1
00:00:01,911 --> 00:00:04,653
To all the subscribers
of The Teenage Mystique,
2
00:00:04,697 --> 00:00:06,960
something happened to me.
3
00:00:07,004 --> 00:00:09,920
And I've read your stories and
watched so many people be wronged,
4
00:00:09,963 --> 00:00:12,792
so I can't hold back any longer.
5
00:00:12,835 --> 00:00:14,925
All I wanted to do was understand
6
00:00:14,968 --> 00:00:18,885
my authentic self, my
desires, my place in the world.
7
00:00:18,929 --> 00:00:21,148
Because of that, I was
forced to be a cheerleader,
8
00:00:21,192 --> 00:00:22,671
I was put into therapy,
9
00:00:22,715 --> 00:00:25,674
my private diaries were
read, I was demeaned.
10
00:00:25,718 --> 00:00:29,287
I am not your mother anymore.
11
00:00:30,418 --> 00:00:31,724
And then I was...
12
00:00:33,626 --> 00:00:34,640
slapped.
13
00:00:39,123 --> 00:00:41,516
Well, I'm finally
going to tell the truth.
14
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,084
This is my manifesto, my book,
15
00:00:44,128 --> 00:00:47,174
The Collected and
Expanded Teenage Mystique.
16
00:00:47,218 --> 00:00:49,655
Every thought I've ever had, uncensored.
17
00:00:49,698 --> 00:00:52,832
Only the truth will be
allowed in these pages.
18
00:00:52,875 --> 00:00:55,313
The truth about being a teenager.
19
00:00:55,356 --> 00:00:57,097
Our stories.
20
00:00:57,141 --> 00:00:59,317
And if it burns this
small-minded town to the ground,
21
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,145
well, so be it.
22
00:01:02,755 --> 00:01:05,149
So, how do you wanna do this?
23
00:01:05,192 --> 00:01:07,760
Wanna go in first and I
mosey on in 30 seconds later?
24
00:01:09,022 --> 00:01:10,328
Absolutely not.
25
00:01:10,371 --> 00:01:12,547
Veronica Lodge's signature
color may be purple,
26
00:01:12,591 --> 00:01:13,940
but she is no shrinking violet.
27
00:01:14,723 --> 00:01:16,247
So, come on.
28
00:01:16,290 --> 00:01:18,597
Let's give these cubes
something juicy to goss about.
29
00:01:51,369 --> 00:01:52,579
Wowza.
30
00:01:52,873 --> 00:01:54,525
I've never had so many
peepers on me at one time.
31
00:01:54,570 --> 00:01:56,006
Well, if it's any consolation,
32
00:01:56,049 --> 00:01:57,616
I haven't gotten this much attention
33
00:01:57,660 --> 00:01:59,836
since I arrived to school
wearing my sexy witch costume.
34
00:02:03,448 --> 00:02:05,015
Sexy witch costume?
35
00:02:05,059 --> 00:02:06,712
Jughead Jones.
36
00:02:06,756 --> 00:02:09,715
Do you have a thing
for sexy teen witches?
37
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:11,021
Well, yes.
38
00:02:11,065 --> 00:02:12,327
Yes, I do.
39
00:02:12,370 --> 00:02:14,329
But I also know a boss
idea when I hear one,
40
00:02:14,372 --> 00:02:16,940
and sexy teen witch is a very boss idea.
41
00:02:16,984 --> 00:02:20,335
Hmm. Well, glad to
have inspired something.
42
00:02:22,293 --> 00:02:23,293
Catch you later, alligator.
43
00:02:30,171 --> 00:02:32,434
So, what do you think, Mrs. Grundy?
44
00:02:32,476 --> 00:02:33,476
Archie...
45
00:02:34,740 --> 00:02:36,133
This latest poem is...
46
00:02:37,569 --> 00:02:39,093
Excellent.
47
00:02:39,136 --> 00:02:41,964
It's so much more mature
than your earlier work.
48
00:02:42,009 --> 00:02:43,706
- It's like you grew up overnight.
- I...
49
00:02:43,749 --> 00:02:45,751
- What happened?
- I...
50
00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:51,844
I... I watched the
sunrise like you suggested.
51
00:02:53,281 --> 00:02:54,978
Among other things.
52
00:02:55,022 --> 00:02:57,067
Well, keep doing whatever
it is you're doing.
53
00:02:57,111 --> 00:03:00,462
Well, I am definitely going back.
54
00:03:00,505 --> 00:03:03,117
I will definitely do that.
55
00:03:04,727 --> 00:03:05,727
Just keep at it, like you said.
56
00:03:25,749 --> 00:03:27,750
Good morning, class.
57
00:03:39,544 --> 00:03:40,719
Come on. You're yanking
my chain, Mantle.
58
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:42,286
Shh!
59
00:03:42,330 --> 00:03:44,288
Cool it. Not so loud.
60
00:03:44,332 --> 00:03:46,160
You and Andrews?
61
00:03:46,202 --> 00:03:47,509
At the same time?
62
00:03:47,552 --> 00:03:48,684
Andrews.
63
00:03:50,381 --> 00:03:51,435
Is it true?
64
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:54,777
You and Reg took a ride on
the town bicycle, Twyla Twist,
65
00:03:56,605 --> 00:03:58,346
and you're going back for seconds?
66
00:04:03,549 --> 00:04:04,855
And another thing, dear readers,
67
00:04:04,898 --> 00:04:06,421
I am sick of the double standard
68
00:04:06,465 --> 00:04:08,467
that celebrates boys for
their sexual conquests
69
00:04:08,510 --> 00:04:10,556
and punishes girls for wanting the same.
70
00:04:12,427 --> 00:04:14,516
Cheryl, I'm sorry.
71
00:04:20,653 --> 00:04:21,653
What are these?
72
00:04:26,877 --> 00:04:29,009
Hey, those pictures are amazing.
73
00:04:29,053 --> 00:04:31,446
Are they from a private
collection of yours?
74
00:04:32,970 --> 00:04:35,581
I could try and spin some story, Betty,
75
00:04:36,756 --> 00:04:39,280
but I'm tired of lying.
76
00:04:39,324 --> 00:04:42,109
The truth is, I am going
steady with Toni Topaz.
77
00:04:43,110 --> 00:04:44,764
Oh. Oh.
78
00:04:44,807 --> 00:04:46,940
Yeah, well, that makes sense.
79
00:04:46,984 --> 00:04:49,334
And just try to use it against
me, I double-dog dare you.
80
00:04:49,377 --> 00:04:50,509
Oh, Cheryl. Don't worry. I...
81
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,426
I'm the Girl Next Door.
82
00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:55,993
I write The Teenage Mystique.
83
00:04:56,036 --> 00:04:58,909
What? I love The Teenage Mystique.
84
00:04:58,952 --> 00:05:00,911
The Girl Next Door's advice is tops.
85
00:05:00,954 --> 00:05:02,086
Oh.
86
00:05:02,129 --> 00:05:03,652
It's an honor to meet you.
87
00:05:03,696 --> 00:05:06,438
Likewise.
88
00:05:06,481 --> 00:05:09,876
What are you doing with
those amazing pictures?
89
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,139
Honestly, I was going to submit
them to Femme-and-Inmagazine
90
00:05:12,183 --> 00:05:14,098
to come out in the most unabashed way,
91
00:05:14,141 --> 00:05:16,274
and blow the lid off of my
parent's world once and for all.
92
00:05:16,317 --> 00:05:17,526
That's exactly what I'm trying to do
93
00:05:17,527 --> 00:05:19,280
with the book version
of The Teenage Mystique.
94
00:05:19,281 --> 00:05:20,800
Now that's radioactive, Betty.
95
00:05:20,843 --> 00:05:24,804
It is. And, actually, a
story like yours and Toni's,
96
00:05:24,847 --> 00:05:28,939
written by you in your words
would be swell to include.
97
00:05:28,982 --> 00:05:32,638
Maybe accompanied by
some of those pictures?
98
00:05:32,681 --> 00:05:35,162
I have to talk to Toni,
99
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,164
but, yes, Betty.
100
00:05:37,208 --> 00:05:38,470
The pages of The Teenage Mystique
101
00:05:38,513 --> 00:05:40,298
might just be the perfect forum
102
00:05:40,341 --> 00:05:41,864
for our coming out to the world.
103
00:05:41,908 --> 00:05:42,953
Oh, excellent.
104
00:05:45,346 --> 00:05:46,652
And Cheryl,
105
00:05:46,695 --> 00:05:50,134
do you think you and
Toni would be willing
106
00:05:50,177 --> 00:05:51,744
to take pictures like yours of...
107
00:05:52,875 --> 00:05:54,181
Of me,
108
00:05:54,225 --> 00:05:56,183
possibly, for my book cover?
109
00:05:56,227 --> 00:05:57,793
Absolutely.
110
00:05:57,837 --> 00:05:59,665
We can do a photo session.
Then you can pick your favorite
111
00:05:59,708 --> 00:06:03,321
and I can turn it into a
luxurious, supple oil painting
112
00:06:03,364 --> 00:06:04,364
for your book's cover.
113
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:35,483
I have to tell you,
114
00:06:35,527 --> 00:06:38,617
this is the bee's knees, Jughead.
115
00:06:38,660 --> 00:06:40,445
I didn't realize you could draw too.
116
00:06:40,488 --> 00:06:42,490
Well, I'm no Ethel Muggs,
117
00:06:42,534 --> 00:06:45,928
but I think this brain egg could
be the thing to save Pep Comics.
118
00:06:45,972 --> 00:06:48,540
Mr. Fieldstone is looking
for a fresh breakout character
119
00:06:48,583 --> 00:06:50,890
to get past the code and
bring in new readership,
120
00:06:50,933 --> 00:06:54,198
and I think it's Veronica
the Teenage Witch.
121
00:06:55,894 --> 00:06:57,723
Veronica, you're not
gonna believe who's here.
122
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,641
Miss Josie McCoy.
123
00:07:04,338 --> 00:07:06,949
The famous chanteuse?
124
00:07:06,993 --> 00:07:09,822
The founder of the Black
American Theater Project?
125
00:07:09,865 --> 00:07:11,563
The newly minted Tony winner?
126
00:07:11,606 --> 00:07:13,217
In the flesh and fur.
127
00:07:13,260 --> 00:07:15,045
To what do we owe this honor?
128
00:07:15,088 --> 00:07:18,091
I've heard about your
theater, Miss Lodge.
129
00:07:18,135 --> 00:07:20,920
I've heard you're not
afraid to shake things up.
130
00:07:20,963 --> 00:07:24,880
Well, I've built an entire
career out of shaking things up.
131
00:07:24,924 --> 00:07:26,882
You may have heard I've been
working on a major motion picture.
132
00:07:28,362 --> 00:07:29,972
Hush-hush, you understand?
133
00:07:36,892 --> 00:07:41,158
I have heard rumors that your
Broadway smash, Going Uptown,
134
00:07:41,201 --> 00:07:43,638
is being turned into
a movie musical. Yes.
135
00:07:43,682 --> 00:07:45,466
The rumors are true.
136
00:07:45,510 --> 00:07:50,384
A movie musical I wrote,
directed, produced, and starred in.
137
00:07:50,428 --> 00:07:53,300
You've always been the
definition of a Renaissance woman.
138
00:07:53,344 --> 00:07:56,999
Well, then, you know Josie
McCoy is a perfectionist.
139
00:07:57,043 --> 00:08:00,177
This is my first motion
picture, you understand?
140
00:08:00,220 --> 00:08:02,527
And I'm still in the middle
of my process, still tinkering.
141
00:08:02,570 --> 00:08:05,095
Close friends have seen early cuts,
142
00:08:05,138 --> 00:08:07,967
but I need to know how it plays
out in front of a real audience,
143
00:08:08,010 --> 00:08:11,318
far away from the prying eyes of
my partners at Pasadena Pictures.
144
00:08:11,362 --> 00:08:15,279
I don't need a bunch of
starched suits mucking things up
145
00:08:15,322 --> 00:08:17,542
and second-guessing my
every creative choice.
146
00:08:19,196 --> 00:08:22,764
Not until I have proof, positive, say,
147
00:08:22,808 --> 00:08:25,115
filled-out questionnaires
from a test screening,
148
00:08:25,158 --> 00:08:27,465
possibly at your theater, Miss Lodge.
149
00:08:27,508 --> 00:08:28,944
If it's up to my standards.
150
00:08:50,009 --> 00:08:51,010
Can I just say
151
00:08:52,142 --> 00:08:55,319
your movie is a surefire hit.
152
00:08:55,362 --> 00:08:57,190
And you, Miss McCoy,
153
00:08:57,234 --> 00:09:01,194
have made the leap to bona
fide movie star. Cheers.
154
00:09:02,195 --> 00:09:03,675
But,
155
00:09:03,718 --> 00:09:06,852
why bother with the test screenings?
156
00:09:06,895 --> 00:09:08,580
Let's just have ourselves
a good old-fashioned
157
00:09:08,581 --> 00:09:11,596
red carpet movie premiere and
blow the roof off this joint.
158
00:09:11,639 --> 00:09:14,164
As I said, I'm still tinkering.
159
00:09:14,207 --> 00:09:15,861
But why tinker with perfection?
160
00:09:15,904 --> 00:09:18,516
You know how skittish
studio executives can be.
161
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,127
Unfortunately, all too well.
162
00:09:21,171 --> 00:09:23,390
I have dealt with my fair share.
163
00:09:23,434 --> 00:09:24,652
They're fear-driven creatures.
164
00:09:24,696 --> 00:09:26,001
Exactly.
165
00:09:26,045 --> 00:09:27,873
All right, then.
166
00:09:27,916 --> 00:09:29,266
Let's give them the proof they need.
167
00:09:29,309 --> 00:09:31,181
I know the drill.
168
00:09:31,224 --> 00:09:32,269
We'll hand out surveys at
the end of our test screening.
169
00:09:32,269 --> 00:09:34,227
Uh-uh, one moment.
170
00:09:34,271 --> 00:09:37,665
Miss Lodge, your theater
might be up to snuff,
171
00:09:37,709 --> 00:09:40,059
if slightly smaller than I'd hoped.
172
00:09:40,102 --> 00:09:42,496
But I need to make certain
that the seats at my screening
173
00:09:42,540 --> 00:09:44,672
won't be filled with
rubes and blue hairs.
174
00:09:45,934 --> 00:09:47,893
I need to get a lay of the land,
175
00:09:47,936 --> 00:09:51,288
see if Riverdale's as hep a
town as I've been led to believe.
176
00:09:51,331 --> 00:09:53,159
Oh, we're hep.
177
00:09:53,203 --> 00:09:55,640
But don't take my word for it.
178
00:09:55,683 --> 00:09:58,599
Kevin, Clay and I can show you around.
179
00:09:58,643 --> 00:10:00,862
Why don't we meet up tomorrow
morning at 8:00 for a tour?
180
00:10:00,906 --> 00:10:03,691
Eight in the morning?
181
00:10:03,735 --> 00:10:05,476
Oh, no, no, no.
182
00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:08,827
I, my dear, am a creature of the night.
183
00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:11,291
I roll out of bed leisurely
and start drinking espresso
184
00:10:11,292 --> 00:10:12,874
at 3:00 in the afternoon.
185
00:10:12,918 --> 00:10:15,921
You will see me at dusk
and not a moment sooner.
186
00:10:15,964 --> 00:10:18,750
Well, there are a few hotels in town,
187
00:10:18,793 --> 00:10:22,232
but why don't you stay
with me at the Pembrooke?
188
00:10:22,275 --> 00:10:25,322
It's sort of like The
Plaza. By way of the Dakota.
189
00:10:25,365 --> 00:10:27,106
Can I take you there
and get you settled?
190
00:10:30,109 --> 00:10:31,110
I like you, Miss Lodge.
191
00:10:33,634 --> 00:10:36,420
I think we're going to get on just fine.
192
00:10:45,124 --> 00:10:47,431
Hi, Miss Twist.
193
00:10:49,346 --> 00:10:53,219
I, uh, was hoping that maybe
we could see each other again.
194
00:10:53,263 --> 00:10:55,700
Oh, yeah, I remember you now.
195
00:10:57,354 --> 00:11:00,052
Well, you got it wrong, Red.
196
00:11:00,095 --> 00:11:02,794
You see, Twyla is happy to
help a fella out of a rut.
197
00:11:02,837 --> 00:11:04,709
She doesn't do long-term.
198
00:11:04,752 --> 00:11:06,276
Especially not with puppy dogs.
199
00:11:06,319 --> 00:11:07,319
Oh, but I...
200
00:11:08,278 --> 00:11:09,583
really need the experience.
201
00:11:09,627 --> 00:11:11,193
If, that's the case,
202
00:11:11,237 --> 00:11:13,500
Lord knows, there's got
to be some hot older mama
203
00:11:13,544 --> 00:11:15,633
who would love to take a bite out
of a Red Delicious like yourself.
204
00:11:16,851 --> 00:11:17,851
You dig?
205
00:11:32,650 --> 00:11:34,173
Okay. Are you ready?
206
00:11:34,216 --> 00:11:35,305
Yes.
207
00:11:35,348 --> 00:11:37,742
One, two, three.
208
00:11:40,962 --> 00:11:42,312
So pretty. Okay, let's take two more.
209
00:12:00,112 --> 00:12:02,201
Hey, Veronica, can I
talk to you for a second?
210
00:12:03,985 --> 00:12:06,161
Word from the bird is
that Josie McCoy's in town,
211
00:12:06,205 --> 00:12:08,990
and you might be bringing her to
the Dark Room's open mic tonight.
212
00:12:10,644 --> 00:12:13,995
My, gossip travels fast
in this town, doesn't it?
213
00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:18,043
If that's the case, my boy,
Fangs, here is going to perform.
214
00:12:18,086 --> 00:12:20,698
If he and Midge are going to make
a go of it, he needs a big break,
215
00:12:20,741 --> 00:12:23,265
one that Josie might be able to provide.
216
00:12:23,309 --> 00:12:25,200
Do you think Miss McCoy would be willing
217
00:12:25,201 --> 00:12:26,704
to pick up what I'm putting down?
218
00:12:26,747 --> 00:12:29,881
Now I can't speak for
Miss McCoy, of course.
219
00:12:29,924 --> 00:12:32,840
But if there's one thing
a star like her recognizes,
220
00:12:32,884 --> 00:12:33,884
it's talent.
221
00:12:37,758 --> 00:12:38,977
Good morning, Mrs. Grundy.
222
00:12:39,020 --> 00:12:40,370
I brought you something.
223
00:12:41,196 --> 00:12:43,329
That is so sweet. Thank you.
224
00:12:43,373 --> 00:12:46,550
And Red Delicious is my favorite.
225
00:12:46,593 --> 00:12:49,030
I, actually... I wanted to let you know
226
00:12:49,074 --> 00:12:52,338
I'm performing a new poem I
wrote at the Dark Room tonight.
227
00:12:52,382 --> 00:12:55,559
Yeah, I'd really be jazzed if
you could make it and hear it.
228
00:12:55,602 --> 00:12:58,997
Well, I'm touched that
you would think of me.
229
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,391
And yes, of course I will be there.
230
00:13:01,434 --> 00:13:02,609
Anything for my favorite student.
231
00:13:06,178 --> 00:13:08,267
She's bewitching. She casts spells.
232
00:13:08,310 --> 00:13:10,530
Nothing harmful or offensive, of course.
233
00:13:10,574 --> 00:13:11,923
But mostly, she's a high school student.
234
00:13:11,966 --> 00:13:13,403
She goes to class, does her homework,
235
00:13:13,446 --> 00:13:15,448
gets into romantic trouble.
236
00:13:15,492 --> 00:13:18,843
You know, good old-fashioned,
wholesome, vampy, campy fun.
237
00:13:18,886 --> 00:13:20,453
- What do you think?
- Well,
238
00:13:20,497 --> 00:13:23,587
I think if she's going to stand
a snowball's chance in hell
239
00:13:23,630 --> 00:13:24,979
of getting past the Tribunal,
240
00:13:25,023 --> 00:13:27,721
we're gonna have to sand
the edges a little bit.
241
00:13:27,765 --> 00:13:29,810
They hear the word "witch",
242
00:13:29,854 --> 00:13:31,812
they're gonna be going for
their pitchforks, you know.
243
00:13:31,856 --> 00:13:33,597
- Teenage witch.
- No, no.
244
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,294
I'm not saying we ditch the
concept. I'm just saying,
245
00:13:37,862 --> 00:13:40,255
I don't know, make her a half-witch.
246
00:13:40,299 --> 00:13:41,996
And you'll have to get
her out of this getup.
247
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,346
Too much cleavage.
248
00:13:44,390 --> 00:13:46,697
- And make her a blonde.
- Blonde?
249
00:13:46,740 --> 00:13:48,525
And you'll have to come up
with a new name, of course.
250
00:13:48,568 --> 00:13:49,830
New name?
251
00:13:49,874 --> 00:13:52,267
Yeah, Veronica?
252
00:13:52,311 --> 00:13:53,573
Reminds me of Veronica Lake.
253
00:13:53,617 --> 00:13:57,098
Too sexy, too dangerous, too, um, curvy.
254
00:13:57,142 --> 00:13:58,883
Trust me, if you...
255
00:13:58,926 --> 00:14:01,842
It's gonna pass muster with
those prudes over at the Tribunal,
256
00:14:01,886 --> 00:14:03,365
nope, it has to be, uh...
257
00:14:03,409 --> 00:14:04,628
Has to be something sweeter.
258
00:14:04,671 --> 00:14:06,238
Yeah, I don't know. Magical.
259
00:14:22,254 --> 00:14:26,258
Now, you pick the one you like
the most, and I will paint it.
260
00:14:26,301 --> 00:14:30,392
That way, we'll get the exact look
you want for your book's cover.
261
00:14:36,398 --> 00:14:39,489
What's the hiccup? Are you displeased?
262
00:14:39,532 --> 00:14:41,621
No, I'm so glad that I'm coming out
263
00:14:41,665 --> 00:14:43,841
as the voice behind
The Teenage Mystique.
264
00:14:45,669 --> 00:14:50,325
I just can't help feeling
a little bit like a fraud.
265
00:14:50,369 --> 00:14:53,546
Dressing in lingerie, writing about sex
266
00:14:53,590 --> 00:14:55,050
when I haven't experienced anything
267
00:14:55,051 --> 00:14:57,594
even remotely sexually
satisfying myself.
268
00:14:57,637 --> 00:14:59,073
What do you mean?
269
00:14:59,117 --> 00:15:01,075
I mean...
270
00:15:01,119 --> 00:15:05,079
Everyone I know is
having or has had sex.
271
00:15:05,123 --> 00:15:06,777
And I'm the only teenager in the world
272
00:15:06,820 --> 00:15:09,606
who can't seem to find
someone to go there with me.
273
00:15:09,649 --> 00:15:13,523
Betty, you do know a woman doesn't
274
00:15:13,566 --> 00:15:16,961
need anyone to be sexually satisfied?
275
00:15:17,918 --> 00:15:18,918
She can...
276
00:15:20,225 --> 00:15:21,835
do it on her own.
277
00:15:21,879 --> 00:15:24,708
I did read about self-pleasure
in Kingsley's book,
278
00:15:24,751 --> 00:15:26,710
but it wasn't exactly a how-to manual.
279
00:15:27,537 --> 00:15:28,625
I see.
280
00:15:29,451 --> 00:15:30,540
However...
281
00:15:34,239 --> 00:15:38,983
This particularly illuminating
issue of Femme-and-Inmagazine
282
00:15:39,025 --> 00:15:41,551
might be exactly what
the doctor ordered.
283
00:15:41,594 --> 00:15:43,900
And I certainly don't mean Werthers.
284
00:15:43,944 --> 00:15:47,644
Turns out, all a woman needs
to be sexually satisfied
285
00:15:47,687 --> 00:15:51,648
is a bathtub, a bathroom
with a lock on it,
286
00:15:51,691 --> 00:15:52,691
and...
287
00:15:53,998 --> 00:15:55,565
Shall we say,
288
00:15:56,609 --> 00:15:58,969
a helping hand?
289
00:15:58,970 --> 00:16:02,310
Veronica The Teenage
Witch is too sexy, you say?
290
00:16:02,354 --> 00:16:04,574
I mean, he's not wrong.
291
00:16:04,617 --> 00:16:06,924
I am cut from the same
cloth as Veronica Lake
292
00:16:06,967 --> 00:16:11,058
and therefore, too provocative
for those feeble-minded censors.
293
00:16:11,102 --> 00:16:12,930
It's their loss.
294
00:16:12,973 --> 00:16:14,801
On top of which, I have
to figure out a new name,
295
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:17,804
something more magical.
296
00:16:17,848 --> 00:16:20,765
Hey, did you happen to see
that Audrey Hepburn picture
297
00:16:20,766 --> 00:16:22,116
that came out last year?
298
00:16:22,156 --> 00:16:23,941
Her character had a superb name in that.
299
00:16:25,812 --> 00:16:27,248
What was that movie called again?
300
00:16:27,292 --> 00:16:28,685
Sabrina.
301
00:16:28,728 --> 00:16:29,990
Audrey played the title character.
302
00:16:30,034 --> 00:16:31,078
Sabrina.
303
00:16:31,122 --> 00:16:32,166
Yeah.
304
00:16:33,733 --> 00:16:35,517
Yeah, that could be the ticket.
305
00:16:42,394 --> 00:16:46,833
"In the bloom of Eden's
garden, the first transgression.
306
00:16:46,877 --> 00:16:49,706
A simple apple, Eve learned her lesson.
307
00:16:52,186 --> 00:16:54,798
Different garden, same temptation.
308
00:16:56,974 --> 00:17:00,151
A young man seeking an education.
309
00:17:04,808 --> 00:17:07,637
A teacher's pupil brings her apples,
310
00:17:07,679 --> 00:17:10,247
and sinful thoughts
with which he grapples.
311
00:17:10,291 --> 00:17:13,554
While she teaches, he
sits through classes
312
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:14,992
wondering how she looks
313
00:17:16,515 --> 00:17:17,647
without those glasses."
314
00:17:28,570 --> 00:17:30,877
Jeepers, Archie, that
was kind of off the cob.
315
00:17:32,618 --> 00:17:34,664
Better luck next time, champ.
316
00:17:38,276 --> 00:17:40,670
Honestly, if that's what
passes for art in Riverdale,
317
00:17:40,713 --> 00:17:41,845
I don't think this is going to work.
318
00:17:41,888 --> 00:17:43,803
Just you wait, Josie.
319
00:17:43,847 --> 00:17:46,023
There's another act coming up that
will have you positively purring.
320
00:17:46,066 --> 00:17:47,720
Well, it's official.
321
00:17:47,764 --> 00:17:50,505
After that poem, this is the
iciest room on the Eastern Seaboard.
322
00:17:50,549 --> 00:17:51,855
No worries, though.
323
00:17:51,898 --> 00:17:55,859
Give it up for my boy, Fangs Fogarty.
324
00:17:55,902 --> 00:17:58,688

Rock 'n' roll isn't my

How is he on the bongos? Do you know?

It's almost done, Miss McCoy.
and we're all still here.
386
00:22:21,733 --> 00:22:24,344
So what do you say?
387
00:22:24,388 --> 00:22:27,173
Is Riverdale hep enough for a
test screening of Going Uptown?
388
00:22:28,740 --> 00:22:30,394
Let's do it.
389
00:22:32,352 --> 00:22:35,486
Miss McCoy, at the risk of overstepping,
390
00:22:38,097 --> 00:22:40,415
would you also possibly
consider attending
391
00:22:40,416 --> 00:22:42,536
a meeting of Black
Athena at Riverdale High?
392
00:22:42,580 --> 00:22:45,322
It would mean so much to our members
to meet a Black icon like you.
393
00:22:45,365 --> 00:22:46,497
Well, I like the sound of that.
394
00:22:46,540 --> 00:22:49,369
But what exactly is Black Athena?
395
00:22:49,413 --> 00:22:51,408
It's a literary society I started
396
00:22:51,409 --> 00:22:53,373
for the Black students
at Riverdale High.
397
00:22:53,417 --> 00:22:56,986
Hmm. Well, now that's something
Josie McCoy can certainly get behind.
398
00:23:03,557 --> 00:23:04,732
Archie.
399
00:23:04,776 --> 00:23:05,820
Mrs. Grundy,
400
00:23:08,867 --> 00:23:12,001
We didn't get a chance to
talk last night after my poem.
401
00:23:12,044 --> 00:23:14,829
No, I had to rush home.
402
00:23:14,873 --> 00:23:17,397
My husband was expecting
me for a late dinner.
403
00:23:17,963 --> 00:23:19,008
Oh.
404
00:23:20,270 --> 00:23:24,535
Okay. Well, what do you think?
405
00:23:24,578 --> 00:23:28,800
I think we need to switch gears.
406
00:23:31,281 --> 00:23:37,281
Love poems are all well and good,
but I would like you to branch out.
407
00:23:40,203 --> 00:23:42,988
Okay... Sure.
408
00:23:45,295 --> 00:23:46,383
Okay.
409
00:23:46,426 --> 00:23:48,037
Anything you want, Mrs. Grundy.
410
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,214
I want you to write about pain.
411
00:23:51,257 --> 00:23:54,478
Physical pain, emotional
pain, psychological pain.
412
00:23:56,262 --> 00:23:58,003
"What is my most painful experience?"
413
00:23:59,265 --> 00:24:00,658
And write about that.
414
00:24:04,314 --> 00:24:07,404
And let's take young
heartbreak off the table.
415
00:24:08,579 --> 00:24:11,364
As a topic, okay?
416
00:24:22,854 --> 00:24:25,161
I was so inspired. I
stayed up all night.
417
00:24:25,204 --> 00:24:26,204
So did I.
418
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,382
So was I.
419
00:24:31,645 --> 00:24:33,604
Do you hate it? I can adjust anything.
420
00:24:33,647 --> 00:24:34,909
- The background?
- No, no, don't.
421
00:24:36,476 --> 00:24:38,217
Don't... Don't change anything.
422
00:24:42,003 --> 00:24:43,003
It's beautiful.
423
00:24:43,962 --> 00:24:45,311
Silly goose.
424
00:24:47,618 --> 00:24:49,315
You're beautiful.
425
00:24:58,455 --> 00:25:01,806
Kid, I gotta say, I love this.
426
00:25:01,849 --> 00:25:04,765
I think you've struck gold
here. Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
427
00:25:04,809 --> 00:25:06,767
Now that's a title.
428
00:25:06,811 --> 00:25:09,683
I'm going to send this off to
the tribunal for review, stat.
429
00:25:10,597 --> 00:25:12,208
But congratulations, kid.
430
00:25:12,251 --> 00:25:15,341
I think this cutie patootie
half witch of yours is gonna
431
00:25:15,385 --> 00:25:19,345
single-handedly save Pep Comics
from the dustbin of obscurity.
432
00:25:23,741 --> 00:25:25,134
She's a woman who needs no introduction.
433
00:25:26,613 --> 00:25:29,529
Josie McCoy's impact
reaches beyond the stage
434
00:25:29,573 --> 00:25:32,358
and into the very fabric of our culture.
435
00:25:32,402 --> 00:25:35,318
I know you're all familiar with
the breadth of her incredible work,
436
00:25:35,361 --> 00:25:38,147
but let's dive a
little deeper, shall we?
437
00:25:39,713 --> 00:25:41,498
Tracy?
438
00:25:41,541 --> 00:25:44,979
You are unapologetically
you, Miss McCoy.
439
00:25:46,546 --> 00:25:51,377
But as someone representing,
well, all of us,
440
00:25:51,421 --> 00:25:53,814
did you have to compromise
yourself along the way?
441
00:25:53,858 --> 00:25:58,384
- First thing, Tracy?
- Yes.
442
00:25:58,428 --> 00:26:03,172
You are not me, and I am not you.
And yet, we are all beautiful.
443
00:26:03,215 --> 00:26:09,215
My darlings, our experiences as
Black people are multi-faceted
444
00:26:09,482 --> 00:26:11,441
and rich and varied.
445
00:26:11,484 --> 00:26:15,401
But none of us should have to
compromise ourselves for anything.
446
00:26:15,445 --> 00:26:19,060
We cannot. Compromise is
not a word in my vocabulary,
447
00:26:19,061 --> 00:26:21,445
nor should it be in yours.
448
00:26:22,103 --> 00:26:26,456
I cannot help but give my
whole self to every performance
449
00:26:26,499 --> 00:26:29,894
because the world deserves
every facet of my being.
450
00:26:32,113 --> 00:26:36,683
Miss McCoy, a while back on a trip
to New York City, I was lucky enough
451
00:26:36,727 --> 00:26:40,687
to see you as Lady Macbeth,
opposite Charles Clayton as Macbeth.
452
00:26:40,731 --> 00:26:43,908
That was at my theater
in Harlem. I remember.
453
00:26:43,951 --> 00:26:47,390
Mmm-hmm. And your performance
has stayed with me ever since.
454
00:26:47,433 --> 00:26:49,435
You were so fierce and commanding,
455
00:26:49,479 --> 00:26:52,133
yet, also vulnerable.
456
00:26:52,177 --> 00:26:55,572
Oh, sweetie, that is the
only way I know how to be.
457
00:26:57,487 --> 00:27:03,101
Ferocious and vulnerable. All things
at once, and when I work, I bleed.
458
00:27:03,144 --> 00:27:04,581
It's as simple as that.
459
00:27:04,624 --> 00:27:05,886
That's what I try to
do at my typewriter.
460
00:27:05,930 --> 00:27:07,018
I try to bleed, too.
461
00:27:08,933 --> 00:27:11,109
Enough about Josie McCoy.
462
00:27:11,152 --> 00:27:15,679
Tell me. Where did the idea for
the Black Athena club come from?
463
00:27:15,722 --> 00:27:17,837
When I was in high school,
I would've crossed the Sahara
464
00:27:17,838 --> 00:27:19,465
for a group like this.
465
00:27:19,509 --> 00:27:21,946
Honestly, Josie, I started
this club because I was tired.
466
00:27:22,816 --> 00:27:24,470
Plain and simple.
467
00:27:24,514 --> 00:27:29,475
I was tired of this bogus
town telling me who I was.
468
00:27:29,519 --> 00:27:33,174
Tired of treading water in
the Caucasian sea of opinions.
469
00:27:34,088 --> 00:27:36,656
We all needed a haven.
470
00:27:36,700 --> 00:27:38,450
And I know I wasn't the only one tired
471
00:27:38,451 --> 00:27:39,964
of being told no by the gatekeepers.
472
00:27:41,313 --> 00:27:44,098
- So we...
- So you bet on yourselves.
473
00:27:45,491 --> 00:27:46,491
Mmm.
474
00:27:47,928 --> 00:27:49,190
Yes, I can see that.
475
00:27:51,976 --> 00:27:53,282
Yes, I certainly can.
476
00:27:55,632 --> 00:27:58,461
All right, let's blow this out.
477
00:27:58,504 --> 00:28:00,289
I want a full red carpet premiere.
478
00:28:00,332 --> 00:28:01,942
All the bells and whistles.
479
00:28:01,986 --> 00:28:03,988
Spotlights, velvet ropes.
480
00:28:04,031 --> 00:28:07,121
The creme de la creme. My movie
is in your hands, Veronica.
481
00:28:07,165 --> 00:28:10,908
But if Going Uptown isn't a hit...
482
00:28:10,951 --> 00:28:13,389
If we invite the press and
they don't right 5-star raves,
483
00:28:13,432 --> 00:28:15,304
it won't just be my
movie that disappears.
484
00:28:16,566 --> 00:28:17,566
I disappear too.
485
00:28:18,524 --> 00:28:20,178
I won't get a second chance.
486
00:28:20,221 --> 00:28:21,614
And this film cost me everything.
487
00:28:22,572 --> 00:28:23,572
What do you mean...
488
00:28:25,139 --> 00:28:26,139
"cost you everything"?
489
00:28:27,838 --> 00:28:29,318
I financed it myself.
490
00:28:31,450 --> 00:28:34,061
When Going Uptownbecame
a Broadway hit...
491
00:28:34,105 --> 00:28:39,023
When I, Josie McCoy made it a hit,
they wanted to turn it into a movie.
492
00:28:40,241 --> 00:28:43,375
Of course, I was thrilled.
493
00:28:43,419 --> 00:28:47,640
Until I found out that my part, the
part that I won a Tony Award for,
494
00:28:49,381 --> 00:28:53,167
was being reconceived for Lana Turner.
495
00:28:54,865 --> 00:28:55,865
No...
496
00:28:56,214 --> 00:28:57,433
Yes.
497
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,350
It was a slap in the face.
498
00:29:04,788 --> 00:29:08,661
Apparently, the powers that
be thought the silver screen
499
00:29:08,705 --> 00:29:13,187
wasn't ready for Josie McCoy
and her Black, beautiful self.
500
00:29:13,231 --> 00:29:15,451
So I scrounged up every penny I had.
501
00:29:15,494 --> 00:29:19,193
I even mortgaged my brownstone
and I bought the rights
502
00:29:19,237 --> 00:29:21,892
to Going Uptownout from under them,
and I made the damn thing myself.
503
00:29:23,502 --> 00:29:27,724
I put everything I
had into this picture.
504
00:29:27,767 --> 00:29:33,767
So the test screenings, the surveys,
505
00:29:34,121 --> 00:29:36,385
weren't part of your process.
506
00:29:37,777 --> 00:29:40,824
- They're going to be for...
- Studios.
507
00:29:40,867 --> 00:29:44,784
If we tested well enough with Black
and white audiences in the sticks,
508
00:29:44,828 --> 00:29:47,961
I thought that maybe... Maybe I
could convince one of the majors to...
509
00:29:50,137 --> 00:29:51,704
To distribute Going Uptown.
510
00:29:51,748 --> 00:29:55,099
Then why the change of heart
to hold the premier now?
511
00:29:57,493 --> 00:30:01,322
Making Going Uptown, and
risking everything for it,
512
00:30:01,366 --> 00:30:04,891
it's the most terrifying
thing I have ever done.
513
00:30:06,806 --> 00:30:09,896
The studios. They don't think
I'm a movie star, but I know I am.
514
00:30:12,159 --> 00:30:16,903
But Going Uptownwill have to
explode like an atomic bomb.
515
00:30:20,472 --> 00:30:23,127
Are you tuned in and
hearing my signal straight?
516
00:30:23,170 --> 00:30:29,133
Josie, after the premiere
I'm going to throw you,
517
00:30:29,176 --> 00:30:33,267
you are going to have a
bidding war on your hands,
518
00:30:33,311 --> 00:30:37,010
which is exactly what a star
of your caliber deserves.
519
00:30:38,969 --> 00:30:40,361
I hate not being able to see you.
520
00:30:41,145 --> 00:30:42,625
Or hold you.
521
00:30:42,668 --> 00:30:44,496
But we're cooking with gas now, baby.
522
00:30:44,540 --> 00:30:48,152
I performed for the Josie McCoy.
523
00:30:48,195 --> 00:30:51,024
She's gonna hook me up with
her music producer in New York.
524
00:30:51,068 --> 00:30:53,418
A real hotshot, Alexander Cabot.
525
00:30:53,462 --> 00:30:54,463
Killer Diller!
526
00:30:56,203 --> 00:30:59,380
Oh, Fangs. That's peachy to the max.
527
00:30:59,424 --> 00:31:00,730
I'm gonna get you out
of that crazy place.
528
00:31:02,122 --> 00:31:04,081
We'll be together before you know it.
529
00:31:04,124 --> 00:31:05,691
They rejected Sabrina?
530
00:31:05,735 --> 00:31:09,303
Yep. They kicked it
back and in record time.
531
00:31:09,347 --> 00:31:12,263
Sabrina the Teenage Witch
just ain't gonna fly, kid.
532
00:31:12,306 --> 00:31:13,960
Why? Did they say?
533
00:31:14,004 --> 00:31:16,876
Yeah, they... They gave
my ears quite the bashing.
534
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,055
Objected to pretty much everything,
535
00:31:18,056 --> 00:31:20,445
like, for starters, that she's a witch.
536
00:31:20,489 --> 00:31:21,968
This is nuts.
537
00:31:22,012 --> 00:31:24,318
Preaching to the choir,
kid, preaching to the choir.
538
00:31:24,362 --> 00:31:27,713
You came up with something
fun and whimsical,
539
00:31:27,757 --> 00:31:29,700
and all they saw was witches, Satanism,
540
00:31:29,701 --> 00:31:32,675
hocus pocus, and human sacrifices.
541
00:31:32,718 --> 00:31:35,591
I know it's crushing, but shame on us.
542
00:31:35,634 --> 00:31:38,289
We probably never should have
tried to launch a comic book
543
00:31:38,332 --> 00:31:39,682
about witch in the
middle of a witch hunt.
544
00:31:41,597 --> 00:31:43,729
I'm so sorry, Jughead.
545
00:31:43,773 --> 00:31:46,602
Sabrina The Teenage
Witch is a brilliant idea,
546
00:31:46,645 --> 00:31:48,865
and I'm not just saying
that because I inspired her.
547
00:31:48,908 --> 00:31:50,083
She's just ahead of her time.
548
00:31:52,390 --> 00:31:54,348
Give it a few years.
549
00:31:54,392 --> 00:31:58,091
Let the hysteria die down and
there will be no stopping her.
550
00:31:58,135 --> 00:32:02,705
I just feel like Pep Comics
is sinking in quicksand.
551
00:32:02,748 --> 00:32:04,620
Listen, if you're down in the mouth
552
00:32:04,663 --> 00:32:06,404
and not in the mood for a premier,
553
00:32:06,447 --> 00:32:08,058
I'd completely understand.
554
00:32:08,101 --> 00:32:10,234
Are you kidding? This is
probably the only chance
555
00:32:10,277 --> 00:32:13,411
I'll ever be invited to a Hollywood
premiere. I'm not going to miss it.
556
00:32:13,454 --> 00:32:14,604
- The only thing is...
- You don't have a suit.
557
00:32:16,370 --> 00:32:18,634
I barely have any clothes
without an S on them.
558
00:32:18,677 --> 00:32:21,898
I thought we might run
into this predicament.
559
00:32:21,941 --> 00:32:26,555
So I may or may not have taken
some precautionary measures.
560
00:32:27,860 --> 00:32:31,603
Tailored exactly to your measurements.
561
00:32:31,647 --> 00:32:35,738
I think you'll find nothing
but the best for my flutter bum.
562
00:32:35,781 --> 00:32:36,781
Yowza.
563
00:32:39,742 --> 00:32:41,570
Are you absolutely sure
you're not a teenage witch?
564
00:34:07,220 --> 00:34:09,222
Who's that sourpuss?
565
00:34:09,266 --> 00:34:13,052
He's a notoriously surly but also
highly influential movie critic
566
00:34:13,095 --> 00:34:14,184
from the WABE Journal.
567
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:16,360
Don't worry.
568
00:34:16,403 --> 00:34:18,666
You and your movie are undeniable.
569
00:34:21,191 --> 00:34:22,845
Here we go.
570
00:34:50,568 --> 00:34:53,309
What the hell is going on, you bozos?
571
00:34:53,353 --> 00:34:54,659
Film got hot and split.
572
00:34:54,702 --> 00:34:56,661
We need to splice it back
together and rethread it.
573
00:34:56,704 --> 00:34:58,881
Have you snapped your
caps? We're gonna lose them.
574
00:34:58,924 --> 00:35:00,317
- Who?
- The audience, Kevin.
575
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,493
The audience and the critics.
576
00:35:02,536 --> 00:35:04,277
The spell has been broken.
577
00:35:04,321 --> 00:35:06,715
You two are the worst
projectionists in the world.
578
00:35:06,758 --> 00:35:08,717
You're fired, we're no longer friends.
579
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,893
And from now on you'll be paying
full price for movie tickets.
580
00:35:10,936 --> 00:35:12,600
Everyone, calm down.
581
00:35:12,704 --> 00:35:14,544
Once. I was mid performance
in Greenwich Village
582
00:35:14,545 --> 00:35:15,898
when the club got raided by the fuzz.
583
00:35:15,941 --> 00:35:17,943
But I still managed to
finish my performance.
584
00:35:17,987 --> 00:35:21,338
We will get through this
if we don't fall apart.
585
00:35:21,381 --> 00:35:23,906
You two, how long will it take
to splice my film back together?
586
00:35:23,949 --> 00:35:25,211
I don't know. Five minutes?
587
00:35:25,255 --> 00:35:27,474
Five minutes.
588
00:35:27,518 --> 00:35:28,615
There are half a dozen critics out there
589
00:35:28,616 --> 00:35:30,086
looking at their pocket watches,
590
00:35:30,129 --> 00:35:32,392
wondering if they can catch
the next train out of Riverdale.
591
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:36,135
Hold your horses, folks. Where
do you think you're going?
592
00:35:36,179 --> 00:35:39,051
All right. Now, why don't we sit
down and enjoy the excitement?
593
00:35:39,095 --> 00:35:40,444
Well, they're fixing my film.
594
00:35:40,487 --> 00:35:41,924
How long would it take
you to get a band together?
595
00:35:41,967 --> 00:35:44,753
Fangs is here. So I'd
say about 60 seconds?
596
00:35:45,666 --> 00:35:47,103
Perfect.
597
00:35:47,146 --> 00:35:48,757
Then I'll buy these
two the time they need
598
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,106
to get my movie fixed and running again.
599
00:35:52,238 --> 00:35:55,764
Who says motion pictures
are a frozen art form?
600
00:35:55,807 --> 00:35:57,495
While my associates are making
601
00:35:57,496 --> 00:36:01,030
Going Uptowneven more
fabulous than before,
602
00:36:01,073 --> 00:36:03,336
here in the flesh,
603
00:36:03,380 --> 00:36:05,948
performing the film's title number,
604
00:36:05,991 --> 00:36:08,733
is Miss Josie McCoy.
605
00:36:10,169 --> 00:36:13,303

He's on the train back to New York.
631
00:38:25,870 --> 00:38:29,613
And? Is it going to be a rave or not?
632
00:38:29,656 --> 00:38:32,007
Now, Josie, you know these critics.
633
00:38:32,050 --> 00:38:35,227
But I may have greased his wheels a bit,
634
00:38:35,271 --> 00:38:37,490
and gotten a taste of what he's
going to publish in the journal.
635
00:38:37,534 --> 00:38:38,534
Let's hear it.
636
00:38:41,146 --> 00:38:43,192
First, the headline.
637
00:38:43,235 --> 00:38:45,020
"A star is born."
638
00:38:47,152 --> 00:38:49,024
Would you like to hear
the opening paragraph?
639
00:38:49,067 --> 00:38:50,067
Why not?
640
00:38:52,114 --> 00:38:54,072
"Stop the presses.
641
00:38:54,116 --> 00:38:57,641
An atomic bomb exploded in Riverdale.
642
00:38:57,684 --> 00:39:01,514
People will be talking about
it for the rest of their days.
643
00:39:01,558 --> 00:39:04,648
Call the Oscars and tell them
that all of the major awards
644
00:39:04,691 --> 00:39:07,520
will be going to Josie McCoy this year.
645
00:39:07,564 --> 00:39:11,385
Miss McCoy, the genius creative
force and I do mean force,
646
00:39:11,386 --> 00:39:13,135
behind Going Uptown,
647
00:39:13,178 --> 00:39:15,180
has not only earned herself a seat
648
00:39:15,181 --> 00:39:18,270
at the glorious table
that is Tinseltown.
649
00:39:18,314 --> 00:39:21,926
She has commandeered the
whole damn restaurant."
650
00:39:29,673 --> 00:39:31,327
This is really happening.
651
00:39:31,370 --> 00:39:32,763
I'm not dreaming.
652
00:39:32,806 --> 00:39:34,069
Josie, it's not happening.
653
00:39:35,592 --> 00:39:39,161
It happened. You made it happen.
654
00:39:39,204 --> 00:39:41,902
And as far as I'm concerned, you
put Riverdale and the Babylonium
655
00:39:41,946 --> 00:39:44,775
on the map tonight,
so thank you for that.
656
00:39:44,818 --> 00:39:47,560
And by the way, there's one
thing this reviewer got wrong.
657
00:39:48,779 --> 00:39:51,173
A star wasn't born tonight.
658
00:39:51,216 --> 00:39:52,783
You've always been a star, Josie.
659
00:39:54,785 --> 00:39:56,613
From the first second you drew breath.
660
00:39:57,744 --> 00:39:59,355
You weren't even at the hospital.
661
00:40:01,052 --> 00:40:02,184
You're not wrong though.
662
00:40:03,576 --> 00:40:05,709
We make a good team, you and I.
663
00:40:05,752 --> 00:40:08,407
Perhaps we should do this again.
664
00:40:08,451 --> 00:40:12,411
I wonder, Veronica, if you're
not just treading water here,
665
00:40:12,455 --> 00:40:15,023
managing a theater when what you
should be doing is making movies.
666
00:40:17,112 --> 00:40:22,595
Uh-huh. I see I've intrigued you.
667
00:40:22,639 --> 00:40:24,032
That's what Josie McCoy does best.
668
00:40:30,864 --> 00:40:33,215
Uncle Frank, what's going on?
669
00:40:34,912 --> 00:40:36,131
Reggie, will you give us a minute?
670
00:40:40,787 --> 00:40:41,787
What the hell is this?
671
00:40:43,877 --> 00:40:49,877
Mrs. Grundy asked us to write about
our most personal and private pain.
672
00:40:53,278 --> 00:40:57,152
"Overseas or in mountain marsh,
that's where you really are.
673
00:40:57,195 --> 00:40:58,762
You have a plot of land here at home,
674
00:41:01,504 --> 00:41:03,984
but you will always be
lost to me over there."
675
00:41:04,028 --> 00:41:06,639
Writing poetry to get with
the girl is fine. I said that.
676
00:41:08,598 --> 00:41:10,165
But writing about your father?
677
00:41:10,208 --> 00:41:13,690
Exploiting his sacrifice for
our country, for our family?
678
00:41:15,126 --> 00:41:17,085
No.
679
00:41:17,128 --> 00:41:20,871
No! You will not sully
his memory like this.
680
00:41:20,914 --> 00:41:22,699
What's wrong with me
writing about my dad?
681
00:41:22,742 --> 00:41:24,744
I mean, I wish I could still
talk to him, but I can't.
682
00:41:24,788 --> 00:41:25,788
At least this way...
683
00:41:26,529 --> 00:41:29,227
Uncle Frank, stop!
684
00:41:29,271 --> 00:41:33,666
Don't you ever write about
your father like that again.
685
00:41:36,234 --> 00:41:37,583
Am I understood?
686
00:41:49,334 --> 00:41:54,334
