Are you? And mind you? 20 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: These are nineteen fifties, early sixties shows, so I expect 21 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 2: most of you have never seen them, but if you 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: find them, please you'll be very happy. Anyhow, ned Hiken 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: is like it goes all over the place, and then 24 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: you don't know where it's going to end, and this 25 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 2: one went was one of those. 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I love that. It opens up with Larry 27 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: on the phone with Richard Lewis, and the first line 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: is did I do something? 29 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: Well? By the way, when my wife, my ex wife, 30 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 2: my girlfriend, or anyone says my name, I go, what 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 2: did I do? I think it's a Jewish I think 32 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: it's a Jewish men's thing. The what did I do? 33 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: I do? 34 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 3: What? 35 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: I was taken aback by and I didn't notice them 36 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 2: we're doing I'm focusing on the bigger picture. Larry does 37 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: really good phone work. He does it's not easy to 38 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: act like you're in a conversation. And that's a believable conversation. Yeah. 39 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: And one of my pet peeves. And I hate the 40 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: term pet peeves, so that should be a pet beeve? 41 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: Is it? Is? It also a fun fact? 42 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: Jeff uh No, that's an interesting fact, I think. But also, 43 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: now here's a fun fact. I will watch a show 44 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: and know how matter how I am involved in it. 45 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: When two characters are drinking coffee, if they do bad 46 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: coffee work, I'm out the minute I know there's nothing 47 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,839 Speaker 2: in their cup and they're faking coffee. I leave. That's 48 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: I swear to God. 49 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: I think that's the nature of being in the business. 50 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: I think most people don't notice those things. A lot 51 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: of continuity stuff that people don't even notice. 52 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,399 Speaker 2: Curb your enthusiasm. Has there ever been a time where 53 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: there hasn't been water or something else in your glass? Always? Yeah, 54 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 2: we never have to mind it. 55 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: No, that's a good prop person. That's a great prop person. 56 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: You know, there are so many people that go into 57 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 1: doing their job to make a show, to make a movie. 58 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: There's hundreds of people on a crew, and they are 59 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: all completely focused on what they do. 60 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 2: Well, that being said, if an actor is so focused 61 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 2: on what they do, why did I not say can 62 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: I have some water in my cup? Or be as 63 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 2: humble to say I'm not good at coffee drinking on 64 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: I need water for girth, You need girth, All right, 65 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: let's move. 66 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: But it is interesting to me when you're on a set. 67 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, Thomas, our makeup artist, all he's looking at 68 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: it is my makeup wardrobe. All they're looking at is 69 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: my wardrobe. Everybody has a very specific job. 70 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: I very much understand the two people of the three 71 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: people on a set that should be noticing everything, or 72 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: the actor because if you're so self involved, you're not 73 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: going to be present in the scene. The director obviously, 74 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: and any good. 75 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: Producer and the script person. 76 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: Well script he pays attention to what's being said or 77 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: on our show, it's a nightmare. 78 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: And if not just what's being said, but also am 79 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: I holding my arm like this in the last scene? 80 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: Or is it continuity right, which we have never been 81 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: great at on Curb And I think it's hard for 82 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: us because we improvise. 83 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: I told you that in the words of I believe 84 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: Francis Ford Coppola. I'm not sure if it's him. Continuity 85 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: is for pussy's. So if you're noticing mistakes, we're not 86 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: doing a good job. But you know, if you're noticing continuity, 87 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: whatever you're watching, isn't that good? 88 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, unless it's egregious, obviously. So we start out with 89 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: Larry's on the phone with Lewis, did I do something? 90 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: And Lewis wants to meet him in person, doesn't want 91 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: to talk about it on the phone. Lewis has an 92 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: issue and wants to meet Larry in person, and Larry's 93 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: why do we have to meet in person? But they do, 94 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: and then Cheryl gives Larry a prescription. Cheryl's scratchy, scratchy, scratchy. 95 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: She has dermatitis, and she's scratching the entire episode, and 96 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: she has a contact dermatitis, and she gives Larry a 97 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: prescription to fill for her when he goes to meet Lewis. 98 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: You know, nothing good is going to come of him 99 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: having a prescription. 100 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: Obviously, by the way, little do we know of what 101 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: that actually means. 102 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: No, that's the beauty of it. 103 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 2: But also Cheryl, she says, will you pick me up 104 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: and we'll go to the restaurant? He says, can't you 105 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: meet me there? I need you to meet me there. 106 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 2: And it's so from two standpoints. One is from Larry's 107 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 2: point of view, the Larry the character, which, by the way, 108 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 2: at the end credits, I'll say this now so I 109 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: don't forget it, says Larry David as himself, which is 110 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 2: completely wrong. It's a fictional life, Larry David. And yeah, 111 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: and we took it out. I'll see if we took 112 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: it out the second season, but I don't think it 113 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: lasted past the first season. But anyhow, he asked her 114 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: to take a cab, have the housekeeper driver, what have you? Well, 115 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: by the way, I want to bring that up later. Anyhow, 116 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: she is frustrated with him because he gives her excuse 117 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 2: it's too far to come back. Blood h blah, and 118 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: she says, okay. Now, I don't know a woman that 119 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: I've ever been with that would be okay with that. 120 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: Cheryl is a freak of nature. And by the way, 121 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: I believe her saying okay because that's her character. And 122 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: also she's not Jewish, so I believe that she should. 123 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: Be saying about Jewish women. 124 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: Jeff, I'm saying that a lot of men don't marry 125 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: Jewish women. Let's leave it at that. But I happily 126 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: married a Jewish woman and my girlfriend's Jewish, and I 127 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: am in a great deal of pain at all times. 128 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's due to them. I know it's 129 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: not due to them. 130 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: I'm by I know I have lots of it's due 131 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: to them. It's not a fact. 132 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: Oh do you all right? And the fact that you're 133 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: one of my best friends. 134 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's so funny. 135 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 2: We were my best friend that I can count on, 136 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: and you're a Jewish woman, but you're different and when 137 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 2: you give me shit, I know it's the real deal. 138 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: We're in the middle of shooting right now, season twelve, 139 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: and we were shooting with Cheryl the other day and 140 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: there was a scene where she was Larry was doing 141 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: something and she was just like okay, okay. And when 142 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: she came off the set, same set, I said to her, Shoe, 143 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: how many times have you said that responding to Larry, 144 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: like okay, okay? That exact thing that she does, She's 145 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: been doing it since season one. 146 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 2: She certainly has. 147 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: Nothing's changed. But there's a lot of things in all 148 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: of these episodes that that date that date us, right, 149 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: you know, in terms of like the episode porn O'Gill, 150 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: no nav system this one, you know, no uber. There's 151 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things like that. This is two thousand 152 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: that we shot this. So she gives him the script. 153 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: She's going to meet him at the restaurant at six o'clock, 154 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: and Larry goes to meet Lewis in Santa Monica. Okay, 155 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: were you struck by Lewis's outfit? He's got the big 156 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: pantted shoulders in his jacket, he's got the Hendrix tie. 157 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: Hold on, I agree with you. One hundred percent. But 158 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: I wasn't struck by it because I remember it so vividly. 159 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 2: We were on Santa Monica Beach on the upper part 160 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: where you walk. Yeah, and that I will say, in 161 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 2: terms of dated it looked normal to me, although that 162 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 2: look has never looked normal to me. I'm more of 163 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: a blue jeans and T shirt guy because it never 164 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: goes out of style, or a white cotton button down 165 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: shirt with jeans. You know what. 166 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: He had, the big patted shoulders jack. 167 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: See, that's what the style was then, and it was 168 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: absurd it was. 169 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: And the Hendrix tie, which is his thing. 170 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he probably owned that tie. 171 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: Probably, And then Lewis has something to tell Larry and 172 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: he's telling it to him because his shrink told him 173 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: to something bothering Lewis and. 174 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: Normal that your therapist would say, maybe you want to 175 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: express that. 176 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: And what was bothering him is that Larry never calls him. 177 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: You never call me, Okay, you never call me. 178 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: He's the initiator, is what he said. Right. Yes, so 179 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: I have some friends that I know I'm also the 180 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: initiator constantly. I love all these people. I don't believe 181 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: I have resentments from any of them. Because they're all 182 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 2: crazy successful and crazy busy. And by the way, they're 183 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: great responders. But one's a terrible responder. But the ones 184 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: I contact mostly who live here in LA. The one 185 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 2: in New York is a bad responder, but the two 186 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: in LA great responders. So the fact that they respond 187 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: with positivity and love, I'm okay with it. But I'm 188 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 2: always thinking, initiator. So I didn't remember remember this until 189 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 2: I saw it and I thought, wow, Man, if Larry 190 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: doesn't cover everything of the human condition, I don't know 191 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,599 Speaker 2: who does. I mean, that is just I loved it. Initiator. 192 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, But everything's in negotiation in life, you know, 193 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: in Larry's life, in all of our lives, whether it's 194 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: who calls who, who wants to have sex, everything, Larry. 195 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: I think it's more of a reactive interaction, meaning he 196 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 2: only initiates because he's stuck to initiate, you know, he 197 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: I guarantee Larry David has never thought with a friend 198 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: of his. Why am I always initiating? 199 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 1: Yeah? 200 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, or maybe it happened once and he noticed it 201 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: and wrote it down, you know, But he's a reactor, 202 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: and he's put in situations because he I don't remember. 203 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: I was going to say, okay, all. 204 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: Right, Well anyway, so Lewis confronts him and he says, 205 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: you never call me, and he says it's Sophia, isn't it, 206 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: because ld is not comfortable if Sophia picks up the phone. 207 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: Of course, because they had that big fight back in 208 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: episode one in the pants tent, they had a big 209 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: fight in episode one. Lewis is still seeing her, which 210 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: is amazing after all these episodes. And they decide that 211 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: Larry and Cheryl that Larry invites them to meet for dinner. 212 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: He says they can't they have something. They decide they're 213 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: going to stop there for dessert after dinner at Byzantine. 214 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: I always as I always do this, I want to 215 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 2: go back to the initiating thing. And Larry explains it 216 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 2: to your girlfriend. You know that the Richard character, not 217 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: the Richard I know in real life, but the Richard character. 218 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: Anytime Larry and he would have plans for lunch, he 219 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: probably would have wanted to bring Sophia. 220 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: So Larry, they make a plan to come over for 221 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: dessert and then a man jogs by and Lewis screams out, hey, 222 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: justin it's his friend Justin Graham's or something like that, 223 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: and he happens to be African American, and Lewis introduces 224 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: him to Larry as his dermatologist, and Larry says, doctor 225 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: Grants and my friend Larry David really, oh yeah, look 226 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: fifteen years really, you. 227 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: Know with the whole affirmative action thing. I'm sorry, I mean, 228 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: which is a joke that I still don't get. 229 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's a tough joke. It's a tough joke. 230 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: I think what he meant. 231 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: Well, maybe that was I'm sure that was done purposely. 232 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a bad joke. I think what he 233 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: was saying was, you would go to this guy knowing 234 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: that he only got into medical school because of a phone. 235 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 2: That's the implications. Boy, is that a bad joke? 236 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a bad, bad joke. And it had to 237 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: be a bad joke because of course the dermatologist justin 238 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: takes offense to it, as he should. 239 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 2: Right, because it's who would understand the joke like that, 240 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 2: Because if I'd say, I'm standing next to him, whether 241 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: in real in real life, Larry would never do something 242 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: like that, but in character, I would say to him 243 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: over and over, why would you say that, Why would 244 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: you say that? Yeah, that's insane. But after the. 245 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: Guy left, Yes, and Larry's just I was just trying 246 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: to be effable. I was just trying to be effable, 247 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: and he uses that word several times. My question that 248 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: I have is could we do this episode today? 249 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 2: Most definitely, I think today it has more resonance than 250 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 2: it did then. Oh my god, yes you could. Well, 251 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: we'll get to it, but I think without a doubt 252 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 2: you could because it's about him being well meaning but 253 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 2: ignorant in the ways of that. 254 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: And then he says one of my favorite lines, I 255 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: tend to say stupid things to black people. Larry says 256 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: that to Lewis, I tend to say stupid things to 257 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: black people, and it happens to be true. There are 258 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: many incidents coming up in many other seasons where he 259 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: tends to say stupid things to black people. 260 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll think about the our pilot Slash special. Early on, 261 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 2: a black guy walks by any nods and he says, 262 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 2: I tend to nod at black people. Black people rather 263 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 2: not that a black person would notice just some guy nodding. 264 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: Maybe he knows him, maybe he doesn't. But I think 265 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 2: the line of that scene is you sounded like Pap 266 00:12:59,160 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: you Can. 267 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: It's Jim Partner. 268 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: I never noticed it when we did it, and I 269 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 2: thought that is so classic Richard Lewis. 270 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: It's such a Lewis line, it's so succinct. And Brens 271 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: he comes up with things like that all the time. 272 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 2: For those of you listening, Pap you Can and today 273 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 2: could be comparable to Ted Cruz or someone along those lines. 274 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: You sound like Ted Cruz is Jim Partner, although it's 275 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 2: not as funny with Ted Cruz, even though you got 276 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: the k sound Pap you Can and it was perfect. 277 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: Or Sean Hannity, somebody. 278 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 2: Sean Hannity, and I don't even want to mention the 279 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 2: other guy. 280 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, we won't even mention the dis. 281 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 4: We'll be right back. Stay tuned, and we're back. 282 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: Then they're in the restaurant and Cheryl's scratching, scratching, scratching, 283 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: and obviously he didn't fill her script. We knew after 284 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: he offended the dermatologist. We knew that prescription was never 285 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: going to get filled. And again he's defending himself with saying, 286 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: I was trying to to be affable, trying to be 287 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: a fault. 288 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 2: But it was also, let's be honest here, his wife 289 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 2: has a medical condition, and he's too self involved to 290 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 2: even notice, you know, like the real Larry David, unless 291 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 2: unless there's something extraw, and he would not forget. He 292 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: would be thoughtful. If his wife said please do this 293 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: prescription for me, he might be really, you can't get 294 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: anyone else to do it. But nonetheless, if he has 295 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 2: the task, he would totally. 296 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: But then there's no story, so he doesn't know you. 297 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: And they're at the restaurant. There's a long wait for 298 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: the restaurant. 299 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: Wait, wait again, I have to go back, go, go. 300 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: What happens again? Here Cheryl's understanding. 301 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, but she's getting pissed off, Jeff, you see in 302 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: her face she's getting really annoyed us. 303 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: But she never explodes. But I'm saying, she's like, let's 304 00:14:59,400 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: you know. 305 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: Oh, but of course, you know what he wrote that 306 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: character to be the fantasy wife. That would be understanding. 307 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? 308 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean. 309 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: He wrote my character to be the shrew. 310 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: No, he gave you a premise for your character, because 311 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 2: you came up with your character, but the premise was 312 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: your behavior. But you came up with it. Same with Cheryl. 313 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 2: This show, everybody came with their own characters. Larry gave 314 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 2: everybody the premise to run with it. Now, if he 315 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 2: didn't like what you were doing, that's. 316 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: Totally still be here in season twelve. 317 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, if he didn't, but he obviously you kill 318 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: him where Cheryl I think, just played it true to herself. 319 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: But that's part of why she got the part, because 320 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: she had that steadiness. 321 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 2: No, actually it's the opposite why she got the part, 322 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 2: because I was in the casting session when she came in. 323 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: She was the only one, only one that didn't count 324 00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 2: cow to Larry. 325 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 5: She called him out on his shitef she does call 326 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 5: him on a ship. 327 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: But I know that, I know she's even. We didn't 328 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: know that yet. 329 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: Okay. 330 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: It wasn't like, oh, she's even. She was obviously really great. 331 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 2: You could see it that there was something going on 332 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: here that being said, everyone else sort of played up 333 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 2: to Larry, had fun with Larry and all the things 334 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 2: Larry did. There was something about eating a bowl of 335 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: cereal for the scenario. I don't remember what it was, 336 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 2: but she really, like really gave it right back to 337 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 2: Larry everything he said, and he would laugh constantly boom. 338 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: When she left the room, it was evident you know 339 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 2: she was going to get the part. I don't remember 340 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 2: if he said. I think she was the quickest person 341 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: he ever cast. And know that before she came in 342 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 2: we looked at fifteen to twenty actresses improvisers. 343 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: So there's a forty five minute wait for a seat 344 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: at the restaurant and LD Larry decides he's going to 345 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: shmo guy and he's the most awkward sch mirror I've 346 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: ever He folds up a twenty dollars and. 347 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 2: By the way, that is real life. I can't By 348 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 2: the way, I can't even imagine him walking up, I know, 349 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 2: and handing somebody money. 350 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 1: That's follows to a very small little thing and then 351 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: just kind of shoves it across the matrix D podium 352 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: and they get it low and behold it works, and 353 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: they get a table and Larry says to share ol, 354 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: women are attracted to criminals. Larry'ses a guy in a 355 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: wheelchair and says, how can a handicapped person use a 356 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: non motorized wheelchair? It was just like this throwaway thing. 357 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 2: Well, you know what, okay, but I have a theory 358 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 2: about it. Tell me that he's seen that situation a 359 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: dozen times before easy in his life, and he's already 360 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: thought absolutely because he always pictures himself in the situation. 361 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 2: That's where he's very empathetic. What would I do, which 362 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: is again narcissistic, but nonetheless what would is that narcissistic? 363 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 2: I don't know. Only a therapist could tell me, But 364 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: the point being is that he has probably seen that 365 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 2: a dozen times and the opportunity to put that in 366 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 2: the show is delightful. Right. 367 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: That's that was my take as well. He sees that 368 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: Ted Harbert, who's an ABC executive, sitting over, and this 369 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,199 Speaker 1: was the part that just killed me. Larry needs to 370 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: go to the bathroom, but he doesn't want to run 371 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: into Ted Harbor because he's a boring guy and he's 372 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: going to get stuck in a conversation. So he leaves 373 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: the restaurant, goes two doors down to use a bathroom 374 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: in another restaurant, in a Mexican restaurant down the block. 375 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 2: Oh, you know what, I think, most people, When I 376 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: say most people, I mean ninety nine percent of other 377 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: people would never avoid going to the bathroom because somebody 378 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 2: has is full of small talk as a matter of fact, 379 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 2: my thing so I wouldn't be stopped, would be to 380 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: go to tell him when I see him, I'll be 381 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: right back and use the restroom, come back and listen 382 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 2: to whatever the bullshit is and sit down. Larry David 383 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 2: is one of the few people to avoid that situation. 384 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 1: The way out of me this way. You know, there's 385 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: an art extricating your off from a conversation. My husband 386 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: does not have this ability. I am very good at it. 387 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: My husband has to stop and talk to the doorman. 388 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: He feels obligated in that way that Larry would. I'm 389 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: just like hi, and I keep walking, polite, nice, but 390 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: just extricate yourself. And there's nothing wrong with saying sorry, 391 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: I can't talk right now. I'm in the middle of 392 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: my having dinner with my wife. 393 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: Well, your husband is a true men. 394 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: She love that, as is Larry. But he has to 395 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: go two doors down to the bathroom. So he goes 396 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: to the Mexican restaurant and there's a woman in the 397 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: hallway when he comes out of the bathroom again, an 398 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: African American woman who was up for a job on 399 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 1: Sour Grapes as a script supervisor. And she didn't get it, 400 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: and she really berates Larry and calls him a racist 401 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: and all kinds of other things, and you know, goes 402 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: on and on about Seinfeld not having one black girlfriend 403 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 1: and there was not one black person on the show, 404 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: all of which is true, and Larry's very aware of that, 405 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: and she's accusing him of racism, and he's quite taken aback, 406 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: and he goes back back to the other restaurant two 407 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: doors down and he sits down and who walks over 408 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: Ted Harbert and starts talking boring conversation about hold on, 409 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: hold on. 410 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 2: Hold on, hold on, hold on, you have to wait on. 411 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 2: The woman. She was magnificent, terrific, the woman who was 412 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: a line producer. And she said one thing that always 413 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: made Larry laugh. At the end of her krang karrange, 414 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 2: she said, mister Larry David, good night, do whatever. But 415 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: when she said mister Larry David, not only did Larry laugh, 416 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 2: but he repeated that to himself all the rest of 417 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 2: the time we're filming. He would look at me and go, 418 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 2: mister Larry David because it struck him as so funny. 419 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 2: But she was amazing. And by the way, there are 420 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: those situations especially situations, especially now, where you don't think 421 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: of yourself as racist and you have a good heart 422 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 2: and you're unintentionally being racist, or you're insensitive to what's 423 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 2: going on in the world. World. And what he did 424 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 2: was he did a form of nepotism. He wasn't related 425 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: to this man. But if he didn't hire the man 426 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 2: for the line, producer, Cheryl, I'm not going to say 427 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: it would have been mad at him, but you would. 428 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: Well yeah, let me just say that I didn't mention 429 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: that the guy Barry who got the job was a 430 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: friend of Cheryl's. 431 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, But whenever you do nepotism, there's either resentment 432 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: from whoever they're working with. Oh I know how you 433 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 2: got this job, or I don't know. 434 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: So they go back and he gets stuck in a 435 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: boring conversation with Ted Harbert, and then they decide to 436 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: go to the drug store to get the Wait. 437 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 2: Wait, wait, wait, wait, I apologize for I don't care 438 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 2: about to run the point. Okay. The beautiful thing is 439 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 2: he went to the other. 440 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: Rest but didn't get stuck to avoid Ted Harbert. 441 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: He had a situation at the restaurant that was a 442 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 2: million times worse than anything that could have happened with 443 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: Ted Harbert and lo and behold, Ted Harbert walks up 444 00:21:58,119 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: to the tableau, so. 445 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: Larry can't win the character. 446 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 2: When it rains, it pours and yes, and by the way, 447 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: Ton Harbert did a great job. He's a real guy. Yeah, 448 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: and he did a great job. We didn't let it 449 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 2: go on too long because he asked him about the 450 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 2: golf game, which was incredibly boring and whatever, so we 451 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 2: faded out, knowing. 452 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: Folk he was aggressively boring. Yes, and they're in the 453 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: car and they're on their way to go to the 454 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: pharmacy to get the prescription filled. Yes, Larry supposedly still 455 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: has the prescription and he goes into this whole thing 456 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: in the car. Why don't we just call your doctor 457 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: because he can't call my doctor on the weekends. And 458 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: let it's a life threatening emergency. 459 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you call his machine, it'll tell you can't 460 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 3: page him. 461 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 2: That's what you called up and that's what it said. 462 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 3: That is obscene, you know, that can't disturb the doctor 463 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 3: on the weekend. Don't call the doctor, Sappler on the 464 00:22:52,160 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 3: weekend unless it's life threatening. Norman, there's somebody calling. 465 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: We're in the middle of dinner. Norman, this better be 466 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: life threatening, Norman. 467 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 4: I ought going to leave this house.

Norman imitating 473 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: the wife. You mean you can't look at the phone. 474 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 2: Norman, yeah, doing the wife. Don't call the doctor over 475 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: the weekend.

Really funny. 478 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: They get to the pharmacy, he can't find it. 479 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 2: And by the way, that's comedian thinking if I will, 480 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: if I may, and you can will just Larry. 481 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: Larry can't find the prescription at the pharmacy. So yes, 482 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: because he pulls out of his pocket a twenty all 483 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: folded up into a little, tiny little square. He realizes 484 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: he gave the matre D the prescription and the twenty 485 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: dollars bill. So they have to go back to the restaurant. 486 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: Now it's always this, it's always going back, and you know, 487 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,959 Speaker 1: and the maitre D said he threw it was very nonplused, 488 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: and he threw the prescription in the garbage, and then 489 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: they have to go back into the kitchen and go 490 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: through the filthy, disgusting garbage and there's no prescription. What 491 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: are they going to do? So then I forgot which one. Oh, oh, Cheryl, 492 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: I think comes up with what about Richard's friends the dermatologist? 493 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: And they're on their way to Richard's house anyway, maybe 494 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: the guy that Larry completely offended. They now have to 495 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: ask for a prescription because Cheryl's really really uncomfortable. So 496 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: they go to Richard's house and Sofia's on the phone, 497 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: not a cell phone, a regular phone again it's the 498 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: year two thousand, a regular phone, and Lewis fights with 499 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: Sophia to get off the phone because they need to 500 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: use the phone to call the doctor to get the prescription, 501 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: and then she hangs up, very upset because she was 502 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: on the phone with her agent. And Sophia and Larry 503 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: go through a pantomime fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, 504 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: giving each other the finger and really hating each other. 505 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 2: Okay, before we get to that, a couple of things. 506 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: When they're at the door and Richard lets them in, 507 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: she's in the background on the phone and they say 508 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 2: we need to talk about there is a problem, like 509 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 2: don't hug me, don't shake cheryld, don't hit him hand 510 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: and Richard as he's walking away, don't worry. Well, we'll 511 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 2: talk it out. 512 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 5: We'll talk it out, which is sopized. And then he 513 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 5: gets into a fight. He gets into a big fight 514 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 5: with his girlfriend because. 515 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: It's important, they explain to Richard and he knows it's important, 516 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: and she does and she's on the phone we find 517 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 2: out with her agent. But Richard at this moment has 518 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 2: dived in to help his friend. He's being the great 519 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: friend that he isn't on camera and off and he 520 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: does it. So I want to establish that as you 521 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 2: continue what you say. 522 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: Okay, So and then you know they do this big 523 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: fuck you fest Larry and Sophia, which is hilarious, right, 524 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 1: and then he calls the doctor and the doctor said, 525 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: if I can't just do it over the phone, if 526 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: they want a prescription, they have to come over to 527 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: my house. This is where they use the nave. Jeff, 528 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: I see in my notes where Larry's figures out the navigation. 529 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 2: Wait, here's here's the reason. Hold on. This is where 530 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 2: I set up the setup because what I want to 531 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 2: say is Richard. You see, Larry does this to other 532 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: people who he doesn't realize the damage that might happen 533 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 2: to the other person. So Richard gets into a fight 534 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 2: and his girlfriend Italian. See I'm always throwing in who 535 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 2: gets angry in terms of real anger Italians, Jews, etc. 536 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 2: By the way, there are exceptions, all right. Nonetheless, his 537 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 2: Italian girlfriend is furious at him for doing this. And 538 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 2: so Richard had good intentions and what he did was 539 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 2: help his friend. But the the detriment of his relationship, 540 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 2: which you know at some point will come up with Larry, 541 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: although not in necessarily. 542 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: Because always in this show, no good deed goes unpunished. 543 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: That's just the it is. 544 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 2: And Nod doesn't punish whether it's Larry or other people. 545 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: And so now they're using the navigation to get to 546 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: the doctor's office, and Larry says, yeah, I did. 547 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 2: Hear the navigation system. I figured it out. It's working. 548 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 4: It's telling us exactly how to go to the doctor's house. 549 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: Oh, I can't wait to call my parents. 550 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 2: They're gonna be so proud of me. 551 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 3: Can I tell my father I figured out that navigation system? 552 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 4: He's gonna flip his wig and he's. 553 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: Got one, Joe. Can you tell me he's gonna be 554 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 2: very proud of Larry figuring out the navigation system. Daddy, 555 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 2: I'm not so. 556 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: Stupid, which I found interesting. 557 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 2: Richard also said in the set up a great joke 558 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 2: that I'm gonna point out that he was talking about 559 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 2: the way Larry behaved with his friend, and he said, the. 560 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: Only guy I could think of his your friend from 561 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 3: dermatologist as a dermatologist. 562 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 5: Maybe if you could just call him and he could 563 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 5: call in a prescription. 564 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 3: And wow, I mean you can imagine. 565 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 4: I mean, really you were like, you know, James Olray today, 566 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 4: I know, I know. 567 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: I'll do it. 568 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: I'll do it. 569 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: Just tell him, I'll apologize. What do you James? Or 570 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: he did James Olray reference in a casual way with 571 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 2: something else, playing cards with James Ray whatever. And James 572 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 2: o'ray is the man who killed Mark. 573 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: He's very he's very big on the references Lewis and 574 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: very funny. 575 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 2: By the way, as a fan, I lived for them. 576 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. 577 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 4: Stay tuned. Okay, we're back. 578 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: So now they get to the doctor's house and. 579 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, you're skipping 580 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 2: the other thing the navigation just mentioned. But what's amazing 581 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 2: about that is it's such a big deal. And I guarantee, 582 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: and I'm pretty sure that I experienced with this with Larry. 583 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 2: He did not know how to use the navigation, and 584 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: to be honest, most people didn't. It was very confusing. 585 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 2: And so you look back at those moments and now 586 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 2: navigation is like breathing. Everybody can navigate. Sometimes it's hard 587 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 2: to do the voice version of navigation. It doesn't quite work. 588 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: But it's like I remember Uber. A friend of mine 589 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 2: told me very early on. He goes, I'm gonna turn 590 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 2: you on to something. Pick up this app and Uber, 591 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 2: And at that point Uber, nobody had a clue what 592 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: Uber was. And he goes, you can't tell anyone, it's 593 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: our secret. Well, lo and behold, it's everybody's secret now. 594 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 2: But I remember doing Uber references on stage to silence 595 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 2: no reason. 596 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: It's fascinating to watch these shows from two thousand and 597 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: see the phone attached to the wall and see that 598 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: not knowing how to use the nap and no cell phones, 599 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 1: because it all feels very contemporary to me, except for 600 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: these little pieces you know, the whole show feels very relevant, except. 601 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 2: Like I said, you said, can we do the show today? 602 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 2: And yes, you know we have to cut the navigation 603 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 2: and maybe a few more things, but nothing about race. 604 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 2: That's all beautiful. So anytime there's white ignorance and has 605 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 2: pointed out comedically and with anger, always funny. 606 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: So Larry goes to the doctor's house and he apologizes 607 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: and they were like, what did you say? What did 608 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: you say? He doesn't want to say, what is it? 609 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: Eight ten people sitting around? 610 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 2: Yes? 611 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: And Becca asked me, is the conversation with all the guests? 612 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: Was all of that improvised? I assume? 613 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 2: So it was completely improvised? Yeah, I mean there was 614 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: intention there mat Larry. You know, let Larry know and Larry, 615 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 2: but also just when you see the group, the wife 616 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 2: is actually giving them kind of a hard time. Well 617 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 2: the best laid plans blah blahlah blah. So she's not 618 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 2: making it easy and you can tell she's irritated. Larry 619 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,479 Speaker 2: walks into a room with a bunch of black people 620 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 2: having some sort of dinner party or meeting. He doesn't 621 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 2: know what, but he knows this is going to be 622 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 2: crazy awkward, Okay, keep going. 623 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: So he finally does tell them what the joke is, 624 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: and they written, hold. 625 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: Ond on here. He tells them, after a lot. 626 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: Of a lot of pleading, tell us a. 627 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: Joe, no, no, no, but we showed on camera a 628 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: lot of pleading and all of it was organic and real, 629 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 2: and go ahead. 630 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he sees before he tells the story, tries 631 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: to butter them up by this guy's in very good 632 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: shape about the dermatologist, and it talks about trying to 633 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: be too affable, and he tells them the whole story, 634 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: and they reprimand but they're very forgiving of him. I 635 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: think everybody's very accepting and forgiving, and you learned a lesson, 636 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: and all very forgiving and understand that he's trying to 637 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: be too affable. And then who walks in? 638 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 2: But wait, wait, wait here. At this point again, I said, 639 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 2: I associated with so much that nothing can ever come of. 640 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: It was the doctor that saved Larry. Larry says the joke, 641 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 2: which is done subtle and bullshit, and their reaction is 642 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 2: very negative to it until the doctor saves him. 643 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: So now they all forgive him, and they, you know, reluctantly. 644 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: But I thought they were quite forgiving, and it was 645 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: kind of a nice scene, and everybody's friends, fans, friends, 646 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: until he's about to leave. The doctor examines Sheryl. He 647 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,719 Speaker 1: gives a prescription, calls it a prescription. That's another thing 648 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: that beca pointed out that was so different that no 649 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: doctors hand you a prescription anymore. It's all done digitally. 650 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 2: You go to the oh no no, no, no no, 651 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 2: but but hold on in this circumstance because it wouldn't 652 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: be ethical, and he's there with him. Doctors do hand you, 653 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 2: They usually do it electronic or call it in you 654 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 2: or call it in now. I know that. 655 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: My point is it was just another example of how 656 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: times have changed. Is what that was then? And then 657 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: what happens then The woman who confronted him in the 658 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: bathroom just two hours earlier, let's say, saying calling him 659 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: a racist, that he didn't hire her as a script 660 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: producer or a line producer, I forget which one it was, 661 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: enters the room and starts railing against him that he's 662 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: a racist. 663 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 2: If I may, yes, if I may. I gave her 664 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 2: her opening line, which she had made up. I said, 665 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 2: when you walk out there, the first thing you're gonna 666 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 2: say when you see him, is mister Larry David. 667 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 4: Larry, mister Larry, and I'm on a roll. 668 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's how she opened and she walked out, 669 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 2: which again got Larry. He burst out laughing. We had 670 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 2: to reset and reset. He couldn't handle himself after mister 671 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 2: Larry David. But she does often not with mister Larry David. 672 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: There's things that completely tickle him. 673 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: He ruins runs all bestakes. 674 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 2: By the way, can I say something to you? He 675 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 2: really does, not your best takes because you're always great, 676 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: but he does. If you liked your take, you're fucked. 677 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: Jimsey giggles, and she starts calling him as racist, racist, ranting, ranting, 678 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: ranting about why he's a racist, and of course they 679 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: all turn on him, and he doesn't give her well. 680 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 2: By the way, what she's saying, whether Larry, that's called 681 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: the best intentions, You're screwed because everything she's saying is 682 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,280 Speaker 2: true or can appear to be true. 683 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: She says, mister Larry David, the man who refused to 684 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: hire a sister because he's a racist, and then honor 685 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: on and so Cheryl does not get the prescription. That's 686 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: the whole point is that Cheryl does not get the prescription. 687 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: Then they're in the car again and Larry is telling 688 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: she's scratching, scratching, you got to call the doctor. Of course, 689 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: she can't call the doctor because it's not life threatening. 690 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 2: To go back, I'm always going back, hold on, hold on, 691 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: I'm always going to go back. The end of that scene, 692 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 2: after she gives her speech she said, she ends it 693 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: with what she did and the other one, except she 694 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 2: says good evening. 695 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,800 Speaker 1: Good evening. 696 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 2: That was her last line, which I thought was beautiful. 697 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: She said all these angry things, then she ended up with. 698 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: Goody, very polite. 699 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 2: I love that. 700 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: Now Cheryl can't call the doctor because it's not a 701 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 1: medical emergency. It's not a life threatening emergency. And Larry 702 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: finally convinces her to call the doctor, and she calls 703 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: the doctor's pager and then their home. 704 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 2: By the way, I want to add here, still she's 705 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 2: not losing her shit with Larry. Yet he has fucked 706 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 2: it up on every occasion, and she's understanding. She's put on, 707 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 2: but she's understanding, even though we can see she's upset, 708 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: but she lets it go. In the real logical Larry 709 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 2: David way, the way he'd want. 710 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: This is who she chose to marry, and this is 711 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: what you get. 712 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 2: By the way, you're right, And later on chooses divorce. 713 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: And then they're home staring at the phone waiting for 714 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: the doctor to call, and there's the Vertigo music. It's suspense. 715 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,760 Speaker 1: It's the Vertigo music from the Hitchcock movie Vertigo. 716 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 2: Did they use Bernard Hermann or did they do like 717 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 2: a similar topably similar? 718 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: But it was very similar. It was very similar, so close. 719 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: Very Ramon, by the way, for those of you who 720 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,240 Speaker 1: don't know, is one of the greatest composers for film ever, 721 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 1: and he did a lot of Hitchcock stuff, and it 722 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: was that didn't give her that that suspenseful And the 723 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: phone rings and she hangs it up and you know, 724 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 1: it's a life threatening emergency. She could scratch yourself to death. 725 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 1: And finally the doctor calls and says something about it's 726 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: not a life threatening emergency, of course, because he's being 727 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 1: a bit of a doctor dick, but he does call 728 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: in the prescription. 729 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 2: Well, by the way, I got to say in all 730 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 2: sincerity that I personally know I always feel bad about 731 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: calling a doctor, but I don't. I've never come across 732 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 2: a doctor that has ever said, don't call me on weekends. 733 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: Neither of I. 734 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 2: They have to encourage me to call on weekends, for 735 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 2: me to call on weekends unless I, you know, have 736 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 2: an emergency. 737 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 1: We do a lot of doctor stuff on this show. 738 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: Funny doctor stuff. 739 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, but by the way, it's based on experiences. 740 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: So Larry goes to the pharmacy to pick up the prescription. 741 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 1: It's very veryvery crowded, and the pharmacist tells him there's 742 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: a forty five minute wait, and then we see Larry 743 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,919 Speaker 1: take that little folded up twenty dollar bill. Larry goes 744 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 1: to the pharmacist. It's very very crowded, and then we 745 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 1: see him take out that little, rolled up, tiny little 746 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: square of a twenty dollar bill that he never gave 747 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 1: to the matre d at the restaurant. Again, the puzzle, 748 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 1: the call back, the all fits together, and he looks 749 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: at it and we know exactly what's going to happen, 750 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 1: and you know it's not going to end well. And 751 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: what does he do with it, Jeff, He hands it. 752 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 2: To the pharmacist and the pharmacist is outraged. 753 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 1: And he says, I hear things are done just like 754 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: he said to the matre d I hear things are done. 755 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: And the pharmacist, you know, this guy was fantastic. 756 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 2: And by the way, look the indigo. The great line was, 757 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,879 Speaker 2: nobody bribes a pharmacist. 758 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 1: No one bribes a pharmacist. Do I look like I 759 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: could be bribed? No one bribes a pharmacist. He's indignant, 760 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: and Larry just SLINKs out and he's just home, walking 761 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: up the stairs, completely dejected because now he's really and 762 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 1: now I think Cheryl's going to have had enough. We 763 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,879 Speaker 1: don't see it the episode ends, but you know he's 764 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: just slinking up those stairs because this is the last 765 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: straw for her and she's been really, really patient, and 766 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: you know, she's miserable and she's scratching, and he didn't 767 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: get the fucking prescription. I would in the chef. 768 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,359 Speaker 2: That walk of him going up the stairs feeling all 769 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 2: the shit, the walk of shame. Well, the stairs of 770 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,240 Speaker 2: Hell is what I wrote down Richard lewis the stairs 771 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 2: from Hell. Anyhow, at the bottom of the stairs, I 772 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 2: think everybody gets it that you're looking at a guy 773 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 2: who's about to take a walk to hell. And by 774 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 2: the way, it worked with him going up the stairs. 775 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 2: But I always thought, I'm always thinking that way. I 776 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 2: don't like a empty water cup for people to do 777 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 2: their cup work. But also I don't like telling us 778 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: too much of the story. 779 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: So I like the walk up the stairs because I 780 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 1: felt like it was a nice button. 781 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 2: By the way, I agree with you. 782 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: So there we go. And this episode was directed by 783 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: Brian Gordon. It was the first one that he directed. 784 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: First did yeah, yeah, yes, Brian. 785 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 2: Who used to write on Fridays, so he knows Arry 786 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 2: from I'm going to say this about as lovely a 787 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: man as there ever could be. 788 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 1: Indeed, indeed, and there we. 789 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 2: Lovely a wife as ever could be. 790 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: So there you go, very dear friend of mine, And 791 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: there we have affirmative action and episode nine of season 792 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: one and we're done. 793 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 2: One that I actually when I watched it, I was 794 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 2: so pleasantly surprised and how much I loved it. And 795 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: this was also one of those episodes in and out, 796 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 2: in and out, in and out, you know, you don't 797 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 2: know where it's going, you don't know where how much 798 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 2: worse could it possibly get? And Larry will show you, I. 799 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: Think also, you know, to the point that we were 800 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: making in a few earlier episodes starting with The Wire 801 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: episode six. This is where we really see the show 802 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: has come into its own completely with beloved Ant, the Wire, 803 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: beloved Ant. 804 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 2: And it's very similar to the future of where Curve goes. 805 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: But absolutely in. 806 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 2: This season it stands out is different. 807 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: Do you think so? 808 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 2: Why because just yeah, just because the way it goes 809 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 2: in and out. None of the other episodes did this 810 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 2: up to this one. None of them.
