DAVE (2020) s02e07 Episode Script

Ad Man

1
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYS)
Yo, what's up? It's Lil
Yachty, from Atlanta, Georgia.
Um, the thing what
got me into, you know,
taking this rap thing serious was,
you know, growing up,
my mom worked two jobs,
and wanted to, you know,
live above for once,
you know, you know,
provide for my family,
so I think that's what
really drove me to,
you know, take this thing serious.
(TRILLS) You already know the vibes.
Your boy Desiigner, New York City.
And what really made me take
my career serious was, you know,
when I was 14, I got shot.
For me, I was in the streets, wilin',
doing things I wasn't
supposed to do, so,
seen a vision, and I
started following it,
and here I am today. No kizzy.
Hey. Lil Dicky. I'm from
Cheltenham, Pennsylvania,
which is the first suburb
right outside of Philadelphia.
It's, like, a stone's
throw away, honestly.
Two minute drive,
you're in in the city.
My childhood was ideal.
Like, I was very loved and respected
- by my friends and family
- How's it look?
Does he look too Jewish?
DAVE: Well, maybe I shouldn't
say "ideal" actually.
Think it's a little
late to be asking that.
GATA: Too Jewish? He don't even got
the shit on his head or nothing.
There was a lot of body trauma,
if I'm being honest with you,
a couple of procedures
I wish I could have back,
a second crack at it, but
you live and you learn,
um, as they say, and
Anyways, I went to college,
uh, University of Richmond,
and I graduated as the
marketing student of the year.
And actually, Businessweek
ranked my undergraduate program
as the number-one undergraduate
marketing program in America.
So by the transitive property,
I was incredibly well-positioned.
And I got a job at an ad agency.
And it was cool.
Like, uh, you know, but it just, like
I've always felt like I
was the one, genuinely.
So, I went for it, and here I am.
What was the question, again?
You doing commercials?
Yeah, I I have, like,
ten commercials on TV.
Brrra. Geek geek!
Yeah.
Can we actually, uh, not
put that part in the edit?
Um, who do I need to talk to about that?
Uh, I'd actually love to
Just because I'm very, like, careful
about how I do my branding and
Oh, that's great.

Hey.
Hey.
- Hey!
- Boun ♪
- It's just me.
- Oh. Hi.
Did you switch chairs with me?
Uh
- Uh
- You could interpret it that way.
- Give it back.
- Okay.
- Slugs.
- (IMITATING MIKE TYSON): My back is broken.
- Well, you know.
- Spinal.
Mike Tyson?
I have no idea what that reference is.
What you got for me?
- TD Ameritrade?
- Mm-hmm.
Sure. Let me pull up my list.
Okay, so I've got one idea.
- Just one?
- It's the best idea
probably that's ever come
out of this building, so
- Okay, let's hear it.
- Would you be interested in hearing
- an idea like that? Great.
- I would love to hear your idea.
Imagine driving down the street, right?
You look up, you see a billboard.
But there's a human
being strapped to it.
Like, actually up, strapped.
- Mm-hmm.
- And it just says. "Strapped for cash?
- TD Ameritrade."
- Mm-hmm.
It's clean, it's
simple, it's newsworthy.
I think, like, reporters would report.
It's an online brokerage firm.
They're not buying anything funny.
I don't know. I chose not
to have any inhibitions and dream big.
Like, I'm not putting any
unnecessary limitations on this.
The limitations are necessary,
or you're just wasting time.
- Okay, number two on the list.
- Mm-hmm.
If you were to hear me say,
"I'm dick-fingering a girl,"
in a song, how would you interpret that?
- That you're a loser?
- 'Cause every song's about sex.
- I've never heard such unique phrasing.
- Yeah, but no guy
has ever said, "I want
to dick-finger you."
Bingo. Exactly. Why would
That's that's first
mover advantage. Oh!
I figured out my rap name.
Oh, my God, what is it?
Well, take a moment
and really absorb this,
because you're probably gonna, like,
replay this moment a couple dozen times.
- Tell me.
- Call me
Norm Bender.
Norm Bender?
Yeah, like, my as
if my name were Norman.
- MAN: Yo, Burd.
- 'Cause I bend norms at every
- Burd.
- I'm Norm Bender.
Yo, here, here. Look.
- You done Chatroulette yet?
- Oh, yeah. Huh.
- I think I've seen this before.
- Is this is this
- This is a global
- Yeah. You, like, connect
with a bunch of different
people all over the world.
- It's, uh
- Oh!
- I Ew.
- Oh, wow.
- Uh, yeah. Sorry. Yeah.
- Guy's dick is made of meat.
- There's a lot of dicks on this.
- Hey, what do you need from us?
- Let's cream. Uh
- Hold on. Hold on.
- Uh, here we go. Here we go.
- Lower my voice.
Well, they keep nexting us,
but I'm ready to make him cream.
- Mm. Yup.
- Oh.
- Hello, sir.
- Oh, hi.
Hey, how's it going?
DAVE: Just hanging out.
Are you my father?
- MAN: Um I don't think so.
- (LAUGHTER)
- Nice.
- Ah.
- MAN: Okay.
- DAVE: That's funny.
- Hey, chubby.
- MAN: Just working from home.
- Looking for people to talk to.
- EMMA: Shit. Jeff.
(CLEARS THROAT)
DAVE: So we should
work hard at this task.
- Did he see us?
- Mm, I don't know.
- It's fine.
- I don't know. I'm not
Guys, I've done coke
with one of the partners
at the holiday party.
I'm not gonna say who, but trust me,
- we're good. It's
- I've never done coke, but
- I'm on Adderall.
- Ah, nice. Can I get some?
Can't do it. My mom made me
promise not to give any away.
Got it. Got it, got it, got it.
- Dave.
- Of course.
What about "of course"?
"TD Ameritrade. Of course."
- Of course not.
- Well
Maybe just think of
it differently. Like,
what kind of movies do you like?
Uh, Warner Brothers?
They're the most consistent.
- Never mind.
- (PHONE DINGS)
Wow! Kanye's new album just
dropped. Yeezus is here.
- Yeezus is here?
- Yeah, isn't that the best title
you've ever heard? That's
such a Kanye title. I love it.
- Yeezus.
- So arrogant and lacking self-awareness.
Very Kanye.
What on God's green earth
- are you even talking about?
- (LAUGHS)
If Kanye wasn't that way,
he would never be Kanye.
He wouldn't even be a rapper.
This is gonna hit me
at the perfect time.
Every time I listen to him, it's like
there's nothing in my way and
I can achieve all my dreams.
Aw. Is the world in your way?
You got to understand I have always felt
like I was the biggest
star on the planet.
- You?
- Yeah, me.
I used to watch The Truman Show
and think that that was me
that everyone was watching me
because I was, like, destined to provide
entertainment for everybody.
And I still feel that way,
and I'm gonna go for it fully.
I'm just waiting on the moment
for my boat to hit the wall,
like Jim Carey's did
at the end of the movie?
So you've always been delusional?
- Or I've always said
- Or
that I can live with failure,
but I can't live with what-ifs.
It must be nice to live in a world
where dreams don't have to be dreams.
Guys, seriously? How am
I still here right now
and you're playing fucking basketball?
EMMA: Sorry, Stephen. We're so sorry.
Our bad, big dog.
- (SCOFFS)
- That's Mm.
Did you just call our boss big dog?
I did, but it doesn't really matter.
In five years, he's gonna
be remembering the time
he had this conversation
with me when I was wasting
my national treasure of
a brain on TD Ameritrade.
This fucking sucks. This must be exactly
what Kanye felt like
when he worked at the Gap.
I've hit a wall. I got to go home.
You want to head out?
I think I got a little
bit more left in me,
so I'm just gonna stick around,
but I'll see you tomorrow.
All right. Good night, Slug.
- Good night. Love you.
- Love you.

You can get a haircut if that's

- Yeah.
- Oh.
I respect you.
Uh, hey, we went to University
of Richmond together,
believe it or not.
- Same year. Yeah.
- Seriously?
- Yeah.
- I don't remember you at all.
Yeah, uh, we probably had, you know,
drastically different social groups.
- I got kicked out my freshman year.
- I know.
- It was, like
- You made it through?
I did. I made it all
the way. I graduated.
- I was actually the student of my year. Uh,
- That's what's up.
but I remember when you got kicked out
because you were on the basketball team,
and it made me so upset
because the team
I, like, had such hopes for that team.
And, like, you were a
big part of that puzzle,
so when you got kicked
out, it was, like, very
uh, it was a bummer for me. Um
Obviously, I was upset for
you as a man, primarily.
Your underwear is exposed.

why don't we circle
back in the A.M. Cool?
- Yeah.
- Oh, yes, I'd love to meet Jeff.
Have you guys ever done TV?

- Not yet.
Well, hopefully you'll do
better than your Eagles did

football Giants last week.
Oh, my God. We literally
had our third-string

- So

- It's true.
- STEPHEN: Anyway, I will shoot Dave the brief,
- and you guys'll be off and running.
- Shoot it to me.
- Yeah.
- Can you CC me?
- Yeah. I can just forward it,
- Or
- whatever's clever.
- Yeah. Just forward it.
DAVE: We are gonna kill
this fuckin' Ooh, sorry.
- But we're gonna kill this thing.

You won't regret it. Thank you.
Mountain Dew. Mountain Dew. Dew, Dew.
Dew, Dew. Doo-doo.
Hey, I got a buddy who
loves shitting in the mall.
What's his favorite movie?
What?
PAUL FART: Mall Poop.
Dave, it's way too late for that.
There's people out here, by the way.
Can we, like This is a little crazy.
I thought you were a competitor.
I want to see what these doofuses got.
- See what we're up against.
- Well Mountain Dewfus.
I'm excited to get in front of Jeff.
That guy's got such a presence to him.
Well, that's what happens
when you own an ad agency.
Ooh, let me check Adrian's office
and see what they're pitching.
Why do you care so much about this?
- It's like trash digging or
- Because making commercials
is so much cooler than
dumb-ass billboards.
I've been waiting over
a year to make TV spots.
So if you could do
whatever you want in life,
you would, what, make
Super Bowl commercials?
If I could do anything,
I'd direct movies.
What? How have I never
heard this before?
Just don't feel like it's a real job.
What do you mean? It's
definitely a real job.
- Every movie you see has a director.
- I understand how it works, Dave.
It's just 99% of
directors don't make it.
Yeah, but what if you're the one
- Can you just help me?
- Don't be such a buzzkill.
This is, like, a
rebellious brand, you know.
You got to, like, unleash me here.
You'd be surprised what they're
probably capable of doing.
Please allow me to unleash my
inner Kanye on this fucking shit.
Okay.
Okay.
What? So I'd be rapping,
rapping, rapping.
Swagger, charisma,
all of that, hopefully.
Go around, I guess, over and over
until the song is done. I don't know.
But don't think all these
people will have to, like,
turn their heads to see you?
I didn't think about that.
I think you should go under the table.
It'll be so sick. Come through here.
- Like, crawl?
- Yeah, and then, like, rap here,
rap here, and then you'll
be in the middle performing.
- Crawl.
- You want me to crawl under the table in front of Jeff?
Yeah. Look, here. I'll show
you 'cause you can't see.
I'm rapping. I'm rapping. You
have no idea what I'm doing.
- And I shoot through the table like a rat.
- Yeah.
- And down.
- And I'm up here, and then there. Wow.
And then I'm here, and then
everyone's staring at me.
- Then head over here.
- Yeah. Then I could even,
- uh, high-five people if I wanted to.
- (LAUGHING): Yes.
- Is that How does it look?
- Yes. Cut.
- Cut.
- Look.
Oh, that's way sicker.
- Right?
- Yeah, I like that a lot.
And then I'll design some
awesome graphics on the TV.
- Slug?
- Yeah.
Will you direct my real
music videos when I make them
when I'm a real rapper?
Definitely, Slug.
Hey, but don't get too ex
Oh, you're giving me a hug?
- Yeah.
- Aw.
Don't get too excited, okay?
It's gonna be an all-nighter. So,
write your rap and I'll
work on the visuals.
- All-nighter?
- Yup.
I've never pulled one of those before.
- Ever?
- Ever. The latest I've ever stayed up
3:45 a.m. New York City, am I right?
Fuck. They got strip clubs out there.
- Yup.
- Got one night to write a rap.
That's fine. I thrive
in the face of pressure.
I better drink some fucking
Mountain Dew if I'm gonna
- Caffeinated. Go for it.
- The
- Oh, my God!
- (GROANS)
You're supposed to do
that with an empty can.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine. Please, I can't be touched.
MIKE: Hey, Sherry, just following
up to see if we could get that beat
for the cypher because
LD is big on prep.
It's just not something we do.
We never give it out in advance.
Yeah, I hear that, but, um,
you know, think about,
like, today, culturally.
That might be, like, a past
type of way of thinking.
You know, like, shouldn't we
be, like, uplifting everyone
and celebrating this
talent and showcase it,
not pitting everyone, uh, at odds?
Especially with, uh,
social, uh, ongoings
and, like, the, you
know, uh, like, today?
MIKE: Sherry, you know what? We
really just want to be prepared,
and it's not a competition,
so if we get the beat
early, everybody wins.
This is a competition.
That's the point of it.
Look, a lot of times, people just
use verses from unreleased songs.
Hey, you know what? That's cool,
but I don't really have any
unreleased verses, you know?
So that's just not something
I can tap into, unfortunately,
and if I could, I probably
wouldn't be, like, revealing it
for a the first time, over a
beat I never heard, to America.
You know what I mean?
- See you tomorrow, Dave.
- So if we can just talk about
(HANGS UP)
Fuck!
Great. I'm gonna be up the
entire night writing some verse
that can fit over any beat,
tempo that's ever existed.
Bro, that's what rappers do,
bro. You got it. Game six.
Seven. It's seven, Gata. Who said six?
- That's What are you talking about?
- Fuck.
Oh, nah. He closing out in six, bro.
Icons can do anything.
Jordan played baseball.
You know what I'm saying?
Bo Jackson did it all.
- You got it.
- Ants.
It's gonna work out like it always does.
You're born to do this, remember?

(HUMMING SOFTLY)
Black coffee, almond milk
for the all-night woman.
Black coffee can't have milk.
What am I adding the milk to, then?
Coffee.
It feels racial.
Want to know another fun fact?
I've never actually rapped
in front of anybody before.
- Like, ever.
- Wait. Are you nervous?
Uh, look, I don't know. Fuck.
Jeff's, like, an
intimidating guy, and, uh,
this is all coming kind of quickly,
- and I just want to make sure I'm ready
- Dave,
if you want to be a rapper,
you're gonna have to do this eventually.
Might as well pop your cherry
in front of a bunch of white
dudes who won't even know
what's cool or not.
- It's gonna be cool.
- You're gonna be fine.
- Absolutely.
- You got this.
- I got it.
- Speaking of which Stephen,
we got quite the pitch
for Mountain Dew today.
- Yes, we do.
- Oh, fuck. I'm sorry.
Um, John and Vicky
actually sent some stuff in.
Aren't they on vacation?
Yeah. Yeah, they are fuckin' rock stars.
Anyway, um, we've got
enough manpower on Dew,
so, uh, why don't you guys
get back to work on TDA?
Whoa, whoa, so we're not
doing any TV commercials?
Can we just give you the elevator pitch?
Don't even worry about it.
Just TDA, guys. Thanks.
Fuck this fucking place.
Shit.
Long night last night?
- Yeah.
- Oh, uh,
I think I just saw your
father in conference room two.
Sony's here.
Everybody's Asian.
It's crazy. (CHUCKLES)
(CHUCKLES)
- Slug?
- Mm.
Let's win the Mountain Dew pitch today.
Did you just, like, snort Adderall?
We're not even in the meeting.
So what?
Let's just fucking crash it. Who cares?
Just went in ther You
can't That's not
- That would never fly.
