1
00:00:04,004 --> 00:00:07,298
And that's why Abbott will
always stay in my heart.
2
00:00:08,425 --> 00:00:10,301
All right, I'll wrap this up.
3
00:00:10,385 --> 00:00:12,929
You know how I can carry on.
Right, Ava?
4
00:00:14,097 --> 00:00:15,724
I know you can, girl.
5
00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:17,600
Oh.
6
00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:19,602
Barbara, thank you
for all your kindness.
7
00:00:19,686 --> 00:00:21,896
Mel, all that
you've done for me.
8
00:00:21,980 --> 00:00:24,065
- I don't know how...
- Who is she again?
9
00:00:26,693 --> 00:00:28,278
I do not know
that woman's name.
10
00:00:28,278 --> 00:00:30,864
No, I know this.
I know this. It's, uh...
11
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:31,906
Is she a gym teacher?
12
00:00:31,990 --> 00:00:33,700
I don't really mess
with gym teachers.
13
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:35,702
Their voices never
match their faces.
14
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:41,207
♪ Ca-a-a-a-a-thy! ♪
15
00:00:41,291 --> 00:00:43,126
I cannot believe this is
16
00:00:43,126 --> 00:00:44,627
your last day with us.
17
00:00:44,711 --> 00:00:46,546
I mean, you have been
the greatest
18
00:00:46,546 --> 00:00:48,840
volunteer art teacher
this school has ever seen.
19
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:49,966
And look.
20
00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:51,801
Bermuda shorts,
because your favorite
21
00:00:51,885 --> 00:00:54,471
vacation spot is Bermuda!
22
00:00:54,471 --> 00:00:55,513
Well, how sweet.
23
00:00:55,597 --> 00:00:57,349
- Mm-hmm.
- Thank you!
24
00:00:57,349 --> 00:00:59,059
- You're so welcome.
- Aww.
25
00:01:01,353 --> 00:01:04,356
Barbara,
what is her name again?
26
00:01:22,165 --> 00:01:23,375
- Janine.
- Yeah?
27
00:01:23,375 --> 00:01:24,584
What's wrong with you?
28
00:01:24,584 --> 00:01:25,877
You psyching yourself up
to be yourself today?
29
00:01:25,877 --> 00:01:27,295
No.
30
00:01:27,379 --> 00:01:30,006
Today, my friend Sahar
is starting.
31
00:01:30,090 --> 00:01:32,801
So, when I heard we needed
a new volunteer art teacher,
32
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:34,052
I called my friend Sahar.
33
00:01:34,052 --> 00:01:38,139
She's a successful local artist,
and she's so cool.
34
00:01:38,223 --> 00:01:39,349
Check it out.
35
00:01:39,349 --> 00:01:41,393
This is us in college
when we first met.
36
00:01:43,395 --> 00:01:44,771
She never got wine stains
on her teeth.
37
00:01:44,771 --> 00:01:46,147
Ugh, God.
Man, believe it or not,
38
00:01:46,231 --> 00:01:48,024
I had a hard time making friends
back then.
39
00:01:48,108 --> 00:01:49,067
No.
40
00:01:49,067 --> 00:01:50,485
Yeah, yeah, I know.
41
00:01:50,485 --> 00:01:52,737
But Sahar really took me
outside of my box, and,
42
00:01:52,821 --> 00:01:53,863
you know, I'm sure
she's gonna do the same thing
43
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:55,031
for the kids,
and I don't know.
44
00:01:55,115 --> 00:01:57,200
- If you think I'm cool...
- I don't.
45
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,619
- Janine's cool.
- Yes, thank you, Jacob.
46
00:01:59,703 --> 00:02:00,829
She does puzzles. She knits.
47
00:02:00,829 --> 00:02:02,414
Just thank you, thank you.
48
00:02:02,414 --> 00:02:04,040
She wears orthopedics,
and she eats plums.
49
00:02:04,124 --> 00:02:05,166
What is wrong with plums?
50
00:02:05,250 --> 00:02:07,210
- I mean...
- They're not exactly the coolest fruit.
51
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:08,878
- You know what's a cool fruit?
- Mm.
52
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:10,505
- Kiwi.
- Exactly.
53
00:02:10,505 --> 00:02:12,340
Mm. Oh.
54
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:13,967
Janine!
55
00:02:13,967 --> 00:02:15,468
Oh, my God, Sahar!
56
00:02:15,552 --> 00:02:17,429
- Mwah, mwah.
- Mwah, mwah.
57
00:02:17,429 --> 00:02:18,596
Oh, she French?
58
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,223
Good morning, everyone.
I'm Sahar.
59
00:02:20,223 --> 00:02:23,059
So, you used to hang out
with Janine?
60
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:24,561
Was it some kind of
big sister thing
61
00:02:24,561 --> 00:02:26,062
or some kind of Make-A-Wish
for people
62
00:02:26,146 --> 00:02:27,564
who are dying of embarrassment?
63
00:02:28,732 --> 00:02:31,443
That is Ava. She's funny.
64
00:02:32,152 --> 00:02:34,029
Well, I'm so excited to be here.
65
00:02:34,029 --> 00:02:35,864
I cannot wait to collaborate.
66
00:02:35,864 --> 00:02:38,199
Okay, let me go
show you around. Come on.
67
00:02:39,576 --> 00:02:42,495
Pulling off overalls?
That's not easy.
68
00:02:42,579 --> 00:02:44,581
I'm telling you, Twitch
is more popular than TV.
69
00:02:44,581 --> 00:02:46,624
More people are actually
watching Twitch than...
70
00:02:46,708 --> 00:02:49,586
Jacob, I am trying to
oversee nutrition here.
71
00:02:49,586 --> 00:02:52,505
Oh, yeah, no, of course. Sorry.
72
00:02:52,589 --> 00:02:55,342
What about you, Devin?
Who's your favorite streamer?
73
00:02:55,342 --> 00:02:56,593
I'm busy, Caillou.
74
00:02:56,593 --> 00:02:58,970
Classic Devin.
75
00:02:59,679 --> 00:03:02,182
I can't believe this is what
they're serving the children.
76
00:03:04,642 --> 00:03:06,936
- Mm-mm-mm.
- Mm-mm-mm.
77
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:09,814
Budget cuts.
And it gets worse every year.
78
00:03:11,316 --> 00:03:13,109
Are there even any vegetables
in these meals?
79
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:14,861
Yeah. We got sprouts flown in
80
00:03:14,861 --> 00:03:17,030
from Brussels every morning.
81
00:03:17,739 --> 00:03:19,699
No use getting frustrated
with him.
82
00:03:19,783 --> 00:03:22,994
They're just like us -- doing
the best with what they got.
83
00:03:23,078 --> 00:03:25,622
I saw a NowThis video
about some teachers in Kentucky
84
00:03:25,622 --> 00:03:27,916
who built a vegetable garden
at their school.
85
00:03:27,916 --> 00:03:29,501
We could do something
like that here, I bet.
86
00:03:29,501 --> 00:03:31,461
- We?
- Jacob and Barbara.
87
00:03:31,461 --> 00:03:33,713
♪ The ultimate dream team ♪
88
00:03:33,797 --> 00:03:36,257
Jacob, stuff like that
won't work here.
89
00:03:36,341 --> 00:03:38,134
But -- But it's worked
in other schools.
90
00:03:38,218 --> 00:03:40,303
And -- And the great part is
it would help the kids,
91
00:03:40,387 --> 00:03:42,180
but also we'd get
to be gardening,
92
00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:44,891
which is like
the best thing ever.
93
00:03:45,475 --> 00:03:47,352
Now, that I will agree with.
94
00:03:47,352 --> 00:03:49,062
Oh, my God, are we doing this?
95
00:03:50,897 --> 00:03:53,483
I cannot believe that I'm
about ready to say this, but,
96
00:03:53,483 --> 00:03:55,860
Jacob, let's do this.
97
00:03:55,944 --> 00:03:56,986
Ah!
98
00:03:58,113 --> 00:03:59,072
I know
they're not assigned.
99
00:03:59,072 --> 00:04:01,157
We all understand
who parks where,
100
00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:03,368
and you parked
in my understood spot.
101
00:04:03,368 --> 00:04:04,494
You understand?
102
00:04:04,494 --> 00:04:05,745
Oh, um, she -- she understands.
103
00:04:05,829 --> 00:04:07,080
She got it.
104
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,416
Yeah, I totally --
I -- I'm really sorry.
105
00:04:09,416 --> 00:04:10,709
It won't happen again.
I'm just --
106
00:04:10,709 --> 00:04:12,127
I'm still getting used to
the way the place works.
107
00:04:12,127 --> 00:04:14,504
It's all good.
That's in the past.
108
00:04:14,504 --> 00:04:16,006
Not what I came
to talk about anyway.
109
00:04:16,006 --> 00:04:18,008
Well, it's what
you started with.
110
00:04:18,008 --> 00:04:19,843
I'm joking.
111
00:04:19,843 --> 00:04:21,636
So, what I came to talk about is
112
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,722
this year's Peter Rabbit
project, which...
113
00:04:23,722 --> 00:04:25,849
Oh, oh, oh, it's so great.
114
00:04:25,849 --> 00:04:28,184
You know, every year, both
our classes read Peter Rabbit,
115
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:30,020
and then, with the art teacher,
116
00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:33,148
the kids make their own versions
of Peter with paper plates.
117
00:04:33,148 --> 00:04:35,191
It's the big art project
of the second grade.
118
00:04:35,275 --> 00:04:36,359
- It's great.
- And this year...
119
00:04:36,443 --> 00:04:37,861
- Mm-hmm?
- ...there's a surprise.
120
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,114
Oh, my goodness.
121
00:04:41,114 --> 00:04:42,282
Are these new?!
122
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:43,450
You tell me.
123
00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:45,368
Okay, um...no chocolate stains.
124
00:04:45,452 --> 00:04:47,078
No mildew.
125
00:04:47,162 --> 00:04:48,872
Look at this binding tension.
126
00:04:48,872 --> 00:04:49,998
Oh!
127
00:04:49,998 --> 00:04:51,082
How did you get these?
128
00:04:51,166 --> 00:04:52,751
I bought them.
129
00:04:54,252 --> 00:04:56,046
With your own money? No favors?
130
00:04:56,046 --> 00:04:57,505
All me.
131
00:04:58,131 --> 00:05:01,134
Oh, yeah, I've been doing
this project for 15 years.
132
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:03,553
It's the first thing I did
that the kids really loved.
133
00:05:03,553 --> 00:05:04,596
Um...
134
00:05:05,638 --> 00:05:07,849
This one was from my first year.
135
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:12,187
I-It's Styrofoam.
136
00:05:12,187 --> 00:05:13,563
I get they're bad
for the environment,
137
00:05:13,563 --> 00:05:15,065
but you try
floating pigs in a blanket
138
00:05:15,065 --> 00:05:17,400
across a hot tub
on a paper plate.
139
00:05:17,484 --> 00:05:19,361
- It's legendary.
- Yeah, you're gonna love it.
140
00:05:19,361 --> 00:05:21,654
We can talk logistics later.
141
00:05:21,738 --> 00:05:23,239
Awesome! Can't wait!
142
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:25,408
This project
is right up your alley.
143
00:05:25,492 --> 00:05:27,202
Are we sure Peter Rabbit
is the way to go?
144
00:05:27,202 --> 00:05:28,870
- Oop?
- I just wonder if there's maybe
145
00:05:28,870 --> 00:05:31,206
a more relevant story?
146
00:05:31,206 --> 00:05:34,626
Well, Melissa just got
all those new copies.
147
00:05:39,255 --> 00:05:40,465
S-Sahar?
148
00:05:41,049 --> 00:05:42,217
I've got it, and I love it.
149
00:05:42,217 --> 00:05:43,802
- Oh.
- We're gonna elevate the story.
150
00:05:43,802 --> 00:05:46,096
Delve deep beneath the surface
of Peter Rabbit
151
00:05:46,096 --> 00:05:48,223
and uncover the metaphors
hidden in the story.
152
00:05:48,223 --> 00:05:50,892
Oh. Yes. Totally.
153
00:05:50,892 --> 00:05:52,852
Yes. I mean, most people
just think of it
154
00:05:52,936 --> 00:05:55,897
as this story about a rabbit
who steals carrots.
155
00:05:55,897 --> 00:05:58,817
But we're not like most people.
We see subtext.
156
00:05:58,817 --> 00:06:01,695
It's a story about domesticity
and capitalism.
157
00:06:01,695 --> 00:06:04,906
Exactly. That's what
I've always said.
158
00:06:04,906 --> 00:06:06,616
Just wait for me
159
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:08,118
before you talk to Melissa.
160
00:06:08,118 --> 00:06:09,244
Of course.
161
00:06:09,244 --> 00:06:11,746
This is classic
Janine and Sahar.
162
00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:14,833
I mean, being her friend
is so exciting.
163
00:06:14,833 --> 00:06:17,544
We are just doing a ton
of cool stuff all the time,
164
00:06:17,544 --> 00:06:19,546
like going to a party
at Tierra Whack's house,
165
00:06:19,546 --> 00:06:20,880
which she got to go.
166
00:06:20,964 --> 00:06:22,549
I actually -- I stood outside
167
00:06:22,549 --> 00:06:25,427
and, um, I just listened
because I couldn't get in.
168
00:06:25,427 --> 00:06:26,970
It all sounded so fun.
169
00:06:26,970 --> 00:06:28,722
Everyone was having
a really good time.
170
00:06:31,850 --> 00:06:34,019
Jacob.
171
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:38,732
Well, would you look at us?
172
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:42,068
Well, you have fine taste,
Mr. Hill.
173
00:06:42,152 --> 00:06:43,111
- As do you.
- Mm.
174
00:06:43,111 --> 00:06:44,863
You know, the origin of sun hats
is an interesting...
175
00:06:44,863 --> 00:06:46,656
Why don't we just put on
some music?
176
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:48,825
- Absolutely.
- Mm-hmm.
177
00:06:51,995 --> 00:06:53,788
Is that bossa nova?
178
00:06:53,872 --> 00:06:54,873
Yeah. I-I can change it
if you want.
179
00:06:54,873 --> 00:06:56,041
No, no.
180
00:06:56,041 --> 00:06:58,168
I love it.
181
00:06:58,168 --> 00:07:00,545
- Great.
- Okay.
182
00:07:00,545 --> 00:07:01,838
There you are.
183
00:07:01,838 --> 00:07:03,506
- Thank you.
- I, uh...
184
00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:05,216
I bought some
pre-sprouted plants
185
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:06,843
to expedite the process.
186
00:07:06,843 --> 00:07:09,179
I thought we could have
a space for veggies
187
00:07:09,179 --> 00:07:10,597
and one for fruits.
188
00:07:10,597 --> 00:07:12,015
Well, you know, I thought
it might also be nice
189
00:07:12,015 --> 00:07:14,225
if we had a section
for flowers, too.
190
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:16,311
Ah. One step ahead of ya.
191
00:07:18,646 --> 00:07:20,607
Lilies!
192
00:07:20,607 --> 00:07:23,735
Like my favorite movie,
Lilies of the Field.
193
00:07:23,735 --> 00:07:25,570
Ah! You know what?
194
00:07:25,570 --> 00:07:28,573
They just don't make men
like Sidney Poitier anymore.
195
00:07:28,573 --> 00:07:30,658
They -- They don't.
196
00:07:30,742 --> 00:07:32,369
They most certainly do not.
197
00:07:34,204 --> 00:07:36,331
Hey, y'all.
What's happening here?
198
00:07:36,331 --> 00:07:37,916
Jacob and I are starting
a garden
199
00:07:37,916 --> 00:07:39,918
to grow some vegetables
for the students.
200
00:07:39,918 --> 00:07:42,587
Oh, wow. That's really cool.
201
00:07:42,671 --> 00:07:44,381
We got an extra pair of gloves
if you want in.
202
00:07:44,381 --> 00:07:46,716
No, thanks, I'm good.
I mean, I appreciate it, though.
203
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,260
Just the opposite
of green thumbs over here.
204
00:07:49,344 --> 00:07:51,846
In the '60s, my grandfather
started a landscaping business,
205
00:07:51,930 --> 00:07:53,181
Eddie Lawn & Care.
206
00:07:53,181 --> 00:07:55,392
Then, in the '90s,
my father took it over.
207
00:07:55,392 --> 00:07:56,976
Then, for the first 20 years
of my life,
208
00:07:57,060 --> 00:07:59,562
I spent every single
summer "vacation"
209
00:07:59,646 --> 00:08:01,356
planting, mowing, and raking.
210
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,318
I cannot stand gardening.
211
00:08:05,402 --> 00:08:06,861
You don't want to over-water
that one.
212
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:09,906
From what I've heard.
213
00:08:12,492 --> 00:08:14,077
Amaya, you are
in Jupiter's group.
214
00:08:14,077 --> 00:08:15,620
Stop hoarding Saturn's rings.
215
00:08:15,704 --> 00:08:17,330
What do you mean
by old? Old how?
216
00:08:17,414 --> 00:08:18,832
Like I'm old
or it's old-fashioned?
217
00:08:18,832 --> 00:08:19,916
What -- What old?
No, no.
218
00:08:19,916 --> 00:08:22,502
The project is just
a little elementary.
219
00:08:22,502 --> 00:08:24,713
Of course it's elementary!
This is an elementary school!
220
00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:25,922
Okay, I misspoke. I shouldn't
have said "elementary."
221
00:08:26,006 --> 00:08:26,965
- I'm sorry.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa.
222
00:08:26,965 --> 00:08:29,342
- What's going on?
- Little miss MoMA over here
223
00:08:29,426 --> 00:08:32,178
thinks a beloved tradition
is too "elementary"
224
00:08:32,262 --> 00:08:33,638
for second graders,
so she wants to do
225
00:08:33,722 --> 00:08:36,516
some installation
in the library instead.
226
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:38,351
I don't not want
to do your project.
227
00:08:38,435 --> 00:08:41,104
I just -- You know, Janine and I
were talking earlier today.
228
00:08:41,104 --> 00:08:43,398
Oh, oh, oh,
you're in on this, too?
229
00:08:43,398 --> 00:08:45,525
Mm, let's all just
take a deep breath
230
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:46,985
and ask ourselves...
231
00:08:46,985 --> 00:08:48,361
We want to elevate the project.
232
00:08:48,445 --> 00:08:49,404
Could you stop saying "we"?
233
00:08:49,404 --> 00:08:51,031
Okay, we're doing
the bunny plates
234
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:52,615
like we've always done,
235
00:08:52,699 --> 00:08:54,117
and that's the end
of the discussion.
236
00:08:54,117 --> 00:08:56,327
Janine, get your girl
and tell her to watch out,
237
00:08:56,411 --> 00:08:58,329
because you don't know
who you're messing with.
238
00:09:02,042 --> 00:09:04,878
Okay, so, um,
what I got from that
239
00:09:04,878 --> 00:09:06,212
is you should watch out
240
00:09:06,296 --> 00:09:08,131
and you don't know
who you're messing with.
241
00:09:08,131 --> 00:09:09,716
- Mm.
- Uh...
242
00:09:10,842 --> 00:09:13,386
I am so sorry
that got so intense,
243
00:09:13,470 --> 00:09:15,555
but that's why
I wanted you to wait
244
00:09:15,555 --> 00:09:16,973
for me to talk to Melissa
with you.
245
00:09:17,057 --> 00:09:19,768
No apology necessary.
At least she's passionate.
246
00:09:19,768 --> 00:09:20,935
True, true.
247
00:09:21,019 --> 00:09:23,396
But still, I'm sorry
your art installation project
248
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:24,856
got shut down.
249
00:09:24,856 --> 00:09:27,275
Oh, we're gonna do
the installation.
250
00:09:27,359 --> 00:09:29,611
Since when have we let
one "no" stop us?
251
00:09:29,611 --> 00:09:30,862
A "no" from Melissa
252
00:09:30,862 --> 00:09:33,698
is like a thousand "no's"
from anybody else.
253
00:09:33,782 --> 00:09:35,575
Melissa's gonna love
the installation.
254
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:36,701
She just doesn't know it yet
255
00:09:36,785 --> 00:09:38,495
'cause she doesn't
think like us.
256
00:09:38,495 --> 00:09:40,747
- We're wired different.
- Totally, totally.
257
00:09:40,747 --> 00:09:42,374
I think it's
"wired differently," but...
258
00:09:42,374 --> 00:09:43,750
What happened to
the Janine who was
259
00:09:43,750 --> 00:09:46,378
hopping over turnstiles last
year to protest minimum wage
260
00:09:46,378 --> 00:09:47,504
for transit workers?
261
00:09:47,504 --> 00:09:48,963
Actually, I did pay
262
00:09:49,047 --> 00:09:50,882
'cause I couldn't get over
the turnstile
263
00:09:50,882 --> 00:09:52,217
and that's how they get paid,
264
00:09:52,217 --> 00:09:53,677
so it wasn't making sense
as a protest.
265
00:09:53,677 --> 00:09:55,011
Let me ask you this question.
266
00:09:55,095 --> 00:09:56,262
Did you take this job
267
00:09:56,346 --> 00:09:58,264
so that you could be
part of the system
268
00:09:58,348 --> 00:10:01,434
or because
you wanted to inspire...
269
00:10:01,518 --> 00:10:03,019
- What's your name?
- Bria.
270
00:10:03,103 --> 00:10:05,188
...students like Bria
and her friends
271
00:10:05,188 --> 00:10:07,691
to be the next generation
of free thinkers?
272
00:10:12,987 --> 00:10:14,155
You're good.
273
00:10:14,239 --> 00:10:16,282
You know how to
get me fired up. Ha!
274
00:10:16,366 --> 00:10:18,118
But still,
we can't use the library
275
00:10:18,118 --> 00:10:19,452
without Melissa's co-sign.
276
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:20,829
I mean, it's her project.
277
00:10:20,829 --> 00:10:23,665
What did we do in college when
the TAs gave us unfair grades?
278
00:10:23,665 --> 00:10:26,251
- Cry and accept it?
- Flirt with the professor.
279
00:10:27,377 --> 00:10:29,546
No, I-I -- You did that?
280
00:10:29,546 --> 00:10:31,923
All I'm saying is, we just got
to go over Melissa's head.
281
00:10:32,007 --> 00:10:33,967
She is so right.
282
00:10:33,967 --> 00:10:36,052
Sometimes I forget
why I got into this job,
283
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:37,679
but Sahar reminded me in a way
284
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,639
where I didn't even know
it was happening.
285
00:10:39,723 --> 00:10:40,765
Just like boom!
286
00:10:40,849 --> 00:10:42,851
So cool.
287
00:10:42,851 --> 00:10:44,269
Actually, you know,
it was my grandmother
288
00:10:44,269 --> 00:10:46,438
that fostered my love
of gardening.
289
00:10:46,438 --> 00:10:47,897
And mischief.
290
00:10:49,024 --> 00:10:51,484
I'm dead. I am dead.
291
00:10:53,403 --> 00:10:54,529
- Oh!
- Ooh!
292
00:10:54,529 --> 00:10:56,489
Great work, buddy!
293
00:10:56,573 --> 00:10:58,366
Aww!
294
00:10:58,450 --> 00:10:59,909
Let's get this
little guy inside.
295
00:11:03,455 --> 00:11:04,414
Crap.
296
00:11:04,414 --> 00:11:06,458
Jacob and Barbara have
no idea what they're doing.
297
00:11:06,458 --> 00:11:08,918
He was trying to plant a coconut
in West Philadelphia
298
00:11:09,002 --> 00:11:11,379
in soil with a sub-6.3 pH.
299
00:11:13,548 --> 00:11:14,507
Bruh!
300
00:11:14,591 --> 00:11:16,885
Devin, my guy, look at this.
301
00:11:16,885 --> 00:11:18,511
What do you suits want?
302
00:11:18,595 --> 00:11:19,554
What's that for?
303
00:11:19,554 --> 00:11:21,014
Eating.
304
00:11:21,014 --> 00:11:22,098
It's a zucchini.
305
00:11:22,182 --> 00:11:23,933
I know what a zucchini is, man.
306
00:11:24,017 --> 00:11:25,518
What do you want me
to do with it?
307
00:11:25,602 --> 00:11:28,313
We are growing vegetables
for the kids in our new garden.
308
00:11:28,313 --> 00:11:29,606
We birthed this.
309
00:11:29,606 --> 00:11:30,732
Oh, you birthed it?
310
00:11:30,732 --> 00:11:32,984
Let me -- Can I? Let me see.
311
00:11:33,068 --> 00:11:34,194
Oh, look, you birthed it.
312
00:11:34,194 --> 00:11:35,236
The baby!
313
00:11:36,363 --> 00:11:38,948
Look at that baby!
314
00:11:39,032 --> 00:11:39,991
Baby Sidney!
315
00:11:40,075 --> 00:11:41,993
The disrespect!
316
00:11:42,077 --> 00:11:44,162
What am I supposed to do
with a twerp squash?
317
00:11:44,162 --> 00:11:45,997
Feed half a kid? Come on, man.
318
00:11:46,081 --> 00:11:48,500
Of course not. That was just
a sample of what's to come.
319
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:49,834
Once these plants
start blooming,
320
00:11:49,918 --> 00:11:52,253
we're gonna be
swimming in squash.
321
00:11:52,337 --> 00:11:53,838
And then what? We prepare them?
322
00:11:53,922 --> 00:11:55,382
We do not have time.
323
00:11:55,382 --> 00:11:57,050
We're barely getting by as is.
324
00:11:57,050 --> 00:11:59,260
Y'all can make-believe
on your own time.
325
00:12:02,430 --> 00:12:04,849
So, not the reaction
I was hoping for.
326
00:12:04,933 --> 00:12:06,184
Devin's right.
327
00:12:07,435 --> 00:12:09,521
- We're being foolish.
- Barbara!
328
00:12:09,521 --> 00:12:12,982
I cannot believe that
I let myself get carried away.
329
00:12:13,066 --> 00:12:14,150
Projects like this,
330
00:12:14,234 --> 00:12:17,112
they do not work
in public schools.
331
00:12:19,364 --> 00:12:20,907
I pulled a Janine.
332
00:12:20,907 --> 00:12:22,534
I-I still think
there's a way to make...
333
00:12:22,534 --> 00:12:24,035
You -- Mnh-mnh!
334
00:12:24,119 --> 00:12:26,538
- Mnh!
- ...it work.
335
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:30,792
There's gotta be
a solution here, you know?
336
00:12:32,419 --> 00:12:35,046
Because, you know,
if I have to go into that garden
337
00:12:35,130 --> 00:12:38,341
without my girl Barbara...
338
00:12:38,425 --> 00:12:40,427
Sorry.
339
00:12:40,427 --> 00:12:42,846
Hey, Ava!
340
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:44,055
What do you think of these?
341
00:12:44,139 --> 00:12:45,640
Oh, wow, those are fun.
342
00:12:45,724 --> 00:12:47,642
Not you, Carlton.
I was asking Sahar.
343
00:12:47,726 --> 00:12:49,769
I agree with Janine.
I think they're so fun.
344
00:12:49,853 --> 00:12:51,646
You have really good taste.
345
00:12:51,730 --> 00:12:55,233
So, Ava, we have
a little favor to ask you.
346
00:12:58,695 --> 00:13:00,196
She not hear me?
347
00:13:01,197 --> 00:13:02,615
You know, Ava...
348
00:13:03,533 --> 00:13:05,410
When I was doing ayahuasca
in Peru,
349
00:13:05,410 --> 00:13:07,078
I was visited
by an Earth goddess
350
00:13:07,162 --> 00:13:10,540
who had the exact same
energy profile as you.
351
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:12,333
It was beautiful.
352
00:13:12,417 --> 00:13:14,627
Girl, don't you throw up
and poop your pants on that?
353
00:13:15,879 --> 00:13:17,422
You're funny.
354
00:13:17,422 --> 00:13:19,466
Janine and I were wondering
if we could use the library
355
00:13:19,466 --> 00:13:21,593
for a little installation
we're planning.
356
00:13:21,593 --> 00:13:23,219
- Like an art show?
- Kind of.
357
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:24,262
- It's for the kids.
- Mm-hmm.
358
00:13:24,346 --> 00:13:26,765
It's sort of an elevated version
of Melissa's idea.
359
00:13:26,765 --> 00:13:29,684
Oh, elevated? Hell yeah,
you got my okay on that.
360
00:13:29,768 --> 00:13:30,894
- Great.
- Darling.
361
00:13:30,894 --> 00:13:32,771
Well, have a great day, Ava.
362
00:13:32,771 --> 00:13:34,105
Don't tell me
what kind of day to have.
363
00:13:34,189 --> 00:13:35,899
Getting all presumptuous
and rude.
364
00:13:36,608 --> 00:13:38,026
Hey, Ava,
365
00:13:38,026 --> 00:13:39,736
I hope today shimmers for you.
366
00:13:39,736 --> 00:13:42,489
You know what, Sahar?
I think it will.
367
00:13:45,116 --> 00:13:47,202
Oh, got a little schmutz there.
368
00:13:47,202 --> 00:13:49,954
Oh, a, uh...a kid sneezed on me.
369
00:13:52,415 --> 00:13:54,459
Morning, everyone!
Barbara, look.
370
00:13:57,379 --> 00:13:58,630
Zucchini!
371
00:13:58,630 --> 00:14:00,382
Washed, grilled, ready to eat.
372
00:14:00,382 --> 00:14:02,801
There's no way all that zucchini
came from your garden.
373
00:14:02,801 --> 00:14:04,594
- I assume.
- Assume correctly
374
00:14:04,678 --> 00:14:06,596
you did, Gregory, because
I went to the farmers' market.
375
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:07,764
I bought a ton of zucchini
376
00:14:07,764 --> 00:14:09,474
and basically stayed up
all night preparing it.
377
00:14:09,474 --> 00:14:10,850
Did you guys know
you're supposed to dilute
378
00:14:10,934 --> 00:14:12,519
cold brew concentrate
with water?
379
00:14:12,519 --> 00:14:14,145
I didn't.
380
00:14:14,229 --> 00:14:15,605
Can't really feel my toes.
381
00:14:15,689 --> 00:14:18,566
So, you stayed up all night
preparing this?
382
00:14:18,650 --> 00:14:21,194
I did. Devin said they didn't
have time to do it, so I did it.
383
00:14:22,487 --> 00:14:25,198
Jacob.
384
00:14:25,198 --> 00:14:26,658
I am really impressed.
385
00:14:26,658 --> 00:14:27,826
Ooh!
386
00:14:27,826 --> 00:14:28,952
You did a real...
387
00:14:28,952 --> 00:14:30,078
- Go, Man, Go?
- Go, Man, Go!
388
00:14:30,078 --> 00:14:31,121
Yes!
389
00:14:31,121 --> 00:14:32,872
What the hell is happening?
390
00:14:32,956 --> 00:14:34,249
There's more in my car.
391
00:14:34,249 --> 00:14:36,876
Melissa, I think
you're going to love
392
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,086
what the kids and I
have created.
393
00:14:38,086 --> 00:14:39,671
There better be
paper-plate bunnies.
394
00:14:39,671 --> 00:14:41,673
Oh, there are definitely
paper-plate bunnies.
395
00:14:41,673 --> 00:14:43,049
There are
paper-plate bunnies, right?
396
00:14:43,133 --> 00:14:45,010
There are paper-plate bunnies.
397
00:14:45,010 --> 00:14:46,970
And more than that,
there's passion.
398
00:14:46,970 --> 00:14:48,972
Let the experience begin.
399
00:14:48,972 --> 00:14:50,181
Yeah, okay.
400
00:14:57,439 --> 00:14:59,024
Wow!
401
00:14:59,024 --> 00:15:02,235
Guys, this is just great work!
402
00:15:02,235 --> 00:15:03,737
- Oh, my goodness!
- Great work!
403
00:15:03,737 --> 00:15:05,864
Wow, these look so good.
404
00:15:05,864 --> 00:15:07,699
Oh, my gosh.
405
00:15:07,699 --> 00:15:10,326
We all worked very hard
on our bunnies,
406
00:15:10,410 --> 00:15:13,413
so we thought it was only right
to give them a home.
407
00:15:17,125 --> 00:15:19,127
- Oh, my gosh.
- Oh, wow.
408
00:15:19,127 --> 00:15:20,712
Sahar!
409
00:15:20,712 --> 00:15:23,923
I don't usually explain
my art to other people,
410
00:15:24,007 --> 00:15:26,384
and I'm sure you already
totally get it.
411
00:15:26,468 --> 00:15:28,053
Yeah, no, couldn't be clearer.
412
00:15:28,053 --> 00:15:32,057
Sahar, I got to hand it to you,
this is wonderful.
413
00:15:32,057 --> 00:15:34,726
My thesis was
to break societal norms
414
00:15:34,726 --> 00:15:37,062
by creating and destroying
all at once,
415
00:15:37,062 --> 00:15:40,398
using what held us back
to propel us forward.
416
00:15:40,482 --> 00:15:42,400
Yeah, I mean,
that's how you got to do it.
417
00:15:48,031 --> 00:15:49,949
- Sahar.
- Mm-hmm?
418
00:15:50,033 --> 00:15:51,534
What is this garden
made of?
419
00:15:51,618 --> 00:15:53,161
Oh, that's the best part.
420
00:15:53,161 --> 00:15:55,580
It's made out of
the Peter Rabbit books.
421
00:16:03,630 --> 00:16:04,756
Niecy.
422
00:16:07,884 --> 00:16:10,053
- Yeah, it'll work.
- For what?
423
00:16:10,053 --> 00:16:12,847
To brutally bludgeon
your friend.
424
00:16:12,931 --> 00:16:14,307
Why are you reacting this way?
425
00:16:14,391 --> 00:16:15,809
The project was gorgeous.
426
00:16:15,809 --> 00:16:18,645
Sahar, you ruined
the books she bought.
427
00:16:18,645 --> 00:16:20,397
- Mm-hmm.
- You all don't understand.
428
00:16:20,397 --> 00:16:22,232
The whole project
was about pushing boundaries.
429
00:16:22,232 --> 00:16:24,651
How about I push the boundaries
of your head with this book?!
430
00:16:24,651 --> 00:16:25,777
No!
431
00:16:27,612 --> 00:16:29,280
All right.
432
00:16:33,952 --> 00:16:35,954
Sahar, this project was about
433
00:16:35,954 --> 00:16:38,123
the kids practicing
their fine motor skills
434
00:16:38,123 --> 00:16:39,457
in a creative way.
435
00:16:39,541 --> 00:16:40,625
You took this way too far.
436
00:16:40,709 --> 00:16:41,876
There's no such thing.
437
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,421
And we can just get more books.
It's not hard.
438
00:16:44,421 --> 00:16:46,089
It is hard, actually.
439
00:16:46,089 --> 00:16:49,050
Then I'll use some of my money
to create a personal grant
440
00:16:49,134 --> 00:16:51,052
so that the school can
get more relevant books
441
00:16:51,136 --> 00:16:52,220
than Peter Rabbit.
442
00:16:52,220 --> 00:16:53,555
What is your problem
with Peter Rabbit?
443
00:16:53,555 --> 00:16:54,889
It's just been done.
444
00:16:54,973 --> 00:16:56,516
It's done for a reason.
445
00:16:56,516 --> 00:16:57,976
Are there even any
bunnies of color in it?
446
00:16:57,976 --> 00:16:59,477
The kids like it, okay?
447
00:16:59,561 --> 00:17:01,146
Just because a bunch
of people like something
448
00:17:01,146 --> 00:17:02,355
doesn't make it bad.
449
00:17:02,439 --> 00:17:03,398
Eh.
450
00:17:03,398 --> 00:17:05,316
Sahar, we owe
Melissa an apology.
451
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,485
Wow. I knew it.
452
00:17:07,569 --> 00:17:09,654
- I knew you were one of them.
- One of who?
453
00:17:09,738 --> 00:17:11,781
A conductor of mediocrity
and conformity.
454
00:17:11,865 --> 00:17:13,283
You know, I thought
it was so cool
455
00:17:13,283 --> 00:17:14,784
that you worked in an
underprivileged school,
456
00:17:14,868 --> 00:17:16,077
but now I see that
you don't even care
457
00:17:16,161 --> 00:17:18,079
about inspiring the kids.
458
00:17:18,163 --> 00:17:20,373
You know what? I hate to say it,
459
00:17:20,457 --> 00:17:22,167
but I think you're
a conventional thinker.
460
00:17:24,586 --> 00:17:26,129
You know what?
461
00:17:26,129 --> 00:17:27,380
You can get out.
462
00:17:27,464 --> 00:17:29,758
Actually, Janine,
463
00:17:29,758 --> 00:17:30,967
I'm gonna go.
464
00:17:31,051 --> 00:17:32,886
And, by the way, I lied.
465
00:17:32,886 --> 00:17:35,263
You are swimming
in that sweater.
466
00:17:37,724 --> 00:17:38,683
Yeah, well,
467
00:17:38,767 --> 00:17:40,393
your real name is Sarah!
468
00:17:40,477 --> 00:17:42,771
I saw it in your
birth certificate collage!
469
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:44,606
Just don't.
470
00:17:44,606 --> 00:17:45,732
Did the art show start?
471
00:17:45,732 --> 00:17:46,941
Did I miss the step and repeat?
472
00:17:48,068 --> 00:17:50,570
Melissa, I had no idea
she was gonna do that.
473
00:17:50,570 --> 00:17:51,654
I am so s--
474
00:17:51,738 --> 00:17:55,325
No, don't you dare apologize.
I'm proud of you.
475
00:17:55,325 --> 00:17:57,619
You did the right thing
kicking that wannabe Zoe Kravitz
476
00:17:57,619 --> 00:17:59,454
- out of here.
- You kicked Sahar out?!
477
00:17:59,454 --> 00:18:02,290
Aw, man, Janine!
What's her handle?
478
00:18:02,374 --> 00:18:05,251
I have no idea why you were
friends with her to begin with.
479
00:18:05,335 --> 00:18:07,545
Look, I mean,
480
00:18:07,629 --> 00:18:10,965
without Sahar, college
wouldn't have been fun for me.
481
00:18:11,049 --> 00:18:13,259
She made me feel like
482
00:18:13,343 --> 00:18:16,554
I fit in somewhere being myself.
483
00:18:16,638 --> 00:18:18,765
She made being an outcast cool.
484
00:18:18,765 --> 00:18:22,560
Being a real person is
more important than being cool.
485
00:18:23,395 --> 00:18:25,021
And you're a real person.
486
00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:30,235
Who owes me 75 copies of
Peter Rabbit before next year.
487
00:18:30,235 --> 00:18:34,239
Okay, if you guys are finished
with this very special episode,
488
00:18:34,239 --> 00:18:35,740
Janine, can you shoot me
Sahar's number?
489
00:18:35,824 --> 00:18:37,242
I'm tryin' to go out
this weekend.
490
00:18:40,161 --> 00:18:42,247
Just what I need --
a man who wears used pants
491
00:18:42,247 --> 00:18:43,623
bringing me a tray of pickles.
492
00:18:43,707 --> 00:18:46,126
Devin, Jacob stayed up
all night long
493
00:18:46,126 --> 00:18:48,920
preparing this zucchini
for the children's lunches.
494
00:18:49,754 --> 00:18:51,297
We realize how difficult
495
00:18:51,381 --> 00:18:52,590
- your day must be.
- Mm.
496
00:18:52,674 --> 00:18:54,759
You work under
stressful conditions,
497
00:18:54,843 --> 00:18:57,429
and you still provide
for hundreds of kids a day.
498
00:18:57,429 --> 00:19:01,182
And I am sorry
for insulting your food.
499
00:19:01,266 --> 00:19:03,309
I am sure it's...great.
500
00:19:03,393 --> 00:19:05,937
I appreciate that.
And it is great.
501
00:19:06,021 --> 00:19:08,273
- You should try some.
- Oh, I have.
502
00:19:08,273 --> 00:19:10,066
No, not with
this new microwave we got.
503
00:19:10,150 --> 00:19:11,526
These things is piping hot.
504
00:19:11,526 --> 00:19:13,153
Go ahead. Give it a try.
505
00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:15,030
Yeah.
506
00:19:16,990 --> 00:19:18,366
Yeah? Yeah?
507
00:19:23,246 --> 00:19:25,415
Mmm. Tater tots.
508
00:19:25,415 --> 00:19:26,958
Oh, that's a chicken nugget.
509
00:19:27,042 --> 00:19:28,418
Ooh.
510
00:19:28,418 --> 00:19:30,837
Anyways, here it is,
all ready to serve.
511
00:19:30,837 --> 00:19:32,464
Oh, yep.
512
00:19:32,464 --> 00:19:34,799
Ooh.
513
00:19:34,883 --> 00:19:36,092
That's a
health-code violation.
514
00:19:36,176 --> 00:19:38,178
I can't be serving food
y'all made at home.
515
00:19:39,429 --> 00:19:41,014
Go ahead,
get some more nuggets.
516
00:19:46,728 --> 00:19:47,854
How'd you get those?
517
00:19:47,854 --> 00:19:50,982
I think the what is more
important than the how here.
518
00:19:51,066 --> 00:19:53,818
I obviously could not afford
to buy the books myself,
519
00:19:53,902 --> 00:19:55,153
so I had to get creative.
520
00:19:55,153 --> 00:19:57,322
So, what you see here
is a commentary
521
00:19:57,322 --> 00:20:00,825
on both domesticity
and capitalism.
522
00:20:00,909 --> 00:20:04,162
Uh, as well as socialism
and sexism.
523
00:20:04,162 --> 00:20:06,623
If you think about it
for a second,
524
00:20:06,623 --> 00:20:07,749
carrot.
525
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:09,751
Or not.
526
00:20:10,627 --> 00:20:12,545
It's up to the eye
of the beholder
527
00:20:12,629 --> 00:20:14,297
of the person who has the eye.
528
00:20:14,381 --> 00:20:15,924
I reached out
to some art collectors
529
00:20:15,924 --> 00:20:17,926
who notoriously
have money to burn.
530
00:20:17,926 --> 00:20:19,427
I sold the art installation
531
00:20:19,511 --> 00:20:22,430
and had enough money
to replace the books.
532
00:20:22,514 --> 00:20:24,099
Pretty cool.
533
00:20:27,185 --> 00:20:29,354
Oh, why would you
put that together?
534
00:20:31,356 --> 00:20:32,399
Power clashing.
535
00:20:33,525 --> 00:20:34,901
Okay.
536
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,365
Okay, you are gonna flip
when you see. Go.
537
00:20:42,826 --> 00:20:44,411
Ohh.
538
00:20:44,411 --> 00:20:47,038
It's breathtaking!
539
00:20:47,122 --> 00:20:49,290
It's like our own
little Pandora.
540
00:20:49,374 --> 00:20:50,583
You know how like
in Avatar when...
541
00:20:50,667 --> 00:20:51,835
No.
542
00:20:51,835 --> 00:20:53,795
It's okay. I guess
we don't have to like
543
00:20:53,795 --> 00:20:55,588
all the same things
all the time.
544
00:20:59,676 --> 00:21:01,428
- Oh.
- Oh. Uh, let's go.
545
00:21:03,179 --> 00:21:04,222
Yes!
546
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:11,938
Oh, they were
absolutely killing everything.
547
00:21:12,022 --> 00:21:14,315
I don't think a single seed
would have survived.
548
00:21:14,399 --> 00:21:16,234
I couldn't just sit there
and watch that.
549
00:21:16,234 --> 00:21:17,777
It's like my dad always said.
550
00:21:17,861 --> 00:21:20,030
"A real man doesn't ignore
the root of the problem.
551
00:21:20,030 --> 00:21:21,656
Now pick that hoe up!"
552
00:21:24,325 --> 00:21:26,578
I hate gardening so much.
553
00:21:28,747 --> 00:21:31,666
