Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:07,097 --> 00:00:08,201
- Can I help you?
2
00:00:08,236 --> 00:00:09,996
- Jim Brockmire?
- Yeah.
3
00:00:10,031 --> 00:00:12,585
- For your major contributions
to sports journalism,
4
00:00:12,619 --> 00:00:14,345
you've been selected
as an inductee
5
00:00:14,380 --> 00:00:15,484
to the Baseball
Hall of Fame.
6
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:17,072
- Oh, my God,
are you serious?
7
00:00:18,763 --> 00:00:20,662
- Who are you two?
You from the Hall of Fame?
8
00:00:20,696 --> 00:00:22,560
- No, we're with Limon Favór.
9
00:00:22,595 --> 00:00:24,804
The hall emailed you, but Limon
thought you might appreciate
10
00:00:24,838 --> 00:00:26,702
getting this news
from an actual human.
11
00:00:26,737 --> 00:00:29,671
So I'm, uh--I'm supposed
to hug you now.
12
00:00:29,705 --> 00:00:31,811
- No, that won't be necessary,
thank you very much.
13
00:00:31,845 --> 00:00:34,158
I mean, I have
a family and everything.
14
00:00:34,193 --> 00:00:36,540
I'm alone at
this very moment because
15
00:00:36,574 --> 00:00:38,059
just chased away
the love of my life
16
00:00:38,093 --> 00:00:40,337
and my daughter's not returning
my goddamn phone calls
17
00:00:40,371 --> 00:00:41,683
for some reason,
but other than that,
18
00:00:41,717 --> 00:00:43,650
I'm fine, really,
so thank you very much.
19
00:00:43,685 --> 00:00:47,171
- No, no, I--I have to hug you
to get the credits.
20
00:00:47,206 --> 00:00:50,174
- Jesus, okay,
what the hell, huh?
21
00:00:53,936 --> 00:00:56,594
Hey, can you stop clapping,
please?
22
00:00:56,629 --> 00:00:57,526
Thanks.
23
00:00:57,561 --> 00:00:58,872
No, wait, wait,
Limon was right.
24
00:00:58,907 --> 00:01:00,115
I need this.
25
00:01:00,150 --> 00:01:03,463
God, the Hall of Fame,
my God!
26
00:01:03,498 --> 00:01:05,327
It's the culmination
of my career, man,
27
00:01:05,362 --> 00:01:06,949
my life, really,
28
00:01:06,984 --> 00:01:10,125
all the highs and the lows
and the heavens and the scum.
29
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,058
My life's come
full circle.
30
00:01:12,093 --> 00:01:13,784
Baseball is just
31
00:01:13,818 --> 00:01:15,682
welcoming me home.
32
00:01:15,717 --> 00:01:17,684
I'm sorry.
- Shh, shh, it's okay.
33
00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:20,549
Just--just go ahead
and, you know, let it all out.
34
00:01:20,584 --> 00:01:22,103
I earn more credits
if you cry.
35
00:01:24,933 --> 00:01:26,314
I'm sorry.
- Okay.
36
00:01:26,348 --> 00:01:28,385
I'm sorry. I--I'm sorry.
37
00:01:29,869 --> 00:01:31,077
- Good job.
38
00:01:31,112 --> 00:01:33,838
- Oh, oh, God.
39
00:01:33,873 --> 00:01:35,288
Get out.
40
00:01:39,189 --> 00:01:44,366
♪
41
00:01:44,401 --> 00:01:47,300
Uh, Limon,
call Beth again, please.
42
00:01:47,335 --> 00:01:48,715
- Beth is not available.
43
00:01:48,750 --> 00:01:51,166
Do you want
to leave a message?
44
00:01:51,201 --> 00:01:52,340
- Sure.
45
00:01:52,374 --> 00:01:54,031
Uh, hey, sweetie, it's me.
46
00:01:54,065 --> 00:01:57,621
Uh, I'd love to hear from ya
'cause I love you
47
00:01:57,655 --> 00:01:59,692
and I'd also love to confirm
that you're coming
48
00:01:59,726 --> 00:02:01,349
to the culmination
of my life's work.
49
00:02:01,383 --> 00:02:02,695
I don't want to put pressure,
50
00:02:02,729 --> 00:02:04,352
but that is literally
what today is,
51
00:02:04,386 --> 00:02:07,838
so, uh, anywhoodles,
uh, well, call me back.
52
00:02:07,872 --> 00:02:09,460
Thank you.
53
00:02:10,703 --> 00:02:12,222
- Ready for your speech,
Commissioner?
54
00:02:12,256 --> 00:02:13,257
- Oh, I should be.
55
00:02:13,292 --> 00:02:15,363
Wrote this thing 25 years ago.
56
00:02:15,397 --> 00:02:17,606
Never been lacking in
self-confidence or nose hair,
57
00:02:17,641 --> 00:02:19,781
both of which make strangers
really uncomfortable.
58
00:02:19,815 --> 00:02:22,024
- Okay, let's talk
running order.
59
00:02:22,059 --> 00:02:23,474
Buster Posey will go first,
60
00:02:23,509 --> 00:02:25,683
and then it's you
followed by Lance Kucher,
61
00:02:25,718 --> 00:02:27,616
who is being
introduced by his dad,
62
00:02:27,651 --> 00:02:29,342
who seems like such
a sweet old man.
63
00:02:29,377 --> 00:02:30,826
- Oh, the guy's
a peach, yeah.
64
00:02:30,861 --> 00:02:32,828
- And is your daughter
still introducing you?
65
00:02:32,863 --> 00:02:34,382
- Absolutely,
she is gonna crush it.
66
00:02:35,417 --> 00:02:36,936
I don't like to brag--
67
00:02:36,970 --> 00:02:38,317
actually, love to do it--
68
00:02:38,351 --> 00:02:40,595
but she's three-time
state debate team champion.
69
00:02:40,629 --> 00:02:42,493
- Yep, she sounds great,
and is she here?
70
00:02:42,528 --> 00:02:43,977
- Not at the moment, no.
Nowhere in sight.
71
00:02:44,012 --> 00:02:46,359
- Okay, uh, maybe we should
flip the order
72
00:02:46,394 --> 00:02:47,740
and put you up after Lance.
73
00:02:47,774 --> 00:02:49,017
- Whoa, what?
74
00:02:49,051 --> 00:02:52,123
Kooch Senior? Guy's
a horrible monster, please.
75
00:02:52,158 --> 00:02:53,194
- You said he was a peach.
76
00:02:53,228 --> 00:02:54,195
- Yeah, I was being polite.
77
00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:55,541
The man has a real
78
00:02:55,575 --> 00:02:56,887
"Clint Eastwood with tinnitus"
vibe about him,
79
00:02:56,921 --> 00:02:58,751
plus you can bet that
that speech of his
80
00:02:58,785 --> 00:03:01,616
is gonna get real racist
and I mean real fast.
81
00:03:01,650 --> 00:03:03,687
- But he said he was just
gonna speak from the heart.
82
00:03:03,721 --> 00:03:04,757
- That's where
his hatred lives,
83
00:03:04,791 --> 00:03:06,137
right there
in his heart.
84
00:03:06,172 --> 00:03:07,691
Look, Kooch's wife
is Scotch-Irish.
85
00:03:07,725 --> 00:03:10,245
He refers to her
as mixed race, so, no, no,
86
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,282
I cannot have Kooch Senior's
shit stink
87
00:03:12,316 --> 00:03:13,800
still in the air
when I hit the stage.
88
00:03:13,835 --> 00:03:16,803
I mean, it's my legacy
we're talking about here.
89
00:03:16,838 --> 00:03:18,115
- Commissioner.
- Yeah?
90
00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:19,461
- Beth has been unreachable
91
00:03:19,496 --> 00:03:20,566
for this entire process.
92
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,946
Is this gonna be
a problem?
93
00:03:21,981 --> 00:03:23,154
- No, absolutely not.
94
00:03:23,189 --> 00:03:25,674
She responded to my long
and sincere Limon invite
95
00:03:25,709 --> 00:03:27,883
with a "K,"
and she's a woman of her word.
96
00:03:27,918 --> 00:03:28,884
- K.
97
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:29,954
- In this case,
98
00:03:29,989 --> 00:03:32,716
her passive-aggressive
single letter.
99
00:03:35,270 --> 00:03:37,514
Oh, thank God.
100
00:03:37,548 --> 00:03:38,549
Never had a doubt.
101
00:03:38,584 --> 00:03:39,999
God, it's good
to see ya,
102
00:03:40,033 --> 00:03:41,587
and you have bangs.
103
00:03:41,621 --> 00:03:43,761
Really, we're going
with bangs on a day
104
00:03:43,796 --> 00:03:45,729
that's gonna be immortalized
for all eternity?
105
00:03:45,763 --> 00:03:48,179
'Cause I thought I made
my tonsorial beliefs
106
00:03:48,214 --> 00:03:50,837
on that matter just exceedingly
clear throughout the year.
107
00:03:50,872 --> 00:03:52,183
- Yeah, you always
referred to them
108
00:03:52,218 --> 00:03:53,288
as the Devil's curtains.
109
00:03:53,323 --> 00:03:54,289
- So you do remember.
110
00:03:54,324 --> 00:03:55,601
So that was intentional.
111
00:03:55,635 --> 00:03:57,050
No time to focus
on that, though.
112
00:03:57,085 --> 00:03:58,673
Gotta read your speech
because I want to make sure
113
00:03:58,707 --> 00:04:00,675
we don't overlap
or anything, you know.
114
00:04:00,709 --> 00:04:02,780
Aha, okay,
that's the speech?
115
00:04:02,815 --> 00:04:04,437
- Yes, this is the speech,
but I want to be clear:
116
00:04:04,472 --> 00:04:05,783
this is the one
that I'm giving.
117
00:04:05,818 --> 00:04:07,854
- I understand.
I just, uh, wanna make sure
118
00:04:07,889 --> 00:04:09,339
we're not using
the same anecdotes.
119
00:04:09,373 --> 00:04:10,719
You know, I call dibs
on the time
120
00:04:10,754 --> 00:04:12,859
that we were snowed in
on that merry-go-round.
121
00:04:12,894 --> 00:04:14,551
All right,
Hall of Fame speech.
122
00:04:14,585 --> 00:04:18,451
"My father, Jim Brockmire,
is a hall of fame asshole."
123
00:04:19,590 --> 00:04:20,902
No, you're starting 'em
off with a laugh.
124
00:04:20,936 --> 00:04:21,937
That's great, okay.
125
00:04:21,972 --> 00:04:24,215
Can't wait to see
how you buy it back.
126
00:04:24,250 --> 00:04:25,424
Okay, still no buy back.
127
00:04:25,458 --> 00:04:27,460
Skip ahead a little here.
128
00:04:27,495 --> 00:04:28,875
Okay, page three,
129
00:04:28,910 --> 00:04:32,431
and we are just getting meaner
and more specific.
130
00:04:32,465 --> 00:04:34,571
And what is the graph?
What's this graph?
131
00:04:34,605 --> 00:04:36,227
That's a timeline
of the election
132
00:04:36,262 --> 00:04:37,332
that I fixed
in Thailand.
133
00:04:37,367 --> 00:04:38,885
Are you kidding me?
134
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,611
I told you that in confidence.
What's the matter with you?
135
00:04:40,646 --> 00:04:42,475
You know, this whole speech
is filled with such vitriol,
136
00:04:42,510 --> 00:04:44,305
it's like it's only purpose
is to hurt me.
137
00:04:44,339 --> 00:04:45,547
- So you don't like it.
138
00:04:45,582 --> 00:04:48,170
- It's like it's
the bangs of speeches.
139
00:04:51,726 --> 00:04:53,279
- Are you upset with me
or something?
140
00:04:53,314 --> 00:04:54,798
- Should I be
upset with you?
141
00:04:54,832 --> 00:04:56,765
- Oh, boy, answering a question
with a question
142
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:57,973
is never a sign
that everything
143
00:04:58,008 --> 00:04:59,665
is just super chill,
now, is it?
144
00:04:59,699 --> 00:05:01,874
- Well, you know,
it really wasn't easy
145
00:05:01,908 --> 00:05:04,980
summarizing your legacy,
but I did my research
146
00:05:05,015 --> 00:05:07,673
and everything in that speech,
it's--it's factual.
147
00:05:07,707 --> 00:05:09,468
- Beth, we're standing here
in Cooperstown
148
00:05:09,502 --> 00:05:11,366
because a con man
named Abner Doubleday
149
00:05:11,401 --> 00:05:14,093
spun a lot of bullshit
that he invented baseball here.
150
00:05:14,127 --> 00:05:17,476
I mean, this place
is literally built on lies.
151
00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:19,063
But you know what?
That's okay
152
00:05:19,098 --> 00:05:21,618
because it's become part
of a larger American myth.
153
00:05:21,652 --> 00:05:23,723
This is a temple
built on ground
154
00:05:23,758 --> 00:05:25,173
that we all decided
was sacred,
155
00:05:25,207 --> 00:05:28,141
and this speech,
it's a desecration, darling.
156
00:05:28,176 --> 00:05:30,178
I mean, you wouldn't
run around the Vatican
157
00:05:30,212 --> 00:05:32,525
shouting that Jesus
was just some magician
158
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,527
who did his tricks for free,
now, would you?
159
00:05:34,562 --> 00:05:35,770
- Comparing
yourself to Jesus?
160
00:05:35,804 --> 00:05:37,150
- You know,
at least I'd never
161
00:05:37,185 --> 00:05:38,773
overthrow the tables
of the money changers.
162
00:05:38,807 --> 00:05:40,153
I mean, some poor guy
163
00:05:40,188 --> 00:05:41,914
is handing out microloans
to his community
164
00:05:41,948 --> 00:05:43,398
has to have
his whole day ruined
165
00:05:43,433 --> 00:05:45,504
'cause Jesus
just gotta be the big man.
166
00:05:45,538 --> 00:05:46,608
I mean,
what's that shit?
167
00:05:46,643 --> 00:05:47,989
- You know, just maybe
168
00:05:48,023 --> 00:05:51,475
it's time this place
stops being built on lies.
169
00:05:51,510 --> 00:05:53,995
Maybe it's time that
we point out a few things,
170
00:05:54,029 --> 00:05:56,411
you know, like,
oh, Tom Yawkey,
171
00:05:56,446 --> 00:06:00,622
malignant racist who refused to
integrate the Red Sox, right?
172
00:06:00,657 --> 00:06:02,935
And Ty Cobb,
he--he tried to murder
173
00:06:02,969 --> 00:06:05,420
an armless fan
during a game once.
174
00:06:05,455 --> 00:06:07,836
Hey, right now,
we're in the Ty Cobb Room.
175
00:06:07,871 --> 00:06:11,046
Society,
it's--it's crumbling
176
00:06:11,081 --> 00:06:13,566
because we continue
to excuse awful behavior
177
00:06:13,601 --> 00:06:15,119
and choose the most palatable,
178
00:06:15,154 --> 00:06:17,605
convenient version
of the truth, but, hey,
179
00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:18,847
I'm not gonna be
a participant
180
00:06:18,882 --> 00:06:21,402
in another whitewashing
of the past.
181
00:06:21,436 --> 00:06:22,817
I'm just keeping it Brockmire.
182
00:06:22,851 --> 00:06:24,612
- Well, you got me there.
183
00:06:24,646 --> 00:06:27,615
The cornerstone of my parenting
has always been brutal honesty.
184
00:06:27,649 --> 00:06:29,306
But you know what?
185
00:06:29,340 --> 00:06:30,928
Right now, I got a brown bear
knocking on my back door,
186
00:06:30,963 --> 00:06:33,206
so I gotta hit the head,
but hold that thought.
187
00:06:33,241 --> 00:06:35,864
I want to continue
this conversation.
188
00:06:47,669 --> 00:06:49,464
Limon,
please call Charles.
189
00:06:49,499 --> 00:06:51,052
- Charles is unavailable.
190
00:06:51,086 --> 00:06:52,571
Why don't you leave him
a message?
191
00:06:52,605 --> 00:06:53,744
Charles, where are you, man?
192
00:06:53,779 --> 00:06:55,125
Beth is freaking out.
193
00:06:55,159 --> 00:06:56,782
She's on this--
this crazy truth kick.
194
00:06:56,816 --> 00:06:58,542
She's gonna embarrass
the hell out of me
195
00:06:58,577 --> 00:06:59,888
with her introduction speech,
196
00:06:59,923 --> 00:07:02,132
so I may need you
to step in and just--
197
00:07:02,166 --> 00:07:03,513
- Jim Brockmire?
198
00:07:03,547 --> 00:07:05,169
I have some bad news.
199
00:07:05,204 --> 00:07:06,723
Your friend Charles
isn't gonna make it today.
200
00:07:06,757 --> 00:07:08,759
His blimp hit
some bad weather.
201
00:07:08,794 --> 00:07:10,692
- Oh, man.
- Would you like a hug?
202
00:07:10,727 --> 00:07:13,384
- No, thank you, Limon,
I don't need another hug.
203
00:07:13,419 --> 00:07:14,731
- I could do
other things
204
00:07:14,765 --> 00:07:16,974
and we could just tell Limon
it was a hug.
205
00:07:17,009 --> 00:07:19,183
- Jesus Christ,
stay away from me.
206
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,016
Hey, event coordinator,
is this--
207
00:07:24,050 --> 00:07:25,396
- I have a name.
208
00:07:25,431 --> 00:07:27,571
- I'm not even gonna pretend
that I remember what that is.
209
00:07:27,606 --> 00:07:28,986
Is this the guest list?
210
00:07:29,021 --> 00:07:30,712
I need to take a look at it
because I just gotta
211
00:07:30,747 --> 00:07:32,127
find somebody who knows
and respects me
212
00:07:32,162 --> 00:07:34,958
enough to say a few loving
words of introduction.
213
00:07:34,992 --> 00:07:37,616
Let's see,
definitely not Bob Costas,
214
00:07:37,650 --> 00:07:39,065
not Jessica Mendoza.
215
00:07:39,100 --> 00:07:41,033
Bob Uecker,
he hates my guts.
216
00:07:41,067 --> 00:07:43,518
I hate that
Keith Olbermann idiot.
217
00:07:43,553 --> 00:07:45,486
Dan Patrick
once took a shit in my bed.
218
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:46,521
So did Eisen.
219
00:07:46,556 --> 00:07:47,557
So did Le Batard.
220
00:07:47,591 --> 00:07:48,868
My goodness, this list
221
00:07:48,903 --> 00:07:50,801
is like a regular who's who
of pillow poo.
222
00:07:50,836 --> 00:07:53,148
- Didn't you have a ticket
put aside for a Julia James?
223
00:07:53,183 --> 00:07:54,943
- Yeah, but, unfortunately,
she's out dealing
224
00:07:54,978 --> 00:07:57,325
with a very sensitive
labor issue for the league,
225
00:07:57,359 --> 00:07:58,706
that and she made it very clear
226
00:07:58,740 --> 00:08:00,949
that she had no desire
to see this or me, really.
227
00:08:00,984 --> 00:08:03,158
- Maybe just don't have
anyone introduce you.
228
00:08:03,193 --> 00:08:04,884
- Boy, has it actually
come to this?
229
00:08:04,919 --> 00:08:07,266
I've just--I've fractured
every relationship in my life
230
00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:10,303
to the point where no one
will stand up for me.
231
00:08:10,338 --> 00:08:11,857
- Congratulations, Jim!
232
00:08:11,891 --> 00:08:14,066
- And now, now
I'm living a nightmare.
233
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:15,308
That's what's
happening to me.
234
00:08:15,343 --> 00:08:17,587
Joe Buck.
235
00:08:17,621 --> 00:08:19,174
- Hey, is it true
that some of these players
236
00:08:19,209 --> 00:08:21,004
are talking about
a midseason strike?
237
00:08:21,038 --> 00:08:22,971
- Shh, as commissioner,
I'm not really at liberty
238
00:08:23,006 --> 00:08:26,492
to discuss that, Joe,
but, yes, yes, these unions
239
00:08:26,527 --> 00:08:28,390
are just gonna kill
this game dead, Joe Buck.
240
00:08:28,425 --> 00:08:30,841
They're gonna, pow, Moe Greene
it right in the eye.
241
00:08:30,876 --> 00:08:32,602
But I got bigger problems
right now, Joe.
242
00:08:32,636 --> 00:08:34,914
Beth was supposed to give
my introduction speech today,
243
00:08:34,949 --> 00:08:36,398
but we're in the middle
244
00:08:36,433 --> 00:08:37,848
of a little father-daughter
spat right now,
245
00:08:37,883 --> 00:08:39,885
so I was wondering if maybe
246
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:41,990
you would willing
to be on deck for me?
247
00:08:42,025 --> 00:08:44,510
- Jim, I'd be honored.
- Great.
248
00:08:44,545 --> 00:08:45,960
- And you were right
to come to me.
249
00:08:45,994 --> 00:08:47,858
I mean, after all,
we are best friends.
250
00:08:47,893 --> 00:08:49,204
- We're definitely not
best friends, Joe.
251
00:08:49,239 --> 00:08:51,275
- No, no, no,
you're not my best friend,
252
00:08:51,310 --> 00:08:55,763
but I am definitely
your best friend.
253
00:08:55,797 --> 00:08:58,662
Let that dawning awareness
overtake you.
254
00:08:59,663 --> 00:09:01,078
Look, I'm all you got, man.
255
00:09:01,113 --> 00:09:04,357
Someday, I'm gonna be doing
your goddamn eulogy.
256
00:09:04,392 --> 00:09:07,084
- Who the hell was that?
- Who the hell was what?
257
00:09:08,051 --> 00:09:09,570
Look, to be clear...
258
00:09:09,604 --> 00:09:11,295
I may not even need you
to give the speech, okay?
259
00:09:11,330 --> 00:09:12,814
I just gotta talk Beth down
off of this ledge.
260
00:09:12,849 --> 00:09:13,919
- Understood.
261
00:09:13,953 --> 00:09:15,265
I think I'm
giving the speech.
262
00:09:15,299 --> 00:09:17,716
- No, no, no, Beth's
a hothead like me.
263
00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:18,889
Sometimes she leads
with her anger,
264
00:09:18,924 --> 00:09:20,132
but I'm her father, man.
265
00:09:20,166 --> 00:09:21,651
That is
an unconditional love,
266
00:09:21,685 --> 00:09:23,376
and that love
is gonna win the day.
267
00:09:23,963 --> 00:09:25,689
- Feels like
I'm giving the speech.
268
00:09:25,724 --> 00:09:26,828
- Eh.
269
00:09:26,863 --> 00:09:28,071
All right, listen, honey,
270
00:09:28,105 --> 00:09:29,210
I--I don't know
what's going on here.
271
00:09:29,244 --> 00:09:30,625
Maybe this is part
of your whole
272
00:09:30,660 --> 00:09:31,868
"pulling away from me"
thing,
273
00:09:31,902 --> 00:09:33,283
but, please,
there's gotta be
274
00:09:33,317 --> 00:09:35,250
a better way to do it
than this.
275
00:09:35,285 --> 00:09:37,183
- If you want to convince me
not to give the speech,
276
00:09:37,218 --> 00:09:39,047
all you have to do
is prove me wrong.
277
00:09:39,082 --> 00:09:40,428
- What, like--like a debate?
278
00:09:40,462 --> 00:09:42,188
- Yep, classic Lincoln-Douglas
format.
279
00:09:42,223 --> 00:09:44,052
Start with
affirmative construction
280
00:09:44,087 --> 00:09:46,192
and end by trading rebuttals
until you crumble in defeat
281
00:09:46,227 --> 00:09:48,885
and I go up on that stage and I
rip your asshole a new asshole
282
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:52,198
so when you shit yourself,
you see it coming twice.
283
00:09:54,338 --> 00:09:56,409
- Okey-doke, um...
284
00:09:56,444 --> 00:09:58,895
I'll take the affirmative
of the resolution
285
00:09:58,929 --> 00:10:01,829
that a positive speech
can be given about me
286
00:10:01,863 --> 00:10:03,624
without lying.
287
00:10:03,658 --> 00:10:05,487
- Okay.
288
00:10:05,522 --> 00:10:07,144
You have six minutes.
289
00:10:07,179 --> 00:10:09,526
- Jesus, well,
I--I won't need all that.
290
00:10:10,631 --> 00:10:12,840
Okay.
291
00:10:14,048 --> 00:10:15,497
You claim your speech
is factual.
292
00:10:15,532 --> 00:10:16,775
I won't dispute that.
293
00:10:16,809 --> 00:10:18,777
But you left out
certain facts about me
294
00:10:18,811 --> 00:10:20,502
that paint a very distorted
picture
295
00:10:20,537 --> 00:10:22,539
of, like, a monster
from beginning to end
296
00:10:22,573 --> 00:10:25,542
when, in fact, mine is a tale
of human redemption,
297
00:10:25,576 --> 00:10:28,096
of a man who got sober
and changed for the better.
298
00:10:28,131 --> 00:10:29,511
Now, in my drinking days,
299
00:10:29,546 --> 00:10:32,514
did I once
marry a dog as a joke? Yeah.
300
00:10:32,549 --> 00:10:34,585
Am I still paying him alimony?
Absolutely.
301
00:10:34,620 --> 00:10:36,553
God, I wish that Scraps
would just remarry.
302
00:10:36,587 --> 00:10:38,866
I just--I just want him to be
happy, but anywhoodles.
303
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:40,833
You left all that
out of this speech.
304
00:10:40,868 --> 00:10:42,835
I mean, to strip me
of my triumphs
305
00:10:42,870 --> 00:10:45,493
is to lie by omission, okay?
306
00:10:45,527 --> 00:10:49,393
And with that, the affirmative
rests for cross-examination.
307
00:10:50,118 --> 00:10:52,638
- What color
were my mother's eyes?
308
00:10:53,259 --> 00:10:55,261
- What?
- Answer the question.
309
00:10:56,124 --> 00:10:57,298
- Brown.
- Are you answering
310
00:10:57,332 --> 00:10:58,817
from memory
or inference?
311
00:10:58,851 --> 00:11:00,163
- Beth, well, what does this--
312
00:11:00,197 --> 00:11:02,441
- You say that
you're a changed man.
313
00:11:02,475 --> 00:11:05,720
Okay, if that were true,
314
00:11:05,755 --> 00:11:10,483
why have you spent
all of these years lying to me
315
00:11:10,518 --> 00:11:12,313
about your knowledge of
316
00:11:12,347 --> 00:11:16,041
and relationship
with my birth mother?
317
00:11:17,421 --> 00:11:21,011
I was awake when you admitted
everything to Jules.
318
00:11:21,046 --> 00:11:22,633
You never loved my mother!
319
00:11:22,668 --> 00:11:25,429
You don't even remember her!
320
00:11:25,464 --> 00:11:27,811
- Oh, Beth, um...
321
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:32,782
- I need a five-minute recess.
322
00:11:32,816 --> 00:11:34,300
- Wha--
323
00:11:39,961 --> 00:11:42,446
Oh, Joe Buck, I messed up,
and I mean real bad.
324
00:11:42,481 --> 00:11:44,966
Beth found out
my most shameful secret.
325
00:11:45,001 --> 00:11:47,003
I don't know that she's
ever gonna speak to me again.
326
00:11:47,037 --> 00:11:48,936
- Are you still
fucking that dog?
327
00:11:48,970 --> 00:11:50,178
- That was
a green card marriage,
328
00:11:50,213 --> 00:11:51,766
and you know
that it was, Joe Buck.
329
00:11:51,801 --> 00:11:53,354
Our love was
platonic and pure,
330
00:11:53,388 --> 00:11:55,494
and how you doing there,
Mr. and Mrs. Posey?
331
00:11:55,528 --> 00:11:58,152
God, your son was just
one heck of a catcher.
332
00:11:58,186 --> 00:11:59,878
Congratulations to you.
333
00:11:59,912 --> 00:12:01,465
- Look, Jim, I've got
five kids of my own.
334
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:02,950
Here's what
I can tell you.
335
00:12:02,984 --> 00:12:04,710
This speech
is coming along great.
336
00:12:04,745 --> 00:12:07,713
I've already got eight minutes
of Joe Buck gold in here.
337
00:12:07,748 --> 00:12:08,887
- How's that
even possible?
338
00:12:08,921 --> 00:12:10,543
- I'm mainly
copying and pasting
339
00:12:10,578 --> 00:12:11,959
from my upcoming memoir.
340
00:12:11,993 --> 00:12:14,271
It's called
"Joe Buck Yourself."
341
00:12:15,341 --> 00:12:20,208
I mean, after all, what are you
without the context of me?
342
00:12:20,243 --> 00:12:23,280
- You know, as one narcissistic
egomaniac to another,
343
00:12:23,315 --> 00:12:25,593
you are a world-class
son of a bitch, you know that?
344
00:12:25,627 --> 00:12:27,802
- That may be,
but you gotta listen to me.
345
00:12:27,837 --> 00:12:30,080
Today's the most important day
of your baseball life.
346
00:12:30,115 --> 00:12:33,566
If she has one ounce
of your penchant for revenge,
347
00:12:33,601 --> 00:12:35,637
she'll find a way
to ruin this ceremony,
348
00:12:35,672 --> 00:12:37,225
so tell another lie.
349
00:12:37,260 --> 00:12:39,055
Do whatever you have to do.
350
00:12:39,089 --> 00:12:40,573
Your legacy is at stake.
351
00:12:40,608 --> 00:12:43,542
- Just promise me that if
you do have to introduce me,
352
00:12:43,576 --> 00:12:45,889
you'll mention me
once or twice, okay?
353
00:12:45,924 --> 00:12:47,615
Thanks.
- You got it.
354
00:12:48,823 --> 00:12:51,619
Fucked...a...dog.
355
00:12:55,036 --> 00:12:56,003
- You're late.
356
00:12:56,037 --> 00:12:57,107
I'm taking that time
357
00:12:57,142 --> 00:12:58,660
off your cross-examination.
358
00:12:58,695 --> 00:13:00,352
So your supposition is that
359
00:13:00,386 --> 00:13:02,526
you've been a bad person
and then a good person,
360
00:13:02,561 --> 00:13:05,219
but I contend you've always
been the same shitty person.
361
00:13:05,253 --> 00:13:07,393
You lied to your sister
about your mother,
362
00:13:07,428 --> 00:13:09,016
and then you lied to me
about mine,
363
00:13:09,050 --> 00:13:11,225
and those lies were
15 years apart
364
00:13:11,259 --> 00:13:12,847
on both sides
of your sobriety.
365
00:13:12,882 --> 00:13:14,193
What is your deal?
366
00:13:14,228 --> 00:13:15,816
Do you get off
on lying about mothers?
367
00:13:15,850 --> 00:13:18,094
When you go to Mr. Magoriam's
Masterbatorium,
368
00:13:18,128 --> 00:13:19,578
and, yeah,
I do know about that,
369
00:13:19,612 --> 00:13:21,373
do you pay extra
for a virtual scenario
370
00:13:21,407 --> 00:13:24,031
where you get to tell Bambi
that his mom is still alive?
371
00:13:24,065 --> 00:13:25,756
You sick freak.
372
00:13:25,791 --> 00:13:29,450
You are the same terrible
person that you've always been.
373
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,180
- How you doing there,
Mr. and Mrs. Posey?
374
00:13:35,214 --> 00:13:37,354
Congratulations again.
375
00:13:37,389 --> 00:13:39,978
Look, I don't want
to debate anymore, okay?
376
00:13:40,012 --> 00:13:41,255
- Why, because
you'll lose?
377
00:13:41,289 --> 00:13:43,602
- No. Well, yes,
I would definitely lose.
378
00:13:43,636 --> 00:13:45,535
God, that Bambi comp,
that was brutal,
379
00:13:45,569 --> 00:13:47,917
and I could tell that you
just--you found it in the air.
380
00:13:47,951 --> 00:13:49,263
- I'm just speaking
from the heart.
381
00:13:49,297 --> 00:13:50,885
- I don't want
to debate anymore
382
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,404
'cause I know what
you're doing, darling.
383
00:13:52,438 --> 00:13:54,785
Why? 'Cause I did
the same thing my whole life.
384
00:13:54,820 --> 00:13:56,373
I eulogized
my father that way,
385
00:13:56,408 --> 00:13:57,961
and I gotta tell you
something.
386
00:13:57,996 --> 00:13:59,411
Never made me
feel any better.
387
00:13:59,445 --> 00:14:01,171
The problem
with scorched earth is,
388
00:14:01,206 --> 00:14:02,793
you can't go back and figure
out what the hell went wrong.
389
00:14:02,828 --> 00:14:06,314
You end up carrying that pain
your whole entire life,
390
00:14:06,349 --> 00:14:08,592
and you deserve much better
than that, all right?
391
00:14:08,627 --> 00:14:12,562
You deserve the truth,
so please just ask me anything.
392
00:14:12,596 --> 00:14:14,150
- Commissioner,
we need you on deck.
393
00:14:14,184 --> 00:14:15,806
Kooch's dad brought
a separatist flag.
394
00:14:15,841 --> 00:14:18,154
- Not now, Janet.
395
00:14:18,188 --> 00:14:21,260
Yep, I knew your name
the whole time.
396
00:14:22,503 --> 00:14:24,919
- I'm gonna shit
on his pillow.
397
00:14:25,644 --> 00:14:27,232
- Well, you don't want
to be late.
398
00:14:27,266 --> 00:14:28,819
What about your legacy?
399
00:14:28,854 --> 00:14:31,098
- Right now, my only concern
is how you remember me, okay?
400
00:14:31,132 --> 00:14:32,651
That's my legacy.
401
00:14:32,685 --> 00:14:33,894
- Why did you lie?
402
00:14:33,928 --> 00:14:36,206
- You know,
at first I rationalized it
403
00:14:36,241 --> 00:14:38,381
by telling myself
that I was protecting you,
404
00:14:38,415 --> 00:14:43,041
but then I think I kept lying
over the years to protect me.
405
00:14:43,075 --> 00:14:45,181
You know, I keep running
that period of time
406
00:14:45,215 --> 00:14:47,355
over and over again
in my mind.
407
00:14:47,390 --> 00:14:49,116
It's not like somebody
erased the tape.
408
00:14:49,150 --> 00:14:50,255
It's like nobody was even
409
00:14:50,289 --> 00:14:51,773
running the camera
to begin with.
410
00:14:51,808 --> 00:14:54,742
- Do you know anything real
about her?
411
00:14:54,776 --> 00:14:56,882
- Just what the private
investigators could tell me.
412
00:14:56,917 --> 00:15:01,335
She was born Eden Floribeth
Reyes in Carmona in 1987.
413
00:15:01,369 --> 00:15:03,509
She received a degree
in applied statistics
414
00:15:03,544 --> 00:15:07,168
from Ateneo De Manila
University in 2009,
415
00:15:07,203 --> 00:15:09,481
and she died when
Super Typhoon Haiyan
416
00:15:09,515 --> 00:15:12,242
made landfall
on Leyte Island in 2013.
417
00:15:12,277 --> 00:15:14,969
Somewhere in between graduating
college and her death,
418
00:15:15,004 --> 00:15:18,731
she met me, and I can't believe
that that was a coincidence.
419
00:15:18,766 --> 00:15:20,423
- What is that
supposed to mean?
420
00:15:20,457 --> 00:15:22,494
- Beth, back then,
my only companions were
421
00:15:22,528 --> 00:15:25,635
fugitives and degenerates
and gamblers and addicts,
422
00:15:25,669 --> 00:15:27,706
and your mother was
definitely not of that world.
423
00:15:27,740 --> 00:15:30,467
Who knows what I paid
or promised or lied about
424
00:15:30,502 --> 00:15:33,263
to lure her
into my strange darkness.
425
00:15:33,298 --> 00:15:34,816
- That's conjecture.
426
00:15:34,851 --> 00:15:39,442
You have no idea what
actually happened, Dad!
427
00:15:40,339 --> 00:15:42,479
- All right, okay.
428
00:15:42,514 --> 00:15:44,033
Let's stick
to the facts then.
429
00:15:44,067 --> 00:15:45,413
Before I met your mother,
430
00:15:45,448 --> 00:15:47,243
she was an academic
with a promising future.
431
00:15:47,277 --> 00:15:50,246
Afterwards, she got pregnant,
disowned by her family,
432
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:51,385
and she died alone.
433
00:15:51,419 --> 00:15:53,042
I was definitely
the worst thing
434
00:15:53,076 --> 00:15:54,491
that ever happened to Eden,
435
00:15:54,526 --> 00:15:58,116
and I don't even have
the decency to remember her.
436
00:15:58,150 --> 00:16:00,463
And the shame of that
is like a weight.
437
00:16:00,497 --> 00:16:02,465
It's like a stone
down there in my stomach.
438
00:16:02,499 --> 00:16:04,156
- That's not a story
about my mom.
439
00:16:04,191 --> 00:16:05,468
That's a story about you.
440
00:16:05,502 --> 00:16:07,263
- What are y--
- You're saying that
441
00:16:07,297 --> 00:16:09,127
in her entire life,
442
00:16:09,161 --> 00:16:13,579
the only day that mattered
was the day that she met you.
443
00:16:13,614 --> 00:16:17,307
Dad, you're doing to her
what you've done to me.
444
00:16:17,342 --> 00:16:21,553
You are making our story
your story.
445
00:16:24,797 --> 00:16:26,558
- Jesus Christ,
you're absolutely right.
446
00:16:26,592 --> 00:16:28,387
Even when I give
my heart to someone,
447
00:16:28,422 --> 00:16:30,251
I make it a selfish act.
448
00:16:30,286 --> 00:16:32,046
I just made you
my new addiction
449
00:16:32,081 --> 00:16:35,912
and afflicted my pain on you
just like my parents did to me.
450
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,894
They probably started
by now.
451
00:16:52,929 --> 00:16:54,724
- Probably.
452
00:16:55,759 --> 00:16:57,451
- I can't believe
you were gonna tell
453
00:16:57,485 --> 00:17:00,212
the merry-go-round story.
454
00:17:00,247 --> 00:17:02,421
- Why not?
It's a great story.
455
00:17:02,456 --> 00:17:06,770
I mean, that storm just came
out of nowhere, didn't it?
456
00:17:06,805 --> 00:17:09,256
- It was terrifying,
457
00:17:09,290 --> 00:17:12,604
got dark and cold
so fast.
458
00:17:12,638 --> 00:17:16,539
And even though
it was just the two of us,
459
00:17:16,573 --> 00:17:18,437
when you said
we were gonna be okay,
460
00:17:18,472 --> 00:17:20,508
I believed you,
461
00:17:20,543 --> 00:17:22,683
especially after you killed
that raccoon for sustenance.
462
00:17:22,717 --> 00:17:24,857
Then, of course,
it just ended up being
463
00:17:24,892 --> 00:17:26,342
the owners' pet raccoon.
464
00:17:26,376 --> 00:17:29,345
- Yeah, with hindsight,
that was way too easy.
465
00:17:29,379 --> 00:17:32,175
I think she thought
we were just playing with her.
466
00:17:32,210 --> 00:17:33,797
- That's your parenting
in a nutshell.
467
00:17:33,832 --> 00:17:38,043
It's way over the top,
enthusiastically wrongheaded,
468
00:17:38,078 --> 00:17:39,734
but...
469
00:17:40,908 --> 00:17:42,979
You're always
trying your best.
470
00:17:44,808 --> 00:17:47,328
I do know a few other things
about your mother.
471
00:17:48,571 --> 00:17:50,642
She made friends easily,
472
00:17:50,676 --> 00:17:53,127
she was kind,
and she was very brave.
473
00:17:53,162 --> 00:17:54,887
I know that
'cause you're those things,
474
00:17:54,922 --> 00:17:58,891
and, let's face it, you don't
get any of that from me,
475
00:17:58,926 --> 00:18:00,445
that's for sure.
476
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,485
Well, we should hurry.
477
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,177
I got a speech to give.
478
00:18:08,211 --> 00:18:09,695
- Are you sure?
479
00:18:09,730 --> 00:18:11,421
- Unless you want
Joe Buck to do it.
480
00:18:11,456 --> 00:18:14,424
- Oh, Joe Buck can eat
a big bag o' dicks.
481
00:18:17,255 --> 00:18:19,878
- Okay,
one more question.
482
00:18:19,912 --> 00:18:20,982
Do you like my bangs?
483
00:18:21,017 --> 00:18:22,329
- The important thing,
sweetie,
484
00:18:22,363 --> 00:18:23,882
is that you like them.
- I hate them.
485
00:18:23,916 --> 00:18:26,022
- Thank goodness,
'cause they're just awful.
486
00:18:26,056 --> 00:18:27,092
It's not your fault.
487
00:18:27,127 --> 00:18:28,369
Bangs are just a prank
488
00:18:28,404 --> 00:18:30,337
a woman plays on herself
every three years.
489
00:18:35,445 --> 00:18:37,930
- I love you, Dad.
490
00:18:37,965 --> 00:18:40,036
- I love you too.
491
00:18:42,797 --> 00:18:44,282
- Okay.
492
00:18:44,316 --> 00:18:46,974
- Beth,
I really am sorry
493
00:18:47,008 --> 00:18:49,770
that I can't tell you
any more about your mother.
494
00:18:49,804 --> 00:18:51,565
- It's okay.
495
00:18:53,394 --> 00:18:55,362
I know everything
I need to know.
496
00:19:09,307 --> 00:19:10,998
Cubs three to two.
497
00:19:12,586 --> 00:19:15,105
- Oh, shit, baseball.
498
00:19:15,140 --> 00:19:17,625
Oh, what chan--
um...
499
00:19:20,835 --> 00:19:22,527
- I have the TV
linked to my laptop
500
00:19:22,561 --> 00:19:24,805
so I can stream games
illegally.
501
00:19:24,839 --> 00:19:26,220
- You like baseball?
502
00:19:26,255 --> 00:19:29,327
- One of my statistics
professors introduced me to it.
503
00:19:29,361 --> 00:19:31,260
- Huh.
- Baseball is like this
504
00:19:31,294 --> 00:19:36,782
intersection of life and math
where you can predict anything
505
00:19:36,817 --> 00:19:39,337
except the moments
that change everything.
506
00:19:40,648 --> 00:19:43,306
- This is definitely the best
conversation I've ever had
507
00:19:43,341 --> 00:19:45,757
after waking up on a bar.
508
00:19:45,791 --> 00:19:48,000
My name is Jim--
- Jim Brockmire.
509
00:19:48,035 --> 00:19:49,243
- Yeah, yeah, hey.
510
00:19:49,278 --> 00:19:52,142
- Eden. We've met
many times.
511
00:19:52,177 --> 00:19:53,558
- Oh, I'm sorry.
512
00:19:53,592 --> 00:19:57,113
I'm kind of on the bender
to end all benders here.
513
00:19:57,803 --> 00:20:00,358
Let me ask you, you ever
actually been to a game?
514
00:20:00,392 --> 00:20:02,498
- No.
- Oh, you have to
515
00:20:02,532 --> 00:20:04,327
because in person,
it's so much more
516
00:20:04,362 --> 00:20:07,227
than just
an intellectual exercise.
517
00:20:07,261 --> 00:20:10,402
I mean,
it's a meditative experience.
518
00:20:10,437 --> 00:20:12,577
Baseball is the only game
that actually
519
00:20:12,611 --> 00:20:15,200
gets more enjoyable
with your eyes closed,
520
00:20:15,235 --> 00:20:16,857
just the...
521
00:20:16,891 --> 00:20:19,342
the inhale and exhale
of the crowd,
522
00:20:19,377 --> 00:20:22,069
the smells on
the languid summer air,
523
00:20:22,103 --> 00:20:27,281
and the sounds of the bat
and the ball and the glove.
524
00:20:27,316 --> 00:20:28,800
It's beautiful.
525
00:20:28,834 --> 00:20:30,974
- Well, this is the best
conversation I've ever had
526
00:20:31,009 --> 00:20:32,838
with someone who's
blackout drunk.
527
00:20:32,873 --> 00:20:35,358
- I won "Celebrity Jeopardy!"
blackout drunk.
528
00:20:36,497 --> 00:20:39,535
I kicked
Jerry Orbach's ass.
529
00:20:39,569 --> 00:20:40,674
Oh, yeah, I should
have realized
530
00:20:40,708 --> 00:20:43,090
Jerry Orbach
wouldn't translate.
531
00:20:43,124 --> 00:20:47,508
Um, imagine if a loaf
of rye bread came alive
532
00:20:47,543 --> 00:20:48,820
and started
arresting everybody.
533
00:20:48,854 --> 00:20:50,408
- Pakshet.
534
00:20:50,442 --> 00:20:52,858
My shift's over,
sorry.
535
00:20:52,893 --> 00:20:54,135
- All right.
536
00:20:54,170 --> 00:20:55,378
Bye, baseball.
537
00:20:55,413 --> 00:20:58,347
- Unless you'd like
to join me.
538
00:20:58,381 --> 00:21:02,040
- Eden, my goodness,
so--so forward.
539
00:21:02,074 --> 00:21:03,593
- Not really.
540
00:21:03,628 --> 00:21:05,940
I've actually turned you down
three times before this.
541
00:21:05,975 --> 00:21:08,184
- Certainly hope
I was charming in defeat.
542
00:21:08,218 --> 00:21:11,083
- You're always charming when
you're not being an asshole.
543
00:21:11,118 --> 00:21:14,949
- Walking that tightrope,
that is the journey of my life.
544
00:21:16,848 --> 00:21:20,058
Charming to asshole.
545
00:21:20,092 --> 00:21:22,474
It's an old double play
combination too.
546
00:21:22,509 --> 00:21:25,581
Charming to idiot to asshole.
547
00:21:25,615 --> 00:21:27,997
So you live close by?
