1
00:00:26,034 --> 00:00:27,656
Mrs. Wong,

2
00:00:27,794 --> 00:00:30,107
thank you for inquiring
about the availability

3
00:00:30,245 --> 00:00:32,144
of our penthouse suite.

4
00:00:32,282 --> 00:00:35,906
I've reviewed your application,
and unfortunately,

5
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,219
me no likey.

6
00:00:53,958 --> 00:00:54,856
Take a guess.

7
00:01:01,897 --> 00:01:02,760
Yes.

8
00:01:05,418 --> 00:01:06,281
Thank you.

9
00:01:16,464 --> 00:01:18,638
I'd like to inform you
that my husband

10
00:01:18,776 --> 00:01:20,502
just purchased this building.

11
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,677
An e-mail confirming
said purchase should be arriving

12
00:01:22,815 --> 00:01:24,403
in your inbox presently.

13
00:01:26,543 --> 00:01:29,166
I trust you'll see
that everything is in order.

14
00:01:29,304 --> 00:01:33,032
- Yes, Mrs. Wong.
- Now, if you wouldn't mind,

15
00:01:33,170 --> 00:01:35,966
could you please attend
to the trash outside?

16
00:01:36,104 --> 00:01:37,519
Right away.

17
00:01:41,834 --> 00:01:43,318
Happy birthday,
Mrs. Wong.

18
00:01:43,456 --> 00:01:45,631
I thought you said
money can't buy happiness.

19
00:01:45,769 --> 00:01:48,220
Well, you be
the judge of that.

20
00:02:28,570 --> 00:02:31,263
-  Hey, guys.
- Miko! That was amazing.

21
00:02:31,401 --> 00:02:33,851
- Miko!
- Ramon, hey!

22
00:02:33,989 --> 00:02:36,889
Hey! Great job.

23
00:02:37,027 --> 00:02:38,270
- Oh, good.
- Thank you.

24
00:02:38,408 --> 00:02:40,064
Um, everyone, I want you to meet

25
00:02:40,203 --> 00:02:42,722
one of our incredible
co-organizers, Miko Higashi.

26
00:02:42,860 --> 00:02:44,690
- Hi, guys.
- Hi.

27
00:02:44,828 --> 00:02:46,416
Oh, and this is
my boyfriend, Ben.

28
00:02:46,554 --> 00:02:49,384
Oh, Miko told me you're
a filmmaker. What'd you think?

29
00:02:49,522 --> 00:02:51,869
I thought
it was a real event.

30
00:02:52,007 --> 00:02:53,492
Agreed.

31
00:02:53,630 --> 00:02:55,252
I can't believe the studio
let us screen it.

32
00:02:55,390 --> 00:02:56,426
Wasn't that amazing?

33
00:02:56,564 --> 00:02:58,048
- Yes.
Miko! Congratulations.

34
00:02:58,186 --> 00:03:00,568
- Insane.
- Hi, how are you?

35
00:03:00,706 --> 00:03:05,193
Look, bruh, I know
it's a little glossy.

36
00:03:05,331 --> 00:03:07,920
But it's ours, right?

37
00:03:08,058 --> 00:03:10,025
That's us, baby, right?

38
00:03:17,585 --> 00:03:19,656
So, what did you think?

39
00:03:19,794 --> 00:03:21,209
Well, Miss Higashi,

40
00:03:21,347 --> 00:03:23,832
after some careful consideration
of the film,

41
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:28,596
I regret to inform you
that me no likey.

42
00:03:30,011 --> 00:03:32,669
Okay. Okay,
I know, I know.

43
00:03:32,807 --> 00:03:34,636
As a community,
we've waited a long time

44
00:03:34,774 --> 00:03:36,259
to see ourselves
reflected in a--

45
00:03:36,397 --> 00:03:38,606
In a garish,
mainstream rom-com

46
00:03:38,744 --> 00:03:41,816
that glorifies the capitalistic
fantasy of vindication

47
00:03:41,954 --> 00:03:44,163
- through wealth and materialism?
- Okay!

48
00:03:44,301 --> 00:03:46,510
I thought you might be
able to see, like,

49
00:03:46,648 --> 00:03:48,443
beyond your own snobby tastes.

50
00:03:48,581 --> 00:03:50,583
- Have we just met?
- Ha!

51
00:03:50,721 --> 00:03:52,516
Look, the reviews
have been incredible,

52
00:03:52,654 --> 00:03:55,795
it's gonna be a massive hit,
and that's what makes it great.

53
00:03:55,933 --> 00:03:57,659
Wow. Heh.

54
00:03:57,797 --> 00:04:00,835
Oh, my God.
It's a game changer, okay?

55
00:04:00,973 --> 00:04:03,976
Now, when you or some other
Asian American filmmaker

56
00:04:04,114 --> 00:04:06,012
wants to make a movie
that's more your style,

57
00:04:06,150 --> 00:04:08,808
something cooler
or more artsy or whatever,

58
00:04:08,946 --> 00:04:10,638
and they're suddenly able
to get funding,

59
00:04:10,776 --> 00:04:12,191
they should get down
on their knees

60
00:04:12,329 --> 00:04:14,262
and bow down
to that garish mainstream hit

61
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,022
that cleared
the way for them.

62
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,231
There wasn't a real character
in the movie.

63
00:04:18,370 --> 00:04:21,165
What's a real character?
A human being, with flaws.

64
00:04:21,304 --> 00:04:23,754
Okay, so like you?
Yes, like me!

65
00:04:23,892 --> 00:04:27,482
I'm not talking about you
or the festival.

66
00:04:27,620 --> 00:04:29,070
I'm just expressing
my opinion

67
00:04:29,208 --> 00:04:31,106
about this particular movie
that you asked for.

68
00:04:31,244 --> 00:04:33,005
You could've at least faked it
with Ramon.

69
00:04:33,143 --> 00:04:35,248
The way you reacted when he
asked us how we liked it?

70
00:04:35,387 --> 00:04:37,250
God, Ben, I wanted to die.

71
00:04:37,389 --> 00:04:40,323
What? I told him the truth.

72
00:04:40,461 --> 00:04:43,326
- What's wrong with that?
- Who are you to criticize?

73
00:04:45,328 --> 00:04:46,639
What's that supposed to mean?

74
00:04:49,159 --> 00:04:50,678
I'm sorry. That's not--

75
00:04:52,369 --> 00:04:54,716
Look, if you didn't
like the movie, it's fine.

76
00:04:54,854 --> 00:04:56,511
I don't understand
why you have to be--

77
00:04:56,649 --> 00:04:58,755
Because it's depressing
to see

78
00:04:58,893 --> 00:05:01,102
a room full of people
lose their minds

79
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,623
over a movie just because
of representation or whatever.

80
00:05:04,761 --> 00:05:08,765
How about the possibility they
also just really enjoyed it?

81
00:05:08,903 --> 00:05:11,181
That would be
even more depressing.

82
00:05:11,319 --> 00:05:13,908
You are too much.

83
00:05:14,046 --> 00:05:16,876
- Or maybe I'm just right, Miko.
- Well, you're not.

84
00:05:20,224 --> 00:05:23,089
I'm still having,
like, aftershock cringes.

85
00:05:23,227 --> 00:05:24,988
Really? I heard it was great.

86
00:05:25,126 --> 00:05:27,197
The entire theater
was going insane.

87
00:05:27,335 --> 00:05:29,993
I thought I was at
a BTS concert.

88
00:05:30,131 --> 00:05:32,271
Well, I'm sure
Miko really appreciated

89
00:05:32,409 --> 00:05:34,169
your in-depth critique.

90
00:05:34,307 --> 00:05:35,999
In the six years
we've been together,

91
00:05:36,137 --> 00:05:38,139
she wasn't into
any of this shit,

92
00:05:38,277 --> 00:05:40,210
this political,
community, whatever.

93
00:05:40,348 --> 00:05:44,352
I got a turkey club
and a tofu scrambled crepe.

94
00:05:44,490 --> 00:05:46,803
- That's me.
- That's disgusting.

95
00:05:46,941 --> 00:05:49,875
I'm trying.
I like your hair, the bangs.

96
00:05:50,013 --> 00:05:51,635
- Really?
- Eclectic.

97
00:05:51,773 --> 00:05:53,948
For some reason, I thought it'd
be a good idea to get drunk

98
00:05:54,086 --> 00:05:56,571
and cut it myself last night.

99
00:05:56,709 --> 00:05:59,125
- I should go get it fixed.
- No, no way!

100
00:05:59,263 --> 00:06:01,093
- Could I--?
- Maybe you can cut my hair.

101
00:06:01,231 --> 00:06:03,336
- I'm overdue for a trim.
- Sorry, can I get some--?

102
00:06:03,475 --> 00:06:06,132
We could get drunk first if--Ketchup!

103
00:06:08,445 --> 00:06:10,585
Can I get some ketchup, please?

104
00:06:12,138 --> 00:06:14,106
Sure. I'll be right back
with that.

105
00:06:16,522 --> 00:06:18,282
Let me know
if you need anything else.

106
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:19,974
I will.

107
00:06:20,112 --> 00:06:21,424
You bet.

108
00:06:23,564 --> 00:06:25,911
So she got
more politically-minded.

109
00:06:26,049 --> 00:06:27,982
I don't get why it's
an affront to you.
It's not.

110
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,122
She's just doing it
because it's trendy.

111
00:06:30,260 --> 00:06:31,468
You'd change your tune if you

112
00:06:31,606 --> 00:06:33,021
suddenly woke up
in Alabama one day.

113
00:06:33,159 --> 00:06:35,127
I was practically
the only non-white person

114
00:06:35,265 --> 00:06:36,300
in my entire high school.

115
00:06:36,439 --> 00:06:37,854
I showed you the yearbook.

116
00:06:37,992 --> 00:06:40,546
It was like
a Mormon modeling agency.

117
00:06:40,684 --> 00:06:43,135
You never felt
discriminated against?

118
00:06:43,273 --> 00:06:45,482
I did,
but not because I was Asian.

119
00:06:45,620 --> 00:06:48,002
Because of your inherent
bad personality.

120
00:06:48,140 --> 00:06:51,454
Exactly. I fucking earned
that outcast status.

121
00:06:51,592 --> 00:06:53,939
Mm! Remember that one guy

122
00:06:54,077 --> 00:06:57,011
from our freshman dorms
who thought everyone was racist?

123
00:06:57,149 --> 00:06:59,496
You're like
the opposite of him.

124
00:06:59,634 --> 00:07:01,498
- Yeah. Thanks.
- Here you are.

125
00:07:01,636 --> 00:07:02,948
God, you're predictable.

126
00:07:12,820 --> 00:07:14,546
Hey, it's getting late.

127
00:07:14,684 --> 00:07:15,581
Yeah.

128
00:07:17,514 --> 00:07:19,999
Do you wanna go to bed soon?

129
00:07:20,137 --> 00:07:22,795
I'm not really tired yet.
I slept in today.

130
00:07:25,315 --> 00:07:28,698
Well, you know, we don't have to
go to sleep right away.

131
00:07:30,734 --> 00:07:32,184
Yeah, I'll be in in a bit.

132
00:07:32,322 --> 00:07:35,256
I just have a couple more discs
I wanna check out.

133
00:07:37,638 --> 00:07:38,501
Okay.

134
00:07:53,654 --> 00:07:55,172
Did you hear the theory
that <i>Snowpiercer</i>

135
00:07:55,310 --> 00:07:56,553
is a sequel to
<i>Willy Wonka?</i>

136
00:07:56,691 --> 00:07:58,382
- I know. I saw the Reddit.
- You saw that?

137
00:07:58,521 --> 00:08:00,592
It was crazy.
Ed Harris is
supposed to be Charlie.

138
00:08:00,730 --> 00:08:01,731
- Hi.
- Hi.

139
00:08:01,869 --> 00:08:03,111
Hey.

140
00:08:03,249 --> 00:08:05,769
I'm here to see about the job.

141
00:08:05,907 --> 00:08:06,943
Oh.
Oh.

142
00:08:07,081 --> 00:08:09,186
Cool. Cool.

143
00:08:12,535 --> 00:08:16,677
Do you have a-a boss
or someone I can talk to?

144
00:08:16,815 --> 00:08:17,988
He's upstairs.

145
00:08:25,237 --> 00:08:26,825
- Hello?
- Yeah?

146
00:08:29,931 --> 00:08:34,315
Um, the guys downstairs said
to talk to you about the job.

147
00:08:36,938 --> 00:08:39,216
Yeah. Yeah. Have a seat.

148
00:08:40,977 --> 00:08:43,289
- How'd that date go?
- Not good.

149
00:08:43,427 --> 00:08:44,808
Did she see your dick?

150
00:08:44,946 --> 00:08:47,466
Not yet. I wanna tell her
about it first.

151
00:08:47,604 --> 00:08:49,779
...they're on the other side
of the concession stand.

152
00:08:49,917 --> 00:08:51,297
Any time you--GENE: Question!

153
00:08:52,816 --> 00:08:53,714
What are you into?

154
00:08:54,749 --> 00:08:57,165
Uh-- Hi, again. What--?

155
00:08:57,303 --> 00:09:00,030
That is Gene,
and that's Lamont.

156
00:09:00,168 --> 00:09:02,308
- How are you?
- Guys, this is Autumn.

157
00:09:02,446 --> 00:09:04,310
She's starting this weekend,
so please--

158
00:09:04,448 --> 00:09:06,830
Movie-wise,
what are you into, baby?

159
00:09:06,968 --> 00:09:08,004
Don't call her "baby."

160
00:09:08,142 --> 00:09:09,522
I'm into genre auteurs.

161
00:09:09,661 --> 00:09:11,663
In other words,
singular filmmakers who--

162
00:09:11,801 --> 00:09:14,079
He's a Christopher Nolan fan,
is what he's trying to say.

163
00:09:14,217 --> 00:09:15,943
Well, that's reductive,
but nonetheless--

164
00:09:16,081 --> 00:09:18,462
I'm more into
world cinema.

165
00:09:18,601 --> 00:09:21,673
Bong Joon-ho,
Ruben OÖstlund, Céline Sciamma.

166
00:09:21,811 --> 00:09:23,433
-  Bullshit alert.
- Stuff that--

167
00:09:23,571 --> 00:09:24,917
Just ignore him. Bullshit alert!

168
00:09:25,055 --> 00:09:26,539
- Let me talk to her!
- Guys.

169
00:09:26,678 --> 00:09:29,508
Let's not scare her off
before she's even started.

170
00:09:29,646 --> 00:09:32,338
So get back to work.
We open soon, all right?

171
00:09:32,476 --> 00:09:33,581
- Sorry.
- All right.

172
00:09:35,307 --> 00:09:37,343
Your favorite movies
are all Marvel.

173
00:09:37,481 --> 00:09:39,552
- What's wrong with that?
- It doesn't challenge you.

174
00:09:39,691 --> 00:09:42,176
Nothing beats
the new <i>Spider-Man,</i> all right?

175
00:09:42,314 --> 00:09:44,005
I prefer the Raimi ones.

176
00:09:44,143 --> 00:09:46,525
Guess I don't need
to explain too much.

177
00:09:46,663 --> 00:09:49,148
Oh. Guess we don't need this.

178
00:09:49,286 --> 00:09:51,392
It's just selling tickets

179
00:09:51,530 --> 00:09:55,845
and answering questions
from confused old people, so...

180
00:09:57,329 --> 00:09:58,399
- I love it.
- Yeah.

181
00:09:59,849 --> 00:10:01,471
I guess I should also mention
that we have

182
00:10:01,609 --> 00:10:03,853
a small video camera
up there.

183
00:10:03,991 --> 00:10:07,235
We had a problem
with the cash box before, so...

184
00:10:07,373 --> 00:10:10,031
Who's gonna be watching me?
You?

185
00:10:11,826 --> 00:10:15,174
Yeah, sorry. It's a rule
the owners implemented.

186
00:10:15,312 --> 00:10:16,866
No, I like being watched.

187
00:10:17,004 --> 00:10:20,179
My therapist says I have
exhibitionistic tendencies.

188
00:10:21,905 --> 00:10:24,528
Oh.
You should come
to one of my shows sometime.

189
00:10:26,289 --> 00:10:28,740
I'm part of a collective
that does performance art,

190
00:10:28,878 --> 00:10:30,811
spoken word,
that sort of thing.

191
00:10:30,949 --> 00:10:32,191
- Cool.
- I don't know.

192
00:10:32,329 --> 00:10:33,572
It might be too weird for you.

193
00:10:33,710 --> 00:10:35,678
Why would it
be weird for me?

194
00:10:37,403 --> 00:10:40,165
- Oh, uh... Sorry. One second.
- Sure.

195
00:10:42,201 --> 00:10:43,444
What are you doing here?

196
00:10:43,582 --> 00:10:45,618
I was having lunch
down on Fourth Street,

197
00:10:45,757 --> 00:10:48,967
- so I got you takeout.
- With who? You're all dressed up.

198
00:10:49,105 --> 00:10:52,211
Just Ling and Ramon and some
of the other festival people.

199
00:10:52,349 --> 00:10:54,558
Here, eat before
the tempura gets soggy.

200
00:10:54,697 --> 00:10:57,561
Oh, thanks.
I should be home around 1.

201
00:10:57,700 --> 00:10:59,115
Okay. I'll try to stay up.

202
00:11:05,604 --> 00:11:07,882
The funny thing is,
Lamont's actually right.

203
00:11:08,020 --> 00:11:11,023
Gene's favorite movies
are literally all on Disney+.

204
00:11:11,161 --> 00:11:14,958
- Are you serious?
- You can't blame him for trying.

205
00:11:15,096 --> 00:11:17,858
Boy, I guess everyone's got
the hots for the new girl, huh?

206
00:11:20,239 --> 00:11:23,311
- What do you mean, everyone?
- I saw her.

207
00:11:23,449 --> 00:11:26,073
Ben, I know your type.

208
00:11:26,211 --> 00:11:28,109
What? I don't have a type.

209
00:11:30,008 --> 00:11:31,285
I don't.

210
00:11:31,423 --> 00:11:33,908
Then how come
you didn't introduce us?

211
00:11:34,046 --> 00:11:37,118
Because unlike you,
I like to spare you the pain

212
00:11:37,256 --> 00:11:39,776
of having to interact
with my coworkers.

213
00:11:39,914 --> 00:11:42,468
Well, you've introduced me
to Gene, Lamont,

214
00:11:42,606 --> 00:11:45,092
- the creepy projectionist guy.
- Okay, fine.

215
00:11:45,230 --> 00:11:47,715
I just didn't know
you'd be so interested

216
00:11:47,853 --> 00:11:49,855
in meeting
the attention-seeking hipster,

217
00:11:49,993 --> 00:11:51,857
but if you really wanted--Oh, don't overdo it, Ben.

218
00:11:51,995 --> 00:11:54,584
- I know what a sucker you are.
- Jesus Christ.

219
00:11:54,722 --> 00:11:56,862
- Give me some credit.
- No. It's fine.

220
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:57,898
Hey, hey, hey.

221
00:11:59,313 --> 00:12:00,763
You know
what my type is?

222
00:12:03,904 --> 00:12:05,698
It's you.

223
00:12:05,837 --> 00:12:07,804
Even when you are
being an asshole.

224
00:12:09,116 --> 00:12:11,152
Shut up.

225
00:12:11,290 --> 00:12:13,292
You're actually the asshole, though.

226
00:12:14,984 --> 00:12:16,502
- I am.
- Every day.

227
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,953
That's why we work,
we're both assholes.

228
00:12:28,238 --> 00:12:30,171
Every time
another cousin gets married,

229
00:12:30,309 --> 00:12:31,655
my parents get
all weird on me,

230
00:12:31,794 --> 00:12:33,519
so thanks for doing this.

231
00:12:33,657 --> 00:12:37,109
I'm honored to play a part in
your bizarre, ongoing charade.

232
00:12:37,247 --> 00:12:38,386
They're so excited.

233
00:12:38,524 --> 00:12:39,767
When I told them about you,

234
00:12:39,905 --> 00:12:41,493
they high-fived
and kissed on the lips.

235
00:12:41,631 --> 00:12:42,528
It was weird.

236
00:12:42,666 --> 00:12:44,185
You know, you'd think the fact

237
00:12:44,323 --> 00:12:45,773
that I'm getting a PhD

238
00:12:45,911 --> 00:12:47,913
would be enough
to make them happy, but nope.

239
00:12:48,051 --> 00:12:49,812
Why do you have
a framed photo of yourself?

240
00:12:49,950 --> 00:12:51,986
Because I'm in love with her.
Oh, um--

241
00:12:52,124 --> 00:12:55,334
Don't mention
that your last name is Tagawa.

242
00:12:55,472 --> 00:12:56,680
My grandpa will be there.

243
00:12:56,819 --> 00:12:58,682
The Korean one.
The Chinese one's dead.

244
00:12:58,821 --> 00:13:01,409
- So?
- Does the phrase World War II

245
00:13:01,547 --> 00:13:02,686
ring a bell with you?

246
00:13:04,171 --> 00:13:06,414
- Right. That.
- No big deal.

247
00:13:06,552 --> 00:13:09,210
Just your people raping
and pillaging all of Korea.

248
00:13:09,348 --> 00:13:11,661
That wasn't my people, okay?

249
00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:12,904
My people were in America

250
00:13:13,042 --> 00:13:14,664
for two generations
when that happened.

251
00:13:14,802 --> 00:13:16,390
My people were getting fucking

252
00:13:16,528 --> 00:13:18,771
locked up in internment camps.

253
00:13:18,910 --> 00:13:21,153
I think the preferred term
is "incarceration camp."

254
00:13:21,291 --> 00:13:22,672
- "Internment" is misleading.
- Yeah.

255
00:13:22,810 --> 00:13:24,743
- You wanna cancel me now?
- Read a book.

256
00:13:24,881 --> 00:13:27,263
- Let's go. We're gonna be late.
- Now you wanna be early?

257
00:13:27,401 --> 00:13:29,644
Also, people mistake me
for Korean all the time.

258
00:13:29,782 --> 00:13:31,025
You wish.

259
00:13:33,856 --> 00:13:36,928
They'd rather see me with a
Japanese guy than a Korean girl.

260
00:13:37,066 --> 00:13:39,344
What you're saying is,
rapists and pillagers

261
00:13:39,482 --> 00:13:41,035
are preferable
to the gays.

262
00:13:41,173 --> 00:13:43,175
Everything is preferable
to the gays.

263
00:13:45,177 --> 00:13:46,040
Alice!

264
00:13:49,043 --> 00:13:51,425
Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.

265
00:13:56,948 --> 00:14:00,952
So we finally get to meet
your mysterious boyfriend, huh?

266
00:14:03,575 --> 00:14:05,439
Yeah, um... Yeah.

267
00:14:06,543 --> 00:14:08,614
Mm.

268
00:14:08,752 --> 00:14:10,271
Uh-- Everyone, this is Ben.

269
00:14:10,409 --> 00:14:11,824
Ben Park.

270
00:14:11,963 --> 00:14:13,309
- Hello, Ben.
- Hi.

271
00:14:14,413 --> 00:14:15,690
Praise Jesus.

272
00:14:18,210 --> 00:14:19,073
Yeah.

273
00:14:19,211 --> 00:14:21,248
Absolutely.

274
00:14:21,386 --> 00:14:23,767
So Alice tells me
you're a youth pastor.

275
00:14:26,805 --> 00:14:29,532
Yes. Yes, I am.

276
00:14:33,260 --> 00:14:34,123
Say hi to my...

277
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,642
Good to meet you, sir.

278
00:14:39,300 --> 00:14:40,336
Mm-hm.

279
00:14:40,474 --> 00:14:42,131
Let's go inside. Hm?

280
00:14:42,269 --> 00:14:44,340
Yeah, we'll be in there
in a second.

281
00:14:51,002 --> 00:14:53,694
- What's wrong with Grandpa?
- Shit. He knows.

282
00:14:54,764 --> 00:14:56,283
What? That I'm Japanese,

283
00:14:56,421 --> 00:14:57,491
or that you're gay?

284
00:14:57,629 --> 00:14:58,975
Shut up.

285
00:15:04,015 --> 00:15:05,844
Hey, can I talk to you
for a sec?

286
00:15:05,982 --> 00:15:07,259
Mm-hm.

287
00:15:09,020 --> 00:15:11,229
So I had to use
your computer today--

288
00:15:11,367 --> 00:15:13,956
- What's wrong with yours?
- I left it at work.

289
00:15:16,165 --> 00:15:18,995
You left a few pages open
on your desktop.

290
00:15:24,069 --> 00:15:27,141
Oh, my God. I've been hacked.

291
00:15:30,834 --> 00:15:32,871
Let's not make
a big deal out of this.

292
00:15:33,009 --> 00:15:35,011
And if it bothers you
that much--

293
00:15:35,149 --> 00:15:36,185
What bothers me, Ben,

294
00:15:36,323 --> 00:15:38,152
is that all of these girls
are white.

295
00:15:39,878 --> 00:15:43,364
- That's what this is about?
- That's what this is about.

296
00:15:43,502 --> 00:15:46,298
It's just not true.
There's different categories.

297
00:15:46,436 --> 00:15:48,335
So if you're looking
for something in particular,

298
00:15:48,473 --> 00:15:50,613
you can--It's not funny, Ben.

299
00:15:50,751 --> 00:15:54,030
It's supposed to be different
from reality, okay?

300
00:15:54,168 --> 00:15:55,273
That's the point. I mean,

301
00:15:55,411 --> 00:15:57,033
if you were stranded
on a desert island,

302
00:15:57,171 --> 00:15:59,725
you wouldn't sit around dreaming
about sand and sun, right?

303
00:15:59,863 --> 00:16:01,244
Is that what
this feels like to you,

304
00:16:01,382 --> 00:16:03,591
being stranded
on a desert island?

305
00:16:03,729 --> 00:16:06,801
It's just, the point is,
sand and sun, they're great--

306
00:16:06,939 --> 00:16:09,425
Do you have any idea
why this might offend me?

307
00:16:09,563 --> 00:16:12,359
It's like you're obsessed
with the typical

308
00:16:12,497 --> 00:16:15,914
Western-media beauty ideal,
yet you're settling for me.

309
00:16:16,052 --> 00:16:18,261
Can you not make this
political, Miko?

310
00:16:18,399 --> 00:16:19,711
And I'm not settling.

311
00:16:19,849 --> 00:16:21,609
I see what you gawk at
when we're out, Ben.

312
00:16:21,747 --> 00:16:22,990
It's always
the same white girl--

313
00:16:23,128 --> 00:16:24,992
Okay! Wow! You're right!

314
00:16:25,130 --> 00:16:27,063
Maybe I have been brainwashed

315
00:16:27,201 --> 00:16:30,066
by some insidious
media conspiracy

316
00:16:30,204 --> 00:16:31,792
into believing
that blonde-haired,

317
00:16:31,930 --> 00:16:33,380
blue-eyed women
are attractive.

318
00:16:33,518 --> 00:16:35,899
I guess I should find
Margot Robbie disgusting.

319
00:16:36,038 --> 00:16:38,074
But somehow,
I've been duped into believing--

320
00:16:38,212 --> 00:16:39,420
You're a fucking dick.

321
00:16:41,215 --> 00:16:43,114
Why are you blowing this up
into such a thing?

322
00:16:43,252 --> 00:16:44,460
It's not like
I'm cheating on you.

323
00:16:44,598 --> 00:16:45,978
- Are you sure?
- Oh, see?

324
00:16:46,117 --> 00:16:48,981
You are the crazy one!
What the fuck is that?

325
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,225
This is what you always do.
You act like an asshole,

326
00:16:51,363 --> 00:16:53,434
then you get angry
when I call you on it.

327
00:16:53,572 --> 00:16:55,678
I'm angry because you always
assume the worst about me

328
00:16:55,816 --> 00:16:58,129
and then you end up acting crazy
over nothing.

329
00:16:58,267 --> 00:16:59,268
It's not nothing.

330
00:16:59,406 --> 00:17:00,890
And I'm not acting crazy,

331
00:17:01,028 --> 00:17:02,961
so stop using
that fucking word!

332
00:17:07,379 --> 00:17:10,072
See?
You're just proving my point.

333
00:17:41,931 --> 00:17:44,934
Hey,
about last night...

334
00:17:47,039 --> 00:17:48,489
It's okay,
don't worry about it.

335
00:17:56,670 --> 00:17:57,912
I think we can both agree--

336
00:17:58,050 --> 00:17:59,431
Coffee's ready.

337
00:18:15,206 --> 00:18:17,380
Excuse the interruption.

338
00:18:17,518 --> 00:18:21,212
Jesus, Gene. You can't just
come up on me like that.

339
00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:25,112
Well, under less
urgent circumstances, fine.

340
00:18:25,250 --> 00:18:27,390
But right now,
we have a situation.

341
00:18:27,528 --> 00:18:31,843
Autumn feels it is imperative
that she go gets a burrito.

342
00:18:31,981 --> 00:18:33,914
But if I go and cover for her,

343
00:18:34,052 --> 00:18:36,399
that's gonna leave Lamont alone
at the concession stand--

344
00:18:36,537 --> 00:18:41,059
Gene! I'm sure Lamont can handle
it for a few minutes. Okay?

345
00:18:42,267 --> 00:18:43,855
Hm.

346
00:18:43,993 --> 00:18:44,890
Interesting.

347
00:18:50,655 --> 00:18:54,348
<i>Where'd you come from?</i> WOMAN: <i>What do you care?</i>

348
00:18:54,486 --> 00:18:56,212
<i>Where'd you live
before you came here?</i>

349
00:18:56,350 --> 00:18:57,696
<i>Socorro.</i>

350
00:18:59,319 --> 00:19:00,182
<i>McDonald.</i>

351
00:19:02,322 --> 00:19:03,185
<i>Oh, yeah.</i>

352
00:19:05,083 --> 00:19:07,050
We have to let
these seismic retrofit guys

353
00:19:07,189 --> 00:19:09,260
inspect the theater,
and we have to pay for it.

354
00:19:09,398 --> 00:19:11,296
That's annoying.

355
00:19:11,434 --> 00:19:14,955
Hey, do you remember that
internship that I applied for?

356
00:19:15,093 --> 00:19:16,543
The what?

357
00:19:16,681 --> 00:19:19,787
The Asian American
Independent Film Institute?

358
00:19:19,925 --> 00:19:21,444
Maybe. What about it?

359
00:19:21,582 --> 00:19:25,931
Well, I finally heard back
from them and I got it.

360
00:19:27,588 --> 00:19:28,555
- Really?
- Yeah.

361
00:19:28,693 --> 00:19:30,798
- That's great, right?
- Yeah.

362
00:19:30,936 --> 00:19:32,938
What does that mean?
When do you start?

363
00:19:33,076 --> 00:19:34,733
Well...

364
00:19:34,871 --> 00:19:37,253
the thing is,
it's in New York.

365
00:19:38,875 --> 00:19:40,981
Okay, you definitely never
told me about this.

366
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,983
I did. It's a three-month
program, and I'm--

367
00:19:43,121 --> 00:19:45,123
Three months?
Are you kidding me?

368
00:19:45,261 --> 00:19:47,263
I know, but it's
an amazing opportunity.

369
00:19:47,401 --> 00:19:48,885
I'm really excited
about it.

370
00:19:49,023 --> 00:19:51,129
It only seems like
an amazing opportunity

371
00:19:51,267 --> 00:19:52,889
because it's in New York.

372
00:19:53,027 --> 00:19:55,237
Yeah, that's part of the reason
why I wanted to do it.

373
00:19:55,375 --> 00:19:57,687
Trust me,
New York is overrated.

374
00:19:57,825 --> 00:20:00,034
It's so gentrified now.

375
00:20:00,172 --> 00:20:01,933
How many times
have you even been there?

376
00:20:02,071 --> 00:20:04,107
- Are we counting layovers?
- No.

377
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:07,939
Look, it doesn't matter.

378
00:20:08,077 --> 00:20:09,975
There's no way
I'm moving to New York

379
00:20:10,113 --> 00:20:11,425
for three months,
all right?

380
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,497
I wasn't really
asking you to.

381
00:20:19,502 --> 00:20:20,400
What?

382
00:20:22,091 --> 00:20:24,852
So, what does this mean?
Are you two broken up?

383
00:20:24,990 --> 00:20:27,130
We're taking
some time off.

384
00:20:27,269 --> 00:20:29,063
- Those are her words.
- Wow.

385
00:20:29,892 --> 00:20:30,962
When does she leave?

386
00:20:31,100 --> 00:20:32,412
Thursday.

387
00:20:32,550 --> 00:20:36,312
And now I have to be
all supportive and shit.

388
00:20:36,450 --> 00:20:39,281
You? Supportive?
That's not really your brand.

389
00:20:39,419 --> 00:20:41,628
Maybe this is a test,
you know?

390
00:20:41,766 --> 00:20:44,009
She wants you to talk her
out of going. Right.

391
00:20:44,147 --> 00:20:45,839
But then I'm the one
holding her back,

392
00:20:45,977 --> 00:20:47,806
- extinguishing her dreams.
- Yeah.

393
00:20:47,944 --> 00:20:49,601
You're pretty much fucked
either way.

394
00:20:55,297 --> 00:20:56,677
Well, this has been fun.

395
00:20:56,815 --> 00:20:58,990
Nina, you didn't charge us
for the fries.

396
00:20:59,128 --> 00:21:00,992
I'm not gonna charge you
for your fries.

397
00:21:01,130 --> 00:21:02,580
- How come?
- You know.

398
00:21:02,718 --> 00:21:04,478
You think I'm cute?

399
00:21:04,616 --> 00:21:05,479
Cool.

400
00:21:06,618 --> 00:21:07,964
Cool.

401
00:21:09,345 --> 00:21:10,381
Also, can you
let your dad know

402
00:21:10,519 --> 00:21:11,830
that I might be late
on rent again?

403
00:21:11,968 --> 00:21:13,763
Oh, it's fine. He's not
even thinking about it.

404
00:21:13,901 --> 00:21:17,180
Cool.
You really didn't
have to drive me.

405
00:21:17,319 --> 00:21:20,770
No. I wanted to. Here.
Give me this.

406
00:21:20,908 --> 00:21:23,739
You'll probably be excited
to have some peace and quiet.

407
00:21:23,877 --> 00:21:25,188
Yeah. Maybe.

408
00:21:26,397 --> 00:21:27,812
I think it'll be
good for you.

409
00:21:41,135 --> 00:21:42,999
Hey.

410
00:21:43,137 --> 00:21:45,485
I don't think
I ever said congratulations

411
00:21:45,623 --> 00:21:47,107
on your internship.

412
00:21:47,245 --> 00:21:49,212
I'm glad
you're happy about it,

413
00:21:49,351 --> 00:21:51,076
but I'm gonna miss you.

414
00:21:53,285 --> 00:21:54,701
It's just a few months.

415
00:21:54,839 --> 00:21:57,117
You're gonna love
being a bachelor again.

416
00:21:57,255 --> 00:22:00,914
Yeah, maybe I'll get back
into writing or something.

417
00:22:01,052 --> 00:22:01,984
Yeah.

418
00:22:07,023 --> 00:22:08,611
Let me know
once you get settled,

419
00:22:08,749 --> 00:22:10,475
and I'll see about coming out
for a weekend sometime.

420
00:22:11,959 --> 00:22:13,996
- Yeah.
- Hey, hey, hey. What the fuck?

421
00:22:14,134 --> 00:22:15,929
You saw that asshole
cut me off right now, right?

422
00:22:16,067 --> 00:22:17,240
Ben, relax.

423
00:22:17,379 --> 00:22:18,932
It's all these tech
assholes taking over

424
00:22:19,070 --> 00:22:21,452
with their fucking McMansions
in Hayward

425
00:22:21,590 --> 00:22:22,832
or wherever the fuck
they live.

426
00:22:22,970 --> 00:22:24,558
It's like, "Get off
the fucking road,

427
00:22:24,696 --> 00:22:26,767
you shithead!
Go back to your artisanal--"

428
00:22:55,693 --> 00:22:58,661
- Hey.
<i>Did she actually leave?</i>

429
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:01,940
Yeah. Yeah, I just got back. <i>So, what's the deal?</i>

430
00:23:02,078 --> 00:23:04,736
You standing on a chair
with a noose around your neck?

431
00:23:04,874 --> 00:23:05,979
No. No.

432
00:23:06,117 --> 00:23:08,706
Ben, can I call you later?

433
00:23:08,844 --> 00:23:11,329
Let me guess. The waitress.

434
00:23:11,467 --> 00:23:12,503
<i>Good luck.</i>

435
00:23:12,641 --> 00:23:13,780
Not that I need it.

436
00:23:13,918 --> 00:23:16,058
Hey, ask her
if she has any ketchup.

437
00:23:16,196 --> 00:23:17,369
<i>Okay, fuck off. Bye.</i>

438
00:24:03,761 --> 00:24:05,970
This next piece is entitled
"Asylum."

439
00:24:08,144 --> 00:24:09,905
It's about immigration.

440
00:24:10,043 --> 00:24:11,562
Three, two, one.

441
00:24:36,552 --> 00:24:39,106
Really?
The whole time I was thinking:

442
00:24:39,244 --> 00:24:40,936
"He's totally hating this."

443
00:24:41,074 --> 00:24:44,871
No, no,
I was overwhelmed.

444
00:24:45,009 --> 00:24:46,528
It was like
a combination of...

445
00:24:48,081 --> 00:24:49,738
performance art
and experimental music.

446
00:24:49,876 --> 00:24:50,773
Bye, Autumn.

447
00:24:50,911 --> 00:24:53,224
- Bye, Colorado Rhythm.
- So good.

448
00:24:53,362 --> 00:24:55,122
- Wonderful job.
- Great.

449
00:24:55,260 --> 00:24:58,747
Yeah, we're trying to combine
the physicality of modern dance

450
00:24:58,885 --> 00:25:00,438
and the improvisation
of free jazz,

451
00:25:00,576 --> 00:25:02,889
and infuse it
with a punk sensibility.

452
00:25:03,027 --> 00:25:05,029
Exactly.

453
00:25:05,167 --> 00:25:06,617
You know, I have to admit,

454
00:25:06,755 --> 00:25:08,377
I didn't really know
what to expect,

455
00:25:08,515 --> 00:25:10,552
but that was amazing.

456
00:25:12,105 --> 00:25:13,555
That's so cool.

457
00:25:13,693 --> 00:25:15,039
Oh!

458
00:25:15,591 --> 00:25:16,488
Heh.

459
00:25:21,735 --> 00:25:23,461
Something wrong
with the usual place?

460
00:25:23,599 --> 00:25:25,359
No. I just wanted
to try somewhere new.

461
00:25:25,497 --> 00:25:26,775
Plus, I know this guy,
Ji-Hun.

462
00:25:26,913 --> 00:25:29,260
He works here,
he'll give us a discount.

463
00:25:29,398 --> 00:25:33,540
Plus, I'm kind of trying
to dodge that waitress.

464
00:25:33,678 --> 00:25:35,680
Why? I thought you guys were,
you know, serious.

465
00:25:35,818 --> 00:25:37,302
She started getting
all attached.

466
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:38,959
You know I can't do that.

467
00:25:39,097 --> 00:25:40,754
You have problems.

468
00:25:40,892 --> 00:25:42,963
Just because I'm not
a serial monogamist like you?

469
00:25:43,101 --> 00:25:44,689
- That was the old me.
- Right.

470
00:25:44,827 --> 00:25:48,175
Okay, you think I'm gonna sit
around pining away for Miko

471
00:25:48,313 --> 00:25:50,592
while she's off traipsing
around New York?

472
00:25:50,730 --> 00:25:52,904
Wait. I thought you said
you guys weren't broken up.

473
00:25:53,042 --> 00:25:54,596
I said we were taking
some time off.

474
00:25:54,734 --> 00:25:58,116
I don't understand why
that's so confusing for you.

475
00:25:58,254 --> 00:26:01,672
All I'm saying
is that while the cat's away,

476
00:26:01,810 --> 00:26:04,088
- the mouse will play.
- The mouse will play.

477
00:26:04,226 --> 00:26:05,745
With himself probably.

478
00:26:05,883 --> 00:26:07,298
What if I told you
I already met someone?

479
00:26:07,436 --> 00:26:08,437
- Wait, what?
- Yeah.

480
00:26:08,575 --> 00:26:10,439
- Who?
- Autumn.

481
00:26:10,577 --> 00:26:12,855
She's--The girl from the movie theater?

482
00:26:12,993 --> 00:26:14,685
Ew! How old is she?

483
00:26:14,823 --> 00:26:16,134
Twenty-three, 24, 25.

484
00:26:16,272 --> 00:26:18,033
Probably the same age
as your waitress.

485
00:26:18,171 --> 00:26:20,242
- Okay, that's different.
- How is that different?

486
00:26:20,380 --> 00:26:23,866
Everything's less creepy without
the hetero power dynamics.

487
00:26:24,004 --> 00:26:27,007
Alice. I haven't seen you
in a while. Where you been?

488
00:26:27,145 --> 00:26:29,354
At better restaurants.

489
00:26:29,492 --> 00:26:31,218
Ji-Hun, this is Ben.

490
00:26:31,356 --> 00:26:32,841
Oh, yeah.
She told me about you.

491
00:26:32,979 --> 00:26:34,877
You're the one
who's into white girls.

492
00:26:35,015 --> 00:26:37,017
No, I'm-- That's--Hey, hey. It's all good.

493
00:26:37,155 --> 00:26:39,468
I mean, I'm more into the
content of one's character,

494
00:26:39,606 --> 00:26:40,676
but you do you, man.

495
00:26:40,814 --> 00:26:42,678
- Respect.
- What do you want?

496
00:26:42,816 --> 00:26:45,681
Can I get the cheeseburger
with a salad?

497
00:26:45,819 --> 00:26:47,683
- Fuck it. Give me the fries.
- Okay.

498
00:26:47,821 --> 00:26:49,305
Give me
all of the fries.

499
00:26:49,443 --> 00:26:50,893
We've had to cancel
a few screenings

500
00:26:51,031 --> 00:26:53,068
because they interfered
with their schedule.

501
00:26:53,206 --> 00:26:54,621
<i>Oh, jeez.</i>

502
00:26:54,759 --> 00:26:56,243
How's the internship?

503
00:26:56,381 --> 00:26:58,832
You haven't told me
much about it.

504
00:26:58,970 --> 00:27:01,179
<i>Well, you know,
I've learned not to bore you,</i>

505
00:27:01,317 --> 00:27:02,733
<i>but it's incredible.</i>

506
00:27:02,871 --> 00:27:05,667
That's great. <i>I keep having these moments</i>

507
00:27:05,805 --> 00:27:09,429
where I'll stop and think, like,
"Wow, I'm in New York City."

508
00:27:09,567 --> 00:27:12,881
Well, that is where you are. <i>I know, Ben.</i>

509
00:27:13,019 --> 00:27:14,572
You don't have to get
all sarcastic

510
00:27:14,710 --> 00:27:16,298
just because
I'm enjoying myself.

511
00:27:16,436 --> 00:27:17,851
You started it with the whole

512
00:27:17,989 --> 00:27:19,784
"I've learned not to bore you"
comment.

513
00:27:19,922 --> 00:27:22,200
"You started it"?
What are you, 9?

514
00:27:22,338 --> 00:27:24,202
I'm just trying
to act interested.

515
00:27:24,340 --> 00:27:25,894
<i></i> And you, you know...

516
00:27:26,032 --> 00:27:28,413
Okay, well, why can't you ever
just be genuinely interested?

517
00:27:28,551 --> 00:27:30,277
You really want me
to answer that?

518
00:27:31,727 --> 00:27:32,866
You know what?

519
00:27:33,004 --> 00:27:35,386
Maybe we just shouldn't talk
for a while.

520
00:27:35,524 --> 00:27:36,870
<i>What?</i>

521
00:27:37,008 --> 00:27:38,769
<i>Miko, come on, I was joking--</i>

522
00:27:47,156 --> 00:27:48,192
Cool bar.

523
00:27:48,330 --> 00:27:50,608
Yeah. It's super gritty.

524
00:27:50,746 --> 00:27:54,923
Yeah. I probably shouldn't
have had that last drink.

525
00:27:55,061 --> 00:27:57,960
You mean,
that second light beer?

526
00:27:58,098 --> 00:28:00,963
I didn't realize people lived
in this building.

527
00:28:01,101 --> 00:28:02,724
Oh, it's totally livable.

528
00:28:02,862 --> 00:28:05,761
I mean, it's not up to code,
but, um, it's livable.

529
00:28:07,038 --> 00:28:09,178
Why don't I get us some drinks?

530
00:28:10,248 --> 00:28:11,387
Wow.

531
00:28:13,838 --> 00:28:14,736
What's all this?

532
00:28:16,220 --> 00:28:19,119
This is one of my works
in progress.

533
00:28:19,257 --> 00:28:23,227
I wake up every morning, go pee,
and then I take a picture.

534
00:28:28,957 --> 00:28:30,717
- You're serious.
- Yeah.

535
00:28:30,855 --> 00:28:33,306
It's gonna be a huge
installation someday.

536
00:28:33,444 --> 00:28:36,792
Right now, the working title
is <i>Epistemology.</i>

537
00:28:36,930 --> 00:28:38,311
It's kind of a pun.

538
00:28:38,449 --> 00:28:40,831
How about <i>Urine Sane?</i>

539
00:28:40,969 --> 00:28:41,866
Yeah, right?

540
00:28:47,492 --> 00:28:48,735
That wasn't very nice.

541
00:28:50,426 --> 00:28:52,256
No. No, no, no, I was just--

542
00:28:53,464 --> 00:28:55,604
It's cool, actually.

543
00:28:55,742 --> 00:28:58,641
Yeah. There's actually--
I can--

544
00:28:58,780 --> 00:28:59,988
So much subtext.

545
00:29:00,126 --> 00:29:03,439
I think it's
a real commentary on, uh...

546
00:29:04,924 --> 00:29:07,029
Consumption and waste.

547
00:29:07,167 --> 00:29:10,688
You nailed it.
Yes, exactly, that.

548
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,449
Why don't we go
into the kitchen?

549
00:29:13,587 --> 00:29:15,313
I think my roommate
might be sleeping.

550
00:29:15,451 --> 00:29:17,281
Oh, sure.

551
00:29:17,419 --> 00:29:18,869
Yeah.

552
00:29:19,007 --> 00:29:22,182
I think I have some soju
in here somewhere.

553
00:29:29,155 --> 00:29:30,397
Hey.

554
00:29:30,535 --> 00:29:31,467
Hi.

555
00:29:34,643 --> 00:29:37,680
- Oh!
- Oh, I'm so sorry. I--

556
00:29:37,819 --> 00:29:41,098
- Don't you have a girlfriend?
- We're taking some--

557
00:29:41,236 --> 00:29:44,342
We're basically broken up.
She moved to New York.

558
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:45,723
Oh, I didn't know that.

559
00:29:47,173 --> 00:29:48,139
Yeah.

560
00:29:50,521 --> 00:29:51,625
So...

561
00:29:52,937 --> 00:29:54,870
Um--

562
00:29:55,008 --> 00:29:57,079
- I-- Sorry.
- Sorry, I just--

563
00:29:57,217 --> 00:30:03,223
I'm just really skittish
around germs

564
00:30:03,361 --> 00:30:06,571
and, um, fluids and...

565
00:30:08,194 --> 00:30:10,299
bacteria.

566
00:30:12,439 --> 00:30:13,993
Okay.

567
00:30:14,131 --> 00:30:15,546
- I'm sorry, okay?
- No.

568
00:30:15,684 --> 00:30:17,582
No, no, no.
I should apologize.

569
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,377
I should have--JEFFREY: Hey, Autumn.

570
00:30:19,515 --> 00:30:20,758
Hi, Jeffrey.

571
00:30:20,896 --> 00:30:22,380
Ben, this is
my roommate Jeffrey.

572
00:30:22,518 --> 00:30:23,968
He's the dancer
from the show you saw.

573
00:30:24,106 --> 00:30:25,245
- Hey, man.
- Hey.

574
00:30:25,383 --> 00:30:27,696
- Nice to meet you.
- Great to meet you.

575
00:30:27,834 --> 00:30:28,870
Ooh. Soju.

576
00:30:29,008 --> 00:30:30,802
- Mm-hm.
- Ahem.

577
00:30:33,184 --> 00:30:34,806
Does he ever
wear clothes?

578
00:30:36,015 --> 00:30:36,878
Rude.

579
00:30:39,708 --> 00:30:42,055
It's for the best.
How can you even get it up

580
00:30:42,193 --> 00:30:44,816
for someone who does that
cringy, bullshit art?

581
00:30:44,955 --> 00:30:46,922
You'd be amazed
at what I can overlook.

582
00:30:47,060 --> 00:30:48,234
It's probably not a good look

583
00:30:48,372 --> 00:30:49,649
to be dating an employee
anyway, so...

584
00:30:49,787 --> 00:30:50,961
<i>Now you mention that.</i>

585
00:30:51,099 --> 00:30:53,895
You're a very unreliable
moral compass.

586
00:30:54,033 --> 00:30:55,793
I don't remember signing up
for that job.

587
00:30:55,931 --> 00:30:57,484
God, I'm an idiot.

588
00:30:57,622 --> 00:30:58,934
<i>No, you're just
out of practice.</i>

589
00:30:59,072 --> 00:31:01,419
Come with me
to this party on Saturday.

590
00:31:01,557 --> 00:31:02,731
You might learn
a thing or two.

591
00:31:02,869 --> 00:31:04,906
<i>Like where the clitoris is.</i>

592
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:12,637
Hi.

593
00:31:12,775 --> 00:31:14,432
Hey. Um...

594
00:31:16,124 --> 00:31:17,884
How was the crowd
for the 7:30?

595
00:31:19,196 --> 00:31:21,577
Great. Like eight
or nine tickets.

596
00:31:21,715 --> 00:31:23,131
Cool.

597
00:31:23,269 --> 00:31:24,649
Um...

598
00:31:27,135 --> 00:31:29,965
Listen, I just wanted
to say I'm so sorry

599
00:31:30,103 --> 00:31:31,449
about the other night.

600
00:31:31,587 --> 00:31:32,934
It's totally cool.

601
00:31:33,072 --> 00:31:35,384
No, I think
I misread things, and I--

602
00:31:35,522 --> 00:31:37,939
No, no, you didn't.
I just--

603
00:31:38,077 --> 00:31:40,079
In the moment,
it didn't feel right.

604
00:31:41,977 --> 00:31:44,152
Yeah, that makes sense.
I just-- I s--

605
00:31:44,290 --> 00:31:45,877
Sometimes I think the body

606
00:31:46,016 --> 00:31:48,294
knows better than the mind,
you know?

607
00:31:49,778 --> 00:31:51,504
When it comes
to sexual attraction.

608
00:31:53,299 --> 00:31:56,509
And then sometimes
the mind is like, "Maybe."

609
00:31:56,647 --> 00:31:58,062
But then the body is like:

610
00:31:59,650 --> 00:32:01,031
"No."
Right.

611
00:32:01,169 --> 00:32:03,895
I wasn't always able
to be this honest with myself,

612
00:32:04,034 --> 00:32:07,175
but I'm really trying
to be more mindful.

613
00:32:07,313 --> 00:32:09,522
That's really great.

614
00:32:09,660 --> 00:32:10,937
Happy for you.

615
00:32:11,075 --> 00:32:12,801
Thank you.
Happy for you too.

616
00:32:14,147 --> 00:32:15,804
Keep up the great work.

617
00:32:17,323 --> 00:32:18,324
- You too.
Lamont!

618
00:32:19,497 --> 00:32:20,636
Yo, Ben tried to fuck--

619
00:33:07,304 --> 00:33:08,546
So, what do you think?

620
00:33:08,684 --> 00:33:10,686
Do I look like
an eligible bachelor?

621
00:33:10,824 --> 00:33:13,206
Yeah. About that... What?

622
00:33:14,828 --> 00:33:17,555
Is this...?
You brought me to a gay thing?

623
00:33:17,693 --> 00:33:21,456
Okay, that's a very narrow
and exclusionary term, Ben.

624
00:33:21,594 --> 00:33:23,941
- Right, sorry.
- But basically, yeah.

625
00:33:24,079 --> 00:33:25,460
What the fuck, Alice?

626
00:33:25,598 --> 00:33:28,601
Can you just be
a normal person for once

627
00:33:28,739 --> 00:33:31,466
and enjoy a nice
social experience

628
00:33:31,604 --> 00:33:33,744
without obsessing over
who you're hooking up with?

629
00:33:33,882 --> 00:33:35,677
Oh, my God.
Look who's talking.

630
00:33:35,815 --> 00:33:39,646
Just because I'm a hypocrite
doesn't mean I'm wrong.

631
00:33:43,616 --> 00:33:44,893
All right!

632
00:33:45,031 --> 00:33:47,344
Alice Lee has arrived!

633
00:34:12,714 --> 00:34:14,819
Anyone have
a bottle opener?

634
00:34:14,957 --> 00:34:16,131
What for?
It's a twist-off.

635
00:34:26,314 --> 00:34:28,626
Sorry, man,
I'm just fucking with you. Here.

636
00:34:33,631 --> 00:34:34,529
Thank you.

637
00:34:49,820 --> 00:34:51,339
You must be
Alice's friend.

638
00:34:52,857 --> 00:34:53,789
Supposedly.

639
00:34:55,653 --> 00:34:57,483
I overheard some talk
of an interloper.

640
00:34:59,933 --> 00:35:01,072
I'm Sasha.

641
00:35:04,524 --> 00:35:06,112
I'm Ben.

642
00:35:06,250 --> 00:35:07,148
Hi.

643
00:35:09,357 --> 00:35:11,117
You know, I bet we have
something in common.

644
00:35:11,255 --> 00:35:12,325
And what is that?

645
00:35:12,463 --> 00:35:13,878
We're probably
the only two people

646
00:35:14,016 --> 00:35:16,260
at this party
that Alice Lee has not seduced.

647
00:35:17,675 --> 00:35:19,056
- Really?
- Yeah.

648
00:35:19,194 --> 00:35:21,023
You've managed to--Oh, yeah.

649
00:35:21,162 --> 00:35:22,301
Yeah, dodged that bullet.

650
00:35:22,439 --> 00:35:24,199
- No offense.
- None taken.

651
00:35:27,168 --> 00:35:29,998
- Do you go to school with--?
- Yeah. Yeah.

652
00:35:30,136 --> 00:35:33,243
Comp Lit with a focus
on Latin American Marxism.

653
00:35:33,381 --> 00:35:34,692
Wow.

654
00:35:34,830 --> 00:35:37,281
That's actually
my favorite kind of Marxism.

655
00:35:37,419 --> 00:35:38,731
I, uh--Seriously?

656
00:35:38,869 --> 00:35:42,010
No. I'm probably
the least-informed person here.

657
00:35:42,148 --> 00:35:43,045
I doubt that.

658
00:35:45,738 --> 00:35:47,360
So, what's your deal?

659
00:35:47,498 --> 00:35:49,535
You're, like,
Alice's designated driver?

660
00:35:49,673 --> 00:35:53,401
Don't even know what I'm really
doing here, to be honest.

661
00:35:53,539 --> 00:35:54,781
There you are.

662
00:35:54,919 --> 00:35:56,404
Let's go.

663
00:35:56,542 --> 00:35:58,440
- Hi, Sasha.
- Hi, Alice.

664
00:35:58,578 --> 00:35:59,717
I guess we're leaving.

665
00:35:59,855 --> 00:36:01,581
I work at the Berkeley Arts Cinema.

666
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,343
Please stop by
for a free movie.

667
00:36:04,481 --> 00:36:05,344
Okay.

668
00:36:06,483 --> 00:36:08,070
Popcorn.

669
00:36:08,209 --> 00:36:10,107
Free popcorn.

670
00:36:10,245 --> 00:36:11,350
Cool.

671
00:36:11,488 --> 00:36:12,558
What are you doing?

672
00:36:16,044 --> 00:36:18,633
Trust me, you do not wanna
get involved with Sasha.

673
00:36:18,771 --> 00:36:20,704
She's a fence-sitter.

674
00:36:20,842 --> 00:36:22,602
Weren't you the one
who gave me a lecture

675
00:36:22,740 --> 00:36:25,122
about narrow
exclusionary terms?

676
00:36:25,260 --> 00:36:26,882
I'm allowed.

677
00:36:27,020 --> 00:36:30,196
I'm telling you, she's total
bad news. You'll regret it.

678
00:36:30,334 --> 00:36:31,542
She seemed nice to me.

679
00:36:33,855 --> 00:36:34,718
"Free popcorn."

680
00:36:36,375 --> 00:36:37,238
Shut up.

681
00:36:38,411 --> 00:36:39,895
Oh...

682
00:36:40,033 --> 00:36:40,931
How do you do it?

683
00:36:42,898 --> 00:36:44,831
Spit so much game
effortlessly?

684
00:36:50,975 --> 00:36:53,495
So we've got another show
coming up pretty soon.

685
00:36:53,633 --> 00:36:55,186
Oh, yeah? That's great.

686
00:36:55,325 --> 00:36:57,188
Yeah, I know how much you loved
our last one,

687
00:36:57,327 --> 00:37:01,365
and this one's kind of, like,
the same, only more intense.

688
00:37:01,503 --> 00:37:03,333
Wow. What night is it?

689
00:37:03,471 --> 00:37:05,645
Because I might not
be able to do--

690
00:37:05,783 --> 00:37:07,647
It's a monthlong residency.

691
00:37:07,785 --> 00:37:10,823
So you could come
multiple times.

692
00:37:10,961 --> 00:37:13,066
A month. Perfect.

693
00:37:13,204 --> 00:37:15,276
Yeah. It changes
night to night.

694
00:37:15,414 --> 00:37:16,691
It's like jazz, right?

695
00:37:16,829 --> 00:37:18,589
Of course.
I will just check--

696
00:37:19,797 --> 00:37:21,316
Hi. Remember me?

697
00:37:21,454 --> 00:37:23,801
Yeah. Oh, sorry.

698
00:37:23,939 --> 00:37:25,596
Of course. Hey.

699
00:37:25,734 --> 00:37:27,460
I was just passing by.

700
00:37:29,082 --> 00:37:30,601
Do you wanna see a movie?

701
00:37:31,740 --> 00:37:33,915
No. Maybe some other time.

702
00:37:34,053 --> 00:37:35,675
Okay. Uh, don't move.

703
00:37:38,713 --> 00:37:41,474
Hi. I'm hosting a fundraiser
to benefit my art.

704
00:37:41,612 --> 00:37:43,925
- She's good. Thanks. Thanks.
- Sorry.

705
00:37:44,063 --> 00:37:46,065
- Have you eaten lunch?
- I have not.

706
00:37:47,342 --> 00:37:49,206
Wow, this place
is so good.

707
00:37:49,344 --> 00:37:52,209
- You've never been here before?
- Mm-mm.

708
00:37:52,347 --> 00:37:56,317
I was in a relationship,
and she became a vegetarian.

709
00:37:56,455 --> 00:37:57,973
And then a vegan.

710
00:37:58,111 --> 00:37:59,768
And then a raw-food vegan.

711
00:37:59,906 --> 00:38:02,323
And now all she eats is dirt.

712
00:38:02,461 --> 00:38:03,600
Yeah, well, needless to say,

713
00:38:03,738 --> 00:38:06,016
places like this
were off-limits.

714
00:38:06,154 --> 00:38:08,329
It actually still feels
a little transgressive.

715
00:38:08,467 --> 00:38:10,400
Uh--

716
00:38:10,538 --> 00:38:14,231
So how long ago did you and...?Pilar.

717
00:38:14,369 --> 00:38:16,475
Am I prying here?
I don't wanna be intrusive.

718
00:38:16,613 --> 00:38:19,098
No, no, no. It's fine. Um...

719
00:38:19,236 --> 00:38:23,344
I guess we've been broken up
for a couple months now.

720
00:38:24,828 --> 00:38:26,554
I should probably say longer, right?

721
00:38:26,692 --> 00:38:29,039
Just so it doesn't seem like
I'm just jumping from one thing

722
00:38:29,177 --> 00:38:30,489
to another thing.

723
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:35,701
That's a great thought.

724
00:38:35,839 --> 00:38:38,359
But you say it's too long,
then you run the risk of--

725
00:38:38,497 --> 00:38:41,189
Right. Like, "Hi. I haven't been
on a date in three years.

726
00:38:41,327 --> 00:38:43,294
Do you wanna meet my cats?"

727
00:38:43,433 --> 00:38:46,263
- Wait, do you actually have cats?
- Maybe.

728
00:38:48,610 --> 00:38:50,129
Okay, what about you?

729
00:38:50,267 --> 00:38:52,062
How long have you
been broken up for?

730
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,961
- About ten years.
- Oh.

731
00:38:55,099 --> 00:38:58,413
No, I am kidding.
About the same as you.

732
00:38:59,552 --> 00:39:01,623
Hm. Okay.

733
00:39:01,761 --> 00:39:04,074
Do you have to
go back to work?

734
00:39:05,524 --> 00:39:07,146
Yeah, unfortunately.

735
00:39:07,284 --> 00:39:09,804
Okay. Well--But tomorrow...

736
00:39:09,942 --> 00:39:12,393
Tomorrow I have off.

737
00:39:12,531 --> 00:39:15,085
- Okay.
- I swear, I'm not this desperate.

738
00:39:15,223 --> 00:39:18,709
I just-- I'm a little
out of practice.

739
00:39:18,847 --> 00:39:20,021
It's clear.

740
00:39:23,024 --> 00:39:24,128
I'm sorry.
It's gotta be fascinating

741
00:39:24,266 --> 00:39:25,578
to listen to me
just drone on and on

742
00:39:25,716 --> 00:39:27,580
- about grad-school politics.
- No, it's okay.

743
00:39:27,718 --> 00:39:30,203
I stopped listening
a long time ago. No.

744
00:39:31,273 --> 00:39:33,310
- I'm joking.
- Oh, man.

745
00:39:33,448 --> 00:39:34,898
I just-- I always do this.

746
00:39:35,036 --> 00:39:37,141
I'm, like, hermetically sealed
in this bubble.

747
00:39:37,279 --> 00:39:39,281
- It's just tiresome.
- No. It's good.

748
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:42,664
I-- I'm actually reminded
why I dropped out.

749
00:39:42,802 --> 00:39:44,977
Oh.

750
00:39:45,115 --> 00:39:47,117
Yeah, what were you
studying, again?

751
00:39:47,255 --> 00:39:48,325
Film.

752
00:39:48,463 --> 00:39:51,052
Yeah, I got through
two years,

753
00:39:51,190 --> 00:39:54,849
had this epiphany that academia
is the enemy of art.

754
00:39:54,987 --> 00:39:58,991
I need to stop studying
and start creating.

755
00:39:59,129 --> 00:40:00,958
- And?
- Should've kept studying.

756
00:40:05,376 --> 00:40:09,035
Yeah. So wrote a script
and did the whole

757
00:40:09,173 --> 00:40:11,452
maxing-out-the-credit-card
thing,

758
00:40:11,590 --> 00:40:13,315
rented a bunch of equipment,

759
00:40:13,454 --> 00:40:15,835
roped a bunch of friends
into helping me.

760
00:40:15,973 --> 00:40:18,562
- What happened?
- It was a fucking disaster.

761
00:40:21,496 --> 00:40:26,363
I was trying to be the next
Eric Rohmer or something.

762
00:40:26,501 --> 00:40:30,194
But I had to accept eventually
that I was just a...

763
00:40:31,955 --> 00:40:33,922
current Ben Tagawa.

764
00:40:37,685 --> 00:40:39,618
That's the saddest thing
I've ever heard.

765
00:40:41,516 --> 00:40:43,587
- Thank you for agreeing with me.
- Okay.

766
00:40:43,725 --> 00:40:46,866
- That's very nice of you.
- Wait. What was I supposed--?

767
00:40:50,456 --> 00:40:51,871
- There you go.
- Thank you.

768
00:40:56,186 --> 00:40:58,188
Okay, relax.

769
00:40:58,326 --> 00:40:59,223
Oh, my God.

770
00:41:00,673 --> 00:41:01,536
Oh, no, what?

771
00:41:03,055 --> 00:41:05,506
You have the softest skin
I've ever felt.

772
00:41:05,644 --> 00:41:09,233
It's due to a lifetime
of work avoidance.

773
00:41:14,756 --> 00:41:15,999
Do you think we should...?

774
00:41:18,173 --> 00:41:19,071
Can I kiss you?

775
00:41:20,348 --> 00:41:21,383
- Ben.
- Sorry.

776
00:41:21,522 --> 00:41:23,593
- That was not good.
- No.

777
00:41:23,731 --> 00:41:25,664
No, no, no. Um...

778
00:41:25,802 --> 00:41:28,459
Yes. Consent granted.

779
00:41:28,598 --> 00:41:31,083
- Are you sure?
- Yeah. It's much appreciated.

780
00:41:31,221 --> 00:41:32,671
Thank you and great job.

781
00:41:43,820 --> 00:41:45,166
- Fuck.
- Are you okay?

782
00:41:46,408 --> 00:41:47,306
Fine. Just... Okay.

783
00:42:02,114 --> 00:42:05,807
Are you okay?
You just seem a little off.

784
00:42:05,945 --> 00:42:09,397
Sorry,
I was just overly excited.

785
00:42:13,919 --> 00:42:15,955
Do--? Are you--?
Do you need help? You good?

786
00:42:16,093 --> 00:42:16,956
- Thank you.
- Okay.

787
00:42:19,338 --> 00:42:20,442
Wow.

788
00:42:20,581 --> 00:42:21,582
Actually, it's, um...

789
00:42:22,962 --> 00:42:24,757
It's just that I've never--

790
00:42:24,895 --> 00:42:26,069
I've never been with--

791
00:42:26,207 --> 00:42:27,104
With?

792
00:42:29,106 --> 00:42:32,282
I mean, never mind.
I just meant it's been a while.

793
00:42:32,420 --> 00:42:35,147
It's cool.
I know what you were gonna say.

794
00:42:35,285 --> 00:42:38,771
And this will actually be
a first for me too. So...

795
00:42:48,229 --> 00:42:50,093
Ew! Are you serious?

796
00:42:50,231 --> 00:42:51,612
Oh, my God.

797
00:42:51,750 --> 00:42:54,649
You're actually jealous
of me for once.

798
00:42:54,787 --> 00:42:55,650
<i>Oh, please.</i>

799
00:42:55,788 --> 00:42:56,686
You think I give a shit

800
00:42:56,824 --> 00:42:58,239
about some trendy dabbler?

801
00:42:58,377 --> 00:43:02,208
Jesus. Can I bask in my glory
for one fucking minute?

802
00:43:02,346 --> 00:43:05,004
Sorry. I'm just
in a shitty mood.

803
00:43:05,142 --> 00:43:06,350
<i>Yeah, I can tell.</i>

804
00:43:06,488 --> 00:43:08,801
I was gonna regale you
with details too.

805
00:43:08,939 --> 00:43:11,493
I got kicked out of school. <i>What?</i>

806
00:43:11,632 --> 00:43:13,426
What do you mean?

807
00:43:13,564 --> 00:43:16,395
Can you just come over
when you can?

808
00:43:18,017 --> 00:43:19,640
<i>Yeah. Yeah, I'll be there.</i>

809
00:43:21,814 --> 00:43:24,058
Remember when I took you
to that stupid party?

810
00:43:24,196 --> 00:43:26,336
The fateful night.
It all began there.

811
00:43:26,474 --> 00:43:29,857
Yeah. I got into an argument
with Nina's fucking roommate.

812
00:43:29,995 --> 00:43:32,687
Nina?
The waitress
with the fucking bangs?

813
00:43:32,825 --> 00:43:34,137
The one you ghosted

814
00:43:34,275 --> 00:43:36,070
because she was allowing
the relationship

815
00:43:36,208 --> 00:43:37,519
to progress
in a mature way.

816
00:43:37,658 --> 00:43:40,039
Whatever. So I bump into
the roommate on campus,

817
00:43:40,177 --> 00:43:42,732
and she fucking got all up in
my face and kept talking shit!

818
00:43:42,870 --> 00:43:44,526
So I kicked her
in the pussy.

819
00:43:46,563 --> 00:43:49,014
- What the fuck, Alice?
- I warned her, okay?

820
00:43:49,152 --> 00:43:50,429
All she had to do
was back off.

821
00:43:50,567 --> 00:43:52,258
Did she go to the hospital?
Is she okay?

822
00:43:52,396 --> 00:43:54,295
No, she didn't go
to the hospital, okay?

823
00:43:54,433 --> 00:43:56,538
It wasn't like that.
I was just-- I was sitting,

824
00:43:56,677 --> 00:43:59,541
and she was coming at me,
and I just stopped her.

825
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,718
I put my foot out
and it just landed on her pussy.

826
00:44:05,444 --> 00:44:07,757
Alice.
She filed a report
with the campus police

827
00:44:07,895 --> 00:44:09,690
and now
I'm temporarily banned.

828
00:44:13,624 --> 00:44:16,904
I mean, there's obviously
something wrong with me, right?

829
00:44:18,526 --> 00:44:19,423
Mm...

830
00:44:20,770 --> 00:44:23,842
I'm gonna go to New York
for a while,

831
00:44:23,980 --> 00:44:26,430
just to get my head together.

832
00:44:26,568 --> 00:44:28,881
I have some friends
I can stay with, so...

833
00:44:29,019 --> 00:44:30,711
Unbelievable.

834
00:44:30,849 --> 00:44:35,474
Does everyone in Berkeley just
have a hard-on for New York?

835
00:44:35,612 --> 00:44:38,270
Like, why doesn't
the entire Bay Area pack up

836
00:44:38,408 --> 00:44:41,549
and move over to New York City
and call it a day?

837
00:44:43,482 --> 00:44:45,173
That's your takeaway?

838
00:44:46,519 --> 00:44:48,694
After everything
I just said?

839
00:44:48,832 --> 00:44:50,213
- Sorry.
- Listen,

840
00:44:50,351 --> 00:44:52,871
maybe you could
come with me.

841
00:44:53,009 --> 00:44:55,563
It could be good for us.
We could start fresh.

842
00:44:57,220 --> 00:44:59,740
You're not really going.
I can tell, you're just drunk.

843
00:44:59,878 --> 00:45:01,120
I already booked my flight.

844
00:45:03,536 --> 00:45:04,572
I leave on Tuesday.

845
00:45:07,851 --> 00:45:10,992
I'm sorry. It sucks. I know
you guys are really close.

846
00:45:11,130 --> 00:45:12,269
Yeah.

847
00:45:12,407 --> 00:45:13,512
But at least it's not
like she's--

848
00:45:13,650 --> 00:45:16,170
I think she's making
a mistake, you know?

849
00:45:16,308 --> 00:45:18,759
She runs away from shit.
That's her thing.

850
00:45:23,142 --> 00:45:24,903
You see the way
that guy looked at us?

851
00:45:25,041 --> 00:45:27,491
Who, what?
What are you talking about?

852
00:45:27,629 --> 00:45:29,252
Guy over there.
Did you see that?

853
00:45:29,390 --> 00:45:31,737
He's, like,
openly judging me.

854
00:45:31,875 --> 00:45:33,083
Judging you? For what?

855
00:45:34,222 --> 00:45:35,879
You know, us.

856
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:37,743
Come on.

857
00:45:37,881 --> 00:45:39,780
This isn't 1949.

858
00:45:39,918 --> 00:45:42,541
Okay, either that
or he had "white girl envy."

859
00:45:42,679 --> 00:45:46,338
Maybe it was more like,
"Good job."

860
00:45:46,476 --> 00:45:48,340
- Ew.
- I'm joking.

861
00:45:48,478 --> 00:45:50,031
Who the hell knows
why he was looking at us?

862
00:45:50,169 --> 00:45:52,378
Is that what I am?

863
00:45:52,516 --> 00:45:54,518
- What?
- A "white girl"?

864
00:45:54,656 --> 00:45:57,245
Well, not just that.

865
00:45:57,383 --> 00:46:00,214
Look, I'm sorry, okay?
I was just--

866
00:46:00,352 --> 00:46:01,698
Just what?

867
00:46:03,769 --> 00:46:06,427
You are so incredibly beautiful.

868
00:46:06,565 --> 00:46:10,224
I just assume that every guy
we pass hates my fucking guts.

869
00:46:14,953 --> 00:46:16,540
Okay.

870
00:46:16,678 --> 00:46:18,542
- That was pathetic, Ben, really.
- It's true.

871
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,234
Yeah, yeah. Okay.

872
00:46:20,372 --> 00:46:22,892
<i>You say you'd just
let it all go,</i>

873
00:46:23,030 --> 00:46:25,411
<i>and didn't we have
a good time?</i>

874
00:46:25,549 --> 00:46:28,035
<i>You liked making love to me,
didn't you?</i>

875
00:46:28,173 --> 00:46:29,381
<i>Yes, I did.</i>

876
00:46:29,519 --> 00:46:31,693
<i>So you see there,
that's good, isn't it?</i>

877
00:46:31,832 --> 00:46:34,006
<i>And I thought you
were crazy, didn't I?</i>

878
00:46:58,479 --> 00:47:00,861
<i>Moshi-Moshi. This is Miko.
Leave me a message.</i>

879
00:47:09,283 --> 00:47:11,043
So I'm sure
you're all wondering

880
00:47:11,181 --> 00:47:13,770
why I've asked you
to gather here.

881
00:47:13,908 --> 00:47:16,531
I'm afraid I have
some disappointing news.

882
00:47:22,537 --> 00:47:24,298
The... AUTUMN: Sorry!

883
00:47:24,436 --> 00:47:29,751
...inspectors have deemed the
building structurally unsound,

884
00:47:29,890 --> 00:47:33,997
and as you are probably aware,

885
00:47:34,135 --> 00:47:38,036
ticket sales haven't really
been what they used to be.

886
00:47:38,174 --> 00:47:42,316
So it looks like
we're gonna have to shut down.

887
00:47:42,454 --> 00:47:44,905
Can you put your phone away?

888
00:47:49,047 --> 00:47:50,289
I'm really sorry, guys.

889
00:47:52,774 --> 00:47:55,053
I know how much
this place means to all of us.

890
00:47:56,571 --> 00:47:57,952
So when we find out

891
00:47:58,090 --> 00:48:00,403
when our last day's gonna be,
I will--

892
00:48:02,094 --> 00:48:03,751
Yeah, Gene.

893
00:48:06,167 --> 00:48:07,686
Greetings, everyone.

894
00:48:07,824 --> 00:48:09,032
I just wanted
to let you all know

895
00:48:09,170 --> 00:48:10,861
that I have recently
accepted a job

896
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,106
as assistant manager
at the E-Flix Multiplex.

897
00:48:14,244 --> 00:48:18,628
And more to the point,
we are currently hiring.

898
00:48:18,766 --> 00:48:20,285
Danny, we're looking
for a projectionist.

899
00:48:20,423 --> 00:48:21,803
- I'm in.
Okay, yeah--

900
00:48:21,942 --> 00:48:24,323
Unh! If anyone else
has any interest

901
00:48:24,461 --> 00:48:26,636
and/or further query
about the job,

902
00:48:26,774 --> 00:48:28,949
I will be out
in the lobby imminently.

903
00:48:33,608 --> 00:48:35,679
Lamont, are we gonna keep
hanging out?

904
00:48:35,817 --> 00:48:37,129
Yeah. I'm gonna work for Gene.

905
00:48:37,267 --> 00:48:38,130
I would work for Gene.

906
00:48:46,104 --> 00:48:47,864
Um...

907
00:48:48,002 --> 00:48:50,073
Okay, so hey. I, um...

908
00:48:51,454 --> 00:48:52,524
need to talk to you.

909
00:48:54,181 --> 00:48:56,838
Whenever someone says that,
it always means:

910
00:48:56,977 --> 00:48:58,944
"I'm about
to really bum you out."

911
00:48:59,082 --> 00:49:00,946
Yeah. Maybe.

912
00:49:01,809 --> 00:49:03,984
Um-- It's about Pilar.

913
00:49:06,020 --> 00:49:07,711
What about her?

914
00:49:07,849 --> 00:49:10,714
Well, she's been doing research
in Ecuador,

915
00:49:10,852 --> 00:49:15,374
and I wasn't exactly sure
where we stood when she left.

916
00:49:15,512 --> 00:49:18,515
And now she's back.

917
00:49:18,653 --> 00:49:19,551
Yeah.

918
00:49:26,178 --> 00:49:27,041
What?

919
00:49:28,767 --> 00:49:31,804
Just seems kind of deceptive.

920
00:49:31,942 --> 00:49:34,669
You had made it clear
that you two had broken up.

921
00:49:34,807 --> 00:49:37,258
It would've been nice to know
I was the backup plan.

922
00:49:37,396 --> 00:49:38,708
Yeah. I know.

923
00:49:38,846 --> 00:49:42,712
I'm sorry. It's like a--
It's a problem of mine.

924
00:49:42,850 --> 00:49:45,025
I'm not very good
at being alone.

925
00:49:45,163 --> 00:49:47,958
Really? That's strange
'cause I love being alone.

926
00:49:48,097 --> 00:49:49,615
Only thing I love
more than being alone

927
00:49:49,753 --> 00:49:52,722
- is getting strung along.
- Okay, wow. Ben,

928
00:49:52,860 --> 00:49:55,069
it's been, like,
a few weeks, all right?

929
00:49:55,207 --> 00:49:57,761
You didn't, like,
waste your whole life on me.

930
00:49:59,177 --> 00:50:00,971
That's great.

931
00:50:01,110 --> 00:50:03,526
Have fun back on the other side
of the fence.

932
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:09,532
I should go.

933
00:50:12,742 --> 00:50:14,951
Hey. Maybe quit smoking too.

934
00:50:16,573 --> 00:50:17,885
I mean,
who still smokes?

935
00:50:21,613 --> 00:50:22,959
Listen, Ben,

936
00:50:23,097 --> 00:50:24,443
I know you're gonna
want to blame this

937
00:50:24,581 --> 00:50:27,895
on society
or on my sexuality

938
00:50:28,033 --> 00:50:30,656
or on your race or whatever.

939
00:50:30,794 --> 00:50:33,694
But one day,
I hope you'll understand

940
00:50:33,832 --> 00:50:35,799
that this really is
just about you.

Hi. It's me. Again. Um--

955
00:51:49,494 --> 00:51:51,012
I don't know
if there's a problem

956
00:51:51,151 --> 00:51:52,738
with your voicemail
or something,

957
00:51:52,876 --> 00:51:55,120
but if you get this,
can you give me a call?

958
00:51:55,258 --> 00:51:56,811
Let me know if you're okay, maybe.

959
00:51:59,297 --> 00:52:01,057
I actually know that you're okay

960
00:52:01,195 --> 00:52:02,990
because you keep
posting pictures

961
00:52:03,128 --> 00:52:06,373
of all the fucking delightful
food you're eating.

962
00:52:06,511 --> 00:52:08,098
So if you could do me
the courtesy

963
00:52:08,237 --> 00:52:10,446
of calling me back,
you know, just--

964
00:52:10,584 --> 00:52:12,482
That would be greatly appreciated.

965
00:52:15,796 --> 00:52:16,693
Anyway...

966
00:52:18,902 --> 00:52:22,147
Uh... I know
you're probably busy.

967
00:52:22,285 --> 00:52:27,187
So give me a call back
when you can.

968
00:52:28,705 --> 00:52:30,017
Love you.

969
00:52:31,984 --> 00:52:32,882
Fuck!

970
00:52:40,890 --> 00:52:42,547
What?

971
00:52:42,685 --> 00:52:45,170
<i>Nice to hear
from you too, asshole.</i>

972
00:52:45,308 --> 00:52:46,723
Sorry.

973
00:52:46,861 --> 00:52:49,070
<i>What's up?</i> I had, like, three minutes

974
00:52:49,209 --> 00:52:51,935
with nothing to do, so I
thought I'd give you a call.

975
00:52:53,143 --> 00:52:56,077
Well, here I am.

976
00:52:56,216 --> 00:52:58,045
Oh, my God. You sound so sad.

977
00:52:58,183 --> 00:52:59,598
Did you scratch
one of your DVDs?

978
00:52:59,736 --> 00:53:00,668
Listen...

979
00:53:02,877 --> 00:53:04,085
if I came out there...

980
00:53:06,433 --> 00:53:09,229
could I maybe stay with you
for a little while?

981
00:53:09,367 --> 00:53:12,093
Holy shit.
Is this your rock bottom?

982
00:53:13,578 --> 00:53:15,338
- <i>High school was my rock bottom.
- Right.</i>

983
00:53:15,476 --> 00:53:18,099
<i>And you had
nowhere to go but up. Ha, ha.</i>

984
00:53:37,153 --> 00:53:38,085
Hey.

985
00:53:40,467 --> 00:53:41,675
Are you serious?

986
00:53:44,091 --> 00:53:46,852
I can't believe you're actually
in New York, your personal hell.

987
00:53:46,990 --> 00:53:48,785
- I hate it already.
- Oh!

988
00:53:48,923 --> 00:53:50,511
Before I forget.

989
00:53:50,649 --> 00:53:52,996
Front door and apartment door.

990
00:53:53,134 --> 00:53:54,964
Yeah, Meredith wants you
to feel free

991
00:53:55,102 --> 00:53:56,966
to come and go
at your leisure.

992
00:53:57,104 --> 00:53:59,071
- Who?
- Meredith.

993
00:54:00,487 --> 00:54:03,662
Meredith Ames?
Come on, I told you about her!

994
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,285
I--It's her apartment.

995
00:54:05,423 --> 00:54:07,321
I thought you came out here
to clear your head.

996
00:54:07,459 --> 00:54:08,633
I did.

997
00:54:08,771 --> 00:54:11,498
And then I went to a party
and met Meredith

998
00:54:11,636 --> 00:54:14,259
and went home with her,
and I've been there ever since.

999
00:54:14,397 --> 00:54:15,295
Unbelievable.

1000
00:54:18,539 --> 00:54:20,438
So when are you
gonna call her?

1001
00:54:21,646 --> 00:54:22,509
Who?

1002
00:54:24,131 --> 00:54:25,028
"Who."

1003
00:54:25,995 --> 00:54:27,997
- Yeah, who?
- Ha!

1004
00:54:28,963 --> 00:54:30,827
Babe? We're home.

1005
00:54:30,965 --> 00:54:33,174
Hey! I'll just be out
in a second.

1006
00:54:36,833 --> 00:54:38,179
- Nice place.
- I know.

1007
00:54:38,318 --> 00:54:40,112
It's like a grown-up
lives here, right?

1008
00:54:40,250 --> 00:54:43,426
Hi. This must be
the infamous Ben Tagawa.

1009
00:54:43,564 --> 00:54:45,739
- Hi. Great to meet you.
- Oh, please.

1010
00:54:45,877 --> 00:54:47,292
Feel like I know you already.

1011
00:54:47,430 --> 00:54:48,776
She talks about you incessantly.

1012
00:54:48,914 --> 00:54:49,812
Oh, God.

1013
00:54:49,950 --> 00:54:51,296
- She does.
- Yeah, I do.

1014
00:54:51,434 --> 00:54:53,160
To be honest, I probably
know a lot more

1015
00:54:53,298 --> 00:54:55,231
about you than I should.
She told me--

1016
00:54:55,369 --> 00:54:57,889
I'm actually attracted
to women of all races.

1017
00:55:00,857 --> 00:55:02,825
- Good to know.
- No, wait. No, I'm--

1018
00:55:02,963 --> 00:55:04,551
I'm sorry.
I thought that's what she--

1019
00:55:04,689 --> 00:55:06,069
It's really funny
when he flails.

1020
00:55:06,207 --> 00:55:07,657
I'm sorry I don't have
a room for you, Ben,

1021
00:55:07,795 --> 00:55:09,141
but the sofa's
pretty comfy.

1022
00:55:09,279 --> 00:55:10,660
No, no. That's fine.

1023
00:55:10,798 --> 00:55:12,766
I could actually
easily stay at a hotel.

1024
00:55:12,904 --> 00:55:14,768
- You can't afford that.
- I don't wanna impose.

1025
00:55:14,906 --> 00:55:17,529
The more, the merrier.
It'll be like a slumber party.

1026
00:55:17,667 --> 00:55:19,117
Oh, babe, don't say that.

1027
00:55:19,255 --> 00:55:21,637
He'll think he's getting
some hot three-way action.

1028
00:55:21,775 --> 00:55:22,638
Oh, God.

1029
00:55:22,776 --> 00:55:24,260
No. I--Yeah. I know.

1030
00:55:24,398 --> 00:55:26,607
I'm not-- I don't-- I'm very--Yeah.

1031
00:55:26,745 --> 00:55:28,885
He wants it.
All men are trash.

1032
00:55:29,023 --> 00:55:31,440
The couch is wonderful.

1033
00:55:32,889 --> 00:55:34,443
You brought out the fancy shit.

1034
00:55:34,581 --> 00:55:36,168
Which one is this?

1035
00:55:36,306 --> 00:55:38,723
Okay.
So this is a goat Gouda,

1036
00:55:38,861 --> 00:55:41,450
and this is
a Delice de Bourgogne.

1037
00:55:41,588 --> 00:55:46,420
Ooh! Delice de okay.
To the gracious hostess.

1038
00:55:46,558 --> 00:55:49,458
Thank you.
It's good to be here.

1039
00:55:49,596 --> 00:55:52,392
So Alice tells me
you're involved in the theater.

1040
00:55:53,703 --> 00:55:55,498
Oh, is that--?

1041
00:55:55,636 --> 00:55:58,501
I manage a crappy movie theater.
Or at least, I used to.

1042
00:55:58,639 --> 00:56:01,435
Right. Sorry, I knew that.
Not that it's crappy.

1043
00:56:01,573 --> 00:56:02,712
I knew it was a movie--

1044
00:56:02,850 --> 00:56:04,300
Meredith is working
on her novel.

1045
00:56:04,438 --> 00:56:06,164
Well, I mean,
that's what I say

1046
00:56:06,302 --> 00:56:07,752
to avoid the
very real possibility

1047
00:56:07,890 --> 00:56:09,098
that I might just be
a teacher.

1048
00:56:09,236 --> 00:56:11,583
Well,
a professor at Barnard.

1049
00:56:11,721 --> 00:56:13,378
You're really trading up.
I'm impressed.

1050
00:56:13,516 --> 00:56:15,173
Yeah, I did.
Listen to her.

1051
00:56:15,311 --> 00:56:17,313
It's like living
with Mary Poppins.

1052
00:56:17,451 --> 00:56:18,935
Oh, my God.

1053
00:56:20,937 --> 00:56:24,009
What do you guys have planned
for tomorrow? I've got to work.

1054
00:56:24,147 --> 00:56:27,634
Well, Ben's here basically to
stalk his ex-girlfriend, so...

1055
00:56:27,772 --> 00:56:30,360
Not my ex-girlfriend.
We're just taking some time off.

1056
00:56:30,499 --> 00:56:32,293
If you were in a dysfunctional,
long-term relationship...

1057
00:56:32,432 --> 00:56:33,812
Please
don't call it that.

1058
00:56:33,950 --> 00:56:36,884
...and your partner says
she's "taking some time off"

1059
00:56:37,022 --> 00:56:39,369
and moves across the country... For an internship.

1060
00:56:39,508 --> 00:56:42,511
...you'd assume-- I mean,
that's a breakup, right?

1061
00:56:42,649 --> 00:56:44,823
- How were things when she left?
- Terrible.

1062
00:56:44,961 --> 00:56:46,169
No, not terrible.

1063
00:56:46,307 --> 00:56:47,826
We were drifting apart
a little bit,

1064
00:56:47,964 --> 00:56:49,207
and we were...

1065
00:56:50,277 --> 00:56:51,727
definitely fighting a lot.

1066
00:56:53,176 --> 00:56:55,144
You know, otherwise...

1067
00:56:55,282 --> 00:56:57,284
I think the drifting is worse
than the fighting.

1068
00:56:57,422 --> 00:56:59,389
Alice and I have had
our share of fights already,

1069
00:56:59,528 --> 00:57:01,115
but they've been
really productive.

1070
00:57:01,253 --> 00:57:04,671
Oh, Alice, you're now having
productive fights.

1071
00:57:04,809 --> 00:57:06,673
Yeah, Ben.
It's called maturity.

1072
00:57:06,811 --> 00:57:09,089
I can give you some pointers
when you're ready.

1073
00:57:09,227 --> 00:57:10,470
So question for you.

1074
00:57:10,608 --> 00:57:12,057
When you have
these productive fights,

1075
00:57:12,195 --> 00:57:13,783
did she ever kick you
in the pussy?

1076
00:57:16,683 --> 00:57:20,031
Uh... I think I'd remember
if she did.

1077
00:57:20,169 --> 00:57:21,308
Just ignore him.

1078
00:57:21,446 --> 00:57:23,379
That's a pretty heavy thing
to say.

1079
00:57:23,517 --> 00:57:25,761
No! No, no.
That's not my phrase.

1080
00:57:25,899 --> 00:57:28,073
That's actually something
she said when she got mad--

1081
00:57:28,211 --> 00:57:29,178
Let it go, Ben.

1082
00:57:42,467 --> 00:57:43,503
Anything you wanna say?

1083
00:57:47,403 --> 00:57:49,716
The bagels in New York
are really better.

1084
00:57:52,339 --> 00:57:55,584
Sorry. I guess she doesn't
really get our sense of humor.

1085
00:57:55,722 --> 00:57:57,517
- Not about her.
- I just went out on a limb--

1086
00:57:57,655 --> 00:58:00,589
Let me clarify.
This is different.

1087
00:58:00,727 --> 00:58:04,006
I really like this one.
I mean, she's perfect for me.

1088
00:58:04,144 --> 00:58:06,008
Oh, you guys
are still in that phase.

1089
00:58:06,146 --> 00:58:07,561
- It's cute.
- Ben, I'm serious, okay?

1090
00:58:07,699 --> 00:58:09,529
This is finally a chance for me

1091
00:58:09,667 --> 00:58:12,221
to climb out of that hole
I've been living in.

1092
00:58:12,359 --> 00:58:15,776
And to be, you know,
a real adult human, for once.

1093
00:58:15,914 --> 00:58:19,228
So can we at least attempt
to not fuck this up for me?

1094
00:58:22,852 --> 00:58:23,715
Okay.

1095
00:58:28,548 --> 00:58:31,412
- You're more fun in California.
- You're about the same.

1096
00:58:36,141 --> 00:58:38,454
See, you can't even tell
anything from this.

1097
00:58:38,592 --> 00:58:39,731
It's, like, food...

1098
00:58:40,939 --> 00:58:42,631
more food.

1099
00:58:42,769 --> 00:58:43,632
Let me see.

1100
00:58:47,532 --> 00:58:49,327
Who's LeonDesigns212,

1101
00:58:49,465 --> 00:58:51,467
and why's he liking
all of her pics?

1102
00:58:54,608 --> 00:58:56,230
Holy shit!

1103
00:58:56,368 --> 00:58:57,438
What the fuck?

1104
00:59:01,063 --> 00:59:03,134
It's definitely her, right?

1105
00:59:03,272 --> 00:59:05,481
I mean, I know all Asian girls
look the same to you.

1106
00:59:05,619 --> 00:59:09,312
Will you shut up for a minute
while I try to process this?

1107
00:59:10,797 --> 00:59:13,454
God, I had no idea
how hot she was.

1108
00:59:13,593 --> 00:59:15,284
- Dude, you fucked up.
- I said, shut up.

1109
00:59:22,222 --> 00:59:23,672
Can I help you?

1110
00:59:23,810 --> 00:59:26,364
We were just curious
about the photos in the window.

1111
00:59:26,502 --> 00:59:29,505
Aren't they totally amazing?

1112
00:59:29,643 --> 00:59:33,129
Yeah. You know anything about
them? Where they came from?

1113
00:59:33,267 --> 00:59:36,029
Oh, Leon handles
all the promo himself.

1114
00:59:36,167 --> 00:59:38,272
And Leon is...?

1115
00:59:38,410 --> 00:59:40,689
Leon Alexander.

1116
00:59:41,759 --> 00:59:43,105
He designs the clothes.

1117
00:59:44,831 --> 00:59:46,453
This is his boutique.

1118
00:59:48,110 --> 00:59:49,974
Ah. Humility.

1119
00:59:50,112 --> 00:59:52,010
Uh--

1120
00:59:52,148 --> 00:59:54,254
What about the model
on the screen?

1121
00:59:54,392 --> 00:59:56,014
Do you know
anything about her?

1122
00:59:56,152 --> 00:59:57,775
He finds them
from all over.

1123
00:59:57,913 --> 01:00:00,018
He found his last model
at a Chipotle.

1124
01:00:00,156 --> 01:00:01,468
How many are there?

1125
01:00:01,606 --> 01:00:03,539
Do you have questions
about the clothes?

1126
01:00:03,677 --> 01:00:05,196
Is this a cult?

1127
01:00:07,439 --> 01:00:08,682
How are you not mad right now?

1128
01:00:08,820 --> 01:00:10,788
So she wanted
to try modeling or whatever.

1129
01:00:10,926 --> 01:00:12,513
She probably thought
I wouldn't be supportive

1130
01:00:12,652 --> 01:00:14,688
- if she told me about it.
- And she'd be wrong?

1131
01:00:14,826 --> 01:00:17,070
No, I would've been
a total prick about it.

1132
01:00:17,208 --> 01:00:19,382
In a way,
I forced her to lie.

1133
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,384
It's just so weird
to think of her doing that.

1134
01:00:21,522 --> 01:00:24,146
It's like if I found out
you were a mime.

1135
01:00:24,284 --> 01:00:26,735
Don't knock mimes.
Chaplin was a mime.

1136
01:00:26,873 --> 01:00:29,254
When are you gonna see her?
You did come to see her, right?

1137
01:00:29,392 --> 01:00:32,879
- I have a plan for tomorrow.
- Oh, really? This, I gotta see.

1138
01:00:38,781 --> 01:00:41,059
- This is so unlike you.
- That's the point.

1139
01:00:53,140 --> 01:00:54,038
Hi.

1140
01:00:56,661 --> 01:00:57,973
You shouldn't have.

1141
01:00:58,111 --> 01:01:00,492
Uh, I'm--
I'm here to see Miko.

1142
01:01:01,908 --> 01:01:04,945
Who?
Miko Higashi.
She's an intern here.

1143
01:01:05,083 --> 01:01:07,568
I'm the only intern
here right now.

1144
01:01:07,707 --> 01:01:10,054
Okay, do you know
when she's gonna be back?

1145
01:01:10,192 --> 01:01:14,023
Look, there is
only one intern working here

1146
01:01:14,161 --> 01:01:17,061
at this point in time,
and you're looking at him.

1147
01:01:17,199 --> 01:01:19,097
I hope you're not
being catfished.

1148
01:01:19,235 --> 01:01:20,650
That would suck.

1149
01:01:20,789 --> 01:01:24,275
Can you check if she
maybe worked here before you?

1150
01:01:24,413 --> 01:01:26,760
I'm not supposed to give out
that kind of information.

1151
01:01:26,898 --> 01:01:28,417
Please.

1152
01:01:28,555 --> 01:01:30,695
Actually,
what the fuck do I care?

1153
01:01:36,943 --> 01:01:37,875
No.

1154
01:01:41,188 --> 01:01:42,569
Fuck!

1155
01:01:42,707 --> 01:01:43,777
What? Ben.

1156
01:01:46,607 --> 01:01:48,333
Well, so much
for my big move.

1157
01:01:48,471 --> 01:01:50,301
- Fucking lying bitch.
- Don't.

1158
01:01:51,578 --> 01:01:53,476
So now what?

1159
01:01:53,614 --> 01:01:54,615
Can I use your phone?

1160
01:01:55,547 --> 01:01:56,790
What's wrong with yours?

1161
01:01:56,928 --> 01:01:58,309
I tried that.

1162
01:02:08,457 --> 01:02:10,873
- Hello?
<i>Hey, it's me.</i>

1163
01:02:11,874 --> 01:02:13,911
Oh. Hi.

1164
01:02:14,049 --> 01:02:16,120
<i>What's this number
you're calling from?</i>

1165
01:02:16,258 --> 01:02:20,434
Oh, right. I'm out with Alice,
and I forgot my phone at home.

1166
01:02:20,572 --> 01:02:22,747
<i>I'm sorry.</i>

1167
01:02:22,885 --> 01:02:25,854
I should've called. I just...

1168
01:02:25,992 --> 01:02:27,476
I felt like we weren't
communicating very well

1169
01:02:27,614 --> 01:02:29,133
over the phone and--

1170
01:02:29,271 --> 01:02:32,067
<i>No, no, no, it's fine.
I know you're busy.</i>

1171
01:02:33,862 --> 01:02:35,725
Well, we should talk.

1172
01:02:35,864 --> 01:02:38,659
I'm in the middle
of something at work right now,

1173
01:02:38,798 --> 01:02:40,420
<i>but--</i> You mean, the internship?

1174
01:02:40,558 --> 01:02:41,973
<i>Uh-huh.</i>

1175
01:02:42,111 --> 01:02:44,665
I will call you later tonight.

1176
01:02:44,804 --> 01:02:46,736
<i>Cool. Actually, wait.</i>

1177
01:02:46,875 --> 01:02:48,566
The reason I called is because

1178
01:02:48,704 --> 01:02:50,568
we're at the post office
right now.

1179
01:02:50,706 --> 01:02:53,053
<i>You got some important-looking
mail, some tax stuff.</i>

1180
01:02:53,191 --> 01:02:54,814
And I wanted to forward it,

1181
01:02:54,952 --> 01:02:57,057
but I didn't know
where to send it to.

1182
01:02:58,541 --> 01:02:59,819
Yeah, I got a pen.

1183
01:03:01,682 --> 01:03:03,167
Yeah, got it.

1184
01:03:07,861 --> 01:03:10,553
I can't believe she can afford
to live around here.

1185
01:03:10,691 --> 01:03:13,349
Yeah, she must be really dipping
into that old trust fund.

1186
01:03:13,487 --> 01:03:16,145
God, I'd give anything to have
a rich, absent, alcoholic dad

1187
01:03:16,283 --> 01:03:17,733
that tries to buy my love.

1188
01:03:17,871 --> 01:03:21,288
- Well, which one is it?
- Relax. Got it all staked out.

1189
01:03:24,982 --> 01:03:26,707
So listen.

1190
01:03:26,846 --> 01:03:31,022
I'm thinking about
maybe not going back to school.

1191
01:03:32,955 --> 01:03:33,887
What?

1192
01:03:34,025 --> 01:03:35,475
When I'm honest with myself,

1193
01:03:35,613 --> 01:03:37,477
there's only one reason
why I even wanted

1194
01:03:37,615 --> 01:03:39,789
to go to grad school
to begin with.

1195
01:03:39,928 --> 01:03:40,929
The poon.

1196
01:03:41,067 --> 01:03:42,378
No, idiot.

1197
01:03:42,516 --> 01:03:43,690
My parents!

1198
01:03:43,828 --> 01:03:46,520
"The poon"?
How old are you?

1199
01:03:48,005 --> 01:03:49,627
I've just been living
my whole life,

1200
01:03:49,765 --> 01:03:51,525
thinking it's possible
to placate them,

1201
01:03:51,663 --> 01:03:53,769
but it's obviously not.

1202
01:03:53,907 --> 01:03:57,566
So your solution is to give up
and hide out here in New York?

1203
01:03:57,704 --> 01:03:58,601
Maybe.

1204
01:04:00,534 --> 01:04:02,743
At least I'd be happy.

1205
01:04:02,882 --> 01:04:06,264
You could maybe
just be honest with them.

1206
01:04:07,231 --> 01:04:08,508
Ha!

1207
01:04:09,336 --> 01:04:10,234
Sorry.

1208
01:04:11,752 --> 01:04:13,237
What?

1209
01:04:13,375 --> 01:04:14,963
No.

1210
01:04:15,101 --> 01:04:16,412
No, never.

1211
01:04:17,517 --> 01:04:18,414
Oh, shit.

1212
01:04:19,899 --> 01:04:21,417
Are you fucking with me?
What do we do?

1213
01:04:21,555 --> 01:04:23,005
- Shit.
- What do we do?

1214
01:04:23,143 --> 01:04:24,973
It's that designer prick.
Come on.

1215
01:04:25,111 --> 01:04:26,595
- Wait.
- Come on. Come on.

1216
01:04:36,708 --> 01:04:38,848
He's too tall, way too tall.

1217
01:04:42,714 --> 01:04:44,854
Hey, how y'all doing?

1218
01:04:44,993 --> 01:04:47,098
What the fuck
is she doing with that guy?

1219
01:04:52,448 --> 01:04:54,312
- You look beautiful.
- Nice.

1220
01:04:56,107 --> 01:04:57,281
Go, go, go.

1221
01:05:03,804 --> 01:05:05,047
What are they doing?

1222
01:05:06,531 --> 01:05:08,257
They're being
fucking adorable.

1223
01:05:12,054 --> 01:05:13,469
Shit.

1224
01:05:13,607 --> 01:05:14,505
Let's go.

1225
01:05:34,801 --> 01:05:35,975
Wow.

1226
01:05:45,846 --> 01:05:48,642
- What are they saying?
- How the fuck would I know?

1227
01:05:50,748 --> 01:05:53,509
I can't believe
she's with a fucking rice king.

1228
01:05:53,647 --> 01:05:56,685
We don't necessarily know--He was speaking Japanese.

1229
01:05:56,823 --> 01:06:01,828
He was a white guy with a big
beard who was speaking Japanese.

1230
01:06:01,966 --> 01:06:03,174
What does the big beard

1231
01:06:03,312 --> 01:06:04,796
- have to do with anything?
- I don't know!

1232
01:06:04,934 --> 01:06:06,212
I can see why you're upset,

1233
01:06:06,350 --> 01:06:07,558
but there's nothing wrong

1234
01:06:07,696 --> 01:06:08,800
with someone having a type.

1235
01:06:08,938 --> 01:06:10,423
If there's real love
between two people--

1236
01:06:10,561 --> 01:06:15,083
Yeah, yeah. But can we be
honest, between us, right?

1237
01:06:15,221 --> 01:06:17,326
You see a white guy
with an Asian girl,

1238
01:06:17,464 --> 01:06:19,259
- and what do you think?
- Oh, boy.

1239
01:06:19,397 --> 01:06:21,054
And when you see an Asian man

1240
01:06:21,192 --> 01:06:22,849
with a white woman,
you think...?

1241
01:06:22,987 --> 01:06:24,333
Good for him.

1242
01:06:24,471 --> 01:06:25,921
Good for both of them.

1243
01:06:26,059 --> 01:06:29,028
And you don't second-guess
that relationship.

1244
01:06:29,166 --> 01:06:31,513
You're like, "Wow,
he must be a really cool guy,

1245
01:06:31,651 --> 01:06:34,240
and she is really evolved."

1246
01:06:36,552 --> 01:06:39,245
Jesus.
What year is he living in?

1247
01:06:39,383 --> 01:06:41,557
I just think there's
something creepy

1248
01:06:41,695 --> 01:06:45,596
about an older white guy who's
horny for skinny Asian girls.

1249
01:06:45,734 --> 01:06:47,736
I mean,
what's that all about?

1250
01:06:47,874 --> 01:06:49,807
I actually don't think
it's about anything.

1251
01:06:49,945 --> 01:06:51,464
Oh, come on, Meredith.

1252
01:06:51,602 --> 01:06:53,707
If you're implying
an undercurrent of what?

1253
01:06:53,845 --> 01:06:55,571
Fetishism? Pedophilia?

1254
01:06:55,709 --> 01:06:57,780
Then what's the flip side
to that line of thinking?

1255
01:06:57,918 --> 01:06:59,334
I don't know what.

1256
01:06:59,472 --> 01:07:01,508
Is your attraction
to white women

1257
01:07:01,646 --> 01:07:03,407
a sublimated
form of assimilation?

1258
01:07:03,545 --> 01:07:06,513
Are you trying to elevate
yourself in society's eyes by--?

1259
01:07:06,651 --> 01:07:08,343
- Where'd that come from?
- Sorry, dude.

1260
01:07:08,481 --> 01:07:10,310
Don't turn this
into a personal attack on me.

1261
01:07:10,448 --> 01:07:12,312
No, no, no. It's not an attack.

1262
01:07:12,450 --> 01:07:14,142
I just think it gets tricky

1263
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,316
when you start making
moralistic generalizations

1264
01:07:16,454 --> 01:07:18,594
based on your own wounded ego.

1265
01:07:19,699 --> 01:07:20,907
You don't even know me.

1266
01:07:21,045 --> 01:07:22,943
Babe, he's had
a hard day, you know?

1267
01:07:23,082 --> 01:07:24,738
I know. I know.
And I'm sorry.

1268
01:07:24,876 --> 01:07:27,051
I just don't know if it's
appropriate for someone,

1269
01:07:27,189 --> 01:07:28,742
particularly a cishet male,

1270
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,504
to ascribe negative implications
to other people's sexuality.

1271
01:07:31,642 --> 01:07:34,300
To be clear, I'm 100%

1272
01:07:34,438 --> 01:07:37,096
just talking about rice kings,
okay? I'm not--

1273
01:07:37,234 --> 01:07:39,960
I know you think
you're being funny or whatever,

1274
01:07:40,099 --> 01:07:41,962
but there's a long history
of pejorative slang

1275
01:07:42,101 --> 01:07:44,482
used to demean
the sexuality of "the other."

1276
01:07:44,620 --> 01:07:47,554
Meredith's dad is white, so--But that's beside the point.

1277
01:07:47,692 --> 01:07:49,246
How is that beside the point?

1278
01:07:49,384 --> 01:07:51,489
You don't wanna have
to think about your white dad

1279
01:07:51,627 --> 01:07:53,181
and your Asian mom
getting it on.

1280
01:07:53,319 --> 01:07:56,149
His fetish--
I'm very close
to throwing this in your face.

1281
01:07:56,287 --> 01:07:57,875
Babe.

1282
01:07:58,013 --> 01:08:00,119
- What the fuck?
I'm sorry.

1283
01:08:02,707 --> 01:08:04,019
For a second there,
I thought

1284
01:08:04,157 --> 01:08:05,676
she was gonna kick me
in the pussy.

1285
01:08:08,817 --> 01:08:09,680
Meredith!

1286
01:08:15,513 --> 01:08:16,859
Just because
I laugh at something

1287
01:08:16,997 --> 01:08:18,447
doesn't mean I endorse it.

1288
01:08:18,585 --> 01:08:20,346
I hate to say it,
but you are kind of rigid--

1289
01:08:20,484 --> 01:08:22,796
So it's my problem?
- I did not say that.

1290
01:08:22,934 --> 01:08:25,385
He can rant and spew
all that toxic bullshit

1291
01:08:25,523 --> 01:08:26,524
and I am too rigid?

1292
01:09:12,605 --> 01:09:15,090
Hey! Did you fuck her
in my bed?

1293
01:09:15,228 --> 01:09:17,092
Oh, my God,
Ben, are you crazy?

1294
01:09:17,230 --> 01:09:19,163
Did you take
the shitty photos first

1295
01:09:19,301 --> 01:09:20,716
and then fuck her
in my bed?

1296
01:09:20,854 --> 01:09:22,339
Or did you fuck her in my bed

1297
01:09:22,477 --> 01:09:23,823
and then take
those shitty photos?

1298
01:09:26,239 --> 01:09:28,103
He doesn't understand.

1299
01:09:28,241 --> 01:09:29,829
Oh, God. I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have assumed.

1300
01:09:29,967 --> 01:09:32,038
- But you did.
- I did.

1301
01:09:32,176 --> 01:09:33,902
I did. There's no excuse.

1302
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,180
What is this? You come
all the way here to spy on me?

1303
01:09:36,318 --> 01:09:37,561
Are you that much of an asshole?

1304
01:09:37,699 --> 01:09:39,183
Yeah, I am that much
of an asshole.

1305
01:09:39,321 --> 01:09:40,943
You're not an asshole.

1306
01:09:41,081 --> 01:09:44,395
I understand that this is an
awkward situation for all of us.

1307
01:09:44,533 --> 01:09:46,432
We're not meeting
under the best of terms now.

1308
01:09:46,570 --> 01:09:49,228
Yeah, I prefer
a more formal introduction

1309
01:09:49,366 --> 01:09:52,161
to the guy
who's fucking my girlfriend.

1310
01:09:52,300 --> 01:09:54,474
Okay, let's just take a breath.

1311
01:09:54,612 --> 01:09:56,304
Look, Ben--Don't fucking touch me!

1312
01:09:56,442 --> 01:10:00,791
Oh, really?
You're gonna do Tai Chi on me?

1313
01:10:00,929 --> 01:10:02,310
Look, I'm sorry.

1314
01:10:02,448 --> 01:10:04,450
That's just instinct.
It's just a reflex.

1315
01:10:04,588 --> 01:10:07,107
It's decades of training,
and I'm sorry.

1316
01:10:07,246 --> 01:10:09,144
A martial arts guy?
Really, Miko?

1317
01:10:09,282 --> 01:10:11,284
Okay, just stop it, Ben.
Just stop!

1318
01:10:11,422 --> 01:10:13,355
You know what? You wanna go?
Let's go.

1319
01:10:13,493 --> 01:10:16,531
I'm sure you're dying to do your
version of that Tarantino movie.

1320
01:10:16,669 --> 01:10:18,326
- What?
- That scene, you know,

1321
01:10:18,464 --> 01:10:20,051
where Brad Pitt
kicks Bruce Lee's ass.

1322
01:10:20,189 --> 01:10:22,744
Oh, my God.
I'm sure that's
your wet dream, isn't it?

1323
01:10:22,882 --> 01:10:26,610
No. I mean, overall, yes,
I thought it was a great film.

1324
01:10:26,748 --> 01:10:28,646
But I despise the idea
of aggrandizing

1325
01:10:28,784 --> 01:10:30,165
a fictional
white protagonist

1326
01:10:30,303 --> 01:10:32,926
by denigrating
a real Asian American icon.

1327
01:10:33,064 --> 01:10:35,170
Yes, I understand
there are some aspects of it

1328
01:10:35,308 --> 01:10:36,447
that were based on true--

1329
01:10:36,585 --> 01:10:38,587
Can you shut the fuck up?

1330
01:10:38,725 --> 01:10:42,350
Ben, look, man, I understand--I said, don't!

1331
01:10:42,488 --> 01:10:44,697
- Oh, here he goes.
- I did it again. I did it again.

1332
01:10:44,835 --> 01:10:48,321
I get the feeling that I'm not
making anything better here.

1333
01:10:48,459 --> 01:10:50,150
So I'm gonna step away.

1334
01:10:50,289 --> 01:10:53,878
Why don't you go up to my place,
have a drink, kitchen's yours.

1335
01:10:54,016 --> 01:10:57,744
- Call me if you need anything.
- Okay, I'm gonna call you.

1336
01:11:01,472 --> 01:11:02,818
Sayonara.

1337
01:11:02,956 --> 01:11:06,650
Oh, that's good Japanese.
You're on your way.

1338
01:11:06,788 --> 01:11:07,789
Oh, shut up.

1339
01:11:33,608 --> 01:11:34,712
So this is his place.

1340
01:11:36,542 --> 01:11:37,439
Yep.

1341
01:11:38,992 --> 01:11:39,993
Nice.

1342
01:11:44,135 --> 01:11:47,069
I see that he really likes
his Oriental accessories.

1343
01:11:48,554 --> 01:11:51,004
So you never even had
your own place out here.

1344
01:11:51,142 --> 01:11:55,457
Does he make you pay rent,
or do you just walk on his back?

1345
01:11:55,595 --> 01:11:57,563
Come on, Ben.
What are you doing here?

1346
01:11:57,701 --> 01:12:00,220
You basically came out here
to be with him, right?

1347
01:12:01,774 --> 01:12:04,397
Okay, look.
I owe you an apology, but--

1348
01:12:04,535 --> 01:12:10,507
No, no, no. How does one cross
paths with a Leon Alexander?

1349
01:12:11,784 --> 01:12:14,649
- He was visiting a friend.
- Excuse me?

1350
01:12:14,787 --> 01:12:17,928
He was visiting someone
who had a film in the festival.

1351
01:12:19,274 --> 01:12:22,242
- Oh.
- We met for coffee a few times

1352
01:12:22,381 --> 01:12:23,968
while he was in town,
but it was nothing.

1353
01:12:24,106 --> 01:12:25,798
Can you stop
bullshitting?

1354
01:12:25,936 --> 01:12:27,316
I saw the photos.

1355
01:12:27,455 --> 01:12:30,112
I think I can recognize
our own fucking bed!

1356
01:12:30,250 --> 01:12:31,735
We took a few photos,
but that's it.

1357
01:12:31,873 --> 01:12:34,393
We agreed to wait until
I'd resolved things with you.

1358
01:12:34,531 --> 01:12:36,533
So are you still waiting?

1359
01:12:36,671 --> 01:12:39,536
Because I don't feel resolved,
do you?

1360
01:12:39,674 --> 01:12:42,918
Holy shit. Poor Leon.
The blue balls on that guy.

1361
01:12:43,056 --> 01:12:45,058
Ben, we were taking some time
off. You knew this.

1362
01:12:45,196 --> 01:12:47,716
I just didn't realize
taking some time off

1363
01:12:47,854 --> 01:12:49,891
meant fucking other people!

1364
01:12:53,377 --> 01:12:54,999
You sure about that?

1365
01:12:55,137 --> 01:12:56,242
What are you talking about?

1366
01:12:56,380 --> 01:12:58,624
My friend Koji
saw you holding hands

1367
01:12:58,762 --> 01:13:00,108
with someone
at the flea market.

1368
01:13:00,246 --> 01:13:01,489
She sounded like your type too.

1369
01:13:01,627 --> 01:13:03,180
Stop trying to turn this
around on me.

1370
01:13:03,318 --> 01:13:05,354
All right, look, Ben,
it's fine.

1371
01:13:05,493 --> 01:13:07,529
I think it's obvious
that this has been

1372
01:13:07,667 --> 01:13:09,531
such a good change
for both of us.

1373
01:13:09,669 --> 01:13:11,947
We went about it
in a stupid way,

1374
01:13:12,085 --> 01:13:14,536
but somehow it all worked out
for the best.

1375
01:13:14,674 --> 01:13:16,780
But of all people...

1376
01:13:16,918 --> 01:13:19,334
Miko, a white guy
is one thing, but he--

1377
01:13:19,472 --> 01:13:22,337
He is so clearly
an Asian fetishist.

1378
01:13:22,475 --> 01:13:25,478
Do you realize how insulting
that is to me, Ben?

1379
01:13:25,616 --> 01:13:26,893
That the only reason someone

1380
01:13:27,031 --> 01:13:28,481
could possibly
be attracted to me

1381
01:13:28,619 --> 01:13:30,483
is because of some objectifying
abnormality?

1382
01:13:30,621 --> 01:13:32,209
I didn't say
that was the only reason.

1383
01:13:32,347 --> 01:13:34,694
That says a lot more about you
than it does about me.

1384
01:13:34,832 --> 01:13:37,594
I'm criticizing him, not you.
Can you just not twist my words?

1385
01:13:37,732 --> 01:13:39,699
I know that you think
you're in this position

1386
01:13:39,837 --> 01:13:41,805
to always be judging people,
but you know what?

1387
01:13:41,943 --> 01:13:43,703
You don't know
anything about him.

1388
01:13:43,841 --> 01:13:46,982
And if it really matters to you,
Ben, he's not white.

1389
01:13:48,639 --> 01:13:51,021
What? We're talking about
the same guy?

1390
01:13:52,747 --> 01:13:55,025
He's Jewish
and Indigenous American.

1391
01:14:00,548 --> 01:14:01,514
Okay.

1392
01:14:01,652 --> 01:14:02,860
Oh, wow.

1393
01:14:02,998 --> 01:14:06,070
- That-- That is hilarious.
- Hilarious.

1394
01:14:06,208 --> 01:14:08,003
Did he put that
on his college application?

1395
01:14:08,141 --> 01:14:09,349
I think you should go now.

1396
01:14:12,974 --> 01:14:15,148
How's the internship,
by the way?

1397
01:14:16,046 --> 01:14:16,978
It's great.

1398
01:14:19,359 --> 01:14:21,534
Sticking with your story.
That's nice.

1399
01:14:26,021 --> 01:14:26,988
Ben, wait.

1400
01:14:29,887 --> 01:14:33,650
I should've been more direct
with you a long time ago, and...

1401
01:14:35,065 --> 01:14:37,377
And I apologize
for not doing that.

1402
01:14:39,552 --> 01:14:44,557
But even at my most frustrated,
I felt a lot of pity for you.

1403
01:14:44,695 --> 01:14:47,664
And I realized that
that's how you kept me trapped.

1404
01:14:49,562 --> 01:14:51,909
Stop trying to play
the victim now, Miko.

1405
01:14:52,047 --> 01:14:53,462
It's fucking embarrassing.

1406
01:14:53,601 --> 01:14:56,189
You wanna know
what's embarrassing, Ben?

1407
01:14:56,327 --> 01:14:57,605
Trying to hold on to something

1408
01:14:57,743 --> 01:14:59,952
because you are pathologically
afraid of change.

1409
01:15:00,090 --> 01:15:01,401
That's what you do, Ben.

1410
01:15:01,540 --> 01:15:03,369
And it felt
like fucking death to me.

1411
01:15:03,507 --> 01:15:05,233
So that's my big crime, huh?

1412
01:15:05,371 --> 01:15:08,581
I don't like to give up?
Oh, what a monster I am.

1413
01:15:08,719 --> 01:15:11,722
No, I also think you have
problems with anger, depression,

1414
01:15:11,860 --> 01:15:13,552
your weird self-hatred issues,

1415
01:15:13,690 --> 01:15:16,485
and just the relentless
negativity, Ben!

1416
01:15:16,624 --> 01:15:18,418
You could benefit
from a little self-hatred.

1417
01:15:18,557 --> 01:15:20,800
Your resistance to grow,
to change,

1418
01:15:20,938 --> 01:15:22,146
the way you just give up

1419
01:15:22,284 --> 01:15:24,079
on any sort of career,
it's hostile!

1420
01:15:24,217 --> 01:15:26,288
It's all me doing this to you?

1421
01:15:26,426 --> 01:15:28,463
'Cause you're not at all
self-centered

1422
01:15:28,601 --> 01:15:30,051
or entitled or deceptive.

1423
01:15:30,189 --> 01:15:31,086
Listen to me.

1424
01:15:32,571 --> 01:15:35,746
You never did anything
to make me wanna stay.

1425
01:15:35,884 --> 01:15:38,059
You never even asked me
not to go.

1426
01:15:38,197 --> 01:15:39,612
You just said nothing.

1427
01:15:39,750 --> 01:15:43,133
- And then you resent me for it.
- Are you done?

1428
01:15:43,271 --> 01:15:45,756
Are you done fucking
rationalizing?

1429
01:15:45,894 --> 01:15:47,620
God, because if you are,

1430
01:15:47,758 --> 01:15:49,622
maybe we could actually
have a conversa--

1431
01:15:52,867 --> 01:15:53,730
What?

1432
01:15:56,525 --> 01:15:57,492
Nothing. I just...

1433
01:15:58,562 --> 01:16:00,115
I had the best thought.

1434
01:16:00,909 --> 01:16:02,290
What?

1435
01:16:02,428 --> 01:16:05,362
I never have to listen
to this shit again.

1436
01:16:12,265 --> 01:16:14,716
Wait, wait, Miko. Miko, Miko.
Wait, wait.

1437
01:16:14,854 --> 01:16:16,476
- I need you to go.
- Wait. Okay?

1438
01:16:16,615 --> 01:16:17,857
We just-- We do this.

1439
01:16:17,995 --> 01:16:20,032
We get caught up in the moment,
all right?

1440
01:16:20,170 --> 01:16:23,449
- Can we just take a breather?
- No, Ben. You need to go now.

1441
01:16:34,287 --> 01:16:35,426
Don't do this to me.

1442
01:17:21,576 --> 01:17:24,096
...because everything
is about him!

1443
01:17:25,684 --> 01:17:27,306
...he has opinions.

1444
01:17:27,444 --> 01:17:29,722
I don't care
about his stupid opinions.

1445
01:17:29,860 --> 01:17:32,311
I'm talking about
what he's doing to us.

1446
01:17:32,449 --> 01:17:34,451
Just ignore him.
He's going through a rough time.

1447
01:17:34,589 --> 01:17:37,523
And he wants to blow us up,
so you'll go back home with him.

1448
01:17:37,661 --> 01:17:38,593
Are you serious?

1449
01:17:42,390 --> 01:17:44,150
Meredith's right.

1450
01:17:44,288 --> 01:17:46,912
- What?
- She's right.

1451
01:17:48,085 --> 01:17:50,605
So I'm gonna do

1452
01:17:50,743 --> 01:17:53,125
the most helpful thing
I can think of.

1453
01:17:53,263 --> 01:17:54,920
What are you doing?

1454
01:17:55,058 --> 01:17:58,786
Changing my flight.
I'm gonna go home.

1455
01:17:58,924 --> 01:18:01,616
Ben, no. What?
I don't want
you to misunderstand--

1456
01:18:01,754 --> 01:18:03,583
No, there's no misunderstanding.

1457
01:18:06,483 --> 01:18:08,450
Meredith, I'm sorry you had

1458
01:18:08,588 --> 01:18:10,452
to meet me at this point
in my life.

1459
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:13,939
I mean, I'm sure
you would've hated me anyways.

1460
01:18:14,077 --> 01:18:16,044
- No.
- No, you definitely would've.

1461
01:18:16,182 --> 01:18:17,425
It's true.

1462
01:18:17,563 --> 01:18:20,393
You happened to catch me
at my absolute...

1463
01:18:22,395 --> 01:18:24,328
- Nadir.
- I think it's pronounced "nadir."

1464
01:18:24,466 --> 01:18:26,192
Well, it's, um...

1465
01:18:27,469 --> 01:18:29,230
- Sure. Yeah.
- Right.

1466
01:18:29,368 --> 01:18:31,232
Yeah. No. Sorry.

1467
01:18:32,371 --> 01:18:33,303
Did you see her?

1468
01:18:42,381 --> 01:18:44,072
What's with
all the fucking balloons?

1469
01:18:49,043 --> 01:18:52,149
Speech.
Speech it up!

1470
01:18:52,287 --> 01:18:54,289
<i>Speech! Speech! Speech!</i>

1471
01:18:54,427 --> 01:18:55,981
What? Okay, okay, okay.

1472
01:18:58,086 --> 01:19:01,296
Okay. Thank you for being here.

1473
01:19:01,434 --> 01:19:03,160
I don't know if getting another
year older

1474
01:19:03,298 --> 01:19:05,300
is really something
to celebrate at this point,

1475
01:19:05,438 --> 01:19:08,925
but I will still allow you
to buy me drinks.

1476
01:19:09,063 --> 01:19:11,479
So last month,

1477
01:19:11,617 --> 01:19:14,689
I got dragged to a party
I didn't really want to go to.

1478
01:19:14,827 --> 01:19:17,726
And I got introduced to Alice,

1479
01:19:17,865 --> 01:19:19,728
friend of a friend
from California.

1480
01:19:19,867 --> 01:19:22,248
Even though I didn't really
wanna be introduced to anyone,

1481
01:19:22,386 --> 01:19:24,492
least of all someone
from California.

1482
01:19:24,630 --> 01:19:26,666
Now, I'm gonna say something

1483
01:19:26,805 --> 01:19:29,083
I don't say very often.

1484
01:19:29,221 --> 01:19:30,429
I was wrong.

1485
01:19:30,567 --> 01:19:32,051
I was wrong about the party.

1486
01:19:32,189 --> 01:19:35,330
I was wrong
about getting introduced.

1487
01:19:35,468 --> 01:19:37,850
And as most of you know,

1488
01:19:37,988 --> 01:19:39,818
I've since fallen
head over heels for her.

1489
01:19:39,956 --> 01:19:41,820
Not true.
You don't wear heels.

1490
01:19:43,442 --> 01:19:44,857
No, but listen,

1491
01:19:44,995 --> 01:19:48,412
she's just told me
that's she's moving here,

1492
01:19:48,550 --> 01:19:51,484
and that's honestly the best
present I could imagine.

1493
01:19:52,900 --> 01:19:55,764
Your loss, California.

1494
01:19:55,903 --> 01:19:58,664
So keep buying me drinks,
but buy Alice a drink too

1495
01:19:58,802 --> 01:20:01,184
and welcome her
to her new home.

1496
01:20:01,322 --> 01:20:02,185
Yeah!

1497
01:20:03,358 --> 01:20:04,256
Yes!

1498
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:44,986
Hey. Where you going?

1499
01:20:45,124 --> 01:20:47,609
I'm gonna go back to the
apartment and get packed up.

1500
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,269
I'm not moving just for her,
you know.

1501
01:20:52,407 --> 01:20:55,755
Whatever happens, I'll still be
in the best city in the world.

1502
01:20:55,894 --> 01:20:57,792
Okay. I mean, I disagree.

1503
01:20:57,930 --> 01:20:58,931
Of course you do.

1504
01:21:00,381 --> 01:21:03,591
Look, I'm glad
you're giving it a shot.

1505
01:21:03,729 --> 01:21:07,353
I'll be back next month,
you know, to get my stuff.

1506
01:21:08,389 --> 01:21:09,597
Start planning now.

1507
01:21:09,735 --> 01:21:11,564
We can get a U-Haul
and road trip...

1508
01:21:11,702 --> 01:21:13,946
I don't think
I'm gonna move 3000 miles

1509
01:21:14,084 --> 01:21:16,811
for someone I'm not
having intercourse with.

1510
01:21:17,916 --> 01:21:19,538
Right.

1511
01:21:19,676 --> 01:21:22,748
Speaking of people you're not
having intercourse with...

1512
01:21:24,267 --> 01:21:25,475
is it officially over?

1513
01:21:29,065 --> 01:21:30,273
Yeah.

1514
01:21:30,411 --> 01:21:31,860
So you're not
gonna do that thing

1515
01:21:31,999 --> 01:21:33,517
where you run
through the city

1516
01:21:33,655 --> 01:21:36,520
to make one last heartfelt
gesture to win her back?

1517
01:21:36,658 --> 01:21:37,866
No. No.

1518
01:21:44,839 --> 01:21:48,774
Anyway...
Yeah, I should
get back in there.

1519
01:21:48,912 --> 01:21:51,294
- See you in the morning.
- Yeah.
