All language subtitles for The Neighborhood S05E18 Welcome to the Future

Ta-da.

Oh, wow.
Yeah.

Impressive.
Yeah.

You have no idea
what this is, do you?

No.

This is a scale model of the new
garage we're going to open.

See? Electric Vehicle
Restoration Complex.

Wow.

For real this time.
Yeah.

Look at all the little people.
Okay.

And that one right there,
that's you.

So, why am I holding
a light saber?

Is it because I fix cars
at lightning speed?

No, Daddy. Then you'd
be the Flash.

And I don't have any action
figures from the DC Universe.

I assume I don't
have to explain why.

Well, actually, you do,
but I don't want to hear it.

Hey, Mama, check it out.
Wow. Impressive. Yeah.

Okay, you two have been
married way too long.

Hey, hey.

Malcolm, you'll never guess
what this is.

Um, looks like a scale
model of your new business.

Well, yeah, you know,
y'all live together.

He probably told you.

This looks expensive.

Can we afford to
make all this life-size?

Well, Pops made a bundle
when he sold the Pit Stop.

Yeah, but that's
our retirement money.

We can't risk that.
Oh, no, no, life is risk, Mama.

As Michael Jordan once said,
you miss 100% of the shots

you don't take.
Hey, wasn't that Tiger Woods?

It's Wayne Gretzky.
Read a book.

Look, don't worry
about the risk, babe.

We're going to borrow
the money from the bank.

All right? They're going to be
begging us to take their money.

And I'm going to be like,
"Nah, bro."

And then they're going
to be like, "Calvin,

please take our money,"
and I'll be like,

"Aw, I don't know, man."

And then they gonna offer me
some more money,

and I'll be like,
"Eh, should I? Should I?"

(laughter)

That's when they gonna double
the offer,

and I'm gonna be like,
"All right then."

(laughter, excited chatter)

Eh... Back to real life.

You know, it's never
that easy to get a loan.

It is when you
have an idea this good.

Servicing electric vehicles that
have fallen out of warranty.

It's going to be huge.
Then I can kiss JPL goodbye.

Oh, and it lights up.

Oh!
Come on!

Well, check this out.

Your company has a
gender-neutral bathroom.

How progressive of you, Pop.

Hey, look, me?
Nah, I'm down with whatever,

you know what I'm saying?
But I am going to need

my own bathroom.

I get a shy bladder
when women are around.

MARTY:
Okay.

(laughing)

You better.

* Welcome to the block,
welcome to the neighborhood *

* Welcome to the hood. *

Ooh. Good news. The laser tag
people just confirmed

for Grover's birthday.

They still can't do my party,
huh?

They said no.

Hmm.

It just seems like...
I didn't ask them, Dave.

You know,
it's not just for kids, Gemma.

There's a lot of strategy in LT.
That's laser tag.

Oh, boy.

You have to be stealth,
have catlike reflexes,

and you always keep
your back up against the wall

so nobody can sneak up on you.
Dave.

Hey, Gregory.

Oh, hi. I'm Gemma, Dave's wife.
It's nice to meet you.

Gregory.

Uh, we were just
having lunch together

and planning our son's
13th birthday party.

Oh, birthdays are fun.
You know what's not fun?

Being married for 20 years,
and you wake up one day and

your wife tells you she's
leaving you for her trainer.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.

Yeah, that's
really tough, um...

(clears throat) Gregory.
That's-that's-that's, uh...

That's really tough.

I'm going to go.

Yeah.

You haven't finished your lunch.

I'm full.

Gosh, Gregory, I'm really sorry
to hear about you and your wife.

Oh, it's working out okay.

I'm looking forward
to the weekend.

I've moved into a condo.
I'm building a bookshelf.

Oh, and I'm working out
at the gym on Saturday.

Well, that's great. Seems like
a positive step towards healing.

With the same trainer
my wife left me for.

I am never going to prepay
for anything ever again.

But it sounds like you're
going to have a good weekend.

Ha! Yeah. Please.
If you're interested

in coming to a party
with cold pizza

and 20 or so screaming kids
all shooting at each other,

let me know.

Sounds like fun. Thanks.

Yeah, you're welcome.
(chuckles)

Sounds like fun?

What the hell just happened?

You invited your weird,

sad-ass boss to our
son's birthday party?

I don't know.
I didn't mean to.

I was obviously joking
when I made the offer.

Was he obviously joking
when he accepted?

It's not clear that he knows
what a joke is.

But maybe he does.
Look, I don't know.

Well, you better figure it out.
I want this day to be special.

Our little boy is
becoming a teenager.

You only get one
13th birthday.

Well, you only ever really
ever get one of each birthday.

You think that was a smart thing
to say right now, Dave?

I can't have that downer
at the birthday party.

I don't want the kids to see how
bad their lives could turn out.

What am I supposed to do?
He's my boss.

It's already weird.
This will just make it weirder.

Just give him the wrong date
by accident on purpose.

I do it all the time.

Is that why I missed
your birthday party

when we first moved here?

All right, it's looking good.
I'll see y'all later.

(mutters, sniffs)
H-H-Hey!

Check you out, Pop.
(chuckles)

Looking cleaner
than a game show host.

Ah. Survey says you ain't lying.

Okay. What's the occasion?

Well, me and Marty,

we're going to the bank
to get a loan.

Okay.
Hey, hey.

No!

What?

Go put on a suit.

What's wrong with this?

It's not a suit.

If there's one thing
I've learned,

it's that you have to look
like you have money

if you want people
to give you more money.

Well, then I'm good,
because this hoodie cost $250.

You paid $250 for gym clothes?

Go change.

But, Daddy...
Go on now.

Great to see you again, Calvin.

Marty. I remember when you
were just a little tyke,

running around the Pit Stop
with a baseball bat.

Oh, that was my other
son, Malcolm.

Oh, this is the nerd.

Mm-hmm.

How you doing?

Good. Good.

So, what am I looking at?

Well, you're looking
at the future here, Doug.

You see the people
who are out there driving

electric cars,
when they have a problem,

they're hostages
to the dealership.

We're going to give them
a better, cheaper option.

How are you going to do that?

Well, the first thing we have
to do is reverse...

Son, I got this.
Okay.

Kids.

Doug, the problem with
electric cars is that, one,

they're electrified, all right?

There's electricity.
You're dealing with that.

You mix that, obviously--
the electrons

of the electrolytes
is what happens, right?

And if you take these and you
remove each electro-size...

electron...
You know what, Marty?

Why don't you go ahead and
tell him what we're going to do.

Just gonna hop in right there.

First of all,
none of what you just said.

You see,

each car manufacturer

has its own
unique operating system.

And if you can figure out how to
reverse engineer it,

which,
with my background at JPL,

I can, then you can repair

any brand of electric car.
Hmm.

And we could do it
cheaper than the dealership.

Huh. That is an interesting
idea. And what would you be

securing the loan with?
Securing it?

Well, we never do a loan
this size without collateral.

Your home, investment property.

(stammers)
Doug, come on.

You don't need collateral
for an idea this good.

It's no risk.

I mean, you know me,
and I know you,

so that's collateral enough.
(laughing)

(laughing forcefully)
Oh, my God.

(chuckling)
Okay, Calvin. Sounds great.

There we go. There we go!
All right!

All right. So, uh,

how long are we talking?
Oh, very soon.

Just let me talk to my team,
run it up the flagpole.

There is no flagpole,
is there, Doug?

Well...

So you're not going to
give us the money?

I'm not.

But I didn't want to say it
in front of your little slugger.

I'm the nerd.

Hey, Gregory.

Uh, just curious.
When you said my son's

birthday party sounded like fun,
you were joking, right?

Were you joking?

Me? No.

Good. Because I spent
$600 on a gift.

(laughing)

That's funny.
You know, 600 dol...

It's your wife's loss. You are
way funnier than that trainer.

He doesn't have
to be funny.

He has abs.

But I wasn't joking.

You...

My God. Uh...

You got my son a PlayStation 5.

Yes. How weird
would it be if I showed up

at a kid's party without a gift?

(chuckles)
Right.

Sure. Because, you know,
that would be weird.

Yeah.

So the bank said no?
I don't know what happened.

I had on my best suit,
the cufflinks, the good cologne.

I even hit him with
my rich white guy chuckle.

(chuckles loudly)

Telling me we need collateral.
The Butler name is collateral.

(Tina groans)

You know what? Look,
you gave it all you got.

You know?

And if it's any consolation,
you look handsome.

Well, my dreams are shattered,
but my mama thinks I'm handsome.

It's a wash.

What am I hearing?

One rejection and y'all
are giving up?

Do you know how many times
the Wright brothers

crashed to the ground
before they were able to fly?

How many?

I don't know exactly, Pop,

but I'm sure
it was a bunch of times.

Marty doesn't need to
go crashing around in planes.

He needs to stay at JPL,
which is like a nice, safe bus.

Statistically, more people die
in buses than planes.

Stop hating on my point,
Marty.

I'm just saying that maybe

the universe
is telling us something.

Maybe Marty should keep
his nice,

steady job and
your father and I could

keep our nice, cozy nest egg.

I don't want to just
keep punching the clock at JPL.

Especially when we're
sitting on such a great idea.

And if we don't do it,
somebody else will.

You know what?
Maybe we should be pitching this

like a tech start-up.
Go venture capitalist.

Exactly. You see, they
have vision. They take risks.

Yeah, they move fast.
They break things.

So do toddlers.
What's your point?

What I'm saying is,
I know a guy that used

to work at JPL
who made a fortune on crypto.

Now he's an angel investor.

Angel investor?

That sound like a fancy way
of saying sugar daddy.

Marty, I ain't doing nothing
strange for some change.

Marty, I feel ridiculous.

I got on this big jacket,
and half my legs are out.

Dad, this is what
you have to wear when you're

meeting with
a young investor.

Well, it better work fast,

because I'm cold on the bottom
and I'm hot on the top.

(humming)

What was that?

That's who we're here to meet.

(grunting rhythmically)

Marty and Marty's dad!
Things are getting litty.

What is up?
Hey, thanks for
having us, Pike.

Pike? Is that your last
name or your first name?

Yes.

Guys, have a seat.

Uh, you know,
I think I'll stand.

I don't have beanbag knees.

Take a swing.

Yeah. Okay, sure.
Yeah, I'll just swing.

Okay.

All right.
Okay.

Yeah. Feeling litty.
Yeah, very good. Very litty.

Let's get into it.
Blow me away.

Use-use your legs, Daddy.

Okay.

Uh... You got to...

Hey, uh, I hate to
be-be rude here, but, uh,

is this a business
or a daycare center?

Ha! Daycare center.

I like this guy.

Yeah. My dad is hilarious.

I'm going to cut to the chase.

I read your guys' one-liner.

I'm very interested.

Okay, well,

we think there's
about to be

a huge market in EVs that are
falling out of warranty.

One question.

You're going to reverse engineer
the operating systems?

Yes.
I'm in.

Oh.

I'm sorry, I missed it, guys.

I'm in.
Oh!

So, wait a minute.

You don't have to, uh, talk
to your team or your-your mom?

(laughs)
I love this guy.

Okay. Whoa.

I only got one problem.
Uh-oh.

You guys aren't
asking for enough money.

We need to add a zero.

Well, all right!

Dudes, let's make history.

I'll text my guy to
wire you the money now.

Morton Alderman.
Yeah?

You're under arrest
for securities fraud,

wire fraud and
money laundering.

Securities fraud?
Marty, call my mom!

Officer, could you let him hit
"send" before you take him away?

Was he sending you money?

Money? No.

No, no, no, no, no.

No money. No, no.

He was sending me a meme.
Memes.

Y-You seen the one with the baby

on the horse,
and then the daddy come in?

And the daddy say,
"Give my baby back."

It was...

Yeah.
Let's get out of here.

(weapons chirping)

So not fair.

What happened?

We just won again.

Gregory is so good!

Yes, he is.

Every round, he zapped me

in the first five seconds.

You left yourself
wide open, man.

This game is so easy.

Gregory, you were
a sharpshooter in the Marines.

Hey, Gemma, thank you so much
for letting me bring a plus-one.

How you doing, Mumbles?

I didn't want
to leave him at home.

He's been having
some digestive issues.

Ah. Well, I just caught him
eating a whole box of donuts

but maybe that'll
help settle his stomach.

Mumbles, were you a naughty boy?

Hey, you know what, Gregory?
Maybe Mumbles needs some air.

You know, feel free to take...

(weapon chirping)

Come on, man. Really?

There are no rules in war,
David.

I am so sorry
you didn't get the money, guys.

But, look, don't
be discouraged.

There's so many other
things you can try.

Remember we went to that
farmer's market

and we saw that guy
who sold his own honey?

You thought that was so cool.

I need bees, Tina.

Oh, look.

Yeah.
David's friend.

Okay. Not right now, Gregory.
I am having a hard day.

Day? Must be nice.
I'm having a hard year.

My wife left me
for a guy who looks like

Brad Pitt in Fight Club.

Damn, that's prime Pitt.

It's not just his looks.
He's a risk-taker and I'm not.

I'm just a normie
with a nine-to-five

on his fourth
Toyota Corolla.

And now
look at me.

Here I am, stuck at
a kid's birthday party

I didn't even want to go to, but

Dave invited me
and then made it weird.

Hey, Gregory,
Mumbles is barking in his sleep,

and he is scaring the kids.

Oh, God.
The nightmares are back.

Oh...

Man.

What?

I'm Gregory.

What? What are you
talking about?

I'm Gregory.
Think about it.

I just lost my fianc e,
I'm stuck at

a boring job,
I'm playing it safe.

Oh, no. Come on, Marty.
It's not like that.

I drive a Chevy Bolt!

That's the Corolla
of electric cars.

Calm down, Marty,
we're still in this thing.

We'll...
We'll figure it out.

Calvin, I love that you're
supporting our baby's dream.

And I always will.

You know what?

Go for it.

Excuse me?

To hell with counting
on other people's money.

This is a great idea.
Whatever we need to do to

get that loan, let's do it.

Are you serious?

Baby, I believe in us.

You know, I was so
worried about the money,

I wasn't thinking
about what this meant for Marty.

I don't want him to end up
a sad man with a saggy dog.

Really, Mama?
Yes, baby.

So, Dad, are we back in?

Yes.
Yes!

We in it to win it.
You know what?

It's a risk we can handle
because we have the collateral.

We got the house.

Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You are risking the house?

All right, Pop,
that's what I'm talking about.

Betting on yourself.
That is bold.

I'm not that bold.

No, I'm risking your house.
Yeah.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, that seems
like a rash decision.

I like it, and I'm in.

Of course you're in, Marty.
It's your business.

I'm not even involved
and y'all risking my house.

Shh! Don't worry, baby.

Worst-case scenario,
you can move

back in with your mama.

I mean, it's a win-win for me.
(squeals)

And listen, Malcolm.

If we lose the house,

I'll give you your deposit back.

I didn't give you any deposit.

So what the hell
you complaining about?

LeBron to the hole. Boom!

Ha-ha! I love this game.

You know, this is the best
present Grover's ever got.

Can I get a turn?

In a minute.

You said that 90 minutes ago.

Well, I'm only down
43 points.

I can't believe Gregory
bought this boy a PS5.

Me neither.
I told him he could come over

and play it anytime.

You what?

Well, I mean,
I was obviously joking.

(doorbell rings)

It couldn't be, could it?

It is.

Ha! Gregory.

Surprised to see you here
on this Saturday night

at... 9:00 p.m.

Yeah, it wasn't my plan,

but Grover invited me
and then made it weird.

Guess I got next.
