Speaker 1: Hey, listeners, it's James Parker. Can you keep a secret?
Speaker 1: The next episode of Daughters of d C is up next,
Speaker 1: But first a quick word from our sponsor, iin Horn's
Speaker 1: Epic Productions, and I heard radio present Daughters of DC
Speaker 1: breaking news. Just in Judge Crawford read will be the
Speaker 1: President's nominee for the Supreme Court. Join me, Patricia Withers
Speaker 1: as we dive deep into Judge Reid's record and ask
Speaker 1: is this man a barely concealed segregationist or a crusader
Speaker 1: for religious liberty? Tonight on the blame game. Congratulations, Dad,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be on the Supreme Court. Thanks son. Now,
Speaker 1: if you could refrain from calling the daughter of a
Speaker 1: senator a slut in public, this could go over smoothly.
Speaker 1: She was accusing you care what she was doing. I
Speaker 1: do not even care if she actually is a slut.
Speaker 1: I'm about to secure a lifelong appointment. If you watch
Speaker 1: your messes cleaned up, you better fall in line. Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Now smile, son, everyone is watching me. It's no secret
Speaker 1: that in Washington, d C. Corruption is everywhere. You could
Speaker 1: say it's gone viral. That's why my friends and I
Speaker 1: decided to take on the system from the inside. I'm James,
Speaker 1: I'm Peyton, I'm Celia, I'm Natalie, and we're the daughters
Speaker 1: of DC. I can't believe it. It seems like Mom
Speaker 1: couldn't either. She bolted as soon as I told her
Speaker 1: the news. Now the daughters are trying to strategize, but
Speaker 1: it's also overwhelming. Why is it always the worst people
Speaker 1: who rise to the top? And what can we even
Speaker 1: do about it? Can we just staying here the rest
Speaker 1: of the night might be the easiest way to avoid
Speaker 1: my parents? What's going on with him? Celia? Are you
Speaker 1: really going to ignore them all night? You aren't acting
Speaker 1: like the independent adult you say you are. You don't
Speaker 1: get it. Your dad is so open with you, even
Speaker 1: when you do something wrong. He tells you why he's disappointed.
Speaker 1: Not all the time. Well, my parents are different. When
Speaker 1: they feel slighted, they don't tell me, They show me.
Speaker 1: One second. You've been sitting on a landmine, baby hacker.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? And you didn't tell me? Not
Speaker 1: very courteous? Haven't died in an exemplary instructor? What land mine? Oh?
Speaker 1: I see? Your naive mind could not comprehend the magnitude
Speaker 1: of your discovery. So focused on the forest, you missed
Speaker 1: the trees my discovery. Can you just tell me what's
Speaker 1: going on? And however will you learn? Perhaps I may
Speaker 1: endeavor to utilize your work to my ends. Thank you,
Speaker 1: baby Anchor. I'm much obliged. Wait, Blacksmith, whoa James? You
Speaker 1: look like someone just told you all lives matter? Are
Speaker 1: you okay? Yeah? I think I just need to go
Speaker 1: find someone who this guy on? Um Adrian? Adrian from
Speaker 1: the lacrosse Tank. Hold on, James Parker, are you too
Speaker 1: a thing as well as everything? No? Just friends, but seriously, guys,
Speaker 1: I have to go. Senator and Mrs Blackburn, thank you
Speaker 1: for your very generous donation to the college. One for
Speaker 1: the boss given it is just in our d n X. Speaker, Parker,
Speaker 1: he who is greedy for gain troubles his own house proverbs,
Speaker 1: But he who hates bribes will live. I'm sure you
Speaker 1: heard the news about Judge Read. The nomination is well earned,
Speaker 1: if not a little surprising. Those Reads have a way
Speaker 1: of getting what they want, even if it seems impossible. Well,
Speaker 1: you don't sound very happy about the news, Speaker. As
Speaker 1: a Democrat, a justice with Reid's history isn't ideal, but
Speaker 1: a justice with no political backbone and a thirst for
Speaker 1: power is chilling. Then we're in agreement. On the bright side,
Speaker 1: Look how our children have grown. James looks lovely tonight,
Speaker 1: even if she seems to be speedwalking. James, what are
Speaker 1: you sorry? In a hurry? Adrian James? When a dance again? No?
Speaker 1: I mean sure, but something's up? What's going on? Locksmith?
Speaker 1: He just told me I found something, something big, and
Speaker 1: he's going to use it. But I have no idea
Speaker 1: what he's talking about. What could it be that the thing?
Speaker 1: I haven't found anything on Tanner. I've spent weeks looking.
Speaker 1: We even broke into his phone. You know, we saw
Speaker 1: her ab shots. No that's not all. We saw the
Speaker 1: forest for the trees. The spywear on Tanner's phone was
Speaker 1: installed by his dad. Yeah, it could have created a
Speaker 1: portal between their phones, a portal that goes two ways,
Speaker 1: so we can't access to Judge Reid's phone. I wasn't
Speaker 1: even thinking about it, because all we've cared about his Tanner.
Speaker 1: But Locksmith does, and like you said, he's majorly shady.
Speaker 1: What do we do? Could Locksman tell the fads we
Speaker 1: put spywer on Tanner's phone? Or do we go to
Speaker 1: the FEDS first? We don't have to tell Judge Read
Speaker 1: do we speaking of? Where is Judge Read? All bow
Speaker 1: the meeting halls, all bowls to the meeting hall? Do
Speaker 1: you need to Yeah? I probably should. You should too,
Speaker 1: your mom's speech is coming up. Yeah, but Locksmith also
Speaker 1: told me to use tonight to find information. I thought
Speaker 1: he meant about Tanner, But after all this phone stuff,
Speaker 1: I wonder if he meant Judge Reid. Maybe. But that's
Speaker 1: the thing. Everyone's about to go. Watch them crown, Mr Botillion.
Speaker 1: If Judge Reid isn't here, it's because no one's going
Speaker 1: to notice he's gone. Exactly. I have to find him.
Speaker 1: Locksmith's motives aside, I have to figure out what's going on. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's get to it and all four of few words
Speaker 1: from the Chair of our organization, followed by the coronation
Speaker 1: of Mr Boltill introducing Speaker of the House Angela pardon,
Speaker 1: thank you so much to everyone who came out to
Speaker 1: support the fiftie class of the District of Columbia. Bossa.
Speaker 1: The tradition of ushering in a new class of young
Speaker 1: black men into adulthood is one that I hold very
Speaker 1: dear to my heart. My husband was an alumnus of
Speaker 1: the class, and now my son will be an alumnus
Speaker 1: of this one. This display of pride and community is
Speaker 1: one that I have worked hard to maintain in my
Speaker 1: political career. But politics aside, this is very personal to me.
Speaker 1: I am so proud of every young person who participated tonight,
Speaker 1: But I do have to say a special word to
Speaker 1: my son, Cole. Cole Parker, you are such a bright light.
Speaker 1: Watching you and your sister mature has been the highlight
Speaker 1: of my life. I only wish that your father could
Speaker 1: see you both now. He would have loved to share
Speaker 1: this tradition with you. If I was a probably corrupt
Speaker 1: is definitely a moral judge, only attending an event to
Speaker 1: better my standing with the black community. Where would I
Speaker 1: go to do my super evil dealings. The smoking lounge.
Speaker 1: That's where the boats hang out before our entrance. Obviously
Speaker 1: you can't smoke there anymore, but it's got mad old timy,
Speaker 1: macho vibes, you know. Lead the way. Okay, it's right
Speaker 1: in there. I think I can hear people. Let me
Speaker 1: see if I can crack the door a little so
Speaker 1: we can listen. I have all right, secure denomination. A
Speaker 1: nomination is not an appointment. Oh my god, that's Celia's dad.
Speaker 1: It's only a technicality at this point. The political assassins
Speaker 1: don't pounce when you have no value. They save their
Speaker 1: ammunition for when the targets on your back, as it
Speaker 1: might be after receiving a nomination. Oh I'm saying is
Speaker 1: if you want a justice who will continue to play
Speaker 1: a long you need to level up your game. We
Speaker 1: have supported you at great personal cost through every grave
Speaker 1: mistake that you've made, even when they want did you
Speaker 1: cut loose? They? Who is they? No idea time? I
Speaker 1: delivered the verdicts. You are asking for a lot, and
Speaker 1: I'm worth every red cent. But with that, who's there,
Speaker 1: white box, Mpinia, what are you saying? I hold the detonator,
Speaker 1: beware of shrapnel. That doesn't sound good. The Mr. Votelian
Speaker 1: Award goes to the bow who has demonstrated leadership across
Speaker 1: all the traits we honor tonight. Academics, community service and athletics. Tonight,
Speaker 1: Hyllarie is Cole Parker. Oh, con come out up here,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I am so honored to be
Speaker 1: named the fiftieth annual Mr Bowtillion. Thank you, Mom for
Speaker 1: that beautiful speech. Every day I am inspired, um um
Speaker 1: by your dedication to both your job as Speaker of
Speaker 1: the House and as your job as a mother. I'd
Speaker 1: also like to thank my twin sister James for always
Speaker 1: being right by my smination disgrace. What's happening? Mom? Do
Speaker 1: I keep going cold? Honey? I'm so sorry. The timing
Speaker 1: is terrible, but Judge Reid got hacked and they just
Speaker 1: released everything. Hey, d O d C fans stay tuned.
Speaker 1: More Daughters of d C is up next, but first
Speaker 1: a quick word from our sponsor. Hey, listeners, this is
Speaker 1: James Parker taking a stand and can be scary, but
Speaker 1: my friends and I have your back. Looking for ways
Speaker 1: to become more informed and take action. Head to Daughters
Speaker 1: of DC dot com for resources to get started. What's
Speaker 1: going on? You haven't heard my botillion turned into an
Speaker 1: expose on Judge read so much from my speech? Oh?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? Cool? Where have you been? At least he's sweating.
Speaker 1: I still can't believe Mom invited him. My lord buck,
Speaker 1: hang on there, we're friends. You know taking can handle this,
Speaker 1: can throw this sure, Crawford, Sure, I uh see the
Speaker 1: missus is calling me good night. Hold on a minute,
Speaker 1: dang it, Mr Liu'm leaving so soon. We've got to strategize.
Speaker 1: Only a technicality I believe were your words. We will
Speaker 1: see Dan. I gotta get out of here, leaving so soon, Judge, y,
Speaker 1: I left something in my car. Oh Crawford, that's just
Speaker 1: a good liar anymore, are you? This is very inflammatory
Speaker 1: language from a man who claimed he wanted to mend
Speaker 1: his relationship with the black community. I never said that word.
Speaker 1: That's about the only word you didn't say, and you
Speaker 1: tried to threaten me, which wrestman Rosenberg. There's no reason
Speaker 1: to over exert ourselves. The proof is in the pudding.
Speaker 1: That is no proof, and there is no pudding. These
Speaker 1: alleged records have clearly been photo shocked. My team will
Speaker 1: be releasing a statement soon. Good luck with that. Good night, Crawford.
Speaker 1: Not an excellent time for a security breach. Judge, you
Speaker 1: fail to inform me of all your weak points and
Speaker 1: these other consequences. Lacksmith, you sort you're supposed to stop
Speaker 1: the it's like this from the happening. What use are
Speaker 1: you with ironder? Brook like a dang fool. Do not
Speaker 1: confuse our relationship. Judge, we are colleagues. I am not
Speaker 1: at your service, and we both know this could have
Speaker 1: been worse, much worse. Kidding my few joys on the line.
Speaker 1: You have no pimmon your faith just yet, Judge, I'm
Speaker 1: already locating the culprit. Hey, Harry, what a disaster. My
Speaker 1: son's never going to speak to me again. I thought
Speaker 1: Natalie's speech was going to be the worst moment. Who's wrong.
Speaker 1: At least we can drink to Read getting what he deserves.
Speaker 1: The president has to drop him now wine beer. Oh no, thanks, Angela.
Speaker 1: I'm still sick to my stomach. And I suppose it's
Speaker 1: possible for Read to turn this around. What do you
Speaker 1: think about moral relativism? My husband used to tell the
Speaker 1: kids that truth is not always easy, but it's always right.
Speaker 1: I had to tell him to stop saying that, because
Speaker 1: right is a direction, it isn't a moral high ground.
Speaker 1: I paid a proxy to take Natalie's say t s
Speaker 1: for her. Oh my oh, and now she knows, and
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Read knows this is something that could
Speaker 1: ruin my career. I spent all these years preaching about
Speaker 1: political transparency and now Read knows how. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but he came over to me before all the Michigans
Speaker 1: just now, all smug, alluding to some great sacrifice I
Speaker 1: made from my daughter. So he didn't accuse you of
Speaker 1: anything explicitly. Read isn't the kind of guy to hide
Speaker 1: his cards. He's too much of a narcissist. If he
Speaker 1: knew about the test, he would have told you right then.
Speaker 1: And they're just to see you squirm. Did the proxy
Speaker 1: sign a nondisclosure? No? But I assume Harry, if you're
Speaker 1: going to break the law, you can't assume anything. I'll
Speaker 1: call an attorney friend of mine. She'll get you an
Speaker 1: air tight NDIA in no time. What about Natalie, She
Speaker 1: isn't the most discreet person. That's gonna be a heart
Speaker 1: of fix. How were her scores on the protests understood? Well,
Speaker 1: you're going to have to just lay it out for
Speaker 1: her if she wants to attend a college of note,
Speaker 1: some sacrifices needed to be made. She won't stop berating
Speaker 1: me about how wrong I was for cheating. Unless you're
Speaker 1: physically hurting another person, there is no such thing as
Speaker 1: wrong when it comes to protecting your children. Natalie and
Speaker 1: I are heading to the after party, trying to salvage
Speaker 1: what's left of this not are y'all coming time to
Speaker 1: celebrate Freed getting exposed? I'm ready to rage. Yeah, go
Speaker 1: ahead without me. Adrian offered to drive me. Oh, Adrian,
Speaker 1: you two already at the grabbing a ride phase. This
Speaker 1: might be the most serious you've been about. A voice
Speaker 1: insane from one direction. Shut up, Peyton, It's not true. Celia.
Speaker 1: Where'd you go? I thought I saw her talking to
Speaker 1: her mom right before I left. No worries. I'll find
Speaker 1: her and we'll catch up. Have them bring the car,
Speaker 1: will you? Where is he? Mom's dad? Come on, you
Speaker 1: won't even talk to me. Where's William Dean? He's on
Speaker 1: his way. It was ridiculous of you to ban me
Speaker 1: from coming to the bus. Had you done anything out
Speaker 1: of line at this event tonight, it could have had
Speaker 1: grave consequences for your mother and I. But you never
Speaker 1: told me why. You never explained anything to me. You
Speaker 1: either leave me alone completely or try to control me.
Speaker 1: I was a lot like you when I was your age, exuberant, unafraid,
Speaker 1: but unlike you, I did not grow up wearing Alexander McQueen.
Speaker 1: I didn't have an unlimited allowance. I had never even
Speaker 1: left my hometown before I married your father. You live
Speaker 1: the life that I dreamt of as a teenager, and
Speaker 1: yet you are ungrateful. I'm not ungrateful, mom, I just
Speaker 1: wish that you could be more honest with me. It's
Speaker 1: for your safety. We have let you run free long enough,
Speaker 1: but if you want to continue to live the life
Speaker 1: that we live and attend high society galas with future
Speaker 1: A listers like Mackenzie, you must obey your father and
Speaker 1: I always am I understood? Is that I am? I understood? Yes? Good?
Speaker 1: I expect you can find your own way home him.
Speaker 1: Why haven't you set me any pecks of that gorgeous
Speaker 1: McQueen dress yet? Mackenzie, all went wrong? Can you pick
Speaker 1: me up? Yeah? Be there and fine? How is it
Speaker 1: possible that I'm still in high school? I'm so over this, Celia,
Speaker 1: see you in a few Kenzie, Hey, James, Hey, are
Speaker 1: you okay? I'm fine? Do you seem shaking up? I'm fine? Well, Celia,
Speaker 1: I I have to tell you something. What your your parents,
Speaker 1: whatever you heard from Natalie, or whatever you're thinking. I
Speaker 1: can handle my parents. Okay, I know, but you know what, James,
Speaker 1: You're but out of my business? Hey, are you okay? Paton? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm fine. You want to talk about it. I don't
Speaker 1: want to cross a line or anything, but I'm a
Speaker 1: pretty good listener. See I cannot talk all day? Still
Speaker 1: not talking? Okay, Okay, I want to dance always. It
Speaker 1: looks like Peyton and your brother are getting pretty serious.
Speaker 1: I don't even want to think about it. So you
Speaker 1: are painting blackbun are friends? I don't get it? Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: someone looking at us right now probably wouldn't get why
Speaker 1: we're friends either. We're friends? Yeah? Who maybe could hang
Speaker 1: out more outside of the hacker forms or whatever? I mean, sure,
Speaker 1: you know, if there was something cool to do outside
Speaker 1: I mean not like outside outside, but like not online
Speaker 1: cool cool. Yeah? Okay, this night has basically been a
Speaker 1: total disaster for pretty much everyone I care about. But
Speaker 1: Locksmith also totally threw down a judge Reed and Adrian
Speaker 1: is Onyx And is it wrong that I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm totally flying right now? You better have answers, Locksmith?
Speaker 1: Who did this to me? I'm not so sure you'll
Speaker 1: like what I've on Earth Trammy and Your Communications were
