01:11:38,638
would be the weekend and
we booked our tickets.

1685
01:11:38,671 --> 01:11:41,273
[man VO] I've been camping out
in my car here since Monday.

1686
01:11:41,307 --> 01:11:44,811
I called my boss and said, "Hey,
is it cool if I take my vacation

1687
01:11:44,844 --> 01:11:46,245
for the rest of the month?"

1688
01:11:46,278 --> 01:11:49,215
So, uh, hopefully I'll be
the first one in the door.

1689
01:11:50,316 --> 01:11:52,819
People are getting ready to line
up outside because it's the end

1690
01:11:52,852 --> 01:11:55,254
of May and say, "They
said they'd open in May!"

1691
01:11:55,287 --> 01:11:57,690
We're still doing things;
there's still a lot of work

1692
01:11:57,724 --> 01:11:58,658
being done.

[Matt VO] We're
having like a hundred,

1695
01:12:08,034 --> 01:12:09,335
150 people tonight, just
come through the line,

1696
01:12:09,368 --> 01:12:10,870
put their credit card in,
even though it's a dud --

1697
01:12:10,903 --> 01:12:13,105
it doesn't
really charge them --

1698
01:12:13,139 --> 01:12:14,674
get their water,
come and sit.

1699
01:12:14,707 --> 01:12:15,708
And then we'll...

1700
01:12:15,742 --> 01:12:17,276
There's a few
little things open,

1701
01:12:17,309 --> 01:12:18,878
and we'll have the music on,
and try to make it a nice time,

1702
01:12:18,911 --> 01:12:20,647
and then it's like that's it.

1703
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:21,814
We're a little nervous.

01:12:44,170 --> 01:12:46,072
and the brisket suadero!

1708
01:12:46,105 --> 01:12:47,907
Who got the brisket?

1709
01:12:47,940 --> 01:12:49,275
No?

1710
01:12:51,077 --> 01:12:52,078
[woman] You are all set.
Thanks so much.

1711
01:12:52,111 --> 01:12:53,680
You have a great evening.

1712
01:12:54,781 --> 01:12:56,683
[man] Is this real?
[woman] I don't know.

1713
01:12:56,716 --> 01:12:57,817
[man] Okay.

1714
01:12:57,850 --> 01:12:59,719
So don't make it
yet, don't make it yet!

1715
01:12:59,752 --> 01:13:01,921
No, that's a
different ticket, so...

1716
01:13:01,954 --> 01:13:03,523
which one is it?

1717
01:13:03,556 --> 01:13:07,093
***

1718
01:13:07,126 --> 01:13:08,895
Isabella, I'm here for you!

1719
01:13:08,928 --> 01:13:09,929
[Isabella] All
right, see ya later!

1720
01:13:09,962 --> 01:13:10,963
Good luck getting down!

1721
01:13:10,997 --> 01:13:12,164
There's one thing I
wanted to talk to you ab--

1722
01:13:12,198 --> 01:13:14,133
I have a question, Isabella!

1723
01:13:14,567 --> 01:13:16,569
All right, sir, I'll
be right behind you.

1724
01:13:16,603 --> 01:13:17,937
[chuckles]

1725
01:13:17,970 --> 01:13:19,071
[Sheriff] Sorry
about that, folks.

1726
01:13:19,105 --> 01:13:20,773
Enjoy your dinner.

1727
01:13:21,373 --> 01:13:23,175
[man, singing] *Casa Bonita!
Casa Bonita!*

1728
01:13:23,209 --> 01:13:24,544
*Na na na na!

1729
01:13:24,577 --> 01:13:26,713
*Casa Bonita!
Casa Bonita!*

1730
01:13:26,746 --> 01:13:28,915
*Da da da da!

1731
01:13:28,948 --> 01:13:31,150
Oh, cool, ahh!

1732
01:13:31,951 --> 01:13:36,956
[cheering]

1733
01:13:48,334 --> 01:13:49,802
[hawk screeches]

1734
01:13:50,603 --> 01:13:51,738
[man VO] How did you
feel about it last night?

1735
01:13:51,771 --> 01:13:53,906
It just was so not Casa Bonita.

1736
01:13:53,940 --> 01:13:55,775
It felt like...

1737
01:13:55,808 --> 01:13:58,811
It felt like a
nightclub in San Diego.

1738
01:13:59,478 --> 01:14:03,215
The steps that we have to do on
the cashier is nine steps per

1739
01:14:03,249 --> 01:14:03,983
individual.

1740
01:14:04,016 --> 01:14:05,885
It takes for-fuckin'-ever.

1741
01:14:05,918 --> 01:14:08,788
I have six cashiers trying to
assign tables at the same time,

1742
01:14:08,821 --> 01:14:12,124
which means what happens is
sometimes the same table gets

1743
01:14:12,158 --> 01:14:13,225
assigned at the same time.

1744
01:14:13,259 --> 01:14:14,661
[woman] Like three times, yeah.

1745
01:14:14,694 --> 01:14:15,962
When the characters were
interacting with each other and

1746
01:14:15,995 --> 01:14:18,430
doing their little
sketches, always failed.

1747
01:14:18,464 --> 01:14:20,600
When the characters really
interact with the kids and the

1748
01:14:20,633 --> 01:14:23,002
kids know what it is,
that's when it works.

1749
01:14:23,035 --> 01:14:24,236
[Dana] Hopefully
we fix one problem,

1750
01:14:24,270 --> 01:14:25,938
and then we can
attack the next one.

1751
01:14:25,972 --> 01:14:27,574
[woman] That's what
this is all about, right?

1752
01:14:27,607 --> 01:14:29,842
[Matt] Yeah.
[laughs]

1753
01:14:29,876 --> 01:14:31,410
And after eight million years...

1754
01:14:31,443 --> 01:14:33,145
[Dana] We will
open in a few years!

1755
01:14:33,179 --> 01:14:34,981

1756
01:14:35,014 --> 01:14:40,019
*tense curious music

1757
01:14:42,188 --> 01:14:44,591
[Trey VO] As soon as we opened
the doors and brought people in,

1758
01:14:44,624 --> 01:14:45,958
that's when it
was just like, "Oh,

1759
01:14:45,992 --> 01:14:48,194
this is completely wrong."

1760
01:14:48,227 --> 01:14:50,663
***

1761
01:14:50,697 --> 01:14:54,033
Now we have two days to figure
out what do we need to fix and

1762
01:14:54,066 --> 01:14:56,603
what do we wanna make look
better and what do we wanna add?

1763
01:14:56,636 --> 01:14:59,872
***

1764
01:14:59,906 --> 01:15:01,040
It's like, "Are you kidding?

1765
01:15:01,073 --> 01:15:01,974
We're gonna have
the public come in?"

1766
01:15:02,008 --> 01:15:02,842
You know, and it's
just like, "Oh my God!

1767
01:15:02,875 --> 01:15:03,976
Like, this isn't ready!"

1768
01:15:04,010 --> 01:15:05,978
But it just makes you go.

1769
01:15:06,012 --> 01:15:08,180

01:15:08,214 --> 01:15:10,216
[explosion]

1771
01:15:10,249 --> 01:15:12,484
Yeah, if we can, it'd be nice to
get some over there, too.

1772
01:15:12,518 --> 01:15:14,053
[man] Over there also?

1773

***

1774
01:15:16,222 --> 01:15:18,490
[Trey] So first, the lights dim.

1775
01:15:18,524 --> 01:15:20,026
Then, it lights up there.

1776
01:15:20,059 --> 01:15:22,862
Then, it starts to
explode and go off.

1777
01:15:23,329 --> 01:15:25,397
There's part of me that feels
like the doors are gonna open

1778
01:15:25,431 --> 01:15:27,233
and I'm gonna bolt,

1779
01:15:27,266 --> 01:15:29,869
because this isn't perfect
or that isn't perfect.

1780
01:15:29,902 --> 01:15:32,639
***

1781
01:15:32,672 --> 01:15:35,274
Holy shit, man, I'm so tired.

1785
01:15:59,131 --> 01:16:02,501
I'm excited to see, um,
how Casa Bonita has changed.

1786
01:16:02,534 --> 01:16:04,671
I had my
seventh birthday here,

1787
01:16:04,704 --> 01:16:07,273
which was my lucky
birthday, actually!

1788
01:16:07,306 --> 01:16:08,741
[man] I like your t-shirt!

1789
01:16:08,775 --> 01:16:10,710
[boy] Yeah!
Thanks!

1790
01:16:10,743 --> 01:16:13,680
We've been coming here since he
was about that high, so...

1791
01:16:13,713 --> 01:16:14,546
[man] Oh, really?
Oh, yeah.

1792
01:16:14,580 --> 01:16:15,915
Yeah.

1793
01:16:15,948 --> 01:16:17,116
I'm excited for her to
experience what I did all those

1794
01:16:17,149 --> 01:16:18,284
years.

1795
01:16:20,586 --> 01:16:21,954
[Dana] All right, everybody!

1796
01:16:21,988 --> 01:16:24,724
This is our first night!
Whatever you're doing, have fun!

1797
01:16:24,757 --> 01:16:26,292
But also, don't fuck it up!

01:16:27,927 --> 01:16:30,963
Today is your day
to lead your teams!

1800
01:16:30,997 --> 01:16:32,564
Certain things, we can fix!

1801
01:16:32,598 --> 01:16:34,466
Certain things, we cannot!

1802
01:16:34,500 --> 01:16:38,537
So it's important that we're
all together in this as a team!

1803
01:16:38,570 --> 01:16:39,371
We are doers!

1804
01:16:39,405 --> 01:16:40,940
We're here to make shit happen!

1805
01:16:40,973 --> 01:16:42,274
Okay?!

I was disappointed because the

1827
01:18:07,026 --> 01:18:09,061
food wasn't that good.

1828
01:18:09,095 --> 01:18:11,063
But right now,

1829

I'm super happy with,

'cause I think that was a real
collaborative thing that became

1837
01:18:33,219 --> 01:18:35,888
something that was different
than any of us thought but was,

1838

01:20:24,163 --> 01:20:25,697
My turn!

1883
01:20:25,731 --> 01:20:29,601
I went on a treasure hunt with
Isabella and I got a treasure!

1885
01:20:33,205 --> 01:20:35,174
Yeah!

1886
01:20:36,408 --> 01:20:38,810
[man's voice] It's gonna blow!

Bad news!

1890
01:20:50,556 --> 01:20:52,558
[woman] Oh, no!

1891
01:20:52,591 --> 01:20:54,726
One, two, three...pull!

1892
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:57,729
***

1893
01:20:57,763 --> 01:20:59,398
The volcano...

1894
01:20:59,431 --> 01:21:01,367
is about to erupt!

1895
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:06,572

1897
01:21:10,376 --> 01:21:12,011
[chanting] Puppet show!

1898
01:21:12,044 --> 01:21:13,579
Puppet show!

1899
01:21:13,612 --> 01:21:15,381
Puppet show!

1900
01:21:15,414 --> 01:21:17,683
Puppet show!

1901
01:21:23,789 --> 01:21:25,657
It reminds you
what it's all about.

1902
01:21:25,691 --> 01:21:27,393
You kinda...

1903
01:21:27,426 --> 01:21:28,760
I think, you know, we lost...

1904
01:21:28,794 --> 01:21:30,829
[chuckling] we lost a
bit of track of that.

1905
01:21:30,862 --> 01:21:32,664
You forget that-- that...

1906
01:21:32,698 --> 01:21:35,834
you know, it's like doing
theater without an audience.

1907
01:21:35,867 --> 01:21:38,004
*Welcome to the
puppet show*

1908
01:21:38,037 --> 01:21:39,438
*It's about to start

1909
01:21:39,471 --> 01:21:40,939
*Get ready...

1910
01:21:40,973 --> 01:21:42,274
[Trey VO] Watching little kids
run around having the time of

1911
01:21:42,308 --> 01:21:45,811
their lives is
fun for everybody.

1912
01:21:46,312 --> 01:21:50,049
And now, please give
a big welcome for...

1913
01:21:50,082 --> 01:21:52,018
a taco!

1914
01:21:52,051 --> 01:21:57,023
[cheers and applause]

1915
01:21:57,056 --> 01:22:00,059
I think a lot of it is like,
"I remember that feeling,"

1916
01:22:00,092 --> 01:22:01,193
[chuckles] you know what I mean?

1917
01:22:01,227 --> 01:22:03,462
Especially if you
came here as a kid.

1918
01:22:03,495 --> 01:22:04,463
This is about...

1919
01:22:04,496 --> 01:22:06,265
This is about kids.

1920
01:22:06,298 --> 01:22:11,303
*tender mellow music

1921
01:22:24,483 --> 01:22:28,287
[cheers and applause]

1922
01:22:31,490 --> 01:22:33,259
Pretty big success tonight.

1923
01:22:33,292 --> 01:22:34,260
Congratulations.

1924
01:22:34,293 --> 01:22:35,661
Can we hug?

1925
01:22:35,694 --> 01:22:38,097
I think that's what
success looks like.

1926
01:22:38,364 --> 01:22:40,066
It was really good.

1927
01:22:40,099 --> 01:22:43,135
[Trey] Ladies and gentlemen,
let's hear it for everyone

1928
01:22:43,169 --> 01:22:46,472
working so hard at Casa Bonita!

1929
01:22:46,505 --> 01:22:49,141
[cheers and applause]

1930
01:22:49,175 --> 01:22:54,180
*mellow cheery music

1931
01:22:57,316 --> 01:22:59,751
Cannonball!

*mellow cheery music

1935
01:23:22,708 --> 01:23:25,144
[Matt VO] It's super cool;
we're super proud of it.

1936
01:23:26,445 --> 01:23:27,546
I don't know anybody who
could come there and be like,

1937
01:23:27,579 --> 01:23:28,780
[nasal voice] "Well,
it was better before,"

1938
01:23:28,814 --> 01:23:30,982
'cause it fucking
wasn't, you know what I mean?

1939
01:23:31,016 --> 01:23:33,752
[chuckles]
It's so much better now.

1940
01:23:34,853 --> 01:23:36,722
But, I mean, we're not
gonna be here making it happen.

1941
01:23:36,755 --> 01:23:38,524
You know, we
don't even live here.

1942
01:23:38,557 --> 01:23:40,959
All you can do is-- it's
kind of like having a child,

1943
01:23:40,992 --> 01:23:42,328
where you get them ready
to go out in the world,

1944
01:23:42,361 --> 01:23:43,962
and then you let go.

1945
01:23:43,995 --> 01:23:48,334
***

1946
01:23:48,367 --> 01:23:50,602
No one would've done it
like the way we did it...

1947
01:23:51,237 --> 01:23:53,705
'cause it didn't make any
sense and it wasn't smart.

1948
01:23:53,739 --> 01:23:55,341
[laughing] You know what I mean?

1949
01:23:55,374 --> 01:23:56,708
So it's like...
You know?

1950
01:23:56,742 --> 01:23:58,910
But it's so...
I'm really, really proud of it.

1951
01:23:58,944 --> 01:24:01,580
It's cool, man.
It's a really cool thing, so...

1952
01:24:01,613 --> 01:24:03,915
***

1953
01:24:03,949 --> 01:24:06,552
[Trey VO] I never let
myself try to think that, like,

1954
01:24:06,585 --> 01:24:09,955
I own Casa Boni-- that
Casa Bonita's mine in any way.

1955
01:24:11,590 --> 01:24:13,559
'Cause it's not; it's
fleeting, and it's like,

1956
01:24:13,592 --> 01:24:17,563
I know-- I know that this is
just a moment in Casa Bonita's

1957
01:24:17,596 --> 01:24:18,597
life.

1958
01:24:18,630 --> 01:24:21,567
***

1959
01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:25,937
A lot of the work and the
money was just saving it,

1960
01:24:25,971 --> 01:24:29,408
was just making it be able to
be there in another 50 years.

1961
01:24:29,441 --> 01:24:34,446
***

1962
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:37,783
[bull grunting]

1963
01:24:37,816 --> 01:24:39,751
[man screaming]

1964
01:24:39,785 --> 01:24:44,790
***

1965
01:24:45,891 --> 01:24:48,794
Honestly, I could do this
for the rest of my life,

1966
01:24:48,827 --> 01:24:50,596
and I could probably be pretty
happy doing it -- you know,

1967
01:24:50,629 --> 01:24:53,064
move to Denver, I'm just sort
of creatively in charge of

1968
01:24:53,098 --> 01:24:54,600
Casa Bonita.

1969
01:24:55,667 --> 01:24:58,270
And, you know,
that's a cool life.

1970
01:24:58,304 --> 01:24:59,405
But...

1971
01:24:59,438 --> 01:25:02,073
this really crazy
thing happened where...

1972
01:25:02,107 --> 01:25:03,775
we kinda had the
first just like "Okay,

1973
01:25:03,809 --> 01:25:06,478
we're gonna let a lot of
the public in tonight,"

1974
01:25:06,512 --> 01:25:08,447
and people were
coming in and going,

1975
01:25:08,480 --> 01:25:09,881
"Look, there's the waterfall!

1976
01:25:09,915 --> 01:25:10,982
Look, there's the mines!

1977
01:25:11,016 --> 01:25:12,418
Look, there's Trey Parker!"

1978
01:25:12,451 --> 01:25:13,985
And, you know, they
would just come up and go,

1979
01:25:14,019 --> 01:25:16,087
"I'm gonna get a picture
of my son with Santa now,"

1980
01:25:16,121 --> 01:25:17,823
and it was just like,
oh, yeah, I'm just, like,

1981
01:25:17,856 --> 01:25:19,658
a distraction.

1982
01:25:20,259 --> 01:25:22,461
And it was just this really--
[chuckles] this kind of really

1983
01:25:22,494 --> 01:25:25,030
sad moment of, like, "Wow...

1984
01:25:25,664 --> 01:25:27,666
I can't be here!"

1985
01:25:27,699 --> 01:25:32,638
***

1986
01:25:32,671 --> 01:25:36,442
It really was like a breakup,
because I was so intensely

1987
01:25:36,475 --> 01:25:39,445
involved -- emotionally and
physically and all of this stuff

1988
01:25:39,478 --> 01:25:41,146
-- with Casa Bonita.

1989
01:25:41,980 --> 01:25:43,449
And then it was suddenly like...

1990
01:25:43,482 --> 01:25:46,652
this place that had
brought me so much happiness...

1991
01:25:46,685 --> 01:25:48,687
I kinda can't go.

1992
01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:53,492
***

1993
01:25:57,529 --> 01:26:01,467
It ended up being just like
the episode of South Park,

1994
01:26:01,500 --> 01:26:03,702
because it's like
the cops come to me,

1995
01:26:03,735 --> 01:26:05,537
and they say, "Well...

1996
01:26:05,571 --> 01:26:08,840
you've spent
millions of dollars

1997
01:26:08,874 --> 01:26:10,676
you might
never get back,

1998
01:26:10,709 --> 01:26:14,680
you-- you've spent
a ton of time and, uh--

1999
01:26:14,713 --> 01:26:16,482
when you, you know, could
have been doing a lot of other

2000
01:26:16,515 --> 01:26:17,749
things,

2001
01:26:17,783 --> 01:26:20,552
and you now have made
Casa Bonita a place you can't

2002
01:26:20,586 --> 01:26:23,121
even go enjoy yourself.

2003
01:26:23,154 --> 01:26:24,856
Was it worth it?"

2004
01:26:24,890 --> 01:26:26,057
Totally.

2005
01:26:26,091 --> 01:26:28,694
