Well, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen,
to the New Jersey Mathlympics State Final.
24
00:01:52,083 --> 00:01:53,458
I've seen the best of the best,
25
00:01:53,541 --> 00:01:56,000
but I have never seen anything
like this young man here.
26
00:01:56,083 --> 00:01:57,333
[presenter 1] Remarkable.
27
00:01:57,416 --> 00:01:59,750
Prem Patel of Jersey City
has dominated this contest
28
00:01:59,833 --> 00:02:02,333
- since the very first equation.
- [presenter 2] Absolutely.
29
00:02:02,416 --> 00:02:06,666
Twelve years old, 75 pounds, 5'1",
the kid bleeds numbers.
30
00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:09,750
[chuckles] Now the question, of course,
on everyone's mind here today is,
31
00:02:09,833 --> 00:02:11,791
"Can this youngster win it all?"
32
00:02:11,875 --> 00:02:14,250
Come on, Prem! You got this, baby!
33
00:02:14,333 --> 00:02:15,916
Go, go, go!
34
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,041
- Bring it home, my dog.
- [presenter 1] Working in parentheses,
35
00:02:19,125 --> 00:02:21,333
some of the most difficult work
you'll ever have to do.
36
00:02:21,416 --> 00:02:23,351
[presenter 2]
I've never seen some of these numbers.
37
00:02:23,375 --> 00:02:26,583
[presenter 1] I still think square root
has something to do with gardening.

- Whoo! That's my son!

- I made him.
40
00:02:30,666 --> 00:02:31,666
[spectator 2] Amazing!
41
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:33,583
[presenter 1] And here it comes. Wow.

Uh, wait a second. Now hold the phone.
43
00:02:35,875 --> 00:02:37,125
A bit of a changeup here.
44
00:02:37,208 --> 00:02:40,583
With seconds left on the clock,
Prem is heading back to his own bench.
45
00:02:40,666 --> 00:02:43,083
Prem! What are you doing?
Get back over there!

No surprises there.

There's Jerome, Prem's best friend.
48
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,166
[presenter 1] You may recall, of course,
that Claire, Prem's teammate,
49
00:02:52,250 --> 00:02:54,750
was the actual favorite
heading into this final.
50
00:02:55,500 --> 00:02:58,309

- [presenter 1] He is. Look at...

Prem, you just won the Mathlympics
with the best score in history.
67
00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:45,500
What is your secret?
68
00:03:45,583 --> 00:03:49,291
Hard work. Like my dad used to say,
"The world's best never rest."

It's your boy, Brooklyn.

Wait. Why are we taking questions?
74
00:03:59,333 --> 00:04:01,375
Well, it's really more of a comment.
75
00:04:01,458 --> 00:04:05,166
Remember, Prem, math is for losers.
76
00:04:05,916 --> 00:04:07,500
[Mr. Oh] Oh, wow. He's right.
77
00:04:07,583 --> 00:04:09,083
- Math is so lame.
- No, listen.

- What am I doing here?
- Later, nerds.

Today we will explore
how the loss of a loved one

00:05:37,458 --> 00:05:40,625
can keep us from becoming our best selves.

The square root of a negative number
isn't a number.

Not a real number.
118

you'll take the bus back to junior high

173
00:08:55,291 --> 00:08:56,833
No? No questions.
174
00:08:56,916 --> 00:08:59,041
So… [clears throat] …I'm so excited.
175
00:08:59,125 --> 00:09:02,750
This year we have some 12-year-olds
joining our high school class.
176
00:09:02,833 --> 00:09:05,583
We have Prim Patel. Did I say that right?
177
00:09:05,666 --> 00:09:07,583
It's, uh, Prem, like name.
178
00:09:07,666 --> 00:09:08,500

- Prahahaha.
- Perfect.
182
00:09:12,250 --> 00:09:15,375
Okeydokey. And we have Claire Beauséjour.
183
00:09:15,458 --> 00:09:19,583
You two are the only junior high students
who passed the entrance exam.
184
00:09:19,666 --> 00:09:21,208
You must be quite the dynamic duo.
185
00:09:21,291 --> 00:09:22,875
- Affirmative.
- Yep.
186
00:09:22,958 --> 00:09:25,375
[Ms. Sage]
Well, who knows what time it is?
187
00:09:26,541 --> 00:09:28,250
It's time for our first math quiz!
188
00:09:28,333 --> 00:09:29,333
[chuckles]
189
00:09:29,416 --> 00:09:32,666
Oh, and listen, for those of you
who are worried about grades,
190
00:09:32,750 --> 00:09:35,041
I make a deal with all of my classes.
191
00:09:35,125 --> 00:09:36,833
Does anyone from last year remember?
192
00:09:36,916 --> 00:09:37,958
Anyone?
193
00:09:38,041 --> 00:09:39,541
You know, my deal that I make?

[grunts] Mercedes?
195
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,291
If the Mathlympics team
finishes in the top three,
196
00:09:45,375 --> 00:09:47,250
everyone on it gets an automatic A.
197
00:09:47,333 --> 00:09:50,416
That's right.
It was so much fun last year, by the way.
198
00:09:50,500 --> 00:09:53,220
- Ma'am, we got destroyed. Like, dead last.
- Winning isn't everything.
199
00:09:53,291 --> 00:09:55,750
Unless you need that A, right?
You literally just said...
200
00:09:55,833 --> 00:09:58,625
This is our year,
because we're hosting the event.

at Olive Garden after we lose?
203
00:10:04,416 --> 00:10:09,083
Uh, well, this year… [chuckles] …um,
our budget includes Taco Bell.
204
00:10:09,166 --> 00:10:11,250
- Is that as punishment?
- No, no. Now, no.
205
00:10:11,333 --> 00:10:13,083
You don't have to write this down.
206
00:10:14,166 --> 00:10:18,291
Okay. On your marks, get set, solve!

209
00:10:53,916 --> 00:10:56,791
Okay, everybody,
for your first homework assignment,
210
00:10:56,875 --> 00:11:01,333
what I want you to do is write an equation
with you as the solution. Okay?
211
00:11:01,416 --> 00:11:04,458
And then you work backwards
to show how all the elements of your life
212
00:11:04,541 --> 00:11:05,541
make up who you are.
213
00:11:05,625 --> 00:11:09,000
It's gonna be so much fun. So, really,
have a lot of fun with it. Okay?
214
00:11:09,083 --> 00:11:10,750
And you might even surprise yourself.
215
00:11:10,833 --> 00:11:11,833

Ronda was measuring a diuretic
for a patient,
295
00:14:38,416 --> 00:14:41,708
and she was using deciliters
instead of cubic centimeters.

I was like,
"Honey, he's gonna pee forever."

- What was he known for?
- Known for?
315
00:15:27,875 --> 00:15:32,000
- I mean, was he smart?
- Definitely, but he wasn't a math guy.

and how he sounded.

Okay. [chuckles]
338
00:16:46,625 --> 00:16:51,541
So, when I was in nursing school,
we used to go dancing on the weekends.

[mother] And the Leopard Lounge had
this thing called Freestyle Tuesdays.
341
00:17:05,041 --> 00:17:06,434
You said you only went on weekends.
342
00:17:06,458 --> 00:17:08,541
Well, some Tuesdays. Not if we had exams.
343
00:17:08,625 --> 00:17:10,250
I don't need to explain myself.
344
00:17:10,333 --> 00:17:11,791
Anyway, you were at the club.
345
00:17:11,875 --> 00:17:14,333
We were at the club,
and my girlfriends were saying…
346
00:17:14,416 --> 00:17:16,791
This emcee's an underground legend.
347
00:17:16,875 --> 00:17:18,750
- Blah, blah, blah, blah.
- Blah, blah.
348
00:17:18,833 --> 00:17:20,313
- Blah, blah. [chuckles]
- Why are they…
349
00:17:20,375 --> 00:17:21,583
I wasn't really listening.
350
00:17:21,666 --> 00:17:25,083
- Blah, blah, blah.
- Blah, blah, blah, blah.
351
00:17:25,166 --> 00:17:27,708
I had a lot on my mind, like school...
352
00:17:27,791 --> 00:17:29,958
Priya, stop thinking about Doug. Okay?
353
00:17:30,041 --> 00:17:31,958
It's over. He's not even that cute.
354
00:17:32,041 --> 00:17:33,375
Who's Doug?
355
00:17:33,458 --> 00:17:35,458
Who? I don't know.
I can't really remember...
356
00:17:35,541 --> 00:17:38,666
Good thing we stopped you
from getting that tattoo of his name, huh?
357
00:17:38,750 --> 00:17:40,666
We literally saved your butt.
358
00:17:52,208 --> 00:17:54,708
[friend 1] Hey, girl.
We'll go grab our drinks.
359
00:17:56,750 --> 00:18:00,291
So, we get in, and we're waiting
for the show to start when...
360
00:18:00,375 --> 00:18:01,708
[person] Excuse me.
361
00:18:01,791 --> 00:18:03,583
["My Heart Will Go On" playing]
362
00:18:08,791 --> 00:18:11,583
I don't have a line.
I just wanted to meet you.
363
00:18:13,958 --> 00:18:15,250
My name's Suresh.
364
00:18:16,625 --> 00:18:18,208
- I'm not interested.
- [song stops]
365
00:18:18,291 --> 00:18:20,583
- Okay. [chuckles]
- That's what you said to Dad?
366
00:18:20,666 --> 00:18:22,375
I didn't feel like being hit on.
367
00:18:22,458 --> 00:18:24,291
- Would you like to have a drink?
- No.
368
00:18:24,375 --> 00:18:26,708
I don't drink anything ever.
369
00:18:26,791 --> 00:18:28,751
- Then why are you in a nightclub?
- Thank you. Bye.
370
00:18:28,833 --> 00:18:30,333
I wanna walk away. I really do.
371
00:18:30,416 --> 00:18:32,708
- Please do.
- Yes. You've set a clear boundary.
372
00:18:32,791 --> 00:18:35,583
The only problem is
you're the prettiest girl in the room.
373
00:18:35,666 --> 00:18:37,958
- Oh?
- And I just have this thing inside of me
374
00:18:38,041 --> 00:18:39,833
that also tells me that
you're the smartest.
375
00:18:39,916 --> 00:18:43,125
Like you probably got a...
What, 1550 on the SATs?
376
00:18:43,208 --> 00:18:44,208
[scoffs] Excuse me?
377
00:18:44,291 --> 00:18:45,708
- 1600, see?
- Thank you.
378
00:18:45,791 --> 00:18:48,333
- I went low so that I...
- How did you know I was smart?
379
00:18:48,416 --> 00:18:52,000
I could tell from your footwear,
'cause it's very sensible for a nightclub.
380
00:18:52,083 --> 00:18:53,666
- Also, if it gets cold…
- [Priya] Uh-huh.
381
00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:56,333
…you've got the turtleneck motif.
382
00:18:56,416 --> 00:18:57,791
- It's mesh.
- Mm-hmm.
383
00:18:57,875 --> 00:19:00,416
Mom, don't shut him down.
You need to make a baby.
384
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:04,250
Listen, I got a thing to do, but if you
change your mind about that drink...
385
00:19:04,333 --> 00:19:06,541
- Don't hold your breath.
- You remind me of my mother.
386
00:19:06,625 --> 00:19:07,750
I love you. Goodbye.
387
00:19:07,833 --> 00:19:09,666
So cold.
388
00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:12,000
Well, yeah,
'cause you know he's your dad now.
389
00:19:12,083 --> 00:19:14,958
For all I knew back then,
he could've been a psycho axe murderer.
390
00:19:15,041 --> 00:19:16,208
So dark.
391
00:19:16,291 --> 00:19:18,958
It happened.
2000s were a very dangerous time.
392
00:19:19,041 --> 00:19:20,934
- [crowd cheering]
- [deejay] Ladies and gentlemen,
393
00:19:20,958 --> 00:19:24,708
please welcome to the stage
the World's Best Emcee.
394
00:19:24,791 --> 00:19:27,083
- Let's make some noise.
- [crowd] Whoo!
395
00:19:27,166 --> 00:19:29,916
It's him. It's the legendary emcee.
396
00:19:30,541 --> 00:19:33,041
He's gonna use his music
to melt your cold heart.
397
00:19:33,125 --> 00:19:35,500
- [phone ringing]
- Hmm?
398
00:19:35,583 --> 00:19:36,833
No, wait. What are you doing?
399
00:19:37,666 --> 00:19:38,791
Don't you answer that.
400
00:19:39,916 --> 00:19:41,458
No, Mom. Mom!
401
00:19:41,541 --> 00:19:43,750
- [Doug] …what to do, but you were gone.
- Doug, listen.
402
00:19:43,833 --> 00:19:44,833
You're so checked out.
403
00:19:44,916 --> 00:19:46,458
I can't believe you missed the show.
404
00:19:46,541 --> 00:19:48,875
- I can't believe you're so judgy.
- Are you listening to me?
405
00:19:48,958 --> 00:19:52,541
Doug, I'm sorry. I think I just
fell in love with the idea of you.
406
00:19:52,625 --> 00:19:54,750
But you have no culture, Doug.
407
00:19:54,833 --> 00:19:57,500
Name all four members of Destiny's Child.
408
00:19:59,083 --> 00:20:01,708
There's no one named Shelly
on Destiny's Child.

My friends had a blast,
but my night was a bust.
413
00:20:09,666 --> 00:20:10,666
Tell me about it.
414
00:20:10,750 --> 00:20:12,500
I am. And this is the best part.

Prem.

He knew.

He did it because he loved it.

this one out together, okay?

But what about the Mathlympics?
679
00:35:53,458 --> 00:35:54,958
- Ms. Sage said...
- Stop playing.
680
00:35:55,041 --> 00:35:57,333
- Those other teams got, like, 50 kids.
- They got uniforms.
681

- Know what we got on that quiz?
- G's.
682

He was an underground legend.

He did Freestyle Tuesdays at this club,
the Leopard Lounge.

- Probably haven't heard of him.

Cancer.

I'd like to speak with the manager
about performing here tonight.

He was an emcee.
1236
01:01:20,583 --> 01:01:22,958
- Maybe you saw him?
- A lot of people perform here, kid.
1237
01:01:23,041 --> 01:01:24,416
But he was an underground legend.
1238
01:01:24,500 --> 01:01:27,583
The best rapper in the city,
maybe even the whole world.
1239
01:01:27,666 --> 01:01:29,791
Sick. Can he do a set here tonight?
1240
01:01:30,583 --> 01:01:32,208
No, he can't.
1241
01:01:34,708 --> 01:01:36,083
- [sighs]
- Wait.
1242
01:01:37,625 --> 01:01:39,375
You're Suresh's kid, aren't you?
1243
01:01:40,125 --> 01:01:41,958
Man, Suresh.
1244
01:01:42,041 --> 01:01:43,833
[laughs] Nobody did it better.
1245
01:01:43,916 --> 01:01:45,083
So he really was here.
1246
01:01:45,166 --> 01:01:47,583
[chuckles] Yeah, he was here all the time.
1247
01:01:47,666 --> 01:01:49,208
Man never knew how to shut up.
1248
01:01:49,291 --> 01:01:50,771
- [all chuckle]
- That's definitely him.
1249
01:01:50,833 --> 01:01:52,083
Yeah? [chuckles]
1250
01:01:52,958 --> 01:01:54,125
I heard that he…
1251
01:01:56,791 --> 01:01:57,791
I'm sorry.
1252
01:01:59,291 --> 01:02:01,916
Hey. I-I have a picture of him down there.
You wanna see it?
1253
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:03,000
Yeah.
1254
01:02:04,833 --> 01:02:06,458
[bartender sighs] Yeah.
1255
01:02:08,125 --> 01:02:09,708
What's this?
1256
01:02:09,791 --> 01:02:12,000
[bartender]
That's your dad doing his thing.
1257
01:02:12,750 --> 01:02:14,333
But he was an emcee.
1258
01:02:14,416 --> 01:02:16,083
Oh, I know. [chuckles]
1259
01:02:16,166 --> 01:02:18,208
We worked together for five years.
1260
01:02:18,708 --> 01:02:20,541
He talked a better game than anyone.
1261
01:02:20,625 --> 01:02:23,250
And his favorite thing
to talk about was hip-hop.
1262
01:02:23,333 --> 01:02:25,791
[Suresh] Nas had Primo. Pac had Dre.
1263
01:02:25,875 --> 01:02:27,958

1264

Listen, I'm the expert, okay?
1270
01:02:41,625 --> 01:02:44,708
And I'll tell you all, I'm gonna be
at the top of the list one day.
1271
01:02:44,791 --> 01:02:46,750
Yo, Skee-Lo. One more.
1272
01:02:46,833 --> 01:02:47,833
I've been waiting.
1273
01:02:47,916 --> 01:02:50,500
Fine, but only because I'm scared of you.
1274
01:02:51,541 --> 01:02:52,541
Dad?
1275
01:02:52,625 --> 01:02:54,041
Suresh had big dreams.
1276
01:02:54,125 --> 01:02:56,392
The way he talked about it,
it was like he was his own hype man.
1277
01:02:56,416 --> 01:02:57,708
All right, grumpy. Here you go.
1278
01:02:57,791 --> 01:02:59,541
This one's on me because I made you wait.
1279
01:02:59,625 --> 01:03:00,625
But just so you know,
1280
01:03:00,708 --> 01:03:04,291
the man pouring you your drink right now
is gonna be a world-famous rapper.
1281
01:03:04,375 --> 01:03:05,375
[scoffs] Okay.

But I've been grinding on my rhymes.
1284
01:03:08,208 --> 01:03:10,250
I will be doing shows.
I'm gonna do features.
1285
01:03:10,333 --> 01:03:11,541
I'll put out a album.
1286
01:03:11,625 --> 01:03:15,208
And everything in this book will make me
the World's Best Emcee. Okay?
1287
01:03:15,291 --> 01:03:16,291
You heard it here first.
1288
01:03:16,375 --> 01:03:17,375
Hey, Corey.
1289
01:03:17,458 --> 01:03:19,375
Make your next move your best move, huh?
1290
01:03:19,458 --> 01:03:22,000
- Put me on tonight.
- I can't do it. I need you back here.
1291
01:03:22,083 --> 01:03:24,625
- We have that bachelor party later.
- [sighs]
1292
01:03:24,708 --> 01:03:26,583
[Corey] I should've put him on too.
1293
01:03:26,666 --> 01:03:29,625
I mean, I would see him at open mics
after work with the fellas.
1294
01:03:29,708 --> 01:03:31,541
- He had skills.
- But what happened?
1295
01:03:31,625 --> 01:03:33,250
[Corey] Well, nothing happened.
1296
01:03:33,333 --> 01:03:36,458
One day he quit, and I heard he moved
to Jersey and settled down, you know?
1297
01:03:36,541 --> 01:03:37,458
Typical story.
1298

[glass shattering]
1299
01:03:38,875 --> 01:03:41,250
- Yo, Suresh. Can you get that for me?
- Yes, sir. One second.
1300
01:03:41,333 --> 01:03:42,875
- I'm leaking genius over here.
- [sighs]

Oh, right.

and he drops it on the ground.
1308

Well done. I got it. I got it.

You're not getting another one.

I'm gonna get carpal tunnels.

[Gabe] What does that dude even know
about rap anyways?
1313
01:04:15,041 --> 01:04:16,833
- He's just some bartender.
- Gabe!
1314
01:04:16,916 --> 01:04:18,916
[Gabe] Which is a great job obviously.

Yeah, my dad's legit into camping. Like...

[Mercedes] See? It doesn't mean anything.
1320
01:04:32,291 --> 01:04:33,375
He failed.

It means that's a part of my equation.
