﻿1
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,078
Thank you. Thank you.

2
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,714
But no, give yourselves a hand
because it was your hard work

3
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,714
that gave Yardsham Inlet the best year
in the history of this agency.

4
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,268
Before we let all that success
go to our heads,

5
00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:48,517
we just thought we should get together
and reconnect with the fundamentals

6
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,954
of what actually got us here.

7
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,633
For that, I'm gonna turn it over

8
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,633
to our resident
poet philosopher of product.

9
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,319
The rebel command of brand.

10
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,119
He's the guru
who terrifies Madison Avenue.

11
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,552
My partner, my better half,

12
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:03,720
Howard Inlet.

13
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:08,920
Love you.

14
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,831
Yes!

15
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,994
Oh. What is your "why"?

16
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,029
Why did you even get out
of the bed this morning?

17
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,191
Why did you eat what you ate?

18
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,510
Why did you wear what you wore?

19
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,875
Why did you come here?

20
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,520
Other than the fact that
I would fire you and hire someone else

21
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,198
if you didn't show up for work, but...

22
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,191
Not that. The big "why."

23
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,797
We're certainly not here
to just sell shit.

24
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,157
We are here

25
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:46,878
to connect.

26
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,510
Life is about people.

27
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,478
Advertising is about illuminating

28
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,518
how our products and services

29
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,950
will improve people's lives.

30
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,839
Now,

31
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,718
how do we do that?

32
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,999
Love.

33
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,033
Time.

34
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,073
Death.

35
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,036
Now these three abstractions
connect every single human being on Earth.

36
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,434
Everything that we covet,

37
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,272
everything that we fear not having,

38
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,113
everything that we ultimately
end up buying

39
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,157
is because at the end of the day

40
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,558
we long for love,

41
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,071
we wish we had more time,

42
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,830
and we fear death.

43
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,914
Love.

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,229
Time.

45
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,113
Death.

46
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,077
Let's begin there.

47
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,158
How long did this one take?

48
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,154
Five days.

49
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,674
That's pretty impressive.

50
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,160
- Maybe he came back too soon.
- Are you kidding me?

51
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,396
It's been six months
of this zombie routine.

52
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,760
We can't indulge this anymore.

53
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,236
Especially because

54
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,277
we're getting fired by Danworth Financial.

55
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,510
What? You're kidding me.

56
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:27,816
- No, Whit, come on!
- I'm sorry, what?

57
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:29,280
But I just talked to them yesterday.

58
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,256
I know. Everybody's been doing
their best to cover,

59
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:33,748
but that entire account
is built on Howard's relationship.

60
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,056
Half our billings are built
on Howard's relationships.

61
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,256
This is a disaster. This is a disaster.

62
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:38,508
No. Not yet.

63
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,194
We have an offer from Omnicom
for $17 a share...

64
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,576
- Oh, come on!
- ...but they want an answer

65
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:43,953
- by New Year's.
- Shh.

66
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,875
Let's be honest,
we're not worth $14 a share

67
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,320
if my partner takes a sabbatical

68
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,197
as the local domino champion
of Crazy Town.

69
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:54,480
That's a little harsh, Whit.

70
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,517
I'm sorry, but it's true.

71
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,035
Simon, I am empowering you.
Go make the deal with Omnicom.

72
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,989
I wish I could,
but Howard controls the voting shares.

73
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,456
I'll deal with the Howard part, okay?

74
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,674
Just push the papers, Simon.

75
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,877
I still don't understand
why Howard got 60% of the voting shares

76
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,149
and you only got 40.

77
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,595
Because I needed cash to settle my divorce

78
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,718
and Howard did me a huge favor
and let me sell him some.

79
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,072
So, if you never had an affair
with some junior creative,

80
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,536
we wouldn't be in this situation?

81
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,391
Inaccurate and unfair

82
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,790
to put it squarely on my shoulders.

83
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,394
Well, I'm just pointing out the facts.

84
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,237
Oh, my God.
Don't you just love that smell?

85
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:34,793
Wait. Stop.

86
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,359
Close your eyes.

87
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:37,993
Breathe it in.

88
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,150
Doesn't that remind you of your childhood?

89
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:43,914
Claire, come here.

90
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,512
Come on, I got to tell you something.

91
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,720
What?

92
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,279
I have been doing something
about our situation

93
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,112
that you need to know about.

94
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:57,280
What did you do?

95
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,759
I hired someone.

96
00:05:58,960 --> 00:05:59,995
You hired someone?

97
00:06:00,280 --> 00:06:03,238
Yes. Look, when Eloise caught me cheating,

98
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,949
she used a private investigator
named Sally Price.

99
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,176
She's this woman
who looks like a Mormon grandmother,

100
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,953
and it makes her very good
at the whole stealth thing.

101
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,356
You hired the woman
who caused your divorce?

102
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,552
No. I caused my divorce.

103
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,154
Sally Price just documented it.

104
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,274
Wow. That was actually enlightened.

105
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,990
I have hidden depth. We've discussed this.

106
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,634
So,

107
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,438
why did you hire the Mormon grandmother?

108
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,433
Because we need to document
what's going on with Howard.

109
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,394
We need to show that
he's not mentally fit to vote his shares.

110
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,154
No. We're not really
in that place where we're...

111
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,437
We're actually gonna be the people
who would do that to a friend?

112
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,749
It's not that he won't sell,

113
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,317
it's that he won't even
have a conversation about selling.

114
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,119
I try to talk to him, I try to reach him,

115
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:52,760
and it's like I'm not even
in the same physical space with him.

116
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:53,880
He's not there.

117
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:55,996
His kid died.

118
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,515
That was two years ago, Claire.

119
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,994
What are we gonna...

120
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,071
This is our lives at stake.

121
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,080
We're not kids anymore.
You look me in the face

122
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,496
and tell me that you're willing to have
everything you've worked for

123
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,636
for the last 10 years just evaporate.

124
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,519
Is this PI good?

125
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,477
She caught me cheating.

126
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,120
Oscar could have caught you cheating.

127
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,679
Who the hell's Oscar?

128
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:20,840
My son.

129
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,996
Oh. That Oscar?

130
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,160
This private investigator
isn't gonna find anything

131
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,031
that'll pass for moral turpitude.

132
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,871
Not on Howard,

133
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,759
but if she can raise concern
regarding legal capacity,

134
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,069
then we'll be in business.

135
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,674
I do really think that
we are out of other options.

136
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,673
You know, he terrorized
the grief counselor for six months.

137
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,549
He totally blew off the Ayahuasca shaman
we flew in all the way from Peru.

138
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,393
And our...
Our intervention was a disaster.

139
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,834
I just...

140
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,757
Look, uh, this doesn't feel right.

141
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,799
I know.

142
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,633
But when something starts
with a six-year-old dying,

143
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,472
nothing is gonna feel right.

144
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,240
He writes letters.

145
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,237
Letters? What kind of letters?

146
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,960
This might be the strangest thing
I have ever come across.

147
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,951
- You got the letters?
- Oh, yeah.

148
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,917
Can we ask you how?

149
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,509
Cost me $800

150
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:33,749
to get this cut.

151
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:34,920
And just so you know,

152
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,277
it's a federal offense
to steal mail directly from a mailbox.

153
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,670
- You could...
- Yeah.

154
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,115
- So, three letters.
- Who are they to?

155
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,600
- Oh, not who.
- What do you mean?

156
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,320
Howard doesn't write letters to people.

157
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:47,799
He writes to things.

158
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,831
- What kind of things?
- Time.

159
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,032
Love.

160
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:54,595
Death.

161
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,592
The three abstractions.

162
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,915
"Time,

163
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,355
"they say you heal all wounds,

164
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,431
"but they don't talk about how you destroy

165
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:03,840
"all that's good in the world.

166
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,555
"How you turn beauty into ash.

167
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,192
"Well, you're nothing more
than petrified wood to me.

168
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,591
"You're a dead tissue
that won't decompose.

169
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,760
"You're nothing."

170
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,070
That doesn't prove anything.
We can't use that, right?

171
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,271
No. I mean,
kids write letters to Santa Claus,

172
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:20,640
it doesn't mean they're crazy.

173
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,075
No. This is therapeutic.

174
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,514
It's so sad.

175
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,591
Yeah. Anything else?

176
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,232
Usually after work,
he goes to a small dog park in Brooklyn,

177
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,436
even though he doesn't own a dog.

178
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,113
Just sits there for hours.

179
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:36,760
Does he write letters to the dogs?

180
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:38,680
Are you serious?

181
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,576
Well, that would be
like the home run, right?

182
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,079
I mean, that's what we need.

183
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,111
- Does he?
- Not that I saw.

184
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,352
- Okay. What else?
- That's it, really.

185
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:50,233
Goes home to his apartment.
Rarely leaves before morning.

186
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,675
No Wi-Fi, cable, phone. Nothing.

187
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,959
"You're a dead tissue
that won't decompose."

188
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:20,834
Howard?

189
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:23,318
Hey, it's Claire.

190
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:27,990
I swung by that place down the street
and got you some dinner.

191
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,834
It's that shrimp thing you like.

192
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,837
Okay, I'm gonna leave it right here,
in case you haven't eaten.

193
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,680
Hey, don't keep leaving the food there.

194
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,760
He doesn't eat it.

195
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,672
Oh, I'm... I'm sorry.

196
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,478
And he's late on his rent again.

197
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,256
He doesn't answer his door,
and I don't have a working number for him.

198
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,555
Yeah, he doesn't have a phone anymore.

199
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,513
Um, how much does he owe?
I'll write you a check.

200
00:12:57,680 --> 00:12:59,557
If that's what you want to do.

201
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:02,679
And, uh, if you're not doing anything
with that shrimp...

202
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,039
Broccoli rabe last week was delicious.

203
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,557
Here he is.

204
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,588
Hey, where's your stuff?

205
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,075
I wanted to text you,
but Mom said I had to call.

206
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:14,434
Text me about what?

207
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,478
But then Barry said
I had to tell you in person.

208
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,751
Are we taking life advice from Barry now?

209
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,576
What are...
What are you trying to tell me?

210
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,999
I'm not coming to stay with you.

211
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,776
I'm going with Barry and Mom
to the Bahamas.

212
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,314
No, no. Wait, wait, wait.

213
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:29,869
Hi.

214
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,514
How you doing?

215
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,400
Can I get, like, five minutes,
maybe a couple feet

216
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,636
just to have this conversation
with my daughter?

217
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:42,789
Thanks.

218
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,188
Honey, I got...

219
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:46,536
I got all kinds of stuff planned.

220
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:47,736
I got a Christmas tree for us.

221
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,795
Then sucks for you.

222
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,096
I got us tickets to Hamilton.

223
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,519
Then sucks for Hamilton.

224
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,033
That's a tough ticket, Allison.

225
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,389
I've already seen it.

226
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,550
You did?
You saw that with Mom and Barry?

227
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,153
And Odell Beckham Jr.

228
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:00,839
And Odell Beckham?

229
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,559
Yeah.

230
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,119
He's one of Barry's friends.

231
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,309
Why?

232
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,296
Why don't you want to spend
the holiday with me?

233
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,639
I miss you.

234
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,473
Because I hate you.

235
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,398
Because you're a philanthropist.

236
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,750
Because you broke Mom's heart.

237
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,148
- Philanderer.
- What?

238
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,016
The word you're looking for
is philanderer, not philanthropist.

239
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,600
They have a slightly different meaning.

240
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,398
Well, you would know.

241
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,874
Mmm-hmm.

242
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,189
Look, I agreed to tell you in person,
and now I have.

243
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:45,755
Hey,

244
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,632
have a good Christmas.

245
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:04,634
Hold it.

246
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:07,554
Hey.

247
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,631
So, rapid fire round while I got you?

248
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,392
Cavs are in town.

249
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,232
Christmas showdown at the Garden.

250
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,718
I never give your seat away.

251
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,990
I just go solo, but we could go.

252
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,640
Don't even have to talk.
Don't even have to look at each other.

253
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,016
We can do just what we're doing right now
and just watch the game.

254
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,439
Be like old times.

255
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:36,548
Right, number two.

256
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,016
We're gonna lose the Danworth account

257
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:39,800
because that's always been
your relationship.

258
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,149
And they're not feeling the love,
as you might imagine.

259
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,320
So that's gonna happen.

260
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,596
Whatever though,

261
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,115
because we've got an offer
from Omnicom, and it's real.

262
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:51,878
17 bucks a share.

263
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,318
Please consider it, because...

264
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,959
Yeah, yeah.

265
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,436
Because they leave total creative control
and they let everybody keep their jobs,

266
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,160
which I know you care about,
because you love these people.

267
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:05,840
Good talk.

268
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,079
The Beijing boys are here.

269
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,157
Oh, God. No one wants Chinese coffee.

270
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,355
Well, we're selling it.

271
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,193
The Manchurian macchiato. Mmm.

272
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:43,994
What are we casting?

273
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,880
- Cruise line.
- Now, see, that's good copy.

274
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,600
"Shed your skin, find your life."

275
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,193
Sorry, it's

276
00:17:50,360 --> 00:17:52,920
"Life is found when you shed your skin."

277
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,594
- Does it really matter?
- Yes, because I wrote it.

278
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,593
Oh, well, my way's better.

279
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,159
- Really? How?
- Yeah.

280
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,833
Well... Wait, what is your way?

281
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,036
"Life is found
when you shed your skin."

282
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,158
Which, you know, kind of hits you here.

283
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,435
"Shed your skin, find your life."

284
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:12,874
Hits you here.

285
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:15,429
That does hit me here.

286
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,198
Right?

287
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:18,360
You can have it for free.

288
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,317
Just, wait. Wait.

289
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:21,674
Wait.

290
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,189
- Hey, Frankel.
- Yeah?

291
00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:28,078
"Shed your skin, find your life."

292
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,310
"Shed your skin, find your life."
Everybody, okay?

293
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,480
Got it.

294
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:33,953
She made it better.

295
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,035
Hey!

296
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,308
No, no, no.

297
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:51,555
Hey, hey!

298
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,151
"And you talk to me
in such tones

299
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,959
"as if it wasn't the breath in my lungs
that gave you life."

300
00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:34,633
- You're late.
- Sorry.

301
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,756
"As if it wasn't a spark in my mind

302
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,592
"that gave that life meaning."

303
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,910
"Oh, you move your tongue,
you mouth syllables,

304
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,752
"you echo sentiment.

305
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,148
"But you do not breathe."

306
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,389
"You speak of spark?

307
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:46,988
"That is richness.

308
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,350
"For you deny the spark between us all.

309
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,399
"A spark that is more a sun
than the cold fire you claim.

310
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,799
"And you have called me
a temporary madness.

311
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,188
"A vicious soul.

312
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:00,793
"Well,

313
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,919
"then ask if you will see me
just one more time."

314
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,113
Hello?

315
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,795
Hi.

316
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,076
So sorry. I literally just wandered in,

317
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,959
and I caught the tail end of that, and...

318
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,960
Can I just say that was beautiful?

319
00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:19,155
What is... What is it?

320
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:21,216
It's just something
we're trying to put together.

321
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,117
I just... I love theater. I see everything.

322
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:24,776
So when's opening night? I'll be there.

323
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,234
There is no opening night
until we get this money together.

324
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,436
- You rich?
- Divorced.

325
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,597
You followed me from the casting session.

326
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,671
- Absolutely, I did. Yes.
- Yeah.

327
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,149
I almost lost you,
but the red hat helped.

328
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,630
Hey, um, I'm gonna say something
a little impulsive here,

329
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:40,840
maybe a little crazy,

330
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,560
but, you know, uh, I have something
about to happen for me.

331
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:48,072
I'm in the middle of a deal
that if it all comes together,

332
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,679
I'd be in a position to help.

333
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,671
Well, now wouldn't that be lovely?

334
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,317
It would. Be great.

335
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,158
And you, you know, you fixed it.

336
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,596
So, we should get you back into casting
if you want the gig. I mean...

337
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,240
Sorry, I don't even...
I don't know your name.

338
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,910
- Amy.
- Amy.

339
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,435
Okay. Well,

340
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,751
I'll be back, Amy. I'll be back.

341
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,229
Mmm. And I'll be...

342
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,756
Hmm. Sorry.

343
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,274
I was on the stage!

344
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,919
I'll be back.

345
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,234
You're good.

346
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,119
Well done, you.

347
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,073
Apartment next door is vacant,

348
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,510
but the guy down the hall
says he didn't hear anything.

349
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,113
Ditto the manager.

350
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,556
Wait, they have a CSI: Cleveland now?

351
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,616
- Neighborhood like this...
- It's a new show.

352
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,039
Minding their own business.

353
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,829
What's a respectable
neurosurgeon doing in a crack house?

354
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,115
I don't know.

355
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,918
The werewolves,

356
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,911
they're meeting out front

357
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,991
all hours of the night.

358
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,593
I heard them. Yeah.

359
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,752
I think they're...

360
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,559
I think they're voting
on a new head of the syndicate.

361
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,869
But

362
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,439
I got a raccoon friend.
He's on the task force.

363
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,636
He put a bug out there for me
by the trash cans.

364
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,597
We're gonna tape everything they say

365
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,110
and we'll bust them on a RICO statute.

366
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,111
I don't know anything about that.

367
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,191
Hey, I'm your son.

368
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,837
I know that!

369
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,118
Good.

370
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,279
I'll be right back.

371
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,472
Okay, I have kind of a wild idea.

372
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:21,776
And I know you're gonna laugh at me,

373
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,760
but remember that we're desperate
and hear me out.

374
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,759
So, my mom hasn't been totally
in her right mind since her stroke, right?

375
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,639
And I'm always trying to remind her
what's actually going on

376
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,229
and correct the, sort of,
daffy things that she says.

377
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,296
And it upsets her,
and it really stresses me out.

378
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,056
And it was pretty much just awful
for a while.

379
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,640
And then, someone said something
very, very wise to me.

380
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:44,749
They said, "Maybe you should stop
trying to force your reality on her

381
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,992
"and just...
Just go into her reality."

382
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,991
I thought you couldn't
afford therapy anymore.

383
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,991
- I can't. It was my Uber driver.
- Oh.

384
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,511
And he was totally right.
Totally right!

385
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,672
As soon as I started doing this,
everything got easier, you know?

386
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,831
Our life is like
this improvisational game.

387
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,430
She just... She says wackadoodle stuff,
and I respond to it.

388
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,036
And, uh, she's totally happy
and I kind of have fun.

389
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,576
- And that made me think of something else.
- Mmm.

390
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,352
Okay.

391
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,189
When I was at FBW,

392
00:24:14,360 --> 00:24:16,376
I had this account
for a psychostimulant drug, right?

393
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,360
And they went with some
bullshit generic campaign,

394
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,216
but I kept the Hispanic market.

395
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,355
Here, watch this. Okay.

396
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,755
So, the teacher is really stressing.
He's saying, uh,

397
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,956
"Well, you talk all the time!
You never listen!"

398
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:27,917
And then here comes the monster.

399
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,376
"It doesn't have to be this way."

400
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,391
Teacher, "Who are you?"

401
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:32,993
Monster, "I'm your anger, man."

402
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,200
And the teacher says...

403
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,640
"I can't stand you, man.
You dominate my life."

404
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,598
And anger says,
"There's a solution, my friend.

405
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,557
"Docotrin, say goodbye to your anger."

406
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,593
Do you see where I'm going with this?

407
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,190
- Not really.
- Okay, okay. Look, look.

408
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,555
We can't get Howard to deal with this
reality that we need him to deal with.

409
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,433
And he's writing letters to abstractions
which makes no sense.

410
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,551
But... But he's doing it.

411
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,950
So, what if we just go into his reality

412
00:25:02,120 --> 00:25:04,759
and we get those abstractions
to answer him?

413
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,159
I'm sorry, I... I don't follow.

414
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,950
What if Love, Time and Death
show up in person

415
00:25:12,120 --> 00:25:14,429
and answer the letters
that Howard's been writing to them?

416
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,434
How are Time, Love and Death
gonna show up?

417
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,591
Actors.

418
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,150
We hire actors to be Love, Death and Time.

419
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,471
They find Howard and they confront him.

420
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,640
So, you want us to gaslight your boss?

421
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,191
- Huh? I'm sorry?
- Gas Light.

422
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:38,120
You know? It was a play,
then it was a movie.

423
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,998
Gas Light? Oh, my God.

424
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,948
Does nobody ever watch anything
longer than eight seconds anymore?

425
00:25:44,120 --> 00:25:47,635
What she's saying is
you want us to make him think he's crazy?

426
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,395
No, no, no. It's not about
making Howard think he's crazy.

427
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,473
Howard's not in a good mental state,
and we know that.

428
00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:00,873
It's about underlining that fact
so that other people can see it, too.

429
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,358
Okay. So you want us to perform
in this intervention,

430
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,592
and for that
you're gonna finance our play?

431
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:09,869
- That's it.
- Exactly.

432
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,031
Yeah, we'll finance whatever...

433
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,896
I mean, this looks
like a storage facility, but...

434
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,354
Okay. Well, actors. What do we think?

435
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,988
- No. No, no, no.
- Oh, no.

436
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,160
Listen, listen!

437
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,673
We take $15,000 each.

438
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,593
- Okay? $15,000.
- Are you completely out of your mind?

439
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,512
Okay, we'll do it.

440
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,033
$20,000, each.

441
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,510
Uh-uh! I just... You guys just said 15.
I heard you say 15.

442
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,996
- Mmm... I like 20.
- I like 20 as well.

443
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,240
Well, 20's just...
I don't know, it's a little steep.

444
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:38,656
I'm like... I was thinking two.
These guys probably live in Brooklyn.

445
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,336
- They pay 600 bucks a month.
- Stop talking. Just stop.

446
00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:41,536
You did a good job pulling them down.

447
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,240
This is horrible.
This is completely wrong.

448
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,114
No, Amy. This is the work. This is acting.

449
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,520
Did you not hear them say
that this man's lost his child?

450
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,150
Yes. And that's why he's reaching out
to the cosmos for answers.

451
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,232
Well, we get to be that cosmos.

452
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,518
Okay, so you want us to manipulate
this guy's pain so that, what?

453
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,551
What, you cash out?
You make a lot of money?

454
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,200
- No!
- No, no, no, no!

455
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:05,696
That doesn't sound good
when you put it that way.

456
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,029
- It's a lot more complicated than that.
- Is it?

457
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,235
We love this man.

458
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,636
And he's not just a boss, he's a friend.

459
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,472
Howard is a brilliant,
creative, charismatic guy

460
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:16,880
who used to be fearless.

461
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,110
He used to love life,
and right now, he hates it.

462
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,068
And you really think
that this is gonna help him?

463
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:23,713
He lost his child.

464
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,908
And now he doesn't care
if he loses everything else.

465
00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:29,429
We just can't let that happen.

466
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,272
We have to bring him back.

467
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,228
$20,000's worth it.

468
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:35,656
- I'll pay for it.
- Claire!

469
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,910
I'll pay for it. I'll pay for it myself.
I don't care.

470
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,238
So, what are the rules?

471
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,233
Well, first, we'd have to sign
a confidentiality agreement.

472
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,256
And make sure
that you don't talk about it, 'cause...

473
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,576
No, I don't mean the legal rules.

474
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,397
I mean, the rules
of the theatrical device.

475
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,513
I mean, do other people see us,
or only Howard?

476
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,760
- Yeah, do other people see them, Whit?
- Whit?

477
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,673
I guess... I guess only Howard.

478
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,831
That's the effect
we're looking for, right?

479
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,479
- Guess?
- You guess? I mean...

480
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,280
I'm sorry, have you thought this through?

481
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,793
- Sure. Sure.
- No.

482
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,176
- I mean, to a degree.
- No, we haven't.

483
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,555
No, we haven't, Whit. Shut up! Like...
We haven't.

484
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,632
For instance, what if they go into a bar
and they want to order a drink?

485
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:14,869
How can they do that if...

486
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,936
Do you see Howard walking
into a lot of bars these days?

487
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,188
Whatever. Doesn't matter.

488
00:28:18,360 --> 00:28:20,016
- I mean, what if Howard goes clubbing?
- They're actors.

489
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,838
- They need to know hypothetically.
- Okay. Okay. Enough. Enough.

490
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,436
We have the power to be seen
by whomever we want, whenever we want.

491
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,312
- How's that?
- I like that, I like that.

492
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,136
- I told you they were good.
- I like that, yeah.

493
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:31,440
We should just leave it to them.

494
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:32,549
Let's move on.

495
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,720
What's next?

496
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,792
Well, Howard wrote three letters
to Love, Death and Time.

497
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,997
So, I guess the only question is
who plays who?

498
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,071
Casting. Very important.

499
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,834
Love.

500
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:46,599
Death.

501
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:48,320
Time.

502
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,629
Great. When do we get paid?

503
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,150
"Dear Death,
you travel with so much mythology,

504
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,352
"cause so much pain, inspire such fear.

505
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,591
"But you're a paper tiger to me.

506
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,877
"You're just pathetic
and powerless middle management.

507
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,640
"You don't even have the authority
to make a simple trade."

508
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,837
As you can see,
it's not exactly a fan letter.

509
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,200
Yeah, well, Death doesn't have any fans.

510
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,676
I don't understand why,
because it's a liberation.

511
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,716
Hey, you okay?

512
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,239
Mmm-mmm.

513
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,190
He goes to work, and the dog park.

514
00:29:58,600 --> 00:29:59,874
And that's it.

515
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,553
Okay. So, here's how I'm gonna do it.

516
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,199
I'm gonna come to him angry.

517
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,550
Like, pissed off. Like, we got a problem.

518
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,029
No, no, no. Don't do that.

519
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,232
He's calling me wood and dead tissue.
He's calling me out.

520
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,400
How's he calling you out?

521
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,754
Time.

522
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,832
He's calling out Time, and I'm Time.

523
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,555
Look, I don't want
you antagonizing Howard.

524
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,073
Do you get that?

525
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,232
But the letter only consists
of one word, "Goodbye."

526
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:41,920
Look.

527
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,071
"Dear Love, goodbye."

528
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,914
What am I even supposed to say to him?

529
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,276
Um, it's...

530
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,016
It's a letter to Love
saying goodbye, right?

531
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,712
- Yeah.
- So, what if you approach him,

532
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,393
and you refuse to accept that?

533
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,835
You say he can't
get rid of you that easily.

534
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,234
Tell him that

535
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,234
we don't get to choose who we love
and who loves us back.

536
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,956
Tell him that you're within him,

537
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,029
you're within everything,
whether he likes it or not.

538
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,271
And if he accepts that,

539
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,153
then maybe... I don't know.

540
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,915
Maybe he gets to find his life again.

541
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,673
They grieve.

542
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,078
Dogs.

543
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,471
They grieve,
and they fully understand death.

544
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,755
You called me a paper tiger.

545
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,273
In the letter you wrote me.

546
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,998
You said I was pathetic.

547
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:34,869
Mmm.

548
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,308
You don't remember?

549
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,710
You went on about middle management,

550
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,997
making a deal, paper tiger.

551
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,153
Oh, Howard, it wasn't that long ago.

552
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,476
Where did you get that?

553
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,316
- Who are you?
- Who did you write the letter to?

554
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,159
I wrote the letter to Death.

555
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,038
Nice to meet you. Charmed, I'm sure.

556
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,314
No.

557
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:08,240
I know, I know.

558
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,550
People write letters
to the universe all the time.

559
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,551
Most don't get a personal response.

560
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,070
But you are, because I just wanted
to tell you that you're wrong.

561
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,037
I'm not some powerless middle management

562
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,520
- just following orders.
- Miss...

563
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,075
You see, I didn't want to make
the trade. It was my call.

564
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,231
I don't want this. I don't want this.

565
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,040
Now, I don't tell you how to do your job.

566
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,112
So, I'd appreciate it
if you didn't tell me how to do mine.

567
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,634
Who's that man talking to?
He looks kind of weird.

568
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,951
Don't worry about that.
Sometimes people are silly.

569
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,714
You see, they don't see me
till it's their time.

570
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,996
Oh, it's okay, Howard.
It's not your time yet.

571
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,713
I just wanted to return this

572
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,594
and clear things up between us.

573
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,040
I really am Death, Howard!

574
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:58,440
He believed me.

575
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,232
I'm telling you he believed me.

576
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,834
- That's amazing.
- I mean, that was spectacular.

577
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,616
Because there was no safety net, you see.

578
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,040
That... That... That was Grotowski.

579
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,634
- That was pure Stella Adler!
- Ah!

580
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,800
- Thank you. Thank you for the opportunity.
- Yes.

581
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,016
- You are a kind man.
- Oh, not a problem.

582
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,856
- He believed me, I'm telling you.
- I wouldn't go that far.

583
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,096
But he needed it.
I could tell. I could tell in his eyes.

584
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,416
Who was that woman and that little boy?
That was incredible.

585
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,576
Oh, that was our private investigator
and her grandson.

586
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,750
Oh, really?
And did she say anything about me?

587
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,797
She said you were good.
She said really good.

588
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,296
"Good"? What do you mean? Good like...

589
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,436
You mean good like cabbage is good,
or what?

590
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,636
No, no. She... Great.

591
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,315
She said, she said,
"She made the impossible possible."

592
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,835
I should be paying you.

593
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,470
They told me that Trevor had
packed his little suitcase,

594
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,830
that he said he was going home.

595
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,159
I was furious.

596
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,829
But he was sleeping,
so I couldn't talk to him.

597
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:57,630
I mean, what nurse promises
this dying five-year-old little boy

598
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,438
he could go home?

599
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,834
He barely had any white blood cells left.

600
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:05,318
He was so fragile.

601
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:08,631
And who could be so cruel?

602
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:10,919
Who could do that?

603
00:35:12,240 --> 00:35:13,912
So, of course I'm frantic.

604
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:18,471
I am shouting at the staff,
trying to get to the bottom of it.

605
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,394
Well, Trevor finally wakes up

606
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,755
and I go to him.

607
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:31,029
You know, his little blue suitcase
was still at the edge of the bed, right.

608
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,559
So, I look at him and ask,

609
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,676
"Who said that to you, sweetie?

610
00:35:38,720 --> 00:35:41,393
"Who said that you could
come back to our house?"

611
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,672
You know what he says?

612
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:46,877
"Nobody, Mommy.

613
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,954
"I'm not going back to our house.

614
00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:53,233
"I'm going home."

615
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,435
He died four hours later.

616
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:19,839
Hello.

617
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:22,314
Hi.

618
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,429
Are you looking
for Smallest Wings Support Group?

619
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,913
Um...

620
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,838
- Yes.
- And you are?

621
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,078
- Um, Howard.
- Howard.

622
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,510
Come on in. Have a seat.

623
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:54,951
Did you lose a child, Howard?

624
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:56,959
Yeah.

625
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,633
- Boy or girl?
- Uh...

626
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,109
A girl.

627
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,479
And what was her name?

628
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,675
No, it's okay. Howard.

629
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,631
You don't have to answer.

630
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,279
You don't even have to talk, okay?

631
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,592
You stick around?

632
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:24,308
Please?

633
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:31,274
Okay.

634
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:32,998
Thank you so much for sharing.

635
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,548
We really appreciate it.

636
00:37:34,720 --> 00:37:35,720
Thank you.

637
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,988
Does anybody have anything else
they'd like to say?

638
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,512
- So, why'd you decide to come in tonight?
- Hmm?

639
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,357
Yeah, I've... I've seen you outside.

640
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,353
I was gonna come out one night
and invite you in,

641
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,476
but I guess I didn't want
to blow up your spot.

642
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,030
Blow up my spot?

643
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,191
- Yeah.
- You didn't want to mess up my jam?

644
00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:16,153
Exactly.

645
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:18,869
What's your name?

646
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:22,589
I'm Madeline.

647
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:24,758
Nice to meet you.

648
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,032
My daughter's name was Olivia.

649
00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:31,755
She died of a rare form of brain cancer
known as Glioblastoma Multiforme,

650
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,239
or GBM for short.

651
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,152
She was six years old.

652
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,917
What was your daughter's name, Howard?

653
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:47,399
Okay.

654
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,552
Fine. Don't answer.
I'm not gonna torture you.

655
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,113
Thank you.

656
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,794
- Was it the holidays?
- Mmm?

657
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,871
Why you decided to come in tonight.

658
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,838
We get a lot of first-timers
during the holidays.

659
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,389
- No, that's not it.
- Then why tonight?

660
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,914
Uh, I guess...

661
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:08,480
I'm, uh...

662
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,912
I'm trying to fix my mind.

663
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:16,870
You lost a child, Howard.

664
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,471
It'll never be fixed.

665
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,951
I hope you come back.

666
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:14,480
Hey.

667
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,910
Signed contracts
and confidentiality agreements.

668
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,355
- Oh, great. Thank you.
- So, did he say something?

669
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:20,834
Who, Howard?

670
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,761
- No. Unfortunately, he didn't.
- Oh, he believed it, I'm telling you.

671
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,616
- Oh, that's good.
- Maybe you should send me in again.

672
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,676
Not Raffi. Raffi's too impetuous.

673
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,671
And Amy, she's just so emotional.

674
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,512
After me, what is there?

675
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,113
Well, he did write three letters.

676
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,276
But Death is so much more vital than Time.

677
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,954
- Right.
- Death gives Time all of its value.

678
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,879
Maybe... Maybe I should
play all the parts.

679
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,670
You know the highest margin demographic
is new parents now?

680
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:46,320
Target actually invented an algorithm

681
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,576
to predict when their female customers
were gonna get pregnant.

682
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,875
You said before that you weren't okay.

683
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:52,519
Are you sick?

684
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,188
I'm sick.

685
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,712
You could say, uh, I'm very sick.

686
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,199
You're dying?

687
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,199
Everyone's dying.

688
00:41:14,240 --> 00:41:16,196
Yeah, but you're doing it now.

689
00:41:18,720 --> 00:41:21,075
Simon. Simon.

690
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,872
Come on, tell me. Tell me.
What is it? What's wrong?

691
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:27,758
What's wrong?

692
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,235
What's wrong is that
I came out of remission

693
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:31,913
two weeks before my son was born.

694
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:33,794
What's wrong

695
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,520
is that I'm running a marathon every day
pretending to be healthy.

696
00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:38,948
That's what's wrong.

697
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,313
Have you told anyone?

698
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:46,554
You haven't?

699
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,793
No, just some pushy actress
that I don't really know.

700
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,436
What is it?

701
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,149
It's multiple myeloma.

702
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,710
I fought it when I was 16,
and then again when I was 25.

703
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,195
It just never went away.

704
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,954
Instead it regrouped and got stronger.

705
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,191
So, the war's over?

706
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,396
Yeah, war's over.

707
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,874
Are your affairs in order?

708
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:26,908
My affairs are not in order.

709
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,477
That's why I hired you.

710
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:31,640
It's bad enough that
I'm leaving my family.

711
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,751
I'm not gonna leave them penniless.

712
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:37,799
He believed me.

713
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:39,675
Howard.

714
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,149
He believed me.

715
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,598
Hey. Excuse me.
No, don't touch that.

716
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,313
I don't understand dominoes.

717
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,836
There's no board to play them on,
or basket to throw them into.

718
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,353
Right. Um...

719
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,120
I think you might be in the wrong place.

720
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:04,991
No, I'm in the right place, Howard.

721
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,469
Mmm. Yeah.

722
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,556
"Time, they say you heal all wounds,

723
00:43:15,720 --> 00:43:18,917
"but they don't talk about how you destroy
all that's good in the world.

724
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,592
"How you turn beauty into ash."

725
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,478
Now that's some bullshit, Howard.

726
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,236
If Love is creation
and Death is destruction,

727
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,310
I'm just a terrain in between.

728
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,192
You don't understand Time.
No one understands Time.

729
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,158
I mean, Einstein came close
when he said I was an illusion.

730
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:39,514
Howard? Hey. Uh...

731
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:40,869
Listen, I'm sure it's a "no"

732
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,032
but Oneida Apparel asked that
you be in the media buy meeting.

733
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,918
I'm sorry to just barge in.

734
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:49,793
Ask her.

735
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,713
Go ahead. Ask her if she can see me.

736
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,320
I'm not gonna be in the meeting.

737
00:44:05,720 --> 00:44:07,392
Mmm-hmm.

738
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:08,754
Well, they insisted I ask.

739
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,616
I mean, they're probably
gonna fire us, so...

740
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:11,675
Okay.

741
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:12,989
- Awesome.
- Yes.

742
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:14,195
Okay.

743
00:44:15,240 --> 00:44:16,559
See you later.

744
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,232
You can have this back, Howard.

745
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,231
Why did you write me anyway?

746
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:24,913
You wrote me because you need me.

747
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:26,399
No. Um...

748
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,397
I don't need anything from you, okay?

749
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,636
You all like to bitch and complain.

750
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,631
"There isn't enough time."

751
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,677
"Life is short."

752
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:36,910
"Oh, here, the gray hairs are coming in."

753
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:38,911
You know, a day is long as hell.

754
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,958
I'm abundant. I'm a gift.

755
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,315
Even while you're
standing here talking shit,

756
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,914
I'm gifting you, and you're wasting it.

757
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,120
On what?

758
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:49,952
I mean, what is this? Huh?

759
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,279
Hey, hey!

760
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:54,635
You know,

761
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,268
I should be the one
that's writing angry letters.

762
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,916
That was the worst thing I've ever done.

763
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,076
That was the best thing I've ever done.

764
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,073
What was that thing you said
about Einstein in there?

765
00:45:13,240 --> 00:45:16,630
Einstein called time
a stubbornly persistent illusion.

766
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:19,239
What's that even mean?

767
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,676
Time doesn't go from January to December,

768
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,478
or from noon to midnight.

769
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,915
You know, we all just make it that way
in our heads.

770
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:27,793
That's absurd.

771
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,758
Try telling that to a person
who's an hour late to a wedding

772
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,708
or was just sentenced to 20 years in jail.

773
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,360
Or someone fighting a baby clock.

774
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,988
We really don't need
to have this conversation, ever.

775
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,317
Anyway, just...

776
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,119
Yeah, wanted to say great job today.

777
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,150
Just a stubborn illusion, Claire.

778
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:52,992
You have all the time in the world.

779
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:54,959
You're nine!

780
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:57,839
"You're nine."

781
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:15,480
Hi.

782
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:20,431
I'm sorry.

783
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,755
I'm so sorry.

784
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:26,633
Um...

785
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,955
You gotta be friggin' kidding me.

786
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:32,473
I'm eating.

787
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:35,878
You said goodbye, and that...

788
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:40,399
We don't get to choose
who we love or who loves us back.

789
00:46:41,240 --> 00:46:43,536
And that means you're powerless to me
as long as you're alive

790
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,312
because I'm the fabric of life.

791
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,074
I'm within you. I'm within everything.

792
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:49,835
Howard,

793
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:52,232
if you can accept that, then maybe...

794
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,109
I don't know,
but maybe you get to live again.

795
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,516
I completely screwed it up.

796
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,479
I was weepy and apologetic.

797
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,480
Well, I think love can be
weepy and apologetic.

798
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:21,880
I think I was better at the end.

799
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,634
Hey, hey. I'm sure you were great.

800
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:26,399
You're sweet.

801
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:27,600
Can I kiss you?

802
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:29,398
You don't have to sexualize it.

803
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,029
I can kiss you without sexualizing it.

804
00:47:32,240 --> 00:47:34,470
Seriously, I've had sex
without sexualizing it.

805
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,437
You should take "sweet," Whit.

806
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:38,194
It's a promotion.

807
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,351
"Irresistible" would be a promotion.

808
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:43,320
He believes it.

809
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:44,833
How could you tell?

810
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:47,758
I could tell by his eyes.

811
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,912
That's great, but no one else has seen it

812
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,040
and that's ultimately
what we need to have happen.

813
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:56,271
We think if you would engage with him

814
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,273
- one more time, um, in public.
- Great. Mmm-hmm.

815
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,113
But this time try to...

816
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,794
But you need to provoke
a strong visible reaction.

817
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:04,960
Why?

818
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,118
Because our private investigator's
gonna capture it on video.

819
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:09,456
And we're gonna use it as evidence.

820
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:10,720
It'll be like being in a movie.

821
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:13,200
Except you'll be digitally removed.

822
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:14,920
No.

823
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:16,320
Sorry?

824
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,629
This is too intense.

825
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:19,456
Um, I'm sorry. I can't be a part of this.

826
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,313
Amy, there is no "too intense" in acting.

827
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,552
Do you wanna be loved
or do you wanna make an impact?

828
00:48:25,720 --> 00:48:28,154
I mean, this isn't Noël Coward.

829
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:29,753
This is... This is Chekhov.

830
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,148
This is horrible!

831
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,438
The... You know,

832
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,791
you did start the agency
with him, didn't you, Whit?

833
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,393
And, Claire, he was your mentor.

834
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,273
And, Simon, he gave you part
ownership in a business

835
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,072
when he absolutely didn't have to.

836
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:45,976
- I may have told her a few things...
- Mmm-hmm.

837
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:47,200
- ...when we were...
- Mmm-hmm.

838
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:48,680
I'm sorry, this is horrible.

839
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,976
I... I can't...
No, I can't be a part of this. Thank you.

840
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,040
- Sorry. Thanks.
- Amy, no.

841
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:53,195
Amy.

842
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:54,360
Amy. No.

843
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:55,880
Oh, she's so passionate, you know.

844
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,000
Amy!

845
00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,112
I'm so sorry. She will be back.

846
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,271
But if she isn't, um,

847
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,512
I'll step in. I do know all about love.

848
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,194
Amy!

849
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:14,955
What'd I miss?

850
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,550
People crying because their kids died.

851
00:49:19,720 --> 00:49:21,756
Hmm. Uh...

852
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:27,038
Uh, there's a thing called
bereavement hallucinations.

853
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:28,360
Yes.

854
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:29,754
Right. Um. Okay.

855
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,349
So, uh...

856
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,118
I looked them up.

857
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,788
And here's the thing. I don't sleep.

858
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,000
Okay.

859
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,077
Like, not a lot.

860
00:49:40,240 --> 00:49:41,719
I mean, I sleep.

861
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:43,549
Mmm.

862
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:48,712
But I get six or seven hours a week.

863
00:49:49,240 --> 00:49:51,196
Now that I think about it,
that's probably why...

864
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:52,360
Why what?

865
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:54,194
Um...

866
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,070
I'm having conversations.

867
00:50:03,240 --> 00:50:04,559
Mmm-hmm.

868
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,159
I mean, conversations.

869
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:12,239
Okay.

870
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,838
It's okay. Never mind. Um...

871
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,270
- Howard?
- Yeah.

872
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:22,951
You wanna have a conversation with me?

873
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:26,039
Uh, yes.

874
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,592
So, I assume you're a part of the 79%?

875
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:33,955
Mmm?

876
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:38,034
Of couples who get divorced
after losing a child.

877
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:39,992
Yeah.

878
00:50:40,240 --> 00:50:41,240
Mmm.

879
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:42,793
Yeah, me too.

880
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:46,959
Do you still love her?

881
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,108
I don't even know what love is anymore.

882
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:55,112
Do you still love him?

883
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,038
We never fell out of love.

884
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,155
At least, I don't think so. It's just...

885
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:02,429
We can...

886
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,637
The day our divorce was final,
he sent me this.

887
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,913
"If only we could be strangers again."

888
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:23,752
Now we are.

889
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,709
The most romantic gesture he ever made.

890
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,230
So, to answer your question,

891
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:32,909
yes,

892
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:34,513
I still love him.

893
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:44,758
What did you mean

894
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:46,616
when you said
you were having conversations?

895
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:47,640
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

896
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,756
- Conversations with who?
- Um...

897
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:51,953
It's not "who."

898
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:53,348
It's really... It's...

899
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,511
You're gonna think I'm crazy.

900
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:56,680
Try me.

901
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,996
Um, can I show you?

902
00:51:59,720 --> 00:52:03,349
"Dead tissue
that won't decompose."

903
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,471
He was sitting right here.

904
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:11,037
Just a mean, little, arrogant thug.

905
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,672
And he was the first one
that appeared, right?

906
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,031
Uh, no. Death came first.

907
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:19,953
She met me in the dog park.

908
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,478
Oh, so Death is a "her"?

909
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:27,118
Uh, yeah. It turns out
Death is an elderly white woman.

910
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:30,393
What was the trade?

911
00:52:31,240 --> 00:52:33,754
You said Death wouldn't make the trade.

912
00:52:34,240 --> 00:52:35,240
What does that mean?

913
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,197
When we realized our...

914
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,839
My daughter was dying, I prayed, uh...

915
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:47,039
Not to God or the universe, but to Death.

916
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:48,918
I offered a trade.

917
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:50,752
Take me,

918
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,592
leave my daughter.

919
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:59,073
But she didn't wanna make the trade, so...

920
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,278
So, who won that round?

921
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:22,357
You or the porcelain?

922
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,432
Porcelain.
Porcelain's undefeated.

923
00:53:27,240 --> 00:53:29,754
I'm sorry about that,
I thought everyone left.

924
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,115
Yes, they did. But I'm here to close up.

925
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:33,315
Good.

926
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:34,600
You need help getting home?

927
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:36,473
No. I'm fine.

928
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:38,592
I'm... I'm good.

929
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:41,388
I Googled you.

930
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:42,600
- You did?
- Yeah.

931
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:43,760
Oh, God.

932
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:45,791
You came from nothing.

933
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,636
You put yourself through Duke,

934
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,156
you married a wonderful woman,

935
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:52,594
you're a loving father.

936
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:54,990
So, you lived well. You lived right.

937
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,468
But, my friend, you're not dying right.

938
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,638
Are you gonna tell me how to die?

939
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,353
Have you told your family yet?

940
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,675
- Mmm-mmm.
- You're not helping them.

941
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,753
You're just denying them
what is rightfully theirs.

942
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,239
Yeah? And what's that?

943
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,914
Pain? Atrophy? Disease?

944
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:19,513
Yes. Yes.

945
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:21,159
All of it.

946
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,988
And the chance to say goodbye.

947
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:28,669
Stick to acting.

948
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:37,753
Okay.

949
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,633
I have something
that I haven't told anyone.

950
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,676
It doesn't involve letters
or angels or anything like that,

951
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:47,154
but it means something to me.

952
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:56,233
They were preparing Olivia to say goodbye.

953
00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:01,233
And my husband was trying to
calm my mother in the parking lot

954
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,237
because she lost it.

955
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:06,837
So I was alone

956
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,672
and I was sitting there
in the waiting room

957
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:12,796
at Maimonides Hospital.

958
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:16,872
And there was this woman
who sat next to me.

959
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,793
And she asked me who I was about to lose.

960
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,752
And I told her.

961
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,396
And she looked at me and she said,

962
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:31,914
"Just be sure to notice

963
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,230
"the collateral beauty."

964
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:38,035
I mean, she...

965
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,074
She said it so casually.

966
00:55:43,240 --> 00:55:44,992
In the next room,

967
00:55:45,720 --> 00:55:49,235
my six-year-old daughter
was being taken off life support.

968
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,873
And this woman says "collateral beauty."

969
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:59,514
People don't know
what to say in those moments.

970
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,433
No, she did.

971
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,155
I just didn't get it at the time.

972
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,997
See, it wasn't said out of
sympathy or awkwardness.

973
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,515
It was from experience.

974
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:16,312
About a year later,

975
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,949
something started to
happen to me, you know.

976
00:56:20,240 --> 00:56:22,993
I would be walking
or on the subway, whatever,

977
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,720
and I would just burst into tears.

978
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,598
But these weren't Olivia tears.

979
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,718
These were tears born from something else,

980
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:41,120
from this kind of profound
connection to everything.

981
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,513
And I realized

982
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,270
it was the collateral beauty.

983
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:53,833
I mean, there's...

984
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:58,151
There's no such thing
as collateral beauty.

985
00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,958
There is, Howard.

986
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:02,678
There really is.

987
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,670
It'll never bring her back.

988
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:12,677
And it will never ever make it okay.

989
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:18,919
But I promise you, it's there.

990
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:27,033
Okay.

991
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:30,990
You need to talk to them, Howard.

992
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:32,354
Look, um...

993
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:34,320
Appreciate your story,

994
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:37,358
but I'm not really feeling
the "collateral beauty" thing.

995
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:38,839
I don't care!

996
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,997
Yell at them,
reason with them, challenge them.

997
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:44,991
Just engage!

998
00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:58,870
I think this was a mistake.

999
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,068
- Hi.
- Hi.

1000
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,117
What're you doing here?

1001
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,158
Uh, Brigitte told me this is
where I could find you.

1002
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:22,548
Of course she did.

1003
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,592
Could we just go and talk somewhere
for 15 minutes by ourselves?

1004
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:28,880
I'm... I'm actually working.
I'm rehearsing right now.

1005
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:30,638
- You're rehearsing here, too?
- Yeah.

1006
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:32,720
How many projects
are you doing at the same time?

1007
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:34,508
I'm currently doing three.

1008
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:35,720
Three. Wow.

1009
00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:37,040
- Yeah.
- That's really busy.

1010
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:38,720
How are we gonna fit a dinner date in?

1011
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:39,760
Whit...

1012
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:42,116
Listen, listen, listen. Seriously...

1013
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:47,195
I have to ask you
to reconsider what you said last night.

1014
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,154
We need you one more time.

1015
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:51,639
Just give us one more scene.

1016
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:53,478
I am out.

1017
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:54,640
Amy, what do you...

1018
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:56,280
Wait, what can I say? What do you...

1019
00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:59,150
I'll give you $100,000. Not 20, 100.

1020
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:00,912
You don't have $100,000.

1021
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:02,520
You're right. I live with my mother.

1022
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:05,360
But this is gonna work, and when it does,
I'll have much, much more.

1023
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:06,640
And I'll give you a million.

1024
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:08,400
- I don't want your money.
- I really will.

1025
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:09,480
I do not want your money.

1026
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,640
Do you know,
I've actually never wanted your money.

1027
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,718
What can I say to get you to do this?

1028
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,792
Because there's so much more
at stake here, you have no idea.

1029
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,274
Oh.

1030
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:21,592
You have a daughter, right?

1031
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:22,988
Yeah.

1032
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:24,519
Did we talk about that?

1033
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,278
Tell me what it was like
the day that she was born.

1034
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:29,555
What?

1035
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:31,756
What it felt like for you.

1036
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:34,830
Uh, it was scary.

1037
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,236
It was very scary. I was terrified.

1038
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,277
But then they gave her to me

1039
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:46,433
and I had the most amazing
sensation run through me.

1040
00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:51,713
It... I can't...

1041
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:53,109
What? Finish it.

1042
00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:55,191
It sounds... It's goofy.

1043
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:56,628
No, it doesn't sound goofy.

1044
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,696
Do you know, actually,
this is the first time that I felt

1045
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,312
any attraction towards you, whatsoever.

1046
01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:01,913
- Really?
- Yes.

1047
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:05,837
I looked at her and I...

1048
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,709
I realized that I wasn't feeling love.

1049
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,597
I had become love.

1050
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:18,114
She doesn't talk to me now, though.

1051
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,875
She blames me for the divorce,
and so she's angry at me.

1052
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:24,269
And...

1053
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:26,469
I deserve it.

1054
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,351
I'm gonna make you a deal.

1055
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,672
If you can take all of this,

1056
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,630
frankly, aggressive determination

1057
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,749
and extraordinary openness

1058
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,792
and use it on winning your daughter back,

1059
01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:48,880
then I'll do it.

1060
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:52,553
It's a deal.

1061
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:56,954
See, you don't feel that?

1062
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,112
Oh, wow. Give me my hand back.

1063
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:01,716
You feel that though, right?
You feel it?

1064
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:03,136
- That's sparks.
- Goodbye, Whit.

1065
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:04,160
That's what that is.

1066
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,870
Hey! What's up?

1067
01:01:58,040 --> 01:01:59,871
- What?
- You got something to say?

1068
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:09,633
You got something you wanna say?

1069
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:11,856
Oh, yeah. I got a lot of things
I'd like to say to you.

1070
01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:13,996
Well, say it. Say it!

1071
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:16,472
See, you just waste time.

1072
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,636
See, I give you a gift
and you just waste it!

1073
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:22,120
I don't care about time.

1074
01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,158
This is a prison sentence!

1075
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:26,715
I don't want your gift!

1076
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,310
Because you took hers.

1077
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:08,879
Oh, come on.

1078
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:10,559
Are you here to take me?

1079
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,558
No, Howard.
I'm here to ride the F train with you.

1080
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:15,040
Oh, okay.

1081
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:19,512
So, there are these two twins
in a womb, a boy and a girl.

1082
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:20,908
You telling a joke?

1083
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:22,513
No, no. It's a story.

1084
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:24,193
So, these twins are happy.

1085
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,595
They're fed, they're warm, they feel safe.

1086
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:28,751
But they're outgrowing their space

1087
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,113
and they realize this can't go on forever.

1088
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:33,872
So they start thinking,

1089
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:36,431
"What comes next?

1090
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,239
"What if it's cold or lonely?

1091
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:40,594
"What if we're not together?

1092
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:43,919
"What if there's nothing at all?"

1093
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:49,548
So, then the girl looks at the cord.

1094
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:52,069
This cord that has fed them,
has nourished them,

1095
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:54,629
this cord that they
can't possibly conceive

1096
01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:57,109
could be attached to anything else.

1097
01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:58,759
And she says,

1098
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:01,559
"Well, we have no proof.

1099
01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:03,073
"All we have is this."

1100
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:05,440
No.

1101
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:07,439
Wow, that's deep.

1102
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,319
So, it's like life after birth.

1103
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:12,234
Hopeful.

1104
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:14,313
All right, what do you want?

1105
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:16,553
Why are you here?

1106
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:18,631
I've heard all of your platitudes.

1107
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:19,949
I got them, I know.

1108
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:21,473
"She's in a better place."

1109
01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:24,438
And, "This is all
a part of a master plan."

1110
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:25,749
Heard that one, too.

1111
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,109
Here's my favorite.

1112
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:30,750
"God looked down and
saw the most beautiful rose,

1113
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:32,797
"so beautiful that he picked it

1114
01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,679
"to have it in Heaven all for Himself."

1115
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,116
Then there's the science, biocentrism,

1116
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:42,636
and we're all living and dying
in infinite universes

1117
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:44,472
all at the same time.

1118
01:04:44,640 --> 01:04:45,755
And then the religion,

1119
01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:47,672
the Christians and their salvation,

1120
01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:51,310
and the Buddhists and their Samsara,
and the Hindus and their 41 st sacrament.

1121
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:52,959
And can't forget the poetry.

1122
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:54,519
Oh, the poetry.

1123
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:57,672
"To die is different
from what anyone supposed

1124
01:04:57,840 --> 01:04:59,034
"and luckier."

1125
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:00,315
Whitman.

1126
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:02,630
And, "Rage...

1127
01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:04,597
"Rage against the dying of the light.

1128
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:08,275
"Though wise men at their end
know dark is right."

1129
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:10,317
Thomas. And then...

1130
01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:14,029
Row, row, row your boat
gently down the stream

1131
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:15,997
Merrily, merrily
merrily, merrily

1132
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:20,676
Life is but a dream

1133
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:21,989
I got it.

1134
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:23,479
I got it!

1135
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:29,511
It all basically says
that you're a natural part of life,

1136
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:33,559
we shouldn't hate you,
we shouldn't fear you.

1137
01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:36,473
I guess we should just accept you, right?

1138
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:38,039
That's it?

1139
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:41,636
I get it. Here's the thing.

1140
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,318
It's all a bunch of intellectual bullshit

1141
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:50,197
because she's not here
holding my fucking hand.

1142
01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:01,999
Oh, Lord, what a beautiful city

1143
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:09,193
Oh, Lord, what a beautiful city

1144
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,517
Twelve gates to the city

1145
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:13,715
Hallelujah

1146
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:16,394
Amen, amen

1147
01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:18,039
Who are all those children

1148
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:23,270
All dressed up in white

1149
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:26,393
Hi, Howard.

1150
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:31,919
You gonna cry again?

1151
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:33,680
You don't like it when I'm sad?

1152
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:36,035
- Ah, aren't you always sad?
- No.

1153
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:37,952
No, I can be other things. I can be happy.

1154
01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:41,237
- I can be unexpected and unpredictable...
- Huh.

1155
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,755
...and sexy and warm and mysterious and...

1156
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:46,758
And home.

1157
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:49,150
I can be home, Howard, you remember?

1158
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:50,909
Do you remember me?

1159
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:54,920
Listen. All the "fabric of life" bullshit,
save that for somebody else.

1160
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,075
It's not bullshit.

1161
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,880
I know you don't believe me,
but you have to trust me.

1162
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:00,274
Trust you?

1163
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:02,113
- Trust you?
- Yes!

1164
01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,077
I did trust you!

1165
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:06,552
And you betrayed me!

1166
01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:10,590
I saw you every day in her eyes,

1167
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,913
and I heard you in her voice
when she laughed,

1168
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:17,436
and I felt you inside of me
when she called me "Daddy."

1169
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:20,239
And you betrayed me!

1170
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:23,396
You broke my heart.

1171
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:25,754
No.

1172
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:28,951
I'm in all of it.

1173
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:30,360
I'm the darkness and the light,

1174
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:31,959
I'm the sunshine and the storm.

1175
01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:33,120
Yes, you're right.

1176
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:34,952
I was there in her laugh,

1177
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:39,076
but I'm also here now in your pain.

1178
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:43,197
I'm the reason for everything.

1179
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,590
I am the only "why."

1180
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:49,635
Don't try and live without me, Howard.

1181
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:52,239
Please don't.

1182
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:37,992
The deal with Omnicom's almost done.

1183
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:39,999
What about Howard?

1184
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:41,536
Well, they're aware of the situation

1185
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,518
but we still have to prove
that Howard's ability to vote

1186
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:46,200
is, uh, compromised.

1187
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:48,557
I can't believe it's come down to this.

1188
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:50,153
Yeah, well, believe it.

1189
01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,439
We have a competency meeting
with the board set for Thursday.

1190
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,991
We're here to give you
a chance to explain this.

1191
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:09,230
Howard, what are you doing in this video?

1192
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,597
I do not care about time.

1193
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:15,716
This is a prison sentence!

1194
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:19,270
I don't want your gift!

1195
01:09:19,440 --> 01:09:21,000
What are you doing, Howard?

1196
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:23,552
Because you took hers.

1197
01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:25,794
Howard?

1198
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:27,632
You gonna cry again?

1199
01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:30,550
Aren't you always sad?

1200
01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:31,789
What about here?

1201
01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:33,920
Listen.
All the "fabric of life" bullshit,

1202
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:35,518
save that for somebody else.

1203
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:41,594
Trust you?

1204
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:43,879
Trust you?

1205
01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:46,154
I did trust you!

1206
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:49,390
I committed everything to you

1207
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,471
and you betrayed me!

1208
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,597
I saw you every day in her eyes,

1209
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:01,559
and I heard you in her voice
when she laughed.

1210
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:03,576
And I felt you inside of me...

1211
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:04,600
Howard?

1212
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:06,233
...when she called me "Daddy."

1213
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:07,400
Howard?

1214
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:08,788
You broke my heart.

1215
01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:12,077
Howard, I need you to answer me.
Who are you shouting at here?

1216
01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:14,536
I've heard all of your platitudes.
I got them, I know.

1217
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,120
Um, it's not "who."

1218
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:18,856
And, "This is all
a part of a master plan."

1219
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:19,995
I'm sorry, what?

1220
01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:21,240
I got it.

1221
01:10:21,440 --> 01:10:23,749
Howard, did you say something?

1222
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:26,309
I'm not talking to people.

1223
01:10:26,480 --> 01:10:30,109
Well, that's obvious.
Who are you talking to?

1224
01:10:34,440 --> 01:10:35,680
Howard, who are you talking to?

1225
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:38,030
That's enough. It's enough.

1226
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:39,872
Thank you.

1227
01:10:40,480 --> 01:10:41,959
You made the point, I think.

1228
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:44,871
Just turn it off.

1229
01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,110
You hired people to follow me?

1230
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:01,519
Make video?

1231
01:11:01,680 --> 01:11:03,830
No, that wasn't the initial intention.

1232
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:05,638
No, we did.

1233
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:07,360
Yeah, we did.

1234
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,600
We did a lot more than that, Howard.

1235
01:11:10,480 --> 01:11:12,198
Howard, I'm so sorry.

1236
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:13,679
We felt like...

1237
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:15,159
We didn't know what else to do.

1238
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,709
- Claire.
- No. I can't do this anymore.

1239
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,310
I can't do this anymore, Whit.

1240
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,194
Listen, I really...

1241
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:24,191
I didn't even think that
it was gonna work.

1242
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:26,320
- Really, honestly, I...
- Claire. Claire. Claire.

1243
01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:28,078
I'm so sorry.

1244
01:11:28,480 --> 01:11:30,600
- All right, all right, all right.
- Howard...

1245
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:37,193
I'm obviously not
in the right state of mind.

1246
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:41,670
Maybe none of us are.

1247
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:43,831
You think I haven't noticed?

1248
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:49,832
I mean, Claire,

1249
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:54,278
you dedicated
your entire life to this agency.

1250
01:11:54,440 --> 01:11:56,237
You made us your family

1251
01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:58,709
when you could have been
starting your own.

1252
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,389
And, uh, you've been
absolutely killing yourself,

1253
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:04,039
covering for me,

1254
01:12:04,440 --> 01:12:05,953
and I appreciate that.

1255
01:12:07,440 --> 01:12:09,954
Thank you.

1256
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:13,551
And, Simon,

1257
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:16,911
you've done your best
to hide it from everyone,

1258
01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:18,718
but I know your history.

1259
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:22,270
And I suspect I'm making
an already impossible situation

1260
01:12:22,480 --> 01:12:24,072
even worse for you.

1261
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:28,199
I promise you,

1262
01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:31,868
as long as I am here,

1263
01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:34,793
your family will be cared for.

1264
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,153
Thank you.

1265
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:42,754
Whit.

1266
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:47,070
Best friend I've ever had.

1267
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:50,554
But I'm disappointed in you, man.

1268
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:53,274
I mean, not for... Not for this.

1269
01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:55,793
Not for this.

1270
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:03,278
You don't need her permission
to be her father.

1271
01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:11,357
Allison's the best thing
you got happening in this world,

1272
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,309
and tomorrow's not promised.

1273
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:20,673
Do you hear me?

1274
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:27,431
You guys did the right thing.

1275
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:31,594
I want our agency to survive.

1276
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:33,392
Something should.

1277
01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:35,878
All right, um...

1278
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,311
I'll sign the papers now.

1279
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:45,639
Your approval of the sale.

1280
01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:54,631
Uh, the other one?

1281
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:59,195
The one you called me
six times to have me sign.

1282
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,396
Um, I assume you have it here with you.

1283
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:08,553
I am sorry, Howard.

1284
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,031
This is the right thing.

1285
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:32,439
I'm telling you, this is the right thing.

1286
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,194
Excuse me.

1287
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:48,916
What was that second piece of paper?

1288
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:53,036
Howard put some of his ownership
into a trust in his daughter's name.

1289
01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:57,391
It's just a legal certificate
saying she's no longer with us.

1290
01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:04,596
I think I need a drink.

1291
01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:21,991
Are you okay?

1292
01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:51,070
"They say that the time in Heaven

1293
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:56,349
"is compared to the blink of an eye

1294
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:58,670
"for us on this Earth.

1295
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:07,069
"Sometimes I think of Adam running

1296
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:10,193
"through a beautiful field
of wild flowers.

1297
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:23,548
"He's so happy,
completely caught up in what he's doing.

1298
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:30,879
"But then he looks back

1299
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,195
"like he used to do
when he ran ahead of me

1300
01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:36,874
"in airports or malls or wherever.

1301
01:17:42,480 --> 01:17:44,391
"And he smiles."

1302
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:46,080
Jesus.

1303
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:50,233
"Because the blink of his eye
was the rest of my life

1304
01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:54,714
"and I'm right there behind him."

1305
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,110
Anyway, it's a first draft.

1306
01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:04,593
It's beautiful.

1307
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:06,873
Really beautiful.

1308
01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:11,435
Does anybody else wanna say anything?

1309
01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:16,037
Okay, I guess that's all for tonight.

1310
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:21,153
Thank you.

1311
01:18:47,520 --> 01:18:48,839
Sorry, sorry.

1312
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:51,760
Yo!

1313
01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:54,080
I can't believe you made me
come into this neighborhood

1314
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:56,276
carrying $20,000 in cash.

1315
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:58,313
What are you gonna do with it?

1316
01:18:58,480 --> 01:19:00,311
You should put it aside for acting school.

1317
01:19:00,480 --> 01:19:01,674
You were really good.

1318
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:04,116
Mmm. I'm gonna use it
to buy designer drugs.

1319
01:19:04,440 --> 01:19:05,998
Or that, too.

1320
01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:07,229
Yeah.

1321
01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,309
Hey, you gonna make a good mom one day.

1322
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:18,834
Yeah?

1323
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,998
Yeah, well,
that's pretty much not in the cards.

1324
01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,390
I decided against the science

1325
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:28,111
and it seems time
finally caught up with me.

1326
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:33,719
There was this dust dealer up on
187th who gave me Brave New World.

1327
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:36,429
That book turned hours into seconds.

1328
01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:38,272
He was my father.

1329
01:19:38,440 --> 01:19:39,919
And there was this homeless woman

1330
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:42,150
who lived under
the University Heights bridge.

1331
01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:43,469
Her name was Flora.

1332
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:47,036
She was batshit crazy,
but she told me the greatest stories.

1333
01:19:47,440 --> 01:19:48,440
She was my mother.

1334
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:51,519
See, Claire,

1335
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:54,830
your children don't have to come from you.

1336
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:56,558
They go through you.

1337
01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:02,670
So, I wouldn't consider
the battle with time over just yet.

1338
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,559
I thought time wasn't linear.

1339
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:07,119
I thought it was an illusion.

1340
01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,712
Maybe
that was just bullshit, Claire.

1341
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:15,831
Maybe that was just acting.

1342
01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:48,269
- Hey, Allison.
- Come on, let's go.

1343
01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:50,558
Oh. Come on. Allison!

1344
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:52,593
I'll meet you guys there.

1345
01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:57,116
I don't wanna talk to you. You know that.

1346
01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:58,360
Leave me alone.

1347
01:20:58,520 --> 01:20:59,748
No. I won't leave you alone.

1348
01:20:59,920 --> 01:21:01,194
- No?
- No.

1349
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:03,755
I know you're angry at me,
and that's okay.

1350
01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:04,960
I can take it.

1351
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:08,590
But we gotta talk about it
because that's what you do in a family.

1352
01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:12,270
So I'm gonna come here every day
and embarrass you in front of your friends

1353
01:21:12,440 --> 01:21:13,475
until you talk to me.

1354
01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:15,074
So you're gonna stalk me?

1355
01:21:15,280 --> 01:21:16,952
Well... Yes, basically.

1356
01:21:17,120 --> 01:21:18,416
Well, what if I get a restraining order?

1357
01:21:18,440 --> 01:21:20,096
Well, I don't think you're
gonna be able to do that.

1358
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:21,473
Well, I'll get Mom to pay for it.

1359
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:23,471
Well, for your information, they're free.

1360
01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:25,278
Well, then I'll get you to pay for it.

1361
01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:30,394
I really love you.

1362
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:33,438
Mom says you butcher that word.

1363
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,398
Not when I say it to you.

1364
01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:37,353
Look...

1365
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:40,478
I can't fly you to Maine for lunch

1366
01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:42,074
or get you picked up in a Tesla

1367
01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:44,470
and take you to your internship
with Anna Wintour

1368
01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:46,915
or whatever the hell
they do in this neighborhood.

1369
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:51,989
But I think that you and me
can sit on a park bench

1370
01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:54,071
and tell jokes
and have a pretty good time.

1371
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:58,510
I can't believe
you're gonna stalk me.

1372
01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:03,714
But, um...

1373
01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:06,995
Just so you know, tomorrow's a half-day.

1374
01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:09,992
Well, I'll be here then.

1375
01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:30,989
Hey.

1376
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:35,553
Here you are.

1377
01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:41,239
I've been waiting a long time
for my moment for validation,

1378
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:42,549
and this was it.

1379
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:46,269
An audience of one,
in secret, with no applause.

1380
01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:56,760
I told my wife.

1381
01:22:57,240 --> 01:22:58,719
Oh, how did it go?

1382
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:00,314
She knew.

1383
01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:03,356
She's getting ready for it.

1384
01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:10,713
You know, when I was younger,
I used to think,

1385
01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:14,551
you really wanna live to be 100 years old?

1386
01:23:15,160 --> 01:23:17,071
You know, like a shriveled up raisin.

1387
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:20,552
And the answer to that now

1388
01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:22,799
is yes.

1389
01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,351
Because my son would be 70,

1390
01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:28,593
his son would be 40,

1391
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:30,557
and his son would be 10.

1392
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:34,390
And I would be the man, you know.

1393
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:36,319
Pops.

1394
01:23:38,480 --> 01:23:41,756
Could get used to that, you know.

1395
01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:45,510
See you around, Pops.

1396
01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:50,276
I wish I could be here to see the play.

1397
01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:53,953
Oh, no, no.
The play is dead after all this.

1398
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:56,757
But you never know,

1399
01:23:56,920 --> 01:24:00,037
nothing's ever really dead
if you look at it right.

1400
01:24:45,480 --> 01:24:46,708
Hey.

1401
01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:48,315
Hey.

1402
01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:50,719
Uh, it's Christmas Eve.

1403
01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:52,839
Mmm-hmm.

1404
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,197
And you're alone.

1405
01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:56,520
By choice.

1406
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:58,996
Can I ruin that?

1407
01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:51,992
You've been crying.

1408
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:57,038
I was watching a video
I took of my daughter.

1409
01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:00,911
She's dancing with her father in it.

1410
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,830
Can I show it to you, Howard?

1411
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:30,232
My daughter's name was Olivia.

1412
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:35,956
She died of a rare form of brain cancer

1413
01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:38,953
known as Glioblastoma Multiforme,

1414
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:41,111
or GBM for short.

1415
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:44,597
She was six years old.

1416
01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:49,719
What was your daughter's name, Howard?

1417
01:27:03,760 --> 01:27:06,752
"If only we could be strangers again."

1418
01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:11,754
What was your daughter's name, Howard?

1419
01:27:15,480 --> 01:27:16,959
I can't.

1420
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:20,479
I... I can't.

1421
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:39,837
Swing me faster!

1422
01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:45,030
Faster, Daddy! Faster!

1423
01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:55,509
Howard...

1424
01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:57,280
I feel like a bird.

1425
01:27:57,560 --> 01:27:59,232
Say her name.

1426
01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:07,398
What was her name?

1427
01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:10,713
Olivia.

1428
01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:19,919
Her name was Olivia.

1429
01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:26,031
How did she die?

1430
01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:38,479
She had a rare form of cancer
called Glioblastoma Multiforme,

1431
01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:41,914
or GBM for short.

1432
01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:46,356
She was only six years old.

1433
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:57,110
Her name was Olivia.

1434
01:28:57,600 --> 01:29:01,513
She had a rare form of cancer
called Glioblastoma Multiforme,

1435
01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:02,954
or GBM for short.

1436
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:04,917
She was only six years old.

1437
01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:16,635
Our baby's name was Olivia.

1438
01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:21,394
She was only six years old.

1439
01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:33,271
What are you guys doing?

1440
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:38,718
You ready? You ready?

1441
01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:40,632
Go, go!

1442
01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:49,791
Now we start all over again.

1443
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:51,359
You ready?

1444
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:53,192
We start all over again.

1445
01:30:48,960 --> 01:30:51,030
Are you losing somebody?

1446
01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:54,513
I'm sorry?

1447
01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:57,031
Who are you losing?

1448
01:31:01,600 --> 01:31:05,559
Um, my daughter.

1449
01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:12,719
Just make sure you notice
the collateral beauty.
