[laughter]

- You're being outsmarted by
a lock.

- [chuckles]

- Hey, let's just screw
in an alley as usual.

Come on.
- No!

Remember last time,
the raccoons got so angry.

- Oh, they're just jealous.

- Ta-da!
Hey!

Ow!

- Oh, shit.
You all right?

- What happened to holding
a door open for a lady?

- Oh, I'm so sorry.
You know what?

No, I'll make it up to you
in other--other ways.

Oh, the hair flip.
- [chuckles]

- Mmm.

[both moaning]

[both yell]

Ow.
You all right?

Oh, boy.

Ooh, my.

Oh, you are very wet,
young lady.

- Well,
I--you pissed yourself.

- Oh man, Jim Brockmire.

Well, a lot got on you.

Hey, twinsies!

We're piss twins!

- Stop talking.
- [chuckles]

[soft acoustic]

- Now, uh, there's nothing
to be scared of.

No one's in trouble.

Now these affirm that
you are no longer involved

in a sexual relationship.

And should you
change your mind,

here are forms that you must
turn in simultaneously,

letting the league know

that you have re-entered
a relationship.

- That won't be necessary.

- Yeah, no.
Those days are long over.

- Great.

Uh, lastly, all I need are
the declarations

that I asked you to prepare

regarding the length
of the relationship.

- Oh, boy.

I think I misunderstood
the assignment.

- All we require is
a short statement

as--as--as Ms. James wrote.

Uh, "Jim and I dated
for five months

in the spring and summer
of 2017."

- Right.

- I--you gave it a title?
- I did.

- "Jim and Jules:
The Fuck Year"?

- Yeah.

Well, I was gonna call it
"Mein Rump,"

but, uh, decided against
that one for obvious reasons.

My hatred of puns.

- You were blacked out when we
got kicked out of Waffle House.

- Yeah, no, I pieced that
one together

using primary sources.

You know, it turns out
that back then,

having public sex
in a diner booth

was considered regional news.

Yeah?
Simpler times.

- Well, I guess this tome
very comprehensively

fulfills the requirement.

I just need to go make a copy.

This may take a while.

- Yeah, sorry.

It's quite heavy,
so be careful.

My only copy.

[chuckles]

- [chuckles]

I can't believe you're
still obsessed with me.

- What?
- This job is all a ruse

for us to start dating again?

- We're not talking
about dating.

Haven't thought about dating
since I became a single parent.

- Then why am I here?

- Because you're the very best
at what you do, Jules.

Every year,
the most exciting baseball team

was whichever one
you were selling,

except now I need you to sell
all of baseball

'cause if we don't,
this sport's gonna die

like an old white man
in an armchair.

No one will notice
and no one will care.

- For the record,

saving baseball is
the only reason I'm here.

- No, agreed.
That's all I want.

Really.

I mean, I'm nothing
if not professional.

- You drew pornographic
diagrams of us having sex

and submitted them to HR.

- That was for my own
edification

because the physics described
in the Waffle House booth

just seemed impossible to me.

♪

[thudding]

Jesus.

Looking good.

What'd you do,
sleep in my office?

- Sleep?
[scoffs]

I pulled an all-nighter.

I thought about getting
some coke,

but I just pounded
coffee instead.

So now my stomach's a mess
and I'm pissing on stuff.

- I'm glad your instinct was
to not do coke at work, Jules.

- Say I wanted to do
some coke after work.

Which one of these office
jockeys can make that happen?

- How about you just pitch me
some baseball ideas, huh?

- Oh, God.
My stomach.

[sharp exhale]

[sighs]
Okay.

You ready?

Here's how we get fans
back to baseball.

First, shorten the game.
- Oh yes, please.

I've been trying to get
the game down to three hours

for years now.

- Keep going.
Make it two-thirty.

Robot umps,
shorten the pitch clock.

- I love that.

- Plus we make a rule
that only four pitchers

can be active on each team,

thereby eliminating
bull-penning.

- That's genius.

I never even heard
of that one before.

- And here's the humdinger.

We increase access to players
during the game

through body cams, microphones,
live-streaming.

We turn the players into stars

by making the game
a living, breathing,

visceral viewing experience

where the fans are actually
in control.

- Oh, my God.
That's fantastic.

- I know, I know!
Right?

- Great dreaming out loud
session,

but, uh, we should probably
get back to work now.

- What's wrong with my ideas?

Sure, they would take
a little financial investment

at the top, but--
- Ding, ding, ding.

We have a winner.

These guys aren't gonna spend a
dime to try to save this game.

I mean, you remember 'em from
when you used to work for 'em.

They're not like us,
these owners.

They're--
- Aliens from Planet Money.

- Exactly.

They have absolutely no idea
why the average person

likes or dislikes baseball.

The only time they
ever speak to one

is when the help talks back.

They're never, ever gonna agree
to anything substantial.

Believe me.

- Then we need new owners.

I'm gonna have to pull another
all-nighter,

and I can't have
anymore coffee, so...

- Liz seems to enjoy
the nightlife,

but please,
not in front of the interns!

Please!
Very impressionable.

[sighs]

[clamoring]

- Ladies and gentlemen.

[clamoring]

Ladies and gentlemen!

[clamoring stops]

And by that,
I mean gentlemen.

[chuckles]
I have an announcement.

- Who'd you kill this time?

[laughter]

- All right, all right.

Let's--let's listen
to what she has to say, huh?

- I know that owning
a major league team

has been frustrating lately,

what with the value
of your clubs decreasing

for the first time in history.

- My brother pays convicts
a dollar a day

to kill themselves
on an NFL field.

Now, why can't we just
force people to play baseball?

- A dollar a day?
He's spending too much.

- Probably, yeah.
[laughter]

- Buying a team was
the worst business decision

I've ever made,
worse than buying NBC.

Does anybody want NBC?

I--I've paid down
a lot of the debt...

- Actually, Leslie,
you're the reason

we're all gathered
here today.

I have an offer for your team,

and it's way above
asking price.

$1.5 billion.

- I'll take it.
I'll take it right now.
Thank you.

- Whoa, let's not get ahead
of ourselves, please.

I mean, we still gotta do
our due diligence

and vet this buyer, right?

I mean, I got no idea
where his income comes from.

- That's gonna be tough.
It's a very mysterious offer.

Could be the Saudis,
could be the Russians,

maybe a cartel.

Who else can make
an all-cash offer?

- Uh...

- I know you're new here,

but these are all
men of integrity.

I mean, well, no one's
so desperate for cash

that they're just gonna abandon
all of their moral obligations.

- I have something difficult
to admit to everyone here.

- Did you find out
you were a Jew?

- No, something worse.

This year,
I fell out of the "Forbes" list

of richest men in America.

- Oh, my God.

- They wouldn't even let me
into the party.

The 17-year-old Hungarian model
I was with, she laughed at me.

I might have to sell
my son's zoo.

They say he's on the spectrum.

I just want to give him room
to run.

- How much do you want
for the zoo?

I'll make the kid run.

- I'm pounding my desk
at home!

Can you hear me?
That's my cell pound!

Sell it, Leslie!
- I agree.

None of us should have
to endure the indignities

you've just described.

A laughing woman?
- Good man.

- Yeah.
All right.

- Uh, Jules,
you seem lost in thought.

- No, I just...

if I can get $1.5 billion
for Leslie's mid-market team,

I was just imagining what I
could get for other teams.

I know--I know it's not
up to me.

- Everybody here knows
I'm a righteous man.

When I ran over
the neighborhood boy,

I called my son-in-law,
I had him call my lawyer,

and said, "I want this handled
in the most honorable way,

so that there can be
no splash-back on me."

- Of course.
Good, good.

- So if selling my team
opens the money door

for my fellow owners,

I'm willing to make
the sacrifice.

- Sell the team.

all: Sell the team.
Sell the team.

Sell the team.
Sell the team!

Sell the team!
Sell the team!

Sell the team!

- Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
very exciting day for baseball

as we announce the sale of one
of our most beloved teams.

And I introduce to you
the newest voting member

in our group of owners,
Chief Sango Whitehorse.

Chief?

[applause,
camera shutters click]

- Thank you, Jim Brockmire.

As you all know,
many Native nations

have done very well
from Americans spending

their Depression money
in our casinos.

But we do not wish
to watch the country rot

from our gilded
reservation towers.

No!

So a coalition of tribes has
decided to reinvest our income

back into the great
American institution

of baseball.

- Hear, hear!
[applause]

- A place that for too long
has been a bastion

of unchecked racism towards
the native peoples.

[camera shutters click]

Till today.

I am proud to announce
that from now on

the Cleveland Indians

will now be now be known
as the Cleveland Colonizers.

[murmuring]

- Easy now, because
we haven't even gotten

to the really
offensive part yet.

- Now with a new name,
well, we needed a new logo.

To show our vision,

we've partnered
with a true visionary.

So please welcome
mogul designer,

mayor of Tallahassee,
and owner of the Lakers,

Sir Lil Diazepam.

- Yeah.
[applause]

Reveal it.
Go ahead.

[gasping]

- That's right, folks.

That's a cartoon white man

licking the blood off
a bayonet.

And now you can feel free to
get as offended as you like.

[clamoring, scattered applause]

- Nicely done.
Nicely done.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Would you look at this?
I can't believe this.

We actually have people talking
about baseball again.

God, this is fun.

I mean, not so much fun

that you should be
double-fisting at 10:00 a.m.

- No, no, I was just deciding
which one to drink.

- Right.

- Both.
- Uh-huh.

- [giggles]

I forgot how good
a team we make.

- [chuckles]

- We rope-a-doped
those owners together.

Surprised they weren't
more upset we tricked them.

- They're pretty upset.

You know,
I had to talk them down,

but we're all good now.

In fact, they wanted me to tell
you to keep up the good work.

- We got away with it!

- It kind of feels like
the old Morristown days,

doesn't it?
- And this is only part one.

First, we rattle the cages,
get the old owners scared,

Next, we bring in new owners,

only on the condition that they
agree to back all our changes.

Boom!

We got our voters' bloc.

I've already got five
new buyers lined up.

- Really?
How did you do that?

- By showing them
you could come in

and change a team name,

and--and get a ton
of media attention.

And I've got offers
on the Padres, Mariners, Rays.

Bill Magorium wants to buy
the Yankees.

- What is Magorium
like in person?

- Damp.
- Right.

Oh, I anticipated
this little problem.

So I took the liberty
of procuring you a backup.

- One bottle?
You know me better than that.

- That's true, I do.

My apologizes,
but, uh, well,

I promise to make it up
to you in other ways.

- Oh yeah?

- Mm.

Oh.

Oh, Ju--
oh, okay.

Oh, Jesus.
Oh, my goodness.

Whoa!
HR!

- Oh yeah,
you are no fun sober.

- No, it's not sobriety,
Jules.

We happen to be
at the office,

and sex with you comes with
some complications for me.

- All right,
save your speech.

I just wanna make a stop
in Bonetown;

I don't want to live there.

- Well, I would.
That's the problem.

See, you know,
there's nothing casual for me

about casual sex with you.

I--Jules, I'd get attached
and you wouldn't,

and that's fine, but you know,
you're building something here.

I don't want to mess that up.
- Boo!

- I've screwed up your life
too many times.

- I'm already over
this conversation.

You're so sober!

- You know, I like to think
that I've changed

in some other ways
since we were together.

- You got boring.

- Jules, my boyfriend
just dropped off

the eight-ball you ordered.

For your billiard table.

- Oh, very nice, Liz.
Very subtle.

Liz, everybody!

No clue she's referring
to drugs in the office.

- It's a good thing
you're here.

For a long time,

I was embarrassed
to work in baseball.

You know, my mom even called
to see if she could get herself

a Colonizer jersey?

- A good idea always has legs.

Classic Jim to go in
and take all the credit.

Now the owners think he...

I would've liked a pat
on the back, at least.

- Oh, you were not gonna get
a pat on the back from them.

They hate you.
- What?

[clamoring]
- Gentlemen?

Gentlemen, hello.

- She tricked us!
I want her burned!

- Leslie,
I understand you're angry,

but let's remember
that we're all gentlemen.

I say we take her up
in a zeppelin,

give her a nice dinner,
show her the view,

and then durst her ass!

- Yes!
- Easy, easy.

Please, I understand
you're very consternated.

Allow me to place your concerns
in their proper perspective.

You are all getting hammered
to the point of desperation,

and in that desperation,

you turned to a man that you
fully didn't understand.

Christopher Nolan
wrote those words,

because only a mind as depraved
and annoying and weird as his

could understand
a true agent of chaos,

like myself.

In other words,
if you fire Jules,

I will destroy
your whole world!

- World!

Or something like that.

- Are you saying Jim
went to bat for me?

- You could say that.

- I can't decide who's dumber.

You, you, or you!

Your family is nothing but
100 years of war profiteering,

and 200 years
of cousin fucking!

You strangled that stripper,
Freddie.

You know you did.

Sure,
it was international waters.

Whoo!

Your dad's your Uncle Steve
and your mom's your Aunt Susan.

Your third wife is technically
your grandson, Leslie!

I'm drawing a mustache
on your mustache.

She's your wife,
your grandson,

your wife,
your grandson.

You made your four-year-old
daughter get lipo!

Idiot!

You killed
the last dolphin, Leslie.

You paid to murder
the last dolphin!

You paid for the privilege!

So gentlemen,
in conclusion,

you either keep Jules on
or I walk.

Along with all your secrets,
nothing but time on my hands,

and the ability
to attract attention

like perhaps nobody else
in American history.

I mean, the choice is yours,
really.

You either let Jules
make you all a lot of money,

or I burn your beds down while
you're still sleeping in them.

[chuckles]
Oh, one more thing.

[zip, urinates]
- Oh, Jim!

- Oh, no!
- No, no.

- Psssh!
Just super-soaked Freddie

with all the liquids
inside of his body.

The guy was drenched.

I think in a show of dominance,

and it worked
'cause Freddie just took it.

- What do I look like?
A cake magician?

- [clears throat]

- Ooh, there's cake?

- Mm-hmm.
There's a ton left too.

I'll, uh, I'll give you a ride.

- Why'd you write,
"Letting Jules go

"was the hardest thing
I ever had to do,

but seeing her happy made
all my pain worth it"?

are always so on-the-nose,

and I'm sorry if reading
that stupid thing

made you relive everything.

- You--you--you were

The whole time we were dating,

you--you were fun
and interesting and dangerous,

but never kind.

- Yeah, I know.

- And now you're sticking up
for me

and--and writing
romantic epics?

- Well, it's really more
of a pornographic memoir

in the style
of Henry Miller, but..

- What happened to
the Jim Brockmire

who crawled out of my bed
just to stab me in the back?

- Well, I guess that back then,

I just didn't have the strength
to own my own feelings,

so I tried to drown them all
in alcohol.

The kindest path is always
the hardest one to walk.

It really was Beth, you know?

Raising her gave me

You'll see him tomorrow.

- No, when you realize

you have to go tell them

If you don't tell them
right away,

then you've wasted

By the way, set a reminder
