1
(theme music)
(crackling fire)
(night sounds)
(Avram chuckling)
(birds chirping)
(chickens clucking)
(motor revving)
(dogs barking)
- [Woman] It's really
good you're here early.
- [Hannah] What's up?
- [Woman] Oh, she's fine.
She just needs her walk.
(dog panting)
- [Hannah] All right.
(guitar strumming)
How's your week been Pen?
- [Pen] Good.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- [Hannah] You get a chance
to play it all this week?
- A little bit.
- Nice.
You wanna try tuning
the guitar by ear today?
- [Pen] Sure.
- Okay, let's see
how we're doing.
- [Pen] Okay.
- It's been pretty humid,
so it might be wonky.
- [Pen] Yeah.
- But I'm gonna
play my low E string
and then you play yours
and try to get it to match
the frequency of mine.
Okay?
- [Pen] Okay.
(guitar strumming)
- Oh, it's pretty close.
All right.
Now just careful,
carefully listen
and make sure it's really close.
(gentle guitar music)
(people chattering)
Just got marshmallow
on my cigarette.
So, does anyone want
a special cigarette?
(children chattering)
(men chattering)
- [Man] What's up?
(gentle music)
- [Avram] Hey, you know,
I read in The Globe that,
they gave this one
star, it was really bad.
- [Hannah] Well, let's give
it a shot, see what we get.
Looks good.
Yeah, make sure they
don't rush you out, okay?
Ask about side effects.
- [Avram] Okay.
- [Hannah] Do you have
a notebook, or anything
you can write stuff down?
- [Avram] Oh yes I got this.
- [Hannah] All right.
All right.
- [Avram] You don't have to
be concerned.
- [Hannah] Okay.
You want me to come in with you?
- [Avram] It's okay.
Shouldn't take long.
- [Hannah] Okay.
I'll be here.
(water trickling)
- [Man On Radio] You know, like
getting your allowance money
and then like walking
20 minutes to the mall
and like buying a record
and if you hope to God,
it's a fucking good record,
'cause you're not gonna get
another one for three weeks.
And like, you know,
and then you go home and
you put it on the turn.
- Hey Hannah,
look at these.
- [Hannah] Oh wow.
Oh,
some good looking tomatoes.
- They're incredible.
(Hannah slurping)
- Wow.
The best fucking tomato
I've had in my life.
- Oh yeah.
- [Man on radio] There's just,
there's no gravity to it.
There's no gravity to it.
- Okay.
- [Radio] It's just literally
like, it's just, yeah.
It's awesome
experience, whatever.
It's just, you know,
it's just, yeah.
And it doesn't drive.
Doesn't drive the culture.
Fucking Thompson
Twins, fuck you man.
- What time's Paul coming?
- I think about seven.
- [Man on radio] You
know our Tears for Fears,
like Jesus Christ.
They're amazing.
- Do you need any
help with the cooking?
- [Radio] They're amazing.
- No, no, you sit
down, I got it.
I'm excited we get you
for a couple of days.
- [Paul] Yeah, it'll be
nice to be home for a bit.
- [Hannah] Yeah.
- [Paul] It's been a while.
- [Hannah] It has.
Dad's very excited.
- [Paul] You been
keeping him busy?
- Yeah, he's sitting
the table now.
- [Paul] Oh nice.
- He knows the perfect,
nice placement.
- [Paul] The perfect angles
for that.
- Yeah.
(laughing)
- No, I shit you not.
I heard uncle Jay's
show on the way in.
I'm amazed they still let
him talk on the radio.
- He makes us very proud.
I mean, those call in's he
gets are truly, truly special.
- [Paul] They're insane.
Dad, that's you that called in.
- Oh no.
- Come on, I could have swore
I heard your voice on the radio.
- It's not my thing.
It make me nervous.
People listen to that show.
- Oh, don't sell
yourself short dad.
- And absolutely nobody
listens to that show.
(birds chirping)
(chickens clucking)
(people chattering)
- Yeah, I mean, I just gotta
onboard these Mumbai guys
and then see what they say.
We've been asking for updates
for like a week, or two.
Have you heard
anything from them?
No I mean, it makes sense where
they're getting brought on,
it's just a little frustrating,
I thought we had a
good handle on it,
but just,
I don't understand
what the work of,
the flow is gonna be now,
that they're in the picture.
I mean, it's like the
time difference is
like at least 11 hours
I think, or something,
but I'm, sorry, sorry,
just gimme one sec, all right?
Hannah, hey, I'm on
the phone, all right?
- What?
- I'm on the phone.
- [Hannah] Oh, okay, all right.
Just (indistinct)
- All right?
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry, Steve.
So, what I was saying
is that I think comms
should be able to get
something out in two weeks,
regardless of what it is.
I understand it's tricky,
but that's why
they're comms people.
That's what they do.
So, I know, I know, but
listen, Mumbai's, Mumbai.
(lawn motor revving)
I understand why they're
part of the team,
but, it's just not
gonna work for me.
I think being in this
position, I'm set to fail
and Brian does this to me every.
Hey.
That was just an important call.
- Well,
it's okay.
I didn't mean to interrupt you.
- [Paul] What are you up to?
- [Hannah] I am reading a
book and taking it easy.
- [Paul] Living the dream, huh?
- [Hannah] Something like that.
(Paul chuckling)
- [Paul] Yeah.
We've just been
super busy at work.
It's like, yeah,
it's a crazy day.
- Yeah.
- A lot of meetings and things.
All right.
See ya.
We just got brought on
to help this company
with their like
green initiative.
So, been pretty busy just
getting that off the ground.
- [Avram] That's great.
- Yeah, you know it's cool.
It's nice to be working
just like wild west of
environmentalism meets,
market based solutions,
but I'm just excited
to be here right now.
I didn't think it would
happen that, as fast for me,
but here we are.
- I'm really proud of you.
- Thanks.
And I know the
company's pretty cool
and we've got like all
these creative people,
working on these
projects with us that do
the little digital mock ups
and little animations
for us that I don't know,
I can't help but think that
you would do really well
at a place like this.
- Yeah, that sounds interesting.
- Yeah, I mean, I know you're
not like super into marketing,
but there's other
departments that could fit.
So, any plans for next week?
26, the big two six, come on.
- Yeah.
Pretty exciting.
- I mean, it's a big one.
You know why, right?
- Year older, year wiser?
(chuckling)
- I mean that ends, that
small administrative downside,
getting the boot off your
parents' health insurance.
- I thought you were gonna
say something fun Paul.
- I mean, I wish I
had better news kid,
but sometimes there
are things like this,
that require a bit of a plan
and maybe even little
bit of forethought,
have you even
thought about this?
- I'm just gonna get one
of those government plans.
They seem fine.
- Government plan?
Come on, fine.
You know damn well,
they're not okay.
And I'm as liberal as they come,
(Hannah laughing)
but you and I both
know, come on,
the government should
not be involved
in those types of decisions.
- Pray tell.
- I think the bigger
issue here Hannah is that,
it's probably time for you to
start looking for a real job.
(Hannah sighing)
- You know, I work
every day, Paul.
- Sure, but that's not a job.
- I feel like that's a
strange distinction to make.
- I mean, there
really isn't Hannah,
you should probably just
trust me on that, right?
I can understand you're
working these odd jobs
here and there and you're here
to help dad and that's great,
but I can't help but
think that it's time
to get a job that's actually
integrated into the economy.
You know?
(Hannah sighing)
- No, I don't.
- Dad, come on, you know
what I'm talking about.
(Avram sighing)
- It's good to be
thinking about the future.
(night sounds)
(gentle music)
(birds chirping)
- There you go.
- Thanks.
- Coffee's good.
- Yeah, no, it is, thanks.
You know, I do think
it's a good idea Hannah.
Most people, your age are
making strides in their career.
- I mean, I think that that's
just you and your friends.
There's, a lot of
reasons I'm here.
- I get it, you do a lot for dad
and I'm just trying
to be real with you.
I think I got it, you
don't need to help.
- I can,
if you can gimme anything.
- No, no, I got it, I think.
Fine.
Grab that end.
- [Avram] Yeah.
- Ready, one, two.
- [Avram] You know
the center of gravity
would be a little better
if we took the
monitor and moved it.
- [Paul] We gonna
put it sideways?
- [Avram] Okay.
- [Paul] Let's put it
sideways.
Go that way.
Just watch (indistinct).
A little more.
Nice.
Sorry.
Here hold this.
It's fine, just leave it.
- [Avram] Okay, you sure?
I can push it down.
Just tell me how.
- You can't just
- You sure I can't help?
- [Paul] Yeah.
- Anything?
- [Paul] No, it's fine.
- [Avram] Hold something?
- That's good.
- Here.
- [Avram] Okay.
Your tires look a little low,
if you wanna-?
- They're fine.
- [Avram] Did you say
goodbye to Hannah?
- [Hannah] She was
busy when I knocked.
Just tell her goodbye
for me, all right?
- Okay.
Okay.
- [Paul] Oh, thanks.
All right.
I'll call you.
Bye dad.
- [Avram] You take care.
(motor revving)
(car beeping)
- [Paul] Jesus Christ.
(car motor revving)
(speaking in a foreign language)
- What we got down there?
How's it looking Igor?
- It's not good.
Everything is not good.
- Yeah, it hasn't
been driving so well.
- I'm surprised
it's driving at all.
Bearing is cracked.
It's extremely dangerous.
Can break at any moment.
Then, some wane break lines,
air filter need
replacement, oil change.
(speaking in a foreign language)
That kind of thing.
- Fuck.
All right, well what if we
triage a little bit here?
- Triage I dunno.
(whirring traffic)
- [Man] Yo Hannah.
Sorry, it took me a second.
- [Hannah] All good man.
- [Man] Yeah.
Were you waiting long?
The fucking popcorn machine.
It's like you gotta clean it,
so it doesn't get all gunky.
- [Hannah] Oh.
- Excited to see you
cut it up tonight.
- Oh yeah.
It's gonna be fun.
- Yeah.
- I wanted to ask you, man.
How do you like
working at the theater?
- I don't.
- Really?
- No, it's okay.
I like it a little bit,
but it pays the bills.
I mean, are you looking
to get another job?
- I might be.
I'm not sure.
- Yeah?
I mean, I'd love
to work with you
here obviously.
- [Hannah] So fun.
- Be so much fun.
I just don't think
Tom is in the position
to hire anybody anymore.
- I thought you
were the manager.
- Manager, doesn't
really mean shit.
(Hannah laughing)
- We're jamming.
(guitar gently strumming)
Oh, (indistinct)
you sound great.
(people chattering)
- [Woman] I'm sorry.
(gentle music)
(people laughing)
- [Man] Yo Han.
- [Hannah] August
man, what's up?
- [August] Happy birthday.
How you doing?
- [Hannah] I'm good.
- [August] Yeah?
- [Hannah] Good to see you.
- [August] You having
a good time?.
- I'm having a great time, man.
- I talked to Tom at
the theater again.
- [Hannah] Oh yeah?
Thanks for doing that.
- No, go from him.
- I sort of figured,
yeah.
- Yeah.
Appreciate you doing that.
- He's on some like
end of day shit,
walking around with
his hand to his head,
like, it's gonna be
the last week for us.
- [Hannah] Yikes.
(August imitating gun blast)
- Damn man, poor Tom.
- Yeah, well it's a little dark,
but I'm thinking maybe like
try the mall or something.
I saw some like help wanted
posters and shit around there.
- Yeah ,yeah I'll
go check those out.
Thank you.
- Anyway, I'm gonna
grab another beer.
You want anything?
- Sure.
Yeah, beer would
be good, thank you.
- All right sis, I'll
catch you in a second.
(people chattering)
(gentle music)
(people chattering)
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Hannah
Happy birthday to you
- [Man On Radio] All
right, all right,
that was a request
for Bob Dylan.
"Black Diamond Bay"
Strange song.
I always hear supposedly
influenced by Joseph Conrad.
Now let's take our own adventure
into the heart of
proverbial darkness,
by taking this call from
a certain special caller.
Being trying to request
a song all morning,
she's been given a chance.
All right caller,
what's on your mind?
You got a song request?
- [Man] Yeah, I got request.
- [Radio Announcer] All
right, let's hear it.
(yelling indistinctly)
No can do buddy.
All right.
Bye bye to the caller.
Better luck next time.
Coming up, we've got
"She's out all night
with other men"
by those local lads
the Spindled Cucumbers.
Race to the bottle
Race to
- [Hannah] Thanks.
- So how's the niece?
- Good, good.
You know, same old.
- How's Paul?
- Paul's good.
He's back in the area now
and it makes dad happy.
- Glad Auburn's
hanging in there.
- Yeah.
I listen to your
show this morning.
- What'd you think?
- [Hannah] You got a
pretty nasty caller there.
- That's Deacon George.
- No.
- Well, he's just
blowing off steam.
Everybody needs an outlet.
He calls in every
couple of days.
- Oh my God.
Fucking Deacon George.
No way.
- What's going on with you?
- Well,
I don't, you know,
I'm thinking about maybe
trying to consolidate
to a real job, something
a little more legit.
Might give me benefits,
health insurance,
that kind of thing.
I was wondering if
maybe you had something
available at the studio?
- Hannah I gotta cut you
off right there, man.
I'd love to hire you,
but the station have my
balls in a goddamn vice,
like ripe tomatoes fit to burst.
- Jesus uncle Jay.
- [Jay] They've been
aching since '98.
(laughing)
- Damn.
- I'm just kidding
about that last part.
But we had to fire the sweet
kid that runs the sound gear.
Now we all have to
do it ourselves.
We gotta run in, set
the levels, hit record,
run back out.
Pray to God that
it isn't peaking.
If it wasn't for me,
the radio would be dead.
- Fuck I had no idea you
guys were pulling that off
on such a shoestring budget.
- Shoestring budget,
I could hang myself with
that fucking string.
(Hannah laughing)
But then it'd just
look like I'm doing
what Deacon George
asked me to do.
- Yeah, we can't have that.
(Hannah laughing)
- Well anyway.
So what do you need
a real job for?
(whirring traffic)
(scanners beeping)
- [Woman] So you're gonna
need to go onto the website.
- [Hannah] Okay.
- [Woman] (indistinct) mainly.
- [Hannah] Okay sure,
great thank you.
Appreciate it.
(soft music)
Y'all have any like
job applications?
- [Man] No, unfortunately
we're not hiring right now.
- [Hannah] Okay.
(wind swooshing)
(traffic whirring)
(chickens clucking)
- [Man] So how's
your old man doing?
- He's okay.
He's hanging in there.
- He's a tough old bird.
- Yeah, not really,
but that's okay.
The doctor has him on
this new clinical trial.
Hopefully he'll start to see
the results from that soon.
- I told him once I told
him a thousand times,
he doesn't drink enough.
You gotta make your body an
unfit place for germs to live.
(Hannah laughing)
Never listened.
- Maybe we should
get you in there.
- I'm already there.
(Hannah laughing)
- I wanted to mention to you
that I'm looking for some work
and I might not be able to take
as many shifts in the farm.
There's no real
timeline about it
and you know, I love it here.
So, I'm gonna try to figure
out a way to make it all work
but just wanted to
give you a heads up,
not leave you high and dry.
- Work.
There's plenty of
work to do here.
- [Hannah] I just I...
- [Man] What kind of
job you looking for?
- I don't know.
Something that's a little
more, I don't know,
a little more legit.
- Legit?
(Hannah sighing)
- Well, I've been
applying to tons of stuff,
but no one's really
getting back to me.
So, at this point,
looking more, you know,
retail, fast food.
I...
(dog barking)
Uncle Jay, man,
you gotta stop playing that
fucking small dick music
on your radio show.
- [Jay] Like what?
- [Hannah] I cannot
listen to another
fucking Jeffrey Toll.
Fuck me.
(Hannah laughing)
A Steely Dan marathon.
- [Avram] Yeah but he's not
as good as Benny Goodman.
- [Jay] Dude.
- [Hannah] Right, Benny Goodman,
he doesn't have to
compensate for anything.
- [Jay] Steely Dan is secure
in my dick size music.
(Hannah laughing)
Cinderella is small dick music,
or any 80s hair band.
- [Hannah] I don't disagree
with ya, but you know,
what do you think dad?
- [Avram] I don't know,
but you know, Glen Miller,
I think he actually
perished not during flight,
but in a house of
ill refute in France.
- [Hannah] Really?
- [Avram] Yeah.
(gentle music)
- [Jay] So how are you doing?
- Ah all right.
How about you?
- I'm fine.
(Hannah laughing)
What's with these goats, huh?
- You know, goats, they're
really good climbers.
- Is that so?
- Look at their hooves.
- [Jay] Do you remember
when dad took us here?
- [Avram] I do.
- [Caitie] I just
don't understand
why you couldn't have just
asked your family to ask.
- [Paul] It's a two
block walk.
- [Caitie] No, okay
but I picked out.
- [Paul] Two blocks.
- [Caitie] I picked
out my outfit
thinking that we were gonna be
sitting in air conditioning.
- [Paul] We're gonna
be in air conditioning
in now a block and a half.
- [Caitie] Why can't
you just ask people
for help when it's appropriate?
- I'm not gonna call
my daddy for a ride,
a block and a half.
- That has nothing to do.
What?
You think that that's immature?
- [Paul] I'm 31 years old, okay?
- [Caitie] It doesn't matter.
- Dad, we gotta take
you to one of these
wine and paint nights in the
city now that we're here.
- Oh my God, yes.
Oh, they are
seriously, so much fun
and they're so up
your guys' alley.
You would love it.
- Yeah, it's perfect
for you guys.
- What is paint night?
- It's wine and paint night.
You gotta have both.
You go to the studio,
or cool new restaurant
with a bunch of your buddies
and they have this maestro,
really teach you
stroke by stroke
how to paint a real painting.
You feel so creative.
- Hannah, you know what
we're talking about, right?
- Oh yeah, sure.
- Last week we did
one where we painted
the Fenway Parks
and I actually think
they came out
incredibly professional.
- Looks like an
actual real painting.
- Well, it sounds interesting.
- Oh yeah, interesting.
It's transformative.
We should get
something like this.
- [Caitie] Yeah I would love.
- [Paul] Registry
plates were nice but,
You can't really put,
dad you can't really put.
So Hannah, how's the
job search going?
- Good.
- Yeah?
You apply to any cool places?
- Yep.
- Good going.
What type of places?
- Fast food chains,
retail associate.
You know?
- That's great.
That's a great place to start.
- Yeah, absolutely.
Seriously, there's no
shame in that whatsoever.
- Well.
- We was listening to
this awesome podcast
about this CEO who was
talking about, you know,
cleaning the fryer
two in the morning
after these like brutal days
and getting paid next
to nothing for it,
but how much that
sort of informed
his character as a businessman.
- Yeah.
- So inspiring.
There are so many stories
like that, you know,
it's like, not
just this one guy.
I was literally just
listening to another one
and it's like a female CEO.
- Wow.
- So it's that
much more relevant,
'cause F men, you know?
- We had a good run.
- So have you heard
back from anywhere yet?
- No, not yet.
- Okay so that's...
- Oh actually,
oh my God, I was at this
conference last week
and I connected with this
guy from a startup in town
and he is doing this
really interesting thing.
He's sort of looking for,
unconventional people.
He was hiring off
of, what was it?
Innovative potential.
- Oh, it's my middle name.
- Right?
Because, okay so,
they're intentionally
switching everything up.
So, they got English
majors doing coding
and coders doing the copy,
I'm gonna connect you guys.
- [Paul] 100%.
That's amazing.
- You don't to do that.
- No, no, I think she
should, that's great.
- [Avram] Iron plates and hung
'em up and then sell them.
- So, you like following
up in these places,
or what's going on?
- Yep, all the good stuff Paul.
- What does that mean,
like phone call, email?
- [Avram] Tell me, did
you hear this one before?
- You know artisanal
gift baskets,
wine and cheese
spreads, the works.
- Got it, so I think you
got this handled on it.
- [Caitie] Oh, that's a
pretty good one I think.
- [Avram] Got it?
- [Caitie] Yeah, like a raise.
- [Avram] Oh, she's good.
(train horn blaring)
- [Announcer] Train approaching.
Please remain behind.
(people chattering)
- [Hannah] Paul, I have
no idea what to say.
- [Paul] Don't worry.
- [Hannah] These people who
care about apps care about-
- [Paul] He doesn't really
care about that stuff.
You know, it's just a coffee.
Go there.
Be creative.
Talk to the guy.
See what he's about
and he'll find a place
for you on his team.
- Well, yeah, I mean,
I can't say I'm a total
expert on urban planning
or the layout in London.
- Estimate.
Do your best.
- Okay.
Yeah, if we're talking
about London proper here,
probably it's about
200 streets, right?
And each street has one hydrant,
but if you include
the greater areas,
I mean, you might be dealing
with like up to 2000 street,
I mean, it's hard to say.
Again, I don't know the area.
And then I think,
and both sides of the
streets need hydrants, right?
So, it would probably be
more like two per street,
which, and how many street?
Okay.
Yeah, I guess 4,000.
4000 would be my best bet,
but you know, it's hard to say.
- Okay.
Hannah, do you offhand know
your Myers Briggs type?
- Oh yeah.
- [Guy] INFP, or EFJ?
- I'm sorry.
I don't actually know
what you're talking about.
I thought I mixed it
up with something else.
Not sure.
- [Guy] Right.
Well, it was so
lovely to meet you.
(phone vibrating)
(people chattering)
(phone vibrating)
(train whirring)
(nature sounds)
(dog panting)
(people speaking in
a foreign language)
(motor spluttering)
- You hear?
Don't surprise, it's strange
sound to (indistinct).
- So it's good?
- It's not good, but
it work, for now.
- Okay.
- Take care of your car.
- Yeah.
- And I advise
you come back some
for make the break don't risk.
- Okay, I can do that.
- Although, I did oil change
and inspection for you.
- Oh, well how much
more is that gonna cost?
- Nothing.
- Thanks.
Here today
Funny how it
- [Avram] Can you
turn the music off?
- [Hannah] Yeah.
Is that better?
- [Avram] Yeah.
(water trickling)
(gentle music)
(Hannah sighing)
(phone ringing)
- Hello?
This is she.
Oh, yeah.
- Hannah, welcome.
- [Hannah] Hey, thank you.
- Come on down.
- [Hannah] Sure.
- So what made you apply here?
- Well, I'm really
passionate about food.
- [Man] Oh yeah?
- Yeah.
- Oh, that's great.
Yeah, we got the best food here.
- Yeah, I've had it before.
It's really great.
- No way.
Oh my God.
It's like gourmet fast
food, you know what I mean?
- Totally.
Yeah, that's a
perfect way to put it.
- [Man] Yeah, that's great.
Okay, so what's your
availability like?
- Well, I'm pretty flexible.
- Pretty flexible.
Okay.
Flexible is good.
And what about
during the weekends?
- Sure.
Yeah, I mean
occasional weekends.
Okay.
- Would be fine.
- Awesome.
And what about nights?
- Yeah, I can do some nights.
- Awesome.
Okay, we need a night
person, so that's fantastic.
- [Hannah] Oh, okay.
- Okay, great.
- [Hannah] Yeah.
- Great, all right,
well drum roll.
You're hired.
(Hannah chuckling)
- That was quick.
- Yeah, absolutely.
So we'll have you on a 30
day probationary period,
at which point we can let you go
if there's not a right
fit, things like that.
And then you're on
contract for a full year
and then you can become a
full-time store associate.
- Okay, sure.
- Pretty great, right?
- [Hannah] Yeah.
- Do you have any
questions for me?
- Do you guys have any,
do you have any benefits,
like health insurance?
- Yeah, so we just actually
renewed our contract
with Aspen Crest Medical.
It's a great healthcare plan
with a modest deductible.
- Okay.
Modest?
- Well, look, technically
management doesn't have
an obligation to cover its
employees for medical care,
but they do and
that's pretty cool.
- Yeah.
(traffic whirring)
(music playing on radio)
(radio static)
- [Radio Host] Good God.
- [Man] Aw, come on man.
What's wrong with Van Halen?
- [Man On Radio] They suck dude.
No Van Halen and
no Bon Jovi too.
- [Man On Radio] His full name
is John Francis Bon Jovi Jr.
- All right dad.
I'm gonna head to work.
- [Man On Radio] Anyhow,
looks like we've got a caller.
- [Avram] See you later.
- [Man On Radio] (indistinct)
you're on the air.
- You have a good day, okay?
- You too.
(traffic whirring)
- [Man] These are
sauces and our cheeses.
- [Hannah] All right.
Make sure everything
is got a lid.
It's all clean and wiped down.
- Seems reasonable.
- Here's our frialator.
Don't stick your hand in it.
That's our grill top.
This is our flat top.
Here's our meat drawer.
Protein drawer,
onions, mushrooms.
Basic stuff.
- Okay.
(water whooshing)
(night sounds)
- [Avram] Hannah?
- [Hannah] Hey dad.
Didn't mean to wake you up.
- [Avram] Yeah hi, I
must have dozed off.
- Oh, well how could you,
with these invigorating
reruns playing?
- [Avram] Ah, they're classics.
- That's right.
They're the gifts
that keep on giving.
(Hannah sighing)
How was your day?
- It was all right.
I didn't do much.
How about you?
- It was pretty good.
You know, sold some
burgers, sold some fries.
I think pretty soon I'll
be running the whole place.
(Hannah sighing)
Well, dad, I think it's
time for you to go to bed.
It's awfully late.
- [Avram] Yeah.
- [Hannah] We got a big day of
Twilight Zone
marathons tomorrow.
- [Avram] Oh yeah.
(Hannah chuckling)
- [Man] Nope, that's it.
Thank you.
- Look at those awesome hands.
Just drop 'em in and
just let 'em sit there.
Those will take four minutes.
That's fine.
- [Hannah] Beautiful.
- [Man] Now I'm gonna
show you the burger.
- [Hannah] Sure.
- No, I know you did.
I know you did.
I just like literally
like (indistinct)
- [Man] Founder, part of
the blade right down here.
You keep that on the board
and you rock.
- [Man 2] Hey baby.
No, yeah, no, I'll
be getting off soon.
Okay, what'd you
wanna do tonight?
Did you eat already?
Well, we could get
burgers in that one place.
Yeah the new,
what?
(night sounds)
(children chattering)
- [Cook] We can reuse these.
Good.
- [Man On Radio] It is 11:55 PM
and we are still going strong
over here on Main Street,
broadcasting live all day and
all night for your pleasure.
Looks like we got a caller.
Local area code caller.
What's on your mind?
- [Man] First time, caller.
Long time listener.
- [Man On Radio]
Great, good to hear.
Thanks for calling.
What's on your mind old timer?
- [Man] Well, you know, I
can't sleep just laying in bed.
Just thinking of
(radio static)
oh shit.
- [Man On Radio] You're
breaking up there, buddy.
I can't hear you.
- [Man] Just trying to
remember something about,
well, something about
how the next time,
will be your time,
along those lines.
- [Man On Radio] Yeah, yeah,
"The next time
might be your time".
I know that song,
it's a great tune.
- [Man] It's a nice idea, right?
- [Man On Radio] Sure, the
next time might be your time.
You still here?
- [Man] Yeah, I don't know.
Just feeling kind
of down and out.
- [Man On Radio] Sure.
- [Man] And I know, you know,
I know I ain't got
it so bad, but...
- [Man On Radio] Talk to me.
What are you feeling?
- [Man] Well, it's nothing,
but if you could
play the song for me.
- [Man On Radio] I'm afraid
we don't have it my friend,
I can try and sing it for you,
or give you my interpretation
or play something else.
- [Man] Well, that's too bad.
(dog barking in the distance)
- [Man On Radio]
You still with us?
- [Man] Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you know, maybe the next
time will be my time, huh?
- [Man On Radio] Sure, brother.
Take care man and...
- [Man] Yeah.
- [Man On Radio] You can
call in again, right?
- [Man] Yeah, I will.
Thanks.
(night sounds)
(phone vibrating)
- All Robbie, what's up?
- [Robbie] What do you
got going on tonight?
- Work again.
- [Robbie] Fuck.
We're gonna be hanging out
in the back of Tom's house.
We got a little bonfire going
on in the woods, or something.
Give a buzz if you're getting
out at any time early.
- Fuck.
I hope I can make it.
It sounds fun.
- [Robbie] Awesome, I'd
love to see you boss.
(people chattering)
- [Man] Yeah you know.
Just a second.
Hey Sullivan, make sure
that they're medium rare.
- [Man On TV] Like over there
and sit down and breathe
through your nose
and let me read my magazine.
- [Man] When the bus comes,
there'll be a loud
sound of an engine.
Door open.
People will come in here,
then you'll know
the bus is here.
(birds chirping)
(gentle music)
- [Avram] What the hell?
- [Man] Hey asshole.
Yeah you, what the
fuck are you doing?
You can't just walk onto
a fucking golf course.
- All right.
- [Man] Get the fuck off.
Are you a member?
You don't look like a member.
Get the fuck off
private property.
That's what this is,
private fucking property.
(Avram panting)
- Greg.
- [Greg] Yes?
- Can you hand me a spoon?
Did you see Nicky
came in earlier?
Yeah.
So fucking hot.
(food sizzling)
Yeah.
I fucked her.
- Beautiful.
- Yeah, nah but you
know, I could have, like,
I saw her at trivia
night over by McMorgan's
and she gave me
the look, you know?
Dude, you just know.
- [Hannah] Hey, what's up Greg?
- [Greg] Yo.
- How long you been
working here man?
- [Greg] A few years now.
- [Hannah] Wow, damn.
- Yeah, it sucks.
But I'm signing up
for night school.
- [Hannah] Oh cool.
What are you studying?
- I think programming.
- [Hannah] Oh that shit's hard.
- Yeah, it's where the money is.
I'm actually pretty
good at like,
math and numbers and
coding and logic shit.
- I totally fucking failed all
those classes in high school.
- Yeah, no, yeah me too.
You know?
But that doesn't mean
anything, you know?
It's the teachers,
they weren't really
teaching it the right way.
I mean, do you go to college?
- No, I was really only
like good at English
and just didn't feel
like it made sense
to go into debt for like
a fucking lit degree.
You know what I mean?
It's not really practical.
- Yeah.
- [Avram] Oh, Hannah.
- [Hannah] Hey dad.
- [Avram] Glad to see you.
Twilight Zone marathon
in five minutes.
- Yeah, I'm sorry.
I don't think I got
it in me tonight.
- Oh, that's okay.
But I'm glad to see you
and I could use some help.
- What's going on?
Oh, sure.
There you go.
Just take it out of that.
- [Avram] Thanks.
- [Hannah] Yeah.
You know what dad,
that looks pretty good.
Why don't you make me one
and I'll go shower
and then come down
and meet you for
an episode, or two.
- That'd be nice.
- [Man] Well, shall we run
through it again, miss?
- [Woman] Oh no, thank you.
I was just noticing it,
it isn't very
much, but that bag.
- [Man] What about it?
- [Woman] Well,
it's just like it.
(birds chirping)
- Yo Han.
They had a pretty good
time the other night,
everybody hanging out before,
Connor and Hunter got all
kinds of fucking rocked
and one of them fell
and slid on the ground.
Cut up their hands
like stigmata.
(Hannah laughing)
- Hell, now I'm really
sad I missed that.
- Yeah.
They got through a
pretty heated one,
fighting each other yeah.
Christina was asking about
you too a little bit.
- Yeah, I probably should
have taken a night off
and gone and met up with
her before she goes back.
But,
what's the fucking
point, you know?
- Sure, I mean,
I don't know.
People have a way of coming
back together surely.
- Yeah.
- [Man] I wouldn't
worry about it.
- Yeah, no.
I mean, it's nice
to see you now.
- Always good seeing you sis.
(sizzling grill)
- So,
how have you been?
- I'm pretty good, you know?
Can't complain.
How about you?
- Well, I wanted...
- You were saying.
Have you been watching
any good TV lately?
We've been watching
"Edge of Oblivion".
You seen that?
- No, never heard of it.
- No?
Good show it's on HBO.
It's pretty good.
It's like, you know, dark
and tries to be smart and-
- HBO?
- Yeah.
You've got HBO.
- Oh.
All right.
I'll have to check it out.
- Yeah.
We've been binging
out like crazy lately.
- Oh that's well,
the dark show that I watch,
is Twilight zone.
- [Paul] Still?
- I've only binge ginger snaps,
but I don't know that
you can binge TV.
It's not edible.
- Yeah, it's like
a metaphor though.
Like, you're not, I'm
not eating the TV.
I'm just watching it
a lot of it at once.
But I don't know, it's good.
- Greg, a customer
needs you over there.
- [Man] Hey what's the hold up?
- [Hannah] Okay.
- [Ma] Oh my God.
- [Paul] You seen the Regal?
- No.
Interesting.
Interesting.
- Yeah, they put the
modern spin on it.
So, it's a little
more contemporary,
less Cold War, more
iPhones, stuff like that.
- Yeah, but history
repeats itself.
- That's not true.
There's never been
an iPhone before.
But, I don't know,
you might like it.
It's funny.
But I mean, yeah, I don't
know, Caitie and I like it.
Sorry one sec.
- Oh, I know.
It's a business.
- What time does
Hannah get home?
- I don't actually know.
I think it's gonna
be a while though.
- Good, all right.
(gentle music)
- [Woman] All right, keep it up.
- [Man] Okay, thanks.
- [Man 2] Okay.
(traffic whirring)
(men chattering)
- [Man] Oh yeah.
I just think Burlington
could do better.
I don't know.
Come and see
officer at the back.
(people chattering)
It is.
Everything sucks.
(people chattering)
(gentle music)
(Hannah sighing)
- [Hannah] What?
- Hey, morning.
- Hey Paul.
How's it going?
- What's going on?
I made us breakfast.
Hope you're hungry.
- Yeah, thank you.
- How you feeling?
- I'm tired.
- Yeah.
There's coffee, let
me get you some.
- [Hannah] Thanks.
- You know, I took
a half day today
and I'm off work.
So, if you're interested,
you wanna go for like a
bike ride, or something?
Get outside.
Stretch the legs.
- Yeah, that sounds nice.
- [Paul] Yeah?
- Thanks.
- Come on, dig in,
what do you want?
Sausages?
- Sure, yeah.
- You got orange juice too?
- Yeah.
- [Paul] There you go.
- [Hannah] I like
your outfit, man.
Really lets it all hang out.
- [Paul] You know?
Makes a little more sense when
you're on like a
carbon bike but,
(Hannah laughing)
dad's old beat up
old piece of crap
like (indistinct).
- [Hannah] Where
do you wanna go?
- [Paul] Maybe the reservoir.
You got it in you?
- [Hannah] Yeah,
that sounds good.
- [Paul] Cool, let's do it.
- [Hannah] Are you gonna
pop a wheelie for me now?
Oh oh.
- [Paul] Nope.
- [Hannah] Yeah.
(Hannah and Paul laughing)
What was that one called?
Wow, yeah there we go.
- [Paul] It's a great way
to like pull a hamstring.
- [Hannah] Yeah.
(Hannah laughing)
(birds squawking)
- [Paul] So you getting
along with this manager,
at the job of yours?
- Yeah, I mean, he's a deadbeat,
but we get along just fine.
- Cars he drives?
Does he have kids, a house?
What's his deal?
- No idea.
- I always look at the cars
that the guys I'm
working for have,
tells you about your
own future there.
But,
does he like his job?
- I mean, he doesn't do much.
So, it's sweet for him.
- Do you like your job?
- I'm thinking about quitting.
(Paul sighing)
- I mean, you have to prioritize
your mental health, of course.
So that's like
first and foremost.
So, if you're not
happy there, I get it.
But no one's happy at a job.
- Well, I really
love the farm so...
- And like, I'm sure the farm
will be happy to have you.
You're a good worker,
but you can't just go back
to this ignorance is bliss,
kumbaya, let me pick a
cucumber once a day type job.
That might be fun now.
Talk to the old hippies that
have been there for 70 years.
Their back hurts.
They got no savings.
(Hannah sighing)
Their kids pay
their dental bills.
You know what,
actually, I love that.
Fuck that job.
Let's get you outta there
as soon as we can, right?
And I think this is
what we're gonna do.
I'm gonna talk to Caitie.
She'll talk to Simon.
I heard the first interview
didn't go so well.
So, maybe we just
like prep together
and I can run some
questions by you
and so you can sort
of practice a bit.
We'll set up something.
I know she's got a
meeting there this week
and she could literally
walk you into this thing.
Tee it up for you.
It's literally a
no lose situation.
Okay?
Wednesday, I think at noon.
- Yeah, fine.
- Okay.
All right.
Amazing,
amazing, Wednesday.
Cool, see it wasn't
wasn't that bad right?
Come on.
(Paul chuckling)
It doesn't have
to be like a fight
every time we talk about work,
it can be good.
(Paul sighing)
You know, there's
other stuff in life
that I would love to
talk to you about.
Our new place.
We've got a second
bedroom that like,
we would love to have you
and you can visit whenever
and if this new job
doesn't pay great,
just scratch with us.
It'd be fucking better
than staying with dad.
You can live a
life a little bit.
I don't know, would you
want to come into the city?
Would you wanna spend
time with me and Caitie?
We would love to meet, any
partner you might have.
I feel like, I'm the one
always trying to talk to you
and you're family.
(whirring traffic)
(people chattering)
(train honking)
(train rattling)
(train rattling)
- [Hannah] Hey dad.
- Hey.
How you doing?
- I'm okay.
How are you doing dad?
- I'm not great.
(Hannah sighing)
- Well let me see,
what can we do for you here?
You wanna go get some
ice cream, or something?
- Yeah,
that'd be great.
(whirring traffic)
(night sounds)
Oh, fuck my fucking life.
(Russian anthem music)
- [Ice Cream Shop owner]
To all our loyal patrons
after 90 years of
dedicated service,
we regretfully must
close our doors
to the many family and friends,
who have joined us
over the decades,
on our fragrant green pastures.
As we shutter these
windows stands,
our hearts are heavy
and our cones empty.
This Creamery has been
in the Bayarsky family
for generations.
It has been our honor
to provide the community
with endless hours of good
times and sweet creams.
While our humble
parlor must close,
we believe that cream
is universal and eternal
and that the milk
enacts us of freedom,
continue to flow forth,
as long as there is
solidarity and affection
among all those who will
seek, enjoying them.
With love Dimitry
and Joanna Bayarsky.
- What a loss.
- [Narrator] All righty folks,
that was Vandyke Parks
with White Chrysanthemums.
Coming up, take a deep dive
into the edge of
tonight's the night.
This is seriously
one of the best
fucking albums of all time.
(night sounds)
What?
Well, what can be done anyway?
Anyhow, it looks like
we've got a caller,
seven, eight, four, here you go.
You're on the air.
What's on your mind pal?
- [Man] Hey, can you hear me?
- [Announcer] Loud and clear.
Actually you're coming
in a little hot.
You mind moving the
phone back a bit?
- [Man] Sorry about that.
- [Announcer] Perfect my friend.
What's on your mind?
- [Man] I just got a
quick question for you.
- [Announcer] Can't
wait to hear it, buddy.
What do you wanna know?
- [Avram] You know,
uncle Jay ran for mayor.
- [Hannah] No way,
I didn't know that.
- 1978.
- [Hannah] Wow.
(Hannah laughing)
They can't have
gone well for him.
- Yeah, he ran as a Leninist.
Got 2% of the vote and
a whole lot of people
were arrested for
public nuisance.
(Hannah laughing)
- Stand corrected then,
that did go pretty well.
- [Avram] You know.
- [Announcer] Prioritize
what you emphasize.
- I sort of feel
bad about uncle Jay.
- [Announcer] You care
about the heart choices man.
The thing is call yourself
anything you like.
- I always felt I
could have done more.
- [Announcer] To a large degree,
emphasize what you do.
- [Hannah] Like what?
- [Announcer] You care
about choices man.
- I don't know.
- [Announcer] The thing is you
can call yourself anything.
- I was a lot older.
- [Announcer] All right, Tom.
- I wasn't around
when he was a kid.
I wasn't there to guide him.
- [Man] Got so little
time in life, you know?
You can only do so much.
- I don't think you have
to worry about that dad.
- [Announcer] What you
prioritize, what you....
- Think uncle Jay's just fine.
- [Announcer] And what you
say, what you care about.
The hard choices.
- Yeah.
- [Announcer] And the
thing is you call yourself
anything you like, but what
you choose to emphasize is
to a large degree who you are.
You know what I mean?
- [Man] Sure, yeah.
- [Announcer] Well
folks, it's 11:30 p.m
on this beautiful Tuesday.
Hope you're all having
a lovely summer night
and we've got some local music
coming up to take us out.
(gentle banjo playing)
Don't forget folks.
Everything comes back.
Including this show.
I'll see you all soon.
(gentle music)
(flames crackling)
(night sounds)
