00:05:52,311 --> 00:05:55,564
- Simon says shimmy.
- (laughter)

157
00:05:55,606 --> 00:05:56,940
Simon says stop.

158
00:05:56,982 --> 00:05:58,609
What on earth is he doing?

159
00:05:58,650 --> 00:06:00,736
Looks like he's heading
to the cookies.

160
00:06:00,778 --> 00:06:01,921
GABI: He walked right through
a room full of girls

161
00:06:01,945 --> 00:06:03,447
and didn't look up once.

162
00:06:03,489 --> 00:06:04,698
He's so odd, that one.

163
00:06:04,740 --> 00:06:06,492
Handsome, though. And single.

164
00:06:06,533 --> 00:06:07,635
- GABI: With hair.
- ELIANA: Lots of hair.

165
00:06:07,659 --> 00:06:08,994
GABI:
And his father has his hair.

166
00:06:09,036 --> 00:06:11,014
- TALIA: And he's not married?
- MIDGE: No, not married.

167
00:06:11,038 --> 00:06:12,682
Guess it was hard to find
a nice girl in prison.

168
00:06:12,706 --> 00:06:15,042
- Prison?
- Oh, yes. Just got out.

169
00:06:15,084 --> 00:06:17,044
That's impossible.
For what?

170
00:06:17,086 --> 00:06:19,421
Only... (whispers)
...murder.

171
00:06:19,463 --> 00:06:20,631
- (women gasp)
- No.

172
00:06:20,672 --> 00:06:22,925
Killed an entire family,
and then left a bill.

173
00:06:22,966 --> 00:06:24,277
Because he's a doctor.
He expects to get paid

174
00:06:24,301 --> 00:06:25,385
for his services.

175
00:06:25,427 --> 00:06:26,863
That's how they caught him.
His surcharges.

176
00:06:26,887 --> 00:06:28,680
Only one man in New York
charges that much

177
00:06:28,722 --> 00:06:30,724
- for a cotton ball.
- Simon says clap your hands.

178
00:06:30,766 --> 00:06:33,102
You're kidding.

179
00:06:33,143 --> 00:06:34,686
Yes.

180
00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:36,271
(laughter)

181
00:06:36,313 --> 00:06:38,107
MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, Steinerites.

182
00:06:38,148 --> 00:06:39,542
Will Miriam Mazel please report
to building five?

183
00:06:39,566 --> 00:06:41,360
What's building five?

184
00:06:41,401 --> 00:06:43,338
- Miriam Mazel to building five.
- That's that new building over there.

185
00:06:43,362 --> 00:06:44,530
- Where?
- Be right back.

186
00:06:44,571 --> 00:06:47,199
Simon says spin like a dreidel.

187
00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:49,618
(indistinct chatter)

188
00:06:53,872 --> 00:06:55,833
Paging me now, are you?

189
00:06:55,874 --> 00:06:57,835
Well, the kid who usually
sneaks you my messages

190
00:06:57,876 --> 00:06:59,086
swallowed some lake water

191
00:06:59,128 --> 00:07:00,480
and his head blew up
like a balloon.

192
00:07:00,504 --> 00:07:02,089
- That's terrible.
- I know.

193
00:07:02,131 --> 00:07:03,608
He's so much harder
to understand now.

194
00:07:03,632 --> 00:07:05,008
Mmm, fries.

195
00:07:05,050 --> 00:07:07,427
It's been a real suck my
donkey dick kind of day, boy.

196
00:07:07,469 --> 00:07:09,364
Thought I had a line on a gig
for you at Grossinger's,

197
00:07:09,388 --> 00:07:10,931
but it was a bust.

198
00:07:10,973 --> 00:07:13,475
Then Lawrence Feldstein tells me
they had a cancellation

199
00:07:13,517 --> 00:07:14,893
at the small room at Kutshers,

200
00:07:14,935 --> 00:07:16,287
but that turned out
to be bullshit, too.

201
00:07:16,311 --> 00:07:18,063
- What are you looking for?
- Ketchup.

202
00:07:18,105 --> 00:07:21,400
I'm calling everyone I know,
just not having any luck.

203
00:07:21,441 --> 00:07:22,651
What's going on with you?

204
00:07:22,693 --> 00:07:24,361
Oh, my day's been crazy.

205
00:07:24,403 --> 00:07:25,713
This morning was
waffle breakfast day,

206
00:07:25,737 --> 00:07:27,340
which is very popular,
and people get nuts.

207
00:07:27,364 --> 00:07:29,134
You have to rush
the condiment table really quick

208
00:07:29,158 --> 00:07:31,136
if you want to get your topping
before your waffle gets cold.

209
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,078
After waffles, I lost $2.00

210
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,496
to Dorothy Kulgberg
at ping-pong.

211
00:07:34,538 --> 00:07:36,290
Took a class on how to do
a Cleopatra eye,

212
00:07:36,331 --> 00:07:39,084
which I soon discovered is
one look I cannot pull off.

213
00:07:39,126 --> 00:07:40,728
Then, right before I fucked up
Simon Says,

214
00:07:40,752 --> 00:07:42,337
I had to rush back
to the cottage to get

215
00:07:42,379 --> 00:07:44,399
my brother and sister-in-law's
room ready for their arrival,

216
00:07:44,423 --> 00:07:45,733
and I completely lost track
of time

217
00:07:45,757 --> 00:07:47,134
and missed my pastels class.

218
00:07:47,176 --> 00:07:48,802
Oh, I wanted to take
pastels class.

219
00:07:48,844 --> 00:07:51,263
- Really?
- No. I don't give a fuck about pastels class.

220
00:07:51,305 --> 00:07:53,265
Do you hear yourself?
Who has a day like that?

221
00:07:53,307 --> 00:07:55,058
What are you,
the lost Gabor sister?

222
00:07:55,100 --> 00:07:56,911
You should be walking around
with a boa and a Pomeranian.

223
00:07:56,935 --> 00:07:58,061
Someone's crabby.

224
00:07:58,103 --> 00:07:59,479
I'm not crabby.

225
00:07:59,521 --> 00:08:01,291
I'm hanging out in the woods
trying to find you a gig.

226
00:08:01,315 --> 00:08:03,585
Very similar to what I do back
in New York, but with ticks.

227
00:08:03,609 --> 00:08:05,529
- And that's why you're grumpy?
- I'm not grumpy.

228
00:08:05,569 --> 00:08:07,672
- You seem grumpy.
- I just want to land one of these gigs.

229
00:08:07,696 --> 00:08:09,656
- That's it?
- Yeah, that's it.

230
00:08:12,034 --> 00:08:14,244
Plus, the other day,
I turn around for a second

231
00:08:14,286 --> 00:08:16,288
and somebody grabbed
my plunger and uses it.

232
00:08:16,330 --> 00:08:18,600
- Oh, no.
- Doesn't even look to see if it belongs to anybody.

233
00:08:18,624 --> 00:08:19,893
The fuckin' tag was still on it.

234
00:08:19,917 --> 00:08:22,794
- I'm so sorry.
- Miriam, why are we still here?

235
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:24,689
I'm making call after call,
nothing's happening.

236
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:26,006
I'm completely out of change,

237
00:08:26,048 --> 00:08:27,424
and now I have to
disguise my voice

238
00:08:27,466 --> 00:08:28,484
every time I make
a long-distance call.

239
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,552
Why?

240
00:08:30,594 --> 00:08:32,387
Mort Sahl is at the Copa.

241
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,865
Freddy Roman is
at Basin Street East.

242
00:08:33,889 --> 00:08:35,641
Buddy Hackett's at
the Blue Angel.

243
00:08:35,682 --> 00:08:36,892
Your best friend Lenny Bruce

244
00:08:36,934 --> 00:08:38,494
is at Upstairs
at the Downstairs next week.

245
00:08:38,518 --> 00:08:40,103
You know what the common
denominator is?

246
00:08:40,145 --> 00:08:42,022
Those comics are out there
working at clubs.

247
00:08:42,064 --> 00:08:44,524
You're up here in the woods
pretending to be a pony.

248
00:08:44,566 --> 00:08:47,277
And who the fuck takes somebody
else's plunger and uses it?!

249
00:08:47,319 --> 00:08:49,029
What kind of a sick freak
does that?!

250
00:08:49,071 --> 00:08:50,739
I know. I'm sorry.

251
00:08:50,781 --> 00:08:54,451
- What?
- Nothing.

252
00:08:54,493 --> 00:08:55,887
My badminton team
made the semifinals,

253
00:08:55,911 --> 00:08:57,537
and the tournament's
in 25 minutes.

254
00:08:57,579 --> 00:08:59,349
I have to do my pregame
stretches, otherwise I'll...

255
00:08:59,373 --> 00:09:01,792
- Go.
- Fine.

256
00:09:04,628 --> 00:09:07,214
MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, any employee

257
00:09:07,256 --> 00:09:08,882
who wants to lead a game
of freeze tag

258
00:09:08,924 --> 00:09:12,552
this afternoon on the main lawn,
see Gil at lunch.

259
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:24,773
(mouthing)

260
00:09:28,568 --> 00:09:30,487
My parents gave us
matching burial plots

261
00:09:30,529 --> 00:09:31,655
for our anniversary.

262
00:09:31,697 --> 00:09:32,948
Oh, that's so nice.

263
00:09:32,990 --> 00:09:34,574
One less thing
you have to think about.

264
00:09:34,616 --> 00:09:36,743
- Where are they?
- Florida.

265
00:09:36,785 --> 00:09:38,620
I would love to be buried
in Florida.

266
00:09:38,662 --> 00:09:40,372
Doesn't it sound
wonderful, Rose?

267
00:09:40,414 --> 00:09:43,208
You being buried in Florida?
I guess it does.

268
00:09:43,250 --> 00:09:46,253
- Mama...
- She asked a question, I answered a question.

269
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:48,171
Moishe's insisting
we get buried in Israel.

270
00:09:48,213 --> 00:09:50,465
I could never be buried
in the desert.

271
00:09:50,507 --> 00:09:52,092
Oh, I do like dates, though.

272
00:09:52,134 --> 00:09:53,969
I never want
this conversation to end.

273
00:09:54,011 --> 00:09:55,345
Time to put you under.

274
00:09:55,387 --> 00:09:56,781
- Leave it alone.
- SHIRLEY: Okay, girls,

275
00:09:56,805 --> 00:09:58,849
talk loud enough
so I can hear.

276
00:09:58,890 --> 00:10:00,809
I don't want to miss
anything juicy.

277
00:10:00,851 --> 00:10:03,186
GOLDIE:
Mrs. Maisel, are you still here?

278
00:10:03,228 --> 00:10:05,188
Oh. There's a call for you.

279
00:10:05,230 --> 00:10:09,401
Oh. Me? Thank you.

280
00:10:09,443 --> 00:10:12,446
- Hello?
- Miriam Maisel, Mrs. O'Toole.

281
00:10:12,487 --> 00:10:14,573
Oh, hello, Mrs. O'Toole.

282
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:16,509
I know you're on vacation,
but two girls are out sick,

283
00:10:16,533 --> 00:10:18,327
and one quit after I fired her.

284
00:10:18,368 --> 00:10:20,871
I'm shorthanded. If you can
get here by 3:00 today,

285
00:10:20,912 --> 00:10:22,831
I can put you
at the Revlon counter.

286
00:10:22,873 --> 00:10:25,709
- The Revlon counter?
- The Revlon counter. Can you get here?

287
00:10:25,751 --> 00:10:27,627
Yes, I can. I will.

288
00:10:27,669 --> 00:10:29,564
We're talking about the same
Revlon counter here, right?

289
00:10:29,588 --> 00:10:31,399
There's not a secret counter
on the loading dock

290
00:10:31,423 --> 00:10:33,091
or next to the incinerator,
is there?

291
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:36,011
There's only one Revlon counter
at B. Altman.

292
00:10:36,053 --> 00:10:37,387
- I will see you at 4:00.
- 3:00.

293
00:10:37,429 --> 00:10:40,057
3:00. Better. 3:00.
Thank you.

294
00:10:40,098 --> 00:10:41,558
I'm back in the show.

295
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,143
What? What show?

296
00:10:43,185 --> 00:10:44,620
There's an opening
at the Revlon counter,

297
00:10:44,644 --> 00:10:46,605
but I need to get back
to the city by 3:00.

298
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:49,566
- Is Papa going back today?
- No. He has no reason to.

299
00:10:49,608 --> 00:10:51,902
Shoot. Bus.
I could take a bus.

300
00:10:51,943 --> 00:10:54,780
- Have you ever taken a bus?
- No, but how hard can it be?

301
00:10:54,821 --> 00:10:56,365
Get on and sit.
I can get on and sit.

302
00:10:56,406 --> 00:10:59,743
Who has a bus schedule?
Anyone have a bus schedule?

303
00:10:59,785 --> 00:11:01,995
What's going on? Who died?
Am I missing something?

304
00:11:02,037 --> 00:11:03,330
No, Shirley, you're not.

305
00:11:03,372 --> 00:11:04,539
How much would a cab ride be?

306
00:11:04,581 --> 00:11:05,916
- A lot?
- Yes.

307
00:11:05,957 --> 00:11:07,834
- Can I walk?
- Have you lost your mind?

308
00:11:07,876 --> 00:11:09,628
It's the Revlon counter, Mama.

309
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:12,464
My son's going back today.
You could ride with him.

310
00:11:12,506 --> 00:11:14,758
- Benjamin?
- Oh, that's all right, she's gonna walk.

311
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,927
- Mama, please.
- Miriam, remember, he wouldn't row.

312
00:11:16,968 --> 00:11:18,470
I only care if he can drive.

313
00:11:18,512 --> 00:11:19,906
Just because he can
doesn't mean he will.

314
00:11:19,930 --> 00:11:21,973
A-Are you sure
he's going back today, and soon?

315
00:11:22,015 --> 00:11:24,101
Every year, Benjamin comes
to the Catskills

316
00:11:24,142 --> 00:11:25,477
with a box of cereal.

317
00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:27,479
When the cereal's done,
he goes home.

318
00:11:27,521 --> 00:11:29,564
He had his last bowl
this morning.

319
00:11:29,606 --> 00:11:31,376
Would you like me to ask him
to drive you back?

320
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,652
- Do you think he'd mind?
- Not at all.

321
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:34,921
I doubt
he'll even know you're there.

322
00:11:34,945 --> 00:11:36,863
Perhaps if you were
a box of cereal.

323
00:11:36,905 --> 00:11:38,424
I'll call him and tell him
you'll meet him in the driveway.

324
00:11:38,448 --> 00:11:40,909
May I have the phone?
You better hurry.

325
00:11:40,951 --> 00:11:42,994
He really hates
the Catskills.

326
00:11:43,036 --> 00:11:45,330
Thank you, Ida.
Thank you so much.

327
00:11:45,372 --> 00:11:46,873
Mama, I'll be back
as soon as I can.

328
00:11:46,915 --> 00:11:48,625
Ugh.

329
00:11:48,667 --> 00:11:50,335
Spray me.

330
00:11:51,503 --> 00:11:53,213
Thanks.

331
00:11:53,255 --> 00:11:55,924
Revlon counter!

332
00:11:57,426 --> 00:12:00,220
She really likes makeup.

333
00:12:00,262 --> 00:12:02,264
(indistinct chatter)

334
00:12:04,641 --> 00:12:07,102
- Abe.
- One moment, Jerome.

335
00:12:07,144 --> 00:12:09,563
There's a new indentation
on the left side

336
00:12:09,604 --> 00:12:10,665
of the middle third
of the table.

337
00:12:10,689 --> 00:12:11,690
Were you aware of that?

338
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:13,316
It's just a game, Abe.

339
00:12:13,358 --> 00:12:16,111
Oh, well, why play at all
if it's just a game?

340
00:12:16,153 --> 00:12:17,863
- Oh, boy.
- I play to win.

341
00:12:17,904 --> 00:12:19,614
And to win,
I need information.

342
00:12:19,656 --> 00:12:21,199
I need to determine
my best angles,

343
00:12:21,241 --> 00:12:22,868
velocity, wind resistance.

344
00:12:22,909 --> 00:12:25,579
We're inside, Abe.
There is no wind resistance.

345
00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:27,205
Ha, ha, you'd like me
to believe that,

346
00:12:27,247 --> 00:12:28,874
wouldn't you, Jerome?

347
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:32,878
Now, let's make sure
this is regulation length.

Enough with
the showing off already.

359
00:13:02,991 --> 00:13:05,660
It's not showing off, it's just
being a god amongst men.

360
00:13:05,702 --> 00:13:06,953
You're amazing, Joel.

361
00:13:06,995 --> 00:13:08,288
All those pins
just flying around

362
00:13:08,330 --> 00:13:09,831
like they were
scared of your ball.

363
00:13:09,873 --> 00:13:12,125
- Could you teach me to do that?
- I can teach you.

364
00:13:12,167 --> 00:13:14,419
How he hell are you gonna
teach her? You can't bowl.

365
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:16,588
If I can't...
and I'm not saying I can't...

366
00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:18,381
it's only because
I'm spending too much time

367
00:13:18,423 --> 00:13:20,133
running my own
very successful business.

368
00:13:20,175 --> 00:13:21,468
You have your own business?

369
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:22,844
- Aluminum siding.
- What's that?

370
00:13:22,886 --> 00:13:24,739
It's what you use
to beat yourself to death with

371
00:13:24,763 --> 00:13:26,199
while Robbie tells you
about his business.

372
00:13:26,223 --> 00:13:27,390
(women laugh)

373
00:13:27,432 --> 00:13:29,518
And it's his
father's business, FYI.

374
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,979
- You should talk.
- True. I work for my father.

375
00:13:33,021 --> 00:13:34,564
He manufactures women's clothes.

376
00:13:34,606 --> 00:13:35,857
- Really?
- Shit.

377
00:13:35,899 --> 00:13:37,442
- Do you get discounts?
- Of course.

378
00:13:37,484 --> 00:13:39,569
- Teach me to bowl, Joel.
- It's pretty easy.

379
00:13:39,611 --> 00:13:42,614
I know nothing. I wouldn't know
where to put my fingers.

380
00:13:42,656 --> 00:13:45,992
She wants me to show her
where to put her fingers.

381
00:13:46,034 --> 00:13:48,495
My chances are fair to good.
Let's play.

382
00:13:48,537 --> 00:13:49,788
Thank God.

383
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:51,790
Listen to me,
you mashugana alta kaka.

384
00:13:51,831 --> 00:13:55,126
You do not tell me
what I should know! I know!

385
00:13:55,168 --> 00:13:56,711
I want what I paid for.

386
00:13:56,753 --> 00:13:58,797
You hear me,
you goddamn schvantz?

387
00:13:58,838 --> 00:14:01,091
Hold on. Hello, putz.

388
00:14:01,132 --> 00:14:04,553
You cheating, lying...
No, no, no, don't even try to...

389
00:14:04,594 --> 00:14:08,139
Abi gezunt dos leben
ken zikh ale mol nemen.

390
00:14:08,181 --> 00:14:09,808
I will not retract that!

391
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:12,269
- Moishe.
- Hold on. You need a phone?

392
00:14:12,310 --> 00:14:14,020
No, I don't need the phone.

393
00:14:14,062 --> 00:14:16,356
You shouldn't be
conducting work up here.

394
00:14:16,398 --> 00:14:18,358
That is not what
the Catskills is for.

395
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,235
- It's not.
- No.

396
00:14:20,277 --> 00:14:21,945
The Catskills
is a time to unwind.

397
00:14:21,987 --> 00:14:23,280
It's a sanctuary from work.

398
00:14:23,321 --> 00:14:25,740
- Do you see us working?
- I do not see you working.

399
00:14:25,782 --> 00:14:27,552
- There you go.
- I don't see you doing anything.

400
00:14:27,576 --> 00:14:30,287
I see two men
standing around a toy.

401
00:14:30,328 --> 00:14:31,746
It is not a toy.

402
00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:34,082
I apologize if my work
has upset your playtime,

403
00:14:34,124 --> 00:14:35,417
but in my business,

404
00:14:35,458 --> 00:14:37,377
we're not so lucky to get
the whole summer off,

405
00:14:37,419 --> 00:14:38,795
like some people.

406
00:14:38,837 --> 00:14:40,463
We don't have ivory towers

407
00:14:40,505 --> 00:14:42,549
and uncalloused hands.

408
00:14:42,591 --> 00:14:46,761
In my business, a man sweats
and stinks till he dies.

409
00:14:46,803 --> 00:14:48,847
All right, thank you
for explaining that to me,

410
00:14:48,888 --> 00:14:52,976
but I have to insist that you stop
yelling into two telephones...

411
00:14:53,018 --> 00:14:55,353
because, clearly,
yelling into one isn't enough...

412
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:57,355
while other people
are trying to relax.

413
00:14:57,397 --> 00:14:59,316
All right, I'm sorry.

414
00:14:59,357 --> 00:15:02,319
I'll tell the two thieves
who were trying to take food

415
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,154
out of my family's mouth
that they win.

416
00:15:04,195 --> 00:15:05,864
- Thank you.
- They can continue

417
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:08,116
to rape and pillage
as they see fit.

418
00:15:08,158 --> 00:15:09,385
You're still holding two phones.

419
00:15:09,409 --> 00:15:13,038
Fuck you.
I'll call you back. Good?

420
00:15:13,079 --> 00:15:14,372
Great.

421
00:15:16,458 --> 00:15:19,085
- If you'll excuse me.
- JOEL: So you hold the ball up.

422
00:15:19,127 --> 00:15:20,587
RUTHIE:
It's so heavy.

423
00:15:20,629 --> 00:15:22,130
It's seven pounds.
It's a turkey.

424
00:15:22,172 --> 00:15:23,381
You make a turkey?

425
00:15:23,423 --> 00:15:26,926
I make a great turkey.
You would love my turkey.

426
00:15:26,968 --> 00:15:28,678
I'm allergic to turkey.

427
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,222
So, anyhow, you walk up
to the edge of the lane

428
00:15:31,264 --> 00:15:34,934
and throw the ball
toward the pins.

429
00:15:34,976 --> 00:15:36,853
Wow.

430
00:15:36,895 --> 00:15:38,313
You're a natural.

431
00:15:38,355 --> 00:15:41,107
MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, Mrs. Greenstein,

432
00:15:41,149 --> 00:15:43,151
your husband is waiting for you
on the main porch.

433
00:15:43,193 --> 00:15:45,612
He says he'll wait
five more minutes.

434
00:15:47,739 --> 00:15:49,115
- Hi.
- Hello.

435
00:15:49,157 --> 00:15:50,408
Thank you so much for this.

436
00:15:50,450 --> 00:15:52,077
You have no idea
how important this is.

437
00:15:52,118 --> 00:15:53,846
Yes, I heard something
about the Revlon counter.

438
00:15:53,870 --> 00:15:55,723
Well, it's more about where
the Revlon counter is.

439
00:15:55,747 --> 00:15:57,558
- Where is it?
- It's in the makeup department.

440
00:15:57,582 --> 00:16:00,126
The makeup department!
You should've told me.

441
00:16:00,168 --> 00:16:01,461
- You sure this is okay?
- What?

442
00:16:01,503 --> 00:16:03,004
You giving me a ride.

443
00:16:03,046 --> 00:16:04,523
Seems like a moral imperative
if we're talking

444
00:16:04,547 --> 00:16:05,674
about the makeup counter.

445
00:16:05,715 --> 00:16:07,133
- Is that all?
- Yes.

446
00:16:07,175 --> 00:16:09,362
BENJAMIN: You travel light.
You'd do well in a covered wagon

447
00:16:09,386 --> 00:16:11,930
or fleeing Egypt.

448
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:13,908
- Anyone need to go potty?
- MIDGE: I'm fine. Thanks.

449
00:16:13,932 --> 00:16:15,576
BENJAMIN: Lives are at stake.
I don't stop.

450
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:16,768
MIDGE:
I'm like a camel.

451
00:16:16,810 --> 00:16:18,812
Okay, here we go.

452
00:16:21,356 --> 00:16:23,196
So is there a sale
at the Revlon counter or...?

453
00:16:23,233 --> 00:16:24,609
MIDGE:
Oh, boy.

454
00:16:24,651 --> 00:16:27,404
Abe, I'm begging you,
I'm not a well man.

455
00:16:27,445 --> 00:16:29,948
In such a hurry to lose, Jerome?

456
00:16:29,989 --> 00:16:32,826
Cigar smoking is not allowed
in the rec room, you know that.

457
00:16:32,867 --> 00:16:34,244
JOEL:
Ruthie, focus.

458
00:16:34,285 --> 00:16:35,870
Look down there,
not at me, okay?

459
00:16:35,912 --> 00:16:38,790
- Just aim for the middle pin.
- Like this?

460
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:41,543
Not till the guy's done
resetting the pins. Jesus.

461
00:16:41,584 --> 00:16:43,420
- Sorry, Bill.
- BILL: That's okay.

462
00:16:43,461 --> 00:16:46,881
Here. Now when the guy's done,
aim for the pins.

463
00:16:46,923 --> 00:16:49,801
- Aren't you gonna watch me?
- Like a fucking hawk.

464
00:16:49,843 --> 00:16:51,028
- You having a good time?
- Sure.

465

466
00:16:52,387 --> 00:16:55,098
- He wasn't done yet, Ruthie.
- RUTHIE: He looked done.

467
00:16:55,140 --> 00:16:57,934
- Nice girl.
- Sure. Why not?

468
00:16:57,976 --> 00:16:59,769
A lot of nice girls here
this year.

469
00:16:59,811 --> 00:17:02,731
I'll take your word for it.
Avi, you're up.

470
00:17:02,772 --> 00:17:05,567
Nice looking, too.
Girls over there, for example.

471
00:17:05,608 --> 00:17:08,319
Here comes another 8-10 split
from the mighty Gardenswartz.

472
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,822
(pins clatter) -
They seem very interested in you.

473
00:17:10,864 --> 00:17:12,115
- Who does?
- The girls.

474
00:17:14,451 --> 00:17:15,869
They want to learn to bowl.

475
00:17:15,910 --> 00:17:17,996
They're flirting.
Why aren't you flirting back?

476
00:17:18,037 --> 00:17:19,330
I let them bowl a frame.

477
00:17:19,372 --> 00:17:21,040
Look, Valentino,
you're single now.

478
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:23,835
- You're up, Maisel.
- Just in the nick of time.

479
00:17:23,877 --> 00:17:25,879
Hey, smart ass, I'm an old man,
but I know things.

480
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,255
I rarely give you advice.

481
00:17:27,297 --> 00:17:29,150
You remember the last
piece of advice I gave you?

482
00:17:29,174 --> 00:17:31,342
- Don't get the clap.
- Came in handy, didn't it?

483
00:17:31,384 --> 00:17:33,845
I'm fine. Don't worry about me.

484
00:17:33,887 --> 00:17:37,098
MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, Mrs. Greenstein,

485
00:17:37,140 --> 00:17:39,893
Mr. Greenstein will wait
five more minutes,

486
00:17:39,934 --> 00:17:41,227
but that's it.

487
00:17:41,269 --> 00:17:45,106
No! My calculations must be off.

488
00:17:45,148 --> 00:17:47,650
I need a sharpener.

489
00:17:47,692 --> 00:17:49,652
Sharpener!

NEWS ANNOUNCER:
1959 saw the bird of war

00:17:51,571 --> 00:17:53,406
erupting in the Middle East.

492
00:17:53,448 --> 00:17:56,409
In Cairo, cheering crowds
greeted President al-Quwatli

493
00:17:56,451 --> 00:17:58,912
of Syria as he arrived

establishing
the United Arab League.

496
00:18:03,124 --> 00:18:05,418
The U.S. embassy in Moscow
was a target

497
00:18:05,460 --> 00:18:07,921
of the carefully planned
demonstration to protest

498
00:18:07,962 --> 00:18:10,715
the presence of American troops

Premier Bulganin, was retiring.

Kamoi loomed large in the news

that they were extending their
territorial water limit

504
00:18:24,062 --> 00:18:26,856
to 12 miles,
which took in Kamoi,

00:18:26,898 --> 00:18:29,484
a bastion in the defense

512
00:18:44,624 --> 00:18:47,252
There are renewed calls today
for real estate developer

513
00:18:47,293 --> 00:18:50,797
Robert Moses to step down
as Chairman of New York City's

514
00:18:50,839 --> 00:18:52,924
committee on slum clearance.

515
00:18:52,966 --> 00:18:55,385
The demands came
after Mr. Moses dismissed

516
00:18:55,426 --> 00:18:57,804
the city's billion dollar
Title One program

517
00:18:57,846 --> 00:19:00,098
as a dead duck.

(radio turns off)

520
00:19:06,855 --> 00:19:09,440
Moses's mother, the only person
in New York City

521
00:19:09,482 --> 00:19:11,818
who still likes him,
came to her son's defense,

522
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:14,153
insisting that his remark was
misconstrued

523
00:19:14,195 --> 00:19:15,864
and that the phrase "dead duck"

524
00:19:15,905 --> 00:19:18,032
has positive connotations
for him.

525
00:19:18,074 --> 00:19:19,742
She said that
little Robbie Moses

526
00:19:19,784 --> 00:19:22,036
carried his deceased duck
Quackers to school with him

527
00:19:22,078 --> 00:19:24,622
each day for company at playtime
and slept with it at night.

528
00:19:24,664 --> 00:19:26,666
The duck was alive
when it was given to him,

529
00:19:26,708 --> 00:19:27,876
Mrs. Moses clarified,

530
00:19:27,917 --> 00:19:29,460
but little Robert
snapped its neck

531
00:19:29,502 --> 00:19:32,797
when it waddled between him
and a dollar bill.

In other news,
Hawaii is now a state.

You work at
the fucking Morris agency.

- In accounting.
- Who cares?

You stand at the urinals with
those dicks and their dicks.

00:20:34,108 --> 00:20:35,711
You hear them talk.
Now give me something.

560
00:20:35,735 --> 00:20:37,070
I don't know why
I'm helping you.

561
00:20:37,111 --> 00:20:38,213
Because you hate that place.

562
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:39,572
I hate that fucking place.

563
00:20:39,614 --> 00:20:40,883
And helping me is screwing them.

564
00:20:40,907 --> 00:20:43,493
You know,
I actually used to sing.

565
00:20:43,534 --> 00:20:46,412
Folk songs, show tunes,
did a lot of industrials.

566
00:20:46,454 --> 00:20:47,830
I loved it.

567
00:20:47,872 --> 00:20:49,683
- Well, you must've been great.
- I wasn't bad.

568
00:20:49,707 --> 00:20:52,210
- I was being sarcastic.
- My cousin worked at the agency.

569
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:54,295
I covered for him while
he went on his honeymoon.

570
00:20:54,337 --> 00:20:56,839
His wife murdered him
in Panama, so...

00:20:56,881 --> 00:20:58,716
Fred, I promise,
if you never tell me anything

572
00:20:58,758 --> 00:21:01,010
about your personal life again
and a tip you give me

573
00:21:01,052 --> 00:21:03,072
actually leads to anything,
I will give you a taste.

574
00:21:03,096 --> 00:21:04,889
Now just give me something,
something good,

575
00:21:04,931 --> 00:21:08,518
something that...

576
00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:09,769
Uh...

587
00:21:29,288 --> 00:21:31,249

- Blame my mother.

00:21:46,848 --> 00:21:49,201
I'll buy you a drink back in the
Catskills, a thank you drink.

591
00:21:49,225 --> 00:21:51,269
Oh, no. I've done my Catskills
time for the year.

00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:53,646
I'm not buying another

00:21:53,688 --> 00:21:58,609
Oh. Okay. Well, then I guess,
until next year.

00:22:00,528 --> 00:22:01,696
Hey.

595
00:22:05,908 --> 00:22:08,411
I have tickets
to a Broadway show.

596
00:22:08,453 --> 00:22:09,662
- Oh, yeah?
- Tomorrow night.

597
00:22:09,704 --> 00:22:11,098
New play, a patient
gave them to me.

00:22:11,122 --> 00:22:12,457
So you work on
the barter system?

599
00:22:12,498 --> 00:22:13,600
People think
if they buy me things,

600
00:22:13,624 --> 00:22:14,768
I'll work harder
to keep them alive.

601
00:22:14,792 --> 00:22:17,420
- Are they right?
- Yes. So...

602
00:22:17,462 --> 00:22:20,214
- So...
- Would you like to go?

603
00:22:20,256 --> 00:22:23,634
Do you... like me?

604
00:22:23,676 --> 00:22:26,763
I don't know.

605
00:22:26,804 --> 00:22:29,307
If you go, can you possibly
stay quiet that long?

606
00:22:29,348 --> 00:22:31,017
I don't know.

607
00:22:31,059 --> 00:22:34,520
Fair enough. So, tomorrow, 7:00,
Adelphi Theatre?

LIZZIE:
My father had many enemies.

620
00:23:08,930 --> 00:23:10,765
He was rich.
They wanted his money.

621

SEWELL: Then you do not include
yourself among his enemies.

622

DR. STONE: I refuse to allow
this to go on. She is not well.

623

LIZZIE:
Mr. Phipps, please take me home.

624
00:23:17,730 --> 00:23:19,291
PHIPPS: You talk
of protecting this girl...

625
00:23:19,315 --> 00:23:20,942
I think she needs
protection from you.

Clerk, call the officer.

- PHIPPS: What is to be done?
- SEWELL: What else can I do?

628
00:23:24,904 --> 00:23:27,115
Place Miss Lizzie Borden
under arrest.

629
00:23:30,284 --> 00:23:32,537
- I really like the theatre.
- I do, too.

630
00:23:32,578 --> 00:23:35,414
Sitting in a dark room,
everyone enjoying a story.

631
00:23:35,456 --> 00:23:39,418
- There's electricity in the air.
- Agreed.

632
00:23:39,460 --> 00:23:42,338
And this play, I mean,
it's got everything:

633
00:23:42,380 --> 00:23:45,383
- curtains, lights.
- A floor.

634
00:23:45,424 --> 00:23:47,635
It does have a floor.

635
00:23:47,677 --> 00:23:49,137
- I'm just wondering...
- Yes?

636
00:23:49,178 --> 00:23:51,013
Why did they make a play
about Lizzie Borden?

637
00:23:51,055 --> 00:23:52,473
There's not a lot
of story there.

638
00:23:52,515 --> 00:23:53,683
40 whacks, 41 whacks...

639
00:23:53,724 --> 00:23:56,227
And why did they put the murder
in the first act?

640
00:23:56,269 --> 00:23:58,729
I mean, isn't that the whole
big thing that happens?

641
00:23:58,771 --> 00:23:59,730
Well, the clean up
was quite extensive.

642
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:02,316
- But what's the second act?
- Oh, no.

643
00:24:02,358 --> 00:24:04,152
- What?
- Act two's a trial.

644
00:24:04,193 --> 00:24:05,570
- Shit!
- I hate trials.

645
00:24:05,611 --> 00:24:07,196
All that ridiculous
Perry Mason crap.

646
00:24:07,238 --> 00:24:08,423
The "I object" and
"Your Honor, may I approach?"

647
00:24:08,447 --> 00:24:10,700
And the banging with the gavel.

648
00:24:10,741 --> 00:24:13,327
- And the righteous district attorney.
- I hate district attorneys.

649
00:24:13,369 --> 00:24:15,514
And somebody's gonna get up
and give a big dramatic speech.

650
00:24:15,538 --> 00:24:17,432
- Where the actor spits on you.
- They have to spit on you.

651
00:24:17,456 --> 00:24:19,434
- It's not dramatic unless they spit on you.
- I've been to real trials.

652
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,728
No one gives a dramatic speech,
but they still spit on you.

653
00:24:21,752 --> 00:24:23,337
(bell chimes)

654
00:24:23,379 --> 00:24:24,881
Wait, what are you doing?

655
00:24:24,922 --> 00:24:26,591
I'm finished with it anyhow.

656
00:24:26,632 --> 00:24:28,551
- We're not going back, are we?
- Aren't we?

657
00:24:28,593 --> 00:24:31,053
- No.
- We can't just leave.

658
00:24:31,095 --> 00:24:33,806
Didn't you hear all that stuff
we just said?

659
00:24:33,848 --> 00:24:36,058
Perry Mason, trials,
speeches, spitting?

660
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:37,310
Yes, but it's a play.

661
00:24:37,351 --> 00:24:38,978
You have to sit through
the whole play.

662
00:24:39,020 --> 00:24:41,230
- Who says?
- The play police.

663
00:24:41,272 --> 00:24:43,149
I am not sitting through
any more of this.

664
00:24:43,191 --> 00:24:45,443
But what if the actors notice
that our seats are empty?

665
00:24:45,484 --> 00:24:47,320
They've seen this play.
They'll understand.

666
00:24:47,361 --> 00:24:49,715
Hell, they expect it. They'll be
confused if we do come back.

667
00:24:49,739 --> 00:24:52,408
I've never walked out
halfway through a play before.

668
00:24:52,450 --> 00:24:54,035
I feel a little dirty,

669
00:24:54,076 --> 00:24:56,245
like-like, we could go back in
and we're not.

670
00:24:56,287 --> 00:24:59,707
I feel so grown up, so alive.

671
00:24:59,749 --> 00:25:01,626
Wait till you throw your program
in the trash.

672
00:25:01,667 --> 00:25:03,461
My God.

673
00:25:03,502 --> 00:25:06,422
My God, my God, my God.
We're leaving.

674
00:25:06,464 --> 00:25:09,842
- Well, don't be a jerk about it.
- Sorry.

675
00:25:09,884 --> 00:25:11,177
Oh, I know where we can go.

676
00:25:11,219 --> 00:25:12,553
ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and gentlemen,

677
00:25:12,595 --> 00:25:13,679
please welcome to the stage

678
00:25:13,721 --> 00:25:16,974
the one, the only Lenny Bruce!

679
00:25:17,016 --> 00:25:19,018
(cheers and applause)

680
00:25:24,398 --> 00:25:27,026
LENNY:
All right.

681
00:25:27,068 --> 00:25:30,571
Now, Sunday,

682
00:25:30,613 --> 00:25:34,700
Christ and Moses fly
to New York, transcontinental.

683
00:25:34,742 --> 00:25:38,454
$88 to Chicago, $35 to bet.
All right.

684
00:25:38,496 --> 00:25:40,248
Let's see, they'd say, uh,

685
00:25:40,289 --> 00:25:42,750
"Oh, what's playing
at Saint Pat's?"

686
00:25:42,792 --> 00:25:46,379
Oh, good double-bill,
Spellman and Sheen. Nice one.

687
00:25:46,420 --> 00:25:48,798
♪ Mr. Spellman and Mr. Sheen. ♪

688
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,259
- (vocalizing) All right.
- (laughter)

689
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:54,762
Now, Christ and Moses

690
00:25:54,804 --> 00:25:56,764
both possessed humility.

691
00:25:56,806 --> 00:25:59,684
Why? Wisdom. That's it.

692
00:25:59,725 --> 00:26:02,186
Anybody who is secure,
there's never any hostility

693
00:26:02,228 --> 00:26:03,813
'cause he's cool.

694
00:26:03,854 --> 00:26:07,066
So they just stand there,
in the back of St. Patrick's,

695
00:26:07,108 --> 00:26:10,278
and they'd listen, look around.

696
00:26:10,319 --> 00:26:13,739
Cardinal Spellman would be
relating love and giving

697
00:26:13,781 --> 00:26:15,574
and forgiveness to the people.

698
00:26:15,616 --> 00:26:20,371
- And Christ would be confused...
- (soft laughter)

699
00:26:20,413 --> 00:26:24,041
...because their route took them
through Spanish Harlem

700
00:26:24,083 --> 00:26:27,420
and he would wonder
what 40 Puerto Ricans were doing

701
00:26:27,461 --> 00:26:29,880
living in one room
and this guy had a ring on

702
00:26:29,922 --> 00:26:31,090
that was worth eight grand.

703
00:26:31,132 --> 00:26:33,092
(laughter)

704
00:26:33,134 --> 00:26:36,012
And he'd wonder at the grandeur.

705
00:26:36,053 --> 00:26:39,724
"So why aren't the Puerto Ricans
living here?

706
00:26:39,765 --> 00:26:42,893
It's clean and nice
and what does it all mean?"

707
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:46,480
And maybe Bishop Sheen would
see them in the back there,

708
00:26:46,522 --> 00:26:49,317
and he would run up to Spellman
on the lectern.

709
00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:51,569
"Psst, I want to talk to you
a minute."

710
00:26:51,610 --> 00:26:52,987
"What is it?"

711
00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:55,132
"What is it? Oh, you're never
gonna guess who's here."

712
00:26:55,156 --> 00:26:56,615
"Who's here?"

713
00:26:56,657 --> 00:26:58,468
"You're not gonna believe me,
you're gonna think

714
00:26:58,492 --> 00:26:59,660
I've been drinking."

715
00:26:59,702 --> 00:27:00,661
"All right, who's here?"

716
00:27:00,703 --> 00:27:01,912
(exhales)

717
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:03,998
"Christ and Moses."

718
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,208
"Are you putting me on, now?"

719
00:27:06,250 --> 00:27:07,436
"I'm telling you they're here."

720
00:27:07,460 --> 00:27:09,045
"Are you sure it's them?"

721
00:27:09,086 --> 00:27:10,522
"Well, I've only seen them
in pictures,

722
00:27:10,546 --> 00:27:12,089
"but I'm pretty sure it's them.

723
00:27:12,131 --> 00:27:14,800
"Moses is a ringer
for Charlton Heston, and, uh,

724
00:27:14,842 --> 00:27:15,968
I'm sure."

725
00:27:16,010 --> 00:27:17,029
"Where are they standing?"

726
00:27:17,053 --> 00:27:18,220
"In the back.

727
00:27:18,262 --> 00:27:20,139
Don't look now, you idiot.
They can see us."

728
00:27:20,181 --> 00:27:23,309
"All right, give me a direct
line to Rome, quickly.

729
00:27:23,351 --> 00:27:27,730

- So what?

747
00:28:13,192 --> 00:28:15,152
You just saw Lenny Bruce.
What did you think?

748
00:28:15,194 --> 00:28:16,862
Funny. And he didn't spit once.

749
00:28:16,904 --> 00:28:19,698
He's brilliant. He gets arrested
for the things he says.

750

Can you imagine?
Arresting a comedian.

Anyone who makes people

00:29:14,170 --> 00:29:16,547
- No, seriously.
- No, seriously. I am out on bail.

773
00:29:16,589 --> 00:29:18,007
How are you? You working?

774
00:29:18,048 --> 00:29:19,484
I've been doing some gigs
here and there.

775
00:29:19,508 --> 00:29:20,926
Right now I'm up
in the Catskills.

776
00:29:20,968 --> 00:29:22,344
Borscht Belt, huh?

777
00:29:22,386 --> 00:29:24,472
You know, what, uh,
resorts are you playing?

778
00:29:24,513 --> 00:29:26,891
Steiner, but I'm not working
there, I'm with my family.

779
00:29:26,932 --> 00:29:28,726
- Voluntarily?
- Yep. They go every year.

780
00:29:28,767 --> 00:29:30,728
Well, that sounds terrible.

781
00:29:30,769 --> 00:29:33,731
Yeah... I'm noticing
more than one glass here.

782
00:29:33,772 --> 00:29:36,859
- I'm with someone.
- A date?

783
00:29:36,901 --> 00:29:38,861
Possibly. Jury's still out.

784
00:29:38,903 --> 00:29:40,279
What, where is he, this date?

785
00:29:40,321 --> 00:29:42,281
He had to check in.
He's on call.

786
00:29:42,323 --> 00:29:43,923
You're kidding.
You went to the Catskills

787
00:29:43,949 --> 00:29:45,326
and you bagged yourself
a doctor?

788
00:29:45,367 --> 00:29:47,286
Your parents must be kvelling.

789
00:29:47,328 --> 00:29:49,622
I haven't bagged him. One date.

790
00:29:49,663 --> 00:29:52,041
Does he know?

791
00:29:52,082 --> 00:29:53,209
Know what?

792
00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:54,752
That you've been corrupted.

793
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:57,880
Lured to the dark side
of the microphone.

794
00:29:57,922 --> 00:29:59,423
One date.

795
00:29:59,465 --> 00:30:00,484
Do you really think
you can go back

796
00:30:00,508 --> 00:30:02,092
to making Jell-O molds again?

797
00:30:02,134 --> 00:30:03,904
Uh, I don't know.
I make a hell of a Jell-O mold.

798
00:30:03,928 --> 00:30:07,097
I bet you do. Oh, well,
I bet he's a very nice man

799
00:30:07,139 --> 00:30:09,725
and that he'll remember to bring
in the barrels like clockwork.

800
00:30:09,767 --> 00:30:12,770
- Everyone alive?
- Everyone who owes me money, yes.

801
00:30:12,811 --> 00:30:16,232
- Hello, Doctor.
- Benjamin Ettenberg, meet Lenny Bruce.

802
00:30:16,273 --> 00:30:17,650
Hello. I enjoyed your act.

803
00:30:17,691 --> 00:30:21,028
Ah. That was no act.

804
00:30:22,279 --> 00:30:25,824
All right. I have to be going.

805
00:30:25,866 --> 00:30:27,326
It was nice
to meet you, Benjamin.

806
00:30:27,368 --> 00:30:29,703
Uh, this table is on me.

807
00:30:29,745 --> 00:30:32,706
Buy her a soda.
And have her home by 10:00.

808
00:30:32,748 --> 00:30:35,709
(chuckles)

809
00:30:35,751 --> 00:30:37,711
(mouths)

810
00:30:37,753 --> 00:30:39,463
♪ Is something he can't see ♪

811
00:30:39,505 --> 00:30:41,632
♪ I wonder what's wrong... ♪

812
00:30:45,594 --> 00:30:47,948
- The good booth's free. Come on.
- Good booth? What's the good booth?

813
00:30:47,972 --> 00:30:49,491
- They all look the same.
- Move quick. Stay close.

814
00:30:49,515 --> 00:30:50,891
- Hey, Midge.
- Hey, Kitter.

815
00:30:50,933 --> 00:30:52,369
Wow, look at the size
of that sandwich.

816
00:30:52,393 --> 00:30:53,936
- Don't get distracted.
- Hello, Midge.

817
00:30:53,978 --> 00:30:56,146
- Hello, Zundee.
- Midge, the good booth is open.

818
00:30:56,188 --> 00:30:58,357
- I see it.
- I'll head off the couple from Jersey.

819
00:30:58,399 --> 00:31:01,819
- Good girl.
- That booth's taken, honey.

820
00:31:04,113 --> 00:31:05,906
(whoops)
Made it. Here.

821
00:31:05,948 --> 00:31:09,285
- Five bucks.
- Told you: never bet me. I never lose.

822
00:31:09,326 --> 00:31:11,870
Yeah, yeah.

823
00:31:11,912 --> 00:31:13,455
Danny Kaye is Jewish.

824
00:31:13,497 --> 00:31:16,625
Does your family own
this restaurant, or something?

825
00:31:16,667 --> 00:31:19,128
- No. Why?
- You just seem to know everyone here.

826
00:31:19,169 --> 00:31:22,423
What? No. Uh, some quick menu
tips: great sandwiches,

827
00:31:22,464 --> 00:31:25,050
good soups, stay away
from the Italian specialties,

828
00:31:25,092 --> 00:31:26,844
unless you like
mediocre Greek food.

829
00:31:26,885 --> 00:31:29,847
Got it.

830
00:31:29,888 --> 00:31:32,433
- So Lenny Bruce...
- We did not.

831
00:31:32,474 --> 00:31:34,101
Had to ask.
I think I'll get the brisket.

832
00:31:34,143 --> 00:31:35,728
SOLLY: Midge.
Mid-September, two spots.

833
00:31:35,769 --> 00:31:38,105
- I'll call Susie.
- Thanks, Solly.

834
00:31:38,147 --> 00:31:40,983
My hairdresser.

835
00:31:41,025 --> 00:31:46,030
So I'm thinking, if this night
continues to go in the direction

836
00:31:46,071 --> 00:31:48,449
it's currently headed,
we should have dinner next week.

837
00:31:48,490 --> 00:31:50,951
Cloth napkins, bathroom
attendants. What do you say?

838
00:31:50,993 --> 00:31:52,345
I'd even spring to go back
and see the second act

839
00:31:52,369 --> 00:31:53,829
of Lizzie Borden if you want.

840
00:31:53,871 --> 00:31:55,473
Maybe it wasn't a trial.
Maybe it was a musical,

841
00:31:55,497 --> 00:31:57,333
- or a puppet show.
- I'm a comedian.

842
00:31:57,374 --> 00:31:59,501
- You're a...
- I'm a standup. I do comedy.

843
00:31:59,543 --> 00:32:01,712
I go to clubs at night
and tell jokes.

844
00:32:01,754 --> 00:32:03,714
- Like Lenny Bruce.
- Like Lenny Bruce.

845
00:32:03,756 --> 00:32:05,799
Well, not as good
as Lenny Bruce... yet.

846
00:32:05,841 --> 00:32:08,069
- So you don't work at B. Altman?
- No, I work at B. Altman.

847
00:32:08,093 --> 00:32:10,095
I don't make any money
from comedy, yet.

848
00:32:10,137 --> 00:32:12,056
So B. Altman's my day job.
And it's a secret.

849
00:32:12,097 --> 00:32:14,141
- B. Altman's a secret?
- Comedy is a secret.

850
00:32:14,183 --> 00:32:15,851
- Okay.
- No one knows.

851
00:32:15,893 --> 00:32:17,936
Except Solly. He's a booker.

852
00:32:17,978 --> 00:32:19,730
And Verla. She knows.

853
00:32:19,772 --> 00:32:21,148
Benny, Jo-Jo, they know.

854
00:32:21,190 --> 00:32:22,667
Basically, that whole side
of the place.

855
00:32:22,691 --> 00:32:25,361
They know. And Joel, my ex.

856
00:32:25,402 --> 00:32:28,072
He knows. He actually saw me
perform one night.

857
00:32:28,113 --> 00:32:29,698
That's why we're not
together anymore.

858
00:32:29,740 --> 00:32:31,700
But no one else. Well, Susie.

859
00:32:31,742 --> 00:32:33,553
She's the one you see walking
around Steiner with the plunger.

860
00:32:33,577 --> 00:32:35,162
She's my manager.

861
00:32:35,204 --> 00:32:36,973
Your manager is walking around
Steiner with a plunger?

862
00:32:36,997 --> 00:32:38,391
I don't know a lot
about show business,

863
00:32:38,415 --> 00:32:39,934
but perhaps you need
a different manager.

864
00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:41,669
No. She's great. We're partners.

865
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:43,587
And... Lenny. He knows.

866
00:32:43,629 --> 00:32:45,339
So it's not a terribly
well-kept secret.

867
00:32:45,381 --> 00:32:48,175
I'm going to tell
my family soon, after vacation.

868
00:32:48,217 --> 00:32:49,802
But I haven't yet.

869
00:32:49,843 --> 00:32:51,529
So that thing you did
in the car, the radio thing?

870
00:32:51,553 --> 00:32:52,888
That was one of your bits?

871
00:32:52,930 --> 00:32:55,808
- No. I was just riffing.
- Huh.

872
00:32:55,849 --> 00:32:57,518
I just thought

873
00:32:57,559 --> 00:33:01,897
if we are going to do
whatever we're going to do,

874
00:33:01,939 --> 00:33:05,442
then you should know
I am a comic.

875
00:33:05,484 --> 00:33:08,278
A comic.

876
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,114
Mm-hmm.

877
00:33:10,155 --> 00:33:12,825
(radio playing faintly)

878
00:33:12,866 --> 00:33:14,868
Weird.

879
00:33:18,872 --> 00:33:20,374
So how's the meatloaf?

880
00:33:20,416 --> 00:33:21,917
- Do you like meatloaf?
- I do.

881
00:33:21,959 --> 00:33:23,961
Then keep on looking.

882
00:33:28,674 --> 00:33:30,676
(phone ringing)

883
00:33:35,472 --> 00:33:37,057
Hello?

884
00:33:37,099 --> 00:33:38,326
What the fuck
are you doing in New York

885
00:33:38,350 --> 00:33:39,518
and I'm in the Catskills?

886
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,287
- Oh. I had to come back.
- And you didn't tell me?

887
00:33:41,311 --> 00:33:43,248
- Wha... I'm sorry.
- I came up here because of you.

888
00:33:43,272 --> 00:33:44,791
- I know.
- I looked all over this nightmare place

889
00:33:44,815 --> 00:33:46,066
trying to find you.

890
00:33:46,108 --> 00:33:47,568
I went to bingo and bunny hop

891
00:33:47,609 --> 00:33:49,319
and color your face. Nowhere.

892
00:33:49,361 --> 00:33:50,961
- Susie...
- I went to the beauty parlor,

893
00:33:50,988 --> 00:33:52,507
and the indoor skating rink...
a skating rink,

894
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:53,991
in the middle of summer.

895
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:55,701
What group of total
and complete assholes

896
00:33:55,743 --> 00:33:57,786
needs a skating rink
in the middle of summer?

897
00:33:57,828 --> 00:33:58,930
How the fuck
did these people make it

898
00:33:58,954 --> 00:34:00,140
out of the desert to begin with?

899
00:34:00,164 --> 00:34:01,804
I went everywhere.
I was in such a frenzy,

900
00:34:01,832 --> 00:34:03,584
I lost my plunger.

901
00:34:03,625 --> 00:34:05,520
I just left it somewhere, and
then I had to go hunting for it,

902
00:34:05,544 --> 00:34:07,546
which meant I had to go back
to the skating rink

903
00:34:07,588 --> 00:34:09,381
and then back to bingo bullshit

904
00:34:09,423 --> 00:34:11,258
and then back to pogo pony
up your ass.

905
00:34:11,300 --> 00:34:13,069
I don't think these are all
Steiner-sanctioned activities.

906
00:34:13,093 --> 00:34:14,988
I've been paging you nonstop
to the point where they finally

907
00:34:15,012 --> 00:34:17,449
figured out something was up and
put a lock on the microphone.

908
00:34:17,473 --> 00:34:19,075
And then, as I was crouching
in the bushes outside

909
00:34:19,099 --> 00:34:21,310
your family's house,
I thought, "Wait a minute,

910
00:34:21,351 --> 00:34:24,271
what's a real shit move someone
like Miriam Maisel could pull?"

911
00:34:24,313 --> 00:34:25,898
She could up and desert me here

912
00:34:25,939 --> 00:34:27,083
and go back to the city
she never should've left

913
00:34:27,107 --> 00:34:28,650
- in the first place.
- I'm...

914
00:34:28,692 --> 00:34:30,336
So I called B. Asshole, where
you work, and tried to get

915
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,338
some info out of the brain trust
at the switchboard,

916
00:34:32,362 --> 00:34:34,090
but there was so much buzzing
in their heads.

917
00:34:34,114 --> 00:34:37,367
So then, as a Hail fucking Mary,
I call your house, and what ho!

918
00:34:37,409 --> 00:34:39,328
- I am sorry.
- What fucking ho?

919
00:34:39,369 --> 00:34:40,597
I got a chance to get back up
to the makeup floor.

920
00:34:40,621 --> 00:34:41,914
I had to get back right away.

921
00:34:41,955 --> 00:34:43,308
Are you done playing
with lipstick?

922
00:34:43,332 --> 00:34:44,625
'Cause I got you a gig.

923
00:34:44,666 --> 00:34:46,251
What? Where?

924
00:34:46,293 --> 00:34:48,337
The Concord. Late show. Tonight.

925
00:34:48,378 --> 00:34:50,255
Tonight? That's short notice.

926
00:34:50,297 --> 00:34:51,256
Well, it wouldn't
have been short

927
00:34:51,298 --> 00:34:52,484
if you'd been fucking up here.

928
00:34:52,508 --> 00:34:53,860
Well, I-I was gonna come back
here after work,

929
00:34:53,884 --> 00:34:55,111
but I guess maybe
I could take a bus to...

930
00:34:55,135 --> 00:34:57,346
I don't care
about your goddamn schedule,

931
00:34:57,387 --> 00:34:58,680
just get your ass back here.

932
00:34:58,722 --> 00:35:00,265
- Okay. I'll be there.
- Be there.

933
00:35:00,307 --> 00:35:02,243
- I just said I'll be there.
- Because if you're not there,

934
00:35:02,267 --> 00:35:04,061
in my travels today,
I found a lot of places

935
00:35:04,102 --> 00:35:06,522
I could hide your body with
minimal digging. Understand?

936
00:35:06,563 --> 00:35:09,191
- It's exciting, about the gig.
- Fuck you.

937
00:35:09,233 --> 00:35:11,819

MIDGE: It's very nice of you
to do this, Noah.

946
00:35:33,215 --> 00:35:35,217
- I owe you.
- Yes, I'll put in on your tab.

947
00:35:35,259 --> 00:35:38,011
I just couldn't believe it, when
the phone rang and it was you.

948
00:35:38,053 --> 00:35:40,073
I mean, normally, when the phone
rings, it's a salesman

949
00:35:40,097 --> 00:35:42,641
trying to sell me a vegetable
brush or my doctor saying, like,

950
00:35:42,683 --> 00:35:46,061
"Nope, try again," but today,
it was you wanting a ride!

951
00:35:46,103 --> 00:35:47,396
Such a brucha.

952
00:35:47,437 --> 00:35:49,231
You are saving my life.

953
00:35:49,273 --> 00:35:51,316
That's quite a getup
you're wearing for a car ride.

954
00:35:51,358 --> 00:35:53,318
Going somewhere special tonight?

955
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:54,695
Me? Nope.

956
00:35:54,736 --> 00:35:56,572
You do look very fancy.

957
00:35:56,613 --> 00:35:58,824
Is there a shayna punim
in the picture?

958
00:35:58,866 --> 00:36:00,033
Oh, no. Nothing like that...

959
00:36:00,075 --> 00:36:01,201
- Oh.
- ...I don't think.

960
00:36:01,243 --> 00:36:02,953
Hey, Dad called me last night.

961
00:36:02,995 --> 00:36:05,139
He said he wants to talk to me
about something important.

962
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:08,333
- Any idea what that may be?
- You think he'd tell me?

963
00:36:08,375 --> 00:36:10,311
I'm sorry, are we just gonna
ignore the smell in the car?

964
00:36:10,335 --> 00:36:12,129
- Yes, we are.
- Noah.

965
00:36:12,170 --> 00:36:15,090
Well, you smell it, right?
It's a very strong smell.

966
00:36:15,132 --> 00:36:18,635
It's like a skunk or mold
or rotting fruit or...

967
00:36:18,677 --> 00:36:21,430
- Me. It's me.
- No, Astrid, it's not...

968
00:36:21,471 --> 00:36:24,808
- Oh, my God, it is you.
- Here you go.

969
00:36:24,850 --> 00:36:26,870
ASTRID: So I went to Chinatown
and I bought this herbal paste

970
00:36:26,894 --> 00:36:28,896
that you're supposed
to put on during certain times

971
00:36:28,937 --> 00:36:30,832
when certain things are
happening or supposed to be

972
00:36:30,856 --> 00:36:33,358
happening or are probably
happening to most people anyway,

973
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,211
but theoretically,
when things could be happening,

974
00:36:35,235 --> 00:36:38,405
just to someone else
but never to me, you put it on.

975
00:36:38,447 --> 00:36:40,282
Ugh, it's so strong.

976
00:36:40,324 --> 00:36:43,410
It's like a mixture of ammonia
and Esther's diaper.

977
00:36:43,452 --> 00:36:45,388
So you put the paste on, which
I did, and then a month later,

978
00:36:45,412 --> 00:36:47,289
you're supposed to get pregnant.

979
00:36:47,331 --> 00:36:49,017
They didn't tell me about
the smell. (laughs)

980
00:36:49,041 --> 00:36:51,168
I don't think... they might have.
They're Chinese.

981
00:36:51,209 --> 00:36:54,087
But it has a smell, and it tends
to harden as it dries,

982
00:36:54,129 --> 00:36:56,006
which is why
I'm walking so funny.

983
00:36:56,048 --> 00:36:59,009
You know, let's just go back
to ignoring it, shall we?

984
00:36:59,051 --> 00:37:00,445
That's what I've been
doing for a month.

985
00:37:00,469 --> 00:37:02,721
Oh, hey, Noah, you can
drop me off at the Concord.

986
00:37:02,763 --> 00:37:04,431
- Why?
- Oh, is it because of me?

987
00:37:04,473 --> 00:37:05,742
No, you shouldn't have to walk.
I'll walk.

988
00:37:05,766 --> 00:37:07,184
Hey, drop me off at the Concord.

989
00:37:07,225 --> 00:37:08,560
No, it's because of you, Astrid.

990
00:37:08,602 --> 00:37:10,395
I just want to go
to the Concord.

991
00:37:10,437 --> 00:37:11,813
I'm meeting friends there.

992
00:37:11,855 --> 00:37:14,191
- What friends?
- Concord friends.

993
00:37:14,232 --> 00:37:16,318
Now I understand the dress.

994
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,111
- Stop it.
- Wait, what do you mean?

995
00:37:18,153 --> 00:37:19,196
Midge has a man.

996
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:21,198
ASTRID:
Oh, a man! (laughs)

997
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,700
A little shayna punim
at the Concord.

998
00:37:23,742 --> 00:37:25,327
Oh, I'm so happy
I could hug you.

999
00:37:25,369 --> 00:37:28,872
- Astrid.
- I won't. I promise.

1000
00:37:28,914 --> 00:37:32,501
Shayna punim.

1001
00:37:32,542 --> 00:37:35,504
♪ To tell you
what you mean to me... ♪

1002
00:37:35,545 --> 00:37:37,506
SUSIE:
Ugh, thank God you made it.

1003
00:37:37,547 --> 00:37:39,925
I made it. It's a miracle,
but I made it.

1004
00:37:39,967 --> 00:37:41,551
Boy, this is classy.

1005
00:37:41,593 --> 00:37:43,738
Yeah, you think I'd drag you
back here to work a sewer?

1006
00:37:43,762 --> 00:37:45,681
- I do.
- I would, but I didn't have to.

1007
00:37:45,722 --> 00:37:47,116
Hey, what's with this?
We're not at Steiner.

1008
00:37:47,140 --> 00:37:48,934
Why are you still
carrying that around?

1009
00:37:48,976 --> 00:37:50,828
After what happened before,
I'm not leaving her alone again.

1010
00:37:50,852 --> 00:37:53,730
- Her?
- Just focus on your set, please.

1011
00:37:53,772 --> 00:37:57,317
Okay, I'm sorry. Wow, big room.

1012
00:37:57,359 --> 00:37:58,795
Did you tell me how big
this room is?

1013
00:37:58,819 --> 00:38:02,114
It's really big.
Huge, it's like...

1014
00:38:02,155 --> 00:38:03,699
What are you doing?
Are you counting?

1015
00:38:03,740 --> 00:38:05,551
I just want to know how much
bigger this room is

1016
00:38:05,575 --> 00:38:07,679
than any other room I've ever
played in my entire life.

1017
00:38:07,703 --> 00:38:09,246
Who gives a shit
if it's a bigger room?

1018
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:11,248
It's still just a room.
It's the same audience.

1019
00:38:11,289 --> 00:38:14,376
There will be dumb people
and drunk people and loud people

1020
00:38:14,418 --> 00:38:15,853
and people throwing up
in the corner.

1021
00:38:15,877 --> 00:38:17,212
Just... more than
you're used to.

1022
00:38:17,254 --> 00:38:19,006
Who the hell is this?

1023
00:38:19,047 --> 00:38:22,134
Ah. Great. Melvin, I'd like
you to meet Midge Maisel.

1024
00:38:22,175 --> 00:38:23,343
Mrs. Maisel.

1025
00:38:23,385 --> 00:38:24,928
This isn't the girl I hired.

1026
00:38:24,970 --> 00:38:27,472
- It isn't?
- Yes, it is. - No. No, no, no.

1027
00:38:27,514 --> 00:38:28,908
(stammers)
She doesn't look anything

1028
00:38:28,932 --> 00:38:30,308
like the picture you showed me.

1029
00:38:30,350 --> 00:38:31,935
The picture you showed me
looked funny.

1030
00:38:31,977 --> 00:38:33,437
She doesn't look funny.

1031
00:38:33,478 --> 00:38:35,063
W-What is she, a-a singer?

1032
00:38:35,105 --> 00:38:36,857
No. She's not a singer,
she's a comic.

1033
00:38:36,898 --> 00:38:38,650
No.

1034
00:38:38,692 --> 00:38:40,902
Look, she just doesn't
have her makeup on yet. Okay?

1035
00:38:40,944 --> 00:38:42,529
By the way,
it's a little creepy,

1036
00:38:42,571 --> 00:38:44,590
you carrying her picture around
in your pants like that.

1037
00:38:44,614 --> 00:38:46,592
Makeup? How much makeup?
How much makeup does she wear?

1038
00:38:46,616 --> 00:38:48,118
Who are you, Max Factor?

1039
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:49,619
- I need a comic.
- And you got one.

1040
00:38:49,661 --> 00:38:51,830
- A funny comic.
- Will you relax?

1041
00:38:51,872 --> 00:38:53,599
You worry like that, you'll take
ten years off your life.

1042
00:38:53,623 --> 00:38:55,000
And from the looks of you,

1043
00:38:55,042 --> 00:38:58,336
you only have about
five left to begin with.

1044
00:38:58,378 --> 00:39:00,338
Dressing room's in the back.

1045
00:39:00,380 --> 00:39:03,300
Get your makeup on.
She better look funny!

1046
00:39:03,341 --> 00:39:05,302
Susie, what is he talking about?

1047
00:39:05,343 --> 00:39:07,971
- Nothing.
- What picture did you...

1048
00:39:08,013 --> 00:39:10,974
- That's Mamie Eisenhower.
- Yeah, so?

1049
00:39:11,016 --> 00:39:13,310
You told him
I look like Mamie Eisenhower?

1050
00:39:13,351 --> 00:39:14,746
Look, I said what I need
to get you the gig,

1051
00:39:14,770 --> 00:39:15,812
and I got you the gig.

1052
00:39:15,854 --> 00:39:17,147
We're just lucky that moron

1053
00:39:17,189 --> 00:39:18,732
doesn't read
a fucking newspaper.

1054
00:39:18,774 --> 00:39:20,574
Susie, he thinks
I'm gonna go out on the stage

1055
00:39:20,609 --> 00:39:22,503
looking like the president's
wife, and when I don't,

1056
00:39:22,527 --> 00:39:25,572
he's gonna pull me off the stage
in front of 400,000 people.

1057
00:39:25,614 --> 00:39:27,157
Relax about the goddamn room.

1058
00:39:27,199 --> 00:39:29,159
It's not 400,000 people, okay?

1059
00:39:29,201 --> 00:39:31,995
It's not even... Oh, I didn't see
those seats back there.

1060
00:39:32,037 --> 00:39:33,330
Okay, it's big.

1061
00:39:33,371 --> 00:39:35,165
But you're gonna do great.

1062
00:39:35,207 --> 00:39:37,501
- Now, let's go find you a drink.
- I don't need a drink.

1063
00:39:37,542 --> 00:39:39,836
Eh, place this big,
you're gonna need a drink.

1064
00:39:39,878 --> 00:39:43,799
Oh, Jesus Christ,
look at the size of that bar.

1065
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,384
(birds calling)

1066
00:39:46,426 --> 00:39:47,385
(singsongy):
Make sure you have everything.

1067
00:39:47,427 --> 00:39:48,887
I have everything.

1068
00:39:48,929 --> 00:39:51,056
- Where's your hat?
- I forgot my hat.

1069
00:39:51,098 --> 00:39:53,809
I hope they have that
fire juggler again this year.

1070
00:39:53,850 --> 00:39:55,727
You wonder what happens
in a person's life

1071
00:39:55,769 --> 00:39:58,230
that makes them stumble
across a talent like that.

1072
00:39:58,271 --> 00:39:59,815
It's on the chair.

1073
00:39:59,856 --> 00:40:01,417
I think, next year,
it's going to be time

1074
00:40:01,441 --> 00:40:03,360
for a new grass skirt.

1075
00:40:03,401 --> 00:40:04,921
- You ready?
- MOISHE: Remember, Mendelsons,

1076
00:40:04,945 --> 00:40:07,489
tonight, everyone gets lei'd!

1077
00:40:07,531 --> 00:40:09,324
(man chuckles)

1078
00:40:09,366 --> 00:40:11,326
- Rose, I can't do it.
- Every year, you say that.

1079
00:40:11,368 --> 00:40:13,429
Then you put it on, and
you never want to take it off.

1080
00:40:13,453 --> 00:40:17,165
I can't spend Polynesian Night
at the same table with that man.

1081
00:40:17,207 --> 00:40:19,584
- Oh, Abe.
- You know how many times

1082
00:40:19,626 --> 00:40:22,003
he's going to say the words
"pupu platter."

1083
00:40:22,045 --> 00:40:25,340
I can't listen
to his litany of "lei'd" jokes.

1084
00:40:25,382 --> 00:40:28,593
I-I can't watch him
tip the waiters in coconuts.

1085
00:40:28,635 --> 00:40:31,346
I can't take him substituting
the word "poi" for "goy"

1086
00:40:31,388 --> 00:40:34,099
- in casual conversation.
- All right, I'll tell you what.

1087
00:40:34,141 --> 00:40:36,852
I'll represent us at dinner,
and you stay here and relax.

1088
00:40:36,893 --> 00:40:38,854
- Really?
- You've earned a break.

1089
00:40:38,895 --> 00:40:40,689
I'll bring you back
a pineapple boat.

1090
00:40:40,730 --> 00:40:42,524
And, remember,
Moishe and Shirley

1091
00:40:42,566 --> 00:40:44,860
are seeing Duke Ellington
at Grossinger's Tuesday,

1092
00:40:44,901 --> 00:40:46,695
so they won't be here
for Schnitzel Night.

1093
00:40:46,736 --> 00:40:48,864
- They won't ruin the schnitzel?
- They will not ruin

1094
00:40:48,905 --> 00:40:51,283
- the schnitzel.
- You're a very good wife.

1095
00:40:51,324 --> 00:40:53,702

Oh, God, it's hot.

1100
00:41:04,921 --> 00:41:06,798
Take your coat off, Ma.

1101
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,884
Then I'll be too cold.

1102
00:41:08,925 --> 00:41:11,219
You look very nice tonight.

1103
00:41:11,261 --> 00:41:13,305
I could always pull off
a floral print.

1104

(chuckles)

1105
00:41:15,015 --> 00:41:16,808
Ooh.

1106
00:41:16,850 --> 00:41:20,061
Sure are a lot of pretty girls
here this year.

1107
00:41:20,103 --> 00:41:21,229
You've been talking to Pop.

1108
00:41:21,271 --> 00:41:22,480
I warned you about that.

1109
00:41:22,522 --> 00:41:24,232
(chuckles):
Oh, yeah.

1110
00:41:24,274 --> 00:41:27,986
Shouldn't you be out there
talking to a nice girl

1111
00:41:28,028 --> 00:41:29,988
instead of sitting here
talking to me?

1112
00:41:30,030 --> 00:41:31,406
You're a nice girl.

1113
00:41:31,448 --> 00:41:32,991
Or is there something
I don't know?

1114
00:41:33,033 --> 00:41:35,827
- I'm being serious.
- Ma.

1115
00:41:35,869 --> 00:41:37,329
You're my son.

1116
00:41:37,370 --> 00:41:39,831
- I want you to be happy.
- I know.

1117
00:41:39,873 --> 00:41:42,500
And just because you're not
with Midge anymore

1118
00:41:42,542 --> 00:41:44,961
doesn't mean you can't be happy.

1119
00:41:47,964 --> 00:41:51,760
I just don't want you waiting
around for her, Joel.

1120
00:41:51,801 --> 00:41:56,431
Because I don't think
she's waiting around for you.

1121
00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:04,481
You look nice in your coat, Ma.

1122
00:42:04,522 --> 00:42:05,899
But do I look rich?

1123
00:42:05,941 --> 00:42:07,567
- Like a Rockefeller.
- (chuckles)

1124
00:42:07,609 --> 00:42:09,236
MOISHE:
Look who I found wandering

1125
00:42:09,277 --> 00:42:10,820
around the island alone.

1126
00:42:10,862 --> 00:42:13,657
- SHIRLEY: Oh, hello, Rose.
- Hello, Shirley.

1127
00:42:13,698 --> 00:42:16,076
Shirley, you notice something
different about Rose tonight?

1128
00:42:16,117 --> 00:42:18,745
A certain glow? I think
she may have gotten lei'd.

1129
00:42:18,787 --> 00:42:20,747
- (laughs) Oh, Moishe.
- (chuckles) Mm.

1130
00:42:20,789 --> 00:42:22,415
You are something else.

1131
00:42:22,457 --> 00:42:24,334
May I escort you ladies
to the table?

1132
00:42:24,376 --> 00:42:26,670
I hear the chef made
a whole lot of pupu.

1133
00:42:26,711 --> 00:42:28,421
- (laughs)
- So, Shirley tells me

1134
00:42:28,463 --> 00:42:30,173
you're gonna be buried
in Israel.

1135
00:42:30,215 --> 00:42:31,841
Any idea when?

1136
00:42:31,883 --> 00:42:33,176

Dinner's the other way, Abe.

1144
00:42:53,780 --> 00:42:56,241
Oh. Joel, hello.

1145
00:42:56,283 --> 00:42:59,494
Yes, I'm actually going
to skip dinner tonight.

1146
00:42:59,536 --> 00:43:00,996
I had a very big lunch

1147
00:43:01,037 --> 00:43:03,415
and double my allotment
of tomato juice,

1148
00:43:03,456 --> 00:43:05,917
so I thought I'd just...

1149
00:43:05,959 --> 00:43:08,545
walk it off for two
or three more hours.

1150
00:43:08,586 --> 00:43:10,088
Needed a break
from my parents, huh?

1151
00:43:10,130 --> 00:43:11,089
- Yes.
- I understand.

1152
00:43:11,131 --> 00:43:12,590
I'm sure you do.

1153
00:43:12,632 --> 00:43:14,801
- Well...
- Hey,

1154
00:43:14,843 --> 00:43:16,261
is Midge back yet?

1155
00:43:16,303 --> 00:43:18,680
Uh, no, she's still in New York.

1156
00:43:18,722 --> 00:43:19,889
Anything wrong?

1157
00:43:19,931 --> 00:43:21,683
Nope. Just wondering.

1158
00:43:21,725 --> 00:43:23,476
I'll tell her
you're looking for her.

1159
00:43:23,518 --> 00:43:25,562
- Yep. Good.
- Oh, and, um,

1160
00:43:25,603 --> 00:43:28,315
- if your parents ask...
- I never saw you.

1161
00:43:37,657 --> 00:43:39,135
Now, this is a much bigger room
than you're used to,

1162
00:43:39,159 --> 00:43:40,553
so it's gonna feel
completely different.

1163
00:43:40,577 --> 00:43:42,537
- Wait, what?
- And it'll take longer

1164
00:43:42,579 --> 00:43:44,289
for the laughs to reach you,
and they'll be

1165
00:43:44,331 --> 00:43:46,309
proportionally quieter
because of the tall ceilings.

1166
00:43:46,333 --> 00:43:48,060
I thought you said this place
wasn't that much bigger.

1167
00:43:48,084 --> 00:43:50,003
I also said you looked
like Mamie Eisenhower.

1168
00:43:50,045 --> 00:43:53,256
- This place is huge. Keep up.
- That's her with her makeup on?

1169
00:43:53,298 --> 00:43:55,925
- Yeah.
- She looks even less funny now!

1170
00:43:55,967 --> 00:43:57,111
You know what,
she's just gonna be funny

1171
00:43:57,135 --> 00:43:58,345
instead of look funny, okay?

1172
00:43:58,386 --> 00:44:01,097
She's not funny, I'm not paying.

1173
00:44:01,139 --> 00:44:02,849
- So no pressure.
- Nope.

1174
00:44:02,891 --> 00:44:04,535
- Okay, where were we?
- Laughs will take forever

1175
00:44:04,559 --> 00:44:06,019
- to reach me.
- Yes, they will.

1176
00:44:06,061 --> 00:44:07,705
So it might be tough
to gauge how it's going.

1177
00:44:07,729 --> 00:44:09,272
Hold a little longer
for the laughs

1178
00:44:09,314 --> 00:44:10,958
and look down at who you can see
in the audience.

1179
00:44:10,982 --> 00:44:12,776
If they're smilin',
you're doing good.

1180
00:44:12,817 --> 00:44:15,195
I wonder what Mamie Eisenhower
would do in this situation.

1181
00:44:15,236 --> 00:44:17,822
Big room is just more people
to fall in love with you.

1182
00:44:17,864 --> 00:44:19,908
ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and gentlemen,

1183
00:44:19,949 --> 00:44:22,744
the Concord Hotel
is pleased to welcome

1184
00:44:22,786 --> 00:44:25,413
- to the stage Mrs. Maisel!
- Okay. Here we go.

1185
00:44:25,455 --> 00:44:27,582
- Tits up.
- Tits up.

1186
00:44:27,624 --> 00:44:29,584
(applause)

1187
00:44:29,626 --> 00:44:31,669
(cheering)

1188
00:44:31,711 --> 00:44:33,671
Thank you, everybody.

1189
00:44:33,713 --> 00:44:36,299
Thank you very much.

1190
00:44:36,341 --> 00:44:38,718
Here we are in the Catskills,
and I'm starving.

1191
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,137
Where can you get a decent meal
around here?

1192
00:44:41,179 --> 00:44:42,847
- (laughter)
- Food.

1193
00:44:42,889 --> 00:44:46,476
Food.
24 hours a day, food.

1194
00:44:46,518 --> 00:44:48,120
Shouldn't the Catskills season
be in winter,

1195
00:44:48,144 --> 00:44:50,522
with big coats and scarves?

1196
00:44:50,563 --> 00:44:52,690
What kind of sadists
feed you ten meals a day,

1197
00:44:52,732 --> 00:44:54,126
then tell you to put on
a fucking bikini

1198
00:44:54,150 --> 00:44:55,193
and go find a husband?

1199
00:44:55,235 --> 00:44:57,153
The only reason

1200
00:44:57,195 --> 00:44:59,864
we stand a chance is because
the men are too full to run.

1201
00:44:59,906 --> 00:45:02,867
And all I see

1202
00:45:02,909 --> 00:45:06,329
and hear about
and dream about is food.

1203
00:45:06,371 --> 00:45:07,872
Giant portions of food.

1204
00:45:07,914 --> 00:45:09,707
I know it's the midnight show.

1205
00:45:09,749 --> 00:45:12,043
I'm supposed to be talking
about blow jobs and big tits,

1206
00:45:12,085 --> 00:45:14,587
but, after six weeks up here,

1207
00:45:14,629 --> 00:45:15,773
tits just start
to look like a couple

1208
00:45:15,797 --> 00:45:17,715
of Grossinger's baked Alaskas.

1209
00:45:17,757 --> 00:45:19,968
They're, uh...

1210
00:45:20,009 --> 00:45:22,262
Oh, you've had them.

1211
00:45:22,303 --> 00:45:25,890
But, really, I-I have great
affection for the mountains.

1212
00:45:25,932 --> 00:45:28,160
I've been coming up here
with my family since I was born.

1213
00:45:28,184 --> 00:45:31,479
It is the best place to have
your first nervous breakdown.

1214
00:45:31,521 --> 00:45:33,731
Which automatically comes
with spending months

1215
00:45:33,773 --> 00:45:36,234
in a cabin with your family
every year since you were born.

1216
00:45:36,276 --> 00:45:39,320
My first everything happened
in the Catskills.

1217
00:45:39,362 --> 00:45:41,489
Everything.

1218
00:45:41,531 --> 00:45:43,658
My mother first told me
to keep my knees closed

1219
00:45:43,700 --> 00:45:45,678
until there's a ring
on my finger in the Catskills.

1220
00:45:45,702 --> 00:45:48,496
Actually, she told me
it was biologically impossible

1221
00:45:48,538 --> 00:45:50,498
to have sex
without a ring on your finger.

1222
00:45:50,540 --> 00:45:52,375
Guess what, Mom,

1223
00:45:52,417 --> 00:45:53,793
it's not.

1224
00:45:53,835 --> 00:45:56,212
Anyhow, the first boy
I ever kissed

1225
00:45:56,254 --> 00:45:58,381
I kissed in the Catskills.

1226
00:45:58,423 --> 00:46:01,718
Mm-hmm. First time I ever let
a boy go Christopher Columbus

1227
00:46:01,759 --> 00:46:04,679
on my nether regions,
it was in the Catskills.

1228
00:46:04,721 --> 00:46:07,682
And this boy, he was my...

1229
00:46:07,724 --> 00:46:09,309
Papa.

1230
00:46:09,350 --> 00:46:11,728
(audience chuckling)

1231
00:46:11,769 --> 00:46:13,771
(quietly):
I...

1232
00:46:13,813 --> 00:46:15,940
I...

1233
00:46:16,983 --> 00:46:18,693
The Catskills.

1234
00:46:18,735 --> 00:46:20,445
Things happen in the Catskills.

1235
00:46:20,487 --> 00:46:22,530
All kinds of things happen.

1236
00:46:22,572 --> 00:46:24,467
Games. There's games.
You like games? I like games.

1237
00:46:24,491 --> 00:46:26,701
And-and when people
come up here with kids,

1238
00:46:26,743 --> 00:46:28,369
they want things
for the kids to play

1239
00:46:28,411 --> 00:46:31,206
so the adults can go...
be adults.

1240
00:46:31,247 --> 00:46:32,641
Parents don't really want
to know what's going on

1241
00:46:32,665 --> 00:46:34,292
with their kids
behind their backs.

1242
00:46:34,334 --> 00:46:36,228
I mean, they'd prefer
they weren't eaten by a lion

1243
00:46:36,252 --> 00:46:38,463
or whatever eats people
in Upstate New York,

1244
00:46:38,505 --> 00:46:40,673
but, otherwise, secrets.

1245
00:46:40,715 --> 00:46:43,384
Secrets. Kids have secrets.

1246
00:46:43,426 --> 00:46:46,804
Mothers and daughters
and daughters and fathers and...

1247
00:46:46,846 --> 00:46:49,474
You know, it's weird with
daughters and fathers, isn't it?

1248
00:46:49,516 --> 00:46:50,892
Isn't it weird?

1249
00:46:50,934 --> 00:46:52,936
I-Is it weird?

1250
00:46:52,977 --> 00:46:55,813
Is it?
Fucking make up your mind.

1251
00:46:55,855 --> 00:46:58,083
Because fathers never really
know who their daughters are.

1252
00:46:58,107 --> 00:46:59,901
They don't want to know,
do they?

1253
00:46:59,943 --> 00:47:02,254
It would be terrifying to know
who they are and what they do,

1254
00:47:02,278 --> 00:47:03,756
and-and, because they
don't really know any of this,

1255
00:47:03,780 --> 00:47:05,424
sometimes they can just walk in
unexpectedly,

1256
00:47:05,448 --> 00:47:06,533
and, suddenly, it's like,

1257
00:47:06,574 --> 00:47:07,951
"Hey, you're a whore. Who knew?"

1258
00:47:07,992 --> 00:47:09,702
Not that I'm a whore.

1259
00:47:09,744 --> 00:47:11,621
I am definitely not a whore.

1260
00:47:11,663 --> 00:47:13,623
I do not charge for sex.
I mean, that's free.

1261
00:47:13,665 --> 00:47:17,585
I mean, it's free to guys
I want it to be free to.

1262
00:47:17,627 --> 00:47:19,504
My husband. Boyfriend.

1263
00:47:19,546 --> 00:47:21,256
One girl in college.

1264
00:47:21,297 --> 00:47:24,300
Anyone with a decent ticket
to a Sinatra concert.

1265
00:47:24,342 --> 00:47:26,636
Even my mother would give it up
for a Sinatra ticket.

1266
00:47:26,678 --> 00:47:28,596
No, she wouldn't.
My mother wouldn't give it up

1267
00:47:28,638 --> 00:47:30,056
for anything, to anyone.

1268
00:47:30,098 --> 00:47:31,909
Well, my father.
She'll-she'll give it up to him.

1269
00:47:31,933 --> 00:47:34,227
I mean, not that she told me
she'd give it up to him.

1270
00:47:34,269 --> 00:47:36,479
But I'm assuming.
Well, I'm here,

1271
00:47:36,521 --> 00:47:39,232
so somebody gave up something
to somebody at some point.

1272
00:47:39,274 --> 00:47:41,067
Anyhow, e-everyone has sex.

1273
00:47:41,109 --> 00:47:42,819
Daughters have sex.

1274
00:47:42,860 --> 00:47:44,237
Sons have sex.

1275
00:47:44,279 --> 00:47:46,781
Babies come from sex.

1276
00:47:46,823 --> 00:47:48,783
Boy, I have got to stop saying
the word "sex."

1277
00:47:48,825 --> 00:47:51,286
I actually have never said "sex"
this much before.

1278
00:47:51,327 --> 00:47:53,347
I don't think I've ever said
the word "sex" in front

1279
00:47:53,371 --> 00:47:55,683
of my father, because my father
looks like what you'd think

1280
00:47:55,707 --> 00:47:57,250
a Columbia professor
would look like.

1281
00:47:57,292 --> 00:47:59,669
Lots of brown and tweed
and plaid

1282
00:47:59,711 --> 00:48:02,005
and a scowl
of intellectual superiority

1283
00:48:02,046 --> 00:48:04,257
because he is
intellectually superior.

1284
00:48:04,299 --> 00:48:05,883
He is very smart.

1285
00:48:05,925 --> 00:48:08,219
My mother once told me
that she pictured having sex

1286
00:48:08,261 --> 00:48:09,721
with his mind
on their wedding night

1287
00:48:09,762 --> 00:48:11,681
so she didn't have to think
about his penis.

1288
00:48:11,723 --> 00:48:13,683
She did not say that.
Some other woman said that.

1289
00:48:13,725 --> 00:48:15,518
Just some other person.
And I overheard them

1290
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,187
and... Let's go back to food,
shall we?

1291
00:48:18,229 --> 00:48:19,689
Food...

1292
00:48:19,731 --> 00:48:21,691
And the donkey
who looked just like my father

1293
00:48:21,733 --> 00:48:24,694
stood up and said, "Who else
wants a piece of this?!"

1294
00:48:24,736 --> 00:48:28,364
- (laughter)
- I really, really have to go.

1295
00:48:28,406 --> 00:48:30,116
But, uh, thank you for laughing.

1296
00:48:30,158 --> 00:48:32,785
Please tip a waiter
and enjoy some veal.

1297
00:48:32,827 --> 00:48:34,547
I will be here all week
trying to figure out

1298
00:48:34,579 --> 00:48:36,307
if I just had some sort
of stroke. I'm Mrs. Maisel.

1299
00:48:36,331 --> 00:48:37,457
Thank you! Good night!

1300
00:48:37,498 --> 00:48:39,417
(cheering and applause)

1301
00:48:40,543 --> 00:48:42,337
Ha! That's the way to do it.

1302
00:48:42,378 --> 00:48:44,088
You had them. You own them.

1303
00:48:44,130 --> 00:48:46,025
No one in that audience
is ever gonna be the same.

1304
00:48:46,049 --> 00:48:47,675
Did you hear that applause?

1305
00:48:47,717 --> 00:48:49,357
And that's not because
it's taking so long

1306
00:48:49,385 --> 00:48:50,863
to reach here from the back
that it's just arriving.

1307
00:48:50,887 --> 00:48:52,114
No, that's because
they like Ike!

1308
00:48:52,138 --> 00:48:55,016
- They like Ike!
- All right, you win.

1309
00:48:55,058 --> 00:48:57,685
- Uh, one more time?
- She's great. I want her back.

1310
00:48:57,727 --> 00:48:59,788
You sure? You want to wait till
she gets a little double chin?

1311
00:48:59,812 --> 00:49:01,439
- No.
- I was gonna take her in the bathroom

1312
00:49:01,481 --> 00:49:03,042
and break her nose
to make her a little funnier.

1313
00:49:03,066 --> 00:49:04,942
No. No, no, no.
I want her just like that.

1314
00:49:04,984 --> 00:49:06,361
Don't change a thing!

1315
00:49:06,402 --> 00:49:08,029
I fucking love the Catskills.

1316
00:49:08,071 --> 00:49:10,448
Why didn't he leave?
Why didn't he leave?

1317
00:49:10,490 --> 00:49:12,784
- Who?
- Man, front row,

1318
00:49:12,825 --> 00:49:14,369
60 years old, mustache,

1319
00:49:14,410 --> 00:49:15,787
Polynesian clothes.

1320
00:49:15,828 --> 00:49:17,205
Doesn't narrow it down.

1321
00:49:17,246 --> 00:49:18,956
- My father.
- Your father?

1322
00:49:18,998 --> 00:49:20,541
- Your father was out there?
- Yes.

1323
00:49:20,583 --> 00:49:22,627
You said all that shit
in front of your father?

1324
00:49:22,669 --> 00:49:24,462
Wow, you have got balls.

1325
00:49:24,504 --> 00:49:26,422
Is he still there?

1326
00:49:27,423 --> 00:49:29,801
Nope. Nowhere to be seen.

1327
00:49:29,842 --> 00:49:32,845
MIDGE:
That's because he's here.

1328
00:49:45,650 --> 00:49:48,403
I'm taking you home.

1329
00:50:08,589 --> 00:50:11,342
Are we in trouble?

1330
