00:26:11,126 --> 00:26:12,166
Ooh!

466
00:26:12,252 --> 00:26:14,092
- That fits like a glove.
- Yeah. That's it.

467
00:26:14,171 --> 00:26:16,131
- I like it.
- I wanna try this.

468
00:26:16,215 --> 00:26:18,715
- Oh, no.
- Don't do... No.

469
00:26:18,801 --> 00:26:20,721
- [Dick] Ready?
- Okay.

470
00:26:20,803 --> 00:26:23,473
- God... Put your leg over the back of it.
- No, no, no.

471
00:26:23,555 --> 00:26:25,055
I wanna... I'm doing sidesaddle.

472
00:26:25,557 --> 00:26:27,847
Fred, why hasn't Dick done a show
for the network?

473
00:26:27,935 --> 00:26:30,575
Oh, I'm sorry. You might have him
confused with some other Dick Lundy

474
00:26:30,604 --> 00:26:32,214
who would deign
to do broadcast television.

475
00:26:32,231 --> 00:26:34,511
I mean, this guy is a filmmaker, damn it.
He wears berets.

476
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:37,950
We should send Dick
to meet with Cory Ellison.

477
00:26:38,028 --> 00:26:39,948
Yeah, do a little spin-off
of <i>Late Bloomers</i>.

478
00:26:40,030 --> 00:26:42,240
I mean, after all,
it is the number one show in America.

479
00:26:42,324 --> 00:26:44,124
All the bus stops say so.
It's gotta be true.

480
00:26:44,201 --> 00:26:45,951
That's the middle-aged lesbian show?

481
00:26:46,036 --> 00:26:47,996
The major hit "middle-age lesbian show."

482
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,670
Listen, I gotta hand it to the guy.

483
00:26:49,748 --> 00:26:53,378
Only Cory would have taken that pitch,
let alone put it on the air.

484
00:26:53,460 --> 00:26:56,130
Oh, Jesus. And in his first
development season? It's ballsy.

485
00:26:56,213 --> 00:26:57,213
The guy takes chances.

486
00:26:57,297 --> 00:26:59,677
- Yeah.
- Now, he's a little... unusual.

487
00:26:59,758 --> 00:27:01,258
- He's weird.
- He does take chances.

488
00:27:01,343 --> 00:27:04,223
Well, that's why he's the president
of entertainment and not news.

489
00:27:04,305 --> 00:27:06,365
I don't know, Reid.
You might have to take some big swings.

490
00:27:06,390 --> 00:27:08,030
<i>Your Day, America's </i>nipping at our heels.

491
00:27:08,100 --> 00:27:10,480
Okay. I'll start by adding lesbians.

492
00:27:11,103 --> 00:27:13,543
Good call. All right, gents,
I'm gonna go check on the real cake.

493
00:27:13,564 --> 00:27:14,734
Good talking to you, Chip.

494
00:27:15,774 --> 00:27:17,284
How much did the Ducati cost us?

495
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,739
Oh, not that much really.
I mean, it's a custom job. Ninety K or so.

496
00:27:20,821 --> 00:27:23,621
It hardly seems enough given how much
money he's made for the network.

497
00:27:23,699 --> 00:27:25,329
- Yeah.
- I'm glad to see him so happy.

498
00:27:25,409 --> 00:27:27,789
We're lucky to have him.
He just gets better with age.

499
00:27:27,870 --> 00:27:29,160
Yeah.

500
00:27:31,915 --> 00:27:34,035
Have you seen the last numbers on Alex?

501
00:27:35,336 --> 00:27:38,916
Yeah. I can accept the scores
on trustworthiness.

502
00:27:39,006 --> 00:27:40,816
In this climate,
every journalist has taken a hit,

503
00:27:40,841 --> 00:27:43,471
but her authenticity
and relatability numbers?

504
00:27:43,552 --> 00:27:44,552
- Yeah.
- Shit.

505
00:27:44,637 --> 00:27:46,467
- Yeah.
- When did that fucking happen?

506
00:27:47,056 --> 00:27:49,476
People just see her as
rich and powerful now.

507
00:27:50,017 --> 00:27:52,937
A "girl next door" was always her magic.

508
00:27:53,687 --> 00:27:55,897
Yeah. Breaks my heart.

509
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,570
It never would occur to me,
when I hired her,

510
00:27:58,651 --> 00:28:01,491
that I might still be around to
put her out to pasture.

511
00:28:02,821 --> 00:28:05,911
Come on. We're not there yet.
We can still reinvent her a little.

512
00:28:09,078 --> 00:28:11,408
Yeah. Yeah. Course. Sure.

513
00:28:11,997 --> 00:28:14,037
We give it time. Let's see what happens.

514
00:28:15,918 --> 00:28:19,668
Time is cruel,
and youth is wasted on the young.

515
00:28:28,806 --> 00:28:30,806
Excuse me, Yanko.

516
00:28:31,225 --> 00:28:34,345
I just wanted to introduce myself.
I'm Claire. I'm the new PA.

517
00:28:34,436 --> 00:28:37,016
- Oh, hey. Nice to meet you. Hi.
- Hey. Nice to meet you.

518
00:28:37,106 --> 00:28:39,316
Well, welcome. Welcome to the show.

519
00:28:40,025 --> 00:28:42,275
It's quite a baptism into this world.

520
00:28:42,361 --> 00:28:45,111
[Claire] Yeah, and I plan to christen
myself in gin and tonics.

521
00:28:45,197 --> 00:28:46,317
- Nice.
- By the way,

522
00:28:46,407 --> 00:28:48,697
I really enjoyed your piece
on Puerto Rico.

523
00:28:48,784 --> 00:28:51,164
It was incredibly moving.
You're very good.

524
00:28:51,245 --> 00:28:54,575
And I can tell that doing the weather
actually means something to you,

525
00:28:54,665 --> 00:28:56,535
which is unusual. And nice.

526
00:28:56,959 --> 00:28:58,959
- [laughs]
- Well, thank you, Claire.

527
00:29:00,045 --> 00:29:02,005
You have a great deal of depth, don't you?

528
00:29:03,924 --> 00:29:06,594
No. No. I'm actually incredibly shallow.

529
00:29:08,053 --> 00:29:09,723
Well, I'll be the judge of that.

530
00:29:11,390 --> 00:29:13,680
- Enjoy the party.
- Yeah. You too.

- Oh, hey. Hi.

- How are you?
- I know, I know. Don't make a big deal.

534
00:29:32,328 --> 00:29:35,748
Oh, hey. Hey.
Nice job getting that senator Friday.

535
00:29:36,749 --> 00:29:39,169
Oh, yeah. Wow. How'd you know?

536
00:29:39,585 --> 00:29:43,085
Well, I kinda know everything that goes on
around this place.

537
00:29:43,172 --> 00:29:45,842
I know that Jared... Where is he?

538
00:29:45,924 --> 00:29:49,804
Jared is lazy and complacent,
and you did the right thing speaking up.

539
00:29:51,013 --> 00:29:54,143
You know what you did?
You made the show better on Friday.

540
00:29:54,224 --> 00:29:55,564
Categorically better.

541
00:29:55,643 --> 00:29:59,903
So, thank you for your efforts,
and keep up the good work.

542
00:30:00,898 --> 00:30:01,898
Thank you so much.

it really matters. You know?

but is that all there is?

you achieve all of these things,

00:34:21,408 --> 00:34:23,698
Nah. I have to be here
in a couple of hours.

618
00:34:24,244 --> 00:34:25,664
I'll sleep when I'm dead.

619
00:34:29,333 --> 00:34:30,793
Fuck it.

620
00:34:31,335 --> 00:34:33,705
[taps on table]
Fuck it!

621
00:34:34,963 --> 00:34:36,593
That's my boy.

622
00:34:50,688 --> 00:34:52,268
[notification chimes]

623
00:35:06,286 --> 00:35:08,076
- Chip.
- I'm up. What happened?

624
00:35:08,538 --> 00:35:10,698
There's a shooting in Las Vegas,
happening as we speak.

625
00:35:11,792 --> 00:35:14,172
Oh, fu... Holy fuck. Okay, I got it.

626
00:35:14,253 --> 00:35:17,303
[Hannah] It's active.
Outside a concert near Mandalay Bay.

627
00:35:17,381 --> 00:35:19,111
The police have been dispatched
to the hotel.

628
00:35:19,132 --> 00:35:21,932
Wait, someone's
firing into a fucking concert?

629
00:35:22,011 --> 00:35:23,011
Rena, get in here.

630
00:35:23,554 --> 00:35:26,024
I mean... Is it still active?
How many are dead? Jesus Christ.

631
00:35:26,098 --> 00:35:27,138
It's not clear.

632
00:35:27,224 --> 00:35:30,234
Someone is saying that there
are multiple shooters in multiple hotels.

633
00:35:30,311 --> 00:35:31,951
[Hannah]
I saw that, but it's unconfirmed.

634
00:35:33,647 --> 00:35:36,647
Let's get... Let's get somebody from LA
to cover it right now.

635
00:35:36,734 --> 00:35:39,614
- Go get Mitch and Alex and tell 'em we...
- Mitch is still here.

636
00:35:39,695 --> 00:35:42,125
Get him! Make sure he gets on a plane
as soon as fucking possible.

637
00:35:42,156 --> 00:35:43,876
- Got it!
- I'll call Reid, get the jet approved.

638
00:35:43,907 --> 00:35:46,187
Get Mitch and Alex on that plane
fucking five minutes ago.

639
00:35:46,243 --> 00:35:47,243
Copy.

640
00:35:50,914 --> 00:35:52,424
[Chip]
Oh, Mitch. Good, you're ready.

641
00:35:52,499 --> 00:35:55,999
Car is waiting outside, and
Alex is already on her way to the airport.

642
00:35:56,086 --> 00:35:58,506
We're sending Alex too?
You think that's necessary?

643
00:35:58,589 --> 00:36:02,179
I mean, this is huge. We're doing the
whole show from there, so I need you both.

644
00:36:02,593 --> 00:36:05,393
Okay. If that's your call, Captain.

645
00:36:05,471 --> 00:36:08,311
Chip, I can't get ahold of Jared.
I'm still trying...

646
00:36:08,390 --> 00:36:10,430
Oh, you know what? Fuck Jared.
He's slipping.

647
00:36:11,685 --> 00:36:14,225
Send that junior booker, Hannah.
She's excellent.

648
00:36:15,814 --> 00:36:16,984
Yeah, that's a good idea.

649
00:36:17,066 --> 00:36:20,316
- Let's find Hannah, and find Mia for me.
- Okay.

650
00:36:20,402 --> 00:36:22,402
Hey, I've been meaning
to talk to you about Mia.

651
00:36:22,488 --> 00:36:25,568
I think maybe you should take her off
my team, put her on Alex's team.

652
00:36:26,492 --> 00:36:28,582
It's just kind of uncomfortable right now.

653
00:36:28,661 --> 00:36:30,911
She's great,
but it's not a good situation.

654
00:36:33,999 --> 00:36:35,959
[Chip]
Mitch wants to move you off his team.

655
00:36:38,379 --> 00:36:39,589
Why?

656
00:36:41,090 --> 00:36:43,430
I think it's... it's just too awkward.

657
00:36:47,763 --> 00:36:49,243
He's punishing me for breaking things off.

658
00:36:49,264 --> 00:36:50,624
- No, he is not.
- Yeah, he is. Come on.

659
00:36:50,641 --> 00:36:52,231
Do not take this personally, okay?

660
00:36:53,727 --> 00:36:55,347
Things got messy, okay?

661
00:36:55,437 --> 00:36:58,647
It's nobody's fault, but he does have
a right to say who he wants on his team.

662
00:36:58,732 --> 00:37:00,732
And I'm sorry. It's...

663
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:04,320
Where you gonna put me?

664
00:37:04,822 --> 00:37:06,872
- On Alex's team.
- Oh, my God.

665
00:37:06,949 --> 00:37:10,239
It's gonna be best, all things considered.
I'll speak with her about it.

666
00:37:12,246 --> 00:37:13,536
So I'm not going to Vegas?

667
00:37:14,289 --> 00:37:15,289
No.

668
00:37:15,708 --> 00:37:17,328
You get to stay back here with me.

669
00:37:18,419 --> 00:37:19,669
[chuckles]

670
00:37:20,504 --> 00:37:23,514
Listen. I really need
your help on this one.

671
00:37:26,343 --> 00:37:27,433
Okay, boss.

672
00:37:28,512 --> 00:37:30,892
I'll get on social,
figure out everything I can.

673
00:37:33,267 --> 00:37:34,937
- [door opens]
- [sighs]

674
00:37:35,686 --> 00:37:37,396
- [door closes]
- Shit.

675
00:37:37,479 --> 00:37:39,769
It's gonna be a block of rooms.
Fifteen people.

676
00:37:39,857 --> 00:37:43,237
At least two suites,
as close to the scene as possible.

677
00:37:43,319 --> 00:37:44,459
- [Hannah] You're looking for me?
- Yeah.

678
00:37:44,486 --> 00:37:46,156
You're going to Vegas to do the booking.

679
00:37:46,238 --> 00:37:47,868
- Me?
- Yeah, you're leaving now.

680
00:37:47,948 --> 00:37:49,028
What about Jared?

681
00:37:49,116 --> 00:37:50,826
Mitch wants you. So...

682
00:37:53,912 --> 00:37:56,752
Congrats.
Now get the fuck out of here. Please.

683
00:37:57,541 --> 00:37:58,541
Thank you.

684

Why do people keep doing this?

700
00:38:47,633 --> 00:38:49,053
[Mitch] I wish I knew.

701
00:38:49,718 --> 00:38:51,468
It's just so overwhelming.

- You can't cry right now.
- I know. I know.

Four, three...

707
00:39:06,318 --> 00:39:08,108
We're coming to you from Las Vegas,

708
00:39:08,195 --> 00:39:11,405
where over 50 people are confirmed dead
and hundreds injured

709
00:39:11,490 --> 00:39:15,790
in what will go down as the deadliest
mass shooting in US history.

710
00:39:16,620 --> 00:39:20,080
Last night, a gunman opened fire
from the window of a guest room

711
00:39:20,165 --> 00:39:24,335
at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino
into a sea of concertgoers

712
00:39:24,420 --> 00:39:27,210
at the Route 91 Harvest Festival.

713
00:39:27,297 --> 00:39:29,587
A motive has yet to be determined.

714
00:39:30,009 --> 00:39:35,009
As a city and a nation mourn
in the wake of this horrific tragedy,

715
00:39:35,097 --> 00:39:39,767
we will be with you to try to make sense
of an act that cannot be made sense of.

716
00:39:42,271 --> 00:39:44,151
Yes, okay. Of course.

717
00:39:44,648 --> 00:39:45,938
All right, see you soon.

718
00:39:47,818 --> 00:39:49,148
- Hey, Greg. Um...
- Yeah.

719
00:39:49,236 --> 00:39:53,066
I'm gonna meet a girl
whose friend was killed last night.

720
00:39:53,157 --> 00:39:56,657
Um, she thinks she might be willing
to go on the show tomorrow.

721
00:39:57,202 --> 00:39:58,202
Good work, Hannah.

722
00:39:59,163 --> 00:40:00,163
Okay.

723
00:40:00,247 --> 00:40:02,327
[phone buzzes]

724
00:40:08,756 --> 00:40:10,506
Do you think we're dead inside?

725
00:40:12,509 --> 00:40:15,049
I think we're in an induced coma.

726
00:40:19,391 --> 00:40:21,391
How long can we keep doing this?

727
00:40:23,062 --> 00:40:28,652
It's just not natural
to face this kind of pain...

728
00:40:29,485 --> 00:40:32,565
this often... on this level.

729
00:40:34,281 --> 00:40:37,161
Yeah, I don't know. It's awful.

730
00:40:38,243 --> 00:40:40,413
But it might be
the most natural thing there is.

731
00:40:42,289 --> 00:40:45,789
Pain is the most innate part
of the human experience I can think of.

732
00:40:50,130 --> 00:40:52,340
Oh. It's very depressing.

733
00:40:54,093 --> 00:41:00,023
It's funny, because, really, the unnatural
part is having this much money.

734
00:41:01,809 --> 00:41:06,109
Part of being this successful is having
enough money to not have to see the pain.

735
00:41:06,563 --> 00:41:09,193
That's why everybody wants to live
in these really nice,

736
00:41:09,274 --> 00:41:11,904
upscale, safe neighborhoods.

737
00:41:12,528 --> 00:41:17,118
So they don't have to
see the realities of life.

738
00:41:20,828 --> 00:41:22,998
The world is unfair and sad.

739
00:41:23,497 --> 00:41:24,747
It's ugly.

740
00:41:25,374 --> 00:41:27,464
And we hide from it in our wealth.

741
00:41:29,211 --> 00:41:31,761
But then the way you and I make our money,

742
00:41:31,839 --> 00:41:35,589
is we put ourselves right in the middle
of everybody else's pain.

743
00:41:38,846 --> 00:41:40,006
[scoffs]

744
00:41:41,974 --> 00:41:43,564
But here we are,

745
00:41:44,143 --> 00:41:47,153
with no escape hatch
on this very lucrative,

747
00:41:51,984 --> 00:41:56,784

every day if I didn't have you.

748
00:41:57,698 --> 00:41:58,868
I really don't.

749
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:02,660
Well, Alex...

750
00:42:06,123 --> 00:42:10,593
you are my best friend,
and all bullshit aside,

751
00:42:10,669 --> 00:42:12,299
you're like a part of me.

752
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,210
You always will be.

753
00:42:15,883 --> 00:42:17,183
Me too, honey.

754
00:42:27,269 --> 00:42:28,939
Okay. We should get back to the hotel.

755
00:42:29,021 --> 00:42:31,731
No. No, no, no, no. Don't go.

756
00:42:31,815 --> 00:42:35,025
There's a bar somewhere
with our name on it, calling to us.

757
00:42:35,110 --> 00:42:36,740
We should... We should go drinking.

758
00:42:37,696 --> 00:42:38,816
[chuckles]

759
00:42:39,740 --> 00:42:42,490
You have barely slept in 48 hours.

760
00:42:43,410 --> 00:42:44,830
It's time to put you to bed.

761
00:42:44,912 --> 00:42:46,332
- I know. You're right.
- I know.

762
00:42:46,997 --> 00:42:48,537
- You're always right.
- Yeah.

763
00:42:49,166 --> 00:42:51,086
Will you always tell me what to do?

764
00:42:51,460 --> 00:42:53,300
- I can do that.

Hey. Hiya.

771
00:44:30,100 --> 00:44:31,190
How you doing?

772
00:44:32,436 --> 00:44:34,476
Oh, I'm... I'm fine.

773
00:44:35,731 --> 00:44:36,771
Really?

774
00:44:38,692 --> 00:44:42,282
You shouldn't be.
There's nothing fine about this.

775
00:44:44,031 --> 00:44:45,821
[helicopters whirring]

776
00:44:52,289 --> 00:44:53,669
Let's walk back to the hotel.

777
00:44:57,544 --> 00:45:00,134
[song continues]

778
00:45:01,757 --> 00:45:04,547
This is tough. This one especially.

779
00:45:06,887 --> 00:45:10,097
You know, you can't beat yourself up
over not being a robot.

780
00:45:10,432 --> 00:45:14,272
Sometimes you just have to
feel sad as shit and live with it.

781
00:45:15,688 --> 00:45:18,068
Okay then. I'm sad as shit.

782
00:45:18,148 --> 00:45:20,278
[chuckles] That-a-girl.

783
00:45:26,073 --> 00:45:29,663
I don't think I've ever learned
so much in a single day.

784
00:45:30,369 --> 00:45:32,369
Yeah, you're a sponge, aren't you?

785
00:45:32,454 --> 00:45:35,794
You just absorb stuff.
Absorb all sorts of information.

786
00:45:35,874 --> 00:45:37,134
That's what makes you smart.

787
00:45:38,085 --> 00:45:42,205
And you really care about your job.
That's why I wanted you to be here.

788
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:47,760
Thank you.

789
00:45:49,138 --> 00:45:50,138
Thank you.

790
00:45:51,348 --> 00:45:52,598
[song continues]

791
00:46:06,071 --> 00:46:07,571
[song ends]

792
00:46:09,658 --> 00:46:12,368
[Alex]
<i>Chip, this doesn't make any sense.</i>

793
00:46:12,453 --> 00:46:16,003
<i>I was just with him.
He didn't mention a word about this.</i>

794
00:46:16,373 --> 00:46:18,003
Does he honestly think I'm...

795
00:46:18,792 --> 00:46:22,462
No, I'm not...
I'm not taking Mitch's hand-me-downs.

796
00:46:22,546 --> 00:46:24,466
Alex, Mia is not a hand-me-down.

797
00:46:25,215 --> 00:46:27,585
<i>So, he's not comfortable with her
on his team?</i>

798
00:46:27,676 --> 00:46:30,546
Well, I'm not comfortable with her
on my team. You know what?

799
00:46:31,472 --> 00:46:34,182
He can shit where he eats
all that he wants,

800
00:46:34,266 --> 00:46:37,186
but I am not his fucking trash can.

801
00:46:38,187 --> 00:46:42,727
Okay. Hold on. Okay. Mitch has done
really, really well with Mia on his team.

802
00:46:42,816 --> 00:46:45,776
And maybe with her on your team, you know,
she might help you...

803
00:46:45,861 --> 00:46:50,911
Are you really trying to tell me that
Mia on my team will help me test better?

804
00:46:51,950 --> 00:46:53,870
No, Alex, all I am saying is you...

805
00:46:53,952 --> 00:46:55,122
<i>No, that's it. I'm done.</i>

806
00:46:55,204 --> 00:46:56,834
I'm hanging up on you. I'm over this.

807
00:46:56,914 --> 00:46:58,084
<i>Alex... Come on.</i>

808
00:47:00,751 --> 00:47:02,091
[line beeps]

809
00:47:03,170 --> 00:47:04,210
Fuck.

810
00:47:05,047 --> 00:47:06,257
Great.

811
00:47:08,634 --> 00:47:10,744
[Mitch]<i> You know what I think about
when I'm sad as shit...</i>

812
00:47:10,761 --> 00:47:13,351
- What?
- And trying not to kill myself?

813
00:47:13,430 --> 00:47:14,470
Stupid things.

814
00:47:15,641 --> 00:47:20,941
Like this one time, I was younger
than you, just getting started.

815
00:47:21,772 --> 00:47:25,322
KQWK in Sacramento,

816
00:47:25,818 --> 00:47:29,448
ten minutes before 6:00,
the anchor's appendix burst.

817
00:47:30,197 --> 00:47:33,737
That's... No. That's not...
That's not the funny part.

818
00:47:34,451 --> 00:47:39,001
So, none of the fill-ins were available,
so they came to me.

819
00:47:39,498 --> 00:47:42,538
Now, I assure you,
I was way, way down on their list.

820
00:47:42,626 --> 00:47:45,416
I bet that they went to the janitor
before they came to me.

821
00:47:45,504 --> 00:47:46,964
They asked him, he turned it down,

822
00:47:47,047 --> 00:47:49,677
and then they came knocking
on Mitch Kessler's door.

823
00:47:50,426 --> 00:47:53,216
And I was scared shitless.

824
00:47:53,304 --> 00:47:57,394
My shit had left town on a bus.

825
00:47:58,475 --> 00:47:59,935
Um...

826
00:48:00,019 --> 00:48:03,559
But I just figured, you know, I want this.

827
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,360
This is my opportunity to show the people
who make the decisions

828
00:48:08,444 --> 00:48:09,744
that I got the goods.

829
00:48:10,154 --> 00:48:11,824
So, I gathered myself,

830
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,739
I put on my very finest tie,

831
00:48:15,492 --> 00:48:19,122
and I went and I assumed my place
at the anchor desk.

832
00:48:19,913 --> 00:48:21,873
And then I passed out.

833
00:48:21,957 --> 00:48:22,957
[Hannah laughs]

834
00:48:23,042 --> 00:48:25,672
And I went right over
the back of the chair.

835
00:48:25,753 --> 00:48:28,843
And I woke up in an ambulance.

836
00:48:28,922 --> 00:48:34,432
The EMTs told me that I kept throwing
to them for sports and weather.

837
00:48:35,137 --> 00:48:38,847
Twenty-seven stitches. Look at that.
Right there.

838
00:48:38,932 --> 00:48:40,682
- Oh, my God.
- Yep.

839
00:48:40,768 --> 00:48:43,848
I am very happy
that I don't have Daniel's hair.

840
00:48:44,938 --> 00:48:45,938
You...

841
00:48:46,774 --> 00:48:49,234
You didn't fall out of a chair.
You're doing great.

842
00:48:50,736 --> 00:48:54,566
I know that this is a really dark day
to associate with your big break,

843
00:48:54,657 --> 00:48:56,947
but that's the gig.

844
00:48:57,743 --> 00:49:02,673
Sometimes it's strange, sometimes
downright awful, but you're doing it.

845
00:49:05,125 --> 00:49:08,875
And you are helping to bring the news
to the world,

846
00:49:08,962 --> 00:49:10,592
and you should be proud of that.

847
00:49:12,508 --> 00:49:15,838
- Thank you.
- Oh, yeah. I'm a font of wisdom.

848
00:49:16,512 --> 00:49:18,182
I appreciate the pep talk.

849
00:49:18,263 --> 00:49:21,023
Yuck. Thank you. Thank you.

850
00:49:21,100 --> 00:49:22,230
Oh!

851
00:49:22,309 --> 00:49:26,019
Actually, when I'm really depressed,

852
00:49:26,105 --> 00:49:29,315
there is one thing that I do have
in my arsenal.

853
00:49:32,027 --> 00:49:33,957
[man] <i>Why don't you
improve your lie a little, sir?</i>

854
00:49:33,988 --> 00:49:36,048
- [man 2] <i>Yes, yes. Winter rules. Right.</i>
- [Mitch laughs]

855
00:49:36,073 --> 00:49:37,473
I can't believe you've never seen this.

856
00:49:37,491 --> 00:49:39,031
[man 3] <i>Double farts!</i>

857
00:49:39,118 --> 00:49:40,698
[Mitch chuckling]

858
00:49:41,787 --> 00:49:43,787
- [man 4] <i>Fore!</i>
- [man 1] <i>Fine shot.</i>

859
00:49:46,583 --> 00:49:47,633
[chuckling]

860
00:49:47,710 --> 00:49:50,800
<i>- Oh!
- I shoulda yelled "two."</i>

861
00:49:50,879 --> 00:49:53,439
- Wow. Is it really that bad?
- <i>Why don't you walk this off, sir?</i>

862
00:49:53,465 --> 00:49:55,925
- You hate it.
- I'm sorry.

863
00:49:56,010 --> 00:49:57,450
<i>Hey, what do you got in here? Rocks?</i>

864
00:49:57,511 --> 00:50:01,061
<i>Are you kidding? When I was your age,
I would lug 50 pounds of ice up five...</i>

865
00:50:01,140 --> 00:50:05,890
It's just... I'm not an expert
at shoving it down just yet. I'm sorry.

866
00:50:05,978 --> 00:50:07,478
- I'll try...
- No, no, no, no.

867
00:50:09,315 --> 00:50:10,605
[sighs]

868
00:50:10,691 --> 00:50:12,531
You're probably healthier than I am.

869
00:50:16,780 --> 00:50:19,410
Maybe I'm just tired,
and it's catching up with me.

870
00:50:20,659 --> 00:50:21,789
Yeah.

871
00:50:23,787 --> 00:50:25,457
I should go.

872
00:50:29,543 --> 00:50:32,303
I know you have to be up early,
'cause I do too.

873
00:50:32,379 --> 00:50:33,379
No, it's okay.

874
00:50:35,132 --> 00:50:36,302
Thanks.

875
00:51:03,410 --> 00:51:04,790
You smell good.

876
00:51:08,666 --> 00:51:09,916
[kisses]

877
00:51:17,716 --> 00:51:18,716
I like you.

878
00:51:22,805 --> 00:51:25,015
I like you too.

879
00:51:43,951 --> 00:51:47,001
This isn't what
I expected when I came up here.

880
00:51:47,496 --> 00:51:48,576
I know.

881
00:51:49,289 --> 00:51:51,249
It's a nice surprise though, isn't it?

882
00:51:53,168 --> 00:51:54,248
You know?

883
00:51:55,295 --> 00:51:56,335
Hey.

884
00:51:59,174 --> 00:52:00,974
It's okay. Just wanna feel good.

885
00:52:09,393 --> 00:52:11,023
You're so beautiful.

886

[belt buckle clinking]

887
00:52:14,356 --> 00:52:15,516
It's okay.

- [man 1] Right.

893
00:54:21,483 --> 00:54:23,283
- Ready to go.
- [woman] Yeah.

894
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:24,920
[man 1] We just need to come up with...

895
00:54:25,529 --> 00:54:27,569
[woman]
No, that's exactly what he said.

896
00:54:28,907 --> 00:54:31,447
So we're just gonna put that up front now.

897
00:54:32,453 --> 00:54:34,873
We're turning to something
a little bit more...

898
00:54:36,957 --> 00:54:38,247
[Rena] Hannah.

899

[singsongy] Hannah.

900
00:54:41,879 --> 00:54:43,339
Here are the Springsteen tickets

901
00:54:43,422 --> 00:54:46,432
that Jared needed
for the mother of the septuplets.

902
00:54:47,593 --> 00:54:49,093
- Oh, right. Yeah.
- Yeah.

903
00:54:49,178 --> 00:54:50,508
I'll get those to him.

904
00:54:52,097 --> 00:54:53,097
Hey.

905
00:54:54,516 --> 00:54:55,846
How was Vegas?

906
00:55:00,105 --> 00:55:02,725
- It was really sad.
- Yeah.

907
00:55:12,868 --> 00:55:14,788
- [woman] Hey, Mitch. Welcome back.
- Thank you.

908
00:55:18,791 --> 00:55:19,791
Hey, Hannah.

[man] Hey.
You can't go in there right now.

912
00:57:05,064 --> 00:57:06,944
I work downstairs. I need to speak to you.

913
00:57:07,024 --> 00:57:10,034
- I'm sorry. I told her...
- No, it's fine, James. Give us a moment.

914
00:57:17,576 --> 00:57:20,286
I just got back from Las Vegas
with <i>The Morning Show</i>.

915
00:57:23,791 --> 00:57:25,041
What is it, dear?

916
00:57:33,884 --> 00:57:38,894
Mitch Kessler invited me to his room
to watch a movie, and he wound up...

[shaky breathing]

He...

919
00:57:45,437 --> 00:57:47,437
[voice cracks] He wound up...

920
00:57:47,940 --> 00:57:50,190
[sobs] He...

921
00:57:50,818 --> 00:57:52,148
You don't have to say it.

922
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:54,820
You don't have to say anything.

923
00:57:56,407 --> 00:57:57,657
What's your name?

924
00:57:59,868 --> 00:58:00,908
Uh...

925
00:58:01,370 --> 00:58:05,210
I'm Han... I'm Hannah Shoenfeld.
