Original subtitles

Hey there.

I'm here to talk about something that's been swirling

around the news and social media lately.

Drag queens.

Yep. Those fabulous performers who dazzle us with their

charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent.

But recently, there's been a lot of chatter about how

America views them.

Some people think drag queens are, well, horrible people.

But what if we took a closer look at these accusations?

What if these drag queens actually followed through on

the crimes they're being accused of?

First, let's get one thing straight.

A lot of the of the negative views come from

misunderstanding and fear.

People often fear what they don't understand.

But imagine, if you will, a world where drag queens were

actually committing these crimes.

The idea that a drag queen

would harm others is absurd, right?

Because at the end of the day, drag queens are performers.

They're artists who use their platform to entertain, educate,

and sometimes provoke thought.

They're not out there plotting

to take over the world or harm anyone.

But let's play devil's advocate for a moment.

Imagine if these accusations were true.

If drag queens were these so-called villains, what would

that look like?

Would they be involved in elaborate heists using their

costumes and makeup as disguises?

Unlikely. Would they be masterminding plots to corrupt

the youth?

Pretty far fetched.

Now contrast that with the reality.

Drag queens are often on the front lines of charity work.

They raise money for LGBTQ+ causes, support mental health

initiatives, and promote inclusivity and acceptance.

They use their platform to make the world a better place, not a

worse one.

So why the villainization?

It's rooted in prejudice and a lack of understanding.

When people don't understand something.

Their imagination can run wild, leading to fear and suspicion.

But let's think about the victims here.

The real victims, drag queens who face harassment,

discrimination and violence simply for being who they are.

Imagine living in a world where

your passion and art make you a target.

That's the reality for many drag queens.

So next time you hear someone vilify drag queens, think about

what's really going on.

Are these performers truly villains, or are they victims

of a society that struggles to

accept what it doesn't understand?

I hope this gives you some food for thought, and maybe, just

maybe, a bit more understanding and empathy for those dazzling

queens who bring so much joy and color into our lives.

Make sure you continue watching and remember it's always better

to understand than to fear.

[Upbeat dance music]

Thank you for calling IT Solutions.

This is Ezra.

How may I assist you?

I've tried several times to troubleshoot this before

calling, but the computer

doesn't want to map the printer.

Okay. No worries.

Um, just allow me to send you this link that'll share your

screen with me so I can see what's going on.

Sure.

There you go. You should have it now.

Just, just hit accept.

Okay.

Thank you. Okay.

So let's see what's going on here.

Ah, I see what the issue is.

Well, the way you were trying to map the printer is not the

correct process.

- What? - But not to worry.

All you have to do is open the printer server,

and locate the printer.

Is this the name labeled on the printer?

Yes. It's the one that ends with p27.

Wonderful.

Alright, just double click here.

And there you go.

It's been added.

How do I know it works?

I got you.

I'm going to go ahead and send you a test page now.

Did it print?

Oh, yeah. It did.

Okay. Yeah, it should work from now on.

Thank you so much.

Not a problem.

Glad I was able to help.

Okay. You have a good day. Thanks again.

Hey, mom.

Boy, Why haven't I heard from you in a month of Sundays?

You too busy to call your mother?

I've just been super busy, that's all.

Huh?

Come on Ma, don't be like that.

Okay.

So how are you doing?

I'm all right.

Did you finish up your therapy sessions?

Yes, mother.

I've completed all of my sessions.

Yes.

Good. That's good to hear.

Well, I'm glad you're doing okay.

You sound in good spirits.

Yeah, I'm just keeping my head

low and staying focused, that's all.

Good.

Well, I'm glad to hear your voice.

I'll let you go then.

Okay, mom.

- I love you. - Love you too, baby.

Talk to you later.

Yeah, for sure I will.

Take care now.

All right, mom.

[Soft music]

[Upbeat music]

What a time to be alive.

When passion turns into a career.

And when a career leads to your passion.

One can only imagine.

If the world falls in love with your passion.

[Music continues]

Little do we know.

Little do we try.

Little one, you can't always rely.

That time is on your side.

[Upbeat music]

[Indistinct]

[Applause]

Next time keep your shit in your section.

And make sure you keep your 5:00 shadow.

In its own section.

Bitch!

Oh, how sweet.

Girl, bye.

Be nice, Levi.

I didn't start anything, this time.

Just make sure you cash out tonight, okay?

Yeah, yeah, I got you.

I see y'all Thursday.

I'm starting to think that you stalking me, sir.

Just enamored by your beauty, that's all.

Oh. How cute.

If only I had $5 for every dude who's told me that.

Then I guess you wouldn't be that rich, huh?

Excuse me.

It was a joke.

You don't look like a comedian to me.

Touche.

Can I take you to get something to eat?

Do I look like I'm hungry?

So do you enjoy performing?

It pays my bills somewhat.

No, but do you actually enjoy it?

I get a kick out of entertaining the girls.

But what about you? Do you enjoy it?

Well, I can say I'm very entertained.

Is that right?

What? Is there something else you want to ask?

Do I have permission to ask?

You do?

Are you gay or are you just a tranny chaser?

Tranny chaser?

Is that even politically correct?

No, but you seem a little old school, so I guess I.

Old school?

Alright.

Is there anything else I forgot?

No. I'm good, thank you.

So, what makes me so interesting?

Interesting would not be the word to describe you.

Okay. So.

Exquisite.

Hold up.

You aren't one of those Jeffrey

Dahmer type individuals, are you?

No. I'm not.

I just find everything about you fascinating, honestly.

Well, I appreciate that.

So what's next for you?

What do you mean?

Like, do you ever think beyond performing clubs in Phoenix.

This. This is all I know.

Come on. Don't be so small minded.

Seriously?

It's no disrespect.

It's just what you have to offer.

The city won't accept it. Won't appreciate it.

And who are you, sir?

What makes you the end all be all?

I'm nobody.

I just know what I see and,

what I see is priceless.

So how'd you get your drag name?

My drag name?

Uh, well, I'm originally from Jacksonville, Florida.

So that's where I got Jax.

And you already know diamonds are a girl's best friend.

From the icon herself, Miss Marilyn Monroe.

So I gave myself the name Jax Diamonds.

Impressive.

So what's next?

Well, you can take me home, and hopefully we can reconnect

another time.

You sure that's all you want?

Yeah. What, you thought this was?

A date.

A proper connection.

Yeah. Okay.

Let's go.

Hey, do you mind stopping over at this corner store?

No, I don't mind.

[Suspenseful music]

What, am I taking too long?

Nah. You got a message I think you should see.

So we going through phones now?

Let's not be so dramatic.

The message popped up on your phone, bro.

Whatever.

Hey.

Open the register right now.

What?

Open the fucking register now!

- Hurry up. - Okay, okay.

Shit!

What is it?

Is somebody else in here?

Is somebody else in here?

Wait. No, don't. I have kids.

You want to see them again tonight?

Then do what I'm fucking telling you to do.

Okay.

Is somebody.

[Shouting]

[Gunshot]

Oh fuck!

Fuck!

Fuck!

I know somebody's back there.

Come on out!

[Suspenseful music]

Don't you fucking move!

Oh shit. Uh, take it easy, bro.

Take it easy, man.

- You ain't seen nothing. - We ain't seen shit.

Shut the fuck up!

- We ain't seen shit. - Nothing.

You seen too much already?

Like you said, we ain't seen shit.

And I told you to shut the fuck up!

[Shouting] [Grunting]

Hey, give me that.

[Gunshot] [Shouting]

Are you okay?

We can't just leave her here like this.

There's nothing you can do, Levi.

Let's go.

We have to at least call the

police or 9-1-1 or something.

Look the fuck around.

We're black. They're white.

This is Arizona.

Think! The police are gonna be here any minute.

They're gonna arrest us.

What are you doing?

What do you think?

Rent is due and we didn't do any of this.

So I'm taking a little something from Uncle Sam.

Seriously? Let's go.

Fuck!

What the fuck was that?

Relax. You act like you haven't stolen anything before.

Actually I haven't.

You wasn't acting so scared when you was pulling the

trigger, though.

Nigga, it was either us or them.

Well, I'm glad it wasn't us.

We didn't have a choice.

Everybody has choices.

You're right. And I chose us.

Just make a right up here.

[Laughter]

What the hell?

Why you busting up in here like the police?

What's going on?

It's a lot to explain.

And now is not a good time.

Is that blood on your face, Levi?

And I got your text.

At least you got the soft kind.

What's going on?

And who is this in my doorway?

Standing here standing here looking like a lost lamb.

Levi. Who is your friend?

I'm sorry.

My name is Ezra.

Well. Hey, Ezra, what's going on?

Can you mind your fucking business for once?

Hey, guys.

Bitch! As long as you're under

this roof, your business is my business.

I won't.

Oh!

Shit.

What do you mean?

You witnessed people getting shot and murdered.

Bitch! I said what I said.

But why did you come here.

Bitch? My shit is here.

Where else would I go?

Bitch, Sesame Street for all I care, but not.

Oh my God, Levi, it's just like.

Well, at least I have rent.

Well, at least you got two months worth of rent now.

You did something good here.

Oh, what the hell?

Look, at sleeping beauty waking up.

Hey,

are you all right?

Yeah. Um, I guess my adrenaline just kicked in late.

So what the fuck y'all gonna do?

Act normal and figure out what we need to do.

Now that's the dumbest idea I've ever heard.

Well, what are we supposed to do.

Bitch, I don't know, I ain't never murdered nobody.

Then shut the fuck up.

Look, can we go to your place?

Because I can't deal with his thousand and one question.

Yeah.

You can keep on stomping around here like Effie if you want to.

Oliver. We're leaving.

We'll come back when things cool down.

Aren't you tired?

If it ain't for the drugs, the liquor, the men.

You had a good gig up there making good money, Levi.

Why would you mess all of that up?

Not everybody plays it safe in life like you, Oliver.

Why don't you just fucking live a little?

Not the way you live.

You're gonna end up dead.

You better take care of him.

Look, I didn't ask for any of this.

He is your responsibility now.

[Pop music]

You all right?

Can we just go, please?

So we're just gonna ignore what your friends said back there.

Friend?

Oliver.

He's my roommate.

I wouldn't classify him as a friend.

He's more like an acquaintance.

Oh, but,

that's some pretty strong words back there.

Oliver always thinks he's Oprah.

Yeah but I saw how deeply his words affected you.

Can we just not have this conversation and go, please?

All right.

Shoes off.

Well, all right then.

What.

Nice place.

Make yourself at home.

Okay.

A wine bar. I see you.

[Running water]

Hey, uh, can I use a towel?

Um, yeah.

Uh, it's in the closet right next to

the guest bathroom down the hall. On your left.

Thank you.

[Running water]

[Soft music]

You hungry?

[Music continues]

Fuck.

[Music continues]

Here.

It'll help relax your mind.

Thanks.

So what do you do?

Information technology.

IT.

Okay.

What did you do before you started doing drag?

I've always wanted to be a performer.

There's just nothing else I'd rather do.

Have you ever decided to be a performer before?

Hell, no.

I don't have the mental capacity to be on stage.

I'm sure you got it in you.

Everybody does.

And what about your family?

I'm sorry. You don't have to answer that

if that's too personal.

It's okay.

It's okay.

My mother really wasn't pleased that her only son was gay and

stealing her clothes.

At first she thought it was my sister,

but then she realized it was me.

So the word family,

has always been a painful one for me.

I'm sorry to hear that.

But what about you?

Oh, shit I've had my fair share of problems.

It's just.

My dad was hard on me.

Uh it was so bad I had to fight my way outside of his house.

But I never really classified myself as anything.

So it's just.

Never been a label type of situation for me.

So are you, like, asexual or something?

No. Um.

Trust me, I definitely enjoy sex.

Well, I'm glad that I'm not the

only fucked up individual in Phoenix.

Cheers.

You are not alone.

[Soft music]

In other news, two suspects are at large as a local Phoenix gas

station on 16th Street, and Osborn was held at gunpoint.

The gunmen killed the store clerk during the robbery, who

has now been identified as Rosa

Miller, as she leaves behind two children.

But in a turn of events, the robber was stopped by two

unidentified individuals that were seen at the scene.

Police are seeking answers and the whereabouts of those

unidentified men.

If you have any information, please call our news tip line.

You all right?

They just posted our

surveillance footage on the news.

What?

We gotta figure some shit out.

Okay, okay, okay.

Just relax.

We can just go straight to the police and explain everything.

Are you fucking thinking?

I am, actually.

You don't appear to be.

Do you remember what you said at the corner store?

We are two black men.

They are white people.

Do you know how fast they will

lock our asses up in a heartbeat?

And where are you going?

- To work. - Seriously?

With everything going on, you're going

to a public place with everyone looking for us.

Look, I have never missed a

performance, and I won't start today.

[Soft music]

Get in the car, please.

You can leave.

Come on now stop playing.

Get in the car.

[Soft music]

Is there something you want to say to me?

Oh, so we have the ability to be petty.

Look, I don't take kind to people telling me what to do.

I've never done well with that.

[Piano music]

- A regular. - Thank you, Tony.

Of course.

I'm just glad you are okay.

What are you talking about?

You haven't been watching the news?

I haven't.

Your face is all over it.

What the hell are you doing here, Levi?

I've never missed a show.

Bitch this is not the place to be.

The cops have been all up and down here.

Tony, go to the front door.

Be on the lookout and let me know if you see any cops.

Okay.

Bitch, this just might be your last performance.

Well.

If it is, I might as well make it a good one.

Later, girl.

Well tear the house down, okay?

Tear the motherfucking house down.

Coming to the stage with a surprise performance.

Jax Diamonds.

Do you know how much that shit cost?

I work in IT, remember?

And that's the quickest way for them to find us.

Fuck!

Shit.

Where are we going?

We have to get out of the city limits.

But where are we going?

I have some folks in Tucson we can link up with, but first we

need to get some rest.

Are you sure you want to sleep on the side of the road?

No. There's a motel coming right up there.

Is this the best that we could afford?

We? Nigga, I spent the last bit of money.

I had to get us this hotel room.

Least you could fucking say thank you.

Thanks.

I could sure use a drink right now.

Say less.

Would you look at that?

How did we?

Just don't.

Don't what?

Don't start blaming yourself for shit you didn't do.

How can you say that?

Look, now's not the time to start feeling guilt, man.

Just take accountability for your actions.

Well. All right, Dad.

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

Nothing.

Nah. Speak your mind.

Didn't I tell you I don't do well taking demands?

Nobody's demanding anything.

Then change your fucking tone.

Okay. Right.

So I'm supposed to sugarcoat shit for it to sink in?

No. Don't talk down to me.

Then look up, motherfucker.

You know what?

I don't have to take this.

No.

You don't.

[Soft music]

You know, with all that beauty,

your attitude can make you look ugly.

Thank God beauty is in the eye of its beholders.

And tell me again, how many beholders do you have?

You don't have to be an asshole.

No, but the guys like you seem to like assholes.

Hang on their every word while

nice guys let me get shitted on.

Only for you to circle the block after you've been fucked

over by your fuckboy

What are you smiling at?

I'm not smiling. It was a smirk.

Okay, smirk.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah.

Would you answer it honestly?

Why would I not?

I don't know.

What's your question?

So what type of person do you see yourself with?

What do you mean?

You know, like a partner or a lover?

Mhm. I never really saw myself

with anyone, to be honest with you.

- Really? - Yeah.

You know, I've always been told I'm either standoffish or cold

type shit.

Mm.

What's your zodiac sign?

I'm a Capricorn.

What about you?

Virgo.

Ah, shit.

[Laughter]

What do you mean?

Hold up. I know you're not talking.

Caps. Caps, from what I've heard, are the worst.

Not like them Virgos, nigga.

Whatever. Shut the fuck up.

You know I'm right.

Whatever.

No, but for real, though, to answer your question, um, I'd

want to be with someone who's unapologetically themselves.

You know. Someone to love on me.

When I can love on myself.

Someone to encourage me.

When I can't encourage myself.

That's the type of partner I want to be with, you know?

What about you?

What kind of partner do you want to be with?

Most of what you said I can relate to, but there's just

something about

a hug or a warm body that just cherishes all my flaws, no

matter what.

And someone,

who I just,

I just can't think,

of being without. You know?

You know, that's the type of partner that I want.

[No audio]

Okay, so how are we gonna do this?

I'm trying to think.

Here you go.

Oh. Uh uh.

Fuck, no!

Hear me out.

You can't fucking be serious.

How else are we gonna do this?

I'd rather just walk in there

and force them to give me the gas.

With what?

Shit.

Listen to me.

We are already, all over the news.

If we are able to walk in there with this stuff on and fake

like we got guns, we have a better chance of getting what

we need.

This shit is fucking crazy, man.

The longer we wait here, the

further down the road we can get.

Okay.

- Okay. - Okay.

Let's hurry up.

How do you put this shit on.

That's not fucking funny, man.

Okay.

All right, so how are we gonna cover our faces?

We don't have time for that here.

Here, put these on.

God I look fucking ridiculous.

Don't move!

Don't you mother fucking move.

All clear.

All right sir, I need 60 on pump eight now!

Hurry up!

Don't move.

What the fuck are you doing?

What? We're gonna need food for later.

Come on.

I said do not move.

If I have to tell you one more motherfucking time.

I will put a bullet in your motherfucking head.

Now get on the ground! Now!

[Dramatic music]

Oh shit. That was nerve wracking.

You didn't seem to care when you was playing hungry, hungry

hippos with them snacks back there.

Oh. Shut up. Whatever. Let's go.

Why are we in an alley?

Because the cops will be watching the front, genius.

Okay. Calm down.

Let's go.

[Knocking on door]

Auntie.

[Knocking]

Auntie. Auntie. Auntie.

Boy! What the hell?

Get in here.

Whole damn city looking for y'all.

Izzy, what the hell have you gotten yourself into?

There's no explanation, Auntie.

Wrong place, wrong time.

You damn right it was.

And you, young man, you don't know how to speak.

I'm sorry, ma'am, I didn't want to interrupt.

Interrupt what? A greeting?

I already know this knucklehead boy.

You is who I don't know.

- Ease up, Auntie. - Ease up?

You think them crackers are gonna ease up off your necks?

Your mama worried sick about you.

I told her you got a good head on your shoulders and you'll

figure it out.

Y'all hungry?

Yes, ma'am.

If you don't like it, say something.

I'm sorry.

It's been a long time since I've had a home cooked meal.

So why ain't you eating?

I just can't seem to focus on food with everything that's

been going on right now.

Well, darling, you might want to, because you look like you

two pieces of bread from falling over.

Auntie.

It's okay.

It's. It's fine.

Y'all homosexuals like to stay fit as long as y'all can, huh?

What?

Oh, boy, I ain't stupid.

Y'all lovers.

No, no we're not, Auntie.

Boy, who are you fooling?

You remember your Uncle Charlie and his friend Marlin?

- Yeah. - They were lovers.

- What? - Oh, yeah.

For many years, they used to take your mama and me out to

the clubs, and we had the time of our lives.

It's unfortunate, all that mess

you had to go through with your daddy.

Your mama had your back, though.

I'm just glad you ain't end up all fucked up.

I'm not so sure about that.

This shit here will pass.

Excuse me. Can I use your restroom?

Sure, darling. Second door on the right.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

You really care about him, huh?

I do.

Here.

Take this.

Auntie, what is this?

Just take it. Y'all gonna need it.

Thank you.

Where are y'all plan to go?

We're still trying to figure that out now.

Mexico. Y'all need to go down there and hide out for a little

bit until y'all can sneak back in.

How the hell are we gonna do that?

I got a friend in Nogales who

can help you get across the border.

What? Really?

Mhm.

Okay.

Listen to me now.

When you get to Nogales, look

for a little club called Ruby's.

There's a guy named R.J..

Tell him Ida sent you.

He owed me a favor.

Thank you so much, Auntie.

- I love you. - I love you too, baby.

You all right?

Look, I'm sorry.

I don't mean to be closed off to you, Auntie.

I remember a family is a painful word for you.

You remembered.

Can I take you out for a real?

- Now? - Yeah.

Where?

Well, this is my old stomping grounds.

I know a few lucky spots we can hit up.

But what about your auntie?

Two shots of tequila gets her right for her beauty rest.

She's already in bed.

Let's go.

[Soft music]

So, what do you think?

It's cute.

Listen.

I had to snag some shit from my aunt to make this happen.

Boy, she's gonna kill you.

Nah, she'll be all right.

I had to do something special for you.

Then,

let me see what you can do.

That's too special for me.

I don't dance.

You're black.

You gotta have some type of rhythm.

It's in your blood.

It's in your DNA.

Sorry to break it to you, but

not all black folk know how to dance.

Okay?

I know you have it in you.

You just gotta move your hips.

Mhm. Just like that.

Yeah. Mm.

Problem is,

I don't even know if I know how.

I felt those hips move.

So I know you know what to do with them.

Is that so?

- Just like this. - Like that?

Uh huh.

Swing back and forth.

Mhm.

Nice and soft.

Oh, dear.

Doing pretty good.

For a beginner.

Out of all the things to experience at this time, in my

mind, I would think things

would have turned out a little different.

Yet I find myself attracted to a nigga that I would have never

gave the time of day to.

Ooh, Lord.

You sure like to play games, huh?

I just hope you know what you're doing.

[Soft music]

Life can sure give you lemons, but I would love to keep

tasting his lemonade.

Am I allowing myself to be too open?

I already cried in front of this nigga.

I would hope he knows I'm serious,

Uh, I think I'll just keep playing hard to get until he

shows me otherwise.

[Sirens]

Ida Richardson it's officer

Turner from Tucson Police Department.

Open the door, please.

Habla espanol?

What? Are you serious?

Oh my God.

Hey, fellas. Do we have a translator?

[Calm music]

Oh, the sunsets in Arizona are

always so freakin beautiful, man.

Yep.

If you had to give me a drag

name, what would my drag name be?

What is the name of the first pet you ever had?

My mom used to have this little dog named Sasha.

She was an evil little fucker.

Okay.

And the first street you ever grew up on.

Masters Boulevard.

Okay.

Sasha Masters.

- Seriously? - Yeah.

That's your drag name?

Sasha masters.

[Laughter]

You know what?

Maybe one of these days we could do a show together.

Uh uh.

I don't do co-stars and I don't do backup.

I'm the headliner, darling.

Either you come to see me or nobody at all.

Whatever.

So how are we going to get over this border?

My aunt said she had someone out there

that's supposed to be helping us out.

Are you sure they're gonna be able to help us?

Trust, my aunt don't play.

She said she got somebody.

She got somebody.

Period.

To be everything and nothing is what I admire.

How you've opened up to me is everything I desire.

Am I what you really want?

You allowed me that freedom.

A space to be myself.

Explore all avenues to ensure my mental health.

I feel safe.

I feel wanted.

Am I what you envisioned?

[Cars passing]

[Sirens]

Shit.

Fuck.

I don't think we're gonna make it.

What are we gonna do?

[Radio chatter]

I can't believe this.

We're gonna have to run for it.

Yo, I can see the border from here.

I'm pulling over, and we're gonna have to run for it.

What?

[Dramatic music] [Sirens]

[Gunshots]

What the fuck are they shooting for?

Fuck this.

[Gunshots] [Dramatic music]

How much further do we have to go?

[Dramatic music]

[Crying]

Enough. We have you killing a

man and robbing a convenience store.

So why don't you just confess so we can wrap this up?

If you keep telling lies, you're digging yourself an even

larger hole.

I ain't saying shit without my lawyer.

Suit yourself.

But you ain't leaving here until we have answers.

Hey, now your buddy is over in the next room telling it all.

So why won't you put a ribbon on it so we can seal the deal?

Tell me which one of y'all did

this, and maybe we can cut a deal.

I ain't saying shit without my lawyer.

Well, fuck you, buddy.

You're gonna sit your ass here

until we get to the bottom of this.

Hey.

What?

If we get caught,

we have to have each other's back. Okay?

For sure.

Why would you say that?

Well, if they start

interrogating us, which they will.

Don't say shit until you start speaking with a lawyer.

- Okay. Who told you that? - My aunt.

She said they're not allowed to hold us unless they have proof.

But they do.

Only the gas station robbery.

That's all they got.

And the other one was self-defense.

Yes. And you be sure to remember that.

Okay?

Okay.

Trial of the century is kicking off.

Ezra Richardson and Levi Armstrong, also known as the

Drag Bandits, are pleading self-defense and guilty to one

count of armed robbery.

The prosecutors are saying they have evidence to put them away,

but the defense is saying otherwise.

Stay tuned on this developing story.

Oh shit. That was nerve racking.

You didn't seem to care when you was playing

Hungry, Hungry Hippos with them damn snacks back there.

Shut the fuck up. Let's go.

All clear.

Stop moving!

Get on the ground now!

I said shut the fuck up!

Um. Excuse me. Can I use your bathroom?

Sure. Second door on the right.

Thank you. Excuse me.

Baby.

You really care about him, don't you?

[Laughter]

The ice got in my mouth.

- I'm sorry.

He took too long to move that damn chair.

I was trying not to laugh.

That chair said.

I was trying to crunch my ice.

I was holding on to breath like that chair was on your ass.

I had issues forcing myself to feel something that I'm not

feeling, and wanting to do a

good job and wanting to be the best.

And how that could be sometimes difficult to do, because it's

like you don't want to let people down.

And I feel like.

- But you're thinking about it for the wrong reasons.

Yeah. And that's I think that's

where I, that's where I pulled from.

It's like the fight,

to understand that nothing is perfect.

You can't be perfect.

All you can be is perfectly imperfect.

Yourself. Being yourself is just enough.
