Actually, the first test he needs to do is
long division , he can't be late.

You really think we need a test
to determine if he knows long division?

00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,604
we're Iooking for.
All we need is data.

154
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,330
Where's Collins?

155
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,006
- He was arrested .
- Of course he is.

156
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,162
All right, let's get a move on .
Come on .

157
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,007
PAIGE:
My God , was he always like this?

158
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,685
Looks like he had a Ionely few years.

159
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,569
Oh , tough for him .

160
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,444
What's the story with this Collins?

161
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,123
Well , if you didn't agree with him,
he'd argue with you until you did .

162
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,965
And he knew his mind games.

163
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,600
The worst of it
was how he affected Walter.

164
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,001
He'd get in his head ,
erase his good judgment

165
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,970
- and forget we existed .
- Guys.

166
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,646
We're supposed to be working here.

167
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,849
They really don't like this guy. Maybe
you should've told them up front.

168
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,761
I'm just saying
secrets breed mistrust.

169
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,322
2004, 2005 through 2014.

170
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,363
PIaying all the hits
from the obsessive top 40.

171
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,045
Got the tape from March 25th .

172
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,043
Queue up 6:32 a. m .

173
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,169
It's incredible work.

174
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,569
So this guy was like you guys,
and then this?

175
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,007
It happens sometimes.
With Mark it was intense, though .

176
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,164
Like, if you played chess with him,
he'd make you doubt your every move

177
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,561
and then blammo, checkmate.

178
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,404
Against you?

179
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:56,803
GALLO:
Walter. Walter.

180
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,928
Walter.

181
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,886
- Walter!
- What?

182
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,886
I said your name four times.

183
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,241
I'm good .

184
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,726
PIay the tape. 6:32 a. m.

185
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,680
MAN : <i>But, sir, I'm almost certain</i>
<i>there 'll be a major problem</i>

186
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,167
<i>unless we find a way
to run the SCADA update.</i>

187
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,407
Nothing until 6:46.

188
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,206
- Channel went dark for 14 minutes.
- Who was that on tape?

189
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,081
A scientist at the reactor,
talking over an internal radio.

190
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,730
- And SCADA?
- These old reactors

191
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,928
run on ancient 1980s technology.

192
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,765
SCADA is the brain
that controls the rest of the system .

193
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,610
And it needs to be kept up-to-date.

194
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,001
What are they covering up?

195
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,202
Collins has been down here
for years

196
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,283
capturing everything he could
on his neighbor,

197
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,528
the Montero nuclear power plant.

198
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:48,603
Rising ocean temperatures,

199
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,286
radiation Ievels near the plant.

200
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,125
Right. So the water is getting warmer,
more radioactive.

201
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,567
Then someone at the power plant
says there's a problem ,

202
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,927
- communications went blank.
- Collins is alerting us

203
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,731
to a major problem at the reactor
that's being actively ignored .

204
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,451
- Why would someone do that?
- Bureaucratic cover-your-ass.

205
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,804
Shocking to think that would extend
to nuclear materials, but it does.

206
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,970
Okay, so we pass this on to the Army
and we are done here, right?

207
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:13,724
No. Collins wouldn't have called us

208
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,644
unless he thought it needed
our expertise.

209
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,450
Since when does he call us?

210
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,409
General Walker
said he needs our help.

211
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:21,324
Who knows how dangerous
the situation is?

212
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,648
- Exactly.
- Guys, what's happening here?

213
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:30,442
We just took a job upgrading
an ancient nuclear power plant.

214
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,090
End of story.

215
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,323
Know what's really happening here?
Mark Collins is back in our lives.

216
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,285
If this nuclear power plant
doesn't melt down , the team might.

217
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,648
Oh , this is wonderful .
The creepiest place on Earth .

218
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,929
We'll upgrade the system ,
we'Il be gone in two hours.

219
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,361
Without speaking to Collins,
correct?

220
00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:12,289
The general is coming . General .

221
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,842
All right, somebody educate me.

222
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,643
WALTER:
You guys wait here.

223
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,962
Now, Collins intercepted
discussions

224
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,849
about the reactor software
and computers.

225
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,685
Now, the ones that regulate
the nuclear core temperatures

226
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,808
were installed in the late 1980s.

227
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,169
Walter believes the software should've
been completely updated 15 years ago.

228
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,800
Standard bureaucratic mentality
is to go cheap,

229
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,203
patches on patches. This whole
system becomes a house of cards.

230
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,051
But I'm Iooking at a core temperature
gauge in the green .

231
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,010
Yeah , well , there are shoddy indicators
all around this place.

232
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:46,720
Mind if I try something?

233
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,721
- Thank you .
- The plant's got time-worn fail-safes,

234
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,167
but we're supposed to believe
some rambling lunatic

235
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,561
- we found in a field?
- A brilliant mind

236
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,643
with a likely 190 IQ.

237
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,927
General , you had a loose fuse.

238
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,360
Oh , no.

239
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,922
- Why don't you play the tape?
- General , let me show you something .

240
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,761
MAN [ON RECORDI NG]:
<i>The problem is it stopped regulating</i>

241
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,002
<i>and the SCADA update
is risky as hell.</i>

242
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,525
<i>God help us if it fails.</i>

243
00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:23,081
That's Dr. Fitzsimmons,
lead safety officer of the plant.

244
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,726
On a cell call to his wife
saying that the reactor software

245
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,008
is failing to regulate
the nuclear core temperatures

246
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,602
and he's too scared to say anything .
He runs your safety checks, correct?

247
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,683
He just moved to Pennsylvania
six weeks ago.

248
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,410
H is replacement hasn't been hired .

249
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:39,121
The only regular traffic here
are the M Ps guarding the perimeter.

250
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,611
The reactor's inoperative.

251
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,889
It's in cooldown mode for the next
eight years until it can be dismantled .

252
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,042
WALTER: Except it's not
being properly regulated ,

253
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,124
so it's not cooling down,
it's overheating .

254
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,248
And the system needs
a SCADA update,

255
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,051
supervisory control
and data acquisition .

256
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,124
You know, I confess to a basic
knowledge of the technology here.

257
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,443
So if we're facing the next Fukushima,
tell me that.

258
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,127
General , I can fix this. And as soon
as Collins gets here, we begin .

259
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,322
- Collins?
- So the guy in the tinfoil hat

260
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,801
- is gonna walk us out of this?
- Look.

261
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,970
From listening to chatter,

262
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,802
Collins diagrammed this exactly,
patches on patches.

263
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,286
Now, if we try to upgrade

264
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,450
using the wrong building blocks,
we could fry the whole system.

265
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,009
Collins' knowledge of this mess
could help prevent that.

266
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,960
And given the core temperature,
I'd say we have 18 hours

267
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,964
- before it starts to overheat.
- Don't even say the word "meltdown ."

268
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,283
Keep him in handcuffs
with a gun at his back for all I care.

269
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:34,721
We need him.

270
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,081
TOBY: More on Collins,
he's what my teachers called me:

271
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,242
- A bad influence.
- He and Walter push each other

272
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,171
- and just get lost in the work.
- Theoretical algorithms for days,

273
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,601
no breaks, no food , no sleep,
they'd barely speak.

274
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,444
Sometimes we'd lose Walter
for weeks.

275
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,444
It's called a savant dissociative state,
not pretty.

276
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,683
- Then what?
- Mark just disappeared , thin air.

277
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,126
Walter was pretty affected .

278
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,204
- Simply put, Mark is disruptive.
- So, project manager,

279
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,887
does today strike you
as a good day for disruptive?

280
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,531
GALLO: You going to talk to our man?
- Yes.

281
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:11,801
Good .

282
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,849
I may not know
that much about geniuses,

283
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,889
but I do know when someone's
keeping a secret.

284
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,244
Okay.

285
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,966
You're making
a lot of unilateral decisions

286
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,685
to include a guy no one else wants.

287
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,001
They'll have to deal with it.

288
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,164
I'm trying to keep this facility and
4 million people from getting cooked .

289
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,011
You obviously have a very
different relationship with Collins.

290
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,488
- And you miss it since he left?
- Yes, exactly.

291
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,962
Or is it that he's now alone living
in squalor and you feel bad for him?

292
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,242
You know I don't think emotionally.
That's your job.

293
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,483
Which you're certainly not making it
easy to do.

294
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,166
A Iittle insight would help everyone.

295
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,486
Whoo!

Well , come on .

It runs the reactor.

00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,683
Exactly whom
are we taking orders from?

306
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,370
Both of us.

307
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,602
We need to download
reactor calibrations from here.

- For the civilians?
- Reactor calibrations

tell the computer if hot is too hot,

310
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,762
so it knows what's an alarm
and what's normal .

311
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,043
Can't update the system without
getting that information here first.

Did you get smarter, Sylvester?

313
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:31,765
I think I've always been this smart.

314
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,287
Right. Second thing we need to do

315
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,408
is to prep the system
for the SCADA update,

316
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,724
otherwise it'd be like putting a new V1 2
in an old Model T.

317
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,368
Happy, you and Toby
can handle that.

318
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,483
I do not like him
handing out assignments.

319
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,201
It's efficient, Happy.
We're here to do a job.

320
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,129
Now, the main computer,
that's near here?

Hey.

Thanks for letting me help with this.

337
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,684
It was efficient.

Some things never change.

You've been spending too much time
in your basement.

You could've called the cops
or the military,

but you chose us. Why?

345
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,883
Do you ever think about
any of our old projects?

346
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,328
We were making a lot of progress
on our super symmetry theory.

347
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,370
Maybe when we wrap up here,
you could show me the new data.

00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,722
Maybe you owe me one.

You do understand I wasn't pleased
with the way that things turned out.

Was that EQ, Walter?

Maybe you could reminisce later.

352
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,084

- Boss man's right.

Okay. For this section of code
you're gonna need RPL and Paradox.

It's like they have their own Ianguage.

Imagine that kind of intensity
for three weeks straight.

What is she talking about?

366
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,767

Step one was the reactor calibrations
which we downloaded .

This is step two,
we're programming SCADA update.

550

When we're finished ,
we can send it to the reactor.

551
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,604
The moment this update
hits the reactor,

552
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,082
it's programmed to drop all of the
core temperatures to a normal level .

00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:35,362
in case I ever got to the point where
I couldn't be pulled out on my own .

612
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:36,931
Bull .

613
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,809
You did the right thing .

614
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,440
This Collins fellow?
He's got you questioning yourself

615
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,331
making you think
you did the wrong thing, but you didn't.

616
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,165
He does have a long history of that.

617
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,444
Oh , no.

618
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,281
What's going on?

619
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,164
This override was just switched
to manual 20 minutes ago.

620
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,163
He knew Happy
would run the diagnostics.

621
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,926
He made her think that she did
something wrong when she didn't.

622
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,970
Just like he does in chess.
Makes you doubt your every move.

623
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,726
- He wanted to show up the team .
- Yeah, to prove his worth .

624
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,081
- Mark. No.
- What the hell's he done now?

625
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,203
There's a piece of gear
called an RFDAC.

626
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,488
It converts digital signals
into analogue.

627
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,847
And we need it to send the update
from this computer

628
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,081
to the control room.

629
00:34:23,240 --> 00:34:25,720
- Collins set this all up.
WALTER: It's how he structured it.

630
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,120
He planted a Trojan horse.

631
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,601
He knew it'd be triggered
once Happy ran the system test.

632
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,401
General , I'm sorry to say, there's a
third step, we need analog antennas.

633
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,927
We got them at the base,
but that's a half an hour away.

634
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,566
We need to get to Mark's house.

635
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,650
Good God , how many times are
you gonna play right into his hands?

636
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,326
We should figure something out here.
I don't wanna go to him .

637
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,450
I know I shoved him down your
throats, but please, trust me.

638
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,044
I'm gonna need a sidearm.

- This is our only chance.

643
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,011
Walter, why is an alarm going off?

644
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,003
We got two minutes
to avoid a meltdown .

645
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,010
I need your access codes for the
antennas to send an analogue signal .

646
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:32,531
Didn't work, Mark.

647
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,850
Mark, it didn't work.

648
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,322
- Why are you looking at me like that?
- I need the code, that's all we need .

649
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:40,970
It's the same look
you gave me the day

650
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,363
that the ambulance came to
take me away for two years.

651

- The code, Collins.
- Nine-five-one.

N ine-hundred and 51 days ago

00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,647
Mark and I disproved a section
of the H iggs boson theory.

655
00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,604
COLLI NS:
Excellent work.

- It's 1199.
- What's happening here?

657
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,291
I know Walter found out
that I set this whole thing up.

658
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,681
I listened to your conversation
at the reactor base.

659
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:10,887
The whole place is miked .

660
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,008
- Just over a minute left.
- What's the holdup?

661
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,289
- Just give us the damn code.
- Or what?

662
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:18,081
You'Il shoot me?

663
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,566
That only guarantees you'Il fail .

664
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:25,610
Walter, how do you stand
for such intellectual inferiors?

665
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,401
- The code!
- I told you , it's 1199.

One-one-nine-nine, 1 , 199 days ago.

00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,482
It was May the 20th .
It was a Thursday.

668
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,404
We stayed up all night in the diner,

669
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,291
discussing the quantum
mechanics of time travel .

670
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,125
We could've accomplished
anything together, but you ruined that.

671
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,851
You hate me for what I did , I get it.

672
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,760
And I always debate my decision .

673
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,891
- This isn't the right solution .
- And having me locked up was?

674
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,327
Do you have any idea
how badly that hurt me?

675
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,571
- Less than a minute.
- You think I'm afraid to die, Walter?

676
00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:03,087
I'm not afraid to die.

677
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,330
My life ended the day you destroyed
our partnership, our friendship.

678

I just wanted to show you
that I could save everyone.

679
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,766
- I just wanted back on the team .
- Walter, that's it.

No! Aah!

00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,369
Look out, Sylvester.

684
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,164
All right. Code's in, signal's up.

685
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,801

brought him back from the hospital .

691
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,487
I should've kept
a closer eye on Collins.

692
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,849
- Why didn't you?
- I was focused on the upgrade.

693
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,889
You were focused on a friend .

694
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,164
And you were trying to make right
what happened between you guys.

695
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,608
- So you trusted him .
- That implies I feel guilt.

696
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,689
Acting like a human being
is never a mistake.

697
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,444
It means you're evolving .

It's nice to see
that you're capable of that.

I'm back to Iockup.

00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,010
I showed you the outer Iimits
of your intelligence

703
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,049
and you couldn't handle it.

704
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,680
You couldn't risk me
or anybody else

705

Toby, Happy, Sylvester,
they can't touch my abilities.

So why wasn't there
room for one more?

Maybe I'll see you back down
the rabbit hole, Walter.

00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,722
I hope not.

did for me back there with Collins.

Pulling me away
from that darkness.

I didn't do it for a thank-you .

718
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,721
I did it because you're my friend .

719
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,002
I won't let you down again .

to protect your honor.

No. No, we just dropped by.

726
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,129
Because even
after you save the world ,

727
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,443
you're still all lost in thought,
doing your own separate projects.

728
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,365
Tonight we have a group project:
Chicken piccata.

729
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,648
I don't think we have
a chicken thermometer.

730
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,729
Pizza would be more efficient.

731
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,362
We're all going to get out of our own
heads for a while and cook Italian .

732
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,046
Sounds fine.

733
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,642
PAIG E:
Can you just. . .?

734
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,450
Okay.

735
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,567
If you're trying me out
to see if I work with this team--

736
00:41:14,720 --> 00:41:16,324
- Paige--
- If that's what's happening

737
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,405
and I could end up being a failure
and get discarded one day, just tell me.

738
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,244
I can handle it,
but don't do it to Ralph .

739
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,488
He's grown attached
to the team, especially you ,

740
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,291
- and I don't want to see him hurt.
WALTER: You are one of us.

741
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:30,925
We can't do this without you .

742
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,484
Good?

743
00:41:35,240 --> 00:41:37,163
Let's go cook some chicken piccata.

744
00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:40,848
Measure twice, cut once.

745
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,243
Can we talk about the so-called
extra-virgin olive oil industry?

746
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:45,845
Beaucoup fraud .

747
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,125
Ha, ha. Kid's a natural .
