1
00:00:16,183 --> 00:00:17,226
You said you wanted splashy.
2
00:00:17,393 --> 00:00:19,228
- Is this splashy enough?
- Well, it's a beginning.
3
00:00:19,353 --> 00:00:21,439
I'm CFO, Chief Fun Officer.
4
00:00:21,605 --> 00:00:23,649
And I'm art director,
which is an actual title.
5
00:00:23,774 --> 00:00:24,859
I have fans now.
6
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:26,777
Yeah, and they're
incredibly wealthy
7
00:00:26,944 --> 00:00:28,279
and they live in castles
8
00:00:28,446 --> 00:00:29,780
and hire me
to shoot their playthings.
9
00:00:29,905 --> 00:00:31,490
We could turn Minx
into so much more
10
00:00:31,657 --> 00:00:32,575
than just a magazine.
11
00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:34,452
Merchandising, uh, events,
12
00:00:34,618 --> 00:00:37,163
international editions,
taking this thing global.
13
00:00:37,329 --> 00:00:39,290
Something is going on with you.
14
00:00:39,457 --> 00:00:41,375
Whatever this is, I want
to figure it out with you.
15
00:00:43,294 --> 00:00:44,795
Please welcome Joyce Prigger.
16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:46,881
- Am I a celebrity?
- Sure, you're a celebrity.
17
00:00:47,047 --> 00:00:48,674
Doesn't it seem
like people are longing
18
00:00:48,841 --> 00:00:51,218
for a way to be more open
about sexuality
19
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:52,803
without feeling shame?
20
00:00:52,928 --> 00:00:55,181
God save the queen of dicks.
21
00:00:55,306 --> 00:00:56,849
And, you know,
I don't think it stops there.
22
00:00:56,974 --> 00:00:59,310
I-I think this feels like
the beginning of something.

00:01:11,155 --> 00:01:12,490

Sunset Boulevard.
You got 90,000 eyes a day.
29
00:01:31,008 --> 00:01:32,468
That is a wonderful idea, Doug.
30
00:01:32,593 --> 00:01:34,011
Truly inspired.
31
00:01:34,178 --> 00:01:35,554
Really?
'Cause yesterday you said
32
00:01:35,721 --> 00:01:38,808
that billboards were "a blight
on the public commons."
33
00:01:38,974 --> 00:01:40,142
Well, you know what,
I slept on it,
34
00:01:40,309 --> 00:01:41,560
and it's a winner.
35
00:01:45,773 --> 00:01:46,649
Yes, Bambi.
36
00:01:46,774 --> 00:01:48,192
Um, who are those people
37
00:01:48,317 --> 00:01:49,610
and why do they keep
taking our picture?
38
00:01:49,777 --> 00:01:51,570
That's Rolling Stone,
and they're here today
39
00:01:51,695 --> 00:01:53,030
doing a feature
on Bottom Dollar.
40
00:01:53,197 --> 00:01:55,074
You really need
to read my memos, Bambi.
41
00:01:55,241 --> 00:01:56,700
Oh, I don't read memos
on principle.
42
00:01:56,867 --> 00:01:58,077
But fun.
43
00:01:58,244 --> 00:01:59,161
Yes, it is.
44
00:01:59,286 --> 00:02:01,497
It's... so much fun.
45
00:02:01,664 --> 00:02:03,624
Big day today,
big shoot, big issue.
46
00:02:03,791 --> 00:02:05,209
Does anyone know
where Richie is?
47
00:02:05,376 --> 00:02:06,710
Art department's still waiting
on his approval,
48
00:02:06,877 --> 00:02:08,337
and I don't know
why he's not here.
49
00:02:08,504 --> 00:02:09,547
I'm here.
I'm here and I'm ready.
50
00:02:09,672 --> 00:02:12,216
Uh, more.
51
00:02:12,383 --> 00:02:13,717
Both. Also both.
52
00:02:13,884 --> 00:02:15,886
You know my budgets aren't
suggestions, right?
53
00:02:16,053 --> 00:02:17,304
Just how over are we?
54
00:02:17,471 --> 00:02:19,098
Twenty percent and counting.
55
00:02:19,265 --> 00:02:21,559
Eh, that's a rounding error
in my book.
56
00:02:21,684 --> 00:02:24,270
I think we need to support
this man's vision.
57
00:02:24,436 --> 00:02:25,396
You've earned it.
58
00:02:25,563 --> 00:02:27,606
Thank you, Connie.
59
00:02:27,731 --> 00:02:29,650
And in other news,
the, uh, comment cards
60
00:02:29,817 --> 00:02:33,362
for my new science magazine,
uh, Beyond,
61
00:02:33,529 --> 00:02:34,530
came out, and they're, uh...
62
00:02:36,532 --> 00:02:38,701
...they're very positive.
63
00:02:38,868 --> 00:02:40,369
Yeah, so I'll read 'em to you.
64
00:02:40,536 --> 00:02:42,329
Somebody said, "Original."
65
00:02:42,496 --> 00:02:43,914
"Mind-blowing."
66
00:02:44,039 --> 00:02:45,833
"The biggest development
in science
67
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,084
since the Punnett square."
68
00:02:47,251 --> 00:02:48,586
I wrote that one.
69
00:02:48,752 --> 00:02:50,588
And how are we looking
on the calendars?
70
00:02:50,754 --> 00:02:52,840
I think we've got
some really sexy options.
71
00:02:53,007 --> 00:02:55,092
Oh, Joycie,
I pulled off the lady quotes.
72
00:02:55,217 --> 00:02:58,554
So now it's just thick
and juicy slices of beefcake.
73
00:03:00,222 --> 00:03:01,682
Yum.
74
00:03:01,849 --> 00:03:03,642
♪ I got to get in a hurry ♪
75
00:03:06,937 --> 00:03:08,606
♪ I got to get in a hurry ♪
76
00:03:08,772 --> 00:03:10,566
What the hell was that?
77
00:03:10,733 --> 00:03:13,277
We've got
Rolling Stone posted up,
78
00:03:13,402 --> 00:03:16,405
and all of a sudden
you decide to respect me?
79
00:03:16,572 --> 00:03:18,198
Well, I-I don't--
I don't know what you mean.
80
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,952
Come on, Prigger, please.
81
00:03:22,119 --> 00:03:23,787
What are you doing?
82
00:03:23,954 --> 00:03:25,623
This is our thing.
83
00:03:25,789 --> 00:03:26,957
We fight, we bang heads,
84
00:03:27,124 --> 00:03:28,751
but then we come together
and we make magic.
85
00:03:28,918 --> 00:03:30,961
It is very Minx-y.
86
00:03:31,128 --> 00:03:32,630
When did that become
an adjective?
87
00:03:32,796 --> 00:03:34,173
I just don't understand
why you're trying
88
00:03:34,298 --> 00:03:35,799
to bore this reporter
out of a story.
89
00:03:35,966 --> 00:03:38,969
Do you have any idea
who Simon Michaels is?
90
00:03:39,136 --> 00:03:41,096
Y-you-you've brought death
to our door.
91
00:03:41,263 --> 00:03:44,058
Okay, this guy,
he writes searing exposés.
92
00:03:44,183 --> 00:03:45,392
He uncovers malfeasance.
93
00:03:45,559 --> 00:03:47,227
He topples despots.
94
00:03:47,394 --> 00:03:49,688
Last I checked, you are not
a third world dictator, Joyce.
95
00:03:49,813 --> 00:03:51,023
I think we'll be okay.
96
00:03:51,148 --> 00:03:52,691
Yeah, well, still,
one never knows
97
00:03:52,816 --> 00:03:54,568
what's going
to bring 'em down, you know?
98
00:03:54,735 --> 00:03:56,153
Have you read a word
about Nixon?
99
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,739
He's the president
of the United States.
100
00:03:58,906 --> 00:04:00,950
We publish a dick mag.
101
00:04:01,075 --> 00:04:02,242
Although right now,
102
00:04:02,409 --> 00:04:04,036
I don't know
who's more paranoid.
103
00:04:04,203 --> 00:04:06,330
In just six months,
sales are through the roof.
104
00:04:06,497 --> 00:04:08,582
Okay, writers beg
to contribute.
105
00:04:08,749 --> 00:04:11,001
We're on top.
I mean, come on, why risk that?
106
00:04:11,168 --> 00:04:14,713
Because, Joycie, if we get
on the cover of Rolling Stone,
107
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,675
it'll launch us
to outer fucking space.
108
00:04:17,841 --> 00:04:19,677
No--you mean launch Beyond.
109
00:04:19,802 --> 00:04:20,761
Okay? I'm not an idiot.
110
00:04:20,886 --> 00:04:22,680
I'm not risking Minx
111
00:04:22,846 --> 00:04:25,391
just so you can give
your pet project a boost.
112
00:04:25,557 --> 00:04:26,850
So this is about jealousy?
113
00:04:27,017 --> 00:04:29,228
Oh, my God, no.
I'm very... I'm very happy
114
00:04:29,353 --> 00:04:30,771
for you and your new
celebrity friend--
115
00:04:30,938 --> 00:04:32,064
My editor, Joyce,
116
00:04:32,231 --> 00:04:33,524
Carl Sagan.
117
00:04:33,691 --> 00:04:35,442
Yeah, that kind of press
is a distraction.
118
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,861
And what was that hatchet job
you did on my calendar?
119
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:39,488
There it is.
So you were pissed.
120
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:41,115
Doug, I spent hours curating
121
00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:43,200
this-this treasure trove
of feminist witticisms.
122
00:04:43,325 --> 00:04:45,035
It pulled focus
from the schlongs.
123
00:04:45,202 --> 00:04:47,037
Schlongs without context
are just schlongs, okay?
124
00:04:47,204 --> 00:04:48,539
It's the quotes
that make them Minx-y.
125
00:04:48,706 --> 00:04:49,832
God damn it.
126
00:04:49,999 --> 00:04:52,001
There it is, kid!
There's the pepper!
127
00:04:52,126 --> 00:04:53,669
Where was that in the meeting?
128
00:04:55,254 --> 00:04:56,046
- Okay.
- We gotta go.
129
00:04:56,213 --> 00:04:57,840
Hey, and remember
Grandma's picking you up
130
00:04:58,007 --> 00:04:59,717
after school
for the sleepover today, okay?
131
00:04:59,883 --> 00:05:01,719
And if she pops
that second jug of wine,
132
00:05:01,885 --> 00:05:03,137
I want you to call.
133
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:05,347
Well, Tommy has
a standing order
134
00:05:05,514 --> 00:05:06,890
to water down the Carlo Rossi
after 9:00.
135
00:05:07,057 --> 00:05:08,642
Oh, and don't worry
about going to the store.
136
00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:10,561
- I have time today.
- No way.
137
00:05:10,728 --> 00:05:12,563
You got enough
on your plate as hostess.
138
00:05:12,730 --> 00:05:13,689
And besides, I want
to make sure that you have
139
00:05:13,856 --> 00:05:15,482
plenty of energy for later.
140
00:05:15,649 --> 00:05:16,859
Oh, excuse me.
141
00:05:17,026 --> 00:05:18,610
Mm-hmm.
142
00:05:20,654 --> 00:05:22,239
Mm.
143
00:05:22,364 --> 00:05:24,241
I have a test first period.
144
00:05:24,408 --> 00:05:26,201
Okay.
All right, get out of here.
145
00:05:26,368 --> 00:05:28,037
All right.
146
00:05:28,203 --> 00:05:30,414
Well, well,
good morning, lovebirds.
147
00:05:32,166 --> 00:05:34,710
Hey, Harold and I were
wondering if you had
148
00:05:34,877 --> 00:05:37,671
a couple spots open at your
table for dinner tonight.
149
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:39,631
You guys throw
the best parties.
150
00:05:39,798 --> 00:05:41,091
Right, Harold?
151
00:05:41,258 --> 00:05:42,926
Driving the bus today, Lenny?
152
00:05:43,093 --> 00:05:44,803
Must be in the doghouse.
153
00:05:44,970 --> 00:05:46,013
Nope, just, uh,
154
00:05:46,180 --> 00:05:47,431
enjoy spending time
with my children.
155
00:05:49,016 --> 00:05:50,476
I'm so sorry--
even with the leaf,
156
00:05:50,642 --> 00:05:51,643
we can only fit eight.
157
00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:53,103
Maybe next time?
158
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:54,146
Okay.
159
00:05:57,274 --> 00:05:58,776
You had one line, Harold.
160
00:05:58,942 --> 00:05:59,985
One.
161
00:06:00,944 --> 00:06:02,279
♪ Talk about your yo-yo ♪
162
00:06:02,446 --> 00:06:03,781
And this is where Richie sits.
163
00:06:03,947 --> 00:06:04,948
He used to be in the studio,
164
00:06:05,115 --> 00:06:06,617
but then
Life magazine called him
165
00:06:06,742 --> 00:06:08,869
"America's Picasso
of the Pecker."
166
00:06:09,036 --> 00:06:11,789
So, I gave him a work station
and two assistants.
167
00:06:11,955 --> 00:06:13,457
And over here is Tina.
168
00:06:13,624 --> 00:06:15,292
She got to choose
her own carpet.
169
00:06:15,417 --> 00:06:17,336
She went with the short pile
'cause she's classy.
170
00:06:17,503 --> 00:06:19,129
Is that you right there?
171
00:06:19,296 --> 00:06:20,297
Yeah.
172
00:06:20,464 --> 00:06:22,549
That was
from before my CFO days.
173
00:06:22,716 --> 00:06:23,801
You went from nude model
174
00:06:23,967 --> 00:06:25,052
to Chief Financial Officer?
175
00:06:25,219 --> 00:06:26,720
Chief Fun Officer.
176
00:06:26,887 --> 00:06:28,514
Yours sounds made-up.
177
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:30,265
Also, I'm still
centerfold coordinating,
178
00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:31,850
which is a real job.
179
00:06:31,975 --> 00:06:33,977
But I'm looking
for my next gig here.
180
00:06:34,144 --> 00:06:36,146
Just waiting
for the stars to align.
181
00:06:36,313 --> 00:06:37,981
Speaking of stars,
182
00:06:38,148 --> 00:06:39,399
who do we have here?
183
00:06:39,566 --> 00:06:41,693
Astrologer, cosmetologist,
184
00:06:41,860 --> 00:06:44,863
and Beyond magazine's
editor emeritus,
185
00:06:44,988 --> 00:06:46,782
Mr. Carl Sagan.
186
00:06:46,949 --> 00:06:47,908
Hello.
187
00:06:48,033 --> 00:06:49,368
I'm almost none
of those things.
188
00:06:49,535 --> 00:06:50,744
Okay, bye, guys.
189
00:06:50,869 --> 00:06:52,454
Bye, Annie.
190
00:06:52,621 --> 00:06:54,123
Do you know where I could
find Joyce Prigger?
191
00:07:04,466 --> 00:07:05,509
You one of those people
who can only write
192
00:07:05,676 --> 00:07:06,969
in the midst of chaos?
193
00:07:09,429 --> 00:07:10,472
Here you go.
194
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:11,640
This should have
everything you need.
195
00:07:14,184 --> 00:07:16,061
Yeah, I-I think
I missed something.
196
00:07:16,186 --> 00:07:18,105
Oh, I wrote out
my answers in advance.
197
00:07:18,272 --> 00:07:19,523
Right, but I didn't
submit any questions.
198
00:07:19,690 --> 00:07:20,983
I've done dozens of interviews,
199
00:07:21,150 --> 00:07:23,527
and 95% of the questions
are exactly the same.
200
00:07:26,738 --> 00:07:28,574
Um, I'm so sorry.
What was your name again?
201
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:30,200
Annie Leibovitz.
202
00:07:30,367 --> 00:07:31,869
Right, okay, um, Ms. Leibovitz,
203
00:07:32,035 --> 00:07:33,203
could you please not
take my picture?
204
00:07:33,370 --> 00:07:35,038
It's her job.
205
00:07:35,205 --> 00:07:36,165
Well, I'm trying to do mine.
206
00:07:36,331 --> 00:07:39,042
And you have caught me
on a very busy day.
207
00:07:39,209 --> 00:07:40,711
-"Where do you get your ideas?"
- Mm-hmm.
208
00:07:40,878 --> 00:07:42,671
"How do you find your models?
209
00:07:42,838 --> 00:07:44,464
What does your boyfriend think
about your job?"
210
00:07:44,631 --> 00:07:46,925
On that last one,
I push back firmly but gently.
211
00:07:47,050 --> 00:07:49,052
I would never ask
that question.
212
00:07:49,178 --> 00:07:50,387
Well, you'd be the first.
213
00:07:50,554 --> 00:07:51,972
Then why don't you let me be?
214
00:07:52,139 --> 00:07:54,266
Talk to me about your book.
That's a big advance.
215
00:07:54,391 --> 00:07:55,434
Wh-what are you spending it on?
216
00:07:55,601 --> 00:07:57,311
Uh, T-bills and a new condo.
217
00:07:57,477 --> 00:07:59,730
Page three, halfway down.
218
00:07:59,897 --> 00:08:00,898
And if you'll excuse me,
219
00:08:01,064 --> 00:08:02,232
it looks like I'm needed
in a meeting.
220
00:08:03,734 --> 00:08:04,526
I'm getting a bounce.
221
00:08:04,693 --> 00:08:05,903
That's dead skin.
222
00:08:06,904 --> 00:08:08,071
Son of a bitch.
223
00:08:08,238 --> 00:08:09,364
Pumice.
224
00:08:12,576 --> 00:08:14,578
Hey, Turtleneck, pumice stone.
225
00:08:17,706 --> 00:08:18,749
Technically not a stone.
226
00:08:18,916 --> 00:08:20,918
It's a mineral slurry.
227
00:08:21,084 --> 00:08:23,045
There's my handsome genius.
228
00:08:23,212 --> 00:08:24,213
Hey, you want
something to drink?
229
00:08:24,379 --> 00:08:25,422
A Fanta? You wanna get high?
230
00:08:25,589 --> 00:08:27,132
Richie's got some great grass.
231
00:08:27,299 --> 00:08:28,926
Forty-five minute drive
to Syracuse,
232
00:08:29,092 --> 00:08:31,220
two connecting flights
in coach,
233
00:08:31,386 --> 00:08:32,804
all for an interview that
doesn't seem to be happening.
234
00:08:32,930 --> 00:08:34,681
Oh, it's happening.
It is happening.
235
00:08:34,848 --> 00:08:36,516
Believe me, believe me.
When I told this reporter
236
00:08:36,683 --> 00:08:37,935
you were here,
he flipped his lid.
237
00:08:38,101 --> 00:08:39,269
Betrayed none
of that excitement
238
00:08:39,436 --> 00:08:40,395
- in our brief encounter.
- Oh, he's just nervous.
239
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,439
He is beyond excited.
240
00:08:42,606 --> 00:08:44,524
Beyond.
241
00:08:44,650 --> 00:08:46,276
Okay. I would like to get high.
242
00:08:46,443 --> 00:08:47,444
Okay, good.
243
00:08:54,618 --> 00:08:57,162
Why are there
so many tumbleweeds?
244
00:08:57,329 --> 00:08:59,164
I asked you earlier.
You said more.
245
00:08:59,331 --> 00:09:00,624
I meant metaphorically.
246
00:09:00,791 --> 00:09:03,335
This is supposed to be
a lone tumbleweed.
247
00:09:03,502 --> 00:09:06,171
Well, you're not gonna
like that.
248
00:09:06,296 --> 00:09:07,297
- Oh, my God.
- Babes...
249
00:09:07,464 --> 00:09:09,841
Wait, wait.
Can someone kill the fan?
250
00:09:10,008 --> 00:09:11,551
- What?
- The models are upset.
251
00:09:11,677 --> 00:09:13,679
Good. The concept is
Dudes in Distress.
252
00:09:13,845 --> 00:09:15,389
No, they're model upset.
253
00:09:16,932 --> 00:09:19,101
The only way I can transform
into character
254
00:09:19,268 --> 00:09:21,061
is to know who tied me up.
255
00:09:21,228 --> 00:09:22,229
What's my moment before?
256
00:09:22,396 --> 00:09:23,522
Plus, my cock's
gonna look smaller
257
00:09:23,689 --> 00:09:24,856
if I'm further away.
258
00:09:25,023 --> 00:09:26,525
Even though
we all know it's not.
259
00:09:26,692 --> 00:09:28,819
Okay, everyone take five.
260
00:09:28,986 --> 00:09:31,071
And can someone give the talent
some umbrellas, please?
261
00:09:31,196 --> 00:09:32,656
Robert, Charlie.
262
00:09:34,950 --> 00:09:36,994
I hear we're having
model drama.
263
00:09:37,119 --> 00:09:39,538
Brando over here
is requesting special makeup.
264
00:09:39,705 --> 00:09:42,374
He's convinced his character
would be uncircumcised.
265
00:09:42,499 --> 00:09:44,501
Well, he's not wrong
from a historical perspective.
266
00:09:44,668 --> 00:09:46,670
But, uh, that's not
the problem here, right?
267
00:09:46,795 --> 00:09:47,921
The setup is not working.
268
00:09:48,088 --> 00:09:49,464
I know. Something's missing.
269
00:09:49,631 --> 00:09:51,383
- I just don't know what it is.
- It's not tumbleweeds.
270
00:09:51,508 --> 00:09:53,051
Okay, I thought
the "lone" was implied.
271
00:09:53,218 --> 00:09:55,178
Right, yes.
272
00:09:57,472 --> 00:09:58,932
How about this?
273
00:09:59,099 --> 00:10:00,642
You move on
to your secondary setups,
274
00:10:00,809 --> 00:10:02,144
and then by the time
we're ready for our centerfold,
275
00:10:02,311 --> 00:10:04,688
I will have a fix.
276
00:10:04,813 --> 00:10:05,689
Okay.
277
00:10:07,357 --> 00:10:09,818
You know, I'm not one
to comment on creative,
278
00:10:09,985 --> 00:10:11,903
but this all seems a bit--
279
00:10:12,070 --> 00:10:13,155
Off. Yes, I know.
280
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:14,531
- We're handling it.
- Yeah.
281
00:10:14,698 --> 00:10:16,992
I just don't want
to lose sight of our audience.
282
00:10:17,117 --> 00:10:20,370
I mean, Minx is a very
successful women's magazine.
283
00:10:20,537 --> 00:10:22,664
And this, two men together,
284
00:10:22,831 --> 00:10:25,042
I feel like this puts
a target on our back.
285
00:10:25,208 --> 00:10:26,585
A target?
286
00:10:26,752 --> 00:10:28,462
Well, there's
a whisper campaign
287
00:10:28,587 --> 00:10:31,631
that a good number
of our readers are homosexuals.
288
00:10:31,798 --> 00:10:33,300
Oh. Right, yeah.
289
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:35,635
But, I don't know,
isn't it better if our work
290
00:10:35,802 --> 00:10:37,804
is interesting to all kinds
of different people?
291
00:10:37,971 --> 00:10:40,849
I mean, in an ideal world,
but we have advertisers
292
00:10:41,016 --> 00:10:44,061
that are paying specifically
to reach women.
293
00:10:44,227 --> 00:10:46,480
Let's not give them a reason
to question that.
294
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:48,106
I will take care of it.
295
00:10:48,273 --> 00:10:49,441
I have complete confidence
in you.
296
00:10:51,610 --> 00:10:53,403
Doug wanted me to tell you
he solved the problem
297
00:10:53,570 --> 00:10:54,738
with the glow-in-the-dark mugs.
298
00:10:54,905 --> 00:10:56,782
He doesn't need you.
299
00:10:56,948 --> 00:10:57,908
The what?
300
00:10:59,034 --> 00:11:01,078
Why am I just hearing about
glow-in-the-dark mugs now?
301
00:11:01,203 --> 00:11:02,579
And who drinks coffee
in the dark?
302
00:11:02,746 --> 00:11:03,955
No one,
because it doesn't work.
303
00:11:04,122 --> 00:11:05,248
Consider it dead.
Here, go ahead with your day.
304
00:11:05,415 --> 00:11:06,249
- What?
- No, no, you're having a really
305
00:11:06,416 --> 00:11:07,584
- busy day.
- What are you doing?
306
00:11:07,751 --> 00:11:08,585
- You just go do your thing.
- Is that Carl Sa--
307
00:11:08,752 --> 00:11:10,087
- No, no, no, no.
- Doug!
308
00:11:10,253 --> 00:11:11,630
Simon, can I talk
to you for a second?
309
00:11:11,797 --> 00:11:13,590
Come on in.
Carl, hit the lights, please.
310
00:11:13,715 --> 00:11:15,133
- I should probably--
- I agree.
311
00:11:15,258 --> 00:11:16,593
Black holes,
312
00:11:16,718 --> 00:11:19,471
infinitely dense,
313
00:11:19,596 --> 00:11:22,516
but exponentially fascinating.
314
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:24,267
Oh, sweet Jesus.
315
00:11:26,603 --> 00:11:28,271
- Where's Simon?
- He's in there with Doug.
316
00:11:28,438 --> 00:11:29,940
I just got used
as reporter bait.
317
00:11:30,107 --> 00:11:31,108
You need to talk to him.
318
00:11:31,274 --> 00:11:32,567
Oh, God, you too?
319
00:11:32,734 --> 00:11:34,152
I have enough on my plate
without Jann Wenner
320
00:11:34,319 --> 00:11:35,612
calling me complaining.
321
00:11:35,779 --> 00:11:36,863
We agreed
to let Rolling Stone do
322
00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:38,615
a feature about Bottom Dollar.
323
00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:40,617
You've got to give them
an angle.
324
00:11:40,784 --> 00:11:43,078
The point of view of the woman
at the center of it all.
325
00:11:44,413 --> 00:11:46,123
You're right.
326
00:11:46,289 --> 00:11:48,417
Point of view is everything.
327
00:11:48,583 --> 00:11:49,543
Yeah, right, okay.
328
00:11:49,709 --> 00:11:51,169
Um, I'll talk to Simon,
329
00:11:51,336 --> 00:11:54,005
but in return,
I'm gonna need some horses.
330
00:11:54,172 --> 00:11:55,382
How many horses?
331
00:11:55,549 --> 00:11:56,550
- Four.
- One.
332
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:58,009
- Three?
- One.
333
00:11:58,176 --> 00:11:59,970
Fine, one, but no Clydesdales.
334
00:12:00,137 --> 00:12:01,847
They're too cloppy.
335
00:12:02,013 --> 00:12:03,014
I was gonna give you two.
336
00:12:03,181 --> 00:12:04,266
- Is it too late to--
- Yes.
337
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:08,478
Hello.
338
00:12:11,148 --> 00:12:13,692
Richie.
339
00:12:13,859 --> 00:12:15,444
You need to take better care
of yourself.
340
00:12:15,610 --> 00:12:16,570
Here.
341
00:12:16,736 --> 00:12:18,238
OJ and speed.
342
00:12:20,449 --> 00:12:21,658
I had an interesting chat
343
00:12:21,825 --> 00:12:24,202
with one of our cowboys earlier.
344
00:12:24,327 --> 00:12:25,203
Which one?
345
00:12:25,370 --> 00:12:27,497
The one you slept with.
346
00:12:27,622 --> 00:12:28,540
More specific?
347
00:12:28,707 --> 00:12:30,125
Richie.
348
00:12:30,292 --> 00:12:32,377
At the same time?
349
00:12:32,502 --> 00:12:34,171
When all the doors
finally open up for you,
350
00:12:34,337 --> 00:12:35,505
it's kind of hard
not to go through them.
351
00:12:35,672 --> 00:12:36,673
Been there.
352
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,883
When Elvis pulled me
353
00:12:38,049 --> 00:12:39,301
out of that audience
in seventh grade,
354
00:12:39,426 --> 00:12:41,344
it was the start
of a fun few years.
355
00:12:41,470 --> 00:12:43,889
Then I cleaned up my act,
and look at him now.
356
00:12:44,014 --> 00:12:45,765
Slurring his words
in a sequined cape
357
00:12:45,932 --> 00:12:47,350
on a sad Vegas stage.
358
00:12:47,517 --> 00:12:48,518
I don't want that for you.
359
00:12:48,685 --> 00:12:50,437
I know.
360
00:12:50,604 --> 00:12:52,230
But we get invited
361
00:12:52,397 --> 00:12:54,816
to all these amazing events
every single night,
362
00:12:54,983 --> 00:12:57,736
and I can't believe
I get to be a part of it.
363
00:12:57,861 --> 00:12:59,196
Linda Ronstadt is having
364
00:12:59,362 --> 00:13:01,072
a private
listening party tonight.
365
00:13:01,198 --> 00:13:02,532
How can I skip that?
366
00:13:02,699 --> 00:13:05,202
Linda's having a moment,
and so are you.
367
00:13:05,368 --> 00:13:07,579
But Linda is still
putting out music,
368
00:13:07,704 --> 00:13:10,373
and you can't get your butt
through one photo shoot.
369
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:12,751
You know you need to lay low
every once in a while.
370
00:13:12,876 --> 00:13:14,085
Rein it in, buddy.
371
00:13:18,882 --> 00:13:20,759
I had nothing to do with that.
372
00:13:42,197 --> 00:13:43,114
That's right.
373
00:13:43,281 --> 00:13:44,074
And when you look at them,
374
00:13:44,241 --> 00:13:45,617
more powerful, please.
375
00:13:45,784 --> 00:13:46,785
More anguish.
376
00:13:52,791 --> 00:13:54,709
You squared the circle.
377
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:56,086
Well done.
378
00:14:04,469 --> 00:14:06,096
It was missing a point of view.
379
00:14:06,263 --> 00:14:08,265
Needed a way in
for the audience.
380
00:14:09,724 --> 00:14:10,725
She speaks.
381
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:11,893
Please, don't stop.
382
00:14:12,060 --> 00:14:13,853
Maybe she's there
to rescue them.
383
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:16,606
Maybe she's there
to torment them.
384
00:14:16,773 --> 00:14:19,109
All we know is that
she has the power.
385
00:14:19,276 --> 00:14:21,319
What'd you have to do to get
a horse here in 30 minutes?
386
00:14:21,486 --> 00:14:23,321
Talk to you.
387
00:14:24,072 --> 00:14:25,407
Uh-huh.
388
00:14:25,574 --> 00:14:26,575
- All right.
- Not what I thought of
389
00:14:26,741 --> 00:14:28,285
when you said supply closet.
390
00:14:28,451 --> 00:14:30,453
Work here long enough, this
becomes Wite-Out and staplers.
391
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:31,788
You know, you've been doing
392
00:14:31,955 --> 00:14:33,623
an inelegant job
of avoiding me.
393
00:14:33,748 --> 00:14:34,958
I wasn't trying to hide it.
394
00:14:35,125 --> 00:14:36,209
I'd think you'd be
a little less squeamish
395
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:37,627
for all the press you've done.
396
00:14:37,794 --> 00:14:39,170
Those were puff pieces, okay?
397
00:14:39,337 --> 00:14:41,506
We both know
that a shrewd journalist,
398
00:14:41,673 --> 00:14:44,342
someone who, I don't know,
say, interviewed Idi Amin,
399
00:14:44,467 --> 00:14:46,928
can take any little detail
about a powerful woman,
400
00:14:47,095 --> 00:14:48,805
and then use it against her.
401
00:14:48,972 --> 00:14:51,141
Okay, you know,
I-I raise my voice,
402
00:14:51,308 --> 00:14:52,976
"Abusive Bitch Claws Her Way
to the Top."
403
00:14:53,143 --> 00:14:55,186
I wear my heels too high,
404
00:14:55,353 --> 00:14:57,105
"Conniving Slut Sleeps Her Way
to the Middle."
405
00:14:57,272 --> 00:14:58,356
Look, I get it.
406
00:14:58,523 --> 00:14:59,816
We all want
to control the narrative.
407
00:14:59,941 --> 00:15:01,693
But you're leaving me
to fill in the blanks.
408
00:15:01,818 --> 00:15:04,112
Mm-hmm, and what is it
that you think you see?
409
00:15:04,279 --> 00:15:05,655
- Honestly?
- Mm-hmm.
410
00:15:05,822 --> 00:15:07,282
A woman gripping
the wheel so tight
411
00:15:07,449 --> 00:15:08,742
her fingers are about
to snap off.
412
00:15:10,118 --> 00:15:11,494
So what,
413
00:15:11,661 --> 00:15:13,830
"Skittish Control Freak Refuses
to Have Fun"?
414
00:15:13,997 --> 00:15:15,999
Nah, Joyce, listen.
I-I didn't come here
415
00:15:16,166 --> 00:15:18,251
to write about Bottom Dollar
or Minx.
416
00:15:18,376 --> 00:15:19,919
I came here to write about you.
417
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:21,713
Because I think we're in
the middle of a revolution,
418
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,173
and I thought you were
at the center of it.
419
00:15:23,340 --> 00:15:25,634
But you're just watching
from the sidelines.
420
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,052
Okay, come on.
We're journalists.
421
00:15:27,177 --> 00:15:28,511
Observing is our job.
422
00:15:28,678 --> 00:15:30,013
Yeah, and sometimes
we can chase a story
423
00:15:30,180 --> 00:15:31,640
only to realize
there's nothing there.
424
00:15:34,643 --> 00:15:36,186
Uh, I...
425
00:15:36,353 --> 00:15:37,687
okay.
426
00:15:40,357 --> 00:15:41,691
I'm so glad you finally
427
00:15:41,858 --> 00:15:43,068
sat down
with our friend, Simon.
428
00:15:43,193 --> 00:15:45,195
I'm sure it went swimmingly.
429
00:15:45,362 --> 00:15:47,197
Yes, very, very well.
430
00:15:47,364 --> 00:15:49,074
Well, I know you were hesitant
to do the interview,
431
00:15:49,199 --> 00:15:51,284
but you did it
because you understand
432
00:15:51,451 --> 00:15:53,870
the value of visibility.
433
00:15:54,037 --> 00:15:56,164
I was always more comfortable
in the shadows.
434
00:15:56,331 --> 00:15:57,749
It's safer there.
435
00:15:57,874 --> 00:16:00,377
Well, the world does love
to watch a strong woman fall.
436
00:16:00,543 --> 00:16:04,047
Which is why it's so important
that they watch you succeed.
437
00:16:04,214 --> 00:16:05,340
Mm?
438
00:16:05,465 --> 00:16:07,217
I'm proud of you
for taking that risk.
439
00:16:07,384 --> 00:16:08,885
I can't wait to read it.
440
00:16:16,351 --> 00:16:17,644
Hey.
441
00:16:17,769 --> 00:16:19,604
I just had
an interesting conversation
442
00:16:19,771 --> 00:16:21,064
with one
of our Rolling Stone friends.
443
00:16:21,189 --> 00:16:22,607
Which one?
444
00:16:22,774 --> 00:16:24,943
The one you were rude to.
445
00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:26,069
More specific.
446
00:16:26,194 --> 00:16:27,445
Joyce.
447
00:16:27,612 --> 00:16:28,571
At the same time?
448
00:16:28,738 --> 00:16:29,781
What?
449
00:16:29,948 --> 00:16:32,367
No, it--I...
450
00:16:32,534 --> 00:16:34,661
look, when the world
is knocking at your door,
451
00:16:34,786 --> 00:16:37,747
it's very hard not to put up
a wall... with spikes.
452
00:16:37,914 --> 00:16:40,083
Okay, listen, I get it.
453
00:16:40,250 --> 00:16:42,502
Okay? You're having a moment.
454
00:16:42,669 --> 00:16:43,920
But there's more to this job
455
00:16:44,045 --> 00:16:45,797
than just putting out
a magazine.
456
00:16:45,964 --> 00:16:48,133
You're like the front woman
of a band,
457
00:16:48,258 --> 00:16:49,968
if bands had front women.
458
00:16:50,093 --> 00:16:51,219
You need to take
459
00:16:51,386 --> 00:16:52,470
a night every once in a while
460
00:16:52,595 --> 00:16:54,806
and just have
a little fun, okay?
461
00:16:54,973 --> 00:16:56,141
I know you're that person too.
462
00:16:56,307 --> 00:16:58,518
Am I, though? Am I fun?
463
00:16:58,685 --> 00:17:00,770
For a successful person
with a big job,
464
00:17:00,937 --> 00:17:03,022
I'd say that you're...
pretty fun.
465
00:17:05,066 --> 00:17:07,193
You know, we do get invited
to a lot of cool stuff.
466
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:09,946
Now's your chance to show Simon
that you're not just spikes.
467
00:17:10,113 --> 00:17:12,031
It was touch and go
at the start,
468
00:17:12,198 --> 00:17:14,659
a-and then ol' Carl,
he really turned on the charm.
469
00:17:14,826 --> 00:17:17,662
Tins, by the end, it was like
Simon was almost in tears.
470
00:17:17,787 --> 00:17:19,664
A hostage situation
with a happy ending.
471
00:17:19,831 --> 00:17:21,291
Yeah, but that's
not even the best part.
472
00:17:21,458 --> 00:17:23,376
Carl was so happy
that he called his buddies
473
00:17:23,543 --> 00:17:26,379
over at NASA, a-and guess what?
474
00:17:26,546 --> 00:17:27,630
Beyond is going to be
475
00:17:27,797 --> 00:17:30,717
the official magazine
of Skylab.
476
00:17:30,884 --> 00:17:33,636
Look at you publishing
the first magazine in space.
477
00:17:33,803 --> 00:17:34,888
I'm gonna go
to Houston tomorrow,
478
00:17:35,054 --> 00:17:36,014
and I'm gonna seal the deal,
479
00:17:36,181 --> 00:17:37,182
and I want you to come with me.
480
00:17:37,348 --> 00:17:38,558
I want to turn it into
481
00:17:38,725 --> 00:17:40,685
a Doug and Tina
romantic weekend.
482
00:17:40,852 --> 00:17:42,562
Houston in July? Sounds sweaty.
483
00:17:42,687 --> 00:17:44,147
Think of this.
484
00:17:44,314 --> 00:17:47,942
The air-conditioned suite.
The pool.
485
00:17:48,109 --> 00:17:49,319
And if you play
your cards right,
486
00:17:49,486 --> 00:17:52,197
I'll take you on a day trip
to Galveston.
487
00:17:52,363 --> 00:17:53,531
All right, I'll come...
488
00:17:53,698 --> 00:17:55,325
if you finish
the Minx calendars.
489
00:17:55,492 --> 00:17:58,077
Bottom Dollar is going
interstellar, Tins.
490
00:17:58,244 --> 00:17:59,579
The calendars can wait.
491
00:17:59,746 --> 00:18:01,539
They're literally the most
time-sensitive product.
492
00:18:01,706 --> 00:18:03,750
You are killing me
with these calendars.
493
00:18:03,917 --> 00:18:06,753
I don't care about the merch.
I care about the magazines.
494
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,963
And I know they call me
Mug Renetti behind my back
495
00:18:09,130 --> 00:18:10,840
like I'm some sort
of flea market peddler.
496
00:18:11,007 --> 00:18:12,926
It hurts my feelings.
497
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:15,178
We all have parts of our jobs
we don't like.
498
00:18:15,345 --> 00:18:16,596
- Yeah.
- Like reminding you
499
00:18:16,721 --> 00:18:18,348
to do your work,
500
00:18:18,515 --> 00:18:20,058
which is the job
of a secretary,
501
00:18:20,225 --> 00:18:21,476
if you kept one
for longer than a week.
502
00:18:21,643 --> 00:18:23,686
I would if one of 'em was
half as good as you,
503
00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:25,188
believe me,
but I can't find a good one.
504
00:18:25,355 --> 00:18:27,148
Hey, um, Doug, quick question.
505
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:28,858
I hope it's not
about merchandise.
506
00:18:29,025 --> 00:18:30,693
Um, it's about the fires
in the parking lot.
507
00:18:30,819 --> 00:18:33,404
- What?
- Yeah, loose hay, smokers.
508
00:18:33,571 --> 00:18:35,323
Do you make a Minx ashtray?
509
00:18:37,492 --> 00:18:39,077
Glass or ceramic?
510
00:18:48,086 --> 00:18:49,546
We're all friends here.
511
00:18:49,712 --> 00:18:52,674
Some might say
the closest of friends.
512
00:18:52,841 --> 00:18:55,218
So I have to ask,
513
00:18:55,343 --> 00:18:59,639
which one of you had sex
with my husband in our house?
514
00:19:03,768 --> 00:19:05,103
No, I mean last month.
515
00:19:06,813 --> 00:19:08,982
Mm-hmm. Okay.
516
00:19:09,107 --> 00:19:11,359
What did we say about
loose-fitting jewelry, hmm?
517
00:19:11,526 --> 00:19:14,487
Come on, guys,
French clasps and studs only.
518
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:16,739
We still have a toddler who
will put anything in her mouth.
519
00:19:16,906 --> 00:19:17,949
Sounds like Henrietta.
520
00:19:21,244 --> 00:19:22,537
Sorry, Shelly.
521
00:19:22,704 --> 00:19:24,080
Oh, I mean Mistress Bella.
522
00:19:24,247 --> 00:19:25,999
I'll forgive it this time.
523
00:19:29,878 --> 00:19:33,756
Tonight, Bella LaRouche has
chosen a theme.
524
00:19:33,882 --> 00:19:36,092
Sadie Hawkins.
525
00:19:36,259 --> 00:19:39,429
Ladies choose their partners.
526
00:19:43,641 --> 00:19:45,059
Eeny...
527
00:19:45,226 --> 00:19:47,562
meeny...
528
00:19:47,729 --> 00:19:49,439
miny...
529
00:19:49,606 --> 00:19:52,275
miny...
530
00:19:52,442 --> 00:19:53,902
mine.
531
00:19:56,446 --> 00:19:59,157
Ugh, stop pouring that swill immediately.
532
00:20:00,575 --> 00:20:04,454
A gift
from Charles de Gaulle to me,
533
00:20:04,621 --> 00:20:06,372
and now from me to you.
534
00:20:06,539 --> 00:20:08,791
I'll save my "Jacques Daniels"
for another day.
535
00:20:11,544 --> 00:20:14,380
You know, I think you liked me
more when I was here less.
536
00:20:14,505 --> 00:20:16,090
I feel that way about everyone.
537
00:20:16,257 --> 00:20:17,675
Mm.
538
00:20:17,842 --> 00:20:20,303
If I overstepped this morning,
539
00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:21,930
I apologize.
540
00:20:22,096 --> 00:20:23,890
On the bright side,
you're the proud owner
541
00:20:24,057 --> 00:20:27,185
of 263 lightly used tumbleweeds.
542
00:20:27,352 --> 00:20:31,397
You know, you're the only one
that Joyce and Doug listen to.
543
00:20:31,564 --> 00:20:35,109
And if powerful people listen
only to you,
544
00:20:35,276 --> 00:20:37,904
that means you're the one
with all the power.
545
00:20:38,029 --> 00:20:39,405
It only works
if no one notices.
546
00:20:39,572 --> 00:20:41,324
Hmm.
Well, how about you let me in
547
00:20:41,491 --> 00:20:43,993
on a few more secrets?
548
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,329
I've been looking
into Minx's revenue projection
549
00:20:46,496 --> 00:20:48,831
for the next 24 months.
550
00:20:48,998 --> 00:20:50,959
What are your comps?
551
00:20:51,125 --> 00:20:52,335
Nothing.
552
00:20:52,502 --> 00:20:53,586
Nothing?
553
00:20:53,753 --> 00:20:55,088
I had to create my own.
554
00:20:56,673 --> 00:21:01,052
These are sales
for every BDP title.
555
00:21:01,219 --> 00:21:02,845
Kung Fu Cuties.
556
00:21:03,012 --> 00:21:05,056
Feet! Feet! Feet!
557
00:21:05,223 --> 00:21:06,683
Yank My Doodle.
558
00:21:06,849 --> 00:21:08,518
Oh, vulgar and patriotic.
559
00:21:08,685 --> 00:21:10,520
All high floor, low ceiling.
560
00:21:10,687 --> 00:21:14,065
Dependable,
but marginal profit.
561
00:21:14,232 --> 00:21:16,693
Minx is different.
562
00:21:16,859 --> 00:21:19,570
If there's a ceiling,
I don't know where it is.
563
00:21:19,737 --> 00:21:22,657
That's the first time
I've seen you smile all day.
564
00:21:22,824 --> 00:21:25,451
Huge margins have
that effect on me.
565
00:21:25,618 --> 00:21:27,120
We're gonna get along
just fine.
566
00:21:33,668 --> 00:21:35,795
I haven't spent enough time
in the desert.
567
00:21:35,962 --> 00:21:38,047
You are making
a compelling case.
568
00:21:38,214 --> 00:21:39,674
You gotta come next time.
569
00:21:39,799 --> 00:21:41,467
There's always room on the bus.
570
00:21:41,634 --> 00:21:44,470
- We're on soon.
- Okay.
571
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:45,596
How do you two know each other?
572
00:21:45,763 --> 00:21:47,181
Oh, come on.
How can you live in LA
573
00:21:47,348 --> 00:21:49,350
and not know Jackson Browne?
574
00:21:49,475 --> 00:21:50,560
Sure, sure.
575
00:21:50,727 --> 00:21:52,395
That was Glenn Frey.
576
00:21:52,562 --> 00:21:55,565
Of the Eagles.
577
00:21:55,732 --> 00:21:57,942
Joyce, I'm a reporter
for Rolling Stone.
578
00:21:58,109 --> 00:21:59,736
I know every person
in this place.
579
00:21:59,902 --> 00:22:01,070
Okay, if you're trying
to prove something,
580
00:22:01,237 --> 00:22:02,780
you picked
the wrong place to do it.
581
00:22:02,905 --> 00:22:04,866
Joyce Prigger,
as I live and breathe.
582
00:22:05,033 --> 00:22:07,076
Well, hello, Linda Ronstadt.
583
00:22:07,243 --> 00:22:09,078
- Richie sends his regard.
- Mwah.
584
00:22:09,203 --> 00:22:11,789
You and Simon Michaels.
585
00:22:11,914 --> 00:22:13,249
Don't tell this man anything.
586
00:22:13,416 --> 00:22:15,626
Don't worry, she hasn't.
587
00:22:15,793 --> 00:22:18,588
We've been having a raging
debate on the pay gap in music.
588
00:22:18,755 --> 00:22:20,423
Sonny and Cher are
in a bad place.
589
00:22:20,590 --> 00:22:22,091
We need your help.
590
00:22:22,258 --> 00:22:24,052
- I got you, babe.
- Okay.
591
00:22:24,218 --> 00:22:25,845
You get it?
You get that?
592
00:22:26,012 --> 00:22:27,847
I'm so glad we finally got you
out to one of these things.
593
00:22:28,014 --> 00:22:29,974
Me too, Linda.
594
00:22:30,141 --> 00:22:32,769
And as the black hole pulls
your body apart,
595
00:22:32,935 --> 00:22:37,648
galaxies form and explode
before you over the span
596
00:22:37,774 --> 00:22:42,153
of tens of thousands of years.
597
00:22:44,655 --> 00:22:47,533
Well, that is the fifth time
I've heard that today,
598
00:22:47,658 --> 00:22:49,786
and, uh...
599
00:22:49,952 --> 00:22:52,246
I still don't get it.
600
00:22:52,413 --> 00:22:54,332
Oh, you're so much
more fun to get high with
601
00:22:54,457 --> 00:22:56,876
than that drip, Arthur Miller.
602
00:23:00,129 --> 00:23:01,547
Oh, that's my cue.
603
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:03,424
Burbank airport awaits.
604
00:23:03,591 --> 00:23:05,968
Well, guess who's
flying first class?
605
00:23:06,135 --> 00:23:08,387
She sprung for it,
all three legs.
606
00:23:08,513 --> 00:23:09,388
That's nice.
607
00:23:09,555 --> 00:23:11,307
Fly safe, my dear.
608
00:23:14,644 --> 00:23:16,437
Huh? Huh?
609
00:23:16,604 --> 00:23:18,564
He is a treasure.
610
00:23:18,731 --> 00:23:20,566
He's ours too. We've got him.
611
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:21,609
Mm-hmm.
612
00:23:21,776 --> 00:23:24,112
If you like that,
I got another magazine idea
613
00:23:24,237 --> 00:23:25,530
that's gonna knock
your socks off.
614
00:23:25,696 --> 00:23:28,199
- Okay.
- It's about the working rich.
615
00:23:28,366 --> 00:23:29,951
I wanna call it Jetset.
616
00:23:30,118 --> 00:23:31,869
That's very niche.
617
00:23:32,036 --> 00:23:33,621
No, I say targeted.
618
00:23:33,788 --> 00:23:36,916
I think it's time that we start
streamlining operations,
619
00:23:37,083 --> 00:23:38,709
cut loose
some of the underperformers.
620
00:23:38,876 --> 00:23:40,002
Yeah, I agree.
621
00:23:41,671 --> 00:23:44,507
What, uh...
which ones are you thinking?
622
00:23:44,674 --> 00:23:46,092
- Kung Fu Cuties.
- Kung Fu Cuties.
623
00:23:46,259 --> 00:23:49,345
And Feet! Feet! Feet!
624
00:23:49,512 --> 00:23:50,763
- Really?
- Yeah.
625
00:23:52,473 --> 00:23:54,559
Well, that one stings,
I'm gonna be honest.
626
00:23:54,684 --> 00:23:56,978
This one's gonna
sting the most, then.
627
00:23:57,145 --> 00:23:59,605
I've decided to not
move forward with Beyond.
628
00:24:02,066 --> 00:24:04,652
Yeah.
629
00:24:04,777 --> 00:24:05,695
You're kidding me.
630
00:24:05,862 --> 00:24:07,029
No.
631
00:24:07,196 --> 00:24:09,615
But you just sent Carl
first class.
632
00:24:11,909 --> 00:24:14,203
You just sent Carl first class.
633
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:16,873
The ceiling for science
is just not high,
634
00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:19,876
and it's a misuse
of our most valuable resource.
635
00:24:20,042 --> 00:24:21,085
Which would be what?
636
00:24:21,252 --> 00:24:22,837
You.
637
00:24:22,962 --> 00:24:26,382
Your merchandise has made
more money for this company
638
00:24:26,549 --> 00:24:29,677
in the last six months than
anything in its entire history.
639
00:24:29,844 --> 00:24:31,762
I could just do so much more,
I promise you.
640
00:24:31,929 --> 00:24:34,265
No, but I need you to come up
with more ideas,
641
00:24:34,432 --> 00:24:36,767
your big Renetti ideas,
642
00:24:36,934 --> 00:24:39,562
for Minx.
643
00:24:39,729 --> 00:24:41,230
- All right?
- Yeah, okay.
644
00:24:41,397 --> 00:24:43,065
Carl Sagan is not
the only genius
645
00:24:43,232 --> 00:24:45,610
that I got high with tonight.
646
00:24:45,776 --> 00:24:48,279
You know, they're calling you
Mug Renetti around the office.
647
00:24:48,446 --> 00:24:49,947
You're goddamn right, they are.
648
00:25:01,083 --> 00:25:03,377
I could never date a civilian.
649
00:25:03,544 --> 00:25:05,296
But I really shouldn't
date musicians either.
650
00:25:05,463 --> 00:25:07,548
So you have to find someone
that's close enough
651
00:25:07,715 --> 00:25:08,549
to what you do
that they get it...
652
00:25:08,716 --> 00:25:10,426
- Mm-hmm.
- But far enough away
653
00:25:10,593 --> 00:25:13,221
that they're cool riding
in the passenger seat.
654
00:25:13,346 --> 00:25:14,931
So I could date a musician.
655
00:25:15,097 --> 00:25:16,557
Only if you want herpes.
656
00:25:16,682 --> 00:25:17,683
Oh, my God.
657
00:25:17,850 --> 00:25:18,684
Linda, you're on, babe.
658
00:25:18,851 --> 00:25:20,436
- That's me.
- Okay.
659
00:25:25,608 --> 00:25:28,277
Oh, hi. Me? Um...
660
00:25:32,990 --> 00:25:34,116
Yes.
661
00:25:35,409 --> 00:25:37,453
Oh, fuck.
662
00:25:37,620 --> 00:25:38,913
That's like night coffee.
663
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,122
All right.
664
00:25:40,248 --> 00:25:41,791
I am gonna play a few songs
665
00:25:41,916 --> 00:25:42,959
off the new album tonight.
666
00:25:43,125 --> 00:25:44,460
But I thought first,
667
00:25:44,627 --> 00:25:46,504
we could warm things up
with a little jam.
668
00:25:46,671 --> 00:25:48,714
So, Graham, get up here.
669
00:25:48,881 --> 00:25:51,133
Uh, JD, where is my baby?
670
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:53,636
And--oh, Judee Sill,
I know you're mad at me,
671
00:25:53,803 --> 00:25:55,638
but I need you on guitar.
672
00:25:55,805 --> 00:25:57,390
And I need a volunteer
for shakers.
673
00:25:57,556 --> 00:25:58,766
Me!
674
00:25:58,933 --> 00:26:00,518
- Get up here, Joyce Prigger.
- Okay.
675
00:26:00,685 --> 00:26:02,311
Are you guys ready?
676
00:26:02,478 --> 00:26:04,272
First chair French horn.
677
00:26:07,316 --> 00:26:10,861
♪ I've been cheated ♪
678
00:26:11,028 --> 00:26:14,282
♪ Been mistreated ♪
679
00:26:14,448 --> 00:26:19,453
♪ When will I be loved? ♪
680
00:26:19,620 --> 00:26:20,830
Don't finish yet.
681
00:26:20,997 --> 00:26:23,207
Hold it. Hold it.
682
00:26:23,374 --> 00:26:25,835
Wallace. Look at me.
683
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,670
Not in the eyes.
684
00:26:27,837 --> 00:26:30,339
I said look away,
you little shit.
685
00:26:30,506 --> 00:26:32,008
Hey, Doug.
686
00:26:32,174 --> 00:26:33,384
Um, I took some initiative
687
00:26:33,551 --> 00:26:34,927
and finished
the Minx calendars for you.
688
00:26:35,094 --> 00:26:36,762
Oh, that's unexpected, Bambs.
689
00:26:36,929 --> 00:26:39,515
It's pretty complicated work
690
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,350
to do all that stuff,
but, uh...
691
00:26:44,645 --> 00:26:46,689
- You did this?
- Yeah.
692
00:26:46,856 --> 00:26:48,232
- It's great.
- Thank you.
693
00:26:48,399 --> 00:26:49,734
You kept the pictures big,
694
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:52,570
and you even got Joyce's
boring quotes in there, Bambs.
695
00:26:52,737 --> 00:26:54,697
Yeah, well,
the image is the real draw,
696
00:26:54,822 --> 00:26:56,574
so I put the quotes
in complimentary colors
697
00:26:56,741 --> 00:26:58,075
so they fade
into the background.
698
00:26:58,242 --> 00:27:00,244
It's excellent.
699
00:27:00,411 --> 00:27:01,871
I would like you to consider it
700
00:27:02,038 --> 00:27:04,457
my application
to be your secretary.
701
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:07,251
If I'm gonna be Bottom Dollar
CFO for real someday,
702
00:27:07,418 --> 00:27:09,503
I need to apprentice
with the smartest man I know.
703
00:27:09,670 --> 00:27:11,047
And that's you.
704
00:27:11,213 --> 00:27:13,466
And Colonel Tom Parker,
but he's busy.
705
00:27:15,092 --> 00:27:16,177
Think about it.
706
00:27:21,974 --> 00:27:23,976
I'm really giving it
to her in there.
707
00:27:24,101 --> 00:27:26,228
Hey, Wallace is crying...
708

to having a good time tonight.
726

Yeah, I think
that was the cocaine.
727
00:28:29,291 --> 00:28:31,919
Hey, I'm sorry
for torturing you today.

I've actually been tortured.

It's just...
732
00:28:42,721 --> 00:28:44,515
Look, a lot of the people
that you've profiled
733
00:28:44,682 --> 00:28:46,934
have then taken a fall.
734
00:28:47,101 --> 00:28:49,895
You mean the ones
with death camps.
735
00:28:50,062 --> 00:28:51,814
Yeah, and others.
736
00:28:51,981 --> 00:28:53,858
I see.
737
00:28:57,987 --> 00:28:59,947
I've gotten
everything I've ever wanted,
738
00:29:00,114 --> 00:29:04,076
and it's happened
so fast, and...
739
00:29:04,243 --> 00:29:06,454
And now you're thinking,
what if you just got lucky?
740
00:29:08,456 --> 00:29:12,168
Like, what if I screw it up?
741
00:29:12,334 --> 00:29:14,753
And then it's just
all just gone again.
742
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,047
What then?
743
00:29:18,674 --> 00:29:19,592
I mean, it's possible.
744
00:29:21,719 --> 00:29:24,180
But I have been
testing another theory.
745
00:29:24,305 --> 00:29:25,347
Yeah?
