25
00:02:59,225 --> 00:03:01,268
- Hey, you wanna hear my short story now?

26
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,354
- Huh?

27
00:03:06,482 --> 00:03:09,318
(Marcus groaning)

28
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:12,238
- I can read it to you.

29
00:03:13,197 --> 00:03:14,031
- You mean again?

30
00:03:15,825 --> 00:03:17,702
- Well, I changed the ending a little.

31
00:03:19,912 --> 00:03:21,956
- Oh, what happens now?

32
00:03:23,666 --> 00:03:28,671
- Well, actually it's the same but longer.

33
00:03:29,004 --> 00:03:33,217
I think it's better, more raw.

34
00:03:35,136 --> 00:03:37,346
- Then maybe you should
just read the ending.

35
00:03:38,389 --> 00:03:41,392
- But it won't make sense if
you hear it out of context.

36
00:03:45,271 --> 00:03:47,523
- I think you should
leave it the way it was.

37
00:03:48,566 --> 00:03:49,567
It was good.

38
00:03:53,904 --> 00:03:57,241
- So you don't wanna hear my new ending?

39
00:03:59,243 --> 00:04:00,995
- You'll read it in class tomorrow.

40
00:04:02,538 --> 00:04:03,372
Surprise me.

41
00:04:05,124 --> 00:04:06,125
Anyway, I have to go.

42
00:04:06,125 --> 00:04:08,419

help her with her oral.

45
00:04:20,681 --> 00:04:22,391
- You're tired of me, I can tell.

46
00:04:23,684 --> 00:04:26,479
- Marcus, I'm tired. That's all.

47
00:04:29,648 --> 00:04:32,026
- You've lost interest.

48
00:04:32,026 --> 00:04:35,529
You hardly even sweat
anymore when we have sex.

49
00:04:35,529 --> 00:04:38,032
- I was never much of a
sweater. You know that.

50
00:04:38,866 --> 00:04:41,494
- Look, Vi, I don't blame you.

51
00:04:41,494 --> 00:04:42,828
You feel pity now.

52
00:04:43,704 --> 00:04:45,623
Pleasure isn't there anymore.

53
00:04:47,416 --> 00:04:48,918
The kinkiness is gone.

54
00:04:53,547 --> 00:04:54,590

- "When he saw her, it was

60
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,739
as if he could walk like a normal person.

61
00:05:20,157 --> 00:05:25,162
His legs didn't swing,
his arms didn't spaz away.

62
00:05:27,289 --> 00:05:29,083
He wasn't a freak anymore,

63
00:05:29,083 --> 00:05:32,753
for she made him forget his affliction.

64
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,799
No more cerebral palsy.

65
00:05:38,634 --> 00:05:43,597
From now on, CP stood for cerebral person.

66
00:05:47,476 --> 00:05:49,562
He was a cerebral person."

67
00:06:11,458 --> 00:06:13,627
- I thought that was really good, Marcus.

68
00:06:14,712 --> 00:06:19,049
Really moving and emotional.

69
00:06:19,049 --> 00:06:22,344
- Yeah, I thought it was
really emotional, too.

70
00:06:23,721 --> 00:06:26,891
- And I mean, really good word choices.

71
00:06:29,476 --> 00:06:32,354
It kind of reminded me
a little of Faulkner,

72
00:06:33,230 --> 00:06:35,316
but East Coast and disabled.

73
00:06:36,692 --> 00:06:38,319
- Or Flannery O'Connor.

74
00:06:38,319 --> 00:06:40,571
She had multiple sclerosis.

75
00:06:40,571 --> 00:06:43,115
- And Borges, he was blind.

76
00:06:45,075 --> 00:06:46,869
- Updike has psoriasis.

77
00:06:50,331 --> 00:06:54,668
- Um, maybe I'm wrong, but um,

78
00:06:54,668 --> 00:06:57,546
I'm afraid I found the whole thing

79
00:06:57,546 --> 00:06:58,881
to be a little trite.

80
00:07:00,299 --> 00:07:04,178
Its earnestness is, well uh,

81
00:07:05,262 --> 00:07:07,431
it's a little embarrassing.

82
00:07:07,431 --> 00:07:11,769
And those adjectives are
flatfooted and redundant.

83
00:07:11,769 --> 00:07:13,562
I'm sorry, I mean...

84
00:07:14,563 --> 00:07:16,857
Anyway, don't. (chuckles) What do I know?

85
00:07:16,857 --> 00:07:19,068
Don't even listen to what I say.

86
00:07:19,068 --> 00:07:21,362
I mean. (scoffs)

87
00:07:23,072 --> 00:07:23,906
- Anyone else?

88
00:07:31,121 --> 00:07:32,164
Catherine is right.

89
00:07:33,958 --> 00:07:35,459
Your story is a piece of shit.

90
00:07:36,835 --> 00:07:38,921
You express nothing but banalities,

91
00:07:38,921 --> 00:07:40,381
and, formally speaking,

92
00:07:40,381 --> 00:07:43,759
you are unable to construct
a single compelling sentence.

93
00:07:44,718 --> 00:07:47,638
You ride on a wave of
cliches so worn in fact,

94
00:07:47,638 --> 00:07:50,766
it actually approaches
a level of grotesquerie.

95
00:07:50,766 --> 00:07:54,436
And your subtitle, "The Rawness of Truth,"

96
00:07:57,398 --> 00:07:59,441
is that supposed to be
a joke of some sort?

97
00:08:00,651 --> 00:08:04,279
Or are you just being pretentious?

98
00:08:13,914 --> 00:08:17,918
Okay. (sighs)

99
00:08:20,087 --> 00:08:20,921
Who's next?

100
00:08:29,179 --> 00:08:30,431
(door creaking)

101
00:08:30,431 --> 00:08:32,725
- [Vi] Marcus! Marcus, wait up!

102
00:08:32,725 --> 00:08:34,101
- What do you want?

103
00:08:34,101 --> 00:08:35,769
- Don't be so upset, it's okay.

104
00:08:35,769 --> 00:08:37,938
- What the fuck are you
talking about? What's okay?

105
00:08:37,938 --> 00:08:39,940
- You know he hated my story also.

106
00:08:39,940 --> 00:08:42,651
- You story was terrible.

107
00:08:42,651 --> 00:08:45,154
- Marcus, you'll write
something better next time.

108
00:08:45,154 --> 00:08:46,488
- Patronizing fuck!

109
00:08:46,488 --> 00:08:48,449
If you had just been honest
with me in the first place,

110
00:08:48,449 --> 00:08:49,658
I wouldn't have read it.

111
00:08:49,658 --> 00:08:50,701
I knew it was shit,

112
00:08:50,701 --> 00:08:52,828
but like an idiot, I believed you.

113
00:08:52,828 --> 00:08:54,872
- That's not fair, I was honest.

114
00:08:54,872 --> 00:08:57,708
Just because I wasn't sucking
up like that bitch, Catherine!

115
00:08:57,708 --> 00:08:59,418
- Well, I sure didn't hear
you voice your opinion

116
00:08:59,418 --> 00:09:01,587
in there when it mattered!

117
00:09:01,587 --> 00:09:05,007
- I admit it, I was scared.

118
00:09:05,007 --> 00:09:06,967
I was shocked, in fact, by what he said.

119
00:09:06,967 --> 00:09:09,261
And he's so convincing.

120
00:09:10,179 --> 00:09:12,222
I'm sorry if I let you down, but really,

121
00:09:12,222 --> 00:09:14,892
I just still say he's just one opinion.

122
00:09:14,892 --> 00:09:16,435
I don't even like his books that much.

123
00:09:16,435 --> 00:09:19,605
They're all so aggressively
confrontational.

124
00:09:19,605 --> 00:09:22,483
I don't care if he's
won the Pulitzer Prize.

125
00:09:24,234 --> 00:09:27,571
(Marcus sniffles)

126
00:09:27,571 --> 00:09:29,907
- You just wanna fuck him,

127
00:09:29,907 --> 00:09:34,203
like Catherine and every
other white cunt on campus.

128
00:09:34,203 --> 00:09:37,206
(Marcus panting)

129
00:09:37,206 --> 00:09:39,458
(Vi sighs)

130
00:09:39,458 --> 00:09:43,545
- Marcus, you can't just
unilaterally decide to end things.

131
00:09:43,545 --> 00:09:46,423
This is a relationship we're
talking about, a friendship.

132
00:09:46,423 --> 00:09:47,257
You don't just-

133
00:09:48,801 --> 00:09:50,385
Fuck you! Fuck him!

134
00:09:52,513 --> 00:09:54,473
Fuck him! Fuck him! (sobs)

135
00:09:56,725 --> 00:09:58,644
- Vi, are you okay?

136
00:09:58,644 --> 00:10:03,524
- [Vi] Yes, I'm okay. I'm
totally okay. (sobbing)

137
00:10:14,993 --> 00:10:16,286
- You did the right thing.

138
00:10:18,038 --> 00:10:19,039
- I know that.

139
00:10:20,833 --> 00:10:22,251
Fucking cripple.

140
00:10:23,836 --> 00:10:26,088
Why do I waste my time with undergrads?

141
00:10:26,088 --> 00:10:30,425
They're all so juvenile!

142
00:10:31,885 --> 00:10:33,762
Ugh, I just thought
Marcus would be different.

143
00:10:33,762 --> 00:10:38,350
I mean, he's got CP. (sobbing)

144
00:10:43,147 --> 00:10:44,439
- What are you gonna do now?

145
00:10:47,109 --> 00:10:48,026
- I don't know.

146
00:10:48,026 --> 00:10:51,488
Go to the bar, get laid, whatever.

147
00:10:51,488 --> 00:10:53,574

00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,270
- Yeah. (chuckles)

182
00:12:46,270 --> 00:12:49,231
Um, then, are you alone?

183
00:12:51,650 --> 00:12:52,484
- Mm-hmm.

184
00:12:55,112 --> 00:12:56,071
- Can I join you?

185
00:13:00,158 --> 00:13:02,953
(Mr. Scott sighs)

186
00:13:06,456 --> 00:13:11,461
♪ Just let me kiss you
and allow me to feel you ♪

187
00:13:11,628 --> 00:13:12,713
- Gee, thanks.

188
00:13:14,881 --> 00:13:18,593
(soft gentle music)

189
00:13:18,593 --> 00:13:22,514
Well um, I just wanted to say

190
00:13:22,514 --> 00:13:24,933
that I'm, um, I'm really
happy with the class.

191
00:13:24,933 --> 00:13:25,767
And um.

192
00:13:27,769 --> 00:13:29,229
I know you must hear this all the time,

193
00:13:29,229 --> 00:13:31,440
but I'm also a great admirer of your work.

194
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,483
"A Sunday Lynching," especially

195
00:13:34,651 --> 00:13:38,905
really, um, spoke to me.

196
00:13:40,532 --> 00:13:42,367
God, I hope I'm not embarrassing you.

197
00:13:49,166 --> 00:13:50,250
- You're not.

198
00:13:52,419 --> 00:13:53,253
- Good.

199
00:13:54,212 --> 00:13:55,297
'Cause I, um,

200
00:13:56,923 --> 00:13:59,384
I really agreed with everything
you had to say last week

201
00:13:59,384 --> 00:14:01,178
about how bad my story was.

202
00:14:02,929 --> 00:14:03,764
- That's good.

203
00:14:04,598 --> 00:14:06,767
- And I also agreed
with what you said today

204
00:14:06,767 --> 00:14:08,727
about Marcus's story.

205
00:14:08,727 --> 00:14:09,936
It is a piece of shit.

206
00:14:17,027 --> 00:14:18,320
- You have beautiful skin.

207
00:14:20,781 --> 00:14:21,782
- Thank you.

208
00:14:22,699 --> 00:14:25,702
(soft gentle music)

209
00:14:29,039 --> 00:14:30,791
So Catherine seems like she might become

210
00:14:30,791 --> 00:14:32,000
a really good writer.

211
00:14:34,378 --> 00:14:39,174
- Maybe.

212
00:14:39,174 --> 00:14:39,966
She's okay.

213
00:14:44,721 --> 00:14:46,598
- Aren't you going out with Catherine?

214
00:14:49,184 --> 00:14:50,602
I'm sorry, it's none of my business.

215
00:14:50,602 --> 00:14:51,436
I didn't mean.

216
00:14:53,563 --> 00:14:55,315
- I'm not going out with Catherine.

217
00:14:58,443 --> 00:14:59,277
- Oh.

218
00:15:06,952 --> 00:15:09,204
Do you think I have potential as a writer?

219
00:15:15,043 --> 00:15:15,877
- No.

220
00:15:20,632 --> 00:15:22,300
- Thank you for being honest.

221
00:15:23,510 --> 00:15:28,515
(soft slow upbeat music)
(vocalist singing faintly)

222
00:15:34,938 --> 00:15:36,940
I have so much respect for you.

223
00:15:39,443 --> 00:15:41,069
(gentle upbeat music)

224
00:15:41,069 --> 00:15:44,322
(vocalist harmonizing)

225
00:16:07,804 --> 00:16:10,307
(door clicks)

226
00:16:15,729 --> 00:16:18,148
(door thuds)

227
00:16:25,780 --> 00:16:28,700
Can I just freshen up for a second?

228
00:16:31,745 --> 00:16:34,080
- It's over there.

229
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:34,915
- Thanks.

230
00:16:40,545 --> 00:16:43,465
(door thuds)

231
00:16:43,465 --> 00:16:46,468
(Vi exhales deeply)

232
00:16:56,937 --> 00:16:59,856
(items clattering)

233
00:17:39,771 --> 00:17:41,273
Don't be a racist.

234
00:17:43,275 --> 00:17:44,734
Don't be a racist.

235
00:17:44,734 --> 00:17:46,861
Don't be a racist. Don't be a racist.

236
00:17:46,861 --> 00:17:48,446
Don't be a racist. Don't be a racist.

237
00:17:48,446 --> 00:17:49,489
Don't be a racist.

238
00:17:49,489 --> 00:17:51,950
(door clicks)

239
00:17:59,249 --> 00:18:01,501
(Vi sighs)

240
00:18:02,544 --> 00:18:04,963
It's a really nice place that you have.

241
00:18:06,339 --> 00:18:11,344
Is the rent high? (chuckles)

242
00:18:12,137 --> 00:18:17,142
- Take off your top.

243
00:19:05,607 --> 00:19:07,442
Now take off the rest.

244
00:19:45,939 --> 00:19:48,608
(shoes clatter)

245
00:20:10,422 --> 00:20:11,256
Turn around.

246
00:20:14,676 --> 00:20:17,512
(Mr. Scott pants)

247
00:20:23,727 --> 00:20:26,896
(belt buckle rattles)

248
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,274
Bend over.

249
00:20:43,371 --> 00:20:45,373
(Mr. Scott grunts)

250
00:20:45,373 --> 00:20:48,376
(Mr. Scott panting)

251
00:20:54,799 --> 00:20:57,719
(Mr. Scott grunts)

252
00:20:59,012 --> 00:20:59,846
Say,

253
00:21:02,307 --> 00:21:03,475
Nigger, fuck me.

254
00:21:04,601 --> 00:21:08,188
- [Vi] Oh, but I-I can't say that.

255
00:21:08,188 --> 00:21:13,026
- Then say, (panting) Ni.

256
00:21:13,026 --> 00:21:13,860
- Ni.

257
00:21:14,903 --> 00:21:15,737
- Ger.

258
00:21:16,988 --> 00:21:17,822
- Ger.

259
00:21:19,115 --> 00:21:20,283
- Say, nigger.

260
00:21:21,117 --> 00:21:22,118
- Nigger.

261
00:21:22,118 --> 00:21:24,370
- Fuck me hard.

262
00:21:24,370 --> 00:21:26,581
- Fuck me hard!

263
00:21:26,581 --> 00:21:29,167
- Say, nigger, fuck me hard.

264
00:21:29,167 --> 00:21:31,085
- Nigger, fuck me hard.

265
00:21:33,671 --> 00:21:35,215
- [Mr. Scott] Again.

266
00:21:35,215 --> 00:21:37,258
- Nigger, fuck me hard!

267
00:21:37,258 --> 00:21:39,594
- Again.
- Nigger, fuck me hard.

268
00:21:39,594 --> 00:21:41,805
- Again.
- Nigger, fuck me hard.

269
00:21:41,805 --> 00:21:45,058
- (grunts) Again.
- Nigger, fuck me hard.

270
00:21:45,058 --> 00:21:47,560
- Again!
- Nigger, fuck me hard.

271
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,230
- Again!
- Nigger, fuck me hard!

272
00:21:51,397 --> 00:21:56,402
(solemn music)
(insects chirping)

273
00:22:09,749 --> 00:22:10,583
- Freak.

274
00:22:15,463 --> 00:22:18,466
(knuckles rapping)

275
00:22:20,468 --> 00:22:23,304
(Marcus sniffles)

276
00:22:26,683 --> 00:22:29,435
(Marcus panting)

277
00:22:36,818 --> 00:22:38,570
- Can, can I come in?

278
00:22:55,336 --> 00:22:57,505
(Vi sobs)

279
00:22:58,673 --> 00:23:01,968
- [Marcus] You're all sweaty.

280
00:23:05,555 --> 00:23:09,726
(Marcus exhales sharply)

281
00:23:09,726 --> 00:23:12,103
- "So John flipped her around,

282
00:23:12,103 --> 00:23:14,063
and slammed her against the wall.

283
00:23:16,566 --> 00:23:18,192
Jane braced herself.

284
00:23:19,444 --> 00:23:21,029
She thought about her mother.

285
00:23:21,946 --> 00:23:23,364
She thought about Peter.

286
00:23:24,782 --> 00:23:27,785
She thought about god, and rape.

287
00:23:29,037 --> 00:23:32,540
Say, fuck me, nigger, fuck me hard.

288
00:23:33,750 --> 00:23:36,294
John's flesh abraded her soft skin.

289
00:23:37,337 --> 00:23:39,255
There would be marks.

290
00:23:39,255 --> 00:23:44,010
She acquiesced and said
what he asked her to say,

291
00:23:44,010 --> 00:23:45,803
and did what he asked her to do.

292
00:23:47,931 --> 00:23:51,976
She had entered college
with hope, with dignity,

293
00:23:54,395 --> 00:23:56,564
but she would graduate as a whore."

294
00:24:07,408 --> 00:24:10,411
- Why do people have to be so ugly,

295
00:24:11,245 --> 00:24:12,914
write about such ugly characters?

296
00:24:12,914 --> 00:24:13,998
It's perverted.

297
00:24:15,124 --> 00:24:17,752
(sighs) I know you all
think that I'm being prissy,

298
00:24:17,752 --> 00:24:18,670
but I don't care.

299
00:24:18,670 --> 00:24:20,380
I was brought up in a certain way,

300
00:24:20,380 --> 00:24:25,385
and this is mean-spirited.

301
00:24:25,551 --> 00:24:26,386
- Yeah.

302
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,932
Well, I-it did seem

303
00:24:30,932 --> 00:24:33,685
a little affected.

304
00:24:34,852 --> 00:24:37,438
Like by using taboo language,

305
00:24:37,438 --> 00:24:39,148
you were trying to shock us

306
00:24:39,148 --> 00:24:41,317
about the hollowness of your characters.

307
00:24:43,277 --> 00:24:45,154
- I think it was a little bit racist.

308
00:24:47,448 --> 00:24:49,283
- It was completely racist.

309
00:24:49,283 --> 00:24:53,037
And beyond that, I felt
deeply offended as a woman.

310
00:24:53,037 --> 00:24:54,789
As if women could only operate

311
00:24:54,789 --> 00:24:56,958
from experiences of objectification.

312
00:24:56,958 --> 00:24:58,626
- Totally phallocentric.

313
00:24:58,626 --> 00:25:01,087
- And so weirdly misogynistic.

314
00:25:01,087 --> 00:25:04,340
I mean, why does Jane
go through with this?

315
00:25:04,340 --> 00:25:06,259
Is she stupid?

316
00:25:06,259 --> 00:25:09,137
- Hey, but wasn't this a rape?

317
00:25:10,096 --> 00:25:12,181
Or did I miss something?

318
00:25:12,181 --> 00:25:15,476
Because, I'm, I'm confused,
because if this was a rape,

319
00:25:15,476 --> 00:25:18,396
then why would she be a whore?

320
00:25:22,066 --> 00:25:25,278
- It was confessional, yet dishonest.

321
00:25:25,278 --> 00:25:28,197
Jane pretends to be
horrified by the sexuality

322
00:25:28,197 --> 00:25:30,742
that she in fact fetishizes.

323
00:25:30,742 --> 00:25:32,660
She subsumes herself to the myth

324
00:25:32,660 --> 00:25:35,329
of black male sexual potency,

325
00:25:35,329 --> 00:25:37,540
but then doesn't follow through.

326
00:25:37,540 --> 00:25:40,460
She thinks she respects Afro Americans,

327
00:25:40,460 --> 00:25:43,463
and thinks they're cool and exotic.

328
00:25:43,463 --> 00:25:45,673
What a notch he'd make in her belt.

329
00:25:45,673 --> 00:25:49,719
But of course, it all comes
down to Mandingo cliche,

330
00:25:49,719 --> 00:25:52,180
and he calls her on it.

331
00:25:52,180 --> 00:25:54,140
In classic racist tradition,

332
00:25:54,140 --> 00:25:56,601
she demonizes, then runs for cover.

333
00:25:57,477 --> 00:26:00,772
But then, how could she behave otherwise?

334
00:26:00,772 --> 00:26:03,691
She's just a spoiled, suburban white girl

335
00:26:03,691 --> 00:26:05,943
with a Benetton rainbow complex.

336
00:26:07,403 --> 00:26:09,947
It's just my opinion and what do I know,

337
00:26:11,616 --> 00:26:13,743
but I think it's a
callow piece of writing.

338
00:26:16,829 --> 00:26:19,040
- Callow and coy.

339
00:26:20,666 --> 00:26:24,378
Jane wants more, but isn't
honest enough to admit it.

340
00:26:24,378 --> 00:26:26,005
In the end she returns to the safety

341
00:26:26,005 --> 00:26:31,010
of her crippled, translation:
sexually impotent, boyfriend.

342
00:26:31,761 --> 00:26:33,638
- This is bullshit!

343
00:26:33,638 --> 00:26:35,640
Her story was the truth!

344
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:36,641
- Right.

345
00:26:36,641 --> 00:26:38,142
- It's unbelievable!

346
00:26:38,142 --> 00:26:39,143
- It's cliched!

347
00:26:39,143 --> 00:26:41,354
- It's disgusting!
- But it happened!

348
00:26:48,903 --> 00:26:51,614
- I don't know about what happened, Vi,

349
00:26:51,614 --> 00:26:55,118
because once you start writing,
it all becomes fiction.

350
00:26:56,202 --> 00:27:00,581
Still, it certainly is an
improvement over your last story.

351
00:27:01,791 --> 00:27:05,962
There is now at least
a beginning, a middle,

352
00:27:07,255 --> 00:27:08,089
and an end.

353
00:27:27,316 --> 00:27:29,193
- [Pam] "Toby, I just know

354
00:27:29,193 --> 00:27:31,070
you're going to become a movie star.

355
00:27:31,070 --> 00:27:33,531
Please don't forget me when
you make it to the top.

356
00:27:33,531 --> 00:27:36,492
I will always love you. Pam."

357
00:27:42,498 --> 00:27:44,917
(Toby sighs)

358
00:27:44,917 --> 00:27:46,711
(phone beeps)
(line tone ringing)

359
00:27:46,711 --> 00:27:49,380
(phone beeping)

360
00:27:53,843 --> 00:27:56,596
(phone line ringing)

361
00:27:56,596 --> 00:27:58,848
- Hello?
- Uh, hello.

362
00:27:58,848 --> 00:28:00,892
Um, is this Pam?

363
00:28:00,892 --> 00:28:03,477
- Who is this?
- Toby Oxman.

364
00:28:04,395 --> 00:28:07,899
- [Pam] Toby? Oh, hi, how are you?

365
00:28:07,899 --> 00:28:09,984
- Oh, I'm fine. How are you?

366
00:28:10,860 --> 00:28:12,612
- Great.
- Great!

367
00:28:14,238 --> 00:28:15,406
- [Pam] So what's going on?

368
00:28:15,406 --> 00:28:17,950
- Oh, that's what I
was just gonna ask you.

369
00:28:18,951 --> 00:28:20,411
- [Pam] But you called.

370
00:28:21,287 --> 00:28:23,247
- Oh, ah, yeah. Well, um.

371
00:28:25,666 --> 00:28:29,462
I- I was, I was just
calling because, uh, well,

372
00:28:30,588 --> 00:28:32,590
I was, I was wondering if
you still remembered me,

373
00:28:32,590 --> 00:28:35,551
which I guess you do. (chuckles)

374
00:28:35,551 --> 00:28:36,385
- [Pam] Yeah?

375
00:28:38,930 --> 00:28:40,556
- So look at where we are.

376
00:28:40,556 --> 00:28:44,185
The year 2000! Can you believe it?

377
00:28:44,185 --> 00:28:47,188
I mean, did you ever think
we would actually make it?

378
00:28:47,188 --> 00:28:48,898
- [Pam] Um, well, yeah.

379
00:28:51,234 --> 00:28:52,735
So are you still acting?

380
00:28:53,569 --> 00:28:56,989
- Uh, um, no. (chuckles)

381
00:28:56,989 --> 00:28:58,491
Not anymore.

382
00:28:58,491 --> 00:29:03,496
No, um, I kind of came
to terms with myself.

383
00:29:03,704 --> 00:29:05,539
I realized I had done what I had to do

384
00:29:05,539 --> 00:29:07,708
and uh, it was time to move on.

385
00:29:08,834 --> 00:29:12,588
- [Pam] Oh, so what did you do
after you gave up on acting?

386
00:29:12,588 --> 00:29:15,925
- Well, I went to law school,
if you can believe that.

387
00:29:16,968 --> 00:29:19,845
- I believe it,
- Yeah, well, it was really

388
00:29:19,845 --> 00:29:23,057
all kind of a joke and a
rip-off, the whole thing,

389
00:29:23,057 --> 00:29:24,225
so I dropped out.

390
00:29:25,059 --> 00:29:26,352
- Oh, that's too bad.

391
00:29:26,352 --> 00:29:28,604
- Yeah, well, but then it got me writing,

392
00:29:28,604 --> 00:29:30,606
so that was a good thing.

393
00:29:30,606 --> 00:29:33,109
- [Pam] Anything I might know about?

394
00:29:33,109 --> 00:29:35,653
- Well uh, I kinda let things go

395
00:29:35,653 --> 00:29:38,322
on this novel I'd been really into.

396
00:29:38,322 --> 00:29:40,032
(groans) I mean, the
whole publishing industry

397
00:29:40,032 --> 00:29:41,701
is totally corrupt.

398
00:29:41,701 --> 00:29:43,619
Really, it's finished.

399
00:29:43,619 --> 00:29:44,453
- [Pam] That's too bad.

400
00:29:44,453 --> 00:29:48,624
- Hmm, I worked over at a
homeless shelter for a while,

401
00:29:48,624 --> 00:29:51,669
drove a cab to pay the rent,
but I mean, that was, like,

402
00:29:52,545 --> 00:29:55,715
I mean, I have some dignity. (chuckles)

403
00:29:55,715 --> 00:29:56,549
- [Pam] That's good.

404
00:29:56,549 --> 00:29:58,009
So then what do you do now?

405
00:29:58,009 --> 00:30:00,052
- I'm a documentary filmmaker.

406
00:30:00,052 --> 00:30:01,512
- [Pam] Oh? Anything I might have seen?

407
00:30:01,512 --> 00:30:03,139
- Mm, not yet.

408
00:30:03,139 --> 00:30:07,476
I'm hoping to get a grant for
this one project on teenagers.

409
00:30:08,436 --> 00:30:10,730
(sighs) Geez, remember
when we were teenagers?

410
00:30:11,647 --> 00:30:13,983
- [Pam] Yeah, you didn't
wanna take me to the prom.

411
00:30:15,735 --> 00:30:17,695
- Oh, I-I don't remember that.

412
00:30:18,571 --> 00:30:19,405
- [Pam] I do.

413
00:30:21,198 --> 00:30:24,702
- Well, ugh, but it was so long ago.

414
00:30:24,702 --> 00:30:28,289
You know, we were so different
back then. (chuckles)

415
00:30:29,332 --> 00:30:31,792
Uh, well, anyway, um,

416
00:30:31,792 --> 00:30:35,212
I'm, so I'm looking for
subjects for this documentary

417
00:30:35,212 --> 00:30:38,424
on teenage-life in suburbia.

418
00:30:38,424 --> 00:30:40,509
It's kind of a, an exploration

419
00:30:40,509 --> 00:30:43,054
of the psyche, of its mythology.

420
00:30:43,054 --> 00:30:46,515
I wrote to Derrida to see if
he'd like to do the narration,

421
00:30:46,515 --> 00:30:49,518
but everything's still kind of
in development at this point.

422
00:30:50,978 --> 00:30:51,812
- [Pam] Huh.

423
00:30:53,272 --> 00:30:55,024
- I work in a shoe store right now.

424
00:30:56,067 --> 00:30:58,903
Uh, but it's cool, I'm, I'm not ashamed.

425
00:30:58,903 --> 00:30:59,987
I mean, I-I, really,

426
00:30:59,987 --> 00:31:03,074
I have a much stronger sense of self now.

427
00:31:03,074 --> 00:31:05,242
And uh, anyway, it's
really very temporary.

428
00:31:06,410 --> 00:31:08,162
- That's good.
- Yeah.

429
00:31:08,162 --> 00:31:11,874
Um, so anyway, tell me, what about you?

430
00:31:11,874 --> 00:31:13,209
Uh, I'd heard through the grapevine

431
00:31:13,209 --> 00:31:15,544
that you were producing movies.

432
00:31:15,544 --> 00:31:17,046
- [Pam] Yeah, but not anymore.

433
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,176
- Oh. Tired of life in
the fast lane? (chuckles)

434
00:31:23,469 --> 00:31:24,303
Yeah.

435
00:31:26,639 --> 00:31:31,644
So, you're, um, married?

436
00:31:31,936 --> 00:31:32,895
- Yeah.
- Huh.

437
00:31:34,105 --> 00:31:35,898
- Kids?
- Yeah.

438
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,110
- How many?
- Three.

439
00:31:40,277 --> 00:31:41,112
- Great.

440
00:31:42,321 --> 00:31:43,364
Ah, how old are they?

441
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,699
- [Pam] Eight, six, and four.

442
00:31:46,992 --> 00:31:48,702
- Wow, that really is great.

443
00:31:50,371 --> 00:31:52,123
Hm, in a few years, who knows,

444
00:31:52,123 --> 00:31:56,335
maybe they'll wanna be in
my documentary, (chuckles)

445
00:31:56,335 --> 00:31:58,254
- [Pam] Listen, Toby, I
can't really talk right now.

446
00:31:58,254 --> 00:31:59,922
Do you mind if I call you back?

447
00:31:59,922 --> 00:32:00,965
- Yeah, sure.

448
00:32:00,965 --> 00:32:02,967
- Okay, bye,
- Okay, bye,

449
00:32:04,552 --> 00:32:07,012
(phone beeps)

450
00:32:10,558 --> 00:32:14,895
Maybe she has caller ID.

451
00:32:14,895 --> 00:32:17,273
(gentle upbeat music)

452
00:32:17,273 --> 00:32:19,275
- [Mr. DeMarco] Do you have any hobbies?

453
00:32:21,277 --> 00:32:22,736
- No, not really,

454
00:32:23,654 --> 00:32:26,073
- [Mr. DeMarco] Any books
you like to read for fun?

455
00:32:27,616 --> 00:32:28,451
- No.

456
00:32:33,205 --> 00:32:34,832
(Mr. DeMarco sighs)

457
00:32:34,832 --> 00:32:36,667
- How about those underground comics?

458
00:32:38,752 --> 00:32:39,712
- I hate reading.

459
00:32:45,050 --> 00:32:47,887
- All right, Scooby, let's
not beat around the bush.

460
00:32:47,887 --> 00:32:50,347
With your attitude, you
not gonna get in anywhere.

461
00:32:52,516 --> 00:32:53,350
- Okay.

462
00:32:54,894 --> 00:32:59,565
- "Okay." So you just don't care?

463
00:33:04,820 --> 00:33:05,988
I- I-let me ask you something,

464
00:33:05,988 --> 00:33:08,365
not as your guidance
counselor, but as a friend.

465
00:33:09,658 --> 00:33:11,452
What do you wanna do with your life?

466
00:33:12,286 --> 00:33:14,121
I mean, what, what kinda long-term goals

467
00:33:14,121 --> 00:33:15,456
can you possibly have?

468
00:33:18,167 --> 00:33:19,752
- I don't know.

469
00:33:19,752 --> 00:33:21,712
- Come on, you can talk to me.

470
00:33:21,712 --> 00:33:23,172
Tell me what you're thinking.

471
00:33:25,633 --> 00:33:30,095
- Well, I mean, I wanna be on TV.

472
00:33:32,890 --> 00:33:34,975
Maybe have a talk show or something,

473
00:33:35,893 --> 00:33:38,896
like Conan or early Letterman.

474
00:33:38,896 --> 00:33:39,772
- Ah-ha!

475
00:33:39,772 --> 00:33:42,483
And how is it you hope
to achieve this goal?

476
00:33:45,277 --> 00:33:47,571
- I don't know. See if
I have any connections?

477
00:33:50,574 --> 00:33:53,327

00:34:14,390 --> 00:34:18,352
- Yes, but he just shouted
at me and used the F word.

485
00:34:18,352 --> 00:34:19,937
- Scooby, dinner!

486
00:34:22,523 --> 00:34:23,774
- Would anyone be interested

487
00:34:23,774 --> 00:34:25,859
in being hypnotized after dinner?

488
00:34:25,859 --> 00:34:27,987
- [Marty, Fern And Brady] No.

489
00:34:27,987 --> 00:34:30,573
(upbeat music)

490
00:34:36,620 --> 00:34:37,580
- Let's just start.

491
00:34:39,832 --> 00:34:42,459
- I don't know what's wrong with that kid.

492
00:34:42,459 --> 00:34:44,503
- Maybe he's gay.
- Don't ever say that.

493
00:34:45,462 --> 00:34:47,506
- What if he is?
- He isn't.

494
00:34:47,506 --> 00:34:49,174
- Marty, ignore him.

495
00:34:51,051 --> 00:34:52,011
- He's vegetarian,

496
00:34:52,011 --> 00:34:53,762
doesn't do sports-
- Brady!

497
00:34:54,972 --> 00:34:56,432
- And even if he is.

498
00:34:56,432 --> 00:34:58,851
- Gay people are people too, you know?

499
00:34:58,851 --> 00:35:00,686
You're just being prejudiced.

500
00:35:00,686 --> 00:35:02,605
- I don't care if he's gay.

501
00:35:02,605 --> 00:35:03,731
I'm cool, I mean, it's not

502
00:35:03,731 --> 00:35:05,149
like I have to share his room or anything.

503
00:35:05,149 --> 00:35:06,775
- I just wanna know what
the hell he does in his room

504
00:35:06,775 --> 00:35:09,194
that's so interesting he
doesn't come down for dinner.

505
00:35:09,194 --> 00:35:11,989
- Maybe he's building a bomb, just like-

506
00:35:11,989 --> 00:35:13,991
- Don't even joke about that.

507
00:35:13,991 --> 00:35:15,409
- I'm serious.

508
00:35:15,409 --> 00:35:18,203
What happens if he blows up the school?

509
00:35:18,203 --> 00:35:19,371
(items crashing)
- Fuck!

510
00:35:19,371 --> 00:35:20,205
- That's it, I'm going in there.

511
00:35:20,205 --> 00:35:22,750
- [Scooby] Was anyone in my room today?

512
00:35:22,750 --> 00:35:24,501
- Is everything okay?

513
00:35:24,501 --> 00:35:27,588
(footsteps thudding)

514
00:35:30,591 --> 00:35:32,926
- My CD case like totally collapsed.

515
00:35:34,303 --> 00:35:36,180
Gonna have to re-catalog all weekend.

516
00:35:40,893 --> 00:35:42,936
(sighs) Hey, can you pass the salad over?

517
00:35:43,812 --> 00:35:45,314
- Steak's really good tonight.

518
00:35:46,398 --> 00:35:47,858
- Good.

519
00:35:47,858 --> 00:35:49,526
- Do you have a lot of homework?

520
00:35:49,526 --> 00:35:51,028
- I don't know.

521
00:35:51,028 --> 00:35:51,862
- What do you mean, you don't know?

522
00:35:51,862 --> 00:35:52,905
You either got a lot or you don't.

523
00:35:52,905 --> 00:35:53,739
What's not to know?

524
00:35:53,739 --> 00:35:55,324
- Marty.

525
00:35:55,324 --> 00:35:57,951
- You started filling out
your college applications yet?

526
00:35:59,495 --> 00:36:01,330
- I'm not going to college.

527
00:36:05,501 --> 00:36:07,753
- What are you gonna do?

528
00:36:07,753 --> 00:36:09,004
- I don't know.

529
00:36:10,881 --> 00:36:13,133
(cutlery clatters)
- What do you know?

530
00:36:13,133 --> 00:36:16,720
- Dad, I'm trying to figure
things out right now, okay?

531
00:36:18,555 --> 00:36:21,767
It's like, really hard

532
00:36:21,767 --> 00:36:24,728
and I'm just listening to
some old Elton John, and-

533
00:36:24,728 --> 00:36:26,689
- Gay.
- Out.

534
00:36:26,689 --> 00:36:28,232
- What?
- Leave the table.

535
00:36:28,232 --> 00:36:29,441
- What?

536
00:36:29,441 --> 00:36:30,984
Leave the table!

537
00:36:32,528 --> 00:36:34,947
- Man, I'm outta here.
This family is so fucked!

538
00:36:40,619 --> 00:36:43,455
- Mom, it's not fair if
Brady can say the F word

539
00:36:43,455 --> 00:36:44,748
and I can't.

540
00:36:44,748 --> 00:36:48,335
- Yeah well, Mikey, listen
up, 'cause here's a lesson.

541
00:36:48,335 --> 00:36:50,337
Life's not fair.

(Consuelo groaning)

00:37:28,250 --> 00:37:30,711

(Consuelo grunting)

555
00:37:42,723 --> 00:37:43,766
Consuelo?

556
00:37:46,059 --> 00:37:47,352
- Yes, Mikey?

557
00:37:49,438 --> 00:37:51,815
- Do you have any brothers or sisters?

558
00:37:53,692 --> 00:37:55,277
- Yes.

559
00:37:55,277 --> 00:37:57,988
- Really? How many?

560
00:38:00,073 --> 00:38:04,870
- Four brothers and five sisters.

561
00:38:04,870 --> 00:38:05,704
- Wow.

562
00:38:06,705 --> 00:38:09,041
But why did your parents
have so many children?

563
00:38:10,042 --> 00:38:13,253
I mean, if they were poor,
wouldn't it be better

564
00:38:13,253 --> 00:38:14,630
to just have one or two?

565
00:38:16,089 --> 00:38:19,009
- (sighs) It was God's will.

566
00:38:20,594 --> 00:38:22,346
- But do you really believe in God?

567
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,017
In heaven, hell, and angels
and all that kind of stuff?

568
00:38:30,771 --> 00:38:31,605
- No.

569
00:38:35,567 --> 00:38:38,487
(cutlery clacking)

570
00:39:00,717 --> 00:39:04,137
- So how was school today?

571
00:39:05,931 --> 00:39:07,140
- The same.

572
00:39:07,140 --> 00:39:10,477
- Same. Same as what?

573
00:39:11,937 --> 00:39:13,105
- Just the same.

574
00:39:21,321 --> 00:39:23,907
- We're studying the
Holocaust in social studies.

575
00:39:23,907 --> 00:39:25,075
- Oh, yeah?

576
00:39:25,075 --> 00:39:27,452
- We did the same thing last year also.

577
00:39:29,621 --> 00:39:31,248
- How is the class?

578
00:39:31,248 --> 00:39:33,417
- I'm supposed to watch
"Schindler's List" for homework.

579
00:39:33,417 --> 00:39:35,544
The movie's like almost four hours.

580
00:39:35,544 --> 00:39:37,462
Then I'm supposed to write
a report on survivors.

581
00:39:37,462 --> 00:39:38,881
You know any survivors, Dad?

582
00:39:39,965 --> 00:39:44,303
- Hmm, well. Do I know any?

583
00:39:46,013 --> 00:39:46,847
Personally?

584
00:39:48,015 --> 00:39:51,184
- Well, technically,
your Zeda is a survivor.

585
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,105
- He was in a concentration camp?

586
00:39:55,105 --> 00:39:57,774
- Well, no, but he had
to escape the Nazis.

587
00:40:00,652 --> 00:40:02,779
- But I thought he came over
to America before the war?

588
00:40:02,779 --> 00:40:04,865
- Well, he did, with his family,

589
00:40:04,865 --> 00:40:09,077
but his cousins, they had to
stay and they were all killed,

590
00:40:09,077 --> 00:40:11,955
and if he'd stayed, he
would've been killed.

591
00:40:11,955 --> 00:40:14,666
So in my book, he's a survivor.

592
00:40:15,834 --> 00:40:18,420
- Even though it was only
his cousins that were killed?

593
00:40:18,420 --> 00:40:20,672
- (sighs) But that
could've happened to him,

594
00:40:20,672 --> 00:40:23,800
or, or to me, if I'd been alive, or you.

595
00:40:25,010 --> 00:40:25,844
- Or me?

596
00:40:29,306 --> 00:40:31,183
- You mean, then we're all survivors?

597
00:40:32,267 --> 00:40:33,185
- Well, yes.

598
00:40:34,186 --> 00:40:35,896
If it hadn't been for Hitler,

599
00:40:35,896 --> 00:40:38,941
he wouldn't have had to leave Europe.

600
00:40:39,816 --> 00:40:41,860
We would've been European.

601
00:40:45,113 --> 00:40:48,200
- But then, in a sense,

602
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,993
since you would've never have met Dad

603
00:40:49,993 --> 00:40:51,787
if your family had stayed in Europe,

604
00:40:52,788 --> 00:40:55,457
if it weren't for Hitler none
of us would've been born.

605
00:40:59,836 --> 00:41:01,171
- Get the hell outta here!

606
00:41:02,547 --> 00:41:07,427
- Man! It's just, like, conversation.

607
00:41:07,427 --> 00:41:10,472
(chair rasping)

608
00:41:10,472 --> 00:41:13,767
- Tell me, you make a living at this?

609
00:41:16,395 --> 00:41:20,732
- Well, sir, uh, I'm actually
not doing this for the money.

610
00:41:22,234 --> 00:41:25,612
When you make a documentary,
uh, you do it for many reasons,

611
00:41:25,612 --> 00:41:27,823
but money is certainly not one of them.

612
00:41:30,325 --> 00:41:31,201
- I don't get it.

613
00:41:34,830 --> 00:41:37,749
- Well, sir, uh, (sighs)

614
00:41:38,667 --> 00:41:41,336
A lot has happened to the landscape

615
00:41:41,336 --> 00:41:44,089
of the suburban high school
since I was a student.

616
00:41:44,089 --> 00:41:47,634
And I feel it would be a valuable,

617
00:41:47,634 --> 00:41:50,387
perhaps even enlightening endeavor,

618
00:41:50,387 --> 00:41:53,348
to chronicle the changes,

619
00:41:53,348 --> 00:41:56,935
to get intimate with the realities

620
00:41:56,935 --> 00:42:00,480
kids and parents face in
American schools today.

621
00:42:02,482 --> 00:42:04,317
- Yeah, well, whatever.

622
00:42:05,861 --> 00:42:07,738
I'll let you know if there's interest.

623
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,908
(phone ringing)

624
00:42:14,870 --> 00:42:16,580
- Excuse me, where's the bathroom?

625
00:42:17,456 --> 00:42:20,876
(door clicks and creaks)

626
00:42:28,508 --> 00:42:33,513
(Toby sighs)
(urine trickles)

627
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,808
(Toby exhales sharply)

628
00:42:47,778 --> 00:42:48,653
- You a pervert?

629
00:42:49,571 --> 00:42:52,949
- No. Uh. (chuckles)

630
00:42:54,576 --> 00:42:56,912
(Toby groans)

631
00:42:56,912 --> 00:43:01,374
Uh, actually, I'm a, I'm
a documentary filmmaker.

632
00:43:03,085 --> 00:43:06,797
- Oh. You mean like "Blair Witch Project"?

633
00:43:08,632 --> 00:43:13,595
- Uh, well, no. Um. (chuckles)

634
00:43:13,762 --> 00:43:17,390
Uh, I'm doing one on high
school students, in fact.

635
00:43:18,642 --> 00:43:19,476
- What for?

636
00:43:21,603 --> 00:43:24,189
- Well, it's kind of, um.

637
00:43:24,189 --> 00:43:26,108
(hand bangs)

638
00:43:26,108 --> 00:43:27,317
(Toby clicks tongue)

639
00:43:27,317 --> 00:43:28,860
It's kind of a sociological study

640
00:43:28,860 --> 00:43:30,487
on the aftermath of Columbine.

641
00:43:33,615 --> 00:43:35,867
- Is this, like, to get into Sundance?

642
00:43:35,867 --> 00:43:38,662
- Yeah, well, it's possible
they would be interested in it.

643
00:43:38,662 --> 00:43:39,496
Yeah.

644
00:43:40,747 --> 00:43:41,581
- Doubt it.

645
00:43:43,792 --> 00:43:44,960
- Actually, there is some interest

646
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,253
from the Sundance Channel.

647
00:43:50,006 --> 00:43:50,841
- Whoopee.

648
00:43:53,093 --> 00:43:56,179
- HBO and MTV have also
shown some interest. So.

649
00:44:02,602 --> 00:44:03,895
- So you have connections?

650
00:44:06,481 --> 00:44:07,774
(insects chirping)

651
00:44:07,774 --> 00:44:12,237
- You see, we're trying to do
a film on suburban lifestyles.

652
00:44:12,237 --> 00:44:15,240
Eh, kind of an "American
Family" for the new millennium.

653
00:44:15,240 --> 00:44:18,451
- I thought this was about
kids getting into college?

654
00:44:18,451 --> 00:44:20,495
- Oh, uh, it is. I mean, um.

655
00:44:20,495 --> 00:44:22,998
- Which is it? You got to
keep your focus straight.

656
00:44:22,998 --> 00:44:25,709
- Uh, (chuckles) yeah, uh, yeah, well,

657
00:44:25,709 --> 00:44:27,794
you're, you're absolutely right, um.

658
00:44:28,962 --> 00:44:32,799
The, the focus is on the college
admissions process today.

659
00:44:32,799 --> 00:44:34,843
- And you want Scooby to
be the focus of all this?

660
00:44:34,843 --> 00:44:36,428
- Yeah, Scooby and a few other students

661
00:44:36,428 --> 00:44:39,306
of different socioeconomic backgrounds.

662
00:44:39,306 --> 00:44:41,266
- You didn't mention any
other students before.

663
00:44:41,266 --> 00:44:42,809
- Oh well, I-I don't
have any yet, but uh-

664
00:44:42,809 --> 00:44:45,312
- Either Scooby is the focus or forget it.

665
00:44:45,312 --> 00:44:47,981
- Yeah, I thought I was the focus.

666
00:44:49,357 --> 00:44:50,901
- I wanna be the focus.

667
00:44:50,901 --> 00:44:52,027
(hand slaps)
(Mikey exclaims)

668
00:44:52,027 --> 00:44:53,236
- Eh!
- Toby, (sighs)

669
00:44:53,236 --> 00:44:55,697
We need this to be a positive experience.

670
00:44:57,324 --> 00:45:01,578
- Yeah, um, well, I suppose
I could, I could reconceive.

671
00:45:01,578 --> 00:45:02,454
- Reconceive.

672
00:45:02,454 --> 00:45:05,290
- 'Cause Scooby does have a quality

673
00:45:05,290 --> 00:45:06,124
that I've been looking for.

674
00:45:06,124 --> 00:45:10,462
He had a quality that is
emblematic of America today.

675
00:45:10,462 --> 00:45:14,090
It's part disillusionment, part hope,

676
00:45:14,090 --> 00:45:15,842
- Twinkies!

677
00:45:15,842 --> 00:45:18,595
- Boys, take napkins. Napkins.

678
00:45:21,306 --> 00:45:24,059
- (clears throat) Not to be crass,

679
00:45:24,059 --> 00:45:27,646
but what do we get out of this?

680
00:45:27,646 --> 00:45:30,065
- (laughs) Don't worry,
he, he doesn't mean money.

681
00:45:30,065 --> 00:45:32,984
- Oh, I know. (chuckles) I know that.

682
00:45:32,984 --> 00:45:37,989
Um, well, sharing your story,

683
00:45:38,281 --> 00:45:40,575
your, your ups and downs and so forth,

684
00:45:40,575 --> 00:45:43,578
can, I hope, be an
illuminating experience.

685
00:45:44,746 --> 00:45:48,416
- Yeah. How do we know
we won't be exploited?

686
00:45:49,251 --> 00:45:51,586
- No, it, it's true.

687
00:45:51,586 --> 00:45:54,923
- Yeah, Mr. Livingston, I fully understand

688
00:45:54,923 --> 00:45:57,550
and I share your concerns.

689
00:45:58,718 --> 00:45:59,803
You feel vulnerable.

690
00:46:01,513 --> 00:46:03,932
And I know that this is a
very difficult question,

691
00:46:03,932 --> 00:46:06,935
but what it comes down to is,

692
00:46:08,186 --> 00:46:10,063
can you make the leap of faith in me,

693
00:46:11,606 --> 00:46:12,774
in the same way that I have to make

694
00:46:12,774 --> 00:46:13,984
the leap of faith in you?

695
00:46:18,321 --> 00:46:20,073
- This is a great school.

696
00:46:20,073 --> 00:46:22,158
I don't care what anybody says.

697
00:46:22,158 --> 00:46:24,077
I mean, it's not perfect,

698
00:46:24,077 --> 00:46:26,079
but like the people are really cool,

699
00:46:26,079 --> 00:46:29,708
like the teachers and kids,
they really care and all.

700
00:46:29,708 --> 00:46:33,336
And I know, they, they make
fun of New Jersey all the time,

701
00:46:33,336 --> 00:46:35,463
but I don't care, 'cause
they're just snobs.

702
00:46:35,463 --> 00:46:37,382
'Cause Jersey is where America's at!

703
00:46:37,382 --> 00:46:41,052
(team yelling and cheering)

704
00:46:43,596 --> 00:46:46,349
- [Toby] Walking down these hallways,

705
00:46:46,349 --> 00:46:49,352
hallways just like the
ones I once walked down

706
00:46:49,352 --> 00:46:52,981
as a teenager, I couldn't
help thinking back

707
00:46:52,981 --> 00:46:57,610
to a time when every
day I woke up depressed,

708
00:46:57,610 --> 00:47:01,823
suicidal, consumed by despair.

709
00:47:03,074 --> 00:47:04,993
Had things changed?

710
00:47:04,993 --> 00:47:08,413
Was the competition to get into
the most prestigious schools

711
00:47:08,413 --> 00:47:10,790
still a requisite rite of passage?

712
00:47:12,167 --> 00:47:15,920
Beneath these masks of
courtesy and friendliness,

713
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,007
I knew that there were
darker forces at work.

714
00:47:20,300 --> 00:47:25,305
And I knew that Scooby was the
key to revealing the truth.

715
00:47:27,766 --> 00:47:30,393
Scooby, Scooby, Scooby.

716
00:47:31,436 --> 00:47:33,021
What are you thinking?

717
00:47:33,980 --> 00:47:38,193
College, SATs, your parents,

718
00:47:38,193 --> 00:47:40,653
your brothers, your friends.

719
00:47:41,529 --> 00:47:44,657
How is it you deal with all this stress?

720
00:47:45,992 --> 00:47:47,994
- The pressure to get into the college

721
00:47:47,994 --> 00:47:50,288
of your choice is incredible.

722
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,125
You know, they did a study recently

723
00:47:54,125 --> 00:47:57,170
of the youth in Bosnia during the bombing,

724
00:47:57,170 --> 00:47:58,880
and they found that the stress

725
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,007
the young people experience there

726
00:48:01,007 --> 00:48:04,469
was less than what American
high school students go through

727
00:48:04,469 --> 00:48:06,054
when applying to college.

728
00:48:07,889 --> 00:48:09,682
- [Toby] Is that right?

729
00:48:09,682 --> 00:48:10,809
- Yeah,
- My God.

730
00:48:16,648 --> 00:48:19,859
(editor sighs)

731
00:48:19,859 --> 00:48:21,027
So what do you think?

732
00:48:24,322 --> 00:48:27,325
- Well, I'm not really sure
what you're trying to say.

733
00:48:28,618 --> 00:48:30,578
It's funny, I suppose.

734
00:48:30,578 --> 00:48:32,247
(Toby sighs)
But it seems glib and facile

735
00:48:32,247 --> 00:48:34,457
to make fun of how
idiotic these people are.

736
00:48:34,457 --> 00:48:37,168
- I'm not making fun.

737
00:48:37,168 --> 00:48:40,463
Ah, I'm showing it as it really is.

738
00:48:40,463 --> 00:48:43,174
- You're showing how superior
you are to your subject.

739
00:48:43,174 --> 00:48:46,761
- No, but I-I like my
subject. I like these people.

740
00:48:46,761 --> 00:48:49,764
- No, you don't,
- Yes, I do! I love them!

741
00:48:57,730 --> 00:48:59,357
- The camerawork's nice.

742
00:48:59,357 --> 00:49:00,191
- Thanks.

743
00:49:01,067 --> 00:49:02,152
I'll tell Mike.

744
00:49:06,197 --> 00:49:08,324
Well. Uh,
- No.

745
00:49:08,324 --> 00:49:09,951
- It's still just the beginning.

746
00:49:11,411 --> 00:49:14,873
Oh, I know I can dig deeper.

747
00:49:19,002 --> 00:49:21,713
(bright sanguine music)

748
00:49:21,713 --> 00:49:24,799
- But Marj. May I call you Marj?

749
00:49:24,799 --> 00:49:27,343
What it really boils down to is,

750
00:49:27,343 --> 00:49:28,803
what does it mean to be a Jew?

751
00:49:28,803 --> 00:49:31,306
Exactly, Tzedakah, charity.

752
00:49:31,306 --> 00:49:33,558
And the new wing at Beth Israel is real.

753
00:49:35,185 --> 00:49:38,354
Well, actually, last year you gave $500.

754
00:49:38,354 --> 00:49:41,024
But this year, $1,000 would
not only be a mitzvah,

755
00:49:41,024 --> 00:49:42,734
it would bring you to a new level.

756
00:49:44,444 --> 00:49:46,779
Yes, of course, your
gift would also give you

757
00:49:46,779 --> 00:49:48,573
a Chagall menorah and two tickets

758
00:49:48,573 --> 00:49:50,158
to the dinner dance this spring.

759
00:49:51,451 --> 00:49:53,953
Because it's true.

760
00:49:53,953 --> 00:49:56,247
Israel needs us now.

761
00:49:56,247 --> 00:49:57,790
(Consuelo groans)
If not now, when?

762
00:49:57,790 --> 00:50:01,211
(Consuelo panting)

763
00:50:01,211 --> 00:50:02,545
That's wonderful.

764
00:50:02,545 --> 00:50:04,756
I- I'll speak to you next week.

765
00:50:04,756 --> 00:50:06,925
You too. Take care.

766
00:50:06,925 --> 00:50:09,594
(Consuelo exhaling sharply)
(door clatters)

767
00:50:09,594 --> 00:50:10,595
Hi, Scooby.

768
00:50:11,471 --> 00:50:12,889
Scooby. Scooby?

769
00:50:14,557 --> 00:50:16,392
How was school today?

770
00:50:16,392 --> 00:50:17,602
- Fine.

771
00:50:17,602 --> 00:50:19,354
- Ready for tomorrow?

772
00:50:19,354 --> 00:50:21,064
- What's tomorrow?

773
00:50:21,064 --> 00:50:23,566
- The SATs, knucklehead. (chuckles)

774
00:50:23,566 --> 00:50:24,651
- I'm not taking them.

775
00:50:28,029 --> 00:50:33,034
(cutlery clacking)
(Marty sighs)

776
00:50:42,877 --> 00:50:43,836
- Just back!

777
00:50:46,839 --> 00:50:50,009
(Marty clears throat)

778
00:50:53,429 --> 00:50:54,430
- [Mikey] Mom?

779
00:50:54,430 --> 00:50:55,431
- [Fern] Yes, Mikey?

780
00:50:56,307 --> 00:50:59,435
- I was looking through one
of Scooby's SAT practice books

781
00:50:59,435 --> 00:51:02,230
this afternoon and I took
one of the practice tests.

782
00:51:02,230 --> 00:51:03,982
Guess what score I got?

783
00:51:03,982 --> 00:51:04,816
- [Fern] What?

784
00:51:06,734 --> 00:51:10,863
- 550 verbal, 520 math, and
I'm only in fifth grade.

785
00:51:16,244 --> 00:51:17,287
(knuckles rapping)

786
00:51:17,287 --> 00:51:18,121
- [Marty] Scooby?

787
00:51:19,581 --> 00:51:20,415
- Yeah?

788
00:51:23,835 --> 00:51:24,919
- We have to talk.

789
00:51:25,962 --> 00:51:27,380
- What do you wanna talk about?

790
00:51:27,380 --> 00:51:28,548
- Don't screw around with me,

791
00:51:28,548 --> 00:51:30,758
you know what I'm talking about.

792
00:51:30,758 --> 00:51:32,010
You're taking those SATs.

793
00:51:33,136 --> 00:51:36,055
You're taking those SATs or
your CD collection's history.

794
00:51:36,055 --> 00:51:38,558
You're taking those SATs
and you're going to college.

795
00:51:38,558 --> 00:51:39,892
You're taking those SATs

796
00:51:39,892 --> 00:51:41,769
if I have to strap your ass to a chair,

797
00:51:41,769 --> 00:51:43,605
but buddy, you are taking 'em!

798
00:51:45,315 --> 00:51:46,274
- Okay.

799
00:51:47,275 --> 00:51:49,819
- Hm! I'm tired of this shit.

800
00:51:51,654 --> 00:51:54,073
(door thuds)

801
00:52:27,023 --> 00:52:27,899
- [Toby] So were you surprised

802
00:52:27,899 --> 00:52:30,318
that, uh, Scooby took the SATs after all?

803
00:52:31,778 --> 00:52:33,821
- [Brady] Not really. He's kind of a wuss.

804
00:52:35,573 --> 00:52:37,700
- [Toby] Okay, uh, how about you, Cheryl?

805
00:52:37,700 --> 00:52:39,577
Were, uh, were you surprised?

806
00:52:39,577 --> 00:52:41,621
- I don't know. Whatever,

807
00:52:43,289 --> 00:52:44,415
(Toby chuckles)

808
00:52:44,415 --> 00:52:46,376
- Hey, how come you
drive such a shitty car?

809
00:52:46,376 --> 00:52:49,003
- Yeah.
(Toby chuckles)

810
00:52:49,003 --> 00:52:49,837
- I don't know.
(Cheryl laughs)

811
00:52:49,837 --> 00:52:51,464
Uh, that's interesting though.

812
00:52:51,464 --> 00:52:53,549
A cool car, is that, is that something

813
00:52:53,549 --> 00:52:55,927
that's real important to you, Brady?

814
00:52:55,927 --> 00:52:56,761
- Yeah.
- A cool car?

815
00:52:56,761 --> 00:52:57,595
Yeah?
- Duh.

816
00:52:59,514 --> 00:53:01,933
- [Scooby] Pretty cool, Stanley.

817
00:53:01,933 --> 00:53:02,767
- Thanks.

818
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,270
- How'd you get it?

819
00:53:06,270 --> 00:53:07,105
- It's, it's my dad's.

820
00:53:07,105 --> 00:53:10,024
He hides it under some old
"TV Guides" in his closet.

821
00:53:11,567 --> 00:53:13,903
- Gee, your dad's smart.

822
00:53:13,903 --> 00:53:14,737
- Yeah, I know.

823
00:53:16,364 --> 00:53:17,198
- Is it loaded?

824
00:53:18,533 --> 00:53:19,951
- No, I don't think so.

825
00:53:22,328 --> 00:53:24,372
Scooby, don't! Be careful!

826
00:53:24,372 --> 00:53:26,958
- I'm not an idiot, man. I watch TV.

827
00:53:29,836 --> 00:53:31,254
- I-I know. I-I'm sorry.

828
00:53:31,254 --> 00:53:33,673
I'm just a little nervous.

829
00:53:33,673 --> 00:53:34,549
I don't know why.

830
00:53:36,050 --> 00:53:39,303
- You should be.
(Stanley gasping)

831
00:53:43,391 --> 00:53:45,226
Here. You can keep it.

832
00:54:11,627 --> 00:54:13,212
- Scooby?

833
00:54:13,212 --> 00:54:14,046
- Yeah?

834
00:54:15,882 --> 00:54:18,009
- You know. (sighs)

835
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,471
I- I like you.

836
00:54:21,471 --> 00:54:22,764
- Yeah, I know.

837
00:54:24,557 --> 00:54:26,309
- [Stanley] I mean.

838
00:54:26,309 --> 00:54:29,479
- I know. Everyone knows.

839
00:54:31,731 --> 00:54:32,565
- Oh.

840
00:54:36,110 --> 00:54:39,530
Um. Do you think?

841
00:54:39,530 --> 00:54:42,116
Do you think that you'd let me, um.

842
00:54:46,662 --> 00:54:47,497
- Okay.

843
00:54:49,749 --> 00:54:50,750
If you feel like it.

844
00:54:52,043 --> 00:54:52,877
Just gimme a sec.

845
00:55:00,343 --> 00:55:02,678
You want some?
- No, thanks.

846
00:55:17,610 --> 00:55:20,029

I should never have
made you take the SATs.

Scooby, I'll never do it again!

863
00:56:11,581 --> 00:56:12,999
- Hey, Scooby.
- Made you take the SATs!

864
00:56:12,999 --> 00:56:14,250
- [Conan] How's it going?

865
00:56:15,251 --> 00:56:18,379
- Conan O'Brien? Whoa.

866
00:56:18,379 --> 00:56:20,047
What are you doing here?

867
00:56:20,047 --> 00:56:22,383
- I'm looking for a
last-minute guest for my show.

868
00:56:22,383 --> 00:56:24,218
Any suggestions?

869
00:56:24,218 --> 00:56:25,511
- I'll be your guest.

870
00:56:25,511 --> 00:56:27,638
- Really? Well, all right.

871
00:56:27,638 --> 00:56:30,850
Let's take a look at the
television and see how we look.

872
00:56:33,185 --> 00:56:34,395
- [Scooby] Cool.

873
00:56:34,395 --> 00:56:36,355
(audience applauding)
- Welcome to the show, Scooby.

874
00:56:36,355 --> 00:56:38,065
- Thank you.
- Nice, nice to have you here.

875
00:56:38,065 --> 00:56:38,941
- Great to be here.
- And thank you

876
00:56:38,941 --> 00:56:40,401
for dressing up for us.

877
00:56:40,401 --> 00:56:42,278
This is very classy,
(audience laughing)

878
00:56:42,278 --> 00:56:45,364
Uh, tell us, what kind of
professional plans do you have?

879
00:56:45,364 --> 00:56:46,449
What's in your future?

880
00:56:47,366 --> 00:56:52,038
- Well, I was thinking
I might work for you.

881
00:56:52,038 --> 00:56:53,414
- Uh, tell me, what do you,

882
00:56:53,414 --> 00:56:54,540
what do you wanna do for me?

883
00:56:54,540 --> 00:56:56,542
What's, what's your idea?

884
00:56:56,542 --> 00:56:58,753
- Be your sidekick.
(audience chuckles)

885
00:56:58,753 --> 00:57:01,547
You know, and, and maybe, eventually,

886
00:57:01,547 --> 00:57:04,383
become a TV talk show host.

887
00:57:04,383 --> 00:57:06,510
- TV talk show host? Okay.

888
00:57:06,510 --> 00:57:08,804
You were at sidekick eight seconds ago,

889
00:57:08,804 --> 00:57:10,056
then TV talk show host.

890
00:57:10,056 --> 00:57:12,266
You'll be a Latin dictator
in about a minute.

891
00:57:12,266 --> 00:57:14,268
Let's see what they
think of the first idea.

892
00:57:14,268 --> 00:57:15,978
I'm curious what the audience thinks.

893
00:57:15,978 --> 00:57:19,023
Folks, what do you think, should
Scooby be my new sidekick?

894
00:57:19,023 --> 00:57:21,817
(audience applauding and cheering)

895
00:57:21,817 --> 00:57:23,194
Wow.

896
00:57:23,194 --> 00:57:24,195
Scooby, new sidekick,

897
00:57:24,195 --> 00:57:25,237
everybody.
- Oh, man.

898
00:57:26,364 --> 00:57:29,325
- [Audience] Yeah! Scooby!

899
00:57:29,325 --> 00:57:31,160
(knuckles rapping)

900
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:32,495
- [Scooby] Yeah?

901
00:57:38,334 --> 00:57:39,627
- Hey.
- Hey.

902
00:57:40,753 --> 00:57:41,587
What's up?

903
00:57:44,215 --> 00:57:47,385
- (sighs) There's something I
need to talk about with you.

904
00:57:49,387 --> 00:57:50,221
- What?

905
00:57:55,643 --> 00:57:57,645
- There are some rumors.

906
00:57:58,479 --> 00:57:59,313
- Like what?

907
00:58:04,068 --> 00:58:05,736
- You know. Stanley.

908
00:58:09,782 --> 00:58:10,741
(Brady sighs)

909
00:58:10,741 --> 00:58:11,575
- Huh.

910
00:58:15,121 --> 00:58:17,206
- Like, don't take this the wrong way.

911
00:58:19,208 --> 00:58:21,085
I'm, I mean, I'm cool,

912
00:58:23,421 --> 00:58:25,756
but you know,

913
00:58:27,299 --> 00:58:29,719
I've got a good reputation at school.

914
00:58:31,846 --> 00:58:34,849
Well, I really don't want it ruined.

915
00:58:37,810 --> 00:58:38,644
- No problem.

916
00:58:40,104 --> 00:58:40,938
I'm cool.

917
00:58:44,442 --> 00:58:45,276
- Thanks.

918
00:58:49,488 --> 00:58:51,407
(door thuds)

919
00:58:51,407 --> 00:58:55,870
(players thudding and groaning)

920
00:58:55,870 --> 00:58:57,705
- [Player] Go, go, go!

921
00:58:59,999 --> 00:59:00,833
(whistle trills)

922
00:59:00,833 --> 00:59:03,419
- Esposito, what the fuck
do you think you're doing?

923
00:59:03,419 --> 00:59:06,589
You're tackling like a bitch
on my football team, son!

924
00:59:06,589 --> 00:59:07,840
You better bend your ass over

925
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:09,175
and hit somebody, you understand me?

926
00:59:09,175 --> 00:59:10,009
- Yes, sir!

927
00:59:10,009 --> 00:59:10,968
- Do you understand me?
- Yes, sir!

928
00:59:10,968 --> 00:59:11,927
- Then do it!

929
00:59:11,927 --> 00:59:15,222
Livingston! That's the
way to hit that hole, son.

930
00:59:16,515 --> 00:59:18,559
We're gonna become a
football team today, guys!

931
00:59:18,559 --> 00:59:20,269
Let's move the ball!

932
00:59:20,269 --> 00:59:21,979
Move, move, move!

933
00:59:21,979 --> 00:59:22,813
- Break!
- I wanna see

934
00:59:22,813 --> 00:59:23,773
you hit those holes.

935
00:59:23,773 --> 00:59:25,941
Defense, fill those goddamn gaps!

936
00:59:25,941 --> 00:59:27,485
Let's go, guys. Let's do it!

937
00:59:29,028 --> 00:59:30,362
- [Cheerleaders] Yes, yes!

938
00:59:30,362 --> 00:59:31,489
A little bit rowdy.

939
00:59:33,866 --> 00:59:35,367
- [Player] Set left, set left.

940
00:59:36,952 --> 00:59:39,663
Red 17!

941
00:59:39,663 --> 00:59:42,958
Red 17! Hut!

942
00:59:44,043 --> 00:59:44,877
Hut! Hut!

943
00:59:46,629 --> 00:59:51,092
(players thudding and groaning)

944
00:59:51,092 --> 00:59:53,010
(ball whooshing)

945
00:59:53,010 --> 00:59:57,348
- Come on!
(players grunting)

946
00:59:57,348 --> 00:59:59,391
- [Spectator] That's it,
boys, that's it, boys!

947
00:59:59,391 --> 01:00:01,227
(spectators clapping)

948
01:00:01,227 --> 01:00:04,563
(cheerleaders chanting)

949
01:00:06,565 --> 01:00:09,819
(cheerleader cheering)

950
01:00:11,821 --> 01:00:15,491
(hospital staff chattering)

951
01:00:19,453 --> 01:00:21,080
- [Orderly] Keep moving!

952
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:23,332
(monitor beeping)

953
01:00:23,332 --> 01:00:26,502
(intubator whooshing)

954
01:00:31,715 --> 01:00:35,386
- When I'm in high school, I'm
not gonna play any football.

955
01:00:35,386 --> 01:00:37,555
I'm just gonna concentrate on class rank.

956
01:00:41,892 --> 01:00:44,520
What did you do in high school?

957
01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,022
- I did not go to high school.

958
01:00:48,232 --> 01:00:50,401
- Weren't there high
schools in El Salvador?

959
01:00:52,153 --> 01:00:56,615
- [Consuelo] We had to
work. My family was poor.

960
01:00:57,449 --> 01:00:59,243
- It must have been hard being poor.

961
01:01:01,453 --> 01:01:02,705
- I am still poor.

962
01:01:04,123 --> 01:01:07,710
- Hmm, but Consuelo,

963
01:01:08,627 --> 01:01:09,962
even though you're poor,

964
01:01:09,962 --> 01:01:13,883
don't you have any hobbies
or interests or anything?

965
01:01:15,676 --> 01:01:16,510
- No, Mikey.

966
01:01:17,511 --> 01:01:20,806
- But like, what do you like
to do when you're not working?

967
01:01:23,267 --> 01:01:25,477
- I am always working.

968
01:01:26,437 --> 01:01:31,442
- But when you're not, like
now, what do you like to do?

969
01:01:31,692 --> 01:01:32,985
- This is work.

970
01:01:34,361 --> 01:01:37,489
- But it's not like real work.

971
01:01:37,489 --> 01:01:39,033
This is just babysitting.

972
01:01:42,953 --> 01:01:46,832
You know, your job's really not so bad,

973
01:01:46,832 --> 01:01:47,958
if you think about it.

974
01:01:48,792 --> 01:01:50,044
You should smile more.

975
01:01:53,214 --> 01:01:54,089
(gentle bright music)

976
01:01:54,089 --> 01:01:57,593
- [Toby] When the sky is
clear and the sun is warm,

977
01:01:57,593 --> 01:02:00,262
you're reminded of how
beautiful things can be.

978
01:02:01,513 --> 01:02:04,767
A lamppost, a sign,

979
01:02:06,977 --> 01:02:09,939
a straw wrapper blowing in the wind.

980
01:02:11,315 --> 01:02:15,110
But when that dark cloud
appears, you realize

981
01:02:15,110 --> 01:02:18,572
how fragile the balance of life is.

982
01:02:18,572 --> 01:02:20,783
- When Brady first
arrived at the hospital,

983
01:02:20,783 --> 01:02:24,161
he was unresponsive to verbal stimuli.

984
01:02:24,161 --> 01:02:26,997
Uh, we performed a CT
scan which demonstrated

985
01:02:26,997 --> 01:02:31,126
a large subdural hematoma
with mass effect,

986
01:02:31,126 --> 01:02:34,880
Uh, since the removal of the
subdural, he's been in a coma.

987
01:02:36,215 --> 01:02:37,049
- When I first met the Livingstons

988
01:02:37,049 --> 01:02:40,594
it was in the first 24
hours of Brady coming in

989
01:02:40,594 --> 01:02:42,888
after his tragic football accident,

990
01:02:42,888 --> 01:02:45,307
and they were acting in
a fairly typical way.

991
01:02:45,307 --> 01:02:47,101
- We're not the ones that need the help.

992
01:02:47,101 --> 01:02:48,811
My son needs help.

993
01:02:48,811 --> 01:02:50,312
My son's in there,
- And you wanna know

994
01:02:50,312 --> 01:02:51,146
what to do to help him,
- He can't even feed himself.

995
01:02:51,146 --> 01:02:52,106
He can't, I don't even know

996
01:02:52,106 --> 01:02:55,651
if he's gonna be a vegetable
or not, for Christ's sake!

997
01:02:55,651 --> 01:02:57,903
- [Toby] But what about Scooby?

998
01:02:57,903 --> 01:02:59,571
How would this affect him?

999
01:03:00,614 --> 01:03:03,117
What meaning is to be found in this?

1000
01:03:12,918 --> 01:03:14,962
- This is definitely better.

1001
01:03:14,962 --> 01:03:15,796
- You think so?

1002
01:03:15,796 --> 01:03:18,799
You don't think that this
might not be a little dry?

1003
01:03:18,799 --> 01:03:20,592
- This is not an
entertainment you're making.

1004
01:03:20,592 --> 01:03:22,636
Toby, this story about
a kid in the suburbs

1005
01:03:22,636 --> 01:03:24,680
and the state of the
college admission process,

1006
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:26,390
has, with this Brady crisis,

1007
01:03:26,390 --> 01:03:28,851
evolved into something much
richer and more provocative.

1008
01:03:28,851 --> 01:03:29,685
- Yes, I know.

1009
01:03:29,685 --> 01:03:32,021
But it still, it should
be somewhat entertaining.

1010
01:03:32,021 --> 01:03:33,564
- I mean, without this footage,

1011
01:03:33,564 --> 01:03:35,107
without this rigorous documentation,

1012
01:03:35,107 --> 01:03:36,817
it would feel like exploitation.

1013
01:03:36,817 --> 01:03:37,860
- No, no, no, no.

1014
01:03:37,860 --> 01:03:40,446
No, no exploitation, this is serious.

1015
01:03:41,405 --> 01:03:44,241
But I mean, don't you find
it a little funny, too,

1016
01:03:44,241 --> 01:03:47,077
at the same time? (laughs)

1017
01:03:48,078 --> 01:03:49,788
- You've got a family
tragedy on your hands.

1018
01:03:49,788 --> 01:03:51,415
Will you tell me what's funny about that?

1019
01:03:51,415 --> 01:03:53,250
About a kid in a coma?

1020
01:03:53,250 --> 01:03:54,084
- Nothing, I guess.
- I mean,

1021
01:03:54,084 --> 01:03:55,544
why are you making this documentary

1022
01:03:55,544 --> 01:03:58,130
if you can't treat your subject
with appropriate gravity?

1023
01:03:58,130 --> 01:04:00,007
- Okay, you're right,
you're right. You're right.

1024
01:04:00,007 --> 01:04:02,718
(Toby chuckles)

1025
01:04:02,718 --> 01:04:06,764
You know, we need to
screen what we've got.

1026
01:04:06,764 --> 01:04:08,474
Invite some regular people,

1027
01:04:08,474 --> 01:04:10,059
just some random off-the-street types

1028
01:04:10,059 --> 01:04:12,978
and, and, and see what
real people think of this.

1029
01:04:12,978 --> 01:04:13,812
- I don't know, Toby.

1030
01:04:13,812 --> 01:04:15,314
We really have a long way to go.

1031
01:04:15,314 --> 01:04:17,024
You still need to get a lot more footage

1032
01:04:17,024 --> 01:04:18,901
and it's probably a
little premature to start-

1033
01:04:18,901 --> 01:04:22,029
- Okay, then we can invite
serious intellectual types.

1034
01:04:22,029 --> 01:04:23,697
- We're not ready,
- Hip alternative types

1035
01:04:23,697 --> 01:04:25,532
who'll understand the process.
- Toby, we're not ready!

1036
01:04:25,532 --> 01:04:27,451
We are not ready!
- Well, I need to see this

1037
01:04:27,451 --> 01:04:29,286
with an audience.

1038
01:04:29,286 --> 01:04:32,206
- What's an audience gonna tell you?

1039
01:04:32,206 --> 01:04:33,832
- I don't know.

1040
01:04:33,832 --> 01:04:34,958
Maybe they'll like it.

1041
01:04:38,420 --> 01:04:40,839
(Toby sighs)

1042
01:05:06,990 --> 01:05:09,576
(ice clatters)

1043
01:05:15,666 --> 01:05:20,087
- Consuelo! I spilled some
grape juice on the floor.

1044
01:05:23,090 --> 01:05:25,884
Consuelo? (sighs)

1045
01:05:45,779 --> 01:05:46,822
Consuelo?

1046
01:05:48,740 --> 01:05:51,660
(Consuelo sobbing)

1047
01:05:57,791 --> 01:06:01,128
Consuelo. Are you crying?

1048
01:06:03,464 --> 01:06:04,882
- No.

1049
01:06:04,882 --> 01:06:07,342
- Yes, you are. I can tell.

1050
01:06:08,802 --> 01:06:09,845
What's the matter?

1051
01:06:10,846 --> 01:06:12,473
(Consuelo sniffles)

1052
01:06:12,473 --> 01:06:16,310
(Consuelo speaks Spanish)

1053
01:06:16,310 --> 01:06:18,020
- Speak English.

1054
01:06:20,022 --> 01:06:23,901
(Consuelo speaks Spanish)

1055
01:06:23,901 --> 01:06:27,279
- Consuelo, I'm sorry, but you know

1056
01:06:27,279 --> 01:06:30,199
if you don't speak English
I can't understand you.

1057
01:06:31,658 --> 01:06:35,537
- (inhales deeply) My Jesus.

1058
01:06:36,914 --> 01:06:38,790
- Who is Jesus?

1059
01:06:38,790 --> 01:06:41,793
- (sniffles) My baby.

1060
01:06:41,793 --> 01:06:43,962
- You have a baby?

1061
01:06:45,130 --> 01:06:47,257
- My grandchild baby.

1062
01:06:48,258 --> 01:06:51,428
- Gee, I didn't even know
you had any children.

1063
01:06:53,514 --> 01:06:55,349
But why are you so upset about Jesus?

1064
01:06:57,476 --> 01:06:58,560
- He is dead.

1065
01:07:00,395 --> 01:07:03,524
- Oh. How did that happen?

1066
01:07:04,691 --> 01:07:07,528
- (exhales deeply) He was executed.

1067
01:07:10,113 --> 01:07:11,990
He was on death row

1068
01:07:13,867 --> 01:07:15,744
and then he was executed.

1069
01:07:17,204 --> 01:07:18,580
- How did they execute him?

1070
01:07:22,292 --> 01:07:23,126
- Poison gas.

1071
01:07:26,088 --> 01:07:27,714
- Maybe it's for the best.

1072
01:07:28,966 --> 01:07:31,843
I mean, if he was guilty
of doing something wrong.

1073
01:07:32,761 --> 01:07:34,638
People who are bad should be killed.

1074
01:07:35,514 --> 01:07:36,640
Don't you think so?

1075
01:07:38,058 --> 01:07:39,309
- Jesus was not bad.

1076
01:07:40,852 --> 01:07:44,189
- Maybe he was and you
just didn't know it.

1077
01:07:46,441 --> 01:07:47,442
- He wasn't.

1078
01:07:49,403 --> 01:07:51,113
- But still, you can't be sure.

1079
01:07:51,113 --> 01:07:52,531
- I am sure.

1080
01:07:53,865 --> 01:07:55,409
- But really, you never know.

1081
01:07:56,535 --> 01:07:57,369
- I know!

1082
01:08:04,251 --> 01:08:05,752
- Why was he on death row?

1083
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:15,137
- For rape and murder.

1084
01:08:18,682 --> 01:08:22,311
- Consuelo, what is rape, exactly?

1085
01:08:28,108 --> 01:08:31,069
- It is when you love someone

1086
01:08:32,863 --> 01:08:34,406
and they don't love you,

1087
01:08:35,991 --> 01:08:38,118
and you do something about it.

1088
01:08:41,413 --> 01:08:44,708
- Sometimes I feel like
my parents don't love me.

1089
01:08:48,128 --> 01:08:50,464
- Well, then, when you get older,

1090
01:08:50,464 --> 01:08:52,674
you can do something about it.

1091
01:09:01,767 --> 01:09:04,311
(Consuelo sobbing)

1092
01:09:04,311 --> 01:09:08,857
- Consuelo? I spilled
some grape juice upstairs.

1093
01:09:09,900 --> 01:09:12,194
Do you think you could
clean up the floor now?

1094
01:09:15,155 --> 01:09:17,324

- Dad?

1100
01:09:31,713 --> 01:09:34,424
Do you think that Brady
will ever get better?

1101
01:09:38,887 --> 01:09:40,389
- One-in-a-million recover.

1102
01:09:42,683 --> 01:09:45,560
- Maybe he's that one-in-a-million.

1103
01:09:47,020 --> 01:09:49,898
- Mikey, there's optimism

1104
01:09:51,108 --> 01:09:52,776
and then there's stupidity.

1105
01:09:52,776 --> 01:09:54,277
It's a very fine line.

1106
01:09:56,029 --> 01:09:58,115
- I don't think there's any hope either.

1107
01:09:59,282 --> 01:10:02,119
I was just trying to make you feel better.

1108
01:10:02,119 --> 01:10:03,453
- Thanks.

1109
01:10:03,453 --> 01:10:04,287
- You're welcome,

1110
01:10:06,415 --> 01:10:07,249
Dad?

1111
01:10:09,251 --> 01:10:11,878
Would you let me try hypnotizing you now?

1112
01:10:13,714 --> 01:10:16,007
(Marty sighs)

1113
01:10:16,007 --> 01:10:19,136
- Yeah, sure. Go ahead, hypnotize me.

1114
01:10:20,178 --> 01:10:22,139
- Okay, stay there. I'll be right back.

1115
01:10:28,729 --> 01:10:32,899
Just a sec! Be right there.

1116
01:10:34,776 --> 01:10:37,863
(footsteps thudding)

1117
01:10:38,739 --> 01:10:40,574
Could you turn around to me?

1118
01:10:40,574 --> 01:10:42,284
Just turn. Thanks.

1119
01:10:44,494 --> 01:10:49,499
All right, you must look
at this shiny object

1120
01:10:50,834 --> 01:10:52,043
and concentrate.

1121
01:10:54,504 --> 01:10:56,840
Relax your legs.

1122
01:10:59,176 --> 01:11:01,344
Relax your arms.

1123
01:11:03,013 --> 01:11:04,848
Relax your shoulders.

1124
01:11:06,016 --> 01:11:09,478
Now keep your eyes on the shiny object.

1125
01:11:10,854 --> 01:11:12,647
Your eyelids are getting heavy.

1126
01:11:14,399 --> 01:11:15,233
Heavier.

1127
01:11:17,027 --> 01:11:19,029
You're getting sleepy.

1128
01:11:20,197 --> 01:11:21,531
Sleepier.

1129
01:11:23,158 --> 01:11:25,744
Now let your eyes close shut.

1130
01:11:27,162 --> 01:11:30,081
And you are sound asleep.

1131
01:11:43,595 --> 01:11:48,600
Now you are completely under my power.

1132
01:11:50,477 --> 01:11:52,646
I am the only voice you can hear,

1133
01:11:53,814 --> 01:11:55,816
the only voice you will listen to.

1134
01:11:57,484 --> 01:12:00,403
And now, when you wake up,

1135
01:12:01,613 --> 01:12:03,156
you will be in a good mood.

1136
01:12:04,199 --> 01:12:06,326
You won't worry so much about Brady

1137
01:12:07,327 --> 01:12:09,412
and I will be your favorite from now on.

1138
01:12:10,831 --> 01:12:15,377
If Brady dies, you can
be sad for a little bit,

1139
01:12:15,377 --> 01:12:18,880
but I will still be the most
important person in your life.

1140
01:12:19,756 --> 01:12:21,675
You will never be mean to me

1141
01:12:21,675 --> 01:12:24,177
and always give me whatever I want.

1142
01:12:25,303 --> 01:12:28,723
Also, you should fire Consuelo.

1143
01:12:28,723 --> 01:12:29,850
She's lazy.

1144
01:12:31,268 --> 01:12:33,562
Now, when I snap my fingers,

1145
01:12:33,562 --> 01:12:34,896
you will remember nothing,

1146
01:12:35,730 --> 01:12:38,400
but you will do everything I have asked.

1147
01:12:39,651 --> 01:12:42,737
One, two,

1148
01:12:44,573 --> 01:12:46,825
three. (snaps fingers)

1149
01:12:46,825 --> 01:12:50,078
(Marty inhales deeply)

1150
01:12:51,955 --> 01:12:53,874
(Marty clear throat)

1151
01:12:53,874 --> 01:12:56,710
- Hey, Mikey, you wanna
get some ice cream?

1152
01:12:57,752 --> 01:12:59,170
- Okay!

1153
01:12:59,170 --> 01:13:02,340
(gentle upbeat music)

1154
01:13:04,217 --> 01:13:08,555
- It's like, (sighs) yeah, I-I caved in.

1155
01:13:09,890 --> 01:13:11,892
I mean, I had to.

1156
01:13:11,892 --> 01:13:16,897
My parents, they're like still
really depressed about Brady.

1157
01:13:18,857 --> 01:13:21,192
So I wrote the bullshit essay,

1158
01:13:21,192 --> 01:13:23,945
filled out the applications,
did the interviews.

1159
01:13:25,530 --> 01:13:28,158
You know, I figure I can always drop out.

1160
01:13:28,158 --> 01:13:30,327
- [Toby] So where'd you get in?

1161
01:13:30,327 --> 01:13:31,161
- Princeton.

1162
01:13:33,079 --> 01:13:35,206
- [Toby] But wh-what
did you get on your SATs?

1163
01:13:37,709 --> 01:13:39,586
- Uh, 200 verbal, 710 math.

1164
01:13:42,005 --> 01:13:43,465
Kinda weird, I know,

1165
01:13:43,465 --> 01:13:46,843
but I think they thought it was, like,

1166
01:13:49,220 --> 01:13:50,055
good weird.

1167
01:13:52,515 --> 01:13:53,600
- We used pull.

1168
01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:54,684
- You know, you have to.

1169
01:13:54,684 --> 01:13:57,228
Sometimes you just have to, Toby.

1170
01:13:57,228 --> 01:13:59,189
- [Toby] What kind of pull did you have?

1171
01:13:59,189 --> 01:14:00,023
- I have a cousin.

1172
01:14:00,023 --> 01:14:01,942
A very big giver to the alumni fund.

1173
01:14:01,942 --> 01:14:03,151
- It's all about who you know.

1174
01:14:03,151 --> 01:14:04,819
- Look, we're not suckers.

1175
01:14:04,819 --> 01:14:07,155
Everyone else is out there
doing the same thing.

1176
01:14:07,155 --> 01:14:07,989
- He's right.

1177
01:14:10,033 --> 01:14:11,952
- Damn, Toby.
- It's too hard.

1178
01:14:11,952 --> 01:14:12,869
- This thing won't open again.
- Don't.

1179
01:14:12,869 --> 01:14:14,913
Let me try it. Let me try it.

1180
01:14:14,913 --> 01:14:18,375
It's, um, yes, the button is just stuck.

1181
01:14:18,375 --> 01:14:20,794
- Hey, hey, Toby?
- Hey, man.

1182
01:14:20,794 --> 01:14:22,295
- I was wondering.

1183
01:14:22,295 --> 01:14:24,464
Is the documentary almost finished?

1184
01:14:24,464 --> 01:14:26,257
- Uh, yeah, we're getting there.

1185
01:14:27,717 --> 01:14:29,803
- Can I see what you have so far?

1186
01:14:29,803 --> 01:14:33,515
- Sure, uh, yeah, as soon
as I have a screening,

1187
01:14:33,515 --> 01:14:34,432
I'll let you know.

1188
01:14:35,684 --> 01:14:37,060
- Thanks, man.
- Okay, man.

1189
01:14:37,978 --> 01:14:38,812
- Okay.

1190
01:14:42,232 --> 01:14:43,733
- Gin, I win.

1191
01:14:43,733 --> 01:14:44,567
(door thuds)

1192
01:14:44,567 --> 01:14:45,402
Let's play again.

1193
01:14:46,277 --> 01:14:48,405
- [Marty] (sighs) Hey, Mikey!

1194
01:14:48,405 --> 01:14:49,990
- Hey, Dad,
- Come here and gimme a hug.

1195
01:14:49,990 --> 01:14:51,282
Come here!

1196
01:14:51,282 --> 01:14:52,158
- Gee, you're home early.

1197
01:14:52,158 --> 01:14:52,993
- Yeah.

1198
01:14:52,993 --> 01:14:54,828
Uh, listen, why don't you go upstairs

1199
01:14:54,828 --> 01:14:57,288
and keep your mom and
Brady company for a bit?

1200
01:14:57,288 --> 01:14:59,457
I need to speak alone with
Consuelo for a moment.

1201
01:14:59,457 --> 01:15:01,042
- Sure, Dad,
- Take off.

1202
01:15:02,544 --> 01:15:03,795
(clears throat) Consuelo.

1203
01:15:10,802 --> 01:15:15,348
Um, Mrs. Livingston and I have,

1204
01:15:15,348 --> 01:15:17,142
uh, discussed this

1205
01:15:17,142 --> 01:15:19,310
and we've come to the conclusion

1206
01:15:19,310 --> 01:15:22,230
that we are not very happy
with your work lately,

1207
01:15:22,230 --> 01:15:23,940
so we're going to let you go.

1208
01:15:26,234 --> 01:15:28,236
- I-I don't understand.

1209
01:15:28,236 --> 01:15:29,738
- We've been happy with you in the past,

1210
01:15:29,738 --> 01:15:32,032
but now we think maybe
it's time for a change.

1211
01:15:32,032 --> 01:15:34,701
Uh, I know you've had trouble at home.

1212
01:15:34,701 --> 01:15:35,702
And, and, and maybe, you know,

1213
01:15:35,702 --> 01:15:37,579
some of that is reflecting on your work.

1214
01:15:37,579 --> 01:15:41,958
- [Consuelo] But, Mr, Livingston,
I work very hard for you

1215
01:15:41,958 --> 01:15:43,126
and your family.
- I understand.

1216
01:15:43,126 --> 01:15:43,960
I understand that.

1217
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:45,128
And, and, and I'm sorry.

1218
01:15:45,128 --> 01:15:47,464
I'm sorry it had to end this way.

1219
01:15:47,464 --> 01:15:50,383

- Florsheim, can I help you?

01:16:39,349 --> 01:16:42,227
- [Scooby] Hi, I'm trying
to reach Toby Oxman.

- Sorry, he's off today.

1227
01:16:46,397 --> 01:16:49,984
Um. Thanks.

- Uh, no, he's not.

1238
01:17:17,095 --> 01:17:20,473
- [Scooby] Oh. Uh, do you have
any idea where he might be?

1239
01:17:20,473 --> 01:17:23,893
- Uh, I think he's at a test screening.

1240
01:17:23,893 --> 01:17:26,437

(audience laughing)

1249
01:17:49,752 --> 01:17:50,753
- I think Scooby's like a lot of kids.

1250
01:17:50,753 --> 01:17:53,631
He just hit a, a speed bump.

1251
01:17:53,631 --> 01:17:54,799
Now he's gonna find his way,

1252
01:17:54,799 --> 01:17:56,050
uh, his path's gonna be clear,

1253
01:17:56,050 --> 01:17:57,886
and I think he's gonna
continue his education

1254
01:17:57,886 --> 01:17:58,887
at a good college.

1255
01:17:59,721 --> 01:18:02,724
And uh, everybody else is gonna be happy.

1256
01:18:02,724 --> 01:18:06,603
- [Toby] Yeah, (clears
throat) um, Mr. Livingston,

1257
01:18:06,603 --> 01:18:08,438
aren't you a bit fearful that Scooby

1258
01:18:08,438 --> 01:18:10,773
will be confronted with hollow values

1259
01:18:10,773 --> 01:18:13,318
and systemic conformism?

1260
01:18:13,318 --> 01:18:14,861
(audience chuckles)

1261
01:18:14,861 --> 01:18:16,487
- (exhales deeply) I don't
know why this is so hard

1262
01:18:16,487 --> 01:18:17,739
for you to comprehend.

1263
01:18:17,739 --> 01:18:19,866
I had a terrific time in college.

1264
01:18:19,866 --> 01:18:22,035
I've got a terrific job,
a comfortable salary,

1265
01:18:22,035 --> 01:18:24,621
terrific wife, three terrific kids,

1266
01:18:24,621 --> 01:18:26,915
and every year I give to the alumni fund.

1267
01:18:26,915 --> 01:18:29,083
Now, why are you trying
to make college out

1268
01:18:29,083 --> 01:18:30,501
to be a bad thing?

1269
01:18:30,501 --> 01:18:33,421
A negative experience? You had a bad time?

1270
01:18:33,421 --> 01:18:36,382
Well, too bad! Get over it!

1271
01:18:36,382 --> 01:18:38,801
Stop trying to impose
your misery on others

1272
01:18:38,801 --> 01:18:41,179
by going around saying, "Life is bad,

1273
01:18:41,179 --> 01:18:42,680
life is horrible."

1274
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:45,391
Life is tough on you? Well, boo-hoo!

1275
01:18:45,391 --> 01:18:47,644
(audience laughing)

1276
01:18:47,644 --> 01:18:50,939
- Well, yeah, My dad
is kind of a goofball.

1277
01:18:52,148 --> 01:18:56,527
You just have to pretend
to go along with his ideas,

1278
01:18:56,527 --> 01:18:59,322
'cause he really doesn't get it.

1279
01:19:01,157 --> 01:19:03,034
Like, I could be the next Oprah

1280
01:19:03,034 --> 01:19:04,035
for all he knows,

1281
01:19:05,078 --> 01:19:06,913
but he's never even seen the show.

1282
01:19:06,913 --> 01:19:08,331
(audience laughing)

1283
01:19:08,331 --> 01:19:10,416
- [Toby] What is most important to you?

1284
01:19:11,918 --> 01:19:14,504
- I don't know. (sighs)

1285
01:19:14,504 --> 01:19:16,839
I'd, I'd like to be good at, at something.

1286
01:19:16,839 --> 01:19:19,968
You know, it doesn't have to be TV.

1287
01:19:19,968 --> 01:19:24,222
I mean, it could be movies. Anything.

1288
01:19:25,431 --> 01:19:28,142
I- I'd be willing to direct.

1289
01:19:28,142 --> 01:19:31,145
(audience laughing)

1290
01:19:32,522 --> 01:19:34,565
But I'd like to be,

1291
01:19:34,565 --> 01:19:38,403
you know, famous.

1292
01:19:41,072 --> 01:19:43,741
Not necessarily a superstar.

1293
01:19:46,869 --> 01:19:48,079
Just famous.

1294
01:19:51,624 --> 01:19:53,001
Be recognized.

1295
01:19:55,169 --> 01:19:58,631
Get fan mail and things.

1296
01:19:59,632 --> 01:20:01,092
- [Toby] Uh, Scooby, now I understand

1297
01:20:01,092 --> 01:20:03,261
how you wanna be like a
TV talk show host and all,

1298
01:20:03,261 --> 01:20:06,097
like Conan O'Brien, but did you know

1299
01:20:06,097 --> 01:20:07,640
that even he went to college?

1300
01:20:10,059 --> 01:20:11,019
- He did?
- Yeah.

1301
01:20:11,019 --> 01:20:14,981
(audience laughing)
Uh, he went to Harvard.

1302
01:20:14,981 --> 01:20:18,860
- Oh.
(audience continues laughing)

1303
01:20:18,860 --> 01:20:22,113
(audience applauding)

1304
01:20:27,285 --> 01:20:30,246
- [Reporter] One police officer,
eight others were wounded,

1305
01:20:30,246 --> 01:20:31,664
before he tried to kill-
- Mom?

1306
01:20:31,664 --> 01:20:33,374
Dad?
- Identified as Bruce Evan.

1307
01:20:34,292 --> 01:20:35,293
- [Mikey] Can I sleep with you?

1308
01:20:35,293 --> 01:20:36,878
I- I-I'm scared.

1309
01:20:36,878 --> 01:20:39,255
- Sure, buddy. Come on.

1310
01:20:39,255 --> 01:20:41,632
- Come in bed with us. Come on.

1311
01:20:41,632 --> 01:20:42,592
(Fern sighs)

1312
01:20:42,592 --> 01:20:46,429
- Snug as a bug in a rug.
(Fern giggles)

1313
01:20:46,429 --> 01:20:49,515
Yeah, there you go, pally, all right.

1314
01:20:52,935 --> 01:20:54,812
You're monster-proofed.
- Hm.

1315
01:21:01,277 --> 01:21:04,155
(insects chirping)

1316
01:21:13,081 --> 01:21:15,666
(key rattles)

1317
01:21:15,666 --> 01:21:18,169
(door clicks)

1318
01:21:24,884 --> 01:21:28,221

1319
01:21:28,221 --> 01:21:30,890

01:22:15,726 --> 01:22:18,563

1324
01:22:19,856 --> 01:22:22,859

1325
01:22:22,859 --> 01:22:26,028

1326
01:22:41,210 --> 01:22:44,130
(crowd chattering)

1327
01:22:46,090 --> 01:22:50,970
- Stand by.

1328
01:22:50,970 --> 01:22:53,931
(truck engine rumbling)

1329
01:22:53,931 --> 01:22:55,600

1333
01:23:10,156 --> 01:23:11,741
- Scooby.

1334
01:23:11,741 --> 01:23:13,910
Oh my God, Scooby.

1335
01:23:13,910 --> 01:23:14,994
I'm so sorry.

1336
01:23:15,870 --> 01:23:17,997
I'm so, so sorry.

1337
01:23:17,997 --> 01:23:18,831
- Don't be.

1338
01:23:22,126 --> 01:23:23,503
