of the French Revolution.

24
00:01:11,113 --> 00:01:13,323
The year was 1789.

25
00:01:13,407 --> 00:01:16,034
King Louis the 16th
and his wife, Marie Antoinette,

26
00:01:16,118 --> 00:01:18,036
were throwing Moulin Rouge parties.

27
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,080
Many of which devolved into orgies,

with yicky-yicky-ya-ya-ja-ja.

Well, just the music clearances
on these Baz Luhrmann sequences alone

39
00:01:46,481 --> 00:01:48,025
are bankrupting the monarchy.

Oh, dear. But our hardworking
French laborers

four hours per week

Can nothing be done?

44

I think we should levy
a tax on the peasantry.

and moving it to there.

52
00:02:20,682 --> 00:02:24,186
The whole French economy
is based on slightly moving loose hay.

-I'm here to collect some taxes.
-What?

55
00:02:27,814 --> 00:02:30,692
The King is levying
a land tax and a head tax.

56
00:02:30,776 --> 00:02:33,570
A head tax?
But that could be thousands.

57

Also, now there's a salt tax.

58

00:06:30,807 --> 00:06:32,267
What? Oh, you bitch!

158
00:06:32,350 --> 00:06:33,727
I was gonna do this to you.

159
00:06:33,810 --> 00:06:36,521
-[yells]
-This is awesome. And the best thing is

160
00:06:36,605 --> 00:06:38,523
that it'll for sure never happen to me.

161
00:06:38,607 --> 00:06:39,900
[Robespierre yells]

162
00:06:39,983 --> 00:06:42,360
Uh, I know I wanted
to be "head" of state,

163
00:06:42,444 --> 00:06:44,529
but this is-- Oh, my brain's stopping.

164
00:06:44,613 --> 00:06:46,573
I can't believe we did
the whole French Revolution,

165
00:06:46,656 --> 00:06:48,783
and not even a single song from Les Mis.

166
00:06:48,867 --> 00:06:51,411
Les Mis is set during
the Rebellion of 1832,

167
00:06:51,494 --> 00:06:53,580
not the French revolution of 1789.

168
00:06:53,663 --> 00:06:55,290
Oh, that's stupid.

169
00:07:00,837 --> 00:07:03,673
Damn it, Meg, I told you
to stop taking my jog bras.

170
00:07:03,757 --> 00:07:04,758
I haven't.

171
00:07:04,841 --> 00:07:07,552
Well, they're missing.
And there's no other explanation.

172
00:07:07,636 --> 00:07:10,305
Look, you both need to stop
counting your bras.

173
00:07:10,388 --> 00:07:12,307
It's not important where they went.

174
00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:14,392
Sometimes families have conflicts.

175
00:07:14,476 --> 00:07:16,936
But did you know that
at one point in U.S. history,

176
00:07:17,020 --> 00:07:19,606
family members actually went
to war with each other?

177
00:07:19,689 --> 00:07:21,149
What? What... What is this?

178
00:07:21,232 --> 00:07:24,110
It's community service. He got arrested
for something. What did you do, Brian?

179
00:07:24,194 --> 00:07:26,279
Let's take our next historical journey.

180
00:07:26,363 --> 00:07:29,157
I heard he got caught stealing
mobile orders at Starbucks.

181
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,785
Does he look like his name is Rasheed?

182
00:07:31,868 --> 00:07:35,288
Uh, our...
Our historical journey to the year 1861.

183
00:07:35,372 --> 00:07:39,000
They're going to remember
what Rasheed looks like, Brian.

184
00:07:39,084 --> 00:07:43,254
It was 1861 when America
was inaugurating a new president.

185
00:07:43,338 --> 00:07:47,258
I, President Abraham Lincoln,
vow that I will have an open mind.

186
00:07:47,342 --> 00:07:50,970
The back of my mind in particular
will be very open and exposed.

187
00:07:51,054 --> 00:07:52,806
[Chris] That's also foreshadowing.

188
00:07:52,889 --> 00:07:54,599
Brian said I could keep helping out.

189
00:07:54,683 --> 00:07:56,434
I'm grateful that you elected me.

190
00:07:56,518 --> 00:07:59,646
And right away, I want to apologize
for my mentally ill wife.

191
00:07:59,729 --> 00:08:01,147
What the hell?

192
00:08:01,231 --> 00:08:05,318
My nickname will be honest-about
everything- except-that-one-thing Abe.

193
00:08:05,402 --> 00:08:07,153
That or nine-and-a-half-inch Abe.

194
00:08:07,237 --> 00:08:09,280
-You can call me either one.
-[Mary Todd Lincoln] Yeah, right.

195
00:08:09,364 --> 00:08:11,449
She's loony, guys. Absolutely deranged.

196
00:08:11,533 --> 00:08:14,619
Anyway, I predict
that America's got good times ahead.

197
00:08:14,703 --> 00:08:17,872
So long as our map doesn't have
a bunch of arrows and explosions.

198
00:08:17,956 --> 00:08:21,543
[Mayor Wild West] But America did have
a bunch of arrows and explosions,

199
00:08:21,626 --> 00:08:24,254
and narrations by voices like this.

200
00:08:24,337 --> 00:08:27,799
Also slow fiddle music,
which I have to play myself,

201
00:08:27,882 --> 00:08:31,636
because we blew our whole music budget
on the Moulin Rouge stuff.

202
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,847
[♪ fiddle playing poorly]

203
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:36,182
I did this on America's Got Talent

204
00:08:36,266 --> 00:08:40,019
and Howie Mandel
made wisecracks at my expense.

205
00:08:40,103 --> 00:08:45,108
Anyway, war had come,
and 600,000 brave mustaches

206
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:49,029
would be lost,
as brother marched off to fight brother.

207
00:08:49,112 --> 00:08:52,032
[♪ marching music playing]

208
00:08:52,115 --> 00:08:56,077
Hey, so the uniforms came in the mail,
and they sent one of each.

209
00:08:56,161 --> 00:08:57,162
Weird.

210
00:08:57,245 --> 00:08:58,496
Yeah, the gray ones
are from Louis Vuitton,

211
00:08:58,580 --> 00:09:01,124
and the blue ones
are from TJ Maxx, so...

212
00:09:01,708 --> 00:09:03,251
That's fine. I'll be Union.

213
00:09:03,334 --> 00:09:06,504
Cool. I like the gray because it matches
all the dead guys everywhere.

214
00:09:06,588 --> 00:09:09,674
Wish me luck.
I'm off to fight the Battle of Bull Run.

215
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:12,844
So that sucked.
Ah, well, the good news is,

216
00:09:12,927 --> 00:09:14,179
I'm staying at Bull Run,

217
00:09:14,262 --> 00:09:17,098
and there's no way there'll be
a whole second battle there.

218
00:09:18,016 --> 00:09:19,893
You're not gonna frickin' believe it.

219
00:09:22,979 --> 00:09:25,940
The arrows and explosions
are getting closer to D.C.

220
00:09:26,024 --> 00:09:27,734
We're not gonna be able
to save the Union.

221
00:09:27,817 --> 00:09:30,278
Maybe instead of fighting
to save the Union,

222
00:09:30,361 --> 00:09:32,947
we should be fighting
to end the evils of slavery

223
00:09:33,031 --> 00:09:35,158
and ensure freedom for all Americans?

224
00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:36,451
All right, I'm putting you in a home.

225
00:09:36,534 --> 00:09:38,161
This is why I sleep with guys.

226
00:09:38,244 --> 00:09:39,829
I, too, believe the aim of the war

227
00:09:39,913 --> 00:09:42,957
should be to free the slaves
and make all Americans equal.

228
00:09:43,041 --> 00:09:44,334
Thank you, Frederick Douglass.

229
00:09:44,417 --> 00:09:46,503
You're right.
Black men should be free.

230
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:48,254
That's what I'm talking about.

231
00:09:48,338 --> 00:09:50,465
And sent up to the front line as soldiers.

232
00:09:50,548 --> 00:09:51,966
-Say what now?
-Don't worry.

233
00:09:52,050 --> 00:09:54,469
You're in good hands
with General Ulysses S. Grant,

234
00:09:54,552 --> 00:09:57,138
America's most strategically
gifted alcoholic.

235
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:00,266
[slurring] The...
The South keeps looking at me.

236
00:10:00,350 --> 00:10:03,895
I swear to God,
if the South looks at me one more time,

237
00:10:03,978 --> 00:10:06,022
-I'm going down there--
-No, no, no, no. Be cool, man.

238
00:10:06,106 --> 00:10:08,024
You think you're better than me, South?

239
00:10:08,108 --> 00:10:09,901
Be cool. Be cool. We got to concentrate

240
00:10:09,984 --> 00:10:11,528
on our most important objective.

241
00:10:11,611 --> 00:10:14,030
Protecting Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

242
00:10:14,114 --> 00:10:16,574
Isn't Gettysburg
just fields and fence posts?

243
00:10:16,658 --> 00:10:19,661
Gettysburg is a cultural
and economic metropolis.

244
00:10:19,828 --> 00:10:24,040
Sacrifice every last man,
if necessary, to protect Gettysburg, P.A.

245
00:10:24,124 --> 00:10:26,751
But Seward's right. Gettysburg sucks.

246
00:10:26,835 --> 00:10:29,379
If you can make it there,
you'll make it anywhere.

247
00:10:29,462 --> 00:10:32,173
Gettysburg, everyone must die to save it.

248
00:10:32,257 --> 00:10:34,634
There's literally, like,
eight people in the whole town.

249
00:10:34,717 --> 00:10:35,969
We're not gonna argue this further!

250
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:38,346
I'm late for my cuddle nap
with Joshua Speed,

251
00:10:38,429 --> 00:10:40,014
who everyone should
go ahead and Google.

252
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:42,976
-This is fine.
-It's fine.

253
00:10:43,059 --> 00:10:44,894
I just can't afford
my own mattress is all.

254
00:10:44,978 --> 00:10:48,940
Mattresses cost, like, a billion dollars,
'cause it's olden times.

255
00:10:54,028 --> 00:10:56,197
This conflict keeps dragging on,
am I right?

256
00:10:56,281 --> 00:10:58,324
I tell you,
you put the Civil War on ABC,

257
00:10:58,408 --> 00:11:00,243
-it'll be canceled in 13 weeks.
-[crowd laughing]

258
00:11:00,326 --> 00:11:03,496
[Mayor Wild West] Now,
that Confederate recruit we saw earlier,

259
00:11:03,580 --> 00:11:06,958
he went on to be a stage actor,
based in D.C.

260
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:09,169
So clearly, his career sucked.

261
00:11:09,252 --> 00:11:11,963
But then he booked
the Gettysburg cemetery gig.

262
00:11:12,046 --> 00:11:15,383
Finally, the big break
for John Wilkes Booth.

263
00:11:15,466 --> 00:11:17,135
Civil War saves 70 slaves.

264
00:11:17,218 --> 00:11:20,763
-Civil War saves 70 slaves. Civil war--
-Excuse me, Mr. Booth?

265
00:11:20,847 --> 00:11:22,807
Ah, yes, that is how
I'm listed in the program.

266
00:11:22,891 --> 00:11:24,809
But I was hoping to use my full name,

267
00:11:24,893 --> 00:11:26,853
John Wilkes Booth Romijn Stamos.

268
00:11:26,936 --> 00:11:30,106
-Yeah, well, sorry, but we're bumping you.
-What? Why?

269
00:11:30,190 --> 00:11:31,608
President Lincoln just showed up.

270
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:33,610
He wants to workshop some new material.

271
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:34,861
[growls]

272
00:11:34,944 --> 00:11:38,156
Okay, so "Fourscore
and seven years ago--"

273
00:11:38,239 --> 00:11:39,449
Wait, wait. What... What's that mean?

274
00:11:39,532 --> 00:11:40,867
A score is 20 years.

275
00:11:40,950 --> 00:11:42,619
So just say 87 years ago.

276
00:11:42,702 --> 00:11:43,703
I like it this way.

277
00:11:43,786 --> 00:11:45,622
You're gonna lose everybody
from the first line.

278
00:11:45,705 --> 00:11:47,207
They're all doing math in their heads.

279
00:11:47,290 --> 00:11:48,458
-It's fine.
-It's not fine.

280
00:11:48,541 --> 00:11:49,709
You're here to boost morale.

281
00:11:49,792 --> 00:11:53,296
This is like the opposite. You're giving
them algebra homework. Here, try this.

282
00:11:53,379 --> 00:11:57,008
"Sorry, I got here late.
I couldn't find the Gettysburg address."

283
00:11:57,091 --> 00:11:59,010
[laughs]

284
00:11:59,093 --> 00:12:00,136
Yeah. I don't know.

285
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:03,514
Oh, come on. It's perfect. Open with
a huge joke. Boom, now you got 'em.

286
00:12:03,598 --> 00:12:04,933
Hey, hey, bub.

287
00:12:05,016 --> 00:12:06,559
You can't just go bumping people.

288
00:12:06,643 --> 00:12:08,269
I... I don't know
what you're talking about.

289
00:12:08,394 --> 00:12:10,521
Forget him.
He's just some butt-hurt actor.

290
00:12:10,605 --> 00:12:12,523
Look, whatever this is about, I'm sorry.

291
00:12:12,607 --> 00:12:13,775
I respect actors.

292
00:12:13,858 --> 00:12:15,985
-How about you give me a headshot?
-[Chris] Foreshadowing.

293
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:18,279
[Bob] Now let's have
a big hand for Abe Lincoln.

294
00:12:18,363 --> 00:12:19,364
[Lincoln] Thanks, Bob.

295
00:12:19,447 --> 00:12:22,158
[Bob] Now, I understand
Mary Todd's here today, 'cause we all know

296
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:24,118
Lincoln doesn't go anywhere
without his beard.

297
00:12:24,202 --> 00:12:25,828
-[audience laughing]
-[Lincoln laughs] Oh, Bob.

298
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:31,292
[Mayor Wild West] Finally, in 1865,
the southern capital of Richmond fell.

299
00:12:31,376 --> 00:12:35,004
War is over, Grant. You've got to go to
Appomattox and meet the Southern leader.

300
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:36,547
-You know the guy?
-General Lee.

301
00:12:36,631 --> 00:12:38,216
All right, do some research on him first.

302
00:12:38,299 --> 00:12:40,593
Oh, I know the guy
backwards and forwards. General Lee.

303
00:12:40,677 --> 00:12:42,428
Right. But I need you
to know him specifically.

304
00:12:42,512 --> 00:12:44,222
I do know him specifically, General Lee.

305
00:12:44,305 --> 00:12:45,723
-I... Look, you know the guy?
-Yep.

306
00:12:45,807 --> 00:12:46,849
-You know him generally?
-Yep.

307
00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:48,351
You got to know him more than generally.

308
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:49,477
Know who more than General Lee?

309
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:51,354
The Southern leader.
The guy you know generally.

310
00:12:51,437 --> 00:12:53,314
That's right.
I do know him, very well. General Lee.

-I... That's the problem.
-What's the problem?

312

You say you know him generally.

00:12:56,526 --> 00:12:58,569
-I do.
-I need you to be an expert on the guy.

-I am an expert on him.
-Are you just--

315

I'm friends with the guy.
We fought in the Mexican War together.

I studied his every move.

There is no one on the planet
who knows him better than I do.

318
00:13:06,286 --> 00:13:09,122
Okay, just to be sure,
you are an expert on the Southern leader.

319
00:13:09,205 --> 00:13:10,248
Completely. Totally.

Absolutely. General Lee.

00:13:13,668 --> 00:13:16,713
[Mayor Wild West] In our nation,
it was a difficult time politically.

323
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:19,048
But a simpler time, comedically.

324
00:13:19,590 --> 00:13:22,593
The fighting was done,
and no more would Americans

325
00:13:22,677 --> 00:13:26,806
wage civil war until 2028, probably.

Hey, how about you
just go by Mary Lincoln, huh?

But Todd is my family name.

and Booth would shout the motto

336
00:13:50,121 --> 00:13:52,498

Well, here's a joke for you.

Churchill, how's things in England? Good?

No, it's awful. We're getting bombed

They're blitzkrieging through Europe.

00:20:33,065 --> 00:20:36,026
and heartaches that comprise
our shared human story.

463
00:20:36,610 --> 00:20:39,905
Also, you might receive
an email from the Quahog County Courthouse

464
00:20:39,989 --> 00:20:43,325
confirming that I provided
volunteer educational services.

465
00:20:43,409 --> 00:20:45,286
If you could just go ahead
and click the link and fill out

466
00:20:45,369 --> 00:20:47,580
the short web form,
I'd really appreciate it.

467
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:50,249

So, turns out you can
legally buy Jenna Ortega

469
00:20:53,085 --> 00:20:54,545
as many new bed sheets as you want,

470
00:20:54,628 --> 00:20:56,756
you just can't deliver them in person.

471
00:20:56,839 --> 00:20:59,300
So we all learned something this week.

472
00:20:59,383 --> 00:21:00,468
Sleep tight, Jenna.

00:21:00,968 --> 00:21:02,970
