00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:10,010
I have good news.

5
00:00:10,093 --> 00:00:11,136
I could use it.

6
00:00:11,219 --> 00:00:13,722
I got a job at the bowling alley.

7
00:00:16,182 --> 00:00:18,393
-Working with Brenda?
-Every day.

8
00:00:18,476 --> 00:00:20,937
I am so sorry about today.

9
00:00:21,020 --> 00:00:23,440
I'd just hate to see
you walk away from the Lord.

10
00:00:23,523 --> 00:00:25,984
Feels like he's walkin' away from me.

11
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:34,659
What is that?

12
00:00:34,826 --> 00:00:35,994
Hamburger Helper.

13
00:00:36,077 --> 00:00:37,662
It's official, we're poor.

14
00:00:37,954 --> 00:00:40,999
We're not poor. We…
There's hamburger in there.

15
00:00:41,249 --> 00:00:42,584
There is hamburger in there?

16
00:00:43,460 --> 00:00:44,544
I like it.

17
00:00:44,627 --> 00:00:46,671
It helps hamburger make a great meal.

18
00:00:46,755 --> 00:00:49,299
It's a good thing,
'cause you're definitely poor.

19
00:00:49,382 --> 00:00:51,134
-Like us.
-We're fine.

20
00:00:51,217 --> 00:00:53,136
-Actually--
-Just eat.

21
00:00:53,344 --> 00:00:55,388
-Do we still say grace?
-Why not?

22
00:00:55,597 --> 00:00:58,099
Mom's been taking a break
from church. Mom?

23
00:00:58,850 --> 00:01:02,062
Well, I hadn't really thought about it.
We can if you want to.

24
00:01:02,145 --> 00:01:03,104
Let's not.

25
00:01:03,188 --> 00:01:05,940
As meaningless as it is,
I do find it comforting.

26
00:01:06,024 --> 00:01:08,651
Will somebody make a decision?
It's getting cold.

27
00:01:08,735 --> 00:01:10,987
No. It's good cold or hot.
Like Grape Nuts.

28
00:01:11,071 --> 00:01:12,197
Ooh, can I say it?

29
00:01:12,697 --> 00:01:13,531
Sure.

[Missy clears throat]

31
00:01:16,826 --> 00:01:18,787
Bless us, Lord,
for the food we receive

32
00:01:18,870 --> 00:01:20,830
and bless the hands that prepared it.

33
00:01:21,456 --> 00:01:24,125
Let me have a good hair day
for pictures this week.

34
00:01:24,876 --> 00:01:27,003
-Let's see. What else do I want?
-Wrap it up.

35
00:01:27,504 --> 00:01:30,298
Please let Dad find a full-time job
before we lose cable. Amen.

36
00:01:30,381 --> 00:01:31,758
-Amen.
-Amen.

[theme music playing]

38
00:01:56,574 --> 00:02:01,079
So, how's it going with this whole
no church thing?

39
00:02:02,330 --> 00:02:05,083
It's a little weird,
but I'm figuring it out.

40
00:02:05,166 --> 00:02:06,709
Think you might go back?

41
00:02:08,086 --> 00:02:09,420
I don't know yet.

42
00:02:09,504 --> 00:02:10,922
Find a different church?

43
00:02:11,172 --> 00:02:12,882
I don't know, George.

44
00:02:15,552 --> 00:02:17,303
I'm gonna get a beer.

45
00:02:17,387 --> 00:02:21,182
You… care to join me
like the good old days?

46
00:02:21,266 --> 00:02:24,894
Just 'cause I'm not going to church
doesn't mean I'm suddenly a drinker.

47
00:02:24,978 --> 00:02:28,064
Okay. Well, then I guess
me and my friends will say good night.

48
00:02:31,317 --> 00:02:32,277
We need to talk.

49
00:02:32,527 --> 00:02:33,528
About what?

50
00:02:33,611 --> 00:02:36,447
You do their taxes. How bad off are we?

51
00:02:36,531 --> 00:02:37,907
Based on their income,

52
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:39,909
we'll run out
by the end of the year.

53
00:02:39,993 --> 00:02:41,995
-Before or after Christmas?
-Before.

54
00:02:42,245 --> 00:02:43,913
Not what I wanted to hear.

55
00:02:45,248 --> 00:02:46,249
[sighs]

56
00:02:46,332 --> 00:02:47,750
Anything we can do to help?

57
00:02:48,126 --> 00:02:49,752
Perhaps we could sell our stuff.

58
00:02:49,836 --> 00:02:51,004
But I like my stuff.

59
00:02:51,671 --> 00:02:53,756
I like my stuff too. Let's keep thinking.

62
00:03:00,638 --> 00:03:01,472
Hello.

63
00:03:01,556 --> 00:03:03,433
Connie, Grant Linkletter.

64
00:03:03,975 --> 00:03:05,476
Hello, Grant.

65
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:06,853
What can I do for you?

66
00:03:06,936 --> 00:03:09,606
Well, I looked at my calendar
and it's been six weeks

67
00:03:09,689 --> 00:03:12,567
since I asked you out,
so I thought I'd give it a shot.

68
00:03:12,650 --> 00:03:14,903
You ask me out every six weeks?

69
00:03:14,986 --> 00:03:17,822
It used to be nine,
but we're not getting any younger.

70
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:20,575
I'll tell you what.

71
00:03:21,451 --> 00:03:22,285
Fine.

72
00:03:22,368 --> 00:03:24,203
-Really?
-Why not?

73
00:03:24,287 --> 00:03:25,705
[chuckles] Excellent!

74
00:03:25,788 --> 00:03:27,165
But I wanna be clear.

75
00:03:27,248 --> 00:03:29,542
This is just one of those…
What you call it?

76
00:03:29,626 --> 00:03:32,629
Platonic things. We're just having dinner.

77
00:03:32,712 --> 00:03:33,922
I'll take it.

78
00:03:34,005 --> 00:03:37,050
Now would you prefer a restaurant
or some good home cooking?

79
00:03:37,133 --> 00:03:38,927
I make seven kinds of soup.

80
00:03:39,010 --> 00:03:41,429
-I'll stick with a restaurant.
-Fair enough.

81
00:03:41,512 --> 00:03:45,516
But one day you'll try my mushroom
barley and your taste buds will swoon.

82
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,643
Good night, Grant.

83
00:03:46,726 --> 00:03:48,770
The secret is how I cook the onions!

84
00:03:57,362 --> 00:03:58,988
Chicken coop, now.

[door opens]

86
00:04:03,576 --> 00:04:04,410
Hi.

87
00:04:04,619 --> 00:04:06,079
What are we doing?

88
00:04:06,162 --> 00:04:07,580
What are you doing?

89
00:04:08,289 --> 00:04:10,625
You hired Mary
to work at the bowling alley.

90
00:04:11,459 --> 00:04:12,835
She needed a job.

91
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:14,212
I was being nice.

92
00:04:14,295 --> 00:04:15,713
You don't think it's weird?

93
00:04:16,214 --> 00:04:19,717
This right here, it's all weird.

94
00:04:21,010 --> 00:04:21,886
Are you drunk?

95
00:04:22,345 --> 00:04:23,972
Not nearly enough.

96
00:04:24,055 --> 00:04:26,182
You and Mary working together
is a bad idea

97
00:04:26,265 --> 00:04:29,435
considering, you know, you and me.

98
00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:31,312
We haven't done anything, George.

99
00:04:31,396 --> 00:04:33,272
There was considering. You know it.

100
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:36,734
What do you want me to do?
To fire her?

101
00:04:36,818 --> 00:04:39,320
No, no, that'll be weird.

102
00:04:39,404 --> 00:04:42,740
Which is exactly where we started.
Good night.

103
00:04:48,830 --> 00:04:50,540
You understand what I'm saying.

104
00:04:53,334 --> 00:04:55,044
Okay. So what are you good at?

105
00:04:55,753 --> 00:04:56,587
I'm popular.

106
00:04:57,005 --> 00:04:58,089
That is not a skill.

107
00:04:58,172 --> 00:04:59,007
You can't do it.

108
00:04:59,090 --> 00:04:59,966
Fine.

109
00:05:00,591 --> 00:05:01,884
You could go on Jeopardy!

110
00:05:01,968 --> 00:05:04,637
Never. I don't like answers
in the form of questions.

111
00:05:04,721 --> 00:05:06,222
I like answers to be answers

112
00:05:06,306 --> 00:05:08,391
and questions to be questions,
thank you.

113
00:05:09,058 --> 00:05:12,103
Perhaps I could sell story ideas
to TV shows like Star Trek.

114
00:05:12,186 --> 00:05:14,063
Do you think
they'd listen to a kid?

115
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:15,565
My voice has gotten deeper.

116
00:05:15,690 --> 00:05:18,192
I answered the phone
and wasn't mistaken for Mom.

117
00:05:18,735 --> 00:05:20,570
Star Trek's not gonna
buy your ideas.

118
00:05:20,653 --> 00:05:21,696
We'll see.

119
00:05:21,779 --> 00:05:24,115
In one, the Enterprise
falls into a time tunnel

120
00:05:24,198 --> 00:05:26,701
and Worf becomes a Worf
from the future.

121
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:29,203
We could let people punch you.

122
00:05:29,454 --> 00:05:32,165
No. All our profit would just go
to medical expenses.

123
00:05:38,713 --> 00:05:42,091
Hey, Brenda, I was trying to do
the books for the quarter

124
00:05:42,175 --> 00:05:44,343
and I was having trouble
making sense of it.

125
00:05:44,427 --> 00:05:47,180
You know, Mary, if it's too big of a mess

126
00:05:47,263 --> 00:05:50,641
and you'd rather work somewhere else,
I'd understand.

127
00:05:50,725 --> 00:05:52,685
No, I'll figure it out.

128
00:05:53,436 --> 00:05:56,355
Great. So happy you're here.

129
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:57,732
Oh.

130
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:03,237
Hey there.

131
00:06:03,321 --> 00:06:05,364
Oh. [chuckles]

132
00:06:05,448 --> 00:06:06,282
Hi, Mary.

133
00:06:07,992 --> 00:06:09,786
Got an eight-pounder
that's not pink.

134
00:06:11,287 --> 00:06:13,039
I didn't know you bowled.

135
00:06:13,122 --> 00:06:14,415
I didn't know you did.

136
00:06:14,499 --> 00:06:16,250
Actually…

137
00:06:16,793 --> 00:06:18,211
I work here now.

138
00:06:18,294 --> 00:06:20,588
Oh! Sure, okay.

139
00:06:21,297 --> 00:06:22,632
I…

140
00:06:22,715 --> 00:06:27,303
I'm so sorry about
how things went down at church.

141
00:06:28,262 --> 00:06:30,598
If it helps, the place has gone to heck.

142
00:06:31,432 --> 00:06:32,308
Good.

143
00:06:32,391 --> 00:06:33,976
[both chuckle]

144
00:06:35,728 --> 00:06:37,814
I sure do miss working with you.

145
00:06:38,898 --> 00:06:42,318
Well, we can still be friends
even if we don't work together.

146
00:06:43,820 --> 00:06:44,654
I'd like that.

147
00:06:45,404 --> 00:06:46,823
You find a kiddie ball yet?

148
00:06:47,281 --> 00:06:50,326
It's not about the weight.
It's just I have small fingers.

149
00:06:51,327 --> 00:06:53,955
Oh, uh, Mary, this is Shannon.

150
00:06:54,038 --> 00:06:57,041
-Shannon, this is Mary Cooper.
-Hi.

151
00:06:57,125 --> 00:06:58,793
You used to be Mary Tucker.

152
00:06:59,752 --> 00:07:01,337
Not in a long time.

153
00:07:01,420 --> 00:07:02,588
You remember me?

154
00:07:03,589 --> 00:07:04,632
Sorry, no.

155
00:07:04,715 --> 00:07:07,677
Shannon Dixon, you used to babysit me.

156
00:07:09,178 --> 00:07:10,263
Is that so?

157
00:07:10,763 --> 00:07:11,681
She was so great.

158
00:07:11,764 --> 00:07:13,558
She let me stay up and watch TV

159
00:07:13,641 --> 00:07:15,685
while she'd make out
with her boyfriend.

160
00:07:15,768 --> 00:07:16,686
[wheezy laughter]

161
00:07:16,769 --> 00:07:19,188
I don't remember any of that.

162
00:07:19,272 --> 00:07:22,066
I'm not surprised, you hit
my dad's liquor pretty hard.

163
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:23,818
Well, Mary Cooper.

164
00:07:23,901 --> 00:07:26,904
I was young and I hadn't found the Lord.

165
00:07:26,988 --> 00:07:29,448
You two have a great time.

166
00:07:37,081 --> 00:07:38,749
Here's that invoice.

167
00:07:38,833 --> 00:07:42,462
Oh, great. I see Pastor Rob's here again.

168
00:07:43,254 --> 00:07:44,088
Does…

169
00:07:45,089 --> 00:07:46,632
Does he come here often?

170
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:49,635
Not with that one, she's new.

171
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:52,847
Well, good for him.

172
00:07:53,556 --> 00:07:56,058
Single, good-looking pastor.

173
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:59,228
In a small town like this,
he might as well be Roger Staubach.

174
00:08:01,939 --> 00:08:03,649
Oh, my God. The Dallas Cowboys.

175
00:08:03,733 --> 00:08:05,484
Oh, sure. Of course.

176
00:08:06,611 --> 00:08:11,157
Hey, if you need me I'm gonna be
on the office doing… office things.

177
00:08:17,788 --> 00:08:18,831
What are you doing?

178
00:08:19,123 --> 00:08:22,335
I ran out of beer at home,
didn't feel like driving to the store.

179
00:08:22,418 --> 00:08:24,545
So you just waltz in and help yourself?

180
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:26,214
About sums it up.

181
00:08:27,089 --> 00:08:28,591
I'm changing the locks.

182
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:29,759
[chuckles]

183
00:08:30,301 --> 00:08:31,552
Cheers.

184
00:08:35,139 --> 00:08:36,807
So how's my daughter doing?

185
00:08:37,183 --> 00:08:38,601
Yeah, she seems okay.

186
00:08:38,893 --> 00:08:40,394
Still trying to figure things out.

187
00:08:41,145 --> 00:08:44,607
I gotta be honest, I'm not upset
about less religion in the house.

188
00:08:44,690 --> 00:08:46,150
[chuckles] I hear you.

189
00:08:46,817 --> 00:08:51,072
Although Jesus making her forgive me
has come in handy more than a few times.

190
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:53,115
Yeah, I played that card too.

191
00:08:53,199 --> 00:08:54,450
[Meemaw chuckles]

192
00:08:54,534 --> 00:08:58,246
Then again I remember Mary before God
got his mitts on her and…

193
00:08:59,163 --> 00:09:00,873
She was pretty wild.

194
00:09:01,540 --> 00:09:04,210
Don't have to tell me,
I was who she was wild with.

195
00:09:04,293 --> 00:09:07,296
Oh, she was wild
long before she ever met you.

196
00:09:07,672 --> 00:09:08,589
What do you mean?

197
00:09:09,924 --> 00:09:13,344
Did you think that you were
the first person she was wild with?

198
00:09:14,387 --> 00:09:16,389
Well, yeah.

199
00:09:22,728 --> 00:09:25,648
And as the Enterprise is about
to be assimilated by the Borg,

200
00:09:25,731 --> 00:09:28,484
another ship appears piloted
by Wesley Crusher!

201
00:09:28,651 --> 00:09:29,777
Uh-huh.

202
00:09:29,860 --> 00:09:32,488
It's surprising because
he left the show years ago,

203
00:09:32,572 --> 00:09:33,614
so it's a big deal!

204
00:09:33,698 --> 00:09:34,865
If you say so.

205
00:09:34,949 --> 00:09:36,284
I have more. Commander Data--

206
00:09:36,367 --> 00:09:39,787
I'd like a reservation for dinner.
Yes, I'll hold.

207
00:09:39,870 --> 00:09:41,831
You want to do this over dinner? Okay.

208
00:09:41,914 --> 00:09:44,083
I'm taking your grandmother out tonight.

209
00:09:44,375 --> 00:09:45,710
She didn't mention it to me.

210
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,004
Maybe because it doesn't concern you.

211
00:09:48,087 --> 00:09:51,382
My Meemaw, my professor.
Who's in the middle of that Venn diagram?

212
00:09:52,258 --> 00:09:54,010
Yes, two people at eight o'clock?

213
00:09:54,218 --> 00:09:56,053
8:00's a little late for Meemaw.

214
00:09:56,512 --> 00:09:57,763
What time does she eat?

215
00:09:57,847 --> 00:10:00,391
Well, she's old like you,
so 6:30 at the latest.

216
00:10:00,933 --> 00:10:03,060
Can we make that 6:30? Wonderful.

217
00:10:03,144 --> 00:10:05,688
Hold on. Does she like French food?

218
00:10:06,772 --> 00:10:08,065
I'll call you back.

219
00:10:10,026 --> 00:10:11,402
Anyway, Commander Data--

220
00:10:11,485 --> 00:10:12,653
Let me ask you a question.

221
00:10:12,737 --> 00:10:15,531
If Commander Data were taking
your Meemaw out for dinner,

222
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:16,616
where would they go?

223
00:10:16,699 --> 00:10:18,284
Almost certainly the Holodeck.

224
00:10:19,201 --> 00:10:21,537
Sounds trendy, is that in Houston?

225
00:10:25,499 --> 00:10:26,375
Hello.

226
00:10:26,876 --> 00:10:27,752
What's up?

227
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,587
I saw your "help wanted" sign.

228
00:10:29,670 --> 00:10:30,796
I'd like to help, please.

229
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:31,964
How old are you?

230
00:10:32,131 --> 00:10:33,591
How old do I need to be?

231
00:10:33,674 --> 00:10:34,675
Fourteen.

232
00:10:34,759 --> 00:10:36,719
[scoffs] Do I not look 14?

233
00:10:37,428 --> 00:10:38,387
I don't care.

234
00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:40,264
Perfect. So, when do I start?

235
00:10:40,348 --> 00:10:41,682
All right, hold on.

236
00:10:41,766 --> 00:10:43,893
-Do you even like comic books?
-Yeah.

237
00:10:43,976 --> 00:10:44,852
What's your favorite?

238
00:10:46,354 --> 00:10:47,229
Um…

239
00:10:47,730 --> 00:10:50,775
The cool thing about X-Men
is not that they have superpowers,

240
00:10:50,858 --> 00:10:52,485
but they're a metaphor
for outsiders…

241
00:10:52,568 --> 00:10:54,945
…outsiders trying to find
their place in society.

242
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:56,530
Who's your favorite?

243
00:10:57,114 --> 00:10:57,948
All of them.

244
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:00,326
Mine too.

245
00:11:00,409 --> 00:11:01,827
And I got the job.

246
00:11:01,911 --> 00:11:03,412
You can't work at that store.

247
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:05,665
If anyone should work there,
it should be me.

248
00:11:05,748 --> 00:11:07,124
Sorry, we're not hiring.

249
00:11:07,208 --> 00:11:08,626
Do I at least get a discount?

250
00:11:08,709 --> 00:11:09,585
I do.

251
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:13,089
[Mary sobbing]

252
00:11:17,802 --> 00:11:19,011
Oh, hey, hi.

253
00:11:19,095 --> 00:11:20,179
[sniffles]

254
00:11:21,013 --> 00:11:21,847
You okay?

255
00:11:23,224 --> 00:11:24,558
Not really.

256
00:11:24,642 --> 00:11:27,520
It's been a rough couple of days.

257
00:11:28,479 --> 00:11:29,313
I'm sorry.

258
00:11:29,522 --> 00:11:30,564
Thank you.

259
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:33,484
If it makes you feel better,
I've had a good couple of days

260
00:11:33,567 --> 00:11:34,944
and I'm still gonna get drunk.

261
00:11:35,027 --> 00:11:36,404
[both chuckle]

262
00:11:37,238 --> 00:11:38,155
Wanna join me?

263
00:11:39,990 --> 00:11:42,743
Yes. That would be nice.

264
00:11:43,327 --> 00:11:45,496
More sad than nice, but let's go.

265
00:11:45,579 --> 00:11:46,747
Okay.

266
00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:52,211
So, this is unexpected.

267
00:11:52,962 --> 00:11:54,213
I know you like margaritas,

268
00:11:54,296 --> 00:11:56,465
so my first thought
was a Mexican restaurant.

269
00:11:56,549 --> 00:11:57,508
Good thought.

270
00:11:57,591 --> 00:12:00,261
But I assumed other men
had come to that same conclusion.

271
00:12:00,344 --> 00:12:01,220
They have.

272
00:12:01,303 --> 00:12:03,389
Which led me to Polynesian fare.

273
00:12:03,472 --> 00:12:07,518
I like to think of the Mai Tai
as the margarita of the South Pacific.

274
00:12:08,769 --> 00:12:10,896
You don't do anything on a whim, do you?

275
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:12,565
Did once, didn't like it.

276
00:12:13,899 --> 00:12:15,443
[indistinct chatter on TV]

277
00:12:16,152 --> 00:12:19,196
I have an idea for a Star Trek episode
I'd like to present to you.

278
00:12:19,864 --> 00:12:20,698
Why me?

279
00:12:20,906 --> 00:12:24,076
Because I'm hoping to sell it,
and since it's broadcast television,

280
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,287
I wanna make sure
the common man understands it.

281
00:12:27,121 --> 00:12:28,789
Yeah, I understand I was insulted.

282
00:12:28,873 --> 00:12:31,000
Excellent, I came to the right common man.

283
00:12:31,625 --> 00:12:34,962
We start on a gas giant
in the vicinity of Rigel IV,

284
00:12:35,045 --> 00:12:39,425
then see a shuttlecraft, a dot of silver
against the inky blackness of space.

285
00:12:39,508 --> 00:12:43,596
Inside the shuttlecraft we see
Lieutenant Worf struggling to breathe.

286
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,849
He's been infected by
a vicious, intelligent fungus.

287
00:12:46,932 --> 00:12:48,809
-Where are you going?
-I'm listening.

288
00:12:48,893 --> 00:12:51,854
Cough! Cough! Worf is choking on spores.

289
00:12:51,937 --> 00:12:53,647
But not just your everyday spores,

290
00:12:53,731 --> 00:12:55,900
these are spores
with their own evil agenda.

291
00:12:55,983 --> 00:12:56,817
[laughs]

292
00:12:56,901 --> 00:13:00,237
As he sinks into a coma,
a mysterious figure approaches.

293
00:13:00,321 --> 00:13:03,407
He lowers the visor of his helmet
revealing… Future Worf!

294
00:13:03,491 --> 00:13:05,117
-Are you hooked?
-Oh, yeah.

295
00:13:06,327 --> 00:13:08,037
Main titles. Cue theme song

296
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,499
and the soothing voice of Patrick Stewart
as Captain Picard says…

297
00:13:13,292 --> 00:13:14,126
"Space,

298
00:13:16,837 --> 00:13:18,088
the final frontier."

299
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:20,508
Who's Patrick Stewart?

300
00:13:23,427 --> 00:13:25,554
-Feeling better?
-I'm fine.

301
00:13:25,638 --> 00:13:27,598
Just having a little moment earlier.

302
00:13:27,723 --> 00:13:29,808
Oh, yeah. All right.

303
00:13:29,892 --> 00:13:31,143
[country music playing]

304
00:13:31,227 --> 00:13:32,478
Mm.

305
00:13:35,606 --> 00:13:39,818
Seems like running into Pastor Rob
kind of rattled you a little bit.

306
00:13:39,985 --> 00:13:41,820
Oh, well…

307
00:13:43,739 --> 00:13:47,743
I was asked to leave the church
and he's still there, so…

308
00:13:48,327 --> 00:13:49,828
It's still a little fresh.

309
00:13:50,037 --> 00:13:51,664
Mm. I get that.

310
00:13:52,831 --> 00:13:54,291
Seems like a nice guy though.

311
00:13:54,375 --> 00:13:56,335
Oh, yeah, he's great.

312
00:13:56,502 --> 00:13:58,045
Cute as a button.

313
00:13:58,629 --> 00:14:02,341
I guess. I prefer a bigger man.

314
00:14:03,425 --> 00:14:04,301
Like George?

315
00:14:05,219 --> 00:14:06,929
Oh, yeah. Bigger the better.

316
00:14:08,931 --> 00:14:11,809
Deep within the Enterprise's control room,
Future Worf says,

317
00:14:11,892 --> 00:14:14,728
"I willingly sacrifice myself
for the good of this mission,"

318
00:14:14,812 --> 00:14:18,274
then throws himself into the warp core.
There's an explosion of tachyons.

319
00:14:18,357 --> 00:14:21,151
The Enterprise blasts free
of the gigantic field of fungus.

320
00:14:21,735 --> 00:14:25,823
-Fade out. Written by: Sheldon Lee Cooper.
-[toilet flushing]

321
00:14:27,241 --> 00:14:28,409
What do you think?

322
00:14:29,994 --> 00:14:32,621
If this Worf fella was
infected on the shuttle,

323
00:14:33,122 --> 00:14:35,916
why would he come back
and put everyone else in danger?

324
00:14:36,834 --> 00:14:37,877
Well…

325
00:14:39,461 --> 00:14:41,922
[adult Sheldon] My father
found a flaw in my story,

326
00:14:42,006 --> 00:14:44,091
my sister had a job I envied,

327
00:14:44,174 --> 00:14:46,135
it was a big day for the common man.

328
00:14:46,677 --> 00:14:48,512
But then I had an idea,

329
00:14:48,596 --> 00:14:51,098
that like Future Worf,
was ahead of its time.

330
00:14:51,181 --> 00:14:52,141
[knock at door]

331
00:14:52,224 --> 00:14:53,684
-[Sheldon] Missy.
-What?

332
00:14:54,810 --> 00:14:56,395
Why is a dollar worth a dollar?

333
00:14:56,645 --> 00:14:57,730
Sheldon, I'm busy.

334
00:14:57,813 --> 00:15:00,107
Me too. I've solved all
of our money problems.

335
00:15:00,190 --> 00:15:02,151
I'm going to invent a digital currency.

336
00:15:02,234 --> 00:15:03,694
Like printing your own?

337
00:15:03,777 --> 00:15:06,488
No. First, we assign value
to difficult-to-find numbers

338
00:15:06,572 --> 00:15:07,906
and store them in a database.

339
00:15:07,990 --> 00:15:10,159
Then we create an algorithm
to mine numbers,

340
00:15:10,242 --> 00:15:11,785
then we get people to switch

341
00:15:11,869 --> 00:15:13,621
from government currencies to ours.

342
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:16,415
It's brilliant. I'm going to be rich.

343
00:15:17,207 --> 00:15:21,295
Speaking of, did you know Batman
is also secretly a rich dude?

344
00:15:21,378 --> 00:15:25,007
Or he lives in a rich dude's basement.
I'm still figuring it out.

345
00:15:25,090 --> 00:15:26,133
[sighs]

346
00:15:29,386 --> 00:15:31,263
Oh, thank you, tiki woman.

347
00:15:31,347 --> 00:15:34,058
So, what's going on at work?

348
00:15:34,141 --> 00:15:35,768
I don't wanna bore you.

349
00:15:35,851 --> 00:15:37,144
No, no, I'm interested.

350
00:15:37,227 --> 00:15:38,228
Excellent.

351
00:15:38,312 --> 00:15:39,605
We're racing the Finnish team

352
00:15:39,688 --> 00:15:42,399
to see if we can correct
unification of the leptons.

353
00:15:42,483 --> 00:15:45,235
As you can imagine,
the world waits anxiously

354
00:15:45,319 --> 00:15:47,404
to see who crosses the finish line first.

355
00:15:47,488 --> 00:15:49,573
So the Finnish may be at the finish line?

356
00:15:49,657 --> 00:15:50,991
[wheezy laughter]

357
00:15:53,327 --> 00:15:54,745
Oh, you're witty too.

358
00:15:55,245 --> 00:15:56,872
More cheese to bait the trap.

359
00:15:57,748 --> 00:15:59,208
Maybe we should order dinner.

360
00:15:59,291 --> 00:16:01,460
Nonsense. There's food right here.

361
00:16:01,543 --> 00:16:07,424
Pineapple. Prickly on the outside
but beautiful inside, just like you.

362
00:16:12,221 --> 00:16:14,056
And you know, that Shannon girl.

363
00:16:14,139 --> 00:16:17,601
-With Pastor Rob?
-She was a bedwetter!

364
00:16:19,144 --> 00:16:21,021
Ten years old. That's not normal.

365
00:16:21,105 --> 00:16:23,816
Maybe he'll get a fun little surprise
on their honeymoon.

366
00:16:24,358 --> 00:16:26,610
Oh, no, they're not getting married.

367
00:16:26,694 --> 00:16:27,695
How do you know?

368
00:16:28,445 --> 00:16:31,156
I don't. I just think he can do better.

369
00:16:32,282 --> 00:16:36,537
Mary Cooper, are you sweet on him?

370
00:16:36,620 --> 00:16:38,455
No! What?

371
00:16:38,539 --> 00:16:40,624
I am a married woman.

372
00:16:41,417 --> 00:16:42,835
Happily.

373
00:16:42,918 --> 00:16:45,212
I was married once.
Didn't stop me from looking.

374
00:16:45,295 --> 00:16:46,964
Well, I'm not looking.

375
00:16:47,047 --> 00:16:48,590
[country song playing]

376
00:16:48,674 --> 00:16:50,426
-Where you going?
-To dance.

377
00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:52,344
I didn't think you Baptists did that.

378
00:16:52,428 --> 00:16:53,721
We don't drink either.

379
00:16:53,804 --> 00:16:54,805
Oh!

380
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:56,473
Look at me.

381
00:16:57,307 --> 00:16:58,684
[Mary giggling]

382
00:16:59,476 --> 00:17:01,145
I'm pretty good.

383
00:17:01,228 --> 00:17:04,189
Are you familiar with,
"You need money to make money"?

384
00:17:04,398 --> 00:17:06,400
-No.
-Well, it's a phrase.

385
00:17:06,483 --> 00:17:10,029
My clever twist on it is,
"I'm going to make money to make money."

386
00:17:10,112 --> 00:17:11,030
Uh-huh.

387
00:17:11,113 --> 00:17:12,573
Now when I say, "make money,"

388
00:17:12,656 --> 00:17:14,491
you'd think it's about counterfeiting.

389
00:17:14,575 --> 00:17:18,120
But no, I'm talking about creating
a unique decentralized digital currency

390
00:17:18,203 --> 00:17:19,455
people can pay to own.

391
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:20,622
Sounds like a scam.

392
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:24,710
No, it's an open-source currency that
has value due to mathematical scarcity.

393
00:17:25,252 --> 00:17:26,378
Sounds pretty scammy.

394
00:17:26,462 --> 00:17:27,671
[sighs] You don't understand.

395
00:17:27,755 --> 00:17:28,797
I do.

396
00:17:28,881 --> 00:17:30,799
You say a bunch of fancy jibber-jabber,

397
00:17:30,883 --> 00:17:32,968
people don't admit they're too stupid,

398
00:17:33,052 --> 00:17:34,094
then they give you money.

399
00:17:34,178 --> 00:17:36,805
Well, um, sort of.

400
00:17:37,556 --> 00:17:39,516
Love it. How do we get started?

401
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,727
Well, all we need is a mainframe computer.

402
00:17:41,810 --> 00:17:42,686
How much is that?

403
00:17:42,770 --> 00:17:44,521
New, about a half a million dollars,

404
00:17:44,605 --> 00:17:46,815
but I'm hoping to find
something slightly used.

405
00:17:47,775 --> 00:17:49,193
Time will prove me right!

406
00:17:51,945 --> 00:17:54,448
You won't believe this,
but I don't go on dates.

407
00:17:54,531 --> 00:17:55,699
No.

408
00:17:56,784 --> 00:17:57,618
It's true.

409
00:17:57,701 --> 00:18:00,913
Sure I did okay as a younger man,
but there was a war on

410
00:18:00,996 --> 00:18:03,040
and most of the men
were elsewhere.

411
00:18:03,749 --> 00:18:05,209
So you sowed oats, I get it.

412
00:18:05,292 --> 00:18:06,585
A whole field of them.

413
00:18:06,668 --> 00:18:08,378
I was the Johnny Appleseed of oats.

414
00:18:08,462 --> 00:18:09,505
Okay.

415
00:18:10,047 --> 00:18:11,215
But here's the thing,

416
00:18:11,924 --> 00:18:14,843
once you put off matrimony
past a certain point,

417
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:17,638
women start to think of you as…
What's the word?

418
00:18:17,930 --> 00:18:19,640
-Creepy?
-There it is.

419
00:18:20,349 --> 00:18:21,683
And then along comes you.

420
00:18:21,850 --> 00:18:26,480
My little Texas firecracker, playing
the game of life by her own set of rules.

421
00:18:26,647 --> 00:18:29,024
I'm a firecracker, I'm a pineapple.

422
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:31,026
Good for me.

423
00:18:31,318 --> 00:18:32,820
Can I ask you a personal question?

424
00:18:32,903 --> 00:18:33,946
I wish you wouldn't.

425
00:18:34,029 --> 00:18:36,448
How would you like to make love to a man

426
00:18:36,532 --> 00:18:38,450
who shook the hand of Albert Einstein?

427
00:18:38,534 --> 00:18:40,160
And you did.

428
00:18:40,410 --> 00:18:41,912
This one right here.

429
00:18:42,412 --> 00:18:43,622
I didn't wash for a week.

430
00:18:43,705 --> 00:18:45,040
Not a selling point.

431
00:18:46,917 --> 00:18:48,293
Excuse me for a moment.

432
00:18:49,711 --> 00:18:51,588
I have to toss my cookies.

433
00:18:55,342 --> 00:18:56,593
[door shuts]

434
00:18:57,177 --> 00:18:58,887
Hey, where have you been?

435
00:18:59,596 --> 00:19:02,474
Brenda and I went dancing.

436
00:19:02,724 --> 00:19:04,226
You went dancing?

437
00:19:04,434 --> 00:19:07,146
Yeah, and I'm darn good at it.

438
00:19:07,229 --> 00:19:08,522
[chuckles] Okay.

439
00:19:09,731 --> 00:19:11,692
-The kids asleep?
-Yep.

440
00:19:13,068 --> 00:19:15,237
You wanna fool around?

441
00:19:17,239 --> 00:19:19,616
-Are you messing with me?
-I'm hoping to.

442
00:19:21,702 --> 00:19:23,120
Well, hot diggity dog.

443
00:19:27,749 --> 00:19:30,002
Welcome to King Kong Comics. I'm Missy.

444
00:19:30,085 --> 00:19:31,670
If you have questions,
let me know.

445
00:19:31,753 --> 00:19:32,921
I don't have questions.

446
00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:34,715
I know more about this than you do.

447
00:19:34,798 --> 00:19:38,302
Okay. What you may not know
is the new Green Lantern just came in.

448
00:19:39,469 --> 00:19:40,762
If you like green things,

449
00:19:40,846 --> 00:19:42,764
I recommend Green Arrow,
and The Hulk.

450
00:19:42,848 --> 00:19:43,765
His skin is green.

451
00:19:43,849 --> 00:19:45,517
I know that. Everyone knows that.

452
00:19:45,601 --> 00:19:47,686
Uh-oh. Are you gonna smash things?

453
00:19:47,769 --> 00:19:49,605
That's what the Hulk does
when he's upset.

454
00:19:49,688 --> 00:19:50,689
I'm not upset.

455
00:19:51,231 --> 00:19:53,734
Cool. If you need anything,
I'll be at the counter.

456
00:19:53,817 --> 00:19:54,860
Where I work.

457
00:20:01,074 --> 00:20:02,618
[theme music playing]
hing,
I'll be at the counter.
