00:00:39,883 --> 00:00:42,886
Hey, ladies. I'm sorry. The audience is full for today.
6
00:00:43,762 --> 00:00:44,972
Please come back tomorrow.

Did you get the sodium chloride?
11
00:00:54,773 --> 00:00:56,900
- Of course.
- Roma or San Marzano?
12
00:00:57,526 --> 00:00:59,069
Roma. Thank you, James.
13
00:00:59,945 --> 00:01:01,405
You never answered my question...
14
00:01:01,405 --> 00:01:03,907
about the Presto sponsorship.
And I know how you feel about...
15
00:01:03,907 --> 00:01:05,993
I will start the show with it, Walter.
16
00:01:05,993 --> 00:01:07,953
Really? You're not just saying that?
17
00:01:07,953 --> 00:01:09,872
Oh, good Lord. Thank you.
18
00:01:09,872 --> 00:01:11,623
Uh, cans are on the counter.
19
00:01:11,623 --> 00:01:14,918
Don't forget to smile from time to time. Have a great show. Bye.
20
00:01:14,918 --> 00:01:17,045
21
00:01:17,045 --> 00:01:20,340
- What kind of salt did she want?
- Uniodized. I went with kosher.
22
00:01:21,925 --> 00:01:22,926
Oh.
23
00:01:24,595 --> 00:01:27,264
It's all gotta be perfect. Labels out.
24
00:01:27,765 --> 00:01:30,476
Uh, it's all in the cue cards.
25
00:01:30,476 --> 00:01:32,352
- Oh, don't worry, Walter.
- She's got it.
26
00:01:32,352 --> 00:01:35,022
Welcome, ladies. The show's about to start.
27
00:01:35,022 --> 00:01:38,358
Big smiles. Energy. Happy.
28
00:01:39,026 --> 00:01:41,028
Energy. Big smiles. All of you.

My name is Elizabeth Zott, and this is Supper at Six.

00:01:53,791 --> 00:01:56,502
34
00:01:57,086 --> 00:01:58,087
See this?
35
00:02:01,507 --> 00:02:04,718
Presto Soups. Cooks so quick, it's done in a presto.
36
00:02:05,803 --> 00:02:08,221
- That's my line.
- It is a real time-saver.
37
00:02:08,581 --> 00:02:11,626
And that's because it's full of chemicals. And not the good kind.
38
00:02:11,975 --> 00:02:14,019
- Hmm?
- There will be a surprise indeed.
39
00:02:14,019 --> 00:02:16,105
Feed enough of it to your loved ones, and they'll die off,...
40
00:02:16,105 --> 00:02:17,606
saving you tons of time...
41
00:02:17,606 --> 00:02:19,233
because you won't have to feed them anymore.
42

but we will be testing a new variable.
45
00:02:32,117 --> 00:02:34,456
Caring for loved ones takes work.
46
00:02:34,456 --> 00:02:35,624
Real work.
47
00:02:35,624 --> 00:02:37,584
Anyone who tells you differently does not cook dinner...
48
00:02:37,584 --> 00:02:39,336
for a family of five every night.
49
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:43,382
So let's make something hearty. Let's make something delicious.
50
00:02:43,382 --> 00:02:45,843
Let's make something that keeps our family alive
51
00:02:45,843 --> 00:02:47,636
and gives us leftovers for a week.
52
00:02:48,512 --> 00:02:50,013

Miss Zott? Miss Zott?
63
00:05:16,285 --> 00:05:17,703
Good morning, Miss Frask.
64
00:05:17,703 --> 00:05:20,205
I hope you'll sign up for the Little Miss Hastings Pageant.
65
00:05:20,205 --> 00:05:22,583
Uh, you know, your lab is in between secretaries,...
66
00:05:22,583 --> 00:05:24,460
and your fellas really could use a contestant.
67
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:25,753
I am not a secretary.
68
00:05:27,004 --> 00:05:29,173
Well, you know, lab techs can participate too.
69
00:05:29,173 --> 00:05:30,758
It's any female support staff.
70
00:05:30,758 --> 00:05:33,427
Thank you, but pageants are not my idea of fun.
71
00:05:33,427 --> 00:05:36,346
Oh. What... What is?
72
00:05:36,346 --> 00:05:39,600
Hmm. Well, I have recently become fascinated by archaebacteria,...
73
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,735
whose cell membranes are ether-link...
74
00:05:41,745 --> 00:05:43,270
foster lipids as opposed to bacteria,...
75
00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:45,731
whose cell membrane are ester-link foster lipids.
76
00:05:46,231 --> 00:05:47,581
I also like to cook.
77
00:05:48,192 --> 00:05:49,985
Let me know if you change your mind.
78
00:05:49,985 --> 00:05:51,070
I won't, but thank you.
79
00:05:51,070 --> 00:05:52,488
Now, if you don't mind,...
80
00:05:52,488 --> 00:05:54,573
I have a lot to clean up before the chemists arrive.
81
00:05:55,115 --> 00:05:56,700
I'm gonna put you down as a "maybe".

I'm not to be disturbed!

Dr. Evans? It's Dr. Donatti.
87
00:06:28,982 --> 00:06:30,262
One minute.
88
00:06:33,779 --> 00:06:35,114
You're not dressed.
89
00:06:35,114 --> 00:06:38,075
Uh, well, in some cultures, I would be considered overdressed.
90
00:06:38,075 --> 00:06:39,159
91
00:06:39,159 --> 00:06:40,994
You missed our monthly board meeting again.
92
00:06:40,994 --> 00:06:43,539
Because I've been hard at work.
93
00:06:44,039 --> 00:06:46,333
Everyone is anxiously awaiting your results.
94
00:06:46,333 --> 00:06:47,918
And everyone will have to wait.
95
00:06:48,419 --> 00:06:50,796
You will be ready to submit your proposal...
96
00:06:50,796 --> 00:06:52,965
for the Remsen Foundation grant, right?
97
00:06:52,965 --> 00:06:56,009
Because those grants keep the lights on around here.
98
00:06:56,009 --> 00:06:58,303
I can think of a few lights that would be best left off.
99
00:06:58,303 --> 00:07:00,806
Now, if you and your foot will please excuse me.
100
00:07:01,807 --> 00:07:04,435
You do understand that I'm your boss, right?
101
00:07:05,310 --> 00:07:06,311
Fire me.
102
00:07:09,356 --> 00:07:10,941
Honey, can you clean this up for me?
103
00:07:10,941 --> 00:07:12,735
And bring me those beakers I asked for?
104
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,612
Oh, and, sweetheart, I could use another cup of joe...
105
00:07:15,612 --> 00:07:16,822
when you're done with that.
106
00:07:16,822 --> 00:07:19,283
It'll be a few minutes. You could go to the cafeteria.
107
00:07:19,283 --> 00:07:21,410
But it's not your special beaker brew.
108
00:07:21,410 --> 00:07:23,078
Zott?
109
00:07:23,078 --> 00:07:24,538
Yes, Dr. Powers?
110
00:07:25,038 --> 00:07:27,332
I've run it three times. What am I missing?
111
00:07:27,332 --> 00:07:30,794
You're not seeing conversion of the carbonyl group into an imine group.
112
00:07:30,794 --> 00:07:32,629
Right, I just...
113
00:07:32,629 --> 00:07:34,339
You forgot the acid catalyst.
114
00:07:34,339 --> 00:07:37,009
Thanks. I got it.
115
00:07:37,009 --> 00:07:39,011
Gentlemen, can you believe this shit?
116
00:07:40,054 --> 00:07:41,096
I don't get it.
117
00:07:41,096 --> 00:07:43,098
What does Evans have that any of us don't have?
118
00:07:43,098 --> 00:07:45,350
He's a shoo-in for the Nobel.
119
00:07:45,350 --> 00:07:47,352
The Nobel Prize is overrated.
120
00:07:47,352 --> 00:07:51,106
It says, "Calvin Evans is the Richard Feynman of chemistry".
121
00:07:51,106 --> 00:07:53,607
Doesn't give him an excuse to hoard all our supplies.
122
00:07:53,618 --> 00:07:56,195
How much ribose does one guy need?
123
00:07:56,195 --> 00:07:57,863
Well, Evans better watch his back...
124
00:07:57,863 --> 00:08:01,325
because young Boryweitz is coming for his grant this year.
125
00:08:01,325 --> 00:08:02,993
Good luck with that, buddy.
126
00:08:02,993 --> 00:08:05,662
Looks like it's a rip-off of Vauquelin's research.
127
00:08:05,662 --> 00:08:08,290
- I'm building on his work.
- Hmm. An homage.
128
00:08:08,290 --> 00:08:11,043
From 1806.
129
00:08:11,043 --> 00:08:12,878

130
00:08:12,878 --> 00:08:16,423
the Little Miss Hastings Pageant.
131
00:08:16,423 --> 00:08:18,300
- Right.
- Well, that is unless, uh,...
132
00:08:18,300 --> 00:08:22,513
- Zott here decides to enter. Huh, boys?
- Come on, sweetie. Huh?
133
00:08:22,513 --> 00:08:24,807
Was it something I said?
134
00:08:24,807 --> 00:08:26,892
135
00:08:43,367 --> 00:08:45,452
- So I said to Robert...
- Fran now calls him Robert.
136
00:08:45,452 --> 00:08:47,579
I said to Dr. Donatti that, you know,...
137
00:08:47,579 --> 00:08:49,421
this pageant needs to be sophisticated,...
138
00:08:49,431 --> 00:08:51,100
needs to be elevated. It needs pizzazz.
139
00:08:51,111 --> 00:08:52,907
What it needs is an open bar.
140
00:08:52,918 --> 00:08:54,920
- I'm not a miracle worker.
- Yes, you are.
141
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,422
Well, you know what? I might be.
142
00:08:56,422 --> 00:08:59,341
Because, um, I'm excited to say that he agreed...
143
00:08:59,341 --> 00:09:00,759
to an evening gown category,...
144
00:09:00,759 --> 00:09:03,929

00:09:03,929 --> 00:09:05,097

any man survive on that?
148
00:09:10,436 --> 00:09:11,937
And he runs.
149
00:09:11,937 --> 00:09:13,021
Runs where?
150
00:09:13,856 --> 00:09:16,442
He just runs to run. He's very peculiar.
151
00:09:16,442 --> 00:09:18,527
And he never talks to anyone.
152
00:09:29,371 --> 00:09:33,041
153
00:09:38,130 --> 00:09:40,385
Hey. Donatti put a freeze on overtime.
154
00:09:40,395 --> 00:09:42,426
So don't stay too late, or it's my tail.
155
00:09:42,426 --> 00:09:44,261
- I'm right behind you.
- Okay.
156
00:10:17,169 --> 00:10:18,170
Shit.
157
00:10:41,235 --> 00:10:42,319
158
00:11:45,507 --> 00:11:48,427
159
00:12:02,608 --> 00:12:08,030
Miss Zott, I supervise over a hundred of the country's finest chemists,...
160
00:12:08,030 --> 00:12:10,783
who in turn generate groundbreaking work.
161
00:12:11,658 --> 00:12:15,370
They use equipment worth thousands
of dollars to generate said work.
162
00:12:15,370 --> 00:12:19,750
And so when I hear that a lab tech is using our equipment...
163
00:12:19,750 --> 00:12:24,755
after hours without proper supervision, it gives me pause.
164
00:12:25,631 --> 00:12:29,384
Sir, I can explain. I have my master's in chemistry from UCLA,...
165
00:12:29,384 --> 00:12:32,513
where I studied cellular metabolism of nucleic acids.
166
00:12:32,899 --> 00:12:35,495
With all that said, I have been working...
167
00:12:35,505 --> 00:12:37,351
in my off-hours, never on the clock,...
168
00:12:37,351 --> 00:12:40,012
conducting my own experiments on abiogenesis.
169
00:12:40,023 --> 00:12:43,195
I am synthesizing simple, small molecules...
170
00:12:43,205 --> 00:12:45,245
into nucleotides and nucleic acids.
171
00:12:45,256 --> 00:12:48,509
My research is very promising, and I intend to submit for the Remsen.
172
00:12:49,113 --> 00:12:52,282
Young lady, setting aside the fact that you're using lab equipment...
173
00:12:52,282 --> 00:12:54,284
without proper supervision of a chemist...
174
00:12:54,284 --> 00:12:55,577
I am a chemist.
175
00:12:55,577 --> 00:12:57,538
Our chemists have PhDs.
176
00:12:58,580 --> 00:13:01,708
I could never put the Hastings name on the submission of a lab tech...
177
00:13:01,708 --> 00:13:05,045
that's proudly waving around her master's from UCLA.
178
00:13:05,045 --> 00:13:06,922
- I was top of my class...
- Miss Zott...
179
00:13:06,922 --> 00:13:08,424
... and the work will speak for itself.
180
00:13:08,424 --> 00:13:10,217
You are just not smart enough.
181
00:13:12,761 --> 00:13:14,430
Miss Zott, I wasn't finished.
182
00:13:14,930 --> 00:13:17,474
What's this I hear about you not participating...
183
00:13:17,474 --> 00:13:19,184
in the Little Miss Hastings Pageant?
184
00:13:19,768 --> 00:13:21,520
I wasn't aware that it was compulsory.
185
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:22,980
It is not compulsory.
186
00:13:23,772 --> 00:13:25,733
It is part of the culture here.
187
00:13:26,038 --> 00:13:28,902
I would suggest that you find yourself...
188
00:13:28,902 --> 00:13:30,904
a little more of the Hastings spirit,...
189
00:13:30,904 --> 00:13:33,212
if you'd like to keep your employment here.
190
00:13:34,533 --> 00:13:35,576
Now you may go.
191
00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:43,000
A smile once in a while wouldn't kill you.
192
00:13:44,126 --> 00:13:46,211
193
00:13:47,254 --> 00:13:48,255
Miss Zott.
194
00:13:49,923 --> 00:13:50,924
[CLEARS THROAT]
195
00:13:51,425 --> 00:13:52,551
Miss Zott?
196
00:13:52,551 --> 00:13:54,428
I hear you're joining us for the pageant.
197
00:13:54,428 --> 00:13:57,097
- How did you...
- So glad you had a change of heart.
198
00:13:57,097 --> 00:13:59,058
So I don't know if you've heard,...
199
00:13:59,058 --> 00:14:01,560
but there's an evening gown category this year.
200
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:04,063
And also bikinis aren't mandatory.
201
00:14:04,063 --> 00:14:07,107
Feel free to wear a one-piece, if that makes you feel more comfortable.
202
00:14:07,107 --> 00:14:09,485
Uh, is now a good time for a photo?
203
00:14:09,985 --> 00:14:11,737
Smile.
204
00:14:16,492 --> 00:14:20,662
Ah, there she is. The thief.
205
00:14:21,163 --> 00:14:22,331
I beg your pardon?
206
00:14:23,590 --> 00:14:25,299
I have been through every department,...
207
00:14:25,309 --> 00:14:27,336
interrogated dozens of chemists...
208
00:14:27,336 --> 00:14:29,421
including ones from this very lab...
209
00:14:29,421 --> 00:14:33,425
who said that you, Miss Zott, have a history of ruffling feathers.
210
00:14:33,926 --> 00:14:35,094
And perhaps more relevant,...
211
00:14:35,094 --> 00:14:37,429
have an arrogant attitude of self-importance.
212
00:14:37,429 --> 00:14:38,764
Have you heard yourself speak?
213
00:14:38,764 --> 00:14:40,599
Oh. So you don't... you don't deny it?
214
00:14:41,475 --> 00:14:43,310
What would a secretary even have to do with ribose...
215
00:14:43,310 --> 00:14:44,978
aside from sell it on the black market?
216
00:14:45,562 --> 00:14:49,691
- I am a chemist.
- Oh. And a fibber to boot.
217
00:14:50,734 --> 00:14:52,356
Oh, yes. Because there's such high demand...
218
00:14:52,366 --> 00:14:53,904
on the black market for monosaccharide!
219
00:14:53,904 --> 00:14:57,449
This is very disappointing! Very... I'm disappointed.
220
00:14:59,159 --> 00:15:01,120
One: My lab was unlocked last night,...
221
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,975
so I want someone to speak to janitorial...
222
00:15:02,985 --> 00:15:04,957
and have new locks placed on the door.
223
00:15:05,016 --> 00:15:08,019
Two: I have calculated the cost of the missing ribose,...
224
00:15:08,669 --> 00:15:11,130
and I wanna make it clear, that will not be coming out of my budget.
225
00:15:11,130 --> 00:15:13,340
Three: I want my floors sterilized.
226
00:15:13,340 --> 00:15:16,051
At least one person entered without my authorization.
227
00:15:16,051 --> 00:15:19,638
And with my allergies, I cannot risk any contaminants. You understand?
228
00:15:19,638 --> 00:15:21,098
I'll take care of it, Dr. Evans.
229
00:15:21,098 --> 00:15:24,059
And lastly, I would like the secretary responsible held accountable.
230
00:15:24,059 --> 00:15:25,352
I'll have her fired.
231
00:15:25,352 --> 00:15:28,689
Well, just a formal reprimand will suffice.
232
00:15:28,689 --> 00:15:32,109
I'm shocked that it was one of my secretaries, honestly.
233
00:15:32,109 --> 00:15:34,153
- You said it was in the aminos lab?
- Mm-hmm.
234
00:15:34,153 --> 00:15:35,487
So that's Mary Ann Rogers.
235
00:15:35,487 --> 00:15:36,613
No. No, no, no.
236
00:15:36,613 --> 00:15:38,282
Her name was Elizabeth Zott.
237
00:15:38,282 --> 00:15:41,493
Oh. She's not a secretary. She's a lab tech.
238
00:15:41,493 --> 00:15:44,705
Miss Zott should know better. She has her master's.
239
00:15:44,705 --> 00:15:47,332
- Her master's? In what?
- Chemistry.
240
00:15:50,169 --> 00:15:52,588
Will you be joining us for the Little Miss Hastings Pageant this year?
241
00:15:52,588 --> 00:15:55,424
'Cause it would mean a lot to company morale to see you there.
242
00:16:06,060 --> 00:16:07,061
Hmm.
243
00:16:11,940 --> 00:16:13,400
244
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,368
245
00:16:27,539 --> 00:16:28,540
246
00:16:30,417 --> 00:16:33,712
Evans? Did not expect to see you here.
247
00:16:33,712 --> 00:16:35,756
- Right.
- It's like seeing Halley's Comet.
248
00:16:35,756 --> 00:16:37,716
Come have a drink with me and the fellas, huh?
249
00:16:37,716 --> 00:16:39,009
Or no one will believe me.
250
00:16:39,635 --> 00:16:43,055
- What's your poison?
- Uh, cyanide or aflatoxin.
251
00:16:43,055 --> 00:16:46,141
You're too much, huh?
252
00:16:46,141 --> 00:16:48,018
Boys, say hi to the guy right here.
253
00:16:48,018 --> 00:16:50,354
- The man, the myth, the legend.
- [DR. POWERS] Anthony Powers. Hi.
254
00:16:50,354 --> 00:16:52,564
Mr. Remsen himself, I guess, huh?
255
00:16:53,148 --> 00:16:54,858
What are you working on right now?
256
00:16:55,526 --> 00:16:58,695
Elizabeth. Hi. There you are.
257
00:16:58,695 --> 00:17:02,658
Come follow me. Come stand with us pageant girls.
258
00:17:02,658 --> 00:17:04,076
- You look great.
- Thank you.
259
00:17:04,076 --> 00:17:06,869
- It took me forever to get ready today.
- Hmm.
260
00:17:06,869 --> 00:17:08,872
- Girls, Elizabeth's here.
- Hello.
261
00:17:08,872 --> 00:17:10,791
I'll be right back.
262
00:17:10,791 --> 00:17:13,502
The, uh, Swedish meatballs are running a bit low.
263
00:17:13,502 --> 00:17:15,128
They're a real hit.
264
00:17:15,628 --> 00:17:17,714
[SIGHS] Fran did such a great job.
265
00:17:17,714 --> 00:17:19,174
- So great.
- Mm-hmm.
266
00:17:19,174 --> 00:17:22,094
I love your scent. What is that?
267
00:17:22,094 --> 00:17:25,638
Oh. Black currant berries with floral tones of roses.
268
00:17:25,638 --> 00:17:29,017
- I'm a classic kind of girl. Chanel No. 5.
- Mmm.
269
00:17:29,017 --> 00:17:30,519
Elizabeth, what scent do you wear?
270
00:17:31,103 --> 00:17:32,798
Oh, I... I don't.
271
00:17:32,808 --> 00:17:35,441
In the lab, your sense of smell alerts you to potential dangers.
272
00:17:35,441 --> 00:17:38,235
And I'm already at a deficit due to a hydrochloric acid accident...
273
00:17:38,235 --> 00:17:39,570
when I was an undergrad.
274
00:17:39,570 --> 00:17:41,655
I singed most of the cilia in my nostrils,...
275
00:17:41,655 --> 00:17:43,949
but thankfully they restored themselves over time.
276
00:17:44,533 --> 00:17:46,118
So I'm not taking any more chances.
277
00:17:48,287 --> 00:17:49,329
278
00:17:49,329 --> 00:17:52,082
Calvin Evans is here.
279
00:17:52,082 --> 00:17:54,418
- You're sweet on him, aren't you?
280
00:17:54,418 --> 00:17:57,880
Smart, well-to-do, famous. What's not to like?
281
00:17:57,880 --> 00:17:59,423
282
00:18:00,007 --> 00:18:01,008
Try talking to him.
283
00:18:02,217 --> 00:18:05,888
Well, two more of these, and I'm going to ask him to vote for me.
284
00:18:05,888 --> 00:18:06,972
285
00:18:06,972 --> 00:18:08,098
286
00:18:08,098 --> 00:18:09,183
Excuse me.
287
00:18:11,393 --> 00:18:14,063
I'm just gonna stand here with you.
288
00:18:15,481 --> 00:18:16,482
All right.
289
00:18:17,441 --> 00:18:20,319
290
00:18:20,319 --> 00:18:22,571
You shouldn't let the other chemists pick on you so much.
291
00:18:23,572 --> 00:18:26,784
Oh. It's just fellas being fellas.
292
00:18:26,784 --> 00:18:29,078
Hmm. Male primate behavior.
293
00:18:29,578 --> 00:18:32,081
Please, everyone, take your seats. Take your seats.
294
00:18:32,081 --> 00:18:33,165
295
00:18:33,165 --> 00:18:35,667
Pageant contestants, can I get you backstage?
296
00:18:36,210 --> 00:18:37,211
Thank you.
297
00:18:37,753 --> 00:18:40,464
Welcome, welcome, welcome. I'm Fran Frask...
298
00:18:40,464 --> 00:18:43,842
- Miss Zott, I have wanted to...
- ... acting head of Personnel.
299
00:18:43,842 --> 00:18:45,552
300
00:18:45,552 --> 00:18:48,305
And I couldn't be more excited to welcome you...
301
00:18:48,305 --> 00:18:52,601
to the eighth annual Little Miss Hastings Pageant,...
302
00:18:52,601 --> 00:18:55,604
where one lucky woman will take home the crown...
303
00:18:55,604 --> 00:18:58,482
worn by last year's winner Colleen Murphy.
304
00:18:58,482 --> 00:18:59,566
305
00:18:59,566 --> 00:19:04,822
Yes. Yeah, she looks great.
Uh, and a $25 cash prize.
306
00:19:04,822 --> 00:19:06,698
Thank you, Colleen.
307
00:19:07,282 --> 00:19:09,576
I will also be joining the competition this year.
308
00:19:09,576 --> 00:19:11,328
But feel no pressure to vote for me...
309
00:19:11,328 --> 00:19:13,137
...unless you care about
310
00:19:13,147 --> 00:19:14,510
getting your vacation days approved.
311
00:19:14,521 --> 00:19:16,458
I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
312
00:19:16,458 --> 00:19:20,504
And without further ado, I'd like to introduce tonight's emcee,...
313
00:19:20,504 --> 00:19:22,172
Dr. Richard Price.
314
00:19:22,172 --> 00:19:24,049
315
00:19:26,468 --> 00:19:28,929
Thank you. Thank you, Miss Frask.
316
00:19:28,929 --> 00:19:32,099
Wonderful. What a night. Pretty good turnout tonight.
317
00:19:32,099 --> 00:19:33,475
Okay. Oh, wait.
318
00:19:33,475 --> 00:19:35,677
Hey, before I get started, uh, just a...
319
00:19:35,687 --> 00:19:37,730
a quick question from management.
320
00:19:37,730 --> 00:19:40,607
Did anyone here lose an electron?
321
00:19:40,607 --> 00:19:43,110
You really gotta keep an ion it.
322
00:19:43,110 --> 00:19:45,112
Ion?
323
00:19:45,112 --> 00:19:47,197
- Everybody got it?
- Ions.
324
00:19:47,197 --> 00:19:51,034
Okay. Folks, let's get started with the show.
325
00:19:51,034 --> 00:19:55,330
Now, please keep in mind, these ladies have worked very, very hard.
326
00:19:55,330 --> 00:19:57,865
So please, everybody, let's all make like a...
327
00:19:57,875 --> 00:20:00,794
proton... and stay positive.
328
00:20:00,794 --> 00:20:03,672
329
00:20:03,672 --> 00:20:05,867
All right. And now, ladies and gentlemen,...
330
00:20:05,877 --> 00:20:07,885
the moment we've all been waiting for.
331
00:20:07,885 --> 00:20:14,349
I give you your Little Miss Hastings 1951 contestants.
332
00:20:14,349 --> 00:20:17,644
Here they are. Oh, fantastic.
333
00:20:17,644 --> 00:20:20,856
Aren't they charming? Look at that.
334
00:20:26,695 --> 00:20:32,076
Miss Synthetics, what would you make your future husband for dessert?
335
00:20:32,076 --> 00:20:33,410
336
00:20:33,410 --> 00:20:37,831
Well, I'd start with two scoops of vanilla ice cream,...
337
00:20:37,831 --> 00:20:41,293
and I'd squeeze chocolate sauce all over them.
338
00:20:41,955 --> 00:20:43,497
And you'll have to vote for me if you...
339
00:20:43,507 --> 00:20:45,222
wanna hear how I apply the whipped cream.
340
00:20:45,233 --> 00:20:48,231
Okay.
341
00:20:48,242 --> 00:20:52,221
Miss Zott, where would be your fantasy honeymoon location?
342
00:20:52,805 --> 00:20:54,223
I don't intend to get married.
343
00:20:54,223 --> 00:20:55,557
344
00:20:55,557 --> 00:20:57,518
Ye... Okay, yes. But if you did?
345
00:20:57,518 --> 00:20:59,061
I won't.
346
00:20:59,061 --> 00:21:03,190
Okay. Well, uh, Miss Zott, everyone. Miss Zott.
347
00:21:06,819 --> 00:21:08,862
I can't stop thinking about you.
348
00:21:08,862 --> 00:21:12,533

00:21:12,533 --> 00:21:16,036

00:21:16,036 --> 00:21:18,080
- Ladies and gentlemen. Now to...
- Honey. Hi.
351
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,373
- ...lift our spirits with...
- You're here.
352
00:21:19,373 --> 00:21:21,708
- Carol's fever broke, so I...
- ...a cheer, here is Personnel's...
353
00:21:21,708 --> 00:21:25,045
- ...thought I'd join you for some fun.
- ... Miss Fran Frask.

You know, some, uh, sex appeal wouldn't hurt, Zott.
356
00:21:36,724 --> 00:21:39,393
You've kind of been embarrassing the Amino Acids team.

00:21:39,977 --> 00:21:41,353
Uh, look at Jenny, huh?
358
00:21:41,353 --> 00:21:43,021
This is a great outfit.
359
00:21:43,021 --> 00:21:45,896
Thanks. My lab paid me ten dollars...
360
00:21:45,906 --> 00:21:47,483
to show some skin during my talent.
361
00:21:47,494 --> 00:21:49,361
Smart.
362
00:21:49,361 --> 00:21:54,283
♪ ... of Harvard

363
00:21:54,283 --> 00:21:55,868
364
00:21:55,868 --> 00:21:57,619
Wow! How about that?
365
00:21:57,619 --> 00:21:59,329
Fran Frask, ladies and gentlemen.
366
00:21:59,329 --> 00:22:02,291
Thank you, Miss Frask. That was wonderful. My goodness.
367
00:22:02,291 --> 00:22:04,126
- I heard that hydrogen...
- Nancy Donatti.
368
00:22:04,126 --> 00:22:06,003
...and carbon went on a date...
369
00:22:06,003 --> 00:22:07,421
- ...and it went really well.
- Hmm.
370
00:22:07,432 --> 00:22:09,392
- They really bonded.
- I heard a great deal about you.
371
00:22:09,403 --> 00:22:10,456
372
00:22:10,467 --> 00:22:11,895
Mrs. Donatti, is there...
373
00:22:11,905 --> 00:22:13,886
is there benzaldehyde in your perfume?
374
00:22:13,886 --> 00:22:16,013
What? I... I don't know.
375
00:22:16,013 --> 00:22:17,890
It's from Paris.
376
00:22:17,890 --> 00:22:20,559
- Oh, God. Uh, my allergies.
- Oh. Oh.
377
00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:22,102
...talents of Elizabeth Zott...
378
00:22:22,102 --> 00:22:23,604
- Huh.
- ...Miss Aminos!
379
00:22:24,980 --> 00:22:26,940
Oh.
380
00:22:26,940 --> 00:22:30,194
381
00:22:30,194 --> 00:22:33,572
Oh, my goodness.
382
00:22:33,572 --> 00:22:35,157
Dr. Evans?
383
00:22:35,949 --> 00:22:39,328
Oh, no. No. I need to go home.
384
00:22:39,328 --> 00:22:41,246
Correct, but you shouldn't drive in this condition.
385
00:22:41,246 --> 00:22:43,555
I don't drive.
386
00:22:43,565 --> 00:22:45,672
It's only seven miles.
I'll... I'll walk.
387
00:22:46,086 --> 00:22:47,757
All right. I'll take you then.
388
00:22:47,768 --> 00:22:51,216
- But you hate me.
- Oh, for Christ's sake.
389
00:22:59,681 --> 00:23:04,311
390
00:23:04,311 --> 00:23:07,606
Okay, uh... It's okay.
391
00:23:08,190 --> 00:23:09,608
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
392
00:23:09,608 --> 00:23:11,235
Please stop apologizing.
393
00:23:11,235 --> 00:23:13,612
It can't be helped. The glottis closes.
394
00:23:13,612 --> 00:23:16,490
The abdominal muscles clench, increasing pressure.
395
00:23:16,490 --> 00:23:17,991
The pyloric sphincter closes.
396
00:23:18,992 --> 00:23:20,619
- Only way out is upwards.
- No, I meant...
397
00:23:20,619 --> 00:23:22,621
I'm sorry I called you a secretary.
398
00:23:23,414 --> 00:23:25,374
There's nothing wrong with being a secretary.
399
00:23:26,166 --> 00:23:29,086
No, of course not. But...
...to... to assume was...
400
00:23:29,086 --> 00:23:34,299
was wrong and... and buffoonish, and I... Oh, God.
401
00:23:34,299 --> 00:23:38,011
Let's get you inside.
402
00:23:38,011 --> 00:23:40,097
- Oh, dear God.
- Oh. Oh.
403
00:23:41,890 --> 00:23:43,976
404
00:23:52,985 --> 00:23:54,445
You have nothing in your cupboards.
405
00:23:55,237 --> 00:23:57,364
Yeah, I... I sometimes forget to eat.
406
00:24:00,284 --> 00:24:01,483
You have one fork.
407
00:24:01,494 --> 00:24:03,288
I don't entertain.
408
00:24:05,372 --> 00:24:08,917
Hmm. Well, miracle of miracles, I found a kettle.
409
00:24:08,917 --> 00:24:12,087
Hey, I just... I want to apologize once more for the other day.
410
00:24:12,087 --> 00:24:13,672
- I was, uh...
- I can't accept your apology.
411
00:24:13,672 --> 00:24:16,675
I... I would like to, but you don't know what you're apologizing for.
412
00:24:16,675 --> 00:24:18,677
And so the entire exercise is meaningless.
413
00:24:19,595 --> 00:24:21,263
Yes, I did borrow some of your ribose.
414
00:24:21,263 --> 00:24:24,099
Some of a very plentiful supply, if I might add.
415
00:24:24,099 --> 00:24:26,185
But you have all of the resources...
416
00:24:26,185 --> 00:24:28,771
and the rapt attention of the entire scientific community,...
417
00:24:29,271 --> 00:24:30,439
and you take it for granted.
418
00:24:30,939 --> 00:24:33,525
You must be intelligent, based upon your myriad of accomplishments.
419
00:24:33,525 --> 00:24:35,787
But you walk around like a... like a...
420
00:24:35,797 --> 00:24:39,698
like a paranoid, ungrateful, fragile man.
421
00:24:41,116 --> 00:24:46,205
So to respond to your comment earlier, I don't hate you. I just...
422
00:24:47,873 --> 00:24:49,374
I don't like you.
423
00:24:53,879 --> 00:24:54,880
Thank you.
424
00:24:58,342 --> 00:25:00,969
Oh, I... Uh, I have something for you.
425
00:25:04,473 --> 00:25:07,059
It's the only reason I came to the party tonight.
426
00:25:09,228 --> 00:25:10,229
To bring me ribose?
427
00:25:11,230 --> 00:25:12,815
You have your master's in chemistry.
428
00:25:14,233 --> 00:25:15,234
I do.
429
00:25:16,110 --> 00:25:18,112
You didn't want to pursue a PhD?
430
00:25:19,822 --> 00:25:21,698
It was a complicated situation.
431
00:25:24,701 --> 00:25:26,870
I'm sorry you didn't get to finish the competition.
432
00:25:26,870 --> 00:25:28,288
Oh, no. I'm not.
433
00:25:28,288 --> 00:25:30,040
What about the cash prize?
434
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,792
Blood money.
435
00:25:42,177 --> 00:25:43,470
May I ask you a question?
436
00:25:44,805 --> 00:25:46,390
I can't promise I'll answer.
437
00:25:47,141 --> 00:25:50,644
What was your talent gonna be for the pageant?
438
00:25:53,105 --> 00:25:56,358
I was going to place a tomato in a bowl of boiling water.
439
00:25:57,484 --> 00:26:00,946
As you know, heat causes molecules to excite.
440
00:26:02,030 --> 00:26:04,950
The flesh of the tomato expands on the peel.
441
00:26:05,951 --> 00:26:09,538
Then I place it in a bowl of cold water for approximately 60 seconds,...
442
00:26:09,538 --> 00:26:12,332
and the peel slides off easily.
443
00:26:15,002 --> 00:26:16,003
You would have won.
444
00:26:19,923 --> 00:26:21,008
Good night, Dr. Evans.
445
00:26:27,765 --> 00:26:29,767
446
00:26:32,019 --> 00:26:33,479
Watch for cars!
447
00:26:33,479 --> 00:26:35,022
Dr. Evans!
448
00:26:38,192 --> 00:26:39,818
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
449
00:26:40,319 --> 00:26:42,154
What's your favorite color? Guess mine.
450
00:26:42,654 --> 00:26:45,657
Your favorite color? Hmm, that's hard.
451
00:26:45,657 --> 00:26:48,869
Let's see. I don't know. Aquamarine?
452
00:26:49,703 --> 00:26:50,913
That's not a color.
453
00:26:51,455 --> 00:26:53,207
Well, color is phenomenological.
454
00:26:53,207 --> 00:26:55,709
Linda, can you come finish, please?
455
00:26:55,709 --> 00:26:57,044
Morning, Harriet.
456
00:26:57,044 --> 00:26:58,670
Morning, friend.
457
00:26:58,670 --> 00:27:00,547
Oh, these people are shameless.
458
00:27:00,547 --> 00:27:01,715
- Mmm.
- Morning.
459
00:27:01,715 --> 00:27:04,301
More long-lost relatives looking for long-lost money?
460
00:27:04,301 --> 00:27:06,190
Mm-hmm. I never should have agreed to be...
461
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:07,805
on the cover of Scientific American.
462
00:27:07,805 --> 00:27:09,098
Ah, once again,...
463
00:27:09,098 --> 00:27:10,720
same woman claiming to be my mother...
464
00:27:10,731 --> 00:27:12,563
every couple of weeks like clockwork.
465
00:27:12,574 --> 00:27:16,078
If your real mother was alive, she'd be proud you did that cover.
466
00:27:16,355 --> 00:27:17,731
What's all this?
467
00:27:18,401 --> 00:27:19,930
They wanna connect the 10 Freeway from...
468
00:27:19,940 --> 00:27:21,890
downtown all the way to Santa Monica.
469
00:27:21,901 --> 00:27:23,654
Bulldoze right through our backyard.
470
00:27:23,883 --> 00:27:25,176
But people live here.
471
00:27:25,187 --> 00:27:26,980
Now, question is, which people?
472
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,952
Stop it. You're doing it wrong.
473
00:27:29,952 --> 00:27:32,704
Linda, sweetie, it's okay. Just let him play.
474
00:27:33,101 --> 00:27:35,697
Uh, you mind watching them again for me...
475
00:27:35,707 --> 00:27:37,793
next Tuesday? I have a committee meeting.
476
00:27:37,813 --> 00:27:39,815
- Of course. Of course.
- Thank you.
477
00:27:45,426 --> 00:27:47,761
Miss Zott, can I have a word with you?
478
00:27:51,098 --> 00:27:52,599
Could you please keep the door open?
479
00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:54,188
Your little stunt at the pageant made...
480
00:27:54,198 --> 00:27:56,145
the whole Aminos department look foolish.
481
00:27:57,808 --> 00:28:02,145
As your supervisor, your behavior reflects poorly on me.
482
00:28:04,737 --> 00:28:07,990
This is not how I run my department. I expect a better attitude.
483
00:28:09,616 --> 00:28:11,201
Embarrass me again and you're done.
484
00:28:16,707 --> 00:28:18,709
485
00:28:46,570 --> 00:28:48,072
486
00:28:52,993 --> 00:28:54,995
487
00:29:04,088 --> 00:29:05,130
May I join you?
488
00:29:06,799 --> 00:29:07,966
You may.
489
00:29:12,096 --> 00:29:13,097
You made that?
490
00:29:14,348 --> 00:29:17,184
Would you like to try some? I assume you haven't eaten all day.
491
00:29:17,184 --> 00:29:20,396
Oh, no, no. I have... I have a sleeve of saltines in my desk.
492
00:29:21,105 --> 00:29:23,524
Hmm. You must be very constipated.
493
00:29:28,695 --> 00:29:29,696
Thank you.
494
00:29:33,492 --> 00:29:36,662
Mmm. Wow. That's...
495
00:29:37,579 --> 00:29:41,041
I've never had, uh... That's perfect.
496
00:29:42,418 --> 00:29:44,837
It's not perfect, but it has the potential to be.
497
00:29:45,421 --> 00:29:46,797
This is my 78th attempt.
498
00:29:48,173 --> 00:29:49,550
My current focus is cheese.
499
00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:52,709
- Cheese?
- Mmm.
500
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,306
At about 92 degrees, the solid milk fat in the cheese liquefies,...
501
00:29:56,306 --> 00:29:58,108
and the bonds holding together the casein...
502
00:29:58,119 --> 00:30:01,175
- proteins break. But the melt isn't smooth.
- It isn't?
503
00:30:01,186 --> 00:30:04,273
No. Which is why I've been experimenting with sodium citrate.
504
00:30:04,273 --> 00:30:06,150
The sodium substitutes for some of the calcium...
505
00:30:06,150 --> 00:30:09,194
that's causing the proteins to cling, so when the cheese heats...
506
00:30:09,194 --> 00:30:11,864
Proteins separate from each other, acting as emulsifiers,...
507
00:30:12,364 --> 00:30:15,409
strengthening the emulsion by holding water and fat together.
508
00:30:16,034 --> 00:30:17,216
Precisely.
509
00:30:17,227 --> 00:30:22,229
And you needed my ribose to perfect your lasagna recipe?
510
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,661
No. Lasagna is my dinner. I needed your ribose for my research.
511
00:30:26,462 --> 00:30:27,546
Oh.
512
00:30:28,881 --> 00:30:31,425
Ninety-nine percent of the human body is made up of carbon,...
513
00:30:31,425 --> 00:30:33,287
hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, calcium,...
514
00:30:33,297 --> 00:30:34,928
phosphorus, with a few ions thrown in.
515
00:30:34,928 --> 00:30:37,681
But how did we get to this level of complexity here on Earth?
516
00:30:37,681 --> 00:30:40,601
The two of us sitting here at this table, talking,...
517
00:30:40,601 --> 00:30:44,354
going from a soup of atoms and small molecules to now with...
518
00:30:45,898 --> 00:30:47,691
That is what I'm trying to uncover.
519
00:30:47,691 --> 00:30:49,443
Abiogenesis.
520
00:30:49,443 --> 00:30:51,111
You're interested in it?
521
00:30:51,779 --> 00:30:52,863
Keeps me up at night.
522
00:30:56,492 --> 00:30:57,672
Me too.
523
00:31:08,170 --> 00:31:10,506
I've read your past papers, but what are you working on currently?
524
00:31:10,506 --> 00:31:14,635
Uh... I'm doing exploratory research on...
525
00:31:14,635 --> 00:31:18,263
on natural enzyme identification, isolation, classification.
526
00:31:18,764 --> 00:31:20,432
It's... That smells good.
527
00:31:20,432 --> 00:31:22,768
- Is that mashed potatoes?
- Oh. Mmm.
528
00:31:24,103 --> 00:31:25,104
Excuse me.
529
00:31:25,938 --> 00:31:28,524
Mmm. Man alive.
530
00:31:42,079 --> 00:31:44,331
No, no, no. That-That doesn't make any sense, 'cause that...
531
00:31:44,331 --> 00:31:46,166
that doesn't explain how you closed the ring.
532
00:31:46,166 --> 00:31:48,752
Sure. But when a polyphosphoric acid is applied,...
533
00:31:48,752 --> 00:31:52,631
it creates phosphate esters with a high monoester content. See?
534
00:31:55,426 --> 00:31:58,220
Mmm. That's a pretty good point.
535
00:32:01,390 --> 00:32:02,391
536
00:32:08,147 --> 00:32:10,357
It is a bit of a chicken and egg situation,...
537
00:32:10,357 --> 00:32:11,900
but if you consider Occam's razor,...
538
00:32:12,133 --> 00:32:14,535
would nature choose a system that is more...
539
00:32:14,545 --> 00:32:18,198
- complex to create something less complex?
- Hmm. So RNA world theory?
540
00:32:18,198 --> 00:32:21,034
Miss Zott, I'm gonna be needing one of your special cups of joe...
541
00:32:21,034 --> 00:32:22,286
to get me through this afternoon.
542
00:32:22,286 --> 00:32:23,620
Right.
543
00:32:23,620 --> 00:32:25,956
Of course, I would be much further along in my research...
544
00:32:25,956 --> 00:32:28,834
if I wasn't making excellent coffee for mediocre chemists.
545
00:32:28,834 --> 00:32:31,378
You're on the verge of a major scientific breakthrough.
546
00:32:31,378 --> 00:32:33,714
- You need to talk to Donatti.
- I did. He said no.
547
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,216
That doesn't make any sense. Why?
548
00:32:36,925 --> 00:32:38,135
Sex discrimination.
549
00:32:39,344 --> 00:32:40,429
What?
550
00:32:40,429 --> 00:32:43,223
Well, also politics and favoritism and general unfairness.
551
00:32:43,223 --> 00:32:44,850
But yes, mostly sex discrimination.
552
00:32:45,684 --> 00:32:48,020
I don't understand. Why would anyone discriminate based on...
553
00:32:48,020 --> 00:32:50,939
something as intellectually non-determinative as gender?
554
00:32:50,939 --> 00:32:55,110
Calvin, how many female scientists can you name?
555
00:32:56,070 --> 00:32:57,470
Madame Curie.
556
00:32:58,405 --> 00:33:01,575
Exactly. Do you think that's just by happenstance?
557
00:33:03,702 --> 00:33:07,081
I don't know. I hadn't considered it until now.
558
00:33:07,081 --> 00:33:08,843
Of course. You haven't had to,...
559
00:33:08,853 --> 00:33:11,168
because people fully appreciate your potential.
560
00:33:12,086 --> 00:33:13,347
This is me.
561
00:33:14,671 --> 00:33:16,882
Raise your hand if you'd like coffee.
562
00:33:24,556 --> 00:33:26,350
- Okay. I've been thinking.
- Oh.
563
00:33:26,850 --> 00:33:29,895
My enzyme research would benefit from your molecular synthesis work.
564
00:33:29,895 --> 00:33:32,773
So I can talk to Donatti, tell him to let you work for me,...
565
00:33:32,773 --> 00:33:35,025
and then you'd be able to focus entirely on your own research.
566
00:33:35,025 --> 00:33:37,861
No, Donatti would never hire me as a chemist. Only a lab tech.
567
00:33:37,861 --> 00:33:39,870
Technically. But you-you'd be doing
568
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,573
independent research, actual chemistry.
569
00:33:41,573 --> 00:33:43,075
You would have free rein.
570
00:33:43,075 --> 00:33:45,119
But I'd be a lab tech to everyone else.
571
00:33:45,119 --> 00:33:47,254
Obviously. In a perfect world, you...
572
00:33:47,264 --> 00:33:48,580
you wouldn't need help from anyone.
573
00:33:48,580 --> 00:33:50,749
But, as you pointed out very lucidly,...
574
00:33:50,749 --> 00:33:53,085
you are working within a system that is pervasively unfair.
575
00:33:53,085 --> 00:33:55,421
For you to operate as if it were fair, that's...
576
00:33:55,421 --> 00:33:57,881
Can you explain to me how that makes any sense at all?
577
00:33:57,881 --> 00:34:00,217
I'll... I'll treat you as an equal.
578
00:34:00,217 --> 00:34:02,302
Hell, you're one of the smartest people in this lab.
579
00:34:02,845 --> 00:34:05,848
Calvin, it doesn't matter if I work with you or for you.
580
00:34:05,848 --> 00:34:09,142
People will view the work as yours. I'll never be seen as a scientist.
581
00:34:09,142 --> 00:34:11,186
When you publish as lead scientist, they will.

Are you wearing pajamas?
583
00:34:19,945 --> 00:34:24,283
No. That's my, uh, running gear. I run to and from work.
584
00:34:25,242 --> 00:34:26,952
What does that mean, you run?
585
00:34:26,952 --> 00:34:29,705
I run, you know, for exercise.
586
00:34:29,705 --> 00:34:31,915
I know people find it odd, but it helps quiet my mind.
587
00:34:31,915 --> 00:34:32,999
Oh.
588
00:34:35,334 --> 00:34:36,837

- Oh.

Whoo-hoo.
597

There is protocol, Miss Zott. When you...
598
00:35:14,072 --> 00:35:15,834
don't follow protocol, it falls on me.
599

when you left the pageant halfway through?
601
00:35:20,339 --> 00:35:22,007
I am sympathetic, Miss Frask,...
602
00:35:22,007 --> 00:35:24,093
but I'd really like to stay focused on my request.
603
00:35:25,302 --> 00:35:26,553
It's a bad idea.

610

612
00:35:42,194 --> 00:35:43,862
I didn't think you'd be as foolish as that.

00:35:43,862 --> 00:35:47,074
There's a reason he's dead set on you, and I don't think it's your CV.
614
00:35:47,074 --> 00:35:50,494
How many women chemists can you name, aside from Madame Curie?
615
00:35:50,494 --> 00:35:53,247
- She's unqualified.
- I didn't come here asking for permission.
616
00:35:53,247 --> 00:35:56,291
I came here to make sure that the paperwork was filled out correctly.
617

which is fine. As long as the Remsen funding keeps flowing.

But as soon as the money dries up, you're gone.

00:43:52,694 --> 00:43:53,769
711
00:43:53,769 --> 00:43:55,484
The Maillard reaction quickly browned...
712
00:43:55,494 --> 00:43:57,398
the meat before placing it in the oven.
713
00:43:57,398 --> 00:43:59,066
Now, let's see the fruits of our labor.
714
00:44:05,030 --> 00:44:06,573
715
00:44:08,158 --> 00:44:09,451
Oh, my God.
716
00:44:14,873 --> 00:44:16,041
717
00:44:16,041 --> 00:44:18,877
- Walter, should we cut to commercial?
- No. I don't know. No.
718
00:44:21,588 --> 00:44:23,215
That was not the intended outcome.
719
00:44:31,140 --> 00:44:35,310
In science, you endeavor to control every variable of your experiment.
720
00:44:36,061 --> 00:44:39,314
The temperature in your lab, the number of contaminants,...
721
00:44:40,023 --> 00:44:42,609
the correct calibration for each piece of equipment.
722
00:44:44,987 --> 00:44:47,990
Sometimes you can't count on a formula.
723
00:44:48,904 --> 00:44:51,406
Sometimes you can't control each variable.
724
00:44:52,587 --> 00:44:54,033
Sometimes...
725
00:44:56,183 --> 00:44:57,667
Many times...
726
00:44:59,918 --> 00:45:01,336
things just turn out messy.
727
00:45:04,923 --> 00:45:08,429
Sometimes you will burn the lasagna.
728
00:45:14,892 --> 00:45:16,894
729
00:45:21,982 --> 00:45:24,095
So I guess it's leftovers tonight.
730
00:45:24,980 --> 00:45:28,228
Children, set the table. Your mother needs a moment for herself.
