1
00:00:02,916 --> 00:00:05,416
What the hell is wrong
with Chicago?
2
00:00:05,588 --> 00:00:06,711
Too windy?
3
00:00:06,799 --> 00:00:08,322
Too murder-y?
4
00:00:09,165 --> 00:00:11,400
Too much improv
and racial tension?
5
00:00:11,923 --> 00:00:15,408
No! Somebody wrote a bad
review about my truck on Yelp.
6
00:00:15,525 --> 00:00:18,392
They've described my food as
"Farm to toilet."
7
00:00:19,062 --> 00:00:20,400
What the hell is Yelp?
8
00:00:20,468 --> 00:00:22,908
It's a Web site where
customers can review plumbers,
9
00:00:22,976 --> 00:00:24,441
restaurants, stores...
10
00:00:24,509 --> 00:00:25,595
Yelp sounds stupid.
11
00:00:25,697 --> 00:00:27,394
Superior Donuts got five stars.
12
00:00:27,462 --> 00:00:29,072
I always liked Yelp.
13
00:00:29,845 --> 00:00:31,736
"Old-world charm...
14
00:00:31,884 --> 00:00:34,345
"The best donuts in Chicago...
15
00:00:34,454 --> 00:00:38,579
Owner and employee have a fun
Chico and the Man dynamic."
16
00:00:40,264 --> 00:00:42,626
Arthur, people love your donuts.
17
00:00:42,816 --> 00:00:45,494
This has got tons of great reviews.
Uh-oh.
18
00:00:45,681 --> 00:00:48,907
What? Who gave me one star?
19
00:00:49,181 --> 00:00:50,806
"Uptown Java Junkie."
20
00:00:50,892 --> 00:00:52,491
"I come here all the time."
21
00:00:52,586 --> 00:00:54,438
What a loser.
22
00:00:55,442 --> 00:00:56,828
Go ahead.
23
00:00:56,930 --> 00:01:00,008
Uh, "I love the atmosphere,
and the donuts are thick and chewy."
24
00:01:00,086 --> 00:01:01,227
So why just one star?
25
00:01:01,336 --> 00:01:03,070
"Unfortunately, so is the coffee."
26
00:01:03,138 --> 00:01:05,243
Oh, cr...! Man... what?
27
00:01:05,313 --> 00:01:08,102
"Their coffee turns me off-y."
28
00:01:09,899 --> 00:01:12,016
That should be a T-shirt.
29
00:01:12,649 --> 00:01:15,407
How could anyone say that?
I pride myself on my coffee.
30
00:01:15,594 --> 00:01:17,680
Uptown Java Junkie,
31
00:01:17,875 --> 00:01:19,852
you are banned.
32
00:01:21,430 --> 00:01:22,635
- Arthur.
- Hmm?
33
00:01:22,703 --> 00:01:24,987
You can't do that.
It's anonymous.
34
00:01:25,055 --> 00:01:26,284
- It could be anybody.
- Yeah,
35
00:01:26,352 --> 00:01:28,549
but we know
he comes here all the time.
36
00:01:28,625 --> 00:01:29,782
Or she.
37
00:01:29,868 --> 00:01:31,063
I'll bet it is a she.
38
00:01:31,168 --> 00:01:33,063
The review has a tone.
39
00:01:34,219 --> 00:01:36,844
Arthur, it's-it's one person's opinion.
40
00:01:36,985 --> 00:01:39,579
And it could be a woman, so... meh.
41
00:01:41,758 --> 00:01:43,883
Look, if it bothers you that much,
42
00:01:43,969 --> 00:01:46,352
why don't you try a different coffee?
43
00:01:46,422 --> 00:01:48,414
What?! No, I'm not gonna change it.
44
00:01:48,547 --> 00:01:49,907
People come here for my coffee
45
00:01:49,983 --> 00:01:52,750
and my warm, inviting atmosphere!
46
00:01:55,108 --> 00:01:57,032
Yo, Arthur,
can I take the rest of the day off
47
00:01:57,100 --> 00:01:58,303
if I come in to work tonight?
48
00:01:58,428 --> 00:01:59,490
We're not open at night.
49
00:01:59,561 --> 00:02:01,444
Cool. See you tomorrow.
50
00:02:02,492 --> 00:02:03,812
How's the first week
of school?
51
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,167
Great. It's pretty much
everything I hoped it would be.
52
00:02:06,235 --> 00:02:07,696
Got to head
to my professor's office
53
00:02:07,764 --> 00:02:09,985
to hand in my first, uh...
what's the word?
54
00:02:10,053 --> 00:02:11,821
- Assignment?
- Masterpiece!
55
00:02:14,688 --> 00:02:16,248
Well, at least you're humble.
56
00:02:16,316 --> 00:02:18,438
Well, it's hard to be
humble when you made this.
57
00:02:18,696 --> 00:02:19,735
- Oh!
- Whoa!
58
00:02:19,813 --> 00:02:21,781
- Jesus on a skateboard.
- Yeah.
59
00:02:21,849 --> 00:02:23,104
Everybody likes
skateboarding,
60
00:02:23,172 --> 00:02:24,985
and a lot of people like some Jesus.
61
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,698
Well, I'm glad he's enjoying himself.
62
00:02:27,766 --> 00:02:29,696
It does not end well for him.
63
00:02:30,563 --> 00:02:32,752
Well, the class is called
"Intro to Figure Drawing."
64
00:02:32,828 --> 00:02:34,528
I got to take it for my major,
you know.
65
00:02:34,596 --> 00:02:36,828
The assignment was a
basic pencil sketch,
66
00:02:36,963 --> 00:02:38,648
and I'm pretty beyond all that,
so...
67
00:02:38,716 --> 00:02:40,140
The detail is amazing.
68
00:02:40,208 --> 00:02:43,390
Look, he's wearing himself
on a gold chain.
69
00:02:44,178 --> 00:02:46,528
Yeah. This is gonna blow
my professor away.
70
00:02:46,596 --> 00:02:48,560
You know, I'm hoping he might
recommend me to a gallery,
71
00:02:48,627 --> 00:02:51,176
and I get my own show,
and I'll be the next Basquiat,
72
00:02:51,244 --> 00:02:52,772
and Rihanna writes a song
about me.
73
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,153
You know, the usual stuff.
You know?
74
00:02:55,586 --> 00:02:59,236
All right, bless me,
Skateboard Jesus. Mwah.
75
00:02:59,820 --> 00:03:01,799
- Got to bounce.
- Good luck.
76
00:03:01,877 --> 00:03:04,158
Don't need luck,
got a masterpiece!
77
00:03:05,455 --> 00:03:09,244
Oh! "Farm to toilet,"
I just got it.

*SUPERIOR DONUTS*
Episode Title: "Grades With Wrath"
80
00:03:33,106 --> 00:03:34,715
So this is my first college
assignment.
81
00:03:34,783 --> 00:03:37,548
So I just, like, what, drop this
off and then you send me my A-plus?
82
00:03:38,977 --> 00:03:42,064
No, you stand there,
and I give you a C-minus.
83
00:03:42,348 --> 00:03:43,649
C-minus?
84
00:03:43,927 --> 00:03:45,162
I would give you a D,
85
00:03:45,238 --> 00:03:47,767
but then I'd have to fill out
all that probationary paperwork,
86
00:03:47,861 --> 00:03:49,892
pull the Dean into it.
87
00:03:49,967 --> 00:03:51,603
I've outlasted three Deans.
88
00:03:51,671 --> 00:03:53,665
I do not intend to meet this one.
89
00:03:54,119 --> 00:03:57,150
Dude, I need at least a B-minus
to keep my financial aid.
90
00:03:57,241 --> 00:03:58,308
I understand.
91
00:03:58,390 --> 00:04:00,242
Unfortunately,
you didn't do the assignment,
92
00:04:00,310 --> 00:04:02,293
which was a pencil
portrait of a human figure.
93
00:04:02,361 --> 00:04:05,646
Which is so basic.
What I did was way cooler, man.
94
00:04:05,714 --> 00:04:06,800
It-it makes a statement
95
00:04:06,868 --> 00:04:08,751
about people's conceptions of religion.
96
00:04:08,852 --> 00:04:10,611
I bet nobody else did that.
97
00:04:10,721 --> 00:04:13,798
You're right.
Everybody else did the assignment.
98
00:04:15,564 --> 00:04:18,595
You are really obsessed
with this assignment, man.
99
00:04:19,009 --> 00:04:22,126
Yo, I'm 28, I-I've been a
street artist for ten years.
100
00:04:22,194 --> 00:04:24,085
All right? This is my thing.
101
00:04:24,168 --> 00:04:26,431
Well, my thing is
not to reward students
102
00:04:26,499 --> 00:04:28,625
who think that they're clever
enough to dodge the assignment.
103
00:04:28,692 --> 00:04:30,483
Ah! Heard "clever."
104
00:04:31,522 --> 00:04:34,062
You know, Mr. Wicks, with your attitude,
105
00:04:34,130 --> 00:04:37,108
I could actually see you being a
professional painter in a few years.
106
00:04:37,214 --> 00:04:38,663
That's my dream right there,
man.
107
00:04:38,731 --> 00:04:41,523
Wh-Wh-What you mean,
like murals o-o-or portraits?
108
00:04:41,618 --> 00:04:43,983
No,
I meant like a house.
109
00:04:45,762 --> 00:04:46,763
Think about it.
110
00:04:46,866 --> 00:04:48,358
I'll give you the room.
111
00:04:51,206 --> 00:04:53,796
Ay, if you want to smite him,
I'll understand.
112
00:04:57,085 --> 00:04:59,343
Can I offer you a cup
of joe on the house?
113
00:04:59,469 --> 00:05:01,171
- No, thanks.
- "No, thanks"?
114
00:05:01,296 --> 00:05:03,889
That's a hell of a way to
tell me that my coffee sucks.
115
00:05:04,788 --> 00:05:06,134
Hey, you've got
something to say,
116
00:05:06,202 --> 00:05:08,374
have the balls to say it
to my face, huh?
117
00:05:08,835 --> 00:05:11,733
Maybe I'll Yelp you,
Java Junkie.
118
00:05:13,025 --> 00:05:14,561
No stars!
119
00:05:16,820 --> 00:05:20,054
Hey, it's a good thing you
got over that bad review.
120
00:05:21,046 --> 00:05:23,321
When did gutless weasels get
the power
121
00:05:23,389 --> 00:05:24,986
to criticize you anonymously?
122
00:05:25,054 --> 00:05:28,210
About eight minutes after
the Internet was invented.
123
00:05:29,296 --> 00:05:31,499
Why do you care what some
random person thinks?
124
00:05:31,568 --> 00:05:33,975
Because it's so public.
It's just out there
125
00:05:34,046 --> 00:05:37,413
zippity zappity-ing around
in the space cloud... web.
126
00:05:38,530 --> 00:05:40,259
What are you gonna do
if you find this guy?
127
00:05:40,326 --> 00:05:41,986
Put him on your "banned for life" list?
128
00:05:42,054 --> 00:05:43,148
Hey, if you don't like it,
129
00:05:43,216 --> 00:05:45,319
I can add your name right
below Wayne Mitchell.
130
00:05:46,287 --> 00:05:47,360
Poor Wayne.
131
00:05:47,428 --> 00:05:49,866
He just asked if you had one
of those cardboard cup trays.
132
00:05:49,983 --> 00:05:52,921
God gave you two hands, Wayne, use them!
133
00:05:54,698 --> 00:05:55,882
Hey, look!
134
00:05:55,965 --> 00:05:58,233
It's Leonardo DaFranco.
135
00:05:58,843 --> 00:05:59,952
What a talent.
136
00:06:00,061 --> 00:06:01,983
I'm so happy I bought
one of your paintings.
137
00:06:02,116 --> 00:06:04,429
You sure?
'Cause my professor gave me a C-minus.
138
00:06:04,545 --> 00:06:05,702
Oh.
139
00:06:05,770 --> 00:06:08,405
Well, I'll give it to my aunt.
She's blind.
140
00:06:09,655 --> 00:06:11,087
A C-minus?
141
00:06:11,155 --> 00:06:12,174
You got to be kidding me.
142
00:06:12,257 --> 00:06:13,601
Yeah, because
that's a great painting.
143
00:06:13,668 --> 00:06:14,689
I don't think he gets me.
144
00:06:14,757 --> 00:06:16,879
He's one of these stuffy,
by-the-book professors
145
00:06:16,947 --> 00:06:19,214
who wants me to start with the basics.
Which is cool.
146
00:06:19,282 --> 00:06:21,050
That's cool. I can do basics.
147
00:06:21,118 --> 00:06:22,519
Oh, that's the spirit, kid.
148
00:06:22,587 --> 00:06:24,702
All right, so, hey,
could somebody be my model?
149
00:06:25,088 --> 00:06:26,632
Right here in the donut shop?
150
00:06:26,818 --> 00:06:28,887
What sort of self-obsessed idiot...
151
00:06:28,962 --> 00:06:30,858
Bup! I'll do it.
152
00:06:31,889 --> 00:06:33,118
- Really?
- Yeah.
153
00:06:33,186 --> 00:06:35,766
I've done a lot of gigs
modeling for art students.
154
00:06:35,897 --> 00:06:37,397
It's a lot harder than you think.
155
00:06:37,491 --> 00:06:38,993
You got to sit there, in one place,
156
00:06:39,061 --> 00:06:41,271
for hours, barely moving.
157
00:06:41,686 --> 00:06:43,419
How do you do it?
158
00:06:44,733 --> 00:06:46,171
Where do you want me,
Franco?
159
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:50,310
All right, so I'm thinking
right by this window, you know.
160
00:06:51,067 --> 00:06:53,599
That'll accentuate your,
uh... No!
161
00:06:55,997 --> 00:06:57,888
Listen,
if you like your monty full,
162
00:06:57,956 --> 00:07:00,802
I'm gonna have to insist
we do this in the kitchen.
163
00:07:01,216 --> 00:07:02,492
No.
164
00:07:02,950 --> 00:07:05,349
Oh, hey, Tush.
New sweater?
165
00:07:06,822 --> 00:07:09,085
Hey, Tush,
I-I just remembered
166
00:07:09,153 --> 00:07:10,635
the model's supposed to have hair.
167
00:07:10,703 --> 00:07:12,533
So the kitchen, then?
168
00:07:16,172 --> 00:07:17,521
No.
169
00:07:18,325 --> 00:07:21,388
What I meant is,
maybe Sofia would be a better model.
170
00:07:21,456 --> 00:07:22,472
Hey, Sofia,
171
00:07:22,552 --> 00:07:24,047
would you mind
posing for my art class?
172
00:07:24,114 --> 00:07:25,505
It would only take ten minutes.
173
00:07:26,021 --> 00:07:27,970
Okay, but I'm not
taking my shirt off.
174
00:07:28,038 --> 00:07:29,177
Okay.
175
00:07:29,245 --> 00:07:30,412
All right,
but if you want somebody
176
00:07:30,479 --> 00:07:32,708
who's not ashamed
of their body,
177
00:07:33,177 --> 00:07:35,091
you know
where to find me.
178
00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:41,974
Do you like to draw?
179
00:07:45,584 --> 00:07:48,466
Why is this taking so
long?
180
00:07:48,724 --> 00:07:50,102
I'm the size of a lawn gnome.
181
00:07:50,216 --> 00:07:51,403
Yeah.
182
00:07:52,318 --> 00:07:54,372
Just putting on the finishing touches.
183
00:07:54,458 --> 00:07:55,954
Wasn't as simple as I thought it'd be,
184
00:07:56,021 --> 00:07:58,107
but I think you're gonna like it.
185
00:07:58,965 --> 00:08:01,091
- Hey, that's so good.
- Yeah.
186
00:08:01,247 --> 00:08:03,381
But why am I wearing
catcher's mitts?
187
00:08:04,788 --> 00:08:07,739
Oh, those are your hands.
188
00:08:08,024 --> 00:08:09,107
No.
189
00:08:09,216 --> 00:08:11,239
Because my fingers aren't webbed.
190
00:08:12,395 --> 00:08:14,591
Look, okay,
y-you were holding them all weird.
191
00:08:14,755 --> 00:08:16,208
Oh, so this is my fault?
192
00:08:16,299 --> 00:08:17,399
I'm going back to my truck.
193
00:08:17,467 --> 00:08:20,036
- Maybe I can swim there with my flippers.
- Wait.
194
00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:21,203
Hold on.
195
00:08:21,271 --> 00:08:23,974
Okay, okay, just give me
one more chance, all right?
196
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,338
Take a seat.
197
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:27,509
- Thank you.
- Okay.
198
00:08:27,634 --> 00:08:29,713
Here's your regular order,
199
00:08:29,913 --> 00:08:33,439
one dozen donuts without
anything to wash them down with
200
00:08:33,549 --> 00:08:36,127
because my coffee stinks?
201
00:08:38,474 --> 00:08:39,688
I didn't say that.
202
00:08:39,756 --> 00:08:40,996
You didn't have to,
203
00:08:41,064 --> 00:08:43,291
Uptown Java Junkie.
204
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,127
My name is Nathaniel.
205
00:08:46,250 --> 00:08:48,869
And I don't drink coffee, and,
yes, I used to be a junkie.
206
00:08:48,937 --> 00:08:51,777
But I have worked
very hard to get to this point, sir.
207
00:08:52,509 --> 00:08:54,939
Oh, look, uh...
thanks for coming.
208
00:08:55,162 --> 00:08:58,541
Hope you enjoyed
Verbal Abuse Wednesday.
209
00:08:59,290 --> 00:09:01,478
Arthur, you can't keep
doing this.
210
00:09:01,634 --> 00:09:03,715
I just got to find out
who wrote that review.
211
00:09:03,783 --> 00:09:06,176
Well, why don't you channel
that negative energy
212
00:09:06,244 --> 00:09:07,658
into something positive?
213
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,563
If those millennials don't
appreciate your coffee,
214
00:09:10,654 --> 00:09:12,556
why don't you offer an alternative?
215
00:09:12,697 --> 00:09:14,580
Like what? Tea and warm milk?
216
00:09:14,876 --> 00:09:17,478
That'll cover old ladies and cats.
217
00:09:19,119 --> 00:09:22,994
No, what I mean is,
offer them a different kind of coffee.
218
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,174
Okay, I guess I could do that.
219
00:09:25,402 --> 00:09:27,102
We could have a taste test later, huh.
220
00:09:27,170 --> 00:09:29,168
- Only, I can't participate.
- Why not?
221
00:09:29,236 --> 00:09:31,111
Because if I have coffee after 6:00,
222
00:09:31,197 --> 00:09:33,447
I'll be up until 8:00.
223
00:09:35,812 --> 00:09:37,968
Damn,
you got some dumb-ass fingers.
224
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:42,681
Well, maybe it'd be easier
if you drew them one at a time.
225
00:09:42,963 --> 00:09:44,721
Guess which one
you can start with.
226
00:09:44,789 --> 00:09:46,601
Okay, okay.
227
00:09:48,210 --> 00:09:51,290
I'm sorry. My bad.
It's such an easy assignment.
228
00:09:51,358 --> 00:09:53,312
I don't know
why it's so hard for me.
229
00:09:53,476 --> 00:09:55,198
All right,
what's going on here?
230
00:09:55,351 --> 00:09:57,640
Yeah, and why does Sofia
have bowling balls
231
00:09:57,710 --> 00:09:59,382
at the end of her arms?
232
00:10:03,473 --> 00:10:05,168
I can't draw hands, all right?
233
00:10:05,598 --> 00:10:08,316
Really? Seems pretty basic.
234
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,840
Did you think that would
make me feel better?
235
00:10:11,629 --> 00:10:13,201
Maybe
you should draw a pirate.
236
00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:15,652
That way,
one of the hands can be a hook.
237
00:10:18,121 --> 00:10:19,722
Man, how the hell am
I gonna end up in a gallery
238
00:10:19,789 --> 00:10:21,992
if I can't even do the first
assignment in art class?
239
00:10:22,316 --> 00:10:25,887
Well, supposed to be creative, right?
240
00:10:26,457 --> 00:10:29,058
I think
I have a creative solution.
241
00:10:36,530 --> 00:10:38,262
Pencil. Figure.
242
00:10:38,330 --> 00:10:40,199
Drawing. Bam!
243
00:10:41,832 --> 00:10:43,814
Well, I must say,
I am impressed.
244
00:10:43,882 --> 00:10:45,316
Not surprised.
245
00:10:45,448 --> 00:10:47,061
Usually my students
put the hands
246
00:10:47,129 --> 00:10:48,863
behind the backs of their
subjects
247
00:10:49,039 --> 00:10:51,457
when they don't know
how to draw hands.
248
00:10:53,743 --> 00:10:55,488
What?
249
00:10:57,794 --> 00:11:00,762
That's funny.
You a funny teacher.
250
00:11:01,573 --> 00:11:03,144
You don't think
I can draw some hands?
251
00:11:03,233 --> 00:11:04,746
No, I do not.
252
00:11:05,207 --> 00:11:06,803
Well, I'll bet what you didn't know
253
00:11:06,871 --> 00:11:09,785
is that this piece is
called Where My Keys At?
254
00:11:10,652 --> 00:11:13,746
You can't pass this class
if you can't draw hands.
255
00:11:13,965 --> 00:11:15,176
All right, new assignment.
256
00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:16,828
I want you back here tomorrow morning,
257
00:11:16,926 --> 00:11:19,363
with pencil drawings of four
different pairs of hands.
258
00:11:19,473 --> 00:11:22,027
Cool. Mm. If that's what you want, fine.
259
00:11:22,183 --> 00:11:23,293
Easy-peasy.
260
00:11:23,441 --> 00:11:25,162
No mittens,
no boxing gloves.
261
00:11:25,230 --> 00:11:26,762
Come on, man!
262
00:11:27,887 --> 00:11:31,074
Come on, look, I'm not
some 18-year-old freshman, dude.
263
00:11:31,152 --> 00:11:32,855
I don't need to know how to draw hands.
264
00:11:32,941 --> 00:11:36,012
Did you know, I have a certain
reputation as a street artist?
265
00:11:36,145 --> 00:11:38,183
Then why are you
bothering with this class?
266
00:11:38,324 --> 00:11:40,598
I'm starting to wonder
that my damn self.
267
00:11:40,965 --> 00:11:43,139
God, m-maybe
I don't belong in Art School.
268
00:11:43,207 --> 00:11:45,652
Maybe I should just go
back to where I came from.
269
00:11:53,218 --> 00:11:55,746
This is the part when you
tell me I have a lot of talent
270
00:11:55,871 --> 00:11:57,621
and I should stick with it.
271
00:12:01,293 --> 00:12:02,659
Fine.
272
00:12:03,129 --> 00:12:04,824
I'll give you the room.
273
00:12:16,591 --> 00:12:19,112
Thanks for helping me
find a five-star coffee.
274
00:12:19,285 --> 00:12:20,957
Now, just tell me what you think,
275
00:12:21,090 --> 00:12:23,105
and then you get back to
whatever you were doing.
276
00:12:23,246 --> 00:12:25,683
I'm supposed to be lifeguarding
at the Holiday Inn,
277
00:12:25,796 --> 00:12:27,496
but it's all good.
I threw in some pool
278
00:12:27,564 --> 00:12:29,183
noodles before I left.
279
00:12:30,402 --> 00:12:33,324
Okay, now, just say the first
thing that comes into your head.
280
00:12:33,426 --> 00:12:34,794
Don't hold back.
281
00:12:35,277 --> 00:12:36,425
Randy?
282
00:12:37,447 --> 00:12:38,863
Motor oil.
283
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,902
What? Oh...
284
00:12:41,214 --> 00:12:42,473
Sofia?
285
00:12:42,729 --> 00:12:44,449
Can we say "motor oil" again?
286
00:12:45,152 --> 00:12:47,402
Nobody say "motor oil."
287
00:12:47,558 --> 00:12:48,575
Tush.
288
00:12:48,682 --> 00:12:52,355
Wow, you really tied my hands with that
"no motor oil" thing.
289
00:12:52,949 --> 00:12:54,498
Ooh, lighter fluid.
290
00:12:54,566 --> 00:12:56,262
Oh, damn it!
291
00:12:57,168 --> 00:13:00,551
All right. Nobody leaves until
we find a great cup of coffee.
292
00:13:01,988 --> 00:13:04,303
By the way,
how did Franco weasel out of doing this?
293
00:13:04,371 --> 00:13:05,990
He had some painting
to do.
294
00:13:06,058 --> 00:13:08,105
Probably some project for school.
295
00:13:15,502 --> 00:13:17,098
All right.
296
00:13:24,324 --> 00:13:25,816
Uh-oh.
297
00:13:35,631 --> 00:13:37,453
Okay,
this next one is called
298
00:13:37,607 --> 00:13:39,566
Sumatran Mountain Reserve.
299
00:13:39,769 --> 00:13:42,308
Are you sure it's not called
Satan's Urine Sample?
300
00:13:46,573 --> 00:13:48,238
Oh, it's Franco.
301
00:13:48,423 --> 00:13:49,691
Hey.
302
00:13:49,980 --> 00:13:52,262
What? Where are you?
303
00:13:52,370 --> 00:13:55,191
Oh, hopefully not the deep
end of the Holiday Inn pool.
304
00:13:55,613 --> 00:13:58,002
Oh, my God.
Okay, okay, I'll-I'll be right there.
305
00:13:58,332 --> 00:14:00,316
He was tagging
a billboard on Ashland,
306
00:14:00,384 --> 00:14:01,391
and he got stuck up there.
307
00:14:01,458 --> 00:14:02,787
What?
He's tagging?
308
00:14:02,855 --> 00:14:03,959
We have to help him.
309
00:14:04,027 --> 00:14:05,933
Now?
It's so late.
310
00:14:06,001 --> 00:14:07,394
Do we all have to go?
311
00:14:07,483 --> 00:14:09,715
Yeah, I still have 12
coffees I want you to try.
312
00:14:09,786 --> 00:14:12,519
Come on, guys.
Franco needs our help.
313
00:14:20,590 --> 00:14:21,678
Finally.
314
00:14:21,746 --> 00:14:23,108
We got here as fast as we could.
315
00:14:23,176 --> 00:14:26,409
Tush, I saw you buy a hot dog
at the vendor across the street.
316
00:14:27,152 --> 00:14:28,771
Hey,
what the hell's wrong with you?
317
00:14:28,839 --> 00:14:30,452
- Man, you brought Arthur?
- Hey, come on.
318
00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:32,060
You promised me
you were done tagging.
319
00:14:32,128 --> 00:14:33,877
Now,
that's against the law, you know?
320
00:14:33,945 --> 00:14:35,505
Look, I don't need
a lecture right now.
321
00:14:35,637 --> 00:14:38,472
Okay? What I do need is
that ladder right there.
322
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,181
No, no, no.
323
00:14:40,316 --> 00:14:42,385
Not until you tell us
what's going on with you.
324
00:14:42,530 --> 00:14:45,300
Uh, my ladder fell,
and I'm not Spider-Man.
325
00:14:46,222 --> 00:14:47,599
Okay, have it your way.
326
00:14:47,667 --> 00:14:48,936
But it's gonna get
awfully cold up there.
327
00:14:49,003 --> 00:14:50,128
Let's go, guys.
328
00:14:50,202 --> 00:14:51,470
Okay! Okay.
329
00:14:51,566 --> 00:14:52,964
Okay.
330
00:14:54,411 --> 00:14:55,646
My professor's on to me.
331
00:14:55,714 --> 00:14:57,147
He knows I don't belong in Art School.
332
00:14:57,214 --> 00:14:58,266
He said that?
333
00:14:58,334 --> 00:14:59,369
Pretty much.
334
00:14:59,569 --> 00:15:01,271
He knows
I suck at drawing hands.
335
00:15:01,369 --> 00:15:03,277
Ha. I could've told him that.
336
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,970
So I decided to grab
my paints and go tagging.
337
00:15:07,456 --> 00:15:09,314
The one thing
I'm actually good at.
338
00:15:09,612 --> 00:15:12,105
Although clearly,
my ladder skills have slipped.
339
00:15:13,042 --> 00:15:14,499
All right,
so he doesn't love your work.
340
00:15:14,566 --> 00:15:15,576
Big deal.
341
00:15:15,644 --> 00:15:16,991
I got a Yelper out
there that's telling me
342
00:15:17,058 --> 00:15:18,353
I can't make coffee anymore.
343
00:15:18,421 --> 00:15:19,454
I'm not gonna give up.
344
00:15:19,522 --> 00:15:20,758
You know
what I'm gonna do instead?
345
00:15:20,825 --> 00:15:22,027
Force us to drink mud?
346
00:15:22,125 --> 00:15:23,323
No.
347
00:15:23,433 --> 00:15:25,802
I'm gonna let that criticism
light a fire under me.
348
00:15:25,854 --> 00:15:27,380
And then, eventually,
I'm gonna make
349
00:15:27,448 --> 00:15:29,566
the best damn coffee
in Chicago again.
350
00:15:29,634 --> 00:15:30,753
In fact,
351
00:15:30,821 --> 00:15:33,068
I'm grateful
to the Uptown Java Junkie.
352
00:15:33,136 --> 00:15:34,427
- Really?
- Yeah.
353
00:15:34,495 --> 00:15:36,107
I just wish
I knew who that guy was,
354
00:15:36,175 --> 00:15:38,839
so I could look him right in
the eye and say "thank you."
355
00:15:40,862 --> 00:15:41,877
It was us.
356
00:15:41,944 --> 00:15:43,542
You rat bastards.
357
00:15:45,281 --> 00:15:47,784
Wait, you guys wrote that review?
Why?
358
00:15:47,852 --> 00:15:50,068
'Cause we're in there every day,
drinking his swill,
359
00:15:50,136 --> 00:15:51,808
and it just keeps getting
worse.
360
00:15:51,876 --> 00:15:53,433
So why didn't you just
tell me?
361
00:15:53,563 --> 00:15:55,777
We did, a bunch of times.
362
00:15:55,886 --> 00:15:57,327
And you just ignored us.
363
00:15:57,395 --> 00:15:58,935
And in case you haven't noticed,
364
00:15:59,003 --> 00:16:01,331
you are not a big fan of criticism.
365
00:16:01,414 --> 00:16:03,644
Ah, bite me!
366
00:16:04,462 --> 00:16:05,696
Hey, guys?
367
00:16:05,935 --> 00:16:08,964
I-I'm not sure if I mentioned this,
but ladder!
368
00:16:09,123 --> 00:16:11,591
No, no, no. No.
Not until you promise me
369
00:16:11,659 --> 00:16:14,010
you'll go back to that
class and try again.
370
00:16:14,092 --> 00:16:15,560
I've been trying.
371
00:16:15,878 --> 00:16:18,050
I drew a thousand hands,
and they all suck.
372
00:16:18,118 --> 00:16:20,482
Well, then turn them in,
and let the professor show you
373
00:16:20,550 --> 00:16:21,916
how to draw them better.
374
00:16:21,984 --> 00:16:25,050
Now, isn't that what you went to
school for in the first place?
375
00:16:25,448 --> 00:16:26,689
Fine.
376
00:16:26,787 --> 00:16:28,378
Fine, fine. I'll do it.
377
00:16:28,472 --> 00:16:30,034
Okay.
378
00:16:33,597 --> 00:16:34,597
Hey.
379
00:16:34,665 --> 00:16:37,223
You guys didn't write that nasty
review about my truck, did you?
380
00:16:37,291 --> 00:16:38,612
Yeah, right.
381
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,230
If we had something to say
about your truck, you'd know it.
382
00:16:43,342 --> 00:16:45,909
Should we tell her it was us?
383
00:16:50,513 --> 00:16:52,902
Maybe we should wait
till we're on the ground.
384
00:17:02,154 --> 00:17:03,339
Go ahead.
385
00:17:03,456 --> 00:17:05,011
Hit me with your best shot.
386
00:17:05,198 --> 00:17:08,128
"These aren't hands, they're hams."
387
00:17:09,347 --> 00:17:12,320
"Did you draw this
during an earthquake?" Uh...
388
00:17:13,055 --> 00:17:17,125
Uh, "What did you use to draw these,
a Tragic Marker?"
389
00:17:18,466 --> 00:17:20,680
What grade do you need to
keep your financial aid?
390
00:17:20,820 --> 00:17:21,984
B-minus.
391
00:17:22,100 --> 00:17:23,170
Fine.
392
00:17:23,246 --> 00:17:24,313
B-minus.
393
00:17:24,380 --> 00:17:25,765
You finally did the assignment,
394
00:17:25,851 --> 00:17:28,045
and it's not half terrible.
395
00:17:29,324 --> 00:17:31,260
Thank you. Appreciate it.
396
00:17:31,538 --> 00:17:33,445
You don't seem very happy
about it.
397
00:17:33,601 --> 00:17:34,922
Professor Mills,
398
00:17:35,324 --> 00:17:37,284
for years I've been trying
to get into Art School.
399
00:17:37,639 --> 00:17:38,922
And here I am,
400
00:17:39,140 --> 00:17:42,165
with a charity B-minus and a
"not half terrible."
401
00:17:42,414 --> 00:17:44,494
So it's a little harder than
you thought it would be?
402
00:17:44,570 --> 00:17:45,901
Hell yeah.
403
00:17:46,516 --> 00:17:48,507
But I'm a street artist, man.
404
00:17:48,902 --> 00:17:51,328
But here,
there's all these rules
405
00:17:51,461 --> 00:17:54,242
a-and techniques and-and
theories.
406
00:17:54,777 --> 00:17:55,944
Yo, be real with me, man.
407
00:17:56,012 --> 00:17:57,414
Do I even belong here?
408
00:17:58,104 --> 00:18:01,469
Mr. Wicks,
have you ever heard of Burn 55?
409
00:18:01,789 --> 00:18:04,252
Have I heard...
yes, of course I've heard of Burn 55.
410
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,851
He's a graffiti legend, man.
411
00:18:11,683 --> 00:18:12,783
Cool.
412
00:18:12,851 --> 00:18:13,890
What, you a fan?
413
00:18:13,963 --> 00:18:15,219
Huge fan.
414
00:18:15,287 --> 00:18:17,805
Largely because I'm him.
415
00:18:19,922 --> 00:18:21,672
You're Burn 55?
416
00:18:21,904 --> 00:18:23,239
I was.
417
00:18:23,508 --> 00:18:26,961
Until I got tired of the city
always painting over my work.
418
00:18:28,577 --> 00:18:30,976
I wanted to do something
that would last.
419
00:18:31,250 --> 00:18:33,349
Maybe hang in a museum.
420
00:18:33,914 --> 00:18:35,260
But I could only make that happen
421
00:18:35,328 --> 00:18:37,656
if I moved out of my comfort zone.
422
00:18:38,406 --> 00:18:40,219
And that's when
I went to Art School.
423
00:18:40,633 --> 00:18:41,993
And is that
when you quit tagging?
424
00:18:42,191 --> 00:18:44,060
No, I quit
a couple of years later,
425
00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:46,354
when I had a kid,
and my wife said,
426
00:18:46,422 --> 00:18:48,277
"If you want to do something
in the middle of the night,
427
00:18:48,344 --> 00:18:49,799
watch this baby."
428
00:18:53,055 --> 00:18:55,078
So I do know
where you come from.
429
00:18:55,741 --> 00:18:57,213
Franco, you have talent.
430
00:18:57,469 --> 00:18:59,906
And if you're willing to
embrace what you don't know,
431
00:19:00,133 --> 00:19:05,390
and to fail along the way,
then yes, you belong here.
432
00:19:06,391 --> 00:19:07,436
All right.
433
00:19:07,773 --> 00:19:09,406
Let's get started.
434
00:19:09,552 --> 00:19:10,887
- Now?
- Yep.
435
00:19:11,001 --> 00:19:12,367
Cool.
436
00:19:13,456 --> 00:19:15,490
Now, when you're drawing fingers,
437
00:19:15,558 --> 00:19:18,789
just think of them as
stacks of cylinders.
438
00:19:20,249 --> 00:19:22,320
Hey, w-when you're done with that,
can I have it?
439
00:19:22,578 --> 00:19:24,820
You know my sketches go for
over a thousand dollars.
440
00:19:24,888 --> 00:19:27,234
Yeah, which is why
I'm-a ask you to sign it.
441
00:19:37,303 --> 00:19:38,455
Hey, Arthur.
442
00:19:38,649 --> 00:19:40,773
Any luck making
drinkable coffee?
443
00:19:40,841 --> 00:19:43,117
No, I've tried everything.
444
00:19:43,593 --> 00:19:46,015
Different beans, different filter,
different water,
445
00:19:46,101 --> 00:19:47,711
different religion.
446
00:19:48,819 --> 00:19:50,914
I lit a candle
at the Catholic church.
447
00:19:51,859 --> 00:19:53,148
A candle?
448
00:19:53,342 --> 00:19:55,640
Your coffee needs an exorcism.
449
00:19:56,089 --> 00:19:57,315
Wh-What's happened to me?
450
00:19:57,383 --> 00:19:58,542
My coffee used to be amazing.
451
00:19:58,609 --> 00:19:59,659
Yeah, I know.
It's just getting
452
00:19:59,726 --> 00:20:01,204
worse and worse lately.
453
00:20:01,687 --> 00:20:03,384
Maybe something's
wrong with the machine.
454
00:20:03,452 --> 00:20:05,890
No way. It's the same one
I've had for 13 years.
455
00:20:05,958 --> 00:20:07,133
This is top of the line.
456
00:20:07,201 --> 00:20:09,101
Automatic timer, self-cleaning.
457
00:20:09,227 --> 00:20:10,398
Self-cleaning?
458
00:20:10,726 --> 00:20:12,215
What are you talking about?
459
00:20:12,415 --> 00:20:15,711
Joanie used to clean that
once a week with vinegar.
460
00:20:17,486 --> 00:20:19,305
She did?
461
00:20:20,555 --> 00:20:24,561
So that machine hasn't been
cleaned since Joanie died?
462
00:20:24,629 --> 00:20:26,612
Oh, shh. Shh, shh, shh.
463
00:20:28,807 --> 00:20:31,095
No one needs to know this, right?
464
00:20:31,404 --> 00:20:32,993
Free donuts for the rest of the month.
465
00:20:33,185 --> 00:20:34,432
Donut holes.
466
00:20:34,537 --> 00:20:36,300
- Deal.
- Okay.
467
00:20:39,208 --> 00:20:40,753
You okay, Franco?
468
00:20:40,907 --> 00:20:42,174
Yeah.
469
00:20:42,698 --> 00:20:45,915
I had to draw another full
body sketch for class,
470
00:20:46,115 --> 00:20:48,878
and Sofia's at work, so...
471
00:20:54,031 --> 00:20:56,878
Turns out,
I'm not just bad at drawing hands.
472
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:00,565
No, it looks about right.
473
00:21:03,686 --> 00:21:07,307
♪♪
