{\pos(192,200)}How was your blind date?
2
00:00:07,882 --> 00:00:10,171
{\pos(192,200)}I waited in the coffee shop for an hour.
She never showed.
3
00:00:10,303 --> 00:00:12,693
Were you wearing that shirt?
She was there.
4
00:00:14,571 --> 00:00:16,674
I'm dropping off the kids.
Hi, Mitch.
5
00:00:16,935 --> 00:00:20,149
Nice shirt. You wanna rent scooters
and drive around the island?
6
00:00:22,132 --> 00:00:24,563
That's a fun game.
Make fun of the trained killer.
7
00:00:24,646 --> 00:00:26,375
We'll see how that one turns out.
8
00:00:27,482 --> 00:00:28,504
Look, Gary,
9
00:00:28,587 --> 00:00:32,184
Tom took a career aptitude test today.
Now, when he tells you about it, just
10
00:00:32,283 --> 00:00:34,092
don't have a disappointed look
on your face?
11
00:00:34,179 --> 00:00:36,316
Like the one I had in
our wedding photos?
12
00:00:37,606 --> 00:00:39,820
More like the one I had
on our wedding night.
13
00:00:41,375 --> 00:00:42,411
Sheck it out, dad.
14
00:00:42,494 --> 00:00:45,472
We took this test at school that tells
you what you should do for a living.
15
00:00:45,555 --> 00:00:49,069
Mine said I'd be perfectly suited
for a career in the service industry,
16
00:00:49,301 --> 00:00:53,253
like waiter, a bartender,
or guy who hands ice to the bartender.
17
00:00:54,961 --> 00:00:57,574
Don't worry about this test, Tom.
I took this test in high school.
18
00:00:57,661 --> 00:00:59,361
I don't even rember what I got on mine.
19
00:00:59,444 --> 00:01:02,192
Construction and maintenance,
with an emphasis on painting.
20
00:01:04,246 --> 00:01:06,733
And you obviously got
people skills. Why...
21
00:01:08,252 --> 00:01:11,106
But I think it's great. I mean,
how often do you get to know exactly
22
00:01:11,205 --> 00:01:13,406
what you're gonna do
for the rest of your life?
23
00:01:14,246 --> 00:01:16,032
And if one of those jobs
comes in a uniform,
24
00:01:16,115 --> 00:01:18,072
my decision-making days are over.
25
00:01:18,758 --> 00:01:22,113
{\Being a waiter?} What happened to the kid that
wanted to be a scientist or an archaeologist?
26
00:01:22,196 --> 00:01:24,972
I don't know. The kids are bombarded
with all this career stuff at this age.
27
00:01:25,055 --> 00:01:28,052
I think it's just his way of,
you know, handling the pressure.
28
00:01:28,141 --> 00:01:31,463
But the important thing is is
that we don't overreact to this, OK?
29
00:01:31,619 --> 00:01:33,969
So you go talk to him
while I go home and cry.
30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,234
Is this better?
31
00:01:39,811 --> 00:01:41,875
Tabascos of the world button-down.
32
00:01:43,730 --> 00:01:44,936
I like it, Mitch.
33
00:01:47,247 --> 00:01:49,777
I gotta go. Bye.
Hey, guess what, dad.
34
00:01:50,426 --> 00:01:53,150
My dance partner and I got chosen
for the recital in my hip-hop class.
35
00:01:53,405 --> 00:01:55,264
- Great.
- Hey, I love hip-hop.
36
00:01:55,492 --> 00:01:58,527
When I was stationed in Afghanistan, a
few of us tried to get a crew together.
37
00:01:58,615 --> 00:02:00,483
We called ourselves jala-bad.
38
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,310
- Can uncle Mitch take me to practice?
- It's fine with me.
39
00:02:04,395 --> 00:02:05,733
- Let's do it.
- Wait.
40
00:02:05,973 --> 00:02:07,977
You're not really going
to wear that shirt.
41
00:02:09,117 --> 00:02:11,186
- I'm not that popular as it is.
- Go.

46
00:02:28,525 --> 00:02:30,930
{\pos(192,210)}Did you know they call
this "marrying ketchups"?
47
00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:33,701
{\pos(192,200)}I now pronounce you heinz and hunt's.
48
00:02:34,940 --> 00:02:36,445
You may kiss the fries.
49
00:02:37,949 --> 00:02:39,540
{\pos(192,200)}That's really funny, Tom.
50
00:02:41,287 --> 00:02:45,107
{\pos(192,230)}Don't let that test dictate what you're
gonna do for the rest of your life.
51
00:02:45,362 --> 00:02:48,052
{\pos(192,230)}You always had such big dreams. What
happened to the kid I knew that wanted
52
00:02:48,135 --> 00:02:50,992
to be a veterinarian or
a rocket scientist?
53
00:02:51,075 --> 00:02:54,594
Or you wanted to be a biologi... that's
enough with the bottles now, please!
54
00:02:54,934 --> 00:02:56,978
{\pos(192,230)}Come on, Tommy.
You gotta snap out of this.
55
00:02:57,061 --> 00:02:59,961
{\pos(192,230)}You could do so much more than what
that test is telling you, Tom.
56
00:03:00,048 --> 00:03:03,067
{\pos(192,230)}If there's something else you really
are into, you should go for it.
57
00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:05,853
- Pursue your dream.
- Was it your dream to become a painter?
58
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,356
{\pos(192,230)}No. Painting was a way to pay the Bills,
but, you know, it wasn't my dream job.
59
00:03:09,566 --> 00:03:10,892
So what did you wanna be?
60
00:03:12,296 --> 00:03:15,230
{\pos(192,210)}I always wanted to have my own a.m.

61
00:03:15,447 --> 00:03:17,354
{\pos(192,210)}I even had a name for it.
Check this out.
62
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:21,655
{\pos(192,210)}I'm Gary Brooks, and this is the score.
We got dodger Tom Callin' in.
63
00:03:21,869 --> 00:03:24,797
He's mad as heck.
Maybe it's because he's a waiter.
64
00:03:27,162 --> 00:03:29,165
{\pos(192,210)}That's really cool.
I never knew about that.
65
00:03:30,296 --> 00:03:33,541
{\pos(192,210)}- So why did you give up on your dream?
- Excuse me? No, sir.
66
00:03:33,635 --> 00:03:35,758
{\pos(192,210)}I did not give up on that dream.

tryin' to make that dream happen, Tom.

{\pos(192,210)}Really?
How?
69
00:03:41,508 --> 00:03:45,388
{\pos(192,210)}I watch sports on Tv all the time,
right? That's valuable research.
70
00:03:45,601 --> 00:03:47,650
{\pos(192,220)}So that's how you're trying
to make it happen?
71
00:03:48,431 --> 00:03:50,295
- I do other stuff, too you know.
- Like what?
72
00:03:50,390 --> 00:03:53,183
Get off my back, Tom, all right?!
It just so happens
73
00:03:53,877 --> 00:03:55,544
{\pos(192,210)}I was gonna call my friend Curtis down
74
00:03:55,627 --> 00:03:58,440
{\pos(192,210)} at the a.m. Radio station
down in saugus, OK?
75
00:04:01,397 --> 00:04:04,108
{\pos(192,210)}What's up? Yeah, look,
I was wondering if there was any,
76
00:04:04,194 --> 00:04:06,787
{\pos(192,210)}opportunities for me, you know,
we talked about it once...
77
00:04:06,870 --> 00:04:08,785
{\pos(192,210)}Down there at the...
At the radio station.
78
00:04:11,730 --> 00:04:12,887
What?
There is?
79
00:04:14,261 --> 00:04:15,604
You're kidding me, right?
80
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:18,411
No you...
No you know this is Gary Brooks, right?
81
00:04:19,757 --> 00:04:23,329
Yeah. I could do that. That's great.
Good. Great. Thank you very much.
82
00:04:24,289 --> 00:04:27,509
I'm supposed to go down to the station
today and talk to his boss, Tommy!
83
00:04:27,596 --> 00:04:29,620
That's how you do it.
You get a dream,
84
00:04:29,703 --> 00:04:32,402
keep it in your heart and your head,
and you make it happen for yourself.
85
00:04:32,485 --> 00:04:33,686
This is unbelievable.
86
00:04:34,065 --> 00:04:36,714
You know, to be honest,
I thought you were full of crap.
87
00:04:37,180 --> 00:04:38,196
So did i.
88
00:04:40,428 --> 00:04:42,877
Uncle Mitch, I want you to
meet my dance partner, Bradley.
89
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,513
Hey, Bradley.
'sup?
90
00:04:45,332 --> 00:04:47,357
Bradley is the best
dancer in our whole class.
91
00:04:47,447 --> 00:04:50,593
His dad teaches
danceandmovement at Berkeley.
92
00:04:51,332 --> 00:04:52,824
Well, that would explain it.
93
00:04:53,352 --> 00:04:55,292
- I'm gonna go stretch out.
- All right.
94
00:04:56,217 --> 00:04:58,630
So Louise says you're a marine.
95
00:04:59,881 --> 00:05:01,697
She didn't tell you I was decorated?
96
00:05:02,818 --> 00:05:05,776
- That's weird.
- My dad doesn't like the marines.
97
00:05:06,714 --> 00:05:09,698
Well, this is America,
and your dad's entitled to his opinion.
98
00:05:10,005 --> 00:05:12,281
- He's anti-war.
- Terrific. Good for him.
99
00:05:13,314 --> 00:05:16,560
He says our national anthem should
be called the star-spangled bummer.
100
00:05:20,387 --> 00:05:22,177
Let me ask you a little question there.
101
00:05:24,304 --> 00:05:27,051
Who do you think it is that provides
your dad with the freedom and protection
102
00:05:27,134 --> 00:05:29,298
to prance around Berkeley
and actually make a living
103
00:05:29,381 --> 00:05:31,221
teaching a class called "movement"?
104
00:05:32,357 --> 00:05:35,150
Who do you think that is?
Think that's the marines, Bradley?
105
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,697
Yeah, I think it's the marines.
106
00:05:39,359 --> 00:05:40,776
Do me a favor, Bradley.
107
00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:44,498
When you get home tonight, ask your dad
what language he'd be speaking right now
108
00:05:44,585 --> 00:05:47,722
if the American soldiers who stormed
the beaches at Normandy
109
00:05:47,805 --> 00:05:50,458
had decided to be anti-war like him?
110
00:05:51,322 --> 00:05:53,063
Can you do that for me, Bradley?
111
00:05:54,232 --> 00:05:55,861
Sprechen sie deutsche?!
112
00:06:00,038 --> 00:06:01,965
- Were did bradley go?
- He ran away.
113
00:06:02,821 --> 00:06:04,509
I told you not to wear that shirt.
114
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,291
Ty cobb, babe ruth...
115
00:06:10,374 --> 00:06:12,609
These guys were no saints.
And now,
116
00:06:12,706 --> 00:06:16,399
with all the steroids, you're gonna
make an example out of Pete Rose?
117
00:06:17,035 --> 00:06:20,056
In 10 years,
Pete Rose will be in the hall of fame.
118
00:06:20,234 --> 00:06:21,586
You could bet on it.
119
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,065
Yeah. I know who'll take that bet.
Pete Rose.
120
00:06:25,867 --> 00:06:27,044
How you doin', man?
121
00:06:27,140 --> 00:06:29,343
I'm doin'good. I'm real excited
about this. This is great.
122
00:06:29,426 --> 00:06:31,445
- You got a call on line 2.
- Nobody knows I'm here.
123
00:06:31,601 --> 00:06:32,651
Not you. Him.
124
00:06:33,724 --> 00:06:35,325
Hey, you lookin' sharp today, man.
125
00:06:35,521 --> 00:06:36,662
Not you. Him.
126
00:06:38,144 --> 00:06:40,357
Look, I'm Kinda nervous
about meeting your boss.
127
00:06:40,567 --> 00:06:43,157
Hey, if things go south,
just pretend to hyperventilate
128
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,661
like you did when Stephanie Sheitel
caught you cheating.
129
00:06:45,949 --> 00:06:48,191
Yeah. You can't argue with
a guy who's hyperventilating.
130
00:06:48,274 --> 00:06:50,918
Unfortunately you can put
a brick through his windshield.
131
00:06:51,779 --> 00:06:54,383
- I'll walk you over to Sasha's office?
- OK. What's...
132
00:06:54,466 --> 00:06:57,083
- What's this girl Sasha like?
- You know, grew up rich.
133
00:06:57,182 --> 00:06:59,536
Daddy owns the station.
Doesn't know much about radio,
134
00:06:59,619 --> 00:07:03,263
but she has a smarty-pants, Fancy degree
so watch out for the S.A.T. Words.
135
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,469
And make sure to mark your orange juice
in the fridge, or she will drink it.
136
00:07:09,444 --> 00:07:11,761
I gotta tell you this means a lot to me.
Thank you.
137
00:07:11,844 --> 00:07:15,647
If I get a job here at a radio station,
it's a new life, it's a different world.
138
00:07:16,696 --> 00:07:18,686
Have a seat,
and i'll tell Sasha you're here.
139
00:07:23,437 --> 00:07:25,737
My buddy's here to talk
to you about painting the station.
140
00:07:25,824 --> 00:07:27,644
OK, Curtis, you can send the guy in.
141
00:07:27,743 --> 00:07:30,770
All right, thank you, Paul.
I'll get back to you on that.
142
00:07:34,143 --> 00:07:37,045
Hi. Thanks for seeing me.
I'm Gary Brooks. Hello.
143
00:07:37,833 --> 00:07:39,367
Hi. Sasha Warden.
144
00:07:43,094 --> 00:07:46,369
You come very highly recommended
from Curtis, Mr. Brooks.
145
00:07:47,262 --> 00:07:48,898
I've known Curtis a really long time,
146
00:07:48,981 --> 00:07:50,959
ever since we played football
together for...
147
00:07:51,046 --> 00:07:53,551
Fighting toreadors of Jefferson high!
148
00:07:54,587 --> 00:07:57,885
You know, the toreadors last year,
they finished their season 8 and 1.
149
00:07:57,968 --> 00:08:00,728
Of course,
their only loss was on astroturf.
150
00:08:01,776 --> 00:08:02,776
Thank you.
151
00:08:03,193 --> 00:08:04,854
That was...
Weird.
152
00:08:07,042 --> 00:08:09,877
So, how much experience do you have?
153
00:08:10,153 --> 00:08:13,308
None, really, but,
I watch sports all the time.
154
00:08:13,407 --> 00:08:16,231
- I talk about sports constantly.
- I don't see how that's Germane.
155
00:08:16,314 --> 00:08:18,691
It's Germane.
It's incredibly Germane, crazy Ger...
156
00:08:18,791 --> 00:08:20,667
Are you using the word the right way?
Germane?
157
00:08:21,322 --> 00:08:23,275
All right, so,
do you have your own crew?
158
00:08:23,589 --> 00:08:25,405
You mean like a posse? No.
159
00:08:26,553 --> 00:08:28,920
It's not my style.
I'm more of like a one-man type thing,
160
00:08:29,003 --> 00:08:32,051
but I'm open to bringing in a Sidekick
if there's good chemistry.
161
00:08:32,134 --> 00:08:34,556
OK. Well, we should talk about color.
162
00:08:35,311 --> 00:08:36,754
I only like whites.
163
00:08:41,396 --> 00:08:42,232
Excuse me?
164
00:08:42,317 --> 00:08:44,650
Whites, they're just
better in the workplace.
165
00:08:44,859 --> 00:08:46,160
You know, they're...
166
00:08:46,694 --> 00:08:49,362
They're brighter.
They're more positive.
167
00:08:49,695 --> 00:08:53,687
Yellows, yellows are OK,
but definitely no darks.
168
00:08:56,217 --> 00:08:57,205
Are you serious?
169
00:08:58,397 --> 00:09:00,604
- Is that a problem for you?
- Yes, that a problem for me.
170
00:09:00,687 --> 00:09:02,789
It's a big problem for me.
Does Curtis know about this?
171
00:09:02,883 --> 00:09:05,431
I'll run it by him,
but we don't have a lot of time.
172
00:09:05,514 --> 00:09:08,446
I would like the station painted by
the end of the month if that's possible.
173
00:09:11,620 --> 00:09:12,512
What?
174
00:09:12,719 --> 00:09:14,911
I would like it painted
by the end of the month.
175
00:09:15,488 --> 00:09:17,092
Is that unrealistic?
176
00:09:17,826 --> 00:09:20,748
No. It's not unrealistic at all.
177
00:09:21,181 --> 00:09:23,772
It's just right now,
I really wish you were a racist.
178
00:09:29,772 --> 00:09:33,565
OK, so maybe you can't see
yourself pursuing a career in
179
00:09:33,663 --> 00:09:36,331
{\pos(192,210)}sewing or painting or photography, but
180
00:09:36,414 --> 00:09:40,394
{\pos(192,210)}but have you ever considered the
fascinating field of medicine, Tommy?
181
00:09:41,011 --> 00:09:44,083
{\pos(192,210)}I mean, look at this very, very
graphic photo of syphilis. All right.
182
00:09:45,537 --> 00:09:48,037
Actually I was thinking if
dad's gonna be on the radio,
183
00:09:48,123 --> 00:09:50,065
maybe that's something I could do, too.
184
00:09:50,158 --> 00:09:52,295
You know, we can have our own show.
We could call it
185
00:09:52,378 --> 00:09:53,933
dos amigos locos.
186
00:09:56,152 --> 00:09:58,466
Hey, how did it go?
Did you get the job?
187
00:09:59,930 --> 00:10:01,324
I got a job, son.
188
00:10:01,407 --> 00:10:05,074
What misunderstanding it turns out they
wanted me to paint the radio station.
189
00:10:07,378 --> 00:10:10,015
- That makes sense.
- But it's a good job.
190
00:10:10,102 --> 00:10:12,722
It's a month of work. It's a 2-story
building. It's gonna take a while.
191
00:10:12,810 --> 00:10:15,343
I'll make some good money.
The point is I went for my dream.
192
00:10:15,442 --> 00:10:17,893
I went for it. That's what you
should take away from this, OK?
193
00:10:17,976 --> 00:10:21,119
I guess, but maybe some
dreams are just unrealistic.
194
00:10:22,247 --> 00:10:25,133
You're 15 years old. You don't know
where your life's gonna go, OK?
195
00:10:25,742 --> 00:10:27,275
Dad, come on.
Let's face it.
196
00:10:27,358 --> 00:10:30,211
Guys like you and me don't have
jobs like being on the radio.
197
00:10:30,391 --> 00:10:32,741
We listen to the radio
while we're at our jobs.
198
00:10:34,965 --> 00:10:37,769
Well, this is great.
I mean, he's less motivated than ever.
199
00:10:37,863 --> 00:10:40,229
And why would he be motivated?
I mean, look at me.
200
00:10:40,541 --> 00:10:44,122
I'm surrounded by a virtual graveyard of
things I've tried and lost interest in.
201
00:10:45,506 --> 00:10:47,458
Why'd you look at me when you said that?
202
00:10:48,323 --> 00:10:51,350
Look, I don't know how I'm gonna
do this, but I'm gonna get on the radio,
203
00:10:51,433 --> 00:10:53,973
and I'm gonna show my son
that dreams do come true, OK?
204
00:10:54,056 --> 00:10:56,195
How in the world did
we ever create Louise?
205
00:10:56,374 --> 00:10:57,816
It's a fluke, but it happens.
206
00:10:57,941 --> 00:11:00,266
The munsters,
they had that pretty daughter.
207
00:11:01,215 --> 00:11:02,495
I'll see ya, grandpa.
208
00:11:06,375 --> 00:11:09,571
Sorry I'm late. I was doin' the Moonwalk
on the way over here,
209
00:11:09,658 --> 00:11:11,611
and I just kept gettin' further away.
210
00:11:12,936 --> 00:11:15,522
- What are you doin' out here?
- Bradley won't dance with me.
211
00:11:15,619 --> 00:11:17,708
And if I don't have a partner,
i'm out of the recital.
212
00:11:17,845 --> 00:11:19,268
Why won't he dance with you?
213
00:11:19,353 --> 00:11:21,678
Well, it's because of you, uncle Mitch.
214
00:11:21,848 --> 00:11:22,568
Me?
215
00:11:22,651 --> 00:11:25,478
Yeah. You scared him the other day,
and now he won't even talk to me.
216
00:11:25,843 --> 00:11:27,496
He called you a warmonger.
217
00:11:28,708 --> 00:11:29,714
He did?
218
00:11:30,913 --> 00:11:32,270
He meant it in a bad way.
219
00:11:33,769 --> 00:11:35,647
- I'm gonna to talk to him.
- Wait. Wait.
220
00:11:35,922 --> 00:11:38,053
You're not going
to threaten him, are you?
221
00:11:38,756 --> 00:11:40,177
I've got something even more...
222
00:11:40,260 --> 00:11:42,871
Wait. Did you say, "threaten"?
Yes. That's what i'm gonna do.
223
00:11:44,628 --> 00:11:46,261
Hey. Sorry I'm late.
224
00:11:46,344 --> 00:11:49,142
Had to give Louise's dance
partner a little history Lesson.
225
00:11:49,595 --> 00:11:52,018
Turns out he actually knows
more history than I do.
226
00:11:52,491 --> 00:11:54,755
It's kind of frustrating,
but I still made him cry.
227
00:11:57,212 --> 00:11:58,430
There is Sasha.
228
00:11:58,647 --> 00:12:02,149
Time to turn on the old Brooks charm
and get myself on the air. Nice.
229
00:12:09,578 --> 00:12:10,826
So where are you from?
230
00:12:11,770 --> 00:12:13,260
- Virginia.
- You a hokie?
231
00:12:13,372 --> 00:12:14,526
Hokies!
232
00:12:16,376 --> 00:12:19,058
- I don't know what that means.
- Virginia tech. Hokies.
233
00:12:19,141 --> 00:12:21,516
You guys finished
15th in the country last year.
234
00:12:21,682 --> 00:12:24,316
Actually I went to oberlin.
I don't think we had a sports team.
235
00:12:24,856 --> 00:12:27,441
- Yeah, you did. The Yeomen.
- Fightin' Yeomen!
236
00:12:28,947 --> 00:12:31,002
Curtis, will you make sure
this fax goes through?
237
00:12:31,085 --> 00:12:32,555
I've got a lunch meeting.
238
00:12:33,979 --> 00:12:35,545
Hey, wait, wait. Listen.
239
00:12:36,248 --> 00:12:37,653
OK, I'll be honest with you.
240
00:12:37,995 --> 00:12:40,182
Little mix-up.
When I came in here for a job,
241
00:12:40,731 --> 00:12:43,554
I thought I was comin' in for a job
as an on-air sports guy.
242
00:12:44,002 --> 00:12:46,676
That's why I was wearing a suit
and that's why I was talking like this
243
00:12:46,763 --> 00:12:47,724
the whole time.
244
00:12:48,067 --> 00:12:49,397
How embarrassing.
245
00:12:50,611 --> 00:12:52,452
Felt like a complete idiot
sitting in there.
246
00:12:52,565 --> 00:12:54,499
No. I mean for me.
247
00:12:58,048 --> 00:13:01,381
I know it's asking a lot, but... I Kinda
told my son I was gonna be on the air.
248
00:13:01,468 --> 00:13:03,658
You could help me out.
I'll go in. I'll read a commercial,
249
00:13:03,741 --> 00:13:06,897
just a call letter, something, just
anything at all. You can help me out.
250
00:13:07,467 --> 00:13:09,145
I'm sorry.
I can't allow that.
251
00:13:09,595 --> 00:13:13,164
And please don't ask again.
It's very uncomfortable for me.
252
00:13:15,935 --> 00:13:17,059
I'm sorry, man.
253
00:13:17,146 --> 00:13:19,732
I didn't know you were talkin'
about on-air work when you called.
254
00:13:20,042 --> 00:13:22,641
That's OK, Curtis.
I just heard what I wanted to hear.
255
00:13:22,728 --> 00:13:25,517
I got so excited at the thought
of Tommy hearing me on the radio.
256
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,447
Let me take you out for a burger. I'm
sorry. I just feel bad about all this.
257
00:13:28,546 --> 00:13:30,082
Don't you have to stay in the booth?
258
00:13:30,186 --> 00:13:32,868
No. We got a prerecorded show.
I can skip out anytime I want.
259
00:13:32,993 --> 00:13:36,176
Then let me go in there read something.
I could read a commer anything.
260
00:13:36,259 --> 00:13:38,299
- I'll read the call letters.
- I don't know, man.
261
00:13:38,382 --> 00:13:41,090
- I don't know. I stand with Sasha yet.
- Let me tell you something, Curtis.
262
00:13:41,177 --> 00:13:43,323
I never told you this before,
but it's time you know.
263
00:13:43,419 --> 00:13:45,532
When we were in high school,
coach willis told me,
264
00:13:45,615 --> 00:13:48,102
"sorry, I'm cuttin' your friend Curtis
from the football team."
265
00:13:48,195 --> 00:13:50,248
And I told coach Willis,
"if you cut Curtis,
266
00:13:50,332 --> 00:13:54,059
you lose your star quarterback, Brooks."
I stood up for you, man. You owe me.
267
00:13:54,735 --> 00:13:55,817
Is any of that true?
268
00:13:55,928 --> 00:13:58,042
Yes. Coach willis was
our football coach.
269
00:14:00,443 --> 00:14:03,266
- All right, man. Get in here. Come on.
- Yes! Are you serious?
270
00:14:03,625 --> 00:14:06,001
Mitch, call Tommy.
Tell him to put on the radio.
271
00:14:06,096 --> 00:14:07,292
Callin' Tommy!
272
00:14:08,502 --> 00:14:10,698
Here. OK,
you can do the dodger wrap-up.
273
00:14:10,922 --> 00:14:13,564
Just read what's on the paper
and talk into the mike. Got it?
274
00:14:13,812 --> 00:14:16,900
Yeah. OK,
is there anything else I should know?
275
00:14:17,024 --> 00:14:18,501
- You're on.
- What?! Now?!
276
00:14:18,584 --> 00:14:20,680
No, I'm just messin' with you, man.
I'm playin'.
277
00:14:20,779 --> 00:14:22,804
Don't do that. That's horrible.
That's not funny.
278
00:14:22,887 --> 00:14:24,816
I'm gonna count you
in from the engineer booth,
279
00:14:24,915 --> 00:14:26,742
and when I point to you, you're on.
280
00:14:41,710 --> 00:14:44,285
I'm Gary Brooks,
and this is the dodger wrap-up.
281
00:14:44,383 --> 00:14:47,425
Matt Kemp homered for the second game
in a row to help the Dodgers
282
00:14:47,508 --> 00:14:48,711
sweep the Cardinals
283
00:14:48,794 --> 00:14:52,001
and extend their lead
in the national league west to 5 games.
284
00:14:53,474 --> 00:14:56,619
So that's what the Dodgers are doing.
Let's move on to the WNBA.
285
00:14:56,774 --> 00:15:00,207
{\pos(192,210)}They've decided to attract
more fans by dropping the "W."
286
00:15:02,900 --> 00:15:06,207
{\pos(192,210)}And moving on to hockey,
everybody still hates hockey.
287
00:15:11,065 --> 00:15:12,073
WNBA?
288
00:15:12,911 --> 00:15:14,954
Hockey? I told you to read
what was on the paper.
289
00:15:15,122 --> 00:15:16,949
What is wrong with you?
I'm probably fired.
290
00:15:17,042 --> 00:15:18,775
I'm sorry.
I was just trying to be funny.
291
00:15:18,858 --> 00:15:21,314
I'm just messin' with you, man.
I'm just messin' with you.
292
00:15:21,902 --> 00:15:25,393
Hey, man. Hey, that was hilarious, dude.
You're a natural. You did great.
293
00:15:25,729 --> 00:15:27,547
- Thanks.
- Hey, we got a call.
294
00:15:28,583 --> 00:15:29,690
Hello. KPPQ.
295
00:15:30,817 --> 00:15:31,874
Sure. Hold on.
296
00:15:32,676 --> 00:15:33,637
It's your son.
297
00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:35,450
You wanna take this call on the air?
298
00:15:35,811 --> 00:15:37,005
Are you kidding me?
299
00:15:37,451 --> 00:15:39,793
Oh, my gosh.
This is literally a dream come true.
300
00:15:41,265 --> 00:15:43,804
Push the caller button
when I point to you. Hockey.
301
00:15:47,605 --> 00:15:48,605
Oh Boy.
302
00:15:55,768 --> 00:15:57,236
Move it, mister.
303
00:15:57,517 --> 00:15:59,009
I'm 235.
304
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,488
What are you, a buck?
305
00:16:01,648 --> 00:16:03,091
Buck-o-5 tops.
306
00:16:03,819 --> 00:16:06,249
Thank you.
That's so sweet.
307
00:16:06,386 --> 00:16:07,835
Now get out of the way!
308
00:16:11,072 --> 00:16:12,900
Get out of the booth now.
309
00:16:13,575 --> 00:16:16,732
My son's on the line. Let me just take
this one phone call. I'll be done.
310
00:16:16,936 --> 00:16:18,480
You do, and you're fired.
311
00:16:24,459 --> 00:16:26,776
Welcome back to dodger wrap-up.
I'm Gary Brooks.
312
00:16:26,941 --> 00:16:30,925
We got a caller on the line.
We got Dodger Tom in Santa Monica.
313
00:16:31,008 --> 00:16:33,535
How you doin' there?
What'd you think of the game last night?
314
00:16:33,629 --> 00:16:36,169
It was good. Dad, you're on the air.
How cool is that?
315
00:16:37,887 --> 00:16:41,158
That was Dodger Tom with an interesting
take on the game last night.
316
00:16:41,257 --> 00:16:44,300
This has been Dodger wrap-up.
I'm Gary Brooks,
317
00:16:44,599 --> 00:16:46,651
and I'm on the air!
318
00:16:49,864 --> 00:16:53,028
This is pretty much the last of our
stuff. I'll be out of here in 5 minutes.
319
00:16:53,111 --> 00:16:54,329
- Thank you.
- Look.
320
00:16:54,412 --> 00:16:57,730
I don't know who you're planning
on hiring to, finish the job,
321
00:16:57,927 --> 00:17:00,290
but here's the business card
of a guy I could recommend.
322
00:17:01,603 --> 00:17:02,784
This is your card.
323
00:17:03,954 --> 00:17:05,249
I could start right away.
324
00:17:06,371 --> 00:17:08,841
- Good-bye, Mr. Brooks.
- Look, Sasha,
325
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:12,419
the only reason I did what I did is
'cause my son came home from school
326
00:17:12,502 --> 00:17:14,587
happy to be a waiter
for the rest of his life,
327
00:17:14,670 --> 00:17:17,749
I just wanted to get on the radio to
show him he could shoot for something,
328
00:17:17,832 --> 00:17:20,211
he could be more than what
I amounted to be.
329
00:17:20,294 --> 00:17:21,906
That's the only reason I did it.
330
00:17:22,099 --> 00:17:23,202
That's nice.
331
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,122
You know, my father never
cared about inspiring me.
332
00:17:26,354 --> 00:17:29,090
I had to beg him for a job
in the family business,
333
00:17:29,277 --> 00:17:30,532
and he stuck me here
334
00:17:30,709 --> 00:17:34,540
in this nothing radio station
where if I screw up, no one'll notice.
335
00:17:35,716 --> 00:17:36,923
Now I feel bad.
336
00:17:37,557 --> 00:17:39,194
- Am I still fired?
- Of course.
337
00:17:39,829 --> 00:17:42,440
I feel bad for me growing
up with a heartless father.
338
00:17:46,035 --> 00:17:48,526
You gonna be OK, man,
losing this job at the last minute?
339
00:17:48,652 --> 00:17:51,644
You kidding me? The economy's booming
right now. I'll pick something up.
340
00:17:52,593 --> 00:17:53,948
I just feel bad. I...
341
00:17:55,957 --> 00:17:59,352
Like that time when stephanie
sheitel caught you cheating.
342
00:17:59,887 --> 00:18:01,439
Yes. Yes, that's right.
343
00:18:02,261 --> 00:18:04,562
That was horrible.
But this is much worse.
344
00:18:07,087 --> 00:18:09,700
- What's going on? Are you OK?
- He's hyperventilating.
345
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,726
It's what happens when he thinks his
whole world is falling apart around him.
346
00:18:12,809 --> 00:18:15,298
- Is there something we can do?
- You got a paper bag or something?
347
00:18:15,394 --> 00:18:18,218
- Here. No, I got a purse.
- Gimme the purse. Gimme the purse.
348
00:18:18,958 --> 00:18:20,425
OK. That's not working.
349
00:18:21,857 --> 00:18:23,433
Should we call an ambulance?
350
00:18:23,516 --> 00:18:26,626
No, but he just needs to hear
a little bit of good news right now.
351
00:18:28,693 --> 00:18:30,434
I'm going to aspen for Christmas.
352
00:18:32,811 --> 00:18:34,664
Good news in his life.
353
00:18:36,155 --> 00:18:37,155
Fine.
354
00:18:37,355 --> 00:18:39,289
He can stay and paint the station.
355
00:18:40,621 --> 00:18:42,856
- Thank you. Let's get that burger.
- All right.
356
00:18:48,501 --> 00:18:49,500
Thank you.
357
00:18:49,825 --> 00:18:52,007
You know, I don't ask for a lot,
Mr. Brooks.
358
00:18:52,404 --> 00:18:55,733
Just stay away from the microphone
and either get a belt
359
00:18:55,829 --> 00:18:58,177
or pull up your paints
when you're painting the baseboards.
360
00:19:01,817 --> 00:19:03,119
You've earned that.
361
00:19:07,746 --> 00:19:09,288
Hey. Look who I found.
362
00:19:10,285 --> 00:19:11,634
Dad, That was awesome.
363
00:19:11,717 --> 00:19:14,186
My friends were listening.
We're, like, famous now.
364
00:19:14,269 --> 00:19:15,913
I thought we had pretty good chemistry.
365
00:19:15,999 --> 00:19:18,972
What do you think about
a show called dos amigos locos?
366
00:19:20,425 --> 00:19:23,197
"Two crazy friends."
Who wouldn't listen to that?
367
00:19:24,307 --> 00:19:26,682
Hey, Tommy, you want some free
stuff from the radio station?
368
00:19:26,944 --> 00:19:27,641
Sure.
369
00:19:27,724 --> 00:19:30,451
How about a pair of underwear that says,
"speak into the mike"?
370
00:19:38,755 --> 00:19:40,132
I'm really proud of you, Gary.
371
00:19:40,663 --> 00:19:43,959
Tommy is so excited.
I mean, you finally got on the radio.
372
00:19:44,195 --> 00:19:45,215
You know?
373
00:19:45,498 --> 00:19:47,328
I remember you talking
about that dream once.
374
00:19:47,411 --> 00:19:50,421
Although at the time, I think you
were just trying to get into my pants.
375
00:19:51,474 --> 00:19:54,473
I be honest with you. That was probably
one of the greatest moments of my life.
376
00:19:54,697 --> 00:19:56,049
Getting in my pants?
377
00:19:56,650 --> 00:19:59,378
No, getting on the radio.
Getting on the radio wasn't easy.
378
00:20:03,653 --> 00:20:07,633
Yeah. Yeah, you know what?
You didn't seem that hard yourself.
379
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,010
We'd been drinking all day
at the barbecue, rember?
380
00:20:19,638 --> 00:20:22,413
I'm sorry about Bradley.
I really thought he'd listen to reason.
381
00:20:22,631 --> 00:20:25,196
- Are you ready to do this?
- Semper fi.
382
00:21:00,891 --> 00:21:06,624
