161. Uh, Michael, you're doing it again.Copy !req
162. Take a step closer

176. Really?Copy !req
177. You're special.Copy !req
178. You have something to say.Copy !req
179. That's rare, Michael.Copy !req
180. Yeah, this is
the fader. Come on, try it.Copy !req
181. Here, this fader
goes up and downCopy !req
182. - and it sets the levels
- Wow.Copy !req
183. to the volume.Copy !req
184. It can make your voice
sound... louder...Copy !req
185. or softer.Copy !req
186. - All right?
- Yeah.Copy !req
187. And these knobs up here,
that's for your EQ.Copy !req
188. What's EQ?Copy !req

190. You see, when we record,Copy !req
191. we split things up
in tracks, right?Copy !req
192. Excuse me, uh,
time to go, Michael.Copy !req
193. Mr. Gordy's a very busy man.Copy !req
194. I'm sure you've taken up
enough of his time.Copy !req
195. Go ahead on, Michael.
I can show you this stuffCopy !req
196. some other time, right?Copy !req
197. - Okay, Mr. Gordy. Thank you.
- All right. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
198. Hey, Michael.Copy !req
199. You can ask me anything...Copy !req
200. anytime you want.Copy !req
201. All right, so, how old are you?Copy !req
202. Ten.Copy !req
203. No, you're not ten.
You're eight.Copy !req
204. In this business, you can
make up just about anything,Copy !req
205. especially your age.Copy !req
206. Michael.Copy !req
207. Michael. How old are you?Copy !req
208. I'm, uh, I'm eight, sir.Copy !req
209. And I've been reading
about the Serengeti.Copy !req
210. Learning about all different
types of lions, tigers,Copy !req
211. monkeys, giraffes.Copy !req
212. One day, you and I will have
more friends to play with.Copy !req
213. Wouldn't that be fun?Copy !req
214. Look at this picture.
You like it?Copy !req
215. Come on, Michael,
Joseph wants you.Copy !req
216. And make sure you put your rat
in the cage this time.Copy !req
217. It's disgusting.Copy !req
218. Come on now.Copy !req
219. Meet Bill Bray.Copy !req
220. He's your new
head of security, all right?Copy !req
221. Now, he's gonna
be around a lot.Copy !req
222. Make sure you mind him.Copy !req
223. Nice to meet you, Mr. Bray.Copy !req
224. It's very nice to meet you,
too, young man.Copy !req
225. You can call me Bill, okay?Copy !req
226. Okay, Bill.Copy !req
227. All right.Copy !req
228. Guard him with your life.Copy !req
229. Michael.Copy !req
230. You're missing the best part.Copy !req
231. And llamas have three stomachs,Copy !req
232. so they can digest their foodCopy !req
233. because all they eat
is vegetables.Copy !req
234. And they're really smart,
very intelligent creatures.Copy !req
235. And best of all, they never ever bite.Copy !req
236. That's what you said
about the rats.Copy !req
237. No, really. Llamas never bite.Copy !req
238. They only spit
when they're agitated.Copy !req
239. So, you want me to bring
some spitting,Copy !req
240. agitated animal into my house?Copy !req
241. He'll live outside.
Come on, please.Copy !req
242. - Please say yes.
- No.Copy !req
243. - I'll look after him.
- Absolutely not, Michael.Copy !req
244. Mother has enough things
to worry about.Copy !req
245. And you don't need another pet.Copy !req
246. They're not my pets.Copy !req
247. They're my friends.Copy !req
248. Well...Copy !req
249. I do understand that.Copy !req
250. But don't you want
to meet real friends,Copy !req
251. like, kids your own age?Copy !req
252. I would like that for you.Copy !req
253. I do sometimes,
but I'm not like the other kids.Copy !req
254. They don't treat me
like a real person.Copy !req
255. And all they want
to do is stareCopy !req
256. and take pictures of me.Copy !req
257. You look at me, Michael.Copy !req
258. I knew you were different
the moment you were born.Copy !req
259. I knew you were different
from your brothers,Copy !req
260. and that's okay.Copy !req
261. You have a very special light.Copy !req
262. And you know what Jehovah says.Copy !req
263. He says, "Let your light shine
unto the world."Copy !req
264. Now, you let your light shine.Copy !req
265. Do you understand me?Copy !req
266. Yeah.Copy !req
267. Don't you ever let anyone
take that away from you.Copy !req
268. Not even yourself.Copy !req
269. Come here.Copy !req
270. The next song we're gonna doCopy !req
271. is one of our favorites.
You guys ready?Copy !req
272. Michael!Copy !req
273. Shedding the past,
embracing freedom...Copy !req
274. That's your album
right there, brother.Copy !req
275. That's what people want.Copy !req
276. Pure escapism, Quincy.Copy !req
277. - That's it.
- Yeah.Copy !req
278. So...Copy !req
279. how are you gonna tell your
father about a solo album?Copy !req
280. Breaking away
from the family...Copy !req
281. he's not gonna like that.Copy !req
282. I'm not a kid anymore, Q.Copy !req
283. I'm gonna look him
straight in the eye.Copy !req
284. Tell him to his face.Copy !req
285. I need you to tell my father
that the solo albumCopy !req
286. was your idea.Copy !req
287. Okay.Copy !req
288. Okay.Copy !req
289. I'm gonna have a drink.Copy !req
290. Michael, we love you
doing a solo album.Copy !req
291. Honestly, that's why
we signed you all to Epic.Copy !req
292. No disrespect to your family,
but...Copy !req
293. this is what
we were hoping for.Copy !req
294. Great. I just...Copy !req
295. I think it'll be better
coming from you guys.Copy !req
296. Anything we can do
to help, Michael.Copy !req
297. So, tell us about the album.Copy !req
298. Okay. Well, this album,
it's really important to me.Copy !req
299. I just... I need the freedom
to write the music and lyricsCopy !req
300. that pop into my head.Copy !req
301. You know,
to express myself creatively.Copy !req
302. I want a whole new sound,
a whole new me.Copy !req
303. Quincy Jones producing.Copy !req
304. Rod Temperton,
he's working on songs right now.Copy !req
305. It sounds terrific, Michael.Copy !req
306. Consider it done.Copy !req
307. So, we feel like
Michael doing a solo albumCopy !req
308. would be really great
for the label and,Copy !req
309. more importantly,
for the Jackson brand.Copy !req
310. They could help each other
with PR and merchandisingCopy !req
311. and feed each other, you know?Copy !req
312. "Feed." Sure.Copy !req
313. So, I guess
you're okay with all this.Copy !req
314. Of course, gentlemen.Copy !req
315. Whatever's good for Michael
is great for me.Copy !req
316. And if there's anything
you need, don't hesitate to...Copy !req
317. Only thing is...Copy !req
318. Michael can do whatever
he wants in his spare time,Copy !req
319. so long as he continues
to work with his brothers.Copy !req
320. His... I'm sorry?Copy !req
321. I own his ass
from 9:00 to 5:00.Copy !req
322. After that, it's up to him.Copy !req
323. If he wants to cut an album
at midnight, so fine with me.Copy !req
324. As long as he's at that
microphone at 9:00 a.m. sharp.Copy !req
325. That's what works around here.
My house.Copy !req
326. Understood.Copy !req
327. I appreciate you gentlemen
stopping by.Copy !req
328. Shows respect.Copy !req
329. - Our pleasure, Joe.
- Yeah.Copy !req
330. I'm so excited
to start recording with Q tonight.Copy !req
331. I wish you could come.Copy !req
332. I'm a little nervous,
but more excited.Copy !req
333. Definitely more excited.Copy !req
334. I just have all
these ideas in my headCopy !req
335. just constantly flowing.Copy !req
336. I just got to get them out.Copy !req
337. You know?Copy !req
338. You get some sleep, Louie.Copy !req
339. I'll be back in the morning.
I'll tell you all about it.Copy !req
340. Are you ready, Joker? Yeah.Copy !req
341. Let's hit it.Copy !req
342. - You want me to drive?
- Not this time, Joker.Copy !req
343. - You sure about that?
- Next time.Copy !req
344. I'd rather let Louie drive.Copy !req
345. Well, take your time.Copy !req
346. Settle in.Copy !req
347. No rush.Copy !req
348. And, uh...Copy !req
349. keep these feet still.Copy !req
350. Oh, Q. Can you do me a favorCopy !req
351. and lower the lights
for me, please?Copy !req
352. Just a little bit.Copy !req
353. Thanks.Copy !req
354. You are confident.Copy !req
355. You're strong.Copy !req
356. You are beautiful.Copy !req
357. You are the greatest
of all time.Copy !req
358. Michael, you ready?Copy !req
359. Mmm. Thank you.Copy !req
360. Oh!Copy !req
361. - What does he have going on?
- What is it this time?Copy !req
362. It's a surprise.Copy !req
363. Well, is it a car? Did you get
a damn Ferrari, Mike?Copy !req
364. - Mike, I'm going back to bed.
- Marlon, Tito,Copy !req
365. - Do you know about this?
- What's going on?Copy !req
366. What you got going on, Mike?Copy !req
367. You'll see.Copy !req
368. Oh, wow.Copy !req
369. Go on.Copy !req
370. It's okay.Copy !req
371. Go on.Copy !req
372. No, it's okay.Copy !req
373. I want you to meet
my new friend, Bubbles.Copy !req
374. Oh.Copy !req
375. I rescued him
from this awful place.Copy !req
376. You know, where they do
testing on animals.Copy !req
377. Welcome to the family.Copy !req
378. Michael, you do know
that chimps are wild animalsCopy !req
379. that don't belong
in a house in Encino.Copy !req
380. Mother, I'll take
good care of him.Copy !req
381. I will, I promise.Copy !req
382. Does he bite?Copy !req
383. Oh, no. No, he's sweet.Copy !req
384. But, you know, chimps...Copy !req
385. are sensitive,
though, you know,Copy !req
386. to certain sounds
and-and people.Copy !req
387. You know, they either hide
or they attack.Copy !req
388. It's okay, Bubbles. It's okay.Copy !req
389. You're safe now.Copy !req
390. You want to make
some music, huh?Copy !req
391. That's me.Copy !req
392. I just released my new album.Copy !req
393. Those are my demos.Copy !req

411. What about medications?
Are you taking any?Copy !req
412. No, ma'am.Copy !req
413. Just Benoquin cream

414. Oh, I'm sorry.Copy !req
415. You know, it's much more
common than people think.Copy !req
416. Has it spread?Copy !req
417. - A little bit.

459. Not a boy
in a kid band anymore.Copy !req
460. Yeah.Copy !req
461. Look around, Michael,
your fans love you.Copy !req
462. They're not my fans.Copy !req
463. They're part of my family.Copy !req
464. It's just time for me to startCopy !req
465. taking control
of my own destiny.Copy !req
466. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
467. You know?Copy !req
468. I want to be who I want to be.Copy !req
469. Mikey.Copy !req
470. Joseph just called a meeting.Copy !req
471. Careful, he's hungry.Copy !req

482. It's heartwarming.Copy !req
483. I mean, he can go all the way,
right to the top.Copy !req
484. All by himself.Copy !req
485. Wouldn't that be something?
Oh, man.Copy !req
486. Let me tell you,
the Jackson familyCopy !req
487. is the brand.Copy !req
488. That's our Coca-Cola.Copy !req
489. Yeah. So we need
to open up the storeCopy !req
490. and start selling.Copy !req
491. Or you know
what's gonna happen?Copy !req
492. Folks are gonna go out there
and start buying some Pepsi.Copy !req
493. We got to get in there again
and vend the wares.Copy !req
494. So, I've decided...Copy !req
495. I'm arranging a tour
and a live album.Copy !req
496. Wait, how are we gonna tour
without Jermaine?Copy !req
497. Your brother made his choiceCopy !req
498. when we left Motown,
and he stayed.Copy !req
499. Let him live with it.Copy !req
500. The point is, we need to
capitalize on Michael's album.Copy !req
501. So, we gonna do
a bunch of songs...Copy !req
502. Joseph, I...Copy !req
503. I... I need to think.Copy !req
504. No, sir.Copy !req
505. I told you what to think.Copy !req
506. You got a problem
with that, Michael?Copy !req
507. We need to have
a reasonable conversationCopy !req
508. about this, Joseph.Copy !req
509. You think now
because you're a bigCopy !req
510. superstar and you have
this big hit albumCopy !req
511. that you're better
than everybody in this house?Copy !req
512. Is that it?Copy !req
513. You better than your brothers?Copy !req
514. Your mother and me?Copy !req
515. Is that it?Copy !req
516. You need to think.Copy !req
517. You think you're better
than me, boy?Copy !req
518. Joseph, that is enough.Copy !req
519. Is that it, Michael? Huh?Copy !req
520. - Is that it?
- That is enough!Copy !req
521. Let's go.Copy !req
522. Where do you want to go?Copy !req
523. I'm so sick of it,
Bill. All of it.Copy !req
524. Joseph's exploiting me.Copy !req
525. I had a whole plan.Copy !req
526. Track list, the visuals.Copy !req
527. I wanted to do a solo tour.Copy !req
528. He's just...
he's just ruining it all.Copy !req
529. He's just...Copy !req
530. I need my freedom.Copy !req
531. Well...Copy !req
532. You can move out.Copy !req
533. I'm not ready for that.Copy !req

535. Life's not easy, son.
I'll tell you.Copy !req
536. I love my family.Copy !req
537. I do.Copy !req
538. I just want to do my own thing.Copy !req
539. Joseph's never gonna change.Copy !req
540. Only thing he cares about
is the Jackson family.Copy !req
541. Huh?Copy !req
542. And no matter what you do,Copy !req
543. he's only ever gonna see it
as a family success.Copy !req

you're probably gonnaCopy !req
557. break a few hearts
over there in Encino.Copy !req
558. Unless I'm missing something.Copy !req
559. - Do I know you?
- No, I don't think so.Copy !req

737. It's got to beCopy !req
738. the greatest-selling album
of all time.Copy !req
739. And not just by a Black artistCopy !req
740. but by any race,
any color, okay?Copy !req
741. Then I want the-the largest
concert tour there ever was.Copy !req
742. Just stadiums only.Copy !req
743. Just thousands
and thousands of peopleCopy !req
744. just rushing into the stadiums
and just all over the world.Copy !req
745. I also want to make short films
featuring my music.Copy !req
746. That's ambitious.Copy !req
747. I can see it.Copy !req
748. You see it. You can do it.Copy !req
749. And I-I see it so clearly.Copy !req

759. I mean, if Halley's Comet
came every year,Copy !req
760. just year after year,
would you look at it?Copy !req
761. You're gonna need publicity.Copy !req
762. What I'm gonna need is
a good record that sells.Copy !req
763. - Nothing else matters.
- Fair enough.Copy !req
764. Then I suggest you start
laying down some killer demos.Copy !req
765. Can you do that?Copy !req
766. Of course, I can do that.Copy !req
767. What are you doing, Mike?Copy !req
768. I'm channeling.Copy !req
769. I'm letting the Creator
give me a song right now.Copy !req
770. But if I'm not here
to receive these ideas,Copy !req
771. God might give them to Prince.Copy !req
772. You're ticking me off, man.Copy !req
773. Tito.Copy !req
774. Yeah.Copy !req
775. Almost all
of the gunfire and deathCopy !req
776. over drugs and territory
involves rival gangs.Copy !req
777. Ryan Chavez reports
from Los Angeles.Copy !req
778. A best friend killedCopy !req
779. by a rival gang member.Copy !req
780. Another killed at a drive-by
shooting in Sacramento,Copy !req
781. because he wore
the wrong color.Copy !req
782. Those who wear blue
call themselves the Crips,Copy !req
783. the Bloods wear red.Copy !req
784. Some, like Smokey,
survive attacks,Copy !req
785. though paralyzed.Copy !req
786. People dyin' over nothing, man.Copy !req
787. Over a neighborhood.Copy !req
788. Yet, the city remains filledCopy !req
789. with warring soldiers.Copy !req
790. It's easy to Crip to me.Copy !req
791. Something y'all don't do,
y'all don't watch out...Copy !req
792. You wouldn't die for him,
would you?Copy !req
793. You're saying that now on TV,Copy !req
794. but you wouldn't die
for him for real.Copy !req
795. Yeah, I'd die for my homeboy.Copy !req
796. But as-as time went on,Copy !req
797. I started to get too deep
in the drugs,Copy !req
798. so I started getting
in trouble on the streets.Copy !req
799. So, I thought to myself,Copy !req
800. "You know,
it was either this or death."Copy !req
801. Ryan Chavez
reporting from Los Angeles.Copy !req
802. Hmm.Copy !req
803. Hello?Copy !req
804. Hey, Bill, it's me.Copy !req
805. Hey, Joker. What's up?Copy !req
806. Well, I need some helpCopy !req
807. and was hoping
you could pull some favors.Copy !req
808. Okay,
they're all at the studio.Copy !req
809. But they're only there
because of you.Copy !req
810. I can't believe
you're doing this.Copy !req
811. Music will bring
people together, Bill.Copy !req
812. That's the point.Copy !req
813. And if things work out,
I have a big idea.Copy !req
814. What the hell is that?Copy !req
815. Okay, Pete.Copy !req
816. Hold up. That's Michael.
Michael Jackson.Copy !req
817. - Oh, shit.

818. - He actually came.
- That was juicy right there.Copy !req
819. What was that?Copy !req
820. This dance is called
Popping, man.Copy !req
821. Whoo!Copy !req
822. Hey, and this...Copy !req
823. - That's called the C-Walk, cuz.
- Yeah, hey.Copy !req
824. Hey, can I get an autograph?Copy !req
825. - Whatever, cuz. Look, it's for my sister.
- Man!Copy !req
826. - Come on.
- No, yeah, of course.Copy !req
827. Afterwards,
I'll sign autographs for everybody.Copy !req
828. For sure.Copy !req
829. Look, I know this isn't easy
for you guys.Copy !req
830. So I just want to thank
everybody for coming.Copy !req
831. It's really important to me.Copy !req
832. You see,
I think music and danceCopy !req
833. is what we all have in common.Copy !req
834. That's a universal language.Copy !req
835. And we can change the world.Copy !req
836. - I believe that.
- Word.Copy !req
837. Sounds good.Copy !req
838. Let's work on that together.Copy !req
839. Bam. Bam. Bam. Yep.Copy !req
840. Bam. Bam. Bam.Copy !req
841. Keep going.Copy !req
842. Yeah, let's...
let's work on that part.Copy !req
843. Right now, let's just forget
about the arms.Copy !req
844. It... shouldn't be too forced.Copy !req
845. It's natural. It's a flow.Copy !req
846. All together.Copy !req
847. Ooh.Copy !req
848. See?Copy !req
849. - It's in unison, you know.
- Yes.Copy !req
850. Think of, uh...Copy !req
851. a school of fish.Copy !req
852. You all move together.Copy !req
853. - You know what I mean?
- Yeah. Sure.Copy !req
854. I'm gonna try something.Copy !req
855. Just got an idea.Copy !req
856. Bill, can you bring
my jacket, please?Copy !req
857. I want to try something
while we...Copy !req
858. travel down this ways.Copy !req
859. The jacket...Copy !req
860. - Thank you.
- Yeah.Copy !req
861. Let's do it again.Copy !req
862. I'm gonna break out
and do somethingCopy !req
863. but continue with that...
with that flow.Copy !req
864. Ooh.Copy !req
865. Yeah, I like it.Copy !req
866. - All day.
- Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
867. What do you guys think?Copy !req
868. - That was tight, bro.
- Yeah, that's it.Copy !req
869. Feels good?Copy !req
870. All right.Copy !req
871. I want to try it
with music now.Copy !req

879. Louder!Copy !req
880. Go straight into funkyCopy !req
881. and then let that ooze into the
rest of the chorus. You dig?Copy !req
882. You're on the cover
of the damn album.Copy !req
883. You're singing on every song.Copy !req

897. Is there a particular thing
you're looking for? Or...Copy !req
898. Yeah, I'm just worried
we're not getting the feet.Copy !req
899. You know,
Fred Astaire would always say,Copy !req
900. "You've got to get
the whole body."Copy !req
901. You know, that's how
the audience feels the dance.Copy !req
902. - Right, right.

just to try that?Copy !req
904. - Just for one take?
- Yeah, you got it. Yeah.Copy !req
905. - Thank you.
- Yeah.Copy !req
906. So, instead of moving in,Copy !req
907. he wants the camera
to move out to see the feet.Copy !req
908. All right, we'll-we'll do that.Copy !req
909. Okay.Copy !req
910. Okay, Michael,

933. Your wish is my command.Copy !req
934. Well, I'm really happy
with the sales of Thriller.Copy !req
935. But...Copy !req
936. Branca.Copy !req
937. We're happy with the sales,Copy !req
938. uh, but there's still something
we need to do, promotion-wise.Copy !req
939. Hmm.Copy !req
940. We need to get
his videos on MTV.Copy !req
941. MTV? Ay-ay-ay. Not possible.Copy !req
942. The videos are masterpieces.Copy !req
943. You haven't even seen
"Thriller" yet,Copy !req
944. it's gonna blow your mind.Copy !req
945. And they will promote
the record like nothing else.Copy !req
946. And if we get into
heavy rotation on MTV,Copy !req
947. the sky's the limit,
and you know that.Copy !req
948. MTV almost never plays
Black artists.Copy !req
949. I don't know why.Copy !req
950. Maybe they don't want to scare
the shit out of the white kidsCopy !req
951. in the suburbs.Copy !req
952. Walter, I made this record
for everybody.Copy !req
953. White and Black.Copy !req
954. We feel like Michael's videos
deserve to be seen.Copy !req
955. Michael, let me
tell you something...Copy !req
956. I'm a proud Black artist,
Walter.Copy !req
957. I will not be shoved
to the back of any busCopy !req
958. by MTV or anyone.Copy !req
959. Believe me, John, I have tried.Copy !req
960. With love, Walter...Copy !req
961. please try harder.Copy !req
962. Sally, honey,
can you get me Bob PittmanCopy !req
963. over at MTV right now?Copy !req
964. And tell that schmuck
to drop everythingCopy !req
965. and take my call
right the hell now.Copy !req
966. - Of course.

967. So, Michael,
are you enjoying New York?Copy !req
968. - Yeah.
- Listen, I can get you ticketsCopy !req
969. to Marcel Marceau on Broadway,
front row.Copy !req
970. You know what,
better still, second row.Copy !req
971. You don't want to be
in the front row for them.Copy !req
972. Those French artists,
they're not so bigCopy !req
973. on showering,
you know what I mean?Copy !req
974. It's like Pepé Le Pew,
but without so much talking.Copy !req
975. You know, I have a burp comingCopy !req
976. 'cause I just had Coca-Cola
like an asshole.Copy !req
977. Sally!Copy !req
978. Bob.Copy !req
979. Thank you for taking my call.Copy !req
980. Listen...Copy !req
981. I need you
to run "Billie Jean" for me.Copy !req
982. I know. Uh, I know.Copy !req
983. But here's the problem
with that.Copy !req
984. I don't give a shit.
I don't give two shits.Copy !req
985. I don't even give three shits.Copy !req
986. So, you run "Billie Jean"
for me,Copy !req
987. and you run it all the time.Copy !req
988. Okay, Bob,
let me put it another way.Copy !req
989. If you don't play "Billie Jean"
in the next ten minutes,Copy !req
990. I'm gonna pull every CBS artist
from your lineup, okay?Copy !req
991. Bruce Springsteen, Cheap Trick,Copy !req
992. Charlie Daniels, Billy Joel,Copy !req
993. Cyndi Lauper, Bob Dylan.Copy !req
994. You can put them all
in a plastic bag,Copy !req
995. cover the plastic bag
in Crisco,Copy !req
996. and then shove them
up your ass.Copy !req
997. Yeah, your butthole.Copy !req
998. We are no longer in business.Copy !req
999. Michael Jackson's ThrillerCopy !req
1000. has sold 25 million records
and counting.Copy !req
1001. Michael Jackson is redefiningCopy !req
1002. what it means
to be a superstar.Copy !req
1003. He's single-handedlyCopy !req
1004. revitalized the music business.Copy !req
1005. With each spin
of "Billie Jean" on the radio,Copy !req
1006. we are witnessing
the rise of an artist...Copy !req
1007. Add up the numbers... he is oneCopy !req
1008. of the most popular
entertainers of all time,Copy !req
1009. and these days,
that means that he's alsoCopy !req
1010. a one-man financial empire.Copy !req

That was brilliant, Michael.Copy !req
1016. Oh, you shook the world
with that performance.Copy !req
1017. Oh, my goodness.Copy !req
1018. I was supposed to stay
on my toes longer.Copy !req
1019. Michael, I'm so proud of you.Copy !req

1026. - Hey, we'll catch you later, Mike.
- Yeah.Copy !req
1027. - Yeah, bye, Mike.
- It's okay, Mother.Copy !req
1028. Just couldn't give him
one night, huh?Copy !req
1029. What?Copy !req
1030. So, now
let me get this straight, Don.Copy !req
1031. Ten, 11 or 12?Copy !req
1032. How many wins do you have?
You, uh...Copy !req
1033. That's 13 of the current world
champions that I've promoted.Copy !req
1034. We got 110 fighters

1038. I'm gonna take those young
stars all the way to the top.Copy !req
1039. - Yeah, you are.
- Yeah.Copy !req
1040. - Life is good, my friend.
- Yes, it is.Copy !req
1041. Yes, it is.Copy !req
1042. Those Cubans,
straight from Castro himself.Copy !req
1043. - All right.
- Yes.Copy !req
1044. - Yes, yes, yes, yes.
- Oh, yes.Copy !req
1045. Now...Copy !req
1046. what did you want
to talk to me about?Copy !req
1047. Have you thought about getting
into the music business?Copy !req
1048. - Crossover-type thing?
- I don't follow you.Copy !req
1049. Well, I'm about to takeCopy !req
1050. - my boys on a world tour.
- Hmm.Copy !req
1051. You know, we're gonna start
with North America.Copy !req
1052. - You know, stadiums only.
- Hmm.Copy !req
1053. You know, the biggest.Copy !req
1054. It's time to show the world
that the Jacksons are back.Copy !req
1055. - Right on. Okay.
- And bigger than ever.Copy !req
1056. You've seen them sales
on Thriller.Copy !req
1057. - Huh?
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1058. People are gonna be
climbing the walls.Copy !req
1059. Is Michael gonna be there?Copy !req
1060. Of course Michael's
gonna be there.Copy !req
1061. Hmm. That's good to hear.Copy !req
1062. Now, what's in it for me?Copy !req
1063. I've been watching you, Don.Copy !req
1064. - I watch you like a hawk.
- Hmm.Copy !req
1065. I love the way
you promote your fighters.Copy !req
1066. - Uh-huh.
- You're the king of marketing.Copy !req
1067. You know, I just, uh,
I think that you and I,Copy !req
1068. if we came together,
we could, uh...Copy !req
1069. we could form
a good partnership.Copy !req
1070. Me and you?Copy !req
1071. I'll cut you a good deal.Copy !req
1072. I like deals.Copy !req
1073. I need...Copy !req
1074. this for my boys.Copy !req
1075. I need it.Copy !req
1076. You know, I-I think
they deserve the-the...Copy !req
1077. Rolls-Royce of sponsorships.Copy !req
1078. I mean, merchandising,
marketing, you hear me?Copy !req
1079. I mean, it's got to be huge.Copy !req
1080. And only you and I could do it.Copy !req
1081. It'll be called...Copy !req
1082. - the Victory tour.
- Hmm.Copy !req
1083. I may have something for you.Copy !req
1084. Pepsi.Copy !req
1085. They want to get
back in the game.Copy !req
1086. Michael could be
the face of the brand,Copy !req
1087. do some commercials.Copy !req
1088. All right.Copy !req
1089. - I can see it.
- Yeah.Copy !req
1090. But you wouldn't be
bullshitting me,Copy !req
1091. would you, Joe?Copy !req
1092. 'Cause if you
can't get Michael...Copy !req
1093. Now, that... now, that's
my favorite part.Copy !req
1094. I'm gonna
leave it to you, Michael.Copy !req
1095. You can't go yet.Copy !req
1096. No,
I'm going to bed. I'm tired.Copy !req
1097. You got to stay for the ending.
That's the best part.Copy !req
1098. Your mother is tired, baby.Copy !req
1099. Do me a favor. Make sure
you turn the lights off?Copy !req
1100. - Night, Mother.
- Good night.Copy !req
1101. Why are you here?Copy !req
1102. What? Can't a father
visit his son?Copy !req
1103. Biggest-selling record
of all time,Copy !req
1104. from a poor kid from Gary.Copy !req
1105. Who would have thought?Copy !req
1106. Me. I thought.Copy !req
1107. Come here.Copy !req
1108. Joseph, I know
you want something.Copy !req
1109. Michael...Copy !req
1110. I'm gonna need you
to tour with your brothers.Copy !req
1111. Now, I let you do
that album by yourself.Copy !req
1112. I'm gonna need you
to do this for me.Copy !req
1113. For your family.Copy !req
1114. I'm not a child anymore,
Joseph.Copy !req
1115. - And you're not my manager.
- Here we go.Copy !req
1116. I have to start
living my own life.Copy !req
1117. On my own.Copy !req
1118. Just like everyone else.Copy !req
1119. You ain't like everyone else.Copy !req
1120. So, you're trying to tell meCopy !req
1121. you want to be treated
like an adult?Copy !req
1122. All right.Copy !req
1123. You want to
see what the world is like...Copy !req
1124. without a family
that protects you.Copy !req
1125. Without a family that...Copy !req
1126. understands you.Copy !req
1127. Nobody else will understand you
outside this place.Copy !req
1128. There you'll be with
all the money in the world,Copy !req
1129. surrounded by people
who'll say "yes"Copy !req
1130. to everything.Copy !req
1131. Is that what you want?Copy !req
1132. What kind of sense that make?Copy !req
1133. I'm gonna...Copy !req
1134. call Don KingCopy !req
1135. and tell him
you're doing the tour.Copy !req
1136. I know you don't want
to let your family down.Copy !req
1137. We're cutting, guys.Copy !req
1138. All right, here's what I need.
I'm thinking...Copy !req
1139. I'm gonna move the camera in
while you're up here.Copy !req
1140. I need to get a close-up
of you at the top,Copy !req
1141. so just feel the camera
as you come down.Copy !req
1142. - Okay.
- Okay, great. All right.Copy !req

1153. And playback.Copy !req
1154. Cut it.Copy !req
1155. Put it out!Copy !req
1156. Michael!Copy !req
1157. What happened?Copy !req
1158. - Back up, back up, back up.
- Bill, get him out of here.Copy !req
1159. I'm here, I'm here,
I'm here, Michael.Copy !req
1160. - Get him up, get him up.
- I'm here, Joker. I'm here.Copy !req
1161. Hey, you're gonna be okay, okay?
You're gonna be okay.Copy !req
1162. Come on, Mike. Clear a path!Copy !req
1163. Out of my way!
Michael, I'm coming!Copy !req
1164. Get back! Get out of my way!Copy !req
1165. Clear a path!
Get back! Get back!Copy !req
1166. Clear a path!
Move! Move, please!Copy !req
1167. Excuse me!Copy !req
1168. Hey, Kate, come on.Copy !req
1169. Hey, I need to talk to you.Copy !req
1170. - Sir.
- I'm his father, Joseph Jackson.Copy !req
1171. This is his mother, Katherine.Copy !req
1172. - Hi. It's good to meet you.
- Very nice to meet you.Copy !req
1173. Thank you.Copy !req
1174. Well, your son is
in stable condition.Copy !req
1175. - All right.
- All right?Copy !req
1176. And, uh, we're trying to bring
his heart rate down,Copy !req
1177. but he's in a lot of pain.Copy !req
1178. Okay. When will he recover?Copy !req
1179. It's too soon to tell.Copy !req
1180. It's gonna be
a long road, all right?Copy !req
1181. He has third-degree burns
and substantial nerve damage.Copy !req
1182. Okay.Copy !req
1183. Do you think he'll ever be
able to perform again?Copy !req
1184. Ever?Copy !req
1185. Joseph.Copy !req
1186. Mr. Jackson,
your son almost died.Copy !req
1187. I know that.Copy !req
1188. Well, if that fire
had caught his clothes,Copy !req
1189. or burned over to his face
and eyes, he wouldn't be here.Copy !req
1190. I know my boy.Copy !req
1191. And the only thing
that's gonna heal himCopy !req
1192. is by getting
back on that stage.Copy !req
1193. That's where he lives.Copy !req
1194. - I understand that, sir.
- Oh, my God.Copy !req
1195. - But it's gonna be a while.
- Do you? All right.Copy !req
1196. Yes, I do. But, Mr. Jackson...Copy !req
1197. he's gonna need
your support to get there.Copy !req
1198. I'm sorry.Copy !req
1199. Praying for you, Michael!Copy !req
1200. It's unlikely
that will grow back.Copy !req
1201. You'll need surgery
to laser the scar tissueCopy !req
1202. and stretch part of the scalp
over the burn.Copy !req
1203. All right? We'll insert an implant
to protect the scalp.Copy !req
1204. Will I have to wear a wig?Copy !req
1205. Well, right there on top.Copy !req
1206. What kind of wig?
Like, a full wig?Copy !req
1207. Hard to say.Copy !req
1208. There are prosthetic
hair weaves we can try,Copy !req
1209. but we won't know till we see
how the surgery goes next week.Copy !req
1210. You'll, um...Copy !req
1211. you'll have to stay
on the Demerol for a while.Copy !req
1212. I don't want
to take medication.Copy !req
1213. I have to be honest,
Mr. Jackson,Copy !req
1214. you're gonna need them.Copy !req
1215. We have to replace
the implant periodically.Copy !req
1216. The nerves
are exposed up there.Copy !req
1217. You'll be in a lot of pain.Copy !req
1218. I'll let you rest,
but I'll be back later.Copy !req
1219. We'll stay here
till you're better, Michael!Copy !req
1220. You see the number of peopleCopy !req
1221. who have already gathered
outside the hospital.Copy !req
1222. If that isn't a testamentCopy !req
1223. to the star power
of Michael Jackson,Copy !req
1224. I don't know what is.Copy !req
1225. say they won't go back
until Jackson is all right.Copy !req
1226. All right.Copy !req
1227. All right, Joker.Copy !req
1228. Got all your favorites.Copy !req
1229. Golden Temple...Copy !req
1230. - they send their love.
- Golden Temple'sCopy !req
1231. - your favorite, Michael.
- Got some Mexican.Copy !req
1232. Chinese. Some fried chicken.Copy !req
1233. Even got these
little red candies you like.Copy !req
1234. Thanks, Bill.Copy !req
1235. You can just leave it there.Copy !req
1236. I'm not hungry.Copy !req
1237. Oh. Okay.Copy !req
1238. I'll leave you all to it.Copy !req
1239. - Okay. Thank you, Bill.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1240. I'm sorry, Michael.Copy !req
1241. I should have protected you.Copy !req
1242. Mother, I don't want to
discuss this right now.Copy !req
1243. Okay.Copy !req
1244. No one can stop Joseph.Copy !req
1245. Nobody.Copy !req
1246. You just know that,
no matter what happens,Copy !req
1247. I'm gonna be here for you...Copy !req
1248. always.Copy !req
1249. I should get
some rest now, Mother.Copy !req
1250. It's not your fault.Copy !req
1251. The world needs you, Michael!Copy !req
1252. How are you feeling?Copy !req
1253. I'm okay.Copy !req
1254. You know,
I'm still in a lot of pain.Copy !req
1255. But the doctors say
I'm healing, so...Copy !req
1256. Well, that's good news.Copy !req
1257. All these kids here...Copy !req
1258. they won't fully healCopy !req
1259. and there's burns
all over their bodies.Copy !req
1260. It just breaks my heart.Copy !req
1261. It truly does.Copy !req
1262. You know, it got me thinking...Copy !req
1263. I need to do more for them.Copy !req
1264. How much are we getting
for the accident?Copy !req
1265. It should be
around seven figures.Copy !req
1266. I need every penny donated
to the burn center here.Copy !req
1267. Please, you got to
make that happen.Copy !req
1268. Yeah, of course.Copy !req
1269. I'm getting really sleepy.Copy !req
1270. These pain meds.Copy !req
1271. You get some restCopy !req
1272. and I'll come
check on you tomorrow.Copy !req
1273. Okay.Copy !req
1274. - Did you bring that?
- Oh, the mouse.Copy !req
1275. Yeah. That's from me.Copy !req
1276. - I love that.
- Good.Copy !req
1277. Thank you, Branca.Copy !req
1278. - I'll see you tomorrow.
- See you.Copy !req
1279. If that boy doesn't
go on tour...Copy !req
1280. everything we have
falls apart.Copy !req
1281. I'm talking deals,
sponsorships, our reputation.Copy !req
1282. Everything.
Everything just gone.Copy !req
1283. Everything here.Copy !req
1284. The boys won't be able
to tour anymore.Copy !req
1285. Not without Michael.Copy !req
1286. Your son just got out of ICU.Copy !req
