Original subtitles

- Oh, look, he's alive.

- I was getting worried.

I haven't heard a word from Simon

since he got on that elevator with Jessica.

I thought maybe she shanked him.

- As Eddie describes it, it was very amicable.

I mean, the Brits don't scream and yell like we do.

- Seems like Simon's finally coming up for air.

It says here, "A new day begins.

Looking forward to looking forward."

- See, that just makes me want to shank him.

- What do I do now?

I have no idea how I'm supposed to be around him.

I mean, he doesn't know that I know they broke up.

- And I know that you know that he's gonna run to you

and tell you at work.

- Okay, but what is the right way

to approach this kind of situation?

I mean, I really feel bad for them both.

It's not like-- it's not like I won.

- Oh, no, baby, you definitely won.

- How do I react when he tells me that they broke up?

Should I be concerned?

Sympathetic? Respectfully somber?

- You act like a human would act to a human.

The boy just broke up with his fiancée four days ago.

He'll come to you when he's ready.

Just play it cool.

- How do I do that?

- It's all in the attitude. Sit.

How about we say something comforting like...

"Hey."

- Hey. - No.

- Hey. - No.

- [sexy] Hey. - No.

- [shortly] Hey. - Zoey.

- You know what? I'm just gonna wing it.

- [drawn out] Hey...

- Stop it.

- Morning.

Stopping by for a little quality Dad time on my way to work.

[sighs heavily]

- [quiet grunt]

- You okay?

Maybe a little tired?

- [quiet grunt]

- Just write them back

and tell them you have to cancel.

- Cancel what?

- Medici. They just emailed

confirming our reservation for Friday night.

Same table every year.

- Oh, my God, I totally forgot.

It's almost your anniversary.

- [sighs] I think we all forgot.

We've been a little preoccupied around here.

- Why do you have to cancel? Maybe Dad still wants to go.

- You really think he's in any condition

to go out to a restaurant right now?

- I don't know, but it's Medici.

Mom and Dad have been celebrating there

for as long as I can remember.

- It is a special place, and we've had

a lot of great nights there, but, um, your father--

- Loves their tomato soup.

He could still eat that.

- Howie? What do you think?

- Well, your dad is slowing down, sleeping more.

But if you guys want to go, I am happy to help.

- See?

Howie thinks it a good idea. - That place is tiny.

I mean, you sure his wheelchair's even gonna fit?

- I'll call them and see if they'll make room,

and if they do, will you guys go?

- It's up to your father. I'm happy to do

whatever it is he wants. What do you think, honey?

- [soft grunt]

- Great. You guys don't have to worry about a thing.

I've got it handled.

[elevator bell dings]

What kind of a restaurant won't accommodate a wheelchair?

This is 2020. How is that even allowed?

Hello? Mr. Michele, where'd you go?

Mr. Michele? Mr. Michele?

Oh, no. Is today really the day?

- If you're talking about the day

where I move up to the 6th floor

and no one even looks up from their computers

to say goodbye, then yes. Today's the day.

- Sorry, I was gonna get you a gift,

like a fancy pen or an even-fancier mouse.

- Well, it's the almost-thought that counts.

I guess this is goodbye, huh?

- I guess so. It's gonna be

really weird not seeing your face every day.

- Yeah. Super weird.

- What are we doing? It's only two floors up.

- Yeah, two floors. That's nothing.

Yes, what are we doing? This is ridiculous.

Same elevator. - We're gonna be fine.

- We're fine, yeah. See ya.

[mug clinking]

I... [mug clatters]

- Sorry. - ...will see you later.

- Okay.

[music stops]

- Hey...

Aloha, Joan. How was your long weekend?

- Oh, you know, typical.

I was at a conference with a bunch of billionaires

getting tipsy and prank calling that Theranos woman.

- That's wild. So, I couldn't help but notice

that Leif called in sick the same days you were gone.

- And?

- And...it's possible

one may have inferred that you two were...

...canoodling together?

- We may have been canoodling

when we felt like canoodling.

Now, can we please stop speaking "Zoey"?

- Sorry.

It's just, I thought you said you were gonna end it with him.

- Oh, my God, we did, basically.

It's light and casual.

He's a millennial--they're apathetic and non-committal.

It's a beautiful thing.

- You're not worried he's just angling for a perk at work.

- I am the perk at work. [chuckles]

Why is there oatmeal? [gasps]

Oatmeal bar?

Whose idea was an oatmeal bar? Glen!

[sighs] Hey, how are we doing on The Chirp?

Why does it feel so empty in here?

- Oh, it's 'cause Max left.

He moved up to the 6th floor.

- You let Max go work for Ava?

- Ava wanted him and he wanted to go,

Sorry, Joan. I know you and Ava

have had a rivalry over the years.

- She's a monster.

- Well, if it makes you feel any better,

Max is probably miserable on the 6th floor anyway.

- Hi, I'm Max Richman...

your new manager of engineering.

Please hold your applause till the end. [chuckles]

I got this 7-step process for effective leadership

that I--I read about online

that...I think... it--it could really...

Hey, could I be honest with you guys? Uh...

I can't believe that Ava hired me for this job.

I mean, honestly, I'm-- I'm not a better programmer

than any of you. I know that.

But what I really want here is to foster an environment

where everyone feels like they are appreciated,

and heard, and valued.

Because you are.

You're the damn 6th floor!

And--and I am lucky to be a part of your team.

[applause]

- Good morning.

- [garbled] Oh, Simon!

Hey. Hi...there.

- [chuckles] Sorry we didn't talk earlier.

- Mm. - I was in my own world. Uh...

Jessica and I broke up.

- [gasps, whispers] No way! Seriously?

- That's a terrible surprised face.

Well, I just wanted you to know.

Wasn't your fault. Jessica and I

had some issues we couldn't resolve.

We fought all the time, starting way before you and I met.

And at the end of the day,

we just wanted the other person to be happier.

- I'm sure that was really difficult,

and I want you to know

there's zero expectations on my end

and take as much time as you need.

- You wanna have dinner tonight? - It's not too soon?

- No, I think it'd be good

for us to sit down and really discuss stuff.

Plus, I just moved into my new place,

love for you to see it.

- Wow, okay, so, uh...

Just you and me at your new apartment?

- Is that okay?

- Uh, sure, why not?

- Great. See you tonight.

- Mo, guess what?

I must've played it real cool

'cause Simon and I are having dinner tonight

at his new apartment alone.

How about that--

[guitar riff plays]

You think he's hooking up with Ava Price?

- Why would you say that?

- Because sleeping with the boss is the fastest way

to career advancement. Everyone knows that.

I mean, I'd sleep with Joan if I--

No "if." I'd sleep with Joan.

- [extremely high voice] I mean, I don't think...

[regular voice] sleeping with the boss helps at all.

You know, 'cause theoretically, the last thing a superior

would want is to seem like they're playing favorites

- Leif, stop talking.

Okay, I just got off the phone

with Danny Michael Davis who is looking for a progress report

on The Chirp, so where are we?

Better be someplace good.

- I'm optimizing this algorithm for real-time feedback.

- Okay, real-time feedback: you're doing a bad job.

- I've designed a data compression function

to speed up the auditory relay. - Okay.

Let's speed up our fingers on the keyboard,

and get this done.

for one of my famous inspirational speeches.

You guys suck.

- Yes? - I know that you said that

your relationship with Leif was purely casual,

but...he is madly in love with you.

- What do you mean? That's terrible news.

H-h-how do you know? What did he say?

What were his words exactly?

- Well, from what I gathered, he...

is in it for the long haul. Happy, sad, good, bad.

- Oh, God. - I want you to be careful

because I know that workplace romances

can get a little dicey.

- Sorry to interrupt. Um...

I'm running out. Is 8:00 okay?

- Yeah, sure.

Works for me.

Uh, and I just want you to protect yourself,

'cause you're his boss, and...

[whispers] hell hath no fury like a Leif scorned.

- Hi.

- Hi. - Ooh.

[whispers] I'll let myself out.

- Hi. Um... I think we need to have a--

um, a heart-to-heart. - Yeah, I'd love to.

But first, before we get to that,

all of Max's files for The Chirp have been deleted off the Git,

and we can't run the next phase without his DSP.

- Okay, well, go up to the 6th floor and get them.

- No problem. Um...

It's just, I'd need an access card,

and you're the only one who has it,

and, I don't know, I thought we'd, like, go together.

- No. No, no. Can't-- can't--can't do it together.

D-definitely not, but, um, here, I've gotta work,

and y-you have your whole life ahead of you.

Okay? - Uh--

- Dude, thanks so much for letting me come with.

I've always wanted to come up here,

ever since they told me I wasn't allowed to come up here.

- Uh, dude, we're kind of on a mission.

- Let me touch it again.

What? They get a giant seafood tower,

and we get an oatmeal bar?

I'll be right back.

- Leif, what are you doing here?

- Well, we can't work on The Chirp

because your config files aren't in the Git repository anymore.

- That's weird.

Must be for security reasons.

- Aren't you one of Joan's programmers?

- Yes, Ms. Price. Leif Donnelly.

Joan's best programmer.

I'm just here to retrieve Max's files on The Chirp.

- Oh, The Chirp. How's that going?

- Incredible, actually.

- Incredible in what way?

- In every way. The Chirp is going to have

a state-of-the-art user interface,

amazing data visualizations.

We're just scratching the surface

of what it's truly capable of, and it could be

the defining technology... [outgoing message tone]

of the next decade.

Max, the files? [cell phone chimes]

- Don't give it to him, Max.

- Why not? - Because he just reminded me

how impressive The Chirp is, so I texted Danny Michael Davis

and convinced him to let Floor 6 work on it as well.

- You texted him while we were talking?

And he's letting your floor work on it as well?

That's, um--that sounds like-- - That's right.

It's a bake-off, people!

[all cheer]

You're forbidden from giving those files to Leif

or anyone else on the 4th floor.

- Okay. - Dude, what just happened?

[knocking]

- Wow, you look nice. - Thanks.

I brought you a fern,

because I have no idea what's appropriate right now

and I thought it seemed delightfully neutral.

- Hmm. [chuckles]

- Not bad.

- Well, all the apartments here are pre-furnished.

That's why all my neighbors are widowers and divorcées.

I do get a lot of nods of understanding and hugs.

Do you want a glass of wine?

- Love a glass of wine.

[wine pouring]

- [exhales] To looking forward.

- To looking forward. [classes clink]

So...

Here we are.

- Yeah, we sure are.

I have a teeny bit of bad news.

- Then I'll only be a teeny bit worried?

I couldn't find my pasta strainer

so I think I'm gonna have to use the tennis racquet method.

- Isn't that the best way to serve?

- Ooh. Mmm. Yeah. - Sorry.

- I'll be right back.

You make yourself at home with these magazines

that came with the apartment. [clicks tongue]

Hey, the spaghetti's gonna take a few more minutes.

- I think I should go.

- But why?

- I...just...

I don't think tonight's the right night

for us to hang out.

- Did I do something wrong?

- I thought you were ready for something new

but you are just singing the same old song.

- If it was "True Colors," maybe,

but why did it have to be "Mad World"?

- Because it is a mad world.

- Don't you get it, Mo?

After everything we've been through,

all the emotional ground we've covered,

it really seemed like Simon was finally in a good place.

But nothing's changed.

He's exactly how he was when we first met.

- Look, we tried, but if you ask me

that boy has been nothing but drama since minute one.

So I think it's high time you get off the Simon train

and get on with your life.

- Or I double down and I help him even more.

- [laughs] That's funny.

And you're not joking.

- I can't desert him, Mo. He needs me.

- You know what? I don't need this.

- What are you talking about? - It is emotionally exhausting

watching you bend over backwards and forwards

again and again for a man-child

who's clearly unavailable for anything,

so no, I am not about to help you unravel this mess.

- Fine! Don't help me!

I'll unravel it myself.

[doors slam loudly]

- Normally people at least try my cooking

before they run off like that.

- I see you. I hear you.

I'm not saying I handled it well.

- Care to tell me what was going on there?

- Well, you know that thing about

how I just know how to read you?

- [chuckles quietly] - I could tell that

you weren't in a place to focus on us last night.

- You could tell that, huh? - I could.

- I thought I was covering it pretty well.

- You weren't.

- I really wanted it to be a nice night.

But right before you came over,

my mom called, out of the blue.

- I don't think you've ever mentioned her before.

- We don't talk much lately.

Anyway, she called to tell me that she's getting remarried.

This weekend, in Vegas, and she wants me to come.

- And I'm guessing you're not very happy

for the blushing bride.

- I know she's not responsible for my father killing himself,

but I'm not sure she was helping matters either.

Their marriage was rough,

but she wasn't very supportive

during some of his darker moments

and now, just like that, she's moving on.

I feel like I should be defending my dad

or sticking up for him or something.

I don't know if I'm upset or angry.

- Or just totally stuck?

I don't mean to be insensitive.

It just feels like we have been covering this terrain

for a long time now, and--

- Suddenly there's a time limit on grieving.

- Zoey, walk with me.

- I'm in the middle-- - It's okay, it can wait.

- What's wrong? Did things go bad with Leif?

- It's not about that. I sent Leif up to the 6th floor

to get the files back from Max,

and now we've been dragged into a bake-off.

- A bake-off? - Yes. The first team

to get a working prototype to Danny Michael Davis

wins stock options, bonuses-- - All the best assignments.

- Access to Danny's underground compound

in the case of nuclear war.

We have gotta get those files back from Max.

- Well, why won't he just give them to us?

We worked on the DSP together.

- [scoffs] Well, clearly,

because Ava's got her hooks in him.

How did she lure him away? - There was no luring.

Ava wanted him, he wanted to go, I said okay.

- We didn't sign anything, right? No transfer paperwork?

- No. - Okay, we have gotta get

those files back from Max.

- Can I come too? Please?

- I need my access card.

- Yo, you guys, there's gonna be a smackdown on the 6th floor!

Let's go!

- Max, you're coming with us.

- No, he's staying right here. - What's going on?

- You didn't apply for a transfer, Ava.

Max doesn't belong to you.

- He doesn't belong to anyone.

Max came upstairs because we value him.

He wants to work with us.

- Well, he was with us first,

and you only recruited him because of his Chirp files.

- The fact that Max's work proved pivotal in the project

was a happy accident and only reinforces the fact

that I have an eye for talent.

- Okay, you're not Simon Cowell.

Uh, give him back.

- He's not going anywhere.

- Whoa, guys, guys, please!

Doesn't anybody care about what I think?

This is my code.

Which floor I work on and where I bring it

should probably be my decision.

- I agree with Max. - [scoffs] Oh, well.

It's not really up to you guys.

- Then again, I would hate

for an employee of mine to be unhappy.

So, Max, please, tell us what you would like.

- Yes, tell us.

- Well, uh, to be honest, my first instinct

was to go back to the 4th floor and give them the code

since that's where it originated.

- That's great, Maxie.

Follow your instinct. I taught him that.

- But then I realized that

nobody ever really wanted me there.

When I was deciding whether or not to say,

not one single person from the 4th floor fought to keep me.

Until of course they all needed something from me,

which is why me and my code

are gonna stay right here on Floor 6.

[employees chuckling]

- Oh, well.

- Okay, go, go. - How did they all get in here?

[laughter]

- Why aren't you eating anything?

- I'm not hungry.

- Hmm.

- Mo and I are fighting,

Max is being a total jerk, and I am so frustrated

with Simon and his daddy issues. I can't take it anymore.

- And don't forget you yelled at Michele, too.

- Michele was wrong.

He could've handled it better and he knows it.

- Well, honey, have you thought about

maybe getting a massage

or taking something to calm you down?

I have been growing a special plant--

- I'm fine.

People can just be infuriating sometimes.

At least you got your anniversary dinner

back on track. That's good news, right?

- I know, it's great.

Gonna maybe make up for the mess I made last year.

- What happened last year?

- On the way to the restaurant,

I got speeding ticket.

'Cause we were running late and I was rushing,

and I just let it ruin the whole evening.

I'd assumed that next year would be better.

How could I have known?

Anyway, I would really like to have

just one more lovely night there after all these years.

[coughing, plates rattling]

Mitch? Honey?

[coughing worsens]

- He's aspirating pretty bad.

It's getting harder and harder for him to swallow.

He only had a few spoonfuls of soup.

- Howie, could you go get some paper towels

and help me clean him up? - [coughs]

- Sweetheart, oh, love.

We can't go to that restaurant.

- [Mitch grunts, breathes]

[keys clacking]

- Well, we're the last ones here.

Want to play "Me Tarzan, You Joan"?

- [chuckles] Oh, I need to talk to you.

- Uh, yeah, what's up? Are you still angry

about the whole bake-off thing?

- Uch, yes. Furious. No, but it's....[chuckles]

this other crazy thing. [inhales, exhales]

Zoey seems to think you're in love with me.

[laughs] Isn't that a riot?

- God, I mean, how does she-- how did she do that?

'Cause she always knows exactly what's going on in my head

and I don't know if she's watching my vlog or something,

'cause that's password protected.

- No, no, Leif.

We agreed this was light and fun.

- All right, things change. People change.

I wouldn't be caught dead

wearing a cardigan I wore two years ago.

- But you kept that one?

Look, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry,

but this can't happen, and it's over.

- Is something wrong, sir? You lost?

- Just forgot my lumbar support.

- I hate to break it to you, but your lumbar support

is actually 4th floor property. - That's very funny.

- Okay, you can have it.

But you should know...

what you did yesterday was really rough.

- I was just taking care of me. Wasn't personal.

- When I told you about my powers, I also told you

that I was gonna be 100% honest with you.

Do you remember that? - Mm-hmm.

- Okay, so here's the truth:

I think it is personal.

I think that you're mad at me.

You are mad at me for not saying what you wanted to hear,

and now you're trying to teach me some kind of lesson.

- Oh, is that what you think? - That's what I think.

Why else would you have taken the 6th floor's side?

You've been there for a whopping two days!

- I don't know, maybe because

people actually like me on the 6th floor.

Do you know that Ava has said more to me

in those two days than Joan has in the last five years?

Oh, and it's also a huge opportunity

for me and my career. Have you ever thought about that?

- So you're just gonna leave behind

everybody that helped you get there? Is that the idea?

- See it how you want to see it.

- Nobody down here understands why Ava wanted you

in the first place. Just FYI.

- Maybe it's 'cause I'm a good person.

- Or a very selfish one.

- You are calling me selfish?

Look, I have spent far too much time

worrying about other people's happiness more than my own,

especially yours.

And I think that it's finally time

I focus on my own happiness for a change. So...

- Hey, Dad.

Dad?

- [breathes loudly]

- Are you with me?

Maybe hit your buzzer once if you are.

[mouse clatters]

Okay, how about blinking?

- [exhales] - Can you just blink?

Once, if you're here right now?

Okay, yeah.

That seemed like it took a lot of energy.

Let's not do that again.

Um, but...and I'm just floating this out there, but,

if you wanted to sing me a heart song,

I'd really love to know what's going on with you.

Howie! Is something going on with my dad?

- We've had a couple of rough nights, so,

I gave him a sedative.

- You what?

How are we supposed to communicate with him?

I don't have much time left with my father.

Why would you purposely

make him more out of it than he already is?

- Your mom and I thought he could use a good night's sleep.

- And rob him of some of the last moments of clarity?

If he could communicate with me right now I could help him!

But you made that impossible! It's stupid!

Why would you give him a sedative?!

- Could I speak to you privately for a moment?

We do not speak to people that way in our house.

- Maybe we should!

I am tired of everyone acting so...

sweet and polite all the time!

- There is nothing wrong with being polite.

- Okay, I'm leaving.

[knocking]

- Are you okay? You sounded really upset on the phone.

How can I help? I'm--oh.

Wait, uh, what is happening?

- I don't want to talk.

Lord knows we've done enough talking.

Mm-mmm. Mm-mmm. Last time we spoke,

you said that I was stuck

and I needed to get over it or something like that.

- Yeah, but Joan pulled me away

before I got to the "get over it" part.

- Well, Joan isn't here now, okay?

Just finish your thoughts.

- You really want me to? - Yeah. Go for it.

- Okay.

This endless grieving of yours,

it's boring.

- What the hell does that even mean?

- It means, aren't you tired of it?

Come on, you must be tired of it.

You've been carrying around this weight

for months and months.

Isn't it time you just...

stopped licking your wounds and move on?

- You haven't a clue what it means to lose someone.

Your father is still here. He isn't gone yet.

How dare you even judge my grief?

- I'm just saying it already cost you one relationship.

How many more of us are you gonna bring down with you?

- You think you're so perfect, Zoey?

- I don't think I'm perfect.

- You must think you're perfect.

You're the one that has a trail of destruction

following you everywhere you go.

Matter of fact, word on the street

is that your best friend moved to the 6th floor

because even he couldn't deal with you anymore.

- Or maybe he might just be "looking forward."

All you do is look back! You're a faker, Simon!

You're not happy! You act like you're so happy!

You can't even be happy for your own mother!

- Okay, I don't know who this person is

that I'm talking to right now,

but I don't like her at all.

- Why, because she's telling you things

that you don't want to hear? - No!

Because you invited me here, then you started

making out with me, then you started ambushing me!

That's some weird, hostile, manipulative crap,

and I'm not just gonna stand here all night and take it!

- Great.

Great, great, great, at least you're finally being dec--

- [loudly] Enough!

You two, come with me. Now.

I said, come on!

- How did you hear us fighting?

- Child, they heard you in Oakland.

Now listen to me. We're going to do

the only rational thing there is to do at this moment,

and I don't want to see you two holding back

or marking, do you hear me?

- [exhales] - Feeling any better?

- I'm exhausted!

And exhilarated and thoroughly depleted.

So...yeah.

- All right.

We said some things to each other earlier,

things I wish we hadn't said.

- I agree. I'm sorry.

I don't know where it's coming from, I'm just--

- Madder than you've ever been before?

And it scares you how right-below-the-surface

all this rage is?

And you feel like you have no control over any of it.

- Yeah. - Maybe you're not

the only one that can read people, Zoey.

Or, you're super angry right now,

and it's one of the textbook stages of grief.

And you're furious about what's going on with your dad,

and you're lashing out at whoever's in striking distance.

- I screamed at a poor maître d'

and our family's sweet caregiver.

- Day after my dad died, I made a Girl Scout cry

because she ran out of Samoas.

- Oh, that's bad, too. - I know.

Anyway, the anger will dissipate.

Or you'll just channel it to something else.

- Like from your dad to your mom?

- You're right.

I'm not angry at my mom.

I'm jealous of her.

She moved past the pain, and the grief.

She found the joy.

I want that, too.

- Then go after it.

Maybe it's not as far away as you think.

- [sighs] I don't know.

You have no idea how much I want this, too.

But not like this.

You deserve someone who can be fully present

and give you everything.

Can you be patient with me?

- I've waited this long, haven't I?

- [chuckles] In that case,

I am going to go to Vegas,

gonna see my mom marry a dude

that I've never met before,

and hopefully some of their joy rubs off on me.

- Well, if it doesn't,

you should go to one of those medieval shows,

because jousting and giant turkey legs

always bring me joy.

[ beep ]

- Hey.

Max. - How are you?

- Hey...

is there any room for a new coder on the 6th floor?

- Who'd you have in mind?

- Me.

I could be very helpful with creating

a new working prototype for The Chirp.

I mean, it was my idea, after all.

[elevator dings]

- Go on. I'm listening.

- Zoey. What, are you playing hooky?

- I'm taking the day off to spend

some quality time with my family,

and to grovel for talking to you the way I did.

- It's okay. One of the hazards of the job,

and at least you were nice enough not to throw anything.

I'll spare showing you the scars.

- Happy anniversary! - Thank you.

- So, I'm here.

Do we want to do anything special today?

- Um, I think we're just gonna hang out on the couch

and watch some of our old favorite movies.

- And for dinner?

- We're just gonna heat up some leftovers.

It's fine.

- Can you help me with something?

- Looking sharp, my friend.

You ready? - [grunts quietly]

[piano music plays]

- Hi, honey.

We were able to get our favorite table after all.
