00:06:40,051 --> 00:06:42,575
We both agree
nothing's gonna change,

160
00:06:42,576 --> 00:06:46,405
and my Miss Piggy football
is a great investment!

161
00:06:46,406 --> 00:06:48,538
Just use that last part.

162
00:06:49,887 --> 00:06:51,322
I found it!

163
00:06:51,323 --> 00:06:53,020
The sword I was talking about.

164
00:06:53,021 --> 00:06:54,804
Tom Cruise
used it in that movie

165
00:06:54,805 --> 00:06:56,415
where he played the samurai.

166
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:58,460
It's true,
he actually did that.

167
00:06:58,461 --> 00:07:00,593
We should use this
in our movie.

168
00:07:00,594 --> 00:07:03,944
- Reggie has an amazing idea
for the ending.

169
00:07:03,945 --> 00:07:10,516
I get taken, and Reggie
rescues me with a famous sword.

170
00:07:10,517 --> 00:07:13,301
- Reggie, you know what the
word documentary means, right?

171
00:07:13,302 --> 00:07:15,956
- Well, I assume it's from
the Latin word documentum,

172
00:07:15,957 --> 00:07:18,480
meaning lesson or instruction.

173
00:07:18,481 --> 00:07:20,047
I took Latin in college,
'cause I thought

174
00:07:20,048 --> 00:07:22,049
it would help me
meet Dominican chicks.

175
00:07:22,050 --> 00:07:24,094
But then I liked it.

176
00:07:24,095 --> 00:07:25,922
So many languages come from it.

177
00:07:25,923 --> 00:07:27,271
I'm just trying to
make this movie

178
00:07:27,272 --> 00:07:28,882
the best that it can be...
- Documentary.

179
00:07:28,883 --> 00:07:31,667
And you... you can't really make
a documentary work, Reggie.

180
00:07:31,668 --> 00:07:33,887
Frankly, all this fake
play-acting you're doing

181
00:07:33,888 --> 00:07:35,497
is really getting in the way.

182
00:07:35,498 --> 00:07:37,325
- I'm sorry, but he wrote
things for me to say.

183
00:07:37,326 --> 00:07:39,806
I mean, "Dad,
you're such a good dancer.

184
00:07:39,807 --> 00:07:41,460
Can you teach me
how to 'doo-zhee?'"

185
00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:42,809
- It's Dougie!

186
00:07:42,810 --> 00:07:45,464
We practiced this!
- Now I know it's Dougie.

187
00:07:45,465 --> 00:07:48,989
- So we have got to talk about
what happened

188
00:07:48,990 --> 00:07:52,166
after the 2005
AFC Championship game...

189
00:07:52,167 --> 00:07:53,994
- I mixed up
some phone numbers.

190
00:07:53,995 --> 00:07:55,474
It can happen to anyone.

191
00:07:55,475 --> 00:07:58,041
- Reggie Dinkins,
you straight owned Indy today.

192
00:07:58,042 --> 00:08:00,479
How does it feel to be
Super Bowl-bound?

193
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,525
<i>- Better for me than you!
'Cause you owe me 250k...</i>

194
00:08:03,526 --> 00:08:05,745
<i>a hunnid for the win,
a hunnid for going</i>

195
00:08:05,746 --> 00:08:08,356
<i>over 200 yards,
and 50 for scoring</i>

196
00:08:08,357 --> 00:08:11,141
<i>more than one touchdown.
I scored four.</i>

197
00:08:11,142 --> 00:08:13,492
- What, are you...
are you saying

198
00:08:13,493 --> 00:08:15,189
that you gambled on the game?!

199
00:08:15,190 --> 00:08:16,886
<i>- [laughs]
Very funny.</i>

200
00:08:16,887 --> 00:08:19,802
<i>You know I bet on every game.
You're my bookie!</i>

201
00:08:19,803 --> 00:08:21,891
<i>- Hey, and put
a thousand in quarters.</i>

202
00:08:21,892 --> 00:08:23,719
<i>We're going to
Dave and Buster's!</i>

203
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,416
<i>- You know it, brother.</i>

204
00:08:25,417 --> 00:08:27,506
<i>Now, where's the phone number
for that live TV interview</i>

205
00:08:27,507 --> 00:08:29,552
<i>I'm supposed to do?</i>

206
00:08:31,293 --> 00:08:34,034
- You were immediately banned
for life from football.

207
00:08:34,035 --> 00:08:35,688
- Yeah, but I only bet
on myself!

208
00:08:35,689 --> 00:08:36,993
And I only bet to win.

209
00:08:36,994 --> 00:08:39,039
That was more motivation
to play good.

210
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,258
Sort of how like
a waitress works for tips?

211
00:08:41,259 --> 00:08:43,391
- Without you, your teammates
lost the Super Bowl

212
00:08:43,392 --> 00:08:45,524
to Seattle 61 to 2.

213
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:46,916
You were dropped
by Progresso soup.

214
00:08:46,917 --> 00:08:48,004
Your episode of
"Ghost Whisperer"

215
00:08:48,005 --> 00:08:49,528
never even aired.

216
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:51,965
- Yeah, and that really
messed up Melinda's season arc!

217
00:08:51,966 --> 00:08:55,621
Okay, that's not what this
documentary is about, dude.

218
00:08:55,622 --> 00:08:57,405
- Like I told you on the phone,
we don't really know

219
00:08:57,406 --> 00:08:58,885
what this documentary
is about yet.

220
00:08:58,886 --> 00:09:00,277
It will emerge...

221
00:09:00,278 --> 00:09:02,976
- And I told you
this was a puff piece, okay?

222
00:09:02,977 --> 00:09:05,500
That I'm paying for! Hey...

223
00:09:05,501 --> 00:09:06,893
[grunting]

224
00:09:06,894 --> 00:09:09,069
None of this is going
in the documentary!

225
00:09:09,070 --> 00:09:11,724
Now, I want you to come
film me dunking

226
00:09:11,725 --> 00:09:13,639
on a regulation 10-foot hoop.

227
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,641
[grunts]

228
00:09:15,642 --> 00:09:17,556
Shoot me so
you can't see the ground!

229
00:09:17,557 --> 00:09:19,123
- Okay, come down.
My turn.

230
00:09:22,823 --> 00:09:24,911
- Can we talk
about the gambling?

231
00:09:24,912 --> 00:09:26,216
- Oh, jeez, uh, Reggie
said I wasn't supposed

232
00:09:26,217 --> 00:09:27,783
to talk about the G word.

233
00:09:27,784 --> 00:09:30,307
- Of course my dad was upset.

234
00:09:30,308 --> 00:09:31,787
I don't like talking
about it either.

235
00:09:31,788 --> 00:09:33,572
- So you want to talk
about the worst thing

236
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:35,399
that ever happened
to my family?

237
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,620
- But I don't know if
he meant gambling or grandma.

238
00:09:38,621 --> 00:09:41,101
'Cause in my family,
we don't talk about it much,

239
00:09:41,102 --> 00:09:43,974
but Grandma shoplifts.

240
00:09:47,108 --> 00:09:48,456
- Come on, Marty, guys,

241
00:09:48,457 --> 00:09:49,892
I know we said
"film everything,"

242
00:09:49,893 --> 00:09:51,328
but can you give it
a rest, please?

243
00:09:51,329 --> 00:09:52,808
[door thudding,
footsteps approaching]

244
00:09:52,809 --> 00:09:55,506
- I am onto you,
Mr. Arthur Tobin.

245
00:09:55,507 --> 00:09:58,597
Yeah, I know why this
bearded infant took this job.

246
00:09:58,598 --> 00:09:59,859
- Oh, wha...? I don't...
what do you... which thing?

247
00:09:59,860 --> 00:10:01,034
I don't know what you mean.

248
00:10:01,035 --> 00:10:03,514
- It turns out
I can't even trust you

249
00:10:03,515 --> 00:10:05,821
to do what Reggie
is paying you for.

250
00:10:05,822 --> 00:10:07,693
I saw one of
your little movies.

251
00:10:07,694 --> 00:10:09,085
At four-times speed
on my phone.

252
00:10:09,086 --> 00:10:12,698
It was good.
You won the damn Oscar.

253
00:10:12,699 --> 00:10:16,919
So why would the director
of "A Rose for Joshua"

254
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,399
even be here?

255
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:19,966
To make some artsy movie

256
00:10:19,967 --> 00:10:21,532
where Reggie looks
like a tragic loser?

257
00:10:21,533 --> 00:10:22,925
- No, no, no, no.

258
00:10:22,926 --> 00:10:24,927
I just... I think there
could be a real doc here.

259
00:10:24,928 --> 00:10:26,799
Short for "documentary."

260
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,366
You know,
maybe something about

261
00:10:29,367 --> 00:10:31,238
our national gambling
addiction, or how fame...

262
00:10:31,239 --> 00:10:32,631
- So I was right.

263
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:35,068
You're here to get
what you need.

264
00:10:35,069 --> 00:10:37,287
But you, sir, are
underestimating Reggie Dinkins.

265
00:10:37,288 --> 00:10:40,813
He is not going to let you
hijack his movie.

266
00:10:40,814 --> 00:10:44,207
- He doesn't even want a movie.
He wants a commercial.

267
00:10:44,208 --> 00:10:46,819
And I swore I would never
make another commercial.

268
00:10:46,820 --> 00:10:49,299
<i>[tinkling piano melody]</i>

269
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:53,739
- You. Me. Same.

270
00:10:53,740 --> 00:10:55,610
- And besides,
I couldn't make Reggie's movie

271
00:10:55,611 --> 00:10:58,395
even if I wanted to,
because I can't...

272
00:10:58,396 --> 00:11:01,921
- "Can't" what, Arthur?

273
00:11:01,922 --> 00:11:04,837
- So I spoke to the NFL lawyers
earlier today,

274
00:11:04,838 --> 00:11:06,752
and there is a slight chance

275
00:11:06,753 --> 00:11:09,537
they won't let us use
any game footage.

276
00:11:09,538 --> 00:11:11,495
No, no, I... I know
Reggie Dinkins

277
00:11:11,496 --> 00:11:12,932
is a stain on the Shield,

278
00:11:12,933 --> 00:11:16,065
but I just think that
by redeeming him, we can...

279
00:11:16,066 --> 00:11:17,632
Okay, look.

280
00:11:17,633 --> 00:11:21,202
Please, please, Susan,
I need this to work.

281
00:11:25,206 --> 00:11:26,685
[grunts]

282
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:27,990
- [laughs]

283
00:11:27,991 --> 00:11:29,949
This is over.

284
00:11:29,950 --> 00:11:32,386
- Okay.
Okay.

285
00:11:32,387 --> 00:11:34,823
I said please stop
shooting me, Marty!

286
00:11:34,824 --> 00:11:36,912
- Right,
but he said to follow you.

287
00:11:36,913 --> 00:11:39,262
- Oh, did we film some stuff

288
00:11:39,263 --> 00:11:40,960
you wouldn't want
people to see?

289
00:11:40,961 --> 00:11:42,701
How's your own medicine taste?

290
00:11:42,702 --> 00:11:43,919
- Very cute, Reggie.

291
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,442
Why would I use
any of this footage?

292
00:11:45,443 --> 00:11:47,140
- Because you work for me!

293
00:11:47,141 --> 00:11:49,969
- Well, Arthur won't be
working for you very long.

294
00:11:49,970 --> 00:11:51,710
He can't even get the NFL

295
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:54,060
to let him use
your old game footage.

296
00:11:54,061 --> 00:11:55,409
- Seriously?

297
00:11:55,410 --> 00:11:56,671
I mean,
what's a sports documentary

298
00:11:56,672 --> 00:11:58,499
without sports?
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

299
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,936
- I told you not to make
this stupid movie.

300
00:12:00,937 --> 00:12:02,721
It is a waste of money.

301
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,157
- Yeah, my money!

302
00:12:04,158 --> 00:12:05,811
The money that pays
for your BMW

303
00:12:05,812 --> 00:12:07,726
and your son's fart medication.

304
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:09,292
- Can we not put that in?

305
00:12:09,293 --> 00:12:12,513
- And my agent works for me,
Monica.

306
00:12:12,514 --> 00:12:14,080
So if I say
we're gonna waste money,

307
00:12:14,081 --> 00:12:15,777
we're gonna waste some money!

308
00:12:15,778 --> 00:12:19,085
- Reggie's not your man
anymore, Monica!

309
00:12:19,086 --> 00:12:21,740
Monica's never been anything
but lovely to me.

310
00:12:21,741 --> 00:12:23,393
I just want to be
in the documentary.

311
00:12:23,394 --> 00:12:25,787
- Archibald Reginald Dinkins,

312
00:12:25,788 --> 00:12:28,355
I have put my life
on hold for you.

313
00:12:28,356 --> 00:12:30,357
But if you're not gonna
listen to my advice,

314
00:12:30,358 --> 00:12:32,663
there's no point
in me even being here.

315
00:12:32,664 --> 00:12:34,796
I do have other options,
you know.

316
00:12:34,797 --> 00:12:36,363
- So go!

317
00:12:36,364 --> 00:12:37,886
I'm the only reason why
them people was interested

318
00:12:37,887 --> 00:12:39,018
in you anyway.

319
00:12:39,019 --> 00:12:40,280
I'm all you got.

320
00:12:40,281 --> 00:12:41,803
- That's not fair, Reg.

321
00:12:41,804 --> 00:12:43,457
She represents
a kid who plays Fortnite

322
00:12:43,458 --> 00:12:45,720
and Geena Davis,
but just for archery.

323
00:12:45,721 --> 00:12:48,723
- You go tell those agent
people you don't represent

324
00:12:48,724 --> 00:12:50,464
Reggie Dinkins no more.

325
00:12:50,465 --> 00:12:53,772
Let's see how long
they want you around then.

326
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:57,166
- If you insist!

327
00:12:57,167 --> 00:12:58,733
I quit.
- You know what?

328
00:12:58,734 --> 00:13:00,039
She's right.

329
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,867
This is a waste of
your money and my time.

330
00:13:01,868 --> 00:13:04,173
I don't even care
that my career is ov...

331
00:13:04,174 --> 00:13:07,698
this could have been
a really good film.

332
00:13:07,699 --> 00:13:09,135
But you had to ruin it.

333
00:13:09,136 --> 00:13:11,180
So you can mail
my posters back to me

334
00:13:11,181 --> 00:13:13,139
at the University of Maryland
Center for Documentary,

335
00:13:13,140 --> 00:13:15,358
Anime, and Pornography.
- Good!

336
00:13:15,359 --> 00:13:16,925
We'll make this movie
without you.

337
00:13:16,926 --> 00:13:19,145
Yeah, movie!

338
00:13:19,146 --> 00:13:22,539
Yeah!
Whoo!

339
00:13:22,540 --> 00:13:25,847
[grunting]

340
00:13:25,848 --> 00:13:27,240
- You don't need to do it
in slow-mo, man.

341
00:13:27,241 --> 00:13:28,807
We could just do that
in the computer.

342
00:13:28,808 --> 00:13:32,854
- I'm going as fast
as I can, Rusty!

343
00:13:32,855 --> 00:13:34,987
[whistle tweets]

344
00:13:34,988 --> 00:13:37,991
- Good job, baby!

345
00:13:43,126 --> 00:13:45,040
- Hey, Dad,

346
00:13:45,041 --> 00:13:47,695
what if I play you
in the reenactments?

347
00:13:47,696 --> 00:13:49,436
I mean, I know
all your old moves.

348
00:13:49,437 --> 00:13:53,092
Huh.
- I call that the Go Away, You!

349
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:55,790
We're gonna figure this out
without Arthur Tobin

350
00:13:55,791 --> 00:13:59,402
and She Who Shall Not Be Named.
- Yeah.

351
00:13:59,403 --> 00:14:01,361
But you know, that fight
with Mom, that was...

352
00:14:01,362 --> 00:14:02,536
- Mom?

353
00:14:02,537 --> 00:14:04,277
I would never fight
with my mother.

354
00:14:04,278 --> 00:14:06,975
She lives in Florida,
and she's a saint.

355
00:14:06,976 --> 00:14:08,585
- Mom mom.

356
00:14:08,586 --> 00:14:11,980
Like, she didn't quit
for real, right?

357
00:14:11,981 --> 00:14:13,677
'Cause we do need her.

358
00:14:13,678 --> 00:14:14,983
- For what?

359
00:14:14,984 --> 00:14:16,855
Brina can do anything
she can do.

360
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,770
Bri-Bri,
will you call my knee doctor

361
00:14:19,771 --> 00:14:24,253
and tell him that
little hat bone is gone?

362
00:14:24,254 --> 00:14:26,082
- Okay, honey.

363
00:14:28,998 --> 00:14:31,565
- What?
- Nothing.

364
00:14:31,566 --> 00:14:33,654
- Come on.
[chuckles]

365
00:14:33,655 --> 00:14:35,090
You can be real with me.

366
00:14:35,091 --> 00:14:39,660
Like I always say,
a son is just a homey you make.

367
00:14:39,661 --> 00:14:41,792
- You do say that.

368
00:14:41,793 --> 00:14:45,013
It's just,
I really want this to work.

369
00:14:45,014 --> 00:14:46,797
And real talk,
it hasn't always been easy

370
00:14:46,798 --> 00:14:48,669
for me, either.

371
00:14:48,670 --> 00:14:51,063
Playing football
with Dinkins on my back?

372
00:14:51,064 --> 00:14:53,717
[scoffs]
I take more crap than anyone,

373
00:14:53,718 --> 00:14:56,982
and there's a kid on our team
named Osama Epstein.

374
00:14:56,983 --> 00:14:58,809
- You think I don't know that?

375
00:14:58,810 --> 00:15:00,550
I know I hurt you all...

376
00:15:00,551 --> 00:15:03,640
you, your mother, even Rusty.

377
00:15:03,641 --> 00:15:06,643
But if I can't fix
all this, son,

378
00:15:06,644 --> 00:15:09,820
then what kind of man am I?

379
00:15:09,821 --> 00:15:11,170
And I would be stomping off
right now,

380
00:15:11,171 --> 00:15:13,824
but my knee is locked
in this position.

381
00:15:13,825 --> 00:15:15,304
- Monica!

382
00:15:15,305 --> 00:15:19,004
Bro, we are so amped...
and I don't use

383
00:15:19,005 --> 00:15:21,571
that word lightly...
to meet you.

384
00:15:21,572 --> 00:15:24,574
But I gotta start by asking
about Reggie Dinkins.

385
00:15:24,575 --> 00:15:27,403
- Right, well, um,
full disclosure,

386
00:15:27,404 --> 00:15:29,797
I recently ended my
professional relationship

387
00:15:29,798 --> 00:15:31,886
with Reggie.

388
00:15:31,887 --> 00:15:34,541
- That is music to my ears,

389
00:15:34,542 --> 00:15:36,064
and I don't even
listen to music.

390
00:15:36,065 --> 00:15:38,937
Like, what's the point?
- Well, I'm glad you're amped.

391
00:15:38,938 --> 00:15:40,373
- Oh, no, no.

392
00:15:40,374 --> 00:15:43,028
I was amped before,
but now I am full-on pumped.

393
00:15:43,029 --> 00:15:45,073
<i>T.B. Honest,
you repping Reggie</i>

394
00:15:45,074 --> 00:15:48,468
was kind of the only thing
keeping us from getting pumped.

395
00:15:48,469 --> 00:15:50,035
<i>That guy was dead weight.</i>

396
00:15:50,036 --> 00:15:51,688
- [politely chuckles]
He is the father of my child.

397
00:15:51,689 --> 00:15:52,994
- No, I get it.

398
00:15:52,995 --> 00:15:55,431
That's why dropping him
is such a baller move.

399
00:15:55,432 --> 00:15:58,521
<i>And now, um, I guess
he can go back to betting</i>

400
00:15:58,522 --> 00:16:01,829
on football, right?
[laughs]

401
00:16:01,830 --> 00:16:03,178
- He'll be fine.

402
00:16:03,179 --> 00:16:04,963
Reggie's actually
making his own moves.

403
00:16:04,964 --> 00:16:06,529
He's working on making
a documentary...

404
00:16:06,530 --> 00:16:07,748
<i>- Oh.</i>

405
00:16:07,749 --> 00:16:10,055
- With an
Oscar-winning director.

406
00:16:10,056 --> 00:16:12,057
You may know Arthur Tobin.

407
00:16:12,058 --> 00:16:13,928
- [laughs]
Oh, wow.

408
00:16:13,929 --> 00:16:16,365
Oh, my God, Tobin?!

409
00:16:16,366 --> 00:16:18,933
That's hilarious!

410
00:16:18,934 --> 00:16:22,632
- Wait, what's hilarious
about Arthur Tobin?

411
00:16:22,633 --> 00:16:24,939
- Reggie, I can't do this.

412
00:16:24,940 --> 00:16:27,420
You know I was excited
about the documentary.

413
00:16:27,421 --> 00:16:30,292
But if it's between
the movie and Monica,

414
00:16:30,293 --> 00:16:31,902
you gotta choose Monica.

415
00:16:31,903 --> 00:16:33,730
I called every doctor
in your phone,

416
00:16:33,731 --> 00:16:36,255
and they all DJs.
- And Julius Erving.

417
00:16:36,256 --> 00:16:38,300
- This is not just
about your knee.

418
00:16:38,301 --> 00:16:40,911
Monica is a part of your life.

419
00:16:40,912 --> 00:16:42,696
She's a part of our life.

420
00:16:42,697 --> 00:16:46,265
You remember on vacation
when we got lost in Tuscany?

421
00:16:46,266 --> 00:16:48,745
But Monica had put
an AirTag on you,

422
00:16:48,746 --> 00:16:51,139
and that's how the police
were able to find us.

423
00:16:51,140 --> 00:16:52,401
- If it weren't for her,

424
00:16:52,402 --> 00:16:54,577
we'd still be trapped
in that mausoleum.

425
00:16:54,578 --> 00:16:56,405
- I knew she was a part
of the deal going in.

426
00:16:56,406 --> 00:16:59,495
She has to be.

427
00:16:59,496 --> 00:17:02,455
- The talent guys here,
they used to rep Tobin.

428
00:17:02,456 --> 00:17:04,196
After he won that Oscar,

429
00:17:04,197 --> 00:17:06,372
they got him
a full-on Marvel movie.

430
00:17:06,373 --> 00:17:09,027
- He directed
a superhero movie?

431
00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:10,289
- He tried!

432
00:17:10,290 --> 00:17:12,160
He couldn't handle
the pressure.

433
00:17:12,161 --> 00:17:14,641
Total on-set breakdown.
Tanked the whole project.

434
00:17:14,642 --> 00:17:16,860
It got swept under the rug
'cause Disney

435
00:17:16,861 --> 00:17:21,778
didn't want to tarnish the IP,
but the video is epic.

436
00:17:21,779 --> 00:17:23,606
Here, I'll put it in the chat.

437
00:17:23,607 --> 00:17:26,000
- You are Professor Squeeze, obviously.

438
00:17:26,001 --> 00:17:29,047
Uh, this tennis ball
here is Deathatron,

439
00:17:29,048 --> 00:17:31,788
and these are... moons?

440
00:17:31,789 --> 00:17:33,312
Space babies?!

441
00:17:33,313 --> 00:17:35,270
Why are there
more tennis balls?

442
00:17:35,271 --> 00:17:38,360
Wait, the scene is
a tennis match now?

443
00:17:38,361 --> 00:17:40,014
What, so some of
these tennis balls

444
00:17:40,015 --> 00:17:41,407
are actually tennis balls?

445
00:17:41,408 --> 00:17:42,886
Which ones?!

446
00:17:42,887 --> 00:17:47,065

No sense!

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
but this is too perfect.

you so wisely

463
00:18:20,751 --> 00:18:23,362

00:18:38,682 --> 00:18:42,555
- So please,
former baby, take me back.

473
00:18:42,556 --> 00:18:44,513
But only professionally.

474
00:18:44,514 --> 00:18:46,907
- Fine.

475
00:18:46,908 --> 00:18:49,214
'Cause I didn't take the job.

476
00:18:49,215 --> 00:18:52,695
Remember that scooter that
I bought you back in the day?

477
00:18:52,696 --> 00:18:56,482
I always bet on Reggie Dinkins.

478
00:18:56,483 --> 00:18:58,440
- Just like I did illegally.

479
00:18:58,441 --> 00:19:03,793
- But Reg, those LA pricks,
they think you're a lost cause.

480
00:19:03,794 --> 00:19:08,233
And the truth is,
I'm out of ideas.

481
00:19:08,234 --> 00:19:10,931
But you actually have one,
so...

482
00:19:10,932 --> 00:19:14,891
[sighs]
You want to take your shot?

483
00:19:14,892 --> 00:19:17,720
- Are you saying what
I think you're saying?

484
00:19:17,721 --> 00:19:20,462
That I can get a gun?

485
00:19:20,463 --> 00:19:23,466
- I'm saying we need
to go find Arthur Tobin.

486
00:19:24,685 --> 00:19:26,860
[bus horn honks]

487
00:19:26,861 --> 00:19:28,383
- Aw!

488
00:19:28,384 --> 00:19:30,734
- [sighs]
We missed it.

489
00:19:32,562 --> 00:19:34,215
Oh, great.

490
00:19:34,216 --> 00:19:36,609
- Did you lie about
being from Baltimore?

491
00:19:36,610 --> 00:19:38,872
What a weird lie!
- What? No.

492
00:19:38,873 --> 00:19:41,353
I just needed
some time to think.

493
00:19:41,354 --> 00:19:43,485
- Arthur,
I get why you don't want

494
00:19:43,486 --> 00:19:45,531
to go home like this again.

495
00:19:45,532 --> 00:19:47,402
I know about
"Professor Squeeze."

496
00:19:47,403 --> 00:19:49,012
- It's not your fault,
robot that will

497
00:19:49,013 --> 00:19:50,840
be voiced by Keira Knightley.

498
00:19:50,841 --> 00:19:53,147
It's yours, Viola Davis.

499
00:19:53,148 --> 00:19:56,063
Okay, wow.
Yes, congratulations, Monica.

500
00:19:56,064 --> 00:19:57,804
You are right again.

501
00:19:57,805 --> 00:20:00,676
I can't be trusted
to do anything.

502
00:20:00,677 --> 00:20:03,897
I can't even sell out properly,
and I haven't worked since.

503
00:20:03,898 --> 00:20:05,507
They... they repossessed my car,

504
00:20:05,508 --> 00:20:07,466
so yes, I had to take the bus
here to the first job

505
00:20:07,467 --> 00:20:10,817
I have been offered
in two years.

506
00:20:10,818 --> 00:20:12,862
- So you lied when you said
you took it 'cause

507
00:20:12,863 --> 00:20:15,517
I'm your childhood hero?
- I never said that.

508
00:20:15,518 --> 00:20:18,259
You're not my childhood hero...
- Here's the thing, Arthur.

509
00:20:18,260 --> 00:20:20,087
I was wrong about you.

510
00:20:20,088 --> 00:20:22,437
I thought there was no way you
could understand Reggie's life.

511
00:20:22,438 --> 00:20:24,744
But you may be
the one person who can.

512
00:20:24,745 --> 00:20:27,225
- 'Cause you messed up
just as bad as me.

513
00:20:27,226 --> 00:20:30,968
You. Me. Same.

514
00:20:32,622 --> 00:20:35,363
- Oh, you're... you're saying
you want me to come back?

515
00:20:35,364 --> 00:20:36,538
- If we're gonna do this,

516
00:20:36,539 --> 00:20:37,583
we're gonna have to do it
your way.

517
00:20:37,584 --> 00:20:39,846
Reggie has to face
what happened...

518
00:20:39,847 --> 00:20:41,935
like in David Beckham's movie
when he admitted

519
00:20:41,936 --> 00:20:43,458
to having
all those dumb-ass haircuts.

520
00:20:43,459 --> 00:20:44,981
- Remember them cornrows?

521
00:20:44,982 --> 00:20:47,549
<i>He met Nelson Mandela
with those.</i>

522
00:20:47,550 --> 00:20:52,859
- And hey, if this thing
actually somehow works,

523
00:20:52,860 --> 00:20:55,296
it's a win-win-win.

524
00:20:55,297 --> 00:20:57,516
But, you know,
you're gonna also have

525
00:20:57,517 --> 00:20:58,995
to show people the good stuff.

526
00:20:58,996 --> 00:21:01,868
Reggie messed up, but
he deserves a second chance.

527
00:21:01,869 --> 00:21:04,653
You both do.

528
00:21:04,654 --> 00:21:07,265
- Use that in the documentary.

529
00:21:07,266 --> 00:21:09,310
- Maybe.

530
00:21:09,311 --> 00:21:12,139
At least that was real.

531
00:21:12,140 --> 00:21:15,969
- Oh, snap!
That reminds me!

532
00:21:15,970 --> 00:21:19,189
Guys!
Guys, stop!

533
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:20,582
- Sorry, Mr. D.

534
00:21:20,583 --> 00:21:22,149
We were waiting for you
to come save him

535
00:21:22,150 --> 00:21:25,283
with a famous sword,
but you never showed up.

536
00:21:25,284 --> 00:21:27,286
- Did I do good, Reggie?
