Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,560
But if this is the last time
2
00:01:51,110 --> 00:01:54,650
Make up your mind
3
00:01:55,940 --> 00:01:58,410
I've waited a lifetime to live
4
00:01:58,490 --> 00:02:01,200
Camera 3, give me Lizzy. Taking camera 3.
5
00:02:01,740 --> 00:02:04,330
Donny, I need a wide.
Get a wide camera. Wide shot.
6
00:02:04,410 --> 00:02:07,290
I'm making a fire
7
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,760
- Where should I put the coffee?
- Wait, where is Brett? Coff... What?
8
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,590
Chip said I should ask you
where to put it.
9
00:02:16,670 --> 00:02:21,180
I know a place we can start
10
00:02:23,140 --> 00:02:28,440
But if this is the last time
11
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,850
Make up your mind
12
00:02:30,940 --> 00:02:34,740
Congratulations on everything, Stella.
Getting Alex back was masterful.
13
00:02:34,741 --> 00:02:36,309
I've waited a lifetime to live
14
00:02:36,310 --> 00:02:38,700
- Ratings last night…
- Yes, hell of an interview.
15
00:02:38,780 --> 00:02:39,950
Thanks so much, Gerald.
16
00:02:40,030 --> 00:02:43,990
It's time to ignite
I'm making a fire
17
00:02:56,420 --> 00:02:59,260
- What... Go up there? Jesus. God.
- Go up and talk to Dave.
18
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:04,390
My gosh, you guys.
The Foo Fighters. You guys… What?
19
00:03:04,470 --> 00:03:06,060
I love you, Dave!
20
00:03:06,140 --> 00:03:08,180
- I know every single song.
- It's a new song.
21
00:03:08,270 --> 00:03:11,020
Nobody's really heard it yet.
Comes out summer 2020.
22
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:13,400
It was my daughter Violet's idea
to play it, actually.
23
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,190
Yeah. I said, you know,
Alex should get a world premiere.
24
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,150
- I love her. She's my favorite.
- She's cool.
25
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,450
I mean, I love you guys, too, but…
26
00:03:20,530 --> 00:03:23,700
All right, ladies and gentlemen,
the Foo Fighters. That was amazing.
27
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,620
We're out. Back in two minutes.
28
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:29,870
- You doing okay?
- Dave, I'm so good.
29
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,320
- Are you happy?
- Yeah.
30
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,419
- Yeah?
- I'm happy.
31
00:03:32,420 --> 00:03:34,330
- You seem happy.
- Thank you for doing this.
32
00:03:34,420 --> 00:03:36,000
- You guys are the best.
- Thank you.
33
00:03:36,090 --> 00:03:37,800
The number two trending story is
34
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,590
the president announcing
his budget proposal today,
35
00:03:40,670 --> 00:03:44,300
which is expected to include
steep cuts to Medicare and Medicaid
36
00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:46,720
and increase spending on a border wall.
37
00:03:46,810 --> 00:03:50,600
But the top trending topic
this morning is…
38
00:03:51,230 --> 00:03:52,230
It's Alex Levy.
39
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:55,650
- It's Alex Levy.
- Come on. Wow!
40
00:03:55,730 --> 00:03:57,610
- My gosh.
- I've arrived, guys.
41
00:03:57,690 --> 00:03:59,440
- Yes, you can quit now.
- No, no.
42
00:03:59,530 --> 00:04:01,860
- No, don't... don't quit.
- Wait.
43
00:04:01,950 --> 00:04:04,570
- She just got back.
- The people are saying,
44
00:04:04,660 --> 00:04:07,700
"Thank goodness Alex Levy's home.
Coffee doesn't taste right without her."
45
00:04:07,780 --> 00:04:10,870
- True. It did taste different today.
- That's very sweet.
46
00:04:10,950 --> 00:04:13,580
"OMG! So great to see Alex
and Bradley together.
47
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:16,250
Bradley without Alex is
like Rose without Jack."
48
00:04:16,330 --> 00:04:18,250
- Adorable.
- My gosh. Thank you.
49
00:04:18,340 --> 00:04:21,050
- Yeah.
- Twitter user @Crvcrab says,
50
00:04:21,130 --> 00:04:22,470
"Alex Levy, modern day hero."
51
00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:24,220
Yeah. "Hashtag feminist god."
52
00:04:24,930 --> 00:04:25,930
Okay, that's enough.
53
00:04:26,010 --> 00:04:28,100
I think we've heard enough of this.
Come on, Ty.
54
00:04:28,180 --> 00:04:30,520
Just keep hitting her
with those brutal tweets.
55
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,770
We're thrilled to have you back.
You're family here on The Morning Show.
56
00:04:34,690 --> 00:04:37,900
Yanko, just a heads-up.
Someone reposted your Groundhog Day thing.
57
00:04:37,980 --> 00:04:38,980
That's cool.
58
00:04:39,650 --> 00:04:42,360
Yeah, actually,
it's what I said the other day.
59
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:45,450
They don't like that you call
something your spirit animal,
60
00:04:45,530 --> 00:04:47,030
so that's why they reposted it.
61
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,950
- Please. Is it... Is that it?
- Yeah.
62
00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:50,040
Let me see that.
63
00:05:01,590 --> 00:05:03,050
Crap. Thanks.
64
00:05:03,630 --> 00:05:04,680
It's okay.
65
00:05:05,470 --> 00:05:07,890
Brava!
That's what I call a show, girlfriend.
66
00:05:07,970 --> 00:05:10,850
- L-E-V-Y, what does it spell?
- I love you.
67
00:05:10,930 --> 00:05:13,810
- Congrats. I'll see you upstairs.
- Thanks, honey.
68
00:05:13,890 --> 00:05:17,400
- Alex, great to have you back.
- Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
69
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,480
- Hey, good show.
- Thank... Thanks.
70
00:05:23,110 --> 00:05:26,700
- I think it went well.
- I gave Stella your best political stuff.
71
00:05:26,780 --> 00:05:29,990
So hopefully this will get us moderator.
72
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,660
Yeah, I hope so too.
73
00:05:31,740 --> 00:05:34,830
People still stop me on the street
about that de Blasio interview.
74
00:05:34,910 --> 00:05:39,460
- Are you going somewhere?
- Yeah. I have a meeting.
75
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:42,750
- You have a meeting?
- I booked it myself.
76
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:44,550
I'll call you in a couple hours.
77
00:05:45,970 --> 00:05:49,760
- We did it.
- You've done it, like, a million times.
78
00:05:49,850 --> 00:05:52,310
I know.
But, like, a million lifetimes ago.
79
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:55,630
Could you imagine if they paid me
all that money and I just sucked?
80
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,010
- Well, you didn't have to come back.
- I know, but I did.
81
00:06:00,110 --> 00:06:01,400
Is it good?
82
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:06,320
Gosh. Man.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
83
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,400
- Mom?
- Yeah?
84
00:06:07,490 --> 00:06:11,070
- You all right?
- Yeah, I'm good. I'm good.
85
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,410
Lizzy, you wanna go check out
the spread in the kitchen?
86
00:06:13,490 --> 00:06:15,500
- See if your mom wants some food?
- Yeah.
87
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,960
Okay. Okay.
88
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,050
- Okay. Sorry.
- Last night's interview played great.
89
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,300
I mean, yes, you were nervous.
90
00:06:28,380 --> 00:06:30,430
But it turned out great.
91
00:06:30,510 --> 00:06:32,140
- The ratings were great.
- Yeah.
92
00:06:32,220 --> 00:06:34,350
First show back, smashing success.
93
00:06:35,890 --> 00:06:37,730
- Relax.
- I hear you.
94
00:06:37,810 --> 00:06:40,520
Okay. I know, right? I need to relax.
95
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,610
Good.
Now, we do need to talk about the debate.
96
00:06:42,690 --> 00:06:45,360
The DNC needs their list of moderators,
and it's just...
97
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,990
We gotta book the travel
and hotels, Vegas, all that stuff.
98
00:06:48,070 --> 00:06:50,990
Yeah. Yeah. No. No.
99
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:53,990
The last thing I want right now
is more exposure.
100
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,200
Is there a part of you that feels
you should do it? As a show of good faith.
101
00:06:57,290 --> 00:06:58,580
No.
102
00:06:58,660 --> 00:07:01,920
You mentioned what a generous deal
they made for you,
103
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,340
and they obviously didn't do that
for nothing.
104
00:07:04,420 --> 00:07:06,840
They know you can bring home the bacon
and fry it up.
105
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,720
You'll bring 'em a huge audience.
106
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,300
It's win-win.
107
00:07:10,380 --> 00:07:11,800
I have to take it. It's Doug.
108
00:07:11,890 --> 00:07:12,970
Alex…
109
00:07:14,970 --> 00:07:15,970
you should do this.
110
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,180
- Should do this?
- Yeah.
111
00:07:19,270 --> 00:07:20,600
You know what you should do?
112
00:07:21,690 --> 00:07:24,820
Yeah. Right. Okay. Still... Still doing it.
113
00:07:26,020 --> 00:07:28,650
And you know that comes
with all the love in my heart.
114
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,570
Hey, Doug. Yes, I did.
I got all of your flowers.
115
00:07:38,250 --> 00:07:41,120
Okay, now, when you're doing
your interview, remember,
116
00:07:41,210 --> 00:07:44,130
law professors do not need to be ambushed.
117
00:07:44,210 --> 00:07:47,170
This is to establish
how Italian law sometimes has a...
118
00:07:47,250 --> 00:07:48,260
Yeah, yeah.
119
00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:51,880
By "yeah, yeah, yeah,"
do you just want me to shut up?
120
00:07:51,970 --> 00:07:54,640
- She wants me to shut up.
- I'm just trying to focus right now.
121
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,220
Okay. I get it.
122
00:07:56,310 --> 00:07:58,060
I get it. I totally get it.
123
00:07:59,890 --> 00:08:01,270
We could rehearse.
124
00:08:02,100 --> 00:08:03,810
I could play the professor.
125
00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:07,940
You could play Paola Lambruschini,
documentary filmmaker.
126
00:08:08,820 --> 00:08:12,740
Actually, Fido could play the professor.
127
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,280
- He's very professional.
- Yeah.
128
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,580
He's got one of those jackets with patches
on the elbows, the whole thing.
129
00:08:19,660 --> 00:08:21,290
Yeah? Wanna do that?
130
00:08:25,330 --> 00:08:26,670
You're gonna do great.
131
00:08:35,390 --> 00:08:37,550
I know it's early in the day
for the Donner Party,
132
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,310
but Plus sent over a cut
of the Forlorn Hope finale.
133
00:08:40,390 --> 00:08:42,680
- You want to watch it now?
- Yes. God, yes.
134
00:08:45,980 --> 00:08:47,060
You know…
135
00:08:48,690 --> 00:08:51,860
for someone in the closet,
you sure know your way around.
136
00:08:51,940 --> 00:08:54,990
I'm not in the closet.
I'm just not actually a lesbian.
137
00:08:56,450 --> 00:08:58,580
Well, you're something.
138
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:00,330
You're something.
139
00:09:03,410 --> 00:09:05,830
- I better go.
- You have to?
140
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,840
Yeah, I gotta go to Cory's office.
141
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,090
I'm gonna walk in there,
and I'm gonna tell him
142
00:09:11,170 --> 00:09:13,760
that I'm not fucking leaving
until he gives me moderator.
143
00:09:15,550 --> 00:09:17,510
- What?
- So sorry. I didn't mean to laugh.
144
00:09:17,590 --> 00:09:19,810
It just sounded funny, so combative.
145
00:09:19,890 --> 00:09:21,680
It's not combative. It's honest.
146
00:09:21,770 --> 00:09:25,890
Is that how you two communicate,
with unvarnished truths and ultimatums?
147
00:09:25,980 --> 00:09:28,480
I can tell you,
I've known Cory a long time,
148
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:30,690
and he wouldn't let just anyone do that.
149
00:09:30,770 --> 00:09:32,570
- It's complicated.
- I'd like to hear.
150
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,200
I guess…
151
00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:41,540
Okay, well,
on the day of Alex's last show...
152
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,290
Actually, it feels gross calling it that.
153
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,710
On the day Hannah died.
Did you know Hannah?
154
00:09:47,790 --> 00:09:51,590
- No, but I know who you mean.
- Well, so much happened that day.
155
00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:54,760
And after it all,
the board actually fired Cory.
156
00:09:55,670 --> 00:09:58,180
- Please don't tell anybody I said that.
- I won't.
157
00:09:58,260 --> 00:09:59,640
I mean, they never announced it.
158
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,520
They fired Cory, they put Fred on leave,
and they suspended me.
159
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,020
Alex took off.
160
00:10:06,060 --> 00:10:08,600
So Cory and I got really close.
161
00:10:08,690 --> 00:10:11,230
We really showed up for each other and…
162
00:10:12,650 --> 00:10:15,440
- Are you sure you want to hear this?
- Where's it going exactly?
163
00:10:16,030 --> 00:10:20,450
As friends, I was just…
My heart broke for him.
164
00:10:20,530 --> 00:10:23,950
- He was really vulnerable.
- Yeah, he doesn't lead with that.
165
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,870
No, but... But then a couple days later,
166
00:10:25,950 --> 00:10:30,040
I got up in front of the board,
and I just fucking unloaded on them.
167
00:10:30,130 --> 00:10:34,340
And I told them that Fred had to be fired,
and that Cory was the guy to replace him,
168
00:10:34,420 --> 00:10:37,340
and I really didn't think
I was getting through to them.
169
00:10:37,420 --> 00:10:40,300
But then a day later,
he came down to my room,
170
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:42,720
and he said that they made him CEO.
171
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,430
And as his first act,
he was lifting my suspension.
172
00:10:46,310 --> 00:10:49,690
At that point,
he and I were, like, best friends.
173
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:52,560
And I was a really good friend to him.
174
00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:56,490
Anyway, fuck him.
175
00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:03,490
You know they're talking about
replacing him, right?
176
00:11:03,580 --> 00:11:04,870
Wait, what?
177
00:11:04,950 --> 00:11:06,450
UBA is in third,
178
00:11:06,540 --> 00:11:10,420
which wouldn't be such a big deal
if it didn't go hand in hand with scandal.
179
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,340
I mean, it doesn't matter
that he's had success for them.
180
00:11:13,420 --> 00:11:14,670
People's memories are short,
181
00:11:14,750 --> 00:11:17,260
and at the end of the day,
it just comes down to money.
182
00:11:17,340 --> 00:11:20,840
And he's investing
just massive amounts in UBA+,
183
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:23,800
which doesn't launch for another month,
and it needs to perform.
184
00:11:23,890 --> 00:11:27,780
And, I mean, another streaming service?
185
00:11:27,781 --> 00:11:30,520
- They should be illegal.
- I guess you could just not subscribe.
186
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:31,600
At this point,
187
00:11:31,690 --> 00:11:37,400
UBA's balance sheet basically looks like
a hemophiliac's used Band-Aid.
188
00:11:38,110 --> 00:11:39,490
You should talk to him.
189
00:11:40,530 --> 00:11:43,280
That's what I'm gonna do.
That's how this conversation started.
190
00:11:43,870 --> 00:11:46,489
But you should reconcile with him,
even if it's just for show.
191
00:11:46,490 --> 00:11:48,280
The network is your partner.
192
00:11:48,660 --> 00:11:50,540
And he's your CEO for now.
193
00:11:51,330 --> 00:11:53,250
Make them your ally, not your foe.
194
00:11:54,290 --> 00:11:56,000
Your career will thank you.
195
00:12:12,350 --> 00:12:15,360
- Wow, you got a lot of stuff.
- I'm used to it.
196
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:20,240
- What will you do while I'm in it?
- What am I going to do?
197
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,280
Practice my singing…
198
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:24,570
…with some Italian music.
199
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,490
Ready?
200
00:12:26,580 --> 00:12:28,540
Uno, duo, tre, quatro!
201
00:12:28,620 --> 00:12:32,460
When I was a boy
Just about the eighth-a grade
202
00:12:32,540 --> 00:12:34,080
Mama used to say
203
00:12:34,170 --> 00:12:38,590
"Don't stay out-a late
With the bad-a boys
204
00:12:38,670 --> 00:12:41,510
Always shootin' pool, Giuseppe
You gonna flunk-a school!"
205
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:43,800
Idiota.
206
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,390
You talking to Giuseppe?
207
00:12:47,430 --> 00:12:48,510
You know, Giuseppe…
208
00:12:52,390 --> 00:12:54,390
I'm not really used to people helping me.
209
00:12:55,810 --> 00:12:56,810
So…
210
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,780
So thank you.
211
00:13:02,570 --> 00:13:03,570
Prego.
212
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,570
What's-a matter you?
213
00:13:06,660 --> 00:13:08,200
Hey! Gotta no respect?
214
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:09,280
Stop it.
215
00:13:09,370 --> 00:13:13,370
What-a you think you do?
Why you look-a so sad?
216
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:16,630
It's-a not so bad
It's-a nice-a place
217
00:13:16,710 --> 00:13:19,170
- Keep it down!
- Shaddap-a you face!
218
00:13:29,140 --> 00:13:30,810
Hey, Paige, is everything okay?
219
00:13:30,890 --> 00:13:35,270
No, everything is not okay.
Kelly Daykin just called me.
220
00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:37,100
I didn't know you two talked.
221
00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:38,650
It wasn't a good call.
222
00:13:38,730 --> 00:13:43,360
Someone tried to plant a nasty story
in the Daily News about Hannah Shoenfeld.
223
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,570
Did she say what it was?
224
00:13:46,660 --> 00:13:48,240
She spared me details.
225
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,620
Apparently it paints her
as pretty fucked up.
226
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:52,700
You said, "tried." "Tried to plant."
227
00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:55,080
- So, they're not printing it?
- They're not.
228
00:13:55,790 --> 00:13:57,210
Why did she call you?
229
00:13:57,290 --> 00:13:59,040
I think the implication is clear.
230
00:13:59,130 --> 00:14:02,000
My God, Paige,
you don't think I'm behind this?
231
00:14:02,090 --> 00:14:04,720
- Who do you think I am?
- The kids don't need this.
232
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,300
It was not me.
233
00:14:06,380 --> 00:14:08,640
That poor girl doesn't need this.
234
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,260
- Paige.
- I don't wanna hear it.
235
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:14,640
I did my duty.
I hope you're enjoying Italy.
236
00:14:26,740 --> 00:14:29,570
When he arrived, he was starving.
237
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:32,120
I'd seen that look so many times
these last five months.
238
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,240
It was horrible.
239
00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:35,370
So where is he, Mr. Keseberg?
240
00:14:35,450 --> 00:14:38,120
Where is my son?
We will dig up every last inch of dirt…
241
00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:40,040
Kyle, who's calling on my direct?
242
00:14:40,130 --> 00:14:42,790
- Please, Mr. Eddy.
- If I have...
243
00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:44,800
Kyle, who is it?
244
00:14:46,220 --> 00:14:48,510
I didn't know if I should yell this out.
245
00:14:49,430 --> 00:14:50,510
It's Mitch Kessler.
246
00:14:53,220 --> 00:14:57,520
Okay, I'll take it. Stay off this one.
247
00:15:10,450 --> 00:15:12,870
- Hello?
- Yeah?
248
00:15:13,740 --> 00:15:15,240
I didn't know you were there.
249
00:15:16,830 --> 00:15:18,210
Most people say, "Hello."
250
00:15:18,290 --> 00:15:19,830
Something new I'm trying out.
251
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,580
Groundbreaking stuff.
252
00:15:23,290 --> 00:15:26,260
I'm calling
because I thought you should know
253
00:15:26,340 --> 00:15:30,840
that someone has launched
a smear campaign against Hannah.
254
00:15:32,890 --> 00:15:33,890
Fred.
255
00:15:33,970 --> 00:15:37,640
Yeah. Daily News isn't gonna run it,
256
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,690
but his tentacles run so deep
that somebody's gonna bite eventually.
257
00:15:41,770 --> 00:15:43,150
Unless you cut it off at the root.
258
00:15:43,230 --> 00:15:46,480
Yeah? What you expect me to do, Mitch?
Kill and eat him to keep him quiet?
259
00:15:46,570 --> 00:15:49,440
What do I expect you to do?
The right thing.
260
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,620
Can you say that again?
It's amazing coming out of your mouth.
261
00:15:53,700 --> 00:15:55,410
Look, I'm just trying to help.
262
00:15:55,490 --> 00:15:58,290
You know, I don't have
the UBA apparatus at my disposal.
263
00:15:58,370 --> 00:16:00,330
And my money is not good
in that town anymore.
264
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,000
Why don't you take a big step back
and think about this?
265
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,000
This is your fault.
266
00:16:06,090 --> 00:16:08,130
You can try and pretend
like Fred's the bad guy,
267
00:16:08,210 --> 00:16:10,470
but there are no nasty stories
without you, pal.
268
00:16:10,550 --> 00:16:13,550
Well, you made
some pretty big fucking promises.
269
00:16:14,090 --> 00:16:17,350
Yeah? Fred, so bad he had to go.
270
00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:20,980
Or maybe you just wanted his job.
Well, congratulations.
271
00:16:21,060 --> 00:16:26,940
I'm glad that it is so easy for you to sit
in that big room full of straw,
272
00:16:27,020 --> 00:16:30,780
judging me, when you should be doing
what you promised and spin it into gold.
273
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,200
You're the CEO.
Do what a CEO does: handle it.
274
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,120
Handle the suit. Make it go away.
275
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,580
Keep these awful stories out of the press
276
00:16:38,660 --> 00:16:42,410
and leave me the fuck alone
so I can live my life.
277
00:16:42,500 --> 00:16:44,500
Whatever miserable scraps are left of it.
278
00:16:56,090 --> 00:16:57,260
Hey, I need a second.
279
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:58,350
Can it wait?
280
00:16:58,850 --> 00:17:01,860
It has waited two weeks
in quarantine in China and then some.
281
00:17:01,940 --> 00:17:04,280
What's another couple of hours?
I have to get to Stella's.
282
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:07,270
But that's why it can't wait.
Sooner you agree, sooner you're upstairs.
283
00:17:08,690 --> 00:17:09,690
Two minutes.
284
00:17:16,450 --> 00:17:19,080
Don't worry.
You're not the topic of conversation.
285
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,830
And why the fuck not?
286
00:17:20,910 --> 00:17:23,790
I want to be the topic of conversation
for once.
287
00:17:23,870 --> 00:17:26,080
I did a lot of thinking
trapped in that little box.
288
00:17:26,170 --> 00:17:28,660
My God, Daniel.
Beijing Hilton is not a little box.
289
00:17:28,661 --> 00:17:30,800
- We've talked...
- I'm not talking about the Hilton.
290
00:17:30,980 --> 00:17:32,180
I'm talking about my life.
291
00:17:32,260 --> 00:17:34,480
I don't have a 50-minute hour.
I have two minutes.
292
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,930
I'll make it quick
because I didn't come here for therapy.
293
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:38,890
Look.
294
00:17:38,970 --> 00:17:43,560
There is a pattern of behavior
around here that, to put it kindly,
295
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,480
often excuses the bad behavior
of white folks
296
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,520
and disadvantages the people of color,
namely me.
297
00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:50,610
And you know it too.
298
00:17:50,690 --> 00:17:53,900
I mean, at least George Wallace had
the courtesy to tell you to your face.
299
00:17:53,990 --> 00:17:56,200
I'm done turning the other cheek.
300
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:57,360
Okay, okay.
301
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,200
Of course I know it.
302
00:18:01,350 --> 00:18:03,600
Sure it's not lost on you
that I was only put in charge
303
00:18:03,601 --> 00:18:06,310
after everything had gone to shit
and failure was damn near certain.
304
00:18:06,390 --> 00:18:07,390
So I get it.
305
00:18:07,470 --> 00:18:11,210
But look, I am... I'm…
happier to have the job in this situation
306
00:18:11,300 --> 00:18:13,590
than to be shut out
in the name of fairness.
307
00:18:13,670 --> 00:18:17,180
And all I ask is that,
when you talk to Stella,
308
00:18:17,260 --> 00:18:19,090
you push for me to moderate.
309
00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:22,680
Okay. You're right.
I will plead your case.
310
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,020
Now I have to get up there.
311
00:18:26,230 --> 00:18:28,310
There should be some Black voice up there.
312
00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:31,190
And it's not gonna come
from one of the candidates.
313
00:18:31,820 --> 00:18:32,820
I'll do what I can.
314
00:18:37,740 --> 00:18:42,410
- You're not gonna fire me over this?
- No. Come on, Yanko, no. But…
315
00:18:44,660 --> 00:18:47,040
You know,
the backlash has gotten out of hand.
316
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:50,380
It's just one of those things.
We know you didn't mean anything by it.
317
00:18:50,460 --> 00:18:52,750
But we gotta nip
that thing in the bud, okay?
318
00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:56,090
So, you're gonna have to apologize
on the show tomorrow.
319
00:18:58,010 --> 00:18:59,430
So you want me to say I'm sorry.
320
00:18:59,510 --> 00:19:02,640
- Yeah. You gotta be.
- Okay, I still don't... I don't understand
321
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,850
why it's a bad thing for me
to call something my spirit animal, okay?
322
00:19:05,930 --> 00:19:08,350
And by the way,
a whole week went by, nobody cared.
323
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,180
Well, they care now, and we care.
324
00:19:11,260 --> 00:19:14,120
How am I supposed to feel sorry
for something that doesn't make sense?
325
00:19:14,210 --> 00:19:16,490
- I mean, it's not like I did a rain dance.
- My God.
326
00:19:16,570 --> 00:19:19,780
You know what? It's...
It's appropriation.
327
00:19:19,860 --> 00:19:21,070
You're not Native American.
328
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,700
It's like if someone who wasn't Cuban
was appropriating Cuban things.
329
00:19:24,790 --> 00:19:27,200
That doesn't bother me. I don't care.
Look, for the record,
330
00:19:27,290 --> 00:19:30,120
I have no problem apologizing
when I believe I've done something wrong,
331
00:19:30,210 --> 00:19:33,380
but you honestly want me to apologize
for something if I don't even mean it?
332
00:19:33,460 --> 00:19:35,170
In a perfect world,
333
00:19:35,250 --> 00:19:40,630
you understand that what you did is wrong,
you learn from it, and you apologize.
334
00:19:41,470 --> 00:19:42,470
Okay?
335
00:19:45,060 --> 00:19:46,060
It's fine.
336
00:19:50,140 --> 00:19:52,220
All right, fine. I'll do it. You know, I...
337
00:19:52,300 --> 00:19:54,780
- I don't push back like this, you know.
- No, I know. I know.
338
00:19:54,870 --> 00:19:58,490
Okay, and I'm sorry to be so combative,
but it hurts to be this misunderstood.
339
00:19:58,570 --> 00:20:00,820
Thanks for... Thanks for coming in.
340
00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:03,570
I don't even think the guy
who tweeted it was Native American.
341
00:20:03,660 --> 00:20:05,530
Okay. I'll see you downstairs.
342
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:10,620
- God.
- He means well.
343
00:20:13,630 --> 00:20:15,960
Look, can I bend your ear
about something else?
344
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,500
Bend away.
345
00:20:18,550 --> 00:20:22,300
What do you think
about Daniel moderating the debate?
346
00:20:22,380 --> 00:20:24,510
Everyone and their mother's
been lobbying for this,
347
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,380
like I have some sort of choice to make.
348
00:20:26,460 --> 00:20:27,930
We have to use Eric, obviously,
349
00:20:28,020 --> 00:20:30,640
and Cory's made it clear
that he wants it to be Alex.
350
00:20:31,190 --> 00:20:32,730
It should be Noorean, by the way.
351
00:20:32,810 --> 00:20:35,270
Best ratings on UBANC, warm and wonky.
352
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,980
But there can't be an equal number
of candidates and moderators.
353
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:39,820
I'm sorry.
There just isn't room for Daniel.
354
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:44,160
Daniel feels minimized on a grand scale,
you know, relegated to the breezy stuff.
355
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,620
- And it...
- It's The Twist.
356
00:20:45,700 --> 00:20:47,330
The breeze makes it twist.
357
00:20:47,410 --> 00:20:50,200
Right, but it's not just the breezy stuff.
358
00:20:50,290 --> 00:20:54,370
Daniel feels like he's only asked
to report on diverse stories,
359
00:20:54,460 --> 00:20:58,750
which, if we're being honest,
don't get as much airtime.
360
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,800
He thinks this is a racial thing?
361
00:21:01,670 --> 00:21:03,180
- A homophobic thing.
- You know what?
362
00:21:03,260 --> 00:21:06,390
I'm not gonna put words in his mouth,
but I'll give you my opinion.
363
00:21:06,470 --> 00:21:07,470
Okay.
364
00:21:07,550 --> 00:21:11,980
Daniel Henderson can moderate this debate
as well as anybody we have,
365
00:21:12,060 --> 00:21:14,520
and he's got
a really important perspective.
366
00:21:15,940 --> 00:21:19,320
Not everyone can be John or Paul.
Some people have to be Ringo.
367
00:21:21,150 --> 00:21:22,320
There's no shame in that.
368
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,870
In my opinion, Daniel's reached the level
of his charisma,
369
00:21:26,950 --> 00:21:29,580
which, to be clear,
is hosting the nine o'clock hour
370
00:21:29,660 --> 00:21:31,700
on a major television network.
371
00:21:32,620 --> 00:21:34,250
It's not exactly an insult.
372
00:21:34,330 --> 00:21:35,420
He's really good.
373
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,880
Everybody who's made it to this level
was the star somewhere else,
374
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,710
but in a universe full of stars,
I don't think he has the "it" factor.
375
00:21:45,550 --> 00:21:48,970
What's most important is that
it's unique to you.
376
00:21:49,050 --> 00:21:50,310
To who you are.
377
00:21:50,390 --> 00:21:51,390
TV's, like, 90 years old.
378
00:21:51,470 --> 00:21:54,230
The only thing you or anyone can do
that hasn't been done before
379
00:21:54,310 --> 00:21:56,520
- is offer their perspective.
- I agree.
380
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,230
I think people want to know who you are.
381
00:21:59,310 --> 00:22:01,020
Hey, great show today.
382
00:22:01,530 --> 00:22:04,110
- Thank you.
- Yes. Hell of a start?
383
00:22:04,190 --> 00:22:05,610
Yeah, amazing.
384
00:22:06,490 --> 00:22:08,280
- Listen…
- Yes?
385
00:22:08,370 --> 00:22:09,530
About this debate…
386
00:22:09,620 --> 00:22:11,580
I hear you don't want to do it.
387
00:22:11,660 --> 00:22:14,870
But can I just tell you
why we think it's so important?
388
00:22:15,790 --> 00:22:16,830
You... Yes.
389
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,580
It's not about drawing viewers,
390
00:22:18,670 --> 00:22:21,710
because all eyes will already be
on UBA that night,
391
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,550
but with all of our recent troubles,
392
00:22:23,630 --> 00:22:27,430
it's imperative to show that we can
still deliver good quality content.
393
00:22:28,590 --> 00:22:33,770
And nothing says quality more than you,
Alex, and you'll kill it.
394
00:22:33,850 --> 00:22:36,140
And you'll get a ton of juice off of it.
395
00:22:37,690 --> 00:22:38,810
You think I need juice?
396
00:22:38,900 --> 00:22:41,520
I'm not particularly saying
you need juice,
397
00:22:41,610 --> 00:22:43,730
but, you know,
who doesn't need some juice?
398
00:22:45,820 --> 00:22:48,530
I think there are other people here
with a lot more to prove.
399
00:22:49,110 --> 00:22:51,870
- We very much appreciate the ask.
- Yeah, but no.
400
00:22:51,950 --> 00:22:52,950
Okay.
401
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,250
I hear you.
402
00:22:56,410 --> 00:22:59,500
But just think about it, for me.
That's all I ask.
403
00:23:01,500 --> 00:23:03,630
Gonna let you guys get back to it.
404
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:11,760
Wow.
405
00:23:12,430 --> 00:23:16,350
I mean, who is that punk that
second-guesses every single thing I say?
406
00:23:17,940 --> 00:23:21,310
- God.
- Well, she's the president of UBA News.
407
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,860
Cory clearly thinks a lot of her,
408
00:23:22,940 --> 00:23:26,440
because he paid a lot for DADA Media
to absorb it and her into the network...
409
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,110
Don't talk to me like I'm an idiot.
410
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,220
I mean, seriously,
where the fuck does she get off?
411
00:23:30,310 --> 00:23:32,780
I'm supposed to listen to her?
I have sweaters older than her.
412
00:23:32,870 --> 00:23:34,700
Well, age and maturity aren't
the same thing.
413
00:23:34,790 --> 00:23:36,160
Chip, that's not what I'm saying.
414
00:23:36,250 --> 00:23:38,750
She just hasn't...
She hasn't gone through enough shit.
415
00:23:38,830 --> 00:23:40,420
You know, she hasn't had enough pain
416
00:23:40,500 --> 00:23:43,250
to be bossing all of us around
who have been through it.
417
00:23:43,340 --> 00:23:44,840
You know, she just... I don't know.
418
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,220
She's got this attitude about her
like she's this arbiter of morality.
419
00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:50,510
Okay, I think
you might be rushing to judgment.
420
00:23:50,590 --> 00:23:53,760
She thought bringing you back here
was a crazy idea, which is bullshit.
421
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,430
- She thinks I shouldn't be here?
- No, you should be here.
422
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,560
You're missing the point.
She just doesn't get it.
423
00:24:01,650 --> 00:24:03,020
Who else thinks that?
424
00:24:04,020 --> 00:24:05,520
Nobody. Okay, never mind.
425
00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:08,820
Chip, just forget that I said it.
Please don't give it another thought.
426
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,120
I was just trying to make a point
you weren't hearing fast enough.
427
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,370
It looks good.
428
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,410
He looks very credible.
429
00:24:19,500 --> 00:24:22,460
Okay, I will translate.
430
00:24:24,630 --> 00:24:30,470
Okay, so, here he's saying
that the criminal justice system in Italy
431
00:24:30,550 --> 00:24:33,800
was not written with women in mind.
432
00:24:33,890 --> 00:24:36,350
Of course. So, I ask him
433
00:24:36,430 --> 00:24:39,520
if there were any noteworthy examples
434
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,140
of men and women
being treated differently.
435
00:24:42,230 --> 00:24:45,360
And he says, yes, of course,
there are many examples.
436
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:46,440
And so…
437
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,570
I'm bringing up Amanda Knox.
438
00:24:52,070 --> 00:24:55,120
And that just got him talking
and talking and talking.
439
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,780
And, you know,
there is a lot of good stuff here.
440
00:24:58,450 --> 00:25:00,000
Yeah, that was really smart.
441
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,460
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It was.
442
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:10,300
Okay, keep watching,
and the food will be ready soon.
443
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,760
Here are the noodles.
444
00:25:16,010 --> 00:25:18,510
Here's the sauce. Enjoy.
445
00:25:19,060 --> 00:25:21,140
That's it? Really?
446
00:25:21,230 --> 00:25:23,100
- Well…
- That's where the service stops.
447
00:25:23,190 --> 00:25:26,810
Wow, you're two inches
from the finish line,
448
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:28,320
and you're not gonna serve me.
449
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,570
- Well, I made the food.
- Okay.
450
00:25:30,650 --> 00:25:31,900
That's as grateful as I get.
451
00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:36,070
Well, I am never coming back
to this establishment.
452
00:25:36,700 --> 00:25:38,700
The service is terrible.
453
00:25:38,780 --> 00:25:42,080
And you took...
Look at how much you took.
454
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,210
- You left very little.
- Come here.
455
00:25:44,290 --> 00:25:45,710
- Don't do that.
- You're so...
456
00:25:49,460 --> 00:25:51,460
Here. The fork is in the drawer.
457
00:26:00,140 --> 00:26:05,140
Our campaign is thinking big
and not small.
458
00:26:05,230 --> 00:26:08,230
So we'll see you tomorrow.
Great job today. Thank you.
459
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:13,490
Did you talk to Stella?
460
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,200
I did. It's not in the cards this time.
461
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,030
We've got the Phoenix debate next month.
462
00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:23,910
- If I were you, I would focus on...
- She said no? Did she say why?
463
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:25,910
Okay, well…
464
00:26:27,540 --> 00:26:30,380
She loves you,
but the network is looking to showcase
465
00:26:30,460 --> 00:26:32,550
some other talents
at this particular moment.
466
00:26:32,630 --> 00:26:35,170
Okay, are they going
with a different Black journalist?
467
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,300
A different gay journalist?
468
00:26:37,380 --> 00:26:39,140
- Hey. Good night.
- Good night.
469
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,560
I actually don't think
it's what you're thinking.
470
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,100
Okay. So then what is it, then?
471
00:26:46,190 --> 00:26:48,690
Stella doesn't think you have enough
of the "it" factor.
472
00:26:49,310 --> 00:26:52,650
- Enough of the "it" factor?
- I probably shouldn't be telling you this,
473
00:26:52,730 --> 00:26:57,910
but I think that Stella would prefer
you think that she's blind to your charms
474
00:26:57,990 --> 00:26:59,240
than she's a bigot.
475
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,450
A person could be blind to my charms
because they are a bigot.
476
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,120
How'd you respond?
477
00:27:06,410 --> 00:27:08,710
She knows I think she's being ridiculous.
478
00:27:11,460 --> 00:27:13,380
Listen, Earl, don't overcomplicate this.
479
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,050
All I need you to do is find out
what stories Fred's trying to plant,
480
00:27:17,130 --> 00:27:19,930
where he's planting them, how he's
doing it, and if we can stop them.
481
00:27:20,010 --> 00:27:22,760
But nothing extrajudicial.
482
00:27:22,850 --> 00:27:24,970
Yeah, okay. I'll get back to you.
483
00:27:51,120 --> 00:27:52,130
Bradley.
484
00:27:52,210 --> 00:27:54,620
If it isn't the pride of West Virginia
and the 15th floor.
485
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:56,090
I don't know who's moderating.
486
00:27:56,170 --> 00:27:58,720
I don't mean to sound full of myself,
but that's beneath me now.
487
00:27:58,810 --> 00:28:00,010
This isn't about that.
488
00:28:00,090 --> 00:28:01,930
- Can I come in?
- Yeah, sure.
489
00:28:07,220 --> 00:28:08,230
Can I get you a drink?
490
00:28:08,310 --> 00:28:10,480
No, I just wanna talk for a minute.
491
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:12,400
Something wrong?
492
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:13,480
No, no.
493
00:28:16,150 --> 00:28:17,320
Are you gonna sit down?
494
00:28:19,070 --> 00:28:20,110
Okay.
495
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:31,080
Look, I know
that our friendship has suffered
496
00:28:31,170 --> 00:28:33,920
over the last little bit
with everything that's happened,
497
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,590
and I... I'm not okay with that.
498
00:28:38,420 --> 00:28:40,550
And I hope
that you're not okay with that either.
499
00:28:41,130 --> 00:28:43,300
No. No, I'm not.
500
00:28:43,390 --> 00:28:46,470
But, hey,
let's consider the slate wiped clean.
501
00:28:48,390 --> 00:28:50,600
- That's it?
- That's it. It was that simple.
502
00:28:51,100 --> 00:28:53,980
Well, I don't want you to say
that the slate is wiped clean
503
00:28:54,060 --> 00:28:55,480
if the slate is not wiped clean,
504
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,110
because it sounds a little bit
like you're trying to shut me up.
505
00:28:58,190 --> 00:29:00,940
Bradley, I don't know
who's moderating the fucking debate.
506
00:29:01,030 --> 00:29:02,440
This is not about the debate, Cory.
507
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,270
If you're not gonna treat me like the CEO
when you're furious at me,
508
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,640
please don't treat me like a CEO
when you try to make up.
509
00:29:07,730 --> 00:29:10,750
Okay, fine.
I was pissed at you at New Year's Eve.
510
00:29:10,830 --> 00:29:13,420
And I've been a little bit aggressive
and abrasive towards you
511
00:29:13,500 --> 00:29:14,500
for the past six weeks.
512
00:29:14,580 --> 00:29:16,960
And I... I wanna apologize.
513
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,250
And just because I'm abrasive
514
00:29:19,340 --> 00:29:22,010
doesn't mean that I don't care about
our fucking friendship.
515
00:29:25,590 --> 00:29:28,680
All right, that wasn't any good.
I... Let me just try that again.
516
00:29:29,890 --> 00:29:32,600
And don't look at me like that
when I'm trying to do this.
517
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,150
I was not thrilled with you
for the past month and a half.
518
00:29:37,940 --> 00:29:42,490
But I have come to realize that
I haven't been entirely fair about it.
519
00:29:42,570 --> 00:29:43,780
Okay.
520
00:29:43,860 --> 00:29:48,120
And I know that you're the CEO
and that my needs aren't always…
521
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,230
that you can't have a direct line
to all my needs and concerns,
522
00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:54,870
- 'cause you're juggling a lot.
- I have been pretty good to you.
523
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,880
But I did have a reason to be angry.
I hope that's not what you're saying.
524
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,800
- I am not saying that. Absolutely.
- Can we just get the fuck over this, Cory?
525
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,340
Honestly.
526
00:30:09,390 --> 00:30:12,140
Love is never being able to say
you're sorry.
527
00:30:12,220 --> 00:30:13,230
I'm sorry.
528
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:16,900
I'm sorry.
529
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:20,570
I really am sorry.
530
00:30:21,190 --> 00:30:23,690
Fuck.
531
00:30:28,530 --> 00:30:33,250
This is it. This is just all part
of the Bradley Jackson ride, isn't it?
532
00:30:33,750 --> 00:30:35,460
You know I'm never gonna be your enemy.
533
00:30:35,540 --> 00:30:38,460
I'm never going to let that happen.
I only want what's best for you.
534
00:30:38,540 --> 00:30:41,700
And for some inscrutable reason,
you won't just trust that that's true.
535
00:30:41,780 --> 00:30:44,340
I'm not saying I didn't do anything wrong.
I did, and I'm sorry.
536
00:30:44,420 --> 00:30:46,880
But I needed you to understand
that I had my reasons.
537
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:49,930
And if you have an issue
with me or with anybody in the future,
538
00:30:50,010 --> 00:30:53,270
if you could just try to see your way
to not assume the worst from me.
539
00:30:53,350 --> 00:30:56,550
To not channel whatever it is
that you're feeling through that
540
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,830
beautiful little anger prism that lives
in your heart and makes you so exciting,
541
00:30:59,910 --> 00:31:02,020
and know that I am there
to help you solve,
542
00:31:02,110 --> 00:31:04,900
or at least help you get through
any problems.
543
00:31:07,530 --> 00:31:09,280
I'm on your side.
544
00:31:10,410 --> 00:31:11,410
Always.
545
00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:17,710
Besides, I'm too old to have enemies.
546
00:31:17,790 --> 00:31:21,340
It's weird when you're 51 years old
and you got enemies. So…
547
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:23,960
Anger wasn't really what I was feeling.
548
00:31:25,210 --> 00:31:27,420
Anger is just what I know what to do with.
549
00:31:28,050 --> 00:31:29,050
But hurt…
550
00:31:32,010 --> 00:31:33,810
And you didn't even do anything,
specifically,
551
00:31:33,890 --> 00:31:35,600
it just hurt because it was you.
552
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,330
As far as moderator goes...
553
00:31:58,410 --> 00:32:00,370
- Gosh, don't...
- No, I love that you want it.
554
00:32:00,460 --> 00:32:02,750
But a lot of people want it,
and Alex just came back.
555
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,380
She made a splashy return,
so that's probably gonna happen.
556
00:32:05,460 --> 00:32:07,800
And I don't see
using two straight white women.
557
00:32:10,090 --> 00:32:11,640
Thank you for telling me.
558
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,350
And I really... I really appreciate
everything you just said.
559
00:32:21,100 --> 00:32:22,480
Well, you know where I live.
560
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:28,530
I do.
561
00:32:38,620 --> 00:32:39,960
- Did you call?
- No, I didn't.
562
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,750
I was excited to tell you what happened.
And you said you weren't doing anything.
563
00:32:43,830 --> 00:32:46,960
Well, then it's a good thing
I was telling the truth.
564
00:32:47,050 --> 00:32:49,300
- Drink?
- No, I'm good.
565
00:32:50,010 --> 00:32:51,880
But I wanted to tell you
I took your advice,
566
00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:53,090
and it went really well.
567
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:56,350
It did? You're getting the debate?
568
00:32:56,430 --> 00:33:00,060
No, but we made up.
Like, we actually made up.
569
00:33:00,730 --> 00:33:02,900
- Well, that's good.
- Yeah, it's good.
570
00:33:02,980 --> 00:33:05,190
And we didn't even really talk
about the debate.
571
00:33:05,270 --> 00:33:08,230
He... You know,
he knew I was there to work him,
572
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,690
but he didn't really
rake me over the coals about it.
573
00:33:10,780 --> 00:33:13,450
And he offered a little context,
but I didn't pursue it
574
00:33:13,530 --> 00:33:15,740
because I didn't want to ruin
everything with work.
575
00:33:15,820 --> 00:33:17,080
But I get it.
576
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:21,620
There's a lot of factors at play,
you know, business stuff, optics stuff,
577
00:33:21,710 --> 00:33:25,250
and it make sense
that Alex is gonna do it.
578
00:33:25,330 --> 00:33:28,130
You know, you can't trot out
two straight white women,
579
00:33:28,210 --> 00:33:30,130
especially if Bloomberg is gonna be
up there.
580
00:33:30,210 --> 00:33:34,010
You're going to really need diversity
to ask about stop and frisk.
581
00:33:35,220 --> 00:33:37,300
Bradley,
you just called yourself straight.
582
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,520
Yeah, that's because
to most of the world, I am.
583
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,350
And why is that exactly?
584
00:33:46,150 --> 00:33:48,110
Because most of the time I'm straight.
585
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,070
Isn't it sort of antiquated
to try and nail this thing down so firmly?
586
00:33:53,150 --> 00:33:56,110
Isn't sexually fluid a thing?
587
00:33:56,700 --> 00:33:58,240
Is that what you're saying you are?
588
00:33:59,030 --> 00:34:01,040
No, I'm not saying I'm anything.
589
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,210
I don't define every single thing I do.
I'm a sexual person.
590
00:34:04,290 --> 00:34:08,000
I once had a three-way with two men.
Does that make me a...
591
00:34:08,090 --> 00:34:09,170
A slut?
592
00:34:11,630 --> 00:34:12,920
This is not funny.
593
00:34:13,010 --> 00:34:16,880
Well… it's not funny to me, either.
594
00:34:16,970 --> 00:34:18,640
Then why are you laughing?
595
00:34:18,720 --> 00:34:21,680
Because I am amazed that you have it
so easy and you make it so hard.
596
00:34:21,770 --> 00:34:23,270
I have it easy?
597
00:34:23,350 --> 00:34:25,640
What am I supposed to do,
go into Stella's office and say,
598
00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:29,690
"I'm a gay bisexual type.
I want the debate. Now."
599
00:34:29,770 --> 00:34:31,110
We're talking about a situation
600
00:34:31,190 --> 00:34:34,110
where you being different
can work to your advantage now.
601
00:34:34,900 --> 00:34:37,360
I kept my private life to myself
because I had to.
602
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,990
It was 1997, and it was painful.
603
00:34:41,910 --> 00:34:43,700
And it sucked.
604
00:34:43,790 --> 00:34:48,040
But I slowly, quietly tried to live a life
that was more truthful.
605
00:34:48,130 --> 00:34:50,380
Not with the world,
but with my inner circle.
606
00:34:51,130 --> 00:34:52,630
But people talk.
607
00:34:52,710 --> 00:34:56,220
They're fascinated by who's gay
and who's not for some fucking reason.
608
00:34:56,300 --> 00:34:59,090
Next thing I know,
YDA is handing me my walking papers.
609
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,600
- They fired you?
- Of course they did.
610
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,680
Why would I have quit that job
at that point in my career?
611
00:35:06,770 --> 00:35:10,900
I mean, it wasn't explicit.
They didn't literally hand me a pink slip.
612
00:35:12,020 --> 00:35:16,360
But when you're not wanted,
people find a way of letting you know.
613
00:35:17,490 --> 00:35:19,240
And, I don't know,
614
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,870
I have to tell you
there is something inside me
615
00:35:22,950 --> 00:35:26,910
that wants to resent you
for not being grateful for this.
616
00:35:27,870 --> 00:35:30,710
I see someone
who is walking the same path,
617
00:35:30,790 --> 00:35:34,250
honestly, a path I helped lay.
618
00:35:34,340 --> 00:35:39,430
And it's a little annoying,
and I'm envious. That's it.
619
00:35:40,970 --> 00:35:43,930
I lost a job for being gay.
You should embrace it.
620
00:35:44,770 --> 00:35:46,890
I mean, it's not like you would be lying.
621
00:35:48,100 --> 00:35:51,940
I'm just not interested
in using my identity like that.
622
00:35:52,020 --> 00:35:53,190
I'm just not.
623
00:35:53,270 --> 00:35:56,440
You're not interested
in it... it being your identity.
624
00:35:57,530 --> 00:35:59,320
But you don't seem to mind…
625
00:35:59,820 --> 00:36:02,530
identifying yourself as a Southerner.
626
00:36:03,700 --> 00:36:04,950
What do you mean by that?
627
00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:07,910
I think you grew up
in a part of the country
628
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,960
that didn't accept people like me
and possibly you.
629
00:36:11,630 --> 00:36:16,000
And I think that you are repressed,
if you want my honest opinion.
630
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,300
You know, this was a mistake.
631
00:36:20,220 --> 00:36:21,220
Okay.
632
00:36:22,050 --> 00:36:24,710
- Go live in your delusional world...
- I'm not delusional, Laura.
633
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,950
And I'm not a country bumpkin,
and I'm not fucking repressed.
634
00:36:36,530 --> 00:36:39,280
- You're gonna have to pay for that.
- Well, you better start a tab.
635
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,310
'Cause I'm gonna be breaking a lot
of shit around here. I'm not repressed.
636
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,690
I guess you'll have to find
some other woman's vases to break then.
637
00:36:46,910 --> 00:36:48,080
Fine. I'll start now.
638
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:12,690
How you feeling?
639
00:37:12,770 --> 00:37:15,980
Like I'm about to eat shit
for reasons I don't understand.
640
00:37:16,060 --> 00:37:17,070
And you?
641
00:37:17,820 --> 00:37:20,490
Like I'm always eating shit
for reasons I don't understand.
642
00:37:20,570 --> 00:37:22,530
At least you're not being accused
of being racist.
643
00:37:22,610 --> 00:37:25,280
I mean, I don't think I've used
that phrase, "spirit animal,"
644
00:37:25,370 --> 00:37:26,490
before, like, a week ago.
645
00:37:26,580 --> 00:37:28,640
I thought that was just
something people said.
646
00:37:28,730 --> 00:37:30,620
People are so caught up
in their own nonsense.
647
00:37:30,700 --> 00:37:32,460
It takes up so much space in their head.
648
00:37:32,540 --> 00:37:35,460
There's no room for anyone else
unless they put 'em in these little boxes.
649
00:37:35,540 --> 00:37:39,590
I get it. But what I don't understand is
how'd they decide which box I belonged in?
650
00:37:39,670 --> 00:37:42,260
That's the thing that's tying my brain
in this Gordian knot.
651
00:37:42,340 --> 00:37:45,260
Like, how did I become Daniel,
the guy without the "it" factor?
652
00:37:46,510 --> 00:37:48,390
Back in 30 seconds, people.
653
00:37:49,060 --> 00:37:50,220
Well, I wish I could help,
654
00:37:50,310 --> 00:37:53,810
but just about that time for Yanko,
the racially insensitive Cuban weatherman,
655
00:37:53,890 --> 00:37:54,980
to eat that shit.
656
00:38:02,650 --> 00:38:04,030
Stand by, 1.
657
00:38:04,110 --> 00:38:05,570
Take it, 1.
658
00:38:05,660 --> 00:38:07,870
Vermont senator Bernie Sanders…
659
00:38:07,950 --> 00:38:11,500
Mia, I have no clue why he called me,
660
00:38:11,580 --> 00:38:14,920
but Bernadette Peters's agent just told me
she's not gonna make it in time.
661
00:38:16,330 --> 00:38:17,790
So much for special surprises.
662
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,750
Okay, let's just get a surprise at least.
663
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,720
Talk to Matt. Try to wrangle somebody
who's already in the building.
664
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,550
- He'll know who's here this early. Hurry.
- Got it. Got it. Okay.
665
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,430
What happened to COVID-18?
666
00:38:28,510 --> 00:38:33,730
Hey, so Bullard is pre-taping
right now upstairs with Stern.
667
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,150
- Shit. Yes. Brilliant. Yeah.
- Okay. Yeah. It's on 8.
668
00:38:37,230 --> 00:38:38,770
- Thank you.
- Okay.
669
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:40,720
- What you doing?
- Vermont senator…
670
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,030
I was telling her Bullard's doing
a pre-tape with Stern.
671
00:38:43,110 --> 00:38:44,840
Howard was talking about it last week, so…
672
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,950
Don't undermine me with my staff.
673
00:38:47,030 --> 00:38:50,160
- …coverage tonight on UBA Evening News.
- I was trying to help.
674
00:38:50,240 --> 00:38:52,120
Then don't fucking undermine my authority.
675
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,540
Do you not want me here?
676
00:38:53,620 --> 00:38:58,500
…illness caused by the novel coronavirus
that's making its way across the globe.
677
00:38:58,580 --> 00:39:00,710
COVID-19 is what they're calling it.
678
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,050
And that's your update for today
in the eight o'clock hour.
679
00:39:05,130 --> 00:39:06,130
Everything okay?
680
00:39:06,220 --> 00:39:08,910
…135 people quarantined
on the Diamond Princess.
681
00:39:08,990 --> 00:39:10,000
Hunky dory.
682
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,930
- Not the vacation people had in mind…
- Just need a new special guest.
683
00:39:13,020 --> 00:39:14,100
Absolutely not. No.
684
00:39:14,180 --> 00:39:16,690
Before we move on,
you wanted to say something, Yanko?
685
00:39:16,770 --> 00:39:21,570
Yes, I do. I do.
So, back on Groundhog Day
686
00:39:21,650 --> 00:39:25,070
I flippantly used
the term "spirit animal"
687
00:39:25,150 --> 00:39:28,910
to describe how I felt
about Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog.
688
00:39:28,990 --> 00:39:33,040
And since then,
it's been brought to my attention that,
689
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,120
as somebody
without any Native American heritage,
690
00:39:36,210 --> 00:39:38,000
that for me to use that term,
691
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,490
that it might be considered insensitive,
692
00:39:40,580 --> 00:39:43,080
- as it misappropriates…
- Of course he said "might be." Fuck.
693
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,880
…what many Native Americans,
hold to be sacred,
694
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,510
culturally and spiritually.
695
00:39:47,590 --> 00:39:51,260
Those who know me best,
which I hope includes our regular viewers,
696
00:39:51,350 --> 00:39:53,430
know that I...
I'd never say something that...
697
00:39:53,510 --> 00:39:56,430
to intentionally
make light of another culture,
698
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,190
and it pains me to know that…
699
00:39:58,270 --> 00:40:00,780
- That's not gonna make #YankYanko go away.
- …some of you…
700
00:40:00,860 --> 00:40:02,610
You're done going easy on your weatherman.
701
00:40:02,690 --> 00:40:05,280
- And for that I sincerely apologize.
- I'm using your office.
702
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,450
And I will continue to try to learn
and do better.
703
00:40:11,420 --> 00:40:13,030
- Hey. Good morning, Cory.
- All right.
704
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:14,990
So where do we stand
on the moderators?
705
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,160
- This has to get done today.
- Eric's a go.
706
00:40:17,250 --> 00:40:19,920
So is Deena Pham from the Alt Weekly
for the local angle.
707
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,170
- And?
- I'm leading with what I know.
708
00:40:22,250 --> 00:40:24,100
If you're asking about Alex,
she won't do it.
709
00:40:24,670 --> 00:40:27,170
I mean, I'll say it again, Noorean.
710
00:40:27,260 --> 00:40:31,550
But if that doesn't do it for you,
there's Daniel, Roger, Bradley.
711
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,970
They've all made it clear
that they'd kill for it.
712
00:40:34,970 --> 00:40:37,310
Jesus. God.
713
00:40:37,390 --> 00:40:41,810
All I am trying to do is
get us to mid-March in one fucking piece
714
00:40:41,900 --> 00:40:44,690
so we can launch this streaming service,
which the world is mad about,
715
00:40:44,770 --> 00:40:47,650
like we're gonna force-feed them
content to make human foie gras.
716
00:40:47,730 --> 00:40:51,320
So if I can't count on you to do this,
why did I give you the job?
717
00:40:51,410 --> 00:40:56,290
You didn't have to sell us your company.
You chose this shit. This is the job.
718
00:40:56,370 --> 00:40:59,290
You know, I've been wondering
the same thing myself.
719
00:40:59,370 --> 00:41:01,080
Why did you bring me on?
720
00:41:01,170 --> 00:41:03,750
What was the point if you weren't gonna
listen to anything I say?
721
00:41:03,830 --> 00:41:05,420
So you can parade an Asian woman around
722
00:41:05,500 --> 00:41:08,550
and get the social capital
from pretending you cared?
723
00:41:08,630 --> 00:41:10,670
Don't just pay lip service
to empowering me.
724
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,720
Either really do it or let me walk.
725
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,220
Alex was never my choice for anything.
If that's who you want, do it yourself.
726
00:41:16,310 --> 00:41:19,640
You are underestimating me,
and you're underestimating Alex.
727
00:41:19,730 --> 00:41:23,100
So cut that shit. Talent is talent.
728
00:41:23,190 --> 00:41:26,360
And understanding that is
an executive's only talent.
729
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,530
Generational talents
on multi-year contracts
730
00:41:28,610 --> 00:41:31,860
who happen to meet your
exacting standards, good fucking luck.
731
00:41:31,950 --> 00:41:36,200
So make this work now or don't.
732
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:37,830
And see who you're spiting.
733
00:41:37,910 --> 00:41:41,710
Got it. Everything done the same
by a young, Asian woman equals different.
734
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,840
Shit.
735
00:41:56,350 --> 00:41:57,350
What?
736
00:42:06,810 --> 00:42:08,770
- Yeah?
- It's Earl.
737
00:42:08,860 --> 00:42:09,860
Well, that was quick.
738
00:42:09,940 --> 00:42:13,820
Didn't take long to see the genie wasn't
going back in to retract the stories.
739
00:42:13,900 --> 00:42:16,910
Just too many blogs,
sites, papers, whatever.
740
00:42:16,990 --> 00:42:19,200
It won't be the Times,
but someone will publish.
741
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,580
People are rotten.
It's why I have a business.
742
00:42:21,660 --> 00:42:24,620
Only thing I can see doing,
the extrajudicial being off the table,
743
00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:25,750
is go directly to Fred,
744
00:42:25,830 --> 00:42:27,630
which you didn't want me to do, correct?
745
00:42:27,710 --> 00:42:29,500
Yeah. Thanks.
746
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,260
I'm looking forward to The Twist.
747
00:42:52,110 --> 00:42:53,110
- Hey, you.
- Hey.
748
00:42:53,190 --> 00:42:54,780
- How you doing?
- Good. Good.
749
00:42:54,860 --> 00:42:56,820
- How are you?
- Good, good.
750
00:42:56,910 --> 00:42:58,950
- Just getting through the show.
- Yeah.
751
00:42:59,030 --> 00:43:01,660
With a lot of "Welcome back, Alex"
over the top, but…
752
00:43:02,870 --> 00:43:06,210
It's gotta be a lot.
And then the debate prep is… That's...
753
00:43:06,290 --> 00:43:08,710
Yeah. No, I'm...
I'm not doing the debate.
754
00:43:09,330 --> 00:43:12,020
- What do you mean? You turned it down?
- I'm not doing it. I did.
755
00:43:12,100 --> 00:43:15,510
And listen, if you want to do it,
756
00:43:15,590 --> 00:43:19,680
I would throw yourself at it right now
because she's like a dog with a bone. Sh...
757
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,510
Alex, you're up in a minute.
758
00:43:22,220 --> 00:43:23,770
- To be continued.
- Okay.
759
00:43:28,150 --> 00:43:30,650
Gayle. Yeah, is Stella still here?
760
00:43:30,730 --> 00:43:32,150
I saw her a minute ago.
761
00:43:32,230 --> 00:43:34,940
- How much longer do I have?
- About six minutes. Why?
762
00:43:35,030 --> 00:43:36,110
I'll be right back.
763
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,530
Okay, we're back in seven seconds.
764
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,870
What's the pianist doing?
Bernadette's not here. We killed the song.
765
00:43:42,950 --> 00:43:43,990
Camera 2.
766
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,420
And we are so happy to have Alex back,
767
00:43:48,500 --> 00:43:52,460
as you can tell from all the great guests
we've had already this week.
768
00:43:52,540 --> 00:43:54,630
- Daniel, what are you doing?
- You know…
769
00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:58,850
- Get back on script.
- …it's an interesting time in America.
770
00:43:58,930 --> 00:44:00,840
- What the hell is happening?
- We, the people,
771
00:44:00,930 --> 00:44:02,430
are asking tough questions.
772
00:44:02,510 --> 00:44:04,010
- The fuck?
- Our candidates…
773
00:44:04,100 --> 00:44:06,520
- Isabella?
- I had Howard Stern.
774
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,270
And we're just all looking to live…
775
00:44:08,350 --> 00:44:10,520
- Stick with it. Stick with it.
- Stick with it.
776
00:44:11,860 --> 00:44:15,860
And when I think of the American dream…
777
00:44:16,940 --> 00:44:19,110
I think of one person in particular.
778
00:44:22,990 --> 00:44:25,910
And so this song is in her honor.
779
00:44:29,460 --> 00:44:31,080
I don't see copy for this.
780
00:44:32,170 --> 00:44:37,340
Far
We've been traveling far
781
00:44:37,420 --> 00:44:38,420
Good God.
782
00:44:38,510 --> 00:44:40,300
Without a home
783
00:44:40,380 --> 00:44:42,260
- Is this normal?
- No.
784
00:44:42,340 --> 00:44:45,220
But not without a star
785
00:44:46,810 --> 00:44:52,060
Free
Only want to be free
786
00:44:52,980 --> 00:44:56,400
We huddle close
787
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,780
Hang on to a dream
788
00:45:02,030 --> 00:45:04,530
On the boats and on the planes
789
00:45:05,620 --> 00:45:08,290
They're comin' to America
790
00:45:08,370 --> 00:45:10,460
Stella. Hey.
791
00:45:12,620 --> 00:45:13,710
I have something to say.
792
00:45:14,290 --> 00:45:16,670
Can you talk in my dressing room?
793
00:45:16,750 --> 00:45:19,260
It won't take long.
I have to be back on air in a minute.
794
00:45:19,340 --> 00:45:21,090
- Sure. What the hell.
- Great.
795
00:45:23,140 --> 00:45:24,470
Yeah.
796
00:45:25,180 --> 00:45:26,180
So…
797
00:45:29,140 --> 00:45:31,270
- I want to talk to you about the debate.
- Christ.
798
00:45:31,350 --> 00:45:34,730
Look, I know everybody is coming at you,
and I don't need to come at you too.
799
00:45:34,810 --> 00:45:37,940
And I'm not gonna argue
my political acumen
800
00:45:38,030 --> 00:45:41,030
or my intellectual merits
or any of that bullshit.
801
00:45:41,110 --> 00:45:44,200
Quite frankly, I know that you want Alex
to moderate the debate,
802
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,700
and I respect that,
and I think she would be great.
803
00:45:47,330 --> 00:45:50,580
However, I think that I can offer
804
00:45:50,660 --> 00:45:54,370
a perspective that Alex doesn't
and that Eric doesn't.
805
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:59,670
And… this is just something
I barely acknowledge about myself
806
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:05,590
because, quite honestly,
I just don't know how I feel about it.
807
00:46:06,180 --> 00:46:09,930
But I want to be truthful.
808
00:46:17,860 --> 00:46:19,020
I'm…
809
00:46:23,110 --> 00:46:24,110
I'm…
810
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,410
from a Southern, conservative family.
811
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:39,670
And I think it would be more inclusive
if I asked questions
812
00:46:39,750 --> 00:46:43,800
from the background
of a person who comes from a…
813
00:46:45,050 --> 00:46:47,010
conservative, Southern background,
814
00:46:47,090 --> 00:46:49,810
I mean, you know,
questions they might ask.
815
00:46:49,890 --> 00:46:51,970
Today
816
00:46:52,060 --> 00:46:53,560
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
817
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,940
Today, today
818
00:46:57,020 --> 00:46:58,770
Today
819
00:46:58,860 --> 00:47:01,020
Today
820
00:47:01,110 --> 00:47:03,400
Today
821
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,740
My country 'tis of thee
822
00:47:08,620 --> 00:47:12,290
Sweet land of liberty
823
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,330
Of thee I sing
824
00:47:16,420 --> 00:47:18,830
We should...
We should take him out for a drink later.
825
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,590
Of thee I sing
826
00:47:21,670 --> 00:47:24,300
Today
827
00:47:25,340 --> 00:47:27,470
Today
828
00:47:35,100 --> 00:47:36,600
- Stella.
- Yeah? What's up?
829
00:47:36,690 --> 00:47:39,650
I sent Unilever yesterday's TMS overnight.
830
00:47:39,730 --> 00:47:41,730
They just made a huge buy for Dove.
831
00:47:41,820 --> 00:47:43,650
They hadn't bought since before Alex left.
832
00:47:43,730 --> 00:47:44,990
Wow. That's... Glad to hear it.
833
00:47:45,070 --> 00:47:47,780
Big week for us. Is that Daniel singing?
834
00:47:47,860 --> 00:47:51,450
But seriously, it's gonna be the best
February sweeps since I've been here.
835
00:47:51,530 --> 00:47:55,200
I think we'll get CPM up to 30%
for the foreseeable, thanks to Alex.
836
00:47:55,290 --> 00:47:56,660
Thanks to you.
837
00:47:56,750 --> 00:47:57,960
Swing by later.
838
00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,790
- I'll show you the numbers.
- Okay, cool.
839
00:48:02,090 --> 00:48:05,210
Today
840
00:48:08,180 --> 00:48:09,180
Today!
841
00:48:11,140 --> 00:48:17,140
Three, give me Daniel. Take 3.
Four, wide. Take it, 4.
842
00:48:20,020 --> 00:48:21,060
God!
843
00:48:22,940 --> 00:48:25,860
- Cut to Alex. Cut to Alex.
- Wow! What?
844
00:48:26,490 --> 00:48:28,820
My gosh!
845
00:48:28,900 --> 00:48:32,530
- Here comes Alex. Two, get her.
- What on earth just happened?
846
00:48:32,620 --> 00:48:35,200
- Daniel! My God! Daniel!
- For you, Alex.
847
00:48:35,290 --> 00:48:38,080
- Nice job. Stay with her.
- That was incredible!
848
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,210
- Thank you for that.
- Welcome back.
849
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,380
So sweet.
850
00:48:43,630 --> 00:48:47,170
I mean, God, I knew you had a voice,
but that was...
851
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,380
My gosh. Are you... Bradley? Yanko?
852
00:48:52,510 --> 00:48:54,720
- Hey, great show.
- Thanks, man.
853
00:48:58,810 --> 00:49:00,520
What the fuck was that, Bojangles?
854
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:29,920
Yeah!
855
00:49:31,380 --> 00:49:33,930
My God.
Stella, why are you doing this?
856
00:49:34,510 --> 00:49:38,180
I'm giving you the answer that you want.
I'm gonna tell Cory you tried. I promise.
857
00:49:39,430 --> 00:49:41,850
Alex, I know you have
way more experience than I do,
858
00:49:41,940 --> 00:49:43,690
but you don't know what I want.
859
00:49:43,770 --> 00:49:47,230
Because what I want in its broadest terms
has very little to do with you.
860
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,230
What I want is to change things here.
861
00:49:50,610 --> 00:49:54,110
Put yourself in my shoes.
Alex. Alex, look at me.
862
00:49:54,700 --> 00:49:55,870
Yes.
863
00:49:55,950 --> 00:49:58,330
If you were me,
wouldn't you want to start fresh?
864
00:49:58,410 --> 00:49:59,910
- I suppose I would.
- Okay.
865
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,290
I think we would all love to start fresh,
but we don't all have that opportunity.
866
00:50:03,370 --> 00:50:05,460
- Right.
- I am what I am.
867
00:50:05,540 --> 00:50:07,090
All right. Here it is.
868
00:50:07,170 --> 00:50:08,170
I'm young. I get it.
869
00:50:08,250 --> 00:50:10,119
I'd be annoyed by
me too, if I were you...
870
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:11,130
No, no, no, no.
871
00:50:11,210 --> 00:50:13,970
No, that's not why I'm saying no.
Don't... Don't even...
872
00:50:14,050 --> 00:50:15,640
- Okay, just hear me out.
- Yes, okay.
873
00:50:16,350 --> 00:50:20,430
This place was a rotten mess,
and you were living in it for 15 years.
874
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,980
I said it was a rotten mess. I said it.
875
00:50:23,060 --> 00:50:25,310
I know I shouldn't lump you
into the rotten mess,
876
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,150
because you tried to change it. You tried.
877
00:50:27,230 --> 00:50:28,810
- Yes.
- That's the same thing I want.
878
00:50:28,890 --> 00:50:32,570
You tried. But the jury's still out
as to whether or not you've succeeded.
879
00:50:32,650 --> 00:50:34,030
And I'm here as a result.
880
00:50:34,110 --> 00:50:35,780
- I'm sorry about that.
- Excuse me.
881
00:50:35,860 --> 00:50:37,820
Wow. Yes. Yes.
882
00:50:37,910 --> 00:50:39,200
And I'm 33.
883
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,750
And, you know,
I don't know the things I don't know.
884
00:50:41,830 --> 00:50:46,080
I know that. But I do know some things
that other people don't know,
885
00:50:46,170 --> 00:50:48,540
and other people don't always want
to know that.
886
00:50:48,630 --> 00:50:52,050
- You know what I mean?
- I do. Yep. No, I do. I do.
887
00:50:52,130 --> 00:50:54,510
I know you don't want to
or need to do this debate,
888
00:50:54,590 --> 00:50:56,010
but I want you to do it.
889
00:50:56,090 --> 00:50:57,850
And the reason why is because of exactly
890
00:50:57,930 --> 00:51:00,430
what you did nine months ago here
that changed everything,
891
00:51:00,510 --> 00:51:03,310
that brought me here in front of you
asking you to do this.
892
00:51:03,390 --> 00:51:06,230
You earned a connection
to the women of this country.
893
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:14,950
I'm not…
I'm not quite sure that that's true.
894
00:51:15,030 --> 00:51:17,410
It is. You mean something, Alex.
895
00:51:17,490 --> 00:51:23,040
You do. As a leader, as a feminist.
And I want you to be these things for me.
896
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,080
And, by the way, if you're looking
for a brand, there it is.
897
00:51:26,620 --> 00:51:29,080
I don't know why
you don't want to take that mantle,
898
00:51:29,750 --> 00:51:34,760
because nine months ago you opened a door,
and you need to walk through it now.
899
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,220
And we both know that. Okay?
900
00:51:38,340 --> 00:51:39,550
Okay.
901
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,720
Anyway, it was a great show today.
902
00:51:44,470 --> 00:51:45,480
Thank you.
903
00:52:06,620 --> 00:52:08,040
Yeah.
904
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:13,750
Hey, the professor you so kindly got me
the interview with, he just called.
905
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,170
He has coronavirus.
906
00:52:16,260 --> 00:52:18,380
I was with him for a few hours.
907
00:52:19,220 --> 00:52:23,260
Now, I don't know if I did get it,
if I could have given it to you,
908
00:52:23,350 --> 00:52:25,810
but I was with you
for a few hours in a car.
909
00:52:25,890 --> 00:52:28,690
It's totally crazy. It's bad.
910
00:52:28,770 --> 00:52:31,520
There are many cases, and it's everywhere.
911
00:52:32,060 --> 00:52:33,360
Yeah. Fuck.
912
00:52:34,070 --> 00:52:36,030
They are saying we have to quarantine.
913
00:52:36,110 --> 00:52:39,610
And it's a long time to spend alone.
914
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,200
We could work on the documentary.
915
00:52:45,540 --> 00:52:47,250
What do you think?
916
00:53:05,350 --> 00:53:06,350
Hey.
917
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,810
I know I have a lot of nerve
showing up here.
918
00:53:13,020 --> 00:53:14,360
I got you this.
919
00:53:15,770 --> 00:53:19,570
It's a gift card. $300.
920
00:53:22,030 --> 00:53:25,330
I didn't know what to...
I... Look, I don't know who I am.
921
00:53:25,410 --> 00:53:27,910
I don't...
I know I'm a total pain in the ass,
922
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,500
but I just... I want to tell you that
923
00:53:30,580 --> 00:53:33,630
because I want you to know
that I know that I am.
924
00:53:40,590 --> 00:53:42,220
Please. Please.
925
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,130
I need a minute with Cybil,
if I can get you to clear the room.
926
00:54:16,210 --> 00:54:17,340
Thank you.
927
00:54:24,300 --> 00:54:28,060
Well, this is a new one on me.
I can only imagine.
928
00:54:29,390 --> 00:54:30,560
I need your help.
929
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:35,650
Fred is planting nasty stories
about Hannah Shoenfeld in the press.
930
00:54:35,730 --> 00:54:39,570
I mean, it's gross.
I don't care if her father is suing us.
931
00:54:39,650 --> 00:54:41,320
Frankly, I understand. I...
932
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:47,400
Look, I get it.
Losing a child is… unimaginable pain.
933
00:54:48,830 --> 00:54:53,120
But it is not our responsibility
to make it okay for this poor guy.
934
00:54:53,210 --> 00:54:56,330
And trust me,
it won't make it okay for him.
935
00:54:56,420 --> 00:54:59,000
Nothing will.
So, what do you want me to do about it?
936
00:54:59,090 --> 00:55:02,340
I want you to talk to Fred
and tell him to kill the stories.
937
00:55:02,420 --> 00:55:04,380
He's not gonna listen to me,
and you're friends...
938
00:55:04,470 --> 00:55:05,840
That guy's not my friend.
939
00:55:07,090 --> 00:55:08,640
The last time I talked to him,
940
00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:12,180
he sat me down and told me that you were
objectively the best business decision.
941
00:55:12,270 --> 00:55:14,980
Now, I really don't think so.
942
00:55:15,060 --> 00:55:19,110
You let the talent walk all over you,
if you can call Bradley Jackson talent,
943
00:55:19,190 --> 00:55:22,030
and you pushed us hard to pay out Fred
944
00:55:22,110 --> 00:55:25,570
rather than have
a truly independent investigation.
945
00:55:26,910 --> 00:55:29,950
That brings up all sorts of questions.
946
00:55:30,030 --> 00:55:32,040
Questions I don't need answered.
947
00:55:32,870 --> 00:55:35,750
This is a business, not a morality play.
948
00:55:35,830 --> 00:55:37,750
So don't lay that trip on me.
949
00:55:38,380 --> 00:55:40,670
If the stories he's planting aren't true,
950
00:55:40,750 --> 00:55:44,760
then the girl's family will have
a hell of a libel case on their hands.
951
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:48,550
The fact that you showed up here
rather than calling Fred directly
952
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:53,060
tells me everything I need to know
about why Fred pushed so hard for you
953
00:55:53,140 --> 00:55:55,810
when he clearly hated you with a passion.
954
00:55:57,770 --> 00:56:00,230
Two shitty peas in one shitty pod.
955
00:56:00,310 --> 00:56:04,320
I guess it's time to face the fact
that actions have consequences,
956
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,900
and I keep my temple clean.
957
00:56:06,990 --> 00:56:12,990
So whatever those consequences are
is really none of my business.
958
00:56:16,790 --> 00:56:18,420
Give my regards to Fred.
