1
00:00:03,916 --> 00:00:05,744
Clarence.

2
00:00:05,744 --> 00:00:07,137
Here.
Tiffany.

3
00:00:07,137 --> 00:00:08,486
Present.
Raheem.

4
00:00:08,486 --> 00:00:10,053
Mimimimimi.

5
00:00:11,924 --> 00:00:13,100
What was that, Raheem?

6
00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:15,145
I don't think that was
even English.

7
00:00:15,145 --> 00:00:17,713
But as a polyglot, I am open
to expression in any language.

8
00:00:17,713 --> 00:00:19,323
Mr. C, you must be moss,

9
00:00:19,323 --> 00:00:21,804
'cause clearly,
you live under a rock.

10
00:00:21,804 --> 00:00:23,545
Well, I actually
live over an ALDI,

11
00:00:23,545 --> 00:00:26,287
but, uh, wha-- what do you--
what are you talking about?

12
00:00:26,287 --> 00:00:28,028
It's "The Silly Sock Show."

13
00:00:28,028 --> 00:00:30,639
You know, it's a family of
socks, and they do funny stuff.

14
00:00:30,639 --> 00:00:32,162
It's everywhere.

15
00:00:34,338 --> 00:00:36,775
This is Jim, the gym sock.
He sings.

16
00:00:36,775 --> 00:00:39,169
That's Toeseph and--Toesha.

17
00:00:39,169 --> 00:00:40,518
They're twins.

18
00:00:44,044 --> 00:00:46,307
I don't get it.
It's just a bunch of socks

19
00:00:46,307 --> 00:00:47,351
saying gibberish.

20
00:00:47,351 --> 00:00:49,658
I'll show him.
My sock's already off.

21
00:00:49,658 --> 00:00:51,790
Mi-mi-mi-mi-mimimi.

22
00:00:54,184 --> 00:00:55,794
That is spot-on Toesha.

23
00:00:55,794 --> 00:00:58,362
Wait, what?
You know this sock show?

24
00:00:58,362 --> 00:01:00,364
Of course.
I've survived every trend--

25
00:01:00,364 --> 00:01:03,150
"Spongebob," "Adventure Time,"
Gangsta "Looney Tunes."

26
00:01:03,150 --> 00:01:04,716
Now there's a silly sock show.

27
00:01:04,716 --> 00:01:06,631
I speak fluent Sock.
Watch this.

28
00:01:06,631 --> 00:01:09,547
Mi-mi-mmi-mi-Mi-mimimi.

29
00:01:10,896 --> 00:01:13,334
Hey, what did--
What did he say?

30
00:01:13,334 --> 00:01:16,554
He said, "This white fool don't
know his socks are mismatched."

31
00:01:16,554 --> 00:01:18,034
Shameful.

32
00:01:18,034 --> 00:01:21,211
Mimimimimimimi.

33
00:01:34,181 --> 00:01:35,530
I hope this isn't
another assembly

34
00:01:35,530 --> 00:01:37,271
about
a new e-mail system.

35
00:01:37,271 --> 00:01:40,187
I am not doing
two-step verification.

36
00:01:40,187 --> 00:01:41,623
They can just hack me.

37
00:01:41,623 --> 00:01:43,407
They did hack you.

38
00:01:43,407 --> 00:01:45,192
Remember when your account
sent out all that pornography?

39
00:01:45,192 --> 00:01:46,584
I do not.

40
00:01:46,584 --> 00:01:47,846
Okay.

41
00:01:47,846 --> 00:01:50,197
Hey. Is that seat taken?

42
00:01:50,197 --> 00:01:52,199
'Cause I can stand.
It builds chair-acter.

43
00:01:54,766 --> 00:01:56,638
It's been a couple of days
since the teachers' conference

44
00:01:56,638 --> 00:02:01,251
where Gregory and I...
got caught up in a moment,

45
00:02:01,251 --> 00:02:02,644
which was nothing.

46
00:02:02,644 --> 00:02:03,906
But now, you know,
we are so good.

47
00:02:03,906 --> 00:02:06,038
It's, like, not weird at all.

48
00:02:08,432 --> 00:02:10,869
It's actually not taken,
but it could be taken.

49
00:02:10,869 --> 00:02:12,654
By you, if--
if you wanted to take it.

50
00:02:12,654 --> 00:02:13,655
Yeah, 'cause
there's nowhere else to sit.

51
00:02:13,655 --> 00:02:14,873
So, yeah. Right.

52
00:02:14,873 --> 00:02:15,831
- Okay. Okay, so.
- So that's, um...

53
00:02:15,831 --> 00:02:16,745
- Sit down, Janine.
- Okay.

54
00:02:16,745 --> 00:02:18,399
Everyone settle down.

55
00:02:18,399 --> 00:02:19,661
I have a very important
announcement to make

56
00:02:19,661 --> 00:02:21,053
in a short amount of time.

57
00:02:21,053 --> 00:02:22,272
My Postmates
is around the corner.

58
00:02:22,272 --> 00:02:24,231
It's about damn time,
José L.

59
00:02:24,231 --> 00:02:26,015
Who are you again?

60
00:02:26,015 --> 00:02:28,278
They're Mural Arts--
Mural Arts Philadelphia.

61
00:02:28,278 --> 00:02:30,280
Oh, right.
Welcome Mural Arts,

62
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,891
who we like
and are excited for.

63
00:02:32,891 --> 00:02:34,676
Right?
Yeah.

64
00:02:34,676 --> 00:02:37,287
So, Mural Arts has a program
that goes from school to school,

65
00:02:37,287 --> 00:02:39,420
creating these amazing,

66
00:02:39,420 --> 00:02:41,378
inspiring murals
with the students.

67
00:02:41,378 --> 00:02:44,686
I've been applying for years,
but they are finally here now,

68
00:02:44,686 --> 00:02:46,688
and best of all,
the mural is going

69
00:02:46,688 --> 00:02:48,255
right outside my classroom.

70
00:02:48,255 --> 00:02:50,909
We're so excited
to be at Abbott.

71
00:02:50,909 --> 00:02:54,391
We'll be here for one week.

72
00:02:54,391 --> 00:02:57,046
These murals
are about legacy.

73
00:02:57,046 --> 00:02:58,395
And we're excited to work
with you all to figure out

74
00:02:58,395 --> 00:03:02,747
what represents legacy
for Abbott Elementary.

75
00:03:02,747 --> 00:03:04,488
See? You guys get to talk
with your classmates

76
00:03:04,488 --> 00:03:05,620
and put on
for the school.

77
00:03:05,620 --> 00:03:06,882
Can't wait, Mr. C.

78
00:03:06,882 --> 00:03:08,927
Alright.

79
00:03:08,927 --> 00:03:10,364
You know, if y'all need
to warm up,

80
00:03:10,364 --> 00:03:11,713
my apartment could use
a fresh coat of Benjamin Moore.

81
00:03:11,713 --> 00:03:13,367
Uh, we only paint murals.

82
00:03:13,367 --> 00:03:16,326
Okay, then paint
a eggshell blizzard on my wall.

83
00:03:17,936 --> 00:03:20,374
Oh, hey, you.

84
00:03:22,027 --> 00:03:24,421
Damn. You in the classroom
right next to him,

85
00:03:24,421 --> 00:03:25,727
<i>and</i> you dating
his best friend?

86
00:03:25,727 --> 00:03:28,164
Erica, there are
children around.

87
00:03:28,164 --> 00:03:30,558
Anyway, I think I'm going
to break up with Mo.

88
00:03:30,558 --> 00:03:32,168
Oh, to get with Gregory.

89
00:03:32,168 --> 00:03:33,865
No. No, no, no.
No, no.

90
00:03:33,865 --> 00:03:35,954
No, it's just that, you know,
the kiss made me think

91
00:03:35,954 --> 00:03:38,087
if I'm kissing other guys,
then how much do

92
00:03:38,087 --> 00:03:40,176
I really want to be
with Mo? Right?
Mm.

93
00:03:40,176 --> 00:03:41,308
So, I'm gonna tell him
everything that happened--

94
00:03:41,308 --> 00:03:43,266
Ah, ah, ah.
What are you talking about?

95
00:03:43,266 --> 00:03:44,876
Mo is not your husband.

96
00:03:44,876 --> 00:03:46,530
All he did was take you out
on a couple dates

97
00:03:46,530 --> 00:03:49,359
and buy you a reasonably priced
bag that you don't even like.

98
00:03:49,359 --> 00:03:51,492
But I do, and my birthday
is coming up, so...

99
00:03:51,492 --> 00:03:55,409
Look, you are in the clear for
some extracurricular activities.

100
00:03:55,409 --> 00:03:58,107
I just feel like I owe him
an honest conversation.

101
00:03:58,107 --> 00:04:00,196
You don't owe him details.

102
00:04:00,196 --> 00:04:02,546
Look, all that's going to do
is hurt his feelings

103
00:04:02,546 --> 00:04:04,940
and potentially ruin
his friendship with Gregory.

104
00:04:04,940 --> 00:04:07,203
Maybe you're right.

105
00:04:07,203 --> 00:04:09,336
Are you two done gossiping?
Can we go now?

106
00:04:09,336 --> 00:04:12,252
Oh! Keep me updated.

107
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:14,471
This is the type of excitement
I need in my life.

108
00:04:14,471 --> 00:04:16,691
You a dork,
but you messy, girl.

109
00:04:20,564 --> 00:04:22,610
Barb. Oh, my God.
This e-mail I just got.

110
00:04:22,610 --> 00:04:24,612
No, not the porno again.

111
00:04:24,612 --> 00:04:26,918
No, I was looking into
what Kristen Marie said

112
00:04:26,918 --> 00:04:28,833
about Legendary trying
to turn Abbott charter,

113
00:04:28,833 --> 00:04:31,053
and she was right.
There's an online petition

114
00:04:31,053 --> 00:04:32,402
a couple
of our parents started

115
00:04:32,402 --> 00:04:36,363
to "make Abbott part
of Legendary Charter."

116
00:04:36,363 --> 00:04:39,801
- The audacity!
- Mm-hmm.

117
00:04:39,801 --> 00:04:42,020
Now, what would make them
do something like that?

118
00:04:42,020 --> 00:04:44,196
Well, they probably got
schmoozed by Legendary.

119
00:04:44,196 --> 00:04:45,589
They have a pretty good rep.

120
00:04:45,589 --> 00:04:48,897
There's got to be something
we can do to stop this.

121
00:04:48,897 --> 00:04:50,551
There's a phone number

122
00:04:50,551 --> 00:04:53,249
that we can call
to talk about the petition.

123
00:04:53,249 --> 00:04:54,729
Well, maybe we should call.

124
00:04:54,729 --> 00:04:56,948
You know, pretend like
we're interested parents.

125
00:04:56,948 --> 00:04:58,472
Yeah, I th--
You know, I should do it,

126
00:04:58,472 --> 00:05:00,256
'cause I do the best
character work, like,

127
00:05:00,256 --> 00:05:01,518
"Hey, youse guys,

128
00:05:01,518 --> 00:05:04,826
we're interested
in going Charter over here."

129
00:05:04,826 --> 00:05:06,175
Okay, Robert De No-No.

130
00:05:08,003 --> 00:05:09,352
Maybe I should do it.

131
00:05:11,615 --> 00:05:13,269
Oh.

132
00:05:13,269 --> 00:05:14,836
'Ello, dearie.

133
00:05:14,836 --> 00:05:16,620
Yes.

134
00:05:16,620 --> 00:05:19,623
You know, I'm interested
in receiving some information

135
00:05:19,623 --> 00:05:22,931
about turning
Abbott charter.

136
00:05:22,931 --> 00:05:24,976
Yes.

137
00:05:24,976 --> 00:05:27,109
It's working.

138
00:05:27,109 --> 00:05:29,285
Yeah, man. I said go.

139
00:05:29,285 --> 00:05:31,809
You just go and send me
the information like that?

140
00:05:31,809 --> 00:05:33,985
Bye-bye.

141
00:05:33,985 --> 00:05:36,423
I'm not going to lie, Barb,
that was pretty fricking good.

142
00:05:36,423 --> 00:05:38,250
Barb, I had no idea
you were this talented.

143
00:05:38,250 --> 00:05:39,469
You a damn genius.

144
00:05:39,469 --> 00:05:41,471
We are going to need
all the genius we can get,

145
00:05:41,471 --> 00:05:46,128
because the damn Legendary
is coming for us.

146
00:05:46,128 --> 00:05:47,608
Legendary is coming for us.

147
00:05:47,608 --> 00:05:49,610
We got it. Yeah.

148
00:05:49,610 --> 00:05:50,437
Janine. Oh, good.

149
00:05:50,437 --> 00:05:54,092
Get off my floors.

150
00:05:54,092 --> 00:05:55,920
My students
are with Mural Arts,

151
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,488
deciding their legacy,
like as we speak.

152
00:05:58,488 --> 00:06:00,272
Talk about the room
where it happens.

153
00:06:00,272 --> 00:06:01,448
Oh, wow.

154
00:06:01,448 --> 00:06:03,145
Can't wait to see
what they pick.

155
00:06:03,145 --> 00:06:04,189
Wait, why aren't you in there
with them?

156
00:06:04,189 --> 00:06:05,495
Well, I removed myself

157
00:06:05,495 --> 00:06:07,802
because I don't want
to influence their decision.

158
00:06:07,802 --> 00:06:09,804
I still remember the mural
we did on my school.

159
00:06:09,804 --> 00:06:11,327
Think about it every time
I drive by.

160
00:06:11,327 --> 00:06:13,155
Oh. Yeah, exactly.
See?

161
00:06:13,155 --> 00:06:15,810
You were a part of a legacy
that will not be forgotten.

162
00:06:15,810 --> 00:06:17,899
Legacy is important.
That's why my picture's

163
00:06:17,899 --> 00:06:19,466
hanging on the Wall of Flame
for eating

164
00:06:19,466 --> 00:06:21,685
50 spicy chicken wings
at Wing Bowl.

165
00:06:21,685 --> 00:06:24,166
Wait a second.
That is you up there?

166
00:06:24,166 --> 00:06:25,689
I always thought that
was Michael Jordan.

167
00:06:25,689 --> 00:06:27,343
I get that a lot.

168
00:06:27,343 --> 00:06:29,127
The only difference between
that MJ and this MJ

169
00:06:29,127 --> 00:06:31,913
is I can hit a curveball.

170
00:06:31,913 --> 00:06:34,306
Mr. Hill, your students
have made a decision.

171
00:06:34,306 --> 00:06:36,526
Remember this moment--Oh, oh.

172
00:06:36,526 --> 00:06:38,310
Because history
certainly will.

173
00:06:40,530 --> 00:06:42,314
Impressive.

174
00:06:42,314 --> 00:06:44,273
We had a great discussion.

175
00:06:44,273 --> 00:06:46,188
Lots of incredible ideas
being thrown around

176
00:06:46,188 --> 00:06:47,624
about what they want
their legacy to be.

177
00:06:47,624 --> 00:06:50,366
And we finally landed
on something pretty special.

178
00:06:50,366 --> 00:06:52,499
Ooh, let me guess.
John Coltrane?

179
00:06:52,499 --> 00:06:53,848
Will Smith?

180
00:06:53,848 --> 00:06:55,545
Oh, my God.
It's not me, is it?

181
00:07:07,775 --> 00:07:09,472
Okay, yeah.

182
00:07:09,472 --> 00:07:11,343
You got me.

183
00:07:11,343 --> 00:07:12,606
Boo-yah.

184
00:07:12,606 --> 00:07:14,521
Wow.
I love a good prank.

185
00:07:14,521 --> 00:07:16,348
Seriously, though,
what, um...

186
00:07:16,348 --> 00:07:17,741
What did you decide?

187
00:07:17,741 --> 00:07:20,875
Can you not see those socks?

188
00:07:20,875 --> 00:07:23,355
This is
what everyone wanted?

189
00:07:23,355 --> 00:07:25,575
Yes.

190
00:07:25,575 --> 00:07:26,750
Finally, a voice of reason.

191
00:07:26,750 --> 00:07:28,186
Clarence, talk to me.

192
00:07:28,186 --> 00:07:30,711
Mr. C,
on behalf of all the class,

193
00:07:30,711 --> 00:07:32,147
I'd like to say...

194
00:07:32,147 --> 00:07:34,889
Mimimimimimimiiii.

195
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,765
Okay, I am processing this.

196
00:07:41,765 --> 00:07:43,593
It's just
that we came up

197
00:07:43,593 --> 00:07:46,030
with so many great ideas
in the room before.

198
00:07:46,030 --> 00:07:47,379
So I'm a little thrown off here.

199
00:07:47,379 --> 00:07:49,425
Did they even mention legacy?

200
00:07:49,425 --> 00:07:52,559
They did. Then someone called
legacy "leg-assy."

201
00:07:52,559 --> 00:07:54,038
Then everyone laughed.

202
00:07:54,038 --> 00:07:55,649
But then they came up
with the sock show idea,

203
00:07:55,649 --> 00:07:57,477
and that seemed
to engage them the most.

204
00:07:57,477 --> 00:08:01,350
Could you possibly give us one
more day to land on a subject?

205
00:08:01,350 --> 00:08:03,570
Sure, but remember,
we leave Friday.

206
00:08:03,570 --> 00:08:05,528
We're on a strict schedule.

207
00:08:05,528 --> 00:08:07,399
The arts aren't going
to mural themselves.

208
00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:09,401
Mm, well said.
Thank you.

209
00:08:09,401 --> 00:08:10,620
I appreciate it.
Of course.

210
00:08:10,620 --> 00:08:13,014
Of-- Oh, by the way,
they showed me the show.

211
00:08:13,014 --> 00:08:14,624
It's hilarious.

212
00:08:14,624 --> 00:08:19,107
You see that one where Toeseph
said, "Mi? Mi mimimi Mimi"?

213
00:08:20,935 --> 00:08:22,502
What won't he say?

214
00:08:24,852 --> 00:08:27,594
We need to show Legendary
that we mean business.

215
00:08:27,594 --> 00:08:29,857
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
- There's power in numbers.

216
00:08:29,857 --> 00:08:33,251
I need to write my congregation
for a letter of support.

217
00:08:33,251 --> 00:08:37,081
Or I could write a note to
Draemond, the untraceable kind.

218
00:08:37,081 --> 00:08:39,127
Get my kids to cut out
letters from a magazine.

219
00:08:39,127 --> 00:08:40,520
That'll be fun.

220
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,651
You know,
me and Iggy been re-watching

221
00:08:41,651 --> 00:08:43,479
those "Star Wars" movies,
and resisting

222
00:08:43,479 --> 00:08:45,525
a massive evil empire
seems like a lot.

223
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:46,874
Are we positive we don't want
to be a charter school?

224
00:08:46,874 --> 00:08:48,702
Because I don't get
what's so bad.

225
00:08:48,702 --> 00:08:51,661
They don't even require all
their teachers be certified.

226
00:08:51,661 --> 00:08:53,315
Yet they take our funding.

227
00:08:53,315 --> 00:08:56,274
Not to mention, the private
money from wealthy donors

228
00:08:56,274 --> 00:08:57,711
with ulterior motives.

229
00:08:57,711 --> 00:08:59,321
Hello.
Weird cash swirling around?

230
00:08:59,321 --> 00:09:00,888
Don't threaten me
with a good time.

231
00:09:00,888 --> 00:09:02,977
Oh, you know, not every student
in the neighborhood

232
00:09:02,977 --> 00:09:06,067
could count on attending Abbott
if we turned charter.

233
00:09:06,067 --> 00:09:08,504
Now, what if only half
of these students

234
00:09:08,504 --> 00:09:11,507
got to come here
next year?
Which half?

235
00:09:11,507 --> 00:09:14,641
Ava, charter schools write
your lesson plans for you.

236
00:09:14,641 --> 00:09:16,686
Well, I don't ever plan
on reading those,

237
00:09:16,686 --> 00:09:18,645
- but that sounds great.
- It's not!

238
00:09:18,645 --> 00:09:20,429
You lose
all your individuality.

239
00:09:20,429 --> 00:09:22,213
Kristen Marie told me
that they sit there

240
00:09:22,213 --> 00:09:24,694
and make sure that you use
their exact words.

241
00:09:24,694 --> 00:09:25,869
Well, you two need to work
on your pitch,

242
00:09:25,869 --> 00:09:27,262
because it sounds
like Abbott

243
00:09:27,262 --> 00:09:29,003
might be on the cusp
of a glow-up.

244
00:09:30,352 --> 00:09:33,355
Oh. He lives.

245
00:09:33,355 --> 00:09:35,531
Hey, yeah, man.
I'm still kicking.

246
00:09:35,531 --> 00:09:37,838
Tell that to the group chat,
bro. You been MIA.

247
00:09:37,838 --> 00:09:39,317
That's because you create
a new group chat

248
00:09:39,317 --> 00:09:40,710
every time you can't find
the old one.

249
00:09:40,710 --> 00:09:42,843
I can't keep up
with all 57.

250
00:09:42,843 --> 00:09:45,715
Whatever. I'm just here
to surprise Janine with lunch.

251
00:09:45,715 --> 00:09:47,412
Hopefully
she likes surprises.

252
00:09:47,412 --> 00:09:48,805
And lunch.

253
00:09:48,805 --> 00:09:51,112
Me and Maurice are fine.
We're totally fine.

254
00:09:51,112 --> 00:09:53,114
I mean, we're friends.
Why wouldn't we be?

255
00:09:53,114 --> 00:09:55,072
That wasn't
an awkward interaction.

256
00:09:55,072 --> 00:09:58,380
You're awkward.

257
00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:00,904
Oh, well, hey, Maurice. Hello.

258
00:10:00,904 --> 00:10:03,733
I wasn't, uh, expecting to
see you at my place of work.

259
00:10:03,733 --> 00:10:05,343
Your MoDates has arrived.

260
00:10:05,343 --> 00:10:06,736
- Oh.
- Get it?

261
00:10:06,736 --> 00:10:09,521
It's like Postmates,
but I'm Mo and we're dating.

262
00:10:09,521 --> 00:10:12,046
Oh.
Aww, thank you.

263
00:10:12,046 --> 00:10:13,613
Five stars.

264
00:10:15,179 --> 00:10:18,748
So, um, you want to
hang out tomorrow?

265
00:10:18,748 --> 00:10:20,315
Um, yeah.
100%.

266
00:10:20,315 --> 00:10:22,143
I would love to. Yeah.

267
00:10:22,143 --> 00:10:24,536
Maybe we can go someplace
quiet, where--

268
00:10:24,536 --> 00:10:26,930
where we could talk. Wow.

269
00:10:26,930 --> 00:10:29,411
You trying to go
to Bone Town?

270
00:10:29,411 --> 00:10:30,934
Philly's Bone Town?
The rib joint.

271
00:10:30,934 --> 00:10:33,371
Oh, yes.
Yes, yes, yes.

272
00:10:33,371 --> 00:10:34,764
I-- I would love to go
to Bone Town with you.

273
00:10:34,764 --> 00:10:36,723
Cool.
Alright.

274
00:10:38,942 --> 00:10:42,859
Okay. Today is the day
that we pick a meaningful,

275
00:10:42,859 --> 00:10:45,166
compelling mural
that you will remember

276
00:10:45,166 --> 00:10:46,776
for the rest of your life.

277
00:10:46,776 --> 00:10:47,864
What was wrong with
"The Silly Sock Show"?

278
00:10:47,864 --> 00:10:49,387
Yeah.

279
00:10:49,387 --> 00:10:51,607
Alright, class, uh,
how about we go on

280
00:10:51,607 --> 00:10:53,783
an imaginary ride
with your boy?

281
00:10:53,783 --> 00:10:55,306
It's 20 years from now.

282
00:10:55,306 --> 00:10:57,395
Your boo-thing
is sitting shotgun,

283
00:10:57,395 --> 00:10:58,745
and your little one's
in a car seat

284
00:10:58,745 --> 00:11:00,572
that you have trouble
strapping in.

285
00:11:00,572 --> 00:11:02,836
You pull up to Abbott,
and you look out the window.

286
00:11:02,836 --> 00:11:04,533
Wait. I thought the mural
was going to be inside.

287
00:11:04,533 --> 00:11:06,970
Why am I spending my time
cruising by a school?

288
00:11:06,970 --> 00:11:08,232
Yeah.
That's creepy.

289
00:11:08,232 --> 00:11:09,581
Okay. You're--
You're inside,

290
00:11:09,581 --> 00:11:10,974
dropping
your little one off.

291
00:11:10,974 --> 00:11:12,541
I'm not sending my kids here.

292
00:11:12,541 --> 00:11:14,935
Yeah. What has gone so wrong
in my life

293
00:11:14,935 --> 00:11:16,327
that I have to send
my kids to Abbott?

294
00:11:16,327 --> 00:11:17,589
- Mm-hmm.
- Look, okay,

295
00:11:17,589 --> 00:11:19,853
you are an adult here,

296
00:11:19,853 --> 00:11:23,204
speaking for Career Day,
and you see a mural--

297
00:11:23,204 --> 00:11:26,816
the mural you worked so hard on
with your classmates.

298
00:11:26,816 --> 00:11:28,644
Your legacy.

299
00:11:28,644 --> 00:11:30,428
Now, in your mind's eye,

300
00:11:30,428 --> 00:11:33,605
is that mural really
the Silly Sock family?

301
00:11:33,605 --> 00:11:35,259
- Of course.
- Yes.

302
00:11:35,259 --> 00:11:39,002
All I am saying is you
like "The Silly Sock Show" now,

303
00:11:39,002 --> 00:11:42,571
but you might not even
remember it in 20 years.

304
00:11:42,571 --> 00:11:44,225
But you told us that
we're all going to be dead

305
00:11:44,225 --> 00:11:45,530
in 20 years
from climate change.

306
00:11:45,530 --> 00:11:47,141
I said, "Unless we act now."

307
00:11:47,141 --> 00:11:49,447
We're in school now.
How are we supposed to act?

308
00:11:49,447 --> 00:11:52,363
Look, w-we are not doing
"The Silly Sock Show," okay?

309
00:11:52,363 --> 00:11:54,888
You came up with a bunch
of other ideas.

310
00:11:54,888 --> 00:11:56,846
Pick one of those.
Any of those.

311
00:11:56,846 --> 00:11:59,066
Mimimi.

312
00:11:59,066 --> 00:12:02,852
Mimimimimi.

313
00:12:15,517 --> 00:12:17,693
Hey, co-worker.
Hey.

314
00:12:17,693 --> 00:12:20,783
So, I ran into Maurice earlier,
and it's bothering me,

315
00:12:20,783 --> 00:12:23,699
what happened
at the teachers' conference.

316
00:12:23,699 --> 00:12:25,179
I feel like I've been
a bad friend to both of you.

317
00:12:25,179 --> 00:12:26,963
There's no need
to feel bad.

318
00:12:26,963 --> 00:12:29,923
Look, even without what,
you know, happened,

319
00:12:29,923 --> 00:12:32,926
something still wasn't
quite clicking with Maurice.

320
00:12:32,926 --> 00:12:35,493
I mean, if it was,
then I wouldn't have...

321
00:12:35,493 --> 00:12:38,932
- kissed you, right?
- Right.

322
00:12:38,932 --> 00:12:42,631
I'm going to go to Bone Town
with Mo,

323
00:12:42,631 --> 00:12:45,939
and then I'm going to
break up with him.

324
00:12:45,939 --> 00:12:48,332
Wow. Okay, well, that feels like
too much information

325
00:12:48,332 --> 00:12:49,899
and also kind of cruel.

326
00:12:49,899 --> 00:12:51,509
I know, but I figured
if I got to do this,

327
00:12:51,509 --> 00:12:54,643
I might as well be full of meat
and covered in sauce.

328
00:12:57,777 --> 00:12:59,953
Oh, you mean the, um--
the barbecue restaurant.

329
00:12:59,953 --> 00:13:02,303
Yeah.
Oh. Oh. Okay.

330
00:13:02,303 --> 00:13:03,913
Um, well,
Maurice is still my friend,

331
00:13:03,913 --> 00:13:07,047
so I should be the one
to tell him about the kiss,

332
00:13:07,047 --> 00:13:08,657
since you're going to
break up with him, anyway.

333
00:13:08,657 --> 00:13:10,311
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Like...

334
00:13:10,311 --> 00:13:11,747
I was talking to Erica,
and she said

335
00:13:11,747 --> 00:13:13,836
I really shouldn't
get into details.

336
00:13:13,836 --> 00:13:15,577
Well, I still want to be
cool with Mo.

337
00:13:15,577 --> 00:13:17,884
I don't want this weighing
on my conscience.

338
00:13:17,884 --> 00:13:20,887
Well, if he's going to
find out, then I should
be the one to tell him.

339
00:13:20,887 --> 00:13:22,453
You didn't want to tell
him at all, and now you
want to tell him first?

340
00:13:22,453 --> 00:13:24,716
Because I didn't want
to hurt him.

341
00:13:26,806 --> 00:13:28,764
Alright, look.
I guess the only solution

342
00:13:28,764 --> 00:13:31,898
is for us to go
to Bone Town, together,

343
00:13:31,898 --> 00:13:35,292
and we apologize to him.
That's the only way.

344
00:13:35,292 --> 00:13:37,033
Fine. Together.

345
00:13:37,033 --> 00:13:38,078
Okay.

346
00:13:40,689 --> 00:13:42,256
A-ha!
Okay.

347
00:13:42,256 --> 00:13:45,563
Thank you so much
for your patience.

348
00:13:45,563 --> 00:13:48,349
Uh, my students and I
have come up with a new idea

349
00:13:48,349 --> 00:13:50,133
that will knock
your socks off.

350
00:13:52,135 --> 00:13:53,963
Did you get those paint samples
that I sent you for my bedroom?

351
00:13:53,963 --> 00:13:55,356
I'm thinking sexy,
but dangerous.

352
00:13:55,356 --> 00:13:58,272
Again, uh, we do not do
private residences.

353
00:13:58,272 --> 00:13:59,490
We're a non-profit.

354
00:13:59,490 --> 00:14:00,970
Who said
I was gon' pay you?

355
00:14:00,970 --> 00:14:05,975
Our mural is a sycamore,
with each root representing

356
00:14:05,975 --> 00:14:07,977
a different part
of West Philly,

357
00:14:07,977 --> 00:14:11,198
coming together to form
our sturdy community.

358
00:14:11,198 --> 00:14:14,070
Great. Let me gather my crew.
We'll get right to work.

359
00:14:14,070 --> 00:14:15,332
Why y'all so sad?

360
00:14:15,332 --> 00:14:16,856
Wait, is it Monday?

361
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,596
We wanted to paint
"The Silly Sock Show,"

362
00:14:18,596 --> 00:14:21,077
but Mr. C
said we couldn't.

363
00:14:21,077 --> 00:14:23,993
Okay, um, when I said the kids
and I came up with a new idea,

364
00:14:23,993 --> 00:14:28,171
I will admit I-- I steered them
in a certain direction.

365
00:14:28,171 --> 00:14:30,652
Well, if it ain't the white man
making decisions for everybody.

366
00:14:30,652 --> 00:14:32,306
So, that's not how
this works.

367
00:14:32,306 --> 00:14:35,135
The goal of Mural Arts
is to do it with the kids

368
00:14:35,135 --> 00:14:36,876
and have them be
the drivers of the mural.

369
00:14:36,876 --> 00:14:38,529
Yeah, no, yeah.
We were all driving.

370
00:14:38,529 --> 00:14:40,140
Well, they were in the car.

371
00:14:40,140 --> 00:14:41,184
Not by choice.

372
00:14:41,184 --> 00:14:42,794
Dang, Jacob.
I thought you thought

373
00:14:42,794 --> 00:14:44,013
you was
one of the good ones.

374
00:14:44,013 --> 00:14:45,406
I am. I am.

375
00:14:45,406 --> 00:14:46,973
We can't,
in good conscience,

376
00:14:46,973 --> 00:14:49,018
paint a mural the kids
aren't fully behind.

377
00:14:49,018 --> 00:14:50,759
Unfortunately, since you
and your students

378
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:52,804
can't come up with an idea,
we're out of time.

379
00:14:52,804 --> 00:14:54,023
No, no.

380
00:14:54,023 --> 00:14:55,024
We'll just come back
next year.

381
00:14:55,024 --> 00:14:56,808
We won't be here next year!

382
00:14:56,808 --> 00:14:58,810
Yeah.
Thanks a lot, Mr. Hill.

383
00:15:00,682 --> 00:15:02,858
Well, looks like your schedule
just cleared up.

384
00:15:02,858 --> 00:15:04,947
What do you think about mauve
in a vestibule?

385
00:15:06,688 --> 00:15:09,212
<i>Mimimimimi. Mimi.</i>

386
00:15:10,605 --> 00:15:12,172
I don't get it.

387
00:15:12,172 --> 00:15:14,478
This stupid show means
more to the kids than air.

388
00:15:14,478 --> 00:15:16,350
What, were you born
without a funny bone?

389
00:15:16,350 --> 00:15:19,005
It's called a humerus.
And yes.

390
00:15:19,005 --> 00:15:20,702
Why are you like this?

391
00:15:20,702 --> 00:15:23,226
Look, I loved "Ed, Edd n Eddy,"
but that was elevated.

392
00:15:23,226 --> 00:15:25,054
You know, there are
entire subreddits

393
00:15:25,054 --> 00:15:27,361
dedicated to the subtext
of that show.

394
00:15:27,361 --> 00:15:30,799
They're friends with a plank
of wood with a face drawn on it.

395
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:32,235
It's nostalgia.
It's important.

396
00:15:32,235 --> 00:15:33,758
You can't take that
from the kids.

397
00:15:33,758 --> 00:15:35,021
Yeah, I know,
but I just think

398
00:15:35,021 --> 00:15:36,805
the mural should represent
something more.

399
00:15:36,805 --> 00:15:39,068
Like Janine. She said every time
she goes by the mural

400
00:15:39,068 --> 00:15:40,809
she made
in elementary school,

401
00:15:40,809 --> 00:15:42,767
she is filled
with a sense of pride.

402
00:15:42,767 --> 00:15:44,247
Oh, no.
No, no, no.

403
00:15:44,247 --> 00:15:46,249
I remember it because
it was super embarrassing.

404
00:15:46,249 --> 00:15:49,905
It was Spongebob with a durag
on, cape out and all.

405
00:15:49,905 --> 00:15:52,255
Yeah. Really wish we'd made
some different choices.

406
00:15:52,255 --> 00:15:54,257
At least tuck it in.
See?

407
00:15:54,257 --> 00:15:55,911
This is what
I'm talking about.

408
00:15:55,911 --> 00:15:57,695
I want to respect
what they like,

409
00:15:57,695 --> 00:15:59,001
but I also want
their future selves

410
00:15:59,001 --> 00:16:00,481
to be proud
of what they did.

411
00:16:00,481 --> 00:16:02,265
Yeah, well, guess what.
That's teaching, buddy.

412
00:16:02,265 --> 00:16:03,701
You got to respect
their now

413
00:16:03,701 --> 00:16:05,007
while preparing them
for the future.

414
00:16:05,007 --> 00:16:06,008
Mm-hmm.

415
00:16:06,008 --> 00:16:07,096
You're right.

416
00:16:07,096 --> 00:16:08,793
- You're welcome.
- Oh, but it's too late.

417
00:16:08,793 --> 00:16:10,273
The mural people left already.

418
00:16:10,273 --> 00:16:12,493
Aww.
You know what?

419
00:16:12,493 --> 00:16:13,929
You're pretty dang defeatist

420
00:16:13,929 --> 00:16:16,062
for someone
who votes third-party.

421
00:16:16,062 --> 00:16:20,283
Come on. Let's go bully
some sensitive artists.

422
00:16:23,939 --> 00:16:25,462
I need to see
Principal Coleman.

423
00:16:25,462 --> 00:16:27,116
Well, if you want to serve
her with a subpoena, good luck.

424
00:16:27,116 --> 00:16:29,640
She's got secret exits
all over this place.

425
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,252
Nicole!
How's Josh doing at Addington?

426
00:16:32,252 --> 00:16:34,036
I need to re-enroll Josh
at Abbott.

427
00:16:34,036 --> 00:16:35,124
They kicked him out.

428
00:16:35,124 --> 00:16:39,433
No, they did not.
For what?

429
00:16:39,433 --> 00:16:42,305
"We regret to inform you
that Joshua Richardson

430
00:16:42,305 --> 00:16:44,307
no longer reaches
the standards required

431
00:16:44,307 --> 00:16:46,353
for our educational
nourishment"?

432
00:16:46,353 --> 00:16:50,052
That's just BS-speak for he
brought down their test scores.

433
00:16:50,052 --> 00:16:53,186
They don't see students.
They see scores.

434
00:16:53,186 --> 00:16:56,276
I've never seen him so upset.
Is there room for him?

435
00:16:56,276 --> 00:16:57,973
Are you kidding?
He was the first one

436
00:16:57,973 --> 00:17:00,280
to call Jacob "Squidward."
Consider Joshua re-enrolled.

437
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,022
He's going to be so happy
to be back at Abbott.

438
00:17:04,980 --> 00:17:06,329
Legendary Charter--

439
00:17:06,329 --> 00:17:07,548
if anyone's going
to take advantage

440
00:17:07,548 --> 00:17:09,071
of this school district,
it's me.

441
00:17:09,071 --> 00:17:10,333
Now, you two need
to get on board.

442
00:17:10,333 --> 00:17:11,900
Who do we need
to fight first?

443
00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:15,208
Well, I am not sure
about the journey there,

444
00:17:15,208 --> 00:17:18,080
but amen
to the destination.

445
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,343
Welcome to the team.

446
00:17:20,343 --> 00:17:22,476
I'll take the ribs.
Thank you.

447
00:17:24,434 --> 00:17:25,783
What's up, Janine?

448
00:17:25,783 --> 00:17:28,221
<i>And</i> Gregory?
You a Bone Bro, too?

449
00:17:28,221 --> 00:17:30,136
Hey, Maurice. We were hoping
that we could talk.

450
00:17:30,136 --> 00:17:31,180
Yeah.

451
00:17:31,180 --> 00:17:33,095
Why so macabre, bro?

452
00:17:33,095 --> 00:17:34,923
We got jalapeño poppers
on deck.

453
00:17:34,923 --> 00:17:38,927
Look, you know how much
I value our friendship.

454
00:17:38,927 --> 00:17:41,408
I don't think I've ever heard
you say that, but sure.

455
00:17:41,408 --> 00:17:44,585
And you know how much
I value our, uh...

456
00:17:44,585 --> 00:17:46,065
Situationship.
Yes.

457
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:48,806
And you're really a--
a great guy. It's--

458
00:17:48,806 --> 00:17:52,332
We got drunk and kisses
at the confrontation conference.

459
00:17:52,332 --> 00:17:53,594
We kissed
at the teachers' conference,

460
00:17:53,594 --> 00:17:54,595
but it meant nothing.

461
00:17:54,595 --> 00:17:56,205
Yeah.
It meant nothing.

462
00:17:56,205 --> 00:17:58,251
Like, yeah, less than nothing, right?

463
00:17:58,251 --> 00:17:59,600
You know, like, what--
what-- what would you say

464
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,384
would be something
that's less than nothing?

465
00:18:01,384 --> 00:18:02,385
Negative nothing.

466
00:18:02,385 --> 00:18:04,126
Yep. That.

467
00:18:04,126 --> 00:18:05,606
We are so, so sorry.

468
00:18:05,606 --> 00:18:08,391
Very sorry.

469
00:18:08,391 --> 00:18:10,828
Hey, it's fine, man.
Things happen.

470
00:18:10,828 --> 00:18:12,613
You know, I would tell you
about the last holiday party

471
00:18:12,613 --> 00:18:15,833
we had at the UPS,
but I don't remember it.

472
00:18:15,833 --> 00:18:17,835
I woke up in a box
on a porch.

473
00:18:17,835 --> 00:18:19,228
You know, thankfully,
my co-workers used

474
00:18:19,228 --> 00:18:21,404
packing peanuts,
so it went smooth.

475
00:18:21,404 --> 00:18:24,364
Well, you know,
we never meant to hurt you.

476
00:18:24,364 --> 00:18:25,669
Nah, we're good.

477
00:18:25,669 --> 00:18:27,889
It's all water
under Adele's bridge.

478
00:18:30,370 --> 00:18:31,849
You're taking this
very well.

479
00:18:31,849 --> 00:18:33,329
Yeah, I'm a chill guy.

480
00:18:33,329 --> 00:18:35,070
I mean, if you say it meant nothing,

481
00:18:35,070 --> 00:18:36,202
there's no reason that
we can't continue to date.

482
00:18:36,202 --> 00:18:38,639
We're good.

483
00:18:38,639 --> 00:18:41,250
I was thinking that maybe
we aren't

484
00:18:41,250 --> 00:18:44,558
the best fit
for each other.

485
00:18:44,558 --> 00:18:46,255
Wait, wait, wait.

486
00:18:46,255 --> 00:18:48,692
You just wanted to break up
with me in front of Gregory?

487
00:18:48,692 --> 00:18:51,304
That is what it looks like,
but no.

488
00:18:51,304 --> 00:18:52,566
That was not our intention.

489
00:18:52,566 --> 00:18:54,307
Oh, y'all are sick.

490
00:18:56,309 --> 00:19:01,052
Look, man, you can have my baby,
but not my baby backs.

491
00:19:01,052 --> 00:19:02,663
Huh?
I'm staying.

492
00:19:02,663 --> 00:19:04,230
Please leave.

493
00:19:04,230 --> 00:19:06,145
That's fair.

494
00:19:08,408 --> 00:19:10,497
And I did enjoy our time--Can I get some more ranch?

495
00:19:12,847 --> 00:19:15,371
Okay, thank you all
for coming.

496
00:19:15,371 --> 00:19:17,678
I just want to give a special
shout-out to Mural Arts.

497
00:19:17,678 --> 00:19:19,462
Thank you for coming back
and helping us

498
00:19:19,462 --> 00:19:22,117
with this very important work
on such late notice.

499
00:19:22,117 --> 00:19:24,641
Well, one of your teachers
made a strong argument

500
00:19:24,641 --> 00:19:26,948
that we return.

501
00:19:26,948 --> 00:19:29,733
I sat down with my class,
and after a lengthy discussion,

502
00:19:29,733 --> 00:19:33,694
they arrived at an idea
that they really believe in.

503
00:19:33,694 --> 00:19:35,086
So, without further ado...

504
00:19:36,305 --> 00:19:37,263
Let's go!

505
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:41,223
Well, I guess
this Silly Sock brigade

506
00:19:41,223 --> 00:19:43,312
is this generation's
"Rug Vermin."

507
00:19:43,312 --> 00:19:45,619
"Rugrats," and, um, wow.

508
00:19:45,619 --> 00:19:47,447
This is gonna be here forever.

509
00:19:47,447 --> 00:19:49,231
I have never been happier to be
on the first floor.

510
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:50,493
I know.

511
00:19:50,493 --> 00:19:52,843
So, I guess you just
totally gave in, huh?

512
00:19:52,843 --> 00:19:54,280
Actually,
if you take a closer look

513
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,846
at the socks' social fabric...

514
00:19:55,846 --> 00:19:58,327
Yeah, move.
...it is a mosaic,

515
00:19:58,327 --> 00:20:01,852
and each of the kids
got their own tile.

516
00:20:01,852 --> 00:20:03,463
Oh.
Whose is this one?

517
00:20:03,463 --> 00:20:05,421
This is me as a doctor,
which is what I want to be

518
00:20:05,421 --> 00:20:06,379
when I grow up.

519
00:20:06,379 --> 00:20:07,945
Aww.

520
00:20:07,945 --> 00:20:10,339
And this is me
as the first

521
00:20:10,339 --> 00:20:11,601
Black female president astronaut.

522
00:20:11,601 --> 00:20:13,386
Ah.

523
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:16,127
This is me
in my favorite class--

524
00:20:16,127 --> 00:20:17,303
Mr. C's class.

525
00:20:17,303 --> 00:20:19,000
I'm gonna be a teacher.

526
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,263
Wait. So you're trying
to grow up to be broke?

527
00:20:21,263 --> 00:20:22,960
Hey, Josh.

528
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,789
Um, I know you weren't here
to help paint the mural,

529
00:20:25,789 --> 00:20:29,924
but I think we've got
some space for you over there.

530
00:20:29,924 --> 00:20:31,752
Thank you, Mr. C.

531
00:20:31,752 --> 00:20:33,536
Nice job, man.
I'm impressed.

532
00:20:33,536 --> 00:20:34,755
I was looking for
a new paint color

533
00:20:34,755 --> 00:20:36,757
for my bathroom downstairs.

534
00:20:36,757 --> 00:20:38,193
Wait, your bathroom where?

535
00:20:38,193 --> 00:20:39,716
Shut up, Janine.

536
00:20:39,716 --> 00:20:41,109
I'm Jacob.

537
00:20:42,632 --> 00:20:45,418
That's true. My favorite day
of the week is Wednesday.

538
00:20:45,418 --> 00:20:47,463
- I didn't know that.
- Yeah.

539
00:20:47,463 --> 00:20:48,508
What are y'all doing?

540
00:20:48,508 --> 00:20:50,379
Oh, we're taking
a personality quiz

541
00:20:50,379 --> 00:20:52,163
to see which
Silly Sock we are.

542
00:20:52,163 --> 00:20:53,817
Mm.
Except me.

543
00:20:53,817 --> 00:20:56,342
I'm not giving info to some
bankrupt hippie data farm.

544
00:20:56,342 --> 00:20:57,995
Too late.
I already did it for you.

545
00:20:57,995 --> 00:21:00,998
What can I say?
I'm a stereotypical Nene Sock.

546
00:21:00,998 --> 00:21:03,436
- You are Miss Ing Sock.
- Mm-hmm.

547
00:21:03,436 --> 00:21:04,741
I knew it.

548
00:21:04,741 --> 00:21:09,180
And I am the glamorous,
yet substantive Toeprah.

549
00:21:09,180 --> 00:21:11,182
You want to get in on this,
Gregory?

550
00:21:11,182 --> 00:21:12,401
Yeah, I'm gonna pass.

551
00:21:12,401 --> 00:21:13,794
I took it for you.

552
00:21:13,794 --> 00:21:15,230
I don't really care
what kind of sock I am.

553
00:21:15,230 --> 00:21:16,840
- You are a Toeseph.
- That's ridiculous!

554
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,233
I'm a textbook Toesha.

555
00:21:18,233 --> 00:21:20,191
Toeseph says exactly that

556
00:21:20,191 --> 00:21:21,584
in episode 86.

557
00:21:23,194 --> 00:21:24,326
That's so Toeseph.
