00:08:41.605 --> 00:08:42.979 align:center
You had me at emu.

00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:44.354 align:center
[computer chimes]

00:08:44.355 --> 00:08:45.937 align:center
[gasps] Oh, my God.

00:08:45.938 --> 00:08:47.729 align:center
We appreciate the enthusiasm, Olive.

00:08:47.730 --> 00:08:50.354 align:center
The MAPK cascade is quite fascinating.

00:08:50.355 --> 00:08:52.895 align:center
But what it does
to drug-resistant therapies

00:08:52.896 --> 00:08:54.479 align:center
is really gonna knock your socks off.

00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.437 align:center
[laughter]

00:08:56.438 --> 00:08:58.437 align:center
- I got a response.
- [gasps] Which one?

00:08:58.438 --> 00:09:00.062 align:center
Shh!

00:09:00.063 --> 00:09:02.105 align:center
[Anh] Shut up, McConnell.

00:09:02.688 --> 00:09:04.437 align:center
Dr. Tom Benton at Harvard.

00:09:04.438 --> 00:09:06.812 align:center
- I'm gonna read it later, just in case.
- [Dr. Aslan] Thank you, everyone.

00:09:06.813 --> 00:09:09.229 align:center
- See you next week.
- It's gonna be a yes.

00:09:09.230 --> 00:09:10.646 align:center
We'll see.

00:09:13.896 --> 00:09:15.562 align:center
[mimics explosion]

00:09:15.563 --> 00:09:16.813 align:center
Dr. Aslan. Am I right?

00:09:18.521 --> 00:09:21.937 align:center
I mean, Anh, you probably already have it
memorized 'cause you're a genius.

00:09:21.938 --> 00:09:23.187 align:center
I mean, you-you, too, Olive.

00:09:23.188 --> 00:09:24.854 align:center
You're both geniuses.

00:09:24.855 --> 00:09:27.020 align:center
Smart girls in the house. Whoo-whoo!

00:09:27.021 --> 00:09:30.770 align:center
Women. Smart women that I...
that I deeply respect.

00:09:30.771 --> 00:09:32.520 align:center
Are you guys hungry?

00:09:32.521 --> 00:09:34.437 align:center
Um, I have to go to a thing.

00:09:34.438 --> 00:09:35.979 align:center
All right. I'll see you later.

00:09:35.980 --> 00:09:37.437 align:center
Don't forget, you promised to help me.

00:09:37.438 --> 00:09:39.395 align:center
Because you're
such an amazing friend and--

00:09:39.396 --> 00:09:41.479 align:center
'Kay. Love you. Bye. It's gonna be a yes.

00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:42.729 align:center
She has a thing.

00:09:42.730 --> 00:09:44.312 align:center
Yeah, yeah. I-I have a thing, too.

00:09:44.313 --> 00:09:47.187 align:center
This is the time of day I usually
lie down in the fetal position,

00:09:47.188 --> 00:09:49.104 align:center
cry a little bit
and reconsider all my life choices.

00:09:49.105 --> 00:09:50.437 align:center
Whoa.

00:09:50.438 --> 00:09:52.646 align:center
[upbeat music playing]

00:10:12.188 --> 00:10:13.437 align:center
What?

00:10:13.438 --> 00:10:15.354 align:center
That's a foul.

00:10:15.355 --> 00:10:17.520 align:center
Hey. What's up?

00:10:17.521 --> 00:10:20.104 align:center
Should I be in
my molecular bio sem right now?

00:10:20.105 --> 00:10:22.229 align:center
Yes, technically,
the answer to that is yes,

00:10:22.230 --> 00:10:23.895 align:center
but this morning,

00:10:23.896 --> 00:10:26.604 align:center
Dr. Evil said that all of my data
on chimeric antigen receptors

00:10:26.605 --> 00:10:28.395 align:center
- was uninspired.
- Hence "Dr. Evil."

00:10:28.396 --> 00:10:31.145 align:center
So he's making me start all over again
and throw everything out.

00:10:31.146 --> 00:10:34.105 align:center
And on top of that, Paul dumped me.

00:10:35.521 --> 00:10:38.145 align:center
Uh, which-which Paul? Ice-skater Paul?

00:10:38.146 --> 00:10:39.729 align:center
No, puffy nips Paul.

00:10:39.730 --> 00:10:42.770 align:center
The guy you went on two dates with
and said there was no chemistry?

00:10:42.771 --> 00:10:44.187 align:center
Exactly.

00:10:44.188 --> 00:10:45.687 align:center
I had zero chemistry with him.

00:10:45.688 --> 00:10:47.312 align:center
He had so much chemistry with me.

00:10:47.313 --> 00:10:49.437 align:center
But he ghosted me,
and now I feel like shit.

00:10:49.438 --> 00:10:50.770 align:center
You know, with stuff like that,
you always--

00:10:50.771 --> 00:10:53.270 align:center
- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
- [gasps] Oh, my God.

00:10:53.271 --> 00:10:55.270 align:center
Okay. [inhales sharply]

00:10:55.271 --> 00:10:57.187 align:center
I'm having a really rough day.

00:10:57.188 --> 00:10:59.270 align:center
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

00:10:59.271 --> 00:11:00.895 align:center
- Malcolm.
- Hmm?

00:11:00.896 --> 00:11:02.562 align:center
I got an email response.

00:11:02.563 --> 00:11:04.479 align:center
Dr. Benton.

00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:05.562 align:center
Harvard.

00:11:05.563 --> 00:11:07.313 align:center
- What?
- Mm-hmm.

00:11:08.730 --> 00:11:10.313 align:center
D-Do you want me to read it?

00:11:11.396 --> 00:11:13.062 align:center
No, I can read it. I'm an adult.

00:11:13.063 --> 00:11:14.354 align:center
Oh.

00:11:14.355 --> 00:11:16.146 align:center
- Okay.
- You're good.

00:11:23.063 --> 00:11:24.145 align:center
I got you.

00:11:24.146 --> 00:11:26.145 align:center
Come on.

00:11:26.146 --> 00:11:27.937 align:center
- Get up.
- Okay.

00:11:27.938 --> 00:11:29.979 align:center
Because if he says no,
it's not that big of a deal.

00:11:29.980 --> 00:11:32.812 align:center
Like, there are plenty of other grants
and labs where I can finish my research.

00:11:32.813 --> 00:11:34.770 align:center
Maybe not as prestigious as Harvard, but--

00:11:34.771 --> 00:11:37.062 align:center
I mean, do you know how freezing
Cambridge is in the winter?

00:11:37.063 --> 00:11:38.812 align:center
It's very cold,
and I get eczema on my hands,

00:11:38.813 --> 00:11:40.145 align:center
so that's probably not even really--

00:11:40.146 --> 00:11:41.854 align:center
- He wants to meet.
- He what?

00:11:41.855 --> 00:11:43.645 align:center
He wants to meet.

00:11:43.646 --> 00:11:44.729 align:center
"Hello, Olive Smith.

00:11:44.730 --> 00:11:47.145 align:center
Thank you for recently submitting
a scientific paper to my attention.

00:11:47.146 --> 00:11:50.687 align:center
Your research on pancreatic cancer
sounds very promising.

00:11:50.688 --> 00:11:53.020 align:center
I'll be lecturing at Stanford
for the next month.

00:11:53.021 --> 00:11:55.395 align:center
Why don't we plan to chat while I'm there?

00:11:55.396 --> 00:11:58.104 align:center
- Cheers, TB!"
- [squealing excitedly]

00:11:58.105 --> 00:11:59.645 align:center
- He wants to meet.
- Okay, he wants to chat.

00:11:59.646 --> 00:12:01.645 align:center
- Yeah. He wants to chat.
- He wants to chat.

00:12:01.646 --> 00:12:03.645 align:center
Dr. Tom Benton wants to chat.

00:12:03.646 --> 00:12:06.437 align:center
Why... why does he...
why does he want to chat?

00:12:06.438 --> 00:12:07.979 align:center
I put it all there in the pdf.

00:12:07.980 --> 00:12:09.687 align:center
- No--
- There's a pdf that he read.

00:12:09.688 --> 00:12:11.770 align:center
- Why do we need to chat about it?
- No. No.

00:12:11.771 --> 00:12:12.937 align:center
Don't overthink it.

00:12:12.938 --> 00:12:14.812 align:center
Yes, no, because when I'm in my lab
with my mice,

00:12:14.813 --> 00:12:16.395 align:center
I know what I'm doing and I'm in control.

00:12:16.396 --> 00:12:18.437 align:center
It's when I have to present my ideas
to other people

00:12:18.438 --> 00:12:20.312 align:center
I stutter and I-I freeze up.

00:12:20.313 --> 00:12:22.729 align:center
I sweat. You know I have
a nervous sweating problem.

00:12:22.730 --> 00:12:24.020 align:center
You do. You should Botox it.

00:12:24.021 --> 00:12:25.104 align:center
I can't do that.

00:12:25.105 --> 00:12:26.562 align:center
Yeah, you can. I know an injector.

00:12:26.563 --> 00:12:28.395 align:center
- No, I-I can't do that.
- Oh.

00:12:28.396 --> 00:12:29.812 align:center
Yeah, you can.

00:12:29.813 --> 00:12:32.104 align:center
You just got to take
your emotions out of it.

00:12:32.105 --> 00:12:34.229 align:center
Think of it like dating, okay?

00:12:34.230 --> 00:12:36.562 align:center
You got to be aloof. Be cold.

00:12:36.563 --> 00:12:38.520 align:center
Act like you could really give a fuck.

00:12:38.521 --> 00:12:41.645 align:center
And that is when they really
start to want you.

00:12:41.646 --> 00:12:43.479 align:center
That's unbelievably unhealthy.

00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:45.270 align:center
Okay. Agree to disagree.

00:12:45.271 --> 00:12:47.437 align:center
Look, you can freak out later.

00:12:47.438 --> 00:12:50.729 align:center
Right now,
we are gonna celebrate this dub.

00:12:50.730 --> 00:12:51.895 align:center
- Okay. Okay.
- Okay?

00:12:51.896 --> 00:12:54.062 align:center
Where are we gonna go? What do you want?

00:12:54.063 --> 00:12:57.437 align:center
No, um, you're gonna...
you're gonna go to class.

00:12:57.438 --> 00:13:00.187 align:center
You can make the last hour
of your sem, okay?

00:13:00.188 --> 00:13:02.562 align:center
Don't let Dr. Evil
make you doubt yourself.

00:13:02.563 --> 00:13:04.730 align:center
Okay? You got this.

00:13:05.855 --> 00:13:08.105 align:center
Go. Go get 'em.

00:13:10.188 --> 00:13:11.520 align:center
[sighs]

00:13:11.521 --> 00:13:13.729 align:center
[gentle music playing]

00:13:13.730 --> 00:13:15.813 align:center
[birds chirping in distance]

00:13:19.313 --> 00:13:22.312 align:center
- [upbeat music playing]
- [indistinct chatter]

00:13:22.313 --> 00:13:25.145 align:center
[Anh laughing] First of all,
this condenser is totally crooked.

00:13:25.146 --> 00:13:27.687 align:center
- [Jeremy] Oh, my God. What an outrage.
- [Anh] Outrage?

00:13:27.688 --> 00:13:29.520 align:center
- Could you please help with it?
- Sure.

00:13:29.521 --> 00:13:31.312 align:center
[plaintive music playing]

00:13:31.313 --> 00:13:33.354 align:center
How is that?

00:13:33.355 --> 00:13:34.937 align:center
[clicks tongue] It's the exact same

00:13:34.938 --> 00:13:36.354 align:center
- as it was before.
- [both laughing]

00:13:36.355 --> 00:13:38.812 align:center
- You know you didn't do anything just now.
- [laughing]

00:13:38.813 --> 00:13:40.938 align:center
Hey. Okay, how's that?

00:13:41.521 --> 00:13:42.563 align:center
It's beautiful.

00:13:47.146 --> 00:13:48.520 align:center
Oh.

00:13:48.521 --> 00:13:50.021 align:center
Um...

00:13:52.355 --> 00:13:53.354 align:center
[Jeremy sighing] Shit.

00:13:53.355 --> 00:13:55.479 align:center
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- [Anh] I'm sorry. I'm--

00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:56.895 align:center
Yeah.

00:13:56.896 --> 00:13:59.479 align:center
Look, I-I-I didn't mean to, like...

00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:01.145 align:center
I just... I just thought you...

00:14:01.146 --> 00:14:02.354 align:center
[both chuckle]

00:14:02.355 --> 00:14:03.937 align:center
- I'm a moron.
- No.

00:14:03.938 --> 00:14:06.313 align:center
No, I did. I do.

00:14:07.230 --> 00:14:08.312 align:center
[Jeremy] Oh, o--

00:14:08.313 --> 00:14:11.645 align:center
Great, great, so... let's take it slow.

00:14:11.646 --> 00:14:12.979 align:center
Let's go on a date.

00:14:12.980 --> 00:14:15.770 align:center
Like, a dinner or-or-or lunch or a movie.

00:14:15.771 --> 00:14:16.855 align:center
I can't.

00:14:19.063 --> 00:14:20.520 align:center
[Jeremy] But why?

00:14:20.521 --> 00:14:22.270 align:center
I-- Now I-- Now I don't understand.

00:14:22.271 --> 00:14:23.729 align:center
Sorry, I just can't.

00:14:23.730 --> 00:14:25.729 align:center
[door opens]

00:14:25.730 --> 00:14:27.479 align:center
[kids chattering]

00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:29.395 align:center
- Hey, guys.
- Hey, how you doing?

00:14:29.396 --> 00:14:31.520 align:center
Hello.

00:14:31.521 --> 00:14:33.854 align:center
Hey. Sorry I'm late.

00:14:33.855 --> 00:14:35.479 align:center
Hey, kids.

00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.979 align:center
This is my best friend, Ms. Olive Smith,
who's gonna be helping us out today.

00:14:39.980 --> 00:14:44.770 align:center
Who's ready to create some
ionically cross-linked polymer networks?

00:14:44.771 --> 00:14:46.062 align:center
[confused murmuring]

00:14:46.063 --> 00:14:47.395 align:center
[chuckling] Okay.

00:14:47.396 --> 00:14:50.813 align:center
Who's ready to turn liquid into...

00:14:51.813 --> 00:14:52.812 align:center
[gasps]

00:14:52.813 --> 00:14:55.645 align:center
...slimy science worms?

00:14:55.646 --> 00:14:57.770 align:center
- [kids] Ew!
- [Anh] Aah! So gross.

00:14:57.771 --> 00:14:59.895 align:center
[Anh groans, laughs]

00:14:59.896 --> 00:15:02.146 align:center
[gentle music playing]

00:15:03.813 --> 00:15:05.312 align:center
- [Anh] Thanks for coming.
- [Olive] Of course.

00:15:05.313 --> 00:15:07.271 align:center
Malcolm never showed. Shocker.

00:15:08.396 --> 00:15:10.395 align:center
Well, it was nice of Jeremy to show up.

00:15:10.396 --> 00:15:12.520 align:center
And he got here even before I did.

00:15:12.521 --> 00:15:14.980 align:center
He, um, asked me out.

00:15:16.313 --> 00:15:17.395 align:center
Really?

00:15:17.396 --> 00:15:19.562 align:center
That's amazing. That's so great.

00:15:19.563 --> 00:15:20.855 align:center
I said no.

00:15:21.563 --> 00:15:22.855 align:center
What? Why?

00:15:23.855 --> 00:15:25.270 align:center
Jeremy's awesome. I don't get it.

00:15:25.271 --> 00:15:27.020 align:center
You know you have a crush on him.

00:15:27.021 --> 00:15:28.145 align:center
[Rosa] It's just girl code.

00:15:28.146 --> 00:15:30.270 align:center
Chicks before dicks, right, Ms. Anh?

00:15:30.271 --> 00:15:31.770 align:center
Exactly, Rosa.

00:15:31.771 --> 00:15:33.105 align:center
But also, don't say "dicks."

00:15:33.896 --> 00:15:35.812 align:center
Your cross-linked hydrogels today
were stunning.

00:15:35.813 --> 00:15:37.729 align:center
- You rocked it.
- Anh.

00:15:37.730 --> 00:15:38.979 align:center
Don't be crazy.

00:15:38.980 --> 00:15:41.062 align:center
I may have had a crush on him, like,

00:15:41.063 --> 00:15:43.604 align:center
a thousand years ago
for a month during exams.

00:15:43.605 --> 00:15:46.312 align:center
I was probably dehydrated
and hallucinating.

00:15:46.313 --> 00:15:48.437 align:center
Okay, it was longer than a month,
and you know it.

00:15:48.438 --> 00:15:49.770 align:center
Whatever. That's not even the point.

00:15:49.771 --> 00:15:51.770 align:center
I don't like him like that anymore. I--

00:15:51.771 --> 00:15:53.229 align:center
He's like a brother to me.

00:15:53.230 --> 00:15:54.604 align:center
That makes it even weirder, though.

00:15:54.605 --> 00:15:56.687 align:center
Anh, there's no weir-- It's not weird.

00:15:56.688 --> 00:15:57.979 align:center
- Ol.
- [stammers]

00:15:57.980 --> 00:16:00.145 align:center
Besides, I'm-I'm seeing someone.

00:16:00.146 --> 00:16:01.563 align:center
You mean, like, a therapist?

00:16:02.146 --> 00:16:05.104 align:center
What? No. Like, a-a human man.

00:16:05.105 --> 00:16:08.187 align:center
It's-it's, like, super new,
and we've just been on a couple dates.

00:16:08.188 --> 00:16:09.437 align:center
I really-- I like him.

00:16:09.438 --> 00:16:14.479 align:center
And I did not tell you about him,
because I just didn't want to jinx it.

00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:15.604 align:center
- Olive.
- Yes.

00:16:15.605 --> 00:16:19.604 align:center
You're a scientist researching
pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma,

00:16:19.605 --> 00:16:21.020 align:center
but you believe in jinxes?

00:16:21.021 --> 00:16:22.437 align:center
Yes. Mm-hmm.

00:16:22.438 --> 00:16:24.062 align:center
Big on jinxes.

00:16:24.063 --> 00:16:26.437 align:center
And I'm going on a date tomorrow night.

00:16:26.438 --> 00:16:28.312 align:center
- You have a date?
- Yes.

00:16:28.313 --> 00:16:30.354 align:center
And I will tell you all about it

00:16:30.355 --> 00:16:31.563 align:center
- afterwards.
- Mm.

00:16:32.646 --> 00:16:34.062 align:center
- [pops lips]
- Okay.

00:16:34.063 --> 00:16:36.646 align:center
Go... out with him.

00:16:37.813 --> 00:16:39.687 align:center
<i>I mean, who wants to be on a date?</i>

00:16:39.688 --> 00:16:42.270 align:center
- [squeaking]
- I'd much rather be here anyway,

00:16:42.271 --> 00:16:44.854 align:center
hanging out on a Saturday night,

00:16:44.855 --> 00:16:47.188 align:center
talking to mice.

00:16:48.271 --> 00:16:50.104 align:center
Okay. I need sugar.

00:16:50.105 --> 00:16:52.646 align:center
No one do anything cool while I'm gone.

00:16:59.980 --> 00:17:01.770 align:center
[footsteps nearby]

00:17:01.771 --> 00:17:04.020 align:center
[intriguing music playing]

00:17:04.021 --> 00:17:05.270 align:center
Shit. Shit.

00:17:05.271 --> 00:17:08.895 align:center
Shit, shit, shit, shit,
shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.

00:17:08.896 --> 00:17:11.605 align:center
Fuck. Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.

00:17:12.730 --> 00:17:13.979 align:center
Can I kiss you, please?

00:17:13.980 --> 00:17:15.188 align:center
Excuse me--

00:17:24.646 --> 00:17:25.646 align:center
[sighs]

00:17:26.313 --> 00:17:27.562 align:center
Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:17:27.563 --> 00:17:29.563 align:center
[gasps] Dr. Evil.

00:17:30.646 --> 00:17:32.520 align:center
- I'm sorry?
- Dr. Carlsen.

00:17:32.521 --> 00:17:33.937 align:center
- You kissed me.
- No.

00:17:33.938 --> 00:17:36.020 align:center
I didn't mean to do that.
That was an emergency.

00:17:36.021 --> 00:17:40.729 align:center
I was being followed by a very stubborn
Filipino woman who's gone now.

00:17:40.730 --> 00:17:42.479 align:center
Okay, what exactly is going on here?

00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:47.187 align:center
Uh, um, it's, uh, complicated,
and it doesn't actually involve you,

00:17:47.188 --> 00:17:48.812 align:center
so I'm afraid I can't talk
to you about it.

00:17:48.813 --> 00:17:49.895 align:center
I'm sorry.

00:17:49.896 --> 00:17:50.980 align:center
No, I understand.

00:17:51.813 --> 00:17:53.812 align:center
- Oh.
- I'll just go back to my office, then,

00:17:53.813 --> 00:17:55.604 align:center
prepare my Title IX complaint.

00:17:55.605 --> 00:17:57.230 align:center
- Good night.
- Uh...

00:17:58.105 --> 00:17:59.645 align:center
- Title IX?
- It's a federal law

00:17:59.646 --> 00:18:02.062 align:center
that protects against sexual misconduct
in academic settings.

00:18:02.063 --> 00:18:03.312 align:center
No, I-I know what it is.

00:18:03.313 --> 00:18:05.479 align:center
I don't see how it applies
to this situation.

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:06.562 align:center
How so?

00:18:06.563 --> 00:18:09.145 align:center
Because I asked you first
if I could kiss you.

00:18:09.146 --> 00:18:11.729 align:center
Mm. You asked,
and then you didn't wait for my consent.

00:18:11.730 --> 00:18:13.687 align:center
- I did.
- You did not.

00:18:13.688 --> 00:18:14.687 align:center
- I did.
- Mm-mm.

00:18:14.688 --> 00:18:15.646 align:center
- I didn't?
- No.

00:18:16.980 --> 00:18:19.104 align:center
Okay. I thought I...
I thought I heard you say yes.

00:18:19.105 --> 00:18:20.729 align:center
I was pretty sure that you said yes.

00:18:20.730 --> 00:18:22.187 align:center
- I didn't.
- Really?

00:18:22.188 --> 00:18:23.270 align:center
Mm-hmm.

00:18:23.271 --> 00:18:25.187 align:center
It happened very fast,
so that was my mistake.

00:18:25.188 --> 00:18:27.313 align:center
Well, that is something we can agree on.

00:18:30.021 --> 00:18:31.438 align:center
Olive Smith.

00:18:32.438 --> 00:18:34.188 align:center
There's a guy...

00:18:38.188 --> 00:18:39.187 align:center
I'm listening.

00:18:39.188 --> 00:18:43.021 align:center
Oh. Uh, there's... there's a guy that I...

00:18:44.105 --> 00:18:45.270 align:center
- Love?
- No.

00:18:45.271 --> 00:18:46.354 align:center
Maybe. I don't know.

00:18:46.355 --> 00:18:48.604 align:center
It doesn't matter, because he wants
to go out with my best friend Anh,

00:18:48.605 --> 00:18:50.104 align:center
who was just here spying on me.

00:18:50.105 --> 00:18:51.812 align:center
The stubborn Filipino woman?

00:18:51.813 --> 00:18:53.270 align:center
Exactly. And she won't go out with him

00:18:53.271 --> 00:18:55.520 align:center
unless I can convince her
that I don't have feelings for him.

00:18:55.521 --> 00:18:56.770 align:center
But you do.

00:18:56.771 --> 00:18:59.520 align:center
Right. No.
You're-you're missing the point.

00:18:59.521 --> 00:19:02.729 align:center
The only way that she will date this guy,
who is perfect for her,

00:19:02.730 --> 00:19:04.729 align:center
is if I'm dating someone else.

00:19:04.730 --> 00:19:07.645 align:center
Only there is nobody else,
so I pretended to be on a date tonight.

00:19:07.646 --> 00:19:11.104 align:center
So she came here to bust me
working in the lab alone, so I had to--

00:19:11.105 --> 00:19:14.730 align:center
Kiss the first random person you saw
in the hallway to throw her off.

00:19:15.980 --> 00:19:17.646 align:center
Without their consent.

00:19:19.646 --> 00:19:22.520 align:center
Yeah. That's correct.

00:19:22.521 --> 00:19:24.229 align:center
In hindsight, not my finest moment.

00:19:24.230 --> 00:19:26.354 align:center
Mm, maybe not.

00:19:26.355 --> 00:19:28.730 align:center
Sadly, it's not my worst.

00:19:30.646 --> 00:19:34.979 align:center
Um, so, okay, this has been... [sighs]

00:19:34.980 --> 00:19:38.270 align:center
awkward and humiliating,
which is kind of the story of my life,

00:19:38.271 --> 00:19:42.562 align:center
so I'm just gonna go crawl
into a black hole and die.

00:19:42.563 --> 00:19:44.104 align:center
Good night.

[jaunty music playing]

00:19:48.688 --> 00:19:50.355 align:center

[mice squeaking]

00:19:56.896 --> 00:19:58.605 align:center
I'll explain later.

[sighs]

00:20:06.980 --> 00:20:08.271 align:center

00:20:17.938 --> 00:20:20.104 align:center

Oh, God, I slept through my alarm.

00:20:50.855 --> 00:20:52.230 align:center
Did I miss anything important?

00:20:53.230 --> 00:20:55.354 align:center
What? Oh, God,
do I have something on my face?

00:20:55.355 --> 00:20:56.895 align:center
Oh, yeah, you got a little bit

00:20:56.896 --> 00:20:59.187 align:center
of the Antichrist's lips
smooshed all over your face.

00:20:59.188 --> 00:21:00.437 align:center
- What the hell?
- Shh.

00:21:00.438 --> 00:21:02.645 align:center
Do you two mind? I missed the last part.

00:21:02.646 --> 00:21:03.895 align:center
Oh, shut up, McConnell.

than or equal to zero. Duh.

[muttering] It's N of t, where...

00:21:08.355 --> 00:21:10.895 align:center
What could you possibly see in Dr. Evil?

00:21:10.896 --> 00:21:14.688 align:center
I mean, I get it, he's superhot,
but most serial killers are.

00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:18.562 align:center
He... he's... [stammers]

00:21:18.563 --> 00:21:20.062 align:center
nice.

00:21:20.063 --> 00:21:21.270 align:center
- Nice?
- [sighs]

00:21:21.271 --> 00:21:23.229 align:center
Do you have a brain tumor?

00:21:23.230 --> 00:21:25.520 align:center
Wait. Do I have a brain tumor?

00:21:25.521 --> 00:21:26.937 align:center
Oh, my, God.

00:21:26.938 --> 00:21:28.895 align:center
Does Malcolm know you're in love
with his archnemesis?

00:21:28.896 --> 00:21:30.104 align:center
We are not in love.

00:21:30.105 --> 00:21:32.104 align:center
It was super casual.
We went on a few dates.

00:21:32.105 --> 00:21:33.729 align:center
It was fun. I've already moved on.

00:21:33.730 --> 00:21:35.645 align:center
That is not what it looked like
Saturday night,

00:21:35.646 --> 00:21:38.230 align:center
when you had your tongue
down his throat in the hallway.

00:21:39.771 --> 00:21:42.104 align:center
- She's kidding.
- [Anh mouthing]
- [McConnell] Mm-hmm.

00:21:42.105 --> 00:21:43.604 align:center
It was just a fling.

00:21:43.605 --> 00:21:45.646 align:center
It's not serious at all.

- immediately.
- Stop.

- [McConnell] You're so lucky.
- Interesting.

00:22:00.313 --> 00:22:01.438 align:center
[Olive] Stop.

00:22:02.605 --> 00:22:03.979 align:center
- Text me back this time.

[Dr. Carlsen] Olive.

00:22:17.438 --> 00:22:19.895 align:center
Come on in. I'll be with you in a moment.

00:22:19.896 --> 00:22:23.396 align:center
Oh, that's okay. I can come back
if now is not a good time for you.

00:22:26.855 --> 00:22:29.646 align:center
I called you into my office.
Why wouldn't it be a good time?

00:22:30.896 --> 00:22:33.270 align:center
That guy seemed upset.

00:22:33.271 --> 00:22:36.562 align:center
Perhaps he was unhappy when I suggested
his proposal was derivative,

00:22:36.563 --> 00:22:39.437 align:center
fundamentally flawed and better suited
to an eighth-grade science fair

00:22:39.438 --> 00:22:40.730 align:center
than a doctoral student.

00:22:41.980 --> 00:22:44.646 align:center
Yeah, that was probably
a contributing factor.

00:22:46.730 --> 00:22:48.604 align:center
You pulled me out of my class?

00:22:48.605 --> 00:22:52.229 align:center
Yes. Dr. Hargrave's molecular biology.

00:22:52.230 --> 00:22:54.812 align:center
I assure you there is nothing
so revolutionary in his lectures

00:22:54.813 --> 00:22:57.230 align:center
that you couldn't uncover
with a cursory Wiki search.

00:22:58.313 --> 00:23:01.187 align:center
Well, Dr. Hargrave is also on
my dissertation committee,

00:23:01.188 --> 00:23:04.605 align:center
so I can assure you
his lectures are quite important to me.

00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:07.895 align:center
Oh.

00:23:07.896 --> 00:23:09.145 align:center
Then I'll be brief.

00:23:09.146 --> 00:23:10.813 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen clears throat]

00:23:13.605 --> 00:23:15.937 align:center
I accept your proposal.

00:23:15.938 --> 00:23:17.479 align:center
What proposal?

00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:19.979 align:center
To deceive your friend into believing
that I'm your love interest.

00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:22.437 align:center
- [laughs]
- That was your hypothesis, correct?

00:23:22.438 --> 00:23:24.395 align:center
That your friend will agree
to date the man

00:23:24.396 --> 00:23:26.687 align:center
that you're in love with
if she believes that you have a boyfriend?

00:23:26.688 --> 00:23:29.229 align:center
Well, I did not say
that I was in love with him, but--

00:23:29.230 --> 00:23:30.312 align:center
Then I accept.

00:23:30.313 --> 00:23:32.520 align:center
We'll have to go over
the parameters, of course.

00:23:32.521 --> 00:23:35.145 align:center
Define the possible extraneous
and confounding variables,

00:23:35.146 --> 00:23:36.729 align:center
design the experimental treatments--

00:23:36.730 --> 00:23:38.688 align:center
Uh, just why?

00:23:39.271 --> 00:23:41.437 align:center
Well, it's proper protocol
when designing an experiment.

00:23:41.438 --> 00:23:44.270 align:center
No, why are you helping me?
Why would you agree to do--

00:23:44.271 --> 00:23:47.688 align:center
I believe that there is an opportunity
for us to help each other.

00:23:51.896 --> 00:23:54.229 align:center
Dr. Fastuca, the head of my department,

00:23:54.230 --> 00:23:58.605 align:center
recently informed me that Stanford
may not be renewing my grant.

00:24:01.396 --> 00:24:03.605 align:center
Millions of dollars that I need.

00:24:04.188 --> 00:24:05.520 align:center
Why?

00:24:05.521 --> 00:24:08.813 align:center
Your work on circulating tumor cells
is groundbreaking.

00:24:12.146 --> 00:24:14.063 align:center
I read your study in <i>Nature.</i>

00:24:14.646 --> 00:24:18.395 align:center
Hmm. Well, apparently,
they consider me a flight risk.

00:24:18.396 --> 00:24:22.687 align:center
A longtime friend recently received a very
large grant for his project at Harvard.

00:24:22.688 --> 00:24:26.520 align:center
He's been trying to convince me
to leave here and join him for years.

00:24:26.521 --> 00:24:30.312 align:center
He offered me a position, and...
[sighs] I suppose word got out.

00:24:30.313 --> 00:24:31.479 align:center
Are you planning to leave?

00:24:31.480 --> 00:24:32.562 align:center
Of course not.

00:24:32.563 --> 00:24:35.854 align:center
If it wasn't for Stanford,
my study on CTC isolation and detection

00:24:35.855 --> 00:24:38.520 align:center
wouldn't be on the precipice
of a huge breakthrough.

00:24:38.521 --> 00:24:41.312 align:center
But I need those funds
to continue my research.

00:24:41.313 --> 00:24:43.020 align:center
Why can't you just tell them
that you're not leaving?

00:24:43.021 --> 00:24:45.479 align:center
I have, many times.

00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:47.854 align:center
The consensus is I have no roots here.

00:24:47.855 --> 00:24:52.729 align:center
No house, no family, not even a pet.

00:24:52.730 --> 00:24:55.395 align:center
Nothing to keep me
from running off with their money.

00:24:55.396 --> 00:24:57.270 align:center
But a serious girlfriend,

00:24:57.271 --> 00:25:00.562 align:center
one who still had a year left
of her doctoral study here,

00:25:00.563 --> 00:25:02.188 align:center
might change their minds.

00:25:03.438 --> 00:25:04.520 align:center
[sighs]

00:25:04.521 --> 00:25:06.437 align:center
[chuckling] Why don't you just
get a real girlfriend?

00:25:06.438 --> 00:25:08.604 align:center
I suppose the same reason
you don't get a real boyfriend.

00:25:08.605 --> 00:25:10.312 align:center
- Relationships are time-consuming.
- Confusing.

00:25:10.313 --> 00:25:12.062 align:center
[stammering]

00:25:12.063 --> 00:25:13.979 align:center
Right. I also don't have time
for a boyfriend.

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:15.812 align:center
That's the main reason.

00:25:15.813 --> 00:25:17.187 align:center
So I can help you deceive your friend--

00:25:17.188 --> 00:25:19.479 align:center
Sounds really bad
when you put it like that.

00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:22.895 align:center
Help your friend find...

00:25:22.896 --> 00:25:24.562 align:center
true love with this guy?

00:25:24.563 --> 00:25:26.895 align:center
That's better,
'cause now I'm, like, the hero.

00:25:26.896 --> 00:25:30.188 align:center
And you can help me convince Dr. Fastuca
to renew my grant.

00:25:31.146 --> 00:25:33.145 align:center
Are we not breaking university rules?

00:25:33.146 --> 00:25:35.645 align:center
No, I already checked
with Stanford's Code of Ethics.

00:25:35.646 --> 00:25:38.687 align:center
They allow relationships
between doctoral students and postdocs

00:25:38.688 --> 00:25:41.104 align:center
as long as they're in
completely different fields of study.

00:25:41.105 --> 00:25:43.479 align:center
I propose an end date of October 29th.

00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:45.354 align:center
That's the day the department delivers

00:25:45.355 --> 00:25:47.645 align:center
their final decision
on all grant reapplications.

00:25:47.646 --> 00:25:49.854 align:center
Which gives us one month to convince

00:25:49.855 --> 00:25:52.604 align:center
your friend and my colleagues
that we are in love.

00:25:52.605 --> 00:25:56.687 align:center
- Does that work for you?
- [laughs] Um...

00:25:56.688 --> 00:25:57.979 align:center

00:25:57.980 --> 00:25:58.979 align:center

00:31:32.396 --> 00:31:34.479 align:center
I don't know, not trying
to fail me out of school?

00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:36.687 align:center
Okay, to be fair, you're almost failing

00:31:36.688 --> 00:31:38.604 align:center
because you're out partying
every single night.

00:31:38.605 --> 00:31:41.229 align:center
Oh, wow.

00:31:41.230 --> 00:31:44.187 align:center
Okay. I am, because I am trying to deal

00:31:44.188 --> 00:31:47.854 align:center
with the overwhelming stress
of working under Dr. Evil.

00:31:47.855 --> 00:31:49.730 align:center
It's called self-care.

00:31:50.813 --> 00:31:52.520 align:center
- It's for gay guys, too.
- Okay.

00:31:52.521 --> 00:31:54.605 align:center
[lighthearted music playing]

00:31:59.730 --> 00:32:01.438 align:center
[whirring]

00:32:02.896 --> 00:32:03.896 align:center
[door opens]

00:32:08.896 --> 00:32:10.604 align:center
- Hey, guys. Hey.
- Hey.

00:32:10.605 --> 00:32:13.770 align:center
Olive, I just saw the weirdest post.
It was you and Dr.--

00:32:13.771 --> 00:32:15.895 align:center
Carlsen. They're dating.

00:32:15.896 --> 00:32:16.812 align:center
[Malcolm gags]

00:32:16.813 --> 00:32:18.312 align:center
[Jeremy] You're seriously dating Dr. Evil?

00:32:18.313 --> 00:32:20.312 align:center
Does he even have real human emotions?

00:32:20.313 --> 00:32:22.812 align:center
- See? I told you. Makes no sense, right?
- No, no, he actually does not.

00:32:22.813 --> 00:32:24.562 align:center
- Anger, maybe. Maybe.
- Maybe.

00:32:24.563 --> 00:32:25.812 align:center
Yes, he does.

00:32:25.813 --> 00:32:27.520 align:center
And yeah, we're-we're dating.

00:32:27.521 --> 00:32:30.104 align:center
We're going to the student/faculty picnic
on Friday.

00:32:30.105 --> 00:32:31.395 align:center
You should come with us.

00:32:31.396 --> 00:32:33.104 align:center
Come on a date with you and Dr. Carlsen?

00:32:33.105 --> 00:32:34.520 align:center
- And Anh. And Malcolm.
- What?

00:32:34.521 --> 00:32:37.270 align:center
What? Why? Why do I have to go?

00:32:37.271 --> 00:32:38.729 align:center
Oh, Anh, are you going?

00:32:38.730 --> 00:32:41.187 align:center
- I can maybe stop by.
- She's going.

00:32:41.188 --> 00:32:42.895 align:center
She's going.
We're all going together on Friday

00:32:42.896 --> 00:32:44.604 align:center
- to the picnic together.
- Okay.

00:32:44.605 --> 00:32:47.146 align:center
It's settled.
Okay, I'm gonna get potassium iodide.

00:32:48.521 --> 00:32:50.938 align:center
- [insects chirping]
- [dog barking in distance]

00:32:54.105 --> 00:32:56.562 align:center
Please tell me that you have
a severe online gambling problem

00:32:56.563 --> 00:32:58.062 align:center
and you're not still working.

00:32:58.063 --> 00:33:00.854 align:center
[sighs] Yeah, no, I'm going over
my presentation one more time.

00:33:00.855 --> 00:33:02.729 align:center
I have a meeting
with Dr. Benton on Wednesday,

00:33:02.730 --> 00:33:06.229 align:center
and if he's gonna offer me a spot
on his research team, I have to be...

00:33:06.230 --> 00:33:07.562 align:center
overly prepared.

00:33:07.563 --> 00:33:10.729 align:center
Well, you will be because you're amazing.

00:33:10.730 --> 00:33:13.312 align:center
Oh. Thank you.

00:33:13.313 --> 00:33:15.229 align:center
[sighs] Listen.

00:33:15.230 --> 00:33:20.145 align:center
I came in because I just wanted to say...
[inhales deeply]

00:33:20.146 --> 00:33:21.854 align:center
I forgive you. [exhales]

00:33:21.855 --> 00:33:23.270 align:center
For what?

00:33:23.271 --> 00:33:25.312 align:center
For dating the spawn of Satan
without telling me.

00:33:25.313 --> 00:33:26.729 align:center
I don't think that I have to--

00:33:26.730 --> 00:33:28.895 align:center
Ah. [shushing]

00:33:28.896 --> 00:33:31.813 align:center
No more apologies.
I'm just happy you're getting laid.

00:33:32.646 --> 00:33:35.313 align:center
I know it is rough out there
for you demisexuals.

00:33:36.063 --> 00:33:37.230 align:center
What's a demisexual?

00:33:38.396 --> 00:33:42.687 align:center
You know, like, you have to have
an emotional bond with someone before...

00:33:42.688 --> 00:33:44.270 align:center
You have to be in love to have sex.

00:33:44.271 --> 00:33:46.687 align:center
Isn't that what everyone's looking for?

00:33:46.688 --> 00:33:49.771 align:center
[Malcolm laughing]

00:33:52.980 --> 00:33:55.104 align:center
Oh, my God. Wait, you're serious.

00:33:55.105 --> 00:33:56.479 align:center
That is adorable.

00:33:56.480 --> 00:33:58.520 align:center
- No, mm-mm.
- Okay.

00:33:58.521 --> 00:34:00.895 align:center
No. [laughs]

00:34:00.896 --> 00:34:03.395 align:center
- Sorry, it's just...
- Okay.

00:34:03.396 --> 00:34:05.062 align:center
[Malcolm continues laughing]

00:34:05.063 --> 00:34:07.520 align:center
[Malcolm] Paul,
guess what Olive just said.

00:34:07.521 --> 00:34:09.605 align:center
[upbeat music playing]

00:34:10.980 --> 00:34:13.146 align:center
[lively chatter, whooping]

00:34:15.021 --> 00:34:16.230 align:center
Yeah.

00:34:18.605 --> 00:34:19.646 align:center
Thanks.

00:34:21.355 --> 00:34:22.520 align:center
[sizzling]

00:34:22.521 --> 00:34:25.020 align:center
Here you go. Enjoy.

00:34:25.021 --> 00:34:27.520 align:center
- [Malcolm] Hey. Hi.
- [Anh laughs]

00:34:27.521 --> 00:34:31.354 align:center
Seeing my advisors in social situations
makes me so uncomfortable.

00:34:31.355 --> 00:34:32.437 align:center
It's unnatural.

00:34:32.438 --> 00:34:36.979 align:center
Like, how can I trust your judgment when
I've seen you eat potato salad in shorts?

00:34:36.980 --> 00:34:39.187 align:center
- [Olive] Hmm.
- [Anh] Dr. Aslan!

00:34:39.188 --> 00:34:41.062 align:center
- Hey, Anh.
- So good to see you.

00:34:41.063 --> 00:34:42.229 align:center
I like her.

00:34:42.230 --> 00:34:44.979 align:center
I know someone who doesn't mind
seeing their work colleagues

00:34:44.980 --> 00:34:47.395 align:center
outside of the biology building.

00:34:47.396 --> 00:34:49.395 align:center
Or do you guys do it
in the lab after hours?

00:34:49.396 --> 00:34:51.395 align:center
- Oh, my God.
- [laughs] Thank God.

00:34:51.396 --> 00:34:52.479 align:center
I was really starting to think

00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:54.229 align:center
that you were spending all that time
alone with the mice.

00:34:54.230 --> 00:34:56.729 align:center
[chuckling] That would be sad.

00:34:56.730 --> 00:34:59.145 align:center
But if those mice could talk,
they would tell you about

00:34:59.146 --> 00:35:01.229 align:center
- all the hot sex I've been hav--
- [Anh] Ooh.

00:35:01.230 --> 00:35:02.437 align:center
- [Jeremy] Hey, guys.
- Hi.

00:35:02.438 --> 00:35:04.062 align:center
- You look hot.
- [Jeremy] Thank you.

00:35:04.063 --> 00:35:06.104 align:center
Like, hot, sweaty. Hot and sweaty.

00:35:06.105 --> 00:35:09.437 align:center
- Like you've been running around.
- Yeah. It's, uh, Ultimate Frisbee.

00:35:09.438 --> 00:35:10.937 align:center
Your boyfriend's team just crushed us.

00:35:10.938 --> 00:35:13.520 align:center
My boyfr-- Oh, Dr.-- Adam.

00:35:13.521 --> 00:35:15.895 align:center
Dr. Carlsen? He plays Frisbee?

00:35:15.896 --> 00:35:18.229 align:center
[chuckling] Yeah.
He's actually really good.

00:35:18.230 --> 00:35:22.104 align:center
Huh. I just can't imagine him doing,
like, joyful activities.

00:35:22.105 --> 00:35:23.187 align:center
- Oh.
- He seems more of, like,

00:35:23.188 --> 00:35:25.770 align:center
the "lie in a coffin waiting
for the dark cover of night

00:35:25.771 --> 00:35:30.020 align:center
to rise and, like, suck the life out of
an unsuspecting student" kind of person.

00:35:30.021 --> 00:35:32.729 align:center
I am, but sometimes I play Frisbee.

00:35:32.730 --> 00:35:33.980 align:center
[sighs] Okay.

00:35:34.605 --> 00:35:36.062 align:center
- Dr. Carlsen.
- Mm.

00:35:36.063 --> 00:35:38.604 align:center
I was kidding
about the whole coffin thing.

00:35:38.605 --> 00:35:40.770 align:center
You have a very creative mind, Malcolm.

00:35:40.771 --> 00:35:43.479 align:center
It's why I accepted you
on my research team in the first place.

00:35:43.480 --> 00:35:45.645 align:center
- Thank you.
- Just think what you could do with it

00:35:45.646 --> 00:35:47.937 align:center
if you had a single ounce
of self-discipline.

00:35:47.938 --> 00:35:49.645 align:center
[Jeremy sighs, mutters]

00:35:49.646 --> 00:35:52.812 align:center
So, uh, how are the nitrates?

00:35:52.813 --> 00:35:55.937 align:center
Oh, I wasn't sure they would be
in season, but they're good.

00:35:55.938 --> 00:35:58.312 align:center
You have the diet
of a 12-year-old schoolboy.

00:35:58.313 --> 00:35:59.562 align:center
It's very alarming.

00:35:59.563 --> 00:36:00.687 align:center
[Malcolm scoffs]

00:36:00.688 --> 00:36:04.395 align:center
And also, um, very charming and endearing.

00:36:04.396 --> 00:36:06.479 align:center
- Mm. Aw.
- For--

00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:07.563 align:center
Oh.

00:36:09.313 --> 00:36:11.020 align:center
- Yes.
- [Olive] Mm.

00:36:11.021 --> 00:36:13.645 align:center
- Great. Mm-hmm.
- Ooh! Sweaty all over me.

00:36:13.646 --> 00:36:14.812 align:center
[Anh] Oh, actually, you know what?

00:36:14.813 --> 00:36:17.895 align:center
You're kind of starting to burn
a little bit, so...

00:36:17.896 --> 00:36:21.187 align:center
Ol, why don't you put this
on his back, help your boyfriend out.

00:36:21.188 --> 00:36:22.854 align:center
- Oh.
- I'm just having my hot dog...

00:36:22.855 --> 00:36:24.520 align:center
- Oh, look, hot dog's gone.
- ... right now.

00:36:24.521 --> 00:36:26.395 align:center
- Wha--
- [Anh] Here.

00:36:26.396 --> 00:36:28.687 align:center
All right, there we go.

00:36:28.688 --> 00:36:30.604 align:center
Put some lotion on his back,
for God sakes.

00:36:30.605 --> 00:36:31.562 align:center
- [Anh chuckles]
- [Jeremy] Hmm...

00:36:31.563 --> 00:36:35.854 align:center
Let's l-lube you up.

00:36:35.855 --> 00:36:37.645 align:center
- Over here.
- 'Kay.

00:36:37.646 --> 00:36:40.479 align:center
[lighthearted music playing]

00:36:40.480 --> 00:36:41.770 align:center
Okay. Sorry. I panicked.

00:36:41.771 --> 00:36:43.687 align:center
Yes, you were incredibly awkward.

00:36:43.688 --> 00:36:45.145 align:center
Okay. Me?

00:36:45.146 --> 00:36:47.312 align:center
Have you ever embraced
a human being before?

00:36:47.313 --> 00:36:50.187 align:center
No. Usually, I just let their dead bodies
fall to the ground

00:36:50.188 --> 00:36:51.895 align:center
after I've sucked the life out of them.

00:36:51.896 --> 00:36:52.979 align:center
Okay.

00:36:52.980 --> 00:36:55.229 align:center
Okay, look, uh, Dr. Fastuca
is right over there.

00:36:55.230 --> 00:36:57.687 align:center
This is actually a really good opportunity
for him to see us looking,

00:36:57.688 --> 00:36:59.271 align:center
um, you know, couple-y.

00:37:00.188 --> 00:37:01.645 align:center
[laughing loudly]

00:37:01.646 --> 00:37:02.812 align:center
Whoa. What was that?

00:37:02.813 --> 00:37:05.312 align:center
I'm pretending like you said
something funny. Laugh like--

00:37:05.313 --> 00:37:06.854 align:center
- Yeah, no. I can't-- I can't--
- Just pretend like I'm saying some--

00:37:06.855 --> 00:37:08.479 align:center
- [laughing] Yes.
- I can't just laugh on command. That's--

00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:09.687 align:center
[Olive] Yes, you can.
You can laugh on command.

00:37:09.688 --> 00:37:11.437 align:center
- No, I can't laugh on--
- [Dr. Fastuca] Adam!

00:37:11.438 --> 00:37:12.562 align:center
Glad you could come out and join us.

00:37:12.563 --> 00:37:14.687 align:center
- Me, too.
- [Olive] See?

00:37:14.688 --> 00:37:15.770 align:center
- Mm-hmm.
- It's working.

00:37:15.771 --> 00:37:19.646 align:center
Okay, fine. Can you just... just put
some lotion on, please? [clears throat]

00:37:23.730 --> 00:37:26.354 align:center
You do know you have to start
actually touching me at some point?

00:37:26.355 --> 00:37:29.104 align:center
I'm evenly distributing it
so you don't get burned.

00:37:29.105 --> 00:37:31.229 align:center
Okay, just try and make it look
like you're enjoying it.

00:37:31.230 --> 00:37:32.895 align:center
Can you smile, please?

00:37:32.896 --> 00:37:34.354 align:center
Yes, I can smile.

00:37:34.355 --> 00:37:35.937 align:center
[Olive chuckles]

00:37:35.938 --> 00:37:37.520 align:center
What are they doing?

00:37:37.521 --> 00:37:38.937 align:center
I have no idea.

00:37:38.938 --> 00:37:40.937 align:center
[Olive laughing loudly]

00:37:40.938 --> 00:37:42.562 align:center
Stop doing that. It is incredibly jarring.

00:37:42.563 --> 00:37:43.895 align:center
It's called flirting.

00:37:43.896 --> 00:37:45.770 align:center
- It's very unnatural.
- Whoa. Am I interrupting something?

00:37:45.771 --> 00:37:49.479 align:center
Oh, no, I'm, uh... [clears throat]
I'm just getting some, uh, sunscreen.

00:37:49.480 --> 00:37:51.020 align:center
Yeah. Who's this?

00:37:51.021 --> 00:37:54.770 align:center
Uh, Tom, this is Olive Smith,
uh, my girlfriend.

00:37:54.771 --> 00:37:57.729 align:center
Uh, Olive, this is Dr. Tom Benton,
good friend of mine.

00:37:57.730 --> 00:37:59.145 align:center
He's visiting from Harvard.

00:37:59.146 --> 00:38:01.854 align:center
I invited him to guest-lecture
a few of my classes this quarter.

00:38:01.855 --> 00:38:04.687 align:center
They didn't offer him
a permanent position.

00:38:04.688 --> 00:38:07.187 align:center
You know, I remember graduating
summa cum laude. What were you again?

00:38:07.188 --> 00:38:08.604 align:center
In a more challenging major.

00:38:08.605 --> 00:38:09.729 align:center
- Right.
- Mm-hmm.

00:38:09.730 --> 00:38:11.813 align:center
Forgive him, Olive. Pleasure.

00:38:13.063 --> 00:38:15.645 align:center
Wait. Olive Smith,
my Wednesday 10:00 a.m.?

00:38:15.646 --> 00:38:17.062 align:center
Yes. Yeah, Dr. Benton.

00:38:17.063 --> 00:38:19.020 align:center
It's such an honor to meet you.
I'm-- Oh, sh--

00:38:19.021 --> 00:38:21.270 align:center
[Dr. Benton and Dr. Carlsen
chuckle awkwardly]

00:38:21.271 --> 00:38:24.104 align:center
Girlfriend? Adam, bro, you didn't tell me
you were dating someone.

00:38:24.105 --> 00:38:26.562 align:center
Let alone the same woman
applying to work in my lab.

00:38:26.563 --> 00:38:28.020 align:center
- Well, no, I didn't want to...
- Well, I didn't tell him...

00:38:28.021 --> 00:38:29.562 align:center
- ...you know, influence your decision.
- ...that it was your lab.

00:38:29.563 --> 00:38:30.812 align:center
- For conflict of interest.
- Yeah.

00:38:30.813 --> 00:38:32.437 align:center
Right.

00:38:32.438 --> 00:38:33.979 align:center
So, how long you two been dating?

00:38:33.980 --> 00:38:36.520 align:center
- Six months.
- Couple weeks. Oh, my God.

00:38:36.521 --> 00:38:38.562 align:center
- Oh, my God, time's a-flying.
- Yes.

00:38:38.563 --> 00:38:40.354 align:center
- [Dr. Carlsen] It is a-flying.
- [Olive] Time is a-flying

00:38:40.355 --> 00:38:43.479 align:center
- when you're in a lab all night and day.
- Mm-hmm. Fast. Yes.

00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:45.729 align:center
- [whistle blows]
- Oh, I think we are up.

00:38:45.730 --> 00:38:46.979 align:center
- You're-you're needed over--
- Yeah, so we should go.

00:38:46.980 --> 00:38:48.270 align:center
Olive, Olive, you're coming with Adam

00:38:48.271 --> 00:38:50.063 align:center
to Dr. Fastuca's cocktail party
tomorrow night, right?

00:38:51.146 --> 00:38:52.687 align:center
- No, I'm not--
- No, yes. Yes.

00:38:52.688 --> 00:38:54.437 align:center
- We are looking forward to it. We are.
- No, I can't go to that.

00:38:54.438 --> 00:38:56.020 align:center
I have the prior... the prior commitment
that I told you about.

00:38:56.021 --> 00:38:57.187 align:center
Oh, yeah, right. Yeah.

00:38:57.188 --> 00:39:00.562 align:center
That's the special guest lecture
on epigenetic modification?

00:39:00.563 --> 00:39:01.645 align:center
- Yeah, that's it.
- Mm-hmm.

00:39:01.646 --> 00:39:02.729 align:center
That's-that's where I'll be.

00:39:02.730 --> 00:39:04.812 align:center
Perfect. Yeah, because that ends at 6:00.

00:39:04.813 --> 00:39:07.437 align:center
Dr. Fastuca's cocktail party,
that starts at 7:00. Right?

00:39:07.438 --> 00:39:10.604 align:center
[chuckling] So we've got plenty of time.

00:39:10.605 --> 00:39:12.187 align:center
- Great.
- Great.

00:39:12.188 --> 00:39:13.312 align:center
- You ready, buddy?
- Mm-hmm.

00:39:13.313 --> 00:39:14.312 align:center
You got enough sunscreen on that

00:39:14.313 --> 00:39:16.354 align:center
- baby-soft skin of yours?
- No, he needs more.

00:39:16.355 --> 00:39:18.020 align:center
- Yes. [chuckles]
- See you tomorrow night, Olive.

00:39:18.021 --> 00:39:19.729 align:center
- Yeah, looking forward to it.
- Nice to meet you.
- [Dr. Carlsen clears throat]

00:39:19.730 --> 00:39:21.604 align:center
- Okay, that's--
- I'm not going to that party.

00:39:21.605 --> 00:39:23.604 align:center
- Why not? It is the--
- I'm not going to that party.

00:39:23.605 --> 00:39:26.604 align:center
It is the perfect opportunity for us to
exhibit our relationship to Dr. Fastuca.

00:39:26.605 --> 00:39:28.770 align:center
This is the entire purpose
of our arrangement.

00:39:28.771 --> 00:39:32.645 align:center
I can't be in a room
full of distinguished scholars and mingle.

00:39:32.646 --> 00:39:34.354 align:center
What if they try to talk to me?

00:39:34.355 --> 00:39:36.270 align:center
- Then you talk to them.
- [scoffs]

00:39:36.271 --> 00:39:38.145 align:center
No. That's easy for you to say.

00:39:38.146 --> 00:39:39.895 align:center
You have no problem talking to me.

00:39:39.896 --> 00:39:41.895 align:center
You don't count.

00:39:41.896 --> 00:39:43.812 align:center
- [Dr. Carlsen clears throat]
- That's not-- You know what I mean.

00:39:43.813 --> 00:39:45.730 align:center
I don't care what you think about me.

00:39:46.605 --> 00:39:48.020 align:center
In a nice way.

00:39:48.021 --> 00:39:49.770 align:center
You are a scientist at Stanford,

00:39:49.771 --> 00:39:52.312 align:center
one of the most prestigious
research universities in the country.

00:39:52.313 --> 00:39:55.270 align:center
Yeah, I'm great at science.
I'm not great at talking about it.

00:39:55.271 --> 00:39:57.354 align:center
You can handle a cocktail party.

00:39:57.355 --> 00:40:00.813 align:center
[lively chatter, laughter]

00:40:01.771 --> 00:40:04.270 align:center
It did not blend in at all.

00:40:04.271 --> 00:40:05.854 align:center
[♪ Cole Simon sings "Sidelines"]

00:40:05.855 --> 00:40:08.312 align:center
[Jeremy] But it's all about the width,
not circumference.

00:40:08.313 --> 00:40:09.895 align:center
Layering matters.

00:40:09.896 --> 00:40:13.270 align:center
It changes the entire
thermal gradient completely.

00:40:13.271 --> 00:40:15.437 align:center
It's basic thermodynamics.

00:40:15.438 --> 00:40:17.520 align:center
You're wrong.

00:40:17.521 --> 00:40:20.229 align:center
What changes the gradient
is a thinner matrix.

00:40:20.230 --> 00:40:21.812 align:center
Why are you yelling?

00:40:21.813 --> 00:40:23.937 align:center
It's deep dish or thin crust.
It's not that serious.

00:40:23.938 --> 00:40:25.520 align:center
- [Malcolm scoffs]
- What?

00:40:25.521 --> 00:40:29.104 align:center
Pizza is the true intersection
of art and science.

00:40:29.105 --> 00:40:30.229 align:center
- [knocking at door]
- I agree.

00:40:30.230 --> 00:40:31.895 align:center
Oh, you agree with that?

00:40:31.896 --> 00:40:33.437 align:center
- [knocking continues]
- Yeah, I'll get it.

00:40:33.438 --> 00:40:35.104 align:center
It's not my house, but that's fine.

00:40:35.105 --> 00:40:37.354 align:center
The top layer gets cold,
then that makes the bottom layer cold,

00:40:37.355 --> 00:40:39.229 align:center
and it's a chain reaction
all the way to the--

00:40:39.230 --> 00:40:41.020 align:center
- [Malcolm] Oh.
- [argument continues indistinctly]

00:40:41.021 --> 00:40:42.645 align:center
- Oh, hello, Anh.
- Oh.

00:40:42.646 --> 00:40:46.021 align:center
Showing up to your girlfriend's place
empty-handed. That is a choice.

00:40:46.813 --> 00:40:47.813 align:center
May I?

00:40:49.271 --> 00:40:51.188 align:center
Yes, come on in.

00:40:54.271 --> 00:40:56.020 align:center
Olive, your boyfriend's here.

00:40:56.021 --> 00:40:57.104 align:center
Malcolm.

00:40:57.105 --> 00:40:58.313 align:center
Hi.

00:40:59.938 --> 00:41:01.480 align:center
Hi.

00:41:03.521 --> 00:41:05.396 align:center
You look, um...

00:41:07.021 --> 00:41:09.229 align:center
This can really only go one of two ways.

00:41:09.230 --> 00:41:10.604 align:center
Uh, nice.

00:41:10.605 --> 00:41:12.187 align:center
You look... you look very nice.

00:41:12.188 --> 00:41:13.355 align:center
Thank you.

00:41:13.938 --> 00:41:15.479 align:center
Hey.

00:41:15.480 --> 00:41:17.187 align:center
You guys should stay and hang out.

00:41:17.188 --> 00:41:18.270 align:center
- Have a drink with us.
- Um...

00:41:18.271 --> 00:41:19.313 align:center
They should?

00:41:20.313 --> 00:41:22.562 align:center
I mean...
[unenthusiastically] yeah, they should.

00:41:22.563 --> 00:41:23.979 align:center
No, we should get going.

00:41:23.980 --> 00:41:25.854 align:center
- Yeah.
- Aw.

00:41:25.855 --> 00:41:28.146 align:center
Look, it's already open.
You can have one drink.

00:41:28.730 --> 00:41:30.354 align:center
Let's get to know your boyfriend a little.

00:41:30.355 --> 00:41:31.479 align:center
Yeah!

00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:33.145 align:center
- Cheers.
- Whoa, that's low.

00:41:33.146 --> 00:41:34.855 align:center
This is so fun.

00:41:37.355 --> 00:41:39.271 align:center
- [someone clears throat]
- [Olive] Okay.

00:41:44.146 --> 00:41:45.521 align:center
[Olive sighs]

00:41:46.813 --> 00:41:48.937 align:center
Hi. I'm Adam.

00:41:48.938 --> 00:41:51.312 align:center
Yeah, I know who you are, Dr. Carlsen.

00:41:51.313 --> 00:41:52.770 align:center
Oh.

00:41:52.771 --> 00:41:54.812 align:center
Natalie Lazotti?

00:41:54.813 --> 00:41:56.562 align:center
You were on
my dissertation committee last year.

00:41:56.563 --> 00:41:57.729 align:center
You failed my proposal.

00:41:57.730 --> 00:41:59.145 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Oh, right.

00:41:59.146 --> 00:42:00.562 align:center
Natalie. How are you?

00:42:00.563 --> 00:42:03.104 align:center
I had to stay on campus all summer
and completely redo it.

00:42:03.105 --> 00:42:05.020 align:center
- [Malcolm scoffs]
- All my research.

00:42:05.021 --> 00:42:06.229 align:center
Took three months.

00:42:06.230 --> 00:42:08.645 align:center
I never got to go home and see my family.

00:42:08.646 --> 00:42:10.520 align:center
But look, here you are
in the same program,

00:42:10.521 --> 00:42:14.395 align:center
so congratulations
on your fortitude and persistence.

00:42:14.396 --> 00:42:15.480 align:center
Apparently, it paid off.

00:42:16.063 --> 00:42:17.645 align:center
Our family dog died that summer.

00:42:17.646 --> 00:42:18.770 align:center
[Malcolm sighing] Oh.

00:42:18.771 --> 00:42:20.146 align:center
Pickles.

00:42:21.271 --> 00:42:22.938 align:center
We got him when I was eight.

00:42:24.313 --> 00:42:27.062 align:center
[crying] I never even got a chance to...

00:42:27.063 --> 00:42:28.396 align:center
to say goodbye.

00:42:28.980 --> 00:42:30.313 align:center
Well, that's just bad luck.

00:42:31.521 --> 00:42:32.562 align:center
[sobbing]

00:42:32.563 --> 00:42:33.645 align:center
Okay, we're gonna head out.

00:42:33.646 --> 00:42:34.730 align:center
- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

00:42:35.813 --> 00:42:37.438 align:center
- [Olive] Quickly.
- [Dr. Carlsen] Mm-hmm.

00:42:41.063 --> 00:42:42.520 align:center
[dog barks in distance]

00:42:42.521 --> 00:42:43.938 align:center
[door locks click]

00:42:46.980 --> 00:42:48.730 align:center
I think that went pretty well.

00:42:50.521 --> 00:42:51.938 align:center
A girl was sobbing.

00:42:52.938 --> 00:42:54.812 align:center
You do know you fail
more student proposals

00:42:54.813 --> 00:42:56.479 align:center
than any other committee member, right?

00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:58.395 align:center
There is an actual poll.

00:42:58.396 --> 00:42:59.729 align:center
You won.

00:42:59.730 --> 00:43:01.313 align:center
Not in the good way.

00:43:05.521 --> 00:43:07.521 align:center
[lilting music playing]

00:43:14.855 --> 00:43:18.270 align:center
You know, you are gonna have to actually
talk to me tonight if this is gonna work.

00:43:18.271 --> 00:43:20.729 align:center
I mean, maybe you could've
told Natalie that

00:43:20.730 --> 00:43:22.479 align:center
in a nicer, more supportive way.

00:43:22.480 --> 00:43:24.687 align:center
This is a PhD program, not a preschool.

00:43:24.688 --> 00:43:27.479 align:center
She's gonna get inundated with feedback
she doesn't like for the rest of her life.

00:43:27.480 --> 00:43:30.020 align:center
But do you have to crush people's souls
to motivate them?

00:43:30.021 --> 00:43:32.062 align:center
Some people don't respond to that.

00:43:32.063 --> 00:43:34.604 align:center
I mean, you have to know
how you're perceived on campus.

00:43:34.605 --> 00:43:35.895 align:center
Yes, and I couldn't care less.

00:43:35.896 --> 00:43:38.604 align:center
And maybe if your friends spent less time
worrying about how they're perceived

00:43:38.605 --> 00:43:41.812 align:center
and more about their work,
they wouldn't be such mediocre scientists.

00:43:41.813 --> 00:43:43.354 align:center
- And maybe you're a dick.
- Wha--

00:43:43.355 --> 00:43:45.145 align:center
Ah.

00:43:45.146 --> 00:43:46.437 align:center
Good evening, Olive.

00:43:46.438 --> 00:43:47.520 align:center
I'm so glad you could join us.

00:43:47.521 --> 00:43:48.729 align:center
- Hi, Dr. Fastuca.
- How are you...

00:43:48.730 --> 00:43:50.187 align:center
- [groaning] Eugene?
- [bones crunching]

00:43:50.188 --> 00:43:51.437 align:center
- Adam.
- [Dr. Carlsen] Mm-hmm.

00:43:51.438 --> 00:43:52.479 align:center
- Please come in.
- Thank you.

00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:53.562 align:center
- Come in.
- Good to see you.

00:43:53.563 --> 00:43:56.479 align:center
Dr. Keeney has been dying
to speak to you all night.

00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:57.812 align:center
- Oh, he ha-- Uh...
- Yes, he's right over there.

00:43:57.813 --> 00:44:00.729 align:center
- [Dr. Keeney] Dr. Carlsen!
- [Dr. Carlsen] Excuse me.

00:44:00.730 --> 00:44:03.395 align:center
- Um, hey. Nice to see you.
- How is the research coming?

00:44:03.396 --> 00:44:05.770 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Oh, slow and steady.
You know how it goes.

00:44:05.771 --> 00:44:08.105 align:center
- [indistinct conversations]
- [light, jazzy music playing over stereo]

00:44:09.938 --> 00:44:12.313 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Uh, excuse me.
I'll be right back. [clears throat]

00:44:13.896 --> 00:44:17.437 align:center
Okay, would you just stop eating
for one second and-and hear me out?

00:44:17.438 --> 00:44:20.229 align:center
I did not imply that you were
a mediocre scientist.

00:44:20.230 --> 00:44:21.812 align:center
Oh, so just my friends, then?

00:44:21.813 --> 00:44:23.854 align:center
Sorry not all of us can win a Nobel Prize.

00:44:23.855 --> 00:44:26.437 align:center
Okay, that is not what I meant,
and you are being completely irrational.

00:44:26.438 --> 00:44:29.020 align:center
Mm, I'm mediocre and irrational now?

00:44:29.021 --> 00:44:30.729 align:center
Am I immature, too?

00:44:30.730 --> 00:44:31.812 align:center
Is this--

00:44:31.813 --> 00:44:32.979 align:center
- Does this feel--
- Am I immature?

00:44:32.980 --> 00:44:34.937 align:center
- Does this feel mature to you, Olive?
- Yeah, it does, actually. Yeah.

00:44:34.938 --> 00:44:36.520 align:center
- I feel very mature right now.
- A room full of adults that's used for--

00:44:36.521 --> 00:44:38.104 align:center
- Mm-hmm. Uh-huh. Yeah. What's the matter?
- Hey, Dr. Aslan is on her way.

00:44:38.105 --> 00:44:40.687 align:center
You two cannot keep your hands
off each other.

00:44:40.688 --> 00:44:43.354 align:center
- First at the picnic, and now here.
- Oh. Oh.

00:44:43.355 --> 00:44:45.687 align:center
I am not used to seeing
this side of you, Adam.

00:44:45.688 --> 00:44:47.812 align:center
- [Dr. Carlsen] I know.
- Normally, you're so--

00:44:47.813 --> 00:44:48.937 align:center
Arrogant and unapproachable?

00:44:48.938 --> 00:44:50.104 align:center
- Socially awkward?
- [Dr. Carlsen] Mm-hmm.

00:44:50.105 --> 00:44:52.354 align:center
I would call him reserved.

00:44:52.355 --> 00:44:53.854 align:center
You should hear what
his grad students call him,

00:44:53.855 --> 00:44:57.354 align:center
but I guess I just can see past that

00:44:57.355 --> 00:45:01.229 align:center
through the bitter, harsh,
cold, unfeeling exterior

00:45:01.230 --> 00:45:03.395 align:center
- to the-- [laughs]
- Ha-ha. Just kidding. Just kidding.

00:45:03.396 --> 00:45:05.312 align:center
- To the soft, squishy center.
- Yes.

00:45:05.313 --> 00:45:07.687 align:center
- Yeah.
- Okay, so how did you two get together?

00:45:07.688 --> 00:45:09.687 align:center
I would love to hear this story.

00:45:09.688 --> 00:45:12.020 align:center
Oh, it was not really that interesting.

00:45:12.021 --> 00:45:13.312 align:center
I, uh... I asked her out

00:45:13.313 --> 00:45:14.937 align:center
- for a cup of coffee and--
- No.

00:45:14.938 --> 00:45:16.520 align:center
- There's more to it than that.
- No? More than coffee?

00:45:16.521 --> 00:45:18.770 align:center
Yeah. Should I tell them?
Don't be embarrassed. It's funny.

00:45:18.771 --> 00:45:19.854 align:center
- Really?
- Yeah.

00:45:19.855 --> 00:45:21.813 align:center
- I think we'd all love to hear it, right?
- Yeah.

00:45:22.563 --> 00:45:24.895 align:center
I was working late one night in the lab,

00:45:24.896 --> 00:45:28.645 align:center
and then I, um... I heard this screaming
coming from Adam's office,

00:45:28.646 --> 00:45:31.145 align:center
so I... I rush down the hallway,
I look in there,

00:45:31.146 --> 00:45:34.063 align:center
and there he is, he's shrieking.

00:45:34.938 --> 00:45:37.604 align:center
- I don't think I was shrieking, Olive.
- Oh, he was shrieking.

00:45:37.605 --> 00:45:39.354 align:center
- Was I shriek-- Really?
- [Olive] Yes.

00:45:39.355 --> 00:45:42.895 align:center
And he was, like, crouched down in
the corner, like, frightened and shaking

00:45:42.896 --> 00:45:44.687 align:center
because there was a spider on his desk.

00:45:44.688 --> 00:45:46.104 align:center
No.

00:45:46.105 --> 00:45:48.437 align:center
- Spider?
- Adam, you're afraid of spiders?

00:45:48.438 --> 00:45:50.145 align:center
- No, I'm not afraid of spiders.
- He is.

00:45:50.146 --> 00:45:51.937 align:center
No, no, um, I think it was more of a yell

00:45:51.938 --> 00:45:53.729 align:center
- of surprise than--
- No, it was pure fear.

00:45:53.730 --> 00:45:55.354 align:center
- Pure fear? Wow.
- He's absolutely terrified of them.

00:45:55.355 --> 00:45:58.312 align:center
He... he even sleeps
with a little silk cap so they don't crawl

00:45:58.313 --> 00:45:59.604 align:center
- into your hair at night.
- [Dr. Carlsen] Well, that is ridiculous.

00:45:59.605 --> 00:46:00.562 align:center
- No, it's--
- Isn't it?

00:46:00.563 --> 00:46:01.562 align:center
- Don't you think that's--
- Well, you do it.

00:46:01.563 --> 00:46:04.187 align:center
- People have phobias, babe. It's fine.
- Right.

00:46:04.188 --> 00:46:06.854 align:center
I caught it for him. I let it go outside.

00:46:06.855 --> 00:46:08.645 align:center
It was not... [whispers] very big.

00:46:08.646 --> 00:46:10.229 align:center
- [laughs]
- And then I came back in,

00:46:10.230 --> 00:46:11.687 align:center
- and he wiped his tears...
- Mm-hmm.

00:46:11.688 --> 00:46:14.562 align:center
...and then asked me out for coffee
to thank me for saving him.

00:46:14.563 --> 00:46:16.770 align:center
Wow. Brave and smart.

00:46:16.771 --> 00:46:19.270 align:center
- You really hit the jackpot, my friend.
- [Dr. Carlsen] I did. Yes.

00:46:19.271 --> 00:46:21.895 align:center
She's very... very creative.

00:46:21.896 --> 00:46:23.520 align:center
- [Olive] Mm-hmm.
- Speaking of creative,

00:46:23.521 --> 00:46:25.562 align:center
I'd love to hear more about your project.

00:46:25.563 --> 00:46:28.229 align:center
Ah, come on, Tom.
It's a party, not a chalk talk.

00:46:28.230 --> 00:46:29.812 align:center
Let her just enjoy herself.

00:46:29.813 --> 00:46:32.062 align:center
We're surrounded by the brightest
and best minds in the industry here.

00:46:32.063 --> 00:46:34.188 align:center
[chuckles] I mean,
what else are we gonna talk about?

00:46:35.396 --> 00:46:37.771 align:center
Olive, you have the floor.

00:46:39.021 --> 00:46:40.688 align:center
- Please.
- Yeah. Go for it.

00:46:41.355 --> 00:46:43.770 align:center
[Dr. Benton] Everyone...
Hey, kill that music.

00:46:43.771 --> 00:46:44.980 align:center
[music stops]

00:46:47.938 --> 00:46:49.063 align:center
Hello.

00:46:50.063 --> 00:46:52.188 align:center
Um, I...

00:46:54.646 --> 00:46:58.145 align:center
Okay. Uh, so... [inhales deeply]

00:46:58.146 --> 00:47:02.229 align:center
Pancreatic cancer is one of
the most aggressive, deadliest cancers,

00:47:02.230 --> 00:47:06.187 align:center
with very poor prognosis,
and early detection is key,

00:47:06.188 --> 00:47:09.937 align:center
but it is incredibly hard
to diagnose at curable phase.

00:47:09.938 --> 00:47:12.104 align:center
But we do have very effective
screening tools,

00:47:12.105 --> 00:47:13.937 align:center
like magnetic resonance imaging,

00:47:13.938 --> 00:47:16.479 align:center
that have proven quite successful
for diagnosis.

00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:18.687 align:center
Yes, but-but that is expensive

00:47:18.688 --> 00:47:22.395 align:center
and often not useful,
due to the position of the pancreas.

00:47:22.396 --> 00:47:25.437 align:center
But biomarkers, specifically blood--

00:47:25.438 --> 00:47:27.645 align:center
This is well-worn territory.

00:47:27.646 --> 00:47:32.312 align:center
Multiple translational research studies
have explored noninvasive biomarkers,

00:47:32.313 --> 00:47:36.521 align:center
and none, alone or in combination,
are superior to CA 19-9.

00:47:37.271 --> 00:47:41.604 align:center
True, yes, but, um,
CA 19-9 can be unreliable

00:47:41.605 --> 00:47:44.312 align:center
due to its lack of expression
in five percent of the population--

00:47:44.313 --> 00:47:45.520 align:center
Unreliable?

00:47:45.521 --> 00:47:46.729 align:center
[chuckling] Ridiculous.

00:47:46.730 --> 00:47:50.479 align:center
Nothing even comes close to it
in terms of sensitivity and specificity.

00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:52.271 align:center
Why pancreatic cancer?

00:47:53.355 --> 00:47:54.354 align:center
Sorry?

00:47:54.355 --> 00:47:57.812 align:center
Uh, look, that's actually irrelevant
and, honestly, invasive.

00:47:57.813 --> 00:47:59.812 align:center
Olive, you don't have to speak to that.

00:47:59.813 --> 00:48:01.937 align:center
Well, personal connection
is what separates

00:48:01.938 --> 00:48:04.770 align:center
the good scientists from the great,
wouldn't you say?

00:48:04.771 --> 00:48:07.145 align:center
You really think you need to have
a personal connection

00:48:07.146 --> 00:48:09.729 align:center
to want to cure cancer, Tom?

00:48:09.730 --> 00:48:12.729 align:center
No, there-there's...
there's no personal connection.

00:48:12.730 --> 00:48:15.729 align:center
I just, um, enjoy being challenged.

00:48:15.730 --> 00:48:18.729 align:center
Well, I hope you also enjoy
being disappointed.

00:48:18.730 --> 00:48:20.729 align:center
- [partygoer scoffs] Harsh.
- [others murmuring]

00:48:20.730 --> 00:48:22.813 align:center
[somber music playing]

00:48:27.563 --> 00:48:29.271 align:center
I'm gonna use the bathroom.

00:48:34.063 --> 00:48:35.854 align:center
- [Dr. Carlsen] Nice.
- [scoffs]

00:48:35.855 --> 00:48:37.688 align:center
- [Olive] Excuse me.
- Oh.

00:48:44.605 --> 00:48:46.187 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Olive. Olive, wait.

00:48:46.188 --> 00:48:48.354 align:center
- Where are you going?
- No, I'm going home. I'm sorry.

00:48:48.355 --> 00:48:50.229 align:center
Okay, well, let me take you.

00:48:50.230 --> 00:48:52.562 align:center
- No, stay with your friends.
- They're not my friends.

00:48:52.563 --> 00:48:55.187 align:center
They're professional colleagues
that I have to interact with.

00:48:55.188 --> 00:48:58.229 align:center
- Plea-- Can you just let me drive you?
- No, I want to walk. It's not far.

00:48:58.230 --> 00:49:00.479 align:center
Go back to your cocktail party. I'm fine.

00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:02.229 align:center
I'm not gonna let you walk home alone.

00:49:02.230 --> 00:49:04.895 align:center
- I don't want to talk, Adam.
- Great.

00:49:04.896 --> 00:49:06.520 align:center
I hardly ever want to talk.

00:49:06.521 --> 00:49:08.437 align:center
To anyone.

00:49:08.438 --> 00:49:10.729 align:center
I sounded like I didn't know
what I was talking about.

00:49:10.730 --> 00:49:12.270 align:center
- No, you didn't.
- No, yes, I did.

00:49:12.271 --> 00:49:15.979 align:center
I know what I want to say.
I can't... say it.

00:49:15.980 --> 00:49:18.855 align:center
- I get overwhelmed. I sweat.
- Well, you can't tell.

00:49:20.271 --> 00:49:22.604 align:center
Okay. Wow. That is a lot of, um...

00:49:22.605 --> 00:49:24.729 align:center
But, look, you told
the spider story really well.

00:49:24.730 --> 00:49:26.187 align:center
It was very charming.

00:49:26.188 --> 00:49:27.937 align:center
That's different.
That doesn't mean anything.

00:49:27.938 --> 00:49:29.104 align:center
I was just taunting you.

00:49:29.105 --> 00:49:31.145 align:center
Yeah, no, I got that. Thank you.

00:49:31.146 --> 00:49:34.020 align:center
Oh, Dr. Keeney,
"I hope you enjoy being disappointed."

00:49:34.021 --> 00:49:35.812 align:center
Yeah, I'm addicted to it.

00:49:35.813 --> 00:49:37.187 align:center
That's why I'm a woman in science.

00:49:37.188 --> 00:49:39.104 align:center
See, you just need to be more like Keeney.

00:49:39.105 --> 00:49:41.937 align:center
Carry yourself with the confidence
of a very mediocre white man.

00:49:41.938 --> 00:49:43.063 align:center
[Olive chuckles]

00:49:46.063 --> 00:49:48.187 align:center
- [Olive] I'm not crying, by the way.
- [Dr. Carlsen] Oh, I know.

00:49:48.188 --> 00:49:49.937 align:center
They're those expired contacts.

00:49:49.938 --> 00:49:51.938 align:center
Yeah, I really need to--

00:49:54.438 --> 00:49:56.520 align:center
That was you?

00:49:56.521 --> 00:49:58.480 align:center
In the lab bathroom two years ago?

00:49:59.605 --> 00:50:01.104 align:center
Wow, you really are blind.

00:50:01.105 --> 00:50:03.562 align:center
[chuckling] I can't believe that was you.

00:50:03.563 --> 00:50:05.062 align:center
[gentle music playing]

00:50:05.063 --> 00:50:09.229 align:center
You really calmed me down before
the most important interview of my life.

00:50:09.230 --> 00:50:11.395 align:center
You belong here. You just had to hear it.

00:50:11.396 --> 00:50:13.895 align:center
[indistinct chatter and laughter]

00:50:13.896 --> 00:50:15.271 align:center
Um...

00:50:16.980 --> 00:50:19.187 align:center
You know, for the optics.

00:50:19.188 --> 00:50:20.980 align:center
- Right?
- Right.

00:50:24.021 --> 00:50:26.020 align:center
I lied to everyone

00:50:26.021 --> 00:50:30.062 align:center
about my personal connection
to the research.

00:50:30.063 --> 00:50:31.895 align:center
I-I do.

00:50:31.896 --> 00:50:33.188 align:center
I know.

00:50:34.771 --> 00:50:37.229 align:center
You're passionate and incredibly driven.

00:50:37.230 --> 00:50:39.563 align:center
That comes from somewhere.

00:50:45.896 --> 00:50:49.730 align:center
My mom died from pancreatic cancer
when I was 15.

00:50:51.855 --> 00:50:53.521 align:center
I am so sorry.

00:50:54.938 --> 00:50:56.105 align:center
Thank you.

00:50:57.521 --> 00:50:59.229 align:center
And your father?

00:50:59.230 --> 00:51:04.104 align:center
I didn't know him,
and I had no other family, so...

00:51:04.105 --> 00:51:07.438 align:center
went into foster care
and got out of there at 16.

00:51:12.688 --> 00:51:14.730 align:center
She's my mom.

00:51:18.105 --> 00:51:20.562 align:center
I didn't get enough time with her.

00:51:20.563 --> 00:51:22.104 align:center
Olive, I can't imagine.

00:51:22.105 --> 00:51:23.937 align:center
That must have been so hard.

00:51:23.938 --> 00:51:25.729 align:center
[Olive] I was a unique kid.

00:51:25.730 --> 00:51:28.687 align:center
I mean, I memorized the periodic table
just for fun.

00:51:28.688 --> 00:51:30.437 align:center
- [chuckling] Mm, that's not--
- It is fun.

00:51:30.438 --> 00:51:31.937 align:center
No one would give it a chance.

00:51:31.938 --> 00:51:33.645 align:center
- Mm.
- When my mom died,

00:51:33.646 --> 00:51:37.271 align:center
I lost the one person in the whole world
who believed in me.

00:51:38.605 --> 00:51:42.521 align:center
When she was gone, I was just
completely alone until I met Anh.

00:51:43.521 --> 00:51:45.438 align:center
That's why this is so important to you.

00:51:46.188 --> 00:51:49.395 align:center
This fake dating, it's for Anh.

00:51:49.396 --> 00:51:51.604 align:center
[upbeat music playing in house nearby]

00:51:51.605 --> 00:51:55.980 align:center
Yeah, she's the only family I have,
and I would do anything for her.

00:51:57.105 --> 00:51:58.395 align:center
I should kiss you.

00:51:58.396 --> 00:51:59.730 align:center
What?

00:52:00.313 --> 00:52:02.062 align:center
Your friends, they're watching
from the balcony.

00:52:02.063 --> 00:52:03.687 align:center
- [Olive stammers]
- Yeah, I could-- Yeah.

00:52:03.688 --> 00:52:04.813 align:center
[all gasping, exclaiming]

00:52:05.771 --> 00:52:08.063 align:center
- [Malcolm] Oh... my God.
- [Jeremy] Okay.

00:52:11.855 --> 00:52:13.563 align:center
He's starving.

00:52:17.521 --> 00:52:19.605 align:center
[gentle music playing]

00:52:25.688 --> 00:52:26.688 align:center
[softly] Okay.

00:52:32.188 --> 00:52:33.645 align:center
Good night.

00:52:33.646 --> 00:52:35.146 align:center
Uh, good night.

00:52:41.188 --> 00:52:42.562 align:center
[squeaking]

00:52:42.563 --> 00:52:44.520 align:center
- Dude, you're killing me.
- [door opens]

00:52:44.521 --> 00:52:46.687 align:center
Your "hanging from a wire" genes
are genetically modified.

00:52:46.688 --> 00:52:48.437 align:center
You're not supposed to be good at this.

00:52:48.438 --> 00:52:49.979 align:center
[Dr. Benton] I thought
I might find you here.

00:52:49.980 --> 00:52:52.105 align:center
Hi, Dr. Benton.

00:52:53.188 --> 00:52:56.270 align:center
I'm so sorry that I left
the party abruptly.

00:52:56.271 --> 00:52:59.562 align:center
I did not give a good explanation
of my work.

00:52:59.563 --> 00:53:02.645 align:center
I know our meeting is Wednesday,
but I read your research.

00:53:02.646 --> 00:53:04.604 align:center
And while it really does show
a lot of promise--

00:53:04.605 --> 00:53:07.104 align:center
You don't want to fund it.
You don't have to explain. It's fine.

00:53:07.105 --> 00:53:08.687 align:center
No.

00:53:08.688 --> 00:53:10.604 align:center
I need to hear more about the specifics.

00:53:10.605 --> 00:53:13.979 align:center
What techniques you're using,
what challenges you foresee.

00:53:13.980 --> 00:53:15.854 align:center
When you have the proper time to prepare.

00:53:15.855 --> 00:53:17.854 align:center
Okay. Well, thank you so much, Dr. Benton.

00:53:17.855 --> 00:53:20.479 align:center
I can present something to you
later this week.

00:53:20.480 --> 00:53:23.605 align:center

- [Olive sighs]
- What was that?

01:08:39.355 --> 01:08:41.270 align:center
Uh, like, someone upstairs.

01:08:41.271 --> 01:08:42.771 align:center
Huh.

01:08:44.271 --> 01:08:45.813 align:center
Hi. Um...

01:08:46.896 --> 01:08:48.188 align:center
Hi.

01:08:49.938 --> 01:08:51.895 align:center
Uh, how are you feeling about today?

01:08:51.896 --> 01:08:55.229 align:center
Good. Uh, you know, I wish I was dead,
but other than that, good.

01:08:55.230 --> 01:08:57.437 align:center
No, you're gonna be great.

01:08:57.438 --> 01:08:58.645 align:center
You got your script ready?

01:08:58.646 --> 01:09:00.062 align:center
- Your slides?
- Yeah.

01:09:00.063 --> 01:09:01.520 align:center
Got the blazer for your sweat?

01:09:01.521 --> 01:09:03.520 align:center
I taped little maxi pads under the pits.

01:09:03.521 --> 01:09:04.687 align:center
Little trick of the trade.

01:09:04.688 --> 01:09:06.479 align:center
Genius.

01:09:06.480 --> 01:09:08.729 align:center
Uh... oh, uh, what time is
your presentation?

01:09:08.730 --> 01:09:11.437 align:center
It's in an hour. Thankfully, it overlaps
with the keynote address,

01:09:11.438 --> 01:09:13.687 align:center
so probably only a handful
of people will be there.

01:09:13.688 --> 01:09:16.854 align:center
Anh and Jeremy, maybe some random tourists
who wander into the wrong room.

01:09:16.855 --> 01:09:17.895 align:center
And me.

01:09:17.896 --> 01:09:19.729 align:center
[sighs] You're coming?

01:09:19.730 --> 01:09:20.812 align:center
Yeah, of course.

01:09:20.813 --> 01:09:23.855 align:center
I have to give this little talk first,
but then I'm gonna head straight over.

01:09:25.313 --> 01:09:26.313 align:center
Okay.

01:09:27.938 --> 01:09:28.937 align:center
Uh, speaking of which,

01:09:28.938 --> 01:09:30.313 align:center
- I got to get going, so, um...
- Okay.

01:09:32.730 --> 01:09:34.645 align:center
- Break a leg.
- Well, I wish.

01:09:34.646 --> 01:09:36.354 align:center
Then I wouldn't have to give this talk.

01:09:36.355 --> 01:09:37.687 align:center
Hey.

01:09:37.688 --> 01:09:39.604 align:center
Just remember why you're doing it.

- Olive. Hey.
- Hi, Dr. Benton.

01:10:22.896 --> 01:10:25.229 align:center
- I'm looking forward to this.
- Me, too. Thank you.

01:10:25.230 --> 01:10:27.020 align:center
Thank you so much.

01:10:32.438 --> 01:10:33.687 align:center
Good afternoon, everyone.

01:10:33.688 --> 01:10:38.229 align:center
Uh, thank you for coming to my discussion
on noninvasive, affordable detection tools

01:10:38.230 --> 01:10:41.855 align:center
for pancreatic cancer
using blood biomarkers.

01:10:44.980 --> 01:10:47.021 align:center
- Um...
- [feedback squeals]

[takes deep breath]

01:10:53.063 --> 01:10:56.770 align:center
I recently read a story
where a doctor diagnosed a woman

01:10:56.771 --> 01:10:58.687 align:center
with only six months to live.

01:10:58.688 --> 01:11:01.646 align:center
He told her to quickly marry
a research scientist.

01:11:03.313 --> 01:11:06.145 align:center
He said, "This won't cure you,
but it will make six months feel like

01:11:06.146 --> 01:11:07.729 align:center
a really long time."

01:11:07.730 --> 01:11:09.020 align:center
[laughter]

01:11:09.021 --> 01:11:11.104 align:center
[gentle, uplifting music playing]

01:11:11.105 --> 01:11:14.687 align:center
[exhales] Okay.
Uh, so I'll begin by discussing

01:11:14.688 --> 01:11:18.687 align:center
solid adenocarcinoma neoplasm
of the pancreas.

01:11:18.688 --> 01:11:21.562 align:center
By targeting RAF signaling,
we can identify neoplasm of the pancreas.

01:11:21.563 --> 01:11:24.020 align:center
Altering the genetic makeup
of my test mouse, I've seen

01:11:24.021 --> 01:11:26.770 align:center
that blood biomarkers can aid
in early detection.

01:11:26.771 --> 01:11:29.105 align:center
[applause]

01:11:31.605 --> 01:11:35.270 align:center
Ms. Smith, I'm Dr. Sethi, and this is
my colleague Dr. Sargis from Yale.

01:11:35.271 --> 01:11:37.354 align:center
- Excellent presentation.
- Thank you so much.

01:11:37.355 --> 01:11:40.020 align:center
You're on the brink
of some fascinating discoveries.

01:11:40.021 --> 01:11:42.020 align:center
Thank you. I appreciate it.

01:11:42.021 --> 01:11:43.105 align:center
[Dr. Benton] Wow.

01:11:43.896 --> 01:11:45.604 align:center
Fantastic work, Olive.

01:11:45.605 --> 01:11:47.604 align:center
- You've given me a lot to think about.
- Okay.

01:11:47.605 --> 01:11:50.437 align:center
- I'll be in touch very soon, okay?
- Yeah. Thank you.

01:11:50.438 --> 01:11:51.937 align:center
- [Anh] Ooh!
- [clapping]

01:11:51.938 --> 01:11:53.979 align:center
You fucking crushed that.

01:11:53.980 --> 01:11:55.895 align:center
Oh, the part about
mucinous cystic neoplasms...

01:11:55.896 --> 01:11:57.354 align:center
You did so good.

01:11:57.355 --> 01:11:59.437 align:center
Thrilling.
Seriously, I was on the edge of my seat.

01:11:59.438 --> 01:12:01.104 align:center
[sighs] Thank you guys.

01:12:01.105 --> 01:12:03.270 align:center
[gentle music playing]

01:12:03.271 --> 01:12:04.812 align:center
Will you give me a sec?

01:12:04.813 --> 01:12:06.605 align:center
- [Anh] Yeah.
- [Jeremy] Mm-hmm.

01:12:07.938 --> 01:12:09.437 align:center
You did great.

01:12:09.438 --> 01:12:10.729 align:center
How are the pits?

01:12:10.730 --> 01:12:12.937 align:center
- Um, they're a little damp.
- Mm-hmm.

01:12:12.938 --> 01:12:14.729 align:center
- How did your talk go?
- Oh, yeah, fine.

01:12:14.730 --> 01:12:16.438 align:center
It's nothing important.

01:12:17.438 --> 01:12:18.812 align:center
You were the keynote speaker?

01:12:18.813 --> 01:12:20.645 align:center
Eh. It's not a big deal.

01:12:20.646 --> 01:12:22.395 align:center
I'm pretty sure that's a very big deal.

01:12:22.396 --> 01:12:24.688 align:center
How did you make it here in time?
Our speeches overlapped.

01:12:25.646 --> 01:12:27.104 align:center
I talk fast.

01:12:27.105 --> 01:12:29.520 align:center
[Anh] Hey, we're all going
to the reception, right?

01:12:29.521 --> 01:12:30.812 align:center
I already scoped it out.

01:12:30.813 --> 01:12:32.687 align:center
Mini lobster rolls, free drinks.

01:12:32.688 --> 01:12:34.145 align:center
- Yes. Will you hold this for me?
- Yeah?

01:12:34.146 --> 01:12:35.895 align:center
I've had to pee since slide 17a.

01:12:35.896 --> 01:12:37.563 align:center
- Okay.
- Thank you.

01:12:38.563 --> 01:12:40.854 align:center
How does a student
who's not even a postdoc

01:12:40.855 --> 01:12:43.020 align:center
get picked to speak at a panel at SBD?

01:12:43.021 --> 01:12:45.145 align:center
[woman] I guess if you're dating
the keynote speaker,

01:12:45.146 --> 01:12:48.020 align:center
you can present
your mediocre abstract, too.

Hey.

01:13:02.980 --> 01:13:06.437 align:center
Anh and Jeremy said
they were gonna get in line at the...

01:13:06.438 --> 01:13:07.770 align:center
- bar.
- Okay.

01:13:07.771 --> 01:13:10.395 align:center
What... what's wrong?

01:13:10.396 --> 01:13:11.520 align:center
What? Nothing.

01:13:11.521 --> 01:13:13.021 align:center
Olive.

01:13:15.021 --> 01:13:16.895 align:center
Um...

01:13:16.896 --> 01:13:19.979 align:center
I overheard some people saying
that the only reason I gave a talk

01:13:19.980 --> 01:13:23.646 align:center
is because I'm dating the keynote speaker.

01:13:24.813 --> 01:13:26.521 align:center
Which is probably true.

01:13:27.313 --> 01:13:29.062 align:center
Well, no, it's not.

01:13:29.063 --> 01:13:32.770 align:center
You're fake-dating the keynote speaker.

01:13:32.771 --> 01:13:33.937 align:center
[chuckles softly]

01:13:33.938 --> 01:13:36.604 align:center
Hey, you're here
because you deserve to be here.

01:13:36.605 --> 01:13:38.646 align:center
Don't let some jealous assholes
make you doubt that.

01:13:40.396 --> 01:13:41.895 align:center
Let's get out of here.

01:13:41.896 --> 01:13:44.020 align:center
What? You don't have to mingle
and schmooze

01:13:44.021 --> 01:13:45.812 align:center
and do keynote speaker things?

01:13:45.813 --> 01:13:47.937 align:center
- No, I keynote-spoke.
- [chuckles]

01:13:47.938 --> 01:13:49.354 align:center
Come on.

01:13:49.355 --> 01:13:51.438 align:center

01:13:53.813 --> 01:13:55.979 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Mm.

01:13:55.980 --> 01:13:58.562 align:center
[Olive] Thank you for everything.

01:13:58.563 --> 01:14:01.812 align:center
I really could not have gotten through
that presentation without your help.

01:14:01.813 --> 01:14:04.605 align:center
You did all the hard work.
I just gave you a few pointers.

01:14:07.313 --> 01:14:09.520 align:center
Well...

01:14:09.521 --> 01:14:13.062 align:center
here's to our last fake date
as a fake couple.

01:14:13.063 --> 01:14:14.355 align:center
Wait. Last date?

01:14:15.105 --> 01:14:17.146 align:center
October 29th. It's this Monday.

01:14:18.730 --> 01:14:20.229 align:center
Right. Yeah.

01:14:20.230 --> 01:14:21.563 align:center
Wow, uh...

01:14:22.980 --> 01:14:26.020 align:center
Uh, we could have gone
somewhere a little, uh, nicer.

01:14:26.021 --> 01:14:28.187 align:center
- What?
- [both laughing]

01:14:28.188 --> 01:14:30.812 align:center
You don't love food
moving around your head?

01:14:30.813 --> 01:14:32.229 align:center
[both laughing]

01:14:32.230 --> 01:14:34.270 align:center
How do you even know what anything is?

01:14:34.271 --> 01:14:36.812 align:center
You don't, and that's the fun part.

01:14:36.813 --> 01:14:38.020 align:center
[Dr. Carlsen] Oh, that's the fun part.

01:14:38.021 --> 01:14:39.104 align:center
- [Olive] Mm-hmm.
- [Dr. Carlsen] Wow.

01:14:39.105 --> 01:14:40.396 align:center
You're such a rebel.

01:14:45.188 --> 01:14:47.729 align:center
- How is it? Hmm?
- It's good.

01:14:47.730 --> 01:14:50.480 align:center
- [laughing] You are a terrible liar.
- Well...

01:14:53.563 --> 01:14:55.687 align:center
Do you think we were
convincing enough as a couple

01:14:55.688 --> 01:14:57.896 align:center
to get Dr. Fastuca to release your funds?

01:14:58.938 --> 01:15:00.479 align:center
Yeah.

01:15:00.480 --> 01:15:02.271 align:center
Yeah, I think we were. I do.

01:15:03.063 --> 01:15:05.687 align:center
Mm! How do we break up?

01:15:05.688 --> 01:15:07.645 align:center
Have a dramatic fight in public?

01:15:07.646 --> 01:15:10.562 align:center
[sucks teeth] I mean, whatever it is,
I'm sure everyone will assume

01:15:10.563 --> 01:15:14.063 align:center
- it's Dr. Evil's fault, right?
- They will.

01:15:20.146 --> 01:15:22.980 align:center
You know I didn't set out
to be a villain, right?

01:15:24.105 --> 01:15:26.729 align:center
No one teaches you how to be a mentor.

01:15:26.730 --> 01:15:28.355 align:center
But I'm not a tyrant.

01:15:29.480 --> 01:15:30.729 align:center
Not like my advisor.

01:15:30.730 --> 01:15:32.312 align:center
He was a sadist.

01:15:32.313 --> 01:15:35.770 align:center
He did some terrible things
just for the joy of it.

01:15:35.771 --> 01:15:37.020 align:center
Like what?

01:15:37.021 --> 01:15:38.896 align:center
[inhales deeply]

01:15:40.021 --> 01:15:42.855 align:center
Arbitrary, impossible deadlines.

01:15:44.646 --> 01:15:46.812 align:center
Stolen credit.

01:15:46.813 --> 01:15:50.188 align:center
Students pitted against each other
just for his amusement.

01:15:51.271 --> 01:15:53.271 align:center
Your basic psychological warfare.

01:15:54.438 --> 01:15:56.229 align:center
Why didn't anyone report him?

01:15:56.230 --> 01:15:59.229 align:center
He was short-listed for a Nobel Prize.

01:15:59.230 --> 01:16:00.770 align:center
Twice.

01:16:00.771 --> 01:16:02.479 align:center
He had powerful friends in high places.

01:16:02.480 --> 01:16:04.271 align:center
He could make or break your career.

01:16:05.105 --> 01:16:10.104 align:center
And I think that somewhere deep down...

01:16:10.105 --> 01:16:12.105 align:center
we felt like...

01:16:14.230 --> 01:16:16.230 align:center
...we signed up for it.

01:16:18.730 --> 01:16:20.354 align:center
We deserved it.

01:16:20.355 --> 01:16:22.813 align:center
[plaintive music playing]

01:16:30.271 --> 01:16:32.271 align:center
You did not deserve that.

01:16:35.980 --> 01:16:38.771 align:center
I'm so sorry that
that happened to you, Adam.

01:16:42.688 --> 01:16:46.230 align:center
You weren't invited to speak here
because people think you're my girlfriend.

01:16:47.563 --> 01:16:49.813 align:center
Tom saw the potential in you.

01:16:51.188 --> 01:16:54.645 align:center
The work you presented is important,

01:16:54.646 --> 01:16:58.688 align:center
it is rigorous, and it is brilliant.

01:17:01.730 --> 01:17:02.730 align:center
[Olive chuckles]

01:17:05.563 --> 01:17:07.312 align:center
Do you want some?

01:17:07.313 --> 01:17:09.520 align:center
Of course. Of course I want some.

01:17:09.521 --> 01:17:10.979 align:center
