1. Okay.Copy !req
2. Where are you? Oh.Copy !req
3. - Ah!Copy !req
4. Whoa. Batman and Robin!Copy !req
5. You notice
anything different about us?Copy !req
6. You want to put on this one?Copy !req
7. It's Batman's mommy.Copy !req
8. Cute.Copy !req
9. - I don't celebrate
Halloween.Copy !req
10. - What?
- I don't celebrate
Halloween.Copy !req
11. - You don't celebrate
Halloween?
- No.Copy !req
12. Oh. Was there a reason?Copy !req
13. Um... Well, I— Because it's
the highest satanic holidayCopy !req
14. of the year.Copy !req
15. So the Satanists do sacrifices
on this day.Copy !req
16. - There's sacrifices?
- Yes.Copy !req
17. I thought it was just going door
to door for candy.Copy !req
18. Should you—
Did you want to put on this?Copy !req
19. No.Copy !req
20. Uh, Mommy isn't gonna
put on a costume,Copy !req
21. - okay?
- Why?Copy !req
22. Mommy doesn't, uh,
celebrate Halloween.Copy !req
23. - Oh.
- I guess there's a lotCopy !req
24. of ghosts and that's scary
for Mommy, maybe.Copy !req
25. Yeah.Copy !req
26. I've never seen that
celebrated anywhere.Copy !req
27. Because you won't see it
because it's underground.Copy !req
28. But where does it happen?Copy !req
29. It happens at places
like Bohemian GroveCopy !req
30. and lots of different places—
they're—Copy !req
31. Have you ever heard
of Satanists?Copy !req
32. - Yes.
- You should Google the origins.Copy !req
33. - I saw
another Batman mask.
- Okay, I had no idea.Copy !req
34. Nathan, where have you been
all this...Copy !req
35. Where have you been?Copy !req
36. I thought it was just
trick or treating, really.Copy !req
37. I didn't think it was like...Copy !req
38. - There was a—
- Not everything is make-believe.Copy !req
39. Some things are real.Copy !req
40. Okay.Copy !req
41. You have to open
your eyes to reality.Copy !req
42. I had been a father
for two days now,Copy !req
43. and I was still getting
my bearings.Copy !req
44. Angela had such a grand vision
for her future life,Copy !req
45. and I was just starting
to understand what it meantCopy !req
46. to be a part of it.Copy !req
47. She saw herself living
as a homesteader,Copy !req
48. which she told me
was a lifestyleCopy !req
49. of self-sufficiency.Copy !req
50. - Leafy greens.
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
51. - Um, root veggies.
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
52. - Look, tract—
- And some flowers.Copy !req
53. - The tractor.
- Flowers.Copy !req
54. That meant there
was a lot to do in the farm.Copy !req
55. But I noticed it was mainly me
doing itCopy !req
56. while she was in the houseCopy !req
57. raising our now
three-year-old son.Copy !req
58. The water needs
to be evenly distributed. Um...Copy !req
59. - You can run a line
or run a hose.
- Okay.Copy !req
60. And make sure they getCopy !req
61. - down to the roots.
- Okay.Copy !req
62. I'm not much
of a gardener,Copy !req
63. and I definitely don't know
anything about irrigation,Copy !req
64. but Angela seemed to prefer
being on childcare duty.Copy !req
65. - Thank you, Adam.
- Which made sense.Copy !req
66. She was good at it.Copy !req
67. - Hello.
- Here are the eggsCopy !req
68. - from the coop.
- Oh, nice.Copy !req
69. - Hey, Adam.
- Hey. Who's that?Copy !req
70. But for this rehearsal
to function,Copy !req
71. I needed this to feel
like a real family.Copy !req
72. I just hoped
that I could make that happenCopy !req
73. with everything else
I had going on.Copy !req
74. This is where he, you know,
everyday,Copy !req
75. I'm wearing the necklace
like this and he's in this urn.Copy !req
76. These his ashes?Copy !req
77. - Yeah, his ashes right in here.
- Oh.Copy !req
78. Yep, so both of my grandpas
are here.Copy !req
79. What's that other thing
on the necklace?Copy !req
80. - That's the Punisher emblem.
- What's that about?Copy !req
81. I like the PunisherCopy !req
82. just because he's, uh...
You know,Copy !req
83. he takes the law
into his own handsCopy !req
84. to, you know, punish the people
that wronged him.Copy !req
85. - I had a numberCopy !req
86. of rehearsals already lined up
when I moved into the house.Copy !req
87. Which meant
I was now havingCopy !req
88. to balance my time between work
and family.Copy !req
89. - Nice to meet you, Patrick.
- He's an actor,Copy !req
90. - he'll be playing your brother.
- Okay, cool.Copy !req
91. This guy
I met named PatrickCopy !req
92. had an unresolved issue
with his brother,Copy !req
93. who is the executorCopy !req
94. of their late
grandfather's will.Copy !req
95. You know, my grandpa
in the will, he said,Copy !req
96. you know, if I'm going gonna
be dating a gold digger,Copy !req
97. that I shouldn't be allowed
my money to protect it.Copy !req
98. - It said in the will?
- Yeah.Copy !req
99. - You can't date a gold digger?
- Yeah.Copy !req
100. And my brother considersCopy !req
101. all the girls I've dated
recently,Copy !req
102. including the current one,
that, uh, she's a gold digger
out for money.Copy !req
103. Can I get the Caniac Combo?Copy !req
104. Patrick wanted to change
his brother's mindCopy !req
105. about his girlfriend being
a gold diggerCopy !req
106. at a Raising Cane's Chicken
Finger restaurant.Copy !req
107. A place their grandpa used
to take themCopy !req
108. as an annual family tradition
when he was alive.Copy !req
109. He said if you are
with somebodyCopy !req
110. that can't be trusted
with money,Copy !req
111. then I'm not supposed to give it
to you.Copy !req
112. And as long as you're with Nes,
I'm not giving it to you.Copy !req
113. - Dude, yeah,
but that's if she was...
- That's a clause.Copy !req
114. a gold digger, but she's not.Copy !req
115. She's a penny pincher.
She's a Jew about it,Copy !req
116. pretty much. If I— You know,Copy !req
117. and you know how the Jews are
'bout that kind of thing.Copy !req
118. She just penny pinchesCopy !req
119. and she's not one to hurt me
in that regard.Copy !req
120. Yeah, I'm trying
to just calibrate,
because to me it's like,Copy !req
121. "Oh, that's an anti-Semitic
stereotype."Copy !req
122. - Okay, I got you.
- You know, but, um...Copy !req
123. it is a personal conversation
with you and your brotherCopy !req
124. and I do want you
to be yourself.Copy !req
125. Yeah, my brother would say
similar things,Copy !req
126. - so, yeah. So, I mean...
- It would work? Okay, so...Copy !req
127. It's like, "Oh, you know,
don't be so Jewish like
to me on things."Copy !req
128. - Yeah, I mean if that's how
you communicate...
- Yeah.Copy !req
129. I don't want you
to use languageCopy !req
130. that wouldn't be effective,Copy !req
131. - so...
- Yeah, then...Copy !req
132. Patrick's
rehearsal presentedCopy !req
133. some fascinating dilemmas,
that I saw as an opportunityCopy !req
134. to advance the art
of rehearsing.Copy !req
135. So at what point
in the conversationCopy !req
136. would you wanna sayCopy !req
137. - this is— a Jew?
- That— Yeah.Copy !req
138. The biggest challenge
was that he couldn't seemCopy !req
139. to follow any coherent strategy,
and I couldn't figure out why?Copy !req
140. He's
an air traffic controller...Copy !req
141. - Yeah.
- ... I mean, he needs logic,Copy !req
142. that's— He keeps planes
from crashing.Copy !req
143. - Yeah.
- And you know that—
I don't know how muchCopy !req
144. that argument would just...Copy !req
145. - Yeah.
- An arm wrestle's
gonna work with him, or...Copy !req
146. Oh, yeah, you know, I mean,
I get what you're saying.Copy !req
147. On my first day
with him, I stayed pretty late.Copy !req
148. And when I got home,Copy !req
149. - Adam was already in bed.
- There you go.Copy !req
150. You just did it
when you moved the small handCopy !req
151. under the big hand.Copy !req
152. And by the time Angela
finished her bedtime story,Copy !req
153. it was too late for mine.Copy !req
154. This was actually a book
that Adam picked off the shelfCopy !req
155. - from the book up—
the shelf upstairs.
- Oh, really?Copy !req
156. Yep, he just picked this one
off the shelf.Copy !req
157. And you've been
reading it?Copy !req
158. Yeah, I've just been lookingCopy !req
159. at the different kinds
of flowers in there.Copy !req
160. Cool. Um...Copy !req
161. Does he ever ask about me
or anything?Copy !req
162. Uh...
I don't think so.Copy !req
163. Not that I could think
at the moment.Copy !req
164. Hey! Good morning.Copy !req
165. - How are you?
- I'm great, thank you.Copy !req
166. How much?Copy !req
167. - Is that enough?
- Yep.Copy !req
168. I told Angela
that I would take AdamCopy !req
169. for the day to give her time
to work on her Etsy businessCopy !req
170. selling home-made skin creams.Copy !req
171. - Hey, here's your tea.
- Hi.Copy !req
172. - Oh, thanks.
- And here's some cerealCopy !req
173. - for breakfast. Okay.
- Thank you. Thanks.Copy !req
174. Do you know
if it's gluten-free?Copy !req
175. Um...Copy !req
176. - There are
several componentsCopy !req
177. to a good rehearsal.Copy !req
178. So far, my focus has been
on practicing the actionsCopy !req
179. and the words that you're likely
to encounter in your real life.Copy !req
180. This is where Daddy works.Copy !req
181. - This is Adam, he's my son.
- Hey, Adam.Copy !req
182. She's not doing that at all,
dude. You don't know her.Copy !req
183. - She is a gold digger.
- Dude, she's not.Copy !req
184. But I've recently come
to realizeCopy !req
185. I've been neglecting
one key componentCopy !req
186. of every crucial life event.Copy !req
187. Feelings.Copy !req
188. When I did my rehearsal
with Core,Copy !req
189. he was able to master the verbal
and physical choreographyCopy !req
190. of his situation.Copy !req
191. I've decided to give you
a little buzz.Copy !req
192. But when it came time
to confess his lieCopy !req
193. at the real barCopy !req
194. to his real friend,
he completely froze.Copy !req
195. It's like you could see
the adrenaline runningCopy !req
196. through his veins.Copy !req
197. The pressure of the real
situation finally hit him.Copy !req
198. And this is something
that never happened onceCopy !req
199. in his rehearsal. Which means,Copy !req
200. I failed to prepare him
for how he would feel.Copy !req
201. Me spending time with Adam
has only confirmed this theory.Copy !req
202. I'm acting like a dad,
but I definitelyCopy !req
203. don't feel like one,
and that's a problem.Copy !req
204. So, how can I prepare PatrickCopy !req
205. for the feeling of sitting
across from someoneCopy !req
206. who's withholding an inheritance
he feels entitled to?Copy !req
207. Well, there's a part
of this rehearsalCopy !req
208. I've been keeping secret
from PatrickCopy !req
209. to accomplish exactly this.Copy !req
210. - Hey, Pat.
- Mm-hmm?Copy !req
211. Hey, man. My family barn's
not too far from here.Copy !req
212. - Mm-hmm.
- And there's a generatorCopy !req
213. that I have to actually move
out of that barn.Copy !req
214. Yeah, I can help you move it.Copy !req
215. After today's rehearsal,Copy !req
216. I had the actor playing
Patrick's brother ask PatrickCopy !req
217. out of character to help him
move an old generatorCopy !req
218. at his grandpa's barn.Copy !req
219. - I'm Johnny. Patrick.
- Patrick.Copy !req
220. - Nice to meet you.
- Pleased to meet you.Copy !req
221. Thanks for coming out.Copy !req
222. But this is not
the actor's real grandpa.Copy !req
223. This grandpa is also an actor,
but Patrick doesn't know that.Copy !req
224. They're filming me.
It's a documentary.Copy !req
225. No, I know, they're just...Copy !req
226. - All right. Nice.
- Yeah.Copy !req
227. - That's it, yeah?
- Yeah.Copy !req
228. - "Date night"?
- Yeah.Copy !req
229. - I have to go. I promise—
- I'll help you out.Copy !req
230. - Are you sure?
- Yeah. I can help out.Copy !req
231. Dude, that's not his job
to do. It's your job!Copy !req
232. - You can help me with this?
- Yeah, I can help you out.
What do you need?Copy !req
233. And that's when
the grandpa reveals that beneathCopy !req
234. the floorboards is a map leading
to some gold that he had buriedCopy !req
235. on his property years ago
to avoid taxes.Copy !req
236. Yeah.Copy !req
237. - Yeah.Copy !req
238. Over the next
several hours I needed PatrickCopy !req
239. and this old man to form
a bond.Copy !req
240. Yeah.Copy !req
241. A bond strong enough
that will result in this grandpaCopy !req
242. including Patrick in his will.Copy !req
243. Just days before he drops dead
of natural causes.Copy !req
244. So then, the only thing standing
in the way of PatrickCopy !req
245. getting this inheritance
is the wills executor.Copy !req
246. The actor playing
Patrick's brother.Copy !req
247. Giving Patrick's rehearsal
the exact same stakes,Copy !req
248. and hopefully,
the exact same feelingsCopy !req
249. - as his reality.Copy !req
250. Okay, okay.Copy !req
251. But before meeting up
with them,Copy !req
252. I had to take Adam home
for his nap.Copy !req
253. Hey.Copy !req
254. Yeah, I was just thinking...Copy !req
255. I don't know if you'd be open
to a part-time nanny maybeCopy !req
256. - and that would allow us to—
- Oh, a part-time nanny?Copy !req
257. Yeah. I would be open to that.Copy !req
258. That way you
could do your workCopy !req
259. and I could do mine.Copy !req
260. Yeah, I think
that's a good idea.Copy !req
261. If we can find a person
we trust.Copy !req
262. Yeah, okay.
I'll see you later though.Copy !req
263. - Okay, see you later, Nathan.
- Yeah. Okay.Copy !req
264. - Thanks.
- Thanks.Copy !req
265. You're good to put Adam
to bed?Copy !req
266. - Yes.
- Okay, cool.Copy !req
267. Patrick and the old man
had been searching for the goldCopy !req
268. for hours. Two men in the woods
building trust as only men do.Copy !req
269. Yeah...Copy !req
270. But before finding it,
there was one more thingCopy !req
271. I hoped would cement their bond.Copy !req
272. Patrick frequently cited
changing his grandpa's diaperCopy !req
273. in his final years as evidenceCopy !req
274. of why he deserved
his inheritance.Copy !req
275. I fucking changed
his diapers, dude.
You never changed a diaper.Copy !req
276. Whenever he went
to the bathroom, you know,Copy !req
277. he'd call me, say, "Hey, yo,
I need to change my underwear,"Copy !req
278. you know, new boxers.Copy !req
279. I'm over there
wiping grandpa's ass, dude,Copy !req
280. while we were watching
Dragon Ball Z.Copy !req
281. I wanted Patrick
to have a similar experienceCopy !req
282. with this grandpa.Copy !req
283. - Yup.Copy !req
284. It was a beautiful moment,Copy !req
285. but I couldn't help but feel sad
knowing that this old manCopy !req
286. would soon be dead,
and I was the oneCopy !req
287. who would have to break
the news.Copy !req
288. - Ah! There you go!Copy !req
289. Fuck!Copy !req
290. - Yep.Copy !req
291. Nice.Copy !req
292. Yeah.Copy !req
293. Hey, guys. Um...Copy !req
294. So, we just got a call
from Isaac, the actor playingCopy !req
295. Patrick's brother, and sadly,
he's had a death in the family,Copy !req
296. so we're gonna take the day off
from rehearsing today.Copy !req
297. - Cool.
- Um...Copy !req
298. Let's go home and...Copy !req
299. How about we spend some time
with our families and...Copy !req
300. cherish every moment because...Copy !req
301. you never know when it's gonna
be your last.Copy !req
302. - Sorry about that. Yeah.
- No worries.Copy !req
303. Pick up on a different day?Copy !req
304. - Yeah, definitely. Yeah.
- Yeah.Copy !req
305. Oh, Hermie! Good to see you.Copy !req
306. Hey, I heard what
you said. Have you ever lied?Copy !req
307. Then I can't believe
anything you say.Copy !req
308. Why not?Copy !req
309. - All right. Isaac, everyone.Copy !req
310. - Yeah.
- Yeah.Copy !req
311. - Thanks for coming in.
- Oh thanks, man,
I appreciate it.Copy !req
312. You sure you're okay
to rehearse today?Copy !req
313. Yeah. Yeah, yeah,
I mean,Copy !req
314. yeah, I wanna get back into it.Copy !req
315. It'll take my mind
off my grandpa.Copy !req
316. - Okay. Okay, cool.
- Yeah.Copy !req
317. Um, we're just back
at the table?Copy !req
318. - Yeah, yeah.
- Hey, dude.Copy !req
319. - I'm sorry, man.
- Okay, thank you. Appreciate it.Copy !req
320. I mean, I know you guys got
to spend some time together so.Copy !req
321. Yeah, it was cool,
you know?Copy !req
322. He obviously...
He obviously liked you.Copy !req
323. - Thanks, man.Copy !req
324. The foundation
had been laid.Copy !req
325. And Patrick
was about to be thrustCopy !req
326. into the exact situation
he had come to rehearse.Copy !req
327. Yeah, there was something
that I wantedCopy !req
328. - to talk to you about...
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
329. before we started today,
which was...Copy !req
330. So, I went to the hospital
and saw my grandpa...Copy !req
331. - Mm-hmm.
- ... before he passed and he...Copy !req
332. told me he was pretty adamant
about that he wanted youCopy !req
333. to have some of his gold?Copy !req
334. Yeah. He was really, you know,
excited about finding it,Copy !req
335. like, we found it
from found his mapCopy !req
336. - and everything and just—
- I mean, he clearly wantedCopy !req
337. - you to have it.
- Yeah.Copy !req
338. So, you guys made some kind
of connection, which is great.Copy !req
339. - Mm-hmm.
- It's awesome.Copy !req
340. I'll never forget that.
You know, that was awesome.Copy !req
341. - Yeah.
- You know?Copy !req
342. So, I— I mean,
I want to honor that,Copy !req
343. but also, I feel
a little bit uncomfortableCopy !req
344. giving you the gold
because everything I knowCopy !req
345. about Nessa being
a gold digger...Copy !req
346. makes me feel likeCopy !req
347. if I give you the gold,
what's to stop herCopy !req
348. from just taking it
and leaving you.Copy !req
349. - Nessa isn't a gold diggerCopy !req
350. 'cause you know—Copy !req
351. But I mean, like,
he wanted it to go to you...Copy !req
352. - Right.
- ... and I'm
a little bit afraidCopy !req
353. that, like, Nessa being
a gold digger,Copy !req
354. - she's just—
- In regard to Nessa
being a gold-digger,Copy !req
355. she's not. And I would just say
that, you know, I did say...Copy !req
356. - I did earn it. She was—
- I mean, I feel bad 'cause likeCopy !req
357. if we hadn't had
this conversation...Copy !req
358. - Yeah.
- ... about Nessa's past,Copy !req
359. like, I wouldn't even know
to think this but—Copy !req
360. But you don't know her,
so she's like a nobody to you.Copy !req
361. All I know is, like,
what you told me about her.Copy !req
362. Yeah, I told you great things
about her too,Copy !req
363. so I mean, why are you
only picking on one side?Copy !req
364. I could tell Patrick
was getting quite worked up,Copy !req
365. so I took him aside and said
he could deal with this stuffCopy !req
366. on his own time,
so we could begin rehearsing.Copy !req
367. - Okay.Copy !req
368. - Hey.
- Hey, Chris.Copy !req
369. - How's it going?
- You started without me.Copy !req
370. Mm. I mean, you were taking
a second longer, but it's okay.Copy !req
371. All right.
What do you need to talk about?Copy !req
372. I'm telling you right now,
Nessa's not a gold digger.Copy !req
373. She's been helping me out,
you know,Copy !req
374. and my life has been better
because of her.Copy !req
375. You should be able to say,
"Hey, look, you know what,"Copy !req
376. you believe me on that. Okay?Copy !req
377. Right, well, I— But I mean,
I think in Nessa's case, like,Copy !req
378. she's hoping that you get
this inheritance money, right?Copy !req
379. That, like, you're trying
to give—Copy !req
380. Well, I wish you could
trust me more.Copy !req
381. You know, I'm sorry
that you have any resentmentCopy !req
382. built up towards me,
but, you know...Copy !req
383. you're still
my younger brother,Copy !req
384. and I love you, you know.Copy !req
385. Congratulations for doing
everything you're doing,Copy !req
386. you know.Copy !req
387. I feel like we just—Copy !req
388. we don't have
that communication no more.Copy !req
389. And I wish we did sometimes.Copy !req
390. I wasn't sure
what strategy Patrick was using,Copy !req
391. but it wasn't one
we had rehearsed.Copy !req
392. You know, 'cause it's, like,
I can't— Dude, I can't grieve.Copy !req
393. I can't— I haven't been able
to grieveCopy !req
394. 'cause it's been
lawyers fightingCopy !req
395. this whole time
since he passed away.Copy !req
396. I have yet to have the day
where I just sitCopy !req
397. and cry about it.Copy !req
398. Yeah, I'm tired of having
little spurts about it.Copy !req
399. I want it to be one and done.Copy !req
400. So if you could just...Copy !req
401. find it in your heart,
how Big Wilf
would've wanted you to,Copy !req
402. and just give me my portion.Copy !req
403. Where I don't have
to fight you on it,Copy !req
404. where I don't have
to call you about it.Copy !req
405. I could just handle it my way
and it'd be done.Copy !req
406. That's what I want.Copy !req
407. I think that's what
he would want.Copy !req
408. So, please.
We're brothers, you know,Copy !req
409. we're supposed
to be working together.Copy !req
410. I'm just tired of living like
it's the day after he died.Copy !req
411. So, please, just let me move on,
man. Just let me have it.Copy !req
412. - Okay.Copy !req
413. And all right, it's your life,
it's your money,Copy !req
414. it's what grandpa wanted
for you to have...Copy !req
415. - Yeah.
- ... in the long run, so...Copy !req
416. - You're a man,Copy !req
417. and you deserve
to make your own decisions.Copy !req
418. - Thank you, Chris. Yeah.
- Yeah, man.Copy !req
419. - Okay, give me a hug.
- Yeah.Copy !req
420. Thank you, Chris.Copy !req
421. - I love you, brother.
- I love you too.Copy !req
422. All right, all right.
I'm done crying.Copy !req
423. Thank you.Copy !req
424. Something had happened
inside Patrick,Copy !req
425. and it seemed like
we had made a breakthrough.Copy !req
426. But this would only be a success
if he could repeat itCopy !req
427. with his brother.Copy !req
428. - Which one do you want?
- Uh, watermelon.Copy !req
429. Oh, watermelon.Copy !req
430. Yeah, the nanny's
running a little late.Copy !req
431. But I can, um,
I'll come by right after.Copy !req
432. Oh, very good.Copy !req
433. - Hi! How are you?
- Hi. Good, I'm Destiny.Copy !req
434. Destiny, right.
Thanks for coming.Copy !req
435. - This is Angela.
- Hi!Copy !req
436. - Hi. Nice to meet you.
- That's Adam.Copy !req
437. - You, too. Thank you.
- Yeah, welcome.Copy !req
438. I have around
eight years' experience.Copy !req
439. Began originally with my church
as a church leader.Copy !req
440. So, Angela and I are kind
of in a non-traditional,Copy !req
441. non-romantic relationship.
We're hereCopy !req
442. to co-parent this child
as part of a rehearsal.Copy !req
443. - It's a simulated experience.
- Before we have— Yeah.Copy !req
444. Before deciding
if we wanna do itCopy !req
445. - in our real lives.
- Separately.Copy !req
446. - Okay.
- Yeah, separately.Copy !req
447. - We wouldn't together, yeah.Copy !req
448. - Oh, okay.
- Yeah, so the extensive cameraCopy !req
449. set up here is not
because we don't trust you.Copy !req
450. - Okay, so—
- Yeah, they're not nanny cams.Copy !req
451. - Oh, okay.
- Yeah, yeah.Copy !req
452. So, this is a camera in regards
to the production?Copy !req
453. - Yes. It's—
- Okay.Copy !req
454. Same with the timer, I see.Copy !req
455. Yeah, the clock
is a countdown clockCopy !req
456. 'cause this is an actor.Copy !req
457. - Okay.
- The child,
so he can only—Copy !req
458. They can only work
for a certain amount of hours.Copy !req
459. - Okay.
- So...Copy !req
460. - it's really—
- Oh, yeah, that makes sense.Copy !req
461. - Okay, bye, Adam.Copy !req
462. - Why?
- I'm going to work.Copy !req
463. Ah! Come on.Copy !req
464. But when I got
to the warehouse,Copy !req
465. Patrick wasn't there
and no one could track him down.Copy !req
466. So I just had to wait.Copy !req
467. - I don't want you.Copy !req
468. When I finally got him
on the phone,Copy !req
469. he told me he was
at an amusement parkCopy !req
470. with his girlfriend.Copy !req
471. I kinda had plans
with the girlfriend nowCopy !req
472. to go have like a...Copy !req
473. What's that— what's that cake—
What's that cake called? Uh...Copy !req
474. Funnel cake. Like, I've never
had funnel cake before.Copy !req
475. - Okay.
- So, yeah.Copy !req
476. I'd like to have some-
a little bit of funnel cake.Copy !req
477. - Treat myself for a second.
- Right.Copy !req
478. Yeah.Copy !req
479. He said
I could come join himCopy !req
480. for funnel cake if I wanted.Copy !req
481. But by the time I got there,
his cell phone had diedCopy !req
482. and I couldn't find him.Copy !req
483. I never heard
from Patrick again.Copy !req
484. Maybe for some,
the rehearsal itself is enough.Copy !req
485. Okay.Copy !req
486. What is it? Why do you keep
turning away from me?Copy !req
487. I was starting to wonder
how I could so easilyCopy !req
488. create feelings inside
other people's rehearsalsCopy !req
489. when I couldn't do it
for myself.Copy !req
490. - Where are you going?
- Hmm.Copy !req
491. Okay, I'll just leave it here
with youCopy !req
492. and then you can change it
when you're ready, okay?Copy !req
493. This is the day
Mommy bought you home.Copy !req
494. - You were just a baby.
- Yeah.Copy !req
495. I had a photo album
made that blended false memoriesCopy !req
496. with real ones
to help fill in the gapsCopy !req
497. and enhance the feeling
of a complete life.Copy !req
498. Thomas, the train!
I need to go there now!Copy !req
499. Time moved differently
in hereCopy !req
500. and I was still getting used
to it.Copy !req
501. It was behind it in here.Copy !req
502. Okay, yeah. It was.Copy !req
503. When your
three-year-old son goesCopy !req
504. into his room...Copy !req
505. - Adam?
- Yes, Dad?Copy !req
506. and emerges
as a six-year-oldCopy !req
507. a minute later,Copy !req
508. it can be hard to stay
in the moment.Copy !req
509. Um, so what
do you wanna do today?Copy !req
510. So, you need to have
custom digital mirrors installedCopy !req
511. that allow you to see yourself
age at the same paceCopy !req
512. as your child.Copy !req
513. But that means
the world around youCopy !req
514. has to move faster too.Copy !req
515. Seeds that are planted one weekCopy !req
516. have to be plump vegetables
the next.Copy !req
517. Nature's timeline
has to be accelerated...Copy !req
518. and your brain desperately tries
to adapt to your new reality.Copy !req
519. And then
every now and then,Copy !req
520. there are these glimmers...Copy !req
521. - That was kind of fun, huh?
- ... these momentsCopy !req
522. - ... where you forget,
and you just feel like a family.Copy !req
523. - You're gonna get me?Copy !req
524. Don't get me!
You threw it! What the heck!Copy !req
525. That's when you know
the rehearsal is working.Copy !req
526. - No! Help. I'm dead.Copy !req
527. I often feel envious
of others.Copy !req
528. The way they can immerse
themselves in a worldCopy !req
529. with so little effort.Copy !req
530. The way they can just believe.Copy !req
531. I Googled origins
of Halloween and it came upCopy !req
532. Celtic tradition.Copy !req
533. Oh, maybe— Did you do
a keyword search?Copy !req
534. "Halloween satanic origins"?Copy !req
535. To gather only
what they need to knowCopy !req
536. and ignore the rest.Copy !req
537. Yeah,
and Google's really censoringCopy !req
538. a lot of stuff now.Copy !req
539. That's weird.
Why would, um, Google be, like,Copy !req
540. incentivized to suppress resultsCopy !req
541. like that, like, what do
they have to gain?Copy !req
542. 'Cause they're controlled
by the Devil.Copy !req
543. - And the Devil is—
- Google is?Copy !req
544. Yeah, and the Devil's
biggest trickCopy !req
545. is to convince people
that he doesn't even exist.Copy !req
546. Yeah, maybe let's not talk
about this around the kids.Copy !req
547. Yeah, okay. Yeah.Copy !req
548. These are smart labels
and covers.Copy !req
549. I think we need to take
that part off.Copy !req
550. Emotions
are a funny thing.Copy !req
551. They're not easy to engineer.Copy !req
552. After all, there's only so much
you can do to deceive yourself.Copy !req
553. And even when you think
of everything...Copy !req
554. there will always be things
you forget.Copy !req
