- That woman has her packages
sent here all the time.
20
00:00:54,980 --> 00:00:58,220
And that dude brought in
a shredder last week.
21
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,420
- No wonder the Wi-Fi's
so damn slow in this bitch.

for my stories to load.

is the best home for him

head with how inclusive we are.

[chuckles]
Nothing to see here.
349
00:15:18,030 --> 00:15:20,100
I, um, also grabbed you dinner.
350
00:15:20,170 --> 00:15:21,770
It's in the kitchen.
351
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,040
- Thank you.
352
00:15:23,070 --> 00:15:25,040
I've been so busy
I forgot to eat.
353
00:15:25,110 --> 00:15:27,210
- I don't ever
wanna be that busy.
354
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,680
- Then you never
wanna be successful.
355
00:15:29,750 --> 00:15:31,680
I need to get the new draft
to the studio
356
00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:32,980
first thing in the morning.
357
00:15:33,050 --> 00:15:34,280
- Can't they give you more
time?
358
00:15:34,350 --> 00:15:35,790
The creative spirit
can't be rushed.
359
00:15:35,850 --> 00:15:37,420
- [chuckles] Sounds like
the mantra of someone
360
00:15:37,490 --> 00:15:39,190
who never finishes anything.
361
00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:40,690
What have you
gotten accomplished today?
362
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,360
- I was supposed
to work on my script,
363
00:15:42,420 --> 00:15:44,630
but I kept getting distracted.
364
00:15:44,690 --> 00:15:46,830
And I still haven't
found my happy place.
365
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:48,760
- Happy place?
366
00:15:48,830 --> 00:15:50,830
- Yeah, the place where writers
go to be inspired to write.
367
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:52,870
- Where are you getting this?
368
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,600
I don't have a happy place.
369
00:15:54,670 --> 00:15:57,610
But you know what I do have?
Deadlines.
370
00:15:57,670 --> 00:15:59,010
Writing isn't about
being happy.
371
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:00,610
It's about being disciplined.
372
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,310
- You don't ever get
distracted?
373
00:16:02,380 --> 00:16:05,680
- I don't have the luxury
of being distracted.
374
00:16:05,750 --> 00:16:08,250
Writing isn't a hobby for me.
It's a job.
375
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,390
- It's not a hobby
for me either.
376
00:16:10,450 --> 00:16:13,060
- Well, then I suggest
you get to it.
377
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,360
You can work on
your script here

at the office, if you'd like.
379
00:16:16,260 --> 00:16:18,130
I'm gonna be here
all night anyway.
380
00:16:18,190 --> 00:16:19,560
- I can't.
381
00:16:19,630 --> 00:16:22,830
Actually, I have a party
I need to get to.
382
00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:25,970
- Well, we all have
our priorities, don't we?
383
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,740
I'm gonna get back to work,
but you have fun though.

- Wow.

390
00:16:41,750 --> 00:16:43,290
- He is such an asshole.
391
00:16:43,350 --> 00:16:44,990
No.
He's smart.

- Really, babe?
- Don't let him out-hustle you.
393
00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:48,360
I shouldn't have
to give Quaintrelle a handjob
394
00:16:48,420 --> 00:16:49,890
just to get him
to sign with us.
395
00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:52,160
- Well, we both know
how much you hate giving those.
396
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,570
- Look at them over there.
397
00:16:56,630 --> 00:17:00,140

yourself in the conversation.

- How's the party?
400
00:17:03,910 --> 00:17:06,910
- Honestly, it's kinda wack.
401
00:17:07,010 --> 00:17:10,410
And low-key, I need to be home
working on my script.
402
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,020
- According to your Insta story
you were writing all day.
403
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,250
- Nah, I was bullshitting
most of the day.

I don't think she'll mind
if you go home.

I haven't seen you since
415
00:17:40,380 --> 00:17:42,010
we did that Tide commercial
when we were kids.
416

That was forever ago.
417

- Are you still acting?
- Hell no.
418
00:17:45,510 --> 00:17:47,320
Girl, I escaped that life
and went to college,
419
00:17:47,380 --> 00:17:48,550
then to grad school.
420
00:17:48,620 --> 00:17:50,350
I work here now

- What about you?
423
00:17:55,660 --> 00:17:58,230
- Um, I took a break
for a while,
424
00:17:58,290 --> 00:18:00,060
but I think I might
get back into it.
425

Such a crazy lifestyle.
427

in a boring corporate job.

You want one?
- I don't eat fake crab.

how long ago was that?

It's too bad you were busy.

you couldn't make it.

to a little group of rebels
known as the Viet Cong.
451
00:19:09,030 --> 00:19:10,430
You know how it happened?
452
00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:13,570
The U.S. underestimated
their opponent.
453
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,870
They had power,
but lacked strategy.
454
00:19:17,010 --> 00:19:19,410
They were fighting
a ground war,
455
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,180
but the Viet Cong
built tunnels.
456
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,180
They had spies.
457
00:19:24,250 --> 00:19:28,380
They knew the enemy better than
the enemy knew themselves.
