0:01:44 > 0:01:46And so will best-selling author Al Franken.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Along with some super-smart fourth graders with a great idea for getting

0:01:49 > 0:01:54- schoolbooks to kids who really need them.- But here's an idea whose time has come...

0:01:59 > 0:02:04- 'And fill the tart shell. Bryant, you put some ice cream on our angel food cake.- How much do you want?

0:02:04 > 0:02:07'As much as you like.'

0:02:16 > 0:02:20HE MUMBLES INAUDIBLY

0:02:25 > 0:02:27'What are you laughing about?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30- 'This is Baked Alaska.- This is supposed to be low-fat.- It is!'

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Did they call? Someone from the show.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35The Gumbel show. They didn't call?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Are you sure?

0:02:38 > 0:02:43- Once again, we're out of time. - Thank you. Already?- Lots more ahead this morning. We'll be back...

0:03:10 > 0:03:14- What's up, dude?- What's up?

0:03:14 > 0:03:16Hey, can I get your autograph?

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Next in line!- Um.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'm not who you think I am, so...

0:03:22 > 0:03:23You're not the weather guy?

0:03:23 > 0:03:27- Dan Spritz?- Dave Spritz. I'm not Dave Spritz, no.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30But I hear that a lot.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37You don't have to be a dick.

0:03:40 > 0:03:41Look, can you just...

0:03:41 > 0:03:45All right, I'm just waiting in line.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Bro, I can read your vehicle registration form.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51So, whatever.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Can you...

0:03:53 > 0:03:55All right, can you give me a break?

0:03:55 > 0:03:56I just wanted to wait in line.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02You're on TV, bro.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04You're on TV.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07- You're on TV, bro. - So what? You keep saying that.

0:04:07 > 0:04:12- So you're on TV, bro. Go work in a bank or something if you don't wanna be cool to people.- Whatever. Just...

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Can you get out of my face?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Can you get out of my face?

0:04:20 > 0:04:22- Asshole. - You want to say that to my face?!

0:04:22 > 0:04:25I thought you wanted me to get out of your face.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30'People recognize me sometimes.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33'Some are dicks.'

0:04:35 > 0:04:39This is the same system that created those strong snowfalls in Minnesota. It's meant warmer weather...

0:04:39 > 0:04:41'I should cool out a little, I guess.

0:04:41 > 0:04:46'I mean, I'm not just this two-dimensional guy they recognize. I do have a relationship to them.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49'I let them know what they have to deal with.'

0:04:49 > 0:04:53..But these warmer temperatures are not going to last.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56This wind system will keep pushing colder air across the Midwest...

0:04:56 > 0:04:59'I guess that's why they think they know me. But they don't, really.'

0:04:59 > 0:05:01..Our Spritz Nipper of the week,

0:05:01 > 0:05:03with a high of just 24.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05'I'm not a hill of beans.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08'I have a plan.'

0:05:08 > 0:05:10OK, see you then.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- What's this afternoon? - You're picking up Shelly. - Where?- Chicago Dance.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Then you're taking your dad to Northwestern.- At three?- Mm-hm.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21- Oh, do you have that Hello America stuff?- The letter?- Yeah.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25- You have Mike, too. 5.30 at the Norris house.- OK.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Do they have my cell phone?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Well, they should have all the numbers in case.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51And am I supposed to call that guy, Dersen? Didn't he want me to call to touch base?

0:05:51 > 0:05:52OK.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57- Dad, can we stop here?- What for?

0:05:57 > 0:06:00I need a notebook for school.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04I'll just walk home.

0:06:06 > 0:06:07OK.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Can I have some money?

0:06:11 > 0:06:14- You don't have any?- No. - You're 12 years old.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17You shouldn't be walking around without money, OK, Shelly?

0:06:17 > 0:06:21- You're not a kid. How's your mom doing?- She's good.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32- Can I have a pack of Lights? - Regulars?- The 100s.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Strikes?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09- How's Shelly?- She's doing great.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14- Little angel.- Yeah. She's doing great.

0:07:16 > 0:07:17Who's an angel?

0:07:17 > 0:07:19Shelly.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Shelly is grossly overweight and unhappy.

0:07:21 > 0:07:26I'm concerned about her, as I am Michael. ..David.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Yeah, Dad.

0:07:53 > 0:07:54Robert Spritzel?

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Would you get me a paper for the way back, son?

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Yeah. 15 minutes?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Yes. I'll see you then.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Fuck.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18- Hey.- Hey.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21- It's getting cold.- Yeah.

0:08:21 > 0:08:27- What's the Nipper this week? - Er, Thursday.- Thursday's the Nipper?

0:08:27 > 0:08:29All right.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38Here.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Um... Yeah, can I get some change?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Not really.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Can I just get some quarters? I just need a quarter for a paper.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Not really.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52All right. I'll get something then.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59All right. Erm...

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Small coffee.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06- It's 80 cents.- No, it says 72.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09After the whole everything, it's 80.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- Hey.- Hi.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Where's the paper, David?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20I didn't have enough money.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23You bought a coffee.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- What?- You bought a coffee.

0:09:26 > 0:09:33- Yeah, that, and then I didn't have enough money...after.- What?

0:09:33 > 0:09:36I didn't have enough money after I bought the coffee, so...

0:09:38 > 0:09:42You should carry more than a dollar, David. You're a grown man.

0:09:45 > 0:09:49Let me just move this letter from Hello America.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24'My father is Robert King Spritzel.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29'He won the National Book Award when he was 28.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31'And the Pulitzer when he was 33.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34'President Carter called him "a national treasure."

0:10:34 > 0:10:37'They played racquetball in a regular game.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40'He was a great writer.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43'But what was the cost?

0:10:43 > 0:10:45'Did he neglect his family?

0:10:45 > 0:10:47'No, he didn't.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48'He was a fine father.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50'More than that, really.'

0:10:50 > 0:10:53It's fruitless for Shelly to be dancing.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55She should find another interest that would be...

0:10:55 > 0:11:00more rewarding to her, that she can take more from, David.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01We've talked about that.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Well, you should do something, son.

0:11:03 > 0:11:09- We've tried a couple things. We'll keep trying, so...- How's Michael?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11I think that was an overreaction on Noreen's part.

0:11:11 > 0:11:16- I don't think he has a problem with pot.- Let's hope.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17How's the weather business?

0:11:19 > 0:11:24HORNS BEEP

0:11:28 > 0:11:35'Last September, I had encouraged Shelly to explore some other activities and interests.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37'She picked archery.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40'So I took her to an archery range in Bolingbrook.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42'It was a 90-minute drive.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49'We purchased a junior bow-arrow kit and a leather wrist-forearm guard.'

0:11:49 > 0:11:51OK, we'll take that.

0:11:51 > 0:11:52'And private lessons.'

0:11:57 > 0:11:58All right, Shelly.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02You take that one...

0:12:02 > 0:12:04and go right ahead.

0:12:10 > 0:12:11Ow!

0:12:11 > 0:12:12All right.

0:12:12 > 0:12:18OK, just remember, pull it straight back, parallel to your ear, OK?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20You can do it, Shelly.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Ow!

0:12:28 > 0:12:30'We purchased a five-pack lesson plan.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33'We haven't been back.'

0:12:36 > 0:12:38MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Hello?

0:12:40 > 0:12:42- 'Hey.'- Hey.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44'Can you pick up Mike at the mall on North?'

0:12:44 > 0:12:47I thought he was at a friend's house. Paul Norris.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50'They went to the mall. He just called me.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52- 'He finished his rehab.'- OK.

0:12:59 > 0:13:00That's one of my counsellors.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03- In your programme? - Don Boden. He's pretty nice.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06He swears all the time though.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10- Swears?- Yeah. To relate, I guess. But he's pretty nice.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13# I am a passenger

0:13:14 > 0:13:16# And I ride and I ride

0:13:17 > 0:13:19# I ride through the city's... #

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Hey.- Hey, Don.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- What are you guys doing? - Looking for clothes.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27You're just looking for clothes?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Yeah.- That's great.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33I'm looking for clothes.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35OK.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38- This is Paul.- What's up?- Hey.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43- It's cold today. - Yeah.- Yeah, no kidding.

0:13:43 > 0:13:44What is it, like 20 or something?

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Yeah, like 22.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Yeah. Fuck.

0:13:48 > 0:13:49Yeah.

0:13:52 > 0:13:53Hey...

0:13:53 > 0:13:55- Yeah, I like this.- It's good-looking.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Yeah, I've been looking for something like this.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02Chuck it in here.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04- What?- Chuck it in.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06I'm loading up. I got a discount card.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08- I'll get it for you. - That's all right.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Mike, big deal.- I can get it.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Bro, I got a serious discount. It's gonna cost, like, 7.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21I'm gonna take off. Nice to meet you.

0:14:21 > 0:14:22You, too.

0:14:24 > 0:14:25CAR HORN BEEPS

0:14:25 > 0:14:29Oh. That's my dad. I'll see you later.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44- Hey.- Hey.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- Who's that?- Don Boden.

0:14:47 > 0:14:48Who's Don Boden?

0:14:48 > 0:14:50- He's one of my counsellors.- Oh.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54- That's a nice sweater.- Thanks.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11I'll walk you up.

0:15:14 > 0:15:15Hi.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18Hi. Thanks for getting Mike.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21- Hey, how was your thing? - It was good. I'll see you, Dad.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23OK, Mike.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25I think he's gonna be OK.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Well, we'll see.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33What's new?

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Nothing much.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36I got a feeler from Hello America.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38- What?- I got a feeler.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42Dales is leaving it. I might get called to audition.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44New York.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46- If I get called.- That's good.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52- What about the kids?- It's just a shot in the dark, that's all.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56Well, thanks for getting Mike.

0:15:56 > 0:16:02- I had to take my dad to Northwestern for a test, so I was right there, anyway.- Oh, is he OK?

0:16:02 > 0:16:05I think so. It was just a test.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18Noreen!

0:16:19 > 0:16:22- Ow!- Are you OK?

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Yeah. Fuck! What are you doing?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28I was just...

0:16:28 > 0:16:30You turned into it.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32I think you cracked the glass.

0:16:44 > 0:16:48- So, do you have everything you need? - 'Yeah, we got everything.

0:16:48 > 0:16:52'We'll pare it down to three applicants after we watch the tapes. We'll call if you're one, Dave.'

0:16:52 > 0:16:57- OK, Mark. It's nice to make your acquaintance.- 'You, too. Take care.' - Hey, weatherman!- Bye.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59- Fuck! - LAUGHTER

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Fuck!

0:17:02 > 0:17:05- David?- Hey.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09- What happened? - I got hit with a Frosty.- Why?

0:17:09 > 0:17:11What?

0:17:11 > 0:17:14Why did you get hit with a Frosty? What is a Frosty?

0:17:14 > 0:17:18A Frosty is a shake from Wendy's.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21Why would someone throw a shake at you?

0:17:22 > 0:17:24That happens sometimes.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28- People throw shakes at you?- Stuff. People throw stuff at me sometimes,

0:17:28 > 0:17:30if they don't like me, or something.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34- They don't know you.- From TV.

0:17:34 > 0:17:35But you just read the weather.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41- Well, I predict it.- You don't have a degree in meteorology.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44I make suppositions, or I...

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- What are you doing? - I walked over.- You walked?

0:17:48 > 0:17:49It's freezing.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51I have lymphoma, David.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56- What?- I have lymphoma.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00- Dr Pritch called.- What?

0:18:00 > 0:18:04I was having tremors. That's the reason that I went in.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Pritch read my scans.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09- What's the prognosis?- Well, it's...

0:18:09 > 0:18:11it's not good.

0:18:11 > 0:18:17- We'll talk about it this week. I wanted to tell you.- Yeah.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20I'll call you, after I've talked to Pritch again.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26I'll drive you home!

0:18:26 > 0:18:28I like the fresh air.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Well, I'll walk back with you. - No, that's OK.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35OK.

0:18:55 > 0:19:00'Every couple of months, someone throws something at me. A shake.

0:19:00 > 0:19:01'A burrito once.

0:19:01 > 0:19:08'Why? My name, partly, I guess. I changed it for professional reasons.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10'My first station manager suggested it.

0:19:10 > 0:19:14'He said it sounded refreshing and that they wanted that quality.

0:19:14 > 0:19:15'That may be true,

0:19:15 > 0:19:17'but it's also annoying.

0:19:17 > 0:19:18'I know that.'

0:19:18 > 0:19:21What kind of name is Spritz?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23It's a bullshit name.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25It's a TV name.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29- He's bullshit. - Well, I like him. He's handsome.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31He's an asshole.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33I don't like his face.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36His asshole face.

0:19:38 > 0:19:39'The other thing,

0:19:39 > 0:19:41'my job's very easy.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44'Two hours a day, basically reading prompts.

0:19:47 > 0:19:51'I make 240,000 a year, plus appearances...

0:19:53 > 0:19:57'..which are, you know, not comfortable for me.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59'But lucrative.'

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Four score and seven years ago,

0:20:02 > 0:20:06our fathers brought forth, on this continent...

0:20:06 > 0:20:08BAND STRIKES UP A TUNE

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Also, it makes other things easy, being on TV.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Everything's easy.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Oh! Yeah!

0:20:23 > 0:20:28Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh!

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Oh, oh!

0:20:30 > 0:20:35'I receive a large reward for pretty much zero effort and contribution.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37'The shakes and stuff are a reaction to that, I think.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54'What must you think of me?

0:20:54 > 0:20:56'Your family-leaver?

0:20:56 > 0:21:01'Your non-meteorologist, yet weatherman, Frosty-taking, fuck-happy son?

0:21:03 > 0:21:05'Don't die yet, Robert.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06'Give me time to get it together.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08'Give me a little while.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10'Let me get the Hello America job.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12'I can get it together.

0:21:44 > 0:21:49- Two for High Water.- I got mine, Don. - No, it's cool. I got it.- Thanks.

0:22:09 > 0:22:10Tricia's a bitch.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14She's a little cunt.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16I hate that little cunt.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21I'd like to burn her.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Hi.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Hi.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35Today's the company party.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39- I thought I'd take the kids.- Oh.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42Um... Well, Mike is out.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44- Shelly's home? - She's walking Jackson.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46Where do you want to take them?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48The rink. WCH.

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Hey!

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Hey.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57What?

0:23:04 > 0:23:06- Dave.- Hey, Tim.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11- I didn't know you were coming. - I always come to these...when I can.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17I have some time this week, if you want to go back up to Bolingbrook.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19- What's in Bolingbrook?- Sportsman's.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22- The archery range.- OK.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24OK? You wanna go?

0:23:24 > 0:23:26OK, I remember it.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Well, do you wanna go back up?

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Sometimes.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44- What's gonna happen?- What?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47What are we gonna do here?

0:23:51 > 0:23:52Great stuff.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00CHEERING

0:24:00 > 0:24:03Ladies and gentlemen, on your marks...

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Let's go, team Spritz!

0:24:06 > 0:24:10- ..get set... Go! - STARTING SIREN WAILS

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Go! Go!

0:24:13 > 0:24:16- Just keep up, Shell. Come on.- I'm trying to!

0:24:29 > 0:24:30- Agh!- Agh!

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Oof!

0:24:35 > 0:24:37We should finish.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40We're last. We're way last!

0:24:41 > 0:24:42There's a lesson here.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45- Let's finish.- I'm hurt.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Hon, you can do it. You can finish.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49OK? I don't want you to quit.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51It's gonna mean a lot to Dad. OK?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53All right.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Let's go.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56That's my girl.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00That's it... Good. I'm proud of you.

0:25:00 > 0:25:01OK?

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Ow! Ow!

0:25:08 > 0:25:11- Yay! That was great!- Ow!

0:25:11 > 0:25:14Hon. Hon, you OK?

0:25:14 > 0:25:16You shouldn't have made me finish!

0:25:16 > 0:25:20That was like a hundred yards you made me go.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22I'm not a football-jocker.

0:25:27 > 0:25:28- What happened?- Just...

0:25:28 > 0:25:30We got tangled up in a sack.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- What happened?!- She tore her ACL.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34These fucking crutches are too long!

0:25:34 > 0:25:37- What did you say?- Shelly!

0:25:38 > 0:25:41- Well, what were you doing? - It was a picnic.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42And she tore something?

0:25:42 > 0:25:46- ACL. MCL.- Which?

0:25:46 > 0:25:49- Both.- Dave! - Well, we didn't go bungee jumping!

0:25:49 > 0:25:51It was a fucking potato-sack race!

0:25:51 > 0:25:53- That's where she got it.- What?

0:25:53 > 0:25:55"Fucking" this. "Fucking" that.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57No, I never said that around her.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01You don't know you have, Dave, because you don't pay attention!

0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Fuck that!- What?

0:26:04 > 0:26:09- Just fuck that, Noreen. You know... - Dave.- What?- Step back.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12- Step back?- Step back.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13What are you talking about, Russ?

0:26:13 > 0:26:16- Russ.- Step back right now.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Fuck you, right now.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Fuck you, Spritz!

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Fuck you, fat asshole!

0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Dildo!- David...

0:26:25 > 0:26:27- what are you doing? - I'm talking to my wife!

0:26:27 > 0:26:30I'm talking to Noreen, and this clown, whose business this isn't.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33You call me a dildo, it is my business, Spritz.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35You are a dildo...pork-fuck!

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- You porker!- Stop, son,

0:26:38 > 0:26:40- would you?- Why don't you go?

0:26:40 > 0:26:44Why... Why are you here? Are you OK?

0:26:44 > 0:26:46I came to talk to Noreen.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49Dave, come on. I will talk to you later.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56Dave, what's going on, son?

0:26:56 > 0:26:58It's nothing. Just...

0:26:58 > 0:27:03- Why are you here, anyway? - I came to talk to Noreen about an issue concerning Shelly.

0:27:03 > 0:27:07Well, you can talk to me. I'm her parent, too. So? What?

0:27:07 > 0:27:13Shelly dresses in clothing not appropriate for her, clinging stuff.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16All kids wear... Dad, it's a different generation.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19They call her "camel toe."

0:27:20 > 0:27:23- What?- Are you aware of that?

0:27:23 > 0:27:26- What?- That her colleagues call her "camel toe."

0:27:26 > 0:27:28What are you talking about?

0:27:28 > 0:27:32It means the crease in her vagina that they can discern through her clothing.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34- What?!- Camel toe.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38- Yeah, I heard you. I mean, how do you know they do that?- I heard it.

0:27:38 > 0:27:43I picked Shelly up on Wednesday, heard taunting, the older boys calling it.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46- You might have heard wrong. - No, I heard camel...- OK, OK, look.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48I'll deal. I want to get her through this ACL thing.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51I'm gonna take her shooting, reapply her there, get her talking to me.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54I'm gonna get to her. I'm gonna work it out.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14'A camel toe is pretty much what Robert said it was.

0:28:17 > 0:28:20'It's basically just when you can make out more than you should.'

0:28:20 > 0:28:22HORNS BEEP

0:28:24 > 0:28:25'But it's the kind of thing...

0:28:25 > 0:28:28'She's 12, you know?

0:28:28 > 0:28:30'If you're around and paying attention, you catch it.

0:28:30 > 0:28:35'Then name-calling doesn't start, and maybe smoking doesn't start.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39'And maybe she can just stay a happy kid for a couple more years.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42'She shouldn't be unhappy. Fuck!

0:28:42 > 0:28:44'What did she ever do to anybody?

0:28:44 > 0:28:46'Shelly.'

0:28:49 > 0:28:52PHONE RINGS

0:28:55 > 0:28:57- Hello?- 'Hey.'

0:28:58 > 0:29:00- Hey.- 'Listen...

0:29:00 > 0:29:02'Noreen, I was thinking...'

0:29:02 > 0:29:05This pushing and pulling.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09The tug of war we do sometimes, it's not good for the kids.

0:29:09 > 0:29:14- It's not.- Noreen, let's see somebody.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16Work it out. Let's... Fuck!

0:29:16 > 0:29:17Asshole!

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Are you OK?

0:29:19 > 0:29:22I, I...I got hit with a pop!

0:29:22 > 0:29:23What?

0:29:23 > 0:29:26A fucking...

0:29:26 > 0:29:28A Big Gulp.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31- Man!- Are you OK?

0:29:31 > 0:29:33- Are you OK?- Yeah, I'm OK. I'm OK.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37So, er... I was saying...

0:29:37 > 0:29:39See somebody?

0:29:39 > 0:29:43We're going to begin with some trust-building exercises.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45The Buddy Drop. Up on your feet. Let's go.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50Um, Dave, Noreen. Centre circle.

0:29:53 > 0:29:54OK.

0:29:54 > 0:29:59Now, Noreen, you're just gonna let yourself go.

0:29:59 > 0:30:01And Dave is gonna catch you.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04- Just go back? - Yeah. Cross your arms up front.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08- Now?- Whenever you're ready.- OK.

0:30:10 > 0:30:11Oh!

0:30:11 > 0:30:13Good. Very good.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17All right, Teresa, Mark. You're up. OK.

0:30:17 > 0:30:21Now, I want you to name something

0:30:21 > 0:30:25that you did that affected your partner,

0:30:25 > 0:30:27and that you're not proud of.

0:30:29 > 0:30:34I had this thing with porno on the computer, sort of. I got a little preoccupied and...

0:30:34 > 0:30:38- Actually, I want you to write it down, not say it.- OK.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41- I want you to put it on the paper that you got for a reason.- OK.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47Now, make sure it's something the other person doesn't know about,

0:30:47 > 0:30:50that they don't know.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00All right.

0:31:00 > 0:31:04Then you are going to give it to the other person,

0:31:04 > 0:31:08and the other person is never going to look at it.

0:31:09 > 0:31:11Ever.

0:31:11 > 0:31:12That's trust.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41What's up?

0:31:51 > 0:31:57"I thought Dave's science-fiction novel, or whatever it was, was stupid and sucked, and was a waste of time.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59"It was embarrassing.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01"Four years?!"

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Well, I thought that went pretty well.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23Mm-hmm... Yeah.

0:32:33 > 0:32:37It wasn't science fiction, just so you know.

0:32:37 > 0:32:42- What?- It wasn't science fiction. - What are you talking about? - Did you even read it?

0:32:42 > 0:32:47- No. One of the side characters was a scientist, but that's not even important.- Goddamnit!- What?!

0:32:47 > 0:32:51- I'm just asking, did you ever even read it?- Oh, it was hard to read.

0:32:51 > 0:32:52It was poorly written.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55You're an asshole. God!

0:32:55 > 0:32:58You are a champion asshole.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00You're a real blue-ribbon fuck!

0:33:03 > 0:33:05I just wanna make it work, Noreen.

0:33:05 > 0:33:10I just want to know everything, so I can make it work. That's why I...

0:33:10 > 0:33:14- I want to try again. - I'm not going back. You fucked it up.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17- I mean, our marriage.- What?

0:33:22 > 0:33:23I want to try again.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27Fuck you.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30You know, Dave, you can't even...

0:33:30 > 0:33:32You looked at it.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35That's dishonest. It's crappy.

0:33:35 > 0:33:36- Noreen.- Hey, should I look at yours?

0:33:36 > 0:33:39That's all right. No. No, no, Noreen.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43Throughout marriage, BJs lacked enthusiasm.

0:33:43 > 0:33:48Had difference of opinion over how important that was. I thought very.

0:33:50 > 0:33:51You know what, Dave?

0:33:53 > 0:33:58You want to know why my BJs lacked enthusiasm?

0:33:58 > 0:34:00I hated you.

0:34:00 > 0:34:05I hated your hair. I hated your ugly legs, your forearms.

0:34:05 > 0:34:08I hated kissing your lips, Dave. OK?

0:34:08 > 0:34:12And that's why I lacked enthusiasm when your cock was in my mouth.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17Hey, hon.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19Shelly, it's cold.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22Your father said it was going to be 65 degrees today, but...

0:34:26 > 0:34:28Go ahead. I'll see you later.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32- How did it go?- Good.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35I'll call you tomorrow. Go ahead in.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53Did you start my novel yet?

0:34:53 > 0:34:55What's that?

0:34:55 > 0:34:58Breaking Point. Did you start that?

0:34:58 > 0:35:00No, I haven't yet, son.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02I've been preoccupied.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Well, that's good, actually.

0:35:07 > 0:35:11I want to make some changes, so...

0:35:11 > 0:35:13I'll give you the new one.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30What did he say?

0:35:30 > 0:35:35It's further bad news. The metastatic plane was too wide for radiation.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40He suggested I see a Dr Frost in New York for clinical trials.

0:35:52 > 0:35:55I got a feeler from Hello America.

0:35:55 > 0:35:56National.

0:35:56 > 0:36:01They're looking at 20 guys, but they'll be cutting down to three soon. It's a possibility.

0:36:01 > 0:36:02The salary's great.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04It's real strong.

0:36:07 > 0:36:10It'd mean moving, but I'd like to move everybody, you know?

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Renew things with Noreen.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14We've been seeing somebody.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20Let the kids start over in New York.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24Keep them away from some of the bad influences here that...

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Just get a fresh start.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30I think that would be great.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32That would be terrific.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36- Yeah. - You could rededicate yourselves,

0:36:36 > 0:36:37knuckle down.

0:36:46 > 0:36:47What's this?

0:36:49 > 0:36:51It's a Big Gulp.

0:37:00 > 0:37:04You should say, we might see some snow, that it might shift south, miss us.

0:37:04 > 0:37:09I can say it, but I sort of wanna understand it. Why is it?

0:37:09 > 0:37:12Well, it's Canadian trade winds.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16- Behind all of them?- Yeah, this will get pushed by wind out of Canada.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19- So what's it gonna do?- I don't know.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21It's a guess.

0:37:21 > 0:37:22It's wind, man.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Blows all over the place.

0:37:26 > 0:37:32For some reason, I don't know, I went back to Bolingbrook.

0:37:34 > 0:37:35I bought a three-month lesson plan.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38Hang on. Before you do that, you know,

0:37:38 > 0:37:42let's go out here and do a little stretching exercises. You got to rotate your...

0:37:42 > 0:37:43We warm up.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Then do basic focus drills.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49Stuff you never think about, like closing an eye without moving your

0:37:49 > 0:37:56face, because your face is the anchor point for your hand that allows you to focus.

0:37:59 > 0:38:03You have to keep your triangle against a lot of force.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23We do draws for a half hour, then releases.

0:38:23 > 0:38:27That's called "loosing", when you release.

0:38:40 > 0:38:43Great shot! All right!

0:38:44 > 0:38:49It's hard, but that one good shot leaves you thinking you might be catching on.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53Do you lift weights?

0:38:53 > 0:38:55- What's that?- Do you lift weights?

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Yeah.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- Cardio?- Yeah, you have to do both.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03Yeah. Are you...

0:39:03 > 0:39:05on any kind of a program?

0:39:05 > 0:39:07Yeah, our gym coach gave us a program.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11- That should be good.- Yeah.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13Yeah.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Fuck.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Hey.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19You know what would be interesting?

0:39:19 > 0:39:21- What?- We should take some pictures.

0:39:21 > 0:39:27Some shots, like... Some now, some in a month or whatever, see if you're making gains.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30- Yeah.- I've got my mom's Nikon.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31Whip your shirt off.

0:39:31 > 0:39:35- Whip my shirt off?- Yeah.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52You're shredded!

0:39:56 > 0:39:59This is great, man.

0:39:59 > 0:40:01We can compare this shit.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03That's a Nikon FM?

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Well, yeah.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07You know something about cameras?

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Yeah. I took a class at Parker.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12A couple more?

0:40:15 > 0:40:19My dad's gonna get the F3 for me if I can finish the program and maintain a B average.

0:40:19 > 0:40:23It's like a 600 camera. I'm psyched about it.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26- I could loan that to you.- Yeah?

0:40:26 > 0:40:29I could loan that shit to you if...

0:40:29 > 0:40:32you wanted it earlier.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34OK.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45This is gonna go a lot better.

0:40:45 > 0:40:50- Why?- Because I got you some bobtail arrows. They're easier.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53- Why? - Well, they're thicker at the ends.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55See?

0:40:55 > 0:40:57- They taper toward the nock. - What's the nock?

0:40:57 > 0:40:59The arrow end.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01What was I using before?

0:41:01 > 0:41:03Chested arrows.

0:41:03 > 0:41:06That guy didn't know what he was doing.

0:41:11 > 0:41:12OK.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15- Fletch it.- What?

0:41:15 > 0:41:17Fix your arrow in.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19That's the term.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Arrow makers were called fletchers.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24That's where the last name came from. Here.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26There's a little bit of a...

0:41:26 > 0:41:28It takes a little while.

0:41:28 > 0:41:29Right there, right below the nock.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33There!

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Awesome!

0:41:35 > 0:41:37OK, let's loose a few.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39Let's show our stuff.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43Aim about a half-foot above.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46- OK.- You wait till you're steady.

0:41:46 > 0:41:48- Are you aligned?- Yeah.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50OK. Let it go.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54- Fuck! - Come on, Shelly. Get your arrow.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57We probably didn't home long enough.

0:41:57 > 0:42:01That's the pause between drawing back and firing.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Let's pause a little longer.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09- What?- Nothing.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12Are you just not interested?

0:42:12 > 0:42:13Yeah.

0:42:13 > 0:42:16Yeah, you're not interested? Or, yeah, you are interested?

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Yeah, I'm not. Really.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25What was it you liked?

0:42:25 > 0:42:28- Let's think of it that way.- What?

0:42:28 > 0:42:32What interested you when you thought about archery?

0:42:32 > 0:42:35When you wanted to do it.

0:42:35 > 0:42:39I don't know. Going hunting or something.

0:42:39 > 0:42:40Hunting?

0:42:40 > 0:42:43Yeah.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46- For animals?- Yeah.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49You wanna shoot animals with arrows?

0:42:49 > 0:42:53- Yeah.- You do?- Yeah, to kill them.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56But that's not archery.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58That's hunting. That's called bowhunting.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00That's what you wanted to do? Bowhunting?

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Yeah, I saw it on TV.

0:43:04 > 0:43:09Well, I don't really wanna kill animals with arrows, so that's not going to happen.

0:43:09 > 0:43:12- We can target shoot, Shelly. - It's not fun.- It's a lot of fun.

0:43:12 > 0:43:15- You have to apply yourself. - Targets don't move.

0:43:15 > 0:43:17Well, you know, Shelly...

0:43:17 > 0:43:20- You haven't really hit one yet. - You should support me.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22I do support you.

0:43:22 > 0:43:23I support.

0:43:27 > 0:43:30All right, forget it. Take your bracer off.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32We're not shooting any more.

0:43:32 > 0:43:33OK.

0:43:51 > 0:43:54There's a chance I might be going to New York.

0:43:54 > 0:43:56A small chance.

0:43:56 > 0:43:59You think you'd like to come, maybe, if I go?

0:43:59 > 0:44:03- Yeah.- We could maybe go with Pop Pop.

0:44:03 > 0:44:04He's got some tests.

0:44:04 > 0:44:06Yeah.

0:44:50 > 0:44:52Hey.

0:44:52 > 0:44:53Hey, Mike.

0:44:53 > 0:44:58- You don't look real good, Dad. Are you OK?- Yeah.

0:44:58 > 0:44:59What are you doing out here?

0:44:59 > 0:45:01Just sitting here.

0:45:01 > 0:45:04Sometimes I just sit here and look at the house.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06You park here sometimes?

0:45:06 > 0:45:09Yeah. Sometimes.

0:45:09 > 0:45:13I just like to see you guys. I see you playing guitar up there.

0:45:13 > 0:45:14OK.

0:45:14 > 0:45:18- Sounds good.- Thanks.

0:45:18 > 0:45:21- You know, Pop Pop...- Yeah.

0:45:21 > 0:45:24- He's sick.- Mom said.

0:45:24 > 0:45:26I was thinking about that, too.

0:45:30 > 0:45:33- Why do you have a bow and arrow in there?- Oh.

0:45:33 > 0:45:36I was just out with Shelly. I'm not playing favourites.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38I just think we need to be together for a while.

0:45:38 > 0:45:41Yeah, that's OK.

0:45:41 > 0:45:44- How's your program going?- Great.

0:45:51 > 0:45:53You're gonna get that camera if you keep it up!

0:45:58 > 0:46:01Look at this house.

0:46:01 > 0:46:03Someone should be happy here.

0:46:03 > 0:46:06How did I fuck this up?

0:46:06 > 0:46:08Seriously.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10What if I remembered the tartar sauce?

0:46:10 > 0:46:13Would things be different?

0:46:13 > 0:46:18Would Robert die not thinking I'm a jerk-off, jerk-fuck?

0:46:18 > 0:46:20Don't forget the tartar sauce!

0:46:20 > 0:46:24Just call the order in, Noreen, and quit busting my you know what, OK?

0:46:24 > 0:46:27You always half-listen to what I'm saying to you!

0:46:27 > 0:46:29I heard you. Tartar sauce.

0:46:31 > 0:46:35Tartar sauce. Tartar sauce. Tartar sauce.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39Tartar sauce, tartar sauce, tartar sauce, tartar sauce.

0:46:42 > 0:46:45Man, how I'd like to put my face in there.

0:46:45 > 0:46:46Right in there.

0:46:46 > 0:46:48Tartar sauce.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51My hips are cold.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53Tartar sauce. That's when you know it's cold.

0:46:53 > 0:46:54I like eating pussy.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56Tartar sauce. A lot of guys don't. Well, maybe they do.

0:46:56 > 0:46:59Maybe that's just black guys. Tartar sauce.

0:46:59 > 0:47:03What happened to the guy who was trying to go around the world in a balloon? Did he make it?

0:47:03 > 0:47:05I should put some espionage or stolen plutonium in my novel.

0:47:05 > 0:47:08Tartar sauce. Spice it up. Neil Young. Fuck, it's cold!

0:47:09 > 0:47:12Neil Young? Why am I thinking about Neil Young?

0:47:12 > 0:47:14Neil Diamond. Neil. There's not a lot of famous Neils.

0:47:14 > 0:47:16Is this Wednesday? I wish I had two dicks.

0:47:16 > 0:47:21I thought the whole family was going to learn Spanish together this year. That never happened.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24I haven't had a Spanish omelette in a long time. Here we go.

0:47:26 > 0:47:30- Anything else?- No.

0:47:35 > 0:47:36Where is the tartar sauce?

0:47:38 > 0:47:40They were out. They apologized.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43They were cool about it.

0:47:43 > 0:47:44They were out?

0:47:44 > 0:47:49- They were out. - They were out of tartar sauce?

0:47:49 > 0:47:52I'm calling them.

0:47:52 > 0:47:54Fuck, Noreen.

0:47:54 > 0:47:57It's not about the tartar sauce. It's about you. You don't care!

0:47:57 > 0:47:59I don't care about tartar sauce!

0:47:59 > 0:48:01I'm trying to make a living for this family.

0:48:01 > 0:48:04I've got work things to think about. Tartar sauce?

0:48:04 > 0:48:07- Fuck, Noreen, are you serious? - You are so selfish!

0:48:07 > 0:48:09SHOUTING

0:48:09 > 0:48:14- I would do anything for you... - Everything you say is right. - ...as if we're not happy....

0:48:18 > 0:48:23- I'm trying to take care of the family.- You come in here, look in my face, and lied to me, Dave.

0:48:23 > 0:48:25Do you think I'm a moron? "They're out."

0:48:27 > 0:48:30We both just think it's better for the kids.

0:48:30 > 0:48:33David, sacrifice is...

0:48:36 > 0:48:39To get anything of value,

0:48:39 > 0:48:42- you have to sacrifice. - I know that, Dad. But I think if we

0:48:42 > 0:48:46continue down this road, it's going to be too detrimental for the kids. It's just too hard.

0:48:46 > 0:48:51Do you know that the harder thing to do and the right thing to do

0:48:51 > 0:48:54are usually the same thing?

0:48:54 > 0:48:58Nothing that has meaning is easy.

0:48:58 > 0:49:01Easy doesn't enter into grown-up life.

0:49:16 > 0:49:20I'm not comfortable with an 18 degree variance. Why even forecast?

0:49:20 > 0:49:22It's a technical art, not a science.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25- People get that. - Let's narrow it down, Tim.

0:49:25 > 0:49:27Dave, it's random.

0:49:27 > 0:49:28We do our best.

0:49:28 > 0:49:31A day can have that variance.

0:49:33 > 0:49:35- Dave, phone call. - Tell him to take a message.

0:49:35 > 0:49:36It's Hello America.

0:49:58 > 0:50:01- Can we shop here?- Sure.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04- Where is that?- Bendel.- All right.

0:50:17 > 0:50:22- Dad?- You know what?

0:50:22 > 0:50:24Let's go for a walk. Take a break.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26You don't like it?

0:50:26 > 0:50:29No, maybe we'll come back later. We'll just take a break.

0:50:32 > 0:50:35So how's everything going?

0:50:35 > 0:50:37- Good.- How's school?

0:50:37 > 0:50:39- Good.- Dance school?

0:50:39 > 0:50:41Good.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44You know, when I was in school,

0:50:44 > 0:50:49I guess the hardest thing was how other kids can be a little mean.

0:50:49 > 0:50:51Names and stuff.

0:50:53 > 0:50:55Do you ever get called names?

0:50:55 > 0:50:57Like what?

0:50:57 > 0:50:59I don't know, like "dummy"

0:50:59 > 0:51:01if you miss a question.

0:51:01 > 0:51:03- Or "camel toe."- Yeah.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Camel toe.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09Do you know why?

0:51:09 > 0:51:11Why what?

0:51:11 > 0:51:14Why you get called camel toe?

0:51:14 > 0:51:15Yeah.

0:51:20 > 0:51:24- Why, hon? - Because camel toes are tough.

0:51:24 > 0:51:29They can walk all over the desert and all the hot rocks. I'm tough.

0:51:33 > 0:51:34That's right.

0:51:34 > 0:51:39It's because they're tough. You ready to shop again?

0:51:45 > 0:51:48I think they make car tyres out of camel toes.

0:51:48 > 0:51:50Yeah, I think I heard that.

0:51:52 > 0:51:55I just think you're more grown-up than that other stuff.

0:51:55 > 0:51:59- I don't think I like it. - But that was sort of kid stuff.

0:51:59 > 0:52:02I like this dress. It's New York style.

0:52:02 > 0:52:04Let me see.

0:52:10 > 0:52:13Hey.

0:52:13 > 0:52:15- You like it?- I like it. Yeah.

0:52:15 > 0:52:17Do you like it?

0:52:17 > 0:52:20- Yeah, I think I do. - Do you feel comfortable in it?

0:52:20 > 0:52:22Because, you know, that's the thing.

0:52:22 > 0:52:24Yeah, it's comfy.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26You look great.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29You look all grown-up.

0:52:29 > 0:52:31OK, change. Let's get some more.

0:52:31 > 0:52:34- Really?- Sure, and then we'll go show Pop Pop some of this stuff.

0:52:58 > 0:53:02- DOOR OPENS - Pop Pop!

0:53:02 > 0:53:04Pop Pop!

0:53:04 > 0:53:07- Check this out.- That's nice, hon.

0:53:07 > 0:53:10I know. I got a lot more, too!

0:53:11 > 0:53:13Dave.

0:53:13 > 0:53:16- How are you feeling?- I'm all right.

0:53:16 > 0:53:19Mike got arrested.

0:53:19 > 0:53:21What?

0:53:21 > 0:53:23He fucked his drug counsellor's car up.

0:53:23 > 0:53:25They were on their way to a movie.

0:53:31 > 0:53:32A movie?

0:53:36 > 0:53:41Mike said he was trying to suck him off.

0:53:41 > 0:53:45Then Mike chucked a rock through his car's passenger window.

0:53:46 > 0:53:52What is this sucking and chucking rocks? I mean, what is this?

0:53:52 > 0:53:54What did the guy say?

0:53:54 > 0:53:58He said Mike tried to jack his wallet.

0:54:03 > 0:54:08What is this sucking and chucking and jacking and fucking up, son?

0:54:08 > 0:54:10He's 15 years old!

0:54:10 > 0:54:13What is this shit?

0:54:13 > 0:54:16- Where is he?- He's at home.

0:54:16 > 0:54:18What is this?

0:54:18 > 0:54:20Fuck.

0:54:25 > 0:54:30Are you ready for the doctors?

0:54:32 > 0:54:33Yeah.

0:54:36 > 0:54:40- Pow! Pow! Got you! You're dead. - I think just what he said happened, happened.

0:54:40 > 0:54:45I think the guy was trying to make a move on him, and Mike got surprised and scared.

0:54:45 > 0:54:48Hon, will you get me a pop from the pop machine?

0:54:48 > 0:54:50Can you get your pop later?

0:54:50 > 0:54:53I'm trying to send Shelly away so she doesn't have to hear this.

0:54:53 > 0:55:00This guy says that Mike tried to steal his wallet, and that's why they were fighting when the police came.

0:55:00 > 0:55:01How is he?

0:55:01 > 0:55:03He's scared. I don't know.

0:55:05 > 0:55:06I can come home.

0:55:06 > 0:55:10No, stay there and do your Hello America thing.

0:55:10 > 0:55:13- You act like...- What?

0:55:13 > 0:55:16Like Mike's in trouble cos I'm interviewing at Hello America.

0:55:16 > 0:55:18- Give me a break! - I don't have any money.

0:55:22 > 0:55:24Russ is helping anyway.

0:55:24 > 0:55:26- That dildo's what? - He's been a big help, OK?

0:55:26 > 0:55:28You can stay there.

0:55:28 > 0:55:30Fine. I'll stay here with camel toe.

0:55:30 > 0:55:32You take care of stuff! You take care of it!

0:55:32 > 0:55:34Camel toe? What are you talking about?

0:55:34 > 0:55:37I had to find out how kids taunt Shelly about that, you're let her get taunted.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39You're not paying attention to her!

0:55:39 > 0:55:42- I take care of everything around here.- I bought her new stuff.

0:55:42 > 0:55:46- I bought her brand new stuff, and she told me all kinds of stuff, so...- Don't be such a dick.

0:55:46 > 0:55:48You have her for one weekend.

0:55:48 > 0:55:50You know what, Noreen? Just...

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Fuck! Whatever.

0:55:52 > 0:55:55- Let me talk to Mike.- He's sleeping, and don't talk to me like that.

0:55:55 > 0:55:58More dildo, more fucking...

0:55:58 > 0:56:00Listen, I have to go, Noreen.

0:56:00 > 0:56:02- I'll talk to you soon.- Whatever.

0:56:04 > 0:56:08I thought you were trying to improve matters with Noreen, if not reconcile.

0:56:08 > 0:56:10I am. What did Frost say?

0:56:10 > 0:56:13He wants to speak to me in about ten minutes.

0:56:13 > 0:56:15It was cold in there.

0:56:15 > 0:56:18Would you get me a coffee, Dave? So I can warm up.

0:56:18 > 0:56:20Yeah, Dad.

0:56:20 > 0:56:22Dildo.

0:56:22 > 0:56:24Jacking.

0:56:33 > 0:56:36- Hi.- Hi. 65.

0:56:39 > 0:56:41Fuck.

0:56:43 > 0:56:44- Hey.- Hi.

0:56:44 > 0:56:47- Pop Pop went in?- Yeah.

0:56:47 > 0:56:48Great. Yeah. He wanted a coffee.

0:56:48 > 0:56:50Do you have my wallet?

0:56:53 > 0:56:56You only had a dollar.

0:56:56 > 0:56:59You should carry more money than that.

0:56:59 > 0:57:00I know.

0:57:11 > 0:57:15Well, did he say whether any more therapy could...

0:57:15 > 0:57:18No, he didn't have a different opinion than Pritch.

0:57:20 > 0:57:22There's too large a plane.

0:57:24 > 0:57:26It's a no-go.

0:57:26 > 0:57:29- Well, did he say...- He said months.

0:57:31 > 0:57:34Did he say a lot of months?

0:57:34 > 0:57:36Well, what's a lot?

0:57:36 > 0:57:39I don't know, like 12.

0:57:39 > 0:57:44Well, if he meant 12, he probably would've said a year, son.

0:57:44 > 0:57:47I think he meant three or four.

0:58:06 > 0:58:09Well, you have a big day tomorrow.

0:58:09 > 0:58:12The Hello America show.

0:58:12 > 0:58:13Yeah.

0:59:16 > 0:59:21- And here comes the grand marshal, Dave Spritzel. - Didn't his name used to be Spritz?

0:59:21 > 0:59:23Yeah, it did. But he changed it back to the original Spritzel.

0:59:23 > 0:59:27- Why the change, Ed?- Well, when you're national, there's no more up.

0:59:27 > 0:59:30So he changed it back. Like John Cougar Mellencamp.

0:59:30 > 0:59:32- He's realer now and more authentic. - Who's that with him?

0:59:32 > 0:59:34Those are the wife and kids.

0:59:34 > 0:59:36Didn't they used to have a real fucked-up relationship?

0:59:36 > 0:59:39Not any more. That's something else that changed.

0:59:39 > 0:59:43It seems Hello America with Bryant Gumbel gave them all a fresh start,

0:59:43 > 0:59:51and an increase in salary to 980,000 outside promotional fees, which puts Dave well over 1 million a year.

0:59:51 > 0:59:53That got his wife's ear, I bet.

0:59:53 > 0:59:57You bet. That buys a lot of face time. Now everything's great.

0:59:57 > 1:00:00- Did he say that? - Yeah, he told me that.

1:00:38 > 1:00:40Hello, America.

1:00:44 > 1:00:46What are your hobbies?

1:00:46 > 1:00:49Writing. Archery.

1:00:53 > 1:00:57And you don't have a degree in meteorology?

1:00:57 > 1:00:59Well, general communications.

1:00:59 > 1:01:02Well, listen. We've seen a lot of your work in Chicago.

1:01:02 > 1:01:04OK.

1:01:04 > 1:01:07We think you're great. Refreshing.

1:01:07 > 1:01:10- We love the Spritz Nipper.- Great.

1:01:10 > 1:01:15- Why don't we run some blue screen, and we'll do a walk-through on the set?- Great.

1:01:21 > 1:01:24Here's your station. We'll run some screen.

1:01:24 > 1:01:26Give me a second to set it up.

1:01:26 > 1:01:27Hi.

1:01:52 > 1:01:54Hi.

1:01:54 > 1:01:56I'm waiting for Mark. I'm running some screen.

1:01:56 > 1:01:58- Dave.- Bryant.

1:01:58 > 1:02:00- Nervous?- No.

1:02:01 > 1:02:03- Sure?- Yeah.

1:02:03 > 1:02:06You look just a little bit nervous.

1:02:06 > 1:02:07It's not nerves.

1:02:07 > 1:02:10- Other shit?- Yeah.

1:02:12 > 1:02:16Mild in the northwest. As this high-pressure

1:02:16 > 1:02:19system gives way we'll see warm temperatures in New Mexico...

1:02:19 > 1:02:24'I know it's not neurosurgery, but green screen's the one part of my job that's not really easy.'

1:02:24 > 1:02:2735 in New York with colder temperatures west to Michigan.

1:02:27 > 1:02:30'You need a sense of where put-ons will come from and a pretty strong sense of scale.'

1:02:30 > 1:02:35Travel advisories in New Orleans and Atlanta. It's pretty heavy weather...

1:02:35 > 1:02:38'I've gotten real good at it. I thought everything went over pretty well.'

1:02:41 > 1:02:43So, we'll let you know in a couple of days.

1:02:43 > 1:02:48OK. This is my father, Robert Spritzel, and my daughter.

1:02:48 > 1:02:51We're a little late for our plane so we thought we'd leave from here.

1:02:51 > 1:02:52Yeah, I'm sorry. We kept you late.

1:02:52 > 1:02:54- That's cool. - So, you've got the numbers?- Yes.

1:02:54 > 1:02:57- There's a built-in with Purina I forgot. 42,000.- OK.

1:02:57 > 1:03:02- What's a built-in?- It's a compulsory endorsement if I'm offered the job.

1:03:02 > 1:03:04- Dog food?- Yeah. Pet products.

1:03:06 > 1:03:08Dave doesn't own a pet.

1:03:08 > 1:03:10Well, I have Jackson.

1:03:10 > 1:03:13Jackson lives with your wife and kids.

1:03:16 > 1:03:18We'll let you know.

1:03:34 > 1:03:36Russ is here.

1:03:36 > 1:03:38OK. Where's Mike?

1:03:38 > 1:03:40Inside.

1:03:46 > 1:03:49- Dave.- Hi, Russ.

1:03:49 > 1:03:50He's upstairs.

1:03:50 > 1:03:52He's still pretty upset about it.

1:03:52 > 1:03:56- Did he talk about it?- Yeah.

1:03:56 > 1:03:59- To you?- He's told us what happened.

1:03:59 > 1:04:02He was with his counsellor, Don Boden. I guess he...

1:04:02 > 1:04:05'I don't really know why what happened next happened.

1:04:05 > 1:04:10'He was talking about my son, and I was taking my gloves off.'

1:04:10 > 1:04:12..Apparently, they were going to a movie...

1:04:12 > 1:04:15- What the fuck?- Why are you here? - What?- Why are you here?

1:04:15 > 1:04:17- I'm helping Noreen! - Why are you helping?!

1:04:17 > 1:04:19- Dave!- Son, Jesus.

1:04:26 > 1:04:29'Here's something that, if you want your father to think

1:04:29 > 1:04:34'you're not a silly fuck, don't slap a guy across the face with a glove.

1:04:34 > 1:04:36'Because if you do that, that's what he will think

1:04:36 > 1:04:40'unless you're a nobleman or something in the 19th century.

1:04:40 > 1:04:41'Which I'm not.'

1:04:43 > 1:04:46You can get inside OK, Dad?

1:04:46 > 1:04:47Yeah.

1:05:36 > 1:05:37"He stashed them in his computer case..."

1:05:53 > 1:05:57My mom discovered an idea known as a living funeral

1:05:57 > 1:06:00in a book she read to help her with Robert dying.

1:06:12 > 1:06:18It's where someone's family and friends gather like they might at the person's funeral,

1:06:18 > 1:06:22only, when the person's alive, so they can see everybody.

1:06:44 > 1:06:46Hey, what's up?

1:06:46 > 1:06:48- What's up?- Hey, what's the Nipper?

1:06:48 > 1:06:50- What's that? - What's the Nipper this week?

1:06:50 > 1:06:53- I don't know.- You don't know yet?

1:06:53 > 1:06:57- Come on, man.- What? I just asked you about the Nipper.

1:06:57 > 1:06:59Monday, OK? That's the... OK?

1:06:59 > 1:07:01What's your problem?

1:07:01 > 1:07:03It's February, man.

1:07:03 > 1:07:06It's cold. ..Fuck!

1:07:06 > 1:07:08Fuck you, then.

1:07:08 > 1:07:11Fuck you! Do you know what variance is?

1:07:11 > 1:07:16You think you could pick out a day a week ahead and give a realistic...

1:07:16 > 1:07:18You know? Did you know that?

1:07:18 > 1:07:20- Weatherman!- God! Fuck!

1:07:29 > 1:07:31I have kids!

1:07:31 > 1:07:33I have to go see my kids!

1:07:33 > 1:07:37You put fucking pie shit on my coat!

1:07:37 > 1:07:40I have to see my kids with pie on me, man?

1:07:40 > 1:07:42Go see your kids with shit on you!

1:07:42 > 1:07:44Hey, calm down, man!

1:08:01 > 1:08:02'Hello? Dave?'

1:08:02 > 1:08:07- What?- 'It's Mark Dersen, from Hello America.'

1:08:20 > 1:08:22- Take care.- OK.

1:08:23 > 1:08:26- Noreen.- Hi.

1:08:26 > 1:08:28Hi.

1:08:28 > 1:08:31Shelly looks nice.

1:08:31 > 1:08:33We bought that in New York.

1:08:33 > 1:08:35Yeah, I know. That's why I said it.

1:08:35 > 1:08:36It's very nice.

1:08:36 > 1:08:40Noreen...I got offered the show.

1:08:40 > 1:08:43Hello America, with Bryant Gumbel.

1:08:43 > 1:08:45Well, that's great.

1:08:47 > 1:08:49Are you gonna take it?

1:08:49 > 1:08:51I'm thinking about it.

1:08:51 > 1:08:55It's a pretty substantial salary. And, you know, the venue, it's big.

1:08:55 > 1:08:58It's a pretty big salary jump, I guess.

1:08:59 > 1:09:031.2 million all in, Noreen.

1:09:04 > 1:09:07Can we think about that?

1:09:07 > 1:09:14- What?- What that kind of change could be like for everybody.

1:09:14 > 1:09:16Mike, Shelly, you know?

1:09:18 > 1:09:20If we thought about...

1:09:20 > 1:09:22trying again.

1:09:26 > 1:09:28Dave, I'm marrying Russ.

1:09:51 > 1:09:54CAR LOCK BLEEPS

1:11:13 > 1:11:17'Accuracy equals focusing on a point.

1:11:19 > 1:11:21'Gravity pulls an inch a yard.

1:11:21 > 1:11:23'You point up.

1:11:27 > 1:11:31'But you have to factor in wind, which is the most difficult part.'

1:11:39 > 1:11:41Noreen.

1:11:47 > 1:11:50'I had to go in, anyway.

1:11:50 > 1:11:52'It was time for my speech.

1:11:59 > 1:12:02And that's what I know about Robert Spritzel.

1:12:02 > 1:12:07Forbearance, charity, wisdom.

1:12:07 > 1:12:10There are too few like him.

1:12:10 > 1:12:13And now Robert's son, David.

1:12:26 > 1:12:27Good afternoon.

1:12:32 > 1:12:34Many of you came from long distances

1:12:34 > 1:12:43and I know I speak for my mom and Noreen and my family, Mike and Shelly, when I say thank you.

1:12:46 > 1:12:48When I think of my dad,

1:12:48 > 1:12:51I think of Bob Seger's Like A Rock.

1:12:55 > 1:12:57'And then the power went out.'

1:13:08 > 1:13:15'Then, when the lights came back on, in 40 minutes, everyone had pretty much forgotten that I was talking.

1:13:17 > 1:13:19'We never finished that part of the thing.

1:13:21 > 1:13:27'So my speech was, "When I think of my dad, I think of Bob Seger's Like A Rock."

1:13:27 > 1:13:31'That's all I said at my dad's living funeral.

1:13:31 > 1:13:33'Something about Bob Seger.'

1:13:51 > 1:13:53'You've reached 2727638.

1:13:53 > 1:13:56- 'Please leave a message.' - BEEP

1:13:59 > 1:14:02'Can you give me a call back?

1:14:02 > 1:14:07'I called a couple of times Friday and I'm wondering why you haven't called me back.

1:14:07 > 1:14:10'If I need to move down on my list, look, I need to know.

1:14:10 > 1:14:14'OK? It's not "Hello, you know, whatever, Orlando." Look.

1:14:14 > 1:14:16'I'm still jacked about you, Dave.

1:14:16 > 1:14:19'I just need to hear from you. Give me a call.'

1:14:20 > 1:14:23PHONE BUZZES

1:14:28 > 1:14:30Your phone's ringing.

1:14:32 > 1:14:33I know.

1:14:36 > 1:14:39Why aren't you getting it?

1:14:40 > 1:14:42It's the Bryant Gumbel thing.

1:14:44 > 1:14:47So why aren't you getting it?

1:14:47 > 1:14:49Did you bring that stuff?

1:14:49 > 1:14:51It's by the door.

1:14:53 > 1:14:56PHONE CONTINUES BUZZING

1:14:58 > 1:15:00You should get it.

1:15:11 > 1:15:14'Fuck.

1:15:14 > 1:15:17'It was a McDonald's hot apple pie.

1:15:17 > 1:15:19'They're not kidding.

1:15:19 > 1:15:20'It was hot.'

1:15:44 > 1:15:46'The other thing that gets to people,

1:15:46 > 1:15:49'that leads to pies, I guess,

1:15:49 > 1:15:54'are these catch phrases we're required to use to single the programme out.

1:15:54 > 1:15:57'It gets under people's skin.

1:15:57 > 1:15:59'Spritz Nipper.

1:16:02 > 1:16:07'But the whole thing about all of it, all the getting hit with stuff,

1:16:07 > 1:16:10'the whole thing is, who gets hit with a fucking pie, anyway?

1:16:10 > 1:16:13'Did anyone ever throw a pie at Thomas Jefferson? Or Buzz Aldrin?

1:16:13 > 1:16:18'I doubt it. But this is like the ninth time I got...

1:16:18 > 1:16:20'Clowns get hit with pies.'

1:16:31 > 1:16:33Hey!

1:16:33 > 1:16:36- Fuck!- I'm Mike's father! Here's your shit!

1:16:45 > 1:16:47I saw you buy this at the mall on North Avenue!

1:16:47 > 1:16:49I'm telling the cops, too!

1:16:49 > 1:16:52So you can cut your crap about Mike jacking your wallet!

1:16:57 > 1:17:00He's just a kid. See?

1:17:00 > 1:17:04He looks grown, but he's just a kid.

1:17:04 > 1:17:06You fucking asshole!

1:17:11 > 1:17:18'I mean, I'll bet no-one ever threw a pie at, like, Harriet Tubman, the founder of the Underground Railroad.

1:17:18 > 1:17:20'I'll bet you a million fucking dollars.'

1:17:49 > 1:17:53'The first time I was struck with something,

1:17:53 > 1:17:58'a chicken breast from Kenny Rogers, I was standing next to a garbage pail.

1:17:58 > 1:18:03'I thought it might've been an accident, that they were throwing it out.

1:18:03 > 1:18:06'The second time, it hit me square on the chin.

1:18:06 > 1:18:08'A soft taco.

1:18:08 > 1:18:10'Then pop.

1:18:10 > 1:18:12'A falafel.

1:18:12 > 1:18:15'McNuggets.

1:18:15 > 1:18:17'Always fast food.

1:18:19 > 1:18:21'Fast food.

1:18:21 > 1:18:24'Shit people would rather throw out than finish.

1:18:24 > 1:18:29'It's easy, it tastes all right, but it doesn't really provide you any nourishment.

1:18:31 > 1:18:33'I'm fast food.'

1:18:34 > 1:18:36Hey.

1:18:36 > 1:18:38Hey.

1:18:41 > 1:18:44- Did you see him?- Yeah.

1:18:46 > 1:18:48Am I gonna get in trouble?

1:18:48 > 1:18:49I didn't do anything.

1:18:51 > 1:18:53You're not in trouble. I took care of it.

1:18:56 > 1:18:58I got on him.

1:18:58 > 1:19:00I let him know we're not messing around.

1:19:00 > 1:19:02I whaled on him.

1:19:02 > 1:19:04What?

1:19:04 > 1:19:09I caught him one clean one for sure, on the forehead and then I fucking whaled on him!

1:19:09 > 1:19:11Seriously?

1:19:11 > 1:19:15He's not going to say you stole anything, and you're not in trouble.

1:19:24 > 1:19:27- What are you eating?- Corn dog.

1:19:42 > 1:19:45You're a kid, Mike. Fuck.

1:19:45 > 1:19:47- I'm not a kid.- You are a kid.

1:19:47 > 1:19:51Don't put yourself in grown-up situations again until you're a grown-up.

1:19:51 > 1:19:53- OK.- OK?- Yeah.

1:19:55 > 1:19:57Do you want me to get you a corn dog?

1:19:57 > 1:20:00What? No.

1:20:00 > 1:20:01What do you want?

1:20:03 > 1:20:05Nothing.

1:20:20 > 1:20:22Weatherman!

1:20:30 > 1:20:32- Hey.- Hi.

1:20:33 > 1:20:35Are you all right?

1:20:35 > 1:20:37Yeah.

1:20:37 > 1:20:40I just wanted you to...

1:20:40 > 1:20:41What?

1:20:41 > 1:20:43MUSIC PLAYS

1:21:12 > 1:21:14a lead up to other things I wanted to say.

1:21:14 > 1:21:17Here's the part.

1:21:17 > 1:21:19# ..And I held firm

1:21:50 > 1:21:54- Yeah.- That's quite an American accomplishment.

1:21:54 > 1:21:55Thanks.

1:21:58 > 1:22:00Are you OK?

1:22:06 > 1:22:10I...I can't knuckle down.

1:22:10 > 1:22:14Noreen's marrying Russ. There's nothing to knuckle down on, so...

1:22:14 > 1:22:16I can't fucking knuckle down.

1:22:19 > 1:22:21Your hand...

1:22:23 > 1:22:27I just saw Mike's counsellor.

1:22:27 > 1:22:30Mike mentioned that you were gonna fix this business up.

1:22:32 > 1:22:34He's in no trouble?

1:22:36 > 1:22:37Good job.

1:22:43 > 1:22:45Your hand OK?

1:22:45 > 1:22:47It's OK.

1:22:47 > 1:22:50- You certain?- Don't worry.

1:22:50 > 1:22:54You always worry about your kids,

1:22:54 > 1:22:56no matter how old.

1:22:56 > 1:22:58There's always looking after.

1:23:10 > 1:23:13I read your book.

1:23:13 > 1:23:14Fuck.

1:23:16 > 1:23:20I was gonna do some more work on it, then I chucked it.

1:23:20 > 1:23:23- You chucked it?- Garbage.

1:23:26 > 1:23:30It's just...what I do, David.

1:23:30 > 1:23:33I've practised and I've gotten good.

1:23:33 > 1:23:35Like you and the weather business.

1:23:38 > 1:23:40But I DON'T predict it.

1:23:40 > 1:23:42Nobody does, cos it's just wind.

1:23:42 > 1:23:46It's wind. It blows all over the place! What the fuck!

1:23:54 > 1:23:56I have to go to work.

1:23:56 > 1:23:57David...

1:23:59 > 1:24:02HE SWITCHES MUSIC OFF

1:24:03 > 1:24:06This shit life...

1:24:08 > 1:24:11..we must chuck some things.

1:24:16 > 1:24:19We must chuck them

1:24:19 > 1:24:20in this shit life.

1:24:28 > 1:24:30There's always looking after.

1:24:33 > 1:24:34You have time.

1:24:41 > 1:24:42Thanks.

1:25:36 > 1:25:39'Pretty soon after Robert's living funeral,

1:25:39 > 1:25:42'we had his real one.'

1:26:37 > 1:26:39I'm sorry for your loss.

1:26:41 > 1:26:43That's a lovely thing to say to me.

1:26:45 > 1:26:47Where'd you hear that?

1:26:47 > 1:26:50His friends.

1:26:53 > 1:26:55Hey.

1:26:55 > 1:26:58I'm glad ONE of you brought an umbrella.

1:26:58 > 1:27:01I had a feeling it was going to rain today.

1:27:01 > 1:27:04You're not going to take my job, are you?

1:27:04 > 1:27:08No. I'm gonna be a cameraman for Monday Night Football.

1:27:08 > 1:27:11..Is that OK?

1:27:13 > 1:27:16Yeah. That's good.

1:27:19 > 1:27:23There are a great many of Robert's friends here, even in winter.

1:27:23 > 1:27:26I think it's because Robert was unusual.

1:27:26 > 1:27:31I think that's what brought so many of you out.

1:27:31 > 1:27:34A loving husband and father for 40 years

1:27:34 > 1:27:38and a good friend to some of you for longer.

1:27:38 > 1:27:43I'm sure that's why we appreciated and loved Robert.

1:27:43 > 1:27:45He was excellent.

1:27:45 > 1:27:47Selfless.

1:27:47 > 1:27:49Resolute.

1:27:49 > 1:27:52'I remember once

1:27:52 > 1:27:57'imagining what my life would be like, what I'd be like.

1:27:57 > 1:28:01'I pictured having all these qualities.

1:28:01 > 1:28:06'Strong, positive qualities that people could pick up on from across a room.

1:28:09 > 1:28:14'But as time passed, few ever became any qualities I actually had.

1:28:15 > 1:28:20'And all the possibilities I faced, and the sorts of people I could be,

1:28:20 > 1:28:24'all of them got reduced every year to fewer and fewer,

1:28:24 > 1:28:28'until finally they got reduced to one,

1:28:28 > 1:28:30'to who I am.

1:28:36 > 1:28:38'And that's who I am.

1:28:41 > 1:28:43'The weatherman.'

1:29:33 > 1:29:36But first, Dave Spritz has the check of our national weather.

1:29:36 > 1:29:40Thanks, Bryant. It feels like spring if you're in the northeast. Is it gonna last?

1:29:40 > 1:29:44Let's take a look. We've got a warm weather system to thank...

1:29:44 > 1:29:46Mike, you ready for school?

1:29:46 > 1:29:48- Russ?- Let's go, guys.

1:29:48 > 1:29:50Come on.

1:29:52 > 1:29:55- You're gonna get it! - Bye, Shelly.- Bye, Mom.

1:29:55 > 1:30:01..That's your national weather. I'll be back with your local focus at the bottom of the hour.

1:30:19 > 1:30:22- Hey, are you Dave Spritz?- Yeah.

1:30:22 > 1:30:24- Can I get your autograph?- Sure.

1:30:28 > 1:30:31So, is it gonna rain today?

1:30:32 > 1:30:34Who knows?

1:30:38 > 1:30:41Hey. Hello, America!

1:30:41 > 1:30:44'I've been doing the show for a few months.

1:30:44 > 1:30:46'People don't throw things at me any more.

1:30:46 > 1:30:49'Maybe because I carry a bow around.

1:30:49 > 1:30:51'I don't know.'

1:30:56 > 1:31:01'I go back to Chicago weekends, keep it steady with Mike and Shelly, come back, do the weather.'

1:31:01 > 1:31:04'So... Forecast?

1:31:04 > 1:31:06'Come on.

1:31:06 > 1:31:08'Another man's with my family.

1:31:08 > 1:31:12'Things didn't work out the way I predicted.

1:31:12 > 1:31:13'Accepting that's not easy.

1:31:15 > 1:31:17'But easy doesn't enter into grown-up life.

1:31:20 > 1:31:23'I'll take this American accomplishment.

1:31:23 > 1:31:25'That's where I live.

1:31:25 > 1:31:28'Behind Fire Brigade 47, OK.

1:31:28 > 1:31:31'But in front of SpongeBob.

1:31:33 > 1:31:35'Hello, America.'
