Hey, yo, this is your
boy Derwin Davis

in the building, and this
is your all-time favorite

sports podcast, Derwin Talks.

Today I'm talking Sin City,
Malik Wright,

and all things Fightin' Fury

as they launch
their inaugural season.

We'll also talk
Keith Kincaid,

the number-one overall
draft pick

and standout QB who is
holding a press conference
today.

Fire!
52, 52!

Yo, 'Lik, let me see
if I still got it.

Hit me on the post.

Oh, I can tell you
right now, Caleb,

you ain't still got it.

Down.
Set, go!

- Oh!
- Who in the hell

was that to, Malik?

All right, men,
less chit-chat.

Yo!

Underthrowing receivers,
that's the first sign

of a quarterback getting old.

Wearing a press pass,
first sign

a receiver's retired, baby.

What's up, money?

God, man.

I would trade places with you
in a heartbeat, 40 Mil.

You know?
One last season,

and then a farewell tour,
and then ownership, man.

My last tour was me getting
carted off the field

with a bum knee,
remember that?

- Uh-huh, yeah.
- Damn.

Well, you got a wife,

you got three kids,
and a bum knee.

Ain't nobody trading places
with you, boy.

Well, I'll still smoke your
ass when I'm 40 with a bum
knee.

We're talking
football and the whole nine.

But first, let's see if this
new Vegas franchise

has any veiled fury
to unleash.

♪

I'm Airdropping you
Black Elvis's number.

- Who?
- You know the hunk

of burning love
that remarried us?

I'm-a get him a couple

of VIP tickets
to the Sabers game,

which means your daddy
gonna be here.

I know.

Speaking of that,
I have been putting together

a great opportunity for us.

Okay, it's a club,
and I just figured, you know,

since the success
of the white party,

we should keep
our momentum going, so...

I am hearing a whole lot
of "our"s and "we"s,

and I need to be hearing
more "you"s and "me"s.

As in, you need to slow
your roll and let me do me.

I just figured, you know,
since it deals with the
Colonel...

Three quick lessons,
new school.

One, you all about
the destination.

And you know
where that gets you?

Nowhere.
Two, back off.

The Colonel is where I eat.

And three,
the club ain't my brand.

You need to focus
on the Mack track.

See, that's your problem,
you got your hand

in too many damn cookie jars.

Got it.
Stay focused.

Good.
'Cause I'm gonna need you

down at the Oakmont
Big Scrub Day thing,

and then after that,
I'm gonna need you

at the press conference
to watch Kai for me,

'cause after today,
everybody gonna want a piece

of Tasha Mack.
Mm.

Dawg, do you understand
what the word "chill" means?

It's called an off day
for a reason, bro.

He's right, Jamison.
A restless grasshopper

eventually ends up
in the bird's teeth.

Yeah, stay out of my teeth.

What y'all got up
for the rest of the day?

I'm digging in this playbook.

I have plans with Raquel.

Who, Brittany's homegirl,
Raquel?

Ooh, dawg,
that's a good look for you,
man.

What? I can feel
your beady little eyes on me.

Dawg, don't tell me
you sprung already.

She's cool.
Not like the others.

I'm actually taking her
on a date today.

-Ooh!
- Around the world, Vegas
style.

Ah. Now, let me hip you
to a proverb.

You can lose all your money
chasing women,

but you'll never lose
all your women chasing money.

Keep your eye
on that bag, dawg.

Save that advice
for pretty boy Jamison.

Yeah, he's the one
with eyes for Brittany.

Well, you need to keep
your head in the books,

'cause Brittany
is wifey material.

Plus, you need to get
them groupies

out your system first, dawg.

I'm just focused
on football, man.

We know!

So, what have you
got planned?

Well, usually,
I'd be entertaining

several women
right now, but...

This no-nut nonsense
got you acting stupid.

- Today I'm-a chill.
- Twenty-one days celibate,

almost at the finish line.

I'm proud of you, 'Lik.

Yo, no-nut ain't no joke.

My mind is clear,
I'm more in control.

Brother's feeling more like
an owner every day.

- Mm-hmm.
- And in nine days,

I'm-a erupt like
a no-nut volcano.

Give me some!

- Just aim it over there.

Good morning!

Oh, so glad you could come.

Okay.
Welcome to the Big Scrub,

an Oakmont tradition
where parents and staff

scrub and bond.

Here at Oakmont,
we are all about community,

and cleaning these
hallowed halls

is an honor
that we do with pride.

- Yes?
- Hi, um, how long will...

we be bonding?

Oh, not long.
Six, maybe seven hours.

Any other questions?

Okay, well, you know what?
Let's get right to it.

You guys can grab a bucket,
and let's scrub-a-dub-dub.

Do we have to wear the shirts?

Oh!

Baby girl, Mama is gonna
make history today.

Matter of fact,
after today,

they gonna call
it "her-story."

- Because why?
- 'Cause Black girls rock.

Ha-ha!
Pow! Pow! Ta-dow!

- Hey.
- Okay, so I have good news,

and I have not-so-good news.

Good news, Simone says
thanks again

for almost raising
two million dollars.

Not-so-good news is they
really take this scrub stuff
seriously.

Okay, more bad news,
I don't know

what the hell
you trying to say.

I'm not gonna be able
to pick up Kai.

I'll be here
building community all day.

Speaking of building,
did you check out

the club plans...

...that I sent you?

Baby girl, how would you like
to spend some time

- with your big brother today?
- Yay!

- Can I have ice cream?
- Of course!

Uh! The no-nut gods
have spoken, baby.

I'm on big brother duty,

and little sis
is the perfect cock-blocker.

Dawg, don't tell nobody
I said that.

Your secret's safe with me.

Oh, man, that's just nasty.

Bro.

Put that shit down, relax.

ANNOUNCER:
...two guys, into a double
team,

and it worked!

A terrific job
by Stephen Curry

coming over to
give some help.

I just wanted to let you know,
Miss Mack,

I am totally confident
in my decision

to have you represent me,

and heck, I'm gonna be
the first white overall QB

to be signed
by a Black agent,

so that's cool.
That's cool.

Oh!

You know what,
this is really big for us,
okay?

Well, mostly me, okay?

So, we're just gonna go
out there,

we just gonna answer
a couple of their questions,

you know, pretty much just
tell 'em what you just told
me.

And then, boom, boom, pow,
we gonna be out of there.

- All right?
- You got it, Miss Mack.

Ah-ah, where you going?
Represent.

- Gotta get my hat.
- Give 'em that swag.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

All right, Hard Blocks,
y'all get y'all some of this

- Tasha Mack agency swag.
- Tash, what up?

My stock
after this news conference.

- Hey, girl.
- Wow, look at you.

- Hey, look at you.
- Damn!

I got something for you.

An interview
with my new client,

Jamison Fields.

- Ohh, okay.
- Mm-hmm.

So, that's how he got
into training camp, huh?

- Mm-hmm.
- Tasha Mack work
one of her miracles?

His rising from the ashes
comeback story?

Schmoney, all right?

And you better get it
while it's hot.

Yeah, I hear you.
I mean, it's definitely gonna
be

- a good look for the show.
- Mm-hmm.

But Tash,
I need something from you.

Oh.
As long as it don't involve me

almost having another one
of your babies, it's good.

Ain't this some shit?

If she spent more time
with the Colonel

instead of the great white
hype, I'd be an owner by now.

So? Who give a damn
about some rookie?

You got more money than God,
headed to the Hall of Fame,

and about to own this joint.

Trust, yo, you got everything
you need.

Well, if I got
everything I need,

then why are you here?

Every Batman
need a Robin, baby.

My knee.

Okay, no bullshit,
it's back.

I know I got two,
maybe three good years left,
T.

I wanna play.

Derwin, what did Melanie say
about you trying to ball
again?

Yo, my boo is cool.
Mel's good, she's down.

Okay, well, look, as your
agent, I'm-a keep it 100.

It's over.
It is.

Okay, look, the demand
wasn't there when you retired,

and it sure as hell
ain't gonna be there now.

I'm sorry, all right?

It's the marketplace.
It ain't personal.

- Ding-Dong.
- Oh!

- Look at us.
- Look at this guy.

Tasha Mack's original team
back together again.

- Yeah.
- What's up, 40 Mil?

- What's up, bro?
- Malik, talk some
sense into your boy.

I ain't got that kinda time.

I'm here to pick up Kai
and bounce

before this shitshow starts.

The hell you are,
'cause I want both my babies

right here to see
their Mama Bear

become the GOAT, all right?

Now, Kai is in the green room.
Go get her.

Okay, all right,
well, I'll stay.

But I'm gonna tell you
right now,

I'm not clapping
for your mediocre-ass client.

Good to see you, boy.

Love you, son.

Tasha, I want this.

I wanna turn back time too,
okay?

Well, I mean, as long as I can
take my bank account with me.

But it ain't happening.

You got the number-one
sports podcast going right
now.

Let the game go.

We all have to write
a second act sometime.

All right?

Hey, hey, Tash, hold up.

Something I-- I need
to show you.

Okay, you know what,
you're delaying me.

It's gonna have to wait.

Tash, you really need
to see this.

Okay, and you really need
to let Tasha Mack

do Tasha Mack.

Showtime.

Toilet duty?

Seriously?

So, what are you in for?

I'll take these two stalls.

Oh, ew!
Is that a pu--

Who still has pubic hair?

Like, I can't.

I cannot.

Don't you think
it's a little odd, you know?

The only two Black people here
put on toilet duty?

It's borderline racist.

You really think that's what
this is about?

You don't?

Ew.

Either way, I have
more productive things to do.

Do you know the
Wi-Fi password?

No.

I searched high and low,
and I am absolutely confident

that I made the right decision
for me and my career.

And that is why
I'm honored to sign...

- He ain't all that.
- Yeah, he ain't all that.

...Miss Tasha Mack here
my agent.

Today we are breaking down
barriers.

Male, female.
Black, white.

All right, we're gonna
change the world,

one white quarterback
at a time.

Any questions?

Tasha! Tasha! Tasha!

Kimberly.

You think Keith will start
right away?

Uh, duh.

Do they want the first pick
next year too?

Come on, now.

Next question.

Tasha, I
got a question.

- Derwin Davis.
- Thank you, Tash.

This question is for Keith.

Mr. Kincaid,
do you care to comment

on your racist tweet
that just came to light?

Uh, sorry.
What are you talking about?

And I quote, "Can't wait
to get my mom a house

"chasing seven figures
with my Nubian shorty

and my country-ass niggas."
End quote.

That's it, no more questions.

Thank you.
We're done.

Malik, what just happened?

Looks like Mama
just made history.

- And for you, sir?
- Can you believe that jerk?

Hey, what do you think
about all this?

I mean, as a Black man?

I don't really know
what happened,

- so I can't speak on it.
- Kincaid tweeted the N-word.

I mean, we should be
past this crap.

Yeah, I mean, come on.

You gotta feel
some kind of way about it.

I don't really know
how I feel about it.

But when I figure it out,
I'll let you know.

In the meantime,
can I take your order?

Why don't you
give us a second.

Like you, we haven't
made up our minds.

No rush.
Take your time.

You might wanna look
at the white mayo

- and the white sandwich.
- Okay.

Over there.

- It's not what it looks like.
- Oh! Really?

So, you're not
an undercover racist,

and you didn't just
embarrass me

in front of the whole
fucking world?

I was a kid
when I tweeted that crap.

All right, it's--
it's an underground rap song.

I post lyrics all the time.

- It's a disaster.

Don't tweet, don't talk,
don't do shit, all right?

Just go,
let me figure it out.

- Go!
- Okay.

It's a bad time?

So, what the hell was that?
You couldn't give me a heads
-up?

Tash, I tried to tell you.
You wouldn't listen.

And don't be mad at me,
be mad at Johnny Utah.

I'm furious with him.

But he's not my friend.
You are.

So, let me ask you this.

Would you have still
dropped that tweet

if I had gotten you a tryout?

The tweet is out there, Tasha,

whether I dropped it
or someone else did.

It's the marketplace.
It ain't personal.

Right?

Payback's a bitch.

So are you.

Would a bitch invite you

onto his podcast
to set the record straight?

You know what, I must have
Boo Boo the Fool

just written
all over my face, huh?

You think I'm-a let you use me
for a ratings draw?

It ain't over, Derwin.

And for the record,
I ain't no bitch.

Bitch.

What are you doing
that's more important

than building community?

Building an empire.

And it starts
on a football field

with a club
in the end zone,

and I call it
Club End Zone.

So, I'm making
a financial plan,

and I have to bounce
the profit losses

and create
a growth pattern analysis

for the cash flow residuals
to, you know,

project the projections of...

...the project.

But it's really technical,
so I don't wanna confuse you.

No, it's definitely confusing.

Yeah, I just have to make
the money add up.

You know, secure the bag,
as they say.

Hmm.

Hey, if you wanna take a break
from all that hard work,

I'd love to show
you something.

Anything to get me
off doody duty.

Okay, but Miss Mack,
Miss Mack.

What-- what if Natalie
made a statement?

- What?
- I mean, that's my
Black fiancée.

That could be powerful, right?

No, what a powerful
statement would be

is Natalie breaking her foot
off in your ass.

Okay, right, but what
I'm trying to say

is maybe she could help me
get some credibility

- that I kinda lost just now.
- No.

Look, the last thing I need
is another sister

going down
as a sacrificial lamb.

It ain't gonna happen
on my watch.

- All right.
- But I don't understand.

That tweet is four years old,
right?

It's four years old.

So, why now?
It just don't make sense to
me.

- It's some bullshit.
- Ah, shoot.

- I got it.
- You got what?

I got an idea.

It's gonna help your ass
and it's gonna save my agency.

Security!

- Take him to the room, okay?
- Okay.

Give me that, Vanilla Ice.

Everybody wanna be a rapper.

Yo! What up, everybody?
It's your boy, Derwin Davis,

and welcome
to a very special

live Derwin Talks.

Coming in hot
from Sin City.

Shout-out to my boy Malik
Wright for hooking us up

with his in-home studio.

Appreciate you, bro.

We're with uber-agent
Tasha Mack

who will speak
for the first time

since yours truly
dropped the racist tweet

about her client
Keith Kincaid.

-Mm-hmm.
-It is...

It's a pleasure
to have you here, Tasha.

Well, it's not such a pleasure
being put on blast, Derwin.

Okay, look, I get it.

But, here you have it.
The floor is yours.

So, the real issue
with that tweet

is that it was dropped
the same day

that a Black agent
made history.

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa,
hold up, hold up, hold up.

So, you think a racist tweet
was strategically dropped

- to derail Tasha Mack Day?
- Damn right, I do.

Because it wasn't dropped
on the day

that Kincaid won the Heisman.

It wasn't dropped when he was
the first pick of the draft,

and it damn sure wasn't
dropped when he signed

with that little
uppity-ass white agent,

God rest his soul, all right?

Yo, every single time
that Black people move
forward,

it's like somebody
gotta move the goalpost.

And somebody gotta fight back.
That's all I'm saying.

- Okay.
- And that somebody
is Tasha Mack.

Hey, well, you can say
what you want, Tash,

but your boy dropped
the N-word, period.

You, of all people,
know what that means.

And he's sorry.

But name one 16-year-old
that hasn't done something
dumb.

Now, those were underground
rap lyrics that he tweeted,

and not to mention,
his fiancée is Black.

So, because he listens
to rap music

and he's marrying
into the tribe,

we should validate
his Black card,

is that what you're saying?

No, wait, wait,
you know damn well

that ain't what I'm saying,
Derwin, okay?

But you wanna talk
about Black cards?

Why don't we validate yours?

You got somebody using you
to bring a sister down?

Okay, you know, hold on,
hold on.

You wanna get real?
We're gonna get real in here.

- Okay.
- You're up here tap-dancing

for a white kid
who drops the N-bomb

like he's dropping a mixtape.

Yeah, and where he at?

He's not even here.

This is not black and white
for you anymore,

this is shades of green.

But I get it,
you're protecting your brand

by any means necessary.

But, does it mean protected
by selling out, though?

Name one Black person
that hasn't shifted the
culture

that hasn't at least once
been called a sellout?

So, hell yeah,
I'm protecting my brand, okay?

And you need to protect
my brand too.

You can start by telling me
and telling the whole world

who gave you that tweet.

That's right,
that's right, that's right.

Yo, she's right, Derwin.
Why don't you tell us?

No, no, no, don't fall
for the okie-doke, dawg.

Mom's just doing what
she does best, she's
deflecting.

Let me just say, Tash,
you put another "K"

in this kid's name,
they're gonna be calling him

Ku Klux Kincaid.

But seriously,
if he couldn't throw a ball,

Tash, you wouldn't be here.

So, I need you to keep it
real for me right now.

- Mm-hmm.
- Do you think it's okay

for a white person
to use the word "nigga"

and then get off scot-free?

Do you think it
was really okay

for you to purposely
miss that block

that ended Kwan's career?

Ooh!

I just missed the block.

And that was a low blow.

It is.

You know, we all do things
we're not proud of.

And we all make mistakes.

But if Keith Kincaid
can do the work to change,

then we all,
everybody up in here,

you, me, and everybody
that's listening,

we can do the work to forgive.

So, you need to put that
in your phone

- and then tweet it.
- I just may do that.

Tasha Mack,
ladies and gentlemen.

Look, okay,
I'm a fair boss, right?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Dad invested in you
in high school,

he protected you in prison,

and he gave you a job
when you got out.

Yeah, and I'm--
I'm very grateful, Montana.

Well, then why are you rude
to my customers?

It wasn't even like that.
I didn't say anything to him.

Okay.
See it like this.

Football team's got
its fans, right?

Without its fans,
it's got nothing.

Without my customers,
I got nothing.

Well, maybe it's time
to change course.

Maybe I can just
focus on football.

I would love for you
to focus on football,

but until you make a team
and pay back what you owe,

you need to be out there
jiggling that ass,

waiting tables,
and keeping my customers
happy.

- You got that?
- Loud and clear.

And lay off
those carbs.

Your body fat's up.

Few years like this and he'll

All-pro Derwin Davis is down,

Mommy happy, right?

Yes.
Like 1,000% to like everybody.

COO.
Mm.

So, what is the COO doing
scrubbing toilets?

That's where I
assigned myself.

I thought I'd be working
with Tasha Mack.

I was hoping to
get to know her,

connect with another
successful Black woman.

- Mm.
- But instead of Tasha,

a different builder of empires
showed up.

I really misjudged this, huh?

Mm, yeah.

- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

Well, we still have
two stalls left.

I say we finish
what we started?

Black girl toilet duty.
No, I like it.

All right.

And can I get
one of those shirts?

I think I can
make that happen.

Come on, Penelope!

Yeah, that's right,

Be a leader

All right, but I gotta ask.

What'd you think
about today's show?

Uh, honestly,
I'm a bit conflicted.

On one hand,
if the tweet's out there,

we should definitely
know about it.

- Mm-hmm.
- On the other,

I know firsthand how one
mistake can define somebody's
life.

So, you're team Tasha.

I'm not-- I'm not necessarily
defending what he did.

I just don't think
a cyber lynch mob

should dictate
somebody's career.

Oh!
So, I ignited a cyber lynch
mob!

Yeah, that's kinda what
the media does.

Hey, you know what's crazy,

is, um, so when
I used to play,

I used
to hate the media.

Now, I'm the hated.

Oh, come on, man.
Look, don't do that.

People love Derwin Talks.

It spark some real
conversations.

- Sometimes too real.
- But that's the point,
though.

Yeah, that's what we want,
I guess.

I just know my boss
chewed me out

because some white dude
came in here,

privilege on 100,
about that tweet.

And nowadays, I mean,
white people

wanna be woke too,

so they probably identify
with the brother.

- Yeah, but it's exhausting.
- Yeah.

'Cause I'm not trying
to have these conversations

with these white folk
up in here.

Yeah, I hear you, man.

But like, on the real, though,
your story, it is so
inspiring.

To make it to the league
after all you've been through?

I have not made it yet.

You made it from jail
to training camp.

How'd you do it?

I couldn't tell you, man.

I just put that chapter
in my life behind me.

And I focused all my energy
into the next one.

That easy, huh?

Oh, no, I'm not saying
it was easy.

But you just do
what you gotta do.

- It's sort of like you.
- What you mean?

You had 12 amazing years
in the game,

and now you got
a shot at chapter two.

That's what's up.

A paraplegic-punching,
womanizing, immature...

Players don't get
ownership chances

like this often,
and when they do,

it's Malik Wright?

A paraplegic-punching,
womanizing...

Come on now.

Ooh, baby, Mama blowing
all up over Black Twitter.

Listen, hashtag
#TMackDontPlay.

Hashtag, #MackGotYourBack.

Hashtag,
#MackieRobinsonDay, mm!

Now, I still ain't heard
nothing from Oprah yet,

but I'm waiting.

What, you ain't got
nothing to say?

Time for y'all
to bounce, dawg.

Come on,
get your cameras, go on.

Malik, that ain't a good look
for Hard Blocks.

You know what else
ain't a good look?

Neglecting your own flesh
and blood, but you got time

to save this white boy's ass
from burning, huh?

That white boy
gonna make Mama millions.

Well, don't forget,
Tasha Mack,

you already got millions
in the bank,

thanks to your son.

Okay, wait, wait,
let's go back

to this whole
little neglect thing.

When did I neglect you?

You caved on my ownership
demands with the Colonel,

and now I gotta put
my body at risk

for another damn year, Ma.

Malik, your ass is playing
another year

'cause you wasn't ready
for ownership, and you know
it.

I am ready, Ma!

I stopped drinking,
I own my own businesses.

Hell, I even gave up women,
all so I can get

these white owners
to take me seriously.

Meanwhile, I can't even get
my own fucking Mama

- to take me seriously.
- You better watch
your fucking mouth.

All right,
now facts over feelings.

I got you 30 mil
for one year.

All you gotta do
is just show up,

play the game that you love,
and shut your damn mouth,

and you'll be an owner.
Mama Mack did that.

Mama, it ain't about
ownership, or even the money.

It's about you being there
for me when I need you.

I begged you, I beggedyou
to back me with the Colonel,

but you called
me crazy instead.

I'm not crazy, Ma!

Okay, wait, look,
when did I call you crazy?

On your plane the day I told
you I was thinking about
Caleb.

Oh my God, boy,
you are so damn dramatic.

Okay, it was a figure of
speech. I'm here, ain't I?

No, you out there
defending that white boy

from calling us niggas.

Meanwhile, I'm in here
being treated like one.

Wait a minute.

Somebody had some ice cream.

- How did you know?

Because Mommy
is a mind reader,

and I see chocolate chip
cookie dough

all over your face, okay?

I want you to go upstairs,
clean up,

and Mommy's gonna
bead your hair.

- Yay!

Malik, clearly you're not
thinking straight.

Okay, baby, look, this is
all about our legacy, honey.

It always has been
and it always will be.

Mack-Wright.

Okay, look.

You need to get
your mind straight

and stop acting
like a damn kid.

And you need to stop acting
like you ain't got no kids,
Ma.

Do you know that Kai
has an imaginary friend?

She's obviously lonely.
She probably hurting.

She's probably needing
to talk to somebody, Ma.

I talk to my daughter
every day.

About what?

'Cause she can't even
talk to you

about losing a tennis match,
so she tells Penelope.

She probably needs to see
a shrink or something, Ma.

My daughter
has a make-believe friend

because she is eight.
She is fine.

And just like you, she has
everything that she needs.

Okay, now if something
was wrong with my child,

trust me, I would know.

Yeah.

Yo, 'Lik, on the real,

maybe it's time I talk
to Moms, you know,

let her know what's what.

For what, dawg?
You heard her.

Nothing's wrong with me.

You know, I'm not really
good at this.

Oh, no, you're doing great.

No, at-- at creating
business proposals.

- You don't say.

Would you mind me
picking your brain sometime?

I'd love to help you
project the projections

of your project.

- You said it with-- like
that. - I did.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

♪

Listen, nobody's ever made
India wait that long before.

Well, I lost focus
for a minute.

- Mm.
- But your boy is back.

Well, I'm glad
I could help you find it.

I'm focused,
my mind is clear,

and I know exactly
what I want.

And tomorrow
will take care of itself.

Ooh, look at my baby braids.

I'm gonna finish braiding,

and then I'm-a bead you,

and you're gonna be
just like Serena.

Uh-uh, I'm gonna be
better than Serena.

Kai...

do you feel like you really
gotta be better than Serena?

I want to be better.

Serena won her first
Grand Slam at 17.

I'm gonna win mine at 16.

That's my girl.

Boom.

Mommy, am I a nigger?

Of course not.

- Did somebody call you that?
- No.

I heard Cindy say it
at school one day,

and earlier, Malik said
that you were okay

with him being one.

So, I was just wondering
if I was one too.

No, baby.
You're not.
