The Curse 1x2

1. In 2020, the Santa Fe Reporter called your parents slumlords.

2. We're here to talk about us today, okay?

3. That was a sneak attack.

4. We can't have that airing.

5. What if we offered her something else?

6. I have some information that may be newsworthy.

7. I worked for a period of time at the Whistling River Casino.

8. All these gambling addicts coming in.

9. You think there are these rules in place to help them.

10. But are those rules actually being enforced?

11. I'm gonna need something concrete and verifiable.

12. Boring. Really boring.

13. I'm watching a guy talk about air for four minutes.

14. Just work with me a little bit.

15. You know this stuff's important to us.

16. You can't just sit here and say

17. this is the show or this isn't the show.

18. They brought up us having kids,

19. and I said it's not an urgent priority right now.

20. Well, it's interesting that you think

21. it's me who's putting on the brakes.

22. Okay. Steven says it's your turn.

23. Trust me, people are really gonna be dreaming

24. about being with you.

25. Ash?

26. - What did she say? - She said she cursed me.

27. You think you can just do whatever you want

28. and there won't be consequences?

29. This isn't helpful. This is public information already.

30. Um, why were you recording this?

31. I often record conversations.

32. They taught us that at Cornell.

33. They teach that in hospitality school?

34. Yeah, it's about self- improvement, bettering yourself.

35. You know how you can— customer service calls get recorded,

36. but you can do it with in-person interactions, too.

37. - Okay, so— - You can really learn from them

38. - if you listen back, yeah. - So here's the deal.

39. We're not gonna be able to do the story

40. unless I have the security footage of—

41. you— you told me you had it saved.

42. I told my producers we could get it.

43. It exists. It's...

44. It exists, but I don't have access to it right now.

45. I don't work there anymore.

46. I mean, you're leaving me without a lot of options.

47. Hey, I've been giving you a lot of stuff.

48. Wait, okay? Like, just— just give me a little more time, and

49. I can try to get it. All right? I don't want you to wait...

50. This has been a slow drip for two weeks.

51. I need proof that they are not protecting gambling addicts.

52. - It's on a shared drive, okay? - Okay. Mm-hmm.

53. I— I— I know the exact folder I put it in.

54. I will get it for you. I swear on my mother's life, okay?

55. Yeah, there was a drop in playtime on the main floor,

56. but oddly, the circadian lighting

57. increased play time in the high-roller areas.

58. So they're keeping it.

59. Everyone doubted me.

60. Well, why don't you just see your ideas in action, buddy?

61. Watch.

62. It's about to happen.

63. Wait for it.

64. Wait for it.

65. Fuck. Come on, man.

66. - No fuckin' way. - How could you...

67. Come on. Is it really gonna do it?

68. Yes, it's—it's really gonna do it. It is, it is.

69. Look, here you go.

70. It's getting colder and brighter, no?

71. That's not how we programmed it.

72. Well, we've been experimenting since you had it installed.

73. See, when the real sunset happens outside,

74. we try to increase the blue inside.

75. It gives you this artificial burst of energy.

76. Slight one.

77. Ah. Interesting.

78. How are those bracelets working out?

79. Ask Rex.

80. Not every player wants to wear them,

81. but the ones that do, they love it.

82. I mean, look at him, at his age,

83. not having to keep walking back and forth to the ATM.

84. It's good for him.

85. That's my guy.

86. You should be proud of yourself, Asher.

87. You really should.

88. Fifty dollars, fast bet, have fun.

89. Look, I should head back in.

90. But, uh, bowling soon, right?

91. - Yeah, yeah, for sure. Yeah. - Yeah.

92. We gotta get back in it when you get a break

93. from being a TV star, right?

94. I know, for sure. We got to.

95. Oh, man.

96. I miss everyone here so much.

97. Well, I'll pass on your love to the team.

98. Yeah. Cool. Cool.

99. I gotta...

100. I gotta razz Wandall about, uh,

101. doubting me about the lighting, huh?

102. Yeah, you do. He's, uh, he's not in today, though.

103. Ah.

104. - Too bad. - Yeah.

105. All right. Maybe, uh...

106. maybe another day, then.

107. - For sure, buddy. - Yeah.

108. - All right. I'll, uh... - I'll see you later.

109. See you later.

110. Well, right now,

111. I'm standing on Pueblo land.

112. All these drivers are coming from towns

113. going to Los Alamos.

114. All these people and...

115. they don't even know.

116. It's unbelievable how ignorant some people in this area are.

117. I mean, some of these people have lived here all their lives.

118. They've no idea.

119. And technically,

120. we really should all consider ourself visitors on this land.

121. You know, even— even those of us who live on county land.

122. Well...

123. we have to live in reality here.

124. That's long gone.

125. Of course.

126. - Of course. Of course. - But...

127. if you're bringing new people to this community,

128. there's a lot they should know.

129. I mean, they should know that these aren't public roads

130. that they're driving on every day.

131. - This is Pueblo land. - Exactly.

132. I-It's crazy that some of these title companies

133. don't even wanna issue insurance

134. because they're so concerned with what the Pueblos might do.

135. And I just wanna show the country

136. how generous and welcoming you are.

137. You know, uh, people...

138. like to romanticize us.

139. The idea of an Indian, you know?

140. But the Tewa people come from a long lineage of warriors.

141. It's in our blood. It's in mine.

142. Mine.

143. Luisa?

144. You said you wanted a picture with him?

145. Uh, we're not taking photos. We're having a conversation.

146. Oh, okay. Sorry.

147. Well, yeah, you can take a photo. It's all right.

148. Oh, is that something that, that you would want?

149. - Sure, and— - We will send it to you,

150. - of course. It's— - Use my, uh...

151. Oh, you know,

152. Luisa actually has a great camera.

153. I mean, she, she can email it to you right after.

154. Okay.

155. Ready?

156. Great. Thank you.

157. I was gonna say, my friend Cara Durand—

158. have you heard of her?

159. Cara Durand.

160. She's an artist.

161. And what you were saying before about romanticizing,

162. that's really what her artwork is all about.

163. And she is Picuris. That's a Tewa, too.

164. Wow.

165. They speak Tiwa, with an "I."

166. We're Tewa with an "E."

167. Very different languages. Very different people.

168. I am so sorry. I'm still learning.

169. Um, she's— she's actually one of my close friends, though.

170. And I really believe you would love her artwork.

171. And she's having an opening next Friday night

172. at a gallery in Santa Fe.

173. And we would love

174. if you would come as our guest.

175. If you're free. I know you're a very busy man.

176. You know,

177. there's a lot of developing in this community,

178. and no one has ever really asked us

179. if they can help us.

180. It means a lot.

181. Yeah, I can come.

182. Wonderful.

183. She'll be thrilled.

184. How did it go with Monica?

185. Good. Good. Yeah. She, uh...

186. She has everything she needs.

187. So, just to clarify,

188. we're asking Cara

189. to do this as sort of a volunteer thing, right?

190. Because Dougie says there's not gonna be money in the budget

191. for a cultural consultant.

192. Did he do the air quotes or did you?

193. Just me. Right now, so...

194. Well, we're gonna have to figure something out.

195. We're developing land in a checkerboarded area.

196. We don't have the knowledge or the background

197. to be speaking to those issues ourselves,

198. much less broadcasting them on national television.

199. - No, I— I know, I know, I know. - You promised me,

200. - we're gonna do this right. - No. Uh, yes,

201. I'm just saying I'm in this world.

202. I know so many Natives.

203. I could ask Mike, or Florence, or Elaine to be...

204. We're not hiring one of your casino buddies

205. to speak to the entirety of the Native experience.

206. How are they any different than Cara?

207. We are friends with someone who's part of our community,

208. and who happens to be Native,

209. but who I believe is about to be one

210. of the biggest names in contemporary art.

211. That's whose validation I need to feel comfortable

212. putting what we're doing on air.

213. - Okay. - Otherwise, I'm out.

214. - Okay. Okay. - I'm already getting this shit.

215. - Okay? I don't need any more. - Yeah. Yes. Okay. Okay.

216. Actually, I'm trying to decide between the coconut shrimp

217. or the fried cornmeal pancake—

218. plan, plantain crab cakes.

219. Get both.

220. Yeah. I mean, you are crazy busy.

221. Why don't you get enough food for, like, tomorrow? For...

222. - Okay. It's... - Yeah, get to-go. Yeah.

223. - Take some meals home. - No preparing.

224. - Yeah. - Let us fatten you up.

225. Oh.

226. Then, I'll get the, uh, Moroccan-spiced beef brisket...

227. - Okay. - ... and the pomegranate

228. barbecue chicken.

229. And I'll get the jerk chicken sandwich.

230. Awesome.

231. How spicy is the tomato sauce on the pita?

232. - Mild. - Mild? Okay. Yeah. That's good.

233. - Yeah. Is that okay? - Yes, Thank you.

234. Beautiful. I'll have that out for you guys.

235. Thank you.

236. Okay. Well, Cara,

237. so, we have this show that might be happening.

238. - I mean, it's not, not now. - And if it does—

239. What do you mean?

240. We asked her to come to dinner.

241. It's not like a business transaction.

242. You know, it's dinner.

243. Okay.

244. Well, it's dinner. There's no food.

245. So, I guess we need to do something until the food comes.

246. - I— Oh, I know what we can do. - What should we talk about?

247. I know what we could talk about.

248. Maybe the thing we're here for.

249. Okay.

250. Today, Amazing Architecture ...

251. - Oh, this is crazy. - ... they tagged me in a post.

252. Look at this.

253. They posted our Palmer Lane home, right?

254. And so, now I'm getting all these comments,

255. they're saying I'm ripping off Doug Aitken.

256. Can you believe...

257. I mean, you're just getting crossover from the art world,

258. and that's not your audience, so who cares?

259. My homes are art.

260. Making a clear statement.

261. You did know who Doug Aitken was, right?

262. Yes, but what we're doing is completely different.

263. My homes are reflecting the local community,

264. and his reflect nature, which is—

265. and, and can't artists be inspired by other artists?

266. Well, I mean...

267. I love this,

268. two of my favorite artists hashing it out.

269. I'm not saying I'm an artist like she's an artist.

270. Honestly, if this show happens,

271. more people are gonna know Whit's homes

272. than whoever this Doug guy is.

273. People are gonna think he's copying her.

274. I do know who Doug Aitken is, by the way, I'm just telling...

275. Wait till you see this show.

276. Your art looks so good in our homes. So beautiful.

277. Wait, in...

278. in your home, right?

279. Because if you're... if you're using my art for staging,

280. I— I wouldn't be okay with that.

281. No, no. Just in our home.

282. - Yeah, our... - It's just ours.

283. Yeah. Not the Palm—

284. - not the other ones. Yeah. - No.

285. Fuck. Uh, I'm sorry.

286. There's a work emergency.

287. - Oh! - Um...

288. - Okay. - Could you—

289. could you get my food to go?

290. I'm sorry. I'll— I'll pick it up from you later.

291. - Yes. Yeah, and we, we... - And, and I— and...

292. we could drop it off to you.

293. And we should get her some more food.

294. - I mean, she must be... - But I'm going to meet someone

295. - in Abiquiu, so... - That's fine.

296. No. To— no, we can't drop it at Abiquiu.

297. That's an hour away. Abiquiu?

298. Just drop it off at my house. I'll text you.

299. - Okay. - Thank you.

300. - Yeah. Sure. Yeah. - Okay.

301. Oh, by the way,

302. I invited the, uh, Governor of the San Pedro Pueblo

303. to your opening.

304. Great.

305. - Yeah. - Great. Um...

306. - Yeah. - ... have a good one.

307. I thought you wanted me

308. to talk to her about being the consultant?

309. Yeah, I did. I did. I mean, but she was so busy.

310. It— It wasn't the right time.

311. And then, I mean, I think I should handle

312. that conversation in the future.

313. Because the whole time you're just waiting to say it,

314. like, I could feel that energy.

315. And if I could feel it, then she could feel it.

316. Okay. Okay. And what's, what's...

317. I'm sorry. I'm just emotional right now. I'm...

318. Baby, baby, baby, what's going on?

319. I'm pregnant.

320. You're pregnant? What?

321. Oh, my God. You're pregnant?

322. I mean, uh, how did you—

323. when did you find out, or, uh...

324. Yesterday.

325. Yesterday?

326. - Yesterday? - Mm-hmm.

327. - Okay. - Yeah.

328. We— We went to bed, and we were to— together...

329. But it was so much for you.

330. You, you wanted to wait—

331. you wanted to wait to tell me, right?

332. I'm so happy.

333. - You are. - Mm-hmm.

334. - You are happy. - Mm-hmm.

335. Whit, this is it.

336. This is it.

337. Oh, hey, excuse me.

338. Can I get— uh, can we get, uh, a, a champ— a bottle of champ—

339. or one glass of champagne

340. and a ginger ale for that woman here?

341. I'm in the middle of helping somebody.

342. - I'll be over there in a moment. - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

343. Oh, you still love me, right?

344. Yes.

345. Good.

346. We're not telling anybody yet.

347. - Yes. - Mnh-mnh.

348. - My lips are sealed. - Okay.

349. Sealed with a kiss.

350. They're also not that accurate, right?

351. That's exactly right.

352. The ones on-site, you can't even trust them.

353. The ones in the station, though, that's pretty good.

354. The way it works, though,

355. let's say you just wait an hour after taking— drinking a bunch,

356. your BA is gonna go from 08 to.065.

357. Just naturally,

358. that's how your body just eats the alcohol.

359. But people say, oh, showers, coffee, sleeping it off.

360. None of that works to speed up the process. Nothing.

361. Doesn't coffee make you more alert?

362. Well, it can make you more alert, yeah,

363. but it's not gonna do anything

364. for your alcohol level in your blood.

365. Got it.

366. Time and peeing...

367. those are the only things that help.

368. Peeing is like a fucking magic trick. Oh.

369. You pee— you're on the side of the road, you pee,

370. 10%, bam, right off the bat. Just like that.

371. That makes so much sense.

372. So, because you didn't do that,

373. that's why no one talks to you anymore?

374. Well, and most of my friends are my wife's friends, honestly.

375. So...

376. I wasn't legally responsible for the crash, you know.

377. But they did their whole thing. I fell to the pressure.

378. I blew into the tube, and I was slightly over the limit.

379. So everybody, of course, was like, "Oh, you were drunk.

380. You must have caused the crash, right?"

381. But, um, honestly, it would have happened anyways.

382. I see.

383. She was T-boned on her side.

384. So because you didn't wait

385. to get to the station and blow,

386. I mean, if you would've just did that,

387. you would've had no responsibility at all.

388. I already have no responsibility, you know?

389. It's like a freak accident.

390. I happened to get hit the one time

391. I blew slightly over, you know?

392. I don't know if this is too personal.

393. Do you think if you weren't drinking that night,

394. you would've just seen the car coming?

395. He ran a red light.

396. What, do you think I drive around

397. with a crystal ball on my dashboard?

398. It's like, I'm not a fucking psychic, right?

399. Right. I... I don't know.

400. I do. It's a fair question, you know?

401. I do think about it a lot.

402. It's kind of all I think about, really.

403. That's her.

404. She was so beautiful.

405. Well, penny in the Buddha. Good luck.

406. So how'd you find this place?

407. Well, that TV show I was telling you about.

408. - Yeah. - Shoots way over there.

409. Just... just over there.

410. And I drive by this all the time,

411. and I figured, you know what?

412. I'll give it a shot.

413. Turns out it's pretty good.

414. Owner and the chef are Chinese from China.

415. So how'd you get here?

416. - I took an Uber. - Oh, yeah?

417. Hmm.

418. Hop in. I'll give you a lift. Save you some cash.

419. I... I can just take an Uber. It's okay.

420. - Really? - Yeah.

421. Come on.

422. What's the big deal, if you wanna be in a cab,

423. you can sit in the back if you want. It's no big deal.

424. Come on.

425. Are you— are you sure you're okay to drive?

426. You really think I would do that again?

427. - Okay. I guess not. - I mean...

428. Look at this, look at this. See?

429. Okay.

430. Let's do it. All right.

431. Oh, wait, wait, wait. I got it. I got it. I got it.

432. Thank you.

433. It's a Mustang.

434. Ooh.

435. So how long are you in Santa Fe for?

436. What's that?

437. How long are you in Santa Fe?

438. I honestly have no idea.

439. You know, it's been taking so fucking long for the, uh,

440. the network to get back to me

441. about whether the show I'm making is a go or not.

442. So, I don't know.

443. I thought about going back to New York,

444. but there's nothing for me there anyways.

445. I'm just not any good when I'm not working, you know.

446. Me neither.

447. When the movie theaters shut down, I went crazy.

448. I gained, like, a billion pounds.

449. It was 14, actually.

450. It's like... but it felt like a billion.

451. You know, when like, everything's...

452. it's like, whoa,

453. it's too much... you know.

454. You're...

455. You sure you're okay?

456. Yeah. Yeah.

457. You wanna open up that glove compartment for me?

458. Sure.

459. You see the little pouch in there?

460. Thank you. It's how I know I'm good to go.

461. Drum roll, please?

462. What does red mean?

463. Hold on. Let me do that one more time.

464. Just... sometimes they're not accurate.

465. Right.

466. Okay. It's 0.10.

467. That's.02 decimal over the limit.

468. - So I'm over the limit. - Oh.

469. And I will pull over,

470. and we'll walk the rest of the way, right?

471. Do you want me to hold that for you?

472. Oh, yeah. That would be great. Thank you.

473. Just gonna make sure

474. we're safely off the side of the road here.

475. And, great.

476. And... whoa, you're only a mile from here, right? So...

477. Yeah.

478. You know, I always like to

479. walk on my way in a new city.

480. - Yeah. - Always see the...

481. the landscape that way.

482. Most guys would have kept going, but you pulled over.

483. I like that.

484. Really it's like, uh...

485. Yeah, definitely. Definitely.

486. Yeah, yeah.

487. - Ash. Hey. - Hey, Wandall.

488. - Good to see you. - Great to see you, too.

489. - Yeah. How you been? - Ready to talk some business?

490. Yeah, yeah, let's go. Yeah, thank you.

491. It's pretty much a turnkey operation.

492. I was telling Bill, you know, zero upfront costs.

493. Kids Quest will build out the entire space for us.

494. It's just, we just need to pick the features we want.

495. So, you know, you could have a ticket arcade,

496. prize zone, basketball hoops, you know, whatever.

497. And if you're a single mom or dad, as we know,

498. many of our top players are, it's pretty much a no-brainer

499. in terms of increasing playtime.

500. And that's not just for the kids.

501. So, outside of the players' club incentive,

502. then people would just pay an hourly fee.

503. Yeah, and Kids Quest will take a cut of that.

504. But the stickiness is off the charts.

505. And no other casino in New Mexico is doing this.

506. We would be the first.

507. Okay.

508. Well, we can definitely look into this.

509. Great. And I would be happy to,

510. you know, oversee this

511. and come back on a part-time basis,

512. if you'd like, to help facilitate and oversee.

513. I could— I could do it— start this week even. Yeah.

514. Well, we'll let you know

515. if we need your help with anything,

516. but I wouldn't consider this

517. an urgent matter for us, you know?

518. Okay.

519. You don't like kids?

520. Um, I do have some other ideas.

521. Actually, I was thinking of

522. maybe a viral video for the casino.

523. We're good. We're good. We'll be in touch. Bill.

524. Why don't I walk you out, Ash.

525. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

526. I was right about that circadian lighting, huh?

527. Yeah, with a couple of tweaks.

528. Couple of tweaks? So you don't give me credit?

529. Oh, I was going to tell you how funny I thought this was.

530. "I'm just so sorry it took us 400 years

531. to figure out how to beat them."

532. - Thanks for stopping by. - Yeah, yeah. Good to see you.

533. - Come on, buddy. - Yeah, yeah.

534. You all right, buddy?

535. Yeah.

536. Come on.

537. Oh. I...

538. I have to show you this viral video I just saw.

539. It is so funny.

540. Here, let's look at it in your computer quick,

541. before we go.

542. Just show me on your phone.

543. I just— my battery's dead.

544. Well, it's not dead, but it's low,

545. and I just need the juice for later.

546. Here, it'll be quick. It'll be quick.

547. Uh, just text it to me later.

548. What?

549. Ash?

550. I forgot to tell you.

551. Whit's pregnant. Whit and I are—

552. - I'm gonna be a dad. - You're gonna be a dad?

553. - Yeah. - Dude, congratulations.

554. Yeah. Here. Let's go.

555. Look at the video on your computer.

556. It's so funny. You gotta see it.

557. - All right. - Come on.

558. - Isn't that... - Yup. Yeah, it's crazy. I know.

559. But if you see her, don't tell her.

560. You cannot tell her, because I promised,

561. like, we're not telling anyone.

562. Yeah, I promise. I promise. Yeah.

563. Okay.

564. Hi. Hey, good to see you guys.

565. Hey.

566. Okay.

567. All right. So what am I searching for?

568. Um, here, let me try the keywords.

569. I'm not sure if I remember them exactly—

570. it's a jogger fail.

571. But yeah, here, pull up a chair.

572. Jogger... fail.

573. Ah, there. There it is. Full screen?

574. Yeah.

575. Ahh, I've seen this.

576. Yeah, she slips on the ice? Yeah, so funny, right?

577. Yeah.

578. I caught up with

579. Chelsea and Michael that were jogging by...

580. And I said, "What are you doing running?"

581. You're saying it was really good out?

582. That's the perfect texture for running,

583. very low impact, and it's dry snow

584. so your feet don't get wet.

585. What have you seen when you've been out running?

586. It's been a lot of fun, there's a lot of other runners.

587. And more skiers than runners for sure,

588. I think they got a little bit of the advantage

589. with the whole stride and glide thing,

590. but it's too nice to not be out here.

591. She's like talking before it's like—

592. it's like, um, she's just like not really thinking about...

593. - It's like, I love jogging. - Oh.

594. This is a real chunk of snow,

595. giving Hood a run for its money.

596. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

597. We haven't had many snow days in our lives,

598. so this is pretty exciting.

599. Go ahead and keep on the run, and sorry to have kept you,

600. but I appreciate you guys talking with us.

601. - All right, thanks. - Yeah, here we go.

602. There she goes, there she goes.

603. sledding, just enjoying it.

604. - Oh, Ash. Ah, Ash. Damn it. - Sorry, sorry, sorry, man.

605. - Come on, Ash. - Okay. Yeah, yeah.

606. Sorry, it's just so funny. No, no, no. It's, uh, here.

607. It's all right. Nothing really got on me.

608. It just— Made a mess, man.

609. Did it get on you? Sorry.

610. - My bad. - Yeah. I got it.

611. Oh. Oh, man.

612. What were you thinking, man?

613. It's not that bad.

614. Yeah, to you.

615. What the fuck are you doing, Ash?

616. You're afraid to get a little wet?

617. It's just Gatorade.

618. Just joking around, come on. Okay. Look we're even.

619. We're even, look, more on me than's on you.

620. So... just joking around.

621. Well, I'll get some paper towel.

622. It's okay. I'll go get some paper towels. It's fine.

623. No, damn it. No, no, no, no.

624. Just stay there. You're gonna get it all over the floor.

625. Okay.

626. Hey, trust me.

627. This isn't as bad as smelling your farts, okay?

628. You got it easy.

629. Yeah.

630. - Ass. - Yeah.

631. Ash?

632. Yeah. Yeah. One sec. One sec.

633. What's going on, man?

634. One sec.

635. Ash.

636. Okay.

637. Sorry, I had to take my shirt off, it's soaking wet.

638. - Okay. - Thanks.

639. Here, sorry about that. Yeah.

640. Like old times, huh?

641. The shit you used to pull.

642. Hey, man.

643. - Whoa, Ash man. - How you doing?

644. Hey. Good to see you.

645. How you doing?

646. Down 200.

647. Twenty-one!

648. There you go.

649. Wanna get a drink later? My treat.

650. I can't tonight. Um...

651. - Bust. - So you just, uh,

652. hanging out in town until we hear about the show or...

653. Fourteen.

654. I got a flight in the works, you know?

655. When are you flying out?

656. Seventeen.

657. It's in the works.

658. I'm trying to piggyback some things together, you know?

659. - Twenty-one. - Work stuff.

660. You got another job?

661. You do?

662. No? Okay.

663. That's cool. Um...

664. Always... always got my hat in the ring, you know?

665. - Name in the hat. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

666. - Name in the ring. - Fourteen.

667. You should hit, 14 against 10.

668. Twenty-two.

669. Sorry.

670. Well, don't leave us until we hear.

671. We need you on board the show.

672. Yeah.

673. All right. I'll, uh, see you later.

674. Let me catch a new table. No offense, all right?

675. Would you like to clear out?

676. - No, I'm good. - Thank you. I appreciate it.

677. My man.

678. How much did I give you, by the way?

679. Five dollars, sir.

680. That's good.

681. - My man. What's your name? - Javier.

682. Nice to see you. Let's do it.

683. Pressure is looking good so far.

684. No sign of any leaks.

685. Freckle. Another bird hit, when you're done in there.

686. Ah, shit!

687. Okay, I'll clean it up later.

688. There's a smudge on the glass, too.

689. God, she's so good, it's annoying.

690. She didn't make these, right?

691. No, that's the point.

692. These are actually sold at baseball games.

693. So the piece is like...

694. re-contextualizing?

695. And she stole all of these from different stores.

696. They're all stolen.

697. It's brilliant because if the baseball league

698. wants to charge her with theft,

699. they would be forced to address their ignorance.

700. I love this piece.

701. Are you an artist?

702. Sometimes.

703. Have you seen Cara's work before?

704. We own four of her pieces.

705. We ask that you refrain from talking

706. about your experience inside the structure.

707. You may enter the structure.

708. Why did you do that?

709. What?

710. Why did you do that?

711. Was I not supposed to eat it?

712. Your time is done.

713. Hmm. Okay.

714. Thank you. That was— that was good.

715. We ask that you refrain from talking

716. about your experience inside the structure.

717. Of course.

718. Mm-hmm.

719. You may now enter the structure.

720. Hi. Hi.

721. Oh, I'm so happy you came.

722. Oh, it's wild, huh?

723. - Yes. - Yeah.

724. These pieces are... interesting.

725. Mm-hmm. Like I was telling you.

726. Um, Cara's work is about her struggles as a...

727. - as a Native artist, and, uh... - Hmm.

728. This object here, um,

729. was actually made by a non-indigenous creator.

730. It's from a summer camp.

731. And, um...

732. that's why she's chosen to damage the object.

733. Mm-hmm.

734. And it's interesting, you know, because, um,

735. the way that she... she gets her art grants.

736. These... these organizations, they... they want her

737. to create art

738. related to her indigenous heritage exclusively.

739. - Which can be so stifling... - Hmm.

740. for an artist, you know?

741. Of course, there are some artists that...

742. they really embrace that, which is great.

743. But really is just

744. such a fetishization of the culture

745. by the establishment.

746. It's very... Marjorie! Hi!

747. Oh, Governor, this is... this is Marjorie.

748. Uh, Marjorie can speak to the work

749. much better than I can.

750. Marjorie, this is... this is James Toledo,

751. he's the Governor of the San Pedro Pueblo.

752. Thank you so much for coming.

753. - So— - But... let's see,

754. maybe you might wanna go to that line there,

755. so you could see the performance.

756. Um, just a heads-up,

757. I don't... I don't think you're supposed

758. to eat the turkey in it.

759. But seriously, I didn't say anything about it.

760. You didn't hear it from me.

761. I'll... I'll see you soon.

762. Thank you.

763. That's it?

764. Ash, just tell me.

765. Did she say, "Why did you do that?"

766. We're not supposed to talk

767. about our experience inside the structure.

768. Just tell me. What did she say to you?

769. - I'm not gonna say. - Did she say anything?

770. We're not supposed to talk about it.

771. I wanna obey the rules.

772. It's not funny. Tell me.

773. Oh, I like this piece.

774. There was, like, two sand bars over there.

775. We just started a little early on.

776. Sorry, sorry to interrupt. You were amazing.

777. Was I too intense for you?

778. No! Oh, my God.

779. No, it was like— it was the best.

780. Oh, cool.

781. Yeah, the people who came were perfect.

782. - Totally. - Yeah.

783. So I was thinking, like, you know,

784. maybe just going to bed or something.

785. Okay. Okay. - Does that sound cool?

786. Better than those other options.

787. - Yeah. Totally. - For sure.

788. I think we should just— we should go. Yeah.

789. Okay, then. Let's see what we've got.

790. Oh, she got her test results from Quest.

791. Do you need to see those?

792. Oh, no. You can show those to Dr. Brown.

793. - Okay. Okay. - I'm okay for the day.

794. Uh, when will Dr. Brown be back?

795. He gets in on Monday.

796. Okay. So this is gonna feel a little cold,

797. and you're gonna feel some pressure, so just breathe.

798. Okay.

799. Okay, now. Where's that little guy?

800. Or girl.

801. Okay.

802. You're doing great. Just keep breathing.

803. What's that black circle there? Is that the...

804. Uh, that's a fertilized egg.

805. - Okay. - Oh.

806. Hmm.

807. So uncomfortable. Um...

808. Uh, have you had any previous miscarriages?

809. I... I have not.

810. How about abortions?

811. Um, isn't that in my chart?

812. Well, I'm sure it is.

813. Uh, would you like me to grab it?

814. No, no. Um,

815. uh, yes, yes. If your— the answer is yes, yeah.

816. How many?

817. Okay. Well, I wanna show you something.

818. All right. The good news is, you were able to get pregnant,

819. and you will be able to get pregnant again.

820. Okay.

821. The bad news for this round is the egg

822. didn't quite reach the uterus before it got fertilized.

823. Mmm.

824. This is what we call an ectopic,

825. and you're gonna have to get a shot to stop the cell growth.

826. Now, we don't want a fetus growing into the fallopian tube.

827. But you're young and you can try again in six weeks.

828. - Okay? - Try... try again?

829. Meaning...?

830. The pregnancy is not viable.

831. I'm so sorry.

832. Hey, it's okay, it's okay.

833. No, I don't, yeah. Are you okay?

834. Mm-hmm. Yeah.

835. It's okay, it's okay.

836. You haven't had any bleeding?

837. No.

838. Do I need the shot today, or can I wait for Dr. Brown?

839. It's something I recommend

840. you take care of immediately.

841. I'd like to wait for Dr. Brown.

842. - Of course. - Okay.

843. Just so you know,

844. this... this is a normal occurrence,

845. - this happens all the time. - Mm-hmm.

846. You guys are doing a great job and,

847. again, just in six weeks.

848. - Okay? - Yeah. Yeah.

849. It's normal.

850. Well, at least we know we can have one.

851. I wanted this one.

852. What if instead of the solid mirror exterior

853. on Loma Vista, we did a mosaic?

854. Pueblo style with little pieces of reflective glass

855. that are embedded in plaster.

856. I don't think I've seen that design before.

857. I should be comforting you, not you comforting me.

858. We will have a baby.

859. We just need to try again.

860. She said six weeks, we have to wait.

861. Okay. I'm gonna put it in my calendar right now.

862. Six weeks.

863. And then I'm gonna go crazy on you.

864. Six weeks isn't that long. We've gone longer.

865. I'm also gonna download the tracker app.

866. I'm gonna start tracking you.

867. I like how you fight for us.

868. You know you can tell me anything, right?

869. Of course.
