(Mary Jane)
Previously on Being Mary Jane...
2
00:00:01,798 --> 00:00:03,828
I want to win an Emmy
3
00:00:03,726 --> 00:00:05,959
for producing nightly news
on network.
4
00:00:05,847 --> 00:00:09,148
Oh, did they assemble a secret focus
group session for you as well?
5
00:00:08,981 --> 00:00:11,771
I was ordered
not to tell you.
6
00:00:11,630 --> 00:00:14,047
- You thought I didn't know?
- Look, I didn't do anything.
7
00:00:13,925 --> 00:00:15,673
I know, not a damn thing.
8
00:00:15,585 --> 00:00:17,959
- What else you need?
- $3 to 5 million in capital.
9
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,381
I got to pull out
of this deal.
10
00:00:19,303 --> 00:00:20,427
You want to back
out of the deal
11
00:00:20,371 --> 00:00:21,911
because my sister
hurt your feelings?
12
00:00:21,834 --> 00:00:23,125
(Mary Jane) I don't want
to rush into anything.
13
00:00:23,060 --> 00:00:24,435
You're in luck.
14
00:00:24,366 --> 00:00:26,608
I'm a patient man,
and you're well worth the wait.
15
00:00:28,835 --> 00:00:31,708
[smooth R&B music]
16
00:00:31,563 --> 00:00:39,563

[doorbell rings]

00:01:00,633 --> 00:01:08,408
22
00:01:08,014 --> 00:01:09,804
I brought the good
black truffle gouda
23
00:01:09,714 --> 00:01:11,671
and a Bordeaux this time.
24
00:01:11,572 --> 00:01:19,572
25
00:01:19,404 --> 00:01:22,027
(woman)
Let's take
this overboard now
26
00:01:21,895 --> 00:01:23,395
I want you to
27
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:31,319
28
00:01:40,405 --> 00:01:48,405
29
00:01:57,491 --> 00:02:05,491
30
00:02:14,655 --> 00:02:22,655
31
00:02:31,859 --> 00:02:39,859
32
00:02:45,820 --> 00:02:48,653
I needed that.
33
00:02:48,510 --> 00:02:50,425
- Got you feeling loose?
Mm-hmm.
34
00:02:50,329 --> 00:02:52,704
- Yes, you do.
35
00:02:52,584 --> 00:02:55,249
It's gonna suck
if you sign with another team.
36
00:02:55,115 --> 00:02:57,739
- When I sign with another team.
- Right.
37
00:02:57,607 --> 00:02:59,564
I mean, they were stupid
to release you,
38
00:02:59,465 --> 00:03:01,089
but you know what?
39
00:03:01,008 --> 00:03:02,882
Worst case, you could always
40
00:03:02,787 --> 00:03:04,536
go to the Canadian
Football League.
41
00:03:04,448 --> 00:03:06,113
[chuckles]
42
00:03:06,030 --> 00:03:09,363
Listen, I love football,
but not there.
43
00:03:09,194 --> 00:03:10,694
You can't trust a place
where they feel comfortable
44
00:03:10,619 --> 00:03:12,659
leaving their doors unlocked.
45
00:03:12,556 --> 00:03:15,763
You know, it's just not home.
46
00:03:15,602 --> 00:03:18,310
It's the NFL or nothing.
47
00:03:18,173 --> 00:03:20,255
You could always
go back to school.
48
00:03:20,150 --> 00:03:23,899
- Weren't you close to getting your degree?
- No, school's not my thing,
49
00:03:23,710 --> 00:03:25,077
and if I get a couple
more years in,
50
00:03:25,014 --> 00:03:27,214
you know,
I can invest that money.
51
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,926
Since we're playing
20 questions,
52
00:03:31,817 --> 00:03:34,025
why don't you tell me
about your new guy?
53
00:03:33,914 --> 00:03:35,288
Look, I--
54
00:03:35,219 --> 00:03:36,801
Come on, Mary Jane.
55
00:03:36,721 --> 00:03:39,137
Everybody goes
to the Optimist.
56
00:03:39,016 --> 00:03:41,216
I saw you in there
with that old cat.
57
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:42,650
Think he even
had a Kangol on.
58
00:03:42,575 --> 00:03:45,866
- He did not have on a Kangol.
- Yeah, you're right.
59
00:03:45,700 --> 00:03:48,657
His hair's a little too high
for that.
60
00:03:48,508 --> 00:03:50,507
You're wrong for that.
61
00:03:50,406 --> 00:03:52,905
Oh, well.
62
00:03:52,779 --> 00:03:55,569
Is he cool?
63
00:03:55,428 --> 00:03:58,802
Yeah. Yeah, he is.
64
00:03:58,632 --> 00:04:03,340
I mean, it's new,
but it's good.
65
00:04:03,102 --> 00:04:06,267
So are you sleeping with him?
66
00:04:06,107 --> 00:04:09,565
Because it's not
in our arrangement to,
67
00:04:09,390 --> 00:04:11,514
you know, have sex with
other people while we are.
68
00:04:11,407 --> 00:04:13,239
Don't you want to know
his name first?
69
00:04:13,147 --> 00:04:15,188
Hey, listen,
I'm happy for you, okay?
70
00:04:15,085 --> 00:04:18,333
But I'm just looking out
for my own well-being.
71
00:04:18,169 --> 00:04:19,168
Yeah--
72
00:04:19,118 --> 00:04:22,660
No, I have not
slept with him.
73
00:04:22,481 --> 00:04:25,730
We're not there yet.
74
00:04:25,566 --> 00:04:28,772
You just keep me posted
if anything changes.
75
00:04:28,610 --> 00:04:30,860
All right, you been grilling me,
so what about you?
76
00:04:30,747 --> 00:04:33,787
Have you been sticking
with our deal?
77
00:04:33,634 --> 00:04:36,967
My only concern right now
is getting back into the NFL.
78
00:04:36,798 --> 00:04:38,898
I don't have time
for a bunch of drama right now.
79
00:04:42,888 --> 00:04:45,137
You ever think sometimes,
80
00:04:45,024 --> 00:04:47,107
um...
81
00:04:47,002 --> 00:04:50,577
our situation
is the reason why--
82
00:04:53,607 --> 00:04:56,898
Never mind.
83
00:04:56,731 --> 00:04:59,939
How about I get you
a hot towel?
84
00:04:59,777 --> 00:05:02,233
(woman)
Drag from my
lips to my fingertips
85
00:05:02,110 --> 00:05:05,068
What you looking at?
Got a problem?
86
00:05:04,918 --> 00:05:07,250
That's fine, 'cause I love
the way you're staring at it
87
00:05:07,133 --> 00:05:09,216
88
00:05:09,111 --> 00:05:10,235
You're staring at it
89
00:05:10,179 --> 00:05:11,802
90
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,296
You're staring at it
91
00:05:13,223 --> 00:05:14,931
92
00:05:14,845 --> 00:05:17,970
Oh, damn, that feels good.
93
00:05:17,812 --> 00:05:21,018
How about an encore?
94
00:05:20,856 --> 00:05:21,939
I can't.
95
00:05:21,885 --> 00:05:24,758
Got a late-night session
with my trainer,
96
00:05:24,613 --> 00:05:27,363
but, um,
I'm free on Thursday.
97
00:05:27,225 --> 00:05:29,308
Maybe we can
get together then.
98
00:05:29,203 --> 00:05:31,701
Oh, that's too bad.
99
00:05:31,575 --> 00:05:33,449
Guess I'll have to call
my other dude.
100
00:05:33,354 --> 00:05:34,520
[chuckles]
101
00:05:34,462 --> 00:05:36,127
(woman)
Is it the way that I walk?
102
00:05:36,044 --> 00:05:37,168
(women)
What you know about it?
103
00:05:37,111 --> 00:05:38,110
(woman)
Is it the way that I talk?
104
00:05:38,061 --> 00:05:40,019
Oh, man.
105
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,877
(women)
Is it the way that my
lip gloss shining in the light
106
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:45,301
(women)
She a killer, ain't she?
107
00:05:45,219 --> 00:05:47,926
(woman)
You can look until
your face turn purple
108
00:05:47,790 --> 00:05:50,456
This ain't on purpose
when I look like a commercial
109
00:05:50,321 --> 00:05:53,236
Oh, darling, careful,
you're gonna go down
110
00:05:53,089 --> 00:05:54,505
Want to love me long time
111
00:05:54,434 --> 00:05:55,718
[man grunts]
112
00:06:00,051 --> 00:06:01,917
Oh.
113
00:06:03,966 --> 00:06:05,341
Hey, stranger.
114
00:06:05,272 --> 00:06:06,937
Hey, Nathalie.
How are you doing?
115
00:06:06,854 --> 00:06:08,811
I knew you'd be
coming in soon.
116
00:06:08,712 --> 00:06:11,045
- Why is that?
- Because Lisa was just in here.
117
00:06:10,928 --> 00:06:12,760
Girl bought up
half the store.
118
00:06:12,668 --> 00:06:14,083
I can't believe
how toned she is.
119
00:06:14,012 --> 00:06:15,804
- Did y'all go to Cancun again?
- No.
120
00:06:15,714 --> 00:06:18,045
I'll be on your level
one day.
121
00:06:17,927 --> 00:06:20,427
Girl, it's all work for me.
122
00:06:20,301 --> 00:06:22,632
Ooh, this--
123
00:06:22,515 --> 00:06:24,390
- This dress just came in.
- Oh.
124
00:06:24,295 --> 00:06:25,418
Right, this'll look good
on camera.
125
00:06:25,362 --> 00:06:27,029
- Yes.
- Accentuate your small frame?
126
00:06:26,945 --> 00:06:28,276
- I like it.
- Yeah?
127
00:06:28,210 --> 00:06:29,376
- Yeah.
- Good.
128
00:06:29,318 --> 00:06:32,060
Cool.
129
00:06:32,007 --> 00:06:34,006
So it's been a while.
Catch me up. How's your guy?
130
00:06:33,905 --> 00:06:35,572
What's his name, Doug?
131
00:06:35,488 --> 00:06:36,861
Darrell?
132
00:06:36,792 --> 00:06:39,000
Dre, Andre.
Yeah, that's over.
133
00:06:38,889 --> 00:06:40,631
What? Why?
134
00:06:40,549 --> 00:06:42,049
- He was a good one.
- Well, he's married.
135
00:06:41,974 --> 00:06:44,140
- So that's what happened.
- No.
136
00:06:44,031 --> 00:06:46,197
- Yeah.
- I knew it.
137
00:06:46,088 --> 00:06:47,628
He was too good to be true.
138
00:06:47,551 --> 00:06:48,842
Yeah, that's old news.
139
00:06:48,777 --> 00:06:51,108
You're better off anyway.
140
00:06:50,991 --> 00:06:53,741
So is there a new guy
in your life?
141
00:06:53,602 --> 00:06:55,976
Girl, I am married
to the job.
142
00:06:55,856 --> 00:06:57,729
I stay on my grind.
You know how that is.
143
00:06:57,635 --> 00:06:59,385
What about you?
How's law school?
144
00:06:59,297 --> 00:07:01,539
- Mm, it's hard.
- Yeah.
145
00:07:01,432 --> 00:07:03,682
But I'm not giving up.
146
00:07:03,569 --> 00:07:06,152
I almost landed an internship
at Collins and Hansen.
147
00:07:06,021 --> 00:07:08,311
- Oh, that's great.
- It didn't work out, but--
148
00:07:08,196 --> 00:07:09,612
You know what?
I have a friend who works--
149
00:07:09,541 --> 00:07:11,706
well, used to work there,
Sheldon DeWitt.
150
00:07:11,597 --> 00:07:13,763
Maybe I can ask him
if he can help.
151
00:07:13,654 --> 00:07:16,403
- Yeah.
- Oh, I know Sheldon.
152
00:07:16,264 --> 00:07:17,888
Oh, you know Sheldon?
153
00:07:17,807 --> 00:07:18,972
Yeah.
154
00:07:18,913 --> 00:07:21,537
How--how do you know Sheldon?
155
00:07:21,405 --> 00:07:23,189
How do you know Sheldon?
156
00:07:25,598 --> 00:07:26,931
How about we pour
some champagne
157
00:07:26,864 --> 00:07:28,980
and talk about Sheldon?
158
00:07:28,959 --> 00:07:30,375
- Let's do that.
- Yeah.
159
00:07:30,304 --> 00:07:31,345
That's a good idea.
160
00:07:31,293 --> 00:07:33,076
Let's do that.
161
00:07:39,282 --> 00:07:40,614
(Mary Jane)
So you and Sheldon, huh?
162
00:07:40,548 --> 00:07:42,173
Yes.
163
00:07:42,091 --> 00:07:44,255
Why are you making that face?
164
00:07:44,146 --> 00:07:46,229
I mean,
he's so much older than you.
165
00:07:46,124 --> 00:07:48,331
He's a powerful man and all,
but damn.
166
00:07:48,220 --> 00:07:50,927
And good-looking, but
167
00:07:50,790 --> 00:07:52,624
things just didn't
work out between us.
168
00:07:52,532 --> 00:07:53,863
How'd you guys meet?
169
00:07:53,796 --> 00:07:56,920
Oh, he came in here
dropping all kinds of cash.
170
00:07:56,763 --> 00:07:58,305
He was shopping for
some other woman
171
00:07:58,227 --> 00:08:00,184
and wanted me
to model the clothes,
172
00:08:00,086 --> 00:08:01,459
but once he saw me
in the outfits,
173
00:08:01,390 --> 00:08:04,098
he just told me to keep them.
174
00:08:03,961 --> 00:08:06,960
We dated for a few months
before it got too weird.
175
00:08:06,809 --> 00:08:08,133
Weird how?
176
00:08:09,814 --> 00:08:12,813
Oh, physically.
177
00:08:12,662 --> 00:08:14,619
(Mary Jane)
I mean, he's a mature man.
178
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,978
Not gonna be as active
as you are.
179
00:08:16,855 --> 00:08:17,896
Whoa, no, girl.
180
00:08:17,844 --> 00:08:19,177
He's very active.
181
00:08:19,110 --> 00:08:20,566
The man works out more than me.
182
00:08:20,493 --> 00:08:23,701
I was referring to the fact
that he never orgasms.
183
00:08:23,539 --> 00:08:24,746
Because he can't?
184
00:08:24,685 --> 00:08:26,434
Because he won't.
185
00:08:26,347 --> 00:08:29,881
He's straight-up kinky,
like, Eyes Wide Shut kinky.
186
00:08:29,708 --> 00:08:33,166
It's actually pretty impressive
for his age.
187
00:08:32,991 --> 00:08:35,823
- Oh.
- Mm.
188
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:38,471
That's--
189
00:08:38,330 --> 00:08:41,704
Wait, are you dating him?
190
00:08:41,534 --> 00:08:43,283
Something like that.
191
00:08:43,195 --> 00:08:44,295
Oh.
192
00:08:46,992 --> 00:08:49,908
You're just not usually
the type he goes for.
193
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,759
What do you mean?
194
00:08:51,659 --> 00:08:53,033
I--well,
195
00:08:52,964 --> 00:08:56,297
you know, like, closer to 40.
196
00:08:56,129 --> 00:08:57,877
So is that why you guys
ended things?
197
00:08:57,789 --> 00:08:58,997
Because of the sex?
198
00:08:58,936 --> 00:09:00,476
No. No, no, no.
199
00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:03,607
We ended things because
he never let me stay the night,
200
00:09:03,445 --> 00:09:05,694
like, never.
201
00:09:05,581 --> 00:09:07,163
You know that only
means one thing.
202
00:09:07,083 --> 00:09:08,706
What?
203
00:09:08,625 --> 00:09:10,708
That there are other women.
204
00:09:10,603 --> 00:09:13,518
Right, mm.
205
00:09:13,371 --> 00:09:14,787
We need a refill.
206
00:09:14,716 --> 00:09:16,499
- Please.
- Mm-hmm.
207
00:09:19,541 --> 00:09:22,439
Ron Finley, you are the face
of guerrilla gardening.
208
00:09:22,499 --> 00:09:23,881
That's what they tell me.
209
00:09:23,812 --> 00:09:25,553
I think I'm one of the faces.
210
00:09:25,466 --> 00:09:28,299
I mean, mine just happen to be
real prominent right now.
211
00:09:28,156 --> 00:09:31,071
I'm just trying to save
other faces that look like mine.
212
00:09:30,924 --> 00:09:32,923
You started planting food
gardens right outside your home
213
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:34,738
in Los Angeles
on city-owned land
214
00:09:34,642 --> 00:09:36,766
because you said
more dialysis centers
215
00:09:36,659 --> 00:09:38,409
were going up
than grocery stores.
216
00:09:38,321 --> 00:09:39,986
Well, actually,
you own the land,
217
00:09:39,902 --> 00:09:41,984
but the city has jurisdiction
over it,
218
00:09:41,879 --> 00:09:43,545
so I figured
if I own the land,
219
00:09:43,462 --> 00:09:45,753
I should be able to do
what I want with it.
220
00:09:45,637 --> 00:09:47,093
Yeah, I got into
a lot of trouble,
221
00:09:47,020 --> 00:09:49,019
you know, warrant issued
for my arrest
222
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:51,335
'cause they didn't say anything
about the rancid mattresses
223
00:09:51,213 --> 00:09:53,338
or the toilets,
but you plant a carrot,
224
00:09:53,231 --> 00:09:54,687
and all hell breaks loose.
225
00:09:54,614 --> 00:09:56,989
So basically,
I got the law changed,
226
00:09:56,869 --> 00:09:59,118
so now you can grow food
227
00:09:59,005 --> 00:10:02,670
on the parkways
in Los Angeles, California.
228
00:10:02,485 --> 00:10:05,359
You're known for aphorisms
like, "If kids grow kale",
229
00:10:05,214 --> 00:10:07,547
they eat kale,"
and "Drive-throughs are killing
230
00:10:07,429 --> 00:10:08,678
more people than drive-bys."
231
00:10:08,615 --> 00:10:10,280
Who are you marketing to,
232
00:10:10,197 --> 00:10:11,405
and are they listening?
233
00:10:11,344 --> 00:10:13,717
Uh, I'm marketing to, um,
234
00:10:13,598 --> 00:10:15,473
the urban communities
across America
235
00:10:15,379 --> 00:10:17,836
and, which I found out,
basically across the world.
236
00:10:17,712 --> 00:10:21,212
I mean, these communities
are being terrorized, occupied,
237
00:10:21,035 --> 00:10:23,616
and basically, it's genocide
238
00:10:23,486 --> 00:10:25,777
'cause you can't get any healthy
food in these neighborhoods.
239
00:10:25,661 --> 00:10:27,285
You can get alcohol,
240
00:10:27,204 --> 00:10:29,286
and you can get--you know,
there's a dialysis center
241
00:10:29,181 --> 00:10:32,139
or there's a doctor
waiting to amputate you,
242
00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:34,780
but you can't get any healthy
food, and it's by design,
243
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:38,055
and we need to redesign
our neighborhoods ourselves.
244
00:10:37,882 --> 00:10:39,423
We need to empower ourselves.
245
00:10:39,346 --> 00:10:40,720
We live there,
246
00:10:40,651 --> 00:10:42,650
and that we stop waiting
for the guy on the white horse
247
00:10:42,549 --> 00:10:44,047
to come and save us.
248
00:10:43,972 --> 00:10:45,840
We are the guys
on the white horse.
249
00:10:47,889 --> 00:10:49,221
My guest is Ron Finley,
250
00:10:49,154 --> 00:10:50,903
and we're talking
about gangster gardening.
251
00:10:50,815 --> 00:10:54,398
- We'll be right back.
- And we're clear.
252
00:10:54,217 --> 00:10:55,549
Thank you for doing our show.
253
00:10:55,482 --> 00:10:57,439
Thank you for having me
on the show,
254
00:10:57,341 --> 00:10:59,590
and I must say you're more
radiant in person
255
00:10:59,477 --> 00:11:01,434
than you are on TV.
- Oh, thank you.
256
00:11:01,335 --> 00:11:02,877
Mr. Finley, great show.
257
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,131
- Thank you.
- Very important.
258
00:11:04,064 --> 00:11:05,564
I appreciate you guys
getting the word out.
259
00:11:05,489 --> 00:11:07,021
- Thank you.
- Of course.
260
00:11:08,218 --> 00:11:09,751
It was a great show.
261
00:11:12,133 --> 00:11:14,132
What? Say it. What?
262
00:11:14,032 --> 00:11:16,530
You need to dig deeper.
263
00:11:16,404 --> 00:11:18,071
Wh--where's the journalism?
264
00:11:17,987 --> 00:11:20,151
Okay, there is more
to good journalism
265
00:11:20,042 --> 00:11:22,208
than interrogating
people, Kara.
266
00:11:22,099 --> 00:11:23,931
Having Ron on the show
shed light on an issue
267
00:11:23,839 --> 00:11:25,589
that never gets attention.
268
00:11:25,501 --> 00:11:28,542
That is also good journalism.
269
00:11:28,388 --> 00:11:30,594
But the story
feels innocuous.
270
00:11:30,483 --> 00:11:31,566
How?
271
00:11:31,512 --> 00:11:32,844
Because it's not journalism,
Mary Jane.
272
00:11:32,777 --> 00:11:34,610
It's advocacy.
273
00:11:34,518 --> 00:11:36,683
Oh, okay,
274
00:11:36,574 --> 00:11:38,573
so I'm an advocate
because the guest is black?
275
00:11:38,473 --> 00:11:39,723
Oh.
276
00:11:39,660 --> 00:11:41,985
Funny you never mentioned this with
any other guests we've had on before.
277
00:11:41,874 --> 00:11:43,249
Oh, please, don't try that.
278
00:11:43,180 --> 00:11:46,179
You know that you
should have pushed harder.
279
00:11:46,027 --> 00:11:48,650
You could have asked him is
it delusional for him to think
280
00:11:48,518 --> 00:11:51,684
that gardening is gonna prevent
poverty and gang violence,
281
00:11:51,524 --> 00:11:52,815
or you could have said, "Hey",
282
00:11:52,750 --> 00:11:54,499
"what do you have to say
about these critics
283
00:11:54,412 --> 00:11:56,619
that claim you're doing
this for the limelight?"
284
00:11:56,507 --> 00:11:59,381
Or--or is organizing
these dig-ins,
285
00:11:59,236 --> 00:12:01,943
where they plant crops
in abandoned lots,
286
00:12:01,807 --> 00:12:03,349
could it be sending a message
287
00:12:03,271 --> 00:12:05,436
that he's encouraging people
across the state to--
288
00:12:05,327 --> 00:12:07,611
to break the law?
289
00:12:07,502 --> 00:12:09,918
You could have asked him
any of those questions,
290
00:12:09,796 --> 00:12:13,504
and you didn't.
291
00:12:13,317 --> 00:12:16,142
No, I didn't.
292
00:12:25,142 --> 00:12:27,141
(Barbara)
Cut straight to the chase, Paul.
293
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,331
David pulling out of the deal
was just a minor setback.
294
00:12:29,216 --> 00:12:31,007
If David's out, then I'm out.
295
00:12:30,917 --> 00:12:32,124
It's not worth the risk.
296
00:12:32,064 --> 00:12:33,855
This is a small bump
in the road for us,
297
00:12:33,765 --> 00:12:35,931
but David was just one
of many angel investors
298
00:12:35,821 --> 00:12:38,979
that I could turn to.
299
00:12:38,826 --> 00:12:41,117
It's a firm no
on this one, Paul,
300
00:12:41,001 --> 00:12:45,501
but I may have something
that might pique your interest.
301
00:12:45,274 --> 00:12:48,148
There's a development
opportunity out in California.
302
00:12:48,003 --> 00:12:49,460
You may have heard
chatter of L.A.
303
00:12:49,387 --> 00:12:50,886
getting another
football team?
304
00:12:50,810 --> 00:12:53,642
Yes, I read there could be
a stadium built in downtown L.A.
305
00:12:53,499 --> 00:12:54,790
next to the Staples Center.
306
00:12:54,726 --> 00:12:56,350
It's gonna be in Englewood.
307
00:12:56,268 --> 00:12:58,142
The owner of
the St. Louis Rams
308
00:12:58,048 --> 00:13:00,796
just purchased 60 acres
of property,
309
00:13:00,657 --> 00:13:02,407
and my source
at the NFL tells me
310
00:13:02,319 --> 00:13:05,110
it's all for a new stadium.
311
00:13:04,970 --> 00:13:07,302
Unofficial, of course.
312
00:13:07,184 --> 00:13:11,183
Okay,
so how does this concern me?
313
00:13:10,981 --> 00:13:13,939
I want you to be my project
manager out in California.
314
00:13:13,790 --> 00:13:16,121
You'll put together a team
of like-minded agents
315
00:13:16,003 --> 00:13:18,211
and developers
from the community
316
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:22,599
and oversee purchases
of foreclosed properties.
317
00:13:22,371 --> 00:13:23,703
Now, when you say
put together a team
318
00:13:23,637 --> 00:13:26,427
of like-minded agents
from the community,
319
00:13:26,286 --> 00:13:28,536
I suppose you mean
black people.
320
00:13:28,422 --> 00:13:29,963
With your face
in the forefront,
321
00:13:29,886 --> 00:13:33,801
we'll sell it as a story
of rebuilding the community,
322
00:13:33,603 --> 00:13:36,227
and who better than the son
of the first black COO
323
00:13:36,095 --> 00:13:39,760
of Vantage Airlines
to lead the charge?
324
00:13:39,575 --> 00:13:42,409
You have done your
research on my family.
325
00:13:42,266 --> 00:13:44,597
We wouldn't be talking
otherwise,
326
00:13:44,479 --> 00:13:48,311
but this isn't just
about your family name.
327
00:13:48,117 --> 00:13:51,242
You're a risk taker
just like I am.
328
00:13:51,085 --> 00:13:54,709
Most people don't have the balls
to go after what they want,
329
00:13:54,526 --> 00:13:58,768
but I can tell that you do.
330
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,101
So what's the plan?
331
00:14:00,023 --> 00:14:04,105
We'll build exclusive
residences around the stadium.
332
00:14:03,899 --> 00:14:05,564
The real estate prices
will explode
333
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,521
once the stadium
goes into production.
334
00:14:07,419 --> 00:14:09,293
And what kind of upside
are we talking about here?
335
00:14:09,198 --> 00:14:11,405
$25 million minimum,
336
00:14:11,294 --> 00:14:13,752
and that's just your cut.
337
00:14:13,628 --> 00:14:15,960
Once you put together
your team of buyers,
338
00:14:15,843 --> 00:14:18,259
you'll acquire properties
from public auction
339
00:14:18,137 --> 00:14:20,510
at the lowest price point
340
00:14:20,390 --> 00:14:22,473
so that we can maximize
our profits.
341
00:14:22,368 --> 00:14:24,617
And I can only do that
by making sure my team
342
00:14:24,504 --> 00:14:28,996
has the ability to drive
the price of the property down.
343
00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:33,902
We're talking bid rigging.
344
00:14:33,759 --> 00:14:36,674
Two companies in San Francisco
just went down for this.
345
00:14:36,527 --> 00:14:38,818
I can't do much with 25 mil
if I'm locked up for ten years.
346
00:14:38,702 --> 00:14:40,409
I'm not asking you
to break the law.
347
00:14:40,324 --> 00:14:42,699
I'm just asking you
to get it done.
348
00:14:42,579 --> 00:14:44,078
I think my offer's
a great incentive.
349
00:14:44,003 --> 00:14:45,710
And what if things
don't work out,
350
00:14:45,624 --> 00:14:46,915
if the location changes
351
00:14:46,850 --> 00:14:49,057
or L.A. doesn't get
another football team?
352
00:14:48,946 --> 00:14:51,903
Then I own a lot of property
in Englewood,
353
00:14:51,754 --> 00:14:54,962
and you get to live rent-free
in my Marina del Ray development
354
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,548
with $2 million
over three years.
355
00:14:58,358 --> 00:15:00,357
Think about it
and get back to me.
356
00:15:00,257 --> 00:15:03,507
I've got to move quickly
on this opportunity.
357
00:15:03,343 --> 00:15:05,292
Okay.
358
00:15:23,592 --> 00:15:26,508
- Hey, I'm going home.
- Oh, okay, cool.
359
00:15:26,361 --> 00:15:27,985
Um,
360
00:15:27,903 --> 00:15:30,027
I'll send over some story
areas in a couple hours.
361
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,704
Okay.
362
00:15:32,768 --> 00:15:34,558
Fine.
363
00:15:34,468 --> 00:15:36,051
Why don't you come in
and talk to me so our business
364
00:15:35,971 --> 00:15:37,545
isn't out in the street?
365
00:15:54,125 --> 00:15:57,124
MJ,
366
00:15:56,973 --> 00:15:59,263
I feel like you've
367
00:15:59,147 --> 00:16:02,730
pushed me out
of something that was ours.
368
00:16:02,549 --> 00:16:06,631
No, I took the lead
in our direction,
369
00:16:06,425 --> 00:16:08,174
but, Kara, I heard you today,
and I--
370
00:16:08,086 --> 00:16:11,419
No, I mean, like,
when we met in New York,
371
00:16:11,250 --> 00:16:13,456
we just clicked, you know?
372
00:16:13,345 --> 00:16:14,761
We had the same dreams.
373
00:16:14,690 --> 00:16:15,898
It was like--
374
00:16:15,838 --> 00:16:18,879
it was just like
this perfect puzzle that fit,
375
00:16:18,725 --> 00:16:20,557
and yeah, we fought,
376
00:16:20,465 --> 00:16:22,672
but we made magic.
377
00:16:22,561 --> 00:16:24,602
We still make magic.
378
00:16:24,499 --> 00:16:25,956
I mean, yes, we fight.
379
00:16:25,883 --> 00:16:29,132
That's our process,
but it makes us both better.
380
00:16:28,968 --> 00:16:32,051
Yeah, but lately this fighting
thing is just--
381
00:16:31,896 --> 00:16:33,644
it's like Chinese
water torture,
382
00:16:33,556 --> 00:16:34,972
and I--
383
00:16:34,901 --> 00:16:36,734
I just can't do it anymore.
384
00:16:36,642 --> 00:16:38,933
Look, I--I want to stay
with this direction.
385
00:16:38,817 --> 00:16:41,232
We are holding our quarter-hour
rating numbers, so--
386
00:16:41,110 --> 00:16:43,942
It's not even about
the new stories.
387
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,799
It's--I just really feel
like I have to go after
388
00:16:46,647 --> 00:16:48,063
what I want
389
00:16:47,992 --> 00:16:50,283
just like you're going
after what you want,
390
00:16:50,168 --> 00:16:52,209
and our friendship
is too important to me
391
00:16:52,106 --> 00:16:56,604
to let it completely
fall apart.
392
00:16:56,376 --> 00:17:00,242
I just feel like we're going
in two different directions.
393
00:17:01,913 --> 00:17:05,204
Are you quitting?
394
00:17:05,038 --> 00:17:07,620
Honestly,
395
00:17:07,490 --> 00:17:09,447
I don't even know
if SNC is the right place
396
00:17:09,348 --> 00:17:11,431
for me anymore.
397
00:17:11,326 --> 00:17:13,575
Do you have another job offer
somewhere else?
398
00:17:13,462 --> 00:17:15,962
No, no, no, no.
399
00:17:15,836 --> 00:17:19,201
But I can't just wish
to be on network.
400
00:17:21,688 --> 00:17:24,396
Wow.
401
00:17:24,259 --> 00:17:25,800
I'm not leaving right now.
402
00:17:25,723 --> 00:17:29,638
I mean, I have nowhere to go.
403
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,564
I'm just--
404
00:17:31,457 --> 00:17:34,832
I'm not interested in this
dynamic between us anymore.
405
00:17:34,662 --> 00:17:37,452
I can try and be nicer.
406
00:17:37,311 --> 00:17:38,851
Kara, come on.
407
00:17:38,774 --> 00:17:40,190
Well, you know, honey,
408
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,952
I actually think that you
gave me the push I needed.
409
00:17:43,758 --> 00:17:47,757
You know,
after losing John and my kids,
410
00:17:47,555 --> 00:17:50,512
I-- I didn't want
to leave here too,
411
00:17:50,362 --> 00:17:54,028
but I--I think
it's time to go,
412
00:17:53,843 --> 00:17:56,383
you know?
413
00:17:56,255 --> 00:18:00,004
I--I just really do.
414
00:17:59,814 --> 00:18:04,522
I can't believe
you're breaking up with me.
415
00:18:04,284 --> 00:18:06,734
I just hope
we can still be friends.
416
00:18:10,097 --> 00:18:13,506
This might be the most
mature breakup I've ever had.
417
00:18:16,980 --> 00:18:18,937
Did you really just use
the "Let's be friends" line
418
00:18:18,838 --> 00:18:22,129
on me though?
419
00:18:21,963 --> 00:18:23,662
I mean it.
420
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,677
[jazzy music]
421
00:18:28,528 --> 00:18:31,319
422
00:18:31,178 --> 00:18:32,177
Mr. DeWitt.
423
00:18:32,127 --> 00:18:33,501
- Hey.
- Glad to see you again.
424
00:18:33,432 --> 00:18:35,056
- Good to see you.
- Is everything to your liking?
425
00:18:34,975 --> 00:18:36,182
Everything's perfect,
426
00:18:36,121 --> 00:18:38,617
but I think now
would be a good time--
427
00:18:38,492 --> 00:18:41,245
To have them start on
the chocolate souffl?.
428
00:18:41,106 --> 00:18:42,729
It's in the oven.
Should be out shortly.
429
00:18:42,647 --> 00:18:46,480
- You read my mind.
- That's my job.
430
00:18:46,286 --> 00:18:47,868
You're gonna love
this chocolate souffl?.
431
00:18:47,789 --> 00:18:49,121
It melts in your mouth.
432
00:18:49,054 --> 00:18:52,262
Well, I can't wait
to taste it.
433
00:18:52,100 --> 00:18:54,974
- Did you date her?
- Who?
434
00:18:54,829 --> 00:18:56,578
Big booty Trudy,
the waitress.
435
00:18:56,490 --> 00:18:59,281
Did you date her?
436
00:18:59,141 --> 00:19:01,472
Where's this coming from?
437
00:19:01,354 --> 00:19:03,270
Shop girl at one of
my favorite boutiques
438
00:19:03,174 --> 00:19:05,340
had a lot to say about you,
439
00:19:05,231 --> 00:19:07,397
namely that you only date
20-somethings
440
00:19:07,288 --> 00:19:09,078
and you refuse to ejaculate.
441
00:19:08,988 --> 00:19:12,571
- Wow.
- But that's just what I heard.
442
00:19:12,390 --> 00:19:14,180
Well, she did have a lot
to say about me.
443
00:19:14,090 --> 00:19:15,923
- Yes, she did.
- Are you done?
444
00:19:15,830 --> 00:19:17,787
Yeah.
445
00:19:17,689 --> 00:19:19,597
Thank you.
446
00:19:21,842 --> 00:19:23,800
You mind if I ask
the shop girl's name?
447
00:19:23,701 --> 00:19:26,525
There was more than one?
448
00:19:29,870 --> 00:19:31,328
You know, there was a time
I had a penchant
449
00:19:31,255 --> 00:19:33,504
for younger women.
450
00:19:33,391 --> 00:19:36,098
I liked their availability,
451
00:19:35,961 --> 00:19:38,543
their flexibility.
452
00:19:38,413 --> 00:19:40,787
I was just fixated
on my career,
453
00:19:40,667 --> 00:19:42,958
but I'm not in that place
anymore.
454
00:19:42,843 --> 00:19:45,009
So you were a player?
455
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:48,023
I guess for those
who want to look
456
00:19:47,865 --> 00:19:49,448
at the victimization in this
457
00:19:49,369 --> 00:19:53,784
and call it that.
458
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,976
So what about the whole
non-ejaculative aspect?
459
00:19:57,753 --> 00:20:00,377
What's up with that?
460
00:20:00,244 --> 00:20:04,195
For me, it makes
the arousal last longer.
461
00:20:04,001 --> 00:20:05,835
It's a way
to keep me engaged.
462
00:20:05,743 --> 00:20:07,116
Oh.
463
00:20:07,047 --> 00:20:09,546
And here I was thinking
it was my wit
464
00:20:09,420 --> 00:20:11,836
and sparkling personality.
465
00:20:11,715 --> 00:20:15,172
Go figure.
466
00:20:14,997 --> 00:20:17,864
When you're ready to
hear me, let me know.
467
00:20:21,523 --> 00:20:26,063
One chocolate souffl?
and two spoons.
468
00:20:25,833 --> 00:20:27,333
Enjoy.
469
00:20:27,258 --> 00:20:30,257
[light melody]
470
00:20:30,105 --> 00:20:38,105
471
00:20:47,270 --> 00:20:55,270
472
00:21:04,355 --> 00:21:12,355
473
00:21:15,826 --> 00:21:18,199
(Valerie) Well, you and
Mary Jane are like sisters.
474
00:21:18,079 --> 00:21:20,036
You've been friends
since childhood.
475
00:21:19,938 --> 00:21:21,730
I'm sure that things
will work out.
476
00:21:21,639 --> 00:21:23,845
Too much has happened.
477
00:21:23,734 --> 00:21:25,109
I don't even know
where to start.
478
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,663
Well, you know what? Maybe the
distance is good right now,
479
00:21:27,531 --> 00:21:31,156
give you the time and space
to continue working on yourself.
480
00:21:30,973 --> 00:21:34,597
But right now
I just feel stuck.
481
00:21:34,414 --> 00:21:36,621
All these secrets
between me and Dave
482
00:21:36,510 --> 00:21:41,301
are just getting in between
our relationships.
483
00:21:41,058 --> 00:21:43,474
Lisa, are you
still taking your meds?
484
00:21:43,352 --> 00:21:44,725
I resent that, Valerie.
485
00:21:44,657 --> 00:21:46,781
Of course I'm taking my meds.
486
00:21:46,674 --> 00:21:49,174
It's just--
I feel the more I say or do,
487
00:21:49,048 --> 00:21:52,005
the more I'm misunderstood,
which makes me seem crazy.
488
00:21:51,855 --> 00:21:53,270
Now, I didn't say
you were crazy.
489
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,525
No, not as long
as I'm on my meds, right?
490
00:21:58,737 --> 00:22:01,611
I just feel
like I'm drowning,
491
00:22:01,466 --> 00:22:02,923
and no one wants to save me
492
00:22:02,850 --> 00:22:05,391
for fear that
I'll pull them in with me.
493
00:22:05,263 --> 00:22:07,262
I just think
that we should sit down,
494
00:22:07,161 --> 00:22:10,618
discuss it, be free, and have
everything out in the open.
495
00:22:10,444 --> 00:22:11,777
No.
496
00:22:11,710 --> 00:22:13,001
Lisa, listen to me.
497
00:22:12,936 --> 00:22:15,517
It's too much.
It's just too much.
498
00:22:15,387 --> 00:22:18,136
It's a betrayal.
499
00:22:17,997 --> 00:22:19,455
Now, if you're trying
to save your relationship
500
00:22:19,382 --> 00:22:22,415
with Mary Jane, this is not
the way to handle it.
501
00:22:23,891 --> 00:22:28,848
So saying nothing
helps Mary Jane,
502
00:22:28,597 --> 00:22:31,388
but if I keep it
all bottled in,
503
00:22:31,247 --> 00:22:34,829
how do I help myself?
504
00:22:34,648 --> 00:22:36,265
You forgive yourself.
505
00:22:48,886 --> 00:22:52,003
[ringtone chiming]
506
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,350
You aren't gonna
believe this.
507
00:22:58,260 --> 00:23:00,092
Cynthia called in sick
tonight.
508
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,166
She did? What happened?
509
00:23:01,107 --> 00:23:02,898
Who gives a rat's ass?
510
00:23:02,808 --> 00:23:06,431
Anyway, I half-jokingly
recommended to the network
511
00:23:06,248 --> 00:23:07,623
that you do it 'cause I didn't
think they'd go for it
512
00:23:07,554 --> 00:23:09,261
because of your
blatant-ass disrespect
513
00:23:09,176 --> 00:23:10,967
and your ignoring
their wishes and whatnot,
514
00:23:10,877 --> 00:23:12,501
but they were actually
considering it.
515
00:23:12,419 --> 00:23:15,418
It's going up the chain
as we speak, right now.
516
00:23:15,267 --> 00:23:17,641
- For real?
- For real. For real!
517
00:23:17,521 --> 00:23:20,061
So look, forget about everything
I said last night.
518
00:23:19,933 --> 00:23:21,509
I am on my period,
519
00:23:21,435 --> 00:23:24,143
and I cannot be held accountable
for any of my crazy,
520
00:23:24,007 --> 00:23:25,965
emotional, stupid decisions.
521
00:23:25,866 --> 00:23:27,990
I mean, I don't like
the way we fight.
522
00:23:27,883 --> 00:23:28,965
They're seriously
considering me?
523
00:23:28,911 --> 00:23:31,861
- Yes!
- Oh, g--oh, mm.
524
00:23:32,826 --> 00:23:35,451
It hasn't been confirmed yet,
but I think it's gonna happen.
525
00:23:35,318 --> 00:23:38,317
I do. I think it's gonna--
526
00:23:38,166 --> 00:23:39,790
I think it's gonna happen.
527
00:23:39,709 --> 00:23:41,000
I get to do
Prime Time tonight?
528
00:23:40,935 --> 00:23:42,767
- Yes!
- I'ma do Prime Time tonight?
529
00:23:42,675 --> 00:23:44,966
- Yes! Yes!
- Oh.
530
00:23:44,850 --> 00:23:47,307
- Yes, I know.
- Mm.
531
00:23:47,183 --> 00:23:49,515
It's probably a nip and tuck
532
00:23:49,398 --> 00:23:50,397
It's probably...
533
00:23:50,347 --> 00:23:51,513
(both)
A nip and tuck
534
00:23:51,455 --> 00:23:53,454
It's probably
gonna take two weeks
535
00:23:53,353 --> 00:23:55,060
It's probably gonna
take two weeks
536
00:23:54,975 --> 00:23:57,016
-
At least two weeks

At least two weeks

[percussive music]
538
00:23:59,602 --> 00:24:07,602
539
00:24:16,688 --> 00:24:19,937
540
00:24:19,772 --> 00:24:21,014
Good evening.
541
00:24:23,016 --> 00:24:24,133
Good evening.
542
00:24:24,083 --> 00:24:28,708
543
00:24:28,474 --> 00:24:30,431
Good evening,
544
00:24:30,332 --> 00:24:31,873
I'm Mary Jane Paul.
545
00:24:31,796 --> 00:24:39,796
546
00:24:40,892 --> 00:24:42,975
(Mary Jane)
I'm Mary Jane Paul.
547
00:24:42,870 --> 00:24:50,368
548
00:24:49,988 --> 00:24:51,737
(Mary Jane)
I'm Mary Jane Paul.
549
00:24:51,649 --> 00:24:56,815
550
00:24:56,554 --> 00:25:00,553
Good evening,
I'm Mary Jane Paul.
551
00:25:00,351 --> 00:25:08,351

00:25:10,792 --> 00:25:18,792
554
00:25:34,087 --> 00:25:35,335
All right, here we go.
555
00:25:35,273 --> 00:25:39,473
In five, four, three, two...
556
00:25:41,325 --> 00:25:42,699
[upbeat theme music]
557
00:25:42,630 --> 00:25:43,920
Good evening,
I'm Mary Jane Paul
558
00:25:43,856 --> 00:25:45,564
filling in for Cynthia Phillips.
559
00:25:45,478 --> 00:25:48,386
Welcome to Prime Time News.
560
00:25:52,293 --> 00:25:53,544
(Mary Jane)
Coming up tonight,
561
00:25:53,481 --> 00:25:56,579
fracking is likely to make it
on the ballot in Colorado,
562
00:25:56,438 --> 00:25:59,539
the first measure in the nation
to ask its state's voters
563
00:25:59,383 --> 00:26:01,435
to sharply limit
energy development
564
00:26:01,331 --> 00:26:04,419
and likely to pit Democrats
against each other.
565
00:26:04,294 --> 00:26:07,149
(Mary Jane on monitor) Where's the beef?
Hopefully nowhere near your plate,
566
00:26:07,005 --> 00:26:09,475
as the FDA has issued a recall
of over 80,000 pounds of beef--
567
00:26:09,350 --> 00:26:11,322
Camera two, widen that shot
as she takes us out.
568
00:26:11,223 --> 00:26:13,146
(man) - Okay.
(Mary Jane) - Up next, I'm sitting down
569
00:26:13,049 --> 00:26:16,065
with education crusader
Elizabeth Foy.
570
00:26:15,955 --> 00:26:18,074
And we're clear.
571
00:26:18,075 --> 00:26:19,782
(man) Elizabeth Foy
is on her way down.
572
00:26:19,697 --> 00:26:21,321
The questions
are in the monitor.
573
00:26:21,239 --> 00:26:24,313
[indistinct chatter]
574
00:26:25,709 --> 00:26:27,491
[phone buzzes]
575
00:26:44,849 --> 00:26:45,848
Elizabeth Foy?
576
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:47,424
- Hi.
- It's great to meet you.
577
00:26:47,342 --> 00:26:48,709
- Mary Jane Paul.
- Oh.
578
00:26:48,646 --> 00:26:50,271
It's a bummer
you got stuck with me,
579
00:26:50,190 --> 00:26:51,563
but I will do my best.
580
00:26:51,494 --> 00:26:52,827
Not at all.
581
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,801
I'm actually a big fan
of your show.
582
00:26:54,698 --> 00:26:55,989
Oh, thank you.
583
00:26:55,925 --> 00:26:58,965
We're hot in ten seconds.
584
00:26:58,811 --> 00:27:00,143
Excuse me, ladies,
585
00:27:00,077 --> 00:27:04,076
we're going live
in five, four, three...
586
00:27:03,873 --> 00:27:05,914
Tonight's guest is a former
high school educator
587
00:27:05,812 --> 00:27:07,478
who has written
a best-selling book,
588
00:27:07,394 --> 00:27:08,893
Charting a Better Course.
589
00:27:08,818 --> 00:27:11,817
- Elizabeth Foy, welcome.
- Thank you.
590
00:27:11,665 --> 00:27:14,081
As an educator, you've really
been at the forefront
591
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,291
of debating the benefits
of charter schools
592
00:27:16,173 --> 00:27:18,172
over traditional
public schools.
593
00:27:18,071 --> 00:27:20,362
You know, I don't feel like
there's much of a debate
594
00:27:20,247 --> 00:27:23,371
when families and communities
get to decide what's best
595
00:27:23,213 --> 00:27:25,588
for their children
versus some statewide mandate.
596
00:27:25,469 --> 00:27:26,884
Well, like what?
597
00:27:26,813 --> 00:27:27,979
Well, you know,
charter schools
598
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,585
often get fewer
tax dollars per student
599
00:27:30,451 --> 00:27:33,534
than regular public schools,
but we work harder,
600
00:27:33,378 --> 00:27:35,044
and we get better results.
601
00:27:34,961 --> 00:27:37,418
We have smaller class sizes,
602
00:27:37,294 --> 00:27:40,334
so we tend to have
a more hands-on approach,
603
00:27:40,180 --> 00:27:43,471
from the teachers
to the students to the parents,
604
00:27:43,305 --> 00:27:46,096
and the result is
better student achievement,
605
00:27:45,955 --> 00:27:47,954
greater parent satisfaction,
606
00:27:47,854 --> 00:27:49,644
and more vibrant
school communities.
607
00:27:49,554 --> 00:27:51,553
Good job. Keep it moving.
608
00:27:51,452 --> 00:27:54,368
(Mary Jane) Your book is
gaining a lot of momentum.
609
00:27:54,221 --> 00:27:56,512
Well, you know,
I think it's because the book,
610
00:27:56,396 --> 00:27:58,812
it just does a good job
of breaking down
611
00:27:58,691 --> 00:28:00,897
the benefits
of charter schools in a way
612
00:28:00,786 --> 00:28:03,119
that anybody can understand,
you know?
613
00:28:03,001 --> 00:28:05,125
It gets the politics
out of the way,
614
00:28:05,018 --> 00:28:06,558
and it allows the parents
to decide
615
00:28:06,481 --> 00:28:08,480
what's best for their child.
616
00:28:08,379 --> 00:28:10,754
Well, it's interesting
that you mention politics,
617
00:28:10,634 --> 00:28:12,633
because some are arguing
618
00:28:12,533 --> 00:28:14,865
that your best-selling book
is published by a foundation
619
00:28:14,747 --> 00:28:17,580
that supports
neo-racist authors.
620
00:28:17,437 --> 00:28:18,477
Whoa.
621
00:28:18,426 --> 00:28:20,050
Excuse me?
622
00:28:19,968 --> 00:28:22,092
Your book is published
by Encounter Books,
623
00:28:21,985 --> 00:28:23,776
which is funded by
the Bradley Foundation.
624
00:28:23,686 --> 00:28:26,227
In fact, the Linda
and Harry Bradley Foundation
625
00:28:26,099 --> 00:28:28,597
was at the forefront
in funding the arguments
626
00:28:28,471 --> 00:28:30,262
for faith-based funding
and school vouchers,
627
00:28:30,172 --> 00:28:32,546
most specifically as a way
to lure back
628
00:28:32,426 --> 00:28:34,258
the black Democratic vote
to the GOP
629
00:28:34,166 --> 00:28:35,374
during the Bush
administration.
630
00:28:35,314 --> 00:28:36,730
I'm--I'm sorry.
631
00:28:36,659 --> 00:28:38,574
- I don't see the connection.
- This is not an ambush.
632
00:28:38,477 --> 00:28:40,018
Oh, well, let me
connect the dots for you.
633
00:28:39,941 --> 00:28:43,315
- The thought is this.
- What is she doing?
634
00:28:43,145 --> 00:28:44,852
This is not 60 Minutes.
635
00:28:44,766 --> 00:28:46,182
You need to get her in and out,
636
00:28:46,111 --> 00:28:48,194
so get to
the prepared questions.
637
00:28:48,089 --> 00:28:50,921
I thought it was a very natural
follow-up question.
638
00:28:50,778 --> 00:28:52,109
(Foy) I'm an educator.
639
00:28:52,042 --> 00:28:54,208
(Foy)
I know how to teach children,
640
00:28:54,099 --> 00:28:56,557
and I know that a program
that allows families
641
00:28:56,433 --> 00:28:58,474
to have more choice
has proven more successful.
642
00:28:58,372 --> 00:28:59,829
She got you back on book.
643
00:28:59,756 --> 00:29:01,130
Stay with the book.
644
00:29:01,061 --> 00:29:02,601
But weren't you recently
at a church in Alabama
645
00:29:02,524 --> 00:29:04,149
where you and
Congressman Boyd
646
00:29:04,067 --> 00:29:07,524
passed out your book
to the entire congregation?
647
00:29:07,349 --> 00:29:08,931
I'm--I'm sorry.
Is that a crime?
648
00:29:08,852 --> 00:29:10,393
Well, it could be,
649
00:29:10,316 --> 00:29:12,690
because the books were bought
with campaign monies.
650
00:29:12,570 --> 00:29:14,652
See, critics argue
that your book tour is merely
651
00:29:14,547 --> 00:29:17,046
the blueprint for the No Child
Left Behind model
652
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,002
that the Republicans used
during the Bush administration,
653
00:29:19,846 --> 00:29:22,804
you know, where they tried to rally
the black churches for their support
654
00:29:22,655 --> 00:29:24,071
I don't know.
655
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,415
(Mary Jane)
Using faith-based initiatives.
656
00:29:25,344 --> 00:29:27,718
Some go as far to say
as promising tax dollars
657
00:29:27,599 --> 00:29:29,431
for charter school funding
in exchange
658
00:29:29,339 --> 00:29:31,338
for the black vote and support
of the voucher program.
659
00:29:31,237 --> 00:29:32,528
You know what?
660
00:29:32,463 --> 00:29:34,713
When I agreed to appear
on this program,
661
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,056
I was going to be interviewed
by Cynthia,
662
00:29:36,932 --> 00:29:39,140
not by you
and your liberal agenda.
663
00:29:39,029 --> 00:29:40,362
I feel ambushed.
664
00:29:40,295 --> 00:29:41,459
I feel attacked.
665
00:29:41,401 --> 00:29:43,068
I'm not attacking you,
Miss Foy.
666
00:29:42,984 --> 00:29:45,691
I'm simply asking you
if you think that your book
667
00:29:45,555 --> 00:29:47,679
is being used
as a political football.
668
00:29:47,572 --> 00:29:50,404
Stop badgering her
and get back on topic.
669
00:29:50,261 --> 00:29:52,177
Okay, all right.
670
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,537
(Mary Jane) Look, I'm not
saying that you were complicit.
671
00:29:53,464 --> 00:29:55,630
I'm asking you if you knew
or thought that your book
672
00:29:55,521 --> 00:29:57,638
was being used to further
a political agenda?
673
00:29:57,537 --> 00:29:59,745
- You've read my book.
- Well, I've seen your show,
674
00:29:59,634 --> 00:30:01,418
and you're a race baiter.
675
00:30:01,334 --> 00:30:02,792
This segment was supposed
to focus on her book!
676
00:30:02,719 --> 00:30:03,968
What is this?
677
00:30:03,906 --> 00:30:06,447
What do you want her to do,
some kind of fluff piece?
678
00:30:06,318 --> 00:30:08,192
She's asking the questions
that people really want to know.
679
00:30:08,098 --> 00:30:10,347
Mary Jane going rogue
upsets the politics
680
00:30:10,234 --> 00:30:11,566
of how we book guests,
681
00:30:11,499 --> 00:30:13,415
but you wouldn't know that
working daytime.
682
00:30:13,319 --> 00:30:15,686
Maybe these Maury Povich tactics
work for what you do,
683
00:30:15,572 --> 00:30:16,988
but it's not gonna happen here.
684
00:30:16,917 --> 00:30:19,125
Excuse me, there's nothing
sensational about this.
685
00:30:19,014 --> 00:30:20,513
It's called journalism.
686
00:30:20,438 --> 00:30:22,937
No, I'm just following up
on your responses.
687
00:30:22,811 --> 00:30:24,310
You have the opportunity
688
00:30:24,235 --> 00:30:25,859
to explain your position
right here, right now.
689
00:30:25,777 --> 00:30:27,019
No.
690
00:30:26,963 --> 00:30:28,088
And I would love it
if you did that.
691
00:30:28,031 --> 00:30:29,155
No, you know what?
692
00:30:29,099 --> 00:30:31,640
I'm done playing these games.
693
00:30:31,512 --> 00:30:33,219
(Foy) I watched your
show the other night,
694
00:30:33,133 --> 00:30:35,174
and you know
what your problem is?
695
00:30:35,072 --> 00:30:38,612
You think the world sees you
as an ugly black woman,
696
00:30:38,433 --> 00:30:41,099
always the victim,
always misunderstood,
697
00:30:40,964 --> 00:30:43,796
and you're really
just a broken record.
698
00:30:43,653 --> 00:30:46,360
- Oh.
- Miss Foy, let's just talk.
699
00:30:46,224 --> 00:30:47,348
- Yeah.
- Let's talk about that.
700
00:30:47,292 --> 00:30:48,208
Let's talk.
701
00:30:48,162 --> 00:30:49,620
Okay,
702
00:30:49,547 --> 00:30:52,379
because where I'm sitting,
you're a woman.
703
00:30:52,236 --> 00:30:55,110
I'm a woman, but your mistake
is that you seem to think
704
00:30:54,965 --> 00:30:57,547
that I only see things
through the prism of race
705
00:30:57,417 --> 00:31:00,416
because I have black guests
and I'm black,
706
00:31:00,264 --> 00:31:01,972
but just because
you're Caucasian,
707
00:31:01,887 --> 00:31:04,761
that doesn't make you immune
from discrimination
708
00:31:04,616 --> 00:31:07,073
or being ignored as a woman.
709
00:31:06,949 --> 00:31:09,114
If you were really
paying attention to my show,
710
00:31:09,005 --> 00:31:11,838
you would see that we're not
all that different at all.
711
00:31:11,695 --> 00:31:14,069
I mean, granted, we may not
agree on certain issues,
712
00:31:13,949 --> 00:31:15,656
but we're both fighting
to be heard
713
00:31:15,570 --> 00:31:18,569
and fighting to be taken
seriously and to be seen.
714
00:31:18,418 --> 00:31:21,250
So when it comes down to it,
715
00:31:21,107 --> 00:31:23,732
when I look at you,
716
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,132
I see an ugly black woman too.
717
00:31:28,346 --> 00:31:30,677
- Camera there, steady.
- Off the charts.
718
00:31:30,559 --> 00:31:32,226
(Mary Jane)
I'd like to thank Elizabeth Foy,
719
00:31:32,142 --> 00:31:33,849
author of
Charting a Better Course,
720
00:31:33,764 --> 00:31:36,138
for sitting in the hot seat
with me tonight.
721
00:31:36,018 --> 00:31:39,266
[upbeat theme music]
722
00:31:39,102 --> 00:31:40,185
Don't go anywhere.
723
00:31:40,131 --> 00:31:42,790
We'll be right back
after the break.
724
00:31:49,028 --> 00:31:50,519
[phone chimes]
725
00:31:51,985 --> 00:31:53,600
[phone chiming]
726
00:31:54,663 --> 00:31:56,763
[phone chiming]
727
00:32:00,648 --> 00:32:02,073
[sighs]
728
00:32:02,002 --> 00:32:03,927
- Don't do it.
- Yeah.
729
00:32:03,830 --> 00:32:05,329
Mm-mm.
730
00:32:05,253 --> 00:32:06,710
We ain't ready for
Twitter yet.
731
00:32:06,637 --> 00:32:09,628
[phone chiming repeatedly]
732
00:32:10,149 --> 00:32:12,615
[knocking] Hey, son.
733
00:32:12,491 --> 00:32:13,884
Hey, what's up, pops?
734
00:32:13,814 --> 00:32:16,752
I had a great round of golf
today with Jeff Lynnwood.
735
00:32:16,604 --> 00:32:17,936
How's Mr. Lynnwood doing?
736
00:32:17,869 --> 00:32:19,327
Great, just great.
737
00:32:19,254 --> 00:32:21,086
Actually, he's doing
a real estate deal
738
00:32:20,994 --> 00:32:22,535
down in Coral Gables,
739
00:32:22,458 --> 00:32:23,581
and he's looking for
some people
740
00:32:23,525 --> 00:32:25,650
to help him
develop the project,
741
00:32:25,543 --> 00:32:28,708
and I told him that my son
742
00:32:28,548 --> 00:32:31,638
is getting his Master's degree
in architecture.
743
00:32:31,482 --> 00:32:34,190
Hey, you could get in
on the ground floor.
744
00:32:34,053 --> 00:32:36,459
I think Jeff said something
like $30,000 base salary
745
00:32:36,338 --> 00:32:38,354
plus commission.
- Come on, dad.
746
00:32:38,252 --> 00:32:42,577
You know I didn't go to graduate
school to work for a base salary.
747
00:32:42,359 --> 00:32:44,199
Look, don't let the $30,000
distract you
748
00:32:44,106 --> 00:32:46,597
from the bigger picture, son.
749
00:32:48,109 --> 00:32:50,150
I just, um--
750
00:32:50,047 --> 00:32:52,338
I just don't know
if it's right for me.
751
00:32:52,223 --> 00:32:55,597
What?
752
00:32:55,426 --> 00:32:58,716
To work hard and make
upwards of $2 to 5 million
753
00:32:58,550 --> 00:33:01,258
doesn't appeal to you?
754
00:33:01,122 --> 00:33:04,163
I mean, that's what
he's putting in front of you,
755
00:33:04,009 --> 00:33:07,458
not to mention that it would
catapult you into your field.
756
00:33:14,094 --> 00:33:16,593
Just follow up with Jeff
757
00:33:16,467 --> 00:33:19,007
and see what
the man has to say?
758
00:33:18,879 --> 00:33:21,455
He's expecting your call.
759
00:33:21,331 --> 00:33:23,206
Yes, sir.
760
00:33:23,112 --> 00:33:31,112
761
00:33:39,209 --> 00:33:47,209
762
00:33:56,295 --> 00:34:04,295
763
00:34:13,537 --> 00:34:15,995
764
00:34:15,871 --> 00:34:18,912
[line ringing]
765
00:34:18,759 --> 00:34:20,299
(Kara) Hello?
766
00:34:20,221 --> 00:34:22,178
I love my house, Kara.
767
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:23,288
I don't want to lose
my house.
768
00:34:23,228 --> 00:34:25,012
(Kara) You're not gonna
lose your house.
769
00:34:24,928 --> 00:34:26,344
(Kara)
Don't worry. No one's called me.
770
00:34:26,273 --> 00:34:27,939
Me neither,
but I think the fact
771
00:34:27,855 --> 00:34:30,764
that neither one of us has heard
anything can't be a good sign.
772
00:34:30,623 --> 00:34:32,206
(Kara)
Or it's not a sign at all.
773
00:34:32,126 --> 00:34:33,958
Maybe nobody cares.
774
00:34:33,866 --> 00:34:36,657
MJ, you did a hell of a job
anchoring a prime time show,
775
00:34:36,516 --> 00:34:38,932
and you need to focus on that
and enjoy the moment.
776
00:34:38,811 --> 00:34:41,019
Yeah, you're--
777
00:34:40,907 --> 00:34:43,947
You're right. You're right.
778
00:34:43,794 --> 00:34:45,376
(Kara)
All right, do me a favor.
779
00:34:45,297 --> 00:34:46,837
Don't take any calls, okay?
780
00:34:46,759 --> 00:34:48,967
Just take the night off,
relax,
781
00:34:48,856 --> 00:34:51,189
and we'll deal with whatever
comes next in the morning.
782
00:34:51,071 --> 00:34:53,111
Did you say "we"?
783
00:34:53,009 --> 00:34:54,925
(Kara) Yes, I did.
784
00:34:54,828 --> 00:34:58,368
785
00:34:58,190 --> 00:34:59,564
All right.
786
00:34:59,495 --> 00:35:00,703
(Kara)
All right, mama, good night.
787
00:35:00,642 --> 00:35:02,641
[phone beeps]
788
00:35:02,541 --> 00:35:05,707
789
00:35:05,547 --> 00:35:08,663
[phone ringing]
790
00:35:12,665 --> 00:35:13,998
Hello?
791
00:35:13,931 --> 00:35:15,638
(Sheldon)
I'm an ugly black woman too,
792
00:35:15,552 --> 00:35:18,676
just wanting to be heard.
793
00:35:18,519 --> 00:35:21,393
I'm listening.
794
00:35:21,248 --> 00:35:23,622
If we're gonna
take a swing at this,
795
00:35:23,502 --> 00:35:25,293
you can't shut me out,
796
00:35:25,203 --> 00:35:27,868
and I can tell you're pulling back.
- Yeah, of course.
797
00:35:27,733 --> 00:35:30,649
I'm afraid I'm gonna get hurt.
798
00:35:30,502 --> 00:35:34,168
Listen, I know you found out
some things about me
799
00:35:33,983 --> 00:35:37,398
that have accelerated this dance
that we're doing.
800
00:35:37,225 --> 00:35:38,850
(Sheldon)
I don't have anything to hide,
801
00:35:38,769 --> 00:35:42,176
but I certainly didn't want you
to find out about me like that.
802
00:35:43,555 --> 00:35:45,303
Look, you're, um--
803
00:35:45,215 --> 00:35:49,465
you're not like any woman
that I've dated before.
804
00:35:49,250 --> 00:35:52,165
It used to be just about sex,
805
00:35:52,018 --> 00:35:56,260
but with you I'm engaged,
806
00:35:56,051 --> 00:35:58,759
and I want more,
807
00:35:58,622 --> 00:36:02,371
and for me that's a first.
808
00:36:02,182 --> 00:36:03,348
[doorbell rings]
809
00:36:03,290 --> 00:36:04,747
Uh, w--uh,
810
00:36:04,674 --> 00:36:08,583
can you hold on for a second?
811
00:36:08,391 --> 00:36:10,175
[phone beeps] Oh, g--
812
00:36:13,295 --> 00:36:15,121
Hey, sexy.
813
00:36:15,035 --> 00:36:17,201
I totally forgot
you were coming over.
814
00:36:17,092 --> 00:36:18,091
Okay.
815
00:36:18,041 --> 00:36:22,124
Oh, Brandon, um,
816
00:36:21,918 --> 00:36:24,666
remember when we both agreed
that if anything got serious,
817
00:36:24,527 --> 00:36:26,152
then we would just--
[clicks tongue]
818
00:36:26,070 --> 00:36:27,527
Yeah.
819
00:36:27,454 --> 00:36:30,363
I think it's best
we pull things back too.
820
00:36:30,222 --> 00:36:31,972
Really?
821
00:36:31,884 --> 00:36:34,008
It's not you, Mary Jane.
822
00:36:33,901 --> 00:36:35,316
I'm just all over the place
823
00:36:35,245 --> 00:36:36,952
and don't think
I'm giving myself an opportunity
824
00:36:36,867 --> 00:36:38,158
for anything else
to happen in my life
825
00:36:38,093 --> 00:36:39,676
if I keep repeating
this same cycle.
826
00:36:39,597 --> 00:36:40,804
You're lying.
827
00:36:40,743 --> 00:36:42,652
You're totally lying.
828
00:36:42,562 --> 00:36:44,603
You're only saying that because
I was gonna cut us off first.
829
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:46,333
Oh, so I can't have
an original thought?
830
00:36:46,241 --> 00:36:49,073
You didn't come all the way
over here to tell us to stop.
831
00:36:48,930 --> 00:36:52,429
You could have just
used your phone for that.
832
00:36:52,252 --> 00:36:54,084
I'm sorry.
833
00:36:53,992 --> 00:36:55,283
I just tried
to show you some respect.
834
00:36:55,219 --> 00:36:56,385
You wanted some ass.
835
00:36:56,326 --> 00:36:58,033
Of course I wanted some ass.
836
00:36:57,947 --> 00:36:59,280
You think I'd pass up
good-bye sex?
837
00:36:59,214 --> 00:37:02,670
That's just dumb.
838
00:37:02,495 --> 00:37:05,329
Good-bye, Brandon.
I will call you later.
839
00:37:05,186 --> 00:37:07,344
You're crazy.
840
00:37:07,241 --> 00:37:08,824
That's probably why
the sex was so good.
841
00:37:08,745 --> 00:37:11,160
Bye.
842
00:37:11,038 --> 00:37:16,788
843
00:37:16,497 --> 00:37:18,829
Sorry about that.
844
00:37:18,711 --> 00:37:20,252
Long hold.
845
00:37:20,175 --> 00:37:24,341
Yeah, I was flipping a coin
till I got the right answer.
846
00:37:24,130 --> 00:37:26,545
(Sheldon)
What did you decide?
847
00:37:26,424 --> 00:37:27,791
You were right.
848
00:37:30,656 --> 00:37:34,780
I have been holding back,
849
00:37:34,572 --> 00:37:37,613
and the truth is I like you,
Sheldon,
850
00:37:37,459 --> 00:37:40,874
and I like
where this is going.
851
00:37:40,701 --> 00:37:43,950
So is my past still an issue?
852
00:37:43,786 --> 00:37:45,320
No.
853
00:37:48,730 --> 00:37:52,729
But I, um--
854
00:37:52,527 --> 00:37:54,935
I want to go slow.
855
00:37:58,183 --> 00:38:01,632
Taking it slow
is fine with me.
856
00:38:02,810 --> 00:38:05,767
Mmm.
857
00:38:05,618 --> 00:38:07,700
(Sheldon)
Can you define slow?
858
00:40:10,017 --> 00:40:11,150
