Yo, yo, yo,
it's TheRealZiggyKatz here.

Just want to saydobry dzien

and happy Wednesday
to my friends in Minsk,

andni hao and happy Thursday
to my tigers out in Liajing.

Xie xie for waking up
so early.

And of course, dhonnobad

to all my devoted
Chittagong gals,

glad to see the floods

haven't affected
your internet connections.

Y'all look super clear
and ready for a show.

Today, I'm debuting
a tera lift new song

for my favorite people
in the whole, wide world,

My Hi-Hat fans.

Here's for
the birthday girl!

Yes! Oh, thank you!

Oh, look at that.
Looks good!

Evelyn!
Have a piece of cake!

What's the occasion?

It's Leslie's birthday!

Yup, I'm 21!

Some of the women
can hear the singing.

LESLIE:
Oh, no, really?

Yes, I'm doing intake

with a new resident
and her two children.

Shit. It's my fault.
My voice carries.

Me too.
Sorry, Evelyn.

We'll try
to keep it down.

Okay.

And we'll clean up
before your 3 o'clock.

Thank you.

Congratulations
on your birthday, Leslie!

There's a tajine
in the oven.

Did you have
a good day?

Ah, a woman came
into the shelter today.

She was about 26,
her kids were eight and four.

Last night,
her husband came home

and locked the kids
in the basement

while he assaulted
their mother upstairs.

The police came
and only spoke to the husband.

Luckily,
the eight year old

recorded the audio
on his phone.

So, you know,
every cloud, right?

How was your day,
my dear?

It was
very productive.

Good, I'm glad.

♪ That's the way

♪ The earthquake rumbles

Ziggy?

♪ The house of cards

♪ Falls down and tumbles

♪ Down

Woah,
that was the first time

I ever played that song.

I can't believe
it went so well.

I hope you guys
had as much fun as I did.

Remember to upnote me
in the corner,

and if you like what
you heard, feel free to tip.

And there's
the early bird,
Ludmila!

Nishrita, coming in
close second!

And not to be done outdone,

graciasto the Huertos family
for all your generosity.

You guys are all tera lift!

So make sure you all
come back next week

where I'll be debuting
a new song

about a girl
that I like at school.

This is TheRealZiggyKatz,
thanks for tuning in!

Mom!

Mom, did you try
to open the door

while I was
live streaming?

Ah, motherfucker.

Dad?

Yeah?Did Mom try
to open the door

while I was
live streaming?

ROGER:
I don't know,
ask her.

Mom, did you open my door
while I was... Shit! Sorry.

Did you try to open the door
while I was live streaming?

I'm taking
a shower, Ziggy.

Did you?

What's
"live streaming?"

Where I basically
make all my money.

Where thousands of kids

who are desperate
to hear me perform

log on every week
and tip me and upnote me

and I'm one of the highest
performers on the site.

Well,
that all sounds

very impressive.It is.

And, uh, what do you
plan on doing

with all that
hard-earned money?

Uh, spend it.

On what, my child?

I don't know.
Probably a new guitar

and a new mic and probably
a better translation software,

because I want to play
for African kids

and they have like a hundred
different languages there.

So you're going to use
the money you make

from playing your songs

to buy more equipment
to play your songs?

Yeah.

Well, that's
a tautological nightmare,

don't you think?

What?

Well, it sounds like
you're on an exhausting loop.

Have you thought
about an endgame?

Oh, an endgame?

I don't know,
I'm gonna be rich

and you're gonna be poor?

Oh, you're
going to be rich?

And I'm going
to be poor?

Yeah, just don't
open my door again.

When you're live streaming?ZIGGY: Right.

Right.

Hmm.And the hearts of palm.

Wow. Where'd
you get the chicken?

Patsy's farm.

She also had a surplus
of tomatoes, which I bought.

Oh, very good.

I'll make a gazpacho
tomorrow.

I mean, it's basically
giving the guitar away.

To get a Strat
from that year
at that price

is basically free,
you know?

Just make sure
you don't play the blues!

What?

You don't play
blues music, do you?

No, I play folk rock.

Classic folk rock
with alternative influences.

I don't know
what that means.

Well...

I could play it for you.

I just debuted
a new song,
Truthaches.

I could show it to you.What did you
say it's called?

Did you say Truthaches?

Yeah.
Do you want to hear it?

Well, I'm assuming
that we're

not your
target audience.ZIGGY: Right.

I mean, it's geared
towards teenagers,
am I right?

Yeah, I... Sure.

Because it's
incredibly unethical...

White people
playing blues music.

Did you ever read
Amiri Baraka?

Who?Roger, please.

Because he's very explicit
on the issue

of cultural
appropriation.Jesus Christ, Roger!

Dad, I don't play
blues music.

God, just shut
the fuck up.

Okay, okay!
I was just...

I was just saying.

Hey, Mom,
can you drive me today?

Are you ready
to go now?

Yeah, just give me,
like, five seconds.

You're
on the city council,

how difficult is it

to get some goddamn painters
in here, Homer?

We have women coming in,
it's the middle of

the goddamn night, they have
nowhere to park their cars.

We're talking about two white
lines on the fucking asphalt.

Um, Ms. Katz?

I just wanted
to let you know
I just did outtake.

Hold on
a second, Homer.

Yeah, I'm going home.

Well, to my sisters,

but I'm getting
out of here.

Yay, me!

That's wonderful, dear!

Can I give you a hug?

Um, yes. Of course.

You saved my life.

You saved my daughter's life.

I'm very proud of you, dear.
Very proud of you.

I'm sorry
about that, Homer.

What?LILA: No, no, no.

The US not only ignores
human rights abuses,

but they purposely,
maliciously profit off them!

And the worst offense

is this sanctimonious,
savior complex

where we're distributing
our morally superior values

to the unwashed masses,

like they're just,
sitting around the desert

waiting for someone
to descend from the heavens.

But what
would you rather,

for China to swoop in?

Or maybe Russia?

Or maybe some other
amoral actor?

It's not like
the US steps out...

Yo, Z,
you want a hit?

No. Shut up,
I'm trying to listen.

CYRI:
...starts handing out
free bread.

By that logic,

we should just occupy
every country

that might be
at a slight risk
of intervention

because
we're the bastion

of peace
and equity.Yeah, I feel like...

Thank you for
making my point.

I was
being sarcastic.BECKY: Oh, no. Don't do this.

So was I.
Thank you.LILA: You're infuriating!

Yo, I agree
with you, Lila.

Thank you, Ziggy!
See, someone's got my back!

Yeah, of course, man.

Uh, huh. Yeah.LILA: Yeah. Very.

How?

What?

How do you
agree with Lila?

Oh, shit, yeah.

Um...

Well, you mentioned
China, right?

Yeah.

Cause I play music for these
Chinese girls on Hi-Hat.

I actually have
like 20,000 followers,

and I'm in the
top percentage
of performers. I'm...

I'm validated
and I'm starred,

which is tera
hard to get.

And, like, the girls
I play for are super dope.

There's this one girl,
SeaKitten, that's her handle,

who tipped me
20 credits last week...

...after I wished her
a happy birthday so...

So, I guess, just in terms
for what you're saying, Lila,

like, I totally
agree with you.

BECKY:
A stirring defense!

Becky, don't
be a dick.

Ladies.WOMAN 1: Oh, hey.

And he's not a big guy
and he wasn't even drunk,

but he's got his hands
around my neck.

Was this the first time
he did this?

Well, it was the first time
that day.

Then, he just kind of gets up.
He says he's got to go pee.

Mmm-hmm. And then
you called the police?

No, I didn't call the police.

Oh. Um...

It says, uh...

Sergeant McKenna
brought you in. I thought...

Oh.ANGIE: Right, well,
Kyle called the police.

Yeah, uh, I called them.

Eh, where were you?

I was just next door
at Sean's.

Yeah,
his friend Sean's.

They've been
friends since...Right...

Whatever....forever. Like...

So she
texted me, and, uh,
I ran back home.

How old
are you, Kyle?

Seventeen.

He's my little

knight in
shining armor.KYLE: Mom.

You are.

You're the only
good thing in my life.

Thank you.It's true.

It's true,
kids are just
pure love.

Do you know
what I mean?

Mmm-hmm.

You know, when he was just
six years old, um, Ms...

I'm sorry,
what's your
name again?

I'm Evelyn.

Evelyn.

Shit, I'm sorry.

Well, when Kyle
was six years old,

his father hits me

and I get this nasty cut
over my eyebrow,

and I didn't even know
that Kyle knew anything.

I mean, who knows what
kids know about their parents?

But, anyway,
he comes into the room,

he says he's had a bad dream,

can I come
and stay in his bed?

Mom, stop.

No, she needs
to hear this, okay?

So, anyways,
we're laying in bed

and I just whisper to him,

"Do you want to tell me
about your nightmare?"

And he says,
"I didn't have a nightmare."

He just knew I needed to get
out of that room, you know?

He's only six years old.

So, he just...

I'm a bad mother.EVELYN: Angie.

No, no, no.
I'm a bad mom.

Angie, you're not
a bad mother.

You're in
the right place.

You're very,
very safe

and you'll have
two very comfortable beds

for as long
as you need.

All right, well...

Hey, Mom,
you know what I think

you could use right now?

What?

A new tissue.

That's... That's... Yeah,
don't touch me with this...

Take that.

All right,
okay, sorry.

Thanks.

Hello?

What the hell
are you doing?

Installing a
red beacon light

so people know
when I'm live streaming.

And by people
you mean...I mean you.

Well, I...

And to a lesser
extent, Dad.

Well, it's nice
to be ranked first.

Yeah, so when
this light is on,

you don't knock or come in
or make any noise.

All right,
and when it's off

I'm free to go about
my business,

to enjoy the rich
pageantry of life?

What? Yeah, sure.

Yeah.
It's a good system.

You know, there are a couple
of projects around the shelter

that could use a handyman.

Like what?

Uh, well, I've been waiting
on these goddamn painters

to come out for this residents
parking spot out front.

Oh, yeah?

Mmm-hmm.
Just some white paint
with some blue trim.

Wouldn't the city
need to do that,

if it's like,
a street parking spot?

I suppose so,

but I'm sure there's a bunch
of other stuff.

Just some bathroom mirrors
and some...

And light fixtures.

Maybe on the weekend,

you could come in
for a couple of hours

and then afterwards
we could...

We could go out
to dinner together?

This weekend?Yes.

And it'd be, like,
as a volunteer?

As opposed to what?

A paid employee.

Oh, yes.
A volunteer.

I'm busy
this weekend.

Uh, okay.Yeah,
so it'd be impossible.

You're a very lucky boy.

What?

Nothing.Nothing.

I didn't know you'd be here.
What a cool coincidence.

Lots of people
from school are here.

It's not that mind blowing.

Yeah, totally.
It's like,

"Hey, everybody from school.
Tera lift to see you guys."

Cool.

Well, it was good
to see you.
Have a nice time.

Hey, I thought
it was lift

the way you were
talking the other
day at lunch.

Like, about all
the political stuff.

I just thought you
were super honest
and passionate.

And, like, I write music.

Yeah, you were saying.Yeah,
and in my music,

I'm all about
being passionate
and honest too. And...

I have 20,000 followers,

and I think what
they like about me

is my passion
and charisma.

And I thought
you had that too.

Thanks.

Uh, I don't really think
about it in those terms,

like, as a commodity.

Oh, lift.

Have you ever thought
about what you could do

with a platform
like that,

or are you just happy
taking people's money?

Um, I guess
the first thing.

Because it sounds
like you have a really
good opportunity

to start a
grassroots movement

about
environmental issues

that concern you
or political corruption,

especially if you're
streaming in countries
that are in need

of organizing
from non-political
actors.

Yeah,
I don't know, man.

I think I'm more
of a vacation.

Like, they deal
with all that shit
all day.

Like the corruption,
and the poverty
or whatever.

Like,
they're just, like,

wandering
the dirty streets
of their towns,

and then
they come home,

and they see my page
and it's, like...

Right.

Like, sometimes I feel
like the world would be

a better place

if people
just chilled out

and listened
to music, you know?

Hmm.

But, I mean,

I guess
I could think about it.

It could be kind of lift
to change it up sometime.

Yeah, it could be.

Because, like you said,
I got a huge platform, 20,000.

So...

Hear ye! Hear ye!

We will not stand by.

We will stand up
through revolutionary art.

Let the performances commence.

Are you gonna
do anything?

I have a poem.

Oh, lift,
I have a song.

It's starting,
it's starting.

Yo, yo, yo, what's up?
What's up?

This piece is
about the patriarchy,

of which
I'm a reluctant member.

Sonia, hello.How you doing?

Hello.KYLE: Oh.

Hey, Evelyn,
how you doing?

Very well,
thank you.

How about you?
Do you like it here?

Do you have
any complaints?

Oh, no, not really.

I mean, it's great.

My mom's happy here,
that's the main thing.

Hmm. What are you
working on over there?

It's algebra.

Oh, I would offer
to help you,

but I don't remember
how to do it.

It's cool. I... It comes
kind of easy to me.

Well, you're
naturally very bright.

Where do you
go to school?

Hamilton.Oh, my son
goes there.

It's a big school.Yes, it's too big,

I think.

So, I need your help
with something.

What?I need
someone tall.

I used to rake in like 200
to 250 bucks in a weekend.

Oh, that's quite
a lot of money.You think?

I do. I...
I do think...

But the restraining order kind
of killed the whole thing.

I mean,

any guy that hits his
wife is terrible my book,

but I could take it,
you know?

Now, I literally got
no income.

Well, would you ever want
to work anywhere

besides
the autobody shop?

I don't know,
my dad owned the place,

so it was kind of perfect.

It'd be like your son
working here.

You said you
had a son, right?

Yes.Yeah, so it'd be
a sweet job.

I mean, if your mom
owned the place.

Oh, um, can you pass me
a screwdriver?

The, um, yellow one?Oh.

The flat head.Oh!

The yellow one?KYLE: Yes.

Thank you.EVELYN: Here you go.

And I was
seriously good at it, too.

I mean, my dad
used to say

that, uh, kids make
the best mechanics,

because they got
tiny little fingers.

Actually, it sounds
kind of creepy
when I say that.

It does sound
a little creepy, yes.

You're not going
to become him.

What?

You're not going
to become him, Kyle,

if that's what you're
worried about.

What? No... Why would I...
I'm not worried about that.

Oh, right.
Of course not.

Why would I become him?
He's a dick.

Yes. Yes. No...
My mistake.

I'm like a normal dude.

Yes, you are.

You are. You're...

You're better than normal.

I was, um...

I was very taken with the way
you behaved with Angie,

with your mother
the other night.

What do you mean?

Well, you were
very gentle
with your mother

at a very
vulnerable time.

Um, if I can
speak freely,
I was moved.

Yeah, well, my mom's
gotten the shit

kicked out of her
since she was born.

I know. Do you?

Well, I...
I can imagine.

Kyle, would you be

open to discussing options
for your future

other than the body shop?

Like what?

Well, are there any other jobs
you might be interested in?

Uh, when I was a kid,

I always wanted
to play for the Pacers.

The Pacers?

Yeah, the
basketball team.Oh, right, yes!

Well, um, is there
anything else?

Anything a little
more practical?

The body shop's
practical.

Yes, of course.
Yes. Yes, it is.

You know...

I was just like you.

When I was your age,

I was determined
to become the editor

of Rolling StoneMagazine.

And then when
I went to college, I...

I met someone
who introduced me

to a life
of social service.

And I'm,
I'm embarrassed

that I ever considered
anything else.

Yeah, I mean, yeah.

But people still need
to have their cars fixed.

Oh, of course they do.

So it's not like
a totally stupid job.

Oh, yes. Yes, no, it's...
It's a very good job.

It's...
It's a very
important job.

But you have
an unusual heart, Kyle.

I mean, most...
Most boys your age

can't bring
themselves to be kind,

and you can't
help yourself.

You really think so?

You're a special person.

I'm sorry.

No, it's cool.

You know,
my friend Margaret runs

the social work
program at Oberlin.

Where's Oberlin?

Well, it's, uh,
just next door
in Ohio.

It's actually
a very beautiful town,

and you'd be surrounded
by, by people like you.

Bright, curious,
good, young people.

How much is it?

Well, there are all
sorts of scholarships

for people like...
For people
in your situation,

and Margaret
owes me a favor.

Let me make
a few calls.

Seriously?Absolutely.

Yo, thank you
so much, Evelyn.

It is unquestionably
my pleasure.

Ohio.

And we both
never tell a lie.

Or do we?

That was very powerful.
Thank you so much.

Um, up next
we have Lila Stryjewski

with an original poem.

Yo, good luck, Lila.

Not that you need it.

Hi, everybody.

Um...

This is something I wrote
about the Marshall Islands.

They're in the Pacific Ocean,

and they've been
exploited for centuries,

and now they're literally
sinking due to the effects

of global warming.

Um...

I don't know
if it's any good or...

I guess
that doesn't really matter.

Anyway, here it is.

"Floating little worlds
Bobbing in the sea

"Unsuspecting

"Unexpecting

"War to shed his grace on thee

"So it's 1526

"When the Spaniards
starts to run

"Like Pamplona bulls

"Then it's German New Guinea

"But the age old story

"And I'll give you the skinny

"But you're not"

Thanks.

Lila?

Hey, dude.

That was amazing.

Like, transcendent
or whatever.

Yo, sorry, man. I didn't
know where you went.

Who gives a shit?Hey, Lila.

Hey, Jackie.Lift poem.

Would you mind if I read
what you wrote?

What do you mean?

The poem.
Can I, like, have it?

What are you gonna do with it?

I don't know. Murder people
by paper cutting them?

No, I just...
I want to read it again.

Uh, next up we have Ziggy Katz

with an original song.

He's new here tonight,
so be nice.

I guess that's me.
Duty calls, man.

He's a fucking genius.

Mmm.

Bloomington!
How's everybody feeling?

All right.

Um, I wrote this song

when I graduated junior high,

and I had to say goodbye
to all my friends.

Sometimes, saying goodbye
to good friends is tera hard.

Those people are
a bunch of idiots,

they only care
about political shit.

You're like a real artist.

What are you talking about?
They loved me.

No, they didn't.

Those people were visibly
rolling their eyes.

I heard one girl say,
"This is bullshit."

And another one say,
"This is lame bullshit."

Dude, if I worried about every
fucker who didn't like me,

I'd never wake up
in the morning.

It's the nature of success.Oh.

Yo, Moms, what's up?

I'm not shouting, Ziggy.

I'll speak to you
when you're closer.

Hello.

Hey.

How was your day?

It was great, yours?

Also very good, thank you.

Hello.

Where the fuck
were you guys?

-School, man.
-I was at work.

Oh. Today was
my Chancellor Ceremony.

You knew this.
You both knew this.

Oh, shit. Was that today?Oh, my God.

I'm so sorry.ROGER: Oh, don't worry.

I'm sure they'll give me

another lifetime achievement
award at some point.

Dad, I am so sorry.

I had some important shit
to take care of,

and I just thought that
Mom was gonna be there.

Well, yeah, I guess I thought
that Ziggy was gonna be there,

so, I...Jesus fucking Christ.

What?You both could have come.

The two of you.

The two of us what?

Everyone around me
is a narcissist.

What does that say
about you?

That I'm unlucky.

I'm going upstairs to read,
try to keep it down.

He seems upset.

Ziggy, don't sneak up
on me like that.

Oh, sorry, can you take me
to school?

Are you ready to
go right now?

I'm right here, dude.

Can I change the music?

To what?Literally anything else.

I like to listening
to this music

on the way to work.

It's elitist.No, it's not.

Of course it is. It's just
a bunch of rich, white men.

I don't care about that stuff,
but you pretend to,

so I just thought
you should know

it's kind of hypocritical.

Okay, thank you
for the advice.

Sure.

You doing anything
interesting in school today?

No.Reading any books?

Yeah, we're doing, um,

To Kill A Mockingbird
in lit class.

It's always Harper Lee
and never Toni Morrison.

What?No, nothing,

I would just... I would just
suggest you push yourself

beyond the curriculum there.

Mom.Yes?

Do you think
I could be political?

I'm sorry, what?

Like, there are these kids
at school,

and, like, they're super
political and stuff,

and I was just wondering
if maybe

you thought
that I could be too.

Mmm-hmm.

What do they talk about,
these other kids?

Just, like, everything,
like wars

and politicians,
and the environment.

What do they say
about all that?

Well, they're against
most of it.

I mean, not the environment,
they're for that.

Oh, that's a relief.

So, um,
what are you asking me?

Well, you're interested
in that stuff too,

so I was just wondering
if, like,

you had anything
for me to say to them.

To get them to like you?

What? No. I...

I want to be smart
and interested too.

Well, it sounds to me
like you want a shortcut

to sound intelligent, to get
some kids to like you.

I don't want a shortcut.

No? Well, no,
what is it then?

Because, I mean, if you want
to talk to these kids,

then you should just listen
to what they're saying

and form your own opinion.

I'm not gonna spoon-feed you

some cool line
about the Middle East

because you won't
learn that way.

Half the time
they're talking,

I don't even know
what they're saying.

Because you haven't
done the work.

What work?Well...

Well, you can't just jump
right int the middle

of a debate about something
which you know nothing about.

Yeah, okay.

Look, if you don't
make the effort

to understand the issues
that are affecting society,

then your problems
extend far beyond

impressing your classmates,

and there's no shortcut
that I can give you...

Mom stop saying
fucking "shortcut"!

You know,
when you were
a little boy,

I brought you to every march,
every protest.

You were my little ally.

You'd play
all our protest songs

on that plastic rainbow guitar
that we got you.

Where Have All
The Flowers Gone,

The Fiddle and The Drum,

There Once Was A Union Maid.

You remember that?

Your life was gonna be happier

because you were
part of the struggle.

You were gonna be
one of the good ones.

And then something
switched in you.

You stopped being
interested in anything

outside your own little world,
and I...

I would take you with me,

but you would
always want to go home.

Sorry about that.

Now, I know that you want
to impress these kids.

But it's not going
to impress them,

if it doesn't come
from a sincere place.

So, do the work. Read.

Educate yourself
and then I'll help you.

And then we can talk about

some things for you
to say, okay?

Yeah.

Does that sound like a plan?

Yeah, it does.

Thanks for the advice.Of course.

Have a good day, son.

Jesus, Ziggy!

I'm gonna go get
some baking soda.

Yo, Lila, what's up?

Hey, Ziggy.

Just getting some
baking soda or whatever.

Cool, man.

Hey, I just wanted
to say that I was, like,

rereading your poem
from the party.

I just think it was so lift.

Like, I love the phrasing
and the build and everything.

It's actually
tera sophisticated.

Thanks for the validation.

But you should probably
put your goggles back on

before Mr. Ryan sees.

What's he gonna do?
Arrest me?

You're a rebel.Yup.

Just got the baking soda.

Actually, I'm just gonna
go get some more.

You're not gonna
help me?

Jackie, fuck off,
I'm doing something important.

Hey, and I also
just wanted to say...

Jesus, stop fucking
sneaking up on me.

Oh, sorry.

Uh, I also just wanted to say,

I know you talk about politics
all the time

and I probably don't look like
I know what I'm talking about,

but I actually know a lot
about all that stuff.

Like, you probably
wouldn't know

because I focus
so hard on my music,

but when I was a kid,

I went to every protest,
and every sit-in

and I was a real ally.

I even played
these protest songs

on this little plastic guitar.

Like There once Was
A Union Maid...

MR. RYAN: Ziggy, goggles.Yup, shit, sorry.

MR. RYAN: Don't say "shit."Yup.

So, that's just,
like, what I wanted to say.

Thank you for saying it.

You're welcome.

Ziggy.Yeah?

You don't have
to be interested in politics.

But I am.

No, you're not.
It's obvious, but it's cool.

You think I'm stupid?

No, no, I didn't say that.

So, can you teach me?

About what?

I watch you talk about things.

Like... Like, big things.

And you talk about them
with such passion,

like the way most people talk

about shit
they just want to buy,

you talk about the world.

I want to be like that.

I want to be like you.

Hello, Marci.

Hi. Hi, Evelyn.

Are you having a good day?

Mmm-hmm. Yeah, it's good.
So far so good.

Is your work going well?

Yeah, it's great.

Do you enjoy it?
Do you enjoy the work?

Yeah, of course,

it's very rewarding.

Will you tell me again how
long you've been working here?

Um, it'll be two years
next month.

Are you firing me?

No. Oh, no, no, dear.
You're a wonderful employee.

No, I'm just talking.

The elevator takes so long
to come here.

That was a nice conversation.

Oh, hi.

Hello, I just, um, wanted
to see if you were all right,

if you needed anything
from me or from any of us.

No, it's been great,

everyone is so helpful, and...

Good, good.

Yeah. Uh, do you
want to come in?

Oh! Sure, why not?

Is Kyle here?

Oh, he's just in
the bathroom.

Uh, honey, Evelyn is here.KYLE: Hey.

Oh, jeez.

How's it going?

Oh, very well. I was just
checking up on you,

making sure everything was
to your liking.

And I said it was and...

Is your shirt okay?

Oh, uh, yes, it is. I don't
know why I put this here.

Um, I brought you
this hat, Kyle.

Indiana Acers.

Yes, I noticed that,

I think the P fell off
in the dryer.

It was my son's,
but he no longer wears it.

He wears...

Well, actually, I don't...
I don't know...

I don't know
what he wears anymore.

Anyway, um, that is for you.

Thank you so much, Evelyn.

I remember you said
you liked them.

He loves them!

Evelyn! Kyle, say thank you.

I just did, Mom.

Well, it was the least
I could do.

Kyle was very helpful
with some minor repairs

around the shelter.

Oh, I heard. He said it was
the highlight of his week.

Well, I like staying busy.

Oh, um, well, in that case,

how would you like to
run an errand with me?

Mom?

You don't mind
if I borrow him,
do you, Angie?

Sure.

Feel free to change
the station

if there's something else
you'd like.

No, this is cool.

It's not too stuffy?

Okay,
now that's everything.

All right.

Kyle, just, um, just put these
in wherever it'll fit.

Don't be precious about it.KYLE: Gotcha.

Not too heavy?

Of course not.

Is that your son?

No, no, no,
he's just a...

He's just a kid
who works at the shelter.

So, you'll appreciate this,
Kyle,

Marcella does
all the translations

for Spanish speakers
at the shelter.

The women are
in and out of court

all the time with custody

and orders of protection,
and you cannot imagine

how rigged the system is

against non-native
English speakers.

But Marcella is a genius.Please.

And that is not
an exaggeration.

I'm not a genius.

No, no, no.

You're more effective than
any lawyer we've ever hired.

Look, you can
tell him the truth.

I used to be a resident
at the shelter.

Oh, really?

My husband... My ex-husband
and I was undocumented.

I couldn't go to the police,

and I couldn't go back
to Honduras.

Shit. I'm sorry
that happened to you.

Thank you.

My mom and I
are living there now.

Yeah, my dad's kind of a...

I know.

What was that?

Oh, sorry, I was just saying

that my dad's
not really a great guy.

Uh, you speak Spanish?

I mean, high school Spanish.

My goodness, you are
full of hidden talents!

Oh, I guess
I just got a good ear.

Uh, okay, Kyle, I think that
we should be heading back.

I don't want your mother
to worry.

Oh, I don't think
that she'll worry...

No, no. We really should go.

Uh, Marcella, thank you.
Thank you so much for this.

It was great to see you,

and I will just, um,

I will just bring my mug
into the kitchen.

No, leave it.No, no, I've got it.

I'm gonna pop it
into the dishwasher.

Oh, are these clean or dirty?

Marcella seems pretty cool.

She's fine. Do you want to
get something to eat?

Oh, I'm cool just to
go back if you want.

No, let's... Let's get you
something to eat.

I owe you.

Hello?

Hello?

Mom?

I don't suppose

you've had Ethiopian food
before, have you?

Uh, no, definitely not.

You have to
eat with your hands.

I hope that's all right.Do they give you gloves?

That's cute.

I... I think you'll enjoy it.

My son used
to love coming here,

and then
he started complaining

that it made
his hands feel dirty.

That makes sense.

No! You know people
get their hands dirty,

it's a fact of life.

You understand that
because you work with cars.

I feel like I should've
brought a fork.

Oh, no, stop it.

You're gonna be just fine.

After you!

Thank you.

Hi.Oh, Jesus. Fuck, Dad!

When did you get home?

Just now! Where's Mom?

Working late, I guess.

Okay.

Do you want to, like,
order a pizza or something?

I made a duck.

You want some wine?

No thanks, Dad.

Yeah, it's not
very good anyway.

So which one is Marci again?

When you walk in,
she's the first desk.

You've seen her
a million times.

With the thick glasses?Mmm-hmm, yeah.

Exactly, Marci.

And she used to be
a wrestler?

Mmm-hmm, I'm serious.

Like, "This Thursday
at Bankers Life Arena,

"I challenge you, Undertaker,
in a fight to the death!"

No, no, no, no.

No, no, not like that.

No, college wrestling, you
know with the ugly one piece

and the soft helmet?

Oh, I can't imagine her
doing that.

And apparently she
was ranked very highly.

She was at IU?

Mmm-hmm, big 10 school,
full ride.

For wrestling?For wrestling,

they give out scholarships
for anything.

That's what we have
to find for you.

Right.

I'm still nudging my friend
at Oberlin,

but worst-case scenario,
we get you in IU

with a scholarship or aid.

They make the process
unnecessarily

complicated these days.

Yeah, I was, um, thinking
about all that,

like, since you mentioned it
the other day.

Good. Oh, me too.

Um, this is embarrassing,
but I actually got

an online subscription to
US News and World Report

just to check
the college rankings.

Oh, Evelyn, you don't have
to do all that for me.

Oh, no, but I want to.
I want to do it.

Have you thought
about a personal essay?

What's that?

Well, it shouldn't
be hard for you

because you've been through
so much.

But we'd have to codify it
in a way that feels academic.

Right.And it should be fun.

You know?
It should be fun for us.

Cool.

Cool.

Um...

So do you like the food?

I do, yeah.

I mean, it mostly just tastes
like regular vegetables,

but it's good.

Because you're kind of
avoiding the red goopy stuff.

Yeah, because the red goopy
stuff is insanely spicy.

You know, in Ethiopia,
not eating the red goopy stuff

is extremely disrespectful.

Shit, really?

Mmm-hmm, in fact,
if you don't eat it,

they might even ask us
to leave.

Okay.

Shit. All right.

Oh, God.

Kyle.

Oh, God.Oh, Kyle.

I need a water.Here take mine, take mine.

I... I was kidding.

Jesus.

"It's extremely
disrespectful."

Kyle... Kyle,
you need to lighten up.

Oh, no, no.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Don't spit it out because
now they really will

ask us to leave.

Okay, good, I'm ready to go.

Ziggy?

Yup?

Are you happy?

What?

Are you happy?

Are you really asking me?

Of course.

Um...

Yeah, I mean, I think so.

I mean, like, I'll have a
good thought in my head,

you know, like,
"You just wrote a lift song."

And, then, later I'll be
feeling bad about something.

I mean, it could be anything,

and the feeling
doesn't feel good anymore.

Does that make sense?

Like, I'll have
a logically good thought,

but my feeling is still bad.

And it just kills me because
it means that my thoughts

and my feelings
are disconnected,

and I could be
the most popular

songwriter in the world,

but it still won't
solve any real problems.

Because no matter what I do
in this world,

I'll always, kind of,
have a lingering pain.

Yeah.

Mmm.

Why are you asking me?

'Cause I'm reading
this fascinating article

about teen suicide

and it's highest in
your specific age group.

Oh.

And you being white and upper
middle class and educated,

it's very high
for people like you.

Okay, thanks, Dad.

You want to read it?No.

Mom's home.EVELYN: Hello, boys!

I made a duck.

Oh, boo!
I already ate.

You did?

Yes,
but I'll sit with you,

and I'll certainly have
a glass of something.

I opened the Malbec,
but it's not very good.

Oh, stop it,
Malbec's always good.

Hey, Mom.

Hello, Ziggy.

Dad's reading a fascinating
article about teen suicide.

So what did you eat
for dinner?

I took Marci to the
Ethiopian restaurant.

It was her second year
anniversary

of working at the shelter

and I wanted to do
something nice for her.

It was delicious.

We ate with our hands
and it was very interesting.

Yeah, I know,
I love that place.

Mmm.

No, you don't.

Of course I do,
we used to go all the time.

Yeah, and you told me
it made you feel dirty.

It did, I had lentils
and shit all over my hands,

but I still liked it.

Oh, I didn't realize.
Maybe we can go back sometime.

Yeah, sure, maybe,
I don't know.

I have to go upstairs
and write a new song.

I'm live streaming
tomorrow, so.

Oh, don't worry, Dad and I'll
clean up your plate.

No, no, no,
it's all right.

I worked all day
and I'll just come home

and clean up after you,
I don't mind.

What do you mean
you worked all day?

You just went out
to fucking dinner.

Ziggy, calm down.

Excuse me, I was with Marci,

we were discussing a grant.
It was work.

Yeah, I'm sure
it was really important

that you discussed a grant
at a cool restaurant

you used to take me to.

I don't have to defend
myself to you, Ziggy,

you're a child.Yeah and you're a shitty mom.

Ziggy, sit back down.Shut up, Dad! Shut up, Dad!

Oh, you're a wonderful son.
I'm so very lucky.

You know what?
My songs make more money

than you'll ever see
in your fuckin' lifetime!

My songs will reach
more people

you'd ever dream of reaching

in your little shelter
in Indiana!

Oh, okay. Yeah, go write
your little teenage songs...

Fuck off.

♪ Kissing hands... Shut up. Mom, shut up!

♪ La, la, la, la, la

Yo, I'm actually
writing a song right now!

It's a political song.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah! And it's gonna be
so political,

it's gonna change
the fucking world!

And you're gonna be
so embarrassed

that you didn't think of it.

Ziggy, Ziggy,
even if you wrote

the best,
most political-est song,

I doubt I'm gonna wish
that I wrote it.

Just try not
to make any noise.

Ev.I know, stop.

Lila, hey.Yo.

I don't wanna interrupt
your time or anything,

I know that this is, like,

probably your favorite thing
in the world,

but I just wanted to say that
I wrote something for you.

And if you had any interest
or any time,

I'd love to play for you.

Like, outside,
alone if possible.

You wanna head out now?

Yeah, really?

Sorry, I'm just
a little nervous,

I've been, like,
practicing all day,

so that's probably why.

It's actually a little cold.

Yeah, yeah, so why don't, uh,
you sit there so that,

you know,
you're comfortable, right?

Uh, yeah, sure.

Dude, you're making
me nervous.

Oh, shit, sorry.

I'll just sit here
on the ground.

Shit, it's actually
a little tough

to play from this position.

Do you wanna
come sit up here?

Where are you gonna sit?

I'm gonna sit here too.

Oh. Lift.

Okay, um,
here it goes.

Sorry, it's a little smushed.

Hey, guys.

Hey, stranger,
where have you been?

Just at a party
with some friends.

Anybody we know?

No, just actually some
really smart kids.

Some really political kids,
actually.

You wanna to sit down
and eat with us?

Oh, no, actually I have

a livestream
in, like, 20 minutes.

You could just sit for a sec.

Oh, no, guys, sorry,
thanks anyway.

Rog?

I left something
at the office.

I'm gonna go down there.

You want me
to go for you?

No.

Hey there,
smarty pants.

Evelyn, hey, what are
you doing here?

Oh, silly me,
I made too much food

and I thought
you might be hungry.

Thanks.

I actually
already ate, though.

Oh, it's pot roast.

Yeah, shit.

Sorry, my mom and I
just ate a couple hours ago.

Oh, yes, of course,
that makes sense.

Um, well, I left some
paperwork at the office

and that's why
I came in, primarily.

Well, yeah.

Thank you, so... Yeah,

thanks so much anyways.

Um...

Oh, I, um, I think we'll have
some good news

from Oberlin tomorrow.

Very exciting!

I've secured two sponsorships,

both for $10K from Hair Today

and one
from the Clifford family.

Oh, well, that's tremendous.

Fred has never been
particularly eager

to part with his money.

But the downside

is we're only half sold
as of now.

I'm sorry, Evelyn.

Yeah, sorry.

Oh, no need to apologize.

You're doing the best you can.

But, last year
at this time, we were sold.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

Oh.
I'm sorry I'm interrupting.

You all right, Angie?

Uh, can I talk to you
for a sec?

Oh, yes, yes, of course.

I shall return.

I don't know
how to tell you this.

Well, tell me what?Well, it's about Kyle.

Oh, is he all right?

Is he hurt?No, he's fine.

Oh! Oh, good!

Oh, don't scare me like that.

Kyle's going to be fine.

Oh, no, I know that.

No, I don't think you do.

No, I do.
He is an amazing kid.

You're very lucky.

I'm lucky.

Well, I believe that
Kyle has told you his plans

on working with his father
after he finishes school

at his father's shop?

The car repair shop.

Right, the car repair shop,
yes.

Uh, yes, yes,
we've been discussing that

and I've been encouraging him

to think outside the box
a little bit.

There are some
wonderful programs

where I think
that Kyle would excel.

He's... He's very curious.

He's unusually sensitive.

Yeah, I know that.

Of course, you do,
you're his mother.

Yeah, well, Kyle feels good
working with his father.

He already works weekends.
He makes good money,

and he feels good
about himself,

and you're trying to
push him into someplace

that's gonna make
him feel stupid.

No one's gonna make

that boy feel anything
less than brilliant,

anything less than what he is.

Well, he feels good
working with his father,

maybe not brilliant, but he
feels good about himself.

Well, imagine how good...

Imagine how amazing he would
feel with a college degree,

with something that he had

no expectation
of ever getting.

I think he must feel pretty
amazing when someone says,

"Hey, kid, you fixed my car.
You're 17 years old,

"and you fixed a car that
hasn't turned over in a year.

"Now I can get
to work on time.

"Now I can pick my kids up
from school."

Yes, yes, yes,

and I'm sure
that is a wonderful feeling,

and that is exactly
what I am offering him,

that feeling times a million.

Okay, well we don't want it.

You don't...
You don't want it,

or does Kyle not want it?

Yeah, I don't want it.

I mean, I think
we're gonna need

that kind of space.

Yeah, I mean,
it's a little echoey,

but the biggest problem
I'm having is Steven.

He's, like, texting me
every five minutes.

He thinks he's gonna be
the emcee.

He's working on his jokes,

but we're gonna
have kids there.

Well, I think the kids
are more important

as far as the community
and everything is involved.

Paging Kyle Marks.

Would Kyle Marks please
report to the office?

I repeat, would Kyle Marks
please report to the office?

Hey, get me a muffin!Yo, shut up, man!

Oh, my God,
haven't you seen that?

I know, it's like,
I don't even know

what to wear.

It's like,
you're egotistical. Really?

What, narcissism
and arrogance?

Well, I...

Yo, yo, yo,
how's it going everybody?

Hey, Lila.

Sit down, sit down,
Troubadour.

Oh, lift!

Cool, no, I don't
wanna interrupt anything.

So, uh, what are you guys
talking about?

Becky's thinking about
getting her tongue pierced.

Which is obviously
a terrible idea.

Yes, I am. It's my tongue.

Uh-uh, not after you
get it pierced,

then it's the world's tongue.

You know that!I just thought you guys

were talking
about political stuff

like you usually do.It is political.

It's my body.

It's an important muscle.

You will have no taste buds.Stop being rude.

Oh, no, I just want
like world politics

'cause Lila and I were kind
of working on this song

for the Marshall Islands.

Oh, really?Yeah, um,

Ziggy did, like, the weirdest,
possibly nicest thing.

He took this poem I wrote
and set it to music.

Yeah, that's actually
why I came over here.

I played it last night
on Hi-Hat.

That's where I have
20,000 followers,

and I'm validated
and starred and everything.

You told us.Oh, really?

Mmm-hmm.Oh, lift.

Anyways, I don't really
sing about political shit,

'cause I feel like people
don't really like that stuff,

and also it doesn't
really translate

because of
the language barrier,

but I played
the Marshall Islands song

last night, right?
And I got, like, 83 up notes,

which translates
to, like, 90 bucks

before Hi-Hat deductions.CYRIL: Hmm.

And it's so funny,
'cause you, Lila,

you said that I had a huge
platform to be political.

And I never really wanted
to do that

because I thought it'd make me
less money,

but last night proves that
I can both be political

and make money.

Wow.Isn't that awesome?

Kyle!

Hello!

How are you, dear?Uh, I'm fine.

What's up, Evelyn?Oh, I had to speak to you...

Oh, forgive me.It's cool.

Is my mom okay?Oh, yes, Angie's fine.

Oh, actually, I don't know.

I really don't know...Wait, what happened?

I just spoke to her,

and she said that, um,
that you and she had discussed

what we had been
working on together,

and I wanted to get
some clarity on the situation.

Shit! Um...

I'm sorry about that.

What did she say?

Well, she said
that she was worried

that you wouldn't fit in
with the other students,

and that you wouldn't excel,

and both you and I know
that that could not be further

from the truth.

But I inferred
from what she said to me

that I may have overstepped,

and if I have,
I would be mortified.

Frankly, I would be mortified.

You know, she's just, well...

She's been
really emotional lately.

I told her not to talk to you.

Okay, okay, well,
I understand.

I mean, she's a good mother.
She's a very concerned mother,

and we've all been there,

and it's a big change.

I mean, not just for you,
but for your entire family.

Yeah, uh,
and what if I don't want it?

Don't want what?

School and all that.

Um, 'cause I don't think
that I really want to go.

I'm sorry, I know that you've
been thinking about it a lot

and that it's important
to you.

Just, uh, I talked to my dad

and, uh, we all think it's
a good idea

if I start working
with him more.

Ziggy, do not follow me.

Lila, just explain
to me what I did wrong?

Why are you so fucking stupid?

Maybe I am. I just,
I thought you'd be proud.

Oh, proud? Proud?
How could I be proud?

You exploited me.

You exploited
the fucking poor people

in the Marshall Islands

like they have any more
reason to be miserable,

and you exploited yourself.

How the fuck
did I exploit anyone?

I wrote this killer
fucking lift song with you.

We worked together,

and I used it
to raise awareness

for a major world problem.

And then you would have
the audacity to brag about it

to me
like you're a fucking god.

Changing the world
takes doing real work

and actually giving
a shit about real people.

You can't...But maybe

I can change things.You can't.

No, maybe we can, like a team.

We're not a team, Ziggy.
You're like a little boy.

I know that's scary.

We all have imposter syndrome.

I understand that.

I am constantly striving
to have my character

match up to my ideals...

Okay, okay, yeah.
No, I understand.

But it steels you,
it strengthens you.

It's the only way
to learn and to grow

and to live
a more examined life,

to make an impact.Not that...

Don't you want that?Yeah, I guess.

Yes, of course you do. Because
that is what everyone wants.

I know, I just can't really
think about it right now.

No, but right now is the time.

Right now is the time
that you have

to think about it.Evelyn, just please, stop!

Just, please,
please, just stop,

stop, please, stop!

Please!

I'm sorry. Oh, no, no.

You're not gonna, like,
kick us out, right?

What?

Like, if I don't
go to college,

you're not gonna
make us leave, right?

Oh, God. Oh, my God,
no, I mean,

oh, Kyle, these things are...

Okay.These things are separate.

These things are totally
separate. They're not...

All right, thank... Thank you.
Really, thank you, Ms. Katz.

'Cause my mom
really feels safe there.

Well, she is.

She is very safe there,

and you're both very safe.

Ah, fuck.

'Sup?

'Sup?

Hey, guys, RealZiggyKatz here.

Just want to say happy 4th!
Uh, 4th of July,

or as we call it in America,
Independence day,

whatever that means.

Um, so, right now I'm going
to play a song called

Mouth of a Liar.

Yo, yo, yo,
it's TheRealZiggyKatz here.

Just want to saydobry dzien

and happy Wednesday
to my friends in Minsk,

andni hao and happy Thursday
to my Tigers out in Liajing.

Xie xie for waking up
so early.

And, of course, dhonnobad to

all my devoted
Chittagong gals.

Glad to see the floods

haven't affected your
internet connections.

You all look super clear
and ready for a show.

Um, so the first song
I'm gonna play

is a brand new debut

for my favorite people
in the whole wide world,

my Hi-Hat fans.
