1. But the other thing
about this jail was...
Copy !req
2. it could only afford
one wall of bars.
Copy !req
3. Guard!
Copy !req
4. Whenever a prisoner
wanted to escape,
Copy !req
5. the guards had to lug it over
to him so he could try.
Copy !req
6. Ugh. Ugh.
Copy !req
7. Auuuugghhh!
Copy !req
8. All right, pal.
You done here?
Copy !req
9. Yeah, I'm good.
Thanks, guys.
Copy !req
10. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
11. Damn it, we supposed
to be on break.
Copy !req
12. I mean, where's our rest?
Copy !req
13. It's as though, despite the fact
that we are the jailers,
Copy !req
14. in a sense,
we are in our own prison...
Copy !req
15. of the mind.
Copy !req
16. Oh, man.
What a thought!
Copy !req
17. That's when Prisoner 72301
Copy !req
18. figured out how to escape.
Copy !req
19. Guard, bars!
Copy !req
20. Do it now, or I say
something so profound,
Copy !req
21. it'll blow every mind
in this joint.
Copy !req
22. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy, easy.
Let's not get heavy here.
Copy !req
23. I-I'm —
I'm bringing it.
Copy !req
24. You — Your head here.
Copy !req
25. J-J-Just don't
say anything
Copy !req
26. to upend my world view,
all right?
Copy !req
27. I got kids.
I got kids.
Copy !req
28. You know what
I always wondered —
Copy !req
29. like, what's the deal
with society, bruh?
Copy !req
30. Oh, man,
that's a trip.
Copy !req
31. You're free!
No bars can hold you now, boys.
Copy !req
32. Yah, boys! Yah! Yah!
Whoo-hoo!
Copy !req
33. Where did he go?
W-Where'd he go?
Copy !req
34. Aah!
Copy !req
35. Aaaaaaaaaaaah!
Copy !req
36. Aaaaaaaaaaah!
Copy !req
37. Then again, some
people are born victims —
Copy !req
38. all of them.
Copy !req
39. And some days, your whole life
flashes before your eyes,
Copy !req
40. in real time,
starting with Day One.
Copy !req
41. One last push, ma'am.
It's a boy!
Copy !req
42. Oh! Oh, God.
Copy !req
43. What?
Oh, no!
Copy !req
44. What is it?
Copy !req
45. I'm sorry, ma'am —
he's a dirty pig.
Copy !req
46. But some accidents
are even worse...
Copy !req
47. when the victim
doesn't deserve it.
Copy !req
48. Sir?
Mr. Lem, can you hear me?
Copy !req
49. Oh. Where am I?
Copy !req
50. Who am I?
Copy !req
51. Your name is Neil Lem.
Copy !req
52. You've been in an accident.
You were driving,
Copy !req
53. and a woman was
on the sidewalk without a bra.
Copy !req
54. You took your eyes off the road
to ogle her breasts.
Copy !req
55. Oh.
You hopped the curb
and ran over a dog.
Copy !req
56. Oh!
And its owner.
Copy !req
57. Oh, God.
And his kids.
Copy !req
58. Ohh!
And their friends.
Copy !req
59. Oh.
And their
pet hamster.
Copy !req
60. But, miraculously,
we were able to save...
Copy !req
61. only the hamster.
Copy !req
62. I... was ogling?
Copy !req
63. The good thing is you managed
to swerve back onto the road.
Copy !req
64. Thank God.
Straight into
a school bus.
Copy !req
65. Ohh!
None of those
kids survived.
Copy !req
66. The parents
are devastated.
Copy !req
67. Understandably,
many have bought guns...
Copy !req
68. Ohh!
and are going on
shooting sprees all over town.
Copy !req
69. I-I don't know who I am,
but I'm — I'm —
Copy !req
70. I'm sure I did not mean
to ogle a girl.
Copy !req
71. Woman. Woman.
She wants to meet you.
Copy !req
72. Meet me? Why?
It's the least
you could do.
Copy !req
73. I mean, it seems like you
like her so much.
Copy !req
74. We thought,
maybe you two
Copy !req
75. meet under these tragic
circumstances,
Copy !req
76. it bonds you into
an unlikely romance
Copy !req
77. wherein you help
each other heal.
Copy !req
78. Could be an amazing
love story.
Copy !req
79. Oh. Um... I... Okay.
Copy !req
80. Do — Do I —
Do I look all right?
Copy !req
81. Sure. Lila!
Copy !req
82. Come on in, honey.
Copy !req
83. Wait. W-When did
the accident happen?
Copy !req
84. It was about
three hours ago.
Copy !req
85. Why?
She's just...
Copy !req
86. older than I —
I'm sorry.
Copy !req
87. Is she not your type?
No!
Copy !req
88. I didn't —
I didn't mean...
Copy !req
89. She's really vulnerable
right now.
Copy !req
90. She's gone.
I hope you're happy.
Copy !req
91. Sir?
Mr. Lem?
Copy !req
92. Can you hear me?
Copy !req
93. What... happened?
Copy !req
94. You said some offensive
things to a woman,
Copy !req
95. and the media got wind
of everything you've done.
Copy !req
96. Mm-hmm.
There's been riots
across the state.
Copy !req
97. The whole
country's in chaos.
Oh.
Copy !req
98. But before
it got out of control,
Copy !req
99. the police were deployed
to maintain the peace...
Copy !req
100. Thank Christ for —
which means thousands
Copy !req
101. of innocent citizens
have been shot quite dead.
Copy !req
102. That's awful.
The human animal
will take only so much
Copy !req
103. before they rise up to tear
down governments that oppress.
Copy !req
104. - Ohh.
- Sensing weakness,
Copy !req
105. the North Koreans
launched the first nuke.
Copy !req
106. - Ohh!
- But after we retaliated,
Copy !req
107. Iran, Russia, China,
Japan, India,
Copy !req
108. Brazil unleashed
all they had.
Copy !req
109. Most of Earth's
population is dead.
Copy !req
110. Of the survivors,
90% are mutant-ed.
Copy !req
111. The only thing
the globe agrees on
Copy !req
112. is that this is all your fault,
and you must pay.
Copy !req
113. Mr. Lem? Can you hear me?
Copy !req
114. Where am I?
What happened?
Copy !req
115. The mutants consider you
their God...
Ahh. What?
Copy !req
116. presuming this was
all your grand plan
Copy !req
117. to remake civilization with
their kind as our overlords.
Copy !req
118. Ohh. Ohh.
Copy !req
119. But we normals beseech you —
stand with us.
Copy !req
120. Ohh. Ohh.
Declare allegiance
to our resistance!
Copy !req
121. Aah.
Will you wave
our flag?
Copy !req
122. I-I swear I'll never
ogle anyone again.
Copy !req
123. Forget about that!
Copy !req
124. You're the only
fertile male left —
Copy !req
125. we need your help
to repopulate.
What?
Copy !req
126. Come.
Give me some semen.
Copy !req
127. Oh. Ohh.
Hurry. Come on.
Copy !req
128. Hit me, stat!
Uh, okay.
Copy !req
129. Do you have, like,
a-a dirty magazine?
Copy !req
130. Haven't you
ogled enough?
Copy !req
131. We've got medical
extraction procedures.
No, no, no, no, no!
Copy !req
132. Ohh!
Copy !req
133. Ohh. Hello?
Copy !req
134. Mr. Lem, you're up.
Copy !req
135. Great. All's back to normal.
You're free to go.
Copy !req
136. But the ogling?
Copy !req
137. Turns out that
was a hoax.
Copy !req
138. You're totally fine.
Exit's through there.
Copy !req
139. Ohh. Uh.
Copy !req
140. This is the worst hoax
I've ever been a part of!
Copy !req
141. And I was in the camps.
Copy !req
142. Oh!
Copy !req
143. Guard!
Copy !req
144. The only way to
escape the prison of reality
Copy !req
145. is to turn your life into a lie
so you are not you.
Copy !req
146. You're a different person
making all this up
Copy !req
147. in his journal
of fantastical fiction,
Copy !req
148. a lonely loser
as pathetic as a poet.
Copy !req
149. No, put that down!
Please, n-not poetry!
Copy !req
150. Aaah!
Copy !req
151. Where'd he go?
Where'd he go?
Copy !req
152. Life flashes forced
Officer Dale
Copy !req
153. to recall
his first disappointment...
Copy !req
154. how, since the age of 6,
Copy !req
155. he yearned for a puppy
but his parents were allergic...
Copy !req
156. to making him happy.
Copy !req
157. So, instead, they had
his grandma move in,
Copy !req
158. and Dale taught her some tricks.
Copy !req
159. He trained Nana to sit up
and beg for her meds.
Copy !req
160. She could shake...
Here, Nana, Nana!
Good Nana!
Copy !req
161. catch a Frisbee
in her teeth.
Copy !req
162. When she messed the rug,
he rubbed her nose in it
Copy !req
163. until the foul of her
unpleasantness was gone.
Copy !req
164. But when Dale took Nana
to the vet to get fixed,
Copy !req
165. they discovered she had mange,
Copy !req
166. and he had to put her out of his
misery and into his ecstasy.
Copy !req
167. Weeks later, when his chum
got a 3-legged dog,
Copy !req
168. Dale was jealous because he
could only afford a pet leg.
Copy !req
169. It spent all day humping itself,
happy as a lark's arm,
Copy !req
170. and even gave birth
to a litter of toe-lets...
Copy !req
171. until the day it got hit
by a wheel.
Copy !req
172. Doctors had to amputate
his whole body
Copy !req
173. and replace him
with a wooden one.
Copy !req
174. Other dogs mistook Sock
for a stick,
Copy !req
175. so he contracted rabies
and went on a rampage.
Copy !req
176. Witnessing such carnage
gave Dale a deep desire
Copy !req
177. to create his own fate.
Copy !req
178. But tragically, the urge
to conjure a better new world
Copy !req
179. can turn even a decent
human being into a poet.
Copy !req
180. The sun-dappled lark
crouched on a branch,
Copy !req
181. admiring the brilliance
of the poet...
Copy !req
182. No. That's ridiculous.
Copy !req
183. The chipmunk crouched
on a branch in awe of the poet.
Copy !req
184. No, no, no.
Copy !req
185. Hm. Hm.
Copy !req
186. I know!
There he is!
Copy !req
187. Sir, we need you to come
with us immediately.
Copy !req
188. Excuse me? I-I don't...
No, we need your poetry.
Copy !req
189. It's the only thing
that can save the world.
Copy !req
190. Your poetry
really matters.
Copy !req
191. It does?
Totally.
Copy !req
192. The world needs
your poetry right away!
Copy !req
193. For real?
Yes, and
the amazing thing —
Copy !req
194. we're not making fun
of you at all.
Copy !req
195. The government personally
requested that you,
Copy !req
196. the best poet on earth,
come read his super not boring,
Copy !req
197. not lame, not solipsistic,
indulgent,
Copy !req
198. narcissistic, vapid,
deluded twaddle.
Copy !req
199. Come on! Let's move!
Copy !req
200. Oh, my God,
this is amazing.
Copy !req
201. I know! It's incredible.
You're such a good poet.
Copy !req
202. I always secretly hoped
this would happen.
Copy !req
203. Oh, it's happening.
Let's go!
Copy !req
204. This is so inspiring.
Copy !req
205. Hang on.
I've got to write about this.
Copy !req
206. But we need you!
Hold on.
Copy !req
207. Words are coming —
slowly, but, oh, they're coming.
Copy !req
208. Sir, we don't have time!
Copy !req
209. You know, you're kind of
in my space right now,
Copy !req
210. lagging my flow?
Copy !req
211. Not sure if you've heard,
Copy !req
212. but I've recently been
acknowledged by the military
Copy !req
213. as a pretty important poet,
Copy !req
214. so I can probably
get you fired.
Copy !req
215. No. Please don't, sir.
I need this job.
Copy !req
216. I have 52 children.
Well, now you know
Copy !req
217. there are some things
more important than sex
Copy !req
218. with a whole bunch
of stupid, beautiful women.
Copy !req
219. You really taught me
something today.
Copy !req
220. How did you get so wise?
Copy !req
221. I've had a lot
of lonely time
Copy !req
222. to think up a lot of very wise,
um, thoughts...
Copy !req
223. Oh, that's so cool.
thoughts... thoughts...
Copy !req
224. Anyway, we better go.
Copy !req
225. World needs you and all.
Yeah, right.
Copy !req
226. My poem isn't finished.
But, sir, the world!
Copy !req
227. I need you to respect
my beautiful process.
Copy !req
228. Aaaaah!
Copy !req
229. And that was the day
that man never remembered
Copy !req
230. to stop ogling the Earth.
Copy !req
